Airdrops not respawning loot.

[Winchester]

I've been doing the same routine for farming airdrops to get the max level 9 artifact gear and suddenly the airdrops just stopped respawning.

Yeah they kind of did people dirty on this update.
They said nothing about the nerfs and then made the savegame incompatible to the previous version.
What they did fix was not really fixed as i finished the double time quest for the 26th time.

Took away my charm, took my broom, took my grapple... gave me nothing back but some sounds and gore... Oh and all zombies and enemies can be autoleveled to me, yet the weapons i find get stuck at lv 6 it seems :/
Seems pretty easy to make the loot dropped match my level at least.
Pretty pissed i paid 99 bucks for this... Lesson learned about the developer i guess.

I have a whole inventory stash of farmed weapons from airdrops why didn't you do that?

I learned very late that the 3 drops near the bridge always give lv 9 gear and I ran it a couple of times but 2 days later it already got patched. I was flying around on my broom because someone said those boxes only drop lv 9 melee stuff, I needed the orange random encounters during night to get a lv 9 bow so I spent most of my time doing that.

I had no idea they would patch the fun things out of the game. I wonder if I can get a portion of my money back, make it so I only ever had the base game bought.
Especially since the first gear DLC are not even leveled to my char.

Everything is such a clusterflup I never saw coming, the dev's build up such a good rep in my books from DL1 I never saw this coming. The broom just fitted as a quirky thing just like my space gun from DL1.

You were trying to get the level 9 yardstick bow PRIOR to this recent update?? If that's the case, you were wasting your time. The only way to of received that level 9 bow was either by duping or modding it into the game prior to this update. The weapon selection at vendors is much better now. I'm hoping it's possible to legitimately get the level 9 bow from a vendor as I just purchased the level 8 bow the other day.

I was working on it :( Didn't have much time since I could only do that few times after I came back from work then suddenly... no respawn :(

I was farming the gear itself, gloves, chest etc... for each set

So is there any way / do you know any way for me to get level 9 gear (Armor specifically) right now? I don't mind adding mods / cheating if it's an option.

It was inevitable that they would nerf those air drops. That's why I'm glad I farmed it while it was good cause I knew that day would come probably sooner than later. I just hope they add some better ways to get max lvl gear cause right now the only other way to do it even semi-reliably is farming legendary encounters but its still not that great.

So there is a way.... What are legendary encounters? and if I may ask since you farmed the airdrops you mind adding me and duping some armor pieces for me?

Its the random encounters you get only after completing the story. Instead of the blue icons that pop up they'll be a light red/salmon color. Doing those will drop max lvl gear, or it might scale to your current level I'm not 100% sure on that part.

I'm level 9, so I guess it's the story thing but it would be nice to enjoy max level gear before the game is done....
