i'd take 6 end for strong back and I'd never do it in tb its way faster in rt.

advantage of my way is that u can do this fast, no need leveling or anything else just new alt,10hides and 3000xp. u can carry like 55 junks and u r operating next to tent so more CW is not very important. Hostile encounters in this way are not frequent, point is to make risk to die very low. RT is mouch more risky all time. For strong back u need 15 000 xp...

Hostile encounters in this way are not frequent

Hostile encounters? Encounters? Where I was gathering junk were no encounters at all. 100% empty encounters and yes, 100%, because I entered these damn location 100500 times and never ever had encounters, only once some guy appeared in my encounter. So there's no reason for TB.
Also take not only 10 ST, but also HH and tag unarmed, once, my CW alt was gathering wood, an evil PK in CA and laser pistol appeared on encounter, well.. he started to shoot me, I ran to him and almost killed: I was talking to him while knocking down saying that he's being beaten by 1st lvl CW alt, so probably this distraction could make me hit him less frequently, especially when my CW alt had 1 IN, and my speech was unreadable and I had to repeat phrases +I laughed so much from situation + speech that he managed to get up and run away from me and I continued cut wood.

[RavenousRat]

Isn't it totally random? I had from 2 piles to something like 10, sometimes you can find 5 piles in one hex + a lot piles around, sometime just 2 piles on whole map.

Yes, good point RavenousRat. This is way i have not considered, if theres more such places, my guide is usless. But if i need gather 1750 junk in VC without transfer over long distance my way is still best one for me. My "guide" will work in any location on map.

Iam gathering near Abandoned mine at Gecko, i found min 1 and max 9 piles there, sometimes on exit grid, sometimes too many walls to search all over so better choice is reenter.

[Ganado]

Just wanted to say, whether you are at New Reno, Gecko, or v15, it's the same random chance to get X amount of junk per encounter, in case that wasn't clear.

You can avoid encounters while entering the location by zooming in on global before doing it.

ehm somehow i dont understand what your saying here

[Castony]

Sorry, that's because of my bad english. Zoom in before entering location from global - you will aviod encounters that way.

Science your all your items. Fast and easy.

[naossano]

Having built various bases with a dedicated alts, i had very few encounters.
But even with junk in almost every encounters, it takes around ten minutes to get 50 junks.

Which leads to 6-7 hours to build a scrapheap. It almost as scary as to do TC ou look for blueprint...
(6-7 if you get junk in every encounters, don't get any hostiles, and never got tired. Which means probably more time)

Science your all your items. Fast and easy.

May i science yours ?
