Loot
From SWG Wiki
After you defeat a MOB, a yellow disk will appear above thier corpse. When that yellow disk appears, it indicates that the corpse contains an item or items that can be taken by your character. This is called "looting".
Sometimes all the corpse will have is Credits. Sometimes they will only have junk. But, sometimes they will have items that may be of use to your character or other characters.

[edit] Types of Loot
[edit] Armor with stats
Sometimes MOBs will drop armor pieces that will enhance your character's attributes when equipped. However, there are species, career/profession, and CL restrictions on this armor.
[edit] Broken Kit
e.g.
- Broken meson telecope
- Broken binoculars
Some broken kit can be fixed. Some can't.
To repair a Broken Datapad you need:
- Datapad Housing (Container)
- Broken Datapad
- Datapad Battery
- Datapad Connectors
- Datapad Backlight
To repair a Corrupt Datadisk you need:
- Datadisk Repair Kit
- Corrupt Datadisk
- Magnetic Reader
- Magnetic Burner
- Wiring (just wiring, not blue or red, which are used in Recyclers)
- Recovery Software
You can repair Viewscreens and print your own pictures using a Printing Kit
[edit] Clothing with stats
Just like armor with stats, sometimes MOBs will drop clothing that will enhance your character's attributes when equipped. Clothing with stats don't have career/profession restrictions, but they may have species and CL restrictions.
[edit] Credits
Most NPC's have Credits (even those without pockets).
[edit] Junk loot
Some items have no real purpose other than to be sold to a Junk Dealer or as a decoration. These items are referred to as Junk
[edit] Loot cards
Cards that are found in Trading Card Game booster packs, which can be redeemed for in-game rewards.
[edit] Rare Loot
Even though loot is random, some items have a higher chance of not being looted. Items that it may take 20+ kills to obtain just to obtain one. Or, items that you can only obtain by defeating a Boss. An example of rare loot would be the Robe of the Storm Callers, which can only be looted from a Boss NPC.
[edit] Schematics
Unlike schematics that are usually granted to Traders, some of these schematics may be used by other careers/professions. Sometimes, these schematics also require other looted items.
[edit] Space loot
When you destroy an enemy ship in space, the loot is automatically placed in your inventory. Items looted in space are usually things that you can use to fix up your ship, and/or may be credits.
[edit] Stims
Stims are items that can temporarly give your character a boost to thier attributes.
[edit] Weapons
Some Weapons can be crafted, some can be quest rewards, and some can be looted.
[edit] Loot Kits
Some loot can be combined into a loot kit to produce a rare furniture item, such as a Nabooian Sculpture or a Blue Rug. These kits are usually given away by Junk Dealers for free, however, you can only have one kit per time in your inventory. See Loot Kit for more information.
