Is there any chance rebels will drop loot on a par with the Vader/victory and No Division posters? I worked my way through 4 rebels bases, and the best thing I picked up was a DH-17 carbine.


I'd just like to see imperials have a chance at high-demand loots too.

Devs hate imps, no wonder there's so few.

And yet I've read that they want to increase the number of imperial players, particularly with the way they're shifting the GCW. I'm not asking for something that insta-deaths anybody; I just want the chance to loot something of comparable value.

Lets compare Imps to rebs shall we?

We get good loot off stormies...we get one perk.

Imps get:
100k crackdown troopers, and the ability to get old mission payouts of 30k simply by grouping with your AT-ST.
Something rebels won't have.

We get the loot, you get the power.

The Empire WILL win this GCW. Sadly, the outcome of the movies is only a dream for the rebellion of SWG...

/salute

LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE!!!

(lol...now we really would like some better loot drops off the rebs though...)

I knew someone would play the AT-ST card. Maybe I should mention that they aren't free, that they cost thousands of faction points?


Besides, with the upcoming changes to GCW (specifically, the way planets will change allegiance depending on who holds sway), I'm sure rebels will get plenty of perks. All's I'm asking for is something to show for my efforts beyond a level 2 carbine.

Imperials get the Radar Screen/Technical Console schematic off Reb Surface Marshals. Rebels have no way to get these.





Thank you for the info - much appreciated.

But be carefull!!! Killing Beldonna's leauge will harm your CorSec faction standing and if your a marginal combat proff (where killing the belldonna's is challenging WITH a buff) your gona have to be sneaky and or spend time repairing that standing in order to visit corellian static cities.

Looks like we were thinking the same thing at the same time. One thing though, unless they have changed something, I looted a ton of the tech consoles of Tuskens, they were both the ones with and without the radar screen, or the holoscreen whatever you want to call it.

heh, the AT-ST card. sorry, but it's too easy to farm faction point now. Every Imp i can think of on Eclipse has one of these in their pockets and they aren't afraid to use em.

Sorry if I came across as snide; I was just trying to make the point that AT-ST's aren't free.


My original point was that by putting the high-demand loot where only rebels could get and sell it, game mechanics were in a sense forcing imperial players to bankroll the rebellion. Since others have posted that imperials can get them (and I five-starred them each in a small gesture of thanks) by other means, I guess this thread can be considered closed?


My thanks to all.
