Routes
Each color is one player (or both players in Duo). Stops are numbered in order. Routes are built for looting through the storm.
Carry for movement
Long routes only work if you move fast between towns. Keep one movement slot open.
Gum-Gum FruitRubber powers for getting around S-tier pick
BoatsCross the inner lakes and coast fast
CarsBest on the long road loops
Carry for heals
You'll spend a lot of time in the storm, so stack health heals.
Med KitFull health. Best storm heal Top priority
BandagesStacks of 5, heals up to 75
Chug JugFull health and shield Legendary
Slurp JuiceHeals over time while you loot
Nami's TangerineNew food heal this season
Meat on a StickNew food heal this season
Shield PotionFor fights, not the storm
Storm tip: storm damage hits your health, not your shield. Shields only help in fights. Bring Med Kits, Bandages, Chug Jugs, Slurp Juice and food for storm runs.
Best sprite
Fortune Chester
Shows nearby chests, including hidden chests and Sprite Chests.
Chance of extra loot from treasure chests, which goes up as it levels.
No fall damage, so you can jump off cliffs and bridges to save time.
No drawback. Guides say Fortune variants come from red Ruby Sprite Chests or Wanted Posters.
Skip Cursed Chester: water hurts you, and this map is full of water.
Limits of this plan
It's still luck. At about 1 in 137,500 per chest, 50 chests a match is roughly a 1 in 2,750 chance per game.
The late storm will kill you. Early circles are fine with heals. The last few aren't survivable for long. When you die, queue again.
Chest counts are spawn spots. Not every spot has a chest every match, and guides disagree on exact numbers.
Busy towns get emptied fast. If players land with you at Lantern Landing or Rubber Resort, move on early.
Long walks. Grab boats and cars, or you won't reach the later stops.
The giant chest at The Chest can't be opened. Dig the buried spots around it with your pickaxe.
Fortune's Fort isn't on this map, so it's not in any route.
Squad sharing is unconfirmed. Guides say the whole squad gets special rewards, but not specifically the token.
Zero Build is unclear. Guides disagree on whether it counts.
Splitting up means fighting alone. In Trio and Squad, ping chests and call out enemies.
Item and sprite info is from early-November guides. Loot pools change, so check in game.
