Shadow Raid gold spawn chance?
What's the spawn chance for gold on shadow raid? I've already gotten the achievement but i'm trying to get the daily job "i will take with impunity" but the gold never spawns.

Don't try that on Normal difficulty, because the chance of Gold to spawn is very low. The chance increases as the difficulty increases, so try it Overkill or Deathwish.

try to ECM Rush Shadow Raid with a four men crew; you will eventually get it in no time

"Eventually get it in no time"?

I personally don't recommend an ECM rush for Shadow Raid. I Will Take With Impunity is a pretty easy achievement with minimal co-ordination and 2 people. With luck it can even be gotten solo.

How the hell can you secure Artifact during an ECM rush?!?

I Will Take With Impunity
In the Shadow Raid job, secure a piece of every available type of loot, including money, gold, cocaine, artifact, painting, weapons and server.

Loot dumpster in front of the warehouse.


The funny thing is, if this asset would be removed, ECM rushing this heist would be impossible.

Since the only thing on that list that you are not garuanteed is the gold, and it has 9 possible boxes where it can spawn in, the daily is very doable.

Also, if you did not know, there is zero reason to not play this map on Deathwish every time. None of the difficulty-dependant things affect a typical playthrough in any way. Get control of the warehouse (cam room and helipad), kill up to 4 of the 5 murkies, loot everything via zipline/sewers.

Better ask the chances to get gold on armored transport heists. :(
Helumii Jun 12, 2016 @ 11:18am 
Isn't there always gold on DW? In the transport heists i mean.

Well, that's not 100% true, as Deathwish does add an additional security guard patrolling the southern (I guess?) alley leading to the waterfront. Still, killing him isn't a big deal if you have enough experience with the level. But yeah, overall, DW is the way to go for more money/exp.

One thing I will say, though, is that the gold does indeed seem to have the lowest spawn rate. I've played DW Shadow Raid dozens of times and you have better luck finding artifacts than gold in the crates. I don't know what the rate is exactly, but I know where Helumiberg is coming from when it simply doesn't spawn sometimes when trying to do the side job. Most things are either guaranteed to spawn at least once, or spawn so often that it's irrelevant, but the gold is an exception to both.

I got the side job but yeah i usually get 4-5 artifacts but no gold.

You can force the artifact to spawn with a 100% chance.

Then you have at least one if RNGesus doesn't like you.

Right, I wasn't saying that the artifacts are hard to come by or anything. When it comes to finding one of each loot type, gold is the only potential issue. Usually gold does spawn once somewhere, but not always. Everything else is more or less guaranteed.
Helumii Jun 13, 2016 @ 1:39am 
Paintings have a small chance of not spawning but everything else is always there.
Vincent Jun 13, 2016 @ 2:17am 
The loot actually spawns everytime you spawn into the map.
The problem is finding it while avoiding guards.
