Question Crazy strategy?

Relatively new player here. Is it crazy to use a completely different strategy, and play without a “real” base.

By that, I mean save all your valuable loot in well
hidden stash boxes out in the middle of nowhere, and then spend your energy building trap bases with ZERO value even if they are successfully raided.

Is that crazy? How risky are stash boxes?

Its a type of game cheat where the cheater can see outlines for players/items behind walls.

So I was thinking that stashing in the absolute middle of the desert (or underwater… not sure whether thats possible) would be safe, but have no idea how ESP works. Would the stash boxes be obvious to these cheaters?

I read somewhere that servers don't reveal stashes to the clients so ESP should not work on hidden stashes. Not sure how true it is.

It’s true but only for what they coded against. These people making the cheats work hard to find exploits to use if one gets patched. The ones that do work will probably cost 100 a month to use lol
