Is it just me or does the loot drops seem scarce?
The problem is not that there is no good loot. It's just the fact that the roaming npc's [not only the elites. All the npcs] seem to forget to drop anything at all. Did two safehouses with Critical S&Ds and... the NPCs dropped almost nothing. From all the ~50 NPCs (6 S&D missions), I think only two or three of them actually dropped something. And that not counting those that were caught in fights on the street.
Almost every drop was gear. The dropped weapons were either SMGs or bad-roll shotguns.
I got more gear and gear set drops from the random trash mobs on the streets than from the npc's in the S&D missions.
Also, the mobs protecting the named elites seem to drop more items.
An approximate of what I got by simply looting around is:
- Many gear set drops [useless, most of them. On or two replaced the ones I got already equipped on me.]
- A bunch of gold gear that went to junk because the stats weren't good enough.
- Mods. Performance mods. A lot of them. But with attributes that I don't use.
No usable weapon, although. I simply had to buy an LVOA-C to have an AR viable for the scrap-build I have.
This is not a complaint. Just a simple report on my short experience of 1.4 on live.
Even the field/combat/crafting caches were full of gear and no weapons.
I think today is a gear day.
