donnyuk78 91 Posted May 14, 2019 Good morning, A question.... i left my backpack in a lock room( thats a another issuse) which i have since died and i have started to travel back to the location it is in, so my question is will it still be there or once your not carrying it will the backpack despawn? regards DonnyDanger78 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FearFokkol 131 Posted May 14, 2019 I know it was mentioned here previously as to how long these items would stay before despawning, I would assume that if the backpack was left there a few minutes ago and your character respawns, then its should still be there when you get there.

donnyuk78 91 Posted May 14, 2019 This was last night so I'm pretty it will have despawned by the time i get back there in the next few days 😂 i was just wondering 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FearFokkol 131 Posted May 14, 2019 Yeah if your only going back there in a few days, then it's likely it would have already despawned or someone else would find it😁 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
donnyuk78 91 Posted May 14, 2019 yea probably just pure dreaming on my part, that said i have put in a place that i think no one will find it (i'm sure we all think this that too 😂) i'm still going to head that way anyway as there is a base build someone has started there which i'm intrigued to see if they come back to do anymore.... will need to find a lock pick on the way just in case that doors still locked and my backpack is still there ......sounds like a easy plan to me 😂🤣 Regards DonnyDanger78 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stagman70 210 Posted May 14, 2019 I do believe that backpack persistence is 4 hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted May 14, 2019 Also worth noting that locked doors reset upon server restart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair even if it was unlocked it would be pretty hard to see. It was hidden in a pile of pallets, a quick look around this room you wouldn't see it.

DayzDayzFanboy 1280 Posted May 14, 2019 Yeah, I think sometimes hiding things in plain sight is a good strategy. Buried containers can be a good method though you could still get unlucky if someone stumbles across it. I found seven buried stashes behind a shed in berezino. I went behind it to sort my gear out and hit a gold mine! I do bury stuff occasionally but usually I get a barrel and hide it in a river. Much harder to spot than a buried stash and you have to be on just the right spot to get the open prompt. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Must give it a go You can bury dry sacks and dry bags, ammo boxes, protective cases, sea chests and possibly medical cases?, though I haven't tried those yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
