Vampiregnu46 2 Posted July 28, 2013 Im pretty new to DayZ, I would like to become a bandit, (I find so many level 1 bandit housing plans) but also because for some odd reason I have a remorse for when I kill someone. But today I was in a house with a double barrel 12 gauge shotgun. I looted the house than went downstairs into a room I briefly entered the room and turned around this guy was standing there with a Makarov. I pulled up my shotgun and shot him once in the chest and he one shotted me with the pistol. Any tips to be a better bandit and feel no remorse for the people I kill? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Firestarisdabomb12 9 Posted July 29, 2013 Don't look them in the face when you shoot them. Just turn your head away with alt and shoot. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DemonGroover 8836 Posted July 29, 2013 Level 1 bandit housing plans?? What is this - a government project for people who cant shoot others? Sounds very lame, but to each their own. Sorry, back on topic - better bandit eh? 95% of "bandits" just shoot people - not really much banditry involved tbh. If you want to be actually be a better bandit get yourself a gimmick. In Standalone i plan on becoming the gas mask wearing underpants bandit. I will rob all jeans from players and make them run pantless through the countryside while i take pot shots at them. If they make it to the treeline they live, if not, oh well. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any tips to be a better bandit and feel no remorse for the people I kill?I say remorse is very good to have, its what keeps you from being a asshole who kills for no reason. You should always have remorse when killing someone, except for a bandit, since you just ruined his in-game life (He has to respawn, spend 1-2 hours to find the basic stuff, and then if he had more crap on him, he will have to spend more hours on finding it, maybe days). If you had a DB Shotgun, you should have immideatly retreated after taking a shot. The gun doesn't do too much damage, and has a very slow firerate, so it's best to do hit-and-run attacks with it. About being a better bandit, it's always good to make a friend as a bandit (Unless you already have a friend to play DayZ with). You can trick other survivors by saying you're friendly and then backstabbing them, but this is sort of an unhonorable banditing method. For more advanced bandits, you can always stalk someone if he doesn't have anything on him that you need. You can see this by identifying what tier his backpack is at and weapon. If he has a hatchet/makarov and a bad backpack, he probably doesn't have anything for you. With this method you can let him "loot for you" until he has enough stuff that you're ready to kill him for. Robbing people might also be a good idea, you tell them to drop everything they have and take what you need, they can have the stuff they don't need back, and you might encounter them again, to get their new stuff. Basically you'll risk being a bit more in danger with more geared players, but you'll get more gear yourself. Edited July 29, 2013 by dollon 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nos120511 15 Posted July 30, 2013 Just remember that if the tables were turned and it were you with the pistol and him with the shotgun when you turned around, he would have been the one who killed you. A lot of people are ruthless in this game and he wouldn't have thought twice and most likely would have forgotten it had happened before he even made it to the woodline with your shit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
