Smart86 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I just collected every crate from the swamp cave and i didnt get anything good. Ive done it twice now and still nothing good. Has anyone gotten anything good recently, I know there were some changes to the loot table but has anyone gotten anything decent since that change? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dam Son Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Months ago. The key here is to visit that swamp constantly. 80% of the time is junk loot. But, with a pair of mateboosted frogs, it's pretty easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog1986 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Wolves actually suck in the cave now, with no saddle the dragon flies will tear you a new one. The sabers are what we have switched to with a good saddle adn they can take the beating. Also besides frogs, the deer actually do very well in the cave and just decimate dragon flies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smart86 Posted December 23, 2016 Author Share Posted December 23, 2016 I use a frog because it does great knock back and does increased damage to the dragonflies which are everywhere in that cave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VicRattlehed Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Dunno about lately, but me and a friend took our wolves in and ran through it pretty easily. I think we had 4k health and over 400 melee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The frog only has a Journeyman saddle with like 60 Armour and to be honest its mainly the torpor of the frog that i watch out for, not the health. Always good to bring stim berries along or just collect them from the corpse bags from everything you kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomiDarko Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Here's my actual loot from today (2 red, 1 yellow and 2 blue drops - and I threw away a journeyman stone pick, because I got it the second time there)... :-/ http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/181668483563362479/30F5110FC6D21A8E28E1A1938766016E4EF7F954/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallbuilder Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Multiples of Mc/Asc mining helmets/blueprints, multiples Mc/Asc rex blueprints, Mc/Asc flak blueprints/premade, Mc/Asc Assault rifles/blueprints. But mostly garbage. I bred a bear in there so I can very easily run through the cave in a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancelot Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I was just wondering, I'm planning to use a sabers to run the cave but I'm afraid they don't hit high enough for the bugs. Is it a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a problem? Ive never tried using a saber, I used to use a frog with 2.2k hp and 500 dmg. That was until last week, when I raised a bear in there. Can clear it pretty easily, and hits the bugs fine. If you're using a saber, I suggest you pump lots of hp, and maybe stand on the various rocks inside the cave to hit the bugs, walking the the cave walls as much as you can also helps. Will need a good saddle too. The bugs do alot of dmg to my bear, even with a 113 Armour saddle. Eventually it becomes easier because you're able to one-shot them, and they can't touch you.

Sardonyx Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I use a baryonyx and 90% of the time the loot is junk. I have however gotten mastercraft flak and asc fishing rods in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
