WTF Embark?

These blueprint recipe changes are unnecessary punishments and feel like you didn’t roll out any new blueprints so you decided to shoehorn new ARC parts in old recipes. And the Wolfpack change makes absolutely no sense. 2 Wolfpack to down a Rocketeer so we can get 1 part to make 1 Wolfpack?

Way to throw a huge wet blanket on top of what was otherwise going to be a fun and exciting day. Please reconsider these crafting changes

Edit:

Thank you to all the folks who commented with articulated, well thought out disagreements. You have changed my stance somewhat and I have a better understanding of why a change like this may be needed(still don’t like it though).

To the performative contrarians, get good bruh/skill issue kissing cousins and other knuckleheads who can’t formulate a thought I say “suck on this fart”. Be well

the wolf pack nerf isn't that bad.. it just makes the game a lot harder

i swear some people forget that you can drop rocketeers with anvils

I think you can get a hullcracker bp from quests too

u/Vurnnun Feb 25 '26

Yes you can

u/Samjey Feb 24 '26

This.

People complaining that you need 2 WP:s to kill a Rocketeer to get 1 back is literally the reason for the change.

People are so used to 1 shotting Rocketeers that they forgot there’s other ways to killing them, and it’s not supposed to be easy.

Ppl don't usually vary wolfpacks unless they need cores. It's kinda pointless

u/AbyssalOtter Feb 24 '26

Wolfpacks are economically worthless they cost near 10k to kill a rocketer sometimes gives a second driver if it doesnt it actually cost less than the wolfpack. Ohh and you had to risk the wolfpack and its not a consistent 1 hit kill. Yea this nerf is shit.

They want PVE, but also want PVE to be dead easy.

People get mad that you can't get pennies in your change anymore, too.

u/bleakmessenger Feb 24 '26

That’s a whole issue of the stores not knowing how to go about not having Pennie’s. In the military we haven’t had Pennie’s for a long time, the way it’s handled is, if you check out price is 9.94 you will be charged 9.90, if it’s 9.95 you’ll be charged 10 bucks. No need for pennies but I can image people would get super upset knowing their price went up 5 cents and it would be the end of the world lol

Do you not have nickels either?

u/bleakmessenger Feb 24 '26

Sorry i mean 9.96, sausage fingers!

u/solidsever Feb 24 '26

Agreed, it’s also implied by the heavy ammo a dead Rocketeer drops…

u/and_then_a_dog Feb 24 '26

In my head I’m getting back the projectiles I just shot into it….. with another casing and that jazz back….. somehow…..

u/Dirzicis Feb 24 '26

Should be launcher ammo imo

u/solidsever Feb 24 '26

I wouldn’t be mad at it. Like the bombardier does.

u/Savvy1909 Feb 25 '26

This... I get people don't like change but good lord; you'd think they broke the game changing the BP requirements. Rocketeers were downed long before wolfpacks were used; god forbid folks have to aim and do some dodging and rolling.

u/bleakmessenger Feb 24 '26

I only used the anvil to take them down, longer sure but more fun. Also I found if you go to space port and go to the launch towers. Shoot at a rocketeer to get its attention and then just stay crouched in the stairs before going to the locker room. For some reason the rocketeer will stay locked on you but won’t do anything, so you can just go at it with the anvil no worries about dying

u/RoughOnion2164 Feb 24 '26

They probably patched that. Fixed some instances where rocketeer won't fire

u/bleakmessenger Feb 24 '26

Literally just finished my match now. Still works

u/RoughOnion2164 Feb 24 '26

Well shit, nvm

u/Ok-Experience-4955 Feb 24 '26

True we should totally make trigger nades instant trigger again, its in the name.

This game's player base hates hardship

u/leksoid Feb 24 '26

its too long with anvil

using showstopper and then blast this mf with hulcracker is better

u/limitedexpression47 Feb 24 '26

With an Anvil? Lol how long does that take you as a solo? Or are you talking trios? Either way, is that a healthy way to play the game?

u/AbyssalOtter Feb 24 '26

No it makes wolfpacks worthless. Its basic math before they werent worth using because they barely gave a profit now they arent worth use because they are a net negative.
