It's fine if you prefer other headsets over comtacs

#

But headsets do make a huge difference

waxen forge
#

As long as it works for you...that is cool.

somber bolt
#

Is the airframe helmet good?

#

with chops

waxen forge
#

Overpriced

forest steppe
#

rommel i thought you were saying helmets werent worth earlier, maybe i misunderstood

fringe narwhal
#

in my 1600 hours of the game ive gone through wipes using tacs and not using them and i think that they are overrated

#

at least for me

waxen forge
#

You will die wearing a good/great helmet more times than it will save you

#

Yes it will save you..but not as many times as it won't

trim herald
#

@forest steppe No I don't think they are worth unless you're wearing like 400k worth of gear already

#

At that point, you may as well

somber bolt
#

Ive gotten my faceshield cracked alot on my cheap tier 3 helmet

forest steppe
#

ok nvm, i understood correctly then

#

probably ppl using bad ammo or scavs

somber bolt
#

Is the see through face shields only up too T4 armor?

fringe narwhal
#

yea

trim herald
#

Nah, even high quality rounds can bounce on faceshields

#

Unlikely though

somber bolt
#

So maybe I should just go with ulach helmet with killa armor?

trim herald
#

Yeah I go Ulach

#

Or Exfil

fringe narwhal
#

the vulcan and the lhsz-2d have level 4 face

trim herald
#

Depending on map

somber bolt
#

exfil for the face shield right?

forest steppe
#

so you do run helmets rommel, with your high gear loadouts it sounds like

trim herald
#

Correct, Northern

#

Yes Canasian

#

But I also have a lot of cash, so I don't need to be cheap

#

That's also why I tend to mod my guns to be as good as possible, regardless of how much extra I pay for that 1% extra recoil whatever

#

So you don't have to emulate that ๐Ÿ˜„

forest steppe
#

i got 3 mil rubles and about 15k dollars and i think 500 euros. a decent amount of cases and i always buy good ammo

but since im still learning i dont go full geared

waxen forge
#

Sounds like you are doing pretty well. Must be making good moves/decisions.

forest steppe
#

spent most of this week forcing traders to lvl 2

#

twitch drops didnt hurt my wallet either

somber bolt
#

Man the killa armor seems expensive, what would be a decent price and at what durability?

forest steppe
#

t7, doc case, keytool, dog tag case, bitcoins, gp coins, kiba key etc

unique wolf
#

Killa armor repairs really well

trim herald
#

If you can get a 0/60 cheap

#

That's fine

#

It repairs to 58.x with prapor

somber bolt
#

what does a full repair go for?

#

100K?

trim herald
#

Can't remember, but quite a bit

forest steppe
#

im not at home what does 0 killa armor cost

unique wolf
#

Armor prices are kind of tricky to track

trim herald
#

Unfortunately my stash is full of stupid pacas and white armours so I don't want to buy another one

forest steppe
#

why do you have those

somber bolt
#

0/60 for 200k is good?

waxen forge
#

Tasks i'm guessing

lost crypt
#

anyone know best way to get the price spent up on peacekeeper ?

trim herald
#

Buy $

somber bolt
#

I bought a 0/60 for 170k full repair for 50k ish

#

53352 to be exact, seems like I did a good buy?

trim herald
#

Sounds like it

runic imp
#

wooooo 16% survival rate -_-

somber bolt
#

Is bringing a total of 3 60 mags with BS ammo too much? xD

trim herald
#

I'd say so ๐Ÿ˜„

lost crypt
#

if i buy 13k $ will it count as 13K $ spent ?

somber bolt
#

you guys just top load mags or go full BS?

trim herald
#

Full BS

somber bolt
#

How much ammo would you bring then?

#

Or just have other mags with BT?

trim herald
#

I'd grab 1 or 2 60's, then some 30's and some spare ammo

somber bolt
#

Man I should probably work towards lvl3 workbench so I can craft it

trim herald
#

Can't craft BS afaik

somber bolt
#

oh

fringe narwhal
#

can craft 7n39

heady magnet
#

how good is the sr-25

#

idr if i asked that the other day

trim herald
#

Not as good as the M1A or RSASS

#

But it's a fun gun

heady magnet
#

ah okay

#

gotcha i may try the m1a and the sr-25 see which i like more

trim herald
#

Make sure you run the M1A with the SASS chassis for best performance

somber bolt
#

I got the ash-12 from a pmc kill today, worth keeping? Never used it

neat summit
#

I keep getting disconnected from game ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

heady magnet
#

okiedokie

trim herald
#

Trash-12 more like

somber bolt
#

its trash?

heady magnet
#

theoretically its a really strong gun but when u actually use it its poopoo

proud smelt
#

are there mines on shoreline or something???????

trim herald
#

Yes

#

The recoil on the trash-12 is crazy so you can only semi auto, the ammo is a bit mediocre honestly

somber bolt
#

I guess I should just stick to svd then for a dmr kindof weapon

proud smelt
#

cheers

royal wind
#

SVD is king.

heady magnet
#

m61 or m80

trim herald
#

m62 imo

heady magnet
#

also dt mount and hybrid 46 or gemtech mount and suppressor

trim herald
#

61 if you don't want tracers though

#

wave

#

should be

somber bolt
#

alt f4 and restart maybe?

limpid grove
#

got it.

#

ty.

heady magnet
#

is there a big difference between which mount and suppressor i use?

trim herald
#

The Wave is the best by far atm Kenny

#

!wiki wave 7.62

broken quailBOT
trim herald
#

No wikibot

#

Bad wikibot!

#

!wiki daniel defense wave 7.62

broken quailBOT
trim herald
#

!wiki daniel defense wave suppressor

broken quailBOT
heady magnet
#

oh no suppressor for the m1a?

#

oh ok

#

lemme look for that one

trim herald
#

Yeah just get the 7.62x51 muzzle

#

Clearly the bot hates me

heady magnet
#

oh but why m62 over m61 or m80

trim herald
#

Cheaper and you don't need the extra pen over the M61 really, the extra flesh damage can help. I prefer both over M80 as M80 can't 1tap chests on lvl 3+ armour anymore without fragmenting so it's lost some effectiveness

ruby nebula
#

what lvl do i need peacekeeper @ to buy the beta?

heady magnet
#

ah okay also the daniel defence doesnt fit on my m1a ;-;

#

whats another good one

trim herald
#

It should do ๐Ÿ˜„

#

@ruby nebula LL3 I think, but it's not really worth the trade anymore. I'd recommend going for the Epsilon from the Punisher quest line

ruby nebula
#

im super new is the punisher questline doable by wipe?

trim herald
#

Easily yeah

royal wind
#

Punisher isnt terrible, you can do it in a couple days at most.

heady magnet
#

I just bought the wrong mount oops lmao

trim herald
#

๐Ÿ˜„

ruby nebula
#

so does the container wipe or will it remain?

trim herald
#

All wipes

royal wind
#

Gone gone.

#

Everything gone.

heady magnet
#

so is that the best suppressor and mount for all guns?

#

should I use that on my tx 15 as well?

ruby nebula
#

i think im just gonna upgrade to eod...i guess eod only way to not have to start wipe with alpha...stupid video messed me up told me to get cheap version and updgrade to the bigger stuff but im guessing post wipe is dookie with a alpha

trim herald
#

Yes

heady magnet
#

also whats a good optic because I was using the eotech halo hssh or whatever but it feels like my bullets hit near the bottom of the holo instead of inside it

trim herald
#

@ruby nebula At least you're only paying the difference between standard and EoD ๐Ÿ˜„

#

It depends on what the optic is zero'd at Kenny

ruby nebula
#

yes but it was on sale.....knew i shoulda went big or went home lol

trim herald
#

If it's zero'd at 50 and you're shooting at 10m you bullets will be a bit low, because that's how the bore works

heady magnet
#

oh yeah true i am in my shooting range so im probably a lil close

trim herald
#

That's true, Rancor

#

I like the HAMR though

simple folio
#

LFM customs in channel #6 atm semi new player looking to run pmcs then scavs in between

trim herald
simple folio
#

fuuuck

#

sorry again

trim herald
#

It's fine ๐Ÿ˜„

simple folio
#

was reading in here on a loading screen

ruby nebula
#

gamma has to give you a boost on wipe

trim herald
#

Sure

#

The bonus trader rep isn't bad either

ruby nebula
#

ohh i forgot about that

trim herald
#

And the extra starting stash space is really nice ngl

ruby nebula
#

stash also

trim herald
#

You'll also get the DLC's for free for the first year or whatever after release

ruby nebula
#

yeah super bad advice video that was....im like lvl 5 and i can tell that was a mistake already

trim herald
#

I would give the same advice honestly, because the game is pretty niche

#

And a lot of people quit very quickly

ruby nebula
#

i can see that also

trim herald
#

For me EoD was 100% worth it

#

But I understand the game's not for everyone

#

Although those people who like it tend to find that other FPS games are a bit ruined after playing Tarkov ๐Ÿ˜„

ruby nebula
#

i lurked on this game for like a year though i honestly should have known better tbh

heady magnet
#

I also got EoD a few days after playing standard

ruby nebula
#

looter shooter addict and should habe knows soon as it said stash space....ahh well only like 25% off so guess its still worth it to me

somber bolt
#

I dont think my Tarkov addiction will effect my arena fps games too much ๐Ÿ˜›

modern willow
#

What's the best stock for FAL btw? That thing is terrible

trim herald
#

That's what I run

modern willow
#

SPR stock has the best recoil reduction then?

ruby nebula
#

well sigh.kenny i bet me and you not the only ones thats for sure...i cant honestly see quitting this game so will be good money saved on other trash games collection dust

somber bolt
#

Is Vert. recoil 47 + Hor. recoil 124 the best u can get for aks? Got that on my ak 74 atm

trim herald
#

AFAIK yes, Volks

#

Best I've found at least Northern

somber bolt
#

Okay, thought I found some lower numbers when looking a week ago, but that was probably during another patch

#

When I was looking on google that is

heady magnet
#

damn rommel now that u had me switch silencers and mount my tx 15 has 49 recoil and 90 ergo

#

LMAO

trim herald
#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

The wave is stupid good for a suppressor honestly

#

And cheap as well

heady magnet
#

my tx15 barely fucking moves now

#

i think i got it close to BiS

trim herald
#

That's my TX with a laser

#

So 99 erg without it I guess

heady magnet
#

im almost the same build just different stock and handle

#

and no rear or front sights

hollow terrace
#

how do i open a backpack on the floor? I tried pressing F and it dont work

somber bolt
#

Scroll wheel

#

to switch in menu when looking at it

trim herald
#

I stick the sights on for the extra 2 erg, and they don't bother me because they fold down

heady magnet
#

I'm so close to being out of money now ;-;

#

oh thats a good idea

#

whats ergo do

trim herald
#

ads time

#

and sta drain while ads

royal wind
#

and quieter ads

trim herald
#

Time to go make some more cash I guess ๐Ÿ˜„

heady magnet
#

oh ok i need that

#

im at like 2,3m now

royal wind
#

Stam drain is the big one for me. Get ergo high enough and you can stay aimed in with no stam drain.

trim herald
#

Covert movement also affect ads noise

#

Yeah, although some guns you don't really care as they're light enough to not really drain sta anyways

#

M4's come in mind, you don't need a lot of erg to remove the sta drain

somber bolt
#

mosin will always have crap ergo right?

royal wind
#

Havent gotten to use M4's yet. Not on those tasks yet.

somber bolt
#

even with the good chassi

trim herald
#

Yeah, it will

royal wind
#

lol, I looked at the Mosin - Ergo entry on Virion's modding spreadsheet.

#

It cracked me up.

whole galleon
#

whats a good budget armour/help setup

heady magnet
#

I have a few m4 builds im messing with

#

I wanna get as high as stats to BiS i can while still fitting how i want it to look

#

Pretty close with my tx-15 tbh

dusky geyser
#

Hello guys, I used to play Tarkov several months ago, then stopped for lack of time to play it, Now I find that since the last update, it has become even more difficult for us new players!!

trim herald
#

How come?

royal wind
#

You'll have an edge up on a lot of the truly new players, but yeah... there's been huge changes since .12

dusky geyser
#

Well, healing between raids (PMC) and also more waiting time until you can use a new SCAV

trim herald
#

Pigeons that a legit loadout

royal wind
#

Wrong person.

trim herald
#

No

#

The mosin

#

That's how I run mine

royal wind
#

Oh, lol.

#

I mean don't you?

#

Clicked on it and lost it.

Is there a way to save this chat log into a txt? i can just sit all day with an ipad and learn from all the questions and answers

trim herald
#

@dusky geyser Yes and no, some other changes makes it way easier for new players. Such as hidden caches on most maps

#

Making money has never been easier

#

Merc, I don't know honestly

#

@wraith pulsar I have no idea, never seen that before. Did you keep the stuff or no?

royal wind
#

It's actually less time between scavs now since the last time I had played. It used to be so long.

quaint shell
#

@proper ginkgo did u got it in the end?

trim herald
#

The good old 1hr scav CD?

royal wind
#

Yeah, that was rough.

trim herald
#

And then you got instantly killed by a player scav ๐Ÿ˜„

royal wind
#

Nowadays I finish a scav run, empty my inventory and start messing around, by the time I'm done I'm good for another round!

#

I like it.

trim herald
#

It feels really good once you've got the hideout upgrade for sure

outer mirage
#

how you switch between faceshield on or off?

trim herald
#

Before that it feels a bit long but that's just motivation to upgrade the hideout I guess

please someone tell me how do i extract like when i go on a scav run and get like 3 kills and loot what do i do then

trim herald
#

Double tap O

dusky geyser
#

@dusky geyser Yes and no, some other changes makes it way easier for new players. Such as hidden caches on most maps
@trim herald Yes I guess you are right about the money issue, but we new players die easy, and I find it very hard to get better since I have to wait 20 minutes between SCAV raids or heal my PMC with items that cost money I probably do not have or will end up not havin ifI keep dying

royal wind
#

It REALLY helps to use a map on another monitor to find your way around.

somber tulip
#

@trim herald okay so when i do that then what

trim herald
#

Use that map to figure out where you need to go ๐Ÿ˜„

somber tulip
#

one more question when i get to the place what do i do, do i need something liek a key or something liek dat

trim herald
#

Not to extract on customs no

royal wind
#

Healing between raids isnt terrible. Meds are cheap.

vale arrow
#

@somber tulip u just have to stand there

trim herald
#

Airi, bring them into raid and drink them

#

When you need hydration or energy

#

It'll level metabolism

royal wind
#

I keep a small stockpile of food/water so I dont have to always wait to recover after a raid to start a new one.

trim herald
#

You got a scav run up now Jardani?

royal wind
#

Bring them with you when you start a new raid and drink them in raid. You dont get exp by drinking them in stash.

trim herald
#

Eating and drinking in the stash does not level metabolism btw ๐Ÿ˜„

I have seen a lot of streamers making videos for beginners, but they mostly explain the fundamentals of the game mechanics.

@bold kernel Best bet when you start is to go offline on customs. Try to go from spawn to exit 10 times while dealing with scavs. If you can do that 50% of the time then you are ready for online.

My guy, go make a game, have your playerbase triple during a holiday period

Upgrading servers around the world, while keeping the ability to play the game online, is not a 1 day thing

then talk about the devs

They probably fucking rent servers

This isnt a triple A title in america dude

plucky reef

I doubt they own server halls in all those countries

Renting servers is what every major game dev does lol

just leave it be jeez

It is a 1 day thing when u rent servers

no its not

plucky reef

Throw more money and it fixes it

And you still have to coordinate all that, transfer everything, fix it when it inevitably breaks, and then again, and again

if you knew how to set up a server, you would know this

oh i don't need to find it in raid for skier quest?

weird

says find and turn in

trim herald

Yeah you can buy it

You need to find in raid for Ragman Q though

@plucky reef if its not 'find in raid' he doesnt care

steady pilot

Does it say find "in raid"

plucky reef
#

oh raids need to be there

#

confusing

steady pilot
#

You can "find " it on the market

#

๐Ÿคท

plucky reef
#

should just be turn in my mind and not find oh well

waxen forge

Read "find" as "get" and Find in raid as "find in raid (on the map spawned there..not brought in by players)"

plucky reef

Yeah thanks, will keep that in my head

@waxen forge Stuff looted off of players count as find in raid though

Would you like to apologize for being wrong about how sherplling gear worked

steady pilot
#

The pin was unclear

waxen forge
#

Not if they brought it in.

steady pilot
#

Your elaborations weren't good either

waxen forge
#

Has to spawn in the map as far as I know.

plucky reef
#

So uh the find things in raid does not track before i get the quest right?

waxen forge
#

Yes it does

#

That's why I start picking up task items day 1

plucky reef
#

Not if i have sold them tho?

split vapor
#

not sure how sherpa style affects what a sherpling picks from the list

spark marsh
#

It does track. So if you know what your looking for it can be good

waxen forge
#

So i can just hand that crap in when I finally get the task

trim herald
#

Pretty sure it doesn't, it just can't be brought by someone you're grouped with

#

As I'm sure I got both of my find in raid AVS rigs from pmc's

steady pilot
#

I heard from another sherpa you get gear based on the type of sherpa you picked

waxen forge
#

I took an AVS off a dead player earlier in the wipe and it didn't count as find in raid

steady pilot
#

So that plus information that was pinned

waxen forge
#

Unless tarkov just screwed me on that one

split vapor
#

Well whom said that is incorrect

steady pilot
#

Was confusing

royal wind

I dont know how rquipment works, but I know it doesnt work for items.

Sherpa Style does not affect sherpling style gear

Seen multiple people complaining about morphine they've found on PMCs not raid found for therapist.

I mean I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure mine were from pmc's as I can't remember looting any avs's from scavs

plucky reef

Man this 7 graphics card quest is ugh, not even a decent reward for it.

They have a date for podcast?

Only black Friday and Christmas this year if I'm not mistaken.

Never know but $45 USD for the base game is very reasonable for all the hours you can get from it imo

Shroud should be there too, I think he's way more useful in the podcasts than Klean

trim herald

steady pilot

Then I realized how much less you hear

next vessel
#

#

mighty mica
#

comtacs are pretty decent too for their price

steady pilot
#

Comtacs

next vessel
#

alright

#

mighty mica
#

gssh are good for budget

#

trim herald
#

Comtacs are only 20k or so on Flea

steady pilot
#

Head sets are also rarely looted

trim herald
#

Unless they're sports ๐Ÿ˜„

#

Because comtacs are so cheap

#

And sports are like 40k

oak bear
#

hey all, is there a standard basic loadout that will allow me to actually kill enemies and not die within two shots? I find that I'm struggling to kill people due to me not dealing enough damage ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

trim herald
#

so when i kill someone

#

what am i looking for for the gun

#

like parts

#

to take

steady pilot
#

@slim questrheres only 2 exits and sometimes people like to camp them

#

I mean there's a vehicle exit but yeah.

trim herald
#

If you have space just grab the gun, otherwise suppressor and optics are worth the most

aite

ty

open flower
#

idk what servers to add

steady pilot
#

Foregrip suppressor and optivs

slim quest
#

vehicle exit takes money on character right

steady pilot
#

@open flower anything under 150ping

polar leaf
#

how long does it usually take to get a sherpa through the website?

spark marsh
#

Flashlights as well and lasers can be worth

steady pilot
#

St louis Chicago , big cities are busy servers

golden badge
#

@trim herald what should i use if i have a bastion cover on?

trim herald
#

Yeah flashlights and lasers
