Barn

The **Barn** is a medium-sized Building in surviv.io with one floor that was added in March 2nd, 2018. It is similar to the House in terms of flooring and furniture.

## Description

Barns each contain a restroom with a toilet, two rooms, windows, a front and back door, a saferoom which contains a small amount of loot, a table, two bushes, an explosive oven and five drawers which can be broken for loot. However, be aware that barns can also be subject to conflict, and walls inside the barns can be broken with fists, frag grenades or guns. Players can hide under the table, the bush, or inside the saferoom. The walls of the saferoom allow bullets to bounce, therefore, making it easy for players to shoot those hiding in the saferoom.

## Alternate Barn

The Alternate version was added in the “*Clubbed to death*” update. 1 Alternate Barn is spawned every game.

This Barn does not have a saferoom; instead, it is replaced by an underground entrance. The basement contains two rooms: the first one contains a Sledgehammer, a variant of the Stone Hammer, and a Bookshelf (Guaranteed to not have Plant) nearby; the second room is only accessible by breaking the wall with the Sledgehammer. Inside there is a Golden Eye Chest that contains Dual G18C, P30L, 1 item from Tier Chest 04, 4 Smoke Grenades and the Neo Noir Skin. Underneath the Chest there is an Eye symbol in gold.

In the Desert Map, the Golden Eye Chest drops 330 9mm Ammo for the P30L and a Regular Pack instead of the Dual G18C. The 9mm is prized for the rarity during the event.

Extremely rarely, there will be a 9mm round placed near the bookshelf instead of the Sledgehammer. This, however, may be a reference to the one in Saloon.

### Recording

There formerly was a recording in the final room's corner that said:

> ***“My father warned them, and still he paid the ultimate price. But one Nevelskoy still draws breath on the Island. By the grace of the Eye, we will finally have vengeance.”***

## Strategies

* Punch the oven until it is smoking and place some sort of loot next to it to lure potential victims. Make sure to keep yourself hidden. Then shoot the oven and explode the enemy.
* The saferoom is a very good place to catch someone off guard, since the ceiling is opaque. If the Barn isn't looted yet but you have a shotgun, try camping inside the saferoom and when someone enters the saferoom, shoot them as they walk in.
	+ The underground entrance in the Alternate Barn is also an excellent spot to ambush players, as everyone wants the valuable loot and there is Dual G18C inside for quick kills.
* Be aware that the wall lining against the saferoom and the oven is destructible, meaning that you cannot ricochet bullets off of it.
* If you destroy the small wall to the direct right of the saferoom entrance, you can throw a grenade inside the saferoom if it is aimed directly through the tiny crack. This is a good way to kill someone if you know they are inside. MIRV Grenades are recommended for this tactic.
* If you are spawned near or right next to a Barn, it is worth it to go inside and check if it is the Alternate Barn or not.
* It is smart to go for the toilet first if you're looking for adrenaline. This can be said for all buildings with toilets.

## Trivia

* 2 Barns spawn in Solo and Duos mode, and 4 spawn in Squads.
* This basement may be a reference to the scene in John Wick where John Wick goes to the basement of his Home and smashes the floor to reveal a chest with a P30L and 2 other pistols (as presented by Dual G18C in the game).
* There is a glitch where if you stand next to the wall just outside the storeroom, and someone opens the door from the inside, you can go through the wall.
