I'll say this, since the word about aakuan missions got round there have been very few farstar AFK looters at the cave. Apart from the dope who was there last night AFK but forgot that you need negative aakuan faction for them to auto attck u


To the OP: try to think ahead of the game, once you find out about a new loot system or area, get there quick. This rule paid dividends for me during the loot revamp. People on the trade forums were clammering for the new loot posters, Valley View, Freedom etc. I found out where they spawned best and looted about 15 in 30 minutes play. With instant sales on the trade forums, I sold out in 15 minutes and made 8,000,000! All for 45 minutes' work


Try for places like the Marauder cave, or even marauder missions on endor. The first marauder mission I did last night dropped a +10 Gen Ranged acc/speed AA. The purple "named" mobs on Dantooine have started dropping good stuff again, the CL111 mobs. Last night our group got 2 "quality" crystals from them.

I havent noticed any kind of slow down on loot from Aa'kuan missions.

Of course, their drops were never great.


Are you sure? or did you go 3hrs without a drop?


OP What you talking about... was this in patch notes?

Red named say something?

LOL!!!


You know what you are calling a nerf

is actually called bad luck.


Ill give you some free tips...

Kill only the Followers and Keepers

all the others drop nothing!!!

I have 25 jars of spice from the stupid Champions,

always agroing me and wasting my time

while I could be killing the Followers.. AHH

I dont want those stupid SEA things either

If im gonna be uber l33t, its gonna be from my

own skills, i get from the boxes!


I also know that your CL80-82 missions are a waste of time!

Did you know that CL75 drop just as often... well actually MORE

because you are killing more/time.


Ohh well...


I love "the sky is falling" threads

They make me laugh

Champions actually have a higher drop rate than the others.... and they drop only AA's.... I dont see why you are saying to kill only the keepers and followers when the Defenders and Sentinels drop CA's. If the Keepers and Followers do as well, then why not just kill everything? I don't see why you are all complaining or saying do this, do that, just kill them all they all have about the same drop rate except for the champions which everyone says seem to drop AA's more often.


If you really wanna know something I believe that all npc's that are lvl 70+ have the same chance to drop attachments. You guys go out and farm your aakuan missions for a few hours and loot one or two attachments. In the same time period I'm out killing Nightsisters and DJK and looting attachments just as often as you. Or for example the other day I went out to kill Sith Shadows to loot those frequency datapads, I looted 2 SEA's from those guys also.


So if you think Aakuans are the best for looting SEA's I believe you are mistaken. I haven't seen any difference in Aakuans, Nightsisters, Marauders, etc. All these NPC's have about the exact same drop rate for these attachments. You can just kill whichever you prefer. I myself like to kill Nightsisters because they drop the occasional crystal as well. The Sith Shadows that are spawning now on Dathomir in big groups (pirates, outlaws, thugs, lvl 75-77) are very plentiful, respawn fast, come in large groups, and drop SEA's just as good and just as often as your precious Aakuans.


So stop crying and saying something got nerfed because you had bad luck and didn't loot anything. Things have changed in this game, especially the loot. It comes in streaks and you can kill 100 Marauders, 100 Aakuans, 100 Nightsisters, 100 Sith Shadows, and you might not loot ANY attachments. Or you could go out and take 1 Marauder mission and get lucky and loot 2 attachments from the same mission... it's just random. I have tried these Aakuan missions and I found it VERY boring and I didn't loot ANY attachments at all after killing maybe close to 100 Aakuans. So I decided to just go back and kill more Nightsisters and Dark Jedi Knights, I get plenty of attachments like this and it's way more fun than driving back and forth on a desolate planet like Talus killing boring NPC's like Aakuans. I just looted a Double-Bladed LS Accuracy +12 CA actually.


I dunno why I made such a big reply, just letting you all know it really doesn't matter what you're killing you have about the same chances of looting an SEA from any kind of high level NPC, you dont have to kill Aakuans. Just because they drop SEA's in a cave doesn't mean they are the SEA gods.

Thanks for the long post actually.


Allplayer info I greatly appreciate.


I will have to disagree, and I believe that 90% of the active loot wh-ore community would as well
that the drop rates are NOT the same for all mobs.


I also 'used' to enjoy hunting NS, it was all I did...
but then i realized that I am dieing occasionally
and getting hardly anything for it...
now, if the good sister witches actually dropped quality crystals, i would be there.


And Ive killed thousands.,.. never an SEA

Yeah, "Auukans nerfed".


I'll give you some advice. Each time that you don't get some "ph4t l3wt" or whatever you 10 year olds call it, don't make a lame post filled with LIES and SPELLING ERRORS. Just log off, delete your character, and go back to playing Diablo 2.


Making posts like that just makes you look like an idiot.

how can you say they are not the same when people on this board are saying all the time that they kill 500 Aakuans without looting anything. go kill marauders and you will have the EXACT same luck as you do with aakuans. you will go hundreds of kills without looting anything or you may loot one attachment every 50-100 kills. or maybe you loot 4 in a row then none for a few hundred kills. trust me man its all the same. i went and killed sith shadows and looted 2 tapes while killing around 50 or more of them. ITS ALL THE SAME. go try and see for yourself. instead of killing aakuan camps go to endor and do marauder missions, you will loot the same kinds of tapes in the same patterns. go out and kill nightsisters nonstop and you will loot a few attachments from them too. don't believe what people on this board say about aakuan missions, they are NOT all they are hyped up to be. people talk about em like its the best loot in this game and i'm out killing dark jedi knights looting better CA/AA's than they are and just as fast or FASTER. i dont know who started the rumor about DJK being nerfed but all that happened was their cLvl was reduced so as a result they couldnt drop those godly +25/+25 tapes and they couldnt drop them almost every kill. It used to be about 1/3 dropped one, and if you were lucky you could loot a couple in a row. Now it's probably 1/10 or something close to that and they still go up to about +20 and are double mods, and triple sometimes too. Why are people killing aakuans now for wimpy +6/+7 tapes where the drop rate is like 1/30 and DJK are still dropping +15/+15 or higher tapes in like 1/10 kills?? Just doesn't make any sense. Whoever started that rumor is an idiot b/c they still drop premium crystals and good tapes. They are still the best loot in this game.
