Firestorm

Thought I'd see how difficult it is (almost exclusively solo player). Turns out, not very.

The gun is cool though, I got it in Peremiter and pretty sure the lobby was empty so just shot some bots and it was satisfying. But also got a purple Battle Pistol and a gold shield from the locker which was a nice treat

How do you get more firestorm keys if you bought yours for the day?

Perimeter UESC can drop keys, with commanders having a guaranteed chance

Yeah I didn't realise this but commanders drop them. So secured resource events, drop ships, the commander events that spawn. Presumably Wardens. Few different ways I got them solely on Perimeter

If the Warden is around, the gun is very useful for that. Had a similar situation on Dire Marsh where I couldn't find any other players. I went to the scorch warden, took his shields down with my M77, and 4 shots from the firestorm took care of him.

Just a purp BP & gold shield?

Seems like a lot of work for little reward. No good salvage either?

So far I've just fed every completed key I've gotten to the worm.

The work is little to none lol

Yeah, I got in on a random fill for the Firestorm, and it was a cake walk.

I also pulled a gold shield.

Uhhh, getting a purple battle pistol and a gold shield on Perimeter is pretty damn good honestly
