Loot is your lifeline, and it is what makes DayZ so much fun. Finding rare items, using them, and then dying are what makes the game so much fun. Different types of loot are everywhere in DayZ, there are weapons, medical supplies, and the general necessities of life, and these are all around the map of Chernarus.

Residential/Civilian

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] wrote Civilian loot has a bit of everything. Often it has a good chance to spawn Food and small chance to spawn low tier Weapons. A lot of basic Equipment can be found here including the Map and Compass.

Churches
Office buildings
Supermarkets
Houses
Apartment buildings

Helicopter Crash Sites

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] wrote Helicopter Crash Sites can be found in various locations throughout Chernarus and are most commonly found on open fields or on hillsides.

Blood is one of the main necessities for survival, and the DayZ mod does not do as good of a job when it comes to maintain blood. Although you can get infections in the mod which could cause you to die really fast.

What is Sepsis?
Sepsis is a lethal infection that you can get when getting hit by zombies. It goes through four stages...

Stage 1: The first 15 minutes
You cannot pass the infection to others
You do not take blood damage
You have a warning blood icon to show infection

Stage 2: 15 minutes - 22.5 minutes
You cannot pass the infection on
You lose 1 blood per second
You have the normal blood loss icon

Stage 3: 22.5 minutes to 30 minutes
You cannot pass the infection to others
You lose 2 blood per second
Normal blood loss icon

Stage 4: After 30 minutes you become fully infected, you can transmit the infection to others, you lose 3 blood per second and your screen will shake. On disconnect you will become infected.
A Sepsis Bandage is used to help prevent bleeding from this condition. Anti-biotics are required to cure.

---

Regaining Blood
To regain blood you can either eat food or you can use blood bags. In the mod different blood types are non existent so it is a lot easier to regain blood.

Table of Eating
Canned Goods = 200 blood
Raw Rabbit = 400 blood
Raw Cow= 100 blood (6 raw beef per animal) so 600
Raw Wild Boar= 150 blood (4 Raw Bacon per animal) so 600
Raw Sheep= 100 blood (4 raw mutton per animal) so 400
Raw Chicken= 100 blood (2 raw chicken legs per animal) so 200
Cooked Rabbit= 1600 blood
Cooked Cow= 600 blood x 6 = 3600 blood
Cooked Bacon= 400 blood x 4 = 1600 blood
Cooked Mutton= 400 blood x 4 = 1600 blood
Cooked Chicken= 400 blood x 2 = 800 blood

Blood Bags, need a another player to give you the blood, but it restores the blood to maximum.

Origins - Set on a new map named Taviana, it is different from DayZ in that there are two different sections to it. The main island which is very scarce on items, and then you have "Salvation Island" which is guarded heavily by the rich.

Breaking Point - More vehicles, weapons, and a lot of other cool new features like a power grid.

2017 - Resources are much harder to find, and vehicles have been nerfed incredibly.

Epoch - Set many years after the original infection, and people are starting to come back. There are now merchants, and a actually currency in the game.

Blood is one of the main necessities for survival, and DayZ does a good job at showing how it is both lost and regained.

Blood Levels and Effects
High Saturation - Healthy
Moderate Saturation - Has lost some blood
Low Saturation - May fall unconscious
No Saturation - Easily falls unconscious, very hard to distinguish objects.

Ways In Which You May Loose Blood
Gunshot Wounds
Hit By A Zombie
Hit By A Melee Weapon

Ways To Regain Blood
Become Healthy - Eat and Drink a lot.
Blood Transfusion - In the mod it was much easier to give one of these, but in the standalone it is much more difficult as there are different blood types. Here is a table...

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] wrote [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Saline Injection - These will immediately set the player to the max blood type, these are very rare, and also require you to find a IV Start Kit as well.

Thirst is now a big thing as in the standalone game you now spawn thirsty and water is a very hard resource to find. When you spawn you want to find the closest towns water pump. You then want to drink as much water as you can until your character says that he feels stuffed because if you drink to much you may become sick.
Your character will say many things which indicated the level of thirst that he is at.
Here is another table...

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Hunger is another element to survival, but it is not as hard to maintain. The problem is many food items are located in cans which require a sharp object to open such as a axe or a can opener.
As it was with water if you eat to much food you may become sick. Also if your character is hungry do not just going around eating every food item you see as many fruit items may be rotten, and if you eat to many rotten things your character will have food poisoning which can only be cured by charcoal tabs.

Energy is a new feature in DayZ standalone, and what it does is very influential towards your survival. Combined with water they are the key elements to you regaining blood. If your energy is below 100 you will start to lost blood. If it is above 3500 with 3000 water you will regain blood. The ways in which you can regain blood is by drinking soda, and eating food.

Broken bones happen usually when falling off a reasonably high structure. This will then allow you to not be able to run or walk, and you will have to crawl. The legitimate way to fix this is pain pills or morphine, but an easier way to fix this in standalone is to stand-up, log out of the server, and then join a new one and you will be healed and able to walk.

Status effects are the problems that will be notified to you by the game itself. Whether it says you are thirsty, hungry, bleeding, or etc. This is how you treat them.
Thirst- Drink water
Hunger- Eat fresh food
Bleeding- Bandage with rags or bandages
Unconsciousness- Epi-pen
Pain- Painkillers or vitamins
Broken Bones- Morphine
Cold- Fireplace, running, take shelter

The way clothing works in DayZ standalone is it allows you to carry more stuff the better clothing you have. It is a big part of the game as it can also help you stay alive depending how camouflaged you are.
Clothing items include...
Backpacks
Shirts
Coats
Jackets
Hoodies
Cargo Pants
Jeans
Army Pants

Another thing about clothing is that a lot of shirts and hoodies can be torn into rags to bandage yourself up when bleeding.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Restraints are another new feature to DayZ standalone. Restraints most commonly used are rope and handcuffs. You are able to restrain another player when they are motionless. Once restrained they can only be freed by either breaking out or a key in the cast that it is handcuffs. Once used both the handcuffs and key will be destroyed.
When a player is restrained you can take there gear, and also there blood.
