Question about airdrops when survivor is maxed
I finally maxed the survivor skill line and am no longer getting XP for airdrops. Do they count towards your legendary stuff or nah?

yes they count towards legend levels
Yes, once skill-tree is maxed out all the experience gained from it transfer to Legend skill-tree.


Example Power rank 24 unlocks Legend skill-tree, now fighting zombies add to your Legend experience, same as DROPs from Survivor skill-tree once it reaches rank 25.

That being said to level up Legend make sure to be on Nightmare mode as it gives highest Legend experience multiplier. 10x at day and 20x at night. The DROPs are affected by this except night double booster, delivering a DROP on Nightmare mode equals 120,000 Legend experience regardless day or night. Also +10% experience per player in lobby.

Fastest ways of obtaining DROPs are quarantine zones, such as Stuffed Turtle. There is guide about this at my profile.

Have fun.
The lovely thing about legend you can adjust anything, and change it suit any occasion. Happy Hunting.

What do you mean by "DROPs"? Are we still talking about air drops, or are you referring to something else? Because I thought there were no air drops in quarantine zones, but I could be wrong. Been a while since I've done one.

DROP = Disaster Relief On-site Package.

Airdrops stop after certain part in story (The Pit) and static airdrops aren't that great way of obtaining DROPs.

DROPs are in quarantine zones, for example you can grab 3 DROPs in the first part of Stuffed Turtle quarantine zone, reenter and repeat. There is fastest leveling up guide at my Steam profile.
Oh. Well the airdrops are in the DLC, which is where I'm at in the game. Thanks for the clarification!

That's right, the airdrops come back in The Following. However trying to level up Legend from that... is going to be extremely slow. If you want to level up Legend faster then quarantine zones are possibly the best place, but play however you feel the most comfortable and have most fun, that's the important thing.
Is it possible to go between the DLC and the main game? I enjoyed the quarantine zones, wouldn't mind going back honestly.

Yes you can do that anytime from Main Menu > Play > Campaign / The Following. Your character will always carry on between every time, so you can bring items from The Following into campaign such as crossbow and etc.
Question: Normally dying subtracts points from survivor(as I understand it), if your max survivor does death take its toll(HA!) from your legend points?

Also sorry if this is hard to understand, i are not english good today.
The penalty for dying is losing only survivor or legend points that you've earned toward your next level. On Hard difficulty you lose 25% of those points, and on Nightmare you lose 100%. (I forget if you lose points on Normal).

So if you have 1000 points earned towards your next level, (Survivor or Legend), Hard mode deaths cost you 250, and Nightmare mode deaths cost you 1000 of your currently earned points. Dying never reduces your survivor or legend levels. (You can't go from a Legend level 10 to 9)

Finally, when you play on Hard you earn points at a higher rate, and when you play on Nightmare it's even higher. Points are also doubled at night.

Playing on normal. It seems to be a either set or a low percentage.

Like 800 points for dying with about 12000 in stock, so yeah nice and generous.

Yes you do lose points on normal.
