Nothing official but I too have run mission after mission without any success. I can say that I've done over 50 as well.
I've done them from player cities and from the Nashal starport.

The Aakuans haven't been nerfed...
but YOU have.
Yes, YOU. Because the devs, God, and my cat all hate you personally. With a deep, abiding, heartfelt passion.
Luck, you say?! Don't be ridiculous. You went an entire night without any loot! That's just... freaky, dude!
Besides... my cat wouldn't lie to me.

the entire games loot has been nerfed...
every high lvl creature/human npc no longer drops anything better than crappy slicing tools and cash...
if you are very lucky you will get SEAs from npc bounties.... but thats it...
even double gold boss mobs... <------crap loot
this is an issue that has to be dealt with. no one has the time to hunt all day and kill dozens if not hundreds of these npcs for a few good loot drops.
i understand they dont want everyone running around with +25 skill tapes, but geez... if i kill a lvl 85 double gold boss mob (30k+ham)nighsister elder i want something better that 236 credits!!! if i kill 20 of them(just did... and it took a decent amount of time...) i want something better than some crappy food and a delicate trigger assembly.

The Devs are retarded, you can nerf some of the extremely unbalanced drops, but not all of the loot drops.

this might just be me, but i loot more stuff when i'm by myself vs. in a group.that may just be coincidence though.

im not having a problem with the aakuan drops lately, just having trouble FINDING them. wild spawns of 12-15 82s used to spawn all every 200m between atlantea and bastion, but ive been going over the better part of the entire planet and havent found but one good spawn.
on a note for fixing that issue, does your group have to be near you for them to count for higher spawn missions? or can i join a guild grind group and go find huge missions while they are busy?

Yes as you can see on these forums, these drops get nerfed on a daily basis - apparently only to some though, go figure.

i was running BH missions yesterday, from about 10 missions i looted
CA Artisan Exp +14, Gen Mel Speed +7
4x Bh armour schemes (helmet,left bracer,right bicep,belt)
1x 'good' crystal
1x stack of clasps
10x smuggler tools
And a Guildie was doing akuaan missions (all champion missions lvl 80+) from a player city
In about 2 hours got 2 nice CA and a nice AA (as well as a few rings,belts,robes and other crap)
everytime i read this forum you get at least a couple of threads titled 'are akuaans nerfed?' or 'Has loot been nerfed'
In my opinion the loot rate has not changed one bit since the CU
sometimes you are lucky, sometimes your not
There is probably some underlying cause, maybe the loot table only drops so much decent loot within a set period, so if its a busy time, with lots of people looting, your chances are going to be less.
Maybe everytime you log in a variable is set that effects your loot chance
Maybe its just luck of the draw (this is what i suspect)
I know its really annoying to go loot hunting for a few hours and get nothing, but thats the way it goes. Don't give up trying, you'll get something good eventually
