Car Repair Factory

[Dorok]

Looks like a new random encounter, a Car Repair Factory occupied by bandits. It needs a bit more tuning, bandits was a bit low level, and too much spread, but it was a good fun to have it. Quote there's also plenty stuff to pick at factory, no huge items but many.

This remind me that with 1.08 I got a random encounter I never get again. The area was a bit like a place and there was 2 entrances to an underground full of bandits.

It only appears in the area around and between Otradnoye and the refilling station so it probably is tailored to a lower level. The loot in crates are random btw.

There's also a fortified camp by slavers in the same vein, which can spawn super slavers like the random encounter.

" Super Slaver "... that sounds ominous.

Just had the Repair factory encounter. 7 bandits. Armed with: Kalashnikov's machinegun, 2 scoped SKSs, PTRD, 2 IZ 58s and last one with rusty hunting rifle.

Loot in the was great, including 2x RPK-74. I need to try and get this encounter more often.

Had the slaver camp only once before - what is the best location to try and get it?

[Poppi !!]

I hit this location while doing the " election " quest. A great loot score.

It was badly scaled for my character level 13.

It's much more easy if you're doing it solo - the companions stand in the open like idiots and get slaughtered in 2-3 rounds. There are 3 buildings and a lot of vehicles you can use as cover while sniping the enemies. The guys with shotguns will try to rush you but that's why you have shotgun of your own.
Just remember to bring the car as the loot can weight over 300 kg.

It's really bizarre i got a rather low level spawning, it was quite too easy, fun because fresh new, but weirdly easy. In my opinion the spawning doesn't consider how are spread the enemies and make them lower level because of a larger number.

[JasseBasse]

That was actually a very cool encounter :-)

[Dorok]

Gee I hope I'll get it another time with a better spawning, for once there's a spawned encounter with a lot of obstacles, I have it too weak.

[flushfire]

It's not really challenging even if you get the bandits to spawn to your level because there's a lot of cover and they're too spread out. The slaver camp is better if you want a challenge, I had that encounter spawn 1 guy with PTRD, 1 with SVD + a couple LMGs when I was just level 12 iirc. It's rare though, most of the time there's just regular slavers there. And ditch the camo suit, it's too OP.

I've tried to get another Car Factory encounter today but no luck. Is it a unique encounter or did you guys managed to get it more then once?

[Dorok]

Slavers seem erased from my play, not that I complain because it's just a survival I want finish.

Both the car repair factory and fortified slaver camp seem to only appear once.

[Sithicus]

A pity then. I did liked the encounter.

this playthrough i got the fortified slaver camp but i was only level 10 or so , so i had no real chance to finish it and had to leave. the slave captain would wreck me with the skorpion when he closed in, since there was 3 other enemies in range by that time too. i found you normally trigger the slave camp near the railway crossing just WSW of red fighter
