Vendors secret stash

[Punkerich]

Trying to get my hands on solar panels and such, read about a 'secret stash'.
Skilled daring adv. to lvl 3, but don't seem to change anything.
Was there something changed between recent updates?
Can't see anything 'secret' at my local vendor...

The Secret Stash at the traders was removed in A21. Forget how it was supposedly balanced out but I struggle too with getting some things. There are some discussions on it in General if you search for it, maybe I will too to remind myself of tje details about its removal and "rebalancing".

Doesnt help, sorry, but youre not alone in the struggle to survive.

Well, it does help, at least it tells me it's not me, oi.
Thanks mate.

I have daring adventurer on max on day 3 and already have quality 6 solar panels in the store.
For 98000 dukes so no chance to buy anytime soon but they are available.
I think it also depends on the trader, each one is now specialised in certain items.

Yuck... dang ripoff, i'd say. So, apart from questing, what's the next best option to make monies? Dismantling cars?

Yeah, use the respec elixir, put all points into salvaging and such and mass salavage everything you can find for a few hours, then sell everything, rinse and repeat.
Alternatively just run quests with max daring adventurer and the bartering skill,
after tier 3 or so you get pretty good loot and always can select 2 quest rewards, then the money train starts rolling.

In my last game i had like 500.000 dukes by day 54 in my storage and nothing to buy with them.
Just kept smelting them in the forge for brass.

Wrench down parking meters while you're out and about. You'll get Dukes and mechanical parts that can be sold.

Wrench down cars like you said and sell parts like batteries, radiator, gas tank, mechanical parts etc.

Craft iron in to dart trap ammo and then sell it.

If you have patience break in to ATMs (or if you have a lot of lock picks).

Wrench nonworking vending machines for dukes and parts to sell.

Most direct answer is probably dismantling cars as you already knew but tons of ways to get dukes. I personally hit parking meters same time I am out dismantling cars "missions".

Thanks for the tips mates.

This game is quite something special, and awesome.
Luckily i'm about to have some weeks off work in the near future...
Imma lockin me up in the basement office with just some cold ones company, hehe.
Cheers!

Haha, awesome. I sometimes enjoy a few cold ones while I play. But sometimes they go warm as I get in to it and forget to drink them 🤣

Earlier discussion on solar cells in A21

EDIT: There's chances to receive solar cells in those Solar Bundles you find too, whether it's quest rewards or from airdrops!
