Where to find Camouflage Helmet in DayZ
Camouflage Helmet is the in-game name; server files such as types.xml call it BallisticHelmet_Woodland.
On Chernarus, the economy keeps about 3 on the map and spawns more when none are left, after waiting 30 min. Each one lasts 4 h when nobody touches it. It spawns in Military places.
On Livonia, the economy keeps about 4 on the map and spawns more when fewer than 2 are left, after waiting 30 min. Each one lasts 4 h when nobody touches it. It spawns in Military places.
On Sakhal, the economy keeps about 6 on the map and spawns more when fewer than 4 are left, after waiting 30 min. Each one lasts 4 h when nobody touches it. It spawns in Military places, in Tier2 and Tier3.
On Nasdara, BallisticHelmet_Woodland does not spawn as random loot (nominal 0).
Where to look
- Military bases, camps and checkpoints (Military)
Loot tiers: Sakhal Tier2, Tier3. Tier1 is near the coast and Tier4 deep inland, so a higher tier means a longer trip.
