@ebon kindle @sage mesa thanks for the help. Well that doesnt help me a decision regarding which ammo should i keep? Do you guys keep both and use both on different ocasions?

If I’m at 6.7 rep for fence and I kill a Scav or a boss will my rep go down only by 0.1 and 0.2 or go down to below 6

left night
#

think I saw something yesterday about 1.2? probably wrong tho

#

so its worth getting 6, killing a scav, then getting rep back up?

frail comet
#

Is it true scav rep influences scav cases

#

If yes then is it worth doing intel at 2.70 rep

Welcome to Tarkov, take your happy pills, gonna need them

Tarkov maxes out my memory so tabbing out can be sketchy

Only have 16gb

#

i have 16gb as well, if you play borderless windowed it helps

frosty musk
#

I'll try it

#

Also cdg your scav is meant for making money

#

And it's completely risk free

#

Just try to avoid killing other scavs, you can figure out how to identify them with a YouTube video

#

But if you play pmc you are welcome to kill all the scavs you want

I've died 9 times in the last 10 raids. I don't even see who is killing me most of the time. I love the astetic to this game, but it's so damn punishing. Thinking about quitting until next wipe, I feel so far behind everyone.

Don’t think so, I’d just try and level up traders do tasks till you get flea and maybe get a junk box

#

There was a gift from tarkov on the website that had an ammo box not sure if it is still there

frosty musk

You basically had to claim.it start of wipe or you didn't get it

Is it still available

bit of an odd question but does wipe reset keybinds and settings too?

It resets your progress

Nothing else

Got to love Woods, having a gunfight with a Scav I can't even see and then get head shot by a PMC behind me because I'm getting pinned down by Scav army

For some reason

high prawn

Also whens wipe, I started a bit late and I know they're normaly 6 months but I have no clue when the last one was

red currentBOT
high prawn
#

So in about 4 months?

frosty musk
#

Yes

bold kernel
#

A wipe is usually 6 months.

But if we get another Streets expansion and more tech we could easily look at 7 months.

If we just get QoL or new guns it’s probably less. Depends on How much time they need

high prawn
#

Alright thanks

vapid flume
#

Nice, so I'm going to have to get out geared for 3 or so more months trying to do annoying quests

frosty musk
#

I think some wipes have been like 4 months though

#

BSG wipes when they feel they really need to, or are ready with a very big update

bold kernel
#

One was less than 100 days iirc

frosty musk

Has a list of wipe times and lengths

bold kernel
frosty musk
#

The very first wipe was 60 days

craggy hull
#

Seriously tho avoid bolt actions and move.

frosty musk
#

I don't know how the current game would survive if there weren't wipes

amber pulsar
#

I know I can improve my movement but I was honestly so surprised I didn't kill him...

#

But yeah good tip

#

A MP155 with magnum buckshot does better at this range

frosty musk
vapid flume
#

Not against super low level ammo, beginner ammo does like nothing to even some low level armors, which also makes it super annoying to play the game when everyone else has ssa ap and bp and i have fmj 5.56

frosty musk
#

Because all the other casuals are on the non-wipe

Nothing to lower the density of sweats

I was having success with this kit before, had a 5k xp raid but I guess when the scavs dont have helmets I didn't expect it to be this bad!! I am lvl 18 with lvl 2 prapor and ragman, what kind of guns should I be going for - I'm not really a fan of the rushing smg playstyle unless I have to go dorms or something of the sort. I like playing sneaky and trying to catch people before they can get me?

vapid flume
bold kernel
#

Arena gonna be like cod while non wipe is the open world tarkov we know rn

frosty musk
#

And then you have all this extra stuff but not the developers to back it up so updates have like year long gaps

bold kernel
#

It’s 1 shot

craggy hull
#

Arena will be the new Factory thats all.

#

Just for free.

frosty musk
#

I thought arena was going to be a paid game

craggy hull
#

(Where will I farm ppl ???)

bold kernel
#

Or is that at prap 3

frosty musk
#

Or are you talking about eod owners

bold kernel
craggy hull
frosty musk
#

But arena I don't think is dlc

#

So idk

craggy hull
#

No, still included.

frosty musk
#

Probably will be considered it but it's stretching the definition of dlc

amber pulsar
# bold kernel Did you unlock 7.62 PS?

Yeah, and I have lots of BT rounds from my scav runs. I did build a nice AKM but lost it unfortunately- have a nice kitted ADAR with good ammo but I just don't like bringing the good stuff solo because I usually just die 9/10 fights

#

Just find it hard to use full auto kind of guns, usually end up dumping a full mag and hitting like 5 rounds ahaha

bold kernel
frosty musk
#

But I'm just concerned you are you to have very split playercount which means worse economies and longer queues, then you are going to have a dev team split into too many groups so every update takes so long, then you also have a large portion of the team moving to work on a second game

bold kernel
craggy hull
bold kernel
#

And probably will continue to

amber pulsar
#

I guess there is no cheap mode in this game - I can try bring a build lile this but if someone has lvl 4 gear then they're untouchable almost

amber pulsar
#

Yeah, I guess what I needed to hear is if I want to have a good chance I need to spend a little more

craggy hull
#

Play your Scavs

I do play my scavs I have around 2.7 million in my stash

18 but I don't have much time to play

upgrade your stash

I go streets at night

#

I did

#

Yesterday

frosty musk
#

I have 2m roubles but am also super scared to play

Just got the intelligence desk thing

Only way to defeat it.

Once you start to get some survives you’ll see the fun in it.

Can’t have a team to carry you all the time

My only quests are killing scavs

craggy hull

#

Go kill scavs then

#

Do whatever tasks you have

frail comet
#

im first wipe only solo player its reallly not hard im surviving most raids + killing squads

frosty musk
#

I need scavs on woods and scavs on customs

craggy hull
#

solo is easier

frosty musk
#

May just try running a mosin with a scope on woods

craggy hull
#

just listen to the game

frail comet
#

once u get used to playing solo its fr easier

frosty musk
#

Mosin with scope is a good scav killer right

bold kernel
frosty musk
#

And then when I kill scavs on customs I can use a ump

craggy hull

And my money usually ends up tanking

Shootout something

jaeger too

frosty musk

I think is the quest name

Alright, what I guess I'll do going forward is spend my money on my kit - move when fighting and play more 🙃

# amber pulsar Oh wow what is a sherpa new to the server too hahs

Basically.

Experienced players who joined a program made by BSG to do a few raids with people who need their assistance ingame.

They have a lot of Sherpas, who are good at a bit of everything.

Some know good loot runs, some know how to pvp, some will just teach you the basics of the game.

Depends 100% on whatever you tell them that you want help for

frosty musk
#

And absolutely scav

#

Scav is literally free money

karmic mirage

Thanks everyone

snow jewel
craggy hull

Just dont keep this meta m4 for half a wipe in the bottom of your stash

its meant to be lost

Is it worth insuring your equipment?

craggy hull
karmic mirage
#

Thanks

frosty musk
#

If you are playing factory absolutely not but otherwise yes

#

Nothing goes unlooted on factory

craggy hull
#

Nobody's stealing that 😉

bold kernel
#

Yes and no.

Depends on What gear, if you play in a group etc.

People are more likely to take your stuff if it’s high level, expensive etc.

If you play in groups they would usually throw it for you

ruby adder
#

Lower tiered equipment will generally come back to you, except for weapons in some cases

karmic mirage
#

That makes sense

frosty musk
#

Scavs on factory take loot like it's food and they are starving

craggy hull
frosty musk
#

It's crazy

karmic mirage
#

I'm taking everything haha

craggy hull
#

We underestimate the number of ppl who kill us then die.

frosty musk
#

But don't forget about scavs

ruby adder
#

If you die with insured gear, take it as a L

frosty musk
#

Who will pick a body clean if they have the space

ruby adder
#

If it comes back, you can get happy.. If it doesn't, you've already accepted the L

frosty musk
#

And probably survive

craggy hull
#

Yeah but man I play factory and bunker, you would think thors, ulachs and mp7s would disapear.

frosty musk
#

You get those back from insurance?

craggy hull
#

frosty musk
#

Crazy

craggy hull

a lot of 155 too

its a sure bet, sometimes they take the brake

frosty musk

If I scav on factory any body i loot is empty of everything, including the facemask, melee, and pockets

Im not a beginner, however I don't understand grenade priority.
I had a RGO in the left-most slot of pockets, and a VOG-25 in the right-most slot of pockets, yet it took the VOG as priority, and when i have 3 or more nades in pockets it always uses the 2nd from left nade no matter what kind of nade it is.
Are nades not supposed to go [1] [2] [3] [4] in priority when in pockets?

And also you lose out on recoilreduction + the thermal if you want to use it

craggy hull

I want the rail for my FF, and the ultima handguard for the reduction

im gonna put a thermal on a shotgun one day

@craggy hull how should I mod a vpo 209 to make it kinda like a sniper

#

Do I need a bastion?

#

Basically how do I mount a scope

#

And should I add a suppressor

sage mesa
#

add a dog leg or bastion rail

#

which scope do u intend to use

craggy hull
#

gimme a sec

frigid elbow
#

If you kill a traitor scav as a scav will are ai scavs ment to still shoot at you because that happened to me 2x

sage mesa
#

dont think so

rocky ocean
#

no they wont

sage mesa
#

might have been a guard

frosty musk
#

I tried putting a bastion on but it wouldn't work

sage mesa
#

ok you will need a mount for that which is 34mm i think

#

as well as a rail

frigid elbow
#

That’s weird because I only killed one scav and at the end it said plus points for killing a traitor scav but had other scavs shooting at me and I didn’t shoot at them

sage mesa
#

ah yeah sorry

frosty musk
#

It's not letting me out the bastion on

#

I'm taking the other cover off

craggy hull
frosty musk
#

i have a pistol

#

m9a3

craggy hull
#

dont do that

#

or take a bolt action at this rate

#

the goal of 209 is to be usable at short ranges

mint light
#

i uh personally would not recommended that caliber

craggy hull
#

cause it can deliver at a decent rate

craggy hull
#

all that works with PS too

frosty musk
#

im going for scavs

#

what stock

mint light
#

bad pen. high recoil. semi/bolt only and at ur lvl no 30 rnd mags

#

i just dont see the upside

craggy hull
#

Facts

craggy hull
frosty musk
#

i mean avg suggested the gun

#

dont think i have that stock

craggy hull
frosty musk
#

i didnt ask for a build

#

i asked if mosin and pilad was good for scav killing on woods

#

you then suggest vpo

#

and i asked if what i had worked

#

and you now suggest attachments i dont even have access to

craggy hull
#

I mean a VPO is better than a Mosin cause you can semi and you still do 98, if you dont have attachements dont use those, there is no other you could use, you asked.

frosty musk

i thought level 10 would imply level 1 traders

are there more hackers on customs? I just ran into them two games in a row

fierce turtle
#

I just killed a guy on customs with a pretty good kit, like a modded m4 and t6 armour, should I sell it to traders for like 400k total or wait until I get flea market seeing as I'm only about a level away?

fierce turtle
#

tbh I would but I'm kinda scared of losing it

#

I usually end up fighting people with similar kits who are just better at the game so I'd probably lose it on my first raid haha

frosty musk
#

just if i wanted to try to get over gear fear i would use it

fierce turtle
#

yeah ikwym I do need to get over gear fear tbh

frosty musk
#

if you dont use it then hold on to it for flea

#

at least the armor

fierce turtle
#

yeah

#

tbf I can probably afford it

I have like 6mil saved rn

How does insurance work in this game

I insured abunch of things got a message from mechanic saying they sending someone out to look then heard nada

bold kernel
bold kernel
#

Cost like 2.5

bold kernel
#

If he couldn’t find anything he’ll tell you (if somebody brings your stuff out you can’t get it back)

If it was still in the raid when the timer hit 0, you’ll get it in the mail

humble dagger
#

Awe okay ,cause I insured like 4 kits since I got the game today and ain't got anything back yet

bold kernel
#

It’ll take from 24 to 32 hours

#

Depending on the trader

hmm ok

and even that could be better with the Gen3/MURS receiver

brittle canyon
#

(skull emoji)

frigid finch
#

lol i like it...same recoil as the holo and the ability to zoom if needed

brittle canyon
#

terrible fov

#

and unlike every other optic which is definitely not bugged the hhs may or may not be bugged and/or may or may not be fixed

#

also in holo mode you have zero peripheral vision to the right

frigid finch
brittle canyon
#

fov while zoomed is bad

#

and the reticle

frigid finch
brittle canyon
#

you could pick up any other optic at the same price and it would also headshot scavs while also being usable in other situations

frigid finch
#

lol i like the holo for most combat

#

the versatility to be able to have a zoom on the holo is what i like

#

dont really think there is an alternative

brittle canyon
#

or tac30

frigid finch
#

those are scopes and i dont like the feel of them personally

regal oasis
#

tac30 overated

brittle canyon
#

then don’t recommend objectively bad optics based on your personal preference

lol are you stupid? i didnt recommend shit...i linked the m4 to show the recoil

fucking moron

brittle canyon

with a hhs

regal oasis
brittle canyon
#

fucking moron says the hhs user

#

so funny

frigid finch
#

yep, cause there is only ONE way to play the game

literally the only downside vs a normal holo optic is the loss of some right side vision while zoomed

brittle canyon
frigid finch
#

omfg no one cares

#

done with this convo

brittle canyon
#

“hhs is objectively bad” is a fact

#

don’t act personally because someone insulted (well, “insulted”) your fav scope
