The last one being probably the worst for this build but i can testify that the recoil does not go anywhere. people have been saying "this gun is a lazer" etc, but i can say, this one, reallyyyy is...

And he is so talented too! He can do many things other than shoot 100 rounds in a beam. he can blow scheisse up, he can see through bushes, and is silent as the night on a heavy storm! Its a very versatile gun.

pick your gun, then you can easily see which parts/combos are the best for what you're trying to do
trying to get the lowest recoil possible? sort by recoil under parts or "combos"

#

trying to get the lowest ergo? sort by "evoergo"

#

(evoergo is ergo that also accounts for weight because weight plays a big factor in the feel of a gun as well)

big big question about traders and restock, what does this exactly mean:

Just extracted from Ground Zero. Had 1+30+20+20+20+20 mags for my ADAR and still at the end had to DELTA with no ammo and healing items sustaining me for "The Great Escape". How do you know how many rpounds/clips to bring to a game? I would have stayed and murdered some mere if not ammo famine...

Stack ammo in your secure container the more the better because how many scavs you encounter is RNG imo

Item management is pretty rough, just a tip from me try to get level 2 peacekeeper as fast as you can, once you have the flea market it's a pretty cheap barter for a 6 slot secure container

Flea market is such a help really, pretty much anything you want on there spare for a few specific items that are banned, you can also buy all the hideout upgrade items you need there :p

And most stuff sells for way more than traders buy it for

In his defence woods is rough when 90% of it is grass, takes a while to get the hang of it

Especially with a map open

your cpu is bottlenecking

yea that happens only on streets, like only 60% gpu usage wtf

Streets is very cpu intensive and the GPU is way too much of a powerhouse for that CPU

even tho it's not being utilised fully i'm 100% certain that's the issue

sure could be, all other maps work just perfect and smooth

Generaly speaking most people you'll run into as a scav will be scavs (90% or so), generaly it's better not to pull the trigger as a scav at all unless you're 100% certain. Scavs will generaly voice line and not be shooting at stuff unless a PMC or traitor scav is nearby while PMC's tend to be silent as to not give away their position with a shoot on sight policy.

In your place I'd start off scaving on factory, loot is generaly bad but most pmc's fight die and extract from the map in the first five minutes and will have cleared out by the time you get in. The map is small enough to get the hang of it pretty fast.
I'd bookmark mapgenie and the wiki, it'd probably help a lot

Get a fast scav kit for PMC use and some random scraps to sell, you can be in and out having looted the entire map in five or so minutes

buoyant zenith

what does pmc mean

When playing PMC everythign is your enemy other than your squadmates, as a scav only PMC's and teamkilling scav players are your enemy so you can loot mostly in peace.

Alright boys, appreciate all the noobie help. I've been a scav, ive been a PMC, I don't think the game is for me. It will join the hundreds of games in my steam library i neglect. Here's to hoping for the best patches for you all.

Thanks again.

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Weapon_mastery
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page mastery for a direct link or !wiki search mastery for a list of all hits.

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

In Escape from Tarkov, the handling of weapons can be trained through active use. In short, the more you use a certain weapon, the more skilled you become with it.
Depending on the weapon, reaching mastery level 2 or level 3 will provide a new reload animation. Level 3 grants the ability to reload while aiming down sights for all weapons in that mastery category.
Weapons that are based on the same platform share a mastery. 1 EXP is gained for every hit on entities in an online raid. For cartridges that fire multiple projectiles, each projectile hit gives EXP.

It's pretty high right now anyways, p sure I sold a Bitcoin yesterday for 850k

yeah a couple days ago it was down to 790k

715k was the lowest I've seen the past few days

It's back up now tho

sand cloak

so yeah currently is a pretty good time to sell unless it decides to rise

toxic oak

Honestly I sell them all instantly anyways unless I have a bigger amount of them because the 100-200k difference isn't even half of what you need for a decent kit so it doesn't matter much

for setup you have to wear a scav west and a ushanka and kill 25 pmcs on customs with a mp shotgun

There's silent caliber but it's any map

oh cause everytime i went to factory to do a quest and most of the time when i would kill someone they got a shotgun so i was curious if it was a quest

Nah it's just close quarters combat that's why

Easier to use shotguns

Nope, customs only that's why it's such a pain for most

Ah mb, I don’t ever read the thing for setup, I hate doing it and would much rather be any map

the biggest pain with setup for me is the fact you cant wear a helmet

# tough widget when does it become dark? 22:00?

Past 22:00 is considered night-time in Tarkov, this matters mainly for quests.
"Becoming dark" is different thing, sometimes by 22:00 it is dark and NVGs help, other times the moon stays out for a while making it very easy to see without NVGs

#

Some night-time raids I can see perfectly fine because the moon illuminates everything

#

Others it's pitch-black and raining and NVGs are very useful
