pve-chat

[charred perch]

At least for me, he keeps runing in the sawmill

[west sigil]

I joke about "scav magic" but Kollontay actually DOES have scav magic.

[charred perch]

taking different covers and shotting me

scav magic?

[austere tapir]

either Sthurman Cracks my damn Skull from over 200 meters or i crack his skull at 101 meters

[west sigil]

He pulls out his baton and that makes your gun jam.

[charred perch]

oooh, I never had this with him

[austere tapir]

thats bullshit

[charred perch]

but always have this fear hahahaha

[valid folio]

sneaky peeky ive damke 😛

[austere tapir]

yeah

[charred perch]

like, for a new player. Bosses are a real dangerous enemie

but after few raids you get used to them and they are just a bulky scav

[west sigil]

provided you have good ammo

[austere tapir]

Also i learned that killa will chase you around Interchange if you shoot him

[west sigil]

Or flesh ammo

[charred perch]

Yeah, but. You don't need reaaaaaally good ammo to kill them

[austere tapir]

no you could use a shotgun and flesh ammo

[vapid cape]

I've seen him do that a few times, the thing with Shturman is he will re-position, he has the mechanics of Reshala but is more deadlier, but if you get too close he will just rush you like Kollonty and hip fire his AK

[charred perch]

they didn't wear level 6 armor for example

[west sigil]

Go fight Tagilla with PRS ammo and tell me how it goes

[austere tapir]

oh god

[charred perch]

you are using the exception to make an argument

except tagilla and killa, every boss dies with any ammo that pens lvl 4 armor

[west sigil]

Go fight him with regular PS, then.

[gentle pulsar]

ill do it if you want

[charred perch]

and you can kill them shotting the legs

[gentle pulsar]

actually ive killed him already with M882 out of a scav uzi, its already posted here if you want me to find it

[west sigil]

You don't have to.

[gentle pulsar]

tagilla is not hard

[charred perch]

with 0pen ammo, I killed tagilla soooooooo many times just dumping a mag on his legs

[austere tapir]

use the m60 gun with ultra nosler full mag

tell me how that goes

and dont aim for the legs

[candid cairn]

Is it two airdrops every map, or is that random? :P

[gentle pulsar]

"run into a wall without a helmet and tell me how it goes"

wtf lmao

[charred perch]

and again, Tagiila and Killa are the exception. All bosses (except them) dies with 37-40pen ammo

[austere tapir]

yep true

[charred perch]

I'm not saying that they are easy. I still die for bosses sometimes.

But after you understood better the game, it's like 9 kills to one death

[austere tapir]

ehhhhh not if you dont see them

tagilla DRILLED ME IN THE HEAD and i didnt see the mf

[gentle pulsar]

nvm

[west sigil]

Happened 2 me recentley

Like, 20 minutes ago actually

[charred perch]

Is what I'm saying. This is the exception
It will happen

but you prob killed tagilla 10 times before this happend

[austere tapir]

yes

[gentle pulsar]

you hear tagilla before you see him

killa is quieter

[austere tapir]

killa will see you and end you in a second

[gentle pulsar]

i dunno about that one lol

aimlessly running around interchange, sure

anyone with a brain can counter him with a well placed headshot

[austere tapir]

I have been in a downfall in tarkov lately

[charred perch]

I feel the bosses are more stupid latelly

few days ago, I rushed into Brutal to finish the Informed Means armed

killa was inside

I had time to leave, take my weapon and kill him

before he start shooting

[marble bronze]

You can get multiple.

[charred perch]

Like, this was REALLY weird

[austere tapir]

i also like to rock the sr25 and semi against killa is a tad diffucuilt

[charred perch]

Have the same feeling with rogues, in the past they would kill me from 200-300m away, now I feel that I can face them without so many problems

[gentle pulsar]

you make up semi auto with high pen

then tap his head

[marble bronze]

M80A1 or better will rock his shit

Or my favorite Anti-Killa weapon... AsH with ps12B

[charred perch]

m4 with m855a1 or better ammo also kill it easy

thanks to the insane firerate

[whole birch]

any1 got tips for return the favor?

[charred perch]

pray

[cursive sky]

Did they push some performance updates or am I capping

Game feels a lot smoother than it did a month ago

Goons first raid back as well, BSG be testing me

[twilit charm]

it feels smoother for me, but i am getting really frequent ram leaks on big maps

[wheat bough]

counter argument... vog-25 gl round

[cobalt depot]

If i upgrade my game from standard edition to prepeare for escape edition do i have to wipe account to get the new shit like beta and stuff?

[reef furnace]

Excuse me but how is it possible to buy aramid inserts from fence??
#screenshots message

[fervent peak]

As with every other 'weird' or 'impossible' item, it's either the game took em apart internally, or cheaters

[final geode]

theres no Cheater this game is perfect anti cheat pleease

hey what's the best Shotgun Ammo for the Double Barrel vs Cultists ?

[magic yacht]

Magnum Buckshot

[manic pewter]

the same as the best shotgun ammo for other shotguns

[final geode]

Riiight I thought the same, or .50 BMG was my plan

[manic pewter]

slugs will just murk them

[final geode]

but since they dont have head protection, Magnum Buckshot should shredd them

[manic pewter]

but buckshot is better as they rarely use faceshields

[final geode]

(if I hit) ((which I usually dont))

duude I been trying to kill Cultists with Cultist Knives for Days while there isnt even that specific Achievment in pve

they survive quite a while I had one beeing poisioned for 10 Minutes and then I had to murder him and run to the extract

[broken fulcrum]

just got Tagilla with a glock 18c AP rounds

[slow rock]

for the Habet hoc habet quest, I'm the online one who can't put the second MS2000 at the minibus on Interchange ?

[charred perch]

I just need to put one

somehow when I accept the quest I already had 1/2 markers put\

[slow rock]

oh I just checked now, after relaunching the game and it's 2/2

[marble bronze]

Siding with Skier? Shaaaaaaaaame.

[slow rock]

i'm doing both for the moment

i want the weapon case

[peak silo]

why this pillagers has aimbot wtf , even guards don't have this

[whole birch]

same ai as shturm guards no?

[cursive sky]

Really didn't miss this stash management, gahdamn

[jade saffron]

same, the wiki also one gives one spot to place the marker so it must be some bug

but I have to say I like the pillagers

[peak silo]

they are probably equal to raiders

[cursive sky]

Really feels like the game got some optimisation

I'm running 32423809 chrome tabs and a gacha game farming on another monitor and I still have great performance in Tarkov

[tacit mesa]

Im so sick of pillagers

[broken fulcrum]

you are not alone

[tacit mesa]

Like fortress are is attrocious if the sr25 one is there

Fucker took both my legs then killed me

Not even the goons do that

[gentle pulsar]

try farming them with transit bonus

was on my 4th transit and got 5.45 head jaws by one first shot

[wet wing]

Every single gun overheats and jams after 3 shots, only on streets tho, any ideas?

[gentle pulsar]

now i always take a face mask when i fight them

[gentle pulsar]

its a really weird known bug

you're not trippin

[wet wing]

this is just straight fucked up

soon my rr gonna jam or sum'

[trim stump]

i wish AI pmc spawned at the locations you have quests to kill them in

like dorms

[tacit mesa]

Guys whats a good bottom to match the boreas top?

[icy rock]

Bait them with flashes

[cinder minnow]

they spawn in dorms

[trim stump]

captureing outposts i swear they dont

[queen frigate]

How do i put that swaggy USEC badge next to my name?

OH SHIT. its already there!

[cinder minnow]

they spawn in dorms

i had 1v12 fight once

[modern elbow]

Who tf selling a ledx to fence 🤣

[final geode]

true heros dont wear capes

[viral ibex]

Has anyone been able to acquire any of the BD gear from fence ? 🫩

[bronze saddle]

accidentally loaded into Streets without a weapon and ammo, ended up killing Kaban and his gooners with OSP gear

[next glade]

Bruh tarkov has been crazy unstable for me lately, 2 full non recoverable freezes, and a ton of small freezes mid raid

[alpine vigil]

aww damn i thought it was real

[cursive sky]

Black, green, docs case and key tool in this dorms marked. Not bad

[west sigil]

shot sanitar in the head and he didn't die
watched the bullet sail clean into his stupid face and he tanked it
what a guy

[cursive sky]

Which bullet though

Has the event ended yet btw

[fallen mason]

Not until the 20th

[cursive sky]

Wasn't it supposed to end on the 15th?

[west sigil]

tbf it was BT
which doesn't do incredible flesh damage

[marble bronze]

It was extended

[west sigil]

But it is certianly interesting shooting a guy in the face in EFT and he just doesn't fall over
I tapped him again and he crumpled

He did have a full surv12 surgical kit on him though, so

hard to be dissapointed with that.

[cursive sky]

Yeah I avoid BT like the plague this late post-launch

[devout skiff]

When the new season for arena coming out ?

[modern elbow]

What do you mostly run?

[cursive sky]

M80A1, BP, CBJ

In the rare ocassions I use 545 then I use BP at a minimum

[young frost]

7n40 master race. bp is crap. cant even one shot kabans snipers lmaao

[cursive sky]

But I do have 10k+ of all ammo I'm using

[fallen mason]

True that

[cursive sky]

M80A1 master race

[young frost]

so trv

[fervent peak]

I am part of the 'use whatever you want' master race

So long as you understand what you're getting yourself into

[modern elbow]

I just kinda use BT a lot cuz you can buy from propor relatively early.

Havent gotten 7n40 from him yet

[candid cairn]

Seems like a bad idea to start from scratch right now with these pillagers :p 2nd time in a row i get insta head eyed

[cursive sky]

Haven't even taken damage from them yet lol

But I've only played 4 raids so far today

[wild frost]

does the streets shopping mall spawn sniper scavs on the roof

so i can probably shoot them around expo extract for light keeper

[fallen mason]

Yes.

[wild frost]

I feel like its not as often as the tower in city center

[fallen mason]

I don't know if they have a spawn percentage, but they're certainly up there any time I go by the mall.

[quartz storm]

quick question for you guys
do you know any good areas to farm fp-100 filter absorbers?
they feel pretty rare and I don't know if I'm just not hitting the right places

[cursive sky]

I get them a lot on Customs

[wild frost]

custom fortress 2nd floor the desk towards flare exfil, sometimes in D2

[fallen mason]

They used to spawn frequently in D2.

[quartz storm]

where in d2?

[cursive sky]

Big crates on Customs and warehouse 7 has historically given me a lot of them

[fallen mason]

The big round hallway with the floor joists you could look down to. The rooms toward the actual extract door.

[wild frost]

literally on the desks

[quartz storm]

I see

[wild frost]

very easy to spot

[fallen mason]

Desks in the command bunker.

Sometimes the broken box when you go down the stairs before the round hallway.

[quartz storm]

alright, thanks

[wild frost]

they are huge, not even \need high level perception to find them

[wheat bough]

question chat i forgot, do i loose rep for killing pillagers as a scav?

[wild frost]

idk if they shoot you if youre 6.0 fence

[shadow mantle]

They do shoot high rep scavs. I'm over 12 and they killed me.
(I refuse to shoot back)

[quartz storm]

they do shoot you at 6.0 fence, no you do not lose rep

[cursive sky]

Goons still on Customs

They ganged up on me with the pillagers lmao

Knight and Big Pipe dead, Birdeye doing god knows what

[odd gale]

They don’t rotate

[alpine vigil]

any of u guys selling the jpc lvl 1 plates on the flea?

[odd gale]

Can’t do that

[cursive sky]

Bleh

300 M80A1 from Big Pipe, don't mind if I do

[icy rock]

It’s 35% spawn on any of the possible maps

[odd gale]

Yep

[sudden sand]

the pillagers are starting to annoy me

[fallen mason]

Annoy them back.

[wild frost]

They only spawn the guns in the arena merchant offers right

Do they have shit like gl launchers or ash12/mcx spear

[misty garnet]

pillagers tanky made me use all my mags then i died to rashala cause no mags

[cursive sky]

Use better ammo

[alpine vigil]

anyone know what armor has the most soft armor hp inside it

[misty garnet]

bp gs is good ammo

[gentle pulsar]

M855A1 and tap fire
one taps them

[wild frost]

lvl 6 polymer ig

[alpine vigil]

is that the greenz huk

[sudden sand]

i just wish the seasonal stuff was optional first its snow and frostbite now pillagers just sucks i dont even play arena so why would i wanna do this

[wild frost]

on the back of the zuhk

[misty garnet]

ive just been running labs dont really care about the event to much

[wild frost]

sometimes on Hexgrid ig

[gentle pulsar]

labs is boring unless you're grinding hideout shit

[misty garnet]

tryna get my money up

im the most poverty stricken person you'll meet ngl

[cursive sky]

Picked up right where I left it 1½ months ago with MCX and CBJ, having zero trouble with pillagers so far

[wild frost]

Iabs gives me claustrophobia smh

[gentle pulsar]

a solid choice too, i respect it

[misty garnet]

lvl 36 still broke

[sudden sand]

i just wanna have a chilled game now this shit has been extended till the 20th

[fervent peak]

Should try labrys instead kekw

[weary ice]

they need to nerf ts raiders

[misty garnet]

cant afford a 10 use dorm marked room key broke

[wild frost]

boring loot, fun map in pvp

pve labrys is poopoo

[cursive sky]

Labrys is such a horror game the first few raids there

[fervent peak]

I still get lost, I only know where the middle is

[alpine vigil]

it has nice money items but so boring

[fervent peak]

Rather sit in labs all day than in labrys

[misty garnet]

been to labyrs 3 times died 3 times

[cursive sky]

Literally anything is nice money in pve as long as you don't die, which you shouldn't, not a lot at least

[sudden sand]

the pillagers suck

[wild frost]

loot or something else

mf shooting poopoo ak bullets

i was hoping bp or pp

[gentle pulsar]

pillagers are only hard if you're using ammo that struggles to headshot them

[astral kindle]

Honestly scariest phillager is one with SVT

[wild frost]

they used to spawn lots of arena scopes

[weary ice]

50% rico chance on the head tho

[gentle pulsar]

i got an RD704 pillager today running BP

[alpine vigil]

ok ive been doing my research and it takes 32 plates zeroed out of jaypc lvl 1 armor to lvl light armor skill 1 level

[misty garnet]

i be shooting pillagers with m993 now just cause i have so much from labs

[sudden sand]

thats what im trying to do was just on customs spawn at big red go across bridge then get gang banged by 4 pillagers

[cursive sky]

85 M995 from Birdeye, noice

Found him ratting in crackhouse

[weary ice]

last time i found pipe with 300 m61 i got slimed out by pillagers and gluhar

[alpine vigil]

how much ammo do u guys stack before u start shooting that specific ammo type

[misty garnet]

im a horader so 500 plus

[gentle pulsar]

i can pretty reliably one tap them, and ive been running 55a1 out of MDR specifically to farm them

[astral kindle]

2 stacks

[sudden sand]

the are shooting lazer beams or something like how the fuck do they see me miles of and straight up lazer me head/eyes

[marble bronze]

At least half a box

[cursive sky]

Hoarder and 500 plus in the same sentence

I have 10k+ in almost every major ammo 💀

[weary ice]

for some reason you shoot the pillagers, boom ricochet but they shoot you with a cqcm and it fucking goes straight through

[wild frost]

its been 3 raids now i see none sniper spawned top of the shopping mall on streets

[sudden sand]

they are so aggressive aswell so i might stop playing till they fuck off

[misty garnet]

yoo where you be getting that shi tell me your secrets

[wild frost]

i just shoot the tower in city center rn usually gives 2-3 kills per raid

[gentle pulsar]

instead of learning to deal with them?? just stop playing?

thats such a terrible way to approach it

you'll never improve

[wild frost]

The snipers on top of the shopping mall doesnt count towards kollontay guards and they are sniper scavs right

[cursive sky]

I cheat by working from home and crafting whatever ammos I don't currently use, buy what you can from traders and a lot of Labs/Streets runs

[sudden sand]

they suck dude i want the seasonal stuff to be optional

[weary ice]

id rather hop off too tbh but i dont think i could do 4 days without tarkov

[fervent peak]

Those guys haven't spawned for quite some time, not sure why

[wild frost]

Counts for sniper scav kill tasks progress

[young frost]

yeaj

[misty garnet]

okay

[misty garnet]

i got a doodoo stash and hideout ngl

[gentle pulsar]

they dont suck, ive been consistently killing them, ive transited like four times killing them plus goons each time

if i can do it you can too, you're just giving up before even learning them

[fervent peak]

Don't try to rush things, you'll always be disappointed, you'll get there when you get there

[gentle pulsar]

plus these guys are unique and probably wont come back for a long time

but sure, just give up

[misty garnet]

im 36 right now i rushed levels

[weary ice]

long time isnt never

[cursive sky]

Having EOD does help

[fervent peak]

And? Just keep playing and getting small victories

[sudden sand]

i just want a option to have this crap or not theres no point learning if they will go soon

[misty garnet]

i have that plus 30 stash lines or so i dont remember

[cursive sky]

I used all my rubels on upgrading my hideout, now that it's maxed I just sit on a hoard

[weary ice]

i cant wait to max my stash

its upgrading to level 3 atm

[misty garnet]

im not even using half my stash

skinny ahh stash i have

[gentle pulsar]

then you'll forever be someone who struggles with ai

cya next event cycle

[wild frost]

this raid shopping mall has no snipers

[fervent peak]

Again, it's been quite a while, those snipers just never spawn

[misty garnet]

pillagers is just scav with better aim

pmc is just better scav

[marble bronze]

Haven't seen them since 1.0 dropped tbh

[weary ice]

and health

[sudden sand]

why and how can they see me miles off it doesnt make sense and they kill me so quick but when i kill and check their ammo they have crap ammo like wtf

[misty garnet]

thats why im a man who preps like hel

[astral kindle]

I've seen those snipers handful of time after 1.0 but havent seen in while

[misty garnet]

i have 10 mags

should i switch to m4 to go thru my ammo i have for it or stick to nl 545 gp

[fervent peak]

Then play night time with NVGs, enemies have less detection radius

Use a thermal and find them first

There are plenty of ways to engage

[cursive sky]

When I took a break they had just released that surpressor balance batch. Is unsupressed the go to now or are there surpressed meta builds again

[sudden sand]

i just dont get it they dont have scopes when i look at them i bearly see them but they can head eyes me from miles off

[gentle pulsar]

they can see you far away yeah but you're still in control of putting cover between you and them

ive died to them too, a few deaths are expected until you better learn how to approach them

i first tried taking them on with 9mm AP 6.3

that was a fucking nightmare

[astral kindle]

Unsuppressed is way to go

[fervent peak]

If you're trying to fight back before finding cover, that's your first mistake

[sudden sand]

no i mean i hear the gun fire then i run and die before i get cover

[fervent peak]

Are you right hand peaking? Throwing grenades?
Using painkillers before going into a zone that may have them?

[gentle pulsar]

letting them t-off on you will result in them just limbing you to death

and after that ONE time they head jaws me with fmj i said fuck that noise and i always wear a face mask now

they honestly give you the armor to deal with them, the korund and a facemask is what i usually wear when transition farming them

[sudden sand]

all im saying is i want to have the opting in or out of these things its not like im playing pvp im playing pve on my own so i want the option

[misty garnet]

the only reason pillagers are scary is cause there tanky ngl 1 tap to the head and you win

[gentle pulsar]

all im saying is that you're facing a challenging, event-only enemy that will be limited time and instead of saying "maybe i should try and actually learn these guys to be a better player overall"

you're just resorting to "no i dont want this give me back normal scavs"

[fervent peak]

You can throw up the suggestion on the tarkov suggestion site. Otherwise, see you next week

[gentle pulsar]

challenging yourself is part of the fun in tarkov

especially in pve

and you're numbifying it

[misty garnet]

i hope they keep pillagers as a mini boss or side boss or have them like goon squad

[candid cairn]

Does the Pillagers always wear the CQCM mask? :D

[misty garnet]

or keep them as a outside boss for interchange

[astral kindle]

Yes

[candid cairn]

Cheers!

[sudden sand]

i play pve to have a chilled game if i wanted to get beamed from miles off id play pvp

[misty garnet]

cause i really enjoy fighting them on interchange

[fallen mason]

Dude then just ignore the areas they spawn. Or go play maps that don't have pillagers.

[gentle pulsar]

pve is chill and if you're having a problem with it then it's most definitely not the game's fault

[fallen mason]

For real.

[fervent peak]

Just leave him, more food for the fishes

[sudden sand]

im saying they are broken they are a little dot to me from being so far and they head eyes me with irons or red dot no scopes how does that make sense

[fervent peak]

Okay, I'ma just say it. You lack game sense.

[cursive sky]

In what way are they broken, haven't had a single encounter with them where they beamed me from Africa

[sudden sand]

how dude

[misty garnet]

pve is not that hard it actually makes me thinking of going back to pvp sometimes but then i remember i dont got the same skill set as the 10k hour guy who kills me every time i go back

[cursive sky]

There's always someone sweatier than oneself

[hearty vapor]

PVE tarkov is like the temu version of tarkov 😂

[fervent peak]

Get ready for this wild ride:

Have you considered avoiding them? Checking their spawns and moving around them appropriately?
Have you always tried to keep hard cover between you and then?
Have you considered bringing a secondary sniper rifle for longer range engagement?
Do you keep painkillers up?
Are you wearing C5 armor?
Have you considered playing other maps without them?

[gentle pulsar]

so you're saying because they have no optic they should be rendered useless beyond a certain distance?
it just sounds like you're letting them shoot you, while not using ammo good enough to really do anything to them

[misty garnet]

i can deal with the new 100 to 1k hour people but the second i fight a someone who has played since the golden era of tarkov i fold

[fervent peak]

Game sense is understanding how the game works around you, and your ability to adapt and overcome situations on the fly.

[gentle pulsar]

pvp tarkov rn is

• everyone is running M80A1 and T5-T6 armor

and i mean everyone

[cursive sky]

Wdym, the game should obviously adapt around my needs

[wild frost]

i finished the 350meter sniper scav kill, feel like the spawn on shopping mall is gone

[fervent peak]

If you refuse to understand the world, I'ma tell you the world doesn't care what you think

[wild frost]

all 10 kills on the center city tower

sometimes they spawn 3 which is good

[gentle pulsar]

"nah i'd rather just opt out of them ever spawning in my raids"

"nah its ok i dont wanna do this event"

[misty garnet]

i know ill never be as good as anyone who plays the game longer then i have

[sudden sand]

i spawn at big red they spawn the other side of the bridge how do i cross without getting beamed

[misty garnet]

run

faster

then the bullets

[fervent peak]

There is a VERY obvious answer to this, let's run this down VERY slowly

[cursive sky]

There's more than one way to cross from Big red

[fervent peak]

Aw PWC ruined it

[cursive sky]

My bad

[fervent peak]

Trying to teach people how to fish here xD

[misty garnet]

bro just shoot back and get an angle or sum tbh

[gentle pulsar]

are you serious? ive crossed that bridge multiple times
do you even bring an optic capable of sniping them from ACROSS the bridge??
do you take cover behind a BUS and lean to get an angle on them?

[fallen mason]

Go across to the far left. Stay down the hill and hug the wall to the road. Sprint across the road and keep sprinting until you're clear.

[misty garnet]

well he has to learn how to fight atleast so maybe a diffrent path

[fervent peak]

Hold up guys, let the guy answer for a sec

[cursive sky]

BURSTING AT THE SEAMS HERE

[misty garnet]

let mullet cook

[hearty vapor]

bro you have been playing tarkov for 40 consecutive days what the fuck 💀

[wild frost]

arn't they the same ai like the clean up crew in Arena Teamfight mode

[misty garnet]

i dont miss a single day of tarkov

[wild frost]

they are alright

[fervent peak]

They're smuggler AI, from what I can gather

[cursive sky]

Mullet ain't too bad of a food fish tbh

[gentle pulsar]

52 streak for me, almost 2 months straight

tarkovs goated bro sorry

esp when you can play all the versions whenever you want

[misty garnet]

a man needs to always keep up on his crafts and cultists and atleast 40 raids a day

[wild frost]

idk my raid streak is bad bc I get tked by lil timmy in this lfg channel often

[hearty vapor]

i wish i was unemployed

[fervent peak]

Oooof

[sudden sand]

well beyond a certain distance they shouldnt be lazering with irons or a red dot sights

[hearty vapor]

they design this shit for the streamers 😂

[misty garnet]

nah im home schooled boy

[cursive sky]

Bruh, he typed for that long to come up with that response?

[fervent peak]

... At this point, someone else can try to help this dude, I think I'm done

[gentle pulsar]

they do, this isnt something unique to tarkov
they would be such an easy kill if you just outranged them with a sniper and they could never ever hit you

[sudden sand]

i was reading dude

[misty garnet]

so i am unemployed tbh

[cursive sky]

My condolences

[misty garnet]

thank you thank you

[cursive sky]

Rough job market no matter where in the world you live in right now

[wild frost]

light keeper cooldown is 10 hr or 12hr

[fervent peak]

10, typically, do 11 just to give breathing room

[misty garnet]

i worked for a guy growing pine trees to sell once

[fervent peak]

Trees are expensive

[misty garnet]

they are fr

[cursive sky]

Got a well educated friend of mine who's been out of work for over a year now, I can imagine that it's really taking it's toll mentally

[misty garnet]

tbh my years is gaming all winter and fishing all summer

[warped imp]

If I wanted to find the most Treasure without keys as a Scav, what map would be best?

[misty garnet]

interchanges

[cursive sky]

You choose your PMC instead and go Labs

[wild frost]

maybe streets

you can find a relax key

[fervent peak]

Depends on your definition of 'treasure'

[cursive sky]

Or Streets

[gentle pulsar]

streets relax room

[misty garnet]

you got a 50 50 chance of getting moonshine from scav camp

[wild frost]

or the rusty bloody key

[misty garnet]

but dont take my word

im the poorest here

[gentle pulsar]

interchange kiba still my favorite room yet i still dont have the keys 🥀

[misty garnet]

cant afford to buy a single 10 use dorm marked room key

[sudden sand]

i dont have this problem from pmc's raiders scavs or rouges just pillagers id be fine with getting killed by pmcs or raiders or rouges because the have scopes and shit but pillagers dont so how the hell are they beaming me from so far away

[astral kindle]

I wouldn't bother buying marked keys, loot is fine yes but you don't get money back with the loot

[misty garnet]

adapt

[sudden sand]

i have one if you wanna go into raid

[gentle pulsar]

adapt to a new challenge

[warped imp]

I will when I learn that place

[misty garnet]

nah i earn my own

[sudden sand]

no worries was just offering

[wild frost]

how do i increase the rate of being spawned near the lighthouse lighthouse

[misty garnet]

rich mf

[gentle pulsar]

fucking pray?

[cursive sky]

[wild frost]

mf sometimes wants me to marathon ts from shoreline extract

[sudden sand]

i have nearly all the keys

[cursive sky]

Make sure you have zero tasks with Lightkeeper

[wild frost]

brutal

[marsh wing]

BP s2 when

[wild frost]

Ive wiped all BP tokens from ref drops

[cursive sky]

Why you love Gingy so much

[wild frost]

waiting for season 2

[marsh wing]

i want to see my s2 cosmetics

[misty garnet]

idk tbh

[cursive sky]

She mid af

And she abandoned us for goop with Peanut

[misty garnet]

did not know it was a twitch person

[wild frost]

didnt she got paid to play the marathon game

or the other peanut guy

[gentle pulsar]

a lot of people did

[misty garnet]

its just free storage

[gentle pulsar]

that fucking marathon game has always made me think of a paintball course

its so stupid lol

[misty garnet]

it is paintball and really easy to llvl up and get loot

[wild frost]

delta force tier game

[misty garnet]

me and my friends got to lvl 60 in 2 days before we went back to tarkov and abi cause we chuds fr

i do not affiliate myself with abi in any way i am forced to play it since my friends somehow die to john scav in pve

[cursive sky]

I played so much ABI last season, this season I couldn't even be bothered

Probably cause of the 3x3 grind which is just a Gamma in Tarkov

[misty garnet]

i still have never gotten kappa a day in my life

[cursive sky]

Just keep playing and you'll get there

[misty garnet]

i have most but 3 or 4 items but i dont got the time or roubles to quest

[gentle pulsar]

let me prestige with difficulty tweaks (no secure container, no flea) in exchange for higher xp and skill gain (if only)

[cursive sky]

I never got kappa before 1.0 cause I just rushed max traders in pvp and went for pvp after that

[wild frost]

doesnt both ABI and delta force have heavy sbmm

like you can penn lvl 6 with rip ammo

if your kda is horrible

[misty garnet]

you can buy the best ammo right off the bat in abi

and dunk on more geared players

[cursive sky]

I hate that in ABI

No wipes sucks

[misty garnet]

plus theres a cap on so if you are 600k koen above the koen cap you cant get into the lower difficulty raids

[jovial cobalt]

they should rename the money in abi from koen to owen

i got 300 owens

[misty garnet]

i got 46m owens last time i checked wich is not that much tbh

some how i can be poor in any game i play

i did a money spread in screenshots

[valid obsidian]

i have 500 sheckles

[misty garnet]

500m or 500

[valid obsidian]

13m

[misty garnet]

yes still the poorest here

11m roubles

should i buy another black keycard or nah

[cursive sky]

217m, and I didn't play for 1½ months

[wet bay]

https://tenor.com/view/levitacion-gif-11682514741978717822

[wild frost]

doesnt tencent looter shooter have sbmm loot type thing

[misty garnet]

i could be rolling in money if i complete to great heights pt3

[wild frost]

they spawn loot only if you search a certain container

[valid obsidian]

i didnt play for 3

[wild frost]

not when the raid starts

[valid obsidian]

GETTTT AA JOBBBB

[cursive sky]

Wdym, I have a job

And no it's not Tarkov

[misty garnet]

i dont have a job and hes richer

[valid obsidian]

factorio is not a job

[misty garnet]

i gotta step up my game ngl

[cursive sky]

Just don't die and the money will start piling up

[valid obsidian]

do you have school

[misty garnet]

yes

home schooled

[valid obsidian]

i did that but i dropped like 1/3s my moolah on hideout

[cursive sky]

My hideout is maxed 💀

[valid obsidian]

and another mil or so on guns

and 338 fmj

and ram

[misty garnet]

im still trying to get my 338 lapua gotta kill shturman 18 more times

[valid obsidian]

or wtv the shturman headshot one is

[misty garnet]

thats the one im doing

[young frost]

just buy one off flea

[misty garnet]

tf

im not the lvl to buy off flea yet

[valid obsidian]

this AXMC will get me through shooter born

[misty garnet]

i have so much ap stacked

[valid obsidian]

you can kill him once with an r700 with a tac30 and unlock axmc

[misty garnet]

i dont have that one

[valid obsidian]

do cultists despawn at day

[valid obsidian]

you get it the same time as the kill shturman 20x

same prereq

[misty garnet]

i dont have that quest

[valid obsidian]

it came free with your xbox

[misty garnet]

i dont own an xbox

[warped imp]

Bruh, why do the scavs get so fucking pissed when I kill the Pillagers? If they shoot at me first, why can't I defend myself?

[misty garnet]

tf

thats how the games suspossed to be

scavs at you

pmcs attack you

bosses to

and the event ai to

[valid obsidian]

YOU HAVE UNOOOO

[marsh wing]

I FINALLY FINISHED THE EVENT QUEST

[valid obsidian]

what level are you

[misty garnet]

36

[glass dawn]

I think its buns to, I have 6.00 rep with fence and pillagers attack me fair enough but when I kill the pillagers the scavs attack my ass

[valid obsidian]

you have access to hunting trip bro

[misty garnet]

well i aint see it ngl

[valid obsidian]

show me the list

[warped imp]

I have a REP of 15 with Fence, the Bosses don't mess with me, and if I kill the Pillagers, it doesn't count against it, but the Scavs get all pissed, and I'm not tanking my REP because of that shit, I just want to get where I need to go and not have the whole lobby pissed at me

[misty garnet]

how about you take a gander

im in pve duo 47

[wild frost]

pmc wont mess with kaban and kollontay and die right

for most cases

[cursive summit]

I do wonder when the next big update is since nikitia said wipe is soon and the updated and stuff, although that was a while ago

[reef furnace]

Probably the 20th

Or the 25th

That's my prediction

[cursive summit]

Aight

[queen frigate]

Has to be Icebreaker surely?

[cursive summit]

I dont think so but who knows

[reef furnace]

I mean if they're extending a slop event to keep people entertained

Probably is

[queen frigate]

I thought i heard end of this month and he did tweet something like "Icebreaker - Soon" or some shit

[reef furnace]

Yeah I saw the same thing in nikita's twitter

[sudden sand]

this event sucks

[queen frigate]

I like the Pillagers, they can actually kill you. its fun

[reef furnace]

Yeah it was kinda cool at first

But now it's just boring since I completed Ref's side quests

[sudden sand]

i wanna have the option of not doing these events

i dont have or play arena fuck ref he sucks and so does this event

[queen frigate]

Sounds like you keep getting smoked by the pillagers lol

[marble bronze]

this event is the most fun i've had in Tarkov all year lol

[queen frigate]

Same

[sudden sand]

like they have irons or red dot sights and beam me from miles off pillagers suck

[reef furnace]

I mean sure the pillagers are cool since they're an actual challenge

But uhhh

I come for the event tasks and the items they bring

Weirdly enough I hadn't gotten the new achievement they supposedly added for this event

[cursive summit]

They do absolutely fuck me up even with those shitty pp19 guns, those small ones with wire stocks

[queen frigate]

Arena can suck my ass thought. Fuck Arena

[reef furnace]

Frfr

I would only play it to level up ref

Since I got like 2000 gps saved

But can't spend them because my ref is only lvl 2

[sudden sand]

all im saying is im playing pve im not playing with anyone i just want the option to have the event enabled or not like i hated the christmas avent with the snow and frost bite now pillgers this sucks i wanna opt in or out for events

[queen frigate]

I honestly don't see the point in using Arena / Ref in PVE. Money and gear is so easy to get

[reef furnace]

The gear ref sells is pretty op wym

Have you seen the champion's mask thingy?

[queen frigate]

Like what?

[reef furnace]

Covers your whole head and let's you use comtacs

It's like a ronin but better

[queen frigate]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Champion's_helmet - this thing?

[reef furnace]

Yep

[queen frigate]

I mean... for PVP for sure but the AI almost never shoots you in the head / face

So its kinda pointless for PVE imo

[cursive summit]

Except for when they do (which for me is alot, so I need mah face protection)

[queen frigate]

I can't remember the last time I died to a HS from PVE mode

[warped imp]

They only ever seem to shoot me in the head area when My back is turned while I find cover, never when I'm head on

[compact carbon]

Is the start of "The Unheard" storyline not spawn on ground zero?

[marble bronze]

what level are you?

[compact carbon]

35

[marble bronze]

should be on the desk behind the locked door then

[queen frigate]

Its in the Office building, you need the key

TerraGroup science office key - OR do the window jump up and go across the ledge

[compact carbon]

Yeah I just ran through and checked it's not there and I haven't started it yet

[queen frigate]

Have you checked Streets?

Theres other spawns

[white steppe]

Would anyone be able to help me with labryths quests I only have 2 key cards

[compact carbon]

Yeah I did a run through with my buddies and didn't spawn at either spawn

[queen frigate]

So you can't find the " Note with ramblings about the Purification" on any of the 3 locations?

2 in streets. 1 in GZ

[compact carbon]

Yep I check terragroup security spawn, office spawn on streets and just did another run on GZ and not there

[queen frigate]

Maybe you already have it and haven't read it? I do that all the time lol

[compact carbon]

Notebook?

[queen frigate]

Yeah

If you don't read all the intel it doesn't trigger. Just picking it up isn't enough.

Maybe you picked it up but didn't read it. thats why its not there

[compact carbon]

I'm just gonna facepalm myself and pretend I didn't have it and found it XD , yeah no I did what you said grabbed it never read it

[queen frigate]

Honestly. don't be ashamed... It happens to me all the time lol

You have to READ EVERTHING. I Always pick it up and not read it

[compact carbon]

Yeah lmao same

[queen frigate]

GL in labs for the next step lol

[sudden sand]

oooooo

[compact carbon]

Lmao yeah that's what I heard is The Unheard is nothing but labs runs

[valid obsidian]

we cant read

[queen frigate]

Its fun fr

[queen frigate]

Fax

[gusty pollen]

who should i give secure folder 0052 to, skier or therapist?

[valid obsidian]

is the AXMC+ short M4 overkill

[astral robin]

Hey peeps. Whats the BEST marked key right now for pve? I got an abandoned factory key and 7 out of 10 times I made 4-5 mill on each run.

[marsh wing]

probably 314

bruh

im on factory as a scav

no pmc's, no tagilla

just scavs

[timid tendon]

why

[marsh wing]

i need 5.0 rep

[timid tendon]

understandable, have a nice day

[marsh wing]

im at like 4.92 and i dont want to run LH for v-ex

[astral robin]

Haven't been there yet. I'll check it out. Thanks!

[serene vigil]

I've got 2x Red, 3x Green, 2x ledx, 4 Bitcoins, RFID, other keycards and 3 Docs cases Out of Just 4 Runs today. Its insane

But PVP though

[astral robin]

Holy shit!! Thats awesome

[astral robin]

Oh....

[serene vigil]

Should be even better then, no?

[astral robin]

Idk how that works. Ill keep u posted. Im gonna buy it and run it soon

[serene vigil]

Aight 🤝

[fervent peak]

Just transit trick it. Run scav, find transit, and keep spamming transits while looking for meds/food when needed

[marsh wing]

eh, im at 4.96 now

and i need like 4 more pmc kills for .05

also the .05 rep from the quest will also give me 2 gpu

#screenshots message

[wild frost]

I think I got 6.0 for turning in that case

[marsh wing]

the armored case?

[wild frost]

before that I spammed car from 0 to 5.0

[pseudo kayak]

anyone look in #screenshots is my savior ending bricked??

[wild frost]

the quest reward for punisher task line

[marsh wing]

ive gotten to this rep by just playing the game

[marsh wing]

oh, yeah, i already did that

[weary ice]

3 prapor rep off max ll then i get to buy couch bags 😭

[pseudo kayak]

anyone know if my savior ending is bricked? 😭

i built the keycard but it redded out the obj??

[wild frost]

@pseudo kayakdo u have the RFID scanner

[pseudo kayak]

yes the one from elektronik??

it says i didnt obtain that either

[wild frost]

ima use screenshot channel rq

that thingy

[wild frost]

do you have it or nah

[pseudo kayak]

yess check screenshots

[wild frost]

there is a recipie that lets you craft the fake card to terminal

[marsh wing]

@fervent peak so keeping the case and handing over the case all lead to the same option. But which one is easier? im assuming keeping the case?

[wild frost]

visit the terminal guards and probably you get the next task

its redded out bc its not on your pmc backpack

as long as you turn in all evidences and collab with kerman your good

[fervent peak]

Keeping the case holds you back from getting Lightkeeper sooner, which you need regardless for two of the four endings

[wild frost]

give the case to prapor

[marsh wing]

so give the case to prapor?

okay

[wild frost]

lvl 15 unlock light keeper

I think I got light keeper at lvl 20 ish

[fervent peak]

Earlier Lightkeeper = earlier time to get lightkeeper rewards, which are all relavent for hideout progression

[timid tendon]

you can unlock lightkeeper one of a few ways iirc, it doesn't depend on the case

[fervent peak]

A lot of his rewards are mil tech items

[marsh wing]

yeah, um, my hideout is maxed. And im level 51

[fervent peak]

At that point do whatever

[wild frost]

whats in that case is just bunch of cash money

[fervent peak]

If you're opening the case, your choice doesn't matter

[timid tendon]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Network_Provider_-_Part_1
requirements section

[marsh wing]

colored card, 2 labs access cards, money, and money items

[fervent peak]

Choosing to give the case to prapor bypasses the requirements for network provider

[timid tendon]

so does progressing batya

[distant obsidian]

so does batya though

[timid tendon]

it's not the only way

[marsh wing]

ill just keep the case then

[distant obsidian]

easier to do that then do more fetch quests to get it back

[fervent peak]

You just have to kill 15 targets on interchange in one raid after a flare anyways

[wild frost]

im still waiting on Trouble in the Big City

unlocks spear but i dont even use them

this game is so scary w ts

[wild frost]

report to the terminal guard post with that temporary card

swipe it and extract

[marsh wing]

damn, this factory scav run had 6 pmc's for me to kill

now to see if i can kill pmc's on factory without killing scavs

[gusty pollen]

WOOOOO just found a marked room key first one

lmao that pay2win code, thats a good one

[pseudo kayak]

wtf my mcx is like randomly missing 90000 rounds all of a sudden, it's like the moa got yoinked

[edgy vale]

For this event, i'm NOT finding any PMC's the last couple days, been running interchance, Customs, Woods, only running into Scavs/pillagers and bosses, anyone know where garunteed PMC spawns are?

[young frost]

gz/factory

[edgy vale]

Honestly haven't even considered GZ since finished the quests, thanks i'll try that!

[carmine lantern]

yea gz is very low risk and will always have a few pmc's roaming around normally by the bank area, around the ramp, that sort of thing

[icy rock]

Idk, I got no idea where to even see that

[distant obsidian]

where do you find any pmc stats?

[cursive summit]

Idk, gotta Google that one

[distant obsidian]

and what is google going to tell you?

[jovial cobalt]

[pseudo kayak]

alr goons on lighthouse are unfair

[distant obsidian]

yeah, worst plave to fight them

not a fan

[pseudo kayak]

there's just NO way that im at sunken house and i get killed from blue chalet/village???

[distant obsidian]

o def

[pseudo kayak]

youre telling me big pipe can just beam me from over 400m away head jaw like wtf 😭

[distant obsidian]

they can come over the rocks and have easy shots

thats not 400m

[pseudo kayak]

it's so genuinely fucked up how far they beam

[distant obsidian]

its like 100-150m at most from rocks to sunken. Not far at all

even thats a stretch

[pseudo kayak]

not rocks

[distant obsidian]

o yeah

you only havea river, street and bank between you

aint far

[pseudo kayak]

oh wait

my bad sunken house mansion whatever

not village

[distant obsidian]

oooo

yeah they can run over. But they cant hit you at chalet

but their asses will come down and cross tha troad quick

[pseudo kayak]

ik damn well i got shot from there

orange tracers straight to my face

so ik it was his spear

[distant obsidian]

with all the open area and ditches its a pain to track them on LH

fmj isnt a tracer

also they will run over to that s bend to get an angle on you

or just cross and rrun down the beach/forest

[pseudo kayak]

m62 im pr sure

[distant obsidian]

prob

[pseudo kayak]

cuz ik damn well ive looted that off big pipe

but i sent in ss

i can promise you that's where i was shot from

[distant obsidian]

yeah I seen

naw

they chased you

[pseudo kayak]

im not overexaggerating, im not going to try and convince you

[distant obsidian]

they ant shooting that far cause they will always run first to close the distance

[pseudo kayak]

but i looked up at chalet and that's where the tracers came from, i saw like 5-6 of em before they head jawed me

[carmine lantern]

typical big pipe w

[distant obsidian]

its just how their ai works. they dont shoot at those distances, they will close the gap

[pseudo kayak]

i wish i had clipped it 😭 i hate having to prove myself

[pseudo kayak]

yeah but i was at the front of the sunken mansion thingy whatever

that's well over 200m

[distant obsidian]

i mean if your at the house, draw I direct line to lower chalet and there are mounds close by that will give them an angle that seems like they are from lower

but reality in the forest on a high mound beside house

[pseudo kayak]

also does mcx just have horrible moa

[distant obsidian]

moa isnt a thing for ai

and be glad they dont lol

[carmine lantern]

I havent found that the mcx has issues with missing shots, from the player pov

[distant obsidian]

its an smg

your not hitting shots past 100m reliably with an mcx lol

[pseudo kayak]

no for me

[distant obsidian]

or well 150 prob

[pseudo kayak]

alr figures, i tried to make it work

[jovial cobalt]

mcx is lower velocity i can feel it in arena even at close ranges

[distant obsidian]

mhm

its slow

[jovial cobalt]

me too

[distant obsidian]

same

[pseudo kayak]

yeah i was tryna pick at bots in lighthouse from like 300m

ig there's my mistake

[carmine lantern]

yea id go with the as val for that sort of stuff

[manic pewter]

stop giving bad advice

the STM with its standard sights is a much better option

[jovial cobalt]

makarov is the best gun

especially when the ironsights dont even line up while you are strafing so its impossible to hit accurate ads while moving

[safe kestrel]

Just use AK-50

it's only take one bullet

[manic pewter]

terrible, too heavy

[safe kestrel]

weakness disgust me

[marble bronze]

wym, it weighs nothing.

[manic pewter]

no, i dont believe in elite strength :)

[marble bronze]

well elite strength believes in you

[manic pewter]

myth perpetuated by Big Skill to get more gym users

go to character at bottom, hit overall top left and scroll down under ur kd

[distant obsidian]

lol

[orchid ether]

lmao

[past girder]

I'm not even going to dignify that

[weary ice]

tagillas fucking terrifying

[carmine lantern]

sometimes he is so low aggro but other times he either sneaks up on you or just goes insane

probably one of my favorite bosses though overall

no guards, no special areas or arenas

[weary ice]

one time i was with my friend and he just ran up behind us, pulled his hammer out, put it back away, runs away and snipes me with his shotgun

[spare prairie]

spray his face zero his mask out fast easy kill

i farm him for plates probably kill him 10-20 times a day hes very easy once u find the right gun for the job i prefer mp9 like 5-10 shots quick little burst hes dead

[past girder]

Ash-12 with PS12B my beloved

[weary ice]

the only problem is that whenever he runs sideways

[toxic fractal]

Looking for anyone to do quests with I’m kinda new I have about 200 hours

[weary ice]

i cant shoot moving targets for whatever reason

fine in any other game

[spare prairie]

try an drag him to offices an jump out the first floor window you can just peak an he'll sit in the first floor as an easy kill

[weary ice]

https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/1242615524228337814

[spare prairie]

or go in the room on 3rd floor that you can kick open hell rush up to it but nothing ever enters the room just open an close the door killing things

[odd gale]

For plates I just run kiba

2-3 t6 per raid

[weary ice]

gac is the best tbh

[spare prairie]

Killa hates me an runs my ass down any time i enter the mall lol

[odd gale]

Eh M80 does the job

[weary ice]

rare to see any pmc or raider have level 5+ ammo

[weary ice]

i just run ssa ap i got like 5k form labs

[odd gale]

I dislike ssa ap

Nicee

[odd gale]

I mean eft

Pve is very chill

[past girder]

wait wot

[odd gale]

Yeah eft chat was heated earlier

[weary ice]

what happened

[odd gale]

They were talking about how they hated pve

And it should be deleted

[past girder]

Oh, the usual talks

[odd gale]

Ye but they were getting pissy

[weary ice]

lmao

[past girder]

They always do

[weary ice]

mad over other people having fun

[past girder]

But we're just chilling enjoying the game

[weary ice]

sounds like cool people to be around

[dark zealot]

Yea classic

Weird how obsessively some people hate pve

[odd gale]

It's hella weird

[stiff scaffold]

deleting pve would nuke BSG's sales

and bsg are money hungry

[past girder]

one of my irl friends was spectating me playing pve, saying how he hated it, but as he kept watching and saw how much fun I had, said he's happy to actually see someone enjoying the game and he started saying it's good to drive new people in

[weary ice]

i feel like theyre mad because they cant afford it

[odd gale]

Nuking is to far tho

[distant obsidian]

how? lol. its already boughtr

[stiff scaffold]

no more new players

[distant obsidian]

i mean pve is not the major income earner though

[weary ice]

tarkov os the only extraction shooter ill ever play on pc because it has pve

[past girder]

GZW has pve now too

[weary ice]

oh damn ill have to give it a go

[past girder]

The Forever Winter is also PVE

[weary ice]

i wish abi had pve that games fun as

[stiff scaffold]

it has more players than pvp for sure, but yeah it all started with pvp

[distant obsidian]

no it doesnt lol. Its only ever been close at the end of a dead wipe

[dark zealot]

I take nap.

Ping me when someone needs cat photos

[odd gale]

Okay

[distant obsidian]

sorry but pvp is still a much larger playerbase

[odd gale]

Sleep well

[stiff scaffold]

[spare prairie]

Cat photos you say 😏 send them 😄

[weary ice]

whens bunker cat

[past girder]

iirc, Nikita posted something way back when, saying that PVP still has majority of players, however he is surprised at the popularity of PVE

[weary ice]

tabor had bunker cat before tarkov ever did 😭

[odd gale]

Tabor sucks

[weary ice]

well fuck you then

[pseudo kayak]

@distant obsidian i was tryna cope saying that the mcx worked great for me in customs and labs but those are close range 💀

[distant obsidian]

yes lol

[weary ice]

they are adding a flea market which might make me return but it does kind of suck

[distant obsidian]

never heard of tabor, probably sucks

[weary ice]

its pretty much the same but in vr

[odd gale]

Vr tarkov

[distant obsidian]

o so it sucks yeah

[weary ice]

i have more experience in that game then tarkov

[weary ice]

its well optimized 😏

[pseudo kayak]

time to try it again !!!!

[distant obsidian]

because people even know what optimized means anymore

its just another slop word people throw around nowadays

[weary ice]

are you wearing a tin foil hat rn

[distant obsidian]

define optimized

[weary ice]

define? i dont have that type of autism

[distant obsidian]

my point stands

[pseudo kayak]

tinfoil hat time, bless my mcx please

[spare prairie]

👏🏻

[weary ice]

i can explain it?

[distant obsidian]

[weary ice]

idk the fucking definition

[distant obsidian]

then dont say words you dont understand lol

words have meaning.

[pseudo kayak]

foid chud goycell optimization

[odd gale]

I love the mcx

[pseudo kayak]

mcx twins!!!!1111

[distant obsidian]

fair, a lot of people do

I am not a fan myself

[pseudo kayak]

cbj is so hot

[odd gale]

cbj feels so good

[pseudo kayak]

the mcx also looks sexy

[odd gale]

It sounds amazing loud

[pseudo kayak]

i love my cf handguard >///<

[weary ice]

mcx with the carbon fibre handguard auughj

[odd gale]

My only complaint is it follows the m4 platform and it's issues

When zooming in

[pseudo kayak]

Im gonna outsnipe the goons w this surely!!!

if there's any gun i love it's the tx15 tho

[carmine lantern]

im a big fan of the mcx

[odd gale]

If I go single fire I always go 7.62x51

Or .338

[weary ice]

ak12 with the rrd muzzle sounds like a lmg its so cool

[carmine lantern]

ak 308 is one of my favorites overall

[odd gale]

Yeah same I just hate how gutted it is rn

[distant obsidian]

I jsut use a sr25

its just better

[carmine lantern]

feels like you're bullying someone like tagilla in labrys using it w m993

im very inaccurate so I just spray+pray

[weary ice]

mp7 is my favourite but the durability burns so fast

u gotta switch it out every 5 raids

[carmine lantern]

water cooled mp7

[odd gale]

Mp7 feels so good

Same with the mod4

[weary ice]

water cooled barrel needs to be a thing for all guns

[weary ice]

sr3m too

[gentle pulsar]

whats killas spawn chance

[weary ice]

all bosses 75%

[distant obsidian]

I dont see the appeal of smgs

[weary ice]

goons 30%

[carmine lantern]

100% when you dont want them to show, 50/50 if you do

[whole birch]

any reason to keep epsilon, i should do "the choice" right?

[pseudo kayak]

100 round uzi meta !!!!

[stable tinsel]

Absolutely love the P90 just hate how long it takes to load the mags

[pseudo kayak]

mannequin drip

[gentle pulsar]

smgs are fun in pve, in pvp they're next to useless because pbp is outclassed by med-tier ammo in other categories

like pump shotguns, i plan on killing each boss with one of the pump shotguns just because i find it fun

[spare prairie]

Look up Eftboss tracker on google it has all there spawn rates killa is at 75% rn

[pseudo kayak]

idek why i like the tx15 lol it's 5.56 single fire

[gentle pulsar]

nothing wrong with that tho

the tx15 carried me through shoreline peacekeeper quests when i used 20rnders SSA AP in it

in pvp long time back

so i love it and its little brother, the ADAR

[carmine lantern]

if you like a gun, you like a gun, meta in pve is pointless so I just use whatever unless im with friends and want to be 'serious'

[abstract sleet]

Anyone else taking ~5 mins to get back to hideout after a raid? Just started happening to me yesterday. Cache/logs cleared and did an integrity check. Every raid, local or not, solo or group, takes me about 5 or more mins to load back to stash.

[carmine lantern]

ive been getting every gun up to lvl 3 mastery which has been good for me to experiment

[carmine lantern]

yes that has happened to me several times the past few days, ive just accepted it by now

[gentle pulsar]

i agree, and i think one of the bigges things people sleep on is actually making use of ironsights just for fun

[spare prairie]

yea its been longer recently

[gentle pulsar]

the AK V2 irons are one of the most friendly imo

but i really dont know anyone whos willingly used irons just because they can

ofc the game is boring when you slap a LPVO and SE-5 onto every build..

[distant obsidian]

nope

[stable tinsel]

The M16 iron sights are kinda good too

[carmine lantern]

my eyesight is shot after like 5 meters so I almost always use magnification

[west sigil]

They are quite nice.

M4/M16 irons are generally pretty good

AK irons... uh, not for me.

[gentle pulsar]

have you guys ever seen the AK V2 irons?

[marsh wing]

BP s2 tomorrow, surely

[stable tinsel]

I got the post fx where the clarity is maxed out and the brightness is at 10. Makes the game a lot easier to see
