Is the Mozambique the only weapon you get on drop or am I just cursed?

I've been testing out this over and over again, and every time I drop in, I pick a random supply bin and there's a Mozambique. Or I walk into a random building in Estates an immediately see one, or an Eva-8. I don't think this is random anymore, and even if so, I don't even feel comfortable playing casual pubs anymore due to this reason. We all know dropping in with teams nearby is stressful, but when you KNOW you next supply pick is a Mozambique before you open it, it starts to become a let down. I rarely see the mythical "R-301" even though they claim its out the crafter, it might as well be in there. Sure the Mozie has come in clutch in a few 1v1's, but this is third party city. Let's face it, this gun doesn't cut it against others. Half the time if I find an R-99 I can scare off a team while I revive, but nobody really fears me with a Mozie. I literally get mopped up and dried before the enemy clip is empty. Season 14 better have better supply drop rates or its not looking good.

    @DrWizardo I think so. I find an awful lot of Mozambiques, P2020s, Alternators, & EVA8's on drop and then much better loot late.

    Something else I also found weird is when I use Loba the problem disappears. Loot bins offer more high tier loot almost regardless of POI. I don't play with her much, but it does help to see a difference with a change in character. Her passive must be coded differently from other characters.

    I feel like there's some confirmation bias at work on this one.  Sure, we all find crap weapons on drop frequently.  Now, maybe I have a cheat code for "streamer loot" or something, but there are plenty of games where I find a great loadout off rip.  A string of bad luck is inevitable, but it balances out if you play enough games.

  • @chgid2207083 same here but with RE45 , I can find 3 or 4 of them in the same building with no other weapon.
    if I open a bin I get only RE45 , if I land and don't find an RE45 then I will not find any weapon except for attachments and ammo.
    not one match or 2 to 3 I can guarantee 90% of the time first weapon I get is RE45
