Now, take that and add 8 guys in a group who are also looking for crystals....pretty bleak. Very good job on this project...my new vote for corrospondant.

Unless they had animal attack in Powers, most had to do it with their alts. Unless it was a big group and then splitting loot

I tuned 4 Quality crystals last night, and NONE of them tuned better than a 35 dmg -3 fc. How sad. With the economy going the way it is (Premium Pearls at 50 mil +) its no wonder we are seeing mass credit farmers on every server.

nah...there were whole guilds farming krayts...it was easy to do...still is other than the stupid loot tables...It would bea rare occurence for someone to spend over 1bil credits on pearls pre-CU...they were easy to get...

No..I'm the guy that shows up at the Corsair POI and attracks the 5 kimos that camp the place all night.
I'm also the guy who between my wife and I have killed 12 straight Krayt with no loot whatsoever. (Including several giants and one Ancient) *shrug*
The 89 -7 tune was a fair crystal that I got from a player who left the game.
/sigh

Not true - pearls were also bought, although they were only around 2-5 mil instead of the prices they are going for today.
True some purchased pearls and some still do...but not a 1bil credits worth...

Can you tell us a bit more about how you calculated these percentages? How many crystals total did you have data for, and how many pearls? Was it roughly 150 / 150?

I was under the impression that giants and adolescents did not drop loot of any kind.
