10 Tips and Tricks for Surviving:
---------------------------------
Written by SomeNutzGuy
These are 10 simple tips that I picked up in my first 10-20 hours of playing that
will hopefully prevent you from making some of the same mistakes I did early on.
-=Tip 1: Research Prioritisation=-
There are a few perks you'll probably want to prioritise above the others. The
two perk categories I would complete first are 'Worker' and 'Builder'. The 'Worker'
category increases the speed at which you harvest all resources and the 'Builder'
category reduces build costs . Combined these will save you a lot of time farming
so you can have more fun exploring and zombie hunting!
As well as completing those two categories asap I would also pick up 'Zombie
Hunter' (you have to also take 'Animal Hunter' as a prerequisite) which increases
damage to zombies and at least one level in 'Porter' which increases your
inventory size.
Out of necessity you’ll also need to take ‘Junior Engineer’ and ‘Engineer’ as
some of your earliest research because they’re required to make traps.
-=Tip 2: Health, Stamina and Condition=-
The three bars at the top represent ‘Health’, ‘Stamina’ and ‘Condition’.
The first two are self explanatory however ‘Condition’ is different.
‘Condition’ determines your maximum ‘Health’ and ‘Stamina’. ‘Condition’ decreases
over time but you can reverse the effects and return ‘Condition’ to full by eating
certain foods. Most cooked food as well as the ‘Energy Bars’ will work.
-=Tip 3: Have Two Sections for Your Base=-
The reason for this is that the zombies will take the most direct path to you.
If you are not near your important stuff the zombies won’t be either.
Section One: Your HQ where your storage, crafting stations, research table and bed
are. Lightly protected with a trap or two just in case.
Section Two: What I call The Gauntlet. This is where you will build most of your
defenses and have the zombies run through all of your traps.
This way if you have trouble during the night your respawn point and other
important stuff should be kept out of harm's way.
-=Tip 4: Upgrade Your Base Early=-
You’ll absolutely need to upgrade to stone then metal prior to wave six as this is
when exploding fire zombies will arrive. They will burn anything made out of wood
and the explosion will wreck stone. Even before that though, if something goes wrong,
a horde on nights four or five can very quickly destroy wood and things can get out
of hand fast. The resources required to upgrade your base to stone and metal are
fairly low. You can have a decent size base upgraded by night three or four and I’d
recommend doing it sooner rather than later. It might cost you more time in repairs
and rebuilding than the resource farming would have in the first place.
-=Tip 5: Let Traps Kill Zombies=-
In the early game when resources are scarce it’s far more efficient to let your traps
kill the majority of the zombies during the horde. Reloading a trap costs one ‘Tree
Branch’ compared to one ‘Tree Branch’ and one ‘Piece of Iron’ for every five arrows.
So, resources to damage output is exponentially higher for traps. You’ll probably
want to save your iron for nails and building or for arrows while you’re out exploring.
-=Tip 6: Gather Bones and Hide Always=-
The main resources required for upgrading your weapons and accessories are animal
bones, feathers and hide. It’s best to hunt any animal you see on site or you may
find yourself unable to upgrade at some point because you haven’t managed or
bothered to hunt any of the dozen pigeons (as an example) you have seen along the
way. Something to note is that the only way to make ‘Processed Leather’ is with
‘Rabbit Skin’. You’ll want a decent supply of this for later.
-=Tip 7: Place Animal Traps Early=-
It’s a good idea to place a few of each of the three types of animal traps as early
as possible. They catch animals fairly quickly so make sure to check and reload
them frequently. This will give you a steady supply of meat for health regeneration
as well as hide and bones for weapon upgrades throughout the game.
-=Tip 8: Use Cars for Safety=-
Most zombies won’t be able to get to you while you are on top of a car. Due to the
fact they have no path to you if you are on a car, they will either start attacking
random things or wander around aimlessly. This will most likely not work all the
time with particularly large zombies or ones with jumping attacks.
-=Tip 9: Avoid Killing With Headshots=-
In the current stage of development, if you kill an enemy with a headshot ALL of
the arrows in that zombie (not just the ones in their head) will go flying everywhere
when their head explodes. Sometimes you can pick up all or most of the dropped
arrows but often you’ll only be able to salvage a few. This isn’t a big deal later
in the game but early on you’ll want to save those arrows.
The best thing to do is start with a headshot or two then finish them off with a
body shot or melee.
-=Tip 10: Trick to Pick Up Arrows From Unkilled Zombies=-
This might take a little practice and you won’t need this trick frequently but it
might make your life easier in a tough spot. If you are in a position mid fight
where you have run out of arrows you can pick up the arrows from the attacking
zombies without getting hit.
The ‘Take All’ function has a slight delay while you pick the item up. If you time
it right you can ‘Take All’ while a zombie with arrows in it is running towards you
and you’ll pick up the arrows stuck in the zombie, along with whatever else you were
picking up. If you keep your last two arrows for this, you can shoot them both into
the ground in front of you which will enable you to use the ‘Take All’ function.
Hopefully these tips help to keep some of you alive! Happy surviving!
Hunting Uniques Tips:
---------------------
One tip would be increasing the world zombie amount to max.
By my experience it add to the chance of mobs dropping unique.
Also the day progress might be one of the factors on the quality/ class of unique
you can get.
As for the newest update. I started farming the 1st to the 3rd boss for days on
day 5 of our game. With atleast 200% drop and sometimes 290% if i change my weapon
before the boss dies, one thing i observed was the 1st boss drop more of his own
unique items, compared to the 2nd and 3rd boss.
Considering the 1st boss has 4 unique item of its own. The chances are a bit high.
But for the other uniques.
I find the 3rd boss DG gives more unique. if your going on the shortest path to
the 3rd boss, youll encounter 6 heavies, and around 45+ soldiers per reset.
1 weapon locker that only respawn armor parts, and 2 lockers that only respawn
weapons. The heavies actually gave me more red items compared to that 3rd boss.
Now for the kinds of weapon i did get from that DG was mainly on day 5 was red
pickaxe and wood axe and the my 1st knuckle.
* Day 7-9 was pickaxe, woodaxe, stinger (mostly), 1 bow.
* Day 10-15 was still the same pickaxe, woodaxe, bow, stinger, 1 spear.
And ohh bow the knuckle.
* And on day 18 me and shadow both got the battle axe. Shadow got it on a normal
locker, and i got it on the boss.
I dont want to mislead anymore, and this is only by my experience on the unique.
Zombie Animals Locations:
-------------------------
To find lions, head south. They usually hang out there. Don’t forget to pack some
heat-resistant drinks for the journey.
You’ll often spot zombie lions near villages or streets, especially before sunset.
If you’re lucky, you might stumble upon one while exploring the desert area after
crossing the bridge.
As for zombie bears, they’re all over the snow biome.
Look for them near main roads, flat areas, or mountain slopes. Riding a bike around
the mountains is a good way to find them.
Another tip: check the houses near the Desert Bank, right after leaving the military
bunker. Keep an eye out there. You might just run into a lion.
