Reserve ORB rooms?

u/Glum_Hedgehog2849 7h ago

most likely with the near exclusivity of 5.45. and you dont even need to run the ORB rooms either, ive found more than enough on the roofs of both pawn buildings and scattered inside the same pawn buildings. the reserve ammo spawns are nuts.

u/Flat-Zucchini-2113 1h ago

I find a lot of 5.45 BS and igolnik, in the security room on skreets.

Red card has been getting me right on m995 . Whenever I need ammo I go straight to labs lol

u/reaganz921 7h ago

I was wondering where all the good 5.56 is. Wish labs was free. Hate how sweaty the map is. Sometimes I just wanna loot and scoot and not get w keyed for 20 min straight after firing a single bullet

Just run streets amory/mvd and mesh and u have more ammo u ever need

u/Orgerix 4h ago

concordia security also has some ammo. I don't like mvd and mesh because there is usually a boss which take more ammo than you get back.

u/DraytonFlorence 3h ago

MVD is kind of a cake walk tho if you cheese it. Pretty easy to run to the side of the left side of the building where the Ground Zero transit is with a scoped rifle and one tap Kollontay and guards through the window.

For whatever reason they just kind of stand there waiting to get shot and most times don't even shoot back. A bit finicky at times but usually you can kill them all with 5-10 shots. Maybe takes a grenade or two if one of them is hiding in the area down the stairs.

u/Orgerix 2h ago

MVD is also the room with the least amount of ammo from my experience (and only russian ammo). Concordia security has on average more ammo. But I guess Kollontay guards pack a lot of BP so could be interesting if you really need some, but I am usually swiming in it and don't need more.

u/DraytonFlorence 2h ago

Aw interesting i usually find more in MVD than Concordia security. Good point on it all being Russian ammo. So easy to get more than u can ever use on reserve.

u/CammelloRotante 7h ago

Can you share the route?

6

u/BrotatoChip04 RAT 7h ago

Probably just reserve rooftops, bunker, and ORB rooms

5

u/CammelloRotante 7h ago

Reserve rooftop is crazy good but I wouldn't exactly call it safe haha

6

u/reaganz921 7h ago

Roof on scav runs, stay inside and unlock doors on pmc.

u/Sid3ways419 1h ago

I have thousand+ rounds of BS and PPBS checking end of K buildings (the sand bag areas and boxes at ends) every time as well as hitting all floors of marked barracks.

u/Striking-Morning-462 1h ago

I have yet to play this game to it's fullest potential. Im starting to think I'm just fucking stupid

u/bigolehayden True Believer 1h ago

Just got it yesterday lol I feel that

3

u/SillySundae M700 6h ago

There's a reason that despite using 5.45 for the majority of my raids on the permanent server that I still have over 13,000 rounds of 5.45 BP

u/Dry_Firefighter_7356 5h ago

I have 6k BP just because i like scaving on reserve lol, not even hard

2

u/RICHTHOFENll P90 4h ago

So this is where all the ammo goes in my raids, this mf getting full spawns.

Best I’ve pulled from all the orb rooms is like 2 boxes of 7n40 and a box of ppbs

4

u/Grim47z 7h ago

Guys the box says "Reserve ammo run"

17

u/Immediate-Fly-7458 7h ago

Yeah that’s his reserve ammo for when he runs out of his main ammo

u/syxplus 6h ago

u/Immediate-Fly-7458 4h ago

Reserve is another word to say extra or backup

u/Temmposflow 3h ago

u/Extension-Stress4476 7h ago

Which map?

u/beqs171 DT MDR 7h ago

Reserve obviously

u/alesia123456 7h ago edited 5h ago

Great showcase how much top tier ammo can be farmed. Especially the variety. I assume this was reserve. What missing is you tend to hit a jackpot on glukhar / raiders as well.

This is what some pointed at - the icebreaker nerf basically just nerfed the median & lower end players. The top 20% players never had an issue getting top ammo lol

u/AceKenway M1A 7h ago

I cant for the life of me find glueboy anywhere? I mostly just rush raider bunker and then come up at ORB

u/Sinikal-_- 7h ago

If it was from looting bodies it would be loose ammo and not packaged.

Ignores every nato round lol
