[rotund talon]

as always tbh

[candid quiver]

i just dont get why they make the AI for event enemies more cracked than like raiders or rogues or even the goons

[raw nest]

Testing waters maybe?

[fair dawn]

i mean.... they arent that bad lol

[rotund talon]

but they are not easy

[fair dawn]

Depends on the person

[rotund talon]

and add the ammount

the factory is real clusterfuck now

[fair dawn]

im literaly wiping factory going in naked witha kedr and 2 30rnd mags

jsut looting the first cleaner and i can and snowballing from there

[rotund talon]

thats good that u are not being hit im not so lucky

[fair dawn]

i am using hard cover to limit the possibility of getting hit

[rotund talon]

fr? woah

[toxic patio]

just let them push you

[fair dawn]

and ive burned through almost 4 grizzleys in the past 2 hours. im for sure getting hit lol

[livid oxide]

this partisan bag is drip ngl

[toxic patio]

they might have better aim and bullets but they're still scavs

[fair dawn]

This right here 🙂

[rotund talon]

they never push me

with is weird

they hide in corners for me and try to ambush me

[outer juniper]

yo the flear workt befor but it dont any more

[fair dawn]

how FLIR no work now?

[raw nest]

?

[outer juniper]

to make the scavs chill you know not get agro

[candid quiver]

yeah idk about "they are still scavs" they have better aim than raiders, same as the pillagers or smugglers did

and better gear aswell, so kind of a nothing burger

[raw nest]

That's what you are looking for or https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/26x75mm_flare_cartridge_(Acid_Green)

[onyx dagger]

Does the event mean that killa isn't spawning on interchange? 4 raids in a row where i couldn't find him

[outer juniper]

yeah i know

[raw nest]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/FLIR_RS-32_2.25-9x_35mm_60Hz_thermal_riflescope

FLIR is a thermal scope nothing more

[outer juniper]

i never write FLIR

[acoustic field]

Nah I'm actually getting FPS drops on Factory

[fair dawn]

And what are we to assume you mean other than FLIR?

[raw nest]

Then have to be more specific for Flear.

[toxic patio]

i never need to even go to the bosses for this event i'm full on loot long before

[west mist]

flare?

the other word that could be a typo

[raw nest]

Here

[fair dawn]

That is fair

[acoustic field]

The ammo from the cleanup crew is NUTS

[outer juniper]

sorry mb

[livid oxide]

like what?

[toxic patio]

but don't listen to the guy saying naked kedr is the way

it is not

sitting on a cheese strat is not fun and it's lowkey dependant on spawns

[acoustic field]

I found M61's (I think that's the one, the high pen 308)

Also just, AP ammo everywere

[fair dawn]

I never said it is the way lol

i just said that is what im doing and having fun with it

[toxic patio]

well you're supposed to use the klin, dummy

[fair dawn]

But thank you Cat 🙂

ill pull the DB shotgun out - dont tempt me

[toxic patio]

oh it works

but like for the love of god, take a t3 vest

[onyx dagger]

Can anyone confirm if they've seen Killa on Interchange since the event started?

[fair dawn]

No vest at all

[candid quiver]

T4 is the absolute minimum to take

[toxic patio]

no, t3 works fine

you only need damage reduction

[raw nest]

Paca supremacy

[toxic patio]

paca also works it's really just to not get oneshot

[thorn kettle]

??event

[quasi apex]

Killa and Tagilla are 100%, along with their clean up crew on Factory!
Player scavs are temporarily restricted from the Factory location.

[toxic patio]

just don't get seen first

[glossy bloom]

First time getting killa on factory, gives me vida helmet

[toxic patio]

they seem to be able to shoot through walls what the fuck is that

[glossy hound]

ai definitely has wallhacks again

was playing with my brother, he aggroed a squad of the cleanup crew and i watched them track him through the floor as they went down the stairs

[candid quiver]

yeah

this event aint it

but the ai beaing able to put out 3 rounds even tho it appears as if they only shot once is just

classic

[rapid urchin]

good for exp ig

[carmine lantern]

ya the event is great for xp

I like it a lot

20-40k xp a raid

[toxic patio]

the event is best with a squad

but really only then so you can loot in peace

[pseudo kayak]

w a squad is for giggles

but my friend keeps crashing as soon as he loads in

oh wait nvm

he just dcs

[rapid urchin]

sadly i cant solo it bc im dogshit at the game

[pseudo kayak]

shitternet

[rapid urchin]

my aim and reaction time isnt good enough

[pseudo kayak]

you'll get better trust

[distant helm]

did they nerf marked rooms and keycards? ive been getting absolute ass lately

[pseudo kayak]

any s6s?

[toxic patio]

soling this event is soley dependant on sitting still with lots of ammo

[rapid urchin]

idk what to run in with either i just run into a glock19 and hope for the best

[pseudo kayak]

what is it w wuwa players hoppin on tarkov

[rapid urchin]

any what now? sorry im kinda like new to the game since 2 weeks ago

[thorny moss]

Anyone having issues inviting friends in PvE?

[pseudo kayak]

s6s in wuwa

[rapid urchin]

ohh i see

sadly no 😭

praying i can get hiyuki s6

[toxic patio]

go from dogshit to dogshit

gacha games are so unimaginably mid

[fervent peak]

me who's played genshin for 2 years

[pseudo kayak]

i like my souls type game wtf

[toxic patio]

star rail for 3 and genshin for 4

[pseudo kayak]

hitless at 2 hp is fun

[toxic patio]

and wuwa, and endfield, and arknights

[fervent peak]

I moved to Arknights Endfield now

[toxic patio]

i have played them all and i have determined they suck nuts

[pseudo kayak]

i'm a danjin main i make my fun

[toxic patio]

how are you enjoying the nonexistent pull economy

[fervent peak]

Genshin was just... boring now, they've made no innovations for animations for in game cutscenes

[raw nest]

[fervent peak]

I usually just get one copy, but somehow I've ended up with P1 for most of my 6*'s

[rapid urchin]

interesting

[sterile flower]

what best way (safe) to farm killa and tagilla on factory now?

[fervent peak]

P1 Yvonne, P1 Fangyi, P1 Gilberta, P1 Rossi, like I never asked for them

[toxic patio]

don't worry guys, the event is ass though

oh you killed a guy with 60 roudners? expect like.. fmj

[fervent peak]

I just wanted one lmao

[pseudo kayak]

but regardless trust me

just keep running solo, insurance is 100% for a reason in pve

[rapid urchin]

true, any gun/gear suggestions? glock aint rlly cutting it anymore

[pseudo kayak]

Phrolova my goat

[rapid urchin]

usually i just sit in the bathroom and hide

[pseudo kayak]

[fervent peak]

Losing good ammo is annoying though, I'll probably run 5a1 for Factory

[pseudo kayak]

uhhhhh

[rapid urchin]

[pseudo kayak]

what weapon did i use a lot when starting

idk whatever you pick up really 💀

[toxic patio]

i run 6a1 lmao

[pseudo kayak]

this wipe I rode the mcx till it went flat

[pseudo kayak]

TRUE ME 3 cheapskates 4ever

I run ps and pp 7.62x39 and it works so idec

[raw nest]

I've been running 855a1

[rapid urchin]

the mcx is nice sadly i only have the whisper round for now

[carmine lantern]

4 minute raid for 18k xp is pretty sick

[glossy bloom]

I just sorta sat in gate 3, some clean up crew guys came to find me, and I pissed off killa first, and he died to some PP rounds out my RPDN, Tagilla almost got me though, didn't realize my front plate was toast til I started looting and checking armors

[toxic patio]

don't say nice mcx near tyreall

[fervent peak]

I'm deeply considering RPDn for lolz

[toxic patio]

he'll foam at the lips

[rapid urchin]

ikr 😭

[toxic patio]

RPD is worth it

they don't aim head either, btw

[glossy bloom]

tis a good option

[toxic patio]

just take a full kit armor, trust

[raw nest]

@distant obsidian something for you

[sterile flower]

does clean up crew push you or they mind their busines

[carmine lantern]

if the crew has a 2nd gun it will be 100% dura so ive gotten a few free mcx's from it

[raw nest]

[rapid urchin]

sometimes they push

if they really feel like it

[carmine lantern]

if you kill a member of their group they will normally push

since they seem to normally spawn in groups

[glossy bloom]

they needed some encouragement, fired a few shots to get attention
maybe a nade out the door

[pseudo kayak]

the free 30 rounders of .300 AP

[toxic patio]

easiest way is just to run around the offices and the skybridge

[pseudo kayak]

mmmm so yummy

[distant obsidian]

ive been watching

[pseudo kayak]

idk nobody has tried what wroekd for me

[fervent peak]

Think it's even easier just to loot mags and unpack in stash

[rapid urchin]

[toxic patio]

real talk kame yvone is why i quit the game

[pseudo kayak]

i keep emphasizing just w key factory rn and it works

[toxic patio]

i lost to her on gilberta and lowk i do nto need a softcore lewd for a unit

[pseudo kayak]

if you want an "easy" time, run 7.62x39

easy ammo to come across, hits hard early

[rapid urchin]

i see

ty

[fervent peak]

Ooof is all I can say, I have been enjoying the playstyles, but content leaves something to be desired

[sterile flower]

im kinda thinking of getting into gate3/med tent gate with key and just wait xD

[toxic patio]

yeah lack of endgame, really no substance to exploration

[rapid urchin]

i was lucky enough to get an rsass out of the raid

[toxic patio]

and it's a lot of grind for very little reward

[fervent peak]

Factory is nice tho, just wish we could get better belts xD

Factorio/Satisfactory nerd here

[toxic patio]

love factory, hate the lack of proper mergers and no inserters

please god just give me inserters

proper off belt inserters

[fervent peak]

Some mergers would be GREAT

[carmine lantern]

im out of the gacha world for now

waiting for tarkov mobile

[pseudo kayak]

now that i mentioned it tho I just HAVE to show in dms

[fervent peak]

I do my utmost to stay to only one gacha at a time, if any. It was Brave Exvius FF, Epic Seven, to Genshin, to Endfield

[pseudo kayak]

Wuwa has been my main so far

[rapid urchin]

lets see it

[pseudo kayak]

dude losing brave frontier and brave exvius SUCKED

stupid gumi

[carmine lantern]

wuwu

[pseudo kayak]

stupid niche games

[fervent peak]

Gumi is stupid scummy

[pseudo kayak]

I lowkey wish I hated BF and BEFF

so I wouldn't be eternally chasing that stupid playstyle

[fervent peak]

Regardless, I appreciate Endfield play, since all your members are on the field, instead of the swap out styles most gacha's do

Just feels so much more damn alive

[carmine lantern]

endfield is sick, ive been an arknights enjoyer since arknights came out, just tired of rolling

wish there were more hideout mechanics and stuff in tarkov so you'd interact with it more

[fervent peak]

More for skills, I'd like. Not just the gym

Once the gym is done, at least make it so it levels health REALLY slowly.

[toxic patio]

yeah this event is ass

[fervent peak]

Or Vitality

[toxic patio]

why are events like this half the time, it just turns a random part of the map into a super high threat area

sometimes very rarely we get good quests and or unique loot, otherwise it's just a middle finger to the normal gameplay loop

[distant obsidian]

because of the community vote

[toxic patio]

damn pvp players voting for what they would enjoy

[distant obsidian]

or survey

[carmine lantern]

its a lot easier to make these types of mini events as well, its only for like 4 days

plus this event is great for xp

just go in, kill like 6-8, extract, you get 20k xp for like 4 minutes

[toxic patio]

it's not very good for my sanity

swear the ai is really tweaked out, they refuse to push

[lofty karma]

this is why you carry 2-4 grenades

so you can flush them out and force them to push

[carmine lantern]

they are annoying for sure, but at least its 'just' on factory

[toxic patio]

they don't push, even with nades, tbh

it'll just shove them further back

[carmine lantern]

thats when you push into them as they're repositioning

[pseudo kayak]

I love this mini event

[pseudo kayak]

FINALLY

JUST W KEY THEM

I keep seeing "hold this angle, that angle, fuck this angle"

JUST PUSH THEM

[toxic patio]

and die? no

i will sit on my ass or go the long way around

[pseudo kayak]

that is NOT what happens

[lofty karma]

I just spam peek them with quick shots until they die

[pseudo kayak]

omg I really am gonna have to stream to show what happens huh

[lofty karma]

if I have a big mag gun I'll just do the "hold the gun around the corner" bind and shoot them

[toxic patio]

all i've been doin is just waiting and it works pretty well

[pseudo kayak]

I took in a vector and DIDN'T EVEN MOVE IT OFF SINGLE FIRE, ofc I had to spam at times but the whole point was I wasn't sitting in an area, I constantly moved up while pinging them

Idk how to set up a stream

I could just clip a run

[distant obsidian]

W key wins

[pseudo kayak]

ty 😭

literally my pmc

[raw nest]

[lofty karma]

I have to find skiers stupid wallet for kappa...

god damnit

[distant obsidian]

[lofty karma]

I went on hiatus and forgot how tedious these last few quests are

[livid oxide]

yea guaranteed

[lofty karma]

Its just annoying

Not really hard

[pseudo kayak]

blueberry quest was annoying

[carmine lantern]

tedium is the name of the game sometimes

[pseudo kayak]

I just didn't wanna go everywhere

[distant obsidian]

its annoying?

its just go grab a wallet and finish the raid

literally just like looting 1 item

[pseudo kayak]

ur the name of the game

Rellinou from Tarkov

[carmine lantern]

john tarkov

[pseudo kayak]

im hungry

[distant obsidian]

im eating

[toxic patio]

why are there two rellinous

[lofty karma]

its only annoying because Im trying to go to the other maps for the other quests/last storyline quest I need to finish

I gotta go out of my way for 10 minutes to do this...

[fervent peak]

one of them is Niami

[pseudo kayak]

um

[fervent peak]

As for why? iunno, e-couple stuff? /shrug

[pseudo kayak]

bc i'm rellinou?

[lofty karma]

I dont even have anything on customs to do anymore

[pseudo kayak]

[pseudo kayak]

I truly am an amalgamation of everything

gdi

[lavish grotto]

I can confirm my uncle works at epic games

[pseudo kayak]

ty for saving me from Rellichud

[mellow oyster]

Jeez after thousand of hours I finally encountered my first cultist "Sektant"... Man are they resiliant.... I am pretty sure I landed 2 hits with M855 on the head and he was still charging me with the knife

[distant obsidian]

50 head hp so you didnt land 2

[toxic patio]

oh hey they turned the hideout into a lagfest again

guess i'm ignoring that mechanic

[mellow oyster]

Well possible just looked like it because of the bloodd cloud or something

[toxic patio]

they should try not rendering every atom of the fan blades in the bitcoin farm

[mellow oyster]

and because I was kind of panicking

[pseudo kayak]

they did?

I don't recall it being bad

[distant obsidian]

my hideout is fine

[toxic patio]

game's a lagfest in general rn

i'm getting like sixteen frames on factory because of the event

[distant obsidian]

game seems fine

[toxic patio]

i am [playing lookign at floor

[lofty karma]

it should be fine

[toxic patio]

because there's 20 cleanup crew standing on top of eachother in the center of factory

[lofty karma]

your hideout might just be bugged lol

[distant obsidian]

im gettting my 120 capped fps in hideout just fine

[pseudo kayak]

this sounds like the ram leak issue I got hit with my first time buying the game

[lofty karma]

idk if they fixed the hideout loading the wrong map and just loading factory or customs instead of your actual hideout

lmao

[fervent peak]

Ready for the meat grinder tonight on factory? kekw

[distant obsidian]

never heard of that

[distant obsidian]

yeah, I went out partying last night so its a slow sat for me

[lofty karma]

I think it was an old bug that happened on 1.0 launch but I never saw it again after the one reddit post

[pseudo kayak]

factory xp farm is so hot

nothing will ever beat the feeling of the cultist event for me tho

[distant obsidian]

sounds fake then honestly

[weary ice]

hi rell

[lofty karma]

probably was

[pseudo kayak]

yo

[mellow oyster]

Btw any way to fix the Handbook? Even when I look at all the new stuff I occassionally find It still says that I have 18 new things

[lofty karma]

but then again after all the bugs we've seen

it might just be super rare

[pseudo kayak]

no there isn't

just keep clicking the green square when it pops up

it makes all of them go away

[raw nest]

ignore

[pseudo kayak]

idk who told me that but theyre goated

[distant obsidian]

probably me

[pseudo kayak]

probs

I get so happy loading into interchange

one of my favorite maps now

[mellow oyster]

The red skull on factory... Does this only affect Tequila or alos the cultists?

[pseudo kayak]

tagussy event only impacts daytime factory

nighttime is unchanged

[mellow oyster]

ahh okay

cause I still need to be stabbed by a poison knife at some point for the Task "Immunity"

[pseudo kayak]

you can just load in w someone in lfg and they'll help rq

[distant obsidian]

#eft-announcements

[weary ice]

so tagilla still spawns on nightime or no

[distant obsidian]

does it say he doesnt?

[pseudo kayak]

he can

nighttime is normal

interchange is normal

they're in multiple spots at once

[jovial cobalt]

wizardry

[livid oxide]

thought there was an achievement for killing a cultist with the rpg. guess not.

[fallen mason]

On PvP.

[jovial cobalt]

its for pvp only i think

[livid oxide]

Nikita hates us

[raw nest]

Not available on pve

[ionic barn]

Best olace to get MREs for humanitarian supplies?

[lavish grotto]

flee market

[pseudo kayak]

someone has to explain customs to someone who is scared of customs

[ionic barn]

Oh no way they ain’t in raids??

Fuck me

[lavish grotto]

yeah they don’t need to be found in raid

[ionic barn]

Ty been wasting time hunting for em😭

[distant obsidian]

they are, just easier to buy them

[rough lotus]

I'm having a great time playing. Does anyone else feel like Tarkov runs smoothly in PvE?

[median frigate]

Dont go anywhere between fortess and crackhouse, dont approach new gas from dorms / bridge side and you will be fine most of the time

[lime mauve]

You can craft them. They will be fir

[pseudo kayak]

@rapid urchin

[pseudo kayak]

pssst tyreall

between the avs/ana tac m1/NEW fort gladiator - would you say the glad takes the cake

[delicate swan]

if someone is scared of customs... i dont want them to know what Reserve is light lol

[distant obsidian]

the fort that is only chest and neck yes

[rapid urchin]

ty ty

[pseudo kayak]

we are talking about the same one right

the armored rig

viking chud

[lime mauve]

Reserve has got real easy for me since I started running to dome to snipe glukhar before I hit my marked keys

[carmine lantern]

the fart gladiator

[distant obsidian]

no

[lime mauve]

The only problem is when he doesn't aggro ai pmcs enough to leave buildings if he spawns inside

[distant obsidian]

the armor

the armoed rig that has 12 slots is ass

[velvet quest]

havent been on for several months. Whats new or exciting?

[carmine lantern]

??event

[quasi apex]

Killa and Tagilla are 100%, along with their clean up crew on Factory!
Player scavs are temporarily restricted from the Factory location.

[distant obsidian]

go read some patch notes from the website. Lots

[delicate swan]

Fort gladiator armor aka the battlepass 90-100 armor if memory serves. 12 slots 4-4-4-4-4 vertical slots. Its decent if your running with the Full Auto Saiga 12 shotgun its supposed to be paired with (level 100 battlepass).

The whole thing is gimmicked around Tagilla theme.

its pretty damn durable but since you cannot have other slots... its not worth it.

now if we could say.... use Tagillas sledge, maybe be worth it lol

[viral frost]

how are yall not wiping the factory lobby first try lol

[lofty warren]

Yes

[lofty warren]

Haven't gotten there so ez

[jovial cobalt]

bully @marsh wing to fight the cleanup crew hes being a scaredy cat

[delicate swan]

@viral frost people sometimes dont play smart and just play it COD style? idk

[distant obsidian]

@marsh wing go to factory, Bosh will only kill you like 2 more times

[viral frost]

just killed all the crew but one plus the boys

[distant obsidian]

k?

[pseudo kayak]

I ordered breakfast

[rapid urchin]

[marsh wing]

i just finished my run

[pseudo kayak]

@carmine lantern breakfast rn is peak

[pseudo kayak]

french toast, scrambled eggs, bacon :3

[jovial cobalt]

[marsh wing]

16 kills, 1 tagilla and 14 clean up crew. Got 1 shot to the neck by m61

[distant obsidian]

[rapid urchin]

peak,

[pseudo kayak]

nono the viking one is the one that has 20, looks like the redut

[jovial cobalt]

he got the insurance back so he can't be mad at me now

[distant obsidian]

true

[pseudo kayak]

im eating breakfast at 1600 😭

[marsh wing]

im not running factory AGAIN. Im gonna go do tasks instead of torturing myself

[carmine lantern]

top tier breakfast food tbh

[distant obsidian]

i mean all the other forts are decent. I thinmk they look like ass though

[jovial cobalt]

you also don really need the xp since you at 51 already

[marsh wing]

duh

made me fail escort again

and i only had like 4 maps left

[pseudo kayak]

dont let him decieve you tacos

he's FUCKING you out of xp

[slim kettle]

Nice tip. Thanks

[jovial cobalt]

is escort kappa required

[carmine lantern]

but you need 61 for skiers final quests :3

[marsh wing]

i dont think so, but it was close to being done

[pseudo kayak]

yeah boshe

ur an asshole

[marsh wing]

same with guide, i was close with that one

[pseudo kayak]

taco id never do that to you

id wait till you were at the last map

[distant obsidian]

[marsh wing]

wait nevermind

he made me fail them last night when he TK'd me

[jovial cobalt]

way to make me feel even more bad!!!

[pseudo kayak]

dude the worst part

about this event

[jovial cobalt]

[pseudo kayak]

sorting everything after a series of raids

[pseudo kayak]

see taco made u feel like that id never do that to you

[slim token]

what is the spawn chance of shurman?

[jovial cobalt]

75% i think

[pseudo kayak]

he's either there or he's not

those are the spawn chances

@rapid urchin lmk if u wanna run raids

id be down to chill and sherpa

[rapid urchin]

will do

probably not today tho

[bronze saddle]

FINALLY..... revolvers 51

[marsh wing]

bruh

[bronze saddle]

also grenades too lol

[cerulean dune]

Yeh it’s been pre fun ay

[rapid urchin]

gray zone is p cool

it just needs a lot more content

mainly guns

[plush panther]

how are you even supposed to level up some skills? like immunity seems to get barely any progress from negative effects, and does heavy machine guns even level up from the mounted guns that are on the maps?

[odd gale]

Hello

[rapid urchin]

hi

[fervent peak]

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

Wiki also explains how to level other skills, go look em up

[marsh wing]

go get stabbed by cultists

[tacit latch]

y'all. Im level 32 in pve and im just going to streets for the first time on this account since the reset. what gun should I run while doing the first quests. I usually run 5.45 AK's and submachine guns like p90 and mp7. sometimes shotgun for closer maps like factory.

Ill put a screenshot of my quests in screenshots if that would help yall.

[pallid hornet]

50 night factory and 10 night customs raids without cultists. :))

[odd gale]

Run what you like tbh

[marsh wing]

night factory is only 12%

[odd gale]

If you have fps issues don't run a scope like a razor or a vudu

[pallid hornet]

people i know got them three times in a row, like everybody ive asked they always say they got them pretty easily

and I used to get them easily on customs before they changed to 12% on factory so idk

[tacit latch]

I dont usually have fps issues on the game. i run a steady 30 to 60 frames and play just fine. Im just indecisive and im not sure what to go with, since most of yall are better then me I though I would ask you.

[plush panther]

I mean I know how they get levelled up but some skills like immunity just seem awfully slow to level no?

[odd gale]

I like to run m4's or Nl's

Also same with SR-25

And Rsass

[tacit latch]

I got a hk416, or I could deck out a m4 with a good recoil build and 60 rounders.

[odd gale]

Both very good guns

I usually run the model 1

But last time I checked it was 2m?

[marsh wing]

just run M4 with model 1 parts

[halcyon depot]

very expensive yeh

[marsh wing]

not as expensive if you play arena

[halcyon depot]

true

[odd gale]

I got one for free

Idk how

[pallid hornet]

I am kinda desperate atp 4 days hunting them for hours they are never here ... stuck bcuz of that unfortunately, and everybody else have them when I ask 😭

[jovial cobalt]

just do customs since you can generally get in and get out kinda quick

[pallid hornet]

yeah I hop from customs to factory

[jovial cobalt]

checking for them laying down in bushes anywhere in the open area around stronghold

[fervent peak]

As stated in the wiki, skill points are alloted once the debuff expires. The longer the debuff, the more exp you get.
As for the points to time ratio? Sure, it's skewed to a huge degree. Something they need to work on

[pallid hornet]

before I never struggled like that to find them idk

[jovial cobalt]

rng moment

[pallid hornet]

I know all the spawn points etc its just that they dont wanna spawn lol

[jovial cobalt]

they also seem a little passive now, they will just stare at me w their knife out or run past me with knife

[tacit latch]

I CANNOT for the life of me complete the customs test drive for prapor. Ive gone about 20 to 25 raids on customs with no pmc's, the ONE raid I had pmc's I got Gooned in the one building I didnt have any cover. I also ran out of ammo and lost both arms.

[pallid hornet]

like for example in the cultist event when they were at 33% they would insta rush at you with knives so you find them pretty quickly, i always check the full map twice before extracting but nope

[pseudo kayak]

ill list one for 500k rn if you wnt

[halcyon depot]

hmm

yeh ok

go for it

[pallid hornet]

just check the whole area near zb11 extract they tend to spawn there a lot, ive seen them dorms, ruaf and big red also

[pseudo kayak]

alr 1s

[tacit latch]

yeah I try to check over there, but more often then not I get jumped by like 7 scavs with sks and my arms are gone before I know it. Or there I just dont run into anyone

[halcyon depot]

just let me know

[magic yacht]

Ngl im suprised Blue Folders are dirt cheap

[fervent karma]

??event

[quasi apex]

Killa and Tagilla are 100%, along with their clean up crew on Factory!
Player scavs are temporarily restricted from the Factory location.

[magic yacht]

Buying them for 400k then selling a fresh PKM for 1m

[halcyon depot]

can someone tell me why the radian 1 is sought after

like what is great about it

[fervent peak]

Level 100 BP from previous season

Just exclusivity

[halcyon depot]

oh ok

[magic yacht]

Literally just rarity

[halcyon depot]

so just rarity

ok thanks

[magic yacht]

Because Ref and Arena are bullshit

[fervent peak]

There are a couple parts of the model 1 that could be better in some builds, but that's about it

[halcyon depot]

yeh

[fervent peak]

Also, it's PvE. A million rubles is like one raid in labs

[halcyon depot]

yeh

[magic yacht]

Still doesnt convince me

Since I can get about the same results with an HK

[fervent peak]

While it's rarity is a price hiker, acquiring one is nbd

[reef furnace]

Just leveled up to crafting level elite

[magic yacht]

Doesnt make it any less Bullshit that you can buy them from Ref but sell them on Flea

[reef furnace]

I feel so free now

[halcyon depot]

well im gonna try it on factory now

[reef furnace]

Just telling you tagilla and his brother spawns after 8 minutes

Like an arena match

🤓

[halcyon depot]

ah ok

so its after 8 min

i was wondering

[pseudo kayak]

oh crud i completely forgot, let me look for goons on this customs match rq

[halcyon depot]

all good

dont worry about it

its fine

i gotta go out any way

[pseudo kayak]

WAIT

i hit the back button dont you quit out now

[halcyon depot]

ok

[pseudo kayak]

alr lmk when r

[halcyon depot]

readu

ready

[pseudo kayak]

i wonder if i can even list for 500k

alr going up now

[halcyon depot]

got it

[pseudo kayak]

👍

[halcyon depot]

thanks

[pseudo kayak]

that's a brand new model 1 straight from ref

[halcyon depot]

nice

thanks

[pseudo kayak]

be really careful of all of them

when you go/if you get a new one

[halcyon depot]

yeh

yeh

[void wadi]

has anyone ran into download checksum errors when attempting to download tarkov from the launcher error code 108003

my buddy is downloading the game and when the download finishes he gets an error and it asks him to reinstall but gives that same error

[pseudo kayak]

now if youll excuse me time to go hunt for goonies

[halcyon depot]

all good

good luck

[pseudo kayak]

been farming this event so much my level is high but i have no tasks done

[fervent peak]

DO YOUR TASKS YOU NERD

[white steppe]

Anyone looking to grind out quests tonight n get that loot

[pseudo kayak]

im being fucked out of ll4 bc of not doing tasks 💀

[carmine lantern]

[pseudo kayak]

alr 5.45 ps may have not been the best thing on an ak74u for running into the goons

i mean theyre dead but

that was jank

[magic yacht]

Wdym ps is just fine

[zinc glen]

Hola alguien que hables español?

[broken lintel]

anyone wanna help me kill all the clean up crew and the boss in factory

dm me if u do

[pseudo kayak]

yeah uh not when they schizo ran and i missed headshots 😭

[long salmon]

ive searched over 100 duffle bags on labs for the evasion arm band, amd i unlucky or is the loot table for duffle bags different on labs?

[carmine lantern]

the evasion band is probably the most sought after kappa item

[long salmon]

so keep searching duffles im guessing?

[tulip citrus]

i found an evasion armband on a jacket recently as scav and got one from cultist circle

[carmine lantern]

and cultist circle if that gives it

[tulip citrus]

cultist circle is so good, got 2 black keycard from it and an ap sx 40 pack 4 days ago

[long salmon]

what did you put in the circle to get the armband?

[tulip citrus]

i don't think it really matters but

i placed 5 ssd drives, for black keycard i placed 5 sas drives

[carmine lantern]

anything that gets you potentially 6 hrs, check the wiki mostly

[long salmon]

im also doing 5 ssd

can you get it from scav case?

[fervent peak]

Most certainly a you issue on that one

[tulip citrus]

yeah i got a pestily, 1sch FS face shield and evasion

[distant obsidian]

??circle

[quasi apex]

The cheapest confirmed circle recipes are all from Peacekeeper, here they are listed per trader level.
LL1 - 5 mp5's
LL2 - 2 MPX Suppressed #eft-chat message
LL3 - Flea dependent - G28 barter #eft-chat message (1 labs card)
LL4 - THOR IC armor⁠ #eft-chat message (1 sas drive) <- Prompts a 12 hour circle as per the soft armour price changes - do not use.

[distant obsidian]

all that matters is teh value put in

unless its a special 1 time craft

[magic yacht]

I see the bots LL4 is still unchanged
An empty Thor IC does proc a 14h circle

[hearty vapor]

does anyone use A-XMP and does it make a difference on tarkov?

[midnight wasp]

someone sold me a completely broken and gutted RD704. jokes on them i love ugly AK's. dustcovers are for cowards afraid of sand (AR users)

[marble bronze]

are you using EXPO? because you should be using EXPO

[hearty vapor]

i dont think my bios has that setting

[marble bronze]

it should

[hearty vapor]

i didnt check it fully though

[marble bronze]

if it's even a remotely modern AMD system

[hearty vapor]

im running a ryzen 7 5700x

[distant obsidian]

expo is AMDs xmp right?

[hearty vapor]

i had xmp in my bios and i have AMD

[jovial cobalt]

always search the purple briefcases

i swear thats the best way i find kappa items

[long salmon]

Ye ive been hitting those aswell, no luck :/

[pseudo kayak]

huh welp

I got got pinged in the face

1 round of bp flew through my death shadow

[hearty vapor]

i get 60 FPS on streets now without really any drops

[jovial cobalt]

cleanup crew?

[carmine lantern]

me

[jovial cobalt]

wow tker

who would ever do that

[void wadi]

anyone running into any launcher error codes atm downloading tarkov? something related to path errors?

[distant obsidian]

nope

#community-support

[fervent karma]

what's up with this cleanup crew?

factory worth it currently or should I wait and skip the event?

aimbot is crazy on the crew and killa

[jovial cobalt]

i took advantage of the xp but thats all thats really worth it

and killa for tracksuit ig

60k xp in 20min raids boosted me from lv30 to 35 in a day

[carmine lantern]

the xp is extremely good if you can survive

best in the game imo

[fervent karma]

yeah seems like it

survival is the key though xD

[onyx dagger]

Does anyone know if the event means that killa wont spawn on interchange? I ran 4 raids earlier with no killa and now another 3 no killa

[fervent karma]

alright well, good luck folks

[onyx dagger]

Has anyone seen him on interchange since the event started?

[crystal oyster]

People have said he's still on interchange

[onyx dagger]

Ok ty 🙂

[timid whale]

how many cleanup crew tend to spawn per run?

[pseudo kayak]

that was weird are we sure tagilla and killa spawn as a pair?

I just had tagilla around 1 minute and 10?s after

[carmine lantern]

not as a pair, they can spawn in different areas and at different times probably

ive had killa spawn 13 min left

and tagilla wasnt anywhere around

[pseudo kayak]

ahh okay

ty me

[carmine lantern]

but they can spawn as a pair for sure as well, ive seen them both at med tent

np me

[pseudo kayak]

oh my bad

yeah i was like okay there's killa

1 minute later then tag finally spawns

[lucid sundial]

Looking for a few more teams of duo for tournament. No fee to register and money for prizes.

[distant obsidian]

wrong discord for this my man

[lime mauve]

20k xp for killing killa and a few cleanup crew is pretty nutty yeah 🤣

[odd gale]

Yeah wrong discord

[pseudo kayak]

wrong channel too 😭

[lime mauve]

But I'm burning plates and guns fast as fuck

[pseudo kayak]

Hello PvE'rs! PvP time!

[pseudo kayak]

alr that's weird

cuz it should be 35k+ xp for making it to killa

or well unless you dont headshot

[lime mauve]

I was running with a squad

[distant obsidian]

probably no bonuses from hudeout?

[pseudo kayak]

ah okay

[distant obsidian]

o

[pseudo kayak]

I have no bonuses 💀

my hideout is all lvl 1/2 stuff

vents is level 3

[distant obsidian]

slacking

[pseudo kayak]

LOL

I am heavily

[lime mauve]

I wasn't killing everything myself but 5-6 pre-boss kills is easily pushing 10k xp

[distant obsidian]

get that hideout done

[pseudo kayak]

compared to before wipe im doing everything backwards

[distant obsidian]

lol

[lime mauve]

Remember to sell guns to ref. Squeezing half a mil per raid when I yoink 4 guns and sell them to ll4 ref after taking the ammo I want out of them

[soft aurora]

What guns do u guys recommend to use at level 2 traders. Been ages (3 years) since i last played tarkov so i fell out of meta completely

[lime mauve]

Shitty runs where my squad gets most of the kills I'll maybe make 300k roubles and 4k xp but good raids get me 12k+ xp and half a mil pretty easily

I'm tempted to start dropping insured gear right before I extract so I can pull an extra gun and some armor to sell to ragman too 😂

[soft aurora]

I hate the way they changed flea ngl

Could have at least keep it away from pve

90% of cool shit is banned on flea or requires level 40-50

[odd gale]

Flea is fine the way it is imo

[lime mauve]

Ehhh I'd like to be able to buy loose ammo again

[carmine lantern]

fuckers hit me in the jaw, thank god I had those chops

[lime mauve]

After I lost gear fear I've been burning my good ammo a hell of a lot faster than I can get more

[odd gale]

You need to monitor how much you use per raid

[soft aurora]

Its pve 💀

[cerulean dune]

Where does your gun go if you die but been insured

[soft aurora]

Abyss

[lime mauve]

I do. The final tally for this event is a couple thousand rounds of 5.45 BP, BS, and PPBS and for 5.56 we're at yes

[meager coyote]

I love fraud 🗣️

[cerulean dune]

What’s that mean

[lime mauve]

It usually comes back

[soft aurora]

How does insurance even work in pve

Do u always get ur shit back?

Game rolls a dice?

[meager coyote]

Seeing what people are getting makes me wanna farm this event, but I am lazy

[lime mauve]

Do you play on bsg servers or local

[carmine lantern]

anything insured comes back to you in pve

[soft aurora]

Its w/e can play both

[lime mauve]

If you're good with fighting raiders you can farm these dudes all day long

[carmine lantern]

unless either theres a glitch (rare), or you're in labs or labrys

[lime mauve]

It's as profitable as a real shitty labs run

[carmine lantern]

in coop w other people in pve, the raid will stay open until everyone leaves, so if a scav picks up your gear, it will not come back

[cerulean dune]

Got me self sniped from a bot in pitch darkness good times

[soft aurora]

So that means if i go full chad to nuke cleanup crew on factory and i got smoked. I get everything back?

[carmine lantern]

yes, you lose ammo and misc items but anything you can insure, you will get back after time

[lime mauve]

So unless it was fixed there was a chance you would lose your gear on bsg servers because the ai would loot your body. On local the raid terminates the moment you die so your insurance would come back pretty much every time

[carmine lantern]

that was fixed a long time ago

unless you are in coop the raid will close as soon as you die

bsg or local

[soft aurora]

Sounds kinda busted

[cerulean dune]

What’s the most valuable item you can farm?

[carmine lantern]

its balanced by most people not really being that good so they die a lot

[soft aurora]

Also it it me or did they make post raid healing much more expensive now?

Shit can cost up to like 50-60k now

[carmine lantern]

its better to use a grizzly out of raid for post healing

[lime mauve]

Is there still a little rng? Prapor used to have like 80% return chance and therapist was like 90ish I think

[carmine lantern]

costs less+gives you some healing xp

[cerulean dune]

?

[meager coyote]

Grizzly my beloved

[lime mauve]

From the event? Guns and ammo

Stock up

[soft aurora]

Yeah ik but dont have level to get grizzly yet

[onyx depot]

any idea why when i select a server with 150 ping, do i load into raid and get 300+?

[carmine lantern]

and it can say that but I have never had insurance not return to me, after several hundred hours of pve

[cerulean dune]

In terms of money

[soft aurora]

Grizzly overall is my favourite medkit. Heals everything. Cheap. And u can animation cancel it

[lime mauve]

These dudes carry everything from 5.56 fmj to 7.62x51 m61

[meager coyote]

Real, I have always gotten my stuff back when insured

[lime mauve]

The guns are wildly valuable to ll4 ref too

[lime mauve]

Are you playing factory or not?

There's different shit based on what you want to do

[cerulean dune]

Nah I’m new only like first map atm

[soft aurora]

Ah the cleanup crew. Went with tier 6 armor and tier 5 killa mask and got instantly head eyes with m61

[coral tree]

If I don’t turn in the task, can I keep farming the task items from my cultist circle?? Like the vulkan helmets

[lime mauve]

Questing. Open up the maps and learn some safe loot loops on interchange, streets, and reserve if you're really ballsy

[cerulean dune]

Okay cheerz

[carmine lantern]

whoops, sorry

'no idea about cultist tbh, but I guess you can find out, its probably not worth it though'

had you quoted on accident

[cerulean dune]

Quest must be the best way to get a groove, getting to used to looting anything and everything as I don’t know anything’s worth?

[lime mauve]

Outside the mall on interchange there's a few spots that spawn good ammo, all the meds you would ever want for basic heals, and even occasionally some decently valuable shit like gpus, ledx, moonshine, and defibs

[carmine lantern]

but for actual cash, the tasks will be the best for now. theres safe spaces in interchange (look up the scav camp and untar camp) for good loot, ground zero has computers and nice spots on the 2nd floor of the big buildings

[lime mauve]

I can run the outer edges of interchange blindfolded at this point lmao

[jovial cobalt]

questing definitely guides you through the maps

[soft aurora]

Whenever i play interchange i always get chased around by killa. I swear he has like 100% spawn chance

[jovial cobalt]

starting at ground zero and customs tasks and you'll eventually move to shoreline, bit of lighthouse, reserve

[carmine lantern]

a lot of stuff for straight cash though wont really be sellable until you get to higher levels, it gets much easier to make money once you get to 30-40+ and can sell gpus, keys, etc

[lime mauve]

Tha mall kinda scares me because of killa but that's only because I'm only confident enough to fight him when I have someone with me to help split aggro

[cerulean dune]

Is there a 3rd party map that lives feeds your location somehow?

Like can track you IG

[lime mauve]

Injectors, defibs, streamer items, and other random valuables sell to therapist for solid cash

For a new player anyway

[jovial cobalt]

maybee but 3rd party applications for eft can be a bit sketchy in terms of the games tos

[carmine lantern]

the wiki maps are good, and the reemr maps

once you learn a few landmark areas its easy to not get lost

and this is coming from someone who gets lost very easily

[jovial cobalt]

when you take a screenshot ingame it says the coordinates of where you're standing so i think technically there is something to track u using that, i just don't know if its 100% safe or not

[cerulean dune]

there some sorta compass ig?

[white steppe]

Again looking for a group or duo to get some quests done down to farm new event for achievements

[carmine lantern]

there is a compass item but you get it a bit later and it can also bug out and not work properly

[lime mauve]

I wouldn't suggest using them if they do exist. Pve would get wayyyyy too stale real fast

[jovial cobalt]

jaeger sells one or prapor gives you one for completing 'search mission' side task

[cerulean dune]

Purely just to learn the map faster. Only wasting time tryna find extracts just to get myself killed so

[carmine lantern]

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

just use a wiki map for it all

[lime mauve]

Once you learn ai behavior you'll find there's not as much of a rewarding feeling when you extract. Having your hand held all over the map would axe the rest of the rush

[jovial cobalt]

like rellinou said definitely check out the maps on the wiki

[fervent peak]

I thought new event did NOT have achievements attached

Unless they mean boss ones.

[carmine lantern]

it does not have any event achievements or tasks

[fervent peak]

Probably the latter then

[lime mauve]

I still can't navigate woods by myself but I've started getting familiar with reserve and factory. Next step is shoreline and lighthouse probably

[carmine lantern]

the wiki map will also show your spawn points and extracts, double tap o to see what extracts you can use during that raid, some will be unique

or just use the lfg to find a guide maybe

[jovial cobalt]

also doesnt the ingame map items tell you where the extractions are now?

less helpful than wiki but still neat

[cerulean dune]

I feel extract is more the basic mechanic I rather feel better by finding good loot and killing. Then satisfaction of finding where to extract

[lime mauve]

There's only a couple maps where the extracts are actually a pain in the ass to find

[cerulean dune]

I sorta noticed there mostly on the outskirts

[lime mauve]

The good loot is always where the ai are pathing to

[carmine lantern]

some maps are much shrimpler than others

and yea, they are almost always on the edges, outside of some more unique extracts

[lime mauve]

Fucking d2 😡

[cerulean dune]

Wish you could have a toggle on pve mode to help more to find extracts for rookies like me lmao

[lime mauve]

Bunker hermetic door is a pain in the ass too

Switch on one side of the map, extract on the other

Chance to spawn raiders the moment you hit the switch

[lime mauve]

Part of what makes tarkov so rewarding is how there's absolutely no hand holding

Trust me it wouldn't be the same if you had beacons pointing to where you want to go

Especially on pve

[cerulean dune]

Ye i get that. But pre much everyone knows the maps like the back of there hands so it means nothing to u anyways only annoying for people tryna get into the game

[soft aurora]

Ah yes

The rewarding process of
“Boot up map on second monitor to know where dafuq u going”

[lime mauve]

People do that? Lol

[soft aurora]

New players exist yk

[white steppe]

I have been just was looking for someone to enjoy the game with make it more fun

[lime mauve]

I learned customs without even knowing about the wiki 😂

[cerulean dune]

Real. It’s just an extra step that ain’t needed imo

[lime mauve]

And I'm not a 5000 hour chad

I'm only like... 500ish raids deep

[cerulean dune]

Like you spawn in with all this gear least they could do is give u a map 😂

[soft aurora]

Customs is like second easiest map to learn

It aint that big of a flex

[carmine lantern]

it would be much lamer if they just had a hud right on your screen that showed you where you are at all times

[lime mauve]

Yeah it took me 2 or 3 raids with a friend to have both customs and interchange figured out

[jovial cobalt]

i still do that for questing sometimes

[soft aurora]

Maybe but i doubt anyone would be hurt if u could have a special GPS device in the special slot

[jovial cobalt]

if im less familiar with where i need to go

[carmine lantern]

the wiki stuff is kinda lame as well but there is a 3rd option which is just, playing the game by itself, which is what a lot of people used to do

[soft aurora]

It would keep u defenceless when u use it. And nobody except new players would use it anyway

Besides tarkov already added shit ton of “lame and easy mode” items

Like range finder

[cerulean dune]

Amen. It’s a nuisance to learn not exactly rewarding

[lime mauve]

Oh I absolutely look at the wiki for quests now. But I can navigate a few of the maps without the wiki and I only need the pictures of where in whatever room the task items spawn

[soft aurora]

Well most people simply cant be bothered

[jovial cobalt]

after learning streets it honestly doesn't feel that big

[carmine lantern]

im not saying they couldnt or shouldnt do it, but imo thats half of the game, you start with barely anything, scavenging around, you have to make your own way in a wilderness

[soft aurora]

I have all maps memorised but lets be realistic here. New players without wiki will progress at 8x slower pace

And i play tarkov since 2018. It was issue then and it is issue now. Hence this game mixed reviews

[lime mauve]

Streets was the 3rd map I learned. All I was taught there though was where the lexos gunners can see and where the minefields are. Everything else was basically "follow me or figure it out til I come back for relax" 😂

[soft aurora]

But previously tarkov had monopoly

[cerulean dune]

Ye it’s a bit of a killa for me. The gunplay mechanics and the looting still plently to wrap your head around on its own

[soft aurora]

So u either “got good” or u didnt play extraction shooter

Now u have multiple options to pick from

[lime mauve]

I like having my balls crushed

[soft aurora]

I dont mind helping you if u have any issues. I am rusty (had a big break) but i put countless hours into this game so i remember majority of stuff

Countless wipes in early 2018-2020

[marble bronze]

anyone seen the Mall snipers recently? feels like they got removed

[jovial cobalt]

also when a lot of veteran players started there was like 1/3 of the amount of content that we have now

made it easier to learn back then

and easier to learn any new change that they add on top with major updates n what not

[lime mauve]

I could help navigate the maps with good safe loot runs. Interchange and streets were my jam til I got to labs and started learning reserve

[soft aurora]

I mean true but tbh old meta was super boring and everyone was just using same gun and same armor

Old meta was laser no recoil m4(or HK if u had more money) and slick altyn

[lime mauve]

And streets is super safe once you memorize a couple lanes

[jovial cobalt]

not for a very long time tbh

[soft aurora]

Alternatively fast MT with face shield

People also used a lot of russian 545 AK cuz ammo used to be bugged and was hella op

[jovial cobalt]

i remember pvping when there was no face hitbox i think

[cerulean dune]

Appreciate it! Na I’m just sicka looting up and my only ever struggle is where tf I’m supposed to go it comes with being new so I get that

[soft aurora]

Igolnik had 98%fragmentation chance not 2%

so it was double damage lol

[lime mauve]

Yeah and now it's still good and damn near unlimited if you know where to look for it lol

[soft aurora]

Yeah igolnik dropped out of favour after they fixed it

[lime mauve]

I find so much 5.45 PP and BP it's stupid

[soft aurora]

Meta ammo was m855a1

[lime mauve]

There's plenty of that once you start running labs too

[marble bronze]

or, yanno, craft it

[lime mauve]

I don't really find it anywhere else except woods but not nearly as much as I find on labs

[soft aurora]

I mean idk now but back then u could just buy shit ton of it

[lime mauve]

Not all of us have all the quests done lmao

I'm still trying to finish what I need to unlock network provider

[soft aurora]

A lot of people were also abusing p90 cuz of cheap ammo

[marble bronze]

that's a very valuable quest to get done lol

[lime mauve]

Which quest is it

[soft aurora]

But back in oldd tarkov best gun was HK

[marble bronze]

Your Car Needs a Serivce, comes after Cargo x 4

[lime mauve]

I don't craft anything but 338 fmj right now lol

[soft aurora]

No recoil laser beam with ultra high rof

But also imo old tarkov was 5x easier

[lime mauve]

Oh that's... Yeah. I'm still on cargo x part 1 or 2

[soft aurora]

There was no such thing as FIR

U could literally buy item from trader

And list it in flea or use for mission

[marble bronze]

so you're pretty close 🙂

[lime mauve]

Wish I could have done that when I needed fucking tank batteries

[jovial cobalt]

lol rushing salewa quest and then selling them on the flea for like 10x the price because everyone needs them

[lime mauve]

Yeah I just don't like shoreline 🤣

[soft aurora]

Some people were making 100mlns

And didnt do a single raid

[marble bronze]

thug it out, my dude 🙂

[soft aurora]

Just flipping flea all day

[jovial cobalt]

stonks

[soft aurora]

Flea was level 5 too so u had it pretty much instantly

No restrictions

[lime mauve]

I liked reserve less than shoreline but I'm forcing myself to figure that map out

[soft aurora]

Or back when nikita forgot about btc existence

Irl btc shoot up

And u had passive 2mln roubles daily from ur farm

Good times

[lime mauve]

If there's a map I won't play solo because I can't identify shit its woods

[soft aurora]

Woods is overall imo dogshit map for pve

[lime mauve]

If I don't spawn in one of like 4 places I'm lost

[soft aurora]

Pve bot system is also really broken

I always assumed that bots adjust gear to map or your level

[lime mauve]

And I have to kill shturman 20 more times so that's fun

[soft aurora]

But its simply not the case

[lime mauve]

Definitely not

[soft aurora]

I killed level 6 bot with slick level 6 and meta m4

[jovial cobalt]

lmao

[soft aurora]

On ground zero

They're hard coded to certain routes too which makes various quests a pain in the balls

[soft aurora]

He was in team with guy who had PKP and korund

Both bots level 6-8

All died to a single love tap from my pp19

Also bots have really weird loadouts

[distant obsidian]

ai pmcs dont have pkps

[soft aurora]

Well this one did

[lime mauve]

Oh it's silly how braindead the pmcs are if you right peek properly

[distant obsidian]

and the m4s they have are not meta. the presets are ones you can find all over

[lime mauve]

They just fucking look at you and do nothing

[soft aurora]

I would have showed it to you but i stepped on claymore

And got vaporised

[soft aurora]

I saw video of a streamer spawning together with BTR crew guy

He killed him and looted PKP that doesnt exist

[tulip citrus]

lvndmark

[distant obsidian]

yes

[soft aurora]

So weird fuckery does indeed happen in this game

[distant obsidian]

it was a bug

ai pmcs are not btr drivers

[soft aurora]

Yesterday i saw a guy posting that he found a keycard with 1000 uses

[fervent peak]

Also that bug was fixed a long time ago

[distant obsidian]

and?

probably fake

stop believeing everything you see on the internet lol

[fervent peak]

Sadly a picture can be edited. It's very difficult to take that at face value

[lime mauve]

Probably cheated tbh

[soft aurora]

Aight g

[distant obsidian]

doubt you can cheat that item. YUou cant make items

only spawn ones that exist somehow

[lime mauve]

I wouldn't doubt cheaters are playing pve

[distant obsidian]

thewy do

rmt is still a thinh

[soft aurora]

They did a lot back in a day

[distant obsidian]

people will pay

[fervent peak]

I recall a 24" barrel vector with... 8 drum MP5 rear sights for half its mods lol

[cold ivy]

Anyone know what has a better chance of goons and cultists, local servers VS BSG servers?

[soft aurora]

Anyways what guns do u guys recommend at shop level 2

[lime mauve]

Make as in like... Craft?

[distant obsidian]

no, as in make a new item

[soft aurora]

Iam still running kedr a lot but it gets boring

[fervent peak]

Whatever is most comfortable for you, go try all the guns out

[soft aurora]

Iam comfy with all guns tbh

I used a lot of them in the past

[lime mauve]

Customs at night last I knew. Didn't matter if local or bsg servers

[fervent peak]

Then use whatever you want, our recommendation won't mean much

[soft aurora]

I more of meant “price/quality”

[fervent peak]

Simply my opinion, but both of those words are subjective. I could say go use a G36, but it may not be for you.

[lime mauve]

I think goons are 30% spawn chance and the last time I checked cultists were also 25 or 30% on customs

But cultists won't spawn if the bosses are alive

[cold ivy]

yeah, I've been running customs night raids over and over. just wasn't sure if there was a difference between the two server options.

[fervent peak]

Price can vary from 'I'm poor, so I use this to not die' to 'I'm rich, I'll just get the most expensive gun cause I can'

Quality can range from 'Recoil too high' to 'Ergo too low'

[soft aurora]

Iam not dead broke but basically at the early stages

[halcyon depot]

i just started the itimidator quest before the event so its great that the cleanup crew count as scavs

[cold ivy]

this part is news to me. I appreciate that.

[halcyon depot]

gotta headshot 40 of them

[soft aurora]

My all time favourite (shotguns) sadly got much weaker recently

Also what is the name of those stupid guys with masks

They fully negate my shotgun head eyes

[distant obsidian]

cultists will spawn with bosses alive

they can spawn mid raid

[jovial cobalt]

pillagers?

[soft aurora]

Yeah might be

[jovial cobalt]

luckily they gone for now

[lime mauve]

You running straight to stronghold? That's where goons and cultists spawn. Idk if reshala being at dorms or gas will stop cultists from spawning but I know every time I've ran into bosses at stronghold the cultists didn't spawn til I killed the bosses

[soft aurora]

Level 3 mask so stupid

[jovial cobalt]

at least it's not 4 anymore

i remember when many ppl were running it in arena i was getting real tired of it

[lime mauve]

You have to check the bushes and shit for cultists too. Those fuckers will not move sometimes

[cold ivy]

yeah, I found them at the End of my last raid, they extract camped. I smoked two but was going to run out of time and had to pull out before I found the priest.

[soft aurora]

Yeah shotguns got hella nerfed over the yets

Years

But tbh i get it. Buying AP 20 early on and just one tapping people was busted

[lime mauve]

There's been several runs I've had cultists spawn but the only reason I noticed them was because I saw a foot or muzzle sticking out of a bush or one chased me towards extract to try stabbing me 🤣

[soft aurora]

Good old meta

Double barrel, 10 magnum bucks (20 in safe pocket) and a sling
Insurance price 1300 roubles and always comes back

[honest sonnet]

2nd time I've crashed on customs as a scav.. this time i was at 1.2 seconds to evac...

[wheat bough]

Yall question is killa and tagilla plus cleanup crew in night factory or can I hunt cultists in peace there without tagilla again like last event

[soft aurora]

I think they are day only

[carmine lantern]

tagilla will still potentially be at night as a normal boss spawn

but crew is not at night

[soft aurora]

Yee

Event day only

[lime mauve]

Day only. I don't think cultists spawn frequently on factory anymore though

There's a website that tells you the spawn rates

[soft aurora]

Its always 50%

He either spawns or doesnt

[distant obsidian]

#eft-announcements it tells you

[carmine lantern]

it was kinda buffed to 12% cultist spawn rate on night factory

I think it used to be like 2% like in ground zero

[wheat bough]

Yeah that's why I was asking

[lime mauve]

Cultists are 12% on factory. Probably not ideal to hunt them there

Woods, customs, and shoreline are your best bet

[still fulcrum]

[soft aurora]

I agree

[carmine lantern]

[magic saffron]

am i able to drop golden neck chains? it says > 3 so does that mean i can drop 3 ?

[still fulcrum]

real entity in the game, trust

[soft aurora]

Maan

Ai loadouts are so freaking scuffed

90% of them dont even wear backpacks 😭

[still fulcrum]

and 30% of the time they dont got armor lol

[carmine lantern]

they know their fate
