Tiggs, what about the occasions where a player has gotten the message: You have looted everything from an ancient kryat dragon. And gotten nothing in inventory?

..... and umm what pray tell would those elite monsters be... and what level? Cause Dark Jedi Masters (lvl 119) only drop qualities...... thats level 119! A bit imbalanced..... I'd say so.

yes tiggs but between very rare and none at all... there is a difference.
premiums are not dropping at all at this moment that is the problem.
all jedi want is to have a very small chance to loot one.
there are tens of possibilities to implement this, one of them is to let premiums drop off from necrosis, katarn or other rotw high end mobs.
please consider a solution for this before November, again, I repeat, jedi just want them to drop even in infinetisimal quantities.

Tiggs wrote:The "rare" pearls are simply ones which dropped from very high level creatures. What changed was that combat upgrade altered the levels of creatures. So where a pearl might before have been considered "premium" because it dropped from a level 287 creature, now it isn't considered premium because the creature dropping the pearl isn't level 287 any more.The possible stats that a pearl can give you are the same, regardless of the pearl quality. The only advantage a "premium" pearl gives you is a better chance of getting higher stats. "Fixing pearls" would be a matter of changing the level ranges for different quality pearls. This would be a retroactive change which would suddenly change all the pearls in the game to be high-level pearls, increasing the power of Jedi globally and almost instantly - Unless we simultaneously lowered the advantage of premium pearls so that they don't give as much an increase to the odds of getting higher stats as they do now.We would rather keep the premium pearls as they are - highly desirable and much better (in terms of the odds of getting higher stats) than normal pearls, but not drop them as casually as they dropped in the past. These should be rare, elite quest rewards and very high-end, elite-monster drops - not things that players "farm" from creatures that are no match for the player.
So basically :
"If you didn't farm Krayt Dragons pre-cu, sorry, you get the shaft"
Thanks Tiggs.

How about let Jedi create a "farm" where we can grow premium pearls. Allow us to also have multi-passenger tractors so we can harvest these pearls.
Also, allow us to have farmer's markets on saturdays where we can sell our wares.
LMAO!!!!!!!
