Going topside and extracting with the best loot possible is every raider's dream, but it doesn't always go over smoothly. Containers are empty and barren, ARCs rain down hell from everywhere, and there's that one dude camping the extract, waiting to pounce. But you can just ignore all that.
The thing you should prioritize: Security Breaches, a unique type of container spawning around every map in the game that requires a specific trait to be leveled up in the Survivability skill tree. Without it, they're locked, and with them all the ultra valuable loot.
And on the topic of ultra valuable loot, each Security Breach has good odds to contain at least one (or even several) pink, upgraded weapons that can then be sold for tens of thousands of in-game funds that you can then funnel into all sorts of goodies and equipment.
Most players in the game are either unaware of Security Breaches or have leveled their Mobility too much to get them, leaving a ton of great loot on the table. On top of that, Raider Hatches are so broken and a means to extract so much better than elevators or subways that there's no real point in doing the latter whatsoever.
By continuously extracting with lots of pink items and selling them, you can keep purchasing Raider Hatch Keys from Shani ad infinitum, completely removing yourself from the petty squabbles of ARCs and raiders and silently taking all the money with you.
It's a sure-fire way to level up, get a lot of dosh, and brag about it on Reddit. Well, maybe not this last, because you'll end up bringing developer attention to it too much. It's probably going to be nerfed eventually anyhow, so go out there and breach some containers before the opportunity slips away.
