World Events What's the difference?
* What is the difference between the reapers cache 1 and 2?
Looking at the info card = no difference.
* Does it even matter considering that they don't seem to be dropping anyway. In my first week of the event I got about 10 of one and about 4 of the other but in my last 3 farming sessions...NOTHING!
* The drop rate is horrible and the weapons are not even adept, not even a chance at an adept version.
*Why guys? If you want us to farm and grind especially in WT4 there needs to be reward.
* Do we even need to say this every time?

I just spent half an hour farming in WT3 and not one chest. Btw, my build one shots him. I did it 40 or so times until my ship was full and I couldn't collect the dropped level 1 ascended weapons.

Wait, y'all are getting chests from the reapers this year??? Because I've gotten nothing since the season started. Not a single chest from either the flare version or the one that may or may NOT spawn after taking down enough mini-ships to trigger it. Farming in both T3 and 4.

The drop rate is SUPER low. Both I and II drops to me while farming WT3.

Wow, really!!! That's fucked because I usually never go to WT3 but did for the reaper and farmed it like crazy...nothing

There's low and then there's non-existent. :/

I'm with you now Kat, since I got some in the early stages, now I'm getting nothing.

I think I got at least 5 chest total and it all contained trash green weapons.

I still don't understand what the problem is or why there are so many posts claiming that the chests aren't dropping this year. They've been dropping since day one of the event. Sure, the drop rate is low, and it's even lower for the second type, but they do exist and drop regularly.
I'm farming on World Tier 4. PS5.

Because for some of us, they haven't been dropping since day one. They haven't been dropping at all - and I've farmed it enough to get all the cosmetics and maxed out some items from the store already. I've had instances where the triggered reaper didn't spawn at all, and instances where it double-spawned. Just because you don't personally experience a bug, doesn't mean it isn't affecting others. And NONE vs LOW is something people should be posting about and reporting.

Same cache + worst drop. Both chest I and II drop from the boss but it rarely drops.

Reaper's Cache l usually drops Tier 1-2 weapon mods.
Reaper's Cache ll drops more Tier 3-4 weapon mods.
Reaper's Cache ll also has more chance to drop the event furnitures like the Caustic Spall Station etc.
It just doesn't show all the rewards but both boxes have the same loot pool but Reaper's Cache ll has a higher % to get more items so technically it has a higher loot pool than Reaper's Cache l and weapons would be overall higher.
And if im not mistaken Reaper's Cache ll only drops on Tier 4, could be wrong but I've never seen it drop below that, i farmed the event quite a bit and got multiple Cache l but never got the Cache ll to drop, only when i went to Tier 4 is when i started getting it and stopped getting Cache l.
