Wendigo Colossus takes too much ammo

[SydneyAngel]

I dont think this event gives fair value for the amount of ammo it needs to complete. I think the SBQ is still best bet honestly. Do you any of you agree ?

They balanced them for legacy weapons and hacked weapons not for legitimate players

The 5 minute entrance wait, the duration of the fight and lack of decent rewards does make the queen far superior

Plus the queen gives improved kits

[Hefutoxin]

They are balanced for a group of end-game geared people, not a couple randoms with terrible builds.

That is obvious. I didnt think a group of level 25 with broken pipe guns was going to do the job. I think because of the added toughness should provide more reward.

More reward of what though?

The best part about doing Earle are the screws. How about 50 Ballistic Fiber for Earle himself?

Ammo is dirt cheap now with Daily Ops and the Ammo Factory Legendary.

Ballistic Fiber is very rare.

What, exactly, do you want them to add?

It was funny watching the dev stream they did just before it went live.

Most of them were 'bloodied' builds in Thorn/Solar armour and dying a lot.

Devs really need to play random player accounts and not dev boosted when they balance this stuff.

No its not, you can get 8-20 of them for 25 caps + a bunch of other bonuses

Grafton yard, just claim it and the fibre if your reward

[DivineLion]

ammo factory perk

[FormerFishFarmer]

Power Armor + Liquid Courage + Fury + Martial Artist + Incisor + Cursed Pickaxe = an easy alt. build for even squishy-ish Ranged characters.

[Hobo Misanthropus]

Earle should always net more ammo than you use. The Glowing Wendigos drop on average 20 rounds for your equipped gun. On top of Acid and screws. People forget about other buffs, stacking Pscyhobuff and Ballistic Bock/High Voltage Hefe, for example, is a +40% damage bonus. Note that to get the ammo from the Glowing Wendigo Spawns, you don't actually need to attack them, but someone on your team does. If you need time to collect ammo, have a shotgunner in your group take out Earle's legs. He is vulnerable to crippling, although crippling both legs is not recommended as it can trigger a clipping glitch that causes Earle to drop through the floor.

That said, sure, Earle should give better rewards, he doesn't even have the Ultracite Calishocks in his pool.

They are not that rare I have over 100 of them
Your right ammo factory legendary maxed out is great
It should be more than SBQ. On another note I’m sick of getting ultracite power armor left leg and torso plans yet the plan I need never drops. In my opinion it’s the stupids drop rate I have ever seen

Ballistic Fiber is very rare. Rewards, Military Duct Tape, and Ammo bags. That's it.

Compare that with screws, which are found damn near everywhere. Yet still uncommon enough for people to farm the Wendigo spawns at Earle for them.

You skipped the important question:

[lucg]

Maybe , they must adjust to how many players participate (like Daily Ops), a single player must be able to take them down (Earl, Wendigo Colossuss/no timer and ScorchedBeast Queen) within the time limit ... , make them a little bit tougher than SheepSquatch and Mirlurk Queen ...

bloodied builds aren't even really that strong. i run full maxed out bloodied and everything still feels like it takes too long to kill
the thing with skinner boxes is you can't make them too enjoyable for whatever reason
