Getting Started On Panthera

Looking for tips for getting started on Panthera. 

 

All of the maps I've found so far (especially DayZ DB) don't include the city north of the northern airfield. Any places that you recommend that I start building a base around? Tips for looting/gearing up? 

 

If no specific tips... is there any online resources that you guys know of? Seems like the online documentation of the map is pretty scarce....

It depends on how many people you're playing with and if you're looking to store a lot of vehicles and choppers. I personally really like the mansion houses for small bases and there are lots of them on this map. A nice location is near the east airfield, by Zirovnica. Right next to a small pond. For bigger more daring bases try boh bistricta in the middle of the map or on the south east side by fishers corner. Lots of choices. Best way to make money to start out is too loot the barracks near pikia trader or fob boriana I think it is then sell them at a trader.

It's a nice map, have fun!

Depends what you are looking for I tend to look for places that take the minimum amount of defences to make "safe". 

 

  • Ramons villa  south coast is a pre-walled area with road access and a car shelter. A little down the hill is a couple of heli-pads and indy warehouse and on the other side barracks. It is, most importantly not overlooked and is relatively close to the trader. 
  • There is a castle in the desert north of Smugglers Den, a castle approximately North East of Sams boats
  • Industrial area overlooking Arnoldstein airfield which gives good sight lines across the airfield. 
  • A number of houses with heli pads in the central hilly region of the map although  most of these will probably be taken
  • A flat area good for building East of the barracks near Taff Grove
  • North of Vogel is a small town with some apartment blocks that could be reinforced and give good sight lines 360
  • On the large island is a house on a hill directly south of the airfield at Varta, on the coast. 
  • At Varta airfield is a hill that overlooks the airfield
  • The radio control tower above the cafe horta? on the island or one of the compounds below
  • The industrial unit in Mello (don't land the heli on the sloping roof it will blow up).
  • Dubrovka military  base has some flat fielded areas for custom bases with good sight lines and flat ground. Or there are some barns that could be used,

Or pretty much any major town, bearing in mind nearly all military bases are in the direct south (most clustered in the desert) or North East. The map has limited hospitals, one near Jesenice and one in Zapp. Supermarkets are clustered in the Desert towns and Arnoldstein. 

 

And the areas of least loot potential are the West Coast and mountains. 

 

Nearly the same logic applies to all maps, don't build where there are things higher than you unless you are in a built up area, chances are there will be someone like me on the hill watching and waiting.
