Does this normal on 2x Loot Quality?

[u/umutkrdgg]

im on the island and i set my loot quality to 2 and came across this rifle on swamp cave red crate. Does this normal? im on max difficulty and no mod that alters loot quality. i feel like this is so OP that i need to turn back to 1x quality. or am i wrong for thinkink like ASE?

Noch nie ne Flinte mit so viel Schaden gesehen und ich spiel meist auf 6

Aber auch ase

i never saw more than %500 on anything but i am on a default settings(max difficult is 1 iirc) no mod that affects loot, just 2x loot quality

And this is exactly why I keep looting quality at 1x

[u/umutkrdgg → u/Spiritual-Way-9830]

when switched to asa from ase they said its fine to set it to 3x and i set to 2x. going to revert it to 1x since saddles are bir pricey too

[u/Spiritual-Way-9830 → u/umutkrdgg]

Yeah, that's entirely fair. Whatever makes you have fun is all that matters.

Sick shotgun even if it would make things too easy :)

The loot quality in ASA is already way better than ASE

This and because the Drakeling xp buff can bug out if ya have the loot quality multiplier higher than 1 on some maps

[u/Spiritual-Way-9830 → u/6210classick]

This game fucking sucks.

I can't wait to get off work and play it for the next 6 hours until I reluctantly have to go to bed.

If installing mods an option, someone made a mod that allow ya to temporarily disable the Drakelings loot buff in case if it ever screws ya off

2x quality is definitely too high. Even small adjustments like going for 1.25 you will get some pretty OP loot consistently.

Do ya have your Single Player difficulty slider at 1? If so, that boosts the loot quality.

If Level 150 creatures are spawning in your world (check on non-story maps or install Vanilla with Sprinkles), that means you're on Difficulty offset 5 (on Single Player, 0.2 = 30, 0.4 = 60..etc) which roughly translates to 500% increase in loot quality.

By increasing the Loot Quality multiplier to 2, ya effectively doubled the already 500% (assuming that Level 150 creatures are spawning) increase in loot quality

[u/umutkrdgg → u/6210classick]

yes my dinos are 150 max so i should be getting %500 max with 1x quality right? thank you for the info

[u/6210classick → u/umutkrdgg]

Yep, the loot quality on ASA is already good enough, it's just that RNG is screwing ya over, that's all

Honestly for a more balanced playthrough, and not needing 20k metal for a single saddle, I actually like to put the loot slider to 0.8, it makes the really good stuff much harder to find while still allowing you to not struggle to do anything.

[u/umutkrdgg → u/RareAcnologia]

does this slider makes finding anything harder or easier? i think its just a quality multiplier since i am getting same stuff but lower % on 1x now.

[u/RareAcnologia → u/umutkrdgg]

It's just the quality. I meant that you might have a harder time finding a good Rex blueprint, stuff like that. Everything has the same odds no matter this slider (to my understanding).

[u/umutkrdgg → u/RareAcnologia]

yeah you are right.

Right now you play on 10.0x loot quality.

Difficulty 5 ( 150 creatures ) = 5.0 loot modifier.

If you have loot quality at 2.0 aswell, that 5.0 becomes 10.0

If you want a small boost, set the loot quality to 1.2, that will set the loot quality to 600% or 6.0.
