Here's a rifle guide to I-16 as was requested in game.
Spawn points are in green. The NW corner is a particularly hidden location that the mobs tend to pile up in after a few hours hunting.
Fall back to the bunker at the yellow spot if you need to.
The GoGu at the back of Cajun Uplink is a short hop at the blue spot.
The ASG makes it much easier to travel there from racetrack (in case the grs are locked), the second pic shows a pretty safe route.
Hunting with a glider from the hilltops is also a good strategy here.
You are more then welcome to the ammo and first aid kits in the bunker boxes, I usually leave lots of loot there for recycling as well.
I have been ambushed there a few times, but it is mostly quiet these days (maybe not so much after this post, lol)

don't you loot the corpses? I mean the most important reason for firemobbing is farming techs, shooting from hilltops seems counterproductive then?

That said, how much xp/hour do you get just shooting mobs in that zone?

edit: ps. might want add this guide to the wiki page: http://wiki.techhaven.org/I_16 it might otherwise get lost in this forum

Easy, glide down, loot, fly to next position. It's not about productivity, it's about fun.

XP per hr, yeah well, again it's not a race, it's a hunt that counters rl stress and provides entertainment that's immune to the cheaters :)

really wasn't meant as a criticism. I personally prefer an area somewhat closer to crp, where all the mob spawns can be visited in an eternal circle. I think I might actually go hunt there, as you say it is somewhat relaxing, and it doesn't involve cheaters much.

Just be careful if you zone directly into the NW corner of I_16 from Cajun, mobs like to camp that zone line...
