Silver
Jackr
Introduction
Silver is an ore that can be processed and sold as ingots. It is one of the first recommended runs for newer players as its payout can be increased with the use of a Worker's Protection License.
Starting the Run
Before starting this run, it is strongly recommended to check the price of silver for optimal profits and to follow the list below to make sure you have all the required equipment.
- A pickaxe (Purchased at gas stations/markets) Required for collecting silver
- Food & Water
- Bergen Backpack for space
- A vehicle to store the silver
- Silver processing license ($9,000 at the DMV)
- Head to the Silver Mine east of Atheria to fill your vehicle and optionally your backpack using left windows key in the silver mine area
Processing
- Head north of the silver mine to the silver processor to refine your goods into silver ingots.
- To process, scroll wheel on the processing machinery inside of the shed, you can either process from the vehicle or from your backpack and must remain 25m of the machine.
- Before pressing Process, it will give you the time required to process. Canceling processing will process items up to the progress you obtained.
Selling
Once you are done processing you will travel to the east to the silver trader. The route defined in the picture below will be the safest as you will need to maintain a safe distance from the Athira Rebel Outpost as anybody you would encounter there would be more than happy to lift your hard-earned goods from the burning wreckage of your vehicle. Once you arrive at the trader who has decided to set up shop in a small strip of buildings on the south side of Arthira, you will be hardly vulnerable as there are stone walls and other buildings to fortify if need be. Fortunately, there is an ATM a stone’s throw away next to the center of town where you will be able to immediately deposit your cash.
Payout
Using a box truck with no storage upgrades and a Bergen backpack (210 silver Ingots) will yield a payout of $427,823 (WPL: $491,997)
Run Time
Using a tier 4 box truck with no storage upgrades, bergen backpack, and Tier-4 turbo this run will take 27 minutes with no real difference with any alternate routes posted in the screenshots. With a processing bonus, the run will take 22-25 minutes.
