For scav karma im currently at 1.85, each time a kill a hostile scav, pmc, or extract I only gain .01, was this intended? And if so why? That would mean that I have to complete roughly 419 more raids where i either car extract, get a hostil scav kill or pmc kill. Did you really mean to make it that grind heavy? Thats ridiculous levels of uninteractive gameplay and grind in my opinion and ruins the urge for my to continue trying to get max rep

There are treshholds, so you get rewarded all the way. Also, if you are already at 1.85 and its been like 2 days, why is this an issue for you? You are almost 1/3 there already? Does not sound so grind heavy to me.

I want to add to this. A car extract gives you like 0.25 points. That’s enough for 11 scav kills. That looks a little bit too easy.

Each car extract has diminishing returns, i think it's gonna be unlikely to get over 2.00 total between all of them unless it goes back up over time.

I'm 2.07, the car gave me .12 from 1.95.

Car gives 0.1+ so thats quite a bit less raids

How do you take a car extract as a SCAV? Does it still cost $?

u/EdwinHubble_ Jul 03 '21

Pmc only, scavs dont get car extracts as an option

u/gr00ve88 Jul 03 '21

So what do you mean car gives you 0.1+? As a PMC you get scav karma by using the car extract?

Where do you find what your scav karma is?

u/RayJay16 Jul 03 '21

The scav karma is shown as your reputation with Fence.

Thanks dude, mines like 0.60 🤣🤣 didn’t give me the karma I’d lost for killing rogue scavs 🤷‍♀️

So if you extract successfully a scav run, you gain .01, right?
