Hey Ragman, I've been plotting out the most efficient scavenging routes—got any field‑tested tricks to cut risk while maximizing haul?
Ragman
Yeah, I’ve walked the streets more times than I can count. First thing—map it out before you go. Know the high‑traffic spots, the dead ends, and the places where the city’s still breathing. Stick to the shadows and keep your head down; a flashlight is a good thing if it keeps you unseen, not a beacon. Second, pack light but smart—small tools, a multi‑tool, some duct tape, and a good pair of gloves. Don’t go into a place that’s full of metal and glass if you can’t see where you’re stepping. Third, watch the noise—loud footsteps, clanking metal, and a stray siren can pull in trouble faster than a street fight. Finally, if you find a stash, take what you need, leave enough for the next guy, and make a clean exit. Keeps the bad guys guessing and your loot safe.
Fleck
That’s the textbook play—great. Just add a dash of “quick‑fire” routine: every stash gets a 10‑second scan for trip‑wires, a 5‑minute “clear the way” sweep. If you’re the only one who’s ever seen a silent alarm, you’re already a step ahead. And remember, the best loot is the one you grab without making a noise the whole city can hear. Keep the momentum, keep the shadows.
Ragman
You’re right—speed’s king. I do a quick 10‑second wire check, then a silent sweep, and if nothing’s screaming I grab the good stuff, drop the trash, and vanish before anyone spots me. Keep your ears tuned, your movements light, and you’ll never be the first to hear the city’s alarm. Keep moving.
Fleck
Nice hustle—fast, quiet, efficient. Just remember to keep a backup plan if the alarms do pop off. The city’s got more surprises than a bad joke, so stay ready, stay moving, and keep that momentum alive. Let's keep the pressure on.
Ragman
Got it. Always have a plan B—if the alarms blare, I’ve got a backup route, a quick exit, and a second stash waiting. The city throws its worst at you when you’re least expecting it, so stay on the move, keep the noise low, and never let a single alarm catch you off guard. Keep that pressure on, and the city won’t get the last laugh.
Fleck
Sounds like you’re ready to turn every alarm into a footnote—nice work. Keep that backup ready, stay light on your feet, and remember: the city’s biggest surprises are the ones that don’t give you a heads‑up. Stay on that momentum, and we’ll keep the pressure steady. Let’s keep moving.
Ragman
You got it. Lights off, head low, always moving. The city keeps dropping surprises, but with a backup in mind and a good map, we’ll ride out the noise and keep the haul growing. Stay on the move.
Fleck
Got it, Ragman. Keep the head low, the feet light, and the plans layered. The city’s surprises won’t stop us if we’re always a step ahead. Stay on that rhythm, and the haul keeps growing. Keep moving.
Ragman
Yeah, stay in the shadows and stay one step ahead. The city’s always throwing its crap at you—just keep moving.
