BioWare has quickly patched out a loot farm players recently discovered in Anthem.
As more and more Anthem players with early access start finishing the main campaign and getting into the endgame, many found that it can be incredibly difficult to get high-level gear.
If you’re unfamiliar, Anthem’s endgame mainly consists of running the same three Strongholds (dungeons), and picking up Legendary Contracts. The best way to get these activities to drop Masterwork, and Legendary gear is to play them on higher difficulties, more specifically: the Grandmaster variants.
To get around this grind, players discovered that simply going into free play and setting the difficulty to Grandmaster automatically improves all the loot in world chests. In other words, you have a chance of getting the rarest gear, usually reserved for endgame activities, just from chests that spawn in the open world.
Though this discovery is barely a day old, BioWare has already tackled it in a server-side change. Anthem community manager Jesse Anderson confirmed on Twitter that world chests that aren’t rewarded for taking part in world events now have a much reduced chance of dropping the rarest items.
This goes for all difficulties, as well, not just Grandmasters.
We've reduced the chance of high rarity items in non-world event chests in free play. This applies to all difficulty levels in #AnthemGame

If you’re just getting started in Anthem, there’s a lot you need to know that the game doesn’t tell you. A good example of this is Primers and Detonators, an essential part to the game’s combat. And, if you’ve reached the trials of the various Legionnaires, including the Tomb of Yvenia, you may want to check our guide for some tips on how to knock ’em out quickly.
