    Anyone that wants easy loot without having to get too close to the mechs and fairly reliable to be done without even having to deal with a puppet is the door off the road at the SW side of the weapons factory. If anyone is new or not good at dealing with mechs but wants access to some loot to help them get to the next stage of gameplay, going in that side door the room to the right has lockers that can give pretty good weapons with very low risk if someone wanted to be in and out without engaging with puppets or mechs.
    Personally I spend a while in that place looting but I've been there hundreds of times so although it can be a high threat area, it's pretty easy for me. The weapons factory often is so easy after having learned it well that I often just go there once no a new character to get a good start solo but it is far enough out of the way that it's not something I'd go to much. If anyone wants some easy weapons though, that room can be looted without having to be in a single encounter if done correctly. I'd be no good at guides but don't mind sharing info and tips for anyone to read that might help them get some gear instead of relying on pistols and shotguns from the PDs.
    From what I've seen, the average player doesn't go to ABs much and some not at all. I've seen people that try to do their looting at the prison and while that's not a bad spot, imo it's considerably more high risk without any outstanding reward. You're right about gas stations though, quick and easy with a variety of useful loot and often a vehicle spawn. Another good spot for a new player would be the NW part of the Z3 town where it has garages beside a car repair shop, a PD, and pharmacy all right by each other. Even for an established player it can be a useful spot to stop at if in the Z sector. Just down the road from it also is a food store with some military loot, garages nearby also and a little further south of there is an old half moon with some military loot. Good spots for new players to get loot with minimal danger.
    I wouldn't go out of my way to go to any of them being in Z sector but potential reward vs risk makes them pretty good especially for a new player that may not be ready for actually dangerous areas. I think Samobor is popular because you can just about every a little bit of everything there which is especially good on a new character playthrough plus it's got lots of vehicle spawns. The naval base can be good but time consuming. Your list is accurate, I just wanted to add a few things in case any newer player watches and reads.

      @southbeatz8441 Thanks, I'm glad you found the info accurate!
      It's interesting how people have different opinions about which loot spot is the best. A lot of folks seem to think one POI (Point of Interest) is better than another just because of the loot they've found there. What they might not realize is that all the POIs actually share the same loot tables, so the chances of finding specific items are the same across the board. The real difference comes down to the level of risk and the concentration of searchable areas. For example, the Prison and the Weapons Factory both have a lot of lockers in close proximity, which can make looting more efficient compared to other POIs where items are more spread out. But at the end of the day, you can't convince everyone of that!

      @@palfy205 People want to believe their spot is best but it's all RNG, even cargo drops and kill boxes except those give perfect quality loot guaranteed. I like looting different places for something different but there are some that's just not worth it like the airfield in the NW of the map.
      Samobar I think is great on a new character because you can find a bit of everything needed to get started but not so great on an established character. You're right about people wanting to sell the dao swords though but the medieval swords from castles sell pretty good with less risk far as swords go.
      If someone just wanted some easy money in game I'd think the big hospital area would be pretty good since you can load up several hiking backpacks full of meds to sell.

      @@palfy205 What is puppet immunity? I usually encounter puppets within a few minutes of creating a character but even when doing things in SP I don't have it on default settings. Anytime I've played on default settings I'd go sometimes an hour without seeing a puppet, made the game feel extra empty.

      By default it's 2 hours of immunity, but I have it set to 60m, it's to help new players not get wrecked I suppose. I still think 60m is too long considering you need puppets to get more items like a bag or a quiver.

    @Palfy205 I would argue that the prison should be mid to high S-tier, 13 lockers and in and out in about 10mins with minimal mech contact and filling you bag with guns. If your bag isn't full from the lockers you can top it up from the garage on the way out Getting there is the main trouble but it's also right next to a trader if cash is your goal. Going by the response to my vids on it the community seems to like it as well.
    I like your summary of the Airfields, B2 don't bother with the lockers they seem to be broken - I never get anything from them, D4 can be a lot of fun doing the hangers.
    Other than that I agree with your summary for the most part, great vid mate!

    Interesting about the Asylum, i've never entered it, not sure why, I'll go check it out soon. Totally agree on the gas stations, i always check them out and even make detours to them. I haven't been to Naval for ages, but you're right the top is still good. Weapons factory is epic but i rate the prison very high also because once you get inside it's super easy and even getting in/out is not hard. Samobor has a nice PD with extra lockers but PD's have been nerfed a bit, so not that interesting anymore. Also Z3 town's PD has extra lockers. Anyway Samobor has the gun shops which is nice but besides that i rarely go there. Hospital is great and easy money source, fill a BP with meds to sell. Also best source for cook books if cooking becomes a thing again. The big train yard is one of my favorites, the south packhouses, safe and decent loot. I don't bother with the north part of center where the mechs are. Agree about the scrap yard, the no 1 place if you need vehicle parts + best source for locks i know of. (side note: Did you notice that locks are no longer repaired to 100% when taken off chests? But we still have no way of repairing them i think)

    D4 airfield is A at minimum cuz of the loot u can find inside the hangars under the earth... C3 city is S tier cuz of many garages u can find there as well as many car spawn places so IMO the best location to build a car

    • @palfy205
      @palfy205  4 месяца назад

      @joseh3843 Yeah, it used to be better, but try it since a few updates ago, and it's totally different, I used to find it easy to loot and safe from mechs. But now it seems their updated pathing has made that poi less desirable to many other players, too. Definitely still decent loot, but considering you can get the same loot in more dense quantities on other POIs, it doesn't seem worth it to me.

    Argument for the d4 airfield. Yes the outside hangers, half moons, and ww2 bunkers going to ww2 nerf sucks, and the inside being changed. Getting inside by the plane spawn is relatively easy if you are comfortable bush hopping to avoid the mech to get to the entrance to the tunnels. Once inside I feel the risk versus reward is worth it to people who can learn the pathing. The first area only had 1 mech and a ton of boxes and lockers but if you can get to the back command bunker thing in rhe middle of the tunnels most of the lockers were moved there and it seemed to me they shared the same loot as the torpedo factory. Also it was the only poi I was finding grenade launchers, awp/awms, lots of gold locks lots of ammo and lots of good military loot in the green military boxes. This all coming with the caveat of it takes a minute to learn the pathing and still can mess you up if you get caught slackin,, it is not noob friendly lol (also the loot example is from 2 months ago when I stopped playing)

    when i go there with my buddy we are everytime alone there! we have a chest full of gold locks and u can get what ever ur heart desires...ammo, guns, boom, mines, clothing, meds, building stuff,food and water. this my go to area after wipe, afterwards u get rewarded with a plane if ur lucky and ur good to go. on 2x loot u even cant carry all the stuff with u even when 2 persons double bagging

      @palfy205  4 месяца назад +1

      @saint123123123 they changed pathing, and even on normal loot, you can't carry most POIs amount of loot yourself, so why risk going inside somewhere that takes an hour when you can do any other poi that is better.
      This video was made to show people from risk to maximum potential what they can receive and there are many POIs that have much less risk and more items in them. Also there is a higher level of complexity to access this airfield since they updated it's perimeter and sentry pathing.
