Looking for a cold drop? We got you.
There's two potential Buy Station points that can spawn near this village, and from here you can move into Airfields for a plane in the mid-game. There isn't a ton in these villages, but there's more than enough to get started, and I've almost never seen teams drops here, so it's almost guaranteed to be safe. | © Activision Blizzard
This River Village looks from the outset quite basic, and that's why so few people come to it, but It's chock-a-block with loot crates in every hut. And with the Vanguard Royale rules, you only need about 3k per player to get everything you need when the fire sale starts at the start of the third. | © Activision Blizzard
Resort is the new six houses. There's easily enough to get going, and you can pull off safe, co-ordinated drops very easily here. Plus, this is a good point to move out from for the rest of your game. | © Activision Blizzard
Lagoon has just enough loot to be worth it while attracting little attention from others, but what really makes it shine is the Lighthouse in Lagoon. From this vantage point you can cover the rest of the squad with a snipes, safe in the knowledge you can't be easily pushed. | © Activision Blizzard
Runway is probably my favorite cold drop. A few teams will drop here, but they're almost always going for a plane and then leaving. If you stay around, there are good loot houses, two potential Buy Station spawns, and you've got a great location to move into the circle from. You might also be lucky enough to take a plane if they haven't all been nabbed. | © Activision Blizzard
Sometimes it's just not working out for you. Quick deaths, bad pulls, failed gulags - we've all been there. To save yourself the frustration of trying the hot spots over and over, sometimes It's good to take 5 and land somewhere quiet for the loot. You can keep a low-profile, get an easy loadout and work from there. But where should you drop for a quiet yet profitable drop? Where are the best loot locations in Caldera?
If these drops can't help, maybe you need to work on your loadouts:
