Anyone else feel like targeted loot in missions is weaker since Thursday update? | Forums

It would really be nice if you ran the mission, to get ONLY the targeted loot. They are so inefficient that I've pretty much stopped playing the game except for an occasional raid at this point.

That might not be enough. As LubzinNJ pointed out with the blueprints, the 'randomness' of the RNG isn't a uniform distribution of outcomes. It comes out as very selective, and hence, 'weighted' RNG. If there was also 100% uniformity in the distribution of outcomes, I think players would find it far more palatable.

Loot in this game has gone down hill since TU6, i hope i am wrong but i don't think this game will survive over christmas, they need to change the loot system as a priority.

Loot is not RNG , there is nothing random about it , The loot table changes with the maintenance every week or so, this week has been the worst ever ... Most purples and lowest scores in loot i have seen from the alpha .

Will see what happens with the loot next maintenance ?..

i didnt play much this weekend but the only way i can see the drops getting weaker is if they dont drop anything at all. Getting bored again and pretty much only logged in to see what cassie and Thieves den had to offer, almost given up on even picking up loot from the real world other than for resources. Its just a waste of time.

I ran Jefferson on challenging when the allocated loot was Airaldi for the mission and got 1 piece for the whole run, yes 1 piece which is ridiculous. I also think something has changed with the allocated loot drops since last week.

good to know I'm not the only one noticing this. would love to get someone from UBI/Massive to chime in on this.

I stopped doing level 4 control points solo because of the Nerf... used to get 8 to 12 targetted loot items but now I barely get 4. I know there were some people exploiting them like the 'loot caves' but why punish us All?!?!

I don't even do Heroic Missions solo as the rewards are just as bad as Challenging. I also used to rarely get more than 3 to 5 drops before patch and now I get maybe 2...

Something Definitely Changed....

Well, you naughty, naughty little gamer. Players that enjoy TD series seem to respond to being punished. They keep it playing the games anyway.

The difference is Heroic you get 1 more piece of gear of the same junk.

CP4 rewarding purple's and 480-495 gear, what a bunch of crap, and **** rolls on everything. I can't stomach this game much longer. But even if you max a build there isn't much to do..same ol missions without a challenge and I crossed off DZ and pvp a long time ago, I am on PC, I have my reasons

I haven't noticed personally. I always get ~10 targeted items per run in missions, and the other night I was doing open world targeted RK farming with a friend, in an hour or so of doing like 3 CP3/4s and various open world stuff I saw probably 20-30 RK pieces. That's plenty for me, considering before you could go a whole night and not even see a brand you were trying to get.
