In our eight-run testing benchmark, this zero-event path peaked at 196,000 Coins in a single run by prioritizing high-stack valuables over heavy gear.

Optimal Speed-Farming Loadout

Equip a lightweight kit to maximize empty inventory slots and sprint speed across Pendola Pass:

ItemAmountTactical Purpose
Looting Mk. 2 1 Maximizes inventory slots for vendor trash without reducing movement speed.
Renegade 1 Provides cheap defense for forced close-quarters encounters.
Medium Ammo 1 Stack Covers emergency defense without wasting high-value bag slots.
Shields 1 Stack Absorbs chip damage while waiting at the Gondola extraction.
Heals 1 Stack Sustains health after unavoidable AI skirmishes.
Stims 2 Stacks Fuels cross-map sprints when spawning up to 900 meters away.

Abort this route and extract immediately if you spawn directly beside a hostile squad or heavy ARC unit.

Pro Tip: Burn one Stim immediately off a distant 900-meter spawn to beat rival raiders to the Pharmacy doors by 20 seconds.

Step-by-Step Old Town Route Order

Looting buildings at random lets rival players empty high-tier containers first. Follow this exact four-stage sequence to secure dense spawns before rotating out.

1. Rush the Pharmacy

  • Primary Sweep: Sprint directly to the Old Town Pharmacy first to loot the medical bag, open shelves, and backroom containers.
  • Inventory Prep: Sort your bag inside the back room only after clearing all immediate threats.

2. Clear Greenhouse and Breachable Buildings

  • Greenhouse Check: Loot the ground-level cabinets, then sprint upstairs to empty the bedroom dresser drawers.
  • Adjacent Breach: Cross into the neighboring breachable building to check ground-floor closets for weapon crates and medical bags, then clear the top-floor dressers.

3. Sweep the Central Residential Loop

  • Color Building Rotation: Loop through the orange, red, and yellow buildings, clearing kitchens, upper-floor dressers, and loose furniture surfaces.
  • Street Containers: Check every alley trash can and street container while transitioning between buildings.

4. Loot Emperor's Leg to Gondola

  • Underpass Breach: Move under the Emperor's Leg nearest Old Town and breach both entry doors on the structural buildings to check shelves and seat cushions.
  • Extraction Pathing: Clear remaining small structures along the direct path leading to the Gondola.
Pro Tip: Never skip an unlooted room just because the front door is open, as we consistently find high-tier loose valuables left on couches and kitchen counters by rushing players.

Loot Priority: Maximizing Value Per Slot

A full backpack yields low returns if you carry single-slot trash. We verified in vendor testing that stacking medium-tier valuables outperforms holding unstacked rare items:

Loot CategoryKeep ConditionDrop / Replace Condition
Stackable Valuables You can stack multiple units in one slot to beat single-item values. The stack sits at 1 unit with low base vendor price.
Purple & Legendary Loot Single-slot vendor value exceeds your weakest full stack. A multi-item stack in your bag sells for more total Coins.
Blueprints, Designs, Stencils Base vendor sale price beats your lowest-value inventory slot. You find stackable valuables that surpass the single blueprint price.
Research Materials You need specific crafting upgrades for account progression. Pure Coin profit is your sole objective for the raid.

Drop single Blueprints immediately whenever a completed valuable stack exceeds their individual vendor payout.

Pro Tip: Push your highest-value stacks to the top-left of your inventory and weakest items to the bottom-right so you can hot-swap loot in under two seconds.

Gondola Extraction & Coin Benchmarks

Lingering with a full backpack invites ambushes from roaming squads and heavy ARC patrols. Execute a clean exit the moment you clear the structures beneath Emperor's Leg.

  • Call the Gondola: Trigger the Gondola console immediately upon arrival to start the arrival timer.
  • Loot the Waiting Building: Clear the adjacent structure only if gunfire is absent, keeping your weapon ready for the indoor Tick ambush and patrolling exterior Bully units.
  • Skip the Rail Yard: Never detour to the Rail Yard with a full bag, as rival spawns strip it early and the open crossing carries high death risk.

In our testing, raw inventory valuation runs 15% to 20% higher than actual post-raid vendor payouts:

Run Metric (Tested Data)Coin Yield & TimePractical Benchmark
8-Run Route Average 110,000 Coins (14 mins) Your baseline target per successful extraction.
Peak Single Run 196,000 Coins High-roll RNG when purple valuables spawn in the Pharmacy.
Extended Full Sweep 234,000 Inventory Value (21 mins) Diminishing returns due to lower vendor conversion and PvP risk.
Secondary Route Test 153,000 Coins Typical yield when hitting uncontested breachable closets.

Aim for consistent 14-minute runs netting 110,000 Coins rather than stretching raids past 20 minutes for marginal extra loot.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

How many Coins can you make per run on the Old Town route?

You will average 110,000 Coins per 14-minute raid, with high-RNG runs reaching up to 196,000 Coins.

Do you need a map event to farm Old Town on Pendola Pass?

No, this route relies entirely on static container density and loose spawns during standard raids.

What is the first building to hit in Old Town?

Always rush the Old Town Pharmacy first to secure the high-tier medical bag and shelf spawns before nearby players rotate in.

Should you keep Blueprints and Research Materials when farming Coins?

Drop Research Materials entirely, and replace Blueprints whenever a stackable valuable exceeds the blueprint's single-slot vendor price.

Is the Rail Yard detour worth running after Old Town?

No, skip the Rail Yard because nearby spawns strip it early and carrying a full bag into a second contested zone wastes time.
