[forest patio]

should i be expecting an all out battle with cultists. im bring an rpd and three 100 rounders

[hazy moss]

key tools have doubled in price (i wonder why)

[vale atlas]

Overkill, cultists are pretty easy

[marble bronze]

Seems excessive

[hazy moss]

500 up to 1 mil

[manic lance]

anyone see goons?

[vale atlas]

Finding them is the hard part, they dont wear helmets, just shoot them in the face with any ammo

[hazy moss]

can genuinely kill them with a glock with rip

[forest patio]

ive gotten through every mag each run

[sturdy beacon]

now that is odd

like i get it but DOUBLE??

[hazy moss]

docs cases are also probably inflated now

[fervent peak]

2 60 rounders of 56a1 in an M4 is enough, with another 2 for the masses

[marble bronze]

Need to work on your aim then

[vale atlas]

You're seeing inflation live

[marble bronze]

It's like, 4 dudes

[sturdy beacon]

yeah they just not that hard to get ngl..

[sturdy beacon]

i mean they have good armor and more hp, can def take more ammo lol

[forest patio]

i say my aims fine with 20 kills

[hazy moss]

youd think with the influx of marked keys the price of those items would drop down

[vale atlas]

They wear good armour, but no helmet. facetap is nice and quick

[marble bronze]

So shoot em in the face

[vale atlas]

More money to spend = more money available to ask for

[hazy moss]

just dont panic when you find them

[wintry cobalt]

cultists pls bsg

[sturdy beacon]

they have face armor sometimes but okay..

[dreamy lotus]

how do i find the cases

[sturdy beacon]

we just acting like that not real ig

[hazy moss]

only on the boss with the ryst

[vale atlas]

Plus everyones buying them all up, only the expensive ones survive lol

[fervent peak]

Just mag dump at the end of the day with 40+ pen ammo

[hazy moss]

im not complaining, makes me richer

[vale atlas]

its level 3, c'mon lol

[sturdy beacon]

cultists spawn with death shadows all the time, legit have clips of it

[wintry cobalt]

correct

[vale atlas]

it may as well not be 😛

[sturdy beacon]

ay the cqcm used to be lv4 that no joke, im just saying dont act like a ass :)

[dreamy lotus]

how do i find the cases

[vale atlas]

Its still a, just shoot them in the face moment

[marble bronze]

7.62PS will go straight thru. That practically isn't armor

[vale atlas]

Gotta kill that reflexive smiley shit

[shy thorn]

dawg just shoot red flares in the sky

[sturdy beacon]

this whole game is that, what is your point lol

[dreamy lotus]

ok but i havent found a single flare

[elder tartan]

Unlock 10 of them and hope you get possibly 1 contraband case. sigh

[sturdy beacon]

literally everything in this game in pve can be boiled down to "shoot them in the face with ssa ap"

[vale atlas]

I dont understand why you're fighting me, all i said was shoot them in the face lmao

[marble bronze]

To just shoot em in the face.

[shy thorn]

chat i want to try out night raids, what nvg to get and how to equip it , if anyone can help

[marble bronze]

SSA AP is for noobs

[sturdy beacon]

everyone knows that, im just saying stop saying obvious shit lol

[wintry cobalt]

almost 2 hours without cultists lol

[dusty cove]

Just finished the in-game survey and received the reward, however the reward items were not FIR, anyone got the same issue?

[sturdy beacon]

and? it still works on lv6 lol

[stone goblet]

not all of them are FIR

[sturdy beacon]

as you said "shoot them in the face"

[marble bronze]

Now you're just trolling.

[vale atlas]

And we're the ones being an ass? bro

[sturdy beacon]

ive been trolling this whole time lmao

[marble bronze]

Bye Felicia

[sturdy beacon]

👋 '

[dusty cove]

Got it, I just need one smoked chimney cleaner to level up the hideout and received one from the survey but not FIR, fuck me dead.

[sturdy beacon]

lol yeah shits fucked up a lil

[marsh wing]

i now have 55 empty rows

[shy pollen]

Found a G28 off a smuggler

[marsh wing]

ima go do smuggler questline now

[forest patio]

yeah i got two g28s and two lonestars off smugglers

[vale atlas]

Fuck yes i finally got my 40m shturman headshot lmao

Sat on top of knight thinking he's hot shit

now i can put away this fuckin tac30

[nimble drift]

locked weapons crate dorms marked just incase anyones lookin still

[livid sleet]

i am back, and safe to say i killed some cultists and got a 314 marked key and come key cards, ty for the help and encouragement earlier !!

[shy pollen]

I love some early game daily’s that are “kill killa twice” no jaeger

[marsh wing]

ICEBREAKER

[sturdy beacon]

from what i understand its marked rooms, airdrops, and the wiki says cultists but i havent seen that yet?

[fathom tendon]

fr

[marsh wing]

its a map for Arena

[stone goblet]

the in progress rework of airpit

[marsh wing]

armpit?

hairpit?

[wintry cobalt]

😋

[forest patio]

still trying to find cultists to even GO TO marked rooms

[marsh wing]

#screenshots message
Just sold 1 of each Marked key from cultists

[sturdy beacon]

arena would be 10000% cooler if it didnt take forever to match and if 75% of the maps didnt suck

[ebon jewel]

Is the new boss event live on PvE?

[wintry cobalt]

i have also not had luck in the last 2 hours

[sturdy beacon]

ja

[forest patio]

here comes the bragging about money again

[marsh wing]

im buying a 2nd money case guys

[forest patio]

we dont care

[wintry cobalt]

im on like 67 million roubles i dont even want to sell the small collection i have of keys

[nimble drift]

Night factory throw nade if theres scavs reset if its pmcs and quiet theyre laying down around the map find and kill em

[marsh wing]

at least obama care

[wintry cobalt]

inb4 someone says "ive seen scavs and cultists!!!!11!'

[livid sleet]

so if theres scavs then there isnt cultists? or. .

[golden widget]

Obama only cared cuz he wanted your moms phone number

[golden widget]

correct

[tough pawn]

that guy is so full of shit scavs and cultists can spawn

[wintry cobalt]

youre so fucking stupid

no they cant

[sturdy beacon]

i dont think he is bragging, if he is there wouldnt be a point cause everyone understands how easy it is to stack money in pve

[tough pawn]

yes they fucking can 💔

[hazy moss]

they can both spawn but if its quiet thats how you know the cultists are up

[livid sleet]

i only asked bc in my factory raid just now, i only had pmcs and cultists so

[golden widget]

every time ive been on night factory, when theres scavs, theres no cultists. When theres no scavs, youll know because it will super quiet

[wintry cobalt]

no they cant ive literally never seen it happen 🥀

[tough pawn]

well, cultists can spawn later if scavs spawn at the start of raid

[sturdy beacon]

????

[livid oxide]

Priest just laying there staring at me for an easy kill

[wintry cobalt]

yes but were talking start of raid genius

[livid sleet]

the priest is the one with the hood right?

[livid oxide]

yea

[wintry cobalt]

ye

[golden widget]

yes

[livid sleet]

thank you :3

[sturdy beacon]

how do cultist spawns work bro i legit just think no one knows but you just say shit lol

[marsh wing]

bro if i could sell a key for 150k usd irl, i would

[wintry cobalt]

scavs can spawn on the map if cultists spawned, if you throw a grenade start of the raid and you dont hear scavs, the cultists are probably there

[shy pollen]

Do the cultists have a certain level they appear (like do you have to be a certain level for them to spawn)

[livid oxide]

Zhrec, a non-believer of god

[sturdy beacon]

ive heard 6 different ways for it to go by now

[marsh wing]

false

[livid sleet]

yeah i did this, i threw a nade, and then two cultist came runnin up to me

[tough pawn]

only on ground zero

[forest patio]

do weapons not level passed 3

[wintry cobalt]

even better most of the time i have to find them myself!

[shy pollen]

Mkay!!

[wintry cobalt]

fuck me tho where are these guys ive done at least 15 raids in the last two hours

[livid sleet]

one of the pmcs killed the priest for me, i swear i heard another lay down but i checked everywhere and couldnt find him so im unsure

[livid oxide]

gotta search for priest everywhere. he's laying down somewhere

[shy pollen]

OH YEHAHH TARBANK KEYYY

[marsh wing]

same reaction i had when i got old house depot key yesterday

[slate rampart]

are you running factory? thats an awful amount of time for 15 raids

[wintry cobalt]

yeah i wasnt counting lol

[shy pollen]

I just realized I GOTTA GET PEVEL 25 AGAIN NOOO

[short flume]

if you see a lot of scavs, very very very likely they didnt spawn

[nimble drift]

traditionally yes

On factory specifically because cultists take up the normal scav spawns

[wintry cobalt]

even one most most most likely means no cultists

[nimble drift]

ermmm liar liar pants on fire!!!

[slate rampart]

Theres a screenshot that scavs and cultists spawn

[wintry cobalt]

also sometimes the game takes forever to load out to the menu

[wintry cobalt]

they can spawn same raid but not at the same time

[marsh wing]

i know, thats why i was hyped

[nimble drift]

Yes buddy we all know they eventually spawn

[sturdy beacon]

tarbank during the hardcore wipe was wild lol

[wintry cobalt]

ive found the cultists like 8-9 times and i have not had a scav present on the entire map when theyve spawned

[forest patio]

tf is hardcore

[wintry cobalt]

the scavs and cultists can both spawn later on in the raid if the other spawned but if one spawned start of raid the other didnt

[nimble drift]

Probably one sektant alive hiding in a corner blocking them from spawning LOL

[livid wadi]

hey we got no other bosses on any other map at the moment with the event?

[nimble drift]

partisan and goons still roaming

[sturdy beacon]

nunya

[marsh wing]

who has a M4A1 build?

[livid wadi]

i need sturman on woods, he not gonna be there ?

[marsh wing]

nope. on reserve

[sturdy beacon]

should be

[wintry cobalt]

ive seen partisan like twice in the last 2 months ngl

[marsh wing]

no, he is on reserve

[little willow]

❌ every scav boss in reserve rn

[sturdy beacon]

really? they are NOT on the home map at all?

[little willow]

nope why do you think we're running night factory 24/7

[wintry cobalt]

scav bosses are all on reserve

[sturdy beacon]

wow, a bit wild lol

[livid wadi]

so i don't think i can complete hunting trip on reserve though

[little willow]

[sturdy beacon]

cause tagilla isnt scary?

[marsh wing]

it works

[nimble drift]

Gotta make him come after you by hiding in high loot places for 2-3 minutes 🙏

[livid wadi]

even if i bop sturmi with the right gun

[marsh wing]

tagilla doesnt spawn on factory right now

[wintry cobalt]

he has nothing for me so i dont care enough

[livid wadi]

quest is blocked when looking at active quests on reserve

[nimble drift]

achievment 🤤

[wintry cobalt]

bsg UI

[marsh wing]

yeah it says that, but it works

[little willow]

he can be annoying, but besides the 33% cultist spawn chance replacing the initial scav spawn wave, night factory is soo free for marked keys rn

[livid wadi]

for real?

[marsh wing]

mine went up after my shturman died on reserve

trust me. But you also have to deal with every other boss

[livid wadi]

ok im loading in... pity m700 is so shit

[sturdy beacon]

i get that, im saying the reason i thought everyone was running factory was cause rates for cultists were up, i didnt know about the bosses

[vale atlas]

Oh shit this might be a good moment to get my dorms pmc kills

[sturdy beacon]

well knew that they WERE reserve, just figured they were on both maps lol

[livid wadi]

i am loving otherwise banking 40k xp each reserve raid just bopping heads from domes

[sturdy beacon]

cause now streets is easy as hell lol

[wintry cobalt]

i mustve done way more than 15 raids each raid takes me like 2-3 minutes since the cultists are nowhere to be found

[sturdy beacon]

yeah ive just been running out if there was a bunch of scavs, bummer tho lol

[wintry cobalt]

i just get two headshots and tap bodies for xp and then run out

[sturdy beacon]

yep

[sturdy grove]

go to factory at night

[wintry cobalt]

really?!

[sturdy beacon]

...

[sturdy grove]

take advantage as tagilla is not here

[wintry cobalt]

this fucking server man

[sturdy beacon]

im sick of you yo

[livid wadi]

so no kaban on streets right now? does that mean lexos is free

[wintry cobalt]

im legit just waiting for my plug with these factory raids

[sturdy beacon]

swear its AI

[wintry cobalt]

atp im just using this "farming cultists" to pass the time faster

[sturdy beacon]

yeah at least factory is quick as hell tho

[spiral pecan]

atleast the short proves bsg knows that the FCPC is pure drip

[sturdy beacon]

want music but cultist so quiet

[spiral pecan]

we NEED it

[livid wadi]

factory cultist chance is what

[sturdy beacon]

i wish the gold squad shit didnt look trash lol, thank god im bear

[wintry cobalt]

0 apparently xd

[livid wadi]

yeah 0 doesn't sound farmable

[wintry cobalt]

according to "sources" its at 33%, but ive gone now over 2 hours without them spawning

[shy pollen]

Bad luck, I’ll do a couple runs and tell ya

[wintry cobalt]

please dont ill cry once you get them 4x in a row

[livid wadi]

never seen the cultists myself, how good

[sturdy beacon]

ive done like 7 and nada to be fair

[shy pollen]

I’m not THAT lucky

[sturdy beacon]

but 7 isnt alot

[marsh wing]

any reason not to use the jailbrake?

[livid wadi]

where do they spawn on factory

[wintry cobalt]

youre not that lucky but im not lucky at all!

[shy pollen]

I mean I got like rusted like 20-25 times in two weeks

[light root]

Done 10 raids, 1 cultist spawn

not sold it's 33% lol
lots of people going like 15 raids straight without them, which is pretty wild mathematically

[round orbit]

Does Priest nade himself every time he's cornered or is it just sometimes? I've ran into him twice on NF and he did it both times

[sturdy beacon]

iirc its almost every time

[round orbit]

I need one more Priest kill and I feel like I'm better off trying to find him on SL or Woods for that

[sturdy beacon]

i feel you bro

[livid wadi]

factory spawn is where........

[shy pollen]

Customs prob

[light root]

2 airfilters from factory runs is dope tho

[sturdy beacon]

im legit just here for the priest kill

[wintry cobalt]

my cultist rate went up to decent numbers earlier today, but ever since its been awful

[shy pollen]

Well wish me luck

[wintry cobalt]

i had like 8 spawns in 45, and then ive gotten one in like well over 20 raids by now

id run customs for the cultists but this is so much faster and i dont have to wait for 22:00-05:00

granted id probably maybe have more luck on customs ngl

i think between going into raids is like 5 minutes for me atp and god damn

ive done god knows how many raid at this point

[shy pollen]

No scavs?

[sturdy beacon]

only 2 scavs this raid what if..

[light root]

not too upset if i dont get cultists, still case farming so

not a total loss

[wintry cobalt]

i have 20 cases and no keys so i stopped bothering with them

[slate rampart]

from my experience atleast , muzzle flash is too horrid if you're not using LPVOs

[light root]

gotta turn in 10 for quest, then gotta turn in 10 things they have a low chance of dropping

so keep collecting lol

[wintry cobalt]

yeah yeah but ill get to it when i get to it

[shy pollen]

Alr first run; no cultists

[wintry cobalt]

im on a 30 survival streak on factory, i think ive gotten 1 set of cultists in that time

[marsh wing]

no you found them twice yesterday remember?

[sturdy grove]

just need to kill one more priest for the story quest

[wintry cobalt]

yes i know

but i died at some point today

unironically ive done 40 raids today

i was lucky at first

[ebon jewel]

where do the bosses spawn by the way? and is there a quest line to read on the wiki?

[vagrant crypt]

i see them mostly around the 2 three-story buildings (knight?). be careful though, it's been much harder than i expected to take on all of them.

[ebon jewel]

alright ty

[livid wadi]

ooofft fk hunting trip done just sounded

hopefully it ACTUALLY lets me finish after this raid

[marsh wing]

told ya

[livid wadi]

it does the same with one of ref quests but resets after raid

[wintry cobalt]

2 minute raids mad fun!

[shy pollen]

CULTISTS

[livid wadi]

the one about kollontay / kaban

[marsh wing]

Site isnt allowed buddy

[sturdy beacon]

saw sanitar at the gas station in the garage area

[wintry cobalt]

:((

[marsh wing]

that site is datamined info, cant post it in this server

[vapid marlin]

oh my bad

[wintry cobalt]

the datamined info is wrong as well

theyre useless!

[marsh wing]

you can tell us what you might have seen on the site, but please no linking sites that have datamined info or arent given the okay by EFT themselves

[marsh wing]

if you ever need to visit a marked room, i got some keys i can use for you

[short flume]

so did they nerf the cultist spawn rate on nf

or is kral bad at attracting cultists

[marsh wing]

kral has had shit luck since yesterday

i feel bad for the guy, honestly

as far as we know, no changes have been made to spawn or drop rates since yesterday

[wintry cobalt]

ive gotten id say like 9 totaly cultist hits

ive done an unbelievable amount of raids

[shy pollen]

Damn I DIED BUT 2 MARKED KEYS

[wintry cobalt]

and then people here will say shit like "um actually no youre just bad at looking for them" when theyve killed cultists once

[shy pollen]

CHEK 13 AND RBVO

[wintry cobalt]

because they spent 20 minutes in a factory raid waiting for them

[forest patio]

so i just need to be doing run throughs right? no cultists turn around and come back?

[short flume]

um actually no youre just bad at looking for them - source: killed cultists more than once

[wintry cobalt]

you dont need to run through just tap two scavs and loot two bodies

enough xp in that

i do like 2 minute non run throughs now

[rugged hare]

is there an event with cultists right now? just getting back into the game after a long break

[wintry cobalt]

rbvo my beloved

[wintry cobalt]

increased spawn chances

[short flume]

go night factory -> bankroll your return to the game

[livid wadi]

god i hope hunting trip is done and i never have to use an m700 ever again

[wintry cobalt]

allegedly

[rugged hare]

thank you. all maps they usually spawn on im assuing?

[sturdy beacon]

i cant find them myself lol'

[short flume]

forget about that nf is all you need. no tagilla either

[tough pawn]

i just can't manage to find these hooded freaks

[vapid marlin]

[vapid marlin]

[tough pawn]

[wintry cobalt]

gotta say this is just silly now

[livid wadi]

[jaunty rock]

[vale atlas]

I just had to shoot tagilla 6x in the head, with 338 ap rounds

[wintry cobalt]

Have you tried looking harder?

[vale atlas]

That doesn't feel right lol

[wintry cobalt]

i dont know if it was 8 or 9 total

[livid wadi]

138.1m desert eagle headshot zingggg

[forest patio]

weird how that works huh. you do something and numbers go up

[wintry cobalt]

it could unironically still be 7 total cultist hits

[livid wadi]

who needs a snipe on dome

[marsh wing]

[restive latch]

honestly if you need stuff for kappa try to get the 6 hour timer on the cultist circle

[wintry cobalt]

i do like a raid every 5-6 minutes counting the main menu and loading and stuff

[livid wadi]

i have been farming scavs earlier just non stop factory but got sick of it, still no beards haha

i'll try customs

[loud raptor]

Where specifically on reserve do all the bosses spawn? same place from 2 years ago?

[marsh wing]

all i need is LL plushie and glasses

but i also dont do tasks, so im not even halfway to kappa quest yet

[burnt dawn]

Knights, K building, and underground storage

[loud raptor]

Nice

[livid wadi]

seems to be mostly in between the knights

[loud raptor]

Finally an event worth playing

[livid wadi]

reshala is always up near train

kaban and glukhar like the fields opposite the gas tanks

[burnt dawn]

The amount of guards is nuts, wasn't expecting them to come out in full force

[livid wadi]

i was able to handin hunter - you the man @marsh wing

[marsh wing]

yeah, shturman kills count on reserve, even with it being blacked out in task menu

[livid wadi]

sorry i mean hunting trip

[marsh wing]

hunter also works fyi

[livid wadi]

now im grinding hunter hahah

[sturdy beacon]

THANK FUCK

[livid wadi]

[sturdy beacon]

i spawned med tent and 3 rushed me off spawn, priest was in the water below

[fleet loom]

[forest patio]

unironically priest was my first cultist kill. dumb fucker ran right through a door into me

[wintry cobalt]

my plug should be here soon inshallah

[distant obsidian]

[wintry cobalt]

since the cultists arent here

[marsh wing]

im doing cargo, smuggler, and wetjob right now fyi

[distant obsidian]

Good

[forest patio]

so priest is just naked while the rest are armored?

[fervent peak]

He's got a kedr, but he usually let's his guards on point

[distant obsidian]

You also get an easy time doing your car need service because kaban isn't at lexos

[shy pollen]

MORE CULTISTS

[vapid marlin]

he can have other guns like a velociraptor and mp5

[forest patio]

all the guards were scattered he was alone

[marsh wing]

he can carry kedr or higher powered guns. Ive had him have 545 guns with ppbs

[shy pollen]

I got shanked tho

[fervent peak]

A guard shot me about 3 times with PPBS, and all the damage was taken by my C5 korund plate, 40 damage on the armor, I can see why PPBS is absolute ASS

[pseudo kayak]

where's my good for doing all my tasks wtf

[distant obsidian]

I didn't have to bully you into yours

[pseudo kayak]

didnt you? I must be schizo

idk what you've told me then if not tasks

[shy pollen]

I LOVE CULTISTS

[wintry cobalt]

[shy pollen]

I HAVE LIKE 5-6 MARKED KEYS AND IVE NEVER WON

[simple briar]

Is it me or injector flea prices sky rocketed? And if so, why?

[fervent peak]

Because it hates you

[pseudo kayak]

[echo barn]

[pseudo kayak]

[echo barn]

[distant obsidian]

O, maybe I did. Did you do your tasks?

[robust musk]

Will you able to do some gaming tonight? Rushing factory alone is boring 🙁

[distant obsidian]

Yep

[echo barn]

So is there any map with the bosses precise spawns or nah?

[mossy blade]

Todays profit: 80 million rubles

[fervent peak]

Nice~

[robust musk]

what ya do?

[mossy blade]

Cultists on factory

[forest patio]

cant even sell the keys i got two of because im not level 35

[robust musk]

they 100% rn or sum?

[pseudo kayak]

wait idk i dont recall now

[marsh wing]

Fuck... i forgot to bring keys in for cargo

[robust musk]

been taking a break from tark idk whats goin on rn lol

[distant obsidian]

Huh?

[wintry cobalt]

...

[fervent peak]

I'ma re-word his question: Is there a SINGULAR spawn for each boss? If this is your question, only Kaban and Tagilla on interchange have ONE spawn

Otherwise all other bosses have various spawns

[echo barn]

I'm talking about reserve specifically

[distant obsidian]

Anywhere

[wintry cobalt]

im losing it

[fervent peak]

Anywhere and everywhere, unless stated otherwise

[echo barn]

so every boss can be found everywhere ?

[distant obsidian]

Scav bosses and be anywhere on reserve

[wintry cobalt]

again...

[distant obsidian]

Only scav bosses

[echo barn]

I tought every boss had his little zone on the map

[tribal arrow]

guy how many attempt did you do for terminal?

[forest patio]

wait i thought cultist knife went into cultist circle

[livid sleet]

i only found pmcs in my run just now no scavs and i looked around for cultist but found nothing, is this common?

factory ^

[forest patio]

bet you they were there

[wintry cobalt]

yeah

[shy pollen]

I got another cultist run

[tough pawn]

11 💔

[wintry cobalt]

ive had scavs for like 30 in a row

[solemn marsh]

did they nerf cultists?

only got a single marked key that go

[wintry cobalt]

dont mention their names please...

its triggering me

[solemn marsh]

to bad?

[wintry cobalt]

i havent seen them

in so long

[bronze saddle]

still cant understand why i need 10-15 minutes to start a fucking streets raid, cause its fucking BSG server based exclusive, its dumb

[shy pollen]

I’ve gotten 6

[fervent peak]

I do not know where you got this info or where the assumption came from, but it is false

[silver idol]

I don’t think so, both factory runs I found cultist got 1 dorms marked then the other 2 marked keys

[fiery musk]

the map is too big and it will crush your puter running it and the ai and your game at the same time

[marsh wing]

bro smugglers are super easy to kill at camp on shoreline

[forest patio]

is factory across from kabans base?

[bronze saddle]

and it says the ETA is 2 and a half minutes... man i have 64GB RAM and 4060TI

[marsh wing]

huh

[forest patio]

by theater

[marsh wing]

oh factory key

its across from relax, almost exactly

[fiery musk]

also the game is an unoptimized pile of hotdog water if you haven't noticed

[wintry cobalt]

its acc been over 3 hours

[silver idol]

I’m not even bothering with the smugglers just farming marked keys and dorms since it’s so juicy lol

[marble aurora]

alr lads, farmed cultists all day, from 7 mil to 188mil and hoarded around 15-20 keys as well

[stone goblet]

youre still not hosting streets locally with that rig

[wintry cobalt]

glad to know my luck is being given unto others

[dire bison]

It’s been over a year since a player tarkov. Was there a force wipe to be able to play terminal or something and do you need to have wiped to play with someone who has?

[silver idol]

This will be my night lmfaoo

[wintry cobalt]

it alleviates my suffering a lil bit

[stone goblet]

there was no "force wipe" for 1.0 content but you MUST self wipe to access the story

[fiery musk]

what are you actually trying to do?

[wintry cobalt]

ive spent 3 hours throwing nades at the start of raid killing 2 scavs then leaving

[marsh wing]

Stand at relax room door, look across the street. find the archway a little to the left, go through it, to the left you'll se a forklift, go through the door behind it, go up the stairs, turn right, 2nd left, first right, straight, then only door on left, next to the stairs

[wintry cobalt]

because the cultists are just not spawning

[echo barn]

i get it from the fact that killa and sanitar have set spawn points accross their respective maps

[shy pollen]

HOLY I JUST GOT 6 MARKED KEYS

[marble aurora]

spawn, check gate 0 and gate 3 , run to the middle of the other area, where the med tent is, if no cultists move, reset, that's what i did

[marsh wing]

sanch calm down, we all are when we kill them

[echo barn]

how

[fiery musk]

fwiw I've never seen a cultist on factory... I have been farming them on customs and having good luck but I saw you all talking about factory and now i'm trying it

[wintry cobalt]

ive done at least 80 raids dude

[marsh wing]

cultists on factory

[wintry cobalt]

and 8 spawns total

[shy pollen]

I HAVE GOTTEN THEM 4 TIMES IN A ROW

[wintry cobalt]

see what i said

i literally said that sanch would find them 4 times in a row

[marsh wing]

please be more considerate of Kralj

[marble aurora]

oh lord, rng is really not on ur side today

[wintry cobalt]

or last night

[marble aurora]

damn 🙁

[wintry cobalt]

last night i had like 3 hits in 32 raids today ive done at least 50 idek anymore

[echo barn]

guys i love it when a guard can absorb 30 MAI AP ammo with no issues

[wintry cobalt]

where is my fucking plug i want to abuse substances

[shy pollen]

I LOVE THIS

[dire bison]

Cheers

[wintry cobalt]

happy for you bro

[marsh wing]

you want me to merc Sanch?

[lusty vine]

+-are cultist still lit on factory?

[shy pollen]

😭 sorry guys I’m excited

[wintry cobalt]

for other people yes

[marsh wing]

+- yes

[wintry cobalt]

sanch hopped on the game 5 hours after i did, found more cultists in a row than i did all day

[forest patio]

i guess i dont know where relax room is

[tough pawn]

i've already gotten enough marked keys but you can never have too many

[marsh wing]

you mind if i dm you?

[forest patio]

no i dont mind

[livid sleet]

WHERE i kid u i searched high and low

[shy pollen]

First time I didn’t get them

The cycle is broken😭

[livid sleet]

can you still use red flares to spawn the air drop in pve?

[shy pollen]

Yes

[wintry cobalt]

just not on gz

[shy pollen]

They are cracked rn (sealed weapon cases are AMAZING)

[wintry cobalt]

or factory or lab

[echo barn]

alright im going with a pkm only

[wintry cobalt]

i shit you not

[marsh wing]

just run in with deagle or a shotgun

[wintry cobalt]

my last 30 raids have been swarmed with scavs and pmcs

[marsh wing]

they super easy to drop with a good shot

[echo barn]

I mean i just hope tagilla doesn't touch me

[restive latch]

i have sold 20 marked keys today

[wintry cobalt]

everyone but the cult is there ig

[restive latch]

up 115 mil

[wintry cobalt]

im just gonna hoard all the keys i found (because i wont find anymore)

[echo barn]

why do I have 420 ping on factory

[livid sleet]

i was lucky to find one on a pmc

[wintry cobalt]

bugged ping indicator sometimes

[livid sleet]

im on factory right now. . its too quiet

[restive latch]

bsg servers smoking that dank

[wintry cobalt]

i had 1k ping on factory yesterday

[echo barn]

but its local

[wintry cobalt]

you know what this means :3

[silver idol]

Hahahahahaah

[livid sleet]

watch me not find them AGAIN

[wintry cobalt]

it means im gonna shoot myself with this mdr

[silver idol]

Not gonna lie I just struggled finding the priest

[magic copper]

Hellllo everybody, random question…. I finished the 5 pmc kills on interchange for the story line quest but wanna work on killing smugglers, I know it will “fail” the shoreline pmc kill part but will it make me redo the pmc kills on interchange as well or are those ones “locked in” does anyone know?

[livid sleet]

FOUHND ONE

[silver idol]

Let’s go!!

[shy pollen]

More cultists bro

So many marked

[tough pawn]

marked key market was destroyed overnight

[shy pollen]

Who cares they’re still amazing

[tough pawn]

i mean it's not that bad but yesterday they were like 3m when they used to be like 14-16m

[marble aurora]

were marked rooms buffed as well? they were shit before the event

[short flume]

hold onto them or use them

[marsh wing]

open them for weapon cases and red flares for the current event. Otherwise, no

[tough pawn]

yeah they've been really good, i've been pulling keycards like every raid

[wintry cobalt]

at this point its just funny

[spice frigate]

Do scav bosses still spawn on their normal maps during the event or just reserve?

[livid wadi]

it doesnt seem like it

[icy tartan]

Does the shoreline vehicle extract not work

[livid wadi]

it works

[livid sleet]

killde the priest just finding the rest

yall got me addicted to cultist farming now thx

[vagrant furnace]

theres prestige in pve?

[spice frigate]

So like customs could be reshala free right now?

[wintry cobalt]

...

[icy tartan]

I just got absolutely juiced. Ran to the exfil it was their not taken. Tapped on the pay roubles in every possible part of the car, directly up against th car a bit away from the car. 3 minutes I spent trying to get the game to take the money

[wintry cobalt]

it is reshala free

[icy tartan]

It never did and I went MIA and lost all of it

[spice frigate]

Oh wow

[wheat bough]

still have to worry about goons and partizan but yes reshalla not there

[icy tartan]

It had notification that I paid roubles but when chcking inventory they nervous came out ?

Did tarkov cook me or has this happened to others?

[wintry cobalt]

1.0

[trim summit]

damn, these smugglers can shoot

[icy tartan]

That'd was my first time ever using shoreline exfil 😂😭

[fervent peak]

Smugglers are Raiders cranked up a little bit

[icy tartan]

Vehcil exfil and it doesn't work

[lusty vine]

any1 got an extra gunsmit pt 25?

[livid sleet]

can they only spawn in twos? or is it always 3-4 cultists

[trim summit]

noticed after the 3 headshots i got from them

[lusty vine]

most ive seen is the preist and 3 followerss

[austere solstice]

is the chance of cultists on factory lowered now? ran like 8 in row night no cultists

[tough pawn]

on factory they spawn in groups of 2-3, on every other map i think it's like 4-6

[livid sleet]

killed the priest and one follower so far , cant seem to find anymore

[tough pawn]

he could've died to a pmc

[warped imp]

my buddy wants to get into Tarkov, and I have told him that's its both a fun game, and hell with bullshit, is a video that will show him both the Pros and Cons of the game?

[gusty reef]

Someone earlier asked but now that we're later in the day, did they nerf the key drop rates on cultists? Or is it still giga cracked

[austere solstice]

2 time that ive seen them it was preist + 3 followers

[marble aurora]

pve or pvp

[tough pawn]

it's still amazing, i just ran one and got 6 marked keys

[livid sleet]

theres been 0 pmcs in this raid oddly

[austere solstice]

one the priest got rekt by pmcs,the other time 1 guard got glacked by them

[vapid marlin]

keys feel nerfed but you can still get a few per encounter

[gusty reef]

Okay so mfs were just unlucky, thanks bro

[warped imp]

I told him since I only play PvE it's more fun but PvP gives you a great feeling when you can kill a 6 man

[livid sleet]

do they kinda chill together or are they spread out?

[warped imp]

So I'm not the only one

[wintry cobalt]

yes i am mfs

[gusty reef]

Every good content creator exclusivley plays PvP, there are no high quality videos for PvE that I know

[tough pawn]

they spread out a bit but they'll usually be in the same area as the others

[lusty vine]

ive seen them completly spread out and together

[gusty reef]

In my experience warriors stay pretty close and will all rush you at once but the priest just prones in a random corner stroking his shi so you do have to hunt him down

[marsh wing]

i havent touched factory once today. Ive been tasking all morning lol

[tough pawn]

i need more marked keys 💔

[gusty reef]

When I get home I'm going to start giga progressing They Are Already Here while priests are easy to grind

[marsh wing]

i got half a case full, i want it full by the time event ends, maybe a 2nd one

[marsh wing]

yeah, see, thats literally only 2 raids i found out

[wintry cobalt]

🙁

[tough pawn]

how long did half a case take?

[marsh wing]

go to lighthouse, grab a key, go to streets, use the key, grab some books, talk to mech, now kill 2 priests

[marble aurora]

personally this made me buy pve in the first palce
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlyZ4Qs9bKY
and pestilys pve playlist
for pvp the trailer did it for me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swVVzwxrRSo (even tho i bought the game randomly 2-3 years before that)

[warped imp]

SO there's no Here's the pro and cons of the game in general? Not just some that Heavily Focuses on PvP? Damn

[marsh wing]

7hrs or so yesterday

[mystic mesa]

where do all the bosses spawn on reserve?

[wintry cobalt]

:((((((

[gusty reef]

Oh that's not bad at all. Do you really just need 2 priest kills for the entire chapter?

[marsh wing]

i glimpsed over wiki and from what i saw, yeah

[gusty reef]

I got 32 keys in maybe 4 or 5 hours, that's just under half a case I think? It's really luck dependant

[livid sleet]

found the third, bro was prone in gate 0

[marsh wing]

im progressing smuggler quest so i can open the cases

[summer zinc]

yo guys which map is best for the farm these smugglers

[gray scaffold]

My Goodness the choppyness of the reserve event

[mystic mesa]

yeah my frames died a few times

[summer zinc]

from where lol

[gusty reef]

Factory

[mystic mesa]

farming factory works? do cultists spawn alot?

[wheat bough]

i feel that, like i got 1-2 raids with 3+ keys on each, now im lucky to get 1-2 from 3 guards and priest

[summer zinc]

spamming factory which area their spawn location or random?

[gusty reef]

Random

[gusty reef]

33%, same as any other map

[wintry cobalt]

ive gotten 0 cultists in 3 and a half hours

[mystic mesa]

ah ok

[main reef]

made almost 600m from factory cultist hunts

[mystic mesa]

damn okay i guess i gotta get in on this

[main reef]

are you solo or multiplayer cuz solo they wont spawn

[wintry cobalt]

who else is this stupid to grind for this long ofc im solo

[summer zinc]

i see btw i accidently discard one of my gear with good amount item inside of it feels bad man

[main reef]

then thats the problem ur not on bsg servers solo

[wheat bough]

all around, but if you run around between office and medtent (down in basement and on ground floor) you should find them, ive seen them spawn by gate 0 and inside the transit to labs area, look everywhere, they easy to spot tho

[wintry cobalt]

??????

you literally cannot go bsg servers on factory

[summer zinc]

alrt thx

[wheat bough]

in group mayve

[main reef]

you are when you play multiplayer

[wintry cobalt]

what?????

every factory raid solo is local

[cosmic patrol]

When you are multiplayer it FORCES you into BSG. Solo, quite almost all maps force you into Local.

[wheat bough]

yeah i think he was asking if people be running duos or smth and getting them more or not

[wintry cobalt]

you can choose for most of them

[vagrant crypt]

is culty factory buffed?

[cosmic patrol]

And the choice too yeah

[wintry cobalt]

nah everyone is running solo from what i can tell

[cosmic patrol]

I mean, it varies tbh

[lusty vine]

any1 got an extra gunsmit pt 25?

[tough pawn]

we get it bro you've been saying this since last night

[wintry cobalt]

im going to drop an anvil on you the next time you step outside

[cosmic patrol]

If you do reserve enough you will prolly get a PKP

and much more of course. A lot more than a PKP only

[marble aurora]

show some love man, rng been rough

[edgy notch]

indeed, grabbed a spare pkp first reserve run of boss kills

[summer zinc]

its hard to grab tht pkp honestly fat man along with the other bosses

[tough pawn]

yeah it's been rough for me too

[lusty vine]

yeah ion got the ammo for that anymore lol

[solemn marsh]

ive run cultists down 4 times today so far, need more dorms marked keys

[wintry cobalt]

27 keys from 8 sets of cultists out of maybe like

i cant even guess how many raids atp its more than 80 or even 90

[edgy notch]

are all the marked rooms now better or just reserve ones?

[vapid marlin]

earlier i got 23 keys from 3 runs 🙂

[main reef]

been playing duo all day and can confirm that ive gotten them every third raid minimum

[wheat bough]

yeah i think they nerfed the keys got another culti spawn 2 keys off the 4

[tacit mesa]

Works fine for me

[fiery musk]

I also only got 1 key off my last 2 groups about 2 hours ago

[pallid galleon]

guys. wher do i get red flare from? Like, dont you need 13 cases for the event quest and dont these cases only come from airdrops? Everybody just has a stash of red flares or what? where do you guys get them from?

[solemn marsh]

factory has garunteed 2 spawns every raid for cases

[tacit mesa]

Where?

[solemn marsh]

go to wiki for the cases my friends, its to ez, shows you spawn chance and places for every map

[fiery musk]

I don't understand the factory cultist farm... I go in, throw a grenade, don't hear a callout. I'm thinking "nice, this is the one" so I go farther in and I start hearing scavs and pmcs

[pallid galleon]

yo what?

[tacit mesa]

They are shy thats all

[pallid galleon]

where?

[vale atlas]

Night factory, spawns all over

[solemn marsh]

one in medical, and one in lower 3 story factory

[pallid galleon]

damn. thanks man

[marsh wing]

bro, finally killing smugglers, they loaded with good guns

SA-58, T-500, and G28, i havent even checked the other two

[solemn marsh]

np you can leave every factory raid with 2 cases

[marsh wing]

just do this bozo

[summer zinc]

which map you guys do use for farm smugglers?

[solemn marsh]

snoreline

[marsh wing]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Locked_case

[pallid galleon]

thanks

[summer zinc]

resort area?

[storm panther]

anyone else have the same bug where on lighthouse snipers with mags dont kill rogues but after taking out the mag and shooting it kills them?

[marsh wing]

no, top right, up by v-ex

[solemn marsh]

power and smugglers camp

[summer zinc]

ah i see thx

[marsh wing]

ive also heard that they spawn consistently at power in interchange

[bronze saddle]

lucky me after who knows how many raids, i decided FUCK IT im going to streets and do some tasks, BOOM 3 smugglers right up my ass

[wheat bough]

there can be all factions on the map look everywhere usually under ground is where they like to be

[rotund hornet]

whats the survey reward

[marsh wing]

piddle shit

like, 4 items, all hideout related i think

[rotund hornet]

good i need that im new lol

[marsh wing]

its really common items iirc

let me know what it is since i forgot

[rotund hornet]

alr ill be home in 30 minutes

[marsh wing]

driver faster while texting us

[tacit mesa]

Anyone up for some bosses on reserve?

[marsh wing]

try #pve-lfg

[tacit mesa]

Right sorry

[marsh wing]

all we do is fight eachother and bitch and moan, they actually play the game over there

[wintry cobalt]

finally, only took about 40 raids

and people who tell me "waaa they can spawn at the same time" definitely have never hunted cultists

[marsh wing]

go get more

[wintry cobalt]

every time the cultists spawn, the raid is devoid of scavs

[fiery musk]

people were making it seem like there would be no scavs? Maybe I misunderstood that part (throw a grenade and if you hear no callouts then its cultists)

[wintry cobalt]

like the map is fully depopulated

[pallid galleon]

can cultists spawn mid raid on me? like can i just sit at checklpoint on woods and hope they spawn?

[stone goblet]

someone posted a video earlier of killing a scav and two seconds later killing a cultist so

[marsh wing]

oooh, 2nd knossos key

[wintry cobalt]

they can spawn during the raid yes

[stone goblet]

cultists spawn != no scavs

[wintry cobalt]

theres no way scavs can spawn start of raid if the cultists are there

[pallid galleon]

yeah but can they spawn even when im present?

[stone goblet]

cultists can spawn on top of you lmao

[marsh wing]

guys. Cultists can spawn. Scavs can spawn. Leave it at that

[wintry cobalt]

i was in the new industrial plant building or whatever killed the goons, and the cultists spawned right outside

[marsh wing]

just run the map, if you dont find them, leave

[tacit mesa]

Guys which nvg mount does the n15 go on?

[vagrant crypt]

woabback to back cultists on factory?

[marsh wing]

woabback indeed

[vagrant crypt]

but hard to find priest on factory, fucker doesnt move

[restive latch]

found a locked case on a cultist and a contraband box wtf do i do with them

[cosmic patrol]

Both are needed within the new questline

[wintry cobalt]

yo where is my god damn plug

[cosmic patrol]

??event

[quasi apex]

A new questline has arrived! Start it by accepting "Bulldogs Under The Rug" from Peacekeeper!

[marsh wing]

last message failed to send so its red lol

[cosmic patrol]

What did u do

[marsh wing]

idk

[wheat bough]

ive had scav army, like 4 groups of pmcs, and the cultists, it varies, but there have been cases the map is dead and its just cultists and pmcs, and a few scavs, the spawns are 12% so

[toxic patio]

i have always seen the scavs not spawn in the very first wave if there's cultists

so if within the first 40 seconds there's no scavs, then stick around and look for the cultists

[heavy raft]

How cracked are the smugglers right now?

[marsh wing]

not to be toyed with. Treat them as raiders

they are spawning with stuff like G28 and high powered guns

[heavy raft]

So about like they were the last time they came out? They could see me from further than Glukar

[marsh wing]

they are easy to take out at smugglers base in shoreline

do NOT go to scav bunker on woods. The lack of cover fucks you up

[pseudo kayak]

I hope they spawn behind you and you load in stabbed

I've got a vendetta against you butch

[wintry cobalt]

No two in a row

[pseudo kayak]

why? idfk dont ask me ask that guy

[wintry cobalt]

Back to do another 40 raids

[livid sleet]

just had three of them rush me

[wintry cobalt]

Yeah I got them last raid

[livid sleet]

i wish u luck

[pseudo kayak]

if you just load in and leave over and over you'll get them eventually kralj trust

act like u dont even care if theyre there

[wintry cobalt]

But now this raid was perfectly quiet I thought I got two in a row but everyone was in offices

[livid sleet]

again anothre raid without pmcs

[wintry cobalt]

I spent three and a half hours of 2-3 minute long raids running across everywhere they usually are and extracting

For one spawn

[vagrant crypt]

do you guys have troulbe finding priest on factory

[pseudo kayak]

act like you dont even care

[pseudo kayak]

look in the most like blatantly obvious spots if that makes sense

[wintry cobalt]

Very much so! I've had trouble finding any of them!

[pseudo kayak]

somewhere a sweat would be thrown off by in pvp if you proned there

[wintry cobalt]

I'm profoundly bored and my bf is out of town so Im just wasting time attempting to farm

[pseudo kayak]

like in front of postman pat, why on God's green earth would anyone be parked there?

[marsh wing]

priest wont aggro unless you attack him or get too close. He likes to nade himself to death or lay on the ground and look at bugs

[ashen anchor]

look above scav bunker he likes to chill there

the little room with the power thingys near the middle

[robust musk]

had glukhar spawn over by the bunkers next to VO and in my random spray with the ags killed him and 2 guards lol

[sage marsh]

wtf is scav bunker

[vagrant crypt]

yeah thats fun. when you spawn at dome and they are all near the heli.

[marsh wing]

im currently running across shoreline with 4 scav vests on me

[robust musk]

how long ago did this event start

[marsh wing]

28 hrs ago

[robust musk]

ok so it will still last for a while

[marsh wing]

not sure

[vagrant crypt]

wish 100% culty on factory arrived earlier, i spent days trying to get them on customs

[robust musk]

cause I wanna do all the smugglers stuff and the boss stuff but ima be away from home for a couple days

[trail sail]

Is red airdrop guaranteed on every raid?

[sage marsh]

no

[marsh wing]

they have high chance of spawning in marked rooms, but not guaranteed

[trail sail]

The flares ?

[trail sail]

Aight

[marsh wing]

yes. They also have a rare chance to spawn in any container in the game iirc. I found 1 in a small green wooden crate the other day

[golden widget]

they can also spawn on scavs

[marsh wing]

yes, and cultists from what ive heard

[mystic mesa]

i lwk regret not farming cultists untill now

[livid sleet]

ran into 3 and the priest wooo

[mystic mesa]

2 rb-bk marked keys on the same cultist

[marsh wing]

yeah, most people are getting 6-10 keys per cultist raid

[mystic mesa]

holy shit

[livid sleet]

is the priest always guaranteed a marked key or is kinda spread across him and his goons

[mystic mesa]

the only problem with factory is that they are so spread apart ngl

[mystic mesa]

ive only seen priest once and he didnt have marked

[marsh wing]

should be guaranteed right now. He usually has 2-5, and the warriors have some too most the time

[livid sleet]

just had it now, but his other bros had some

[mystic mesa]

ah

[livid sleet]

he didnt have a key, and he was also hiding in one of the gates

tbh i havent seen them spread out at all, but i have noticed they like the gates

[marsh wing]

hey look, yellow flare out of a green wooden crate

[vagrant crypt]

ahhhh not 100% on factory...good way to tell is if no scav or pmc spawns initially

[marsh wing]

stop telling people that. Just run the map like normal. Kill people, hit safes, grab locked cases, if you dont see cultists, you dont. Extract and repeat

im tired of people saying "If you dont see them just reset."

[ashen anchor]

idk how to explain it... so if you are looking at gate 5 its a lil room to your right the ground floor has a dead scav and then there is an area above that room looking at the middle tankers... he usually hides behind those metal in that little area

[wheat bough]

usually if map is dead they there, but they spawn sometimes when map is populated

[ashen anchor]

if you know what that is called pls let me know lol

[marsh wing]

no hate against you, sorry if it seems that way

[livid sleet]

tbh i have never gone cultist farming til today, and everyone whos suggested factory has been right so far

much appreciation

[marsh wing]

smallest map in the game, 33% spawn chance

[sage marsh]

your just wrong.

[ashen anchor]

he isnt wrong but the spawn during the raid sometimes

[livid sleet]

so far ive done like 3-4 raids? and i have dorm 314, 2 pollkim, chek 13, abandoned factory, and rb-vo

[sage marsh]

they spawn together. quite alot. Cultists take the boss spawn slot. not the scav spawn slots

[silver idol]

So far it’s 50/50 they take the scav spawn it seems sometimes, and just cultist and Pmc in raid sometimes cultist and a few scavs

Does it jump how many cultist cause few raids I’ve only found a priest and follower

[mystic mesa]

it varies

[wheat bough]

usually its 2 guards and priest, sometimes 3 guards

[edgy notch]

one of those tiny locked cases must be magical, it had a tank battery hidden inside...

[vale atlas]

Man the hitreg on bsg servers is fuckin atrocious

[silver idol]

Kk well the 2nd guard was hiding like a mf could not find him lmfao

[winged sun]

so yesterday on reserve there were like 2 air drops each time now i can even get a single one cant even find a red flare

[wintry cobalt]

me when scavs tank m80 through the eye

[vale atlas]

Just unloaded 25 rounds of m993 into a pmc's face, blood splatter and all, he just sat there and then domed me

[fiery musk]

Had another quiet start on factory, looked everywhere and only scavs

[nocturne gyro]

where do you see them at on factory?

[fallen mason]

Not even that. During the last two cultists events I had several raids with Tagilla, Scavs, PMCs, and Cultists

[sage marsh]

same

[wheat bough]

guys the 3 keys are real!!! i guess they made it rare cause one of the guards had 3 marked keys on him

[sage marsh]

cultists?

[wheat bough]

yes

[marsh wing]

crafting level 31 baby

[wheat bough]

most people farm cultist for the keys, i farm cultist for the plates, we are not the same

[west mist]

man, smugglers are rough

[ashen anchor]

you can just buy these off of Ragman lol

[wheat bough]

take them slow like fighting raiders, let them either push you and aim for their head, or rush them and mow em down with high capacity mags, they usually dont got head protection and they have lvl 4-6 plates

[wheat bough]

not ragman 4 yet sadly, been neglecting it

[spiral pecan]

Farming cult termites off tagilla>

[echo hamlet]

goons on customs

[dawn cove]

yo are the bosses' factions different? I accidentally shot some of Reshala's guards but Shturman and Sanitar are still cool with me.

[echo hamlet]

all bosses on reserve are scav bosses

[static lotus]

where do you find the smugglers

[west mist]

a few places

i have run into them 2x in a row on big red on customs if that helps

[static lotus]

what do they look like?

[fervent drift]

Is cqcm mask any good

[static lotus]

depends

[west mist]

look like scavs, geared like pmc's

[fervent drift]

I did the quest for the mask with all the bosses there that was fun

[fallen mason]

It used to be good. Level 4.

[fervent drift]

Dang

[cosmic patrol]

holy shit. I just checked some shit I gotta do for school. Gotta make a powerpoint with some instructions on some geography / history shit for the course... The instructions are in fucking... chinese it seems?

[static lotus]

so just better scavs?

[cosmic patrol]

I got chinese and maybe some hieroglyphs for these instructions. Very... nice

[west mist]

yeah, better AI but same clothes

[static lotus]

damn they reduced the armour level i thought that was just for arena?

[west mist]

and their guns are all high durability, like 90-100%

[cosmic patrol]

Easiest is go shoreline smuggler camp.

[fallen mason]

They're just better geared scavs. IIRC from a year and a half ago they wore grey jackets and had balaclavas.

[cosmic patrol]

They got balaclavas now too, but the way I differentiated them was with umm backpacks

[west mist]

^

[fallen mason]

Yeah they wear big backpacks. Thats right

[static lotus]

suprisingly thats where the smugglers are

[west mist]

scavs with big packs

[short flume]

based on my experience when hunting cultists solo. i kill all the soldiers and then spend the next 10 minutes looking for the rat priest

[cosmic patrol]

Yeah. Therefore if u look for smugglers, thats where to go

[west mist]

i've not seen smugglers at smugglers camp, ended up hitting em twice while spawning big red though

[static lotus]

what should i do im bored with the game but am stuck where i cant finish the story without playing but every quest is so tedious now

[fallen mason]

They used to spawn on factory near med tent area when they first did the event.

[static lotus]

i need fuckass black card but sanitar decided to run up on me and now i cant finish colleagues

[fallen mason]

That's how I grinded it

[wheat bough]

Customs: big red, stronghold
Shoreline: Smugglers camp, health resort, hydro power plant, (i think also peir i cant confirm)
idk about other maps

[wheat bough]

just dont kill him

[static lotus]

i didnt have a choice

[wheat bough]

if he kills you let him if you wanted that

[static lotus]

how tf do i find black now cause i aint spending fuckin 15 mill

[wheat bough]

marked rooms, krugrovs room, spawns for it on labs

[long cloak]

is it true about no scavs when cultists spawn?

[wheat bough]

also bosses

[fallen mason]

No

[static lotus]

yea but you need black for krugov bro

[wheat bough]

yeah... and?

you asked where to find it, i gave you options XD

[fiery musk]

found a weapon repair kit on factory before finding any cultists

[lone thicket]

can the smugglers spawn at both interchange locations or is it one or the other?

[static lotus]

im starting to think my luck is just ass ive checked bosses like 40 times and ive done rserve bunker marked and all i get is fuckin guns and docs cases

[sage marsh]

skill issue

[wheat bough]

one run customs or streets abandoned marked room, ive gotten more keys from them than any other room

[static lotus]

maybe i should just spam green and blue?

[wheat bough]

green has a black keycard spawn by the keyboard

[static lotus]

the best luck ive had is on rusted bloody i got a labs arsenal and 314 key

same room

same time i mean

[wheat bough]

you can also farm cultists rn, im using pst (sue me) and im getting alot of marked keys, so you can spam them for keycards

[static lotus]

where tf do you find cultists😭

[fiery musk]

Good question

[wintry cobalt]

very good question indeed

[wheat bough]

factory

[wintry cobalt]

in theory

[static lotus]

2-5% spawn chance

[short flume]

yall are capping im convinced

[wheat bough]

give me a min to finish this run

[echo hamlet]

customs

[short flume]

they are really not that rare 😭

[fallen mason]

It's bumped up to 33%

[static lotus]

ive literally never seen a cultist in my 600 hours of playing

[wintry cobalt]

i wonder why my survival streak randomly reset

[astral kindle]

Run-through?

[wintry cobalt]

false

[round orbit]

did you die?

[wintry cobalt]

ah shit

[short flume]

does run through reset the streak!??!??!

[round orbit]

that would reset it

[wintry cobalt]

i had to run out to my plug lmao

[astral kindle]

Yup, accidentally reseted my 150 streak few months ago

[short flume]

that explains a lot.....

[astral kindle]

Was doing wetjob 5 and autopiloted over to exfil

[fallen mason]

BSG needs to make Goons hard again

[wintry cobalt]

gooning makes me hard?

ive been using the streak to count my very low success rate with cultists

[wheat bough]

[lunar harbor]

priest only had 1 marked key on him 2 times now compared to the 3 marked on him and at least 1 on each warrior last night, was their loot nerfed?

[wheat bough]

ive had 1-2 of em having 3 keys since last night idk

[edgy notch]

just cleared the 5 cultists on customs, 8 marked keys in total, so its varying

[wheat bough]

prob so

[short flume]

wouldnt be surprised

last night i was getting min 6 keys per group of cultists

[wintry cobalt]

outside of my inability to find them ive had good loot from them

[wheat bough]

@static lotus join that vc imma show ya the cultist spawn locations

[short flume]

just got off work so im going to go hunt, will report back

[ashen anchor]

farming Cultists on factory is fun now i mean i dont really need the money but i just like to see numbers go up already went from 60mil to 130mil today

[wintry cobalt]

i mean my stash value has gone up quite a bit

[static lotus]

i know where they spawn i just cant be fucked to go into 10 raids to find them once

[wintry cobalt]

i dont feel like selling the 30 ive found so far

[short flume]

not 10 raids

[lunar harbor]

yeah same, walking out with like 6 keys minimum last night, last 2 run ins with them today only had 2 keys... might have been unlucky but ill keep farming

[wheat bough]

they have a 12-33% chance of spawning

[marsh wing]

INTEL DROPPED 100K

[wintry cobalt]

hahahahahahha 10 raids

[static lotus]

trust me with my luck it probably is 5%

[wintry cobalt]

...

[mossy blade]

aight today profit is like really good

[wheat bough]

nah my luck is ass, and im getting them about every other raid

[mossy blade]

80+ milion earns + solar power

[wintry cobalt]

...

[static lotus]

whered you find your MCC

[wintry cobalt]

labs probably lol

[wheat bough]

labs

[echo hamlet]

literally anywhere on labs

[static lotus]

yea but where

[wheat bough]

tech spawns

[wintry cobalt]

i found them in yellow like 3 times in a row

[static lotus]

you act as if i have every tech spawn on labs memorised

[wintry cobalt]

its not that rare in my experience

[forest patio]

fucking smugglers dude

[static lotus]

how many gpsa's you found

[echo hamlet]

smugglers were great when i first started

[wheat bough]

they appear alot in violet and yellow

[forest patio]

im getting tired of being lasered and having no idea where they are

[echo hamlet]

they are like pmcs but have high durability guns

[astral kindle]

Best places for it is small computer area near weapon testing, yellow and violet keycard rooms, cat's table and office where new black keycard room is located

[static lotus]

ive hit both those like 6 times

also cat and offices

[lone thicket]

4,329

[astral kindle]

Of course after loot nerfs few months ago its more rare but spawns time to time in yellow for me

[patent leaf]

Guys, do all 8 bosses spawn at the same time on reserve? Just done raid and only 4 were present

[astral kindle]

Yes

[lone thicket]

they can move around on their little boss legs though too.

[marsh wing]

gonna go farm smugglers for the quest

[peak silo]

cultist still on?

[patent leaf]

yes, spawn chances were increased, 66% on woods and shoreline, 33% on ground zero/factory etc

[forest patio]

smugglers are far worse than pmcs

they are my only deaths passed 2 days

[livid oxide]

yes you lost all your kits to them and have to wait for insurance

[untold prism]

Yo how do we make now voice channels for pvp?

[forest patio]

couldnt find the 50 empty ones down below?

[whole birch]

why is loose loot so bad rn

labs is basically empty

[mossy blade]

Labs, yellow most likely

[mossy blade]

i just tested marked rooms on reserve, i got like 10mil profit from 3 marked rooms

they buffed marked rooms to my view

[forest patio]

streets has been awesome for me

[untold prism]

It shows dynamic channels only

[forest patio]

other than smugglers 50 feet from my spawn

[jolly bough]

Is the cultist 100% on customs?

[tidal egret]

How about loot still good?
