[stiff cape]

theres def several spawns in the game where you either gun it asap and hope someone isnt lookin or has a good shot, or ya wait for a minute until ppl would move on

[undone drum]

whats that?

[serene hatch]

i cant with this shit bro, 3 headshots to the face he walks away fine, 1 headshot to me and im dropped

GREAT GAME

17k m856a1 maybe?

rage bait

id rather people not duplicate 36k m856a1

💀

no way youre that dense

36k m856a1 at 900 a piece is 35 mil to buy it all

no ones buying that much 856a1 to sell it back for 950 where no ones gonna buy it

[slender dew]

have you seen the recent things involving duping? It does seem like a real a$$ things based on what I have watched and also seen on the flea this wipe

[edgy blade]

What skill can you boost with injectors to combat the effects of this armor?

[slender dew]

mostly, yes.. I have seen some weird occurances even on pvp however, not at the occurance stats of pve but I have seen some sketchy stuff.

[tidal lagoon]

just gonna be strength and endurance mainly

[edgy blade]

thank you!

[tidal lagoon]

could try meldonin, lasts for 15min but u need to bring extra food/water

[edgy blade]

okay cool, my plan is to be in factory. its for the good times part 1. so shouldnt be in there long

[warm summit]

shit bsg

[violet adder]

you just posted this bro

[warm summit]

battleye needa be sued for how shit their anticheat is

[warm summit]

yeah cause its fuckin dumb

[violet adder]

what you think we can do?

[warm summit]

sue battleye

[tidal lagoon]

done

[warm summit]

thanks

[tidal lagoon]

np

[violet adder]

i think battleye does a good job

[warm summit]

stfu

battleye is the shttiest anticheat known

[violet adder]

no 🙂

battleye very good at banning cheaters

[warm summit]

any person that knows bout anticheats know BE is terrible

[warm summit]

LOL u believe that?

[violet adder]

i know more than you do

[warm summit]

u dont cause u would know BE has always been terrible

[violet adder]

okay but i do know more than you do

[warm summit]

u dont

trust u rly dont

[violet adder]

trust i do

[warm summit]

its so easy for cheaters to evade BE its not even funny

easy anticheat and BE are on the same scale

[violet adder]

no it isnt easy

[warm summit]

biggest troll

shouldnt seen when yo name was Kwondingle

yeah but BE is very ez

all u gotta do is reset ur windows

they need a anticheat like vanguard

they dont do enough

[violet adder]

this guy doesnt know what he is talking about LOL!!!

[warm summit]

kernel is needed for tarkov

duh like dma

but reduces the amount of people cheatin

they need vanguard

[violet adder]

nah

[warm summit]

BE is software based

Vanguard is hardware based

[violet adder]

bro

[warm summit]

bro nun its the truth lmao

tell me u didnt do ur research

[violet adder]

i literally just googled it

[warm summit]

google is a thing btw

never said that

but its better than just resetin windows everytime

then the cheaters needa put up more money for spoofers and etc

not much people cheat on val cause it cost alot of money and theirs a high chance u get banned

not all

[rustic void]

I have a question
Which map would you go to to make money as a scav(no rogue / pmc fighting)?
So far I tried
Streets - a lot of loot places and spawns, good density, not much rare spawns ( gpu,btw,leded, etc)
Lighthouse chalet/village - good for rare spawns, bad for general loot, if no rare loot - very little money
Woods - average loot very spread out,
Reserve - only good at the start of the wipe or as pmc with keys
So far I am thinking streets, but maybe you would change my mind.

[warm summit]

good cheats yeah

[violet adder]

streets

[warm summit]

good cheats arent cheap lol

[slender dew]

quite expensive in fact

[warm summit]

yeah

a dollar HW spoofer is prolly terrible

never seen anyone sell a dollar hw spoofer

LOL

[indigo kayak]

so waht your saying is you buy hacks?

[warm summit]

pls send me the link to that cause that isn't a thing

[indigo kayak]

report this guy rn

[warm summit]

?do yk what a spoofer is

[indigo kayak]

your mom

[warm summit]

haha so funny

grab a noose

[violet adder]

a what?

goose?

[indigo kayak]

reported for death threats

[warm summit]

what death threat?

[edgy blade]

Are you guys okay? Like what the heck is going on in here.

[violet adder]

someone lost their goose or something

[edgy blade]

Take it to DMs you guys both sound petty

[slender dew]

for real...

[upbeat widget]

guys is the quest secure perimeter office kills in factory bugged i killed multiple pmcs on 3 floor office and in stairs and it didnt count im i doing something wrong ?

[slender dew]

were you in the office area or did you kill people who were in there?

[upbeat widget]

i was in the office

[slender dew]

hmm....weird

[upbeat widget]

it also happend to my brother where he killed pcms on stairs from stairs and didnt cout and for me it i killed in office and it didnt count

it should count on all 3 floors and staris from what i remember last wipe

but its not for some reason

[slender dew]

seems maybe they changed it (possibly IDK) from the whole ass area to not stairs as the stairs are the usual dying places maybe

[mint dawn]

how do i claim my daily quest rewards in arena?

[abstract harness]

automatically put in your arena stash, go to services on the trader page

[mint dawn]

thank you sir o7

[edgy blade]

Wheres everyone had the most luck finding cultists?

I've read the wiki page i just wanna know if anyone had more luck some places more than others

[abstract harness]

spawn chances are on wiki as youve already seen, any other evidence will just be ancedotal
dont think theres a specific pattern you just gotta get lucky

[edgy blade]

Got it!

[abstract harness]

gl man

[edgy blade]

Appreciate it brother

[radiant swan]

Is there anything negative about having the bipod out?

[orchid vigil]

do longer crafts level up hideout management better or is it better to just get quicker completions?

oh so there's no increased xp benefit to longer crafts? i was hoping longer ones would give larger chunks for the time it takes. I.E. a graphics card built on intel 3 as compared to something shorter like flashdrives, etc

Practical skill

[orchid vigil]

ooh! helpful! thanks!

oooh so changing my crafts also helps with the craft skill? o-o that's news to me

[faint minnow]

Anyone tryin to help a newbie homie do the marathon? lol

[amber lava]

tarkov keeps breaking my discord mic whenever i launch the game. Is there a fix for this?

[clever anvil]

any newbies wanna duo?

[orchid dagger]

What is the earliest time you can leave factory with the "survived status"? iirc its less than 7mins because the factory timer is only 20

[slender dew]

7 minutes into raid, not 7 minutes left in raid

[orchid dagger]

yea i know that

[slender dew]

7 minutes into raid on day, 5 on night to my knowledge at least as of last wipe unless something changed

[orchid dagger]

ooh okay thanks 🙂

[slender dew]

so if the timer starts at 20, and you know it's 7 minutes into raid then 13 minutes left in raid is your answer

[edgy blade]

Whats the best budget suppressor setup for the mutant? (PvE)

[nova sentinel]

anyone know whats going on ive been trying to connect to a pmc raid in shoreline for past 3 days and always it kicks me out between creating loot pools and awaiting session start

i have tried to connect literally over 20 times and gotten into 3 raids

[stiff cape]

does your computer suck?

[nova sentinel]

no i think i wouldnt have been able to play this game for the past 5 wipes

[stiff cape]

i mean, some ppl cant play outside factory, customs

so, thats why I asked, context helps

[slender dew]

perchance it changed since last wipe but last I can say there was a difference between day and night

[stiff cape]

try verifying integity/clear cache, all the standard stuff

shoreline isnt typically a huge stressor esp if youve played it but they also did expand it a little

[nova sentinel]

yeah shoreline runs very well for me and always has but for some reason now it doesnt want to make me connect anymore

[stiff cape]

outside that I havent heard of any one offs for ppl this wipe running shoreline

try diff servers

[nova sentinel]

i tried changing servers didnt do anything

i will try to tinker wifi settings and stuff

[slender dew]

could be

[stiff cape]

maybe #community-support can help dig deeper or has insight

[nova sentinel]

i will try thanks

[fervent raft]

There is a bug i know tigz the streamer has it aswell

Idk what causes it tho

This wipe has had the most bugs ive ever seen in tarkov tbh

[edgy blade]

Is the mutant still goated for 7.62?

[fervent raft]

Yes

[stiff cape]

only if you cant handle AKM

💅

[edgy blade]

Is there a good video for builds somewhere?

[edgy blade]

ive been using nothing but the AKM tbh but switched over to the 104 recently

[fervent raft]

Oh idk Its not that bad to build a mutant

[stiff cape]

104? wtf?

blocked

[edgy blade]

why?

[fervent raft]

Long barrel, qdc sup, split or rsass handguard, se5, Moe Stock and are buffertube

[edgy blade]

appreciate it!!

[fervent raft]

Np

[edgy blade]

would you mind explaining about 104 < AKM?

[stiff cape]

sure, the 104 is ugly

🫡

[edgy blade]

Understandable lol. Is that the only reason?

[stiff cape]

pretty much

noone runs the 104, do with that what ya will

[edgy blade]

Oh okay cause i thougt stats were better on the 104

But that was just half messing around with each of the builds i dont really know

[fervent raft]

Never seen anyone run 104 before

Is it decent?

[edgy blade]

I mean i've been doing well with it i feel

[fervent raft]

Ill try it

[edgy blade]

I have to double check my stash later but pretty sure i have lower recoil on it than my akm with same parts built around

[fervent raft]

Akm takes zhukov Stock and like Troy handguard

Which are really strong attachements

[edgy blade]

Good point i forgot about the zhukov

i think i was using pt-1 and buttstock

[fervent raft]

Everyone does

Its the best Stock in game tho

[edgy blade]

Thanks for reminding me!

[fervent raft]

Np

[edgy blade]

Back to the game after a long hiatus to just enjoy PvE

[fervent raft]

Have fun man

[edgy blade]

Thanks bro you too

You may find a list of wipe dates here. This may give you an idea of the upcoming wipe, or just satisfy your curiosity! #general-chat message

[proven igloo]

any1 know a good cpu i can upgrade to i got a 4060 + 13400F rn

[upbeat elk]

amd x3d variants

[proven igloo]

i dont know anything about amd really can u advice a specific one

[upbeat elk]

Well, since you would need to switch motherboards anyways, 7800x3d is considered the best gaming cpu atm

and for tarkov specifically, its amazing

[proven igloo]

ah well im not looking to switch motherboards, i think 13400F is decent but i just wanted to know if there was something i could switch up with for even more fps

[upbeat elk]

Yeah, that switch would require you to change mb, probably ram, probably cpu cooler

[proven igloo]

U have any idea where i don't need to do that?

[upbeat elk]

Idk about intel, they suck

[proven igloo]

ah okay, well im ordering more ram tmrw atleast, but i thought i would look into a cpu anyways, its not like i need it but was curious regardless

[upbeat elk]

Do some research on google, shouldnt be too difficult to find an upgrade.

[proven igloo]

Alr will do that

[upbeat elk]

Just keep in mind, if you do find an upgrade. Check what motherboards support it and make sure you have that

As new generation CPUs have different sockets

[fervent raft]

13700 or 13900 would run better

By quite a lot

But you have to check up what fps people get with those

[proven igloo]

do u know about the i5 14600K i just had a look at that, should be very good

[fervent raft]

Ever since amd made x3d i stopped looking at intel

So Im not the right one to ask

[fervent raft]

Usually people make videos where they check Their fps in tarkov with different cpus

[proven igloo]

Ah

[fervent raft]

Try and check on YouTube or Google

[upbeat elk]

Ive stopped looking at intel when i got 3600x years ago

[fervent raft]

Lmao

[upbeat elk]

then 5600x, now 7800x3d

[stiff cape]

i can run any map fine

[proven igloo]

thats an i7 and 9 right

[fervent raft]

Yep but mate really just check on YouTube

[stiff cape]

not sure if was said, but ensure youre getting 32gb of RAM as well

[fervent raft]

I know people say that the 14th gen is basically a overclocked 13th gen

With added e cores

Idk anything Else about the new intels

[edgy plover]

If you're gonna upgrade go x3d

[proven igloo]

for a 4060 it recommends, i5-14600K, Intel Core i7-14700K, Intel Core i5-13600K, AMD Ryzen 5 7600X, AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

[fervent raft]

Id recommend the same

7800x3d would be best

[edgy plover]

without a doubt

[fervent raft]

But you need to swap motherboard then

[dry coyote]

any good deagle rounds

[edgy plover]

You could even go 5800x3d if you want to keep using ddr4

[edgy plover]

just FMJ

[stiff cape]

^

[upbeat elk]

he said that he doesnt want to change mb

[edgy plover]

Yea that's just silly, if you're going for a total CPU upgrade, what's a new mobo?

5800x3d would let you keep your old ram at least

and you could get a much cheaper mobo

[upbeat elk]

I mean, depending on what he gets, but it can add up.

When i switched to AM5 i had to get everything new.

Ram, cooler, even ssd

[edgy plover]

Yea I'd understand not wanting to jump to am5

but almost certainly all his parts will still work with a 5800x3d

[proven igloo]

i dont want to get everything new tbh, only thing i will change is the ram which i order tmrw so i get 32 ram for tarkov, then im conidering the cpu but idk

[upbeat elk]

probably, ye

But ye, i didnt check first and when my cpu,mb,ram upgrade arrived, i noticed that my old cpu cooler doesnt fit. Ran to the store to get that one. Then i noticed that my old SATA ssd wasnt compatible and i needed to get nvme 😄

[ancient thorn]

what bosses or guards can have gzhel ?

[fervent raft]

Sanitar guards, kaban guards

Hmm

[stiff cape]

kollontay

guards

[fervent raft]

^

[stiff cape]

prob Glukhar as well

[fervent raft]

Maybe gluhar guards?

ye maybe i cant remember

[upbeat elk]

didnt rashala guards have it? or im trippin

[stiff cape]

most guards have a chance of nice armors

[fervent raft]

Ive gotten reshala a lot they wear dogshit

[stiff cape]

i dont remember reshala looting those guys is poop typically

[fervent raft]

Idk if Im unlucky.

[upbeat elk]

Could be a while ago or maybe im just wrong

[stiff cape]

just want my golden pistol

[fervent raft]

I think they used to be more kitted

[stiff cape]

for quest, most boring boss

[fervent raft]

You Can circle that one

[stiff cape]

[fervent raft]

Cultist circle

[stiff cape]

is there confirmed tech for cultists shit?

[fervent raft]

Ye ofc

One reshala figurine

[stiff cape]

ive ignored it since first week or so

[fervent raft]

Gives you the pistol

[stiff cape]

god damnit

[fervent raft]

Ive been forgetting to use it aswell

One killa gives the helmet aswell

[stiff cape]

i vendored figurines

we goofed

[fervent raft]

They are on flea tho

[stiff cape]

🧠

[fervent raft]

But yeah some of them have more value due to the cultist shit

[upbeat elk]

My man smeden is smart

[fervent raft]

Im actually quite braindead

[edgy plover]

You can only use each figurine sacrifice once too

[stiff cape]

does Killa give helm?

[fervent raft]

Yes

Only one figure tho

[fervent raft]

And you Can only do it one time

[stiff cape]

we did it

[fervent raft]

Ez

[stiff cape]

cool, ty sir

[fervent raft]

Np

[stiff cape]

good to know, aids tryin to get a killa sometimes with the farmers

other wipe I was mad dashing max stims as guy popd me lootn

[fervent raft]

Mate the only boss i didnt get item from was sthurman

And ofc he doesnt have a cultist tech

[stiff cape]

[fervent raft]

🫡

[edgy plover]

5 OP-SKS lmao

[fervent raft]

I cant 😂

Nomatter what i give that piece of shit circle

[stiff cape]

[fervent raft]

It gives me thrash back

[stiff cape]

i just did one earlier for first time in weeks, 4 mosins and some random attachment i left in it from last time

im sure ill get dankness

[fervent raft]

I put in 2 bitcoins and 3 ssd in hopes to get my last labs cards so i dont have to run for sanitar anymore, it gave me a green battery and a waffle suppressor

[stiff cape]

wya ?

[fervent raft]

What mate?

[stiff cape]

trophy case bonus

[fervent raft]

Im not sure mine is lvl 1

[stiff cape]

thats just level 2 with shit tags

[fervent raft]

I forgot it existed tbh

Almost 5% tho

I might have to upgrade it

Its pretty good

[stiff cape]

theres a third

[fervent raft]

Ye

Ill have to check mine tomorrow

[stiff cape]

not expensive overall

[fervent raft]

Its not bad

[upbeat elk]

I upgraded it to max last wipe immediately. Its not much, but in the long run, it helps with maxing skills

[fervent raft]

For sur e

[stiff cape]

my dumbass left for a week and said im not doin air filter

get back, immediatly upgrade and now waiting for it lol

[edgy blade]

Sorry to ping, does the low erg bother you?

[upbeat elk]

whats the ergo at with that build?

[edgy blade]

looking like 37.5

[upbeat elk]

It should be fine. Not perfect, but easily usable

[fervent raft]

I Think Its good

[edgy blade]

Cool beans!

[fervent raft]

You also put a gral pistol grip on?

[edgy blade]

Oop no i missed that, mustve not seen it

[upbeat elk]

That should boost it to 40+ then, which is already a good level

[edgy blade]

Oh, sick! Thanks guys

[fervent raft]

Np

[edgy blade]

anybody ever have a bug in the presets where youre trying to find parts and it gives you like half a list?

[fervent raft]

Its always a little scuffed

Also if the traders just reset

Some parts are missing and stuff

[edgy blade]

Copy that, thanks again! lol

[fervent raft]

Did you make it work?

Can i see the build btw? A picture

[edgy blade]

Sure! I only have this - cant get some of the parts rn cause traders arent high enough. People are charging like 400K for the barrel (PvE)

[fervent raft]

Ye the build is perfect

Its some High prices tho

[upbeat elk]

Change KAC QDC to QDC 762 muzzle

[fervent raft]

But i Think Its because stuff comes back in insurance every time that the parts are that expensive

Oh yes

[edgy blade]

im not AS concerned because Im PvE, I get almost everything back in insurance.

[fervent raft]

Trak is right

[edgy blade]

Yeah exactly

[fervent raft]

You have the wrong mussle

[edgy blade]

Okay will do!

[upbeat elk]

come arena

pls i need you

[fervent raft]

Has to be this

[fervent raft]

I cant bro Im not Home before tomorrow

Evening

[upbeat elk]

Insane

[fervent raft]

🫠

[short ether]

[finite sentinel]

no

[vagrant cargo]

WHY is the mp7 expensive now

[faint minnow]

New meta now ig

[edgy plover]

are people duping fmj sx down to cheap prices

[vagrant cargo]

oh shit fuck me

[floral gyro]

where do u guys recommend to look for ledx?

[edgy plover]

Ultra-med, 301, or woods usec camp table

ultra med best though

[floral gyro]

what about voron's key?

[edgy plover]

no

[floral gyro]

is this key even worth? not for ledxs but in general

[edgy plover]

no

[jagged laurel]

For tier 6 is not bad

[modest lake]

Anyone intrested in hitting resort shoreline with me

Lvl 15 I have 3 keys

[stiff cape]

they made ultra med great again, it blessed me last night 🙏

[floral gyro]

Just bought the Key

Im gonna try

[stiff cape]

nice gl

[indigo kayak]

im in skybridge room and ive searched literally every spawn and i cant find this guitar pick

[rancid birch]

can anyone help me with the quest to unlock ref

[indigo kayak]

which quest

[woeful halo]

Is it normal that the intelect skill is not levelling at all? It's still at absolute 0

[rancid birch]

its called easy money part 1, i have to go to the usec camp on woods and grab the poster (which is pretty easy) but when i go to plant the poster on customs, there is always someone camping fortress where i need to plant it@indigo kayak

[velvet egret]

Wait until very late in the raid

Fortress is a highly contested area of the map

[velvet egret]

It doesn’t visually render sometimes. You just gotta slowly sniff all the areas

[indigo kayak]

yea i did :/

[velvet egret]

On the bookshelf by the door I had to lay down to get it

[indigo kayak]

ah

[velvet egret]

Also the one on the laptop is very hard to grab for some reason. I hate that task

[indigo kayak]

i didnt try that

[velvet egret]

Just go slow and duck and lay down etc and search a lot

[rancid birch]

yea i know, its just been 3 times now that i spawn right next to 2 story dorms so i think i can run and plant it real quick but someone will literally be sitting in the room with the beds waiting in there its pretty annoying

[velvet egret]

You cannot plant it real quick

[rancid birch]

30 sec right

[velvet egret]

It’s like the first spot people go if they spawn nearby

[rancid birch]

ah i got you

[velvet egret]

Unless you spawn at old gas you won’t be first there

[rancid birch]

ok good to know thanks

[velvet egret]

It’s bc people farm reshala and goons there

Also decent loot

[velvet egret]

Try night time

Can backfire tho because cultists can spawn there lol

[rancid birch]

yeah ill give that a go its worth a try

[lean ingot]

Im lvl 15 and got almost 2 Million ruebles , how can i upgrade my storage cheaply ? Containers ?

[edgy plover]

storage is the most expensive thing in the game

[indigo kayak]

containers or if u dont have EOD upgrade ur stash

[lean ingot]

Like which

[edgy plover]

Lucky scav box, ammo case, mag case, med case, stash upgrade, etc

[lean ingot]

Are they on the flea market ?

[edgy plover]

depends on what you have a lot of

[lean ingot]

I dont wanna spend 2.5 mil on the stash upgrade lol

[indigo kayak]

depends on what ur tryna store

[edgy plover]

1 mil on lucky scav box is prob best, but only if you have loads of barter items

if not, then ammo case is usually next best

slim field bag or medcase for meds is great

stay away from weapon and item cases

[grand sandal]

anyone wanna help out just bought the game

[edgy plover]

watched any guides

[grand sandal]

i watched a few its all just a bit confusing at the moment

[indigo kayak]

if ur learning the maps and have 2 monitors put map genie on the other screen

[grand sandal]

ok

[lean ingot]

Can that only store barter items ?

[edgy plover]

Yes

[edgy plover]

Accept all your tasks, Start in Ground Zero,
Mapgenie will look cluttered at first. Hit "Hide All" on the left-hand toolbar, then scroll down and only toggle on "Extractions" and "Locations". That'll give you a pretty good look - feel free to toggle on some loot options as you go
https://reemr.se/ - these maps are great too and work for those locked behind a paywall like ground zero

Head into a practice mode on one of those maps, toggle on some AI scavs, and try to get a feel for the map, movement, gunplay, scav killing, etc.
When you're ready - try to scav into one of those maps and actually get some loot out.
Then you can take your PMC in and try to do some quests or loot or simply survive.
Good luck - you will die, try to have fun with it.

[edgy plover]

Once you've played a practice raid or two, and extracted as a scav, feel free to hit me up and I'll help out from there.

[grand sandal]

ok

[lean ingot]

What stash upgrade is available for purchase on the website v

[edgy plover]

you can just buy stash lines

And each edition upgrade comes with 1 extra level of the stash in the hideout

[chilly reef]

Would anyone like to play and show me the ropes/ help me unlock the flea market?

[edgy blade]

how would you even get a Kiba Arms Steel ballistic plate?

[edgy plover]

craft, find in kiba, find in hideout room

[grand sandal]

how do you go into a practice one shep

[edgy plover]

main menu - escape from tarkov - PMC - choose map and daytime - enable practice mode (click gear to customize settings - good to go

[grand sandal]

ok will try it now

[lean ingot]

Bet i just bought 28 lines

[edgy plover]

you lose nothing in practice raids but you can't gain anything either

[grand sandal]

ok

[slender dew]

if you want me to show you how in a voice channel so you can see, am happy to

[edgy plover]

other than practice ofc

[grand sandal]

im going into one now but voice channel would be good to get to know stuff

[slender dew]

I'll be on for a bit, just let me know, happy to hop on with you

[grand sandal]

would be great if you could

im down whenever

[lean ingot]

Why cant some backpacks be sold on the flea market ?!?!

Paratus

G2 gunslinger

2

[stiff cape]

cause BSG doesnt want ya to

[edgy blade]

weird, didnt see a craft on the wiki page

[edgy plover]

I think it’s the baggarly craft

[edgy blade]

oh you gotta make the whole armor?

i just found the plates in my slick carrier

[obtuse wolf]

booting up arena just reset my profile completely to a lvl 1 usec from bear? glad i wasn't far in yet but that sucks

wrong chat sorry

[brazen swift]

what lab card do i need for the injector room?

[abstract harness]

black

[slender dew]

blackkkkyyyy

[serene hatch]

whats the easiest way out of reserve if im 60 kilos and far af from d2 and need to keep my bag and no red rebel

[south tapir]

train

[vital oasis]

is yellow worth hittinmg on labs?

[umbral widget]

is chek 13 worth using?

[bold kernel]

can someone help me download the game? its currently stuck on calculating time in the launcher and it wont download, pls help me💀

[south tapir]

no, black is the only real moneymaker rn

not to say the loot is bad but the risk outweighs what you get mostly

[south tapir]

that one got gutted this wipe, if you're gunning for marked keys id take dorms

[bold kernel]

why game no work

[abstract harness]

black got gutted too all of the cards just suck rn

yellow is actually fine since its so cheap

[south tapir]

i just never find it worth running over there, always find more people at yellow than black

[vital oasis]

i have 2, probably just sell i guess

[south tapir]

idk why they made the cards 10 uses

[vital oasis]

really? every time i ran black last wipe youre fighting like 10 people

is it less contested now?

i need to finish samples

[abstract harness]

i dont know either man

[south tapir]

ALL of them are because people would rather fight and go after other loot spawns after they made the cards so much less worth

legit i get better stuff with less risk out of reserve and dorms keys

[abstract harness]

ive heard labs loot got nuked this wipe

[south tapir]

yeah it did

you can still find everything there but it got knocked down a peg this wipe

idk why

its labs

that's like, its whole thing

pay to play

[stiff cape]

gonna assume just early wipe loot drops, i still see ppl get a good bit

also uses for keycards make sense, infinite was kinda silly esp if could resell now

no other map has infinite use keys

[undone kestrel]

anyone wanna group up and help me run quests? pretty new and dont know what im doing very much

Wym

[jagged oracle]

[snow aurora]

Yeah they’re usually locked behind other quests

You can use the wiki to see what each quest leads to and what it unlocks

[jagged oracle]

alr

[pure compass]

is arena down

[undone kestrel]

what is the best maps to learn first? ive been playing ground zero and have an ok knowledge of it but thats it

[quartz bridge]

Factory is a nice easy map to learn.

[hoary falcon]

follow your tasks

[fervent raft]

Woods or customs

Dont go factory

[chrome ibex]

lighthouse and interchange are good too, a little less timmy friendly but it can be worth it sometimes

[fervent raft]

Well if he wants to progres on tasks Its naturally Woods and customs

[pulsar hamlet]

hey. Im not having any fps problems but when I open a scope, I get 0.2 seconds fps drops and my screen glitches. Is there any fix for it anybody know?

[fervent raft]

Its double rendering

[upbeat elk]

Scopes with zooms (lpvo) use double rendering, which significantly impacts performance. Its just how the game is coded. Most likely your PC is not strong enough and gets a lag spike whenever you scope in

[pulsar hamlet]

one guy told me its the far clouds that renders again so If your cloud quality setting is low, try medium or high. Imma check that. Im playing the game 100-140 fps avg. and fluid

[upbeat elk]

Could be, its always good to check random settings and see if that impacts anything.

100-140fps sounds good enough for you to not have double render lag spikes.

Whats your ram?

[pallid ruin]

fun fact, you can see the double render when you go prone in grass - you will see through grass through the scope (the one between your face and scope) but you will still see grass outside of it

[fervent raft]

Try clouds on High, it gave me better fps just when it came out

I havent checked recently

[pulsar hamlet]

32gb ddr4 3200

[pulsar hamlet]

can you guys recommend a micro sight or 1x sight for cheap?

[fervent raft]

Whats cheap for you?

[pulsar hamlet]

Im asking for budget 1x sight for decent clear vision and nice dot. I can buy good ones for 50k so im asking for 15-25k

[fervent raft]

I Think the deltapoint is around that Price

Its clear

Theres also the fastfire 3

[woeful spruce]

Deltapoint is probably my favourite but ampoint t1 is also worth considering, it probably has the crispest dot of tge micro sights

[prime comet]

mrs?

[pulsar hamlet]

mrs is blurry dot I dont like it

ty for suggestions I will try them out 🙂

[fervent raft]

Try fastfire 3

Probably the best reflex

[prime comet]

tiny lil reflex

[pulsar hamlet]

before reading your messages, I tried few of them on my gun and decided to try out fastfire 3. and checked discord. you said fastfire 3 lol

[proper kiln]

hey so im having a hard time with getting ref

[stone dagger]

whats the cheapest helmet that can attach nightvision?

[fervent raft]

The ratnik i Think?

[stone dagger]

i am trying to do linked search on ratnik but it shows laser lights and flash lights 😛

[prime comet]

you need the dovetail mount

pnv-10t nvgs i think

it'll be a monocular at low level

[stone dagger]

thanks, so i added that mount to the helmet. then i do a linked search on dovetail mount and still dont see nvgs.

i know you told me pnv-10t but i am trying to learn to fish

[prime comet]

the mount will link you to another part for said mount

then the nvgs will go on that

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/AN/PVS-14_night_vision_monocular i goit the wrong one anyway

the one i mentioned goes with a strap, and not on a helmet

[stone dagger]

umm thanks. so what i have is

1. ratnik-bsh helmet
2. daniel defense 25mm ring mount
3. pnv-10t dovetail adapter
4. pnv-10t nvg.

it seems the ring mount is wrong?

[prime comet]

yeah you dont need the ring mount

thats for flashlights

[remote kettle]

norotos titanium something instead of the 25mm ring

[prime comet]

i cant remember what has to go on before the adapter

[fervent raft]

Ye theres one more step to it

One second

[stone dagger]

so what would pvn-10t (adapter+nvg) go on

[remote kettle]

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

[prime comet]

^^

i couldnt remember for the life of me

[fervent raft]

Exactly

[prime comet]

i dont do night raids often, when i do i used quad nogs

[fervent raft]

Nobody Can geller

[remote kettle]

my random detail knowledge of EFT is autism level

[fervent raft]

Its crazy you have to do so much to get nvgs on

[stone dagger]

ayy it works! thanks folks

i go die to rouges now

[prime comet]

that's why i just use quads

you slap them straight on

[fervent raft]

Exactly

[prime comet]

[fervent raft]

They are dirty cheap this wipe

1 rfid

[stone dagger]

i just want the cheapest night vision, dont care about protection. which one would you recommend?

[prime comet]

how much are quad nogs?

[remote kettle]

im 1 quest off

[fervent raft]

100k but requires skier lvl 4 i Think

[remote kettle]

skier 4 has a barter for 1 rfid

[fervent raft]

I doubt he has that

[prime comet]

L3Harris GPNVG-18

check price on them

if you can

[remote kettle]

not on flea

[prime comet]

good barter tbh

[remote kettle]

pks buy is around 220k rub, same with the moonshine barter

[fervent raft]

Very

[remote kettle]

skiers is the cheapest by far

[stone dagger]

i am going to lighthouse night vision with gornostay 😄

[hollow obsidian]

post fx and nvidia filters are so good that nvgs make u see worse during night time raids

[runic lantern]

How do we access the free to play access for Arena tomorrow. Will it just become available to download at the specified time ?

[unkempt egret]

Right click night vision -> linked search, then linked search the component that comes up

[jolly nebula]

can these be attached to a lvl 5 or 6 helmet? im getting blasted in the temple wearing lvl 3/4.. ive lost 2 pairs im on my last one and wont risk it again plz help meeeee

[remote kettle]

you can run fast mt/tc2000 series helmets with the slaap plate protecting top of head or a bastion with that armored plate to protect top and nape, although the bastion plate cant be bought

[fervent raft]

Its rare that helmets are gonna save you from that i wont Lie

[hushed field]

The monocle

[fervent raft]

Id rather be flashbanged for a whole raid than run the monocle

[woeful spruce]

The monocle is honestly pretty good. Very crisp visual and minimal grain. The fov is ass but id ratger run that than the pnv 10

For me nvg tierlist would be
Quadnods
Monocle
Pnv 10
Armasight

[serene hatch]

what’s a realistic estimate on how long it’ll take to get kappa?

[raw terrace]

Hey I’m very new to tarkov (like a week) and new to pc gaming in total (about a month in) anyone up for helping me with some missions? Mainly the marathon ones

[pure isle]

What should I sell this bad boy for?
All the ones on flea have no plates in

[thick spade]

remove the plates and sell it for the same price as flea

[pure isle]

What am I supposed to do with the plates then?

[thick spade]

put them in a plate carrier you want to use

[stiff cape]

dont focus on marathon tasks as a beginner, go through all the normal quest chains

[pastel glen]

Hello, when i open eft the game gets reALLY LAGGYH

[jolly nebula]

best 7.62x39 is BP right? and for 5.56x45 is m995? 5.45x39 is it PPBS, BS, or BP? 7.62x54R is it BS,SNB, or BT (tracer) 4.6X30 AP SX or FMJ SX, .45 ACP AP or FMJ. i know its alot but im trying to make a note doc to list what i should be looking for to make my life easier ... the ammo changes all the time so its hard to know whats good anymore

[upbeat elk]

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

Look out for rounds that have close to 35 dmg. Meaning that a lot of times you will not 1tap headshot someone, as either his helmet will eat a little bit of damage or damage drop off from range.

[jolly nebula]

thats what i used to get all that info but, is pen or damage better? like i understand no pen means i cant shoot through armor but do i sacrafice damage for more pen? or should i go for a good balance, like i know obvs for certain guns its either use this ammo or you aint killing anything... like m995,m993 i just get lost when it comes to bp etc

[wispy sphinx]

i'm bear and i put 3 of the highest level usec dogtags in my hall of fame but i'm not getting any buffs

[upbeat elk]

Most people will be using either tier 4 or tier 5 armor. So take that into account. Usually you want highest pen possible, only exceptions are what i mentioned above.

[wispy sphinx]

bp bt bs means good

[jolly nebula]

okay so ammo with enough pen for t5 but over say 40 damage to be safe

[wispy sphinx]

pp 7.62x39 atm best ammo for 7.62x39

most reliable that you can buy

[upbeat elk]

no

[jolly nebula]

no way bruh lol

[stone dagger]

can you craft 6B33 Ballistic plate (front) for ref task? i remember reading it somewhere you can but cant find it in lavatry

[wispy sphinx]

^^^^^^

[jolly nebula]

im lvl 44 and have max traders, just dont wanna buy shit ammo and waste money

[upbeat elk]

40ish pen is usually ok as well. You need to take into account that you cant really buy top tier ammo.

[wispy sphinx]

you're not gonna buy fucking bp any time soon are you now

if you think pp is fucking shit l2p bro

genuinely

[upbeat elk]

PP is ok, but craft BP

[umbral widget]

i cant decide on a weapon to use in reserve

[wispy sphinx]

i said most reliable that you can buy

[wispy sphinx]

mp7 goes nice

or val

any 9x39 tbh

ash 12 maybe

[upbeat elk]

Whatever is the best ammo you can get for the guns.

[wispy sphinx]

depends what you're doing

if your questing just bring mid

[upbeat elk]

You should always take best ammo you can

[umbral widget]

im planning on doin bunker 2, revision, disease history

i should probably go at night

[jolly nebula]

okay difference between mp7A1 over A2 ?

or is it just color ?

[upbeat elk]

One has built in grip, other you can put a grip yourself

[jolly nebula]

ahh i see, so for the scar H and L is it color or ?

[umbral widget]

ammo type

[upbeat elk]

caliber

[umbral widget]

one uses 762 one uses 556

[tardy crescent]

H is heavy so .308 L is light so 5.56

[jolly nebula]

i mean like theres 2 scar Ls...

besides color whats the diff

same with the H

[upbeat elk]

just color

i think

[jolly nebula]

smh, didnt know this was cod we got camos for our guns now tf

[upbeat elk]

camos is wild

[jolly nebula]

thought this is milsim maaaan

[upbeat elk]

ah yes, because irl guns are all the same color

[jolly nebula]

it would be nuts to see a diamond camo gun running around

and you shine a flashlight at it and it reflects the light

wild

[vague orchid]

is this a good sacrifice for the cultist circle since I got some THORS back in insruence?

[umbral latch]

What makes this thing cost so much? https://i.imgur.com/YrnR8QT.png

[fervent raft]

it looks nice and it has good recoil stats for a foregrip

[slender dew]

Scooter beat me to it

[slim crescent]

its meta for hipfiring, if you look at your 3rd finger it lines up perfectly with where your barrel is actually aimed at

[unborn coyote]

How long does it take to no longer be marked for death as a bear on lighthouse

[undone drum]

as a bear you are always attacked by rogues

as usec you have to not kill them for 3 raids

as scav - no rogue aggro transports from raid to raid

[undone drum]

Oh wow!

[umbral widget]

why the fuck does cultist circle sometimes come back with NOTHING

[ancient tartan]

my 4th gpu this wipe. tap in for the method

[unborn coyote]

From my understanding you mostly want to sacrifice figurines such as the reshala, cultist, scav or ryzie one

[umbral widget]

interchange looks like

[ancient tartan]

interchange scav goated

[orchid dagger]

as a scav on factory how long do i have to be in the raid to extract?

[undone drum]

20 min factory raid
run through - 7 min
extract at 0-12 min

[slender dew]

7 minutes into raid if you don't kill anyone

[ancient tartan]

can you get a runthrough as a scav tho?

[orchid dagger]

even as a scav? i thought it was less for scavs

[slender dew]

yes

[ancient tartan]

weird i didnt know that

[slender dew]

sometimes (especially depening on your scav rep) you can spawn in fairly early in raid

[umbral widget]

bruh

[jolly nebula]

is there a way to unbind a key ? like i wanna completely remove a keybind but even if i left click escape it doesnt work ?

ahh you set it to LMB then reset fire to LMB and it unbinds so stupid lol

[undone bison]

am I extremely lucky or what I just found two marked keys in two scav runs

https://i.imgur.com/0sKAW4s.jpeg

[serene hatch]

legit?

i got insta dropped by a headshot from god knows where

one bullet while i was moving and i dropped

[upbeat elk]

will you feel better if i say no?

[south tapir]

no

[serene hatch]

100 hours with a 12kd is legit?

[upbeat elk]

will you feel better if i say no?

[serene hatch]

id feel better with a real answer not the answer i want to hear

[upbeat elk]

Does it really matter? If u think he's cheating, report and go next

[vague orchid]

is 300-500k per raid a good amount of money?

[undone drum]

yeah

[undone drum]

scavs count into the kd too

[serene hatch]

also level 42 with 100 hours and a 62% survival rate

1200 kills

[umbral widget]

anyone know if non tarkov players can try arena this weekend?

[vale finch]

yo who wants to help a noob out im sick of getting lost

[indigo kayak]

for the pest control task do the scavs actually have be inside the building or can they be near the heli aswell?

[stiff cape]

inside

[fervent raft]

not near hele

but right outside building is okay

if you bait them by shooting you can get all in one raid this wipe

[stiff cape]

may aswell wait for them to funnel in, with how broken they are now anyways

[fervent raft]

with the new scav ai

[stiff cape]

but "close proximity" is like right outside anyways

made the quest super lame

[fervent raft]

its always been one of the worst tasks imo

[indigo kayak]

oof, i shot like 3 at the heli

[fervent raft]

why would you not check progression

after shooting one

thats a bit goofy imo

[indigo kayak]

i needed 4 more asw, last time i sat in the gpu room building with a machine gun and shot but none came

[indigo kayak]

i killed them all at once and then checked cus they all shot at me

[lost wasp]

this is the second fucking time i put 350k worth of shit in my circle and get nothing back is this a bug!?!?!?

[fervent raft]

happens to everyone now and then it seems like

[random ridge]

anyone had this issue? mate can't get out of a scav just constantly loads. He's done 3 restarts

[topaz trout]

What’s the best place to find morphine

[fervent raft]

woods medcamp and crackhouse

are two solid options

[lost wasp]

I swear they nerfed med spawns in crack i ran it 10x and found maybe 1 morphine

[fervent raft]

idk

i hate customs

its just a classic for morphine

[sullen violet]

impossible connexion a usite escapefromtarkov.com

[stiff cape]

craft

also tons of spawns on Streets if youre being gatekept from doing other quests

outside that look for loose med spawn areas

[fervent raft]

i think reserve cages would give them too

that might be a good option

[grizzled isle]

is there a way to choose what kind of voice lines you can get from on example clicking or double clicking F1, and are some voicelines locked behind which voice you choose

been trying to get the "Im going to kill every last one of you motherfuckers" voiceline to no avail

[raw oyster]

anyone on PVE about to go do Dragnet quest? 😛

[winter blade]

Is "every hunter knows this" required for kappa?

[topaz trout]

yea if you look it up on tarkov wiki it shows it

[raw oyster]

not sure on that voice line but if u double tap Y it shows the interface with voiceline options then u can bind the selected line to f1 or other thing

[grizzled isle]

thanks

[raw oyster]

no probs

[raw oyster]

you did Dragnet task yet? mb u prob play PVP dw about it 😛

[grizzled isle]

the what

[raw oyster]

ye nvm u prob play pvp anyway

[grizzled isle]

also there are no "agressive" voicelines

i play PvE

[raw oyster]

hmmm idk about the kill you all voiceline then :/

and i was wondering if u did the Factory Task called Dragnet yet 😛

[grizzled isle]

dont recall a task named that

im only lvl 24 rn tho

23

[raw oyster]

ah bet no big deal there then its later on.

u can add me im EU to if u need help i could tag along sometime maybe

[obsidian spoke]

yo i just saw a guy with a achievment that was something like UN

what is that?

[meager widget]

can someone on EU run labs with me, I've never done it before looking to do it once with a experienced player, I am willing to bring the gear for you too.

[raw oyster]

Semi experienced i basicaly know 2 extracts but theyr pretty easy to use.

[meager widget]

If you want we can try to run one labs match

i can bring in your gear of choice

[raw oyster]

no worries on that lemme call u ye?

[meager widget]

yes just let me know 5 minutes earlier

[raw oyster]

i can now l0l

[meager widget]

alright give me 5 minutes to get ready

do you have a card or do you need one?

[raw oyster]

u cant give but you need Acces card.

im running factory for 1 pmc kill in offices area so call me on private thing whenever u wanna go then ill be ready within 2 mins or so to

[meager widget]

Alright no worries

[radiant swan]

Is level 25 good?

[remote kettle]

play at your own pace

especially if youre still somewhat of a beginner

[radiant swan]

3rd real wipe under my belt

[remote kettle]

how many hrs

[radiant swan]

52 in arena

And 615 total

[remote kettle]

dont concern yourself with whats good or bad then, youll find players here at level 10 and level 45

615 hours and 25 is perfectly fine

[radiant swan]

Alright, I’m level 40 but you had such a kind response

When I say crap like that I get 💩 on

[remote kettle]

yeah its a recurring question

[radiant swan]

Those are my hours btw

[remote kettle]

people get annoyed cause it gets repeated alot

[radiant swan]

It’s a lot better than “I found this cheater” posts or pve posts bragging about killing 100 pmcs or something

[remote kettle]

i dont really mind either way

[radiant swan]

Those Reddit posts are boring

And get a ton of upvotes

[remote kettle]

it just clogs feeds all the time

[radiant swan]

Yup

[remote kettle]

if youre gonna post at least have it be a bit interesting

i saw a cheater at level 15 selling 80k 56a1 and had a 123kd for example

[radiant swan]

Posts like this “which traders are the kindest” are so much funner

[radiant swan]

Lol

Yeah that would be wild

[stiff cape]

why were you asking if level 25 is good?

[radiant swan]

Because I’ve seen a lot of people say that and get crapped on

[stiff cape]

so you were baiting? cool

[radiant swan]

You call it baiting, I call it seeing how others would respond

[radiant swan]

You new?

2 years at least, fair play

How are you finding this wipe

thats called baiting

[long venture]

i found a lot of them in labs black key room

and i have not found any from scav case.
I think the cultist circle can help you on that because so far its giving me tons of task items. Im hoping the circle will help with my virtex too.

[stiff cape]

its one of the big gatekeeper items to find every wipe

[wary pewter]

Thanks that is what I thought

[sharp carbon]

anyone know why I upgraded but didnt get the extra rep for traders?

[umbral widget]

Does anyone have a guide on which tasks to do in which order so that you can do tasks without so many raids on the same map?

For example I could’ve had 4 reserve tasks but since I forgot to finish a previous task I only had 3

I know it’s a dumb question

[fickle cairn]

anyone wanna go lighthouse?

[obsidian hawk]

just bought and downloaded the game. anyone willing to teach me the ropes?

[edgy plover]

Yea shoot me a DM

If you're still lookin :)

[devout wind]

[slender dew]

[marsh pawn]

anyone know what to do if i deleted a file that was in quarantine that was related to eft arena and now its not letting me play the game it keeps asking me to repair it and redownload it and it doesn't work

[wet dove]

lf help with w a couple of early quests (unknown key) :)
and maybe stash sorting

[slender dew]

have you done the file recovery via the launcher in settings?

[tough rain]

Y’all how do I stop dying as much. I have a 25% survival rate, and I’m pretty alright at getting quest done, but I want to actually live more and make it out more. I kinda don’t even expect to live most of the time and usually use my scav to get money since I’m good at that too.

Any suggestions?

[marsh pawn]

already deleted the file that was in there

[slender dew]

remember that this is not CoD or Battlefield. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast

[fervent raft]

sell all the fmj, m62 .300, tcw, bcp fmj, m822, rrlp, fmj mosin, hp mosin and pst

[upbeat elk]

Overall doing "Good" is about the progress you gain in tasks, which in return gains progress to levels and trader rep. Loot is easy to get and doesnt really require skill.

[hushed wigeon]

m62 isnt good?

gotta fill this food container

[fervent raft]

.300 m62 is not

[hushed wigeon]

doesnt it pen decently up until level 5

[fervent raft]

Thats x51 m62

Big difference

[hushed wigeon]

?

[upbeat elk]

And even that doesnt pen level 5 really

[fervent raft]

36 pen

[upbeat elk]

36 is not good

[fervent raft]

Aka trash

[upbeat elk]

its not bad, but not good

[hushed wigeon]

so i should only care about the value

[upbeat elk]

What else is there

[fervent raft]

Cbj is what you wanna use in .300

[hushed wigeon]

ive been looking at the pen values

like the "very high" shit

not at the actual number itself

[upbeat elk]

The right side?

Its just a general rule of thumb

[hushed wigeon]

with all the fun colors

so i should care about the number basically

not as much this

[upbeat elk]

Yes

Yes

[hushed wigeon]

ok ty

thatll be easier to check

[upbeat elk]

What does the m62 show

against armor tiers

[hushed wigeon]

its ok

[upbeat elk]

Can you screenshot it? Im just curious

[hushed wigeon]

once i die ye

[upbeat elk]

k

[hushed wigeon]

this should be accurate tho

that and 36 pen

[upbeat elk]

Im not sure how they value it

Because in theory you need a bunch of .300 m62 shots to class 5 to start pening it

And i would definitely not put that as "4" vs class 5

[hushed wigeon]

ah i getcha

mm

what the hell

imma sell the ps

probably the pp

[upbeat elk]

You can check this website.
https://tarkovgunsmith.com/ballistics_simulator

Input the ammo and then plate and see the values.

This is m62 vs Korund plate. So you can see, that its 72% chance to pen only at 6th shot. It varies between plate types, as not every class5 is the same. But 5-6 shots to start to pen somewhat reliably is not "decent" imo

[hushed wigeon]

oo

[upbeat elk]

But i wouldnt agree that its "trash". Its still ok to run if you got nothing better, just you will struggle vs class 5+

[slender dew]

if anyone was that player scav on lighthouse that got smashed but didnt die near southern road and lived, grats, 300 meter shot that messed you up lol

[devout wind]

do you not get arena with unheard?

[fervent raft]

Yes you do

[devout wind]

well at least bsg arnt that scummy

[fervent raft]

I wouldnt spend the money on a Mcx to run m62

Then id go for a ap63 gun or something with same pen

[upbeat elk]

I mean, ap63 is 30pen

[buoyant dome]

hi

i bought pve expansion but game doesnt sees it

should I reainstall?

[simple oar]

what does your main screen look like when you load the game?

This is what mine looks like

[umbral widget]

can u play the tarkov arena free weekend without owning tarkov? i wanna let my friends try tarkov arena

[upbeat elk]

Read the announcments

[buoyant dome]

this is how it looks like

[mystic sun]

Will the xp earned in the free trial add to the standard eft account?

[buoyant dome]

oh, i need to switch modes in bottom right corner

[astral glen]

Yes, if you own EFT

[buoyant dome]

cheers!

[mystic sun]

👍

Level 15 here I come 🤣

[remote kettle]

dont get your hopes up too high. Tasks in arena are the biggest XP earners

[mystic sun]

Can you explain more? I didn’t get that. Thx

[remote kettle]

the main easy xp comes from arena dailies/weeklies

you can get 7-9k per match if you do well and win, but its not the super duper speedrun amount people seem to think

[tender isle]

lvl 17 looking for help with big sale task (first wipe) (idk interchange this good) eu

[vague orchid]

is getting 6 quests done in a single raid good?

[serene reef]

the "very low" etc is the % chance to pen on first shot full durab armor afaik

while the 6 6 6 5 4 2 is how many shots it would take to start penning that armor, 6 is like a high chance to begin with while 2 means you'd need like 10 shots or smthn to make your bullets penetrate with a chance of x%

if a ghzell was repaired to be 50 durab and the original was 100 it still counts as 50% durab and instead of being a tier 5 would be a tier 4 effectively when it comes to % chance to pen... but after that shot there is more dmg to the ghzell, so a 25% durab ghzell is basically a tier 3 :)

this

what

oh its bugged this wipe is what you're saying?

[exotic warren]

im not experienced with anything in this game, would it be worth it to kit out a gun and get some decent armour and run this on night customs or woods
