Times are harsh these days, you know it well. You have to survive by all means, even if those means are not the safest for your health. For example, those stimulants, folks started seeing them more frequently in the region. In reality, it’s a narcotic of some sort, I feel that TerraGroup is involved here for sure.

So I see you’ve made it. How’s your head? Dizzy? Feeling like you’re going to throw up? That’s the side effects of those drugs, you have to pay the price to stay alive, even pay with your health.

Guide
Killing Scavs on Woods is very easy, but now you have to do it while having a stimulant effect. Painkillers do not count as a stimulant effect, obviously, which means you have to use an injection, because it’s the only way to do it. People are taking a slightly different approach nowadays. Instead of using stimulants, you can have a benefit effect. The following three items add the needed status effect:
- Can of Max energy drink
- Can of Hot Rod energy drink
- Pack of Milk
Each one of the drinks above lasts for 300 seconds, which is more than enough to eliminate a whole spawn of Scavs. After you drink one, you can pay attention to the green buff on your head in the health tab. Just hover over it and you can see its remaining duration so you do not kill a Scav without it. Speaking of Scavs, below you can find all of the Scav spawns on Woods.
