Can't get any Level 6 Lead Car Battery anymore

[magnificent]

Hi, at the very beginning (in first 10 game days) of a new map I got five level 6 lead car bettery from cars, but after that it just stopped and I couldn't find anything over level 4 despite salvaging 50 cars. Is there anyone else having this problem? Thanks for comments already.

I'm amazed you got so many Q6 batteries in such a short time at first, but that's just how it's gonna be- RNG is gonna RNG. 50 cars is a fairly low sample size, just keep harvesting, you'll find more eventually.

WHat are you doing with the level 6 batteries? You know those have no bearing on your vehicle stats after you build it right?

Day 10 is too early for a solar farm so I cant believe you're using it in a battery bank either. Unless... are you using a battery bank without recharging it? I'd stick to a generator during that period TBH, the fuel is infinite.

GL either way.

I didn't need them early game and i used lower levels of them to craft vehicles. I know they don't any effect on vehicle stats. But now passed over 40 days and i need them for battery banks to get max. efficiency from solar banks. It's a little bit annoying to refuel the generators every day.

You have the opposite "problem" from what you think you have. You got surprisingly lucky for the first few days. I found exactly 11 Q6 batteries in my entire 135 day game. (Just checked)

btw - Q6 isn't really required for anything. It's more of a perfectionist thing. And you can craft Q5.

You are totaly right. Q5 is my plan B already. I just wanted to know if there is a bug or something else.

you use the garbage lev 1 batteries for vehicles (really they should have tied start reliability into grade of battery used), it would be an easy fix...

LEV 6 batteries you use to power your junk on horde night. or sell.

then you have a battery bank.. that you throw the junk into , to charge it up, then melt it down or sell it off.

I really like these little touches...

Also the RNG IS broken.... you get a clean map/ restart and all the loot is like top tier
then after the game runs a bit, the loot becomes poor quality...

Point & case... do the letter boxes & book shop after a new map or restart....
it's like all the hard to get books (car/bike/copter frames) are just THERE!!!!....
