Labs is not worth it
which armor would you guys recomend? i looked it up a bit and as a beginner i would go for a lvl4 and try to get one with high armor points as cheap as possible?
Off topic
Tactec<3
ya
true, but it kills those m4 spammers so quickly
If you buy a tactec for 145 your dumb im sorry 
Tactec has a glitched hitbox
damn that suppressor on the mp7 seals is expensive
covers your chin
youll be killed couple of scavs then you think u have 20 bullets in ur mag then u shoot boom u run out of ammo
it costs more than the receiver lmao
I pretty much always run a mosin as my backup weapon
because I know 100% I can kill with it
Slowly , if u miss a mosin shot , then ur pretty much dead
oh no, I take other guns with my mosin
people like me , i always missing the first shot
my mosin is my backup, but I don't miss much
WHo carries 2 weapons
people who suck at full auto
Five seven best backup
🙂
uhh
Backup?" what's that
...what don't you understand about the mosin being a backup weapon
Avs
I carry a mosin loaded with 10 rounds in my secure
Not that part. I never bring 2 weapons. Most never do
It is
slowly
just in case I get into a long range gun fight
how tf do u do that
🤷
You can't gave fguns in your container
No, I carry my mosin in my #3 slot
the ammo in my secure
when I find a better gun I ditch the mosin
I have like...14 mosins
1 gun per run
they're expendable now
More loot spots
Hey man, you do you
I'm only losing like 20k if I ditch a mosin
vs dying cuz I didnt have one
Can always drop your insured mosin and get it back
^^^^
Whatever floats your boat
I have a constant flow of mosins being returned
uhh no
😄
Helmets are a money pit
Contacts bad



my point is
Na I really dislike comtacs
fast headphones are overpriced
not funny
current loadout
I like the cammo sordins
Nope, i lightened it in paint 🙂
my eyes are fucking dying
No it's freestyle
banned
Looks good to me 
my fucking eyes strain from that
🤷

heading out broskis
Any advice for nightraids?
don't do them
@upbeat flax wtf is that crop
They’re fun
Just take another 20 seconds to plan before you yolo
wanna see my loadout?
I like the mask thing!
Gotta love those volkov shitposts
kek
rr is actually useful
why

@silver dome I might have been ok with that m4 if you had a real sight on it
no lol the sight is for 0 ergo
Backupsight ignores ergo penality
is it worth using paper maps and how do they work
:c
Dont
n meow , if u really need a map and dont have a second monitor , phone or anything esle then just buy it
learn it fro mthere
Backup sights ignore you ergo 100 percent
otherwise do not
oh my god guys i can't run a map without my meta m4 build with 100 ergo and -50000 recoil and my favourite armor in the game 5.11 Tactec plate carrier
@upbeat flax 
i know most of the maps i mean don't they show loot and stuff
aswell as my moist lzsh helmet with overpriced GSSHs and multi-hit face shield uwu
Because they’re the best
overpriced GSSHs = Ops-core headset
imagine not using a fast mt

Shhhhh
Don't tell him
this dude posted a pic of his m4
then next to it
m856a1
cant even kill a scav with that ammo m995 or go home
@silk laurel you're a bit rarted if you think you can't kill most people with 856a1 tho
^
its just dumb to have a fully meta m4 and not 995
hjahahaha
Use fal or m1a
i just took that kit out and got 1 shooted by a kid with a mosin
you deserve it
2 mins ijn
meta boy
stfu
did u find that m4 in a raid?
off flea?
m4 is def not 1m but ok
i mean 1 mill as my whole set

im about to do labs with a fiveseven 🤡
okay clown
mr. equips loadout just to flex and then goes to do the exact opposite thing on a different map

to look ugly as fuck
and show who has no fun in the game
Dude, I love when I get into firefights where after your like "hell yeah awesome fight, glad that dude killed me"
me too
@pseudo mural yw
what
you know when that doesn't happen?
when you play against someone like @silver dome

I 100% just died to a dude where he flat out just outplayed me
knew you were going to say something about me
and it was baller
i appreciate those fights
like, i'm fine with him getting the fal I had on my scav, he deserves it, that was a nutso fight
i die while laughing a lot myself, that shit is the best
we fought all the way from road to customs to the crane
wtf
Ya
we started off far apart, he took potshots from the woods I ran down the otherside, traded fire when I could, he took off running for crane, i had the position at the truck and he finally domed me
finally u can play on the new map suburbs!!!!
man that was so cool lol
😄
Woods expansion when
never
my labs loadout 😉
:d
hope you get blasted by a raider with a kedr
ima try YOINK some ledxs
for yoinking it wouldn't even use bodyarmor tbh
5.45x39 bt good for budget?
yes
epic games
just keep in mind that BT = tracer
shit
so people know where you shoot from
bs would be fine though right
man fuck thats actually hard to tell
May be ac2001/2
green helmet narrows it down
6b47 i think
dont think its a 6b or a 2001
Why so?
well maybe
it might be oddly coloured by the area or something
why do you want to know xd
because that face looks weird
just curious
it almost looks like an altyn
ye
that face is 100% faceshield
altyn time
altyn snipe
if you put those two pictures together there's a story to be had

the moment he knew he fucked up
Hm
what do you mean what do
idk
you know whats funny @upbeat flax @strange mural
I died to this DOOD right afterwards
penis > altyn
what's funny
i don't get it
you can see the dead dude in the background
and his homie skeets around the corner after me
cause he was right on top of me when I shot
I hate when bushes look like friggin people
@bold kernel killed an altyn lad only to die to a penis helmet
@desert hull wanna team up? i need to do tarkov shitter pt. 1
yeah
I just bought the game, i'm getting fkg destroy, anyone wants to party up and help me?
god killer
he blapped me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTkhRhFg0Js @bold kernel Altyn > everything else
@upbeat flax tbf probably fake
so yeah, wanna play?
@past furnace #news-setup #521628660298678283 #sherpa-info
also: nothing worse than ignoring the voice in the back of your head, and then dying because of it seconds later
TTV-110 or trooper imo
budget
I run avs for all my reserve runs
6b3tm if super budget
6b3tm = tier 4 rig for only 47k
just not that much space, but you dont need that anyways if ur budget
repairs decent aswell and people never loot it off you
ye i think i'll just get 6b5-15
oh i c
ceramic repairs horrible so you basically have to throw it away
after its been shot at
ceramic is also the lowest durability armor
6b3tm is just best tier 4 you can get for <50k
people roll with it a lot, especially now it's buffed to 40 durability
(previously 30)
for 47k it's kinda a no brainer for budget
also a thing to keep in mind with durability
the lower it is (compared to it being max (full)) the less bullets it stops
as in, bullets penetrate it faster, the lower it is
and the real durability is hidden, different for armor materials
and the reason ceramic is 1 time use. is that let's take 6b5 which is 50/50 dura full.
if you repair it once it'll prob be around 36/36 or so
which is effectively 36/50
so you walk around with broken armor essentially
even though it's repaired.
a 36 ceramic can stop less bullets than a 36 aramic
so ceramics are pretty bad lol
bad repair bad dura
relatively speaking bad anyway
that's also what makes Trooper and Tactec so good
yo Veyx, do you have tips for eliminating targets
ultrahighweight polyethene is the shit in Tarkov
it repairs SUPER good, only losing like 0,5 max dura
and it's one of the best materials at stopping bullets
in terms of dura
@next phoenix shoot them in the head
lol
hipfire if you have auto with a laser
😄
@silver dome if you never done labs, dont go in with that Lol
If you’re asking. I wouldn’t go
well then you know the answeer
never made it out alive
then dont bring that
Lol
which is essential
you need to know how to get to medbay extract at the very least
as it's one of the best extracts in labs
its pretty hard
labs is so big
so many floors
its confusing
isthere any particular map you suggest?
bruh
@silver dome nice helmet
dont use a map for labs
i hope you get one tapped by a hunter boi
thonx
just scout it out till you know how it works
or go in with budget loadout
i mean, you need to know how to make money on labs and all in-outs before it's profitable
im gonna go offline
how to kill raiders
veyx are u good at labs
decent
i mean i'm not quatroace level lol
watch him
he's live now
prob one of the best solo labs players
lol?
im not watching a steam to learn labs i'd prefer a video
what is this? some sort of advertisment?
it can help you find out how to play as labs is all about sound / be fast + aggressive
then go watch a video...
true
do groups spawn together
bruh wtf
@silver dome wiki
bruh
lmAO
!wiki labs
you bring in a fucking meta m4 build but don't know the map
aYy
ho i extrak guis
You could work on tasks. That would give you goals to work on
yes @silver dome
meta m4, armor class 6 armor, but no 995 bullets
if I just wanna farm some raiders for gen4
i usually just bring sordin, 6b3tm, hunter
hey guys
where are the loot hotspots in lab?
a thing with bringing in bigdick gear in labs
is that if you die
everything is 100% lost
coz there's no insurance
so you need to essentially bring a big backpack and such
because you need to make more profit than your gear is worth
which is hard if you bring in max gear
and if you're not good, makes it worse.
labs isn't really about looting
just kill raiders
check dome and server room
and run

because your gear there is worth let's say 700-800k. That means you need to make 700-800k+ before dying.
and if you dont know where ledx/vpx is, that's a hard thing to do
because even just farming gen4's takes a while
wheres dome?
to get 800k
is it this?
and 150k for the keycard
this one dome?
Dome is in the middle
it's a very cool thing
activate windows
cant lol
loot is gone within 30seconds usually@silver dome
around dome = the loot
everything below there
on tables and such
cat statue has VPX
wheres the server room
volkov what lvl ru
thats managers office
spawns a yellow keycard
but you need managers office key
to get in the actual room that has valueable loot
like multiple bitcoins and such
and behind the desk sometimes spawns green keycard
but you're late
if you didnt get here within 1min of spawning
the loot is gone 90% of the time
because ppl rush there, especially since there's multiple good dome-spawns
and you wanna get out before raiders are called
im in offline mode
@cyan cape 6b3tm imho (for tier 4)
it's just as expensive as tier 3
and has a rig included
aight thx
is it even realistic to get into tarkov as a solo player?
if you're a masochist
solo is the best tbh
i went from being ass to being 3/4th of an ass just by playing with someone experienced
no being bossed around
@stable nova so far I haven't been very sucsessful, but it is possible.
dont have to tll ur teammate to stay still
u dont have to ask if its them everytime u see an enemy
i mean i have good amount of rubles, but getting quests done is quite hard for me
Yea I've played primarily solo f or 2 years
Off topic
oFf tOpIC
@stable nova quests just kinda suck yea 😄
guy asking if it's viable to learn the game as a solo in #beginners-assistance
offtopic
its very realistic
although i used a lot of youtube videos
now im bored and only play if its with someone else
nothing left to do xD
or will it get easier once im lvl 15 and have access to better gear? i know i can buy the same stuff on flea, but im not rly doing it
what are you using rn
most things on flea are just slightly more expensive, so its not a huge deal at the moment
compared to buying straight from a trader
@stable nova the moment you hit lvl 5 you basically have access to anything
but getting higher traders just makes certain attachments way cheaper (especially over extended periods of time)
of buying the same attachment/item over and over
but usually people sell for a few K's more than the trader price
so it's not that bad
I personally wouldn't bother modding weapons till you hit lvl 2 prapor/skier/mechanic
because by lvl 2 you get access to a lot of decent attachments
emelya goes from 13k to 6.5k etc
expensive
actually not faster than quick reload pretty sure


when killa runs about on interchange he really looks like a kid who slapped on daddy's motorcycle helmet
My day goes like this. I kill a pmc. His tri is loaded. Lion etc. two graphics cards. I transfer my better loot. Hear killa. Right click drop. Then grab his Tri. Turn and run for extract. I’m in the woods. I check and I have my pack. I grabbed the wrong one. I am mad. Go back and it’s gone. So I pout all the way to extract.
I did find a lion in a suitcase today. That seemed odd
if i were a lion i would hide in a suitcase tbh
ive only had the game 42 days
That actually happens way too much @trail narwhal
I do that all the time and I have no clue why
imagine dropping your gamma container you paid 100$ for
instead of dropping your backpack
Omg
i realized it after like a minute lol
is there no way in this to stop reloading an sks?
hold lmb
Ouch
hi
Is small thicc worth the 3m
I like it. Bought two the other day
is there a looking for group section?
you mean small SICC?
Only paid 2 1/2 each though. They've gone up.
I’m talking about the one that holds keys
yes it's worth it imo
its called a small thicc
sicc
@bold kernel #521628660298678283
K. I will grab
I have shoreline and customs keys.
is there any way to check a face shield without going into an offline raid?
shooting range
I wouldnt put in custom keys honestly
I tried the shooting range :(
yeah it seems buggy
customs has too many keys for dorms that'r all pretty average unless you roll customs a lot
but shoreline keys will take over 60-70% of your SICC
Ahh
I have customs keys on a seperate keyhanger
shoreline/labs/kiba fit in 1 sicc case. and for reserve.. well i dont run reserve a lot
but you prob would have to replace shoreline with reserve if you do reserve keys too
Ya. I really need room for in raid loot keys and cash
I’m level 19! The game is really becoming fun. I’m actually winning gun fights
map knowledge helps a lot
which is what kills most new players im sure.
hearing sound and knowing where metal/wood is, is super valueable.
and know where to go to get in/out and such
prob more important than just "good aim" or a meta gun what most people think.
is there any use to upgrading hideout security?
do quest rewards disappear if i leave them with the trader?
Nope
wonderful
you can keep it in the trader stash forever
so just leave it in till you wanna sell or use it
i wish insurance returns worked the same way:( i lost two mosins because i didnt know they disappear after a wall
while*
How can i join groups or get invited?
@frail forum Security and Vents are needed for certain other upgrades
they themselves do nothing though
ahh gotcha
@frail forum Basically just a sink of money and time to progress through the hideout
fair enough
it looks expensive, but it's not.
making money is easy in this game, but if you haven't done loot runs in interchange or so
then yea stuff is expensive
I see
i mean, a beginner is not able to afford 50k-ish for armor, 100k-ish for a gun and so forth
that alone goes for like 100-200k
but once you're established and know how to make money
rolling with it all the time doesn't hurt your eco
^
Ill have some money in a minuit cause I spawned in as a scav with a labs card on him so im about to sell it
yeehaw
Just play it slow with cheap guns
like vepr km
till you got a decent bank
and slightly upgrade your gear
as you get better
bruh , idont understand why people have gear fear like EVEN if you make out with the stuff ,your most likely gonna lose it within the 6 months before the wipe 🤡
are you guys jealous of my chad M4
looks cool
no
aesthetically
i have a tt
but the specs are probs aids
@desert hull that looks like a premodded m4 you find in labs
@stone surge raiders have good taste
that costs like 150-200k and has horrible recoil
37 @silver dome
whats the recoil on the m4
why
if its for ergo i dont think u would be doing full auto alot
it's only 13k to get an M4 over ADAR
and the recoil isnt that bad
it just isnt meta
its like 65 vert
aesthetics
ew
that sight looks so silly
who cares about aesthetics
it is silly
Mfw meta
yep , but it gets the job done
I mean meta is meta
Meta=/=good looks or coolness
snutri have you turned to the dark side or something
No
are you putting dildo grips on your guns
We are on the same point
speak the truth sinner
Did you not read what i said
what im running atm
why are uagainst the helmet
Meta isnt aesthetic or cool
?
its class 3
so?
everything penetrates class 3
its not like someone wouldnt 1 tap against a helmet anyway
Fooken scavs can spawn with class 3 pen
im not running labs 🤡
that helmet is fine as a mid-tier loadout on another map like customs
is not fine with a zhuk6
I prefer michs
lol
Face shield is just scav protection if you dont run a full helmet
yeah many scavs spawn dorms
Real mans weapon
LOL
Air Frame
just pick one
how do i change my in game name?
wym just pick one
which is the best of the 3?
air frame is better as you can just wear sordins + put the side things on it
fast MT doesn't allow that
chops or ears?
if you can put faceshield and sordins thats good
Mt and frame are pretty much the jack of all trades
@stone surge do you have the mods for that meta m4?
Chops are jaw protect
No they don't, they're just as good as a faceshield
if what you say is true
then just dont wear faceshield
yes so it's good

faceshield is nice.
Just run a thermal visor
it's double protection
Also cant you still put on the shit face shield
just run a plasma shield
dont think so, are you going to make me buy it to see?


ayy
Airframe + Chops + Sordins + Faceshield = best helmet imo
now thats a helmet
chops protect ears

so
Yeh
or Zshs if poor
Zsh is still A- helmet though
only downside is no hearing
I'd still use it on other maps
if in squads
i really wanna know the realism of headsets
Yeh
because irl , dont they make hearing worse?
I’d run an ACH variant before ever running ZSH.
🤡
they let you hear perfectly fine without gunshots being deafening

like
They let you whisper to team mates between fire
doubt they're specifically used to hear footsteps or shit thugh
Then you can also run headset. Face shot you’re dead anyways. And if shield cracks in raid your screwed anyways
i wear my headset while masturbating but i cannot amplify my moms footsteps coming up the stairs?
You havent ever seen a active headset
I mean
Each headset has their own value. Some have no value lol
it would probably work @silver dome
The black tac sports or sordins are the best
your moms gonna wonder why you're wearing your tactical headset at 3am though with your pants down
@silver dome 😂😂
Actives are
irl tho
I’m considering buying a broken pair or sordins and stuffing my headset speakers inside them 😎
We had em in army
That, and every SOF unit we have in the US lol
Of course on special cases tho
yeah but I'm not a special boy in the military
They are semi ecpensive
I'm a nerd idiot at house
I think we had comtacs in the army
No less than $300 ya
You dont go cheap on them
For normal people shooters with out comms. Comtacs are mad expensive
the ol rubber earplugs probably work best for common people @grand elm
the idea is just to not have hearing loss by age 34
question
O when you run into positions you dont fuckn prioritize your headphones
does the armor add up twice if shot through the shield into the chops?
Probably
@strange mural can we get a sad pepe meme for @grand elm 's ears
You dont really need headphones too bad in the open especially on a single shooter

We had to run double protection on roofed shooting ranges
Mandatory
plus it would trigger the fins whenever the retards misinformed people called it a PPSH
Legit didnt know half of the finnish arsenal before i got out
damn what to do when I cannot shoot anymore and reloading doesnt work either?
I didnt heal
Have smmo in pockets?
find a safe corner and alt f4 and restart game
Ammo needs to be in pockets or belt
I got everything
Lol you guys are clowns haha. Love it
can you stop the reload animation on an sks?
yes
click fire button
but like... spam it
cause the game sometimes doesn't recognize the first click
Double click*
does it always require 2?
Afaik
unload?
Put a mag inmy rig
sixpack key is nothing
anyone in here want a sicc case
Doesn't work
that doesnt have one
How much?
Is there anyway to save an already modded weapon as a preset?
Ah, thank you very much... I didn't notice that since it was grayed out xD
scav shot me while looking the other way lmao
ANYONE WANNA JOIN MY GROUP OF TWO AND RUN LABS?
I GOT THAT BUT THEY ARE ALL LOCKED FOR LABS CURRENTLY
then.. don't?
#MINDYABUSINESS
Calm down with the caps m8
also that.
Waffle. Caps lock. Also, just create a new labs channel by joining the one without a number
sorry i was creeping last match
yeah..
You know no voice channels all locked right
maybe.. uh.. do your research.. it legit says to make a new labs channel
Just join one
im not yelling!!!
ok thanks guys


Calm down ladies. Inform the man, don’t scold him. Lol
this is the first time i see you in this chat
You learn by being scolded
try being here like 2 hours a day and listen to obvious anwsered-questions
also what TQ just said
I wonder what the logs would say is the number of literally brand new players joining this server every 10 minutes. If you don’t have patience for noobs you should be in the noob chat 🤷♂️
Just saying, responding like that and jumping a new guy with your homies isn’t gonna want him to stick around
Nobody was insulting him. The closest anyone came to being rude was when he said "#MINDYABUSINESS" everything else was just peaceful AF XD
What's the best thing to craft with sugar?
Moonshine.
@bold kernel
2 moonshine one purified water. Made in the booze generator
If you don’t have it yet, I’d just sell the sugars. Very pricey
Guys please relax, this is usually a nice chill chat just answers no aggro 😄
Yeah I don't have that yet, have like 20 sugar though
I would sell them for 50K each @bold kernel
Cool thanks fellas
@bold kernel join beginners assistance voice chat please
It doesnt let me
