Improved Scavenger

Version 1.0.0 · on the server since 17 October 2026

Four pieces of Improved Scavenger medium armor for players who salvage cars and machines. Their protection matches the Improved Ranger (quality 6: physical protection of the whole set 58.7). The look and the weight class stay the same as the regular Scavenger.

  • Improved Workbench, from the Master armorer 4 skill. Higher qualities at levels 8/12/16/20/24.
  • Each recipe uses up the matching regular Scavenger piece plus the same materials as the Improved Ranger.
  • Repaired with the Improved Repair Kit.

The full-set bonus needs all four Improved pieces; the weakest piece sets the Loot Stage bonus. A mix of regular and improved pieces counts toward the original Scavenger bonus. The bonuses don’t stack.

With the full set you get one extra alloy when you salvage:

What you salvage Alloy
Cars, vans, SUVs, pickups (including older wrecks) Ultra light alloys
Trucks, buses, fire trucks and farm vehicles Ultra strength alloys
Unlocked police cars and military trucks Experimental alloys
Air conditioners and industrial fans Ultra light alloys
Transformers and industrial washing machines Ultra strength alloys

The original random drops stay. The bonus can’t be multiplied with perks or by placing crafted decorations over and over: crafted or bought pieces don’t give the bonus.

For salvage tools (wrenches, ratchets, impact drivers) this is only a technical tag the boots use to calculate the stamina saving. The tools’ stats don’t change.
