[strange mural]

check veritas video

was it veritas?

i think it was

[half jackal]

wait let me get somewhere safe

[steady pilot]

it doesnt matter

[strange mural]

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

just as reference

[steady pilot]

see this tx 15?

[half jackal]

@steady pilot @strange mural https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ed4MFGkS6lc

[steady pilot]

94 ergo.

when i ads, i use ZERO stamina while standing

when i have 60 ergo, it drains pretty decently

[strange mural]

we are talking the drain

not the recharge

which weapons dont matter to

[steady pilot]

20 ergo is massive drain while stadning

-5 ergo mosin lasts you 5 seconds

[ember oak]

so theese 2 guns use the same ammo, does that mean the same damage?

if i use the same ammo in them

[steady pilot]

@ember oak yes dmg is dependent on the ammo

[ember oak]

ok

[steady pilot]

accuracy is based on the platform

as well as recoil/ergo

ill tell you now the 74u is hot garbage

and should be sold

[ember oak]

is the op-sks worth saving or is it bad

[steady pilot]

selling, the veprkm is better and half the cost

or trade the op-sks for ak103 for same price

[thick harness]

Whats a good beginner gun for someone who prefers single shot? Ive only really usen the adar since I could trade for it

[steady pilot]

veprkm

[strange mural]

vepr hunter, veprkm, all the mosin variants except for cutoff

[steady pilot]

vepr hunter is 35k

[wanton oracle]

mp5 veprkm veper hunter

[steady pilot]

svd is 55k

sv98 is 25k

m700 is 30k

[strange mural]

test them out and use what you prefer

what matters the most is ammo.

[steady pilot]

^

[wanton oracle]

that

is

cheap

[brazen owl]

only good thing about 5.45 in comparison to 7.62s is less recoil, right?

[steady pilot]

less recoil yes

[strange mural]

generally cheaper too

[steady pilot]

but also less dmg

[wanton oracle]

most good kitted guns cost 170-200k

[steady pilot]

545 less dmg more pen

762 more dmg/pen ratio, but has worst pen of the 2

[wanton oracle]

545 is better

for armor

[strange mural]

honestly as long as you use the best ammo

[steady pilot]

545 gets me killed

[strange mural]

its veery much what you prefer

[steady pilot]

ive always considered 545/556 trash in game.

to me.

[strange mural]

guns are just platforms for ammo

[steady pilot]

you see ivan

why spend 100 bullets on one guy

when you can jsut shoot one

[half jackal]

M1A best gun smh

[steady pilot]

m1a is bae after the ergo buff

[thick harness]

Where can I find corrugated hose? The wiki doenst list any potential spawn spots

[steady pilot]

@thick harness oli

[strange mural]

oli shelves

[steady pilot]

on interchange

[half jackal]

@thick harness hardware spawns

so stores under construction, tool boxes

oli is full of them

[ember oak]

if i want to change my aim keybind to hold is that continous?

[half jackal]

yes

you're going to want to rebind the scope modifiers too

[brazen owl]

Respirators do anything?

[strange mural]

also change your e and q(peek) to press

[steady pilot]

^

[strange mural]

also i dont think respi does anything yet

[steady pilot]

^

[strange mural]

will maybe do something in the future

[steady pilot]

yet.

[strange mural]

glasses do something rn though

they make rain effects affect you less

[half jackal]

@strange mural btw it does effect drain

[strange mural]

you can see better

[half jackal]

that video was while ADS

[ember oak]

whats an important keybind to have easy to press?

[half jackal]

but high ergo so it was recovering faster than it could drain

but you can see the difference in drain rate

[steady pilot]

go get a AR15 with 60 ergo, and go get an AR with 90 ergo

[ember oak]

i have q open for a bind

[strange mural]

faolan

[steady pilot]

tell me how you feel after

[strange mural]

look at the video i sent.

[half jackal]

when was that made?

[steady pilot]

WEIGHT HAS NEVER BEEN A FACTOR

[ember oak]

whats an important keybind to have easy to press?

pls

[half jackal]

dude lul

explain the video

[steady pilot]

ive played this since .07

[ember oak]

i need to use q

[half jackal]

and Ill make a new one too if you need to

[dense lotus]

Relax when you disagree with people

[steady pilot]

ERGO AFFECTS STAMINA DRAIN AND ADS SPEED

[dense lotus]

Can you call yourself down.

[half jackal]

listen weight effects ads drain

[dense lotus]

Calm*

[steady pilot]

weight doesnt affect stamina drain

[brazen owl]

Is there a way to know if I died to a PMC or a Scav player?

[steady pilot]

it never has

[half jackal]

@steady pilot https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/dwcvu0/yes_your_gun_weight_does_matter_tested/

[brazen owl]

Without seeing the person

[strange mural]

pmc is usac or bear in your killed screen

[dense lotus]

Only when you are overall overweight, you stamina drains faster

[strange mural]

you cant know if you got killed by scav ai or scav player though

[brazen owl]

Well there's only the person's name on the screen

No USAC or BEAR

[strange mural]

is it

a player name

or a scav name

[steady pilot]

do you mean ADS? OR running?

[half jackal]

@dense lotus its been tested - same gun but with/without loaded ammo, ads drained faster

[ember oak]

after you die

[brazen owl]

Yep, player name, not slav-scav like name

[strange mural]

then its a pmc

[brazen owl]

ok got it

then i was really unlucky to spawn and die as scav

[steady pilot]

you also never took a 80 ergo fal or 90-100 ergo tx15 in raid, and literally have any stamina drain for a 10 or 5 kilo gun

[half jackal]

ok

ill record

a new gif and send it

[wanton oracle]

ak-1022?

ak102?

sell or is it worth using

[strange mural]

do you want to use the weapon or do you need money

[steady pilot]

you know just to agree to disagree with your ego, SURE weight affects it, MINIMALLY, however ERGO gives the MOST affect and having more ERGO helps tremendously

[strange mural]

its a nice ak

[steady pilot]

go take a mosin 0 ergo and a sv98

roughly the same wegiht. sv98 has 40 ergo

compare the stamina drain

[brazen owl]

What people mean when they say they were "reserve"? Or died to a "reserve"?

[steady pilot]

reserve base

[brazen owl]

Oh got it

[steady pilot]

@half jackal go tell me what drains faster. mosin is much lighter

also just saying if you buy mosin, dont, buy sv98 its cheaper

[strange mural]

get that archangel mosin

its very aesthetic

[main sky]

Where can i buy scav vests?

[jovial pulsar]

Don't think you can. Ragman's got the Microrig though.

[main sky]

You used to be able to them tho right?

[potent atlas]

@main sky Jaeger trader

level 1

Or flea market there cheap.

[steady pilot]

i mean

typically vests come back no matter what

[potent atlas]

Yes people dont take them

the scav vests

[steady pilot]

so you can invest in higher tier rigs

[potent atlas]

or regular ones aswell

[steady pilot]

is my point.

[potent atlas]

If you get a big rig and a guy that killed you had a small rig its getting taken tarkov logic.

[steady pilot]

no one really runs smol rigs tho

except scav players ofc

cause no control

[potent atlas]

Yes

scavs have random rigs.

they can get big ones aswell.

[steady pilot]

my rig my get taken cause i take nothing but tactec and maybe avs if i want to loot more

but they are 65k 🤷‍♀️

[potent atlas]

armored rigs are kinda 50/50 to be taken

cause you cant have armor/rig combined

[steady pilot]

armoed rig more cost effective cause you dont have to buy a rig AND armor :P

tactec saved my ass from 2 7n1 to chest

so thats nice.

[potent atlas]

Yes and if you have RR (red rebel pick axe ) in woods and reserve you can extract if you have paracord aswell

[steady pilot]

all about that sewer rat life

[strange mural]

also

armored rigs are hard to loot

if you arent a scav

so they get left a lot of the time

in my experience

[steady pilot]

yeah gotta fiddle with all the shit

takes time

[strange mural]

armored rig= cant wear armor and rig = hard to loot

[steady pilot]

especially since it might be dmged

vs your armor

[strange mural]

yep

[steady pilot]

armored rigs are BAE right now

[strange mural]

and technically having a rig and armor is more worthy loot

[steady pilot]

they were hardly a factor before .12

except sweaties

[strange mural]

armored rig+penis helmet
with a simple single shot rifle and good ammo

is my kit of choice

[steady pilot]

^ YUP

60k rig 60k gun, 30-40k helmet

rather cheap loadout compared to most

[strange mural]

https://i.imgur.com/aVjRCcN.png if you run this+penis helmet

you are going in CHEAP

[steady pilot]

lmao cba with that ugly ass thing

[strange mural]

its bad protection

but extremely cheap

[steady pilot]

fashion > cheap

[strange mural]

it has no back protection

[steady pilot]

my typical loadout

[strange mural]

do you buy em helmets at market

is that the lzsh

[steady pilot]

tc-2001 mich

pk2

[strange mural]

ah

dont have it yet

[steady pilot]

cheap class 4

[strange mural]

oh shit

nice

[steady pilot]

450$

other class 4s are 55k-150k roubles

cause facesheild mounting etc

[strange mural]

class 4 helmets are good shit.

[steady pilot]

they work every now and then;

not really. more of a money sink.

[strange mural]

actually most armors dont have backplating do they

[strange mural]

before class5

[steady pilot]

no they all have back plating

[potent atlas]

reserve loadout

[strange mural]

they dont pro-

oh god im retarded

thorax is back too

[potent atlas]

thorax/stomach plate carriers

[steady pilot]

thorax is chest/back

[strange mural]

yeah

[potent atlas]

TacTec is only thorax.

[steady pilot]

and

a zeroed stomach doesnt kill you

a zeroed chest does

[potent atlas]

Yeah.

[steady pilot]

so ill take that class 5 protection.

[potent atlas]

But it depends if you dont have vitality leveled up

[strange mural]

black tummy kills you as a low level

[plucky goblet]

you can repair a black stomach, you can't repair a black chest

[strange mural]

youll literally dehydrate

[potent atlas]

If you have vitality leveled up like 9-10 lvl

[steady pilot]

cms kit to repair stromach

[potent atlas]

you have a chance to not die.

[steady pilot]

i normally die to bullets than pen my chest

or my head./

stomach has never been an issue :P

[strange mural]

i kind of want to hunt woods boss but wiki says it has insane range

[steady pilot]

even legs

[strange mural]

and i know it does

[steady pilot]

fuckin leg meta.

it would take a bullet to 1 -2 to black stomach + 2-3 more to stomach to displace dmg to kill someone

with high flesh dmg bullets

[grave root]

well i was just killed by a invisible scav on customs haha

[potent atlas]

My tip is going night time

and + thermal

for scav boss in woods

Cause he likes to change his position and hide

[dense lotus]

Blunt dmg to the thorax and head, resulting in them being blacked = death

[potent atlas]

and flank.

[dense lotus]

Blacked stomach is never an instant death

[steady pilot]

just wanna say again, tactec saved my ass from 2 7n1 shots from a svd to chest :P

it blocked the first one, and reduced dmg of the second and left me with 2 hp

lul

[strange mural]

ill be going in with nvg

[dense lotus]

Tactec is amazing ngl

[steady pilot]

the 30k nvg from skier are pretty lit ngl

[strange mural]

yeah im running the cheapo setup

[steady pilot]

although the flir/reapir is bae and op at night time

and idont have money issues to run them :P

[potent atlas]

reaper has higher fps

but no magnification

FLIR has low fps but magnification

[steady pilot]

miss me with the T-7 though

[potent atlas]

5m/ea

rn

[steady pilot]

[potent atlas]

6*m each

[lyric storm]

How do you get American dollars

[potent atlas]

Peackeeper

lvl 1

find dollars and you can buy them from him.

[lyric storm]

I see

[potent atlas]

Anything else you need help with?

[lyric storm]

What kind of stuff do I keep in raids

[potent atlas]

If you die you keep everything in your secure container Alpha/Beta/Gamma

depends on edition

and when you exfil everything you have on your character

[steady pilot]

@lyric storm i mean you gotta figure out whats worth money and whats not.

or if you need quest items..

[lyric storm]

Hmm

[steady pilot]

guns you want to keep..

depends.

psst loot veprkms cause they good and cheap to mod :3

[lyric storm]

Maybe if I survive

I'm already happy if I got a mosin

[steady pilot]

( sv-98 cheaper and better )

on market

iron sight with that bitch just like a mosin. slap an optic if you find one.

available rail ready too go

more ergo

magzines

[lyric storm]

Hey where's the gym entrance exit on shore line

I can't find it

[minor lynx]

found myself in a pickle, only 15k and fuck all in my stash no guns exc ept for a toz with some spare ammo. how would i go about unfucking my situation?

[steady pilot]

Scaving.

and request a sherpa to help you #sherpa-info

and if you REALLY want to...i dont recommend...you can reset your profile

and start fresh.

[iron plover]

Scav interchange nights

or reserve, lots of loot to sell

[steady pilot]

^ prety much

heres a cheap pmc loadout option

available rail for reflex/grip if you dont want to buy and can slap em on during raid :P

[potent atlas]

Skyline check youtube it has all exfils.

[steady pilot]

@lyric storm if i remember correctly, you have to go to the basement of west wing, the wing that has that barbwire jumpover at 2nd lvl, and theres a giant pool down there. i think extract is at very end

!wiki shorline

!wiki Shorline map

reee

shit i dont even see it on the wiki map

i dont scav at all so idk. lol

[marble blade]

https://gamepedia.cursecdn.com/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/f/f2/3D-Map-with-Callouts-Spawns-Extractions-Loot-Scavs2.jpg

[steady pilot]

oh east wing i think? hard to see.

east wing basement.

[marble blade]

yes

[steady pilot]

im tired af and i might be confusing the pool quest

lmao

[lyric storm]

Eeeee I just died so it doesn't matter

[steady pilot]

Oof

[strange mural]

HEY.

[steady pilot]

[strange mural]

WHO EVER SUGGESTED NVG

thank you.

very much

you blessed me with rng

https://i.imgur.com/tZrE3Oj.png

[steady pilot]

Why wouldnt you take 30k cheap nods

At night time

Oh you monster.

[lyric storm]

Bruh

I can't even kill 1 scav half of the time

[strange mural]

scavs become docile at tnight and i just abused them hard

sorry

[iron plover]

Those scavs had families..

[steady pilot]

I killed like 35 scavs on interchange with 700

[strange mural]

i love the hunter man

poor scavs

m80 pens them so hard

[steady pilot]

Hunter is cake walk when it comes to scavs

Well the 80 dmg is what helps the most

[strange mural]

i also got a west wing key and a labs key

ahahah

easy 400k

[errant snow]

Tarkov screwed me 😭

[strange mural]

also pro tip for new people:

get. a. cms.

[errant snow]

A what

[steady pilot]

Worth every rouble

[strange mural]

a surgery kit

it can heal black limbs

[steady pilot]

A cms surgery kit

[bold kernel]

i dont last that loong that i need that

[steady pilot]

Pssh

[errant snow]

Keep it in mind

[iron plover]

Yeah they really improve your survival chances

[errant snow]

For now I am gonna cry over that crash

[steady pilot]

Get a tactec or avs armoed rig

Efficient armor and rig

To save you more

60-70k

[lyric storm]

Where to get cms

[steady pilot]

All about that thorax protecting

Flesh market or jager 2

[lyric storm]

Still haven't unlocked both

[steady pilot]

You get lvl 3 just examining things

You can turtle on customs for 30mins and try and do your quest with less worry for pmcs

They still there. Just less of them. Minus pscavs

[lyric storm]

Bruh my game crashed

Topkek

[steady pilot]

Tarkoved

Welcome

You got 8 or 16gb ram

[lyric storm]

16

On a laptop

[steady pilot]

sucks in teeth

Yikes

[lyric storm]

My new pc still have some parts to ship

So yeah

[steady pilot]

👌

[strange mural]

Honestly
I love tarkov

Its the perfect game for me

[lyric storm]

Same

[steady pilot]

It's an addicting drug

[strange mural]

Exactly

[lyric storm]

Now I just need to wait 5 mins to get back into my game

Maybe even 10

[steady pilot]

[strange mural]

But yes
Scav ai becomes incredibly dumb at night

Their aim bot radius becomes like 20meters or so

[lyric storm]

I haven't played night time so far

[strange mural]

Interchange is the same at night as it is during the day

[lyric storm]

Mostly because I'm scared of some splinter cell guy with fully stacked gear running around the map

[marble blade]

ye i dont play at night because i dont have like top weapons etc

[marble latch]

fucking woods is a god damn maze for me

[strange mural]

Woods is a sniper porn map

[steady pilot]

Woods is a maze?

Was a horseshoe last I looked

[strange mural]

I mean landmarks are to hard spot on the map when you start out

But yes the lake is a easy way to get your location alongside the wall

Big rocks/lumberjard/buildings

[lyric storm]

Some guy named Hentai_Tv one tapped me

Hue

[steady pilot]

Gottem

[marble latch]

yup just got shot, no fucking clue from where

so im not sure how im supposed to do the quest lol

just looks like a matter of luck to me, looking at the right tree line

[grave root]

WHAT TASK YOU DOING ?

sorry caps xD

[marble latch]

kill 15 scavs lol

[grave root]

what map woods ?

[marble latch]

ya

[steady pilot]

Here is our woods map

Dint know if it helps

There is call outs and zeroing

[bold kernel]

ah

[strange mural]

Suicide fields is very accurate

[bold kernel]

that explains why my shots never hit from 1 end of the mill to the other

i always zero for 200

its 500...

[steady pilot]

Lul

[marble latch]

yeah issue here is the amount of people camping, it's just a matter of luuck finding them

[bold kernel]

missed out on so much loot becuase im a retard

[feral gorge]

Each yellow grid is 100m? @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

Tarkov logic is your bullets drop 3x irl value

[true furnace]

wowcher that map helped now how get out xD

[strange mural]

It has all extracts

[steady pilot]

Technically it's a wiki map

With our shit added

[bold kernel]

i swear ak shoots flat out to 300m but in tarkov its just
aight

                                                                                                          ima 
                                                                                                                    d r o p

[strange mural]

It does.

[desert hull]

isnt this true for all games with ballistics @steady pilot

[true furnace]

if you have map that shows the extracts like that could you send me them there really helpfull and better than what i can find

[desert hull]

wait until you play a battlefield game

its worse than tarkov

[steady pilot]

@true furnace check the wiki

All maps are on wkki

[strange mural]

Yeah but tarkov is supposed to be realistic

[steady pilot]

Wiki

[strange mural]

While bulletdrop is very non reliastic

[steady pilot]

Nikita hates snipping

So

[desert hull]

ppl think bulletdrop is realistic

but dont know that its not present for a long while after you shoot

so devs make unrealistically high drop

[steady pilot]

@bold kernel

Consider this for accuracy

[desert hull]

delta are you the fella that made that

[steady pilot]

No

[strange mural]

Turbo

[desert hull]

is it another SW_ fella

[steady pilot]

Yes tower

[desert hull]

yes snutri

[strange mural]

There are like three places in tarkov where rifle bullets would start dropping

I understand why the increased bullet drop exists

[thick harness]

Any tips for a poor person on how to increase the spend required on prapor to level him up?

[true furnace]

i check wiki i no find maps ?

[strange mural]

Sell stuff to him instead of flea

[bold kernel]

sell everything to him

[strange mural]

Master scroll down on wiki pages for maps

[steady pilot]

@thick harness buy and sell things back for 1/3 loss

[desert hull]

sell all stuff to prapor and uhhhhhhhhh make money so you can buy stuff

[thick harness]

yea ive got like 60k rubles

[steady pilot]

I usually buy ak parts and shit from him and sell grenades back

[thick harness]

and shit for inventory

[desert hull]

whats in your stash

[steady pilot]

Start running veprkms

They are 15k on market

Budget rilfle

[thick harness]

Ive gotten steamrolled by 3+ man squads on every geared run ive done today. Its been rough

[desert hull]

yeah squads blow

thats why you need your own at this point

[steady pilot]

Not really a a
Solo gam3

It's really meant for squad play

[thick harness]

Thats what they said about Rust... but im pretty good at that solo now. I like a challenge

[strange mural]

Solo is fun

[steady pilot]

Not saying you cant

[desert hull]

I mean if you start getting good at killing people 1v3

[strange mural]

Squads are fun too

[desert hull]

but you already said yourself you're getting wrecked by squads

[steady pilot]

Squads are bafoons half the time

[thick harness]

Im new its expected

[feral gorge]

@strange mural 3 places where the bullet starts to drop? You must have not tried shooting past 50m no?

[thick harness]

just would be nice to have one or two raids where i can sneak by em lol

[strange mural]

I mean if it was realistic

[feral gorge]

Ah

In that sense probably ye

[steady pilot]

It's not realistic cause bsg balancing

Oh well

Snipers would fuck your shit all day if they didnt

[strange mural]

Ye we know that aint wut im sayin

[steady pilot]

Technically my group does

On woods

[desert hull]

snipers still fuck ya day

they just have to be a little smart

[steady pilot]

We find the hold overs and zeros

So

[strange mural]

If bullet drop was realistic people would say its too little to be realistic

You k ow what im sayin

[steady pilot]

556 is a 400m effective round

[desert hull]

"whys bullet drop even in this game"

[steady pilot]

Shouldn't drop as much as does

[desert hull]

"is bullet drop broken?"

[strange mural]

Ikr

Testing out bullet drop

Whats wrong with it

youtube clickbait money coming in

[feral gorge]

Delta

You're starting to sound like one of those annoying milsim cucks lul

[desert hull]

TRYING OUT NEW SVD (IS BULLET DROP WORKING?)

[thick harness]

If there was bullet drop people would just memorize the pattern like other games, unless they added some sort of realistic aim bloom/drop based on wind, height, distance. And every gun/barrel/ammo combo would be unique.

Thats a lot of math

[strange mural]

There is bullet drop

[steady pilot]

Actually

Barrels are unique for accuracy and muzzle velocity in game

[strange mural]

Still havent changed my zeroing once

[steady pilot]

You get flatter trajectories with higher muzzle velocty rounds

[strange mural]

[feral gorge]

have u tried shooting past 100m?

[steady pilot]

You can use most scopes up to 300m

Using the mils

Parry this casual

@feral gorge

[desert hull]

why use gen4

if use adar

me no comprehende

[steady pilot]

Adar is bad

[strange mural]

995

[steady pilot]

Worst gun

[grave root]

i cant stand the ADAR when ever i get one i dont even break it down just goes straight on fence hate the gun 😛

[strange mural]

Cqc weapon kekw

[desert hull]

ADAR and AKM accuracy are the same yeah

[steady pilot]

Because of the 80 durability it becomes a .14 accuracy gun instead of a .06 accuracy gun

[desert hull]

oh

[desert hull]

AKM is .06 i think

[steady pilot]

As outlined by the transparent circle

That is adar true accuracy

[bold kernel]

use the sv-98 and ask yourself if theres no bullet drop

[desert hull]

i'll ask myself why the gun takes 0.5s to fire after I pull the trigger

if anything

[bold kernel]

that round plummets

[marble latch]

how do you set the zeroing?

[true furnace]

anybody got a good map for extractions on customs?

[steady pilot]

Pg&e up and down

you just have to run a ton of woods

stick to the trees

low spots

dont go in the open

learn where people sit and snipe

[grave root]

use a mosin on woods to kill scavs its how i done that task

[desert hull]

pretend you're hunting the most dangerous game

because you are

[steady pilot]

Because you have to zero your shots, you can test your splash on rocks

[grave root]

scavs spawn alot in saw mill

[bold kernel]

popular places to snipe in woods are the rocks by ruaf, and both sniper rocks

avoid places with a los to those

[grave root]

id rather hunt PMC the Scavs as PMC are easier to kill and no auto aim 😉

[bold kernel]

if you run through an open field, you are just asking to be one tapped

begging for it

[past lodge]

I and my newbie friends are dying way too often and way too early.

[bold kernel]

@past lodge no, thats normal. you are going to die ALOT while you learn

[steady pilot]

Playing too fast and not wearing good armor will do that

[bold kernel]

a ridiculous amount

[past lodge]

Mostly when we spawn behind the warehouses with that are south of the shack you get that thing for Skier in.

[bold kernel]

armor doesnt mean shit because a good player can one tap you through just about anything with a mosin

armor is best against scavs

[grave root]

@past lodge try play the game as if you are really there dont make moves that would second guess yourself in real life i know it sounds stupid but it helps

[steady pilot]

I tanked two 7n1 rounds with a tactec today

🤷

[errant snow]

I like when my game crashes and quest is suddenly not done and I don't have my gear

[bold kernel]

@steady pilot yeah, he diddnt shoot you in the head did he

[errant snow]

[past lodge]

Yeah. But we seem to immediately come under fire a minute out of spawn.

[desert hull]

y'all say armor dont mean shit until a newbie with 5.45 PS magdumps your tac tec

[steady pilot]

I had a zhuk 6a one time and someone mag dumped his 60 rd m4 into me

I lived

[bold kernel]

@desert hull a player can one tap you in the head through just about any helmet with a mosin

[desert hull]

yeah but thats the mosin

[past lodge]

I suspect one of the roof snipers has eyes on us. But sometimes it's another player from closer to the warehouse with the ramp near the pipeline and chain gate.

[desert hull]

as soon as I find out theres a dude with a mosin

my playstyle changes to rushing him

[bold kernel]

armor doesnt mean shit in the game for new guys besides scavs and some player engagements

[steady pilot]

Imagine using mosin

[desert hull]

cause I can bait a shot then just kill him

[past lodge]

It's a little discouraging that one shot one kill by scavs.

[steady pilot]

When sv98 exists cheaper

[desert hull]

sv98 has horrid trigger pull

[steady pilot]

When svd is 55k on market

[desert hull]

SVD is 👌 though

[bold kernel]

theres a reason the sv-98 is cheaper lmao

svd is bae

[past lodge]

Whelp. We are just working on it.

[steady pilot]

People who use mosin are a meme

It's not good anymore

[desert hull]

I use mosin

because jaeger

[steady pilot]

True

I meant unironically

[grave root]

@past lodge dont get run down by it bro you will searn learn where scavs spawn i was killedo n customs fully geared one shot to the head by a sniper scav about a hour ago

[bold kernel]

@past lodge just keep working at it man, you are going to die quite a bit, just try to learn something everytime you die

mosin not good anymore

lmao

[desert hull]

tarkov is not a game where you can get mad about dying

because legit 99% of the playerbase dies more than they extract

I made that up

[steady pilot]

Not since the -5 ergo meme cause of reddit

[desert hull]

but it seems true

[bold kernel]

use the svd then

[grave root]

whats extract xD

[bold kernel]

hello everyone, im new at the game, anyone willing to show me around?

@bold kernel @grave root just annoying that we seem to die more together than alone.

[past lodge]

Well work on it.

[bold kernel]

@feral gorge nice crusader... would be a shame if a panzer 3 was to look in its general direction....

[strange mural]

[steady pilot]

Lol!

[mossy vine]

calm yo ass

[desert hull]

when you buy a gun from flea and it already has the ammo you want loaded

[steady pilot]

[vague wind]

Why did they increase price of lucky scav box to 1.2 mil from 1 mil?

[desert hull]

Do we know why BSG does anything

[steady pilot]

They do what they want

[desert hull]

just coast with it

[steady pilot]

^

[vague wind]

:\

[steady pilot]

They might be implementing dynamic pricing again

So yeah

[vague wind]

Dynamic pricing?

[steady pilot]

Fluctuating with market

[vague wind]

Oh god no

[steady pilot]

Supply and demand

[vague wind]

Shits gonna be so expensive

[steady pilot]

Ehh

[strange mural]

well its all relative.

because other stuff will also be expensive

[steady pilot]

Things should be harder to get than they are

Considering g this games backgroind

[strange mural]

as demnad for things like gpu iincreases

[steady pilot]

And enviroment

I welcome it

[desert hull]

this is my rifle

there are very few like it but this one is mine

[steady pilot]

Ps320

[desert hull]

listen kid

[steady pilot]

🤢

[desert hull]

there are no other 6x sights I could find

that would go on that rail

rest of the assault scopes are 4x

at least if I'm reading it right

[steady pilot]

Get the kochetov

Linked search the kochetov

Find a nifty new rail

Or use pu like a normal human

[strange mural]

i just use the 3.5 pu

[desert hull]

I only saw two rails

[steady pilot]

Linked search the kocketov

[desert hull]

tri rail and a duct tape rail

[steady pilot]

You arent listening

Kochetov Mount for Mosin rifle

Kochetov Mount for Mosin rifle (Kochetov Mount) is a mount in Escape from Tarkov.

[steady pilot]

Buy that

Linked search it

[desert hull]

oh I c

then 34mm ring

[steady pilot]

No

[desert hull]

then 50x scope

[steady pilot]

Theres a rail

[desert hull]

yes I see the Arbalet Patriot

[steady pilot]

Yep

Or use pu like real.man

[desert hull]

no I am small man

with small 1 man squad

need all western advantages I can get

[strange mural]

pistol or not

with snipas

[steady pilot]

Ps320🤢

[strange mural]

[desert hull]

now the question is

what scope though

[steady pilot]

Vudu. Tac30

[desert hull]

@strange mural I pestol

[strange mural]

oh also

what pestols do yall run

the m9s

or

[steady pilot]

I bring veprkm as my back up weapon to boltacgion

Pistole are useless

[strange mural]

but you see

[steady pilot]

Cause 9mm trash

[strange mural]

that takes one loot weapon slot

[south jay]

Pistols are not useless

[steady pilot]

You toss it in a bush and get it back later

After you deck someoen

[south jay]

Use five seven

[desert hull]

oh shi

I need to use sniper mosin if I want kock mount

[strange mural]

Yes

[desert hull]

see I was trying to get away with non-sniper

[steady pilot]

15K ar that dmgs and pens most armor with more accuracy and less recoil or use 40k pistol

Hmm

[desert hull]

yes but not as cool

-100

[feral gorge]

@desert hull 1p59

[steady pilot]

1p59 scope bae

Minus the -10 ergo nerf

It was too op being15k on market and all

[feral gorge]

Bruh anything above 40 ergo on a gun is great

Literally can aim for days with 40 ergo and 1p59

[steady pilot]

But 90 ergo is zero stamina drain ads while standing :3

[feral gorge]

Ye I'm not gonna be arsed to get 90

[desert hull]

what have you done to this rifle

@feral gorge @steady pilot

can scope not be so damn tall?

[steady pilot]

But the bolt

[desert hull]

ok but look at Pu

[strange mural]

How much does the tx go for

[desert hull]

still tall, not so tall

[marble blade]

there was ton of ppl at shoreline atm, just saying its been fun playing there

[steady pilot]

Cause the rail is the bottom. Point

In line with the pu

[desert hull]

well 1p69 requires an additional thing

that I think bumps it higher

yeah the ring

oh well goofy rifle or not here I come

[steady pilot]

(Just use pu)

[desert hull]

but western advantages

[steady pilot]

Its Russian

[desert hull]

well

ok maybe

but this is a western thing to do

abuse old rifle

[steady pilot]

[desert hull]

does the scope being that high affect zeroing? @steady pilot

since I imagine the scope has to kinda look down if you set to 50m zero

[steady pilot]

They probably have it set to work normally

But maybe not

So you may hit a little high

[strange mural]

Yeah i think everything is magically just right

[desert hull]

so you think they probably are fake-zeroing the "barrel"

[steady pilot]

Go test your zeroes

[strange mural]

Need testing tho

[desert hull]

not necessarily the scope

[steady pilot]

The projectile will always leave the barrel the same

[desert hull]

ik

[tall chasm]

can somebody help me with getting throught the tasks and leveling up

[steady pilot]

It probably hits at a higher aim and higher point of impact

Slightly

[desert hull]

question right

tac tec stores mags on the front in front of armor

what are the consequences of having a full mag of ammo be hit by a bullet

[strange mural]

Ni hitboxes probably

[steady pilot]

@tall chasm

[strange mural]

No*

[desert hull]

I mean realistically

[jovial pulsar]

Dear God you get consistently shit on in Tarkov, but when it goes good it feels fucking great.

[steady pilot]

[desert hull]

not ig

[strange mural]

Realistically high

Would kill the mag

[desert hull]

I mean the ammo needs a bit of explosion to shoot right

what happens if a bullet is shot

[steady pilot]

Welp I'm going to bed

You guys are free from my autism till tomorrow

[strange mural]

Iirc that doesnt really happen

[desert hull]

you say that like I didnt just ask a question such as I did

[strange mural]

I think the bullets may burst

They shouldnt pose danger to you

[desert hull]

I mean whats the difference between a hammer striking a bullet to ignite the powder

and a bullet striking a bullet

[steady pilot]

A bullet wont necessaryiky go off unleas the primer does, but I'd it does it just fragments every where cause no barrel to push bullet

[strange mural]

Yes

[desert hull]

ye but that's 30 bullets in close proximity

would you get bullet confetti on your chest?

or just one

[steady pilot]

No

[strange mural]

No

[steady pilot]

Not through class 5

Lmao

[desert hull]

not into your chest

onto your chest

[strange mural]

Direct hits would be required and even then you would just kinda pop off a few bullets

[desert hull]

all over the front

[strange mural]

And for sure it wouldnt penetrate

[desert hull]

cause like imagine I magdumped this

thats why I wondered that

[coarse zephyr]

I haven't actually bought the game but I am very interested in the game. What exactly are the downsides of buying the cheapest version of the game?

[strange mural]

Would just lodge in between the bullets and mags

Smaller inventiry

And worse quaranteed pouch item

[desert hull]

you start out with the standard stash size

[coarse zephyr]

Is the inventory a really big part of the game?

[desert hull]

and you have the standard container

[strange mural]

You can upgrade it

And im still working the smallest inventory no problem.

[steady pilot]

Inventory space for loot is much smaller

[desert hull]

its annoying to have a small stash size but you can upgrade it later in game or just sell stuff as you go to liquidate items

the container size is a bigger deal but you can still work around it

[strange mural]

Its not a problem

[coarse zephyr]

Okay, that was my main worry, cool

[desert hull]

remember those are the standard sizes

[steady pilot]

The edge of darkness is a huge convenience package

[desert hull]

you arent being gimped

thats just the starter set

the expensive versions just make the game easier

early on anyway

[steady pilot]

Makes game much easier earlier on

Endgame pretty. Much the same

[subtle bison]

is this chat for asking questions or actually looking for someone to play with

[coarse zephyr]

Okay, cool, thanks guys/gals

[steady pilot]

#pvp-lfg

[strange mural]

Questions primarily

[desert hull]

the former mostly but you can do the latter if somebody doesnt yell at you

[strange mural]

You can ask for people to help you but most of the time no sherpas are in

Also, relevant
