Luck.

So, after dying in Cherno from a sniper bullet. I took a little break from Dayz (playing MoP), when I finally got back to the wastelands of Chernarus. I was strucken by luck.

After spawning in at around Otmel I made the choice to move to Sniper hill (north of Elektro) and scout the area for murder hungry snipers. I found a corpse and I asked myself

"Can I really steal this mans weaponry?"

When I saw he had just about any tool, the largest backpack in the game and a very fine looking M249 SAW.

"Yes, i can"

So, now on my way down the mountain, with my hands absolutly shaking I though.

"Could I be anymore luckier"

I then saw a very cowardly man sneak around Sniper Hill with his M24, I took the shot and brought him down.

"Appearently I can"

So, now with the largest possible areseal I feel glad.

After playing all those long days which allways led to death, is this my redemption?

Did I earn this?

What if that man with the sniper only were there to reclaim his kill?

Don't bask in it too long, a hacker/sniper/bandit will take your luck away soon enough...

Yes, I'm currrently trading it all away for a big survival kit. (Ghillie and silenced weaponry)

You're making the right choice. If you use the fact that you (will) have a ghillie you will be impossible to spot and therefore, very hard to shoot/kill. Provided you're not playing in a server with tags.

Who the hell plays on a server with name tags?

It's basically a wallhack -.-

As he was hanging around sniperhill he probably was a bandit I think he deserved too be looted. So you earned it anyway.

[filas02 37]

Yes, but was the other kill justified?

He could have been the one killing him and just going up there too loot him.
