How was extra green loot weekend for you?

[ctabako]

The problem is you're buying lock boxes that aren't Tier 4. Tier 4 is the way to go. Don't think that the lower price means you're getting a deal. Your chances are way higher at getting better loot with the Tier 4.

Every single orange my brother got was out of a T3 box. The two orange BMGs I got were from T3 boxes.......

After about 6 hours or so of redoing missions and not getting shtako, I stopped for the weekend.

you did not get any "octopus ball = s h i t a k o" japanese word think you forogt to add the "i"

i lol so hard ever time i hear npc in game say "octopus ball = s h i t a k o" realy that what it sound like they say even on the tv show lol... look like they copy the japanese word took the "i" out of it...

so you did not any thing well may be cause you did not spend you money on the lvl4 lock box that where the rare gune at the npc do not drop it lol you have to spend real money to get them

Didn't get a single legendary

I didn't say it was impossible to get good loot from the other boxes. But it's been confirmed by Devs that Tier 4 has a higher chance for them. I get at least a purple every other T4 lockbox. And with the way the random stats work, sometimes the purples are better than oranges.

It could be. I only say that based on your 60-70 T4's though. You can't go by what others get out of their T2's and such, because that's just very lucky for them. It is more likely though that you're just very unlucky. I'm not sure how a bug such as this would even exist.

It most likely exists like the myriad of other bugs that only effect certain players. Go back to page 2 and read through my examples. Ive played plenty of other mmos tht have bugs that usually effect everyone... ie everyone experiences the same bug. While other mmos did occasionally have bugs that only effected certain players, there usually was a reason behind it... ie the bug could be reproduced 100% of the time if that player did x...y....and z.

In defiace i have found there are a long list of bugs that happen totally at random, that cannot be reproduced, and these bugs only effect certain members of the group..... you can have a group of 3 players doing the exact same mission, pursuit, and only 2 members of the group get credit.

as i stated previously i would totally chalk my aquiring 0 orange items up to simply a bad roll if the dice. however, i have 2 other friends i run with evry single day and night whoare rolling the same set of dice i am rolling. They both have 5 to 7 orange items each, and i have yet to aquire a single orange item. Factor that in with the facts that Defiance has a number of bugs that only effect one of us at any gven time, it is more likely than not that there is indeed a bug for some players where they cannot aquire orange items. To suggest this is not the case would be proposterous.

Now dont get me wrong here, if it is indeed a bad roll of the dice for some of us, I can accept that. I dont want to see everyone gettng orange items every other lock box. Defiacne already has a carrot on the stick problem by the content being too easy, and most everything being given away or aquired too easily. athat said, I think those of us who have yet to aqiure a single orange item would like Trion to at least investigate the possibility of a bug existing.

It was pretty good. I found a whole bunch of loot, and in turn made a whole bunch of arkfall salvage with it. I didn't find anything too fabulous, but I did see loot dropping more often, and more of it was blue than usual.

My only complaint was that I get lag kicked a lot during peak hours on weekends. It might be because I have people on the other side of the country in my friends list who play at the same time I do, and the server can't figure out how to properly spread the load. But promo weekend only stuff can tend to get annoying, when you get kicked repeatedly trying to get the 'bonus'.

Heh, I liked how the 'bonus loot weekend' graphic when you logged in and checked your patches only showed one blue and two green items. At least it wasn't false advertising. Although, I did notice more purple items at stores today too, and I got a couple really great purple items from lockboxes today too, although nothin' too crazy. =0)

I have been personally tracking my T3 boxes for a while now, and yes I know there is a spreadsheet thing going on and I do contribute. The ONLY place I have seen an orange is from a T3. The rate is rough(like 1 per 50 pr so). I see more purple items here than T4 and less green.

I still say grind away at T3s and pry they fix the drop issue or up the keycode limit(75 really?)

But on topic I saw squat for the "event"

I did a few missions on co-op motherload and with the extra 10% loot on top of my other bonuses from self clan group I was getting a minimum of 100 weapons per run on motherload. So yeah I loved it. Lots of breaking down for me lol.

Now if they just fix the inventory ui so it didnt take longer to break down items thn it does to aquire them in combat. Is a new loot inbox with the ability to keep what you want and "salvage all" of the other stuff left over really to much to ask for?

Maybe im the only one but i actually pulled some pretty nice stuff this weekend. Was grabbing all loot and averaging about 35 keycodes per hour between arkfalls coop runs and salvagr and managed to pull 8 t4 lockboxes this weekend. And pulled 3 legendaries an ar with syphon a derailer and a boomer. Now before this weekend i had bought probably 40 t4 lockboxes and had nothing legendary to show for it. So i was quite upset about my luck but you have to keep in mind that the boxes are random and a 6% orange rate hecomes 16% for the weekenr at least from what i understood from the dev message. So for all of u with bad luck just push thru.. and keep in minr that the lockbox percentage seems to br a world specific thung rather than player so simple probability would say sooner or later ur luck will turn
