The whole premise of the game is to explore and loot items and make decisions about what to take, what to leave and how much risk you wish to endure at the potential cost of losing everything.

We have area scan, scan gloves, automatic pickup, mules, drones, all of the resources are easily collected from the POI's which are labelled clearly on your map the second you load into a raid (apart from the rare bunker which are always in the same spots on certain maps) rather than having to walk and search every nook and structure.

Oh, and autoloot. You can literally install a few more generators, blast through a run in 60 seconds by autolooting every map location which will get you straight to the recovery day battle.

Well said. People seem to overlook the usefulness of instant loot / bypassing. I only stop on landmark nodes anymore and bypass all the minor locations, less I need some materials or spare energy. Those locations are where the better loot concentrations / variety are at also instead of picking up ore and scrap metal all day.

Instant loot does grant Red Reagents. I got a Cruiser Cannon Barrel and an Nano Processor as Reagents in my current run with instant looting. It isn't as common but they do show up.

Game is updating fairly quickly. You couldn't get red materials from instant loot until the most recent patches so that comment was correct when it was made.

I find the loot chance for yellow loot like repeaters and control modules as well as nanochips could be better or be part of instant loot. ofc you can craft repeaters, but still annoying to get.

For red loot i find it more balance. You do not get a lot but you also do not need as much.

Random 3 epic or higher +1 and all +1 risk cards can also be used to force get more stuff you want. Just do not extrac other epic and higher loot or send it out via drone. If done correctly you can turn 3 loot drops into 12.
For nearly all red stuff this is as much as you ever want.

Instant loot does not allow you to get red reagents. You cannot buy them from a merchant. You can only loot them manually. You have to stop at every fat POI on the map and vacuum the locations again and again, and then in AFK mode you have to defend an outpost, where any boss dies almost instantly from your artillery. And as a result, you most likely will not get the materials you need right now, and you will repeat this run over and over again... without a challenge, without interesting situations, just running and looting the same lockers.

This was added in the latest patch.
