[flat dune]

so u black their leg and then damage spreads through whole body and kills em

[light latch]

face masks aside which nobody is running in ground zero

but arent the legs a harder target than the head

[unreal horizon]

if they have a face mask and you have flesh ammo, and just that legs are a bigger target

[flat dune]

sometimes ig

but legs can never have armor

aim legs unless your sure that they dont have face masks or anything

[light latch]

actually i guess legs are obviously a larger target than head, probably just not used to aiming legs since i never do that in other games

[flat dune]

cuz you can have like lvl 3 or 4 face shields / masks

[light latch]

where does this hitbox extend to? hips and under = legs?

[flat dune]

yeah. the kedr and other low pen ammos are pretty much the only time you do that

[light latch]

like is a dick shot = legs

[flat dune]

legit the whole leg

pretty sure

youd have to look it up to double check but my understanding is that its all the leg

but groin can have armor so

[light latch]

oo kk

[flat dune]

basically, aim legs for low pen ammo but if you run good ammo like m80 or m856a1 just aim for head

[light latch]

also are there any good stopping points where i can get "decent" ammo w/ a kit i can rebuy from flea market without having to do tons of quests? for ex. Lv X ____ trader (or Lv X ____ to craft from hideout)

im mostly just looking to PVP with a decent enough kit, dont need the highest tier stuff

[flat dune]

yeah theres some good ammos that you can craft or buy from flea

you can craft sost 5.56 ammo thats good. you can craft ap 9x19 ammo, you can barter for bt from prapor

thats just off the top of my head but theres alot of ammos that you can get like that

theres one ammo i do suggest you do quests for and thats m80, its down peacekeepers questline but its worth it 100%

cheap and pens practically anything

id also suggest run a 5.45 ammo gun cuz that ammo type spawns regularly and you can easily get some good ammo

[light latch]

will that involve any of the annoying ones where you gotta use specific weapons and like have a headache or some shit while killing people

[flat dune]

kind of, one quest you kill scavs with an m4 and untar gear on, not annoying just weird

if i remember its pretty easy

[light latch]

i dont mind the simpler quests that basically direct you to locations at all

[light latch]

ooo kk thats not bad then

[flat dune]

they arent bad at all, 100% worth it and its just down his normal questline so you'll prolly do it anyway for pk3/4

[orchid isle]

The lower the dura the more chance to pen, theres a threshhold to where it can start penning with like 0.x% chance but most likely ur softarmor was broken and he penned that

[weary quartz]

What is the best rig and backpack for budget

[ancient thorn]

whats the best grip someone with level 3 traders can get ?

[ancient thorn]

or one that is cheap on the flea

[austere current]

guys, i need to mark tanks on lighthouse near rogue camp, do i have to clear rogues first? or will they aggro at me

[light latch]

if you were lv 15 with like lv 2 traders what would be your go-to kit that doesnt cost too much? Like lets say im down to lose up to 200-250k if i die

I'm getting an aneurism with too much different loot, entire storage is filled with random ass ammo, guns, food, and 3 junk boxes filled with barter items (which at least i can shove them in there)

[flat dune]

f1 st1 i think

[light latch]

i prety much want to reduce the loot system to:

• i have X money
• if i die, i just rebuy my kit so i lose some money
• whatever loot i bring out i just liquidate to add to my money stash if its not part of my kit

[flat dune]

id prolly run a ak74u with some ammo that i occured over time or id run like a kedr and go factory, leg meta a chad, and use his kit lol

i dont really remember what i used then

[ancient thorn]

basically cod dmz

[flat dune]

dmz was so good

[ancient thorn]

oof

[flat dune]

wish they didnt make zombies like it

[flat dune]

when it first came out

[ancient thorn]

never appealed to me, but i guess its my fault to believe their advertisement looking like it was a tarkov-like

[flat dune]

oreo you can buy ps ammo 5.45, its decent, off flea for like 300 a bullet

run that in a 74u and you can do pretty well

[ancient thorn]

how many hours do u have ingame ?

[light latch]

yeah theres like too much loot and i dont wanna organize my stash and learn everything, just wanna shoot stuff

[ancient thorn]

theres tarkov arena, just like u said, no inventory, just money in and money out, and just shooting stuff

not my jam but its exactly what you are looking for

[light latch]

not many, im level 10

[flat dune]

run factory with kedr, shoot leg, get loot

[ancient thorn]

yeah, ur first few tens of hours will be like that

[light latch]

i play a lot of tac shooters (squad / insurgency / ready or not etc) but looking for something to hold me over til GZW comes out

[ancient thorn]

even ur first few hundreds

ur going to be lost and overwhelmed

its just part of the experience, makes the feeling of know-how so much better

[light latch]

oo nice, ill probably do something like that when i hit 15 and liquidate everything

[flat dune]

once you get flea, i recommend buying a good marked key if you have the money for it

its my first wipe aswell and i just ran rb-vo a ton and profited about 10 million roubles all together

[astral glen]

Marked keys got some goodies fr

Good way to farm spears too if you ain’t doing LK

There have been pre wipe events where entry to The Lab was free for a short period of time

[flat dune]

if only spear wasnt locked behind all lk quests

[peak lance]

Hey man I need someone to run customs dorms with me, I need to plant a marker on dorms marked room if anyone's got a key

[weary quartz]

best helm and armor for lvl 1 trader?

[austere current]

does any1 have this problem? when you forgot to remove slow walk and die from a fight.....

instead sprinting, u fcking walk instead kekw

[solar torrent]

when u sprint it overrides slow walk what u yappin about

[austere current]

you sprint in CQB?

[flat dune]

should i run an altyn with a flir or exfil

[lofty wave]

wheres the no annoying ass face shield option

[flat dune]

[elder epoch]

from the rules - "Accidents happen, but intentional team-killing will get your account banned." Is this a game ban or a discord ban?

[lofty wave]

discord

although idk whyd u ask that u tking a juicer?

[flat dune]

bros bouta go tk some random homie

[lofty wave]

rip

just go rat a guy its about as much effort as getting a teamate just to kill him anyway

[distant fable]

where does one find a sicc pouch in raid

[lofty wave]

u get one from quests

and its found in raid so

[distant fable]

ah ok!

[sullen vault]

Any tips on how to get from lvl 13 too 15 quickly?

[scarlet sedge]

guys gigabyte 4080 super windforce v3 or ASUS 4080 super proart
which one doesnt catch on fire and which one is better

[echo zodiac]

@sullen vault doing missions

[median niche]

where to get vpx?

need one for Import, I always check reserve server racks but nothing

[bold kernel]

if someone has an axe on there next scav pls dm me

[red latch]

yo can anyone help me out on tasks started wipe early

[rustic belfry]

Can someone help me with the task of gunsmith part 6 I made a ak from more than 1 video and it didn’t let me turn it in to the mechanic

[unreal horizon]

lmfao get scammed loser

[woeful spruce]

Paying for shit in tarkov is why we have a huge problem with cheaters, people like you who pay the cheating fucks (yes most people who offer to sell stuff are cheaters obviously) are the reason this amazing game is fucking dying. Play the game normally and dont ruin it by giving cheaters a money incentive to cheat

[unreal horizon]

real

[woeful spruce]

Post screenshot

[sullen vault]

What are graphics going for

[nimble junco]

bro

why is the christmas tree back lmfao

[weary quartz]

Bro how rare are the packs of noodle, I found a gpu and a bitcoin and still found a pack of noodles

[orchid isle]

i found 4 before level 5

Stopped picking them up but pretty common for me

[weary quartz]

Seems like when u need them they never spawn

[tidal heron]

whys most of the hideout locked

[unreal horizon]

It's locked behind other modules

So like you need to upgrade lights and security and shit first

[tidal heron]

ok

ty

[unreal horizon]

Some things also have a trader lvl req

Np

[tidal heron]

where do u get special slots

[plucky tangle]

sicc case is better than docs case right

[unkempt gulch]

yes

[bold kernel]

do i give the folders to Therapist for Supply Plans or to Skier for King of Sabotage?

[unique wadi]

I find them all the time. I just sell em. When do you need them?

[hazy veldt]

first few quests.

[unique wadi]

Really?

Hm. Not seen em yet.

[hazy veldt]

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

[unique wadi]

I'm still on ground zero quests. Can't extract with the frigin scientists hardrive. Keep dying on the way there or to extract.

[hazy veldt]

I recommend using https://tarkovtracker.io/ or some other way, to see what items you'll need for quest.

[weary quartz]

Jaeger’s first quest

[unique wadi]

Oh. Haven't gotten Jaeger unlocked yet.

[simple salmon]

are naked runs viable

[heady canopy]

no youlll be tagged and cursed

[simple salmon]

im boutta go on my first raid and I don't know what to bring

[pale hedge]

whats a good <30k rouble gun i can snowball with in a raid

[heady canopy]

pistol

[heady canopy]

kedr or pistol

[pale hedge]

well yeah but what pistol, ive tried glocks, makarov pms, hkmp5, kedrs, etc

ive even tried toz

[heady canopy]

ok well

skill issue?

[inner flume]

You can snowball with anything, just hit the face

[heady canopy]

i use kedr up to lvl 15

for pistols as long as its not 9x18

[pale hedge]

does 9x19 work well?

[heady canopy]

no

unless you shoot face

or legs or ig since armour rework, sides

[bold kernel]

do i give the folders to Therapist for Supply Plans or to Skier for Kind of Sabotage?

[pale hedge]

yeah ive heard of the "kedr" leg meta

[inner flume]

Mosin packs enough of a punch to go trough most helmets even at low levels, if you can hit shots that's what i use

[pale hedge]

should i use that though to get enough money to start bringing real kits?

[heady canopy]

tarkov wiki, look at rewards and choose for yourself

[pliant lynx]

How do I know which suppresser work on my gun?

[unreal horizon]

link search

or presets

[heady canopy]

/ edit preset

[pale hedge]

or you can use the "compatible with available" thing

[bold kernel]

eh i mean not a huge difference i think, therapist gives a bit more xp, but she is offering me A LOT of quests

[heady canopy]

then choose wich ever

[orchid isle]

just buy a mosin

[pale hedge]

do mosins commonly make it out of a raid? ive been capitalising on insurance n stuff

well if i die and it lands into the hands of another person i mean

[unreal horizon]

doubt anyone's taking it

[pale hedge]

alright i bought one, ill do some practice rounds with it and see how i do at clicking heads

whats the best map to scav on? i usually use mine on ground zero and farm computers. it made me 100k on the one that i escaped with

[unreal horizon]

generally streets or lighthouse have the most money

[plucky tangle]

where tf is old gas station gate extract the yt videos are old and dont help

the map changed

i just lost so much shit

[unreal horizon]

across the wall

[plucky tangle]

bruh

[pale hedge]

i got sploinkied from a range i couldnt see due to fog at but is 3 headshots in about 3 minutes on high npc count good?

with a mosin i mean

[unreal horizon]

👍

[tough oyster]

is it supposed to stutter when u ads with a zoomed optic?

[unreal horizon]

it happens

worse on maps like streets but it hits fps on all maps

[weary quartz]

Bro does things found in supply drops not count as found in raid?

[unreal horizon]

they do, unless someone put something in there lol

[weary quartz]

Well I can’t turn in my damn noodles in to jaeger

[unreal horizon]

died with them in secure container?

[weary quartz]

Oh I see. Guess they thought about that

[orchid isle]

yes cus ur computa has to rerender everyting

man noodles

lmao 2 weips ago it took me a week to find a propane tank

and i was playing 7 hours a day

[sullen vault]

What gpu?

[pale hedge]

how rare is starting as a scav with a gp coin?

[sullen vault]

Bp?

[pale hedge]

the little golden coins

[sullen vault]

Pretty rare

[pale hedge]

so did i win the lottery or like

[sullen vault]

I've gotten spawned once with one.

Good barter

[unreal horizon]

i mean theyre cool ig

its equally rare as spawning with any other random ass item

[pale hedge]

ah, well is there any better use than selling one?

[wide forge]

barters

other than that i just sell it for 20-35k

[unreal horizon]

good evening cementhater

[wide forge]

hello d-2

[pale hedge]

what vendors take them?

[unreal horizon]

thera

a few vendors take them but she pays the most

[weary quartz]

Bro I should stop trying to play interchange I’ve died like 20 times in a row now

[orchid isle]

What level are you

[weary quartz]

7

[orchid isle]

Run gz

Maybe u find it on some scavs

Cus gz is tarkov on easy mode but loot is a lil worse

U can learn there

[pale hedge]

yeah i scav there and try and get my money up on factory

(unsure if thats a good setup)

[abstract harness]

Factory isn’t the best for cash but it’s nice and quick

[orchid isle]

I woudlnt Scav there since you have nothing to lose for Scav + on ur scav you can only gain

[weary quartz]

I’ve just set Jaeger’s quest off to the side, I’m focusing too much on it

[orchid isle]

Scavving streets or lh is the best for money

Lh for gear steeets for mooooneee

[pale hedge]

is streets a bit more pc requiring than gz?

[uneven sphinx]

What level does gz become locked

[weary quartz]

Going back on woods to do prapor’s quest, I’ll have to leave the therapist quest and jaeger onto the side

[vale nexus]

How do I build a christmas tree again

[pale hedge]

ive had it from the start i believe

[unreal horizon]

substantially, its the most demanding map in tarkov

and probably in gaming tbh

[pale hedge]

well i cant do that since my 8 year old setup can hardly run gz sooo

any other suggestions?

[unreal horizon]

in regards to scav maps?

[pale hedge]

well maps in general

since at some point im gonna grind enough roubles to start bring kits on pmc, and scavving is scavving

[unreal horizon]

for scav/money you can go reserve/lighthouse, for pmc i'd just go wherever you need to for tasks

[pale hedge]

well i got tasks on gz, so would going with a pistol be a bad idea on gz?

[unreal horizon]

try to bang out your tasks to get to flea market and then money making gets a lot easier

[unreal horizon]

its obviously a disadvantage compared to a full auto, but its not insurmountable

a lot of fights in this game are fist shot wins, regardless of kits

[pale hedge]

is flea market an unlock? i already have it

[unreal horizon]

you have access to the ui but you dont have full access until lvl 15

[pale hedge]

oh you mean to buy player stuff alr

[unreal horizon]

currently you can use it to buy from traders, but at 15 you can buy a wider variety from other players

[pale hedge]

mind if i ask how itd make me more money?

[unreal horizon]

a lot of items sell for more on there than to traders

since theres high demand because of barters, hideout upgrades, etc

and just the stuff people use a lot

[pale hedge]

and itd be bought by players to make that money?

[unreal horizon]

yeah exactly

check out https://tarkov-market.com/ if you're curious, it shows prices of items on flea compared to traders

[pale hedge]

after this raid i will. and final thing ill bug you about if you dont mind onbe more question

[unkempt egret]

Something like a meta weapon component or something required for gunsmith can go for tons of money since they are typicaly locked behind high trader levels. For example a 40 round magazine for an MP7 can go for upwards of 100k on a good day on the flea

[pale hedge]

is going to do tasks naked on gz a bad idea?

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[vale ginkgo]

if you just bring a pistol and cheap rig, you wont be tagged and cursed by scavs

[unreal horizon]

at the minimum you want a gun, headset, and rig

[unkempt egret]

Paca, balaclava, GGSH, bank robber tourniquet, bandage and an SKS with some ammo. Spare ammo and CAR medkit in your secure.
Optionaly mushroom/ratnik helmet cuz cheap

[pale hedge]

a pistol is easy enough to cover, but do i really need the headset and rig?

im thinking headset means earmuffs, correct me if im wrong

[unreal horizon]

headset 100%, rig i recommend since you just never know what you'll find

headsets increase hearing range and tweak eq to make it easier to hear ppl

you really want to be using one

[unkempt egret]

A headset makes a massive difference in what you can and cannot hear, which one is down to preference but GGSH is the cheapest

[pale hedge]

some earmuffs i find tend to muffle it, am i just not knowing what to listen for?

or is there earmuffs and headsets in tarkov

[unreal horizon]

no

[pale hedge]

hm, alrighty, ill start using them

[unkempt egret]

Each headset has a different profile of what sounds it increases/decreases (eg wind/rain, gunshots, footsteps) but they are universaly better than not having one.

[pale hedge]

know any cheap ones i can buy from traders to hear footsteps better?

[unreal horizon]

gssh is cheapest, the ones from skier are an upgrade but are like 28k iirc

[weary quartz]

How to do luxurious life, all the wine bottles look the same

[unkempt egret]

Made the same mistake of disregarding headsets my first wipe, decided to loot one mid raid one day and suddenly could hear someone walking on the other side of the building, which is when I decided to bring one in from then on.
In your case, GGSH is the cheapest option and I still prefer the sound profile no matter how many people call me crazy for it.

[unreal horizon]

idk what to tell you just scan around the shelves until you find it

old gssh was the shit

[pale hedge]

any way to lower lag on gz? (tarkov just gave me the hardest kick to the groin)

[pale hedge]

yeah i picked on up on a factory raid and it had me tweaking. i couldnt tell where anyone was other than what they sounded like they were walking on

[orchid isle]

Look at every single wine bottle

Im being so deadass

My wine bottle wasnt on the wiki locations so i had to spend 5 minutes looking at each individual one

Maybe I shouldve added to the wiki

[weary quartz]

Fuck this shit

[orchid isle]

Too late now

[unreal horizon]

you are the problem :)

[pale hedge]

anyone got some advice?

[orchid isle]

Uhh imma be honest if youre lagging on gz you cant run any other map but factory

gz is 2nd smallest map?

What are your specs

[unreal horizon]

send a ss of your graphics settings might be able to change something

[pale hedge]

well the thing is that after looking around for a little i get smooth fps, but sometimes it spikes up

[weary quartz]

How hard is customs, I’m changing maps cuz I’ve been getting folded on interchange

[pale hedge]

unsure how to find that, and ill send my graphics settings

[unreal horizon]

every map is hard when you dont know it

[pale hedge]

tarkov is running dreadfully slow getting back to the menu from a raid rn

[orchid isle]

open up task manager and show me cpu, gpu, ram

[weary quartz]

Cap, woods is way easier than GZ and Interchange

[orchid isle]

Not gonna have you do the more compliated one but task amanger will work

[unreal horizon]

does that change what i said?

[orchid isle]

Gz is easy to learn

[weary quartz]

No, cuz some maps are easier to learn

[orchid isle]

I learned gz lookin at a map and finished all myq uests there in 3 raids

[unreal horizon]

comparative

[pale hedge]

unsure which one is my ram

[orchid isle]

Memory is ram

[pale hedge]

\

[orchid isle]

oof

what cpu?

lemme guess ryzen 5 3600

[orchid isle]

uhh gpu?

[orchid isle]

oof gpu

ur cpu should be fine enough to run the game

[weary quartz]

Should be enough, I run GZ pretty well with a 2060

Its just I take so long to load

[orchid isle]

1060 is like really really bad 😭

[weary quartz]

Usable

[orchid isle]

like almost 2 times faster

[weary quartz]

I need to get a SSD. I have HDD rn

[orchid isle]

yea tahts why load slow

[pale hedge]

object lod quality is 2, shadows and textures are medium

anything i can change to run better?

[hazy veldt]

man has hbao and ssr on 💀

[weary quartz]

Streets is hard

[orchid isle]

turn everything to low

and off

[hazy veldt]

only thing you should have is lod 2.5

but it only matters for sniping really.

so you can turn it to 2 if it helps.

[weary quartz]

The only way I can run streets if I have dlss on to like balanced

[hazy veldt]

everything else should be off.

[pale hedge]

even this?

[hazy veldt]

yes ofc, it's just eyecandy

[orchid isle]

also turn xmp on for ur ram is haent already

2666 caps ur fps too

[pale hedge]

how do i do this?

[orchid isle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZnAb0vhcYc&ab_channel=TEAMEVGA

itll be a diff button to go into bios but basically teh same

[weary quartz]

At least he loads fast

[pale hedge]

one last thing, what does visibility change?

[unreal horizon]

think render distance

[orchid isle]

turn auto ram cleaner on, it should be working

[pale hedge]

should i turn that down?

[weary quartz]

How does 32gb of ram feel

Compared to 16gb

[orchid isle]

always been on 32 but very big difference according to my friends

[weary quartz]

I’m mean I run 16gb and I don’t see too much of a problme

[pale hedge]

ill be back after i turn on xmp

[orchid isle]

do this

[orchid isle]

how much do u get on lighthouse and streets

well u cant even run streets i assume

its a shitty map

[weary quartz]

If you count 35 fps as runable

Then yes its runable

Thats with medium settings and dlss active

[orchid isle]

ok like im spoiled and i can barely play on 60

[weary quartz]

I mean I can still shoot so I guess thats good

[pale hedge]

alright i got xmp on

[orchid isle]

how fast is it

[pale hedge]

where do i see that?

oh and i downloaded a stress tester

[orchid isle]

go back into task mananager

[pale hedge]

into the performance tab?

[orchid isle]

yerp, ram- memory

[pale hedge]

hows that?

[orchid isle]

still same speed

maybe its just capped at that

[pale hedge]

hmph

any way to remove that cap?

[orchid isle]

buy faster ram but ehhh

[pale hedge]

i dont got money for that...

[orchid isle]

yeaa....

i think youll be fine playing the game for now

if you ever wanna get more frames i would suggest dropping 50 bucks on a rx580 8gb gpu used one

@dusk cape thoughts

hes got a 1060 3gb with a 8700 and 16gb ram struggling to run gz

[orchid isle]

actulaly go try gz again witht he new settings

[pale hedge]

my pc is also like

idk

maybe 7 or so years old?

[pale hedge]

ill launch a practice one and see how it does, brb

holy crap holy crap holy crap

bro

[orchid isle]

wassup

[pale hedge]

gz started with fps smoother than butter

i can throw my camera around without lag

[orchid isle]

wwwww thats good

[pale hedge]

its perfect.

[orchid isle]

now try customs, woods, and shoreline

[pale hedge]

mind if i try out streets of tarkov first rq?

[orchid isle]

sure

i cant even run streets smoothly :(

[pale hedge]

despite entering gz perfectly smooth its taking a billion years to get back to the main menu

im just gonna tm my tarkov and relaunch it

and make some food i skipped lunch because revisiting tarkov was literally addicting

[vital trellis]

bran new dude here with 4 missions in ground zero... learning the map in practice could use tips and coop peeps

[pale hedge]

a good thing to do is practice mode yeah, but id do it on low or 0 scav count

what i did was i spammed factory with a glock 17 to learn combat better

in about a day i worked up from low scavs on easy mode to slaying tagilla every 3 or so tries, so id reccomend doing that after gaining confidence

either way, your doing the right thing right now

[vital trellis]

my biggest issue is first pc and im running it off a 50 in tv tell Monday when my monitor comes

[hot plinth]

if you are NEW and want help learning the game and maps Dm me

[vital trellis]

so im suprized it works at all

[weary quartz]

Damn you’re doing better than me. On a 20 losing streaks cuz I keep getting folded in interchange

[pale hedge]

well im also using an akms i found in a raid to kill him

[dusk cape]

pfobavly lack of vram

[pale hedge]

i managed to run gz really well a sec ago

[orchid isle]

Yea it happens

[orchid isle]

Yerp he just needs a lil better gpu

50 bucks in a used 580

[dusk cape]

if he does not have a Z series motherboard he does not have access to memory speeds faster than 2666

[orchid isle]

Damn it’s that old huh

[pale hedge]

i did say my pc is around 8 years old

[orchid isle]

Yea lol

[dusk cape]

not worth it, save for something that’s more of an upgrzde

used 2060 or 2060 super

should be less than 200$

[orchid isle]

100 bucks for used 2060 here where I live

[dusk cape]

2060 super is the ideal option

way faster than a 2060 and has 8 gigs of ram

[orchid isle]

2060 super is 90 bucks where I live????

[dusk cape]

will pair good with that cpu

[orchid isle]

Cheaper than the base lmao

[dusk cape]

weird

not sure what they are on ebay but if they’re less than 200 it’s worth it

like 140-160 is a fine price for a 2060s or 2070

[weary quartz]

I heard the 3060 is pretty good too

[orchid isle]

Used 2070 is 200 here LMAO prices r weird w market

[dusk cape]

if you’re lucky you can find a 2070super for about 150 but it’s not common

i managed to pick myself up 4 a couple weeks ago, so it’s possible

[orchid isle]

2070s is 170

[dusk cape]

really not bad at all

[orchid isle]

make sure to check fb marketplace

u can usually haggle

[dusk cape]

i woouldnt buy that tbh

[pale hedge]

guys i did it

[dusk cape]

aio cards are NOT cool if they end up breaking

[dusk cape]

running better now?

[hazy veldt]

why would they break?

[pale hedge]

i can run streets of tarkov while running and looking around without lag

[dusk cape]

why does anything break?

[orchid isle]

cus its a pump

[pale hedge]

after letting the game load of course

hows that for an 8 year old pc!!

[dusk cape]

nice. glad it got better

[orchid isle]

5700xt is also 150

[dusk cape]

not worth it

[orchid isle]

foudn one for 110

[dusk cape]

slightly more worth it

[hazy veldt]

ye but like, decent manufacturer, it's not that high of a chance.

I even know someone still running the original x62 kraken

[orchid isle]

evgabest manufactuer >:(

[hazy veldt]

evga is best

[orchid isle]

heres the ebay listings

[pale hedge]

ok maybe theres a little lag

[hazy veldt]

rip evga.

[dusk cape]

not as easy to replace a cooler on a graphics card than it is a cpu, so if anything DOES go wrong it’s not like you can spend 40$ on a cpu cooler

[hazy veldt]

at 300, I'd look at 3070, since dlss

[dusk cape]

dlss works on 20 series silly

[hazy veldt]

market still fairly flooded from cryptoboom

[pale hedge]

wheres all the money at in streets

[abstract scaffold]

could going in interchange naked just looting for gpus and tetriz be a good idea

[dusk cape]

remember, this guy has an old ass computer, probably doesn’t have 300$. to blow on a gpu, or even 200 lol

or if he does

please buy a new gpu 😭

[hazy veldt]

was thinking rtx

[orchid isle]

everywhere probably

[hazy veldt]

and at the same price, the lower power draw of the 3070 adds up.

[orchid isle]

you cant rlly run it til beefy pc so i would just run smt else

[orchid isle]

hes gonna have to get a bigger psu too t

[dusk cape]

for a 2060 super? probably not lol

[orchid isle]

noo a 3070

[hazy veldt]

you can scav it at 30fps tbh

[dusk cape]

also probably not

[orchid isle]

hes runnin like a 200w

[pale hedge]

i mean im not seeing anything yet that makes it wworth running streets over gz

[dusk cape]

what.

either way. he got his game running better, we happy

[orchid isle]

hapi hapi hapiiiii

why cant ragman buy my helmet

oh im blind i thought it said 24/25

lmao

[weary quartz]

Yall be talking about pc while I’m rocking a game laptop here sounding like a jet engine everytime I boot up a raid

[orchid isle]

That was me a long time ago lol

Cpu runs at 99c 90% of the time

Cus I’m like that

Suprised it still works

[vale nexus]

Where do I get ornaments?

[hazy veldt]

modern cpus just throttle perf when they hit max operating temps.

On a different note...

who bought all the maps

[orchid isle]

Lmao wtf

[hazy veldt]

crashed to 70k already tho

will be back to normal 40-60k range soon 😄

[pale hedge]

i couldnt find anything that makes streets more worth it than gz

[orchid isle]

gz has almost no loot

streets has the most loot and bes tloot in gam

[pale hedge]

where tho

i wandered nonstop and went into every building i could

i didnt find more than the computers in a gz building

[orchid isle]

the main part, like lexos area

[pale hedge]

which is not near the theatre?

[orchid isle]

like across it

[pale hedge]

ill look up a map n see

what loot are we talking if you dont mind me asking

[orchid isle]

valuables

and hig tier loot

gpus, bitcoin, etc

[hot plinth]

if you are NEW and want help learning the game and maps Dm me

[orchid isle]

@pale hedge

[upbeat helm]

look for people to play with anyone is welcome try to learn some maps I dont play and get tasks done

[pale hedge]

this the right place?

yeah no its ok id rather stick with a mine-less map for now ty for the suggestion tho

(not being sarcastic, im gonna consider it when im a bit more established

[orchid isle]

Yea around that area

Also off lines has alot more fps so careful

[valid anchor]

I need some help, me and a buddy fought a dude and I am not wrapping g my head around this fight. My buddy took point and dealt 400 damage to the body with 15 shots to the legs using the FN P90 with decent ammo (idk the specific) and me using m80 got a double headshot, watched the blood splatter and everything, the guy with an SR-25. He had 0 time to heal. If I could get help understanding the situation and what we possibly did wrong that would be great. I wanna get better at the game.

Buddies damage to legs: 400

My damage to head: 110

isn’t max health 440 btw?

[hazy veldt]

man was running propital or etg?

[hazy veldt]

alternatively, did either of you kill any scavs or was it the first fight of the map?

[valid anchor]

there was not even a sec between my buddy dying and me fightinbf

[valid anchor]

start of the map

match*

[hazy veldt]

probably a bug somewhere then

[valid anchor]

yeah kinda annoying how often it has happened recently tho. Maybe a desync thing as well but I am extremely confused because neither of us killed him

[marsh nova]

anyone got the portable bunkhouse key for the quest please?

[earnest citrus]

can you do eagle eye with nvgs on just not using them?

[vapid valley]

hey why do i keep getting connection lost while trying to join a ground zero run

[tidal heron]

JUST LEAVE IT

[vapid valley]

ive tried restarting the game my pc and nothing is working

[tidal heron]

i mean

[vapid valley]

but my kit D:

[tidal heron]

u can leave and keep it just dont click exit

just click the eft button then the 2 options of reconnect or the thumbs down thing

click the upside down

[vapid valley]

😮

[tidal heron]

thumb button

[vapid valley]

ty

[tidal heron]

only works on that error

[vapid valley]

ty wise sherpa

[inner flume]

Bullet that dont penetrate but dont ricochet either will leave a bloodsplash if im not mistaken, if the man had a high tier helmet he could have tanked your shots, also gotta make sure yall didnt shoot anything else at all to make the damage done number make sense

Also he could had a stim healing him the whole time

[valid anchor]

he was the first thing we walked up on, only two shots I took that raid

[valid anchor]

if you pop one before a fight does it work because there was not even a second between his engagement with me and my buddy. not trying to be fecesious or anything seriously asking if that is a possibility or if health stims are that fast

[hazy veldt]

what map was it?
Propital is 33-50k and if they know they're going to get a fight (heard you, etc), then it's a really cheap painkiller+regen combo

[valid anchor]

reserve, so people go in kinda juiced

I do appreciate the answers and all, actually learnign a good bit, thanks

[hazy veldt]

could just be weird desync with helmet deflecting but still showing you damage

[valid anchor]

maybe, it’s very annoying though. Because on my screen it was a face shot but his it coulda been a helmet doink. Looked like he had on a T4 but he coulda had that T6 attachment thingy too

[inner flume]

Without a video its pretty hard to tell, depending on the range there's also a possibility that if you shot lower face the bullet could have went high thoras into his plate? i dunno i would need to see the shot

[valid anchor]

I was I wanna say like 10 feet at most and like 6 feet at least. And yeah it does suck that I wasn’t recording, honestly insane clip

man survived like everything

[inner flume]

10 feet is very close, depending on your scope setup, if you aimed at like Jaw it could almost be thorax shot

[plucky tangle]

why can a pistol i just bought from preper jam after 5 shots

[inner flume]

Prapor for sure, not fence?

[tidal lagoon]

think thats impossible

[plucky tangle]

it was prapor

i should of recorded it

[glossy blade]

Depending on the ammo, it's not impossible.. but very unlikely still

I've had it happen on a brand new Val like 3 bullets into the mag before lmao

[inner flume]

Wait but like, what malfunction was it? misfire, failure to eject, failure to feed?

Cause failure to feed is from magazine

[glossy blade]

I'm assuming failure to feed if it was 100% from prapor

[tidal lagoon]

malfunction shouldnt start happening if its below like 93% or smt

overheat can cause malfunctions but ure not overheating a pistol after 5 shots

[inner flume]

Drum mag pistol could have failure to feed at any time

[tidal lagoon]

really

[inner flume]

I think so, drum mags are kinda fucky but i'm just throwing ideas here

[glossy blade]

The PM mag you can get from Workbench has a medium chance to fail just for using it

If they bought that or crafted it

That's on par with most of the .308 ones though, so not sure

[inner flume]

PB pistol also has a durability burn increase on it due to the silencer, maybe all together?

first time i would have seen a trader gun jam after that few shots tho

[plucky tangle]

i forgot how to tell if this was a pmc or player scav that killed me

[tidal lagoon]

its a pmc

[plucky tangle]

his ammo was so bad it didnt 1 tap me through my bulletproof beanie

[marsh nova]

anyone got rusted bloody key for quest please?

[grand path]

anyone trying to help me get shturmans key?

[signal dome]

I wanna run some low weight loot runs. Only got access to tier 4 plates. Should I be running the MMAC or the Strandhogg?

[tidal lagoon]

mmac is terrible

u mean ure using a 8-16x scope?

ok first step is gonna be to stop doing that

at most u want 8x

the 1-6x scopes are the best ones

but expensive

thats still suboptimal

if u want something that isnt too expensive you should try the schmidt and bender 1-8x or tac30

ur task is 80m kills im pretty sure

u dont need to zero

zeroing is for like 200m+

if u struggle with hitting target when they are moving u just gotta wait for them to stand still really

dont change the zeroing keep it default and u will be fine for 200m distance and just point it at his head yes

0-200 just aim at his head

around 200m the bullet starts to drop with the caliber ure using

so u might have to aim at the top of his head at 200m and then it will hit his jaws for example

but ye it depends on the caliber ure using they all have different drop and stuff

both i think

i dont fully understand that shit either

but basically when zeroed at 50m it will hit at 50m but it will also have enough power to keep travelling without dropping

therefore u can use 50 at longer ranges

i prefer woods for sniping tasks

but ye common spots will get checked cuz they are common

what u could try is to be the one who counter snipes

so dont use common spots but check for people using them

[severe beacon]

I usually just set all my sights to 100m

only fucky with .366

[errant thunder]

I don’t know if this is correct channel but is anyone here on NA(idk how switching servers works but if I can do that I’ll play on a different one too) willing to help with revision lighthouse? I’ve never played lighthouse before getting this task and I just can’t seem to get it done. Any helpful advice would be appreciated as well

[late fossil]

how does bitcoin farm work? do i like put how many gpus i want and it just starts?

does it like consume the gpus or just use them?

[errant thunder]

yes and more gpu makes it faster. doesn’t consume them

[late fossil]

if u have say 10/10, how long would it take to make 1?

[errant thunder]

it just produces bitcoin as long as you have generator on and gpu in the farm

28 hours i think for 10

[late fossil]

28 hours for 1 bitcon with 10?

[errant thunder]

yea

[orchid isle]

Should be a graph on the wiki

[plucky tangle]

guys sost is better than m855 right

it has less fragmentation change and slightly less damage

[unkempt egret]

Frag chance has been buggy for years, iirc it was flat out dissabled last patch to adres issues with the new armour system. Damage is good to have but pointless if you can't get trough armour.
With some exceptions you'll always want to have the ammo with more armour penetration, with some exceptions like igolnik (damage is just too low even if the pen is amazing) or you want to go for max flesh damage and aim for legs.

Either way, you're better off looking at the extremes instead of the middle ground.

[plucky tangle]

bruh finally get a kit from killing a pmc voiceline to a fellow player scav and he still kills me 💀

[unkempt gulch]

ofc, easy enough to get rep so if people have good gear on scavs, why not just yoink it

[plucky tangle]

i have too much morals to do that on purpose lol

too few brain cells to not do it on accident

[unkempt gulch]

Scav rep only really matters if you want 6+, and the rewards for that are not the best either.
So it's generally not a bad idea to kill scavs while scavving if their gear makes it worthwile

[atomic girder]

anyone help me do revision light house its my first wipe

[tough widget]

are the reserve marked keys worth the 2mil?

[stray scroll]

insurance doesnt work if u go mia with the stuff on ur pmc?

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[unreal horizon]

No you need to drop it before timer ends

[stray scroll]

rip

[weary quartz]

What is the use of the med station

Can I make money with it?

[unreal horizon]

Yeah

Craft with meds that have like 1 use left on them

So you're effectively doubling the value

[glossy blade]

PKBM or whatever is pretty mid, but the other two are alright

I don't remember the name of the really good one off the top of my head

[unreal horizon]

BK is under pawn, VO is barracks corner

[weary quartz]

Well I don’t have flee yet so its kinda useless for now

[native tendon]

crafted items are found in raid so u can use them for some quests

most crafts arent really worth it in the hideout tho

to make money with i mean

[subtle vessel]

is bitcoin farm worth?

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[tidal lagoon]

suboptimal site to post here nowadays

[unreal horizon]

its my own custom infographic

i dont see any site link

[fervent pebble]

any fellow canadians wanna sherpa me?

[tidal lagoon]

oh ok i didnt know this mb mb fosho

[unreal horizon]

but fr if you don't want people to datamine shit maybe just be more descriptive

[hot plinth]

if you are NEW and want help learning the game and maps Dm me

[short bay]

is ther an easy way to see which ammo goes in which magazine, which magazine in which weapon, and which weapon component can go in which weapons?

[tidal lagoon]

linked search

[short bay]

clicking on that just puts me to the flea market

[tidal lagoon]

right

and on the flea market it displays certain things linked to it, but thinking about it its not very useful unless youre lvl 15+ and have it unlocked

[short bay]

i'm level 7

[tidal lagoon]

but i mean it comes down a lot to knowledge but like all ammo of a certain caliber goes into magazines for that caliber

[short bay]

although reading it, it shows me that the trader is prapor

[tidal lagoon]

so if its 762x51mm ammo it goes into any 762x51mm magazines

[tidal lagoon]

thats not relevant

but inspecting stuff and reading should tell u a decent amount

[short bay]

right clicking that much is painful

any shortcut button for inspect?

fyi i am very new to the game

[tidal lagoon]

double click

[tidal lagoon]

dont worry i realized

[short bay]

thx

also can i rotate the damn more than 1 slot items?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[abstract scaffold]

can someone help me with some quests i have to do i just die everytime i try to do it

[tidal lagoon]

left click and hold then press R

[short bay]

thanks

[short bay]

thanks

[tidal lagoon]

in ur settings be careful that "double click item quick use" is in raid only

if its in raid and stash double clicking some items will consume them

i think it should be set to disabled or smt by default but best to double check

[short bay]

that one was easy to figure out i did it the moment i read it

[tidal lagoon]

nice

[short bay]

now i am going through the controls they are a mess

vaulting, better to be auto or click?

[tidal lagoon]

vaulting needs to be on continous

no other option for it afaik

[short bay]

i mean the "game options" auto or hotkey

[tidal lagoon]

oh ofc

hotkey is best so you have control over it

[short bay]

thanks

[tidal lagoon]

if its on auto u might randomly vault when u dont want to

[flat dune]

are helmets even worth using, i just killed someone wearing an altyn with 4.6 fmj

[tidal lagoon]

i mean if u get hosed down its not gonna do shit same with armor

but it can save u from a few shots and give u time to kill opponent

[glossy blade]

There's a drop down on the menu as well that says "Compatible with available" for components (not ammo) and if it's immediately usable it'll tell you there

[violet onyx]

where is the best map to find, spare metal parts just need it for my shooting range, I'm only lvl 2

[glossy blade]

To stay with people your own level if this is your first wipe so you can learn some more. Ground Zero. Check toolboxes, filing cabinets and technical crates

[violet onyx]

Should I scav Ground zero? I've being doing that in factory but probably seems better to do it in GZ now

[undone drum]

i would advise ligthouse

[undone drum]

absolutely worth it

[flat dune]

which do you recommend, bastion ulach exfil airframe ect

[undone drum]

ulach for the ear protection. But if you dont have the money for the ulach each raid, even the cheapest is allright.

[glossy blade]

Plus it's all Black, so a bit harder to spot than the others

[violet onyx]

is that the best for parts or just scaving? never went to lighthouse ever I think

[glossy blade]

Scavving. Good loot all around, but if you're confident in your gunplay good loot from Rogues on the buildings in Water Treatment

[undone drum]

its an easy map layout and you can choose if you want to loot, pvp or pve

[flat dune]

also what map is fine if i wear an altyn

[glossy blade]

Arguably factory, since the hearing loss won't effect you as much. But I'm just not a fan of the vision loss from the visor so I don't usually run it at all

[undone drum]

altyn impairs your hearing. Maybe factory, if you have teammates who hear for you.
situational awareness is more important then armor

[misty dragon]

bro how tf do I die, Im standing still eating my food, I hear someone coming up the escalator, I make sure to make 0 sound and wait for him to walk past me, he didnt. 15 seconds later he peeks right in front of me prefires me head eyes, he has 1.6kd 150hours 33% survival rate

what is that?

[flat dune]

hes just better

[misty dragon]

real

[undone drum]

recording?

[misty dragon]

dont have, anything that I record in eft makes my game 20fps

[undone drum]

what map?

[misty dragon]

but thats literally what happened, I made 0 sound for like 2minutes, interchange

he peeks first bullet head eyes, 1.6kd 150hours

[flat dune]

is there any changes i should make to this m4

[undone drum]

where exactly? how much hours do you have?

[flat dune]

what lvl

[misty dragon]

1.5k on this account, no idea how much on my dads account i used to have, probably like 4k plus. I was right above texho behind the elevator on 2nd floor

[misty dragon]

he was level 26

i am level 37 currently

[flat dune]

thats weird fs

was it juice kit

[misty dragon]

yeah i refuse to believe he aint cheating. it was like a mid tier kit with ass ammo

[undone drum]

without recording its very hard to help you out.
All i know is that interchange has a lot of rooms where you can hear from below or from another side of a wall.
Specially at the food corner

[flat dune]

can anyone help me with gunsmith part 23

[misty dragon]

I know but I am eating food irl afk for 2 minutes and my guy did not see me at all and 15 seconds later peeks prefires me 1 tap head eyes

[undone drum]

what help do you need?

[flat dune]

getting a mutant lol

[undone drum]

giving you a mutant you say?

[flat dune]

i can trade

if you need something

[undone drum]

its forbidden by rules of this discord

[flat dune]

oh shi

[misty dragon]

this wipe has felt soo weird, compared to previous wipes I have played ive gotten probably always 60% survival rate. I am at 32% now

[flat dune]

didnt know lol, where can i get one tho

[misty dragon]

I got mine through marked rooms

[flat dune]

which do you suggest, ive done all reserved ones and know they good but idk about others

[misty dragon]

reserve has 2 good ones, and obv customs marked works too. So that would be rb vo and rb bk

[flat dune]

havent done questline

[misty dragon]

^^

[simple night]

yeah you need to do bullshit to buy them

[flat dune]

cuz im trying to get lvl 40, but im also not trying to go stash a camera on 3 dif maps for a quest

[glossy blade]

Hardware issue? If you're confident in your setup I'd recommend Insights or Outplayed

[simple night]

thats such a simple quest xD

[austere current]

wtf..... tarkov just shut my pc off.....

[flat dune]

just dont wanna do it

[simple night]

just place the cameras and do something else on the map at the same time

[strong barn]

oh no, I loaded into raid with you and my internet disconnected! Drat!
You might as well take my mutant, it wasnt insured 😂

[undone drum]

why not?

[misty dragon]

yep hardware issue. I can barely run any map in the game above 60fpsd

[flat dune]

cuz while i rely on rng i get spears out of marked rooms 💀

[glossy blade]

Unfortunate. Shadowplay might not be as harsh as a performance impact if you haven't tried it yet. But I also understand where you're coming from

[simple night]

the odds of finding a mutant when you actually need it is zero.

when you dont need it though? 99%

[glossy blade]

Real

[undone drum]

remember to barter camera and not to buy them from flea

[flat dune]

gonna use that money on gear cuz im broke

[flat dune]

i can buy for 200 pounds i think

[misty dragon]

Yeah, Ive tried many different softwares for recordings and right now medal is probably the best but that also lags me tf out ingame. I hope soon I can get a better pc but right now im stuck in mandatory military service XXD

[simple night]

how can you be broke its so easy to make money this wipe

[undone drum]

no idea what pounds are

[simple night]

he means euro

[misty dragon]

cuz I have 30% survival rate this wipe

[flat dune]

euros mb

[flat dune]

first wipe and i run labs solo

[simple night]

ouch

[misty dragon]

yep. Feels like half my deaths are to cheaters its insane

[simple night]

well they are not.

[misty dragon]

I wouldn't be so sure. Every day I run into a dude with 20+ kd obviously cheating

[simple night]

ive played a good bit this wipe and havnt ran into one ragehacker, and maybe two or three closet cheatiers

[glossy blade]

Same boat, I'm just pretty high ranked in my service due to time in, so I have my own place and everything while I'm waiting to be medically sep'd or retired

Saved up over a year or so to make my current build

[misty dragon]

Nice. I havent been able to save up anything cuz my old place burned down lmfao

[flat dune]

wish me luck, im going to go loot weapons crates until i get mutant

[pale hedge]

any good trader kits i can buy under 50k roubles?

[glossy blade]

Good luck

[simple night]

oh all yall are in the army and all, meanwhile i just turned 16 yo and have 4 years of tarkov experience xD i understand why yalkl are having trouble

real

[tidal lagoon]

under 50k for a kit? ye no i dont think thats happening

[simple night]

no.

[pale hedge]

oh so a kit is like every slot filled

[glossy blade]

Under 50k won't be suppressed usually, but you can go CSA/Bank Robber and Prapor AKS-74U with a cheap grip and NcStar laser

[tidal lagoon]

i mean like most yea

[strong barn]

Uh, rig + headset is like 39k aleady, w/o armor or a gun so---
bankrobber and m32 from skiier lol

[simple night]

a kit is armor, helmet, gun, rig, meds, everything

[misty dragon]

nah its just a loadout with armor gun and a bag minimum prolly

[pale hedge]

fair enough, ill evaluate and ask again in a minute

[flat dune]

nah

[misty dragon]

do u see this very often

[simple night]

130k u struggling fr

[strong barn]

Yes! About 30seconds into every raid, as I get sent back to the main menu

[misty dragon]

yeh, gotta wait for bitcoin to get me coins. Ive got 12 graphics cards in there lol

[misty dragon]

Lmfao same

[flat dune]

id rather pvp than go mindlessly task.

[misty dragon]

why does it bother u, let the dude play however he wants

[glossy blade]

The non-case items filling slots between cases upsets me slightly, but to each their own

[flat dune]

i main labs and customs i def pvp

[simple night]

thats how the top of my stash looks like

[tidal lagoon]

should see my stash

[misty dragon]

tbh same

[tidal lagoon]

auto sort is only way to play stash game

[misty dragon]

So what? I don't see why you're upset

[glossy blade]

I'd say a good third of my time this wipe has been stash organization lmaooo

[flat dune]

i didnt know you couldnt trade and i also didnt kniw where to get it, idk why ur pressed

[tidal lagoon]

just press here

[pale hedge]

are there many loadouts that cost less than 75k?

[flat dune]

bros mad cuz i dont mainly task and i dont want to just go place cameras for hours

[glossy blade]

Nah, I do that early wipe, and adjust from there. It messes up my Armor>Rigs>Backpacks order

[simple night]

none unless you are gonna use a pistol with a paca and a rig only

[misty dragon]

But that is the way he wants to play so it doesn't matter what kinda opinion u have abt it

[tidal lagoon]

ure looking at probably minimum 100k for a loadout

[strong barn]

thats one less level 40 with a RD704 camping Factory office
Laying there at the safe tryna leg meta me at the door
ate a vog 25 under the cabinet
RIP

[glossy blade]

Plus cases have to stay at the top for offload QOL

[flat dune]

and you'll be there complaining im not lvl 40 3 months into wipe

[simple night]

on god

[flat dune]

lol

[pale hedge]

and what would that be?

[strong barn]

FAFO
100%

[flat dune]

leg meta with an rd is crazy

[glossy blade]

I can't even fit my case stash into one screenshot lmaooo

[strong barn]

Laying down in office with a redut tryna leg meta pscavs is nuttier than squirrel shit
jus to die to a vog smh

[flat dune]

lol thats actually funny asl

[tidal lagoon]

basically im assuming ure nearly brand new and dont have access to any higher level trader or anything, so a paca armor, a aks74u, a rig with magazines, headset, some sort of bag and optionally a helmet

[flat dune]

was he juiced

[misty dragon]

does streets lower texture mode help with fps or no?

[simple night]

im only lvl 43 and havnt played much because of school but the little cases i have is enough for now

[strong barn]

pic in screens shots one sec

[tidal lagoon]

even that might cost more than 100k

[glossy blade]

There, that's what I'm rockin with rn until I get the last 3 moonshine I need for another Thicc, then I just outright Euro for another Items

[pale hedge]

not really brand new but when it comes to buying full kits yes. i usually buy a gun and snowball

[tidal lagoon]

man thiccs so expensive now many shits like 24mil

i remember when it was like 15-16

[flat dune]

killed some guy in labs yesterday with an altyn, thor, spear, and allat

[tidal lagoon]

u buy only a gun?

[strong barn]

OH

[flat dune]

he had 2 teamates and they just ran to extract

[pale hedge]

well a mag or two, cartridges, etc

[misty dragon]

anybody that knows?

[glossy blade]

That's exclusively why I've just been crafting the moonshines lmaoo. I'm not spending all that until it's down to me paying like 8-10 mil myself

Apprently I shot him in the face when the VOG exploded and i shot and killed him 😂
str8 head eyes with a shotgun first round

[tidal lagoon]

no headset?

[flat dune]

lmfao

[tidal lagoon]

like a headset is a must have for just starting a raid

[strong barn]

OMG IT WAS A 762 MDR 🤣

[tidal lagoon]

ure kinda just setting up for failure without one

[flat dune]

wth what a bum

[glossy blade]

At least get the 18k little gssh or whatevers

[tidal lagoon]

but in general ye id recommend u run a proper full kit every raid

[flat dune]

ive gotten so much gear from labs but i cant turn it into roubles

[glossy blade]

Fence buys all

[pale hedge]

im getting into that as of last night

[dry flint]

never sell to fence

he is fucking cheap

just use the gear

[simple night]

i miss when you could sell items non fir to the flea

[strong barn]

man got plastered like a new house, all over the walls

[glossy blade]

Snitch. I'm trying to get it from his maxed trader menu

[tidal lagoon]

headsets are arguable more important than anything else, like ye u cant defend urself without a gun ofc but like everyone will hear u long before u hear them without a headset

[flat dune]

i wish i played then, ive gotten so many comtac 4s and xcels idk what to do with them

[simple night]

use them

[simple night]

the xcels and comtacs are the best headsets in the game

[glossy blade]

Shiii I'll take em

[flat dune]

its not literal

[glossy blade]

I'll come in with a trooper just to take them off your hands

[flat dune]

alr

[simple night]

specially the comtac 4's, you can hear someone overweight running from like 100-150 meters

they are stupid

[flat dune]

i dont like that you cant tell distance tho

[glossy blade]

If you use em enough you basically can

[simple night]

you can , just gotta use them for a bit and not once every blue moon

[pale hedge]

i came into a raid with one on and it made a big difference yeah

[glossy blade]

Unless you can't afford to get the same headset over and over, I'd recommend just using one or two that you really like so you can have that audio down to memory on distances

And location

[flat dune]

tac sports ♥️

[unreal horizon]

Old gssh clears

[glossy blade]

Yeah, Tac Sports or Sordins were what I used until I got maxed traders and lotta monies. Now I just xcel or comtac 4 to provide to those that kill me

Not my kit anyways, just my turn to use it

[misty dragon]

anybody wanna like hop on vc i'll stream u 1 game and if u could tell me tf am I doing wrong, I keep dying literally everywhere XD

[undone drum]

i have 2000 hours, you have what 1500 hours?

if i can help, i can do, but you decide

i can also post my stats

[misty dragon]

I have a combined 5500+ hours but I honestly suck ass

[misty dragon]

anything helps, youre doing 100x better than me this wipe

[unreal horizon]

bait used to be believable

[misty dragon]

no idea, this wipe is the only wipe Ive been dying constantly

[unreal horizon]

Cause armor doesn't fucking work lol

[glossy blade]

Not true, it just doesn't work against low tier ammo

They don't care what plates you have

SP goes crazy

[glossy blade]

That's the joke lmao

[pale hedge]

should i use glasses if i find any?

[undone drum]

don´t think so

[pale hedge]

alrighty ty

[proper pond]

not really useful, they look cool though

[pale hedge]

hows this for a kit i pulled off of a few scavs i killed?

[proper pond]

that alright, you should repair the ak though

[pale hedge]

or should i throw the glasses in there for good measure

[glossy blade]

Helmet and armor are pretty useless against almost everything, but some protection is better than none

[undone drum]

some glasses give you away from distance through smoke/dust

[proper pond]

i personally run aviators every raid because i think they look cool but if I was you i would just sell the glasses

[pale hedge]

does it have a risk of breaking in raid or does it increase the chance of malfunction as they degrade?

[undone drum]

those glasses give you away from distance through smoke/dust

[unreal horizon]

Tbf that helmet is as good as any other helmet

[proper pond]

increase the malfunction chance

[pale hedge]

ah. that i will do. ty

[unreal horizon]

You're just playing for ricochet chancr

[strong barn]

certain glasses have this bugged broken ass black reflection that STANDS OUT in fog or rain
look up which ones DO NOT have this, and youll be good. They make rain easiest to deal with; it streams down your screen instead of SPATTERS on it
But thats nit picking stuff tbh

[proper pond]

ive kind of accepted that lol, the drip is worth the death

[glossy blade]

Until it comes to AI's yeah lmao

[undone drum]

fair

[glossy blade]

PMC's don't care

[unreal horizon]

what does that even mean

[glossy blade]

My T3's and T4's have given me many a concussion from scavs, rogues and raiders

So they have use sometimes

But not very often

[unreal horizon]

True but if you're getting hit by rogues/raiders it's more of a positioning issue

[proper pond]

helmets generally dont help lol, when you get high levels they havea chance but you will get 1 shotted more often than not

[glossy blade]

Yeah I'm not disagreeing lmao. Just sayin if you have better, use it instead

[tidal lagoon]

helmets r meta

[proper pond]

john bs with a beanie is meta

[glossy blade]

John bs, half ghost and boss cap

[proper pond]

hell yeah

[glossy blade]

I always get it back too lmao. Perma drip

Is looping US into my 5.45 mags to lower recoil worth it?

[austere hound]

If you don't have BT/BP/bs, sure.

[vapid tree]

those increase recoil no?

I mean looping US into mags full of BP to counter that nasty +7 recoil

[austere hound]

Yes, but they have a ton more armor penetration. You should only really be using US if all you can get/have is PS

[tidal lagoon]

there is no recoil

545 US when u have better pen ammo is a throw

that caliber especially has little recoil

[vapid tree]

hm, ok

[austere current]

fcking hell, do people really enjoy to sit 50min for one kill? damn

[unreal horizon]

yes its my favorite

[austere current]

crazy

trying to do overpopulation but no fcking scavs at all

[inner flume]

sitting for 50 minutes and killing a man>dying 3 times in 40 minutes because you made sound

[austere current]

ok, so rats(camper) is best solution kekw

[inner flume]

hey im more memeing than anything

[red latch]

can anyone help me get 2 flashdrives pls

[pale hedge]

whats the best bang for your buck backpack that you can get from ragman

[inner flume]

berkut is a decent space for cheap at low level

[pale hedge]

how much roubles?

[inner flume]

like 25k

if thats too pricy for you, just go scav and use whatever i guess, there's no backpack even worth taking out that is cheaper than that

[pale hedge]

yeah i can afford that, i just gotta burn through my looted backpacks n stuff

i have like 15 backpacks

[hot plinth]

if you are NEW and want help learning the game and maps Dm me

[austere current]

if you die with GPU found in raid, can you still turn them in for quest?

[vapid tree]

no

quest items need to be FiR

[red latch]

anyone tryna just duo woods

[austere current]

fck

best slug ammo for scav farming?

[pale hedge]

how do i make my game not lag at all as opposed to when im fighting someone

[austere current]

new PC

[pale hedge]

is that just a half cocked answer or is there seriously no other way

[mint light]

ram

[austere current]

CPU/RAM/GPU

[pale hedge]

ill ask around at a later time then for more opinions, ty

[mellow belfry]

in the edit preset is there a way to tell if a part is sold by traders or not?

like at ur current trader lvl

[hot plinth]

if you are NEW and want help learning the game and maps Dm me

[patent cedar]

Man, first game, solo, got 5 kills and couldn't find an extraction point lol

[dusk steppe]

I started like a couple weeks ago and the same happened to me for like 2 raids in a row lol

[patent cedar]

I guess I need a map opened on another screen to help with this game.

[dusk steppe]

it does help

eventually you'll get used to maps though

takes a bit

[undone drum]

you can also do practice raids, learning maps, without risking gear

[patent cedar]

oh nice

[unkempt egret]

Scav runs on maps you intend to learn also help, while the extracts are different you'll start learning landmarks and find your way around after a while

[iron pasture]

what injectors are good?

[austere current]

does run through count if you take car extract?

[undone drum]

Yes

[austere current]

nice ty

[unkempt pewter]

are there a lot of ground zero tasks ? Dont want to learn it

[iron pasture]

thanks

[astral glen]

There is the initial 4, then you are given 1 more by Prapor later on, that's it

[iron pasture]

is obl 2 obdolbos 2?

[bold kernel]

anyone wanna duo some Streets? not experienced with the map, got some quests there etc

[pale hedge]

all of my first tasks were gz

[unkempt gulch]

Should be around 4 or 5?
Extract with car, kill x amount, go to key room, find machinegun and grenadelauncher and then the wine bottle.

[lusty chasm]

can someone help me with the wine bottle mission i keep getting bodied before i even get there

[austere current]

fcking tarkov man, another error, high packet loss......

are they going to update all these shit tonight?

[unreal horizon]

lol

[austere current]

this weekend is a fcking mess with tarkov

[unkempt gulch]

Try to chill until theres less than 10 min remaining, then go for it.

[lusty chasm]

oh bet bet aight imma try that

[inner sinew]

Lil late but I’m down to run some I have some tasks to do

[patent cedar]

This game is like a horror genre with the claymores placed around at the beginning 😄

Just got my head blown off in a office bathroom

[lusty chasm]

that actually worked thank you

[ripe viper]

Is using SOST 556 ammo really trolling or is it managable? For like money runs on resort or stuff like that... Not geared like going in with an osprey but just more of a casual run i guess

I know its only 33 pen but i really dont have access to nothing better

If i load it up in a decent m4 and spray at head, it can pen tier 4 with a brush of luck, so overall, is it alright?

Ive been farming rogues for a while now and i don't get any good ammo from them. Starting to think they dont carry anything above 30 ish pen...

[unreal horizon]

its fine

[lofty wave]

its fine
