All Loot Locations: Dying Light Guide

Loot in Dying Light represent some of the most valuable resource gathering opportunities scattered throughout Harran’s infected streets. These marked locations contain essential supplies that can mean the difference between survival and becoming zombie food in this harsh post-apocalyptic world.

The Dying Light Interactive Map filters these loot sources by type, helping you plan efficient scavenging routes while avoiding unnecessary exposure to the infected hordes. Each marker reveals a specific type of container with predictable rewards, allowing you to prioritize based on your current needs.

What Loot Are Used For

Loot provide the fundamental resources needed to craft weapons, medical supplies, and survival equipment throughout your journey in Harran.

• Supply crafting materials like metal parts, electronics, and chemicals for weapon modifications
• Contain medical supplies including gauze, alcohol, and antiseptic for healing items
• Offer ammunition, throwing weapons, and consumables for immediate use
• Provide valuable items that can be sold to traders for better equipment
• Stock essential survival tools like lockpicks and firecrackers

Loot Types

The map tracks three distinct types of loot containers, each offering different reward categories and requiring varying levels of effort to access.

Loot Crate

Standard wooden crates scattered throughout buildings and safe zones that contain basic crafting materials and consumables. These represent the most common loot source and can be opened without special requirements. They typically yield metal parts, gauze, batteries, and other fundamental crafting components.

Police Van

Abandoned police vehicles that often contain ammunition, weapons, and law enforcement equipment. These vans usually require lockpicking skills to access but reward players with firearms, police-grade equipment, and sometimes rare crafting blueprints. They’re frequently found near police stations and roadblocks.

Ambulance

Medical emergency vehicles containing high-value medical supplies and crafting materials for healing items. Ambulances provide consistent sources of alcohol, antiseptic, and gauze needed for medkit creation. These are particularly valuable early in the game when medical supplies are scarce.

How to Use the Map Efficiently

Smart loot routing minimizes exposure time while maximizing resource collection, especially important during dangerous nighttime excursions.

• Plan routes that connect multiple loot types in safe zones before venturing into dangerous areas
• Prioritize ambulances and police vans during daylight hours when zombie activity is lower
• Use rooftop paths and ziplines to move between elevated loot crate locations safely
• Mark nearby safe houses on your route to dump inventory and rest when overloaded
• Focus on specific loot types based on current crafting needs rather than collecting everything
• Coordinate loot runs with story missions that take you through the same areas

• Focus on ambulances early game when medical supplies are most critical
