Profiting from drugs if you play solo or have a weak team.

Since the day I was kicked from my team, processing drugs has been a real struggle. I know that there are a lot of weak teams or players without a team so here are a few tricks I use in order to still profit from drugs.

Most of the time, big teams tend to hang around the processors, especially wild grass. If you walk in the base or even say in chat that you are peaceful, they will most likely kill you anyways. Always expect players in full diamond and with guns to be there. I suggest you only bring 1-2 stacks of the drug you wish to process at a time and put the rest in you horse and send him to the stables. Therefore, if you die, you won't lose too much. Using this strategy, I usually go without weapon or armour because I'm expecting a team and even with armour, I couldn't take on a 3+ v 1. Also, if I see a team is there, I try to log and wait a bit before checking again. Then again, if you think you can take on the team, go for it, but I advise against it.

Now, if you managed to enter the processor and no one is there, what are you waiting for? Start processing! If you don't have a good team, you are processing alone and you don't have gear, sheriffs are another issue. What I have managed to do in the past, is when you are processing and you are sure no one else is there, call up you horse and keep him by your side ready to send him back to stables once you spot and enemy. Now, if a sherif walks in, he will check you and see if you have any illegals on you. Since you are processing, you know you will be ticketed. What you want to do is open you horse storage as fast as possible and put in your processed drugs and send him back to stables. Sheriffs can not look into your horse and therefore you won't lose the processed drugs you put in there. You might lose a few stacks of unprocessed drugs if your horse inventory was full, but it's not as big of a deal since harvesting doesn't take too long.

I hope this helped some of you!

 

Thx waffle!!
And yea, that is also something I use but I get tired of holding the shift key for ages and if you have your horse with you it's like a way to avoid the crouching in my opinion.

 

Didn't know that. I'll try it out

 

Just trying to help people out, sheriffs already know about this anyways
