Reading through the rest of the patch notes will show that there’s also been some other changes made where attachments were merged together, so to compensate for those new gaps in the loot, the notes said spawn rates of other items have been buffed evenly to give players more overall loot across all of the game’s maps.
“Due to item changes this patch, including merging some attachments together, there is naturally a gap left in spawns which needs to be filled with other items,” the notes explained. “Because of this, we have increased the spawn rate of other items evenly. This will also result in a small increase in spawns of high priority items such as ARs, meds etc. This also means the overall loot for other maps has also increased slightly, although no changes have been made to individual item spawn ratios on other maps.”
PUBG’s new update with the loot balance changes is now live.
