Speed Looting 101: How to Loot Faster than your Teammates

Free American Gamers understands the challenges of having bad teammates take all your loot. Therefore, Free American Gaming Human Resources agreed on the release of the “Speed Looting 101: How to Loot Faster than your Teammates” guide to help you compete for the loot that you deserve. This universal guide can be applied to all games that has loot that spawns or can be dropped during PvP. Also, never forget that all loot was promised to you.

How to Loot Faster

To begin with, you need to master the art of looting fast. In a study conducted by the Free American Gaming Science Corps, they found that the average time it takes for average players to loot is 10.1 seconds. This is absurdly slow and even reducing that time by 2 seconds can give you the upper hand in out-looting enemy players, and most importantly your teammates.

Now then, there are three aspects of speed looting that you need to master. They are developing your Loot Radar, changing your pickup button, and utilizing the most effect movement.

Developing Your Loot Radar

Starting off, it is essential that you develop your Loot Radar so that you can easily identify loot from far distances. You need to have this natural gravitation towards loot. Loot can commonly be found in chests, on the floor, and most importantly from other players. Players tend to carry the most loot so if you want the best loot, you need to be able to identify where these players were killed and how to get there.

Changing your Pickup Button

Secondly, it is advisable that you switch your pickup button in-game. The average clicks per minute of a gamer is 6, or 7. So if your pickup button is on the "E" key or the "F" key, you are clicking pretty slowly. So, what is the best way to click faster? By changing your key bind to scroll wheel, all you need to do is flick your scroll wheel up or down and it will automatically pick up all the loot around it. Combine this with an anatomically superior mouse for the best pickup time.

Now, if you are a console player, unfortunately you are going to have to master the art of button mashing.

Utilizing the Most Effective Movement

Lastly, the final thing you need to master to speed loot most effectively is movement. Take advantage of slides, jumps, and slide-cancelling to move faster towards loot. You want to be there as soon as possible so that you can get the first pickings of the loot that was promised to you.

How to Loot Faster than your Teammates

Now that you have an idea of what you need to develop, it is now time to figure out how to loot faster than your teammates. Now you want to put that into practice. Here are the steps that all Free American Gamers are taught to speed loot faster than the average speed looter:

1. Wait for a player to be killed.

2. Find where that loot is and quickly pick out the most effective path to get there.

3. Make your way there utilizing the most effective movement.

4. Quickly pick up all the good loot, leaving behind the useless scraps you don’t need.

5. Swiftly flee the scene and move on to the next available body to loot.

   
   

Remember to develop your speed looting skills so that you can more quickly identify, maneuver, and pick up all the loot.

Ethical Dilemmas in Looting Faster than your Teammates

Unfortunately, with being the best looter comes interparty issues. Issues such as players complaining about having no good weapons, no good meds, and no ammo. Or worse, complaining that you have all the loot because you are “stealing.” So what should you do when your teammates are complaining that they have no loot? Well, remember this phrase:

"Always Sympathize, Never Give"

You want to pretend that you are in the same boat, despite you being leagues ahead in looting skills than your teammates. Say stuff like, “I know right, I have like no loot too,” or “I wish we had more loot to share.” This will prevent your teammates from blaming you for having no loot and rather blame the game.

Conclusion

To wrap up, there are several methods you need to develop to master the art of speed looting. These are, you need to develop your Loot Radar, change your pickup button, and utilizing the most effective movement. That way you can find the loot, quickly get there, and quickly pick it all up. This will ensure that you will get the loot you deserve before anyone else can steal it from you. Remember that Battle Royales are still a kind of survival game and not having adequate loot will ultimately hurt you.
