Challenge: Living off Elektro

[Imafighter 236]

So I have an idea. How about you try to survive by just looting corpses in Elektro? No killing, no talking to others, nothing except picking up loot and getting the best possible loadout you think you can get. Then post a screenshot/desc of what your gear is, and your story, if you feel like sharing it.

Yeah.

But as soon as they find an AK or something, they leave.

And they usually shoot at people. Or talk to them. Or both.

With this, you can only loot dead bodies.

Looting bodies = getting backstabbed with an As50.

Exactly why its a challenge.

If i am near Cherno or Electro when i spawn i generally give the towns a wide berth. Both towns make me feel dirty.

I actually kind of like the idea of this. Next time I respawn close to Elektro or Cherno I'll give this a shot. It'd be interesting to see how long I can survive scavenging the scraps from everyone else.

Might be fun to try something similar at some point. I've yet to actually walk into either city because any time I get within a few hundred meters I usually get shot.

Hmmm... going homeless in Elektro? Sounds interesting. I call the trunk of the GAZ that spawns in the shed just east of town.

add two rules and i might be interested:

1. no weapons except hatchet/crowbar

2. live off the loot spawns, but not the bodies.

Why not survive as a hobo does? Just sit around electro asking for beans? You know what i'm gonna try it, i'll which my name to "A Hobo" and just sit outside the office building asking for change in direct chat.
