You're wrong. I used to get crossbow drops all the time using status effects. Something is definitely bugged.Originally Posted by Neo_Wildcard Go to original post
Yeah, ^ that.Originally Posted by Neo_Wildcard Go to original post
Did the DCD HQ mission last night and was leaving crossbow ammo on the ground near the end. Did the Viewpoint Museum the previous day and got plenty there too. Either the wardogs were dropping it or the guy next to it was when the wardog blew after the shock routine. Seem to get better results with shock (the red boxes on the wall, the wardogs, and the shock ammo) but also pick it up in the street after fire-grenading roaming patrols.
********. It's either a bug or they reduced the rate purposefully. There's no way in hell this is just bad luck. The standard deviation is too high for that.
I just did a search, and it was already an issue at least once very recently: https://www.pcgamesn.com/the-divisio...alist-ammo-bug
This might be the same issue that hasn't been fixed yet, or at least not completely.

I did a side mission today and had crossbow ammo drop from an NPC that I hit with explosive rounds. Yesterday I had it dropping from NPCs that were shocked.
Meanwhile, while enroute to the side mission, a fire-grenade and AR took out a patrol of four hyenas and resulted in zero crossbow ammo. I'll start paying attention to what status effects drop and don't drop the ammo but I'm thinking you've just been cursed by RNG.
