Got 2 box mods from scrapping one Legendary.
It was a Gatling Plasma weapon.
Inertial and Resilient.
I've NEVER heard of that happening.
Anyone else?

No, but it happened. The cat is out of the bag. Now that you loosed this terrible beast from the depths of the abyss, will you be responsible for the death and destruction that occurs?
Names like Winchester, that guy who made dynamite, Oppenheimer...

if you were tall, it was only because you stood on the shoulders of giants.

Yup, happened to me yesterday. First time seeing that. Was scrapping quite a few items,thought maybe it was server catching up.

Why would I "murder" this beast? In fact, I hope it breeds often and fast enough.

For me, I don't think so. I had one Legendary item. I've been in game for some time.
One 3 star = 2 box mods - Very rare.

each * has equal chance to plop off. As well as the plans. It is FULLY inside the realm of possibility that u can get 3 box mods AND 3 plans from a single 3 star item when scrapped, but the odds of said event is exceedingly low.

It 'can' happen but probably won't for most ppl. Grats u got to see 2 at once, but don't rely on a double (or triple) roll of 1.5% twice.

(basically it rolls a d100 with each box mod twice, one @ 1.5% for the mod, 1 @ 1% for the plan, for each star. So for a 3star it rolls 6 times, 3 @ 1.5% for each mod, 3@ 1% for each plan.)

Yes, multiple box mods are possible. But according to Nuka Knights there is only one chance of 1% for a plan, regardless of the number of stars.

I think those two are one's I don't want anyway. I made a spreadsheet marking the ones I want to learn, use, and sell.

1% and 1.5% per

Assuming you didn't know the plans

so for plans its
1/100 (1%)
1/10,000 (0.01%)
1/1,000,000 (0.0001%)

loose box mods is
15/1000 (1.5%)
225/1,000,000 (0.0225%)
3375/1,000,000,000 (0.0003375%)

You hit the 1/4444 mark... its rare but not uncommon

No need for nerf. The chance already very low, and you want nerf??? Nerf came if that function is abused or exploited. But in matter of probability, what poster gain is still fair game.

Yeah, it was always designed to work this way. Each legendary item you scrap has multiple things you can get/learn. The chances to learn a basic mod, any of each legendary mod, and the chance of just getting a legendary mod are each rolled independently when scrapped. So, assuming you know none of it, Scrapping a 3* legendary has the chance of dropping a boxed mod for EACH star, then you have a chance of learning EACH star AND a basic mod.
