Note: this page covers the Standalone version of DayZ; for information on the Mod, see Mod:Temperature.

Your body temperature determines how easy it is to get Infections, and if very low you will recieve the status effect Cold. Common temperature while day + running is 42°C (yes, so high, but still normal), while night is 35°C.

Like the other HUD icons, the temperature icon will begin to blink when nearing a critical state. When this happens, the player should try to increase their temperature as quickly as possible or face the possibility of obtaining a cold or infection.

You increase your body temperature by:

  • Moving (very slow, faster movement speed will neutralise loss)
  • Remaining inside buildings (slow)
  • Staying in the sunshine (slow - moderate based on time of day)

Your body temperature will decrease when:

  • You are outdoors at night (slow)
  • You are outdoors in a rain storm (fast)
  • You are outdoors in a windy environment (slow)
  • You are immersed in water (Very fast)
