I went all the way to Tier 5 Delta doing only the 20h Daily Rep Grind ... and got ZERO Ancient Power Cells along the way over the course of opening 50 reward boxes.
Kobali zone could use some "daily wrappers" like Defara has ... where you go there to run a daily hard job for some hard to find rewards, like the Ancient Power Cell
This would improve teaming, and make the zone more fun to visit after you have ran the story through it.
Another good reason to go there would be an improved amount of Spec XP be added to the ground jobs, same goes for the other Adventure zones like Defara, Nukara, Dyson Sphere & Mol Rihan.
Actually, I saw in the Rewards thread that they're looking at adding all of the premium Reputation components to solo missions, making obtaining them much easier.

You are free to play the level 60 PvEs that give them. Oh, let me guess you don't want to do that.
If you actually read OPs post, you'd see that he/she has the misfortune of the queues being more or less dead when he/she comes on due to time zone constraints (something I am familiar with due to my time zone as well).
And yeah, APCs are a pain to get. But then again, the gear they give you is supposedly incredibly good... so... yeah... stuff... XD
It is said the best weapon is one that is never fired. I disagree. The best weapon is one you only have to fire... once.

Honestly, I wish they would allow us to solo the normal level PvE (maybe scale them down some) and reward us with those high end power cells and such for spending two or more hours grinding those missions.
yeah getting APC's blow. I finally yesterday got the 5 I needed to get the Delta shield. And it's not like Bug Hunt elite or advanced is that hard if you got a team thats at least half Competent. But yesterday it was my Focus to get 5 of them.
And what happens the first 3 attempts at a PUG?
Game one....2 of the players have more then 6+ Injuries BEFORE the timer even counts down. (Walk away after fail for Cooldown timer)
Game two....3 of the players have Injuries, 1,3,7 a piece......
(Walk away after cooldown timer)
game Three....you get the picture.
Dispite it I still somehow managed to get 5 and move on. I wouldn't mind collecting the rest of the Rep gear. But, I really just wanted the shield on my Main toons. But, don't like ground enough to bother until they give them out another way.
I have 3 mains, so made each toon focus on getting 5 a day last few days. My 2 Engineers were a piece of cake. My Tac hates ground so...Yesterday was not a fun experience getting it done.
I've actually given up on the APC's. I don't remember when was the last time I got one, All I know is that it was in 2014. Getting a group together is not always easy and PUG's are akin to Russian roulette. Just not worth the time and effort.
