It seems like they are saying they don't, but they definitely do.

I don’t know if that is true they are doing gear score. I bring in a build each time now (anvil 4 and kettle 4) with mods and even a Wolfpack in my pocket with loot 2 aug, I get a lot of friendly in solo. When I get hit with PVP it’s some schlep free build that I kill.

I also say I’m questing or friendly in advance. The couple times they shot at me anyway I took them out and they were running free loads anyway.

Duos is another story. That seems to be straight pvp.

I had a really weird interaction a couple days ago. I was in buried city because I had a key to the locked room in the apartments. I hear some dude walking down the stairs with his lights on. I wave "hey raider". He pauses for a couple seconds, then suddenly drops dead. When I go to loot him, literally all he had on this body was a light shield and a snowglobe. Not even a free loadout module. I'm half convinced it was some type of bot lol

If they do, I can't really put my finger on the math.. because I almost exclusively do free kits on stella montis; atleast 90% of my playtime by this point.. and i'm running up against people with IV's more than half the games(synth fuel op).. I've had night's where i've been waxed all night long, and the needle doesn't move either.. the few times i've ran trials or helped friends w/ quests/items; both day and night, i'll run whatever kits i've had from those and don't even repair.. i'll kill people with free kits, then a group with 3's and 4's come flying in or the other way around.. it's been pretty consistently all over the place..

I've been seeing this sorta "meta" pop up recently with people talking, where you go in with essentially nothing and butt whatever valuable.. since if you don't do free loadout, you actually still have a butt slot. He potentionally got a blueprint and shield from looting and just dipped because there was no point in trying to fight you.. and just better to rinse repeat. The fact he also had a snowglobe makes it seem he was hitting residentials.. it's basically hatchet running, but arc raiders

Or could be a bot.. also heard that people are selling and buying blueprints ect.. wolfpack bp's are like 5$? whether that shit sells, idk lol.

Looter 2 so cheap, running that without a shield or with a light would also be worthwhile. I've done it while giving things to friends, but tried it once a twice kinda zero to hero and had some pretty fun rounds.

So this. I ran a few missions over lunch and 2 out of the 4 I spawned in at 18 minutes. Frustrating as shit.

I do not mind waiting 3-4 minutes for an instance to fill up. I would rather see it that way to get a 100% guaranteed full spawn every time than this coming in with 18 minutes left - especially if you have a decent load out.

Trials are in a weird state. I didn't even know they counted for the whole group until we completed the probes last night with Utnayan Utnayan . I thought it counted individually so solo play is at a disadvantage. I agree loading in with 18 minutes sucks especially when you want a full timer for Trials or hitting specific loot spots.

I saw a YouTube video which suggested keeping the free loadouts for the late spawns which would help.

Funny enough crazy team up with a random in a storm damn, 19 minutes, tried to get the deliverables done, but ended up 3 starring hornets and taking out a bastion. Took out a few more so I have bomb/bastion cells for gator or whoever.

Planted a mine on the bastions ass, shockingly survived that

Whelp expedition numbers dumber than imagined. 5million value, only 12 extra stache spaces. As bad as the skills are not sure youd even notice 5 extra points.

Yeah this game is toast. I think a lot of people would have reset and continued but this? Garbage. Sadly they could have easily sold some more 'Decks' if they had kept the people happy.

Points are permanent though so if you love the game, you can work yourself to a completely full skill tree. That's exactly what prestige options should be for.

I mean it isn't required - if you love the grind, then this may be worth it. If you don't play as often, this probably isn't worth it.
