[quartz thicket]

howd it go

[fervent peak]

They have answered, there's a LFG command

Now give me a 'Just go again' command

[silent eagle]

So far its working. I haven't tried going into raid yet kinda nervous atm😅🤣

[distant obsidian]

mhm

[quartz thicket]

Aint gonna know until you try. Do it padawan

[fervent peak]

Hold up, first raid ever, or ever, but solo?

[verbal night]

anyone else's mannequins bugged?

[quartz thicket]

no his pc is acting up

[fervent peak]

ah

[distant obsidian]

is his drivers and bios up to date?

[quartz thicket]

wait ZF no joke? lol whens the escape from tarkov videos

[silent eagle]

Im about to throw on a cheap pistol kit and try running interchange, thats what map I was loading up when it started

[distant obsidian]

what about your drivers and bios?

[silent eagle]

Drivers and bios are fine, just checked everything once I got it back on and temps are fine too, maybe it was a seating issue

[distant obsidian]

fine or updated?

[silent eagle]

And ive been meaning to record but been dealing with a lot of irl shit but I plan on making something soon

[pseudo kayak]

how many ps12b shots to tagillas face to down him? can i also just shoot his chest?

[silent eagle]

He at almost a full mag for me once

[pseudo kayak]

chest or face of ps12b

[fervent peak]

About 3-6, depending on bounces (I don't actually know, but you can gut his stomach with PS12A and it should down him pretty quick)

His stomach is not armoured

[silent eagle]

Face, but he messed me up a bit with his shotgun

[quartz thicket]

give cyanide a fuck you for me lol

[pseudo kayak]

faster than hydrashok 45 acp vector?

[fervent peak]

RIP is faster

[pseudo kayak]

so i am safe to shoot tagilla in the face w ps12b

[fervent peak]

Mostly, the first bullet or two won't pen enough

[silent eagle]

Updated like 3 days ago, same with drivers, my guess is maybe something got knocked loose cause now its powering up fine and even cleaned the fans a bit

[fervent peak]

After that it's free game

[silent eagle]

@quartz thicket I got you the next time i talk to em

[distant obsidian]

ah k then.

[silent eagle]

Honestly just FMJ 45 is pretty decent, maybe not so much for tagilla unless you leg meta but its nasty against pmcs

[torpid bluff]

Is there a reason lightkeeper keeps having this long ah speech whenever you talk to him about anything but completing information source?

[young frost]

yea. check the ballistics chart on the wiki. just cus something says low pen on 5/6 doesnt make it "low"

like lows are not created equal

[silent eagle]

PS12B drops killa just fine, ive killed him 9 times already and he drops pretty easily

[stone harbor]

guys, i need to ask, I'm doing the long range sniping that is more than 300m in LH, but the hit decal was not visible so I can't see where the bullet drop. is there a way to fix this?

[silent eagle]

Run tracers

[stone harbor]

damn that is the only way?

[torpid bluff]

the easiest way

[silent eagle]

Use a tracer to track your shot placement

[stone harbor]

so maybe 2~3 first rounds is tracer and the rest is my best choice of ammo?

[silent eagle]

Yes

[torpid bluff]

otherwise use a raptor tactical device

and zero the scope on the distance closest to your desire

[stone harbor]

but then the velocity is different a bit right? at 300+, the bullet drop will be significantly varied more right?

ahhh this is much better XD

[torpid bluff]

depends on the ammo you use

[brisk stag]

Well damn. I sniped Knight but couldn't see Big Pipe and he wasted me

[stone harbor]

I will do this, less hassle

thanks friend

[torpid bluff]

any time

[torpid bluff]

classic goon moment

[stone harbor]

btw, If I'm in scope aim, how can I see the raptor calculation without having to exit the scope aim?

[brisk stag]

1 Goon down, two more to go for Stray Dogs

[stone harbor]

is there a function for this?

[quartz thicket]

move your noggin with the middle mouse

[torpid bluff]

you can sometimes do it when you are on lower zoom (1x) and when it is on top of your rifle's barrel

[orchid crest]

just absolutely smoked the goons on lighthouse

[stone harbor]

you can do that? i will try

[brisk stag]

The duality of Tarkov

[torpid bluff]

Actually yeah. just tested it. Way better than my suggestion tbh

[orchid crest]

#screenshots message best part i dont even have stray dogs yet lol

[brisk stag]

Feel that. I wiped them once on Customs by shear luck before I got the quest.

[hearty vapor]

they need to make PMCs in pve smarter

the AI is very questionable at times

"I SEE THE ENEMY"

[brisk stag]

Done, all PMCs now use Goon & Black Division AI

[clear wasp]

I remember when they were just reskinned Rogues and laser-beamed you the second they saw you, that was wild

They'd also just hang out with bosses and never move under any circumstances besides a grenade

[willow ridge]

is there anyone that knows if that "mark of the unheard" device works at all?

[silent eagle]

Yes but its not worth having on you if your planning on killing scavs

[gray wigeon]

if you have decent(no clue how much exactly) reputation with fence and you have it on your pmc then scavs dont shoot you from over 50meters or something like that

and yeah you lose rep if you attack scav

it is dogshit cus if they made it anyusefull then there would be even bigger outrage there was when unheard came out

[willow ridge]

ok thanks, yeah I knew about the losing rep, but I wasnt sure if I could run up on a scav or not. I have a quest to kill 7 pmc's without killing any scavs for fence

[gray wigeon]

take ks23 and somezevada ammo

as offhand

[willow ridge]

ok thanks

[gray wigeon]

remember to wear wielding gogles

or some other high protection eyewear

[hearty vapor]

im gonna go to labyrinth with a ppsh

[gray wigeon]

against flashbangs

[gray wigeon]

i mean, shadow tagila have only 75hp total more than normal tagila
shouldnt be much different with legging him

[flint silo]

mechanic has a yellow call sign next to him but when i talk to him he doesnt have any important dialog, how do i fix this

[brisk stag]

Might wanna close the game and clear cache.

[flint silo]

how do i clear cache again?

[brisk stag]

Click on the 'Game settings' menu in the launcher

[flint silo]

thank you\

still doesnt have anything to say

[brisk stag]

What story task are you on?

[flint silo]

well im doing batya, the ticket, and the unheard, non of which require mechanic at the current moment

[brisk stag]

Classic tarkov bug it sounds like then

[flint silo]

although light keeper has my reports ready so maybe thats why?

[stone harbor]

true, but they are at a level that is fair or easy to most ppl, but is a menace to others. my friends are all old buds so we can't conduct gun fight like you youngsters.

[north idol]

anyone wanna go cultist hunting

[stone harbor]

cultist hunting in Custom near Fortress is still a thing? All I see is Reshala smoking my arse and no cultist found

[pseudo kayak]

does a 20 round of flechette work on tagilla

[sand stag]

just got on here to ask about cultists

are there any good videos or guides? i wanna see someone doing it rather than a video of just “here’s where they spawn”

[willow ridge]

I just finished hell on earth 2, found the priest and 3 followers behind crack house

[stone harbor]

crackhouse is the 2 story house that near the buses?

[willow ridge]

Correct

[stone harbor]

damn I will go there tonight, I was camping and scouting in the fortress area for 4 raids and found no cultist

they might as well spawn at that location XD

any tip to hunt for them beside check bush and be paranoid of my back?

[willow ridge]

they can spawn anywhere in that area from the wall behind crack house, all the way to the side of fortress over by old gas...

[stone harbor]

damn now that's a very interesting spawn placement, lots of bushes and covers

[willow ridge]

honestly I got lucky, I ran into crack house was checking for rashala and the boys at the fortress and just happen to peek out the back of crack house and the priest was against the wall

[marsh wing]

I was told once i got to Lav 3 i should start making plates?

is there a recipe or something i need to find or unlock?

[subtle timber]

does anyone have a zabrolo body armor they are willing to give up? i need one for the task but i cant find one

[brisk stag]

Very happy with my Streets raid. Moonshine and lion out of relaxation and an Ash-12 and Mk17 from Factory mark

[sand stag]

how do we know which one is the priest?

[brisk stag]

If it weren't for Big Pipe lasering me, I'd have a spare to give you. Sadly it's now sitting in Insurance Limbo so if you still need it tomorrow lmk

[violet plaza]

cant you barter for one from prapor?

[gleaming junco]

Is it me or the earbuds you get from task are shit compared to the boss ones?

[lament steeple]

LFG, PVE, will stream and share screen. Lvl 14 and fairly newish to the game

[subtle timber]

i will lol

[subtle timber]

cant get one any other way

[gleaming junco]

you can get zebralo off scavs

[sand stag]

how do you tell the priest apart again?

[azure canopy]

priest is no vest no hat, hood up

[willow ridge]

when I saw the this last time, he was the only one actaully weaing a hood

[sand stag]

[gleaming junco]

Do you guys prefer the CENS ear piece or the TEP-300 ?

[hidden summit]

i find the teps more crisp but the proflex's a little more base heavy which is nice for picking up on foot pop, iirc stat wise they're essentially exactly the same

[final nimbus]

does 3btg and other strength stims stack?

[brisk stag]

They're all percentage based so if they do, it'd be diminishing retuns

[jovial cobalt]

using the same stim multiple times doesnt stack

but u can stack other stims to get elite strength

[final nimbus]

im 40 strength and shooting for that with 3btg and meldonin

[jovial cobalt]

ye that would put you at elite streng

[hidden summit]

are you just trying to get your kit weight down?

[final nimbus]

terminal

[hidden summit]

ahhh

i see

godspeed

[final nimbus]

ye

[willow ridge]

can shertman spawn with only one guard or is it always two or more?

[jovial cobalt]

always 2 or 3

[willow ridge]

k thats what I thought but I cannot seem to find the others.

[hidden summit]

if you got there late and heard a lot of fighting beforehand, a group of 3 or more pmc's can definitely win the boss fight or atleast drop a svett or two

id still proceed with caution

[willow ridge]

yeah no gunshots or anything until i peaked my head over a rock, dropped one guard and shertman, never found the other guards, was able to get in and loot and get out.

[brisk stag]

Gotta love disconnecting and then finding out you died while trying to reconnect.

[clear wasp]

five minutes to load into a game you didn't even wanna leave! woo!

[twin plover]

Spent nearly all day looking for a single bakeezy cook book and haven’t found one. I keep running labs and streets hitting all safes and containers and shelves. Is there a specific place that has a better chance to spawn them specifically or no?

[austere mist]

Currently I do not have any Skier quests available for some reason. I just started playing PVE and unsure how to get started. Can anyone help?

[marsh wing]

What is everyones go to method to getting Zabralo's?

[clear wasp]

The ones for Sew it Good 2? or whichever number it was

[marsh wing]

sew it good 3

[clear wasp]

I swear you get two as task rewards for things much earlier in the process; EoD gets a task that just gives you one

Good Times Part... One I think?

[marsh wing]

i can get 1 from punisher and 1 from capturing outpost

but i dont have either of those yet

[hidden summit]

spam bear influenced maps and hope to god ?

[static laurel]

Being time gated for the questline for 48 hours with nothing else to do

[hidden summit]

try and get a high surv streak going too, i feel like higher level pmc's have a higher chance of running the zabralo or thor

[hidden summit]

when in doubt labs it out

[static laurel]

for what don't need the money

[distant obsidian]

labs is boring lol

[hidden summit]

just go pop the exfil off rip and have fun ripping heads off raiders

[distant obsidian]

you dont need labs in pve

[static laurel]

yeah I spammed it for the 40 bitcoins for ticket now I'm just stuck waiting with nothing else to farm for

[hidden summit]

i honestly find labs and glukar the only fun combat in pve

[distant obsidian]

but if you have 48 hours of time gates then it is what it is. You could have planned out the tasks a little better but eh

[static laurel]

I mean I farmed for kappa then spammed the story stuff

[distant obsidian]

yeah doing the story before the ticket is the play

[static laurel]

was going for best ending

[distant obsidian]

same

[static laurel]

did you finish it

[distant obsidian]

ya, lost the motivation to do terminal but I did all the chapters before starting the ticket

make the time gates much more manageable

[static laurel]

Oh so you haven't completed it yet?

[distant obsidian]

i got like 10 cards ready but eh

[static laurel]

I'm prob gonna try to get a few crafts before trying

[distant obsidian]

lost all steam

[static laurel]

damn

[distant obsidian]

terminal felt like another check box and I was check boxed out

kappa, LK and saviour unlocked. Tank is emtpy lol. I am just waiting on events now

[late creek]

whats the best labs card

[hidden summit]

being a new player, i saw the black division gear and immediately yelled at my friends for us to hurry the fuck up and grind terminal, upon learning you cant extract with their kits, terminal fell to the absolute bottom of my priority list

[distant obsidian]

the gear is way to op to give out lol

[hidden summit]

green for meds, red and violet for ammo and loot, weapons testing key is also notable for ammo, black is also good for stims and ledx but i find it super hit or miss

[hidden summit]

i just want the black on black tank armor man

[late creek]

ya i did black but i got one morphine and one propital

[hidden summit]

i pretty much only pop black when i can see either a good ammount of stims through the window or a ledx in the corner

[late creek]

alright

[candid patrol]

Terminal and the endings just don't feel worth the grind/reward. Typical Tarkov I guess.

[mild beacon]

the 3 tapes for blue fire in the post office wont spawn, i got one and 2 but three didnt spawn and the car doesnt have the folder
please help

[hidden summit]

also grab a blue card because you can see if theres a red card spawned through the window, not worth to pop for stims but it would suck to see the red card and not be able to grab it

[steel heath]

how do you open the Ms. A transcript safe

I have a black card

but the option for breach is grayed out

[hidden summit]

look at the keypad to the left of the door

[steel heath]

there is no keypad in this room

[clear wasp]

check the painting

[steel heath]

the wiki should mention this

[clear wasp]

no idea how i found it tbh; swore it did

[desert storm]

anyone wanna do terminal?

[dreamy ore]

What's witht he empty maps

[marsh wing]

i hate backend errors. I just want to turn stuff in and turn off my gen

[trim summit]

is everyone getting backend errors rn on pve ?

[marsh wing]

that answers my question

[mental halo]

IM AT ABOUT 20 PEOPLE IVE GOTTEN OUT OF TERMINAL...

[clear wasp]

I'd jump in for a Terminal but the GF is hanging out with friends on the other desk so I gotta yolo-solo; don't want bg noise

[trim summit]

ur getting it too then ?

[jovial cobalt]

same just got backend error

[clear wasp]

and here I was about to launch Terminal

[marsh wing]

i was, im back in now

[clear wasp]

or, well, Shoreline then Terminal

XP earned in Terminal sticks, right? I know gear resets

[marsh wing]

im not doing another raid though. I just wanted to empty my inv and turn my gen off lol

[dreamy ore]

Rogues... never spawn. Raiders rarely spawn. No goons Can't move ahead.

[trim summit]

i cant even get in i just wanna do my btr quests before i do my kerman tasks

[dreamy ore]

Raid after raid trying to get either.

[trim summit]

NVM WE IN

[marsh wing]

i did find my first P90 :)

[next glade]

Trying to do Trouble in the Big City's final step. However none of my flares are counting for this quest. Any advice besides bring in like 10 and hope one actually works?

[sharp obsidian]

[graceful sandal]

same, i barely loaded the game first time today and 1000-Backend error.
They want ppl to not play their game or what

[gaunt flume]

#screenshots message scavlords were smiling upon me today

farming done

[brisk stratus]

anyone else getting backend error

[dreamy mantle]

with that dorms marked key, gah damn

[zenith chasm]

just got it when trying to log on

[brisk stratus]

okay thought i my shit was bugging just this shit game

[zenith chasm]

i cleared cache and tried again and it seemed to work

ye, i was able to log on

[gaunt flume]

literally the first time in all 500 of my hours of finding 314

[next glade]

Bringing in 6 flares and 6 pistol flares🙃 maybe one of these will work for my objective

[zenith chasm]

hey wtf happened to bitcoin price. why it tank?

[next glade]

SO THAT WASNT JUST IN MY HEAD

[dreamy ore]

Bitcoin dropped 40% since monday

[next glade]

I thought we were done with the dynamic bitcoin pricing

[zenith chasm]

its been going down slowly. was at 701k or so earlier this week

and now it dived???

[dreamy ore]

YES. THE REAL WORLD BITCOIN MARKED HAS CUT >40% of its value since October. Big drop this week, twice.

Been that way for years.

[lyric trench]

did they decrease tagillas' spawn rate?? i stg it used to be 9/10 runs hes there, now i cant find this fucker in 5 runs on factory

[dreamy ore]

We can't find anything anywhere. Maps are empty.

[distant obsidian]

50% for all of 1.0

[lyric trench]

Well yea, they decreased loot in marked rooms recently i think

[dreamy ore]

It sucked since 1.0

[lyric trench]

it is so fucking dog shit now, i swear you spend 10m for a marked key and you get fucked in the ass

[dreamy ore]

We got a rooster and a bottle of moonshine.

[distant obsidian]

that was a loot loose loot nerf over amonth agho now

[lyric trench]

ROI is like .1%

[dreamy ore]

You get your ROI by buying one commodity and set a price ceiling, fixing the market.

[next glade]

Theyre basically just expensive for the rarity and quest stuff now

[dreamy ore]

How dare you expect to find money in a loot run.

I just found a wallet stuffed with 160k in roubles.

[distant obsidian]

i have to avoid loot in pve

its so free

[dreamy ore]

We're at the level where I can't stuff more in my account.

And I'm about to vendor everything again in frustration.

[gaunt flume]

i just got .19 fence rep for "scav assistance", is that different from just killing pmcs as a scav?

[lyric trench]

yes

[distant obsidian]

selling stuff any buying more money cases for nothing is lame. I avoid looting now

[lyric trench]

sort of, killing a pmc as scav does nothing UNLESS the pmc kileld a scav already

[dreamy ore]

Looting is too much work

[fervent peak]

Holy hell, bitcoin went down BAD

[violet plaza]

if a PMC kills more scavs before you kill them it counts for more fence rep

[dreamy ore]

BITCOIN IN REAL LIFE DROPPED 40%

companies are going bankrupt overnight. it's delightful.

[violet plaza]

its why i saved the 40 for savior ending instead

[gaunt flume]

brings a sparkle to my eyes

i feel like they should probably remove the dynamic relations of currencies and irl counterparts given the current global economic climate..

[lyric trench]

no

[worthy otter]

OHHH

SO WHEN IT AFFECTS YOUUUU

I see how it is

[gaunt flume]

whats your argument against it tho

[lyric trench]

It's meant to be a realistic game

not happy fun time

[gaunt flume]

realistic game

youre funny

i could name 50 things that are blatantly unrealistic

thats a terrible argument

[lyric trench]

"There arent goons in real life!! So unrealistic!!!"

[gaunt flume]

my point stands

[long stag]

"If i put you in a meat grinder, and the inly things that comes out is your eyeball, youre probably dead"

this was about dynamic currency prices and your best argument is "unrealistic!"

[fervent peak]

Anywhere with construction spawns. Smugglers base, oli, duffle loot bags even. Still can't find it? Go again

[long stag]

Shit.....

Like every other answer to any questions of 'where da pmcs?' 'Where is x item?' it will mostly be 'go again'

WELCOME TO THE BIGGEST SLOT MACHINE!

[lyric trench]

I ran factory 50x to get the DRD armor

is that the dr disrespect armour lol

The diddy armor, yes

bro should not be in the game anymore

[fervent peak]

Want this thing? Want this dead? 'Pull the level again and apply gambler's fallacy' kekw

[long stag]

[lyric trench]

i ran diff places trying to find the goons 5x earlier as well

[long stag]

The brst fallacy in the world

Top 3 at least

[dreamy ore]

We are seeing an average of 5 contacts per raid.

Duo. PVE West servers

[lyric trench]

its the genius of the game: gambling, loss, and winning all at the same time. When you finally get it, its the same as the high from a bet hitting

[long stag]

I think its funny having diddy armor

[lyric trench]

I cant support him cause its just fucked afai remember

Its like having epstein armor bruh

hell no

[long stag]

That would be lit

[royal depot]

Those are just called redactions if I recall correctly

And? Just put him in jail. You can still laugh at armor

#pve-chat message

[long stag]

Ebery static loot got nerfed AF

[lyric trench]

The people who dont know about that situation could start supporting him, not knowing abt that shit.

I swear tho the PVE nerf happened in december, OR, its level based loot

on my fuckin parents and everything i know

[worthy otter]

There is no "level based loot"

[thorny shale]

Already wiped my acc, played a couple hours and got up to the second or third step of falling skies

[worthy otter]

Really not an appropriate discussion for this server

[lyric trench]

I know. But when I pulled 2 red rebels at lvl 2 from 314, and now i get a few gold chains? like really??

[long stag]

[lyric trench]

and when i run with my friend whos low level, then theres good loot?

Odd

[long stag]

For real?

[thorny shale]

Also it felt like the first few raids I played were like real low intensity when it comes to ai, barely saw any scavs or pmcs, dunno if that's intentional to ease newer pve players in or it's just tarkov being tarkov

[lyric trench]

I deadass got a golden egg and a clock from bedroom marked key earlier. Like there goes half a mil?

if not a shitload more

[smoky olive]

do guards just have hitscan bro

[lyric trench]

no

some guns have higher bullet velocity

[long stag]

If you peak twice from the same angle then kinda

[smoky olive]

yea lowk this dude got a shot off as he died which is crazy, no gun audio

[thorny shale]

Died to tagilla in factory on my last raid and thought, yup, 4am time to get off

[lyric trench]

Sometimes they are just insane for no reason. The goons are either the biggest joke or you are just fuckign dead

blink and youre gone

[long stag]

Same with ghost of tsusima on labyrinth, may my top bullets and armor rest in peace

[lyric trench]

I could swear the nerf did not happen at 1.0. cause i used to get crazy shit. now its just actual dogshit

[thorny shale]

Luckily I didn't have anything crazy since I'm just a few hrs in on a fresh wipe, just an MDR with pretty standard ammo and T4 armour

[lyric trench]

key to killing shadow: use ballistics simulator

[hidden summit]

yeah loot nerf came post 1.0 for sure, i started playing like 2 or 3 weeks before it happened and marked room, labs, world loot was all super good and one morning it was just absolute dogshit

[lyric trench]

figure out what bullets will pen in 2 bullets or less. He has tier 6 armor all around his head

It's basically PPBS or bust

[hidden summit]

dorms 314 went from multiple cards per key to one to three random items at best

[lyric trench]

3 dogshit worthless items^

[hidden summit]

i havent even gotten a docs case in my last 3 dorms keys

[lyric trench]

maybe a keycard if you suck nikita

[marsh wing]

i might farm weapon boxes on GZ tomorrow while i finish out my extracts. Need me those zabralo's so i can get the Lav recipes

[long stag]

Yea. But those ap 20 at AK fire rate hurt

[lyric trench]

I remember i pulled 1 red, 1 black, and a purple in 314. I couldnt even imagine that BS now

[lyric trench]

Let me show you a lil something

[thorny shale]

Take lapua, every shot ricochets, get your lungs stapled to the wall, blame Nikita, rinse and repeat

[lyric trench]

I cant paste the image here for some reason, but AP-20 pens his helmet in SEVEN bullets

[hidden summit]

i ran it for the first few times yesterday and had pretty good sucess with an mp7 and ap sx

[lyric trench]

or, you get a 95% kill chance at 7 bullets

that is very bad

[hidden summit]

felt like a pretty good ttk

[lyric trench]

PPBS, on the other hand, pens reliably in 2, with a chance to kill at 85%

it's a no brainer, 50+ pen ammo on labrynth or bust

[lyric trench]

(and a 100% chance to kill at 3 bullets)

[marsh wing]

throw enough grenades works too

[lyric trench]

shadow, normal tagilla can be killed with potatoes and bricks

[cosmic patrol]

even an USP works against Tagilla

Shagilla, the worst ive done to him ammo wise is Hydrashok

[lyric trench]

"decent ammo" is not very specific

what pen is decent to you

or what ammo

[distant obsidian]

over 40 is good ammo

anything below is just mixed

[lyric trench]

i mean, if im bout to fight the boss with the best armor out of all of them (then killa rushing you), im using my best ammo

what, am i gonna bring PPBS to labs and waste it ?

its not like im shooting demigods anywhere else

[distant obsidian]

^

[lyric trench]

i've went with BP, its aight, but the ricochet chance is not worth it when hes got semi aimbot

i mean i have a shitload of goated ammo atp

60+ pen, i should say

[distant obsidian]

ive used hybrid and m80a1 to perfectly fien success. Its all about knowing your ammo and playing around it

[lyric trench]

to that same effect, a newbie solo prob shouldnt be risking his stuff with lower tier ammo

if you need to go, you need to go there, but until youre used to the traps/ layout, no need to die because you panicked, missed, and got bumfucked by tagilla

yfm?

I certifiably panic once i am 5 rounds into spraying shadow

[gaunt flume]

folks where is tartowers sales office? its the code for gz but idk where it is

[long stag]

I meant his

[lyric trench]

7 bullets to kill is not acceptable to me

i may as well use the blicky

😂

[long stag]

His full auto no recoil ap 20 to my fucking balls do hurt

[lyric trench]

thats the other thing, hit non-helmet and TTK may be faster

given you dont shoot his (possibly) tier 6 front plate

but when i am locked in like that i go for HS only

[long stag]

How doea that make sense?

[lyric trench]

leg meta

[hollow prawn]

legs, balls

[lyric trench]

you can kill tagilla with the shittiest ammo in the game if you hit his arms/ legs

[distant obsidian]

i never leg metaed ever

seemed pointless when I can click a head

[lyric trench]

exactly. my point was, you can be lvl 1 and buy the worst ammo in the game and still kill him with leg shots

I do not shoot for legs cause i miss

so i would never do that

[lyric trench]

damage gets transferred to other limbs once one is blacked out

people do leg meta in PVP all the time to save $

there is no armor for your legs

[dreamy ore]

I regularly kill tagill and killa with a vector .45 and 3 2x round bursts to the faceplate.

.45 AP

[lyric trench]

buy 7n40, its 1000 per bullet, buy something with less pen, its like 200 max

[clear wasp]

on ammo just build your magazine presets, make all your ammo last way longer

[dreamy ore]

MCX with .300 CBJ is also very effective, or AP even better.

[lyric trench]

again, panic. i get jumpy and start missing after the 6th shot or so, cause im not great (started when 1.0 came out)

and i never use bursts cause i dont really have that down yet

i mean i got to level 53 now, i am further along then my friends with 4k+ hours (got lightkeeper, kappa)

i have some ball knowledge but technically, shoulder peeking and whatnot, i am not the best

[dreamy ore]

I think I'm close to Kappa. Not tracking it.

[lyric trench]

after shoulder peeking tagilla and getting insta fuckin one tapped i do not want to repeat it

[clear wasp]

does acid green work on BD? if so it might be the funniest thing imaginable

[lyric trench]

bd?

[clear wasp]

Black Division

[long stag]

Faster than him you?

[lyric trench]

if they count as scavs, probably

[dreamy ore]

oh yeah

[long stag]

Ill keep in mind

[lyric trench]

if they arent scavs, no. check their faction on the wiki

talking about factions, i think its bullshit that the goons arent counted as PMCs

i mean yeah, they broke off and whatnot, but like.. they got better-than pmc aim for a reason

they are not scavs like kaban

[long stag]

Do you know any keys that survived loot nerf besides marked and black? For example rb pkpts feels good despite them

[lyric trench]

pkpts is the BIGGEST LOAD OF HORSESHIT ever

15+ runs, 2 fucking COFDMs

[long stag]

Why? Its relatively cheap and has virtexes and vpxes

From what ive gathered

[lyric trench]

I just am mad because of my personal experience, it is a good room

tbh

[lunar ice]

rb-vo

[lyric trench]

but like when you need 2 more of xyz and you keep getting all the wrong items it is INFURIATING

[long stag]

Happens ig. Same story with finding marked keys

[long stag]

Ah yeeeeeaaaaaa......

[lyric trench]

i havent found a marked key in so long

i think i found 314 in the gdesk key area around dec 1st. last time i pulled anything good

exxcept for pkpm from the cultist, which is the most dogshit marked room in the world. ONE UZI? THATS IT??

[long stag]

Lol

[lyric trench]

nah fuck that marked room on god

its so bad its unbelievable

[barren kiln]

why is trimadol so pricy rn? it normally that high? cause if so i missed out an ALOT of roubles

[hollow prawn]

I got lucky spend 3 mil on one open and got a black lol

[lyric trench]

every run its another poop on my plate

[long stag]

Still. Gambling is fun

[lyric trench]

just do rb bk or vo. so much better

[lunar ice]

bk is awful to me

[lyric trench]

a pmc had a key case from VO one time, thats the only bad part of VO, small room = loot gets stolen thru the wall from AI

[lunar ice]

vo is god teir to me

[lyric trench]

ive gotten a fair amount of cases from bk

NOTHING from pkpm. maybe one keychain

dog ass fucking room do not buy it

it should be 200k for a full pkpm in my eyes

[lunar ice]

not even

ill give u my belly lint for that key

wont go any higher

[lyric trench]

😂

at least some of the other ones seem to have a chance of blessing oyu

[barren kiln]

pkpm goin for the same as a 314 rn, maybe i should put up one

[lyric trench]

pkpm? its like signing yourself up to get fucked in the ass then shot in the head

[lunar ice]

got a redel red key tool and a asea out VO last night

usually when i walk into VO there is 3 m60s on the ground

[lyric trench]

yea because that one has SOMETHING going for it

thats where i got my first key case

and ammo box

its decent

[lunar ice]

i just buy full vo keys take everything out and sell it

[lyric trench]

best loot run is still labs tho

[lunar ice]

then i take the money and buy aniother one

yellow is literally best room in the game

change my mind

[lyric trench]

black office, red + violet, hit cat and managers office, youve made more than any marked room

[lunar ice]

yellow the other day had a ledx and gpu in it

[lyric trench]

Yes, always bring the other ones if you got em

blue is usually pretty ass tho

[lunar ice]

blue is only good for selling

[lyric trench]

heres a 30k stim!

[lunar ice]

found my first one ever like 30 mins ago

[lyric trench]

oh and that terragroup key inside red is the worst

mfs think its worth like 6 mil

[lunar ice]

its good if u have patience\

[lyric trench]

it has a single reshala figurine when i go. no ty

[lunar ice]

cause bitcoin can spawn in it but u have to use a red card

[lyric trench]

residence unit is better, more profitable, and 80k

ez bitcoins there

[hidden summit]

rez unit is also a guaranteed spawn in raid

[lyric trench]

just gotta check under the right bed, (i am too lazy to learn the spots)

its 80k

[lunar ice]

spawnns on desk in the cup in the power area and in the back of the power area

[hidden summit]

nah it spawns in a few spots in the surrounding area. but the card does always spawn in raid so no point in buying em, and that room has like 4 or 5 btc spawns

[lyric trench]

its like when my friend told me to open PCs to get GPUs. sounds fun, run labs 50x to get 20 gpus, or just buy them with all the loot from the colored rooms...

[lunar ice]

i hope bitcoin stops tanking

[hidden summit]

spawns on the binder of the weapons room in the hallways, in the cup, 2 spawns in the room on the left, on the little wall panel behind the toolbox spawn and behind the whiteboard all the way in the back right corner of the far room

[hollow prawn]

2 spawns in the door room

Chair and under metal frame thing

[lunar ice]

down almost 100k from the other day

[hidden summit]

right right, i forgot about that

cant it spawn under the scientists hand aswell?

[lyric trench]

fuck farming for btc anyways. ive been saving them for the good ending

[hollow prawn]

Not that I have seen bruh

How do I know how close I am to Kappa? I am level 43 and I heard last quest for it is 45

[hidden summit]

either way, rez unit card is a guaranteed spawn, and it having multiple bitcoin spawns imo makes it one of the best rooms in labs

[lunar ice]

i already gave him my 40 coins so i need the bitcoins to go up now so i can profit

[valid apex]

did any 1 eles dc

[lyric trench]

its sort of like ram, it went way up in price. sell it on the market for like 180k now

and its in 1/5 pcs if you search em

[night willow]

[hidden summit]

dude, so many sticks of ram from labs

[night willow]

is the duckov code already gone?

[hidden summit]

i think im averaging 3 or 4 per raid

[lyric trench]

highkey. fuck that bot for the codes. check out tarkov.tips on instagram for the codes, hes goated and quick

[jovial cobalt]

yea it ended

[night willow]

damn

[lyric trench]

they dont even have the newest code there

[jovial cobalt]

which one

[night willow]

theres another new one?

[lyric trench]

WILDHUNT

[jovial cobalt]

that ended

[lyric trench]

ahh shiet

[night willow]

that's the duckov code

[lyric trench]

didnt realize my b

[lyric trench]

but ong if you use insta regularly, this is the best way to get codes quick.

i got every single one since 1.0 came out bc of this guy

[orchid crest]

test drive pt 4 goated quest

[lyric trench]

u can be at class, go on insta, see the code, and use it on the website, never going on tarkov itself

[warped quarry]

aanyone elses game not transfering loot ands just blinking?

[lunar ice]

bruh just opened vo yellow, red card, ammo case, 2 docs case and a key tool

[lyric trench]

its stupid how some marked are so much better than others

like not even fuckin close in terms of loot value

[valid apex]

is the game down

[distant obsidian]

Why would the game be down

[lyric trench]

bc tarkov

bc nikita

[hidden summit]

dont tease me

[valid apex]

idk i just dc and died and buddy dc at the same time

just wondering

[lunar ice]

time to go open bk

[warped quarry]

my shit wont transfer loot

[hidden summit]

DONT TEASE ME

[hollow prawn]

Vo is better than dorms tbh

At least for me

[valid apex]

does any 1 know what the event is going to have

[hollow prawn]

But I also have to fight gluhar every time

[lyric perch]

can you buy Terminal access cards from Prapor still?

[hidden summit]

all three reserve are better than dorms right now

fucking reshalas stash is better than dorms right now

[lunar ice]

my stupid lmg lvl dont wanna go up faster

[hollow prawn]

Tbh I get more btc out stash than D Marked

[hidden summit]

yeah dorms is easily the worst marked room in the game right now

[hollow prawn]

At 22/40 atm

[hidden summit]

idk about streets marked because fuck streets

but dorms is absolute garbage

[gentle scaffold]

dorm 314 still buns?

[hidden summit]

i opened it today to not a single item

not even a skull ring

[hollow prawn]

I still havent done the rusted bloody key yet. I cant get it to spawn

[lunar ice]

i got soo many bitcoin from drops cause they were just handing out tetriz

[lyric perch]

Anyone know why i cant buy a Terminal access card from Prapor? Not listed

[dreamy ore]

jeez. and yet, no updates, no news, just "hey a new game"

[lunar ice]

u make em

[hollow prawn]

Scared they already making new game...

[dreamy ore]

We will play it in 10 years.

If Russia doesn't nuke the world.

[lunar ice]

bruh u forgot TRANSPARENT MAGAZINES

[dreamy ore]

They have to have something to rais emoney with...

[lunar ice]

biggest update in gaming

[lyric perch]

Juat watched a vid that said you can buy them also from Prapor for 5 mil. Is that not right?

[distant obsidian]

there is no new game

[hollow prawn]

I think if you are on a certain ending Rooster

Im not sure though

[distant obsidian]

and you act like we dont wait a month between updates lol

like this is nothing new

[shy thorn]

WHERE TF DO U FIND BAKEZY BOOK

[lyric perch]

ah ok..thanks

[hidden summit]

loose loot spawns, valuable spawns

safes mostly

[lunar ice]

damn bk was bare this time

[frigid pond]

yo what do you guys do for money runs? been hitting labs but... it definitely does not hit the same

[hidden summit]

whats your labs route? because ive been making crazy money off it

[shy thorn]

Interchange tagila's hideout, the scav camp extension

[frigid pond]

keycard rooms except for black, double black, and red

[hidden summit]

gotta be hitting offices, barracks across from server, server room, red, yellow, violet, rez unit, pretty much where im getting all my money from

tons of gpus, ram, bitcoins, figurines.

[frigid pond]

no red keycard currently, what barracks across from server?

[hidden summit]

down by the lobby area under red and violet

theres the barracks room with a safe

ive gotten tons of bitcoins and valuables from it

biggest thing imo is full looting every pc on labs

leaving with a handfull of ram and multiple gpus per raid fairly consistently

office is also a pretty good safe

[dreamy ore]

Another completely empty Shoreline

3 scavs, 3 scavs at sanitorium

[hidden summit]

and thats all without hitting black or double black which are total scams right now

[golden tusk]

scar worth running or nah? i've never actually tried it out despite being one of the only fkn things out of marked rooms rn

[dreamy ore]

Two days now the raids have been empty when we duo. When I solo, 25+ kills.

[hidden summit]

7.62 or 5.56?

[golden tusk]

7.62!

[dreamy ore]

All guns are personal preference. I never liked the 1.0 X17, but I loved it in beta.

I hated the hk416. Now I run the 10.5 and love it.

[hidden summit]

yeah the x17 can be pretty good, but yeah like arclight is saying guns really are a personal preference outside of like super minmaxed metaslave builds

[dreamy ore]

I mainly run anything + the DVL-10

[hidden summit]

really comes down to your ammo more than anything

[dreamy ore]

Mp7, MP9, shotgun. Doesn't matter. I use smaller weapons with high ergo for sub 90m and anything over, I'm using the DVL

[spark wave]

556 scar sounds great but is otherwise mid compared to available options in caliber

[golden tusk]

i must get better with the DVL it sounds so nice

[hidden summit]

my go to right now is the nl545 GP with short barrel

[dreamy ore]

Once you're late game, M4 is just apocalyptic.

I love the NL545 unsuppressed with an ACOG.

[golden tusk]

thats the custom right?

[dreamy ore]

I also love the SAG 545 carbine.

[hidden summit]

850rpm, 60 ish ergo and just never barrel stuffing on anything just works for me

velocity is meh but workable

[spark wave]

nl545 actually makes the caliber fun to use outside of rpk memes

[dreamy ore]

yes

10.5 inch barrel is where it's at for me.

82.7 ergo loaded

[hidden summit]

also helps that bt is more than alright ammo and easy to find, but also just like run a couple raids on interchange and youl have tons of bp and bs

[golden tusk]

i've been loving the NL545

[spark wave]

its so much nicer to use vs a klink or a 74n

[dreamy ore]

Since hitting Elite Strength, the RPDN is my primary Soviet caliber weapon.

[spark wave]

even with comparable recoil etc the nln just feels nicer

[dreamy ore]

100rd drum and it double-triple taps like a light AK

[spark wave]

whats ur kit weigh with like 2 spare drums arc

[dreamy ore]

Then I land in the MP7 with AP and FMJ, 855A1 in a shorty HK416 or a long barrel M4.

[hidden summit]

im a bit of a poser, i 100% build out my guns to be cool and not just slave at stats with attachment's that i personally find look ridiculous, but overall i think my shorty nl is like 57 vert with 50 or 60 ish ergo

[spark wave]

theres no real point to minmaxing pve imo just go with what u like

[hidden summit]

yessir

[dreamy ore]

My build is 4.25kg loaded, 82.7 ergo, 62 vert, 181 hor, 802 ms 2.01MOA

[dreamy ore]

That's not true or wise in my experience.

[spark wave]

damn thats pretty light for an lmg

[dreamy ore]

RPDN is 8.53kg

28.4 ergo, 57 vert, 267 hor

2.01moa

[spark wave]

paying giga premium for like 2 extra recoil isnt worth is what i was getting at

[distant obsidian]

why not

[spark wave]

and if u want to drip out instead of looking like you picked up a gun from borderlands for "meta" its a valid playstyle

[distant obsidian]

its free in pve and always comes back

its literally the opposite in pve. No reason NOT to

[hidden summit]

really depends on the content. labrynth? sure im going with the most laserbeam kit i can, but just running around on reserve or labs clicking heads +- 10 points of recoil aint a make or break

[spark wave]

basically above

if i want to do something where the extra stats might actually be useful sure

but for casual questing/meme runs with friends a 400k attachment for -2 recoil is whatever

[distant obsidian]

again, when its permanent. No reason not to

[pseudo kayak]

holy hell does 8.5mm buck destroy tagilla lol

[distant obsidian]

anything kills him

hes a just free

[pseudo kayak]

completed the dumb jaeger quest in the same run too

[distant obsidian]

most bosses are

[pseudo kayak]

yeah but when i first started the game, tagilla haunted me and i was scared of factory

[spark wave]

im not saying "dont do it" mind you tyreall like if ppl want to run min max kits go ahead ill take the free roubles

[dreamy ore]

it pretty much destroys anyone

[pseudo kayak]

im taking my life back and ive been hunting tagilla for about 1 week in a row now

[stone harbor]

well if you run local that is. If you play on BSG server with friends then it 's gonna be 50 50 return

[spark wave]

i just personally want a gun that looks nice

[distant obsidian]

fair, I am tired and probably not getting the full context of what your typing

[pseudo kayak]

i try to kill him at least 8-10 times per day for no reason in particular

[distant obsidian]

no

[stone harbor]

looks nice and function well yep

[cosmic patrol]

@spiral pecan morning sir

[hollow prawn]

Oh look, Its time for my daily Head, jaw'd streak lmao

[distant obsidian]

you just get your freinds to stash your shit

or bring it out

[cosmic patrol]

what if u dont have friends

[distant obsidian]

i happen to like the look of meta parts the best anyways. Or almost full meta parts so

all my guns are meta or near meta because thats what looks good to me

[stone harbor]

both of us died, so I lost my gun but got my ADO sight back, my friend lost M60 but got the scope and a mag back lmao

[distant obsidian]

then yopu dont have to worry about your stuff going awauy

[distant obsidian]

then you just didnt insure it. When all players are dead the raid is over

[stone harbor]

you will play locally, everything will return

[jaunty stream]

M60

[spark wave]

didnt they add a chance for shit to go missing regardless with online raids

[distant obsidian]

if you died before you duo could loot you, then you can be looted by the ai

[jaunty stream]

[distant obsidian]

no

[jaunty stream]

Nope

[hidden summit]

i run around in gac 3sss plates in a jpc with non meta clone guns, if your getting head eyes or throat shotted a lot id be inclined to say youre overpeeking

[spark wave]

the more you know haha, ty

[stone harbor]

jesus man I played this game for so long now, insurance is the first thing I do. I will send you a screen shot later if I got into that situation again, a photo speaks a thousand words :))))))

[distant obsidian]

and none of thoswe words could mean a thing

[jaunty stream]

The second you extract or die, servers shuts down

[stone harbor]

but tbf, that time was like the 4th time in my 400 raids to lost something

[stone harbor]

since you will just deny them yeah

[distant obsidian]

you can take a photo of a different raid, different insurance ect. Its not proof if it cant be linked

[spark wave]

tagila mask and korund vest saves me 95% of the time in pve unless i did something really dumb

[distant obsidian]

of course I am going to deny it. I can post a photo of anything and make a claim

[hidden summit]

ive had quite a few weapons (parts rather) be insured partially with therapist and partially with prapor, get my gun back missing a stock, scope ect just to get them back a day later

[distant obsidian]

but that still doesnt support my claim

[stone harbor]

oh yeah I forgot, the usual Tyreall again, nevermind this whole thing, a waste of time

[cosmic patrol]

But what if I dont like insurance

[jaunty stream]

Guys, I died in labs and got my stuff back

[distant obsidian]

indeed it is a waste of time. I know how this game works and I dont believe a photo on teh internet

[stone harbor]

what do you mean you dont like insurance

[stone harbor]

yeah sure that's for every players

[stone harbor]

good one

[spark wave]

i wonder if gear insurance could be counted as gambling mechanics

[jaunty stream]

[distant obsidian]

I also dont believe your a credible person so I cant just take your word for it and believe your photo

[stone harbor]

[fleet loom]

rb-vo is trolling bro

hit me with the 7 gun spawn

[distant obsidian]

now if someone like rez or renolk did the same thing, I would consider a conversation because I believe they are credible people

[twilit heath]

Bruh I finally killed killa and I made my way out to the railroad extract and found out you get emercon extract if you spawn at power station

[fleet loom]

oooo, and a vog-25 dont forget that

[spark wave]

🙁

[hidden summit]

f

[distant obsidian]

done that

its the worst on woods

[stone harbor]

nah just forget it, it's the internet, i wont get a thing even if I prove a point. anyway, my group of 5 usually got our stuff back but once in a while the stuff will get lost, it happened when some of us died and did not extract fast enough so the scav took the things from the corpse

[distant obsidian]

pop a stim and RUN FOREST RUN

[spark wave]

11sr is a livesaver bulba

[hidden summit]

i just defualt 11sr for my interchange route

[distant obsidian]

👍

[twilit heath]

I made it to the street transit with 5 seconds to spare but I got a full bag lmao

[distant obsidian]

so it literally worked the way its supposed to

[spark wave]

i believe

[distant obsidian]

W

[twilit heath]

I'm not lvl 30 yet 😭😭 I miss 11sr

[stone harbor]

oh so now you are giving a thumb-up

my bad for not giving the whole context lel

[distant obsidian]

because what you just said is exactly how the game works

[stone harbor]

yeah I never said anything that goes against the norms right

[hidden summit]

sj6 + trimadol is pretty good ad saving you from extract mistakes

i always carry two sets on me

[distant obsidian]

like I said, when you die in agroup. One person has to carry out your kit or take it off your body and stash it

[hidden summit]

one because im reckless and one to make sure im covered for any mistakes

[spark wave]

this chat is fantastic entertainment for my afternoon smoko ty ppl

[stone harbor]

yep, it is like a rollercoster, bring my mood up and down fast when needed

[distant obsidian]

but it is bedtime now.

[spark wave]

5pm here sir

[distant obsidian]

10pm

[stone harbor]

yeah like I said, my friends died and then I died, we lost the gun and some stuff.

[distant obsidian]

got looted or didnt insure. There are no insurance bugs atm.

[stone harbor]

never said anything abt bugs, game is plagued with bugs but not the insurance

[spark wave]

i get what i insure back if me and old mate both die within like 30s of eachother

[stone harbor]

jumped the gun too fast bruh slow down

[distant obsidian]

yeah, its just happenstance if an ai is close and loots you before the raid ends

hence why its important for you duo to stash your gear. Or if your rich dont care at all

[spark wave]

if i see my lvl6 plate and mask come back im happy

[distant obsidian]

everything is replaceable.

i dont evne care about those cause the best lvl6 plate is a cheap barter atm

[stone harbor]

yeah Idc abt my stuff but my friends can become real asshole when they died and lost their shit

[distant obsidian]

yeah fuck those people

[stone harbor]

it's just a game, why you have to be mad :)))))))))

[distant obsidian]

I hate playing with peol;le who care about gear that much

[spark wave]

gear fear in pve is funny

[stone harbor]

I'm on standard, they are on PTE

[spark wave]

i sorta understand a little in pvp

[distant obsidian]

pvp yeah

[stone harbor]

I'm the only one who got a disadvantage and they dare to complain when they lost gears? damn shame

[spark wave]

but like you said earlier ty its basically 100% safe anyway

[distant obsidian]

pve, gtfo with that gear fear/"MUH KIT" mentallity

mhm

[stone harbor]

that feeling when I'm on 47kg, they did dumb shiet, they died, and asshol-ing me to get their stuff back

[spark wave]

if a gun survives long enough/i use it for a long task i occasionally retire them

[stone harbor]

bitch I'm not superman

[spark wave]

but thats all i "care" about losing in pve

[distant obsidian]

yeah fuck that. Its your choice if you want to save their kit or not.

ah fuck it, your chill malori. Your in the credible book.

[stone harbor]

Yeah I retire my 3rd As Val Mod 4 yesterday, run it down till 75%

[distant obsidian]

damn

[stone harbor]

lmao thanks dude

[distant obsidian]

I dont go past 90 anymore lol

[jaunty stream]

I had my MXLR malf at 92

not fun

[spark wave]

"you did good little guy, you dont go to mechanic"

[distant obsidian]

hell I replace at 94

guns are cheap

[hidden summit]

yep

[stone harbor]

yeah man, that 75% run was my bad, forgot to replace the core, forgot to even repair, go in Tagilla, gun jammed 4 times, I almost died jesus

[distant obsidian]

yikes

[hidden summit]

if its gonna drop below 85 in raid because its at low 90s its being replaced before i go in

[stone harbor]

that whole game my adrenaline was rocket high lmaooo locked the fuck in XD

[hidden summit]

i aint having my shit malfunction mid fight with the goons when its 100% preventable by spending rubles

[distant obsidian]

ok I am off. you kids have fun lol

[hidden summit]

later skater

[stone harbor]

sleep tight

[spark wave]

night

[stone harbor]

yeah my gun was like 83% before raid, As Val can burn dura down pretty fking quick XD

burned 3 mags and yep, down to 78, that's when the jamming festival started hitting me

[hidden summit]

i just dont see the point of running the as val, like most biblically malfunctioning gun in the game

[spark wave]

asval durability post nerf is silly

[hidden summit]

no thanks

[spark wave]

put like 3 mags thru it and it jams

[stone harbor]

why not? the As Val Mod 4 is a beauty

I used it all the time during my deployment

subsonic is just chef's kiss

[hidden summit]

listen, i like my 20inch mustket of a c7.

[crystal umbra]

so is the BTC coin price gonna randomly go up and down like irl? Could swear it was like 704k to sell to therapist and today it's like 500k?

[hidden summit]

yes

[crystal umbra]

damn

[stone harbor]

wait its a thing?

[crystal umbra]

seems to be. Like I said, it was selling for 700 in the past few days and now fence gives out only 500 lol

[stone harbor]

c7? NATO gun?

[crystal umbra]

I mean therapist

not fence, derp

[hidden summit]

idk if its like a confirmed mechanic from bsg, but the general consensus is yes

[marble bronze]

in game bitcoin price is link to IRL bitcoin price

[hidden summit]

right arm of cannuckistan

[marble bronze]

100% a confirmed intentional link.

[stone harbor]

AK you mean?

[crystal umbra]

ah well. I am selling them regardless, because I already have my 40 btc stashed away for quest and I need more for money now

[hidden summit]

nah we use an ar15 pattern rifle here in canada

c7 and c8

[young frost]

i thought they stopped that years ago

[stone harbor]

ahhh I just searched the cannuckistan meaning, it is a slang for canada lmaoo

[hidden summit]

oh yeah yeah

[prime marlin]

can you still put your gamma in the cult circle for the spooky version?

[hidden summit]

im too scared to try since im not EOD

[young frost]

also where are they pegging the conversion to rubles ? cus its my understanding that usd/ruble can be volatile

[stone harbor]

my unit never got the chance to field the AR-15 platform in the field, heard it was longer and best ergo than our As Val?

[quick stag]

||im at a predicament, im talking to mr kerman and need to choose to help him or not.. i want to help him and go for savior ending but if i fail i go back to survivor ending which requires 500 mill which i dont want to farm 😛 so now do i continue or do i choose another path now to avoid possibility of failing and farming 500 mill ruples ARgghh!||

[stone harbor]

also, the rumor of the AR-15 often froze in our winter is a worrysome thing

[stone harbor]

savior is best iiwy

[young frost]

man id do anything to be able to buy a val at walmart

[stone harbor]

if it is your 1st time, then yes it will work

[young frost]

theyre so cool n ive wanted one since like bad company 2

[stone harbor]

yep, the As Val standard is abit clunky, had to mod it a bit. but the As Val mod 4 my man the chasis is a game changer

the only thing you have to worry about is not using the full auto

[quick stag]

yeah but i have to do all stories and if i fail to get something i get converted to survivor.. OR i could choose the fallen path and im like 2 quests from done 😛

[young frost]

i simply cant be bothered to use that jamomatic to hit longshots

idk y bsg treats russian guns so poorly ):

[fleet loom]

rb-bk clutchin up with a pfilter and black card

[stone harbor]

depends on you, get the best ending and then touch grass for 2~3 months or go for the shiet ending and play the game right again :v

[fleet loom]

and a sneaky blank rfid

[stone harbor]

they had a bad term with russian guns or something

[hidden summit]

sent you a friend request on discord to pm

[young frost]

huh ?

[stone harbor]

to me, russian guns are the best in durability, user friendly, and very easy for maintenaince/modding

[hidden summit]

i think theres a huge stigma between the whole ar vs ak debate, theres differences for sure, some greater some worse

but an assaulters rifle is an assaulters rifle

for the most part

[stone harbor]

I mean the AN-94 and the AK-12, I love the AK-12 but I waited for the AN-94 for so long, they hated Russian guns or something recently

[young frost]

easy to maintain annoying af to mod

[dreamy ore]

AK's are AK's - we don't need 30 of them.

[stone harbor]

yeah for the eastern hemisphere, AK platform is too familiar, everyone touched the AK at least once. for the AR platform, it is expensive due to import and lack of good modding at fair price so not many ppl can understand the diff between the 2

[stone harbor]

this I agree, AN-94 is not AK XD

trust me hehehe

[young frost]

what we rly need is aek971

[stone harbor]

for older model yep, for As Val and AK-12 it is easyyyy

[dreamy ore]

Yes, it literally is. But Nikonov vs Kalishnakov

[hidden summit]

its funny because the exact same thing happens on this side of the pond, modding out an ak becomes super expensive because getting the russian furniture is difficult

[stone harbor]

[dreamy ore]

And once again, it's a unicorn of "Russian Engineering"

[strong obsidian]

Praying for cadpat clothing and a C79 optic + the green polymer furniture of the c7

[stone harbor]

oh no that shiet is not worth it man

it's bad irl

[hidden summit]

annnnnnnd 72 vert recoil and 15 ergo

[strong obsidian]

Always worth it for the swag

[dreamy ore]

I am SHOCKED there aren't more WW2 weapons. I mean.. .30 cal Johnson carbine.

[hidden summit]

agreed

[dreamy ore]

SO MANY lend leased.

[stone harbor]

true, you know BSG, doing lots for stuff that aint important XD

[stone harbor]

so nice, here we are content with the AK-12 and As Val Mod 4 platform. but a newer gun wont be a bad thing

[dreamy ore]

AK-12 is not great. VAL.. unicorn ammo.

[stone harbor]

it's just they are focusing in drones and jets too much

[dreamy ore]

Literally look at Russian weapon systems vs western systems. Tell me, which one has access to CAD?

[strong obsidian]

Did they ruin the double tap timeout?

[dreamy ore]

I can't double tap.

[strong obsidian]

Im trying to emergency reload and its delayed by like a second rather than 300ms

[stone harbor]

the logistics said that AK-12 is versatile in its accessories, easier to carry around and give them less headache during transportation lmao

[dreamy ore]

So slow.

[gleaming pilot]

We need a Thompson in Tarkov. That would just be sick.

[dreamy ore]

M3A1 even more likely

[stone harbor]

damn that Mafia gun with 60 rounds mag? sickkkk

[dreamy ore]

Swedish K

Swedish, Finnish guns.

We have a couple of Swiss guns.

Some Belgian.

[strong obsidian]

thompson with its drum mag would be meta in comparison to the 30 round mags of the vector

[crystal umbra]

didn't they confirm the czech BREN guns? those would be sick

[strong obsidian]

Or maybe not with the some odd 500 rpm firerate

[lunar ice]

They should add the DP-28

[stone harbor]

based

[tulip mesa]

what the fk??? I'm trying to do Labyrinth, and got toxic puddle, went to pick up the torch, it disappears -- not inventory, nowhere. Can't do anything, can't leave?

[stone harbor]

yeah it's the planned weapon that will be coming soon

but when is a diff question to answer

[gleaming pilot]

Yeah that would be sick. But i was thinking Thompson since lend lease gave them a lot and there are still Thompsons stockpiled from ww2 era. The grease gun wasn't a lend lease gun for the Soviets (as far as I remember).

[strong obsidian]

See if you can shift + left click items in your inventory

[stone harbor]

you go solo?

[strong obsidian]

You might have the sorting table bug

[tulip mesa]

I don't use sorting table, what do you mean?

[fleet loom]

subs slap in the mp7

lil leg destroyers

[strong obsidian]

Theres a bug where sometimes you can shift + left click items in raid, and instead of going to the sorting table like they would in the hideout they get instantly destroyed from the raid

[tulip mesa]

No, I tried picking it up from the ground, and it went nowhere.

Can I jump over puddle? This is complete bullshit

[stone harbor]

nope

[tulip mesa]

I'm not.

[strong obsidian]

I think it puts you in a bsg server when you transit to labryinth

[stone harbor]

damn shame, check your inven again carefully, it should be there

[tulip mesa]

It is not, and can't interact with the door.

[stone harbor]

or find another torch?

[stone harbor]

maybe your friend took it?

[strong obsidian]

Are you able to interact with items in your inventory normally

Or are u busy hands bugged

[tulip mesa]

No, it just completely disappeared, never went to my inv

[strong obsidian]

Woof, id alt f4 and reconnect to the server just to see if it appears on reconnect, if not you're shit outta luck

[stone harbor]

yep, I recommend doing that, it will recheck your current inventory again

if it is there in your inven, it will appear

[twilit heath]

why does streets turn into a warzone when your bag is full

[tulip mesa]

No, it just never went to inventory. Have to die here in the trap room for no good reason. How does this even happen?

[earnest cliff]

anyone on NA PVE able to list an AK 7.62x39 ProMag AK-A-16 73-round drum mag for me, dont have max peacekeeper and theres none on the flea. Trying to do gunsmith pt 23, thanks

[marble bronze]

Can't be listed on Flea

[earnest cliff]

ah okay, i see theres a barter trade, had the filter turned off, ty anyways lol

[tulip mesa]

It... respawned in one of the other static locations, with ~10min left? Okay

[fleet loom]

climbin down the cliff with a whole tank battery in my backpack

i killed the guards with the gl by dome that was fun

[short fern]

nice

[clear wasp]

is this how I find out IRL BTC crashed or is Tarkov's BTC price no longer linked to the value of IRL crypto?

[orchid crest]

it dropped like $2000

[crystal umbra]

Whats the lowest it has ever dropped in the past? Anyone knows?

[jaunty stream]

Somelike like 150k

[mystic marsh]

It's no longer linked I am pretty sure

[jaunty stream]

Pretty sure it is

[mystic marsh]

Well the weather isn't linked anymore

[jaunty stream]

BTC Dropped to 600k or something

Yep 618k

[clear wasp]

Therapist said 530k to me earlier

Insane, is this how I learn we're hitting Capital-R Recession?

[warped imp]

So I might be fucked, I've been looking for the Goon Squad but for the past 40 raids, they haven't spawned....What am I missing?

[mystic marsh]

They find you. Dw

[vale atlas]

the goon squad

[mystic marsh]

??codes

[quasi apex]

Redeem your goodies → https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/promo/activate (Or launcher → your name → activate code)
SBEUKOMAR | SCAVYBOI | GOONSQUAD | LIGHTSOUT | PAY2WIN | ELVISVISTA | ju20fu2620idfh88

[mystic marsh]

GOONSQUAD

I wanna hold your hand

Irl

[warped imp]

lol, So I've heard, but are they just rare in PvE?

[vale atlas]

See, learning maps isn't so scary comparatively

[mystic marsh]

I am so lonely

[mystic marsh]

Bosses are more common in pve overall, pretty sure

I've seen the goons many times

The best way to find goons is to stop thinking about the goons

They'll spawn at some point

[vale atlas]

Its the tarkov way

Do not want the things in order to get the things

[mystic marsh]

Yes king ily

[warped imp]

That's hard to do when you know you need hard cover to not get fucked up by them

[mystic marsh]

Stfu I'm not an unc

[mystic marsh]

All you need is a corner and let them push then headmelt them

Goons are only a threat at long to medium range

But their Ai is really aggressive and loves pushing tight spaces

[warped imp]

HA, you've got jokes, I suck at conflict with the PMCs and Bosses. Mainly because no matter what weapons I use, I seem to get the worst luck, them getting Ricocheted

[mystic marsh]

But goons don't have any head protection aside for knight's shitty level 1 mask

Or was it level 2, irrelevant

[warped imp]

I know alot of folks kill them at Crack house on Customs, if that's it real name

[mystic marsh]

It's a common call-out for that medical building yeah

It also has Intel spawn

[cursive sky]

Finally another Glorious mask, had to straight up murder another scav for it though

Just need a loot plushie for kappa now

[jaunty stream]

Loot lord?

[cursive sky]

Yepp

Got a nutsack balaclava on my scav if someone needs it

[warped imp]

CAn't find the Goons, but I can Find Partizan lol

[jaunty stream]

Goons should be on customs

[cursive sky]

Are you on the correct map? They're on Customs right now

[warped imp]

Mhm

[cursive sky]

Just queued up for Customs to hunt cultists, watch me get Goons first raid

Yepp

Here they are

[stone harbor]

how are you now?

[cursive sky]

Without an arm and a leg cause I sprinted into Big Pipe

But alive

[scarlet pier]

dammit only one makarov on kabans guards

[final token]

looking for people to terminal 🫡

[cursive sky]

Stole your Goons

[jaunty stream]

I was confused why you @ me, I didn't need em

[cursive sky]

Ohhh sorry, was Moon I was supposed to at, my bad

[jaunty stream]

I just need a ski hat with holes for eyes

Been on the quest for a few days

Killed hundreds of scavs

[stone harbor]

must be FIR?

[jaunty stream]

ye

[prime trellis]

well, i hate labyrinth

[warped imp]

You probably did, I loaded in probably a minute after you talked about the Cultist, and over by the Old Gas, Nothing But Bears. I think they are scared to spawn to me because If I'm about to kill all three, they wouldn't be able to spawn back due to that I suck at the Combat

[prime trellis]

labs but shit loot and the keycard is much more expensive for no reason

[warped imp]

Hold up, do they even load into a Local Server? or do I need to be in a BSG one?

[jaunty stream]

Doing reserve train yard no bag scav farm, killing between 25-35 scavs a raid maybe guards and boss, some pmcs. But still can't find this Ski hat with holes for eyes

[mystic marsh]

Scavs be like: Kepka, vali kepku!

But I'm not even wearing a baseball cap. I have a helmet

Not to mention they often wear baseball caps themselves

[prime trellis]

600k for a keycard to a map which loot is still garbage as the rest of the maps
