    Is It Even Worth Opening Faction Lockboxes At All?

    While playing Challenging I'm not seeing loot look remotely rewarding for opening these boxes which resets each day to open. These not worth opening at all? I wish someone like these has a better chance at named gear or higher god roll stat chance.

    Hyena ones for Chatterbox not included since it just parts to get a blueprint of that exotic and after that it falls with every other faction boxes

    Its just an extra loot source. Its also where Acosta's Go Bag comes from (faction chests) if you still need 1 of those.

    To be honest I haven't seen a loot box that's worth opening yet, hoping it will change in TU10.

    if you have the keys then use them. I have maybe 30 of the black tusk keys along with a lot of others. But, I never have outcast keys for some reason.

    The gear and weapons in them 99% of the time are useless. But you can get Acosta's Bag and exotic from them, and deconstruct it to reroll another exotic.

    I have gotten some of my best gear mods from them.

    Never knew how and where I gotten my Acosta exotic from. I may need to move that to my other Agent so that I can have two minimum on me. On this subject I wouldn't worry of rerolling near best roll Acosta down to bad rolls for tempting my luck with reconfigure

    before this current patch I got a pestilence out of one at a territory control activity. During this current patch, it's where all of the Acosta bags I got dropped

    If i stumble upon one, i open it. But i never go actively hunt for them.
    It's very rare when i get something useful out of them but i always have that weird tingling sensation around my scrotum before i open one. So why not?

    I got an acosta's go-bag from one once, otherwise same stuff you get anywhere else. Sometimes I wonder if the vendor is the real endgame content, all these missions and stuff we're doing is just to collect gear and weapons to keep him in business. They could almost make that a game in itself, maybe we get to see financial statements each week, customer satisfaction surveys, once in a while, and his success depends on the quality/quantity of gear we bring him. The better his business does, the better gear he has available for us, maybe even take requests after we've helped him enough (another form of targeted loot). He definitely has a good attitude, in the end he's just happy to have made a deal.
