How to farm money fast in Lethal Company
- Collect scraps that have more value: Your primary objective in Lethal Company is to collect more and more scraps. However, not all scrap in Lethal Company has the same value. Few scraps will cost more and few will cost less. As you have limited inventory space, it is better to carry the scraps that are worth more before heading out of a facility. In case of two hand items, make sure to collect them at the end to make sure that you can collect all the smaller scraps effectively.
- Do not miss any scrap: You will not come across scraps very easily in Lethal Company. So, whenever you enter any room or location, make sure to press the right button on your mouse to scan the area. After a scan is complete, it will show if any scrap can be found nearby for you to collect. Make sure to scan each and every corner so that you do not miss any scraps.
- Split roles between your crewmates: Strategy is vital to reach the profit quota before the deadline day in Lethal Company. The best team strategy that I personally have found is to keep three players inside the facility to collect scrap and one outside to move the scraps to the ship. The three players will collect the scraps and leave them at a common place outside the facility. The fourth player will keep running back and forth from the ship and move all the scraps to the ship one by one.
- Land on moons with high hazard level: Moons with higher hazard level also includes scraps worth more money. So, if you are confident in your survival skills, make sure to go for moons with higher hazard levels. However, there is a significant risk while doing this, as a higher hazard level means that you will encounter more dangerous and fatal enemies.
- Collect dead bodies: In Lethal Company, you will get fined if any of your teammates get killed. However, if you bring back the dead body of your crewmate, the fine will be waived. So, whenever one of your crewmates gets killed by any monster, make sure to collect their body and bring it to the base.
- Wait till the deadline day to sell items: After collecting the scraps, you can visit the company building anytime to sell your scraps. However, there is a catch in this case. The company will buy your scraps for 30% of the original price on the first day, 70% of the original price on the second day, and 100% of the original price on the deadline day. So, to make sure you earn the whole price, sell your scraps only on the deadline day. However, this can also be a risky step as you will lose all the scraps if your entire crew dies inside the facilities due to any unfortunate event.
- Buy and use useful items only: Items are one of the most important gameplay elements of Lethal Company. While there are a lot of items available for you to buy from the store, not all of them will be beneficial for you. Only buy items that will come in handy for you while exploring different areas. My favorite picks among all the items are Pro-Flashlight, Shovel, Jetpack, and more.
