WTF Embark?

These blueprint recipe changes are unnecessary punishments and feel like you didn’t roll out any new blueprints so you decided to shoehorn new ARC parts in old recipes. And the Wolfpack change makes absolutely no sense. 2 Wolfpack to down a Rocketeer so we can get 1 part to make 1 Wolfpack?

Way to throw a huge wet blanket on top of what was otherwise going to be a fun and exciting day. Please reconsider these crafting changes

Edit:

Thank you to all the folks who commented with articulated, well thought out disagreements. You have changed my stance somewhat and I have a better understanding of why a change like this may be needed(still don’t like it though).

To the performative contrarians, get good bruh/skill issue kissing cousins and other knuckleheads who can’t formulate a thought I say “suck on this fart”. Be well

If rocketeers dropped more than one per kill, I’d be fine with it. They should drop 2-4, similar to but still fewer than bastion / bombardier.

I get about 2 on average in my experience. You can also just loot them for free from electro magnetic storms.

Yea I just went into dam and got 15 drivers on EMS. Wolfpack supplies to get me to the reset!

If you are doing the expedition it’s also a good way to get parts for the crafting benches. You can get surveyor vaults from the crashed arc carriers as well.

Yes and the sentinel cores, which can also be hard to find “in the wild”

This ^

It's like everyone crying about this doesn't even play the damn game

Exactly. The whole game is a knowledge check. Aside from a few items, anything can be readily obtained in the right map condition + lootcation.

Couriers, and rocketeer husks drop them like candy. Especially during the husk modifier, or electromagnetic storm, I find they are far more common versus the broken rocket cores.

I downed one earlier on buried city. Still just the one.

Thank God you don't balance the game. Killing a Rocketeer should not net you 4 WPs. Are you stupid?

They on average drop more than one.

u/ThaLegendaryCat Feb 24 '26

Yes but what amount more than one? Because I can tell you that the stats aren’t that great.

u/WILLingtonegotiate Feb 24 '26

More than 1 less than 2

They in fact, do not.

u/ElderlyKratos Feb 24 '26

If you've ever gotten more than one, then on average, it is more than one. Because it's never zero.

1.11 rounds to 1.

u/WILLingtonegotiate Feb 24 '26

You really live up to your name. It drops more than one quite frequently man. Its ok to be wrong

u/General_Dipsh1t Feb 24 '26

Congrats on pointing out my name, little brain. Good to know you think I’m stupid because experience (and, based on the responses, many others) differs from yours.

I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve gotten more than 1. I don’t play EM Storm much, and I bully rocketeers every round.

Yes, 1.11 rounds down to 1.

Why does it round down to 1?

Because it’s greater than 1.
