    It was a rhetorical question..we already know it is intentional.

    Blood from a stone, Trion...

    You won't squeeze people into paying cash for bit boxes and arkforge if they weren't already willing to do so before the drops were nerfed to oblivion.

    You will, however, find you have been very successful at alienating those who find enough enjoyment in the game to keep their patron status active..

    Good job.

    It's a contest. The 5 lucky people who pull T5 Recoil stocks all get a tour of Trion's HQ and 1 them will someday inherit the company.

    Half of zero is still zero.

    For me it's a sniper recoil stock. I'm not sure that it matters because I'll never actually use the Dirac. I don't think it's going to get easier to find mods because there's almost no one playing the event majors anymore. Tuesday afternoon I played a major in SV that was threat level 8 for the first few minutes. I really wish I hadn't renewed my patron pass through the next event, I no longer " find enough enjoyment in the game" to log on to get the loyalty. Sorry for hijacking your thread to whine, but its a good description of how I feel about the game. Too much stick not enough carrots. Anyway, I think I'm about done.

    It's weird because I asked in clan chat and it seemed a common issue. I have so many pistols from this event (2 Plancks, 1 Einstein, several OJs) yet very few recoil stock mods. Right now, I'd even settle for greens...

    Maybe people should stop throwing away the t3 mods and hold onto them until you find something better. Spoiled players many have become. Especially the new breed. I ran around with quality T3 and t4 weapons till I was close to 5k but that was before free to play and rarity upgrades. You just have to learn to adapt.

    I guess it depends on how much space you have and whether you try to use scrap weapons as mod holders etc.

    Also, when you get to 6K and have a decent set of weapons etc (and limited inventory space), I think you can be more choosy about which items you keep :).

    My (current) general system for mods:
    1. Keep greens and use them when the opportunity arises.
      Pre-Armistice (ie. during Colony Courtship) I was getting enough blues to auto-salvage greens. Armistice decided to give me mostly greens so I switched auto-salvage to whites.
    2. If I get blue mods, I either salvage the green equivalent (to make inventory space) or replace the green mods on weapons.
    3. Use blue mods on purple and OJ weapons, and save purple mods for JPs. If I get an OJ equivalent of a purple weapon, I may retreive the mods from the purple weapon.
    4. OJ mods are so rare, they don’t even factor into the system :eek:. I have only received them from the Bargain Boxes or bought them from Chimera/Paradise vendors.

    For me anything below blue is auto salvage eighth sucks because I would love the scrip but only so much inventory space and only greens I ever want are the catalyst and catalytic mags for increases increased effect triggering. I don't think those come in t3.

    its not pistol, its the recoil stocks in general. whichever weapon you choose, you still have HARD time finding recoil for it.

    i feel like either somebody overnerfed the rolls, or we're on the brink of another "stop giving me bolt action repeaters" failure.
