Binoculars from tier 3 loot crate

Hey I just watched a video where someone got electronic binoculars from a tier 3 lootcrate! I didn't know they added it into genesis, can't find it in the engrams so it must be only available from the loot crates. It's weird though because I haven't seen anyone talking about it so maybe it was unintended?

No not modded, its a wierd tek version of binoculars, there is no engram it comes from the lootcrates after the last patch they put in to make them better which just made them give wierd items instead

Im assuming you watched the Syntac video and yes that is completely possible in vanilla. A friend of mine got one from a tier 2 box on official, no joke.

Yep. Not impressed. 

Can't use HLNA scan through them nor is the distance that much better than a spyglass. Oh and can't use it from back of dino's like a spyglass (well at least a Rex and Basil).

As far as I observed, the item was added back in 309.4 next to Carnivorous Plant, both of which were scrapped at some point (e.g. Binoculars were an unreleased SE item, and Carnivorous Plant seems to be an early version of X/Y/Z species). The latter also was mostly non-functional, but it's been removed since. Binos are still there, in their unchanged form when compared to the DevKit.

I have gotten multiple elec binoculars through tier 3 loot-crates on an official gen server.  They are pretty cool - not game changing, but nice to have.

 

Note: they seem to disappear from your inventory when you transfer to a different server.

Yep, they're not loaded anywhere other than Genesis by default.
