i too have noticed that the loot frequency for EVERYTHING changed with the bh loot change patch.

on the plus side, i tuned a fair crystal to 98 dmg today, but only -2 fc and -.12 speed

still better than the 71 -5 -.2 it replaces

I totally agree with this statement. I always try and hit it right after reset but this time not much. Well since one guy said he looted 4 pearls in 10 Krayts then I am going to think I have just had a bad run. There has been several times I would loot 3 ina row but like I said past 2 days 160+ Krayts and only 2 pearls. Oh well thanks for the info guys. Good luck with your tunes. I am still debating once I collect about 25 more pearls which would make an even 50 this go around whether to tune them or just sell them. My saber is 636 17 FPC so I really don't know how much I can improve it. I could get lucky or I could have 50 million or I could tune crap and get nothing for the effort. Don't know what I am going to do. Should have my 50 unless this bad streak continues by wednesday.

I don't know if this is connected but I test out weapons and new attack patterns against the Tuskens at the sand crawler Jawa battle. Usually, I get all sorts of colored crsytals and white crystals, even if I am only there for 30 minutes, I'll pick up 4 or 5. Yesterday i was there for over an hour and did not get one.

tru dat


im on bria. two nights ago, i fought one krayt and got a pearl. havent gotten any since, and have killed at least 10 (nothin compared to 160 lol). i dont think our wild spawns work anymore tho. I havent seen a krayt in Mos Elsewhere (town just west of the graveyard) or anywhere surrounding the graveyard, or around jabba's palace or the pit. i think our wild spawns may be broken.

The Krayts at the graveyard itself are a static spawn which constantly respawns. They do not drop anything like the same amount of loot (I've never gotten anything at all) as the Krayts that randomly spawn further afield.

Yeah, the random krayt spawns around Mos Elsewhere appear to be broken. None of us in MOB (owners of Mos Elsewhere) have seen a random-spawn krayt in weeks... now stretching to over a month. It's so bad, I've taken to organizing raids on the Nightsister villages in hopes of looting crystals again.


The tuskens-vs-jawas static battle site near the Graveyard is a potential source of crystals, but power crystals are rare, and mostly Poor when they do drop, with Fairs making an even rarer appearance.


I've also tried pillaging some of the Dantooinian force-wielders, but have yet to loot a crystal off any of them since the CU went live. Anyone else have any luck picking on them? They used to be my favorite source of crystals, pre-CU.
