What do you think the "a couple of rare items, but adjusted for Interloper" in the final bunker would be?

[Asriel]

My guess would be the technical balaclava, since aviator cap do spawn in loper, and the spelunker's lantern.

Does it really have to be non-Interloper loot? Why can't Interloper players be content with just the Tales gameplay?

New aviator cap aside, you know that the new beachcombing has already broken loper beyond repair right? Being content with whatever we have rn is basically saying "this is fine" in that burning house. I think I can take some guesses and do much less dmg than the new beachcombing has done to loper gameplay.

Let us enjoy some discussion and guessing of what we are going to get, and you guys enjoy what you already get. No need to interact with us if all you are gonna do is just complain.

It's kinda funny because previously, some of you were totally against the idea of playing custom Interloper with BRA=medium (to enable the Tales) because iT's GoInG tO bE tOo EaSy.

And now that the Tales are coming to Interloper, y'all want to bring in non-Interloper loot as reward? Why not just ask for expedition parkas and such while we're at it?

Broken beachcoming loot on Interloper / low BRA is exactly the reason why we don't need to make it any more easier.

I see a lot of Lopers say they can't find a second pair of long johns, so maybe those. ^^

Yeah, it's most likely to be just your usual low BRA loot that you can get elsewhere with less effort required.

Personally, I'm just happy that they're adding the Tales to Interloper / low BRA because the narrative gameplay on my preferred settings is all I wanted. I honestly don't mind even if the final bunker were totally empty.

It could be something craftable, but not normally available as loot. That wouldn't break interloper, as the effort to find the bunker would probably take the same time as crafting. Moose satchel or bear coat for example.

Funny cuz, first, you have proven from your first reply that you are exactly no better than the people you are complaining about, so you are very very free to shut it and get off the highground you think yourself is on.

Second, you are very free to check if I, personally, have ever complained about loper not getting tales.

Third, both of my GUESSES are not necessarily my wishes, unless you are exactly that daft that you would mistake these 2 which I personally won't find surprising if that's the case. And even if they are my wishes, these 2 are not game breaking more than maybe for 0.25kg of final carry weight difference, which is nothing next to a choice of coat in loper.

Well, I'm speaking based on what I observed from the big hoo-ha from some of the Interloper players when the Tales content was just released. If you were not one of them, which I wouldn't know unless I stalked your old posts (which is creepy BTW), then my bad.

Regarding the Tales reward on Interloper / low BRA, there might not even be a special reward after all. The final bunker may just contain your usual "rare" low BRA loot like a mackinaw jacket or something. They don't necessarily have to add a special unique item, and even if there is no special reward in the end, it should not be seen as a problem IMO. That's just how low BRA life is.

Realistically though. Woodwright's and Spelunkers have been excluded from Loper until now. Perhaps they'll throw those at us or, keep those for the Trader that is supposed to come at some point. I'm just musing out loud here.

(Spelunkers, Woodwright's, Aviators Cap, etc.)

For Aviators cap, it is reported that it is indeed available on loper, just locked to very specific locations and usually DLC. I might just go and try find one in the near future in my current save. Imo it's a fitting reward for exploration and also it just happens that you also get a lot of cured leather to repair it with (iirc it requires leather to repair).

Imo Woodwright is nice and all but I wouldn't be using it at all since it's limited use, unlike the alternative rifles and Spelunkers, which is why I hoped for the latter.

[PowerOn]

Could be that new Pilot Jacket, has big warm bonus (3/5), but require leather for repair.

Leather is now available in beachcombing, but wolf carcass too, is no more need hunt wolf for make or repair Wolfskin jacket.

Or could be the Woodwright's Bow, that last longer than Survival Bow but can't be repaired or crafted, will be more a trophy in Interloper.

For Aviators cap, it is reported that it is indeed available on loper,

Yes, I find one in CH.

To be fair, leather has always been available in beachcombing since there's tons of shoes washing upshore, each giving 2 pieces of leather. That's also not including the occasional piece of cured leather directly on the coastline.

If anything, with the new update there's quite a bit less leather from beachcombing since the blizzard loot contains a lot less leather (and scrap metal) compared to the baseline, and with loper weather, it overrides baseline loot quite often.

[Agent_Orange]

i hope its a mackinaw jacket and a 30% mre.
ebic loot lmao

[pickle]

Just found the aviator's cap in ML camp office on my Deadman run (prepping for Tales release next week). I've heard the flight jacket can spawn at the airport itself but I'm no where near visiting FA yet.

IMO, "a couple of rare items, but adjusted for Interloper" sounds like they're just going to throw in stuff like mackinaw jacket, ear wrap, etc. into the final bunker. Maybe a bear coat if they're feeling generous. I highly doubt it's going to be any of the non-Interloper stuff (read "adjusted for Interloper"), HL is pretty strict when it comes to keeping Interloper loot to purist low BRA.

Ideally would be something unique so you can't get it any other way, but not so powerful that it's unbalanced. I vote spelunker's lantern.
