If it is any consolation, in my experience, discovered missions are weighted, with Investigation, Diplomacy, and Treasure Hunting, being more common, Slicing being the rarest of the bunch, and the rest falling the middle.
That being said, you have three characters able to run a total of three grade 9 lockbox missions each (the abundant, bountiful, and rich lockbox missions can all generate discovered missions). That means in any one pass you can run 9 missions. Next question is how often do you log in to run more missions? Those people you mention probably have 10 characters running all three of those missions all the time, so they are running THIRTY missions every 45 minutes or so. Sheer volume of missions run gets them the number of discovered missions.
Since I started playing again, I run about 40 or so lockbox missions a day. Just guessing because I don't really keep track but the whole time I'm logged in (about 2 to 3 hours) 3 characters are running with 5 companions each. I understand that they are weighted and I understand why but I should be getting more of the missions I actually need (TH, Slicing, UT). I don't even mind buying them on the GTN but for what people sell them for on the GTN I can't even make a profit.

I just did a search on this and unfortunately my old thread is the only one I can find on this problem. I guess I am the only one in SWTOR that has this problem. I now have 3 chars that I spam lockboxes constantly and still only get the worthless missions of Diplomacy, Investigation, and one other I can't think of. I go to the GTN and people (the same person) are selling 10-15 Slicing/UT/TH missions at a time. Is the game programed to see what crew skills you have and give you the opposite of what you need? So everything is handled through the GTN? This problem is very, very frustrating. I have literally never a 450 slicing mission from thousands and thousands of lockboxes. Then I go to the GTN and one person has 10-15 for sale at 100k. Makes me want to @#$%^& scream.

I didn't read the whole thread so if it's been said already, sorry. Didn't LucasArts sign off/approve all the canon for the expanded universe books?

From any lockbox mission when it crits? If 340 missions guaranteed a 340 discovery, they'd be a tad OP. As is the purple mats they give are pretty darn nice.
Your right, if I understand correctly, 340 mission discovery drops shouldn't be guaranteed from a 340 mission discovery mission. But, I have ran at last count 31 of the 340 purple missions and I've gotten 2 mission discovery drops. One was a slicing mission (cool) and the other was a Dark side, I think diplomacy, drop. Thats with my comp being at 10k affection.
Apparently the only comp that I'm going to have with +anything slicing crit is my r2d2 droid that is on my artifice. It would be nice to determine your own comps based on the crating prof you choose. The only one of my character where the comps somewhat match up is my smuggler that has cybertech, scavenging and underworld trading.
-
Sources I have seen say Tharan is a +10 slicing efficiency, not crit. That just means the companion works faster.
Yes your right but regardless I have not had a crit on a slicing mission in about 30 missions now.
-
This^^^ All absolutely correct. Is op saying he should GET 340 mission discoveries from running 340 slicing mission discoveries? Uh... No. Just.... No. LOL!
And why the f!@# not? How else are you supposed to get them?
-
I think I have a comp coming up that likes underworld goods so I'm keeping them. If I do get one he/she'll be maxed out in about 5min.
-
First of all, you cannot get missions from tech parts. Secondly, there are no 10 crit companions in the game. And lastly, the legacy perk only affects crafting.
I am not getting them from the purple 340 slicing missions...which are supposed to drop mission discovery missions. Also, Theran Cedrax is +10 Slicing Crit. And, I read in the forums that the legacy perk is also for missions (even though it's not not worded that way). That may not be true.
-
Can someone please explain to me why 80% or so of my comp gifts I get are Imp Memorabila or Underworld Goods? Out of 16 comps, 1 likes Imp Mem (and he's maxed) and NOT ONE like underworld goods. Very frustrating. Funny thing is Imp Mem rarely dropped until my guy got maxed out. I was even buying them on the GTN cause they weren't dropping.

I am having a problem and it's frustrating the hell out of me. I am in a string of about 10 - 15 runs and have got one 340 purple mission discovery from a purple 340 slicing mission. I keep getting basic stuff back 4 blue slicing mats, 4 purple slicing mats and 1 lockbox with about 2k. I am making money due to the inflated price of might augments but very little when I am buying the missions for 65k and up. I am 400 slicing, 6k comp affection, +10 slicing crit comp, and even bought the legacy crafting crap.
-
That is a real pain. I just had 5 rich CG missions and nothing else. They really need to fix crew missions.
-
Still, it seems there should be rich and bountiful grade 6 missions though.
-
Devs have confirmed that's just a badly worded tooltip, it's 3% to crit for everything.
Ok...thx. It's not cheap but if it helps I guess it'll be worht it.
-
You get purples from critical results. Max out your companion affection, get the legacy perk, and you'll have plenty of purples.
Legacy Perk for crafting? The only thing i see is the 1% increase in the chance to augment.
-
I haven't seen bountiful missions, but on all of my characters, the level 6 companion gift missions are always rich.
Thats the problem. It's only the companion gift missions.

Has anyone noticed there are no Rich or Bountiful grade 6 crew missions? I have lvl 400 in Archeology, Underworld Trading, Scavenging, Treasure Hunting and Slicing and I am not getting Rich or Bountiful missions on any of them (except comp gifts). Has this always been and I just never noticed? My crafting skills are just catching up to my missions so I haven't needed that many high level grade 6 missions so I may have not noticed this all along. It seems we are being forced to do the Mission Discoveries to get the purple crafting supplies at grade 6.
Not getting mission discovery missions

Did you actually read my post? That's all i've been doing is running lockbox missions.
