Thread: Looting Simple toolkits

My concern is a little more for someone who is starting out new and doesn't have massive stockpiles of WUK and AUK's to convert.
Any new Smugglers are going to have a tough time getting what they need.
Remember spamming for containers at starports? Now people will be spamming for toolkits.

I got all my lv 1 and lv 2 kits from salvage upgrade kits.
And by the way...how much are you charging for slices? I've been asking 1k to 2k for all slices until i use i kit. Then i bump it up a few k.

Are you insane? 1k to 2k??? I guess you must not like actually making money, do you?
I charge 50K per slice, and that's only if they provide their own components. If they don't, it's much, much more.

I spent hours killing Lok mercenaries until Lok got all Bugged and the mission spawns disappeared whenever you got near them. Also wasted about 100 Black Sun Pirates, not a simple toolkit or illegal core booster. Nothing.... perhaps the drop rate is so ridiculous that it is a better idea to make customers supply their own components? At least it's not a waste of time. I got lots of credits for the components looted off the pirates and for the missions. Probably made more credits than the pre publish 19 slicing business!
Remember, you can see the cup as half empty or half full, it's your choice.
I have been getting plenty of simple toolkits and a few finely crafted toolkits off low-level faction NPCs, like lvl 25 Stormies. The high end stuff, like Delicate TriggerAssembly, Illegal Core Booster and Mandalorian Infraframe I have been getting from Krayt dragons, they drop one of the top-tier smuggler components on maybe 1 in 3 kills. Juvenile, Regular Canyon, Giant Canyons all drop the smuggler components.
May be just luck, but I have have never gotten a Reactive Micro Plating, I have around 20 Mandalorian Infraframes, no Micro Plating.
You've been finding ICBs from Krayts?? I've found Delicate Trigger Assemblies and Mandalorian Intras by the masses from them, but no Illegals at all yet. I've never seen one on the global vendor search either, whereas there are usually a half-dozen DTAs and Mandos up at any given moment (all listed at a half-mil or more, haha).

Wait? These are worth something? I just got back from vacation, and restocked my WUK vendor. 10k a crate!!!
