bryanfury_vas_Qwib_Qwib Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I've been basically trying to farm plastids for the past three hours now and have barely gotten around 230. I've been going to Uranus, Eris, and Saturn and have tried different missions as well but they barely seem to drop at all. On Uranus, polymer bundles are dropping much more now it seems compared to plastids where before it felt the other way around. I'm just wandering if this is happening to anyone else or maybe it has always been like this but I just never payed much attention to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimmShadows Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 It is the same for the non-rare mat drops. Advice to you is to farm the rare drops first before they fix the drop rate =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kynian Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) It is the same for the non-rare mat drops. Advice to you is to farm the rare drops first before they fix the drop rate =P The rare mat fiasco has been fixed. Pretty much all is back to normal now. Or close to it anyway. I'm hurting for plastids myself, been a pain to find them for a bit. Maybe it's always been like this before and I didn't notice (because I didn't need plastids back then). But sure feels like a slave labor to get plastids right now. I've been getting a ton of polymer in it's place though.

crow-k Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I get less than 100 on a 1-5 or 10 xini, but they can be found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonicDoragon Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Plastids feel like(if not are) the new alloy plate. Though unlike alloy plates, they don't have a secondary component that at least offsets the uncommon rank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulEchelon Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Gonna go ahead and bump this. Plastids are horrendously rare. I get more Detonite than plastids per run at Uranus. Even higher level places like Eris barely drops them at all. Why the change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeteorKing Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Last night I ran xini 1-20, 1-15, and 1-10 trying to get plastids. Went into it with 218 and by the end I had 242. That's 1 drop... I got more neurode drops than I did plastid drops... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One type of taco on the menu as opposed to barrels full of burgers. Plastids is that taco. Polymer Bundle are the burgers... ...I was hungry when I posted this.

rocket156 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) yeah and where is the polymer bundles i alot of those and circuits. i get nothing but maybe 50 of each every other round. Edited July 24, 2013 by rocket156 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGambler_BR Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Plastids were used for so many of the BPs I made recently, that I ran completely dry And then Nova shows up, and you need 600 plastids for one of its BPs. I gave up farming and bought some with plat. 300 plastids for 30 plat. Rip-off, but I was tired of the slave labor that was farming them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket156 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) oh look another mission with only 50 or less polymer bundle and i have master thief and thief's wit on and i search everywhere and still only 50 per mission. they have messed up the drop tables.....but this has be going on for like 4 days now. and yet they still haven't fixed it Edited July 24, 2013 by rocket156 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
