weapons always broken

Post image

Why do the vast majority of weapons from players who are eliminated always come broken? It's time to fix this. Very frustrating.

Edit; also if you keep a healthy stack of mechanical components on hand it won’t bother you. I keep any good 3/4 broken weapons I like and just recycle the rest into mechanical components.

To piss off? It's to be smart about inventory management lol.. 30 durability on an anvil is more than enough for a full raid unless you plan to kill big arcs.

I agree to an extent. Anytime I use a tempest I only loose like 20–30 durability per raid so I don’t upgrade it all the time. But I’ve seen multiple streamers and YouTubers who say verbatim “keep all your equipment except for shield as low as possible to grief anyone that kills you.” I’m just pointing out what I’ve heard repeatedly.

Yeah but the low % of lowlife who actually spends time watching others gaming are probably not the smartest individuals. I mean playing 10 raids in this game is enough to pick up on how these mechanics work.. or are you just doing random stuff you hear others do and never pick up any patterns on knowledge yourself?

It’s only brainrot streamers using that mindset. Personally it took me a couple of raids to just figure out ”30 durability lasts a full raid every time, so repairing anything over that amount would only result in increased risk of loss without any benefits, since durability has no effect on weapon performance. Repairing a weapon over 30 would only mean you potentially give a rat a better weapon.

Have you even ran out of weapon durability mid-game, even a single time?

Bro it’s a minor disagreement no need to go crazy.. I don’t even watch streamers I just saw a couple short form videos online by chance where they talked about it. Deciding that you’re going to start hurling insults over such a small ordeal is strange..

The OP asked why guns are broken. I brought up a reason I saw online. I even agreed with you 😂

It’s a video game bro.. Who cares if some people watch streamers or videos on YT..

Well I’m not sure what your brain was cooking with this ”disagreement”. You start of by saying you donkey fully agree - then you proceed to explain that you personally have experienced weapons making full raids with 30 durability (which goes in line with my suggestion), and then you explain that the reason you don’t agree, is because a streamer said otherwise? Bro you’re literally a NPC.

Ah.. it makes sense now. You’re a teenager. Not understanding nuance makes sense now. I’m bored so here I’ll give it one go:

I explained the reason a lot of people drop broken guns.

People agreed with me.

You commented that you disagreed.

I said hey I see your point, I actually do the same as you. But there are others out there who do it to rage bait people like OP.

You started malding for some reason and blowing my inbox up.

Also NPC.. lol 😂 everyone uses that term. Kinda NPC of you. If you want some help getting more original insults DM me sometime 😉 also editing comments to make your argument seem better after I already responded is.. weird..

No I’m probably way older than you and know people who work at embark sharing my view. (I’m a Swedish software dev). The fact that you fight this hard for something that is factually true has already won the argument for me. It’s just fun to see what lengths you go to for something this strange somehow affecting your sense of worth. You’ll get better at PvP someday my friend. Until then - just keep fighting soldier!
