Loot

Loot refers to items that can be found at loot spawn positions in most enterable buildings in DayZ, such as houses, hospitals, army barracks, and barns. Players can store loot in their inventory, backpacks, tents, and vehicles. Death results in a player's body being lootable, while their backpack remains usable. A player will not keep their items after death, a form of permanent death. Loot is accessed using the gear menu (default G) while under certain conditions, such as when a player faces a loot pile or when a player is positioned in the correct location around a vehicle. Tents are also accessed using the gear menu.

Loot Spawn Categories

Loot is broken up into 7 main categories in DayZ. in order of rarity these are:

Residential/Civilian

Civilian loot has a bit of everything. Often it has a good chance to spawn Food and small chance to spawn low tier Weapons. A lot of basic Equipment can be found here including the Map and Compass.

Enterable civilian buildings are the most common type of building in DayZ. These include:

• Churches
• Office buildings
• Supermarkets
• Houses
• Apartment buildings

Industrial

Industrial areas are fairly common and they are the main place to look for vehicle components, Wire Fencing Kits and Toolboxes:

• Warehouses
• Gas Stations
• Workshops

Farms

Farm areas can spawn food, drink, and wood, but also have a higher than normal chance to spawn basic weapons and ammunition. These include:

• Barns
• Cow sheds

General Military

There are a few military loot areas on the map, and all of them are frequented by both Bandits and Survivors. Military areas spawn the best items currently in DayZ, often high end Equipment. They include:

• Hangars
• Air traffic control towers
• Fire stations
• Military tents
• Deer stands

Barracks

See: Barracks Barracks are special military areas which may spawn better Weapons and Equipment than the general military areas. Barracks are only found at the International Airfield and are the only place that spawn Satchel Charges.

Helicopter Crash Sites

Helicopter Crash Sites can be found in various locations throughout Chernarus and are most commonly found on open fields or on hillsides. The locations of the crash sites vary for each server. These sites are excellent for looting as they contain some of the best weapons that you may find in the DayZ world.

Crash Sites can spawn extremely rare weapons that cannot be found anywhere else such as the AS50 and FN FAL ANPV S4.

The weapons that spawn here are often British and of high quality and the zombies that wander around it also usually carry around some minor military type items. The zombies also spawn very fast, so if you are planing on looking around be ready for zombies to keep spawning.

Each crash site seems to have 6 loot spots. Swaying your crosshair around the ground is recommended, as tall grass or a slight slope may cause weapons to be hidden underground, but still lootable.
