Alright everyone, I’ve got a quick update for you on the armor changes. These changes will be going to the TEST server tonight, and will be available for play tomorrow, EU, you will get the first crack at it when your Test Server unlocks at 8:00am - 12:00pm Pacific. As mentioned before we’re still trying to identify what the ideal way is to move forward with a long term solution, but in the short term we’ve come up with the following. Find the changes and some context below:
We have reverted the crafting time on the makeshift armor, it will retain its current live value and remain at a 1 second craft time
Helmet shred time will remain the same as it is on test at a 1 second shred time (is currently 3 seconds on live)
Laminated armors will stay in the world at their current spawn and cap rate
We are still looking into changes for the next major update (ETA coming soon) and once we have some more information about which direction we want to go, we’ll let you all know
We are going to be putting laminated armors into airdrops and we’re adjusting airdrop loot tables
47.5% of airdrops will have a laminated armor (2 laminated armors in 5’s)
47.5% of airdrops will have a hunting rifle
5% of airdrops will have both a hunting rifle and a laminated armor (2 laminated armors in 5’s)
So as a general summary, compared to the current live environment, the helmet shred times are being reduced, the makeshift armor craft time will stay the same, the laminated armor spawns will stay the same, and the airdrops will be adjusted so that every airdrop has either a laminated armor, a hunting rifle, or both.
As mentioned these are the current changes that will be going to the Test server shortly. I want to stress on the fact that we are still collecting a lot of feedback from the community and have heard a bunch of pretty epic suggestions, we will talk about further changes as we get close to getting them on the Test server.
