[little portal]

Yeah we have been to his Bunker like 10 times and nothing

[twilit oracle]

[formal haven]

Idk

[willow stump]

anyone else having trouble w v-ex, im in 6 woods raids and havent found it once for lightkeeper

[drowsy juniper]

Just bad RNG

i miss when it was 100% chance

[charred herald]

bruh rn ive found dorms marked key from scav case

[willow stump]

its ridiculous now it feels like a 15%

not even worth farming for scav rep

i just found it 🤤 😩

[vale atlas]

Since i came back during the christmas event, v-ex hasn't been there at all lmao

[thorn wadi]

in case anyone's wondering the goons are in customs

[dawn echo]

bsg server or local

[thorn wadi]

bsg servers

i dont know how that would be helpful if i was on local servers

[jovial cobalt]

should work the same on bsg servers and on local

[teal geode]

@indigo void Gotta praise laby for cofdm again, just pulled 3 in 1 raid lmao

Also feels like they buffed the loot up in there with last night's patch, 3 gpu + a p filter too

[indigo void]

YESSSS I COMPLETED NETWORK PROVIDER PT.1

[teal geode]

lmao was just typing that

[indigo void]

ALL 4 COFDM FROM CULT

The G28 sacrifice is meta

[teal geode]

6 hours cultist circle? Yeah those are def busted lol

[indigo void]

140k for a g28 to sacrifice

I just need to do Network Provider 2 and unlock lightkeeper

Should be easy enough

[hazy moss]

bro i just pulled rusted bloody key off a scav in CUSTOMS

[indigo void]

Problem is I need to wait 2 raids so the rogues won't slime me

[teal geode]

remember you can use epsilon (or was it theta) to do 2 of them safely in 1 raid

[forest patio]

just pumped 10 rounds into tag on factory he didnt even budge, i get hit once and die instantly because thorax instakill

was letting lose with a 70 round mag didnt even matter

[storm sierra]

are the goons still on customs?

[indigo void]

Yup

I am in the process of completing Punisher 6

I am 4 kills in

[red wing]

Does anyone know if u need to turn in minor evidence for the savior ending?

[indigo void]

I think they're on all four maps

[tough pawn]

optional

[red wing]

alright thanks

[hot nimbus]

Did anyone else's quests progress get reset or when your loading does it not show your progress on quests?

[teal geode]

The, like, preview screen of stash/tasks while loading? IIRC that does not show progress correctly so you should be good

[storm sierra]

gotcha thank you

[indigo void]

@teal geode What's the best map to King Von the most PMCs in, excluding Factory

[tough pawn]

streets ofc

[indigo void]

I don't play Streets I have 24GB of RAM

and a GTX 1650😭

[teal geode]

if not streets then interchange or lighthouse honestly

[storm sierra]

i have 96 and a 3070ti and it still runs like shit

[tidal egret]

Are marked rooms still a waste?

[teal geode]

Jeez 545 95 rounder tripled in price lol

[indigo void]

Depends on if you have Obs opened in the background or not

If you don't, don't hit marked, the loot is shit

[hazy moss]

did they add new quests for theta container??

i dont remember "professional fitness" p1 and 2

[indigo void]

Personally every time I open OBS recorder in the background I always get better loot

[tidal egret]

You’d think key prices would go down somewhat

[indigo void]

It would go up honestly

Cause that way people buy less and hunt for marked less

Supply and demand yk

[soft hare]

Its not like i was already working on them dummy. Everything is updated

[tough pawn]

is doing lightkeeper tasks even worth it? like if i can already buy ronin's and i already have a stockpile of hybrid, what else is really worth doing lightkeeper tasks for?

[soft hare]

You don't have to do anything, but the final reward is the SPEAR buy option

[teal geode]

hybrid is about it, also loot run to the island is rather chill

[tidal egret]

How is the loot out there

[thorn wadi]

garbage

[teal geode]

right now not so good, I do pull a black out of the bedroom sometimes tho

[marsh wing]

sweeeeet. I'll have to update my guns tomorrow. Im on a Tarkov strike right now

[tidal egret]

Sad

[twin sundial]

is there some sort of event going on? bosses have been 100% spawn all day.

[tidal egret]

Streets used to be great for loot but now it’s not great IMO. Labs is the only map I run for loot.

[marsh wing]

the game is bugged. All bosses are spawning and goons on every map, no rotation

[marsh wing]

you know what we call it?

[tough pawn]

i've ran like 3 customs pmc raids with my pal, and the goons infact are not a 100% chance

[teal geode]

felt like they increased scav spawns too, saw them crawling everywhere in resort

[twin sundial]

i lost uh .. everything. this is a bug? the 100% boss spawns?

[marsh wing]

goons arent 100%, but they are spawning simultaneously on their maps

[tough pawn]

probably

[marsh wing]

@soft hare can we get a GOONATHON event page added to wiki?

[twin sundial]

i wish i’d known before playing and losing everything on my one day off 🙁

[tough pawn]

either that or nikita just wants to fuck people over, i wouldn't be surprised honestly

[twin sundial]

can someone send me a letter the next time this shit happens so i know to avoid. snail mail is fine.

[fervent karma]

You'll get it back insured

[twin sundial]

yes .. in 3 days

[fervent karma]

12-18 hours

[twin sundial]

it’s more of a hit to my morale than anything

[fervent karma]

Therapist ftw

[tough pawn]

never giving prapor my kit ever again, i don't want his greasy ass hands touching all over my altyn visor, he's probably gonna give me like hiv or something

[teal geode]

Is partizan 100% too, suppose can use this to go for snowball

[marsh wing]

bosses arent 100% guaranteed

[twin sundial]

yes. i killed him .. and then bled to death after.

[twin sundial]

they are today!!!

[tough pawn]

why is boss loot so underwhelming a majority of the time

[twin sundial]

also fucj this boss specifically. loot eater and bullet absorber.

[forest patio]

no scavs do

[marsh wing]

both can

pretty sure i saw a pmc with a diff dogtag on him the other day

[twin sundial]

scavs love to hoover up your kill’s dogtags the second you kill them. always a race to the corpse.

[marsh wing]

i killed Killa the other day, had to kill 16 scavs to get to his body

they had looted everything he had but his helmet. fucking miserable

[twin sundial]

it wouldn’t bother me except on scav runs. either tank scav rep or extract with no tags.

[sinful tree]

are any optics at all compatible with t7s?

[tough pawn]

i think you can only use iron sights but idk

[indigo knoll]

Is the best place to find electric components GZ?

[indigo void]

what's the best strategy to go for snowball

[indigo void]

Grenade launcher building and utyos building

[twin sundial]

i get them from power station on interchange whenever i need them

[indigo knoll]

yeah i figured, those buildings and kashpersky

[twin sundial]

i’m sure it’s not the best place but it’s relatively safe

[indigo void]

Dont forget tartowers

[peak edge]

fastest way to get fence to 4.0 rep?

[indigo void]

Transit as scav several times and extract

[peak edge]

okay cool

[twin sundial]

it takes forever no matter what but vehicle extracts as PMC and killing PMCs that have shot or killed scavs (in scav mode) is how i got mine up

[median gyro]

yeah some runs id get like 0.21ish for a quick run on ground zero id camp up in the turret building 2nd floor

[teal geode]

WTF just spawned locally on woods next to taxi and saw the bastard just drive off lmao

[twin sundial]

my favorite is when you’re in the BTR and he kicks me out while i’m picking a destination

[stone harbor]

gotta do it fast everytime haha

my buddy was busy sending loots back home and I just paid the fee to Sawmil lmaooo

[twin sundial]

my first time using it i went to “rail depot” thinking i’d just run to UN extract from there. yeah no. snipers in four sides. and didn’t know the secret exits then.

[stone harbor]

what did you do at that time? search for the secret exits on top of train cart?

[twin sundial]

i mean. i got my ass shot to bits by snipers because i thought i was trapped.

[stone harbor]

[twin sundial]

tarkov is a game about learning. and screaming and crying.

[marsh wing]

fuck tarkov

got killed 3 times in a row by kaban over the span of 2 days

i took his PKP from him and he fucking has it out for me

[twin sundial]

i feel pretty strongly the depot layout needs to be redone if it’s gonna be a BTR destination. you’re just making new players rage quit.

[marsh wing]

depot is fun

[distant obsidian]

depot is making new player rage quit? LOL

[forest patio]

how the fuck is 20 rounds of 7.62 aiming specifically for unarmored locations on tagilla not enough

[twin sundial]

no no. rail depot in woods.

[distant obsidian]

interesting take.

[marsh wing]

rail depot in woods is fun. I like having to wait or jump out

[distant obsidian]

because hes got a fuck ton of hp and using 762 as a flesh round is VERY bad

[stone harbor]

very true, but what can you learn after the fact of [head, eyes] or ears?

[twin sundial]

i’ve never been able to kill him except when emptying a mag into his head. the “shoot his stomach” trick has never worked for me.

[distant obsidian]

depot is not making new people rage quit

you literally just take a ride over.

[twin sundial]

getting trapped in rail depot specifically

[marsh wing]

its not hard to get out...

[distant obsidian]

you cant, you walk out

[stone harbor]

this is why we have pre-raid research XD

[twin sundial]

lmao. no. you don’t. you clamber over trains.

[stone harbor]

you find a way to get in AND a way to get out

[distant obsidian]

jesus fuck dude. You walk on the train

its just as easy as walking out. you just leave when you want

[marsh wing]

but you have to vault like twice bro

[twin sundial]

i did say it was my opinion

i’m not making a petition okay

[stone harbor]

what Tyr is saying is, maybe not technically correct, but the sentiment is still there, you walk out of there, not ride or fly out of there brother XD

[distant obsidian]

omg your so right. Game is UNPLAYABLE DEUHBGHBDGFGFG

[forest patio]

awful lot of fight back for an opinion

[distant obsidian]

and its a bad one.

just take the L and laugh it off as a dumb opinion. We all do it

[marsh wing]

i made a petition once and they took it down :( I was trying to make a petition to get my boss fired...

[twin sundial]

i did not expect fierce objections to a mild opinion on a minor area’s layout

[distant obsidian]

"Yeah you guys are right, my bad." See? Easy

[distant obsidian]

[twin sundial]

no. i don’t think so. eat humpback.

[marsh wing]

EAT SAURY YOU PERSON

[stone harbor]

@twin sundial Tyr is just teasing you, but he is correct. Tarkov is all about learning from mistakes, but due to the risk that can reach skyhigh, we can mitigate it via pre-raid research, just like what you do when doing a task, via checking wiki on how to do/what to bring/where to go. For Old Depot, you do the same, research a way to infil & exfil. Same with real life when there is a fire in a building XD

[distant obsidian]

duck

[marsh wing]

i prefer Tarker but okay

[distant obsidian]

ok so I rebuilt all my guns into a meta or near meta build. Overall its a nice change

[forest patio]

well i guess im done for the night now that i have to wait for three guns and two ronins to come back from insure

[twin sundial]

it didn’t upset me. i was just saying it’s a bit needlessly punitive without knowing the area beforehand.

[distant obsidian]

I am upset I cant keep using the MK11 supp for the sr25. We JUST got it and now its dead 🙁

[marsh wing]

send your NL545 build, or else

[distant obsidian]

NL is kinda ass now

[twin sundial]

tagilla?

[marsh wing]

it honestly really is...

the most i could get was 44.3 ergo and less than 200 recoil

[forest patio]

two of them were tag one was just a dumb ass scav with magic trachea targeting capabilities

[distant obsidian]

#weapon-modding to compare a 30 round NL to a 60 round m4. Nl is.... sad

[indigo knoll]

honestly depot can be annoying to leave sometimes ig especially if there are mercs waiting outside but its not rage inducing

[stone harbor]

dont worry, everything is all come down to pre-raid research, you can get lost in maps and that is not your fault for a newbie, but failed to conduct research is a totally a mistake XD

[distant obsidian]

NL is still good, but the gap between it and the m4 now is a LOT larger

and m4 can use 60s

[twin sundial]

while i’m making people mad i think tagilla should be nerfed

[marsh wing]

have you compared M4 to Model 1?

[stone harbor]

M4 is ew, I prefer AK-12 & As Val Mod 4 supremacy

[indigo knoll]

also the stupid train can glitch mines on it sometimes that shit sucks lol

[distant obsidian]

that m4 is a model 1. I use the model 1 upper and model 1 handle. Its only missing the lower which makes the m4 even better, but they burn out to quickly so I dont use it

[indigo knoll]

i would run ak-12 more bc its so sexy but it likes to jam at 95 dura for some fucking reason

[forest patio]

theres like four versions of tag and all of them fit the high on several chemicals build.

[marsh wing]

so you use a M4 with the M1 parts that dont get damaged? So the only thing you have to replace is the M4 receiver?

send me your build so i can build one tomorrow

[distant obsidian]

yes, build break down is posted

[finite agate]

Unlucky, ive only had 1 jam so far and it was from an m4 fighting the goons at Pier

[marsh wing]

no SE-5?

[distant obsidian]

also with the m4 lower you can use the BAD. So the m4 lower is ALMOST as good as the model 1 lower. Its really negligible

[forest patio]

all my jams have been russian guns

[distant obsidian]

se5 is worse then the AFG now. SE 5 and mlok combo is heavier as well

[marsh wing]

okily dokily, ill build one up tomorrow

[tough pawn]

se-5 is worse now?

[distant obsidian]

even before this patch the AFG was just as good as the SE 5 because of the weight.

[jovial cobalt]

is it stupid to ask for a summarization of all of the attachment changes or is it pretty much like
time to figure everything out again

just now getting on the game

[distant obsidian]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQRytLuAWgs

[finite agate]

How's the old high ergo grip looking now? I havent logged on in a couple weeks

[distant obsidian]

try that. I havent watched it yet, but it might be good

[jovial cobalt]

knew it was gonna be gigabeef

[forest patio]

just go through them because it was every attachment

[indigo knoll]

ngl the NL545 is still good esp for a 5.45x39 gun, especially the gas piston one

[distant obsidian]

his "meta"m4 build at the end is actually kidna bad so.... take this vid with a grain of salt. I have yet to watch it, about to now

[finite agate]

Just drum that shit out

[jovial cobalt]

im sure it will take a bit of time for everyone to figure stuff out again

[distant obsidian]

but yeah, I spent the last 2 hours building guns and and figuring out the new stuff. I "think" I built the meta m4

[indigo knoll]

RPK-16 build with long barrel has more MOA and recoil control than ak12 which is a little silly but yuh

[distant obsidian]

but there is always a little variation for meta based on wanting more ergo or recoil. So its still prefrence

[indigo knoll]

its pretty fun, it doesnt have access to the afg but its alr i like to use the stark on it anyway

[distant obsidian]

but also non meta parts are still very good so its a lot easier to build a gun now.

[indigo knoll]

the NL55 only went up by like 6 vert recoil for my build when changing flash hider and like 9 horizontal

[distant obsidian]

again, its not that its bad. Its that the differnce between that and a m4 with a 60 is even larger now

when before it was close

with both using 30s. But the massivve buff to the 60 pmag is honestly a game breaker

that alone sets it apart from the NL. But NL still good

[orchid raptor]

where goons

anyone encountered them recently?

[peak silo]

What will be the new event in the game?

[median gyro]

apparently at customs

[peak silo]

nop

[distant obsidian]

icebreak in q2. Check the road map in #eft-announcements

[dawn echo]

custom last game

[stone harbor]

damn this news set the fire in my heart up again, I just hope it will actually happen

[mint bough]

OH MY GOD I JUST SHOT A ROGUE IN A MACHINEGUN, HE STARTED HEALING AND THEN OUTTA NOWHERE STARTED FLYING TOWARDS THE PENINSULA AND BLED OUT CUZ I GOT A TASK DONE BUT WTF

#eft-announcements message

[stone harbor]

Nikita granted you that kill, to complete your task, pray Nikita

[distant obsidian]

yes does, scroll up

[unborn knoll]

Goons on Woods if anyone cares

[jovial cobalt]

yezzirrr jammer recieved

[viscid radish]

just me or did u guys get The Courier quest again? Its the one where u need to stash 2 REAP-IRs on customs

[jovial cobalt]

lol cant ads in shooting range now

[dawn echo]

bsg or local

[jovial cobalt]

doesnt matter

[median gyro]

that shouldnt matter i thought

[jovial cobalt]

until like someone proves it otherwise with some kinda testing and results i cant believe it

[spiral pecan]

no difference between the two besides performance shit

[median gyro]

believe what you want mate haha

[jovial cobalt]

?

[dawn echo]

the tracker is just so messy right now what is happening

[median gyro]

well its worked for me when i have quests and i wanted to avoid them

yeah less and less people are reporting on websites

[spiral pecan]

its always messy. has dudes trolling it 24/7

[median gyro]

where do you guys look for goons anyways

[jovial cobalt]

i prefer to fight them on customs when they're there

[median gyro]

ye i cba to get clapped in a open field from a bush xD

[jovial cobalt]

shoreline is too open woods is too vietnam war lighthouse is kinda laggy

[spiral pecan]

Customs is the best map to fight them no debate

[median gyro]

lighthouse can be good at night and apparently u can snipe for free on stupid rock

[spiral pecan]

Plenty of cover & spawns/exits are great

[quartz thicket]

whats the key people say to get the cofdms from? pkpts?

[unborn knoll]

was BSG btw

[spiral pecan]

Yes

[tough pawn]

pkpts or labyrinth

[median gyro]

its been nerfed tho

[stone harbor]

damn, comparing Woods to Anti US Invasion in Vietnam is an underrated statement XD

[dawn echo]

ty

[quartz thicket]

Thanks. I dont need them guys, I was just asking to know

[median gyro]

labs is best imo

[quartz thicket]

Ive got like 4 in the stash so i was checkin

[tough pawn]

is terminal armory bugged? earlier today i had to clear black division with an rpdn with like ps in it or some shit, i couldn't find my kit

[spiral pecan]

did you check the safe closest to the table

[jovial cobalt]

lmaooo

[tough pawn]

yes

[stone harbor]

I need to get 1 more Cofm, but I accidentally pressed the accept task button, now it do not drop in that fucking room

[toxic patio]

I hate that the CQR is meta now it was my favorite budget attachment

Now it’s like 100k+ on flea

[distant obsidian]

you hate that its good?

[spiral pecan]

The first safe by the table spawns ur kit the rest just spawn random shit

[median gyro]

yeah u dont really get much in that room anymore for me anyways haha

[toxic patio]

No I hate that it’s popular because it’s not cheap anymore 🫠

[young frost]

im not looking forward to having you rebuild 8 thicc cases worth of guns

[median gyro]

streets ive had a few too

[spiral pecan]

cheap? pve?

[distant obsidian]

plenty of other good cherap stocks

[toxic patio]

I like Hera arms stuff in general

[marsh wing]

Rust is better than Tarkov right now

[spiral pecan]

idk bout that one

[jovial cobalt]

[toxic patio]

Well sure but the cqr had drip

[median gyro]

maybe if your 14-16

[quartz thicket]

Still get it from mechanic tho

[obsidian stone]

is the achievement 'Better Served' ( not selling the EMP piece to mechanic ) not available for PVE? I just did the decision, and got nothing

[young frost]

are you smoking crack ?

[toxic patio]

True I just don’t have that yet

[marsh wing]

im 26. I enjoy Rust. And yet, im not racist

[toxic patio]

Grinding gunsmith for it rn

[stone harbor]

I had it, but in Steam only

[quartz thicket]

Ill sell some cheap just for you

[tough pawn]

ruined the game with basic frags, let alone trying to get a tier 3 xd. if your not playing 6 man or above you are NEVER seeing a tier 3 ever again

[distant obsidian]

the cqr forgrip is terrible now to. Like one of the worst

[spiral pecan]

Tarkov is a masterpiece of a game even if its not great technically

[toxic patio]

I know it fucking sucks

[quartz thicket]

Wait weren't you the one who needed the nut sack?

[toxic patio]

Why would they nerf the cqr forehrip

[marsh wing]

Tarkov only sucks because Kaban killed me 3 times

[stone harbor]

but it still looks good?

[median gyro]

I was a Ark sweat so i cant say anything

[obsidian stone]

damn. ok. thank you.

[toxic patio]

Found one on a raider

[quartz thicket]

Nice

[distant obsidian]

#weapon-modding you can see my m4. "Probably" like a pve meta. Just ignore my tac devices lol

[toxic patio]

Yes but since every decent attachment got nerfed you kinda need to run the best to emulate the feel of a decent build

[toxic patio]

Real I just use the DBAL

[willow tinsel]

I just got cockblocked by a boss on Terminal, otherwise 1st run went pretty well, up until getting 1 tap

[toxic patio]

PvE meta is just 60 ergo minimum and good recoil

Overswing isn’t a big deal

[stone harbor]

so it is not the fact of numbers, but the feel only? I'm sad

[spiral pecan]

unlucky. Can skip over the boss 80% of the time unless they fixed that lmao

[toxic patio]

Yeah my favorite attachments are either super pricey or ruin the feel of the rifle

[stone harbor]

the whole rebalancing made my game night last night was a "read and compare" session lmao

[toxic patio]

I’m running money with cheap SMG rn to save up to rebuild all my guns for the new system

[distant obsidian]

I loved rebuilding all my guns

[spiral pecan]

I don't think they shouldve touched the stats im not a fan of whatever tf is going on

[distant obsidian]

this was great

[willow tinsel]

Im tryinng a different route on my 2nd run, people say they bypass it by taking the southern route, but idk if the boss is just going to follow you over there

[stone harbor]

too much to read and compare, not enough time to fuck around and find out

[distant obsidian]

meta isnt as good and mid tier builds are better. gap is way lesser

you can use the cool rule and get a good build

[median gyro]

the gap will still be ammo based anyways

[stone harbor]

My choice of gun build is 1. looks nice & 2. focus in Recoil and high Ergo

the rest I dont care

[median gyro]

tbf I dont get to use the guns i want to use much anyways with all these quests and requiring certain guns xD

i just deck all my quest guns up as much as i can which i like doing anyways

got no money sink

[stone harbor]

those quest aint too many, brother, unless you do not like M4 or bolt-action

[median gyro]

im currently doing a ak74 quest

[stone harbor]

Test drive?

oh the 100meters quest

[median gyro]

na i like my bolty and m4s but i had like 2 quests to use them xD

nah its 'best job in the world'

for gl underbarrel unlock

[stone harbor]

I always bring my AXMC to all raids, I'm like 49kg (1 Vector or As Val as sub) but I dont care XD I just love bolty so much

[median gyro]

haha yea or a DVL if i got m61

[stone harbor]

born to be a sniper, forced to be an ops, retired and got back to bolty again hehehe

[median gyro]

i just spam using meldonin

15mins of +20 stre and elite perk means ur weapons weigh nothing

and it gives energy regen

[stone harbor]

exactlyyyy

[stone harbor]

ehh that's stamina regen brother

[pallid merlin]

so I guess they nerfed alot fo guns accros the board?

[fleet loom]

am i trippin why does everything look weird

[median gyro]

lvl 49 stre atm

[stone harbor]

no you are not, it is weird after last patch

[median gyro]

ill still use it for that regen

[stone harbor]

new weird is good weird

[pallid merlin]

MLOK AFG MASTER RACE

[stone harbor]

ofc heck it's stamina regen, it's great

[toxic patio]

I do like running cool shit over meta

the UXR gandgard? I think the one with the side fillers

Love that one so much. Still sad we don’t have an RDB

[drowsy juniper]

How does auto ram cleaner work now? Doesnt stutter when you hit esc, and ram usage doesnt go down at all either?

also ran into customs raid at 6:30 am, spawn fortress and clear cultists in like 3 mins, giga rng spawn

[median gyro]

mp7/dvl is my favourite to use

[spiral pecan]

oh hey bitcoin price went up

[median gyro]

40 is needed for one of the endings

the saviour one i think?

[drowsy juniper]

Na not just saviour, I had to hand it over for Debtor

[median gyro]

Ive barely done any story bits tbh

[drowsy juniper]

i think its all endings except 500 mil is 40 bitcoin

[median gyro]

i wanna finish all the quests i can before i spend the time on that

[gusty badger]

This patch has me feeling like im playing Arma 3 with ALL the mods again

[drowsy juniper]

Yeaahh no harm in taking your time with it

[median gyro]

im like 5 quests off kapa

[drowsy juniper]

Some of the changes i really like, and some i cant stand, Like the gral being just bad now, is annoying, as i used that purely for looks anyway, and it just happened to be one of the best ones before

[median gyro]

goons and killing pmcs in dorms

[drowsy juniper]

bro my kiteco put in work to save my life, tanked a few SNB rounds from cultist

[gusty badger]

I just meant my FPS and all the random stuttering that I'm getting 😵

[drowsy juniper]

Oh bro i misunderstood as weapon mods, my bad

[gusty badger]

Not one map has played well for me today other than maybe the first one on a fresh restart

No worries

[drowsy juniper]

never played much arma 3, but had like 3k hours in arma 2 dayz, good o' times

[median gyro]

bro dont do a night raid with NVGs to kill shturman for that m700 shit scope quest

[gusty badger]

Just got face fucked by parmesan with only 5 fps lol

[median gyro]

i was blind firing and i have no idea how he didnt hit me i missed like 20 shots and all i could see was a massive glowing green circle and without the nvgs it was too dark

[gusty badger]

sounds intense

in the bad way

[median gyro]

it was frustating tbh but yeah its the burris fullfield tac30 scope it doesnt mix with ngs

[gusty badger]

I'm stuck on that one right now. Not a fan of the reticle at all

[median gyro]

i figured it would be easier to do at night as bosses are more blind

try it with nvgs hahaha

[gusty badger]

not a bad idea trying it at night though

if its decent out

[orchid raptor]

has anyone seen the goons recently

[median gyro]

its a glowing green ring and u cant see the middle part

the dot i guess?

u could use a geiss witha red dot on top tho

[gusty badger]

That sounds terrible

The red dot on top with nvgs isn't bad generally

[median gyro]

na red dot should be fine its only 70ms like

[gusty badger]

I just meant the ring glowing

[toxic patio]

there is no wfucking way they made the CQR foregrip a +3 ergo and-1v -3hz

[distant obsidian]

yes it bad

[toxic patio]

they made it worse than the RK6

[distant obsidian]

mhm

[toxic patio]

that's literally just an ego nerf wtf they just killed it because it was popular

[median gyro]

slap a Trijicon SRO reflex sight on top of that scope and ull be fine

[distant obsidian]

i dont think it was popular at all

[toxic patio]

it was to me :(

[distant obsidian]

i did not see anyone use it anymore

[toxic patio]

a lot of people hated it for being ugly did they not

[distant obsidian]

its just big

[median gyro]

why must i hoard all the guns i get

[orchid raptor]

W loot goblin

[median gyro]

10 thicc weapons cases and i still have 10-20 more filling the stash

well one thicc i use for grips and suppressors

now all the mod parts in these weapons have changed they will need fixing :(

[spiral pecan]

holy shit they nerfed the mk18 to the ground

52 ergo to 34.4 this update sucks ass

[median gyro]

do you guys think they will bring back the ammo packs to be sold on flea again again?

[orchid raptor]

they'll bring it back when they fix the dupe bug

which is probably in like 3 years

[median gyro]

kk cool

ahahaha

[marsh wing]

@distant obsidian im gonna have to keep running 545 until i unlock 5a1 craft unless you have another solution to my ammo issues

[velvet crest]

anyone tryna go to terminal

[distant obsidian]

nope, crafting is the solution

plus hitting terragroup security any time your on streets

[marsh wing]

Shit. Guess i need to speedrun PK. I cant remember where i am with his quests

I do need funds. After i get urban medicine done, i might just run streets for easy money

Tarbank been treating me nice with like 150-300k rub per 2hits. Not including Eur or Usd

Plus i want to find RBK

[willow tinsel]

Hold on guys, so once you bring the container with all the evidence inside Terminal and die, you wont have to bring it onn your 2nd run?

[velvet crest]

[versed pine]

bsg servers, right?

[echo hamlet]

yeah

got my naked runs interrupted by them

[orchid raptor]

both reshala's guards and goons in night customs =jesus christ what a clusterfuck

still won thank god

i thought goons and reshala werent allowed to both spawn in fortress at the same time??

my god i dont even know how im still alive holy

omfg im having a harder time fighting the guards than the goons

why must they meander around in the 2nd floor

[indigo knoll]

i still cant find electric components for the life of me

[mint bough]

run interchange and hit computers, you can find plenty there

[indigo knoll]

i ran gz and didnt find a single one 😭

[versed pine]

i find a lot hitting filing cabinets in reserve bunker

[mint bough]

gz is buns, just go back of oli you can hit atleast 10 computers easily

[peak silo]

only in night?

[distant obsidian]

they all spawn during the day as well

[peak silo]

oh ok , but f for only happen in customs

[versed pine]

god bless rng, i've repaired this nl545 twice now and both times it's repaired to 100.0

[mystic trench]

I went from Customs to Shoreline and transferred items back to base that I need. How long does that take to show up?

[orchid raptor]

[quartz thicket]

Yeah my labyr transits usually show up by the time i looted the whole place, i was just being safe

also are scav raid time loads way faster after this patch?

[light root]

wtf

[quartz thicket]

ughhh i forgot my fking terminal papers

[tough pawn]

i made it to the zubr and i forgot to pick up the evidence once, wasn't my proudest moment

[quartz thicket]

Woof. I just meant my key to get in at least

[forest patio]

oh i didnt see till just now i cant buy xray

[sacred ferry]

Did this patch do something to the goons spawn rate?

Because I've literally seen them in every single raid I've done out of nowhere, on every map

[golden thorn]

I mean free loot and grenade launchers

[sacred ferry]

I just thought it was weird because I did a LOT of raids and basically never saw them

And then they were in about 14 straight raids across 3 maps\

[winter kayak]

I am trying to collect 7 of every barter item, I want to know what order the game puts them in. Is there a list or IDs associated to items?

[ashen anchor]

the best feeling in the world is your gun malfunctioning in front of a boss like Kaban noice idk how i survived that lol

welp my plate is gone gone

[mental halo]

@tough pawn some walls on terminal they can pen. took me awhile to figure it out.. now they are easy to run through

[tough pawn]

the part i struggle with on terminal is those two fucks next to the pumping station

started shooting me through a stone wall lmfao

[jovial cobalt]

those were annoying for me too i think they killed me once or twice

[tough pawn]

i was aiming too high when he was coming up the stairs, since i killed the first one

[mental halo]

@tough pawn i make them come to me.. i throw grnades beofre i jump over to run around the silos

[tough pawn]

i've been trying to bait them into the silo's but black div ai is super weird, not like in a smart way, the ai is pretty dumb but their aim is crazy

[mental halo]

@tough pawni dont go into the silos i fight them beforehand.

[tough pawn]

maybe i'll try that, just get it over and done with

[mental halo]

@tough pawn i get it.. i run people through because most people have issues running it

[tough pawn]

that's the one part on terminal i really struggle with, aside from that and the guys at the shipping yard just because it's a pain in the ass when all 4 of them are lined up

[mental halo]

@tough pawn some of it is easier as a duo or more. i have a strat for each different group

[ashen anchor]

bruhhhhhhhhh my other gun malfunctioned too..... and Kollontay bet me to death with his melee he closed the door on me while that is happening what is going on man my gun is at 95% durability WTFFFFF

[mental halo]

@tough pawnusually no but i think its possible. doesnt really matter though. the only thing more people does it make it easier

[ashen anchor]

thats it im carrying a new gun every game fuck this garbage ass game

[quartz thicket]

kollontay jams your gun in close range bro

[versed pine]

^

[ashen anchor]

oh

[quartz thicket]

While Kollontay has his PR-Taran police baton equipped, currently held weapons of players in his proximity forcefully jam due to the Panic attack effect. Kollontay will draw his baton and charge players if he feels players have gotten too close to him, even if it's around a corner.

[ashen anchor]

he never got close to me before haha that explains it

[versed pine]

use an open bolt weapon, theyre unjammable

[ashen anchor]

my first jam was 1 raid ago to Kaban but my weapon was at 85% probably

[tough pawn]

the most shit mechanic in this game by far

[shy thorn]

what plates do i fit

in my cpc

[tough pawn]

if you have cult termite from tagilla i'd put those in there

[versed pine]

or if you have any kiteco plates left after christmas

[tough pawn]

can't u buy kiteco from ragman 4 or am i thinking of something else? ik there's a barter for a class 6 plate at ragman 4

[versed pine]

i think those are the gac ones

idk i crafted a few cases of the kiteco ones during the winter event so i havent had to look lol

the gac class 5 is always an option if you wanna save money bc you can keep crafting extras

[ashen anchor]

if i grab his melee can i jam other players guns too?

[tough pawn]

i stockpiled so much whiskey during christmas just to not even buy my 3rd thicc

[quartz thicket]

i think its unlootable, like tagillas hammer

[tough pawn]

you can loot kollontay's baton but it doesn't make other players weapons jam, even though it should

[quartz thicket]

Oh you even need one for a quest, yeah lol

[ashen anchor]

yea i already have a couple

[shy thorn]

i am confused bossman

first time fitting a 0 plate rig

i fit some sprtn ceramic 40 hitpoint ones

[cyan coral]

anyone know what the cultist spawn rates are rn and the best way to "farm" them?

[jovial cobalt]

around 25% bit higher or lower depending on the map

like i think they're 30% on woods maybe
but also fuck woods and most everyone looks for them on customs because they spawn around the stronghold

and if they arent there you can take flare extract and make it pretty quick or something

[edgy cipher]

0 error?

Cultists have been super easy to spot laying on snow on customs

[wintry cobalt]

the 6h timer on cultist circle is broken

like 2x in a row i get random assortment of shit instead of yk

quest items

[edgy cipher]

I run into them heaps on woods, a bit harder because of the grass. Cultists behavior will generally not engage you with their guns until you shoot at them, getting close they generally attempt to swing their knives first. The moment you shoot them, they become a hornets nest and will engage you up to about 60m at range in the dark.

You are generally safe to walk near them, but if you get within about 15m, they'll start coming at you with their knife. If they are chasing you with the knife, you can keep running and they should leash back to where he was camping and shouldn't shoot you until you stir them up.

Identify all their positions before you start to fight them and then work fast to take out what you can after you start the engagement. Then you need to move around carefully baiting them to come to you or reveal their positions. Customs is always the easiest for this as you have plenty of cover and they lack foilage to hide in. Get up into the top of the fortress to look down around the area, throw grenades to make the reposition to help find them.

[digital dune]

Eh cultists have yet to kill me on woods, they got a better chance on customs. They are pretty much always in the same spot on woods and they only thing they have to hide behind is trees which doesn't really give them a lot to hide behind.

do less pmcs spawn in night factory or something?

[civic orbit]

Literally running factory right now on night and I feel that

[orchid raptor]

oooo what for?

im running it for that ragman quest that has you get 5 boss kills while wearing goon gear

i thought i might as well run night factory for the 2% chance of cultists

and i have seen 1 maybe 2 pmcs in my runs

[civic orbit]

Im trying to get pms kills in the office area 😭💀

[indigo void]

small 500kb launcher update i wonder what that is

[slate stump]

How did everyone enjoy that stat squish for the attachments?

[orchid raptor]

doesnt really bother me since running meta's kinda gay

[slate stump]

It made all builds a little bit worse

[civic orbit]

Run Tagillas hideout on Interchange

[orchid raptor]

i think they shouldve just made them roughly equal and shit

if their goal was to make players make builds for the "cool" factor, and not the meta making everything worse is not the move

[hoary stag]

yeah, they could have just upped the lowers and keep the high stats, I mean ergo nerf across the board, recoil nerf, some former superior parts are now inferior... like wtf, they dont have much sense

I mean 1 grip has ergo x, the same grip with yellow tape has ergo x-1... srsly?

the tape is actually something to get better grip = ergo... lmao

[leaden relic]

Gunsmith 3 .....hmm reset account BTW, but with the new changes, i'm finding it hard to complete it. Gigabeef vid not working now ? any ideas please

[hoary stag]

no idea, will take a while until wiki is updated i guess

I'm glad i am only missing the last gunsmith so far

[leaden relic]

lots of new build vids I guess are on the way lol....get cracking Streamers

[worthy otter]

Post your build in screenshots

[hoary stag]

yeah, especially for gunsmith, i guess there has to be done "a bit"

ok, professional help just arrived, no need for the wiki ^^

[leaden relic]

There now buddy

Says under 4 KG too...that build is over 🙁

[worthy otter]

Too much recoil

Can lower the weight by taking off the useless flashlight and rail

[orchid raptor]

AI pmc had 3 60 rounders of ppbs wtf

[leaden relic]

Yeah, it's a weird build alright....tried everything no

[orchid raptor]

i didnt even know they can drop that

dont mind if i do

[broken fable]

Rare for pmcs to have high pen ammo

But a delightful loot to get

Haven’t encountered a pmc packing M995s only M856A1s and M855A1s on rare occasions

Funny that farming tagilla’s ac6 plates is more convenient on interchange than factory

[orchid raptor]

i dont bother with his plates ngl i do not like heavy plates

[raw nest]

It's rare but it feels great to find

[slate stump]

They made them roughly equal now but all bad inatead of buffing the bad ones

The svd just lost like 20+ ergo for no reason

Right after they buffed the svd lol

So now its on the old pre buff ergo level

[broken fable]

I’m thankful for his plates, save my ass on multiple occasions

[slate stump]

When it comes to plates you guys need to buy the ones for ram sticks while its still possible

Lv 6 for the front and 5 for the back plate and ur good

[broken fable]

I always buy gpus from mechanic with the ram sticks for the bitcoin farm

[slate stump]

Its the higher quality ultra lights

Get them while you can

[soft hare]

Wiki is updated for Gunsmith

[drifting raven]

does anyone have a method for return the favor, been stuck on this quest for 20 raids with 0 kills

[soft hare]

Wait at the marked bunker till max. 15min are over then reset

There's a more or less common patrol there

[slate stump]

marked bunker was also my way to do it when they expanded it back then

i had like 2 kills in 20+ raids before that

[drifting raven]

yeah i have been doing that pretty much for all of my raids with no luck, should i stay on the inside or outside?

[leaden relic]

So both Airwingman & Giga are saying to change the buttstock in their vids....keep the original 1 on it now, handed it in. Thanks for the help anyway.

[soft hare]

The wiki will always be the most up to date

Streamers never delete old shit

[cyan cloak]

I've found 4 marked keys but 0 labs access keycards in around 200 hours. Is that normal? I have nearly every key and keycards for labs but I can't get in lol

[slate stump]

yeah wiki people are doing magic

[soft hare]

Wait on top of the bunker. They'll come

[drifting raven]

ok will try that next

[hoary stag]

purrrfect 👌 💯 👍

[slate stump]

back then we were really fast with the btr quest and one of the few players that didnt glitch out the questline and when we got to the yellow flare area, the info on wiki wasnt accurate, i said that here in chat, within seconds a wiki guy saw it, went into a map 3d viewer or something to check the flare hitbox and updated the wiki the same evening

since that day i stopped doubting the wiki lol

[soft hare]

We're doing our best to keep things updated as soon as possible but we also have real jobs

We're definitely faster than any YouTube video tho

Wiki can be changed in seconds if we have the info

[slate stump]

oh i didnt mention he gave me the hitbox info with screenshots within minutes, the wiki was just updated later

[hoary stag]

oh, i didn't doubt them, been a long time with tarkov and wiki was and still is the one page, that makes tarkov a lot less a pita

[worthy otter]

Yeah because yesterday there was an update that changed how much attachments affect stats now

[slate stump]

it made all guns worse lol

my beloved svd is in its old state again

[raw nest]

Personally I think it was needed

[soft hare]

Gunsmith 3 wasn't affected, those videos are outdated for way longer

[slate stump]

giving the svd like 20 more ergo was needed, then they took it away again with this patch

it was needed to bring the attachments on a more even level but not nerf all the good ones to shit

[worthy otter]

Gunsmith 3 is often people thinking it is incorrect because they don’t see the required for task checkmark right?

So instead of actually checking if they can hand it in they just assume they can’t

[slate stump]

which one was gunsmith 3 again?

[worthy otter]

MP5SD

[soft hare]

I recently added an extra note for that to the wiki actually...

[slate stump]

wasnt that one tricky to do anyway for low lv players?

because they had to rebuild a normal mp5 or something

[hoary stag]

i actually never watched the videos from gunsmith, i just use the shopping list, look for possible details, assemble it and hand it in

[soft hare]

This person wikis

[hoary stag]

sometimes you forget that unload the ammo fom the mag, or unload the mag itself

[slate stump]

this wipe i built most with just reading the text in the quest description

i wanted to know what a player has to do that doesnt rely on wiki

tbf if you have a lot of playtime, especially with modding, you kinda already know what you need when you read the text

[vernal spindle]

Hows everyone finding the update so far?

[slate stump]

but as a new player i cant imagine doing it like that

[hoary stag]

but its for me a lot easier to just use the detailed shopping list in the wiki then watching videos, then stop, forward, backward... no thx

[raw nest]

I like it, running more military specd weapons

[slate stump]

what else is there except weapon mods?

[worthy otter]

For gunsmith I just open the wiki and make what gun is there and then hand it in

[vale atlas]

I did that up until one of them just didn't work lol. Thats when i moved on to the latest videos for them

[slate stump]

overall the patch wasnt too bad

look at the guns i have been running lately anyway lmao #screenshots message

bit more immersive

its a way more viable "build" anyway now :^)

[vernal spindle]

Dlss4.5 is aparently added, no idea how that differs from the old one

[raw nest]

Gigabeef did a video on it

[dawn echo]

new meta gun attachments are absolutely ugli af

bsg really fked this one up

[slate stump]

4.5 is more smooth but you could override it with the nvidia app to 4.5 before so nothing new akshualy

[proud oak]

so there is meta already?

[dawn echo]

just the best stats ones

gotta use that ugli ergo pistol grip and RK-2 or DD mlok now

[vernal spindle]

So its probably negligable difference?

[dawn echo]

as well as the ace somod something stock

[worthy otter]

Yeah PKM is meta now

[proud oak]

which pistoil grip is meta now?

[slate stump]

no 4.5 actually looks a lot better

[dawn echo]

the ergo

[proud oak]

psg?

[gloomy widget]

yeah

[dawn echo]

yes

all my guns are so fking ugly now i kidna just wanna uninstall tbh

[proud oak]

that was meta before but you cant put that on some guns

[slate stump]

26 ergo pkm and 28 ergo svd, they need to go over that one again lmao

[gloomy widget]

I stick to the F1 St2 or however its called, very slightly worse but looks miles better than Ergo

[orchid raptor]

ll4 jaeger fuck yes

[dawn echo]

i might do that as well

but the ace socom gen 4 looks so fking bad

[gloomy widget]

these 0,x values wont make that much difference

[slate stump]

but if you dont have that 0.2 ergo you could die

[vernal spindle]

0 ergo m4 with 7 recoil tho

[gloomy widget]

at least I will die with more style

[slate stump]

the LMG mag buff worked fine for the pkm but for the modernized RPD its just the same again lol

the mag sucks less ergo off the gun now but the attachments give less ergo so its still around 20 lol

bug talk slap

[worthy otter]

Exploit talk*

[slate stump]

learned something new today

[orchid raptor]

i didnt know that was against the rules, ive seen people talk about it

[worthy otter]

Read rule 3

[orchid raptor]

ohhh i thought it was just a bug, my bad

[slate stump]

does it at least mute those alarms for free?

[proud oak]

what?

[slate stump]

it would be nice to get a task ingame that gives you a token to make one of the buyable ammo types from traders way more available permanently

[indigo void]

Yoooo server is NOT in good condition rn, 15:00 estimated raid matchmaking time?????

[raw nest]

close the game, something went wrong. Should take 3min tops

[proud oak]

if you could buy ammo with IRL money bsg would be millionaires

[slate stump]

i would buy all the HP ammo

[civic orbit]

Just survived my first solo labyrinth run.😭🙏

[proud oak]

idk what the pricing would be

1000 pieces for 10 dolla

and you couldnt flea that ammo

also it oculd be persistent thru wipes

[jagged girder]

wierd question but i cant find kiba inner key on flea did they remove it?

[onyx depot]

there's only 1 available

now there's none available

[echo barn]

hehehe I have one

what if I put it for 50 million

who would complain?

[slate stump]

you need to go in there?

[echo barn]

if he does I suppose he has the outer door key too

[proud oak]

no its rare

and i suppose expensive

[echo barn]

not that expensive

[proud oak]

there is a barter for it as far as i know

[jagged girder]

okay

[slate stump]

i can open it for you if you wanna loot it

[jagged girder]

my friend is verry poor i just want him go tes sum plates

[jagged girder]

nah im good

[proud oak]

did they buff it?

[slate stump]

get him plates for RAM

[slate stump]

no its not even close to the efficiency of ram plates

[proud oak]

yea last time i went there it was bad

[slate stump]

just loot anything, sell that shet, buy ram and get plates for it

they are the best plates weight/dura wise in the game rn and too many people are missing that barter

who knows how long that ram barter will last

people dont realize that the ultralight lv 6 plate can take almost 50% more dmg than lv 6 steel or ceramics for example

[echo barn]

whats the ram plate

[slate stump]

barter for ram

[proud oak]

level 6 gacass

i think

[echo barn]

its lvl 5 ram trade from ragman rigth?

[slate stump]

even if you can only buy the lv 5 ultra light it will stop more bullets than a lv 6 steel if its not 50+ pen which almost no ai uses

[slate stump]

5 and 6, get both

6 in the front and 5 in the back

[echo barn]

only have the 5 available but damn not even 1 kg

[slate stump]

yeah and it will take more low pen rounds than a lv 6 steel or ceramic

[onyx depot]

sell you one for cheap cheap?

Or perhaps?
#screenshots message

[slate stump]

why so many cult thermites lol

[marble bronze]

Don't really see a need for T6 in PvE. I just run the T5 GaC plates that you can magically repair/replicate in the hideout.

[onyx depot]

Coz tagilla keeps getting in my way

[slate stump]

oh and they repair better than all other material btw

[slate stump]

factory must be your favourite map then

sadly combined material and titanium repairs kinda bad

[onyx depot]

i barely play factory.. just many hours of collecting

[slate stump]

are those dedicated tagilla plate boxes you just dont use?

[onyx depot]

i keep them as a backup incase someone needs

[slate stump]

i hope ur stockpiling some of those sweet ram plates too

[jagged girder]

nah im good

[onyx depot]

not really.. dont like anything below 50hp

[slate stump]

thats not how plate hp works

[onyx depot]

i replace plates when theyre under 50

[slate stump]

they have a true dura of 144

cult thermite 146 i think

[onyx depot]

i have too many, this is just what i keep in the boxes

[slate stump]

lemme check again to make sure

oh numbers have been changed

nvm i fatfingered something lol

[gusty whale]

The number in game means nothing

Like literally nothing

[slate stump]

termite is 157 dura and 4sss2 is 148

[gusty whale]

^

[slate stump]

on the other hand termite loses like 3 or 5 dura per repair and 4sss2 is more like 0.3-0.5

[gusty whale]

4sss is 4th highest durability plate in the game

[slate stump]

so if you are going for durability then plastic plates are the only option

[gusty whale]

3rd if you ignore the airsoft level 1 plate being 1st

[slate stump]

its wild to see how this is still not common knowledge even tho its so important lol

way more important than a good weapon build

[slate stump]

my meta plate

[gusty whale]

Ye still can't believe they put the best t5 and t6 plates on ragman

[slate stump]

i cant believe they put them on ragman almost for free and people still run shit

i mean they dont know better most of the time but still

[ashen anchor]

should i wait for cultists to spawn on customs or should i leave if they are not there?

[onyx depot]

why does it mean nothing?

[slate stump]

leave

[slate stump]

its a useless number

the worse plastic plates with 45 dura have more durability overall than the 50 and 60 non plastic plates

[ashen anchor]

how rare are they i havent seen them in 4 raids and do they mainly spawn near fortress?

[slate stump]

they can hide too but they have voice lines too now

and i think 30%

not sure

[slate stump]

https://tarkovgunsmith.com/ballistics_simulator this is a good tool to play around with

it shows you how plates actually work and that nothing you see ingame is an indicator of how good a plate is

[distant obsidian]

LOL RIGHT??

[ashen anchor]

i am checking Fortress and Industrial then leave/repeat should i check any other places for Cultists on Customs?

[slate stump]

yeah i talked to a guy in another discord and he also said he rather runs termite or KA steel instead of ultra lights because they are shit

the plate placebo is real

[slate stump]

#screenshots message quick example

[distant obsidian]

Insane.

[slate stump]

33% more on the plate that has 45 dura compared to a 60 dura plate

[distant obsidian]

I've had a few people here say they don't even look at the stats of a gun when building. Like wut

[slate stump]

#screenshots message look at my beauty

i built it for fun before the stat squish update and it had rly bad stats, now its not too far behind a really good ak build lmao

[clever thunder]

For pve you truly don't need to care about the stats of your gun.

[slate stump]

truly is the wrong word mate

[distant obsidian]

Perfection haha

[slate stump]

you can choose to ignore your gun stats but its more likely to whiff a shot against something you shouldnt

[distant obsidian]

If you say so lol.

[slate stump]

i actually died to tagilla because of this gun lmao

[distant obsidian]

Haha I believe it

[slate stump]

it has almost 100 recoil

[distant obsidian]

Yikes

[scenic sundial]

hey guys i am having an issue with the launcher after playing 10 days of pve it shows me an error now that does not want to go away, and sometimes it does go away and the profile does not load, or it crashes after one raid, anyone knows why ?

[distant obsidian]

#community-support

[fiery musk]

So I just lost connection in a streets of tarkov raid and when the game finally got back to the main menu it treated it as a death... is that normal? or did I just get "unlucky" and someething killed me in the time it took

[clever thunder]

I've escaped twice, savior and debtor endings. Caring about your stats on your guns is nothing more than you min maxing something that doesn't need to be done if you don't want to.

[distant obsidian]

You died while DCed

[ashen anchor]

yup that map is garbage happened to me too... you most likely got shot by a scav

[fiery musk]

wack... ty for the answer though

[slate stump]

play with a buddy who can cover you

[fiery musk]

I normally do, but they have jobs and are in diff timezone so I'm solo for the next 10ish hours

probably gonna play something else, that's really disappointing

[slate stump]

if ur EU i can come along on streets for a raid

[slate stump]

^

[gusty reef]

Nothing kills my motivation more than a streets DC

[amber sigil]

When I sell stuff to ref i get a little more then when i sell to mechanic. why does my friend get the same from ref then mechanic?

like if i sell a m4 to mechanic for 233k but to ref for 258k he only gets 233 from both

[indigo knoll]

what's the fastest way to finish calibration? Reserve sniping?

[amber sigil]

yeah definetly

[mighty coral]

Guys, How long does the terminal loading usually take?

[onyx depot]

#screenshots message

explain?

[amber sigil]

It's a visual bug

[mild star]

have boss spawns been turned up? Been running into em basically every raid

[wary seal]

REMBLO WHAAAAAT

[slate stump]

i know its forgotten and secret techniques

[marble bronze]

Most of them are 75%

[wary seal]

no no i missed you buddy pal friend

it’s been so long holy slow mode

[slate stump]

i have no clue who you are lol

[wary seal]

exactly

the one you always called a succubus

[slate stump]

oh that guy

[wary seal]

yeah

[slate stump]

nice

[wary seal]

dang no i missed you too

[stoic star]

can you transit right after you spawn or still have to wait a bit for The Guide?

not including the transit cooldown itself

[smoky scaffold]

hit 60M roubles

dorms marked has been crazy as fuck for me

[gusty whale]

Not a fan of marked keys atm, don't seem worth running

[smoky scaffold]

i’ve already filled a single money case

i don’t even have med station unlocked bro

[dawn echo]

bros how is new peep gonna survive now if they just bought the game with goons spawning almost every game on the 4 maps

[mossy blade]

.

[gusty whale]

Tbf on most maps goons are very easy to avoid

[dawn echo]

for a new peep just bought the game

[smoky scaffold]

just kill them

[dawn echo]

again, for a new peep just bought the game

[smoky scaffold]

yeah

[gusty whale]

Eh, I get its rough if you don't know where they spawn yet, but that's also very much on you

Tarkov ain't a friendly game

[mossy blade]

thank god 6 more bitcoins and im done with this part of the ticket

[acoustic sandal]

Crtl+LMB what did? On raid
For example on body armour

[raw nest]

Are you asking which keybind is quick equip? or what the one you provided does?

[acoustic sandal]

second case

[rancid lion]

shadow of tagilla has a LOT of hp

[raw nest]

ctrl + left click is going to move item into your equipment if you have space for it

[acoustic sandal]

Hmmm

[short flume]

goonstracker people will report their location. they rotate maps so just go to whatever map theyre not reported to be on

[indigo knoll]

MAI AP is prob my fav labyrinth ammo it drops them so fast

[hard cloud]

ALT + LMB will equip item if the slot is empty

[rancid lion]

i gave him 890 hp dmg and 1380 armor dmg. he didn't seem to mind

[indigo knoll]

run high AP ammo and just aim for the head dont bother with chest shots

[rancid lion]

i did with ash 12 ps12b

will try m61 mdr next time

once upon a time the ash melted him

[acoustic sandal]

My friendo click it this on raid and armour was disappeared

He made this key combination in his backpack

And after the raid, there was no report of insurance

[gusty whale]

Ps12B doesn't have enough pen sadly, m61 works way better

[smoky scaffold]

even m995 took me many shots

[sturdy grove]

yeah i take a risk to use 2 sap ap magazines one for minitaur tagilla and the other on vengeful killa in labyrytnh

[smoky scaffold]

m993*

[rancid lion]

as i said, it USED to work on him

[gusty whale]

Yeah, defo worse ammo, but good enough, and not valuable enough to care if you lose it

[raw nest]

ssa ap has only 35 dmg compared to m995 that has 40

[gusty whale]

Ps12B has never been good for shadow of tagilla

Its fantastic against regular tagilla though

[rancid lion]

that's how i killed him since the labrys was added

only recently did it fail me

[gusty whale]

I mean you can kill him with anything, RIP was very popular when labyrinth came out, doesn't mean its actually good

[rancid lion]

i did miss 1 shot of the 20

he's a big target

[latent void]

Hey folks for the "They are already here" Chapter at the end. I need to press the button under the table first, then grab the flash drive right? Or else im fucked?

[rancid lion]

according to yt, yes

not done it personally

[gusty whale]

Yeah ash12 is quite punishing with its fire rate. Takes 7 headshots to have >95% chance of killing shadow of tagilla vs 3 headshots with M61

[gusty whale]

Think so, unless they changed something, check a guide before you do anything

[rancid lion]

i have a lot more m80a1 than m61. maybe that'll get him.

[gusty whale]

M80a1 is very good too

1 extra shot for >95% chance of kill

[rancid lion]

lmao i called myself a d!psh!t and got a spanking

was saying i wasted all my m61 i collected

[gusty whale]

I should use m61 since I have 4x as much as m80a1, but can't bring myself to use a FIR only ammo

[rancid lion]

i believe in u

[latent void]

I am definitely hoarding my M80A1 and M61, I get nervous using it lol. I feel you @gusty whale

[gusty whale]

Btw ssa ap is technically slightly better than m995 against shadow of tagilla assuming headshots only. But its literally 94% chance to kill in 6 HS with 995 vs 99.8% with ssa ap, ie virtually 0 real difference

[rancid lion]

i think it would be neat if u could parry in melee. put the fear in his ass

[gusty whale]

Ngl would be cool if they added a perfect parry mechanic

[rancid lion]

[gusty whale]

Imagine running factory naked on wipe hunting tagilla

[indigo knoll]

my dark souls and space marine 2 having ass would be hunting tagilla with a hatchet while playing king von

a parry would be hilarious lmao

[manic pewter]

If you wont use it, why keep it?

[gusty whale]

I'm a hoarder, plus more effort to get rid of it than keep it

[manic pewter]

Yeah, i get the incentive to keep it, but at some point you just have to use it

Labrys or terminal are those two places

[gusty whale]

Maybe when I'm at 20 or so thicc cases of ammo cases I'll consider it

[manic pewter]

Like, only reason I use igolnik or BS ammo is because of Killa

[gusty whale]

Tbf if you could revisit terminal it'd be a good way to dump it, alas you can not

[gusty whale]

Hmm ppbs is actually quite good against SoT, didn't realise

[indigo knoll]

i wish you could bring home black division armor

i heard once you can maybe get BD gear and armor thru scav case is that true?

[manic pewter]

I intend to use 9x39 BP against Shagilla

[gusty whale]

Yeah

[indigo knoll]

peak

i need to construct scav case but i still need gold chains, im thinking customs runs for safes would be the best bet maybe?

[gusty whale]

Ye, it seems solid, 5 HS to kill, sp6 is also OK, only 6HS

[gusty whale]

Not sure you can still get it

[manic pewter]

Yeah SP6 you can straight up just buy i believe

[gusty whale]

You 100% could, but idk now

[indigo knoll]

ig we'll have to find out

[gusty whale]

After capturing outposts I think, yeah
