All i know is that i have gotten more low req items than anywhere else in DoA. Got a q7/15al tac shield in The Hidden City of Ahdashim explorable though. Both in HM ofcourse.

To be honest, I've seen the drop in DoA for the most part. I can usually snag 1 every 3-4 runs on average. Plus I've been selling them for 20e on average a piece, so it is a nice little profit when you figure a DoA run only costs you 2-3k on average.

I get most of mine from PUGs. I scan drops, then go back and grab after ppl leave if there r any worth grabbing (Most ppl don't even check blue drops). As for good areas....I would suggest areas that drop the more favored skins. Since some skins are more common than others (skull..great conch) they will be of lesser value than others if u r looking to sell.

I was so game-poor that i would always stay after the run and pick up/salvage the drops after they left. Ah, good times Smithers........

I'm dirt poor in game...so scavenging for drops suits me just fine.

Don't forget bout those Command sheilds either. Some have nice skins and are sought after for pvp...or so I hear.

Got a q8/16 from nm Raptors (a happy accident I forgot to put it in HM.) A q7/15 Tribal dropped for me from an Ntouka in Turai's Procession nm at the weekend as I worked a new Para to DoA. I believe these shields drop more often than people think but just get missed.

I already drop 2 req7 AL 15 command shields in Fahanur, in Nightfall but sold both, the difference from a req 9 AL16 is too small that I preffer use my Tormented Shield. Try all in Nightfall, but in HM you can drop it in the first part of the campaing if you have lucky....
