Did they change it?

lethal roost
#

Flea? What do you mean? @split vapor

vivid basalt
#

@blissful quarry Play the game :x Learn where to aim and be aware.
Factory is mostly just gonna make you loose money fast unless you only run in with scavs.

Might as well just start being aware of your surroundings and being more aware where you aim and how you move.

chilly schooner
#

Is there no way to see which guns a mod will fit on in game?

fallen crane
#

@lethal roost when you reach level 5 you have flea market which is basically ebay. you can buy all the modding parts there without having to grind trader levels

lethal roost
#

Yeah I know that part. I meant without having to buy or grind for months just to get a gun you might lose in the first raid you try.

bold kernel
daring aspen
#

I just found a West 216 key, and it sells for 1 mill at Thera, should I keep it or sell it? I have no clue where this is for lol

fallen crane
#

i'd restart game toast

bold kernel
#

Alright

fallen crane
#

guns and attachments aren't that expensive @lethal roost

split vapor
#

just buy something

bold kernel
#

Is "playing the flea market" the best way to make roubles?

split vapor
#

meh

vivid basalt
#

flipping deals on the flea market can make you a lot of roubles if you're the right place at the right time totally. :x but its not the most reliable way.

round ridge
#

Depends if you want to play escape from tarkov or flea market sim

lethal roost
#

Fucking hell. Lost all appeal to the game

vivid basalt
#

there are stuff people undercut that you can vendor at a higher price, like condenced milk for 10k which vendors at the terrapist for 18k.

round ridge
#

Good idea for levelling therapist is buy condensed milk when it is below 18.7k and sell it to her

#

Oh yeah

vivid basalt
#

There is a similar trade for Skier too namely the MK3 vest :x

#

goes for above 29k to skier, but people undercut it for as low as 20k or less.

blissful quarry
#

yeah i used that vest to level him, barely made money because i was often buying it for 28k, but leveling him for free was worth something

vivid basalt
#

yeah its a nice no loss way to level him.

round ridge
#

How do I level jager cuz I have like maybe 50k with him

daring aspen
#

yo wtf, The West Wing room 216 sells is selling for 300k on the market okay... Therapist is buying them for 1.1 million wtf

lucid flax
#

What suppressor goes on the Mosin?

grand elm
#

Brammit

split vapor
#

a few now

round ridge
#

TIME TO MAKE MONEY RIZA

lucid flax
#

Which one is reasonable to afford?

grand elm
#

Just use the Brammitt

lucid flax
#

ok

opaque ferry
#

@lethal roost i suggest you understand what the game is about... Pure risk vs Reward

daring aspen
#

wait, it was 110k

#

god I suck

#

I just lost a lotta money

round ridge
#

🧸

gray oyster
#

Just had my first succesful extract. what should I be doing with all the misc. loot like lightbulbs, hard drives, etc.

daring aspen
#

such a nooooob

open basin
#

lmfaoooooooooooooo

round ridge
#

It’s ok

lethal roost
#

I know, I#ve had a good bit of fun in the game, lost some stuff, got some stuff. And now I can't enjoy it as i wished

round ridge
#

Rip

pseudo mural
#

I lost over 2mil today Riza

#

but I also gained 6mil

#

sometimes you lose sometimes you win

#

🀷

#

found a crapton of christmas ornaments in safes on shoreline

daring aspen
#

I found an ornament, idk what to do with it lol

pseudo mural
#

sell it on FM

daring rampart
#

I thought that scav's wouldn't attack other scavs unless provoked. Is this not true?

daring aspen
#

they sell for a lot ye, tf

pseudo mural
#

most scavs won't

#

scav boss 100% will attack everyone always

daring aspen
#

provoking can be just aiming at them I am pretty sure as well, if u did that

pseudo mural
#

also, if you are a player scav and you injury yourself via fire

lucid flax
#

@grand elm is there something i need to add to use it? it dont install onto it

pseudo mural
#

it pisses them off, happened yesterday to me but pretty sure it was just a bug

#

cuz I tried to repeat it

daring aspen
#

well, I spent about 800k on 2 guns about 2 hours ago, used 1 of the kits and made 300k in 1 run, I think that was decent. Night raids are the way to go

pseudo mural
#

why are you spending 400k per gun

#

?!?!

blissful quarry
#

probably thermal scopes and shit since its night runs

open basin
pseudo mural
#

a cheap AK-74n has 58 recoil and cost like 95k

tiny void
#

wtfffffff @daring aspen

daring aspen
#

to make the gun itself was about 260k, the ammo and mags were about another 100k

pseudo mural
#

just go run shoreline military boxes or interchange military boxes

daring aspen
#

then I made a NV helmet for 50k

#

and I am wearing Gen4

pseudo mural
#

and grab the gear you need to get a AK-74N with low recoil

rapid lagoon
#

new anyone wanna help me learn

pseudo mural
#

i killed a dude earlier who had a seriously impressive kit...using a veprKM with the cheap scope and no armor/helmet

#

sometimes your just unlucky and the other guy gets a lucky shot

pseudo mural
#

you got domed by a dude high up i think

#

you never looked around though

placid stream
#

what's the best place to find in raid morphine syringes?

#

i've had this therapist quest for ages and can't find shit

pseudo mural
#

Shoreline

#

easily, in the resort/spa

#

you can do all 5 in one raid pretty easy

opaque ferry
#

@placid stream shoreline / resort

dense patrol
pseudo mural
#

you dont need to survive

#

just go in, grab em, prison pocket em

#

exfil or die

#

super easy

gray oyster
#

prison pocket? secure container?

pseudo mural
#

ya

#

stuff them up your butt.

opaque ferry
#

yep prison purse

placid stream
#

where on shoreline / resort?

opaque ferry
#

kiester em

placid stream
#

i haven't played those maps much

opaque ferry
#

anywhere in resort

pseudo mural
#

2nd floor resort

tiny void
#

there he was @ocean tree

placid stream
#

alright cool 2nd floor resort it is

pseudo mural
#

ya didn't look around

#

got fixated

#

although he did shoot ya pretty damn fast after you dropped your target

tiny void
#

Love the detail, if you slow down frame by frame u see his laser inching closer along the wall

pseudo mural
#

ya

opaque ferry
#

@lethal roost general rule of thumb is to run kits that you can easily replace 3-4x immediately, so Mosin Man till you got money

pseudo mural
#

i had something similar happen earlier in brutal

#

saw the dudes laser training slowly on me from the corner

rain oar
#

Guys, I died on delivery from the past after putting down the docs in factory. Do I gotta get the docs again?

pseudo mural
#

just blind fired it and managed to kill him

opaque ferry
#

yes @rain oar

rain oar
#

Fuck.

pseudo mural
#

yes, you need another

#

that's why that quest is a bitch

rain oar
#

I want to stop doing Customs already

pseudo mural
#

haha

#

i feel the same way

rain oar
#

I even prefer Woods over Customs

pseudo mural
#

I just refuse to do it right now, it's just sweaty boy after sweaty boy rushing dorms for marked and reshala

#

woods/interchange/shoreline is 1000x better

#

but if you want PvP, customs is where it's at

rain oar
#

Eh, Labs.

pseudo mural
#

factory doesn't count for me, cuz it's not real pvp

opaque ferry
#

shoreline resort for the pvp

rain oar
#

Even then I'd prefer Labs

pseudo mural
#

ya, shoreline resort is really fun pvp

rain oar
pseudo mural
#

customs pvp in dorms is just awful

#

"who has better ping"

opaque ferry
#

nah who has better fps πŸ˜›

pseudo mural
#

I get a steady 105-110 unless scoping down a few scopes in customs

#

it's still awful

rain oar
#

^

pseudo mural
#

it's all about who peaks first

#

which is ping related I think?

rain oar
#

I get constant 120 but when I scope in with certain scopes

#

Thats ping

#

yes

#

peekers advantage and all that jazz

pseudo mural
#

like, i've died multiple times to people who I knew were there

#

and never peeked on my screen

rain oar
#

And I get spawned right next to dorms

#

great lul

bold kernel
#

yep i just done customs twice geared to do the therapist quest and lost everything

pseudo mural
#

my friend and I had that happen earlier, he saw the guy peek and I didn't even though we were both looking at the same area, only difference was his ping was 41 mine was 132

dense patrol
#

Where do you see your tarkov ping?

gray oyster
#

What map is easiest to learn on? so far i've only played customs.

fallen crane
#

customs is easy, interchange isn't too hard and good for making money

wooden gyro
#

how do I take the front sight off of an ak 74n?

dapper drum
#

Is it meant for us not being able to see what has been written here before? We cant see message history

open basin
#

interchange has some sweaty bois running it rn

opaque ferry
#

i would steer clear of interchange at the moment if you dont want to lose alot of gear as alot of people are trying to farm Killa... as for making money... Reserve is good map

open basin
#

yeah the sweaty bois are trying to farm their 100 killa kills rn

opaque ferry
#

and I am one of those bois πŸ˜‰

open basin
#

im running customs atm

#

cuz customs is fun

#

i went on to interchange as a scav rn and there were so many dead bodies in the middle of the mall

opaque ferry
#

that is a legit way to make some $$ or gear right now.. spawn as scav wait in a changing room till about 20m mark and then loot the bodies next to kiba

pseudo mural
#

I managed a 6 player kill customs earlier

gray oyster
#

nice.

rain oar
#

Oh boy, shots being fired at the office I need to go to lul

pseudo mural
#

seems like sweaty boys left customs for interchange atm

#

which is good for me and other newbs

proud crane
#

About to run a Scav Custom if anyone wants to join.

pseudo mural
#

i ran into a 4 man squad of lvl 23-25s, it was crazy, got super lucky

#

best place to find peeps to play with

#

I literally found both of my 5 man squads there πŸ™‚

open basin
#

i spawned my scav run with a mosin that had the monte carlo stock

#

looks so nice

pseudo mural
#

i love that mosin

#

best mosin period

modest marsh
#

Is there not a LFG chat?

pseudo mural
#

you'll see it after the bot approves you

modest marsh
#

@pseudo mural ok thanks

pseudo mural
#

exfil campers on factory are so annoying when your doing the docs quest

#

sigh

#

i even threw a flash

rain oar
#

Thats why I take F1s with me now

#

and do it at night

#

with NVGs

pseudo mural
#

I normally do

#

it was at night with nvg's

#

i had run outta F1's

#

i threw 4 at 3 other peeps

rain oar
#

Or usually I have a pistol with me

#

atleast

#

I have to go back into customs since somebody took the docs already

#

urgh

pseudo mural
#

same

#

3rd time I've done this

rain oar
#

Some PMC

#

actually brought a customs map with him

brisk mortar
#

Wait, what?

#

All quest items are client side

#

Noone can take it from you.

rain oar
#

It wasn't there for me

#

Wait

#

What

brisk mortar
#

Yeah.

#

Did you already have it?

rain oar
#

But I died right after placing the docs down

brisk mortar
#

Or did you take the Task?

rain oar
#

in factory

#

I did take it

#

I even placed the docs in factory

brisk mortar
#

Ok, so you finished placing it, but died?

rain oar
#

and died near the extraction

#

Correct.

brisk mortar
#

So, go back into Factory, pop a scav or two, then extract.

#

That'll complete the Task.

magic zealot
#

Where should I go to find a group to play with

rain oar
#

Oh, will do that then. Thanks @brisk mortar

brisk mortar
pseudo mural
#

that's what I just did Bulls

#

im done with it finally

#

also...I didn't know you could hop on sinks in bathroom on factory

brisk mortar
#

Yup. It's a nice cheeky spot.

pseudo mural
#

ya

#

just got popped from there but survived

brisk mortar
#

That, and I kinda like how Delivery from the Past is like the Task hump.

pseudo mural
#

turned aorund and went thru the top, dropped down and dropped him

brisk mortar
#

Once you finish it, you're ready for just about every other task

pseudo mural
#

ya, delivery from the past is hard in my eyes

brisk mortar
#

Unless you're running it as a 5 man, it's hard for anyone.

pseudo mural
#

the hardest I've done so far is..oddly

#

the 15 scavs on woods

#

like..why was that so hard for me?

rain oar
#

I did that one

#

in one raid

#

πŸ€”

brisk mortar
#

Same.

pseudo mural
#

Yup

brisk mortar
pseudo mural
#

you either have good luck

rain oar
#

I left that raid

pseudo mural
#

or you don't

rain oar
#

with like

#

23 kills or something

pseudo mural
#

nice

#

it took me 3 raids to do it

rain oar
#

Even managed to yeet the scav boss outta there

pseudo mural
#

I kept getting domed early

novel shuttle
#

i have a magazine that says "10 round capacity" but it will only 4 rounds?

pseudo mural
#

before I'd even see a scav i'd get domed from halfway across the map

#

VPO-215 wasteland?

novel shuttle
#

yes!

pseudo mural
#

ya, noticed that yesterday too

#

i saw it had a ten round mag after picking it up from a scav and was like "Neat!"

inner quest
#

why do i get shit on by scavs? like i shit on pro players when I play competetive games like apex and OW but when im fighting an ai or some random other pmc, I get fuckin 2 tapped every time

#

why do i suck

pseudo mural
#

promptly died after hitting 3/4 shots on the body, no pen then being out of ammo

#

Because this isn't a competitive game like apex or OW

inner quest
#

but aim and gamesense transfer

pseudo mural
#

playing those games gave you a slight advantage in your aim

#

no it doesn't not really

rain oar
pseudo mural
#

a lot of people think it does, but that skill you ahve in other games doesn't kick in until later on

#

you mount that fucking NVG to your fuckin baclava boy

#

do it

rain oar
#

dont mind the glasses I have on too

livid breach
#

why is everything sold for alyonkas on the flea? its like some unofficial currency

rain oar
#

Because alyonka

pseudo mural
#

alyonka is like, meme

inner quest
#

how do i get to later on though? my survival rate as a pmc is liek 20%

pseudo mural
#

I've been to an entire store in Moscow that was just alyonka.

rain oar
#

I really hope I dont die like an idiot on this factory run so I can finish the damn task

pseudo mural
#

Glucose, you just keep playing

#

thats it

rain oar
#

Don't think about your survival rate

pseudo mural
#

your SR doesn't matter

rain oar
#

When I started playing EFT

#

My SR was like

#

5%

pseudo mural
#

just keep grinding thru and doing it

rain oar
#

with 300 raids.

#

now its at 43%

pseudo mural
#

mine was 8% with 84 raids

#

now it's 28% with 160

rain oar
#

Though I started playing with in a squad too, that helped

pseudo mural
#

you can also try to find a duo or trio or something in #pvp-lfg Glucose

#

find someone willing to teach a newbie

livid breach
#

also, what upgrades should I go for in my hideout?

pseudo mural
#

Remember, your experience doesn't transfer really yet, there's a lot more going on in this game than just "I shoot him in the head and he dies"

inner quest
#

cant get into the channel, verified on teh board like 2 hrs ago

pseudo mural
#

Get the workbench and nutrition/med bench artifical

#

do those first

rain oar
#

Or you could request a sherpa.

pseudo mural
#

free ifaks and weapons parts

#

;P

inner quest
#

wait nvm that was on the other disc

pseudo mural
#

legitimately man, if you just keep playing

#

you'll get better

signal lava
#

killing the scavs on customs task is so frustrating

pseudo mural
#

it's not a game where you get better due to skill really, you just learn eventually where and why your doing and don't do that

#

Alaine it is 😦

#

keep at it though!

#

hide in a bush until about 20 minutes later

#

you'll have a better chance

livid breach
#

alright, so I got the generator where do i find fuel?

pseudo mural
#

jaeger LL2

#

interchange

#

reserve

rain oar
#

@pseudo mural Im paranoid. No noise in factory..

signal lava
#

jeah will not let the game win i will get my reward xD

pseudo mural
#

oh shit man nah

livid breach
#

what is the fuel called?

pseudo mural
#

metal fuel tank

#

and expiditionary fuel something

#

just search "fuel"

#

it's the two gas cans

signal lava
#

btw what is the choclate worth?

pseudo mural
#

signal lava
#

pseudo mural
#

you can find em in interchange at oli easily

#

chocolate is good, keep it until later alaine

#

I will usually scav into itnerchange, run thru back section of oli

wooden gyro
#

why can't I put on 6b5 armor?

livid breach
#

just realized I can actually enter my bunker

pseudo mural
#

find a eletric motor and some gas and leave

#

you have regular armor on lotheron

#

take off your paca

#

6b5 is a vest

#

not an armor

wooden gyro
#

im nekkid

pseudo mural
#

so it goes in vest slot

wooden gyro
#

oh vest gotcha

rain oar
#

I did it @pseudo mural

#

God Im so glad its over

pseudo mural
#

Also, if you are new like within the past week

#

watch deadlyslob's "beginner basic loadout"

wooden gyro
#

im still nekkid and nothing

pseudo mural
#

as well as some videos on beginner guides and map guides

wooden gyro
pseudo mural
#

it goes in the vest

#

where your commander is

#

take your commando off

#

put armor in vest

#

also, do you like your sight that far up on your rifle?

#

i find it's restrictive

wooden gyro
#

oh geeze

#

I can't mod anything so it goes where it goes lol

pseudo mural
#

get a bastion dust cover/reciever

wooden gyro
#

prob would need to find a different receiver yah

pseudo mural
#

or a cobra or whatever that mount is called

#

bastion is 5k the mount is like 8k

wooden gyro
#

im really just testing things out offline between scav runs

pseudo mural
#

offline works again?

wooden gyro
#

yup

pseudo mural
#

anyways you got the armor on right?

wooden gyro
#

yup Im good ty

rain oar
#

by @steady pilot

wooden gyro
#

thansk bulls, what's the cost on that setup usually?

steady pilot
pseudo mural
#

It's a good build

#

youc an also do a cheap AK-74

#

or a cheap adar

rain oar
#

Well, around 20k

#

technically

pseudo mural
#

can also pick up the ammo for it on reserve

thorny raptor
#

so lower level whats better, akm or vepr 136? whats the difference other than full auto in akm

rain oar
#

None

#

Really.

pseudo mural
#

full auto as a low level is bad juju

rain oar
#

^

pseudo mural
#

unless your in super close quarters

rain oar
#

You can spam the VEPR

#

as if it were fullauto though

pseudo mural
#

i would run the AKM, and run it in single fire mode

#

and switch to auto when I hear someone really close to me

rain oar
pseudo mural
#

I tap fire most of my AKM/AK74 runs

thorny raptor
#

even close quarter i normally prefer single fire

pseudo mural
#

hold on I'll show ya mine Bulls

thorny raptor
#

just wondering if their was a stat difference

naive magnet
#

bro this game is so hard idk what im doing

pseudo mural
#

the muzzle+foregrip+buttstock rubber=low enough recoil to do damage

thorny raptor
#

when in auto mode?

rain oar
#

And you can even spam it

#

Vepr has no full auto

pseudo mural
#

Bulls, you wanna see my Woods weapon or my customs?

rain oar
#

Both

#

I can show you what I used for Woods though lul

pseudo mural
#

k sec

thorny raptor
#

havent had much of a problem with recoil when in single fire

pseudo mural
#

you can super upgrade a VeprKM for funsies

#

it gets stupid good

thorny raptor
#

yeah think im going to stick with my vepr but use my akm for back up in case i lose it on raid and someone grabs it

hollow vault
#

Lookin for newbs like myself to learn the game with 420 friendly 18+

rain oar
thorny raptor
#

mosin is so good and fun to use

pseudo mural
#

customs, interchange, woods from left to right

thorny raptor
#

even takes out low level pmcs or pmcs with low tier armore

rain oar
#

The scope makes my game lag so hard though lul

pseudo mural
#

doesn't bother mine thankfully

rain oar
#

Me neither. Would still be nice to have my constant 110 FPS though, ya feel

livid breach
#

what interface elements does the "always show interface elements" setting show?

rain oar
#

Your health and the buttons

livid breach
#

oh ok

thorny raptor
#

buttons for what?

#

like your hotkeys

rain oar
#

yes

#

Where you can hotkey your meds and stuff

#

pretty useful to see your health without going into the menu

thorny raptor
#

right

#

wouldnt that drop frames?

pseudo mural
#

but ya, those 3 weapons

#

are my "saved" weapons

#

the dovetail okp-7 is amazing

thorny raptor
#

and use a decent chunk of the screen

rain oar
#

It doesnt really bother me

pseudo mural
#

but ya

thorny raptor
#

ill have to check that out. never thought about using it to my advantage

pseudo mural
#

if you haven't ran with an OKP7 dovetail with an AK model(5.45 only/SKS)

#

do it

#

best reflex optic in game

thorny raptor
#

what level are your pmc's?

pseudo mural
#

brazen owl
#

31

pseudo mural
#

quest get levels

brazen owl
#

or go into labs/reserve and dont loot, just focus on killing scav raiders

pseudo mural
#

as a new player, don't do that

#

lol

brazen owl
#

yeah, true

urban rampart
#

Is a higher or lower accuracy number better?

brazen owl
#

higher the better

urban rampart
#

Thank you

pseudo mural
#

higher, I run a higher accuracy lower ergo on my cheap woods gun

rain oar
#

@pseudo mural Hey, I did that once. "Oh a lab access card? Let me go into labs"

pseudo mural
#

lol

#

ya

rain oar
#

10 minutes into the raid I was actually decked out

#

till I got memed on by 3 raiders

pseudo mural
#

I've done labs twice, I got good gear, killed raiders

#

then got naded both times

brazen owl
#

they`re either super duper strong or dumb

rain oar
#

I rarely use nades

pseudo mural
#

got engaged by 3 raiders at once

#

and they all threw nades

rain oar
#

They just give away your position tbh

brazen owl
#

start using them, bulls, you need to level strenght

pseudo mural
#

nah man nades are amazing

#

just gotta use emr ight

brazen owl
#

nades are great, it denies space

rain oar
#

Oh, I cheesed my strength

pseudo mural
#

use em to flush enemies or deny movement/cover

rain oar
#

I did it the Pestily way

urban rampart
#

Beat your friends legs?

pseudo mural
#

you can actually push your enemy using nades

rain oar
#

Beat friends legs

#

and just yeet grenades

brazen owl
#

poor friends

rain oar
#

everywhere

pseudo mural
#

but ya, start using nades as a denial of mvoement/force movement thing

urban rampart
#

I filled a backpack with shotgun shells and walked around the woods

pseudo mural
#

and deny the enemy cover via nades

rain oar
#

I want molotov cocktails..

#

BSG plis

pseudo mural
#

i've gotten SO many nade kills from that

urban rampart
#

I laughed when I died because someone got to loot a thousand buckshot rounds

pseudo mural
#

i look at where they are going

#

see where I'd go for cover

#

fire at em, if they run, throw the nade there

#

works about 40-50% of the time

daring aspen
#

Does gear become uninsured after some time?

pseudo mural
#

because people formulate a plan

#

no riza

#

and if you deny them their plan

#

they are screwed

daring aspen
#

weird, all my gear has been uninsured

pseudo mural
#

they become useless and stupid very quick

rain oar
#

You have to insure your items

#

Once youve claimed your insured items

#

Theyre not insured anymore?

#

I think?

pseudo mural
#

ya when you get em back

#

they're no longer insured

brazen owl
#

nades fuck up ppl using the russian panties Headset which i forgot the name

rain oar
#

I have a vepr hunter scav lul

daring aspen

On my scav lul

wooden gyro
#

woods runs so easy

pseudo mural
#

exfil with his svds

#

bam

#

then go to factory after putting a reflex on it

thorny raptor
#

insuring items is surprisingly cheap

pseudo mural
#

and destroy everyone with 7n1 and bodyshots

rain oar
#

My hunter has a scope already

#

God what is this scav

pseudo mural
#

ya that's the perfect woods scav

#

i took my rsass into factory earlier with a reflex

#

shit got comical

rain oar
thorny raptor
#

straight up lol

daring aspen
#

It just cost me 100,000 to insure items that were insured 30 mins ago aghhh

rain oar
#

Did you insure it with prapor

pseudo mural
#

why are you using such expensive items if your new?

rain oar
#

or someone else?

daring aspen
#

fuck no

rain oar
#

^

#

Well

#

There you go

daring aspen
#

Prapor sucks

pseudo mural
#

dont use them, use what we showed you

rain oar
#

Therapist is now the best to insure with iirc

thorny raptor
#

are you insuring everything you own?

rain oar
#

Thats a bad move

thorny raptor
#

iirc?

daring aspen
#

all the good shit

pseudo mural
#

i dont insure bags/mags, helmets or gssh's, or armor usually

#

cuz 9/10 times if I get armor back it's red

daring aspen
#

hmm okay

thorny raptor
#

or rigs

pseudo mural
#

i do insure rigs cuz it's cheap if your not using an armored rig

fallen crane
#

if you click insure all and it insures a keytool or something in your container then it will be hella expensive

pseudo mural
#

triton is like 2k to insure

daring aspen
#

I got nice rig on, the Belt or whatever

pseudo mural
#

what level are you?

daring aspen
#

15, I haven't done quests for crap

#

I needa do em

pseudo mural
#

why are you doing that withj that much gear?!

thorny raptor
#

true but 9/10x someones going to snag your rig if you take in a good one

pseudo mural
#

Run a vepr KM+armored rig

daring aspen
#

Val is the way

pseudo mural
#

your risking a lot to gain a little

#

your literally playing backwards

rain oar
#

I spawned right next to outskirts and thats also my extract

#

Hmm.. should I just extract.. I kinda want to keep the Hunter

thorny raptor
#

do you man, sitting in this discords gonna get you killed tho lol

pseudo mural
#

your running a val @ lvl 15 and being upset when oyu lose everything?

#

your risking a lot to gain a little, that's backwards

rain oar
#

@thorny raptor Done this so many times and I havent died once yet

thorny raptor
#

damn lucky man right their

#

daring aspen
#

Haven't lost anythin g

pseudo mural

pseudo mural

#

kill everything

trail narwhal
#

What laser is the blue one? I’m at work or I would just log in

#

Is it new?

brazen owl
#

Not new

#

I`ll see if I find the name of it

rain oar
#

Run through as a scav, but idc. I got a hunter now lul

brazen owl
#

@trail narwhal

trail narwhal
#

Thanks bro

#

I’m gonna buy them all. Lol I like

brazen owl
#

Depending on the situation its kind of hard to see the blue dot

trail narwhal
#

I’m torn. I love the As Val. Although I feel the Ak series might be better. Or should I just start using the M4

brazen owl
#

AK cheap

#

Thats the factor that made me decide which weapon I would master first

#

Lvl 2 with AK-74 series (+AK-100s) with no cheesing

#

I run them iron sights, nothing special and its good

#

All it matters is the bullet, not the gun

livid breach

what does lvl 2 in ak do?

thanks

brazen owl
#

~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.~

livid breach
#

do you start out at level 1 or level 0?

brazen owl
#

LVL 1 0 Exp.

livid breach
#

ok

brazen owl
#

But if you`re gonna focus on a skill related to guns

livid breach
#

also what red-dots would you recommend? theres so many of them idk what to buy

brazen owl
#

Go for Recoil Control

#

Go for the cheapest artificial

livid breach
#

ok

brazen owl
#

I like weaver, but its not the cheapest nor the most expensive

#

EK-8-02 is cheap and good

#

EKP-8-18 too

livid breach
#

how do you level recoil control? just full-autoing?

brazen owl
#

OKP-7 is a lot of people`s favourite

#

Just shoot with any weapon

#

And it levels up

livid breach
#

cool

brazen owl
#

So you can grab a glock 18C which is auto, bring a bunch of cheap ammo and spray around

#

i guess its -50% recoil at elite lvl

livid breach
#

wow

fallen crane
#

how long would that take to grind with the skill nerfs and all

open basin
#

there's a skill fatigue rate btw

brazen owl
#

Thats what Nigel means

open basin
#

so you just cant reload your gun over and over to level it

#

forever

#

just play normally

brazen owl
#

What I suggest is, take a few cheap rounds with you

#

And if you have the opportunity, shoot them somewhere

#

Either by the extract, or on some scavs

open basin
#

or just play how you normally do because it's gonna cap super easy

brazen owl
#

The cap is by raid, isnt it?

open basin
#

yes

brazen owl
#

So, as long as you do it every raid, its good

open basin
#

if you just play normally it caps super easy

long spear
#

i read it was a few minutes and it resets within the raid

#

from multiple sources

#

not a per raid cap

open basin
#

they reduced it earlier

brazen owl
#

Hmm, I`m gonna make some research then now that you brought that up

open basin
#

before you would just like reload 5 times and it would be fatigued

fallen crane
#

after the massive nerf i think it was like 7 shots fired to cap recoil

wooden gyro
#

btw for discussion earlier

brazen owl
#

There is visual indication of the fatigue?

livid breach
#

what sights can you put on an adar?

wooden gyro
#

woods is soooo easy just to run through, pick ofa scav or two, and get out with decent gear

brazen owl
#

Artificial, are you lvl 5?

livid breach
#

yeah

brazen owl
#

You can do linked search on your ADAR

open basin
#

there's a red arrow on the skill

brazen owl
#

I`ll make a test then

#

Try to cap it early on the raid

open basin
#

blue arrow pointing up means no cap

brazen owl
#

And see if by the end it goes away

open basin
#

red arrow pointing down means it's capped

livid breach
#

linked search only lists vital, and gear parts

brazen owl
#

Hmm

#

Do you have a railed dust cover on your ADAR?

#

You need a special attachment/part to be able to place certain sights on the ADAR

livid breach
#

oh ok

open basin
#

adar at lvl 5 smiteS

livid breach
#

didnt know about that, this game has so much to know sorry if im boring you with my questions

brazen owl
#

Its alright artificial

#

Where you are, I was too

#

Not long ago

open basin
#

same

brazen owl
#

Lemme check what you gotta do to attach sights

open basin
#

but i dont recommend running the adar at lvl 5

brazen owl
#

Will provide a screenshot in a minute

gaunt berry
#

wtf? I bought a vest from the 'fence' guy and it has 0 /45 health?

open basin
#

ammo is too expensive at that level

#

buying from fence

#

dude is a ripoff

brazen owl
#

@gaunt berry Fence sells used stuff because he buys from players and re-sell them

gaunt berry
#

oh

#

well alrighty then

brazen owl
#

Buy from Ragman

livid breach
#

I was just trying to build a weapon cause I wanted to know how to use it

#

use the system

brazen owl
#

ADAR is a good gun, artificial

open basin
#

it is

brazen owl
#

But in the beginning, go for cheap stuff

open basin
#

but the ammo is expensive for a lvl 5

brazen owl
#

Indeed

#

Less is correct

livid breach
#

what bullets are cheap then?

#

I got like 370k rn

brazen owl
#

Check this artificial, do you see the railed thing on top?

open basin
#

dont cheap out on bullets

brazen owl
#

Called QD LT-101

#

thats where you attach sights

open basin
#

bad bullets will get you killed

livid breach
#

thats what ive heard

open basin
livid breach
#

must take a while to fully learn what have better armor pen

open basin
brazen owl
#

Less is part of the Sw_Delta cult then...

open basin
#

7.62 PS is pretty good beginner round

brazen owl
#

But artificial, thats a good cheap gun

livid breach
#

someone else was telling me about it too

brazen owl
#

And PS is not as expensive as american bullets, thats what ADAR runs with

#

Or if you like to one shot more often, you can get VEPR Hunter

#

Its good too

#

But a bit more expensive

#

7.62x51 round means you can shoot less if you hit them

split vapor
#

h u n t e r is tier 1 trash

livid breach
#

I already got an aks and akm are those bullets cheap too?

#

aks-74*

brazen owl
#

AKM uses same bullet as VEPR KM

#

AKS-74 is 5.45

wooden gyro
#

5 minute woods run through

brazen owl
#

smaller bullet, you`ll have to use BS or BT, which is around 500 rubles

open basin
#

get a sv-98

wooden gyro
brazen owl
#

I suggest using your AKM or the VEPR KM

open basin
#

run a sv-98 with lps gzh

#

cheap

#

not as cheap as a vepr km setup

#

but it's still good

brazen owl
#

how much a sv98 on market now?

livid breach
#

this akm takes .366tkm

brazen owl
#

then no

#

.366 is bad bullet

#

go for guns using 7.62x39

#

They can use a PS round, which is good enough and not expensive

livid breach
#

alright

brazen owl
#

The only thing with VEPR KM is the lack of auto

#

So beware of that

livid breach
#

Ive picked it up from some scavs before

#

havent had much luck with it tbh

open basin
#

sv-98 is around 26-30k

livid breach
#

but ill practice with it

open basin
#

cheaper than the mosin

brazen owl
#

Yeah, just be sure you got the 7.62x39 version

#

the .366 is bad bad

#

Well you have to play differently based on the gun you`re using

#

If you got a vepr km try to tap people from far

livid breach
#

U think I should just sell the .366 akm?

brazen owl
#

Yes

livid breach
#

kk

brazen owl
#

Sell everything you`re not using right now

#

no point in hoarding

#

use your resources to generate more resources

#

do not let resources sit

fresh gulch
#

why cant i but from the prapor dude?

brazen owl
#

and when you`re a new player, always use your scav

fresh gulch
#

i have the items

livid breach
#

I dont have much in here, been selling most of it. just forgot it was in here because it was stashed in a backpack

brazen owl
#

Playing scav will generate you money, game knowledge, map knowledge

#

Everytime its not on cooldown, play it

livid breach
#

I've been mainly playing that, and been play pmc with pm occasionally

brazen owl
#

Dont be afraid to go PMC either

fresh gulch
#

wait dude if i extract as scav do i get the loot?

livid breach
#

yea

brazen owl
#

Yes

livid breach
#

I play my pmc like a scav rn

#

just loot bodies and one tap other scavs

brazen owl
#

try to slowly do quests too

#

its good exp

acoustic timber
fresh gulch
#

is there a squad mode cause i think i need help

acoustic timber
#

it doesnt look like it came from behind me

brazen owl
#

Yes johnson

#

Kuzeno

livid breach
#

yeah i was setting up to do the checking quest, which is why ive been asking questions about loadouts and stuff

brazen owl
#

under the desk thing

#

on the floor

livid breach
#

havent really brought out gear with pmc before tbh

acoustic timber
#

Ohhh

#

i just noticed

#

Sorry

brazen owl
#

look at your gun muzzle

#

you can see the arms of the enemy under it

acoustic timber
#

yeah i barley saw that in the clip

#

watched it like 4 times and still didnt understand

#

thanks

fresh gulch
#

whats the best map for me i just started and im playing scav

brazen owl
#

Some say its woods

#

Some say its customs

livid breach
#

I like customs

brazen owl
#

I dont like customs because there`s a lot of chokepoints

#

I like woods because its open, but the lack of references might be confusing for a new player and you might get lost

#

But after you learn it, its a really simple map

fresh gulch
#

i dont really know any extraction points

brazen owl
#

Go on offline, no bots, and go for every extraction point in a single map

livid breach
brazen owl
#

Thats the most basic thing you can do

#

this one is good too artificial

#

so you learn the loot too

fresh gulch
#

ive seen the map but still i cant find the points

brazen owl
#

How so?

#

If the extraction has ??? it means its possible extraction, not guaranteed

fresh gulch
#

i just get lost i guess

trail narwhal
#

What extract ?

livid breach
#

bought a vepr km, should have realized it didnt have a dust cover so if I want to buy one it would be like 16k

brazen owl
#

dust covers are cheap

#

as far as I know

livid breach
#

the ones with rails arent

trail narwhal
#

Do a dovetail

brazen owl
#

This one is 15k on flea market

#

just attach a stock

#

can be the cheapest wooden stock

livid breach
#

I see dust covers for like 1k but they dont have rails

#

its just the stock one

brazen owl
#

lemme see

fallen crane
#

lmao spawning as scav on interchange at 53 minutes

livid breach
brazen owl
#

this might be the cheapest dust cover

#

with rails

#

8500 from players, 6k from skier

acoustic timber
#

lol people camping factory exit

#

there so fucking hilarouis

brazen owl
#

@livid breach there`s something different you can do too

acoustic timber
#

hilarious

livid breach
#

what is that

brazen owl
#

you can buy this

#

it doesnt need a dust cover

#

and it has a little rail

acoustic timber
#

im so sick and tired of it

brazen owl
#

so you can attach SMALL optics on it

#

you can attach those on that iron sight with rail combo

#

as you can see, no dust cover, but still the possibility to add a sight

#

there`s a way of doing this with a handguard too

#

some handguards have rails on them

#

on top

livid breach
#

is the mrs any good?

brazen owl
#

Walter sight?

livid breach
#

yeah

brazen owl
#

its really good

livid breach
#

nvm someone already bought it

#

I can get a weaver tho

open flower
#

is there a way to tell apart scavs player scavs and pmcs or do i just take an educated guess

brazen owl
#

PMCs clothes are different from scavs

#

Scav AI and Scav player difference = on their gear, if they have a pouch slot, then its player

gaunt berry
#

anyone else getting DC'd from US servers or just me?

open flower
#

ty

fallen crane
#

plus pmc's have a dogtag on them

fresh gulch
#

how do i lvl up to 5 fast?

brazen owl
#

do quests, kill scavs, players, extract

livid breach
#

one sec gonna go play on my scav, shouldnt have it waiting for so long

trail narwhal
#

Wished I could see my stats offline. Like mobile ap or something

livid breach
#

guess i got a vepr km on my scav

brazen owl
#

nice

livid breach
#

does removing the sight on the ak's give a stat penalty because I usually remove them for better visibility

muted juniper
#

i dont think so

fresh gulch
#

uhhhhhhh i just got killed by a invisble man who didnt shoot but killed me with a gun in factory

muted juniper
#

i think you might not be able to zero the sights for 200m but you dont really need to most of the time anyways

fresh gulch
#

????

livid breach
#

he might not have loaded in or something

fresh gulch
#

i think it was an npc

muted juniper
#

welcome to factory

livid breach
#

that how factory be

brazen owl
#

hold on

#

you remove sights from AK?

#

what

muted juniper
#

yea

brazen owl
#

how the hell you aim?

muted juniper
#

no only the rear sights

rotund falcon
#

Can’t remove front sight

muted juniper
#

it makes the ironsights clearer

brazen owl
#

oh ok

#

thought that somehow ppl were removing both sights

muted juniper
#

well you can remove both sights on some guns

brazen owl
#

yeah

muted juniper
#

but its not very practical

brazen owl
#

i`ve killed ppl with no sights on their guns

#

and i was wondering WHY

#

because it was impossible to aim

rotund falcon
#

Idk bro

frozen bone
#

I listed 2 keycards for 190k rubles, and they got bought instantly

#

but there are cheaper ones on the market? did i do something wrong (list them for cheaper than they should be)?

fallen crane
#

anything under 200k sells pretty much instantly

brazen owl
#

you might`ve placed both for 190k?

frozen bone
#

no i did them one at a time

brazen owl
#

hm... ppl just buy key cards around 200k

#

i dont buy them for more than 210k

frozen bone
#

but i see 2 for 160k ea, a few for 180k, etc

fallen crane
#

they have a timer next to it

frozen bone
#

not sure why mine were bought

fallen crane
#

as soon as the timer hits 0 they get snatched up instantly

brazen owl
#

because ppl dont want to always wait

#

and they buy something a bit pricier that is available instead of buying cheaper that needs to wait

frozen bone
#

sorry i don't understand. what does the timer do?

brazen owl
#

after you place an order

#

it takes 1 minute for it to be available

fallen crane
#

when you list something you gotta wait 60s to go live

livid breach
#

should I go do checking with some gear or no gear?

frozen bone
#

these ones say "11h" though?

fallen crane
#

refresh and they'll be gone

frozen bone
#

what does it mean?

livid breach
#

11 hours

frozen bone
#

oh wow yeah you're right they're all gone

#

ok i thought it'd be a live update because the timers are live

brazen owl
#

11h is the time the order will exist

fallen crane
#

im looking right now, theres a shitload of cards for 199,999. everything cheaper than it is getting bought instantly

brazen owl
#

after 11h passes and no one has bought it, item goes back to you and you lose a bit of reputation on flea market

frozen bone
#

oh really. interesting

#

what does reputation do? discount market fees?

fallen crane
#

pretty sure you unlock more listing slots. by default you can only list 3 things at a time

frozen bone
#

oooh ok

#

thanks for all the help guys

sonic lake
#

yeah

#

10 rep gets you an extra slot

#

you dont really get more than 10 unless you play flea market

brazen owl
#

wall street simulator

#

i`ve been playing normally and only got 5.40 rep

didnt know you could get more than 5

last patch playing normally i got about 9 rep?

right now im at 6

thorny raptor

anyone idle enough to maybe help me out with some loot management?

stone surge
#

What do you mean by loot management?

#

what to keep/not to keep in ur stash or?

thorny raptor
#

yeah pretty much

#

shit i might need for quests and stuff like that

#

getting a lil cluttered without cases and only standard edition of game

stone surge
#

there's a pic somewhere that shows everything you need to keep for quests

#

but just honestly

lapis mauve
#

quest page and hideout page has a pic with everything you need

brazen owl
lapis mauve
#

on wiki

stone surge
#

I would sell everything you don't need right now

brazen owl
#

Click on that link

#

It has the image of all items need for quest

stone surge
#

90% of the stuff you need for quests you can just re-buy off flea

#

the moment you need it

thorny raptor
#

thanks @brazen owl

fallen crane
#

do you have a scav junkbox @thorny raptor ?

thorny raptor
#

no i dont

fallen crane
#

its a good investment

thorny raptor
#

where could one get that?

#

off flea?

stone surge
#

buy off flea

fallen crane
#

its a 4x4 container that is 14x14 inside

#

can store barter items

thorny raptor
#

close to level 5 so will do

stone surge
#

it's 1.5mill though

#

so u prob donot have that yet

thorny raptor
#

i have almost 2 mil rn

stone surge
#

ah ok not bad

fallen crane
#

well its definitely worth getting

stone surge
#

but I wouldn't worry too much about items you "might" need in the future

thorny raptor
#

money is not an issue for me in this game ive found bcuz i normally do just sell everything

stone surge
#

just sell everything right now if you need space

#

you can worry about keeping stuff the moment ur higher lvl

#

and have plenty of stash space

#

same with dogtags

#

just sell them

thorny raptor
#

yeah ive looted some guns off players like svds and sv-98 ive been holding onto but im not using them for shit

stone surge
#

then sell

#

100%

#

not worth keeping weapons you do not use

#

because what else you're going to do with it xd

#

and forcing yourself to play a gun you do not wanna play or don't like to play

#

is just stupid

#

sell it and buy a gun you DO like

fallen crane
#

plus they sell for a decent bit of cash

thorny raptor
#

true, honestly just got hyped when i looted them bcuz they have scopes lol

stone surge
#

if you wanna profit max off it

#

dissemble the gun and sell the parts to skier

#

and leftovers to mechanic

thorny raptor
#

thats what ive been doing

stone surge
#

and in general scopes/silencers to flea market

#

as they sell for quite a lot more to people

thorny raptor
#

i have a reap ir as well from an m4 i parted off but i heard it goes for more on flea than it would from skier

stone surge
#

Yes for sure

thorny raptor
#

so thats a good save then?

stone surge
#

idk what skier/mechanic buys it for

#

but it's about 220k on flea

thorny raptor
#

like 144k

stone surge
#

so yea 80k difference

thorny raptor
#

oh yeah i can wait considering its only 2 stash space

stone surge
#

worth keeping it till u unlock flea for that

thorny raptor
#

literally like 1000 xp from flea

stone surge
#

and quest items are not that hard to find either, so just sell sell sell πŸ˜›

#

the only one that comes early and can take a while

#

is cigarettes

thorny raptor
#

thx for the advice my dudes, i found the hand drill on customs

stone surge
#

as thjey need to be found in raid

#

and i remember winston cigs to take a while for me to find

fallen crane
#

wilsons are so rare. I have 10+ of all the other ones

#

and 1 wilston

stone surge
#

yea so keep wilston/winston ciggs

thorny raptor
#

really? i must be lucky i have 6 wilstons

stone surge
#

rest just sell

#

rest ez to find anyways

thorny raptor
#

mainly looted off players

stone surge
#

and for a beginner that has small stash + no cases

#

they generally hoard till their stash is full

#

and playing stash simulator sucks

thorny raptor
#

i normally get rid of everything found in raids

lapis mauve
#

once you can get a scav box you should be good for a while

thorny raptor
#

just held onto some of the higher tier guns bcuz itll be awhile till i get them but i also am not using them so i sold them.

stone surge
#

i got my first scav box when I hit 30. I just sold my items I found right after the raid, so i assumed i never needed it

#

but gosh scav box is nice

thorny raptor
#

the ammo in this game is so in deptht hat it annoys me

#

never know what ammo to hold onto from players or from gun crate spawns

stone surge
#

yea how ammo, armor and sound works is pretty complex and adds a new dynamic to the game

#

that 90%+ of the players do not fully understand

thorny raptor
#

dont get me wrong its really cool

#
