pve-chat

[marsh wing]

and it only took 1:45 lol

[placid iris]

Need help finding smugglers

[marsh wing]

you do?

[thorn token]

look on wiki, they have areas they spawn in

[remote fox]

The wiki has some maps with where they spawn, that's what i would recommend tbh.

[little heron]

Shoreline in scav base or water treatment, customs near the watch truck or big red

[remote fox]

Great advice though, that's where I've found most of mine.

[marsh wing]

bro

[thorn token]

streets is the cinema courtyard or klimov

[marsh wing]

cultists just fucking ate 5 shotgun rounds with Scav

[thorn token]

interchange is the power station or river camp

[little heron]

Best is customs cuz mostly its cqb

[marsh wing]

2nd one came in and dropped my ass before i could reload

[peak silo]

cultists appear when i choose scav lol

[marsh wing]

so uh, nevermind about cultists not aggroing Scavs

[thorn token]

and apparently they can spawn on ground zero too, but it doesnt give an area so i assume everywhere

[marsh wing]

also, im 3/3 today

[thorn token]

its the ai scavs i think not player scavs

[marsh wing]

mainly in the garden/park area in front of terragroup

[thorn token]

and thats probably just a gameplay thing so cultists aren't already aggroed before a pmc gets to them

[marsh wing]

nah. My last scav raid, cultist walked right past me. Didnt aggro until i shot. This time, they loaded into me immediately

[little heron]

Its not that its just AI scavs never get too close to cultists

[thorn token]

ah, so another case of cultist ai doesnt give a fuck about it's programming i see

[marsh wing]

when i say right past me, i mean we were hip to hip and i followed him through bottom office

[little heron]

cultist ai is dookie, expect a john wick or a rattling snake that just rattles without doing anything

[marsh wing]

accurate

[remote fox]

Do cultists roam on Factory instead of laying prone the entire time or something? I've literally never seen a cultist on factory lol

[little heron]

One time my gun jammed while shooting a cultist guard, I had 2 bleeds and was running away from him that mf kept chasing me and I TOOK a whole loop round factory and he still wouldnt stop

[marsh wing]

bro... im 4/4

maybe not

[little heron]

They tend to lay prone more than roaming, they usually like spend 5 minutes prone then roam to reposition

[tough pawn]

i just saw killa get on the fucked mounted gun and he railed me

[little heron]

+1 rare encounter you won’t forget

[tough pawn]

and he was pushing with reshala's guards what the actual fuck is this game bro

[little heron]

I once saw reshala and his guards standing in line to the mounted gun, seemed like kids in line for a carnival ride ffs

[distant obsidian]

all bosses on reserve is what

[spiral pecan]

that happened to me too lmfao i thought i got headshotted by a gluey guard #screenshots message

[tough pawn]

xd

[jovial cobalt]

i thought i was supposed to be doing dishes

[marsh wing]

did you do them yet?

[jovial cobalt]

uuuuhhhhh

[marsh wing]

you better not have just licked them clean

[grave rivet]

anyone know what killas spawn rate is on interchange rn?

[fervent peak]

0

[grave rivet]

gotcha thank you

[distant obsidian]

0

[marsh wing]

4

[remote fox]

Oh I am so stupid, I can just go to reserve for Shturman to finish out Hunter....

[marsh wing]

yup, and hunting trip if needed

[remote fox]

17/20 on Hunter, I better be done Hunting Trip lol

[marsh wing]

@distant obsidian you take the SE-5's off pmc guns or nah?

[gentle pulsar]

they're like 20k on flea, no reason to

[remote fox]

I stopped taking foregrips as much. They really did a number on attachments with that rework.

[marsh wing]

THIS FUCKER JUST PHASED THROUGH THE DOOR

[thorn token]

those havent been expensive in a long time

[marsh wing]

i literally just witnessed a scav phase through a closed door

no animation, no nothing

[rapid mulch]

[rapid mulch]

А ты что тут сидишь?

[prime epoch]

Меня забанили на русском сервере таркова

[rapid mulch]

Понял

[marsh wing]

@distant obsidian do you speak Germany or France by chance?

[marsh wing]

im working on learning how to speak Africa

[crude swift]

gotta love this garbage game. took "fall damage" from walking on staright level ground. as soon as it happens i get high packet disconnect. takes 5 minutes to load objects alone. die immediatly returning to raid

[marsh wing]

welcome to tarkov

[smoky scaffold]

that’s the best part

[willow tinsel]

why not learn Greenland

[rapid mulch]

You all in chat play pve?

[crude swift]

yeah defininetly dont have 2k hours having the game since alpha

[marsh wing]

no. We all play PVP

[marsh wing]

its a saying

[rapid mulch]

But this is pve chat

[crude swift]

ik im just tilted brother

[smoky scaffold]

Yes, this is the pve chat.

[forest patio]

exactly

[marsh wing]

then why ask?

[jovial cobalt]

[rapid mulch]

Good

[marsh wing]

@jovial cobalt speaks Dog

[forest patio]

we use the pve chat because we are pvp players.... moron

[smoky scaffold]

okay be nice wtf

[jovial cobalt]

better more on than more off

thats all i know tho

[marsh wing]

you can be sarcastic, but not mean

[smoky scaffold]

say sorry

[rapid mulch]

Bro you angry

[remote fox]

"Help me get into streaming" in his profile too, gotta be welcoming if you want to do that...

[marsh wing]

Dog, am i angry?

[jovial cobalt]

woof

[marsh wing]

good enough boy

[forest patio]

lol "dont be mean" 60, mean comments from every one in chat come right after me... nice

[remote fox]

Pricks get pricked

[fleet loom]

these sealed crates honestly have too much stuff

my stash is in shambles

[remote fox]

Yea they're annoying to even open lol

[forest patio]

takes one to know one i guess lmao

[remote fox]

I am a prick, but I reserve it for other pricks.

[gentle pulsar]

its annoying to get a shit ton of high tier ammo?

[forest patio]

right dumbass

[fleet loom]

i also just found my first ever acid green flare

and honestly its the perfect time

[glossy hound]

okay anyone else suddenly never seeing cultists on factory?

couple days ago it was like every other raid for me, now im 10+ dry

[prime epoch]

Fellas, why you not plays pvp?

[remote fox]

I haven't gotten many high tier ammo from them, mostly scrappy meds and food, my ammo boxes are already relatively full though especailly from labyrinth runs.

[marsh wing]

THIS FUCKING SCA

[glossy hound]

want to relax

[fleet loom]

why play pvp

[marsh wing]

im 4/5 on cultists fyi

[remote fox]

Acid Green flare? What?

[fleet loom]

makes all ai friendly or something up to a certain radius from the flare

[distant obsidian]

naw, took a few german classes 25 years ago though

[glossy hound]

anyone tried acid green on reserve?

[gentle pulsar]

dude you can literally get grenade launchers and every gun you get gives you the best in slot AP ammo for that ammo, like SSA AP for 5.56 and MAI AP for 7.62

[fleet loom]

I can have a boss horde on reserve

[marsh wing]

no german. Only Germany

[distant obsidian]

what about it

[rapid mulch]

Guys, bots in pve easy? Or not?

[marsh wing]

no

[prime epoch]

I play both, when wanna fight i play PvP, when want to relax and make challenges for me i play PvE

[distant obsidian]

no, afg I use only

[marsh wing]

for the recoil over ergo?

[rapid mulch]

Why?

[distant obsidian]

i dont take mods off gun anymore

[marsh wing]

because they arent hard

[distant obsidian]

afg is just the best now by far

[remote fox]

Oh I may have mis-read thinking of the "locked cases", the pistol case sized one. Yea I only opened the big weapon size crate like once, turned the rest over. Good call

[rapid mulch]

Boss? Or pmc?

[marsh wing]

both are hard

[prime epoch]

Настолько изичные что их обычные дикие перестреливают

[gentle pulsar]

the locked pistol cases are ass, the sealed weapon cases are amazing

[rapid mulch]

А ты сам в пве играешь?

[marsh wing]

i got a labrys note. Someone else got a Leddy

[prime epoch]

What wrong with you?

[prime epoch]

И пвп и пве

[rapid mulch]

И что больше заходит?

[distant obsidian]

because pvp play style is ass

I will play arena for pvp

I played PVP in the glory days, now its just rats holding corners. Weird style to play against and not fun

[gentle pulsar]

live tarkov pvp is just a fucking rat simulator
hear person first > stand still > catch person off guard

"im so good"

[distant obsidian]

arena for actual pvp.

[prime epoch]

да по разному, если хочется адреналина то в пвп, если например поделать ачивки или ивенты типа сейчас на резерве то пве

[rapid mulch]

А сколько рейдов у тебя в пве? Или часов примерно

[prime epoch]

вообще был бы пк с норм фпс играл бы только пвп

[distant obsidian]

#1387948715129573447 for a russian server guys

this is the english one.

[prime epoch]

рейдов 300 или 400

[rapid mulch]

Понял

[prime epoch]

Im banned on russian server for not reason

[remote fox]

Genuinely asking, but I don't see it specifically state English only?

[glossy hound]

bottom of the rules

[distant obsidian]

#rules probably

[marsh wing]

@jovial cobalt move them to Russian server please

[glossy hound]

Rule 9

[rapid mulch]

Там же читеры, крысы и тд

[distant obsidian]

for a good reason I bet

[remote fox]

Ah ok yea I wasn't aware.

[gentle pulsar]

why talk russian in a 99% english chat?
why have russian servers?

[remote fox]

Eh the reason I asked is because BSG IS a Russian dev, I figured they'd be more lenient about the main chats having Russian*.

[prime epoch]

Ну а в пве тех эмоций что в пвп просто нету

[marsh wing]

same reason my other server of 50 people has an english and a spanish chat

[gentle pulsar]

https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/1387948715129573447

This is game was create russian developers

[marsh wing]

[rapid mulch]

Let's respect each other.

[prime epoch]

im open it one week ago and all what i find is m60 lol

[glossy hound]

Respect is great, but we all have to follow the same rules, no?

[indigo knoll]

i want them to add the trijicon vcog its such a drippy scope and we need more black lpvo 🤤

[smoky scaffold]

tarkov made russians real

russia didn’t exist before tarkov

[rapid mulch]

I know, I don't speak Russian anymore.

[marsh wing]

did tarkov make my dog real?

[jovial cobalt]

basically

[marsh wing]

say bark in russian

[glossy hound]

what we really need is for them to let us get that sick black division gear

[prime epoch]

guys, russians love americans peoples i dont joke

[jovial cobalt]

ngl idk how i would
вуф вуф?

[prime epoch]

Гав

[cosmic patrol]

Ill respect someone with logical and rational sense. You seem to lack both

[marsh wing]

@jovial cobalt
хороший мальчик

[prime epoch]

no way

[indigo knoll]

REAL

i do wanna see them add black division outside of terminal

roaming like goons

[prime epoch]

nah

[remote fox]

Didn't they say there were doing something like adding BD elsewhere? Maybe that was a survey question.

[indigo knoll]

it would go hard to loot them tho ngl

[indigo knoll]

i heard that too tho i dont remember the details unfortunately

[cosmic patrol]

didnt they say bd might roam at X or Y points are some point in Z update?

[jovial cobalt]

yo the Z update

[marsh wing]

russians and americans do not generally like each other, ngl

[prime epoch]

Who?

[cosmic patrol]

the average russian update

[marsh wing]

ты любишь наши вооружённые силы

[prime epoch]

Im?

[jovial cobalt]

[prime epoch]

Братан, мне нравится их снаряга, и их оружие

[marsh wing]

im just translating for Autophage

[jovial cobalt]

same but for russian military shit

[marsh wing]

they like our military he said

[jovial cobalt]

its literally why i am a nerd for escape from tarkov because no other game does the russian equipment as good at least for small arms / infantry kinda stuff

[prime epoch]

Bro im wipe Azov with my squad

[marsh wing]

Я хочу погладить щенка

[dreamy mantle]

heiroglyphics

[marsh wing]

moon runes

[spiral pecan]

thats what im sayin

[marsh wing]

All these russians and their silly moon runes

[prime epoch]

I fought against the Azov and we defeated them and captured their weapons and patches

[marsh wing]

Мне просто нравится щенок

[cosmic patrol]

Youll meet your maker soon enough prolly. Get a meat grinder gifted to ur mom lul.

[glossy hound]

hmmm

i feel like there might be more than just rule 9 violations atm

[marsh wing]

interesting convo we got here

[jovial cobalt]

lol

[prime epoch]

not all wars is about good and evil

[marsh wing]

Я буду держать щенка в безопасности от плохого человека

[jovial cobalt]

yeah i dont wanna poke into this too much personally

[boreal gulch]

Holy Moly, they gutted my andonized red

[glossy hound]

the russian people are not their government, the same way the american people are not ours

[prime epoch]

Im back to Russian soil and life without need for money

[distant obsidian]

Probably trolling

He got banned from the Russian server so

[distant obsidian]

This

[prime epoch]

I saw a couple of mercenaries who would never return home honestly, I felt sorry for them

Im fight with azov year ago, all can true

[marsh wing]

You like the puppy?

[prime epoch]

why you dont believe ?

[cosmic patrol]

sure lmao. Source: trust me bro.

[prime epoch]

ok lol

[remote fox]

Conversation got real fun I see

[prime epoch]

Honestly I don't care, I just shared my experience

Youre so funny

[cosmic patrol]

u seem to care, uve mentioned it like 3-4 times lmao

[indigo knoll]

sanitar has killed me on top of dome 3 times now even at night wtf bro

him and his guards are insane

[cosmic patrol]

what puppy where

[remote fox]

Yea AI target acquisition is absolutely bonkers.

[indigo knoll]

like i dont even have time to fucking react

[glossy hound]

feels like sani and his boys are a bit more cracked than most

[indigo knoll]

its wild

[marsh wing]

@jovial cobalt is puppy

[remote fox]

I had a similar thing happen on LH at 2AM, I was on top of a mountain and PMCs like 200 feet below me screamed, when I was prone...they probably saw my forehead.

[prime epoch]

Just keep thinking that Azov is invincible.

[cosmic patrol]

Interesting.

[jovial cobalt]

[cosmic patrol]

No one is invincible lmfao.

[jaunty rock]

man, i just killed all 3 cultist and got a blody rusted key(nothing else) w?

[prime epoch]

You re from Estonia? Really?

[marsh wing]

Mi hablo Bhutanese

[fallen bay]

2 marked room keys in cultist, rb-bk and rb-pkpm LoL

[prime epoch]

At the same time, you don’t believe that I was in battles with Azov.

[jaunty rock]

@marsh wing wat u think

[marsh wing]

ohhh, azoz is a man made militia

[cosmic patrol]

Yes. Born and raised

[cosmic patrol]

Read above lmao

[marsh wing]

my key rates are the still the same, 2 keys+ per cultist

[jaunty rock]

i mean, i got rusty, the “imposible” one

[cosmic patrol]

Now imma delete my messages here and go back to sleep. Cba to argue with a dumbass at half 6

[fallen bay]

how many cultist spaw in a single raid?

[peak silo]

normal

[marsh wing]

where

[fallen bay]

factory

[marsh wing]

1 priest and 2-3 warriors

[prime epoch]

You know, when I was in Russia and didn’t even think about what I would see in Ukraine, I didn’t even know that it was possible

[marsh wing]

damn, my scav has a kotton beanie and DRD chest

[jaunty rock]

i got only 1 key 💔 idk if the rusty bloody key was the reason

[prime epoch]

Honestly, I don't wish war on anyone.

[worthy otter]

Stop talking about war and politics now

[remote fox]

Thank god

[marsh wing]

YAY! Chek here!

[cosmic patrol]

Ye im done chek. Just got annoyed by a war monger.

[worthy otter]

So report them in modmail

Don't argue for half an hour

[cosmic patrol]

Fuck.I completely forgot mod mail exists

[prime epoch]

Why do you care so much about me?

[worthy otter]

Yo! Move on.

[cosmic patrol]

Dumb question.

[prime epoch]

Im chill rn ok

[quartz storm]

this is odd...
I just got a message from prapor that someone got my stuff?
I thought it was impossible for insurance to fail on pve??

[gentle pulsar]

in theory, reserve xp potential is through the roof rn

[worthy otter]

Nah you're instigating, stop arguing or you're both getting muted for a very long time

[glossy hound]

was it labs?

[prime epoch]

Nah, just chill

[glossy hound]

if you can survive sanitar lol

[quartz storm]

no, I didn't run labs at all last night

[prime epoch]

lol

[quartz storm]

I was mainly doing customs and night factory

[cosmic patrol]

Imma go back to sleep. Apologies on my behalf Chek. Sorry for this, really, really dumb argument lul

[glossy hound]

weird

[remote fox]

Were you playing with anyone? I have seen insurance fail as well but uncertain why, I assumed something about playing with my friend, leaving gear something picked it up. Idk if PMC's "Extract" technically in any way.

[prime epoch]

maybe pve is weird? not a customs and factory

[glossy hound]

if you're on local, the server terminates as soon as you die, so your stuff cant be picked up. not the case on bsg servers though

[stable tinsel]

I have insured my guns, my gear, and all else and Dont always get it back. Or I get pieces of it back.

[remote fox]

That's what i suspected, but I keep seeing Taco saying "Playing on BSG servers doesn't do anything" or something

[gentle pulsar]

because it is a percent chance to even get an insured item back
basically if it doesnt show up, insurance failed cus it got yoinked anyways

[distant obsidian]

solo servers is the same. No difference

[remote fox]

So insurance is literally just a % chance?

[distant obsidian]

you either keep insuring with 2 different traders, or you dont insure everything

no, its 100%. If your in a team ai can take your shit of course. So get your team to stash your stuff

[vale atlas]

Playing on BSG servers does one thing, takes the load off your computer for AI behaviour. Thats about it

[remote fox]

Ah ok thank you, got confused.

[prime epoch]

I can't make a "friend from the west" because I play on ru servers and everyone takes bear lol

[glossy hound]

no, you will always get everything back if you die on local

with the rare exception of when they've bugged it out

[remote fox]

except typical laby/labs

[marsh wing]

except labs, labrys, and terminal

[glossy hound]

ye that

[remote fox]

Oh terminal ok...good to know

[prime epoch]

im get everything when plays on bsg servers

[glossy hound]

you can still get everything on bsg servers if it isnt picked up yeah

[distant obsidian]

terminal jsut resets you back to what you had in shoreline

[remote fox]

tbh I dont even wanna know much about terminal, I'm like 1 or 2 days away I think

[marsh wing]

cultists might be guaranteed on scav runs...

[prime epoch]

And why do you even care about loot in PvE?

[marsh wing]

Greed

[prime epoch]

really?

[remote fox]

I just don't wanna have to rebuild my guns allllll the time

[stable tinsel]

Loot is pretty much all I care about in pve

[prime epoch]

usec or bear and why?

[smoky scaffold]

yellow card from cultist

[marsh wing]

3 scav runs, 3 sets of cultists

[prime epoch]

why i only get from his is a PPBS😭😭

[stable tinsel]

I played as usec when I first started now I play as bear for the drip. I just love having stuff. I like having my stash built up in a way that I like. I have like our plate boxes, five thicc item cases all completely full. I love it.

[fleet loom]

bruh I stg this grenade launcher does nothing

[glossy hound]

cant kill them as a scav without losing karma though right?

[prime epoch]

Why u play scav in pve?

[marsh wing]

no

[fleet loom]

4 different pmcs tanked bombs to the feet

[prime epoch]

what about goons?

[marsh wing]

because i can play the game however i want

[remote fox]

I like to scav for peaceful runs. 6+ scav rep I can roam looking for FIR quest items

[hushed lance]

I've been running night factory for a while and haven't found a single cultist. I need ya'lls luck out here for these keys.

[stable tinsel]

Playing as scav is awesome. You get to ranks up fence and not worry about other scavs.

[gusty reef]

is there any way to root out Partisan in PVE aside from just waiting
I know in PVE PMC karma doesn't exist

[prime epoch]

Dude I was just asking

[marsh wing]

why are you immediately assuming im upset

the answer to your question is "Because i can do what i want"

[prime epoch]

Is pmc raids in pve is not peaceful?

[gusty reef]

because scav rep matters for a lot of things???

[stable tinsel]

Best way I’ve found is to run to woods and go to that one bunker with the marker circle. He shows up like literally every single time I got there.

[fleet loom]

cultist bunker

[remote fox]

Scav AI and Bosses everywhere, sometimes I Will also just walk past the boss to check something. My primary Scav runs are Streets, I go check for Rusted Bloody and hit IT firm/Relax room.

[glossy hound]

are you just trying to instigate people or what

[fleet loom]

just stop feeding that guy

[gusty reef]

I'll start doing that I guess after I hunt goons for snowball lol

goons, partisan, and sriracha are the only ones I have left

[glossy hound]

to corroborate what others have said, cultist bunker on local servers is like an 80% chance of party showing up lol

[gusty reef]

amazing to know

[prime epoch]

no no no i just really dont understand because pmc raides is more profitable

[glossy hound]

and if you have 6.0 scav rep, nothing will shoot you except sometimes pmcs

thus, peaceful

[fleet loom]

the only reason i want rep is for btr and transit storage

[gentle pulsar]

scavs are still a viable way to obtain items as well as obtain things to make money with your pmc

[glossy hound]

ngl with the event right now if you get lucky on reserve you can come out loaded

[jovial cobalt]

i cant wait to scav main in pve when scav life dlc is added

[prime epoch]

How to fast got it?

[marsh wing]

4 keys from a scav run, fyi

[glossy hound]

sometimes the bosses will shoot each other on accident it becomes a bloodbath

[jovial cobalt]

taking car extracts i guess

[prime epoch]

show it

[stable tinsel]

If you go to shoreline there is a two story building by that tall tower thing by the radio tower. For some reason the goons never push me when I go in there. Neither does partisan he just sits outside.

[glossy hound]

is this "no, you cannot kill them without losing rep" or "no, you can kill them"

[remote fox]

I would look at the wiki, but generally run the car extract on each map a ton. Each time you do a car extract, it gives you less scav rep.

[marsh wing]

one sec

[prime epoch]

I've done it like this many times already, but now I get little for it

[uneven vapor]

If you want guaranteed but slower just go ground zero on repeat

[marsh wing]

the more you use the extracts, the less rep you get

[quartz storm]

nah, I was alone

[stable tinsel]

Ground zero is my like favorite map now

[prime epoch]

i literally say it

[uneven vapor]

Are you okay?

[quartz storm]

honestly if you want scav rep
just go factory and avenge people
easy rep, easy loot, good times to be had

[uneven vapor]

If there's a gun to your head, blink twice

[prime epoch]

this is really good map for pvp

[uneven vapor]

This is pve friend

We aren't playing for pvp

[remote fox]

Scav survives are .1, "Assisting a scav" is like .02 per scav avenged. Seek out fights, kill the PMCs that killed scavs. Even if you die you get the scav rep for the kills.

[quartz storm]

im on a scav cooldown of 10 minutes right now, so I can rip through scav runs near constantly for both fun random loot and rep increases

[glossy hound]

you get rep for each scav that was killed by a pmc that you killed

4 key scav run. No Rep drop

[uneven vapor]

And pmc's aren't juiced enough to warrant caring about pvp much

[stable tinsel]

Yee. You get that big machine gun that you can lay out people in the courtyard area like you are in D-Day. The grenade launcher gun thing and no bosses to worry about. A bunch of computers to where you get gpus like every other raid and the loot to build stuff or sell? Amazing.

[glossy hound]

sick, ty

[quartz storm]

at what scav rep do you start spawning with red flares every now and again?
or did they tone that down

[glossy hound]

ill risk my 6.0 for it xD

[glossy hound]

like 5 in my experience

[marsh wing]

im also 3/3 on raids and cultists as scav

[uneven vapor]

I mean ig.

[uneven vapor]

Can you kill cultists as scav?

[prime epoch]

it works only at PMCs, who kill scavs?

[marsh wing]

yes. No rep drop

[quartz storm]

I know it will probably be AGES, if it even drops this year, but I look forward to seeing more about the scav life dlc

[uneven vapor]

Thats so fire

[prime epoch]

what about goons?

[marsh wing]

im doing PMC run, scav run, PMC run, scav run

[remote fox]

If you are a scav, and a PMC kills another scav, when you kill that PMC, you get scav rep. Hopefully that is clear enough.

[jovial cobalt]

yes

[marsh wing]

good luck with that

[stable tinsel]

The firefights in ground zero are sexy too. Glass exploding all around. Tight fights in hallways and stairwells. Pmcs have super predictable spawns so you can rush them and have fun every match. It’s lit.

[glossy hound]

i got 2/3 with a shotgun as a scav once

[quartz storm]

the best part is, if you don't feel like killing smugglers each scav run on factory usually nets you enough roubles to buy a key off the flea market to open the case you find

[prime epoch]

all bosses for me is easy, but kaban...

[uneven vapor]

I feel like we aren't playing the same map

[glossy hound]

wasnt able to kill big pipe though, he swung the corner right after knight and i wasnt fast enough

[uneven vapor]

[stable tinsel]

What lvl are you

It has two different levels for ground zero

[uneven vapor]

60

[marsh wing]

NO MORE LBT GEAR NEEDED LETS GOOOO

[stable tinsel]

Are you using super meta gear when you play it

[marsh wing]

NO MORE STUPID FUCKING YELLOW CHECKMARKS

[marsh wing]

[uneven vapor]

I tend to run "meta" guns but I usually just play pretty builds

[marsh wing]

I will not be accepting Drip out next time

[gusty reef]

nevermind Kollontay jammed my shit and then beat me to death like an alcoholic father

[marsh wing]

use ppsh or that other gun

[fleet loom]

dammit, u cant put sealed weapon cases in a thicc case

I was gonna make a new collection

[gusty reef]

He hasn't been problematic my entire day he just caught me off guard

[quartz storm]

colonoscopy is so russian he exudes an aura of pure disuse that makes your gun jam up for fear he'll try to fire it

[uneven vapor]

Are those sealed cases loaded? I haven't been able to play

[gusty reef]

the sealed weapons cases contain 100% meta ammo and decent attachments and the other ones can have great hideout stuff

[marsh wing]

i should probably meet LK and Jirachi at some point in my first wipe shouldnt i?

[uneven vapor]

Thats baller

[fleet loom]

they have pretty great shit but nothing too crazy

[quartz storm]

I got labrys notes from a locked case

[marsh wing]

same. Someone pulled a leddy the other day

[glossy hound]

okay so TIL that cultists wont inherently attack you as a scav, but they will knife you if you get close lmao

[marsh wing]

yes

[stable tinsel]

Aight. Listen here. You’re going to throw on that banelli semi auto shotgun with the thirteen round tube. A boss sight on top so you got the little green laser. An absolute fuck ton of regular buckshot. None of that magnum or slug nonsense. Then an M16 with acog and fmj rounds or better yet an AKM iron sight. You’re going to full send boi. Baseball hat for vibes. Grenades like crazy. How god intended ground zero to be played.

[remote fox]

Express buckshot is glorious

[jovial cobalt]

[marsh wing]

awww, little hammer

[uneven vapor]

I'm gonna give it a shot when I can play next

[jovial cobalt]

big hammer

[marsh wing]

ill show you my hammer ;)

[stable tinsel]

Rock Level five plates at max. Play the doom music. Unleash your inner scav slayer.

[uneven vapor]

Promise?

[jovial cobalt]

[uneven vapor]

That shit is saved on my Spotify

[marsh wing]

go listen to Doom Crossing

[remote fox]

Daniel Deluxe, Star Eater specifically. Amazing murder song.

[covert nest]

what maps is best for cultist right now

[marsh wing]

factory

[jovial cobalt]

isnt night factory 33% rn

[uneven vapor]

If imagine factory

Since they're all 33

[marsh wing]

yus. im also 3/3 on my scav

[jovial cobalt]

im updating arena

[stable tinsel]

Remember when you play ground zero you arent trying to be accurate. You are using volume of fire for accuracy. Just point and spray. It’s more fun.

[jovial cobalt]

im probably going to suck so bad i havent played in like a month

[marsh wing]

Its okay if you suck @jovial cobalt

[jovial cobalt]

[glossy hound]

idk their spawn rate seems...weird. ive done like 15 pmc runs on night factory today solo, no cultists. just did a scav (which forces bsg servers) and i got cultists

[remote fox]

Anyone been on interchange since smugglers? struggling to find PMCs inside the mall

[indigo zodiac]

did 1.0 change AI PMC's kits or are they all still weird stuff?

[marsh wing]

last scav i killed had a dead bird on him, idk tho

[indigo zodiac]

Idk what a dead bird is but I'll take that as yes

wait like an actual dead bird or a weapon

[dawn echo]

why do i always have 200+ ping in local games on factory?

[marsh wing]

actual dead bird

[indigo zodiac]

oh..

[glossy hound]

that's impossible

[marsh wing]

it might have been a bluejay

[indigo zodiac]

Thats... edible

[dawn echo]

its what says top right

[remote fox]

There's a bug or something I Think, I constantly have a ping warning but I'm offline so it's pointless.

Im at 330 right now.

[dawn echo]

ah isee

[marsh wing]

yeah, i get it too

best to restart your game to get it to leave or it might leave on its own

[dawn echo]

i restarted my pc already

[marsh wing]

i had 3 raids where it told me my ping was in the 500's

[marsh wing]

no pc, just game lol

[glossy hound]

dont mind me, just cultist hunting with a vpo-215 lmao

i stg if i can only get cultists as a scav now im gonna be pissed

[marsh wing]

drop a pmc, grab their weapon and armor, push cultists

[jovial cobalt]

have you escaped yet

[marsh wing]

no, im not even halfway to kappa yet

i still got like 50-60 tasks left

[jovial cobalt]

dayymmmm

[marsh wing]

AT LEAST I KNOW HOW TO CLEAN THE DISHES WITHOUT USING MY TONGUE

[jovial cobalt]

that was only ONE TIME

[marsh wing]

1 more scav raid and im done for the night. I cant stay up until 1am

[remote fox]

Quitter

[marsh wing]

yeah, and my mac and cheese tasted like your spit!

[marsh wing]

earlier i go to bed, earlier i can get up

im 26 now, i cant stay up all night anymore

[remote fox]

So instead of XP waste...XP investment? Trying to get those dividends?

[marsh wing]

yup

[remote fox]

33 I don't wanna hear it lol

I wish I had this game when I was in school

[marsh wing]

okay boomer

[jovial cobalt]

i used to stay up frequently until 7 am

oops

[remote fox]

I say this in a friendly manner.
GET ABSOLUTELY FUCKED

[marsh wing]

i used to as well when i was 19 and unemployed

[marsh wing]

go cry about it UNC

[quartz storm]

man hideout skills are worth it
I'm getting 64 hours out of every metal fuel can now

[remote fox]

Not gonna lie, laughed hard as fuck at unc

[marsh wing]

yeah, max time possible is like 900hrs when full, max hideout skill, and solar

[marsh wing]

i hate using lingo. I still dab

[jovial cobalt]

67

[remote fox]

I hate 67 but I do the juggle motion in my head every time

[gusty reef]

I finally was able to get my grubby hands on my first priest of the night
literally every cultist game I've queued today they committed suicide

[glossy hound]

okay so scav is not 100% cultist chance

[marsh wing]

as the romans would say. VI VII

[indigo knoll]

man i wish you could obtain the pkp outside of kaban

[fleet loom]

just kill kaban silly

[glossy hound]

if you have 6 rep you can hope he dies on reserve lol

[indigo knoll]

TRUE

[fleet loom]

and if hes not there hit chek 13

[indigo knoll]

its not hard but its a hassle

[marsh wing]

i need a bf or gf or just something guys. Im getting lonely

[indigo knoll]

pkp spawns in marked rooms or just chek 13

[quartz storm]

kaban is not the problem
it's the bus-load of random gun wielding psychopaths that surround him at every waking moment
the ammo I spend flushing that rat out of his hole is ridiculous

[fleet loom]

I just throw one nade at the turret, look at it. kill like 3 people runnin to it in just a few shots and the rest are usually behind the car in the back

the majority of the ammo I use killing kaban is well, on kaban.

[valid apex]

so do we get any thing cool for this event quest

[jovial cobalt]

[marsh wing]

im now 4/4 with cults on scavs

using grizzly is fucking PAINFUL

[jovial cobalt]

i hate grizzly it feels like overkill

[marsh wing]

bro

[jovial cobalt]

maybe except for terminal or something

[marsh wing]

it took 4-5 rounds each

oh, no im talking the 12g round

[jovial cobalt]

oops

i also dont like any of the slugs so thats real

[distant obsidian]

best rewards you can ever get in the game. Good ammo

[gusty reef]

nade NSV, run into container, peek and melt whoever is unfortunate enough to be outside the container, kill like 4 people then push Kaban

[marsh wing]

like, point blank, they suck ass

against PACA too

[gusty reef]

the last quest in the chain isn't even worth it lmao

stashing 10 contraband for an iotv with tier 5 plates

[glossy hound]

spear quest is also awful

[marsh wing]

PRIEST NADED HIMSELF BABYU

only 2 keys this run. chek 13 and vo

[gusty reef]

contraband boxes and weapons cases are literally free, then you just kill smugglers as you're passing their areas
like when I go to RUAF on customs just stop by the factory and get the 4 or 5 kills

[distant obsidian]

o well, easy enough anyways

[marsh wing]

just to be sure. I cant use the boxes for anything other than the quests, right?

[distant obsidian]

no reason not to

[gusty reef]

you can open them for free shit

[glossy hound]

yeah but you get far more from the three weapon cases than the quest

[lethal garnet]

interesting

[marsh wing]

the contraband ones?

[distant obsidian]

mod fed

[marsh wing]

i know the pistol case i can open

[gusty reef]

oh those no I thought you meant the cases

[glossy hound]

ive got 4 msgls and 2 fn40s from those weapon cases, i love em

[marsh wing]

cultists are free Death Shadows for anyone wanting some

btw, im currently 4/4 on scav raids with cultists. So, do with that what you will

its not guaranteed, but, ya know

[jovial cobalt]

selling that information to chinese data scrappers rn

[marsh wing]

sell me your info

[jovial cobalt]

ok ill post it all here in a public chat :D

[marsh wing]

20$ ill give you my social

do you need a green card marriage?

[jovial cobalt]

lmfaoo

[marsh wing]

only 1 condition btw

[jovial cobalt]

just give me ur riches

[marsh wing]

you do the dishes without using your tongue

i dont want my mac and cheese tasting like the inside of your mouth

[jovial cobalt]

idk its hard to agree with that

[marsh wing]

free pieces of cheese rolled up without pills in them

and you dont have to sleep at the foot of the bed unless you want to

11 marked keys in 2-3hrs fyi

[glossy hound]

i have not seen cultists more than the one time i died earlier lmao

that first scav run

[marsh wing]

im 4/4, but im going to bed

i need the sleep

[glossy hound]

give me your luck before you go to bed

[marsh wing]

a0uhfse-0iufnhp

[glossy hound]

ty

[marsh wing]

There. Its yours. Just send it back before you log off

[glossy hound]

will do

[nimble drift]

any ideas on how long quests are gonna stay?

[distant obsidian]

we never know

[marsh wing]

my guess is tuesday tbh

tuesday or thursday. This wont last forever

[quartz storm]

right now im on the 10 locked weapon case quest

im halfway through, hitting dorm 314 for em

[remote fox]

Air drops/any marked room seems to work

Streets seems good, open a marked room, send it back with BTR, go to next one

[fleet loom]

just killed the same scav twice within 10 seconds. exact same kit, name and all

[odd oak]

Do people buy kiba arms often

The key

[remote fox]

I've sold mine before, but I would usually undercut. I don't think Kiba is valuable

[odd oak]

Do people buy it often enough for it to get sold

[remote fox]

If you undercut the sale price, it should.
Just check the timers of offers, if the cheapest offer has a low post timer, then people aren't buying.

I have sold mine for a mil or so in the past, but that was weeks ago

[odd oak]

What should the timer look like is 11 hours ok

I’m new to Tarkov auction house thingy

[remote fox]

11 hours means it's a relatively new offer, if the timer is red, that means it's expiring soon, which means it has been up for a while, so nobody is interested in that price

I forget what the initial posting timer is, 24 hours? So that means they've had it up half a day

[odd oak]

Ohh hmm damn maybe I won’t then

[remote fox]

KIBA is okay for lower levels, can get you some gear, and if you have 11SR you can extract rather quickly. Higher level I think KIBA is just underwhelming. They should add BP ammo spawns in there to make it better.

Just to highlight, you need an outer & inner door key for KIBA, I see you said you're newer to the auction house at least.

[odd oak]

Yeah nvm I won’t be using it until the quest

[remote fox]

Currently, with the bosses spawning only on Reserve, now might not be a bad time to run KIBA store if you have both keys. Not sure what quest you are waiting on

[jaunty rock]

man sometimes i forget about the pmc can kill the cultist 💔

[junior tapir]

ak50 being flea locked makes me sad

[odd oak]

Light keeper

[gentle pulsar]

spend 30 minutes killing every single guard and every single boss one by one on reserve only to die to some moron ass logic of barrikada slug penning my level 6 plate

39 pen btw!

[remote fox]

Was your thorax messed up? All I Can think is the damage from blunt, Idk the transfer math though

Barrikada has a lot of raw damage I think

[gentle pulsar]

no, i run injector case with 3 diff stages of healing stims specifically for that reason when i fight bosses

[remote fox]

Ah my stims are mostly for speed, gotta go fast ma boi

I carry 2 cases in my container lol, 1 for speed, 1 for "Oh shit I'm dying"

[gentle pulsar]

well going fast doesn't help putting a bullet into a boss without dying lol

idk man, just so fucking annoying to die to something like that especially because the boss tanked a headshot before oneshotting me to thorax through that plate

[vale atlas]

AI plays by its own rules

[remote fox]

Ha I hear you, not gonna defend it, just trying to think of logical reasons why it could happen. I've had night ruiners before too

[vale atlas]

Dont question it, just suffer as nikita intended

[shy pollen]

I don’t play reserve😔 coughs in like 13 reserve marked keys I gotta use.

[distant obsidian]

reserve is the easiest map in the game, outside of the event

[remote fox]

I love Reserve....when it doesn't have EVERY FUCKING BOSS

Red Rebel makes for such efficient runs

[distant obsidian]

reserve is even better with al lscav bosses

[gentle pulsar]

its ONLY ANNOYING because i genuinely took the time to kill every single boss
reshala, kaban, glukhar, sanitar, shturman, tagilla, ALL of their guards-

And who do i die to? Fucking kollontay.

I ONLY WANT THE XP

[shy pollen]

Glukhar😭

[distant obsidian]

and? easy

[shy pollen]

I’m still new mind you.

[remote fox]

Glukhar is only difficult because of his grenade accuracy

Random silent grenades all the way from Agartha

[shy pollen]

And his guards in my opinion

[jaunty rock]

not that hard, only in open areas

[remote fox]

If he is at K/Train Station I don't even wanna bother. Underground at D or D2/Knights, that's alright.

[distant obsidian]

again, not hard. Easy to know when they are up and where

[remote fox]

Can you elaborate on how it's easy to know when they are up and where? Do you just assume hectic gunfire is them?

[jaunty rock]

use the map at your advantange just wait him in a corner 🔥

[shy pollen]

How many hours do you have perhaps?

[jaunty rock]

depends on the sound of the gun

and, how much he shots, the boss/guards hit way more than some pmc and scavs

[remote fox]

I recognize few guns....I have 6.5k hours but can only REALLY recognize the SVD lol

[shy pollen]

6.5K?????

[distant obsidian]

2-3k between 2 accounts

[shy pollen]

I have 235….

[distant obsidian]

I learned how to deal with gluy when reserve droped

[jaunty rock]

same

[distant obsidian]

when I had 300.

[shy pollen]

(And most of the time I just spent goofing off)

[distant obsidian]

in pvp.

[jaunty rock]

well not really, 400 but half of that is waiting the game 🔥

[remote fox]

I have been playing since like 2017. There is at least 1500 hours of me in stash

[shy pollen]

What could possibly make the game that entertaining?

[distant obsidian]

2016 for me I think or 17

[gentle pulsar]

aw cmon, im sure you know the obvious guns
im sitting at like 5.4k myself, i can pinpoint the SVD and Mosin like its going off beside me

[jaunty rock]

the game itself

[distant obsidian]

in that range.

[jaunty rock]

updates events

[remote fox]

The games gun mechanics, movement mechanics, and armor is all extremely unique.

[shy pollen]

Eh good point

[distant obsidian]

game is self lol. What game is even remotely like tarkov?

[remote fox]

You will not find another game with the depth of Tarkov, and that hurts. Arma is closest and the gunplay in that is dogshit

[jaunty rock]

and, it is better with friends

[remote fox]

IS IT NULL?

[shy pollen]

Something I don’t have😔

[jaunty rock]

helo im null

[remote fox]

Half the time i play with a friend they wanna run off and loot everything instead of focus on objective lol

Oh but marked key is right here!!
Ok that's like 5 extra minutes

[jaunty rock]

the greed they talk about in the bible

[remote fox]

I'm tryna QUEST mah bwoi

[quaint sentinel]

bro .. i can't kill the priest because he always blows himself with the grenade.. wth

[jaunty rock]

i play at 20fps and i still enjoy the game(sometimes)

[remote fox]

I would lower as much as you can, but even then, the game runs poorly on a lot of systems.

[distant obsidian]

kill hi mquicker then

[shy pollen]

Idk my pc runs at 37C on streets

[jaunty rock]

try to rush him while u hear his nade

[shy pollen]

I run no issue

[odd oak]

Fun gunfights closest you get is abi but that’s not even as fun

[jaunty rock]

i cant open streets

[shy pollen]

I haven’t check my fps, probably 60-90

[jaunty rock]

abi is way more casual, with 100 hours and you already did everything

[remote fox]

There is a setting "Lower Texture Resolution on Streets" or something, make sure that's enabled.

[jaunty rock]

i cant get in raid

[remote fox]

Can you elaborate, what happens

[shy pollen]

Everything is on highest setting:3

[jaunty rock]

somehow i cant get in bsg servers

[distant obsidian]

he run the game at 600x400 res as well btw

hes on some laptop that wasnt even good 15 years ago

[jaunty rock]

yes 🔥 well not really like 1020x709

[distant obsidian]

or thaT

[odd oak]

I can run and gun everyone there and it’s boring

[remote fox]

Wait are you serious about a really old laptop

[shy pollen]

Well no wonder it can’t run streets🌞

[thorn token]

hey so quicki question, i'm on the ticket task where fence has you kill pmcs and avoid scavs. i ran streets and killed scavs and that failed it, am i cooked for savior now?

[jaunty rock]

when the game launched on steam it didnt let me download, now i can lol

[distant obsidian]

IUT RESTARTS

[shy pollen]

I think you can redo the quest

[remote fox]

just re-do it

[thorn token]

aight just wanted to make sure it didn't perma fail me

[remote fox]

Are you using really old hardware or something?

[shy pollen]

Yeah that’d be dumb lol

[remote fox]

Lmao, nah you good. I failed that task at least 100 times this past month.

I ignore that task until I am ready to commit to dying if I see a scav

[thorn token]

looking at theyre already here story chapter

[jaunty rock]

ye, i mean it has 12gb and 512ssd, but its more like a office* laptop, it doesnt have a graphic card

[thorn token]

a simple button push ruining savior

[remote fox]

Bro that hurts my soul as both an IT pro, and a gamer

[jaunty rock]

ill buy a better one in a mothn anyway

[shy pollen]

I think I hate chek-13

[jaunty rock]

ik, its a mistery how i can open tarkov

[remote fox]

In all honesty, it kind of is strange you can lol

[odd oak]

Nothing good?

[jaunty rock]

they actually did performance

[odd oak]

I run a asus 17tuf or something like that with extra ram

[jaunty rock]

my laptop is the prove that they are working

[remote fox]

Abandoned Factory key way more effective for loot imo.
Chek 13 is expensive because of the quest requirement

[shy pollen]

I have NEVER gotten a keycard from it

[remote fox]

I've gotten keycards from it

[dawn echo]

both abandoned factory and chek 13 give you the weapon case, i been opening both

[jaunty rock]

im sorry but which map is that one?

[remote fox]

11sr but it IS a keycard

[shy pollen]

Every marked room does

[dawn echo]

yeah

[mystic trench]

Got to car extract on Shoreline, realized I had no money. Had to go all the way to tunnel. I have one M.U.L.E left to bail me out of those situations.

[shy pollen]

Streets,

[odd oak]

I have like 2-3 chek13 and 4 abandoned factory

[dawn echo]

they keys were like 3mil this afternoon idk why

[remote fox]

Run them bitches dude, send your loot back via BTR, run the rest of the map

[dawn echo]

bought a bunch

[jaunty rock]

somehow i manage to get level 41 max the traders(no the lightkeeper guy) and no ref, rn im stuck in gunsmith 25, praying that fence gives me a pkp

[shy pollen]

Oh yeah it’s bc night factory cultists are 33%

[dawn echo]

ah welp

[shy pollen]

And they always have marked keys😭

[jaunty rock]

i got 8 markets in one raid

[dawn echo]

i got cultists on factory 3 raids in a row just now got like 9 marked keys

[jaunty rock]

lucky, just wait until u do 20 raids and no finding them

[odd oak]

Idk how to get to chek13 bc im just trying to get weapon crates not for quest but for that ammo

[jaunty rock]

night factory

[odd oak]

I have the key idk how to get to the place

[dawn echo]

i was farming the locked cases to complete the last mission lol

[odd oak]

I have 2-3 of the key

[jaunty rock]

ye, they are easy to find on factory too

the one next to the safe

[odd oak]

I never have any luck on cultist farming

[jaunty rock]

give a try to night factory

[odd oak]

45 raids no cultists customs

[jaunty rock]

weird

[remote fox]

What do you mean you don't know how to get to it

[jaunty rock]

i mean, ofc in customs is a pain

[odd oak]

I don’t run streets often enough tbh

[spice saffron]

cat get in raid been in queue for half an hour

[jaunty rock]

but remenber, on factory you just trow a nade, if u hear a scav reset, if u dont just check the map

[jaunty rock]

try local

wait, u can only play it on local?

[remote fox]

Streets doesn't have local if he's doing streets

[odd oak]

Should I go eat and give factory a few shots

[dawn echo]

wait theres no achievement for the event missions?

[remote fox]

No Kingweeb

I did em, didn't get anything. There is like 5 missions I think.

[jaunty rock]

i cant, i was happy about all bosses going to reserve, cuz i wanted to kill the woods guy(i just dont like woods i get lost easily) and the pkp, but they made it bsg servers only 💔 i need to kill kaban smh

[odd oak]

That’s why I’m not doing the quests

[dawn echo]

yeah i just finished the last one didnt get achievement

[remote fox]

Wait, can you not get on Reserve now, bceause it's on BSG servers?

[odd oak]

I’m keeping my crates

[jaunty rock]

idk why it doesnt let me in bsg, and takes more, maybe it is cuz it needs to load stuff isntead of creating idk

[remote fox]

Saint, It's kinda late but I could run a Streets tomorrow or something to show you Chek 13, I also have RBK if you need "The Door" for Mechanic

[jaunty rock]

ye i cant

[odd oak]

I think I have the door quest

[remote fox]

Null is this literally a work computer

[daring trout]

Anyone actually finding locked cases anywhere? I have killed tons of smugglers and only find keys...I have only gottena locked case out of the first red flare I shot and all the rest only have gun cases.

[odd oak]

I’m nae

[jaunty rock]

prob, i bought it long time ago, wasnt that smart so i bought the cheapest thing ♿

[remote fox]

Factory office 1st floor has 1 spawn in each room, only 1 can be there, there is also 1 in the medical lab on factory.

[odd oak]

I found one at ruaf on customs but I died to partisan

[jaunty rock]

ill buy a 3k laptop next mothn

[remote fox]

I would just run factory for the small locked case, run that first floor of office, then the medical room, extract.

[jaunty rock]

but cuz im not smart enought i asked to a friend to help me 🤓

[daring trout]

Thank you, gonna try that now

[jaunty rock]

and u can farm cultist while u do it 🤑

[odd oak]

Cultist farm and case farm I might go do that

[daring trout]

yep, going at night

[remote fox]

Both are near the window of the first floor, then you gotta go through the window to the breach room for the 3rd spawn. Then in medical it's all on 2nd floor. Good luck

[jaunty rock]

what those crates have?

[odd oak]

Idk I never got to open mine

[remote fox]

It's a quest, they're kind atrash otherwise imo. Food/meds and a "Contraband Box" which is quest.

[jaunty rock]

im too bored to go into a mal that i dont know and wait 30m everytime just to get lost

[jaunty rock]

you can get contraband boxes from cultist btw

i got the bloddy rusty key from a cultist

[remote fox]

Didn't know, thankfully none of my cultists had one

[odd oak]

Weapon crates are just in marked rooms and air drops right?

[remote fox]

I got a RBK from a random scav on...customs I think. It was a strange map not connected to Streets

Correct Saint, as far as I've seen.

[jaunty rock]

i think it is luck, but only in the backpacks

[jaunty rock]

same lmao, rn i have 2( i got the firts one yesterday)

[remote fox]

The locked pistol case thing is random dufflebags and the designated spawns on their wiki

[jaunty rock]

i need to kill the goons for a quest

already went to customs 3 times and no goons

[remote fox]

Yea....I did 10 raids today, killed them with 3 hp, I had an arm and 2 legs

Wish I was recording that one because it was.....disgustingly unprofessional

[jaunty rock]

my only problem when killing goons is bird eye

mf camps me, even worse than the cultist

[odd oak]

Bird eye is my favorite to kill

[remote fox]

If you kill the rest i think he is like, forced to rush you

[odd oak]

If u kill knight first he’s easier

Or you just snipe him from far

[jaunty rock]

1024x600

[thorn token]

goons are weird, last time i fought them, big pipe and birdeye rushed first while knight stayed at weather station

[remote fox]

I want to throw up

[jaunty rock]

i dont see shit and even less on day time

thats the reason im hunting them on night

its way easier for me to hunt them on the dark

[remote fox]

Idk how you got this shit to run on that machine, I don't even wanna know more about the computer

[jaunty rock]

lol

luck prob

fun fact, if i use a zoomed scope it lags me

in big maps* and depends the scope

[remote fox]

I've heard that Tarkov is heavily CPU reliant, and seen similar things on my own resource monitor, so it makes sense, but it still disgusts me

My GPU is barely used by this friggin game, would do plenty more.

[jaunty rock]

prob i have a good cpu

[jaunty rock]

i have no gpu(or atleast just a really trash one)

[cosmic patrol]

I have.... a card.

[jaunty rock]

i have screen

[cosmic patrol]

I have.

[barren kiln]

if someone could trade their cultist luck with me thatd be great. factory farming isnt going great

[odd oak]

Wanna try together I’m nae

[remote fox]

I only see them on Shoreline, and that's rare too.

[jaunty rock]

dont worry son, it will be better

[west mist]

guys, will planes keep dropping stuff at the site you red flare or did a wild one just happen to spawn in the same place?

[jaunty rock]

factory night meta

smh i still need to use my only red flare

[barren kiln]

im alright, thank you tho. im doing the spawn in, chuck a nade, hope for silence method. quick 2 to 3 minute runs. been 3 hours now tho so its a nasty luck

[jaunty rock]

damn

the max i been without cultist was like 10-15 times

12 m of loading screen to get out of raid and get in

[trail sail]

Hm maybe flares could have a set landing location and you got lucky with the same spot

[barren kiln]

biggest time eater is loading back to main menu

[jaunty rock]

i just want to have 16 of each market frfr

the greed

[trail sail]

Last night I had to wait 10 mins to get back into menu and then when it happened again I alt f4'd and the game won't even load anymore till right now

[spiral raven]

When you call an airdrop it lands where you shoot the flare

[mystic trench]

It lands somewhere nearby in my experience.

I just did it 2 minutes ago.

[spiral raven]

Yeah it seems it’s where the flare goes not exactly where you stand but it’s not like it’ll be the other side of the map

[quartz storm]

man, im loving having this many dorms 314 pulls
ya boi just got a yellow keycard, a black keycard, a labs entry card, AND a tagilla statue

[mystic trench]

Agreed! Some games you can really pinpoint where you want the airdrop. Tarkov seems pretty "general vicinity"

[barren kiln]

oklay so for clarity because for a second i thought i finally got one. if cultists spawn then there will be no scavs?

[trail sail]

I assume there's set spawn points for them (or drop points) and the game chooses whichever is closest to you instead of right on your area so it doesn't get stuck on roofs or such

[barren kiln]

for night factory anyway

[trail sail]

Not all the time but yes there'll be way less scavs

[dawn echo]

bros i just encountered an invincible smuggler on lighthouse, i shot him in the face for about 200 rounds (4 drums point blank), dudes not dying, wtf is happening?

[trail sail]

Could be hes already dead and the servers just desynced

[dawn echo]

bro its that old bug, i cant damage anything in the raid now lmao

[trail sail]

Classic bsg

[barren kiln]

is there a normal spawn area for them or is it just everywhere given the map size?

[trail sail]

Anywhere basically

I would look for outskirts of the map first

[weary ice]

I just got 2 gl from sealed weapon crates are they any good on pve?

[thorn token]

tagilla shouldn't spawn on interchange correct?

[gusty reef]

Lowkey useless but exceptionally funny

[gusty reef]

No scav bosses spawn anywhere but Reserve.

[weary ice]

Funny = good gun

[odd oak]

Correct

[thorn token]

the reality is, what do you have to lose?

[safe olive]

anyone else having a fun time being jumped by Glukar, killa, tagilla, and reshala at the same time?

best time in tarkov I swear

[distant obsidian]

I love it

[safe olive]

also might just be me but are the cultists dropping only reserve keys? only other marked room I've got off them was chek.13

[barren kiln]

okay so i finally got some and the rat bastards were exfil camping gate 3 XD

[odd oak]

Haha nice

[safe olive]

not sure why shturman was down in D2, SVDS doesn't pair well with CQB

[mystic trench]

Do smugglers drop red flares?

I forget where I got mine.

[tough pawn]

i am 90/100 for killa and now i have to go to reserve

[glossy hound]

decided to try and find the cultists on customs.....didnt find any cultists, but i did manage to kill knight and big pipe with the mounted mg from fortress lmao

[pseudo kayak]

where tf even is killa usually

on reserve*

[glossy hound]

hermetic door bunker

tagilla is there too usually

[pseudo kayak]

uhhhh that is uhhh

from dome is that just under it

[glossy hound]

i can stream you a tour on my scav if you want

not connected to dome

it's the other bunker

[pseudo kayak]

ah

[glossy hound]

if you have 6.0 scav rep you can check where they spawn before you go on your pmc

[distant obsidian]

they can spawn all over

[glossy hound]

they have pretty consistent spawn locations tbh

or at least locations where they hang out

[distant obsidian]

sure, you figure it out in like 2 pmc raids

people are still paying over 400k for teps??? LOLOL get scammed nerds

[odd oak]

The new years gift ?

[mystic trench]

Maybe a Twitch drop?

[glossy hound]

i havent seen them drop them. most of mine ive gotten from marked rooms

[twilit heath]

i read on reddit that smugglers dont have a locked crate on them then they planted it in a nearby building, is that bs?

bc i cant find SHIT

[glossy hound]

idk about that but if you're looking for the locked cases, factory always spawns two. one in the first floor office, one in the laboratory

[mystic trench]

Oh damn. Off to office I go.

[twilit heath]

that sounds a lot easier tysm

[glossy hound]

np

[hazy moss]

theres 3 in the 1st floor of the office, and 3 in the labratory

spawns for it *

[glossy hound]

three places it can spawn, but it only spawns in one of them for each building

[hazy moss]

i did correct myself before you even started typing

[glossy hound]

yeah i felt it needed clarification in that there are three spots it can be, but only one actual spawn

[mystic trench]

There a wiki to this? I couldn't find anything.

[glossy hound]

middle of the floor by the safe, by the back wall in the second 'room,' or on the couch in the room with the breachable door (need to go out the window by the safe, then around and in the other window)

i dont know all the laboratory spawns

[hazy moss]

just check your dms

[sleek cobalt]

Anyone know how long left on this event going on (Rumble )

[glossy hound]

either more or less than five hours

[sleek cobalt]

Thank you

[meager coyote]

Do y'all think its worth turning in the 10 weapon smuggler cases for the task or just open instead?

[pseudo kayak]

well gd 😭 went into garages, killed kaban, got bum rushed by like every guard in existence

[wheat bough]

Check the wiki for the previous smugglers event the spawns on factory are the same, 3 in office and 3 in the medical building near gate 2, 2 cases spawn one in each area of factory of you are desperate for those

[wheat bough]

For factory office its all on ground floor, near the pillar near the safe, on a box next to the window in the other section of the room towards gate 3, and the last one on the couch in the breach room on that same floor.

for the med room: 2nd floor for all.
On the cart that spawns the medical bag in the room by the stairwell, on a table in that same room, in the far back room In a chair.

Give me a bit to get some guides up and ill ping u in the screenshot area

[mystic trench]

Got it, thank you!

[wheat bough]

Check #screenshots

If you haven't seen my ping

Ill make a bit better guide later as that one was a rushed job on my phone lol

[mystic trench]

I got a link to the wiki that shows it all.

[wheat bough]

Ah works better than a top down map lol, we'll gl 2 spawn every raid so

[distant obsidian]

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

literally just use the fucking wiki. Why are you wasting time trying to explain it when you can link the wiki with pics

[wheat bough]

Cause one: im dumb
Two: cause I like making guides myself
Three: i was lazy and already had the picture I made on my phone

[mystic trench]

Someone had issues linking the wiki. Guess the server doesn't like it. Chill.

[distant obsidian]

I literally just did lol

[wheat bough]

Dont worry it's okay, I've dealt with pvp fuckers that complain I dont play the game how they want me to play it

And also no hate

[distant obsidian]

what the fuck does that have to do with anything lol

[wheat bough]

Wasnt burning ya btw fam

[distant obsidian]

ah k

[wheat bough]

Dw, lol

[distant obsidian]

im tired. You have a good night, keep up the good wqork

[wheat bough]

Ofc boss, you too!

[subtle valve]

GM

[fervent peak]

He and I went through a rather long session of cultists/goons/smugglers farmin

At one point, the cultists popped outta thin air right as we killed the last goon

[subtle valve]

FYI
Yesterday evening / night I was playing NF coop on bsg servers and cultists are really 33%, while switching back to running local it's like 15% only

So anyone doing cult hunts local, team up in duo and play server, much better yeld

[remote kiln]

bro ive ran factory like 30 times havnt seen cultist once

[subtle valve]

I did around 50 local raids now and got them 8 times.
Yesterday we had cultists 5 times in 11 raids 🙂
