Mallorik Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 From the patch notes: Slicing •Slicing missions will now correctly populate the level 25–32 mission level drop down when reaching skill level 125. •Increased the number of Bio–Mechanical Interface Chips and Thermal Regulators provided as rewards for level 400+ Slicing missions. Im still getting 2 thermal regs from bountiful and 4 from rich crits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlownSi Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 At least you are getting some. I have not gotten any for 3 weeks now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthTHC Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I don't run the bountiful still and yep still 4 from the rich. What's worse, over 48 iterations of the Rich so far, I'm critting 25% less on it, my cost on Thermal Regulators has increased by about 33%.

amneonx Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I think its just a matter of bad luck, in the last 3 days, I've gotten about 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyzen Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I've been running bountiful and rich missions every couple of hours for the last 2 days. I got 4 regulators. It can be frustrating, even if it is 'luck'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckly Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 just got 6 today seems like its been increased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVaglin Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I think that patch note refers to mission discoveries, as them have been increased apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthTHC Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Will you people ever cease to not cry about something? I see a lot of information sharing. I don't see any tears. Good businesspeople don't cry about change. They just figure it out and update their business model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billygreat Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I think they fixed the wealthy mission, now you get 6 regulators without a crit ( as opposed to 2 before the patch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zohkar Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Does taking the perk to buy crit work on slicing missons or just on crafted items? Think I asked a couple weeks ago but never got a response. I know the two characters that should be critting on slicing continue to fail, but my guy that is archalogy crits all the darn time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannycarr Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'm still having issues, not had a crit for days, and its really annoying as I have a load of new gear to augment up...... Since the patch I haven't had one crit, I was getting more the week before the patch. Maybe its Bad luck but this just getting to be a bit of a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm-Cutter Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 4 Thermal regulators in 60+ missions. NOT 4 successful missions. 4 Thermal regulators. Crewskills at max, affection at max. Crit chance at max.... I'm now just grinding the dailies and buying the things. It's a better business model IMHO. - Besides prices have dropped to around 35-37K each on my server (Progenitor) Yes dailies are a grind.... But sometimes you get some nice loot, basic comms, reputation credit and the occasional lockbox, and oftentimes an ad-hoc group up with someone nice....

Cupelixx Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 •Increased the number of Bio–Mechanical Interface Chips and Thermal Regulators provided as rewards for level 400+ Slicing missions. Im still getting 2 thermal regs from bountiful and 4 from rich crits. This exact same patch note was in 2.0.1. I believe they have already increased the yield and this is erroneous. I saw more thermals after 2.0.1. This patch note may refer to discovered missions. I haven't tried one yet. I also have not seen a change in the number of crits I get since 2.1.0. Either way, having the same note on 2 different patches is confusing and needs to be clarified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much effort for too little return. 69 (Rich) missions = 40 Thermal Regulators = 6,710 credits per unit Most missions run on +2 Crit companions; all on 10k affection ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunoLogan Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I didn't get a single Thermal Regulator since 2.1 went live! Not a single one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthTHC Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) I didn't get a single Thermal Regulator since 2.1 went live! Not a single one! Which pet(s) are you running the mission, "Unsliceable?" on? What is their affection? How many times have you run that mission?

DarthVengeant Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) Will you people ever cease to not cry about something? So, posting a problem with the game is now "crying:? Maybe you enjoy running 60 slicing missions without one single Thermal Augmentor and all that money gone? Because, that's what has happened to me. Iv'e not got one single Thermal since 2.1 running slicing every day multiple times across two toons. So, this is "crying" heh? Grow up man. All companions are maxed affection, all screw skills are 450. Not one single Thermal drop running Rich or Bountiful Yield missions since the day 2.1 hit. Over 60 missions, and not one. I can;t do the crafting I need to do because of this.....but I guess that is "crying". Edited May 18, 2013 by DarthVengeant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigDiath Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I'm getting bigger returns on Thermal Regs now. I've gotten 8 in the past 24 hours without slicing missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernost Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Its the same as before the patch for me, have gotten none except for the discovered missions & based on the rapidly falling prices of Bio-Mechanical Interface Chips on my server I'm not the only one.

Ausgelebt Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Only run "Watching the Watchdogs" and "Unsliceable?" along with discoveries. Get several hacking toons. If you don't have the missions up, run all missions, go to ship, abort the crappy ones and take the good ones. Repeat. Profit. I got one slicing toon and get between 8 and 20 thermal regulators a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have the missions up, run all missions, go to ship, abort the crappy ones and take the good ones. Repeat. Profit. I got one slicing toon and get between 8 and 20 thermal regulators a day. For the sake of the argument, lets say those two missions have a 20% crit rate with full affection. Crits return between 2 and 4 Thermal Regulators. 20 TRs would require about 7 crits. Which would, at the 20% rate, generally take 35 missions. You can run two at a time with one toon, and they take an hour to run. So, 14 hours a day? Must be nice not needing a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
