TimTams 3 Posted July 23, 2012 Hi all,So - am I doing it wrong? I've been camping around the barracks for like a whole day now, nobody else has even been here, I removed all the items and put them on corpses but it seems only chemlights, flares, AKMs and M16's are spawning. Isn't there supposed to be valuable shit like NVG's, useful ammo and rare weapons?I know the barracks are supposed to be the high value military spawn but I get better stuff at Stary SoborCheersTim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanglory 72 Posted July 23, 2012 What barracks? There are alot of them.Besides, we're talking about RARE weapons. That means that is it hard to find as a drop.Working as intended. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Priceless 154 Posted July 23, 2012 Just unlucky nvgs spawn in barracks 0.11% percent of time. Not very often :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wordplayuk@gmail.com 101 Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) I've never found nvgs or a gps at the barracks an farmed them for hours, your better off searching heli crash sites after a reset. But yeah they do spawn some of the rarest loot. Have a look at a loot table for specific weapons, some are only found at crash sites.

TimTams 3 Posted July 23, 2012 I understand that items are supposed to be rare but why so rare? I have a full time job, I don't exactly get to sit on my ass 24/7 waiting for shit to spawn. Not only that it's difficult enough as it is to hang around the barracks without getting shotThis needs to be fixed IMO I'm not giving up my social life to play this gameWhat barracks? There are alot of them.Actually only two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That could of been at any military outpost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deviant (DayZ) 43 Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) He never said "NW Airfield" he just mentioned barracks. That could of been at any military outpost.There are only two barracks buildings, and both of them are at northwest airfield.If he meant military spawns in general, it could be many different places. But the only way to find NVG's is at northwest airfield barracks buildings.Oh, and Heli Crashes. Edited July 23, 2012 by Deviant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Urzaden 6 Posted September 23, 2012 i am having the same problem and since it is just me and some times a friend securing a vehicle to search for heli sites is sort of rough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521 Posted September 23, 2012 There is a reason they are rare, try wandering off a few kilometers and then have a check again, something new might have spawned in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonehead3535 105 Posted September 23, 2012 im pretty sure what looting farming means to you guys are just server hopping for loots Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terex 322 Posted September 23, 2012 I've never found a pair of nvg's that weren't on a body.. The rare items are common now on people from all the duped and hacked ones going around. They still only have a low chance to spawn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sostronk 334 Posted September 24, 2012 Play Lingor if your super serious about getting your gear quicker there are a tad more military spawns on that map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
killcamike 8 Posted September 24, 2012 There's only 2 barracks, and it's still a tiny chance that anything rare will spawn, I prefer to just hop servers and loot, then go back to by home server and stash it ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
