Farming Quantum Battery in Stalcraft is one of the most dangerous processes in the game. Not quite as dangerous as farming Anomalous Battery, but still. The fact that there is only one way to get them makes them a much sought-after resource. And where there’s interest, there’s bound to be competition as well.
The thing that makes farming Quantum Battery so risky is the fact that they only spawn in Airdrops. That is the only way to get them. Because it’s the only way to get them, everyone and their mothers are going after the airdrops. This is why you have to be properly prepared if you want to farm them efficiently.
Do you hate playing alone? After all, it’s better to scavenge the Zone with a battle buddy by your side. If that’s the case, then you should definitely check out the Z League app. Its LFG feature will help find you a gaming buddy in no time.
Key Takeaways for Where to Farm Quantum Battery in Stalcraft
- Quantum Battery spawns in airdrops all across the North
- The only area in the North that doesn’t spawn Quantum Battery is Limansk, which spawns Anomalous Battery instead
- If you’re a Bandit, you’re most likely going to farm in the Red Forest. If you’re a Stalker, you’re most likely going to farm in Yanov
What You’ll Need Before Heading Out
It’s never easy to farm airdrops, as they’re unpredictable. You can never know where the next airdrop will fall. What you can expect however is that other players will be looking to stake it out. Which is why you have to prepare accordingly.
By accordingly, I mean bring the best weapons and armor you got currently. When farming out in the North, it’s always a smart idea to carry multiple weapon types with you, as well as their appropriate munitions.
When going up against mutants it’s easy, just bring a shotgun with you. However, when facing players, shotguns are a no-go. Instead, bring a sniper rifle and a fast-firing weapon like an assault rifle. These will give you the most stopping power against human opponents.
Where to Get Quantum Battery in Stalcraft
To farm Quantum Battery, you’ll need to claim and defend the airdrops that fall across the North. You might have noticed that Limansk is excluded from the map above. The reason for this is because Limansk’s airdrops give you Anomalous Battery instead, which is irrelevant for us today.
This leaves the Red Forest, Yanov Outskirt, and Backwater as the three potential farming areas. Any airdrops you claim in these areas should contain Quantum Batteries within them.
Farming Quantum Battery in the Red Forest
If you’re playing a Bandit character or are part of the available sub-factions for Bandits, you’re most likely going to be farming Quantum Batteries in the Red Forest. The reason for this is because the Red Forest is the closest to your Fools’ Path HQs.
The Red Forest tends to be relatively safe for your kind, excluding the few incursions here and there from Stalkers trying to get to Limansk. The real danger here is players from the opposing sub-faction.
Farming Quantum Battery in Yanov Outskirt
If you’re playing a Stalker character or are part of the available sub-factions for Stalkers, you’re most likely going to be farming Quantum Battery in Yanov Outskirt. This area tends to be more open and has less concealment than the Red Forest, which makes it a bit more dangerous to farm here.
The fact that it’s located smack dab in the middle of the North is also a big downside, as it is almost constantly populated by other players.
Farming Quantum Battery in Backwater
Farming Quantum Battery in Backwater is unadvised. It’s the most dangerous area in the game. Even if you meticulously prepare beforehand and have a squad of buddies with you, it’s still a daunting task.
However, because of its hazards, this area tends to be the least populated. Which makes it “safer” by a small margin. Still. Just getting here is a challenge in and of itself, which is why it’s recommended to farm in the other areas instead.
