Overview
- Nerd's Chalk’s Nov. 13 guide says Power Banks pull from the Electrical loot pool and are best found in apartments, tech shops, mall buildings and other interior shelf-dense spaces rather than nature or mechanical zones.
- Destructoid identifies Industrial Battery hotspots for Gear Bench progression on Dam Battlegrounds at the Hydroponic Dome Complex and Power Generation Complex, with additional finds at Spaceport’s Rocket Assembly and Blue Gate’s Warehouse.
- Across the guides, the most reliable maps for electrical and industrial components are cited as Dam Battlegrounds, Spaceport, Blue Gate and Buried City, especially in generator rooms, control rooms, maintenance bays and substations.
- Reported recycle yields include Power Bank into 2 Batteries and 2 Wires, Industrial Charger into 6 Energy Cells and 2 Circuit Boards, and individual Battery into 2 Tech Fragments, with Chargers and Power Banks stacking to 3 at ~2.0 kg and Batteries stacking to 15 at ~0.25 kg.
- Recommended tactics emphasize prioritizing tech or electrical interiors, sweeping lockers and toolboxes, running light, using the Safe Pocket to protect rare finds and extracting promptly, with occasional Battery drops noted from mechanical ARC enemies.
