it was like when youre in a source game and you noclip out off the skybox

👀

[void wadi]

i'll share whatever info i find

[forest patio]

Could be worse mine just black screened and shut my whole pc off

[inland elk]

i had the black screen after extract, and when i reset the game, it said i was in raid still, and then had me MIA

so i lost a full loadout

[forest patio]

[inland elk]

[reef furnace]

[fleet loom]

lol

[jaunty stream]

[fleet loom]

cant say im suprised

[stone goblet]

do not do any story content

youll get softlocked

[jaunty stream]

loool

[fleet loom]

at random points or a specific one?

[spiral pecan]

bsg try not to break shit challenge impossible

[fleet loom]

or does it just fully not work rn

[spiral pecan]

I'm glad my cash is being well used!

[spiral pecan]

don't touch it at all

[fleet loom]

ur cash got used a loooong time ago

probably on one of his cars or something

[spiral pecan]

yeah to buy nikita more alcohol

[jaunty stream]

Exactly

Ima go play that running game till bsg sorts their stuff out

[fleet loom]

if the story was broken how the hell did people get to terminal for all the endings?

[late jacinth]

I have to use transit to go to Labs for a while now.. since my Tour quest is bugged.. all they said to me is "We know its bugged"

[spiral pecan]

because it JUST broke dawg

[fleet loom]

ah

the volatile code

like those ancient capacitors on the original xbox

[stiff scaffold]

that's what they get for having spaguetti code

[spiral pecan]

story has always technically been fucked up though

[fleet loom]

just decides to explode someday

[spiral pecan]

some guys have been softlocked for a hot minute lol

[stone goblet]

its whatever they were doing in the backend in the last day

just bricked everything

at least we got <1m matching times on pvp lmao

[stiff scaffold]

oh yeah I saw that the matchmaking was better for pvp

[stone goblet]

its so much fucking better

[stiff scaffold]

which is a plus gotta give them that

[stone goblet]

i can go from stash to in raid in ~2m

[stiff scaffold]

despite me not playing pvp anymore glad y'all getting some dubs at least

[stone goblet]

with a match being found after 40 seconds

[split glade]

Hey any tips for finding cultists? Last night I ran about maybe 10~12 ish custom raids and never saw them at fortress. I've heard back and forth you should play on bsg servers to get spawns but I'm not sure. I have however had to fight Reshala and the goons at fortress almost every night raid for some reason. Y'all have any advice for cultist farming?

[stiff scaffold]

peak stuff

[split glade]

During 1.0 I've only gotten them to spawn once and I'm close to getting my first ending. Maybe my luck is bad I really don't know

[inland elk]

they spawned once for me and stabbed my butt

[stiff scaffold]

i've had them spawn only twice so far

first time I almost died after a 15 minute showdown

and the second time I managed to get the priest and got RB-VO out of him

[split glade]

I did manage to get one knife from them but I really need them for the story line quest that requires two priest kills. I've even been running factory when waiting for a night time customs raid of course factory barely spawns cultists at night but just trying to maximize the chances

[stiff scaffold]

had to switch between cultist armor and stuff to survive lmfao

[spiral pecan]

theres no difference between bsg servers and local

[stiff scaffold]

I have like 10 cultist knives on my stash atm

[spiral pecan]

besides performance

[split glade]

It's one of the last story quests I need 🥲

[spiral pecan]

stupid ass myth whoever created that is such an ass

[stiff scaffold]

im surprised they havent put Woods on bsg servers yet

it runs much better on bsg servers

[idle summit]

thicc case barter items are cheap rn guys

[split glade]

Yeah it's pretty confusing. I'll do whatever this point to get them to spawn. Performance isn't an issue I just want cultists 😭

[idle summit]

toothpaste and defibs are great. got a thicc case for like 18 mill barely

[split glade]

There is no way it's 25 percent though it's gotta be lower now. Can bosses spawn instead and when they spawn the cultists don't? I'm not sure if that's the case since reshala and the goons have been spawning almost every night raid

[celest crane]

Damn, that's nothing nowadays. I used to pay 75-85m for one THICC Items

[gusty whale]

Kill goons/rashala, run away, run back, they have a good chance of spawning. Bosses sometimes block their spawns

[alpine vigil]

i opened black keycard late raid, no items in there, did the AI pmcs vacuum loot it

[spiral pecan]

bsg should just artificially boost btc price atp this shit just keeps going down

[split glade]

Oh maybe I should wait before running into fortress? I immediately sprint to fortress at the start of the raid. Maybe they won't spawn if I'm already there

[gusty whale]

Tbf everything's dropped in price. Dorms marked is like 13mil avg

[celest crane]

Maybe cuz it's a bit more difficult to make rubles nowadays with how little loot there is

[gusty whale]

It doesn't matter , they can spawn at start or mid way through the raid

[agile vine]

It was overpriced cause the loot is nerfed so bad doesn't justify the price

[gusty whale]

Yup, finding it hard to grind cash on my main account now so just doing story stuff instead

[celest crane]

Yeah, making 10mill+ per hour back then was so easy

[gusty whale]

It was never worth 100 mil, it's just people had so much money that rare items were over inflated for the "fun" of opening marked rooms

[gusty whale]

Yup, only gone up a few 100 mil since 1.0, before I could easily make that in 1 event

[loud raptor]

Tbh you can still get 10mil in less than an hour running labs

[gusty whale]

Yeah, labs is still very profitable, but nowhere near pre 1.0

[celest crane]

Oh yeah, I'm curious.. why did the Comtac 6 price go to shit? Did it get nerfed?

[gusty whale]

Ear buds

[loud raptor]

Yeah it was 100% more profitable before 1.0

[celest crane]

Is there another earbud that isn't the one that initially started as an arena unlock?

[gusty whale]

Yeah

[loud raptor]

yes

[celest crane]

Can you buy it on flea?

[gusty whale]

Don't think so

[loud raptor]

You need to complete the task without armor and wearing a tank helmet

[celest crane]

I can't access the new quest to unlock it cuz I didn't wipe my account for 1.0

[gusty whale]

Doesn't matter

[loud raptor]

[gusty whale]

I have quest on main too, just haven't finished yet lol

Need to do shooter born and cargo X pt4

[loud raptor]

All I had left before wiping iirc was the last Gendarmerie task but who does all 3 of them

[celest crane]

Then I have no idea why I don't have access to the new earbud quest then, I looked at the path and I've done all the quests prior

[spiral pecan]

completionists

[gusty whale]

I ended up doing more quests on my wiped account before saviour ending in a few months than I did in a year and a half on my main lol

[loud raptor]

Lmao

[gusty whale]

Weird, maybe you done it already and forgot?

[loud raptor]

Yeah I played all my time before 1.0 and after 1.0 I only reached level 51 and barely play anymore

[gusty whale]

Check PK 4 for ear buds

[loud raptor]

it’s called the proflex iirc

[spiral pecan]

you can buy proflexes off the flea

[gusty whale]

Ye I'm not playing much either. Doing a mega hardcore run for debtor ending atm, but only playing an hour or so a day if that

[orchid crest]

I feel bad for completionists

[loud raptor]

I reinstalled baldur’s gate 3 and I am trying thr mods

[orchid crest]

Once something isn’t fun I can’t bring myself to do it

[spiral pecan]

they subjected themselves to said torture so don't

[gusty whale]

Tbf it's less its not fun, and more I just have better things to do, doesn't also help playing solo

[loud raptor]

True but at the same time it was not supposed to wipe

[orchid crest]

Especially those collect x amount of trophies or hidden item

[forest patio]

Somehow killed bird eye just now(don’t know who that is) then got killed by knight. All as soon as I spawned for my first time in shoreline to do fishing gear

[gusty whale]

Bosses

[inland elk]

birdeye, knight and bigpipe are the goons bosses

[forest patio]

well they were on my spawn and i lost the mission gear

[gaunt rune]

they're all wrong you killed a pigeon

[fleet loom]

why is the 95k option now under the intel option in scav case?

[forest patio]

I really don’t wanna do any of the missions I have if I’m honest lmao, fucking hate them

[verbal marsh]

come on, who doesn't love drip out 1 and 2

[forest patio]

Don’t have those missions

[glacial osprey]

true

quests are evil in this game

[forest patio]

I’m just gonna stick to ground zero till my friends finally decide to play

[fleet loom]

drip out 1 and 2 honestly have the best rewards for the time u spend

im totally being fr

[orchid raptor]

L bait

[bronze saddle]

i dont know if they patched it yet, but 6B45 MEDIC RIG is the ONLY ammo/armor rig which you can hide and hotkey a fucking suppressed M10 Sako

[fleet loom]

i dont really see the point in that tbh

[bronze saddle]

im just saying.... you can do that

[mystic yoke]

I opened the case for the storyline but I dont have the instruction thing, anyone know whats up? Ive restarted my game and still nothing

the only time i see this useful is if you wanna carry a 3rd long gun i guess

[fleet loom]

ur cooked brother

ggs game over man

[blissful granite]

Pocket mini mosin

[orchid raptor]

ngl N-15 better than the GPNVGs for the sole reason that it doesnt darken the ELCAN's sight picture

[bronze saddle]

thats NOT a long gun... thats a fucking sawd off

[blissful granite]

Fits tho

[bronze saddle]

i mean.. you can also fit a suppressed MP7 with 20 rounders too

[fleet loom]

on a real note tho if it didnt break its in ur messages or handbook or smth i forgot

but hold off on that until they fix story

cuz you could just get softlocked if u havent already

[mystic yoke]

Oh okay i didnt know there was issues with it right now, thanks

Of course its broken, why wouldnt it be lol

[mystic yoke]

I was able to progress it though the handbook thank you. Where are people getting soft locked? Im trying to do the fallen ending

[fleet loom]

no clue, games just broken apparently and doesnt give people a required item or doesnt register they did something

oh wow im an idiot i didnt need to farm 54R i can tjust buy ps from prapor now

[lusty merlin]

does anyone know a really good place to find power drills

[fervent peak]

As is with every other drop in the game: Go to any place with the appropriate crates (tool crates) in various maps, open loot spawns like interchange oli, or try your luck with duffle bags

[fleet loom]

interchange

[orchid raptor]

customs

[fleet loom]

interchange or customs are the hotzones

[lusty merlin]

thank you guys

[orchid raptor]

anyone know where one can get 3 packs of fucking nails

[fervent peak]

#pve-chat message

[lusty merlin]

i see them all the time in tool boxes

[orchid raptor]

this is so stupid how does my hideout magically know the difference between found in raid nails and shit bought from the flea

[fleet loom]

someone say a prayer with me to spawn kaban

[fleet loom]

ones dirty ones aint

[fervent peak]

O Lord, smite this peon with the might of the fattest of men with the hardest hitting of boolets

[fleet loom]

the dirt increases structural integrity

[lusty merlin]

theres a chance he doesnt spawn?

[fervent peak]

All bosses are 70(?)% spawn rate on their respective maps

[fleet loom]

75% chance to spawn but in my games youd assume 15%

[fervent peak]

70 or 75, don't remember

[lusty merlin]

never have i ever not seen kaban

[lethal garnet]

interesting

[lusty merlin]

and his little fucking cronies on the GL

[fervent peak]

Whelp, roll again

[lethal garnet]

he’s there quite frequently for me too, probably 80%

[marsh wing]

just found a scav with a AK GL and PS ammo?????

[lethal garnet]

yeah

[fleet loom]

i have yet to see any ai besides partizan and big pipe use the gl attatchment

they do tend to carry them quite often tho

how the hell is kollontays baton stronger than knife

[marsh wing]

[fleet loom]

[burnt pagoda]

anyone seen goons recently?

[spiral pecan]

shoreline

[forest patio]

Does a purple item just mean it’s worth a lot?

[marsh wing]

no

kinda

[fleet loom]

50/50

theyre usually barter items or streamer items

[uneven birch]

how long does it take for prapor to get the labrys keycards roughly?

[marsh wing]

wiki should say

[uneven birch]

ty

[peak silo]

where can i farm virtex?

[marsh wing]

wiki should have a bunch of locations

[quartz thicket]

god i wish we could sell ammo again

[marsh wing]

just use mechanic :)

[quartz thicket]

I'd be swimming in money selling all these ammo packs from labs

I hate how ammo boxes always pay 560rub too lmao

always have to unload ammo before selling it

[marsh wing]

okay so you know lol

ive seen some people that didnt know

[quartz thicket]

Yeah that took me a while to learn too rip all that money

[orchid raptor]

might as well run night GZ raids for the small possibility of cultists while i try and find these 2 FIR pack of nails i need

[quartz thicket]

cant go 10 steps without tripping over drawers and tool boxes in labs

[marsh wing]

marvin you got any tips for first time lab run?

[orchid raptor]

its like tarkov telepathically can sense that you need a specific item so it makes you regret all the times you dont take them

[orchid raptor]

if you get shot while running commit to it and get to cover

[marsh wing]

did you not read wiki?

There is actually a mechanic in Tarkov that when you need an item for an active quest, it decreases its spawns by 80%

[quartz thicket]

Stay away from plants if you hear raiders/pmcs, bring violet red yellow and weapons testing, loot res unit

[orchid raptor]

bring nades for the 2 big areas to check if there's raiders

that's pretty much it

[orchid raptor]

MO is good loot too but its really risky to loot

[quartz thicket]

Yeah i only loot that after I know i killed everyone, otherwise i skip it

ive gotten pinched at the entrance to MO too many times

[marsh wing]

in english please boys

[quartz thicket]

you wanna watch me go through a run?

managers office, the room floating above dome

[orchid raptor]

if you hear big men walking around with their big guns avoid leafy greens

[wintry cobalt]

what are fence's assignments on pve, since on pvp its supposed to be coop extracts

[orchid raptor]

for dailys?

[marsh wing]

nah, im doing tasks right now. I was probably gonna do a labs run tonight

[wintry cobalt]

for the ticket

[orchid raptor]

ohhhh

[fervent peak]

Wiki's got your answers~, along with any other future answers about the ticket if needed

[wintry cobalt]

well it says its still the coop extracts

but i guess maybe the smoke grenades would help

[fervent peak]

NOW I'll get involved, hold up

[wintry cobalt]

how do the smoke grenades lure the AI, i am fully unaware of this interaction

[fervent peak]

Do you see a second line that says 'PvE', and it points to a second box in the same row as scav extracts

[wintry cobalt]

ah i didnt see that i was looking at the guide bit at the bottom mb

[fervent peak]

There's an image below the info section of the ticket at the top of the page with a route tree

There ya go

[quartz thicket]

Its not the only quest like that

[wintry cobalt]

yeah i barely finished bullshit lmao

[fervent peak]

Friend amongst strangers is 7 without killing scavs

[quartz thicket]

I just legged the scavs and ran away for bullshit

[fervent peak]

inb4 they bleed out as you extract

[quartz thicket]

that happened once lmao

I had to run it twice

[unreal wren]

anyone need rusted bloody key room? i have 2 keys 😮

[spiral pecan]

you can just transit back and forth to get the pmcs

ignoring the scavs is light work aslong as they don't get on the turret

[marsh wing]

i guess im doing accidental witness now

[fleet loom]

damn kollontays bois got me good

[marsh wing]

found the kozlov letter while in dorms to start the 2nd part lol

[fleet loom]

mfrs were runnin bp, clapped my shit

3 cofdms in one raid holy shit too bad i dont need any

labry be crazy

[charred jasper]

@keen juniper ?

[charred herald]

one question i was doing terminal and i died, before terminal i had 2 evidence cases now i have only one? its ok?

[gaunt rune]

I too had 2 now only one, I think it was because of spaghetti code

[dusky magnet]

yes

[marsh wing]

all i need for intelligence 3 is the GPSA

[dusky magnet]

It is ok, you weren't really supposed to have 2 in the first place, only one is used at one time

[marsh wing]

goons still on shoreline or nah?

[gaunt rune]

I feel for you, took me 2 weeks to get it. Hope you find it faster than I did

[marsh wing]

oh i havent even done a labs run yet

im gonna do my first one tonight

[quartz thicket]

yellow and violet are gonna be your friend for those, you can find the gpsa loose but they have a good chance to spawn in those two rooms too

[marsh wing]

i have both of those from previous marked rooms

yellow, blue, violet

[gaunt rune]

near black room floor for a freebie, yellow room found most there, then violet, cat room as well.. I also found some in red sometimes

[quartz thicket]

Green is decent if you need stims, avoid blue at all times

[marsh wing]

everyone tells me to check rooms, but i dont even know the layout yet and the map is confusing

[quartz thicket]

Thankfully theres mall kiosk style maps all over the place telling you where you are

[marsh wing]

wait really?

[quartz thicket]

Yep

[marsh wing]

hell yeah

can i do practice runs after my first visit or is labs a transit into only?

[quartz thicket]

labs is transit to unlock

You gotta extract in the basement sewers to unlock it

[marsh wing]

also, 5 MP5 with PST for a 14hr CC gave me Pfilter :)

[quartz thicket]

Red Violet and Yellow are all near each other, red and violet literally in the same room

[spiral pecan]

You only need one, pretty sure it's a bug that gives you two. You'll get more via system mail if you lose one and you need to grab it from the armory in terminal after entering with it

[charred herald]

ty

[marsh wing]

i know i need the card to enter labs, once i unlock labs, do i still need card? and can i do practice runs?

[charred herald]

does someone here in pve, who wants to do terminal with me?

[marsh wing]

#pve-lfg

[spiral pecan]

yes you always need a access keycard

[quartz thicket]

You need an access card every raid, even for practice raids, but practice doesn't burn the card

[spiral pecan]

they're 1/1 use

[marsh wing]

okay, i was mainly worried about practice runs

i want to just run around without worry of losing my kit

[quartz thicket]

no insurance 😄

[marsh wing]

exactly

[spiral pecan]

Labs is pretty easy don't worry. Most likely won't get murked unless you do something stupid

[quartz thicket]

once you learn the map that is, theres kind of a fuck ton of angles to get shot from

[spiral pecan]

unless you get the dreaded raider headshot ofc

[fleet loom]

dammit kaban spawn with good ammo next time!

two saying i heard is when he became the lase one,he will fire, or he simply nade himself if you get close to him

but i cant confirm either of it

never saw him nade himself or fire at me and i been farming for that factory card for half a year, met him at least once everyday

[marsh wing]

i mean, i have no idea how long he was looking at me. I was looting bodies and then turned to see him maybe 50ft away, just staring at me

[young frost]

u know polikim is cheap af right ?

[swift path]

typical cults

first time i ran into them it was a dark ass night at wood and i literally step on one's head

that sob stand up and shoot me with apsx

[torn vale]

oh yeah they will camp out and pop up like an angry goffer

its funny as hell if it happens to a buddy

[marsh wing]

i went in at 5am, didnt get to them until maybe 7am.

[swift path]

or is it me firing apsx, idk, anyway i got the first one and died

[marsh wing]

another one of them had company key

[swift path]

this is how this game work: theyre there when youre not looking for them

[torn vale]

yeah buddy

[jovial trout]

took me 113 raids to get my d12 cultist knives for the skier quest xD

[marsh wing]

how many knives do i need?

[raw nest]

12

[marsh wing]

well, 2 down

[red kite]

none for kappa, 13 total. 12 for night sweep and 1 planted in chek 13

[torn vale]

Quests

12 need to be found in raid for the quest Night Sweep
1 needs to be found for the quest Broadcast - Part 5
4 need to be found for the quest Small Business - Part 3
3 need to be found for the quest Keeper's Word

[marsh wing]

number just keeps changing lol

[torn vale]

thats from the wiki

[raw nest]

well only 12 are needed have to be found in raid

The rest can be bought for chump change on flea

[red kite]

And none of those quest are required for kappa or anything important

[swift path]

i grind cults for factory card and i dont even need one,it still take me half a year

[golden widget]

reading the steam reviews of EFT has me giggling something fierce

[raw nest]

It plumitted in price this wipe

[swift path]

factory card can only be found on cults right? tho it can be bought from flea

[red kite]

Yes, check backpacks and pockets, especially priest

I'd take you but I just reset a couple days ago

[swift path]

like i said i dont even need that card

im lvl 63, i was looking for it simply because its the only thing i never found myself

it took me maybe half a year, cant say ive played everyday but usually when i do i wont quit till found them once

[marsh wing]

i need to do my weekly stash cleaning, but i really dont want to

[raw nest]

||Just delete everything||

[marsh wing]

i have 5 junk boxes completely full

[swift path]

and when i do find it, there was two of on same guy. and another one have dorm314 on it

[swift path]

well if youre indeed lv37 you might actually need that much

[marsh wing]

my hideout is almost done

[swift path]

i cant speak for everyone but personally i dont like filling my stash with stuff i dont need that much of

[fierce parrot]

Id rather have it and not need it then need it and not have it

[marsh wing]

i need gear rack 3, stash 4, intel 3, bitcoin 2 and 3, solar, and weapon rack 2 and 3

[swift path]

still you might save some items for barter and upcoming quest

[swift path]

ofc

thats why i said "stuff i dont need"

[marsh wing]

do i need 12 chainlets and 16 gold chains?

[swift path]

idk, quest and barter days are long behind me now

[hazy moss]

man whos wise idea was it to make electrical components harder to find than a GPU

[astral kindle]

8 FIR gold chains for scav case
2 FIR chainlets for library

[mighty coral]

Guys, Are there any unique SMGs besides the MP7?

[astral kindle]

Unique? You mean ones with ready made preset names?

[marsh wing]

M855a1 is the good ammo i can craft, right?

[astral kindle]

Yes

[swift path]

define unique

[marsh wing]

hmm, i guess i need to work on peacekeeper and stash this leatherman for him

[swift path]

yeah, you dont get to craft 556 ammo better than 55a1

[mighty coral]

Uh I mean, I just want to use an SMG other than the MP7.

[swift path]

but you also said unique

[hazy moss]

dude ive found 3 GPUS AND 1 ELECTRICAL COMPONENT, IT CANNOT BE THIS HARD

[mighty coral]

Yeah

[astral kindle]

Ah, SR-2 is good choice due ammo

[fierce parrot]

MP9, SR-2M, MP5, MP5SD, UMP45

[swift path]

surely there are smg other than mp7, but you dont just want any other smg

[astral kindle]

MP5 and UMP are kinda meh as both are outclassed by vectors

[swift path]

if by my standard p90 is equally unique as mp7

[mighty coral]

I don’t care about performance. As long as it looks cool and feels good to use, that’s enough.

[swift path]

p90 also have a unique caliber

[glacial osprey]

vector 45. other smgs are lackluster

[mighty coral]

MP5SD and P90 look solid

[mighty coral]

I like the Vector. It’s not bad too

[glacial osprey]

mp5 looks cool. that's it. p90 is complete ass

[swift path]

i think you cant add foregrip on mp5sd?

[astral kindle]

Nope

[mighty coral]

I don’t care about performance.

[fierce parrot]

I really wish you could buy more ammo from traders the higher rep/level you are

[swift path]

and...maybe some will consider it cool, mpx had a long ass barrel, 10 inch i think?

[mighty coral]

I’ll be using it alongside a TRG anyway

[mighty coral]

[hazy moss]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING 😭

80-90 rounds is pathetic for every 3 hours

[swift path]

sadly for now only eod allow you buy extra ammo

[fierce parrot]

80 rounds of M80 every 3 hours ain't cutting it

[glacial osprey]

sd barrels are better. with a ronin silencer

[hazy moss]

of course

[mighty coral]

I really like your suggestions. I’ll have to try them all out one by one

[swift path]

is it eod only or unheard can also buy more?

[fierce parrot]

Only eod?

[swift path]

oh yes, mpxsd is cool looking

[swift path]

i dont have unheard so, all i know is my unheard friend cant buy as much as i can

[bronze saddle]

bro aint no fucking way....

[fierce parrot]

I also have unheard which I upgraded from EOD thats atarded

[bronze saddle]

3 pates and a rusty blooded key within 5 minutes....

[swift path]

maybe unheard can also buy more, but surely not as much as eod

[viscid bone]

whats do you guys think is the best weapon to run if i want to be tagged and cursed?

[hazy moss]

headshot from a scav 10 miles away with a VPO-209 without a dust cover

[hazy moss]

5-7

[viscid bone]

you know what, im gonna go with 5-7. just found out a few days ago there is extended mags for it

[swift path]

oh yeah they have that now

ill suggest rsh12 tho

you didnt say must be able to survive right

[viscid bone]

i have a ton of ss190

[viscid bone]

nah just doing kill tasks

[fierce parrot]

Short barrel mosin with as much magnification as possible

[viscid bone]

what about the killing part

[bronze saddle]

i extracted

[fierce parrot]

Just shoot them

Ezpz

[swift path]

bring a knife with you then

[viscid bone]

oh true

[swift path]

or shoot them, yeah

[viscid bone]

ill try the 5-7 then ash

[swift path]

that usually work, especially when in their head

not ash12, rsh12

[viscid bone]

ohhh the revolver

[swift path]

revolver, yes

[fierce parrot]

Headshot usually do the trick about 70% of the time

[viscid bone]

yea that thing is nuts. i used to do lab runs with it

[swift path]

i bring those for srteet

[viscid bone]

yea its nice to have such a low starting weight

[swift path]

kollontay cant jam that thing

[fierce parrot]

Sometimes they dont have a brain so headshots dont work

[hazy moss]

oh my lord bro can we remove the fucking ducks already

[viscid bone]

ppsh got decent ammo now. good enough for kollontay at least

[tender rune]

can pve sell ammo boxes yet?

[swift path]

but its a revolver

[marble bronze]

Not since the incident

[viscid bone]

it doesnt jam either tho

[swift path]

i know ppsh and aa12 cant jam, and rpd/n

[tender rune]

the grest ammo box famine

[viscid bone]

you just like the cool factor

[fierce parrot]

We need some more revolver love

Where's my single action army at

[swift path]

but kollontay dosent worth to bring another gun to deal with imo

[viscid bone]

can i wear anything while being tagged and cursed? like headset or mask

[marble bronze]

Yeah, gimme a BFR in 45-70, and a lever action to match

[marble bronze]

Sure, just no rig or armor

[fierce parrot]

Now this i can get behind

[swift path]

i think its mainly armor, but if youre running handgun you wont need rig anyway

[marble bronze]

Also no backpack iirc

[viscid bone]

yea no backpack

[bronze saddle]

JUST 7 MORE PATES!!! and my thermos will be 64/64 with FIR pates!! come on, i got this shit

[marble bronze]

I usually run a Gucci Glock with 2 50 rounders and a spare gl21 when I need tagged and cursed lol

[marsh wing]

your cooler?

[bronze saddle]

ye

[viscid bone]

#screenshots message the kit

[fierce parrot]

I think its time to go clear labyrinth with a TT

Ferb I know what we're gonna do today

[swift path]

is shagilla still 100% now?

[viscid bone]

#beginners-chat message check that one out lol

[bronze saddle]

bro how the fuck do i have 20 covert movement? dafuck?

[viscid bone]

you play arena?

[bronze saddle]

hell no

[swift path]

there is a bug as far as i know it

[viscid bone]

idk thats cool though

[vale atlas]

Man strolls through maps like a crab

[viscid bone]

fr

[vale atlas]

only crouch walk

[viscid bone]

isnt covert movement slow walking?

i dont think ive ever done that in pve

[bronze saddle]

crouch walk is unreliable it drains stamina

[vale atlas]

I think its any situation where you're moving under a certain speed?

But i am also an idiot and just assume things

[swift path]

there is a bug that make all your move count as covert, it wasnt fixed last week,may still working now

[vale atlas]

Oh, damn

[swift path]

which i shouldnt talk about in offcial servere

[vale atlas]

I should have played more

[bronze saddle]

nah i walk a lot lol i just didnt think id have it this high

[swift path]

and it dosent matter in pve

[viscid bone]

what would elite even do?

[spark plank]

Are the servers currently being worked on? Acting really weird, 4 games back to back, head eyes and bosses doing weird shit

[swift path]

the only thing you can do with high covert in pve is scare the shit out of teammate,and they shot you in the face

[vale atlas]

Average tarkov experience, sometimes the AI will just be... fucky

[swift path]

that my friend, means the game hate you, as usual.

[spark plank]

level 49 almost to light keeper, they want my ass apparently lol

[swift path]

server works all right according to what happend on you

[meager coyote]

You are quieter across the board, and move faster

[swift path]

for the record they always want your arse, but yeah, they do hate you more if youre close to something

[spark plank]

Me: "im about to escape! AI: "Hold my beer"

[swift path]

thats why i have to cleear escort,because if i dont they just turn into aimbot as i live and kill pmc that get into my way

[spark plank]

🤣

[swift path]

got both of my leg then head in five second after raid begin

then according to my teammate, they simply became idiots

[spark plank]

Helping a nubie, i walk into woods to dome Shturtman and got head shot from across the fuckin sawmill lol

[swift path]

feels like its a ability with cooldown

everytime someone got one shot by ai

[spark plank]

Only one needs to cool down is me lol

[swift path]

then it will turn to morons facing teammate

[swift path]

my friend, how long have you been playing tarkov?

it seems you didnt get used to it, yet

once you do, you'll simply accept it and go "fuck nikita", and you wont even realize it

[fierce parrot]

Damn I didnt even know Shturman could have the TKPD till now

[raw nest]

yea

big gun goes boom

[swift path]

that actually make sense

its similar to svds anyway

[marsh wing]

sweet, just killed myself with a nade

idk how but okay

im only upset because that was the last customs run i needed for test drive. im 3 kills away from being done with velociraptor

[fierce parrot]

This guy definitely hit a door frame throwing an impact

[spark plank]

Im a 1000 hours in

[marsh wing]

i was throwing a f1 into gas station from behind the fuel tank and stone wall

[swift path]

that should be long enough

[dense sentinel]

I've deffinately fucked up strafing while throwing an impact and watching it hit a frame close to me lol

[swift path]

first thing one should learn in tarkov is this game hate you

[light root]

killed goons, got one tapped in head by reshala guard while looting them rip

[hazy moss]

💔 why did i give my friend 90% of the cofdms i found

[fervent peak]

It'll never be the time where Bernard and I were on Reserve, and a THIN TREE BRANCH made his m67 bounce back at him

[hazy moss]

i cant find any now i need them

[fleet loom]

rb-pkpts is ur friend

[spiral pecan]

labry

[hazy moss]

ive been there for 2 whole key hits

rb-vo has given me more, might buy the rest of the reserve marked keys atp

[fleet loom]

i get one there 50% of the time

[spiral pecan]

i got 3 out of my last labry raid

[fleet loom]

thats wild

[hazy moss]

enticing me..

ive never been there tho and im lowkey waiting so i can do the labry quest in 1 go

[fleet loom]

that sounds like a slog

[spiral pecan]

shadow tagilla can be scary but hes light work if you got the right shit

[marsh wing]

hey look, 30s into my next customs raids and i got the 3 kills i needed

[fleet loom]

i just pick up the quest stuff if i find it and focus on survival and loot

[hazy moss]

im probably just gonna run an NL545 with PPBS honestly

[fleet loom]

sa58 was the shit there

[raw nest]

Saiga12 with ap-20 vs saiga12 wsith ap-20

[fleet loom]

i slap some m993 in that baby and it 2-3 taps tagilla in the face

bro why the FUCK does the AI pmc have f1-rds 😭

[swift path]

m61 rules, or 80a1 as it is now

[raw nest]

what?
That's funny

[marsh wing]

just went up against the brightest light known to man

[swift path]

yeah 7n39 i know, its just somehow they dont name it same in my language setting

like 54r ps is still called 7n1 for me here

[lunar ice]

He one tapped my homie twice yesterday with ap20

[marsh wing]

WMX200 is fucking bright as shit

its gonna be my new light for everything

[hazy moss]

how does it compare to x400u

[marsh wing]

i kid you not, when the PMC was aiming at me from 10ft away, i couldnt even see him

[spiral pecan]

turn off volumetric lighting

[forest patio]

second time today a scav looking bear has killed me as i shot the actually bear looking pmc after not being aggro on me for 5 minutes

[marsh wing]

bro, it is...

[forest patio]

just standing there chilling then i shoot the guy wearing armor and he breals his neck to snap to me

[spiral pecan]

oh well then idk

[marsh wing]

like i said, its bright

[spiral pecan]

finally just gotta do vacate the premises then the final labry quest

[marsh wing]

im just glad i got stunned pmc kills and velociraptor kills done in same raid

[light root]

pro birdeye keeps running away, just straight up disappearing and never reappearing

[marsh wing]

its not a bad gun, but its also nowhere near the greatest

the best way i've been told is that the velociraptor feels like an airsoft rifle

the bullets just do not feel lethal

[light root]

dorms marked #10: APS, 7.62x53 PS(13), red keycard, ak-74m, clock

incredible grand finale

[marsh wing]

can goons be near dorms?

[light root]

they can spot you from the hole in the wall

[marsh wing]

which one is that?

[light root]

like the one straight down the road from dormsa

[marsh wing]

ah

[light root]

at construction site

[marsh wing]

i need dorms pmc kills and goons equipment

wish me luck boys

first time actually looking to kinda find goons

i want my bigger pockets

does anyone know why birdeye loads SSA AP into his mag of M995 every 5 bullets

[marsh wing]

preferably newborn lamb or first born son

[fleet loom]

because hes elite

in some cases a daughter will work

Dont forget the new mother

[fleet loom]

BEWARNED THIS PERSON SPREADS MISINFORMATION

jkjk

[marsh wing]

generally where would i find goons? And what to look out for?

[fleet loom]

bombs and custom

and birdeye sniping u

just check goontracker or whatever

theyre elusive

[marsh wing]

sorry, where do i find them on customs

someone said they were on customs like 20mins ago

[fleet loom]

stronghold and crackhouse

they can push u at old gas or in front of the factory buildings tho too

ive even had them push all the way out to the hanger buildings by the smugglers zb bunker bullshit

[marsh wing]

anyway to snipe at them from dorms?

[fleet loom]

no

[thorn token]

They move too much to be able to sit in a spot and snipe them on dorms

[marsh wing]

just found a scav with an empty class 6 plate carrier...

[sturdy ginkgo]

does anyone know how to fix tarkov opening as a few pixels? for some reason it's launching as a thin little line and i can't figure out what happened

[somber geode]

I haven't played in awhile, and someone told me you could buy ammo on market again, is that not the case? it still only shows me trader ammo.

[fleet loom]

just go to crackhouse and look out the broken windows at the top floor

birdeye will probably take some potshots at you but you'll be able to tell theyre there

[idle summit]

holy fuck tagilla in labyrinth is insane

[idle summit]

they removed ammo boxes again

[compact folio]

fr?

[marsh wing]

it was the case for a few days. Then a dupe bug was discovered so they removed them again

[silver elbow]

Hey guys, I've got some Problems: Did a raid with a mate, while extracting my game froze, i had to reconnect and run to another exit, es the first exit wasnt open for me now. 100m before the other extract i was put back to the lobby with "killed in action" and my sicc case, docs case and stim case was somehow gone. Restarting the game or repairing the game did nothing. And i cant continue the savior ending. I am now stuck at "Complete Fences assignment" and cant continue (shoreline and interchange are labeled as 5/5 pmc, but nothing is following up now. BTR driver also has no new story quest for me. Can anybody help me and tell me what i can try?

[somber geode]

so stupid... I don't even want to play the game because it's so hard to get acceptable ammo at lower levels. Thought I'd come back... but alas... nope.

[distant obsidian]

you dont need good ammo to shoot faces

[fleet loom]

its pretty easy to get ammo if u just hunt bosses

[distant obsidian]

also good ammo is everywherre. 545 bp, bs and 7n40 is plentyful

[somber geode]

nah I want 5.56x45 ammo for my HK builds to be plentiful

[fleet loom]

well unfortunately ur in Russia

[distant obsidian]

well, if you going to limit yourself so much, thn you better quit

[marsh wing]

do they spawn in crackhouse or near it?

[distant obsidian]

you have to use a mix of guns while leveling

[fleet loom]

if u really really really want 556 run streets and labs

[distant obsidian]

near

[fleet loom]

otherwise, whatever

[distant obsidian]

again, you dont need good ammot to click a head

it just help later on. So play around the fact you cant pen all armor instantly

[marsh wing]

shit they here

they in fortress

[distant obsidian]

goons, cultist or rash?

[marsh wing]

goons

[distant obsidian]

show them who is boss

[marsh wing]

i saw the big mustache of a guy before they fired some tracers at me

[distant obsidian]

mcx m62 prob

or some 6a1

[idle summit]

can't believe i went down in one swing from minotaur tagilla.. full level 6 armor and altyn helmet lol

[distant obsidian]

melee doesnt care about armor

[idle summit]

insane, he was so fast! Tyrell wanna join me?

[fleet loom]

XD

[distant obsidian]

naw, im chillin

[idle summit]

bruh its so scary lol first time in and that happens

[distant obsidian]

not bad, you got out of your room and found him

[marsh wing]

i caught a glimpse of them, but cant see them agian

[distant obsidian]

thats a W

[idle summit]

lol appreciate it

[distant obsidian]

that place is hard the first few times.

[idle summit]

going back in to kick his ass, need to get this storyline finished

[idle summit]

that's what she said

[distant obsidian]

I think I lived my first time because my duo distracted him

[marsh wing]

do i want to push fortress?

[distant obsidian]

[distant obsidian]

kinda, hard cover to hard cover. Agro them

you dont want to fight in the open

[idle summit]

crackhouse is good for culltists on customs

[distant obsidian]

then run back to crack ideally

[idle summit]

at least now i can barter for the cards

[marsh wing]

gonna have to push, they wont peak again

[split rapids]

bro. i was at crackhouse and partizan decided to put a tripwire on the front door then he opened the door it triggered his tripwire and blew him up LMAO

[idle summit]

LOL

i ran through 4 tripwires in my labyrinth run, kinda forgot about them

[distant obsidian]

yeah, he does that lol

[winter kayak]

Where are the best places to go in labs other than keycard rooms?

[split rapids]

i heard an tripwire trigger then an explosion so i was like parmesan is around. then i just walk downstairs and see him doing the peter griffin pose at the door 💀

[idle summit]

i spit out my water, now i have to wipe down my screens thank you

[split rapids]

i always thought he was immune to boom like shagilla but i guess not

[distant obsidian]

[icy rock]

I found a scav with 200k nvg’s what is surprising to anyone is that I followed the scav code and he extracted with me unscathed

[idle summit]

got their asses lol

holy shit killa has igonlik ammo

[marsh wing]

no goons

but reshala

reshalas guys had BT, and i KNOW i saw someone with a mustache. But couldnt find a body with a stache on it

fk it, we run it back

[mossy blade]

whats thw best place to find the little items for lightkeeper like COFDMs and allat

[idle summit]

niceee i lost server connection in the labyrinth...

[mossy blade]

I heard Labirynth is pretyy good

Also labirynth is so fckn easy with M61 or M993

[thorn token]

Reserve

The bunker and the marked rooms can have them

[mossy blade]

I also heard Labs was good for ECs, oh, marked rooms.

Shi ibe got like 60mil and no marked rooms

[thorn token]

I just found a cofdm on my first rb-vo use yesterday

[mossy blade]

I mean ifs so annoying you cant craft COFDMs

You need a LOT of them

[thorn token]

It’s just annoying to me that every cofdm you need has to be fir

[mossy blade]

Yeah, and you cant even craft COFDMs

[thorn token]

Nope

If you could they’d probably lock it behind having one of the new text books though honestly

So it wouldn’t even matter then

[mossy blade]

You need 13 cofdms total Fir

Thats a lot

[hazy moss]

are goons more common at night or smth, out of like 100 customs raids ive only ever seen them at night

[gentle pulsar]

its just a chance regardless of time

[hazy moss]

guess my luck during the day is dogshit then

[distant obsidian]

you have to ru nthye map goons are currently on

[hazy moss]

literally 99% of the time you check the tracker for pve its all customs

[distant obsidian]

because trackers are bad

[hazy moss]

https://www.tarkov-goon-tracker.com/pve

would you look at that, customs

[distant obsidian]

player reports

[hazy moss]

how else are you gonna know where they are

player reports is better than assuming

[distant obsidian]

you ask who has been them recently

[hazy moss]

so.. the tracker

people report when and where they saw them

[distant obsidian]

is this chat a third party tracker?

[marsh wing]

yeah

[distant obsidian]

you ask people here

[marsh wing]

that means i could go in and report that i just saw them on shoreline

[hazy moss]

so what, third party trackers are banned?

unreliable?

[distant obsidian]

when did I say that...

[hazy moss]

downright stupid?

[distant obsidian]

unreliable. trolls miss report all the time

[hazy moss]

and whats stopping this chat from being any different

[marsh wing]

this is what i try to explain when people ask about trackers

[hazy moss]

99% of people in here are sarcastic losers

[distant obsidian]

because people will correct miss information here quickly

[hazy moss]

ill believe it when i see it

[distant obsidian]

happens all the time

[thorn wadi]

goons are in customs

[distant obsidian]

just sawthem?

[thorn wadi]

knight JUST killed me

like 30 seconds aho

[distant obsidian]

thank you for prooving what I was saying. This is why you ask people here

[hazy moss]

yea i killed them the moment i said about me seeing them more at night

[distant obsidian]

also RIP. Youll get them next time

[thorn wadi]

lol i wasn't hunting i just reset my PVE account so starting over 😛

[gentle pulsar]

guys goons are in factory, shower floor
i think i hear water running and california girls

[distant obsidian]

o def, it happens

[hazy moss]

lowkey waiting for the timers to tick over so cultists spawn

[gentle pulsar]

are you even sure if cultists spawn during an active raid before their spawn time

[hazy moss]

🤷 idfk

[gentle pulsar]

😭 me either

[idle summit]

i made it out alive!

[marsh wing]

what kind of gunfire should i be listening for when looking for goons?

[split rapids]

the kind thats coming at you

[gentle pulsar]

an absolute knee slapper my friend

[orchid raptor]

WHERE are the goons...

[orchid raptor]

thank u

[bronze saddle]

FINALLY!! 64/64

[marsh wing]

thought i found goons. nope. Just two pmcs sitting in fortress

[glad nebula]

How do people remember to remove their air filter?

I put it in, run three raids then leave and burn 400k

[thorn wadi]

forget to do it like 3 times

you'll catch on quick

[forest patio]

After I update my drivers someone wanna help me with audit and needle in a haystack on streets? I suck bad on map navigation especially without a second screen and I just wanna get some of this shit done lol.

[light root]

you get so rich you say fuck it

[forest patio]

Also really need tp200 for hideout and a ref mission on ground zero

[glad nebula]

Yeah it's like there's no downside to my reckless behavior

It's more like..an annoying thing about the game where they intentionally left it so it will lose durability not just while you're out of raid, but also while you're offline

[light root]

i just forget to put them back in when they've expired bc i left them in for a week unattended

cost myself hundreds of xp probably lol

[gritty river]

Anyone else runing factory or GZ for PMC kill quests and noticing only 3 maby 4 PMC's spawn?

[thorn wadi]

how many do you want?

[marsh wing]

where my goons at

[thorn wadi]

customs

[gritty river]

need 50 total..

[marsh wing]

yeah, ive done two raids and i cant find them

[thorn wadi]

TWO?!?

[gritty river]

Check crackhouse and panda

[marsh wing]

bro thats what ive done

i found reshala the first one

[gritty river]

FUN fact the goons and Partisan share the same AI : they both hunt the only player controled PMC

[mossy blade]

They spawn when you dont want them.to.spawn

[marsh wing]

this has been my entire time playing this game

now i actually want them to spawn

[mossy blade]

Yeah, dont you know the tarkov syndrome

[marsh wing]

i want bigger pockets and i need their gear

[mossy blade]

Once you look for something you never find it

Hence im now stuck on Network Provider part 1

[glad nebula]

I should go hunt goons too, just to get it done with

And cultists

I guess I can go die with my NVGs on customs and get killed by two birds with one stone

[marsh wing]

thats what im trying to do

[thorn wadi]

in monster hunterverse it's called the desire sensor

[orchid raptor]

no reports of the goons in 45 minutes

theyre gone from customs 100%

[stone goblet]

Desire sensor detected

[distant obsidian]

[stone goblet]

Mfw I'm killing diablos for the 50th time hoping for a blos medula 🥀

[distant obsidian]

you into D2R?

[thorn wadi]

or a diablos hardhorn

[stone goblet]

D2r?

[distant obsidian]

diablo 2 resurrected

[thorn wadi]

not THAT diablo tyreall lol

[stone goblet]

lmao

[distant obsidian]

i thought you meant that diablo LOL

i mean d2 just got a new expac. 20 years later LOL

and probably another one coming

[thorn wadi]

just play PD2

[distant obsidian]

I was playing d4 a bit hte last few weeks. Paladin added and its been fun

[orchid raptor]

wtf

i just went from 13 million roubles to 1.9mil

what the FUCK just happened

[winter kayak]

Did they boost loot? I just made 15m in my last 2 labs runs

[distant obsidian]

no

[civic orbit]

You buy a pack of something?

[marsh wing]

taxes

[distant obsidian]

labs is still rng

[glad nebula]

Did you maybe post 10 sausages for 10x the normal market price accidentally?

[orchid raptor]

i just bought 15 packs of nails they could not have been that fucking expensive

[thorn wadi]

dont say you got good loot or else all the malders will attack

[distant obsidian]

probably

[orchid raptor]

no there aint shit in my stash

[light root]

just reminded me to bring nut can

[orchid raptor]

OHHH

[light root]

screws and nails randomly spike up to like 70k

[civic orbit]

Damnm

[orchid raptor]

I UPGRADED MY STASH

i forgot it takes 8 mil roubles or sum

[light root]

lmao

[glad nebula]

Very reasonably priced

[civic orbit]

8m to upgrade stash?

[thorn wadi]

EOD ftw

[orchid raptor]

yeah level 3 stash

[glad nebula]

Yeah if you didn't buy the pay2win editions you get f'ed

[orchid raptor]

and u gotta wait fucking 48 hours

[civic orbit]

Damn. Didn't know that.😂

[distant obsidian]

a bigger stash doesnt help me kill people better lol

you cant buy skill

[winter kayak]

Once i hit level 60 in a few hours, I will be spending 100M to upgrade my stash

[civic orbit]

Is that the final level?

[orchid raptor]

how would this correlate with the stash being 8 mil

[light root]

pay 2 win he was referring to

[winter kayak]

No, but its the final quest level

[distant obsidian]

it was in response to the p2w thing lol. Not yours

[civic orbit]

Idk. Never played the game and was talked into buying the Unheard edition. 💀

[orchid raptor]

man i gotta run more labs raids i want my 10 mil back

[winter kayak]

Hope you have been enjoying it.

[civic orbit]

Definitely have, at least.

[thorn wadi]

unheard edition is quite the commitment

[distant obsidian]

unheard 100% worth if you got the money

[orchid raptor]

no game is worth $250 wtf

it doesnt matter what game it is

[civic orbit]

Unheard just saves me time, right?

[distant obsidian]

why not, break it down to how much per hour you get.

[marsh wing]

856a1 worth taking?

[distant obsidian]

I got 3-4k hours. for 250? worth

[thorn wadi]

paying $250 for a game you may not like and has a steep learning curve is a lil wild

[heavy reef]

I have a question out of total ignorance, why some games do compile shaders and others like tark dont? does that impact positively for performance?

[distant obsidian]

huh? not a thing in tarkov

[marsh wing]

someone the other day said that unheard makes the game easier for those struggling in the beginning

[civic orbit]

I agree, thankfully within the first hour of playing I knew I was gonna be addicted.

[distant obsidian]

meh... below 40 pen but its decent until you start mass crafting 5a1

[glad nebula]

The expensive editions were more worth it with frequent wipes. Now with supposedly no wipes that goes away

[thorn wadi]

I love this game too 😄

[marsh wing]

couldnt remember how it compared to 5a1

[civic orbit]

Besides some bullshit, it's great.😂

[thorn wadi]

856A1 is not great but if youi're lower level it's better than nothing

[distant obsidian]

5a1 is over 40 pen

[spiral pecan]

ag flare does nothing on terminal

[thorn wadi]

in PVE you can get away with using 855 in a lot of situations, besides fighting killa or tagilla

[spiral pecan]

lame asf

[civic orbit]

Man, the scavs have unpredictable aim.

[distant obsidian]

thats the point

[civic orbit]

I need my armor to get low, and this fucker can't hit

[distant obsidian]

go play with orange tanks on customs

[marsh wing]

i will say, reshy has been nice to me. Tons of BT coming back with me

[thorn wadi]

this

you might wanna get a killa helmet or something in case your face gets hit

[civic orbit]

I never knew that was a thing. Until I tried using one as cover.

[marsh wing]

death shadow and neosteel

[glad nebula]

How easy decent ammo is to get from boss guards makes running AK especially viable

[distant obsidian]

F

[marsh wing]

oh i run NL545

[glad nebula]

That helps too, yeah

[marsh wing]

this one was at 95/100, but its getting sold when i extract

jammed on me during reshy

[glad nebula]

How dare it

[marsh wing]

naughty guns get stripped down and sold so i can buy a new one

[civic orbit]

Same with Labs

[thorn wadi]

maybe a brisk swat on the butt stock might teach it some manners

[civic orbit]

Ran down to turn power on and there was 2 tanks there.💀

[glad nebula]

Amazing how the best way to repair an m4a1 is to just remove all the parts and slap them on a new lower

Gunsmiths hate this one weird trick

[distant obsidian]

yep

[marsh wing]

where is reshy bunkhouse and is the key worth buying?

[willow tinsel]

weapon maintenance elite is actually so goated

[distant obsidian]

at some point they talked about making all parts weardown. But it probably wont happen

[thorn wadi]

if it's cheap and you're runnign cultists it's not a bad stop-in, but the loot seems bad lately

[glad nebula]

You will need it for a q and it has a somewhat low chance to spawn on reshala

Decent spawns too

[light root]

i have killed birdeyes, the others yelled "its clear" and havent pushed me at all

i only need his rig for the quest, am i good to leave?

[thorn wadi]

when 1.0 first came out i was finding taigas and all sorts of yummy stuff in there, lately it's like a BTC every 10 raids or soemthing

[light root]

or are they gonna still follow me?

[marsh wing]

i have 9 30rd mags from reshy guards. All full of BT

[distant obsidian]

if they see youy again, yes

[light root]

word let's skedaddle

[distant obsidian]

BT is ew
