Anyone find these missing synergy mods yet?

So, I'm getting to the point in the game where I want to start working on synergy weapons...
Thing is, having completed all available content that I am aware of, I have only been able to find five different types of synergy mods.

Those that I have found thus far:
Brutal, Synergy Mod Cache
Run & Gun, Synergy Mod Cache
Preparedness, Top Notch vendor
Scavenger, Soleptor vendor
Precision, VBI vendor

...but what about all the other ones? Just going over my inventory, I have seven other synergies that I have yet to see any sign of mods for (Outlaw, Veteran, Survivalist, Machinist, Quartermaster, Assassin, Cannoneer... and I'm sure there are a handful more.)

Has anyone actually found any mods for these synergies?
Is this DLC content and/or content that has been pulled from the game?



Side note: regarding the faction synergies (Preparedness, Scavenger and Precision) ... I highly recommend not touching them with a 10' pole. The mods you receive are non-tradable, and completely and totally random. The odds of getting what it is you seek is laughable at best. Assuming you are the luckiest person on Earth, the best you could ever hope for is a one month investment to attain both your choice in weapon and the four mods for it. It is far more likely that, even doing your dailies/weeklies for the next 6 months, you might have 1-2 mods at best.

They come in the random mod you purchase with your green bubbles. I have tons of all of those.

You can confirm that you have found Outlaw, Veteran, Survivalist, Machinist, Quartermaster, Assassin, and/or Cannoneer mods in the Synergy Mod Cache?

To date, I have only ever found Brutal and Run & Gun in the cache .... and I'm talkin' probably 20 or so purchased between beta and live.

Yeah I've only ever gotten the brutal synergy mods in over 30 synergy mod caches. Has gotten annoying since I have no interest in adding melee.

This is just a wild guess but it might be an ego level thing. I noticed that I started looting much more green and blue items as my synergy raised, perhaps there are thresholds at which the other options are added into the random chance?

Pretty crap system if it is that, just throwing ideas out...

If that is the case, then why have the weapons roll with those synergies before said EGO Rating? ...and where would you attain the mods? The only way to reliably get mods after you have completed the content is through synergy boxes and hotshot/rampage challenges.

By the by... I'm EGO Rating 1286 atm. If it is indeed based on ER, then they set that bar awfully high.




Also, I've heard a couple of people now state that they have found mods of various qualities that show no synergy until viewed in the Add Mods tool in the Salvage Matrix. I've gone through my entire inventory's worth and found nothing to support that claim.

This morning I had the epiphany that, maybe they are all just bugged and non-visible like this. In that case, there could only be one source for them; rampage challenges. I logged on, went and did a few to gold completion and... nope, nothin'. I did a Hotshot or two as well, but figure this can't be a source as they reward mods for specific gun types, and there isn't one for every type... still nothin'. These things are just flat out missing.

From all the vendors i only get the brutal mods in those boxes! (The reputation vendors i havent tried but saw that some list their mod types if you read box descriptions) so a little annoyed think i have gotten 30ish brutal so far! :(

Yesterday you could buy a Purple gun with the Machinist synergy mod for 5k scrips on a vendor as Sale item lol.
So far I have also seen several guns drop with various synergy mods and they were all crap really. :-(

But mehh... enough has already been said about the itemization and progression in this game.

I have gotten 2 different Scavenger one for sniper rifle from finishing side quests.

It could be that they are bugged. I know they've had to adjust the weight of weapons and shields in the boxes so you aren't only getting shields and grenades.


Could be the synergy mod cache is heavily weighted towards giving brutal currently.
