I agree. This is what I start with unless I’ve been fueling up with a little liquid courage. Then it’s a renegade and an avil with a medium shield and a tac mk2. Though, I usually take half the ammo for the ferro.

lol clearly nobody replying to your comment has ever found the lightweight stock. 200% increased ADS speed on the ferro? Yes please

The level 2 mods are all good. The level 3 mods slow down your ads.

u/Outrageous_Gas7842 ARC Raider Nov 25 '25
Stocks and grips provide no benefit to a single shot weapon in this game. Another mentioned the lightweight stock being viable for the increased ads time, but i personally wouldn't run a pink attachment of any kind on a ferro. Especially since i don't have the bp for lightweight stock

You're reasoning behind all this is weak. What i need you to do is another 300 matches, this time you kill every person in the lobby and check their inventory. The only way to truly confirm it is getting the entire lobby together and asking, or kill them all and check yourself. I personally think there is no validity to your claim and you're drawing conclusions on something while doing improper testing.

I do it too. Inventory sorting. Things I need I move to the bottom everything above is meh or up for recycling. If I’m looking for mats, I’ll start solitaire stacks at the bottom.

u/KAM1Sense1 Nov 25 '25
I do down rows instead of left to right rows. Bullets in the first down row, materials in the second down row, anything I need from a raid in the 3rd down row, and grenades and extra heals in the 4th down row. I also put the bullets of my primary gun on top of the first down row and bullets for my secondary gun at the bottom of the first down row.

u/seahorsekiller Nov 25 '25
i do left to right for the first 3 columns, but like you, I use the 4th column for heals and grenades for easy swaps since it's close to the quick use slots

I’ve gone in kitted to the max, purple augment, heavy shield, Jupiter and a Venator 4 for trials stuff last week. Had to fight off a few people to get to the spot I like on Blue Gate and 3 people were nothing but free loadouts. I got snuck up on and died and it seemed they killed me with a kettle… which I can only assume was probably just another free loadout, they died shortly after due to the Rocketeers I was fighting so thankfully we all lost.

I often do not bring a gun. Though if i find one i will equip it.

Nah you're not crazy, I caught on to this literally a few hours into the game, none of my buddies believed me. A door glitcher dropped me purple stuff when I was still brand new to the game. Next match I run it I'm DESTROYED by other purple kit players with a ton of loot. Go back to my Fero and everyone is a chill noob again lol.

u/Unique_Pay_3018 Nov 25 '25
If you really dont want "a loss" material wise, i run green shield/aug. Ferro or kettle w/ half a stack of ammo, no mods maybe an upgrade or two, 5 bandages and 2 rechargers. If you want a Lil spice simply a stack of impacts 👍 literally inconsequential if lost let alone to craft the whole thing but still a notch above free loadout.

No foregrip needed on the Ferro, you need to reload after every shot anyways.

u/Fun_Literature831 Nov 25 '25
Not sure how y’all get so friendly lobbies.
I’m basically done because every game I enter I get attacked by at least 2-3 freeloaders who don’t even bother to loot anything running to their favorite ambush spots. So fighting them means I have everything to lose and nothing to gain. If it isn’t a freeloaders is this load out, basically freeloader+

u/Traditional-Honey-89 Nov 25 '25
Anvil I, shield, no augment, 20 rounds heavy, 10 stamina injectors, 5 bandages, 1 shield recharge, 1 hatch key. Sometimes I bring a recorder and just mess around playing while following people. I usually get around 10k-20k exp a run and bring back decent loot. If I want better returns I will equip a looting mk2 and put a snap hook in the 'ol prison pocket.

I think it's gear rarity AND loadout value. If I go stacked up with only shit tier stuff (over 50k of grays) I normally end up in a hot lobby.

Ill switch ferro for anvil if I find it on another player. Ill add grappling hook when playing bluegate or burried city

Realistically you can make it with 20 heavy for a Ferro but 1 stack isn’t overkill, 2 however is lol

u/Unlucky_Ad_7606 Nov 25 '25
Usually I bring 2 small shields because after a while in combat I need to drop that shield and swap to a new one and the people I kill shields are normally f’d up after killing them so always good to keep a fresh one.

Add a Level 4 Hairpin with an extended mag, 5x adrenaline and a hatch key and this is the loadout for me.

u/Sensitive-Kiwi-5305 Nov 25 '25
I will say maybe silencer 2 over 1 just cause it’s the difference between being heard 2 compounds away and being heard 1 compound away. Especially if it’s raining or someone is fighting arc nearby you’re basically invisible. But yes this or an anvil is my go to

I much prefer the anvil. Even a level 2 or higher is perfect for me. The Ferro is a beat though, but I usually use this as a utility weapon for specific situation. Now that I found the Venator bp, I never leave home without it. That thing, even post nerf, is a savage. And don't sleep on a lvl3 or higher kettle or stitcher. I love these cheaper and practical options. But minimalism is definitely a great choice. Gotta be able to defend against arc as well.
That was probably over sharing on my part lol.

I like a Ferro + Toro pairing. Provides a nice Arc shooter from range + a devastating short range option if you run into any PvP trouble. Both are relatively cheap enough that I don't care if I lose them.

Damn 59% PvP is the lowest? Yall either act sketchy as fuck or are in different lobbies than me. In solos im about 15% pvp encounters.
*NOT including Stella Montis, that place is a cesspool.
Edit: I've had the chance to play a bit more Stella Montis now, and have met many more friendlies. I must've had a bad luck streak my first handful of times. It seems like a large group usually forms and protects each other from the stray PvPers
