[rich cloak]

Okay Erwin

[molten ermine]

Do I need to wear body armor if I have a armored rig on?

[trim herald]

[steady pilot]

You can't

[radiant holly]

M1a is just shitty garand

[steady pilot]

HEY

[rich cloak]

@molten ermine no you can't

[steady pilot]

They are different calibers

[trim herald]

M1A is amazing

[molten ermine]

Okay thank you

[steady pilot]

You cant say that

[trim herald]

But it doesn't go PING

[rich cloak]

@radiant holly excuse me?

[radiant holly]

If we're talking historically the M14 should of never existed

[brave sinew]

When we think we are at an extract, how to initiate ?

[steady pilot]

M14 is a murican staple

[radiant holly]

M14 is the worst American service rifle

[steady pilot]

Tommy gun too

[rich cloak]

@brave sinew just stand there

Tommy gun was like not good

[steady pilot]

Obviously

Diesnt make it not a staple

[radiant holly]

The Garand was revolutionary

[steady pilot]

I'll have you know m21 is bad ass af

[brave sinew]

@rich cloak dont think im at good point because nothing hppn

[steady pilot]

You m14 hater

[radiant holly]

The M14 was a mistake

[rich cloak]

Fat boy SKS

[steady pilot]

[rich cloak]

@radiant holly the grand was what the Russians did for multiple years so its hardly revolutionary

[radiant holly]

It was actually the French

[trim herald]

The Ruski's were mostly leaning on the Mosin

[steady pilot]

Ah the mosin

[dull cave]

je ne sais quoi russian

[steady pilot]

And for a brief period the svt

I want a svt

Hnnng

[dull cave]

hoiyaeeeee

[radiant holly]

The Russians had alot issues with the SVT 40 and 38

[brave sinew]

Only 4 spot that i can read are ok ?

[steady pilot]

Yes yes

Most old rifles

Had issues

[dull cave]

lmao

[steady pilot]

Except bolties

[wooden sky]

guys any advice on earning xp and money? im new, dont even know what shotguns im meant to be looking for on customs, I keep dying....

[dull cave]

read the quest champ

[prime valve]

i own a mosin IRL

[dull cave]

"mp-133"

[trim herald]

Are we just going to ignore the German small arms too?

[prime valve]

its still accurate at 300M with the iron sights originally on it

[steady pilot]

300m isnt far

Lol

[radiant holly]

Yeah really

[prime valve]

it is for a fucking bolt action iron sight gun

[radiant holly]

Not really

[steady pilot]

That's the misconception

Its not

[prime valve]

lol ok

fuckin idiot

[steady pilot]

[radiant holly]

I've seen people do 500

[prime valve]

u think u can hit a target accurate with iron sights farther than that go ahead

[radiant holly]

With an SKS

[prime valve]

cool story bro

[steady pilot]

It's not how well you can hit with the irons

It's how well the gun can

[prime valve]

uve evidently not seen how far 300m actually is

[steady pilot]

It has poor moa

Because of barrel quality

[radiant holly]

Most guns are more accurate then you are

[trim herald]

Mauser 98k's were designed to be used up to 500m with irons

[dull cave]

cept an obrez

an obrez will hit what it wants

[trim herald]

And if not molested by bears will still be today

[steady pilot]

The mosin starts losing quite a bit of accuracy

After 400 or so

The poorly made ones

[dull cave]

how neccesary is over 300m tho

[supple terrace]

Can the Salewa kits be a little used when I hand them over to the Therapist for the quest?

[steady pilot]

The sniper variants are a bit better quality

[radiant holly]

Depends on the mosin

[dull cave]

your standard dumbass soviet with a stick isn't shooting that far, no?

[steady pilot]

Lmfao

[radiant holly]

Finnish mosins are where it's at

[steady pilot]

You can put scopes on the sniper variant

Im memeing btw

[faint sigil]

sooo atm im spamming customs mostly with my scavs, just got deleted after i got some juicy leftovers

shot another scav

and got swarmed

[steady pilot]

Yes if you are a scav and shoot scavs

You get tagged

[faint sigil]

yea yea, i wanna ask

[steady pilot]

And they will target you

[faint sigil]

if i shoot another player that is a scav

how do npcs react?

[steady pilot]

Also counts

[faint sigil]

ok

[steady pilot]

If you shoot first

But the coding is finicky

[faint sigil]

what about if he attacked some earlier?

yeah i guess you can never know for sure

[steady pilot]

Then he will be shot at

By scavs

[faint sigil]

got it

[glass moon]

Hey do masks and eyewear have any use?

[trim herald]

I like masks as your face is so white otherwise and stands out against any background

Eyewear make raindrops go away from your screen faster

[regal plover]

@glass moon Eyewear reduce the size and number of raindrops hitting your screen

[trim herald]

Also you look swag AF

[regal plover]

^

[split vapor]

they confuse the head outlines

makes it harder to see

[prisma stag]

but... rain hides your tears of being constantly shot, why do you need eyewear then? :(

[glass moon]

aha gotcha

[compact moth]

Are there any type of bullets that go through a brick wall?

[split vapor]

none do

[compact moth]

Gtk

I just got killed through a wall

[split vapor]

you cant shoot through brick, rock concrete, but everything else is fair game,

probably just some desync on you

[glass moon]

does armor material matter?

[split vapor]

or you got shot from the other possible 50 directions

[steady pilot]

For repair

Yes

[unique wolf]

More so for repairing and durability

[glass moon]

what things get repaired more easily?

[split vapor]

Kevlar

[steady pilot]

Tactec, 6b tan(killa armor)

[tardy wagon]

what type of fuel do i have to use on generators?

killa armor is the only one of that style that is kevlar

there is a better repairing armor

the others are steel or ceramic

[steady pilot]

Dont believe everything you see on reddit btw

🤷

[dull cave]

and also has the same effective durb as trooper

[verbal spruce]

anyone recommend a gun to run with a 4x scope? Like an AK 74m?

[dull cave]

what

like, you want to know what gun to use?

[steady pilot]

An ak74m with pso is solid

[dull cave]

based on the optic?

[unique wolf]

Which 4x?

[tardy wagon]

okay i have the metal fuel tank

how do i fill it with fuel?

[dull cave]

an ak74n or m with pso is probably cheapest

[steady pilot]

^

[verbal spruce]

like all the aks are quite similar right

[dull cave]

no

[split vapor]

uh

ish

[rich cloak]

Can someone check the price for a full arm a 18 rig?

[dull cave]

some dont have dovetail mounts

which is what you need for the cheap pso

[split vapor]

ak74/n/m

[steady pilot]

These were my AKs after my very first raid. :D

[split vapor]

each has better stats

[dull cave]

ak74 stock doesnt have dove afaik

[steady pilot]

That ak74

👌

[rich cloak]

@tardy wagon you can't refill it you have to have it full or sell it

[dull cave]

no gp25 reee

[steady pilot]

IT WAS DAY 1

FIRST RAID

[rich cloak]

Pls

[verbal spruce]

i tried an akm the recoil was really bad, the ak which takes the 5.45 ammo felt much better

[tardy wagon]

so i have to buy it when its full?

[rich cloak]

Yes

Or find it

[dull cave]

pbs-1 is cuer 2

@verbal spruce akms mod super well

akm's

super easy and cheap to mod

to massively improve bounce. But 545 ak's do fire smoother

[rich cloak]

Someone please check Arma a18 rig price for me

@steady pilot feels siege man

[steady pilot]

I'm lost

[compact moth]

PEOPLE

COUNT

[dull cave]

@compact moth restart

try again

[waxen forge]

I'm cornfused

[rich cloak]

That would be all pmcs of one raid

[dull cave]

12 people?

[verbal spruce]

what if i double scope setup with my ak-74M? good idea?

[dull cave]

in one group?

thats fuckin dope

@verbal spruce like, 4x and 1x?

[verbal spruce]

yes

[dull cave]

if so, thats pretty cheap

[waxen forge]

Like a 12 man?

[compact moth]

They were throwing nades everywhere

[steady pilot]

Just get an elcan

[dull cave]

you need a pso scope

[waxen forge]

5 man is hard enough

[rich cloak]

I mean it can work but you would have to be one of them

[cosmic root]

<--- N00b coming over form pubg

[dull cave]

@verbal spruce you need a new front grip that allows a sight on top

[steady pilot]

Get an elcan scope

[dull cave]

after that, put an r45 and pk-06 on it

[steady pilot]

1x 4x and iron

Cheap too

[dull cave]

should cost in total around 45k

for scopes and new grip

[steady pilot]

laughs in 30k budget dmr

[compact moth]

And i noticed that alot of people i met spammed the lean animation. Is that a signal for something?

[dull cave]

yes

it translates to "friend"

Oh fck

The friendly wiggle

[steady pilot]

Means no shoot

[languid flare]

From Arma 😄

[steady pilot]

But shoot, shoot

[waxen forge]

No bully

[verbal spruce]

scavs

[dull cave]

lmao

[compact moth]

Should i still shoot when they do that?

[dull cave]

depends

[steady pilot]

I mean

[dull cave]

its up to you

[languid flare]

If you dont wanna risk being betrayed, yes

[dull cave]

if you are a player scav, and hes a playerscav, dont

[languid flare]

If you want to trust, no

[steady pilot]

Its either kill or be killed

[dull cave]

but as a player, i mean shoot if you want

[steady pilot]

I trust no one

[languid flare]

Trust whoever/how many you want.

But its a gamble

[steady pilot]

Someone does the wiggle and this is me.

[compact moth]

When i play scav i should not try to shoot other scavs right?

[lusty plank]

So if you have a lab pass, does your entire party go with that one pass, or does everyone have to have one?

[languid flare]

'Head out'

@compact moth yes

[rich cloak]

@lusty plank everyone

[compact moth]

How can i tell who is a scav and who a player?

[lusty plank]

Their movement.

[rich cloak]

@compact moth behavior and pscavs look different now

[trim herald]

@thin sandal Sell to therapist

[steady pilot]

[royal wind]

You'll be able to tell the difference by how they move eventually.

[rich cloak]

@steady pilot??

[thin sandal]

@trim herald Thanks!

[compact moth]

I got the feeling even after 1 month i dont even know 1% of the game

[royal wind]

If they're sprinting around and crouching for no reason, chances are they're a player.

[trim herald]

@wintry cliff workbench 1, then probably lavatory 2/workbench 2. Intel center 2 is really nice too

[steady pilot]

[rich cloak]

If they sprint without someone shooting at them they are players

[compact moth]

Yeah i will be able to tell if i play more

[languid flare]

AI Scavs also do fairly lot of emotes around you

Tho thats no guarantee

[royal wind]

Yeah, if you come up to one they either wave or flip you off generally.

[compact moth]

U mean the talking?

I noticed that

[languid flare]

Talking and moves

[rich cloak]

When they see you they flip you off

[royal wind]

Talking too. Player scavs dont talk unless they manually press a button. Which most people dont do.

[trim herald]

If they flip you off you need to kill them

[lusty plank]

The age old question, what are the best camera settings?

[trim herald]

It's the rule of the land

[steady pilot]

I kill them firdt

[royal wind]

Buckshot to the face when they flip you off.

[steady pilot]

First

Then flip off

[languid flare]

I try not to kill Scavs, but Iam too jumpy still xD

[steady pilot]

[languid flare]

@compact moth Will you be around early morning?

[compact moth]

How early?

[languid flare]

Uhhh, anywhere from 4am to ~8am

[thin sandal]

What about the red rebel ice pick?

[compact moth]

Yeah

[trim herald]

Fleamarket @thin sandal

[thin sandal]

Listed for like 1,9M

[tired heart]

is 7.62x54mmR LPS Gzh better or
7.62x54mmR SNB

[thin sandal]

But will that sell?

[trim herald]

Yeah

[languid flare]

@compact moth Will probably ping you and ask if you wanna group around then then 😄

[trim herald]

Should do

[thin sandal]

Selling my drops 😄

Got lucky

[trim herald]

@tired heart LPS, 7N1 is better though

[tired heart]

which is better 7.62x54mmR 7N1 Sniper
7.62x54mmR LPS Gzh

[trim herald]

7N1 is best

[royal wind]

I'd keep the ice pick. @thin sandal

[tired heart]

but LPS has much more pen and only a bit less damage

[royal wind]

Most useful drop tbh.

[trim herald]

LPS doesn't have more pen than 7n1

[compact moth]

@languid flare Alright man i will be there. Glad u asked 😄

[rich cloak]

@tired heart snb is bad because it can't onetap people to the chest

[copper badge]

newish player (played a bit before reserves came out) looking for someone or some people to help me better learn the game

[tired heart]

lps dose have 10 more pen

[trim herald]

@royal wind Not when you're starting out I wouldn't say

[rich cloak]

@tired heart lps has less pen

[languid flare]

NP, need someone to group with, and someone from the same country seems suitable 😉

[trim herald]

LPS definitely has less Pen

[royal wind]

It's always useful. An easy extract for reserve? Super useful, even when starting out.

[trim herald]

And I'd never recommend reserve for a beginner

[steady pilot]

Scav reserve is fine

[trim herald]

1.9 mil when starting out is way better

[royal wind]

He's got plenty of other drops from the sound of it.

[steady pilot]

Offline pmc reserve to learn map and loot spawns and then learn to scav it

[trim herald]

Don't need RR pick when scavving

[tired heart]

7.62x54mmR 7N1 Sniper 45 86 64 875 0.083 0.285
7.62x54mmR LPS Gzh 55 84 59 865 0.18 0.39

no it has more

[rich cloak]

Reserve with the icepick isn't a hard map

[compact moth]

Isnt Customs a good map to start?

[trim herald]

Those are some OLD figures buddy

[royal wind]

Just saying, the pcik would be more useful to hang on to then to try and get your later.

[steady pilot]

@tired heartlmfao

!ammo

[tribal robin]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[steady pilot]

Look here

[tired heart]

ok

[steady pilot]

Whatever table you're looking at

At

Just don't

Anymore

[languid flare]

@compact moth Customs is the most common starting map, yes

[steady pilot]

Wiki is always correct

99%

[trim herald]

7n1 is more damage and more pen

Thus, better

[tired heart]

ok

[rich cloak]

Yeah the table you use is very wrong havoc

[steady pilot]

Oops

[tired heart]

ok

[languid flare]

From looking at that 7BT1 seems the best

[royal wind]

1 shot potential.

That's what makes 7n1 better.

[tired heart]

what about 7.62x54R 7BT1 ??

[agile sapphire]

i like cat

[trim herald]

Can't 1 tap chest

[tired heart]

ok

[royal wind]

7BT1 cant 1 shot to the chest. It's SO close to being the best, but not quite there.

[steady pilot]

Ok

You guys

Thorax is 80 hp.

[tired heart]

ok

[steady pilot]

A round needs to be 80dmg + to one shot chest

Fragmentation aside

[tired heart]

bruh whats the point of the 7N37

70 pen XD

[steady pilot]

45 pen is enough to 1 shot lvl 4, and then a 40% dice roll to one shot lvl 5

[tired heart]

they should add a one shot .50 bmg weapon

[steady pilot]

@tired heart literally a fucking meme for lvl 7 armor apparently

[tired heart]

is there even a level 7 armor

[steady pilot]

No

[tired heart]

ok

[steady pilot]

That's why I said meme

[fathom narwhal]

soon

[languid flare]

Soon you literally have tanks around

[steady pilot]

insert bomb squad suit

[languid flare]

AC of 20 👌

[prime ermine]

They probably will add that eventually

[tired heart]

7N37 7BT1 and SNB can all oneshot level 6?

[prime ermine]

A 50 cal and lv 7 armor

[steady pilot]

@tired heartnondude

[royal wind]

Sure, to the head.

[steady pilot]

You NEED 80 DMG

to one shot chest

[tired heart]

ik but theyc an pen the armor

first shot

[steady pilot]

And?

You need a follow up shot

[tired heart]

ok

[royal wind]

One shot, means it will KILL with one shot to the chest.

[tired heart]

ok

[steady pilot]

^

[royal wind]

Those rounds will not do that.

[steady pilot]

They guranteed a 2 bullet kill

[tired heart]

they can one shot level 6 helmet

[steady pilot]

If you are that accuracte

Yes of course

But nobody runs fucking lvl 6 armor

[tired heart]

oof

[rich cloak]

Laughs in killa

[steady pilot]

Those rounds are overrated

[royal wind]

Besides the killa visor.

[trim herald]

I can see a purpose for the new 7n39 in arenas

[steady pilot]

Penetration isnt everything

[trim herald]

That's what she said

[royal wind]

Thats not what your mom said!

[rich cloak]

7n37

[royal wind]

Heyooooo!

[rich cloak]

@trim herald

[tired heart]

whats the drop on them though

[trim herald]

Sure

[rich cloak]

@tired heartnot bad

[steady pilot]

I was gonna make a joke too but I held back

[rich cloak]

And they all drop basically the same

[tired heart]

ok

[royal wind]

lol, I dont have that kind of willpower.

[steady pilot]

||except with women||

Or guys

All good

You do you

[timber dock]

Whatever humps your camel.

[waxen forge]

I don't have a camel. I have a cat though. That good enough?

[supple terrace]

can the salewa kits be used when I hand them over for the therapist's quest?

[steady pilot]

That's

Yes @supple terrace

[supple terrace]

thanks man

[young drum]

if I press reload button, which mag will be loaded in, 28 round or 30 round?

[trim herald]

30

[young drum]

ty

[steady pilot]

@supple terrace it doesnt specify in raid to be found so you can "find" on the market

[trim herald]

I think he meant if they had to be 400/400

[supple terrace]

ah thanks xD I will try that then

[trim herald]

Which they don't

[steady pilot]

Just throwing it out there

So many people skipped the quest

Cause they can't read

[supple terrace]

y tho it's such an easy quest poor kappist

[upbeat tartan]

Extractions are fucking gay

I can never find one lmao

[supple terrace]

bruh

just look up the map on google

[steady pilot]

@upbeat tartanuuse the wiki map

[waxen forge]

Use a wiki map

[steady pilot]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Customs

[upbeat tartan]

Im on google but it makes no sense LOL

[steady pilot]

Go to offline mode and learn

It's not difficult

[supple terrace]

you have to watch for monuments you can confirm on the map

[waxen forge]

Think of it as back in he day before Google maps told us how to get places. When you had to explore

[supple terrace]

to know where you are

[waxen forge]

Some Lewis and Clark stuff

[upbeat tartan]

I thought i found military base CP but i guess i wasnt there lol

[supple terrace]

press o twice

[languid flare]

So, if Salewas can be used, I might just craft them and use em for quickhealing my PMC before handing them in

[supple terrace]

then you see what exfils you can use

[steady pilot]

@upbeat tartanjust. Pmc. Offline mode. Wiki map. Go.

[waxen forge]

I believe they do not have to be full to hand in for the task

[upbeat tartan]

Sam thats how you find that out?

i didnt know that LOL

[supple terrace]

yeah xD

[steady pilot]

[verbal spruce]

how the hell do people pre aim so quickly all the time. Im getting destroyed even when scoped first.

[drifting mica]

Nope, the selewas can be any durability

[steady pilot]

Does no one read the key binds

And controls

[drifting mica]

Probably not

[steady pilot]

Starting to think so

[drifting mica]

@verbal spruce It's called hipfire

[languid flare]

Reading is one thing

[steady pilot]

So many people jump in with zero research

[languid flare]

Remembering the binds and using them another

[steady pilot]

And expect things to happen

[languid flare]

Its learning process 😄

[tired heart]

@verbal spruce they hipfire

[steady pilot]

Like buying this game and then wanting a refund

After not reading the tos

[supple terrace]

Killa just jumpscared the living shit out of me

jesus

[fathom narwhal]

ayyy

[radiant holly]

Just realized I've been using 545 PRS and now know why I can't kill things with armor

[fair hatch]

Did he suddenly squat?

[supple terrace]

i saw him in my peripheral vision

then I knew it was over with no armor and a teeny tiny toz on me

[languid flare]

@steady pilot needs an added:
Seeing Killa

[supple terrace]

he's not that hard it's just you gotta be the first one to attack or else you're fooooked

more like seeing the fucking guards in reserve

[steady pilot]

Booped him in the back of the head with a sks and ps from 2nd floor

Hes ez clap

[supple terrace]

unless he sees you and you have no armor

[waxen forge]

2nd floor brain strat

[steady pilot]

You arent safe if 2nd floor

Nades come flying

[dull silo]

I thought you always had to get to the other side of the map to extract, I was just on customs and randomly walked into an extraction in the middle near apartments, was a weird feeling to accidently extract

[supple terrace]

Do y'all think god forgives even hatchetrunnners on interchange?

[waxen forge]

Killa has a hell of an arm

[steady pilot]

*ACCURATELY

[waxen forge]

Could play shortstop for the Yankees

[fair hatch]

The boat, Sheep?

[dull silo]

it was called old road gate

[fair hatch]

Or were you a Scav? Scav extracts are pretty random

Ah

[steady pilot]

He was a scav

[fair hatch]

PMC extracts are fixed based on spawn, Scav extracts are random

[supple terrace]

old road gate is in the middle of the map right? xD

[steady pilot]

Scavs has 2 exfils and they are random

Old road gate is PMC v-ex

[tired heart]

dude the Zastava M93 Black Arrow looks amazing

[whole hamlet]

need 4 for labs. i have all the keys

[waxen forge]

#pvp-lfg

[glass moon]

hey how often are wipes?

[bold kernel]

the game wipes

[waxen forge]

With big content updates

[bold kernel]

every major update

[waxen forge]

Not technically on a schedule

Last wipe was a couple months ago.

[glass moon]

so we expecting one soon?

[waxen forge]

Last wipe before that was 9 months

Rumor RUMOR rumor rumor is next wipe is March....but those dates often get delayed by a month or 2

[split vapor]

they said around march

so really like mid summer

[waxen forge]

labor day

[split vapor]

2022

[supple ridge]

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, but can armor be refilled or repaired? I found a level 3 body armor on a scav last night but it is 0/45. Do I just throw it away?

[normal hound]

I hope they wont wipe soon i got 3k worth of mosin

300k*

[split vapor]

Right click on it and hit repair

[glass moon]

so like, 10 mosins?

[supple ridge]

Oh ok, thanks

[split vapor]

it will give you options to which trader you want to reapir it with

prapor, ther, and mech

worst to best
prapor is the cheapest, mech is the most expensive but the best

[steady pilot]

(Only worth to do prapor tbh)

[normal hound]

No a guy in my group died and i grabed it for him and he said keep it

And he told me how much he put into it

[split vapor]

i like my trooper to last ryan so mech best

[steady pilot]

Trooper bad

Tactec good

[split vapor]

no but okay

[waxen forge]

I got a paca in a drop but i'm saving it for a special run

[steady pilot]

Imagine buying armor and a rig

[split vapor]

its called having a stock of stuff

also go to work

[steady pilot]

[normal hound]

Whats the easiest way to get the mp-133 other than buying it?

[waxen forge]

Find on scavs

[steady pilot]

Scavs

[supple ridge]

If you don't mind me asking, what makes Mech better to use for repair than Prapor?

[steady pilot]

That's it.

[normal hound]

Any specific map?

[supple ridge]

Does he repair to a higher level?

[steady pilot]

Because mech wants you to sell your left nut to repair stuff

Like the repair is literally more than what the item costs or rather near how much it costs

[compact moth]

How many headshots i need to give someone with a helmet to die with a pistol. I shot that guy 3times in the head he didnt die

[normal hound]

Story of my life

[steady pilot]

If you get armors like killa armor or tactec they only lose 1% with prapor

[waxen forge]

Let's say 4

Pistol not good

[compact moth]

Im doing pistol runs bc i dont wanna loose all my money in 2 days

[waxen forge]

Trick with pistol is you need to be able to throw a lot of rounds at someone to damage them. Single fire pistol will get job done with a face shot.

[supple ridge]

Oh.. so there's an overall durability? Like I can only repair it a certain number of times?

[steady pilot]

It loses its effectiveness

With each repair

[supple ridge]

Gotcha. That makes sense

[compact moth]

@waxen forge I will keep that in mind ty

[waxen forge]

After a point you want to get rid of it

[steady pilot]

The lower the durability the more rounds have a chance to penetrate and hurt you

[waxen forge]

Once durability is to a point (low) it's not worth keeping/using

[steady pilot]

25 durability or less I'd say

[supple ridge]

Copy that. Thanks for the help

i know i asked this befor but i didnt see the answer when i ADS with a sniper scope, the scope goes very slow does anyone know why? and is there a way to change the field of view

[steady pilot]

HEY

[worthy fern]

I've seen elsewhere that if you use nvidia reshaders they are considered as cheating and bannable, but is using nvidia freestyle allowed?

[steady pilot]

I say that to @waxen forge

[waxen forge]

You can say you feel the need for speed

[obtuse drift]

I'm looking for a sherpa to teach my Girlfriend how to play the game. I'm not that good in teaching and have been playing the game already for 2 years.

Dm me plz

[bold kernel]

@compact moth the trick to using pistol

is using assault rifles

or mosins

[supple terrace]

Where can I find the Intelligence Folders?

[steady pilot]

@obtuse drift what?

Why the fuck cant you??

Lmao

[split vapor]

ryan be nice

[steady pilot]

I am nice

It's a legitimate question

[long spear]

delta is the nicest person on this server

[split vapor]

woah

woah

girls dont play pc

[steady pilot]

Gtb is a girl tho

[split vapor]

egirl

[steady pilot]

[split vapor]

[obtuse drift]

because I dont have the patience.

[long spear]

lol

[steady pilot]

But she's YOUR girl

[split vapor]

ha

[hasty bolt]

is the Djeta worth using or should i just sell them?

[fossil patrol]

thought she was my girl

[obtuse drift]

But the thing is Sherpa's are here for new players.

[plucky reef]

can players hear when you aim or when you get your weapon stuck in the wall?

[split vapor]

sell IF

[steady pilot]

You arent wrong but

[fickle citrus]

Can you stop the CMS animation?

[long spear]

you aren't wrong, its just funny to hear

[steady pilot]

Fuck lol

[plucky reef]

like when you pull up the weapon

[obtuse drift]

I know.

[split vapor]

left click nico

[obtuse drift]

Haha

[steady pilot]

Sure let me

[fickle citrus]

Thanks

[steady pilot]

Slide in her dms

[split vapor]

Nico that goes for all meds, and single loading weapons

shotgun

mosin

[obtuse drift]

Like It's better to have a sherpa take her under his/her wing then me

[split vapor]

etc

[steady pilot]

I disagree cause you can physically show stuff

[obtuse drift]

Well, I'm leaving soon and we dont live together

[fossil patrol]

anyone wanna sherpa for me?

[steady pilot]

Damn

The feels

[long spear]

@obtuse drift i can try to help her but i have another person im gonna help today dont know when they are logging on so idk how long i have

[steady pilot]

Does she like sniping?

[obtuse drift]

She going though

[charred junco]

I need help getting roubles

[steady pilot]

Interchange

Learn

Love

[fossil patrol]

[steady pilot]

[fossil patrol]

lol

[royal elbow]

Is Reserve not a good map for beginners? I find myself really enjoying it.

Not sure if I'm wasting my time

[steady pilot]

Its okay

Just higher difficutly

Good for you if it works

[charred junco]

woods boss is so hard :/

[royal elbow]

The raid scavs are scary for sure

[charred junco]

but probably cause I have bad guns and have no clue what is good for what

[royal elbow]

but if I hide good enough, I seem to be really good at finding groups of pmcs or scavs to blow up with the turret grenade launcher from across map 😄

but then the inevitable snipe from dome happens

[charred junco]

anyone wanna teach me how to get roubles im running real low only have 60k left

[steady pilot]

Scav run

Scav run a lot

[charred junco]

on interchange?

[steady pilot]

Yes

Take effective budget guns such as hunter, veprkm

[charred junco]

when playing pmc?

[steady pilot]

Yes

[royal elbow]

well you don't have a choice with scav, so 😛

[steady pilot]

Just surviving raids makes money

Focus on that

[charred junco]

raids get you money? just by extracting? or selling on flea

[steady pilot]

No like

[rotund falcon]

Selling the stuff from raid

[steady pilot]

You arent dying

And losing kit

[charred junco]

oh

[sage olive]

grab 1-2 extra gun than what you entered with and sell

[steady pilot]

And picking up a scav gun or two

[rotund falcon]

You also get more coins from surviving a raid

[steady pilot]

Coins?

[charred junco]

well im really bad at this game so wish me luck😩

[rotund falcon]

Xp*

[steady pilot]

@charred juncoeveryone is when they start

[royal elbow]

I call them coins too haha

[steady pilot]

Do wiki research and beginner guides on YouTube

There plenty of tools at your disposal

[sage olive]

i also suggest learning map in offline mode and fight scav there a bit

[rotund falcon]

You got two monitors? @charred junco

[charred junco]

k

no sadly

[steady pilot]

Offline mode too

[fathom narwhal]

kda doesnt matter in this game though

[royal elbow]

What were you going to suggest @rotund falcon ?

[rotund falcon]

Map with extracts in one screen

[sage olive]

not knowing how to extract after looting is kinda a bummer at start

[steady pilot]

laughs in 14 kda

[fair hatch]

^

[dense ginkgo]

kda is what gets you rich

the more people you kill without dying the more you make

[steady pilot]

^

[fair hatch]

Even if you know the map.. map anyway

[steady pilot]

Smart

[royal elbow]

PMC kda maybe

[quartz holly]

are pmc runs only players or both scavs and players?

[steady pilot]

So all you people learning from your mistake that. Knowledge isnpower in this game

So you should do things

That gain you knowledge

[rotund falcon]

Btw middle mouse button to examine items faster @charred junco

[steady pilot]

@quartz holly theres ai scav, player scavs, raiders, guards and bosses + pmcs

[quartz holly]

got it

[steady pilot]

Player scavs spawn in your pmc raids to try and push your shit in

[rotund falcon]

basically everything attacks you as pmc

[steady pilot]

^

[quartz holly]

and scav runs its the same>

[steady pilot]

Scav runs you try to loot or kill pmcs

[rotund falcon]

not if you don’t attack other scavs
