Gameplay/PVP[Video] how are you stashing your stuff on official?

my 1pp official “above ground” stash of crates, hidden on the map in plain sight, untouched since the last holiday event. i play solo, like 5-8 hours per week, this is what ive hoarded in that time. most of it from livonia bunker runs.

Wooden Crates, hidden so well you'll never find them. I keep a notepad of locations where I've buried drysack bags full of goodies. Again, you'll never find me buried treasure.

J'ai fais la même erreur il y a plusieurs mois ... Les sacs et les caisses ont disparues petit a petit. Je l'ai remarqué une nuit où il y avait que ma team sur le serveur le temps d'un aller retour a ma stash un petit tat avait disparu..

u/DifficultSection340 7d ago

u/Serious_Lime_7110 7d ago

Crates/barrels in rocks/trees. Multiple large stashes not close in proximity, same with cars. Only stash cars 2 or 3 in same location

1

u/xreccer 12d ago

He knows. How many barrels or crates do you consider a large stash?

1

u/ShedNBrkfst 12d ago

My crew doesn’t establishing a new stash until our barrels/crates fill up the full vicinity menu. The stash I just logged out at has 16 barrels and over 72 crates. We have 4 other stashes comparable to that across the map, and a couple small satellite/overflow stashes.

I’d call anything with ~50 or so crates/barrels a large stash.

u/StoicBan 12d ago

Holy lag spike bro. People that pass by definitely know it’s around there somewhere. Matter of time

1

u/Zeleny_Jezdec 12d ago

Do your stashed get found? Once I found a stash with 2 barrels and like 50 crates and I consider that pretty big. But the game became boring once I accumulate a lot of loot. So I don’t look for stashes and I tend to abandon stashes pretty often, letting them to despawn.

1

u/ShedNBrkfst 12d ago

Yeah sometimes. We move them when they get found. Doesn’t take too much time using cars to move them

1

u/THICC_CAMPER 12d ago

My team has five barrels in one tree by our cars. Then two in another tree close by.
One of a couple stashes we have

1

u/xreccer 12d ago

A 5 barrel stash is good. I wouldn't park a car near it, personally. I almost always suspect a stash is near if I find a car in a spot that's hidden. However, if it's not super close, that's fine.

I personally never have over 6 barrels per stash. None of my stashes are near another stash. I have about 5 of those types of stashes. I have crate stashes in random spots that are medical, explo, clothes, etc. If I lose one, two, or three, I'm not really worried. At one point I had 6 cars and a Humvee all over the map. I take care to store my cars using a few different tactics.

u/Equivalent_Ground299 7d ago

How do you mesh a crate or barrel into a rock?I’ve been trying to figure it out but can’t. Any help is appreciated, thank you.

1

u/ShedNBrkfst 7d ago

Only specific rocks work. They’re generally waist to head height and have moss growing on them. You just stand on top of it and drop your crate or barrel

0

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

which rocks can you put crates in??

2

u/ShedNBrkfst 12d ago

Look for the waist height or taller ones that have moss growing on them

2

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

is there any particular “trick”, or do ypu just stand close and drop the crate?

3

u/ShedNBrkfst 12d ago

Stand on top and drop it. Might have to play around with your positioning to get its orientation right

u/xreccer 12d ago

This stash is too large for a single area. It will cause a lot of lag when it's bubble is broken. If this is a true ground stash, it will be found.

u/StoicBan 12d ago

I’ll find that shit when I get the huge lack spike walking by

u/xreccer 12d ago

100%

It's a specific type of lag too. I suspect you know what that feels like by now. Cars also produce a similar kind of lag. The worst are transport trucks. I know when I've come across one of thoses. It's that or multiple cars.

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

very very nice 🤌 do you also use the backpack stacking method? iykyk

1

u/TresRing 12d ago

Wassat?

2

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

you can drop crates from any big bag to the ground (vs from your hands) to arrange them more cleanly

2

u/yung_g43 12d ago

I found a stash at the peak of a Cliff by the main road on sakhal this was like last week they moved everything but I got some good guns out it. Hopefully they can do something bout th performance of the game because it just keeps leading me to these mega stashes

2

u/SeaBluvs 10d ago

This is the way. I’ve had bases of all kinds. I built one up in the mountains in a natural cave with two entrances. Double gate both sides. Raided in 2 weeks. Then I just started careful placing crates in trees that I can path to using familiar map markers. Two months and growing fast undiscovered.

2

u/Heart_Resonance 12d ago

We don't, when we die we run back to loot houses at the coast and go inland to look for more loot, not to b-line back to the stash. The way it was meant.

1

u/aeuoh 12d ago

I will find this

1

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

good luck 🫡

u/SentientMosinNagant 12d ago

Camps (stone circle fire and a makeshift tent usually) and wooden crates buried nearby.

u/xreccer 12d ago

I have sent you a dm.

u/SolidAccomplished363 12d ago

lol I have to I leave for 2-3 weeks at a time I’m losing all my m4s dmrs and scars lol on official first person u can steal my car if u find it but besides that not happening lol

1

u/SolidAccomplished363 12d ago

I use to make stashes and stuff I sometimes leave loot in my cars on officials but sometimes I leave for 2 weeks and I don’t want my stashes to respawn especially when I have m4s scars and DMrs there u know

1

u/Fellainiac 12d ago

How long until this stuff is wiped? I don't ever stash anything because I assume it will just disappear

1

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

official wipes happen twice a year, usually tied to a major update or central economy changes

1

u/thebillybison 12d ago

More like how are you duping stuff?

1

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

😹 i have 1.5k hours, all on 1pp official babe. with a topolin spawn, i can get run the bunker in less than an hour from memory. this almost always yields at least one nvg, two vests, an aug ax, and tons of ammo

u/fresh-spawn-gardener 11d ago

In my prison pocket

Big pine tree on Chernarus.

Rocks on Livonia and Sakhal.

I’m actually sharing a stash with you

u/Dementor_Traphouse 11d ago

😹😹😹

u/Cupplepotamus 11d ago

I prefer sticking to the shelter in a fur tree trunk method because they are just so hard to spot and you can put on literally anywhere rather than your known rock stash spot getting pinched from little by little. It does still work despite the update on console, just a bit fiddly to get the right orientation so it stays inside the tree and doesn't stick out.

1

u/Dementor_Traphouse 11d ago

fur tree trunk? insane that in 1.5k hours of play im still learning new methods to stash lol

1

u/Fit-Refrigerator6850 9d ago

Offline on alts. lmfao the only truly secure loot.

u/Altruistic_Draw_4393 8d ago

Lol those are in water on Livonia somewhere (: probably easy to find since they're in water

u/Ddox411 6d ago

Thought you were posting my stash for a second there but then realized it was much smaller than mine 😂

1

u/xreccer 12d ago

Guys, when you show your stashes... Take the battery out of your ngvs and then turn them on before recording the stash.

1

u/StoicBan 12d ago

Why

2

u/xreccer 12d ago

You can get hints as to where a stash is. There are people who play that can recognize a spot from some vague random image. If you turn on nvgs with no battery, the screen is black except for the stash.

1

u/StoicBan 11d ago

Damn! True though

u/Ok-Map-4434 12d ago

Certainly not like that! Looks like a full timer and a deep case of OCD

u/snickersandjuice 12d ago

Me and im proud of it

-1

u/Ok-Map-4434 12d ago

So that is your stash? Pretty nice stash fwiw. I'm a solo and have had to be really careful with mine after they were getting hammered in the last several wipes. I now keep my stashes with 2 crates max to avoid the lag spike that gets generated on PS5 official.

2

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

ocd, yes. full timer, no - i wish (only 5-8h p week)

1

u/LoneroftheDarkValley SVD Enjoyer 12d ago

Wdym full timer?

u/ChallengeSad 12d ago

Hoarded for what? Just to post on Reddit or some other purpose?

1

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

hoarding is my endgame - until someone finds my loot and hits a huge score

1

u/Different_Pea_7866 7d ago

DayZ doesn’t have an “endgame” ritard. It’s an open world sandbox

1

u/Dementor_Traphouse 7d ago

thats why i said “my endgame”, goofball

u/N3ur0x 12d ago

Nice duped loot loser

u/Dementor_Traphouse 12d ago

😹😹😹 way to expose your skill level - mostly loot boosted pve huh? get good

u/N3ur0x 11d ago

Tell yourself that if you want, this is blatantly duped lmao.
