Tips & Strategy(5)

  • โ—It is a very good class for its price as nearly all of this class's abilities are useful.
  • โ—‹The "+2 sack space" ability is useful as it works with every sack and this means that the old sack spawns with 7 storage slots, giving a good headstart as the player can cut down two trees and store a coal at the start without having to make a second trip. This makes it useful in speedrunning.
  • โ—‹The "Open Chests 20% Faster" ability is not that useful to a normal player due to it being a small difference and not noticeable, this ability only has some use if the player is speedrunning as this can save time.
  • โ—‹The "Chance to get scrap as a bonus drop from chests" is a very good ability as scrap is a limited resource and this also enables players to get scrap easily and quickly at the start of the game, which is very useful in speedrunning.
  • โ—As mentioned by all the points above, this class is very good for speedrunning the game with a team due to the bonus scrap and the extra sack space which makes a huge difference in speedrunning.

Scavenger โ€” In-Depth Analysis

The Scavenger is the cheapest class on the board at just 25 Diamonds, and it punches far above that price, making it one of the best early unlocks for the cost. It spawns with no starter tools, but its perks are all about logistics, and nearly every one of them earns its keep. Level 1 grants +2 Sack Space, which means the old sack starts with 7 storage slots instead of 5, a real head start that lets you fell two trees and grab a coal before ever needing a second trip back to base.

Level 2 lets you open chests 20% faster, a minor convenience for casual play but a genuine time-saver when you're shaving seconds off a speedrun. Level 3 is the standout: a chance to get scrap as a bonus drop from chests, and since scrap is a limited, valuable resource, this turns ordinary looting into a steady early supply.

Pick the Scavenger if you want maximum value for minimal Diamonds or if you're optimizing for speedrunning in a team. The extra sack space and bonus scrap together make a huge difference to early efficiency, letting your squad gather and build faster than classes that cost many times more.
