Whats Scrip useful for?

I know you can use it to buy items from vendors but to be honest I haven't seen much from vendors that I've been interested in buying. You get better items from loot drops.

aside from buying stuff from vendors it's main appeal IMO is buying stuff on the forums on the forums...

So really all its useful for is trading with other ark hunters? I haven't traded at all yet and from what I've seen price wise on here I dont see that changing. I'd rather earn my own orange items (not had any yet lol) than pay 100k+ scrip. Not that I could, the most scrip I've ever had is about 20k and I'm EGO 700 lol.

It's useful for mods at vendors...I make a round every day to as many vendors as possible to see what the specials are. I have found some really good blue mods by doing this. I just recently bought 2 blue mods for my detonator at vendors. The better vendors and specials are at the hidden vendors. There are 3 of them and they always have 3 specials instead of 1 or 2 like most vendors. It's a crapshoot. Some days I find some good mods in their specials, and some days I find nothing. I've had some luck recently though.

I'll keep my eye open for mods at vendors but TBH the only thing I think I've bought from vendors was a Duni.

I have loads of Purples from just playing the game. I honestly haven't seen a vendor selling any weapons I'd be interested in.

Mods at Vendors, the occassional appealing weapon like a syphon element combat shotgun, vehicles, lock boxes.

I always seem to find a use for scrip since I never have a lot of it on hand.

Still not sure how this works on the vendor sales...I can be grouped with friends and they see totally different sales at vendors then me...I wonder if its all individual based or what...same as drops in instances I see different things then they do...which is good cause I don't want to fight for drops
