[night junco]

Based

[scenic lake]

its good enough as it is

[night junco]

It also sounds awesome unsuppressed

[scenic lake]

true

[night junco]

Imo

[wary wasp]

are there more guns that have good ammo pentration that i can use with lvl 17?

[scenic lake]

and it kills your ergo when surpreseed

[scenic lake]

7.62x51

bcp fmj

35 pen you can use like an rfb or somethin

[night junco]

762 ak with pp ammo, 300 blackout with cbj or m62. Mp7 with fmj, all can be got on flea

[scenic lake]

7.62 is bouncy af for some reason

[night junco]

Ye they did it wrong 😂 it’s in “time out”

Still decent pen tho

[scenic lake]

penwise yes

[night junco]

Rfb is goated

A cheap sa58 can smack too with bcp

[scenic lake]

true

[pallid ruin]

do you have an nvme? i assume you do since with those specs its a must have but if you dont start with that

also, the match with your cpu and gpu is good, tarkov is cpu intensive so if you were to upgrade one I'd say go for cpu

tarkov in itself doesnt run like a charm either so unless youre getting sub60 frames (which i doubt unless youre running 2k) an upgrade wont change much imo

[pallid ruin]

sa58 barter for the 50round mag slaps

cheap labs machine

[spice gate]

How do I know if I have nvme?

[fast sequoia]

hey maybe silly question but will pve ever wipe or is it only if the player does it on the website

[stiff cape]

go to System Information in Windows. Components>Storage>Disks

should display on Model for ya

[pallid ruin]

check your drives, click the windows button, type diskmgr and press enter, you will see your drive / drives there, then right click on it and press properties, then you will see the model

[stark arch]

is the SKS still a good early game gun ?

i remember watching a video a long time and it told me that it was, idk about the current meta ect

[abstract harness]

Sks is a great gun, but the problem is you can’t get any decent ammo for it at ll1 traders anymore
You might be able to snag some t-45 or ps off of fence, but don’t use it if you can’t find at least t-45

The sks as a gun is really good this wipe though

[stark arch]

but ps is bad ?

oh sp sorry

[night junco]

It’s not great, but sometimes u just gotta do with what u got if it’s all u got your hands on

U can def make it work

And the sks is a laser rn

[abstract harness]

Yes it’s very bad at that point might as well just use an smg and aim for head eyes

[night junco]

Anything’s better than a blicky or no ammo

[latent glen]

Early game gun

Ak 74u I think

And is very effective

[ashen birch]

This is more or less what I run until I unlock PK2 for the ump. Goes alright early

[latent glen]

A Sherpa gave me the build when he was helping me @ashen birch

[ashen birch]

As a Sherpa I give out a very similar build as well

[latent glen]

@ashen birch this is my first wipe how you think I’m doing

[ashen birch]

It gets the job done

[latent glen]

Yh it does

[ashen birch]

Legitimately stat's mean nothing, play the game how you wish to and enjoy it. Focusing on number go up when you are just starting off is a good way to burn yourself out

[latent glen]

Ok

[tidal lagoon]

i basically only use the aks74u variants too early game

[latent glen]

I’m liking the 300 blackout at the minute tho little to no recoil and just slaps in general

[tidal lagoon]

yea 300. is pretty nice especially at higher tier

[latent glen]

Like I’ve never played pc before either and this is my first ever time on Tarkov

And my stash is full I need to upgrade to the unheard edition

[tidal lagoon]

no you dont need to do that part

[latent glen]

Why

[tidal lagoon]

waste of money id say

you need to sell stuff

[latent glen]

But I also want the pve

[tidal lagoon]

you will be able to buy it separately soon

[latent glen]

Sold loads of stuff but keep bringing guns out off pmcs that I don’t have access to yet so I don’t really wanna sell em

[stiff cape]

i personally hate sks, feels bad esp early, id rather run a mosin

[latent glen]

Any idea when

[stiff cape]

or anything else

[tidal lagoon]

no not really but it cant be too long

[latent glen]

Mosin is nice

[stiff cape]

mosin ammo always scales well as ya level

[tidal lagoon]

but think about it this way if u keep bringing out guns u cant get, then if u sell them and keep going u will get back those guns anyways

[latent glen]

But the hideout lvl 3 and other stuff is handy to have id say especially at the start of a wipe

[tidal lagoon]

yea the extra stash space is nice

[latent glen]

Yh true I’m gonna sell a bunch now

[tidal lagoon]

i would probably buy the second highest edition tho not unheard personally

[stiff cape]

tfw got EOD

[latent glen]

Already have it

[tidal lagoon]

oh bet

[latent glen]

Off somebody

[ashen birch]

We don't do that

[mint light]

holy mod

[latent glen]

Yh I know I know a few people that already have but don’t play anymore but they might get back into it

[latent glen]

Sell accounts??

[mint light]

no breaking tos guys! the red guy will take you down…

[latent glen]

I’m not trying to buy one on here if that’s what you think

[ashen birch]

My g, not the point. Most of them are accounts that have been hacked from others. You will most likely cop a ban on it and over all its not worth

[gleaming tide]

DOES THE FEET POINTing method stil lwork on dead bodies?

[abstract harness]

Do u mean how dead bodies feet tend to point to where they were shot at? Cause yes

[gleaming tide]

ok cool

I see alot of poeple state this armor is kinda OP. do people swap the plates out or rock lvl 4s?

[tidal lagoon]

its not op at all

it was probably the best lvl 4 before this wipe and before armor reworks

[gleaming tide]

gotcha its just lightweight

[tidal lagoon]

now its a mid lvl 4 plate carrier

ofc u can swap out for better plates

like if u want something lightweight its good ig

[gleaming tide]

like is it worth running lvl 6s in it? is it a good carier?

ok gotacha

[night junco]

trooper < kirasa

[tidal lagoon]

i mean all carriers are kinda the same really, like u can put t6 in all of them and then it just comes down to the soft armor which is eitehr lvl 2 or 3

u could have a slick which is also a plate carrier just that it has tier 3 soft armor so slightly better protection

[orchid elm]

t3 aramid matters

[cinder field]

how does priest behave when i killed all of his 4 guards on customs?

[lusty raptor]

never even seen priest

[gleaming tide]

at what durabliity woudl it be time to trash some armor

[night junco]

Normally rats, as far as I’ve seen all the cultist act about the same. They don’t really do boss guard tactics

Used to kill ‘em a lot

[night junco]

It varies based on armor material, you can see YouTube videos or charts to get an idea of exactly when the start to fall off

I’d trash that plate after 25

If I really needed the armor

[abstract harness]

When the plate reaches half durability it starts acting as a class below it’s listed class

So at 50% dura a t4 plate would act as a t3

[cinder field]

I couldn't find Priest. Walked around skeleton and the nearby area. He wasn't there. So I should just go again and again and again until I kill him, right? @night junco

[night junco]

If he’s your target ye

[cinder field]

I need him for broadcast 5

[night junco]

There funny sometimes, not funny haha, funny 🥲

[cinder field]

I got the knives but I still need them for night sweep

[night junco]

I’m not totally up to date on all of there new customs locations, Srry I can’t tell more.

[cinder field]

Kk and thx

[night junco]

Only fought them at fortress this wipe

[cinder field]

Then I will hunt him tomorrow again

There still there

Fortress or skeleton. It's the same afaik

[night junco]

I miss mechanic cultist 😭

[tidal lagoon]

pretty real

[stiff cape]

whats that?

[night junco]

old spawn for them instead of skeleton was outside mechanics shop next to crack on customs. it was a really good farm, hence why they took it away

[stiff cape]

oh the garage, ya

where are they now?

oh skeleton, hm

[misty dragon]

Does the level you get in arena carry over to eft?

because I grinded lvl 20 in arena and my eft account is still the same level I was when I went to started playing arena

[abstract harness]

its supposed to, but syncing is delayed for some, its a known issue

[misty dragon]

I see, that answers my question thanks

I had to give up my EOD account because of very unfortunate events and bought this, 1 raid about to be level 20. Arena is amazing lmao

[reef scaffold]

is this barter actually worth it

[abstract harness]

if you like 5.45, its a pretty good ak build

supressor is 100k from mechanic alone

[reef scaffold]

thats kinda nutty actually now that im breaking down the parts and the cost of the barter item

the gun build is probably 150kish and all id really change is the stock, so yeah thanks that works out didnt realize that suppressor was so expensive

[abstract harness]

yeah, its best in slot for a lot of parts

[reef scaffold]

ok, now how tf do i get korund front plates

[abstract harness]

good way of getting some stuff for cheat

[abstract harness]

lighthouse quests, good luck

[reef scaffold]

theres two maps i been putting off, streets cause it keeps crashing and lighthouse because i fucking hate it

good money tho

fuck lh tho

[abstract harness]

i have only gone lighthouse to do some markers, thats it lol

[reef scaffold]

i hated it when there was just a douchebag with a rfb on every ledge, now i hate it more bc the goons yolo after me every time i go there

[abstract harness]

also u can just buy a korund/balgary if ur lazy

[reef scaffold]

I guess it depends on how much they sell back for lol

[gleaming tide]

so scavs loot now in pvp to?

[reef scaffold]

i hope so, too many people just kill them and know its not worth the loot

should be a nice incentive to go into that self-made trap

[gleaming tide]

what do? I thought it would disapeaer

[mint light]

delete it

[gleaming tide]

dam bro no barters to refil it

WOOT WE DID IT BOYZ

[ebon quartz]

[copper elbow]

you wanna go duo there?

[peak thicket]

when is fixed ?

[wary wasp]

Hello everyone, am going to use the 7,63 ps ammo that has a good chance to penetrate level 4 armor. WHich ammo would you use? That is my question. I have 7 million roubles.

[scarlet rapids]

what is a good replacement of the dmr gun?'

whats a good gun build i can use with ammo i can buy off of the flea market? ive got about 25 million in roubles and like 5 m more in stuff like bitcoin and other drops

[woeful spruce]

I assume youre asking about 7,62x39. You can use the ps rounds but you will have about 40% penetration chance on first shot (on each subsequent it will be higher)
To be sure you penetrate class 4 every time you will have to buy at least pp rounds, and if you have a way of getting them of course bp and mai ap are of course the best. But i usually get by with just using pp most of the time

[woeful spruce]

Not a whole lot of ammo thats good and available on the flea but maybe try building an mcx with .300 cbj ammo, 43 pen. Should work decent. You can also try to run some 762x39 gun with pp (probably mid range sks build is the best for that), you can also run an svd with lps, ps or some other ammo above the 40 penetration mark thats available on flea. You dont have that many good options for amo without higher lvl traders and high lvl workbench

You could also try an mp7 with fmj sx i think you can buy that on the flea too

[scarlet rapids]

whats t he mp7 build

[woeful spruce]

You just put a supressor on it and a sight that you like, thats the build

Supressor is optional really

[scarlet rapids]

uhh im completely useless with that stuff lol

[woeful spruce]

But idk how is it with sourcing mags for it without traders

[scarlet rapids]

whats a good supressor and like a good holo site

[woeful spruce]

Mp7 only takes one kind of supressor so get that one

[scarlet rapids]

should i gety the mp7 a1 or a2

[woeful spruce]

Doesnt really matter but a2 is slightly better as you can put your own foregrip on it

[scarlet rapids]

whats like a good site

just any site, its for close range maps like lighthouse

[woeful spruce]

For the sight do whatever man, i like the eotechs, i like the deltapoint and i even dont hate the cobra ekp cause it gives you extra ergo. Try stuff out

[woeful spruce]

Lighthouse is like the oposite of a close range map but ok

[scarlet rapids]

oh sorry for keying stuff like chalet

yk thats close range

[woeful spruce]

Then sure i guess, if you can sorce 30 or 40 round mags go for the mp7 for sure. The sight you choose doesnt matter that much its entirely personal prefrence, you can copy from streamers or whatever, i would recomend the deltapoint as its clean and small just buy the sight base for it to mount it on

If i may ask how did you get to 25 milion without knowing baisics of gun building? It took me like 3 wipes of playing and learning to get to that kind of money

Just curious

[scarlet rapids]

oh

to be 100% honest, i used to just run in with a 40 k build

legit thats it. untill i hit lvl 15

lighthouse is really good for money as there are like 5 bitcoin spots

and 4 intel spots

[woeful spruce]

Interesting playstyle i gotta say but everyobe has their own way to have fun so good luck

[scarlet rapids]

lol

nah i have more fun now, but im not making as much money yk

anyways dude thanks for the help. appreciate it

[woeful spruce]

Np

[scarlet rapids]

also whats a good backpack

nvm alr got one

[stark arch]

is it worth using used armor or it decreases the protection ?

[zinc moat]

where do i get M61?

also.

what is the point of M1A when RFB exists

if value was a logarithmic curve, M1A exists all the way at the end

[reef spoke]

Found in raid or craft iirc. I normally get it off players I kill

And the m1a used to be the lowest recoil semi auto .308 but the curve has changed over the years

[zinc moat]

damn

the stats say that its lower recoil than rfb

but recoil is floaty asf

probably got to do with the heavier weight

[reef spoke]

There are a lot of hidden stats on the guns and I think the m1a has some pretty rough modifiers on the recoil but it's literally been years since that info was widely available

[zinc moat]

yeah

[reef spoke]

Personally I think the m1a should have one of the best recoil feels in the game , but be an absolute boat anchor to sling around.

[vernal terrace]

i believe you can modify the M1A much more, they also get drum mags. and I imagine that the parts would provide better stats overall, compared to the rfb

[stark arch]

is it worth using used armor or it decreases the protection ?

[void roost]

Armor maintains it's effectiveness until the plates are at 0. Assuming the plates are reasonably damaged and can be repaired to a good amount, it's totally fine using damaged armor, but if the plates are at like 15/15 because they've been repaired so much, it might be worth it to just buy new plates, because they'll be 0'd out in a shot or two anyways

[stark arch]

allright thanks 👍

[zinc moat]

would also be significantly more expensive

[rough hedge]

So if you "sell all" how does it sell it? like does it sell the item to the trader that'll give you the most for it

[glad prawn]

good big backpack is satl off flea and then trooper/blackjack/attack2

outside of those id only use the beta 2

wouldnt bring the satl for pvp however cause it looks massive and its got weird storage so its only good for loot

[woeful spruce]

Nope, selling it yourself can get you more money as that button sells it all to fence im pretty sure. But its much more convenient

[rough hedge]

Thank you

[vital cove]

any fresh timmies need a starter kit? IGN - IllunaFPS - lvl 42 - NA Servers. ive hit my boring point where im just doing money runs and i wanna spread some wealth to new players

[glad prawn]

@warm lily

he needs a woods kit and help with a quest @vital cove

if he sees this

[vital cove]

which quest

ill chill in chat to see if he pops up

[warm lily]

i see it, i just doubt its going to work out

[vital cove]

whatchu mean my friend

[glad prawn]

@warm lily this is the only thing Id be bringing to woods for cheap kits

ak doesnt have to be supp but it helps and that build should be dirt cheap this late in wipe

[warm lily]

im not dying in long range fights though

so the long range wouldnt help me

[vital cove]

are you on pve or pvp roy

[glad prawn]

svt and that ak are fine up close

[warm lily]

not if im having to quick peak for people camping inside zb bunkers again

[glad prawn]

you really shouldnt bring a pp19 to woods

that ak is fine for quick peeking lmao

[warm lily]

pvp

[vital cove]

hmmm a woods kit for pvp but cheap, gimme one sec to find my old build

[glad prawn]

this is the best thing ur getting without sacrificing almost all of your range if its seriously that big of deal

or spending way to much money on a gun that can effectively fight cqb and long distance

[vital cove]

a Adar with M855 is 10x better than a ak with PS

[glad prawn]

🤷‍♀️

some truth to it but the ak is better than a pp19 on woods just cause of bunkers

doesnt help that I hate the adar and tx15

[warm lily]

yea, need something to face tank a lvl 50+ chad w/ lvl 5-6 armor and meta guns

[glad prawn]

this is the only thing thats tanking for you till you can get level 5 armor

[vital cove]

well this late in wipe its time to play around what the chads would be doing, normally its shurtman hunting for the mjolnir rifle or shooter born in heaven, i use that info to dictate my ways around the map

chads are rather predictiable

[glad prawn]

thats problem he has to go into saw

[vital cove]

okay thats no issue, hangout near the beach with food and water until last 15 mins then move out

[glad prawn]

but cant afford the stims to either 1 rush it get the item he needs and be out before anyone is there or 2 im guessing he has a problem with waiting

[vital cove]

oh does he need a folder from a cabin hoise

[glad prawn]

yes

[vital cove]

fuck

[warm lily]

killed by a cheater

[vital cove]

honestly its why i swapped to pve, the cheaters are so bad it makes pvp unplayable

takes me (a 5k hour player) 3-5 months to get max traders in pvp thanks to complications, pve im lvl 42 in a month

[warm lily]

loaded into another raid the the same build and died again

now ive got less than 40k in my stash and i have no primary weapons

scavs got a toz, so thats out of the question

im hopping off, thanks anyways

@vital cove

[vital cove]

hmu later via dm and ill see what i can do for you, ive been in your shoes tons of times. its frustrating but you got this to be able to push through roy!

[edgy plover]

This is wild

[vital cove]

is it? because the playerbase who hits max traders in 24 hors or less is what makes it unplayable

or streamers

[edgy plover]

Sure bud

[vital cove]

ok

[night junco]

Defeat makes the victory taste even sweeter

[lavish kindle]

latest update made it where I have a corruptted file??

[night junco]

Check file integrity in launcher

[lavish kindle]

I did integrity check and repair, and same thing keeps happening

[zinc moat]

jesus christ

[wary wasp]

What is low budget meta? Like what gun and ammo would you run with minimal inventment but can do stuff with in the game.

[night junco]

Kedar, sks, any ak, mosin, mp-153, mp7, 556 mdr, 300 blackout, svt or avt, svd. “Low budget” is relative, these are options that come to mind for me. U got a price range u wanna stay under?

Rfb too^

[wary wasp]

80 k

is 556 mdr not locked

like on the flea

[night junco]

U can get it on flea

It’s ab 55k

[stiff cape]

[wary wasp]

If i search Kedar i get nothing

[night junco]

mb i spell wrong

[wary wasp]

kedr yeah

and avt?

[night junco]

Avt and svt I get from fence fr

[zinc moat]

RFB is 40k, if you got a good trigger finger you literally dont need any other weapon.

[night junco]

you have to do a quest I think to unlock it

[zinc moat]

Killed a duo yesterday at Resort with it, one of them was a chad

[night junco]

It shoots a really good round though

[wary wasp]

what ammo should i use?

[zinc moat]

M80 after doing the lighthouse quest

[night junco]

Bcp fmj

[zinc moat]

yeah for now that

[stable bronze]

what timephase should i chose

higer or lower time

[zinc moat]

wdym

[night junco]

Daytime to see, night for less players

[stable bronze]

yeah but like what time is light and what time is day im US

[zinc moat]

what

[night junco]

Do the conversion from military time, if u don’t know how just Google it, its ez to figure out

[wary wasp]

But BCP FMJ ammo has a 4 effectinevess. Should i not go better a full auto gun. Rather then RFB and single fire but fast fire if i shoot fast.

[night junco]

For cheap options you want rfb, if u want full auto get sa-58

[zinc moat]

If you run budget you are only gonna get budget guns

[night junco]

It’s 100k+ tho

[zinc moat]

150k is more realistic

gotta mod it

[night junco]

You can buy relatively modded ones already

[scenic lake]

why mod just spray and pray baby

[night junco]

And it rlly doesn’t need that much

[wary wasp]

For exapmle, i am going to run a ak with 7.63 PS ammo. it has the same pen.

and ak is full auto and cheap

[night junco]

U can use it stock fine fr, atleast I can

[wary wasp]

and ak can equip laser

[scenic lake]

7.62x39 has worse recoil

[zinc moat]

then why are you asking

[wary wasp]

no just getting more advice

[wary wasp]

is the recoil that much worse?

[zinc moat]

Yes

[night junco]

Same pen but bcp is 30 more dmg a round

[wary wasp]

dammmm

[night junco]

Bigger bullet= more dmg

[scenic lake]

ye it is faster so it has more energy

i think its like 200m/s faster

[zinc moat]

You gotta have a good trigger finger and a good aim. If you think youd cramp out in a fight, dont go for the RFB.

invest in SA 58

wipes next month anyway

[scenic lake]

i wish it was wipe already

[zinc moat]

RPD is gonna be so much fun with the bipod mechanics

[scenic lake]

true

[lavish kindle]

can I re-install game with-out deleting my guy?

cant get by integrity error

[night junco]

Yes, your character is on the Bsg servers

[lavish kindle]

thks

[lavish kindle]

BSG will not email me verification code??? THis is such a frigin pain

[fleet whale]

check spam

[grand pelican]

You just gotta wait and sometimes resend it a few times, It happens to me all the time.

[sullen spindle]

Im new, can i get some help?

what is the quickest way to leearn all of the exfils?

[remote merlin]

well it seems us north servers just died

[tacit flame]

Hi I'm not really a beginner but I'm having trouble with a few quests. Is there somebody that can help me out with 5 more quests to unlock Kappa for the first time Quests that I got to do Stray Dogs, The huntsman Path Eraser part 2, A shooter born in heaven (interchange and ground zero) Crisis need a few more multivitamins and Easy job part 2. Anybody up for duo?

[brittle crane]

i would do 1 map at a time. if you have a second monitor, open a map up on that screen with the extracts. It's easy to orientate yourself on the map by looking for points of interest. Run some offline raids to just familiarise yourselfs with maps

[stark arch]

If you kill the player who is trying to take the car extract, you get the place? i mean you dont need to pay since he already paid

[hoary falcon]

no

[lone basin]

should i turn this off? what do yall think?

[night junco]

For consistency sake 99% of gamers do

It makes your mouse move exponentially faster at pretty random intervals

As you move your hand at different speeds

If you still want mouse accel but to make it consistent there are apps for that, that are very effective and tested already. “Raw accel” is one of those apps

[wary wasp]

does lighthouse have good extractions as pmc? Like easy to go to extractions?

[night junco]

2 are very easy, path to shoreline and southern road. One is on each end of a loot run

[elfin elm]

I'd say northern road isn't the hardest to use either, but harder than those two for sure

[umbral sage]

ANYONE NEED HELP DM ME!!!

[wide forge]

what earset does gunsight support

[tardy crescent]

I think the excels work with it

[still talon]

hello i just made a post in the sherpa hub if any new players are needing help check it out

[stray fossil]

Anyone down to play and do some pvp? Im new lvl 12

[runic locust]

Is there a glitch with the salewa med quest ? I’ve got two in raid but doesn’t show in the progress bar and at some point it show I had one then now it show nothing

[abstract harness]

u have to turn them in using the turn in button

[stray fossil]

anyone down to play with a new player im lvl 12

[runic locust]

Yeah I’ve done that with other quest but this one has no turn in button

[abstract harness]

It should
That quest requires 2 fir salewas to be turned in, idk why the button wouldn’t show up

[runic locust]

I’ll check again

[fervent raft]

Are you sure they have the found in raid status

[wanton fulcrum]

will buying more ram make my game run smoother

[hoary falcon]

how much you got

[runic locust]

Yeah I found them in raid but just checked the don’t say that while I hover the mouse over them . Strange?

[fervent raft]

You extracted too early or died with Them in Secure container

[runic locust]

Ok yeah I think I did. How do you get them to count then ?

[fervent raft]

You need to get a certain amount of exp or stay in raid for 7 minutes to be sure

[fervent raft]

You have to find new ones

[runic locust]

Ok

I’ll just use them then and get new ones

[fervent raft]

Good plan

[runic locust]

They where kinda hard to come by

[fervent raft]

What map do you run?

Theres a Big medical Camp on Woods

Think Its called scav outpost

That one is good for finding them

And the crackhouse on customs

[runic locust]

Ground zero I got them on Emercon and customs got one in crack house

[fervent raft]

You should be good finding them there, good luck

[runic locust]

Ok I’ll try Woods

[runic locust]

Thanks

[sullen spindle]

thank you

[signal pilot]

NA player, always willing to help just let me know.

[wispy stratus]

is anyone playing pve who is level 4 peacekeeper?

i cannot seem to buy sig hybrid

please help granpa

[fervent raft]

Show your peacekeeper, just send a picture here

[wispy stratus]

when i try to buy the amoo i get this

[fervent raft]

You tried restarting the game?

[abstract harness]

Try queuing for a scav and instantly back out/restarting your game

[fervent raft]

I dont play pve so idk the bug but restart is usually the fix

Or the scav thing yes

[wispy stratus]

i did , same result

[fervent raft]

Hmm wierd

[wispy stratus]

it says loyalty level is too low

[stray fossil]

anyone down to duo?

im new lvl 12

[rocky gale]

Advice for new players, learn about various barters and trade ups that will make you more money

[gleaming tide]

So I cant buy this thing on flea, whats the easies map to learn with a spawn?

[gray moth]

the only map gps spawns in is labs

[abstract harness]

its a labs only item

[gleaming tide]

LOL WAT

[abstract harness]

learn dynamic loot spawns on labs, viibiin has a good video going over them

[gleaming tide]

sheeeeit. was reluctant to go to labs. but buddies have been wanting me to go with them

Ive been saving cards ive been getting of scavs

[gray moth]

good luck and get some lube

[abstract harness]

looks like ur gonna need to for intel 3 lol

look out for the mcc as well its another labs only item for solar power

[gleaming tide]

for sure. SOlar was the lsat one tonight I was gonn alook at

but I dont make PK requirement

so later.

[gleaming tide]

Ive been in like 3 labs runs a few weeks ago. Was terrible. Died, didnt get to see anything. definteally not a first time experience

[gray moth]

@gleaming tide my way of labs is to run super cheap sets that still kill things, loot something first thing i spawn to hopefuly find ledx and get some cash back. So far with 30% survival rate i was still making money.

[hoary falcon]

labs budget kits are pretty fun

[abstract harness]

dont bother with super good armor labs ppl usually run nothing but the best

[gleaming tide]

IM NEW af so all i got is budget kits yo

[hoary falcon]

I would seriously suggest a video about the spawns for that item

labs is weird

[gleaming tide]

ILL DEF LOOK ONE UP

[abstract harness]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDiOo17AqEo

[hoary falcon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0thUtOYpZ8M

[elfin elm]

check the offices, check keycards rooms

that's basically where they spawn most often

[hoary falcon]

the end of the gigabeef video has the best strat for each spawn

helped me out a lot

[elfin elm]

shame they're worth money too

if they made them like tank batteries, where they're ehavy and not worth too much money

but you need it for task/hideout

people would leave them behind more

and you could just hide till everybody leaves

[gleaming tide]

are tehre raiders or bosses on ground zero rn?

was scaving some scav said soemthing aggressive in rus and ten I started etting shot by everyone

[abstract harness]

kollontay can spawn on gz lvl 20+ queue

[gleaming tide]

dam I should have looked at him

all the scavs just started shooting me

[abstract harness]

if u dont have 6.0 rep just being around them brands u as a traitor scav

so ur just dead

it sucks

[gleaming tide]

this guy is jus twalking around teh streets cursing scav palyers

fuck that guy

bruh really?

[torpid chasm]

💀 theres no point really this late into wipe

[gleaming tide]

Is that 80 hour timer really enhancing my gamepaly experience

this my first wip e so i odn tknow wha tit does

[hoary falcon]

scav case is great

gambol good

[gleaming tide]

my scav loot before I guess I got branded

[hoary falcon]

rip

[gleaming tide]

bro that rig in the backpack had like 10 oat flakes in it

im so mad

barrel lenght on a shotty makes much less differecne if you usin gslug correct?

[hoary falcon]

slugs suck unless it's ap-20

if you want to be accurate use a rifle

[gleaming tide]

I got 2 quests ima try to do in one go

you figure em out XD

[hoary falcon]

Oh i gotchu

repair the gun

[gleaming tide]

lol for sure

[hoary falcon]

that messes with the accuracy

[gleaming tide]

shits gonna jam first shot and gonna get some scav love

dam who woul dhave thought a stack of 20x 50 cals woudl be heavy

What a monster

road to customs?

[hoary falcon]

ya

[gleaming tide]

ty

gun runs great lol dont have the AP but ghetto 50 is pretty neat

[cinder field]

What quest are you doing? @gleaming tide

[gleaming tide]

blowing up scavs as an officer of peace

[hoary falcon]

can you not guess lmao

[cinder field]

Ah lol

Didn't saw the screenshit with the untar gear

[hoary falcon]

prob also the scav headshots with a shotgun

[cinder field]

Yea

I'm glad I'm already done with that stuff

[gleaming tide]

I feel like body shots put them donw prety reliabley somteims

coming prepared this teim

crack that beer and my final form

[bold kernel]

factory is unplayable for me man, every raid i immediately die to a headshot from a level 50+ guy

[hoary falcon]

factory is a pvp meat grinder

[gleaming tide]

Ya like I thought it would be a beginner map but naw

go ground zero

[bold kernel]

this game is definitely not beginner friendly

[gleaming tide]

its pretty dead and level locked

also I think it has a great assortment of loot

[bold kernel]

the factory issue and my pc being dogshit are my only problems, i have to restart the game after every raid or it wont let me connect

[gleaming tide]

uhh would def look into upgradin gyour pc.

[hoary falcon]

more ram is pretty cheap

[gleaming tide]

ram is cheap

[bold kernel]

im still in school so im workin on it

[gleaming tide]

bout to pick up that CPU from microcenter soon

got good bundel for 500

I dumb

i forget optic or suppressor

[cinder field]

Well that's not good lol

Lucky you spanwed at path

[bold kernel]

how many hours yall got and what level?

[cinder field]

In pvp or pve?

In pvp I was like 35 with 400h and in pve I'm 51 and idk how many hours. Need to check when I'm home

[hoary falcon]

pve is pretend tarkov

[bold kernel]

damn i only have 11 hours

[cinder field]

Pve is just more chill ngl. And I don't want to grind everything in tarkov just to die to cheaters and rats again

[cinder field]

You will learn the game. My tip is get a sherpa to learn the game

??sherpa

[red thistle]

Sherpas are players who help beginners study the main game features and improve their skills to survive the harsh Tarkov environment. This difficult and honorable task falls on the shoulders of the most friendly, patient, and, of course, experienced Tarkov citizens.

Sherpas are volunteers who dedicate their time not only by teaching others but also studying Tarkov themselves, adding to their knowledge of the game. Selfless aid to new players greatly contributes to the growth of the Escape from Tarkov community.
When teaching beginners, Sherpas rely on their preferences in the game: location, weapons, equipment, tactical moves, and their unique gaming experience.

[glad marsh]

How does one become Sherpa what is required

[edgy plover]

it's not worth it

[cinder field]

Everything is explained on the sherpa hub

[cinder field]

Using them or being one?

[glad marsh]

I’m pretty sure that I’m not good enough to be teaching anyone lol but I was just curious

[edgy plover]

Being one
Using one is pretty good end of wipe
Early wipe you wait like 2 weeks min to get a 1-2 hour session

[cinder field]

Yea. I used one for streets in like mid wipe once. Was a 2h session I waited 2 weeks but it was absolutely worth it

[edgy plover]

Yea for particular maps and stuff it's really nice
just hard to suggest for brand new players as they usually need quicker help

[cinder field]

Yea but the sherpas will take their time. And this is also what new players need

[edgy plover]

true, no reason not to schedule one
but there's usually people who like to sherpa in the lfg channel

[gleaming tide]

any idea what town this is?

[woeful spruce]

Shoreline the town in the far west of the map

Screenshot taken aproximately here

[bold kernel]

i got lucky and bought a kitted m4

[stiff cape]

looks like a raider m4

errr Rogue*

[fossil crater]

yeah its a roleplay build at best

[runic pewter]

can someone help me with my server region settings? I'm from the Netherlands and I keep having this issue since the beginning from when I bought EFT..

I have fiber connection at home but I use a wifi extender to then use a cable to connect it to my extender.. I've never encountered any similar issue with any other game besides Tarkov, on valorant or cs i get around 20ms but here its just all messed up.. Can someone help?

[pallid ruin]

whats the lowest ping you're getting if you sort by ping?

[runic pewter]

mostly 80 at europe east

[pallid ruin]

ngl it's the first time i've seen pings that high without any VPN or anything weird running

tbf 80 is more than playable

[zinc moat]

could try with VPN

[runic pewter]

it is but i have to play on eu east, but its also just why can't i just connect to the servers closest to me and arguably best

[zinc moat]

if routing is the problem it can potentially reduce ping

[pallid ruin]

doubt that'd make it any better, usually the default rooting is good enough and at most it will decrease it by a single intiger in most cases - in this case there seems to be some actual issue with the network

[zinc moat]

oof

[pallid ruin]

have you tried connecting without the extender for troubleshooting purposes? that could be one of the reasons, extenders by default introduce more latency as it has to receive and re-transmit

it's weird that it only happens in tarkov but it wouldnt hurt to try it just to troubleshoot

[runic pewter]

to my PC no, because i have no cable that can extend all the way downstairs.. But i've tried it on my laptop with just wifi connection. On my laptop I could connect to the other europe servers with 50 ping

[pallid ruin]

and what about the laptop but being connected in the same way as your pc via the extender?

gotta try to eliminate every variable one by one, the most suspicious one rn is the extender, especially since the laptop without the extender doesnt have issues

if I was in your shoes i'd either bring the pc downstairs for testing purposes or try the laptop with the extender (preferably both)

[runic pewter]

I just tried it, and it gave me 24 ping on europe west. Laptop connected via the extender

[pallid ruin]

hm thats weird - then im assuming its an issue with your pc in this case? do you have any 3rd party firewall running / vpn / any downloads / anything that routes traffic anywhere?

[runic pewter]

No VPN no and no download either right now, this has been my issue since the i bought tarkov for the first time

[pallid ruin]

tbf since your laptop doesnt have those issues that means its most likely not the fault of tarkov nor your network provider, nor the wifi extender - when you tried the laptop did you try the same cable as the one you use for your pc? in strange cases the cable can be wonky

[runic pewter]

Yep I did, could it be vpn related? Even though my laptop has no vpn either

[pallid ruin]

nope, if anything having a vpn would be an issue - not having a vpn is the better choice

you could try using a vpn to reroute the traffic but there are no good free vpns for that so you'll need to pay, and even then theres a 99% chance that wont change a thing

gl since you dont have issues in other games, only in tarkov and only on this pc (not the laptop) I have no clue what the issue is - the most logical reason would be something is blocking the traffic / routing it somewhere where it shouldnt directly on your pc but if you have no vpn, nothing blocking anything, no 3rd party antivirus software that screws with the traffic I have no clue what else it could be

it could be your wan card but in that case you'd have issues in other games too

[oblique lichen]

when do i consider buying a money case

[leaden cove]

Either when you are rich af or run out of place to put your money ( wallets )

I bought mine at like 8mil i think

[oblique lichen]

i have 4 mil and im running out of wallets

[leaden cove]

What edition do you have ?
And do you have gear fear ?

[oblique lichen]

standard and not when im playing with my friends

[leaden cove]

Like a money case is 3x2
You can fit 6 wallets
Which ( if you leave 1 for GP dollar and euro )
Makes 5 wallets in which you can store 10 mil

So i wouldnt buy one in your situation you would just have more storage problems

Maybe think about selling armour but keep the plates if they are good

Or use good rigs for storage

[pallid ruin]

when it comes to storage and money cases, they aint worth it - there are better ways of storing your money and using up less cases (wallets + rig), money cases do look better though

[pallid ruin]

imo go for a money case when you're at a point of "i have enough money to not worry about wasting some for the money case"

one money case fits 24.5mil and takes 2x3

[leaden cove]

Yea thats the best point to buy one

[bitter tapir]

is there a limit on how many keycard holder you can put in a docs case?
because if there isnt you can fit 16 keycard holder, then insert 9 green keycards on each one and you can effectively store 1.5b in a docs case.

[leaden cove]

Mhhhhhh good questiob

Tarkov max money any% speedrun

[crude anvil]

really need those new graphics nikitty was talking about

[olive cape]

I need suggestions for cheap budget builds for late game if anyone's got anything

[teal depot]

What level traders do you have ?

[olive cape]

i kinda forgot and my updater is stuck at 74% if you can give me 3-4 hours i'll get you an answer

never mind it went back to 73% i think I'm going backwards

[abstract harness]

if u have pk4 then Aug with 56a1

[night junco]

Shotguns with nearly any ammo fuck to the face or legs. Mp-153 is cheap and spamable, just get the 8shell tube

[olive cape]

i love you

[olive cape]

i have pk2 is that enough?

[abstract harness]

shotguns got nerfed hella hard this wipe, wish they were better

[crude anvil]

svt

aks 74

[olive cape]

i love you

[night junco]

They’ve done me fine 🙂

[olive cape]

i actually used the svt it's awesome

[night junco]

Guess I’m lucky

[crude anvil]

akm

[abstract harness]

no, u need pk3 to get the rail and pk4 for any decent ammo

[crude anvil]

svd

[abstract harness]

Svt is prolly ur best bet

[olive cape]

what shells do you recommend? I useo go for bmg

[abstract harness]

Or sks with pp from the flea

[abstract harness]

They’re useable but not as good as they used to be

[crude anvil]

magnum/ flechette. everything else will fuck you over but is useable ig

[abstract harness]

Imo they should add flechette back to traders to make them viable again

[olive cape]

true that, let's start a petition

[night junco]

Any buckshot, my fave is the super performance slugs, I get the slugs off fence or scavs then just leg people

[olive cape]

you're the first one to say that

[abstract harness]

the thing is if ur using 50 bmg ur getting that off flea

and it only has like 30ish pen?

[olive cape]

what map do you play justgaming

[night junco]

Nice and cheap, sure you could get flechette or piranha but sp does me fine

[abstract harness]

so at that point might as well use an sks with pp or ps

[crude anvil]

never really liked flecchete , doesnt do enough damage in the right time, but the guy will probably die right after he kills you from the 60 different bleeds

[night junco]

A lot of customs

[olive cape]

do u do good at mid range or just close range?

[night junco]

The slugs give a 100+ accuracy I can killed at 38+ meters fine

[abstract harness]

Mag Buck works pretty well if u like toes

[olive cape]

mag buck sounds like a redneck american

[crude anvil]

and i use it for eyes usually

[night junco]

Works fine for me at decent ranges

[crude anvil]

1 pellet of 8 to hit the face and they ded

[abstract harness]

I don’t like slugs in shotguns

unless ur doing setup and have to or smth

[crude anvil]

slugs suck

only good slug is ftx cuz of speed

everything else is absolutely miserable to use

[night junco]

Found out I like the sp slugs fr by just bodying so many people with it as a scav, it’s a good time 😂

[olive cape]

yo justgaming

do you prefer going for heads or legs when you use ur shotty

with sperformance

[night junco]

Legs, but if I only have a headshot option you can hit it

The accuracy allows it

[olive cape]

got it got it

how many shots to the legs do you usually have to hit?

and like do you spam shoot or do you actually like wait between shots?

[teal depot]

Shoot me a dm brother

Like when it’s done

[olive cape]

i fixed it @teal depot

[teal depot]

Bettt

What level traders do you have ?

[olive cape]

but i kinda forgot to see my trader levels lol sorry

i'm loading into a game rn when i inevitably die i'll tell u

[night junco]

I spam bc it’s fun, but ab 6/5 hits and they drop

[olive cape]

damn 6/5 hits is wild

[night junco]

Straight legging

Maybe it’s less I don’t really count

I just empty my tube most the time

Unless I know that I really need to make my shots count, vs a team

I’ve got so many of the slugs idc

[olive cape]

alright i died

does he look legit? idk if 5k hours = 7kd even in this game

[night junco]

looks like a gamer

[olive cape]

looks like a gamer chair having mfer

@teal depot

[pallid ruin]

tbf at 5k hrs 7kd is doable if he kills a lot of scavs

[night junco]

real, plenty of people have 5+ kd legit

[teal depot]

Hmm okay okay. You can buy the sag ak right ?

[night junco]

tested to get a more accurate reading and it kills scavs 3-4 avg to stomach/legs

[olive cape]

sag ak? whas dat

[teal depot]

Look it up

Like in game

[olive cape]

oh the 545 ak

[teal depot]

It’s the semi auto

[olive cape]

ak-545* yeah

[teal depot]

With high ergo

[olive cape]

yeah i can get it

[teal depot]

Can you buy PP from traders ?

[olive cape]

pretty sure not

that's why i'm actively currently running US to interchange

[teal depot]

How far are you from max prapor?

[olive cape]

pretty far and not really willing to grind him

[teal depot]

Don’t you just need levels ?

[olive cape]

i'm basically burnt out from tarkov and just here to get some kills, aka die after magdumping a dude with class 9 armor

[teal depot]

Oh wait it’s 0.6 rep no ?

[olive cape]

idk

[teal depot]

Click on him and it will tell you

[teal depot]

How many hours do you have again ?

[olive cape]

like 800

i know what you're gonna say

people burn out after 6 years of playing the game and i barely broke 2 years so what

[teal depot]

Nono that’s not what I’m going to say 😂 shit I sometimes find it shit after a month but it’s aight

What kind of guns do you like ?

[olive cape]

the guns that can actually kill during latewipe and not deal 700 damage with 600 damage being absorbed by armor and 100 being dealt to body

sorry, i'm a bit salty rn lol

and ik it's not the guns that do the damage it's the bullets but i just had to get that off of my chest

[teal depot]

Nono I get it

[pallid ruin]

what level are you?

[olive cape]

32

[night junco]

r37f is great in p90 for legging to, its just as good as rip 9mm but 1/3rd cheaper a round with less fr than vector

[teal depot]

But like I don’t think you have access to any good ammo rn other that flesh rounds

[olive cape]

yeah ik i don't

[teal depot]

Do you mind flesh ?

[olive cape]

idm anything as long as it kills

[night junco]

r37f can kill tagilla in 12 shots consistently im p sure

[olive cape]

frick i might even resort to ratting

[olive cape]

i'll give it a shot, but isn't it like super expensive?

[teal depot]

You can buy 45 hydrashock right ?

[olive cape]

wait brb in a rai

[night junco]

400-600 a rounnd. cheap imo for what it can do

i buy when price is down

i got over 1k of it

[pallid ruin]

imo you should level up pk to lvl3, then do the quest to unlock m80 and with mechanic lvl3 (again, probably missing rep im guessing) you got an 8x weapon parts barter for the SA58 with a 50rnd mag

[night junco]

it sells below trader price on flea too alot. just gotta check it sometimes

[pallid ruin]

its mid budget but shreds

you can also craft sost ammo (its mid but does the job well enough) and run any 556 build, the aug is cheap but good enough

[teal depot]

45 hydrashock is also pretty fucking lethal and the ump is very cheap

Nobody is safe from it

[night junco]

rip the ump meta

[olive cape]

but filling the mags is super expensive isn't it? getting like 2 rounds of p90 is like around 150 rounds-ish no?

[night junco]

an era gone

[teal depot]

Fr 😭😭

[pallid ruin]

yep, gotta go leg meta tho

[teal depot]

It’s still fine but just not the shit no more

[night junco]

its 116k for 3 mags at current market price

[teal depot]

Yeah but it’s real cheap

[night junco]

that alot of kills

[olive cape]

that's a lot of damage

[teal depot]

He asked for budget kits that kills

Like that can kill in latewipe

[night junco]

ill give u mags with ammo if u want em idc

[olive cape]

nah it's good

i want something that's like reliable to get ig?

i can't rely on you to give me my mags every single time yk

[pallid ruin]

can anyone check how much m80 is? my internet went down so I cant check but im pretty sure its rather cheap

[night junco]

price reliably goes down on flea, just get some when it is, but i hear u

[olive cape]

it's cheap when u have pk3

[teal depot]

If you have the trader

Which is the harder part

[teal depot]

You don’t get it at pk3

[olive cape]

oh

[teal depot]

Or not hard but just like he doesn’t have it

[pallid ruin]

you need to do a quest to unlock it + have pk3

[olive cape]

even better

[pallid ruin]

tbf the pk quests arent that hard to do unless you have standard edition

in that case it can be a pain in the ass

[rich ridge]

Where is the best place to find fuel conditioner?

[pallid ruin]

aight lemme hop on my mobile data and see if I can make a cheap build

[olive cape]

i do indeed have the standard edition good sir

[pallid ruin]

interchange has a bunch, tbf there are many spawns on most maps

[pallid ruin]

damn

[rich ridge]

Where at?

[olive cape]

a recurring theme i found with escape from tarkov is: if you have a life and you don't spend a lot of money on a game, you will not be able to play at endwipe

[pallid ruin]

now that I think of it, on shoreline there is a bunch of spawns on the new area (top right of the map if the bottom is the ocean)

[rich ridge]

Would that be better?

[pallid ruin]

tbf most of my tarkov wipes were me joining at latewipe, I enjoyed going zero to hero lol

[pallid ruin]

i think so, give it a couple of runs

i def find at least one fuel con when i go there

[rich ridge]

Ok cause i only need 2 more for sew it good part 4

[olive cape]

how do you kill people? do you kill people?

[pallid ruin]

headshots, gotta get those head eyes + there is many people who dont run helmets because "why wear a helmet when i always get head-eyes anyway" lmao
ofc i dont get as many kills as i would if i joined early wipe but it can be fun

its harder nowadays tho, 7.62 ps ammo used to be my goto round in those cases as it was unlocked at lvl1 traders

now its moved to lvl3 i think?

and its not even that good anymore either

[topaz eagle]

who vcan play with me

[pallid ruin]

#pvp-lfg

[pallid ruin]

im logging onto pvp rn, imma see if i can figure out a cheap nice loadout

but tbf it depends on whats your definition of cheap

[olive cape]

doesn't cost more than 250k max

[pallid ruin]

just the gun + ammo? (ofc attachments etc.)

[wary wasp]

Lvl 17 here. I would like to get advice on money. How would you make millions? What map and what technique?

[olive cape]

just the gun, ammo will always be up in the 100k mark

[night junco]

lighthouse is my go to, if you can run it most people say streets

[pallid ruin]

Not dying as much, doing money runs (if you dont find them boring), getting bitcoin farm lvl2, playing smart

[wary wasp]

i am doing streets now

[night junco]

i get 500k-1m in 6-10min on lighthouse with a run ik

[wary wasp]

i have 16 million roubles

[pallid ruin]

oh then thats def doable in 250k range for the gun

[wary wasp]

is lighthouse dangerous?

like the most dangerous map in the game?

[pallid ruin]

yep, especially if you run bear

[wary wasp]

i am usec

[night junco]

im bear, i do fine 🙂

[pallid ruin]

im usec so I can call people rats

[wary wasp]

the rogue have higher agro range on bears i guess

[night junco]

ive not gotten shot at by then one time this wipe

just gotta move right

[wary wasp]

What are the rogues btw? like best ai in the game? i know raiders

[night junco]

they are similr to boss guards, so like mini bosses

[pallid ruin]

rogues auto agro bears, they dont auto agro usec unless you get too close / someone shoots at them

[pallid ruin]

this should be about 220k ish, as long as you dont mind running SOST ammo it will be good enough (prioritising ergo over recoil)

[olive cape]

where do you get the m4? just the stock one off of pk?

[pallid ruin]

iirc I ran this at around lvl2 traders

[pallid ruin]

either pk or market, depends where its cheaper atm

[olive cape]

alr i'll take a look

[pallid ruin]

you can also run the hk416

[olive cape]

i'm gonna run a crazy man crazy build rn

[pallid ruin]

with a really similar loadout - the hk416 has higher firerate

[night junco]

I buy a busted up Adar then an m4 receiver from mechanic, for nice cheap parts

[pallid ruin]

i mean that works too if you dont wanna mod it too much

[night junco]

Adar stock is slept on

[pallid ruin]

im not a fan of single tapping at close ranges

[night junco]

And you can always change of the guard rail and gas tube

[night junco]

That’s why u get the m4 part to get full auto

[pallid ruin]

holy shit why is sost 1.6k, last time i played it was 900rubles

wild

[pallid ruin]

well the craft is still cheap tho, for 100k you get 150 rounds so around 700 a round

[olive cape]

i miss the good old days

m856a1 for 1$ on pk2

[pallid ruin]

lmao yeah

[olive cape]

those were the times

when tarkov wasn't so shit and was still playable

[pallid ruin]

from what I can see you can also buy an mpx / silenced mp5 at pk lvl 2, you can run pst ammo and try to shred the armor / spray and pray for a headshot if you can aim (they're lasers) / run ap ammo if you have it unlocked - but tbf 250k leaves you a lot of budget for a weapon, you can build almost anything

the issue is the ammo here since you havent levelled up the traders enough

[night junco]

^Luger and quake maker also pretty affordable imo

[pallid ruin]

yep, either that or start perma crafting sost ammo until you unlock something better (you can also try 7.62x39 but imo it sucks this wipe, i cant get a hang of it)

[abstract harness]

7.62x39mm is the only caliber that has recoil this wipe

[night junco]

It’s in timeout, it was previously too good

[olive cape]

what do you suggest for a loud build?

if i were to remove the suppressor

[night junco]

Just like old 556 was, or nerfed 308

[night junco]

Jailbreak setup?

[pallid ruin]

tbf I basically never go loud, I dont think I touched a single weapon that wasnt silenced this wipe (3rd party is a pain in the ass when you shoot so its better to avoid it) but you could do the same build and just replace the silencer with something loud that has better stats (check in the editor)

my internet is on life support and my tarkov died because of it so i cant check lol

[abstract harness]

Loud 5.56 is not really a thing

[pallid ruin]

well not as loud as any 7.62 thats for sure

[abstract harness]

there isn’t a lot of decent loud muzzles for 5.56, your best bet is to use jailbrake muzzle on the sai handguard

[abstract harness]

7.62 has bmd

[pallid ruin]

ah just remembered, one of my fav ways to go early wipe was the .45 vector

[olive cape]

i'll try that out

[pallid ruin]

that shit shreds if you dont want to spend too much on a 9x19 one with bigger mags

[abstract harness]

I think 0.13/0.13.5 had the best ammo balance

[olive cape]

agreed

[pallid ruin]

(early wipe screenshot, thats why the cursed helmet), it looks good too so you get those drip perks in your aim

[olive cape]

lol

alright well, rn i'm looking forward to try out your m4, a ump with hydrashock, and the viper

then i'll probably leave this game and only touch it in 2-3 months

[pallid ruin]

vector* ye

[olive cape]

vector* idfk why i said viper i swear i'm not a valorant weirdo

[pallid ruin]

just remember to bring A LOT of mags for the vector, shit eats it like its strawberries

i usually being 4-5 spare mags

it has 1100rpm

[olive cape]

sure

alright time to die with this cool looking build, anyone wanna place bets on whether or not i last 5 minutes?

[pallid ruin]

lmao, repair ur armor btw

i hope u got lvl4 plates inside because if not its quick bye bye

[olive cape]

i do i do

[gleaming tide]

so what skill does healing in base level?

[pallid ruin]

also, if you didnt do the punisher questline all the way pk3 will let you buy a lvl3 ass puch - imo a good investment, buy a stim case and run some propital + sj6 + adrenaline, it can win you many fights

(punisher 6 unlocks a 2x4 asspouch, pk3 has 2x3) unless it was pk2? not sure

[night junco]

Sorta crazy to me that at your level you don’t play with an injector case, it makes pvp so different

[pallid ruin]

ye exactly my thought

[olive cape]

i'll look into it

[night junco]

Every single wipe as soon as I get 15, I’m a stim junkie

[olive cape]

i try not to be a drug addict, i barely can afford builds let alone stims

[night junco]

You’ll come out of so many more raids using stims

At least a 10% survival rate bonus if you use them right

[olive cape]

isn't it weird how that's the case?

[pallid ruin]

propital is about 30k i think? adrenaline around 20k iirc, theyre not that much and can save your ass and help you extract in many cases or even win fights

[night junco]

Not really I mean they are basically just potions effects from other games

It’s big

[pallid ruin]

i think an injector case is around 400k on the market rn, I paid 900k at the start of the wipe lol

def worth it tho

[abstract harness]

tbh you don’t need much more than bleed stim and Propital, imo green stim is a crutch and weight stims aren’t necessary

[abstract harness]

U can get one for free from out of curiosity

[pallid ruin]

yeah theres also that

injector case + docs / sicc case in the asspouch are a must have imo, keys + money and stims

[night junco]

I straight up rock 2 injector cases 😂 for them really crazy raids

[pallid ruin]

for a labs run I rock 2 as well

[abstract harness]

most labs players do so they can put stims from black in their butt

[teal depot]

Armor ?

[olive cape]

kirasa with monoclete

[abstract harness]

my case setup is docs, injectors, cms + splint, pks, and 2 stacks of bullets

[teal depot]

Yeah mo but the dura

[olive cape]

i fixed it

[pallid ruin]

also, at lavatory lvl3 you unlock an unlimited craft of lvl5 plates, so if you dont have it i suggest looking into it

1x lvl5 plate + other stuff as in and you get a rig with 2x plates as out

[abstract harness]

holy how do you use all of those???

Do u pop adrenaline every minute or smth?

Also why run l1

[pallid ruin]

mans running a field hospital for wounded scavs

[night junco]

90% of the time I don’t, but just in case, I also just use stims for pk rather than carrying one separate

When I think I’m gonna get into a fight I just move propital or adrenaline to hot bar, or use them on the fly

[abstract harness]

also adrenaline is kinda useless if u have so many Propital since Propital are just better

morphine/adrenaline in hotbar yeah

[night junco]

I like the fast quick healing on it

Rather than etg

[abstract harness]

I normally just pop ibuprofen all the time

[night junco]

I’ll etg if I rlly need it

[abstract harness]

bout the same as Propital
+1.5hp vs 1.0

[pallid ruin]

also, if you run a bigger rig I suggest looking into bringing nades - it can win some fights + you level up strength by throwing them (I always bring 6 myself)

[abstract harness]

I find that you never really need this I always just salewa my thorax /head and that works

just put 2 nades in ur pockets

[pallid ruin]

I usually run cheese for fast healing in my hotbar and bigger healing in my ass - different playstyles tho

[night junco]

4 a second

[abstract harness]

oh whoops

What’s etg then

[night junco]

Mini etg

[pallid ruin]

yeah adrenaline is fast af healing + it can sometimes help you if youre a bit overweight, i always take one with me

[night junco]

6.5

[pallid ruin]

and propital was what, 1 a second for 360sec or something? dont remember

[night junco]

ye

[pallid ruin]

o for 300 sec ye

[abstract harness]

I was thinking of blue blood that’s the one with +1.5

[pallid ruin]

ngl I dont think I ever brought blue blood with me

[night junco]

Blue blood+ adrenaline is the sauce in a bind

[pallid ruin]

just pop an odolbos and say your prayers

[gleaming tide]

hey since yal on the topic of injectors. What are the prefered entry injectors I should always bring?

[night junco]

Imo some combo of atleast one of each of these

Adrenaline for hp and pk, propital for long pk, blue blood for no bleeds

Sj12 for food, mule for big raids

[pallid ruin]

propital is a must have, adrenaline is a nice backup for a quick heal / small overweight status, sj6 is good to have for some long distance running (but that one aint that entry level with its cost)

[gleaming tide]

like both cases or either one?

[night junco]

You could start off with one case, the 2nd just has extra of the same stims

For myself

[pallid ruin]

i think hes asking which case shows the stims he should use

my internet is back up, lemme build a case of what imo is good entry level

[night junco]

In this case right side

If I could only have 1

[gleaming tide]

Is there a downgraded version of sj6?

[night junco]

3-btg

For stamina recovery

[pallid ruin]

yep

[night junco]

I carry one in my pockets for money runs

[pallid ruin]

adrenaline also gives +10 endurance so its an all rounder

[night junco]

Doesn’t last as long as the 3B 😦

I wish

[pallid ruin]

yep

[pallid ruin]

I usually run this

give or take I switch one with a different one sometimes or add 1 or 2

i usually leave 1-2 slots empty for stims i find on the way if im not running a stim run on labs

[gleaming tide]

SJ 1 is trash?

[pallid ruin]

it's alright, i personally dont use it so i cant say much tbf

[night junco]

It’s not awful, The bonuses are good but the minus hydration and recovery hurts a lot

3-b only does food as a negative

[pallid ruin]

yeah with stims you gotta watch out for your hydration and energy, its good to take some with you if you dont know where to find food items

[night junco]

Also sj12 can be clutch for this^

[pallid ruin]

ye

[gleaming tide]

aight what I had

[night junco]

Hell ye

[pallid ruin]

ngl I started hoarding stims recently, I use them less and less and I keep finding more

sitting on that morphine for when the addiction kicks in

[pallid ruin]

i ran something really similar early wipe - you def wont need 3x propital imo, 2 should suffice unless you stay for the whole raid and you get into multiple fights (propital lasts for almost 5 minutes)

[night junco]

Everyone’s different, I pop 3 in one raid often, but I don’t use a non stim pk typically

[pallid ruin]

ye tbf if you play safe and premed propital then you will indeed use up 3

ig its something he'll need to find out on his own, to find the balance of how many he uses

[night junco]

Ye, imo it’s worth the cost to get no hydration or food - from propital

I use enough stuff that drops that as is

[pallid ruin]

lmao

[night junco]

Also stomach blacks 😦

[pallid ruin]

yeah those suck

i usually just extract if i get my stomach blacked if my cms ran out, aint risking that awkward death because of lack of energy / hydration

[night junco]

That’s legit

[olive cape]

what's a good customs pvp spot that isn't dorms?

[night junco]

Crackhouse, fortress, construction, new gas, usec building

[pallid ruin]

^

[olive cape]

tyty

wait what's usec building?

[night junco]

I think it’s technically called warehouse six by the game

[olive cape]

ohh right

[pallid ruin]

watchout at the fortress tho, those guns on there aint no joke and can one tap your ass (watch out for the goons too)

[night junco]

But players call it you usec building, and there’s a key in there that’s like a Usec stash key

It’s got some decent loot in it, at least it used to

I got a gpu in green screen side of usec today

[olive cape]

oh nice

[pastel arch]

hello, happy friday, im new to the game (not new to FPS), looking for a group of people to play with tonight, im 28. Trying to play with people my age. Drink smoke kill people and have some fun. Im looking to play tonight around 630-7pm till midnight. let me know if you are intrested.

[wary wasp]

Hello everyone, Do you guys know the key: Rusted bloody key. What is the spawnrate of that key in the streets map. In the mall.

[gleaming tide]

does healing still give exp and if so what skill doe sit levle?

[night junco]

I think the only skill that levels by healing is surgery, and that has its own skill. When maxed you can perform surgery way faster. Taking damage levels the vitality skill, 25% of the xp that goes to vitality is given to the health skill

You’re also just getting general character XP when doing all of those things

[wary wasp]

Are loot spawns tied to the amount of players are in the match. Like night raiders have less people, so less loot spawns in the map (like keys)

[night junco]

I’ve have never seen concrete evidence that this exist, nor have I heard the devs say it

Tho I have heard players talk about it, it’s my understanding that it’s just antitotal

[stark arch]

Is it worth taking a grizzly on raid in my gamma stash ?

or im better off taking all the separate supplies

[night junco]

Grizzlies are slower than the individual items. If you wanna prioritize speed don’t use a grizzly

It’s preference

[abstract harness]

grizzly is good to put in gamma early wipe

[night junco]

^

[abstract harness]

basically just all in one healing

[stark arch]

ill take it then

its not early wipe tho

[gleaming tide]

you can animation cancel the grizz tho

and it heals more per tick
