IT WAS SOUL CRUSHING. Although I should clarify, I "dropped" it because the compactor destroyed one of my large storage units. I swear they always go for those first. 

Oh well, at least I know where to get that artifact again if I really want to ID it. (It was the Zhirov one)

Ah, I was wondering why you had all that stuff on the ground. Okay that makes more sense--no less soul crushing, though! :P

They are certainly more likely than usual to smash your valuable stuff since as impact damage it ignores coverage rules.

Once upon a time, blade traps severed your large storage units.

If that is a subtle hint to remove that capability for Compactors, it's intentionally like that, after the fact :P

But yeah large storage used to be hell to use when they were low on integrity, higher on coverage, susceptible to crits, blowable by Saboteurs, severable by traps and slashing weapons... basically super annoying to try and maintain an inventory xD
