So, last night on Lowca... I was checking out the local bazaar on Lok, when to my disbelief, I found the following items...

6 Delicate Triggers... 15K to 20K each!!!

5 Illegal Core Boosters... 15K to 20K each!!!


Usually on Lowca, you can find toolkits and maybe an occasional toolset for around 10K to 20K... but never the other stuff. I've seen Vendor prices for the other stuff starting at about 200K.


Anyone else see anything like this on their servers?


As far as I know, I don't think the triggers or boosters have started dropping more (as far as loot), so I'm thinking that someone might not have known how much these things are worth to some people.

Didn't I predict that in an earlier thread? Score one for the dead girl.

Probably mostly idiots who don't know what they're worth.



Or rich players who just don't care.

Maybe not. Last night there we so many BHs in Kadaara, heading out on missions, that I would not be surprised in the least if there are so many slcing components now that normal hunters are selling them on the bazaar just to clear inventory space.

Exactly. I'm a Corbantis Bounty Hunter and when you drive through 4 bounties per hour, looting Mandalorian Intraframes from EACH ONE you have to make some room somehow.

Though, I tell you what. I've kept every illegal core booster, reactive microplate and delicate trigger assembly I've looted. IGN is Aleysi on Corbantis. Send me an email, I'll hook you up for a fair price; It's better than them sitting on a vendor or the bazaar.

What a crock. First they change slicing and then totally ruin it by making it as common as a diseased nuna.


What a total waste. Didn't think they could make the game that much worse in one swift move, but they did it.

slices aren't worth anything anymore. BH's are selling core boosters for 1k so people just give me components they need lol. How can we make a profit?

I liked when these parts were rare, since people would only have their best weapons sliced. Now, we're going back to the old system where we'll be slicing DLT20s for people to grind with.

The message that I got from the new system was that sliced weapons were not to be commonplace. I was fine with that. It made slicing feel more illicit.

First we're saddled with a sub-par slicing system (still an improvement over the old system) and then the market for the looted parts is gutted.
