I just RE'd a level 10 weapon last week that has max damage over 4700, with .8+ to both shields and armor. energy consumption per shot is thirty-something, refire rate is just over .4, and mass is about 45000. I haven't seen a weapon better than this one so far, and it is currently in my firespray. I have another level 10 that has 4200+ max damage waiting for me to be able to get 9 more for RE, which should result in a 4500+ max damage product.

I've looted a lvl 10 engine with 89.1 speed and P/Y/R all around 74-76. Mass was really bad though.

I've also got a few lvl 10 guns. Highest damage was about 4600. Others are in the 4300-4500 range.

I spend most of my time in deep space and I can say without exaggeration that I've looted about 2500 items. Great loot is EXTREMELY rare IMHO. I'd put the drop rate somewhere around 1 in 400.

I would agree with some of the other posters here though, in that it drops often enough that most people (by the time they've made Ace) will have better equipment than what a SW can craft.

The very best engine I've found since that one patch is a level 10 with 96 speed and PYR between 75-80. Nothing else has come close, though--I found one with 88.5 speed and PYR in the low-mid 70s, and everything else has been 85 speed or less.

My recently RE'd engine ended up with 97.5 speed, 77.5 pitch, 82.7 yaw and 82 roll. It has about 38k mass.

As far as crafted vs. loot goes, the pyr on crafted is usually really shabby, but odd numbered RE parts, especially level 9 for some reason, seems to be utter crud, most my level 8 guns andengines beat both crafted and looted level 9's.

i have looted well over 100 level 10 guns and have found only two that would RE to higher than 4700, only 4 with speeds sub .4 (one .379)pre RE and only one that would RE to 40k mass.

i've looted probably in the neighborhood of 100 level seven reactors and i've recieved a 0 generation and a 40k generation.

imo the drop rate for decent components is 1 in 30ish, then tack the drop rate % for that level of component on top of that.

hope that helps, i kept data on all components i looted but it rapidly became a chore and i gave up.
