are m67 frags even worth keeping, or should I just sell them all?
they are cool
ok I will keep
as a usec can i just walk into the rouge base and they wont kill me?
they will kill you if you enter the compound
you can stay on the road though and won't get shot
no
thanks
you just have to clear them, at least the ones with sightlines on you
just shoot them first lol
If you cheat in this game do you get banned in rust?
My roomate uses this pc to play tarkov and I think he got cheats for it, but know im banned on rust.
Where would I find thermite?
probably?
The thing is his account isnt banned on tarkov
Did you cheat in tarkov?
I got banned 9 days ago. I didnt even play that often. Not even 1k hours
lvl 20, trying to task if anyone wants to tag along. NA servers
Hi. im lvl 5. been playing about a week. Was wondering how often your guys weapons jam? Seems like the random weps I use jam quite often
the lower the durability, the more often itll jam
if u use low dura guns they jam. and during this halloween event rn guns jam 4x more
bigger mags have a "higher" chance of jamming but ive rarely used em so idk
ty for info lads
So dont really use scav guns... Unless you really wanna try one out, and I wouldnt with a full auto weapon... Anything under 91 has the possiblity of a jam, and it increases as that number gets lower
And ALL scav guns have pretty shit durability, unfortunately
dont play?
halloween is already over , remove it
people arent lol
What would be my best option to get weapons then?
appreciate the info, cause ive mostly just been using the SCav ones and not buying
Dead PMCs, and buying them from traders
yeah see this is mostly the issue...
especially full auto
that increases jam even more
low lvls usually do because they dont know how dura works
but then they gun jam and they like what da hell
i can count on 400 hands the amount of timmys i kill with scav guns
@glass dove Do yourself a favor... Bind Inspect to whatever key... and set to press for activation... then set clear malfunction to the same key but on release...
Hold that key til you get the notification of what the jam is, then release the key to auto trigger clearing the malfunction
im a L plus shift t gamer 4 lyfe
this is actually good advice lol
I dont think a single key is the default for me except reload
walk
ive learned a few things
I use ESDF
thats so weird
so i gotta rebind a whole bunch a shit
it's not weird once you're used to it, and it offers more keys at your disposal
especially if you have rather large hands
cause you now have more keys to the left of your hand, and you have to remove your left hand from the home keys less to hit keys you would normally ahve to move your hand from
If I have to remove my fingers from the movement keys for ANYTHING
that's bad
and I rebind accordingly
most keys u press are on the left side of keyboard
I dont hit any keys I need in a fight with my movement key fingers
the fucking discard key is delete by default
like whaat?
in a fight i im just moving and shooting anyway
I also cant hit 8-0 without moving my hand from the movement keys
so i rebind all that shit
i just stretch the thumb
you cant move the direction you want to lean by default without something dumb
or i just dont use those
put it on toggle
that's ridiculous
You still cant do this without some odd finger movements
I lean right with 'mouse scroll wheel click right' and lean left with A
How bad is it at trusting people in this discord if you que with them in the voice channel
Is this key of any use
well if they purposefully kill you and you take proof of it (clipping it), they get banned
wdym
take finger off a for like half a second ur on a lean peek u dont have to move
how do you lean left while moving left without doing something silly?
you cant
i dont lean left
I want to be able to move 100% of the time without having to do something dumb
yes, we know
because its on toggle
yeah, so is mine
You seem mad im doing it this way? lol
wtf
i only have to basically flex my index finger to click the wheel to the right
try it, if your mouse has it
I lean with q and e
so it's quick and easy
aswd are for movement
i meant clicking the button
it's a super easy button to click
and it doesnt effect your trigger at all
I mean probably but It would feel weird for me for a little bit
i just 'flex' my finger and it clicks
well of course!
i dont disagree, but now in any game im forced to use WASD i feel stupid lol
I rebind every game I play, which can be tedious
yeah
But im also a person who rebound nearly every default key in WoW to a Steam controller, just to see if I could
something like 150+ keys bound to a controller lolz
@vapid yoke but as I was saying, taking my fingers off the movement keys, if just for a second can be life or death... So I prefer doing things a bit differently
Although the amount of times it might save you over time is debatable, but if i can remove those chances just by rebinding, then I will
So for instance my Hotkeys 1-0... 1-5 are on the 1-5 keys... but then 6-0 are on the 1-5 keys +ALT
So that I dont have to reach over to hit 8-0 keys
My search and discard keys are the same... discard is just +ALT
I also have ALT as my major thumb button on my mouse
cause almost all games accept it as a normal key, but in games with complex keybinds, it allows ALT+, just like SHIFT+ or CTRL+
So pretty much all keys on my left hand act as at least 2 keys with the additions of ALT+ or CTRL+
not sure if someone answered but no not really, believe its only used for a barter
25k on flea
Keys are the only thing that gives me gear fear
I rebinded my lean key to my mouse button because I was getting irritated trying to move (WASD) and lean (QE) at the same time
Honestly, as you learn the loot of each map, you dont have to use keys to make money
I dont use any keys really
good keys = high traffic = gun fights with PMCs
I dont avoid fights, but I also hate fighting in Dorms lol
@drowsy grove The bulk of key usage for first wipe, or 2, are just the quest involved keys
Sorry for all the questions but do you guys think this would be a decent shotgun for Factory
Memes
that's what you use that for
Unfortunate
It's a bolt action (you got rack the bolt after every shot)
get a pump from Jaeger
dont go factory at all
if u need a quest just bring scav gear and go night
Oh right I need to unlock Jaegar, I have the quest I just have no idea if I'll be able to find it right
Be better off with a pistol over the Toz, but I still stand by getting a pump shotgun
I can take ya
🥹
im not doing a damned thing
just call me through discord when youre ready, ill start building a key @drowsy grove
What do you mean by "building a key"
I was about to say lol
Anyone else want to hop in on this? We could all probably sweep the entirety of Woods during my quest hunt
I'll respect that
i appreciate it
What servers do you play on?
USA
Splendid
Going to use an actual good weapon since I'll actually have a teammate this time
join the call
Is PS12A worth it? Or should I wait till I unlock PS12B
i mean its worth what you pay for it, but ps12b is the only viable round for the ash
okay, got it
thanks
is it easier to farm tagilla at last night?
any reason why? i just meant more to avoid other players as factory lobbies seem to be empty at night
lol he just destroyed me, i turned a corner and he was just crouching there and immediately killed me
i thought it was a player since he lean peeking...but nope, tagilla lol
whats the best way to kill him? i just went in with a shotgun and flechette
ill give that a shot next
yea he one tapped me to the thorax with level 5 armor on lol
Thanks to @drifting jolt for guiding me through Woods and getting me one of my quests done
🥹
Any time mate! 🙂
What's the difference between day Factory and night Factory? Do people just not run night Factory or something like that?
night factory is just slow
too many rat spots
to dark for no nvgs
too bright for nvgs
So basically the equivalent to 50 bush campers in battle royale games
It comes already modular, so you aren't spending 10-20k for a handguard, the ergo is high on it stock and most importantly it has a very good MOA. I have made 100-150 meter 1 taps consistently with it. Respectively the 5.56 version of this "TX15" is base 100k.
How risky is Reserve?
very
Ah yeah the map is locked behind a paywall on Mapgenie anyway so even if it was worth it I wouldn't of gone... unfortunate
Wiki has a map iirc
And mobile version
Based, thank you for the info
Not enough drip
does shturman always fire warning shots when spawned on the map?
so that info can be used to know if he spawned or not, or do you have to check sawmill every raid?
alright thanks, im new to woods myself and still learning the map
no
that means u would just hear gunshots when u spawn in lol
U beat me :(, go to bed😾
i know what an svd sounds like, and he fires in a 3 shot pattern... of course a player can do that but that's another story
Probs someone rushing sawmill🤷♀️
i have no idea what u people talking about sometimes
did they remove the event? I see there was an update or what
hi
tarkov servers are being a bit weird but atleast the event ended
how so?
laggy?
wild
How big was the update?
do player scavs also make phrases
finally lmao
Finally
should i keep this
is this normal?
yeah
I wanna trade 10 moonshine for marked dorm key
but it's dumb that one singular key for that of a fee of 1 mil
that's just great
I could do barter trade with jager but also loses the rarest reserve key
I need it for a quest
oh, nobody that I know off has one
about that...
my server and theirs does not have the best of ping
Malaysia
so yeah...
nope, terrible
even in Singapore, the closest server that I played mostly got around 150+ ping
recently
yep lol
just one singular task, I need to just move to a different part of the world
all I can say is, Asian server sucks
everyone is a douche and not a great time to play
did u use a vpn when u got tarkov
they will teach u the head,eyes way
what is that even mean lol
also Chinese community not friendly apparently
and don't speak English
9/10 chings cheats

This channel could work but that one more
alright thank you

Scavs can spawn with them

After punisher 4
LVL 30 after 'shaking up teller'
Damn I got a bit to go
I’m a beginner at labs (only about 20 raids on it). Looking for someone to run it with and learn from.
hello, I have maxed my hideout except for the air filtering unit, booze, bitcoin farm and solar power - how impactful are these? bitcoin seems like just wasting money, idk about the rest
is btc only worth it if you somehow get it early wipe?
okay, I will try to get air filter then, pretty expensive tho lol
if u wanna level skills its worth
what happened?
how much are bitcoin now in game?
L
common kwon W
we bonked him
should i trade anything when i just start?
What do you mean?
Like barter items?
Screwdrivers, stuff like that
B
You can check your keybinds in the settings
anyone from sea can help with this one? Just one quest so I wont repeat it again if I die lool
night raid
any one want to help with pocket watch mission? im level 26 and keep dying only to that mission? trade meta m4 with a1
wait how you even level 26?
lol thats the only skier misson i cant pass 😫
but yes level 26 and peacekeeper is stuck at .26.
that's prapor
or sorry yes
but how though
I thought you stuck at the second quest prapor gave you
also that's skier
my bad
lmao that be amazing ur righht
I was about to flip my head around to how you even level 26 and stuck at the bronze pocket watch
for a sec
but I recommend do night raids if you want to do quest where you have to plant stuff
or handing something off
people don't play at night since it's boring and hard to navigate without nvgs
lol done it at night like three times. im just having shit luck only with that quest
got shot opening cabin lastr one
but yea night raids it is
by a scav?
I wish I could help you but my ping to your server gonna be shit
lol customs jumping night raids
really by cabin?
yep
that's bad luck
or he's going to trailer park
yep, shoreline
4 more right?
yea
I salute to you
thank u sir
what server are you from though?
east coast
u?
Malaysia
dammm def
all good
tbh, asian server sucks big time
everyone doesn't talk and it's just a boring experience
maybe thats why night raids empty. over everyone does quest all the time on customs night
nope, they do it in daytime
I also tried to do that but instantly gets domed by the next guy
ikr
I love the voip thing but since Asian countries speak their own languages, it's next to impossible to understand each other
true dat. lol use google translate
nah dude
that thing blows
plus I much prefer you guys' sense of humor
I kinda wish Tarkov's server be like siege where server hoping doesn't make the game unplayable
but also kinda destroy others experience, kinda bad thing actually
THE EVENTS OVER?
yes
THANK GOD
time for coping noobs to come back and get pooed on
i killed a level 60 douyin
he got shit on
free mutant and airframe
@mint light you proud of me

It's not the wrong place to post
It’s not but you may get more responses in that channel
Yis
whats like the main difference between akm, rd, and mutant?
like what makes one better than another
do you know which is better between the mutant and rd if one is?
Yeah I think they're about equal
Rd is cheeper to build
And you can buy them earlier than mutants
Rd also takes 50 drums
Which the mutant doesn’t
👍 sweet thx
Rogues are only on lighthouse
The island spawn is really rare
They're always at the water treatment plant
There's a chance for the goons to spawn at the 2 story mansion
Kinda rogues but a bit different
No
You need range to kill them
Good luck finding one that isn't in line of sight of more of them though
if you want a cheap gun just bring the gornostay
spawns should be the same but im pretty sure the AI is different
might just be me but i swear they lose all braincells in offline mode
i could be wrong but thats just from my expierience
if you want to kill rogues there are some pretty good guides on youtube
with like loot routes and places to hide and run where you wont be shot

what was the update
Halloween is over

they cancelled halloween

Not a beginner, but I don't really see any other place where I could get a decent answer on my questions;
I've noticed that "desync" is pretty bad for me lately. Is it generally known to be worse again? If not, are there any settings that are crucial to be turned on/off to improve my situation?
I started playing this game 2 years ago and had alot of fun, even now when the servers wipe I still enjoy it alot. But I can't deny seeing a decline in my capabilities pvp-wise. Ofcouse inertia update en recoil update had their impact but I can't do anything when I don't even see the pushing enemy that is shooting through a doorway 2 m in front of me.
I've heard it's been worse recently, haven't played myself to check
You could ask in #community-support though they might have some solution
they made the server performance more “honest” for the lack of a better word
“desync” (it’s not desync) has always been this bad they’ve just been masking it
sorta unrelated but the recent rubberbanding is a good thing too
means the server actually cares about what the client is doing and says "ayo u cant do dat"
it is related
how do I not confuse my own footsteps/noise for other players? if I don't use headsets they sneak up on me if I use one I am constantly scared lol
maybe pick 1 headset to exclusively run to get used to it?
^^^
Which one yall using
yeee then 1st I have to figure out which xD makes sense tho
just pick the headset you like the most
M32
Comtacs
Try playing on servers where you have low ping but other than that there isnt much you can do
And a lot of experienced people will prefire if you know your position
So keep that in mind

is it worth to barter RB-BK mrk. for 5 moonshines ?
i would
if ur the key owner
and like scav case
I just found the key
And saw one barter on flea
the guy offers 5 moonshines for this key
Check what keys you need to trade for dorm marked
ok nvm, he no longer offers it, someone bought it
Its rb bk rb pkpm and one other key
Two of them are usually sold on flea and one isnt
Does anyone has to offer something for this key ? I wanna get rid of it 😄
what key
RB-BK mrk
Hey! I'm on Gunsmith #6 but I can't seem to flea market an RSASS. Is there some sort of trick I'm missing? Thanks!
I have a question about loot. Is there a box for medical equipment yet? I only see the scav box, ammo box, dog tag box and then the rest are just normal bags
I think this means the extraction point is possibly there but not guaranteed
There are several. You need to level up Therapist
aaaah okay thank you. I am running out of space lol. On to jobs it is then
I have a scav box. I was a bit extra with the hording though
I have like so much med supplies
Do you have to do the missions as a pmc or can u play with scav?
PMC only
any tips for the mission big sale? i keep dieing
There's boxes for pretty much everything
You just don't have access to them at level 1
You can find generic loot like shotguns or meds as a scav for quests, but not special quest items like the pocket watch
You also can't do kill or visit quests as a scav
"find x in raid" only
How’s it going
pretty good
halloween event ended and i had raid i extracted
i don't remember when was last such
Does anyone want to trade something for RB-BK mrk ?
Oh shit he's switching it up
Hi
ok we good
okay getting pmc bolt action kills is a lot easier than i thought on factory
Abuse the Timothies
Timothies?
ohhhh
you say that but i did just clap a level 2 and steal his kit..... kinda feel bad now xD
also helping with PvP in general
is there any easy way of putting bullets at certain spots in your magazine each time before raid?
no, have to go through them individually if you want an order
okay ty
need help with task introduction on woods,mp-133 shotgun found in raid
Buy it from jeager unlock him and buy it
Or kill Scavs
i need the introduction task for that
Yeah I think u need a certain level for that I examined stuff until I unlocked the quest
ight bet
One woods raid can finish a few tasks
Or if u still can’t find/buy them do a scav raid on reserve and go loot dead Scavs all over the surface
ight thanks
Uh
Why did you say that in bold
W congrats!

I just found a terra group labs acces card is that any good what do i do with it?
It gives you access to labs
High tier loot, but one of the hardest maps
Let’s you get into labs
Can sell it for 60k
Need 2 found in raid for a task
wanna do tasks and frolic @zinc canopy
Going to eat then sure
isnt inventory check bugged and only need one key
Idk i don’t do reserve tasks mostly
You could also buy the shitty broken ones from fence and give them to prapor
anyone wanna help a new player thru da game
ive never played a single match of tarkov yet
maybe
i should be on 15-20 min
alr
join vc 
cause game bad
Anyone know a way I can find lab keys easily?
all good
Thank you!
Test drive task finna make me go insane
The 60 meter requirement for the kills
Its like getting shooter born cucked all over again
All of my kills have been 59ms
All of them
just go woods or lh
Because you went in as your scav
if you look closely, you can see that the scav loadout had a tier 4 and tier 4 helmet, yet I spawned with trash
It’s literally your scav because your stuff if found in raid
Impossible to bring in raid found in raid stuff
Also you don’t have your pouch
?
did you look at both of the images
in the first image it showed my S C A V with high t4 armour
I spawned with shit
lol
game is broken, shocking
your scav doesnt spawn with tier 4
what it was is you did a rougue run in your previous scav
and it kept that scavs image
as the first one instead of your actual scav
how do you get down the west 3rd floor hallway?
cant
go from second floor
every wing has multiple staircases
ahh ok ty
usually 2 next to eachother and one at the end of the hallway
i mean...
I have spawned with t4???
lel
im trying to buy EOD, I have 135$ usd loaded on a bestbuy giftcard, i already own the base game so its 95 USD. And even with tax the game is less than the amount i have on the card
any clue on what I should do?
Is the team Wendy exfil ballistic helmet worth using or selling
not with a strandhiog
sell
glitch sometimes people can have scavs that appear as raiders, load in, and it's just standard poo scav gear
Oh ok makes sense
dose anyone know the lowest recoil loud muzzle is for a 5.56?
ok thanks
whats a good 7.62x39 gun that isnt really overpriced?
akmns
maybe ak103?
ill give them both a shot
stop flexing in the beginner help canal
no
its a weird flex cause i have zero idea what it means lol
mutant or rd honestly
i havent got a keycard ever
so dorp it in the chat not the help
mini mod
both kinda expensive though arent they?
rd is like 250k full meta
yes? overpriced
rd704 is literally a budget gun
including buying it for 115k?
yes
you have the meta build?
i mean so i can build it lol
what lvl r u
30
zhukov, prs or bmd, thats about it
your choice in muzzle and optic are expensive
if you're low level you shouldn't be spending near 260k on a gun
breu
its manageable, ty....if i ahve them, is there any issue with throwing a vudu/razor on it other then it being expensive?
no
i have quite a few stocked up since i have mostly been using throwaway guns as i quest
so 260ish without razor, and 340 with....cant wait until i can buy vudu for 45k lol
just use a valday
havent used that yet
cheaper alternative
it's a 1x/x6 with a nice large sight picture
eye relief too bad to use with auto fire
hip fire brah
whole point of vudu is auto with it
dont even know why i ever bother bringing guns....95% of the time im killed by a pmc its offscreen
default keybind for compass?
there isnt one
just press whatever number key you want it on when its in your special slot
hotkey it
Welcome back to hell
thanks😈
i doubt your SR is 5%
i meant 95 of the time im killed by a pmc
my sr is 40%
oh gotcha
like just now in woods, one shot in the head with m62.....there was literally nothing i couldve done lol
i will never understand why people say thats a good looting map....i swear to god i have a better sr on customs
how do i know where an extraction point is
a map?
@floral nimbus https://mapgenie.io/tarkov
are they ever gonna fix the ai shooting multiple bullets bug?
i dont know that that's a thing? hadnt heard that one
@floral nimbus The game gives you almost no help... just fyi
even the in-game maps completely suck
ive had it happen....and ive had quite a few people in here say its a thing
shrugs
Tarkov IS in beta still, technically
U mean like full auto or semi at a stupid rate
like where you hear one gunshot and get hit by multiple bullets
im gonna sell my violet for a rivals armband
That’s a bullet effect
Forgot the name but it splits across multiple limbs
Unless u legit are getting like individual shots
fragmentation?
thanks i realize that now.. just went into my first game and had no idea where tf i was at the whole time. the map helped tho. i was by a boat extraction
thats fragmentation, and doesnt apply to the thorax as far as i know...and what im talking about is getting one shot through level 6 armor to the thorax
Good ammo? Desync?
Most likely desync or lag I kinda know what ur seeing tho a instant death with no time between shots
it was shitty ammo, and both of those just change WHEN i hear the sound, not how many sounds i hear
Idk then man probably glitch if it was ai or maybe even cheater if it was an isolated incident
nah it was an ai who did it
I’ve seen boosted fire rate cheaters
Oh then it was just a glitch
Ai is busted as hell sometimes
yea quite a few people have said its a known thing
Yeah I thought u meant a player
That is a very common thing with ai
yea...just sucks when you die to that
If it was a good spot you’ll get it back if u insured
I Normally do when going to fight ai
Cause shit like that happens
@floral nimbus were you able to make it out?
its funny to me just HOW close this game is to being one of the best games ever made...and it seems like they refuse to put in the little amount of effort it would take to make it happen
i wouldn’t say refuse simply that this game may be hard to work on in general
i did!!! i didn't come across anybody though. and i was in for like only 6 minutes just trying to figure out what to do pretty much the whole time so wasnt a great first time lmaooo
First handful of raids are always the best
you can opt to do an 'offline raid' if you click the box on the screen after the map selection screen
everything you take in doesnt count... fire a 1000 bullets if you want, you get em all back
lol i mean they designed it....so not really an excuse imo
im tryna figure out why i grabbed 4 rolls of toilet paper and what to do with them now LMAO
sell to the rapist
youll craft with them later

Not much
Therapist
Go to therepist
?
😉
😦
should i just sell everything i found
Take a screenshot
What did you find
i do that
Some stuff could be useful
how do i screenshot
Win Shift S
Me too I sell everything I find even though I’ll need it for later
Press windows G I think
110k
more than one rouble id imagine
Waduhek is windows g
@floral nimbus it takes a while to understand even just the basics of tarkov lol
^
like a few hundred hours to just not be completely lost on most maps and with most items.....and that doesnt even began learning how to pvp lol
so that secure container at the bottom is very worth using... anything you put in it you keep if you die
^
I would take 1 less mag, and then put a full stack of the bullets in the secure container
i know that you’re a new player and all but it’s a little funny seeing the loadout you brought in haha
So if you die, you dont die with ALL those bullets but just a few, and the ones in your secure you keep
Also put your cheese (AI) in there because you’re low level rn
they did pretty well
Id hotkey the cheese, cause they can buy those from Therapist, and they're not super expensive
You should probably watch some introduction vids for tarkov on YouTube. They’ll explain the basics in depth with visuals
this game never lets me have two good nights in a row
don't bring food or water, bring a car kit in your secure container, and put the painkiller and ammo in your secure
It depends what map you’re playing
true
Could you folks quickly review my weird ass loadout
Like woods, reserve, customs you shouldn’t need to bring any food or water
Take off the helmet
You don’t need 2 primaries
Won’t save your life and you hear less
DVL10 AND MP7 SAYS DIFFERENT
The kolpak helmet is also basically foam, it’s pretty much bait for new players
That’s clearly not those two
leave the kolpak and wear the m32s instead, the kolpak isn't gonna stop scav rounds. also yeah, don't take 2 primaries, and bring an esmarch tourniquet. getting a heavy bleed and not having anything to fix it sucks
Salewa is for heavy bleed + light bleed
i think one thing that all beginners need to be taught over almost anything else is that a headset in game is near mandatory to play
And having one primary slot empty means you can just quickly grab one off a scav kill
get rid of the kolpak and shotgun just wear a headset and mask to cover up your bald face and you’re set
Interesting, alright
it uses a ton of its HP to heal heavies, so just grab an esmarch
don’t listen to anyone at your level no helmets will help id say level 4 is the minimum
you’re set though
also don't use the SKS. its what you see all the noobs using but its not easy to use and its pretty expensive. the kedr is fantastic if you go for legs and use the best flesh ammo you can get though. what map you going to?
Customs, going for some scav kills
yeah definitely use the kedr then, bring more mags though. using scav guns puts your life at extreme risk because they jam a lot
If you can afford it/buy it from traders put a laser on the kedr, you can run n gun scavs pretty easily
also you want to have an empty slot in your chest rig for the magazine you take out @drowsy grove
i mean realistically as long as its on single fire, you should have zero problems killing scavs, and when they are that new, there is no way in hell a jam is what is going to get them killed against a pmc
Does this work as a mask, it's the only one I have access to to purchase
true
so sherman is on lighthouse?
My first PMC death was because my gun jammed ironically enough
This was during the Halloween event though
yes it just looks goofy is all, cold fear is better
woods
to a scav?
I just got killed by him on lighthouse, swear to god
Now there should be less jamming. Until before Halloween i used 50/100 durabilty guns a lot and didn’t jam often. Still wouldn’t risk it
what does the name say? it was probably either one of the goons or a rogue
said Sherman, maybe they have the same name? Idunno
yea i use rogue guns a decent amount as i quest, and they would almost never jam...but during that event i couldnt get through a clip without them jamming
oh sherman is a rogue name
No I mean like I got killed by a PMC due to a gun jam as my first death being killed by a PMC
Also new loadout
oh word
Sp7?
my brother in christ he is like level 3
i mean unless they were naked or brain dead, you were extremely unlikely to win that fight anyway
Tf is SP7 is that an ammo type or a headset
ammo
when you encounter PMCs, aim for the legs. always aim for the legs
Wait I’m seeing it now
9x18 ammo, its the best flesh damage in the game
We jumpscared each other in Factory
338 leg meta ot
this is your bible, study it, learn it, love it
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics
The lords word
much better btw hatsune place the drink and esmarch in your pocket and vest and keybind it!
Can i ask why you’re not turning in iskra for quest and bringing it in raid instead? You can use other food items
new player advice I wish I'd known at the time. I died so many times shooting PMCs in the thorax when I could have very well shot them in the legs and probably killed them
Yeah I started my leg meta only gameplay after using a ks23 for the first time last wipe
I have 1.3k bp 200m62 150m61 and probably won’t use any of it
I don't have a quest that requires it at this moment
oh I just aim thorax with ks23 and 1 taps consistently. I kill them to the arms
keep it
holy hell that is a lot
Alright time to go into Customs, wish me luck
Idk why i see it’s yellow found in raid maybe im bugging. You need 3 for a jaeger quest if you haven’t done that already
I’ve killed the juicers on factory a lot but I’m constantly too heavy in any gear but naked kedr
are you familiar with customs yet? if not, I'm sure someone would be willing to hop in a vc with you to at least guide you around
It's (unfortunately) the only map I'm semi-familiar with
Once u get jeager but psv 9x18 it is the 3rd or 4th best leg meta for kedr
I'd offer but tbh I only really know how to get to dorms from every spawn and dorms is the last place you should be going 
its a rough map when you are new as there are like, 3 choke points that you have to go through to get to exfil....i despise woods, but most people feel its an easier beginners map
Woods is fun if u know where the loot is and where the people will be
Not really tbh
Yeah it rly isn’t for a good player
I’m a sub par player who can’t buy it so
lol i know woods extremely well and i die more on that map then customs to just randomly getting sniped in the head....i hate it
given I have no access to any of those ammos its quite a bit
U gotta move around the edges more then I rarely get killed without being able to put up a fight
on god I die on first contact a lot
lol trust me, i try....im just super unlucky on that map...i fucking hate it...id rather do customs loot runs
woods is fun to do night raids in and thats it
Try shoreline if ur level 15 with some money
Buy some keys and find a server
that and sniping, but tbh lighthouse is better for sniping. sit on the rocks by rogue camp and plink rogues and PMCs in the camp
ima trade my violet for a rivals fr
Vpo with ap-m is good for that
vpo with apm 💀💀
lol hate that map even more then woods, just cause its boring
Well you want loot and no pvp
AP-M's accuracy is doodoo, you'd be better off with a suppressed mosin
Idk what ur using then I farm rogues with apm
you’d be better off slinging rocks at a distance than you are with apm it drops
apm also blows dick lol
Vpo is amazing got me through so much shit
no it's not
and it has an accuracy penalty
tell them!
its great as a casual's gun out of the vpo209 but other than that its dookie
You cant hit anything outside of a 100 meters
For 18k? That shit’s cheaper than elon musk’s twitter check mark
you have to have PK3 for ump APs, meanwhile you can get AP-M off flea. its pretty expensive yes but its available on flea
And like .30 rep, his quests are also dog shit
i would rather run shitty ak103s with ps ammo over a 200 recoil vpo with no accuracy
buy eod
eod
his quests are among the easiest in the game
Now you’re losing me
edge of darkness edition
Ik what eod is, im not about to spend $50 on an upgrade
imo unless you broke broke, its almost mandatory to buy
this
it helps but you can play fine without it
removes a shit ton of tedium from the game
go sell feet pics or something to get EoD
i wouldnt play without eod personally it makes the game less of a hassle and i dont wanna grind
yup
1st wipe i maxed traders with standard its not a huge deal once you get punisher case
just the level 4 stash to start out with makes a HUEG difference, and the case
if u get lvl4 stash u will never have stash concerns
oh absolutely, I was suspicious of it at first because I thought that it was pay to win but nah it makes shit SOOO much easier
I still do because I horde chest rigs and never sell attachments or guns
i mean i have thicc cases too
I actually need to do more offlines, I was doing offline 1v1s with a friend of mine who's pretty good and I was improving a lot
I don’t play that much to justify the upgrade, but I might get it if they have one last sale before streets
lol "before streets"
oh god how fast does skill decrease happen? I won't be on for like a week and I'm scared I'm gonna come back to like, 2 levels down on endurance 💀
it dosent decrease like at all
Assuming thats when eod will be unavailable
idk if thats even a feature
memory skill says it prevents skill decrease, but i wasn't sure if it was actually implemented
thank god
it’s not gta haha
Would this be a proper channel to ask for help in the game? Like doing a run together I mean.
should i buy rivals with my violet
that would be #pvp-lfg, but asking here is fine too

make someone's day, go for it
when i got violet i busted fr
