[sharp obsidian]

pogger

[finite tide]

[sharp obsidian]

[finite tide]

[subtle valve]

Lol, no. It will sit in my gingy dedicated to 314, 1 more to have 4x 10/10 firs 😛

[sharp obsidian]

this why im boutta start bringing grizzly with me

[smoky olive]

didnt know a single ps12 would kill me through my armor (their bullets get to do more damage)

[fleet loom]

armor is skill based sorry

[smoky olive]

some fuckshit bro just for that im gonna spin back and clap him 20 more times

face my mutant bro!

[smoky olive]

skill based armor vs enemy based bullets

[hearty vapor]

does mp7 work on labyrinth?

never tried it

[smoky olive]

should

[sharp obsidian]

works, but tagillas armor gonna be 0ed

i forgot if i went with fmj or ap

[hearty vapor]

im running jsp sx

💀

[sharp obsidian]

but thats all my friend said "all of tagilla armor is 0ed"

[hearty vapor]

leg meta was my idea

[sharp obsidian]

better bring lots of bullets 😭 😭

oh, leg could work maybe

[fleet loom]

at that point just use an rpd and t-whatever the fuck

[hearty vapor]

i dont even got flea yet

[thorn hedge]

i feel like some scope makes darkness even darker , is this just me ?

[fleet loom]

some scopes make me blind in the dark thats about it

but its becuz theyre bright as shit

[smoky olive]

alright time to go to bed

instant bt to the face

dont let nikita get in my line of sight bro cuz i swear

[sharp obsidian]

[finite tide]

never end on a loss

[sharp obsidian]

90% of gamblers quit before winning big!

[smoky olive]

nah this time i gotta bro why the FUCK am i even wearing a slick if its just deco

shit suck anyways bro terrible armor

[sharp obsidian]

why are you even wearing a slick. you just asking to be shot

be like me, wear a gen4 full with a rys at all time. cant be shot if theres no unprotected spaces

[young frost]

join rys t gang. i havent died to a headshot in a while

[smoky olive]

most times im out here mauling people with the mxlr but the one time i use somethin meta i die

[stiff pike]

Can PVE have more then 1 person go into terminal now?

[sharp obsidian]

rys t, shadow mask, gen4/osprey, raid backpack with lcbrs in it.

[wicked crow]

okay this is stupid

[sharp obsidian]

yes

[wicked crow]

Big pipe just shooting me through a wall full blast

[young frost]

nah fuck the death shadow. john bs n smoke mask

[wicked crow]

f off with that bullshit

[smoky olive]

fuck it bro im gonna have to aurafarm with no helmet

[wicked crow]

if you can see me cool but full auto through a wall is bs

[stiff pike]

Sus name

[smoky olive]

its ok brother me too

[sharp obsidian]

they keep tracking even if you cut line of sight. just let the wall shooting like killa, and wait for them to rush

[wicked crow]

I killed the other two guys

[sharp obsidian]

but dont stand behind wallbangable stuff

[wicked crow]

I was trapped

I couldn't get out cause there was a stupid truck behind me and if i back up he gets line of sight

but god forbid a full mag of BT do anything to him

[sharp obsidian]

as one cool man once said, im not locked here with you, youre locked in here with me. hunt em

[wicked crow]

i was reloading

[sharp obsidian]

they got lvl 5 plates, bt will barely tickles

[subtle valve]

Ok.. I just extracted from LH with the last major evidence, Batya done

[thorn hedge]

Cultists can only spawn between old gas and ruaf gate on customs?

[wicked crow]

no

[subtle valve]

Now it is Terminal time

[wicked crow]

fucking do more damage to t6 tagilla then them apparently

[finite tide]

pretty sure

[sharp obsidian]

railroad behind panda/ref building, and outside hole in the wall sometimes

[smoky olive]

dvl tagilla vest no helmet we are GONNA win

[wicked crow]

also

why the fuck was big pipe hiding

[sharp obsidian]

you cnat just say "no" everytime bro.

[wicked crow]

i got pushed by knight and bird eye but big pipe just sat there

[sharp obsidian]

bt got 37 pen power. it BARELY pens lvl 4.

[wicked crow]

i can when BT can kill tagilla but not big pipe with worse armor

[sharp obsidian]

tagilla can easily be dropped because his armor dont cover stomach nor neck

like the hitbox is ridiculously small.

[sharp obsidian]

and you said the old friend request was bugged.

im sorry but i will say it this time: No. just no.

aim heads next up

[wicked crow]

ya i'll do that when he's locked onto my head through a wall and never stops firing

[sharp obsidian]

just dont stand behind wood/cardboard or easily penetrable materials.

[smoky olive]

i bet he saw a pixel of you

[wicked crow]

it was a metal door

[sharp obsidian]

concealment vs cover is a real thing

[wicked crow]

not wood

a big ass metal door

[sharp obsidian]

metal door can be penetrated afaik.

[finite tide]

jesus christ

can killa fuck off

[sharp obsidian]

want my help? i gotta run interchange

[smoky olive]

what ammo was it and like a hermetic door or just a normal metal door

[wicked crow]

fuck if i know since im stuck on an infinite loading screen

[sharp obsidian]

most likely the metal door like dorms/crackhouse

[finite tide]

im taking a break thank you tho

[sharp obsidian]

so you dont recall where you died

[smoky olive]

yeahhh thats gonna pen hard esp big pipe

[hazy gorge]

Add killa to everymap

[wicked crow]

thats not what they asked

[sharp obsidian]

"and like a hermetic door or just normal metal door" quite was yes.

[wicked crow]

it was the big building between railroad and fortress

[wicked crow]

I was answering the ammo question stop ridiculous

[sharp obsidian]

so panda, he was on 3rd floor.

or 1st floor. def doors they can shoot through

[wicked crow]

1st floor

still fucking bullshit

[sharp obsidian]

ive shot cultists through those doors

[prime trellis]

time to go back to interchange.. god i hate test drive

[wicked crow]

He hides like a pussy until birdeye dies despite being the one whose supposed to rush in

[sharp obsidian]

take the right suppressors this time.

[thorn hedge]

i just met the goons with a brand new gun - guess who forgot to put it to full auto

[sharp obsidian]

happens to me so often lmao. where they at rn? customs still?

[thorn hedge]

Customs yes

im looking for cultist

[sharp obsidian]

customs cultist hunting or interchange for lightkeeper....hm decisions

oh right, you need that 314 kek

[thorn hedge]

My ash-12 saved my ass against the goons tho even tho i had all my limbs thorn of exept from head and thorax

[willow tinsel]

yea, only 1 airdrop can occur every 17 minutes

[smoky olive]

fighting guards will never not be funny

an ordinary human taking 20 bullets to the body

[willow tinsel]

regardless of it being a New Year flare or red flare

[hearty vapor]

i wish they would make pve more difficult

AI pmcs give themselfs away instantly

[smoky olive]

SCAV OVER THERE!

[hearty vapor]

most of the time i find pmcs killed by scavs

[wicked crow]

you want them to be silent or something?

[sharp obsidian]

idk they tend to just shoot me outta nowehre at times

[willow tinsel]

this one time i aactually saw Killa get killed by PMC's, i was impressed

[hearty vapor]

i mean id rather honestly have a challenge

[sharp obsidian]

anybody know where i gotta pop that yellow flare for lightkeeper? like between oli and idea at the front door?

[young frost]

ive noticed them pulling some interesting moves recently. earlier today i caught one in the rafters above gate 3

[wicked crow]

i don't think the point of PVE is for the pmc's to be hard like if you want harder fights just go pvp at that point

or fight bosses

since they're basically almost gauranteed spawns

[willow tinsel]

No but make them behave like SAIN

[smoky olive]

i dont think every pmc needs the crappiest ammo ever bro

[wicked crow]

?

[willow tinsel]

that shit is peak AI behavior

[wicked crow]

most pmc's i fight have BT or 55a1

sometimes PS

[sharp obsidian]

bt still shit

sp6 and 55a1 only the good ammo they got on or snb

[subtle valve]

Better not mention such stuff here 🙂

[wicked crow]

BT is great ammo

[split hull]

Some have 7.62 bp too, which can be a nice find

[smoky olive]

do i even bother trying to fight gluhar when hes underground seems like a foolish idea

[split hull]

A lot of them run fmj-type stuff though

[wicked crow]

BT will break a face mask pretty quick even if it's killa/tagilla

[subtle valve]

Yes! Only 20 rounds to kill Killa straight to his faceshield xD

[young frost]

idk every now n then i find one thats rly juiced with like m80a1 or 545bs but 95% of the time its ps or 855

[wicked crow]

ehh not even

[young frost]

yea 762bt lol

[sharp obsidian]

the delusion is great

[willow tinsel]

would you rather have them drop PS

[sharp obsidian]

@thorn hedge so huh....i may or may not have done the very same thing as you

[thorn hedge]

😂 how did it go?

[sharp obsidian]

ill send the clip

words cant really explain how well it went

[dusk beacon]

After complete "Another Shipping Delay" the "Ask for Directions" doesnt pop-up from BTR, am I bugged or is it require anything beside showing from wiki?

[smoky olive]

punisher pt 2 soooo hard to do bro all the scavs have those weird masks

[stiff pike]

If you duo terminal with savior endings, do both people need to pick up the evidence? Will there be two?

[rancid tundra]

Damn

Seems like only one will escape

[prime trellis]

huh, that was 7 pmc kills? huh i swore 4 of those were scavs

oh.. it was grenades.. fuck

[broken fable]

is anyone else getting really annoyed with the constant snow screen on factory

[shut bough]

real

also, i cant wait for the christmas event stuff to be over in a couple of days, kinda getting a little sick of santa hiding in the darkness behind a group of fucking scavs when i do night raids and then his dumbass gets hit because his standing in the line of fire

hes tanked my scav rep a couple of times because of that

also dumb how killing him results in you losing scav rep even if you are on a pmc

[sharp obsidian]

what christmas event stuff? aside from santa, the rest is barely affecting anything

[shut bough]

santa and ornaments

[sharp obsidian]

tree module is free craft and exp, plus free gear

or money

[shut bough]

I know that, I just also want the fuckin ornaments to get out of the valuable item spawns lol

Wanna find my bitcoins and other goodies instead of my 20 thousanth purple ornament :p

[sharp obsidian]

idk man, i love making me some asval mod4 🤑

[finite tide]

brother ornaments give you better shit than rare loot

[reef knoll]

how do I get secured prem'ter done

[subtle valve]

If only the gun was viable at 100m+ range xD

[finite tide]

why would you want that gone

[shut bough]

event fatigue

[subtle valve]

Tree is gone tomorrow or in 2 days?

[shut bough]

Im kind of too focused trying to do normal quests instead of hunting the tree every map lol

[subtle valve]

This

[reef knoll]

how do I get secured primeter done boys Im stuck on that quest

[shut bough]

You gotta kill PMC ai when they are IN the office building of factory

You can be outside it or inside it, doesnt matter

but they HAVE to be in it

[reef knoll]

ık but how

I cant get them to go in there

is there like a chese method

[shut bough]

just blitz that office every time, tbh

[subtle valve]

They can spawn there, the basement part below the office also counts

[shut bough]

factory either is super fucking empty or hells gates open when tagilla summons his scav army lol

[subtle valve]

Just bait them there, wait near the safe and wait for them to push

[keen juniper]

They sometimes spawn other side of the map and just don't move

[shut bough]

I've noticed that when I do the double press mumble (ie yelling) sometimes they'll react to it

[subtle valve]

I don't get at all why people have a problem with this quest, almost every raid PMCs go there, just don't rush them if they are outside

[shut bough]

In my experience they love to get themselves killed by scavs and then sit still forever lol

[subtle valve]

Then call it RNG and go next raid. They are really really often in the office area base floor

[keen juniper]

It took me 5 hours to do it, I know it's RNG

[shut bough]

Like, itll get done eventually, but damn its it one of those tedious ones

[subtle valve]

Run around killing scavs and running from PMCs. Then hide outisde, just vault through the window near safe and wait there

[shut bough]

True, true

[subtle valve]

I did that in 3 raids, lol. Less than an hour

[shut bough]

I probably would do some shit like that if I really got down to the meat and potatoes of it, but I've been mainly focused doin other quests with a buddy of mine :p

[subtle valve]

It is Capturing Outposts that we should whine about. This one in PvE is a nightmare of waiting if PMCs will go there

[shut bough]

Honestly real

I havent done that one before but I just looked it up and damn yeah thats a lot of waiting

At least the woods "scav base" isnt fucking the scav bunker area

now THAT would be hell

[keen juniper]

Any of the kill PMCs in area quests are just annoying on PVE

I've got dorms kills to do still I've maybe seen them there once

[shut bough]

off topic, but what the fuck are they putting in russian pineapple juice if you can make it with a can of stew, 2 packs of crackers and a fucking chocolate bar??

[amber rune]

whats the best way to get a fire steel in raid?

[shut bough]

for now, either the christmas tree, or some place like the cultist bunker on woods

ive found it a bunch there

cult bunker is always a good shout for some halfway decent goodies sometimes

[prime trellis]

go chasing gunfire
pmcs dead to scavs multiple times
lmao

[shut bough]

no wonder Terragroup hired black division

[prime trellis]

black division is just 3 scavs in a trench coat

[shut bough]

REAL

[sharp obsidian]

bro what is my luck

[shut bough]

?

[sharp obsidian]

"ok no killa after a nade in oli. easy raid" go in techlight and ultra to loot. i hear metal so im like "sweet scav for 15 kill for lightkeeper" lo and behold. killa in escalator

[shut bough]

yeah sometimes for some dumbass reason he just turns into a fucking cultist and becomes dead silent

[sharp obsidian]

he wasnt silent. i heard him. but no nade in oli attracted him

[prime trellis]

killa do be like that yes

they made his voice a lot quieter to counter people spamming flash grenades

which is ass backwards but whatever

[shut bough]

Yeah, contrary to his fuckin design, sometimes he just decides to not push for some jank ass reason

[sharp obsidian]

oh well, easy kill with sp6

time to go for that last camp and go awy

[bronze saddle]

Stupid quests like KILL 20 HOMIES INSIDE THE MALL is pure luck.. ive clapped Killa's cheeks more times than ive encountered PMCs inside the mall

[shut bough]

yeah they love to die at power or at the corner near emercom

[bronze saddle]

I intentionally take hits avoiding them in hopes theyd go inside, but..... nah they aint getting in, just around

[shut bough]

yea :/

[sharp obsidian]

2 small defibs out of this raid, not bad, not terrible

[bronze saddle]

Got most of mine in woods and factory

[sharp obsidian]

500k key, love to see it in a airdrop

[shut bough]

That implies the existence of large defibs 🤔

[sharp obsidian]

ledx

my large defib

[shut bough]

tru

[bronze saddle]

Anyway im down to AKM, AK74/100, AR15/18, FAL/SA58, M10 SAKA, MP7, AK50, M3 and MUTANT. Thats 9 remaining guns until they add more

[sharp obsidian]

down for?

[bronze saddle]

Master 3. 165 guns in total if im not mistaken 9 left

[shut bough]

Is there mastery for the RPG?

that would be funny

[sharp obsidian]

didnt wipe?

[quasi oar]

anyone got a confirmed sighting of the goons ? been following the trackers for 4 days and haven't had a single spawn as of yet

[sharp obsidian]

last seen like customs a few hours ago

dont know if they moved

[shut bough]

i saw and killed em customs, but that was a few hours ago, yea

[quasi oar]

trackers seem to have seen them in customs last but i'm yet to get a spawn..

[sharp obsidian]

well where do you check

cuz they will either be near panda/fortress or hole in the wall/near boiler room

[young frost]

u dont find goons. they find u

[quasi oar]

crossing through both those points

[bronze saddle]

I sure did wipe

[sharp obsidian]

how quick is it to do mastery lvl 3 on these guns then, cuz id expect to take a while

[bronze saddle]

Im just used to mastering guns... its my uuuuh 8th time mastering every gun in the game

[turbid owl]

do y'all just sell all your extra docs cases?

[sharp obsidian]

oh wait, its not long at all to master 3

i got so many done already

[bronze saddle]

How many raids did you do so far? Im no more than 400 and even then ive said too many

[sharp obsidian]

im at 361

361, lvl 51, got kappa, just started working back on the story/lightkeeper

[bronze saddle]

Noice.. im lvl45, but uuuuh nope no Kappa

[sharp obsidian]

i do all my raids with a purpose

but enough tarkov for today

[bronze saddle]

Wait... did you or did you not do the kill Shturman 20 times?

[sharp obsidian]

got him like 5 times for the quest, didnt proactively go for it

[bronze saddle]

That task alone costed me like 40+ raids, cause blud wouldnt spawn or he got my ass... blud dropped my average from 100% to 97%

[sharp obsidian]

your average is that high?

jeez, im worse than i thought

[bronze saddle]

Well yeah... 400 raids only died like uuuh 6-9 times?? I need to check

And KDR like 350+

And if i wasnt busy writing music, id be at 500 raids. I wrote a song, shitting on modern games, DEI, wokeness etc etc

[sharp obsidian]

yeah im at 88% sr and 86kd or some like that

[thorn token]

sniper weapon modding question, what sights can i use a rangefinder with on the gun itself, instead of using the handheld one

i've seen the clips and videos where people have the rangefinder above their scope

[young frost]

its about the mount

so any mount with a pic rail on top

[thorn token]

dope

[rugged harness]

any tipps for Return the Favor?

[peak coral]

anyone use tarkovquestie?

[mystic marsh]

What is that

[lethal sinew]

seems like a app that shows live time where you are exactly when u in a raid like streets etc

some scuffed up app that I would not install and just better learn the maps than use something like that but idk

[lethal sinew]

I would not download it imo

[crystal umbra]

ok but seriously, can Parmesan fuck off on Local?

After running Customs for my Test Drive 6, he would always spawn and try to jump me at crackhouse.

Now I went to Woods to get some more bolt action tasks done and ofc he immediately starts gunning straight for me at the old sawmill.

he's more annoying than anything, but getting him spawn and insta run to wherever you are for like... the 6th time in a row is a bit ridiculous

[lethal sinew]

naah he is meant to be annoying so enjoy

[crystal umbra]

rip

He did bring me a lab access card, so there's that at least.

[lethal sinew]

sadly I can't relate as well I see once in 50 raids like don't even remember when I saw partisan last time lmao

[crystal umbra]

you running local or bsg server raids?

[lethal sinew]

local

[crystal umbra]

hmm, I see. Boss spawns are supposed to be higher on local iirc? Or at least they are in my case

[lethal sinew]

[crystal umbra]

BSG RNG I guess

[lethal sinew]

yup

[thorn hedge]

Do i sell or keep the kiba outer key ?

[high sandal]

play the game and find out yourself

[thorn hedge]

was that my question?

[finite tide]

Check if you need it for a quest if not sell it

[snow stag]

Keep it you will get inner Door key as well from a quest, and then you can open the doors if you want

[thorn hedge]

Thanks ! i just saw it was 3m so i wanted to be sure

[thorn token]

keep, outer is the more expensive of the two

kiba isn't a bad place to go for guns, ammo, and plates when the loot isnt nerfed to shit

[lethal sinew]

[snow stag]

The only downside of kiba in PVE is, that you will need to switch the power lever, but when you spawn at that side its a good money maker usualy

[thorn hedge]

Yea, i just hope that the end of this event increases the loose loot chances once again

[finite tide]

No you don’t need power rn

[thorn token]

on pve it's also a good hiding spot if you need a break from scavs and killa, you can shoot out the windows and they cant see inside the windows to shoot back

[lethal sinew]

atm yeah cus the game is so guud xd

[snow stag]

Is the bug still there?

[finite tide]

Yeah

[lethal sinew]

yup

[finite tide]

Surprised it isn’t fixed

[snow stag]

Ooh medical door too on upper floor tech store

[lethal sinew]

6y6ess

yup*

[thorn token]

i did decon service this way casually, just camped in there while doing that and test drive part 2

[thorn hedge]

What was the name of the key for the cash registres in the bank across from kaban?

[finite tide]

If you find nexus pharmacy key and interchange medical storage room key keep them

[finite tide]

Tarbank cash register key or something like that

[thorn hedge]

Gracias!

[finite tide]

It’ll have tarbank in the name

[lethal sinew]

thats for streets

[finite tide]

@lethal sinew

[lethal sinew]

braindamge

dw

still learning to read hope understand

[thorn hedge]

Is the aspect office entrance a good "entrance" for taking down kaban? or is the nade and run into his fort better?

i have 30 aspect keys , so just curious

[finite tide]

Aspect is better

[thorn hedge]

Thanks

[snow stag]

Depends tbh

[lethal sinew]

aspect side easier imo

you come from the tarbank side and if not able to kill the one on turret it is more difficult cus u need to quick peek and one tap the one on turret

[thorn token]

or just throw more nades to get him off turret again

[thorn hedge]

Yea, thats where i throw the nade run to the left into the container

[lethal sinew]

true

[thorn token]

you can toss a grenade before he starts shooting again typically

or just throw another as youre running in

[lethal sinew]

[worn quartz]

hi guys, im new to PVE, may I ask where can I find AI USEC PMC? As the AI PMC all I killed is only BEAR

[thorn token]

my solution to lexos is nades

if you think you have enough nades, you should bring 2 more

[lethal sinew]

1 is enough

[thorn hedge]

i usually just bring 15-20 nades and start tossing just to hear screams when they don appear anymore

[snow stag]

whuuut

[thorn token]

random chance to be either usec or bear unfortunately

[thorn token]

you know, thats one way. i bring like 6-8 and spam them when im in a pickle

[thorn hedge]

Yea - at one point i was so sick and tierd of getting head eyed by some guard - so i just keep them constantly running from nades 😂

[thorn token]

which is easy for me to be in there

[snow stag]

Are ya the new mortar unit? 😄

[lethal sinew]

i actually wonder can i fast enough kill the one on turret

[thorn hedge]

damn, thats a good idea! what flare is that agaain? :D

[lethal sinew]

fuck nades

[snow stag]

Blue?

[lethal sinew]

blue yuh

[thorn token]

you can

[thorn hedge]

i will now bring 10-20 blue flares

[thorn token]

jiggle peek him from the container

[thorn hedge]

[lethal sinew]

having 0 nades just getting in

[snow stag]

HAHAHAHA never tried it in streets but interchange in the middle is hella fun

[thorn token]

oh no you'll get smoked

[lethal sinew]

i will go and see

[worn quartz]

which way can farm it faster

[thorn token]

no way to farm faster

[lethal sinew]

factory if no specific map where need to kil lthem

[snow stag]

Customs, lighthouse or factory when not excluded from the quest

[lethal sinew]

cus its the smallest map

[thorn token]

oh just pmc farming

i'd go customs and not factory

factory on pve is so weird with pmc spawns

[lethal sinew]

[thorn hedge]

i wonder if im safe inside the container if i use a blue flare

[lethal sinew]

prob

[snow stag]

idk tbh, but report back if you find it out

[lavish socket]

I bet tagilla spawns 100% on local hosted. Dunno if it’ll be different if on big servers

[lethal sinew]

spawn rate same local or bsg

[thorn token]

you can't change server use on factory i've noticed

it's always on bsg servers

[lethal sinew]

oh ok

[keen juniper]

Factory is always local no?

[snow stag]

WOW best Beedrom key ever... not even a cat statue... nothing nada

[keen juniper]

Streets is always BSG

[lethal sinew]

all i know woods is local only

[lavish socket]

Really? I thought it’s only for streets that’s forced bsg servers

[lethal sinew]

lightkeeper marked bedroom key?

[snow stag]

yee

[thorn token]

i'll double check rn

[lethal sinew]

yeah what I have heard its completely ass nowdays
back 0.14 when I played it was really good

[thorn token]

just died at dorms due to forgetting to reload

[lethal sinew]

rip

[snow stag]

it always was "bad" but wow nothing not even a chain. empty

[lavish socket]

Rashalla?

[thorn token]

had a clear headshot on this pmc, then click my gun was empty

[lethal sinew]

damn

[thorn token]

no a pmc shooting 7.62x51

[desert wren]

Because I did all the other quests before finishing the ticket, does that mean none of the evidence will spawn now?

[thorn token]

factory is forced local can confirm

[snow stag]

atleast the jacket gave me a cola...

[lethal sinew]

wdym?

[lethal sinew]

ahah

[thorn token]

labs is also forced local

[lethal sinew]

yup

[lethal sinew]

the story quest items you get are the evidence

[thorn token]

woods is also forced local?

[lethal sinew]

yes

[desert wren]

The Wiki said that you should complete the other story quests after the ticket, otherwise the evidence doesn't spawn in again, but I've already done them all

[thorn token]

weird that woods is forced local since the goons can be there

[lethal sinew]

yup enjoy playing low fps woods

and goons

[lavish socket]

Goons show up in woods?

[thorn token]

i've never had fps issues with woods

[snow stag]

yes

[winged otter]

if i complete the christmas event tasks on arena, does the ref rep count for pve or just pvp?

[thorn token]

woods, lighthouse, customs, and shoreline

[lethal sinew]

hmmm weird lemme see I will go and kill kaban and the ones on turret without any granades real quick

[lavish socket]

I guess I gotta keep an eye on “goontracker”

[thorn token]

woods being forced local makes so much sense for me now. playing solo on woods i always have the same extracts

outskirts and zb-014

which sucks

[lavish socket]

I always sown with outskirts extract

I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a zb016 one

[thorn token]

playing in a group i get the other extracts like ruaf and un roadblock

[thorn token]

do you play solo or in a group

[lavish socket]

Solo

[thorn token]

thats why

woods seems to have an extract bug that i dont think many notice

[lavish socket]

I see

[snow stag]

atleast in woods the v-ex ist most of the time there unlike streets

[lavish socket]

Maybe I should play more pve with groups. I haven’t done it so far

[thorn token]

it's not even an exaggeration to say it either, i always have outskirts extract when playing solo

[thorn token]

thats still annoying, i'd like to not have my only two extracts be at opposite ends of the map

[snow stag]

Thats why i dont like woods... To far apart of the things and the middle is just empty

[thorn token]

i was just on woods trying to snipe shturman, i had to transit to customs to actually exfil because outskirts was too far

[lethal sinew]

you can kill the one turret before they react

without any nades just did it

[thorn token]

and ended with me dying at dorms lol

[lethal sinew]

now will go do it from the back side

[thorn token]

chek side or cinema side?

[lethal sinew]

chek side

will go form cinema side noq

died to kaban cus I overpeeked xd

[thorn token]

interesting, i always get beamed if i even show myself a bit there

[lavish socket]

It’s alright… I just get sthurman 100% spawns all the time

And it’s always the times I don’t bring in a scoped rifle

[snow stag]

99% on my side

[thorn token]

i'm convinced boss spawns are actually 100% except for tagilla and the goons

[snow stag]

LMAO 14h cultist circle for 1pack M995... im feeling scammed...

[thorn token]

i dont think ive played a single raid where the boss wasnt there except for factory

[lavish socket]

So from encom base to trying to sneak from lakeside (my fault) either he just rushes me or I die from guards

[lavish socket]

I haven’t encountered the goons yet in my time playing pve. So I’m lucky I guess

I just unlocked reserve so I may find glukhar

[thorn token]

got them on customs one time and was able to cheese them at power warehouse

[lethal sinew]

#videos message

[peak coral]

someone pick a map for me i cant decide

[lethal sinew]

streets

[peak coral]

ok

[thorn token]

goons aren't too bad if you can get into a building, which is why woods sucks to fight them on

[lavish socket]

I ironically haven’t found rashalla yet either.

Been looking at new gas a couple of times and one time at dorms for that one therapist quest

[thorn token]

he spawns at either new gas, dorms, or stronghold

dorms is probably the easiest to fight him at

[thorn token]

bro was looking at his phone instead of the entrance he was guarding

[lavish socket]

Doesn’t he have like 4 guards or whatever

[thorn token]

yea

[lethal sinew]

yeah xd

[peak coral]

are they on woods rn

[thorn token]

and they usually stay next to each other, at dorms you can just toss a grenade down the hall and get at least 2 of the guards

[thorn token]

customs according to the tracker

[lethal sinew]

about to go do it form cinema side now

[lavish socket]

Goontracker says custom

[lethal sinew]

customs yup

[thorn token]

they spawn at stronghold on customs

but can and will venture out from there to the surrounding areas if theyre chasing pmcs

[lavish socket]

Or if bird eye spots you

[thorn token]

fought reshala on 3rd floor dorms by marked room, tossed a nade and took out all but one guard once

[lethal sinew]

lmao nice

[thorn token]

they were all just grouped up in the hallway with one dude in the kitchen

[broken gull]

what ya'll doing

[thorn token]

malding i lost my svds to a timmy mistake

[broken gull]

RIP,

[thorn token]

and my nl 545

[lethal sinew]

goofing around in streets cus I am bored

[thorn token]

forgot to reload 🙁

[lethal sinew]

prob will go with revolver only to labyrinth soon for fun as well

[broken gull]

i'm listening to the golden era of music, around 2011 to 2018

[lethal sinew]

idk

[thorn token]

should i hunt shturmy with a mjolnir now

[lavish socket]

Man, I’ve been waiting for streets to release for years. Now that it’s out, I still haven’t bothered trying that map out since I came back to this game. Is it good or bad?

[lethal sinew]

it is my top 1 map

It is good

[thorn token]

if you've got the right keys yea theres good stuff

[lethal sinew]

even without keys

[thorn token]

it does take a minute to get used to the layout

[lethal sinew]

u can still get guud loot

[thorn token]

and killing kaban takes actual practice to learn the strat for assaulting his compound

[fierce yacht]

Anyone need anything dropping? Got 150m to give away

[thorn token]

kollontay you can just bum rush it if hes in the mvd

[lethal sinew]

hmm problem

[thorn token]

i'll take some keycards

[lethal sinew]

i think from cinema side it is not really possible or at least very hard

[thorn token]

theres more guard cover on cinema side so they see you earlier i think

[broken gull]

i'll take whatever u are willing to give, i'm broke rn

[lethal sinew]

there is that

second turret on the granade launcher only reason

[thorn token]

i tried using aspect recently only to not even make it to the door because basmach saw me and head jaws instantly

[lethal sinew]

oh from the

yeah stairs xd

[thorn token]

nah i came from cinema side by the street to it

i think the issue was a pmc group had engaged the compound right there just before and died

[lethal sinew]

mm

[thorn token]

so basmach was already posted up

[lethal sinew]

prob yuh

[hazy pasture]

does anyone know where the pmc spawn on woods and shoreline ive been struggleing to find them on both maps

[thorn token]

shoreline has the densest amount of spawns for pmcs, just look anywhere near the edges of the map

you can usually find some though typically near the smuggler camp by road to customs

and then obviously resort

woods, you just gotta get lucky

[lavish socket]

I did see landmark and other streamers just spam nades at him

[hazy pasture]

ive been ruinning to resport everytime adn i feel like i just never find em

but ill try smuggler camp

[thorn token]

theres a pmc spawn near the train station on woods, and at the hill just south of old sawmill near the batya graves

also near the usec camp by scav bunker

[hazy pasture]

aight thanks for the help

[thorn token]

i've also seen them spawn at usec checkpoint by sawmill

although that was only once, and it was weird

they were all merged into each other

[lethal sinew]

@thorn token #videos message

[thorn token]

i thought it was just one guy, shot him, and he became 4 guys and i got ganked

[lethal sinew]

not sure but i prob just skill issue and whiffed but it looked like i did hit him

[thorn token]

looked like it, honestly surprised you didn't die there

[lethal sinew]

next peek i did lmao

[thorn token]

lol

[thick bronze]

Does Terminal now support 2 people escape if I goup up with one of my frined ?

[lethal sinew]

i decide to just ego peek fuck it and see how it goes lmao commited to the spray

[thorn token]

up to 3 people now can escape at once

[thick bronze]

Thank you 🙂

[thorn token]

if in a 4 man group, only 3, 5 man only 4

but up to 3 everyone can now

[lethal sinew]

time to go labyrinth with revolver only :p

[subtle valve]

Finally Kaban had PKP, as a bonus had 300 LPS rounds in mags and I found NecrusPharm key in drawers there

[lethal sinew]

scope or no scope?

[subtle valve]

Great success, and 36k exp raid

[lethal sinew]

for the revolver

[subtle valve]

No scope, irons are best

[lethal sinew]

aighty

[subtle valve]

Unless you want 200m+ shots

[lethal sinew]

going labyrinth with rev only for fun

[subtle valve]

Aaand I can update my lvl to 57 😄

Ya, I saw that

Have fun, take some flashbangs with you

[thorn hedge]

Lets say im below avarage on aim- would a ash 12 be a stupid idea for kaban? since there is only 20 bullets in the mag?

[subtle valve]

You want Ash12 to be in single fire mode anyway

[lethal sinew]

is good idea but boring so no xd

[lavish socket]

How many extra mags

[thorn hedge]

I got 4 mags + the one in the gun

[lethal sinew]

good enough

[thorn hedge]

im just scared i wont be able to change mag fast enough even if i double R

[subtle valve]

Full auto Ash is not manageable without some magical macro, you fast tap and then you can kill nicely with it

[agile mantle]

anyone else having issues with dlss 4.5 with smooth motion on?

[subtle valve]

I just Killed everything in Lexos just with AK-308 with TWC SP ammo xD

[agile mantle]

game feels like its fluctuating between 20 and 80fps on first raid after that its fine

[viral karma]

ive crashed like 6 times and lost all my fkn progress / quest items, even a redkeycard. 1.0 is such a joke

[lethal sinew]

rip

[subtle valve]

Sounds like your PC is the problem

[lethal sinew]

lmao

da fuck double selection?

on revolver and wtf

[subtle valve]

You mean single or double action modes?

[viral karma]

hell fucking no

[lethal sinew]

oh yuh double action*

[subtle valve]

Well... Tarkov runs ok on my machine which is not NASA level, sooo....

[subtle valve]

SA better imo unless you want to spam rounds close range

[viral karma]

whats OK tho. 40 fps when you scope in? its laughably bad

[lethal sinew]

oh ok

[rough badge]

I agree

[viral karma]

its a bloody miracle. I was actually able to re-connect

[subtle valve]

60-70 on local LH right now, on bsg servers is 90-100

5800x3d + RX 9070 + 32GB DDR4

[viral karma]

same RAM here, 3080ti, cant name the CPU at the top of my head. But it really varies

[subtle valve]

Ram is 3600MHz CL16, that helps a lot with stutters.
If you can, try to set your CPU OC to boost for single core performance

[lethal sinew]

hmm this is rather hard for sure

[reef turtle]

In his defense, my PC is pretty trash, but it ran the game 40-50 FPS stable for the past 7 years, but since 1.0 release it struggles and sometimes rolls into the 10 FPS region on streets, with having hella crashes for absolutely no reason

[lethal sinew]

spawned ins team room and on top where you find the red wheel to turn off the trap xd but its fun

[crystal spear]

does anyone knows if REF quest Create a Distraction - Part 2 is bugged? I just killed kaban and all his guards but the quest did not register killing the guards (it did for the kill kaban quest)

[lethal sinew]

actually something hard

[reef turtle]

Dont kill Kaban, Gus or Basmach

[crystal spear]

oh yea thats what i saw popping up

thanks, i wondered what failed

[drowsy juniper]

Best way to do it is just try to kill the sniper guards and reset

silly quest

[crystal spear]

ah well i ll get it now that i know what the issue is

thank you ❤️

[drowsy juniper]

good luck

[strange tiger]

Has anyone acctually found a cofdm in labrys, iv found vpx, vertex, gpus, rifds and shit but no cofdm

[drowsy juniper]

yeah ive found a ton

[reef turtle]

Yes

[drowsy juniper]

always check observation room as well, found multiple in there sometimes 2 in one raid

[lethal sinew]

yes all the time

[strange tiger]

I have done so many labrys and not found a single 1, shits cray

[stable oxide]

yeah they do spawn

[strange tiger]

Stupid level 60 quest, needing 5

[viral karma]

you prolly know this but rb-pkpts is quite good for it

[waxen scaffold]

I might be late to the game on this but has anyone else noticed a significant chane in loose loot? Labs is almost not worth the risk these days. For me anyway..

[strange tiger]

Yeah was gunna use up my keys for that, been doin dripout part 2 while lookin for them on LH, 2 birds 1 stone kinda deal

[viral karma]

i used up a whole key before i even needex vpx, virtex, or anything like that so I had like 20 lol

[thorn hedge]

Loose loot was nerfed when the christmas event was rleased

[lethal sinew]

#screenshots message

[waxen scaffold]

Do you know if they're planning to UNnerf it? LOL

[lethal sinew]

made 30mil

[viral karma]

explains why so many rooms havent been hittin anymore

[lethal sinew]

unlucky

[thorn hedge]

i saw all the complaints and stopped running labs until people start bragging again 😂

[cold panther]

After getting 50 gpus for my bitcoin farm, I am making so much money by opening everything, but the red, green and blue

[viral karma]

black has been so bad for me. havent found a single ledx there

[lethal sinew]

idk look the screens share i dont know what people complaining about rly
yes it its some what worse than before but it aint that bad its worth to complain about it constantly

[strange tiger]

Wait

[strange tiger]

which black

[viral karma]

the one under green, NOT the office

[lethal sinew]

normal black has always been d0gshit since 1.0 what I have heard never open it

never open it unless you see ledx there waste of use

[strange tiger]

Oh dont do that poopoo room, only office

[viral karma]

yeah I just started peekin thru the window. Idk I never actually opened black, I played PVP a shit ton like 5 years ago

[strange tiger]

Ayy same. Came back for 1.0 got confused about streets and ground zero, played pve to learn them. Kinda just stayed

[viral karma]

i tried to run PVP this wipe, but I just cba anymore

[rare field]

task manager, tells you your cpu

[strange tiger]

I was pumpin it for abit, even done setup, but then i hit the fucking bolty slog and just went nahhh

[viral karma]

feels like everyone is a 2000-5000 hour sweat. It's more frustration for less fun. I'd rather just chill and at least be able to play terminal eitherway

[strange tiger]

Uhoh, i should hide

IM A FORMER 6k HOUR SWEAT PROMISE

IM WASHED!

[viral karma]

its cool bro, game was actually fun back then

even I ran to dorms to PVP at some point, not anymore tho lol

[lethal sinew]

I was a lab enjoyer then took long break cus why not come back 1.0 and was meh can't be asked to sweat atm so hop on pve

[viral karma]

I just wish the PVE AI was a bit more random. like in SPT

[strange tiger]

My old goto map was interchange/woods. But on woods i was a big W key player, smg kinda shit

[lethal sinew]

i wish they were good and not braindead pepega

[strange tiger]

shh we do not speak its name here

[astral kindle]

Don't talk about those 3 letters in here

[viral karma]

haha

[viral karma]

the amount of times im staring them in the face and they dont even see me

[jovial cobalt]

ai pmcs idle for way too long

[lethal sinew]

yeah man I wish I could do terminal agaain butr i cant be asked reset acc and grind again to get kappa etc

[jovial cobalt]

like on factory i can almost always find them still just standing in their spawn facing one direction, then they face the other, and dont do anything else

[strange tiger]

The AI i die to are cracked tarkov raiders on labs, 6 pmcs catching me thru a bush or me doin some derpy shit like chasing a shotty scav with my melee wep

[viral karma]

literally tho, every raid theres like 3 pmcs doing nothing at Gate 3 for me

[strange tiger]

They need BD movement, where they try to flank and move

[thorn hedge]

Wtf first cultis kill and a 314 key xD

[viral karma]

thats nice luck lol

[thorn token]

if only it was good

[thorn hedge]

i need it for the quest idc about the room xD

[thorn token]

save the key for now

do the quest

[strange tiger]

It can be, but if you open it after 10mins in the raid, there is a good chance a pmc/scav has vaccumed somethin and walked off

[thorn token]

then save it for later

i just wish marked rooms were always good lmao

this whole time since 1.0 i've only found 2 marked keys

and both were in the past week

[strange tiger]

I want them to be like 50/50, pure disapointment and massive dopeamine

[thorn token]

glukhar had abandoned factory on him, and then my cult circle gave me RB-BK

[strange tiger]

its either a pm pistol and a gp coin, or 3 labs cards, key tool and keycards case

[thorn token]

or was it the bloody key that gave me BK?

i think it was bloody key actually

[strange tiger]

Thats bloody sick mate

[thorn token]

i want an injectors case so bad

i'm at a point where i want to be using those finally without clogging up my ass space

[worn finch]

Has anyone seen the Rusted Bloody key at all this wipe?

[viral karma]

there's a loose case spawn on Customs. I've found 2 there. You have to get lucky tho

[thorn token]

i've found it twice

[viral karma]

ive found it twice or thrice, my mate found it once

[worn finch]

Checked it like 40 times and no spawn

[viral karma]

havent seen one since tho

[thorn token]

once from a scav case

[strange tiger]

Not even kidding, over 100 streets raids to find 1, then i poped a fkn firework airdrop AND GOT ANOTHER

[thorn token]

and the other at its spawn in klimov

[viral karma]

oh yeah firework is goated

my mate got a black card from it, I got a marked

also a voilet

[thorn token]

where at

[worn finch]

Okay. I'll keep trying, cheers all!

[strange tiger]

Its honestly a slog when you get unlucky, but it CAN spawn

[worn finch]

Oh, while im here...

Are marked room spawns still borked?

There was a few days where they were spawning like nothing

[thorn token]

as in bad? yea

[viral karma]

warehouse 3, near old gas

[strange tiger]

borked ish, they can still work but its more like a 1-in-4 kinda deal

[rare field]

How they should be

[worn finch]

Ahh okay, that's unfortunate

[thorn token]

then the keys should have more uses lmao

[thorn hedge]

Damn - ran towards green flare on customs and there all guards of rashala was - i sprayed my ash - 12 in hope that i would survive, i have my head left everything else is blackced 😂

[rare field]

Nope

[thorn token]

1 in 4 on a 10 use key is crazy

[rare field]

Thats just beeing unlucky

[thorn token]

keys are hard enough as is to get

[worn finch]

How? You literally just said that is how you think it should be?

[strange tiger]

If only the prices were at the pvp levels of cost on the flea. But pve's are triple what they cost on pvp

[rare field]

blame the people putting it up for that price & the ones that are dumb enough to pay for said prices

[thorn token]

which is insane given pve has objectively lower loot rates than pvp

[lethal sinew]

fr

[worn finch]

I guess that is why?
Lower loot rate means less rare keys being found and circulating

So high price

[thorn token]

the 50/50 isnt a bad concept, but that good 50% better be absolutely cracked

[rare field]

plus this is pve people litteraly never lose roubles to begin with so that 10mil difference is just pocket change

[lethal sinew]

yp

[thorn token]

and not just a keycard thats useless anyways and some guns

[viral karma]

i just looted the marked because I like to gamble lol

[lethal sinew]

we love gambling

[viral karma]

fuck it if you lose money, I want that dopamine

[strange tiger]

I also think people will pay that much because they can just do the dumb alt-f4 thing if its bad. I think thats why the streets keys are a bit cheaper sometimes

[strange tiger]

Same, love the gamble

[subtle valve]

Whatever I find in mark rooms is worth it cuz all my marks are found in raid, so I paid nothing for them

[viral karma]

hold uppp you mean like quitting so the key resets and you can open it again? never thought about that lol

[thorn token]

yea no i refuse to buy marked keys lmao

[strange tiger]

Yes. Thats how that works. Yep.

And you should not do that, waste of your time, exp, skill gain etc

[rare field]

Litteraly one of the reasons yup

[lethal sinew]

they cost nothing

[thorn token]

yea if i hit dorms marked, get reshala wipe and the exp from it, i'm not doing the reset lmao

exp is way better than money or loot

[subtle valve]

What about shared bedroom mark? You can play it local and the 10/10 key is below 1.5M rub all the time

[thorn token]

still like 8 mil for a one use key

[viral karma]

lol i mean, if its early game and I need some shit. Cba doing it now tho

[rare field]

by the time you escape / have kappa money means completely NOTHING and you'll be just be focusing leveling lvl's / skills

[strange tiger]

That key is dogass, its less a marked room and more a room with some rare spawns in it

[thorn token]

idk i'm lvl 39 and still chill between 7-9 mil roubles on hand typically

[lethal sinew]

still nothing

[thorn token]

granted i dont go out of my way to make money either

[viral karma]

I think you can profit off it pretty easily tho. Got 2 btc and it still has uses left

[thorn token]

thats just from casually looting and selling valuables

[rare field]

fck i've been running factory for up to 2 weeks or longer already and make 20mil a day by just lvling skills lol

[thorn token]

i tend to hoard my junk still, have hideout upgrades to work on still

[rare field]

all my junk goes to quest dailys

[daring flicker]

Money doesnt mean anything on PVE cos you dont die so dont need to keep buying kits along with items for Hideout etc

[thorn token]

need to level up my hall of fame, gear and weapon racks, and shooting range still

[subtle valve]

Been there 5 times, basically every time I need to visit LK i check it. For now it was just dogshit loot. The dome area on the island has better loot and more btc than the mark

Also, the amount of MTube that are on LK island is sick, I have like 3-4 every time

[strange tiger]

But waht if you try to barrel stuff a scavs saiga-12 so you can melee it in the head because funzies?

[thorn token]

unless you're doing shit like learning to kill kaban lmao. I died so many times before finally getting that clear

[daring flicker]

Killing keban isnt so hard, clearing the guards are more annoying

[thorn token]

never went after him before 1.0

[daring flicker]

Gotta flahbang them

[thorn token]

my first attempt recently i got too close to the sidewalk and hit a claymore

[strange tiger]

Fk that, RUN AT THE MOFUCKER. I WILL HUNT HIM DOWN AND CLEAVE HIM IN FUCKING TWO

[thorn token]

i knew they were there, but not how far out it went

[strange tiger]

Sorry

[rare field]

Kebab guards require litteraly just staring at the Machine gun thats the fun part

[thorn token]

also lost a fair amount of kits to tagilla trying to do secured perimeter before getting a good strat from someone here last night

could not get him to shoot me, just death charge me and whack me

[daring flicker]

I nearly died to Tagilla as I was tryna kill him with a blicky and a shovel

[strange tiger]

I love peeking the blokes on the MG's just to see if i can hs them before they kill me

[rare field]

Tagilla is such a joke

man needs hes brother for help to make factory more enjoyable

[thorn token]

its funny i typically have no issues with killing killa, but tagilla will get me still after some bs move

[strange tiger]

I think i ran like 7 raids in a row full naked cept a gun because i wanted to be tagged and cursed

didnt even die doin that

[subtle valve]

You can easily wipe all from tarbank side

Starting with the 3F above tarbank to kill roof ones and GL guy

[thorn token]

he gets me in his 10 yard sprint, i wasnt running fleshy ammo to kill him so he caught up to me

[daring flicker]

I dont play Streets only played it 5x, but got keban and them all 3/3 times

[subtle valve]

I finally today after like 15 times killng Kaban got PKP from him 😄

[daring flicker]

I dont know Streets so dont play it, need to do my shooter born there sometime

[thorn token]

thank god i dont need to farm kaban for his pkp

[thorn hedge]

i have 30 aspect keys now and no pkp 😂 fkin kaban

[thorn token]

my friend just escaped with the savior ending yesterday, it gives you 3 pkps, he dropped two for a friend and myself

[daring flicker]

Finally got the kills in Factory office

Getting the last one was a lil annoying

[thorn hedge]

I hope in the future they can implement the weapon rack to the stash - so that we can choose those weapons aswell without having to go into our hideout

[thorn token]

doesnt the gear rack already do that?

make loadouts

[thorn hedge]

i mean when you click on "on sling" u get all the weapons available to choose from - instead of fiinding the weapon, but the weapon rack you have to manually go into your hideout - transfere the weapon into your stash - then choose it

[daring flicker]

Is it even worth doing the Scav case anymore with the prices of moonshine and Intel

[daring flicker]

omg you just reminded me, I forgot about the weapon rack lol, too much effort to do that so I forgot it existed

[thorn hedge]

i mean - why not? u CAN get some nice items, i actually finished some quests and hideout upgrades from scav case, and tbh finding electric drills today is more rare then finding marked 314 key it seems , and i got some of those there aswell even tho its not the "prefered" items to get from intel and moonshine

[thorn hedge]

😂 yea i just upgrade it so i can have a fully upgraded hideout eventually

[daring flicker]

I just had a stack of cursed weapons on my rack I forgot about

[rare field]

Bruh scav case intel gave me intel back 2 times in a row already

[thorn hedge]

Is the AK-308 any good?

[astral kindle]

Yes

can players with different endings run terminal together? or have to have the same ending

Does Terminal have different "quests" if its different endings? or is the ending choosen after extract?

[rare field]

like 25-30 mil not bad

now I am ready to open the marked room and find absolutely nothing

[mystic marsh]

I swear

[mystic marsh]

I just was there

[waxen scaffold]

Not saying every time but they are not a myth. LOL

[rare field]

[thorn hedge]

Take 4439835 looking for pkp - ACTION!

[mystic marsh]

maybe if i donate 5 non FIR ones to circle they will give me one

[thin wyvern]

want some help with it?

Already got a few of em

[thorn hedge]

i have no issue doing kaban - he just doesnt wanna use it 😂 but thanks!

[mystic marsh]

Killed a VERY BEAR looking scav while playing as a scav

He even had a holster and a decent kit with helmet and armor

-fence rep :(

[past stump]

bro i used to kill scavs on scavs because i didn’t know

[mystic marsh]

Happened in the same raid where I managed to kill 3 USECs with my starter gun and 2 with a scavenged gun

[mystic marsh]

Bro I swear he looked like a bear

scavs rarely have holsters too

[past stump]

ya

have you guys noticed that scav reads on pve the bears won’t shoot at you until you shoot at them

[bright sand]

usec dont engage first if you have 6 fence rep

[thorn hedge]

Bruh - im lvl 9 endurance and lvl 26 strenght xD

[modern veldt]

need to run more

[thorn hedge]

i need to run lighter loadouts

[lethal sinew]

you want to get ur strenght first to elite

[modern veldt]

I believe it levels under and over weight as well

[thorn hedge]

im pretty sure that when your weight becomes yellow u wont lvl endurance

[hollow steppe]

hey uh, is 9.3x64 rounds lootable, if so where can I find it?

Dont really wanna be stuck with just 50 rounds per vendor reset lol

[drowsy juniper]

Shturman if he spawns with TKPD, and most loose ammo spawns can spawn boxes of it, Box is a blueish/greenish colour, Found a bunch on woods

[hollow steppe]

glad to know it can be a loose spawn ty, so far shturman hasnt really used a tkpd in my experience so far

[drowsy juniper]

yeah shturman isnt really consistent spawning with TKPD

not as rare as his G28 tho

[hollow steppe]

its mostly svds I noticed

ah

[drowsy juniper]

ive killed shturman a ton, seen TKPD like 3 times

but worth checking if you do kill him

[hollow steppe]

I still suck at bosses in this game cause they dome me when I see a pixel of them lol

[modern veldt]

Been noticing he doesnt spawn until you get closer to sawmill. Ive sat up on sniper rock a few times and waited 10 mins, nothing. Moved in and boom, he spawns with guards

[hasty pewter]

T5000 FLIR sight helps a shag ton especially with Sthurman

[hollow steppe]

yeah I do everytime I can, also primarily to get a red rebel to finish off no questions asked

[lethal sinew]

ended up resetting my acc cus I want to do terminal again lmao time to speedrun this shi so i can run terminal forever cus i will i just kill my self with granada :p

at the end

[hasty pewter]

Anyone have any issues with PMCs spawning at dorms?

[hollow steppe]

thats my plan, just... need to get mechanic LL4 because the barter isnt absurdly expensive unlike jaeger

[modern veldt]

yes

[modern veldt]

15 runs and no pmcs

[stable oxide]

They dont usually spawn there but they do roam to dorms from the shoreline transit

Theyll spawn right behind the transit and make their way to 3-story

[subtle valve]

By that you mean they spawn too often or not at all?

[hasty pewter]

Ah yeah once you get that, you're sorted

[hasty pewter]

Not at all

[hasty pewter]

Ah so you just need to get lucky really?

[stable oxide]

Run marked keys for red rebel shturman has a pretty low chance of dropping it

[stable oxide]

Basically lol sadly

[civic lintel]

It's real rare they go there. If they do it's late in raid and if they survived long enough to go

[hollow steppe]

I heard people tend to do scav runs on reserve to farm good ammo, I assume this is still viable? I want to use really good ammo without having my hands tied my on my back by vendor reset

[stable oxide]

They can go early if they spawn nearby but thats up to luck mostly

[hollow steppe]

ah alright, luckily I have a few mainly for reserve

[drowsy juniper]

reserve ones have dropped the most RR's for me so you should be good

[stable oxide]

Bunch of maps have good ammo spawns woods isnt even bad realistically if you run usec camp/med camp and that new bear outpost near sawmill

[stable oxide]

Vo/pkpm are you best bets for rr

[sage sandal]

i gotta say, grumpy has been incredibly dissapointing for the cost. its been near empty every open

[stable oxide]

Bk can drop it but ive noticed its not great in my experience

[civic lintel]

Voron or Lucas are the only ones worth it tbh

[stable oxide]

Tried voron aswell and its very mid

[hollow steppe]

I've got the rbvo key so ill give that a try

[sage sandal]

voron was like 5x better than grumpy, i wanted grumpy for ammo but theres maybe like 1 pack or 0

[stable oxide]

Voron can have decent attachments and gpus/leddies but good plates is grumpy/kiba mainly

[sage sandal]

yea i did one open of voron instant ledx, everything else just pure $

[civic lintel]

Voron also has violet card spawn which is a nice bonus

[stable oxide]

Vo is solid bunch of guns and keycard spawns (make sure you empty out the room and have a close look at the actual circle cause keycards can be hard to spot)

[stable oxide]

True i did get one last time

[sage sandal]

3 opens of grumpy and i got 1 ppbs 120 box, a couple plates, 2 mai ap 30 boxes and i dont even remember the other one it was that dissapointing. voron for sure

[hollow steppe]

Hah yeah i stay there to make sure I got absolutely everything

[sage sandal]

never again. ill just run labs for ammo

[hollow steppe]

I almost missed a marked key drop one time because I didnt look properly

[stable oxide]

Grumpy is mostly plates for ammo you can either hunt bosses/pmcs or just find good boxes all throughout no keys needed

[hollow steppe]

for labs the red key is ideal for ammo rigth?

[sage sandal]

red and residential iirc

[civic lintel]

Red has great ammo spawns yeah

[stable oxide]

Otherwise streets has a few good spots like tg armory/mvd entrance and cargo container

[hollow steppe]

aha

[civic lintel]

Also just good in general for Ledx and intel spawns

[hollow steppe]

ive never been to labs so ill do a few practice runs before I actually go in it

[civic lintel]

Labs isn't to bad. PMCs are PMCs and raiders are braindead

[sage sandal]

just a tip, the ai always aims center mass, so dont try to peak and expose just your head cause they will target your head if thats all there is to target.

[stable oxide]

Labs is your best bet for ammo, keep in mind ppbs and ssa ap are overrated af they're really not that good to run even for killa/tagilla

[sage sandal]

if your thorax is exposed, thats where they shoot. if only your head is, that is where they shoot.

[alpine escarp]

streets armory is locked in

[hollow steppe]

and there isnt a lot of them too I heard, and yeah I dont really have an issue dealing with raiders

[stable oxide]

Weird

[hollow steppe]

gotcha

[stable oxide]

Might have a look after

[civic lintel]

M61 or PS12B for killa, Tagilla. specially Shadow and vengful

[stable oxide]

Yep

[alpine escarp]

no as its a very nice poi

[alpine escarp]

use US buddy

[stable oxide]

Yes so is mvd and cargo theyre all keys

[alpine escarp]

dont be a bitch

or FMJ

[stable oxide]

But they have great ammo spawns

[sage sandal]

only reason i mention it is the vertical levels of labs can make you accidently expose only your head to raiders and they just pop ya

[alpine escarp]

FMJ > m61

[sage sandal]

other than that its pretty meh

[civic lintel]

US on shadow? That;d be a waste of a laby card barter

[mystic marsh]

Sacrificed 5 non FIR drills to the cultists, I wonder

[stable oxide]

Good headset required for sure and then you're chillin

[alpine escarp]

Lowkey just be better

[alpine escarp]

Buy or create labs card, buy a g28 patrol from PK

best thing to sacrifice

[stable oxide]

Whats the timer? Outcome depends on timer mostly

[alpine escarp]

14h everytime

[civic lintel]

Lowkey why be better when I can 2 tap him with decent ammo I can get all the time

[mystic marsh]

8 hours, if they give me a FIR blue drill I am gonna cry

[alpine escarp]

its more fun burning ammo than 2 tapping with good pen ammo

[astral kindle]

What are these arena ques, took 8mins to get into simple checkpoint

[alpine escarp]

I tried using MAI ap, holy fuck they got molested hard

[stable oxide]

8 hours is gonna be mid af lol

[alpine escarp]

mai AP fucked them so hard

[mystic marsh]

I just need a blue drill my guy

[hasty pewter]

I got a 6 hr one and just got an smt drive

[civic lintel]

Less fun getting 2 tapped cos he bounces 20 rounds and shotguns my face

[stable oxide]

just run woods/interchange they're easy to find 😭

[mystic marsh]

"they're easy to find" says you

[alpine escarp]

Saiga 12, drum mag, piranha, AP or flachette and shred

[stable oxide]

wym

[mystic marsh]

I've been looking for several days now

[stable oxide]

goddamn

[mystic marsh]

A week actually

zero drills

[stable oxide]

that's crazy unlucky

[keen juniper]

I find like several per raid at the back of interchange in the mall

[mystic marsh]

I found GPU on Interchange where the drill is supposed to spawn

[alpine escarp]

Drills aint hard to find 😂

legit interchange that shi

[mystic marsh]

Ahahahaha

So true bestie so true

drills are so common

[stable oxide]

yeah rasumussen techo and techlight/back of oli and all of the other toolboxes

[alpine escarp]

Legit do a casual run on interchange farming Killa and whatever else

[stable oxide]

they really aren't rare you just unlucky af

[mystic marsh]

Bro really thinks I'll find a drill in a toolbox

💀

[alpine escarp]

find it as loose loot

[stable oxide]

yea

[mystic marsh]

Bro really thinks it's gonna spawn

It's been over a week and i haven't found a single one

[alpine escarp]

holy shit you're not doing interchange correct then

[stable oxide]

bro talking about edrills like they're loose bitcoins 😭

[waxen scaffold]

That's just unlucky.

[mystic marsh]

Bro I swear I'll sooner find a btc

I already found a gpu before a drill

[waxen scaffold]

They become more rare when you need them. Like all these metal parts I need atm. It knows....

[stable oxide]

tbf gpus on interchange aren't exactly too rare even as loose

[mystic marsh]

I can't be THAT unucky

[stable oxide]

then you're not looting correctly

[alpine escarp]

^

[civic lintel]

Go buy the cage keys for reserve and hit the crates

[mystic marsh]

I swear something is rigged

[stable oxide]

that too

[waxen scaffold]

If you have been farming Iterchange for a week and haven't found a drill then you have to either be blind or unlucky af

[mystic marsh]

Nah I only went interchange a few times

[sage sandal]

if im looking for 2x2 hardware items i go to the green flare extract area, never lets me down

dont even go in the mall

[mystic marsh]

I usually loot everything on underground parking lot as a scav on gz

[alpine escarp]

???

Always go in the mall gng

[mystic marsh]

found some working LCDs there so drill must spawn

[alpine escarp]

Dont avoid Killa like a bitch

[mystic marsh]

it just decides not to

[stable oxide]

tbf those camps near flare are great too

[mystic marsh]

Been there several times, nothing

Drill isn't supposed to be THAT rare

[sage sandal]

killa isnt scary, its just a waste of time. hitting the scav camp my pack is full of loot and i can just knock them out over and over
