[nocturne sequoia]

I know

[unkempt yew]

aha

no

sadly, but no

check the dude who made a vid ranting about the tasks of tarkov unhinged

[obtuse saffron]

imo hardest one is grenadier early wipe

[unkempt yew]

I aint even there yet lmao

struggling

[obtuse saffron]

whatchu on

im still on prapors task with the office

just never go facotry

[unkempt yew]

same

[obtuse saffron]

apart from stirrup

[unkempt yew]

am heading there lol

time to lose more shit

[obtuse saffron]

lol

[unkempt yew]

you're saying while I was matching in factory

no way back

time to dis

die

oof

[drifting jolt]

just join a 5 man squad to do Factory quests... mucho easy

[drifting jolt]

stirrup doesnt go anywhere, so you dont really need to do it

[unkempt yew]

I mean am in asian servers so that's cool

[obtuse saffron]

already did it

free roubes

[drifting jolt]

i mean, post in #pvp-lfg and see if anyone is running 5 mans in Asia?

[drifting jolt]

oh for sure... but whenever im forced to use a particular gun it takes me forever to get the kills, i hate it

[obtuse saffron]

#pvp-lfg helped me so much for some of the quests

nah i like it

sort of a challenge ig

got the kills easy anyway

[woven siren]

ONG

[thorn glen]

Can someone help me with Helmet with Nightvision? what I have to buy for it? Level 22

[woven siren]

depends on the nv but its mostly like this

if you link search the nightvision it will show you parts it should attach to

and these ones dont need extra attachments

they just stick to any helm with a slot

[hollow falcon]

new to the game and only played a couple times so far anyone willing to partner up? i got most of the base mechanics down like weapons ammo types etc just have nobody to play with and kind of sucks solo as a noob

[drifting jolt]

So... it legitimately is best to learn with a fellow noob, bc both of you can discuss and learn in real time together in and after raid...

[unkempt yew]

@drifting jolt you wont believe this, I survived and killed 8 scavs

[drifting jolt]

however, solo is harder, but you learn more and retain it more... squading up can be, and is, stressful, just keep that in mind.

[drifting jolt]

there you go!

fuckin eh!

[unkempt yew]

I think itz cuz am using a level 4 armour I stole from some dude while ratting

YEAH the armour saved me

I got like 2 heavy bleedings and 1 light bleeding while fighting like 5 scavs

[hollow falcon]

okay sounds about right lol i have one friend who plays but got some net issues so he rarely gewts on he showed me the basics and got me off the ground, also said to stick to a smaller squad as bigger squads cause confusion

[drifting jolt]

he was right... anything over a trio is dreadful lol

especially if one of those people are super paranoid and ask... 'who/what was that?!?!?' every 5 seconds lol

youre like... it's me... i havent movedfor 30 seconds'... lmao

[hollow falcon]

he said its more of a pain because too much talking aty once and cant listen to surroundings

[drifting jolt]

that sucks... but abruptly saying 'comms, comms' is the term for everyone to shut up

so keep that in mind

[hollow falcon]

noted i will keep this in mind

[tidal lagoon]

experience of players has a lot to say when it comes to squad size

[unkempt yew]

btw I want to ask why I always drop my mag while not quick reloading

[tidal lagoon]

u dont have space in ur rig to put them back

[unkempt yew]

ohhhh I see, thx

[drifting jolt]

@unkempt yew the mag coming out of the gun goes into the rig before the reloading mag comes out of the rig

[hollow falcon]

i would prefer to keep a small squad like 3 at best because running into squads as a solo is rough being newer to the game, had a squad camping the old gas station on customs got the one guy his buddy got me in the reload say day for the noob lol

sad**

i think i should ask what is the best map for going solo as a noob my friend started me on customs but not sure if this map is best for a noob as a solo seems more of a pvp pit

[drifting jolt]

the bigger the map, the better they are for surviving while solo, but that doesnt make them great lol

Shoreline is pretty damn big, but it's boring

Streets may burn your rig down lol

[tidal lagoon]

woods and customs u wanna start with

[hollow falcon]

was thinking about trying interchange was watching a yt video and sounds like its good for looting for money and mission items

[tidal lagoon]

lot of early quests there

[drifting jolt]

IC was my fav before Streets came out

[daring tiger]

any reccomendation on how to hyperscale my fence rep

[hollow falcon]

so far i have only played customs, ik not very adventurious lol

[drifting jolt]

Customs and Woods have the bulk of youre early quests

[hollow falcon]

so probably best to stick with customs for now then?

[daring tiger]

mote is right, customs woods and shoreline are gonna be your go to maps to learn plus mainly where all lvl 15 and below tasks are

[drifting jolt]

if youve got a knack for remembering maps easily

then not necessarily

[daring tiger]

customs was my first map i learned so personally i started there

[tidal lagoon]

u should go woods if anything and get that jaeger letter

[hollow falcon]

ehh kind of but not used to not having a map to ref

[daring tiger]

mapgenie is your best friend

was able to learn customs within a week with it

but yo mote, you got any tips on how to up my fence rep besides his tasks?

[hidden jolt]

Car extracts

[daring tiger]

bet

[hidden jolt]

Co op extract aswell

[daring tiger]

been extr forms vex

[hollow falcon]

i was using that onm my phone to help me nav the map lol i actually came from deadside because i finally had the coin for tarkov

[daring tiger]

thank you

[daring tiger]

using it on a 2nd monitor if possible and putting tarkov in borderless and running practice runs will help the MOST

just going straight to certain loot spawn so you know, sadly dynamic loot is here and obviously whats inside will vary

[drifting jolt]

you obviously arent scared to ask questions, and you seem eager to learn, those are the only things you need to get good at Tarkov

it's just how fast you soak it in overall

[hollow falcon]

i am very much so i love the game and would like to improve as much as possible. it is the best shooter i have played and has the most realistic mechanics out of all the survival style shooters ive tried. id say deadside is second best

[hidden jolt]

Research research research

Is the name of the game

Know everything

[sharp socket]

Knowing what your gear and your opponent’s gear and where everything is gives you an insane advantage, spend some time on the wiki or tarkov ballistics just looking at stuff because knowledge in such a complex game is very powerful

This man speaks the truth

[formal bay]

can anyone duo with me i have 188 hours with 2.0K/D

[wheat tree]

can someone link me like a good updated streets map

[hollow falcon]

will do thanks everyone

[hidden jolt]

Damn near might have more hours on the wiki and YouTube videos than tarkov

[lunar ibex]

skull

[cosmic viper]

Can someone help me through the payment process 🥲

It’s saying I never paid for the game but now I have $51.86 missing

[tidal lagoon]

what does ur profile page look like

[tidal lagoon]

thats unlucky go to #community-support theyll probably tell u to contact xsolla or smt

[cosmic viper]

I’ve been trying to contact xsolla but idk wtf that is, every time I go to contact them I gotta leave my company name and address

[tidal lagoon]

they are payment service provider

[cosmic viper]

How do I contact them?

[tidal lagoon]

https://xsolla.com/contact-us

[tardy crescent]

It does look like the payment went through

Have you tried signing out completely? I remember someone had a similar issue and that seemed to have fixed it

[spare robin]

How do people quickly transfer items when looting?

I noticed Youtubers can quickly loot items and sort their equipped gear fast to minimize the amount of time they need to spend in the open

[small bolt]

Ctrl and click i Think

Or alt

if slot empty

[haughty jungle]

Should i keep customs map plan??

[iron trellis]

how is the sp ammo for sks

[daring tiger]

pretty mid, but best option if no other

[iron trellis]

all my traders are lvl 1, is that the best then?

[daring tiger]

what are you options of ammo for it

[iron trellis]

fmj and hp

[daring tiger]

bcp fmj?

[iron trellis]

and sp

just fmj

[daring tiger]

sp or fmj are you options whichever stats you find more prefferable

since your traders are lvl one, do you have flea?

[iron trellis]

no

[daring tiger]

so then yea, sp or fmj

whichever stats you see fit

[pearl furnace]

I tended toward FMJ when lv1 vendors were all I had. I think it has better pen rating than the SP, but check eft-ammo to make sure.

[bold kernel]

You can just search up a Customs map online.

[haughty ingot]

if i were to buy eod in the middle of the wipe will i get the benefits now or would i have to wait?

[inner spire]

can sum1 help me ive played b4 but its been a long time and i never really did good

[daring tiger]

what do you need help with

[inner spire]

i get the concept i just hardly know where to go etc.

im ass

[haughty ingot]

so real

[daring tiger]

[daring tiger]

you can dm call me, but i may have this guy join if im able to help

[inner spire]

[haughty ingot]

and punisher and humanitarian supplies makes me wanna kms

[daring tiger]

ive done most shorelines i just started with lighthouse got a handful done

i can run with you to help later on but gonna run with this guy to get xp and money

[haughty ingot]

broadcast, signal part 3 drug traffiking, seaside vacation, anestesia

and all streets tasks and interchange

i hate both of those maps

[haughty ingot]

alr

[haughty ingot]

i have decent gear i could be a bodyguard of some sort

[daring tiger]

i plan to just run customs maybe shoreline for you if you join

[haughty ingot]

alr i know custom quite a bit so it wouldent be so bad

[daring tiger]

ill inv you to group

[iron trellis]

should i keep a gp or just sell it?

[wooden glade]

Sell

[halcyon totem]

how accurate are websites like https://tarkov.help/en/map/woods/

[tidal lagoon]

never heard of this site

just use wiki

[pearl furnace]

Could also grab Tarkov Map app (from mapgenie) if you're like me and have to use your phone as second screen.

[calm swan]

mapgenie and wiki maps are really

good

mapgenie the best but they dont have every map for free

[halcyon totem]

the website i linked has a very good UI

and supports loot markets with screenshots

just stumbled onto it so i'm wondering if anyone uses it

just comparing mapgenie with tarkovhelp, mapgenie lists 2 ledx spawns on woods, tarkovhelp lists 6

including a spawn in the bowl of sunken church

legit?

[elfin pendant]

time for some factory ks-23 flashbang trolling

[calm swan]

its good

[civic kiln]

oops i did it again

MWAHAHAHAHAHA

[woven siren]

Nicccce

[woven siren]

Loud guns>>>

[iron trellis]

[earnest yoke]

NUH

[jade needle]

I just bought the game and im gunna play later so if anyone wants to play Dm me

[uncut nimbus]

wat is more Budget Mk16 or M4?

[iron trellis]

who sells eko ammo?

[unreal adder]

Jaeger

[austere hound]

Right click gun, linked search, filter by ammo on the side

[halcyon totem]

people running around in woods with thermals already

[tidal lagoon]

mk16

[halcyon totem]

lmao, just realised the guy that died with his thermal g28 was wearing nvgs

no wonder he died

[rain fossil]

he probably turned them off whem he ads

[halcyon totem]

finnicky much

he died in triple cabins, which explains alot

[vital oasis]

interchange becoming more enjoyable

[halcyon totem]

nice

got a good camping spot to recommend inside interchange?

still need to do chumming

[pearl copper]

run off spawn

got 5 kills in interchange right at entrance of ikea

[halcyon totem]

wdym

[pearl copper]

run at other spawn near you, or the chokepoint of mall entrance where spawns near you converge

[halcyon totem]

will try that

[iron trellis]

what does synchronizing with other players mean

[pearl copper]

look up synchronizing swimming

[iron trellis]

does that mean the other people in the game im trying to load into have been waiting for 20 mins as well

[fallow comet]

this quest gives me -0.1 to jeager after reseting this quest ?

or just if i die from sanitar?

[pearl palm]

u fail by doing colleagues part 3

u can only do one of those
do colleagues 3, its much better rewards

[fallow comet]

ok but what if i meet sanitar ?

and he killed me

i losing 0.1 from jeager?

[pearl palm]

nothing happens

[fallow comet]

ok thanks for the answer bro

[pearl palm]

[woven siren]

basically if you see sanitar run or let him kill you

[fallow comet]

okey dont kill him bcs better is take calleagues part 3?

[woven siren]

yea

[fallow comet]

thanks bro also for anwers

[lone wyvern]

anyone got tips for the first jeager quest to unlock him?

ive tried 6-8 times and died

[torn rapids]

take your time

avoid hotspots

[lone wyvern]

thats what ive been doing

and ive been getting shot each time

[torn rapids]

go at night

[lone wyvern]

i dont have nvgs

im lvl 3

[torn rapids]

you don't need em

take a gun with a flash light

[lone wyvern]

i dont have that either

[torn rapids]

uhhhhh

ask @safe elk

[lone wyvern]

? why

[torn rapids]

they're better than me

and I'm going to sleep

[lone wyvern]

alright

[safe elk]

Good. snoreline tomorrow will be bountiful

Also yeah how can I help

[lone wyvern]

im trying to do the jeager introduction quest but i keep dying

[safe elk]

Roughly where in the world are you and what servers are you playing on

[lone wyvern]

united kingdom and eu servers

[modern mauve]

na eastern servers

[drifting jolt]

you could take it a little slower... cross around the bottom of the map, around the lake, through the middle around thee north of the mountain, or around the very top of the map... dont get in the other sections

dont cross right above lumber yard, try not to cross around where loot spawns...

so basically avoid loot to survive

[lone wyvern]

alright

[drifting jolt]

if youre avoiding loot, then youre avoiding most players

[safe elk]

Nice pfp change, if you can select Middle East servers, go during the day and bring a full auto weapon, avoid hotspots and move off of your spawn in a direction that doesn’t have many pmc spawns in, hope for a close spawn and don’t bother trying to loot on your way there

[drifting jolt]

unless you get unlucky and cross paths

[lone wyvern]

why go into middle eastern servers?

[safe elk]

Eepy

Especially at like 3-4am there

[drifting jolt]

low population

[lone wyvern]

ah

is this loadout any good

[pearl furnace]

Should add some cheap commtacs

[safe elk]

It ain’t full auto but it’ll do. Got any scopes you can put on?

[lone wyvern]

comtacs?

[modern mauve]

take more ammo to pack mags

[lone wyvern]

nah

[safe elk]

Can you run comtacs with pp helmet?

[pearl furnace]

Headset

[lone wyvern]

no

[safe elk]

See if you can buy any from traders

[safe elk]

Didn’t think so

[lone wyvern]

what scopes go on it

[safe elk]

Do you have your workbench in the hideout

[pearl furnace]

A few headsets fit under that helmet. Maybe not the actual CommTac headset, but definitely the cheap set Prapor sells at LL1.

[lone wyvern]

no

[modern mauve]

a ton of scopes remove the rear sight and replace the front gas block

[safe elk]

Can you get it

[lone wyvern]

i wouldnt assume so

im still lvl 3

i need these

[safe elk]

I see

In that case just see if you can get an okp

[lone wyvern]

who sells that

[safe elk]

Ah

Meant ekp

Wait

I’m pretty sure jager sells it

So that’s a no go

[lone wyvern]

damn

[safe elk]

Do you have any other guns in your stash?

Coz Adar with irons is an awful experience

[lone wyvern]

all my guns

[safe elk]

Just take that sks

[lone wyvern]

what ammo

[drifting jolt]

DO NOT use 20 round mags with the mp5... peacekeeper sells 30 rounder... using smaller mags on n smg is a terrible idea

[safe elk]

If you have any ps laying around, that

[drifting jolt]

762 ps, obviously

[lone wyvern]

non of that

i can only buy fmj too

[drifting jolt]

that'll have to do

[safe elk]

Yikes. Fmj it is

Just uh

Aim for the head

You ain’t getting through body armour with that

[lone wyvern]

so this is good

[safe elk]

Maybe grab 30 more rounds

Just to be safe

[lone wyvern]

alright

[drifting jolt]

Put the bandage and esmarch in your pocket hot keyed

[lone wyvern]

alright

[drifting jolt]

Then put painkiller in your secure and a stack of bullets.

[calm swan]

why do u have a wallet in ur container

[lone wyvern]

so i dont die with it

and lose money

[drifting jolt]

So roubles are usually only found in super small stacks.

It's not worth takin a wallet in for the very few roubles you'll find.

You may find stacks of dollars or euros, take those... but just take the painkillers out of your secure and put the cash there.

[lone wyvern]

oh alright

[drifting jolt]

You really don't want to pick up anything worth less than about 6 or 7k per slot.

[lone wyvern]

oh yeah

[drifting jolt]

But that's more when you unlock flea market.

[lone wyvern]

i forgot to heal after raid

how do i heal

[drifting jolt]

However you'll eventually get a documents case, that holds cash and keys. So you'll take that in instead of a wallet.

[drifting jolt]

Use heal items.,..

[calm swan]

dont use heal items pay therapist its super cheap

[drifting jolt]

You get healing exp.

[drifting jolt]

And it ends up being cheaper to heal yourself, once you find a grizzly.

[lone wyvern]

well im gonna go into raid

[drifting jolt]

Good luck

[restive linden]

i swear big sale is impossible

to finish

im lvl 35 and i tried 30 times now to finish it and its just impossible

[safe elk]

Switch up your method

It’s not that hard

[hidden jolt]

Ain’t no way lvl 35 on big sale

[drifting jolt]

pop an sj7 and tramidol... hit all the stores... try to hit avocado first

or go at night

then lay in a bush outside, then pop an sj6 and run and hit all of them

hide ofr like 20 minutes i mean

do the laundry, take a dump... whatever

[safe elk]

Do not do the latter

[restive linden]

yea and then i have 50 player scavs waiting for me 💀

[drifting jolt]

well PMCs are a bit more geared than scavs...

[restive linden]

didnt try a night raid, will give it a shot now

[drifting jolt]

it's kind of a cheap way to do it, but it's a valid strategy

[safe elk]

I was referring to the toilet part specifically

[restive linden]

the issue is that all the stores are so far away from each other

that its impossible to avoid pmcs

[drifting jolt]

why cant they poop? lol

[restive linden]

i go at night and get the farthest spawn 💀

[vital oasis]

any use for non fir dog tags?

[drifting jolt]

barters, quests

oh non

... no lol

[vital oasis]

i got all my chumming kills by just moving through kill scavs hitting tech spawns. These kills were while i was focusing decontamination service from therapist

[safe elk]

It always ends in tragedy

[vital oasis]

killed 5pmcs on shoreline, died to some random dude passing by lol

[drifting jolt]

that bastard!

[drifting jolt]

pooping?!

[safe elk]

While in raid yea

[vital oasis]

no worries went in with an m4 no rig or backpack lol

had 10 round mags

trying to finish peace keeping

wanna die

[restive linden]

btw what do i unlock at ragman lvl 3?

[fickle wigeon]

Whats a good kit I can buy at level 4?

[safe elk]

Read it at the top of the trader screen. You need money spent, level and rep

Same as every other trader level ever

[restive linden]

i meant

what items

[safe elk]

Huh

Oh

I misread

Apologies

[restive linden]

all good lol

[safe elk]

On the wiki, if you look up the trader you can select the loyalty level and it shows you what you get access to

[earnest yoke]

I just find that, its really fun to give new player gears but dont help them extract. That game would be really thrilling for them that way XD

And they can try out some high tier weapons they might never able to try out for a few wipes.

[restive linden]

wdym

[tribal flower]

Giving people free stuff but don’t do anything else for them

[vital oasis]

cursed m4

[tulip kettle]

Is interchange dead

why so long queue

[vital oasis]

yeah io had a few long queues today

also had people insta nade at start, probably cheaters loading in

[calm swan]

it is a dead map.

[tulip kettle]

Why

[dry flint]

probably one of the most exfil camped maps in the game

very risky to extract from emercom checkpoint. open area for snipers

and trainyard has toe munchers laying on the tracks that see your feet before you see them

[spare robin]

I feel like Interchange's exits need reworks

Compared to some of the other maps, exits don't feel as balanced overall

And there doesn't feel like there's many practical options

[dusk bear]

guys is it wise to get beta container from peacekeeper with barter? i am kinda new to game lvl17 and i dont have EOD.

[spare robin]

Not a pro, but if your current container is worse, I'd say it's better yeah. Guaranteeing loot is always good

[mint light]

if u dont plan on getting epsilon

[dusk bear]

I dont think i can make it to epsilon at least for 2 wipes 😄 trying to learn the game

[dry flint]

its doable. this is my first full wipe(i joined 1 month before this wipe) and i managed to complete punisher 6 ffor epsilon.

just need to get part 4 with shoreline over with then its easy

[rough rain]

Hello. I am extremely new to modding weapons in tarkov, so i was just wondering what the 'goliaf' handguard for the aks74u was for, and how i can put it on my aks74u?

[tulip kettle]

bro the matching times in this game are so long

i just load in for 5 minutes just to die under 3

half my time playing is in the menu

[mint fractal]

is scav rep for vehicle extract reset daily or per wipe

[tribal flower]

No one seems to like interchange lol

[tribal flower]

If you mean how much you get, it depends on number of uses consecutively

If you keep using one you’ll get less and less

Gotta rotate them on different maps

So like use woods one once or twice

[mint fractal]

This wipe, ive used al car extracts 4x

[tribal flower]

Then go to customs or interchange

Or streets

And use that one once or twice

Then move to another

[mint fractal]

so if i havnt used woods at all today, but have others, woods will give .4?

[tribal flower]

It should, if not close

Even if you play it same day it should give the same amount

[mint fractal]

I thought it was .4/(Times used this wipe)

[tribal flower]

Could be and I’m crazy. I just heard the more you use it in a row the less you get, but if you rotate maps using it you’ll still get high amounts

[tulip kettle]

Did we trade?

i saw his body drop

[dusk bear]

i am not that confident on myself 😄 been playing for 100ish hours, i am still level 17 and i have 20 pmc kills yet 😛

[long plank]

I'm still not confident with 500 hours lol

[vivid thunder]

is this task even possible, the VKBO bag I can somewhat farm from Scavs, but the first bag?

[crimson flare]

Yeah he 100% dead

[vivid thunder]

the last shot hit his head gg

[candid shadow]

I’d farm rouges for the drawbridge

[dapper bramble]

Whats the best way of getting thicc items cases its my first wipe and all traders are maxed, but ive seen people have inventorys of them and was curious

[vivid thunder]

alcohol barter trade with lvl4 Therapist if you want more than one
If you want just one, do the Health Care Privacy task-line from Therapist

[vivid thunder]

I've killed 0 rogues this wipe, and only 2 last wipe; this is gonna be tough

[dapper bramble]

Yeah I got that done and only had one, 50 moonshine for that barter is wild but I guess out of all the barters thats the cheapesy

[vivid thunder]

well, THICC item case saves A LOT of space, I had 2 last wipe myself
One from the taskline, one from alcohol barter
I needed 6 holodilnicks to store everything

[dapper bramble]

Guess Ill start saving my moonshine from crafting to get it, just seeing people with like 10 thicc cases is a wild concept

[vivid thunder]

they play 12 hours a day non-stop, and hit hotspots for good loot and pvp
that's what it takes

people with more than 4 THICC Item cases are probably the 1%

[dapper bramble]

Yeah makes sense even 2 thicc cases seems like theyd be enough for me but cant stop my booze generator and gonna craft a bunch of vodka lol

Yeah the 10 was obviously me overexaggerating but its still kinda crazy

I appreciate you taking your time to explain it

[tulip kettle]

Why is the audio so fucked

scavs are literally silent

[dry flint]

cause its tarkov. audio is shit 50% of the time. sometimes even when im walking/running, the sound im making somehow makes it so that it feels like it was from a player from distance away. I cant count how many times i had to stop/slow down to make sure i wasnt being followed

[vital oasis]

howre night raids on streets? i just wanna quest

dunno the map well

[dry flint]

its ok, to do it at night. i would suggest getting used to it with offline day first tho because navigating at night is a pain

[gusty furnace]

are bitcoins only to be bartered or sold to traders for rubles? theres no other way to profit from them correct?

[calm swan]

they started sneak walking this wipe

[dry flint]

you can get them for 2 Tetris and 2 green batteries for like 200k and sell for therapist for 350k+ for profit. and to use them, i think they can only be bartered for a weapon case for 10 bitcoins, but its not worth it, so basically yah just sell it to therapist for 350k+ a pop

[gusty furnace]

thank you

[chilly dagger]

why does loading into scavs on lighthouse and reserve go from short to long randomly through the day

[noble kelp]

@manic shell Why did you block me?

That honestly sucks bro

[lunar ibex]

amt of ppl trying to scav the map

those are popular maps to scav

[vital oasis]

GETTING 1 TAPPED BY A SCAV ON FIRST SIGHT >>>>>>

[hazy gull]

Better than spawning into factory as a scav and the boss scav comes running around the corner swinging …………. I wasnt ready for the one today 🫨

[vital oasis]

ive had that too haha

[hazy gull]

Ive had him chase me around factory and trap me in the office and smack me around right before i extracted too much much annoyed with that one

[glossy cave]

anyone free to help a begginer?

[tribal flower]

Help how?

[mystic cipher]

How do you put guns on the weapon stand?
it only gives me a prompt to level it further

[unreal adder]

There should be a transfer item button

[dry flint]

relaunch the game if you dont have the option

[mystic cipher]

that worked, thanks

[drifting jolt]

looks like it

[drifting jolt]

you have to hit transfer on the menu for the weapon stand

then you can transfer

you can transfer pistol gripless guns too, but you cant move em around on the stand, can just ctrl + click them in

For example

[mystic cipher]

there just wasnt a transfer button

[drifting jolt]

gotcha, if you restart, should pop up

[unreal adder]

Can you load into night-time interchange to help me with insomnia

[drifting jolt]

Make Interchange Great Again!

[unreal adder]

Really, I loaded customs 3x in a row and didnt see a single pmc

Might just be my servers

Hmm, i stopped by fortress and crack but didnt hear anything

The 3 raids i did were all dead silent

might be time to switch servers

[heady flicker]

doublechecking, when i shoot a flare at klimov is there supposed to be a little indicator when i open the extracts menu? or do i just gotta trust

[bold kernel]

i believe so yes

i just bring 2 flares in case

[heady flicker]

thanky

good to know i keep fucking up, then

have tried like 5 flares over 4 raids lol

[kind basin]

which is better pso or fmj?

[uncut nimbus]

9x19?

[red forge]

Hello, just a curious question, ive seen peoples levels on tags, does tarkov have a system where it matches levels that are close to eachother?

[drifting jolt]

none

you dont 'match' with anyone

a raid fills up, it starts

some times it doesnt fill up, and starts

[haughty jungle]

Need help on what to keep

[drifting jolt]

well if you remove the mags and pistol grips from most of your guns, they get much smaller

then put the pistol grips ina bag or rig to keep track of them

[haughty jungle]

what should i keep from my junk box?

[drifting jolt]

im not the best person to ask, cause i always forget what all is needed for hideout and quests

google 'item list for tarkov hideout and quests'

im sure there's some links that'll list/show all the items you need to keep

[olive cape]

Do rogues shoot scavs on sight? Or can you just go up to them and line up a headshot for free gear?

[drifting jolt]

nah, they might not shoot at you right away

but they will aggro you at some point

[olive cape]

there is a rogue that kinda just kept manning the machine gun and didnt really care about me until another scav came up and shot him in the head

[lavish anvil]

Are shotguns okay for a budget run? For reference im only level 5

[pastel snow]

if ur level 36 below u want keep everything bc all of them are needed for hidout upgrade

[tribal flower]

they dont care much unless you get to close or aim at them without shooting them

[tacit cosmos]

What helmet/armor/rig do you guys recommend when playing mainly a sniper playstyle?

I have unlocked the fleemarket just now btw

[halcyon totem]

where's the best place to find AHF1 stimulants, excluding labs

[safe elk]

Why not labs

[halcyon totem]

too noob

[safe elk]

Gotta learn it somehow

Go with a group, you’ll be fine

[halcyon totem]

well, more like i keep running into groups

solo playing all the way

[shadow marlin]

All you need to do is bring a svt and rush black card that doesnt require skill

[halcyon totem]

not actually noob, but the way this game is made, groups always have the advantage

[shadow marlin]

Youll get lucky exentually

Groups dont have that big of an advantage

[halcyon totem]

when they are at POIs like extracts or rare spawn locations, they do

u have to go to them

[shadow marlin]

They have to figure out that your an enemy first

[dry flint]

if you are afraid of pvp but not PVE. then shoreline boss/boss guards can spawn the stims for the sample quest

[halcyon totem]

eh not here to discuss solo/groups, seen alot of wishful thinking here

if u were in a group, do u actually think u would fall for the tips that gets dished out here

[shadow marlin]

Just scav alot and hope you spawn with an ahf1 that also can happen

[tidal lagoon]

over 50 % of groups are braindead

[shadow marlin]

I become stupider when im with more that one other person personally

[halcyon totem]

like i said, alot of copium and wishful thinking

[tidal lagoon]

hardly

[halcyon totem]

any specific injector spawns? i've seen alot of other injectors in lighthouse, cracked boxes and weed farm

AHF1 seems pretty rare though

[dry flint]

they spawn randomly. I killed the boss and guards twice over this wipe and i managed to almost complete samples. Im just missing mule as of right now

so i did get the ahf1 from them, or maybe it was from a scav run. but the guards do spawn lots of stims

[halcyon totem]

unfortunately, i finished samples b4 colleagues 3

now stuck at collegues 3, can't kill sanitar

[dry flint]

just kill him, black keycard is only like 4mil anyway

[quasi peak]

I have a question. Is the Flir RS-32 2.25-9x 35mm 60hz thermal rifle scope a good scope?

[edgy night]

what key is broadcast part 1

[quasi peak]

operating room key

[regal nest]

What are the most popular areas inside assessment part 1 area?

[orchid isle]

nope thats defo a lie, full time solo player here

both have their benefits

groups are easier to take out imo, you have sound and usually groups are less confident so if you play like a monkey its easy wraps

id ratehr fight groups than 1 guy

unlesss they're super organized

[halcyon totem]

wow super big qualifier here

[orchid isle]

which is almsot never

[halcyon totem]

glad i didn't even have to type in my response

[orchid isle]

run dead servers and rush black if u really need it

[limpid plinth]

hey can someone explain to me how rogues work, ive been farming rogues on lighthouse but i dont get it, if i kill one i get beamed across the map from one on a tower, i just scavved in and point blank shot a rogue 5 times in the head with a saiga and he turned around and killed me

are their hitboxes different or something

[ionic gyro]

Does scav run xp count towards lv

[limpid plinth]

im pretty sure scav xp doesn't go to your pmc

[whole thistle]

no

[ionic gyro]

And how to get docs case

[lunar ibex]

therapist barter or flea

[tulip kettle]

Why do poeple do this?? i killed a guy whos wearing a level 6 vest but level 1 facemask??

[ionic gyro]

Do snipers kills scavs

Bc I was js in a raid 3 minutes left and I got killed I don’t think pmc still eating w three seconds left

[tame current]

why can't they hard-code scavs not to headshot you

not that difficult

fucking hell

I run past a scav, I hear shuffling, I turn around and head jaws with buckshot

just make it so they deal 0 damage to x-body part

or that they can only hit headshots after a certain time from the agro and not on their first fucking shot

the fun part is that raiders or bosses never headshot me by virtue of not having buckshot

they just don't do it tbh

went to dorms, metal stairs I open the door, turn around for a moent because I hear noise

scav comes out

"blyat"

insta head-eyes with sks

rather die to a cheater than to this bs

[halcyon totem]

killed a dude yesterday night with a 800k gun, G28 with FLIR, with slick and a strapped armorless NVG , some people are just pretty confident they can kill you before you even get a glimpse at them

either that or RMT, they piss cash and dont give af

[tidal lagoon]

wildest fucking shit ive heard

[fluid gyro]

nah but what is this

how am i supposed to play

[lime fiber]

because most helmets are useless towards good ammo so they wear the face shield purely for the ricochet chance, doesn't matter that it's level 1 because it still has a High ricochet chance
that and altyn/rys-t are banned from flea now

[whole thistle]

you can see what killed you in the post raid screen

[ionic gyro]

Nothing was said

I looked it up

Ig I walked into no man’s land

[inner flume]

If it says "Gunshot Wound" its the out of bounds snipers

[tulip kettle]

do people actually slow walk for this long???

[heady sundial]

`how much fps should i be getting on streets with ryzen 7 5800x, gtx 1080 32 ram 3600mhz
im hovering low 70s
and no matter what settings i change i gain no performance
ultra or low i sit at around 60
i have no clue why and its really frustrating

thats on basically all maps

[tidal lagoon]

idk but id be happy with 70 fps on streets

[heady sundial]

its not constant 70 thats the problem

it dips below 60 for a split second and thats what messes me up

[tulip kettle]

stuttering

[heady sundial]

i feel like id be better off capping it to 50 so it doesnt fluncuate between smooth and not smooth

[tulip kettle]

probably ram

[heady sundial]

no its not stuttering

its

its weird

32 ram 3600 is enough

even tho i max it out on streets sometimes

game is messed up

8ram

i thought it might be card problem but

i get ZERO performance when i turn downsampling and lower resolution

litteraly ZERO fps boost

which means its not card

[vital oasis]

why is the trizip 13kg

wtf lol

[tidal lagoon]

cuz there is stuff inside it

[halcyon totem]

in tarkov's case, the silent and slow bird gets the worms

do you use amplifiers? you seem to pick up the slow walk sounds pretty clear, if it was me, i probably would not have heard it at all

[tidal lagoon]

he didnt slow walk when he heard him

[unreal marsh]

what to sell at lvl 19

[halcyon totem]

sell fuel, wires, stuff that stays at relatively the same price

when you need them you can buy them off flea, sometimes for prices cheaper then what you sold it at

always keep stuff that will jump in price, or for quests

[vital oasis]

check tarkov market

.com

also, would highly reccomend getting into crafting

free money

[lime fiber]

sell tank batt to therapist if you aren't going for kappa

[vital oasis]

same

[unique sphinx]

can s0me0ne help me with delivery fr0m the past

[haughty jungle]

Anyone know why it won’t let me change scopes?

[tidal lagoon]

wdym change scopes? toggle the magnification or take the entire thing off and put on a new one?

[haughty jungle]

change between the holo and the sniper scope

[tidal lagoon]

well u can only change in game with the keybind

[haughty jungle]

would the hideout not work?

[tidal lagoon]

u can change it but it will not be saved

[haughty jungle]

its not letting metoggle between the 2

[tidal lagoon]

have u double checked ur keybind

[haughty jungle]

yeah Z

[tidal lagoon]

and its on press?

try a different bind too just to double check

[vital oasis]

is anyone having a bug where they chose a raid time and they dont get into that time?

back to back woods raids. trying to go night and I get day

when I 100% picked night

[formal furnace]

there's only 1 gas station in customs right? tryna find the leatherman mulitool

[tidal lagoon]

no

[tidal lagoon]

2

[formal furnace]

what

[tidal lagoon]

new gas and old gas

[formal furnace]

huh am i blind

is the one near warehouse 4 the old gas?

OH I SEE THE OLD GAS AT THE SOUTH

okay thanks

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[frigid finch]

theres a reason i use 100 rd mags lol

[digital trout]

It’s not dark in the game until around 19:00

[frigid finch]

not until like 2100.....it stays normal until then

[slow smelt]

i really have no stuff or no money and i always die when im playing scav and im level 14, can someone help me with weapons and stuff like that and get me to level 15 pease?

[jade needle]

if anyone wants to play dm me im brand new lol

[grand spoke]

is there a way to convert from usd to roubles? I've got over 8k usd that I have no use for

[hollow tartan]

I have a question about factory weapon cases. I notice black weapon cases spawn sometimes on the blue boxes in the raid, and I've heard rumors that you can pick them up if you have 5x2 or more space, but my current bag won't carry them.

-If applicable, what are the restrictions on bags for picking up weapon cases? Do I need a specific bag?
-Otherwise, can you even pick up these weapon cases?

[lime fiber]

you can't pick em up, no lootable weapon cases spawn in raid anymore afaik

they used to be in marked rooms

[tidal lagoon]

you will have a use for them

but no there isnt

[hollow tartan]

That's really unfortunate. I noticed Shroud was able to loot them a while back.

[grand spoke]

WHY TF DOES SPACE BUY ITEMS FROM TRADERS I JUST BOUGHT THE ALPHA CONTAINER FOR 6K OMFG

[tidal lagoon]

bro

i mean i guess u found a use but damn

[grand spoke]

I accidently clicked space while hovering over the most expensive item and it just bought it

that took me so long to build up

[tidal lagoon]

guess ull just have to build it up again

[grand spoke]

can you sell alpha containers to anyone

[tidal lagoon]

its only like 2-3 mil or smt tho so its not that bad

fence maybe idk

[hollow tartan]

this is what im talking about btw

[tidal lagoon]

ull get like nothing tho

[tidal lagoon]

u could never pick those up

[hollow tartan]

DAMN

[tidal lagoon]

there were some with probably a very similar model spawning in marked rooms before but those are long gone

[hollow tartan]

i was so close to a money making method lmaoooo

[tidal lagoon]

would have been an incredible one since the small ones go for at least 4 mil each

[bold kernel]

Imagine you could pick those up and get free weapons cases. 💀

[lime fiber]

yeah the standard weapons case used to be in marked rooms, could fill them up with so much loot

[uncut nimbus]

best way 2 get GPUs?

[frigid finch]

scav/pmc interchange, prolly the most reliable

[uncut nimbus]

Oki doki

[vital oasis]

why is bunker marked so ass

hit it 8 times now and best ive had is a 556 mdr lol

[tidal lagoon]

ask bsg

but its 200k for a reason

[lime fiber]

that marked has always been ass

[olive cape]

I need to finish Signal Part 2 and Farming part 2 by mechanic, I need PCBs, RBatteries and broken GPhones, can anyone give me tips on how or where to get these?

[vital oasis]

gonna hit it once more and trade for dorms marked

[lime fiber]

yeah that's the only thing it's good for

even before marked rooms got nerfed it was ass most of the time

[vital oasis]

i have a few more hits on rbvo

bk been the best for me

vo lots of weaponms

[viral prawn]

make sure to check in the shelves on the floor and on top of the filing cabinet

[low arch]

Buckshot or slugs for general use?

[tidal lagoon]

buck

[vast temple]

Just cleaned up a fight with a normal sv 98, should I just sell everything here?

[unkempt egret]

Depends on what you want to use yourself later.

[vast temple]

I will for sure use the sv 98, trying to get shooter born task

[vital oasis]

would ditch the mk17 but keep the scope

and suppressor and foregrip

that ak101 is meta would use

water filt is expensive if you craft

keep the ammo if good

sake is good

mp7 if you use it

[vast temple]

Is m62 good?

[vital oasis]

that fast is the rep would sell

[vital oasis]

https://www.eft-ammo.com/

[vital oasis]

762 im assuming ?\

[vast temple]

yeah

[vital oasis]

yeah you can buy at pk4

[tidal lagoon]

2 taps lvl 4 but not worth buying imo

4x price of m80

[unkempt egret]

The 101 is a meta build, the QDC and saker are meta supressors so keep those, the Surv 12 can go into your secure, the PS 320 is worth holding on to and I'd take the MK17's supressor, grip and scope unless you're looking for a dmr

[tidal lagoon]

mk17 is fire as just a rifle not just dmr

[vast temple]

I'm only level 24 so I'm a bit far from that haha

[vital oasis]

would keep if you like sniping

[vital oasis]

true

[vital oasis]

too heavy. hate the scars in this game

[tidal lagoon]

wild

i love them

quick to mod full auto 762x51

[pearl furnace]

Hey, uh, seems like I'm the only one putting Pilgrim on the flea. Any suggestions for a price?

Or should I just vendor it?

[austere hound]

I thought pilgrim was flea banned

[pearl furnace]

Just saw that in the Wiki. Sigh.

[austere hound]

It's a bad backpack anyways. Just vendor it. Makes you so ridiculously visible

[pearl furnace]

No for sure, had no intention of keeping it. Just trying to maximize profits.

[austere hound]

Yeah sadly just gotta vendor it

[pearl furnace]

Lame, but thanks for the help anyway @austere hound

[austere hound]

np

[viral prawn]

It's good for Labs

Everything in labs is white/blue colour scheme, and everyone is ESPing or has already heard you

[austere hound]

Fair

[pearl furnace]

Labs...labs scares me.

I'm still pretty awful at PvP, so players and raiders would eat me alive.

[viral prawn]

Ugh, just dropped a dude camping out a 2 man

then 2 man wipes out other 2 man, so i attack that 2 man

but then another dude swoops and in gets me and him

so now there are 9 bodies and 1 survivor outside black

also another 2 man ran in somewhere in that

[low arch]

W

[earnest spindle]

anyone wanna run some labs

[bold kernel]

EZLOOTGETBETTER is team killing

[keen wyvern]

So i see tasks but how do I accept them? in videos it shows excatly what they need but for me it only shows a paragraph of text

[drifting jolt]

you have to accept

left side, less than halfway down

[keen wyvern]

gotcha, just overlooked it

[drifting jolt]

you have to 'complete' them too, and manually turn in quest items

[keen wyvern]

kept looking for the accept button just couldnt find it xd

[torpid bluff]

Anyone able to run Signal Part 1 with me I got no clue where anything is on shoreline

[umbral wedge]

just started 3 days ago lfg

[torn rapids]

they moved it this wipe

[drifting jolt]

can also try #pvp-lfg

[digital trout]

can anyone hit black room for me for samples quest

[keen wyvern]

just hit my first extraction lets go

got some keys too

RB-ST key and W219

better to save for flea or sell to vendor? or keep

[bleak berry]

guys how do i set the path to tarkov to my e drive im having problems and it keeps saying user action required???

[lilac lion]

is the npp kiass kora-kulon armor any good

[formal furnace]

is the leatherman multitool just really rare? been tryna find one for 4 hours

[vast temple]

You can buy it from Mechanic

[formal furnace]

I now feel stupid

[formal furnace]

thank you so much

[vast temple]

haha yeah, not really your fault tho

[tulip kettle]

is the noise where when i’m standing still and turn around and make a small footstep audible to others?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

if u wanna turn without making noise go full silent walk then make circles with WASD while turning

u dont make noise turning if u are moving

[halcyon garnet]

any ways to aggro raiders without nades?

for no place for renegades

[tidal lagoon]

flashbang

[halcyon garnet]

does shooting work?

[tidal lagoon]

only if u shoot them

[halcyon garnet]

damn

and where can i find bunkhouse key for bad rep evidence

[tacit bronze]

JUST wondering if anyone could help me with solo anxiety. Its my 5th wipe and i still struggle playing solo pmcs

[tacit bronze]

wiki is your friend. The locked door on factory in he office

[halcyon garnet]

dont you need a key for that

[halcyon garnet]

factory exit key

[tacit bronze]

yes factory emergency exit

[halcyon garnet]

i have it but im trying to kill raiders rn

for a task

[halcyon garnet]

ty

every guide i saw showed me the exact same place

[lean bronze]

can someone explain to me why this mp5 doesnt complete gunsmith part 3. I've double checked everything and it should meet every qualification but mechanic is being picky today apparently

45 ergo, less than 200 recoil, sighted at over 200m, 50 round drum, just below 4kg

has flashlight

[tacit bronze]

from watching a vid urs seems v overthe top lol

[tacit bronze]

u have ther wrong bodys i believe

[lean bronze]

im enjoying the journey smh

[tidal lagoon]

u need to demod that mp5

[lean bronze]

gunsmith doesnt specify it needs to be an SD upper tho

[tacit bronze]

wiki ur friend 😄

[lean bronze]

b r u h

[tidal lagoon]

it does indirectly

[lean bronze]

just says it needs to be suppressed

[tidal lagoon]

that shift u need for a future gunsmith

part 6 i think

[lean bronze]

im going to throw a fit at mechanic for not specifying

[tidal lagoon]

u right actually but now u know not to use in game guidance for tasks at least

no one does that really

just insta wiki

[earnest yoke]

do raiders in underground reserve spawn the second you power on electic? or do they spawn a bit later? Does anyone know?

[tacit bronze]

yeah gives me a headache reading the tasks i never do it

[tidal lagoon]

instant

[tacit bronze]

i always assumed it was instantly not too sure tho

[earnest yoke]

Alright thx

[tidal lagoon]

raiders can spawn at start of raid, when power is pulled and when D-2 extract button is pushed

[earnest yoke]

I have being running so many games that non raider spawn

[tacit bronze]

probs jus unlucky

[earnest yoke]

And theres also no pmc and no gun fights

[tacit bronze]

maybe change ur servers

[earnest yoke]

Good point, will do that

[tulip kettle]

in the launcher

it says reset game progress or something like that and it brings you to the website

[tulip kettle]

im@good thanks

[lime fiber]

resetting your account is never worth, you can always get back up from a few scavs

[high crescent]

[sweet trout]

[tidal lagoon]

[jagged laurel]

Need a good loot run

[tidal lagoon]

youtube

[jagged laurel]

They all suck at making tons of money

[tidal lagoon]

what is tons of money

how much u looking for each run

looting all the concordia apartments on streets gives quite a good bit by itself at least and its all close to each other so its fast

[lime fiber]

doesn't prapor still send you care packages when ur really low on rubles

[spare robin]

In a match?

[lime fiber]

no in mail

he sends you some cheap weapons and stuff, i haven't been down bad enough to get it in a long time though

[tidal lagoon]

i thought it was just once at the start of wipe he would send u a random package

not if u were poor

[jagged laurel]

Lost 48 mil in the last two days

So something around there

In a few days or so

[lime fiber]

ah okay my bad @tidal lagoon I wasn't sure

[tidal lagoon]

im not sure either

[lime fiber]

"If your stash value is less then 50k roubles, Prapor will send you a care package once every 24 hours."

[tidal lagoon]

ye ion think u will be making 48 back in 2 days but u can get some decent numbers running keys on street

[lime fiber]

googled it

[tidal lagoon]

stash value damn

[lime fiber]

prapor is a g

yeah you have to be REALLY broke lmao

[tidal lagoon]

not even just have under 50k rubles ur fucking stash value

[jagged laurel]

Less than 50k

[tidal lagoon]

extremely down bad

[jagged laurel]

I don’t know if that’s even possible

Isn’t a game 60k stash value?

[lime fiber]

look in beginners-chat @jagged laurel

[tidal lagoon]

ye tyskie is doing quite fine on that

[jagged laurel]

Wtf

[lime fiber]

the care package isn't much though from what i remember, a scav run is probs better

[jagged laurel]

It’s normally under 45k in value

It’s like a base sks and a couple of billets

[high crescent]

i got like 400k

prapor give me the loot

[normal topaz]

how to break arm so i can kill 1 more pmc with tremor effect

[sick portal]

[tidal sky]

I need help for lighthouse/shorline quest

[sweet ibex]

Just wanted some nuts and bolts....

[dry flint]

[normal topaz]

got quest done killed 5 man as solo on streets

[drifting jolt]

minus points for no reload slot

[lime fiber]

nice what map? did you get the labs cards from filing cabinets

[drifting jolt]

most likely...

[drifting jolt]

minus points for no reload slot... or just drop the mag and fill that slot with loot

[lime fiber]

I was going to ditch the mag but time was running low I just left

[drifting jolt]

ok, you get a pass 🙂

[tulip kettle]

bro none of the maps are good for loot runs

everybody just looks for pvp and i can never extract

[viral prawn]

Need help making some dosh?

[dry flint]

came looking for a hideout comp for intel 3, got gpu and bitcoin instead lol

i hate working nightshift, but playing on monday morning is so calm that i can play labs with almost no pvp

How do I detect and find silent players?

People creeping around after noticing them, then they vanish after you turn a corner to try and flank

They make it look so easy in Youtube videos

[drifting jolt]

you wear a headset, or turn your IRL headset volume up

people arent totally silent

they still make a small amount of noise when crepeing

[spare robin]

Rain must be obnoxious then overall

[drifting jolt]

nah it's better, you can sneak around more undetected

[spare robin]

I'm wearing a IRL headset with the volume... fairly loud

[drifting jolt]

use it to your advantage

[drifting jolt]

in game headsets dull the sound of rain

and bushes and such

[spare robin]

We don't all have full gear sets.

[drifting jolt]

no shit...

[spare robin]

So, are there any basekit tricks I can use to deal with this problem?

[drifting jolt]

nope

@spare robin

This barter is basically the only thing you can use til you level traders/get flea

[spare robin]

Some of the "skill" smoke and mirrors just went out the window lmao

[drifting jolt]

higher level players will always have an advantage over you

[spare robin]

You mean people with full gear sets.

[drifting jolt]

that too

[spare robin]

Or who have the money to run full gear sets.

Which isn't skill.

[drifting jolt]

what's your point?

[spare robin]

Like people try to make things out to be, 100% of the time

[drifting jolt]

i dont quite grasp what you mean... obviously, if a person has way better gear than you, youre at a disadvantage

[spare robin]

Your solution is "use headsets lol" in a game where you lose everything on death... meaning that it's not practical advice, you can't have headsets available 24/7.

[lime fiber]

i have lvl 1 traders and buy headsets wdym

[drifting jolt]

you asked, i gave you the answer

[spare robin]

And people love to go "skill issue" with me whenever I point something out as an outsider looking in

[drifting jolt]

im not a fuckin wizard

[lime fiber]

17.5k @spare robin

[dry flint]

better headsets have longer pickup range

[spare robin]

17k? LMAO

[dry flint]

so yes, it is practically better gear, better chance to win

[spare robin]

You're missing the point

[drifting jolt]

false, GSSHs have the best hearing range, but are one of the worst headsets

[lime fiber]

i don't like them either, but better than nothing

[dry flint]

arent comtacs 2 supposed to be the best?

[drifting jolt]

not sure

[spare robin]

Not to mention that advantages are fine, but the counterplay to a common scenario shouldn't just be "run a headset lol"
