[jade hamlet]

so if your bag is insured and in the raid you put stuff in it and drop it does all that stuff comes back or just the backpack

[potent solstice]

that quest is a fucking joke LOL

[potent solstice]

just the backpack. you can't insure anything found in raid cause you cant insure it in that menu ya feel

just what you click and pay for is whats insured

[tepid garnet]

Oh no. That’s a super valuable quest key

• ledx spawn I think

[wet shale]

help me cheese it and i can help you with any task you have

[tidal kraken]

is this any good?

[earnest spruce]

what ammo do you plan to run it with?

[tidal kraken]

flechete

[earnest spruce]

Yeah it can work well

[tidal kraken]

or should i use any other ammo?

[earnest spruce]

the most common effective ammo is flechettes

but if you can some how get your hands of them

ap 20s

but if you broke go with leg meta and do magum

[tidal kraken]

are they sold by traders?

ap 20s?

[earnest spruce]

sadly only findable and craftable

but they slap

flechettes are the second best so i think you should be fine

the only thing is if you plan to keep making that build

[tidal kraken]

its not that expensive i will see if i will like it

[earnest spruce]

k im bit out of the blue of tarkov atm tell me how it goes

[barren saddle]

Anyone have hotel 206 key for streets that can open it for me and a friend? (west coast NA)

[bold kernel]

why is nobody selling this key for rubles, but all some weird exchange?

[earnest spruce]

try to filter out bartering

[bold kernel]

Did it.. no offers

why everyone barters wtf just sell for rubles?

[small zenith]

any1 got directors office key and wanna help me out

[bold kernel]

bruh why 100k xd

[tepid mulch]

i killed some guy an took his gun, why cant i sell it on the flea

not found in raid

[round thorn]

best place to find a car battery?

[devout dragon]

Can somebody explain to me why the effectiveness on every class is 3 even though the pen value is super low. I'm not new, just stupid.

[earnest spruce]

best headset

[bold kernel]

daum just found 2

lol

[austere hound]

That eftammo system isn't a pen chart. It's the effectiveness against that class. On shotguns though idk what they're smoking. They're insane. Just use this

https://tarkov-ballistics.com/charts/penetration_chance_by_class.html

[devout dragon]

Alrighty thank youuu

[round thorn]

best map to find a car battery?

[unique plover]

Interchange, back of oli

Most consistent spawns I’ve seen

[round thorn]

tysm

[unique plover]

You can get lucky looking through tech crates. Customs has lots and reserve has a few

[warm nebula]

Whats the difference between a sicc and a docs case

What's the difference between a sicc and a docs case

[unique plover]

Sicc has more room, but you can’t put a lot of intel items in it

But you can put dog tags in it

[warm nebula]

So it has more room but less items?

[unique plover]

Yeah

You can put SAS, SSD, intel, GP, btc and such in a docs case

[warm nebula]

Dow does that work

[unique plover]

Can’t put those in a sicc case

[warm nebula]

Ohhhh as In less types of items

[unique plover]

Yeah

Sicc case is 5x5 I think

[warm nebula]

Kk ty

It's just so I can keep tags keys and what not

And money

[unique plover]

Yeah

Shoreline is usually the best for the sicc case

Because of the sheer amount of keys for the resort

[warm nebula]

Like to get or to use it in

[unique plover]

To use it in

[warm nebula]

Hmmmm I will keep it in mind but I only know woods and factory haha

[unique plover]

You’ll eventually go to shoreline and learn to hate it like the rest of us

[warm nebula]

I got lots of quests on there so I gotta learn soon

[round thorn]

i already hate shoreline

[warm nebula]

Isn't it the one with the mansions in

If so I have played it like 2-3 times

[unique plover]

Shoreline’s big POI is the resort

[frank stone]

who do i turn folder 52 in to. I have eod and im lvl 19 if that changes anything

[unique plover]

The one with the mansions is probably lighthouse

[frank stone]

like whats the differenve

[unique plover]

I think skiier gives you more money, therapist gives you more xp

That’s not for chemical part 4 though right?

[bold kernel]

anyone wann duo or squad up?

[frank stone]

no its for supply plans

[still tide]

Sorry to interrupt guys but I’ve been following all the online guides for the Gunsmith 2 quest. I have all the recommended parts but recoil is still to high. Does anyone know what’s wrong? One of the guides was from this wipe also.

[frank stone]

fold the stock with middle mouse click

fooled me for a bit too

[unique plover]

Skiier gives way more money

Therapist gives 3000 extra xp

[frank stone]

i have 8m so i just want the xp

ty

[unique plover]

Therapist it is

[jade hamlet]

where can i find iskira ration packs and emelye rye coutons guys ive found 1 or 2 in woods but do u know any place specific

[warm nebula]

Anyone know the ammount of times it's worth doing car extracts?

[frank stone]

4-5 i think

[unique plover]

Whenever you’re over there and want to extract

[frank stone]

theyre always worth taking if your near imo

[unique plover]

Woods v extract is one of my main extracts honestly

[warm nebula]

No like for the rep

[frank stone]

for just rep its 4 times

[still tide]

Fuck man I’ve tried this also, didn’t work. It’s definitely the recoil, it’s too high. Makes no sense since everyone else used this build and had the proper level of recoil.

[devout dragon]

Doing Spa Tour part 1 atm, anybody recommend any specific 12ga ammo to headshot scavs or deal with pmc's?

[warm nebula]

I might have been a bit of a naughty scav

[still tide]

Ya just tried again, fuck

[unique plover]

Magnum buck

[frank stone]

try making sure it has enough durability?

[still tide]

Is there a certain time table for the V exits?

[bold kernel]

Anyone wann play with me for 1 or 2 hours? im new and no one is responding to lfg

[devout dragon]

Why isn't 6.5mm a better choice because it has more pellets and less negative recoil stats

[warm nebula]

Big mag and just spam fire

[still tide]

Ya man full durability, here check it out

[unique plover]

It’s the wrong gun lol

[still tide]

Fuggg

[unique plover]

That’s a aks74UN

[still tide]

Thanks a ton bro lmaoo

[unique plover]

haha no worries

[unique plover]

Magnum buck will be better to defend yourself against PMCs

[warm nebula]

I was just about to say isn't it the wrong gun lol

It gives you a gain for the mission

[unique plover]

You can also use a slug

[devout dragon]

How come? I don't know the difference in performance between 8.5mm magnum buck and 6.5mm express

[unique plover]

Idk I don’t use slugs that aren’t ap20

Uh pretty sure magnum does more damage

[devout dragon]

Oh ye ur right, thank u

[warm nebula]

I'm cheep and use normal buck shot but just a ton of it (keep clicking untill they stop moving) hahah

[unique plover]

Whatever works

[bold kernel]

should i pick bear or usec?

[unique plover]

I just like using ammo that’s (relatively) cheap that lets me stand a chance against PMCs

[warm nebula]

I also more embarrassing to die to a naked with buckshot

[bold kernel]

im so bad i don't think bear is gonna make a big dif

but idk

[unique plover]

BEARs have better drip but USEC allows you to play lighthouse without getting beamed by rogues from 450m

[warm nebula]

Usec

Tbh idk

But usec I better in my opinion (mainly ammo types)

[unique plover]

Eh

[bold kernel]

yeah

[unique plover]

Difference in starting gear is negligible

[bold kernel]

i mean i played usec before and still played ak so idk

[still tide]

Fuck, still doesn’t work. All the stats are correct also wtf.

[unique plover]

You’re gonna run through it all in the first few raids

[warm nebula]

It's a small difference but it helps

[unique plover]

Wrong gun

AKS-74U brother

[still tide]

That’s what I used before man

[unique plover]

It said it was a UN

[still tide]

Wait wait wait fuck

[warm nebula]

@still tide bro he gives you the gun that u need when u start the quest

[still tide]

I’m dumb asl

[unique plover]

lmao

[still tide]

Lmaooo fuck thanks bro

[keen rock]

what is a cheap but good starter loadout to get

[unique plover]

Sks with PS ammo

[still tide]

I sold the original gun since no room, thought I’d just get a new one

[unique plover]

But you can’t buy PS now

[warm nebula]

Odds that he didn't accept the gun from him

[warm nebula]

Haha

[unique plover]

You can buy a 74u from traders

[keen rock]

alr ty i will try that

[warm nebula]

I hate scav rep

Wanna knowwhy

[unique plover]

Cuz you’re a bastard traitor scav

[keen rock]

i sometimes kill scav by accident

[warm nebula]

BC I saw a scav with a minty svd and my finger was twitching I wanted it so bad

[keen rock]

they jsut run straight to me like idk

[warm nebula]

But I gotta get to be a good scav

[warm nebula]

NO NEVER

Deff not me

[keen rock]

but can you fix the rep?

[warm nebula]

Yes

I have fixed my rep by -3 points so far

[keen rock]

mine is like -0.44 on fence ;/

[warm nebula]

Don't ask how it got like that

Idk either

[keen rock]

wait -3?

[warm nebula]

Yeah.....

[keen rock]

bro how

haha

[warm nebula]

It can go to like -6

[keen rock]

well atleast u trying to fix it now

accidents happen

[warm nebula]

Well I only started this wipe and just shot anything that moved haha

[keen rock]

i did the same 1 week ago

[warm nebula]

Yeah sure it was totally all accidents

[keen rock]

[warm nebula]

All accidents

[keen rock]

missclick

ALLL FO THEM<;c

[warm nebula]

OK CALM DOWN HE HAD THE LAST QUEST ITEM I NEEDED

[round beacon]

looking for a buddy to run customs with

[warm nebula]

He had to go

[round beacon]

havnt played in two wipes

[keen rock]

understandable

[warm nebula]

Then I got a few angry messages

Also I killed santa

But we don't talk about that

[keen rock]

no u cant

[warm nebula]

Well I did

Took his bag beard and hat

[keen rock]

i also got a white beard lmao

[warm nebula]

Santa got glocked

But I'm good scav now I only kill trators

[wicked marsh]

is survivalist path junkie (15 scavs under stimulant) bugged?

i was popping morphine and propital, do those not count anymore?

[devout dragon]

What do I put on that empty stock slot? Whenever I click linked search it just lists more stocks to use which obviously won't fit onto my chosen stock

[warm nebula]

Maybe a cheak pad or buffer tube

[warm nebula]

Deff don't make good scavs kill other scavs so I can kill them for +scav rep >:)

[devout dragon]

Already got a buffer tube and a cheek pad or recoil pad won't show up on linked search, I'm probably being stupid rn but idk why

[warm nebula]

Maybe change the filters on the left of the linked search (like where you can select what type of attachment like when u have a gun you can search by ammo or mags/whatnot)

[devout dragon]

I have but all it lists is other stocks and buffer tubes :p

[warm nebula]

Well that's as much insight as I have haha

[devout dragon]

Haha it's no worries, I appreciate it nonetheless 👍

[warm nebula]

I'm pretty brain dead in this game only just started. My motto is "monkey see monkey shoot monkey loot"

[devout dragon]

Lmao

[warm nebula]

Np

Got the right gun? Hahaha

[still tide]

Ya I pretty much avoid combat unless I’m in a perfect scenario and I’m going up against scavs

[warm nebula]

I don't avoid or play safe hhaha

[devout dragon]

Just trying to lessen the recoil as much as possible so was just curious what I could put in that empty "stock" slot

[warm nebula]

Got like 25 survival rate

[warm nebula]

Is that for the gunsmith quest?

[devout dragon]

Nah just for a quest to kill scavs with headshots on shoreline, just wanted a semi decent shotgun build

[warm nebula]

Ahh ok

I had a therapist quest to kill 20 scavs with a shotgun for a Day quest reward was kile 4k xp and 100k

Lets say factory was a blood bath

+surgically removed tagillas legs a couple times

[barren saddle]

I have hotel 206 key can open if someone can open car dealership closed section (west coast NA)

[lilac grail]

got juiced from the 15k scav box drop

[keen rock]

-rep*

[warm nebula]

No

[bold kernel]

Do I have to do vitamins part 1 before chemical part 4?

[keen rock]

what shouldi complete first quests or hideout

[warm nebula]

You get +rep if you kill a traitor scav

[keen rock]

fr?

okay imma make my friend kill scavs so i can kill him

that definitely gonna work

[warm nebula]

Yep if you kill a scav that has shot AND hit you or killed another good scav then you can kill them for +0.03 fence rep

[warm nebula]

If it works lmk

[keen rock]

sure i will doe that haha

anyways have a good night

[warm nebula]

That would be great I can't really afford the test it

[warm nebula]

Yep to you too

[lilac grail]

Just executed tagilla was worth the -1.5 hit to my 7.0 karma for monkey mask.

[warm nebula]

I sold my monke mask

Kinda upset about that

But sold his gun for around 200k that good?

[frigid pulsar]

Can someone help me with missions

Woods night

EU

Please

[thick cape]

Hey, you’ll find more people helping in #pvp-lfg 🙂

[frigid pulsar]

Ok thank you

[thick cape]

Do I need to be a certain level?

[whole thistle]

Have restarted your game

[whole thistle]

I think so

Check requirements

I'm a fucking idiot. Sorry, im only lvl 32, not 35 lmao

you can use the quest tree online to check that, just lookup tarkov quest tree click the website and click the task you want and itll draw a path through all the ones required

[tidal kraken]

is this some specail bot drop?

[placid saddle]

@ember sparrow

[ember sparrow]

I @ you so you could see I figured out my issue

[placid saddle]

most likely killed a pmc and looted his gun

[placid saddle]

well ik you did just letting you know for future reference

[ember sparrow]

Looks like rogue loot

[tidal kraken]

it have found in raid

[ember sparrow]

Then that is probably what it is

[placid saddle]

were you at water treatment, on lighthouse?

[tidal kraken]

i was on shoreline weather station

[placid saddle]

goons?

[tidal kraken]

and he had bandana and pipe in mouth xD

[ruby karma]

I've been always having 13~15 minutes start in raid per scav runs, but today ive gotten consecutive 25~27 minutes start on the same map. So I was wondering if scav karma effects how much time i get in scav raids.

or if i just got lucky

[tidal kraken]

on which map are you playing?

[tidal kraken]

big pipe is this boss?

[whole thistle]

its fir so yes

[whole thistle]

yes

thats mr pipes mcx

he spawns with 2 other usec bosses

[tidal kraken]

i killed 2 then the other one run away

[whole thistle]

did you also kill knight

[tidal kraken]

probably not i dont know i was running away too cuz i was almost death

it did not say on the end of the raid

[whole thistle]

damn should've looted them

they have really good stuff

[tidal kraken]

thanks for the info for the next time 🙂

[fresh vale]

are Nixxor lenses rare loot you can get in tech crates?

I don't think I've seen a single one and I need 8 for security lvl 3

[placid saddle]

theyre very rare

[vital oasis]

is usec stash key worth using? ive never found anything good in there lol

[last hollow]

What do I do with extra keys?

[scarlet ocean]

found BTC should i just sell it to a trader or is it needed down the road

[merry panther]

How do you guys feel about the following statement:
The only way a new player is going to kill another pmc is to bring a shotgun to factory and just kind of get lucky. A new player really has no chance out in the open.

[whole thistle]

keep if they're needed for a quest or have good loot or something, if they're useless then sell

[whole thistle]

not true at all

[whole thistle]

just sell to therapist

[brisk vigil]

what do i sell out of this

[cyan apex]

nothing

apollo and charger

just sell those 2

if u just started

[mighty thicket]

why is every PMC suddenly camping pawn/heli at reserve? ive died 3 times today out in the open on scav runs to PMCs literally hard camping from a pawn 2nd story window with 8 minutes left in raid

[tropic ledge]

1st wipe lvl 5, i have so much loot for upcoming task should i purchase a junk case for 1.1mil and whip out my money or sell things off that are for ladder tasks

[cyan apex]

depends on how much u have

before buying u must alteast save 500k

if u have space

if u dont buy it and make space go on more raids and make money

[tropic ledge]

@cyan apex I have sitting on a millon so i need to make another 100k to by it from therapist

@cyan apex anything loot for task over lel 20 i have been selling

[cyan apex]

As you said, its your first wipe. So don't mind those stuff yet.

But keep items like graphic cards or ledx if u find

[drifting jolt]

i have 3 junkboxes... so yes...

[cyan apex]

If u have flee u can make 1 mil after 2-4 raids ez

[lethal heath]

There’s some things that are worth keeping more compared to other but it’s hard to know tbh

Like if you get ski mask with holes and stuff just makes your life a lot easier later on

[sharp yew]

any tips

[drifting jolt]

as far as...?

[barren saddle]

Looking for help opening car dealership closed section (can help with sanis room, hotel 206, marked, etc.)

[sharp yew]

pve/pvp

i suck

ive been doing some practice

[drifting jolt]

learn the maps, retreating is always an option, dont take fights you cant win

[sharp yew]

to get better at scavs and stuff

[tropic ledge]

@drifting jolt @cyan apex thanks guys I'm going to buy the case and save the really hard stuff to find

[drifting jolt]

good luck!

[sharp yew]

ok ty, i didnt even notice until rn u have specific extracts u have to go to, I was just going to random ones and then getting mad when it didnt let me leave

[drifting jolt]

face palm

[sharp yew]

lmao

[drifting jolt]

if youre this new, then I would avoid PVP like hte plague

til you at least have a handle on extracts

[sharp yew]

i was looking in settings and it said check time and extracts and i just started laughing

[pseudo relic]

naw bro u gottta learn with trial and error fr

[lethal heath]

Not committing to a fight/spray too hard is one

[drifting jolt]

no, no no

[lethal heath]

If you peak and angle and start shooting someone you don’t need to keep spraying till your mags empty

Try to pick out where they are maybe shoot half your mag and if they are in cover or start shooting you then you can get back in cover

[pseudo relic]

why tho

[drifting jolt]

this game is about surviving, not about PvP

PvP is part of surviving

but surviving is the #1 goal

so whys he going to try to get into PvP on purpose, when he doesnt even know where to take the loot to get out?

[tropic ledge]

@drifting jolt yea being doing mainly scav runs and off line of woods and customs to get familiar with the maps

[drifting jolt]

this is the way

[pseudo relic]

and what do you know
bro can just open a map on google ⁉️

[lethal heath]

Yeh I mean trial and error helps but your main focus early levels is to get loot and get out

[sharp yew]

OK TY

[drifting jolt]

not everyone is as quick on the uptake as you genius

[lethal heath]

Even on maps I have played a few times it’s hard to figure out where you are

[sharp yew]

Im not doing it on purpose, but when im running into an extract and run into someone I always die liek 100% of the time

[lethal heath]

Unless you can find a monument of some kind

[lethal heath]

Just take your time

[drifting jolt]

you can just run away for a while, then wait a few minutes and come back to that extract

@sharp yew youre going to die A LOT

[sharp yew]

ok ty guys

[drifting jolt]

dont worry

[lethal heath]

Unless you know where people usually hide/sit running will get you killed a lot so I would recommend taking it slow

[drifting jolt]

^

[sharp yew]

ye ik

[lethal heath]

Unless you’re out in the open then gun it

[wooden sandal]

Chemical part 4 or out of curiosity?

[lethal heath]

Helps a lot if you can hear someone before they hear you

[sharp yew]

also what guns should i prioritize grabbing in raid, and taking into raids as a beginner

[lethal heath]

That’s kinda up to you tbh

[drifting jolt]

well at lvl1 traders, you dont have a ton of options...

[lethal heath]

I quite like shotguns cos you can have a lot of rounds and they are easier to manage with less attachments

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew your chances of malfunction increase quite a bit under 91 durability, so avoid using scav guns when at all possible

[lethal heath]

But again personal preference maybe you like snipers and what not

[drifting jolt]

shotguns are best guns

i had more shotgun kills last wipe than any other gun type

@sharp yew try to unlock jaeger asap

he sells a bunch of shottys

[sharp yew]

ok ty, I grabbed a mp-153 and it only has 56 durability but its been working kinda good

[drifting jolt]

great gun, but be weary about low duras

[sharp yew]

should I repair it?

[lethal heath]

After doing the peacekeeper quest for 12ga kills I used a suppressed mp-153 for like 30 raids

Shit absolutely wrecks

[sharp yew]

its 5k to repair it

[drifting jolt]

you can, but scav guns have, usually, below 91 durability to start with

[sharp yew]

its max dura is 91

[drifting jolt]

youll probably get low 80s if you repair it

so it'll help

but wont guarantee to be malfunction free

[lethal heath]

Yeh a gun jamming on you will put you in a really bad spot a lot of the time

Also nawkt I will say one thing to always try your best for is to take your time killing scavs

If they haven’t seen you yet just line up the headshot and drop them no need to unload mags and shit cos you’re stressed

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew do yourself a favor... change the 'inspect' key to something easy to hit, and to activate on 'press', then change the 'check chamber/fix malfunction' button to the same key, but to activate on 'release'

[lethal heath]

I still do that a bit tbh

[sharp yew]

ok ima do a couple more practices just to practice with scavs, the ones with shotguns always fuck me up ngl

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew so whenever you get a malfunction, you hold that key, til you get the malfunction notification, and immediately release the key to begin fixing the malfunction

[sharp yew]

ok I will do that now ty

[lethal heath]

Yeh they are annoying

[shell python]

Why doesn’t this work for gunsmith pt 1? I feel like I triple checked everything. Am i dumb?

[drifting jolt]

we're all dumb here... so no loaded questions...

[lethal heath]

These are the parts you’ll need on the gun

[sharp yew]

i cant find inspect in controls settings

[drifting jolt]

@shell python youre missing several parts

[drifting jolt]

bottom

wrong grip too

foregrip

[shell python]

Oh it has to be specific parts? I thought it was just the requirements he was talking abt

My b thx y’all

[sharp yew]

i dont see it at the bottom

i might just be blind

[lethal heath]

Needs to only take up 4 slots aswell

So the gun is too big

[drifting jolt]

it doesnt have to be certain parts every time, but it's easiest to just follow the wiki/YT

[lethal heath]

Yeh you’ll need all those parts to actually get the requirements

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew oh shit, one sec, i was thinking of discard

[shell python]

Ok thx

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew about 75% of the way down, 'inspect current weapon'

[sharp yew]

Found it thanks, ima set it to a mouse button

[drifting jolt]

if you have a few extras, sure, but there are other keys worth using on your mouse instead

turning lasers/lights on/off with a mosue key is a must

i suggest holding breath with your mouse thumb

[sharp yew]

ye i have that one on there

[lethal heath]

Yeh I’ve got change scope zoom and Change scope on my two mouse buttons

[drifting jolt]

pro move... change hotkeys 6-0 to ctrl+ 1-5, or alt+, or shift+

[lethal heath]

Only reason I don’t have hold breath is I feel like holding my mouse button down will fuck up my aim

[drifting jolt]

so you dont have to reach over to hit those hotkeys

[lethal heath]

Yeh I only ever use 4 lol

Can’t reach the rest

[drifting jolt]

youre gripping your mouse more firmly, why would that fuck it up?

[lethal heath]

Cos I’m gripping it in a weird spot

The buttons aren’t where I hold it normally

[drifting jolt]

you one of the claw grip guys?

[lethal heath]

Nah not really it’s just like

Above where my thumb rests usually

[sharp yew]

ok im running a practice with a mp 153

[lethal heath]

Good luck sir

[sharp yew]

if i get killed by a shotgun scav this game is deleted

[lethal heath]

Shooting people who have a lot of armour in the legs is a great way to ruin their day btw

[drifting jolt]

pro tip - dont stand and trade gunshots with a shotty scav... get behind cover and break line of sight

then wait a few seconds and try again

[lethal heath]

Yeh scavs are broken now so don’t peak the same angle more than once

They will just spinbot tf out you

[sharp yew]

I just got sniped by a slug scav im gonna end it

i got 1.3k exp i only killed 3 of them

btw what maps should i be going on at first

ive just been doing factory, grabbing anything i can and then extracting

i only did that like twice

[lethal heath]

Customs

[sharp yew]

but it kinda worked

[lethal heath]

Customs is a really good starter map

Factory is actually ass

[drifting jolt]

Customs and Woods

[sharp yew]

ok should i use the shotgun on customs

[lethal heath]

There is little to no loot and just pmcs everywhere

[sharp yew]

or bring the m4a1 standard

[lethal heath]

Shotgun on customs is fine as long as you pick your fights

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew Factory is solely for PvP practice, and the occasional quest... You dont go to Factory to make money

[lethal heath]

Try to avoid open areas or people fighting

And just try to work on 1 or 2 quests at a time

[sharp yew]

ok, i think im gonna go on customs as a scav to learn a couple of extracts and try and get some loot, then ill do it on my pmc

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew Shotguns have WAYYY better range compared to any other FPS... https://streamable.com/xebc61

[lethal heath]

Yeh just open up a map on Google

[sharp yew]

my scav looks to have a automatic rifle

[lethal heath]

And just try and get your bearings

[sharp yew]

single fire better tho

[lethal heath]

Cos your scav and pmc extracts won’t be the same

[sharp yew]

ye i use map genie

[lethal heath]

They are realistic lol

[drifting jolt]

most times.... you dont wanna use your scav gun full auto, unless it's a small SMG or something... the recoil is a bit much on an unmodded auto

[drifting jolt]

oh for sure, i love shotguns

[lethal heath]

Same

[drifting jolt]

but most FPSs dont do shotguns right

[sharp yew]

ye i only like single fire rn, recoil in this game is crazyyyy

[drifting jolt]

until you start modding them, yes

[lethal heath]

Yeh shotguns in tarkov feel so powerful

They are so powerful even lol

[drifting jolt]

This was my raid yesterday with a shotgun on Interchange... not too shabby lol

[sharp yew]

alright going into customs with scav, wish me luck

[drifting jolt]

gl, godspeed

[sharp yew]

what is allat stuff on the right

is it just boxes full of loot

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew cases

food, ammo, grenade, mag, junk, meds

[sharp yew]

whats in them

dammmm

rich rich

[drifting jolt]

meh not really

im kinda behind this wipe

[lethal heath]

Saves space

[drifting jolt]

^

[sharp yew]

when did wipe happen

[lethal heath]

Late December

[sharp yew]

i bought this game a long time ago and played it for like 10 hours and i havent played since

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew the 27th? or 28th maybe, of december

[sharp yew]

actually prob like 5 hours

[sharp yew]

oh thats not to long ago

[lethal heath]

Yeh I bought tarkov in like 2017 but didn’t play it

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew i just got blasted away on Shoreline by a shotgun scav 😦

2 minutes ago 😦

[sharp yew]

I got back on it cause I convinced my friend to buy it and they just played one raid then stopped playing it

[lethal heath]

Started playing like a few wipes ago for a little bit now I’m playing it properly

Have 350 something hours I think

[sharp yew]

unfortunate (shotgun scavs are sentient)

[exotic mirage]

is this the craziest operational task

[drifting jolt]

if you get hooked you really get hooked, but some people cant hack it enough to get to level 15

[exotic mirage]

a tank battery and a air drop flare for easy task

[lethal heath]

Fence needs to hop off your dick

[exotic mirage]

on god

[sharp yew]

I think i got like level 8 my first time playing then stopped, i just wanna get better this time and actually get into the game

[lethal heath]

I’m tryna get kappa this wipe so I’m going all in

[sharp yew]

yo is this gun good

[lethal heath]

It’s unlikely but I’ll try my best

[exotic mirage]

this is my 2nd wipe, I got a 40% survival and 2.5KD so far

[sharp yew]

on my scav

idk what it is

[exotic mirage]

my goal is just to get hideout upgrades then big money

[lethal heath]

Ak of some kind

[sharp yew]

niceeee

[exotic mirage]

with the big ass banana mag

45rd

[lethal heath]

Yeh tbh if I had money I would just enjoy the game so much more

[exotic mirage]

wouldnt we all

[sharp yew]

its an akms

[lethal heath]

I don’t get upset at dying I get upset at the fact that I can’t afford kits lmao

[exotic mirage]

i am trying to get to the point where i have 3 kits maintained at all time but it never happens

i collected 4 mp5sds and armor and thats all gone now

[lethal heath]

I mean I have tonnes of guns

Just no like armours or mags or anything

[brittle canyon]

buy armor and mags

[lethal heath]

But I have no money

[exotic mirage]

Buy money

[lethal heath]

It never goes up just down

I wish

[exotic mirage]

10 dollar 1 million rouble

🙀

[sharp yew]

is this good to take to customs

[brittle canyon]

need heavy bleed meds

vaseline in ass

use 5mm buck from jaeg

[sharp yew]

i dont have him unlocked

[brittle canyon]

then 7 is fine

[stiff citrus]

go get him unlocked before doing anything else

[brittle canyon]

craft 8.5mm soon

[sharp yew]

how do i get his task

[stiff citrus]

accept Mechanics first task, then you get the second as well

its Introduction

[brittle canyon]

examine everything on traders and get to lv2

[sharp yew]

ok thanks

uh he doesnt have a task

[stiff citrus]

^

[sharp yew]

oh mb

[stiff citrus]

you may have to inspect some weapons and examine their unique parts as well as USEC

[drifting jolt]

examine everything form all the traders, and youll get level 2

then do one raid live/die

[brittle canyon]

always examine everything regardless

[drifting jolt]

and you get the 'introduction' quest from mechanic to find the note to unlock jaeger

[brittle canyon]

nah just queue a raid and back out

[drifting jolt]

i didnt know that worked... cool

[lethal heath]

Yeh good to get the quest early lol

[bold kernel]

are there any ledx spawns in lighthouse

[lethal heath]

Doesn’t look like it no

[broken bear]

Building a new pc. 3070, 12900k, 32gb 3600mhz ram, Asus prime z690 mobo. I accidentally bought a 360mm radiator and I have a mid tower case. It was a h150i elite. It came with 3 fans and the radiator. Will I be fine with just 3 fans until I can upgrade the case to fit the radiator?

[elfin elm]

no

your cpu cooling essentially doesn't exist without the aio

[sharp yew]

ok the message is by the plane crash on woods right, in the mini treehouse thing

?

[elfin elm]

yep, underneath the stand among the wood planks

[sharp yew]

ok thank you

hopefully i can do this first try

[elfin elm]

make sure you have the task accepted first, and you're doing a pmc run

[sharp yew]

ye i do have it accepted

should I bring an mp5 or m4a1

[elfin elm]

mp5

[sharp yew]

ok

[elfin elm]

m4a1 has pretty trash default recoil

mp5 is still kinda high, but controllable enough for default

your rounds suck though

[exotic mirage]

i would just go with a bolty

mosin did the trick for me for woods tasks

[brittle canyon]

sell all the m4 and the m4 mags but unload all the mags and save the 855

[sharp yew]

but then ill have basically no guns

[brittle canyon]

and buy a mosin

[sharp yew]

should i buy new ones?

[brittle canyon]

buy guns

[sharp yew]

ok

i will do it after my raid

[brittle canyon]

mp5 too short range for woods but you shouldn’t be fighting anyone anyway

[elfin elm]

m4 requires modding to make decent, which you don't have access to a lot of the bare minimum parts off the bat

[sharp yew]

lets hope i wont

im rlly hoping i spawn close to the note

ion wanna have to run across the map

[hazy oriole]

yo how do i switch interactions when i look at a door or something

[drifting jolt]

scroll wheel

[hazy oriole]

thank you for some reason in the ai thing it wasnt working

[elfin elm]

scroll

[hazy oriole]

yall got any tips for me?

[brittle canyon]

if you spawn opposite side that means your exfil is near the note

in most maps your exfil is the opposite of where you spawned

[fathom ocean]

clip your deaths try to take everything as a learning experience

[sharp yew]

i just died from one landmine

im legit gonna kms

it scared the shit out of me

[drifting jolt]

and gave everyone in the lobby a good laugh

it always does

[sharp yew]

I also accidentally skipped the free healing so im just gonna do a scav run and get off

ima do it on customs

i think my scav has an autoshotgun

we boutta find out

[safe panther]

never pay for healin if you have the med supplies

heal in stash more xp

[half pine]

what can i take off of the sv-98 and still be able to stash it?

[safe panther]

everything

right click dissassemble

[half pine]

so this?

[orchid isle]

how much should i sell this for? none are selling on flea rn

[safe panther]

thats just the barrel but yes

take all the piecess it broke apart for the re assembly

nice gl

grenade launcher not good luck fkn shorthand these days lol

nobody wants to type full words no mo

[orchid isle]

ohh it cant be sold on flea

[drifting jolt]

was just about to say this

theyre also quite rare

have found only 1 this wipe thus far

[orchid isle]

i just got it from punisher 1 quest

i think

[sharp yew]

what of this should I keep and what should i sell (the scav stuff not my inven)

[orchid isle]

need salewea for quest

[drifting jolt]

sell those worthless 1x1 20 round mp5 mags

[dim sparrow]

For the peacekeeper quest "scrap metal" where on shoreline is the second tanker

[drifting jolt]

you can buy 30 rounders from peacekeeper for $41

[sharp yew]

OK

[drifting jolt]

the wiki works wonders

[sharp yew]

ok*

[drifting jolt]

even i still use it

[dim sparrow]

nah I used it and it didnt let me mark it

and I remember going to that one and marking it

[sharp yew]

who should i sell them to

[orchid isle]

did you have the markers on you

the ms2000

[lethal heath]

If items have a golden tick at the bottom right it means you need them for a current quest

[sharp yew]

i turned it in

[lethal heath]

Nice

[sharp yew]

should i sell my m4a1 and there magazines

i think someone told me to

[safe panther]

naw just wait til you pick up mods for it

build it out

[sharp yew]

i just started so thats gonna be a while

[safe panther]

no it wont hit interchange garages

youll have it in like 5 runs and extracts

[sharp yew]

im bad tho

[safe panther]

rat around

[sharp yew]

so its gonna be like 55 runs and extracts

[safe panther]

dont run

you ever hit interchange

[drifting jolt]

you need to level all the traders

so look at top right of any trader (except fence)

[sharp yew]

top left?

[drifting jolt]

3 #s... player level, reputation, COMBINED buy/sell total

reputation you raise by doing their quests (tasks in game)

[sharp yew]

oim so confused

oh u mean in the trader

[drifting jolt]

yes...

[sharp yew]

not on the trader menu im dumb

[drifting jolt]

lol yeah

[sharp yew]

ok thanks

also should I buy any good cheap guns?

[drifting jolt]

not until you need to use one

[sharp yew]

ok

[drifting jolt]

on the shit traders are selling

right side of that

2nd icon.. the 2 circling arrows

click that

this shows you all the barters that trader has

some barters are better than others, but as you level there becomes a ton of great barters

for cases and ammos and all sorts of things

often times the barter items are cheaper on the flea market than just buying the item youre trying to barter for

[sharp yew]

ok ty, also are grizzly slugs better or are "poleva-6u"

im using it for the toz

nvm

[drifting jolt]

https://eft-ammo.com

2 main things to pay attention to on that chart... is damage and what levels of armor it penetrates and how well

some cartridges may do no penetrate, but could have really high damage

these are used for 'leg meta'

just killing them buy blowing their legs off

since legs have no armor

[sharp yew]

ok thank you

[drifting jolt]

@sharp yew when a limb is blacked out, but continues receiving damage, it multiplies and spreads that damage over the rest of the body, that's how that works

[sharp yew]

ok

ima use this stuff next time im on my pmc cause im boutta gts

[drifting jolt]

cheers mate

[sharp yew]

is this good for customs

the toz

with lsugs

im assuming it is

[drifting jolt]

toz is kinda for the memes

it kills

but your luck wont be much with it

[sharp yew]

i like the iron sights on it a lot

[drifting jolt]

at least against any PMCs

[sharp yew]

ok

also whoever said that i wouldnt run into a lot of ppl on customs was a damn liar

it was a warzone

[safe panther]

aim for torso youll get more hits

[sharp yew]

i still made it out tho

[sharp yew]

ok thanks

ima gts now goodnight guys

[dapper epoch]

I just loaded into a scav and got a notification in the bottom right "airspace is crowded" or full or something?

[brisk wharf]

seems like someone popped up a red flare

[dapper epoch]

I dont hear a plane

[brisk wharf]

yes because the airspace is crowded so it is delayed

[dapper epoch]

Im stealing that shit

[brisk wharf]

👀

[dapper epoch]

I just found a lab card in a drawer

[exotic mirage]

i have 3 m203 grenade launchers and 0 clue what to do with them

do they count towards grenadier

[frosty crown]

What do u guys do to make money ?

[brittle canyon]

no

[brittle canyon]

survive

[exotic mirage]

nuts

im not gonna buy a DVL or m4 for these

[hybrid quail]

shoreline safe runs generally, atleast early wipe

[exotic mirage]

so they will rot in my stash

[brittle canyon]

it fits on a dvl?

[exotic mirage]

im pretty sure yeah

[brittle canyon]

why?

[exotic mirage]

its the same kind of part as the adar and m4

i think let me look

[brittle canyon]

u mean tx15 or

[exotic mirage]

yeah it fits on to the AR15 barrel which the DVL can use if I am reading this right

yes

[broken kite]

a cheaper way could be dorms safes aswell

[exotic mirage]

sorry is there another kind

[brittle canyon]

dvl is the green one

[exotic mirage]

oh ok sorry the TX15 has DVL in the name so thats what I called it

[brittle canyon]

dmr

designated marksman rifle

[exotic mirage]

it says DML

I guess designated marksman light

[hybrid quail]

yeah, dorms are locked behind keys though, if you hit the secret gas station safe, unlocked cottage, and pier alone that's 5 safes, including all the different loots spawns on that run

[exotic mirage]

I just run the 12 barrel caches on customs

Shit is so free

Dorms if spawn and timing is right

[halcyon crystal]

when do raiders appear in underground bunker on reserve? I get there early and they never seem to be there but when I get there late theyre swarming the bunker

[broken kite]

good point, customs is easier to learn (imo) and the keys arent that expensive

[broken kite]

power on, bunker hermatic and armored train

[hybrid quail]

dorms is good, im just talking early level, all easy access safes

[brittle canyon]

they sometimes spawn in the beginning, sometimes when you pull lever, sometimes late in raid

[broken kite]

yeah

[halcyon crystal]

will raiders always spawn tho

[broken kite]

no

[brittle canyon]

sometimes

[hybrid quail]

before 15 you can't buy them however

[broken kite]

ohhh forgot abouyt that lmao]

[hybrid quail]

[exotic mirage]

how do I convert euro to rouble in terms of flea market

all the defibrillators are in euro and I want roubles

[brittle canyon]

save euro for quest

[exotic mirage]

what quest

[brittle canyon]

some quest

[exotic mirage]

I have 5k euro is that enough

but 200k rouble

[brittle canyon]

no

alsp filter flea to only display rouble

this removes euro and barter offers at the same time

[exotic mirage]

oh is that a thing

[brittle canyon]

yes good setting is

[exotic mirage]

cool thanks

[brittle canyon]

minimum quantity 1
minimum dura 90
rbl only
remember filter

[dapper epoch]

Is the portable bunkhouse key not on flea

[brittle canyon]

it is

uncheck exclude barter and camp the offer and someone will list it for 8k sooner or later

[exotic mirage]

shit I will list it if I still have a FIR one

[subtle thunder]

I want to rock a pistol to kill some pmcs what pistol and ammo u guys reccomend

U remember me xy I’m the guy who reset my account cuz I was down bad

No regrets from that choice in 2 days on that account I have filled my stash to the brim with shit

And I’m almost back to the same level in 10x less raids then before I reset

[vestal mango]

Uhhhhh what level are u

cause im a firm believer in the 1911 with FMJ or almost any 9x19 pistol with pst gzh

[sage citrus]

what ammo i should buy for kendr?

[vestal mango]

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

[dreamy imp]

eh kedr is a pretty trash weapon, just run whatever is cheap and aim for either head or legs

[vestal mango]

Pick highest 'dmg' and yeah aim for da toes

9x18 is pretty much shit, but good for the starters since its cheap and does decent dmg with the kedr due to its high fire rate and low recoil

[topaz shell]

hi guys, I'm trying to complete gunsmith 5, but I can't get the stock required to get the recoil down. any suggestions?

[vestal mango]

That stock is kinda ur only ticket

since mr mechnak is kinda anal bout it

u gotta find it

[topaz shell]

😦 there is only 1 on the market

[vestal mango]

a streamlined way

is reserve

due to the butt load of gun parts in the K buildings

[topaz shell]

K buildings? nice one buddy ❤️

[vestal mango]

or if u got a buddy who could buy it for u then give it to you

[topaz shell]

i need to learn reserve xd

[dreamy imp]

cant do the barter?

[topaz shell]

its for an elite p226 :/

nvm one came up

i just paid 100k for a stock kill me pls

[vestal mango]

...

dear god

[dreamy imp]

lol thats cheap

[vestal mango]

it hit me

Smith u said the shotty right like the m870

why not just do mechanics LL1 barter for like 4 batteries?

[topaz shell]

ive done it now anyway xd atleast i know for next wipe now

[vestal mango]

lol

[topaz shell]

ty for the help guys

[vestal mango]

heads up

Get the P226 elite

ASAP

CAUSE ITS NEVER IN FUCKING STOCK

and youll need it

for a Gunsmith quest

[brittle canyon]

just camp restock

[quasi vine]

is there any reason to keep these i have 3 of them now

(other than for flares)

i havent found any flare rounds yet

[brittle canyon]

just keep 1

[humble tide]

Look it up on wiki

I just left all my gunsmith until I got flea

Makes it easier

[halcyon crystal]

in reserve underground bunker if the power is on that allows u to exfil via d2, does the big central hallway have its light turned on or is it always on?

[zinc pike]

hello friends. brand new player here. i have extracted a total of 3 times, because fellow people had lead me there. otherwise, i am clueless. any tips...? best maps to start on? how to begin a raid...preparations? sorry :/

[primal yacht]

Factory is quick to learn,lots of early game tasks on customs and woods is good for money

Get a map for customs and maybe go once or twice in offline to get a feel for the map then try to extract

[zinc pike]

okay, i'll do so. thank you!

[primal yacht]

#sherpa-info is good too

[jaunty prism]

is blindfiring good in tarkov?

[brittle canyon]

it has its uses

but not effective

more of suppressive fire or baiting shots with flashlight sort of thing

[fervent sapphire]

If I know someone is turning a corner on me I just lean and hip fire

[noble kelp]

Could someone sell me a dovetail adapator for the 10t

[jaunty prism]

use it in your next run unless you have a better weapon

[kind willow]

how do I fix invisible people on streets

cant see my teammate sometimes and im dying to invisible ppl

[red anvil]

WHY THE FUCK THERE IS NO SCAVS IN SHORELINE?

AND I HAVE TO KILL THAT MANY?

[fervent sapphire]

Just a shitty bug in the game rn I’ve dealt with it as well

[brittle canyon]

you just need to run loops around radio tower, gas, power, garage, cottage

and waste 30 years finding 1 scav per poi

betas sj6 to resort, real chads sj6 to scav spawns

[dusky rover]

so upgrading heavy and light armor is just impossible right? the skill. Cause it really does seem like it

[molten minnow]

Never used the G36 and im sitting on three of them is there a decent build for it?

[dreamy imp]

most guns can be built to work well, some just depend on playstyle

[brittle canyon]

buy a bunch of broken armor and repair it

repair kit should be the cheapest

[dusky rover]

Im an idiot i didnt think it leveled it like that

[brittle canyon]

it’s just the matter of burning roubles and time

heavy armor level buff is better (reduce blunt damage vs light armor reduce melee damage) but vast majority of stuff in the game is light armor

[acoustic kelp]

i got a question

im trying to put this sr25 together but jt wont let me install the last few bits

[bright rune]

Got Ragman II, is there a good armor that i should buy from him or just go for press barter?

[acoustic kelp]

and when i press install to do it automatically it says no compatible slot, i know all the parts i hve are compatible

[pearl crown]

anyone wanna die together romantically

[bold kernel]

what buffer tube is it

[pearl crown]

in game of course

[acoustic kelp]

coot carbine

[bold kernel]

mmm

[acoustic kelp]

i checked bought all the parts thru a preset.

[bold kernel]

Is it just the upper or is it the whole gun

[orchid viper]

assemble it through the preset just @acoustic kelp

if it works it works

[acoustic kelp]

wont let me

[orchid viper]

what does it say when u press assemble on the preset?

[bold kernel]

You may have just the upper receiver

[acoustic kelp]

oh

maybe lol

what do i type in to buy the rest then?

[orchid viper]

just always mount ur weapons through the "edit preset"

easiest way tbh

[bold kernel]

I’m pretty sure you can’t get the sr25 until PK3

[acoustic kelp]

i typically do. im not sure why its giving me trouble now

[acoustic kelp]

i have pk3

[bold kernel]

uh

[acoustic kelp]

ive been building it this way all day, im not sure what happened

[bold kernel]

you are probably missing the gun gun

[orchid viper]

so whats the error msg u get when u press assemble on the presets? @acoustic kelp

[bold kernel]

That’s just he upper receiver

[acoustic kelp]

“no suitable weapon”

[orchid viper]

yea

[acoustic kelp]

oof okay

[bold kernel]

You don’t have the base weapon

[orchid viper]

listen to @bold kernel

easy

😄

[bold kernel]

def listen to the guy who is starting a bunch of hell in eft chat #1

:3

[acoustic kelp]

thats exactly what it was lol. thanks im so slow

[bold kernel]

Don’t think you are the only one, I did that shit with some guns before

[elfin elm]

for future reference, all buffer tubes attach via a point on the lower section, lower receiver, of the gun

same part that pistol grips attach to

not same slot usually, but the pistol grip and buffer tube both attach to the lower receiver

easy way to know if you have the right part is the lower receiver in real life is the part of the gun that is serialized on manufacturing, which is translated ingame to being the "gun" part of the firearm

you double click and look at the stats of an m4, you're actually looking at the stats of a lower receiver, it's just being modified by a lot of parts

[minor laurel]

im looking forward to go open some doors on dorms and I only can take 4 keys with me. Should I use these? And if not which dorms keys are worth buying in terms of loot inside?

You can't put backpacks inside pillbox

I dunno i never could

[brittle canyon]

you never could

it got nerfed a wipe after pillbox was added

or something

what map what level what traders

[minor laurel]

sks plus paca

and ssh helmet

[brittle canyon]

no helmet > ssh

[minor laurel]

ssh > any helmet

[hardy fox]

What level are you

[brittle canyon]

delusional

[grand maple]

how do car extracts work, i just died after paying fee and i wass on the car when timer hit zero and in death screen it says i killed myself

[brittle canyon]

pay, wait 60 secs

when the timer is up you should be next to car or it leaves without you

so hide somewhere for 50 seconds and run to the car

[grand maple]

i did then i went to the car i was litteraly on in and i just died

[brittle canyon]

yea someone shot you

lmao

[grand maple]

it said i killed myself

in death screen

only my name

i was loaded

[brittle canyon]

you went out of bounds and died to OOB snipers

[grand maple]

what?

how i was on the car

woods

[brittle canyon]

you went outside the allowed map area

yes there’s a giant red sign with a sniper icon

in front of the car

[grand maple]

...

[brittle canyon]

saying don’t go in front of the car

you always want to work with your trader levels because stuff is almost always cheaper at traders

plus you can usually only buy good ammo from traders

so you can’t just run any kit just cuz you have flea

yeah then you work with what pk2 offers

most notably

he has g36c and m855

855 is kinda bad but it’s what you have

until prapor 2

all 9mm is trash

all 9mm guns should be built as cheaply as reasonable

and go for headshots with 9mm

it’s got no pen and no damage

spray at the head with cheap gun

wrong

855 30 pen
856A1 is the better stuff

which is unlocked after completion of cult part 1 peacekeeper quest

9x39 is subsonic

it is reeeeeeallly slow

you run it like an oversized smg

twotap everything with SNB

you’ll have to run it for punisher part 6

a bullet

banned from flea

craft is 1 red gunpowder and an evening

do you need it?

[warm nebula]

anyone need gk-02?

[kindred trail]

lf somone to help me get better gear and level up and get quests ect dm me

[elder echo]

A friend told me to do this keybind (1st pic) but I can not do that. It only shows me the other way around (2nd pic). What do I need to do?

[obsidian fern]

is this a mistake on the site or is there something special I don't understand? this is the only place where a weapon with lower pen value is rated higher than another

[brittle canyon]

it’s the same thing

[elder echo]

No it's not.

I can't change scope magnification WHILE BEING INSCOPE

BUT he can

[brittle canyon]

all of these “ratings” are useless simplifications that never actually apply in real fights

consider that different armor degrade differently due to durability and material

and that it’s actually quite uncommon that you encounter 100% fresh armor on opponents

and that stray arm/leg/stomach shots and blunt damage all subtly affect TTK

and that percentage chances can always go the wrong (or right) way

if the numeric ratings have given you a good first impression of how the ammo performs than that’s fine but it should never be trusted or relied upon to choose what ammo you want to bring into raid

[obsidian fern]

hmm okay, everyone says ammo choice is so important though but fair enough, maybe a difference of 30 and 35 isn't gonna make a difference

thanks for the info though

[brittle canyon]

it is important wdym

the 1-6 ratings on those ammo charts are useless

the only thing you should trust is the raw penetration and flesh damage values

[obsidian fern]

ooooh that is what you meant, ok I understand then

[brittle canyon]

use battle buddy app and play around with the penetration calculator

[bold kernel]

its more dmg

[obsidian fern]

yes I can see that but that is not how they have ranked the ammo types in the other columns on the website

in all other tables they are ranked strictly according to pen value

that would either not work or introduce a 0.3s input delay every time you try to ads

bruh hell nah

it effectively makes all your guns 0 ergo in terms of aim speed

no his problem is that the game needs to recognize that he’s holding rmb and need to toggle when alt is hit instead of having to hold alt first and then press rmb

Basic thigns to try If you have issues to receive mail verifications, try :

1. Check the "Spam" folder - a letter by mistake could get there;
2. Wait at least 5 minutes - the letter does not arrive instantly;
3. Add to the whitelist of your sender's mail [e-mail];
4. Check if the mailbox is full, letters may not come if the quota of your mailbox is full.
5. Check your mail settings, turn off all filters on your mail, and also check your mail forwarding settings. When forwarding is turned on, letters can go to another mailbox. (We want to warn you, if you use mail forwarding, there may be many reasons for not delivering a letter, in which case you will need to contact the support of your mail service).
6. Contact the support of your mail service with a request, why you do not receive letters from the project Escape From Tarkov from the addresses:
