TOP 50 Tips and Tricks for Alpha 21 - 7 Days to Die

[@nateghast6456]

I have a small tip for early game A21: you can put an item in a backpack, garbage patch, or bird's nest and then take the loot without breaking the loot container. You can then mine it for resources like cloth, feathers, or polymer.

[@S1dew1nderNL]

Actually genius, will remember this, thanks

[@84SuperBeast]

that's a good idea for the medicine cabinets as well

[@Tabby_Angela]

Great way to get extra feathers! Thanks!

[@Super_Ammo]

​@@84SuperBeast if it lets you harvest acid this way, 10/10

[@84SuperBeast]

@@Super_Ammo i haven't tested it but according to the video he says the medicine cabinet has to be not looted, but it could just be that it has to still look like the unlooted version. As long as something is still in it then it'll look like the unlooted version

[@SilentEidolon]

With the pill cases; if you harvest the container for acid it will destroy the loot inside. However, if you search it first and exit without taking it, the loot falls out in a backpack when the container is smashed. You can do this with any container that reverts to a broken variant or is destroyed when looted. Allowing you to, for example, harvest trash for a few extra resources. And if you want to avoid the container breaking and leaving the ugly looted variant... just leave a single item like a piece of wood/stone inside and take the loot you want (just dont press R for take all).

[@jimdob6528]

Beat me to it.

[@Orangesherbz]

Good call

[@silvertoy_]

Just a piece of fiber (I’m cheap) works. do this to keep Trader’s looking like new.

[@whorhaydelfuego7190]

Is this acid harvesting thing new in Alpha 21? Because I know in A20 I got plenty of acid from those containers after looting them, and even for blocks that were spawned in as empty.

[@Reverlic]

that's tricky one i like it

[@ricktedder4749]

I dont know if anybody has already said it but once you get the water filter mod you can safely drink murky water and straight from water sorces like rivers but the real bonus is when drinking river/lake or ditch water dont stop drinking when your water is full if its safe to do so drink as much as possible this can give you massive buffer before your water level decreases

[@michaelgreen8851]

Does it work if it's in your hotbar?

[@Tabby_Angela]

​@@michaelgreen8851 this is for the water purifier mod not the water filter you need for the dew collector.

[@GeneralThe3rd]

I tried this a day or two ago and found that the buffer will still tick down if your thirst meter is full, but just like drinking from bottles, it will stop at about 3 gulps and only tick down if it is filling your thirst meter.

[@ricktedder4749]

@@GeneralThe3rd hi I know it tick down fairly quickly but if your in a safe position you can get a water buffer of about 300 to 400 fairly quick and with water being harder to get it eases using your water production for glue ect: it only counts as useful early game when water is like gold dust and of course being able to find or by the water mod and have headgear to fit it to us all down to RNG.

[@Esclef]

another tip: Don't underestimate the power of wooden spikes. When clearing out infested POIs or tier 3-5 POIs even throwing a couple down before waking up the loot room will help you a SHIT TON. When clearing out big buildings always keep a couple at hand!

[@coltonwarren8563]

@@Esclef I bet you forgot about this comment but gns has been using spikes in his newest series so I bet your happy.

[@2strokegaming]

Here’s a tip for everyone. I’ve noticed during clear missions, or any mission where the zombies have a red dot on the compass, the dot will flash red/white when it’s about to go into rage mode. Say you’re attacked by 5 at once and your hacking and slashing at them all, the compass will indicate which ones are about to rage so you can either focus on that particular one or kinda prepare you for a defensive maneuver.

[@TeaInTheMorning-we2kh]

One of the magnum enforcer books also gives you a bonus to bartering if you have a .44 caliber gun in your hand

6:20 I recently discovered this ingame and have been abusing it for loot since then. As a note, if you have anything of yours in that POI, like a base, DO NOT activate the quest marker. All of your things will vanish in the reset. Good video. Very analytic and informative. To abuse poi reset: - have a vehicle to store items - loot poi stash - leave and re-enter game - activate quest - repeat

[@Doofindork]

This is an amazing video! Small tips and tricks like these condensed down really can help everyone from beginners to someone who's played the game for hundreds of hours. I've learned at least three or four things after watching this; Simple things I'll kick myself over for not knowing already and which will save me so much time in the future.

[@dominantruss344]

A tip for harvesting with bone knife or hunting knife: Look away from viscera, then as soon as the animation of the quick attack happens, aim at the viscera, then rinse and repeat. It's a somewhat faster harvest if you get the pattern down

[@donpfoutz625]

One trick I recently found is the broken street lights can be harvested twice. Once on the light bit, then the base bit making it seem like you harvested two separate.

[@tripe2237]

Rocks are so underrated. From day 1 you can go night hunting with nothing but a bow and some rocks sneaking down the middle of the street. Shoot, back away, shoot, back away. Reposition them or get distance with rocks. Or use a rock as a lure. They'll always stop at the spot where you took the first shot, even if you've only moved 10 feet or so. You can kill a bear this way in broad daylight. I've ditched hoards of zombies just by throwing rocks. Duck around a corner, crouch and throw a rock the other way. Just make sure they can hear it hit the ground and can't see you. They'll chase the rock I once ditched about 30 running zombies by jumping off a roof while throwing a rock the other way and crouching when I hit the ground. They all went for the rock, and I sat 20 feet away watching them mill around. Zombies beating your house down and you can't get a shot at them? Throw a rock! Even better if you follow it up with a moly where the rock landed. It's hilarious and you can do it all night long. Take your first molotov reward, go into the city a little before nightfall, clear out a building as much as you need. Break the stairs. When night falls make some noise. Fire a gun, whatever. When you get a good-sized hoard, go to a window and toss a rock into the street. Not too far, make sure they can all hear it. Throw one molly and let them all burn. Yeah, they'll immediately come back to beat on the building and more will come. That's just more XP! Rinse and repeat. Give them time between rocks to get reinforcements and keep making noise. Not keen on night stalking zombies in the street? Find a roof top. Any zombies you see that are too far can be lured with rocks. Take one shot and let them come to you. Chances are they'll stop about 10 or 20 feet away for an easy headshot. Stay crouched, don't make noise when they're coming. Don't shoot at them when they're coming unless they're a good distance away. It won't work 100% of the time, but once you do it a few times, you'll get the hang of it learning when you can shoot or move. Sometimes you can get away with it only a few blocks off the ground and in clear view. Works from day 1 with no stealth ability. I believe they become more aware as the days go by, and you'll need a little more distance, but it'll still work on a 1 story house. Even if they have a path to you it'll work. If they do happen to spot you, they'll already have a couple of stealth bonus arrows in them and be finished off with 1 weapon swipe.

[@S1dew1nderNL]

I'll remember this tip when i'm out exploring in the night while my buddies are cowering in the base waiting for night to be over! I usually just sneak and wait, totally forgot about using rocks as a distraction.

[@doczoff5655]

I've also noticed that if you stealth shoot an animal (bye bye cute fluffy bunny) with a bow, nearby zombies will run to it and start gorging, giving an easy stationary target. Downside if you're low on food is that they're eating your supper. Don't know if throwing a lump of meat has the same effect, I keep forgetting to test this.

[@ralphm4132]

I like to stalk the Wasteland at night with a sniper's rifle, but even more fun is once the zombies really start to spawn in huge numbers, then herding them with rocks and then putting a rocket in amongst them. Now although XP-per-timewise the time taken to herd them with rocks might be just as well spent sniping them individually, one may easily get several thousand XP in one rocket hit and the sheer hilarity sending zomble-gibs in all directions, i feel, makes it worthwhile. In the early game, as mentioned, the scareder you are, the more rocks you should throw. It's amazing how often an unseen zombie that would have been a major problem will be flushed from cover. Just make sure you throw the rock hard, because if you drop it at your feet the zombies will absolutely come...to you.

[@stevdor6146]

I might be the only one who does this, but you can 'pre-dig' a buried supplies quest easily in a flat area, just go directly down from the bouncy ! Mark until you hit stone layer, then clear out a small cave area before activating the quest, the buried chest will appear in the stone layer. People assume the dirt reappears when you activate the quest, but it doesn't (at least in A20 it didnt, haven't checked A21 yet)

[@smaragtdrache2380]

Yeah... it's faster and it still works.

[@badjoke4467]

My go to way of remembering trader day is very simple, just think of the multiples of 3 + 1; you don't have to do mental gymnastics, just go 3+1 = Day 4, 6+1 = Day 7, 9+1 = Day 10 etc

[@Nailer-fuyt]

Yes 2nd grade math 😂

[@epiicslayer3673]

I'm not sure if this is well known or not but i'm an avid bow user and this is how: Stealth, Hit, move away while maintaining stealth (should be far enough that they don't aggro based on proximity), once they reach where you were repeat from step 2. This stealthing away from where you were should give you another opportunity to perform a stealth attack with multiplier and all.

Something that was shown but not explained at 1:25 is that when using a bone knife, the animation is different depending on if you are harvesting or not harvesting. The harvesting animation is very slow, so by starting the animation away from the animal, then moving the cursor mid-swing results in a much faster harvest

[@Johannes00]

13:26 I bet that's because the old system used 3 digit quality numbers and they've "simplified" quality levels now to only single digits but the background math still looks at the old 3 digit system and you get slightly different results based on the rounding.

[@SaiceShoop]

after LS290 it is still sometimes worth going into higher tier POIs. While your getting no boost form your loot stage there is some POIs that are just better to run though if you know how to clear them easy or how to skip large sections of them.

[@jimdob6528]

Also this depends heavily on the type of gear you already have. If you are able to quickly break through a vault door or hatch then several high end POI become a 5 minute raid for their loot stash and most hospitals and factories have their look stashed at the top. Nerd pole your way up there and grab the goods and run.

[@mitchelkral8190]

Quick tip for looting crack a books, just open and take all and once you notice your inventory starting to fill take a second to go through the books. With enough material and a decent horde base I start I almost speed through higher tier POIs so I can get to the main loot because I take a day getting the specific items if I'm low. Enough money and you'll never need to mine for oil shale. Respec your points away from mechanic when you've built all the vehicles. Build 2 of each vehicle and store the copies ?

[@insanityplea5502]

I feel that the most important tip/trick is missing. AIM FOR THE HEAD! Guns, Tools, Melee, Fist, All things do more damage to zombie heads! Oh and a broken leg is better than a dead character depending on your game setup or stage so leaping off a building isnt a terrible idea. EDIT NOTE : Leaping off a building to your death is also a better idea than dying 4 floors up to a swarm as it would be easier to get your bag OUTSIDE than INSIDE.

[@signalsnowtop1746]

Tip for ammo, though can’t confirm so take with grain of salt: when it comes to ammo, don’t be afraid to use HP or AP, especially in the later game. HP rounds use to do less damage to armored targets but I believe now do not have this down fall, instead just doing a ten percent damage boost for the cost of an extra bullet head. AP rounds pen targets, do more damage, but degrade your gun faster and generally cost even more bullet heads and gunpowder. So a good way of looking at it is that HP is just a straight upgrade of normal rounds, while AP is the perfect bullets for hard POI’s that need some prep, or horde night when your sure to have repair kits on hand at your base.

With TFP you never know what's going on. lol However like I said this is part of the *experimental* branch...so I'm willing to bet half of it isn't working like it's supposed to. 😅 Personally I just went in to take a quick look and not much else.

Super great list of information! Loved it! One I'd like to add for a future video perhaps? Gasoline. Seems to have been greatly reduced in A21. With A20 and previous you could scrap any vehicle and get a LOT of gas off of them but now it seems that if the car is a new model and looks trashed, it won't yield ANY gas, but the new ones that look intact will but the gas amount seems to be much less? There are also some of the older models and regardless of condition, they all seem to give gas as well. Any other observations or corrections to what I've noticed? =)

I've yet to see any damage to a dew collector. I had three on a roof during blood moon hordes and a couple on the ground outside. Zombies seem to ignore them. I was wondering about cop puke though but haven't seen any get hit by it yet. Great tips! Zombies don't jump over gaps to reach you like they were before - they go into rage mode and start beating on blocks if you're without a path to you. I used to make them run in loops for an AFK base but that don't work with the latest experimental version.

Bears are great for leather and meat early game. I've had good luck [in the past at least no idea if it's changed.] I would build a "diving board" column up at least 4 blocks, then out the full 8, make sure you have more than 50 stone arrows, and start shooting from the end of the diving board. he will mostly stay below you, occasionally attack trees but rarely go after the support pillar. easy dinner. early game. No matter what weapoin I'm going to play, I always go archery for early game. it's great damage it's at range, and the ammo is very available. ALWAYS crouch, to get that sweet damage multiplier. before long you'll one shot a lot of zombies. the hunting bow has a much better trajectory, making it easier to aim once you learn it's ballistics. Remember; chickens are FULL of feathers! [and pretty easy to shoot.[ Are you a hoarder like me? don't hesitate to set down a storage crate in front of a POI but like Tem said. put it on the roadway. and mark it on the map so you can snag it later. most everything in this game has a use. and being able to go back and nab tons of loot you just...didn't need at the time, but pulled from houses anyway can be great time savings down the road. There are a lot of canned foods that are good for advanced recipes. none more useful than canned peas. I don't know why but at least HALF of the "canned superfoods" use it. shamchowder is one of the few foods that would have a stat buff [whether it does in A21 I don't know yet.] I think I was told that crafting scrap lead into junkturret ammo sells for more. I was not finding that to be the case. can it be confirmed? 300 lead, for 60 dukes or 100 junk ammo worth 300 lead for 60 dukes. [if memory servers.]

I strictly came here because this one had the most views, I’m sure your content is great but I haven’t watched it. I just wanted to voice my opinion.

I understand development and all that but I got this game not knowing what it was when ps4 was in its infancy and this still happens, at least the last time I played it did. This is the last chance I’m giving this game, very fun, very time worthy, but make some decisions.

Small tip for trader days with even simplier math: its a (multiplication of three)+1day (because you start at day 1 and not day 0. So for example: 76 (75 is a multiplication or three +1) its trader day.

[@hinder777]

or just check the trader when visiting, it says on the trade menu what day they restock

[@MaddysHouseofGeek]

Got the notification, clicked and liked. Thank you! I use logs all the time!

[@TalismenG72]

Ahh. The UL base. I loved that one Tem! These videos are awesome as always.

[@JustChillinOnThe5thFloor]

GNS mentioning Navez bridges reminds me of pre 18 Alpha. Bridges were so unstable just walking across the bridges they would collapse. Or building a base on it was ok then a zombie smacks the rail and the base fell in the river or the grand canyon.

[@user-ip6wq7vr7m]

lol ouch...makes for a bad day...good to know though lol.

[@gobokinje9183]

Seen a lot of your videos recently, decided to check the game out again, hadn't played since a couple years back. Only just now learning about the shaped blocks thing lol

[@orpheus..]

Don't feel bad. That's a new thing.

[@Magnathyr]

easier formula for learning if a particular day is a "trader day"..... whatever day you are on, divide that by 3, and if you have a remainder of 1, then it's a trader day.

If you wrench chairs and couches, there’s a chance to get old cash from them. I’ve usually got between 2-3 dollars per chair but it’s not always guaranteed either

[@The-Two-Five]

Great video, I had a bit of a knowledge gap about Trader stage and Trader specialization, thanks for the knowledge!

[@EquinoxVideo]

That was a quick watch but I bet it was a TON of work for you to put together. Thanks!

[@louiscyphre6134]

Quick waypoint and its removal are so helpful to know about! Also, you can select one of your custom waypoints in the list, then select a button towards the top (name escapes me) to highlight the waypoint on map and compass.

[@tobiasfentz881]

Thank you for the tips! Very informative.

[@Random-fl4ow]

best tip on alpha 21 ive seen so far thanks

[@kadewiedeman3127]

I'm glad they added the anti-vehicle vulture thing, actually. Horde nights were painfully cheapened by the ability to just take a 15 minute drive and be totally safe.

[@DBWave94]

How about letting people play the game how they want to instead of policing it like it's an MMO?

[@kadewiedeman3127]

@@DBWave94 How about turning horde nights off, then. Might work out better for you than bitching about a feature of the game that you are fully able to opt out of.

[@meh.7640]

omg i finally know how to get mechanical parts! i'm like level 30 and don't even have a bicycle! i put all the mechanical parts i found into a workbench and can't for the life of me find two more for a bicycle

[@ВалентинНскж]

an absolute best way to beat the horde is by placing ladders to blocked path to roof, and have a platform 3 by 3 2 blocks down from the blocked hatch or shape. Have a hole right next to blocked entrance and use grenades. Zombies will gather on platform. 1 grenade = 6 kills. Remember to repair the shape or hatch. Very cheap resource wise, very effective. Better work as u place ladders inside building.

[@siauciunaite]

Wow. Thanks so much. Been playing since 2015, but learned more than a few things.

[@darry3440]

ohj my |||||Karking god Mate i learn so much from you im almost 7DTD veteran but most of things in this video i didnt know thank you soooooo so sooo much

[@davidgillon2762]

If you're chasing a chicken or rabbit, don't use a knife, use a spade, the reach is far better. Works vs crawlers too. You can use a spear instead of a spade, of course, but most people carry a spade around, while not everyone used spears.

[@yeyoman834]

12:22 I got to tell this to Glock9

[@randyshamblin232]

also if you are playing a map that has no rad damageand you don't take damageafter entering the area, you still have that anoying green haze to deal with. to temporerally remove the green haze, simply log out and back in while inside the rad zone. it will stay clear until you exit the zone.

[@dridda9117]

dude ty i hate that about some zones, i flew my gryocopter into the snow area today and was instantly BLINDED, had to crash land lol

[@brodriguez11000]

How do you turn off that police car alarm? That hay bale tip sounds like a Assassin's Creed reference. "blue for lead", big help with the recipe change for robotic ammo. I also found being on a vehicle when the trader closes keeps one from being ejected. Skill, instead of perk books don't appear to have the "read" icon. Miner 69er should be an asset for ease of destroying ALL blocks.

[@havabuca1187]

You can loot all (R) on dew collectors even tho there is no text saying you can

[@funkygandalfcat4259]

7:36 POI Zombies will respawn even if you have a Claim Block or Bed, every 30~35 days, this happened to me in every map I played, the only thing that prevent 100% the zombie from respawing is putting a block(can be anything really) that will fill the same space the zombie usually spawns.

[@whiteraven550]

6:32 i wonder why he included that info 😂
