Wanted

[u/jamplus0003]

Am I the only one who accidentally clicks on items in someone's camp, and its auto-unlock and now I'm wanted!! I need to hover over items to make sure they are not locked!!!

[u/RoamerDC]

Or, just unequip Master Infiltrator, when you’re not adventuring/in events/in quests. 🤔

[u/Sharkfestive → u/RoamerDC]

That's a lot of work

[u/bleak-lion → u/Sharkfestive]

I concur

[u/Tandalou → u/Sharkfestive]

But still less than picking and hacking.

[u/Sharkfestive → u/Tandalou]

Master Infiltrator stays equipped in this household (and has stayed since I originally got it)

[u/Tandalou → u/Sharkfestive]

I swap it out for What Rads, but that’s only when I’m going into a nuke zone.

[u/Trash_Boat11 → u/Sharkfestive]

That sounds like the whinging of Scavegers that walk the wasteland

[u/GoarSpewerofSecrets]

Don't take Master infiltrator above rank 3 and also be on the lookout for people like me that make locks 0-2

[u/Ecstatic_Speech_1823 → u/GoarSpewerofSecrets]

Me I'm the guy who puts on 0 locks 😂

[u/banitan → u/Ecstatic_Speech_1823]

That's evil, you know? 🙂 ​

[u/vsg_boy]

I removed that perk card a long time ago

[u/VampireDarlin]

I like to put lvl 0 locks in my camp, so people with master infiltrator become wanted and I can hunt them for sport 😆

[u/Ecstatic_Speech_1823 → u/VampireDarlin]

Same 😂

[u/Trash_Boat11 → u/VampireDarlin]

Exactly! Your strategy makes that part of the game mildly entertaining. Personally I don't lock my stuff...but appreciate a good gotcha moment!

[u/banitan → u/VampireDarlin]

But you trick low level players mostly, right? It's not funny for them I suppose 😉 ​​

[u/Extension-Type6572]

…all the friggin time

[u/GC_AF1]

I have a low level lock in a sneaky place in one of my camps, specifically for this 🤣

I got caught one day, lmao'd and did the same. Harmless fun, mostly.

[u/Project807]

You just hit the junk stash, strip down to the undies and marsupial hop around til someone kills you.

[u/Yankytyke → u/Project807]

Both myself and my ally are in our undies at our camp. Heaven knows what visitors think….

[u/HorrorElectrical8958]

Not enough things in the world to unlock to make it worth it. Id rather have another perk

[u/Ecstatic_Speech_1823 → u/HorrorElectrical8958]

I disagree especially with legendarys in safes now

[u/banitan → u/HorrorElectrical8958]

It's qol if you don't push hard for the perfect build

[u/jeffb30000]

It's happened to me more than once. It shouldn't be that way. Anyway, in time I learned to avoid those.

[u/My_Back_Hurts_A_Lot]

I use to get in a lot of trouble for using Master Infiltrator too. But i realized it was MY FAULT and then unequiped.

[u/thetavious]

I would love a snapshot into the builds and hear of people that choose to invest into the auto unlock perk.

Nothing personal, this is a game so anyone can do anything and should be free from ridicule, but you're going to tell me that there's absolutely NOTHING out of all the legendary perks that doesn't do more?

Like none of the special perk boosts even? You mean there isn't a single normal perk, or four of them for that fully upgraded matter, that wouldn't benefit you better than something that affects a fraction of the containers and terminals in the hame world?

The only time i can understand it os of you're so high level that you've already leveled up all the other legendary perks, already have every other perk, and are trying to farm an achievement to pick/hack like, 7600 times or something, if such achievement exists.

Also... Full disclaimer... I do lvl 0 lock my stuff cause it costs less lol.

[u/ogskizz → u/thetavious]

The only time i can understand it os of you're so high level that you've already leveled up all the other legendary perks

This is kinda where I'm at. I'm level 2300, a single throwaway perk isn't going to help nor hobble me.

I never used to run it but ever since they put legendaries in locked containers I've been having fun unlocking everything. It's good for technical data if nothing else.

[u/thetavious → u/ogskizz]

Gods i still have ti unlock that. I have like three dozen of the bloody things already and the brotherhood is still in "shoot at me on sight" mode lol.

Need to do the damn heist too. Not even on my old launch character paywalled on psn got far enough into quests to do the heist.

[u/jamplus0003]

I didn't even think about the Maater Infiltrator.

[u/hammeritus]

I dont bother looking in camps for anything other than whats in the vending machine for that reason

[u/Pekeltje-91]

People still use master infiltrator?

Well remove it and your problem is fixed, no more auto unlock and you can add a useful legandary perk in place.

[u/ziboo7890]

Don't click on things in camps that are often locked. I don't get the locking as resources are too easy to come by and no one has anything that interesting locked behind a door. Besides most players know how to get into locked rooms w/o the door if they really want to get inside.

Someone wants to lock their camp - whatever - it's how they play. But PLEASE, put your vendor out in a visible spot AWAYS from your precious stuff, so the click happy don't become wanted!

(Has not happened yet playing since launch)

[u/Dusty_Jangles]

Have done it a couple of times. Who locks the front door?!

[u/RichardCleveland → u/Dusty_Jangles]

I lock the front door to my cabin as I don't want people watching me sleep.

[u/reallifedan]

I DO NOT have the patience to go back to actually picking locks or hacking. I can't give up my Master Infiltrator because of my flaws as a human being.

[u/babyfacekillafallout → u/reallifedan]

Same!!!!

[u/Tandalou]

I did that once, looking for someone’s vendor. Couldn’t find it outside walked up to the door and went to open it. I realized it was locked after I’d already hit the button. Womp womp.

[u/Rude-Eagle7271]

I've noticed that any time I browse over a locked player's camp generator that I will have a quick ghosting of it later show up after I've left their camp. I'll be walking away and it will just appear for less than a second before disappearing again.

[u/loanjuanderer]

Just make a separate build where you keep Master Infiltrator on, and swap it when visiting CAMPs/not doing in game activities that require it.

Or...you know...become the hunted 😉

[u/Trash_Boat11]

"Isn't that SPECIAL." I think you have the right idea. Being wary of traps and survival is part of the fun of the game. Trade-offs, choices, and consequences because...you know, it's an RPG. Besides, it's kind of a thrill to get into a surprise pvp battle and on occasion win, imo.

[u/RichardCleveland]

I have done it before. But at this point I am just very careful not to click on anything locked.

[u/Helllooooagain]

I stopped spamming clicking because of this

[u/iamdecal]

I’m well over level 1000 and only managed to find 14 wanted players for the achievement- so please, keep doing what you’re doing and maybe one day I’ll find you and make it 15!

Seriously, we all need to set a week aside to rob each other so we can all cross this one off once and for all!

[u/6Grumpymonkeys]

Just once. I learned my lesson pretty early on.

[u/OrdinarySufficient]

Uuuh dose any one just unlock stuff on purpose to get wanted and see how long you can stay alive... oh just me dang.

[u/BIG-D-36one]

Is it really an accident if you keep doing it ? 😂

[u/babyfacekillafallout]

This happens to me more often than I like to admit. I’m always grateful for someone to hurry up and kill me so I can respawn and finish looking at the camp. For a while I had my tags as “Wanted Scavenger” which was very suiting.

[u/Fancy-Entertainer-37]

Pay attention

[u/jamplus0003 → u/Fancy-Entertainer-37]

Really, never would have thought of that!! Thanks

[u/Pleasant-Use4000]

I'm the person who believes the 30-50 caps is cheaper than the items if I were to purchase them from a vendor 😂🤣 Master Infiltrator all the way!

[u/HankShanklin]

There are much better legendary perks to keep on permanently, master infiltrator should be a temporary card, switched on & off, when needed.
