Then, because this sort of thing makes me feel like I am going mad, I went back to all of them and took screen shots of the empty spaces where the rifle might be. I searched all the “known” spawn locations, this was the sixth time I think. And sure enough, it had spawned on “a train log cart near the trailer at the ravine exit,” making me hope that if I returned to Ash Canyon, then the Curator’s Rifle would be waiting for me. So back in Coastal Highway I started searching all the “known” locations for Barb’s Rifle again.
I was in Desolation Point headed back to Coastal Highway when this, much appreciated, 2.23 patch launched. I had found Vaughn’s Rifle BEFORE the July updates. I had searched exhaustively for both, repeatedly without success. As far as I know, neither was Barb’s Rifle. The v2.23 (120705) Quality of Life Update patch notes say, “ Fixed an issue which prevented the Curator's Rifle from spawning.” It is apparently not fixed for me.īefore the most recent update the Curator’s Rifle was not spawning in my current savegame.
