upper torso?
right in the ribs
it doesnt really do anything that 7n1 doesnt already do
and everyone flocking to it because its most expensive
but it doesn't one-tap when 7N1 does
so its kinda suck
o
i have that as backup if I run out
thanks guys Ill see how it plays
i dip to 40 fps when I scope in with tac 30
from 70
Sounds about right
lmao
is matchmaking fucked for anyone else?
always raid with class 4 armor?
if you cant mount it
Ever since I started using presets, modding has been a lot easier
you do need a mount for the pu scope
i picked up Kochetov but i can't combine them
I mean, or you can trade it for a mp7 with mechanic
i found a key worth 150k today
sell dat
some customs checkpoint key
if its a map you plan on running, u might as well keep the key, if not then sell
yeah i only know customs but i'm afraid i'll lose it
i can keep it until i feel confident to go to wherever it opens
Do you have the link to the reddit guide of the screenshot above? we can't see shit there
Anyone in here need a red rebel?
What level are you @flat cipher
I need it
What about me ? 😛 I wouldn't say no to that
😦
i mean
How are you 29 and don't have a rr lol
I need one I have para but no rr
What level are you
5 but I was lvl 15 before I reset
you know you can just give it to em through flea
right?
The actual worth of RR is like 54k
Just list a barter worth a similar price
bots would buy it I think
Yeah I can put something up on Flea, i
not for a barter
ya not worth the risk when i can drop it in raid and blow my ass up with a grenade
easy peasy
Ill put up a water bottle for a RR on flea
there's like zero risk with this
no bot will take it
@bold kernel HOW
nobody in their right mind
he put a bandage for a red rebel.
Sure do that
I put it up
same name in game
Im on the first page if you filter price high to low
Sent you a FR
Added you
which fuel cheapest cost for hideout?
kk
in workstation?
kk
Tysm <333
Gl dude
❤️ ty again
kek
ill take a rr lul
only reason i havent ran reserve is because i dont have one of those
I have one and I barely use it
is items case good?
I'd get a little bit more first
Sell shit
Sell anything you're not planning on using soon
And then upgrade your stash with the money instead
No
Anything 9mm is bad
Except the vss and as val
They're very strong
Sell all 9mm weapons, and ammo
Keep a pistol or two and a few mags
damn
i had a weapons case of mpx lol
idk y
should i sell p90 and mp7-9?
@flat cipher
Mpx are decent, not good tho
mp5?
p90 is bad, untill it gets good ammo
isnt that every gun?
so sell p90?
How do i exit woods?
is mp5 good?
I dont know whats PMC and what needs a scav
Through an extraction
!wiki woods
Can i leave through outskirts
I am man
If you dont know what a pmc is, youre having serious issues
@verbal summit anything 9x19, sell it
like you need a PMC and a Skav simultaneously to exit
factory gate?
dont
that one is
You might wanna look for a different map
never go there
Also @verbal summit
Mag cases, ammo cases, med cases
Get those first before item cases
They save so much space
i have 4 weapons cases 2 mag cases and a med case
tbh even pistol cases early on to hold ammo xD
Sell the wcases
i just have too much shit
fr?
Mhm
i mean
can i put weapons cases in items cases?
I think so
should i sell 2?
you can put weapon cases in I cases im pretty sure
Mhm
what does the mosin rear sight do?
its a rear sight
do you have to pull it up or something?
Because there's no functioning iron sights?
You need them both
Iron sights are a two piece deal
The rear sight lets you align the front sight with the right side and place
except sks 😉 sks best w/o rear sight lol
anyone wanna group up, lvl 5 customs
How do you tell if something needs repaired and is it even worth repairing stuff in this game?
@burnt jay you can view durability on guns, helmets, armor and armor rigs. you won't probably ever have to repair a gun but as far as armor I repair until max durability is around 60% of what a new one would have
60% is good to know
its also not worth repairing ceramic as its expensive and max durability tanks compared to the other materials
if you have a standard or the level after that stash yes @verbal summit
Can someone look at this clip and tell me if this is cheating or not?
I was sitting in this spot for 10 minutes before this clip.
Yeah thats 100% cheats, made no noise and tried to prefire your exact location through the wall lmao, huge signs of a wall hacker lmao
Report him if you can
I will that was so fucked i literally was there for 10 minutes waiting
he didnt prefire tho he jiggle peeked some people just do that at every corner or where they think someone is camping if it was a cheater hed probably have headshot u immediately and not jiggled
might be wrong tho
I certainly considered that, but first shot I wasnt peaking, then i got two tapped when i peaked he didnt miss did he?
first shoulder peek he saw you and then ads and you ran into his ads
I guess this fool sprints around taunting and checks corners randomly
!report

Thank you!
tho, after watching that clip, i dont think hes hackin
He vl'd then waited there for a good 30+ seconds cause he sees that hes holding the angle you hear him go prone twice and vl'ed before hand lmao
You going in and out of your inventory makes noise
What’s a golden gphone for
any noobs need help with learning the game preferably low level kids
@formal nova therapist buys em for money. I believe a quest asks for em to. but they are not that hard to find
Yeah i just sold it to her
yeah @gaunt panther , just about to jump in as character. was thinking about first run on interchange as scav. what you up to?
holy shit the 7n1 is a beast
just killed a full killa kitted guy with RSASS
with only a mosin
you've got to be kidding me
you trade
no he didnt die
was watching after
sniper scav, do they have higher hp or something
wait shit ur right @hushed furnace im a clown
pretty sad about that
oof
M61,m62 or m80?
i'd use either m80 or m61
m61 has 68 penetration, m80 only has 41
m61 has 70 damage, m80 has 80
however m61 increases recoil and accuracy, but m80 doesnt
m61 has a slightly greater speed too
i'd use m61 if i'm doing a run where i know there are going to be stacked people
i'd use m80 to dunk on scavs
m61 has less damage which is bad and costs so much
i prefer m61 for sniping.
If you can M61 is better because of higher pen as M80 does not one tap an armored thorax
though i would never use m62
because tracer a long distance can really fuck you up
if you’re silenced and trying to be avoided
m62 tends to be the best DPS for close end stuff.
end game pvp m62 does better than m80
yeah
when i’m doing close range stuff i will use m62
but for sniping i use m80
and go for headshots
m61 has less pen and is more expensive, and people don’t usually wear class 6 armour. or at least i haven’t faced a lot of them
which is why i just go for m80
i've bounced too many m80 as of late on woods, lots more level 5 armor than there used to be
I put up a RR for 3 Ledx in Flea
where can you see the armor lvl
@naive otter inspect the armor
class ?
Yep
Speaking of woods
I have so many Quests there now ;_;
Still my least favourite map xD
You can buy the truck key on flea it’s only like 5k
You can get the.. yeah, that ^
Most (!) Quest keys arent too expensive
And remember, you can find keys on Scav too 🙂
That and you avoid going to dorms
I put up a RR for 3 Ledx in Flea if anyone is interested, Same name ingame 🙂
Still like 5m xD
3 ledx is cheaper then paying full price
Honestly, atm my believe is that RR isnt worth it.
Reserve is oversaturated by Loot Runners or High Gear people.
Thats my experience with it.
I got mine for 2.2m, so Iam happy. But right now I'd not spend that much money anymore xD
Well thats you, theres still plenty of people wanting/needing a RR
cant then
Dang it. I need a piece for a gun for the offer is for euros only
Maybe you find something on Flea
But thats usually a big net loss
Or find em
shrugs
Nevermind just saw a new offer get posted for the stock I needed
So i just got the game, whats a good map to start with?
Customs for Quests, Interchange for money
👌
Sooner or later you'll need to go to all of them
But those two are probably the best for start
Avoid Factory a start
Its a big clusterfuck and 'noob trap'
since when does it take over 5 min to scav run factory smh
Since he doesn’t know the map factory is a no no. Not shit for loot anyways
!ammo
I like this website for the ammo

Not as in depth as the wiki but it’ll tell me real quick what’s being kept and what gets tossed
Can someone help me do some quests on customs? I am lvl 7
Oh shit the urban mdr is in the game?
DT MDR, yes
I assume it’s quite expensive lol
Ehhh, depends. 308 version more than 556 but its okay
How much is it?
I think I heard around 70k?
Dunno
Never used it, dont care
Darn alright
So. Im trading a RR for 3 ledx on flea market
556 MDR is 7/10 - Cheaper than modding an M4 to similar stats, limited in how low recoil can go.
308 MDR is 9/10 - Cheaper than modding a FAL to similar stats.
Can someone help me with mission on customs? I am lvl 7
i have no clue what i should even be doing lmao
i just go into raids on whatever map and try to loot
@agile crow wanna do some missions together?
yeah i suck
im probably gunna go pistol on customs bc i hate that map with a passion
i have like 3 missions there
So. Im trading a RR for 3 ledx on flea market
why thats such a lost of money
Eh not that much
considering to put it up for the 5.8mil you get changed 2.somthing mil
Anyone has clue how I died there? https://streamable.com/e1sv0 I asked him and he said he was on the gas tanks. I don't see anyone there and I am wondering if I am missing something? Can someone point out possible locations of the enemy so I can check there the next time?
sniper rock at power station
im assuming by the way your body fell as well
it would be better if i could hear the shot but theres no volume
I was also thinking that and asked him exactly that and he said he was on the gas tank. So I went and checked again and again but I guess he was just dishonest
no sound
it was val he said
guess we all have these deaths 🙂
so how does one survive interchange spawn without jumping in a moshpit fight at the intersections
rush top mid sandbags lol
lmao
thats the only way i survive but theres always a team coming up the other side so ez picks
Is there any downside to using a weaver sight over PK06? The weaver has a wider field of view and is significantly cheaper than the PK06, yet everyone is running with PK06
Ya’ll think the best way to clean out gas station of scavs on customs is to just snipe em
question, I'm doing the fishing gear quest, and managed to put the sniper and tool in the boat, but died before extracting, do I have to do it all again?
@bold kernel honestly something like a pko6 is my preference as i dont find sniping with the sks that sucessful so i usually run mid range where the pk06 can hold its own fine
@zinc rapids Easy to check, if the quest has a check mark behind, its fine.
Might have to extract in another game tho
Im trading a RR for 3 ledx on flea market
Why
Sell rr for 6mil buy the Ledx and I have spare cash after
How do i get thicc case
Therapist late game quest
Or flea market ofc
Why sell it for 6mil when the game will tax me 2.7mil to list it
Actually. at the going price right now id have to pay 2.85mil just to list it
how rare is this shit or is it functional atm?
Not functional
@bold kernel so?
@hearty sky No use as of now
tnx
been hearing wipe talks for a while now... and also something about skills not being wiped, even though the levelling logic was drastically changed....
do they usually wipe skill levels or not? Seems pretty damn unfair if abused levels are not wiped
yay
Until then there should not be any kind of wipe
yeah, I don't mind much about the time
And yes, afaik, those with high skill stats did not get wiped, but honestly that MAYBE 0.1% of all players best
currently I can't even get strength up to 3 for hideout upgrade :/ don't want to find some player to just beat each other up
seems bit cheap
Throw any grenade you find and take some always with you (smokes at start of game)
Its slow
But it works
yeah, I heard; I guess I'll try finding some heavy stuff and just run around as well
not sure how easy it is to get 40kg+ cheap though
If you have the Epsilon, you can put a Tank Battery (60kg) inside
I'm smth like lvl12 with alpha sadly 😛
Thought so, but wanted to mention it anyway
how much should i sell a rb-bk kye with all uses left on flea?
I dont think so
i see 1 uses going for 75k but what about full keys
where can i find these or i just need to find 1?
https://gyazo.com/4e19c9f95776056e11246d07cd4a52db
You find it
in what map
Customs, the construction area has a fuel tanker in it, you need a key to unlock it called the Machinery key
you'll find the watch in the cabin and it's a quest item, meaning it won't appear in your normal inventory but you will lose it if you die
I dont do hatchling runs often cuz.....im getting at least marginally better at the game so i can usually bring guns in,even if its lower tier guns. Can someone explain the new hatchling mechanics?
run around naked and hope to shove some valuables up your butt
not what I meant, but yeah thats what I did since i have the gamma case now.
another thing.
Guys, please help me. Is there ANY way you can prevent the use of items found in raid when upgrading your hideout?
try putting them into your character
does that work 100%?
iunno, but it should show up as non-existent if it's on your char
hmm fair point. I'll try. Have you not had the same problem?
Also thakns for the response
not really, no
wait
so you're asking if you can use another, non-found in raid item to upgrade hideout with?
When we always went on night maps cuz I figured night maps would be less PMCs,but some people say (and I think theres some truth to this.) that night raids bring out the better skilled players. Is that the case in your experience? Do you do better on day raids than night?
If you had a choice, would you rather....race to get the best loot, or go slower and hope you hear a PMC going fast? Which is better.....
A lot of the higher skilled people i play with think the former is better but I think conventional logic dictates the latter?
or do you mean you want to remove the found in raid tag after crafting something in the hideout?
Oh, so when upgrading the generator to level 2 for example. You need 15 wires. A task also requires you to find 5 wires in raid. I had the 5 wires ready in my junkbox and proceeded to buy the 15 wires from the flea market. However when upgrade it automatically sucked the 5 found in raid wires and 10 of the wires I bought. Bigg zzzz and was just wondering why TF you can't choose which items to use
ouch
yeah i believe if you put them into your character before upgrading it should not even count as you having it
you can also turn in some task items right away, should help also
Don't think the character thing works 😦
but thanks for the help man, can't believe this is a thing
@faint mauve ^
Hm, I wonder if this is applicable to ALL of the items needed in hideout. I'll do some research, thanks guys!
Looks like its not. Somethings like the Alkali surface can't be crafted but is required for upgrades. zzz
@solemn pike Why do you hatched run? You wont get better by doing that
What’s the lore reason as to why pmcs attack other people of their own faction?
Survival
Check what is really needed to be found in raid
Otherwise you can buy off flea market
And turn the items in
where do i find these frickin flash drives
Comps
No hideout items are 'found in raid'
Found in raid only applies to Quests
Flash drives are physically sticking out of the Computers
Not when searching
ok
Yeah, I know they apply to quests, I'm just looking for a way when upgrading the hideout to not use items that you need for find it raid quests.
Anyone wanna help me get to Jaeger's camp in WOODS?
Same
@languid flare think there's a very small chance to find them while searching, just like gpus
u are better off just looking if they stick out though
Maybe. I found 2-3 GPUs inside of PCs, 4 USB physically sticking out, but never a single inside a block
I mean, it makes sense
Who sticks their USB inside a pc block?
@hollow flume are u referring to my comment??
Yes
@hollow flume lets play then... but I need to go to the store.. (it's just Across the street)
Yall go ..I need to get dog food my boys are hungry... oh
Hi guys, anyone interested to Play some games tonight ? Im eu and lvl 10.. Im quite new and could use some help
So basically I’m so broke and I have no guns so I literally have to hatchling run
Any tips?
Yeah scav run
@marsh sedge scav runs every time they come off cd, just focus loot not kills en sell and buy geat
Gear*
literally same so new to the game can't even figure out what I am doing lol
Go slow, focus on finding out how to extract. Look at maps on the wiki to find out where loot is
Sound is a huge factor in this game
The game is literally experience and knowledge based so just playing is best, watch some YouTube things in the gane @rose zinc
yea that's what I been doing there is a lot to know
Going into offline mode to practice killing scavs, throwing grenades, and where extracts are is useful
@lunar lynx hey my man u still got time..srry
Ive been playing for like 3 weeks and got a lot of the game figured out. Keep at it and this game will turn out to be very fun
You know in OFFLINE MODE u still get XP
it doesn't actually give you any xp
I been playing since yesterday
@lunar lynx awe it's okay man thankyou tho ...let's play later then
I went from lvl 7 to 10 in offline mode
it shows you that you did but it really doesn't give you the XP
if you check it out it'll be back down to 7
I'll second that. You dont get exp in offline.
Not that exp is worth anything anyways, to a point
it's worth quite a lot actually, quests, hideout and obviously traders
and how DARE you forget the glorious lvl 69 jeans
why is found in raid important?
anyone want to explain the game to me just bought it ? pm me
you mean for quests?
@solemn pike for quests
quest items
This game really does go a lot deeper than first impressions oh my
Important question: How can a player shoot through the iron-nets that u walk on 2floor of trainstation @ reserve train station?
high pen rounds
that does the trick?
my friend was under 2 enemies that were camping up there and they started shooting him and he tried to shoot back with BT bullets with no avail
they kinda killed him shooting him while he was under them
so these players had best bullets in their guns?
that would be my assumption, yes
Sacriel said on his stream its impossible to shoot through that iron net
most likely got outplayed
then it’s likely that they are either cheating or you got shot from else where
there was nobody else in trainstation
i had other corners covered
we had complete control over that place
you were on customs correct?
Trainstation @ reserve
no.
my friend was in a spot that cant be shot from anywhere else but that highground
no windows no holes no doors
ah. well. dont know.
so how often are long range/snipers on customs/shoreline/reserve
generally avoided these maps because of how open it is
How much is crowbar worth at flea?
woods is generally the map with the most long range
reserve has a big Dome wich attracts a lot of snipers too
shoreline also has a big open area, which is mostly empty. People mostly go to the resort in Shoreline , and that's close combat
customs is a beginner map, but a hard one really, it's a map with a lot of choke points and high traffic areas
Crowbar isn't worth a whole lot
@quartz turtle and @weary badge
is there anything worth on the outskirts of shoreline?
outskirts? you mean the actual shoreline on shoreline? or the forest part of shoreline
anything outside of the resort lol
well, the little pier has some nice loot
but in general, if you're avoiding resort, shoreline isn't worth it. If you're in need of good loot, give interchange a try, on scav run. Loot a couple of stores for 400k ish each run
i usually do interchange
just got out of a scav run
it spawned me on the freeway next to exfil with 12 mins left

it happens 🙂 I usually spawn inside with 30+ minutes left. I get out with 700k worth of loot everytime
if I get lucky with keys, I might even get 1m
if you're VERY lucky, you'll find a dead killa that hasn't been looted
What map has fuel spawns? If any do
some do yeah, I think reserve has a couple
reserve tends to have a lot of hideout materials and resources
Ok I’ll have to take a look and search for locations.
@night oasis interchange oli
interchange terrifies me early in the raid
pretty much find fuel every time
so many open spots with choke points between spawns
spawning at emercom usually means the two different groups next to me converge on me
@quartz turtle , interchange is fine 🙂 most thic boiis are on the top floor getting the real high tier loot 🙂 shops like Rasmussen and Tekno are mostly fine, as well as the medical shops/units that spawn a lot of good stuff
i usually try for techlight
lol
found a gpu in oli computer room though, after someone failed to kill ole naked me with fmj rounds
shoved that thing up the butt
mhmm i love shoving gpus up my ass
whats a good scope for a vss?
@vale arrow I read that so out of context
@rose zinc might have been intentional who knows
well in that case its fine then 😂
Here is a post-raid healing chart I just made, hope it helps.
what are raiders?
!wiki raiders
whats the best shadow settings?
off
I have mine on low and reach of 40 gives such higher fps anyway
reach of 40?
yep
how long do insurers keep your items?
It depends on who you insure with, I believe therapist is 24-48 hours and costs more, prapor is 24-72 hours?
Unless you mean how long it stays in your mail, then it's like 3 days
yeah I understood it as how long they keep the items in ur mail
when is the next wipe?
4 months or so
Server issues most likely idk🤷
Most likely a vehicle extract somebody has taken?
Difficult to know without you saying what exfil
If it is a non question mark exfil then ignore the color
Exits without question marks are guaranteed
It was road to customs on shoreline, however worked fine
Correct it's a guaranteed exit. Color means nothing
ah i see, thx
Anyone mind teaching me some things ingame? Been playing about a week and I've never escaped...lol
@strong sequoia I have been playing less than that and barely accidently escaped once
@rose zinc Yeah I've lost pretty much all the gear I got from the start lol. Apparently I'm trash at this game
@strong sequoia join the club I reset my account to get my starting stuff back....hey if you want we could try learn the game together as to not feerl too bad for being trash lol
@vagrant mirage
Insurers differ little.
Prapor is cheaper, takes 24-36h (19-25h with Intelligence 2) for return and keeps it 3 days.
Therapist costs more, gives it back in 12-24 (i think 9 or 10 to 19h with int2) and keeps it up to two weeks i believe.
so I could get back to as if I never started since I lost so bad
Why cant i look for a team when i try to go Factory customs etc...
apparently its borked atm
Do you click ready or do you click through 'next'?
Ofc i click frue next
And i restered the game started it back up and it said something in russian about my internet lol
shrugs
Pretty new to the game myself so if anyone wants to team up when the servers are back online let me know
server connection lost ALL DAYYYYY sick man
@nimble jungle I'm down
First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesn’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.

fuck these servers so hard
be up or be down
dont discon me every 2 minutes mid fucking raid
So me and another player scav killed each other simultaneously
How does that even work
Kill trade
shoot at the same time?
fuck this man
lost 800k in gear
to discons
fucking stupid
@weary badge Bullets dont travel instantly.
Are there any ways to cheese 3 levels?
27 atm need 30 but every task I have now is doodoo
is there a task that rewards me with two levels of charisma ? like the task that rewards two levels of health
@crisp snow you get a fair amount of exp if you can farm raiders effectively and survive. Otherwise just tasks and survivals with plenty of kills
Best ammo for OP SKS???
why do ppl use the small red flashlight ?
sks bad
@old ledge 7.62 BP if you wallet is not burning, PS if it burning
Charisma search everything. Pick up everything even the junk then drop the junk.

VSS is so bad so im swapping to the OP SKS
Vss bad?
What is ads?
aim down sights
ah makes sense, cheers
How is the vss bad its fantastic😂 @old ledge
Sounds like he was maybe trying to single tap the VSS
VSS lit
The VSS is HORRIBLE
cough
Legit had SP6 ammo in took 20 bullets to kill a scav
well you miss yeah
aim at him 
shoot his face -.,-
only takes 1-2 rounds
if you can't kill somebody under 100-150m with a vss, good luck hitting them with an sks
dont aim next to him, aim on him
I binned all my VSSs after that raid
@waxen forge thank you i will start doing that xd
plus if you are not used to the vss m/s hitting targets past 50-75m is hard
thats why u just cqc
1st time saw some 1 said Vss suc
To each their own.
vss is p fun at range if you bother getting good with it
dont be like the sweds and put banana on pizza
Banana peppers.
no like bananas
I like bananas on pizza
how do you feel being wrong
Yuck
I feel pretty good with my personal opinion, thank you very much.
hello, my and my mate are in kiba rn and we are pretty sure that killa is in front of the store, what to we do?

Also what's a good map to start? Like to get knowledged in, loot in etc?
hmm
probably, that's quite strange
Also link your twitch account while you're there
Customs is kinda necessary to learn early, because most of your early quests are there. After that, probably best to learn a map to make money on. Reserve, Shoreline, and Interchange can be good for making money. Having a map on a second screen or device is the easiest way to learn maps and extracts, especially if you run around in offline mode for a bit with the map open. In game maps are worthless. Also, offline mode can be good to help you learn how to fight scavs. @bold kernel
I really hate big maps cause I can't figure out where tf I am tbh
I liked Factory as its small
but god its a fucking hell there
Factory isn't really a beginner map, contrary to popular belief/the fact it small.
Factory is basically Cod 4 Shipment but inside
It is hell, and you need to know where each player spawns and be able to tell where someone is on that map instantly when someone shoots. It is rough, and there's basically no loot. People only go there for quests and pvp
The safe gave me a roller and a gold chain once
that is what, maybe 150k? I mean, it is good, but there are other maps that have more that one spot with decent loot. I'd say Customs, Interchange, Shoreline, Labs, Woods, and Reserve have better loot
does anyone do lab sherpa runs?
where is the green key room on labs?
why are fuel containers the same price whether empty or full?
you can use the empty ones to make mag cases
you need two, but the mag cases sell for 300k+
!wiki labs
@stray frigate theres a map on there somewhere with all the rooms i think
also, people are little shits and try to scam noobs into buying the empty metal ones. Always double click on it to see how much fuel it has before you buy.
will crafting in hideout count towards found in raid?
so use the fuel then craft when its empty?
yeah the blue ones
mag cases are like 50-70k profit
can you actually get in game scavs to find you loot?
technically yeah
but in reality u just pay a set amount of roubles and after an x amount of time u get random loot back
which can be huge profit
but also loss sometimes
never knew that existed
@ancient falcon
I got this from using moonshine (230k roubles payed)
and got a nice profit
you paid 230k once and got all that?
Is all random though..
does it go in your stash or inventory in game?
ohh thats good
however u can also lose money it's random
Like playing lotto to get rich
is it mostly loss?
got just a veprkm out of Intel once was kinda sad
I just use flippin 6k
Last time I did a 70k I got a toz
And yes that was exaggeration
the 6k or 100 rouble options are generally always profit
I got something less than what I paid for
rest is really just luck
but Intel seems to very bad for me but could just be rng
it's more or less just a fun little thing to do, I love the scav case
but it won't make u rich
what does wipe have to do with upgrading
the sales count towards upgrades too
yeaH
I meant maybe they'll set up a sale again during wipe since it attracts new players @split vapor
but it's just speculation really
is the tank helmet good?
no
should i sell it then?
ok ty
never sell anything to ragman, sell it to skier
you can level up ragman by buying armor and reselling it to flea
buy a bunch of these, can sell it on flea for 9k
Punisher 5
When your helmet has a higher armor class than your vest
silencer for sr-25?
how much is the lk.asr key worth more or less?
Do raiders kill player scavs?
Ok so a scav killed me..After I was attacked and killed a scav..Was I attacked because I looted a scav?
Just did a really good Reshala run im so happy 😄
raiders kill anything
bosses kill anything
don't matter what you are
scavs kill you if you killed a scav. if you kill a player scav (which is hard to tell) then they won't kill you.
Oh, guess they were raiders then, thanks
yeah reshalas gun isn't that good
imma keep this gold pistol til' the day I die. I have killed the boss before but he has never dropped it for me 😛
my goal is to get a whole pistol case full of them
should I keep the Altyn helmet?
and the Zsh
lol i'll sell em
damn i made 700k from that run
is 12:39 in army time dark or morning
military time*
It’s midday
ok
Need some help for labs
For prapor quests, finding a bronze pocket watch, and a truck key, can I buy those on flea?
there's what you need to do
What's the best well to tell you're 100 meters away from a dude 
Walk 100 meters towards him and see if you can touch him
xD
any useful answers ? 🤦
It's most likely legit guessing
What vendors should I grind, now that I'm kind of comfortable with gameplay? I was told Prapor for the eventual Gamma case upgrade
you cant upgrade to gamma 
what can u upgrade to?
I'm not sure of the name, I just know it's Punisher quest related
beta, epsilon & then Kappa
isnt kappa a gamma?
how much
!wiki gamma
4x3?
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Secure_container_Gamma
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page gamma for a direct link or !wiki search gamma for a list of all hits.
So Prapor gives epsilon, but are there other vendors I should work for while eventually getting Epsilon?
Not sure how long running or hard the quest is
#weapon-modding Got a question posted there about modding
Would appriciate some help
So is the Bronze Pocket Watch just rng on scavs, or ground stashes?
it spawns uhh
bruh
Is it possible to change my installation path post install?
I want to move the game to my SSD
to minimize the load times and all
How much should a full IFAK sell for? The quality is throwing average cost way outta whack
@bold kernel it sucks but just uninstall it to make sure its all sound
can you only use the Skull lock mount for the N-15? or can you put them on a helmet?
@bold kernel i liked it better as a good merlot
kekw
what's the best way to sell kitted out weapons I find in raids? the flea market is crammed with all types and builds. hard to decipher the price tag and if it'll even get bought
take off the mods and sell it stock
What's the default install path then? @flint nexus
and then just sell the mods separately?
is Oxul Raider name or some camping kiddo?
@lament quarry you can set the search to only find ifaks with 100% use left. add that to search parameters and then sort by lowest
does the m700 need magazines or just ammo?
ah right
just killed a level 46 with a min recoil ak74n...he was running pp ammo
PP stands for Piss Poor
hello, just did a scav run and got lots of stuff, when i try move the items into my stash im getting error 228 - itemsmoving: Nnot found client item [item] , is there a way around this? Got stuff that's worth quite a bit and want to keep.
Wait someone else responded to him
Hello, is there a good way to make money other than scaving/shoreline? I'm kind of a new player.
Can you extract as a group using armored train on reserve
Yes
Anyone wanna play with me in Europe? plz @ me
