Beginners Can Score High-Value Raids
Highest Difficulty Map, but Big Returns
Enemy NPC and player equipment tend to be high value, allowing for high-risk, high-return battles. Depending on your strategy, you can play while avoiding combat, and even beginners can aim for high-value raids.
Earn Money by Defeating Enemy NPCs
Enemy NPCs carry penetration level 4 ammunition, and you can obtain 20-40 rounds of ammunition from their weapons or rig magazines. Don't loot immediately after defeating them; check for other enemies first. Just by bringing back ammunition, you can sometimes earn over 100,000 Koen.
Pre-Deployment Checklist
Use Light Gear Until You Learn the Map
| Minimum Equipment Value for TV Station | Over 80,000 Koen |
To minimize losses if defeated, you want to keep the amount of money lost as low as possible. Initially, it's recommended to go in with equipment valued between 80,000 and 90,000 Koen. Play repeatedly to deepen your understanding of the map.
Armor Can Be Procured On-Site
Enemy NPCs in the TV Station often wear armor class 4-5. If you're bringing high-spec weapons, going in without armor is also an option.
Bring Plenty of Grenades
Since it's a completely indoor map, there are many situations where enemy players are ambushing. If you hear noises or see suspicious places, use grenades to scout. It will take up rig space, but you'll want to bring a total of about 8-10.
Recommended Grenades
- M18 Smoke Grenade
- Z3 Stun Grenade
- GHO 2 Offensive Grenade
- T-13 Shock Grenade
1x Sights Are Not Recommended
Although it's an indoor map, mid-range engagements are common, making it difficult to aim for vitals with 1x sights. If you're bringing assault rifles or marksman rifles, it's recommended to equip a scope with 2x magnification or higher.
If You Have a Safe Container, Bring Keys
TV Station keys are often expensive, but because it's a high-difficulty map, high-rarity supplies are more likely to appear. It's difficult to bring them back if you're inexperienced, but if you have a safe container, try bringing keys and aiming for high-value raids.
Best Strategy for Exploration
Understand Spawn Locations
There are many spawn points on the first floor, and enemy players may be in adjacent locations. They aren't always nearby, but understanding spawn points allows you to narrow down areas to be cautious of.
First, Explore Near Spawn Points
Being a high-difficulty map, you can find high-rarity supplies even in supply spots other than safes. Compared to normal maps, it's easier to obtain purple and gold rarity items, so actively explore the surroundings.
Don't Approach the Central Control Area
Bosses and NPCs spawn, and there are sniping spots on the east, west, south, and north sides of the second floor. It's a high-tier area with two free safes, but it's recommended to stay away to increase your survival rate.

Extraction Details
List of Extraction Methods
| Extraction Point Name | Extraction Method |
| 1. Wharf | Available 10 minutes after raid starts, activate lever to extract |
| 2. Main Gate | Opens 10 minutes before raid ends |
| 3. Elevator | Press button, extract 150 seconds after elevator arrives (once only) |
Wharf and Elevator Extraction Details
"Elevator" or "Main Gate" Recommended
The "Wharf" has many sniping spots, and extract campers often hide there. The "Elevator" and "Main Gate" are not easy either, but they have fewer ambushes compared to the "Wharf." Choose your extraction point according to the situation.
Prioritize Extraction Above All Else
If you are defeated, you will lose at least 92,000 Koen (entry fee minimum equipment value). Listen for sound cues and act cautiously in areas where combat is likely. If you determine that enemy players are concentrated in the north, quickly extracting via the "Elevator" is also recommended.
