applejaxc 2500 Posted May 30, 2013 So I watched the Pax interview on the 25th... and well, Rocket excites me and we'll leave it at that. ;)What really interested me was 2 statements. 1, he mentioned a "Shock" system, in which if your "Shock" value exceeds your blood, you are knocked unconscious. 2, at extremely close range, it maybe be possible to perform a (maybe?) non-lethal buttstock bash or (probably) lethal bayonet stab. Yay!So here's my plan to get rich in DayZ without firing any bullets.Find a baseball bat, knife/hatchet/lethal weapon, motorcycle helmet, and clothes with a lot of inventory slots.Hide in a low-priority Cherno/Elektro/New City(?) building, that no one wants to enter.Bug a nearby high-priority building with a radio/listen for players.Wait for someone to walk by the building alone with their back to me.CRACK them over the head with the bat until they're unconscious, drag them into the building I was hiding in, then stab and/or hack them to death.And repeat.The Applejaxc 5-step plan for banditry success without shooting. Sneak attacks, people!If tasers are added (please, Rocket!), they'll make the 'Sneak up and knock out' step a lot easier.High-risk enemies (Lee Enfields, assault rifles, AS50s, et cetera) would crumble under my aluminum terrorizer! (bat)In the 2 weeks I spent playing BP, I did essentially this: Hide in a Firestation with a taser, tase whoever comes in, take their car, and either run them over with it or shoot them with it. Works best at night with some NVGs. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cap'n (DayZ) 1827 Posted May 30, 2013 Wouldn't it be easier just to beat them to death while they're unconscious? Or for lolz factor, drown them in the ocean? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

applejaxc 2500 Posted May 30, 2013 Wouldn't it be easier just to beat them to death while they're unconscious? Or for lolz factor, drown them in the ocean?No. I save bat durability by stabbing them. or better yet, not use any weapon; knock them out, then kick/punch to death? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

applejaxc 2500 Posted May 30, 2013 what if they see you first and they have a gun?I think you missed the point of hide. If you can't hide correctly, then you fucked up the plan and don't deserve my knowledge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
