I've stopped upgrading the hideout. Did you?

[Grumble_]

This will be the 1st wipe I've not bothered to fully upgrade the hideout, The marked up price of construction of the bit coin farm, Scav case and solar power, 

The price to make these hideout items seems way to high, it was introduced as a bit coin nerf rather than nerfing the coin its self, 

Now we have both a bit coin nerf and a cost HUGE increase in mats to upgrade said areas.

I don't see an advantage in fully upgrading the hideout yes with solar but not if you don't have the bit coin farm. There is no incentive.

No, I finished building everything in the hideout like last week. What I have stopped though is questing. There's no point with the level requirement of 71. I only get between lvl 56-60 every wipe.

I'm upgrading my solar panels to them get bitcoin3. Everything is bought already. Last few days have been a paradise, I think 6 days, 60 hours, one report. Also taking a break from the game and doing something with my life while it upgrades lol.

I never started it.

Last season I started 2 months into the wipe. When I was at 50 graphics cards they started nerfing the bitcoin farm to the point that it was pretty useless and cost did not warrant the benefit. 

So this season I did not see the point in upgrading the Hideout. Maybe less fees on the flee market would be worthwhile or Scav timer if you run Scavs...but the skill increase seems to be pointless. I am already 45 endurance and 25 strength. Won't be much longer till maxed without the hideout.

How many hours do you play per day? I have been playing with a FP-100 every day. Started using them pretty early in the wipe, when they were like 70k a piece. Am at 300 hours and 251 raids this wipe and only have 18 endurance, 19 strength ☹️

All my games are on interchange...which I think is the fastest way to build endurance and strength.

You can only get so much skill additional every map. So even though you run more on shoreline, woods, you max out in the same time...so you just waste more time not gaining skill on shoreline woods. So I would say it depends heavily on the map.
