Master ALT://R1B1 in GTFO! This guide breaks down the 'Gather Items' objective, enemy types, resource distribution, and offers strategic paths to collect Personnel IDs and escape.

Alright, so you've landed on ALT://R1B1, also known as 'F1: The Nest'. This is where things get a bit more interesting because it's our first real taste of the 'Gather Items' objective. Your main goal here isn't just to survive, but to actively hunt down 12 Personnel IDs (PIDs) scattered across the map. Don't worry, you don't have to clear every single zone, which gives you some breathing room and a chance to make smart choices about where you go.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Objective: Your primary mission is to find and collect 12 Personnel IDs (PIDs). There are a total of 18 PIDs available across zones 39-45, so you have some flexibility.
  2. 2
    Zone Options: You have a few ways to tackle this.
  3. 3
    Option 1 (High Risk, High Reward): Zones 43, 44, and 45.
    1. Start by entering Zone 43. This zone triggers a Class II Alarm, so be ready for a fight. Your main goal here is to grab some PIDs. Crucially, there's a Colored Key in this zone. Grab it!
  4. 4
    Next, head into Zone 44, which has a tougher Class III Alarm. More PIDs to collect here.
  5. 5
    Finally, push into Zone 45, another Class III Alarm zone. Collect the remaining PIDs you need.
  • Option 2 (Safer, but requires more exploration): Zones 41 and 42.
    1. Enter Zone 41 and start collecting PIDs. Keep an eye out, as this zone contains a Scout.
    2. Move into Zone 42 and continue gathering PIDs. This zone also has a Scout.
  • Option 3 (Dangerous, needs the key): Zones 39 and 40.
    1. To access these zones, you'll need that Colored Key you hopefully grabbed from Zone 43.
    2. Enter Zone 39 and collect PIDs. Be warned: these zones are packed with dangerous enemies like Giants and Big Shooters.
    3. Proceed to Zone 40, which also has a high concentration of Giants and Big Shooters, and grab the last of your PIDs.
  • Extraction: Once you've secured at least 12 PIDs, make your way back to the starting point and extract.

    • Recommended Path: For a good balance of safety and efficiency, try this route: Zone 43 (grab the key and PIDs) > Zone 44 (more PIDs) > Zone 41 (PIDs and a Scout) > Zone 42 (PIDs and another Scout). This path usually gets you enough PIDs without needing to brave the heavily infested Zones 39 and 40, and you avoid the Class III Alarm in Zone 45.

    Tips
    • Resource Management: Keep an eye on your ammo, health, and tools. Zone 38 has minimal resources (20% each), while most other zones offer a much healthier 40% Ammo, 60% Medi, and 40% Tool. Plan your engagements accordingly.
    • Enemy Awareness: Be particularly cautious in Zones 39 and 40 if you choose that path, as they are heavily populated with Giants and Big Shooters. Scouts in Zones 41 and 42 can also be a nuisance if not dealt with quickly.
    • Key Acquisition: Don't forget that Colored Key in Zone 43 if you plan on exploring Zones 39 and 40. It's essential for unlocking those paths.
    • Flexibility: Remember you don't need all 18 PIDs. Focus on efficient collection routes to minimize unnecessary risks.
