planet_J Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I just bought 2 of these for a total of 72 planetary comms...supposed to be item roll level 53. I was trying to gear up some companions. I got 2 birthright construction kits...back to back!!! What garbage is this? Item roll level 53 Artifact grade gives a worthless level 35ish construction kit?? I only have about 15 of these worthless things in my stash from Cartel Packs. I don't agree with it, but I understand. Cartel packs are completely random...yadda, yadda...ok. However, a level 53 artifact grade box should not have a level 35 anything in it!!!!! What's worse about this, is I cannot recoup my planetary comms...and I cannot sell the stupid kits...and the gear I will get out of turning the kits in is worthless and of low value anyway. This is a poor execution of loot tables. I feel completely cheated that I used basically all my planetary comms to get 2 worthless kits that I will never use, and I won't even get equivalent level gear out of them. I understand you guys want to push the legacy gear, etc. A level 53 artifact box should have a small chance for level 50 legacy gear...NOT A LEVEL 35 KIT!!! PLEASE!!! Take this trash out of the loot tables...you will be doing many more players a favor!!!! I understand if I bought a level 35 artifact box, I would get something like that...ok...I get it...but it is not useful to have less than equivalent level gear in the advertised level box. /RANT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackavaar Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Yeah, since the "expansion" all level 50 and above Boxes seem to reward only Birthright and Legacy garbage. For now, it's best to buy the lower level Boxes from the other Planetary vendors to get something you can at least sell. This needs to be fixed, BioWare. Not everyone plans on a rolling up a brand new alt so that they can make use of the Birthright crap for all of 4 levels. Some players don't roll alts at all. And no one buys this crap on the GTN.

planet_J Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 If you could atleast vendor the stupid kits for like 10k each or something it wouldn't be so bad...but as it is...these things are virtual paper weights...nothing more...they take up stash space and you can't unload them without going to DK or Coruscant, and running to the vendor to burn them up and sell the gear for 1k each... I would have rather gotten non-moddable level 50-51 purple gear for a companion than this worthless junk. If Birthright gear was level 50 maybe it would be worth it too...either way...I am very disappointed with the sequence of events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalhazar Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I bought one of these, thinking at least I'd get something more useful than a grade 25 armoring/mod/etc. It had a grade 25 armoring inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Exar Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) I got an Offhand birth right thingy and a pet dog.....Not that I'm complaining about the dog. But it was just another recolor of a pet I already had. And it was bound...oh wait I'm complaining. Edited April 19, 2013 by Darth_Exar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sobur Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Yeah i don't bother with those anymore or crew missions for lockboxes. Why run a mission at 450 skill level to get lv49 green gear? lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidichIorian Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Bought one and got that damn czerka crate-o-matic box again. That is the most pointless thing ever. I tossed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wainot-keel Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Same here. When 2.0 hit I was capped of those comms. Went to the vendor's and bought one. "Crap, not this garbage. " These are rather rare drop, right ? So I bought another one. " what the f...... ? fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu !!!" I destroyed both items right there. Even the dialog asking for confirmation felt trollish. Someone is laughing real hard at BW. Seriuosly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadOrb Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Those 72 comms could of bought one of your companions 7 armoring mods Cheers, BadOrb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planet_J Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 Exactly BadOrb, I could have gotten something useful...instead, I got garbage....they should put a requirement of the item level on these things...cannot be below 50 or whatever. Birthright kits are not level 50 gear BW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asavrede Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 If anything BW should add a third tier of legacy alt gear - like level 42-45'ish, to last you up to close to 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eillack Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 All boxes post 2.0 suck to be honest. When I leveled my main on Makeb, those darn 50+ boxes gave me either vendor trash or 49 or under crap gear. Better to just buy mods that you don't need and let the timer run out.

planet_J Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 I am beginning to notice this myself...you don't ever even get anything remotely close to level...period...what is up with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrUberGr Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 A guildie got the Hyrotii Scrapper and the Lobelot pet from it. As far as I recall, I got a 25 armoring, a birthright and some other useless thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twickers Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Have to admit I've gotten nothing but that worthless birthright gear that I don't use despite being an altoholic to the extreme, it's very aggravating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
