I've been going there for quite a while, and i dont have a total count, i can say its easily 30+ barrels.
Few days ago (wednesday i think), my group and I looted 6 barrels in a buff session. (4 yellow!)
I personally didnt find it that hard to get em, but Intrepid is mad cool.

they take the exact same resoucres as modifed republlics, and have 2 blaster poer handlers like modified republics (3 tisues, 1 gets used for schematic...) so you need 3 krayt tissues with same serial, a barrel, and a schematic.

AFAIK, Master Pistoleer. Though I wouldn't be my life on it.
I just spent an hour or two there, and either they upgraded it or the place was bugged in a good way. The first room with black suns was spawning up to 3 thugs at a time and two henchmen with them. After I've taken care of the lot of them the first time around, they're respawns are set into a perfect cycle where I have about 30 seconds of downtime every three minutes, and always figthing something in between. Worked like a charm for maximum camping, minimum risk. Only when a group of rebels showed up and pulled some SBD's through (or when I ran out of my brandy) did I have to leave (I'm a 4000 Fencer, Master pistoleer, 3040 BH). Also learned a new trick, run round in circles. They'll hit me substantially less, but with the extraaccuracy from BHI don't miss muchmore than usual.
But no barrel. But a DE-10 schematic and two hack schematics still made the trip worthwhile

just had to post in here. First, since the lootkits have begun to drop from blacksun it simply decreases your chances of getting a barrell. Its random, and ive looted same number of barrells off henchman and thugs than i have ghosts and wraiths. But since the lootkits have come out,,,it may feel like its impossible, everytime you loot a lousy orange rug 5th section that could have been a barrell 2months ago.
I also saw something about barrells and stats. There is a yellow and a white barrell. The yellow barrell only adds stats to WOUND PERCENTAGE. Thats it. No other stats than this are added. There are alot of misconceptions regarding this. I hope this helps and prevents someone from paying twice the price because the barrell is yellow.
Lastly,,,someone made are comment about the de10 not being a good gun. LOLOLOL. Are you f'n crazy. Its not a pvp gun i admit, but it is the best pve gun pistoleer has. I tick over 2k with last ditch. Also, if you ever duel jedi,,,try a de10,,,then tell me the gun sucks.

i checked those threads dead-eye,,and honestly, i dont think anyone knows what they are talking about. I cant go into detail on how i know, but yellow barrells effect wound percentage only. The one post about how he used three different yellow barrells and basically got three different outcomes,,,cmon. There are tooo many variations when crafting, experimentaion and otherwise. Just please check one state for me,,,look at wound percentage in de10's with and without yellow barrells...then post. All other added stats, is a myth.

Iwent to the DWB 3 times, got alot of loot jetpack parts, De-10 schem and a yellow barrel. Got some krayt to make it, and find out its not really all that great. Maybe it should be medium armour piercing. I mean it is our Number1 special weapon

There are tooo many variations when crafting, experimentaion and otherwise
1) Most crafters will use the same crafting tool for all their l33t gear. If they don't, they notice. And kick themselves.
2) Most crafters will use the same crafting station for all their l33t gear. Be it droid, or their private, he doesn't move he'll know exactly what he's doing.
3) When you botch an experimentation or an assembly you will know. He might have missed it, but I sincerely doubt any experienced WS would make that error with any kind of guns.
4) Keeping track of what kind of uber resources you pumped into your guns is usually pretty easy. You don't mess that up when juggling schematics and items worth as much as that.
Besides, check the WS version of thread (... the one I thought I was linking too. I need to cut back on the number of browser windows. Oh well. At least you ended up with an SWG related link...) for the complete stats of some of the DE-10 posted. Naturually, their resource vary, but the same WS will use the same four points as described above.
And at least one of them managed to get better wound chance AND dmg out of yellow while actually getting worse experimentation results than on the white.
