In Lethal Company, the quota is the minimum amount of any and all scrap you and your teammates must collect to appease the company and help it meet its profit requirements. In other words, it’s the amount of scrap you need to sell to avoid losing the game and having to start over again.

Is there a limit to how high the quota can be in Lethal Company?

Lethal Company doesn’t have a maximum quota. The quota keeps increasing each time you and your team meet it, making the game more difficult because you must find and sell more scrap while dealing with all the dangers on each moon.

What is the highest quota in Lethal Company?

Because there is no upper limit to quotas in Lethal Companythe highest quota can vary based on how often you and your teammates have met the previous quotas. Players have claimed to reach quotas as high as 2000, 3000, 4000, or even 5000, which is quite an impressive feat. However, since they’re incredibly hard to reach, most call it quits around that point or die trying.

Some players in the Lethal Company community have voiced their opinions on the growing quota, asking for additions or tweaks. The idea of a scrap value increase has also been thrown around, but even then, it makes the game theoretically last forever, which creates a separate problem. Nonetheless, tweaks are needed according to the community of players who love the title.

Highest quota record in Lethal Company

Over on Reddit, player Tft0_posted a video with a posted quota of 11,899. After a valiant effort, Tft0_ and his team failed to make up their 18th quota of the aforementioned amount.

What are some tips to help reach the quota in Lethal Company?

  • An excellent tip for reaching a high quota in Lethal Company is to sell your items on the last day. This way, they’ll sell for the highest possible price, unlike selling them earlier when they might fetch a lower price.
  • Another important one is to sell only some of your items if their profit exceeds the current quota. This is because any extra credits won’t count towards the next quota. It’s better to keep and sell those items after the new quota starts. This is especially useful for valuable Lethal Company items like gold bars.
  • Choose moons with higher hazard levels. The higher the hazard level, the higher the scrap’s value. There is a risk to this, entailing more danger regarding monsters, but more risk means more reward. 
  • Collect your teammate’s dead bodies. Retrieving your teammate’s bodies waives any penalty you’d otherwise get for them dying. So, carry the team in more ways than one to mitigate loss.

So, there you have it. You know everything you need about Lethal Company’s highest quota. Enjoy!
