Blue Flare

Whenever you see a blue flare on the ground it is to indicate that a loot box will be dropped via air shortly. When this happens you need to plan around it so that you can claim the loot for yourself. There is also the option of using the loot box as bait to lure other players and then pick them off.

Cut down anything blocking your line of sight

Sometimes the procedurally generated levels will procedurally generate junk that blocks your view of the incoming hordes. Before starting the assault stage, clear your sightlines, taking down trees, boulders, and whatever else is blocking your vision. Most husks spawn far away and pistols are extremely accurate, making it easy to pick off enemies before they even get close. At the very least, it's helpful to chip away at their health and let traps finish them off if you're too busy trying to figure out how to make a staircase.

Easy nuts n' bolts

Nuts n' bolts are a common resource. You typically find them when breaking open metallic objects. There are lots of metal objects you can break for nuts n' bolts, like cars, refrigerators, arcade machines, playground equipment, small metal cans (always on the far edges of the map). All of these metal objects will normally give you nuts n' bolts. The metal cans will always drop nuts n' bolts, but there is only a high chance with the rest. Metallic objects are also limited. To get nuts n' bolts more quickly and easily, unlock Map 2: Plankerton. Get the "Repair The Shelter" quest. Uncover areas of the map to reveal yellow dots. The yellow dots are cache locations. Loot them to get 75+ nuts n' bolts per cache. The more area you uncover on the map, the more caches you can collect for easy nuts n' bolts.

Evolving heros

Evolving a hero unlocks extra passive and active skills. One star abilities can be unlocked by leveling from 1-10, but you must evolve to unlock two star and level 11-20 abilities. Before you begin to evolve heros, you must put 30 skill points into the tier 1 skill tree to unlock the two star class evolution skill node. This allows you to evolve a hero of that class only; you must earn enough skill points to unlock another two star class evolution skill node. Thus, it is recommended that you are sure you want to play a particular hero before investing your points into unlocking their evolution. You need to invest skill points in a class skill line before you can unlock its evolution. After unlocking the two star class evolution, you also must meet the following requirements:

Hero level: You need to invest 10 levels into the hero that you want to level up. Each level will progressively take more XP to level up.

Hero XP: In addition to the XP you need to level from 1 to 10, you need an additional amount of XP to evolve a hero. Retiring a hero you no longer want to use will return a large amount of invested XP to you -- so if you are short on XP, consider retiring a hero you no longer wish to use.

Evolution crafting material: Each star tier requires a different crafting material. Two star evolutions require Pure Drops Of Rain, three star evolutions require Lightning In A Bottle, etc. Evolution crafting materials can be earned by completing quests, missions, retiring a hero, and inside of certain loot llamas.

Training manual: Can be acquired by completing quests, as mission rewards, or by retiring survivors and heroes.

The hero evolution screen displays all of the requirements, as well as any stats you will gain. After selecting evolve, your hero's star level will increase and you can begin working towards the next level of evolution.

Exploring Tips

Tip 1: Exploring new places in the map can be very useful to get some collectibles and some other materials.

Tip 2: While exploring the different parts you might also come in contact with the treasures, which can be very beneficial. You might be lucky enough to have some new Schematics, XP's and some other important material required for crafting.

Tip 3: Exploring will also let you know on the map where the other survivors are and rescue them.

Tip 4: Sometimes while rescuing them a small mission might start up for killing the enemies. Complete it and then rescue the survivor.

Finishing Daily Quests

If you are from one of those who doesn't bother about the Daily Quest then, keep this in your mind that, completing Daily Quest will get you V-bucks and they are not that hard to complete. As you move ahead in the quest the mission it will change every time, but there will be a slight increase or fall in the difficulty level.

How to Craft Ammo

For Metal, Nuts and Bolts go in suburbs, it is easy to collect by breaking the cars and other metal items like a washing machine or a grill, etc. While in woods you will have to look for a cave to collect metal or tracks, machines, etc. And if you are in no mood to explore then try doing the expedition mission. You can get large amount of supply in it. So in this way you can gather items first and then craft ammos from it. There is also some second delay while crafting so keep a watch, doing this in a crowded enemy area can be lethal.

Inventory

You only have a limited inventory, you can only have five items with you and it is essential you find space for Meds. Usually, three weapons will do - Sniper rifle, assault rifle, shotgun/grenade launcher/RPG.

Loot Everywhere

As important as resources are, the best way to get ahead is to find rare items. These are found by scavenging the environment, especially when you get lucky and find a special container. Inside can be a variety of useful items, including weapons. Always be on the lookout for these.

Medical Supplies

Bandages and first-aid Kits are essential and you should always try to carry a supply of these so you are prepared to survive encounters with other players.

Shield Potions

Drink the shield potions as soon as you get them so you are able to withstand attacks from sniper rifles and other weapons. There is no point putting the potions in your inventory for later as they take up a space in your inventory.

Various Gameplay Tips

Tip 1: You will need to scavenge the map in-order to keep your bag full with Wood, Stone, and Metal. As these are going to be very handy for you in the future to build walls, floors, and stairs.

Tip 2: The max you can keep in your bag-pack is 999 for each Wood, Stone, and Metal.

Tip 3: Keep hitting the huge rocks to collect the Bricks and rocks. Also target huge trees to collect wood and other wooden items.

Tip 4: To collect metal in the suburbs break the cars and other metal things that are available, right from the grill to trash bin.

Tip 5: While near the small bushes and trees you can long press E and examine the object to collect stuff like rope, flowers, food and sometimes even Bullets.

Tip 6: While if you are playing in the forest map then hunt for metal is bit tough, here you will have to find some cave in-order to collect metal, and who knows you might even get some other collectibles also.

Various Survival Tips

Tip 1: Get ammo crates and loot as much as you can

Tip 2: Take out buildings unless people are near or some1 is attacking you

Tip 3: Do NOT go after airdrops unless you NEED it

Tip 4: When building up during a battle, make two sets of stairs next to each other so the enemy doesn't know which one ur on

Tip 5: Jump while running to go faster

Tip 6: If something, like a bush, looks suspicious, shoot it

Tip 7: Take shields over healing

Tip 8: Look around you at all times

Tip 9: If you r near storm and someone is trying to rocket launch u, go in the storm for a few seconds

Tip 10: When in combat against strong or several ppl, build a base and beneath the stairs where you will try to hit the other ppl, but a cozy campfire

Tip 11: Bushes r useless, don't take them in ur inventory

Tip 12: If u have good loot and someone's after you, when you r about to die, hide in a bush

Tip 13: When enemy is weak, push them

Tip 14: When going down somewhere high enough for you to take damage, while falling make floor half way down or before that, so that u don't take damage

Tip 15: Never go to a place where no one goes, if u do, u get bad loot (I have an example for this. My brother went to wailing woods and got a scoped AR, nothing else, he got killed.)

Tip 16: (Opinion) Jails is a great place to go, jail cells has a lot of loot.
