@void wyvern if you’re low on funds. Take advantage of your scav. Interchange night is the best

void wyvern
#

yeah I should probably use the SCAV more, I just prefer to use the PMC because of the experience basically

#

but yeah I have run interchange a few times, I also really like it 😄

buoyant mason
#

@void wyvern KAC comp and suppressor, that will cost you about 35k for both

bleak void
#

@dark jewel thats right. for instance the cargo manifests for ragman task

split vapor
#

@void wyvern You care if I send you something

void wyvern
#

any help is appreciated ^^

spring notch
#

im confused. blacked out thorax makes you take x1.5 the damage to any other body part, correct?

#

and the confusing part is that a blacked out limb makes you take x0.7 the damage to any other body part? essentially, having 1 blacked out limb makes you more tanky? 🤔

split vapor
#

A blacked thorax means youre dead unless its from a bleed

spring notch
#

oh nevermind

buoyant mason
#

its 0.7 to every other body part evenly if you continue to be shot in that limb so i.e. you take 70 damage to every body part rather than 100 in that particular area @spring notch

spring notch
#

i understood it wrong, i get it now

#

yeah i got it now

#

in the past getting +1 bullet into a blacked out limb meant insta-rip right? they mustve changed it over the 2 years ive been afk

split vapor
#

No, just chest and head

buoyant mason
#

depends on what ammo is used and where they hit you 😄

split vapor
#

Your head and chest can go black cause of a bleed and you wont die

#

but any more damage there will kill you

buoyant mason
#

every limb when blacked has a different damage multiplier so it really depends what hits you and where @spring notch 😄

split vapor
#

Orb had some formula for blacked limbs and damage upon you

spring notch
#

x0.7 for hands, x1 for legs and x1.5 for belly

buoyant mason
#

yeah so a few smg rounds in a blacked arm may well not kill you, but 2 or 3 m80 shots in the arm would 😄

#

hence why leg meta is effective, that cheeky 1x damage ]

thin tusk
#

how can you buy a better secure container? i can only find 2 kinds on market?

buoyant mason
#

buy it from max rank peacekeeper 😄

#

or do punisher, finish all the quests or upgrade to eod 😄

thin tusk
#

yeah that sounds really eazy XD

buoyant mason
#

or arrange with someone to buy one for you 😄

#

beta containers are about 600k 😄

thin tusk
#

whats a good place to find theese people?

buoyant mason
#

i can give you a hand if youd like, go into a raid naked with 600k in your alpha and ill swap you for the beta 😄

trail robin
#

I'M SO DUMB

#

I didn't know you could scroll down when looting

golden brook
#

lol

trail robin
#

I've missed out on so much loot :C

buoyant mason
#

scroll down in what way? what am i missing? 😄

trail robin
#

Just scroll down, I just thought you couldn't get shit from their pockets or vest for the past couple days

#

:c

buoyant mason
#

ahh, thats a rip sir

trail robin
#

Yep yep yep..

buoyant mason
#

i possess about 10 camo 6b47 helmets lol, fun times

dark jewel
#

@trail robin oh wow, THANK YOU. I didn't know that either (started playing yesterday)

buoyant mason
#

aw, feels bad for the new peoples

#

its a shame the learning curve is so steep

sonic lake
#

g e a r f e a r too

buoyant mason
#

yeah, mine was a fear of buying good ammo lol

#

i was like 'i aint shooting $4 a bullet fuck that'

sonic lake
#

my friend's new and

#

he doesnt even want to sell things lol

rain oar
#

My first day in Tarkov: Bought a VEPR 7.62 and didn't even bother with doing a Scav run first. Was 10/10 till I got beamed by a scav

buoyant mason
#

oof, least you learned scavs are op!

plucky goblet
#

me, one year ago: i won't shoot 4$ a bullet fuck that
me, today: i hope this one ammo case of 995 is enough for today

buoyant mason
#

if it dont melt through class 5 it aint worth shooting

rain oar
#

Well, that run was kinda awful anyway. Spawned in late and barely any loot left to grab 😑

sonic lake
#

bruh

plucky goblet
#

thats why you kill people for loot

sonic lake
#

my first day i put PS ammo into a .366 vepr

#

lmao

rain oar
#

I was straight up HUNTING for people to kill

buoyant mason
#

oof, sounds fun

rain oar
#

No one, nada, niente

plucky goblet
#

bruh
when i started there was a 99% off pre wipe event
i went on fac with a fort and kiver and a stock m4 with 55 HP and asked myself why people don't die

sonic lake
#

F

buoyant mason
#

see i never had that, i got basically told by a friend how to play, i was never allowed to make any mistakes 😦

sonic lake
#

me and my buddy earlier on got sprayed while looting by two level 3s and we thought we were dead, but PS rounds

plucky goblet
#

i didn't have any people to play for the first month

#

so i did lots of shit

sonic lake
#

messaged them to tell them PS ammo is not good

buoyant mason
#

yeah i dropped a guy the other day with a nice ak but he had a 60 rounder full of FMJ rounds, poor guy

plucky goblet
#

right after they fixed the bug where prs and mk255 where the best ammo in game, i killed some fort altyn dude with my glock cuz his prs didn't pen my Untar

buoyant mason
#

what bug was that?

plucky goblet
#

they somehow fucked stuff up so prs had the stats of BS and mk255 the stats of 995

buoyant mason
#

wow, bet that was fun

plucky goblet
#

they fixed that with a wipe and some people didn't knew it was fixed

#

so he just sprayed me with prs out of a fully pimped AK, didn't pen my untar and i legged him with my glock

dark jewel
#

Anyone got suggestions for how to avoid TKing people in your group? I'm hearing impaired and played with some randoms earlier today, TK'd one cause I couldn't understand him on voice chat when he asked if I was on his team. I feel bad about it, but he yelled at me after so I'm kinda discouraged.

plucky goblet
#

well, best way is just communication
if you can't understand him, tell him to hold his gun into the sky or something to check if its him

dark jewel
#

Yeah, I'm gonna do that next time, it was confusing cause we were getting shot at by a different group

reef spoke
#

~ 100m grid, (roughly, like meh accurate comepared to my old ones)

plucky goblet
#

hm

#

I just remember i wanted to ask again if we should put that in the wiki as shooter born in heaven "guides" since you said yes lul

reef spoke
#

lol

#

If we're gonna do that I'd have to write an article about shooting at angles and such since its based on LOS not true distance

plucky goblet
#

but also since noone ever asked for something like that

fluid flax
#

if anyone wants to shoreline im running some

split vapor
#

People would still complain even when you are handholding them throughout

#

100m is literally nothing

plucky goblet
#

bruh
its a wonder i didn't see anyone complain for like a week about that the wikis gunsmith 14 guide doesn't wotk cuz they can't read

formal vigil
#

earlier on I got an m4 and an adar fully kitted with ps320 (1-6x). with the 1x tho sens is low af, any reasons why?

#

6x is fine

plucky goblet
#

because its both the same sense sind you can't set them separately

formal vigil
#

suck tho, it's almost impossible to shoot with the 1x

plucky goblet
#

hm
i got no problems with it tbh

grizzled owl
#

lol since when is there a 0.12 waiting room 😄

plucky goblet
#

today

formal vigil
#

@plucky goblet you have no problem with the 1/6x?

#

or in general?

#

cause apparently it's a bug

plucky goblet
#

got a problem with some scopes, but the valday is perfectly fine for mw

formal vigil
#

lucky you then, it's a know bug apparently

buoyant mason
#

i thought all scopes were the same?

split vapor
#

Scope sensitivity?

#

Nope

buoyant mason
#

as in they all have a shit 1x

split vapor
#

The 1x is p bad

#

I increased the aiming sensitivity setting and it fixed it

buoyant mason
#

the vudu and the tac-30 feel pretty much exactly the same imo

#

i rarely use the 1x though, cant say ive ever been killed because of it, i just tend to use the backup rather than toggling the magnification

split vapor
#

I use the 1x mainly to scout for movement flick to them and zoom in

rain oar
#

My best run so far. Went in as a scav and came out with ~175k roubles profit uh

buoyant mason
#

well done sir, i just have to keep going to resort lol, fuck wet job hahaha

rain oar
#

I just went into customs

buoyant mason
#

i have a really hard time w/ customs, especially solo

rain oar
#

Only been going at it solo so far.

plucky goblet
#

solo is fun

buoyant mason
#

yeah its not great, i almost never play solo myself

#

almost always have the advantage as a group if you communicate well and have some decent situation awareness

idle bluff
#

@reef spoke How confident are you in those grids

reef spoke
#

The shoreline ones are 99% acc, The others are lazily done, +/= 15% range.

idle bluff
#

Hmmm

#

You fine if I pin them

#

I'll flip a coin for Woods and Customs

reef spoke
#

either or is fine.

like for example, range to target on woods map said 267, actual range was 297 so there is some offage.

#

but the hold is close enough for most guns to be on torso

idle bluff
#

Oh, 15%, thought you said 15m

#

Yeah, still good enough

reef spoke
#

like I said, I'll get around to actually doing a good set of grids for the public.

#

but im lazy

idle bluff
#

Heeey same.

Normally a question is posted

kindred surge
#

nah too much work lol =but here is is what is the absolute quietists gun that i can put a scope on?

split vapor

Anything 9mm has the lowest suppressed sound radius

#

So mp5 mpx and a scope

#

But literally any rifle suppressed past pfft 100 feet you won’t hear anything

I remember seeing a "cheat sheet" that someone had made that showed all the backpacks, armour, helmets with images and everything, all in one picture. Anyone know what I'm talking about? 😃

It may have been pinned on one of these channels

tight pond
#

Just ran around factory for 5-10 minutes sprinting and found 2 scavs on my pmc. nothing else. is it possible nobody joined my game?

#

should i have stuck around and looted lol

trying to get the pmc kills with pistol task done, incredibly difficult..

Probably had 1 other person that just did something sneaky and ran off

bold kernel
#

Does anyone know when they normally do a reset?

spiral plaza
#

A wipe?

When there's a large enough patch that affects progression and traders

#

So every several months usually so far

copy that! Thanks man

buoyant mason
#

@tight pond if you're having trouble finding PMCs in raid you can change your server selection in the launcher and that should help you find more populated lobbies

#

Best to look at timezones and find ones that are at a reasonable time of day for playing

bold kernel
#

Guys which actual long range scope has a slot for attaching a reflex sight on top of it?

#

not talking about assault scopes btw

somber basin
#

How long range you wanting?

#

Like a rifle scope or your acog and such?

bold kernel
#

Rifle scope

somber basin
#

There's an attachment you can get that attaches a mount onto most riflescopes

#

I forget the name, and my worksite has a proxy so i can't look it up here

#

Your other option is a canted sight

#

Or a laser device

#

Variable zoom scopes also work well

bold kernel
#

oh Im Trying to put that on a VSS

somber basin
#

Well

#

I wouldn't Rifle scope a vss

#

Why you want a rifle scope on a vss?

#

You planning on sniping at 250M?

#

@bold kernel

bold kernel
#

Long Range Silent Sniping While Staying Valid at CQB as well

#

Mainly for Interchange and Customs

somber basin
#

VSS rounds aren't designed for long range

#

Interchange and customs you'd be better off with an assault scope

#

Acog with a red dot top is your best option

#

The rounds are subsonic, they won't reach very far and keep their velocity

#

A better option would be to use an RSASS as a hybrid for that

#

Or use a dedicated rifle (Like a DVL-10 Suppressed)

#

And a backup CQB weapon

bold kernel
#

Yeah man i just wanna Try Weird Combos with My Fav gun

somber basin
#

I get that

#

Just do stuff within the operational range of a weapon, imho

bold kernel
somber basin
#

loooool

That rifle scope is a solid choice though

#

That could work pretty well

bold kernel
#

yeah its that 1-6x

The RK-1 is a good choice with that too

Would anyone be willing to help me lose my Labs virginity before level 40? Im level 39 but have never played labs, it intimidates me a bit and Im used to playing almost completely solo

🤔

misty nimbus
#

5.56 warmage worth using?

somber basin
#

Eh

#

You're better off m995

#

In terms of usability across the board

#

You can give it a try, you might like it

misty nimbus
#

i usually use the m855a1

#

just thinking of shaking things up

#

plus the 995 is a lot more expenisve isnt it?

somber basin
#

It is, but a lot more effective as well

#

Well worth the extra cost

#

2 more dollars a round to penetrate any armor reliably

misty nimbus
#

yeah, i seem to be oblivious to people so i tend to not get the first shots. and lose the fights. maybe that will change the dynamic a bit

somber basin
#

Well, that won't be fixed by round choice, it's situational awareness

plucky goblet
#

warmage is only useful against completely unarmored people or if you shoot their legs

misty nimbus
#

wtb heat seeking missles

reef spoke
#

warmage is a meme tbh, even with "leg meta" m995 or m856a1 aimed at chest kills faster,

#

maybe when frag actually works as intented it'll change,but for now, pass on most if not all HP ammo.

#

#

Is the SV 98 still a bad rifle? I heard it can be pretty inaccurate in the past? But its got some ergo over the mosin etc

reef spoke
#

Whom ever said that didn't know what they're talking about.

Sv-98 has been one of the most accurate rifles in the game since .8

It's arguably the best sniper rifle ingame atm.

#

( i started playing exclusively with olt guns more or less in .8 is whyI say since .8)

undone sable
#

Classic tower knows his shit

#

Alright sweet

reef spoke
#

Yee.

These are dvl-10 groups, which has like .014 acc and iirc the sv-98 sits around .016

But realstically these groups are about what you'd exect ( these are 10 round groups at 100m)

#

( I was doing 500 round accuracy testing on guns before they changed how they lable the accuracy stat, and surpise surpise , I got the same answers when you convert them lol.)

undone sable
#

not bad

buoyant mason
#

I was grabbing the SV on the flea the other day for 29k, you cant even get a mosin that cheap!

bold kernel
#

Ive never seen one before but what is the gasan worth?

brisk mortar
#

Not a whole lot tbh, but you'll need 4 for different quests

plucky goblet
#

15k to thetapist, thats probably the most you can get since they're on the flea for the same but you pay a fee there

anyone feels like rolling with a noob for a bit? im trying to learn the maps

wise matrix
#

sure

rain oar
#

So I've read that FOV is kinda.. bugged at the moment and some people recommended to run at 50 FOV?

spiral plaza
#

Not really

wise matrix
#

i run at 75 and im fine

spiral plaza
#

50 and 75 both have some quirks but no real game affecting issues

#

I like running 59 because it's equal to what most games list as 90

rain oar
#

Yeah I dunno. Usually I just slap FOV to the highest possible. In BF3 for example I run 115 FOV or something.

plucky goblet
#

highest fov best fov
everywhere

spiral plaza
#

I like having the same everywhere so I stick to 90 hfov

#

So at 16:9 reso thats 59 in Tarky

i wish we had some kind of killcam system, i've just died in the garages on interchange and i have no clue where i died from. might be a weird request, but could someone review a 30-second clip of when i died and give some insight on where he was?

spiral plaza
#

Sure

viral tartan
#

cool, i'll try to trim the video down now without making it too compressed/blotchy

#

i haven't found a great way to do it yet, the windows app doesn't do too great

spiral plaza
#

If you have AMD, ReLive

#

If you have Nvidia, ShadowPlay

#

Or if you have some knowhow and want to be able to do more with it, OBS Studio

#

But ReLive and Shadowplay both run in the background after you set them up without having to have an app open

viral tartan
#

yeah i've been using shadowplay, i just meant more that i don't have a convenient way of trimming videos down to a certain length

idle bluff
#

He was outside.

#

Behind you.

viral tartan
#

but my guess is he was behind the container but i didn't see him whatsoever in that direction, even looking over the somewhat clearer original

#

then the flash behind the container was bullet ricochet?

idle bluff

That, or him missing and hitting the container instead of you.

Whats a good scope for M4A1 for customs?

spiral plaza
#

Elcan Specter is probably the best allround scope since its a 1x/4x with a clunky iron sight on top

bold kernel
#

Hamr

spiral plaza
#

Prolly best to ignore the iron sight on top unless scouting for vision, but its prolly the best at mixed range engagements with the zoom modes

#

Yeah honestly any 4x is fine I just like Elcan cause it doesnt need you to buy a reddot to put on top of it

bold kernel
#

True

spiral plaza
#

Bravo takes pistol sights on top. Hamr takes deltapoint on top. ACOG takes RMR or iron sight on top. Elcan has iron on top.

spiral plaza

Very.

Be shamefull if u couldn't kill any1 with this

ornate furnace

You can swap the stock out for a MOE stock with buttstock and i think it'd be better

spiral plaza

Theres a lot of small tweaks to be made but those stats are more than enough to kill literally anything with decent ammo

ornate furnace
#

and theres a better barrel attachment that people usually go with that jailbreak

bold kernel
#

Which one is it?

ornate furnace

VP-09

spiral plaza

I mean, if you want the meta boringness then

ornate furnace

i mean that thing is pretty close to meta already

#

no point in not going all the way

bold kernel
#

on fast mt side armor or faceshield?

spiral plaza
#

Dont use fastmt

#

Airframe is better, it lets you have side armor and faceshield and headphones

#

Fastmt only allows side armor or headphones, so you get hearing muffled (and you definitely want side protection on a helmet that expensive)

Also it doesnt allows visor+sidearmor

And some facecover so you are less visible (yes it actually matters when in bushes)

bold kernel
#

so ulach instead

normal bear

The mandible is useless anyway

And you will spend more money and also you can.use headphones which reaaallly help

Alternatively u can go airframe but thats costy

Which headphones?

Hi, as a new player, I killed a guy in some decent gear with a mosin and made it out.

Now when I go back in, should I spend the 20k for the armor and 20k for the head for insurance? Or is it likely that now I will die to a player and insurance is not worth my time? Not sure how to decide that. Thanks

@potent tusk always insure mate, you may get dropped by a scav in a stupid place and get your shit back

hello

#

anyone want to play a lil?

tight olive
#

Should I even get the game?

bold kernel
#

why not

tight olive
#

It’s buggy.

#

The bugs and server issues might totally ruin the game, or they may not be that big of an issue

analog gazelle
#

your referring to tarkov lightbender?

#

your asking people in tarkov chat whether or not its worth it

#

clearly our answers are mostly gonna be yes

#

it's a love/hate relationship

tight olive
#

Nope I’m referring to Terraria.

analog gazelle
#

no idea then

tight olive
#

Of course I am, I’m not going to spend the money for a game that’s too buggy on not that perfect of WiFi, on definitely not the best computer in the world, played by most definitely not the most patient person in the world.

#

But idk yet, I might rack up thousands of hours on Tarkov absolutely loving the game, even with its quirks.

split vapor
#

Buggy?, uh not really at all,

#

Buffy is like r6

#

even after 5 years still isnt fixed

tight olive
#

I’ve heard EFT has some bad server issues

rain oar
#

Haven't had any issues

#

Also why WiFi?

brisk mortar
#

Depends on your region, Light.

rain oar
#

Use a cable.

brisk mortar
#

also sometimes you just can't because various reasons.,

#

Depending on your server in the EU, or if you're in the OCE region, you may very likely have server issues.

#

Same with NA, but it seems like less of a problem.

tight olive
#

East coast currently, should probably get a cable yeah.

brisk mortar
#

East coast? I've got a handfull of servers connected and have never had any issues beyond a occasional F2F

tight olive
#

F2F?

brisk mortar
#

Fail to Find

tight olive
#

Ah

brisk mortar
#

I just end up sitting in Matching, get an error, and then hop right back in.

#

usually once out of ten raids or so

tight olive
#

So East coast USA is actually a really good place for Tarkov servers?

solemn rampart
#

Na east coast here, i have pretty good internet and use wifi, i have no server issues, just the rare game stutter. My friend has crap internet (like mobile hotspot wifi) and can still play.

brisk mortar
#

For me, yeah, but it does depend on your internet really.

#

Who's your provider?

tight olive
#

AT&T

brisk mortar
#

Oof.

tight olive
#

Bad oof?

brisk mortar
#

As for the density of bugs, there's small bugs in the quality of life bits but otherwise I personally haven't encounted any game-breaking bugs lately.

#

Also yes, bad oof.

tight olive
#

Shit.

brisk mortar
#

You on their fiber or normal plan?

solemn rampart
#

The loading screens lenth is all dependent on how fast your cp can load the map and uf other players are searching for a match in same instance as you, even if theres no players you start within 3 mins. I have only encountered getting stuck in a crevice bug but thats because i was stupid and was pulling some hardcore parkour. Its a very hard game because of its balistics and amount of knowledge u need but that makes it rewarding.

tight olive

Normal I think, might upgrade later on.

eternal timber
#

Hey anyone wanna duo with me in labs so he can walk me through it teaching me map/angles/extractions?

potent tusk
#

Hi, just wondering, is the intention in Scav mode that I would not shoot other Scavs? I keep dying to other player scavs and I am wondering if that is out of the ordinary or the norm

timber bolt
#

the loading screen tells you

#

scavs don't have any rules

#

AI scav will leave you alone unless you shoot a player scav

#

that's pretty much it

#

dying to player scavs is the norm

#

the way tarkov functions, there is zero benefit to leaving other players alive

sonic lake
#

but its ass when Pscavs kill you because you cant kill them first without aggroing everyone

#

or shoot first

spiral plaza
#

I usually blink my flashlight at other pscavs from behind some cover, and if they seem friendly I just give 'em a wiggle and leave to another part of the map, or if they start taking angles at me I shoot and scoot

#

Usually if you blink the light at them before they see you its a clear indication of "I couldve shot you but decided not to" while a wiggle may come off as "oh god dont shoot me I have valuables in my bag"

#

In a surprise run-in 90% of people just pull the trigger just to be sure, or because they're newer to the game and panic

lower ROF therefore easier to control

buy decent ammo?

the flea market makes even lvl 1 players able to compete

you can even buy an ak for like 20k and put BS rounds in it, thatll drop most things

Just use a hunter

#

Lmao

#

Or use a flea market aksu with bs rk-1 buttpad and cqb muzzle

#

It costs like 30 for the whole gun and it has near 60 recoil

Then just buy good ammo and you are good to go

Hi, is anyone available to show me some of the ropes? I have a good basic understanding of how to play (although I may have control keybind questions if I run across something I haven't had to do before) but I'm slow on looting, not terribly familiar with maps, and haven't really had anyone help explain good ways to improve my ability to aim quickly at enemies or improve situational awareness.

So if anyone's willing to help with that I'd really appreciate it : )

Haha

#

@split vapor how do we change it though?!

marsh tide
#

@narrow pasture are they any guides that explain how scavs work or do i just grind out offline so i can figure out how they work

sonic lake
#

My rules are: sniper shotgun scavs

#

Ak scavs blind until youre in front of them

#

TT scavs are also sniperd

marsh tide
#

i keep hearing people say that scavs are "locked on"

#

what does that mean

sonic lake
#

They are focused on you

#

And you only

#

Through walls and stuff

#

To break the lock crouch and move at 2 ticks or below behind cover usually works for me

#

You can also yeet away from them until they forget

marsh tide
#

So just crouch and start moving slowly when not in LOS to break their tracking?
So once you break their lock you are free to repeek and they won't instantly react

#

yeah lul

#

it was shoreline, scavs were at exfil and i had a few blackened limbs from previous fights

#

yeah i was running pmc

#

Yeah what happened was I was approaching road to customs and there where 2 scavs at the exfil

#

peeked my head over a small hill to quickly takedown one shotty scav, fired 2 bullets before he instantly spun around and one tapped me with shotty

#

it was looted, just running a budget loadout at the time

#

managed to get if off pmc at resort

#

sad at the loss of profit

#

thanks for the tips, in time i'll learn how to cheese scavs thinking

yeah i've been watching them a lot

heady oasis
#

just get an stock m4a1 that has nothing and put everything from an adar 2-15 on it

spiral plaza
#

Not recommended, tbh. Recoil too high to make use of the full auto capability. That 20k is better off spent on good ammo for said ADAR.

heady oasis
#

idk but like if they run factory theyll use it in close quarters anyways so yea idk

#

maybe its just a bduget m4a1 for factory or labs

sonic lake
#

ADAR with good ammo > M4 with high recoil and shit ammo
on factory or labs

#

Im saying that as a slow clicker

heady oasis
#

ok

#

then maybe not that good of an option

sonic lake
#

Yeah

#

With good ammo you need a couple clicks to down someone

#

With bad ammo and big recoil m4 you need hella mag dumps

#

Bc you might miss a lot of shots due to recoil

heady oasis
#

i use m995

sonic lake
#

With your big recoil m4?

heady oasis
#

nah with others

#

i didnt even tested it out tbh

sonic lake
#

Thats a lot of wasted missed 995 rounds if so

heady oasis
#

im doing it nopw

sonic lake
#

A 70 recoil m4 is an unweildy m4 imo

heady oasis
#

what does imo mean

sonic lake
#

In my opinion

#

A decent m4 really isnt that expensive around 110k or so for a 50~ vertical recoil m4

heady oasis
#

didnt went that bad

#

i died tho cause a grenade

sonic lake
#

Wot

heady oasis
#

i got 5 kills

sonic lake
#

Eh

heady oasis
#

2 headshot 3 thorax

#

in factory

sonic lake
#

Lmao HS because you aimed at his dick and the recoil shot.up to his face

heady oasis
#

no nt rlly

#

i dont aim at legs from nature

sonic lake
#

Its not hard to get 5 kills with adar in factory

#

Just get adar bruh

#

IDK if this is worth having a discussion over in this channel

heady oasis
#

aight

spiral plaza
#

For a new player a wooden M4 is useless, but its good info to know the naked lower can be bought with 20k

sonic lake
#

Korgi should get modded 😏

bold kernel
#

@heady oasis you can make that 10 times better by putting a 10k Advanced reciever and a 10k CQB 5.56x45 compensator on it

#

easily go down to like 60 recoil and make it 10 times more managable

heady oasis
#

ok

sonic lake
#

Actually pyro?

heady oasis
#

ill try to do that next time

sonic lake
#

Hm

#

Budget m4 2.0 then

spiral plaza
#

There's several good cheap M4 builds assuming flea prices are reasonable that've been posted in #weapon-modding along the times

sonic lake
#

If what you say brings it down to 60 rec, replacing handguard is all it needs to add grip

somber basin
#

I'll be honest

#

Your weapon build is secondary compared to just getting a feel for using a stock weapon

#

Mods definitely help, don't get me wrong

#

But I'd try using stock weapons first

#

Then use a mod here and there

#

Change it up

#

See what you like and don't like

#

Make it YOUR preference, not just something you see other people doing

#

If you shoot a lot IRL, your weapon choice in game can reflect what you're used to using

#

Like me, I work in Corrections, so I've used Glocks, Remington shotguns, and AR-15s frequently

#

So I prefer those over other weapons

#

RSASS is similar enough that I enjoy it's use

who likes someone telling you were wrong, and when you say no cuz - being told you were still wrong, by someone who wasnt there

could of been any number of things, and there were better ways to relay that information

buoyant mason

i mean why come to the beginner chat to cry about not getting a kill then leave when someone offers help albeit possibly in a derogatory way?

because they are frustrated and they got help in a derogatory way

um no, read it, he got really defensive really quickly

please explain how 'dont shoot him in the armour' is an unjustified comment

youre acting as if the dude said 'oh youre shit uninstall'

nah bro

but the guy is new

dude saw something that diddnt make sense, was told he did something wrong, dude said no and explained why, and was told nuh huh

could of told the guy anything else

buoyant mason

the comment was abrupt but true and his response was WAY unjustified, i dont know why youre defending him when it was valid criticism and he acted like a baby?

bold kernel

theres just better ways to help new players is all im saying

how is "no, he diddnt have armor, dont trash talk" unjustified

bold kernel
#

"dont shoot his armor" is kind of a cunt way to put it, to a new frustrated person

#

like you are an idiot for doing something that is being assumed

#

was he wearing armor, what did it look like, where did you hit him, actually helping the guy understand the mechanics of the game and what happened

buoyant mason

that still doesnt reliably pen class 3 so its still a bit poop

bold kernel
#

almost as frustrating as the game, is the discord community that either ignores new guys while they are flexing or sometimes outright laughs at some stuff the new players do and generally isnt all that helpful

off

bold kernel

the guy was frustrated man

#

something happened he diddnt understand

buoyant mason
#

coming into the beginner chat and slating the game, not asking for help then crying about an arsey response? seems all justified on my end

bold kernel
#

he was being a baby, but its understandable

#

you gotta help those new guys out, otherwise why bother even clicking on the beginners assistance

buoyant mason

if he'd have hopped in and said 'please help this happened......' then yeah totally uncalled for

#

I'm glad to help someone who wants to learn

bold kernel
#

its just something that i notice, where new guys get ignored or laughed at sometimes

#

in a long chain of flexing and meme'ing

#

it can get frustrating to see sometimes

buoyant mason
#

if he'd have asked for help then i completely 10,000% agree but 'this game is shit' (not in those words) isnt asking for help

#

it depends if youre playing resort or not i suppose, if thats your preferred playstyle stick to it! whatever works for you 😄

bold kernel
#

again dude was pissed

brisk mortar

Soothing someone in a bad mood does a lot more than pissing them off or pussyfooting around the issue.

stuff like "any tips on how to sneak?"
"dont make noise"

and

"how did this guy not die"
"dont shoot his armor"

its literally nothing for a new guy

usually its just gonna further frustrate a new guy

#

its not the worst thing in the world, i just dont see the point in dropping into beginners assistance to meme and not actually be helpful

or to argue with people? 🍵

yeah bro i ventured once outside of reddit and instagram and i just cant handle all the hot banter

you arent actually helping anyone and just further pissing off already frustrated new guys

again, real galaxy brain concepts here, i know

"how did this guy not die"
"dont shoot his armor"

without a replay no one could tell

#

just wondering, there's no arm over chest penetration system in tarkov right?

#

so arms can block shots to the chest depending on angle

formal vigil
#

if you shot a guy from the side I think only the arm gets damage ( not sure tho)

bold kernel
#

idk ive been shot once and had my arm blacked out and chest damaged by hunters

marsh tide
#

wow first time using a mosin

#

feels good to drop people in 1 shot

#

based on flea market economy it costs less to just buy a mp5 off flea than buy 10 knives for trade up

#

just checked wiki and there isn't a use for the knife other than barter trade

formal vigil
#

you can just find them in raid, dont buy the knifes just to trade them

marsh tide
#

yeah i was thinking there was just an over saturation of them

#

also i found a lab card, since i'm new would you recommend i sell it or hold on to it

#

or host a raid for a group

#

Just want to shout out @waxen idol for being so helpful to me earlier on. Donated some good gear and took me on a couple of runs to help me get to grips with the game.

How do you know what parts you can fit on a gun? I've never modded a gun before but I want to

brazen ibex
#

right click on the gun and do linked search

#

it will get you started

#

you can later right click also on a specific part on a gun and do linked search if you want to

Are all scavs equal? Some of them will stare at me for 3 min before shooting. Or others will pop me in the head when i turn the corner from 50ft away.

split vapor
#

Nope

#

scavs have a difficulty to them

#

hi am interest in this game is there any guide to help me understand a mechanic of this game before i buy this game?

#

Thanks

sonic lake
#

Watch youtube

south valve
#

i did watch many of them but there still a lot that i dont understand

#

and what is wipe?

sonic lake
#

Wipe is when devs wipe player progress when a major update is put out

#

To 1, test new stuff

#

And 2, endgame kinda boring so fresh start fun

fickle ocean
#

if you want to ease into it try offline pve or scav runs that way the is little to no risk and you can learn as you go

south valve
#

@sonic lake Thanks

#

@fickle ocean Thanks

sonic lake
#

But dont be afraid to run geared or sell things

#

At early level while you dont feel too good about running geared, sell the expensive gear you get. Its extra cash and saves space

fickle ocean
#

yea gear is a good thing run what you feel most comfy with no need to rush in with everything the first day -also offline raids don't make you lose gear so you can test out stuff and figure out if you enjoy using certain weapons/armour-

south valve
#

got it thanks again

I used offline mode to practice my sniper ranging on certain maps. Like using tracer ammo on a m700 to see how much bullet drop needs to be compensated on woods from sniper rock so i know if i rock into an online raid, where i need to aim for first shot kill

regal trench
#

so as a beginner still, best way to try out a gun and new attachments without risk, is there a way?

split vapor
#

Offline mode

#

Pick a map and then a screen or two in check the offline mode box add the ai

regal trench
#

ahh sweet, death has no risk in offline?

split vapor
#

Nah

#

You won’t lose anything that you bring

#

Can’t take any loot out

regal trench
#

that is sick though, guessing it does use ammo though

split vapor
#

Nope

Offline mode is a great way to learn a map - you can turn of Scavs and just walk about the maps. Also it's a great way to practice your hip fire (point shoot) skill - try hoard mode in factory and don't aim down sights - just shoot from hip. You'll soon learn where your screen center is and when you play for real you'll win a lot more fights.

Hello folks, Canadian here looking for some cool people to play with. I’ve played for long enough that I can help out brand new players learn the ropes but I’m also a new player who’d appreciate tips from a Veteran player

hi im not a begginer but i need to re download tarkov and i can´t log in on website i get to the part when battlestate its supposed to send me a verification code and nothing happens support page doesnt work also

rain oar
#

So uhm, I have the EoD edition of the game. Should I sell nearly everything from it just to have money or just yolo it and use it?

feral gorge
#

@rain oar You can do quite honestly whatever

#

But do sell the Fort

#

It's worth money but it's shit

sonic lake
#

Or you can kiver with fs and fort into factory with a PM and 100 mags

glad jay
#

Well the Fort isn't shit when it comes to how much punishment it can take assuming the rounds don't pen, but the penalties are quite bad

#

Watching streamers and wondering how they get so good at recoil control

#

Turns out it's an actual stat in game that lowers recoil for you

solemn ether
#

Making 5 man group for factory. Noobs only. Stick together no running all around. [5] Bravo

sonic lake
#

Yeah lol

#

@marsh tide watch ghostfreak mow down kids with his FAL hipfiring with 0 recoil

glad jay
#

After like 4-5 shots your PMC auto controls the recoil

#

When firing full auto that is

#

wish i had the resources to level it up quickly

one 84 round PM mag pls

@karmic garden with how he worded it i thought he just needed to mow down some fish in a barrel

faint vapor
#

Hi, im a beginner on the channel, could someone help me with the Stirrup mission? I cant take going into factory to try to kill people anymore

karmic garden
#

@faint vapor just ignore that quest until next wipe

#

Have fun and learn the game instead

faint vapor
#

i thought it was going to be a "soft wipe"

#

only resets the inventory or am i worng?

rain oar
#

A wipe resets everything

karmic garden
#

👆

faint vapor
#

ok then, thanks

bold kernel
#

Most wipes reset everything, there was one partial wipe two versions ago where they left pmc trader levels in place, so it was easier to level them up, though you still had to get the correct payment and character levels in game to 'unlock' traders levels. All other wipes have been full wipes.

split vapor
#

Wipes are 99% or 100%

toxic ridge
#

Does armor from VEST and RIGS stack ?
years ago it would not, but has it been fixed yet ?

#

Also, anyone has good guide on what to do every raid after a new wipe to lvl skills ?
Like dolphin jumping around like in BF2 to lvl str or w/e ?

bold kernel
#

@toxic ridge to level strength bring a ammo case full of buckshot into raid

#

in your container

sonic lake
#

Stirrup was fun but i also hated it

#

TT or APB into factory

#

Was p fun

#

Even though i was still ass at the game

#

Also grach

toxic ridge
#

@sonic lake was not fun 😦 I just did it yesterday and it's horrible when you're low lvl and everyone is highly geared, more fun early in the season

#

@bold kernel so you just shoot buckshots ? what makes you lvl, the recoil ? so I could use short barrels to take more recoil

split vapor
#

Armor doesnt stack

#

armor is its own separate piece

bold kernel
#

@toxic ridge leveling recoil is shooting, grab a Silenced PB, 84 round drum mags, fill em with cheap ammo, bring a mag box, and go sit in spawn and shoot for like 20 hours

reef spoke
#

Doesnt stack but it doesnt double the effectiveness of you use 2 level 3 best. Ita more like level 3 + 20%

toxic ridge
#

@split vapor what happens if you wear a class 3 thorax/stomach and you use the tactical rig with class 3 thorax only, if the rig is broken, then the armor works ?

sonic lake
#

My first wipe exo

#

I was low level too

bold kernel
#

@toxic ridge You dont need full gear to kill full gear

sonic lake
#

Ran into an altyn boi and shot his leg off he still fucked me up and i went to his stream to lol about it

split vapor
#

if the rig is lvl4 and armor is 5 and a round cant pen the lvl4 your lvl5 wont be touched

bold kernel
#

@toxic ridge
Armored rig = Lv3
Armor= lv3
Rig will be damaged first, then armor.

#

but wont stack protection

toxic ridge
#

ok

#

tyvm

split vapor
#

yeah its not the lvl4 plus lvl4 makes lvl8 armor like some believe

toxic ridge
#

lol

#

that doesn't make sense, but going through two lvl 4 and rolling pen chances twice would make sense

bold kernel
#

irl if you had 2 say AR500 plates, the bullet is much weaker at the 2nd plate if it goes through the first, im not too sure if it acts like that in tarkov, i dont think so but i could be wrongl mao

feral gorge
#

Okay soo

#

You just started I assum yeah?

#

Alright cool

#

Soo

#

Sell all the water and splints first of all

#

Put your money into the wallet and keep the wallet in your stash.

#

Okay soo

#

Is that armor repaired?

#

I can't zoom the image

#

If not. Repair it with Prapor

#

Because he's cheapest

#

Yeah that's broken

#

Repair

#

Next. Go to Ragman

#

Buy a SSH(some number) helmet

#

It's a green

#

Soviet looking helmet

#

For 18k

#

Okay now... You actually wanna get a gun and not a pistol

#

For a beginner it will do yes

#

Make sure

#

It's an OP-SKS

#

Has to be an Op-SKS

#

Soo that you can mount sights and scopes

#

curse you shitty Internet

#

If you look up

#

OP-SKS

#

On the flea

#

It should pop up

#

Yellow stock usually

#

Ok

#

Soo

#

The pic loaded

#

It's the yellow sks

#

The one in the pic

#

Buy that

#

Then when it's in your stash. Click linked search on it

#

And buy a dovetail mount

#

Yeah

#

15k

#

Actually

#

Right click it

#

Inspect

#

And tell me

#

The name

#

In the inspect tab

lapis mauve
#

yeah, that one with the black thing on the side. thats where the optics go

feral gorge
#

Yes

#

But

#

It doesn't come with the black thing always

#

@dense thorn a scope or a collimator. Which one do you want?
