i got taken out by a rocketeer whilst holding a bunch of good loot, but luckily had already pressed the lift button, so managed to get out with the rocketeer guarding my body!! It made me think i just need to engage the big arcs next to a lift...if i die just pop off back to speranza

I don't have the blueprint for it but one of the looting backpacks have rejuvenation on for when you go down. all you have to do is keep still and your bleed out time increases. this is massive imo and saved me a few times. unfortunately I lost it when a rat killed me, and I can't craft a replacement

Fantastic augment. Just make sure you know where the last extract is, so that if and when you get downed you know where to crawl to and don't end up at a closed one as the bombs drop. Couldn't be me.
That blueprint is rare as rocking horse ****.
Apparently you can....... Just find it randomly, but after 300 or so hours I have not.
Apparently the most reliable way (take reliable with a pinch of salt....) is under the reinforced reception on Blue Gate.
However if you are not there within about 30 seconds of spawning in a fresh map it'll already be looted, let alone factor in the chance of the blueprint actually being there.
My mate found one spare (blueprint) so is giving it to me after I reset, although I do have a couple of the augments knocking around.
It did actually save me the other day, I got knocked on Spaceport right the middle under the towers, two bloody Hornets.
There was 17 minutes left and I might...... have been able to make it but someone came up and revived me. I would have 100% been dead already though otherwise.
Otherwise, it's only marginally better than Looting MK2. In fact by all means, Looting MK2 is a bloody good augment, I think if you factor in the augmentee trinket slots you almost (I think there is literally 1 in it) have as many Looting spots as the MK3 survivor.
Yes you can run a medium shield on the MK3, but I basically don't bother, I don't think the movement penalty is worth it, even with the corresponding skill at level 5.
Had probably one of the best gaming moments I can remember. Accidentally ended up on pvp lobbies.
So decided to do Stella night raid on free kits to do some pvp'n for a change. I open ip a crate as coming out of spawn and grab a apphelion blue print. Goes to immediatly extract, shredder at the extract, team mate decides to sacrifice himself trying to kill it next to the bastion and dies but lures him away. I didn't realise the ectract was closed, back up to take on the shredder and hornet. Tried to find my way to extract, with no ammo or heals barely makes it fighting shreeders etc on the way. Die trying to jump and rope down to avoid some raiders . Some guy heals me to get to extract, then 8 folk arguing wether im good enough to defib. Finally defib and 2 guys run round and blows everyone up, bar me in the mix of it. Pretty much solo extract wirh a few other now downed.
Games absolutely cinema.

Ok, so, it seems the probes spawn rate is signifcantly higher on electrical storm. Got just over 28k, that'll do.
Cheers for the tip.
Was pretty tense at the end, kinda left it to the absolute limit on time, only just made it in had half the map worth or arc chasing me and a leaper at the exit.

how do you guys find randoms in this? if I go into ab electrical storm and select party full and just do my own thing hoping I get lucky that others are also doing the challenges does that tend to work or will It just pee off my team mates for doing my own thing.
also if 2 randoms go on a killing spree will I get judged by the matchmaking regardless of if I shoot anyone or not?
