- 1Acquire Thermal Scopes: Thermal scopes like the T-7 or FLIR RS-32 are essential. They can be found as rare loot, purchased from the Flea Market, or obtained through trader loyalty levels.
- 2Equip and Use: Mount the thermal scope on your weapon. When aiming down sights, you'll see heat signatures of enemies and other living creatures.
- 3Night Raid Tactics: Use the thermal scope to scan dark areas, identify enemy positions before they see you, and track movement. Be aware that the scope has a limited field of view and can be affected by environmental factors.
