This also makes sniping a damn lucrative business. I pull out my super. Set the maximum rendering distance. Shoot > hide > wait > repeat. Looking at the corpses, they also have a lot of armor. Squads with exoskeletons are my favorite.

There was previously a bug that allowed you to become a real oligarch in no time. The glitch has now been fixed.

The rarity of the looters also makes many people smile cynically. Because often what is available to loot is not necessarily useful and is only suitable for resale.
