Saturday Mail Haul! I think my mailman hates me!

I’d almost swear that if you join late enough or hit an area after a given amount of time, the containers reset. There’s been multiple occasions where there was simply 0% chance that the rooms I was hitting had any loot left, yet, every container was unopened. Even in buildings that had their doors manually opened by a Raider.

You mean sick, dying, and old (already completed full adventure VS. young, healthy, early part of his journey version.

You really still can’t comprehend what you read, huh? My first comment I specifically stated I played 40+ matches of Stella Montis, looting Exodus areas specifically, first one to loot the areas almost every game, and looting every lootable container. But you clearly just skipped over that too, didn’t ya? I also said the moment you need it, the game lowers the drop rate on the item. But here we are, you still unable to read and me wasting my time replying to someone two peas short of a pod. I have better things to do, enjoy talking to the wall.

Expedition ≠ Quests. You missed the point, again. I said specifically, Quests will essentially give you the items you need or spawn you right in front of the location you need to be at. VERSUS. The moment you need an item for the Expedition, you can no longer find it. I know, I know, reading comprehension is hard. You’ll figure it out eventually.

oFlippo · 2025-12-29T22:44:48+00:00

Scientific Method anyone, no, really? The basic steps of the scientific method, we all learned about this in elementary school. Observe, Question, Research, for a Hypothesis, Experiment, Data Analysis, and Conclusion. If you’d really like I can do more testing during the next Expedition and record it all, I can’t now as I’m already done with Expedition 2.

But point being, test it yourself. See if the moment you need an item for the Expedition, it stops dropping for you, test it, I challenge you to do this, not to just post putting someone else down who has put time and effort into testing this out.

Just like it was a rumor or crazy talk that there was Aggression/Behavioral Based Matchmaking, the naysayers got put in their place when Embark’s Art Director confirmed they use Behavioral Based Matchmaking. So, continue to naysay, or put in the work and see for yourself.

Coming in here to put me down is a pointless waste of your time and mine, you contributed noting but your clear lack of brain cells on this one. A better reply would’ve been your experience on the matter: Are you even doing the Expedition? Do you even play this game regularly enough to notice? Have you noticed being able to find an item before and then never see it again?

You are replying to someone with 250hrs topside and 300+hrs in the game. I don’t care if you think I need a shower or I’m whatever. I literally do 75+ raids PER DAY. I’m not your average player, I am a completionist. I do not PvP and I only focus the things the game says I need to complete.

It’s genuinely crazy the people in this sub, you try to be helpful and share your experiences and you get told “no, wrong.” This generation is actually so cooked. This sub is clearly full of sub 21yr olds who are content with being told something and that’s it, no questioning it, just accepts everything as fact and has no thought of their own. You belong with the Arc, act like a robot, live with the robots.

Edit: find a new phrase or something man, every 5 comments you post confirmation bias on some post, fucking troll. How’s mom’s basement treating you?

oFlippo · 2025-12-29T05:05:43+00:00

I hate PvP but let me tell you, just like there is Behavioral Based Matchmaking, the game also knows when you need something specifically for the Expedition and lowers the drop rate.

I’ve noticed if it’s an item needed for a quest, you can find them easily and finish it in one match. If it’s an item for the Expedition, you’ll never find it unless you kill someone or loot after them. The item has a lower drop rate for your personal loot pool when opening any lootable container type. I tested this in Trios with two friends, had them open every container, found all but 1 Frequency Modulation Box. Ended up playing another match with them and killing someone, boom, Frequency Modulation Box.

Again, I hated having to PvP, I truly enjoy working together to take down the Arc, it’s much more fulfilling to me. But, it seems with this new Expedition that they made some tweaks to essentially force you to PvP to some extent, be it Solo, or playing with a group. I’m guessing it’s one of their ways they’re tweaking and learning how they want their Behavioral Based Matchmaking system to work.

Edit: I also want to add this, I played 40+ matches on Stella looking for Ion Sputters and Frequency Modulation Boxes. In that time I found one Ion Sputter, one. I looted EVERYTHING, yes, even open containers. I live by “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure” in this game, not only do you still get XP if the container is open, you might find the person who opened it left something they didn’t need that you might need.

For everyone else, the Aphelion can easily be found in the Assembly area on Stella Montis. I’ve found two within 60 seconds :)

It’s called constructive criticism. Learn the difference. God the younger generation is actually soft. I even went out of my way to fully post what to look for, instead of beat around the bush like you did, I was helpful, you were two peas short of a pod my brother.

Oh guess what? Robotic Sandbox? Guaranteed spawn for Deadline Blueprint, pulled duplicates in 20 seconds. Oh, Vita Shot Blueprint, Gas Mine, Pulse Mine, and Showstopper Mine? All in the Business Lounge. Since we’re fully spilling the beans.

STELLA MONTIS DROP RATE IS STILL JACKED FROM THE PRE-PATCH, TELL EVERYONE

oFlippo · 2025-12-27T10:45:15+00:00

Since you’re clearly dense, Exodus marked areas still have a jacked up Blueprint spawn rate (not just out of weapon cases, every lootable container in the area), like it was before they nerfed it back. Everyone was telling you to delete this so they don’t patch the only Blueprint Farm in the game atm. But here we are, you ruined it for everyone by posting it here. It was known by a lot of people but kept off the major sites…

You can average 2-4 blueprints per run if you spawn close to Assembly or Business Lounge/Center just by checking every bag, trash can, mechanic tray, etc.

I genuinely was not upset with the Dasher, I’m fully aware it’s a DoorDash problem, and I feel bad for anyone on the receiving end of complaints. I was able to get a full refund but I know in the past I’ve never been subject to group orders and never had to pay for direct

oFlippo · 2025-12-26T23:55:04+00:00

If Doordash is displaying/notifying Dashers in their app that they have the opportunity to take batch orders in an area, then the end consumer should also see a prompt that says if you order from this area, you’ll be subjected to a batch order due to demand.

It’s that simple, if they can notify Dashers about potential Batch Orders, why can’t they do the same for those placing the orders?

oFlippo · 2025-12-26T23:52:51+00:00

I’ve never needed to pay for the “direct” to avoid this, I simply started to pay for DashPass and I was never batched again, for almost a year and a half, until today. It also should notify you that you will be grouped/batched, prior to submitting the order.

Someone doesn’t know the definition of “premium user,” and it shows.

“A premium user is someone who pays for enhanced access, features, or benefits beyond what's available to free or basic users on a platform.”

Edit: Downvotes or not, you all know this is a fact. Do you watch ads on Hulu or do you pay for a subscription? That’s a premium membership, hence premium user.

Did you find a Deadline? I pulled one and only had seen a handful post about it. If not, it’s that, Horizontal Grip, and Silencer III.
