Loot quickly without losing your squad
Prioritize the items that keep the squad moving.
Use a short priority list
After securing a weapon, focus on armor, ammunition, healing, and utility. Extra attachments are useful only when they fit your current weapons. Avoid carrying several ammunition types for weapons you are unlikely to use.
Share information before items
Call out protection upgrades, spare scopes, and smoke. Mark an item once and keep moving. If the circle is far away, combine loot collection with finding a vehicle instead of sending every teammate through the same buildings.
End the loot phase deliberately
Choose a departure point and regroup with a useful loadout rather than a perfect inventory. After the next fight, replenish the consumables you spent before collecting optional equipment.
Turn it into a repeatable drill
- Armor and utility before spare attachments
- Call what teammates need
- Regroup with a usable loadout
