Thread: simple tool kits
dlc3007;"Funny how so many people hated slicing and now are p!ssed about changes in slicing."
I'm one that grew to hate slicing. That's why the In Concept concept and our discussions had me thinking I might again enjoy it.
But, true to form, the In Concept was just a load of horse manure and we got THIS instead. So much for hoping SOE would make slicing actually INTERESTING.
I can't wait to see what they do to the In Concept concept of smuggling content...

Guys.... I suggest you take a few minutes and read some of the posts in this forum... seriously.
In response to this, I have read the threads and come up with nothing. I read in one kessel gunships drop them, so i went overt and killed 30 of them a got jack Sh*t to show for it (Besides the space loot, cred chips, and 8250 Faction Points). I then killed two vettes and all their escorts and an additional 50 ties. And still got nothing. So i went to Deep space thinking the poster on the thread got DS and Kessel confused. There i killed the Star Destroyer 4 times, same amount of gunships and fighters and still have nothing. Im not completely upset cause i got 30k Faction Points out of it, but im still a little pissed that i couldnt loot a single simple tool kit or any of the advanced stuff. The most difficult space MOB's are in kessel/DS and now Kashyyyk, so i think the space loot should come from those sectors.
Another BS post was that they drop from tier 4 blacksuns, well after 3 duty missions that is either false, or they have a 1% dropping rate.
I am one of the unfortunate smugglers that was too busy the week before publish 19 came out to unload 1000+ wuk's and auk's out of their crates so i have none to hold me by while they change drop rates. So when someone comes on asking for locations to loot, its out of frustration. And dont feed them that BS line of "Read the other Threads" cause they are all vague and dont give you hard facts (like how many they killed before they looted one). Also, we are still in the discovery stage of what drops the loot, so someone reading these new loot threads may spill the beans on a new mob that drops loot. This post has a somewhat harsh tone, cause ive killed everything mentioned in the other posts (in space) and have killed everything in both DS and Kessel and have no slicing loot to show for it

Man, you are sooooo asking for trouble, if you can't spell it at least (sp?) it. Or you will endup as a Smuggler Humor Bait.

2 days killing Rebs and Mercs on Lok, not ONE drop. I don't mind hunting easter eggs. I don't mind the loot system. If that's what it takes fine. But let something drop, encourage me to keep trying, let me know I"m headed in the right direction.

the old system was fine.. I loved slicin with that system... I don't see why everyone thinks taht one was so bad or everyone hated it.. I mean damn
You haven't even freakin experienced the slicing system I can bet. This thread is proof of you just coming to terms that loot was in the game and required for slicing and all of a sudden you start spouting how upset you are about it.
I was upset at first yes, but man take a few steps back and re-evaluate the scenario.
The old system was CRAP. Seriously. How can a master smuggler sit and slice something and NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. I'm sorry but a master smuggler should be able to determine what slice they can accomplish and what they can increase.
I also do not believe that a smuggler can slice something with his bare hands. This is where components come in- I know you do not agree with the loot system.
But I'm sorry, I am not a slice monkey and I will not slice for the average joe out there that wants to make their normal weapon extraordinary. If they have the means to acquire the pieces, or they have the means to pay me for my pieces, then sure, but other wise they are SOL.
Having thousands of illegal items through out the galaxy, was game breaking IMO. Smugglers were meant to be able to make gear ILLEGAL and RARE.
This new system accomplishes that, well atleast the rare part.
I'm sorry that you're so upset about this but jesus man, calm down. It's not the end of the world.
Now if inspections actually worked and contraband was confiscated (from non smugglers), we might get a business going ....
