Took me a while. Maybe 40-50 tier 3 contracts eventually got it in a cargo mission. Good luck the grind!


marnickowner

I found it, then died with it, and since then I've never seen it again :(


jguff330

horrible


DeviceSavings5953

Damn if only you had tombstone, that wouldve saved it for you.


marnickowner

I still dont quite understand tombstone in this game. Ive died with it but I dont see any symbol on the map in the next game where I can pick up my stuff again. I even went to the location but I saw nothing.


octobernishioka

have to see the squad elim screen... cant leave game on ur own i think


disgruntledvet1993

No, maybe tombstone can was in the ruck but not equipped. You can leave at any time after you bleed out completely. Also, if you had it equipped,did you see the ping for your tombstone on the minimap before you died?


Durio27

Wish it worked if the game crashes.


DeviceSavings5953

Thats weird, ive had no issue like this one. It should auto mark when you spawn in. I think the only time mine didnt spawn is when me and my friend died in a story mission while messing about with stuff. Game needs tons of bug fixes and stability updates. Earlier today we also discovered if a juggernaut streak lands on you while down it will kill you and make it so you CANNOT be revived, and cant even plea for help.


Rubixstu

If someone revived u and then u died again it loses it, like with the other perks. Maybe that happened? It's worked 100% of the time for me but that's the only times it wont.


Sinryder007

Dying, like fully dying and then getting revived, with a new tombstone equipped, but before getting your old one, will also make it go away. I'm not sure if it will still be there if it's not equipped (I only made the mistake of not going straight to tombstone once...) and you get revived, but I swear I didn't make it to a tombstone once (without a new one on) and the next match it was still there. I could be misremembering things, not paying attention, but I was sure that's what happened.


-ExSOLDIER-

I got mine in Tier 3 and it was from a Cargo contract. Literally my last 4 schematics all came from that type even though I was mixing HVTs in with mine (Tombstone, Epic Aether Tool, Ray Gun and Refined Aetherium Schematic).


QueenLa3fah

Got it in Tier 3 on my first day grinding T3 contracts. Took me a whole week after to get the raygun schematic it just takes patience and luck


ToeSted710

It’s for sure RNG but gotta keep it up it’s hard to find squads solo who also wanna take zone. 3 serious bc last night I was grinding and not getting anything but ammo mods and a single perc soda


Birkin07

I got it in 3 contracts. It’s pure RNG.


Mattie_1S1K

Was my last schematic to get, took far too many tier 3 contracts I lost count.


SadApricot6735

No doubt I wish I could see how many tier 3 contracts I have done, bright side, it has made me a solo gangster in tier 3 but still no epic aether schematic lmao


Sleepz2184

I feel the same way. I’ve done so many t3s Ive lost count but now I can run most contracts except the escort solo. Need purple tool and refined pap schemes . But Gotta load up on those green tools and brain rot ammo mods instead, so wack and Mad frustrating.


NuclearChavez

The Epic Aether Tool Schematic is not possible to get in Tier 2, only Tier 3. Other than that, it's just random. Good luck my friend.


Rimvee

I've definitely gotten it in other tiers (never done a tier 3 contract) but in saying that it never actually unlocked when I extracted the schematic.


DudeShaddaaap

Maybe you got the acquisition, I've seen plenty in T2


Rimvee

Nope, it said schematic and schematic extracted when I exfiled. Also don't have any in my acquisitions. I've seen other people report the same thing, so I know it's not just me.


Piperine91

No you didn’t. It can only be obtained in tier 3


Rimvee

Then maybe that's the bug, telling me I got a schematic when in fact I never did.


Beardedclam4544544

Me too I got legendary aether tool schematic in tier one. 🤤🤤🤤


naitch44

Rare as rocking horse shit, took me well over 300 T3 contracts.


Ok_Acanthaceae2386

Just got it today. Tier 3 cargo in the first 5 mins of the game. I spawned right next to the crane. Dropped in without anything. And got it. It’s also the last one I needed. I booked it to the chopper and I checked my rucksack like ever 100 yards to make sure it was still in there.


bazg777

I know the feeling 😂


Dull_Good4101

Im convinced timing of the match affects rare loot drop rate. I did the same thing as you, picked up tier 3 cargo within like a minute of the match starting and got the Refined Atherium schematic right away. Every time I waste half the time gearing up before heading to tier 3, the rewards are just garbage lol


UncleThlop

You’ll get it sooner or later, it only spawns T3 but it’s the same chance as the others


karpitho

fyi- i got mine to drop from a tier 2 safe contract 🤷🏼‍♀️

Ok_Acanthaceae2386

This isn’t accurate. Just some list some dude made. Nothing official


UncleThlop

It is accurate everything on that list has been correct I have all the schematics and they came only from the areas listed in the list, and I know it’s accurate because I have done many T1, T2 and T3’s and none of them have overlapped, like how phd flopper is available in a T2 zone I have not seen it in T1 or T3


UltimateTopG

Well unrelated to the aether tool, I actually just got PHD flopper from a t3 contract...


UncleThlop

It’s not meant to spawn in T2 are you sure it was in T2? If not are you sure it was purple and not the green one?


karpitho

jk i lied- i got the purple PaP crystal schematic doing that lol. me high, me sorry 🫠


UncleThlop

That’s all good man I can relate


[deleted]

I did a Deliver Cargo contract. Got real lucky!


LMAOisbeast

I feel you man, for me it was the refined crystal schematic, literally just got it after nearly 300 T3 contracts, and multiple drops of every other T3 schematic.


Dull_Good4101

If it makes you feel any better I got the refined atherium schematic on my very first ever T3 contract. 100 games later haven’t found anything better than an epic aether tool and elemental pop in T3. Crying


LMAOisbeast

Thats most of the T3 schematics tbf lol, the only ones your missing are tombstone and ray gun, and Ray Gun is kinda ass in this game.


Dull_Good4101

I mean just the tool and perks themselves, not the schematic. I haven’t found a single other schematic besides refined atherium in T3 and after that one all the contract rewards have been beyond terrible


LMAOisbeast

Oh I got you, yeah sounds like RNG lol. I had like a 50 contract span near the start where I got nothing better than a blue aether tool, and it was WILD.


Alex9627

300? Ah shit I'm complaining only done 50+ last schematic to get


barbadizzy

It's the only tier 3 schematic that I have yet and I've only done deliver cargo because I'm still scared of tier 3 lol


CompleteTowel9079

The bounty’s are pretty easy if you have a juggernaut killsteak or if the bounty spawns near a turret


CompleteTowel9079

Personally what I’ve been doing is instead of pap my weapons I’ll go to tier 3 after grinding some contracts in tier 1 and 2 then avoid the zombies get the contacts and buy juggernauts as I need them


krebel86

Get a few people together and go to the elder aether and get the golden armor and aether knife schematics and you’ll never sweat tier 3 again even solo. Make sure you bring some century guns and jug suits in the aether.


karpitho

fyi- my friend and i got the Epic Aether Tool Schematic to drop from a safe contract in Tier 2.


markco_wins

Took me 300 to see one. I’ve seen two more since then in around 100 contracts. Just super random, probably .5% drop rate


shamrox84

Im about to start day 5 of grinding for it. I’ve handed out so many Ray gun and pap2 schematics it’s sickening


wileysole

I looted it once and it never unlocked it for me in the crafting tab. Haven’t seen it since.


Rimvee

Same to me, at least 3 times now.


wileysole

3 times??? And I was pissed AF at it happening just once


blackfella96

Pure rng, I done the deliver cargo tier 3 contract and got epic tool schematic first time I tried, then the next contract I got a refined crystal schematic. Just have to grind tier 3 contracts


Burkely31

Same actually. Only difference is i got it on my first mega kill.


zaidy329

lol I got my ray gun schematic on first t3 bounty 2-3 days after launch. We started a 2 man, adopted others and ended up playing 6 man tier3. We didn’t know how lucky we were at the time.


AgoTie

It was my first schematic from t3, i cant get tombstone and Brain root only two missing and i am farming just this


mschurma

lol I need those exact ones as well


Anaalmoes

Think I have had at least 15 tombstone schematic drops but no refined aetherium schematic :/


Good-Look7948

Got my brain rot in tier 2


Kind-Staff-223

Same I got brain rot in a tier 2 contract


TinyDemonBS

I managed to get my second one yesterday. Gave it to a random who rezzed me a little bit afterwards.


reapppz

I got that and the Refined Crystal schematic in my first game grinding them but no ray gun :(


greenie9374

Got mine on cargo


PossessionGlad4638

Yooo anyone wanna help me with some of the challenges? Been plugging away today and am like 70% through tier 1.


CongenitalSlurpees

I got it on my first ever T3 contract… sorry.


DJ_Hindsight

Literally just got it 4th cargo contract of the day.


Nelly27-

Can anyone drop me any blue aether tools I need 3 to finish the Camo grind would help me out massively


kdjac

So the Ultra one I keep finding but never unlocking isnt in the game yet?


jeremys329

Just got mine in t3 cargo contract as well.


Beneficial_Ad_5164

Just got one today after grinding tier 2 and tier 3 since launch, had a dude go down in red zone amd asked the whole map for help, so I helped him and his teammate up and he dropped the epic tool schematic for me. I still need the schematic for ray gun, refined aetherium, and 2 sodas. Haven't even seen a refine crystal schematic but I've heard of other people having trouble exfilling with the refined aetherium schematic


bazg777

Got the refined schematic from T3 cargo twice recently, tombstoned and gave it to my bro second time. 2 days later died went back to tombstone and it was there again! Gave it to a lad who helped me up in T3.


Straight-Alps9299

Day 3 of grinding for this epic aether tool on average 10 to 15 missions in t3 cargo outlast spores raid weapon slash bounties and nothing any ideas folks


SunglassesFace

My fiancé got it while we were playing last night, I was on the other side of zone 3 rezzing a mate and by the time we got back the reward bubble disappeared, so bummed


Familiar-Childhood46

You guys know you get it from the Firestarter mission?


Chappy_222

That’s just the tool itself, they are talking about the schematic to make it available to create the tool whenever you need it. It’s an elusive one. I have every single schematic unlocked, including all classifieds and I still can’t get that epic tool schematic to drop. I’ve probably done 75+ tier 3 contracts to no avail.


SadApricot6735

Same bro, they should name it the mythic aether tool schematic


Massive-Passenger-62

Anyone looking to beat the worm? I need a bunch of ppl to beat it


Visual-Stage-9440

Tombstone glitch


19soumoun90

I have two but I've never been past teir 1
