🔍 Tips:

• Police Stations (PDs) are great for early weapons (shotguns, pistols, CRs).
• Sheds / Garages = nails, axes, and base-building tools.
• Hunting Stands / Cabins = early rifles and ghillie wrap parts.
• Military Tents (like Stary, NWAF) = best chance for M4s, AKs, and military gear.
• Industrial Buildings = ideal for storage items and repair kits.

Chernarus Loot Routes DayZ: Item spawns in DayZ follow a tiered loot system, and where items spawn is based on:

1. Loot Tier (1–4): Defines the quality of loot.
2. Building Type / Category: Certain items only spawn in specific building types (military, civilian, medical, industrial, etc.)
3. Map Region: The further inland you go, the better the loot gets (usually).

Let us break it down for you:

🔄 Loot Tier System (Chernarus)

• Tier 1 (Coastline) – Low-tier loot: pistols, sporter rifles, basic clothing.
• Tier 2 (Middle of map) – Better civilian gear, some low-tier military gear.
• Tier 3 (Upper mid) – AKs, vests, better meds.
• Tier 4 (Far North/West) – Best loot in the game (M4s, NVGs, high-tier armor).

Items don’t spawn randomly, they follow defined spawn points inside specific building types.
