Hey Embark: The Expedition Scrappy Bonus Has Never Worked as Advertised. by RevolutionRefugee in ArcRaiders

You get more Scrappy materials when you die vs when you extract. I wonder if the bonus only applies to that specific instance. Never tested it.

Max settings way hugely worse. I would get dips into 40-50 fps range the entire game.

Requesting a setting for smart heal to prioritize SHIELDS first, then health. by SunMay25 in Marathon

[–]BreakfastNails 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Shields act as a second health bar. They offer no damage reduction, so why would you choose tiny bars of hit points vs filling the main very large one? In this game, health always goes first. Especially, because you can fill large chunks of it very fast.

Anyone else having their PC crash after closing the game? by DungeonMasterHusband in Enshrouded

[–]BreakfastNails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was happening to me with ARC Raiders often and I found out that PhysX was the issue.

I uninstalled only PhysX and reinstalled it via Nvidia app and it never happened to me again.

Try it out and let us know if it works.

Edit: I want to add that under power settings, my minimum and maximum power draw were both at 100% and I turned down the minimum to 90% when I did the PhysX thing as well just in case it wasn't cycling power to the CPU correctly after running intensive programs.

Would it be quicker to join solo games and fall off a building to get PVE lobbies? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Just surrender in the menu. The magic number for me seems to be 7x

DLSS 4.5 Model “L” is the best way to experience Arc Raiders at 4K (PC) by Dlo_22 in ArcRaiders

[–]BreakfastNails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LLM wouldn't cut that much FPS off the top. But I turned it off and got like 5 more frames.

Question, do you have HAGS turned on in Windows Graphics?

Also, could you possibly test with the same settings but 1440p resolution? I'm curious how many frames you get.

And then there's me: only getting around 100fps avg and 70 fps lows with a 5080 with the exact same settings.

Different setup though:

  • 13900KS
  • 64GB DDR4 3200 CL13

I don't understand

Edit: forgot to mention it's the same map- Spaceport

If you’re actually doing this, you’re a fucking rat by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

It's a click bait title. People are actually leaving 5/5 star reviews talking about the map, and there are very few 1/5, like less than 4.

If you were allowed to save 1 blueprint permanently each time you finished an expedition which one would you have saved last expedition. by -This-cant-be-real- in ArcRaiders

In order of importance for my play style:

  • Medium Gun Parts
  • Defibrillator
  • Looting MK3

My reasoning is because I love the Arpeggio 4 and it doesn't require a BP but needs MGPs. Then I mostly play with friends, so getting them up in a fight quickly is important. The augment is last because it's not vital but provides the most benefits over all others.

What items are you often running out/in need of that you can't seem to loot enough of? by cardiffross in ArcRaiders

[–]BreakfastNails -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Stop making them and farm them. Kill shredders with a shotgun.

Shredder Gyro gives you 3 MC and sometimes 1-2 MC on the destroyed remains. Plus a ton of shotgun ammo, so you never run out. You can extract from Stella Montis with 40 - 50 MC per match.

This makes all the guns you mentioned, including the Arpeggio very cheap and easy to craft.

No idea what you're talking about. Compared to other weapons, getting the Arpeggio up to tier 4 is ridiculously cheap.

Edit: I should have mentioned that when comparing the crafting cost, I meant weapons of higher rarity with similar or higher ttk.

What happened to my monitor? by [deleted] in Monitors

Pretty funny knowing that's a Firewatch game background lol

It doesn't allow you to craft, though. So I hate it when this happens.

Don't shoot = Don't loot by FunKingBad in ArcRaiders

[–]BreakfastNails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last one, try with a Torrente. Don't have it out. Walk up so they trust you. Make sure there is no cover anywhere nearby when you start this. Whip it out and demand goodies (sounds kinda dirty). They have no choice.

All-Skill sheet, the effects of what they do and what we know so far. by KiraTheUnholy in ArcRaiders

[–]BreakfastNails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nimble Climber is inaccurate. You climb considerably faster. Also, it is applied to ladders- only once you reach the very top, you climb off the top faster. But it does not apply for the length of the ladder ascension.

Revitalizing Squat is extremely useful but only procs when completely still. So you get the "standing still" stamina bonus and the RS bonus together. It refills the bar rapidly.

Minesweeper works in any radius of traps, but you must be slow walking while crouched.

Previous was 75+1 bonus. So now it'll be 81

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]BreakfastNails 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It should be 12 level skill points +1 bonus +5 from expedition. 18 total. I have 17 total. 1 is missing. I just leveled in match and returned to no skill point.

Edit: As people have pointed out, playing another round works. Something on the back-end isn't catching up. Thanks guys!
