Denuth 21 Posted July 3, 2012 I've heard rumors of 1hr, but to be honest, I've checked that time span and found that the loot didn't re spawn. so it is definitely more then a hour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steven89 22 Posted July 3, 2012 yeah it has to be more than 1 hour....im camping this spot for like 74 minutes now....i think more than 1 hour is to much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Denuth 21 Posted July 3, 2012 Well I wouldn't camp anywhere for that long man, in the time you have waited you could have looted multiple cities. But that's just my thing, I'm always on the move! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djzeber 3 Posted July 3, 2012 Even if stuff spawns back after a while it wont be the same stuff you picked up the first time... You mite be very disappointed after waiting such a long time for stuff to spawn back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DesertRose 8 Posted July 4, 2012 Depends.Takes a LONG time for loot to change into something elseIf you remove loot from it's spawn, then go away and come back it is far quicker to respawn more loot.How long? it varies somewhat... 5 minutes usually.Crash Site loot is first come first served and does not reappear until the server resets. At which point the helicopter locations will all change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djzeber 3 Posted July 4, 2012 You being near the spawn area mite stop it from spawning. Try moving away from the area for 10 min then going back to check. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Techercizer 82 Posted July 4, 2012 It will never respawn until you make it respawn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cjj (DayZ) 0 Posted July 4, 2012 This is what I heard, it respawns every 10 minutes as longs no player has been within 120m of that building for 10 minutes straight and there is no loot at all in the building(although I have seen loot respawn even though there is junk loot still in the building,, i tested this at NW airfrield on a pretty empty server and it worked, I just looted and stayed 120m away for a big over 15 minutes and the loot came back.

Bizmarhk 8 Posted July 4, 2012 Around 10 minutes is correct, and yes you have to move out of the area for it to respawn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
