If you have bass all you hear is thud thud thud

[lusty crow]

I want there to be airpods in tarkov

You talk to your allies via a WhatsApp call

[unreal horizon]

[fervent ermine]

you're saying it as an insult

i am saying it as facts

[unreal horizon]

Maximus the glizzy gladiator

[mint light]

real

[bold kernel]

fast ears

[split dagger]

Only time I use comtac 4 is when its raining heavy

[mint light]

damn

[fervent ermine]

comtac 4s sound amazing, can also hear far

[mint light]

u suck dick at tarky!!!

[lusty crow]

I suck dick :3

[mint light]

me too bestie

[lusty crow]

XD

[split dagger]

You hear the same distance with every headphones

[fervent ermine]

yes, but with comtac 4 it is clearer

[split dagger]

Only thing that lets you hear further is perception

[unreal horizon]

yeah but just put your listening ears on

[split dagger]

Max perception is OP once you get it

[bold kernel]

gssh headset makes it sound the scav pivoting 80 meters away is right next to you

[lusty crow]

We all know it depends on whether the enemy is using there inside gun or outside gun 🙂

[mint light]

thats just how all scav audio works

they voiceline and u hear it at 75m

[bold kernel]

no not the voicelining, their footsteps

[mint light]

thats a good thing

[fervent ermine]

that's bad?

[split dagger]

Yall just suck at determining audio

[turbid belfry]

guys how tf do i clean my stash idk what to sell etc

[mint light]

horizontal audio lowkey good

[fervent ermine]

you just bad

[bold kernel]

its bad not knowing where everything is because it sounds like the scav walking around 50 meters from you is right behind you

[mint light]

does being in a building make audio outside better

even on a clear day

[fervent ermine]

yes

[split dagger]

Yes when you are used to audo

[split dagger]

Id beat you blindfolded

[fervent ermine]

1v1 me

m2 only

[split dagger]

Man

Im the sword king

[fervent ermine]

nah bro i am

[split dagger]

Have you ever meleed killa and tagilla?

In one raid

[fervent ermine]

no, because i didnt try to do it

[split dagger]

Weak

[jaunty fulcrum]

What actions add rep for scavs

Extract as scav and buying vehicles extract?

[clever shard]

Killing traitor scavs

[shell jackal]

Extracting as scav killing traitor scavs and co-op extracts

[jaunty fulcrum]

Tf how am i gonna find a trator scav

[shell jackal]

Player scavs who shoot scavs

[cold walrus]

And killing pmcs right? Or is that only if the pmc killed a scav?

[clever shard]

Killing pmcs that kill scavs

[jaunty fulcrum]

But you dont loose rep killing scavs as pmc

[shell jackal]

Neither

[mint light]

killing pmcs that kill scavs

gives rep

[clever shard]

Correct

[mint light]

🏋️

[clever shard]

You don't

[jaunty fulcrum]

How do i coop to extract

Voip?

[shell jackal]

You mean player scavs not pmc’s right

[tender cairn]

what can i do to make very quick money

[shell jackal]

Yeah you just gotta pray

[jaunty fulcrum]

Just sit by extract and hope? Lol

[shell jackal]

That they don’t shoot you and do the co-op extract

[clever shard]

It's rare

[shell jackal]

I ran around trying to find them

Yeah

[jaunty fulcrum]

Damn

Can an ai scav do co op

[shell jackal]

I only managed it once

J no

They will just shoot you

[jaunty fulcrum]

Makes sense

[clever shard]

You'd have better luck as a pmc on a team and threatening to kill scavs if they don't extract with you

[mint light]

easier if ur a pmc and not the scav

[jaunty fulcrum]

Ig

[mint light]

because they will be forced to due to gear diff

[shell jackal]

Just ask don’t threaten

[jaunty fulcrum]

Ensalved scavs lmao

[shell jackal]

Kill them if they don’t

[mint light]

u can threaten them if u have line of sight

[shell jackal]

But don’t threaten

[jaunty fulcrum]

Lmao

[mint light]

like come here or im going to murder u

[shell jackal]

Yeah

[jaunty fulcrum]

I need to learn how to tell a pscav from ai scav

[split dagger]

I kill scavs as a scav

[mint light]

real

[shell jackal]

Ew

[split dagger]

Scavs life dont matter

[mint light]

AI are not people

[jaunty fulcrum]

I hunt santa as scav

[mint light]

i murder scavs and i have 6 rep

im cool like that

[fervent ermine]

[split dagger]

6 rep

[fervent ermine]

im on -1

[jaunty fulcrum]

Ai scavs always yell when they see you?

[split dagger]

Is such a waste of time

[jaunty fulcrum]

Or say something

[mint light]

usually

[dawn geyser]

Not always, good amount though

You'll learn by their movements slowly.

[mint light]

idk its stupid money and im like half asleep doing a scav and still make 500k

[jaunty fulcrum]

I found a few players scavs by doing q+e

[split dagger]

If you are good at the game you dont need to scav

[mint light]

ai scavs also wiggle

[jaunty fulcrum]

The sign of hey

Not in response

[neon fulcrum]

@bold kernel @fervent ermine i would call the TX-15 run a success

[edgy plover]

AI scavs will do that in response as well

[jaunty fulcrum]

Oh fr?

Damn

[neon fulcrum]

ye lmao, saw i that did it to me, was an ai scav 100%

[mint light]

i am bad 😔

[bold kernel]

w run good money!

[jaunty fulcrum]

The ai is learninf

[fervent ermine]

ez

[fervent ermine]

good shit

[split dagger]

Its easy to tell ai scav from pscav from their movement

When AI scav runs he will stop running like he hit the brakes

[jaunty fulcrum]

Yea i havent played enough to tell

[bold kernel]

odd question wouldn't the hex be at 50 naturally?

[mint light]

he shot them

[jaunty fulcrum]

Only have like 45 hours so far

[mint light]

🏋️

[fervent ermine]

also ai scavs move weirdly

movement is really fluid

[mint light]

the used to move in like 30fps lol

[neon fulcrum]

that idk, but i got it off the killed player, so its a bit damaged

[split dagger]

Yes, you can check armor durability by clicking on repair

[jaunty fulcrum]

I need to see a clip of an ai scav moving compared to a pscav moving

To tell the difference

[split dagger]

Go play the game

[bold kernel]

it's fir so it'd be at 50 but he got it off a kill so it may be damaged already and at 49 not 50

[jaunty fulcrum]

I cant rn

Mf in a lecture

[slender lily]

Listen for the skid when they run. Also they point their guns at the sky and are mechanical in general

[bold kernel]

for a sweaty no life like you yes

[neon fulcrum]

just compare PMC loot goblin wiht normal ai scav that runs, stops, looks around, checks ammo, keeps walking into a dorr

[fervent ermine]

you are mad he is better than you

lol

[jaunty fulcrum]

Fair enough

[bold kernel]

bro

[fervent ermine]

also level 48 is normal this point in wipe

[tender cairn]

any tips to maximize income from raids

[jaunty fulcrum]

Viding at lvl 13

[fervent ermine]

lighthouse

[tender cairn]

scav or pmc

[bold kernel]

scav on lighthouse

[tender cairn]

where should i go

just water treatment?

or should i loot

is lighthouse night dead

[split dagger]

XD

[tender cairn]

@bold kernel

[bold kernel]

yes

and to answer your other questions you can hit the chalets up and then push the treatment plant

[tender cairn]

alr

[bold kernel]

if you wanna go that route of course you can always loot the chalets and leave cause that's still decent profit

[tender cairn]

yeah i just need money

i’m broke

[bold kernel]

nighthouse is typically dead by the time scavs spawn in

[shell jackal]

I dropped a pmc with a vpo that didn’t have a dust guard with 12 minutes left

[bold kernel]

very nice

[shell jackal]

Got my first switchblade from it

[neon fulcrum]

nice nice

[shell jackal]

Thank you thank you

[ashen parcel]

hi , which of these keys are worth keeping and which should i sell?

[neon fulcrum]

depends on what map u like to play or?

[shell jackal]

Keep the labs key cards

Otherwise idk

[ashen parcel]

im learning so i play all kinda

[neon fulcrum]

if u do factory alot for example... keep factory key

[mint light]

a lot of those keys are supa dick

[fervent ermine]

Keep factory even for customs

[neon fulcrum]

focus on learning one map at a time

[neon fulcrum]

ye

[fervent ermine]

It opens an extract and also a pass through

[austere hound]

Factory exit, zb-14, dorm marked, dorm 110 (& 114), & directors office you can keep.

The rest afaik aren't really worth

[bold kernel]

rb-orb iirc goes for a fair bit on flea

yeah its 160k on flea rn

[fervent ermine]

Keep OR key too

Access cards too

[bold kernel]

what does purple name mean

[dawn geyser]

Emissary.

[fervent ermine]

Asked earlier got answer earlier

Or was someone else with the same exact emissary lol

[bold kernel]

whats that

[dawn geyser]

Emissaries are volunteers from all over the world who are actively involved in the Escape from Tarkov community and support Battlestate Games. Emissaries create content, make sure every voice in the community is heard, they make official messages clear and accessible to players anywhere in the world.

FUCK

[serene reef]

I thought emissaries were just people who translate stuff :O

[dawn geyser]

Include but are not limited to

[neon fulcrum]

lol is this M1A cursed? looks abit like it

someone on customs had it

[fervent ermine]

If you have to ask

It most likely is

And it very much is

[shell jackal]

It’s not horrid

It’s just a weird scope

[fervent ermine]

It is

[serene reef]

why is the raptar where it is

please fix

[shell jackal]

Pm II right

Yeah

[serene reef]

3-12x is the best scope for long range sniping

atm

[shell jackal]

It’s a 30k scope

[dark wyvern]

you need it for multiple doors on customs too

[serene reef]

its like the only decent high magnification scope

im asking why isnt the range finder on first slot closer to eye on the en scope mount

[serene reef]

12x is 12x

[shell jackal]

That’s cool

[neon fulcrum]

still was a fun run, lmao and now im gonna do a run with that cursed gun

[unreal horizon]

i love that spot

[serene reef]

its sooo hard to hit people tho i cri

past 450m

[unreal horizon]

i only remember it when its foggy tho so i cant use it

never remembered and had clear weatrher

[serene reef]

actually lately most of my raids there are clear weather

to a point where its rare to see fog / poor visiblity

brb

[fervent ermine]

Just use axmc

[serene reef]

nah

t5000 has p much the same MOA

and the dropoff isnt that different

[unreal horizon]

same, bring me much joy

[fervent ermine]

Doesnt axmc have higher velocity

Muzzle velocity

[unreal horizon]

iirc its zeroed for bpz or something stupid though

if you care about that

[fervent ermine]

Bpz?

[serene reef]

m61 ^

[unreal horizon]

the scav bullet

i just use dvl, zeroes for m80 and dead quiet

[serene reef]

yeah ig it does have less dropoff

[serene reef]

m80 is fricking muah

wait

what

dvl* is fricking muah

is what i wanted to say xD

[unreal horizon]

agreed

[serene reef]

FMJ btw

[unreal horizon]

figured

[fervent ermine]

What About ap

[unreal horizon]

dw about it

aim head and if it drops who cares

[mint light]

t5000 dont one tap thorax

🏋️

[whole thistle]

It does if you use ultra nosler smh

[olive halo]

was the injectors case bigger last wipe or am i tweakin?

[left summit]

like bro what have they done to ap-20 ?

[mint light]

ap20 sucks

old news

[olive halo]

i guessss

[left summit]

i remember playing ap20 last wipe with a double barrel shotgun bcs it was always one hit thorax

[olive halo]

i mean ks still exists

[prime comet]

pull up to customs

matching taking forever

london servers go

[neon fulcrum]

im in customs rn

im having a good run

really nice gun tho

[prime comet]

i can almost guarantee i'll meet the goons now i dont have bp or m855a1

like 90%

[warped rapids]

first time i ever built a modded gun, and its been doing wonders, i dont know how i couldve lived only running mosins and scav weapons

[neon fulcrum]

hahahah very nicee less goo

[tepid garnet]

Based.

[bold kernel]

you have some decent gear on i think you should kit the m4 out a tad more

[tepid garnet]

If you’re running night vision maybe put an IR device on the gun instead of that flashlight?

[warped rapids]

what?

ir device

[tepid garnet]

Yea. There are infrared lasers. They are only visible to people with night vision.

[warped rapids]

ooh

i assume they must be very expensive xd

[whole thistle]

No

[tepid garnet]

Not really. About Same price as regular flashlights. If you’re level 15, you can get one from flea

[bold kernel]

less expensive than your bastion and bagarly

[tepid garnet]

Yea. You’re running really good gear for such a cheap m4

[warped rapids]

idk i got this gear by killing people so they were benched on my storage

[neon fulcrum]

3 PMC kills, some scavs and a sniper. M1A really nice gun

now i got a killa faceshield lol

[warped rapids]

and i thought to start spending more on my builds

my traders are lvl2 so ill have to buy from flea

[neon fulcrum]

yo accel, is 7.62x51 TCW SP good ammo? it feels and looks like it

[unreal horizon]

not really

[whole thistle]

It's extremely mediocre

It's like using 7.62x39 ps but with more recoil and a more expensive gun

[bold kernel]

no

m80 minimum if you wanna snipe with some decent ammo use 752 54r bt, lps works good, ps is good too

[neon fulcrum]

well fuck lmao

good key?

[whole thistle]

Not really

Very mid loot and it's in the middle of a hurricane

Literally the center of the reserve bunker

[neon fulcrum]

bru8h

k

[lofty oar]

Where are good places to look for good loot?

[bold kernel]

scav a reserve and go to the school building

do a room to room search and you will fill your bag up quick

[lofty oar]

Not very familiar with the reserve map but I'll look for it

[bold kernel]

barter for dorms marked

[whole thistle]

That 12.11 loot run

I have never seen anything spawn in there since like last year

[bold kernel]

found A gpu

just a single time

[whole thistle]

The tech room is the only room I've had anything in

The rest are literally empty every time for me

[bold kernel]

i didn't even know it was a place that people used to go to i just spawn by those bunkers near it and loot and extract

[whole thistle]

The 3rd floor rooms used to spawn mountains of military loot

[bold kernel]

Can i change to usec?

[whole thistle]

No

[lofty oar]

You can next wipe

[whole thistle]

You only pick faction on wipe or when you reset your account

[bold kernel]

When is next wipe

[bold kernel]

How do i reset

[lofty oar]

A wipe happens every 6 months

[whole thistle]

Late December probably

[whole thistle]

Website, go to your profile and click "reset game profile"

[bold kernel]

Can we vc and you show me

chit chat 3

[whole thistle]

Can't rn, I remember I had a dumb video of me doing it lemme try to find it

[bold kernel]

Okay

[warped rapids]

guys do you know a good sight i could use on my m4a1 that doesnt block that much vision as the 553

[whole thistle]

here lmao

[whole thistle]

Xps3, maybe ekp

[bold kernel]

dude

that had me cracking up

[bold kernel]

Made me deaf but thanks!

[whole thistle]

👍

[old salmon]

Anyone down to help a Day 2 with some tasks and learning the ropes? if so I am in 3man squad #1

[mint light]

exps3

[fervent ermine]

^

That’s the tan one right @mint light

I couldn’t go back to the other holo after using it if it is the tan one

[mint light]

yes

i luv tan

[tepid garnet]

I love the holo that goes skidi bi badop

[worthy pasture]

Got a ?, can I do mechanics introduction task as a scav?

[mint light]

no

[worthy pasture]

@mint light what are the requirements to do the task?

[stark vigil]

whats a scav war in practice mode

[tepid garnet]

You have to complete the task. That’s the requirement

[whole thistle]

Scavs fight each other

[dawn geyser]

Scavs Gratata other scavs

[whole thistle]

I hate this

[dawn geyser]

lmao

[stark vigil]

Ok thx

[mint light]

find a note on woods

[tepid garnet]

You have to go into woods and find his note, then extract with it.

[lusty crow]

what is some good medical supplies to bring with you to cover most needs? i have lots of the esmarch things for heavy bleeding but i also have som CAT tourniquet. whats the difference?

[whole thistle]

Cat is faster

[mint light]

speed

[lusty crow]

OHHHHH

lol

[whole thistle]

You can double click any med and see what it does @lusty crow

[mint light]

i use salewa, calok, army bandaid, painkillers, injector case, surv kit

[stark vigil]

And whats a tagged and cursed i heard its hard

?

[whole thistle]

Scavs hunt you down

[dawn geyser]

See you through walls

Actively make you their destiny

[whole thistle]

You can get tagged in an online game by going completely naked or pistol only

[lusty crow]

how is the army bandaid any better? i dont have one so cant see. i know it has 2 uses is that it?

[mint light]

being tagged on factory is funny

[mint light]

yes

[lusty crow]

okay

[mint light]

i am on team bandaid

[worthy pasture]

@tepid garnet right, I have to do it as my pmc?

[whole thistle]

2 uses is better, that is all

[lusty crow]

also what the use in bringing bandaids/cats when you have a salewa which does both?

[whole thistle]

Healing a heavy bleed with a salewa literally eats the entire medkit

It's ok for light bleeds though

[lusty crow]

oh okay

[mint light]

i like my salewa to live

salewa best medkit no cap

[lusty crow]

so for heavy bleeds:
esmarch is single and long use
cat is single but 2s quicker
calok is 3 use and quicker. any thing better?

[mint light]

zagustin

zagustin is 2 seconds, and it stops bleeds for like 3 minutes

[lusty crow]

okay

also how good is AFAK?

[whole thistle]

Congeal all of the blood in your body

[whole thistle]

Small salewa

[dawn geyser]

Morbius

[mint light]

not true

salewa and grizzly heal the most

afak is ok, dosent heal too much tho

as much as salewa

[whole thistle]

Replace your blood with propitol

[dawn geyser]

It's Morbin time.

[lusty crow]

okay so:
salewa/afak if i have them for health points
army bandaid for bleeding
calok for heavy bleeding
i dont have room in pouch for surgery kit so i wont bring one
anything else i need?

tryna dedicate pouch to healing items

[dawn geyser]

Light bleed isn't as important as heavy

It's acceptable to stop a ligth with Ifak/Salewa

[lusty crow]

okay

[dawn geyser]

Heavy you definitely want a dedicated stop though

[lusty crow]

yeah ik that much

[dawn geyser]

Especially for Ifak

[lusty crow]

are splints worth it? i never find myself breaking legs

[dawn geyser]

Very much, It's something you won't notice if you don't run into it

but when you do

You're in a world of hurt

[mint light]

i use surv for a splint

[dawn geyser]

If you run Surv kits, y

yeah

You can use it as a splint

Or you can go CMS/Allyu splint like some people

[whole thistle]

It happens a lot when you survive a fight

[lusty crow]

are basic splits sufficient though? they are cheap so i can just keep one in my bag idc if i lose it.

[dawn geyser]

They're fine

You can typically get away with only bringing in 2

[whole thistle]

Big split in the container is optional optimal

[lusty crow]

big splint?

[whole thistle]

5 use splint

[dawn geyser]

Alu splint

[whole thistle]

I was trying to edit that message but the enter button doesn't work on mobile

[lusty crow]

ooo thats nice.

so alu splints are 5 use ones yeah?

[dawn geyser]

Yes

[whole thistle]

Ya

[warped rapids]

aluminium splint has saved me so many times

when i didnt know the maps i used to break my legs a lot

or people shooting my legs

[dawn geyser]

Most of my starting wipe, my container looks like

CMS     | CMS     | Ibuprofen/Golden star
Grizzly | Grizzly | Ammo
Grizzly | Grizzly | Quest Key```

As I get further through the wipe

CMS |CMS |Ibuprofen/Golden star
AMMO |Ammo/AFAK|Sicc Case/Docs Case
Alu.Splt|Free slot|Sicc Case/Docs Case```

Typically

[lusty crow]

yeah see im still early so only have alpha case

[dawn geyser]

Oh I see

[bold kernel]

Get eod if you think you're gonna play tarkov very much

[dawn geyser]

Sales come often - wait for a sale

[hybrid anchor]

can somebody help me unlock jaeger ?

[warped rapids]

eod 4 the win

[dapper galleon]

M855 in pouch lol

[warped rapids]

ye im poor

[lusty crow]

yeah im not spending like £65 to get a 3x3 pouch xD

[dapper galleon]

You also get starting rep with the traders

.20 off the bat

[whole thistle]

At least you're not poor irl ayo

[warped rapids]

I am, cuz 1 week after i bought the eod, they started the victorian sale i think it was, so it costed 25% more at that time i didnt know they did these sales

[whole thistle]

Lmao rip

[bold kernel]

good stash for level 8?

[lusty crow]

also what is the injectors pouch? i assume its a container to store the pen style medical stuff

[bold kernel]

correct

[whole thistle]

You can keep a ton of meds in your container with 1 slot

[lusty crow]

how many does it store?

[whole thistle]

9

[neon fulcrum]

there u have ur millions haha

if u have no space put stuff in ur rigs or backpacs

[bold kernel]

car kit, bandages, cheese

[hexed siren]

anybody got any idea why the game can barely load into raid and when it does i just get like 1-2 fps, i recently upgraded my pc its still kinda bugety but it should be able to run the game

[dawn geyser]

What are your specifications?

[hexed siren]

1050ti rog edition(i play on low settings), ryzen 5 3600, 16 gigs of ram, im on ssd

[dawn geyser]

Did you previously have an Nvidia card?

[hexed siren]

yes, the card stayed from the old rig

[dawn geyser]

Reinstall your driver

Clean installation

Make sure it clears out the old stuff

[hexed siren]

i recently updated it

[dawn geyser]

Clean installation

[hexed siren]

you wanna tell me how to do it over pm or i should just google it?

[dawn geyser]

#community-support message
You can follow this thread

[whole thistle]

I love ddu 💞

[hexed siren]

thanks, hope it works

[stark vigil]

in practice mode the "as in online" is easier then easy?

in Ai difficulty

[whole thistle]

I think as online is in the middle

[stark vigil]

so medium?

[whole thistle]

Although idrk I've never compared

[stark vigil]

ok

[upper lantern]

does it matter whether i pick bear or usec?

[dawn geyser]

Sort of - Not really.

[bold kernel]

yeah bear if you want good clothes

[bold kernel]

usec if you want bad clothing

[dawn geyser]

You won't be KOS on one of the maps, but if you're farming rogues it won't matter

[whole thistle]

Do you want your character to say fuck or cyka

[dawn geyser]

USEC has English voice lines
BEAR has English & Russian voice lines

They have different starting gear

[upper lantern]

what is recommended?

[dawn geyser]

Choose who you like better is recommended.

Check their clothes, check their voice lines

[upper lantern]

okay thanks

[dawn geyser]

It won't affect gameplay much

[near escarp]

Honestly I know a lot of people that like bears over usec

[whole thistle]

Technically usec since they have the most miniscule advantage on one map

[humble hemlock]

can someone help me learn the map a bit with scav

[whole thistle]

I like usec so much more for the voice lines

[near escarp]

I would but not home atm, honestly for me just seeing a map of like customs for example and using that to guide me in raid helped

You can use the wiki which should give a map of wherever you want to play and the map should also have stuff like where to use keys, extracts, spawns, etc.

need 1 EU i just need to drop a quest item in factory and need a lil protection, anyone free?:)

[whole thistle]

You could just join a random factory lfg VC

[sacred bay]

The factory build they don't want you to know about

[lost sky]

Do you guys quest all the way to 42? 30 something and feel like the quests are getting zzz

[bold kernel]

35 im chilling

i only use traders to build guns nowadays

[lost sky]

Whats the big unlock at 35?

[bold kernel]

max therapist ig

[lost sky]

I know bp is easier when you get impacgs

The quest

[bold kernel]

it’s cool to have a crown

[lost sky]

But 36-42 is whatever?

Like some cheaper parts

From skier and mechanic?

[bold kernel]

vogs help too

yes

[whole thistle]

Free thicc case

[lost sky]

Is ammo an issue for you guys? Know like if you die a couple times gotta rotate ammo but

[quick owl]

Can someone show me some good builds on an AK, any series. I just want to see what to aim for for a good low recoil build

[lost sky]

Like one restock of bp is 1 raid

[quick owl]

Yea I usually stack up ammo after every other raid just keep buying them

[lost sky]

Hows the p90?

[quick owl]

Thanks

I’m saving that

[topaz forge]

good

[quick owl]

46 vertical huh

[alpine mural]

hmmm replaced canted with se5

[quick owl]

Does the accuracy change a lot depending on parts ?

And should I even be worried about accuracy

[bold kernel]

elaborate

[quick owl]

So far I know when building I know I’m supposed to go for ergo and low numbers on vertical and horizontal

[alpine mural]

so reallistically speaking, the se5 provides more benefits than the canted rk1 overall, youre currently sitting at 57 ergo, obv the RD704 already has low enough recoil although i believe that build can be lower, i think, the SE5 provides i believe 8 or 7 more ergo compared to the canted rk1's like 2 or 3?

what im saying is the RK1 canted overall is a worse foregrip compared to the se5

[bold kernel]

ok ok

[alpine mural]

se5 weighs a lot less as well

[bold kernel]

so what you're saying is

put an rk-2 on it got you

[alpine mural]

jesus christ

i mean you can

[fervent ermine]

Well fuck you

[bold kernel]

there

[fervent ermine]

Rk-1 canted looks cooler

[alpine mural]

im saying the benefits of the se5 outweigh the rk1 canted

[fervent ermine]

Drip > all benefits

[alpine mural]

looks good

[fervent ermine]

My guy if a 3 ergo difference affects you that much you have a skill issue

[alpine mural]

3 ergo a lot

[bold kernel]

im gonna be hip firing a lot with an rd

ergo won't matter

[fervent ermine]

^

[quick owl]

Ergo went down to 47

[alpine mural]

and ergo takes into account point firing

as well as weight

[bold kernel]

BRO

[quick owl]

Wasn’t it better before ?

[bold kernel]

it's only a few extra ergo it's not a make or break

[alpine mural]

he put on the chonker grip

[bold kernel]

drip over function always

[lost sky]

3 ergo isnt even .1 seconds prob

💀

[bold kernel]

i will not elaborate further

[fervent ermine]

Pointfiring?

How does it affect pointfiring

[alpine mural]

pretty sure it affects how long it takes to raise your gun when you do a sprint cancel unless its weiht

might be weight, i forget

[fervent ermine]

Pretty sure neither affect it

[lost sky]

For the thicc case ledx does everyone just go shoreline for it?

[fervent ermine]

If one does, it’s most likely weight

[fervent ermine]

Shoreline, labs or craft it

[quick owl]

Ergo affects how long it takes you to ready your weapon and your shifting

The building in this game is pretty complex all playstyle preference

No other game can match it

[lost sky]

The shoreline spawn common?

With the keys

Dont know resort so not sure if its easier to just craft the ledex

[neon fulcrum]

[jaunty fulcrum]

Does the airdrop land where you shot or where the flare lands

[dawn geyser]

I dig it

[jaunty fulcrum]

Mr. Sand man

[quick owl]

Spiffy duds

[neon fulcrum]

i was making some presets and looking trough flea and i saw that boonie hat. Had to try it out for the drip

[quick owl]

What’s the name of that face mask again ?

[dawn geyser]

Jack pyke

Or something

[quick owl]

Thanks

[neon fulcrum]

[quick owl]

10 wipes my goodness

[fervent ermine]

Do you play one raid per wipe?

[dawn geyser]

lol

[quick owl]

That’s extra clean

[fervent ermine]

Have you ever gotten kappa

[dawn geyser]

Only once

[quick owl]

I’m still at two wipes so I’m dirty

[tepid garnet]

I’ve played 1995 wipes

[quick owl]

Bro you must have a rash

[neon fulcrum]

i had one wipe super early but my pc was trash so i was factory main hahaha and now this wipe im playing again, probably next too

[quick owl]

From all those wipes

[tepid garnet]

No

[dawn geyser]

[neon fulcrum]

POV, played wipes since 1995

[neon fulcrum]

yes, cant expect much from a 1050ti, 8GB ram and a shit CPU. But thats why im back and pretty active rn wiht a new pc

[stone ridge]

cant get to the camp and then extract sucssesfuly... the map is big and confusing and im a newbie

[neon fulcrum]

[tepid garnet]

Pull up map genie on a second monitor.

I’d help but I have lots of shit to do irl

[neon fulcrum]

open interactive tarkov map, go in offline mode and try to orientate urself with the big rock and camps

or do that ingame, avoid everything

tada

@stone ridge

lol

[rigid canopy]

Go and run around the big rock
If the sniper is shooting at you, you are on the wrong side

[lost sky]

Is 30-35 pretty slow?

[topaz forge]

levelling? not really

[lost sky]

Yeah leveling

[formal vigil]

do i keep this

or not worth it?

[lost sky]

Think its like 560k exp

Thats prpb heavy as hell

[balmy elm]

does chamming have to be killing pmcs before 10:00 or after

[charred juniper]

my 1050ti is doing me decent nothing under 60 for fps

[lost sky]

Should be after its night

[balmy elm]

so before 10:00am

[lost sky]

Can you show me the time

Its military time

[balmy elm]

22:00-10:00 is what it says

[lost sky]

Yesh before 10 am

10 pm - 10 am

[balmy elm]

mannnn

[topaz forge]

can probably repair it decently if you have an armor repair kit, but its really heavy

[mint light]

repair it

0 armor protects from nothing

[lost sky]

How do you lvl up perception?

Heard timmy perception hears nothing and higher lvl is kinda crazy

[errant yacht]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Perception @lost sky

[inner mountain]

pick up all loot even if you dont want to keep it

[errant yacht]

^^^ maps with filing cabinets are great since don't have to travel much. Just pick it up and toss it out

[lost sky]

You guys feel like you can tell the diff

With perception hearing?

[neon fulcrum]

It was mostly the 8gb ram max and a shit cpu

[potent orbit]

How many stabs does it take to get to the center of a PMC/Scav’s heart?

[lost sky]

When servers are dead does that mean they have the min amount of players?

Like fact 4 people

Or can it be under 4

[drowsy thistle]

i dont need assistance sorry guys

[topaz forge]

not very true, max perception only increases your hearing range by about 7 meters

[lusty crow]

WOO i just dropped a fully gear level 45 with a beast of a gun in pitch black using stock pmm

[mint light]

what he packin

[lusty crow]

also i was naked with nothing but the pmm

and one mag of ammo in it

[unreal horizon]

that is one of the guns of all time

[mint light]

what the fuck

[lusty crow]

xD

[mint light]

that guy dicking around

vulcan night vision scope lol

drum mag

[lusty crow]

he saw me before i saw him tho. he shot me 3 times i hid back from the corner. then peaked and unloaded

he dropped like a sack of potatoes xD

[serene reef]

check durab

inb4 his gu JAMMED

[lusty crow]

nope

[serene reef]

this is 100% jam possible

guns dont jam at above 95% right?

[mint light]

93

[serene reef]

that was a thing, right?

[mint light]

its not gonna jam he picked up the gun and it wasnt jammed lol

he just capped him

[bold kernel]

good stash for level 5?

[unreal horizon]

no

[serene reef]

nope, sorry. Looking kinda poor

[unreal horizon]

you scav too much

[serene reef]

you should have at least 10mil

at the very least

[mint light]

scav warlord

[bold kernel]

thats what my stash is worth

[lusty crow]

not as amazing as my collection of tags

[unreal horizon]

trash

[serene reef]

nono, 10mil cash

[bold kernel]

wowow

[bold kernel]

aha

only level 5

[bold kernel]

barely ever

[unreal horizon]

literally not possible

you have too many tags to have xp low enough lmfao

[mint light]

holy cow i love insurance

[unreal horizon]

this you?

[mint light]

wow!!

homie just cappin

[lusty crow]

xD

good stash for 1st ever raid? lmao xD

[mint light]

wait

[mint light]

test drive m1a

[serene reef]

this one is half mine

[lusty crow]

yeah ill accept that xD

[serene reef]

i got 90% of that kill

[lusty crow]

i got the final shot 😉

[mint light]

test drive m1a lol

[serene reef]

yeah BT ammo leaves him at like 10hp on thorax

[lusty crow]

also the only reason i did that run was so that i wouldnt run into anyone while looting marked room. i got better gear than marked room and didn't use the durability

xD

[serene reef]

...?

[lusty crow]

I went there to loot 314 for some nice shit. Killed him instead

[quartz kiln]

I have a multitude of task that I kinda need a hand with, anyone able to help with said tasks?

[fringe dawn]

who can help me get mone psls

[quartz kiln]

get what

money?

[unreal horizon]

scav run

[quartz kiln]

go do scav runs

[fringe dawn]

how much is a labs card on flea

[quartz kiln]

idk bro, I can't even access the flea yet

[fringe dawn]

damn same

[unreal horizon]

cant get them on flea

[fringe dawn]

ph

oh

because I got one on a scav run

[unreal horizon]

but 150k from vendor

[quasi venture]

5.45 x 39 bp is that good ammo

[topaz forge]

meh

its ok

[quasi venture]

what is good ammo

for 5.45 x 39

[topaz forge]

bt, bs

[unreal horizon]

BS or igolnik

[topaz forge]

7n40

[mint light]

none

[topaz forge]

igolnik is ok but very low flesh damage

5.45 just sucks

[mint light]

5.45 dookie booty, avoid if possible

[quasi venture]

i don't know what ammo to use then that is what i been use that whole time play no wonder i can't kill players 😦

[unreal horizon]

!wiki ballistics

[broken quail]

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

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ballistics

Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.

[lusty crow]

Ngl I'm still so pumped about killing someone in the dark outgunned xD

I like this game a lot xD

[quasi venture]

damn they really need to fix the ammo in this game

[lusty crow]

Eh. Its pretty realistic tbf. Buy poppy ammo get poppy results

Only other factor kind of is barrel length

[unreal horizon]

i mean there's not really anything to fix

never gonna be balanced so who cares

[lusty crow]

What's unbalanced about it in everyone's experience?

[unreal horizon]

accessibility

[ruby adder]

Close this can of worms, right now

[lusty crow]

Yeah but everything is inaccessible early on. Once you hit 15 just get everything of flea no?

[unreal horizon]

like i shouldn't be able to go reserve and leave with 300+bp

no flea banned most ammo

[lusty crow]

Oh didn't know that.

[mint light]

lol

maybe two years ago

[lusty crow]

So do you more experienced guys go on roads specifically for ammo? Or specific loot? Do you bother just filling your backpacks with everything or are you not fussed

[mint light]

all armor above tier 4 is banned and a lot of tier 4 rigs, this includes helmets. good weapon attachments are not on flea or priced like 2-3x higher. best ammo u can buy is like ps12b or m80 off flea. nothing crazy

[mint light]

we buy bullets with traders

[unreal horizon]

shoot people in the face and take their stuff

[mint light]

fill bag with enemy gear and high value items

[lusty crow]

Fair enough. So don't care too much about looting containers unless you need specific items or know they have good stuff?

[mint light]

what

[unreal horizon]

typically you can make more off floor loot

searching takes long

[mint light]

loose loot and containers are usually pretty even

i loot like tech crates n shit

[ruby adder]

If you're entirely alone in an area and know you're somewhat safe for a little. It won't hurt to loot everywhere you possibly can within reason.. But also bear in mind your weight can disadvantage you & Dropping your bag just before engagement gives you away

[mint light]

dropping ur bag is fine

like unless ur sitting still for 5 minutes ur enemy knows ur there

[ruby adder]

it's beneficial to drop the bag due to the weight loss

But you lose a certain element of surprise if they don't know you're there

[mint light]

i never rat that hard

[lusty crow]

Rat?

[mint light]

wdym

[wanton blade]

Where can I find green and yellow keycard?

[mint light]

why

[lusty crow]

What is ratting?/being a rat

[mint light]

they are pretty rare spawns

[ruby adder]

First wipe, colleagues task?

[mint light]

just sitting still and scared of moving

[unreal horizon]

just go loothouse you make more

[ruby adder]

If for the task.. Just kill sanitar

[lusty crow]

Me 100% xD

[mint light]

yeah

rats usually suck so its fine

unless random ash12

[lusty crow]

Yeah i own the fact I suck atm

[mint light]

people just waiting in buildings lol

scared to lose pixel

[pale zinc]

Best scav spawn ever

[lusty crow]

Yeah tbf I do move a lot. I only stay still if I know there is someone near me that will slap me senseless so it's better to hope they don't see me xd

[lusty crow]

That knife is 1/8 of an mp5 with 30 round mag. That's top tier loot xD

[mint light]

i just dislike people with good gear playing for audio super hard

its not fun to do or play against

[pale zinc]

oh shiiiiiit youre right

[ruby adder]

The best experiences you'll have imo is voiping when you know pmcs are in close enough

[lusty crow]

I really want to get good at this game now. I want to get like 5 akms modded and t4 gear. Go out looking for fights till i have no stash room or my stash is empty

[ruby adder]

They'll either rush the bait, talk back or cower away

[mint light]

glorious made a pvp guide. and as a "pvp" player id say its pretty good

it goes into movement intricacies

[lusty crow]

Link?

[mint light]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9lG9tQrWnU

[lusty crow]

Ty I'll be watching that in a bit

[mint light]

freelook a lot

right hand peek better than left hand peek

hipfire

etc etc

[lusty crow]

Yeah I have learnt hipfire. Though sadly not been in many situations to try it.

[unreal horizon]

gotta position and make those situations

no decent player is gonna give them to you

[mint light]

good players are gonna not let u get a break

[lusty crow]

Well what I mean is that I have been in like 2 situation where I have known I'm in a fight mire than 2 seconds before killing or being killed

[unreal horizon]

ah fair enough

thats how a lot of them go tbh

cqc has a lot of mechanics you can hone but out in random encounters its mostly who sees the other first

[lusty crow]

Tbf if I know where the enemy is I'm not the worst but I'm not Chad level either. But I stand a 1/5 chance of winning

[mint light]

i lowkey wanna play woods

[lusty crow]

I like woods

A lot

[mint light]

its cool

u wanna play it

[lusty crow]

Not playing atm. 11pm for me.

But tomorrow if your around for sure.

[pale zinc]

What does the blue fuel can go for

[mint light]

keep it

[pale zinc]

Im full on scasv

scav

[lusty crow]

I did not...... oops

[mint light]

fuel always needed

[lusty crow]

What does it do and how do you get it?

[mint light]

makes everything in the hideout work

[karmic hull]

its for your hideout to power stuff

[pale zinc]

Bois I had the most dead scav raid ever

Nothing was looted and there were no bodies

[unreal horizon]

every raid sadly

[karmic hull]

as a new player i dont mind those scav runs , but now i play for 2 weeks i just do factory to get used to the gunplay more

and stash is full so no real reason to scav a lot

[lusty crow]

yeah atm i scav so i can try get the food items i need from interchange freely while learning the map

[pale zinc]

Is this worth or no

[unreal horizon]

not for money

[pale zinc]

I need two for car repair and like 4 or 5 for vents

Can you get this on flea?

[topaz forge]

apparently not

[dawn geyser]

Just no one listing it likely.

[gloomy sigil]

hey guys im new to this game and just about to re install it but i suck. any tips?

[dawn geyser]

Find a duo you like to play with

If you're not one for duo-ing

You don't have to take every fight

[gloomy sigil]

yer i would like to duo

but where do i go to get a partner

[dawn geyser]

You can try #pvp-lfg, or look in #❌〡community-servers for a friendo

[mint light]

sort by barters

shit be up for marked key

[topaz forge]

so basically you cant get it

[lusty crow]

Is the m700 any good?

just found a stock one

[warm sundial]

extremely accurate at a low cost with exquisite durability

[near bloom]

How do i stop bleeding after getting shot??

i know you can bandage and pop pills but im not sure if they are stopping the bleeding since my player still sounds in pain

[upper storm]

you probably have a fractured or blacked out leg if ya guy scream as you run, need too apply a splint for the fracture or surgery for blacked out. check health page

[near bloom]

are splints hard to come by?

or is there a easy way to get them

[upper storm]

should be available from Therpahist vendor, and common loot

[mint light]

if ur hurt u will breath hard

[upper storm]

id reccomend always carrying atlest 1 with you at all times

[mint light]

bleeding is in the top left it show u or u can press tab or go to health

[mint light]

its ok. bolt actions arent great but are super usable if u can keep distance

[near bloom]

ohh i see

[upper storm]

on your heath tab you can see all diffrent status symbols for eatch body part and read what the issue is

[mint light]

painkillers make u stop grunting in pain

[upper storm]

I remember my biggest issue was not realising there was diffrent types of bleeds 😛 didnt get why my bandadges didnt work ^^

[fringe dawn]

do you need blue fuel tanks for anything

[warm sundial]

nah

[mint light]

yes

ur hideout

[fringe dawn]

mane I just solds them'

[mint light]

for like everything crafting wise except lavatory

[mint light]

tuff

[fringe dawn]

very

[lusty crow]

now im sad. lay down in the middle of the woods to eat. as soon as i start scav comes a long and nades me then shoots me while im in the middle of the eating animation while prone 😭

[fringe dawn]

man got caught lakin

[unreal horizon]

click to cancel eating animation

soon as you hear steps

[warm aurora]

scavs cant nade mustve been a player, also does the rouges spawn with the sr-25 and if so what ammo do they hold

[mint light]

scavs can throw grenades lol

and yes rogues have sr-25

can have m80, m993, or ultra nosler

[warm aurora]

they can, huh ive never had a gernade thrown at me or found a gernade on a scav

M993!?!? bruh does glukar give them his weekly supply?

[mint light]

probably the 10 rnd mag variant

[warm aurora]

i mean 30 m993s thats good

im dealthy low on 7 51

rounds

[mint light]

buy more

[lusty crow]

was gonna say he shouted angry russian at me before hand xD

[agile helm]

scavs can throw nades often

[warm aurora]

interrsting

[upper storm]

scavs can also yell in fear too their own nades ^^

[warm aurora]

ive never seen a sr-25 from a rouge only from birdeye

[native violet]

can anyone help me find jeager

[mint light]

we could

[native violet]

Please

[jaunty fulcrum]

How much worse is the aim with half durability weapons

[topaz forge]

check the moa stat

higher = worse

[jaunty fulcrum]

Ok

[frigid finch]

killed a dude with this, hows it look?

[unreal horizon]

near meta

[frigid finch]

awesome

[frigid finch]

killed him with this...hows it look? im only 15 so i dont have access to the best shit yet

[unreal horizon]

weird

could use a better stock and suppressor

not awful

[frigid finch]

yea, supressor was hard just cause im not spending 300k on the qdc one lol

[topaz forge]

73 recoil is pretty bad

change the stock at least

zhukov or archangel

[unreal horizon]

could go bmd

[frigid finch]

?

[unreal horizon]

as a muzzle

[topaz forge]

like literally just this makes it fine tbh

[frigid finch]

no archangel on flea....i could do zhukov

[topaz forge]

ah

zhukov good too

[unreal horizon]

even better

[topaz forge]

better for recoil

[frigid finch]

with zhukov

[topaz forge]

ye 55 usable

[frigid finch]

i like the silencer...and i cant find a better one yet that i can buy...i miss being able to buy the qdc combo

[topaz forge]

ye the suppressor is fine

its like the third best anyways

[frigid finch]

duude...wtf...killed two bosses on shoreline and there was a third????

[topaz forge]

yes

the rogue bosses are a trio

[frigid finch]

i killed three, so i thought the third guy was it

[topaz forge]

ah lol

[frigid finch]

then i got one shot with level 6 armor in the thorax by m61

such fucking bullshit

just lost the that rd i built...love it lol
