Helping a player with a few questions

[Saviour 1]

Hello, I've been playing this game for about 2 weeks and have a few questions on some items

1. Tents, Where is a safe location to put some? and is there a way to relocate one you put down without remember cords if you dont have a GPS? and is there any glitches i should be aware of? me and a few friends are trying to find a few to stock some supplies on

2. Vehicle, where are good locations to find decent cars or trucks that arent super dangerous to get too? and how do you repair a car? do you need to find an engine? and can ALL vehicles be repaired?

3. High end gear, Where are best locations to find a few GPS, Rangefinders, NVGs, Ghilles, etc.

4. Also, would are a few gun combinations for a squad of about 5-7 people to carry that would make us pretty decent at looting a town or city with little trouble? we always play on 30+ player servers and have run into a few gun fights that have no ended well and want to know a few good guns that could give us an advantage

If you could answer this that would be a great help, we are decently experienced, but having a hard time getting high end geared.

1. See if the server got waypoint system enabled. And put one at a decent place.

2. There are plenty of vehicles but alot of them are probably taken. There's an offroad truck east of zelenogorsk. Yes you need to repair its wheels etc.

3. northwest airfield is my bet.

4. Have some snipers around. They can help you alot with that.

Just a couple answers.

1. Anywhere not suggested by someone outside your squad. Try to find a dense forest area with low traffic.

2. http://dayzdb.com/map you can find vehicles at those locations there assuming someone hasnt grabbed it and stashed it somewhere.

3. http://dayzdb.com/map also has loot spawn information but to break it down a bit; Heli crash sites, Deer stands, Military loot spawns (Airfields for example), and Camo/Ghillies can commonly be found in the local Bars/Restaurants found in major cities.

4. A couple snipers/overwatch, someone with a CQC weapon to cover the immediate area of the snipers (and preferably with a range finder to give estimates on the fly), and the rest of the crew on assault with CQC weapons to raid the town.

Hope it helps a bit.

Happy hunting :rolleyes:

Tbh, The dayZdb map is totally wrong with the vehicles sadly. Use the southcoastbeanwars vehicle map instead ^^
