Woods Map Guide

Woods is open forest terrain with long sightlines. A raid lasts 35 minutes, the map holds 10 to 14 players and there are 20 extracts. Because it is mostly open ground, fights happen at range.

Bosses and Spawn Zones

Shturman spawns at the sawmill at a 45 percent rate and moves with three guards. He carries long range weapons, so approaching the mill across open ground turns you into a target.

The Goons trio visits the northwest Scav bunker at a 15 percent rate. The Cultist Priest appears west of the sawmill or in the rundown village at 10 percent, and Partisan roams at the same rate.

Loot and Keys

Only four keys are used on this map and only four quests ask for one. That makes Woods a map you can run without investing in keys.

The real value sits in Shturman's stash, and the key to it drops from the boss himself. Beyond that, the forest itself is enough for containers and body looting.

Extracts

Of the 20 extracts, 10 are open to PMCs and 11 to Scavs, one shared. Most sit along the edges of the map, so if you get caught fighting in the middle, reaching the border takes time.

Scav extracts such as Dead Man's Place and Mountain Stash are in far corners, so as a Scav you have to pick a direction at the start of the raid.

Quest Route

76 quests have objectives here and 2 are required for Kappa.

15 of them come from Jaeger, followed by Prapor with 14 and Skier with 11. Jaeger quests lean towards hunting and scouting, so they cluster in the northern half of the forest.
