Wooden Long Barns are a solid option but you will need to build walls inside to layer the building's walls as the wooden walls are very thin and players can easily shoot through them and wall bang if you aren't careful. This tip will come in handy if you build in these locations and get online raided and if you need to defend your base. Before you build in these places or anywhere else, ALWAYS check the materials of the walls and penetration values than ammo has in these locations. WOBO has videos on this topic and I would recommend you go check them out. These also come in handy not just for base building, but also situations where you must defend yourself against other players trying to kill you.
The red roof farm shed is a really good group base. Requires 2 walls and that’s it. You can fit a truck or a car and have plenty of space for a couple of tents
Your videos and editing are top notch man just starting my dayz journey earlier today after 3k hours of rust and ran into some guys that wanted to group up cause they’re returning to the game. Lots to learn thanks for your help! Ez sub
I do have a quick question though. When you’re preparing a build site and farming the logs/planks do you just carry them over to the site and drop them in a pile or?
With the church building me and my mate made big gates around the back and front of the church and we could store abar 2 trucks in the front and a few cars and the same in the back and we just used the inside for tents and that would recommend this for a starter base takes time but worth it
my 1st base as solo i built an 2 door airlock inside an 8 storey double watchtower with a huge tent sticking out the side like 50ft up. 1 week it was up, then came on to find overnight raiders took 16 barrels 16 crates and loads of tat. oh they stole all the planks and nails from the walls and stairs leaving just a shell
Rules of official, at some point in time. People are gonna check all buildings listed on the map. Either through pathing or people looking for bases. You're gonna get raided eventually
Marcos you have some very good people there. Was in Brazil 3x in the past year and terrific people sir! Very open minded, polite and helpful to me as an American tourist. Can't say that enough sir! Love Dayz and Nitno's channe too. Still playing games at 54 years old-hehe. Obrigado from America, Gary
Can anyone open those gates to walk into the base? You have to put a digital lock on them to keep outsiders out correct? I haven't done any building myself yet but I have freely gone into some people's base's and stash areas and take their stuff. 😂
I can't decide where to build. I have a camp far north west and I want to start driving things to maybe build a base closer to the coast 🤷♂️it's hard dying and having to make a 2 hour journey
Solid base, just expect some completion for it on official though. Also it can be hard to block off the top windows, so if its a location that they can get on the roof, it can be troublesome.
@@Nitno yes. Seal off the 2 entrances to the ship. Watchtowers built on the top level where gas is non existent to shield from snipers on the hill. Kill zeds to gain more filters. As of 1.17 ZZZ gas masks can be rebuilt using charcoal tabs. Any raiding party will have to have numerous NBC outfits. One for each alt. (Most players can't even come up with one complete suit. Bring more zombies up from n. Berezino and make a crawler army out of them by shooting them in the leg. They'd be hidden by the tall grass and wreck havoc on any raiding party. Grenades can be tossed over the edge down on any raiding party. Unraidable if done right
I am hoping they fix this. They just fixed Shooting through the gate to hit the wood frame. They just haven't fixed explosive damage yet. The problem is the explosion clips though the facade and hits the wood frame behind it. I just saw a dev post that they are aware though. Best you can do now is add layers of walls.
@@Nitno THANK YOU for fast response. is it true making a wall into a gate (with a lock of course) adds HP to take more damage? My base has near 70 walls in a place with 2 MS3 and 2 cars with 2 large military tents and a medium tent and like 30 crates of loot-hehe. it is one of the biggest bases I have ever seen. I have to sleep, but my partner is on another time zone and we even have BC gear ready in case someone attacks with chem so we guard it and run out to play, but we have everything so the fun is kinda not as cool as we have the best everything on a non-modded server-haha.
3:08 someone slliped in by the windows with fences to my garage. Its possible ? But i had a full fences, not only top like on video, and closer to the window on this step higher. Should i fix it, or search a another place ?
Additional layers of walls helps, as mentioned. But yes bases are raid-able, that's the nature of DayZ. Still worth it if you enjoy base building and know going into it, that nothing is permanent in DayZ.

@@xraydog92 you would need a hammer on you and more nails because you loose out on some when you dismatle a gate. Plus you can have two exits out of your base which will fix the issue. Plus if you have good enough gear in your base you can destroy any way or ALT accounts as well can just login and destroy it from behind. It sounds smart but isn't that hard to fix.
Sadly any base with no upper levels like apartments are worthless people can glitch swim under walls into bases and dismantle out like the hanger shown in the first 30 seconds of the video …
Dayz should go back to raid tools for raiding so only doors with locks can be raided. Otherwise base building is totally pointless as it is. Patching windows is only gonna save you from a few grenades.
Base building on official servers is dumb. I built a 5 gate base and that night it got destroyed. I decided to build empty bases to mock the raiders and just drop crates with my loot in ponds around the map. They never get hit...
what great timing, my friends just bought the game
Perfect! Enjoy and best wishes on your first base together!
How did it go with your friends?
Cool dayz is an awesome game. If your intrested in checking out a new server check out The forgotten

Yea bro. I got onlined by dupers in one of these wood barns. They all just shot through the walls and threw nades through the holes

Ahh great tip! That one eluded me on this video. Maybe a part 2 someday!
Just to be raided
@@finnz7786 As is the cycle of life in DayZ, nothing is permanent.
@@Nitno only time my team has lost a base is on a wipe .
@@nic7289 Love to hear it! Heck yeah that is how it is done!
I always love the warehouse with the large and quiet blue doors. Only one entrance and the inside is huge.
Agreed that is a solid place to make a base!
I just stumbled upon this looking for stuff to build on my Xbox games, and I noticed Nitno replied to every comment. Quality trait for an uploader.
Thanks man! Best wishes on your DayZ sessions.
yeah he's great if you have questions related to the topic
@@shoppapa7238
All really good ideas, nice to see someone mention the windows. I feel like lots of new players don't know about that.
Thanks Trevin! I agree. It actually took me a while too, when I first started base building, to realize that. Pesky windows!
I learned in Fallout 4 building, if you can see outside
Outside can see you 😂🤦♂️👍🏻

I appreciate that! Thanks man.
Top shelf as always.. makes me wanna build as a solo...!...
Justannnn, thanks my friend.
the warehouse in barenzino is a target for groups on pvp servers. its nice to build in but its a huge target.
Good call, trueee.
my 1st base as solo i built an 2 door airlock inside an 8 storey double watchtower with a huge tent sticking out the side like 50ft up. 1 week it was up, then came on to find overnight raiders took 16 barrels 16 crates and loads of tat. oh they stole all the planks and nails from the walls and stairs leaving just a shell
dang that is rough :/
Nice video. Just one issue on a big amount of them…watchtowers… Just make 1/3 of a watchtower and jump over the fences
True, you can double up fences and barbed wire, so they may be able to get over 1, but the next will be trickier. Alas no base is perfect in DayZ.
Far too easy to raid 🏡
Rules of official, at some point in time. People are gonna check all buildings listed on the map. Either through pathing or people looking for bases. You're gonna get raided eventually
True! As in all things DayZ, nothing is forever... unless you are real lucky!

You can boost over most these gates and nades are coming in these windows
True, adding more gates helps, but no base is unraidable.
Thanks for the vid been trying to find a good video on locations for a while
You are very welcome! Hopefully this gives you some ideas.
Can anyone open those gates to walk into the base? You have to put a digital lock on them to keep outsiders out correct? I haven't done any building myself yet but I have freely gone into some people's base's and stash areas and take their stuff. 😂
Yep a 3 or 4 combo lock is needed for Vanilla to lock a gate. On PC with Mods typically a Digital Lock (code lock) is used.
Cement works hall bricks was a biiitch and a half to board up with my faction, but man if I can find a way to send ya pics bro it's dope.
Yeah I'd like to see the pics! Agreed, but I must say with 1.16's relaxed fence placement rules, it was a little easier.
3 story barns are super underrated
Trueee!!
Well done video! Ever considered creating instruction / safety videos for industrial companies? Seems you've got a talent for such a vocation.
Thanks! I have not though about that, but I will google that, sounds interesting!
I can't decide where to build. I have a camp far north west and I want to start driving things to maybe build a base closer to the coast 🤷♂️it's hard dying and having to make a 2 hour journey
Hmm! Check an online map for ideas. It's hard to say any one place is safer than another in DayZ. But sometimes off the beaten path can be helpful.
Whats the best way to go abt adding more gates to some of these big open buildings. Just keep adding layers in guessing?
Yep layers. You can make sort of half-box shapes for the wider parts.
I love this videos of you. Pls consider doing one for livonia.
Good thinking! Thanks!
thx i built my base at the blue doors and wondered why i eep on getting raided lmao so thx
Good luck out there!
@@Nitno thx bro 100% subscribing keep up on the content

Good video. Either I unknownly ran into into your base or someone copied the thing you showed in the video. 3:47
Thanks! Not me, cool to hear though :)
Hey Nitno, Folks Here!
Folks Hey Nitno, Here!
this guy is an evil monster he plays with his camera to the left lmao
hahaha 😈
Best base building is find a dense bush and load it with crates. Had mine coming up to 2 years.
Wow that is a great hiding spot!
@@Nitno trust me every time i log in i expect to see it gone it just never is. Bit hard to store cars though haha
@@Dopeymanthing Ah true, still that is an achievement!
Hey Nitno, what background music you use? Hella chill
Noir Et Blanc Vie - MydNyte
It's from the youtube free audio library (so I don't get any kind of copyright strike haha) Music is a tough thing on YT!
Hey @@Nitno Do you drop in community servers? If so u want to run some Loot Shacks with me and my bro? Thanks
Hey just subscribed CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME THE LOCATION OF “GARAGE BIG” BY THE COAST!!!
There are a few along the coast. Solnichney comes to mind.I could be mistaken but this one may have been near Balota, west of Chenrogorsk.
You should make an update video in Livonia vanilla dlc pack for solo and groups
Great idea actually, added to my list of videos to make!
What do you think about having the cement works hall 1 as a base?
Solid base, just expect some completion for it on official though. Also it can be hard to block off the top windows, so if its a location that they can get on the roof, it can be troublesome.
I firmly believe the hardest base to build is also the hardest to raid. RIFY
Building a base at Rify the ship?
@@Nitno yes

@@Whiskey4myHoz "Unraidable if done right" fixed "Unraidable if defending party is there"
Unfortunately 4 or 5 grenades & you're base is finished. Walls should take 10 nades in my opinion to even be worth building.

The problem is the explosion clips though the facade and hits the wood frame behind it. I just saw a dev post that they are aware though. Best you can do now is add layers of walls.
@@Nitno The issue is I cannot seem to make a layer unless it is 5 feet away. I want at least 3 layers as it is easily breached with 1 or 2.

Anyone know where “cement works hall bricks” are located? need names locations pls
The one in the video is in Vybor, near NWAF. I think there is one in Novo in the NorthEast too. Likely other places as well.
U can build a base with more than just 1 Door u can build towers and tower on tower and wall on wall
always a good idea to have more that one layer.
i know you know alot so i was wondering....
when does official servers reset?
There is no given time yet. It's been confirmed the next patch has no wipe with it.
is basebuildingplus servers worth it? have u tried?
They are, it's a different experience. BBP fixes a lot of issues such as having ceiling so players can't just boost over walls.
Prison island is by far the best place for a base, nothing comes close
Ooo that is a good point. Only thing is you can't drive a car up to it with building materials.
This one isn't in the taste of the usual dayz player but what about a homestead base? Like a proper enclosed community kind of thing.
Could be possible! I know some servers disable base damage too, so there are servers out there you could slowly build a huge community.
Where is cement works mill c building?
Off the top of my head I can think of the one in Cherno, and I think maybe in the NorthEast in Novo, probably others.
3:08 someone slliped in by the windows with fences to my garage. Its possible ? But i had a full fences, not only top like on video, and closer to the window on this step higher. Should i fix it, or search a another place ?
Hrmm I am trying to imagine how they got in then. I am not really sure to be honest
@@Nitno they boosted themselves on the fireplace on this step next to windows from outside
how can i do the dayz "creative mode" ?
its like a cheat ? that u can give urself any item u want ?
It's just having admin controls in your own server and an admin mod like VPP Admin Tools.
Are there response points in this game?
In official/vanilla the only respawns are in the starter zones. On "some" community servers they have "bed respawn" so you can repsawn at a base.
Is there an answer to base swimmers?
I am not sure, I don't talk about glitches. Always hoping for fixes.
If only there weren't so many glitches to get into bases on consoles
I hear it can be rough. Hoping for more fixes this year.
On vanilla all of them would be raided very fast lol

This is a great video. But base building in vanilla DayZ is pointless due to how easy raiding is :/
Thanks Phantom! Maybe one day they will make raiding harder.
its easy to raid all bases :) 1x wall very easy
Thats why multiple layers is important. But I agree. I'd like to see some better mechanics.
@@Nitno multiple layers? and what will you do when the first two gates out of three destroy you and give you a lock there
@@xraydog92 The goal with layers is to make it as expensive as possible, the hope is they only have so many grenades.
@@Nitno You do not understand me. Destroy one gate for you and set up your gate there. how do you get out
@@xraydog92 you would need a hammer on you and more nails because you loose out on some when you dismatle a gate. Plus you can have two exits out of your base which will fix the issue.

Secrets I won't tell

if they got a truck they can just vault inside these bases 😄😄
the truckers
found a church with windows you can’t see through and one door in and out
Nice, solid idea!
Sadly any base with no upper levels like apartments are worthless people can glitch swim under walls into bases and dismantle out like the hanger shown in the first 30 seconds of the video …
I hope this will be fixed. I'd hope on any community server the admin would man the cheater.

I do believe they fixed ... the way... people could get through windows.
