LOL, krayts drop tons of tissues, like 4-12a pop. Heck I get like 50 tissues a trip or more when I go hunt them. And no it's no faked screen shot. Heck that's only one factory. I have 2 others full of tissues, feeders, vibro units etc. You obviously never been to a krayt hunt. I farmed nyms for days when they didnt assist and weren't kos lol. They drop up to 5 parts at a time, though it seems the drop rate is a bit less. Using a 2h you can kill nyms in 1-2 hits if they hold a rifle. Plus my panic shot was uber before, allowing me to kill 6 nyms at a time. Add in the drops peopel brought me and the ones I buy and there you go. Any CSR is welcome to check the tissues, you'll see they have diff serials. If I was a duper I wouldn't be stupid to post a screenshot like that hehe. I find it harder and harder each day to sit and hand craft guns using them so they kinda build up over time.

Think he was referring to the amount on credits you have as opposed to the amount of items you have...I can only assume you are a weaponsmith/armorsmith or maybe an architect to have that amount of credits...If not share your secret with the rest of us! You did not block out the 1.2Million you had on hand so I shiver to think what you did block out!

I was the first master weaponsmith on my server, so made my money that way. But I can get roughly 150-200k an hour doing missions on endor. As for the cash, I sell some guns for 1 million credits, plus I rarely ever bank. Some customers don't have money in the bank so they just tip me, or I do hand trade cause they afraid of the vendor weapon poof bugs. I think mission money goes into cash too if grouped, not sure though. But kiling all those nym missions adds up. Money kinda useless anyways, else I'd try and make more every day hehe.

How come no other creatures drop BPH's though? If you want to enhance a weapon, only one type of creature or several NPC's have it.

For example, if you were on Corellia, would there be any source of good weapon enhancers?

Normally folks go out and kill the Nyms in camps outside the city. They drop kind of rarely. Hmmm... like one in 10-15. Kill a few camps and you'll often get one to drop (usually 4 at a time when they do drop though). The problem is that the drop is just as likely to be any of the three types of drops, and odds are you're looking for one in particular. The capacitors are useless because even the crappiest Krayt Tissue is better, and the vibro units for melee weapons are useless for ranged weapon users, and vice versa for the feed mechs.

I have however heard of people getting the drops off of the Nyms right in town, but I think that because they're lower level they would drop less often.

You don't use backslashes when dealing with stuff on the web - you use that when referencing local things.

Can't say Nym drops are useless since I can solo a Nym camp, but not a Krayt yet. lol

'The capacitors are useless because even the crappiest Krayt Tissue is better'


a +20 is a +20. can still make better guns than normal. the don't go for much but shotgun was offering 20k for each one.


the NYM guards in town are just as tough as those in the camps as far as i can tell.
