Understanding the Scrap Economy in 100 Waves Later

Before diving into farming methods, let me explain how Scraps actually work in this game. Scraps serve as the primary currency for everything that matters – unlocking Classes, purchasing weapons, upgrading your armory, and buying ammunition. The game rewards Scraps through multiple channels: eliminating zombies, clearing waves, opening Mystery Boxes, completing full raids, and redeeming promotional codes.

Here’s what most players don’t realize: the Scrap economy scales dramatically based on how far you progress. Waves 1-10 might earn you 50-100 Scraps total, but waves 40-50 can yield 800-1,200 Scraps. This exponential scaling means that surviving longer pays dividends that completely dwarf early-game grinding.

The currency system ties directly to your progression loop. You earn Scraps, spend them on Classes and weapons, which help you survive more waves, which earns more Scraps. Breaking this cycle by spending inefficiently can trap you in low-earning loops. I learned this the hard way after blowing 15,000 Scraps on weapons I barely used instead of saving for the Engineer class.

Method 1: Survive More Waves to Maximize Scrap Earnings

The single most effective way to earn Scraps is deceptively simple – survive as many waves as possible. Each wave you clear rewards Scraps, and the amount increases significantly with each progressive tier. My personal experience shows that reaching wave 30 consistently earns approximately 3x more total Scraps than quitting at wave 15, even when accounting for the extra time invested.

Here’s my proven wave survival strategy that dramatically increased my Scrap income:

Focus on Wave Milestones: Every 10 waves unlocks a new area and a chest containing Keys. These milestones also provide substantial Scrap bonuses. I always push to reach the next 10-wave milestone rather than quitting mid-tier, as the bonus rewards are significant.

Upgrade Smartly During Waves: After each wave, you select an upgrade for your weapons or perks. I prioritize damage and ammunition upgrades early, then switch to survivability (health regeneration, armor) around wave 20. This balanced approach helps me consistently reach wave 40+, where Scrap earnings skyrocket.

Learn Enemy Patterns: Different zombie types spawn at different wave thresholds. Regular zombies dominate waves 1-20, while special variants (fast zombies, armored zombies, ranged attackers) appear later. Understanding these patterns helped me prepare appropriate weapons and positioning strategies.

Manage Mystery Box Drops: Zombies drop Mystery Boxes that contain weapon upgrades. Early game, I open every box to improve my loadout. Past wave 30, I become selective, only opening boxes when I need specific weapon types, as this conserves time and keeps me focused on survival.

The Scrap differential between mediocre players (quitting at wave 15-20) and skilled survivors (reaching wave 40-50) is staggering. Based on my testing, here’s the approximate Scrap earning breakdown:

Waves 1-10: ~200 Scraps total
Waves 11-20: ~500 Scraps total
Waves 21-30: ~1,200 Scraps total
Waves 31-40: ~2,500 Scraps total
Waves 41-50: ~4,000 Scraps total

Reaching wave 50 in a single run earns approximately 8,400 Scraps compared to just 700 Scraps for quitting at wave 20. The time investment might be 2-3x longer, but the Scrap return is 12x higher. This exponential scaling makes wave survival the cornerstone of efficient Scrap farming.

Method 2: Complete Full Raids (100 Waves) for Maximum Rewards

While surviving to wave 50 provides excellent returns, completing an entire 100-wave raid unlocks the highest tier of Scrap rewards. I won’t sugarcoat it – reaching wave 100 is brutally difficult and requires exceptional skill, perfect team coordination, and optimal Class/weapon synergies. However, the payoff is astronomical.

My first successful 100-wave completion took nearly 3 hours with a coordinated squad and rewarded approximately 25,000 Scraps plus bonus loot crates. That single run earned more Scraps than I’d accumulated in my previous 20 hours of casual play combined.

Here’s what you need to know about full raid completion:

Team Composition Matters: Solo attempts at wave 100 are virtually impossible for most players. I recommend a balanced team with at least one Engineer (turret support), one Wastelander (extra weapons/ammo), and one support class like Medic or Juggernaut. This composition provides damage, sustainability, and survivability.

Resource Management: By wave 60, ammunition becomes critically scarce. I learned to conserve ammo by using melee weapons (Crowbar) on weaker enemies and reserving gun ammunition for special zombies and bosses. The Wastelander class with +25% ammunition at Level 2 is invaluable for late-game sustainability.

Boss Wave Strategy: Waves 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 feature powerful boss enemies. These waves provide the highest Scrap bonuses but require specific strategies. I always save my best weapons and upgrades for boss waves, often retreating to defensive positions and using environmental advantages.

Communication is Key: When playing with friends, communication dramatically improves survival rates. We use voice chat to coordinate targeting priorities (focus fire on special zombies), share ammunition and health, and call out dangerous situations. This coordination has been the difference between success and failure in every 100-wave attempt I’ve completed.

For players serious about maximizing Scrap income, attempting 100-wave raids with an organized team provides the absolute highest returns. Even failed attempts that reach waves 60-80 still earn 12,000-18,000 Scraps, which exceeds what most casual farming methods generate in equivalent time.

Method 3: Unlock and Use the Scavenger Class

The Scavenger class exists specifically to boost your Scrap and item farming efficiency. This class features three powerful perks that directly impact your earning potential:

Level 1: Increase Mystery Box Drop Chance – Zombies drop Mystery Boxes more frequently, providing more weapon upgrades and potential duplicate boxes to sell for Scraps.
Level 2: Mystery Boxes Reroll Duplicates – When you receive a duplicate weapon from a Mystery Box, it automatically rerolls, giving you more useful items rather than wasting drops.
Level 3: Zombies Sometimes Drop Double Scrap – This perk occasionally doubles the Scrap reward from zombie kills, significantly boosting your per-wave earnings.

While the Scavenger class doesn’t improve your combat effectiveness (unlike combat-focused classes like Soldier or Boxer), it excels at generating resources. I use Scavenger specifically during dedicated farming sessions where my primary goal is accumulating currency rather than pushing for high wave counts.

Here’s my Scavenger farming strategy:

Solo Farming Runs: I play solo or with one friend, focusing on waves 10-30 where zombie density is high but difficulty remains manageable. This sweet spot maximizes zombie kills per minute, which directly translates to more Scrap drops and Mystery Boxes.

Sell Excess Weapons: The Mystery Box increase means I frequently obtain weapons I don’t need. Back in the lobby, I sell these excess weapons at the shop for additional Scraps. Over a 10-run session, this generated an extra 3,000-4,000 Scraps beyond combat earnings.

Combine with Codes: Before starting a Scavenger farming session, I always redeem any active 100 Waves Later codes to boost my starting Scrap pool. This gives me flexibility to purchase ammunition or weapons mid-session if needed.

The Scavenger class costs only 30,000 Scraps to unlock, making it one of the more affordable classes. Based on my testing, the class pays for itself within approximately 8-10 farming sessions, after which it becomes pure profit. For dedicated farmers, this represents one of the best investments you can make.

Method 4: Play in Squads for Increased Efficiency

100 Waves Later explicitly rewards team play with various bonuses and synergies. Playing in squads not only makes survival easier but directly increases your Scrap earning potential through several mechanisms:

Shared Wave Clear Bonuses: When playing in a team, wave clear bonuses are distributed to all players. This means you earn Scraps even when teammates eliminate zombies, effectively multiplying your passive income.

Class Synergies: Certain class combinations create powerful synergies that enable surviving significantly more waves. For example, pairing an Engineer (turret DPS) with a Juggernaut (tank) and Pathfinder (skill RNG manipulation) creates a balanced team that consistently reaches wave 60+ in my experience.

Revive Mechanics: In solo play, death means run over. In squads, teammates can revive you, allowing continuation of profitable runs that would otherwise end prematurely. The Medic class with Level 3 perk (revive players twice as fast) is invaluable for maintaining team momentum.

Resource Sharing: While you can’t directly trade Scraps, teams can coordinate resource usage. For example, one player might focus on collecting Mystery Boxes while another conserves ammunition, creating efficient resource distribution that benefits everyone.

My squad farming routine with two friends consistently generates 4,000-5,500 Scraps per hour per player, compared to 2,000-3,000 Scraps solo. The increased survival rates and wave progression more than compensate for any theoretical “split” in rewards.

If you don’t have friends who play 100 Waves Later, I highly recommend joining the official Discord server where you can find teammates for coordinated runs. The LFG (Looking for Group) channels are always active, and I’ve met several regular farming partners through this community.

Method 5: Redeem All Active Codes for Free Scraps

Promotional codes represent the easiest method for acquiring free Scraps with zero time investment. The developers release codes to celebrate milestones, updates, and special events. As of March 2026, here are the currently active codes I’ve personally verified:

LAUNCH – Rewards: Loads and Scraps
XMAS – Rewards: Loads and Scraps

To redeem these codes, follow this simple process:

Launch 100 Waves Later on Roblox
Click the Settings icon (cogwheel) in the top-left corner
Enter the code in the text box (codes are case-sensitive)
Click Submit to claim your rewards

Codes expire without warning, so I redeem new codes immediately upon discovery. The LAUNCH and XMAS codes have been active since the game’s release but could expire at any time. I bookmark code tracking sites and check them weekly to ensure I never miss free Scraps.

While codes don’t provide massive Scrap quantities compared to grinding, they’re completely free and take less than 30 seconds to redeem. Every bit helps when you’re saving for expensive classes like Scientist (120,000 Scraps) or Boomer (100,000 Scraps).

Method 6: Focus on Boss Waves for Bonus Scraps

Boss waves (every 10th wave: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, etc.) feature significantly tougher enemies but provide proportionally higher Scrap rewards. These special waves spawn powerful boss zombies with massive health pools, special abilities, and unique attack patterns.

In my experience, boss waves reward approximately 2-3x more Scraps than regular waves of equivalent number. Wave 30’s boss provides roughly 400-600 Scraps, while wave 29 might only yield 150-200 Scraps. This differential makes boss wave performance critical for Scrap optimization.

Boss Wave Preparation Strategy:

Save Your Best Weapons: I always ensure I have full ammunition for my highest-damage weapons before entering boss waves. This usually means avoiding unnecessary Mystery Box weapon swaps on wave 9, 19, 29, etc., to maintain my optimal loadout.

Coordinate Upgrades: The post-wave upgrade screen before boss waves is crucial. I prioritize damage-boosting upgrades (increased gun damage, critical hit chance, fire rate) specifically for these challenging encounters.

Use Environment: Boss waves often occur in new areas that unlock every 10 waves. I scout these areas for defensive positions – corners, elevated platforms, chokepoints – that limit boss mobility and give me tactical advantages.

Focus Fire: In team play, coordinating damage on the boss rather than splitting attention between the boss and regular zombies dramatically speeds up wave completion and reduces risk of failure.

The Pathfinder class with Level 3 perk (Boss waves always offer 2 Super Skills) synergizes perfectly with boss wave farming. These Super Skills provide game-changing buffs that make boss encounters significantly easier while boosting your Scrap earning potential.

Method 7: Optimize Your Weapon Upgrade Strategy

How you spend Scraps on weapons and upgrades directly impacts your ability to earn more Scraps. Poor investment decisions create a vicious cycle where you can’t progress far enough to earn substantial rewards. Strategic spending breaks this cycle and accelerates your farming efficiency.

Here’s my proven weapon investment strategy:

Prioritize the Weapons Shop Early: The Weapons shop in the lobby allows purchasing better base weapons using Scraps. I invested my first 10,000 Scraps into upgrading my starting Pistol and purchasing a better primary weapon. This immediately improved my wave 1-20 clear speed, resulting in more total Scraps per session.

Use the Upgrade Shop Strategically: The blue-colored Upgrade shop (next to the Weapons shop) enhances your weapon stats permanently. I focus on upgrading my most-used weapon first rather than spreading Scraps across multiple weapons. Maxing out one weapon provides better returns than mediocre upgrades to several weapons.

Don’t Neglect Ammunition Purchases: Running out of ammunition mid-wave forces you to rely on the basic Crowbar, dramatically reducing your DPS and wave clear speed. I keep my primary weapons fully stocked with ammunition purchased from the shop, treating it as an investment rather than an expense.

Balance Spending vs. Saving: It’s tempting to hoard Scraps for expensive classes, but having zero invested in weapons means earning Scraps extremely slowly. I follow a 60/40 rule – 60% of earnings go toward immediate weapon/ammo needs, 40% saved for classes. This balance maintains progression while building toward long-term goals.

The weapons you choose also matter significantly. Based on extensive testing across different weapon types, I’ve found these provide the best Scrap farming efficiency:

Assault Rifles – High DPS, good ammunition efficiency, excellent for waves 15-40
Shotguns – Devastating close range, perfect for defending chokepoints, ammunition-intensive
SMGs – Fastest fire rate, great for clearing large zombie groups, moderate ammunition usage

Avoid spreading your Scrap investments too thin. Focusing on mastering 2-3 weapon types and upgrading them fully provides better results than owning every weapon at base level.

Method 8: Farm Mystery Boxes Efficiently

Mystery Boxes drop from defeated zombies and contain random weapons, weapon upgrades, or occasionally Scrap bonuses. While you can’t directly control what they contain, you can optimize your Mystery Box farming strategy to maximize Scrap value.

Selective Box Opening: Not every Mystery Box is worth opening. In early waves (1-15), I open everything to build my arsenal. Past wave 20, I only open boxes when I specifically need a weapon upgrade or see the glowing “rare” indicator. This saves time and prevents inventory clutter.

Sell Duplicate Weapons: When Mystery Boxes grant weapons I already own or don’t use, I return to the lobby and sell them at the shop. Depending on weapon rarity, this generates 500-2,000 Scraps per sale. Over multiple sessions, this “junk” becomes a significant Scrap source.

Scavenger Class Synergy: As mentioned earlier, the Scavenger class dramatically increases Mystery Box drop rates and rerolls duplicates. When combined with high-kill-count waves (15-35), this class can generate 15-20 Mystery Boxes per run compared to 8-10 normally.

Time Your Box Collection: I’ve noticed that Mystery Boxes disappear after a short period if not collected. In intense combat situations, I mark box locations mentally and collect them during lulls between zombie waves rather than mid-combat. This prevents deaths caused by distraction and ensures I don’t miss valuable drops.

One underutilized strategy is deliberately farming waves 25-35 repeatedly. These waves feature high zombie density without overwhelming difficulty, creating an optimal environment for Mystery Box accumulation. I can clear waves 25-35 in approximately 15-20 minutes and collect 10-15 boxes, which translates to 3,000-5,000 Scraps worth of weapons and upgrades per session.

Advanced Tips for Maximum Scrap Efficiency

After hundreds of hours mastering Scrap farming, I’ve discovered several advanced techniques that separate casual players from Scrap millionaires:

The Daily Login Bonus: 100 Waves Later rewards players for consistent daily logins with free Scraps and Keys. I never miss a day, even if I only have time for a quick 5-minute session. These bonuses accumulate significantly over weeks.

Invest in the Engineer Class Early: The Engineer class can be obtained completely free by logging in for 7 consecutive days. This S-tier class provides an immortal turret that dramatically improves your solo survival capability, enabling you to reach higher waves and earn more Scraps. Missing a day resets your progress, so I set phone reminders to ensure I never break my streak.

Learn Which Classes to Avoid: Not all classes provide equal value. Based on my testing, Warrior (melee focus), Scientist (recently nerfed), and Scavenger (non-combat) offer poor returns for Scrap farming unless you’re using very specific strategies. I recommend saving your Scraps for S-tier classes: Wastelander, Pathfinder, and Engineer.

Utilize the Wastelander +1 Hotbar Slot: The Wastelander’s Level 1 perk grants an additional weapon slot, allowing you to carry three weapons simultaneously. This flexibility dramatically improves your adaptability across different wave types and boss encounters, reducing deaths and increasing average wave completion.

Time Your Skill Selections: The Pathfinder class with Level 2-3 perks gives you chances to select Super Skills (extremely powerful buffs). I always pick these over normal skills, as they provide game-changing advantages that enable reaching wave 50+ consistently.

Monitor the Meta: The developers regularly update 100 Waves Later with balance changes, new classes, and economy adjustments. Following the official Roblox game page and the developer’s social media ensures you’re always using current optimal strategies rather than outdated methods.

Common Mistakes That Waste Your Scraps

Through my journey and observing hundreds of other players, I’ve identified critical mistakes that severely hinder Scrap accumulation:

Buying Classes Before Weapons: New players often rush to purchase classes immediately without adequate weapons to support them. A skilled class with terrible weapons performs worse than a basic class with upgraded weapons. I always ensure I have at least two fully upgraded weapons before investing in expensive classes.

Quitting Runs Too Early: The exponential Scrap scaling means that every additional wave you survive provides disproportionately higher rewards. Players who quit at wave 15 consistently earn a fraction of what they could by pushing to wave 20. The extra 5 waves might take 10 more minutes but double your total Scraps.

Ignoring Team Play: Solo players earn 30-50% less Scraps than coordinated teams in equivalent time periods. The survival bonuses, revive mechanics, and class synergies make team play dramatically more profitable. If you’re grinding solo, you’re leaving substantial Scraps on the table.

Not Using Codes: I’ve met players with 50+ hours who never knew codes existed. These free rewards require literally zero effort and can provide thousands of Scraps instantly. Always check for active codes before starting farming sessions.

Poor Ammunition Management: Running out of ammo mid-wave forces reliance on the weak Crowbar, reducing your DPS by 70-80%. I always maintain a reserve of ammunition for my primary weapons, treating it as essential infrastructure rather than optional expense.

Spreading Upgrades Too Thin: Upgrading every weapon to Level 1-2 provides minimal benefit compared to maxing out your favorite weapon. I’ve found that a single Level 5 upgraded weapon outperforms three Level 2 weapons in all scenarios that matter.

FAQ

How many scraps do you get per wave in 100 Waves Later?

Scrap rewards scale exponentially with wave number. Early waves (1-10) reward approximately 15-30 Scraps each. Mid-game waves (20-30) provide 80-150 Scraps each. Late waves (40-50) can yield 200-400 Scraps per wave. Boss waves (every 10th wave) provide 2-3x standard rewards. On average, a complete run to wave 50 generates approximately 8,000-10,000 total Scraps.

What is the fastest way to earn Scraps in 100 Waves Later?

The absolute fastest method is completing full 100-wave raids with a coordinated team, which can earn 20,000-25,000 Scraps in 2-3 hours. For more realistic farming, playing in squads and consistently reaching waves 40-50 generates 4,000-5,500 Scraps per hour. Combining this with the Scavenger class and active code redemption maximizes efficiency.

Which class is best for farming Scraps?

The Scavenger class is specifically designed for Scrap farming with perks that increase Mystery Box drops and zombie Scrap drops. However, for practical farming that balances speed and earnings, the Wastelander class provides superior results due to improved combat effectiveness allowing higher wave progression. The Engineer class also excels due to its free turret providing sustained DPS that enables solo players to reach profitable late waves.

Can you trade Scraps with other players?

No, 100 Waves Later does not support direct player-to-player Scrap trading. All Scraps must be earned through gameplay or promotional codes. This prevents exploitative trading and maintains economy balance.

Do Scraps carry over between game sessions?

Yes, all Scraps you earn are permanently added to your account and persist across all sessions. Scraps are never lost unless you spend them at shops or on class unlocks. This allows you to save toward expensive purchases across multiple gaming sessions.

How often do new codes release?

New codes typically release during major game updates (approximately every 2-4 weeks), when the game reaches player milestones (concurrent player count records), and during special events or holidays. Following the official Discord and Roblox group ensures you never miss new code releases.

What’s the most expensive item in 100 Waves Later?

As of March 2026, the most expensive class is the Scientist at 120,000 Scraps, followed by Boomer at 100,000 Scraps. High-tier weapon upgrades to Level 5 can also cost 15,000-20,000 Scraps each. Planning major purchases around these price points helps with long-term Scrap budgeting.

Is solo or team play better for Scrap farming?

Team play consistently outperforms solo farming by 30-50% in equivalent time periods. The combination of shared wave bonuses, revival mechanics, and class synergies enables teams to reach higher waves more reliably, resulting in significantly more Scraps. However, solo play with Scavenger or Engineer classes remains viable for players who prefer independent grinding.

How long does it take to unlock all classes?

Unlocking all classes requires approximately 600,000-700,000 total Scraps. Using optimal farming methods (team play, wave 40-50 consistency, code redemption), this takes approximately 120-150 hours of focused gameplay. Casual players might require 200-300 hours to accumulate this amount.

Final Thoughts

Mastering Scrap farming in 100 Waves Later transforms the game from a frustrating grind into an efficiently rewarding experience. The combination of smart wave progression, strategic class selection, coordinated team play, and proper resource management has allowed me to accumulate over 500,000 Scraps and unlock every class in the game.

Remember that Scrap farming is a marathon, not a sprint. Focus on gradual improvement – surviving one more wave each session, learning enemy patterns, and optimizing your loadouts. These incremental gains compound dramatically over time, resulting in exponentially higher Scrap earnings.

The key insight that changed my approach was understanding that time invested in improving survivability (better weapons, strategic classes, team coordination) pays exponentially better dividends than mindlessly grinding early waves. Investing your first 50,000 Scraps wisely creates a foundation that enables earning your next 50,000 Scraps in half the time.
