How to unlock the Geared achievement in DayZ - Definitive Guide

Melee weapons can be easily found in almost any building. To “equip” it, means to put it on your back. Do this by holding it in your hands, hovering over it and pressing cn_Y.

Firearms are usually found in police stations, military bases, or just regular old houses. The first firearm you will most likely stumble upon will be either a Rifle or Pistol of some kind. Like before, hold the firearm in your hands, use cn_RB to hover over it, and press cn_Y to equip it, aka putting it on your back.

Backpacks, for me, are usually found in sheds outside of houses. It can be any backpack, school backpack, hiker backpack, etc. simply pick it up, and if you don’t have one equipped, it will automatically equip it for you.

You have to have a gun, other than a handgun, and put it on your back, also, put a melee wearing like a crowbar or an axe on your back.

Installed this game just today for the game pass points.

While only minutes into the game, doing my initial scavenging, found a crowbar.

Another player approaches holding a gun and wearing a backpack.

Switches to a large axe and tries to melee me.

Killed him with my crowbar.

Picked up his gun, and by chance put the crowbar and the gun on my back, then picked up the backpack.

Achievement (1st) popped.

  • Firearms can be found in police stations, military bases (barracks and military tents) or in containers. To obtain a trophy, you need to equip your character with a weapon by placing it behind his back by pressing a button. . To simplify the search for firearms, use the map - sort by filters: remove all “Toggle Filters” (eye icon), and then turn on show only “Military” (fighter icon) - red icons.
  • Melee weapons are found everywhere. You need something that can be “equipped” on your back with a button , for example: axe, crowbar, machete, pickaxe, bat, etc. A knife or hammer cannot be “equipped” on the back, so they are not suitable.
  • A backpack can be found almost anywhere, but it is rare. Any backpack will do, including a school bag. The backpack is automatically placed on the character's back when picked up.
