Where to establish in coastal highway
Hi all, i just came from mistery lake well dressed in furs and fed up. Basically i owned mistery lake, but now i want to move to ch. Not the first time i try it, but wolves always had my guts to eat. I mostly tried to make the quonset gas station my base, but the wolves spawn there is insane on stalker, plus i'm not good enough with my bow. Where should i establish my base? (i don't like jackrabbit island cause the house is too dark to see my stuff). I'm on log sort now, i wanted to give it a try, but the house is burned down sadly.

Any house with a fireplace with good fields of vision around it. One I liked was across the road from the Quonset gas station, toward the coast. Fireplace, lots of storage, no corpses inside.

The fishing camp used to be my favorite however, I have died twice now to wolves that didn't used to be there. Ouch. Also the bear is a big problem.

QGS Imo is the best place.

Thank you all for the suggestions! I moved into jackrabbit island, but i'm thinking to move to misanthrope island next.. I like that house much more. There's also a house in the waterfront cottages with a fire pit indoors which i like.. Is misanthrope safe? Does the bear spawn there often?

Bear has a cage under misantrhrope. And other island doesnt have rabbits on it. qgs is mostly suicide. but in front of rabbit island at the coast also there is a workbench. So use both islands and coast fishing camps. but only rabbit island is enough.

QGS is pretty manegable once you learn the spawn areas for the wolves. If you manage to kill a few of them, just make sure to not fully harvest them so the body stays for several days, preventing new ones from spawning.

I'll try it when i'll be more skilled with my bow.. I just went there for loot, and got attacked... I prefer misanthrope or lycanthrope island, it's quite there.. But thanks everyone for the tips

Fishing Camp.

Lots of wood, fishing hut near, bench (outdoor, but OK), some bechcombing near.
Can cook in porch or under pier in bad weather or near fishing hut.
Deers at hand, 2 wolves and 1 bear for skins if need. :steammocking:

BTW - In Test Branch don't use containers, lockers, case... inside cabins, 2 of these bugged in my game and vanished with itens.

+ the rabbit spawn near the bridge, the outdoor bench is also useful to prevent cabin fever.

Luckily i haven't got any problems with the lockers there in two different stalker runs, but i hope they fix the issue.
PowerOn and Emperor of Latrinia , sharing information is great but please do not post comments about the Test Branch outside of the Test Branch sub forums.

Alright, that one slipped somehow through.

Not exactly, in Misanthropes a wolf patrol near chale, in Jackrabbits not wolf at all. :steammocking:
