Ok this is a joke, When I first started re'ing before the last "patch" I would store up around 100 parts then land and re them. I would usually get 1 disk, sometimes it would take 2 trips. So at most it would take around 150 parts to get 1 disk. This week I've re'ed around 1000 parts. I started out the week doing the same thing and just re'ing what I picked up each night. It was 4 nights before I got a disk so I decked to go at it full blast, put in some extra play time, and store up a bunch to re at once. So I stored and sorted ~600 parts then re'ed them tonight. What did I get out of it? 1 lousy #5 disk.

IMO, they have significantly lowered the drop rate.

Based on my experien ce I have no doubt that the disk drop rarte has been reduced along with the quality of loot that drops off ships.


This doesn't mean that high quality loot stoped droping it is just much, much more rare now.

It's interesting that Firespray prices have dropped on my server since the last patch too. Around 8 mill on average for a Firespray. Perhaps we'll see a price increase again?

the drop rates for FS disks has not been decreased. period. in fact, i would suggest they have been increased.


5 disks dropped for me in the last 3 days....3 of them last night in under 15 minutes.


also, the reports of a fat guy tooling around in a big red 1969 Lincoln Continental with suicide doors, wearing a bright red jumpsiut and 24k gold rimmed glasses, pounding ho-ho's and twinkies, and shouting *merruh christmas, the king is back*......are also false.

I still think they went down, but only for those w2ho already used a created schematic. New shipwrights aren't complaining about the drop rate.


In the past 3 1/2 weeks I got 2 the first week (after I used my 1st 4 use schem) and 1 since REing 300-500 parts a day.


I have not seen a disk drop now in over 10 days.


I either have terrible luck, or the devs are trying to encourage new shipwrights, who will just get ticked off as I am later.


Raph's idea on MMO's, keep a constant conflict going on between the players and the developers. I hate that a-hole.

I think they may have been increased recently. just a couple days 4 dropped in about 200 parts.

I didn't get any disks for about 500 parts last weekend... then this weekend I got THREE in 100 parts. Could be random (or at least as random as SWG's random number generator is!)
