Deadly DayZ
Hardcore Livonia survival where everything you wear, use and live in gets better as you do.
Everything is progressive
One four-level ladder runs through all crafting: Crude, Normal, Salvaged, Masterwork.
- Armor: Crude 60% protection; Salvaged 125% and 2x durability; Masterwork 150% and 2.5x.
- Ammo: damage 70% / 100% / 115% / 130%.
- Guns: 11 craftable guns at all four levels, plus 5 reward rifles you can upgrade. Crude is worn and can jam; Masterwork has 2.5x durability and almost never jams.
- Tools: Crude pot, pan, shovel, pickaxe, sickle, hatchet and saw from scrap; the hatchet climbs to Masterwork.
- Recipes: 368 in the catalogue (225 ours) plus 54 gun build and upgrade recipes.
Bases
Stick shelter, camo or leather shelter, civilian tent, large tent, Mobile Base, large Mobile Base with its own fence.
- Homes cannot be destroyed or raided. PvP stays on at home.
- Each home guards a 10 m zone (large base: about 20 x 20 m) and is a respawn point.
- Farm animals and farm loot in your zone are protected.
- Mobile Base storage grows in stages: weapon racks, magazine shelves, loadout hooks, crate racks.
Skills
- 20 tracks, 135 perks, one shared XP pool. Everything you do feeds it.
- Tier gates: 150, 450, 1,350, 4,050, 12,150 XP. 89 tiers in all.
- XP, tiers and perks are never lost on death.
- Press B to open (rebind: Options > Controls > Deadly DayZ > Open progression screen).
Crafting and scrap
- Hold a tool, drag scrap onto it, scroll the list, hold to craft. Any tool down to a kitchen knife works; worse tools wear faster (2% per craft hacksaw, 16% knife).
- Materials count from pockets, the ground (2 m) and open containers (3 m).
- Scrap comes from salvaging wrecks, tyres and fabric. Bank it at an ATM: banked scrap survives death.
Hunting, tracking and taming
- Press J for the tracking list (Options > Controls > Deadly DayZ > Open tracking list).
- Pathfinder range: 500 m small game, 1,250 m medium game, 2,000 m predators. Foraging and taming (horses, chickens, pigs) use the same distances.
Quests, records and firsts
- 16 quest chains, ranks I to V: 80 ranked quests.
- Leaderboards, trophy weight records for 27 species, server firsts and 29 achievements.
Hardcore start
You wake in Survivor Town with a kitchen knife and a bandage. Cold and wet clothing can end a run. Guns, ammo and building materials are rare near town. Restarts at 00:00, 06:00, 12:00 and 18:00 UTC.
