Highlights

• 💰 Enhanced Lockdown: Prioritize high-value, low-weight items like Classified Documents, Thermal Imaging Modules, etc., to avoid overfilling your backpack and affecting match performance. #EnhancedLockdown #HighValue #LightWeight
• 🔒 Normal Lockdown: Pick up as much loot as possible, leveraging the enhanced drop rates in lockdown zones. Grab lots of Equipment Vouchers and don't hold back—fill your backpack. #NormalLockdown #DropRate #EquipmentVoucher
• 🗺️ Normal Maps: Prioritize items with high value per slot (e.g., CPU Fans, Cables) which are easy to carry even when knife running or on scavenger runs. #NormalMap #ValuePerSlot #KnifeRunning
• ⚖️ Value vs. Weight: When picking up junk, consider both its value and weight comprehensively. Choose items with the best cost-performance ratio to avoid being overweight, which hinders movement. #ValueWeight #CostPerformance #Encumbrance
• 🗑️ Discarding Principle: When backpack space is insufficient, you can discard lower-value junk, prioritizing high-value loot or enemy gear. #Discard #SpaceManagement #Priority
