Supply Drops (Blue, Purple, Yellow, and maybe even Red)

[Euzio]

Could the devs look into doing something bout 90% of the loot cache in these supply drops being either medium crop plot blueprints or water jar blue prints... The supposed loot list for them is supposed to be pretty extensive yet all I'm mostly seeing is those 2 blue prints, or often a metal sign one in there.... I've lost count of the number of these coloured supply drops I've looted and so far, only twice have I gotten something that is remotely close to useful (a ramshackle metal hatchet blueprint and a ramshackle carno saddle)

At this point, it seems the white/prismatic and green supply drops are the more useful ones since they drop stuff we can use. Especially the green one which does drop wooden structures which are probably the most useful of the lot.

Given up on drops, just focusing on Alphas now. Got a few Mastercraft tools from some high level raptors tonight.

I used to go after greens to get a nice bundle of stone or a decent amount of narcotics/tranqs.

Yeah. The green supply drops are probably the best right now. They at leasts drop stuff that is useful more often. Narcs, Arrows, Stone, Tranqs, Wooden Structures. All these are something we can use even at the late game... Much better than the gazillion medium crop plot and water jar blue prints...

I'm 1 lvl away from being able to craft my Rex saddle. Once that's done... I'm going to go hunting for Alphas for any of the better stuff. My sole A-Raptor kill has already given me a ramshackle pickaxe and ramshackle hatchet.

As an addition to the above, let server admins control the loot table of the different drops.

I find blue drops to be the most useles ones. At least with the yellow, purple and red I occasionally get something useful. My guess is the blue would be where some currently non-existant blueprints would be, like the stone building ones.

This would definitely be great. I run my own server and would dearly love to be able to alter the supply drop content.

And yup. Of all the supply drops, blue has to be the most useless...

I get mostly compass and medium crop plot blueprints. I actually got excited yesterday when I got mortar & pestle, paintbrush, and something else from a green one. Sure, I didn't need any of those, but at least it wasn't a single duplicate blueprint.

Open a red cache to find a medium crop blueprint.
Open another red to find a metal sign blueprint.
It's Destiny all over again.

The Metal Sign is still far better than the 145th compass blueprint, water jar blueprint, or grenade blueprint.

I can never find red supply drops anymore (only seen 1 when I was lvl 40+ or 50+),
Yellow drops have compass, compass or silencer attachments.
And those metal signs and medium crops drop like no tomorrow.

In fairness we got a Journeyman Long Rifle BP from a Red drop I think. I guess things like that SHOULD be rare though.

[Jerboia]

Yellows seem to be the worst for me. Blue, Purple, and Reds have always been amazing. plenty of ramshackle tools and a Journeyman pike from blues, ramshackle longneck from a purple, and a journeyman rocket launcher BP from a red.

[Hance Olo]

I was thinking the same i see crop plot water bottle and compass blueprints non-stop had a red beacon with two medium crop plots the other day

[szalkerous]

Glad to see everyone else is as disgusted about supply drops as I am.

Do you play on an un-official? If not you are the luckiest person on earth and should go buy loto tickets right now.
