Looter's Instincts
5/5Core value for any extraction-heavy route.
The PvE 86p is the deepest Survival spend of Taxi2g's 86-point set at 40 points, built around one job: bringing the team's loot home. Mobility holds at 20 for basic rotations, Conditioning at 26 keeps fights winnable, and the Survival side maxes Looters Instincts, Proficient Pryer, Silent Scavenger, Broad Shoulders and Stubborn Mule. Best when your squad already has a fighter and needs a reliable carrier.
PvE-oriented 86-point route that balances breach utility, loot sustain, and broad extraction consistency.
