wispy finch
#

im done with all others

#

after trying for 3 days

floral ruin
#

your'e lvl 41 factory is half hatchlings, take your factory exit key and a fort armour

#

and an altyn

#

kill a hatchling then go for cellars

#

or gate 0

wispy finch
#

you need 300 exp to not get a run through

#

and a hatchling is 200 i believe

floral ruin
#

yeah a pmc kill

#

will get you it

wispy finch
#

weird

#

thought it needs 300 +

atomic knoll
#

A PMC headshot I think

wispy finch
#

and tbh ive seen more geared guys than hatchlings in factory

#

what he said

#

headshots give more xp

floral ruin
#

wait for ur 5 man then

wispy finch
#

prolly

#

but my logic is true tho right

#

if i go in as 5 man

#

then only 1 other pmc will be in map

floral ruin
#

yes

#

factory is 6 max

#

then you can farm scavs

wispy finch
#

does the game look for a higher geared/skilled pmc thne

#

or just a random one

floral ruin
#

no idea, i would assume its random

#

and to be fair its bullshit

#

cuz the 1 guy gets fucked over

#

and the 5 man can farm the guide

#

but i gues im biased cuz i play solo

wispy finch
#

i play solo most of the time aswell

#

its more chill

#

and to make money

floral ruin
#

you get a lot of friendlyfire as a 5 man?

wispy finch
#

but i got a few circles i can play with which definetly helps with some quests

floral ruin
#

or you find it ok

wispy finch
#

i been killed once by a team mate so far

#

which was a missfired nade

#

its all about how quickly you guys can determine who is who and you gotta know how your teammates look like

#

and kinda know where your mates are

floral ruin
#

lol

#

just got 1 tapped by a mosin and traded with him

#

sat ina corner camping too

acoustic juniper
#

When is next wipe

floral ruin
#

probly a few months

#

who knows

abstract pilot
#

oh what the fuyck there is a wipe?

random moon
#

ye

abstract pilot
#

i though the beta was almost over :S

random moon
#

i thinks its in june

abstract pilot
#

hopefully its a wipe for the launch or something

#

but because? or are they launching

random moon
#

because

#

starts everyone on a level playing field

stone surge
#

@abstract pilot lol it's not going to be the last wipe

#

if that's what you think

atomic knoll
#

There will always be wipes when the version is increased

stone surge
#

there'll be atleast like 3-4 more

atomic knoll
#

Keeps things fresh imo

stone surge
#

^ that also

#

honestly playing post wipe

#

first month

#

is really fun

#

money is easy to make aswell

#

all items hold value

atomic knoll
#

Easier to make.

#

I won't say it's easy

stone surge
#

it is

#

hoses 250k

#

bolts, wires 50k

atomic knoll
#

Hence easier

stone surge
#

You can make 100mil first day

#

if you really wanted to

wispy finch
#

i dont understand people who not like wipes

#

it gets boring after you completed every quest and are playing for months

stone surge
#

I get it, i mean they dont wanna lose the progress they made

wispy finch
#

without anything new

stone surge
#

but half a year is a long ass time

wispy finch
#

yup

stone surge
#

In rust servers i find 1month wipes perfect aswell

#

after a while when everyone is established it just isn't as fun anymore

#

not much to work towards.

flat cipher
#

@sour plume i wanna fight killa again

#

he fun

sour plume
#

he is

flat cipher
#

maybe we'll find him this time? :O

sour plume
#

we never ended up seeing him a single time last time

#

lmao

flat cipher
#

every time i dont wanna fight him hes dead on the floor

#

and whenever i go geared he's MIA

atomic knoll
#

I mean we have the kill Killa 100 times quest

stone surge
#

With such a great reward

wispy finch
#

it sure is

#

one of the best rewards

wet fox
#

can someone explain how to independently toggle 2 different weapon attachments? for instance if i have both a flashlight and laser. ctrl+T is not affecting anything

bold kernel
#

is there any case I can buy to put my granades in it?

wispy finch
#

@bold kernel thicc item case

#

or just a normal item case

bold kernel
#

Alright

#

Thank you bud

abstract pilot
#

how do you learn maps? dunno where I am most of the time

wispy finch
#

sounds dumb

#

but

#

you just gotta play em

#

if you have a second monitor

quaint relic
#

you got second monitor?

wispy finch
#

put up the map of it

quaint relic
#

yeah

wispy finch
#

and other than that just watch content creators

#

and if you wanna get into labs

#

dont fear it

abstract pilot
#

what's lab

wispy finch
regal plover
#

Psst. We just released an interactive Customs map on the wiki that can help you find your way around

wispy finch
abstract pilot
#

ok I will check it out

#

thanks

wispy finch
#

oh my god

#

thats so good

#

what the frick

regal plover
#

Check the legend on the side. There's "Scav Patrols" button off by default. We'll probably add one for boss patrols in the future.

wispy finch
#

what does that mean

#

where scavs spawn?

regal plover
#

Scav patrols is where... wait for it... where scavs patrol

#

Where they wander around

abstract pilot
#

how do I know where is the extraction point, it's something obvious? has like a sign or something?

wispy finch
#

not rly

#

you just gotta find your way to em

regal plover
#

Some are lit up by lights or flares

wispy finch
#

some have lights

#

will you guys add these interactable maps to all the maps?

regal plover
#

Planning on it

wispy finch
#

cause thats fucking huge and super nice

#

finally i can memorize where the pmc spawns are

regal plover
#

Mayyybeee Woods next, since it would be the quickest to do.

floral ruin
#

oh shit

#

ur the guy that made the map

regal plover
#

No

#

I helped populate some of the icons and I admin the wiki

floral ruin
#

i saw u post it on reddit i think

#

hard graft

atomic knoll
#

What are you guys using to make the interactive map?

regal plover
#

/u/GuideZ set it up on the wiki and the base layer of the map is made by /u/Glory4lyfe.

#

A widget that uses leafletjs

#

I don't know much about the backend of it, that would be GuideZ's department.

abstract pilot
#

how do I know which is night and which is day?

atomic knoll
#

Oh uses javascript

#

got it

regal plover
#

@abstract pilot On the map selection screen you can choose the time between 2 options

uncut socket
#

24 hour clock... @abstract pilot

atomic knoll
#

So users gotta enable JS

#

on their browser

wispy finch
#

@abstract pilot what do you mean

novel ridge
#

how much do n-15 nvg go for

wispy finch
#

11pm is 23

abstract pilot
#

I see, it's confusing because I'm pretty sure that I chooses 9 hours and got night

spare mist
#

where do i report someone whos disconnecting hacking?

regal plover
#

!report

Hello @regal plover,

We do not take reports of cheaters here on discord.
In order to report a cheater, please record your game and post the video in this topic :

Please refrain from accusing anyone here on discord to avoid provocations and conflicts.
Thank you!

wispy finch
#

sadly cheaters have become much more frequent recently

regal plover
#

@abstract pilot 9 would be after sunrise, 19:00 would be near sunset

wispy finch
#

i had someone blatantly speed hack on me in labs

regal plover
#

@spare mist ...did you read what I posted for you?

wispy finch
#

and the sad part is

abstract pilot
#

yeah dunno what happened

wispy finch
#

hes lvl 47

regal plover
#

We don't discuss cheats like this on the server.

spare mist

chilly oracle
#

hi

#

i just bought the game today

#

i have no idea what im doing

#

can someone help me learn how to play

languid flare
#

Its 13k

#

Yes

obsidian orchid
#

nvm

#

lol

languid flare
#

xD

obsidian orchid
#

dont look at me!!!

languid flare
#

O_O

floral ruin
#

@chilly oracle what do you need to know, its a hard one to just explain

chilly oracle
#

@floral ruin i just bought the game about 10 minuntes ago so i have no idea what im doing

floral ruin
#

any background knowledge at all

chilly oracle
#

i mean i watched a couple of youtube videos but thats it

floral ruin
#

ok well right off the bat

chilly oracle
#

yep

floral ruin
#

your gonan get shit on a lot at the start until you can pick it up

chilly oracle
#

ok

#

so pick up everything

#

how do i know what's good and what isnt

sleek grove
#

yo

floral ruin
#

which gives current prices

chilly oracle
#

ok

floral ruin
#

now you have PMC's

#

and scavs

#

id advise you to use your scav run pretty much off cooldown when you are new in order to build up a bit of money and gear

chilly oracle
#

ok

gusty mason
#

I see a bunch of streamers using hip fire a lot should I use it as well

modern steppe
#

what are bitcoins even good for

#

i have like 6

floral ruin
#

its certainly a useful skill to learn, if you are having difficulty id suggest using a laser

chilly oracle
#

ok

floral ruin
#

bitcoins are use for some trades for mechanic but usually they arent worth it, i would just sell them and use the money to get yourself some dcent gearsets

gusty mason
#

Is hip fire as accurate as ads?

floral ruin
#

i couldnt tell you, its probably less accurate

#

but honestly its not by much and you can easily hit someone not ADS

stone surge
#

@gusty mason with a laser yes

gusty mason
#

Okie

#

Thanks

atomic knoll
#

Not AS accurate

#

But much more accurate with a laser then without

languid flare
#

Hipfire is never as accurate as ADS xD

stone surge
#

hipfire with laser will basically make a concentrated dot up to 20-30meters

languid flare
#

Eh

#

Depends on gun and all

stone surge
#

unless your gun has shit recoil

#

it'll ofc make a bigger difference and it'll be more visible

#

the moment you hipfire with a 150vert recoil guj

#

compared to one with 40

languid flare
#

Also Bitcoins are currently worth more than the items you can barter with them
So sell em (Therapist) and buy the item directly and have some spare

weak hawk
#

im lvl 14 and have been playing the game for a week i have 4.3 million any ways to make more money?

atomic knoll
#

Safely?

rancid fractal
#

Keep doing what you're doing?

languid flare
#

Just keep playing

#

You got a good amount

#

Keep going

rancid fractal
#

Or blitz it all on your hideout

#

It's the reason I'm always broke lol

languid flare
#

Iam hovering constantly around 8mil

weak hawk
#

i made 2 mil total today

languid flare
#

Thats good

weak hawk
#

i dont feel satisfyed tho

floral ruin
#

then stay up all night and make more

languid flare
#

^

weak hawk
#

i wish i could

#

i got school tmr

languid flare
#

I mean, I made once 5mil in 4h

#

But thats not the norm

stone surge
#

it depends how experienced you are

weak hawk
#

ive only played for like a week

stone surge
#

5mil per 4hours on average is perfectly doable.

wet fox
#

lol what is your secret

languid flare
#

@stone surge Only Scav runs ๐Ÿ˜„

#

on IC

#

It was a fun day

stone surge
#

I spam labs and i make prob about 4-5mil in 4hours i think and that's with full loadout and playing for pvp not loot.

#

it's important to play the game how you like it to play rather than just focus on money

languid flare
#

^

stone surge
#

playing just for money is imo not even that fun and it'll get boring

languid flare
#

I literally barely met anyone in my 4h

#

But yeah, it gets boring

#

But Iam not very good on my own

#

So Eh, what works, works

stone surge
#

sometimes it's needed ofc but I wouldn't wanna play the game a week straight just doing money runs and avoiding fights

#

you'll get bored and quit before you even get to enjoy and use the money you make

#

but that's what I think xd

ancient falcon
#

When do you hipfire besides close range?

#

Is it better to always ads?

stone surge
#

no

#

hipfire is pretty op actually

#

around corners, when rushing in cqb

ancient falcon
#

is it very accurate?

stone surge
#

with laser yes

ancient falcon
#

compared to other games?

stone surge
#

yep

floral ruin
#

dont be afraid to hip fire

ancient falcon
#

With all guns?

stone surge
#

i generally use holosun

ancient falcon
#

with shotty I've found is useless

atomic knoll
#

Pretty much

stone surge
#

and putit on IR searchlight

#

so you dont see a red dot

#

and just hipfire on feel, it's not hard.

atomic knoll
#

IR is OP AF

stone surge
#

kinda yes

ancient falcon
#

what is IR?

atomic knoll
#

You barely see it

stone surge
#

basically no reason not to use IR searchlight

ancient falcon
#

laser on IR searchlight?

atomic knoll
#

Infrared

stone surge
#

exactly how i described it

#

it has the effect of a laser

ancient falcon
#

works on all guns?

stone surge
#

but you dont see a red dot

#

yes

atomic knoll
#

On all guns which can mount that laser

#

Not all guns can mount it IIRC

stone surge
#

^ that's basically all

#

except for example stock SKS

#

and some other plebo guns

atomic knoll
#

Yea

ancient falcon
#

what is the most popular and go to gun?

atomic knoll
#

AKs, M4s, VSSs

#

Anything you can think of really

ancient falcon
#

I've seen a lot of streamers use the long barrel AR with the sideways grip

atomic knoll
#

That has nothing to do with laser sightsthough?

ancient falcon
#

off topic

stone surge
#

@ancient falcon M4, AK-74N/M, VSS, AS Val, HK 416, mp7, M1A, TX-15

#

but there's more people use like the sa-58, i just dont see them often

#

HK with canted pk-06 and 37 recoil silenced is a disgustingly good weapon

floral ruin
#

disgustingly vile

regal plover
#

I use almost exclusively 7.62x51/54r weapons, except for the P90 occasionally. They're very economical rounds that hit hard.

stone surge
#

fun -> economical

atomic knoll
#

M61 - Economical

#

Something is wrong there

stone surge
#

m80 is still pretty effective

regal plover
#

I agree Veyz, but you can do both. Lots of the large caliber guns are fun.

#

M80 >>>> M61

stone surge
#

just not what it used to be

#

nah

atomic knoll
#

M80 is ehh

stone surge
#

m80 is def not beatn by m61

#

but still solid

regal plover
#

M80 will 1 tap most plaeyrs in the Thorax, and only class 5 and 6 are 2 taps.

stone surge
#

Nope it doesnt

atomic knoll
#

Nope

#

It doesn't

#

80 damage isn't nearly enough

stone surge
#

it's been proven a shit ton of times and easy tested yourself

regal plover
#

M61 is always a 2 tap at least.

stone surge
#

it has 0% chance to kill tier 3

#

litterly 0

#

doesn't even frag

regal plover
#

@atomic knoll Yes, 80 is the perfect amount actually because that's exactly how much HP the Thorax has.

stone surge
#

and m61 doesn't require 2

#

m61 actually has a chance to frag

atomic knoll
#

Armor dura is a thing

#

It tanks damage

stone surge
#

so m61 has a better chance killing tier 3/4 1shot

#

than m80 ๐Ÿ™‚

atomic knoll
#

^^

regal plover
#

@stone surge Wat. M80 pens class 3 just as easily as class 2

stone surge
#

this is already confirmed the first 2-3 days after they nerfed m80

#

by the same guy that made the bullet ballistics/spreadsheets

regal plover
#

Uh, no. You're very wrong

stone surge
#

then the spreadsheet you read is wrong

atomic knoll
#

You can 1 hit but the chances of it happening is REALLY low

#

Similar to LPS GZH

stone surge
#

because this is simulated more than 1000 times

regal plover
#

@stone surge I post the spreadsheets

stone surge
#

do you know how made them?

#

who*

regal plover
#

Yes.

#

I talk with them almost daily

stone surge
#

NoFoodAftermidnight?

regal plover
#

Yes.

stone surge
#

he said m80 has 0% chance

#

to kill tier 3 and 4

#

it's even on reddit

regal plover
#

That's completely untrue.

stone surge
#

nah it isn't

#

you can test it yourself

atomic knoll
#

Not 0%

#

There's a video on it

regal plover
#

I do daily.

stone surge
#

i've gone into raid

#

with a friend

atomic knoll
#

Just really low chances

stone surge
#

brought 15 troopers i believe total

#

and none oneshot

regal plover
#

We are talking about 7.62x51 M80, right?

stone surge
#

correct. m80

#

the reason is

#

even after penetrating tier 3 and tier 4 which m80 does

#

the damage gets reduced below 80

regal plover
#

No, it doesn't

stone surge
#

it does

atomic knoll
#

Small sample size

regal plover
#

I use this round every day and am routinely one tapping class 4 players

atomic knoll
#

But it shows the tests

#

Done

naive atlas
#

I see this topic almost every day

stone surge
#

i done them myself, it's been simulated A SHIT ton of times and there's ppl with vids on m80 not oneshotting tier 3 lol

#

idk how else to prove it to you

atomic knoll
#

I mean not every ammo 1 shot even though it should

#

Like 7n1

stone surge
#

yes but saying it nearly always oneshots tier 3 and 4

#

is wrong

atomic knoll
#

I've shot people and not had them 1 shot. Even with class 4 armor

stone surge
#

if you walk around with m80

#

and you see a guy wearing a trooper or pleb tier 3

#

don't expect a oneshot on thorax

#

you'll be dissapointed.

atomic knoll
#

Anyway, M62 is the better choice IMO

stone surge
#

also m61 has a lot higher frag chance

#

due to a bug on how fragging works

#

i wouldn't be surprised if they change it with the next update on armors

#

still m80 is not bad

#

in case anyone thinks i'm implying that

#

xd

atomic knoll
#

It 2 shots against class 4

#

So it's not bad

#

But anything above that can take some time to bring down

stone surge
#

the guy is a dead man walking after the first thorax shot basically

atomic knoll
#

Takes around 3-5 shots against class 5

stone surge
#

yup

atomic knoll
#

Which is why I prefer m62s

#

Usually 2 shot

#

Not matter the class

stone surge
#

ye just tracer idk imo

#

m62 and m61 is really

#

preference

#

equally good

atomic knoll
#

I don't mind tracker if they are dead in 2 shots

stone surge
#

m62 tracer, less pen

atomic knoll
#

And around 1.3k per shot vs 700

stone surge
#

m61 no tracer, higher pen, less damage

#

so yea it's just preference

#

the difference is minimal

atomic knoll
#

Yep

#

Minimal enough to make not much of a difference

#

So I chose the cheaper round

atomic knoll
#

Shit on bolt action

left vapor
#

shit on everything

stone surge
#

?

atomic knoll
#

Not on semi autos

stone surge
#

idk what this video shows

#

lol

left vapor
#

shows a scav without armor tanking 2 shots of m61 to the chest

#

gkdshngรงlkf

#

actually 3

stone surge
#

the 2nd didnt even hit

#

or no indication it did?

left vapor
#

ofc it didnt

atomic knoll
#

I saw 1 shot

left vapor
#

he screams after I shot for the 2nd time, lol

stone surge
#

it did 162 damage

#

means you didnt even hit his thorax

left vapor
#

o k

stone surge
#

only with the first shot

#

idk just stating facts here

#

m61 does less than 80 damage

#

m80 would've oneshot him, but if it was a guy with tier 5, expect to put like 3-4 rounds in him before he dies

#

while m61 does 2

#

or 1 in frag cases

left vapor
#

shows a scav without armor tanking 2 shots of m61 to the chest

stone surge
#

ye except it wasn't 2 shots in the chest.

left vapor
#

he didnt had a tier 5

#

nor did he had armor

stone surge
#

so how do you explain a 160hp thorax ?

left vapor
#

the first shot went through his arm

#

nvm, i cant

stone surge
#

through his arm and hit his chest

#

with 1 bullet?

#

OK lul

naive atlas
#

When hit>ammo used doesnt that mean it fragmented ?

left vapor
#

wdym

#

ah, you mean if when the bullet fragments it counts as 2nd hit?

#

probably not

stone surge
#

not sure actually

#

hard to test

atomic knoll
#

How did you get 3 hits actually?

left vapor
#

right arm > chest

#

2 nd shot > chest

atomic knoll
stone surge
#

it's most likely ricochet /doublepen

#

but the damage is generally so low

#

wouldn't be surprised if it's 1 or 2.

modern steppe
#

anyone have cool p90 builds theyd like to share

hello

sturdy peak
#

Hey team how do I unlock the full mod/mod-preview option I see players use? Do I need the workbench in the hideout?

cursive shoal
#

I am fairly certain that I am a hoarder... i don't survive often but when i do, i dont wanna get rid of anything

atomic knoll
#

@sturdy peak yes

young hill
#

hello, i found two tetriz in interchange, i wanted to know for making money, whether its more worth it to sell the tetriz, or convert the tetriz into a bitcoin then a mp7.

waxen slate
#

Go look at the prices of the bitcoin and tetriz on the flea market

#

Then decide which one is more

#

I wouldn't recommend trading it for a gun because u could possibly make the same mp7 for j cheaper

#

@young hill

atomic knoll
#

Remember to check against traders too

#

If it's the same as traders, sell it to them as flea has a fee while traders don't

young hill
#

ahh ok

waxen slate
#

True when u sell an item to the flea market it cost a certain amount depending how much u r putting on the market. So if they r the same j sell it to ur trader cz they dont cost to sell

ancient falcon
#

@brazen echo do you mean 37 recoil silenced?

#

@stone surge also what you do mean IR searchlight?

#

I found htis blue lasersight, is that good enough?

waxen slate
#

@ancient falcon i can help u whats ur issue?

ancient falcon
#

we were talking about laser sights

#

do I get any?

#

I can't find any IR searchlight in the market

#

also why can't I search in market? I have to go back to menu or go to dealer then search every time I want to search for something different.

waxen slate
#

Ur over lvl 5 right?

bold kernel
#

I thought you just need the ir laser

languid flare
#

LS321 has an IR laser

ancient falcon
#

yeah

waxen slate
#

Yea the ls321 is a very good laser that most use but usually any laser is good.

ancient falcon
#

in market it says laser devices (906) but there is only about a quarter showing

#

wheres the rest?

waxen slate
#

J keep scrolling down

#

Sometimes it shows sold out ones for some reason

ancient falcon
#

right

#

the ls321 is not compatible with my ak074

round verge
#

anyone wanna trade kills for jaeger's tremor and flashbang quests?

ancient falcon
#

ak-74

#

when do you unlock jaeger?

round verge
#

one of mechanic's quests

#

sorta early on

waxen slate
#

@ancient falcon do u have a rail on the side for it

#

Aks usually dont have rails so u have to buy them

split vapor
#

mech task after GS 1

ancient falcon
#

oh mechanic

#

what do you do for his first quest?

split vapor
#

go on woods find a letter and exit

ancient falcon
#

which slot is the rail? @waxen slate

languid flare
#

handguard

waxen slate
#

For aks youll have to buy a whole new front part of an ak that has 1

#

Yea the handguard

#

Unless u have an handguard to where u can attach railings otherwise j buy a handguard w railings that goes w the ak and attach it

#

@ancient falcon

ancient falcon
#

i have zhukov, yeah doesn't look like it has one

waxen slate
#

To find jaegar its the paper right next to the little wooden structure next to the airplane crash

#

When i get home from the gym i can see

#

Cz i dont have a full idea on what handguards work for it

ancient falcon
#

is there a way to search for a handguard for that specific weapon?

waxen slate
#

Yea

#

Right click the gun

ancient falcon
#

linked search is too much

#

of other things i hae to scroll through

languid flare
#

Roughly there is the paper

waxen slate
#

On the side when u do linked

#

It shows attachments and u can search directly through that

What r the 2 different searches againt there is linked and what else

ancient falcon
#

I just used a mount

#

works

#

required

#

and filtered

waxen slate
#

Do filtered i beliece

#

Ahh ok

ancient falcon
#

filtered is only the weapon though

#

now i need to get this scope to mount on my mosin

waxen slate
#

Oops then linked

ancient falcon
#

says its incompatible

waxen slate
#

Does it say its blocked by something else

#

Or j says u cant attach it cz it doesnt go w it

#

Ill be home in like 10mins

#

Ill call u and show u

languid flare
#

@ancient falcon Is it a Mosin, or a Mosin Infantry?
Cause Infantry cant have a scope

ancient falcon
#

mosin sniper

languid flare
#

You need a Kochetov mount, then a ringmount, THEN the scope

#

Do you have the Workshop built in your hideout?

waxen slate
#

Certain guns take mounting for scopes

ancient falcon
#

rear sight and front sight are empty

#

do i need a railing for it?

waxen slate
#

Yea

#

But if its a mosin

#

U need a mount

ancient falcon
#

level 1 workshop

languid flare
#

No, well, depends on the scope you want on.

#

Okay

waxen slate
#

Like look up the opk-7

languid flare
#

So

waxen slate
#

That requires a mount

languid flare
#

@ancient falcon Rightcklick weapon, Edit Preset, then you can click on things and look what you need and can use

#

(if you have them examined)

waxen slate
#

@ancient falcon something like this

#

The bottom part is the mount

languid flare
#

I mean

#

You dont even know what scope he wants on

#

<.<

waxen slate
#

Ik but im giving him an example

languid flare
#

An easier and more common example would be the PU scope

#

But yes

waxen slate
#

But even tho ur right if he has the workbwnch he can j edit the preset

#

Pso1?

languid flare
#

PU Scope

#

!wiki PU Scope

Hello? Bot?

is scav case worth getting and using?

Fair enough ik what the pu scope is

Rip bot

ancient falcon

kochetov is not showing up in the preset

@dusk token imo, yes

waxen slate

Isnt the pso tho good too

@ancient falcon You might not have it examined

atomic knoll

PU scope is good enough

Go to flea and look for it

i have one in my invent

Can ya screenshot the weapon?

Like I said COULDNT have a scope

XD

ancient falcon
#

wtf

#

lol

#

I thought I bought a sniper

atomic knoll
#

If u want a cheap mosin with scope, just do the level 1 prapor trade

#

For 4 a size batteries and 2 d size batteries

ancient falcon
#

whats the dif anyway?

atomic knoll
#

You can put a scope?

weak sage
#

nothing just stock wowawewah

languid flare
#

Difference between Mosin and Mosin Infantry is the scope you want to put on ๐Ÿ˜›

waxen slate
#

Exactly

atomic knoll
#

Doing the trade is the cheapest way to get a mosin with scope

#

You are definitely getting the right mosin after all

#

Just slap in there some ammo and you're golden

ancient falcon
#

the right mosin? infantry ?

#

is the sniper any slower?

atomic knoll
#

Bolt action

#

Why do you keep bringing up the infantry?

#

We have already stated the difference between the 2

ancient falcon
#

prapor mosin sniper has always been out of stock for me

#

is there a specific time or something?

atomic knoll
#

Even the level 1 trade?

ancient falcon
#

how do i check what level i am?

#

i've only done 3 tasks so far

atomic knoll
#

Everyone starts out at lvl1

#

For traders

ancient falcon
#

doing the beacon on the tanks now

atomic knoll
#

Just go prapor, look for the mosin which you don't need cash to buy

#

There should only be one for you

#

Do that trade. Buy the batteries from flea. They are cheap

#

Total cost should be less then 30k

#

Or around that ball park

ancient falcon
#

it says out of stock

atomic knoll
#

Ok

ancient falcon
#

is it there for others?

atomic knoll
#

Backout to the screen where u can select traders

#

There should be a timer for each trader

#

It should countdown

#

The timer

#

How long do you have left for prapor?

@prisma slate then extract once you got the watch.

best assault scope that's 35k and under?

prisma slate

i know how to but i die everytime

#

im just at the point of bringing a pistol but this most recent time a fully geared guy turned on me after I put 3 rounds in the back of his head

fair edge
#

i sorta just rushed that with mid-tier gear

#

it helps to get a lucky spawn close to the middle of the map

prisma slate
#

and my team mates also just got off, and I get really freaked out at doing anything solo in tarkov

atomic knoll
#

Scopes are preference

#

There is no best

fair edge
#

aight so, i'm tryna choose between elcan specterdr, monstrum, and prism 2.5x

#

what would y'all personally recommend out of these, for a good balance of close range and mid-range sight picture?

#

i do plan on running with blue laser 24/7

prisma slate
#

should I try to get the watch at night

atomic knoll
#

I honestly can't comment. It's preference

#

I prefer the monstrum

fair edge
#

ima be trying out the monstrum with friends tomorrow

prisma slate
#

@fair edge prism is really good balance but bad reticle imo

atomic knoll
#

Some prefer prism

fair edge
#

maybe will try out the prism later depending on the ranges i find myself fighting at the most

atomic knoll
#

Never seen one who likes the elcan

bold kernel
#

Prism is pretty good imo

fair edge
#

tbh elcan feels horribad for close range

#

i might as well take a slightly longer range scope and point-fire indoors (like dorms or resort), while scoping outdoors

prisma slate
#

prism is only like 20k as well

atomic knoll
#

Like I said, sights is preference

#

They are all great

#

Just which do you prefer

fair edge
#

gotcha! I guess i'll keep experimenting

#

will try monstrum first then prism

bold kernel
#

Welp. I guess im trying this quest solo D:

atomic knoll

Good choice. Try em out

Then sell em if you dislike it

do you play reserve alot

you can make 2m+/day playing reserve so most of the keys are worth but if you dont play reserve just sell

karmic canopy

anyone wanna show me how to play reserve im trying to get into it but its a little overwealming

random lion

@karmic canopy Do some hatchet runs to learn the map and see where players and scavs come from. Thatโ€™s how I did it.

any recommendations on how to make money? ive been doing interchange, and not making the money that people tell me i can make

faint matrix
#

@bold kernel learn specific spawns for high valuable items^ red key cards, lab cards, high rollers etc etc. Learn what is valuable and what isnt valuable. A lot of times, things can look like they are worth a lot but its actually 8000 rpls.

tribal cove

Scav runs. A lot of them. And at first learn easier maps with less geared ppl

bold kernel

okay cool

because i have customs down to the back of my hand

@quartz turtle i like to do that to ppl. Hate it when it happenes to me lol. You got tarkoved

quartz turtle

this game legitimately terrifies me, so i only play with friends

i thought me being last alive in any BR (apex, pubg) was stressful, then I played Tarkov

hollow flume

I feel that

tribal cove
#

I only played in a squad/duo 2 times. I like to play solo. Make my own decisions, hear the environment better, shoot on sight without waiting for confirmation ...

And every step close to me I am sure it is an enemy, I dont get distracted by teammates

#

@quartz turtle

quartz turtle
#

true

#

but i need someone to tell me its ok

ancient falcon
#

should I use earpads every game?

tribal cove
#

@ancient falcon yea. Worth it

#

I learned a lot of things the hard way

quartz turtle
#

if you like information then yes

ancient falcon
#

can you hear people crouch walking with it?

quartz turtle

i wouldnt cheap out on the comtacs though

#

tried the 9k one and it was horrid

ancient falcon

not the quietest one

quartz turtle

it amplified every noise

tribal cove

@ancient falcon ypu can hear ppl crouch sneaking, opening their inventory, changing fire mode, EVERYTHING

ancient falcon

can others hear whatever you hear? when can people hear me walk?

Yup

ooooh lmao thanks man

autumn yoke
#

@bold kernel did you unfold the stock?

#

It won't visually change but the numbers will

This is with the stock that comes with the gun initially, because for some reason if you fold the stock and replace it, the new stock won't apply the stats

old ledge
#

Do I get all the shoreline keys or nah

#

All of em

autumn yoke
#

If you're going to run shoreline a lot, then yes it's a great investment to make if you head into resort

old ledge
#

Or do I keep doing reserve dunno whatโ€™s better

#

Didnโ€™t even nerf ledx on shoreline

autumn yoke
#

If you already run reserve consistently I don't see too much of a point to swap to shoreline

old ledge
#

Yeah but I sometimes die

#

So itโ€™s shid

#

I probably wonโ€™t die on shoreline

autumn yoke
#

If you're hitting stashes / outskirts only, probably not

old ledge
#

Nahhh I wanna get that ledx and red key card

autumn yoke
#

If you're running into resort, you probably will die but not before you get a couple things into your prison pocket lol

If you get those spawns I doubt you care if you die anymore if they're safe in your container lol

bold kernel

@bold kernel woods is ez pz

#

grab a pistol

with 2 mafs

I can vouch for that, took a TT & 2 mags and prayed for a spawn near scav house

i just went in with nothing

and managed to the quest without trying

dident even realise i had it

btw whats shermans rr %

#

becouse its so retarded wasting multible hours

#

not finding him

#

and when you do find him he has shit

#

and you bearly get like 200k in the safe

#

by the shacks each game

autumn yoke
#

actual rr spawn chance on him no fuckin idea, only know he has a 35% chance to spawn

#

it's probably like 0.1 or 1% lol

#

I'm not sure if it has a higher chance to just run old gas and look on the table, it's probably faster though

white ocean
#

Does the alarm on reserve mean the bunker exit is open?

autumn yoke

yes

you have ~4 minutes before it stops and you need to go back to reactivate it to extract through bunker h door

Alright cool I didnโ€™t know I only had 4 minutes after it goes off, Iโ€™ve mainly just done scav and hatchling runs on reserve but wanna actually try having some gear now I know the map

atomic knoll

@edgy phoenix A little late but you can do the circuit board if you want. They sell for 9.5k to therapist

oh jeez yeah

bold kernel

should i get a meds case i got 1m roubles

marsh socket
#

I should probably sell it

autumn yoke
#

@bold kernel get the Med case if you don't have the scav case

#

Sorry I mean

#

Get it if you HAVE the case

bold kernel
#

i have a scav case it doesnt hold meds

#

oh

autumn yoke
#

Ok then yeah

bold kernel
#

lucky scav junkbox?

atomic knoll
#

Get the med case if you can afford it

autumn yoke
#

yep, just cus it's a bigger purchase imo and you kinda always will loot random crap that fills your inv

#

but since you have it, yes get Med case to save more space

bold kernel
#

inv space was a big problem before

#

but i sold a bunch of my guns and bought a few cases

atomic knoll
#

IMO the priority for cases is like this:

  1. scav junkbox
  2. meds box
  3. thermobag
#

This should give you space for pretty much all the random crap

#

Guns are normally sold anyway

#

Unless you are using it

autumn yoke
#

^

#

junk box, med, ammo, mag, thermo

atomic knoll
#

ammo & mag are not priority imo.

autumn yoke
#

you really don't need items/weapons right away, but if you get one it is pretty nice

pliant elk
#

priority should be doing therapist questline up to private clinic, you get a thicc items case as reward which can hold other cases aswell, for standard edition thats golden also doing punisher questline from prapor for epsilon secure container.

atomic knoll
#

And when you have more keys, docs case

autumn yoke
#

yeah, ammo/mag lower priority than thermo imo as well

#

and ignore money case bc you really don't need early on

#

and iirc docs do better anyways

marsh socket
#

I gotta stop hoarding guns

atomic knoll
#

docs can store cash too

#

And keys. So stick with those early on

#

Can someone recommend a long range scope for my sv-98

atomic knoll
#

scopes are personal preference

autumn yoke
#

the Burris full field tac30

#

is the most common one scavs with the M700 use

atomic knoll
#

I personally like the valday

white ocean
#

How much do money cases go for on the flea market normally? I canโ€™t see cause Iโ€™m in raid rn

pliant elk
#

sell the sv-98 its a bad weapon, it has a delay after pressing fire, missing a lot of shots with it

autumn yoke
#

It's probably cheaper than the valday 1-6 though

pliant elk
#

for budget sniping just use a mosin sniper with pso scope

atomic knoll
#

I feel that the price is worth it

#

So it's my preferred scope

#

Experience can vary

#

Which is why I stated scopes are usually a preference

#

So there is no "recommended" scope

#

Pick what you like

#

"Usually" as there is only 1 scope for some

#

Like canted mounts

#

Can only use pk-06

bold kernel
#

i like vepr hunters on woods

#

i need a better scope for it

#

any cheap but longish scopes for vepr hunter?

atomic knoll
#

pso?

pliant elk
#

^

atomic knoll
#

That's the cheapest

#

Alternatively, you can do the lvl1 prapor barter for a mosin with PU scope

#

For 4 a sized batteries and 2 d sized batteries

bold kernel
#

prapor just sells infantry mosins

atomic knoll
#

Nope. He does a barter for it

bold kernel
#

i dont have any batteries

atomic knoll
#

Buy em off flea

#

Cheap

autumn yoke
#

I feel like the night force one or whatever is the only scope that's almost unusable imo, so I don't think I would recommend it for anything

bold kernel
#

like rly cheap?

atomic knoll
#

D batteries are like 5-6k each

#

AA batteries are around 6-8k each

bold kernel
#

thats quite a lot for someone like me

atomic knoll
#

Can be cheaper too depending on timing

#

??? That's less then 40k for a modded Mosin

#

You can use it as it is

#

USually less then 30k

#

I mean on loot goblin, they are like really cheap

#

2k each for AA battery

#

And 4k each for D battery

#

That's less then 20k for a Mosin with scope

#

I don't think there's a primary weapon which can go lower then that with scope

languid flare
#

And the Mosin for the Barter comes with full Scope
So 40k + Scope

atomic knoll
#

No, it's 20k with a mosin & scope

marsh socket
#

I was just matching into factory but now my screen is now just showing the menu background

atomic knoll
#

Assuming the batteries are at that price

#

Not in game now so can't confirm

languid flare
#

@atomic knoll Well, I meant for Roubles from prapor, but yes

atomic knoll
#

haha yep

#

It's a great deal actually

languid flare
#

Sure is, yes

autumn yoke
#

if you like adars can always trade one rec battery for an adar at skier ll1

atomic knoll
#

You could but adar's ammo is pretty expensive

#

While Mosin's ammo is available at prapor lvl 1 which has potential(though rare) to 1 hit player's thorax

#

Also, the guy wants a gun with a long scope for woods

#

For a quest I guess

languid flare
#

I mean, you can put a long scope on an Adar if you got to ๐Ÿ˜›

autumn yoke
#

true, I'd honestly break down the adar and sell it and use that mosin barter instead

languid flare
#

Thats what I do with rec bat currently.

#

Dont need any anymore

So trading for ADAR and make 22k instead of 12k
