    People said that about the volge battle rifles and the volge emergencies but I got them to fix the rifles and admit the truth about the emergencies. Hell, they say it about the majority of things I bring to dahanese's attention and despite their opinions, she makes sure they get fixed.

    Unlike you, I actually want them to fix these issues no matter how trivial you may think they are. And it's not only misleading, it's false advertisement because it does not increase rarity it increases the amount of drops.

    So I'll continue with my "unproductive" posts.

    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?

    As always, thanks Touch.

    Purchasing the "Increase the rarity of your drops" item will amount to an increase in scrip salvage...
    What do you do with salvage??
    You buy boxes!!!
    The more boxes you buy the better chance at oranges!!!
    Increase the rarity of your drops.

    That is all.

    If that is it really, it's cheesy and dishonest.

    Is it another 24hr boost?

    Sorry Trion but your boosts are a joke. i am not spending nearly 2 bucks of real currency per stat boost per day just so i can get a slightly better grenade or spike to drop that i wouldn't be able to pick up anyway. If the stats boosts lasted a week or more then i'd consider it, but 24 hrs? real time? not played time?

    Who runs that store?

    That is really shady. You know what's more shady? Having a game fail on basic levels (like having constant freezes, kicks, and errors) then asking people who bought your broken game to pay for additional content in DLC... and still not fix these basic problems. After not playing for six months, the sheer amount of stuff that still hasn't been fixed is absolutely disturbing.
    I totally wrote the first Defiance filk:

    Also, I used to recruit for the Anarcho-Syndicalist Revolutionary Union <ASRU Ark Hunters> (on 360 NA), but no one was interested, and I don't know if I'll ever bother playing again.

    Basically correct.
    You skipped over the part about how all loot doesn't salvage the same.
    Loot with actual better rarity salvages for more A/S.
    So it has a better trade-in value.

    If I'm going to farm a location and I walk away with 2 blue/5green/13white Vs 2green/18white they salvage for 7250 Vs 5500.

    That 1750 difference may be 'small', but it equals 7 white weapons.
    It also equals 'almost' 2 additional keys every trip through the farm.

    The only blues I see are spikes and stims, and an occasional grenade. (Yes, I see purple grenades. Lets leave that whole 'Grenades self-favorite, so salvaging requires me to make a trip thru the list to unfavorite them, and I have to run thru the salvage window every time I am faced with a duplicate for a grenade I've already harvested. NOT EXACTLY the 'Hey, we're Arkhunters, not accountants, we should be able to Arkhunt, not spend time in the inventory' PowShtako we were sold with the 'This is BETTER!!!11!1!' line.)
    If I could figure out how to strip all spikes/stims/grenades from all my load-outs, I'd be a happier pony from a farming POV. In fact, I'd be in comparative clover compared to now.
    These are just my opinions.
    I have lots of opinions.
    Some of them, on occasion, people have agreed with.
    I do not trust those people.

    NA/pc.
