Keep it tight. Go for the mid‑tier drops first – they’re cheap and decent. Hit those supply drops on the outskirts, not the center where the big guns wait. Scan the map for the low‑tier supply crates, they’re usually in the open and worth the walk. Use a quick inventory check, drop the over‑50‑value gear you don’t need, and buy the “budget” upgrades. Stick to the low‑tier sniper scopes, they’re cheaper and still do the job. Stay calm, move fast, and don’t waste a shot on a fancy piece that breaks in the first 30 seconds.
