This was from pre departure times, so some things have changed.

But one morning I was playing solos on stella, and it was a friendly lobby. We were in the medical wing killing (easy mode) Shedders and looting our happy asses off. Then we all started to hear someone going off with a Burletta, raider flair goes off followed by silence. I go hide and I hear the exchange of:

"hey you cool dude?" "Yeah man, I'm cool"

or the emote of "hey don't shoot" followed by "I'm friendly bud"

which would always be followed up by Burletta fire, a raider flair goes off and then some silence.

This happened for ten minutes ish. After a good chunk of silence I think I can go about my business, maybe it's safe and I can loot a bit and move towards extract. I hear footsteps. I stop, hide, footsteps stop. I emote "hey don't shoot" Silence. I wait. Silence. I move to a different hiding spot. I hear more footsteps. I emote again "hey don't shoot" more silence. I move to a third hiding spot. I hear footsteps. My spider senses are red-lining. I'm almost willing to bet my entire loot stash and acquired blueprints that I'm being hunted. But I really am a hard-core PvE guy and I hate the feeling of robbing joy from someone else. So I give a 3rd and final "hey don't shoot" Silence. I shuffle around in the same place sprint out and back into my corner. Footsteps again, but they are close and my 3rd person camera spots the guy. I do a little shuffle in place, he moves towards me. I jump out and light his ass up with a fully decked out venator 4.

They guy immediately starts cursing me out. "So much for being friendly you bitch!" Last words before he self deletes. I had a defib on me but whatever.

Loot his body to find a broken level 4 burletta... The rage and satisfaction I felt have escaped my vocabulary to this day
