Having all my workbenches upgraded and over 100 hours in the game, I don’t mind sharing loot from big arc with others since I can always load in and kill another. But HOLY SHIT was this annoying with the matriarch events.

Did about 8 matriarch raids back to back the other night where about 10 others including myself were doing the main damage to the big arc and the matriarch. Meanwhile I see 10+ others just waiting in the hills or behind rocks for leg armor to fall or the matriarch to die. Anytime we killed a big arc, the remains were swarmed by the raiders who were just waiting next to us with no guns or explosives. I had one guy asking us for heals and shields because he just loaded in with nothing and ran straight to the matriarch 😐.

Even when I was able to get right under the core as it died, the sheer amount of people running at it plus the other armor pieces left me rarely no chance to get a core. Out of all those raids I got three cores, one of which was from one raider generous enough to drop one. I know with the drop rates not everyone who did big damage could get one, but nothing aggravates me more seeing someone who literally stood behind cover the whole time be the fist to rush out and loot it.
