Survival in Chernarus demands knowing which firearms will keep you alive and which will get you killed. From powerful assault rifles like the M4A1, AKM, and LAR to reliable long-range options such as the Mosin, SVD, and Tundra, every weapon choice matters when facing zombies and hostile survivors.
This ranking evaluates DayZ's extensive arsenal, including versatile AK variants (AK-74, AK-101, AKS-74U), close-quarters options like the Bizon and Skorpion, and sidearms ranging from the devastating Deagle to the humble IJ-70 pistol. Whether you prefer the stopping power of hunting rifles like the Blaze and BK-43, or the tactical advantage of suppressed weapons like the VSS and SVAL, understanding each firearm's strengths and weaknesses is crucial for dominating the post-apocalyptic landscape.
