The Best Way To Farm Rare Guns In State Of Decay 2 

There is even an easier way....just change the map to standard after your done and boom you get to keep all the guns and you get to do it again...then when your done switch the map back to green. Then if you want after finding 50 or so guns you can start the game

Been looking for something like this, weapon farming. Liked and subbed. Really like your simplicity to explain the run without too much explanation or a lengthy video.

I've never seen a character with a beard before. It must be rare. Honestly, i hope character customization becomes a thing in State of Decay 3. With more variety and more distinct characters.

Thanks to the guide, I found 2 Snowfox guns in a single run. I modified the run a little since I'm specifically looking for rares. The RTX Cyclone Tactical still continues to elude me though. If I were to do the run for rares and military grade weapons, my only adjustment to your route is to hit the rare loot crate in the crater pond after the military medic base since it is on the way to the second military base. Also because I'm looking for specific items, I ended up optimizing search speed by maxing stealth to remove likelihood of search crashes when searching at speed and shopping for slightly increased search speed instead of using backpacking and resourcefulness to optimize carrying capacity. Thank you for the guide.

Dat music on the speedup. Good informative video man. Straight to the point, entertaining and useful all in one.

I managed to get the modified Glock on a character with gunslinger, I walked through hordes like they weren't even there. It's an amazing gun.

You can also farm weapons from the broker too if you start with the trader boon

Great video Brian, love the content. Title should be best Solo farm tho as the best way to farm these rare guns, regular guns and echo guns is the Heartland map farm due to it's enormous military loot density, only downside to the hearltnad farm is it requires a friend or your second account to join at the end and pickup all the loot dropped on the ground.

Only thing about this (while I freaking love it) is that you have to make sure to remember who the hell has what lol. However I just realized you could pick 3 characters and drop whatever they had saved from old games and then just take them out and load up. Granted I would have to break out pen and paper to be like "Lisa has x y z" haha

OmGosh... They must have changed that, because in the beginning, it didn't matter if they were legacy or not. If you deleted the save.. they were gone...

Whoa whoa whoa! How did you get a white survivor with a beard? All I’ve been looking for is a survivor that looks like me.

You could also check the trunk of the starter car first. Sometimes it will have a gas can or fuel rucksack in it. Don't know why, since the who shtick is that you ran out of gas so you are going to make your home on that map. Yet sometimes the car will have gas cans in the back.

Really been enjoying the videos man. Very well spoken and hard not to like, caught your love video yesterday about mental health and I genuinely enjoyed your words. Keep it up bro 😎

I can't believe that as long as I've been playing I never noticed the exact working of that delete warning. Thanks for the tip; that alone was worth the watch and the rest was a bonus. I was like, "what is he doing, this isn't going to accomplish anything .... wait .... what ....DERP!"

Easiest way: make backup of your save game folder, add characters with rare guns, grenades, mods, books, whatever, make 3 copies of the same community, export any random character packed with stuff from your inventory to legacy. Now you have 3 characters packed with the best equipment, you can add them whenever you want, start a new game etc. You can use this method to endlessly multiply whatever you want (including survivors). It's actually super easy. I recommend you always have backup save games just in case.

Bro you’re the GOAT. Helped me out a ton. Got a snow fox on my second farm run. Won the game

Right after he says “Imma show how to do it fast” his character said “okay“

I would add using the dlc spawns as well. Each new community gets access to several one-time free supply crates of rare of rare/special items and weapons (melee, guns, firework weapons, and vehicle drop offs). Honestly they can be a little broken but at the same time they have nerfed some of this. If you spawn in the Meat Wagon that's a free van at your location and if you bring a heavy vehicle upgrade kit on one of your legacy survivors then you have a Vandito right out the gate and can go hit up every secret weapons crate. Pick the Warlord and Trader boons for immediate weapon and renown stockpiles. You could also have one of the characters kitted for destroying plague hearts to nab their loot as well. A Red Talon character with the programer skill, a maxed communication center, and two cell tower outposts will have you able to drop a drone strike every 15 minutes (all paid for by the Trader boon).

I guess the only thing I would say is if you pulled up the map whenever you at the spot for the guns to see where it's at.

Awesome video! I never started a hard difficulty without already having a bunch of weapons and some plague cures with me

Dude I want to thank you for showing me this because I have had weeks of trying to find fancy guns to trade in for influence or 50 cal rounds THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!

the best gun imo in sod is the preppers AK-47 with the 150 round mag! i found one in the hillside camp in Trumball valley and bought one from a red talon trader. they're awesome for taking out plague hearts, hordes and juggernauts! you're gonna go thru a LOT of 7.62 ammo but it's worth it!!!

You can also if anything claim your base an then do the loot run put it in your locker an reset the map an then when your done have a friend grab what you want then bring it to your main community

11:57 ....a little reading goes a long way, I just figured it said they all would be deleted and never read the red text

I have used this method to winnow my legacy pool down from 50 about 5 times getting rid of more than 2x 5th skills, worthless hero bonuses, legacy types I play the least etc. And of course making speed runs through meagher valley in the burninator to farm gear of course.

15:59 Barrel rolling into barrels makes you get barrels in your car.

I had a feeling there was a cool way to get better loot but that means ignoring possible survivors. Can you make a video about finding good survivors

M39? I was issued a SSR myself. Same thing I believe, I was navy. Actually building one now. Very good time.

I need to know, where are the people getting the guns that every now and again will drop to you when you invite people in? Even with MODS and upgrades, I've never been able to make a gun have 1000 round capacity or kill a plague heart in one or two shots. Yet once in a great while someone will drop one after being invited in. Where and how are they getting these? And how do I get my hands on them?!

Just finished the game for the first time so I only have one legacy survivor. I’m currently on my second play through. Once I get my third legacy survivor I’ll do the speed run. Appreciate the video 💪🏾

Can you do a similar video on what guns to look out for while doing this? Maybe just your favorites for specific situations? Just getting started and jumped straight into Lethal. About to finish up my first legacy and it's not immediately obvious which weapons are better than others.

I would just get cans and drive to the nearest rare crate and keep opening it up that would be 10x easy

100% Legit,Gotten Every Last Gun Within 2 hours of doing this💯

use this run myself. well my variation. anyway. good stuff. but i noticed the lack of advanced suppressors attached to like the arctic warrior etc. interesting. i really feel we need a way better use of our legacy survivors

I had an unbreakable asian guy who loved hong kong trivia with a ushanka hat... fkin cannibals got him man Now i only roll with heavily armed gunslinging unbreakables with the rtx full auto rifles i got 10 of them and one immortal all with the 5th skill free and they all slice heads off with one button. Theres very few situations they cant handle and thats purely because of the games npc mechanics which is massively better today compared to 4 years ago.

So I'm confused, what's the point of grinding to find all these weapons when you're just going to lose them later, and if I'm wrong please explain to me how I keep them because I see it as pointless, and if I'm wrong, what do you do when everyone's inventory is full

Cant you change the difficulty or reload the map to re populate the rare weapon crates

Hi Brian, newbie here. So you do the run and exit the game, then start a new community with the same survivor to keep the guns?

New sub here! loving your content, mate! Keep at it!

Nice breakdown dude never thought of doing runs like this.

Great video, learned a lot.... mainly not to let you drive unless I want the car flipped.

Hey brian a good recommendation for a video is how to duplicate wepons and ammo is very useful lol I did it I have like a bunch of wepons

I basically farmed a bunch of stuff by playing SoD on standard first. As I got more confident, I bumped the difficulty every map I beat. It might not be ideal or fair to some. Maybe some wanna get the whole true grit experience. I wasn't trying to do this but I coincidentally did it and noticed it.

So, what're the best guns, in your opinion? (For your main, for your follower, and for your stay-at-homes)

Yes finally somebody acknowledged the g18

Ignore the starter car and order up a burninator.

Question: after i get all the loot that i need the only way i can get that stuff is if i call the legacy survivors whit 1200 influence or is there another way?

Hey Brian can you plase play WWZ Please I promise you it has some Great guns

I always give all my people a fuel rucksack so when I start a new game, they got gas on them already.

never knew it worked like this cause I have never deleted a community lol thanks for the info Brian

I tried recently to go to those two under the bridge in Meager valley, which I used to be able to do. This last time i got the you are leaving the map message just halfway down the dry river bed.

Hitting up the near by gun store is a good idea as well

These are the videos that I miss. So much less stress trying to catch a live stream. Need to get back to your tutorials bruh, they are the bomb and we can focus on the video rather than random chat(s). And stop picking up barrels while driving.

Omg i love that song on 13:20! :)

Cant wait for SoD3. I hope they flesh every system out to the max as well as relationships with communities and raiders with more human enemy threats. Wonder if we will be able to make camp as well while traveling.

Thank you for the video! So for the legacy survivors, do you have to delete the community early-on/before the first safehouse? I have some of my fav survivors on a playthrough I started but want to get them back in the pool to use elsewhere. I was going to set it to green zone and try to speed run it, but if I can load them up with gear then just delete the save and them safely return to the legacy pool that'd be awesome! (they were all legacy'd over from my first normal playthrough)

Love that snow fox it's a beast wicked good gat lol been playin SOD for about a year now played evey map at least 5 times and only found 1 snow fox.

One of my community is a pure hoarder community of unique weapons and supplies... Not sure how to feel about that.

Once your done you can give all the loot to a trusted friend and have him give it back to your main community

I've actually come back to this video because I had a question and I couldn't remember if it was mentioned, and it appears it wasn't. Would it be possible to have 3 legacy characters, start their "loot run" with "trader and warlord" boons active, so I can basically get free weapons at base, put them on my characters and delete the community so I can have some starter weapons for a NON-Warlord real community? And in regards to trader boon, could I use that, take the first base to get the 4k influence, build a trader post to call in traders, then spend the free influence on say: ammo presses? Then delete the community to give my next community ammo presses to start?

Is there a way to do this without starting a new community Edit: this is because iv got a group of 8 red talon operators and my base is full of gear ready to switch to lethal mode but i just need rifle ammo press and SWAT416 with long scope

The survivors that have Backpacking and Resourcefulness on them, I call "Pack Mules" 😂

Dude that remix beat was dope.

I got 5 on it base line?

This is before the sidearm update huh

I just want the Swat 416 with long scope and a rifle press

Thought that was Marcus for SOD1

Any tips on finding a Rifle ammo press

Bro video lit always but I got 5 on it remake instrumental is 🔥🔥🔥

Ok so someone help me out. I've noticed that when filling characters with goodies before the end of a game. That when I start the new community they show up with all the goods. Which is awesome, but if I back out and start a new community and pull the same person in everything is gone except for what they have equipped. All other slots are empty. Is this intended? If so, how do I do these runs like this. Cause they'd just lose everything after I pull em in the 2nd time. I'm confused...

How do you get the loot off the legacy survivors i missed that part 😵‍💫

Bout to load my game and visit those rare cases in my current community. Also powerhouse is life.

Would it work to start with the trader boon and get stuff from bounty broker.

Do u still have the Bellawood sword ? Because I want it. if yes then wut do u want for it?

Can you just hit 2 rare weapons crates and the military trauma centre then reload the map ... and repeat

I didn't know there were such rare weapon cases on the map, are there similar ones for other maps as well ?

Just play lethal zone and by the time you actually finish killing that many plague hearts, you'll have pretty much everything.

Skip to minute 10 to find out how it works

The said the because he opened the jerry can highlighted

Btw can u get the svd Sniper rifle from doing this it my actual most fav gun

Me:: hey Brians streaming! Brian:: Ha nope! Me:: I feel cheated lmao Glad to see the driving skills are still strong even when we arent watching B

very interesting and informative - tks for sharing

is these crates only accessible after a playthrough or are they just there but easy to farm with legacy chars?

So I need to get Legacy first . Bye completing 1 map? B4 I can farm like this ?

How do you find the 5.56/7.62 MOD its always hard to find

Yo did u choose a specific legacy boon or not

Do u get better guns in the crates if it's a higher difficulty?

i was playing with a friend and got a snow fox i didn't know they were rare though.

Do weapon cases spawns again if you change or exit to new map?

No disrespect man, but I tried a couple runs like you did before you even made this video, and it is tedious and usually you get nothing worth being excited about. Even playing Greenzone difficulty, you will find crap. I guess if someone wants to do this for 10-20 hours they might find stuff they are actually looking for, but...why not just play the game then? [or if you want to kill all the fun, use mods on PC] Most of the guns and weapons can be had with some of the merchants that show up just a few hours into the game. On Lethal I even managed to get a merchant with the Infinite rage 150 mag AK-47. That being said, 700 hours later I still haven't seen all the guns in the game. UL needs to make it easier for people to find weapons they want somehow. Maybe a merchant that costs 2000 influence to call in or something.

How are you supposed to deposit the guns after you get them?

I don't know if this works for me yet but I love how clear instruction you are making.

"How to farm rare guns" Me: *Mods*

How do I get the stay frosty weapons??? I don't see it for any bounties

need the track from the timelapse'

Was that Luniz I got 5 on it

Why can’t I do it I have finished a legacy and tried doing this but doesn’t work

Have they patched this out yet. I can't imagine they would lets this go on.

2 years late but thank you for your service boss👍🏼

Nobody gonna say anything about the fact that he had no reaction to getting 41 AP bullets at 11:15??
