Thanks Marty, appreciate it!Sending you a DM now

I noticed that the Security lockers are now spawning randomly when I went to the Santa Maria houses and only one was present, but I also noticed a button in there that did not appear to do anything.
Seems it's a new Music room puzzle (which I guess will reward the Guitar).

I've have that done to me. I was baffled as to why someone would do that. They don't gain anything.Who are these nasty people who kill you, once you are in the lift and pulling the lever down to go home

I get taking a few potshots to get the daily. but actually knocking you out seems pointless.
I just started the winter event. it's good. typically I sold a wine bottle earlier today. (btw keep candle sticks, coffee pots records light bulbs and wine bottle)

You get extra XP for damaging other raiders. Some say its victimless as you don't lose anything even if downed, they just get the xp for it. I suppose you do lose a bit of shield durability.

Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Which adds up if you keep needing to buy or farm batteries to make sure you go in with a full medium shield every round.
Much more trivial for a light shield ofc.
True if they only down you, but not if they finish you off. I had two guys in solos unload on me in a Dam lift after sliding in as the doors went up. Getting some damage for the daily Feats I understand, but that just seems a bit ratty to me. Only happened once though.
had it done to me quite a few times here.

i just got v lucky. I had found the last light bulb I needed for the winter event but was in a free loadout, I was downed and crawled into extract.
a guy saw me and was just winding up to punch me out and...... the arcs which took me out fired on him. whilst he was distracted I was able to type in the terminal and made it out.

Did a few runs out tonight, nothing special, crappy loadouts, got shot by one sod so they had some crap loot to leave behind. Mainly trying to complete some quests this evening. Kept spawning miles and miles away from where I needed to be. Eventually did the damn quest on Spaceport which mean running across half the map, then on exfill I ran face first into a leaper... Which downed me. I crawled into the lift as it opened, and the other guy who'd called it took us down. I said thanks and got out with my Lidar scanner.
Did another one before that with a Harvester in it, hadn't seen those before so had no idea what I was doing... There were about 6 of us looting the thing... Then only 3 of us stuck around to take out the Queen... which was a total waste of time as it didn't seem to drop anything good.

It drops multiple legendary items that you can use as a crafting material.
(Edit - each worth 13k but they don't stack unfortunately.)
Each time the armour gets blown off the legs or elsewhere and a bit of her drops you can loot it. As well as when she finally blows up.
If someone else is looting during combat, they're the ones getting all the legendary bits.
And of course when she dies it's a mad scramble to grab the best loot. So you've got to get lucky there.
Same with the matriarch.
The harvester can have decent loot inside those three capsules that you work to open. I've seen lots of blueprints come out of those.

This is becoming a running theme with Embark, patches and fixes actually making things worse. The most annoying bug they've added in is buttons sometimes just not working at all, most notably for doors but it happens calling extracts and hatches too. The counter for the amount of a thing you want to make (like say 5x stack of 20 ammo for 100 total) just keeps resetting itself as you click. Hatches now teleport in your body which looks weird, they could have just made you invincible while entering for a second or something but they've messed with the timing, so now there's bugs where you just cant enter hatches, they teleport you out.
The first 2 of those I found in less than an hours play, how come their testing team can't find ANY of these. I just don't get it, it's so stupid.

I've also noticed this.
Particularly with crafting, but I wonder if it's an overlap issue.
The worst was when pressing e put me on the zip line, then right off again. Repeatedly as I tried to evade an Arc, instead of letting me ascend to relative safety.
I did manage to use up all my snitch scanners.
It got me an extra 30k points. And I still went down several places in the trials. Bonkers.

anyone else seen this bug ? I mentioned it earlier but if someone knows a way around it please let me know. if it happens you can't loot or anything ... but unless you want to lose your stuff you still have to extract I presume. I had this 3 games in a row last night. really annoying as it used up my entire game session all for nothing.

Well the trails are done and rewards are handed out. Expedition is now open, I signed up with 5,250,000 in the bank and 750,000 in stash so 6 milly total. I went down in the last trials like @Distracted did, but the way that seems to work is some % of the people at each tier will go down, it's mathematically impossible for everyone to just keep going up, so the people getting insane scores will pool at the top and make the later ranks harder.
Massively up on blueprints, now I have about 75% of them, so the blueprint change will be a great feature for those resetting each time.
Doing well in the event though, I'm now on like page 4, the candle holder things are very hard to get, I ran buried city and was checking apartments for like 20 games in a row to get my 3, there's good into out there on what you need for the later pages so you know what to keep, I'd advise taking a look early to make completing that easy.
