MIST Survival
By BREEZ
Here are a few quick tips I use. Please add your survival tip in the comments. Follow the Format if possible so others can find your idea quickly.

example(s):

Title: My First CROWBAR (Message: You can find a crowbar or craft one.)
Title: GEARS for All: (Message: Destroying a generator will get you one gear. I found more at the GAS Station and a Bandit Camp near the FARM.)

Thank you all and stay alive!

FIRST SHELTER
Chosing your shelter or base will provide the safety you seek without doing much to keep it healthy.

*Pre-made Base: (Great Option) A pre-made base will allow you to take in those hostages you saved at the Bandit Camps. It's EA and who knows what they might be able to do later!?

*Crafted Base: (Best Option) Small, cozy and you can place it nearly anywhere. How about near a town with resources? You also get the luxory of hostages here too!

*Other decent base ideas: ( Good Option) Take over a shop with workbenches or other crafting tools, take over the Farm House Barns

FOOD & WATER
Currently, the biggest challenge is Hunger and Thirst. The decay of health is affected by not having much food and drink. Here is how you can do better:

*PLASTIC BOTTLES: Refill at any water source (Lake, Pond, River, etc...)

*DIY WATER PURIFIER: Craft next to a Water Barrel (100L Water Storage)

*CRAFT all food prep items: Drying Rack, Grill, etc...

***HUNT bears, LOOT food, and KILL MIST RUNNERS.***
BASE PROTECTION
You will encounter the MIST at any moment in a day. Think quick and increase your survival.

*SAVE YOUR GAME - After reaching a destination, clearing a house, or finding something useful.

*CHICKEN FENCE - This is the single-most useful crafted item in the game for me. Cheap to craft and because the fence template snaps on to the corner, you can get quite creative in less time.

1. Build a CHICKEN FENCE around your base.
2. Create WALKWAYS in order to get from point A to B when the MIST comes.
3. Place one Fence on all boarded windows (Inside or Outside will work)

*SAVE YOUR GAME

MINING

Stones can have more than one ore type. Took me a minute to get iron.

SLEEPING BAG
It's a good idea to take a found or self crafted sleeping bag with you. If you out for exploring over night and need to sleep in an empty house or hut, the bag increase your fatigue much better as sleeping on the ground.

MIST EVENTS: These usually occur between 0900 and 1600. They do not occur every day. You can stay safe during mist events by climbing onto a structure above ground level, staying on the second floor of a house, or sitting in a car with the engine off until the fog clears.

GENERAL TIP: Use manual saves. Don't rely on autosave. If you die, reload your save. Save often!
