With Outriders and their new patch, obtaining legendary weapons and armor has never been easier
People Can Fly doubles the drop rate of Legendary gear, with several more adjustments to reduce grinding.)
Grinding days and days to obtain a legendary weapon is not something that many people are passionate about. And less in a game like Outriders that, although it has a strong cooperative multiplayer component, has a looter shooter for one player at its base. Well, in People Can Fly they have listened to the complaints of their users about the negligible probabilities of these drops, and they have implemented a new patch that seeks to end their regrets when it comes to getting legendary equipment. Yes, the new game update doubles the drop rate for legendary weapons and armor , but that’s just the beginning.
Posted on Reddit, the Outriders patch notes – available from the 22nd – point to major changes in everything surrounding legendary gear . As we mentioned, the most notable change is that 100% increase in drops of this rarity, but that is accompanied by another series of adjustments to alleviate frustrations, and improve the overall experience of players with the loot. The changes are as follows:
Outriders adjustments on legendary drops
- The drop rates of all legendaries are increased by 100%
- The level ranges of the legendary have been eliminated, so all legendary items can be obtained at any level
- An anti-duplication system is implemented for legendaries, so that if a character gets a drop that they already have in their inventory, a second random roll will be made to change the item. This only offers a second roll, it does not guarantee that the second item will not be the same as one already possessed.
- Boss scripted loot (Chrysaloid, Yagak) will now include all legendary helmets that are not class specific.
- The Luck system has been improved, and players should no longer experience long periods of time without being touched by a legendary item in the endgame.
As you can see, all the changes seek to make the experience of the players more pleasant, by making it easier to obtain legendary weapons and armor , and help them not always touch the same ones. Something that will surely be appreciated by the more than 3.5 million unique players that Outriders has had since its premiere, completely exceeding Square Enix’s expectations.
In fact, the Japanese company was very pleased with the game a few weeks ago, highlighting the decision to launch it on Xbox Game Pass : “We believe that our decision to make Outriders available with Xbox Game Pass as soon as the title was launched also it worked in our favor, “they said. Know that you have the Xbox service available for one euro for the first three months , and that, if you have not yet tried the title, on our website you can consult a complete analysis of Outriders .
