I organize it everytime I put loot in there.

Bullets still on the top as you can see

I have a spare 105 and 303
Will just give it to someone here later
Not even worth selling it
Armored rigs are big brain for budget
I remember when my budget was 50k
Now it's 300k pog
halcyon pebble
what does this actually do? Will it put me in most populated server with lowest queue time or will it just select the server with lowest ping?
robust jackal
Next week gotta double that
Think it will try a good mix @halcyon pebble
Populated and decent ping
acoustic timber
im still kinda new to the game are ai's scavs suppose to be like this
i coulda fucking died
halcyon pebble
wdym, ai scavs as in got a hit on you or as in camped there?
frank beacon
does that happen on online mode?
acoustic timber
yeah this is online
frank beacon
is that why scavs follow me around like dogs
acoustic timber
i went up to the scav
i just trimmed it
but i dont understand how i shoot him and he turns around and the very first bullet he fires is a direct headshot
halcyon pebble
ah they do be like that. u were crouched as well.
hollow cobalt
i need a guideeee
acoustic timber
right when the very first bullet i shot
he turned and shot
and landed me in 2 points in my head
halcyon pebble
If u were standing it would most likely get ur thorax. For me they usually get hits on thorax, arms, rarely head, if I'm standing.
but he shot with shotty, if that was buckshot, u could have gotten hit everywhere.
robust jackal
Crouch is no good against them
Either prone or stand
But yeah
Ai has aimbots
Shoot your questions and we will do the possible to help
halcyon pebble
@acoustic timber just aim at head next time.
robust jackal
Also
hollow cobalt
@robust jackal can i play eft with you? i need some assisitacne or @halcyon pebble
hollow cobalt
ok
halcyon pebble
@hollow cobalt I'm trash. trying to grind pmc kills on shoreline atm.
robust jackal
@acoustic timber you were wearing a helmet?
You should have died there
Although i say that i survived two scav shots to the face in a row when i started
It was in woods
Penis helmet saves the day
hollow cobalt
ok
wary crypt
awww so furstrating. successful scav raid, under a minute left, thought i knew where extract was. walked RIGHT past it and kept going thinking it was further. timed out 😦
robust jackal
Also bold of you to go factory with a pistol
I go either there with some considerable gear or when i get a scav with a gud gun
halcyon pebble
factory scav runs are ez weapons tho.
robust jackal
Sad
Have a golden chocolate
Yeah usually do it when i get a half decent scav gun
Not when i got a pistol or toz
Haha
Thats for sure
acoustic timber
i should of put my face sheild on
but i didnt and still survived
straight up shot me in my head in the very first shot
robust jackal
Wich gun he had?
acoustic timber
idk
robust jackal
Also i see you just ran to the extracr after that

but he did fuck up my kiver m

Why do I always end raids with only two working limbs

because scavs love blowing arms and legs off

I have found a perfect video to instruct new players of how the game is

It's a big stash where you can put the small shit you find in raids. Wires, cigarettes, tape, whatever

So I'm using several backpacks to stack them and put items into but when I go to the dealers some dealers wont let me open them on the sell screen to get to the items.
steady pilot
cause you need to take them out

Like skier buys attachments I have some attachments in a bag but cant open the bag
steady pilot
there is no work around
steady pilot
not really

The dealers buy only empty backpacks/vests
makes sense cause you don't want to sell shit by mistake

Yea ik I'm trying to sell the attachments inside my bag not the bag
I just want to open it to sell the attachments

oh I get you, yeah I guess it's annoying. Still goes with the explanation to not let you sell shit by mistake

So this rebel ice pick you need to extract on reserve, if I put it in my melee slot and die and someone loots it is it gone? I don't think I've ever lost a melee weapon on this game yet.

nobody can loot your melee weapon from you
which is why if you want to buy it, it's like 2 million rubles

anyone get a glitch where u launch the game and it freezes? i cant even close the game i have to reboot every time. ive been trying to launch for the last 40 minutes. please help if you can

Question about insurance. If you insure an item and someone else picks it up but dies and doesnt extract do you still get it back?

Anyone willing to serpa me through prapors second quest?

@thick harness as long as somebody doesnt extract with it you still get it
even if they move it off your body
you can also use this to ditch items in a bush somewhere and take scav or players you've killed items

Ok thanks the wording is kinda weird it says if its used by someone it wont be returned but wanted to check. Thx

what's the deal with the optional part of tasks? do you get more exp or anything for doing em
tender void
no
just you can go and find the keys to open taht quest there...or just buy the key from market
main sky
Also, what is the easiest way to earn money at the beginning, I used to do cheap pmc runs but they get more expensive now that you have to heal up between runs
tender void
it literally is optional
@main sky just liv
and you get money easy
scav runs also is free money
so run those more then.
lofty vortex
My personal recommendation is to run scavs and just play like a coward. You can pawn off your whole kit and get a decent bit from it

What would be the best map to start with

First loot on whatever he gets to first, regardless of kill provenance.

looting your own kills is an unspoken rule

everyone goes out with equal loots by the extract
we play as team so we better loot and profit as team

nothing is wrong with taking every last ounce of loot off of someone you solely killed

But I thought of getting a good armor so I don't die to some lucky scav on my back
But something I wouldn't mind losing
Maybe less than 100k is good
like, anything from 0 to 100k
half jackal
So my two suggestions are
Zhuk-3 Press armor from flea, as long as its 0/40-50
it repairs for ~15k and it repairs really well
half jackal
so its about 35-45k for level 3
or Tactec - its an armored rig
70k for level 5 armor
steady pilot
AVS rig and tactec are the most effecient armors you could buy right now
half jackal
and its also a rig
shrewd raven
steady pilot
buying a rig + armor is a meme
half jackal
they both repair really well
steady pilot
and poor investment
half jackal
Tactec OP
brazen owl
Tactec is the rig?
steady pilot
yes
brazen owl
half jackal
its an armored rig/platecarrier
steady pilot
tactec is a class 5 armored rig
faint violet
👁️
steady pilot
avs is a class 4 rig that covers stomach too and has a fuckton of space
half jackal
they also dont get looted by geared bois
since they're cheap and large
and take up rig/armor slot
half jackal
uh I think AVS has worse repair
brazen owl
Or 63k for a 20.6/50 AVS?
steady pilot
doubt
brazen owl
@half jackal 50k for 7.3/40 TacTec
faint violet
@steady pilot do you doubt my power
steady pilot
you can buy the goldent tt pistol and do a fresh trade
half jackal
which means 70k for level 5 armor with the rig space of a 30k rig
steady pilot
for 40/40 tactec
half jackal
if you have level 3(?) rag
steady pilot
if trader lvl unlocked
half jackal
or is it level 2
faint violet
this is complicated
solid gulch
how much is a golden tt
faint violet
just buy paca and pray
half jackal
~65k
half jackal
tactec is so good

high learning curve, not a cod kiddie game

@obtuse pulsar laarge learning curve

@brazen owl To answer your question, as a Scav I often avoid combat as much as I can and go for the spots where I know there's loot
brazen owl
now that you have "read"
silver hornet
So I pretty much just go for the small loot, although guns are nice too
lofty vortex
A thing I did was start running customs and finding all the hidden caches
They're usually out of the way but you can find good stuff in them
brazen owl
I have a hard time finding other PMCs as scav on custom
silver hornet
I usually hit up boilers, with the factory key spawn + two weapon boxes, also the computer van is super close
brazen owl
Hold on, lemme see where those places are
main sky
So I upgraded from standard to eod, how do i get the EOS stuff
silver hornet
I don't bother going for PMCs unless they're either actively seeking to kill me, or if I have a clean kill on my hands
brazen owl
Where is boilers, @silver hornet ?

It's the warehouse closest
brazen owl
Next to ZB-1011?
silver hornet
See the small block where ZB-1011 is? It's the bigger block- yep
brazen owl
So there's a key that spawns there?
lyric storm
Bruh how tf do the scav ai work
lofty vortex
Oh dang thats a nice map, Im gonna have to steal that one
silver hornet
There's some good loot to be had in there. Dead Scav (found fuel conditioner on him once), and the rare chance for Factory Key in the lockers in the middle of that warehouse
lyric storm
I didn't aggro them while I was playing as a scav and they one tapped me
silver hornet
There's also two big weapon crates on the boilers themselves
Did you kill a Scav at all that run?
lyric storm
No
silver hornet
Player Scav, right?
lofty vortex
You might have been killed by one of scav bosses guards if it wasnt a player scav
lyric storm
Movement didn't look like one
lyric storm
I was also coming back to a place I just looted
silver hornet
Scav bosses, Scav boss guards, and raiders kill PScavs
lyric storm
And a ak-105
silver hornet
Found a fuel conditioner there lol
brazen owl
silver hornet
The only barrel stash I can find is the one by Milbase CP
brazen owl
Doesnt matter which place I spawn, I usually take that route
lofty vortex
My slightly more experienced friend calls them garbage but I've found pressure gauges, the expensive sealing foam, thermometers, fuel conditioners, and other nice stuff in them
brazen owl
Well on ZB-1011 theres one under the pipe behind it
Really easy to spot
Save this image, cincinattus:
lofty vortex
Thats the one I've been using to find them
silver hornet
Best stuff I've found on them is fuel conditioners
brazen owl
My only problem right now is knowing what is valuable and what is not
lofty vortex
Yeah, that just comes with time
silver hornet
That map is way better than the one I saw
gritty cape
@lyric storm you're in luck. sv98's arent that expensive. ive seen some for about 40k
cerulean cape
How's shoreline without keys? Could technically buy em all but meh, wanting loot run other than labs
gritty cape
also you can trade for one with prapor lvl 2 i believe
@cerulean cape i think its fine for scavenging
half jackal
interchange will be more profitable
cerulean cape
Hm K, so stick with reserves lol
gritty cape
interchange is definitely a money maker
half jackal
only appeal of shoreline rn is ledx spawns and pvp, otherwise IC/Reserve
lofty vortex
I definitely find interchange better when you dont have keys.
cerulean cape
Need to get a decent ic route, hear it's good but never have near as much luck as I did in labs
half jackal
Just run oli/tech stores
gritty cape
I found a 700k key in terminal near resort, nice find
half jackal
500-900k/run
gritty cape
ez pz
silver hornet
I really don't like running Interchange
cerulean cape
Most my oc runs are scav where everything's been looted lol
silver hornet
way too fucking dark for my tastes
lofty vortex
The store across from the locked medical room also has good stuff
cerulean cape
I'm starting to love ic night time though
lyric storm
Bruh I can't even make money because if how poor I am
cerulean cape
Debating if I should snag kiba keys as well
gritty cape
interchange is scary but so fun. i got my first player kills on interchange haha
lyric storm
I just run around with a hatchet
cerulean cape
Do scav runs
cerulean cape
Might snag kiba keys and try dif interchange routes
gritty cape
@cerulean cape have you gotten the condensed milk?
cerulean cape
For what?
gritty cape
the kiba key
cerulean cape
Nah, planned just buying on flea
lofty vortex
You get one of the kiba keys from doing the gunsmith questline
gritty cape
you need 2 keys i think
cerulean cape
Money isn't a real issue, have 18m,just want a better money maker now that I'm done w/ labs since ledx are cheap now
Yeah you do
gritty cape
so lvl 4 therapist and the gunsmith line will give you the quest
lofty vortex
You get the grate door key from the gunsmith questline
The other one might be in your interest to just flea market
gritty cape
sounds good to me. its a gun store down the hall from two stores that can contain high price items
cerulean cape
Ye but I can buy em ezpz. And if doing lots of ic no reason not to
gritty cape
will you be running interchange a lot?
lofty vortex
Gunsmith is easy xp though
cerulean cape
I mean decent amount, the keys are only like 1.5m iirc
half jackal
oli - even after its been looted - is easily 200-300k
brazen owl
Does "breach" works on a door? I have tried on so many doors and it never works
And I also see no one using it
half jackal
only on certain doors
gritty cape
no
lofty vortex
Breaching only works on select doors
gritty cape
oh neat
half jackal
its planned that it will actually work as intended
lofty vortex
Generally speaking most doors won't
half jackal
same with lockpicking iirc
you also have to breach in the direction the door opens
cant break a door off its hinges
gritty cape
yeah dont be kicking everything down, youll be making lots of noise and little progress
half jackal
so right now its useless
cerulean cape
Aight no kiba then. Just budget vepr every run on ic with no armor or helmet lul. Way cheaper than labs runs
cerulean cape
Ah true bag. Berkut op
lofty vortex
Vepr hunters are always good, vepr akms are good if you're shooting unarmored targets
I leveled strength by beating the hell out of a friend
cerulean cape
Vepr akm is a monster regardless, hit head and it's great, even w/ ps ammo if ur super cheap
gritty cape
i just found the key for office 112, blue keycard here i come
faint violet
Can I level up strength by drop kicking my friend
lofty vortex
But muh bitcoin farm
lofty vortex
Like, a lab access keycard?
lofty vortex
Personally I recommend selling it until you get a VERY good feel for the game. Labs has tougher scavs in it.
lofty vortex
Its good early money
brazen owl
yeah
i've been using my money to buy guns armor and bags to gain more money, is that a good use or should i upgrade my hideout?
lofty vortex
Only the early hideout upgrades cost flat cash, later ones will require parts
lofty vortex
My logic is hideout upgrades dont go away, but you can lose guns and armor
Especially if you have the basic version of the game because those stash size upgrades are critical
lofty vortex
Wipes probably will
Most likely, actually. They're brand new so I can't say for 100% sure
faint violet
Why do wipes exist
faint violet
I don’t wanna lose my 10 toz
lofty vortex
There wont be another wipe for a long time
faint violet
💦
brazen owl
Whenever I'm lucky to find a PMC fooling around I'm unlucky to only have a pistol
brazen owl
click buttons, profit
neat spruce
Shotguns with slugs are deadly. So much fun!
lofty vortex
My personal favorite is grizzly slugs because if they're not wearing armor they just fall over dead
Very good for killing shturman
marble blade
at least scav shotguns cannot hit anything beyond 10m
simple urchin
trying to give ragman these pilgrim bags but because i have other bags stacked into one of the pilgrims i have, the quest is bugging out
gave in 3 pilgrims already and still shows as 0 handed in
(edit: reloading game shows them as handed in)
obsidian eagle
looking for a hand on customs if anyone is available, do i need a key for room 206?
lofty vortex
I think so? let me take a look
obsidian eagle
actually i do have the key, but is anyone with decent experience able to run with me
bold kernel
@obsidian eagle you need the 206 key if you are doing the water quest for therapist
obsidian eagle
i have a few of the keys
also, found the bronze pocket watch in the truck last night, but not in my inventory. how do i complete the quest?
lofty vortex
Quest items like that go into a special quest inventory
You just go to the quest giver and you should see a "turn in" button
obsidian eagle
neither are there
something even popped up in bottom right when i found the watch.
bold kernel
if you live and extract, and go back in before turning it in, and die, you lose it
lofty vortex
So when you're inventory, go to the tasks tab at the top. If its not in the inventory on the right you dont have it
brazen owl
Guys where can I find the key to open the locked doors of Custom's Gas Station?
lofty vortex
I found those keys in the backpacks of scavs\
They're called cabinet key and "the key to the gas station storage room"
obsidian eagle
says can be found as loose loot
next ruin
Any noobs want a shoreline run all to themselves?
lofty vortex
I haven't found them sitting anywhere, just saying thats how I found them
next ruin
US server
obsidian eagle
i havent even played shoreline yet
i may be a little too noob for you
or are you an in-game god? @next ruin lol
glacial jay
id be down to try a shoreline but i havent played on it either
lofty vortex
I feel like the time that player scavs enter needs adjustment. Especially on interchange
brazen owl
@steady pilot what ammo should I use on the ADAR?
Considering the same idea of using 7.62 BP as you said yesterday
lofty vortex
If you want to buy it right from a trader, m855 from peacekeeper but its not armor piercing
M995 is the armor piercing ammo
strange mural
Basically 995 is the way to go
obsidian eagle
anyone wanna run with a noob maybe teach me a few things?
lofty vortex
Oh my god ive been running warmage ammo, turns out its terrible
steady pilot
its m995 or bust. but m56A1 if you're cheap i guess @brazen owl
yes warmage is super horrible unless you intentionally hit legs.
brazen owl
M995 it is
steady pilot
make sure your adar is 100/100 durablity and not a 80/80 version like scavs spawn with
lofty vortex
No wonder I couldn't kill anyone with armor. Guess ballistic tip ammo is only really good for deer hunting lol
naive tusk
Yessir
steady pilot
you can have cheeap weapons but cheap ammo will get you killed
lofty vortex
^this
steady pilot
you can either spend the 20-30k killing someone or lose your 100-200k kit :)
you do the math
:P
lofty vortex
I've definitely found myself getting destroyed through armor a lot more
strange mural
Players generally use bullets that pen
brazen owl
2nd ammo in case i cant afford M995?
lofty vortex
Probably m855
strange mural
M56a1
steady pilot
M56a1
