dricht1 28 Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) So I've been meaning to build myself a leather backpack since the patch that introduced them. The first step, I think to myself, is to find an animal to skin. After days of searching I found a deer, killed it... and realized that duh, the axe isn't gonna work for skinning. Okay, so the first step is to find a knife! ...or not. Entire towns searched top to bottom, not so much as a kitchen knife. Eventually I decide 'fukkit, I'll see if I can find one of those new mp5s.' ... ... ... Apparently everyone else had the same idea, because after nine police stations I had to call it quits. Not even one mag, and still no knife, and no animals, all of which I've been looking for desperately this entire time. "Whatever. Balota is near, maybe I can meet someone there. Screw finding loot. Along the way I find a kitchen knife. Then two minutes later, a deer. I finally realize I need a rope, and just take the skin with me. Off to search for rope! So now that I'm not looking for one, I spot an mp5 in a police station with a 30-round mag on a car outside (awfully inaccurate by the way). Then an akm in a barracks room, with a drum mag in the room right next to it. Already had an AKM with drum mags so I did the sensible thing and dumped both new finds in the nearby ocean. I find that the best approach to gun safety is to make sure you're the only one with a gun. Also came across not one but two pristine m4 bayonet knives. ... Several hours and three entire towns later, I finally, finally find a rope and triumphantly drag it onto my deer pelt! ... Hate you dayz. Off to find a boar...

blazinone 72 Posted July 14, 2014 That's actually a good rule: Whatever you need, you won't find until you stop looking for it.Knives are rather rare but that's OK for now. I had a good long search for rope recently too so I could make a fishing pole. It's fun! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dricht1 28 Posted July 14, 2014 I've found tons of knives and two additional ropes now that I don't need them. Got lucky with the boar, found one within a couple hours (and naturally another one a few minutes later). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
