Night Airdrops More rewarding?

[Ronin Ghost]

Hey Peeps,

I've searched a bit but couldn't find any definitive answers.

So my question(s) is,

1) Do you get more XP for finding and turning airdrops in to quartermaster at night than you do during the daytime?

2) Is the loot from the airdrops better at night or the same? (Is there EVER any loot in the drops? as of now, I've never gotten anything I could use personally)

Thanks in advance for your help and attention.
As always, you guys rock.

1) No I do not think so.
2) There is no loot that your character can use. And thus there is no better loot.

It's the same crap day or night.

Thanks guys.
So one more follow up query.

I'm running around unlocking the safehouses that are far out of the way presently, and I have picked up two airdrops and not returned them yet.

Will I get credit for both airdrops when I make my way back to the quartermaster, or am I shooting myself in the foot and stacking them only to get credit for one when I finally make my way back to turn them in?

Thanks again in advance for your help.

Yes Ronin - the game nicely remembers all the drops you have collected and credits you once you turn them in, even if you have collected like 6 or 7 before doing so.

Also (and I'm not 100% sure of this) you get more credit for drops you collect at night - it doesn't matter when you turn them in.

Thanks Grumpy.
You just moved ahead of "Sleepy" as my favorite Dwarf. :)

I came in with about 20 of those disaster packages after doing several quarantine zones in a row, collecting airdrops, and that bunker quest without remembering to bring the stuff in.
Almost leveled up three survivor ranks that day XD

I just want to correct a mistake here. The airdrops do have loots your character can use. While the left side of an air drop will always have the relief package you have to deliver to a quatermaster, the right one is either a medpack or a crate of flares, both of which can be used.

The "advantage" of going after airdrops at night is the fact you can take as long as you want to get to them, because the other faction's men won't come out at night for obvious reasons. That's of course assuming you get there before dawn. Also interestingly enough the area aroud a drop produces UV light thanks to the flare dropped with it, which is an interesting quirk.

While you don't get more xp from the airdrops, every minute spent outside of a safe zone at night give you survivor xp as long as you don't die. Every xp gained in agility and power is also doubled.
