Radzkie Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Well I for one like getting empty shells, jawa scraps, reputation items and garbage green gear in most of my crates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKilltech Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 why are you so enslaved to the though that you absolutely need this gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatguybil Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 What I don't get is they give you rep items that you're already at max rep for. At the very least if I'm at max rep and they should roll again on the loot table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakotajon Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 why are you so enslaved to the though that you absolutely need this gear? Would you do NIM in 210? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The system i retarded and if you guys cant promise me that i can have a full set before i go in to tier 2 i dont know if i can still do this. What is the rating of this set bonus item: 230, 240 ... What is the color: Gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKilltech Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 (edited) Would you do NIM in 210? NiM difficulty should be balanced around high player skill rather then stat requirements on gear. the former is obviously something associated with the word difficulty while the other is the opposite: even the most stupid bot will get it provided enough time was invested. otherwise its just pointless time wasting punching against damage sponges - my inverse idea of fun. i hope with the CXP change BW did ease up stupid gear requirements to play content. not everyone is a grind addict after all.

Costello Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Well I for one like getting empty shells, jawa scraps, reputation items and garbage green gear in most of my crates. This is what I've gotten in the last 10 or so crates. Unless you spend time working towards command rank and then just disintingrate the lot time and time again I don't think people can understand where the disappointment in this system comes from. It wouldn't be as bad if command rank itself provided some form of advancement (like the Elder Scrolls Online Champion system) or if the sc****** gave crystals that could be traded in so you were working for something tangible not another gambling crate through disintergration Or and this this the big one it wasn't 5 year old content. If the content was fun and new then it would be a pleasure just to run that content for the 500's time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhsknudsen Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Coming up on around lvl 20, got 1 set bonus so far and a lot of jawa crap. Also a lot of implants repeated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otaktey Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 This is exactly why Mass Effect 3 did not hold a multi-player base. Mass Effect 1-3 were totally cool games. The multiplayer sucked because of this same RNG loot system. I played for a few months, but when I realize that I wasn't ever going to get the one weapon I wanted out of the random boxes, I gave up and played something else. Overwatch uses a random box system, but it is all fun cosmetic stuff, as everyone's character is max stats at level 1. I can't even dream up an idea why Bioware thought it would be a good idea to use it is SWTOR. I took the box system coming for 5.0 to be like the DvL system, and thought that would be cool. It was fun working towards a free Cartel Market pack. I didn't realize it was going to be for all your gear, like in ME3. If I knew they were taking the raid gear vendors out, I would have already moved on from SWTOR, just like I moved on from ME3. The RNG system is very frustrating and no fun. You all will figure this out soon enough. But for now, have fun with the HOPE that you will get a full set of the gear you want with the stats you want on them. Maybe the next box you grind for will have that last piece your looking for . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teclado Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 (edited) Well once you hit tier 2 your chances of better gear increase. According to whom? I mean, of course the "better gear" in terms of un-optimized item rating improves. But what about set bonus?

Morteficare Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 The game will be dead before X-mas. This system is a killer. People manage to farm for 1-2 weeks and if there is no pay out for it people leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunderheid Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I've just put my main - command level 8 - on hold in his ship because my chances of getting anywhere in gearing him up in a reasonable time have taken a nosedive. I don't do PVP in any flavour, so this nerf and no doubt the ones to follow have made PVE in any flavour an unreasonably long grind. I'm currently levelling my alts to 70 or Ilum, which ever comes first. I won't be starting them on Galactic Command unless it gets a massive overhaul to make it worth even starting. If this means I won't ever see KotET, then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can play and level up to 70 if you want through the story, its a no brainer. Edited December 4, 2016 by SaerethDL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morteficare Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 So you meen it will feel beter if i only go for 4 comand lvls a day and after 10 days i still only got 1 item whit setbonus? So i will love it to know that after 70 days i will have a full set whit setbonus. If i still have the same droprate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I won't start on Galactic Command, and I believe my chances of reaching KotET before level 70 are slim. Hence 70 or Ilum whichever comes first.

Talk out that hole in yer rear alot i see, ME3 MP was the most successful part of the game with a core following still playing it to this day, it is the one aspect everybody agreed upon that was awesome to play, everyone that is except the babies here of which u include yourself Edited December 4, 2016 by evodude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
