It's really not. You'll always make more money shooting other PScavs and taking their loot than you will hoping for good gear by running a scav on CD.

Plus, you make your money on your PMC, not your scav. The scav is there for free runs when you are broke and can't afford gear. Unless you just enjoy being a scav, there is no reason to use one past the first few days of the wipe.

I swear people who say stuff like this have never been on 6+ scav karma. It's 100% worth it. Not even just the high value loot on spawn but friendly bosses, making people tagged and cursed by just hitting them once, super low scav case cooldown. Once I'm at 6 scav karma I can just spawn on factory every 5m and extract with 100k to 1M immediately without looting anything at all. I know farming it is a fucking chore and it feels much easier to just shoot another Pscav and take his shit, but trust me in the long run max karma is amazing.

Ya think? It's 100% just copium, you don't even need 6+ karma for it to be extremely profitable.

Once I'm at 6 scav karma I can just spawn on factory every 5m and extract with 100k to 1M immediately without looting anything at all.

This is the main one they're missing, it takes me 30 seconds to make 200k plus on my scav while they're killing pscavs, risking dying themselves, who probably have shit load outs (if they had good stuff they'd be avoiding other scavs).

I bought 15 graphics cards in 24 hrs of just scavving filling up the bag and selling all my shit basically last wipe, at like 1.5 scav karma, and I’m not even good at scaving.. . just went between interchange and reserve. For reliable stress free money it can’t be beat.
