    Survivalist Signature weapon drops

    I found it almost impossible to get drops for this class.

    Sharpshooter i almost got drops on every kill.

    Demolitionist also got alot of drops.

    But survivalist which i played on the demo for prob 30H of my 40-50h time on the demo and ran the Invaded mission atleast 30X I probably only got ~20 drops for my crossbow. i know it drops when you kill an enemy under status effect but there also RNG on top of that so it doesnt drop everytime. Feels like there is a 25% drop chance at best While other classes dropped so frequent i was full all the time and left special ammo on the ground because i could not pick it up.

    Also the Survivalist crossbow is kinda weak. I think it needs a pretty nice bumb in bower... Espacially when you compair it to the others.

    Further more The specialization Grenade is only can hold 1 grenade? Really? Atleast give us 2 or 3 of them and have them drop more often. As the only time i seemed to get a survivalist grenade was at the restock ammo case. i dont think i ever got a drop for one from an NPC. Only concussion grenade droped for me...

    and the fact that we dont have a wheel anymore kinda sucks. Atleast i hope you let us keybind the grenades like you did in TD1. After all you pretty much stripped us of all our grenades. Let alone 90% of the time i throw a grenade its so slow the NPC dodge it everytime.

    I also dont like the fact you took away the red circle and for some odd reason i feel the grenades never land anymore where i throw them. Its wierd. Like they always overshoot or dont hit the NPC even though they are clearly in the damage range.....


    I hope you can tweak the special ammo for survivalist class and give us more specialized grenades as 1 is not enough and id rather stick with the concussions. They do more DMG too... Finally if you dont want to give us a wheel atleast let us keybind them so we dont have toswap between the 2 diffrent grenades everytime we throw that just "1" special grenade that our class gives.


    Please dont say this was because of grenade spamming in PVP. This game is far from TD1 style of PVP and if thats the reason then change it for PVE and leave it alone for PVP....

    Survivalist: Go to LZ, shoot npcs in the ammo pouch and kill while burning or gassed.
    I don't know the limit of ammo to the special weapon but I did notice that I was above the starting 6 rounds, just killing npcs in the area outside the invasion mission.

    I played the Invaded mission as i said ~30x and it barely dropped for me for survivalist and i know the requirements to get the special ammo to drop. I dont want to have to "Get my special ammo before hand" When i can play sharpshooter or demolitionist and have special ammo rain on me during the mission.

    The Limit IIRC is 5 and one in the chamber. "or it might be 6 and 1 in the chamber" but i was only able to get 5 tops saved up.

    Either change the requirements or up the drop chance when killing a status effect NPC. Because alot of time i would kill 2-3 NPC under EMP effect and not get a drop do the same thing next time around and get 1. Doesn't make sense.

    and the Specialist grenades still stink. Only 1 is not enough with having to manual swap to the other grenade once you use it.
