[fathom narwhal]

It's a nade box

[stark moat]

idk

[trim herald]

There is nothing of value in there no

[bold kernel]

are hdd worth alot

[trim herald]

12k or so give or take

Not amazing but better than an empty slot

[bold kernel]

i just found 4

[dense ibex]

what about water filters?

[steady bramble]

if i sell my 416 should i break it down into parts

[bold kernel]

are power cords worth anything

or dvd

[trim herald]

Power cords are 20k or so

[proper ginkgo]

water filters are good

[trim herald]

DVD about 7k maybe

[bold kernel]

what about wires

[trim herald]

Water filters are 80k

[proper ginkgo]

theyre ok

[gilded ridge]

dvd are about 5k

[trim herald]

Wires are 10-15

[proper ginkgo]

use eft-loot.com for flea market values

[dense ibex]

They're full. Does that change anything?

[proper ginkgo]

no if theyre about 80k he meanss when fullk

[trim herald]

@steady bramble Pull off any lasers or optics etc, then check Flea price

You can't get empty water filters

[winter yarrow]

hey hey all @ me if u need anything

[trim herald]

@winter yarrow I'll take a red keycard if you're offering

[winter yarrow]

that would be 1/3 of what i got i love you but not that much lol

[trim herald]

Oh

Fair

😄

[gilded ridge]

@trim herald it was worth a shot xD

[primal kernel]

died with a ton of loot because I didn't have gas station shortcut key fml

[torn widget]

@primal kernel go read rules

[primal kernel]

Sorry, was suggesting beginners get that key, if they don't already have it.

From one beginner to another

[torn widget]

No to get your name blue

So you can look at more channels

Its like a verify thing

[primal kernel]

Oh, I see.

[dense ibex]

jesus playing this makes me feel like im play tetris when moving all my shit to my stash

[torn widget]

true

[icy summit]

@dusky hazel how's dad?

[torn widget]

What do Sherpas do

[gilded ridge]

help new players with raids/quests nd stuff

[torn widget]

Oh

[gilded ridge]

basically show people the ropes as far as im aware

[icy summit]

You are right.

[torn widget]

I had a friend show me around a couple maps when i first started

[icy summit]

Not everyone is as lucky.

[torn widget]

He showed me loot spawns

[icy summit]

🙂

[torn widget]

Yeah

[gilded ridge]

I went into raids with another guy that was new and we learned together

[worn sequoia]

are servers down?

[torn widget]

If i had done Interchange with another new player we wouldve died or just not been able to get out of there

[icy summit]

They have problems, yes.

[gilded ridge]

believe me, we died a lot xD

[modern steppe]

game machine broke

[gilded ridge]

but it was fun

[torn widget]

I played customs first then went to INterchange

[winter yarrow]

due to the high influx of new players the servers are overloading

[gilded ridge]

we did factory mainly

[modern steppe]

yes game machine broke

[smoky warren]

whats a good submachine gun that's welfare ?

[split vapor]

Mp5

[torn widget]

Sorry game machine broke come back later

[split vapor]

Pp19

[gilded ridge]

is mpx cheap? I like running it with luger ammo

[dense ibex]

Fuck servers went down as i was putting my stuff into my stash ;-; will i be able to get em back?

[icy summit]

woah

what are you, RICHMAN

[torn widget]

I collected 8 knives got a MP5 and then sold it

hooray

im lvl 5 and i got 1 mil roubles

[split vapor]

Mpx most expensive 9mm smg

[icy summit]

GT is all you need

[smoky warren]

thanks

[icy summit]

Luger is 2nd most expensive ammo

[torn widget]

I want a Mpx

[gilded ridge]

ahh, with luger you can game end people pretty quickly

[icy summit]

Unless your MPX looks like this

Im not sure what you do with your life

[gilded ridge]

xD i have like 3 mpxs but none look like that. My main one has a holo sight on it and 30rnd mags

[stone surge]

Imagine spending 650 rubles a pop for 9mm bullets

[torn widget]

a pop?

god damn

[icy summit]

Imaigne spending 1.6k

[torn widget]

someones pulling money out of their ass and it aint me

[gilded ridge]

yeah, good ammo isnt cheap :P

[icy summit]

cries in VSS

[split vapor]

Vss lit my dude

[gilded ridge]

lol, I got a vss from twitch drop. havent used it yet

[torn widget]

What a good ammo for AKS-74U

Is mm PS good?

[split vapor]

No

Worse ammo

[stone surge]

@gilded ridge the thing is that 9mm sucks and then paying 650 rubles per bullet makes a bad bad purchase

[icy summit]

I cry every time.

[split vapor]

Just vss things https://streamable.com/ljmpu

[gilded ridge]

use veritas' app, BattleBuddy, to look at the ammo stats

[split vapor]

All you need is sp6

[torn widget]

What is good ammo for AKS_74U then

[stone surge]

save urself money and use SPP lol

or sp-6 yes

[icy summit]

BP/BS/Igolnik

BT

[split vapor]

7n39 is trash and overpriced

[modern steppe]

smgs are so sexy but i hate dying with them

[icy summit]

T if you are a real playa

7N39 is cheaper then BS right now

[stone surge]

7n39 is also worse

except vs killa

[split vapor]

That’s sad

[viral ibex]

umm i keep gettiing extracte with good stuff and i would put it into my stash then it take forever to load out and i crash and lost everything wtf

[stone surge]

iirc it cost same bullets on killa's head/chest as BS

but that only applies to him

[split vapor]

But 7n39 has a chance to not one tap head when going through a helmet

Has a decent chance to only do 34 damage

[icy summit]

You were playing as a Scav, waren't ya?

[gilded ridge]

@viral ibex servers are struggling pretty bad today

[modern steppe]

ya same @viral ibex lol

[icy summit]

Ey, Shootemup

[stone surge]

@split vapor Does this also apply through faceshields actually?

[icy summit]

2/2 Sherpa raids done

so far - 100% win rate

xD

[stone surge]

Like regular tier 3 ones.

[icy summit]

Yeah

[gilded ridge]

must be nice to make it out of raids regularly T-T

[icy summit]

it has very low flesh damage

[split vapor]

Eh probably.

[icy summit]

so low it can come throught the face

come out throught the back

[viral ibex]

i could make easily 100k off of that :(

[stone surge]

I know it applies to altyn but not sure about facemask

[icy summit]

and let the guy live.

[split vapor]

I used it when it first come out. Had a dude live through a head shot

One shot 34 damage

[stone surge]

yikes

[split vapor]

Never used it again

[stone surge]

never again

completely ruins the purpose of being high penetration

[split vapor]

Only use m80 now

It’s pen vs damage

Aka why m80 is great

Does both amazingly

[stone surge]

yh im glad it got nerfed though, i see hunters less now even though m80 is still amazing

[icy summit]

DVL still king

[stone surge]

it was a bit too much for 2$

[icy summit]

Also, Shootem

[stone surge]

per bullet

[split vapor]

They dropped the pen by like 3

It literally did nothing

[icy summit]

Igolnik got buffed like two weeks ago

have you tried since?

[split vapor]

Nah

[icy summit]

37 flesh damage

[viral ibex]

its easy lol @gilded ridge just dont run a lot

[split vapor]

I’ll stick to my 80 damage m80

[icy summit]

You can't run that on my lovely RPK.

[stone surge]

m80 they only nerfed 3 pen not damage right?

iirc they always used to be 80 dmg

but it was mentioned m80 doesn't oneshot tier 3 chest armor anymore

[split vapor]

Yeah it’s still 80 damage

[stone surge]

while it previously did

how did 3 pen change this?

[split vapor]

I have not noticed a difference

99% of people still drop with 1 round

[stone surge]

the guy that made the google sheets about penetration

said it doesnt onetap tier 3 armor anymore

[split vapor]

Probably can’t aim

Lel

[stone surge]

idk doesn't he do thorough research? he's behind the theorycrafting and setting up the docs for penetration/damage numbers.

[split vapor]

@icy summit here’s my sherpling getting shot as I nail the guy https://streamable.com/drtyc

[icy summit]

I had the exact opposite

I spotted a target for my buddy

he offed the target as the target offed me

[steady bramble]

@icy summit how can i request one

@split vapor

[icy summit]

On the forums

on your profile

https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/profile

[steady bramble]

ok thanks

[split vapor]

Also #sherpa-info

It’s in there also

[dense ibex]

how much can i sell my mcase for?

[split vapor]

What’s the price on flea

[dense ibex]

nvm i found out

[daring sage]

can anyone help me learn the game?

[gilded ridge]

@daring sage try talking to a sherpa

[turbid geyser]

Bought the game and its not on my profile.

im confused.

[royal cedar]

give it time took a few min when i bought mine

[turbid geyser]

Okay.

Ill check back in 15 mins

[forest steppe]

how to put a 2x to 4x optic on an adar 2-15?

[split vapor]

Like what

[forest steppe]

primary arms compact prism or trjicon acog 4x32 Tan

[split vapor]

Which prism the 2x. Or the 2.5x

The 2x doesn’t need anything to go on

[forest steppe]

2.5x

[split vapor]

The other two need this.

One sec

[forest steppe]

trying to find a cheap alternative to a 1x that doesnt break the bank

[split vapor]

You the TA51 sight mount for those

Also if you didn’t get a mk12 low profile gas block so you can see

[undone wadi]

anyone wanna group up im new lmao

[copper wolf]

aye esketit young lad

my cheeks are nice and clenched to play some tarky boi

[forest steppe]

i was able to see with the 1x and the standard gas blck

[royal cedar]

@undone wadi #pvp-lfg and go accept #521628660298678283 and #news-setup

[forest steppe]

does the trijicon acog 3.5 need that mount also?

[split vapor]

Yeah

[forest steppe]

dang

meh, its only 3k more roubles for the 2x than the mount plus the other sights

not that much

thx for the help!

[split vapor]

Np

Plus on the acog you can always add an iron or red dot on top

[royal cedar]

sights like that are great

[forest steppe]

oh? i was wondering about that

[royal cedar]

you can put a red dot on some of the acog sights. as long as it has a rail on top

isnt there canted sights also ?

[forest steppe]

none of the ones i was eyeballing you can put sights on top of

[warm rover]

why does it say 0 for the mosin... I was sooo far away when I killed these scavs ...

[split vapor]

Too close

Trijicon ACOG backup rear sight
Trijicon RMR mount for ACOG scopes
Those two can go on @forest steppe

[forest steppe]

thx

[warm rover]

should I remove the frontsight for thisquest or ?

[split vapor]

that literally makes you less accurate

[steady pilot]

You can use the compact mount for acog and prism

That's 1/3 the cost

[forest steppe]

oh yea, that would have been good

its 4x less, the ta51 was 5k

these are about 1k

[split vapor]

Ryan bad

[forest steppe]

oh you mean for the extra 1x or the enhanced optics

[steady pilot]

The prism, 3.5x acog, and 4x acog

All fit on compact mount

[forest steppe]

good to know, th anks!

[steady pilot]

The 3.5x and4x acog can take RMR sight

[safe viper]

how do I get therapist to buy stuff... She doesnt seem to respond

[steady pilot]

The 4x acog can use a cheap iron sight mount

She only buys trade items and medical stuff

[forest steppe]

yea the other one you recommended

[steady pilot]

No

[safe viper]

that is what I am trying to sell and buy from her @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

Literally a small iron sight on top of acog

Not the carryhandle mounting

[obsidian pewter]

how do I gain access to the voice channels?
I liked the post in #521628660298678283

[forest steppe]

ok let me understand

to put a 2x or greater on an adar, i can use the Ta51 or the compact mount right?

and then an additional short scope needs what?

[steady pilot]

What no?

For 2.5x prism, 3.5x Acog, and 4x acog ONLY

[forest steppe]

the compact mount worked with the 3.5x35

[steady pilot]

You can use a ta51 or compact mount or carry handle

To put on gun

[forest steppe]

ok yea got it

compact mount is cheapest between those three

[steady pilot]

On the ACOG you can put an ironsigght for the 4x

[forest steppe]

ok yes, the
Trijicon ACOG backup rear sight
Trijicon RMR mount for ACOG scopes

[steady pilot]

And and rmr reflex on 3.5x and 4x

[meager girder]

can someone pls tell me the best budget nightvision i can use for nighttime runs?

[vernal anchor]

pnv probably

like 30k

[spiral stirrup]

Should I worry about upgrading my hideout or just keep doing raids lol, I'mm only level 3 and still ahve my starting 300k ROubles or whatever

[modern steppe]

boys boys

[forest steppe]

some poor dude just sold T7s for 195 000

he forgot a 0 i think

[modern steppe]

is it profitable to run stashes outside of interchange

[vernal anchor]

Its an alright strat but not unique

Relatively low chance of engagements for ok loot

[icy summit]

Coward.

[vernal anchor]

bruh

[icy summit]

❤️

[split vapor]

Mako bad

[steady pilot]

[modern steppe]

huh

[steady pilot]

Everyone knows shoot bad

[split vapor]

Okay accuracy by volume

[vernal anchor]

Im nuts

[icy summit]

We die like real men

[split vapor]

What are you an almond mako

[steady pilot]

Atleast I get kills

[split vapor]

Uh huh kiddo

[steady pilot]

Kiddo

[split vapor]

After 20 rounds

[icy summit]

But, one thing

[steady pilot]

You're like 7 years younger

[icy summit]

ASH is great

[steady pilot]

K I d d o

[vernal anchor]

Because I have poison in me :)

ASh-12 best fucking gun

[icy summit]

^^^^^

And ammo is pretty cheap as well, somehow.

[vernal anchor]

102 flesh 46 pen

chad

[steady pilot]

Trash

[split vapor]

Ryan mad cause he can’t do this https://streamable.com/cr7l0

[vernal anchor]

Better than M80

You love to see it

[steady pilot]

Bruh

[forest steppe]

which aammo?

[vernal anchor]

PS12B

[steady pilot]

I saved aqua and french toast while wearing untar armor and shitty m4 against a 3 man

And they cowered behind trees

Quote from one if them "dude I'm literally shaking right now"

Lmfao

To be fair we all potatoed when the 3 man was in a circle trading items

[onyx imp]

what mount do i need to use an RK-2

on a 74m

[steady pilot]

A rail.

Picatinny rail

[mossy geode]

I disconnected from a raid because I got that dumb inventory bug, and it's saying I can't reconnect. There's no way I died because I killed all of the raiders that pushed me on labs, and I killed all of the other players on the server. Anyone got a fix?

[onyx imp]

thanks

[sacred barn]

Anyone want to help me get started? almost out of guns lol.

[young current]

is this game a hard game to run?

[tardy wagon]

huh so i finished a match on factory and i did remeber placing a keycard i found in my inventory but it disapeared?

[onyx imp]

picatinny doesnt work @steady pilot

[steady pilot]

No I mean your handguard needs to have a picatinny rail to attach

Sigh

[onyx imp]

yeah i tried applying the picatinny

[steady pilot]

What handguard do you have

[idle bluff]

@steady pilot oi

[steady pilot]

@idle bluff ecks dee

[idle bluff]

I wasn’t cowering, I was moving through the trees and bushes slowly but you know

[steady pilot]

Okay it wasnt you

It was aqua

I remember now

[idle bluff]

My path took me between SVD and M4/MDR/ whenever else the third one was

[onyx imp]

not sure, i can send you a picture of my gun

[idle bluff]

So I was going slow as hell

[steady pilot]

You was going slow as hell and I was just like

[onyx imp]

6P20 Sb.9 @steady pilot

[idle bluff]

To be fair

All three of them sucked

[idle bluff]

That guy with the SR-25 who flanked you’re

You

[steady pilot]

Lmfao I know

It's still funny

[idle bluff]

Then the P90 boi who sprayed down Aqua and MISSED

Wtf

[blazing cape]

heyo, anyone want to party up with a beginner lame-ass like myself

[idle bluff]

Discord stop being high please

I’d help but I’m not home atm

[primal kernel]

Anyone know how to refill fuel tanks?

[steady pilot]

Get a better phome

[idle bluff]

@primal kernel You dont. Buy new ones

[steady pilot]

@primal kernel you cant

[primal kernel]

😢

This is really bad for environment.

[half bison]

Most of my skills are at level 3-5, but strength is still at a solid 0, how do i even get this skill up

[split vapor]

Frenk finish that gif bb

[onyx imp]

still need some help on how to apply an RK-2

[primal kernel]

Anyone have some good budget gun presets ? Maybe a cheatsheet

[vernal anchor]

@onyx imp What handguard are you using?

[onyx imp]

6p20 sb.9

[bleak lance]

If you die by scavs in offline mode trying to learn maps, do you lose what gear you had with you in that online raid?

[vernal anchor]

That handguard cant have rails on it so you cant mount a foregrip on it

[bleak lance]

*offline raid not onlin

[onyx imp]

i've mounted a grip on it before though

a UVG i think it was

[vernal anchor]

Thats not possible

You used a different handguard

[onyx imp]

can i take it off?

[timber dock]

@bleak lance nope, you come out the same way you went in. Nothing lost, nothing gained.

[onyx imp]

i believe i used a mount

with the uvg

[bleak lance]

@timber dock thanks dude. i knew you didnt get what you looted but i didnt know if you lost it if you died

[vernal anchor]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/AK-74_Gas_tube#Handguard Look at this list for compatable handguards

Or linked search your gas tube and it will show you all the compatible ones, you will need one that either has a rail already on it or a slot for a rail

[onyx imp]

good sights for aks?

[tawdry storm]

how can I change scope zoom magnitude or type of scope while adsing, for now I have to un-ads every time I want to switch between holo/zoom magnitude?

[vocal finch]

I'm a level 5 and I got hold of a modded M4 and AKMN, 6A armor, fast mt tan helmet and blackrock rig, what's the best way of selling this? flea market or traders?

[gilded ridge]

alt+right click

wait no, i think its ctrl+right click @tawdry storm

@vocal finch disassemble the guns and sell them part by part, first to skier then mechanic, and the armor probably flea market

[dense cipher]

can somone help me extract ?

[gilded ridge]

what map?

@dense cipher

[vocal finch]

I've been doing that till now, but since I only unlocked the flea market the game I got this stuff I was wondering if that would be a better way of selling the items. Thanks for the info

[cosmic dagger]

Andbody wanna be my dou

[vernal anchor]

#pvp-lfg

[timber dock]

Factory's a bit rough when you're pitted against a team.

[ebon crater]

just bought the game, is it normal for both me and my friend to get "wrong email or password"?

I even reset the password and the new password doesnt work

and it wont let me reset more than once

[modern steppe]

its so annoying having to heal after dying

like burh

[ripe spear]

I'm assuming that with the servers being backed up, it might take a bit for your account to "register"

Because I couldn't even load my profile

[timber dock]

@modern steppe at least you can improve the passive healing speed with hideout upgrades.

[ripe spear]

@modern steppe just do a scav run, most of the time you should be almost fully healed by the time you get out

Get put alive that is

[modern steppe]

what maps should i farm on?

i have like 2 mil but i want more

[round ridge]

yo is the virtex programmable processor worth anything ?

[onyx imp]

i put a PIX on my AK but it's really far out on the gun

near the barrel, why?

[vernal anchor]

Because you aren't attaching it on the dust cover

[onyx imp]

that's the only place i can apply it

[vernal anchor]

You need a dust cover that has a rail on it

[onyx imp]

thanks

[torn widget]

If i stay tabbed in the game does it load faster lol

[steady pilot]

No...

Less prone to crashing though.

[bold kernel]

Whats a solid weapon?

for a beginer

[steady pilot]

Veprkm. Veprhunter. Mosin

Sv98

[bold kernel]

Should I run the vepr km just as is?

[surreal karma]

What are empty fuel containers for? Can they be refilled?

[grizzled heart]

Anybody know a good budget scope for the TX-15

Semi long and close range

[split vapor]

Vudu

[grizzled heart]

and do I need a mount?

[split vapor]

Some 4 dollar mount called 30mm ring scope mount

[grizzled heart]

ammo?

[split vapor]

@surreal karma you don’t refill them

855a1 or 856a1

[grizzled heart]

Whats a soild amour rig

to protect me

Under 60k

or just about

[steady pilot]

@bold kernel

[amber saffron]

so I’m gonna do couple of run through quests with a pistol in case i die, what’s the best pistol to use for beginners, and what ammo would you recommend i use with it?

[steady pilot]

Veprkm

Ps ammo

[wintry condor]

have had the game a week still cant complete the pocket watch quest might just give up haha

[lilac belfry]

The best pistol is the one you can get decent ammo for my man

[amber saffron]

@wintry condor need help?

[steady pilot]

Dont give up learn from your mistake and keep going. There are plenty of tools to help you

This is just a knowledge game

Past the learning curve this game is easy

[lilac belfry]

@amber saffron if you have a TT that is always good start, good stopping power, just need to make your shots count

[wintry condor]

its the bane of my existence that choke point that leads you onto the main road

[grizzled heart]

Best amour under 60k

?

[lilac belfry]

Kirasa

[amber saffron]

@lilac belfry thanks

[lilac belfry]

@wintry condor if you need help I can go with you bud

[grizzled heart]

Shouldn't be tier 4?

[lilac belfry]

Under 60k

[wintry condor]

i've burnt out trying this morning but will try again in a little bit

[lilac belfry]

Kirasa isn't bad and it keeps your movement and turn speed high

Tier 4 you'll find on other people :3

[grizzled heart]

Anything a little more expsenive?

I wanna buy a tac rig amour set

[lilac belfry]

Floral Class 4 armor is awlays my favorite

good for camo

[amber saffron]

@wintry condor what’s the problem you’re facing?

[lilac belfry]

Tactecs are good, just expensive to repair

[steady pilot]

But worth.

[lilac belfry]

AVS, MK1 are my favorite

[steady pilot]

They are 110-120k

[lilac belfry]

2x2 squares for helmets

Blackrocks too just not armored

[steady pilot]

And still is better than lvl 5 armor for 200k

Plus a rig

[lilac belfry]

But yeah Im doing a fast raid, if someone needs help lemme know. I applied for the Sherpa progam ages ago and never heard back

turns out I need to be active here too lol

[amber saffron]

I’d kinda need help with farming part 1

factory is super hectic and i never survive

[lilac belfry]

that is because factory is a bad place but yeah

what else do you need to do

[amber saffron]

that’s mainly what i need help with

other than that i’ve got operation aquarius and stuff

[lilac belfry]

I can help you with that

[amber saffron]

but i can do that by myself

i’d appreciate it

[lilac belfry]

the trick is- hide in a factory exit key spot

or other sneaky place

i can show you the best places to be sneaki boi

[amber saffron]

nice

[stark mural]

LF teacher to learn the basics im level 8

[noble fog]

is it alright to use l191 over sb193?

[lilac belfry]

It's fine to use any bullet bud

[noble fog]

is that 5 extra pen really that important

[lilac belfry]

just depends on who you're shooting at

[noble fog]

ya true

[lilac belfry]

it can make the difference between classes of armor

or face shield

but remember, the ANGLE you hit it at also matters

[noble fog]

im gonna load the top 10 rounds in the mag as sb

incase someone shows up in a gen 4 or something

[lilac belfry]

I also load high pen rounds in the top of my mag

[west parcel]

anyone help me?

i need a group

new af

[amber saffron]

go offline and learn the maps

[lilac belfry]

Fidel, definitely do a couple scav runs and get to the maps just a little bit that's always a good start group or solo

[onyx imp]

M995's the best ammo for 5.56 right

[lilac belfry]

It's the overall best ammo on average but

some 5.56 is better at certain things

[west parcel]

does anyone wana be my start group?

[lilac belfry]

995 is excellent but 4 warmage shells to one limb and you're Dead

[warm terrace]

@west parcel you can check in #pvp-lfg

[tardy canyon]

gsed

[wintry condor]

@amber saffron I can get the pocket watch fine from the tanker but i can never extract. if i dont go for the watch i never have a problem extracting haha

[amber saffron]

what’s the problem tho

[turbid geyser]

Wheres the location for the config folder? im tryna change the sensitivity to exactly what i have for rust.

[amber saffron]

idk just do it in settings

[turbid geyser]

Thats the thing.

i cant change my sense to 0.648

[amber saffron]

change it to 0.65

it won’t make that much of a difference lul

you’ll get adjusted to it

plus your turning speed can always vary

[onyx imp]

any youtube guides on how to convert an adar to an m4?

[amber saffron]

google it

[lilac belfry]

The problem, @turbid geyser is that it's not just your settings. The armor and bkacpacks and rigs can affect your movement speed

even the size of guns/ergo in my opnion

[split vapor]

Get an m4 lower

[turbid geyser]

what?

So the game sensitivity is never consistent?

[young hill]

hello, wanted to know how to escape, is the list of locations you get at the top right when u spawn in, are those the only locations u can go to, inorder to leave?

[lilac belfry]

The reason why Berkuts are better backpacks than Scav backpacks is because the scav backpack inhibits your movement and turning speed

Correct

[amber saffron]

yes @young hill

[turbid geyser]

pretty realistic.

[lilac belfry]

Pick up a different piece of armor/rig/backpack, even a different gun and your sensitivity will be different

Yes...welcome to Tarkov :3

@young hill sometimes those EXFILs aren't actually available

some are possibilities

There are guaranteed exfils always

[onyx imp]

NT-4 blk doesn't work on adar?

[lilac belfry]

You need the KAC muzzle attachement

[onyx imp]

KAC QD compensator?

[amber saffron]

what are the guaranteed ones on customs?

[lilac belfry]

KAC suppressor > KAC comp > AR barrel

Crossroads/Trailer park on west side of map

Z-11 on East side of map

[amber saffron]

ah

thanks

isn’t dorms always active as well? but you need 10k rubs

[lilac belfry]

7k

it's there until it isn't

[amber saffron]

ah

[onyx imp]

what's more worth? -10 recoil or a suppressor?

[lilac belfry]

Depends

[pliant moon]

Trying to turn in 4* body armor for a quest with skier (his first quest). I have 4 body armors, 1* PACA, 2* MF-UN. It wo't allow me to turn them in, the "Turn in" button isn't even visible. The PACA is 50/50

[amber saffron]

depends on the gun and what it’s recoil is @onyx imp

[onyx imp]

adar

[amber saffron]

show your current mods

i’d go for -10 honestly

[lilac belfry]

If you are trying to murder people and get away with it, suppresor

[spark marsh]

northbandit

u need 3m body amr for that task

@pliant moon

[lilac belfry]

If you are going to be running in and getting out fast and have squad friends, maybe go loud

[pliant moon]

3m? is that a brand @spark marsh

[onyx imp]

i'm going solo customs

probably dorms

[lilac belfry]

3M is the white armor

[spark marsh]

yes

its a white soft amr

find on scavs or buy from flea market

there are 2 spawns on factory for them, but its quite minkus

[lilac belfry]

If you are looking for 3M armor, scav into factory and wait until the last 5 min

[pliant moon]

"Module-3M bodyarmor"??

[spark marsh]

yes

[lilac belfry]

We are all done with that quest so they are easy to find

[pliant moon]

ty

[spark marsh]

npnp

[pliant moon]

damn selling for 40k

[amber saffron]

i just bought it

[lilac belfry]

You have to find them

[spark marsh]

yea, because its a task

[lilac belfry]

in raid I think unless they changed it

[spark marsh]

its not in raid

[lilac belfry]

Oh good

[amber saffron]

ye don’t have to find them in raid anymore

i bought them lul

[pliant moon]

doesn't say find in raid, liek the healthpack one

[lilac belfry]

they used to be ;3

[pliant moon]

rgr

[amber saffron]

fuck staying in factory for the last 5mins

[pliant moon]

thx for help @spark marsh

[spark marsh]

u can just buy them, buy ones with very low durablity, that way its cheaper

[lilac belfry]

Factory is EZ if you hide and let the big boys kill each other

[spark marsh]

He does

[still wasp]

PEEP YO SHIT IN THE FLEA MARKET

[lilac belfry]

I do

too...

[amber saffron]

ye servers are kinda dying rn @onyx imp with all the new players

[onyx imp]

yeah i lost 100k from a flea market sale bcs of it

[still wasp]

If you're level 7 and you got camped by a fatboi with full gear at interchange extract it was definitely me.

[lilac belfry]

Let me guess

Suppressed SVDS with thermal scope and 7N1

oh wait that's me

[still wasp]

SA-58 with flir

[lilac belfry]

y i k e s

[pliant moon]

When it says "find" , does it count if i find the item while doing a scav run?

[still wasp]

Yes

[pliant moon]

tight

[spark marsh]

the only thing you need to watch for is "in raid"

[still wasp]

Curiously, so do items crafted in the hideout

they're considered "found in raid"

[spark marsh]

they count as in raid

[bold kernel]

ye

[still wasp]

yeah

[amber saffron]

exfil camping

[bold kernel]

do that for the salewa kits

or w/e

[spark marsh]

bad habit is a good quest for craft in raid

[onyx imp]

@amber saffron weapon modding

[still wasp]

Modded weapons are for noobs

I only use stockless VEPR AK

[lilac belfry]

amateur

use bayonet

[still wasp]

WAT

HOW DO I FIND A BAYONET

[amber saffron]

that’s your default melee

[still wasp]

Mine is a big hatchet

[amber saffron]

oh

maybe you have eod

[lilac belfry]

My PMC"s ugly mug is my first weapon

[still wasp]

I bought an icepick

those ice-blue eyes and bald head staring out of the bushes

[lilac belfry]

i thought i needed a toothpick

[plucky reef]

if i insure my weapon drop it and extract do i get it on insurance?

[spark marsh]

assuming no one takes it

[celest olive]

Level 5 takes so long to get

[spark marsh]

do the quests, best way to lvl up

[amber saffron]

^

lvl 5 is nothing

[spark marsh]

it really doesnt take long, a few raid where you survive

[celest olive]

Ive been trying but I keep dying lol

[amber saffron]

it’s like 15mins of work

[spark marsh]

try to walk the outside of a map, and pick off ez scavs, dont get greedy and just leave

[pliant moon]

got my quest reward in the mail but it only contained the money. Didn't get the listed items i was supposed to get

no attachments in messenger

[spark marsh]

some of the items are just for sale now

[celest olive]

I get super greedy and aggressive and get punished but the thrill of a gunfight is too much for me to resist

[pliant moon]

ohh understood

[hidden prawn]

its something you learn to overcome overtime

managing to beat gear fear is hard

[spark marsh]

just make sure when you kill someone, the body is clear before you loot

go prone and take the body that way

[amber saffron]

@hidden prawn the way i overcame it is becoming rich

[spark marsh]

or catch out other players also trying to looot

[amber saffron]

once i got money, idc if i lose this once or twice

[hidden prawn]

@amber saffron can tell youre a mordhau player

[amber saffron]

i’ll remake it

[hardy moat]

also when you kill a pmc it's very likely there is a second one

[hidden prawn]

played for 1k hours and i can smell it now

[amber saffron]

lmao

i didn’t really play that much

[pliant moon]

buddy bought me the game like 28 hours ago, think ive got like 18h played lo

llvl 6 with 1.7mill

loving this shit

[amber saffron]

what the duck

what the fuck

how

[spark marsh]

money isnt hard to come by

even more so with twitch drops

[amber saffron]

for me it is

[pliant moon]

selling stuff like attachments/keys/other stuff on flea market

[amber saffron]

it took me 3 weeks to make 1.5mil

[pliant moon]

only doing pistol runs

and scav runs whenever available

i dont spend shit

Going to be doing vepr runs though I think now

[hidden prawn]

took me 2 days to make 2.5 mil

[pliant moon]

graduate from pistol

[spark marsh]

doing just scavs and removing the gear, without doing anything else, will give u a mill over time ez

[hidden prawn]

i abused the flea market like crazy

[amber saffron]

@hidden prawn how

[pliant moon]

well dude, tbf ive been playing gnon stop

[hidden prawn]

basic economics

[amber saffron]

i’m level 15 and have like 200k

but all the traders except mechanic lvl 2

[spark marsh]

i mean, invest in good items,

[pliant moon]

sell fucking everything, only do pistol runs, check flea market on expensive goods.

[amber saffron]

big tip: ragman lvl 2 is huge

[pliant moon]

SCAV runs make me money

[spark marsh]

money = gear, good gear +good plays = more loot

[pliant moon]

lol spawned with a lab access card as a scav, ez 75k

probs get 100k for whole kit

without looting a thing

[fallen crane]

75k wut?

[hidden prawn]

LOL 76

[pliant moon]

ruples

[spark marsh]

why only 75...

[hidden prawn]

75

RIP

[spark marsh]

dude those sell for 100k ez

[pliant moon]

oh nice

[hidden prawn]

or 150

200k on a good day

[fallen crane]

wait week and its 200k

200k w/out twitch drops

[pliant moon]

like how can you only have 200k total thats nuts, literally just spawned in a 200k kit as a scav lo

[plucky reef]

sold all my lab keys for 170k

[bold kernel]

Got a factory key rn from my scav run

what map should i start on

[amber saffron]

customs

[still cave]

ok

[ornate karma]

Is there a guide for stuff I should be selling?

I'm kind of out of space

[sick reef]

whatever sells for good money xd

[radiant elk]

Upgrade hideout then sell anything you don't use/plan on using

[steady pilot]

@ornate karma cant really make a guide cause prices are dynamic

Just have to learn what traders buy for and what market demand pays for

[finite temple]

I need help : /

[steady pilot]

Like 911 help?

[timber dock]

Or like "I need an adult"?

[finite temple]

am running around naked with no gear cuz ive died so many time ive lost everthing

[timber dock]

Scav runs.

[steady pilot]

Have you watched any beginner guides?

Look up pestily and deadlyslob

They have good information

Otherwise best way to learn is experience and going over possible mistakes and preventing them next time

Everyone dies and dies a lot

[finite temple]

is there a chat where wpople can play together

[steady pilot]

#pvp-lfg

If you accept #521628660298678283 and #news-setup you unlock disocrd.

[finite temple]

am lvl 4 and everytime i ask for a invite everyone says no

i don't see #looking-for-group

[stark moat]

I thought I saw someone say Interchange was a mess, what with all the geared up guys going after Killa and the new quests there. Is that the case?

[steady pilot]

Yes

[stark moat]

dang

[steady pilot]

Just avoid center mall

Like it should be before quest

[stark moat]

I used to go there on night raids for leisurely strolls and fill my pockets lol

[steady pilot]

Once upon a time I learned there too

[stark moat]

Noticed I started getting rekt all of a sudden

[steady pilot]

That was liken8 wipes ago

[stoic raven]

boys i fucked up

[steady pilot]

This game gained a crap ton of traction

[stark moat]

Yea, I just posted a meme about it a couple hours ago lol

[timber dock]

I just got myself a lucky scav junkbox and I'm finally free from the oppression that is a full inventory.

(for now)

[undone brook]

why does my gun keep not shooting?

[steady pilot]

@undone brook what gun

Did you fill the mags.

[undone brook]

@steady pilot any guns, it just happens in the middle of a fire fight. I wait a few secs and its back to normal but its pretty annoying

[steady pilot]

I've never had this issue so guess it can only be server lag 🤷

[undone brook]

maybe

[lime surge]

i dont know if its still a think but a while back if you loaded different rounds into the same mag it would do that

[muted bison]

So, I decided to do a "big boi" setup for my first time. I was running tier 5 armor and helmet with a decked out HK, I spawn into customs and quickly loot dorms and run out towards one of the exits.

When I was in the woods, I literlaly got two tapped, the last bullet hitting me in the legs. It was a rifle of some sort but I'm not sure what because the shots were in quick succession.

[velvet niche]

Purchased pre order, cannot for the life of me find any sort of link to download. No idea where the "closed" part of the forum is either.

[steady pilot]

.366 and 762x39 only different rounds that fit in 7x39 mags

[muted bison]

What's the point of buying this high end armor if people can just two tap you anyways?

[inner tinsel]

Only issue I had like that was when I would try to fire a gun and I would stutter for like 2 full seconds, cost me a very good run. Immediately changed the dpi settings in properties and the game rarely does that ever now

[remote gulch]

@timber dock howd you get that junkbox?

[steady pilot]

@muted bison because armor doesnt make you a tank and this late in the wipe people buy armor penetration rounds

[timber dock]

@remote gulch Therapist level 2 and a bunch of rubles

[steady pilot]

Armor is basically just scav protection

[remote gulch]

sweet thanks

[steady pilot]

Not player proof

[muted bison]

@steady pilot so then there really isn't a reason to go past tier 3?

[steady pilot]

No tier 4 and 5 are highly reco

Recommend

Because people are dumb

And also scavs

You just need to learn to avoid being seen and shot first

You're making a mistake somewhere and need to double check what you are doing

[muted bison]

Copy that. Thanks for the info.

[steady pilot]

Btw

[placid stream]

what mount do i need to put an assault scope on an SKS?

[steady pilot]

There are two sks guns

[placid stream]

i have the one from mechanic

but i can mod it if necessary

i assume i'm missing a mount

i want to put an elcan on it

[steady pilot]

Mechanic diesnt sell sks

He sells a stock mod

There is an sks. And an op-sks

[placid stream]

oh i see

[steady pilot]

The OP-sks is only one that can attach a dovetail mount

[placid stream]

oh okay so i can't put anything other than a reflex on this one

[steady pilot]

Secondly, scrap the rifle for a verpkm or ak103 for a cheaper and better platform

[placid stream]

lol okay

[steady pilot]

Veprkm goes forn9-13k and is basically a better sks. Ak103 cost same as op sks around 25-30k

Easier to mod

[placid stream]

okay thanks for the advice 🙂

[steady pilot]

If you want a scope, you get a bastion dustcover

[placid stream]

okay

but am i right that actually

what i want to do in this instance is just run m80?

and run like a vepr hunter or an m1a?

[steady pilot]

Yes

[placid stream]

(if i can afford)

[steady pilot]

That's optimal

[placid stream]

okay

[lilac belfry]

M1A with the rail top cover

[steady pilot]

I am offering budget

[lilac belfry]

with a PK06

[placid stream]

what is that?

[steady pilot]

M1a

And vudu

[placid stream]

oh i see

[lilac belfry]

Vudu expensivo though

[steady pilot]

40k

For a good ass scope

[placid stream]

can you put a front grip on it to reduce recoil?

[lilac belfry]

not the base M1A

[steady pilot]

Doesnt matter fir semi auto

Youbdont need the best recoil

[lilac belfry]

it still works very well with semi auto. throw on the longer barrel for better recoil reduction

[steady pilot]

M80 one taps chest

[lilac belfry]

M80 one taps class 4 and below

[amber saffron]

yeah the m80 is fire

[steady pilot]

Just aim head or chest. You barely need 1 or 2 rounds

[lilac belfry]

class 5 will eat 4-5 of those

[placid stream]

i heard m80 got a small nerf so it no longer one taps chest at armour 4

[steady pilot]

Everyone has the mentality that recoil is everything

[amber saffron]

you can kill high gear players with a vepr hunter and m80

[steady pilot]

Just play smarter

Good gun. Good scope. Good round. All you need

The rest are conveniences

[lilac belfry]

you can kill high gear players with a PM pistol and PMM round :3

[steady pilot]

Not reliably

But yes

[lilac belfry]

the reason why recoil matters for single fire guns is....shot placement when it comes down

[icy summit]

KEDR

[lilac belfry]

if you've ever fired an M1A, M14, M1 garand IRL (me) it pivots horrifically

[icy summit]

KEEEEDR

[lilac belfry]

around the grip

theis game mimicks that very well

the lower recoil, the faster you can place your shots back and keep shooting

[lilac belfry]

if you want to be a professional single fire man, grab the fin iron sight for m1a on the short barrel

and try just using iron sights :3

[fickle kettle]

delta

SR-25

[lilac belfry]

it jumps SO MUCH EBTWEEN SHOTS

[fickle kettle]

tch tch

[steady pilot]

I know

[lilac belfry]

but it will make you a better marksman making each shot count

[steady pilot]

It's still a sexy gun

[icy summit]

All you need, buddy

[steady pilot]

But stats are ass

[icy summit]

Sight's are overrated

[fickle kettle]

now that is a sexy gun

[lilac belfry]

that cobra grip is very comfy IRL by the way

cheap too

[icy summit]

looks like it would be.

[torn widget]

Whats the best ammo for SR-1MP

Pistol

[icy summit]

Armor Piercing or Flesh?

[torn widget]

Uhm

idk

Whats good

[icy summit]

SP13 is the best for AP.

Sure

Versatile

Doesnt lag at all

for my vepr

[steady pilot]

Yeah its fine.

Only 30k. Not really any major negatives to it

[stable nova]

you can get it also cheaper

[steady pilot]

Probably

[stable nova]

[icy summit]

PK-06 ALL THE WAY

[steady pilot]

Ew meta

[icy summit]

Is it meta right now?

[steady pilot]

Always has been

Most used reflex in game

[icy summit]

also the chepest that fits on everything.

[steady pilot]

Smells like meta

[icy summit]

Maybe.

[steady pilot]

Burris👌

[icy summit]

NU

Walther / Weaver

Buris bad

[steady pilot]

The optic moves

In weaver and p1x42

They are the only reflexes that simulate head tilt and reticle moves side to side and up and down as you move

[icy summit]

Burris is just too small!

[steady pilot]

Its just like pk06 but a dot instead

[icy summit]

PK-06 is slightly taller

[steady pilot]

Doesnt make a difference

[icy summit]

It makes to me, i allways feel like someone took top of my scope

THEY STOLE IT.

ey, how do you feel about RPK-16?

I fell in love.

[fickle kettle]

[icy summit]

A bit pricey, sadly, but other than that

[lilac belfry]

PK06 used to be 6.7k roubles a couple patches ago. There's a reason why it's locked in at 17k

It's the best :3

[lilac belfry]

Burris is trash IRL and in this game

the RMR should not have such a large red dot in this game it can be just as small as the PK06

[icy summit]

Yeah, it's way taller.

But i shouldn't speak, i use Holosun

[steady pilot]

Sight picture is the same though

[icy summit]

xD

[lilac belfry]

when we can change the intensity of the RMR god

I cannot wait

[lilac belfry]

ALso a good sight to shoot with

[icy summit]

With one is that?

[lilac belfry]

i just hatee triangles whicvh is why I own NCstar reflexes

[steady pilot]

Delta point

[icy summit]

huh, nice.

is there anything taller then the PK-06?

other then the full size sights.

[lilac belfry]

RMR with riser :3

[icy summit]

not what i mean

[lilac belfry]

The holosun

the aimpoint

[steady pilot]

Also mosntrum is best sight

Btw

[lilac belfry]

its aight

[steady pilot]

Its king af

The x2 zoom is great.
