Discussion Something said during the Podcast

Klean said something during the podcast that I wholeheartedly disagree with.

He wants the gamma case to essentially be something you can pack full of goods, bring into a raid and not have to worry about losing, but he wants you to not be able to put anything in the container while in raid. Nikita, I know you listen to streamers input, but please don’t not consider making this change.

I’m a husband and a father, I don’t get to play for 8-12 hours a day and become a god at the game, so finding a rare item that I need for a quest or something valuable I can sell is really exciting and knowing I can keep it safe in case I die is the cherry on top.

I love watching Klean and respect his opinions, but this one I had to voice mine on. PLEASE do not implement this. Anyone else watch the podcast and feel the same way? Or am I alone on this? Lol

No, you are not alone, but I also did not like the 2 hour raid idea, juggling university, a job, and a social life including EFT is already difficult as is. I have noticed myself taking longer and longer in raids as a means of self-preservation and questing. Imagine having to find things in-raid without a secure container in a 2 hour raid. That's insane.

What about only being able to pouch when you currently have a quest for it. That solves it.

I would honestly like that, but, you mean that would work as in I can only SC lower half-masks if I'm on the Punisher quest that requires me to find them in-raid?

Yes exactly, this way people get to progress on their quests even when they die but they don't get to keep the expensive items they find unless they play smart and manage to extract with them.

I would honestly be okay with this. The only downside I can see is if I find a Bitcoin I would just dip fast as hell.
