Drinks such as sodas will contribute to the count, but boxes of tea and coffee tins will not unless they are prepared into Cup of herbal tea or Cup of coffee. One day's worth of food translates to roughly 3000 calories. The list does not seem to care whether meat is ruined or not so long as it is not picked up and placed back down. If the player is struggling to find resources, a trip to the Summit of Timberwolf Mountain will provide everything necessary to complete the challenge. The journal contains a live count items removed from the gas station will be subtracted from the list progress. Items in the survivor's inventory are not counted.

Items can be dropped onto the floor of the gas station or put inside containers in the gas station to be counted. This is similar to the Saffir-Simpson wind scale used to measure the strength of hurricanes.Īll of the following Items are required to complete the challenge: There is a new section called "Almanac" which will tell the player the likelihood of a blizzard, as well as its intensity, on a scale from 1 to 5. Once all the items on the list are inside the gas station, the challenge ends. Note that the player does not have to survive the prophesied blizzard nor the entire allotted 30 days. Extra caution is required when entering and leaving the garage or when searching the area for supplies. Although predator spawns may be less common in the beginning, the player's lack of weapons (unless a revolver and ammunition spawned in the gas station) and protective clothing mean the relatively high density of wolves (and possibly a bear) near Quonset Garage can be deadly. Initially however, conditions may still be challenging. There are cardboard and wooden boxes that can be broken down, a toilet that contains a small amount of potable water, two work benches, a fire barrel, and a bed along with the normal container-type objects (e.g., metal shelves, filing cabinets, lockers).Īs the challenge progresses, the weather gets harsher and hostile animals spawn in greater numbers. The survivor's inventory has a bedroll, low grade clothing, and some other miscellaneous items.Ī revolver, revolver ammunition, and an energy drink can spawn in the gas station.


The survivor spawns inside the Quonset Gas Station with 2000 calories, fully rested, fully warm, and with no thirst. The objective of the challenge is to locate and retrieve all of the items listed in the journal during the allotted 30 days.
