You're not wrong, Starfield has a pretty big loot problem at present, and I really hope that is patched later on. It's a little sad that one of the best spacesuit sets in the game, the Mantis set, is earned so early in the game. I have yet to find a single set with better modifiers than the mantis set, whose 3 pieces boost various useful things like carry capacity, oxygen drain when overburdened, and the one that boosts armor the lower your health drops. The problem is that though the modifiers on the Mantis set are good, and the suit looks cool as well, it's base stats are pretty weak, you can straight up find white quality spacesuit sets with better base stats than the Mantis armor, and with randomized loot and no proper crafting system, it is far too difficult to find a random drop legendary set with good modifiers and good base stats, and you can't craft one either.
What they need to do is patch in a higher drop rate for legendary spacesuit pieces so that you actually have a decent chance of finding a full matching spacesuit set with both good base stats and good modifiers. Higher drop rate for higher rarity weapons woukd be nice as well.They also need to patch in a proper crafting system that allows you to make your own spacesuit and weapons instead of just modifying the ones you find, and also craft modifiers for those spacesuits and weapons with each one you slot in improving your item rarity from white to blue to purple to gold. The crafting system also needs to allow you to improve base stats of a weapon or spacesuit piece just like the Skyrim crafting system did, which allowed you to improve your weapons and armor with your upgrade tier appearing in parenthesis in the item name, such as fine, epic, legendary, maybe instead of those put +, ++, +++ in parenthesis to show your current upgrade tier.
