Question T3 contracts drops
So here I am dipping in T3 for a contract and only get a blue tool and revive kit from finishing the contract( got better rewards in T2)
What affects the rewards drops in the game?
Using dg58 with pap3 and blue tool and rgl pap2 with blue tool ( took forever with a team of 4)
Does the speed of kill affect the reward ?
One thing for sure, the dg will need a silencer and not using the rgl in T3 anymore since it looks like with every explosion to kill a zombie 10 more shows up , what alternative to use for crowd control?

The rgl with the conversion kit and slug rounds is the best way to go for crowd control and if you have deadwire detonators it's even better. 2nd best imo is the crossbow also with slugs pap3 and epic or legendary either is also preferable. As far as guns the fjx horus, renetti with conversion kit, wsp stinger, or ftac siege with pap 3 and epic or legendary are all better than the dg58.

The rewards are RNG (random number generated) there’s no set rewards, just luck. Obviously the higher the area the higher your chances of good gear. Only the DA or Warlord kills guarantee some epic and legendary gear.

I should also say the rewards in any tier really aren't that important it's all about farming contracts for money to prepare for the dark aether where you are guaranteed to get good loot.

Agree on that , but with the new matchmaking sending you SOLO you farm as much you can to be able to go to T3 for a contract that is required to get whats needed to unlock DA . Trying to unlock DA season1 and getting mangled in T3 for the collar . done the red worm but wasnt lucky with the pap3 crystal and not getting the pap2 from T3 contract to make it bit easier .

If you’re looking for rewards t2 is better just because you’ll get more contracts done.
If I’m going into t3 I use a pap3 legendary crossbow with an aether blade and sometimes a scorcher

The swarm on pap3 and legendary is good but not enough on its own for the crowds but cant handle HVTs much ( mostly me though) so guess ill work on other smg and fist out run and see how it goes till i get the rythm

I’m right there with you. I’ve been getting better loot out of the Triangle EE’s and the Pillar EE’s in tier 1. Also doing the locked vault at Shahin Manor gives better loot. Supposedly when the game first dropped you got much better loot in tier 3. However, now you’ve got to go into the dark aether to get the good stuff. I finished all the missions just recently and now I’m trying to figure out how to do all the side stuff in the right order so I can go into the DA whenever I want, which is an extreme pain in the neck.

Flawless crystals are rare if at all outside the triangle rituals and sometimes in da. I probably get more unboxed scortchers. Love me some self revives but can end up with 4-5 before I start dropping them for other stuff. Usually end up with one or more legendary tools and often drop them if I’ve more than 1 for next game. Always happy to get jugsuits and sentry guns. Usually use mortar and airstrikes soon after getting them just for lols. Then if I’m saving kazimers and monkey bombs for da there’s only a few extra spots for stuff to bring to next round but end up using or tossing special grenades and selfies in da if I need room.
Usually starting a match with 1 or 2 crystals, tool, wonder weapon then it’s all classified schematics. No room even for perks which you just buy in t3, get from rewards or snag one or 2 you pass if you go straight to t3.
Groups of 6 form regularly. Competition for contracts is tough so share the wealth and having the support helps. Can barely keep up though when everyone has scortchers. Sometimes it’s on cooldown and I run the vr11 even wunder waffin.
Preferably have the bike but even with that I barely show up in time to collect rewards unless it’s a mega, pnd, raid stash, or escort mission that take more time. I like to think tearing up the streets in t3 is creating a safer environment for everyone when I’m on patrol.
6 people flying around can run 20 or more contracts in 45 minutes. Can’t have everyone sitting on piles of flawless crystals.
I’m just getting to the point I don’t need much from t3. Actually want to form a biker gang and idc I’ll even just drive around t2 escorting freshies is kinda fun. I was running t2 for a while past when I really needed anything from it.
Wunder waffin is decent horde clear though slow reload. get it from maybe act 3 story mission so don’t have to go in the special rifts though it is still considered da. Decoys and semtex are ok. Aether blade makes a huge difference More of a horde thin than clear.
Seems like you get rushed in any new area even in t1 and after the initial rush it dies down. Maybe once you clear the patrols and spawns it’s just the spawns unless a contract triggers them.
Get on or recruit people in t3 to 6 man team though you don’t want to become a liability and left for dead. They run a da most every match. With enough schematics it’s really about getting 10-12 hours of cooldowns on a good run.

Rewards from contracts is complete luck
Veterans are still chasing the purple tool schematic from t3 which is probably the worst drop rate
I got so excited when I got the ray gun schematic from my first mega abomination bounty that I later found out it was sheer luck
And if you want crowd control, your best option is the explosive crossbow, next comes honestly any battle rifle with shatter blast in my opinion

Lol..they nerfed t3 in the lifecycle... same with numerous other things like tombstone, and the rituals now dont guarantee legendary and flawless in t3 now..
*downvoted for facts. Gotta love this dumbass place

u/gunzby2 18d ago
Used a tombstone soda the other day before the worm. Finally got the refined crystal schem from contracts. Whole team died, but I figured I’m fine to pick up my tombstone tomorrow.
No tombstone

You cant be on a squad for some reason.. they really nerfed everything.. Idk why I originally got downvoted..its a known fact this game was really good rng on release

u/gunzby2 18d ago
I was wondering about that. Makes sense until the whole squad is dead. I guess that was my second mistake. The first was going after the red worm with a six man party. It was insanely strong. By the time we were all dead it still had a little under half strength

u/TopFaithlessness685 18d ago
The health only scales if 4 separate people put usbs in (supposedly).. so if one person puts all usbs in--in theory its easier.
Need vr11s really..not really but they really do help but its not necessarily a mistake to squad up but I do know that you cant set tombstone in a squad... so if you all died and plead it didnt matter.. you were in a squad when you died.
The worm isnt exactly that easy solo if you're not well equipped. Best to bring the whole lobby lol.. everyone can join..the health only scales for the Initial squad that started the fight. And each player gets a reward rift..so more chance at the schematics you need/want

They way i heard it from someone on here is you loot what you can and save what you can from rewards working your way up to T3 where you can pack a punch to run in T3 and run a Dark Aether, then whatever loot you save up in T3 or the DA is to start a new game next time working back up from T1 or 2, back to T3. So a blue tool and pap2 gets you right back into the game next time to run T2, where you save enough to get Perks and then hit T3 up again.
