Flickering Flames Winter Event | ARC Raiders
The question now is where the drop rates currently sit. While scaled back, the “grind” should still feel less punishing than the game’s earlier iterations. This is a welcome change for players struggling with RNG or those with limited playtime who found legendary items nearly impossible to obtain.
Player reactions have been a blend of lighthearted disappointment and understanding. “Even with the rates being absurdly high, I still haven’t found a Tempest blueprint despite four weeks of night raids,” one Reddit user remarked. Another fan aptly noted, “We all knew it was too good to be true!”
The calibration is particularly vital for the “Expedition” feature, which allows veteran Raiders to reset their progress and rebuild their character. Maintaining a satisfying pace for gear acquisition is essential for those exploring new playstyles or seeking rewards through multiple playthroughs.
Embark is clearly walking a tightrope between making loot feel rewarding without stripping away the challenge. Whether they have hit the perfect balance remains to be seen, but the message is clear: if you’re hunting for legendary blueprints, the window of “easy mode” has closed, but the current rates are still in your favor compared to the past.
