Server Selection Screen in DayZ SA (DayZ Standalone Version)

Server Hopping is the act of switching from Server to Server to get better loot

For example, you go to the ATC Tower at the Krasnostav Airstrip, which is considered a high loot area with military-grade gear

Once there, you keep "hopping" from one server to another and getting the loot for all the ATC Towers in all the servers until you are fully geared.

Controversy[edit]

Server Hopping is one of the more common forms of exploiting. Some people do not consider this to be cheating if done in moderation, since currently loot does not respawn until a server restarts.
