Fancy Lead Loadouts


(bgyoshi) #1

Recently I’ve stopped using loadout cards and just stick with the lead cards for all mercs, just to keep play interesting for myself. But I wonder why not release themed Lead loadouts in the themed cases? Dickens cards, Containment cards, Aimee’s release event, those kinds of things.

Maybe people are too concerned with being top tier to care about augmentless cards, but I think it’d be fun.

they actually did those kind of loadout cards but it was only during the duration of the event that took place. after that the loadout cards would be unavailable, but yeah i see your point.

I think they mean themed lead loadouts just during the event and you can’t use them after.

None of these events had themed lead cards, all of those themed cards have 3 augments on them.

And I suppose I mean themed default cards

No abilities
Stock weapons only
Just like using a default loadout, but it’s reskinned

No you’re missing the point. It’s ONLY the lead and iron loadout cards that would be themed during the event and put back to normal after

No, I mean themed default loadout cards with no augments that you can use forever. Just like the promo Alienware/Founder’s cards/etc, but with no abilities. Forever usage.

Oh ok. Would you choose from the cards with augments and the default ones?

Default Cards are disgusting, go get beautiful cobalts or something >.>

Takes far too much salvaging to get a cobalt and even at that they’re complete RNG unless I waste a bunch of money on weapon kits.

I play with default cards pretty exclusively. Sometimes I feel fancy and use an Obsidian.

hmm, I never use one myself. I have 46 Special editions I use most of the time, or one of my 27 (nearly all of which a god tier) cobalts. Kinda forgot the struggle after so long.

I have no concept of “god tier” loadouts as I’ve never noticed any one make an enemy harder to kill and nothing’s ever stood out as particularly useful. And since playing with default cards and noticing that performance doesn’t drop even in the slightest, I’m convinced the loadouts are just a shiny cover. The only thing that matters is how adept with a specific primary you are, and nothing else.

Anyway, yes, more shiny and fun looking default cards. It’d be great!

well lets see here.
BL32 and A31 Fletcher = Lock On plus kickass weps is amazing
383 Sparks, Get Up is a god send
M92 Skyhammer - Drilled is great and can save ya, and Explodydendron is great esp anti EV.
B81 Arty, Drilled is amazing, BR is far better than a Dreiss, Exploydendron is great, esp on anti obj

etc…

Yeah none of that is particularly good in any way, just small useful upgrades that have no true impact on the game below the very top top level of play. The primary weapon is all that really matters.

I’d hardly call any of that god tier
