Ok so have spent the last 4 days farming out rivals this is my results.
My character is level 31 and 27
I also play solo and have been playing since launch
Have a Total of 100 level 4 rivals killed
14 x Military tanks
18 x fNIX Tanks
20 x Hunters
28 x apoc Tanks
10 x Prototype Tanks
10 x Harvester a mix of all types.
The Total amount of experimental Weapons of the 100 rivals is zero.
in 100 rivals farmed I got no experimental Weapons at all
if this is the path the dev team wish to take with drop rates well I won’t be around to play the game.
I must say i got a ton load of experimental clothing
I’ve moved this to Bug Reports. In the future, please post in the correct forum if you plan on reporting bugs, and use this template to give us more information to go on.
Rivals level up, they’re the most sure to drop Experimental weapons at Level 4, but the loot table also consists of clothing and such. It’s not a guaranteed drop, though if you’ve killed that many of them it does sound a bit unusual that you haven’t found an Experimental yet
@haxxlinus and @Ricco , the same happened to me, i´m level 31 and since the new March update i also have that problem and i usually prefer to play Solo, the solution i´ve found was to play multiplayer games in other people sessions, the drop rates are better, i do not know why, but they are, that`s how i found the remaining missing level 5 weapons, good luck to you!.
The more people that report this in, the better. If something’s up with the droprates we’ll know for sure. I’m about to do a multiplayer session myself, gonna hunt some Rivals so I’ll report back if I encounter the same.
Yup. Same here. Something has gone seriously wrong with the droprate for experimental weapons after the anniversary event ended. Both in SP and MP and its the same for the guys I play with.
At least this part i have noticed, loot is extreme minimal for lvl 4 hunters, any class. Its always ammo, nothing else. No clothing, no weapons, just 1 stack of ammo.
Experimental weapons drop rate for me is rather fair. There are times that I get a big nothing, but two days ago I got AG4 and rocket launcher, and Kpist a day before.
I play on Guerrilla difficulty, with difficulty adjusting per number of players, and neither I nor my game partner have seen either a 5 star weapon or an experimental weapon drop from the level 4 rivals when we’re playing. I’ve seen exactly one 5-star drop - a magazine for submachine guns - since the new difficulty settings were introduced. We’ve killed dozens and dozens of these 4 star rivals - from runners all the way up to tanks. It’s so incredibly frustrating having drop rates this low that I plainly remember it.
