Finding OP weapons early :3
Anyone got any stories of stumbling on hilariously OP items out of the gate? I've got a few:

Best: Finding an ADVANCED Razorback At level 2 on Kreet (Yes, literally during the Tutorial) at RNG POI: Abandoned Fuel Depot. It was guarded by a Cloaking Terrormorph

Runner up: Finding TWO ADVANCED AA-99's AND AN ADVANCED SOLSTICE in the POI Deserted UC Listening Post on Jemison (Level 10)

Other things I've found really early (Sub level 20 in level 1-10 star systems when these are clearly Level 40-50 weapons)

Advanced Bridger (Can't remember POI)
Advanced Regulator (Find these all the time, at POI Abandoned Listening Post, not to be confused with Deserted UC Listening Post)
Advanced Big Bang (Abandoned Colony Wars Era Barracks) The rarest, I've only ever found these on "Life Bearing" worlds

There was a civilian outpost near the kreet pirate base at the beginning of the game.
It is like a store inside, in a glass case behind the counter is an advanced razorback & advanced old earth hunting rifle.
(I think these are always advanced, correct me if I'm wrong.)
The razorback almost always glitches out to a place you can loot it, and the old earth hunting rifle usually glitches behind the case (can't get), but sometimes also pops out.
You don't find ammo for the razorback for a while, maybe the gun shop in New Atlantis Residential District can have some for sale early.

Advanced Bridger is another civilian outpost, I think the one with 2 igloo shaped buildings.

Deserted UC Listening Post: 2 Advanced AA-99s and Advanced Solstice are behind an expert locked door.
One of the pre-set landing spots on Jemison has this PoI.
(It is not hard to find elsewhere though.)

Colony Wars Barracks does indeed require a habitable planet.
You can get a basic named big bang from behind the counter in the bar in 'The Well' in New Atlantis. It is still pretty good at low level (if you can find ammo).

I found an advanced Urban Eagle somewhere at very low level, can't remember where though.

You can steal some good guns from the gun shop in Hopetown.
(I think possible for Advanced Bridger & Advanced Magshear or something)

Please report this to Bethesda. Its a spawning bug, and its happening across the game atm. I had weapon crates with 3 guns in it and 3 sets of ammo, and weapon stands with overlapped weapons and ammo spawns.

The container contents respawn after a certain time.
If you load the area without looting them, then come back 25+ days later that happens.
It is how the display cases work in this game :/
(Or if a quest updates the area it can happen faster, like Red Devil HQ at some points in UC Vanguard quest.)

I just think it's really cool, but probably an oversight, that you can find super high quality weapons early like this. Reminds me of "YE GOODE OLDE DAYES" of Morrowind where you can get Daedric weapons at level 1 if you know where to look (or are extremely lucky/exploration driven on a virginal playthrough)
"FARTFIELD DUSNT REWARD EXPLERASHION" mfs when I show them the 400 damage Big Bang I found at level 2 from exploring :3

It literally took Starfield 3 minutes to be a better exploration game than Lmao Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk.
