[robust jackal]

its love

[frank beacon]

hes trying to farm ur friend dont tell him

[robust jackal]

you two attracted to each other

its true love

[desert hull]

we killed a 3 man though @robust jackal

[lyric storm]

I can't find people on the Asian server

Why are we so rare

[desert hull]

I weighed 78 Kilos on exit

my inventory

[frank beacon]

i killed 2 duos on customs earlier and while i was healing an AI scav just walked literally directly to where i was hiding

and my gun had literally one round

i shot and heard a click

scav said bang bang

i say bang bang to my table

because i hit it like 5 times

[steady pilot]

[frank beacon]

[lyric storm]

Sed

[digital zephyr]

I only have my knife left and I can't do anything

any tips

[desert hull]

@digital zephyr scav runs

avoid fights entirely

[digital zephyr]

I see

map?

I image factory is not possible

[desert hull]

why is this dudes ADAR so nice @steady pilot

why so much effort for ADAR

[latent dagger]

hot

[frank beacon]

adar is very cool

[desert hull]

swap to M4 lower already

jesus christ

[steady pilot]

@desert hull adar is fine

[desert hull]

dont tell me thats fine

[steady pilot]

6k receiver vs 19k receiver

[desert hull]

dude has the best looking ADAR I've ever seen

100k+ in mods

[steady pilot]

only diffeerence is full auto

[desert hull]

doesnt put an m4 lower

also using M856A1

not 995

[steady pilot]

m996 is 1k rouble a round

[desert hull]

1.5k earlier

either way stop modding ADARs god damnit

not to that extent anyway

pointless

[steady pilot]

its not

[desert hull]

the gun has low recoil to start with

[steady pilot]

they are the exact same.

[desert hull]

what is

[steady pilot]

m4 low and adar lower. m4 is just full auto.

[desert hull]

I know

[steady pilot]

if i had an m4 i would mod it like that and just tapfire

so why not just use adar instead

[desert hull]

Im saying its pointless to mod an adar as such

[steady pilot]

its not.

[desert hull]

at that point buy the M4 lower so you have the select fire

[steady pilot]

no need

[desert hull]

high need

[steady pilot]

i can tap faster than full auto would help me

[desert hull]

much better investment

[frank beacon]

[desert hull]

also he entered the raid at this durability

smite him already @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

My replica of my irl ar15

[frank beacon]

pics or it doesnt exist

[steady pilot]

Mk12 is a semi auto DMR

That military uses

Nothing wrong with having select fire or not

https://i.redd.it/qpqc5og9us011.jpg mk12 are cool as fuck

[frank beacon]

in tarkov when 🙂

[digital zephyr]

alright I got out of customs with a full inventory what kind of kit should I try and put together for a run

[frank beacon]

i mean what do u have

[desert hull]

is adar a real thing anyway @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

its a russian version of an ar15 yes

[digital zephyr]

I came out with shitty body armor 2 aks a mosin inf. with a silencer and 2 backpacks

[steady pilot]

its basically jsut an AR15 but made by a russian company...

[desert hull]

is it licensed

[steady pilot]

you act like its some

magical gun

[desert hull]

I was asking if its a real thing

[lone delta]

Is there any reason why you would finish a skav run, then when you go to transfer your items 70%+ are gone?

[frank beacon]

use the mosin honestly

[digital zephyr]

should i bring armor and a rig or just mosin and pocket bullets

[desert hull]

@steady pilot Is it licensed?

[frank beacon]

you dont need a rig with the mosin

[steady pilot]

its made by russia

[frank beacon]

put the rounds in ur pocket

[steady pilot]

what kind of question is that

[desert hull]

so they just stole it

[frank beacon]

you can bring armor if you're afraid of a scav blowing ur guts out

you will find plenty on scavs anyways

[grand crow]

I died by someone camping emercom

[digital zephyr]

oh i also found a mp-153 i heard its pretty ok

would that be better

[steady pilot]

@desert hull https://cdn3.volusion.com/jreda.hxvad/v/vspfiles/photos/APAR148018C-2.jpg?v-cache=1563949565 this is a ar-15 lower

https://cdn3.volusion.com/jreda.hxvad/v/vspfiles/photos/APAR148018C-2.jpg?v-cache=1563949565 this is also a m4a1 lower

[frank beacon]

mp-153 is my factory only weapon

[desert hull]

I was not asking

"Is a semi auto Ar15 a thing"

[steady pilot]

Look at the lower.

[desert hull]

I was asking "Did a russian company actually completely steal a design and sell it"

like high profile design

[steady pilot]

they didn't steal anything

americans make AKs

??

[desert hull]

I mean

thats stealing

[steady pilot]

no its not

[desert hull]

if you aren't paying for the license you stole it

[real river]

how can i add a ekp site to an sks?

[desert hull]

is it an OP_SKS

[steady pilot]

sigh

[desert hull]

whats the difference between a company making knock-off anything else

[real river]

nah tapco...

[desert hull]

and a company blatantly stealing a gun design

[steady pilot]

do you know how many companies make ArmaLite-15 receivers in the united states?

There's no fucking liscense

[desert hull]

patents aren't a thing?

[frank beacon]

dont think u can ozy

[steady pilot]

the only thing you can patent on it isgraphic designs

[river ruin]

what is the number that shows on the bottom right of screen?

[real river]

i trierd searching for an op_sks nothing came up, what is that?

[desert hull]

maxim and browning had a patent war over a tiny part of a gun browning made

[frank beacon]

you can put a rail on the gun and put a sight on it

[desert hull]

and we're over here just making the entire gun the same now

[river ruin]

"100" when i aim down sight

[steady pilot]

@river ruin that is your zero

[desert hull]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A85S8u7L4j8

good watch

[acoustic timber]

why are scav raiders insane

[frank beacon]

because they have american bois

[steady pilot]

your iron sight is "zeroed" to have a trajectory to a 100m distance.

[frank beacon]

[steady pilot]

so wher your cross hair is aiming. you shoot. if it lands evenly with the iron sight, its 100m.

[desert hull]

maxim patented a gas piston system

browning made a kinda sorta similar system in one of his guns

maxim found out and went legal on him

browning went and made the gun have absolutely no relation to anything maxim made in response

pretty sure thats how that went but been a while since I read

[digital zephyr]

is there any attachments worth using on the mp-153

[desert hull]

sights and lasers

possibly supressor

[acoustic timber]

do spec equipment do anythign

[desert hull]

also a better stock system

but none of the above if you're new and are just looking for a good shotgun

[digital zephyr]

is there a "best" ammo that I should be using

[desert hull]

for what

[digital zephyr]

the mp-153

[desert hull]

do you want buckshot or slugs

[digital zephyr]

i heard slugs can be hard to hit with since legs are the best target on armored players

maybe thats bs

[desert hull]

its just player skill

you're shooting a single projectile instead of a spread with slugs

but yes shotguns will be aimed at the face or if the face is blocked by a faceshield, the legs

[digital zephyr]

so would you say slug is better but harder

[desert hull]

not really

different uses

[digital zephyr]

I'm thinking factory

[desert hull]

if you want to be safe just buy 8.5mm magnum buckshot

[digital zephyr]

sounds good

[desert hull]

the most powerful buckshot

extremely cheap

50-65 roubles per shell

[granite pine]

anyone down to help a complete noob lol

[digital zephyr]

no because I am one

[granite pine]

lmfaooo

[frank beacon]

does anyone know what fuckin barrel this is

[steady pilot]

AK's dont have barrels.

like interchnagable barrels

they come attached to receiver.

[desert hull]

@frank beacon is TGP silencer

[frank beacon]

nvm i keep forgetting u need to put on adapters and i sit there for a while confused and thanks turbo i decided to put the hybrid on since i had one in a bag

[desert hull]

no no no

hybrid is 100k+

sell and buy another

[frank beacon]

100k

wtf

cant ledx spawn in the medical center thing on interchange

[digital zephyr]

hey how do i turn in the shotguns for the debut task

jk found it

[placid stream]

what's the best map of Factory? i'm struggling with the extacts

[frosty crown]

wtf is the difference from all the different aks?

ak-74m, akm, akm/vpo, ak-105

wtf is the difference

[real river]

what kinda body armor should i be using in the beginning that wont break the bank?

[frosty crown]

do u have lvl 2 ragman?

[real river]

no just started today

[frosty crown]

dont worry bout it then

just use the armor u pick up

off scavs

[real river]

ty

[silver hornet]

@real river I always run PACAs and SSh helmets

They're decent for what they're worth

[spare wolf]

is there like a lfg channel, all I see are the basic text channels.

[silver hornet]

go to #521628660298678283

[spare wolf]

@silver hornet I did check the box, it didn't give me access.

[silver hornet]

[lapis mauve]

try again or restart discord

[spare wolf]

restarting discord did not help

[lapis mauve]

a mod might need to give you the roles

sometimes the bot is dead

[spare wolf]

gotcha, guess ill try to get ones attention.

[dusky hazel]

Done

[placid stream]

what 7.62x39 ammo should i be looking to use? BP?

[sand apex]

bp is the bset for that

ps does well enough but it wont' pen good armor very well

[placid stream]

cheers

can anyone help me with putting an optic on a vepr 160?

sorry vepr 136?

what is the right mount? opinions online are all different

[lapis mauve]

best option is bastion dust cover

about 6k

[placid stream]

so i throw that on and then i can put a reflex or whatever?

[lapis mauve]

or tt01 if you want a red dot

tt01 lets you add a red dot, bastion lets you add anything

[placid stream]

thanks dude 🙂

what does a weaver mount let you do?

[steady pilot]

on what

a weaver mount is a rail that allows railed optics.

[placid stream]

vepr 136

okay

alright i finally put sight on a gun thanks heaps now to go and give it to a scav

[lapis mauve]

don't forget to insure

[placid stream]

haha thanks i never forget cos i usually die

[grand crow]

Now that I finally got flea market can anyone recommend me cheap load outs with an optic

[dull cave]

@grand crow

Anything that fires 545, 556, 762x51, and 762x54R (I also like 762x39 but it can be unwieldy)
Examples: Ak74, ADAR, Vepr Hunter, Mosin, SKS

then put optics on

right click the guns then linked search. you will see mounts and optics that can attatch

[grand crow]

Thanks!

[bold kernel]

so i went to factory for my first time as scav, i spawned and got into a firefight with some scavs. Little did i know 16 more came right away

is this normal?

[dull cave]

yes

dont kill scavs

as a scav

[bold kernel]

then some players came and got me

[dull cave]

they will chase you down

and end you

[bold kernel]

i killed em all

it was the players

[dull cave]

if you attack or kill a scav, the scavs in the area will be alerted to your postition

and as a pscav, other scavs dont aggro unless you shoot first

[bold kernel]

i didnt know there were quiiiiite that many

so i was pretty much out of ammo when the duo came buy

their lucky day for loot

[dull cave]

that is an unusual amount of scavs i will admit

be proud though

[bold kernel]

i had a nice little corner

[dull cave]

most people's first raid go much worse

[bold kernel]

my first factory raid, ive done lots of customs

[desert hull]

I'm here if y'all need questions answered

just @ me

[bold kernel]

only use to 3-4 tops

[dull cave]

ah gotcha

[bold kernel]

not an army

[dull cave]

@desert hull whats your fav map

😛

[desert hull]

uhh

Interchange or Reserve

early wipe customs is pretty dope tho

[bold kernel]

when you drop frames

when they shoot

literally spawned exactly where i needed to be for my quest too

[lyric storm]

I want to put a supressor on my mosin, but i dont know how

cant find it on the flea market

[cedar patio]

Which maps do you suggest people learn early on?

[lapis mauve]

bramit goes on the mosin

interchange or customs maybe

[cedar patio]

I've only been playing customs for my first 2 weeks now, i just find it hard to find a lot of profit

But that's probably because i play super afraid

[lyric storm]

Ok I found it

It didn't come up on the linked search for some reason

[desert hull]

@lyric storm Mosin has a barrel swap

so to find muzzle attachments on a gun where you can swap the barrel, you must link search the barrel

[bold kernel]

i had a scav not die from a headshot never had that happen before :/ he lit me the fuck up

[dull cave]

desync

its an unfortunate consequence of playing tarkov

potentially missed

remember, blood is client side

occasionally you can see blood spurt but not actually land a headshot

[bold kernel]

i was 5M away and he was standing still, it was dark so couldnt see much after the shot, but im pretty certain it hit

[dull cave]

helmet?

[bold kernel]

probably

[dull cave]

what gun didja have

[bold kernel]

vepor

[dull cave]

136 209 or hunter

[bold kernel]

i shoulda shot with the mosin

i dont rember i picked it up from a scav

[dull cave]

ak shaped or sks shaped

[bold kernel]

i was afraid to swap with him right infront

ak

[dull cave]

136 or 209

most likely 209

as that would be the ammo that wouldn't penetrate a level 3 helmet

sometimes you do you best and still get tarkovd

[bold kernel]

🙂

[normal bear]

Yo sherpa @dull cave

Sup

[dull cave]

sup

what do you want

[normal bear]

Just checking for degenerates and sayin hi

[dull cave]

if you didnt know

[normal bear]

I know

Lmao

[dull cave]

i figure you do tho

ye

anyways

no degens here

[normal bear]

Good

[dull cave]

only the best and brightest tarkov has to offer

[normal bear]

We shall see about that one

[placid stream]

what's the difference between the vepr 136 and 209?

[normal bear]

@placid stream catridge

Basically

209 is shit

[placid stream]

lol ok

[normal bear]

136 isnt

[placid stream]

why is 209 shit?

[lyric storm]

Can someone complete a task with me

[normal bear]

@placid stream cause it uses a dogshit catridge and has more recoil than 136

It shoots .366 and 136 shoots 7.62x39

[placid stream]

oh i see

[normal bear]

If you know something about guns the second caliber should be familiar

[placid stream]

yep

i mean i know something about shooters

7.62 is always higher damage higher recoil

[normal bear]

kinda

So .366 is

More recoil more damage less pen

Aka shit

[placid stream]

alright cheers

[split vapor]

Easy just don’t use 366

[placid stream]

it seems to be basically 5.45 or 7.62

like there's a million ammo types but people basically seem to use about five or six

[normal bear]

Because riffles are the best

[placid stream]

i'm trying to figure out if full auto guns are worth it

[normal bear]

No point in using some inferior meme catridge

[lyric storm]

Nobody use .366

[normal bear]

When u got a riffle

Yes they are

Dude

[lyric storm]

Oh

Hmmmmm

[normal bear]

Most low caliber ar's

Are

[split vapor]

366 is a shotgun

[normal bear]

Legit

Lasers

[placid stream]

right

[normal bear]

@split vapor by russian law

Realistically we cant call it a shotty

[split vapor]

Also it’s a smooth bore barrel

Shooting a slug

[normal bear]

Only partially

[split vapor]

Or shot shell

[normal bear]

It has riffling

[placid stream]

is there a cheap easy to use full auto ar you'd recommend?

[split vapor]

Last inch

[placid stream]

i want to be able to fight in dorms and shit

[normal bear]

No

Cheap=no recoil nah nah

[dull cave]

adar

use an adar

[normal bear]

full auto

Btw

[dull cave]

he doesnt need full auto

[normal bear]

You can use some cheap ass AK builds

Thats gonna be the closest

But its 'cheap'

[placid stream]

alright cool

so far i've only been taking medium range fights if possible

because when i fight inside buildings i get nailed

[dull cave]

oi fucks

[placid stream]

so i'm into the vepr 136

[dull cave]

my ar skill is 14 rn

reduces recoil by 7%

wait

nvm

im disabled

[placid stream]

condolences

[normal bear]

Umm

Yikes

[dull cave]

136 is a1

@placid stream you level 5 yet?

[placid stream]

yes

[dull cave]

buy a recoil pad

and a dynacomp

right click the 136 and look through the handguards

[placid stream]

is that so i can spam shots?

[normal bear]

Ye thats good value

[dull cave]

there is a polymer grip for a thousand roubles

[normal bear]

Well spam more

[dull cave]

it has a mount on the bototm

[normal bear]

Its still gon kick

[dull cave]

you can put grips on it

[normal bear]

But less

[dull cave]

@placid stream all in all, including a grip, you can mod out the 136 very well for 20k

excluding the grip its like 5k

[placid stream]

what grip should i use?

[normal bear]

dildo

Obv

[placid stream]

obv

[normal bear]

Its always the dildo

Its what all operators use irl

[lyric storm]

Bruh I don't know how to spray half the time

[normal bear]

Obviously

You click mouse one

And hold

[placid stream]

alright so i've got the 136's recoil down to 113 vert and 234 horizontal

[normal bear]

Till empty

Thats more spammable

[lyric storm]

And my reticle goes all the way up

[placid stream]

thanks heaps

[lyric storm]

Without hitting anything

[manic totem]

Looking for someone who wants to make 2 mil to help me out with something for like an hour

[normal bear]

Full auto at 40m requires like

[placid stream]

i mostly just shoot at heads

[normal bear]

60 recoil

But 110 is spammavle cqb or prone

atleast its not an ash

[lyric storm]

My gun has 72 vert and 200 hori recoil

[dull cave]

recoil values arent consistent between guns

[lyric storm]

Bruh I have to do some gay ass mission

[placid stream]

i have done like one mission

[lyric storm]

Which has like a entire group of scavs around it

[placid stream]

dunno what the point of them is once you get the flea market

[normal bear]

Between full auto they are @dull cave

[dull cave]

nop

recoil values dont mean the same thing

[normal bear]

Yes they just have diff rpm

[dull cave]

across different platforms

[normal bear]

So they climb faster/slower

[lyric storm]

I'm using an ak-74

[normal bear]

Get a m4 and an ak same recoil and measure distance from shot 1-2

Its the same shit

[lapis mauve]

this is pretty cheap and should have manageable recoil

[lyric storm]

And I can't control like the first 10 shots

After that I can handle

[normal bear]

Climb is diff

But thats it

[lyric storm]

My pvp skills are so shit I swear

[lapis mauve]

think that gun is 50-55k total

[rich cloak]

@lyric storm it's normal

The first few shots kick like hell and after that your recoil Controll stats kick in

[dull cave]

Hey are you a new player or someone who likes to sherpa new players? Send me a PM! 🙂

[desert hull]

@dull cave i REFUSE

[dull cave]

okay man

im gonna cry tho

[desert hull]

record it

[dull cave]

for you?

[desert hull]

yes

[lyric storm]

i found this thing after i killed a pmc

keep or sell

[desert hull]

weird question

do you need a gun

yes or no

[lyric storm]

no

[desert hull]

then what you think

sell the sight separate on FM though

[lyric storm]

i was wondering if those modifications are good

[desert hull]

maybe grip too

I mean it's a basic mod of a vepr

[lyric storm]

oh

[dull cave]

skyline

recoil pad

dynacomp

[desert hull]

has cheap effective parts

[dull cave]

now

[desert hull]

good price/performance

[lyric storm]

eh?

[dull cave]

put a dynacomp and recoil pad on it

[lyric storm]

my 74?

[dull cave]

vert recoil should drop to 105-110

the vepr

[lyric storm]

i was gonna sell it

dont like using veprs

[dull cave]

its a great gun

why

[lyric storm]

although i killed a lvl 51 guy with it

[dull cave]

why dont you like using veprs

[lyric storm]

single fire and recoil omegalul

[dull cave]

once again

recoil pad

dynacomp

[lyric storm]

fine ill try

[dull cave]

its like 3k on the flea

[lyric storm]

now i have 4 aks

lol

[dull cave]

I have 4 wcases of them

welcome to the club

[lyric storm]

bruh my stash is still the small stash

[dull cave]

swag

[lyric storm]

cant fit so many aks

[dull cave]

buy cases

[lyric storm]

what kind

[dull cave]

icases are more effective than upgrading stash

junkbox is super good

[lyric storm]

ok

[dull cave]

if yo have a lot of loot items

[lyric storm]

i have 1.7m roubles rn

[dull cave]

ik

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Loot

have a lot of that? ^^^

buy a junkbox

1.4m

4x4

holds 196 slots

[lyric storm]

also what you recommend on this thing

ok

[dull cave]

recoik pad

recoil pad

[lyric storm]

aight

[dull cave]

muzzle is a1

if you ak doesnt have a recoil pad

buy one'

762 ak's get dynacomps

545 aks are a bit more complicated

[fickle kettle]

get pk-2 grip too

[dull cave]

no

rk-2 grips are expensive

just right click what you want to put a grip on

then go through the grips lowest to highest price

once the stats and price work to your liking, you got your grip

[little hinge]

This game should have level based matchmaking, fed up with getting one tapped while wearing affordable armor and weapon

I just keep loosing money

[dull cave]

no

you are bad

get better

level based mm would never owrk

i say that as respectfully as possible bwt

[little hinge]

Sure, how? I just keep dying with one shot from 200 meters back

[dull cave]

thats your problem

that doesnt happen to good players

regardless of gear

[little hinge]

I died 100 times and saw the other player only 5 times maybe

[dull cave]

thats what happens as a new player

run with someone experienced

learn where to look

where to move

how to move

[little hinge]

How can I compete with iron sight while they are wearing 35x thermal?

[dull cave]

how to make and avoid conct

thats a shitty attitude

have you met someone wearing a t7 thermal?

[little hinge]

I'm just asking

[dull cave]

you shoot them

in the head

[little hinge]

I cant even see them at that distance

[dull cave]

then dont

expose yourself

[little hinge]

I'm crouch walking in bushes

[dull cave]

why

[little hinge]

dont know where else to go

you just said dont expose yourself

[dull cave]

yeah

[little hinge]

and I explained that I dont

[dull cave]

that doesnt mean waddle around

find someone good to play with

try not to annoy them

and learn a bit

i promise next week you will be playing much better

just get rid of the "how can i compete" shit

that doesn't help anyone

just makes excuses

[mystic pasture]

Bushes make tonnes of noise

and if you're walking at the slowest speed you're a sitting duck

[dull cave]

a waddling duck*

[little hinge]

so they can hear me crouch walking in bushes 200m afar?

[dull cave]

no

but they dont have to lead

[mystic pasture]

if someone has active headset on you will get heard from quite far

[dull cave]

rythes

just chill

[mystic pasture]

You'd be surprised

Im in the same boat man, 4 days new and getting 1 tapped with scopes from miles away

[little hinge]

I'm no even mad you are the one trying to escalate the siutation

[dull cave]

thats fair

[little hinge]

I just said game needs level based match making

[mystic pasture]

What map are you playing?

[dull cave]

it doesnt

level based mm would be terrible

[mystic pasture]

Level based matchmaking doesnt work in a system where you cant lose levels, cos overtime you will all get to max (esp if they stop wipes etc)

[lyric storm]

Also guys

[little hinge]

I don't have the funds to get 100k weapons every match ( which are pretty bad anyway) and my pistol with the 2nd best ammo can't penetrate people's face cover fast enough

[mystic pasture]

Scav runs are your best friend tbh

[little hinge]

I dont have a competitive aim speed

[dull cave]

rythes

stop

making

excuses

we were all shit

[lyric storm]

Why do a lot of people trade alyonka for the flea market trade

Is it that valuable?

[dull cave]

you can craft sugar

sugar is valuable

because ou can craft moonshine

[lyric storm]

I have 2 boxes of sugar

[dull cave]

moonshine is valuable

[lyric storm]

I see

[dull cave]

because you can put it in the scav case or trade for a thicc icase

gotta follow the trails lol

[lyric storm]

[little hinge]

how am I going to reach dorms to complete my 2 quests there with my pistol while there are 2-3 full gear people there at all times?

[dull cave]

rythes

stop

complaining

[lyric storm]

But I guess I'm too low lvl for that for the time being

[dull cave]

dude i know its hard

[little hinge]

I'm asking you to explain

[dull cave]

just run with someone else

[lyric storm]

Imma sell all of it

[dull cave]

play better

[mystic pasture]

Partner, "stop complaining is not helpful" this is for advice right?

[dull cave]

thats all i can tell you

i gave advice earlier

[mystic pasture]

if hes annoying you, dont reply so other people can help him

[dull cave]

but fair enough

you make a good point

[mystic pasture]

❤️

[little hinge]

I dont want to play with anybody other than my friends and they are at a worse position than me

you are not helping partner

[dull cave]

rythes, dont make excuses for dying. just remember how you died and dont do the same thing

[lyric storm]

Hey I found a BCM MOD.3 in the raid, is it a good grip

[little hinge]

maybe just stop answering so people with actual advise can read my text

[dull cave]

you are bad at the game, simple as can be. you will learn to play better. you make mistakes right now that I could point out in game, but not from here

im suggesting you play with someone else

[raven gale]

anyone wanna team up? im new

[dull cave]

because they will be able to point out the little things that will make you better

[acoustic jackal]

hi, im very new. game makes me confused. feels very complicated. With what should i start with if i wanna end with a that type of gear (remington 700 + mp5/other submachine gun) ora what to start with normally?

[dull cave]

@raven gale #pvp-lfg

also #521628660298678283

get rid of that whitename

[mystic pasture]

Dorms is a high traffic area for customs, you aren't really supposed to be there with just a pistol, the only time I'd say do, is if you're fast, get a decent spawn to just book it there and grab what you need fast and get out, but its super risky

[dull cave]

@acoustic jackal start slow

[little hinge]

I have quests I need to complete there Ignis

[dull cave]

Anything that fires 545, 556, 762x51, and 762x54R (I also like 762x39 but it can be unwieldy)
Examples: Ak74, ADAR, Vepr Hunter, Mosin, SKS

[little hinge]

I can't level up any other way

[dull cave]

rythes

[mystic pasture]

What level are you?

[dull cave]

find

someone

else

[little hinge]

partner please shut up

[dull cave]

i promise it will go better

[lyric storm]

Bruh arguments

[dull cave]

this discord is full of helpful people

I would sherpa you if I werent too tired

[little hinge]

I don't want to play with anyone other than my friends, period.

[dull cave]

okay

[patent granite]

Do the quest at night maybe?

[mystic pasture]

Is it the quest to get the key for the truck and then the watch?

[little hinge]

then I cant see scavs that one shot me kuzene

[patent granite]

You don’t need good weapons to avoid battles

[lyric storm]

Is it feasible to go factory in the night, because I need to do a task

[patent granite]

You have an answer for anything anyone says. There is no helping you.

[little hinge]

one is the water quest for therapist, other is some clue in room 220

[dull cave]

do you have the keys?

[little hinge]

yeah

[patent granite]

There is no rush to quest. Scav till you got gear

[dull cave]

so where are you dying

what part in your run do you fail

[somber lagoon]

@lyric storm it's feasible if you have a way of seeing in darkness, but it's pretty dang dark at night.

[mystic pasture]

Oh Ive done neither yet tbh, I do quest stuff in the dark though, once you learn roughly where the scavs are its easy to avoid them at night

[little hinge]

on the way to customs, just died to some full gear dude and lost my ak 74m and 6b armor set

[dull cave]

on the way to customs?

[little hinge]

dorms*

[dull cave]

gotcha

[mystic pasture]

but also yeah Im level 12 and ive done 1 prapor quest and 1 therapist quest

[dull cave]

where did you die exactly?

in the open

trees

warehouse area?

[somber lagoon]

where does one find pile of meds?

[next ruin]

can someone help me with this quest to kill 48 scavs in untar using an m4?

[little hinge]

no, the forest at the back of gas station trying to move stealty and listen

[dull cave]

did you walk through bushes?

dont do that

they were very loud

[regal plover]

@somber lagoon Medbags

[little hinge]

he shot me first returned fire, hit couple of times, damaged 400 or somethig armor

and died

[mystic pasture]

That area is where geared players kill the scav boss/scavs at gas station right?

[dull cave]

what ammo rythes?

[little hinge]

BP

[dull cave]

yeah ignis

[little hinge]

BT*

It wasnt a great weapopn but it's expansive for me, 54 ergo and 77 recoil

[dull cave]

rythes im gonna say this again, because its pretty important. Playing with someone will make you better 10x faster than dying alone over and over again

there are so many things to micro

[mystic pasture]

Rhythes a better path to dorms is way "north" of that along the back, there are some paths to extracts there but early on in the raid they're usually clear

[dull cave]

^^

ignis is also right

[mystic pasture]

because that hill and forest bit behind gas station is the meta place to kill the gas station scavs from

[little hinge]

but I spawned at the east side of the map

[dull cave]

stik on teh wall

okay?

[mystic pasture]

East? Factory side?

[dull cave]

just stick on the wall

deep in the forest

[lyric storm]

What grips do you guys recommend for my ak-74

[little hinge]

the guy who shot me was walking at the wall, I would die faster if I was too

[dull cave]

skyline

[lyric storm]

Yee?

[dull cave]

right click the handgurd and linked search

go through the grips

starting cheap

[lyric storm]

Yeah I know, but I don't know which to buy

[dull cave]

look for the stats you like

and a price you like

[lapis mauve]

i like rk-6, cheap and good ergo

[dull cave]

just look through them yourself

i promise you will find what works best for oyu

[little hinge]

Well anyway I just said something simple and you guys turned this into "gid gud" I'm gonna go keep dying trying to reach dorms

[lyric storm]

Wait I forgot, I can do that triple flashlight meme I saw on yt

[dull cave]

no rythes

your attitude is shit

[lyric storm]

Imma meme

[mystic pasture]

Nah man not get gud

Hang on

thats my route if I spawn factory side

that circle is a buried stash

[dull cave]

you passed like 4 other stashes lmao

[mystic pasture]

If you wanna be even safer but slower

I only know the 1 😄

[mystic pasture]

Oh wow 😂

ty

[dull cave]

mhm

[little hinge]

I was at the orange, and the guy killed me at blue

[dull cave]

should've stuck on the wall more

[little hinge]

really wasnt following a bad path there

[dull cave]

that hill is super dangerous

[little hinge]

he was at the wall, what use would that be

[dull cave]

lots of trafic and lots of angles

you wouldve seen him first maybe?

[lyric storm]

Actually Imma just go find a grip on a scav run

[little hinge]

I already shot him multiple times

[lyric storm]

Save mein munie

[dull cave]

did you see him first?

[little hinge]

all absorbed by armor

no but he missed till I returned fire

[mystic pasture]

Man, I have died there 1 time out of 10 on customs with that route, the takeaway is you're always gonna die to random people in weird places

[little hinge]

only hit me 2 times which killed me

[dull cave]

if you saw him first you could've won

[little hinge]

I should have captured the damage screen..

[dull cave]

no, i get it

[little hinge]

you will not believe anything I say anyway

[dull cave]

armor stops bullets

dude

im trying to help you

[zenith frost]

how much experience in the game do you have rythes?

[little hinge]

I said I hit 400 something to his armor and that's me spending a full mag

[mystic pasture]

With shitty guns and ammo, shoot for the legs or face

[dull cave]

adm #521628660298678283 fix your whitename lol

[mystic pasture]

unless they have a face shield

[dull cave]

@little hinge that was only a couple hits

[lyric storm]

Shitty bullets?

[dull cave]

400 something armor damage is like 5 rounds

tops

[zenith frost]

ohh kay?

[dull cave]

maybe 6

BT is fine, dont aim for legs with BT

[little hinge]

Yeah but my point is I hit him more than he hit me and I died anyway cause he was wearing better armor which is 5 times more expensive than mine

[dull cave]

unless you can identify his armor

yes

thats how it works

whats your point

you lost a straight up gunfight

that happens

alot

[little hinge]

my point was to have level based mm to prevent this gear difference -.-

[dull cave]

no

there arent enough players

[mystic pasture]

That wouldnt prevent it

[dull cave]

as is

and that would just fuck things

[mystic pasture]

Look I feel your pain

I had a shotgun

[dull cave]

those are rookie numberse

[mystic pasture]

he had an assault rifle and missed almost every shot

[dull cave]

ive hit above 2k before

[mystic pasture]

but it happens

[lyric storm]

Feelsbadman

[mystic pasture]

eh

[little hinge]

Anyway, thanks Ignis for your help but I dont want to talk anymore while parner is here, he is going to dismiss everything I say anyway

back to the game

[mystic pasture]

its part of the game

😄

[dull cave]

rythes

jesus christ dude

[lyric storm]

Bruh lmao

[zenith frost]

death is alot of the game, all you can do is keep on trying and learning as you go

thats how i learned

[dull cave]

^

some people cant handel that

thats why the subreddit is so fucking stupid

[zenith frost]

(also i did the rules and setup but name is still white idk how to fix sorry)

[lyric storm]

Also what are you guys tips on running woods, I can't seem to see who's shooting at me half the time

[dull cave]

ping a mod

[mystic pasture]

Although I think partner was a bit more abrupt than I would have been, he has a point, this game is a LOT of learning, you aren't gonna pick it up as fast as another shooter, and its almost ALL about knowing the map, and awareness over twitch shooting

[dull cave]

they will help ya

[desert hull]

@zenith frost re-do it

uncheck recheck

if it persists ask an admin to help

[dull cave]

i was only harsh because he was being stupid

i love helping new players

[zenith frost]

alright, ill message a mod thank you guys

[dull cave]

I run a discord for helping new players

[lyric storm]

Pepega

[mystic pasture]

I was as patient as I could have been so tbh I dont blame you

[zenith frost]

ayy it worked, thanks

[lyric storm]

Send discord link

[acoustic jackal]

whats the best map to learn the game?

[dull cave]

@acoustic jackal thats up for debate

skip factory

skip reserve

[zenith frost]

all good partner, thanks for bringing it to my attention

[mystic pasture]

A lot of people say customs

[dull cave]

shoreline, woods, customs

customs is a meat grinder

super linear

[zenith frost]

@acoustic jackal imo woods

[lyric storm]

Is factory at night feasible or plain stupid

[mystic pasture]

yeah thats the problem with it

[dull cave]

woods and shoreline are both fatass squares

[desert hull]

@acoustic jackal Customs is linear so finding your extract is easy enough and most early game tasks take place there

[dull cave]

@lyric storm with nods sure

[desert hull]

however it forces PVP

being linear

[zenith frost]

woods was the first map i learned and so far has been super profitable for me

[desert hull]

its really hard to get through customs without getting close to other PMCs

[lyric storm]

Cuz I need to do the "delivery from the past" mission

[mystic pasture]

You got any advice for woods?

[dull cave]

sure

[mystic pasture]

Cos I suck at it

[dull cave]

dont die

[desert hull]

stick to the sides

[lyric storm]

And I don't wanna die to some camper

[dull cave]

scan constantly

[desert hull]

dont go through the middle

and stop to scan a lot

[dull cave]

learn hotspots

dont stop

never stop

lmao

[desert hull]

yeha no

heres how this works

[zenith frost]

@mystic pasture be very careful, always look at the rocks always look at everything and people can be everywhere

[lyric storm]

Lmoa I proned on woods once and some guy one tapped me

[dull cave]

when you stop, you get thwopt

[desert hull]

if you just walk constantly throughout the raid

[lyric storm]

I kinda hate woods

[desert hull]

you, just by how the game works and probability, are just about certain to be ambushed

[zenith frost]

idk, its just been treating me super super well this wipe

[lyric storm]

Woods reminds me of the Vietnam war

[dull cave]

i am almost never ambushed

[desert hull]

you need to stop moving sometimes and scan your next 100-200 meters

[zenith frost]

it can def be stupid frusturating

[dull cave]

i cant even remember being ambushed

and i never stop moving

you can scan and move

[desert hull]

and let people walk into your sights

[zenith frost]

you learn certain "safe" spots and where is pretty much instant death after many many deaths lol

[desert hull]

if you're constantly moving you cannot be the ambusher

[dull cave]

to each their on tbh

[mystic pasture]

Ive done like 5-6 runs on woods and got out 3 times? my main problem is I hear shooting, but can never find anyone 😄

[desert hull]

you can only be ambushed

[dull cave]

thats wrong

i ambush ALL the time

[desert hull]

you dont

[dull cave]

i do lol

[desert hull]

the best thing you can do is have some dude with no eyes not see you

[dull cave]

turbo

[desert hull]

but if you never stop you are forcing pvp

[dull cave]

there isnt a right way to play

[desert hull]

your comment implied otherwise

[lyric storm]

I like memeing around

[dull cave]

my comment was a joke m8

[desert hull]

it wasnt

[dull cave]

yes it was

[desert hull]

at least not worded as one

[dull cave]

who are you to decide?

[zenith frost]

_<

[dull cave]

did you write the words?

[desert hull]

wasnt worded as one

[lyric storm]

Pepegas in the chat

[desert hull]

was worded as a statement

doesnt matter

[dull cave]

dont stop
never stop
lmao
when you stop, you get thwopt

thats a joke mate

dont care if you cant read it

[desert hull]

doesnt matter

drop it.

[dull cave]

drop what

dad

[cedar patio]

:")

[dull cave]

careful or I'll call a mod

like there isn't already one watching

[lyric storm]

I was dropped when I was four

[zenith frost]

can we go back to giving eachother advice for woods?

plz

[dull cave]

sure

dont stop moving

never stop

lmao

when you get stoped

[zenith frost]

most of the rocks are death traps and always worth looking at

[dull cave]

you get thwopd

[desert hull]

stop to scan for people

[lyric storm]

Also what's the bullet drop like in this game

[desert hull]

unless you like getting sniped

[dull cave]

or try either and see what works for you

heavy

very heavy

[desert hull]

about 3x more than real life @lyric storm

[zenith frost]

especially the one near the beach at lumber yard

[dull cave]

travel speed is accurate

drop is like 3x

[lyric storm]

So if I'm in woods and I see a dude 200m away

[desert hull]

depends on gun used

[lyric storm]

And I have a hunter

[dull cave]

zero 200

[zenith frost]

@lyric storm some scopes like the pso-1 have built in range finders

[lyric storm]

How far must I go up

[zenith frost]

you just gotta learn how to use em

[dull cave]

to get a feel for distance, outskirts is about 800m from sawmill

[desert hull]

if you can accurately gauge distance

just zero your gun

[zenith frost]

^

[desert hull]

zero before his distance not after

[lyric storm]

Ok

[zenith frost]

usually for mid-ish range id say 100-150m

[desert hull]

if he's at 200m, don't zero for 200m

[dull cave]

eventually you can just taste how far it is

[desert hull]

zero for whatever is the setting right below 200m

[dull cave]

lmaowut

if he is 200m from yu

[desert hull]

usually 100m-150m

[dull cave]

zero to 200m

and shoot

[lyric storm]

I don't think my reticle has a range finder

[zenith frost]

yeah most dont

[lyric storm]

I'm using the 1p59

[desert hull]

compensate for the small amount of drop that comes from not being zero'd right on his distance

[dull cave]

why comp

if you know the distance

and you can just zero accurately

[desert hull]

because its not as natural

[dull cave]

says who?

[desert hull]

intelligent people

[dull cave]

you're one to assume 😛

[desert hull]

if you don't have a rangefinder piece of equipment

you are not gauging distance accurately

no ifs and or buts

[dull cave]

yes i do

take me onto woods

[zenith frost]

@lyric storm im pretty sure it does actually, the little arrows under the center reticle might be, but i havent done any testing for myself

[dull cave]

i will hit your head every time

[lyric storm]

I can't zero the distance accurately

[zenith frost]

most people cant

[lyric storm]

@zenith frost I'll try

[zenith frost]

me included

[dull cave]

@zenith frost chevrons are usually for different ranges

[lyric storm]

Because the fucking woods mission is painstaking

[desert hull]

the only way one is going to learn distance in this game is if they learn common spots

or are tower

[dull cave]

ive played this game since closed beta opened

tower may be the better sniper

but i can fuckin tell how far someone is

[desert hull]

nobody generally can look at somebody and say the distance accurate within 25m

and the farther one gets from the target the worse their accuracy in gauging it will be

[zenith frost]

with enough experience, i dont doubt he could

[dull cave]

i can within 35-40 up or down

out to 400m

nearest 50, just to make it easy

[desert hull]

regardless its easier to zero for the next lowest distance and adjust for a small amount of drop

than get your distance wrong

and have your gun firing over his head

[dull cave]

then aim center head

[desert hull]

if you're aiming center you are not killing

[dull cave]

center head?

[zenith frost]

center head = nose

[dull cave]

t zone chief

[desert hull]

if you're wrong by enough it won't matter

[dull cave]

thats where you aim

[desert hull]

wills till go over

[dull cave]

theres the key word

wrong

if you know the distance

zero to that distance

[desert hull]

semantics

[dull cave]

dont make extra work
