And Bad at pening armor
Technically all bullets are deadly
The 5.7 round was literally built to be a good armor penetrating round
soft armor pening round*
Seems like a necked 556
Yey sorry
It can go through steel
@faint violet armor is not steel
Oh is it ceramic shit
Or 300 memeout
Depends on what armor you use
5.56 but pistol
300 memeout for the win
five seven round is slightly bigger
Level 4 and up is usually ceramic armor if I'm not mistaken
Oh God
Isn't the ash12 somewhere close to 50 beowolf?
@rich cloak lots of titanium
@rich cloak 12.7x55
It's not amazing
thereโs a full .50bmg ina shotgun shell
Isn't the 12.7 round for the dhskm hmg
Small and fast allways is best at pening armor
Alright
But. 50 should hurt really fucking bad
That's what she said
Guess I canโt use a 120mm m829a1
If you can find a handheld gun firing it 
๐บ๐ธ
There is shotgunshells with discarding sabot tho
How does slightly bigger mean anything
X28mm vs x45mm
Immensely different powder load
I want a handheld m256
Yeah
And may I present you .22-250
@faint violet the Benz engine?? ๐ ๐
Shooting a 556 round at 1200m/s
Yo where can you find handrills in the game
What
120mm smooth bore
The fuck
@lyric storm tech light on interchange
44 calibers long
Interchange is good, or hidden caches
I've never been to interchange
Otherwise the flea market
I'll go have a look now
Better start learning @lyric storm
Inb4 I die
Interchange is 
Go offline mode and scav as much as possible on interchange
Your playing tarkov right
.22-250 sounds scary af
Oli in interchange
re offtopic
Sorry
just blame ryan
Holy shit
22 250 vs 556
Aight
thatโs huge
Yep
How do I get fuel for generator?
find or buy
Find is easy on interchange
It's just called fuel?
how do i find a group top play wiht and teach me some stuff?

I HAVE returned, onwards to more frustration
Hello i come here today because of a serious frame drop problem everytime i get into a firefigth whenever i get shot at my game just completely froze for a few second, leaving me completely fucked each time, i basicaly can't win a figth even when i have the advantage of surprise, it sometime happens agaisnt scav too. Anybody got an idea to why it happens ?
my apostole
pc dying
@bold kernel have you tried #community-support ?
i shall go there then
good luck bud :\
@bold kernel how much ram you got

16gb
Processor?
leme check
When you play the game pull up task manager to see what's getting overloaded.
you cant have stable frames unless u have beast rig. thats what i tihnk tbh
Aka ram, vram, core space
should i OC my gpu? maybe ei get better frames
@bold kernel in the launcher there's a option to close the launcher when you launch the game. That's increased my framerate by a shit ton for some reason
laughs in laptop and no ingame problems
idd
my i7 your i5
^
nah but if you can play this game well on a laptop I envy you
dont make me call your work
cause my desktop can't do it
Kappa
and I have a solid system
Let me call McDonalds to get you a referral you burger flipper
i wouldnt even try playing on my old desktop
Hmm
That's pretty old and has low core performance
Bet your cpu just getting overloaded
i have FX8350 lul no issues :D
What GPU too?
I know Tarkov more CPU and RAM
Easy....Don't fight
Nikita pls give us the American-180
GPu is a GeForce GTX 1660 Ti
death by bees
sounds like modern cpu time for you
I seem to be retarded, but i close my eyes when shooting for some fucking reason
You're almost nearly on a toaster
So new mobo and CPU and ram for Xmas
Ddr6 gpu
3080 coming in June
@vague wind is there any chance your head looks like your profile pic?
2070 super is all you need for the next 5 years
Next gen GPU's are a meme and cash grab
muh 9th gen i9 9900
I"m a big kid so I have a 1440p 144hz monitor coming today.....Luckily EFT is well optimized.
I'm on a i5 6600k and OCed to 4.4ghz and its garbage
shoreline still unopt
Yeah @rich cloak thats just me /s
Yea shoreline is shit
i7 8750 gang
And never goes over 40 degrees Celsius
I thought shoreline was bad, then i played reserve
reserve is hella better idk why
I membah
and still ran as shit as it did
when i joined in like 0.7/0.8 it was still a dumpster fire
Reserve is so pushed
There is so much money there
And it's just the best map layout wise imo
milbase best
I needed to sell my 10 gunpowder today 
I seem to profit more from interchange
):
Time for a TT run
on wht map
Custom
how do you move around
Need to put these keys to use
TT no...
@vague wind once you have reserve down its better
g17 best
M9
I have an m9
g17 even better now
But I don't wanna lose it
you can use the stock
anybody up for a customs raid to kill scavs?
no
kinky
So, I just got about 600k from selling a Key I didn't need (It was one of the Reserve keys) What should I buy a few of to kit myself out with so I can actually kill people?
@modern dragon what level are you?
6...
@versed finch homie thats 16:9
ps ill buy reserve stuff off you at a better price to help u guys out lol
Because early on in .12 my framerate was fucking nards.
OH
@barren current blue
awwwwww
shiiiid
green is the shit
Is it?
green makes 7.62 bp
What do you need it for?
@modern dragon Do you prefer any kind of weapon?
Oh shit
I can give you lots of suggestions
What level of workbench?
used in work bench all types.....one of each is 7n39,
I prefer the kind of weapon that kills people with the least amount of resistance that isn't Bolt Action.
some good stuff at lvl 2 but the best is 3
@modern dragon hunter it is
Because holy fuck I hate taking 382y4089123764 bullets to kill a bitch in level 0732149230786 armor.
M80 should be all you need
vepr hunter + high armour pen value bullets = ded
I want a relatively fast gun that is powerful.
fal
By what they wrote I'd say they want a dmr
Level 6
Is there a case i can buy to put body armor?
Yeah everything that shoots 7.62x51 will be what you want
@bold kernel items case
But that's ridiculous expensive
Nice Thanks!
pinged
Is there a way to filter for Ammo Type?
Ohh shit, here we go again wasting money lol
What do you mean? @modern dragon
Like, a Gun that takes X ammo type
is it worth upgrading my hideout? i just spent like 400k and dont feel like i got anything beside the workbench
You just search for the caliber
Like : 7.62x39
And it will give you all types of ammo in that caliber
Dang, FALs are expensive.
Because they are amazing
How much is it to kit out an FAL?
@modern dragon vepr hunter is the same ammo but in a mediocre dmr
@rich cloak you can make 12/70 ap, 9m rip, m995, 7.62 bp, 7n39, m61, 9x39 bp and 9x39 sp-6 is the best you can make in the work bench
No 5.45x39
It's ~50k to ~70k
buy an AK74, mod it lightly, then use BT
Its 50k
And I don't make a whole lot of money per run
@versed finch I would upgrade the Intelligence center if you can. Makes scav runs quicker to get, but nothing is required.
@steady pilot it is if you are new and gearfear it is
Its 50k and shoots a round that literally 1 taps chests up to lvl 4 armor, and 5 on luck
@steady pilot its expensive as a base price and expensive to make viable for full auto
You dont full auto it @desert hull
just use a vepr hunter if you aren't gonna mod the FAL for auto and you're new
This isn't new
you should not be using in full auto till ur late game un less playing mid range full auto
Hunter is basically cheating the armor system 
he's level 6 and has 600k
There are a lot of cool things you can do with an upgraded hideout though. Its not my main focus, but I tend to pick an upgrade I want and progress towards that when I feel like it.
so I don't suggest him buying 50k guns
As you should
Exactly
So viability for full auto is a meme
The gun. Plus railed dust cover and optic and that bitch takes out suckers like no tomorrow
whoever is lvl 6 with 600k, ive been having luck buying a vepr hunter, swapping the rack with one you can put an optic on and then getting a holo or pk-06
idk who to @ but yeah noob advice if u need it on the cheap
thats good advice
The "rack" is a dovetail btw
^^^
Gotcha
Also, who thought it was a good idea to not let you dump your magazine when your gun is in the stash?
I have spent some money on kidding out a fal and it's somewhere around 120k I think
yeah vepr KM is also powerful
define dump @modern dragon
Like, pull the mag out...
Or is the Hunter not a magazine fed gun?
you just need to stay on semi
looking for someone to help me learn
it is
@desert hull oh yeah it is
@modern dragon the game wants to put the mag into your rig/pockets
so you need space there
I click Unload, and I have a Scav Vest on...
regardless if its in the stash
But it says "No space"
Just drag and drop it
Lul
How are M61 rounds?
Bad
M61 is the best armor penetration rounds
M80 best
not bad
i think m80 are the ones everyone says to get
M80 will one tap chests and are super cheap
i was using m61 but m80 seems good
but theres a damage threshold for one tapping to the thorax
and m61 doesnt meet it
whereas m80 does
and m80 still has a dumb amount of penetration
I got a M700 from some raid awhile back, and I think I bought some M61 rounds because Armor Pen.
But, if M80 is better, i'll do that.
you'd generally want M80
M80 is needed for the one tap chest potential
I'd suggest m61 in semi auto
Should I buy like, 2 mags and enough rounds for 3 mags?
Hunter
5 round mags or 10?
10
Gun came with a 10 round mag
Yes get a couple mags and put bullets in container and load as needed in raid
but those kind of questions are up to you
just keep the M80 in your container like delta said
But I'd bring in another 20 or 30 rounds in alpha/gamma.
and load from there in raid when you reload
how do you upgrade the container?
Implied. Lol
so when you put a half empty mag in rig
take rounds from container and drag to the half empty mag to fill it
but the ammo is still safe in the pouch
Bruh my tt run was a success
Buy a better version of game, beta from pk4, epsilon from prapor, kappa from all quests

Nein
Yup
im gunna be here a while lol
yeah and so is getting beta from pk4 or epsilon from punisher
epsilon is the easiest to get from those
and is only 1 slot less than a gamma
gunna have to give it a google then
ty turbo
Trashilon
better than alpha, ive been putting some meds in there and calling it a day lmao
anyone know the value of the sodium bicarbonate on flea market?
in raid @steady pilot

@desert hull thanks
do you keep the container between wipes?
no
No
unless you got it from buying a more expensive version of the game
in which case yes
Only if you have a certain package of the game
fuck i knew i should have bought it
you can upgrade anytime

for only the difference in cost
im gunna try wait it out
but this game is addictive
idk how long ill last
ty for all the help tho
I played first 6 months or so on standard account. It's totally possible. Bigger case is nice but can complete tasks, make money, and level up fine with standard
gamma is ez in comparison tho
usually rigs as far as economy goes
tactec is a level 5 armor rig that costs 70k for a full 40 durability one usually
whereas buying level 5 armor separate and a rig is like.... 130k at least
just a number I pulled out of my ass
if you were doing a super geared run you'd probably want them separate though
The wiki doesn't tell me how much I should put the key for sale on the flea market
just check the flea market
lel
click filter by item
filter by price least to greatest
Check flea. See what lowest price is. Price around that.
Go too high and it'll not sell. Go too low and you lose money;.
Mmmm 75k
damn i brought myself to buy lucky scav case on flea market
but is there a case where i can store scav knives?
i use them to store magazines hahah
Basically yes
Why is the scav box even more expensive now
im still impressed i managed to get lucky scav case since im playing for 3 days
1 mill to 1.2 mil to 1.4 mil
@vague wind who knows
y'all want to see something magical
Sell them.
they changed the J2 fuel again
Can always buy mags cheaply when you need them
now only 1 and its 30k now
gib money
That's so much stacking to be done 
it will auto stack when moved over
Ah, I always get every one after it's available ๐
I was mass selling
so i waited till the end to get the 
money money money aint the motive
I heard there are wallets in the game
there are
Are they viable
Whoa
depends on time
That's ebic
To a noob yes
I swear I gotta go find these on the flea market
junk is like 1.4m now
Bruh I only have 500k
Money is easy
takes up 16 slots in stash, gives 196 for junk
Went from almost nothing to 500k in a day
Once you run interchange
I didn't go interchange
I know interchange is like god tier loot
Rainbow gunpowder
What is the diffrenece between draw knife and knife in controls settings?
So draw knife is way faster?
Thinking if I should change draw knife to single tap so it is faster
Nah don't use the knife unless you're doing hatchet runs
Okey thanks. I will keep the bind then ๐
Imagine tagtec
i like the 74u
also in process of parting that out and selling
its ok but it's like some weird frankenstein gun @vague wind
trying to be an SMG but still firing 5.45
if i wanna sell 2 of an item and i want to sell them for say 8k each, do i put it up for 16k then?
74u struggles with 50m
@ember oak just click both it should say x2
if you wanted a compact SMG you'd just use a 9mm or 9x18 SMG
or even better a 4.6 or 5.7
It will automatically put for 8kea
and if you wanted a rifle you'd use a full size AK
9mm is hot garbage
@ember oak add offer, click both, set price. price will be for 1 item
You can atleast load 74u or 105 with 545 bs
Which actually kills people
I literally laugh at people who try to smg me
Can somebody help me with my gunsmith quest?
just a different playstyle
14 I think
i have 2 labs keycards, do i vendor or fleamarket?
I 180 them everytime

@patent arrow wiki
well smart ppl aint gonna let that happen
if they sneak up on you they're just gonna leg meta you
and if they're facing you head on they're gonna reposition
I am smart person who does not expose self and use bullets that actually work
I have all these
@ember oak flea 100%
9x19
but they are like 90k each and the fee is 10k so i would only be making 5k
Wait until later
@ember oak flea market for 200k
i sold a lab card yesterday for 200k
You can sell for 200k~~~~
or 195k to be exact
@ember oak so do you want trader money spent or reputation for market
is BS worth the cost?
Woo hoo! Got through a raid with my Hunter, and even scored an AK-74M and 2 mags. And a bunch of other random crap!
Absolutely
^^
You can have a cheap shitty gun, but the real thing that kills you is cheap shitty ammo, dont skimp on ammo
how do i know when looking at the fleemarket what costs only money and no items?
I just went to factory with kerd and came out alive with some loot so yeah
It says a price
Activate Windows
Not approximately

@ember oak you can filter trades out
Approximate prices are barter trades
@dawn cargo yes but when i click it it says items too
Scroll down and youโll see what I mean
Windows keys are so cheap
No the ones with only prices are for money only @ember oak
The ones that say โapproximatelyโ want items @ember oak
ok what do i put my labs cards out for?
lowest rn is 155k do i go 150 then
Or 180k
@ember oaklabs card is a hot item
^^
So if you see a shit ton of trades that ste grayed oit
if you got a few hours put it for 200kish if you want it now do 150k
Thay get grayed out
itll go up later
keep them they cost over 200k mine as well keep them and run some gear some day
il do 194999 each
@bold kernel follow the #news-setup and #521628660298678283
@bold kernel Try check #pvp-lfg, try accept the tick in #521628660298678283

Escape from tarkov is special
Special ed
Like you
Lmao
How good is 545x39 BT Ammo?
The AK-74M that I got during my last raid had 3 mags of it.
Official ammo table for Escape from Tarkov :
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ammunition
Best 545 I think
thats not ammo chart 1 second
i was on woods earlier and i ran to the extract and a fully geared guy ran towards it and i killed him but couldnt get out of the extract in time, i allmost cried ๐ญ
I can dm it to you
@dawn cargo Best 5.45 is BS or 7n39
Got it.
BT is effective ammo though
So, BT is effective. Got it.
@faint violet the fuck you just say
is damage on ammo the damage it does to flesh?
I guess I should keep this AK-74M just in case I get into CQC trouble?
what do you mean
Since my Hunter has a bigass scope on it.
@modern dragon if you need money dont run two guys its a lot of risk and if you kill someone you cant really take their gun
Well, I say "big" it's a 4x scope
you don't want to be carrying two primaries
Ak74m is probably the best 545 platform you could use
unless you looted one
Got it.
take a pistol
if you found an AK74 in raid definitely take it
if you have a long scope
but you don't want to start raids with two primaries
Ok.
So, grab an effective pistol to take with my Hunter also?
Imagine buying cheap ammo
Yes I carry bolt action and veprkm pistol bsckup
๐๐ฆ
if only you could make VeprKM Obrez
i went on NoFoodAfterMidnight's EFT Ammo and Armor Charts and does the damage value thats on that chart mean damage to flesh???
Cause its cheaper and more effective than trash 9mm
i tried it at the start and was confused why 7 bullets wouldnt kill someone
@versed finch tried what?
9mm is ok
using shitty ammo
yeah not a good idea
Out of a saiga 9
9mm not ok
@ember oak it only does damage to non armored parts
i was so tilted then i googled it and was like OH
damage is flesh damage
penetration is how much armor it can pen
thats all you really need to know atm
The fact that you have to mag dump an entire 9mm mag to barely kill someone is a meme
Leg meta
Should I take some kind of pistol with me to have as a backup for close quarters?
9mm is ok if you know how to use it
what do you expect
Exactly
ppl just want to bodycheck people with any round they use
And its trash
pistol why a pistol
In tarkov
Take a shotgun with .50 cals
if you look at the size difference between a 9mm and a 7.62 it makes sense
Armor is like x2 more effective in game than irl
oh rly
If they made armor more realistic 9mm could actually compete
yes i noticed that
45 acp would floor people
round pending
you mean getting magdumped by an AKM would still disable someone at the very least iRL?

i dumped a full mag into a player with my pistol and he didnt wanna die
this game is bs sometimes
@ember oak cause you have generic FPS mentality
and you're aiming center mass
hitting his body armor
@vernal anchor
turbo what would you say is better aiming for thorax/head and praying or aiming for legs and spraying
@desert hull well my main fps is csgo and in cs you only go for headshots, but the guide said in tarkov that i should aim in the middle of the guy
TT master race pistol btw
No.
any bullet that touches bare flesh on the head will one shot any player
besides if you get grazed by a shotgun pellet
Body shors suck
he said its easier to hit the chest
if in full auto aim center mass
Just tapfire heads
you dont want to full auto often either
With effective ammo
@ember oak Easier yes but not better.
usually better to go for headtaps
UM OKAY
Shoot bad
what
@split vapor Sherpa luck
God damn fukar
the dude i killed had it
full auto with ak makes your gun shoot airplanes
@split vapor marked room nerd
@feral gorge are you proud of those pics I sent
@desert hull very, now activate Windows kekw
stop
@split vapor yes idiot
marked rooms for the winn reserve is boss
so
what ammo does sks use?
Damn, the FN-57 is cheap AF on Ammo.
the loadout
I just bought 300 rounds for like, 500 dollars.
sks best ammo is bp second is ps
@barren current no like what numbers
Dem stats ain't chad
SKS is way cooler
cant change my mind
but ye probably use veprkm if you have smaller balls

only thing that really matters is the round
How bad of an idea is it to sell all my like 7 AKs and just run cheap ADAR builds with m995
tell that to the ADAR
the gun dont mean shit in the long run ammo is more important
ok?
Adar is ๐๐
@desert hull sks bad
no u
Bro hop off that chart
The Adar is good
cause your aim is good but your gun aint
No
Adar is shit
Adar is good unless u use it past 100m
if you were in CQB
Ok boomer
just use a god damn AK74
And AK does CQB better
And idfk
no
Hello I am a new player lvl 4. I am looking for other players to teach me the game
I donโt use commie shit
Use a m4
ADAR is a DMR
thought this to help people not bash everything?
at least in usage
Lmao no
Adar is not a dmr
a carbine
Dmr is a designation
whatever
Is a carbine
It's a civilian ar15
You imbecile
at the end of the day the round is 100% more important then what gun you choose
dont go in CQB fuckin around with an ADAR
but also don't go fuckin around sniping with it cause it cant hit anything
I do well with it cqb so Iโm fine
AKs it is then
I'd smack the shit out of you with whatever I currently had lol
definitely AK kalash
Also @desert hull @normal bear there is new light on the adar. The 100% durability bug is no longer a thing when you buy the adar and will degrade normally. The scavs typically spawn. With an 80% version. This version you avoid.
m995 to the head says otherwise
Next question, what's the superior AK
?
I'm finna dip cuz my battery is like 7%, I'll come to argue later
@steady pilot nice so you can use it normally if you buy it
Adar hater
just cant use scav adars
My battery is 19
Adar shit btw and sks shit too
Might have to hop off
@desert hull we met at bus?
Basically if its it 80 durability
does any other gun have shitty durability if found on scvs?
@zealous forge there is no superior AK it depends on the build u are goin for
@feral gorgeadar isnt so shit anymore it got hotfixed
If you buy it at 100% durability it doesn't degrade to 80 after one raid
As far as I know yes
No
@steady pilot but is it still shit tard accuracy at 80?
well GOD DAMN
@feral gorge you arent listening I said if you buy it its 100 durability and degrades normally
glad I got curious and checked

does VSS have super fast degredation?
The 80 durability bug is gone except for scav adars
I have only shot maybe 200 bullets out of it
if i play as scav are other scavs (ai) goner attack me?
ai scavs no
No
@steady pilot I listened you moron you didn't get the question.... If you buy one that's 80 dura will it still suck?
pscavs, yes
Like scav adars
@azure arrow DONT TRUST ANYTHING THAT MOVES
Player scavs are retards most of the time
the amount of times i thought it was a ai scav and get shot in the back
how much do you have to shoot a VSS to get it to 80 dura
I repair my guns every raid
Lmao?

Delta big dumb
NGL I've never repaired guns till now
cause I usually never lived long enough for it to matter
Me neither lmfao

Well
thats better
๐
I've gotten several AKs down and a few VEPRs down to 60 dura
๐คข
whats wrong with that VSS you elitist
I want versatility
Not a pso
he just thinks everything he dont like is shit


๐



ouch i am so hurt
