In no particular order, here are our tips on how to farm cash quickly and easily in WARDOGS.

Spot With Binoculars

Binoculars are an extremely efficient and easy way to earn money in WARDOGS, and the upfront cost is pretty small too.

A basic pair of Binoculars costs $75, with more expensive variants also available, and allowing you to spot enemies, vehicles, structures, and other points of interest, marking them on the map for your teammates.

Spotting an enemy earns some upfront cash, which is met with a bonus of hundreds for a spotting assist if an enemy eliminates them, and it’s an easy approach too, as it doesn’t require deep knowledge or experience with the game.

Revive Teammates

If you fancy emulating Hacksaw Ridge and want a non-lethal approach, acting as a medic and reviving teammates is a quick and efficient way to earn cash.

Reviving speed is fairly slow, however, and it does require venturing into enemy territory, where you know others will be lurking, but the payout is worth it, especially if you can sneak by unnoticed and stack up multiple revives in a row.

You can speed up revives using a resuscitator, and healing allies with bandages also provides a decent cash bonus, before eventually transitioning to the more expensive defibrillator, which speeds up the process even further.

Utilize the Spawn Vehicle

When you drive the spawn vehicle from HQ into the zone, it provides a persistent stack of cash, as you’ll earn money every time a teammate uses the FOB.

However, the major limitation is that this join can only be done by one person, so you may find it difficult to win the race and jump into the driving seat, but whenever this opportunity is available, it’s worth utilizing.

Get to The Choppa

Those brave enough to take to the skies can earn a regular stream of income by piloting a helicopter, which awards cash for dropping teammates into the zone, alongside bonuses if they go on to get kills.

Additionally, you can receive tips from the players you transport, though the major caveat is helicopters are expensive and can be difficult to manoveur, especially when coming under fire from enemy RPGs.

Stay in the Zone

Undoubtedly, the best approach for passive income is to head to the Hot Zone and stay there, which provides a steady stream of cash without much effort at all.

You don’t need to do anything in the zone, but it’s worth noting that any kills and assists in the Hot Zone will be rewarded with a pumper payday, so be brave, and try to nab a few kills to boost your bank balance.

Move Supplies

It may not be the most thrilling gameplay, but moving supplies at any FOB is an easy, and largely safe, way to stack up plenty of cash without much effort, and there’s always a steady stream of work to be done.

With a big backpack, you can stack up a heap of supplies in one go, reducing the amount of time you go back and forth, and receive some handy cash for your efforts.

If you’re just getting started, it’s a decent way to boost your money to push towards a higher level and better gear, though it may become a bit tedious if you do it too much.
