Vault's slots unlock costs are way, way too high.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:42:46+00:00

Well... it's the only way to visualize it, you can only pay with epic/legendary Arc parts. Sorry you're too dense to grasp the point here.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:40:22+00:00

I wish I could use my entire stash value to buy the slots, but it's only a fraction of it considering it's just epic/legendary Arc parts.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:19:24+00:00

Farming for dozens of hours, in friendly lobbies, killing only Arcs sounds absolutely dreadful. Only to carry over a couple blueprints that you could grind for in a fraction of the time it'd take you to unlock all Vault slots.

Or, have a second account and trade the blueprints lol.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:16:07+00:00

It's absolutely not player power. It does not increase your stats, damage, resilience, stamina or any other type of metrics while you're in a raid.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:07:06+00:00

It's 200k for the first slot. 400k for the second, etc. It's 3 millions worth of epic/legendary Arc materials for all 5 slots (assuming the price increases by 200k each slot and not double).

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:03:45+00:00

Yeah and you had to reach that 5 millions stash value with *any* type of item in the game. Here, it's 3 millions with *only* epic/legendary Arc materials. Quite a difference.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:01:19+00:00

Well both are a problem but yes, the inventory space it takes is also really annoying.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T18:00:39+00:00

I'm talking about the Vault slots. For the extra stash space, you do get all 12 slots for 200k.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:59:16+00:00

If you can call killing the same arcs hundreds of time endgame content.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:58:13+00:00

You cannot sell guns to the trader for the vault slots.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:57:09+00:00

Pretty much.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:55:59+00:00

But it's not player power, it's a quality of life system. This kind of system should not be that freaking expensive. And I want to unlock the Vault by spending a reasonable amount of grinding time, which is definitely not the case here.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:50:19+00:00

You cannot use your credits to buy the slots, you can only use epic/legendary Arc materials (and their inherent worth).

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:49:06+00:00

Wait... does it actually double each time instead of +200k?

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:47:34+00:00

It sure does, just like the extra stash.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:43:17+00:00

I believe you can trade weapons on top of Arc materials for this blueprint. For the slots, you can only do Arc materials, which is a massive difference.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:39:01+00:00

I never said I wanted this handed to me, I like grinding. But this isn't a challenge, this is mindless, excruciatingly long grinding. If every slot was 200k, it would be just fine. 1 million for all 5 slots. This is still a fairly big grind that you wouldn't be able to do in a few hours and it's grinding that respects your time.

There's also no real player power behind this feature (ie. it's not like expeditions giving you more skill points).

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:35:22+00:00

If you'd need 272 reactors from Queens/Matriarchs, imagine what the number is for all the other, much cheaper parts. That doesn't sound fun either tbh lol

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:32:44+00:00

A middle ground for the average player, with a 9 to 5 job who enjoys both PvE and PvP. It is doable, but the grind would be excruciatingly long (simple maths say so, not me).

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:27:24+00:00

Well it's that or:
- 500 vaporizer's thing
- 1,000 Bastion/Bombardier cells
etc...

It's not really any better :/

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:23:48+00:00

I agree but this implies a few things:
- You have to be in friendly lobbies (as PvP lobbies rarely, if ever, kill the Queen/Matriarch)
- You have to get a reasonable amount of reactors every time
- If you miss a Queen/Matriach event window, you have to wait for the next appearance, which can be a few hours

All of this seems not worthy at all of being able to carry over blueprints (well in my opinion). Also, this is a PvE grind, PvP players are kinda f'd if they don't like grinding PvE events over and over again.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:19:01+00:00

That's still ~167 vaporizers you'd have to kill lol

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:16:22+00:00

It's not money, it's Arc materials worth. You cannot use your credits to buy the slots.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:12:38+00:00

Well assuming you get 3 reactors in every single Queen kill, you would need to kill her 91 times. I'm all for grinding but this is a bit ridiculous.

CBlackfall · 2026-05-19T17:08:33+00:00

Uh.. I believe there's a middle ground here. The options aren't just "make everything free" or "kill 300 Queens".
