Eh was busy doing something so I didnt have time to type out hit every keycard and check dark offices and res unit. Either way youre spamming labs
Also Leon's hideout on lighthouse and tagilla's lair on interchange have a chance to spawn bitcoin
Hit relax too if you're good with streets
Labs is by far the most reliable though. A good loot loop will almost buy a new black keycard after a single run if you don't find any in raid
There's a peacekeeper(?) barter for bitcoin too
People dont have that kind of patience and proceed to call a quest terrible 
those quests are okayish
Most of my pmc kills have been at that med camp and in the patch of trees between outskirts and sawmill. You just need to get there before those particular pmcs walk into sawmill
Eh ive got 1 more to go abd then I can plant the blue folders and move on
Then its off to shoreline to find pmcs at the resort
To finish outposts
Lol no kidding
Watch for goons. They have been locking onto me when I go into the east wing lately
Just yesterday had big pipe and birdeye rush me by vehicle extract after they started shooting me the moment I left the east wing and started towards smugglers camp
After a week of pure pain and suffering I finally did Return the Favor
My god never again
Gonna feel weird when I run out of quests
I saw the goons multiple times already in smugglers, killed em during one of fences story tasks, for some reason it counted em as scavs even though they are roughs, i mean the quest said 5 pmc kills no scav killing, ig now rouges and rouge bosses count as scavs too. You learn something new everyday.
As im rapidly approaching that lol
I just need knight for stray dogs now but I'm trying to focus on story tasks
my black injector room has nothing in it, only two injector next to bed is that normal?
If you can go shoreline, i saw them there more times in there the past week than i can count.
Yeah. Pretty much.
Knight is the one I usually end up killing myself and my squad gets big pipe and birdeye but now that I need knight it seems like big pipe is always the one rushing me first
whats the best for farming injectors>
Green and the medical room next to res
do not ever use the old black room on labs, its no good
From my own experience green card is much better for injectors
I only use black for the office
blue?
No
green is best for stims
There's a button next to res guard room
Tell your squad to only go for pipe ig, since the last one from my experience is usualy bird eye rush last, but knight does first.
??codes
oh you mean inside res area

Sanitars shitty little room across from green sometimes
if you go to the residential area w the keycard spawns, that whole area can have med bags/stims
gotcha
It lets you into the rest of the places res card spawns and it has assloads of med kits and sometimes a ton of stims
I wouldn't call that particular room res unit but it's close enough it might as well be
It's more like an actual laboratory
You hit a button in a little room right next to the guard room with the weapon/ammo spawns
It opens a door into this lab and it's usually loaded with all kinds of meds
In fact, idk my guys eyes in the hazmat suit in the didnt dry out. XD
and old black is just money loss since every keycard swipe is like 370k
Green and that room will always fill 2 injector cases lol
i mean i got money, its annoying that i need 15 sj1
Craft them
omg
The craft is an hour and you get 5 sj1 per craft
fuck me
Way easier than trying to loot them for sure but it will get expensive buying all the items from flea
You can loot most of the required items from med bags anywhere on labs or interchange pretty reliably
blue key worth looting?
Ehhh
money is no issue
It spawns some stims but it's not nearly as good as green
but i dont want it to be likle 2 fucking injector like old black
Hell even yellow is better than blue
Yellow is like 200k for 10/10 last I checked and I have pulled bitcoin and half a mil in streamer items in a single pull on more than one occasion
Blue has never been anything close to that for me
yellow is underrated
one of the best key
it should be a mill key 500k minimun imo
My loop usually consists of yellow, black safe, res, red, green, and violet
Yellow is pure profit with 1 hit most of the time but it's the keycard I find most often in marked rooms too
for sure
Underrated as fuck but the supply is also insane
blue is trash
where is blue?
black, red, yellow, violet, green
Next to res
in front of resi>?
blue is around res unit/green area
kk
Just down the hall. Between res and old black I think
ill hit it anyway cuz its safe area
Green is on the 2nd floor. Blue is first floor
gonna put it in craft
i normally dont bother with med room like black/green/blue etc.. only black safe and yellow I dnt loot red or violet either, res is enough most of the time
red and violet are always worth it
green is meh, blue i only carry if you see a card
Depends on how full I am when I finish res, green, and yellow
Green is awesome
i dont loot black stim room unless a ledx spawns
ya i peek to see if there is leddy
i havent had good luck with green since pre 1.0
maybe 1 ledx. decent amount of ammo but red is better
green makes its money back but its mediocre
right
then theres dome and the weapon test which are okay as well
Still debating if I should just run my reserve marked room keys dry
i use all the keys besides managers office usually
Kinda wanna save them if they ever bring back super marked rooms again π
trade 1 use for 314
Correct, but super marked room event in the future
rubs chin
wait what?
3 1 use keys for a 10/10 of technically best key
Potentially, not actually
it wont be before prestige, thats for sure
Back before 1.0, they made marked rooms SUPER juicy, basically guaranteed 2-3 labs keycards and like several valuables
Even lighthouse marked room was worth hitting
dont see that happening soon
is that like once a year thing?>
random
technically they had that recently w the weapon case event
The stims pay for the card. I find tons of mules, sj6, etg, and propital in green
I've only found maybe 3 ledx in like 5 or 6 full cards
too much rng in stims
I'm always in need of etg, mules, and perfotoran
I hate fighting bosses without etg and perfotoran. I need mules for marked room, woods, and lighthouse runs
i used up one of the 314 keys i got from the cultist event and i didnt expect to pull that many black keycards from it.
Sj6 I'll use early raid before I loot anything but after I grab stuff I pop a mule and then it's like damn near unlimited stamina
funnily enough i get a lot of keycards from black office
314 really wants me running labs again when i dont need to
trim+sj6 is unlimited
I'll take those black cards off your hands lol
I love labs
if you want to run some labs tonight bandit i dont mind opening up the door a few times for ya
But when extremely overweight?
not sure im never that heavy
after hitting max str I dont think ive gotten extreme overweight unless ive been carrying someone elses shit
I have a few blacks. I'm trying to do story stuff but in between time gated steps and deaths I hit labs
I havent used a mule since like lvl 30 lol
right
when I was lugging around hideout shit I would get super overweight but I just dont often pick up any of that stuff now
same
I don't have max strength yet and I always run lighthouse and reserve equipped to snipe as my primary way of clearing a path to where I need to go
Axmc is heavy as hell
i feel ya on that i farmed labs for an ungodly amount of runs early on in my pve career when i bought the game and my mmo addiction for farming kicked in and i ended up living in labs for a full month and farmed up more ammo and valuables than i could ever use.
and that was loooong before i got a shit load of keycards from opening marked rooms post cultist event.
my original route for a month straight was res unit, dark offices, weapons testing and then leave lol.
then i bought some keycards and ended up getting more as i opened shit so it just kept going
My loop when I still wasn't confident in fighting raiders was res, green, dark offices, then med elevator for extract
i only hit res and red for the ammo fuck WT
before i got fully comfy with labs i was doing sewer extract all the time
so i was popping a mule or a 2g to get there
Now I'll almost always add yellow and black and if I'm not fully loaded I'll hit red and violet
that and i didnt have max str yet so that was a pain in the ass
now though i hit every keycard except for green and blue
If I'm not being pushed I'll start swapping loot out for max profit
and shoot anything that moves with my vector
Don't sleep on green
eh i dont need it brother and it makes me go outta my way on the circle
holy blue is dog water, 1 injector
ive got enough chems spread across 7 med chests
like i shouldn't even be going into labs anymore i dont need anything but the hunger to hoard calls for me
and i want to finish filling my 3rd scav box with btc/ram/gpus/ledx
You'll need to farm it at some point if you haven't done all the quests that require assloads of stims to be turned in lol
And assessment?
theres a reason this got automodded. Don't discuss it
yea did that a long while ago
Another one bites the dust.
all i have left is to do a bunch of stuff at WTP for mechanic and prapor
and outposts
I'm working on unlocking lightkeeper so I can turn in batya
just been waiting to do those when i get rogue support from lk
so i can just sprint in there and not worry about them aggroing when i touch the rooftops
im waiting on the cat man to get back to me for ticket
as for the main storyline ive made 5 of the rfid cards from kerman
Fuck you for not giving me cultist Priest kills
i just need to sit down and watch some route videos for terminal
i got that shit before the customs event
now you gotta run night factory
The event ends tomorrow right?
Reshala and Glukhar are having a turf war on Customs. 100% spawn rate for Reshala and Glukhar, and AI scavs are replaced with guards.
We can run it then. Maybe.
maybe
Batya is done once I give all those items to lightkeeper right?
basically yea
you have to wait a bit, come back, and pick up some paper
from what I recall at least, I did it a while ago now
Not a big deal. I just hate not being able to run lighthouse when koba has to talk to lightkeeper π
I hate playing lighthouse solo
But if I come he can't talk to lightkeeper because I don't have the transmitter
lighthouse solo at night is a vibe for me until i run into goons
Goons are the entire reason I hate running lighthouse and shoreline solo
Goons are the sole reason I love those maps solo. That's my exp.
is there anything we can unlock quest wise after level 62?
Customs is sketch too but at least I know goons don't spawn at dorms so I don't technically have to fight them

everyone on reddit is happy. really lame. 5 mans aren't even optimal it's a strictly anti-fun measure.
i dont mind fighting em on customs as i can usually get them to push me inside a building with one way in and killbox em
and just point m60 upper toso height at a doorway and spray
no quests outside of the skier questline at 61, from what I recall
ah cool then yea im truly done once i finish my straggler quests on lighthouse at WTP
since i just need 2-3 more labrys runs to finish the kill count quest for ragman
This is the only way I managed to kill big pipe and birdeye yesterday. They had one path to push me from and I held the nastiest angle on it π
so yea going to focus on finishing up the lk quests to unlock rogue support and then finish lighthouse
Sa58 loaded with m80 and bcp fmj to the torso/face worked wonders
by then i should have around 20 keycards crafted for terminal
and i can then go live in terminal
Birdeye folded in like 3 shots
lol yea ive got 3800 rounds of m80, about 2400 of m993 3200 ish of m80a1 and then about 2600 m61 currently
Big pipe ate a few but the recoil to his face destroyed him quick enough
338 fmj is good enough for me
i know it is but labs provided me plenty lol
I use ucw a lot too. The axmc shoots super flat so it's not hard to consistently tap faces
did they add icebreaker yetttt
Trying to get a few spare m10s because they're so much better though
yes
they did?
no, made you look
π‘
338 lmg when
still no evasion armband after 8 hours of looting jackets, bags etc always one item wants to evade me
π
should add the sig lmg
50 bmg lmg when
That's not a thing
There's actually legit a 338 lmg that's part of the sig spear program
I want a 9mm lmg
but its a video game, doesnt have to exist
Ah finally unlocked black comtac 6
This is quite a grounded video game so most stuff actually exists
most
Almost all of it
I can't name anything off the top of my head that doesn't exist in some form
it would need to be a 50 bmg hmg right
It's not 338 Lapua magnum tho
Isn't it?
It's 338 Norma Magnum
I can't remember
Smaller case
I mean same caliber but different cartridge
Yeah I know that means the ammo would be specific to that gun but it would be fun to play with lol
We have the mxlr and ak50 that also use their specific ammo
well yea that bit isnt a real problem, theres like 5 guns now that use their own special ammo
and that chinese AR they're adding also uses its own specific ammo, from what I recall
I'd like to see some more civilian style rifles chambered in 308 too
I wish they would've given us a Browning lever action in .300 win mag over the marlin express
The Remington model 700 comes in a variety of calibers
I wanna see barrels be wear parts, especially on the magnum rifles
Fuck that. Give us .45-70
i hate how they chambered it in 308 when we already had 308
So 308 and 7.62x51 are actually different
Yeah should have been 45-70 or 30-30 or something
Not by a meaningful (in game terms) amount
Its like the difference between 5.56 and 223
Which is also very minor
It's not that different but it's different enough they shouldn't be used interchangeably
They can. But they shouldn't
when you hopping on bandit
45-70 wouldve been lit
Also the bolt face for 5.56 nato is compatible with 300 blackout and a handful of other cartridges so theoretically you could just swap the barrel on any ar platform weapon and shoot either round from it
Would have dick for pen, and be slow, so slightly less powerful ash12 in lever action form
It would be SO MUCH FUN though lmao
Eventuallyβ’
When 458 socom
Or 450 bushmaster
Sucks
Even more so
So?
i wanna see this one
There's plenty of ammo that sucks
Flesh only ammo
But as pve enjoyers why bother staying meta?
Ok grandpa back to bed
I would pay Nikita $10 right now to give us the m1 garand
And that round would actually be relevant as a dmr or bolty round too
10 bucks π
I just spent almost all my money today lmao. I got $10 left
hed spent more on liscencing then that 10 bucks lol
I'd upgrade to unheard in a heartbeat if we got some ww2 and more cold war era weapons
unheard is the gamma container right
you got the ppsh and youll be happy with it
Something tells me he's not licensed to use most of this shit in the game
they wouldve been sued to hell and back already if it wasnt
Does glukhar spawn in reserve or no cause of the customs event?
As far as I've seen no
not right now no
gotcha thanks
Let us know π
But I haven't seen him in my last 5 reserve raids or so. Usually he's there every time
He is not there during the event
chis
cheems
Did my 1st lighthouse today on this playthrough. Spawned in the tunnel with another pmc lol. I was so confused when I load in and instantly hear " i see the enemy"
Water treatment seems way toned down. Way less scavs and rogues spawning than I remember.
I still remember one of my first times on lighthouse and a pmc spawned w me
in that same tunnel I think
and he instantly tried to throw a grenade at me
almost point blank
Hello! i have a problem, i purchased PVE dlc and when i go to launch it it just says "purchase in store" do you know maybe how to fix this?
all ive seen is to contact support on the website
Lol I think the pmc was trying to nade me too. He didnt shoot.
He crouched down and I just domed him

Can i see how often i visited a map(like 20x woods, 30x customs)? no right?
nah
waddup everyone
i just finished that task today, got perfect spawns both times I went in to plant the parts
did you rangefind the target itself or something in front of the target. because I don't trust the rangefinder to actually figure out the targets, I always use it for areas near the target
yeah we got perfect spawn but friend wanted to go through the UN extract the chad route rather than the rat route and we almost died
but i planted everything at once though
Dang, yeah i had to go in twice because I had the craft going like a dumbass
one of our friends wants to do setup and yeah apparently its impossible now
yea good luck finding pmc on customs
just wait till after tomorrow events over soon
oh phew
Do pmc's like not spawn on interchange at all?
They tend to spawn at the power station or the bear camp
where is bear camp?
The one with the flare extract
you sure? never seen them up there at all
May be your luck
Cause I've seen 3 to 4 of them spawn there
Like 20% of my time
ight ima go see for myself
Playing interchange
I aimed at the target and at the sandbags infront of him I dunno its strange
I get that, just like I never see them and never hear them
has anyone seen pmc's spawn in dorms since this event started?? i'm like 20 raids deep and i only ever find glucose
you might wanna wait out that task
ugh, i've been begrudgingly realizing that..
most of the time there will be several groups that spawn in, potentially. most common are the ones across the street from idea, the ones near power, and ones near emercom. those are the big spots to check start of raid imo
problem with pmc's is that they will, very commonly, get stuck in areas and just sit there for like half or the full raid
like near the ramp/containers by emercom
im tossing aroung grnads to get them moving and yelling
so toss nades in those common areas. if they dont bug out they will commonly move either mid mall or toward idea
the goal for them is move inside mall, loot a bit, and then extract, I think all pmc's will try to go inside at some point
I found 3 alive near railway and 2 dead
I needed 5 kills for the ticket mission
those 3 killed the 2 I needed
time to see if goons are a thing...
woah without any intent I am 2 maps away from finishing the guide
and last one is easiest
surely they spawn shoreline!
I did shoreline on my first raid'
I ran 3 laps around the whole map,
gg
yeah well the goons apparently hate me
yea reloading my shit and getting back in
dang uninstalling ig

ts unreal
running bsg servers and local combined
they just genuinely hate me
Guess the recent codes are no longer valid? CARGOSHIP, EAGLEEYE and POWERMOVE?
yerp
damn course i work and miss the chance for those over weekend T_T
whats the spawn chance for cultist on factory rn?
like 12%
atp i believe theyre just not spawning bc i have stray dogs
if I wasnt at work im a goon attractor, my first raid last night had them
im lowkey starting to believe the bsg vs non
but like
idk
cuz ive run bsg
I had them back to back on lighthouse
If your trying to hunt cultists go to Woods or Shorline they have the highest chances of spawning on those maps

In Labs, is there a way I can choose which keycard to use when swiping?
scroll
I mean, choose between 2 black cards
nop
pain
luck of the draw
its normally whichever one is in your inventory first
I have a 2/10 and 8/10 left
Really want to swipe them into 1/10 and 7/10
I'm just gonna sell the 2/10 I guess
stim room sucks swipe the other black room that takes two card uses one for door one for safe
its over by yellow
Yeah that's the problem, can't get a way to swipe different black cards for the door and the safe
might aswell run it ive pulled brand new black cards from the safe
tbh I'd just keep running the black cards, the room is a loot pinata
just open old black room one time to get the 1/10
i heard some REALLY loud ass shots
from wtp
but nobody is here?
i had killed the ags campers
the rogues can be hiding in the buildings
Average tarkov schizo experience
or god knows where
they could have rotated to the road or smuggler camp area who knows
no way a freak shot that loud
it was like BOOM 3s BOOM
i came from village side or wherever tf that is
Birdshit's sako?
Scavs getting hit by mines
goddamnit
oh yeah probs mines
it sounds like that?
i mean yeah it's an explosion
It kinda sound like a lapua but more bassy
it was pr bassy
it was only ever 2 at once
i heard two at the beginning
and then 2 recently
could have been birdeye but he's prob prone in a bush by now
you'll never find him
doing the intro for lightkeeper?
no
stray dogs for kappa
but FUCKING CUSTOMS HAS A DUMBASS EVENT GOING ON
fucking dogshit event
meh they're much easier to kill in lh imo
I just run to idiot rock, snipe some and get out. you need the xp anyway
no tf i dont not for kappa
intimidator requires 45


45 was like
oh lol
your name was 42 until you changed it wasnt it
shoreline gooners suck
was capturing outpost ever required for kappa?
i remember it being so
No
nah it used to be mandatory
Actually yes my bad
Seems like its been on-off for Kappa according wiki's edit history
hey, at least you'd find your gooners after running to the scav bunker the millionth time
I wish tarkov had more guns, again reached point of nothing to run
i mean they spawn at bunker
yeah they do
woods blows
too bad every map that has them rn is 50 MILLION MILES
Spot you through the trees and its not fun time
surely they just spawn AT CHALET
big pipe will just lay you down with tracers from the mcx while you're looting the usec camp
and you wont see where he is even shooting from
they're cancer in woods
That's basically what I'd do, just go to idiot rock with a flir or something, kill anything you see at chalets, extract
Cheese.
not the fastest way of doing them but eh, had fun
actually no i did them at wtp for the actual task lol, purely on accident
cant say w the new spawns that im a fan of even going to lighthouse at all
especially as a bear
you're not wrong
though if they do spawn in water treatment, you'll know soon enough after you spawn in
should be v easy on reserve without glukhar
wait glukhar doesn't even spawn there atm?
no
havent seen any sightings, no
lol explains why its been such a snoozefest for me
like half of my deaths have been in reserve
wdym
they home in on you
through walls?
you can spawn like right across from it
what if i spawn out of los of wtp entirely
well not like that, but I mean as soon as any of them have sight on you
and that will be soon if you spawn next to them
Hey
so knowing my luck
theyll be fucking turned all the way around
with their back towards me
and theyll be stupid
they can die to the mines
yeah great
the goons are pussballs
dumbasses who don't know left to right
they're all so genuinely stupid
BUT THEY REFUSE TO FUCKING SPAWN

bruh
yes
required for kappa
i feel like theyre sitting in a fucking blimp laughing
Ah then its typical "If quest = yes > reduce spawn 90%"
seriously marlin + mp7 is currently my fav thing ever
EVER SINCE I ACCEPTED THIS QUEST
just such a perfect combo
wtf 
oh? he spawns often for me
i just kill a scav and realize after the fact that its actually partizan
I have not seen partisan in 3 months
gotta camp more
I run, gun, die, repeat
do u run local or bsg servers?
local, but i dont think that stuff matters
partizan spawn rate in theory depends on your whatever karma lol
it does.
like if you camp a lot, he should come more often
it does not
local servers spawn more partisan
once there's datamined proof, I'll believe that
I cant remember the last time I sat in a bush at all
was vss fine for goals or means? or should i go for as val
local spawns more partizans guys trust me
VSS with SPP
i played 1600392842042842 raids on local and got partizan twice
I still hate they reduced distance to 50
i got him back to back just now on woods local
but that doesn't mean he spawns more on local vs bsg
7/18 raids on bsg and ive gotten partyman
well he got me the first time
thats surprising
partizan w snb avt π
for me 99% of partizan interactions has been "oh killed a scav" and then "oh it was partizan"
People have problems with partisan?
havent seen him in forever
there's a lot of people that say that partisan spawn more at local, i've had like 5 raids and 2 of them had partisan, switched to bsg servers after that and no more partisan
if you don't believe it then just don't kaboom
Last few kills he just walked past me like he don't care before before tapping him
theres lots of people who say a lot of things, but anecdotes =/= evidence
given how much this game is datamined, I'm fairly certain if it was true, there would be evidence in datamined format
about how local and bsg servers have different rates
sure, but in my experience i had way more partisans in my local raids then bsg raids
that's up to you if you wanna run local or bsg
im about to run 5 million raids on local
and the second i get a boss im gonna say bsg doesnt spawn shit
but ill never run bsg for those 5 million raids
1000% partisan spawns very frequently on local
YOU spawn more on local
no u
but i legit just did a lighthouse local and found a scav with one of his reduced duration grenades lol
still 15%
DO THE GOONS DANCE
What's a good spot for Plexiglass
GROUND ZERO

now im gonna wait 5 minutes
What avbout Insulating tape
GROUND ZERO
ground one
Probably oli?
the camp in interchange
unless they have nerfed it severely
same for plexiglass probs
ground zero = goat for all construction mats
streets are also good
I got head eyes by a kaban sniper after clearing the compound, it sucked
my bad evil quest me is not me
im so bad with kaban I swear
i'm level 67 rellinou rn
Where in gz
underground has 5 million technical crates and stufferz
terragroup office and the one with the agl has like 5 million cabinets
i make up for me being so bad w kaban
dw
There are two now, this is getting out of hand
youre getting out of hand
there are four
im beginning to think Rellinou is like a Mr Frundle situation
throw grenade at the compound to force the ags, go left into the container and camp there. And no matter what, avoid killing Kaban until most of them are dead, let them push you into the container or take slowly potshots
and make sure to have a big boy weapon
kaban is so fat he eats the bullets you fire @ the guards
thats how I do him, died once though
died because the grenade hit kaban and killed him
lol
that's how you what him
Searched every crate below
Not a single Plexiglass or Tape
now search the drawers
you can get unlucky pal
it's not a guarantee
that's what's happening WITH ME
RIGHT NOW
I BOUGHT THE NIKITA VOICE PACK
I can ice kaban fine, my problem is that im a dumbass and start looting without properly killing the snipers
or they head eyes me as soon as they peek me
Well not unlucky now
Just got Abandoned marked off a scav
so about the interchange runs that I was talking about, your strat kinda worked, I spawned infront of one and killed 2 at the front of the mall and another at power, but never found my 5th one and ran out of time and sj6
lol its funny how slow the 9x39 is
idk pretty sure a transite counts as a survival
it really is,
Shit man, you gotta lead your shots at like 40 meters
Abysmally slow
ive been putting off the mod 4 task
AS VAL I still think is better than mod4
running out of tasks
Yeah close range its nice
Oh don't do that lmao
doesnt it have better over heat stat too
I don't loot boss kills until I'm sure anything likely to shoot me is dead
oh yea I know what to do, I just get lost in the sauce
especially since they normally dont show up until like 1-2 minutes after the guards are even dead
no way for me to 'make sure' they're all dead since I cant get on the roof
yeah these 200m shots are fun with this vss
have to shoot into the next time zone sometimes
so are the "Scavs" on Customs rn essentially just bodyguards? or is this event not on PVE? Sorry if im asking stupid questions lol
yeah I think they're all guards
not stupid, but all scavs are boss guards now on customs
get a lot of good ammo if you can survive the onslaught
it was all pp crap for me, I gave up on it
BT is solid enough for PVE i thinkbut yeah its not great or anything
BT is actually the best because tracers make the game look like star wars
i would put tracers in like an m249 fuck it
at least 1 per every 3 m855a1 or something actually good lmao
soon
whats t3 ammo
ya I love using bcp, save the rest for somewhere where it matters
sorry i come from more civilized eshooters where you just use tier 1-6 to discuss ammo and armor tiers instead of shit like 46.79420 pen with long barrel
'anything with 30-39 pen
sorry you cant handle someone not agreeing with you. You should work on that
that's tier 3
icebreaker
weird. why would anyone call it that
pretty common in other games
lmao
i mean other games dont have complex pen systems
seems weird to over simplify it
other games do, they just don't have players who prop themselves up on it for every discussion
90% of the time you don't have games with as specific pen values either
sure?
The over simplification works if you understand it a bit
so something like 39 pen matters in tarkov, but doesn't exist in another game
again, not tarkov levels
sure, i dont understand it cause I know the pen system fairly well
why would i bother explaining the sheer complexity of a system
yeah for example. tbh I think I'll be using probably mostly mp7 in icebreaker too if it actually works there
simplified terms yeah i mean i get it
first integer
I've heard the advice before from another person and I'll pass it on: just block him. Seriously, you won't lose anything of value.
level is ltierally just a synonym for tier
how about
hm, not a bad explanation
make sense. I get you
grenade does so much limb damage
grenades dont pen, armor system doesnt count for it
it works just fine to call it tiers or levels or whatever and simpify it down to the first interger because the 2nd interger often has no use case except for in situations where that second interger is close to pushing the first over the old value
concussive damage, no need to pen :)
yeah second integer is just for slightly higher percent chance to pen above
not everyone is a snowflake who cant stand someone not agreeing withg everything they say
grow up
do frag grenades do actually much concussion damage? I'd just imagine they screw up your limbs and close enough one of your vitals at minimum is gonna get wrecked
yeah, your plates are not helping lol
seriously reserve needs glukhar
correct, so there's no need to talk about it
just aint the same without
im being sarcastic
unless you're doing something like sniping
Yeah I get you.
but that's why i geenrally say t3 ammo
im just gonna fucking shoot my fucking foot until goons decide to spawn
I can work with that explination. Thanks. Also thanks for not being a snowflake like slav lol
it's also just good to use, scavs rarely have t3, and MOST boss guards have t3-4, which if using t3, will still zero out and kill a t4 plate carrier within a few seconds anyways
so many people get offended by people questioning what they say
what makes ammo good is the gun and fire rate, not the ammo- what's good or bad changes per gun
- you can just dome like a boss
an SA-58 just is going to have different ammo preference than an SR-25
ammo is more of a factor then a guns fire rate
not always when considering what ammo to use
a guns fire rate will make worse ammo like t3 be more effective because of the volume of bullets
yes
its why higher fire rate guns have lower pen valuies
yeah, so for stuff like 308, where the ammo is spread among many guns
it varies based on rifle, not so much ammo
before the NL 545 ammo was balaced around 700-750 fire rate
hence why it weas better then 556
but now thats out the window and 545 is just better lol
now BT is just eh
below 40 pen ammo has always been bad ammo
lots of factors for what ammo is good
categorically, sure
i think in practice, not really
penning class 4 has always been the minium pen
I feel like ammo choice in tarkov matters more than the gun when comparing to other games
I agree
Although fire rate is usually the decider is close quarters at least
ammo is def the most important factor to a gun
t4 might be min pen, but with certain ammo you don't NEED t4 pen. you just need... an extra high tier3 bullet
Yeh
i'd say anything from 35-40 is going to be your 'decent' ammo.
Like if you have an ak101 with m855a1 and a hk416 with m855 my money is on the 416
40-49 is good, and 50+ is fantastic
sure, but I prefer my black and white terms. Blow 40 is jsut bad
depending on use case
with how easy it is to get above 40 for most guns, it shouldnt be considered
higher pen can have the issue that 995 has: damage doesn't always 1tap in dome
unless still unlockling of course
I think while ammo is usually the deciding factor for sure fire rate is still important
eh i say 10-20 is shit, 30-40 is decent, 40 is golden standard, and 50+ is the glorious amazing (for pen values)
if im just questing and looting honestly PS is fine but then i have to be aware that im fucked if someone has a visor or something
995 my beloathed
30-40 is decent. But again, rather not steer people that way and get them to get good ammo crafts and unlocks
ps is great... if you have an automatic weapon
decent but can always be better is the best advice to give
ive been wondering has anyone seen the italian cheese man ? cause i havent seen him in like 60 raids
most people just need a stopgap ammo while they get better stuff again
but to a dude who can only think in binary, its useless to try and explain any of this
better to just block
okay you're just an asshole
try going to woods cultist bunker and waiting a few min and seeing if he comes and sets up traps outside
relax
Yeh Iβve only just got my hands on 7n40
yeah
7n40, the best staple ammo of all time
gd idea
I dont agree with someone opinoon 100%? No one cares
wish i could craft it
7n40 + ak12 is hot
ye
Yeh I just used that combo on reserve
really is
if i had to choose only one combo it'd be that
hard to sday for me
its your funeral, I mean no sane person is gonna go "bt sucks" unless they literally think that either ammo is toptier or it sucks
Where can I go to farm ammo thatβs not labs or streets
sr25 anf m80a1 or mr with 5a1 are my two
Yeh Iβve just started crafting m80a1
BT does suck. comparatively to the rest of it's caliber, it sits dead in the middle
it's not bad.
brother, your the only person here with an issue. Grtow up
interchange batya camps woods usec camp / batya camps train depot
but 37 pen ain't gonna do much
Ok thanks
theres more spots probably but idk them all
Why use BT when BP is basically free
BT is good if you use.... like, the NLGP
Ive done very well with BT
There is SO much BP
Where
Kollontay Kaban guards
Clear both easily 300 rounds of BP per raid
ah fair thanks
np
anyone wanna be my third questing
i got ton of bp because I kept using bt for most things
since most things do not require more than bt, shit round and all
wouldnt deal with killa or tagilla with bt though, that much I can give
they die to bt just fine
ha
THEYRE FUCKING HERE
I was farming tag when I was doing secured permitter with 855 lol
did you win?
my fault for not paying attention but i was falling asleep at the monitor
I did the fuckin dance. Should have expected it
that's all that matters to me
I ran 4 shoreline raids before doing woods
it makes them spawn, I dont pick the map
i want to conclude both even faster than that
Da heck is happening

the one time im fucking falling asleep
at my monitor half assed
i see orange tracers through my fucking FACE
lock in twin
slav is upset I didnt agree with him and is telling everyone to block me. The usual
Classic
Just wake up lmao
im sitting here watching spicee do re9 speedruns
FUCK YOU
I BET YOU CALLED IN BIG PIPE
IE care center resets
... Maybeh
"hey rellinou is half asleep right now wouldn't it be funny"
bought goons support from lightkeeper
lol
FUCK WOODS
I didn't horde secure cassettes and blue folders for nothing
tbh I wouldn't run any other weapon at that caliber at least anymore
time to go 50 million raids without seeing them again
Least you didn't try fighting goons with a Mjolnir and fmj at 30 meters getting aim punched a bunch by m62 blackout
but it sounds like u won
oh nvm
That was not pleasant
also doesnt help he didnt reload
Asshats rushed down at from weather station out of the blue, Bagpipe trying to snipe me with an mp7
I haven't died to the goons in so long
this is such a shit feeling
it woke me tf up
but now i feel like actual shit
I'm calling him bagpipe from now
its easy to die them when you get wrong spawn in woods, and now maybe in lighthouse
no it's just like
I think my secondary was a shotgun too
regardless of map
I had NO full auto capability
i dont get folded by them bc im usually careful about it
but like
i got folded
big pipe bent me over right there
nah in woods you can get folded with the wrong spawn, straight up
because big pipe opens on you when you spawn in woods
and if you dont realize instantly whats happening and run into correct direction, gg
I killed the goons w no armor on in woods, when doing that quest to kill pmc's w no armor on
I put down knight and pipe in that raid, birdeye was being a bitch so I left him. Iwasnt going to hunt him down. He did chase me a little and took a few pot shots
I just waited behind a tree until they rushed like lemmings
they can be annoying but they're not so bad most of the time
mhm
i killed knight
so all i care about is killing big pipe and birdeye
only issue is knight never runs away
so it's a full kill squad
mhm
shadow of tagilla just taked like 30 shots of m80a1 is that normal cause that dont feel right to me
3 hours of sleep again
tanked*
so it can be if you missed and hit arms enough
i just wanna finish stray dogs bc guide/psycho sniper are a joke of a quest
gas piston gets a short barrel
well im never using a sa58 again or 762.51
i normaly use m993
you didnt stand and trade with him right?
I normally take half of a 20 rounder to kill him with m80a1
sounds about right
what gun u use ?
I would only use m61 or or m993 on shadow tbh, no point in going budget in such a high risk area
ahh, that's based
w the ak 308
ahh that guns different
Sa58 or ak308
guess I'll be running 5.45x39 once again for a while
or m60 if you want to bring on the dakka
5.45 is my go to round atm because of its abundance.
idk what I would use if I went back to labrys
il try the 308 next then i 2 of them chillin
prob m4 995
308 is just lovely, and it had gotten buffed a bit more recently
55 type of ammo is my go to is reliable
I pretty much only use 308 for shagilla
i shoot more 308 then anything righjt now
556
sr25 and rsass
I mean ak
