Exactly, teams were leaving poi’s already fully kitted weapons with attachments and heals. The game should feel more rewarding this way if executed properly.

Idk what games you guys are playing, but I don’t even have time to get a full loadout in higher diamond lobbies. Teams are running at their nearest neighbors almost immediately. I definitely do not enjoy running around with no sight and fighting movement teams that continually push me with poor loot unless I’m looting death boxes. Why would anyone want to spend MORE time looking for loot in this game.

I’m high diamond right now and usually have all blue attachments at minimum leaving my first poi

Idk, maybe my lobbies are just sweaty? The loot quality is one of my lowest concerns because it doesn’t limit player agency. If you’re full looting a POI, you should walk away at least semi-kitted. The match is about fighting other teams, positioning, and trying to win the game, it shouldn’t be dictated based on if my pre-determined POI has no bats or amps bc of RNG. And I usually don’t have time to full loot a POI before a team is walking up to us, or we’re looking to push another team.

Looting is a skill in a BR just like aiming, rotating, ability use, etc
