I'm not missing the point. Being a rebel is double-edged blade, you can't only hunt and kill without being hunted as well. If you know that maybe someone is camping Therisa, just don't go there. There are plenty more rebel outposts. If you still want to spawn there, then watch your movement. Don't use the garage inside the city, run to the one at the gas station. Don't run in the open, run through the building. Listen for footspets, listen for cars, avoid them. When you arrive at the outpost, scout the area, don't enter immediately. If the vigilantes get radiation poisoning when they enter a red zone, why shouldn't the rebels receive the same when they are not in a red zone? There is no sense, right?
