[pallid ruin]

do you have at least 32gb of ram?

24gb minimum - anything less will experience stutters and you basicaly cant fix it

zooming in with a scope that has a multiplier essentially forces your game to render the image twice - one for the zoom inside of the scope and once for outside of the scope - better specs will make it less annoying as you will still keep a decent amount of fps (but it will go down after zooming in whether you like it or not) - a way to go around it is to run a red dot / holo - but you cant snipe in this case scenario

[elfin elm]

you can craft a clin

lavatory 2

[granite seal]

Does it work if the quest tells me I have to find it in raid ?

[elfin elm]

crafts always produce found in raid status items

that's why lot of people try to rush the med station early lvls, to craft salewas

[granite seal]

Ok thanks

You're actually a G dude I have been looking for one for so long

[elfin elm]

👍

what lvl are you?

[fresh ether]

20, 6m now. Sorry Wont be responding

[elfin elm]

you busy?

[scenic hinge]

weapon cases, thicc cases, ammo boxes, lucky scav junk box

weapon cases and lucky scav junk will take a toll on your money but its worth it

[fresh ether]

3 30am finna sleep but I’ll stay for a few mins

[elfin elm]

slim field med bag is one I get

I wait till I get the barters for weapons cases, item cases, and thicc cases

[fresh ether]

Yeah they look way cheaper

[elfin elm]

scav box you should always rush

[fresh ether]

Yea

[scenic hinge]

oh yea also remove the grip and mag from your guns to make it use less space

[elfin elm]

LBCR rigs are also the most space efficient rig you can buy off flea

[scenic hinge]

and u can put it on the gun wall in your hideout

[elfin elm]

so good for general storage before item cases

[scenic hinge]

much smaller and more convenient

[fresh ether]

Yeah gotta do all that tmr

[elfin elm]

and fold your stocks

[scenic hinge]

[lusty raptor]

am I crazy or is this suspect? KD aside, how is someone lvl 43 at 250 hours???

i have like 2k hours and im lvl 38

[tawny mesa]

not that hard if you prioritize quests

[elfin elm]

that's not the worst I've seen

[tawny mesa]

you dont have 2k hours just this wipe do you?

[lusty raptor]

sorry, these are my stats,

i prioritize quests but dont survive enough to complete them

i can't even get near the resort

[tawny mesa]

well currently resort is a bit busy

[west sluice]

Which part of oli can spawn gas analyzers?

[spice gate]

Hey how does the matching work in pve? I’ve been told if your on matching then to back out and try again, is this true?

[orchid isle]

fastest kappa is around 300 hours by cheesing all quests sooo

5 man cheesign all quests

[tawny mesa]

doesnt show that he has kappa though

[orchid isle]

kappa is a level req too

by the time u hit the level youd have kappa

[pallid ruin]

Hey, I got a question - as much as im not a beginner this question relates to beginners - what ranges does the shooting range have at max lvl? the question relates to beginners - if the guy is sat at 100m, and i aim at 100m (zeroed at 100m with m80 with the t-5000 sniper rifle) and lets say I hit him - did I hit him at the beginning of the parabolla of the bullet going up or at the end - question is if I would hit him if he was at around 300m if i was aiming at the same spot or not - question is at the parabolla quesiton (guy is at 100m, my weapon is zeroed at 100m and i shoot - is my weapon gonna go 100m and up with the parabolla and then go down or is 100m the peak of the parabolla (i am drunk and i am in an arguemnt with my mate, i'd like an opinion of an amereican person or someone who has experience with weapons irl)

[pallid ruin]

tldr;
we're both i different irl armies, but he got taught that the distance we are zeroed at is the beginning of the parabolla (he uses holo sights) and I got taught that the distance we are zeroed at is the end of the parabolla (we use iron sights) which one is right and why? does anyone know the answer to that question? lmao

[abstract harness]

Ok so zeroing in Tarkov is kinda scuffed either way
Zeros are based on the default round for the caliber, but different rounds in the same caliber have different bullet velocities soooo
just use something with high bullet velocity and get it roughly right, I don’t know too much about actually zeroing optics in this game I just know it’s kinda broken

[orchid isle]

that sounds like a question for @solemn raptor

[pallid ruin]

[solemn raptor]

what's up

[pallid ruin]

yeah if someone could reply to this I'd appreciate it lol

[orchid isle]

Idk he had a sniping question

[solemn raptor]

let me read through this :)

alright I think I understand what you're asking. Give me a sec here to type it out

[pallid ruin]

sure ty

[solemn raptor]

ouff, bot didn't enjoy that haha

just DM it

[pallid ruin]

exactly

[eternal oak]

Anybody looking for pve buddies? Im willing to be down for anything at all, NA preferably but dont really matter. Just want pve gaming buddies, add me up if your interested and when i get on pc we tarkov it up!!

[lusty raptor]

how do I hear better in this game? i hear almost nothing

[eternal oak]

The higher money u soend in real life on a gaming headset will always help, more expensive but the more u soend the better quality. As far as in game goes, just have to test wat works best for ur in real life headphones

[ruby bough]

I need me a tarkov gigachad for the last three maps on The Guide, streets, ground zero and lighthouse, I'm the Timmy

[lusty raptor]

i want this AHF1 stimulant reeeeeee

if i crank the volume up to be ablet o actually hear, I go def when the fight starts

[sinful willow]

why i have no timers at scavs?

[ocean wolf]

event

[pallid ruin]

thanks for the ping for him we're still having a convo with +1 more person to understand how the actual bullet drop works lmao

[orchid isle]

[queen ether]

Are my color settings fucked up? There's not a chance in hell that I see this guy until me and my friend looked at this for a good 5 minutes to see him on the right hand peek in bishop

[sullen silo]

can you wear armor in the Setup quest for skier or just the scav vest

[dire folio]

You can wear armor

Just have to wear scav vest and ushanka with it

[fringe gale]

where to bsg post all these "event" infos?

[pure compass]

i just died to a fucking cheater bro

2k hrs and eod i hope this fuckers acc gets banned

[lusty raptor]

that's pretty dark

[queen ether]

my color settings are?

[orchid isle]

ngl i didnt see him but desync

[queen ether]

he's sitting on the right hand peek in bishop

but holy god it's hard to see that

[unreal horizon]

Flashlight or die ig

[upbeat pelican]

is this the new game edition that is out?

[unreal horizon]

yeah

Nikita simp edition

[slate pendant]

The Unheard Edition

[lusty raptor]

cool there are landmines in the rocks at lighthouse also

how TF do i ever get close to rogues when i spawn up there

[orchid isle]

going aroudn the landmines

[unreal horizon]

dont touch red 🤯

[lusty raptor]

I was on the long slender rock to the left of the top most small shaped red in the top left of those 3

but it blew up anyway

at least i'll probably get my gear back...

try #47

going at night this time

oh wait nvm im going during the day but brought nightvision, gg

[elfin elm]

How do you know they're cheating if they have lots of hours and have had their account for a while?

[unreal horizon]

depends on the situation but sometimes its really obvious

[elfin elm]

Hence the question yeah, just playing devil's advocate

[unreal horizon]

like i've had a 3k hour player literally voip my name lol

[elfin elm]

Yeah that one's a giveaway

[lusty raptor]

I'll never be able to finish corporate secrets

[queen ether]

sounds like you're hearing things

[elfin elm]

Unless you're a streamer

[elfin elm]

Bear?

Or usec

[zenith island]

do you lose scav rep for killing goons

[wet axle]

afaik they are "rogues' and not scavs so you should be good

Wiki says you do not lose scav rep

[lusty raptor]

Bear. I just simply can't even get close to that area either because of them or players been clearing the first tower and sitting in the shipping containers

[wet axle]

enter thru front using bridge path

[zenith island]

ok thanks

[wet axle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdxcIyLX_xk&t=344s

moron proof video

[orchid isle]

That’s cap or I have the worst luck ever cus I’m too good and I need a nerf

[lusty raptor]

i love it thanks. ghetto kit and from the front

[lusty raptor]

Well i got 2 rogues but died to the 3rd

lasering me through the tiny hole in the red container next to blue barrel

AI a little too good in this game

[elfin elm]

I'd also say get a usec escort who knows the route to help

If it keeps being an issue anyways

Just offer the free loot and I bet plenty of people would be willing to help

[dire folio]

This is before they changed their ai back to normal

Its whem theyd just run at you and die

Probablt

[stoic vigil]

im in a raid with invincible scavs what the fuck bro someone help

[astral glen]

Hide and restart your game if you experience this again (I assume you’re on streets)

[cinder field]

Dafuq?

[outer vector]

why are moonshines so expensive? is their only purpose the thicc barter?

[cinder field]

You just answerd your question lol

[unreal horizon]

• scav case

[bold kernel]

Barter for quad-nods as well.

[cinder field]

@astral glen any idea what this is and how i can remove it? Also when i kill PMCs as a scav in PvE the keep in their current action and wont die. They count as kill, they wont attack but i cant loot them

[bold kernel]

Meta.

[orchid isle]

its tasty

[orchid isle]

hacker!

jk

[elfin elm]

Something royally got messed up

Never had that before

[outer vector]

Your cpu is on fire right now

[white swift]

friend bouhgt unheard and its only working on his pvp and not on his pve any help ?

[supple eagle]

im so confused so i got told to change my headet in game to get better audio, my music and home screen stuff is good but in match walking/shooting sounds like it has 0 bass or quality

[unreal horizon]

turn up bass in eq if you really care

most ppl just live with it

[elfin elm]

All headsets cut ambient audio, EQ the sound, and make footsteps and distant gunfire a lil better to hear

[bold kernel]

The headset you wear in-game won't affect your menu audio. 💀

[elfin elm]

But the EQ of some headsets aren't great for some people

[bold kernel]

It will affect your in-raid audio, though.

[supple eagle]

i used it for example

but ive learnt now

[bold kernel]

👍

[stoic vigil]

nope, it was gz and every scav/pmc/boss I killed stood still and was unlootable, I did get the kills at the end tho

[elfin elm]

Again, outdated

[bold kernel]

Fr?

[elfin elm]

The order is right, the distances are not

[bold kernel]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[elfin elm]

14.5 changed headset distances n shit

The difference between the best and worst headset is less than 20 meters

Less than 10 even I think

[bold kernel]

Oh, yeahh.

I forgot about that.

[elfin elm]

Yeah, so run comtac 4s if you gotta feel like you have an edge

And otherwise run what you like

Just always actually run something

[oak lily]

What is this item and what does it do?

[slate pendant]

That is a device that allows the player to access the Lighthouse Island along with access to the in raid trader: "Lightkeeper"

[thorny steeple]

I'm gonna do the "Hustle" task where I kill bosses in Shoreline, but what's the best way for me to do so as a lot of Gigachad players will be going there, too?

[median niche]

where do u guys go for pvp? I wanna get back for some fights to throw away my stuff but customs on auto EU has been dead for like days now... anyone has some tried maps/locations or servers maybe? or does it just come down to time of day?

[thorny steeple]

Factory

Quickest way to get PVP

[hushed field]

labs

[median niche]

yea in the end I did do that but thats not too interesting

is labs popping?

thought it would be dead since ppl want bosses

[thorny steeple]

You can also go Reserve bunker, Dorms in customs, and Resort in Shoreline

[median niche]

dorms and resort is dead for me like every raid, I rush there and nothing

maybe I just play late idk

[thorny steeple]

I think dorms is dead because it's late wipe and lots of people have already completed their dorms quests. I only see people go there for marked room now

But resort, trust me, there's lots of pvp there now since bosses have a 100% of spawning there

[median niche]

hmm I will try some shorelines then

got quests to do anyway so win-win if dead raid

ty

[orchid isle]

thats outdated :(

[bold kernel]

I was told.

[orchid isle]

kill the other players

im jk pop a sj6 and trimadol with a gun that can kill bosses

inf stam run into resort and kill as many as u can then die

cheapo headset + gun with good ammo + like a t4 uley works

kinda what im doing rn but im just here for pvp

[leaden wigeon]

is SP7 or SP8 better?

[elfin elm]

Whichever has more damage if you're looking at 9x18 makarov

[thorny steeple]

Got it

I will say, Shoreline is now the best place to do scav runs because you'll find a lot of dead Gigachads there

[bold kernel]

Anyone know why my task ain’t completing because I did a raid with my pmc and I found Emercom station ??

[elfin elm]

did you get close enough to get the pop up?

[thorny steeple]

Did you go inside of the Emercon station?

[elfin elm]

it gives a pop up in the bottle right hand corner when you're close enough

[simple iron]

I got a question about scav's and playing as scav. While playing as scav, we are not supposed to shoot/kill other scav's and the AI scav's won't shoot/kill us? Unless we shoot first?

[lusty raptor]

correct. it's not worth it. you lose I think 0.1 rep per scav killed that's "friendly", and you gain 0.01 rep for extracting. So every scav that did you no harm is 10 normal surviving raids as scav you need to do to rebuild

i wish people did more co-op extracts I think it says you get 0.7 rep? that's 70 raids worth

[simple iron]

Okay, that's what I thought but just wanted to make sure.

I assume scav's don't like when you get to close them, I had one start yelling and ended up killing him. Lol

[frosty musk]

AI scavs shouldn't attack you at all if you are neutral

Might have been like a boss guard or something

[dry flint]

does an RPD still jam against kolontay?

[simple iron]

That's based on your stance with the fence, right?

[frosty musk]

Yeah bosses and guards will attack you if you are below 6

Not always on sight, they may wait a second or so

AI interactions are really inconsistent when playing as a scav IMO

[simple iron]

Standing: 6 ? My Standing with fence is 0.32

[frosty musk]

Yep

6

Car extracts give you a lot of rep but they decrease each time you use them

[simple iron]

Okay, so they will attack me because my current standing is to low

[frosty musk]

The boss guards and such yes

[simple iron]

Gotcha

[frosty musk]

Normal scavs shouldn't attack you until either -6 or just far enough below 0

Don't exactly remember

[thick spade]

though the bosses for the shoreline event wont shoot you on shoreline

[simple iron]

Appreciate answering questions I should already know by now 😊

[oak lily]

I just got this sig mcx spear from killing someone, should i keep it or sell it?

[wet axle]

are you high enough level to get bullets for it?

[oak lily]

no

[wet axle]

sell

[elfin elm]

sell

[oak lily]

im level 23

and a bear

[frosty musk]

Maybe keep the scope

You could use the scope elsewhere

[elfin elm]

sell the pistol grip, foregrip, mag, suppressor, and scope seperately though

more money that way

[oak lily]

ok

thanks

[elfin elm]

at least on flea

[frosty musk]

Well I was suggesting he keep the scope and foregrip

[elfin elm]

that wouldn't be a terrible idea

they are good

[oak lily]

with the ring scope mount?

[frosty musk]

Maybe even the pistol grip, but with no fir flea and min maxing not being necessary especially when lower level

[frosty musk]

Yes

[wet axle]

sell the scope, tango is a mid scope, more worth in roubles then in use

[frosty musk]

If you keep anything keep the scope, variable scopes are always nice to have

[oak lily]

ok

[frosty musk]

Oh didn't think it was mid

How much does it cost

[oak lily]

let me check

130000 rn

[frosty musk]

And how much does like the razor and vudu cost

[oak lily]

259000 razor

[frosty musk]

hot damn

[oak lily]

254000 vudu

[frosty musk]

Personally I'd keep that scope since it's half the price, but idk your call

[oak lily]

alr

[frosty musk]

I don't think a bit less eye relief justifies it

[oak lily]

and the foregrip?

[frosty musk]

Keep or sell, whatever. It's good but far from necessary, if you'd rather have the money over a minimal recoil buff that's fine

Especially with the recoil rework this wipe and all, I've been out of the tarkov loop but I don't think these attachments are as necessary as they once were

[oak lily]

alr

also

what is best gun for the boss's on shoreline rn?

[bold kernel]

One that has good ammo.

[oak lily]

rn i have svd with lps

[bold kernel]

That can work.

[frosty musk]

Pistol works if you can hit headshots lol

[bold kernel]

Some bosses have class 5 natively, so be careful.

[bold kernel]

Real, tbh. Lmao.

[frosty musk]

Few months ago I one tapped a level 60 with the lapua bolt action, and I was a scav

I had the Beretta from a rogue

And it was at least 50m out

[cunning plume]

can someone help me grind tasks and help me reach level 15?

[wet axle]

sure in like 15

[untold belfry]

Anyone have any good sniper spots on shoreline overlooking resort? just tryna get hustle done

[wet axle]

first thing you should do is go to graphics and disable noise in ur settings, and decrease head bobbing to minimum aswell in the game tab.

[wet axle]

not gonna get it done sniping...

[untold belfry]

good to know

[oak lily]

what does Binaural audio do and should i use it?

[wet axle]

makes audio differnet, use it.

[oak lily]

thanks

[cunning plume]

Ok just message me when you are available

[wet axle]

👍

[elfin elm]

yeah some are in teh buildings I think

[untold belfry]

oh yeah ik ive already killed 4 of them

[fresh belfry]

what is the best AR buiild with LL1 traders and no flea?

[wet axle]

aks74ub

[fresh belfry]

build... including attachments

[fresh belfry]

^

[wet axle]

from prapor with a pilgrim dust cover from skier, and a red dot of your choosing from the various traders available, Likely one of the red dots from peacekeeper.

you can also attach a b-11 from ....skier? and then a foregrip from skier aswell i believe.

[elder lagoon]

What button should I use for shoulder swap?

[wet axle]

the b-11 path is a bit extreme

[wet axle]

mouse button.

[wet axle]

https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/723055590913605653

[fresh belfry]

whats the difference between the aks74u and un?

[elder lagoon]

Good idea thanks

[wet axle]

hidden stats and I believe the side rail, (dovetail for Soviet sights)

[fresh belfry]

i use tilde, but i also have it on my elgato foot pedal, as well as fix malfunction and check exfil

[fresh belfry]

what are the hidden stats?

[wet axle]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1al8rSJJ8ytXNxX0pwZqSn-UC91612UvXvxnYoYgBv0Q/edit#gid=0

[frosty musk]

Wait I recently got a steering wheel and pedals, I should see if I can map the pedal to a key and use the pedals for some more niche actions

[wet axle]

Dispersion is a measure of potential horizontal deviation from the recoil angle. This number represents the maximum dispersion from the recoil angle on any given shot

The higher this number is, the more disorderly your recoil pattern becomes. It is also variable within the limits of the maximum value.

Convergence WAS how quickly the gun returns towards center. This may have gone away with .14

[random shard]

got any tips on not getting killed in the first minute of a raid on a big map lol

this was shoreline

[orchid isle]

dont play shoreline rn

very busy

and the more you play the more you know where ppl spawn

[random shard]

why is it busy, how do you determine it's busy, and when is it not busy?

I keep getting dailies to survive on it

[mint light]

ur lvl 10. stay on maps where ur tasks are and take off that silly helmet

[orchid isle]

big event right now

??Event

[red thistle]

There are increased Flea market slots & there are no FIR restrictions on the flea market. A new quest is available from Jaeger to kill all the bosses which are a 100% spawn on Shoreline ( Quest : Hustle)

[random shard]

ah, I didn't know, thanks

no wonder I got killed by a boss the other day there

that must be why all the dailies as well

[orchid isle]

yerpp

[wet axle]

put on a headset and perhaps you might hear something, an in game headset that is.

[random shard]

this definitely was not a situation where a headset would have helped I think, I spawned and started sprinting in a direction and saw another guy sprinting about the same way across a pond

[orchid isle]

but u always want a headset btw

[random shard]

alright, thanks

[vernal jewel]

headset> helmet

[random shard]

yeah the helmet didn't help there either clearly, at this level should I even care about helmets much?

[vernal jewel]

keep playing the maps until you know the spawns watch some videos or look up maps too

[vernal jewel]

i usually run t4 helmets at the lowest

just gotta focus your tasks

[wet axle]

the helmet doesn't help at fucking all. its detrimental actually because it provides near 0 protection and completely fucks your hearing.

[random shard]

I'll be sure to sell those from now on lol, the temptation to rat and use whatever I find sometimes gets the better of me

[wet axle]

always use headset

no helmet is gud enuf for no headset

[bold kernel]

Altyn, though. 😔

[wet axle]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/y8-EUmL4bfI

💀

[bold kernel]

Tbf, I would only use those kinds of helmets on Factory and Labs.

[wet axle]

watch the video

[bold kernel]

I'm not usually getting shot in the neck.

That's the same idea as saying to not wear armor because you can just get shot in the armpits.

[random shard]

lol 9x19 killed him? crazy

[wet axle]

more like the cost,heariing loss,sight loss from the altyn make it not worth it since THAT can happen.

[bold kernel]

It can.

It's very unlikely.

[wet axle]

🤷‍♀️ we disagree

[bold kernel]

That's chill.

[tribal dock]

I love the Altyn/Rys-T but man... being able to HEAR shit, like people reloading, pulling a grenade out, meding and stuff... you can exploit mistakes that people make and anticipate and/or prepare against counteractions using sound.

if you can't hear, many times you're fucked.

That video is funny lol

[wet axle]

yo if ur a beginner rn

just spam scav shoreline at resort....

[random shard]

haha

[wet axle]

didn't realize they reduced the scav cd, i have -49 karma and got like a 5 min cooldown

im not even joking this is so free.

[random shard]

ahhhh I was wondering why it's 5 minutes

[wet axle]

0 resistance

well one dumbass dude shot me then got beamed by my bodyguards

[tribal dock]

THAT'S A BIG BOY

god damn

he THICC

[wet axle]

just got bigger

slight loot.

[fresh ether]

matchmaking is so slow and might switch servers what ping is playable for you guys?

Im used to 9ms

on oce

[wet axle]

are u on pve?

[fresh ether]

nah online

it takes 5 - 10 mins

i dont wanna wait 10 minutes a raid thats like less than 6 raids and hour

way less

[wet axle]

are u loading?

or is it "matching"

[fresh ether]

just waited 10 minutes in matching until it found a game

not loading

[wet axle]

im no expert on oce so i'd rather not comment.

[fresh ether]

aight

[fresh ether]

also is that concordia room jump still doable/allowed to do it?

into that locked room

[wet axle]

are u allowed to do it
yes
doable
yes

but the key is probably like 20k rn soo...

[fresh ether]

whats the key called lol

[wet axle]

concordia 63? 34?.......

[echo plume]

anyone down to run some raids with a first wipe n00b

[native raft]

would it be wise to quest while all chads focus on shoreline?

[west sluice]

Which guns require minimal modding to be decent?

[pure compass]

bro is already level 38

i fucking love dying to cheaters bsg

[nocturne hound]

hey people. Im lvl one just got the game and am lookin for smw to help me out

[wicked oriole]

can someone tell me why this key wont work on the cabin door on customs?

[astral glen]

I can't really see which cabin you're trying to open

This is what that key opens though

[wicked oriole]

oh weird

i was at the 2 cabins next to the electrical tower, thats the image the tarkov wiki shows 💀

[rugged mauve]

lmk if you want to run some lvl 35

[tribal dock]

That's objectively wrong.

That's for the Trailer Park key.

They key you're thinking of is for the portable bunkhouse hey.

[elfin elm]

until they renamed the portable bunk house

[mint light]

@hexed kernel sorry bro 😔

[bold kernel]

how do i get my post fx like this so i can see through black window

[edgy rain]

how long is the event active

[raven quarry]

turn up brightness and gamma in nvidea control panel

[tawny mesa]

only me who gets server connection lost 90% of the time?

[grim estuary]

a lot of people have that (if you have bought the unheard edition you wouldnt get those)

[tawny mesa]

i love it when you have to pay 250 dollars to scav

[grim estuary]

tbh theres some kind of bias, me standard edition didnt load in and was getting dissconnected

meanwhile my 2 friends with eod loaded in with no problem

[humble otter]

I’ve standard edition as well and can scav no problem

Think the problem you 2 are referring to is all the servers being used for PVE players atm… or both of you have shitty connection

[thorny steeple]

Same

Scaving shoreline with no connection issues

[grim estuary]

shitty connection? my brother in christ I have 50 mb/s download speed and had problems like these for past 2 wipes

[humble otter]

That was the second option in my text….

Read the 1st part

And maybe you should change your servers, could help

[grim estuary]

I did

I did every thing I could

nothing works

bsg instead of fixing the damn servers and games go to twitch con and buy btr for one ad

and add p2w "edition" EKHEM dlc

[tawny mesa]

i have every single server enabled lmao

last scav i had 300 ping

[grim estuary]

"players have issues with game? too bad xaxa, look at my 150k dollar watch"

[bronze ether]

Hey guys! This is my first wipe, ~200 hours and that's my current progress. Is anyone down to do some quests with me? I'm a bit tired of solo play. EN / GER from EU

[tough widget]

what causes some people to have an average life span of 5-10 minutes but with an average survival rate?

[upbeat elk]

Avg life span has been bugged for years, dont look at that stat at all. The calculations they do for the stat are wrong.

[gritty hatch]

my epic quest for bolts is still ongoing

[tough widget]

ohhhh ok

[gritty hatch]

in the meantime i have collected several dogtags

jesus christ

last 3 times i loaded in so far i instantly die to some level 40 dude spraying me

[fringe gale]

whats ur fav weapons for boss kills?

cool quest

[tawny mesa]

mosin

[oak lily]

What is a cheap gun to do the event on shoreline?

[fringe gale]

its to slow firerate in my opinion. but good single shot punch for sure

[thorny steeple]

UMP

[oak lily]

what is good ammo for that

[tidal lagoon]

??ammo

[oak lily]

thanks

[thorny steeple]

In a nutshell, its AP (Or RIP if you want to leg-meta people)- but if you want budget, go with FMJ

[unkempt egret]

I'd go with an SVT loaded with LPS/PS/BT if you can nail the headshots.

[toxic swift]

anyone need help today?

[dry flint]

How the fuck do I kill Kolontay as a solo

[lusty raptor]

hand to hand combat

[dry flint]

Fr?

I only got red rebel

[lusty raptor]

no idea but your guns jam always . i assume 2ndary weapons also jam

[dry flint]

All weapons jam in an area around him from what I know. He doesnt need to whack you for it to take effect

[bronze portal]

anyone wanna help me with the ground zero tasks keep getting rolled by lvl 30s

[dry flint]

If you are sub lvl 20, its best to team up with other sub 20's as that would not put you over the "higher lvl version" of ground zero

[upbeat elk]

You dont let him get close to you

[dry flint]

Problem is, he always spawns inside for me

[upbeat elk]

Thats not a problem. Instead of hiding behind the cupboard, just peek him and kill him while hes further away

[dry flint]

Yah I was trying to do that at the end of the clip, but the ADS killed me

[upbeat elk]

Hes really only an issue if he hides in a corner and you didnt spot him

[dry flint]

I just noticed, I havent killed him once since he was added 💀

[upbeat elk]

Hes pretty easy. Just always think to yourself that you need distance from him.

Cant wait behind a corner and wait for him to push you or peek the corner hes hiding at

[cloud copper]

can someone help me with the task farming part 1 at factory

[ivory nymph]

Does killing the Rouge boss on shoreline event as scav make me loose fence rep?

[undone drum]

Some bosses are in the scav faction and yes, it will give massive fence rep penalties to kill them

[cloud copper]

can someone help me with the task farming part 1 at factory

[tiny island]

can someone help me extract im so lost on shoreline pls 2 man squad 22

[grave pagoda]

hi looking for help to finish ground zero quest

[native raft]

what is that app called?

[nocturne hound]

hey people. Im lvl one just got the game and am lookin for smw to help me out

[marble shale]

some? is that to say you can kill others without losing fence rep?

[elfin elm]

I'd use Eft-ammo over the wiki but the wiki is fine

[elfin elm]

get help yet?

[nocturne hound]

dms

[proper island]

why is it taking so long to load into a pve raid

[elfin elm]

servers are on fire

they're still expanding the server amount to compensate for player traffic

[dense bloom]

I need to complete the task fishing gear for peacekeeper on shoreline but don’t know the map at all could anybody help out for one raid?

[elfin elm]

got a compass?

[dense bloom]

Yes

[elfin elm]

always head south and you'll eventually hit the shore

if it's a sand/dirt beach you're in the bottom left

if it's a raise pier at all then you're in the bottom right

the boat is in the bottom middle

just to the left of the pier builds and just south of the burning gas station

so basically head south, follow the shore

[dense bloom]

And to extract

Should I just follow the shore all the way down to one side or something

[native echo]

Did they release the wipe date yet?

[abstract harness]

??timmy

[red thistle]

If you're looking for teammates, you can head over to #beginners-assistance or #pvp-lfg.

If you're looking for a teacher/someone to guide you in-raid ; you can check out #sherpa-info. Sherpa’s official volunteers that will gladly teach you the game - They use a ticket system so there may be a tad bit of a wait time.

Alternatively, on the Sherpahub discord you may navigate to their #674275441367973891 (looking-for-group) or #673310157232406538 (looking-for-help) channels to find non-official sherpas that are offering help.
(Second set of channel links will not show properly until you join the Sherpahub Server)

[upbeat elk]

Early August

[tidal lagoon]

banned

[tawdry sparrow]

whats the difference between pve lfg and pvp lfg?

is the whole game not just pvp?

do u mean like going into practice mode with people?

[tidal lagoon]

no its tarkov except only AI enemies

they added it recently

[stoic vigil]

is anyone else having horrible queue times for pve?

[tawdry sparrow]

ah i see thanks for answering guys

[tidal lagoon]

everyone

[random field]

everytime i boot up tarkov it says user action required cannot establish server connection although my internet is working

it is also doing this for other apps such as steam

is there anyway to fix it

[elfin elm]

if steam is doing it too, then something on your pc is messed up

not exclusively a tarkov thing it seems

[fresh ether]

does the shooting range take away ammo

from your character

[thick spade]

no

[lusty raptor]

this is stupid

[fresh ether]

lmao hope you can make that back in one raid

[deft sonnet]

yo can anyone teach me streets extracts

[undone drum]

Yes

[leaden bluff]

Could somebody help me with these new ground zero quests? havent played the game in over a year

[elfin elm]

You learn the extracts yet?

[leaden bluff]

Hell nah just redownloaded the game lmao i have 2.5k hours but stopped playing after lighthouse was added

[leaden bluff]

^^

[elfin elm]

Offline for the extracts, not too hard to find them all since it's a fairly small map

And the road is basicallt an uppercase E

Especially since one of yoyr tasks is just find the emercom extracts, and find 3 med items

After you get the road and extracts down, fairly easy to look up each task relative to the road

[outer vector]

Can i wear digital flora for punisher 5?

[thick spade]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/The_Punisher_-_Part_5

[unkempt egret]

Did they change something about raid timers? I could have sworn that if you dropped bellow ten minutes the timer would remain in the corner of your screen.
Got caught with three minutes left in the middle of interchange.

Five meters from extract too :/

[elfin elm]

Usually yes

Wonder if you loaded in weird or something

[unkempt egret]

Might just be PVE being wierd. Come to think of it might be something like with the train extracts not leaving. Maybe the trigger for "display ten minutes remaining" is tied to the normal raid timers instead of the shortened ones.

[astral glen]

My raid timer always pops up at 10 minutes left in pve

[raven quarry]

Yea it works fine for me in pve

[primal flame]

I’ve been burnt out for about like 6 months want to play but know whole is happening just don’t know when and would like to know

[elfin elm]

I can't understand this

[primal flame]

Yea Ik I ment wipe

[orchid isle]

2 more months

August

[oak lily]

is a hk 416 with m855 good for the event on shoreline?

[whole vector]

For some bosses with no headgear. But tagilla and killa will be an issue

[oak lily]

thanks

should i have scope with it for just a 1x optic?

[orchid isle]

lol i used broken shotgun w 5.25mm and it worked

[oak lily]

damn lmao

[orchid isle]

1x would work but better to have some range incase u fight

so runi like a sepcre

spectre

minimum

[oak lily]

alr

tysm

[elfin elm]

you can still kill killa and tagilla with m855 from experience, but you gotta basically mag dump and have the drop on them

it's like 2 or 3 hits to the neck to kill them

[upbeat snow]

is there any way to get lvl 7 bolt action skill faster without doing shooter born and shooter part 8?

[elfin elm]

reloading snipers, specifically toploaded snipers

[upbeat snow]

like the mosin right?

[elfin elm]

most of the time people recommend manually lvling to like lvl 3 I think it is that way before turning in eiother of those tasks

cus it actually gives more xp that way

[upbeat snow]

yeah i am on lvl 3 rn

[elfin elm]

mosin, or m700 using the right stock

[upbeat snow]

i can do mentor

what will bring me to lvl 6

but but i still need 4 more lvl after that

[umbral yoke]

LF help with reserve, streets, lighthouse, customs tasks PVP First wipe

[upbeat snow]

even if i get to shooter part 8 that would still put me on lvl 9

[orchid isle]

buying unheard

[upbeat snow]

that only puts u on lvl 3

i am lvl 3 i can do mentor that is lvl 6 and maybe if i reload all the time i can get to lvl 7

than struggle with shooter part 7 and 8 ig

would be the way to go

corret me if there is a easier way to do it

[mint light]

+3 levels

[upbeat snow]

i am on lvl 3

with unheard

how many times i can reload without getting reduced xp 20 times?

[lusty raptor]

I just need it for a quest. I don't hack so my chances of surviving with any prize seem slim to none

i have the lvl to get max peacekeeper but i'm 0.02 rep short ree because I can't find AHF1 stim

[wide forge]

why is there a level 17 in level 21+ gz lobbies

[lusty raptor]

he must have come in with someone 20+

[wide forge]

oh

[rigid lynx]

need help questing on customs and woods

[tacit peak]

who can help with tasks on ground zero?

[grave pagoda]

i can cuz i need them done too

[elfin elm]

the problem with having experienced guys help with ground zero tasks is if they party up it forces you guys into a harder lobby

[fiery atlas]

can anyone help with customs map?

[prime comet]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Customs source

[steady falcon]

daym, shoreline is filled with 2 - 4 stack of lvl 50+ or low level + hours with such high KD

[elfin elm]

I just collect their left over kits on my scav run, yum yum

[thorny steeple]

Is there anyway to find Reshala on Customs? I've been going to dorms a lot for setup, yet I never find him there

[astral glen]

15% spawn rate right now during the event, and he can spawn at dorms, new gas station and the scav base between old gas station and RUAF

[thorny steeple]

Ok

[ember roost]

where do i find fuel conditioners?

[bold kernel]

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

This could be of use.

[grim karma]

Anyone need help? Im free for a couple of raids.

[ember roost]

you know where to find fuel conditioner, they are impossible to find

[grim karma]

reserve inside the food bunker

[ember roost]

will check

[grim karma]

these 4 keys

[nocturne moat]

pve quest lmao

[prime comet]

It's doable

Interchange, bully a scav into the extract and hope he doesn't murder you on the way

[slim gazelle]

yo can anyone help me finish up revision light house i did the 2 lvts in water treatment only missing the other ones i don't know where XD first wipe and im not really accounted with the map

[nocturne moat]

any clue on when i can play pve i have the one below EOD

[undone drum]

Did you tried to look it up on tarkov wiki?

[shy lichen]

gunsmith part 1 doesnt need the gk-02 choke anymore right?

[valid fjord]

yea

[eager lotus]

i upgraded to unheard but not got the additions on pve, do i need to do something?

[sweet minnow]

Do we still have that 20 mins scav cooldown timer?

[eager lotus]

I have waited like 24h

even just to get the pocket space?

i got it on pvp already not pve

[peak sun]

How long will the event be going on?

[dry flint]

??event

weird, its not working

[unique mantle]

a few more days to a few weeks, we cant know for sure

[fossil tiger]

??wipe

[crisp carbon]

When is the wipe.?

[dark trail]

early august

[visual cipher]

is there a way to reset a pve profile?

[slate pendant]

Not at the current moment, there is plans however to add such a button.

[sweet minnow]

The cooldown timer for scav from 20 mins down to less than 5?

[violet adder]

true?

[plush owl]

does pve pmc loot get better ss you level up

also how do i do shoreline tasks with all these bosses at resort sob

[bold kernel]

Just be better.

[icy steeple]

in what condition should I stop using the weapon?

[bold kernel]

A weapon can jam once it hits 92 durability.

At least, that’s what it said when I last checked the wiki.

[solid lion]

pmc gear is pretty random

[bold kernel]

I HAVE DEMENTIA!!!

Mods, don’t ban me for misinformation, please.

I beg. 🙏

[bold kernel]

@sharp socket, ban this guy for misinformation.

NOW!!!

[sharp socket]

What

Ok

Trizz

[bold kernel]

Thanks, chat.

[sharp socket]

No, thank you chat

[bold kernel]

You’re welcome, chat.

😁

[bold kernel]

Have you finished “Hustle” yet? I don’t think I’ve asked yet.

[sharp socket]

Nope, I haven’t found kollontay once lmao

[bold kernel]

💀

He’s a bitch jamming my weapons, fr.

He’s a fuckin’ wizard.

[sharp socket]

Yeah I just can’t find him at all

And tagilla keeps killing me through bushes

[lean silo]

tufffff

[bold kernel]

Having to do that with contest from other players sounds horrible, ngl.

[sharp socket]

Solo is sucks

That’s why you should make it not solo

[bold kernel]

I’m considering it.

But I suck at making promises, so.

My brain isn’t developed enough for that.

[sharp socket]

Just like

Develop it

[bold kernel]

I’m trying.

[sharp socket]

Put more research points in

Trust

[bold kernel]

Fish scare me.

🐟

😱

[fresh belfry]

does having a visor increase stam drain?

[sharp socket]

No

[bold kernel]

Am I crazy or is that a crazy question?

I mean, I guess it technically increases your stamina drain because it makes you heavier.

[fresh belfry]

and why did they make the ZSh-1-2M visor Level 3 instead of level 4? it wasnt op

[bold kernel]

Breathing?

[fresh belfry]

one would think if your breating is blocked by bullet resistant glass then your stam would drain faster right?

the armor level drop is crazy imo tho

[bold kernel]

You’re absolutely right.

I’m just a stupid little kid.

I’ve never been outside before.

[sharp socket]

It was always level 3

You may be thinking of the 2DTM

Which is a class 4 helmet with a class 4 visor

[bold kernel]

I can’t bear with face shields because they make my vision so bad. 😭

[fresh belfry]

it was level 4

i swear, because i ran it for the level 4 portection with the full helm

[sharp socket]

You are thinking of the 2DTM

[fresh belfry]

with the 6B armor

[sharp socket]

The ZSH is a class 4 with a class 3 FS

The thing below it is the Tor-2 and kiver-M with a class 3 helmet and FS, the thing above it is the 2DTM with a class 4 helmet and FS

I am certain at no point did the ZSH have a class 4 FS

[fresh belfry]

i could hhave sworn it was L4 pre armor update

but i guess not

is class 3 FS going to tank anything 7.62, 5.45, or 5.56?

ive had SP hit and i was fine

no player will be running that tho

[fresh belfry]

is that the spaceballs helmet?

[sharp socket]

Kinda? It looks similar to the vulkan which is what you may be talking about

[prime comet]

Goddamn spaceballs

Most people here won't have a clue what that is

[bold kernel]

The movie.

I’ve never watched it.

[prime comet]

It's very 80s cheese

[shy lichen]

what would yall say are the best maps to actually learn the game? ive been playing for a few wipes just following some friends and i have no clue what i should be doing at any point in a raid lmao

[prime comet]

I mean

You kinda have to learn them all for task progression

But start simple with customs and woods, then move onto shoreline imo

[bold kernel]

I agree with Geller.

[shy lichen]

i already know woods and customs well enough to navigate and ground zero is pretty simple. i mean more so what maps would help me learn like what to do in raids, if that makes sense?

[prime comet]

You need a goal

When you're on a map

[shy lichen]

like i can make my way around maps and i know most of the games systems well enough but once im in a raid im fucked

[prime comet]

A task to do

Just play the map you have the most tasks on, if you get bored go hunt some pvp on your preferred map

That's how I go about it anyway

And checking to see what tasks unlock as a reward, or lead onto

To decide if I actually want to or need to complete them

[bold kernel]

I get that on PvE sometimes.

Im just like, “Okay, what do I do? Where do I go? How do I live?”

[rigid lynx]

Hey can anyone help me today with some early game quest my second wipe and don’t have most of the keys required for them I’m also lvl 10

[bold kernel]

I was going to suggest also looking in #pvp-lfg, but you already did. 🙏

[zealous gale]

how the fuq u play this game

[elfin elm]

brand new?

[zealous gale]

why did they cap the TT pistol purchases to 3

i used to be able to buy like 30 of them at a time

im just kiddin lpl

lo

[elfin elm]

usually they cap items sale so the total global amount doesn't sell out before trader reset

idk wth they capped the TT pistol though

[zealous gale]

i only have experience in Factory. I have played only two other maps: Customs and Woods, both of which I only played a few times

But in Factory i have a lot of experience. I still don

I still don't understand the network of tunnels besides having many hundreds of hours there

❤️

[elfin elm]

lol

I have that one entirely memorized

tis the smallest map afterall

[haughty flax]

Does anybody know killas spawn rate? Im going to run interchange for tasks and i want to know

[elfin elm]

around 15%

[haughty flax]

Thanks

[elfin elm]

100% on shoreline atm though

or at least there's always a bunch if them spawned

[runic verge]

I have one gpu and one bitcoin, whats best to do with them?

sell to traders? wait for flea?

im level 3

[abstract harness]

Afaik global limits are totally gone, personal limits are the only thing holding you back now

TTs are just so powerful you’re only allowed to have 3 per reset

[elfin elm]

lol

[fresh belfry]

i do think some things should have personal limits, others make no sense

barters should have no limits per reset, you need the items to trade for them anyways

[abstract harness]

Took me a good few hundred hours to understand how to use the rafters lol

[fresh belfry]

its a simple concept.

the only confusing part is the right hand side. with having 2 ramps and 2 hallways. with that center square.

[abstract harness]

eh, I generally don’t like pushing from forklifts side to medtent side using the ramps the exit is too exposed

[turbid wave]

Is PvE only for EoD and above, or can you get PvE to a standard account?

[astral glen]

PVE mode is currently only available to Edge of Darkness and Unheard edition owners.
It is planned to be for available for purchase to all other editions in the expansions page later this month.

[fresh coral]

hey quick question... the Air Filtering Unit... do they always run? Or only when I am in raid?

[fresh belfry]

why is usec stash on customs so bad for 2 key door?

was it better before?

[undone drum]

always, but it gives you bonus only if you are in raid or to exercise

[fresh belfry]

if someone disconnects, they're pretty much immune to damage, you got killed by antoher player

[runic nova]

just unlocked btc farm 1st time

do i lose the gpus?

[fresh belfry]

depends, do you want weapon cases and stuff? each BTC is 900k

if your rub farming

whats the best benefit of mechanic LL3?

[wispy willow]

no

[runic nova]

Preciate it, good to know it just speeds up the time then

[wispy willow]

RPDN barter, 30r 45acp vector mags, sa-58 barter, wep case barter

[undone drum]

clip or it didn´t happen

[fresh belfry]

does anyone have a full hideout requirement list, and a full task requirement list?

[undone drum]

like what items to keep?

[fresh belfry]

yeah

im trying to clean up my 3 full junk boxes

[undone drum]

https://tarkovtracker.io/items

[undone drum]

tarkov tracker let you keep track for everything you need for hideout and quests

[orchid isle]

I’m gonna have to start using that ngl always been doing it by head

But I don’t play enough to remember now

[undone drum]

i am glad i don´t need to use excel tables anymore

[orchid isle]

Look at this lmao

[undone drum]

wanna see the opposite? Tagilla moonwalking to me 😄

[orchid isle]

Flash vs turtle

[undone drum]

[short bay]

can someone help me out why does this not work

gunsmith 5

i'm literally following wiki and cant put muzzle and i dont know where i am stuck

[fresh belfry]

where is this in labs

[whole onyx]

This looks like next to the dome, but I could be very wrong (Like the office zone) or maybe green keycard

[faint canopy]

You should watch airwingmarine's gunsmith series for those tasks

He tells you everything you need to know including cheap barters

[fresh belfry]

i need to know for sure, it only has 2 spawns and i need 1

[faint canopy]

If you look up the item on the wiki it should tell you the spaens

[fresh belfry]

yeahhhhh......

it doesnt, not in this SS

its from the wiki

[faint canopy]

Spawns

oh

thats weird

dk i feel like those little boxes are everywhere on labs lol

[undone drum]

still?

[short bay]

i figured it out. Wrong barrel on the gun i found, just bought hte standard one and it worked

god i hate modding in this game that is why steyr is the best weapon

[undone drum]

you are absolutely right on so many levels

[fresh belfry]

thats what im saying, they are all over labs

[short bay]

people don't like the gun but once you learn the recoil, its like you are auto aiming on someone's chest or back.

[fresh belfry]

mark what is your highest Loyalty level?

[short bay]

traders?

[fresh belfry]

yes

[short bay]

2, i play only for 2 months, and not that much

why?

[faint canopy]

maybe the first location this guy shows https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JB-PxoRCKeg

nevermind its like the 4th spot

its outside of the office area with the safe i believe

[fresh belfry]

best 7.62x39 build LL2

if you go suppressed use a hybrid DT+suppressor

[short bay]

interesting, thx

[vale loom]

why is my scav timer only 3 mins

[plush owl]

pve?

[mint light]

event

[vale loom]

no its pvp

[plush owl]

oh lol

yeha i was wondering that too

[vale loom]

how long is this for

[mint light]

unknown amount of time

when the bosses on shoreline dip

[vale loom]

thxsa

[mortal tangle]

anybody wanna help me and run some gmaes lol. I havnt played in a while and forgot a lot

[fresh belfry]

with an MOESL And DD Mlock vertical foregrip

based on pure weight, sacrifice of like 3 recoil this is the best LL2 m4

both guns cost weapon+mods around 100k

[short bay]

will check it out thx a bunch

i did not really pay that much attentio nto the stats only the scope or sights

[fresh belfry]

this is my LL3 M4 (Pre level 30)

[fresh belfry]

stats matter

you could also use a TX-15 lightweight upper, i just used the standard m4 for it being 100% trader obtained

this or a 1911 is what i run until LL2

[short bay]

saved all in screenshots to check out tomorrow what i cana after i wake up 😄 thanks and gn

[runic nova]

??wipe

[red thistle]

The next wipe in combination with the patch 0.15 has been announced for early August. This is subject to change. See ??wipedates for information on previous wipes

[polar vault]

how can i side look while moving

[rigid lynx]

middle mouse

[elfin elm]

ax-15 upper is better, and just straight from flea

I think the deltacarbon handguard from jaeger is a better handguard too

[nocturne moat]

PVE Matching times messed up?

[noble rose]

hey I have one labs key should I go to labs or wait

[orchid isle]

do u know the map

[orchid isle]

time to see if i get head necked by buckshot from 30m again

[slate pendant]

[elfin elm]

you do need two labs cards for a task

[orchid isle]

gimme all ur gear

[slate pendant]

no

im waiting for night time rn

i got the kit for boss killing

[noble rose]

here is the thing 1. no I don't know the map 2. I'm level 7 so why would I need a lab card @elfin elm

[elfin elm]

for the task fishing place from jaeger that requires two labs cards found in raid

[noble rose]

I don't have jaeger

[elfin elm]

you're lvl 17 and don't have jaeger?

.>

oh wait, lvl 7

nvm, that makes more sense

he's not too hard to unlock

[ornate cedar]

anyone main streets that can teach me the map a little bit

[noble rose]

Hey does anyone know a fast way to earn flea and I mean within the next hour kinda fast

[slate pendant]

here we go once again

[orchid isle]

i keep dying to rats with like 2 hours sittin in a bush

butt

idk how these players even have fun

[elfin elm]

same way arma snipers have fun

[orchid isle]

its tarkov

[mint light]

dying of old age?

[orchid isle]

if they wanna do that go play smt else

[mint light]

oh dementia

[mint light]

they are doing agent 47 roleplay

[fresh belfry]

yeah i said that....but this was soley a ll2 trader build

[slate pendant]

i didnt last very long either

i got fragmented by big pipe

[orchid isle]

i just got beamed across the map by glukar i think

during night

[slate pendant]

boss with night vision moment

[orchid isle]

yea his guards

[fresh belfry]

also.... what carbon handguard?

[elfin elm]

mispoke on that one, it's LL3

[fresh belfry]

at LL3?

[elfin elm]

yep, that'd reach past your LL 2 build

though imo, flea should partically be part of that

cus if you LL2 wwith everybody, you're lvl 15

at least

fun experiment though

[fresh belfry]

i prefer the ax-15 handguards. that one does have cazy high cooling for some reason

yeah... though start of wipe, everything is so price gouged/overpriced.

also why wait for someone to list it when you can just grab it from the trader and be consistent with it.

[elfin elm]

is the ax-15 handguard from traders lvl 2?

[fresh belfry]

i feel like +25- is either A a typo. or B a false stat. i find it hard to believe its 18% higher stat than ALL other handguards

no thats post level 3

i said

[elfin elm]

which handguard?

[fresh belfry]

best LL2 build moe SL carbine if you want to run a foregrip, only a small recoil difference, with this build you dont need to buy one

[elfin elm]

I'd believe it

[elfin elm]

that's not the MOE SL?

[fresh belfry]

@slate pendant sorry to mention you, but would it be possible to confirm this stat? its durastically higher than other handguards of its class

[elfin elm]

imo

the foregrip is worth it

[slate pendant]

theres no way for me to get a 100% confirmation for you but if it says "x example stat" on the foregrip then id say its legit.

[fresh belfry]

this is with the SL with handguard, what 3 recoil points?

25% cooling? when every other handguard says 2-5%?

[slate pendant]

it could be a typo, but i have seen other handguards with high cooling

im not sure

[elfin elm]

the two parts for this handguard are like 17k, the moe sl on it's own is mildly cheaper, 1 ergo more, and can take botha foregrip and a tac device

[fresh belfry]

really nickle and diming, on stats and weight/price

its prefrence

you also sacrifice a front sight

at that point its prefrence

[elfin elm]

not really, you can still put a front sight on with the Moe SL

depending of gasblock choice

[fresh belfry]

i see an m4 with a sl getting scooped over the weird AB arms

even with the best possible handguard at LL2 its only a 3 point recoil difference.

[elfin elm]

if a gun with a moe is getting scooped at this point, any m4 is getting scooped

[fresh belfry]

did you take into account purchasing the SL, and the grip?

[elfin elm]

the SL has better stats without a foregrip, then if you also get a foregrip it's like maybe 20k more

[fresh belfry]

its 18k for sl

SL carbine length?

[elfin elm]

no, that is a good point

though 406 is free

[fresh belfry]

ABA 11 ergo, 1% recoil, 3.5% cooling 0.9%heat

SL at 1.8% cooling, 16 ergo, 5.8% heat

[elfin elm]

cooling and heating really doesn't matter that much

[fresh belfry]

(dont need a 4.1 because youll use daniel defence enchance m-lok.) 58usd 8,294rub

either way you build it, the stats arent drastically different

[elfin elm]

57 ergo, 87 recoil ABA
61 ergo, 84 recoil MOE SL

and the moe gets a tac device

so you get a flashlight, and hipfire bonus

[fresh belfry]

you can put a tactical on the top rail of the ABA

your ergo is off, im at 65 with aba

[mint light]

holy min maxxing

[fresh belfry]

oh also i just realized, i never changed the muzzle for that build

idk what the best trader 5.56 muzzle is for LL2

i think its the SF3P

[fresh belfry]

gotta get the edge for wipe right?

and then youd grab a monster for a suppresor

from flea

moe SL carbine is better, but both are viable if youre waiting for resets.

@elfin elm thoughts on AKM build?

would use a hybrid suppressor if i wanted quiet

[elfin elm]

yeah that's pretty solid for a lvl 2

[mint light]

usually i just try shooting

[fresh belfry]

samesies, i just dont shoot into the air like some people do

[elfin elm]

I only changed the handguard and barrel between the two

[mint light]

impossible to miss with new recoil ngl

[elfin elm]

everything else was either stock, or the same

[elfin elm]

explain how you keep missing then

lol, jk

[fresh belfry]

with my ss's identical presets with the same swapped.

i kept the barrel the same

why change it? its an m4

[elfin elm]

406 barrel is pretty much free

and the long MOE handguard is even better

[wet axle]

dont use akm,
its has been heavily nerfed so its price/performance is not that good

[elfin elm]

it's okay

it's just too bouncy due to the caliber

[fresh belfry]

both guns run about the same price

[elfin elm]

only 7.62x39 gun worth running is pretty much the sks

[fresh belfry]

it does kick around, but 7.62x39

[wet axle]

ammo is mid aswell....

[fresh belfry]

i dont like sks

[elfin elm]

you should

[fresh belfry]

for loyalty level 2?

[wet axle]

semi auto....

[elfin elm]

it's LL 1

and has no recoil

[fresh belfry]

nahhh. im good

[wet axle]

honestly true

but don't run the hexagon suppressor

its bugged and still has muzzle flash

[fresh belfry]

id prefer cqc auto

[wet axle]

tbh true

[elfin elm]

smg then

mp5sd

[fresh belfry]

for dmrs then yah

for that specific playstyle

[wet axle]

this is better and at ll2 for AKM.

[elfin elm]

buttpad better

[fresh belfry]

how?

[wet axle]

just checked and higher recoil

this beats it tho in performance

[elfin elm]

that is also not LL2
