“The Rakata (also known as the Builders), were a humanoid species with distinctive amphibian features. They were a scientifically advanced race that developed early in galactic history, even developing some early hyperdrive technology. Long term use of the dark side of the Force corrupted their society and turned them into a race of merciless warriors. The Rakata used their potent Force-powered technologies to conquer and enslave every other species they came across throughout their known galaxy. During the reign of their Infinite Empire, they were characterized by their cruelty, savagery, and arrogance. They were known to strip entire planets of their resources, terraform worlds to fit their own shifting needs, kill entire slave workforces, and to eat and defile the bodies of slain enemies.” – Wookieepedia: The Star Wars Wiki http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Rakata
In EV NIM 16m it dropped from SOA yesterday
SOA drop a stack of 8 in EV NIM 8man
4 On HM
is it bound ?
No, they are not bound. To clarify, these drop in a stack (I’ve never seen a stack smaller than 4) off Soa on both HM and NiM – 100% drop rate from what I’ve seen. One roll wins them all. If you run with a guild (or cool PUGs) you can split the winnings among half the ops group.
Anyone know if these drop in SM?
This is a list of my runs and loot;
16/16 HM: 8 Mind Traps, 2 Statues
4/8 NiM: 8 Mind Traps, 2 Statues
4/8 NiM: 4 Mind Traps, 1 Statue, 2 Pylons
4/8 HM: 8 Mind Traps, 1 Statue, 3 Pylons
my guess that between NiM and HM its random whether you get 8 or 4 (1 stack keep in mind, but on my 4 man runs I divide them up evenly so everyone is guaranteed at least one trap (and it makes for good advertising since Traps are un-tradeable(haven’t actually tried but since I can’t sell on the GTN…).
Hope this helps
Would I be correct in guessing it has a 100% drop rate?
No, unfortunetly not, I jut did 16man NiM in a group of 4, we got 4 pylons, 2 statues and 4 mind traps. No gauruntee on any of the drops, it’s vrey random. Goodluck!
I hate that these drop as a stack. I did him last night and our crappy tank (my merc had 7k more HP then he did) that we pulled through the op won the stack of 4 and a statue of Soa and wouldn’t even SELL me a mind trap. “I had plans for it as soon as we went in.” I HATE tanks, I’ve never met one that was a cool person. It must be their personality type that makes them want to tank. Ran over.
