ys it's totally different from the shells i've found in special encounters.

For info, it was with a character without Ranger perk but he had Scout. only 3 in LK.
But If Surf Solar say t's totally random, the Ranger perk becomes totally useless then.
Yep, feels good doesn't it?  Wasting a perk...

Is it a possiblity that special encounters are marked with a dead guy just lying in the middle of wasteland and, it didn't say any ''you encounter some brahmin shit pile'', there was just a dead guy lying, I thought there was a player who killed that guy, so I ran away.

I still can be reached over e-mail if you somehow need anything from me. Don't see a reason why you would, but if you do, e-mail remains the safest bet, as I do not visit this forum reliably anymore.

I think that just luck (in-game) and high Outdoorsman helps to find special encounters.

As said, my char who found the shells had only 3 in luck and around 105 in outdoor only. Maybe Scout perk helps event it's not written in the description as Explorer should help.

Any encounter where you find people with high tier weapons such as cmbt shotty, HandK CAWs, and snipers, is a "special" encounter.

No matter how nerfed those encounter's value has become now with the very high deterioration on the weapons...

Gang encounters around New Reno have decent end-tier weapons like shotguns, and for the sniper and CAWs and rippers you gotta look in the caves man... THE CAVES!

These are no special encounters. The ones you mention are just called mountain regions and you find them all over the wasteland.

Those aren't special encounters... Yes there are some special caves with bluesuit body which has tesla armor in inventory...

btw caves was ''fixed'' rippers, snipers and other things from caves have now 60-80% deterioration... and I didn't asked for caves, I asked for special encounters.
