Harran prison sucks
It was a fun challenge honestly I beat it for the first time after killing those demolishers that have 5 times the health of normal ones and excitedly I go to collect my loot and WHATS THIS there’s a timer for my time I got to get half my ammo back and not a single weapon because 1 minute is nowhere near enough time to open one hard lock much less multiple hard locks I would be less upset if the game actually told you before you started that you don’t get any time to relax and grab your rewards but no it just comes up behind you for no reason

difficulty = time
normal = 1 min
hard = 2 min
nightmare = 3 min

its not the game, its your difficulty

I’m not trolling I am just genuinely upset about some stuff that makes absolutely no sense in an otherwise great game

I believe the idea is to use the grappling hook, cloak potions, and flares to skip as much of the optional combat as possible, and use guns for the mandatory combat (the cell block with the mercs, the final arena). Headshots with guns/bows are one-shot kills for all but goons and demolishers, but even those only need a few shots..

Any ammo you spend can be replenished in the reward room.


Look up Harran Prison Solo on youtube for walkthroughs.

It's still stupid to have such a limited time on getting the rewards, it really only exists for people to grind endlessly who have nothing better to do

It really punctuates how worthless the end game is. I really enjoyed the story, but after you've completed the story and the expansion and done all the DLC, the endless grind beyond that is just that, pointless grind

The prison run is really meant to be done with friends . A good group can make this run in just over 2.5 miniuts. Then you get a full 3 mins to unlock all the crates & loot every thing else.
With more people unlocking it`s a snap & i`ve been with a group that good. It can be done. HTH.

The 1 min time limit is annoying. Another thing I don't like is if you don't leave before the time limit, you don't keep anything you take. That is just rubbing salt in the wounds.

Actually you don't lose everything. You keep all materials, but not weapons.
The only thing that matters is the weapons and you know it. So it's just more time lost to a truly stupid time limit

It could be made much harder after my opinion, only died once in my first try and after beated it 3 more times in row just to improve my time xD (without dying more times & no medkits used)

There should be added more infected and a few night hunters as well to that zone i think.

Night hunters? You mean volatiles?
Night hunters are player-controlled and exclusive to BTZ, not AI.

For me personally the chests are the only reason to run prison, I can guess it is the same for most. It is the most reliable way of getting gold weapons(and King mods).

There is nothing in the prison that you can't find with a bit of farming in slums/old town. The only "rare" material is stuff like livers and kidneys for the Dahlia's botched potions.

Otherwise everything that is not a chest isn't really important to me(I might open a locker or 2 if I have a few seconds to spare).

What materials do you get in the prison that you can't collect somewhere else faster and easier?
