How to Find THE BEST LOOT on Sakhal | A Guide for DayZ on Xbox, Playstation, & PC

[@AmishZed]

Some people in the comments have said they have found guns on the no spawn list on official servers. They are listed as 0 in the files but an update could have rolled out already or maybe a player server hopped from another map and dropped those guns.

[@eden-u7c]

Characters are consistent between all official servers. They simply had another charter that played Livonia or Chernarus

[@DylanG-j1r]

Step one get rags Step two make gloves and face covering Step three repair them to worn with more rags. Step four find rope or human intestines long stick, fishing hook, worm Step five make fishing pole Step six go fishing Step 7 cook fish (eat when warm not hot) Step eight make a torch Step nine make your way to fresh water Step 10 you can now start looting.

[@matty92k]

Step 11 get shot by geared wanker lol go back to step one

[@hemogoblin69]

I don't do all that tbh. I just look for a way to make a fire and look around

[@B1aKWoLf]

yeah i just make the gloves then a fire, making a quick fire first reduces hunger and hydration loss then either go fishing or find other food

[@Barcxde-]

You make it sound complicated… it’s not. It takes like 10 minutes to get to your step 10. It’s even easier on full pop servers right now since there’s a lot of dead people in spawn towns

[@ezequielarismendez92]

I think they nerfed the torch

[@modelrailwaynoob]

I got a car, FAL and built a base on day 1. Now I have three cars and a bigger base with 11 barrels inside. I am now playing another server and exploring more of the map. No disease yet but make the most of fishing, animals and finding cooking pots. There seems to be quite a few cars and boats. It's better for base building as less ammo for breaking in and so far, I have only found 1 C4 charge.

[@AmishZed]

Flying around on the private server to film this I was blown away by the number of cars I saw

[@isurgical9029]

FAL doesn't spawn on sakhal, This man has been marked as a known liar! Don't believe anything he has to say.

[@modelrailwaynoob]

@isurgical9029 You need some education, so I will offer your lesson free of charge kid. The FAL doesn't spawn on vanilla but can and does on community servers if enabled. You noobs are aways so predictable. Ask the player I killed with it after I broke his leg. He shot at me and missed about 20 SKS shots. You know Dayz is for 18 years and older, right? Stick to Minecraft kiddo.

@@AmishZed yeah I am tired of the fires already lol I haven’t explored everything yet lol I just get bored anymore after awhile. It’s a cool map tho.

[@cc371]

Thanks Ish!!

[@winterautumnfishing5215]

I like the loot pool on this map i just feel like you should be able to find AKM and AK-74 at tier 2-3 military areas, this and I don't see why they didn't include the VSS and AS-VAL

[@AmishZed]

Maybe the 74 but I think the AKM has higher shock damage and is better at range so I’m okay with that being bunker only But it’s really easy to get to tier 3 and pretty easy to get to 4 so I don’t think it’s that hard to get an AK74u and then upgrade to a full sized

[@winterautumnfishing5215]

@@AmishZed true, the AKs are really overdue for a few tweaks, AKMs should be more common (without the drums ofc) and do slightly more damage upclose, but have worse accuracy, range, armour penetration and recoil, there's a reason the AK-74 replaced it IRL lol

[@numpteenutz9944]

great video

[@liamriddell8461]

I'm hoping since this map mainly spawns eastern weapons they'll add more soviet weaponry to the game in the next update

Yup already got M4 60RD found a Cave gonna live in it on official servers You get Russian guns in the bunker only I got a KAM Normalized suppressor 75RD fully loaded that bad boy up VSD SV89 Edit: forgot to add there is Ammo boxes as well that spawns inside the bunker.

[@STX_Hyperion]

Goodluck. WOBO put out a video showing all the caves.

[@41italia]

best way to get loot is to grab a boat and head out to the islands looking for containers on the shoreline. found 2 M4s, a DMR and a KA-101 with mags in a matter of 30 mins.

[@nerva7593]

Thank you for video

[@DigitalHi5]

I haven't really looked at the tier list much... just realized Tier 3 is 2km away from spawn...

[@AmishZed]

Yeah man that town is so OP. Someone here said they found 4 SKSs there

[@shabazz717]

I remember the Livonia loot root when it first came out. It got me through that map.

[@AmishZed]

It’s been really cool returning to guides. I think I stopped them because they seem so daunting at first. But when you get going and they come together it’s very satisfying. More to come!

[@B3ars_333]

Amazing

[@AmishZed]

Hmmm I’ll keep an eye out for this. You think it could have been dropped?

[@LexxxCross]

Thanx for a great guide! Do U know where to find NVG headstrap?

[@Visionism]

I left a pile of SVDs in the middle of that bunker. I didn't even put the landmine under there. That must have been someone who came later after I was gone.

[@AmishZed]

How kind of you 😇

[@mad_impactt]

Dude I found a LAR in a medic truck in the southern peninsula harbor on a vanilla server.

[@sk8ermGs]

Someone trolling you from Cherno servers

[@mad_impactt]

Seriously, who would do that ? And no, you don't drop 4 LAR on a serv to "troll someone". Never found a mag tho

[@xykosis8394]

I dont know if this has changed or not, but i play official on the Playstation and out of the list that "doesnt spawn" I've found the glock, derringer, famas, aswell as the pioneer (assuming thats the scout)

[@AmishZed]

Yeah I'm hearing this a lot. Something must have changed or ppl are bringing guns over by server hopping from other maps. Not sure, I just listed what was set to 0 in the server files

[@derstiefonkel67]

Can I only find rifle scopes in the containers? like atoc or something

[@AmishZed]

Atoc/acog are NATO scopes so probably containers only. I’ve definitely seen backup iron sights for m4s on the mainland though

[@mark35720]

I can't tell if the pronunciation of советское was on purpose to troll or something lol but great vid anyways it was very helpful😄

[@17MrLeon]

I wonder what is the pint picking up M4 when there is no ammo spawning for it anywhere on the main island not even the military one.

[@AmishZed]

You’d just have to really loot those containers I guess. Or maybe get lucky with some 5.56 in those ammo crates in the bunker

Aww man Hello mate.

Limiting the weapons is a bad move imo. Why hold back content and limit options?

[@AmishZed]

Yeah I don’t really get it. It’s a smaller map I suppose but not that small that it can’t fit all the weapons

[@PLHD3]

Doesn't go into the tier 4 zone. I've been there several times and have only ever found KA-74s or military weapons from tier 2-3. So it's not worth going there. Better go loot the containers on the beach or go to the bunker

[@needbettername8583]

The AK47 and VIKHR are so good on this map, finding a AKM requires entering the bunker, and you need a boat to get the good western loot. Just a warning, the filter bottles seem to wear out faster than canteens. And ive not tried locking anyone in the bunker yet, but its on the cards!
