If you go east in the under passages twice pre drill (I don't recommend doing this until you've cleared all the other pre-drill content)
you can find around ~5 zones all with high level hard to kill enemies (lunatics, lurkers, burrowers) with decent loot
(currently replaying game, will likely edit this message with more stuffs)
EDIT: Unsure if its still like this, but in the version last year wIth 4 points effective in throwing you can have 95% net accuracy on stunned or otherwise disabled enemies, instead of 70%
I've been told stealth is affected by things like facing and lighting, so if your in a situation where stealthed enemies are nearby, considering dropping some molotovs or flares in areas where they are likely to pass.
If your on oddity you can get 2 xp before the game even starts by:
1. Going south two zones from the rail floor then 1 zone east, time your path past a ironhead then go into a building to get 1 xp then
2. Going back to the train station area, going two zones north and checking a barrel to the left.
If you have a decent shield up sometimes its a good idea (especially if you have metal armor or high evasion) to throw a grenade at your feet to have a accurate big damage AoE against nearby enemies, I do this pretty often and it is incredibly effective, especially when you have no points in throwing.
This has probably been already mentioned in the thread but if just started and are playing on oddity, while on the way to go find Newton kill all the cave hoppers you see until you get the Cave Dragon Tail (2 xp), its rare and will probably take ~15 kills to get, its alright though because they spawn infinitely.
If your a filthy savescummer you can throw a flashbang at your feet while all the enemies are nearby, this lets you leave combat and save (though you will be flashbanged as well, and will need decent initiative to get the first turn afterwards)
Poor early on? At the cost of ~30 charons (buy them via manual trading with Old Jonas, not the scammer at junkyard) you can enter the junkyard casino (located around 3 zones to the north) and buy membership, then throw a grenade outside and steal the ~300 charons in the guards room while everyone is distracted.
Before doing Silas' final quest, you should kill every scrapper in Junkyard outside the main base, they are going to die anyway via the Eels and killing them now will get you quite alot of extra loot that you would normally not obtain.
