Now i know there are many people that have posted similar msg's and thread's and what not but now its my turn to add my five cents worth of opinion to an already hot topic.


Regardless of the fact that the DEV's wont read it or will but not care or answer or what ever im gonna have a rave anyway's. What's the topic i hear you ask?, Rare loot and its disfunctionnaliy.


Ok here goes, Im one piece away from having a full set of Bounty Hunter armor to craft into mando, So i sit down and read up on the forums at what's involved, Now i know that im proly gonna get things abit wrong and misunderstand a few things, but here's things as i see it. I find out that you need binary liquids and some other things to make mando i think ok np what's the deal there. i read a thread that said its a .001% chance drop rate and people have spent over a year in DWB with out a single one dropping. Now this get's me thinking I have spent a good 1-2 mounths gathering all the items i need for a suite of R.I.S fighting of jedi that camp spawn spots so i dont have to pay a high price for the components looting countless gurk king's for a breath of fresh air and nothing else. But i finnaly get my suite after payng a good sum of money to a armor smith to craft the thing for me, feeling quite happy with my self about hte fact i have had my time rewarded with a good suite of armor i turn my attention to the next set of armor on my list id like to attain.


After reading alot of posts and complaints about the rarity of the Mando armor im lead to believe that the Dev's although tryng thier best to keep everyone happy are completely out of touch with their customer's, tell you the truth i dnt think they listen to us at all. Lets just do a small synopsis of what's in volved shall we. 1stly we need all 10 pieces of Bounty Hunter armor dropped by cl85 silver bar elite black sun. ok these are a rare span so some time is involved in finding them. Now im no jedi so ill need a sizable group to kill em of, for argument sakes lets make this group a group of 8 ppl. ok these things are a 1/30 chance of dropping ok np so if i dnt get any double parts lets say i kill 300 black sun with my group of 8 ppl i should have all 10 parts. but then no one else has any so we need to kill more if they want some but will leave that be for now. Then we need to get as i understand it 10 items of Binary liquid and 10 items of that other stuff. that's 20 items to get in death watch bunker that have a drop rate of .001 or 1/10000 that's an outstanding 200000 kills if they indeed drop at one in every 10000 but they dont do they becuse its a lottery, i still need my 8 ppl to help out cause there is no way i can kill them solo. then we need to find us a crafter to craft the armor. now it is rumored that if the crafter gets killed that all the parts in his inv get deleted? though i could be mistaken.


Now just reading over that had me thinking that this although highly sort after is not worth the effort in fact time and effort versus reward is highly unballanced here because in the end we still get decay on our nice new suite of armor. and we only get one anti decay kit (which by now we surely have after all that effort) so we can only adk one part of our nice 10 pice suite. Here's the my opinion if the dev's never intended for many people to have items of this nature then they should never have implimented them, I strongly feel that If you put in the time and effort to get something of this nature you should be rewarded. Why not make the bl and ?? a repeatable quest item make the quest hard but not impossible. at least that way reward versus effort is indeed rewarded.


So there you have it its only my 5 cents worth the dev's wont listen and im sure some one will correct all the mistakes ive made in this post and argue simatics quote the rarity of the items in the movies or what the dev's have already said about it, to which i say i dont care its not about continuety its about people putting in hughe efforst to be rewarded with nothing. As i have not put in the effort yet im not sure i will though i may do you never know. I just would like to see things alittle bit more accesable is all fair and fair alike im not sayng that we should all be running around in mando just that time and effort should be rewarded.
