Wolfarus 7 Posted February 3, 2014 Figured i'd start a topic for players (especially newer ones who find their first piece of good gear) to brag about their good finds. Plus im a lil' happy about finding 5/7 gear pieces i was still looking for, before leaving my farming spot and going back to exploring. So i wanna brag a bit. GOOD finds. Dont spam with every can of beans you find, or every taloon backpack ;) Da' goodz i found tonight: Khaki UK assault vest, pristine / TTsKO pants, prinstine / T3N RDS optics, pristine / FNX45 pistol, pristine / FNX45 mag, pristine. Also found another 50rnds of ammo for my m4, now have over 200. Just need to luck out with a pristine NV spawn,RIS handguard (to replace the basic plastic one i have now) and im buggin out for a bit. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyline-gtr 130 Posted February 3, 2014 Never found anything worth mentioning in my first 4 hours or so playing. Logged in one time to find myself near a town I had never seen before, carefully exploring I soon realised that no one else was there.Occasionaly getting chased by zombies, I manage to avoid these and get to loot some houses.Long story short, I found a backpack and a rather large Axe. Zombies are now dealt with swiftly and I can carry several supplies to take with me when I decide to move on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfarus 7 Posted February 3, 2014 My biggest zombie killing feat was taking out a group of 4 (2 reg, and 2 soldier zeds) with a worn pipewrench :D Though yeh.. splitting axe/fire axe's should be your priority melee weapon, since they can kill zeds in 1-2 hits. I'd prob still be scrambling around on the east side of the map, if i didnt find a compass that helped me get west and into military sites. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wolfarus 7 Posted February 3, 2014 Mosin 1930: M9A1 Bayonet , Mosin M44 Compensator, PU Scope and ATLAS Bipod. Cant find a Long Range Scope in 4 hours...Ouch. I had a pristine long-ranged scope for the mosin i found before the m4. Since i ditched the mosin a cple days ago, threw away the scope before i logged out to save some backpack space >.> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dchil 829 Posted February 3, 2014 I found a Mosin compensator that was pristine today and a Pristine M4.However several zombies turned that compensator to worn and i'd hadn't even found a mosin yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dayy 173 Posted February 3, 2014 In one run, my friend and I found two M4's, a bunch of ammunition, some magnums, a few hunter backpacks, even more mountain backpacks, meds, and a good amount of general supplies. It was a good day, that day... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cywehner1234 582 Posted February 3, 2014 Steps to acquiring good loot. 1. Go to Balota2. Get in jail3.???4. PROFIT! I'll let you guys figure out #3. In a more serious note, I give you guys props for playing the game how it should be played. Although we don't need to brag about mosins on someone elses post.

worst2first 71 Posted February 3, 2014 There are some good lot spots in the west that few people visit. You still have to be careful though because if you do run into someone out there, they're probably a well-equipped, experienced player. I finally found an ACOG in a barracks yesterday. I'm normally a Mosin guy but I now have an M4 with bipod, ACOG, and RIS handguard (all pristine). It's probably taken about a week (I don't play every day) to assemble it. I have yet to see a long range scope other than the badly damaged one a friend gave me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dricht1 28 Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) Bullets. Today I found lots of bullets. They are piling up, because I don't shoot at people, and there are few zombies. I have 1011 rounds of various types now, and no idea how I can still walk. My inventory is completely full, because I am waiting for my friends to come back after being chased away from the game by a sniper and an axe murderer, respectively. I have an FNX with flashlight and two magazines for one friend, and a full set of pristine m4 attachments for the other friend, along with two coupled magazines (I like that friend more). I will stick with my pristine mosin for overwatch and pristine FNX for close encounters, along with their full complement of pristine attachments. Heck, I'm even carrying a second LRS at the moment that I found by accident. I am probably the biggest loot piñata ever....

InflatedLyric 39 Posted February 4, 2014 Spent the majority of my time reading pristine The Red Badge of Courage. I did not loot at all today. I found myself outside NEAF, but I was checking it out with scope and it had been looted, so I decided it was not worth the risk to approach. I need to grab some more food, down to 3 cans of beans and a bag of rice. My best find on this life is either Art of War (not pristine) or a press vest.

Dchil 829 Posted February 4, 2014 Found a pistol flashlight. Now all i gotta do is find some FNX mags before the next update which allows you to chamber a round individually in the FNX. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eagle2674 3 Posted February 4, 2014 Was on with my son. We both had just got pristine M4s and were tickled pink because we had never found any before.We went to the NE airfield to scavenge some ammo and mags.Just as we found some ammo and were enjoying our find we both got sniped.You are dead. This is the third time we have been sniped from nowhere. We are thinking of becoming bandits just because it is impossible to find nice people in this game. Oh well. time to gear up again. :beans: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are right. Lurking in the bushes with a mosin around a good loot source can only mean one thing. Bad! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
consortiumczar 40 Posted February 4, 2014 Today my cousin and I were running around and some guy appeared with a shotgun. Well... Poor sap didn't have any rounds... Cousin chopped him into pieces and took the cannon... I had pockets of shells and now we're BOTH packing heat finally. We always roll together from town to town. Loving the game so far :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antykain 200 Posted February 4, 2014 I'm on the hunt for one of the 'rare' vests again.. Ballistic or Anti-stab vest would be nice. I 'had' the Ballistics Vest up till about a week ago. Unfortunately, I did die in a heated firefight and was not able to recover it. :/ Other than that, geared up with all prestine MP parts for my M4, slingin a nice SKS, and prestine black Tactical shirt, black cargos, black bandana, and gloves/boots.
