For questions about the new update! Which I'm in love with.
How the heck do we get actions for our guns? Or am I blind?

Break down the guns, it's random which parts you get. I broke down four guns and only got 1 Action out of it one time, then another time I broke down 3 guns and got 2 of each type.

Yep what Cliff said. And soon you'll find them in various warehouses and gangster hideouts, and so on and so forth. Maybe some one of a kind competition parts too? Could be fun.

Couple of things I've noticed so far:
- The quality of the components doesn't seem to have any effect on the final rating of the gun but that could just be me. I know various stats play into this but with mechanics 11 and skill 18 (not this character), I'd expect something better from components rated 6 and higher than a 4/5/4 rating.
- It eats energy for no real EXP gain, even when you're successful - it's less energy:EXP efficient than standard crafting, and that's kinda really saying something.
- I get why breaking down the guns doesn't give you all the components from a single gun, but could it be slightly less random? I got one barrel after breaking down eight guns.
- I'm not 100% sure that the chance to break thing is accurate? Every time I get to an 18% chance to break, it breaks. Which means either I am the unluckiest person in the history of ever or something's a little off.
Hope I don't sound like a dick. Lists are just better for getting various points out there <.<

Yeah, after using ALL of Zoey's 80 energy I have to agree. The EXP payout is depressing.

True, though if you think about it, if you make a better weapon, you'll have better odds of fighting tougher enemies and making more EXP

Not to say the fact that it is such a bother to craft, means you can sell it for most likely relic prices.

If you can make a decent weapon. I maxed out all of Blake's parts for a sword and he is sitting on a measly 6/5/6 sword. That is unlikely to sell for relic prices.

True but I was speaking on those that are higher.

If he had all 14 parts and it came out a 6/5/6... That's pretty meh.
