[FSF] Better Exploration Loot

While the vanilla loot tables for exploration locations provide some decent items a lot of the time you'll question if it was really worth the time and effort you spent. This mod revamps the loot tables increasing the rewards, adding new items and adding in rare spawns. The intention is that when you walk away you'll feel the trip was worth it even if Randy curses you you with bad RNG. Lucky people might find quest grade loot, legendary items, high end bionics, archotech Items and all manner of things.

This mod includes loot rebalancing for the Core game and all its DLCs. However, there are no requirements everything is loaded as required so you only need to add it to your mod list.


The loot table for Ancient Dangers has been changed so it no longer works off Maker sum and instead uses the more consistent Random Option. The primary loot of Ancient Dangers has been kept intact but a lot of new things have been added. They should provide a larger variety of interesting rewards.

Ancient Dangers have also been patched to randomly spawn on Encounter Maps which are from Camps or Caravan Incidents. In Vanilla you can only encounter them on tiles you Settle or land on with a Gravship


The mapgen loot table used for storage areas such as Bandit Camps has been revamped. Ordinarily this loot table is spawned using threat points and market value with a maximum value of $300 per item. It then spawns a bunch of items that fit within those settings. This mod revamps the loot table removing the threat points and market value. Instead it provides a small high quality reward from a more varied reward pool.

Note: The available loot is locked to the tech level of the defending faction. If you want higher tech items you need to attack higher tech factions. Also higher tech factions can provide much more expensive loot as high tech items are worth significantly more.


Encounter Maps have been patched so they can spawn resources. These maps are spawned from Camps or Caravan Incidents. In Vanilla these maps are barren but you can get around that by Settling on a tile or landing on it with a Gravship


There's three types of containers for Ancient Complexes The Standard Crate, The Better Crate which has improved quantity and higher odds on better loot and the Security Crate. The first two provide everything but with low odds for things like Techprints, Bionics, Neurotrainers, Psylinks, Psytrainers, Quest Loot and Empire Loot. The Security Crates are rare finds so all the cheap generic stuff has been removed leaving only the good loot. If you open a Security Crate you should get something rare or valuable.


The worksites that can spawn around the world have had new resources added to their selection pool based on the Deep Drill commonality. So its now possible to find worksites mining up Jade, Plasteel or Uranium.


The goal of each box has been kept in mind while adding loot and weighting the odds. Gray Boxes come in Low Value and High Value. The Low Value box has high odds of trash loot with a large spread of valuables with lower odds. The High Value box has great loot but has a bit of a slant towards the original theme of Books, Skulls, Organs (newly added), Serums and Shards. The Flesh Sack has great loot with a slant towards the original theme of Armour, Weapons, Special Artefacts and Bionics.


There's many different loot crates in Odyssey all tuned with different intentions and found in different zones. The original intentions have been largely preserved while adding a large swath of new loot and rare finds. The loot for Abandoned Colonies has been overhauled giving them the same kind of loot as Bandit Camps but with half the value. Not much loot will be found but what you find will be worth the trip.


So what exactly does this mod add? This mod adds a large amount of loot drops covering a huge assortment of things. It even includes stuff from mods when those mods are active.
