It is possible to farm equipment at Rify by simply traversing the shipwreck, picking up every item you found, and dumping them outside the ship. By the time you finish dumping items, the loot will have respawned.

Steps To Reproduce
- Go to Rify with a backpack
- Collect all loot from bottom to top of ship
- Leave the ship, walk a short distance, dispose of garbage loot
- Return to the ship
- Observe that loot has already began to respawn
Additional Information
This can be repeated infinitely since there are sources of food that spawn very close to the shipwreck. Players are able to get "fully kitted" with assault rifles, ammunition, field jackets, assault backpacks, etc. within minutes and immediately dominate fresh spawns in the area.

I tested this a bit further. I went on the UK8 experimental 1person only server. Went to electro harbour. It has two military containers towards the end that can be opened. Upon looting the insides (just one item each) I then moved about 100m away, next to a red container with a bush next to it. I had a clear view of the inside of one container from there. Loot respawned after about 1 to 2min. Furthermore, in most cases I tested this, the spawned loot in both containers was the same. The same loot spawning in close proximity is something I also noted with loot spawed at boats (IV starter kits, flashlights mostly).
At its current iteration, the loot economy allows looting the same place over and over again by simply removing the loot.
