Event anomalys should turn secured/finished

Post by Shadowflame909 » #638302

Players will tell you that a lot of stuff isn't seen anymore because of how lame and hard it is to get secured anomalies.

Considering anomaly events just give you anomalies that you can now get roundstart/buy at cargo. I think it'd be better if by neutralizing them, they became their secured form. So you dont have to neutralize it then blow it up in toxins, when you could have blown up one from roundstart and ignore the random event.

Mainly because I want to see some anomaly-gated round end content again.

It's not gonna happen.
The point of those anomalys is giving us a finite source of semi rare stuff to tie stronger gear around.
Making them infinite defeats that point

Reading comprehension off the charts.

They want it to be a one step process, not two. If you manage to get the event spawn object, then you don't have to go to toxins because you already did the "science" of stopping the anomaly.
If you are using a roundstart core/one from cargo, you have to do toxins science.

That's what I mean nabski, we have a hard limit on the amount you can produce through science, that's the reason raw annoms exist, to act as a hard limit to how much rare gear can exist in the round.
Bypassing that process and just having them drop form events fully formed bypasses that limit, which is bad.

? Doesn't this already happen with the Anomaly Neutralizer item, or did I not look closely enough the last time I used one?

Pretty sure neutralizing event anomalies gives a refined, not raw, anomaly core. That's sort of a good thing because otherwise no one is going to bother running into a burning room to neutralize a pyro core and whatnot.
