The Renegade scan send squads to reclaim locations and take over sections of the previously Clearly dominated swamps. If enough Renegades were left alive at the top corners of the swamp or any other parts, they may take advantage of ClearSky's weakness that develops if you clear some of their squads off nearby camps or ruins. This is supported by the unprecedented level of organization shown amongst Bandits under Yoga's rule, however, seeing as the Renegade faction does not seem to have a leader or at least one with a speaking role, it remains ambiguous. When one joins the latter faction, they will become neutral with the Renegades, and as such it is unclear what the goal of this faction is: The elite Renegade strike force guarding the bridge to Limns and the one in the Red Forest is distinct from the similarly equipped Bandits in Limns, and one can wonder whether they are in fact cooperating, having perhaps equipped elite units to form a blockade on the paths to the center of the zone, whilst pushing on northward with another squad. Renegades were not seen in Shadow of Chernobyl or in Call of Pripyat, suggesting that they most likely dissolved into the Bandit factions, became Loners, or were completely destroyed.
