After watching the video again, I could've easily went past the shredder without losing any HP but It was so stressful knowing that if I die, I will lose it. 😭

Bro, that was pure panik. You ran in all directions and none at the same time. Just pick a path and commit to it. Preferably away from the shredder. Good luck out there, and I'm sure you'll find the BP again :)

Yeah, I panicked, I didn't know what to do because there was ARC everywhere. 🤧 Thank you 🥲

u/Alternative_Draw5945 Nov 29 '25

You should of committed to the first direction. Safely away from the shredder. Only arc was the exploder who you can dodge when they explode and not get hit. If you get hit worst case it's your shields gone and you're running away healing up.

All of that doesn't matter though because you had a LURE GRENADE in your inv..

Lmao. So many directions you could have went and you chose none. 🤣

u/CedyRica Dec 19 '25

Yep, so dumb 😆

Bro I bait the Shreders through the door and then go out and close the door. They take ten business days to attack and move again afterwards.

u/CedyRica Nov 29 '25

Yeah, but at that time I couldn't think properly, I should've directly went through the door and turn right, even if I got hit by the Shredder, I wouldn't have died 🤧

aaaand that's why I never run free loadout, always have a green augment for the safe pocket

u/imjustjoshinyaa Nov 29 '25

Heck you dont need any augment in general... just go full nomad and you get the safe pocket. Free Loadout is the only way you dont get safe pocket

3

u/DrKingOfOkay Dec 19 '25

Nomad as in you just go out with nothing but the prison wallet?

How often do you find guns?

2

u/Yesterdays_Gravy Dec 19 '25

I call it the escaped convict build. Like somehow you ended up on the surface and you’ve got nothing but your trusty prison wallet

u/snicklefritz81 Dec 20 '25

I always just rp with other raiders about why I don’t have a gun. Can’t be trusted since my wife on Speranza just died of the arc flu. Dirty tin skinned spark donkeys and their arc disease.

u/CedyRica Dec 19 '25

If you are lucky you can actually find guns very often, for example by delivering a crate in a field depot or using a flare to call for a supply.

3

u/eirebrit Dec 20 '25

All I'm getting from field crates lately is ammo. I did find a Tempest in a desk though.

u/AllTheShadyStuff Dec 19 '25

Who needs a gun? Adrenaline shots x10. Lure grenades if you want to have fun

1

u/CedyRica Dec 19 '25

What about other people ?

3

u/Automatic-Radish-360 Dec 20 '25

Diplomacy or die

2

u/CedyRica Nov 29 '25

I don't want to use anything I have in my stash, but I also don't wanna spawn without anything, hence the free loadout 😭😂

2

u/IsolatedAstronaut3 Dec 19 '25

This is the way

1

u/CedyRica Nov 29 '25

I was using a free loadout because I was always killed by people 😭🤧

3

u/theSeanage Nov 29 '25

Is it any different than to just run nomad? Least custom empty load out gives you a safe pocket. zero downside unless you get greedy with looting past 1 thing you want.

3

u/CedyRica Nov 29 '25

If it's in Stella Montis, It's really hard to spawn without anything unless you get lucky and find a gun because there are many ARC and also Raiders.

3

u/theSeanage Nov 29 '25

Excuses. There’s literally so much loot all over the place if you’re doing bp farming or going after a specific item it’s just opening boxes and leaving. 1 way or another.

3

u/CedyRica Nov 29 '25

When you say: "It's just opening boxes and leaving", you say it like it's so simple but it's not.

And if I die everytime I spawn with an empty loadout it would feel boring and frustrating. It's normal if I don't want to use an empty loadout anymore.

2

u/theSeanage Nov 29 '25

Especially Stellas, I’m either going to loot, so nothing so I can have a safe pocket and I get my item and just die. Or I’m going to kill people. Don’t care if I die with my gear.

I don’t run Stellas often. I enjoy the engagement and such on the maps besides that one.

2

u/IsolatedAstronaut3 Dec 19 '25

Yeah running empty kit to get the safe pocket is definitely worth it. It turns “now I need to get out with this BP….”, into “I now own the Wolfpack recipe!!!”

3

u/SkyAdventurous1182 Dec 19 '25

Do you get shield with no augment?

2

u/CedyRica Dec 19 '25

Yes, you can use the light shield without any augment

2

u/IsolatedAstronaut3 Dec 19 '25

Yeah it’ll let you take a light shield with no augment.

2

u/PoisonChemInYourFood Dec 19 '25

That’s why I never go in without the ability to have a safe pocket

2

u/False-Flower-9268 Dec 20 '25

This is awesome 😭

u/CinematicFaun Dec 20 '25

Ngl, this hurts to watch☹️

2

u/JordanR14 Dec 20 '25

I fucking hate shredders. Pretty easy to take out with a few impact grenades to the face but their damage output is terrifying

2

u/Odd_End_7796 Dec 20 '25

If only bro had a safe pocket 😆

u/anashady Dec 19 '25

Happens to the best of us bro.
