Loot gnomes

Recommended Posts

The last few days, every time I log in a choice piece of loot has been missing from my bag. I've lost 2 75rd drums, and a protector case with a LRS, PU, and rangefinder in three separate incidents. Now I know this can happen from time to time but I'm not used to losing something every day! And of course it has to be great stuff like that that goes missing. Anyone else suffering repeated attacks from the loot gnomes with this last patch?

Just happened to me on a private shard. I was running along the coast near Berenzino. I lost all weapons and magazines. My pants and boots were also destroyed.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with looting gnomes. I mean, this is DayZ after all.

Not having your pack filled from to to bottom (versus bottom to top) will cause you to lose larger items upon login. As I understand it, the game sorts all of your items to the top of the container they are in when you logout. So when it tried to move your drums or your case upward in your inventory, into open slots, they're wasn't evoking room available (only 1-3 slots) and so the item was deleted. Hope that helped answer your question

That must be it! I left two 4 blocks open at the top and had the loot concentrated on the bottom, thanks for the solid info bro.

Sorry for the rage, I had that guy alive for 2 months. He died last night to an invisible, silent melee hacker to make things worse. I have around 1000+ combined hours in the mod and SA.

Were you on Violent Gentleman's Club by any chance? My brother and I encountered a hacker (Yes I reported it to Steak and Potatoes) in Cherno on three occasions yesterday. Must be a miserable life to have to take that approach.

I don't believe so. I had found a truck up in the middle of the map in a small town and had driven it down to the coast on the highway looking for a random to pick up and scoot around with. Ran out of gas on the bridge by the coastal factory. Hoofed it to look for a jerry can, was checking out a coastal gas station when all of the sudden without any warning I start taking melee hits out of nowhere. Couldn't see anything or hear anything, then I died. It was a 15/40 server at twilight.
