I feel that conflict zones are one of the more fun parts of ground combat, but they don't contribute to gear progression at all, and the credit payout is lackluster. It seems the number one way to get materials for ground equipment right now is to just spam an outpost over and over again which is incredibly boring. (don't get me wrong, infiltration missions are super fun, but after the 50th optimized run to grind mats it kind of takes the luster out of it). I think it would be great if a successful conflict zone victory awarded some kind of materials package with an assortment of upgrade mats. Since the gear progression for personal equipment is more or less entirely divorced from the main game modes, you would expect almost every mercenary activity to award some amount of progression, and not to be tied primarily to picking up hundreds of items on an outpost.
Conflict Zones should award ground equipment upgrade materials

I've said before that the settlement should just power up and let us loot it normally.
