Loot changes in 1.0.6 update

A new update for The Pre-Sequel was released today (May 19th) and while looking through the patch notes on Steam, I noticed some interesting things as far as the Claptrap dlc is concerned:

[Claptastic Voyage] Denial Subroutine boss fight is now runnable without having to quit/reload and now has special loot
[Claptastic Voyage] Added Grinder recipes for Claptastic Voyage items
[Claptastic Voyage] Updated Loot bug drop pool

I dont know what this means as far as unobtainables go (Im hoping the Loot Bug/Denial Subroutine drops the Machine or Lady Fist, that would be wonderful) so hopefully we can figure all that out soon.

Perhaps this also means that we wont have to put in Claptastic legendaries to recieve them reliably. All in all, Im looking forward to farming, if I find anything cool Ill be sure to post it here.

All I’ve seen from Loot Bugs so far are orange-rarity skins.

Denial continues to drop a glitch weapon reliably. I haven’t noticed anything else falling, but I only have three kills on the new patch so far.

Yeah, thats what Ive found aswell, got the “Its Party Time” skin for Dopplejack from loot bugs so far. Ive only killed the Denial Subroutine twice, so I doubt thats enough samle size, so Ill just keep at it.

Edit: about 30 kills later, the only thing I can say is that random is random and Im unlucky, if he has been delegated to drop uniques/dlc legendaries. The Denial Subroutine did tend to drop two glitch weapons at times, so perhaps that is the change? If anyone has consistently farmed him and can give input, that’d be great.

just had a loot bug drop a legendary party time doppleganger skin!

Theres this one to.
Opha Superior is now a runnable boss.

Does that enemy have a unique drop? If not maybe now it does.

I was wondering this myself… don’t know if it’s worth the try lol

Grinder recipes for Claptastic Voyage items?
Does that mean i can grind 3 glitch pistols and be guaraneed a glitch pistol, rahter than just a random glitch gun? Come to Papa, Pepperbox!

regarding those loot changes, i’d like to know more as well.

I was curious as well. I want to say this is the case. You should still be able to grind 3 random glitch guns just like you can 3 random purples.

so, nobody any luck with Denial Subroutine drops?

and with Opha Superior drops? where does Opha Superior actually spawn?

He should spawn in one of the outer perimeter areas of Eleseer but I haven’t run it yet.

it’s a guaranteed glitch gun drop(random gun type) and it can supposedly drop a legendary, but from all my readings from other forums that is very, very, very rare.

I’m not sure about the Opha, I think it’s just a moonstone drop and maybe a blue weapon drop.

Since most bosses are now farmable, maybe we should start a farming thread like in BL2, listing who dropped what for you and compiling the results to get a sens of assigned drops that we don’t know.

I found this earlier today:

Yeah, but the people maintaining the wiki are like us: they just test things. they don,t have privileged information. And the list is missing a lot of sources :smile:
Maybe it’s worth farming a few named enemies that don,t have a drop assigned according to this list and try to find one.

If it doesn’t have a specific drop boss name/location, then the only way to get it is through the grinder. From my experiences, this information is pretty accurate.

Don,t forget that in the latest patch there were new loot assigned to some bosses (Like Opah Superior and Denial Subroutine) they may have done so with other bosses that simply didn’t respawn before. no one really bothered to test some of those extensively yet.

very true. off topic, real quick. where are the dummy range location?

Deck 13, just follow the first corridor you see to the end instead of going up to deck 13 1/2

nice!
