Tips for faster Battery farming

  • Prioritize Tech-heavy zones such as power plants and maintenance rooms.
  • Loot all small lockers and containers; batteries frequently spawn in these.
  • Defeat ARC drones and machines, as they sometimes drop batteries.
  • Keep high inventory slots free for batteries since they stack easily.
  • Use extraction after collecting batteries from heavily populated enemy zones.
