Is it uncommon to find 3 AKM's in a fire station?

Recommended Posts

So was going on a loot run in elektro and headed to the fire station. In the tower I found an AK on the top 3 floors. I'm relatively new so is this uncommon/rare? Or is it just usually like that maybe after a sever reboot?

AKM is the most common assault rifle, and the firestation is medium yield. So I wouldn't find it surprising.

The loot system is not relative. Each spawn location in a building has the same chance to drop an item, so there is no diminishing chance of the same weapon dropping or not spawning because another location has the same item.

All loot spawns are based on a percentage loot table. The rarer stuff being less common. So TECHNICALLY, there could be, say, 6 pairs of NVGs, in a firestation. While that would be a 0.00001% chance of happening, it could happen.

Anyways, AKs are actually very common in military buildings so i'm not that surprised.

On top of what the others have said I believe that the RNG gets stuck sometimes. It is not uncommon to run into a church and find 6 maps, or 4 alice packs in a grocery store. Ran into a fire-station outside of Electro once and found 3 M16/m203's.

I've only found an Ak (Of any kind) in the barracks at the North air field. Also one normal Ak at the Medic camp by the shore line. So I'm slightly surprised. =]
