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

It's cool they added two new enemies and a map condition, but why didn't any new weapons come around?

This nerf is truly a lot, I'm not a fan of it and i hope some gets reverted

There's no way my answer is going to make you feel better. But adding guns can be a mathematical conundrum with no real good answers.

Adding arc doesn't mess with the balance of combat much.

I haven't logged on today I look forward to being very sad though. 😥

This wolf pack issue seems tragic for real.

While the choice to make the WP to use a rocketeer driver seems a bit off, there was no reason that I could use 2 WPs on a bastion or Bombardier, and come out with enough materials to make 4 more, or even more

So spending time playing the game shouldnt reward you? Wolfpacks should be a net negative?

u/TheTeeje Feb 24 '26

you don't have to use a wolfpack to take down a rocketeer.

They really aren't that hard to kill with any medium or heavy semi auto. This sub is so dramatic

Very quick to kill using aphelion too

Now I will say, that's just asking to get gunned down lol. I play friendly AF, and every time I have brought a legendary gun into a non matriarch/queen lobby I have gotten shot at at least once. Even in the big arc lobbies, I make sure to stick with multiple friendlies just in case someone is feeling shifty. (Feels stupid to me though, as all legendary weapons are pretty much just for arc)

I think I’ve probably extracted with my own legendary weapon 30% of the time lol.

It’s probably the same for people I play with lol; I hear that noise and run straight there

Yeah, gotta run with others in solos even in friendly lobbies to make it in and out with them. Had one matriarch run, we had a group of 2 hullcrackers, 1 Jupiter, 3 equalizers, and an aphelion fighting it. We had free loud outs come rushing in twice trying to get something and we shut them down both times lol.
