EFT Tutorial and Guide

Ground Zero is a map rich in loot—if you look in the right places, such as the underground section. It’s a good place to start finding items for building parts of your hideout.

​

In order to know what to loot, you can set the Auto Add to Wishlist option to “Hideout zone upgrade items” in the “Gameplay” settings, which highlights (in blue) items you need for hideout upgrades (click this link to know more about the Wishlist feature).

​

Or, you can simply pick up whatever you find without getting too distracted. Early on in your journey, you’ll need a bit of everything.

​

Initially, you’ll definitely need medical kits and items, ammo, food, and drinks, especially since traders with lower reputation levels offer limited selection and high prices.

​

Over time, you’ll learn to recognize valuable loot and prioritize items that are essential, useful, or high in value.
