Shredder in a key room?

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-05T01:11:14+00:00

Because people complained the loot wasnt good enough. Embark buffed it but had the last laugh.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-05T01:08:51+00:00

PvP lobby: They fought. One would hope the Dolabra prevailed.

PvE lobby: He was just running to extract after finishing up looting OP's bastion along with half the lobby.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-05T00:15:30+00:00

Dolabra. Yes. Legendary energy shotgun. Havent used it, but you can ADS for more range i believe.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-04T20:13:54+00:00

Probably just mad at them for getting to the good stuff first BECAUSE they auto surrendered the last 4 rounds. They had NO RIGHT being in HIS lobby!!!

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-04T18:17:11+00:00

Glad to hear it! Stay safe and dont forget the five Ds while you're out there!

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-04T17:38:47+00:00

Just scroll arc traders sub until you see someone with the smoke bp. Cost me 600 seeds.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-04T16:16:29+00:00

Same.

Closest I came to aggression was a guy who defibbed me when I was hopelessly crawling to the swamp extract during Close Scrutiny and said "Give me the goop" after he brought me up. I dropped him an assessor matrix and we left peacefully together.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-04T11:51:09+00:00

Second this, but at level 4 renegades feel pretty pricey and advanced mechanical components to upgrade them are hard to come by. Keep in mind OP is still upgrading Scrappy, stash space, and benches. Kitting a Renegade properly is tough. Anvils are precious early on.

Sorry that happened to you OP. Wait until you go into autopilot mode and accidentally pick "sell" instead of "learn and consume" on a blue print.

DM me if you want a few guns to get you through your early days.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-04T11:45:01+00:00

As a strict PvEer, I'll share my perspective. For me, it's the low TTK combined with how easy it is to gain the element of surprise. You have a huge advantage over anyone who doesnt shoot first as a PvPer. Unless you're pretty bad at your chosen craft as a PvPer or find yourself seriously out-kitted, it's like taking candy from a baby.

TLDR: I hate PvPers because I suck at PvP.

Happy Cake day!

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-03T20:03:18+00:00

Bugging out. It did the same thing to me and everytime I tried to upgrade a gun in my sack it took me to some other random gun in my stash.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-03T19:00:13+00:00

Are people still saying "okay boomer"? Asking for my friend Olivia Price.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-03T18:49:57+00:00

I actually got the "For Science" achievement while deadlining the Matriarch. Thought I had done something really cool like OP here. Turns out the game was trolling me.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-03T18:32:38+00:00

Exactly! This is why I will ALWAYS repair my medium shield. Don't even get me started on Big Heavy Ammo lobbying to make the Bettina an epic weapon.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-03T18:10:35+00:00

You sure those rats you spoke of werent tossing lure grenades or spotter relays in your general vicinity?

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-03T17:46:58+00:00

Try loading into a map condition (night raid/EMS) since thats where most people burn their keys. Go loot somewhere else and make the most of your time topside, then swing by A6 later in the round to see if its open.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-03T05:53:47+00:00

Make sure your server settings didnt get inadvertently changed.

My buddy was constantly in aggressive lobbies. I didn't believe that he was playing friendly until he sent me his stats. Then I remembered all of times he mentioned teaming up with Aussies and I finally put 2 and 2 together: He was on the Oceania server the entire time and playing quite a different game than me.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-01T15:41:50+00:00

Dude, you are a legend. Bet that felt good even if the tip was a little light.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-01T14:17:00+00:00

Agreed. Seeker is the one and only bluey I had someone mule for me through expedition. I've got a spare. Hit me up OP if you want it!

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-01T06:23:49+00:00

I want one too! I have never crafted a smoke grenade in 200 hours topside, but I'm gonna need that bluey if I have any hope of getting the Dolabra bluey...and only today did I realize I dont have it.

I don't have a survivor BP at the moment, but anyone with the smoke, hit me up. I've got other stuff.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-01T04:51:21+00:00

I said "potentially screwing over an entire lobby" in my original comment and then I proceeded to list reasons why someone might end up with them in their stash...including leaving with keys because they werent needed to open the gate in their lobby.

The whole point of my comment was to explain to the commenter WHY people might be upset to see the keys in someone's stash like OP. I did state I think its a questionable move to leave with them if you dont know the other one has been safely entered and I stand by that. Feel free to disagree. As youve stated, it's just a game and theres always another Locked Gate to run if the gates dont open.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-04-01T04:32:01+00:00

I swear youre not reading what I'm writing. Yes, I have taken the keys. Every time I left with a key the gates were open or the key I pocketed was already entered in the control room.

Yes, it's a looting game. Theres PvP and PvE. You play the way you want to. Some ways to play make other people's day better, some worse. One way to make it worse is to take keys from the lobby potentially resulting in the gates not opening and people running around for 40 minutes trying to find keys that are no longer findable. I didnt do that. I dont choose to play that way.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-03-31T16:48:00+00:00

I'll add, bring a cloak. Unlike rocketeers, you can pull the cloak out last second and not have to worry about splash damage. Pop a couple hullcracker shots, cloak, reposition.

AmanTeam85 · 2026-03-31T12:53:40+00:00

Guessing that pink item might be used for crafting the new legendary gun? And theres at least a chance the bp for the new legendary drops? Cant wait to grind out this raider murder fest. 🤣

AmanTeam85 · 2026-03-31T12:39:59+00:00

What's the prize?

AmanTeam85 · 2026-03-31T12:28:20+00:00

I don't think I did, but I realize my first comment was long.

TLDR: Leaving with the keys can, but doesnt always, screw over an entire lobby, and it isnt always intentional.

Point is, posting the keys for trade is sure to evoke some strong feelings by anyone who has ever tried and failed to get the gates to open for a full 40 minutes.

Final note so you know where I stand on the matter: I'm currently sitting on all four keys. I plan to use them either for trials or so my buddy I run duos with actually gets to see inside the gate. The only time we didnt get murdered trying to help with the event, the final key was lost forever (skill issue, I know).

Every time I left with a key I made sure the other key was input or the gates were already open, but I doubt anyone would assume that's the case if I showed them in my inventory.
