But no, the GAC 4sss2's are made of "Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene"

[ornate jungle]

arguably gac 3s are better than ceramic 6

i would almost always choose gac 3 over them because dura

[native osprey]

I'm trying to level up my Illumination to level 3 but its saying I don't have enough capacitors, even though I have them in my invetory.

[odd gale]

Bottom right does it have a check mark

[native osprey]

Yes.

[astral kindle]

Are they FIR?

[odd gale]

They need to be found in raid

[native osprey]

They have to be FIR? Oh come on, lol

Thats so dumb.

[odd gale]

Yeah

[west sigil]

Oh, good, the SLICK sits neatly underneath my rig, so my fashion is preserved.

[native osprey]

lol

[odd gale]

Happens to me all the time

[west sigil]

Drip or drown, BEARMAN!

Though I might still run the G4 ITOV for the extra all-around protection

Plus, it looks really good...

[native osprey]

I just spent so much of my money to buy items to upgrade my hideout...RIP my wallet.

[west sigil]

The G4 Full with the GAC 4sss2 plates is only about 5kg heavier than the Slick

[odd gale]

I just upgraded my vents to level 3

Next is generator

[mossy blade]

where do I find blue drills

[hard marten]

best place i find them is interchange

[elfin turret]

Got my Third scav case today. man, these things are required.

[west sigil]

Scav junkboxes?

[mossy blade]

Interchange where

[hard marten]

tell me about it. i have 8 of them 💀

[hard marten]

just keep looking in all the toolboxes and bags, you'll find one in due time

finally found the goons

[astral kindle]

Did 3 customs raid and found them 2 of those

Still laughing that i threw random M67 to listen their position and killed birdshit with it, i just though he got lost somewhere

[young frost]

oli/tekno/rasmussen also all over the shelves in the storage areas

[misty forge]

you guys find the goons? I haven't seen them in ages

[mossy blade]

Hes actually scary on Woods if he spawns with an RSASS or Sako

[alpine vigil]

hi guys, does anyone know the key that unlocks the room underground on reserve in the hallway leading to the water, its right next to ir

[astral kindle]

30% chance on any of their maps

[mossy blade]

RB PKPTS

[misty forge]

I guess they just don't love me then

[misty forge]

[mossy blade]

Theyre annoying af been showing up to each of my raids

[astral kindle]

Don't worry, during snowball i hunted them for ~3 hours

[misty forge]

3 months and going

I took a break for a few weeks but damn I just want to kill some goonies

[alpine vigil]

tyty

[misty forge]

We need to switch raids then, cause I haven't seen them and I want their armor for ragman

[mossy blade]

Well shi you get good labs raids?

Im getting the 2 roler labs rn

[misty forge]

Haven't ran labs in a while, I got some cards but I see no reason to go there yet, maybe tomorrow morning, it's 6 pm for me

[hard marten]

love labs for ammo and bitcoin if you have black keycards for safe

[mossy blade]

I run locals on labs due to the legendary method

[mossy blade]

I love Labs too for these purposes but also LEDEXes left and right

[hard marten]

i need to look up the spots for ledex's. i think i've only found maybe 2?

[misty forge]

I think I have 2 full black cards, some yellow and reds too

[hard marten]

red, violet, black and green are my favorite cards. and sometimes res. for potential bitcoin

[astral kindle]

Yellow can spawn ledx time to time too

And bitcoins, its just best room of whole labs

[misty forge]

Coffee is right, so far yellow is a fav for me, It's cheap and I for some reason get gpu's a lot but I still need 3 cpu fans for bitcoin farm 3

Black is sometimes meh for me, most i've seen is bitcoin, I can't find intel or anything else

[hard marten]

i find folders in the safe all the time when running labs in black key room. think i had 20+ after i did all my runs

down to 9 since i've been running a bunch of hideout scav runs

[crystal quarry]

Anyone have any good gun builds I need some

[mossy blade]

Also ALWAYS check pussyroom

[crystal quarry]

Also I need help figuring out best keys for each map tryna make a case for each map

[mossy blade]

pussyroom had a Ledex and bitcoin for me

[hard marten]

spawn in factory and go figure, boss is spawn caming my door lol

[mossy blade]

I meannmnnn for what exactly

Like Labirynth or more a general one

[raw nest]

Which gun exactly?

[mossy blade]

Gun type too

[crystal quarry]

Any tryna get good guns to use for bosses and for on labryth

[mossy blade]

That's two kits, so basically short-mid range

Your preferred caliber?

I am running both calibers and each ammo works great

[crystal quarry]

7.62x51 or 7.62x39

[mossy blade]

Aight 7.62 NATO it is, so my suggestion will be either an X-17 if youre high budget or AK-308 if youve got the 24 round mags from Prapor, run an LPVO scope (Vudu, Tango6, Tac30 etcetra), something of a muzzle break that decreases recoil, pretyy much BCP FMJ or anything higher pen, best possible grip, if youre going Labrys aim for M61 or higher pen ammo (for that i suggest looting Red and Res unit on Labs)

7.62 WP is unreliable at most especially due to the recoil it has, not really suitable for Labrys

I know that because I tried thst out

X-17 with drums or Ak-308 with 24 round mags, howrver for Labrys get lota of mags as you will burn through them while fighting guards Minotaur and Killa

[errant crater]

does anyone have a rusted bloody they wouldn’t mind using for the door quest? cannot find one to save my life

[hard marten]

you just trying to do the WiFi cameras?

[errant crater]

yessir just don’t have the key to open it

[hard marten]

i have 3

[errant crater]

bettttt

i’m in Trio 31

other guy ain’t here rn

[odd oak]

Is ash12 with ps12b good enough for labyrinth

[mossy blade]

NEVER use the Ash12

Its going to get you kill d

[odd oak]

Whatcha mean it’s easy to control and pretty good pen ammo

[mossy blade]

I tried the same idea, got met with something called Minotaurs warm welcome

[mossy blade]

It just doesnt kill him

It WONT kill him in time

[odd oak]

There you go a straight answer

Ty

[mossy blade]

Its much better to use an AR

Or a Battle rifle

Or heck anything else than an Anti air gun

[astral kindle]

Ash-12 is good weapon but wouldn't use it in labry indeed

Last time when i went there, i had MDR with M61

[fervent peak]

PS12B is only 43 some odd pen. It WILL NOT pen Shagilla's armor on the first 3-5 bullets. That will get you killed, full stop.

It's not impossible, but you'd have to kite him a couple times to wear down his armor

[pseudo kayak]

it's funny in labrys tho

[jovial cobalt]

clear labrys with blicky

[astral kindle]

Currently it would be easier due 25 damage but it deals 1 dmg if any kind of armor is on the way

[rocky citrus]

has anyone here had their ref tasks bugged and not able to finish the theta questline?

happened after i reset my pvp and arena accounts

[alpine vigil]

does reshala still have the toy gun or is he back to normal

[fervent peak]

Man streets is lame, pmcs all dead in the first ten minutes 🙁

[lone thicket]

??events

[quasi apex]

It's April fools' day! Accept the new task "Bucket of Nothing" from Prapor to get started!

[weary ice]

For drip out part 1 what is wartech branded equipment?

[odd gale]

If you look at the bottom right where the checkmark is

[distant obsidian]

[odd gale]

It should be highlighted yellow

And it’ll tell you what it’s used in

[weary ice]

alright thx

[distant obsidian]

wiki will give you the list of items that count

[odd gale]

Yeah

[weary ice]

time to grind labs 😢

[distant obsidian]

sounds like a waste of timer

do other task, that one is not imporant at all

[fervent peak]

Just grab this stuff if you got space while doing any other task, this will take you too long to do if you focus on it
IF anything, let your cultist circle deal with it

[marsh wing]

yeah, do NOT prioritize Drip out pt 1 and 2. It literally only gives you cosmetic items, no xp, no weapons, no cash, just cosmetic items

[weary ice]

The drip is so important Fym

[marsh wing]

have you seen the rewards?

[weary ice]

No

But drip is drip twin

[pseudo kayak]

do you have to stay in a match after you complete a task in arena

[meager coyote]

The game just stole an air filter from me xd

[fading patrol]

anyone else had f-1s blowing up almost immediately after impact?

Also i havent seen a pmc at dorms in like 25+ runs so i dont know how im supposed to finish out evil watchmen

[next glade]

Anyone got a better vitality levelling method than rubbing my face in barbed wire? Its so SLOW

[jovial cobalt]

was it reduced delay f1?

[next glade]

Partizan has special reduced delay ones

[odd gale]

Yep

[marsh wing]

no but its a little rude to leave before the game is over

[next glade]

So, doing the math. I can get aboooout 20ish points of vitality per raid if i really push it. But its costly with meds, like more expensive than stress resistance was. That means in 167ish raids of statmaxxing for vitality i'd have it maxxed

Gross

[marsh wing]

do it

i only just hit 300 survived raids this morning

[digital dune]

It's really not that bad if you do more than 1 skill at a time. Try to do 3-5 if you can.

[pseudo kayak]

yeah im just NOT staying in a match with a guy who's trying to do cool shit while sucking ass

bro was tryna hit trickshots while being bottom leaderboard and his voice was annoying

[digital dune]

With as much trolling that goes on in gaming, just do you. People will get over it.

[next glade]

I already have Endurance, Strength, Stress resistance, Attention, Perception, Metabolism, Troubleshooting, Search, Crafting, and Hideout Management maxxed

[digital dune]

Oh shit. My bad. I'll zip it. lol

[pseudo kayak]

it's okay I shot him in the head like 7 times and he just went afk

[next glade]

The only ones i can still really powerlevel all i really have that are easy are pistols(blicky), shotguns(low damage ammo to limbs), Covert Movement, Weapon Maintenance, and Mag Drills

[lethal garnet]

zip it

[next glade]

But thinking about it i might be able to do revolvers and pistols at the same time with the god awful chiappa rhino in 9mil lol

[digital dune]

😭 i dddddiiiiiddd.

[lethal garnet]

[odd gale]

How did you even do stress resistance

[next glade]

Vault the sides of fire barrels. It shoots up super quick doing that. Bring salewas(fastest continuous heal) like 4-6 per raid

[odd gale]

I didn’t know that first part

[next glade]

Any other skills you want the secrets to?

[odd gale]

I think we are good right now I’ll let you know though

[next glade]

:)

[solar venture]

Anyone seen Partisan today? If so where?

[next glade]

Everywhere he can spawn, local raids give him alot more chances to spawn

[solar venture]

im at 28 raids straight now mix of Customs and Woods and not seen him.

[next glade]

So. There is a way to semipermanently increase his spawn for you personally

But its SUCH a pain to lower back down i wouldnt recommend doing it on purpose

[solar venture]

how?>

[fair dawn]

I had partisan on dorms 4 times yesterday while hittign marked room - all within 2 hours

[next glade]

There is a hidden stat called "pmc karma" its an anti rat mechanic, the longer you sit in bushes, more you kill teammate pmcs. The higher his spawn rate will be. When you hear a birdsong with a descending not pattern youve increased it by 1. The only way we have on pve of lowering that karma, is by coop extracting with scavs. And the indicator your karma lowered is a birdsong with ascending notes.

[solar venture]

NOT ABOUT TO TRY SCAV CO-OP EXTRACTING. HE'S THE LAST BOSS i NEED FOR sNOWBALL....

caps*

[pseudo kayak]

YIPPEE REF LL4

[pseudo kayak]

party man customs trust

[next glade]

Then all i can say is play local raids. And find a safe spot to hole up for the raid, pop your head out occaisionally to check for his tripwire nests. And i guess level your mag drills to pass the time lol

For what its worth the place ive run into him the most is at the cultist bunker on woods

[solar venture]

yeah, that bunker was the majority of my attempts. I'd go sit there for 5-10 mins and nothing

I'll go hang out in 314 marked I guess

[next glade]

Anyone know the lowest damage shotgun pellet round off the top of their head?

Ugh lmao, the 20g 7.3mm shotgun shell might be the best for levelling shottys

Guess ill make a toz and test it lmao

[pseudo kayak]

someone hand over a spear build w a drum

[next glade]

Modding screen dm okay?

[pseudo kayak]

#weapon-modding !!!!

[weary ice]

uhh is there a boss on reserve with a gl or did i die to a pmc with a gl

[pseudo kayak]

so basically you got agl'd (turret)

[weary ice]

fr? he was right in front of me and shot me

[grizzled mica]

GL i dont think so, but there is a bos, and his guards like grenades. and also like other dude said, gl mounts

[weary ice]

i dont think it was the mounted gl because i was inside a building

[pseudo kayak]

oh hmm

[west sigil]

Turns out a mag of M856A1 cuts through Tagilla's fancy mask like a hot knife through butter

[pseudo kayak]

well yah 44? pen?

which is why I use 7.62x39 PP 41 pen high dmg

and cheap*

[west sigil]

Feels like a waste using it on anything other than bosses and PMCs tho

[west sigil]

To be honest I expected more out of the big guy but getting a facefull of bullets will do that to someone.

[agile mantle]

holy cheaters lmao wtf

[west sigil]

?

Beg pardon?

[agile mantle]

nvm lol

no I saw the news

thought we had 54% cheaters

[tacit latch]

yall, is big pipe taking a lot of ammo and damage to kill for yall? me and my buddy keep loading his face with ammo and he just tanks it.

[fair dawn]

He just tanked 5 rounds of 7.62x54 PS to the face so id say yeah

[agile mantle]

Sounds like Big Pipe

[pseudo kayak]

shoot him in the face he's just a fatass

[agile mantle]

I wonder if I can kill Kaban with MXLR

[next glade]

Unfortunately, the toz is indeed the best for levelling shotgun skill🥲

Got 18 points last raid on shottys, and 21 points on pistols from blickying

[pseudo kayak]

i mean i took sog with a deagle, just took a uh a while of careful play

[finite tide]

the gpsa is only found on labs right?

[fair dawn]

yes

same with the MCC

[next glade]

Absolute tragedy for my ammo stockpiles. Ssa Ap is the lowest damage assault rifle round. Meaning if im legging my targets thats how ill get the most skill points😭🥲🥲

[finite tide]

where on labs cant seem to find it

[fair dawn]

valuables spawns - all of them

just about at least

[next glade]

Colored card rooms besides black and blue

[fair dawn]

red, violet and yellow can spawn it as well.

[finite tide]

only labs and not labyrinth

[next glade]

And the security area in green

Yes

[finite tide]

damn it

[jovial cobalt]

the first floor white wall room that is unlocked (across from the weapon testing room) spawns some i think

[next glade]

Cats is a good spot to check as well

[jovial cobalt]

truuuuu

[fair dawn]

i got mine at cats this wipe

[next glade]

Okay, next best round i can figure for assault rifle levelling is 545 bt gs, used on legs then tummy. That way i can at least buy the ammo im powerlevelling with

[jovial cobalt]

arena is nice for weapon skill leveling
but then its arena

[next glade]

In tarkov i can at least focus grind it. In arena if im skillmaxxing then im not winning matches

[worn burrow]

Why is partisan impossible to find, even on local?

230 raids and I've only found him once

[fair dawn]

i found him four time within 2 hour yesterday

[jovial cobalt]

fair point, i just play like i always do as long as im using an AR and it helps a ton

[fair dawn]

at dorms while i was hitting marked

[next glade]

💀 i think the toz might be best used without a magazine and just breech load it ugh

[worn burrow]

This is my 3rd marked key I've gone through now looking for him in 2 days

[fair dawn]

Thats unforutnate

[worn burrow]

Is there a trigger for him on pve? Do I need to prone in grass for 15 minutes or what lol

[next glade]

@worn burrow

This will spawn partizan more often but buyer beware💀

[worn burrow]

I know about pmc karma but it only gives you the sound on pvp I thought

[next glade]

I havent personally heard the sound but the system should still be there

The way ive run into him the most is on woods, go to the cult bunker and statmax in there

Looks like low damage weapon maxxing is also going to be the best for aim drills🥲

[tight mural]

I seem to find him on shorline and woods mostly. I've rarely seen him on customs.

[elder storm]

Speak Spanish?

[dry sleet]

it took me 150 raids to get him when i was doing snowball. but i just kept doing local dorms loot runs and he showed up. my buddy is doing snowball now only because we did a raid on shoreline together yesterday and somehow partizan spawned and he got him. so seems its just crappy rngeez to even hope he spawns

[solar venture]

Brother I am dealing with this as well. he's been MIA for some time now

[jovial cobalt]

#regional-communities message

[timid tendon]

yellow, violet, outside of black keycards
the cat meeting room table / near the table in between those 3 rooms

you can do a little loop while also looting the rooms it's very nice

[solar venture]

im having the same problem

[dry sleet]

have the goons rotation thing been fixed or are they still just whatever % on all their maps?

[jovial cobalt]

not rotating again yet

[worn burrow]

Had em on two different maps b2b earlier so I doubt

[dry sleet]

okay was wondering cuz my buddys trying snowball and i took 11 days to find partizan, he found party but cant find goons so

[worn burrow]

11 days whaaaaaaaaat

I don't want this achievement anymore

[dry sleet]

yep, i spent 11 days for that 1 man

[solar venture]

FML no way

[pseudo kayak]

im only endurance rank 25 😭

[next glade]

Oi yall come take your partizan, i wouldve had capturing outposts done for woods if he hadnt spawned here

[agile mantle]

got him lol

the guards were harder than him lmao

grabbed a KS from one and killed kaban

[gleaming junco]

I played with my video settings and now all items' icon look like shit. I can't get it back to the way they were. Does anyone knows which video settings affect the way items' icon look like ?

[solar venture]

I FINALLY got PARTISAN!

[agile mantle]

got PKM for gunsmith too

[solar venture]

42 raids

he pushed INTO dorms on Customs local

[jovial cobalt]

perhaps send screenshot of ur settings ?

[solar venture]

like 5 mins into raid, hadn't even finished clearing the Dorms

[agile mantle]

fmj sad

[whole birch]

any1 got any tips for pest control and pinewood kills?

[agile mantle]

oh ffs you need pkp

[mystic yoke]

If i do terminal with 2 other buddies (3 people) are we all guaranteed to have a spot out?

[hallow moon]

why are rogues not spawning?

[jovial cobalt]

1-3 players means 100% seats yes

4-5 is where there is a chance to be left behind

[jovial cobalt]

they got sleepy

[hallow moon]

I NEED THEM TO WAKE UP THE ONE TIME I NEED TO KILL THEM AND THEYRE NO WHERE TO BE FOUND

is it part of the april fools update?

like blickies deal 25 damage, reshala n his boyz are loaded with em, and rogues went on a field trip out of state?

[jovial cobalt]

do PVE AI pmc spawns correlate directly to PVP pmc spawns? i need to find pmcs on woods and idk if i should check hotspots or check wiki map and run through areas with many pmc spawns

[abstract nymph]

Yes, those are rhe same spawns

[sleek cobalt]

Are cultist still 11 percent on factory

[abstract nymph]

I'll check for you really quick, day or nigh

Night?

[sleek cobalt]

Night? They only spawn at night I thought

[abstract nymph]

12% night

[sleek cobalt]

Thank you so much

ye after you complete to great heights part 3 in pve then you can send gp coins and or roubles from arena to pve

[jovial cobalt]

looks like the wiki got updated to say that too so aye seems correct

[west sigil]

Oh, that's gonna be so goddamn hard to do.

I'm passably decent at online shooters, but every match I play our team gets stomped.

[candid fog]

thanks sir.

[lone thicket]

even if my team wins in arena i'm never 3rd or better

[jovial cobalt]

i think i put like 600 hours into arena and now im at the point where atleast in lh and cpt i can consistently hit top 2

stupid shit like knowing where people tend to go to so i check that spot every time

[lone thicket]

like in tarkov pvp, i die so frequently the learning where people go and the strats people use is so unenjoyable.

[finite tide]

would you know the spawn rate for them?

[timid tendon]

nope

[jovial cobalt]

not high enough

[west mist]

oops

accidentally killed 'shala's guards

while scaving

scav rep tanked at least .14

[timid tendon]

i just pulled out an m18 smoke grenade and it started spewing while it was still in my hand, pin still inserted lmao

as soon as i threw it, the smoke disappeared and the new smoke started coming out of the grenade on the ground

[stone harbor]

nice one, a new bug!

[jovial cobalt]

huh
woods and lighthouse taken off of bsg server only today

[stone harbor]

yay!!!

[rugged cargo]

Are local scav raids still broken?

[stone harbor]

how broken?

[rugged cargo]

After extracting, I can't hit the quick sell

[stone harbor]

the damn BSG server stopped me from having instant raid to 10 mins for 1 fucking raid

[stone harbor]

damn, I scaved last night, still able to seel

maybe network unstabe or sum shit

but why quick sell to Fence?

[rugged cargo]

its been like that for my pve scav for a month

[stone harbor]

that bastard gives horrible prices

[rugged cargo]

too much roubles, i don't give a shit about my stuff

[stone harbor]

ahhhh rich PMC, makes sense

[rugged cargo]

just waiting for pve prestiege like Nikita said so I can escape tarkov again.

[bronze saddle]

Can somebody explain to me what is an RNT seller/buyer?

[stone harbor]

RNT?

[rugged cargo]

I want to transfer my acid green flares, thats the only thing I really care about in my stash

[rugged cargo]

you mean RMT?

[stone harbor]

Real Money Transaction is what you mean?

[bronze saddle]

RMT mistype

[rugged cargo]

You spend your real money for virtual shit like roubles or kits or rare stuff like MSGL stuff

You pay, a seller would either have you list stuff on the flea to pay you or go into a raid and drop you the stuff you bought, Don't do it. You'll get banned

[bronze saddle]

Wait... how do they get banned?

[stone harbor]

Conduct these operation at your own peril. I can sell you stuff and then report you for doing the RMT. 😄

[bronze saddle]

Oh so backstabbing lol ok, cause im reading the banned report

[stone harbor]

no seller would do this but who knows

[bronze saddle]

24% others lol dafuck is others if it aint cheating?

[stone harbor]

but... Cheater is 54% holy shiet

I'm glad I play PvE

[bronze saddle]

Expected higher %

[stone harbor]

a friend of mine got frustrated with the Terminal, he blatantly said he will buy a cheat, just to god mode thro it. If that fucker of mine do that, Imma report tf out of him XD

[bronze saddle]

Automated leveling bots, KD lowering, huh? Why the fuck would you fuck up your KD with a script? And how does one level up with bots?

[stone harbor]

bots auto raid auto loot auto exfil with scripts, they used the same logic as the AI in the game, I reckon.

[bronze saddle]

That sounds DISGUSTING!! Also i doubt the bots can outsmart bosses like a human can UNLESS if can learn patterns from other people eating dust or succeeding

[astral fulcrum]

Becouse a profile with 300 survives 0 deaths is sus

[stone harbor]

yep, what is even the point of playing? I get the gist of not having the time, but to resort to cheat to just get over the level gate is just defeating the idea behind it

it might be considered a time sink, but if you get to level 45~47, you are more than ready for the Terminal both in skills and gears wise XD

[bronze saddle]

Well my stats are rather high and my survival rate 97% and im lvl60. Also no lol i have YET to reach the terminal to escape

[shy pollen]

Running day factory has no purpose ngl

Like, you should always run night bc maybe you get cultists and also cooler

[bronze saddle]

Who said i run day Factory? I hate it cause its 20 minutes only while at night its 25 minutes. Also Tagilla spawns more frequently at night so easy money. Then again i stopped going to Factory, cause i have NO MORE WEAPONS TO MASTER 3. Except for the SG SPEAR which ill do it when i feel like it

[main eagle]

do goons spawn even if I don't play on bsg servers?

[quartz storm]

woohoo! finally finished escort
now just one more level of strength to have elite and I should more reliably be able to get endurance levels!

(well I mean be able to run the builds I like AND get endurance, I tend to kit out fat)

[stable tinsel]

If you occasionally drop gear for your friend that’s okay right? Like if they die in a raid you can bring their stuff back or give them some nvgs?

[final breach]

i wish people would stop reporting goons on goon tracker when theyre not playing on bsg servers

[tight mural]

yes

[main eagle]

thanks!

[main eagle]

I won't tell if you won't

[bronze saddle]

Mah brutha MY build is 55kg with max strength lol

[west sigil]

I want to understand the mentality behind locking arena to PvE/PvP transfers behind To Great Heights pt.3

[stable tinsel]

Lol nah. Tarkov pretty much the only game I play anymore I don’t want to risk bans I was just curious like what they allow and don’t allow when it comes to sharing gear. Like if you aren’t trading money etc.

[bronze saddle]

Yeah its dumb giving us Arena tasks if we dont have Arena, its stupid.. like give us dailies or something to cap out Ref's rep

[tight mural]

The goons spawn on the same map they're normally in rotation whether it's official or not. The goons are everywhere right now and we don't know if it's event related or a permanent change to combat chatting about where they saw them last.

[west sigil]

I can't fucking tell who's on my goddamn team

The armbands aren't visible from more than a handful of meters away

People need to have glowsticks taped to their bodies

[stable tinsel]

I hope the goons spawning every map isnt permanent. They my biggest ops

[tight mural]

It started around the blicky event so it may be apart of that.

I've been chasing them for hours. Couldn't and still can't find them

[shy pollen]

What is my ragman trade😭

[stone harbor]

this is why you and your buddies need to have battle sense and location relay

[shy pollen]

I get one altyn face shield if I give him three altyn face shields

[fervent peak]

You trade three damaged ones for a fresh one

[shy pollen]

Hm

Well I can’t buy the altyns

[stone harbor]

battle sense as to know where you are & your teammate's location, location relay as to calling your position to your teammate relatively to their previous location, and vice versa

[fervent peak]

In this game, you can't fully fix a face shield without cracks in it. Once it's damage, you're better off selling the cracked one and buying a new one

[shy pollen]

Hm well..

[stone harbor]

In real-life combat, that is the skill that you will always learn unless you are just a foot soldier

[shy pollen]

I don’t use Altyns I use the maska’s

[stone harbor]

I dont use Altyn, I use the Trooper

cant hear shit = get ganked on easily

[shy pollen]

I mean yeah but earpros

[stone harbor]

earpros just nulify the debuff of wearing a full face helmet, like you wear a normal helmet without a headset

[shy pollen]

I mean yeah but like

I don’t like

Need hearing a ton

Me personally.

[stone harbor]

trust me, in PvE, even in Terminal, you dont need full face helmet

[west sigil]

My buddies? I'm a solo player, I don't have friends.

[trim kettle]

Dude

You don't need much for terminal

[shy pollen]

I mean yeah ai aim for main body mass I think

[stone harbor]

you are prioritize on survival i see, nothing wrong with that

[trim kettle]

I ran it with GPVNGs on an exfil, thats it

No death shadow, no altyn, nothing

[stone harbor]

this is true, unless they crouch

[stable tinsel]

They used to beam head eyes and jaws not that long ago on pve tho

[stone harbor]

they still beam you yes, when they are crouched, other than that, just pure luck

[shy pollen]

OH TAGILLA YES PLEASE

FIGHT ME

[stable tinsel]

I think the current ai accuracy etc is super fun right now. It is way better than what is used to be not long ago. My buddy once peeked at the rogues on water treatment and got shot in the face shield 3 times in like the blink of an eye.

[shy pollen]

I always would get head eyes’d out of no where

[trim kettle]

[trim kettle]

There's a video/meme of that shit happening on PVP a few years back

Its so fucking funny

[stone harbor]

yeah, the AI right now is something like this, from my experience: If you agro them or they have LoS to your location, they will prioritize your torso. If you peek, meaning only your arms and head poked out, they will aim somewhat at the outer torso/neck and the recoil will take care of the rest

[stable tinsel]

Fighting the goons in like October November was wild last year.

[shy pollen]

I have NEVER seen the goons they’re scared of me

[stable tinsel]

I should have clipped it but I always forget to do that. He literally went “I’ll peek them real quick.” Then leaned out and “pop pop pop” and immediately ducked back inside lol

[shy pollen]

It’s because I put the milk in first

[west sigil]

That may be it

[whole birch]

what tf is going on with ai? every ai is kobe bryant reincarnated perfect nading

[stone harbor]

I did the Fence's assignment, 4/5 PMC kills in Shoreline, heard intense gunfight on the radar, climbed up and 1~2 taps a head of a NPC that looked like a PMC, Ticket said failed, Straydog said subtask completed

welp, fuck me last night XD

[fervent peak]

That's one way to finish... something

[tight mural]

If you hear the pin drop, just change to another place of cover ASAP lol

[shy pollen]

Crazy lol

[stone harbor]

this is why I love headset, I heard a moment of silence and then a "ping", I just booked it from that position

[shy pollen]

Alr y’all im heading off for tonight, cya tmmr!

[stone harbor]

good night brother

[shy pollen]

I will be cultist hunting tomorrow, I will find them I swear

[stone harbor]

[whole birch]

did ai aim/behavior get changed? im dying to the craziest shit

[stone harbor]

either you got lucky to have the head, eyes randomly, or the AI crouched and you got shit on XD

the AI is cracked shooting but not as bad as before

[west sigil]

Once I get To Great Heights pt3 done, I might never touch Arena again

Or just do my dailies and not give a fuck about anything else

Of course that's an if I can do it

[main eagle]

isn't their spawn rate like 35%?

[stone harbor]

Goons are now everywhere, it has been so for idk, 2 months already brother

Locals or BSG servers are the same thing, so that website is not gonna help much

[stone goblet]

@final breach Do not discuss these websites. They violate TOS

[final breach]

my bad papa

[final breach]

on local yeah

on bsg they stay at a certain map for like 30 minutes or so before moving

[stone goblet]

no they dont

[thin river]

5 str8 night raids no cultist .

[stone goblet]

they're a set spawn rate on both on every map right now

and prior to that, local and bsg servers behaved the same, as confirmed by one of the devs on twitter

[final breach]

oh thats sick actually, i always try to hunt goons consistantly, free labs access cards for low levels

[stone goblet]

aye theyve done it for a few weeks now

[final breach]

ahhhhh see i have been really busy for a couple months now, only recently just started a fresh wipe on pve to get back into things

[thin river]

i got them 3 str8 raids on light house earlier

[stone goblet]

ye

and as i said, there was a misconception with how the goons rotated on bsg servers vs local - they behaved the same

[final breach]

you get a bunch of marker quests early on in customs, so my route is always been quest, goons, reshala, 314 marked room profit

[final breach]

thats actually cool to know

[whole birch]

wtf is going on???? i opened 1 hangar door and ACTUALLY 15 raiders spawned

[austere solstice]

guys,ive handed in all of the 32 minor and 8 major evidence to kerman for saviour.
I told him i cant find any more,he told me to find more and i agreed to look for more evidence for him.

now the ticket quest it at the "confirm with kerman that all evidenc eis found"

after "negotiation"

is that right,i didnt mess up for the ending?

[summer zinc]

dude last night killa suddenly decide to do 360 no scope turn to shot down me and my friend 💀 after solid 4 5h raid row

[jovial cobalt]

also (during normal rotation) its like 2 to 5 hours it seems like

[candid quiver]

Man i just want more lmgs or lmg parts

Like the hexagon handguard or suppressor that was teased for the pkm/pkp

[mossy blade]

ryzhy type shit

[mossy blade]

why do you want a suppressor for a MULE

[final breach]

atm they can be anywhere, set spawn rate on everymap

[mossy blade]

i fucking hate the goons

[odd gale]

Why?

[toxic patio]

Very unfun

[mossy blade]

Theyre a burden

Like im slowly going insane that I find them more than regular bosses

[odd gale]

They fun to kill

[toxic patio]

They’re just

So boring

[mossy blade]

Not if youre doing a dozen quests

And fighting them on Blue chalet or Shoreline

Ive killed Reshala only ONCE this wipe (character wipe)

[toxic patio]

They’re just

Like

[mossy blade]

Especially if you need to run that ass AK-12

[toxic patio]

The loot isn’t that good

[mossy blade]

Yeah and theyve got aimbot

[toxic patio]

The gear isn’t that good

they’re sucky to fight

[mossy blade]

Id like if Goons were actually remastered

Like improve their loot their armor etcetra

[toxic patio]

If you’re indoors you auto win because they always push you one by one by one

[mossy blade]

Heck maybe even introduce guards for them

[toxic patio]

If you’re outdoors they beam you from 100m away

[mossy blade]

Like some Rogues (as said by Jaeger Knight has his own troops)

[toxic patio]

(Slime I’m p sure that’s pipe and birdeye)

[mossy blade]

I deadass shat my pants when a .338 slammed to the ground right next to me on Woods

[mossy blade]

Theyre like a trio that works together thats why theyre bosses

[toxic patio]

They’re an Ex Usec squad

They’re all PMC’s, basically just the best of the rouges

[jovial cobalt]

ik ik

[cosmic patrol]

they still rotate, no? It aint purely set spawn

??event

[quasi apex]

It's April fools' day! Accept the new task "Bucket of Nothing" from Prapor to get started!

[mossy blade]

theyre Tier 3 or something

Bucket of Nothing has been going on for a week

[cosmic patrol]

@onyx depot

Struggling so hard to write the command man

[raw nest]

They don’t rotate

[cosmic patrol]

why the fuck they remove that shit, MAAAAAN

[jade saffron]

the wiki says they still rotate, I am gonna recommend to trust that

[cosmic patrol]

i trust wiki

[mossy blade]

plot twist: They dont

As the saying goes!: Wiki is sometimes in certain topics outdated!

[night echo]

yo whos resetting his acc in pve rn

[dusky magnet]

it's bugged, as far as we know they are indeed supposed to rotate ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mossy blade]

I did 2 weeks ago

Or something like that

[onyx depot]

Has anyone read the news feed on cheaters on the launcher?

[mossy blade]

Id need to check my achievements

[mossy blade]

I did

[onyx depot]

Why is it so badly written?

[night echo]

some1 is rn and i got like 4 thicc weapon cases

waiting for item tho

[mossy blade]

no idea probably smoked nikita wrote it during some family event

[onyx depot]

It sounds like it

[mossy blade]

I wipe after escaping

Rn going for Debtor and I need to likeeee get to Lightkeeper atm

And 4 COFDMs are.. pain.

[jade saffron]

I share your pain, currently just scavving on reserve to farm the airdrops

had 1 drop with 2 of them and I know I am delusional, but I am gambling

[raw nest]

It doesn’t work now

[jovial cobalt]

^ i attest

[agile mantle]

love when 6hr cultist circle gives me 2 underbarrel grenade launchers

[weary ice]

What type of quest does this man have 😭

[agile mantle]

I don't, thats the problem

I'm assuming grenade launchers don't count as hand grenades?

[tight mural]

no, but under barrel grenade launchers have been putting XP into the rocket launcher mastering skill instead of the under barrel launcher. I've used the M203 Launcher for the M4 platforms and all my XP went into the rocket launcher skill.

[mossy blade]

Probably art of explosion I guess

[alpine vigil]

anyone know the best ammo to run to 0 out enemy plates but not kill them?

[normal horizon]

blicky

[quartz storm]

I think 5.45 prs is decently bad?

[jade saffron]

trying to get cofdm on reserve
0 cofdm
3 armor repair kits

[tight mural]

I've been finding them on Streets lately like crazy. Cardinal Apt and the Game Dev studio has been working for me pretty frequently.

[median frigate]

I can recommend rb-bk and rb-pkpts

[jovial cobalt]

9 pmc kills on 1 woods raid

we're eating good now

[jade saffron]

gonna try that then

[astral fulcrum]

Go lighthouse for cofdm

[mossy blade]

Isnt RB BK a marked room

[tepid wind]

I'm gonna strangle nikita he removed bilcky reshala the second I went in to kill him for huntsman path relentless

[mossy blade]

where on LH

[tepid wind]

I saved him for last too

[mossy blade]

The event is over?

[tepid wind]

apparently yeah

[mossy blade]

??event

[quasi apex]

It's April fools' day! Accept the new task "Bucket of Nothing" from Prapor to get started!

[tepid wind]

the wiki removed it from its active events area and his boys had their normal guns back

[tight mural]

Event is over, I saw him and the boys a bit ago with normal pew pews

[astral fulcrum]

Both chales
Broken boxes
Rouge roofs
Rouge towers in wooden boxes
Merin
Hillside house
So many spawns

[median frigate]

Yh but should be cheap
Loot is ass 8/10 times
Only cofdm or keycard spawns make it worth it

[tepid wind]

I'm so fucking pissed I was actually going to have it fucking done this wipe

[mossy blade]

I mean Marked rooms arent worth it rn, Labs are craxy cheap

And theyre profitable

[tight mural]

Dang just missed it by an hour or so

[mossy blade]

I mean Reshala isnt even that hard

The worst is probably Glukhar

[tepid wind]

oh 100% I just wasn't expecting them to have guns and pushed them at a bad angle at new gas

[median frigate]

Nah reserve ones are worth it

Run the 3 to one use, take the keycards u find on a labs run, craft and sell the 314

[mossy blade]

Reshala is literally just a group of scavs with AKs

[mossy blade]

Ohhhh thats profitable

[tepid wind]

I simply just don't want to do relentless anymore

like I wasted most of the afternoon doing that bullshit and I'm back to square one

[mossy blade]

Yoy can do it while doing other tasks

Its Reshala Killa Tagilla Shturman Glukhar Sanitar no?

[median frigate]

Glukar is the same but more scavs

Only thing that worries me is goons and killa
And the Grenade accuracy of kabans guards

[mossy blade]

Killa is actually dogshit

Aim for his throat and shoot him in the throat

Its tier 3 armor on the throat

[tepid wind]

I've done every quest in the game besides like, drip out part 2 and the last lightkeeper quest

[mossy blade]

Do the lightkeeper quest its a SPEAR quest

[tepid wind]

I'm time locked I haven't actually unlocked it yet

[weary ice]

Why are there so many bots in pve Lfg does anyone know

[tepid wind]

but thats just gonna be grinding streets to get that and gendarmerie done

[median frigate]

Bc of other games it is quite unnatural to not aim for the head
Thats why he is the hardest for me

[tepid wind]

I have no quests to take me to anything other than lighthouse or streets

[candid quiver]

If you are confident, Killa literally just becomes a tankier Scav

[mossy blade]

Tagilla became more dangerous than Killa

Like he becomes Minotaur once he takes out his sledgehammer

[weary ice]

Killa from range is scary

[tepid wind]

killas only dangerous when he has ppbs in his gun

[weary ice]

To me. Atleast

[mossy blade]

The scary thing is why youre fighting him long range

[tepid wind]

and like he barely spawns with that anyway

[candid quiver]

Every single time i encounter him, its just "Why is that Scav not dying?" and then putting another burst into him

[median frigate]

5-10 rounds to the head at 850 rpm, no biggie tbh

[mossy blade]

I shot an entire mag of PP 5.45 into his arms and thorax and he tanked it all

[candid quiver]

Tagilla is also only scary at like really close range, other than that hes kinda silly

Kollontay is my absolute nemesis

I despise him cuz of the stupid baton

[astral fulcrum]

get a gun that cannot jam

[candid quiver]

Like how is the baton scarier than tagilla sledgehammdr

[median frigate]

Why are you running pp
Just zero his mask wirh bp

[tepid wind]

kollontays awful on second floor mall but like you can just run away from the baton

like he will just give up the chase

[weary ice]

Anyone know why pve-Lfg is botted?

[tepid wind]

anyway. I might just wait till bosses are 100% or something to do relentless again the worst part is just tracking them down

[mossy blade]

Cause I was doing secure perimeter

[tepid wind]

wdym

[weary ice]

Made on April 6

Plenty of these people

Generic pfp, made 2 or 3 days ago

Same message all the time pretty much

[candid quiver]

I deadass feel like bosses are 100% all the time, i almost always run into them on their respective maps

[median frigate]

Just take 1 mag in gun and one backup with cheap ammo and one bp

[tepid wind]

I just dislike hunting down sanitar and glukhar

[weary ice]

Well 75% ur gonna run into them more times then not

[candid quiver]

Yes those are annoying

[timid tendon]

hunting them is half the fun

the thrill of the hunt

[tepid wind]

I prefer the certainty of an 100% event yknow

[tepid wind]

I mean not really

the thrill of the hunt requires the thing you're hunting to actually be there

[candid quiver]

Shturman is predictable, Tagilla is usually half dead by the time you find him and Killa is just hoping you find him when hes hiding in some dark hole

[tepid wind]

tagillas actually really easy cause he just spawns on interchange

[candid quiver]

True

Forgot about that

[tepid wind]

like you can kill him in the same raid as you kill killa and it's nice and efficent

[mossy blade]

I mean there is no hard boss in this game

Rogues have perchancs some of Black Divs AI

[timid tendon]

he spawns there less than other bosses do on their respective maps

[candid quiver]

Tho im not too pressed about Relentless cuz the reward is eh

[weary ice]

Just open kiba, for whatever reason killa loves the loud noises

[timid tendon]

the best tip for relentless is bait the boss around a corner or into a doorway and you win every time

[candid quiver]

I usually just rush everything

[tepid wind]

I just want it done

[candid quiver]

Thor + RysT turns you into a tank so

[tepid wind]

I've already maxed out crafting but I kinda wanted my goal for this run to just complete every quest

[timid tendon]

not against the goons in a long range battle it won't

[candid quiver]

Fair fair

[tepid wind]

I have a feeling I'm gonna be waiting for them to make capturing outposts easier before I actually finish everything

[candid quiver]

Well, We werent talking about the goons, but even there close range would be preferable

[timid tendon]

we were talking about all bosses

[tepid wind]

idk it started as a conversation about the relentless bosses so I guess we were just going from there

[candid quiver]

Fair, but even for goons i try to get as close to them as possible before engaging

Does relentless give any skills on completion?

[tepid wind]

crafting and immunity

which is extremely meh

like immunity is never gonna be a high enough level to matter and crafting can be grinded out to max before level 55

being able to craft rysTs is nice but like, I have more than enough altyns

[autumn topaz]

what were they going to add into the room with the gym and stuff like there is a corner that is empty and it always has me up at night thinking what could of been there

[tepid wind]

I don't think they've ever said anything about whats going there

[candid quiver]

Crafring for ryst is unlocked by Escort

[tepid wind]

I reckon it's probably gonna have something to do with the hideout cat when they get around to adding it

[tight mural]

Is that the rumored cat corner?

[tepid wind]

mb, goes to show how little I care about it

[autumn topaz]

fleix the cat?

[candid quiver]

Yeah its eh

[tepid wind]

I do hope they do a redux of the skills one day

they had skill trees in contract wars which might be mildly more interesting

[autumn topaz]

was there a map name suburb?

[tepid wind]

or at least tiered bonus abilities like oblivion

[tepid wind]

yeah, they've either scrapped it or it's going to be added later as a dlc

[autumn topaz]

I am excited for scav life man I wonder what that will bring with the ice breaker map

[willow tinsel]

They already did

[candid quiver]

Maybe, my goal rn is to get health and vitality to elite

[tepid wind]

a proper one, the funko doesn't count

[candid quiver]

Because if those 2 actually work as described you just turn into the punisher

[raw nest]

Idk they come in waves

[tepid wind]

idk according to the wiki damage absorbtion doesn't do anything

[candid quiver]

Yeah i thought it may have been fixed with 1.0, but vitality seems to be working

But thats still alot of lvling to be done

My next 2 skills to be elite are attention and perception

[tepid wind]

I find elite perception annoying

like it's impossible to actually locate what the dots telling you at that level

[cosmic patrol]

@forest forum daily fuck you

[raw nest]

Try for elite stress resistance

It’s kinda fire

[forest forum]

stop slacking bro its not even daily

[candid quiver]

Fair but attention in combination with elite search is just peak

[cosmic patrol]

sorry man i got afucking life

[forest forum]

freaking normie 💀

[cosmic patrol]

says the fuckin re... yeah nevermind

[tepid wind]

I wish they'd kept in the faction exclusive skills

[candid quiver]

I wish mastery actually did something

[forest forum]

wait do you actually hate me

im reporting you

[candid quiver]

Instead of just "reload while ads"

[raw nest]

??geon

[raw nest]

Haha

[tepid wind]

I've seen a rendition of those where bears get a bonus xp reward from quests and where usecs get more money from them

which like might make bear worth taking other than for asthetics

[candid quiver]

Like idk if i have the pkm masterey, let me reload faster or give me a ergo boost

[tepid wind]

but thats that the lmg skill is for

silly

[candid quiver]

Ik, but id like for mastery to do something in addition

[waxen seal]

I am tired boss....
After 34 Labs raids, I found
Advanced current converter: 0
FF GPS: 0
Ledx: 1
GPU: 2
I have been scanning all 2nd floor and below, around the dome area, yellow, green, red, violet rooms, offices, desks, duffle bags, everything...
Am I that unlucky, or am I missing something?
I ran out of Labs access keycards...

[tepid wind]

you are incredibly unlucky holy shit

[candid quiver]

Or like if i use a gun i have mastered, i get more exp for the respective skill and not the other way around.
By the time you have any gun skill at elite lvl, youll have mastered every gun in that class 10 times

[tepid wind]

it might be better to go do lightkeeper for the barters twin

[willow tinsel]

Thats just how labs loot is rn

[median frigate]

how
literally ... howww
like ... do you check 1 thing per raid? I cannot even fathom a person this unlucky

[willow tinsel]

Not being unlucky

Since loot nerf, your chances of finding that current converter is slim

[candid quiver]

Unironically, i find the best loot on labs outside of keyrooms and such

[willow tinsel]

Ofc theres still loot

[candid quiver]

Like duffelbags and shit

[median frigate]

i literally find one every ~3-4 raids

[willow tinsel]

Alright

You are lucky

There's nothing more to it

[candid quiver]

I found one converter but i dont run labs much

[cosmic patrol]

😉

[willow tinsel]

You find one right now, ill give you 3 or 4 raids to do it

[cosmic patrol]

Birch boutta @ me with the nice ! ban 421401266099322880

[willow tinsel]

And you screenshot it

You may use every keycard possible, im just saying, the loot ain't that good as it was

[candid quiver]

I wish there was actually some joy in finding such rare items like ACC, but once you have thhe one you need for hideout its just useless

[candid quiver]

Keycards and such are overrated anyways

[median frigate]

got 2 from yellow, one from pruple and one from red in the last maybe 18 raids

[willow tinsel]

I'm giving him the option to do so

[candid quiver]

I find my treasures in the trash like a true scavenger

[willow tinsel]

I found about the same, a few days ago, that doesnt mean It wasn't a rare spawn

[candid quiver]

The true joys when selling tape for 50k a piece

[willow tinsel]

But if you truly can find one every 3 or 4 raids, I'll bet

[median frigate]

i forgot food

[tepid wind]

I wonder if they'll ever get around to adding that clan system they were talking about

having a group hideout you can all work towards would be cool

[candid quiver]

Just turn tarkov into a MMO ong

[tepid wind]

i wanna do a hypixel co-op with my buddies on tarkov

[candid quiver]

Id like a like post extraction terminal map, like after you escape you unlockna version of the map to run normally

[tepid wind]

it's already got the instanced content and awful pro scene they'd fit right in

[tepid wind]

yeah idk why they didn't do that

actual mmo raid to get the high tier gear off of the boss mobs

[candid quiver]

Id also like more dynamic stuff on maps

Like not just "is there a dead body there or not" but like "Is that wall blow open" or "This ambushed convoy with good tier loot, but protected by rogues"

Or like dynamic traders and such idk

And maybe guns that are actually useable instead of just being gimmicks

[willow tinsel]

theres a 2nd place for you to find that converter, Labrys, im just giving you another option if you get tired of labs

[tepid wind]

are you sure it does?

[willow tinsel]

? if i found some why cant he

[tepid wind]

the microcontroller board does but the acc and gps don't

[willow tinsel]

i found ACC in there

back of tractor-observatory room

[tepid wind]

I don't think he should be relying on a spawn I don't thinks even still in the game

like a labs raid is a lot less of a headache than a labryrinth raid

[willow tinsel]

I said

if he gets tired of labs

it is another option

Not a ''you should def go here 100%''

farming in 1 place can be tiring, in my experience

[tepid wind]

yeah I just don't think you can get an ACC on labyrinth

you're the only person like, on the internet saying you can. I've run it a fuck tonne and I've never found one

[willow tinsel]

Because i found one

Not saying it is 100% there all the time

it is possible, its a spawn

how many raids did you do since 1.0

[tepid wind]

20 or so, I've never seen an ACC

I've seen plenty of MBs, but that's the only labs exclusive electronics I've seen there

[drowsy anchor]

if it falls into lets say a tech item category and there is a tech spawn in labrinth, then it has the same % chance to spawn as any other map mate

[median frigate]

yoo, first raid of the day, first ledx of the day

[candid quiver]

According to the wiki it can only spawn on labs

[drowsy anchor]

oh i thought it wasn't limited to maps, nice to know

[candid quiver]

Few items are, but the acc is one of them

Even tho it doesnt make sense cuz youd find a current converter in like any welding device

[tepid wind]

eh, the item description has some shit about how it's more 'secure' and 'quality'

idk knowing how crackheads work irl all of the civilian ones were probably stripped for copper the second the contract wars started

maybe cultists eat em idk

[candid quiver]

Unlikely, cuz the copperitself wouldnt be wortth much in a apocalyptic enviroemtn

Even a scavenger would know that "hm this tool that still works is probably worth alot more INTACT"

[tepid wind]

must be the cultists then

[hollow kettle]

Hey guys. I last played in december, were there any major improvments to qol or optimization since then?

[tepid wind]

idk customs runs a bit better

uh they added a border to the highlighted window

i'd just check back through the patchnotes on the wiki

[willow tinsel]

i found the first one at Lighthouse, very start of the wipe, at the dead guy in pool area

So yeah, take it with a grain of salt

[tepid wind]

are you sure we're talking about the same thing?

[willow tinsel]

Yea

but you can choose to believe me or not

[mystic yoke]

Very late lol but yes those are the new times

[willow tinsel]

Idc, its up to you

[tepid wind]

idk are you sure you're not thinking of an AESA? like, ACCs spawning anywhere but labs kinda defeats the whole point of the item

[willow tinsel]

very sure its the big rectangular yellow converter yes, but i say take it with a grain of salt, start of wipe was boosted with loot everywhere

[dreamy mantle]

i got mine like 2 weeks ago on labs in Violet. and then i saw one for sale from Fence

[median frigate]

quad btc raid, less go 2 in new black, one yellow, one res

[willow tinsel]

but i get you, it might hav been 1 in a million, like the 1 in a million where i found 2 314 marked room keys 2 jackets right next to each other

[tepid wind]

I mean I'm not denying you found em but yeah, lighthouse and labryinth wouldn't be where I'd tell people to look for one

[willow tinsel]

i wouldnt bet on Lighthouse either for now

[hollow kettle]

Another question, were there any changes to marked rooms? Last time I remember them being pretty bad, felt a lot easier to just sell the key rather than bother looting them

[tepid wind]

loots been buffed pretty well

imo, at least

labs cards and taigas and shit spawn a lot more frequently

[hollow kettle]

Might start playing again

[median frigate]

i ran 314 a weeks ago for 8 uses
had 2 keycards spawn every time (and only once did i not make a "profit")

[tepid wind]

I had a double ledx 314 the other day

[hollow kettle]

From what I've seen recent updates have been really good

[tepid wind]

I mean a lot of it's just been ironing out issues with launch

[hollow kettle]

And that's exactly what I wanted

[median frigate]

ppl said rb-pkpm is even better than 314 rn, but i didnt run it since the "buff"
found a cofdm in rb-bk tho

[hollow kettle]

rip to all my insured items and fuel cause I just quit one day and never bothered to save any of it

[tepid wind]

it is nice that they're doing that but I've always been more of a fan of content updates

I can deal with buggy shit as long as there's something to do that's interesting

[hollow kettle]

I mean, I still have absolutely no hope of ever beating the game

so, content is virtually never ending for me

[tepid wind]

why's that?

[hollow kettle]

Do I need to explain that?

[tepid wind]

I mean, is it a skill issue or a time issue

[hollow kettle]

uhh, both I guess

If I had no time issue probably wouldn't have as much of a skill issue

[tepid wind]

I mean tarkov as a whole is just a commitment of time

i'm dogshit at the game and I've still completed most of it, and that's probably just cause I'm young and still in trade school

[hollow kettle]

also, the new story missions are really boring

They are literally just fetch quests with notes, except you have no idea where to go and where to fetch and what unless you open the wiki and look at the guide

[tepid wind]

I was didn't mind doing a lot of the story beacause I was trying to do it without a guide but it immediately got boring when I got stuck and wikied my way out

[hollow kettle]

I'm just playing the game and shooting AI, I'm good. I remember I was doing the story missions but only if they were convinient alongside normal quests

[tepid wind]

and the timegates (which they have shrunk) were really fucking awful

[hollow kettle]

I remember the last thing I dyd was labrys story

[tepid wind]

I think I also got bummed that there just isn't a reward for any of them

[hollow kettle]

And it was extremely dogshit and basically 100% unbeatable unless you knew exactly what you were doing, it was this buggy

To beat it you needed to have a very specific backpack with space in it cause whoever programmed that shit was high and drunk

no idea if it's still the case

[hollow kettle]

That too. If there was at least a real in game reward for them, I'd be more okay, number go up or seeing a new gun or key is still dopamine. But not even that, you just get some notes and papers explaining some shit, I aint reading all that.

[raw nest]

I don’t think that’s true

[jade saffron]

your tip is working, just not as intended
2 graphics cards and ton of statues but no Cofdm

[tight mural]

Glad to help my friend. I did find one in the abandoned factory marked room as well. That place has been giving some pretty good key cards as well.

[thorn roost]

the funny room on reserve bunker at the end of that weird hallway on the left
RB-PKPTS

and labrys if it gets desperate

[jovial cobalt]

got back to terminal on my second playthruogh

i wonder if i can beat terminal first try

[cunning sequoia]

Anyone wanna run terminal soon maybe

[tight mural]

I forgot to mention that in the game dev's building, check not only on top of every desk, but the negotiation room is a good spot to check too.

[tepid wind]

If you're willing they spawned pretty frequently on labrynith for me

[jade saffron]

don't have access to it

[tepid wind]

Huh, forgot that they locked it behind the story

[raw nest]

Barter is locked behind story

[tepid wind]

Yeah, I did it back around 1.0 launch and forgot about it

[final geode]

hey does the preload hideout setting work ?? I dont seem to notice any difference

and I dont get it I have show quick slots on always show but they still disappear

*when equiping nades and holding G it hides it and I have no clue what nade I pick

it hides it sometimes just like heal UI or reload the mag UI

yea pressing any quickslot except melee or weapons hides the UI, but that wasnt always the case and I didnt change any settaings

[sinful marten]

is scav looting bugged?

as i was spawn with scav gear and looted stuff and extracted then i got the gear what i spawned with not what i looted

[raw nest]

Happens now

[sinful marten]

ok will do

[craggy meteor]

ash-12 goes hard for farming tagilla xd

[marble bronze]

Ash-12 is great for dunking on Killa too

Easily my favorite gun in the game

[south cobalt]

what are the best colored keycards for profit rn?

[south cobalt]

im so hyped for when i unlock ps12b, wont use anything else

[magic yacht]

For profit yellow and black, for ammo green and red

[south cobalt]

isnt blue worth its price for the stims?

and for black do i go to the actaul back room or the new one + the safe?

[magic yacht]

Not quite, if you check through the windows maybe but im too lazy to do that.
Same for the Black Keycard room, if you can spot a ledx you can open it, otherwise skip and go to the newer room.
Newer room has high chances of bitcoines and sometimes another random keycard, but its more of a gamble than steady profit

[south cobalt]

thanks a lot

[magic yacht]

big issue with the new room on why its a gamble is because you need two uses of black keycard, one for the room and the other for the safe

Its still decent on average but you can get unlucky

yellow in comparison is far cheaper and a more steady profit

[south cobalt]

i mean black is not that expensive, might as well gamble

first time in 6 years of playing tarkov im going labs

[willow tinsel]

welcome back

[gusty whale]

In my experience new black always profits, its just marginal profits vs yellow being 1/5th the cost and making the same amount of money overall

[south cobalt]

i just missed the quest ledx cuz there was a real one on one of the barells and thought its the special one

[willow tinsel]

the red one?

[south cobalt]

yeah

[manic pewter]

30M rubles 🎉

[jade saffron]

found my first one, cultists brought the other 3

[candid quiver]

Its the sound of the shells hitting the ground that just feels right

[south cobalt]

and ofc u have to run it loud

back when ps12b was on flea it was my go to for pvp

absolutely terrifying in dorms

[candid quiver]

Ye but suppressed is also nice cuz idk

Its just a great gun

[marble bronze]

Heresy. That dog must bark.

[willow tinsel]

dont speak of it here

[violet field]

SO NO K THANKS

[willow tinsel]

better delete that msg

[lethal garnet]

it’s not allowed !!

[gilded mesa]

Nobody runs suppressed no? Ts would break the gun faster

Or easier to jam

[orchid loom]

anyone else have tips for finding a forklift key for kappa? just labs?

[raw nest]

duffle bags, scavs etc

[gilded mesa]

I find my forklift on gzero alot more than labs, but alot of ppl dont like gzero so i understand

[alpine elbow]

Hey all. Need a little help. I've got Lightkeepers stupid blue fodlers but the fucker just keeps telling me to go get them. I'm obviously missing/doing something wrong. Any tips?

[south cobalt]

gzero is a terrible "tutorial" map

otherwise its fine

[loud raptor]

I prefer streets over GZ, almost the same thing but way bigger

[south cobalt]

customs is the perfect map

reserve close second

[covert anvil]

omg, NPC magic grenades is still a thing..? with 3 bounces around 2 corners chase and explode precisely under my foot

[sinful marten]

what should i do with locked case/contraband?

[south cobalt]

the story one?

[sinful marten]

Alright they have added latest code

[marble bronze]

No point to run suppressed in PvE

[covert anvil]

Imean.. This not only suppresses the sound, but also suppresses the muzzle flash, which is very noticeable for some guns

[gilded mesa]

did u engage them then they halfway throw or was it out of nowhere

[willow nacelle]

reshala's guards packing new heat

[abstract nymph]

What code is the new one?

[astral kindle]

Kanistra

[distant obsidian]

What does that reference?

[astral kindle]

Dunno, gives 1 fuel can

[covert anvil]

This happened three times this patch. The first time, I wasn't in combat or had visual contact with the PMC, who threw a grenade into the hallway on another floor, and it bounced right at my foot. A lucky throw bruh, I thought. The second time was similar, in the middle of combat, but somewhat suspicious.
This time, the PMC threw an F-1 while still in sight. I ran behind the containers, around two corners, and the whole time I could hear the nade bouncing lol

[distant obsidian]

Yeah, that's all I was able to find on it as well.

Nades be deadly

speaking of fuel. Havent logged in for a bit. Might have to check the hideout

[sage marsh]

real

[distant obsidian]

had 10 fuel in the last can. Perfect timing

[sage marsh]

lmao

im gonna do more silly things in SM2

[distant obsidian]

I watched a couple vids on the powerfist gameplay. Got the general idea

[worn burrow]

If anybody is still looking for partisan rushing to cult bunker on woods and sitting there for 5 or 10 minutes is easiest way I found him

[astral kindle]

Tagilla annoucher is most likely coming also

[raw nest]

Only works if he spawns

[marsh wing]

Yeah i yelled about it yeaterday

[marsh wing]

Btr, traders, tank, and posters from twitch

[worn burrow]

Yes, but there seems to be a bug on customs where he gets stuck under the map I heard, which would make sense because I did around 40-50 customs raids without seeing him and did 4 woods

[distant obsidian]

ahh ok

just found one now

[gentle pulsar]

#screenshots message i must be tripping because i dont recognize these optics

its like the micro-red dot mixed with the romebot

and very.. sqaure..

[gilded mesa]

sounds abit iffy, usually the first thing i do is engage them then pull back 1-2 rooms and waste their nades

when i mean iffy is, inconsistent difficulty with the nades, either its a easy miss or u get kobed by the nade

[marble bronze]

Performs worse, burns more dura. Hard pass

[gilded mesa]

for the no visual contact it takes like a fucking pixel or sound to get spotted which is ouchy

[marble bronze]

Never had a problem, been running loud since before 1.0

[steel imp]

I'm having trouble with the story mission where the Lightkeeper is supposed to ask for the 3 blue folders.
I've already completed all the necessary missions and spoken to all the traders, but the option to hand over the 3 Blue Folders and retrieve the briefcase doesn't appear.
Someone can help me?

[distant obsidian]

did you check the wiki?

[lean quiver]

i think reshala loadouts got updated today or recently. seen an mdr and mpx build i've never seen before. man running mpx with pbp :D i could be wrong tho

[bronze saddle]

you know when an extract has ???? on it? make it so that if we investigate the extract and its closed, make it red so we can see its unreachable like the train exctract for example

[raw nest]

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

[lean quiver]

yea definitely updated

[distant obsidian]

hes had an mdr for ever

[lean quiver]

it's a 556 specific build and according to wiki he only runs 762. also wiki doesn't list mpx.

[distant obsidian]

did you take screen shots?

[lean quiver]

yea i'll post them lmk if they look familiar

[toxic patio]

i literally farm reshala for that MDR beacuse it comes with all the scopes and attachments i want

[lean quiver]

what attachments and scopes?

[sage marsh]

his mdr uses a acog

why would you want that

[lean quiver]

yea nah not acog for me

i'll post em

[toxic patio]

his MDR uses a march tactical 3-24 and a Whirlpool

[distant obsidian]

his mdr has 3 variants lol

none of which have an acog though

[sage marsh]

what mdr am i thinking of then

now i gotta go look

[soft hare]

@distant obsidian why are you not on wiki discord slacker

[distant obsidian]

that mdr is an old build anyways. Log barrel and handguard is the only way with the mdr now

[distant obsidian]

I can only handle 1 community at a time haha
