Sucks but, Working As Intended!
Loot has never worked as intended in this game. There's absolutely NO reason why poor-fair crystals should be as rare as they are. Good and up I can understand. But poors and fairs?

i have 321 base dps saber 564 (all "good" pearls)mod dps with tapes and MLS. I would say i kill about 95% of bh's, so perhaps you just don't have the right template or need or need more practice with your jedi. however like i said the drop rate for these pearls and crystals is obviously wrong and needs to be addressed.

Yes I know we are Jedi, but I think if your MLS with full temp and you do300 DPS is wrong. Whats the point of all this, I might aswellhave stayeda novice brawler as they do more dmg than a full temp jedi. Stupid game it is.Im not asking for jedi to do more dmg than any other profession, just make it so we are at least on par with most professions, so we have a chance when it comes to our meets with BH's etc etc. If you think Jedi is meant to be 1.5x stronger than an elite profession which alot of ppl forgot I wouldnt call my MLS doing 300 DPS 1.5x stronger ?
i think if they just scrapped the whole jedi vs bh pvp no one would have to worry about getting the uberest pearls and crystals tunes to have decent ls damage.

i dont' know, i have absolutely no trouble at all getting pearls from krayts on tat or crystals from corsairs on lok. maybe you are just unlucky, but from the 30-50 crystals/pearls i've looted and tuned in the past week, i'd say the drop rate doesn't appear nerfed on the things i'm killing. granted they are still only 'good' in quality, but they still drop.
wow thats awesome i can definately say that i am unlucky. I was trying to crystal farm and after several hours i think i ended up with 1 fair crystal. Another time with a few buddies we were hunting krayts, ancient ones included and same result after several hours we had looted absolutely nothing. We still had fun though
if you are killing random corsairs or corsairs at the POI, i agree, the drop rate are completely terrible. i'm talking about running canyon corsair missions from a mission terminal. whether i'm running solo or with a friend or two, it seems that level 80-82 corsair's drop one 'good' quality damage crystal every 3-4 missions. an hour of missions usually nets me at least a couple of them. last night, in 1.5 hours, a group of three of us walked away with 3 'good' crystals each (and one fair from killing a random spawn of corsairs near one of our missions).
random npc drops do seem to be crappy lately.
as for krayts, the last time i went out with the same two other people, we went about 20-25 krayts (anything above juvenile) and got nothing. right when we were getting annoyed, we went on a streak of 8 good pearls in the next 15 krayts. randomness sucks.
