Hi, looking for someone who grows with

Friend from the west

Our own land/counteraction

[bold kernel]

I got a i7 7700K and 16GB
Is it worth getting a CPU upgrade or RAM upgrade?

[topaz forge]

at least do friend from the west

so you can get pk3

[topaz forge]

ram upgrade absolutely

32gb is so good

[mint light]

@topaz forge want to do offline

[topaz forge]

maybe soon

[bold kernel]

No keep them

[rose skiff]

Can you buy operating room key never seems to exist when I look for it on flea

[night finch]

is it still worth to upgrade hideout?

[limber cliff]

yes

[stiff bobcat]

Yes everything but bitcoin farm and solar is worth it still

[frosty coral]

as a mid tier player is there a good med lvl build for a 7.62x51 gun

what gun should i buy and build to use m80 with

[mint light]

rfb

[unreal horizon]

probably rfb, you could try making an SR preset but i dont think you will have many parts to choose from

[tender cairn]

i love when therapist doesn't heal me even though i pay her

[unreal horizon]

W

[merry cave]

could i get a hand sorting my junk boxes? no idea what i should be holding on to

[unreal horizon]

yeah send a screenshot

ill highlight stuff

[frosty coral]

can someone send me or help me figure out how to make a mid tier build for the rfb

idk wat to buy

[topaz forge]

thunderbeast suppressor

afg foregrip

do you have nightforce scope rings?

if not just get lobaev

and a vudu/razor, or a tac30 if you need to

[agile torrent]

Tbh rfb has mostly visual recoil so getting it down isn’t a huge priority

IMO go for ergo

DT hybrid suppressor AFG or rvg (se5 if you have it) and a scope of choice

[topaz forge]

thunderbeast is light so you can ads longer + afg foregrip is balanced

si cobra isnt a bad choice tbh

[agile torrent]

DT hybrid saves the most ergo

[topaz forge]

weight has a larger effect on your arm stamina

[agile torrent]

True

But the weight difference isn’t huge

[agile torrent]

Like the base weight of the gun is most important

[topaz forge]

7 ergo diff

half a kilo

[limber cliff]

sell btc and gp

[merry cave]

no

[limber cliff]

ok then dont ask for input

[frosty coral]

can u guys send a pic of the rfb

im so confused

[merry cave]

sure one second

i dunno if i have one but

[agile torrent]

I fr don’t understand why the Thunderbeast has bad ergo and is light

Like those directly go against each other

Smaller suppressor should mean better feeling gun

Also worse recoil control

By a lot

[topaz forge]

yea stupid balancing shit that doesnt make sense

same reason the rk2 has bad ergo

[frosty coral]

i mean the modded rfb

[agile torrent]

I mean rk2 is uncomfortable

[topaz forge]

one moment

[agile torrent]

Rk2 is just a cold metal rod on your gun

[topaz forge]

its just a vertical foregrip

like rk1 but longer

[unreal horizon]

i love me a cold metal rod

[agile torrent]

Generally metal foregrips are great for control bad for feeling good

[topaz forge]

@frosty coral

[frosty coral]

wheres the 30cb thingy

[frosty coral]

ohhhhh isee it

nvm thanks

lmao

[topaz forge]

👍

[slate copper]

the ultra s quieter then the qdc

[frosty coral]

so dont use se-5?

[slate copper]

if you have it use it

[frosty coral]

i see it as an option

[topaz forge]

loudness is not implemented yet

[agile torrent]

Loudness stat means nothing as of now

[slate copper]

dam

so why not use the qdc is it a buget build

[agile torrent]

Also how the fuck is a small suppressor quieter than a massive one

This game is just mid

[slate copper]

oh

i ment is it

[agile torrent]

If you’re not high enough level it’s like 200k

[topaz forge]

why put a qdc on rfb

[slate copper]

yeah

[topaz forge]

minimal recoil gain for a single fire gun

[agile torrent]

Rfb has too much visual to care about paper recoil

[frosty coral]

does this look good?

[agile torrent]

No such thing as a bad rfb

It’s basically always the same

Just optimized fire noise and ergo

[topaz forge]

yes that is exactly what i showed you

[agile torrent]

26 ergo hurts my feelings

[topaz forge]

we need more ambi charging handles for m4

the best looking one is tan and i dont want tan on this build

[slate copper]

wdym

their is a grey raptor

if thats what your talking about

[topaz forge]

raptor is asymmetrical

its technically ambi still but like

ugh

[slate copper]

what one were you talking about then

[topaz forge]

best looking one

[serene reef]

y tho 🤔

[topaz forge]

wdym why

[frosty coral]

why would ppl pay for the vudu when the valday does the same thing for half the price

can someone explain

[topaz forge]

valday has bad eye relief

you can full auto with a vudu and never lose any sight picture

with the valday you go at least half black on the first shot

when you lean too

[frosty coral]

i see

[mint light]

valday sucks ass

[agile torrent]

Valday cannot keep on target while shooting

Also for half the price is pretty deceiving

Valday can be up to 60k on some days

Which is barely cheaper than the better scopes

[frosty coral]

i see

as a newer player it was just easier to slap on a valday or specter

but u guys are saying to pay for bettrer scopes cus its worth it?

[topaz forge]

yea

if its going on a semi or auto gun, the better scopes are much more worth

you can get away with it on a bolt action tbh

[night finch]

u guys think this is gonna sell?

capped at 2 and i have shit ton of to sell

idk if it's meta or shit so

[topaz forge]

yea it will sell

second best ak stock

for recoil

[night finch]

thanks

[mint light]

third

[topaz forge]

aint nobody care about crosshair and prs on ak

shit ugly as fuck

[mint light]

nah

im a crosshair user

[topaz forge]

aint no way

[spiral zodiac]

hey for friend from the west, killing usecs.. do you need their tag to register a usec or do you just need to put them down

[mint light]

just kill them

[spiral zodiac]

cool

[mint light]

tag can be from people u dont kill

[woven fiber]

how effective even is it

since bullets still go where barrel is

[mint light]

thats not what

[spiral zodiac]

i have tags turned in, just need 4 more kills

[mint light]

im talking about

at all

mt crosshair

[topaz forge]

crosshair

[oblique ruin]

Only good early game for sniping

[mint light]

the first 3 days of wipe

[oblique ruin]

Until u unlock vudu

[south epoch]

How do I do dorms quest should I just loot elsewhere until later in the runwhen other pmc may leave?

[topaz forge]

that works

[south epoch]

After the first machinery quest does that key become useless

[topaz forge]

yes

[south epoch]

I have 5 of em rn cause common af

[bold kernel]

hey guys i got 6 mil and this armour (i had alot more but i either sold it or lost it) and i wanna loot dorms marked room (10 times) whats a good gun and combination of armor for dorms pvp and i like scoped guns that are auto but other gun suggestions are welcome too

and yes i do have flea unlocked and i only have therapist lvl 2 other traders are lvl 1

[woeful spruce]

this is a tough question. untill you get at least a bit higher level traders its gonna be really expensive or impossible especially getting good ammo but you can run a reasonably modded akm or even rd704 or mutant but you will have to resort to using ps in it. modding a 5.45 ak with bp or pp ammo is an option but for sure not top tier. you can run a ump but again you cant get armor penetrating ammo yet

[unreal horizon]

class 4 and an smg or short rifle is good

[bold kernel]

i got some flechette maybe i could run a shotgun? if yes mind suggesting some shotgun build

[woeful spruce]

flechette shotgun is a great idea for dorms

having an efective full auto gun is kinda level/trader locked so going for semi auto/shotguns is a good idea untill then

[bold kernel]

yea so what shotgun

[woeful spruce]

mp 153

[bold kernel]

and can u tell me a build for it

[trim rover]

NAE LVL 18 2nd wipe LF Duo or Trio for Reserve or Interchange tasks/looting any LVL welcome

[woeful spruce]

its not super complicated realy just extended mag tube and sight is perfectly good, you need a mount called sprm to mount sights on it

[trim rover]

srry wrong chat

[bold kernel]

ooook

[woeful spruce]

all from jager

[bold kernel]

ok cool thanks

[woeful spruce]

if its price gouged on flea you can use a target ring sight from jager 1 instead it should go right on

[bold kernel]

this should be ok @woeful spruce

[rigid mirage]

what map are you playing

[bold kernel]

alright its time to get head eyes 500 meters away from a cheater

[woeful spruce]

good loadout

just take meds

[bold kernel]

going to dorms to loot marked 10 times

yea i did

[rigid mirage]

oh nice i have one use left on my key

[bold kernel]

cool

[rigid mirage]

what servers do you play

[bold kernel]

singapore

i live in india, delhi thats the server with the lowest ping for me

[rigid mirage]

oh im in the us

[bold kernel]

cool

[rigid mirage]

i got 2 keytools from my key and rest was like kedrs and t plugs did a rsass tho

[bold kernel]

i had used 1 key this is my 2nd

on the first key (i used all 10 uses) i got a injector case and like 50 shit guns

marked rooms got nerfed hard

also brb gotta pee

[rigid mirage]

alr

[bold kernel]

am back and match started bye

[rigid mirage]

gl

[mellow escarp]

are m4a1's any good or should i just scrap the ones i have for cash?

[topaz forge]

theyre good when you mod them out with more lategame attachments

kinda sucky early on

the ammo for them is pretty bad too, but thats every gun early on for the most part

7.62x39, .45, and 54r will do you better

[worldly panther]

.366...

[topaz forge]

you cant just buy .366

not the good stuff

early on

[worldly panther]

tkm eko...

i use it alot for only being lvl 9

[topaz forge]

7.62 ps is better

[worldly panther]

maybe but 366 tkm eko seems to handle body armor pretty well

[topaz forge]

7.62 ps will handle body armor even more betterer

eko has 30 pen and 40 armor damage
ps has 35 pen and 52 armor damage

[worldly panther]

i just like the way the vpo 209 works

[topaz forge]

the vepr km has less recoil

[bold kernel]

first marked room run (and killed 2 ppl and made it out alive)

[topaz forge]

nice

[serene reef]

good work!

[upbeat locust]

yo im lvl 13 anyone wanna run some tasks this is my first wipe

[mellow escarp]

any tips on managing stash space? like what sell, best/easiest cases to get ect, i have the standard edition and im running out of room every extract

[bold kernel]

send pics of ur stash

[topaz forge]

dont hoard things

sell mostly everything until you can get a scav junkbox, then you can keep some barter items

[outer prairie]

i have a bad habit of gear hoarding lmao

i rlly need to stop it

[upbeat locust]

lol same

[mellow escarp]

k

[outer prairie]

dont be afraid to sell some barter items

[topaz forge]

christ

[outer prairie]

especially useless ones

[mint light]

lotta useless items my friend

[mellow escarp]

ight this is what im asking abt lol

what should i sell

[spiral zodiac]

whats your lvl

[mellow escarp]

13

[upbeat locust]

where do i get the free gift?

[spiral zodiac]

on the official website

[outer prairie]

sell any gear you dont plan on using, any duplicate low value keys, and any useless barter items

[spiral zodiac]

log in, go to your profile and scroll down

[outer prairie]

then see where you're at and if you need to clear out more room

[outer prairie]

curious what your stash value is lmao

just seeing how packed it is

[spiral zodiac]

giant backpacks are also a bane. i know they give you extra spaces, but you're restricted to maintaining those giant specific spaces to store them

imho anyway

i'd love to see what's in the backpacks bc you probably don't need them

a pilgrim is a giant target literally on your back

[upbeat locust]

im really tryna hit lvl 15 anyone wanna help me?

[topaz forge]

most backpacks dont actually give you extra space

[plain shale]

@upbeat locust what help do you need?

[outer prairie]

id only use a pilgrim if i was like fully chadded out

[topaz forge]

id never usea pilgrim

[outer prairie]

and wanted to meme a bit

[upbeat locust]

just figuring out some tasks

and get an idea of some loot runs

[spiral zodiac]

loot runs = interchange at night

go for pcs and like 3 specific stores

[outer prairie]

if you need money early, learn lighthouse and scav the expansion, can make absurd money in quick runs if it

oops

if it's unlooted or like half looted

[spiral zodiac]

or learn how to rat and let other people do the work for you

but if you do that, know we're hunting you

[bold kernel]

i suggest u sell all the 30 mags and buy another junkbox for items that are bigger then a 1x1 and look up barter items keep the ones which are needed for quests sell the ones that are not needed for quests and look up all those keys u have see what they do if any of them are useless sell em

also whats in the backpacks

[jagged laurel]

Killed a 5 man extract camping names were grubrat1 grubrat2 etc

[spiral zodiac]

@jagged laurel I respect that extermination

[jagged laurel]

It was honestly fun

Had to dip before looting everything cause heard metal

[spiral zodiac]

is camping the campers meta?

[jagged laurel]

Nah

[unreal horizon]

unlikely

[spiral zodiac]

@jagged laurel which exfil were they watching

[jagged laurel]

D2

[spiral zodiac]

nice

[jagged laurel]

One had thermal ump😂

[spiral zodiac]

thermal ump can't reach thermal sv98

[jagged laurel]

Rd 704 on top

[spiral zodiac]

i loaded into a scav yesterday and was gifted a sv98 with a FLIR rs3-

[jagged laurel]

Saxy

[rigid current]

anyone got any good recommendations for pvp guides? other pvp games, I can usually reach a decent top tier level of skill, but tarkov just seems to keep handing my ass to me

to give further context, I do use offline factory with ai number set to high, which only seems to feel like it has minimal benefit.

[woeful spruce]

in tarkov even getting a high level of mechanical fps skill doesnt mean the game wont constantly hand your ass to you. the thing you need to work on now is gamesense, positioning and tactics and that offline factory will never teach you

[spiral zodiac]

jaded folks in here will tell you to just deal with it... i hate pvp for the same reasons you've outlined and all i can tell you is it doesn't get easier easily.

[cursive bane]

shOULD I SELL THIS caps lock

[outer prairie]

i feel like with good enough gamesense, you can be rlly good at tarkov even with really bad "aim"

[topaz forge]

sell

so bad

[cursive bane]

yea ik almiost died to a scav trying to yuse

use

[woeful spruce]

so my advice is to keep playing tarkov and learn from mistakes, try repositioning a lot, test difrent methods of peeking and use nades, you can look at some top tarkov streamers and analise how they aproach fights

[spiral zodiac]

sell all your gun mods. if you're < lvl 15 you don't need them. if you're >lvl 15 you can buy them in presets

[rigid current]

yeah I find myself resisting using nades because of the added weight

[cursive bane]

thankls

[woeful spruce]

they are incredibly usefull, at least one every single raid is almost a must for me. if youre pinned down throw a nade use the time the enemy takes cover from it to reposition, wanna know whre an enemy is throw a nade an liston where his footsteps of taking cover come from, its got almost infinite utility even not looking at its killing potential

[jagged laurel]

The way he approaches is going to be different because of aim and skills

[rigid current]

I was anticipating a response like that, so that's fair. I guess I was hoping there was just some small detail that I'd been ignoring that makes tarkov pvp work differentl.

differently*

I only recently learned that the binaural audio option is broken and shouldn't be used.

it helps somewhat but sound direction is still messed up

[woeful spruce]

one tip for pvp especially early in matches is knowing other nearby spawn points so that you can anticipate where players can and cant be for the first 5 mins which can really streamline your aproach to looking for targets and minimise surprises but the only way to learn that is experience really

[woeful spruce]

sadly yea, tarkov audio leaves a lot to be desired especially in multi storey buildings

[rigid current]

is it correct that some pmcs will spawn in a little later in the beginning of the raid, rather than ALL pmcs in the lobby spawning in at once?

[woeful spruce]

they spawn all at the same time

unless someone is having a conection problem then you can spawn with a aslight delay but its rare

[rigid current]

are dead servers actually a thing then, or just a myth made up from people extracting quick after they acheive their goal?

[unreal horizon]

yes

[woeful spruce]

after a certain amount of time passed player controlled scavs start spawning into raids and that is indeed random and unprdictable but pmcs are easy to predict

[woeful spruce]

its a thing

[unreal horizon]

they are supposed to at least have the min amount of players, but ask anyone who's played for any amount of time and they'll tell you otherwise

[woeful spruce]

usually achieved by selecting a single server and picking nighttime

[rigid current]

well okay then. up til now, I swore it was just my imagination.

[unreal horizon]

montreal night resort >>>

[gusty iron]

hello guys i just got EFT and i have Ryzen 5 3600 and Rx 480 strix gaming 8gb and 16 gb ram but game is still laggy for me idk why

[topaz forge]

night resort pvp

[rigid current]

nice for getting quests done uninterrupted, in theory, I guess. boring though.

[woeful spruce]

game is optimised like shit

everyone gets stutters regardless of rig

[rigid current]

yeah baki I got a friend with a near-same setup and he's struggling too.

[gusty iron]

idk what to do

should i upgrade graphic card?

[rigid current]

yeah he hasn't figured it out either. I've tried brainstorming with him but the only thing I can come up with is hardware.

[unreal horizon]

screenshot your graphics settings

[gusty iron]

do you have any totorial on yt where i can see what graphic should i use?

[woeful spruce]

it wont really help, i have a way worse one and run tarkov relatively fine

[gusty iron]

i am not in game rn

[unreal horizon]

"tarkov graphics guide"

[gusty iron]

ye but do you have any specific one that you know can help

[unreal horizon]

no but they should be functionally the same

[woeful spruce]

you can try mip streaming, it doesnt help with freezes but usually boosts fps

[gusty iron]

do oyu myb know if my graphic has like softwear that can automatic put best graphic for my pv

[unreal horizon]

not through the game

[rancid widget]

does this mean 24 hours + 10 mins

[woeful spruce]

yes

you can check in #eft-announcements

[dawn geyser]

This means it expires in that time.

[frosty coral]

i got lvl 3 prapor did i get anything good?

[somber portal]

easy access to class 5, for one

[unreal horizon]

BP once youre lvl 30

[pale zinc]

Is it hard to kill Shturman?

[unreal horizon]

easy when you see him first, if he sees you first it can be messy but still doable

[earnest crater]

It says my rep with Fence is -0.18 is that bad? if so how can I fix it

[merry cave]

so when doing scav runs, dont kill other scavs unless they shoot you or other scavs, theirs also vehicle and co-op extracts which you can do as a pmc

[earnest crater]

How do I know if it's a scav or a pmc

[merry cave]

also can i get help sorting ammo box and lucky scav crates?

[earnest crater]

I just shoot anything that moves haha

[merry cave]

scavs normally wear civ looking clothing, a good thing is the voicelines

[small charm]

Need help doing tasks NAE im new so they are early tasks

[earnest crater]

Don't they try to shoot you?

[small charm]

if you are a pmc yes

[merry cave]

if your a pmc yes, kill them

if you chose scav when deploying your good to avoid the npcs

[earnest crater]

ok awesome

how can I fix rep with Fence?

[dire folio]

Take car extracts and coop extracts

[earnest crater]

are they the ones that cost money?

[dire folio]

Yeah

It should only take one car extract to fix it

[mint light]

hiiii @dire folio

[topaz forge]

m61 soon

[dire folio]

Hi max

[thorn glen]

yeah m61 takes a while to craft

[topaz forge]

worth

m80 be bouncin

[quick lotus]

lf new people to play with

welcome back

[magic sierra]

how do make this game fun as solo

[hoary path]

Good question you don’t

[viscid basin]

Need help with basic stuff I’m very new to eft and pc 😂 dm me if u a cool dude I’m on eu serves mostly btw

[unreal horizon]

murder

wiping teams as solo is one of the most fun parts

[earnest crater]

How can I tell if a weapon mod fits on a particular gun?

like before I buy it how can I know it will attach

[unreal horizon]

if you have workbench use presets

will also be a dropdown labeled something along the lines of compatibility

[abstract dome]

Dying to someone using Luger CCI when I'm using Flechette... game is straight up TRASH! 😂

[rose skiff]

Cope

[abstract dome]

No. AAA prices for BETA trash game play? 😵‍💫

Thank god i didn't buy EOD.

[rose skiff]

No one’s forcing you to keep playing

[fathom osprey]

👍🏼

[abstract dome]

I know lol.

It's called an opinion.

[unreal horizon]

$100 to do a capcha everytime i buy ammo

epic

[abstract dome]

The game is broken and lost IMHO. I love the concept but it's idiotic atm.

[fathom osprey]

I still love it. So I still play.

[abstract dome]

I was where you are lol, I'm ready to uninstall. I'd rather play Fortnite 😂 and that is horrific.

[rose skiff]

No one’s stopping you from uninstalling

[abstract dome]

Where did I say they did? Lmao.

[rose skiff]

Quit bitching 🥱

[craggy peak]

I will never be able to put myself in the shoes of someone who gets dabbed on and immediately goes on discord to cry to strangers who don't care and didn't ask

[rose skiff]

Ong

[abstract dome]

Yawn.

[abstract dome]

Myself*

[serene reef]

You see

The part where your game crashes and you just die to something while loading back

or get perfectly naded by rng scav

that's a part of the game

"You got tarkoved"

[abstract dome]

Mine wasn't a disconnection issue, it was someone using sh!t ammo yet lasering you when you have good ammo.

Game is broken.

Simple

[craggy peak]

Yea youre not mentally ill

Stop typing

[serene reef]

Well duh today i wanted to stream tarky factory for my bf

i had by factory loadout that i didnt die with for like 30 raids

zebralo maska p90

[abstract dome]

BSG simp alert lol.

[serene reef]

i didnt pay attention cause bf

and i got killed with a ppsh

from a decent distance not cqc

[fathom osprey]

Well, "shit" is relative. Flechette is "shit" past like 50m. Cci is great flesh ammo. Why is it the game's fault that someone chose to load high damage ammo in an SMG and shoot for the legs?

[serene reef]

its tarkov

[topaz forge]

flechette is super good up close

[fathom osprey]

Yeah i mean any long range.

[topaz forge]

ah i see

[abstract dome]

Which is why I run it on factory, yet I was close and got beat by luger cci?

Yeah games tip top

[fathom osprey]

Not all ranges. My poor wording.

[serene reef]

i'd say flechette is p decent up to half of mid range too

[limber cliff]

you have a tarkov pfp

[serene reef]

well smgs have ROFs of 800rpm +

[fathom osprey]

They hit more shots on flesh?They were wearing high tier armor? Not all your projectiles landed?

[serene reef]

13.3 shots a second

[abstract dome]

They were actually naked IIRC.

[topaz forge]

clip or fake

[fathom osprey]

Oh it's phenomenal

[abstract dome]

I had a level 4 vest and helmet.

[serene reef]

flechette is only instakill if you headshot properly

otherwise you need to prepare to hit up to 4 shots

[fathom osprey]

Anything is an instakill if you headshot properly 😜

[serene reef]

if it was like magnum AP it would cost more than 500 per shot on flea and more than 150 from traders xD

[serene reef]

faceshield + rip ammo

[topaz forge]

aim like neck with flechette you will ruin anyone

[fathom osprey]

Haha true

[abstract dome]

I was aiming high head area yet the guy and his boyfriend killed me. Mehhh lol.

[serene reef]

why are you assuming they were gay 🤔

also then you prob just missed

[abstract dome]

Pretty close. They were a cute couple tbf.

[serene reef]

remb that shotties have spread

remb that netcode isnt perfect

and client side not always = server side

[abstract dome]

No sh!t lol.

[serene reef]

but i think this might be just a lil bit of skill issue < 3

[abstract dome]

This game can get fcuked which is why I will open again tomorrow.

[serene reef]

Yes it is very healthy to ragequit in this game

i do that all the time and only in this game xD

[abstract dome]

It's a love hate relationship.

[serene reef]

but ig that's apart of being a lone wolf

[fathom osprey]

Jesse Kazam said it best, playing Tarkov is like getting punched in the dick. Every day. Then one day you don't get punched in the dick, and it feels like a great day.

[abstract dome]

True lol

[serene reef]

well i think it also depends on how much experience and skill you have

[abstract dome]

first wipe

[serene reef]

i've hit my prime quite a while ago and i set my standards low nowadays

no i mean fps games

not tarkov

sad to say but i spent too much time playing fps games in my life

both good and bad i'd say

but i dont feel like im being punched by the game

if ever i feel like i just didnt play well enough

fight against the game feels equal

and 1v5ing is just a matter of playing it out correctly

[abstract dome]

I'm a BF vet, play some warzone but that sh!t is painful. Took me a long time to pull the trigger on Tarkov.

[frigid finch]

with the occasional bullshit one tap eyes from an npc lol

[echo spruce]

fastest way to get nuts and bolts

[serene reef]

IKR

i went last wipe SUPER FAT

like flir t6 svds

on day customs iirc?

just like heavy geared

[fathom osprey]

Tool boxes and tech crates

[serene reef]

and i got naded by scav on first contact before they shot

so i took cover

and the guy threw the nade INTO THE ROOM i took cover in

not even at me

[echo spruce]

what place to get

[serene reef]

but like perfectly bh my cover xD

[serene reef]

tool boxes and tool crates

[abstract dome]

This wipe is a learning curve I think.

[serene reef]

what maps do you love the most?

[echo spruce]

like what map is te best to find those

[serene reef]

you will start to feel like you learned and start feeling comfy after 1000 hours

after 2000 hours you will start feeling free

[frigid finch]

i mean, its my first wipe and im starting to figure shit out...only thing i dont like about this game is the fact that 98% of the people who "pvp" are just cowards who hold one angle...not saying they shouldnt or that it isnt effective...its just boring to die to someone just sitting there doing nothing

[serene reef]

and experienced enough to try to troll people and like use your stupid ideas and they work

[serene reef]

this wasnt always the case?

people got hit with inertia

then people got hit with streamers making the smart not fast playstyle more popular

[dire folio]

Meow

[abstract dome]

I got killed by a PMC on a scav run he was actually hiding in the building near CP Fence lol.

[serene reef]

meow

[serene reef]

i've been sniping a lot recently

[abstract dome]

They had a full w4nks0ck I bet.

[frigid finch]

this is more of just a general gripe about all shooters across the board...people have started playing them like pussies cause everyone cares about "muh kd" bullshit...i miss the days bops2 and prior where people played to have fun lol

[serene reef]

i got most of my kills for punisher 4 by just camping HEPS

took me like 10 raids each 35min

xD

it was funny i ruined some people's days

[serene reef]

you're wrong

[echo spruce]

best place to farm toolboxes'

[abstract dome]

Tarkov = Professional time wasting game.

[serene reef]

i think you just became better at those games

so you face different people

you see just being aggressive is actually a very shit strat

it doesnt take you far

[frigid finch]

no lol, this stuff started happening before sbmm was even a thing

[serene reef]

i asked you already

what maps are you the most comfy with

there are plenty of places you can go to

from interchange stashes and oli to customs and woods

[bold kernel]

ark

[serene reef]

destiny 2

[serene reef]

warframe

[serene reef]

wow

[bold kernel]

shush

[serene reef]

my boyfriend plays all 3

[bold kernel]

ik what i said!

[serene reef]

wait no not warframe

[bold kernel]

warframe not a timely game?? can’t be

[serene reef]

then maybe its because average skill level of everyone got raised a shit ton

[serene reef]

no i meant he doesnt play it 😂

[frigid finch]

the rise in streaming/youtube 'guides' ruined video games imo......everyone has to play 'meta' now...which means you are at a disadvantage if you dont play that way...and eventually even the fun modes in games like kill confirmed in cod became camp fests because that was the 'optimal' way to play

[leaden valve]

hey, so i got a saiga 12ga v.10 and a salvo suppressor, i know i need an adapter but where do i find one

[unreal horizon]

probably jaeger

[topaz forge]

right click the suppressor, click linked search

[serene reef]

linked search on the suppresor to see what it connects to

[leaden valve]

alright thanks

[bold kernel]

in cod? mp7 rules all

[serene reef]

cute

[topaz forge]

mp7 in mw19 is so fun

too bad that game isnt fun anymore

[bold kernel]

first gun i got gold

[leaden valve]

so mechanic has them but its locked what does that mean

[frigid finch]

idk, havent played cod since black ops 3 and blackout/warzone...people ruined multiplayer

[unreal horizon]

u cant get em

[topaz forge]

got m4 gold first because i was bad

[unreal horizon]

need higher trader

[topaz forge]

but i got damascus anyways

[serene reef]

if you hover over the "locked" button it will tell you

[bold kernel]

lucky

[leaden valve]

ah alright

[serene reef]

also you can search that item on wiki for more info

[bold kernel]

i wasn’t able to get damascus cause of the big reset

and it kinda got ruined after i think cold war released and it messed up the menu

[leaden valve]

and how do i go about raising my loyalty level

[bold kernel]

questing

[serene reef]

i started with TDP3 and TDP4 and got into A.V.A. and CS:GO

[leaden valve]

ah alright

thanks guys

[serene reef]

i played lots of bfp4f and bfh

[topaz forge]

what

[serene reef]

if you hover over the traders ? they will tell you what you need

[bold kernel]

reset levels lost motivation 😔

[serene reef]

also inside the trader menu on right side

You need to be high enough level, have enough money spent with them and enough reputation (questing)

[frigid finch]

i mean, them selling skins ruined all motivation to grind out the gold/diamond/equivalent skins since what was the fucking point

[leaden valve]

ohhhhhhh okay

big thanks

[serene reef]

also free tip everything counts towards money spent

buying, selling, repairing with them,

[leaden valve]

need a big grind for the adapter

[serene reef]

for example people struggle with getting skier money spent

but you can just repair armor with him early game

[leaden valve]

oh i thought it was just buying lol

[bold kernel]

any transaction with him counts

[fathom osprey]

Flea market or green and black weapon crates

[leaden valve]

i am lvl 4 i dont have the flea yet

[serene reef]

? (confusion)

[unreal horizon]

lol yeah tell the new player to go search weapon crates all day for a .1% chance

[leaden valve]

lmao thats what i have been doing

[fathom osprey]

Sorry i was catching up 😅

[leaden valve]

every scav

[serene reef]

OMG NOOO

[unreal horizon]

why

just get lvl 15 in the time you've wasted

[serene reef]

there are like thousands of items

[leaden valve]

endless endless searches

[serene reef]

you wont be able to find it xD

[fathom osprey]

True. Needle in a haystack

[leaden valve]

how long do you think it will take

[serene reef]

its a higher chance you will actually find a person with that kinda gun with that kinda suppressor

[leaden valve]

only playing customs

[serene reef]

and kill them

and take their gun

[frigid finch]

lol wtf...didnt even know that...and here i am, using a fucking armor repair kit like an idiot when i needed to spend more with him

[serene reef]

then to actually find it searching weapon boxes crates and scavs

[leaden valve]

i got the saiga and everything, just need the adapter

[serene reef]

yeah but weap repair kits are actually super money efficient

like you can save 1+ mil

[bold kernel]

wait is there a reason you want the supressor? or just for recreational purposes

[serene reef]

at that point you can very well just buy m9a3 from him and sell it abck to him

also when it comes to jeager money spent

[leaden valve]

i want it to look cool

hang on ill get a ss

[serene reef]

you can buy a db for 8800 and sell for 6300

which is 2.5k for like 15k spent

[bold kernel]

2.5k loss isn’t terrible actually

[serene reef]

85k to get to 500k money spent

mostly you're gonna be vending items to traders for half the buy price

so idk what happened with the db

also i've never gotten anything good from giving tree or old gas

[frigid finch]

i need another $3.5k at peacekeeper lol

[leaden valve]

https://i.gyazo.com/b5aa302c79e9359b3013454b3b8a2269.png

[serene reef]

today is the day 👌

[split dagger]

buy dollars you will need them

[fathom osprey]

They're so durable and reusable they hold their value 😆

[serene reef]

^

[frigid finch]

i posted the other night i got level 6 armor from the giving tree, was just sitting there lol

[split dagger]

its better to buy axes on flea and sell it to jaeger

[serene reef]

NO BAD HORRIBLE cat bops you

[leaden valve]

how so

[serene reef]

45 durab saiga

[split dagger]

they are usually the same price as to trader

[frigid finch]

i already have 13.5k dollars and no idea what to spend it on lol

[serene reef]

with a canted foregrip worth like 80k on flea

[split dagger]

what level are you?

[frigid finch]

27

[fathom osprey]

Oooooof truuuuee

[split dagger]

once you reach max traders many meta parts are sold from pk

[fathom osprey]

Take off all the mods and sell the gun for the love of God.

[leaden valve]

https://i.gyazo.com/3faa78b23f24ffdff59fe135541ccb40.png

[frigid finch]

ahhh cool, not too worried about money yet...most of it is just wasted on my own stupidity lol

[split dagger]

you can buy ump silencer and holo

pk sells it all

and stock up on 45 acp ap and m80

[serene reef]

yeah there's never really enough dollars

and if you're overflowing just buy air filtering unit for 25k dollars (3mil)

[frigid finch]

i cant wait to be able to finally start buying decent ammo for a reasonable price lol

[split dagger]

do you have pk3?

I think you should I forgot what level you need for him

[serene reef]

swampfox add a questionable blushy emote

[leaden valve]

so where do i get a full durability saiga

[serene reef]

1. rclick saiga
2. filter by item

[serene reef]

that will tell you if you can buy it from flea or unlocked at traders

other than that you gotta be very lucky with weapon boxes spawns

saiga isnt super uncommon but you will find one maybe once / 300 raids :)

[split dagger]

just make sure you have selected full durability in flea options

[serene reef]

so ig the most reasonable tactic would be choose a different weapon or get jeager 2

[serene reef]

durab is displayed as info of gun

[split dagger]

yea but flea will be overfilled with low dura saigas

because many scavs have them

[leaden valve]

true true

im also flat broke

26k in the bank

[split dagger]

do you feel comfortable on any maps?

[leaden valve]

not really but i kinda know customs

[serene reef]

if you want some sort of passive income you can ALWAYS use scav when its off CD

[leaden valve]

i do scavs here and there

[serene reef]

like you can reduce time wasted by running through on factory and vendoring everything to traders

like 1min for factory load screen

30sec to get to exit

[leaden valve]

geez

[serene reef]

if you're fast 30sec to sell to traders

2-5min before every raid

[unreal horizon]

only really applicable with high rep

[serene reef]

and you get a passive income of 100-200k per scav depends on rep can be lower or higher

[serene reef]

its good if you dont use your scav at all

just do one before your pmc raid

[leaden valve]

yeah i know i can not be broke on scavs by selling all of it

[serene reef]

fffffff i should go to sleep xD

[earnest crater]

How can I increase profit by scav runs?

[frigid finch]

or you can be me with like -7 fence rep and murder every scav you see

[earnest crater]

If I increase rep with fence can I get better scav gear?

[serene reef]

you get better loot on scavs MORE OFTEN

[earnest crater]

oh that's fun

[serene reef]

but the biggest game changer is that the cooldown is SIGNIFICANTLY decreased

[earnest crater]

oooo

how low can it go?

[serene reef]

like if you have intel 3 and 6rep you can run the scav every 5-6min

[earnest crater]

ok now that is awesome

how do I get to that stage

intel 3?

[unreal horizon]

thing is by the time you max hideout you won't really need to scav lol\

[serene reef]

yes but also you can get a decent amount of money from just running through on scavs while you're busy with smthn else

that way you can increase your budget

also fuck i love getting ran down by some ppheads with t6 armor that are too pvp hungry and chase spawns ON CUSTOMS

like imagine ignoring fortress loot and going straight to crack hoping for more pvp

[unreal horizon]

customs is the main pvp map tbh

only map with consistent players

[serene reef]

yeah but like, please dont ingore all the freaking loot around you just to check if someone spawned there

like im gonna come to you no worries xD

[unreal horizon]

no one needs loot they need action

[serene reef]

this happens once per maybe 20+ raids for me

define everyone

actually i think for more than 100 raids

it happened like twice?

3?

[unreal horizon]

you're lvl 17 so you're likely questing as opposed to pushing consistent pvp, but now that most people have max traders customs has the most juiced players

[serene reef]

this

[unreal horizon]

lol wut

[bold kernel]

what time is it over there

[serene reef]

FREAKING 2AM

[bold kernel]

ouch

[serene reef]

sips on half cold green tea

[bold kernel]

i only know sweet tea

ginseng as well

[hidden pelican]

is any one able to teach me the rope to this game

[frigid finch]

ok i am having way too much fun shotgunning at factory lol

[sharp parcel]

If you need any Sherpa help or want to learn something send me a dm!

[jagged laurel]

Best gun dis wipe

[frigid finch]

They have to nerf flechette right?

[jagged laurel]

Nah

[frigid finch]

why the fuck did someone bring this into factory lol

[frigid finch]

haha

[drifting tiger]

meta gun

[worldly patrol]

Does Shturman spawn at night?

[drifting tiger]

yep

and the goons and cultist priest spawn in woods as well at night

[whole thistle]

goons dont need night

[drifting tiger]

really?

[whole thistle]

they cant spawn whenever

[worldly patrol]

Where usually?

[drifting tiger]

my bad then

the saw mill

shturman only spawn there

[worldly patrol]

Cause I have a task for therapist and I want to do it at Night

[whole thistle]

shturman?

sawmill

he has like 1 spawn

[worldly patrol]

No the cultist

[drifting tiger]

yep

cultist hard to find them

[whole thistle]

oh they spawn around the marked circle near sawmill

[worldly patrol]

Good

[drifting tiger]

but shoreline is a good option

[whole thistle]

theyre weird af to find on woods

[drifting tiger]

to find cultist

[worldly patrol]

Okok thanks

I have to get something in Cabin

[drifting tiger]

but my recommendation is get a squad

because those cultist are relentless

[worldly patrol]

I have a friend we'll play later

I just want to avoid players and ai tbh

I just want to get that 7k

[bold kernel]

middle cabin under the bed right?

[worldly patrol]

Yeah

[whole thistle]

daily task?

[drifting tiger]

which cabin?

[worldly patrol]

Supply plans

[whole thistle]

oh lol i thought you meant the cultist thing

[worldly patrol]

No Lol

[drifting tiger]

also @worldly patrol are you looking someone to play with?

I kinda need to some quest in interchange

[worldly patrol]

Oh what quest?

[drifting tiger]

you know the one you have to stash those ghzel k?

yeah, I got sniped 3 times while doing it

[worldly patrol]

Nop

I'm still lvl 16

[drifting tiger]

oof

[worldly patrol]

Yeah

[drifting tiger]

no wonder

[worldly patrol]

Yes

[drifting tiger]

I mean if you're open for quest, do DM me though

[worldly patrol]

Okok

[drifting tiger]

cuz my friend won't play this game despite me trying to buy for him

[worldly patrol]

Sad

[drifting tiger]

yeah, he hates the jankiness of the game

[worldly patrol]

You're in Asia right?

[drifting tiger]

yeah

[worldly patrol]

Nice nice

Hk server?

[drifting tiger]

sure

any Asian server, I'm fine with

[worldly patrol]

Okok that's good

[drifting tiger]

but yeah Interchange is my least favorite map of all

[worldly patrol]

I don't like it also

[drifting tiger]

and the fact ragman gives me a lot of them, is way too absurd

[worldly patrol]

I mostly go woods or customs

[drifting tiger]

yeah same

but not woods

cuz not much PvP

[worldly patrol]

Oh really

[drifting tiger]

but sniping wise, it's fun

[worldly patrol]

Yes

Especially with this

[drifting tiger]

ayo, nice sv-98

[worldly patrol]

Thanks

[whole thistle]

mosin++

[worldly patrol]

I have used the mosin before

It was good

But I'm trying the Sv rn

[whole thistle]

sv98 is just mosin+

and that one is dripped out the wazoo

[drifting tiger]

you mean the mosin with Promag?

[drifting tiger]

yeah but mosin is superior

[worldly patrol]

Yeah

[whole thistle]

default mosin looks better than default sv98

[worldly patrol]

True

[drifting tiger]

true

there's another quest I want to do as well which involving destroying a level 6 armor

and give it to ragman once it hit below 50

stupid quest ngl

[worldly patrol]

What quest it that?

[unreal horizon]

get someone to shoot it with flechette and toss it in water

[drifting tiger]

sew it good

[unreal horizon]

guaranteed insurance

[drifting tiger]

oh yeah that method

and nobody can take the armor since it's in the water

I still regret not claiming the ks23

[worldly patrol]

Since it's in the water can you get it back?

With insurance

[drifting tiger]

yeah

if nobody picks it

it's called insurance fraud

[worldly patrol]

Ah okok

To bad I got killed a camper

[drifting tiger]

oof

by extraction?

[worldly patrol]

Yeah almost extraction

[drifting tiger]

that's even worst

[ruby adder]

You can get absolutely anything insured back regardless on where it's left assuming no one exits the raid with the item(s)

[worldly patrol]

Near trailers in custom

Man was hiding in the train

Rip my AK and Bp ammo

[drifting tiger]

that's a dick move

[worldly patrol]

I didn't even get to shoot it

[warm bone]

Playing a scav run how do u know who a player is and a actual scav

[drifting tiger]

damn

but you can still buy the ammo

look at their clothes

and if AI they will shout at you

if a player they don't

[warm bone]

Ok cheers

[drifting tiger]

no prob

also look at their movement

like how they're running

also @worldly patrol you wanna play now?

[worldly patrol]

It's kind of noisy rn

Since I'm at my grandma

[outer nexus]

if anyone is able to help me complete aquarius and the bronze pocket watch on customs, lemme know 🙂

[drifting tiger]

ah

what server though?

[worldly patrol]

HK

[drifting tiger]

no I mean @outer nexus

[worldly patrol]

Lol

Srry

[drifting tiger]

nah, all good

[outer nexus]

HK? @drifting tiger

[drifting tiger]

Hong Kong

[outer nexus]

ah, lemme see my ping!

[drifting tiger]

if above 180+, you can't play

you'll get disconnected right away

[outer nexus]

ehhhhh lololol

179/180 xD

can you do europe? @drifting tiger

[drifting tiger]

I can do Russia

that's the farthest I could go

[outer nexus]

Oh! I have about 100 to st. pet

[warm bone]

Okay my scav run went bad i wasnt shooting at a scav this was a real player and my scav reputation is bad but when i was trying to kill this player a AI scav killed me is that cos of my reputation

[drifting tiger]

all right, lemme change my ping then

[drifting tiger]

what's your reputation?

[warm bone]

_1.92

[drifting tiger]

negative?

[warm bone]

Ye

[bold kernel]

How do you not have fence quests to raise your rep?

[frigid finch]

my rep is -6.93 and that was with accidentally turning in one of my quests for + 1.0 rep

[bold kernel]

Literally how

When you scav don't shoot anything or voiceline at everything you see until you can identify pmcs

[frigid finch]

lol or shoot everything on sight like a true scav

[bold kernel]

No

[frigid finch]

im gonna see how negative i can get my rep this wipe since its my first

ill play correctly next wipe lol

[haughty verge]

if anyone wants a lvl 4 to run with hit me up

[cyan canopy]

Im looking for help on factory farming pt 1

[granite apex]

Anyone have any advice on getting this pocket watch?

[quick owl]

Go in there naked

Grab it and run out like hell

[granite apex]

I did and got shot by the first scav that spawned in. Fifth day in a row trying

[quick owl]

Hmmm you going to need to hit up the looking for group channel

The community here is amazing

[mint light]

filth day?

wowee

[quick owl]

Someone will fief help you out

Definitely*

Max please help this man lol jk

[granite apex]

Yeah keep getting killed by some level 40 guy or a group of scavs

[quick owl]

How are you liking it tho ?

[granite apex]

Same reason I didn’t quest all last wipe

Or the one before that

[quick owl]

The toughness….oh nvm you’re not new

[granite apex]

I’ve got almost 2k hours of just sitting in the menus

[mint light]

whaaat

[granite apex]

Yep

[mint light]

did u leave the game open for like 3 months

[granite apex]

Anytime I find someone to run with they poof. And since I can’t get flea until lvl15 I’m stuck

No I’ve been plying on and off since 2018

[mint light]

holy mackarel

[granite apex]

Like I said I don’t quest because every level 40+ player runs the easy maps for kills

[mint light]

customs has fun pvp

[quick owl]

There’s no way

[mint light]

what can i say

[quick owl]

You have that much time played and can’t do simple quests

You’re trolling us

[granite apex]

I’ve never done question before

Questing* I usually just run interchange all wipe

[quick owl]

Play more ratty I’d say

If you want quests done

[granite apex]

So hide in a bush and wait for a player with thermals or nvgs to kill me got it

[quick owl]

When I have a hard task I literally check every corner, I wait for players to pass knowing the spawn locations

[granite apex]

Or am I waiting for the scavs and hackers to shoot me through walls?

[quick owl]

Just get in there and grab it and get out

You can’t have bad rng all the time

[granite apex]

That’s the problem people sit at the extracts and kill anything that moves. No one even uses voip anymore

[quick owl]

Do you have factoey emergency key

[granite apex]

Can’t get decent gear unless I quest but I can’t get quests done because I get killed 3 minutes into raid.

A what?

[quick owl]

Factory emergency key

[granite apex]

I’m level 7 I can’t access flea

[quick owl]

I know you can’t but was wondering if you had it, you could easily escape at zb 13

[granite apex]

You would have to cross half the map to turn the power on then back

[quick owl]

You wouldn’t Have to if you are getting pocket watch

Grab watch jump over wall to turn on power

[granite apex]

Zb13 requires power to be turned on

[quick owl]

Go back thru old gas

[granite apex]

Level 7 can’t jump over anything

[quick owl]

And you’re out

Over that small wall you could

[granite apex]

Small? That’s a concrete wall that stands two pmcs tall

[quick owl]

There’s a hill that goes up

You. Can use that to jump over

Good luck kid

[granite apex]

And the odds of someone knowing I’m trying to extract through their once power is on increases. As do the chances of me being killed. Wouldn’t matter anyway I don’t have the key

Lol kid

[quick owl]

Lmao you’re useless

Or you’re just trolling

No one is that bad at this game.

You literally have an excuse for everything lmao

I can’t believe I’m feeding into this

Cya

[granite apex]

You told me I should have a factory key and that’s not possible at level 7, telling me to jump a wall when I can barely sprint 30ft without getting tired. I’m just saying this game has gotten shittier and shittier

Doesn’t help that no one uses voip since the big time streamers who play this game abuse everyone’s trust and now no one trusts anyone

[hollow minnow]

you can jump over the wall, and factory key is readily available at your level through jackets

not sure why you're getting mad when they're just giving you suggestions

[quick owl]

He’s fucking with us lol

[cunning vigil]

anyone wanna run customs? new player or anything?

[oblique heath]

i got a question

when u get the game how long does it take to get the beta inventation

[edgy plover]

There's no invitation, you just download the launcher from the website, and the game from there

[oblique heath]

Anyone willing to help me learn the woods map? I have a good grasp of customs but cant find my way in woods at all

[frigid finch]

i mean if you learned customs already, learning a second map should be pretty easy...i learned woods after customs as well and only took me a few attempts to really get it...just drop in with a bag and a pistol a few raids and youll figure it out quick

[forest lantern]

Unfortunately i have just returned from a few attempts at that and have failed each time
