DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted April 25, 2019 Definitely? And does that apply to any item because the other week I put a shovel on the ground when I was base building and it was gone twenty mins later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BPs have different despawn timers than for example ur shovel for sure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wh1skey_ 111 Posted April 29, 2019 Persistence In DayZ, all items will eventually despawn after a predetermined amount of time. That length of time varies depending upon the type of item but does not apply to anything carried within a player's inventory. Item : Time Traps : 1 Hour Tents/Barrels : 7 Days Backpacks : 4 Hours Crafted Bags : 1 Hour Other Crafted Items : 5 Minutes All Other Items : 30 Minutes source https://dayz.gamepedia.com/Loot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xxxD1RTD1VRxxx 34 Posted May 2, 2019 I've noticed the infected despawning rather quickly also for example i agroed a couple of zeds in a small town by Sverograd so ran into a house and shot them through the windows with my pistol (which of course drew more!) and I dispatched them also. Went outside mere moments later to loot the bodies for food and drink only to find over half of the dozen or so i killed were gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
