I'm just looking for balance... I dont feel the low lvls should drop stuff everytime. The High lvls (80+) should, to keep things balanced. Right now with primarily only BH missions dropping premo loot, the costs are going sky high (and promoting cred. farming). No one is trading anymore cause there is not equal demand items on both sides. This needs to be addressed, the economy is extremely inflated right now.

I look at it this way. I loot some premo saber tapes. I will sell some if someone wants them. I am not too greedy about it, but I do want to make a profit, and I will sell them for the most I think I can get for them. hell, if it dont sell, oh well... more for my custom dark jedi outfit.

Jacella, Its not balanced b/c when I do lvl 82 factional missions I looted posters, CDef weapons, & Foraged Vegetables. I'd be happy with the items you got, they have value. I'm not asked for the high end super rare items to drop more often, just to drop for all professions.

Ok...I see your point. I also want to defend the BH getting great loots aswell...mostly because their new role has eased tensions a lot and it encourages BH's to do something besides hunt jedi and the cry for more nerfs. The other reason is that I hve a BH myself


Upping the drop rates on almost everything is needed, but dangerous if done wrong. The economy is in ruins right now due to loots.


Fixing the rest of the professions would help ease tension a lot, and increase renewed accounts.

No need to defend the Bh's Getting loot, I have no problem with it at all. I really dont have an issue with Jedi Vs. Bh at all, its usually the most exciting thing that goes on anyway. I just want all professions killing High lvl npcs to have a chance at the same loots in order to balance the economy out. I feel the prices on things are out of hand for the most part right now.

It seems like the BH loot drops are making them the real money makers in the game right now. My alt is a Master Chef/Master Artisan/Master Armorsmith with 4 vendors and I make way less then the BH who loots high end CA's AA's, Mando/Trando frames etc..... and then goes on the forums and sells this stuff for crazy amounts of credits. I was trying to get good 2 handed LS CA's for my jedi and I was told no less then 2 mil per point! so If I want an uber +15 CA I have to shell out 30 Mil? Who really has this much to spend? Well the credit farmers do but most of the rest of us dont. Now I'm not calling for a nerf or anything like that, just balance to keep the prices resonable for this stuff. If I do a lvl 82 faction mission I should have a chance to loot some of these items also. I did a few just to see what I would get, and it was pretty bad. I got a few luke posters, a cdef pistol, a dlta rifle and other worthless stuff. This should be balanced for the sake of the games economy and to help curb the farmers. I can't blame people for buying creds from the farmers when the prices are this high for stuff.







As long as the person asking about CA's isn't a jeeteye show offor an@[email protected] charge over1-2k per point for ANYCA (depending on skills). If the Jedi asking about a CA is a friend of mine they get it for free no matter what the skills on it are.


However I keep the really choice stuff for myself. Especially if its for trapping, cammo, or harvesting.

Am I right to assume that the BH marks drop SOME loot everytime? Thats why the drop rate is so high I believe...why cant all NPCs be like this? They should always drop SOMETHING. I highly doubt there is a person, NPC or player, that carries around 110 credits and nothing else. On Ultima Online if you killed a guy wearing armor and using a sword...guess what dropped? Everything he had equipped and possibly something else like a special weapon or other loot. Made sense, but Ive never seen anything like that in any other game, loot-wise. But ok, why do BH npcs drop something everytime when regular npcs dont?! Are we to believe that the criminals the BH are sent to kill carry things while the other npcs non-BH are killing do not? At least make elite/boss npcs drop something, nightsisters an whatnot...who knows, AGREE with the original poster, why should BH have their cake and eat it too, when every other class hasnt seen cake in months
