TOOLS OF THE TRADE
FEATURES
- Traders now sell modded guns: beside each standard rifle, its trader offers a Light build (a few upgrades) and a Full build (optics, a suppressor where it fits, better furniture) at higher loyalty levels. No modded gun is sold at level 1.
- A build costs the standard gun plus the parts it adds, less the parts it replaces: no markup, no discount.
- Some top builds open only after a trader's late task: Volkov's V6-scoped KM-74 (Convoy) and suppressed VMR-54 (Decorations), Rook's fully kitted MDI M56A5 (Collector's Item) and Orlov's scoped and suppressed OB-91s (Tracks, Old Growth). The task's rewards show them.
BALANCING
- Wrench's better parts now take loyalty: the Redpoint H-3 holographic sight, the Blackline MC-1 and PRS-3 stocks, the HSG-4 foregrip and the Crown S9 suppressor at level 2; the Zmey PBS-2 and Specter Mini-5 suppressors at level 3; the VectorSight V6 riflescope and the Specter S762-6 suppressor at level 4. The V6 also opens only after his Bench Order: Export Grade.
- Marshal's copies of the H-3, Mini-5, V6 and S762-6 never open earlier than Wrench's.
- Volkov's Kobalt KP-4 scope is loyalty level 3; the KM-74's standard parts (stock, handguard, dust cover, muzzle brake and pistol grip) are level 1 like the rifle.
- Bench Orders can call for parts above loyalty level 1: find them in raids, buy them on the Bazaar or earn Wrench's trust.
BUG FIXES & POLISH
- The bosses go by Foreman, Fixer and Warden on the location screen, in kill lists, death screens and task objectives.
- Flash hiders and suppressors on the K4 now screw onto the barrel's thread instead of floating past its end, and the MDI flash hider shows at full size on a K4.
- Inspecting a trader's weapon offer no longer shows parts from a different offer.
- New KS9 and VMR-54 magazine icons that match the magazines drawn on the guns.
