The raider attacks need more love

Post » Mon Feb 15, 2016 11:22 am

non survival mode



Make it 5-6 raiders who attack the vault. How bout that?



Also make them stronger, so they at least are an threat. Agree?



Give them voice commands. Like take some audio clips from fallout 3. Example: When the raiders enter the vault, one shouts "comon boys, fresh meat" / "It's go time" / "Yeah, tear them apart" / "Time to die, hahahaha" Those are actually raider quotes from fallout 3. Mix them up, so its a new one everytime there is an assault.



Make two category raider threats attacks. One is made out of 6 raiders. And the strongest got 6 raiders and 1 raider dog



Increase raider corpse cap size a little bit. The fight needs a little bit more rewarding than what it is now.




Is is my definition of some love for the raiders. What do you think?

I was hoping for more discussions about my suggestions on the raiders. Maybe we can all share ideas if you dont like my suggestions.



Also someone got insights of my last questions?

Yes and their weapons get better also. But they still can't get past the first room with 6 super dwellers I put there for Deathclaws (which aren't appearing anymore for some reason). Does anyone know if radio room with +1 unclicked wasteland dweller prevent DCs from attacking or something?

I've got 198 dwellers, and I still get just 3 raiders bearing sabres and pistols. Please. My level 50 guards didn't even break a sweat.



Someone posted a screen grab where 4 raiders showed up with rocket launchers. If only!

strange. So some people gets attacked by +4 raiders with potential of them using better weapons. And others are still stuck with 3 raiders with default weapons.



This makes me wonder how the raiders were designed for this game. And how it is chosen which vault users gets attacked by what raider profiles.

My vault has 155 people and I am getting groups of 4 raiders now, was 3 until this past week or two. The raiders come sporting a mix of energy weapons and higher damage guns like shotguns. I had one set come, all 4 were brandishing plasma pistols. Doesn't make a difference what they're using though. They hit my kill room with 6 lvl 50 dwellers with all 10 stats and all with gauss rifles, rocket launchers, and plasma rifles and the raiders are dead before they finish running in the room. Of course with the new looting mechanic that means they finish running in, then take all day to stumble to the foreground and actually fall over dead which means my resources are continuing to drain and my dwellers are continuing to be injured well after the raiders are dead while I wait for that stupid animation to play out.

The raider number (and their weapons) is dependent on the average dweller level in your Vault. So if you have a lot of low level dwellers only 3 will appear.



For weapons, there seems to be something like a shared maximum level. The raiders of the same tier can mix weapons but the sum of their level/damage is the same.
