Plan your next Lethal Company session

Our guide helps you master Lethal Company’s core loops, from efficient scrap gathering to coordinated night‑time operations. By focusing on each gameplay pillar, you’ll reduce risk, boost earnings, and keep your crew safe while exploring the moons’ industrial ruins.

01 / THE GUIDE

Efficient Route Planning

Map out a path that hits high‑value scrap clusters first, then backtrack to safer zones. Compare the time saved versus a random walk to see the impact on quota completion.

  • Prioritize high‑value scrap in safer zones before venturing deeper.
  • Use the cash earned to unlock moons with better rewards early on.

02 / THE GUIDE

Radar Utilization

Practice using the ship’s radar to flag traps before stepping into a new area. Note how early detection changes the number of encounters you face.

  • Assign one player to monitor the radar for traps.
  • Keep a walkie‑talkie handy for quick updates.

03 / THE GUIDE

Tool Loadout Optimization

Experiment with different tool combinations—lights versus stun grenades—to determine which setup best handles unexpected threats in your preferred moon.

  • Equip lights before entering dark sections.
  • Carry a stun grenade for unexpected hostile encounters.

04 / THE GUIDE

Night Transition Timing

Run a short mission, deliberately extending the collection phase into night. Observe how enemy behavior shifts and adjust your extraction timing accordingly.

  • Plan to finish collection before nightfall.
  • Use the ship’s terminal to secure exits early.

05 / THE GUIDE

Audio Settings for Awareness

Tweak custom volume controls to prioritize radar beeps over ambient sounds. Record how this affects your reaction speed to traps.

  • Adjust volume settings for clearer radar cues.
  • Enable controller support if preferred over keyboard.
