How to Find A3 on Namalsk - Getting Inside the Secret Underground Bunker Athena-3 - DayZ A-3

[@Nitno]

A3 NOW HAS GAS! - You just need a Gas Mask (not a full NBC suit) just the Gas Mask and Air Filter.

[@Dibbs.]

U sure its not just a server you played on that had the gas

[@grizzolg7050]

fuck my life i didnt jump far enough and broke my leg and then died to the event LOL god damnit man

[@Nitno]

Dang that same thing happened to TheRunningManZ on stream. It's actually happened to me in a previous patch as well. Sorry to hear that Grizzol!

[@themrbobross]

DayZ for ya lol

[@Nitno]

@@themrbobross For sure!

[@Erik-sq2nw]

been there done that. I broke my legs and passed out, heard the wolves running towards me and ate me alive while my friends all jumped successfully, leaving me alone to die :(

[@RoniaProductions]

A video on where loot spawns would be cool, maybe in a weeks time or so. I've been down there three times and haven't found a single piece of loot. Maybe the servers I'm on didn't configure it.

[@Nitno]

Good idea, I'll make a note and might work on a video for that. From my understanding on the "vanilla unchanged version of namalsk" this should have a new level of "tier 5" loot tables. But yes some modded servers might not have edited the values or configured the loot yet for there.

[@TheOneAndOnlyDaan]

Imagine walking out of Athena-2 and there is a bear on your right just when you leave the building.

[@Nitno]

hahaha yep!

[@albertobravo4787]

I fuckin had a bear coming down to the third underground level just this morning. I almost had a panick attack and thanks god I had a vaiga with a drum magazine on point (I have pics proving this). I love this game

[@TheMSnim]

@@albertobravo4787 Hell yeah brother I had bear too in 4th floor xd, I have escaped him to these watch towers with no loot and I was surrounded with zombies. (Not wise move Ik, but I would have die, no stamina, etc..) And then i get sniped xd so very interesting story....

[@nrdpc5975]

*sees Bear* "I have to go, my planet needs me."

[@Nitno]

Hahaha yesss, I was waiting for the first person to comment on that. I did not plan that at all but love it. 🐻

[@michaelwalker7004]

Some new friends were helping me do the portal for my first time. RIGHT as I jumped off the wooden bridge portal went away and I broke my leg and died to the storm

[@Nitno]

Noooo, that has happened to me before too. DANG

[@domestinger8805]

LMAO

[@driskoll127]

I just broke my leg and passed out because I jumped before the portal was quite big enough 😅 My two friends made it through because they waited and went a little bit after. We got there really fast because we had a helicopter.

[@Glocktopus129]

good ol' day Z lmao

[@delirium-d8r]

How the fuck would anyone figure this out without a guide like this?

[@Nitno]

Haha, glad I can help out!

[@Grottogoob]

Notes around the map detail the Athena project and how to activate it, and what areas are involved in its’ activation.

[@Sara-pi5oc]

thank you lol finally made it there... the one server i didnt make it there on time but started playing on Titan Namalsk and they have helis so i made it np

[@Nitno]

Grats on making it!

[@Dibbs.]

I'll see you on titan

[@mauriciospinardi5109]

Well done friend. Perfect Video. Hoping to get there soon. Cheer from Brazil.

[@Nitno]

Thank you Mauricio! Good luck on your journey to A3! :)

[@themrbobross]

thanks for the video. I have a character on a lower pop im gonna stock up on cooked meat, try and find an APSI and give this a go!

[@Nitno]

Nice, good luck! It is a rush trying to complete all the steps.

[@mikefufuffalo8487]

This was helpful, thanks! Haven't done it yet, but now I know how =)

[@Nitno]

Good luck! And remember a gas mask!

[@ColeChafin]

I worked so hard to get here and nobody told me I would choke to death as soon as I got there. All that work for asphyxiation 🤣

[@Nitno]

Aw dang!!!

[@Royal-xr7gt]

Just happened to me, how do I avoid this? or is it just a timed thing

[@Drie_Kleuren]

this almost looks like some easter egg from treyarc zombies XD

[@Nitno]

Haha :) I feel ya.

[@AloneShiny]

Hope you get more sub soon braaaaaaah

[@Nitno]

Thank you Yashi! I really appreciate it.

[@AloneShiny]

@@Nitno 😗😘😘

[@morbiustimelord]

got there just in time to watch the ball shoot up in the air...

[@Nitno]

Ah dang!!!

[@TedzFun]

The return wormhole wasn't formed when I entered A3, the wormhole took time to form - likely it forms during near the end of the storm cycle.

[@Nitno]

ahhh

[@andrewfraser7818]

3:28 hi mr. bear bear

[@Nitno]

haha totally unplanned!

[@xannybarstar]

Hey man great videos! Just wondering where one would find the APSI helmet?

[@Nitno]

Thank you! I do believe it's just a random chance at military bases. They seem to be relatively rare.

[@xannybarstar]

@@Nitno Thanks so much man! I hope good fortune comes your way :)

[@jamesturner4090]

I find mine in A2, I get 1-2 almost every time I go there.

[@Nitno]

@@jamesturner4090 Nice, good tip James, thanks!

[@mav307_]

nice vid. any info on recent content update to Namalsk m8 ? i've heard of some keycard on Submarine .. etc

[@Nitno]

Yep new vid coming out soon! You've got the most of it.

[@slidewineder3953]

thanks big poppa, subbed to this old video gonna see if u have some new shit

[@Nitno]

Hey hey, thanks for checking it out!

[@DowntownEdwin]

Hello Nitno, thank you so much for the video. May I ask is this Athena feature available on all the Namalsk map/servers? Or do I have to join a specific Namalsk server with specific mod in order to play this feature? Thank you so much

[@Nitno]

Most servers should have it. It's a vanilla Namalsk thing. Some heavy modded servers might disable it, but thats probably rare.

[@DowntownEdwin]

@@Nitno Thank you sir

[@mike_bronson3850]

athena under ground good place to look for that api mask??

[@jigga2phresh]

I watch Smoke on stream play this a ton but I don't know the background of it at all. Is there some sort of backstory to all of this or are these just cool places to explore on this map?

[@Nitno]

Smoke is my favorite streamer! There is a lot of background to it. Here is the Story Trailer from the Creator "Sumrak": kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4eyopVvoLGeoqc there are also I believe 3 documents around the map with additional lore.

[@Nitno]

@Aaron T Excellent write up! Thanks for that. Yes I'd love to read the full story.

[@gumpable]

@Aaron T Pretty sure the lore to Namalsk is NOT canon for DayZ, as it is not an official mod. While the lore is cool, there is no official connection between Namalsk and the events that took place to create whatever actually happened on Chenarus.

[@bigpig187]

Is there something to do in the beam/generator room in A3 ? There is a big red button on a control pannel that ressemble the one in A2

[@Nitno]

At this time, 5/20/2021, no there isn't. There could be new mechanics in the future though!

[@SanderPL]

Also, what are for "NAC Access card's" ?

[@Nitno]

Sure thing, so I cover this in my Lantia (A-4) video as well. They are basically 1 of 2 parts needed to get to Lantia. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKuUh5-PaJ5kY9E

[@vudusid8717]

Ok I made it to the A3 bunker but there was no loot there?? I didn't watch this video first so when I came out in the railway tunnel, it was so trippy realising where I was.

[@Nitno]

That is trippy! Yeah I am not sure what happened with the loot there, maybe it was the server you were on that had an issue with loot? Or maybe someone had just been there. Weird. I suppose it is hit or miss depending on the circumstances.

[@chrispools]

Is the anomoly only there during a. EVR storm? Been to where it is meant to be and its just a hole in the ground

[@Nitno]

Yup exactly, only during an EVR storm will that "round orb" be present and available for you to jump through. It will start off as a small orb around the size of a bowling ball, then grow larger as time goes on. Also you will only go to A3 through the portal if someone pressed the button in A2. If noone pressed the button and you jump though the portal it just sends you to a random location on the map.

[@chrispools]

@@Nitno awsome, thanks for the reply

[@Nitno]

@@chrispools Anytime!

[@xyelashe]

@@Nitno is there a way to tell if anyone pressed the button if you already are at A1?

[@MichaelHeyra]

@@Nitno Fuck me so thats what happen to me, there was an EVR storm and I was like fuck it, cuz I was already there. Literally spawned in the middle of nowhere and I Was like, ffs.

[@illo4563]

Can i start the storm somewhere ?Or i have to wait? thx

[@Nitno]

Good question, you have to wait unfortunately. It's a timed event by the server. I believe private servers can also tweak it's frequency. So some have it more often than others.

[@SanderPL]

Dawg, i tried to figure out how to activate machine, thanks to comment section, theres no storm on my server lol, 3 days from my life are gone

[@Nitno]

Aw dang! No storm, that is a pretty big thing to not have. Sorry to hear that! Check out my Lantia video to for more info. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKuUh5-PaJ5kY9E

[@CrazyBlackstoneNR1]

How to start this anomaly in single player? i mean offline mod

[@Nitno]

Sorry I am not sure exactly, might be best to check the Namalsk discord, lots of good info.

[@SanderPL]

Server admin updated and worked! but why i died upon using portal? :(

[@Nitno]

That is odd, you shouldn't die just from using the portal.

[@SanderPL]

@@Nitno is there gas zone on the other side?

[@commerl5748]

Dude I must be brain dead I can't get to this

[@Nitno]

It's not easy at all!

[@zakrajcevich7389]

how often does the storm start?

[@Nitno]

That's hard to give a solid answer. It really can vary, since this is a mod and just about every server tweaks the storm setting, I'd say roughly an hour between storms. Could be more or less. Anyone else that wants to chime in is appreciated.

[@imcaohus123]

wow..........

[@Nitno]

Yeah it is pretty cool!
