Click By The Problem You Need To Solve Now
This is not another section list. It separates the five common reader intents: first visit, systems, map blockers, cleanup, and video support.
When the blocker is damage, resources, or loadout choices, start from systems and build routing instead of map pages.
If the problem is route order, locations, regions, or side quest flow, skip straight to the map and quest layer.
When you are cleaning up before or after the finale, use the completion hub instead of backtracking through random posts.
When timing, movement, or arena structure matters, start with video support and then return to written pages for exact checks.

Site Positioning
The DayZ site is part of the 500-site expansion plan. It starts by covering four search-heavy needs: resource gathering, base building, tech tree, co-op survival.
This site begins as a stable index. Future work should split it into specific quests, gear pages, map routes, system explainers, update notes, and video-led guides as demand appears.
