Come at me bro. ;)

[pacific_coast 632]

east coast?

just go north to svetlo.

south coast?

just go west to balota.

Once you can navigate freely.. when you spawn in, cut a direct line to the NWAF. Anywhere you spawn there is plenty of towns in between to loot, and by the time you get there and finish looting the airfield you will be done. Should have most everything you need if you loot along the way, on a decent server that is.

 

And while you're there, look for me. Ill be stalking you. :)

Very nice! That's pretty much exactly the way I gear up. My buddies like to head north to the shipwreck and slowly work their way west, but I prefer to get to the west side as fast as possible. :)

Stay out of Pavlovo military base...

I skip cherno.

I skip cherno.

You run right passed it without looking at all?

Odd.

 

EDIT: You just head to the hills and hit the apartments first?

Ahh, I see now :)

Skip Elektro? Why? Because YOU get killed there? I always go to Elektro/Cherno and I always manage to escape the towns with tons of food, SKS/Mosin and ammo for them. If I spawn in Berezino I just go search for a couple of cans, I go drink to the pond and after that I rush straight to the NW AF... Your route looks like a route of a drunken boy trying to get home

Calm down, I was talking about that you are more likely to get killed there, and you can get loot elsewhere.

A nice post, but as for your point about not going to Electro; sometimes I would argue all you need is 1 gun and a little patience and learn how to score loot from a gear filled corpse. Tbh; sometimes you don't need any weapons as most of the killing is already taking place and you just need to get close enough to the shooting, stay hidden, stay quiet and move in slowly from cover to cover, and again a lot of patience. The squads there always give their position away; its just a question of waiting for the right moment to loot if you feel its safe. All you need is 30 seconds. You can gear up pretty fast from corpses in Electro is you play smartly and get straight into squad hunting.

Think I'll share mine; I believe it could be the "quickest" mentioned on this post for now.

 

Option A - Spawn at Kamyshovo or Electro = Go to Electro, listen for shots, try to find safe corpse to loot. Always some there, always!

 

Option B - Berezino - North East Airfield - North West Airfield (3 main areas = fully geared. You will walk away with at least 1 main weapon, pistol, fire axe, backpack, assault vest and other goodies)

 

 

Now for my Option B run in detail, not everyone will know which buildings im talking about, experienced players hopefully will. I only check buildings I think of as reliable loot sources of food, weapons, ammo, clothing and backpacks. Everything else is excluded. The run in detail, giving the short list of buildings is below, and in the exact order I loot them.

 

 

Berezino search in 9 buildings only; starting at...

construction site (backpack, fire axe)

1st supermarket opposite hospital (food, ammo)

pub building opposite 1st supermarket (weapon, food, ammo, backpack, other)

1 orange building (weapon, food, ammo, backpack, other)

2nd supermarket opposite 3 small apartments (food, ammo)

1 office building in lumber yard (3rd floor and roof only for weapon/ammo)

piano building now in South-East of city (weapon, ammo)

tool shop building (ammo, clothes)

pub building 2 (weapon, food, ammo, backpack, other)

 

10 minute direct run to North-East Airfield

loot airfield (self-explanatory. You should most likely have a backpack, a little or a lot of food, some high slot clothing and a weapon )

1 minute run to Krasnostav (the airfield town, loot 4 buildings only, cant remember exact order, but all close to each other)

1 orange building (weapon, food, ammo)

2 piano buildings (weapon, food, ammo)

1 office building (3rd floor and roof only for weapon/ammo)

 

15 - 20 minute direct run to North-West Airfield (this will require practice to get there asap without getting lost or sidetracked, but very easy to do)

loot airfield (self-explanatory)

 

With a little luck, you should now be "fully geared", all from 11 buildings and 2 airfields; with either an SKS, Mosin or M4 and some attachments and ammo, a pistol and ammo, an axe, an assault vest, 4-6 slot hoody/vest, 6 slot pants, either one or more of medical pack, ammo crate, gold protective case, decent amount of food and a good bit more. Drinks/water-bottle/canteen not necessary at all since Standalone has plenty more water sources than the mod ever did, so don't take up space with them unless you don't feel confident without. This can take around 90 - 120 minutes. Up to you what you do from there. Remember to check the 2 camouflaged lookout posts at the military barracks west of North-West airfield as they still spawn loot, even though the rest does not; and don't forget the single military building in the forest around 600-700 meters north-west of these barracks.

 

That's my pro run, it will serve you well, have fun guys. (Sorry for double post; just noticed)

 

You can even run to the military base south-east of the final airfield as a 4th area to try and finish off your gear, but it may not be necessary. Usually you will have all you need, and only vanity items may be gathered, such as extra ammo, gas masks, pilot/ballistics helmet etc

[real meatshield 424]

can someone find that pic of the 'path of the warrior' from a couple weeks back? cant find it to save my life, but its an excellent route. No way you get to the end and arent fully geared in under 2 hours.

[Irish. 4886]

Scavenger - straight into the largest town around, heads towards gunshots.. like a vulture

 

Noob - Runs straight into towns, towards the gunshots.. with sidechat mic blaring

 

 

 

I want to write more, but Im all out of beer damnit.

No, but found this.. all I could find. 

 

Bolata - Zeleno - Green Mountain - Vybor Military Base - NWAF  line running South to Nort

[real meatshield 424]

yeah thats basically it, adding NEAF and svetlo to finish it off and head south for battle. or reverse, if you spawn outside of berezino. <2hrs from bambi to fully geared going that way.

[Apocrypha8 54]

All of those are correct, it works out pretty well either way. Sometimes you can get lucky and find basically everything at once. At balota today there was an sks and an m4 in the hangars, and two hunter backpacks. I prefer the improvised, but yeah.

[Apocrypha8 54]

Shameless self-bump :/

[kakysas666 191]

I hate all the casual players who just want to find m4 asap aand go shoot bambis in elektro instead of looking for food and pipsi to get that healthy energized hydrated status first. I usually spawn in East coast, more often than not, in Three Valleys and have my proven route which disappointed only one time, and it was in experimental, where server restarts are rare and there are more people looting.

 

 

Thanks to casual shitters who only go to elektro, my routine was proven to work dozens of times.

 

So three valleys. Go straight west to the first long barn for a mosin (if you are lucky). Then you find this three story shed, get pipsi, clothes and maybe some ammo and infinite supply of water. Become hydrated, then go a little bit farther, like 200 meters and see a kitchen house (which is almost always unlooted). Find a gun there, if not, just enjoy free food, which has tons and almost reach energized status.

 

Then, if I am still not high on food, I go to MSTA. Find more food, casuals don't go there anyway, they know only NWAF and NEAF. Since I am able to navigate without compass in certain areas, I head straight North to Dolina, which has Police Station, yet again, rarely looted. After that, if I am still without backpack, I head yet again straight north to Factory (aka construction site) and find maybe some ammo too. From there, I am practically healthy but go by the road to Polana. After that, Gorka, aaaaaand I am fully geared. I can travel whenever I want.

 

No need to risk being shot by cow a dooty kids in airfields or elektro.

[PJSleaze 111]

I seem to start in the east. Orlovets-factory-Polana-Gorka-Dubrovka-Krasno-NEAF-Svetlojarsk. The smaller towns are usually left alone and can get you the food you need right away.The factory produces good gear- I've found guns, axes, backpacks, all kinds of good early game stuff there. Low risk until you get up towards NEAF, but by then you're healthy and armed.

[Apocrypha8 54]

All of those loot routes are good, thanks for your input guys.
