Is it worth it? (Looting guide)

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I have been playing dayz for a few weeks and have gotten a pretty experienced player. Here is my guide to loot successfully and effectively. Here I will explain how to stay in the game and keep your tail up high in five steps for each loot site.

--Barns/deer stands--

1: ALWAYS check your surroundings. Think you are being followed.

2: Stay low, don't get found, don't be stupid. Pretend every moment could be your last.

3: Go slowly try to get past any zombies, you can go pretty close to zombie while prone.

4: Have a backup plan, things go south quickly in dayz main plan is loot one main/secondary weapon and some food, water, and ammo

5: GET OUT OF THERE, in this game I have found you never stick around, it's pretty bad luck

Small houses in towns

(Only one step)

1: AVOID THESE YOU WILL MAKE TOO MUCH NOISE GETTING IN

Chopper crashes

1: MOVE SLOWLY, a sniper may be watching at all times

2: Crawl around the whole thing so you can find everything in the crash

3: Take only what you need do not grab empty cans

4: Move slowly away from the crash

5: Run off into the woods when at a safe distance

Big houses inside town

1: Loot fast and stay down

2: Loot quickly but watch closely don't try to miss anything

3: Watch your step, stay away from the rooftop and windows

4: there is not loot on the roof skip it and get away from it

5: let the tension cool down before going back into town

Outhouses

1: look every where in them, their small

2: Check to see if you can grab only good things

3: Move out quickly and only make a sound

4: stay low when approaching hills near the outhouses

5: enjoy the loot you just grabbed

*Update*

Hospital

1:throw a can at the glass to break it

2: hide until tension cools down

3: run in and loot very fast, don't stop

4: watch out zombies are everywhere but so is loot

5: escape ASAP a player might be coming next

Medical tents

(Three steps)

1: move in fast but without being seen

2: keep your fat head down it could be blown off any second

3: escape quickly and quietly, so you won't get spotted.

Good tips, and they're not nessarily useful for just those buildings. Stay low and be quick are words to live by.

I think the guide is good for new players. For anybody else, this should be conclusions through experience.

Big houses inside town

1: Loot fast and stay down

2: Loot very slowly don't try to miss anything

One thing though: What is it now? FAST? OR SLOW?

The title is a bit misleading, I thought it was going to be about what loot was worth taking. A guide is needed for new players about that, like for example razors are currently pointless loot.

Ok guys you got that part wrong, stay in a crouch to move a bit faster but always check every corner for loot, go quickly, don't do anything stupid...

Well true i will add thanks for saying something!!

- This is what I have found to last me and help me survive very well here are my personal tips on what to grab and is it worth it?

- As Tajjuk said razors are useless!

- Water is the best in the long run soda should be a 'right here right now' thing because you can fill up empty water bottles at many different water sources

- When in a barn try to get two hatchets if there is no firearm, use one and have the other in the tool belt

- Anywhere try to find a new bag. With a better bag you can stuff more things in

- here is a is it worth it moment you see a double barrel shotgun and you have a lee enfield... I would keep your lee enfield because it makes the same amount of noise as the shotgun but can hit at much larger range.

- If you see a silenced weapon, yeah it's worth it their not common.

Hmmm what did i miss.... Oh yeah the TOTALLY not worth grabbing

-empty whiskey bottles

-razors

-empty cans

-etc...

Some 'have to have' items are my personal favorite

-C4

-Grenade

-Silenced weapons

-Snipers

-Gille suit

-anything better than coyote patrol!

-ammo

-food

-water

-pain killers

-heat packs

-bandages

-(only with friend) Blood bag

This is in the new player forums to help them out, slow is the key. You have to check every corner. I made a problem there by saying to move slow, what I mean is dont flat out sprint... Give it time and crouch or go prone to not be killed by a sniper trying to get kills

Well the comments are no longer thank-you's but rather rude and pointing out my simple mistake. I'm still asking for questions though
