Which hills are the sniper hills?

Recommended Posts

I forget, which hills are considered "sniper hill"?

  • Is the sniper hill around Elektro called Dobryy?
  • Is the sniper hill around Cherno called Vysota?
  • Is the sniper hill around Stary Sobor the little forest directly north of the military camp?
  • I don't even know which hill is sniper hill for NWAF
  • Is the sniper hill around NEAF the forest of Olsha?

Any Hill that overlooks anything of value (City, Airfield, Coast...) is sniper hill..

But the original, Elektro.

yes dobryy

cherno sniping sucks didnt even know there was a hill that can overlook it luls

looking out from the deer stand north of stary to your front right. so yes that forest area

the forest on the west side of the middle of the airfield is where i snipe from. can watch every single loot area on the airfield and see if zombies spawn at the south area. there is however a thin line of trees northwestish that can see the hangers + fire station + ATC building.

yes the stone wall close to olsha

As for your list.

Here it goes:

  • Is the sniper hill around Elektro called Dobryy? YES, but also this hill: http://dayzdb.com/map#6.098.123
  • Is the sniper hill around Cherno called Vysota? YES, but also watch out for this area: http://dayzdb.com/map#6.057.125
  • Is the sniper hill around Stary Sobor the little forest directly north of the military camp? All the hills around Stary Sobor are sniper hills. You can get sniped from any side.
  • I don't even know which hill is sniper hill for NWAF. Goes same as for Stary Sobor, you can get sniped from anywhere.
  • Is the sniper hill around NEAF the forest of Olsha? Yes, but you can also get sniped from Ostry hill: http://dayzdb.com/map#6.114.024

Stary Sobor and the NWAF are not called PvP areas for no reason. You can get shot at from all sides and are much exposed. If going there, always presume you are being in a sniper crosshair all the time and move like so. Sneak, prone, crouch. Even if you don't see zombies in Stary or NWAF, that doesn't mean that a sniper is not overlooking the whole area 500m away in some bush.
