wendy is like 170k base

full wendy with FS is 220k which is more expensive than the altyn rn

[dark wyvern]

doesnt really matter on the fs because you will get hit head on 95% of the times if fs is hit

[tardy crescent]

Oh yeah screw buying the helmet itself from traders

[blissful ibex]

i mean if you find it or barter yeah

[tardy crescent]

But if I want to run a FS which is admittedly rare I'll use the wendy

Either I raw dog it with a boonie or use the TK+Slaap

[blissful ibex]

run the multihit and a tc800, you only miss out on ear protection

[tardy crescent]

If I find a multihit in raid I'll use it on whatever

[blissful ibex]

do you not have samples done?

this is my kit rn lmao

[tardy crescent]

Meldonin is hitting hard

[blissful ibex]

dayum

[tardy crescent]

The last stim I need and its nowhere to be seen

[dark wyvern]

i had to go to labs to get it

[blissful ibex]

have you done terragroup employee on labs? or have black

[tardy crescent]

I'm not missing out on much anyway so I'm not bothered

I've not really grinded for meldonin or any of the others for samples

[blissful ibex]

me neither, i found all of mine randomly

[tardy crescent]

I had one a while ago but forgot about it and mindlessly sold it

[blissful ibex]

plus ive been holding onto stims since start of wipe

[tardy crescent]

Once I hit 30 the motivation to do any quests just vanished

[blissful ibex]

@floral zephyr

[blissful ibex]

im quest locked behind punisher and level pretty much

[tardy crescent]

I don't bother with punisher anymore

I can't stand using the 74u

[blissful ibex]

im on pun 6

dont feel like running svd

[tardy crescent]

I love the svd

I've tried getting the scav kills with the 74u

But I hardly go customs anymore and when I do its for pvp so I just elect to not bring a 74u

[bold kernel]

anyone wanna play im new

[blissful ibex]

find an open beginners voice, you can probably find some people your skill level and probably a sherpa in the making

[floral zephyr]

thank u

[blissful ibex]

np

[pale marlin]

any flashlight I can put on my ump at LL1 ? ty

[tardy crescent]

Skier should have a couple

and maybe mechanic and peacekeeper?

[ornate palm]

is gzhel worth repairing?

[tardy crescent]

If you can't replace it one repair at 65 max dura should be fine

this one ^

flashlight laser combo

[pale marlin]

yea just saw it ty 😮 its kinda costly is it worth it over the one peacekeeper sell ?

[topaz forge]

which one does he sell?

idr

[winged pier]

anyone wanna play

[pale marlin]

ultrafire wf5018

[topaz forge]

ohh just a flashlight

id recommend a combo so you can have a laser available too, its really helpful for hipfire

but that one works too

if you dont want to spend the extra money, the plain flashlight will be fine

[pale marlin]

2 questions.. 1) does the laser in this game actually gives better hipfire stats or it just helps ? 2) does the flashlight in the laser combo has more lighting like does it blind more ?

[topaz forge]

yes, a laser gives you a tighter hipfire spread when its turned on

some flashlights are slightly brighter or dimmer, for most of them i dont believe there is a big difference

[pale marlin]

i just feel I saw some huge diff between some flashlights from the little experience i have XD

T is to activate flashlight but whats the keybind for laser 😮 ? cant find it lmao

[topaz forge]

1 sec lemme find the keybind

find "switch tactical device mode"

thats how you change between the modes

the one i just showed you has 3 modes, flashlight, flashlight + laser, and laser

[pale marlin]

ohh u cant have flashlight and laser at same time ?

ohh mb XD

amazing will try that tyu

[topaz forge]

👍

[pale marlin]

do you guys know if a website exist about different weapon builds ?

[ornate palm]

i cant remember can you wear headphones with the Zsh

[pale marlin]

depending on headphoones i thinik

[royal meadow]

could anybody help me with some tasks

[ornate palm]

okay ty

[bold kernel]

can anyone help me wit jaegar quest on woods?

[cloud marsh]

What quest?

Unlocking him?

[bold kernel]

I would also like help finding Jeager

[heavy vigil]

i need help doing the shoreline satellites quest

[tepid garnet]

You are level 35

[bold kernel]

And?

[late fiber]

bruh i got jaeger at lvl 5💀

[tepid garnet]

Do you actually need help getting jaegers note? Because I can help but i thought you were joking.

[bold kernel]

I’m being 100% serious, I’m also not on right now tho.

[tepid garnet]

Ah alright

[crimson arrow]

Would someone be willing to help me get through woods "search mission" quest? I am completely lost on woods & also have trouble extracting

[bold kernel]

you talked about this a week or two ago still haven’t? 😂

Nope

why don’t you just play a dedicated no jaegar run this wipe atp?

[timber imp]

Just started playing trying to find some peeps to run around with and help me learn customs!

[ruby adder]

May aswell do that tbh, most of the tasks Jaeger gives out isn't necessarily achievable by a selection of the players 😄

[bold kernel]

it definitely is for him haha level 35 takes questing effort

not something you can usually get through shear raiding

[bold kernel]

Maybe I should, how does one get Kappa without Jeager tho, pretty sure some of his quests are needed to unlock other quests from different traders

[bold kernel]

yes

i need help finding him

[cobalt oak]

Scavs and rogues count as any target, right?

[blissful ibex]

no

[blissful ibex]

yes

[ornate palm]

ty

[cobalt oak]

lol, this mission end up being easier than the one before it

for how much I could sell this on the flea?

[bold kernel]

can't put it on flea

[blissful ibex]

none

[cobalt oak]

oh, ok lol

[bold kernel]

just use it tbh

[cobalt oak]

Gonna use it for stash management

I dont think I will ever use it in a raid, even tho I have 2 of those

[bold kernel]

works too haha i just put my kits in it tbh helps getting ready for a raid

[cobalt oak]

tbh I never have any kit ready most of times, I just have the gun, the other things I usually buy

[winged pier]

any one wanna play i am new

[swift flame]

i have 2 quests on customs if anyones willing to help

[raw remnant]

getting 523 errors on POST from the launcher

[pastel kiln]

Where do i make a report if i got tked in a vc?

[lilac galleon]

I’m new to the game and I was wondering where I would go to find people to duo with and show me the ropes

[tardy crescent]

Don't be scared to run the couch, they aren't that expensive and really easy to get on traders

[ruby adder]

Prapor LL2 & A task that follows one of the punisher tasks iirc

Just for the barter, so it isn't hard to get on traders tbh

[bold kernel]

you just have the mark the helicopter at lighthouse

[woeful spruce]

You can ask questions here and look for teammates willing to help you at #pvp-lfg

[inner mountain]

are grenade kills always headshots?

@lilac galleon are you on na?

[lilac galleon]

Not on tarkov currently

[inner mountain]

ah ok

[lilac galleon]

I’m finishing a round of valo

[unreal horizon]

yes

same with mounted grenade launchers

[inner mountain]

ah ok I killed 3 of reshalas boys with a nade

thought it was funny

if anyone needs helps learning and youre on west eu or na I have a bit of time to show some basics let me know

[lilac galleon]

If you can wait a bit I’d like to

[inner mountain]

[lilac galleon]

[inner mountain]

[honest osprey]

lfg trying to task every map lvl 20 2nd wipe whos down ?

Message #pvp-lfg-na

[lilac galleon]

I’m ready when you are

[lime yoke]

Is the scav case worth it if I would have to buy most of the stuff? 😂

[vapid flume]

I forget a medkit and so I kill 4 scavs loot 4 bags and NONE OF THEM had any medical things, I die to a little light bleed

[unreal horizon]

its not worth it but its fun

[whole thistle]

Lesson learned

[pale marlin]

hey Im trying to change free look keybind to alt but I cant select holding Alt like it was holding MMB by default.. any idea how ? thanks

[sacred heron]

can somebody help me out, i have the game installed on my nvme drive and for some reason it is utilizing my hdd

[mint light]

set to continuous

[pale marlin]

the option is greyed out for this keybind 😮

[whole thistle]

Might just be because it's alt

[leaden wigeon]

does anyone know why I can't unlock the "Samples" Peacekeeper task in Tarkov?

[pale marlin]

i tried with K to test same problem

[jolly otter]

I need help with the rogue farming route on Lighthouse pls. How do i get that Rogue on Building 1 to his gun ? The one in the back. The one in the front i can kill everytime. Everytime i leave Building 1 i look at the roof but he is not there. Then i proceed towards Northern Extract and he shoots me lol

[mint light]

why do u not want it on middle mouse

[pale marlin]

cuz its a trash keybind imo MMB could be use by so many other stuff imo

like activating my flashlight for example

[mint light]

lol

[pale marlin]

alt is just the standard keybind for this anyway

so im used to it

mmb feels weird af

[mint light]

there are a lot of keybinds that require u to hold alt

[ripe temple]

Did you finish Anesthesia

[leaden wigeon]

as you sent that I finally figured it out, thank you!

[pale marlin]

which one Im curious still new 😛

also how do I build guns preset I have workbench lvl 1

[whole thistle]

Right click gun edit preset

[pale marlin]

niiiice thank you !

[timber imp]

im pretty new ive only done a few raids looking for some peeps to play with on customs

[pale marlin]

is having 3 scav junk box too much ?

[whole thistle]

I only ever have 1 or 2

[pale marlin]

ok cuz I dont have flea yet so cant sell my surplus xD

[leaden mirage]

Could someone help me trim down what keys are good and bad?

[bold kernel]

nice ksm key

they go for quite a bit on flea

[leaden mirage]

yeah but the fee is also crazy lol

[mint light]

i killed a kappa gamer

i lied

i killed everyone but him

he was murdered by @dire folio

[dire folio]

1 tapped

[mint light]

they had sks with bp drums

as val so good

[dire folio]

nice

[mint light]

the person that killed you

and i murdered him

[dire folio]

good

why are we texting if we in vc together

also did you extract?

[topaz forge]

scroll through the keybinds list, theres a lot

[pale marlin]

yea I guess ur right damnit I need to find another keybind lmao

[topaz forge]

you can also rebind all of the keys that require you to hold alt

time consuming but might be worth, not all of them are super useful

[pale marlin]

yea maybe ur right actually...

ill have to think about it !

[topaz forge]

and the ones that are useful you can set to other things

[pale marlin]

any examples of useful ones ?

[topaz forge]

id need to look at the default controls before i could say for certain, ive already rebound mine so im not sure which ones require alt to be held by default

[whole thistle]

Bind check extract to single tap o

Unbind emergency reload

[pale marlin]

good ideas !

[topaz forge]

fold stock can be unbound

[mint light]

i like the valorant gun

[topaz forge]

sidestep is alright but you can unbind it if you want

[whole thistle]

Why though

There's no point

[topaz forge]

both blindfires are nearly useless now since you cant move while aiming

[whole thistle]

Unless you're using the keys for something else idk why you'd unbind things

[mint light]

@sharp river

[topaz forge]

hes trying to free up alt for freelook

[mint light]

gg

[topaz forge]

it doesnt work unless all the alt + whatever keybinds are gone

[whole thistle]

He said it didn't even work on K

I think it's just a weird rule

[topaz forge]

ohh is it one of those keybinds

fuck

if thats the case then its just not gonna work anywhere but mmb, youll just have to get used to that lol @pale marlin

[pale marlin]

dammmn feels bad I need to find a good keybind to activate my flashlight then lmao

[topaz forge]

i like z for that

[pale marlin]

I prone with Z :/

[whole thistle]

Mouse buttons 4

[pale marlin]

ahhh E

[whole thistle]

The backward side button

[pale marlin]

Il dumb lmao

[topaz forge]

E should be lean

[pale marlin]

i changed my lean to mouse side buttons

[topaz forge]

hmm

[pale marlin]

so e is perfect lmao never thought of it

[topaz forge]

i guess that works for tarkov

[pale marlin]

im just used to it always did it this way

on togglw **

in fact E for melee now and Q for flash perfect 😄 thanks guys

[topaz forge]

i & many others have found controls like that being on the mouse to disrupt aim but thats mostly in games where you will be leaning a lot differently than tarkov

melee really isnt useful at all

[whole thistle]

You do not need melee that often lol

[topaz forge]

i wouldnt put that on e

[pale marlin]

true xD

[topaz forge]

i have my melee on comma lol

[whole thistle]

Flashes aren't used often either and you can just use them with g

[topaz forge]

flashlight

[whole thistle]

Oh true

[pale marlin]

also for lean on mouse it doesnt fuck my aim cuz its toggle

[topaz forge]

yea but to toggle it off youd still have to press it, you just wont do that mid gunfire in tarkov much

like in siege its an awful place to put lean

[pale marlin]

i guess im.just used to it xD

[topaz forge]

but probably fine for tarkov

[whole thistle]

I have lean in toggle

[pale marlin]

its so much easier for me

[sharp river]

@mint light you just kill me on customs?

[mint light]

yeah

as val

[sharp river]

[mint light]

i left ur cool gun

[sharp river]

gg

[mint light]

dont worry

[sharp river]

wasnt insured

[mint light]

it was very cool

sks with drum

[dire folio]

So sad

[sharp river]

my teammate brought it to me

yeah

[bold kernel]

w teammate

[mint light]

then i try to loot body and man at skeleton shooted me so i have to kill him!!!

[dire folio]

Skelton man killed me

[sharp river]

oh wait was he not with you?

the guy that killed apollo

[mint light]

we not at skeleton

me and cat shoota you

[dire folio]

I go booo

P

On head

[sharp river]

oh okay lol

[dire folio]

I was behind max

By the brick wall

[sharp river]

ah

[eternal pivot]

Is the grizzly medkit thing good?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[sharp river]

i mean yes. its everything in one (minus a surv kit)

i personally use it in my stash if i forget to heal post raid

[eternal pivot]

I got one a little above half off a scav lmao

[mint light]

i bring them in raid

because i am cool

[ember sierra]

i am out of armor to wear should i keep buying 1 everytime i die?

[sharp river]

you could not wear any and take one off a scav

[frail pewter]

they're useful because as Zapwag said, they do everything any other meds do except heal a blacked limb. Only issue is that it has a lot longer use time than other meds

[slate copper]

help i cant do anything

[dawn geyser]

Hit escape

[slate copper]

i tryed

i pressed something and the mouses just did that

nothing works in game

[mint light]

[frosty sphinx]

how do i do quest?

[mint light]

thats very broad

[frosty sphinx]

my b cuh

where do i find quests

[dawn geyser]

Go to a trader, tasks tab?

Can't tell if trolling

[frosty sphinx]

dude no

i havent played this game in a long time

and even then

i never did one of the quests cuz i was trying to learn the game

[sharp river]

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

[frosty sphinx]

i still shouldnt even be doing them yet

because i dont remember the basics of the game

[ripe temple]

the beginner quests are very simple

[frosty sphinx]

not simple enough.

i die instnatly

[bold kernel]

it does be like that

[dawn geyser]

What map was that?

[drifting jolt]

quests help you learn teh game, bc quests take you to different places most times

[frosty sphinx]

factory

its the only map i know how to extract from

[bold kernel]

well i see how you die 30 seconds off spawn haha

all good though dying means nothing but some lost gear and i guess time

[frosty sphinx]

why, is factory bad?

[bold kernel]

well for a beginner yes

it’s good for pvp and what not but you develop those skills over time naturally

i would recommend questing and getting to know the maps you have your quests on tbh

whether through offline raids or using online maps

[drifting jolt]

there's almost no money to be made... youll probably get killed by the chad that's in there to wipe the lobby

[frosty sphinx]

no specific maps

[frosty sphinx]

lmao

i survive 60% of the time tho

[drifting jolt]

and make peanuts

talk to @lilac ferry ... all he does is scav factory

[lilac ferry]

whut

[drifting jolt]

you can read cant ya?! lol

[lilac ferry]

it's too much effort

[lilac ferry]

google ''mapgenie'' then repeat until you know where to extract, takes time. Scav on factory early for quick cash/farming rep, easiest to learn map. Don't PMC factory early because you will hate the game. Obtain some money, get lv15 then buy Flechettes and cheap shotguns, try factory PMC again etc

Lv38 right now and all I know is Woods, Customs, Factory, Interchange & Shoreline idrc about the rest 🥴

[frosty sphinx]

im on it rn actually lmao

[lilac ferry]

but yes opinions may differ

[frosty sphinx]

literally just tabbed off of it cuz i heard the discord noti

[lilac ferry]

there's 3 weapon boxes nobody checks and 1 big weapon box, 1 safe room in Office that people tend to skip

I'd just run factory until you know a good running path and you have the map looted in 5-7 mins. then when you think you know the map ''a bit'' check mapgenie factory and see if all ''Loot spots'' are the ones you know

the amount of people who skip the weapon cases is ridiculous

jackets for fuckall expensive keys but u need luck, etc. Factory aint that bad especially not for beginners because it shows you how horribly painful this game can be but you'll learn the spawns and expect where people walk, etc etc. Just need to put in a lot of hours in this game until it becomes a lot of ''fun''

[tepid mist]

if im crafting on workbench and i turn generator off does it reset the timer for the item or will it resume where it lost power

[edgy plover]

it will actually make progress, albeit painfully slow progress. Gas is technically only needed to begin crafts in the workbench

[frosty sphinx]

how do i steady a scope?

[warm rapids]

shift

oh wait

no

[frosty sphinx]

thank you

[edgy plover]

source: DanExert testing video on Youtube

[outer mulch]

is there a way i can cheese the spending amount lol

that's a lot of fucken money that i don't really have rn and i need him ll2 for a quest that's currently holding me way back

[limber cliff]

ty

[outer mulch]

i could just convert a bunch of rubles to USD but i can't ever change it back

[mint light]

buy usd

ur gonna need it

[outer mulch]

for what

[mint light]

peacekeeper sells the best everything

and tasks need usd

[outer mulch]

hm

[mint light]

money converted is not money lost

[edgy plover]

Anything sold by PK, which is best stuff. Dollars are pretty much just as useful as roubles

[outer mulch]

alright

ig it just feels lost because beeg number now small lol

:(

[drifting jolt]

take all the flashlights you find off scavs, and sell them, and other gun mods, to him

and you can collect the brown and black knives and barter for a UMP or mp5 from him, and then sell back the gun to him

[outer mulch]

ive always collected the knives but i didn't think about selling it back to him 👀 big brain

wait does that count as money spent?

[lilac ferry]

selling and buying, yes

[ripe temple]

selling stuff counts

[lilac ferry]

some people even buy mags and then sell it but I just bought the USD with rubles

[ripe temple]

i leveled up my jaeger by primarily selling knives to him

[lilac ferry]

he sells a bunch of good stuff so

[outer mulch]

ohhhhh ok ok

good to know

also fuck you automod lol

to many os i guess

[viral prawn]

Anyone need an Rsass

[viral prawn]

it's money spent/sold

[thorn mural]

i’m broke as hell need help

[modest burrow]

I sold him all weapon attachments and you can buy something from him and instantly sell it back, you lose some money but not that much

[outer mulch]

ahhh cool cool ty

ill probably get him done tomorrow

[lilac ferry]

?

Push out ehh... not much of a chance. If you have an idea where they are then toss in some grenades and listen if you hear any movement, try to act like a scav and that might make them go downstairs but some people just diehard camp...

Push in though, just camp I guess? Chads will push in, noobs will run away... dunno

My friend needed 20 leg kills on pmcs and he layed in customs for like 30 raids. Laying down for around 25mins just waiting... some people are too determined to camp

[obtuse kelp]

anyone need help tasking

lvl 57
6300 hours

wait for them to come out. they literally have to

[dry hound]

lf someone that can help with the prapor search mission EU 🙂

[wet nimbus]

@obtuse kelp you still on 👀

[sacred bay]

Bro what the fuck is with random granade pin pull sounds?

Shit be nowhere near me yet i hear it as if they were a 1m away from me

[smoky frigate]

hello everyone

does anyone wanna play together? I am new trying to get a hang of the game

[lethal finch]

sure i can play with you im a little new myself buth know some maps and tasks

[serene reef]

Steam audio in this game is bugged and glitchy.

Tarky Devs wanted something good but supposedly didn't get any support from steam audio devs. They started implementing layers and other interesting things and it was too much for it

I never tried myself but you can deselect iirc it's called binaural sound? And see for yourself if it suits you better but I'd rather play the game as everyone around me says w/o steam audio sound is even worse

You're choosing the lesser evil

[sacred bay]

I know that it's fucked but i don't recall ever hearing nades having their pins pulled before. Like it's a very distracting noise tbh lol

[serene reef]

nope, ghost sounds are everywhere

some people have random rustling or steps

some more often hear nade pins

[woeful spruce]

The only aounds like that that i hear are keys being used across the map but its pretty rare

[fervent ermine]

Binaural audio

I think it doesn’t happen with binaural audio off

[woeful spruce]

I have that shit off

[red cliff]

my fps is shit on lighthouse but not on the other maps anybody else have the same problem?

[mint light]

everyone ever

[red cliff]

so should i just try and avoid lighthouse as much as possible?

[woeful spruce]

its just not optimised well at all, i get like 40 fps there the loot is great but fps this low is infuriating so yea i avoid it unless i got quests

[red cliff]

alr ty

[serene reef]

never had that happen to me either

i only ever hear steps

[rugged badge]

classic lighouse moment

[pale marlin]

why do player scav keep killing each other on factory lmao is there a reason ? i feel like its so bad to do ruining your fence rep

just made an amazing PMC kill as a scav just to get kill by another scav while looting my guy xD

[main grove]

yo so i just starting playing and not 100% sure what i should be trying to do to start getting gear and progressing any advice?

[bold kernel]

my advice would be to do your starting quests and familiarize the maps said quests are on

[whole thistle]

The progression is leveling up your character and traders so quests are important

[slate copper]

no

[pale marlin]

focus one map at a time, to learn the maps there are amazing youtube vids 5min per map that I use a lot now and it helps SO much (im new also)

[pale zinc]

Is the ump good

[whole thistle]

Yeah it's alright

[sinful rivet]

Is vss any good

[whole thistle]

It has a ton of recoil but the ammo is kinda cracked

[sinful rivet]

So its balanced as all things should be

Wait so you cant be aggresive with it right?

[rugged badge]

cause factory is pain and suffetring as a scav

[whole thistle]

You kinda need to be

Since the recoil is really bad

[slate copper]

because they wanted the gear and they knew they could get out

[whole thistle]

Money is easier to get than scav rep

[blissful harbor]

can someone show me where the examine keybind is at ? i cant find it and i need to change it since my press isnt working

[elfin helm]

it is L by default

[blissful harbor]

oh its L ?

[blissful harbor]

no i dont mean inspect

i mean examine greyed items

[elfin helm]

MMB

[blissful harbor]

yeah hence

[elfin helm]

You cant change it

[pale zinc]

which is better, vog 17 or 25

[blissful harbor]

oh

[elfin helm]

Just buy new mouse 😄

[ripe finch]

I recommend Logitech G502 lightspeed, though you might prefer more buttons

[blissful harbor]

not enough moners atm 😔

[frozen timber]

im poor as fuck too

i would have gotten a massive payday if i would have gotten out alive last match, killed 4 pmc's with clean (and lucky) headshots, looted all their shit and then died because i got found when my pmc didnt stop moaning and whining like a bitch

i mean i would too if i got shot but i digress

how do i make my pmc be quiet aka heal a cough, or is it healable once it starts

[sturdy flame]

pop a morphine or painkiller to stop the whining

and then quietly heal

[frozen timber]

painkiller, that would be analgin then right ?

[whole thistle]

That is a painkiller

[frozen timber]

are there multiple kinds

[topaz forge]

ye analgin painkillers are all you can get for a while

theres a bunch

be sure to bring water into raid with you because painkillers dehydrate you fast

[whole thistle]

Yeah there's a lot, analgin are by far the worst too

[frozen timber]

what are some of the best heals to pack into the tiny pack thing you can bring with you then

[whole thistle]

They destroy hydration and only last like 1 minute

[whole thistle]

Ifak/afak

[slate copper]

afaks ig

[frozen timber]

what the fuck does that mean lmao

[slate copper]

ifaks heal less tho

[whole thistle]

They're the names of medkits

[topaz forge]

if you find one of those, its good to keep

[slate copper]

if you have space for a grizzly use one

[frozen timber]

aight

[ripe finch]

downside to a grizzly is the use time

[pale marlin]

yea I just feel it isnt worth it to screw your scav rep..!

[whole thistle]

No you can just cancel it

The grizzly heals you in like half a second then you just cancel the animation

[ripe finch]

doesn't change its use time

[slate copper]

not really especially with high scav rep

[topaz forge]

need to use the full use time for fractures & bleeds

[whole thistle]

You only need to wait the full use time for status effects

[topaz forge]

but yea for normal healing you cancel it

and its really fast

[pale marlin]

i mean yea if he was super high rep maybe youre right i guess

[slate copper]

not even

with like 1 or 2 scav rep

[topaz forge]

killing scavs isnt very punishing tbh

[slate copper]

you get you rep back quickly

[frozen timber]

im so demoralized after that godlike game that i dont even know if i wanna continue playing, im staring at my screen like

[ripe finch]

hmm never experimented with cancelling it. still prefer pockets with necessary meds

[pale marlin]

i wouldnt down my scav rep for 100-200k max.. so easy to get while sca rep is sooo slow

[slate copper]

doesn’t matter if its 200k if its a scav with a slick or something i dont care

[pale marlin]

lmao whats ur scav rep

[slate copper]

like -.7

[topaz forge]

i killed a pscav because he touched my raider

im at like 2.5 rep

[whole thistle]

ig if it's the only thing in your container that would be an issue lol

[pale marlin]

lmao ok u miss on a lot i think xD

[slate copper]

i just started thi

kinda

i was at like -3 scav rep

[pale marlin]

I think youre so wrong but ok

xD

[slate copper]

so ive been slowly getting it back up

[frozen timber]

is it worth to kill scavs as a scav ?

[pale marlin]

No

[topaz forge]

sometimes

[pale marlin]

benefits of high scav rep are insane

[topaz forge]

dont go on murder sprees every raid

but like

[slate copper]

so your saying its not worth it to kill a scav with gear from a chad next to the extract on factory

[topaz forge]

you can afford to kill a couple every few raids

[slate copper]

or just any good gear

[frozen timber]

but im new and ive practically wasted all my money because i keep dying

[pale marlin]

chad gear of course lmao

[slate copper]

yeah and the time where you need to do something like that is rare anyways

[pale marlin]

scav rep to 5-6 is insane benefits from what I saw

[slate copper]

im not talking about loot

im only talking about gear

so you lose .9 one raid or whatever it is then you make it back

[pale marlin]

ueah but it slows your progress sooo much

[topaz forge]

ll2 fence isnt very good if thats what youre referring to

[slate copper]

some people never even use their scav tho

and tbh its worth it but not worth the time necessary

[pale marlin]

no refering to scav rep u get then u get lab cards and air drop often as a scav and lower scav cooldown to less than 10min lmako insane value

[topaz forge]

yea

[slate copper]

labs card you can buy easily tho

[pale marlin]

lmao

[slate copper]

like 300k or something and the people that need them are rich af

[topaz forge]

i just dont need to scav most of the time

so i dont

[slate copper]

unless your new

[frozen timber]

best map to play on when new, i read somewhere that customs was good so ive been spamming that one but i dont like it, its so massive and idk where i am when i spawn. not that i would with any other map tbf

[mint light]

im too rich to scav, suffering from success

[pale marlin]

i scav always and just make money ez pz 200k in 5 min every 20min

[mint light]

customs and woods. customs is very small

[slate copper]

customs but also its a ass map

woods is also easy

[sinful rivet]

so basically im fucked i cant get gud gunds

[pale marlin]

wood is ez once you are not lost xD

[slate copper]

when you play aggressive with no gear fear you win more fights

[mint light]

shift w on top

[pale marlin]

I mainly play factory to remove that gear fear rn lol

[mint light]

factory is a noob trap

[slate copper]

yeah

and if you go in with good loot your most likely to die

[pale marlin]

nah factory is best pvp practice imo by far no time wated

[slate copper]

practice ig

[mint light]

everyone on factory is bare ass naked and braindead

where is the practice

[slate copper]

but id rather go customs

[pale marlin]

perfect for a noob then ?

[slate copper]

or something for pcp

[pale marlin]

no chad everywhere like customs and shit

[frozen timber]

oh no i suck at directions, i can get lost in a mall even though there are the "you are here" signs

[slate copper]

not much profit

[mint light]

not realistic. your fighting people with good gear on every other map

factory also makes u 0 money

[slate copper]

if you face a chad you might kill them tho

its a might

[pale marlin]

I make 200k in 5 min Im ok with it lol for now

[mint light]

how much money u have

[pale marlin]

2.5m with 2 scav box started last week and play 3 hrs a day

only factory

[pale marlin]

and full stash ofc

[slate copper]

you can make more on shoreline with little to no pvp

[pale marlin]

also dying on factory is best way to clean your stash loll jk

[mint light]

boreline

[frozen timber]

i like the sound of that, how

[slate copper]

depends where you go tho

[pale marlin]

anyway I enjoy factory also

[mint light]

woods and lighthouse are the move tbh for ez money

i dont enjoy factory because its just people doing grenadier lol

[pale marlin]

xD I love the action

[mint light]

its like labs for poor people

[pale marlin]

XD I am poor

so that fits 😄

[sturdy flame]

diy labs

[mint light]

its so easy to get grenadier done

tbh now

bp so easy to get

[slate copper]

yeah love lighthouse

[mint light]

woods is literally like walk into a building find 4 sugars and a moonshine because woods

the pvp on it sucks but the loot is good

[slate copper]

some spawns you spawn next to like abunch of lose loot spawns and duffle bags and you can get some decent stuff and just reset

[mint light]

lighthouse is less quiet but even better for making money

lighthouse has pmcs always

[slate copper]

yeah

and scav runs can still be decent depending on where you go

[mint light]

anywhere

u can go factory and walk out and make 100k

with nothing in ur scav

[pale marlin]

yea but factory takes 5min

to get that 100k

[mint light]

factory takes 15 seconds

[slate copper]

yeah

[pale marlin]

exactly why factory isnt that bad money making imo its soooo fast

[mint light]

walk to camera bunker door

[sturdy flame]

I just go on factory for the somewhat decent pvp sometimes when people do decide to bring some cool kits and also just to free up some stash space with all the gear I got

[mint light]

i go factory scav if he dosent have a bag

or a small bag

[slate copper]

its decent for like if you have like a quest gun or something you need i can’t really think of anything specifically its good for as a scav

[mint light]

i have full junk boxes and like 10m and my stash is full im suffering from success

i need to die

[sturdy flame]

i think I’m going to empty my junk boxes

[slate copper]

im suffering from bags and to much rigs and armor

[pale marlin]

how many junik boxes is too many (full)?

[mint light]

just run labs and die

[pale marlin]

XD

[mint light]

i have one junk box

[sturdy flame]

I have 12 lab access cards I should start using

[mint light]

the as val is really solid this wipe

try it out

guns cool

just crouch spray with sp-6 every single fight u get into and u kill the guy

[slate copper]

dam ive really been looking for them but cant find any or spawn with one

[sturdy flame]

I saw a YouTube video where it’s viable just to use semi with it

[mint light]

it isnt

if u want a semi auto use rfb m80

why pay 100k for an as val and use semi auto

[slate copper]

yeah

[sturdy flame]

I find too many on lighthouse in the filing cabinets

[mint light]

as val is basically 7.62 bp at 900 rpm

[slate copper]

if recoil is a problem just point fire

[mint light]

crouch spray the as val

as val this wipe gets 48 recoil and when ur crouching it feels fine

[sturdy flame]

i will try it today

😎

[mint light]

meta build it

use the barter for the tube tho

or its like 100k off flea

and use svd low mount and uh-1 or whatever sight u like

i use uh-1

and ur gonna need to spend 400k on 30 rnd mags

[sturdy flame]

you think it’s good to bring to labs?

[slate copper]

yeah

i see everyone running it on labs

[mint light]

its one of the few guns u see on labs

[sturdy flame]

going to make two val kits and see how quick I lose them

[mint light]

as val, sa58, m4a1, rd704, mk47

thats the only guns on labs

[sturdy flame]

I have a stock mutant I could do something with

tons of bp

[mint light]

mutant is so customizable and sooo fun

[pale marlin]

any way to open all bags I have inside bags ?

[mint light]

do u want to see my builds?

[sturdy flame]

yes please it would be an honour

[pale marlin]

how much for that full build ?

[sturdy flame]

going to save these since I have all those parts too, I have too many cqr grips

or whatever it’s called

[mint light]

cqr only goes on certain handguards

also

the mutant feels better than rd704

dosent matter what stats say

[sturdy flame]

im going to go absolutely kitted on my first labs raid

not going offline or anything

Just raw

[mint light]

@sturdy flame

this is my as val

ive started to put laser on left tho

feels better

i would use it on cqb maps only

no woods no shoreline

customs reserve and labs

for the rotor 43 buffer tube do the mechanic 2 barter, otherwise its 100k

[sturdy flame]

gotcha

appreciate the help

[mint light]

its a very good gun and something fun and different, just gotta know ur limits

if i get into a fight i slam crouch

recoil is high on it

[sand vapor]

i have 750k roubles

but when i want to buy anything they say i have 0 lol;

[woeful spruce]

did you check the blue box at the bottom of the screen saying "fill items" its uncheked by default for some mysterious reason lol

[sand vapor]

yea i had it

guess it was a bug

had to drag money manually again

[sinful rivet]

Wich gun or ammo had thr biggest nerf in history of eft

[modest lava]

why do people use the golden star over vaseline or ibuprofen?

[sinful rivet]

Idk ask them

[mystic phoenix]

duration, and it replenishes some of the energy cost back to you, levels up metabolism quickly too, and it has 10 uses so for whatever reason if you have to keep popping it you dont run out

[edgy plover]

Also a lot of people use it down to 1/10 uses, then use it in the propital craft

[mystic phoenix]

^

[sinful rivet]

So it heaven for the tryhards

[mystic phoenix]

i wouldnt say try hards, they are relatively cheap and easy to find and its just a QOL kinda thing

[sinful rivet]

Cool

[modest lava]

cheap? its 100 k on the flea rn, though yeah theyre not too rare

[mystic phoenix]

i mean thats 10k a use

[sinful rivet]

But i think that cheese plus bandages plus esmatch is op

[mystic phoenix]

not that expensive

[mint light]

u can heal two arms and a leg

[modest lava]

yeah i agree actually not bad

[mystic phoenix]

and like the other dude said when its one use left you can use it for propital craft and make like 30k profit i believe

not too sure i dont really craft stuff

[sinful rivet]

Why i there no balls hitpoint in this game

Like fr

Think how good would that be

[edgy plover]

If you use the goldenstar and ibuprofen down to 1 use - you get 7 propital from it. 1 goldenstar use (10k) +1 ibu use (5k) +pile of meds (10k) gets you 140k worth of propital. ~115k profit

[gentle perch]

Anyone know what audio some of the top streams use because they seem to hear sounds that i don't xd

[vapid flume]

can I make any cash of this thing?

or is it just delete it

[pale zinc]

Good hatchet run?

[vapid flume]

hmmm

I wonder

ANy hatchet run that you survive is a plus, you made bank off this one too

[edgy plover]

You can't sell it

[vapid flume]

so just delete it?

[whole thistle]

No

[drifting gust]

Can someone help me with the Disease History task if they have the key?

[winged pier]

anyone wanna play am kinda new

[vapid flume]

guy 60m away? As hes being shot? fired only one shot? I cant win

[proper forum]

If I find an item in raid a buddy needs (who is with me in the same raid) can I drop it for him in that raid? For example flash drive? If I bring it from my stash I can´t, I know that.

[vapid flume]

Yes

[viral prawn]

yes, if it's found in raid you can drop it in the same raid still

[proper forum]

ok, thx, good to know

[vapid flume]

5.45 is the worst ckinf ammo in the game

realistic game fs

[swift quartz]

anyone need help hmu

5.45 is good if u get roght ammo

[woeful spruce]

545 good if youre on a real budget but still want to be able to full auto and defeat up to class 4

the higher pen 545 is annoying cause of low damage

[vapid flume]

bt, hit this dude with like class 4 armor in the legs like 4 times and the and arms and thorax alot too and he just hit me in the legs a few times and I die

[meager shell]

Good or bad key?

[swift quartz]

hmm perhaps but thats just ammo differences

[vapid flume]

awaiting session start for like 4 minutes?

[mint light]

lol

[bold kernel]

w

[woeful spruce]

can be

has a chance for inteligence spawn

[meager shell]

so just bring it with me and open if im there?

[woeful spruce]

yea, i wouldnt go out of my way to go use it but if youre there anyway its good to ckeck

[woeful spruce]

you might need to alt+f4

[tribal sedge]

who else is also still looking for toothpaste at level 9

nice

[woeful spruce]

its often found in medical containers, you can try to loot for example the military base on woods on a scav to get it

[fervent ermine]

Isn’t it a 2 safe key

Why not check it

[woeful spruce]

nah, 2 filing cabinets+intel spwn

[fervent ermine]

I found 2 in one raid yesterday

I find a lot tbh

A lot

Well i do loot safes whenever i can

Oh yeah, have yet to find one

Last wipe i only found one

I have gotten a red keycard but no intel from reserve

Reserve had op loot when was released, then removed it, boss spawn chance low asf now, and raiders barely spawn in bunker

[heady coral]
