I am a little past a noob, but nowhere near knowing what I'm doing. All of your videos help. Sometimes I know the tip you are showing, but more importantly I didn't know or had forgotten. Thanks for taking the time to help us all out! Yo!
If you play with a map on your phone next to you( Izurvive in app or android store), you can see where the chickens, water wells, police stations and med buildings are. Some consider this cheating but It helped me a lot in the beginning. Best of luck.
breaking down firewood is helpful to build stick shelters since you need 50 short sticks. Also 3 short sticks will burn for longer than 1 firewood and take up less space. you can also fill an unlit campfire with 6 firewood 10 short sticks 6rags and 8 bark and carry it in your inventory to save a ton of space.
If I'm building imp shelters I usually stock up on logs and carry them to the base you can just keep cutting them down, much easier than having to gather from bushes, quicker too!!
Standing dead pine will give you one log and a ton of fire wood with one chop loop. You can then split that fire wood down for small sticks, half a shelter right there
YO! there has also been an occasion where i chopped firewood into sticks and that is making a temporary shelter, the stick one is best one since it blends in with forests the most and the shelter itself has 100 slots of space
"Yo!" Nitno! Very important and ultra easy craft: Fur backpack from a boar. If you get the boar killed, use the knife to craft rope out of guts and use this rope with the boar pelt and - voila! - fur backpack! (no garden lime needed here) Keep it up dude!
The sticks from trees/firewood thing is handy when making shelters . You don’t have to run around cutting down heaps of small bushes but you may have to sharpen the axe.
Yo! I've actually broke down firewood into short sticks a few times for making the stick shelter. The spear is my favorite craft out of those. I haven't tried the leather backpack yet, I always forget you can do it and how good it is. Thanks for the good info as usual.
If you cut up an animal, or a player... 😆 I'd forgotten the belt one. Didn't know you could place a tripwire without a trap (grenade, etc) to trip a player. I'm assuming this causes him to make noise via the stumble? IIRC, the torch also gives you some heat, to maintain the heat buff (?), and may help dry out your clothes. Am I remembering this correctly? Could really help on cold maps like Namalsk. And making small sticks out of firewood is completely new to me. That will be helpful, especially if one has a crossbow. As always, GREAT VIDEO! And "yo!".
I play on frostbite servers sometimes on ps5 and the short torch definitely works to keep your heat buff. It won't give you the heat buff itself but will keep it going after you get the buff from an actual fireplace.
I think iam like 700 hrs but one thing everyone should know. Is bone knives. If you combine a small rock to bones its crafts a bone knife and only uses one bone opposed to using the 2 to craft in open hands.
Yo. You can make a burning torch from a short stick as well which will fit in an inventory easier. When you have your heat buff from it or don't need it anymore, extinguish it with your water supply and stow it away for future use. Also, gasoline can be used as well as animal fat, at least on the servers I'm on, which are always modded. I think the gasoline useage is still vanilla though. 🇦🇺
hardly anyone uses the cooking stand for fireplace. two short sticks and 1 long stick. I think the burlap head cover is the rarest item 'crafted' in game, the mouth gag would be up there too.
Yo. An older tip. Having two sticks to your shoulders will prevent your smaller shoulder able smg from taking up that place making you a lesser target. Fun fact it takes less time to deploy a weapon from your inventory than your shoulder.
Tip: look up the recipe for an improvised shelter. Takes some rope and a lot of short sticks, but done so rarely that people don't know about it. Gives cover from rain, 100 storage slots, can be upgraded, ..😊
@@Nitno great idea for a future video. It can be expanded with tarps and such, too! Set up near a river bank with foliage, blend in and stockpile sticks, rope, fish, bone hooks & you can easily set up a good little camp for 3-4 people.
@@paranoidcobra7731 Yes it does but I don´t have enough time to be running to my shelter every week just to refresh the timer. Barrels and crates are much better for storing, they have 150 (50) slots and last 45 days if not buried.
Yo, that torch is a game changer. I lost count of how many times I logged out because I couldn’t see anything. Also I can’t believe I haven’t figured out I could make a belt with rope I’ve spent hours looking for a belt. And the dry bag one blew my mind, on one of the community servers I use they spawn tons of those stupid dry bags but I hardly ever take them because I don’t want to carry it and put stuff in it.
Love the choice of music and volume used in your background music. It's not the usual Ritilin laced Chipmunk "music" that so many use 🙄🙄, plus the volume doesn't intrude on your narrative. 👍🇦🇺
nope, this is the biggest myth in dayz. don't disinfect rags or wounds. just use dirty rags or sewing kit and wait to see IF you get an infection. (it's not very common at full stats) then IF you get an infection, disinfect your wounds. The infection cure almost immediately and you're not wasting precious resources. If I have disinfectant, I don't even bother looking for bandages anymore.
@@dealler669 blasphemy!! Oh wait. Makes sense. Or and hear me out, disinfect them and use the space for something else, but then you may get sick again and it's bloody useful tincture
Tan bag is nice and I'd love to use it more, but when you play like me, without base, collecting and transporting all things needed are just not worth the effort.
Yo, long time player on Xbox, taking a hiatus at the moment, still love watching DayZ vids of various kinds though, always looking to learn new useful stuff to try out upon returning to the game, ngl would love to have a decent gaming PC specifically for Survival games, and maaaaybe to run a modded DayZ server, cause Xbox got the shortest straw in terms of modability and such unfortunately 😅
I absolutely love this game,,,,Now I just started a year ago on console. And I was very lucky to find a perfect server with amazing people. This game is absolutely amazing honestly I almost quit and deleted the game the first couple times I tried to play because I was always dying because of no food fresh water and I was always getting sick lol but like I said found a PVE server that gave me enough time to figure stuff out. So if you just started playing this game give it time you will eventually figure it out and you will love this game too
3:43 And just like that, it took me over 30 hours to find garden lime, a leather sewing kit and some pelts in a single life to make that damn backpack 😂
It catches Rabits and Chickens, but the way it works is you leave the area after setting it and come back and there is a catch. It doesn't catch animals that are actively roaming the world. It's more of a "poof" the trapped animal is spawned in.
While the Leather Bag is cool, just having these steps to build already makes it unnecessary effort for a new player like me I'm often much more likely to find/seek out a better backpack To have a gun with ammo, to then find and kill a cow/deer, locate fertiliser, and a leather sewing kit is a lot of hoops for someone who still needs a decent backpack Even just having the space free for these items until you find the last ingredient can be a pain Still good to know

Tried putting every type of grenade in the tripwire too but no luck. I'm on console ps5 btw so the bug may not affect pc right now.
It would be cool to see you here: www.twitch.tv/nitno
Yo, you missed the fur bags from your list. No need for garden lime and a leather kit, just a rope, and a hairy animal hide.
True, but leather bag will increase from 42 to 63 slots with similar slim profile. Luv the courier backpack and furry backpack early game
Good point, could have included that. The Leather Bag is massive though in space!
and they look better as well. not like the testicle one
It’s only boar hide , not any animal hide
@@redshift912 It can be any hide. Just make tanned leather first and combine with leather kit!

Never knew that about the belt being made from rope - yo!
King! YO!
Thank you a lot for these tips , I needed metal wire to build a door but I only had a ton of barbed wire
Yes indeed! Anytime!
A lit torch is also a ridiculously OP melee weapon, knocking people unconscious in 2-4 hits, *even if they're blocking.*
That is another great feature haha, torched!
thanks man the best part of dayz is learning and helping new people get into the mix. oh and sniping after you send them merrily on their way
For sure!
YO! there has also been an occasion where i chopped firewood into sticks and that is making a temporary shelter, the stick one is best one since it blends in with forests the most and the shelter itself has 100 slots of space
Great thinking, agreed!
Yo, the torch is also great to bait people at night. It illuminates a nice area great for ambushes.
Oooo I might need to use this one, hadn't thought of that.
torches are great as a portable fireplace too, to dry your clothes and get you a heat buff on the move
Good thinking!
"Yo!" Nitno!

and crossbow bolts.
Me thinking I know pretty much everything about crafting: "You can make a drybag backpack??"
😅👍
Great video! One thing though, you said “you can combine a drybag with a rope” to make a backpack but it is the drysack. Keep up the good work!
Woops, good catch

Good points! Extinguishing and putting in bags is a good idea, hadn't thought of that.
The leather back pack is also water proof, at least from rain. Can only get damp and will keep anything in it dry. Yo
Ah yes! Good thinking, true!
hardly anyone uses the cooking stand for fireplace. two short sticks and 1 long stick. I think the burlap head cover is the rarest item 'crafted' in game, the mouth gag would be up there too.
Good craft for sure
Thanks for the tips. I didnt know they had progressed to tanning leather with just lime. Used to be you needed a barrel to tan hides. Awesome. 😎
Yes indeed! 😀
Yo. An older tip. Having two sticks to your shoulders will prevent your smaller shoulder able smg from taking up that place making you a lesser target. Fun fact it takes less time to deploy a weapon from your inventory than your shoulder.
Great idea!
if you drop the smg on the ground and pick it up, it doesn´t make any sound that alerts enemies.
@@dealler669 good tip
Yo! Love your content bro. I have come sooo far in dayz with your help. Finally got off the coast and have even made it to the west side of the map.
That's what I like to hear!
I always go for a burlap pack, or the fur one if I find it on a zombie. Also combining 6x6 rags for rope is probably well know but top 3 crafts imo
Good choice, love that bag.

only lasts a week = useless.
@@dealler669 if you or someone else use it at least once in those seven days, doesn't it reset that timer? Or is it a fixed timer?
@@paranoidcobra7731 Yes it does but I don´t have enough time to be running to my shelter every week just to refresh the timer. Barrels and crates are much better for storing, they have 150 (50) slots and last 45 days if not buried.
Great tips. Always discard the rope early game, next time I’ll convert to belt! Can the torch be “spiked” in the ground to illuminate areas?
Yes indeed the torch can be placed on the ground and it will stand up and light up the place.
Yo, that torch is a game changer. I lost count of how many times I logged out because I couldn’t see anything. Also I can’t believe I haven’t figured out I could make a belt with rope I’ve spent hours looking for a belt. And the dry bag one blew my mind, on one of the community servers I use they spawn tons of those stupid dry bags but I hardly ever take them because I don’t want to carry it and put stuff in it.
Thanks for the kind words. For sure, the first time I made a torch at night, I was like "I should've done this way sooner".
you can also set fire to brooms. less light and heat though.
Love the choice of music and volume used in your background music. It's not the usual Ritilin laced Chipmunk "music" that so many use 🙄🙄, plus the volume doesn't intrude on your narrative. 👍🇦🇺

I've seen animal spawns on iZurvive. Is the snare trap working exclusive to rabbit spawns?
It catches Rabits and Chickens, but the way it works is you leave the area after setting it and come back and there is a catch. It doesn't catch animals that are actively roaming the world. It's more of a "poof" the trapped animal is spawned in.
@@Nitno So it doesn't have to be a marked spawn?

Unfortunately tripwires are broken at the moment. They need to make the handmade spear more powerful, as it is now it's too weak and ends up getting you in more trouble than getting you out of because of the janky zombies and goofy animation when using the spear.
