tiny laurel

fallen crane
#

plus theyre on crack

#

insta headshot you across the map

tiny laurel
#

yeh i know them, the guy coming to speak to me is the second time happening and is quite confusing lol

clear bloom
#

This game sucks, why does it take several minutes to start games, why is the loot system so ridiculously unforgiving to the point where I'm playing a shooter with no guns, why does this game seem to have constant lag. This game isn't hardcore it's just poorly designed. Fuck this game it's off my computer

tiny laurel
#

cia

fallen crane
steady pilot
#

Lmao

thick holly
#

From the forum post where u request a sherpa: "If this is your first request you will receive a in game message with one of the following loadout kits :"
Made a request but no in game message
Does this really still work?

fallen crane
#

try wait a bit

steady pilot
tiny laurel
#

i doubt this would be automated, prob gotta wait for a sherpa to send it?

steady pilot
#

Theres a faq link

#

They are working on a better system

#

But sherpas are back logged right now

#

So may be a day or two before response

thick holly
#

I see
Back to the wiki/youtube studies and running in over and over ๐Ÿ˜„

steady pilot
#

Experience is best way ๐Ÿ‘Œ

thick holly
#

Aye

steady pilot
#

Watch pestily if you're not already

thick holly
#

Got his playlist lined up for today!

pliant cosmos
#

Did they remove the Flea Market wait period thingy?

tiny laurel
#

yes

pliant cosmos
#

Is there somewhere i can go for patch notes?

steady pilot
pliant cosmos
#

Doesn't say anything about the flea market change there

steady pilot
#

Yep

pliant cosmos
#

?

steady pilot
#

What you see

#

Is what they give

pliant cosmos
#

hmm okay

#

Thanks

unreal tulip
#

how do i put a sight on my aks

#

no sights i find are compatible

steady pilot
#

Several ways

last parrot
#

@unreal tulip You need a mount.

tiny laurel
#

get either a handguard or a dust cover that has a rail mount

steady pilot
#

B-13 mount, railed dustcover, tt01 iron sight fornsmall reflex

final nebula
#

would someone be willing to hop into a voice channel with me and help me with modding?

steady pilot
#

@final nebula I would but in bed. What's wrong

final nebula
#

i cant find how to put an underbarrel grip on my vepr km

clear stag
#

What's the difference between the Mosin carbine and sniper rifle?

steady pilot
#

@final nebula the ak100 handguard and slap a grip

final nebula
#

ok ty

steady pilot
#

@clear stag one has a straight bolt other has curved bolt

tribal cove
steady pilot
#

The curved can take optics

left vapor
#

or their twitter

tribal cove
#

@steady pilot cant you put a rail on the carabine?

chrome burrow
steady pilot
#

The mng rail fornred dots

#

That's it

pliant cosmos
#

@left vapor Thank you :)

balmy prism
#

new to the game any othe new players want to squad up ,so far only played custom

clear stag
#

so the infantry carbine is better when im doing this 10 scav kills w/o scope quest for jaeger

steady pilot
#

@balmy prism Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to unlock discord and be able to use #pvp-lfg. If you get a blue name you did it right. If for some reason it doesnt work, message the Contact Moderators bot for acess.

balmy prism
#

ok thanks

tiny laurel
#

@clear stag the shorter the gun, the more ergonomics it is, the less accurate it is, but the difference at 50 meters doesnt rly matter , more like 200 m

steady pilot
#

Short barrels also give lot more recoil

tribal cove
#

@chrome burrow ypu can spam it in cqb even if it is long, but at mid range you need to be careful with the recoil

steady pilot
#

On most guns it's not worth

tiny laurel
#

@clear stag so depends what you want, the mosin infantry and i believe carbone can't take the pu 3.5x scope, but can take adapters, the mosin sniper can take the pu scope

chrome burrow
#

@tribal cove aight thanks

clear stag
#

yea i need it to not have scope on for this quest so yea

steady pilot
#

@chrome burrow you should take that really bad and expensive suppressor off

tiny laurel
#

@clear stag at the end of the day all mosins shoot the same cartridge,which one are you gonna hit your shots with?

steady pilot
#

You can get a qd wave combo for 50k and it's best in slot

#

Multi caliber suppressor should never be used

#

No benefits and way expensive

chrome burrow
#

oh okay i didnt even look at that supressor cuz i killed a guy for taht gun

tiny laurel
#

rebuilding my bank after a night of instadeaths T.T

chrome burrow
#

how muich does that hybrid suppressor sell for?

bold kernel
#

I need help please

#

my backpack is glitched

#

its fading

tiny laurel
#

lag

bold kernel
#

how do i fix

tiny laurel
#

i think just wait or open / close inventory until the server catches up, maybe dc/relog

bold kernel
#

if i just close game

#

and reopen

#

will i rejoin a game

#

???

tiny laurel
#

if yo uare still alive you can rejoin the current raid

bold kernel
#

ok

tiny laurel
#

if you force close the game like at f4 that is

#

dont escape / leave

bold kernel
#

yh yh

chrome burrow
#

any big difference if ur character is over the weight limit

cloud glacier
#

did not notice one - but I believe you lose stamina faster

#

they will change the weight system soonTM so it will change anyway ;P

umbral latch
#

all items are found from games

#

they are never just

#

made from nowhere

#

so where do items like

#

thicc cases come from

#

originally

cloud glacier
#

not all items are from games

umbral latch
#

yea but how do people find thicc cases

cloud glacier
#

you can buy a lot of them from vendors

wet moss
#

i think all cases come from barters with the vendors

cloud glacier
#

thicc cases most people probably get from flea market - those do come from other players that either got them in raid or for example bartered for and want to make a profit selling

#

no - you can find cases in raid - I'm not certain if all of them spawn - but I did see people getting weapons case for example

umbral latch
#

ik about weapons caes

#

ammo

#

all the ones of lesser value

#

yea just looked at the wiki

#

i guess the first ones people get are from vendors

cloud glacier
#

ammo case also spawns

#

just checked it

umbral latch
#

ooo and quests

#

forgot about those

glass moon
#

should you strafe while ADS and shooting or stand still/crouch?

cloud glacier
#

it's just that those items have specific places that they spawn in (marked rooms for example) and more experienced players just know how to get them as soon as they get the proper keys (as long as RNG is on their side)

weary badge
#

Any way to disable music while in menu?

cloud glacier
#

@glass moon as with most combat answers - depends on the situation. Weapon you're using, your ability to use moving reticle properly, the need to be a harder target / get into close cover while suppressing enemy... there is no one answer ๐Ÿ™‚

mystic pasture
#

@glass moon there's no aim penalty to moving like csgo so if you can move and still aim where you need to hit it's better than standing still.

I find more often than not crouching during a straight up gunfight makes you slower and easier to hit

glass moon
#

so its not a flat out don't move and shoot like csgo got it

mystic pasture
#

Crocuhing to be more stealthy and ambush people is good

#

Yeah you won't just miss every shot while moving like in csgo

bold kernel
#

new player looking for people to play with

cloud glacier
#

@glass moon just be aware that without leveled skills and modded/proper weapons you will most probably be able to take fewer on-target shots while strafing - you will just not be able to get that reticle on the enemy as often as you like (when counting walk bobbing and recoil)

long hazel
#

Why does the gun sells the same even with all the attachments and ammo?

cloud glacier
#

because you need to use flea market properly ๐Ÿ™‚

#

vendors count all mods etc

#

but when you go into flea market filtered by the weapon - you just get offers for stock version

#

you need to make adjustments to the price yourself based on mods etc

#

so there are players that do not know that - and they sell way to low

long hazel
#

but why it costs the same when I want to sell it to trader

cloud glacier
#

really? then I have messed something out

#

I blame it on bad sleep today ๐Ÿ˜„

#

just make it a habit to remove valuable mods before selling then ๐Ÿ™‚

long hazel
#

same with mods

cloud glacier
#

it's usefull habit in the field also - to take ony valuable parts from enemy weapon that is otherwise not so valuable (scopes / suppressors)

#

yeah - my bad then - just disregard first thing I said and go into selling it by parts ๐Ÿ™‚

long hazel
#

so they dont care

left vapor
#

it's a VPO supressor

bold kernel
#

new player here not sure where to post but looking for people to play with?

left vapor
#

you won't get much for it anyways I think

long hazel
#

when I want to buy a gun does it come with some mods or always naked like in 1st pic ?

indigo apex
#

From vendors unmodded. Flea market you have to check.

cloud glacier
#

you can inspect any thing that you are about to buy - both from vendors and from flea market

left vapor
long hazel
#

Ok, thanks guys

bold kernel
#

ok ty

cloud glacier
#

@long hazel and vendors sell specific gun setups - those do not change (you get more on higher vendor levels but the old ones stay the same)... on the flea market you do need to check what you buy - but with some experience you'll be able to see almost everything from the weapon image alone (it does reflect the build)

long hazel
#

Hopefully ๐Ÿ˜› I know nothing about guns

naive lion
#

wiki says the door is always open

cloud glacier
#

Well tarkov won't make you an expert... but if you stick to it you'll know a lot more than you thought you ever will ๐Ÿ˜„

#

@naive lion I don't know that area to tell you if the door is open always... but that key is worth about 65k on flea market... so it must be able to get you some loot not available otherwise

naive lion
#

hmm

#

it sells for 65 to therapist too

#

maybe thats why?

#

I'll go offline and check it out

#

brb

cloud glacier
#

hmm... maybe that's it

#

my go-to page tells me there is nothing in that room spawning

#

let me check the maps

limpid pendant
#

just filter by item in flea if its worth 50k+ its worth keeping, if not toss it

naive lion
#

a reddit post from 2 years ago says the room is empty too

long hazel
naive lion
#

and always open

limpid pendant
#

could be for a mission maybe?

cloud glacier
#

my wiki does not mark it as a quest item

long hazel
#

can sell it to other traders

#

ok, had to refresh I think, can sell now ๐Ÿ˜›

cloud glacier
#

it seems that key is worth so much only because you can sell it for so much to the therapist

#

interesting

naive lion
#

its been like that for 2 years lmao

languid flare
#

If you took it out from somewhere while in the trader menu it sometimes 'glitches' (?) @long hazel

long hazel
#

Uh ok

cloud glacier
#

maybe it's some removed quest or preparation for future one that came to live build by mistake ?

#

because 325 is always open... does not seem to have any interesting loot... and the only other room that is connected to it (326) is also empty (and always open) from the maps

naive lion
#

I guess its just an easy 65k roubles

#

thanks

meager sedge
#

ANy 1 know if Sp-6 or 7n9 Spp is better for val?

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.
All the data displayed below is the produ...

#

@meager sedge scroll down to the table with values

karmic meadow
#

Is it worth producing the red powder with 1 blue and 1 green?

#

looks like it's the same price at the flea

cloud glacier
#

if you need it for something... maybe? but not really for profit (remember you'll lose tax on the flea market offer)

open lotus
#

for skiers supplier task do i need 3M body armour? or any

cloud glacier
#

@open lotus yeah - Module-3M

open lotus
#

should i buy it from flea or try to find it?

cloud glacier
#

whatever floats your boat ๐Ÿ™‚

#

flea market is certainly faster

open lotus
#

i dont have that much money tho ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

cloud glacier
#

then there is your answer ๐Ÿ™‚ either first find a way to earn money reliably - then start buying for such quests... or try to find those right now - but remember that you then carry 6 slots of that bad armor (that you won't even sell) instead of extracting with something more valuable

#

and it's VERY easy to get loot that takes 6 slots in your inventory that will get you enough roubles for two of those (at least)

#

oh wow... i just checked and it takes up not 6 slots but 9!!!

#

yeah ;P

steel prism
#

starting out in this game is so much fun yet soooo stressful lol

fervent tide
#

is it possible anymore to get into a match with less than the displayed pcm number on map selection? like with no other pcm spawning

cloud glacier
#

@fervent tide don't know how it's been in the pre twitch event times. But right now I'd be suprised if you got a match without max possible PMC players (or close to)

fickle kettle
#

@fervent tide i think you cant

fervent tide
#

ah ok

cloud glacier
#

and I'm willing to bet you cannot ever get a match without minimal PMC players for that map (varies per map)

#

BUT... after first 10 minutes there is usually few less PMC on the map ;P

karmic meadow
#

money case is 2x2 right

cloud glacier
#

had a game yesterday where FOUR 2-man squads spawned close to each other... 6 PMC dead on top of each other basically before 5th minute of the game ๐Ÿ˜‰

#

@karmic meadow no - 2x3

naive lion
#

is there a map with all the key use locations for customs?

cloud glacier
#

@naive lion don't know any with ALL of them - but most of the keys on customs are in dorms - and this map is quite nice for it:

open lotus
#

where do i find a gas analyzer?

naive lion
#

thanks

#

I found one in a random filling cabinet

#

on reserve

#

so maybe its random?

cloud glacier
#

it can be found randomly... but I do believe there are places that have much higher chance to find one

sage nacelle
#

ghello comrads does anyone want to play and explain this game thanks in regards

cloud glacier
sage nacelle
#

cant see that chat ;-;

cloud glacier
sage nacelle
#

cheers lad

fast rivet
#

yeah, found a gas analyzer in a cache, after days trying to find one lmao

tribal cove
#

Easiest map or place to find morphine syringes?

cloud glacier
#

@tribal cove as far as I know easiest (as in - loot spawns) place to find meds is resort on shoreline... not so easy enemy-wise

#

but I do not have a lot of experience on other maps... so maybe there are better places for that

wet moss
#

5 seconds too late to extract, man im a pro

open lotus
#

omg i just did my first scav interchange run and spawned with a labs keycard

bold kernel
#

does anyone have any good loadouts I can use with my low level traders?

half jackal
#

@bold kernel Vepr KM + your choice of armor

bold kernel
#

alright, thanks, I will give it a go

half jackal
#

Use PS ammo - if you have access to flea market you should be able to get a nice loadout

#

otherwise its pretty awkward

cloud glacier
#

until you get 5th level (and flea market) you can easily go with that green army helmet from ragman and thb either no armor (or Uley armored rig if you can barter for it with ragman)... or just pick armor from scav runs

fast rivet
#

everyone underestimates the 136

cloud glacier
#

PACA armor that you can buy from ragman is basically a paper protection... maybe usable against some AI SCAVs but not much more

open lotus
cloud glacier
#

did you get out or got a heart attack ?;)

open lotus
#

got out

#

and had a heart attack

cloud glacier
#

good run then ๐Ÿ™‚

unreal tulip
#

the interchange server i was on just crashed as i killed a geared guy

open lotus
#

F

#

should i sell the key to therapist

#

and how much should i list keycard for?

cloud glacier
#

do you intend to go labs anywhere in the close future ? ๐Ÿ˜›

open lotus
#

nope

half jackal
#

@open lotus 180k on flea

cloud glacier
#

ah... the key for the sanatorium I'd keep if you don't have it - it will become usefull eventually (unless you REALLY need to money NOW)

#

but the keycard for the labs I'd sell - it's a deathtrap for new players anyway

#

including my ass ๐Ÿ˜„

open lotus
#

this is 180k right 180000

#

lol

cloud glacier
#

yes - k == additional 3 zeroes ;P

#

or more preciselly k = thousand ๐Ÿ˜‰

open lotus
#

i dont wanna mess up and put 18k

#

it got sold instantly

bold kernel
#

is anyone else having trouble matching? theres such a long time to wait

cloud glacier
#

try changing your servers to "auto" in the launcher

open lotus
#

my matching is quick untill it becomes evening

cloud glacier
#

you're basically not having problem matching... you're having problem finding a server that has free place for you

bold kernel
#

oh okays

compact moth
#

Do i report bugs in the launcher or where exactly?

bold kernel
#

that makes sense

open lotus
#

for skier 3M quest does the armor need to be fully repaired?

tiny laurel
#

no

bold kernel
#

ok I need somebody to literally guide me, I can't do this quest. I am still doing Punisher 4, kill scavs in woods with shotgun. What did you guys do precisely? Where did you go? What weapon and loadout did you use? Did you use 2 weapons, the shotty for scavs and one backup for pmcs?

half jackal
#

@bold kernel Saiga + AP20

#

slap a valday or something on it

bold kernel
#

When I play woods I usually immediately try to move for my exit and kill scavs on the way, but lately 1) I've been finding NO scavs, 2) I get rekt by pmcs so quickly and only have a saiga to defend myself, so I die everytime

half jackal
#

spend an extra 60k on NVGs and try night

bold kernel
#

I've been in PVE woods 3 times and only encountered 1 scav

half jackal
#

theres usually tons around scav house

#

or check point

bold kernel
#

I was there 3 times

#

and 1 time there was a pmc camping and he killed me, too

trim herald
#

@open lotus The rule of thumb with any key is, if you are going to use it immediately, keep it. Otherwise sell it

bold kernel
#

so IDK why scavs aren't spawning, and why I am encountering so many PMCs

trim herald
#

Scavs don't spawn in until 20 min or whatever into the map

open lotus
#

on wiki it says the key is useless as the room is always unlocked

bold kernel
#

No way I've found scavs way before the 20min mark on woods

trim herald
#

Not many though

open lotus
#

and says behind the lock there is nothing

trim herald
#

Ah yeah, 322 is a bait key

#

Though it was 22

#

2

#

Which is a good key

naive lion
#

damnit I just traded hits with another player and we both died

bold kernel
#

So what you have personally done is camp old train station?

trim herald
#

Nah, I tend to push up to dickhead

tepid kernel
#

hi i need a little help

trim herald
#

And grab scavs in sawmill

tepid kernel
#

i can't seem to level up

trim herald
#

Stop doing offline and scav raids

#

You only get xp in PMC raids

bold kernel
#

doesn't the boss spawn in sawmill?

trim herald
#

He can do yes

long hazel
tepid kernel
#

even with PMC it says i escaped to earlie

bold kernel
#

Do you think its better to take a shit shotty and some buckshot to have easy scav kills and if I die I lose virtually nothing?

#

like bringing no armor no helmet etc.

trim herald
#

No

#

@long hazel That's their rating

long hazel
#

and whats the point of selling items 6 times cheaper on flea market?

trim herald
#

@tepid kernel Because you didn't do anything that gets you xp

#

You need to kill or loot to get xp

#

Or heal I guess

long hazel
#

@trim herald uh ok. whats the point of this ?

trim herald
#

More rep, more auctions at the same time

waxen forge
#

@tepid kernel It's based on XP not time

tepid kernel
#

@trim herald thanks will try that

trim herald
long hazel
#

so rating gives you more slots?

trim herald
#

Yes

#

Less relevant now without the 1 min timer on auctions

#

But it was really fucking nice when you came back from a loot run and could list everything without having to wait ๐Ÿ˜„

long hazel
#

ok, I have a scope worth 6k, why are people selling the same scope for 1k ?

trim herald
#

They dumb?

#

๐Ÿ˜„

waxen forge
#

Either they are stupid or maybe it was 1k US dollars

#

Also break weapon into parts and sell to Skier then rest to mechanic....

#

Not worth the time selling basic weapons on flea

long hazel
#

uh ok, weird

waxen forge
#

Maybe optics and suppressors but not weapons

half jackal
#

I list fuel conditioners for 89k on flea when I know I can get 92k from therapist

#

i like collecting money from ragman all at once though

mossy meadow
#

is there some stamina level where it regens fastest?

trim herald
#

51

long hazel
#

@waxen forge Whats worth selling ? Im pretty new

trim herald
#

51 Endurance

half jackal
#

everything you dont need

trim herald
#

Is where it's regening the fastest

long hazel
#

i mean, on the market

waxen forge
#

Honestly I don't sell weapons on flea. I save that for Tech/hardware items that the flea beats therapist for.

half jackal
#

everything except guns and gold/tech/special items

trim herald
#

Sell barter goods on Flea

#

Or armour that's fucked

waxen forge
#

Check flea price then Therapist>Skier>mechanic

#

Check therapist though because she pays more for some barter/task/hideout items that the flea does

long hazel
#

Ok, will do. So Skier for weapon parts and mechanic for weapons.

mossy meadow
#

so to maximize sprint time i should stop at half and let it regen?

waxen forge
#

Just break the weapon into parts and start with Skier...then sell his whatever he will buy...then move to mechanic and sell the rest

trim herald
#

I mean I would, because being caught without stamina is a bad thing

mossy meadow
#

it's not an issue

trim herald
#

But there's no difference in regen speed until you hit lvl 51 endurance

long hazel
#

ok, thanks

half jackal
#

he thinks 51 = 51/100 stamina

trim herald
#

And then it doubles

mossy meadow
#

ah

#

lvl 51

#

oh my god

#

it's like 2 months of running?

half jackal
#

just dont worry about it

#

your max stamina will increase as it levels and you'll be able to run a flat % longer

trim herald
#

51 Endurance is broken as balls though

long hazel
#

whats up with Alyonka on flea market?

trim herald
#

You have like double stamina, and it regens to full in 5 sec

cloud glacier
#

@long hazel it's a barter item for something sensible - that's where the high price comes from

trim herald
#

It's used in hideout crafting for sugar

mighty jasper
#

What are some recommended sights for the VSS besides the x1's?

half jackal
#

and sugar is used for moonshine

long hazel
#

uh ok

main heron
#

Hello could sb help me becasue idk why i cant connect this Jail Break With 20" barell

cloud glacier
#

and that ;P

half jackal
#

@mighty jasper Monstrum 2x (but its actually a 3x)

trim herald
#

@main heron Because it doesn't go on the 20" barrel

mighty jasper
#

@half jackal Care to elaborate?

#

Wym 3x?

half jackal
#

@mighty jasper Monstrum sight

trim herald
#

@mighty jasper You don't need anything else than a 1x, as the gun is much weaker at longer ranges

half jackal
#

its advertised as a 2x sight but its actual magnification in-game is 3x

waxen forge
#

@main heron Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup so you can get the PMC role and see all of Discord. IF it doesnโ€™t work can PM the contact moderator bot for help. Upgrade Workbench in Hideout. Then go to flea and examine every weapon and weapon part. That will give you full functionality of the EDIT PRESET function. You can swap parts in and out at will and the parts do not need to be in stash to use this feature as this is a โ€œvirtual build.โ€ If you like what you made you can โ€œsaveโ€ it with a custom name and it will allow you to buy all the parts with the Assemble puzzle piece. Use cog wheel in buy parts section to determine if you only buy from traders or include flea offers.

half jackal

its still effective out to like 50-80m

mighty jasper
#

@half jackal is that a bug?

half jackal
#

which is where monstrum shines

#

its just a somewhat lazy implementation

mighty jasper
#

@trim herald I know its subsonic, but its for the sake of comfort

Not that easy to aim at a target from 100m with a 1x

pliant cosmos

my tasks won't load(they did like 15mins ago), if i click tasks it just freezes

most people won't even zero their weapon properly to 100m... so yeah

long hazel

Is it normal that I die but didnt hear shots at all? (was quite wounded)

mighty jasper

@half jackal I'll look into it, do I need some specific mount to put it on the vss?

half jackal

use SVD Low sidemount

or B-33

@waxen forge hmm might be the case @cloud glacier pretty sure I had bandage on

cloud glacier
#

@long hazel or had thorax or head at 0hp (after bloodloss) and decided to run with blackened leg? any dmg source after you hit 0hp on head or thorax from bloodloss will kill you I think

long hazel
#

@cloud glacier Head was fine, dont remember thorax, lost leg and arm and couldnt run or jump or else I took damage I think

trim herald
#

Or you got sniped from far away

cloud glacier
#

yeah - suppressed shot is more probable I'd say - just pointing out some uncommon ways to go

wet moss
#

how do u pick up a backpack on the ground?

bold kernel
#

I just got a scav with a vss so I went on interchange and killed this guy with a m4a1

#

this game gives me such an adrenaline rush

#

is it worth me keeping it? or should I sell it?

cloud glacier
#

@wet moss you either need to have a place for it in your backapck... or first drop your (smaller I assume) backpack - and pick the bigger one - the take what you need from your old backpack - or pick it fully if you have the space

wet moss
#

i have space

vital igloo
#

Took yours peps advice last night and made like 800k lol

wet moss
#

but like

#

it doesnt give me an option to pick it up

#

it just searches it

cloud glacier
#

@wet moss hmm... I am not sure then - do you know that backapack that you want to pick? (have you identified one in the past)... sometimes weird interactions can be blocked until you identify the item for the first time

wet moss
#

i found out

#

i had to drop my bigger pack

#

pick up smaller

#

then put the smaller in the bigger

#

then pick up bigger

#

i was tryin to just put the smaller one in my big pack

cloud glacier
#

weird... but maybe that's how it goes with on-ground backpacks... did not have many interaction with such

wet moss
#

and it wouldnt let me

waxen forge
#

Yea when stacking in raid you have to drop the bigger, pick up the smaller, search the bigger, put the smaller into the bigger, then pick up the stack

glass moon
#

if a round penetrates armor does it also dmg it?

reef spoke
#

yes

wet moss
#

it took me like 3 minutes to finally figure that out, budracin... all just so I could pick up a fuel container

#

LOL

#

only had room in the smaller bag that was inside the bigger

waxen forge
#

But you learned so that is a victory

wet moss
#

but it wouldnt pick up that way

waxen forge
#

That's weird. The bigger bag had been examined? You can't equip something to your body if it hasn't been examined first (another positive of examining stuff on flea so you can equip and save time in raid)

#

Otherwise it may have been a bug.

wet moss
#

ya they were examined

waxen forge
#

Must have been bugged

wet moss
#

I had the bigger bag on, full, and a smaller bag inside that and it had room for the container

#

but the container was on its own (not in a container) and it wouldnt go in the second bag

#

didnt seem like it should so i wasnt bothered with that

waxen forge

Yea normally you would be able to pick it up

According to the wiki I am facing exit pointed in the "double-tap-o" and it's closed

cloud glacier

@sudden bridge You mean as: escape at least once on any map ?

waxen forge
#

Oh wait...yea I just woke up @half jackal Is totally right. If you have a backpack inside a backpack and there is space in the internal bag and you find something on the ground you won't be able to pick it up

#

Would have to drop the inside backpack...pick up the big item

#

Search the backpack you dropped

#

Move it from the one you are wearing and then pick up the stack again

half jackal

you'll have to toss the smaller bag - pick up item - search bag & place item - pick up smaller bag

@waxen forge I think it's to far for new player still learning that exits can be closed - especially with that annoying wall and closed factory guardhouse

i guess u could camp it pretty easy

yeah thats what i did @waxen forge but i ran into someone sadly...

waxen forge

My perspective but I choose to not waste my time walking out of my way to find out if an exit is open or not

bold kernel

i had trailer park as extract

so i had to cross bridge

i got a key because of that factory door lol

i hate runnin around the wall

especially if i get a spawn inside factory close to the door

Not only a shotgun its a shit weapon, but woods is full of PMCs that kill every scav from range, essentially giving you no kills, and leaving you extremely vulnerable, because what will a saiga do at mid-long range against a silenced SKS camper

i cant even find out how much this fuel is worth... so many empty containers up

That's like 100 slugs per run

waxen forge
#

@sudden bridge First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesnโ€™t matter how much or how well you do in other shooters. This is a knowledge game. You will die and die due to lack of experience not gear. Experience. It will require persistence and commitment. You need to learn maps, scav behavior, PMC behavior, what is good vs. bad ammo. Practice OFFLINE mode, with scavs on, at Customs. Try to make it from spawn to exit 10 times. IF you can do this 50% of the time then you are ready for online. Meanwhile use your scav at Interchange to get loot and learn the map.

@bold kernel Use edit preset ๐Ÿ˜„

bold kernel

still the main problem isn't the ammo cost or usage, its the other PMCs, that are everywhere and kill every scav from range, giving me no chance, and killing me

waxen forge
#

@bold kernel Upgrade Workbench in Hideout. Then go to flea and examine every weapon and weapon part. That will give you full functionality of the EDIT PRESET function. You can swap parts in and out at will and the parts do not need to be in stash to use this feature as this is a โ€œvirtual build.โ€ If you like what you made you can โ€œsaveโ€ it with a custom name and it will allow you to buy all the parts with the Assemble puzzle piece. Use cog wheel in buy parts section to determine if you only buy from traders or include flea offers.

@karmic meadow Buy armour from him, sell it back

Or if you need to level Skier too, buy from Ragman and sell to Skier

karmic meadow

He only sells PACA tho

shrewd bobcat

@onyx hollow Choose one pair and stick to it I guess. Sordins seems to be the best for people and IMO I agree with that but in terms of bullet positioning you just learn it over time.

PACA and the penis helmet

But you can buy rigs from him

Hmm sure, but I need like 800k

buy mrig and ssh

And sell back to him

karmic meadow

@shrewd bobcat If I picked one I feel like I have to queue with a good player so he can let me know how far sounds are, so I can actually learn. Am I correct in thinking this?

by playing

karmic meadow

And what do I do when I hit the refill limit?

half jackal

also

shrewd bobcat

Hm yeah true, it's more learning about when the shots are close and when they are far. If they're far, don't really need to worry on customs, if close you should worry.

half jackal
#

figure out what 100m is in real life

and apply it to the game

shrewd bobcat

half jackal

you should be able to pretty easily eyeball the general range if its below like 200-300m

onyx hollow
#

Is it actually that accurate?

cloud glacier
#

@onyx hollow And before you get a feel for the distance - you can check if there is a hot zone in that direction... most of the shots are from common places

half jackal
#

its scaled decently

onyx hollow

Hot zone = scav spawn?

hot zone - places where there is either scav patrol or common looting places

So like if you're pushing to dorms, you're looking at the building and you hear shots, if you don't know which direction you can turn your head around quickly and the sound will move with your head either getting quiter or louder, chances are if you hear shooting when you're walking up to dorms it's in dorms.

well that is not the proper definition... but that is what i meant ;P

wispy perch

how much is AESA on the market? anyone can check real quick or know right away?

onyx hollow
#

@shrewd bobcat I do this already

#

I might just hang around dorms then

#

Closer and further

#

So I know how far shots are bc they'd most likely be dorms

#

Big brain?

shrewd bobcat

How geared are you?

@onyx hollow Hop in Beginners assistance 2 I'll help you

Is there some trick that allows you to craft by using specific items? For example I have 2 empty fuel tanks and 2 full ones, I'd like to craft from empty ones but it keeps selecting the full ones.

@fallen hollow have you tried checking linked search ?

#

is the kiba key worth it?

cloud glacier
#

#

one sells for 90-100k and the other for 1 mil

Is there a way to fix this bug so I can open up a sale slot? Tried restarting

low meadow
#

yea i know but is it worth it

bold kernel
#

im finding running a modded vepr not that good for my interchange runs, ammo is very expensive.. any other suggestions

#

?

low meadow
#

ak74m @bold kernel

cloud glacier
#

you mean if you can get it's cost from whatever it opens? I don't really know... but there are only 2 reasons for something be valuable on the flea market - either it is worth it (or noone would buy it at that price and it would drop)... or you can sell that thing for the exact price to some of the vendors

bold kernel
#

what ammo is that

karmic meadow
#

How come I've followed the gunsmith part 4 wiki page and I'm at 66 ergo instead of 67?

frozen talon
#

If you go cheap on ammo youre gonna start struggling

#

Bams, its the stock

low meadow
#

@bold kernel 5.45x39mm BP is good 247 per bullet

frozen talon
#

@karmic meadow You have the m7a1 pdw stock?

low meadow
#

what can you find inside that makes it so expensive

tribal cove

#

bp cant penetrate through that well.

karmic meadow

at lvl 5-6 its shit.

#

at lvl 4 it struggles.

tribal cove
#

@bold kernel u talking about 5.56x39?

low meadow
#

no i have killed guys with level 5

bold kernel
#

yeah

low meadow
#

bp is good for the price

#

and amour levels

tribal cove
#

Then yea, I use BS

bold kernel
#

well do u know of a good modding for the ak74m?

frozen talon
#

@karmic meadow Looks like wrong gas block

bold kernel
#

thats somewhat cheap

karmic meadow
#

@karmic meadow Looks like wrong gas block
@frozen talon I followed the guide by letter

low meadow
#

my ak74m has 64 recoil it costs around 55k with lvl 3 traders

bold kernel
#

frozen talon
#

take the lpa2f off

low meadow
#

cloud glacier
#

@low meadow did not use the the kiba keys but according to wiki they open a weapons shop on interchange

frozen talon
#

The front ironsight

cloud glacier
#

so you can imagine there might be a lot of valuable things there

karmic meadow
#

screenshot from the wiki page

#

front iron sight only changes the weight

also the build on the wiki shows 70 of ergo, while I'm at 66

@low meadow 5.45 BP is garbage

#

If you can't afford BS for a 5.45 platform, use a different platform

bold kernel
#

thats what i was thinking..

low meadow
#

bp is great for me

bold kernel
#

that ammo pen. looks horrible

trim herald
#

I mean it's not

#

But ok

cloud glacier
#

@low meadow it will work depending on the situation - but the first time you meet someone geared properly you will not do much

low meadow
#

i have killed people with the killa amour with bp

rich cloak
#

it works

low meadow
#

thats level 5

vale arrow
#

their armor was probably busted already

rich cloak
#

but tits not good

frozen talon
#

You can kill someone with 10 pen ammo

#

Doesnt make it good

#

killa ammo has gaps under arms

bold kernel
#

Looking for a sponsor to gear me up on a raid, thank you. Its an investment and we can become friends

frozen talon
#

errr armor

cloud glacier
#

never said you cannot kill ppl with it... the thing is you may need 4-5 times more the ammo... or good % of hs

trim herald
#

Either that armour was already really low, you hit head, or you hit the guy 15 times in the chest and he was afk

bold kernel
#

u can kill someone with a BB gun.. just depends how bad they are, if their bad they will usually not notice u and just die if their good theyll actually kill u cause they have better ammo

trim herald
#

Or you're lying

bold kernel
#

its more of how long it takes u to eliminate someone.

trim herald
#

The ammo is garbage

#

It's a mathematical fact

bold kernel
#

it could be 3 bullets instead of 15 bullets if u get good ammo

trim herald
#

Now you can use it if you want, it's your game, but that doesn't change that

#

But suggesting to any beginner that they can use it and it's ok is either trolling or you're just playing a lot of Customs with t5+ armour

#

And want to farm people who can't kill you

cloud glacier
#

basically - if you're able to kill people with BP - you would kill them in just a fraction of time with BS (that means them not shooting at you for that time)

half jackal
#

He is right - all ammo is usable - but not all engagements are in your favor, so its a dumb point to make

bold kernel
#

i mean i honestly didnt consider that ammo at all.. ive learned how ammo makes a diffrence and i cant change my mind

trim herald
#

The hunter is a great budget platform if you can't afford BS ammo

half jackal
#

BT is fine

trim herald
#

M80 is cheap and deals with any ammo

#

Nah, BT is not fine either

half jackal
#

although you should probably just run 762 rifles instead

#

M80 sucks now

#

well

#

its still okay

trim herald
#

It's the best budget ammo

hearty crest
#

what helmet (that also allows earpieces) is the best one to use when i want an upgrade from the green bucket helmet

half jackal
#

I mean compared to what it was

trim herald
#

And it'll deal with lvl 5 armour in a few shots

#

It lost it's 1 shot potential

half jackal
#

it went from one-shotting level 5 to taking 3-5

trim herald
#

But it'll still 2 shot lvl 3+

cloud glacier
#

@hearty crest check Highcom Striker ACHHC IIIA

half jackal
#

sell it if you dont mostly run reserve

trim herald
#

If you're going to use it then keep it, if not sell it @craggy yew

#

You can always rebuy it later

@hearty crest Ulach

!wiki ulach

Get it in black though

Ulach is a little more expensive - but yes

You can sell it at any point @craggy yew

hearty crest
#

is there a trade for the ulach?

mystic pasture
#

I used BT for the Punisher AK quest and I had no trouble killing players while doin it. That being said I barely run into people using T5 armour. Like, not even the higher level people I kill so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ all I know is price is a factor for new players too, not just pen

trim herald
#

No, just cash

slate mesa
#

Hello, how do I mount a good scope on my AK74

cloud glacier
#

@craggy yew just keep those keys in the alpha container

mystic pasture
#

and if you're on customs where the majority of people I see at least are running T4. BT is ok. But generally, I wouldn't use the 5.45 as a beginner anyways

#

the rounds are generally more expensive

trim herald
#

Unlock the workbench and use edit preset @slate mesa

hearty crest
#

how much does ragman 4 sell it for?

trim herald
#

Even against lvl 4 BT is not great

half jackal
#

60k for tan

#

80k black

hearty crest
#

ah

half jackal
#

buy from flea

#

pls

trim herald
#

BS shits on BT against lvl 4, and even more so once you hit lvl 5

slate mesa
#

workbench? do I have to unlock that or something?

half jackal
#

BT isnt great against level 4

trim herald
#

Hideout

hearty crest
#

liek a damaged one?

trim herald
#

Don't buy damaged helmets

slate mesa
#

ah you said that^^ ok

trim herald
#

You're basically removing the point in using them in the first place

half jackal
#

ulach repairs fine

mystic pasture
#

Ive never had a trouble with BT dealing with T4 armour

trim herald
#

Yeah but the chance of it stopping rounds is based on it's durability compared to max

cloud glacier
#

@hearty crest you can get not damaged ones on flea also - just check farther pages

half jackal
#

BT is 37 pen

stone surge
#

aslong as ulach is around 35dura+

#

it's ok

half jackal
#

^

stone surge
#

below not so much

hearty crest
#

like 36.6/36.6 isnt that bad though right?

stone surge
#

i generally want my helmets 90% durability off their max

half jackal
#

36 is fine

trim herald
#

It's like a 50/50 chance iirc to stop a BT round with an ULACH for example

half jackal
#

since its missing like 4%

hearty crest
#

ye

harsh ibex
#

i just realised killa had a special armour

trim herald
#

There's a 2% chance of stopping a BS round

harsh ibex
#

when i killed killa i only took his helm cause i broke his armour :/

mystic pasture
#

Im not saying its better

stone surge
#

reflect is higher chance of stopping BS

trim herald
#

Worth taking his armour

stone surge
#

than the actual armor

#

when it's 2%

mystic pasture
#

Im saying raw pen is not the be all and end all of ammo choice for a new player

trim herald
#

It repairs to 58 if it's 0'd

#

It should be

harsh ibex
#

i feel dum now

mystic pasture
#

But like I said, if you're poor, dont run 5.45 anyways

trim herald
#

Or you're putting yourself into a serious disadvantage

half jackal
#

BT has 55% pen on Level 4

mystic pasture
#

In a white room scenario where you're taking a straight up gunfight yes

stone surge
#

BT is OK

mystic pasture
#

but that doesnt exist

trim herald
#

Oh ok

#

So just run PRS then

mystic pasture
#

Here we go again

trim herald
#

Because your argument is pointless

mystic pasture
#

No its not

stone surge
#

i hate BT mostly because it's tracer, but it quickly gains more chance vs tier 4 the more you shoot. it's just that BS doesn't need that ramp up

trim herald
#

It really is

stone surge
#

to pen

half jackal
#

honestly if you're poor - run 762

stone surge
#

SKS/Vepr KM + 7.62 PS is OK too

half jackal
#

vepr km + bp

stone surge
#

but 7.62 BP shouldn't be expensive

half jackal
#

still cheaper than 545 + mags

stone surge
#

you dont use much ammo with SKS for example

trim herald
#

Use BP, they're semi autos

stone surge
#

so why not 7.62 bp
