Loot inconsistencies

Pic related. Level 35 and I'm getting a Level 1 gear as a loot. Why? This is one of the NCPD Scanner missions. It's like 50-50.
Half of the time I'm getting level scaled loot, the other half it's level 1 gear.

The other thing; I've completed the Junguji mission (clothing vendor). The guy told me he's got something special for me when I return. I returned and it's the same old stock, there was no reward. I was expecting some legendary quality equipment to be honest.

Love the game btw.

Same thing has been happening to me and has recently gotten worse. It used to be contained to NCPD heists but now it’s affecting side gig container loot and random enemies dropped loot. It is really frustrating getting legendary drops that have (essentially) level 1 stats, no mod slots, no perks, and are now hard locked as such; no matter if I reload older saves and redo the content.

It is a green. Lvl 1 vs lvl 9001 still breaks down into the same amount of mats.

I have had this occur with legendary drops, which is a little more upsetting. Specific examples (excluding NCPD scanner rewards) that I remember off the top of my head include: the one found in a box in the hidden fastest car’s shipping container in the bad lands, the mono wire in the car garage next to the pharmacy in the first zone, and the one found (shoes I think they were) on a dead body under an open grate in the upscale zone. No improved stats, no slots, no perks; just base lvl 1 stats and some flavor text. Especially since you can buy legendary crafting materials for way cheaper than any actual piece of level scaled vendor equipment.. not an even trade-off.
