Nah, uncommons are the limiting factor.
I upgraded (act 1) the medkits and throwing knifes fully. You need for level 9 to 10, 100 uncommon trophies alone. Just to upgrade one BP to level 10, u need 300 uncommon and only 50 rare and about 10 unique. (just some numbers to show ratio)

Rare is tbh the easiest to farm, since both "tiers" of zombies drop them (prime example virals and volatiles).

Easiest way to farm in the game: Any settlement with UV light, low level (any story area and before epilogue) and lot of time. And it's easy, u go up to chase level 2/4 for uncommon and some rare, and from wave 3/4 onwards you get unique and on 4/4 u get only unique (with always some chance of rare)

But yea, this whole farming process is damn tedious and always grab the loot after a chase ends.
I wish we could either buy trophies or auto-loot.

i love molotov and i upgrade it same goes for the picklock stuff :P

Upgraded molotovs and throwing knives are like "combat over" buttons. Same with the shotgun. Part of why I feel like an invincible machine (unless volatiles show up) is precisely because if I do not feel like fighting something I just either throw a few of my upgraded molotovs into a room and do something else or whip some knives at it from afar. Never had a bolter get away yet! Haha.

The only thing i'm focusing on upgrading is the mod that reduces weapon wear, fully upgraded it reduces wear by 100% iirc

only becomes useful when you hit max level and get a good weapon though

They need to remove trophies tbh, grinding in a single player game its just lazy padding, if i want to grind il go play a mmo thank you very much, on top of the bugs and other crap this is to much

what trophies? the weapon trophies? you only need one and that's korek

[Hemradge]

Oh yeah I've been upgrading molotovs and lockpicks weapon mods and stuff and it hasn't been too terrible honestly. The best way that works for me to get a lot of uncommon trophies fast is to go into dark stores/zones during the day and fighting my way through everything there. Most of all the infected in them drop a trophy, so it just depends on how much I feel like doing combat if I wanna grind to get 100+ for the things I want to fully upgrade.

I see your point, but clearly some people are not even upgrading things at all, so it is very much an optional thing. I am the kind of person who has a hard time walking by zombies without killing them which is part of why I am always overflowing with crap to use for upgrades anyway

Doesn't that one not actually reduce wear and tear by 100%?

Zombie trophies. You need those to upgrade things like craftable consumables, weapon modules, etc.

The issue is that you need so MANY of them that you pretty much MUST farm for them, Uncommon trophies in particular.

oh the crafting materials, okay
