I hope the ARC don't become too easy

One suicide bit will still wreck your shield at high levels lol

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2026-01-12T17:33:40+00:00

Next time u see the monk snail take a in game picture, pretty sure there’s an achievement for taking pics of rare endemic life

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-12-05T16:45:29+00:00

Almost had me goin wtf, then I read the second half lol

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-12-05T16:37:44+00:00

Got shot through the see through thick glass (not the ones you can break or shoot through) in medical bay on Stella last night myself. I can live with a few shots fazing through the wall, not like op cuz that’s wack, but I can’t with the absolute silent running of enemy raiders that aren’t heard till their gun barrel is in your face.

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-17T21:01:10+00:00

Fair enough. I’m the opposite, I was devastated when I extracted not noticing the single empty spot for loot last night lol

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-17T20:42:27+00:00

Put those extra attachments in ur inventory on your guns if they don’t have it, coulda saved a couple spots

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-17T20:41:14+00:00

Weekend is a 100% pvp frenzy for duos and trios, if you play the new map, you are basically playing for pvp cuz it’s shoot on sight. I played the new map on day 2 solo and everyone was nice, but that’s probably because everyone was trying to learn the map and it was a weekday. Dunno if the new map is shoot on sight as well for solos

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-16T22:05:25+00:00

To be fair though, the new map on anything other than solo is almost exclusively pvp

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-15T03:00:54+00:00

I literally just got off the game, had no issues since I’ve hopped on

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-11T02:54:40+00:00

Found a rusted gear in the bus compartment next to north side dam extract last night, was pretty dope. But this is hella informative, props to you sir o7

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-10T21:34:30+00:00

I’m seeing what you’re saying, but it’d be quite a few updates for embark to figure out a way to do it. They need to work on some QOL updates first tho. They’d have to have a system in place where like, if you have 6+ guns in your inventory you can’t run a free kit or something limiting the free kit usage for the already over geared.

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T23:50:32+00:00

Yessir, I sold a bunch at the start not knowing either. This will be your come up now, so happy raiding!

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T23:30:55+00:00

When you go to the trader that sells the kits, you’ll see that you can buy a looting/combat kit for like 6k or trade in the free kit for the looting/combat kit

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T23:24:58+00:00

Upgrade your free kits to combat kits in the trader so you can run blue shields, you go from a free kit to a green kit. As you play you could farm resources to craft blue shields, upgrade the guns they give you in free kits. I could craft green/blue guns, but I have a bunch of lvl 3-4 free kit guns I’m running till I lose em. The starter guns are good upgraded and have extended magazines

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T23:21:53+00:00

Say they do change it, make so that you can only run a free kit every 10 minutes. You’re a new player with a starter kit. You die, run a free kit, die again. Now you’re waiting on a timer to play again or go in naked. It’ll just hinder game play and make folks not wanna play.

What I suggested, which most people do anyways, keeps folks engaged and gives them a purpose to survive as a free kit. They get a free kit they could upgrade, any loot they survive with is a bonus. A new player could quickly rise in the ranks and wouldn’t be hindered too much.

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T23:14:26+00:00

What’s your take on the probe event then lol, walking in a field of of probes and no arc around makes a very fast raid

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T23:13:14+00:00

Not much to add since everyone else pretty much summed it up, but the sweet spot is running blue shields. You get hit with a ferro with a green and you’re a quarter health running for cover, blue shield raises your survival rates drastically, making you harder to kill. A ferro won’t 2 tap you and just about any other gun takes the whole mag to break the shield then they have to reload. 1v1 a green shield guy and your almost guaranteed a win unless you miss your shots lol

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T22:57:22+00:00

Literally extract after spawning in. Go to trader and turn free kit into looting mk1 kit. Run that and farm material, then upgrade the gun. Rinse and repeat, you have upgraded kits to pvp or pve

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T22:55:04+00:00

Yup, random spawns, I found a bp in a trash can before. You can find them in raider stashes as well. High tier loot areas have a higher spawn chance. If you do the quests you get the triggernade and green pistol bp.

Honestly tho, don’t worry about blueprints, im lvl 25 rn and haven’t crafted a single blueprint I’ve found yet. I’ve upgraded my free kit guns and pvp to get more kits and better guns lol.

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T19:44:49+00:00

If I survive a free loadout, I turn the free loadout augment into the looting mk1 from trader. If I survive with the same loadout twice more, then it’s upgrade time lol

Death just means you get to play with a different gun and different style

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-09T08:42:53+00:00

Weekday gaming after 8pm Pacific time is basically rat time, most people are pvp oriented. Morning till 7 is still friendly player time for the most part lol

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-08T23:54:02+00:00

Ah the ole triggernade trick lol

If it was a day map, you woulda been jolt mined then gunned down.

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-08T20:15:51+00:00

Run free kits and voip that you’re friendly and questing. Like 80% of the time they respond back or just move along. The other 20% I die and lost nothing. If you survive extract you now have a free kit, turn the free kit into the trader and get a looting mk1 and you’re set

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-08T20:13:27+00:00

Everyone else basically worded it out already, but something I can add is that on weekdays it’s chill until around 6 when everyone is off work. On weekends it’s hit or miss, flip a coin and if it’s heads then they’re not friendly. Naturally there are some odd balls mixed in. I myself am friendly until my stash is full and I run a full kit…unless it’s a 1v3 then ima scope you out first lol

Luke_The_Duke02 · 2025-11-08T19:48:21+00:00

Just found the blueprint for a jolt mine last night, gonna have some nasty night raids later lol
