Marathon... Shotgun farm I should probably keep a secret.
I've been learning PoIs solo on Rook while on my runs.
And I found a great farm period... but especially for shotguns.
The PoI has like a 50% spawn rate, and you don't NEED to do it... you can, but it will alert anyone in a pretty big area.
I've kept you in suspense long enough.
Ghosts, blue shielded UESC that go invisible... they often drop shotguns. So, if you could find a spot that spawns a bunch of them consistently... you could farm shottys.
That is what I've been looking for.
I found it in Bio Research in Dire Marsh.
There's a building that has a container hack on the 2nd floor.
It has all those green lasers... and hellah bots in a small, confined area. You need NOT start the hack.
1. Typically, at LEAST 3 ghosts... sometimes 4 to 5.
2. Tons of containers, multiple weapon lockers when this PoI is active.
Doing the container hack only makes it marginally better, imo. But if the time is low or you're squaded up you could do it. I'd loot first... though.
Or you can loot, activate the hack... then dip. I do that as solo Rook.
TLDR... Bio Research in Dire Marsh... Container Hack PoI with the green lasers... Loot farm, Shotty farm.
😇👍💠
To add: Is it the best loot/farm? No. But no keys required... no debuffs required, accessible to solos and lower to mid band players to get some good/great loot... including one of the best base weapons in the game right now.
And let me make a point of contrast... not too far away at Greenhouse, in the garden... there is also a container hack PoI... that one sucks, lol.
All those claymores... for a few containers in the area and then the container hack... not worth it, imo. Bio Research is so much better.
Is there a way to disarm claymores without destroying them... It's the noise... for basically one box, putting a target on your back is not worth it.
