I was planning to have that as side arm when I reach lvl max str
shooting scavs for skills
Who do you think make those stims
check head hp
It's fun at times.
there are better options
Yeah, true.
I do it cause I like the 57.
I like the idea of scav bosses, but a lot of them have a "Rules for thee, not for me" feel to them
idk i was playing that in arena with ap 20 but it gets barely any aim drill exp
Otherwise they just catch what ever bullet I have in my ar
i have been using the revolver shotty for drip reasons a bit too but jesus its bad
its kinda balanced in arena
ap20 is a meme, use flechette
This
1 shots lvl 4 plates in the thorax
it can*
if you hit arms a bit or belly it can be like 4 hits
if its lv 5 or 6 armor its like 7 or 8 hits
flechette on the other hands needs max 3 hits on the best armor plate in the game
Are there anyt uses for GP coins in PvE?
math
gift little timmy model 1
What
or the ear plugs
Uh huh.
https://tarkovgunsmith.com/ballistics_simulator use this if ur interested in ballistics
flechette beats ap20 in any way except some sniper shotty meme builds
yeah i suck at tracking targets so i play it like a bolt action
I wouldn't even use ap20 for sniping
Better slugs like the ftx and uh... the superperformance thing
upper thorax hit with flechette and most things die in 1 shot
and almost everything dies in 2
You can always play arena a while, i think you can buy red flares for gp lol
but gotta unlock them if i remember rightly
Idk i would have killed for more red flares during the smuggler event
idk abouta good pve max vitality grind exepty for Arena
same
you dont get hit often in pve
Mhm
play reserve a bit more if you want to level vitality
You can always go stand in fire and heal
Arena would be less painful
Depends on the person lol
Searched Fortress, no TP
if you dont wanna do fire, jumping from high places and healing is also a good option
barbed wire etc
Its boring but hey
I'm a literal stegosaurus
Nope
vitality just isnt worth it for me to do all those garbo strats lol
Mhm
Yeah i dont care enough about it to bother with any of that lol
Just get shot in arena
Sigh, time to shoreline for radio bodies
Wish me luck, let us pray its in one of the first places
Good luck man
lighthouse?
Thats the one
Idk why i keep flipping those two lol, its very obvious which map is which
understandable
my mate has asked we do some quests in lighthouse and i've clicked shoreline before
partly because they're right next to each other and i wasn't paying attention i guess
I think i just dislike them enough that my brain assigns 0 importance to getting it right
Do we know if muscle fatigue from the gym affects anything during gameplay? i never checked
I don't think so.
#difficult
I've heard that before to
With gloves on
-40
There isn’t a rounded edge for the lid so not much to grab on to.
Funny you mentioned that. I did a quick raid earlier and racked up 5kms traveled and got the same endurance XP as I did when I normally run it after using the gym. My last raid was just under 5kms traveled and I racked up about the same amount of XP for my endurance. Not much of a noticeable difference.
Is the G4 Full ITOV good armor?
The THOR is better
But the Gen4 is also decent, just heavier
Yep
🙌
All i needed to know tyty
It does not no
is it against the rules to trade arena skin gear for other type of gear?
just wanted to have some gear with arena skins in exchange for better gear or anything
#6
Y’ALL
Just use the gen4 assault
I JUST BOUGHT BD GEAR OFF FRNCE😭
Less penalties than most others, good neck and arm protection to
So THATS how people have been getting it lol
I BOUGHT THEIR NVGS!!!
I've been wondering about that, people kept saying it was down to cheaters
show
oh wait their nvg?
the dual tube blue nvg?
Yes
its normal mid tier nvg lol
Or wait
you can buy it
You sure it's the BD ones and not the normal ones?
the BD ones are the normal ones
Post it in #screenshots
They are exactly the same as the normal blues ones lol
Only a little less black around the edges
Are they pvs-31s or n-15s
They are the same in game though
BD are not using these? #screenshots message
No
Nope
Labs has felt meh in terms of loot the past two runs - hitting all keycards every run too
blue and green are fuckin empty now i stg
BD use these #screenshots message
green gave me like 2 stims and a griz. i was upset lol. Blue didnt give me shit
I’m gettin it
i stopped hitting those because they barely even have stims now
oh they are turqoise and not blue like mine
only do violet, double black, red, and yellow
im doing green for the black keycard chance - only one im missing
wont you get banned for having BD gear?
using the gym with max str/end gives nothing not even a message
just like for having tagillas hammer and scythe
Ends up being the same. I used nothing in terminal and noticed 0 difference
No
no it's not specifically forbidden, and people have said you can get it from scav case or airdrops
BD gear is not banned gear
its just not supposed to be accessible
apparently tagillas hammer dropped at the giving tree as well for some people
Yeah those are BD nvgs @shy pollen
i havent heard that one
insure those and that nvg mount because both of those are rare as fuck
been a while
??codes
you cant insure nvg
??code
or thermals

you can now
going in for another labs run. heres to hoping its not shit
you can now
when did that change
You can insure nvgs now but not thermals
i had a lil break
Bought them cheap off fence
lucky ass
normal fence or special fence?
314 key and a docs case from my cultist circle leggo
docs case is worth more on therapist than on flea
Normal
been like that since the new barter at 1.0
Like I was just scrolling fence and I saw the unknown item and immediately snatched them
i really wish they would put black division in other maps already, i want that fuckin gear
I’m pretty sure they’ll be on labs
It’d be so cool to see them clear out like USEC and raiders
does anybody know if more pmcs spawn in dorm on bsg servers? i need it for a quest and local servers arent spawning any
anecdotally local servers AI moves around a lot less, possibly as part of throttling for performance
alright
I'm of the opinion their performance depends on your specific cpu
Like, if i have a bunch of stuff open in the background my ai can go completely braindead
if all is running smooth they go terminator mode
anecdotal ofc but thats how its felt on my end
No difference
Everyone knows you can trust stegosaurs
i run a 9950x3d and i can see a clear difference after spamming customs on a mix of both the last few days
no one know yet
Trust me, i'm a literal stegosaurus
guys ive got a bunch of twitch crates from like
december
what should i do with them
is it worth an upgrade from a 7800x3d do you think?
got 6
you should check benchmarks; i only ever know things at a 'point in time' and that's when i'm about to upgrade 
prob not
barely
but not really
if you really dont care about money and sit on like 100k+ then do it for fun but that upgrade is kinda smol
I'd wait for the next big leap in power before upgrading
everything costs a fortune now because ai
- other factors
Yeah im not sure just seems like my performance is off for my specs
Or its just how tarkov is because im not exactly a veteran on this game
game runs like poop unless you have dlss/smooth motion on lmao
You'll want to look up optimization tricks for it to get it running better
apparently fsr got a boost last patch too
But there's only so much you can do
We did?
allegedly
dlss doesnt rlly work on my build bc im cpu bottlenecked
except for using it as an anti aliasing but then there's ghosting
And not from fsr
same 
I'm just power bottlenecked. 12900 and 3080ti, it runs fine for the most part but the game still shits itself regularly
7/8 customs capturing outposts, +1 progress only took 6 raids
i'm nearly free
HI!!
I think the only way you can get actual good performance right now is to absolutely overkill it with 5090s etc
How are you?
Rare to be GPU bottle necked
5090 isn't going to do anything
Yeah thats just a common theme for people without complaints about performance lol
usually a top end x3d + 5090
maybe so, I figured that I would be able to run it fine without messing around and sure it runs fine for what it is but with a 7800x3d and a 5080 it seems like im back on my 4060 🤣
what resolution are you running at?
Fuckin double inputs, i hate this 65% keyboard lol
1440
Ok turn down shit like LoD, volumetric fog and whatnot
The game does just run badly lol
I like having it on
You should have enough power to run the game fine but yeah it will run worse than what you expect
you should be fine just turn on dlss/smooth motion + reflex and enjoy
apologies I was talking to nux, should've used the reply
just mowed down reshalla and his guards because im doing punisher and I forgot that there was an event with them having blickies lmao
I felt bad
No it's all good lol
Yeah it runs fine like 140 and above sometimes dips in populated areas or streets but yeah compared to other games its noticeable
I will turn the above on and see what difference i get
oh yeah streets is rough for everyone lol
You'll get some people claiming 150fps at 4k but i do believe they are liars
They are not a literal stegosaurus so it is to be expected
I'll go find out what i get there, i've basically only got streets stuff left but i have to trigger the next lightkeeper timegate 😩
the fps graph after a streets raid looks like a heart monitor hahaa just up down up down up down
im glad that most streets quests are not required for kappa
otherwise it'd be aids to play with shit performance over and over
I want to like streets very badly but yeah the performance makes it a struggle
Real
it's also location/direction dependent
if i'm sitting in customs fortress looking at crackhouse i'm on like 250-280
if i turn 180 and look towards refinery / warehouse 17 it drops to like 150 lmao
Oh yeah that scaffolding on customs is notorious
the one in between stronghold and new gas, cant remember the callout
indeed, but the same principle applies to streets - there are just some buildings that are texture heavy that do that 🙁
Might be the back end of panda
friends told me about putting my background to factory when i started playing to get a fps increase i figured they were joking because of how ridiculous it sounds
turns out they werent
It also seems to apply to the reserve train but its so shit looking i think it might be a memory leak instead
😂 my favourite stupid problem
Yeah thats proabably top 3 most ridiculous but true things ive ever heard when playing
oops i just sold 2 super water for like half the price on accident
Unfuckingbelievable i just loaded into shoreline instead of lighthouse
grats to whoever got it
Why am i like this
you messed it up earlier too
Shoreline is really fun when birdeye starts to grief you from weather station mid pvp
happened today
I like to think he just messes with you on purpose
he doesnt snipe you on accident
its just price of independence that is -btr rep right?
i'm so glad this blicky event is on, fighting reshala and his gang and the goons at the same time is an experience 
Nice, i'm doing all the sidequests before i clear story lol
Just want to ensure i dont fuck that up
As you can tell i am notorious for not paying attention
stegosaurus' are famous for not paying attention
We are too busy with our stegosaur activities, it is perfectly natural
Any word on if the loot/raid timers for PvE will be improved?
No, because it's not a question that's been asked
Okay.
Anyone wanna run terminal?
whats the easiest way to get ofz shells for prapor
crafting them
Craft
yeah im on 2 rn and dont see the craft option for it but thanks
would be nice if it was moved down to 2
literally the only reason for that craft is to do the quest that is pretty early isnt it
crafting makes fir items
I think its level 3 sadly
yeah but like i need to find them in raid
havent completed that quest because it took me ages to level up and build level 3 work shop
crafting does that it counts
crafting an item makes it found in raid
oh alright sweet
thank fuck we atleast get that lol
makes a lot of the fir needed items for upgrading ez to get like toolkits
sadly no electric drill craft
I didn't have an issue with drills
yeah idk
more uses fo rechargeable batteries
Escort completed finally. had woods and reserve as the last ones, spawned into woods in front of the Goons. Butthole was doing a great impression of a rabbit's nose
but that finished off my strength skill, so now i can run my ASh-12 kit and not be fat! 

dude blicky killing the goons might be the funniest thing yet

my buddy blicky spammed me when he didnt know its not 1 dmg atm
basically put me in a wheelchair
Just got a black in a black lmao
W
i almost got banned but i deleted the message after all
its not in the logs if i dont send it :^)
ok
anyone to play PvE?
check out #pve-lfg lots of live players there
Thanx
what lol
door was too small #screenshots message
🙏
No
No
Bought a second pair just seconds ago lol
normal fence or special stock?
Regular page
i should put some well modded weapons on flea to make timmies happy
be a real lad and put an MCC or GPSA on the black market
just snatched a 100% black mp9
ok MCC is on fence
chad
i don't need it but nice work
cheese
I just died with MCC on labs lol thats prob mine
finally escaped from tarkov it feels good lol
wtf is the bullet drop on 338 from sniper rock to rogue base on lighthouse. I cannot make out the bullet impacts
on the 30mm 3-24x scope on 450m zero its about 9-10th mildot from dead tree to the nade launcher on roof 2
which is like 670m
Nice one ty
??event
It's April fools' day! Accept the new task "Bucket of Nothing" from Prapor to get started!
10 days of generator time and i dont even have full metal cans in it 🥀
Now it's time to start again
solar power be too nice
solar power and hideout managment are nice together
im never gonna have an empty plastic can to turn into filters or mag cases
I might lol. If I do idk what ending ima do. I did the humanity one
i only have hideout management lvl 28
Did you work with kerman?
crafting at 29
Yea I did.
So do the pain one, don't work with him and pay prapor 500m 🤣
you can power level that but its disgusting
good
i tried it once but got bored very quick
it was taking out gas mask filters and something else in the shitter
alternate those 2 crafts
yeah i know
but my pmc almost ended himself in stash
im only doing the gasmask one because i want more water filters
you have to alternate for exp tho
yeah, i am
im just saying that the only reason im doing the gas mask one is for the filters
oh i see
how long is the filter craft?
maybe i should do it too
i got a rys-t in the oven rn
its only 1.5 for every 8h
yeah but you dont have to babysit those

Mistyped it, give it another go!
Most of these codes are already outdated but you use them in the launcher
??codess
Mistyped it, give it another go!
When you launch the game it forces the bsg launcher first
close combat version
probably shorter barrel variant in comparison to the normal scar-l
i have never launched this game before
17 not 16*
burgers
i think same thing just shorter by default scar-H
🍔
Does the train always turn up on lighthouse?
or could i sit here until its too late to realise it's not comming
tyty
it used to sometimes come late,
I never bother going this far up but lightkeeper wanted a fuckin v3 flashdrive
but now it shows up between 15-10m left
So is hunting the goons on PvE just pure luck? I know they swap maps but all the trackers I've seen place them on completely separate maps within minutes of each report
Ye
They may or may not be around, people say its a 30% chance but idk where they got that number
Think coinflip except it hates you
It is 30% on most maps
well 20 plus raids on customs says it's not a 30% chance
they don't rotate anymore atm and so they are a 25-30% chance to spawn like the rest of the normal bosses on their 4 maps
Community input is useless for goon sighting because they spawn withing their chance
I promise thats not how statistics work lol
Still is 30% regardless of your luck
You could get tails 20 times if you flipped a coin 20 times, its very unlikely but...
^that
Remember the "Hates you" part, thats tarkov
and there's no failsafe if you don't get them. So yea
like @wintry cobalt with cultists during their event lol

I also had kraj luck
Maybe not quite as bad
But i focused on marked rooms for the guaranteed weapon crates, all that juicy ammo ❤️
I know I know, 30% chance but that's the average. just kinda sucks to have rolled it so many times without even a sighting of them yet
#weapon-modding message one for the pve bois
Oh motherfucker lol
I just got to the flashdrive part of the lighkeeper quest, to get access
I have a violet keycard cooking... 95 hours left
😩
@slate stump 800k???
lmao thats not too far from thee build i actually use
yeah
wanna see the gun i sell for up to 1.5 mil?
Yeah
I'm not even gonna ask
people buy
it has enough lights to basically xray through walls
and with that many canted sights you can pretty much shoot around those walls
without exposing yourself
If the AI actually reacted to lights it would have been useful
Extracted from Factory with 104kg of loot, lol
What did you loot?
The NL545 is supposed to be a weapon with the ergonomics of the AR-15, in 5.45x39mm, but it doesn't have an AR15-style bolt release?
Very odd choice.
Rooster, Golden Weights, and Clock were the big ones. Rest was jusut gear and guns.
There are two
new to tarkov anybody trying to scav run coustoms i spent all my money on the lucky scav junkbox lol
The Mutant is the one with the bolt release?
Wait, no, the Mutant is in 7.62x39, isn't it?
Yes
One NL is direct gas, one is a short strike gas piston
These differences are the reason why one is 50 rpm more
Ohhh bad choice
Why?
That explains it

I wish we had more room in prisons for people like you
I see. I have the 800 RPM one
Doesn't the milk spill when you put the cereal in? Or do you put very little?
its just so incorrect
Man tagilla just sucks dick
Thats not all he does
Why?

I'm new as well. I found buying an AK74U, an extra mag, 60 rounds of PRS and doing a PMC run in factory can net you some good equipment and money for cheap. Just watch out for Tagilla, lol.
Tagilla can smell your fear.
I beat Tagilla in cqb hah
Nah just bang his head with bullets
I've killed him a couple of times, but sometimes I open a door and hes just there, no noise, with his Saiga, lol.
I do this too lol
But I also do the opposite
UBEYYYYYYY
Usually I can hear his breathing, but sometimes not I guess ,lol
I don’t even hear him
Yeah every now and then he's just silent
Tanks shots like a motherfucker everywhere
He literally 1 shot me with flechette the other day
Plus spawns all the time
Its very unfortunate because when he is, you find him lurking outside the door you just opened
Fuck him and fuck whoever thought it was good boss
Speaking of silent, Partizan scared me the other day, lol. Was walking out of meth lab or whatever its called on customs and this dude scared the hell out of me in the doorway and I just spray and prayed. Didn't even realize it was a boss until I got an achievement, lol
Who is tank
Feels like such a waste using BT on scavs.
People venting about bosses in this chat are so funny
Crackhouse
No kidding
Aim for tagilla’s head and DONT STOP SHOOTING.
Thank you. I would not like to insult the meth heads. lol
I encountered him 3 times when i did marked room, on of the time i thought i was shooting a scav from afar because how weak he is
Not sure what marked room is. I've only seen him that once.
Tagilla
Feels bad shooting bt cause it's shit ammo o
They played too much among us
Wdym?
Why call him tank then? He's a wet noodle
Also I’m doing peacekeeper tasks!!!
Isn't tagilla's head armor 5 though? I thought it was better to go for his legs?
Ik lol
It's the best I have at the moment.
Weird lol
I don't know what you meant by 'marked room'.
once you have the proper AP ammo its way easier to just go for his head and he becomes not a big deal
Tho if he catches you by surprise you’re prob dead
Then it is what it is yeah.
Opening the marked room on dorms
314
I love trading reserve marked for dorms
Yeah, I figure with the right ammo he's probably not a big deal, but I'm walking around with like sub 30 pen ammo lol
On jaeger
Atleast you get something out of the goons
I had a friend who got his helmet to 0 using a 5x45
Tag has nothing
It is but anything with 40 and greater pen is better used on his head
In this case, just run
Thanks for explaining. I'm not sure I've ever opened the dorm rooms. Is Partizan just big aboutu camping dorms?
To be fair I was dropping tagilla when I was doing secured parameter with 855
Just shoot his face
I openly admit there is probably a skill gap between us, lmao
It beats using PS
Indeed
Yes, and this marked room key is the most expensive in the game so it's no Biggie if you didn't, the key costs 22mil last time i checked
Probably. I wouldn't recommend it lol
this event was truly a missed opportunity. they could have added golden blicky
Or an achievement..
That shoots what?
golden discs lol
50 bmg
Golden discs yeah
same ammo, just special edition blicky
made from gold chains
I will run a golden disc with no muzzle velocity
Oh wow. What all spawns in there to make it so expensive? I went and checked my key- no 314. Only 315. lol
Or they could have continued the smugglers one
normal ass marked room, it's just the easiest since there's a exfil right there next to it
Cards, guns, containers
I got it from the cultists circle lol
Some dickhead I just put down was wearing a Fort-2 Defender, is it any good? It's level 5
eh, that got old kinda fast for me
Quest key and barter item for a melee weapon
I think the rarest keys I have (based on them being golden backgrounds) is one called Uknown and one called Machiner.
i mean it's not bad
It's actually better than most keys in terms of loot
but it's heavy
Oh those two are just quest items, ain’t worth anything
Machinary you mean?
Machinery* yes.
Ah, so gold is just task?
Yes
absolutely worthless outside their quest
But 314 is the best bc it can really give you like 5 mil a run
Purple the rare keys then?
guaranteed spawns
A bit more, yeah
rarest key is probably bloody rusted?
Like kiba
If you ever find a key called “rusted bloody key” KEEP IT
Rarer than 314?
KEEP. IT.
I see. Eh, I've already got an ITOV G4 in my stash and I'm wearing an AVS I slipped level 6 plates into.
defo
Why?
Absolutely
Because ir doesn't spawn or the loot is better?
quest key, rare spawn at one location on streets
It spawns so rarely and such
And also it spawns marked keys
Like it’s all keys
can spawn any key
Oh does it?
Yes
i've even seen it spawn labyrinth door keys lol
I once got dorms and chek 13 in the same place
Time to scab run streets
Hey, I got one of those!
Hm. Rarest keys I have are RB-PSP1, health resort office key with blue tape, Danex, Concordia security room key, overseer, company director, 1RB-PKPT, and rashalas.
Rashala is not rare
nor is overseer
I have 3 of those i think
Just listing the purple keys I have, lol
It spawns in the mall, near that escalator, in that little shack with the racks and such it spawns on the key rack
Search it up
background color doesn't really mean much tbh
Yeah ik that one
Oh, lol
Tho mayo, word of advice
don't lose it, they're a bitch to find another lol
If you ever find a key that says “pharmacy” or “ultra medical” keep them, they’re VERY. GOOD.
I had the mysterious one last time
ultra med being able to be opened without power is the funniest thing to me
I have a pharmacy key.
Oh HELL YES
Thought it was good, turns out it was shit
Wish I could just share a screenshot.
Also kiba, but don't tell niki
danex is needed for kappa
Yes
A lot of dorms keys
you can ditch most of those duplicates lol
necrus too
I don't think I've really used any of them lol
If you have time, run them in one raid and extract via car
gdesk is good to keep, can spawn 314 marked key
Or the most you xan actually xarry
I need to get that little key ring.
@native osprey Quick question, what level are you and what is your current balance
Its 500k lol
Right now though I'm trying to get 4 more bloodset so I can get that medical case, lol.
Buy a documents one instead
I'm only level 18. Keyring doesn't unlock until 25.
Level 18. 3.3mil
You can get a documents one from a task
Do you use the cultists circle?
I think it is criminal they don't give you more boxes early in this game, lol
I have no idea how anything in the hideout works lol
I’m gojo currently
Oh boy
Did you use the codes?
What's everybody's favorite map?
Up down left right? .... no idea what codes. lol

Do it
I've in the middle of moving, so I've mostly just been playing quick matches of Factory lol
Thank me later

I love Factory, personally.
You are missing a lot of features from the game
Who can hare it
Have you been playing alone ? @native osprey
I like it because I can get in, loot, and get out. Some of the other maps just take way too long to get across and their raid timer seems really low.
Mostly. I'm moving atm, so I haven't really been able to play iwth others too much. Mostly just quick factory raids.
I like Factory 'cause I like shooting people, and it's easy to find 'em on such a small map.
I’m sorry BTR sir 😭😭
If you want to dm me so i can save you, and when i will be home i can explain to you some features than can help you a lot
Thanks. The community has been really helpful.
Of course, i can understand what is it like playing it alone and it sucks
Ok, lets log back in and see what these codes gave me.
A lot of things are un-explainrd and can really be missed
And if you’re wondering I can help you with certain keys, and such, I know some stuff, same with guns and such
Yeah turns out I'm a fucking idiot who can't read good
I have the direct gas one.
I'm still waiting for support to get back to me about that gifts from the profile website. I clicked claimed by they only showed up in my PVP profile.
One of them gets you a weapons case
Being able to spit PPBS Iglonik at 800RPM sounds pretty good.
Oh god, thank you. 😭
And an ammo one i think
In other news, I found a Vector 9x19 with 2x50rnd drums. 😎
Sweet
I need to get rid of some guns. Stash is just too full of guns and plate carriers, lol.
Save the vector if you can
If not, sell it
Oooo I know that feeling
You will need it for a task
Same
I am lucky to have arena to get containers from ref
I bought it a long time ago when i wanted to play tarkov without the pain
Not good yeah
Pain V2
If you enjoy it
I mean for the other team if I’m in a fighting mood😭
I wouldn't blame you
One time I got like 38 kills while the others had somethin else
last hero is the most fun for me since theres no teams for anyone to depend on
But the game is really repetitive, have weird metas and less optimized than the regular one
I go with whatever I like
I never played any other gamemode than checkpoint because of 10+ minute timss
I lose Jager rep if I do the BP Depot quest? What the fuck is Jager's problem?
Lol
Wait you are this early?
He hates scavs
Wait until you do his other tasks
I've heard a lot of people have very choice words for Jager's tasks.
What are flares for? I have a red one and a green one?
I mean, I hate scavs too
red is airdrops, green is flare exfils
Oh, I can call in airdrops with the red flare cartridge?
Cool.
Yeah
SCAR L or SCAR H worth keeping?
Don't do it, there is 100% airdrops anyway
It depens, but i will personally will not keep the 5x56 one
Mostly because it's big on the screen and it has very slow firerate
And in your level, 5.56 is rare
I’d probably stick with like 5.45 since it’s very easy to get early game
Same
Thanks. I currently have an M4A1, MP5 SD, SCAR-L, SCAR-H, AK-545, MP7A1, Saida-12k FA with drum mags (thanks tagilla), RPK-16, SV-98, MPX, M700, SR-25, and HK 416s.
I imagine a lot of these are... not good, lol
No actually a lot of those are good
Nice
Any worth getting rid of?
I will personally sell the hk416s
Hmmm
Thats interesting. I thought the 416s would be good.
it is good
I thought so too
Never managed to get them better than an m4
Oh, what are bitcoins for btw? I found 0.2BTC lol
Save it
HOLY
It's half a million
582k rn
when fence says kill 5 pmcs but dont kill scavs, do cultists count as scavs
Where did you find them
No
Cultists are free game
Probably factory. lol
Well I kill them all the time as a scav fence don’t care
Nice, if you see yourself doing a lot of raids and not getting money, sell it as a last resort
Weird
And also they don’t count tho since their faction is unknown..
I wish supporot would get back to me and give me the food storage gift.
fuckkkk they are a scav, i just failed the ticket, did i mess up the ending?
For the ticket?
Weird, no I don’t think so
Guys what are some good 556 spawns besides usec, mvd and tg armory?
So, for plate carriers. I havea THOR+level 6 plates +Airframe+chops+death mask for factory. But its too heavy for normal games.
I'm kind of debating between running the CPC MOD 1 or JPC as a main carrier for normal runs because of weight.
Thoughts? Inputs?
Just get a 6b45 some nice plates and maybe a tor with faceshield
But depends on LL with prap
Is the groin protector on some armors worth it or do most of you guys just run ones like that 6b45 that doesn't?
Didn't see nothing about it screwing it
most of the time i die to head eyes or throat, rarely groin
The 45 has groin protection
mesh door
Cpc mod one is better in terms of weight i think
On lexos ?
Nvm wrong person
Yes
It's shitty for his level, it's heavy
Whats his level?
Oh nvm, wrong vest
Always hit mesh door, tg armoury, all other ammo spawns should get enough each run
The 6b45 I'm seeing doesn't have a groin flap. It also doesn't have arm protection.
The Thor not worth keeping?
Ive been hitting mvd but it feels like whenever I use 556 there im cursed to run into kollontay
Keep the thor
Not gonna lie, it takes up a ton of space and it sucks having to have a carrier with it (that also takes up space)
The thor is good I think never used
I also looked at getting an Osprey to replace the thor.
How much durability is the thor?
Thor is great source of plates and best offering for cultist circle
IOTV Gen 4 High mobility kit, Defender 2, Redut M. those are some good ones that still let you keep groin and neck protection while being lighter
369/440. T6 plates are 40+ dura
310 base + 2x60 and 2x18 for plates
Oh wow that's big
Way to heavy to run tho
Sorry, I listed my current Thor. Thought that was what you were asking.
Maybe an an2?
Yeah.. the Thor is super heavy, lol
what's he trying to run?
The one you craft at lavatory
18kg by itself
You can slot your lvl 6 in that
Is arm armor worth having?
Yeah but 100k for a bare rig is expensive depending on budget
Early on want lighter armour while still having enough protection
You don't need level 6 in level 18
Usually your arm is the first thing shot off
I think 5 will so the job
Is PPBS Iglonik a good round?
But he will not be able to carry itself
I mean yeah
For what exactly?
What cal?
5.45
But you can alleviate it with painkillers
37 dmg and 62 pen
Killing PMCs, raiders and bosses
Never saw it
Although it gives you more recoil
It is for killing bosses
Wouldn't recommend for general use because of lack of damage
Tbh you only need to run high pen for killa and tag
Which bosses? Cause overall it's shit for flesh dmg
Not really
Others fold to even midtier ammo
You can kill them easily with low pen ammo
It's best for Labrys
Uh huh, I see.
With 5.45?
I would use BS and BP
7n40 is not low
Im fucking packing that shit from now on
Where is a good place to get Medical Bloodset?
Cuz fuck that asshole
55 dmg
42 pen
Emercom on interchange and emercom on woods
42 is not that low
Or medical tent on factory
Generally any place that has high concentration of medication itsms
Isn't 42 pen like, T5 territory?
Or fortress on customs but you should be ready to fight the goons there
Yeah
So it's good
Am I gonna get one tapped by a toz because it phases through my armor
For bosses
Since they are almost guaranteed
No
No but it'll hurt still
By the time it pens, it will do no damage
Blunt dmg
Yeah
Will hurt less than getting shot without armor, so I'll take it.
They will usually aim for your neck or other unarmoured parts
The more I learn about scavs the more I hate them
unless on local
God i hate woods so much
surgery ending animation bug
It's a waste of sugicals
But it's your home
Happens on bsg too
I am a plains creature
Hahaha

Feed me shrubs
There is anybody that likes it?
As a new player, I feel like playing as a SCAV is a trap. Better to just buy a cheap gun and run PMC because you're getting XP for stuff.
Explains why my arms magically got hit more when I wore a G4 ITOV
Fucking hate how every scav just blasts off my arms
No
Or bosses
You're going on the list
Uhhh what list??
I would kind of like woods if the raid timer wasn't so short. Some of these larger maps have timers way too short. Even customs feels short for me.
Dont forget 762 ps 1 tapping thorax
Dont worry about it, i'm a literal stegosaurus
I heavily dislike how Sanitar's skull is thick enough to deflect 5.7mm rounds
Can’t say I’m going on a list in. 2026
35 is short?
That’s kinda sus man
No he just spams stims
I see.
Feels short to me.
Yeah woods feels way too short
Woods feels insanely short.
Quite literally all he does is spam stims
And by the time you kill him you have nothing to take off of him
By the time you get to any lootspots youre halfway through the timer
It's his guards I like
Yes
I've heard raid timers are shorter in PvE, but that might just be nonsense
Also, I feel like the compass should be available to players from level 1. I was lucky to find one earlier on lol
They are not
Explains why he had fucking nothing when I first killed him.
It is
You can buy it
I've read that raid timers used to be a little bit longer before.
You need to mostly suprise him
Give me a buyable drone strike so I can murder tag forever
Where from?
Prapor i think
FPV drone
Nikkta wants to add them actually
What?
Switchblade drone launcher
Ukraine war in tarkov?
God I hope not.
No compass in any of the vendors early level from what I can tell.
I doubt he will
Cuz fuck him and fuck factory
I get pretty tilted when he bonks me, ngl.

Never seen the pillarmen on woods
I'm not looking forward to the day I run into the goons.
Maybe once
I mean once you know how to cheese them they are kinda easy
Nikita would give the goons FPV drones
But they are the best on customs
How do you cheese tagilla? lol
We ran to the same direction once and i didn't noticed him until he turned over to me
Easy red rebel
And he'd let them launch eight at a time or some bullshit like that.
Shoreline sucks with them cuz they spot you from everywhere
Don't give him ideas
They are easier to kill there
If you hide inside the building near Fortress it's easy
Only time I killed them on shoreline was smugglers
@native osprey use his own weapon again him tbh
And once at weather cuz they ran away from there
Gluhkar's guards would get two each, and he gets five. So when he spawns, 15 FPV drones appear and kill every PMC on the map.
MP7 worth keeping? I don't think it has a drum mag for it.
Oh. Thats close enough.
Ammo is very late game
Yeah
MP7 gets 40-rounders
Better off taking birdeye's m4
Even though you can rack up nice things with low pen but high damage ammo on factory early game
I wish I could buy the high flesh damage 9x19 rnds.
Spawns with high pen and midpen ammo a lot
It's an ammo dispenser so bring a lot
I'm stuck with M882 atm.
Plus bird spawns with 60 rounders aswell
He talks about it in general
I am too on level 30
It's good with the tutorial mpx
Yes
Mp7 is prob the best gun to run for no recoil
Sorry excluding mod4
9mm isn't a particularly good round in this game, M882 is shit.
It all depends of what you want to do
Same with .45
It's the gun mostly
If you use m882
I had nice experience with it on factory with an mpx
Killed tagilla with it
You can buy PST from Prapor at LL2
Pst is even worse
It's got better pen
Does it?
M882 is 56dmg/18pen I think. PST is 54dmg/20pen I think.
Yes.
You trade 2 damage for 2 pen.
Not great.
But it's something, I suppose.
Oh it does
Tf
But i will keep the damage
You either aim for the face or the legs
One thing to consider (at least for me at my level) is that the PST is 71 RUB and the M882 is 1 USD.
huh, i just found my first TT MkIII rig
Buy either when you want to level up the traders
its awesome on factory with ap
He is far from ap
