Effective chance calculations are based off of default loot settings and median zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits.

Containers

livingroom shelves 10.78%

This VHS will only spawn once and only in living room shelves, making it incredibly rare.

Trivia

  • This tape seems to be one of a television broadcast about a meteor shower over Varginha, Brazil. That adds some evidence to the Knox Event being caused by meteors.
