Nerfing Hidden Stashes

[Parazight 1607]

I think Hidden Stash should be an item that has to be placed.  This item could be made from tarp, animal fur, rope, and/or sticks.  You then bury the item with a tool.  The item would be too small for assault rifles and would only last (15) days.  At the end of that time the items pop onto the ground.  The item cannot be refreshed and digging it up destroys it.

In my opinion the current hidden stash mechanic has room for improvement.  The goal here is to make hidden stashes widely accessible, yet not cost-effective.  It provides a unique option in a desperate situation but not worth it as a long term storage option at all.  Like, if your squad wants to stash extra gear before an assault.  Or something you use in an emergency.  Maybe after your car achieves lift-off, but doesn't quite make it.  You'll need a place to store gear for a short while.  But definitely make stashes unappealing to hoarders as much as possible.

Sounds like a fantasy world where physics and rationale don’t exist.

They should get rid of craftable crates and compensate with a few barrels or tents. Make dry bags far less common and make them count toward the max like sea chests.  Buried stash should last 21 days.

None of it matters if they just keep wiping more than once a year.

Drybag idea.

Why make it pop put on the ground? Just make the items despawn.
