[fluid path]

i think 150k is fair to risk for how badass it is

[slim quest]

I dropped about 200k on this gun setup

[fluid path]

it has good range, it used to be capped at 30 fps

[slim quest]

Really hoping I don’t die my first raid lol

[fluid path]

so now its quite usable

i think youll usually make your money back on it

[rocky ocean]

@slim quest pic of loadout? :D

[slim quest]

Lol sure give me a sec

It ain’t super amazing

Just I know my current account is gonna get reset in a week or two when my friends start playing just so we at the same point so I’m kinda screwing around with what I got

[fluid path]

lol

just help them catch up, no?

[slim quest]

Gotta it’s cheaper than I expected

[fluid path]

or do you like hard mode

[slim quest]

Eh I would but I don’t mind the grind again, only level 5, and it’ll keep them from complaining

[fluid path]

unless you have millions and everything unlocked, you basically are already reset

ah i see

i love when the entire game wipes

thats the good shit

[night mural]

Only 5 months to go until then

;)

[slim quest]

I've only got about 500k left

have 3 vepr loadouts tho so it won't be hard to make money back

[rocky ocean]

holyfk

[slim quest]

lol I had help from Delta to set it up on a budget

[fluid path]

unsolicited advice, id spring for 855a1 or 856

[slim quest]

actually modding this adar really helped with understanding modding

[tribal cove]

Ppl recommend me to use a heavy helmet with no comtact slot on factory, but last time I used a ssh and the 20k comtacts I felt like I have a huge advantage over other players and I dominated

[slim quest]

I use the a1 ammo

non tracer

[fluid path]

ah just saw the bullet chambered, my b

[slim quest]

wazie comtacs are super important

imo

[fluid path]

assumed your mags were the same

[slim quest]

oh is the bullet not a1

rip

need to un chamber that lol

[night mural]

Honestly it's a matter of preference on headset/helmet

[naive atlas]

@tribal cove you can run helmets that use a visor and headphones

[night mural]

If you feel safer using comtacs then use them

[stone surge]

@slim quest opt for m855a1 rather than m856a1

[naive atlas]

Like crye

[slim quest]

I like the gssh

[stone surge]

it's both cheaper and better.

[night mural]

No reason not to just because people said so

[slim quest]

I’ve got m855a1

Ty though

[tribal cove]

@naive atlas yeah, that would work too

[night mural]

55a1 does have accuracy debuff though

But yeah it's better otherwise

[slim quest]

I mean

night raids

I have time to get shots

ideally

[stone surge]

the accuracy debuf is not noticeable when ur not actually sniping

same with pk-06

pk-06 has acc debuff, which is not noticeable at all

and if you go sniping

[night mural]

They removed that I think

[stone surge]

go m995*

[night mural]

For the pk

[stone surge]

oh they removed it, correct

didnt even know that

but even when the acc debuf was on it

[slim quest]

lol I would have gotten m995

[stone surge]

it wasn't noticeable at all

[slim quest]

but pricy

[night mural]

And yes I agree but with an adar at range the accuracy might come into play

[stone surge]

yes but let's say ur sniping with adar or tx-15

i would say, really atleast put top 10 bullets m995

[slim quest]

lol that was an adar, rip

[stone surge]

sniping with inferior/budget bullets is just weird to me

[night mural]

I wouldn't even bother with 995

[slim quest]

maybe I'll get a 20 mag of m995

just incase

[night mural]

The cost isnt worth it

[stone surge]

m995 isn't too expensive

if you make it

yourself

[slim quest]

can't make it

[stone surge]

costs like 700 each?

not too bad

[night mural]

It just isn't worth using fullstop

Even if you make it

Sell it

[slim quest]

eh, I mean

[stone surge]

it is

[slim quest]

the penetration is better

[night mural]

Not for the price

[stone surge]

price doesnt matter at some point

[naive atlas]

By the time you can make it you are probably rich enough to buy it

[slim quest]

especially if you expect class 5 armor

[atomic knoll]

Or if you are on a budget, don't use ADAR? The 7.62x39 PS is arguably one of the best and cheap ammo

[stone surge]

you're better of budgetting on armor/helmet than on bullets

which means m995 will come in somewhere

[graceful marsh]

budget = hunter

[night mural]

Honestly I just wouldn't use it at this point

But fair enough

[stone surge]

hunter with m80 is more budget and better than adar m885a1 or 7.62 PS

[graceful marsh]

u go boom boom and he ded

[night mural]

Not saying it isnt better, but the price its asking you're just spraying money away

[tiny laurel]

Mosin also

[atomic knoll]

Sure hunter + m80 works too

Or mosin. Just depends on preference

[naive atlas]

Face tapping with mosin is satisfying

[rocky ocean]

@slim quest is it your first raid?

[atomic knoll]

Anything is better then expensive 5.45 ammos

[rocky ocean]

@naive atlas pistols aswell 😁 👍

[slim quest]

first raid? no. first night raid? technically yes

[tiny laurel]

Chest works well also

[stone surge]

it isn't on the other end

[slim quest]

if you don't count the first night raid I did where I died cause I forgot I picked night time, yeah first night raid planned

[tiny laurel]

The other end never matters :)

[rocky ocean]

you wrote "hope dont die my first raid" thats why i was wondering^^

[slim quest]

ah first real raid with the gun

I did one offline, gun works nice

just idk how I'll do with it against pmc

[naive atlas]

Mosin is like the great equalizer, even when fully geared you have to be scared of it

[slim quest]

probably do some night raids to hit caches on shoreline tomorrow

[stone surge]

i personally cant stand bolt action

but love semi

so i've never really used mosin ever.

but it's a good gun if you like it

[slim quest]

pretty well the same for me, bolt just screws you if people are too close

[stone surge]

mosin ergo bothers me too much too

[naive atlas]

It's what make it so fun to use

[stone surge]

i dont mind bolt action THAT much, i just hate the ergo

i dont wanna take 1 full second to zoom in

but mosin is prob the reason i dont go tier 4 armor anymore

[slim quest]

what else does ergo affect

[stone surge]

being oneshot to chest a few times on shoreline or w/e making my way to resort

bothers me

[night mural]

Ergo = ads speed and stamina drain while ads

[slim quest]

also think paca armor is ok just to help with scavs when I do my night runs? or should I opt for higher tier or just no armor

[stone surge]

Also ads noise

so if u wanna be sneaky, adsing makes a shit ton of noise

and ergo reduces it

[slim quest]

I've got paca and 6b13

[stone surge]

yes

the only thing paca helps against

is scavs really

[night mural]

As long as you know paca wont save you against anything but buckshot and a few pistols

Its fine

[rocky ocean]

^

[slim quest]

pretty much why I want some armor, really hate to lose 2-300k to a scav getting lucky

[rocky ocean]

hunterscavs will still shredd you

[stone surge]

@slim quest 6b3tm my brother

45k for tier 4 + rig included

[rocky ocean]

@slim quest im using a 6b5-15 t4

[night mural]

And repairs well

[atomic knoll]

And you get it back most of the time

[stone surge]

6b5-15 is horrible

for a lot of reasons

[slim quest]

oh yeah armored rigs

not a bad idea

[night mural]

Some of them are decent

[slim quest]

should I sell or keep the 6b13 then

[night mural]

Definitely better than a paca if you can spare the money

[atomic knoll]

Sell

[slim quest]

it's class 4 and 40.5 dura

[atomic knoll]

Just get the 6b3tm

[night mural]

The 6b13 is fine

[stone surge]

6b5-15 has the worst effective durability in the game (worse than 6b3tm) is more expensive than 6b3tm also is ceramic so once you use it once and repair it. it's basically useless

[night mural]

At 40 dura it's worth running

If you have to repair it you'll fuck that dura up though

[rocky ocean]

@stone surge i always find them dont really spent any money on them

[night mural]

So probably wont get much more out of it

[rocky ocean]

have been rarely got killed

[atomic knoll]

One repair drops the 6b3tm by 2.5 to 37.5 which isn't too bad tbh

[stone surge]

@rocky ocean it's not worth taking with you is the thing

they're 50k (assuming full) for a shit ton of slots in backpack

while a bolt takes 1spot and is 20-25k

just an example.

[rocky ocean]

which one should i switch to?

[stone surge]

6b3tm for cheap

or trooper for expensive tier 4 but more reliable.

[rocky ocean]

is it t4?

[stone surge]

yes

and repairs decent too

[rocky ocean]

ok thanks will check it out later!

[slim quest]

54k for a full 6b3

roughly

[stone surge]

6b3tm is 47k at trader

for full

[slim quest]

lol don't have that trader unlocked I bet

[rocky ocean]

like said i have never spent any money on armored rigs 😅

[slim quest]

yeah I'd have to rank up trader

[rocky ocean]

or armored vests / rigs

[slim quest]

is there a way to filter by max dura in flea market

[rocky ocean]

that would be so good

[rich cloak]

Nope there is not

Real talk tho armored rigs are great

[stone surge]

there is an indirect way

filter on most expensive rigs

[rocky ocean]

^

[stone surge]

the top10 99% of the time

contains the fullest rigs.

then just scroll down to find the cheapest.

it kinda sucks and they should fix the filters

but this is how you do it rn

[slim quest]

is 17k for 0/40 worth? idk how much to repair it

[rocky ocean]

they have other prios atm^^

[stone surge]

@slim quest it's OKish

[rocky ocean]

but it could be worse tbh

[stone surge]

the thing isd

it's titan so the repairs arent that great

[rich cloak]

@EarthBound#4503 what rig?

[stone surge]

it'll be like ~35ish durability after repair

but that means if someone destroys it and you get it back

it's basically useless

and if you buy a full 40/40 you can die with it

repair

and re-use

[bronze ice]

@slim quest Add them to your wishlist, then filter

[slim quest]

I'm fine with it tbh, how much would be the repair be

[stone surge]

prob 20kish

[atomic knoll]

11-12k ish i guess

[slim quest]

35 would still be enough protection right?

[stone surge]

it depends on what trader you repair with

[slim quest]

or is it way worse

[rich cloak]

Eh

Not great

[stone surge]

35

is okej

[atomic knoll]

Are you level 15 yet?

[slim quest]

nope lol

[atomic knoll]

ok

[rich cloak]

You have to keep in Mind that most players will penetrate full level 4 on at least the second shot anyways

[stone surge]

@slim quest 35durability off 40 dura = ~85% durability

85% durability still works fine and holds most bullets

but i wouldn't go below 75-80% ish

[rocky ocean]

@stone surge i just checked the rig im using both depending on what im finding in raids

[stone surge]

of the normal (full) dura

[slim quest]

so it's solid raider protect, and ok against average pmc, and will block maybe the first shot of a well geared pmc right?

eh it got bought already

rip

[rich cloak]

Allways depends on what they use but yeah kinda

[slim quest]

I've got 400k so it would have been nice to save some cash and still have some decent protection

[naive atlas]

@slim quest put a trade up for 6b3tm

I'll take it can be anything

[slim quest]

you don't have to lol

[rich cloak]

50k really isn't that much tbh

[naive atlas]

I dont do anything with my roubles anyway

[slim quest]

I do appreciate it, but I'm just screwing around with my account right now

feels bad to take someones money if I'll just reset soon anyways

[naive atlas]

I have like 50m-60m total assets

The 6b3tm wont really affect me that much

[shrewd bobcat]

Morning lads

[slim quest]

anything you prefer then? or do you already have hideout and stuff maxed too lol

[naive atlas]

Just put up a trade for matches or something

[slim quest]

alright

[bold kernel]

I plan on upgrading my version to edge of darkness i heard some people have to reset their account is there a way around that?

[slim quest]

did a double a battery

[naive atlas]

I didnt reset

[slim quest]

aladdin it no longer requires reset

upgrades stash and mails you the items

[rich cloak]

@naive atlas how the fuck does your stash look then

[bold kernel]

sweet

thank you boiss

[slim quest]

np

probably a stacked stash tbh

[naive atlas]

@rich cloak cases of m4s I'm too scared to use

[slim quest]

lol

[shrewd bobcat]

@slim quest Do you wanna see my new baby?

[naive atlas]

I mostly use meta ak 74n

[slim quest]

yes

ak 74n work well?

[obtuse girder]

anyone wanna play

[naive atlas]

@slim quest which item, 74n has lowest recoil with BIS

[slim quest]

@shrewd bobcat wanna see my upgraded one?

AA battery john

had 5 of them lol

[rich cloak]

Pretty sure 74m has better recoil

[slim quest]

and nice, I have a 74n still

[rich cloak]

N just has the dovetail

[naive atlas]

@slim quest done 👌 have fun

[atomic knoll]

74n has the lowest recoil with BiS mods

[tiny laurel]

What dies the annoyncer mean by raid time reduced by 10 mins ? The time that raids can last or the matching time?

[rich cloak]

You sure about that?

[naive atlas]

The difference is minuscule

[atomic knoll]

74M's stock is fold-able

So yes

[slim quest]

lol thank you @naive atlas I'll ping you when I do my runs tomorrow and let you know how it goes

[shrewd bobcat]

@slim quest

[naive atlas]

Check virions guide

[shrewd bobcat]

Laser beam man

[slim quest]

lol

how much it cost ya

[rich cloak]

@atomic knoll oh wait can 74n take the zhukov?

[paper ruin]

best way to level up vendors?

[shrewd bobcat]

Sherpa gift 🙂

[atomic knoll]

@rich cloak Yes

[slim quest]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521626362251837451/669822004500627466/unknown.png

[atomic knoll]

Not the M

[slim quest]

lol nice sherpa then

[rich cloak]

That's why then

[slim quest]

how'd the sherpa runs go

[atomic knoll]

That's why indeed

[shrewd bobcat]

Myself and Sherpa went into woods and he died poor thing so I took his loot and he swapped his loot with that xD

[atomic knoll]

Hence I specifically mentioned foldable stock

on the M

[slim quest]

that's a nasty looking gun

[shrewd bobcat]

Sherpa went really really well man, 3 raids all crazy crazy fun, never sank 3 hours into tarkov so easily.

[rich cloak]

Recoil modding on a adar

[slim quest]

I might have to do a sherpa run or two at some point

lol yeah drago

I had to stick with semi poor parts lol

could have added more ergo but it would have been 100k or so more to do it

[shrewd bobcat]

I Sherpa'd to get someone to take me into woods as I'm too much of a pussy lol but the dude asked me after the first raid if I wanted to do some more as he was impressed with my performance kik

[naive atlas]

M855 is bad ammo I wouldnt use it

[shrewd bobcat]

lol

[slim quest]

oh it's not actually m855 in there

forgot to unchamber the round

magazine is all m885a1

[naive atlas]

👌

[slim quest]

lol jude glad it went well

If I sherpa they will probably laugh at me lol

[naive atlas]

I still use BT ammo

I'm too cheap

[slim quest]

lol

I use bp in my veprs

and I'm broke

or kinda broke

[obtuse girder]

anyone wanna play

[naive atlas]

I'll be so sad when wipe hits

[slim quest]

I've got stuff to sell if I ever lose my 3 pre built guns

[naive atlas]

All those horded roubles

[slim quest]

lol use it before you lose it?

[obtuse girder]

yo where tf is the looking for team chat

[slim quest]

#pvp-lfg

[obtuse girder]

[slim quest]

just click the hashtag i typed

[atomic knoll]

#news-setup & #521628660298678283 first@obtuse girder

[obtuse girder]

i cant

[half jackal]

@obtuse girder #521628660298678283 & #news-setup first

[slim quest]

ah that be why

alright I should now look at jobs on linkedin instead of playing games

[obtuse girder]

still dont see it

[tender charm]

scav run timers are kinda fked up now

[half jackal]

did you ✅

[slim quest]

you have to do the stuff in rules and setup

[tender charm]

just spawned in interchange 10 min left

[atomic knoll]

Have you done what's needed at those channel?

[obtuse girder]

ya i did

[atomic knoll]

Then wait. Your name will turn blue

[night mural]

You didnt do it right or it hasnt worked then

[obtuse girder]

nVm got it

thx

[night mural]

That's it

:)

[ocean bolt]

help? what the fuck is a tank battery and why is it so big? what do i se it for? when do i need it? should i keep or sell?

[atomic knoll]

Sell it if you don't need it

[slim quest]

think it sells for a decent amount

[atomic knoll]

200k-ish

[ocean bolt]

what do i need it for tho

like it has to have a use if its worth that much

[atomic knoll]

A quest

[slim quest]

one for a quest and you can craft car batteries with it

[ocean bolt]

what do i need car batteries for?

im lvl 6 btw do i need it soon?

[atomic knoll]

Quests too lol

[slim quest]

looks like it's the last prapor quest btw

for the tank battery

so idk you got time

[ocean bolt]

ok

[atomic knoll]

IMO, just sell it

[ocean bolt]

ye nah its fucking big i have like no room lol im selling it

[slim quest]

200k at level 6 feels like it's worth more than holding space in a stash for a tank battery

[ocean bolt]

btw how do i sell it?

[night mural]

250k to therapist

[ocean bolt]

yes im a noob

[atomic knoll]

Via the flea market

[ocean bolt]

ok i understand that

[night mural]

Sell to therapist

[ocean bolt]

but

[night mural]

Not flea

[atomic knoll]

Ok that works

[slim quest]

yeah if price is like 270 you might make more from flea market otherwise therapist

[night mural]

The fees will cut into your profits and therapist pays just as much

And early on 250k spent at therapist is a godsend for LL

[slim quest]

oh true

[ocean bolt]

ll?

[slim quest]

damn that's lucky lol

[ocean bolt]

profits

fees?

help

[slim quest]

ok

LL is trader levels

[ocean bolt]

ok i got that

[slim quest]

basically spend x amount and get rep with that trader to a certain level and you can unlock more shop inventory

[ocean bolt]

a wider variety ok

[slim quest]

on flea market, when you sell things there is a fee

[night mural]

Listing things on flea costs you

[ocean bolt]

ahh ok

[slim quest]

but traders also buy certain things at decent value

[ocean bolt]

si the diff between prices and the cost to sell is what ur taling about?

[slim quest]

yes

[ocean bolt]

ah ok word brutha

[slim quest]

if you really want to make sure you get as much money as you can from things, you check relevant traders depending on what you sell and flea market costs

[analog depot]

I hope the update isn't gonna break tarkov again for me

[slim quest]

therapist takes most valuables and misc items at good price
skier is who you sell mods to first, then rest to mechanic
ragman for armor and clothing

[ocean bolt]

ok cheers

😋

[slim quest]

Man I've been getting the shaft on loot compared to some people lol

[past lodge]

Is it worth upgrading to LVL3 bitcoin farm if you have full 25 lvl2 Bitcoin Farm?

What's the math there?

[slim quest]

not sure the math, but do you plan to keep going further with it and do you play each day?

[night mural]

Do you have more gpus to put in?

If yes, upgrade

If no, no upgrade

[slim quest]

that's better logic lol

[night mural]

No point upgrading unless you have more graphic cards to dump into it

Actually

If you have the materials to upgrade it

[shrewd bobcat]

Hm

[night mural]

Then upgrade now, so you're not waiting for it to install when you do find more

[naive atlas]

Might be worth if you run interchange/reserve/shoreline alot

Unlimited free gfx cards

[night mural]

Unless hatchlings beat you there

As usual

[slim quest]

tbh if you play enough and plan to play enough, no downfall to upgrading it

[atomic knoll]

There is.

[slim quest]

wipe is at least 5 months away so plenty of time to profit

[atomic knoll]

5 months?

[night mural]

Yes

[atomic knoll]

Hmm wasn't it March?

[slim quest]

at minimum most likely

[night mural]

Nah

It was speculated to be march

[atomic knoll]

rip

[night mural]

But in the latest dev roadmap nikita said 5 months for global wipe

[slim quest]

they did a post or something saying they are aiming for 5 months. Might take longer

Plenty of time to lose all my shit lol

[night mural]

Or make millions

don't sell yourself short

[ocean bolt]

any of this good or worth anything, keep sell use somewhere?

[night mural]

Factory key is useful

rest of it, if you're not planning on using it then sell it

If you're not hurting for money then the car battery is needed for a quest later

If you need money, they sell for a bit on flea

[ocean bolt]

sell the rest?

[night mural]

Honestly, ye

[slim quest]

lol stanler, I sell myself short for now. I'm okay at best

[night mural]

I have faith in you Earth

[ocean bolt]

@ocean bolt Red - sell or use, not worth much
Green - needed for quest or hideout
Yellow - Very useful, Keycard sell on flea for now though

[night mural]

Reserve is a great scav map

[ocean bolt]

ye

[half jackal]

interchange is also really really good for scaving

[ocean bolt]

easy to stick to the outsides cus like 4 exits atre on border

[night mural]

Interchange is just good fullstop

[half jackal]

🤔🤔 why does it say there's nothing in West san.325 but the key can be sold 240k to the rapist

[naive atlas]

No I have never used any of my m4s

[slim quest]

lol try?

[night mural]

325 is always unlocked anyway

lmao

[tiny laurel]

Wot

[night mural]

Notes
The room is always open.

[tiny laurel]

Then wtf I that key price

[naive atlas]

I just keep them in my case to look at

[night mural]

sell it @tiny laurel

before people catch on its useless

;D

[tiny laurel]

Yeh I guess, quite peculiar

Only time I went there indeed it was unlocked, I only assumed I wasn't first

Guess I'll run west 222 and east 310 from now on

[sour plume]

I have too many shoreline keys and like no room in case

[slim quest]

one day I'll run resort

[sour plume]

idk what keys to keep lol

[slim quest]

not anytime soon tho

[tiny laurel]

Rolex watch + Paracord last and only time I tried lul

Seems to me like major keys are sanatorium on resort and the RB- something keys in reserve

Maybe marked room too but dorms seems to be too popular to be a legit moneyrun I think

[night mural]

Marked room is massive profit if you can survive dorms

And get lucky

[tiny laurel]

That's the point

[night mural]

But they key is cheap af

[atomic knoll]

A big if for me

[tiny laurel]

10 raids out of 100 i get the good spawn for marked key
1 out of those 10 i get a chance to survive
Lol

[night mural]

Just pop some early painkillers and yeet yourself off the roof

Easy escape

[atomic knoll]

I would much rather just run interchange

So much safer

[naive atlas]

You can jump on top of the fence

[night mural]

Yes you can

But its much more fun to fly off the roof

[tiny laurel]

Meh, that's when there isn't the 4+ scavs coming to patrol wierdly at the timing I get to the room

[slim quest]

lol

yeet off the roof

[night mural]

Also if you don't drop onto the fence right you'll fracture your legs anyway

[slim quest]

beautiful

[night mural]

Gotta hit that sweet angle

[naive atlas]

The pvp in dorms is part of the fun imo

[slim quest]

I like the idea of the pvp in this game

[tiny laurel]

Snatorium / interchange seem more consistent for me when it's about moneyruns
Customs is lowgear cqb for me

[slim quest]

just need to get good first

[naive atlas]

It's better than getting killed by someone hiding in a bush near dorms

[slim quest]

on interchange, if the graphics cards are looted by hatchlings

what do I do then?

[night mural]

Customs is horrible for me right now, having to do the setup quest is just no fun

[slim quest]

to make profit

[tiny laurel]

Go faster

[half jackal]

@slim quest Oli - easy 400-600k

[night mural]

Loot everything else

[tiny laurel]

Or loot other stuff

[night mural]

There are countless spots with loot

[slim quest]

I'm talking like profit in gamma

[tiny laurel]

Oli has hardware /tools /fuel etc

[slim quest]

cause if I run interchange

I'm likely to die

[night mural]

No you wont

You'll kill and extract

[half jackal]

Exp Fuel Tanks - 40-70k/ea, Water Filters - 50-80k/ea, Hoses - 30-50k/ea, Propane Tanks - 60-80k/ea

[slim quest]

lol every time I pmc on interchange I die

[half jackal]

Helix

Tubes

Flash drives

[tiny laurel]

Interchange is only risky if you hunt for Killa /kibastore or stay too long in front of the mall in my experience

[slim quest]

ooh ok that's a good list with prices

[night mural]

4/100 killa kills done

We flying

[slim quest]

hoses weren't too hard when I did offline runs

see I like how easy it is to find extract on interchange

[tiny laurel]

Also look for the room with the 4-5 PC's, I found a flash drive ysd on those in oli

[slim quest]

oh I know that room

broke me even when I died extracting lol

[half jackal]

@slim quest can you play rn? no vc just in-game group

[slim quest]

nah

[half jackal]

you dont need to bring anything

[slim quest]

it's 1:46 am

[half jackal]

at all

[tiny laurel]

Flash drives are plugged in the USB slot of the PC, easy to miss

[half jackal]

ah

[slim quest]

and I'm job hunting lol

oh wait

flashdrives aren't from looting

rip

[naive atlas]

@slim quest dev?

[slim quest]

yeah lol

[tiny laurel]

They aren't inside of the PC, they are plugged on it

[slim quest]

just applied to nintendo lol

[tiny laurel]

Like they would irl, litterally

[night mural]

nintendo? EFT on switch when

[slim quest]

ah yeah I might have missed one knox lol

[naive atlas]

Nice GL

[slim quest]

lol I most likely won't get the position

[naive atlas]

For which position/language

[slim quest]

one for game dev stuff, one for software engineer, one probably for web dev

I know c# java and js/jquery

and can learn some more stuff if needed

almost got a real good job a few months back, but they went with more experience which sucks

[naive atlas]

Ahh nice, I prefer js and python myself ima just apply to prob amazon or msft

[slim quest]

ooh I know python too, always forget that I do lol

I'm also gonna apply to them but I saw a nintendo position and decided to do that too

[naive atlas]

Yea would be fun but you always hear the horror stories of game devs

Long hours less pay etc

[slim quest]

I mean, I have what I expect to earn

so if I hit that amount

I'm happy

plus dev experience would be nice

eventually want to work on my own game

[night mural]

Just write on your resume that you make killa your bitch

And they'll have to hire you

[slim quest]

lol

clearly

if only life was that easy

although

I haven't killed killa

[naive atlas]

Battlestate games is hiring 👌

[slim quest]

lol aren't they in russia

also I'm a bit new to software

so I doubt they want me and I doubt you want me there lol

[night mural]

EarthBound

You are a champion

Stop putting yourself down

[ocean bolt]

shoreline is fucking campers everywhere, just got extract camped at both my exits

couldnt make it out had ak and mosin

[atomic knoll]

Isn't that every map?

Literally?

[ocean bolt]

no

[naive atlas]

Camp the extract campers

[atomic knoll]

Right

No

Sure

[bold kernel]

what is best map for mpc

[slim quest]

lol don't worry I still try shit @night mural

[bold kernel]

solo mpc

[slim quest]

also idk I've yet to be camped on shoreline

I'll run into people extracting as well but usually it's not too bad

[naive atlas]

@bold kernel pmc?

[bold kernel]

yeah pmc sry

rofl

level 10 pmc that is

[naive atlas]

Customs interchange

[bold kernel]

Customs is kinda crazy

what is best place there for pmc

dorms is mad as hell

people camp in the bushes outside it

[naive atlas]

It has the early quests so you have to go there anyway

[bold kernel]

with xray scopes

[bronze ice]

@slim quest Ubisoft is hiring quite often and accepts juniors 🤷

[naive atlas]

@bold kernel you can just avoid dorms and gas station

[bold kernel]

gas station havent been that risky for me

but dorms is dangerzone always and almost always get killed there

[naive atlas]

Scav boss can spawn at gas station

[bold kernel]

😄

what does scav boss give? or why is he a boss

maybe i have killed him

[naive atlas]

He has a golden tt

[bold kernel]

golden tt?

[naive atlas]

And has guards

It's a pistol

[bold kernel]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/TT_pistol_7.62x25_TT_Gold

this one?

[naive atlas]

Yep

[bold kernel]

its not even worth much

eftloot says ~30k

what else does it do

[naive atlas]

It's also an armored rig trade

[bold kernel]

does the scav boss have something else

yeah 4 of those pistols for it

[bronze ice]

Wow, wasn't this like 90k? 😮

[naive atlas]

He can have labs card

[bold kernel]

dunno i only checked the rough estimate

[slim quest]

ooh thank you dirox

[bold kernel]

mmm labs card

maybe this game could feel different in a squad

i have been playing only solo

its fuckery when im against squads alone

they circle around me

i kill the other guy and other guy is 180 degrees other direction shooting me already

[slim quest]

yeah, even solo players can do that

[bold kernel]

hmm maybe

[slim quest]

I've had a guy circle me while I was a scav

[bold kernel]

too much shooting with silenced gun attracts everyone to the scene

[slim quest]

had a sawn off mosin so wasn't really a good match

eh I don't use silencers for day raids

from what I understand people love to hunt those

[bold kernel]

😄

[slim quest]

plus they pricy

[bold kernel]

but i just have extra silencers in my inventory always

[slim quest]

I have a few vepr kms for my day raids

[bold kernel]

never have bought them

[slim quest]

I mean if that's the case no issue using them

[bold kernel]

i havent tried night raids

[slim quest]

tho you could sell them to mod your guns more

[bold kernel]

whats the best tips for night raids

?

Someone from twitch said shroud killed guys from Sherpa group

[slim quest]

um, I'm the wrong guy to ask tbh

[bold kernel]

@bold kernel just now?

Yeah, he’s on interchange

@slim quest but are flashlights worth using if they expose you?

[slim quest]

I'm using a sileneced adar with thermal scope

[bold kernel]

He got some like level 5s lmao felt so bad

[slim quest]

if you can handle the price of a thermal and/or nvgs, no need for flashlights really

[bold kernel]

shroud? is he on summit1g stream

he is

They’re doing duos

Gonna back to stream actually adios

[cerulean pumice]

dang, the weapon case is a lot smaller than i thought

[bold kernel]

shroud is goin offline

😐

[cerulean pumice]

the RDG smoke grenade looks like a burrito or a kebab to me

[bold kernel]

oh im so jelly at summit1g inventory and gear

he makes looting good guns look so easy

[tiny laurel]

Looting is easy

You just have to survive after looting :)

[bold kernel]

RoFL

yaya

i have looted rich dudes many times over

survived: only once.

[tiny laurel]

Don't be greedy once you got lootz, and be sneaky

[bold kernel]

last time that should have been the thought in my head

[fickle kettle]

More like looting easy

Is*

[slim quest]

My sadest loot was like my 3rd run and I didn't know if ai scav could flip you off if you are a scav

[fickle kettle]

But not get a headshot while looting is another story

[slim quest]

lost a full kit with m4

[bold kernel]

i was fighting 1 guy solo both of us had obviously good guns and armors and grenades and so on then i managed to kill him and tried looting him and got shot 2 times in the head doing that

[tiny laurel]

" there is always one more "

[bold kernel]

yeah i should have stayed hiding two minutes longer or something

i had good position too but

damn

[tiny laurel]

Geared people rarely go out alone, too scared, I usually do a wide flank when I down one

[bold kernel]

yeah

it maybe was his buddy

maybe not

he flanked me

[tiny laurel]

By the time I finish flanking I most often see them turning their back on me still looking at the place I was when I killed the first one

[bold kernel]

😄

its funny to hear grenades exploding in the place i previously proned at when i have ran away for 100-200meters flanking some guy

[tiny laurel]

That's when you know you re facing shaky sweaty bois fearing for their gear and asscheeks clapping hola

[bold kernel]

https://tenor.com/view/spiderman-jjonah-jameson-laugh-laughing-lol-gif-4596905

[tiny laurel]

Man's looking extremely hard at his sight hoping you'll jump in it

[slim quest]

I'd rather be playing tarkov compared to all these applications

[bold kernel]

i have seen that shit once

[slim quest]

adulting sucks

[tiny laurel]

Not gonna lie it happens to me quite often also xd

[bold kernel]

what is adulting?

i am 32 years this year and can play tarkov all day long

[slim quest]

I hid in a bush after killing a scav to check a map

and a new player run up and started looting

[bold kernel]

just kidding im on a temp. retirement

[slim quest]

it was less than a minute after I shot him lol

easy kill, poor guy

[tiny laurel]

X)

[bold kernel]

lol

sometimes i should just go in a 1 bush for whole 30 minutes

shoot some guy and wait other to go check up on the corpse and shoot them and the ones that follow after and so on

but i have no patience

[tiny laurel]

There s no "poor guy" to me haha,
I get in any raid with the mentality that I gave up the gear and life already, as did every other, but I can make something out of it if i play it fine

That's how you farm scavs in customs / factor y tbh

[bold kernel]

once i was alt+tabbing with scav and looking the internets for something and heard guys running past me when i was proning in a bush and i killed 2 scavs trying to exit map, so i was accidentally exit camping when i killed them

[tiny laurel]

In reserve in the Barracks also

Yeh classic

[slim quest]

I mean

[tiny laurel]

Classic snake sneak

[slim quest]

everyone wants to kill me, so I don't feel bad beating them to it

[tiny laurel]

Yes exactly

It's you or them

[bold kernel]

its funny how people want to chase you more when u have pmc gear on

[tiny laurel]

Let it be them

[slim quest]

also the comtacs are so useful

[bold kernel]

sometimes pmc's spot me as a scav and see my poor gear and i manage to run away easier than as a pmc

[slim quest]

just being able to hear that guy who accidentally brushed up against a bush or tree

[tiny laurel]

@bold kernel yeh but then if you didn't aggros the scavs you can bait them in

[bold kernel]

oh

yeah

so i should just run to scav spawning area

[slim quest]

sometimes during scav runs I like to hang out with scavs

[bold kernel]

hmm a new tactic

[naive atlas]

You can have scavs follow you as a pscav

[bold kernel]

find a scav boss and go nearby taunt enemy pmc's and drag em in

666

maybe ill do this next match

scav timer is almost 0mins

[tiny laurel]

If you know the guy saw you, you can try and bait him to other scavs , eventually sneak around a scav boss so he gets detected by not you

[slim quest]

won't scav bosses shoot pscavs

[naive atlas]

Scav bosses are hostile to player scavs

[bold kernel]

😐

[tiny laurel]

Don't get aggroed by the boss tho, they are hostile from the start even if you re scav, same for his goons and the raiders

[bold kernel]

well damn

didnt know this

[naive atlas]

The guards give you a warning if you get close

[tiny laurel]

Oh ok, didn't know that

[naive atlas]

But the boss itself will just straight up kill you

[bold kernel]

customs only scav boss spawns at gas station?

[tiny laurel]

Nope

Also can be in the dorms

[bold kernel]

whats wrong with the map that im looking at

where do i see updated maps

?

[tiny laurel]

Idk maps with all boss spawns

[bold kernel]

https://i.redd.it/zmanfyd558841.png

im looking at this rn

[tiny laurel]

I just know I killed him once

[slim quest]

oof customs

hate customs

[tiny laurel]

It's fine tho

[bold kernel]

@slim quest what is ur fav map

i have only played customs and shoreline now

havent even tried the other ones

and im level 10

[tiny laurel]

I'd suggest you d learn a bit of reserve or interchange at least for your scav runs

[bold kernel]

mmkay

[tiny laurel]

Those maps have way more loots, especially reserve

[slim quest]

rn shoreline

but interchange is fun

if I could extract

I'd enjoy interchange more

[tiny laurel]

I cld prob do it on interchange aswell but I have an afk strat on reserve scav lol for when I got chores to do

[bold kernel]

maybe ill go reserve then

what is afk strat

away from keyboard strategY?

[tiny laurel]

Yeah

[bold kernel]

explain it to me like im an idiot

[tiny laurel]

Start the raid
Hide somewhere you can :
-hear people/ai coming in
-pick ai coming in 1by1

Sit there with enough sound to hear from the kitchen

Come back when only 5-8 mins left, check the boss locations for dead bodies and run with the loot

[static carbon]

ffs i have to figure how the hell to survive at this game...except a few times it seems theres always someone waiting for me XD

[tiny laurel]

If you finish the chores early you can try to peak and see if raiders are around, if they are, bait them in your place and pick them 1by1 around an angle, they re dumb as sh**

[sour plume]

I almost feel like making a new account but idk what I'd do on it

[tiny laurel]

Red brick tower on reserve works very well for that thanks to the metallic stairs

@sour plume why not just reset

[sour plume]

I don't want to actually lose all my progress

But at the same time all of the later tasks are so boring/grindy

[tiny laurel]

Sell your whole stash and fill it again

[slim quest]

tbh if you want the fresh start feeling

that's the way to go

[sour plume]

I've done that a few times because I needed space, haven't done it since getting eod

[slim quest]

otherwise what's the point of working on a new account if you still want to progress your current one

[tiny laurel]

@static carbon take less obvious ways and scout the exits more before you go there

[slim quest]

alright, off to bed

way too late

[tiny laurel]

Gn

[slim quest]

have fun all

[sour plume]

also having my current account would let me still play with friends without being in lvl 1 trader gear lul

[bold kernel]

Start the raid
Hide somewhere you can :
-hear people/ai coming in
-pick ai coming in 1by1

Sit there with enough sound to hear from the kitchen

Come back when only 5-8 mins left, check the boss locations for dead bodies and run with the loot
@tiny laurel what? check the boss locations for dead bodies ? what if somebody else looted them

[tiny laurel]

Most likely they couldn't take everything

1 boss + 4 goons

[bold kernel]

oh

[tiny laurel]

5 weapons /rig / bag

[bold kernel]

so i should loot leftovers like usually i do

[tiny laurel]

Even better gear I you find the raiders bodies

Yeh, like a true rat

er...

[bold kernel]

when i spawn into game as a scav and theres like only 18mins left usually theres corpses around with only leftovers nothing else left

[fickle kettle]

Custom ?

[tiny laurel]

Scav

Check dorms and gas station in that situation

[bold kernel]

and i can run around freely, mostly

[tiny laurel]

@fickle kettle any map but I do it on reserve mostly

[bold kernel]

i always check gas station

not with pmc tho

[fickle kettle]

Being a rat is not a bad idea

[sour plume]

what's the best way to do the pmc flashbang kills? factory office hallway?

[bold kernel]

rat life 4 life

[tiny laurel]

@sour plume any cqb hot spot
Customs - dorms
Factory - office
Etc

[sour plume]

people usually fly away from grenades though idk how im gonna manage to blind someone and then kill them

i feel like 9/10 times they're just gonna run out into me and die anyways

[mint hawk]

@sour plume that's the easy one

How about blind yourself and then get pmc kills

[bold kernel]

how to verify?

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel eh? You already blue

[bold kernel]

was asking for a friend

is Reserve not popular? seems quite a time to match

[mint hawk]

#521628660298678283 #news-setup

[bold kernel]

customs and shoreline match much faster

[grim rampart]

if you had taken a break from the game, any tips what kind of maps to start with?

[bold kernel]

Shoreline is easiest in my experience with good loot

atleast for scavvin

[grim rampart]

ok any good keys for that map, oh

for pmc runs

[bold kernel]

dunno

why does reserve take so long to find match

ive been in queue for 6mins already

never have any match taken this long to find

[mint hawk]

@bold kernel high match means it very busy

[bold kernel]

u sure

[mint hawk]

It's looking for an open spot

@bold kernel pmc?

[bold kernel]

scav

took 8 mins it seems

im in match now

lots of shooting here lol

[mint hawk]

Yeah well everyone and their mother is trying to get into reserve as a scav

[ornate steppe]

How do I get the PMC role?

oh wait nvm

[mint hawk]

@ornate steppe

[ornate steppe]

was talking a sec ago and I didn't have it

[drifting garden]

this is where i ask for help correct? im struggling alot and would love some help :))

[cosmic juniper]

Do you need to meet all 3 loyalty lvl reqs or just one?

[tiny laurel]

@bold kernel reserve seem to be the most populated, hence longer queues

@drifting garden yes, ask

@drifting garden but first, go #news-setup and #521628660298678283 and click the things
So you will be able to see looking for group channels and vocal channels,
Also ask for a Sherpa (beginners guide)

[drifting garden]

i did both but still cant see anything.

[bold kernel]

what the f does this alarm sound mean in reserve?

[junior yacht]

someones rubberbanding so much i couldnt take a clear shot on them

the fuck?

the guy was literally teleporting back and forward for me

[tiny laurel]

@drifting garden thrn contact mods or wait a bit I think

[bold kernel]

WHAT IS THIS ALARM SOUND?

[tiny laurel]

LOL

There is an electric group you can turn on in Reserve

It stays on for 5 minutes during which the "bunker hermetic door" exit is usable

This exit it in the first open bunker on the left when at the train station and looking to the hangars

Alarm = PMC want to escape in the next 5 mins by this exact place

Also the alarm can spawn the scav boss and raiders

[bold kernel]

Can somebody tell me the value of bleach and wiper real quick for me

[tiny laurel]

12k and 7.5k respectively

Use eft-loot.com

[junior yacht]

are servers a bit laggy atm? player i spotted rubberbanded really hard back and forth, couldnt land a clear shot on him i died

[tiny laurel]

Can be , maybe just he lagged, maybe the server

If u have trouble shooting in auto or Novi stuff in the inventory, most likely server

[bold kernel]

lol

reserve was exciting

[fickle kettle]

First time ?

[bold kernel]

got something worth 200-300k

yeah

made it out alive

[naive atlas]

👌

[fickle kettle]

Isee isee

[tiny laurel]

Found the bodies ?

[bold kernel]

no

i found players

shot 1

1 ran away

looted the one i shot

[tranquil berry]

i have no idea what im doing

[tiny laurel]

Noice

[bold kernel]

this is what i got from first run on reserve

[tranquil berry]

should i wait for the scav mode to unlock first to play or should i just use main

[grim rampart]

pistol run and get used to maps

[bold kernel]

^

its exciting to play a map i dont know at all

[tranquil berry]

so im assuming just take the ammo next to the pistol and go for it

[cerulean pumice]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/94882524378968064/669864060753543188/Untitled.png

successful pistoling run

[tiny laurel]

@tranquil berry right click inspect, it will tell you what you need , either on the gun or the mag

[junior yacht]

nah wasnt having issues looting a stash before spotting i believe it was just that player who looked laggy as hell?

spotted him twice both times laggy

[tiny laurel]

Very possible

[tranquil berry]

i cant see the message that someone sent me

[junior yacht]

missed opportunity oh well

[tiny laurel]

Right click inspect, it will tell you what you need , either on the gun or the mag

Kroy

[tranquil berry]

yo

okay thank you

[tiny laurel]

Np

Also go in #news-setup and #521628660298678283 and click the things then you'll be able to see #pvp-lfg and vocal chats

Might want to get some infos on Sherpas to help you start

[sullen kindle]

I am not asking for a step by step method how to make profit, but long story short, is it worth looking into the Hideout upgrades and producing goods or perhaps the profit is really small that it doesn't matter ?

[tranquil berry]

i tried but its only pngs for me and i clicked the emoticons

[final meadow]

Recently I've started experiencing some weird hideout issues - I buy items needed for something I wanna craft, but then it doesn't update the items (even I have em in my stash) till I restart the game. Any workarounds?

[tiny laurel]

@sullen kindleits worth if you play everyday a lot id say

[grizzled fjord]

Is the sks less accurate after removing the rear sight?

[tranquil berry]

okay dw figured it out

AHAHAHA

[tiny laurel]

@grizzled fjord no, just harder to aim with

[sullen kindle]

I see

[grizzled fjord]

Alright, ty

[tiny laurel]

Accuracy in this game means that the bullet goes straight on the aimed point and far

Removing a sight doesn't make the bullet go on the side, only makes it harder for you to aim where you want it to go

[finite temple]

put your fov at 50

if your more then 50m from me i put the center above your head and you die

[tiny laurel]

Fov 50 is barely playable for me

[trim herald]

Not wholly true Know, there is an accuracy value on weapons that represent inherent inaccuracy in weapons. The further the distance the more the value matters. The round fired will hit somewhere in a circle based on the accuracy value and range

[tiny laurel]

Im used to 90+

[trim herald]

Muzzle velocity also plays a role

[tiny laurel]

Yeh deviation , I explained very poorly, but what I meant was removing a sight doesn't lower accuracy of the gun itself, just makes it harder to aim

[hearty sky]

hahahaha who the hell spawns in a scav run 7 minutes until the end xD

jeezus

i just spawned in 7 minutes 30 seconds till the end in Woods,

[trim herald]

Better get on moving to the exit

[hearty sky]

i had a nice strawl

the nature was beautifulz

fresh air

lavanders

[tiny laurel]

Hike simulator 2020

[hearty sky]

its comfirmed

BSG are making hiking simulator

we are all their lab rats

[trim herald]

It's due to the shortened raid times

[tiny laurel]

Hey someone's gotta make it

-10 mins on all maps will make it quite short, a bit too short imo
