Getting Started


Starting out fresh in any game or mod can be a daunting thing. Hopefully this section, and the video in it can help with getting you comfortable in Epoch, and on your way to experiencing all it has to offer. Remember this wiki is for Arma 3 Epoch only. And the mods that are officially supported in Epoch. Current external server modifications supported by Epoch is Ryan's Zombies and Demons [1].

After loading into a server, you will be given the choice between playing a male or female character if you are new to that server. Once you've picked your gender, move to one of the drain covers around the room and selecting your action key and you will spawn you into the map. You will be spawned into a trader zone for that map. You will spawn into a traders center in a specific area of the map, each drain cover will spawn you into a different area so its worth trying them all to find out where they all lead to. Depending on the map you choose, you may have one or multiple drain covers. You will spawn in a Protected Traders Zone in Epoch unless you are playing on a modded server.

Base Building & Crafting

Epoch Energy System

Before a player can start building, they must first gain some energy. This can be done in three ways:

  • Vehicles - While in any vehicle with the engine running, the player will gain approximately 5 energy every 10 seconds;
  • Solar/Wind Power - If the player is within 75 meters of a solar farm tower or wind turbine they will gain approximately 5 energy every 10 seconds;
  • Energy Packs - By double clicking an energy pack in your inventory, there is an option to "use". This will give the player energy instantly, but will use up the energy pack (small energy pack = 100 energy. large energy pack = 1000 energy).


Also note;

  • Using night vision goggles, or the night vision function on range finders, will also require energy.
  • Energy gains do not stack while in a vehicle within range of towers/turbines or multiple towers/turbines

Note:- Base building objects get deleted after 7 days. Moving the object or Painting walls extends this for 7 more days. For more info see Maintaining Bases.

Upgrading Pieces

Some building pieces can be upgraded with the use of additional materials:


Base Maintenance

If they are not maintained, base pieces will be removed after 7 days of being placed.
To avoid this, you can do one of the following:


The best way is clearly through the frequency jammer, as painting will only work on upgraded walls, and moving every piece of a base and getting them back to how they were would be very time consuming on all except the most basic bases.

Crafting Overview


There are many items that can be crafted in Epoch, but they are always started in the same way: by double clicking the item in your inventory.
This is an overview of how to craft items, which can be applied to all crafting in the list of Items and Recipes;

Below are the other ways you can interact with vehicles:

Here is a list of all the vehicles available with all their stats for comparison.
Vehicles can naturally spawn around the map, or as a trade with traders if they have already been sold to them by others players.
