Dev Post EricMusco Posted January 20, 2017 Dev Post Share Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) Hey folks, As explained in our Galactic Command Thread, Unassembled Gear Pieces are a way for players to work towards getting a specific gear slot and tier. Below you will find a list of each Operation boss that has a guaranteed drop of the pieces, and which one they drop. Note that only the last boss of each Operation is guaranteed, but every other boss has a chance to drop any slot. Each of these bosses will drop two pieces in 8-man and four pieces in 16-man. Here are the drops for Tier 1 and Tier 2 gear which come from Story and Veteran difficulty respectively: Implant/Earpiece: Eternity Vault – Soa (The Infernal One) Relic: Karagga’s Palace – Karagga the UnyieldingChest: Explosive Conflict – Warlord KephessLegs: Terror From Beyond – The Terror From BeyondHands: Scum and Villainy – Dread Master StyrakBoots: The Dread Fortress – Dread Master BrontesHead: The Dread Palace – The Dread MastersOff-hand: The Ravagers – RuugarMainhand: Temple of Sacrifice – RevanBracer: Makeb – The Golden Fury (and Eyeless from the Rakghoul event)Belt: Ziost – Worldbreaker Monolith (and Xenoanalyst from the Gree event) Here are the drops for Tier 3 which come from Master difficulty unless otherwise noted: Relic and Implant: Explosive Conflict – Warlord KephessLegs and Earpiece: Terror From Beyond – The Terror From BeyondHands and Chest: Scum and Villainy – Dread Master StyrakBoots and off-hand: The Dread Fortress – Dread Master BrontesHead and mainhand: The Dread Palace – The Dread MastersImplant (chance to drop in Veteran mode): The Ravagers – RuugarRelic (chance to drop in Veteran mode): Temple of Sacrifice – RevanBracer (chance to drop in Veteran mode):: Makeb – The Golden Fury and Eyeless from the Rakghoul eventBelt (chance to drop in Veteran mode):: Ziost – Worldbreaker Monolith and Xenoanalyst from the Gree event Let me know if you have any questions or anything is unclear. Thanks everyone! -eric Edited January 20, 2017 by EricMusco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerba Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) Thank you very much for the list! This is a major help so we can plan raid lockouts ahead of time. My raid group is probably going to get Tier 2 setbonus pieces from VM and swap them into Tier 3 pieces at the PvP vendor since we have no chance to kill MM endbosses in an acceptable time. We'll still have to figure out what bosses to kill for maximum loot in the shortest time, but we'll probably settle on EC, TFB, DF and DP. The DPS check on Styrak is way too high (and clearing a 7-boss instance takes too long), and Rav/ToS are not required for the setbonus, so we'll skip those three. Not sure how I feel about the single boss instances; Eyeless is 10x easier than the other ones, so it seems strange that it would drop the same loot as Monolith. Let me know if you have any questions or anything is unclear. Thanks everyone! Will the bosses drop the legendary (236/242) or the artifact (234/240) pieces? In the December livestream, I believe you said it would be the best from the tier, aka legendary, but a clarification would be nice.

DarthZaul Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Ears, Implant and Relics are the best things to drop from EV and KP - Can easily get the items on alts that can't be legacy mailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks everyone! -eric Yeah, were y'all smoking good stuff when you came up with this table? I hope all of you have been polishing your resumes. I expect EA isn't going to take kindly to the sub losses you aren't going to recover from with this new "fix". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britharen Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Hey folks, ... Implant/Earpiece: Eternity Vault – Soa (The Infernal One) ... Relic and Implant: Explosive Conflict – Warlord Kephess -eric You have two different ways to display the dropping of two slots' gear tokens. Is there a difference? Also, when two slots are listed does this mean that 4 tokens drop(2x2) in 8m or 8 tokens(4x2) in 16m? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elssha Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Eric; 1) I believe you meand Collosal Monolith, not Worldbreaker (the WB)? 2) So will we be able to mix methods? Will I be able to take a 236 I got from a crate and upgrade it to a 242 via PvP? Or one I got from Ops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halinalle Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) My thoughts exactly. Not the best system to encourage solo players. Yeah, not for solo players who want to do ops. You really have to be in guild with dedicated group(s). Since it's already so difficult to get group running it's not worth it to even start one.

Tsillah Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Implant/Earpiece: Eternity Vault – Soa (The Infernal One) Here are the drops for Tier 3 which come from Master difficulty unless otherwise noted: Relic and Implant: Explosive Conflict – Warlord KephessLegs and Earpiece: Terror From Beyond – The Terror From BeyondHands and Chest: Scum and Villainy – Dread Master StyrakBoots and off-hand: The Dread Fortress – Dread Master BrontesHead and mainhand: The Dread Palace – The Dread Masters Hi Eric, So how does this work? These bosses have two items attached to them. Does this mean these bosses drop both items guaranteed or is it a guaranteed drop but which piece drops is random? Clearly if it's the latter, you may still not be able to get the piece you want if it drops the implant when you need the earpiece...

If you need earpiece maybe you're doing the wrong operation then? You mean relic? Edited January 21, 2017 by Halinalle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So let me humour you. Please tell me which tier 1 or 2 bosses drop implants and earpieces as a guaranteed drop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halinalle Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) I see, you want Soa to drop tier 3 in Veteran mode. 224 gear from EV and KP was a big mistake and it's very good thing they are moving away from that disaster.

No I don't. Are you really this bad at reading? What I'm saying is that in tier 1 and 2 the only reliable boss for implants and earpieces is Soa. So I want to know if he drops both at the same time or if it's a 50/50 thing which makes it less reliable. Can you manage that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsillah Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Wellits nice u give raiders and pvpers a way to get specific pieces but u forgot about solo players who r not raiding or pvping Well, what would solo players need then? I mean solo players have no actual need for any endgame gear, but I don't mind them having this gear either. I mean, it's kinda fun to gear up characters, whether you need it or not. And it can make up in part for a lack of skills for anyone. But since their situation has already been improved by GC overall by making endgame gear accessible to solo players outside of ops and pvp, what more is needed in your opinion?
