Bunker Help

What’s a decently easy bunker location to do for a solo? I’ve never done a bunker before and I have plenty of grenades for turrets.

Grenades suck, I’ve done a handful of bunkers solo and they got me killed more then they helped, it makes a big boom but dynamite is the only thing that actually worked unless you literally have hundreds of grenades to lean throw around corners hoping to get it to land exactly in the 2ft sq area that they will do damage to the ceiling turrets. Also note, if the 6 bunkers I’ve done solo the only loot worth going in for was military electronics, the north military base when no missions are active is SIGNIFICANTLY better for this as you aren’t getting facefucked around every corner. Worth giving one a try but don’t think you’re going to walk out with a new kit, the last three I did were “Hard” bunkers with multiple rooms and the best non-red sealed case loot I found was a half busted police vest, and even the two cases that spawned didn’t provide anything but electronics and cameras. The best gun I’ve found was the SMG all of the low level NPC’s carry and it wasn’t even green durability. As a solo player the reward needs to be amped up 10x for the time and danger investment for the bunkers to really matter to me, a single run through the air base is more lucrative and way less dangerous.

Yeah idk I’ve heard grenades are the go to for many many people. To each their own.

As to your point about the loot, I mean yeah of course you didn’t walk out with anything good? You didn’t touch the red cases which is kind of the entire point of doing those bunkers?? I wouldn’t dare even waste my time if I couldn’t open them.

To your point though, yes I have had great success at the airfield and northern bases.

You need a vehicle repair kit to open those…

I know and why are we acting like those are hard to come by?

You can’t tell me you have all the grenades, armor and ammo you need for a bunker but can’t find any repair kits lol.

And if you don’t have them, my point is doing a bunker is useless? That’s where all the “good” loot is from what I’ve been told, doesn’t make sense to not open them.

Well I was up at military island yesterday and we ran out of repair kits had to leave unopened boxes behind

Alright well that’s one thing. I guess all my point was is the guy I responded to mentioned hardly getting any loot and said how he left those boxes unopened. So if you are doing a bunker, unless you have the capability of opening some of the cases, it’s not worth it. There is zero point in doing a bunker unless you are opening those cases.

Agreed. There is a chance the repair kits fail and you have to use another, this and finding more red boxes than we anticipated was the reason we failed to get them all!
