5.3.6 changed to spawn only Small Energy Refills...?

LilMaddogHT

@Kabam Miike as you may know, there are various maps in the story content and variants that have more 'frequent' respawn rates of certain items such as revives and energy refills. One of these maps is 5.3.6. In the past, it has often spawned full energy refills with an occasional revive. Two days ago, I was running this map and found that instead of full energy refills on the top 2 paths, it has the small refills spawning instead. I've run this map a number of times in the past (more than I'd like to admit) and it has never spawned small refills on these paths, but full. Was this change intentional to remove the full refills for being an option on this map (possibly to prevent the use in Battlegrounds)?

Would love some additional information on this and thank you.

Delete your post and continue on your way… nothing to see here.



Just keep running it buddy, its not a goldmine… but they will reappear.

They're generated by RNG.

Random and patience have nothing to do with this... 5.3.6 has seemed to certainly been changed. Maps do spawn certain items on certain paths on a more regular basis... Whether they show up or not is one thing - that's the RNG. I'm well aware to not expect something 100% of the time. But I have ran the 5.3.6 map for well over 2 years (I'm guessing some 2000 - 3000 completions of that map over that time, maybe more) and NEVER once has it spawned a small energy refill on the top 2 paths. Now, the top 2 paths are spawning only small refills so to say nothing has changed and it is just RNG, is extremely suspcious.

Top 2 paths: Full Refills
Side 2 paths: Small Refills
Bottom path: Revives

This has been reported in another line chat as well.

So because they aren't spawning so you can farm them, when we know they generate through RNG, you've ascertained that they changed it. I see.

Yeah I’m also seeing this. Been farming this quest in the later half of months for nigh on a year for this point, never seen a small energy refills here before

Just did 7 runs and did not see any but every single time there were small refills on the paths that used to have the big ones and that never used to happen

Something is up, I’ve run this quest so many times I know it like the back of my hand. I know what I’m talking about.

Right, so people just jump to the conclusion that they changed it. Gotcha.

Please don’t let incorrect people get in the way of actually getting feedback on this.

There are reports from multiple people that one of the most predictable ways to store/farm energy refills has been changed. Kam has a whole video on this.

I saw @Kabam Miike comment on another thread saying that ROL was not changed. Can we get the same attention to this please?

No one other than kabam can change how anything works so I’m gonna have to answer yes I guess I’m jumping to that conclusion

.....or.....you could inquire about it and wait for a response instead of claiming silent nerf. Just a thought.

a claim isn't an end-all-be-all. a claim is "i think this happened." so far, nothing has been given to disprove this claim. so yes, i'll sit and wait for a response, but the claim is completely viable

There are assumptions being made. I'm saying wait for actual information.

LilMaddogHT

The only assumption I think we will make is someone looking for enough comments (regardless of how helpful/thoughtful/useful.. or NOT) to get 6 stars on the forum profile.

I’ve run it 6-7 times in the past 24 hours and I got a revive or full energy refil everytime. It’s rng, relax and keep running it

sorry but how did u managed to run 6-7 times in 24h when 1 run cost ~90 energy? I mean come on, what are u doing here is low....

Scopeotoe987

Please keep act 3 the same…

Some changes have been made 100%, because I was farming these full energy refills for past year and a half and I have never seen small energy refill spawning on the Top Left/Right paths. But now I have done 4 runs (even spent full refill to check if im not getting rly unlucky) and only small refills are spawning now where full ones once was. And that just a fact that something has been done, was it intentional or a "bug", Kabam should give us straight answer.

QuikPik

People should refrain from commenting on threads they know nothing about.

I've been running this quest for the past 3 years whenever I have energy refills expiring or I have extra energy at the end of the month. I just checked right now and indeed there was one small energy refill on the right path. Typically these paths will have either 0, 1 , 2 full energy refills on the two paths. Never have I ever seen a small refill until today.

GroundedWisdom

People can take jabs at me all they want, but when the implication is made they may have changed it because of Battlegrounds, I'm going to point out it's not helping anything to jump to conclusions. A simple request to look into it would likely suffice.

Soloist

long time player (long time 5.3.6 energy farmer), came here to see if its a bug, but i guess its not, just another way kabam attempting to boost their sales, daily energy deals are coming boys!

Oops. I’ll see myself out… thought we were talking about the other farm…I don’t farm act 5

There should be a 'No GroundedWisdom' option when you create a post.

fun fact, the disagrees on some of his comments were actually removed

AverageDesi

Haven't run it for some time but the top paths have an almost 100% spawn rate for full refills

PoolBoyRoy

I noticed this today after using 4 energy refills on this quest and finding no revives or energy refills at all, In the past have consistently got 1-2 refills or a revive every time. Glad to see I’m not just getting terrible luck, if there was a change I feel like we should have been told so I didn’t have to waste my 4 energy refills to figure it out.

Klipp

Man I should’ve came here first, I thought I was going crazy. I like others would state I have done this chapter more than I’d like to admit and know this chapter like the back of my hand. NEVER has low energy showed in the rulk path or easy or mystic paths, but now the only refills that populate on easy and mystic are lower refills when it used to be full energy refills. Anyone saying rng is wrong this is not rng, there was a change made to this chapter and I’m not happy about it, I used to farm so I could complete monthly content in 1 week so then I could focus my time on the story mode. Now that I can’t do that I will not have the energy in a month to play this game like I used to.
