Unlocking schematics in MWZ is crucial for enhancing your gameplay with better weapons, perks, and equipment. This guide covers strategies for farming schematics from Tier 1 to Tier 3 contracts, missions, and the Dark Ether challenges.
Tier 1 Schematics
- Recommended Loadout: Start with a Tonfa (Baton melee weapon) for efficiency.
- Contracts to Focus On: Deliver Cargo, Bounty, and Spore contracts are your best bet. Avoid ACV Escort and Ether Extraction contracts due to their time-consuming nature.
- Farming Strategy: Use the LTV from the Deliver Cargo contract for mobility. For Bounty contracts, the Tona is effective against Tier 1 bounties. Rinse and repeat Bounty contracts as they often spawn in clusters.
Tier 2 Schematics
- Upgrading Weapons: Pack-a-Punch your Tona or swap it for a higher rarity weapon found during your farming.
- Effective Contracts: Similar to Tier 1, focus on Deliver Cargo, Bounty, and Spore contracts. Use ammo mods for crowd control.
- Co-op Strategy: Farming in co-op can speed up the process, as friends can help complete contracts or clear objectives in other areas of the map.
Tier 3 Schematics
- Join Forces: If you see others completing Tier 3 contracts, consider joining them to avoid competition for contracts.
- Weapon Recommendations: Bring weapons suitable for taking down tougher enemies, like the RGL for its stun capabilities.
- Contract Prioritization: Deliver Cargo and Outlast contracts are among the easiest and most rewarding.
Mission-Specific Schematics
- Tier 3 Sabur Mission: Unlocks an uncommon Ether Tool. Requires completing an Ether Extractor contract and shooting down a reinforcement helicopter.
- Tier 5 Chaperone Mission: Grants Quick Revive schematic. Involves completing an ACV Escort contract with specific conditions.
Dark Ether Challenges
After completing the Act 4 story mission and killing the purple worm, you can access classified schematics in the Dark Ether. This involves using Tier 4 Rift Sigils and completing specific challenges within the Dark Ether to unlock unique schematics.
Tips for Efficient Farming
- Use Decoy and Kazmir Grenades: Essential for managing large groups of zombies and completing contracts more efficiently.
- Vehicle Utilization: Vehicles not only provide quick mobility but can also be strategic in completing certain contracts.
- Communication in Co-op: Coordinating with teammates can significantly speed up the farming process, especially in Tier 3 areas and the Dark Ether.
