Re: NPC equipment

so, you want them to be harder to kill?

URGH, READ.

The observers drop T2-T3 gear but when you scan them they have T1 fitted. That doesn't make sense.
What he's saying is making NPC equipment scan show what they really have fitted.

I agree that tiered  modules should be chosen on spawn rather than on death. smile

Re: NPC equipment

actually, i want kinda both...

1. npcs beeing equipped with stuff they drop
2. npcs not having artifical high "extension multiplicators"

Observers are having stats that a player can never archieve, even with maxed out extensions, and not with the equipment they show when you scan them.

but there is no counterpart - there are no npcs around that have artifical lower stats then player, just less of their slot filled (zero, 1rst and 2nd star)

but thats another topic...

this time its: give higher tier npcs higher tier equip. There is no need for "observers" if you equip a 4th star mesmer with t3 equip...

Re: NPC equipment

So they have T1 gear and drop tiered stuff, you want to be able to scan them so you know what you're getting as loot, maybe its an intended mechanic so you don't know what they drop.

Anyways they are in beta now, does anybody go there for PVE?

Re: NPC equipment

This would be because what they drop isn't determined until you kill them.. Making it so a scan shows what they have would actually be a lot more complex than you think, for very little gain.
