German English In this short guide, we show you how to build a shelter in DayZ. There are also three different variants of this shelter that we will also present. Improvised Shelter - Guide TLDR: As mentioned earlier, you can choose between different shelters. There is a shelter covered with leather, one made from tarp, and a shelter made entirely of green branches. All variants of shelters require the same basic resources to build the framework: Before you build the shelter, you need an "Improvised Shelter Kit." You can build this kit using 4x sticks and 1x rope. Hold the items in your hand and scroll until you get the option to build the shelter kit. Let's start with this variant because it's the easiest to build. Once you have set up the kit, you have to insert a total of 50 short sticks in the material depot. The same goes for the four long sticks! You can already build the Stick Shelter now. If you want to set up another variant, you have to add something - more on that in a moment. The advantage of this version is that, thanks to the foliage, it is very well camouflaged in nature. To build the variant with a tarp, you need a tarp. It's a plastic sheet that spawns in industrial areas, garages, and garden sheds. You start this construction just like you did with the Stick Shelter. Craft a kit, add 50 short sticks and four long sticks, and attach the tarp to the material slot. Now all you have to do is set it up! This variant is a little more complicated to set up. You require tanned leather. To get this, you have to kill and skin animals. You should also have fertilizers (garden lime). You can also find this wherever there are sheds, yards, or industry. Combine that with the animal skin and tan it. Depending on the quality of the fur, you get different amounts of tanned leather. To build the Leather Shelter Kit, you will need at least two pieces of tanned leather. Before you attach the leather, follow the instructions above. And that's how you built the third shelter option. Which of these shelters will you build, or have you always built?
