Anyone else know if you are still able to loot guns with this mod installed?
I can loot melee weapons, but I havent seen many guns yet after lots of testing. Between loot stages of 50 all the way up to 800, i've tested t3-t5 POIs and all the locked chests, gun safes, weapons bags etc. Only thing I've ever manged to find was a chinalake pump grenade launcher.
To add on- I just have loot abundance cranked to 200% before I see rarely just one gun in high tier POIs in the weapon bag or locked chest. But still, the end chests often still do not contain any guns, either mod pack nor vanilla. Also, I've tested a lot of loot bags as well; loot abundance around 200, yellow blue and red. About 50+ of each, and I haven't seen a single gun get dropped from any bags.
Is this intended?
Weapon drop rates have been lowered compared to previous versions of the game so that is what you are seeing. Izayo added the weapons to the loot tables, but didn't change vanilla drop rates. If I remember correctly, you are more likely to get weapon parts than a complete weapon.
One thing to note is that when you do actually get a weapon drop, there are a lot of weapons for the game to pick from. Izayo has added 15 additional ranged weapons to the game (so far) which is added to the vanilla weapons already in the game (17 not including bows and turrets).
I am in-between playthroughs as I am working on some new mods to add to my next playthrough. I can see about whipping up a small modlet that improves vanilla weapon drops which would also work with Izayo's mod.
