favourite thing about this map is that you'll see that intact europan crawler actually moving into the position when you'll load into the map and are able to witness it
Me and my friend learned the hard way that if you get hunter killers on this map and you aren't immediately shot at by EOD's, then you have something worse after you...
Yes, Orgamechs spawn on regular Ashen Mesa as hunter killer units. I've ran into at least 4 of them over the course of the Dozens of times i've had to play through Ashen Mesa. As for the Eclipse Varient, I've oddly enough only gotten mother courage ONCE. All other times are upwards of 3 Grabbers (they ended up stealing the Tormentor kill away from me. I jumped on top of one of the wrecks in the center of the map to avoid a cyborg swarm that came after me and I see all 3 grabbers run off into the distance and attack something with grenades flying all over the place.) Edit: If you spawn in at City ruins and look towards the crawler to your right, you'll see it moving into the area, although i'm not sure if it's physically moving or if it's some sort of visual trick
Interesting! I have probably a couple hundred runs of Mesa at this point (naturally meaning a lot less of eclipse) and have yet to see an Orgamech in any of them. With my Eclipses I generally only see one dog on road but have gotten a few of them as HKs. I generally only see one mother courage in the plains but have had a run or two where there were several. Are you playing in a pair / groups?
@@killpo_1 Nope, I strickly play solo, just encountered a 5th Ogramech when I attempted to extract near the bunker. That's where all of them have spawned for me with the exception of one of them being a hunter killer that I ran into coming out of the dust storm on the road walking towards me (I had triggered Hunter killer spawning in earlier in the shanty town by the game spawning in too many "pictures" in the loot crates, I then ran down near where the twin towers were and thats where I saw it coming at me)
As a side note you can climb up on the destroyed crawler from the back (there's a broken rusted steel beam that is climbable but partially bugged at this time) and come in from the roof, just note enemies will spawn if you enter the large door way down the first flight of stairs to the main area right in front of you. You can find a stalker in said room at times, you can hear it walking from time to time but you won't see it as it'll be behind the wall to your left and below so be extra careful and keep a ear to the floor.
Great video, even for veteran players! I've put over 100 hours into the game, but this breakdown helped me identify where to find quest bosses that have often eluded me, especially the Tormenter. FYI, the Desolate Streets extract can be an absolute deathtrap if you have hunter killers after you. There's limited cover and limited space, so it's a recipe for disaster.
4:00 "Our first extract is going to be situated on the top right 'thection' of the map." Awesome easter egg, had to listen 4 times to make sure I wasn't crazy. All hail the power of the hidden lithsp! I personally would have also added a 'thituated' to really accentuate the second implementation and add a rapid-fire 'one two' punch to the dynamic, but you know what? Art is art, ffs sake;
Your vids are great, thanks. I would love a Forever Winter ambience video for sleeping like I use one of those Ocean & Rain ones. No clue if anyone else would like that ^^ have fun Killpo1
Definately a well deserved thumbs up for the deep analysis, artwork detailing the map and sharing strategies. I hope you can do the same with the remaining maps. Keep up the good work. Ashen Mesa is the biggest map we got so far, isn't it?
Youve got solid info here man, Im sure your channel will grow once more people start to see the wealth youve got going. Cheers for the points, as theyve helped me more than once!
I will say this, city spawn with a bunker extract can be hairy. did one where an orgamech was patroling near despawn, we had to sneak past and then run for extract
As for the Bunker, Goldbrick has spawned there twice, in the covered section near the front entrance. Slight spoiler for the timed extract for desolated streets, or maybe just poor luck on my part; I had a _Toothy_ mech land right next to me s soon as I began the timed extract, had to run and wait for the mech to wander past, that got me. XD
Im quite disappointed there isn't a large scale battle happening in the eclipse variant. That skybox really sells the "last battle of humanity" kind of vibe
Word of warning, rats! That Desolated streets spawn can be shieshty if you don’t know what you’re doing. Typically, if I have Eurusk’ footmobiles swarming me, the only thing I can rely on is a Europan drone pair to engage first, and I’m aware I’m still getting shot up! In my top-right container I throw in; • One Advanced Medkit, • Two Standard First-Aid and . 3 or 6 Basic Medkits depending on if I want just one stack, or two for a perfect 9x9 in there initially. I have 71+ carry for my Shaman at the time of writing this so I have my own idea of how much ammo I put into my main pack, but my top pack never leaves the Innards without 5 pieces of food to make a single stack at the floor of that bag. I feel this is a discernible way to help sort loot in the field on the fly. The Scanner’s great. I take one unless I want to leave with two waters. ✌️
Goldmine of valuable intel, thank you fellow scav. You deserve 1 drop of my water.
I say 2

Thanks for this! I needed this to be less terrified to play any other map besides Enclave!
You’ll get the hang of it.
Right I've done all of the unl9cked ones a few times bur mech trench and scorched r like home now

@@4T3hM4kr0n yeah, only place I have seen them on regular ashen mesa is in the gully leading to bunkers extract

Really good guide video ! It's thanks to videos like this that Forever Winter can grow as a community.
Desolated street extract point spawned Toothy once and I spawned load of bricks...
Your vids are great, thanks.
I would love a Forever Winter ambience video for sleeping like I use one of those Ocean & Rain ones.
No clue if anyone else would like that ^^ have fun Killpo1

Ashen Mesa is the biggest map we got so far, isn't it?
This is insanely detailed, good job.
Youve got solid info here man, Im sure your channel will grow once more people start to see the wealth youve got going. Cheers for the points, as theyve helped me more than once!
I want to see one of these for each map! Good job!
Kilpo i genuinely cant say just how much your killing it. Keep it up
Thanks!
Wow. Such a quality. Amazing job.
Can't wait to see all the other maps!
This is excellent, looking forward to more. :)
Sweet, very good walk-through!!🎉
I will say this, city spawn with a bunker extract can be hairy. did one where an orgamech was patroling near despawn, we had to sneak past and then run for extract
This is an excellent guide, thank you so much!
Awesome
brilliant breakdown, gets right to the meat
Orgamechs do spawn on the day version of the map. Rarely guarding the bunker spawn zone when it is the extraction point.
Awesome video! I wish I had these when I first played but I’m grateful your making them for the new players!
Insane Guide! !!!
Nice vid. good job mate.
Hope they add more map and enemies types
Would be great to do this again with actual video footage of navigating to the extracts
Great Video! Can you do a detailed one of where to find the quest bosses?
As for the Bunker, Goldbrick has spawned there twice, in the covered section near the front entrance.

I'd like a video covering all the missions that I should avoid. The broken or bugged missions, like Payback or Hidden Water Pt 1.
Im quite disappointed there isn't a large scale battle happening in the eclipse variant. That skybox really sells the "last battle of humanity" kind of vibe
I have had Orgamech spawn as hunter killer on this map.
I have gotten orgamech on battle variant at the bunker extraction after I kill a lot of enemies. At least I'm pretty sure.
More like Crash Mesa because it always crashes everytime I play
