nice wiki
It is
the weapon mastery give you no profit
it just give you the number of kill
or the amount of time you use that gun xd
like me mastery sks btw
.
Currently level 2 provides no extra functions, whilst level 3 grants you access to new reload animations and the ability to reload while aiming down sights.
@fickle kettle
normally i always use black sks with pso + mounted pk-06
no
even if its a lie
do not anger present company
WITH PS AMMO
Mm yes using a 30-40k crappy rifle
π
is it normally very difficult to get 10 scav kills on woods
if you spotted them first ofc
Or sv98 is cheaper
@steady pilot estimation of value of my crappy rifle
Yeah woods is shit if you aren't a irl redneck that lives in the woods
i legit have played for an hour
@desert hull that is a beauty right dere mate
you saying we need to experience the outdoors firsthand @rich cloak

120k
Actually
Like 140k
listen delta
there is all ways squads of pmcs out there
anyone know what a tank battery is useful for?
@sharp garden quest-stre level-money
Pso 20k, moe stock 15k, tapco 10k ,p grip 7k gun 30k, dtk 45k , grip 10k
for a quest or for my stash?
Yo whoever said grimm uses reshade is wrong
What's that add up too
couldn't find much info on what it can be used for
i mean there is a quest from prapor
ahhh ok
@steady pilot if my mind math is correct like 122k
that quest will help you unlock ash-12
Shit my first answer was right
aka shitgun-12

so
ooo
think about it
is the SKS bad delta
The adapter cost 2k
or do you just think the vepr is better
It's not a rifle worth 125k no
I mean the base gun
guess i need the $$$ more lawl
its modded for the meme
cause im not too deep into quests
bruh
barley doing prapor #3
base sks is much more cheaper than fal- svd - m1a
Each PMC's faction have their own unique skillset ? I read that on the wiki
missing an iron sight because the fucking market blows
@fickle kettle and less reliable
not as of now, no, maybe in future @idle sphinx
@fickle kettle he was talking about my 125k version
noctied ME
Vepr Hunter >
Even a vepr hunter
@desert hull ah ok
Atleast for the cost and vs the sks
sksssss
Modding the sks like that is a meme. Worst rifle accuracy in the game
I really wish we could suppress the hunter
why is the accuracy so bad tho
Cause bsg nerfed it
bsg bad
Cause it was over used cause it was op for cheap
if it was more accurate than vepr it would have merit
but vepr is still more moddable and with cheaper mag capacity
is the SV98 travel time basically instant under 200m?
More or less.
why you bully op-sks delta 
I find trying to shoot people with the SV98 I "ghost bullet" a shit ton
like it feels like im firing blanks
but I think maybe its because im leading when i dont need to
I went into with that exact sks build and hated it
@zealous forge what sks build
Into woods* the Op sks in the pic delta just sent
Just buy a Mosin 
Just use a hunter
You don't need to tap taptap if you onetap people
hunter is used different than SKS
I use it as a Red Dot clickclickclick at close range.
SKS is for fast followup
Is this not how you are suppose to use it as a SKS?
Fair-ish
...
just use a vepr KM
Then what are you suppose to use this SKS for?
I mean in general now that they nerfed its accuracy so bad
Instead of that 122k piece or shit sks you can have this build for 80k (minus optic)
@steady pilot *you should put a reflex mount on it too
@fickle kettle no cease with cancer
w8 what ?
only acceptable backup sight is on top of your assault scope
I'm showing the accuracy
how is that cancer
lel
Are they?
Haven't really used them
they are meming xd
sometimes its pretty goofy trying to swap to the right sight
Ok
Meta nerds use them cause its faster ads
Monstrum has all the ads speed I need 
/S
And holding a gun sideways makes it a killshot everybody knows that
Look at this monstrosity in #weapon-modding
hey guys whats the mosin mag called? any would work cant seem to find any on the traders
@knotty finch link search the gun
@knotty finch the archangel mag...?
The really expensive modding of a mosin that cost 60k when you could just use sv98 for 25k that still has 2x the stats?

thanks guys i just figured it out
there is only mosin quest but not sv98 quest delta
thought i had no mag in and went to look for mosin magazines didnt realize
mosin quests do literally nothing but unlock parts for mosin
and kappa lel
^ but jagear reputation
and jaeger rep
I ain't ruining my cod kdr on that shit 
lol the mosin part 1-5 is not even hard
you say that
but I have to intentionally leg meta scavs
with a mosin
you know how hard that is
to betray everything Ive learned and aim at a scavs fuckin shins?
thanks guys btw
just think that as a revenge
let me ask how many time did you get leg-arm meta from the scav xd
how do i put a sight on a mosin?
i have a kochetov mount
and pu 3.5x ring and pu 3.5x scope
@placid stream you need the sniper variant that has a curved bolt
Infantry has a straight bolt
7n1 only
LPS is trash
Dont skimp on ammo, it's a bolt action so you dont need a shit ton
I had to put 5 Mosin bullets into a raider yesterday 
why not 1 for the head
must be reseve 
Hello, just got into the game, my friend recommended me to play a few rounds as Scavs, and I've done a couple... Any helpful tips to not dying quickly?
nextime when you enter the train area
try to play slwo
and check for scav boss or riader
raider
@fickle kettle I was on a scav and spawned beneath the raiders 
if i insure a backapack, and then i drop it, if theres anything in it i looted, do i get those back with the backpack?
@glacial jay no
thanks
then i can only say it "shit happned"
@fickle kettle I love playing reserve but I'm doo doo 
Yeah
I did kill 2 of them tho
nowaday i only play pmc on reserve
I
and most of the time just kill pscav
cause if you playing as a pmc but you have a long range weapon and you have red rebel pick axe
you can bully the fuck of those pscav
lately all i do is camping dome or 1 of the tower
kill every pscav or raider i see
For some reason my dudes keep throwing my magazine on the ground about half the time I reload, even if i rebind quick reload somewhere else, anyone else have this issue?
Must be nice to be able to extract reserve
I just spawned with a red keycard
i got out
It's not that
Why is there a cool down for being a scav?
dude
@frosty crown what map?
Yes
interchange
It is real
So, it seems its just me huh
Because it's really rare
@harsh ridge you have to have a free slot in your rig which is as big as the mag you take out
Because your pmc dirst puts the old mag in your rig and then he takes the other one out
how much do i sell this keycard for
@frosty crown check flea
Why does it say Factory is 'normal' difficulty? Isn't there only like 2 exits?
@harsh ridge if it's not a space issue it's a user error
most of them are 22m but theres one guy selling for 16m
@light iron don't go for that difficultly rating
How? I have rebound quick reload to a different key even, and have rebound it back
Maybe the 16 mill guy doesn't have the money for the 22mil fee
what could i possibly be doing in error
Its fine, im not pissy lol, but i do think its just a bug
its been a few days
does it all the time, plain as day, pressing once
I told you what I know about the topic and nowadays it never happens to me so sorry maybe the support can help
Whats the best map for beginners to really get a feel of the game? Shore? Woods?
@light iron usually I'd say customs but it's a shit show
i have started with customs and am happy with that choice
For getting a fell of the game shoreline is lnt bad
the first couple prapor quests are on customs
Customs is objectivly the best map to start on but it's swarmed by high level players
Is it wise to start with a party or go by myself
@light iron first off go into offline raids
Get to know the map and the games basic mechanics
How do I do that?
After that I'd reccomned some solo raids
@light iron select customs and choose a time
After that you should see a map screen and after that you have the option to go into a offline raid
Meaning no other players and you don't loose gear
Oh I see
But you also don't make any progress
Should I enable PvE or learn it solo by wandering?
Id say turn it on
So you can learn where scavs usually roam around and to get a feel of gunfights
Is it possible to go into offline in squads?
I cant even afford the fee to put the red keycard onto the market
I don't actually know if it's soon but I think they plan on it
@frosty crown jup 
How much is the fee for 22mil?
And while you are at the flea market. Can you check the price on the red rider for me real quick?
How far do footstep sounds travel? I see people running maybe 50m from me but can't hear a thing while wearing headsets
Depends on what floor they are running on, what speed they are traveling at, their level in covert movement and a bunch of other things
is there a table or something showing the base values? like with no skill level, on grass, wood, concrete while silent/walking/running
Cause I have no idea when to run when to walk and on all streams or videos I see people always run
i srsly dont think there is a table for that because that is too much value
and too much terrance
I just straight up suck.... had to reset my account because I lost all my stuff. Can barely even evac. Any advice?
and also please just do scav run if you are new lol
I try
but I always fucking die
idk I always die to stacked players
usually not scavs
Keep it slow and don't engage if you don't have to
Try to keep an eye out for players and avoid them
I kind of suck at that
I tend to get tunnelvision
and only focus on my goal (like getting to evac)
Try to learn where players are most likely to be on maps. The high value loot areas that everyone rushes etc
What maps are you playing? Customs can give you a consistent couple of points to be trying to exfil from
@bold kernel tunnel vision will get you killed basically every time
Idk I feel like I'm better at factory
I can usually kill 5-6 scavs
before I die
to some stacked ass guy that shoots me in the back
Do you know where all the extracts are yet? On customs?
Oh yeah that's okay I guess
Yeah on customs.. sometimes I have a hard time remembering though.
Not so much on Factory, tried going into offline mode to learn them
is the small SICC case worth if i already have a docs case?
I'd say best tip is to learn how to move through the map confidently first, learn player hotspots and scav locations.
Like the hill behind gas station on customs, a lot of players use that to kill scavs for example. Dorms is usually pretty heavily contested
When I first started I used to pretty regularly loot the warehouses in the bottom right corner fairly uncontested
: Is there a few people that would be able to sherpa me through the Deliver From The Past Mission?
Just so I can drop in this item in and not have to worry about re-doing it and having to grab it from Customs AGAIN!
@fiery breach the package you have to drop in factory?
Is the AK74M worth keeping and modding the same way as the vepr 136
What do you mean
Do I just sell them or do I mod them to use them
this game has the worst new player experience i have ever seen, no wonder people stop playing in their droves.
are they good or is it not worth it?
nvm then, Im just selling them off
is it possible to lose a loyalty level on a dealer if I do the -rep quests?
yes
ouch alright
I am gearing up to kill a bunch of Scavs on Interchange.
Is there a preferred loadout or will a mosin do?
what needs to be criteria to fit in the manhole in reserve?
No backpack @pine wagon
You can have a rig with a lot of space, but not even a Tbag for your backpack
So the big brain play is to get one of the massive rigs.
@past lodge there are no preferred loadouts for anything
use what you have or what you're comfortable with
Fair.
Okay. Let's see what happens. Going in with a Mosin, a one of the MSS backpacks, the basic PACA vest and a Green Steel pot...maybe I should bring the Grach too.
having a secondary isnt a bad idea with a sniper
how much is a San 328 key worth?
Right click on it, and left click on "filter by item"
yeah couldn't find anything
just type 328
Oof 385k
Idk
Died to Gluhar. thats Scav boss, right?
It happens, there'll be plenty of new opportunities to get out with a new or different key
on Reserve
I shot that guy like 20 bullets before he got me.
Yeah, Scav bosses have (correct me if I'm wrong) double the HP, so they take a while if they're geared
@compact basin yeah he's insanely tanky
I think it's only the one on reserve tho right?
scav ammo wont penetrate shit
With like 800hp
Reserve only has 1 boss but he has a bunch of guards that are all basically bosses
Shoot his head with m80 or something and he would die
One day I'll live the dream and catch him with the mounted lmg
That thing does 180 damage per bullet
@strange mural You on?
Official ammo table for Escape from Tarkov :
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ammunition
@strange mural Reminder that nikita changed 5.45 and 5.56 rounds
855 still trash tho lol
are they just equal but one is tracer?
both A1's got buffed

i just realised
But I don't know if that's ever gonna happen
a bear might've been trying to be friendly with me yesterday
cuz instead of shooting me instantly he screamed
@bold kernel it's a bear

i spared a bear yesterday
whats the best and cheapest armor to buy
Kill on sight
i am a bear
best value are armor rigs

does anyone know why my hideout construction takes more than it says?
No
nah happened before
In a game of no consequence why do you pick the good side?
took me like 48 hours to build scav case
@rich cloak why would i pick the bad side?
Because it's a game of no consequence
would you kill a person
It's philosophy kebap 
poor turbo
if there was no consequences?
what do you need
had to live off scav droppings for the last 5 days
I might
well then your morality is fucked
not bear tho
if i have a choice between good or bad i'll pick good
Morale is but a fickle concept
besides, i'm gay but i don't have to play USEC to tell everyone
bruh
wym good guys tho
usecs are americans
that automatically makes them the good guys retard

I found the American 
yes
uh
probably?
idk
but for real
i feel like just resetting my character
and running as usec
just for english voicelines
i'm just level 6 anyway
like every raid

never had this much trouble with drunk people before
about to fucking pistol run this task
@desert hull which one are you on?
Ahh
Ok time for tarkov
yeah
@strange mural should i transition my gender to usec
That one's Allright I think
@bold kernel I think you've got something confused there friend
kekw
Eh I like the akm series
bear gang where u at
Probably the gulag
ah fuck
You sure about that friend?
@rich cloak you can come too
turbo issa too spookems
I'd wish @desert hull
i have a SEA boyo with me
do it
But I'm at work
so ping suuck
where are the m4's π‘
47k
Bruh.mp4
I need one of y'all to come hold my hand for this shoreline quest
he aint here
because I keep finding a way to die to scavs at level 33
Feck
@bold kernel
Bruh


sometimes you have to man mode it
and just sprint through the map at night with a p226

Where do I get an mp5
I can't buy with cash from mechanic
And I dun wanna die again
this is the face of a man who is tired of shoreline @strange mural
Peacekeeper I think
Oh yeah
I kinda like shoreline
i dont mind the map right
but this polish fuck makes me wear UNTAR gear
which allows me to get spotted from a mile away
and one shot when they see me
@silver dome you don't
if none come up link search upper receiver/handguard
pretty sure handguard has a mount
Really?
There's 2 mount for the mp5
if they exist
They don't
some sights have mounts for lights
just use the modding tool!!
but those are pretty bulky
edit presets ez
do those pictuires give you anxiety
Yeah there's a reddot sight with a laser
they give me great pleasure
we just wiped a three man pscav party as a two man and bled out

What's the best map for a beginner?
everyone I bump into is full armoured and with epic guns
anyone want to help a man out? totally lost
same
And I'm just sitting here with my pants down with a stock ak
lf someone to play a few games with me
It's just ridiculous
Like even when I get the full on jump on someone, they have time to turn around and kill me or my bullets do nothing because of armour
global in cs but total chicken in this game
@novel dirge @craggy dagger get the maps up on your phone/second monitors so you can find the exfils etc
Even on a scav run I put a whole magazine of the kedr into someone (very few if any missed) as I had sneaked up on someone and they just ran off
already did that
I'm not struggling too much with finding my way around, just keep getting killed and can't seem to do anything back to anyone
@novel dirge different ammo has different ratings, ammo charts will help I have only been playin a week but these helped a lot
Like I can get "positive" runs when I scav it and just avoid everyone but the minute I try and kill someone it's just an instant loss regardless of situation
At first it is very hard, there is a steep learning curve
I assume I'm just too late to the party and everyone is high level geared, even on the quieter maps
Never to late bro, keep at it! What servers are you on?
Eur
@novel dirge you know you can just uhh
save money
and buy high tier items off flea
Just feels a bit like everyone else in the map has better gear and can afford to take that stuff out but I'm a fresh start and a bit screwed
/ level traders
ahahah @strange mural
just clapped a NVG boy with the Mp153
cause I had a shotgun with a flashlight

Yeah I guess but then I have to do like 10-20 bare minimum runs trying to turn a profit just so I can have one "normal" run where I risk it all
@novel dirge what edition do you have?
I just clapped a NVG geared out dude with literally nothing but a Mp153 shotgun and a flashlight
EOD but just conscious that taking the good stuff out from initial will just get me clapped instantly
@desert hull very turn, even after a week my gameplay is a lot better
of course i have to play to get experience but i don't get shit out of hatchet runs/scav runs
but i gotta do them if i want loot for normals runs
Like, what from the stores is worth buying to go out? At a bare minimum to have a chance of killing someone who is geared?
@novel dirge save good rigs, helmet armour and sniper but akβs etc come and go
I mean, the pp91 disagreed last run lol
you need to learn that conflict isnt required
vepr
I gaurantee you I can kill whoever you were fighting with a PP91
it just requires tactics and shot placement
They were still and looting a chest and I sprayed a whole 30 round into them and they just walked it off π
ye go for legs
So legs?
armor is on the chest and often stomach
Hmm ok
and you incapitate them
if your pistol rounds cant penetrate the armor you will do almsot nothing
Bruh I got a five seven
however legs are never protected
and after blacking someones legs, the damage given to that leg will be given to everything else fast
so basically you black the leg then kill them with overkill damage
Any recommended guns for a starting loadout?
Vepr KM
I have about 250k and a bunch of junk from EOD that I think I'll probably lose instantly
Worth taking any armour or helmets or?
is lvl4 armor enough?
sks cough
lmao sks
@fickle kettle SKS is nice but VeprKM is just better and less expensive
I personally take helmet and armour even cheap ones then just insure and get most of it back
yes
Sks for me is good
even from the changes that just happened yesterday
anyone wanna play with me? Good or bad I dont care
what are you trying to do? @craggy dagger
@desert hull you said it

said what
eu region
nice what region you playin gon kebab
and looking back at my gameplay i've made some poor economic choices so i reset
eu
omw
@here Guys, where i can found zb-016 in woods?
wtf
Re
or jaeger's task wiki since thats probably what you're looking for
i have quest on zb-16
herro is anyone willing to play/teach? i'm lvl 2 i played for the first time yesterday...
@bold kernel region?
you can ask any questions here @bold kernel
lel
oh why so
all these article 13 lookin boys
cuz i bought the game 3 days ago
out here
ohh
maybe we can find more experienced player to play with both of us?
i mean if you're like completly new to this i could tell you some stuff that isn't inherently gameplay related
I don't advise going above a 2 man squad @bold kernel
until you';re more experienced
@desert hull lmao u gay or something?
just stick together 4head
or let himself get shot by some rando
or wear armbands
Armbands aren't really that useful tbh
they're pretty useful
at scaring the shit out of ppl that kill you

but no for squad identification they're pretty useless
@bold kernel so anyway i think you should try to ask for a Sherpa and ask question on here, i would advice you to play the game alone first and den start grouping up
anyone wanna do a raid
i kinda have a sherpa but he's sleeping i think
@bold kernel pick a map to learn, most people advise customs, learn how to move through the map and where scavs spawn, where the loot is etc.
add me my name is melonLT
pistolboi
Beginners should run some offline raids to know the map
ok ;-;
idk i just thought this game being challenging af i preferred to play with someone experienced so that i dont give up so easily
but ok guys thanks
i would try to help but sadly my english is not really that great and also i'm an asian so rip
japansese
but you're typing it fine thou
that is typing

We do have a Korean one
@ember oak for me customs dorms is always busy
but he is EU lel
@ember oak play on populated servers and go to hotspots early
@fickle kettle your literally have a tag for english
cause there is no japanese if i remember
@halcyon belfry yes dorms is the one place i can find pvp consistently but as a solo dorms is kind of hard
and i can use english so why not π
come to the vc let me test my japanese and your english @fickle kettle \
LMAO
english is a US flag
as it should be
lmao
π
@bold kernel do you want to compare population
Who doesnβt speak American
idk man

maybe we can talk this over in AMERICAN @desert hull
