Understand Retrieve
Useful when…
- Chesa Kubrow companion setups focused on extra loot
- Players who can make use of additional scavenging from enemies or containers
Scavenge chance and range
Retrieve has a chance to scavenge additional loot from a fallen enemy or container within range, every 10 seconds. Its range and chance scale with rank: 5 m and 7.5% at rank 0, 20 m and 30% at rank 3, and 30 m and 45% at rank 5. The chance is not a guarantee on each eligible opportunity.
Compatibility and ranking
This is a standard Chesa Kubrow mod with Penjaga polarity, zero base drain, and maximum rank 5. Ranking increases both chance and range, while the listed fusion examples require progressively more Endo and credits. Invest in higher ranks if broader reach and a greater chance per opportunity are useful for your scavenging setup.
Different precept function
Neutralize is described as making the Kubrow roar, causing enemies within 10 m to stumble and drop their weapons. That is a combat disruption effect; Retrieve instead checks nearby fallen enemies or containers for additional loot. The two precepts serve separate purposes rather than offering the same benefit.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The scavenging chance is probabilistic and checks occur every 10 seconds.
- Range and chance are lower at lower ranks.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Treating the chance as guaranteed on every fallen enemy or container.
- Assuming the 30 m maximum range at rank 0.
