How to gather Scrap? | Information about the game world Mad Max Guide

You will find valuable Scrapulances in camps.

Scrap is the most valuable resource in Mad Max. It allows you to upgrade the Magnum Opus vehicle and to buy upgrades for Max that makes him more resistant and deadly. You can collect Scrap in many places and in various ways. Below you will find few propositions how you can quickly gather large amounts of Scrap.

1. Claim enemy camps. It's one of the best and most efficient ways of earning Scrap. In each camp you will find many chests which makes exploring the territory very profitable. However, the more important thing is that all conquered camps are generating some amounts, usually around 20 pieces, of Scrap automatically. This amount is added to your supplies. One camp doesn't make large difference, but if you obtain more of them, you will regularly receive large amounts of Scrap without having to meet any additional conditions. A camp that you have conquered once will remain controlled by your allies, enemies can't reclaim it.

Looks like a common car, yet it is worth 500 pieces of Scrap.

2. Capture Scrapulances. They are special vehicles which backs are filled with Scrap. Finding such car is hard, it happens rarely. Because of that, whenever you notice a specific icon above a car that is passing by, follow him and shoot the tires or kill the driver without destroying the vehicle itself. If you manage to capture a Scrapulance and deliver it to the closest stronghold in one piece, you will receive around 500 pieces of scrap. You can also find Scrapulances in some camps.

If a chest is "escaping" from you, catch it with a harpoon, it won't fly any further.

3. Open the chests during a storm. The storms are dangerous and it is easy to die during them, but the chests that are thrown during them are very valuable and worth the risk. If you remain outside friendly camp or a Stronghold during storm, new icons will be added to the map. They will inform you about the location of closest chests. Successful attempt at finding them (watch out, as wind can easily move them from one place to another - use harpoon to hold a chest) and opening them will result in parts of Scrap dropping around. Each of them is worth about 100 pieces of scrap. This can make each storm very profitable as long as you manage to open few chests (you can also find them after a storm. Sadly, they disappear later).

4. Search the Scavenging locations. There are many of them on the map. Additionally, you can discover their location after building the Survey crew in the Stronghold. You won't find large amounts of Scrap in those places, but early in the game visiting few of them will be definitely a good idea. In some scavenging locations you can also find Scrap pallets, collecting them gives you around 50 pieces of Scrap.

5. Invest Griffa tokens in "Volition" ability. Thanks to that, each time you collect Scrap the amount you receive will be increased due to the bonus added by that ability.

6. Construct upgrades in Strongholds. Scrap crew will automatically collect Scrap for you while you're not in the game. Each time you return to the game, additional Scrap will be added to your account. Cleanup crew will gather Scrap from the remains of vehicles that you destroyed near the Stronghold upgraded with that project.

Some encounters will immediately reward you with some Scrap.

7. Complete Scavenger encounters and Loot encounters. There aren't too many of them on the map, but usually, immediately after going to an encounter location, you will receive around 50 pieces of Scrap.

8. Destroy enemy vehicles and Scarecrows. Each of them will drop some Scrap. You can also loot it from the bodies of killed enemies. The amounts received aren't large, but Scrap is valuable during the whole game, and until you claim large numbers of camps, every amount of scrap counts.
