Wanted to figure out so I can start grinding the money for more gpu but leave my hideout on

tepid mulch
#

what should i be crafting in hideout for profit

#

i usually make eagles or kites

#

pretty dumb not to

#

#

moonshine

#

i make moonshine to gamble

#

That's the worst way to use moonshine, unless u desperately need rare things like gps amplifier, but u afraid to go into locations where they spawn

zinc canopy
#

But it’s the most fun way to use moonshine

#

This game is about efficiency , not fun , right ?

zinc canopy
#

Depends on who you ask

lost basalt

i usually ask streamers on youtube and twitch

why would anyone use m80 if m61 is cheaper to craft?

Ohh sorry

If your smart enough you don’t really need to ask the discord to find it

Fragmentation?

#

Or smth

lost basalt
#

Bulletts with high penetration, can damage multiple parts of body , each damaged part counts as hit . E.g if shoot with m61 at shoulder from side, you can damage both hands and thorax

brittle canyon
#

fragmentations count as 2 hits

#

are the rogue hitboxes messed up when they are on the guns

does level 5 armour stop u from being 1 shotted by rogue LMGs

yeah i tested out the difference and the one with lower ergo is 10x better

neat flicker
#

i need some motivation to get me into a raid without being overwhelmed with anxiety

brittle canyon
#

develop a reliable income stream or just be rich enough

neat flicker
#

at the moment I've got no idea how

#

I know i'll enjoy it more once I can make money, but right now I just sort of run around like a headless chicken who is scared of everything

gaunt silo
#

don't have to worry about other pmcs in offline mode, you don't get loot but can at least figure our the map, extracts, loot route

neat flicker
#

It’s basically all I’ve been doing

#

Slowly working on mechanics and the like, but I’m still reluctant to jump into a proper match

brittle canyon
#

scav

gaunt silo
#

well whatever you do, you are gonna die a lot in the beginning

#

it's part of it. I don't think i made it out my first 20 raids

brittle canyon
#

learning stashes on scav can also teach you the map

#

while being “relatively” safe

#

(nothing is safe)

neat flicker
#

I suppose I just need to throw myself into it

#

I always learn from mistakes by watching back videos, but I just get so scared playing it

gaunt silo
#

just run around as scav, i didn't pay attention to other players once i figured out how scavs worked. IF pmcs left and they wanna kill me so be it, other scavs generally won't kill you if they do so be it. Running around and looting fast as possible on a route is the way to go imo. Ignore everyone else, treat it like a solo run with npcs.

#

once you understand how gun / ammo works then you can start paying attention to pmcs during your scav runs.

neat flicker
#

hm

#

i just need more experience to learn from

#

but this game is so strange in that it seems to punish attempting to learn something cause you lose all that stuff

gaunt silo
#

as a scav don't worry about dying. You have everything to gain and NOTHING to lose

neat flicker
#

would be nice if we had an infinite ammo option for solo matches so I can train shooting

gaunt silo
neat flicker
#

my hideout has practically nothing at the moment

#

just can't get the stuff for it as I don't play enough

snow jewel
gaunt silo
snow jewel
neat flicker
#

customs is the only one I play

#

but I know it fairly well

#

to the point where I don't get lost often :/

snow jewel
#

i suggest woods, put 20 or so hours into it so you know where you are at all times

#

you can also pull up a map with extracts/ youtube vid

gaunt silo
#

i still havn't memorized all pmc spawn points on woods

snow jewel
#

cring :p

gaunt silo
#

i know most just not all lol

snow jewel
#

i know all the left spawns, not really the right

gaunt silo
#

i'm not sure about the area where you have to do the marking at the cult part 2

snow jewel
#

abandoned village?

gaunt silo
#

in woods. that church area. I know there are pmc spawn points there just don't know where exactly

#

yea up north of woods

snow jewel
#

there's a spawn a little before that

neat flicker
#

I'd get lost on woods that's for sure

gaunt silo
#

i rarely go that area. i just know there are some spawn points there cuz i spawned near there once

snow jewel
#

dont think people actually spawn in the village

gaunt silo
#

nah, near there

snow jewel
#

its a small map and honestly takes no time to learn since you have 2 extracts

neat flicker
#

might do a scav now to break the ice

gaunt silo
#

one time i spawned inside of dorms as a scav and i didn't even know that was a scav spawn point lol

gaunt silo
snow jewel
#

avoid the top left side of the map if you can

gaunt silo
#

he prob gonna get mined before that lol

#

my first experience in woods.... mine

neat flicker
#

might get a friend to act as a backseat driver lol

#

although I think I might just stick to customs while I work on mechanics

snow jewel
gaunt silo
#

first experience on lighthouse .... mines

snow jewel
neat flicker
#

since if I know the map, that's one less thing to worry about, and I can focus on the more immediate mechanics like hipfire and dealing with sight sway

neat flicker
#

why not

#

seems logical to me

gaunt silo
#

you gonna be modding the weapons later anyways

neat flicker
#

that doesn't affect knowing where to move and where to be in fights, what decisions to make etc, that's what I'm worst at at the moment

gaunt silo
#

plus you don't have the ammo needed to fight pmcs. Right now you need to do tasks, learn maps while making money

neat flicker
#

that's boring though :(

snow jewel
neat flicker
#

alt

gaunt silo
#

if you wanna fight pmcs you need to do tasks to unluck ammo and money

gaunt silo
neat flicker
#

that's a skill?

gaunt silo
#

yea

#

you can hold breath longer and ADS longer

frosty musk
#

If you do want to focus those things which is fine

#

Go offline factory with high scavs

#

And as you improve at that you can increase their difficulty

#

I could use some practice with that

#

I was throwing yesterday on woods

#

Killed by scavs while using a fucking mosin

#

Which should one tap most scavs thorax

neat flicker
#

One thing that really overwhelms me at the moment is the sheer volume of angles I need to check. I take a step and there are like 15 different places someone can be, and it terrifies me

#

I just died but I know exactly why, but I feel like I have to peek angles super slowly to clear them and it doesn't feel very efficient

frosty musk
#

You can run through and quickly look to your left/right while running

#

To look down the hall

neat flicker
#

This is mostly when I’m just wondering about, like in the construction area in customs, I feel like somebody’s watching me at all times, or someone can be anywhere, so I’m just in constant stress

frosty musk
#

I'm probably more scared than you of that

#

My solo anxiety is crazy

median niche
neat flicker
#

It’s one reason why I want to work on my combat ability, so that if I get in a sticky situation I have the understanding to deal with the situation and not just fail miserably

median niche
frosty musk
#

Something I've been trying to do with my scav raids is to find and utilize consistent good loot routes that are super safe

#

So I just don't care about the outcome of my pmc

#

I'm learning without stressing

neat flicker
#

I don’t even know how to do that yet

frail comet
#

scav routes and pmc routes r different af

neat flicker
#

Also what time frame is considered day

frail comet
#

The traffic will be completely different

frail comet
#

As far as it being light out

neat flicker
#

Well I just did a scav raid and it’s the first time I’ve actually seen another pmc

frosty musk
#

I have one on lighthouse that is super safe and it hits 6 stashes, toolboxes, broken crates, an area with multiple stim and golden star spawns. Sherpa showed me it

neat flicker
#

Then I got sniped

frosty musk
#

If I'm feeling courageous and have the time I can also go hit water treatment after most of the rogues were probably killed and take the loot

#

Otherwise if I have loot I want to keep I can just extract right at the end of the route

median niche
#

while we are talking routes, anyone knows good woods spots other than emercom? I have a weekly there and don't want to contest emercom but I need money and I only find food

frosty musk
#

Emercom on woods?

cinder field
#

spots for what?

frail comet
#

That’s jnterchange

cinder field
#

Also what is emercom on woods for you?

median niche
#

medcamp

cinder field
#

Scav/medcamp, Usec camp

median niche
#

isnt that emercom medcamp? by the big lake

#

not usec

cinder field
#

The village

frail comet
#

Scav camp I thought

#

Scav camp/med camp

frosty musk
#

Scav camp/med camp/military camp

cinder field
#

Scavcamp or medcamp

frosty musk
#

All those names apply

cinder field
#

But the Usec camp is a spot for good loot

frail comet
#

What’s your weekly say

median niche
#

ah I was thinking military yea

frosty musk
#

The usec is by sunken village

cinder field
#

also what weekly do you have?

median niche

#

The only tasks I have are to get selewas

#

got a clip I might need some help analysing. First thing's first, I first turned towards him because I heard a gun click, but I didn't know he was there beforehand. I am incredibly tense playing this so my aim was all over the place but I didn't get him. Should I have just stood still instead of moved around?

frosty musk
#

Ammo is probably bad

#

optic isn't great

#

I don't think the head bobbing is helping you

frail comet
#

ur graphics are crazy

frosty musk
#

Moving around the tree was probably smart

#

He had the jump on you

#

Look at how much that optic is moving around

#

And unmodded m4 is always a disadvantage

neat flicker
frail comet
brittle canyon
#

either go full full auto or accurate taps, bursts are bad

#

and you’re playing behind the exact same tree peeking the same way and sitting in predictable angles it’s the best target practice ever

frosty musk
#

Cause auto compensation?

brittle canyon
#

I wouldn’t call it compensation necessarily

#

you’re just leaning into the recoil

frosty musk
#

Auto pull down

#

Whatever your pmc does that makes the gun go down after the first few shots

neat flicker
#

I definitely saw that I rushed it, I didn’t take the time to line up a shot

#

But yeah I wasn’t sure whether I should have stayed behind the tree or moved around

#

And I don’t know what I should use instead of the m4 then because it’s not like I have much choice

snow jewel
#

and id avoid fights, especially if they have full auto guns

frosty musk
#

I use mosin or ump

#

Need to try sks

#

SKS seems fun

#

I have like 500 rounds of PS

frail comet
#

The luckiest kills I’ve gotten have been w the SKS

#

it is fun for early wipe

they have hp and t46 more often

Some scav shoots me, i kill him and heal myself with my only heals. Then i try to go to extract then another scav shoots me in the back blacks my legs out.... i go to the river, dump everything i have in the river. Fuck those guys.

Yo, fellaz . I need serious help ! In a last few days i got some phobias , that i can't overcome by meself : 1 . Movement fear aka noises are kinda scary 2. Death phobia, like in real life being dead is scary , but some people say dying is ok ?? 3. Shooting phobia , pew-pew reveals your position aka yer dead, and death is unacceptable 4. Grenade phobia , cuz they aren't sleathy enouph , plus you can kill yerself . 5. Solo anxiety in general , 1 mistake and yer dead and again i can't die

this weekend i was struggling a lot, last night i got drunk and played much better

alcohol = w in tarkov

frail comet
#

def not

#

How do y’all play games drunk

gaunt silo
#

i simply do not care if i make noise or people are after me

i ended up killing more pmcs and make out with more loot

lost basalt
#

you should care !!

gaunt silo
#

it's simply not caring

lost basalt
gaunt silo
#

you make noise regardless, unless you spawn and laydown immediately and not move a inch for the entire raid

#

who wants to play like that?

lost basalt

Confidence has quite a lot of power in Tarkov. Not very reliable, but if you play scared then getting drunk can really help with that confidence

i tried magic red bull, it failed AegisCatLoadingThink . Like most things that i tried

why is Korund so terrible?

its not

but will cost more than its worth to repair from 0

gets destroyed really fast, never seen a korund with a lot of durability

hello, if a round has 100% fragmentation chance, does that mean it always deals double the damage? or does the damage also get split?

hoary falcon
#

Gzhel is always way better

snow jewel
#

gzhel is t6 on first shot iirc

hoary falcon
#

But Korund is nice if you're a bit of a rat and only have 1 engagement per raid, as it repairs really well

kindred grotto
#

gzhels dura is gone after the first shot

snow jewel
#

yea

#

its only good for a few runs

shut umbra
#

bruuuuuh........

#

is it really not worth shit?

kindred grotto
#

you can repair that for cheap w a kit

snow jewel
#

nope

kindred grotto
shut umbra
#

worth repairing it tho?

kindred grotto
#

kinda

shut umbra
#

how much would a kit cost? mechanic is 150k

snow jewel
#

thats why i said, both 0 dura haha

kindred grotto

its get to like 43 dura maybe

kindred grotto
snow jewel
shut umbra
#

i meant to repair with kit on top of 600k

kindred grotto
#

its doesent cost

#

it take away the dura of the kit

snow jewel
#

yea

kindred grotto
#

you can prolly repair like 12 korunds w 1 kit

snow jewel
#

controversial opinion: but i love da trooper

shut umbra
#

thats 50k per repair...

#

1/3 the price hmmmmm

kindred grotto
snow jewel

wasting repair kits on korund eft_PrapKEK

still better than paying money for it

tv110 is like 40k cheaper tho

"but no stomach waaa"

i get all my troopers from rogues

snow jewel
#

have 10 ready for cheap kits

#

plus repair is amazing

same w tv110

bit worse

honestly i just love 2x2

that's great yea

speaking of armour. I've got a 50/52 AVS i got from a player, but the max durability of an AVS is 70, so i'm wondering if it's good enough to run

#

or should i sell and buy smth else

snow jewel
#

whats the material?

kindred grotto
#

id use it but I wouldnt insure it

summer cedar
#

says Combined Materials

snow jewel
#

1 run and throw it out

summer cedar
#

I was gonna take it out to streets. It should be good for that right?

snow jewel
#

yee map doesnt really matter

#

repair just sucks on combined material

shut umbra
#

i lack the space honestly...

#

should i just toss the korunds?

whens the next wipe for tarkov

wait so armor kits take away durability = repair?

summer cedar
summer cedar
shut umbra
#

yea but its = ?

summer cedar
#

there's no consistant formula, iirc

shut umbra
#

40/45 -> 44/44 = 5 cost to armor kit?

summer cedar
#

depends on armour, lavatory level and skills

shut umbra
#

im asking cos i may buy one for the 2 korunds

summer cedar
#

and also the material of the armour

#

just buy one anyways, since you can get good use out of it regardless

glad wyvern

If I get a better secure container, do I keep it on wipe?

no lmao

Awesome, thanks 🙂

Ik gzhel is T5 but I heard it can’t tank that many bullets or whatever cuz it’s ceramic would a T4 trooper be better?

#

which one is overall better

snow jewel
#

depends on the durability

#

gzhel is t6 for the first shot, broken after that

#

so long term trooper is better, at least imo

frail comet
#

what would the best T5s be then

#

what would be the T5 version of trooper

#

I think the only other t5 I have is redut

#

I don’t have any thors or anything yet

#

I killed a PMC with a MPX, he was running Pst, is that good? should I run something different? Im level 16

#

Its only good if you can hit face shots but armour pen is really really bad

#

Its the regular 9mm bullet

azure harness
river rampart
weary meteor
#

Or do you mean 9x18mm?

river rampart
#

it must be correct

azure harness
weary meteor
#

Either way its not a good round and wont penetrate any armour class above 4 in a mag

#

So you gotta aim for face/arms/legs

weary meteor
#

For mpx?

azure harness
#

Yea

weary meteor
#

So you can check what are even worth using and what not

#

But for 9x18mm i would say PBM GZH or PSTM are the most worth using since they will actually penetrate armour

#

Its not as efficient as hitting the flesh spots but its better then nothing

azure harness
#

Im not sure I have access to it tho, I dont see it on the flea

weary meteor
#

PBM is craft only

#

Oh nvm

#

Im telling you 9x18

#

You need 9x19

#

9x19 pst is okei it will do the job

#

You can also mix in some RIP rounds but with those you need to hit flesh parts of the body

#

So your best options are PST GHZ or RIP for 9x19 but if you want better ones theres AP6,3 and PBP that cant be bought from flea but craft only

frigid finch
#

i mean, unless you are using at least AP 9x19, you should be aiming flesh, almost everyone has level 4 armor at this point

If you are holding it and don't get close to zryachiy or the guards then you should be fine

Had the transmitter out the whole time while crossing and looting
