Thread: BH Loot Drops

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.

Agreed. Although the frequency of a +15 CA/AA shouldnt be increased or they wont be as rare. Imagine everyone having a +15 CA/AA attached to something.

The price is always set by demand. Look at gas prices currently, people whine about how much it costs but the key is they are still filling up their 9 miles to a gallon Hummer rofl.


Until people stop buying the SEAs at 2 mill per point they will never go down in price. BH missions in game or not, the price is determined by demand.


I do agree BH loot drops are pretty nice but they are more rare than you think. To give you an idea out of the 100+ MBH missions I've run, I've only looted 2 CA's worth a crap. +15 2handed LS accuracy and +15 Force Accuracy. Those are the only two out of about 20-30 hrs worth of missions. Killing DJM or DJK NPC's will give me a better chance at loot. Difference to me is I'm actually playing the game rather than trying to farm one NPC. Some missions take up 20-30 mins to complete, I have to travel 15k meters total........just to get a jar of bugs lol.



To me the real issue is the ability for BH's to loot such nice weapon components to get maxed out ranged weapons. Seems to me Melee weapons (that includes sabers) is just left behind. It's not so much the crafted weapon is a problem to me, it's when you get it sliced with a PU that it becomes obvious that the devs are favoring Ranged in this game now......even when it comes to Jedi.

I used my token to take my double master crafter to bh/mcm (yes I respec'd so?). i fought a boss and looted some power cells which I've sold for 4 mil. In essence, I made more credits in my first week as a bh then in a whole year (or pretty close to it) as a crafter. But nothing compares to what I made as a doc. lol

It's not the people selling those I laugh at as much as the fools spending that kind of money on something that will more than likely tune to crap.

It wasnt too long ago that jedi had been looting +25 sea's off the djm's and djk's on dathomir. I admit, it wasnt always the case, but... how many non-jedi would be able to take one of those CL280 mobs without a jedi.



And besides, you have an alt, go make a bh and get some loot, nothing is stopping you, well... except you.

How is it communist to worry about your own personal effects and try to gain more for yourself?


I'm going to guess and say you weren't talking to me, because you're not making sense. And its spelled WILL for the love of god.
