Scopes

Scopes are invaluabletems that allow players to increase their range of vision. There are five scopes in surviv.io. 1x is automatically equipped. They may be found on the ground randomly, in crates (especially Soviet crates), in toilets, bank deposit boxes, the Pirate chest, shipping containers, and inside buildings. 2x Scopes are extremely common, 4x Scopes are fairly common but not nearly as much as 2x Scopes, 8x Scopes are rare, and 15x Scopes are extremely rare.

Note
1x Scope is forced while inside any building or shipping container or under a smoke grenade. It is useless in most situations. It is also forced when downed in Squads or Duos.

2x Scope and 4x Scope are extremely useful early game, and useful for checking bushes.

8x Scope is extremely useful in all situations, and can be used to easily check buildings. However, it may be hard to see people in bushes while moving.

15x Scope is extremely rare, and useless for checking bushes, but great for checking buildings and in conjunction with long-range weapons like the Mk 12 SPR, M39 EMR, and Mosin Nagant
