RNG is a *****

Here’s a little experience of mine with the trade up system that I just had to get out.

“Hey, I have a few irons that I don’t want, and I always wanted to replace that B61 Collaborative Rifleman card for Skyhammer, so let’s try for another Skyhammer card.”

gets a bronze B61 Collaborative Rifleman

“…Okay… Well, now I got some bronze that I don’t need as well, so let’s try this again.”

gets a silver B61 Collaborative Rifleman

“…FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!”

Did you at least get good augments? :stuck_out_tongue:

They’re good, if you plan on only playing as a support. Yeah, it has Quick Slash, but Chopper is better imo to one-hit kill low-medium classes from behind.

Tell me about it, I now got a Silver AND a Gold B61… What is it about that card…


(umberInlet) #5

So I just crafted a bronze Fragger, and guess what primary weapon I have on him…

A FREAKIN BR-16! FML!

Oh my God, this gun is so bad for Fragger. It shouldn’t even exist as a loadout choice imo. Fragger is all about suppression and pushing. A very accurate burst fire weapon is to get long range kills while peeking from cover or to be used by fast moving mercs…

Would prefer to see Fragger’s third gun be a Timik. :confused: Hope they realize how bad it is to give him the BR-16.

I got the BR-16 in my Obsidian loadout :’(


(umberInlet) #9

It ******* happened again! Got another Fragger loadout w/ BR-16. Stahp! :tired_face:

Btw, I only have crafted 2 bronze Fragger loadouts up to this point, so I have 2 of these BR-16 cards.

I know that it’s RNG’s fault, but goddam this shouldn’t be happening!


(umberInlet) #10

Guess what I got from my free Elite case today…

Fix your ****! This game obviously hates me! Who the heck owns Arty anyways!?


(umberInlet) #11

Just used the leads from the two free normal cases and got an Iron Skyhammer, and used that w/ others to trade up to a Bronze. Guess what happened…

This is also a goddam dupe as well…

I am sick of this gun already…

Play medic. Medics can’t get BR-16. (Though you’ll probably end up with tons of Blishloks instead)


(umberInlet) #13

I main Sawbonez, Bushwacker secondary. I want to get good loadouts for all of my characters so that I can be versatile. But, this BR-16 bull**** is not helping. I can’t do well with that thing at all.


(umberInlet) #14

I just got this from a normal crate.

This game is a ****ing dick to me…


(umberInlet) #15

@MissMurder , can I get a free bronze card of my choice please for my troubles? :disappointed:


(umberInlet) #16

Aaand the game just sh@t on me again when I traded up my silvers


(Mr-Penguin) #17

The ghosts of BR-16s pasts are obviously haunting you.


(Serious Sam) #18

So, I counted. Am I correct that you have gotten BR-16 loadouts 9 times in a row now?


(umberInlet) #19

Whenever I trade up for a bronze or higher loadout for a merc that has access to the BR-16, yes.


(Fatcamp) #20

Something ive felt is, of the majority cards you swap have that weapon or like if i trade a fragger with br16 in the cards it feels like it is a higher chance i get that one. I dont know if that is true or not but that might explain it. LIke it rolls a higher chance on the perks and weapons the cards migth have that u are trading in.
