Very Comfortable Pillows are a late‑progression scavenging item. You need three of them for Scrappy’s final workshop upgrade.


Where Very Comfortable Pillows spawn

  • Spawn type: interior loot. Expect them inside apartments, houses, hotels, and shops.
  • Maps: any with dense building interiors. Urban zones like Buried City tend to be efficient because you can chain many rooms quickly.
  • Rooms to prioritize: living rooms, bedrooms, and spaces with sofas or beds.
  • RNG factor: pillow spawns are inconsistent. You may see multiple on one run and none on the next.

If one neighborhood goes dry, rotate to a different cluster of interiors rather than repeating the same building over and over. Swapping to another urban area can break a cold streak.

A simple pillow farming loop

  • Enter a city‑style area with tight clusters of apartments and storefronts.
  • Sweep interiors floor by floor. Open bedrooms first, then living spaces with couches.
  • Keep moving—don’t over‑loot. Pillows are either there or they aren’t; cover more doors per minute.
  • Complete a loop of several buildings, then rotate to the next cluster. Repeat until you secure three pillows.
Tip: Treat this like a route run. The more separate interiors you touch per raid, the faster you overcome RNG.

Gather the other materials (Mushrooms and Apricots)

  • Mushrooms: look in Dam Battlegrounds. Check the Hydroponic Dome’s stagnant water and just outside the dome; spawns tend to alternate between set spots. Also inspect fallen tree trunks in the area.
  • Apricots: gather from natural zones while traveling between interior clusters.
  • World states: bloom‑oriented conditions help with natural resources (Mushrooms and Apricots) but don’t influence pillow interiors.

Plan mixed runs: hit a city block for pillows, then route past natural spawn points for Mushrooms and Apricots on the way to extraction.


Scrappy V upgrade cost and step

Requirement Amount
Very Comfortable Pillow 3

Apricot 12

Use these to upgrade Scrappy from level IV to level V at the workshop. Finishing this tier improves long‑term resource efficiency, so it’s worth completing as soon as you have the set.

Keep your haul safe

  • Extraction matters: if you die pre‑exfil, the pillows don’t count.
  • Safe Pocket: if your loadout supports it, stash pillows before moving to extract.
  • Risk management: once you’ve got one or two pillows, pivot to a nearby extraction rather than chasing “just one more” inside hot zones.

If you still can’t find any pillows

  • Switch maps or neighborhoods. If Dam apartments are cold, try another urban cluster such as Buried City.
  • Increase interior doors per raid. Favor high‑rise apartments and hotel‑like buildings over small single‑family homes.
  • Run shorter, more frequent loops. Multiple extractions with one pillow each are safer than gambling a long, greedy route.

The grind is mostly about volume. Cover more interiors, rotate neighborhoods when dry, and bank progress quickly through extraction. Once the third pillow is secured, complete Scrappy V immediately so future raids pay back faster.
