I've been fooling around in deep space since this CU thing started and i'm noticing a lot more lvl 1-3 loot drops. I still get the occasional lvl 7+ drop from a few guys but now instead of all my drops being at least lvl 5 or so I'm getting level 1-4 stuff now as well. So after coming out of DS i have mabye 25% items that are completely worthless to me.

Anyone else noticed that good loot is dropping a lot less now?

What about in kessel or around planets? I haven't had the patience to try much else, Tbo I'm more interested in the message boards than JTL atm. Hope they fix things soon.

You make a Ships N Chips run?

*cough* thats the nickname on bria anyway. Go to rori station and grab a destroy mission.

Imperial pilots get teir 3 rebels to shoot at. Rebel pilots vice versa. Privateers get pirates.

Mission payout is about the same as a teir 4 mission, and since you can 2 shot the suckers you loot alot faster. As an imperial pilot i looted plenty of L6 engines, a few L8 cannons, etc etc. Takes about a little over an hour to 1.5 hours to complete. Should have about 50 (give or take) looted parts when your done. I never walked away from that mission without a few parts i saved for RE work.

I've noticed an increase of low lvl loot. However, sometimes this loot may be an uber lvl2 capacitor with 50 regen or reactor with 12k gen. I have a lvl2 cap on my xwing with 900 mass. So it may be worthless to sell, but may be very worth its use. I personally never sell loot until I give them a once over.

Same here. I was getting almost nothing but low-level loot. So I went to Dathomir, killed that Tier 4 YT-1300 and he dropped a level 10 Cannon so I could finally RE.

The one caution about this mission are the T3 Novas that start spawning after a while - they don't roll, but if both catch you with their turrets, they can put some hurtin' on.

You kidding me? those Nova's are the most fun part of that mission!

I love it when they send in two of em. WIsh theyd put in like 3 or 4 honestly.

Hey, I was surprised too - but you were advocating the mission as being universally easy. Some people don't have the irons to handle twin turreted ships, especially when they're sub-Ace.

Oh....... bah!

Ya i suppose if i was teir 3 or something id be a little worried. When your strapping the equaivlant of a pack howizter in your ship, you start looking for big stuff and more of it

Hmm.. I'm on Valcyn, and Rori Station doesn't have any option to ask for a mission. Am I missing something?

I haven't tried the rori missions yet, but if you wanna hit me up for a looting run feel free to contact me and we can go hunt together. I like to go have a little fun. I have an imperial Master Ace Pilot(inquisition), or I also have a lower lvl neutral pilot I'm working on, and I haven't really started my rebel one yet.

Yeah, I'm looking for a decent, steady, Tier 4 spawn. My favourite Tier 3 spawns just aren't cutting it anymore
