I'm so ready for this. I think the snow event is coming around Dec 22?

Cannot wait to hear snow crunching audio from Embark. Their sound design has been some of the best I've played in a game

I'm wondering what different mechanics they will add for the snow. Maybe the hatches and elevators would be frozen shut and need to be thawed with fire based items or something. Maybe also some whiteout conditions at times or footprints to track in the snow?

If you're not watching BurntPeanut play ARC, then you're missing a little slice of life.

I'm nearing level 71 and maybe have 25 blueprints to my name. I'm in the final stage, but I decided to forgo the expedition this time. I don't have nearly enough coin - and I think 5MM coin gets you 5 extra skill points for your next raider. Still feel like there are a ton of things I haven't done on each map + blueprints that I'm still going to keep grinding

I learned of AR because of Peanut. Dude is entertaining as hell.

The cold snap loot is pretty awesome. I just found four weapon attachment blueprints on my first solo run on spaceport.

Cold snap map event. I don't think you can have a cold snap and night raid active at the same time.

Love the cold snap event but I haven't found ANY blueprints yet during it lol

I've run several as well and haven't found anything of value. Cool added mechanic, though.

Low-level here - 13. I'd like to tag along, *esp* on a big-ARC/Matriarch runs. I won't yak and ask questions, and about all I can contribute are eyes (pinging) and carrying defibs. drjava#7516

You can usually get lucky in solos and a group will be stacking the matriarch and you can join in and get whatever goop you can. That's how I have the two queen reactors I have.

Just tried this (enabling "Fill") on regular Dam map - no Matriarch. Teamed w/2 brothers that had a *lot* to say about everything. Even tho I didn't understand some of it - it was just like the scene in Airplane - they were a hoot to listen to. It was a good team, and so a good time. I'll do this more!

So be sure to look for different Map modifiers (cold snap event, matriarch, harvester, night raid, etc.) only a map with either the harvester or matriarch will have her

I just did the dam on cold snap and found 4 more weapon attachment blueprints in two runs. I was hitting up the Pale Apartments and Ruby Residence. Those buildings are goldmines.

Latest patch today looks like they tweaked blueprint drops down slightly, but still better than before!

Haven't only gotten to play a couple times this week, hoping to bump into yall topside!

Anyone manage to find the SECRET GUITAR?!

Agree. Night raid + residential have been excellent to me in the past for blueprint goopage

At times, I think he may be capped out due to perverse language but he is always adding subs. People watch his stream on Friday night like TV.

10 blueprints in about 3 hours of play since the cold snap update. Most have actually come on night raids at Dam. Most in the scrapyard and close to the extraction at the power generation complex in cars and busses.

Wow I have never found blueprints in those places. It always seems to be residential areas for me.

Yup Pale Apartments and Ruby Residence for me. I have found some in random crates I have to pry open but mostly in those residential areas

Ok, that worked. Got several BPs there and in the power generation complex.

Also, the games (as someone who doesn't PvP much) have been really chill (pun intended) lately for the most part. Lots of funny interactions and cooperating to take down ARC. There might be something to the behavior based matchmaking talk.
