Chapaevsk military loot spawns suck

[Osprey98 7]

im trying to find some mosins and vests not far from cherno to go pvp and I found the school and the prison at chapaevsk and ive been there a few times and looked around and found nothing. I server hopped and found a balaclava at the prison and a  p1 pistol at the school. the school in electro spawns better loot. were these buildings supposed to have little or no mil loot for balancing reasons or am I just unlucky?

Just unlucky, as far as I understand it all buildings of the same type spawn the same loot regardless of their location. It's only a 15 min run to Kamenka military base via Balota. You might find what you're looking for there...

[Osprey98 7]

I searched again and again and again on different unlooted servers and didn't find anything. did mil loot generally become more scarce?

[falraen 1]

From my experience in 0.50 and 0.51 prisons almost never have any good loot. All the good loot is in barracks for military weapons and random small houses for non military loot.

[Osprey98 7]

but what about schools then? ive noticed the same thing with the prisons

Lol noob. Mosin isn't military loot. You find them in blue civilian cars, under green construction trailers, farms and civilian buildings.

Mosins seldom spawn at military bases - it's 'not' a typical army weapon of choice.

You've a much better chance finding mosins in residential/civil buildings areas and barns.

SKS is one of the most common military weapon and surprisingly accurate compared to M4, which is still a garbage 'rare' gun

in consider accuracy. I would rather used an AK-74 gun instead and it's a lot easier to find since it spawns at police stations too

in patch 51. 

However, AK-74 mags and magazines in general is difficult to find, but I think they changed it recently in patch 51 so it's easier

compare to stable patch 50. (Although still 'ra're' items..)

Tip, get off the shore, go north west, you can get mosins in vybor easily, AK's at military base or the airfield, also easy to camp and spot players and kill them for their gear. Going pvp at the shore is almost suicide unless you are one hell of a sneaky bastard and isn't meeting any Hac.. Yeah you probably know what I mean. Just something half of dayz community seems to miss.. The north west is alot safer than the shore! The loot is alot better too... Also the empty buildings can be because of persistent servers are bit buggy and at some places it spawns almost nothing and if not even nothing.. and some places it spawns alot of loot.. Its pretty unbalanced at the moment. The best way to actually loot up atm is going on freshly restarted persistent OFF server.

Unless they've changed how buildings and loot spawns, every building will spawn the same items in different cities. A school or bus station in elektro has the same chance to spawn the same loot as a school or bus stop in any other location.

It wouldn't make much sense to do it otherwise, at least for immersions standpoint, having higher value loot spawn in buildings farther inland than the coast would make sense, but personally I'd rather have this great art team work on some new buildings and realllly change the landscape.

More buildings would be a welcome sight. Everything becomes kind of bland when the scenery never changed from city to city.

Why are you people helping a useless server hopper? I've seen his threads, it blatantly obvious all wants is that phat lootz so he can go down to the coast and k0s like a true dank bandit.

[Dagwood 680]

Why enjoy the game when you can just hop from server to server forever

I'm confused. Since when is there a prison in Chapaevsk? The only prison building I know of that isn't at a military facility is in Turovo.

You are shooting yourself in the foot though. Think (wit timers and looting time) how many hops could you doo in 15 mins? 4 maybe

 

If you just spend that time running to a mill base and back you will get your gar much quicker. But yeah don't see a lot of mosins in mill bases...I did see one of each ak in a barracks yesterday though....took me ages to decide lol. Its kind of a false economy to hop.

 

If everyone else was jumping off a skyscraper....would you? :P

[Osprey98 7]

yea u guys have a pont about going to  a military base but I just hate spending so much time getting good gear and then getting into fights and losing

I feel I do better with shit gear cuz im fearless

[Krawallkurt 118]

Most of them are empty theese days. But had some where the loot stacked to. Where every room was wtf full with stuff.
