So confused about Railjack Loot

[_Euphoria_]

I just did a veil mission and completed it with a crew. Then we all took our time to loot the map clean and make sure nothing is left. I am pretty sure I ahve seen a sum of over thousand carbides show up on screen. just before we return to drydock, I went to forge and ''refined'' my stuff and guess what? 

My result screen showed only 200 carbides as gain. How? This keeps happening in every single RJ mission I play. I only get a smaal amount of loot I have actually earned during the mission. What am I doing wrong here?

The forge can only have 200 items at a time, if they still haven't fixed the bug where overflow doesn't go to your inventory then that means everything above will be lost.

Really only 200? I have seen the loot split, meaning the same item is captured more than once with different amounts (still resulting the the max looted).

Yes during your looting make sure someone, preferably someone with high engineering is occasionally refining them.

Wait, so the refine function is squadwide and effects the loot of all?

[Megalomaniakaal]

yes.

Frankly, not even convinced it's a bug. More likely and experiment to try and make engineering more important and engineers more appreciated by other squad mates.

I'm late to this post, but I have been looking for an answer to this everywhere with no luck.

How do you refine something? Console just got the update yesterday and after a few missions and a bunch of oddly missing resources this seemed to be the reason I found through my research. I just can't find out how.

You go to the Railjack foundry, preferably when it won't be needed anymore, and you should see a square button prompt above the resources that says "refine". Just press it and all materials will be awarded to the squad.

At least from my limited experience that's how it goes. Cheers!

And that is while in mission before going back to drydock right?

Yes. It also means that the stuff you refine won't be able to be used to craft Revolite and munitions and stuff in your mission, so if you need to make repairs, it's probably best not to refine.

Cool, and where in the ship is the foundry? 😅

Somehow i've missed that, but obviously there's been a lot of new stuff to take it all at once in the last 24 hours.

Its at the back on the bottom floor. The small little lights on the gantry there are the foundry, but you can only use it in missions.
