Yea infested if you haven't already you should look into watching pestilys raid series on YouTube start at the first vid in the playlist and also there's a Dutch streamer called krashed I think that does a lot of good breakdown videos of doing well with low end gear

[spice pecan]

Woods scavs can be sneaky. But with that the AI on scavs will try to shoot you where you don’t have armor(legs and arms)

[mellow lichen]

ya i watch pestily, just finished up his whole guild from start to finish, and i am actually currently watching hardcore part 3 right now haha

hes a big one i watch, i watch deadly and kotton too

honestly, its probably me sucking ass at fps but loving this game way to much

😄

[bold kernel]

@mellow lichen watch landmark

he's one of the top players

if not the best

[serene gust]

Quattro Ace is the boy

[bold kernel]

quattro cheats

[serene gust]

Lvndmark

[bold kernel]

he uses lag

[serene gust]

No he doesn't >.<

[somber thunder]

You'll get there man just learn the maps alil better like where spawns are and high traffic areas and stuff and you'll start doin better

[bold kernel]

he does

why do u think the top right is always blurred out on his clips

[serene gust]

that;s the dumbest shit i've heard today

and some ppl have said some dumb shit in here today

[mellow lichen]

oh i know the maps, i know the pvp ammo, i have every case except thicc in the game, i just feel like im stunted, maybe im a mid/average player, struggling to understand end end game u know?

[serene gust]

arent we all

Not really much of an endgame atm

[shy fable]

How much do I sell the metal fuel tank?
it's filled 100%

[bold kernel]

90k

[spice pecan]

For real. I have 200m in stash and have never been to labs

Figured I would save it for end game, then got rich enough to not see the point in going

[olive turret]

im going to labs for 2 quests later this week i need 6 more for kappa

[serene gust]

For fun, to learn the map, to make more money?

[final glade]

i have some dorms quests.. and ideas for weapons that would be good to take in there?

any*

[bold kernel]

@final glade spray n prey bro. Also go to dorms late in raid

[final glade]

i mean that doesn't really answer my question at all but i appreciate it xD

[bold kernel]

@final glade gun doesnt really matter, you need bullets that will kill fast. for instance BP for AK, etc\

[final glade]

alrighty thankya

[bold kernel]

good bullets are expensive so if your low level then just sray

I think youu can get BT ammo from prapor, they are decent for cheap

[final glade]

i'm not low level just not great haha

i have a decent amount of money

[long haven]

The only way I can level up peacekeeper its thru skier?

[bold kernel]

buy good ammo and you will be good, you can kill in 3 bullets with good ammo. maybe 1. look at a bullet chart. look gor good bullets like m61, Bp, Sp-6, 7n39 etc

[somber thunder]

Pretty much whatever gun you're comfy with @final glade

Guns that are good close to mid range will do well there

[final glade]

alrighty cool

[vital mortar]

@long haven no, Peacekeeper got his own questline to lvl him up

[long haven]

you can only unlock it thru skier tho

[sacred vapor]

whats the best helmet to use when i can use comtacs but like 200k

[long haven]

and other quests to level up peacekeeper rep? @vital mortar

[vital mortar]

When you have completed the friends from the west quest line from skier, that unlocks quest at Peacekeeper

[bold kernel]

@sacred vapor exfil ?

[sacred vapor]

i have one right now but they are very expensive per helmet

[long haven]

@vital mortar I know, its just a grind. Any other quests can just boost his rep? say mechanic quest etc

[vital mortar]

@long haven No, if you want to increase rep like with the other dealers, you have to grind their individual quest

[wintry cloak]

So why can I not loot a knife from a pmc I killed?

[raven gazelle]

u cant take knifes of pmc

ever

[olive turret]

you cant take any melee weapons off a pmc

[raven gazelle]

ye

[wintry cloak]

So if I take my hatchet in I won’t lose it?

[olive turret]

otherwise noone would bring a Red rebel which is a rare melee weapon used in two extracts

[raven gazelle]

ye

[olive turret]

no you wont lose it

unless you drop it and its not insured

[wintry cloak]

Awesome, thanks

[final meadow]

does barter trade work towards "money spent" with a trader?

[hidden mortar]

Yes it does bucz

Wait, barter? No

[whole ocean]

With a wipe approaching and Labs getting reworked into Streets of Tarkov, I am doing an all-out first-time Labs raid with a somewhat modded m4 and 4m in the bank (As well as 12500 Dollars) I was wondering what armoured rig, helmet, headphones and meds etc I should take. I am about to hit lv 15

[bold kernel]

good luck, lots of hackers, especialy euro servers

[olive turret]

labs is getting reworked into streets??

[whole ocean]

Oceania

[bold kernel]

@olive turret its a rumer right now, but its coming from partily who knows one of the devs well

[whole ocean]

Yeah you go streets then find labs and back out of labs into streets

[bold kernel]

pestily

[whole ocean]

Comtacs?

[bold kernel]

comtacs, exfil, slick body armor, salewa

[whole ocean]

Is exfil helmet?

[bold kernel]

would bring a silencer too

exfil helmet with faceshield, yes

or the tan helmets, forgot the name

[whole ocean]

True but I don’t know what ammo are tracers

[bold kernel]

look at an ammo chart on the wiki

[whole ocean]

Is vasoline just painkillers

[sonic lake]

yes

[whole ocean]

And what goes in alpha?

[bold kernel]

m4 is m995

m995 ammo

[whole ocean]

K

[sonic lake]

995 isn't tracer

[bold kernel]

bring a cms if youu have an alpha

dont use tracer, user body armour peircing ammo

[sonic lake]

oh lmao hes going labs

with an m4

and 995

[whole ocean]

Yep and what mag size

[sonic lake]

yikes

youre going all out use 60s or 100s

[bold kernel]

i would say 40 or 60. messes with ergo

[whole ocean]

Cool I’m only lv 15 but I want to experience raw labs

[sonic lake]

going all out on your first labs raid is a brainlet move but im with it.

40 mags are pointless

[bold kernel]

raiders have good loot

[sonic lake]

30, 60, or overkill 100.

[bold kernel]

a SA-58 built is better

or as val

[sonic lake]

built m4 is better than built fal for low level

heres a nice tip: dont head peek raiders, unless you wanna get sent back to lobby.

[whole ocean]

Oh well I can switch guns

[sonic lake]

built m4 is better than built fal for low level

[whole ocean]

Oh ok

I guess I’m not doing labs again then 🤑

[olive turret]

god damn gluhar and his guards really do be that scary

[whole ocean]

How much will all this cost approx.?

[sonic lake]

a lot

[bold kernel]

500-600k i guess

[sonic lake]

considering 60 rounds of 995 is 90k

lol

set up exfil is about 200

slicks another 200

meta m4 about 200

its expensive homey

[bold kernel]

he says he already has an m4

[sonic lake]

well he wants cost

just giving overall cost for a sweaty labs raid

[whole ocean]

Well I’ll practice the map on offline

Anyway thanks for your time and hopefully I don’t die straight away 😁

[pseudo veldt]

how long is 80 metres in this game?

approximately

[sonic lake]

about 80 meters

how tf do you want me to describe 80 meters lmao

[pseudo veldt]

it's about 262 feet so go off that

[whole ocean]

lol

[sonic lake]

ok thanks bro

so its like a little bit more than 260 feet, but not more than 270 feet.

[whole ocean]

😆

there isnt really any way to measure it just hope for the best

[open lotus]

what are some good graphics settings so i can actually see people

on maps with foliage it all looks so blurry its hard to see people

[sonic lake]

it be like that

[open lotus]

its supposed to be like that?

[sonic lake]

idk but thats just how it is.

[bold kernel]

Any experienced players down to help a new player make some cash?

[loud garnet]

my laptop was broken for a few months and I'm trash now, I reset my account a few days ago, I need help with my first quests and I need someone to make money with me and help me get better. just DM me if anyone is down to play

[lapis tangle]

omfg.

Someone tried to geek me on Reserve.

I just kept going, and I lost them in a building.

I head for cliff extract since I'm basically hatchet running, and lo and behold, but I see a geared guy sitting on the stairs, looking right at me.

I look at him, wiggle, then keep running to cliff. He just squats and watches me leave.

I, however, get to watch him get shot in the back of the head by someone else. Maybe a scav? I dunno.

[whole ocean]

woah bro, that's crazy

but who asked?

[sonic lake]

DAMN everyone must have Alzheimers here cause nobody remembers asking

[narrow perch]

if i close marked room, will i hear others open it again or no>?

[whole ocean]

ERROR! Your point has not loaded. Please try again

[tacit juniper]

carbonemysa

[whole ocean]

@narrow perch They will at least know someone has unlocked it so planning an ambush inside might not work and outside they will be extra cautious

[open lotus]

i bought all gunsmith pt4 stuff from wiki and it says moe sl does not go with 260mm

when on wiki it says those parts

[subtle basin]

does 5L propane tank work as hideout generator fuel?

[lapis tangle]

@crisp anvil

[final glade]

everyone talks about how strong the vss and val are, what is the point of using an m4 then?

[rough comet]

cheaper

[somber thunder]

some people dont like using the vss and val just because of how good they are

[flat cipher]

its frustrating being killed by one

[exotic portal]

Im in tarkov reserve

i got a red rebel

i went cliff and im there but it just turns green

why am i not extracting

cliff decent **

[solid gulch]

you need RR + paracord

[magic urchin]

Can I get a duo for shoreline I need to do signal part one

[exotic portal]

I got a para cord @solid gulch

its quite early in the game

can that be it

[solid gulch]

maybe

[magic urchin]

Anyone?

[exotic portal]

yeah i extracted think it was

Lmao i cant believe i didnt die, a fat stacked thicc boi looked at me

Think he felt nice

[azure iron]

@exotic portal You need red rebel and paracord. You cannot climb in body armor.

[exotic portal]

Thanks

[blissful crypt]

@hollow torrent are you still looking?

[rigid ore]

anyone down to help run a few

[drowsy egret]

iM DOWN

[bold kernel]

anyone want to run interchange?

@rigid ore you still looking?

[drowsy egret]

Anyone keen to play reserve at night with me?

[frail notch]

Anyone really rich wanna help a broke boy

I tried doing reserve and got sniped 3 times in a row from someone on dome with a thermal

[drowsy egret]

Does anyone ever even answer on here?Maybe my typing is invisible to others?

[dire rock]

your not invisible lol

from what i can see its just been bad timing

@drowsy egret

[strong barn]

anyone got experience on reserve?

Looking for help deciding extra keys someone recommends
These are what I have atm

[drowsy egret]

ok thanks

[dire rock]

sorry cant help ya there, i dont really go for keys or reserve all that much

[frail notch]

Keep the two marked room keys

Keep RB-ST

Just keep them all they all have there uses depnding on spawns

[dim ridge]

what room is red keycard spawn on shoreline?

and blue^

[dire rock]

218/220 for red i believe

dont know about blue

[strong barn]

@frail notch Thanks ! I tried to get a few from different corners but I was hoping this selection wasnt shit. Appreciate your input <3

[raw vault]

Gamers

[tepid fossil]

Blue- office east- 107 west- 112,104 @dire rock

[dire rock]

i dont run shoreline but thx

[austere elbow]

fuck man, i'm sold on the HK

the fire rate is just too good

i'm sick and tired of the AK family and their goddamn 10, 10.5 rounds per second bullshit

at this point i bring an AK when I wanna die

[rough comet]

🤢

[austere elbow]

honestly same 🤮

the only redeeming factor would be the ammunition diversity with all the variants

because buying BP rounds feel nicer than buying 885A1s

[rough comet]

i use whatever i find because im poor as shit

so if i find an AK in a raid and i extract

ima go back in with it lmao

[austere elbow]

do you like spraying with it

[rough comet]

nah

i just tap heads

[austere elbow]

do you like tapping with it

[rough comet]

like i did a run earlier

aks-74u i picked up off a body with bs rounds, got 9 one tap headshots

[austere elbow]

maybe i'm just traumatized from all the fights i lost with an AK

[rough comet]

im going back into factory with the same gun xD

except i have BT

[austere elbow]

dont get me wrong i think it's a great gun, and a lot of people love it in real life

but if i wanna kill the other guy, i'll shill out the extra 30k on the base for that HK

and if I wanna tap I will get an adar over an sks

the only russian thing i like in this game so far is the BEAR tac clothes

[dire rock]

nothing wrong with an AK ive gunned down plenty of bois with Bt ammo

if its not working for u its either bad modding or operator error

[rough comet]

i can go barebones ak with bt ammo on factory

and safley excratc with 10+ kils

[dire rock]

i dont touch factory unless im bored or scavving

[austere elbow]

i'm probably way below the average skill level

[rough comet]

yeah im bored asf just trying to pvp

[austere elbow]

but still, at this point I stay away from bad russian juju

[rough comet]

im streaming and tired asf

[dire rock]

bud you can drag an AK through mayo and load it with rocks it would still fire like brand new XD

[austere elbow]

oh yeah

irl it's great

it's like a fucking framing hammer

works really well, and takes a bigger hammer to break it

[dire rock]

Hks and M4s are great but the ammo and the price to mod them effectively makes them just ineffective for bringing every raid

bad phrasing

[austere elbow]

I run more or less the same mods on my american guns as on the AK

only difference being the stock and the buttpad

[dire rock]

they have completely different mods tho?

[rough comet]

yup i only bring hk's and m4's if im going to labs or killing raiders on reserve

[dire rock]

^^

[austere elbow]

a lot of it is interchangeable for budget builds though

[rough comet]

i bring ak/ sr1mp if im going for loot xD

[dire rock]

if your going budget you prob shouldnt be touching an Hk or m4 lol

[austere elbow]

like CWB muzzle iirc, and the RK-0 foregrip

[rough comet]

ak=cheap and easy to use

[dire rock]

there ya go

[rough comet]

hk=expensive but very good and meant for higher armor kills

and m4

i will tell you i love running a glock 18c NcStar tactical blue laser and 50 round drum mags with luger CCI

that is OP

[austere elbow]

that gun is nuts

[dire rock]

until you get shot by an AS VAL on factory

[austere elbow]

but it fires so fast

[dire rock]

who tf brings an AS VAL to factory

[rough comet]

or or or i love this PM

[austere elbow]

oh god

[rough comet]

84 round PM

[austere elbow]

damn russian guns

[rough comet]

ultimate meme

[austere elbow]

tbh i dont mind the apb pistol though

i usually strictly run m9a3 for pistol runs but the apb is alright

[rough comet]

i ONLY bring that pm ONLY bring it out if im going on a labs run and i know im going to upgrade within the first kill

or i bring the sr1mp

[dire rock]

only use for a pistol ive found is a signaling device

[austere elbow]

good against AI

[dire rock]

so are all my other guns :)

[austere elbow]

yeah but they're not as cheap

[rough comet]

ok all of a sudden im being aimbot headshotted by a scav the MILISECOND it sees me

[dire rock]

well idk about you but im about done getting aimbotted by those fckers to i dont risk no damn pistol

[austere elbow]

in a vacuum where you get to 1vX AIs, pistols are pretty alright

ofc since tarkov isn't single player it's not always the case but still

[rough comet]

is it just me or do yall also run on customs and long range maps a cheap ar and a sniper

or is it just me

[dire rock]

buddy

bring a hunter to interchange

youll be rich

[rough comet]

nah dude

i would bring a mosin nagant honeslty

i have a much better shot

[dire rock]

not really

[rough comet]

with lps ghz rounds

[dire rock]

ineffective at close range and bolt action makes follow uup shots harder

plus use 7N1 if your going to use a mosin

[rough comet]

i dont need follow up shots

😉

[dire rock]

what if ya miss???

[rough comet]

i dont

[dire rock]

uhuh

[rough comet]

i always hit dome

[dire rock]

ight hawkeye

[rough comet]

or i dont shoot

[flat cipher]

You definitely miss

[dire rock]

you be over there playing sniper elite ill take my 308

[rough comet]

i dont tho

[flat cipher]

Nobody is 100% accurate

[rough comet]

not with the mosin

[flat cipher]

You definitely, 100% miss.

[rough comet]

nope

[flat cipher]

Might not be often, but you do

Nobody is that accurate

[rough comet]

i played to much PUBG and battle royals to miss a shot with a sniper

[dire rock]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[flat cipher]

okay

LMAOOO

You miss, everyone misses

[rough comet]

damn b how fast did you type in that HAHA

[dire rock]

almost like those gun mechanics are trash

[flat cipher]

I've had a SINGLE raid

In nearly 700h

[dire rock]

im on ze computer

[rough comet]

i mean you ever played MnK pubg?

[flat cipher]

Where I didn't miss

[dire rock]

MnK/

[flat cipher]

I fail to believe you have landed every single shot

[dire rock]

ffs i cant type

[rough comet]

mouse and keyboard

[dire rock]

yeah

[rough comet]

pubg

[dire rock]

my AK went to the fcking moon after one shot XD

[rough comet]

you would see how the gun physics in that game and this game are NEAR identical

[flat cipher]

HAHAHAHA

[dire rock]

negative

[flat cipher]

get the fuck out that's so far from the truth

[rough comet]

take the glock 18 for example

this has a much higher recoil for the gun than pubg does

which is unrealistic

[flat cipher]

....

[dire rock]

as my good friend appsro put it "looking like a game made by a dude dumb as shit and dont know what bullets do"

ah yes shot in the face my helmet with no Fshield caught that

[rough comet]

oh yeah i forget bullets dont drop from 350+ meters

[flat cipher]

If you think pubg is a good benchmark then yeah yikies

[rough comet]

nor do you have to lead shots either

[dire rock]

in tarkov?

[rough comet]

wait harry why are you even in begginer chat lmao

[flat cipher]

pubg vss loaded with 9x19 btw

Realistic

[rough comet]

we were talking about pubg

your friend says

[dire rock]

yeah this aint the chat XD

[rough comet]

"looking like a game made by a dude dumb as shit and dont know what bullets do"

[dire rock]

its quiet ig

[flat cipher]

I'm in beginners chat because this is where I'm at?

[dire rock]

its from a YT video lol

[flat cipher]

I'm allowed to be here just as much as you are

This isn't a beginner safe haven

[dire rock]

appsro is part of neebs gaming

[rough comet]

but its not meant for mega experienced players either xD

[flat cipher]

Yes it is

[rough comet]

ive been playing for 3 days how long you been playing for?

[flat cipher]

Read the channel description in beginners chat and then try that one again

[dire rock]

"searching for a guide to help you with your path in tarkov?"

its players helping newer people

[rough comet]

is harry helping with a path to tarkov?

[rough comet]

neither of yall are helping xD

[flat cipher]

At the top,

Beginners and vets

[dire rock]

did you ask for help? lol

bc ill happily answer any questions i can

[rough comet]

i have multiple times in this chat but its just been chit chat

[dire rock]

ight what you need then?

[rough comet]

nothing rn lmao

[flat cipher]

Mass confusion

[rough comet]

btw this isnt begginer chat

[flat cipher]

...

ok

[rough comet]

go talk in begginer chat

😉

[dire rock]

yeah this is for a "guide" aka a player whos been playing for a bit to help newer players

[flat cipher]

This is the exact kinda place I'd be even if I didn't hang around in beginners chat

Because its new players asking for help

[rough comet]

so shouldnt we be taking this convo to the BEGGINER CHAT for actual talking

[dire rock]

ye

[rough comet]

my point proven

this is for begginers looking for help

not for chit chat

[dire rock]

ok agreed

[flat cipher]

Then drop it if you're just gonna be a smart ass about it or just ask for help?

[rough comet]

dont get your panties in a bunch harry just because you are wrong

[flat cipher]

About

[rough comet]

go ahead and read the chat back

or maybe i should just ss it

[flat cipher]

????

cba u win

don't have the energy for this

[rough comet]

from bottom to top

read

[flat cipher]

[rough comet]

bottom pic to top

they sent weird

[flat cipher]

Yes I'm aware I don't see your point

[rough comet]

i was talking about this being for assistance and not for random chit chat

and you treid to say it was begginers chat

lmao

[flat cipher]

ok gamer

[rough comet]

i then prove you wrong that this channel isnt for vets to chit chat

[flat cipher]

im going to bed carry on with ur channel white knighting

hf

[rough comet]

dont cry tho i know you have a history of doing that when you are wrong in thsi channel

[flat cipher]

[rough comet]

im not gonna scroll up to it but 2 dasy ago i legit saw you almost crying in chat because another player disproved what you were saying

Miss the bit at the top there

That says beginners chat

[rough comet]

[dire rock]

yall still arguing bout this? XD

[flat cipher]

You can filter by chat you know

[rough comet]

yeah he making me go through 1718 pages of him chatting

[flat cipher]

All this because I don't believe you have perfect accuracy

[rough comet]

you dont speak in this chat eh

explains 240 pages of chat

aqnd btw ou obv dont know what a joke is if you still on that 100% accuracy

if you couldnt tell that i was joking by my responses you must just be brainded

[dire rock]

doubt

[flat cipher]

'it's a joke bro haha just kidding'

[lament sundial]

Harry I'm so fucking disappointed

[rough comet]

me fucking too

smh

[lament sundial]

I can't believe you would talk in this chat as well!

[flat cipher]

Im always disappointed :(

[lament sundial]

This is where all the noobs hang out

[dire rock]

thats why im a pessimist

[flat cipher]

Evidently so cal

[lament sundial]

They don't even get slow moded

[dire rock]

if i dont expect anything good i cant be dissapointed

[flat cipher]

Apparently I was crying in here too

[lament sundial]

Life is pain

[flat cipher]

Crazy how that happens but he can't find it

What a world

[lament sundial]

If your chat doesn't have slow mode is your channel cool? 🤔

[rough comet]

so you now want me to look through 240 pages of you chatting

yeah as if i have time for that

[flat cipher]

Then shush

[dire rock]

damn this lasted 240 pages?

[flat cipher]

Stop being a baboon

[rough comet]

i will do it tommorow if you insist

i was trying to kms on barbed wire to get out of customs

[flat cipher]

u know they're out of ideas when the salt jpeg rolls out

[dire rock]

gotta balance out the salt

[rough comet]

fax and harry i dont need ideas anymore i dropped it

keep trying to keep up

i was adding to what duth said

[lament sundial]

So dropping things runs in the family 😄

[flat cipher]

[rough comet]

funny joke that take big brain

[flat cipher]

@rough comet ping me when you find out when I was crying two days ago because I definitely wasn't

[dire rock]

damn why you gotta hit the man like that

[rough comet]

will do

[lament sundial]

I didn't hit him the floor did

Guns kill people

People die when they are killed

[rough comet]

and calcium it must run in harrys too because he said the exact same thing

[flat cipher]

Wat

[lament sundial]

Running in the Harrys

[dire rock]

this is turning into crafting dead all chat, one day someone will know what that is :(

[rough comet]

thats him wanting to drop the convo

[lament sundial]

Look at all these straws you have grasped

There are dozens of them!

[flat cipher]

[rough comet]

si!

im ngl i kinda like it when one is getting fucked up so bad the other one has to step in

and harry are you using discord on your phone?

[dire rock]

hold up whos getting "fucked up"?

[rough comet]

harry

if you havent been reading the entire convo

now all he can say is insults

meaning i am winning casue he is trying to attack moral

[flat cipher]

[rough comet]

morale*

[dire rock]

i dont think theres a winner here

this has all been pretty dumb

[flat cipher]

it was never a competition

[rough comet]

debate not a comp

[dire rock]

debates have winners though

this was just aimless banter

that for some reason i was bored enough to get involved in

[lament sundial]

That was a good pun

Since this conversation started off about aim

aimless banter

I like it

[dire rock]

:) someone understands me

[flat cipher]

@rough comet u win well done

bored now

[rough comet]

fragging in fact sorry

and yes

[spark hawk]

So like what loot can be found on shoreline? Never played it looking to play a new map

[rough comet]

pvp type beat

[spark hawk]

Gotcha I’ll give it a few scav runs and see how it feels

[dire rock]

@spark hawk loot wise the health resort has plenty keys to unlock spawns for you name it also a lot of free weapons cases and random bags as well as a lot of hardware and bags around the villages,

[spark hawk]

I do have quiet a few resort keys

[mint junco]

shoreline is a waste of time mostly without the right keys

but there is some unlocked rooms that can spawn some nice things, and ofc the red keycard locations that i never see them spawn in

[spark hawk]

Does shoreline have a scav boss?

[red sedge]

@spark hawk not yet

Supposed to be getting added in the near future

[gritty tusk]

What happens to my dogtag if i die?

[whole ocean]

gets taken

[icy dust]

you know it's tarkov when your shots dont register

[past pulsar]

I'm level 20 and have good gamesense and gear. Can run any map although I've only ran lab 6 times.

[final glade]

what are ak's good for? genuine question, like why would you use an ak

[clear vortex]

effective and cheap

[bold kernel]

Ak are effective and cost effecient

Yeah what he said

But it really comes down to what you want to play every gun plays difftent like the other so it boil down to personal choice

[final glade]

could i have an opinion on what a good ak to try is then? theres like 50 lol

[supple lake]

It just boils down to do you want the 7.62 or the 5.45 ammo

i usually like 5.45 more

[final glade]

i'm not really sure, the guns i use the most are the m1a vss and m4

trying to maybe branch out a bit

[supple lake]

just get an AK74N and mod it to have like over 45 ergo and under 875 recoil sum

[final glade]

okay i'll try that

😄 thanks

[bold kernel]

Just rem it very diffrent to a m4 since you use that so learn the spray

[whole ocean]

I was wondering if a can see what scopes can fit on what rails without putting them together

[final glade]

rem it?

what do you mean by rem :o?

[prisma stirrup]

I reallyyyy like the ak102 with nato ammo

[bold kernel]

Remember*

@whole ocean yes right click the rail and do link search it will have scopes you can use

[final glade]

thats what ive got goin righ tnow

[supple lake]

I like using Kobra sights too

[final glade]

didnt realize how much worse the ammo would be compared to m4 ammo haha

[slim kelp]

Can anyone recommend a cheap but half decent setup to run on something like a 74n please?

Tried making a preset myself but I always end up around 140k R and I don't have that to blow on one gun right now lol

[bold kernel]

It depends the thing i notice is m4 ammo you can use the decent ammo and still shred the ak ammo i feel this late in the wipe you cant use crappy ak bullets

[pseudo veldt]

whenether I raid shoreline there are always rats that loot all the rooms

and then I extract with the raid being a waste of time

[bold kernel]

That why it called snoreline lol

[chilly nova]

Is US ammo(subsonic) any good at the moment? It sounds mostly the same, just low velocity and dmg

[pseudo veldt]

is reserve a better map

for loot

and pvp

[toxic oar]

when a player scav kills an AI do all scavs turn hostile?

or just the ones next to you

[pseudo veldt]

yes

[bold kernel]

Reserve has mark rooms full of cases (if you have the key), graphic cards so decent loot however it has a scav boss who hurts a ton of player scavs and pmc full kitted most the time

[pseudo veldt]

the ones next to you

[toxic oar]

ok good, sometimes i need that adar or ak so can kill some raiders

[bold kernel]

Also the extracts are terrible if you dont have paracord or a red rebel

And*

[toxic oar]

ya also the exfil campers are everywehre

[pseudo veldt]

is the red rebel icepick worth it for just that extraction

[bold kernel]

Yes 100%

[pseudo veldt]

it is 4 mil

[main pagoda]

Why can’t you look the rr I see it all the time

Loot*

[bold kernel]

It makes the raid extremelt easy and profitable rarely does anyone camp that extract and if they do you would kno it because they will snipr guys off the dish

[pseudo veldt]

you can't loot the scabard

[bold kernel]

You cant loot melee wpns off players

[main pagoda]

oh

If you die does it get returned? Even if it’s uninsured?

Or insured I guess

[proven valley]

you never lose whats in your melee slot

[bold kernel]

Melee wpns stay with you as long as you dknt take it off the slot

[main pagoda]

Ohhh

[proven valley]

so it stays with you without needing to be insures. Just dont unequip it

insured* wow

[pseudo veldt]

do you find the red rebel from the woods boss by the way?

is that why there are fully geared players there?

[bold kernel]

So there a few ways

Woods scav boss, you can also find them in big green crates

Personally id just go make money and buy it

[pseudo veldt]

does the red rebel icepick have a 100% chance of dropping

from shturman

[regal plover]

No

[pseudo veldt]

what is the chance?

[bold kernel]

There no % from what i can find online

[silent temple]

Has anyone done the math on air filtering unit effect for str leveling? ie, current cost of the filter, grenades needed to break even, number of raids at 8 nades per raid, etc

[proven valley]

When it says hand over 4 shotguns to Skier does that mean sell? It doesn't let me just give him one like i can Salewa's with Therapist. Do I have to give him 4 at the same time??

[regal plover]

No and no. You hand them over just like you did with therapist. Do you have the right type of shotguns?

[proven valley]

It just says "Shotguns"

Ohp, description says TOZes

rip

[regal plover]

The devil is in the details.

[proven valley]

ty Orbb

[prisma stirrup]

yselias, i found a quick way to do it, buy them from prapor for 8k and turn them in

nvm u buy from skier

[dusk nebula]

Does sj1 level strength

[toxic oar]

has anyone been stuck in "awaiting session start" before?

[olive turret]

@dusk nebula no its just a temporary boost to strength

[dusk nebula]

@olive turret so it doesn't contribute to leveling strength in anyway :(

[olive turret]

No

[dusk nebula]

Oof

[chrome nova]

what is the chance?
@pseudo veldt Pestily did 100 openings of Sturman stash and found RR about 3 or 4 times. No one knows what percentage of finging RR on Shturman itself. I found one after 3rd time killing him

[cursive shoal]

That feeling when you finally survive a raid after 3 days on reserve... felt like I won the lotto. Holy hell it's been rough lately for me

[chrome nova]

Yesterday I finally passed "The Guide" quest - all maps in a row without dying, wheeew, that was fun

[cursive shoal]

I have that on my to do list, currently stuck trying to kill Glukhar... screw that guy

[chrome nova]

Annoying that bosses spawns like 50% of the time

[cursive shoal]

Not just that, I run into groups of 2-4 all the time trying to find him, or avoid those guys and they beat me to him, or his guards face tap me

[chrome nova]

you need to team up with someone

i can help you with Reserve a little later, a lot of work next couple hours

[cursive shoal]

I'm at work for the next 7 hours still

I appreciate the offer though

[chrome nova]

np, kick me in the evening if you still struggling

[cursive shoal]

I shall. I've only played solo, started playing in February and completed most quests just by brute force of attempts lol

[hexed sky]

Is the AKMS basically the same platform as the AKM when it comes to mods?

[bold kernel]

everything except the stock

[hexed sky]

Cool thank you

[final meadow]

How did you guys complete "delivery from the past"? Is it even possible solo? I can retrieve the docs but I keep dying, either on customs or factory before I can deliver it.

[cursive shoal]

Brute force Bucz, I did a nighttime factory run, hid as long as I could, ran up with like 2 minutes left in raid, planted and ran out with like 15 seconds left

[spring basalt]

has anyone got a CPU with the found in raid status i need 1 and havent found one in like 50 raids

[cursive shoal]

Drop down tech room on reserve, people always leave em

[sacred vapor]

the l321 red light i cant see if its on or off its that dim any way to make it more visible e.g: settings

[sullen forum]

whats this item?

[sacred vapor]

Middle mouse click on it

[bold kernel]

Whats the best method to get money ? Ive got yesterday lvl 10 so that if i need thing for the "money runs" i can buy them from flea market. I have currently 244k

[sacred vapor]

with the l321 red light off

vs it on

any way to make it more visible

[void saffron]

kill 15 scavs on woods

is kicking my ass rn lol

how many scoped mozins can a man lose

[final meadow]

do you need a scoped mosin to kill scavs?

[void saffron]

i mean no

but

[final meadow]

I did that with a pistol

kill 1 scav

grab his gear

kill more

if you die, you dont care

[void saffron]

it's

not the same

but that was my plan after my 4th mozin

[lime glen]

going to run some reserve/willing to help new people if needed/mature players only! im level 43 this is my 5th wipe/dm me for invite

[small orbit]

Does anyone have a good map or video on the players spawns on labs I'm learning the map and I played it a few times now its Hella fun so I want to play more but idk the player spawns

[silver bolt]

https://preview.redd.it/b2k5tnby4c721.png?width=2048&format=png&auto=webp&s=bc159bdc417de5ff9c96d081e58151e0b8543545

only one i could find

[tepid fossil]

You’re probably better off learning labs naturally

[spice pecan]

But if you want to learn this map, learn Russian first

[small orbit]

yeah thats the only one i was able to find as well

[last marsh]

there's an English one I vaguely remember from last patch

I'll try to find it

[chrome nova]

https://www.gamemaps.co.uk/game/tarkov

you can find it here

[nova basin]

i need someone to learn wothj

with

lvl8

[proven fable]

@nova basin

sure

[final glade]

i've heard the m4 just has straight up less recoil than the ak, but i moded an ak74n for around 170k and an m4 for like 300k and they have almost identical stats

[dire rock]

It’s fire rate, ammo, and the difference in recoil that makes the M4 better

Then Hks are just better M4s

[final glade]

gotcha... guess i'm either modding the m4 wrong or modding the ak right or something lol

[dire rock]

AKs are cheap reliable and effective

m4s just have more potential

[final glade]

i just didnt think the stats would be the same with a 120k difference in price lol

essentially same stats except m4 is liek 310k and ak is 180 lol

[bold kernel]

@final glade but they both shoot differently yes AK is cheaper because M4 is meta but you can get really good ergo and recoil with the m4 that like shooting a lazer

[final glade]

thats what i mean though, i must have to spend an enormous amount of money to make the m4 that good if i already spent way more for the m4 and its just even

[naive atlas]

@final glade its chasing the best last few %

[final glade]

i gotcha

yeah i did notice the difference between like 70 recoil and 58 to actually be quite noticeable

so i guess every bit counts

[dire rock]

yeah the recoil is noticable

tbh i wouldnt reccomend an M4 for many raids due to the cost of its ammo and the cost of modding, but if you want to go with some gear and arent afraid of spending some money its a good option

and if your wondering the reason the m4 is so expensive to mod is bc of how much demand there is for the parts

[final glade]

gotcha gotcha

[bold kernel]

the high tier ammo is expensive yes but tbh a solid m4 with good ergo and good recoil m885A1 will still do the trick I use it that ammo and ive had no issue killing anyone

[spark hawk]

Is anybody really spending 1500 runs on 995 tho

[bold kernel]

they are not most people i kill with m4 have m885a1

[spark hawk]

M885a1 works great

[dire rock]

i dont use 995, if i run anything 5.56 its either m855 or 56 for me

but i run mostly .308 or 5.45

or an smg if im feeling fancy

[final glade]

i know my friends spend money on the super expensive bullets

i can't imagine benig richj enoiugh to do that but yeahlol

[dire rock]

youll be able to eventually

thats if you want to i would never lol

[worn coyote]

Hello guys, i've been playing for 3 days yet, any tips on how to understand and know game better?

[limpid yoke]

whats the key for quick discard

[bold kernel]

@worn coyote so I watch alot of youtubers on how they fight that a great way to learn combat there alot of them who use diffrent type of guns operatordrewski, and sloppybeard are great ones to watch in terms of how they fight

another thing is offline mode learn the map in the maps you want to main

I play only shoreline, interchange, and reserve but you might like the other ones better

[prisma stirrup]

@limpid yoke del

[subtle wing]

I'm glad I saw this. Been deciding between the Ak and m4 for rifle builds. Leaning towards the ak due to cost as much as I love m4s irl

[bold kernel]

it really is about what you want to play tbh make a m4 and a ak and try them out

[wintry cloak]

what scope can i put on a mosin? and do i buy a mount for it?

[bold kernel]

alot of people use the zenit-belomo 4x24

[wintry cloak]

i bought one but i cant get it to go on?

[dire rock]

@wintry cloak kochetov mount - arbalet patriot for normal scopes or PU 3.5x ring mount for PU rifle scope

[wintry cloak]

ok thank you

[dire rock]

use linked search on the mounts to find them easier

[worn coyote]

@bold kernel so, only watching youtubers?

[bold kernel]

I watch youtubers to learn how they move, grenade placements, and how they shoot

obv it going to come down how you play and your aim etc etc but honestly practice as much as you can

[final glade]

is there anything better i can do to this?

statwise

[stone surge]

ofcourse

that is a pretty bad optimized gun in terms of value

@final glade https://i.imgur.com/J2eaBsc.jpg

[final glade]

i was just trying to get low recoil

oh wow

[stone surge]

can even get recoil to 35-36 if you slap on a RK-2

but rk-1 is fine here

also canted rk-1 is waste of money if you're not rich

[bold kernel]

@final glade

That what i use for my m4 shoots perfectly

i play interchange and shoreline alot so alot of close range fights

[stone surge]

^ that one is more expensive and worse in terms of recoil compared to the HK i sent

[bold kernel]

and price is not bad the only expensive stuff really is the grip and silencer

[devout dock]

I had a nice suppressed gun but they stripped all the valuable parts off the gun

[bold kernel]

I dont think the stats are worst at all???

for when you are making a m4

[final glade]

veyx what do you have under the 2in casv on the barrel area?

[pseudo veldt]

what is a good loadout to kill shturman?

[stone surge]

@bold kernel You can get the recoil down to 35

for the same price as yours there

or perhaps for less.

@final glade ehh it's not my HK really, its one i found so those are not my attachments

but I generally slap on a Holosun on my 2mm

holosun laser (for infrared laser option)

[final glade]

kk thankya 😉

:)*

[stone surge]

the one in my screenshot has some scuffed laser/flashlight

or w/e xd

[final glade]

gotcha

[stone surge]

i'm drowned in HKs and m4s atm so i dont even know which one that is

[dire rock]

yeah Hk and M4 mods can get a little wonky

[bold kernel]

Im stuck in the stage in reserve

I can move about but i cant exit it

[stone surge]

yeah i'm 50/50 on selling all my HKs and m4s, since m995 prices are high af atm

[final glade]

ok i made that gun, it definitely seems good haha

[stone surge]

shoots amazingly 🙂

[final glade]

is there a certain akm that would be best for me to use for my shoreline akm quest?

i know theres like 100 types of AK's lol

[stone surge]

HK is one of the most satisfying guns to shoot with

[final glade]

yeah it feels really nice

[stone surge]

AKM in general isn't that great imo

[final glade]

i need it for a quest haha

kill scavs on shoreline with an akm

[stone surge]

i prob have a preset

sec

[bold kernel]

do presets save when it wipes?

[final glade]

i don't need a crazy one or anything just something to get the job done mostly

[stone surge]

@final glade https://i.imgur.com/G8JSxkZ.jpg

@bold kernel yes

[bold kernel]

kk

[final glade]

thanks 😄

[stone surge]

@final glade https://i.imgur.com/fjdj3ig.jpg

this is a bit cheaper

[final glade]

think thatll be expensive? i'd like around 100kish max probably

since i'm just going for scav kills with it mostly

[stone surge]

ah then i would go more budget even

[bold latch]

I don’t understand woods it’s aggravating me lol

[final glade]

i have tokill 15 scavs on shoreline haha

[stone surge]

@final glade https://i.imgur.com/e91zeni.jpg

prob something like this

[final glade]

kk ill check it out, ty!

[stone surge]

or even cheaper by going default stock

but then ur recoil will be quite high

[final glade]

might try the middle one

and see how much it comes to

[bold kernel]

says im standing in the stage

[stone surge]

yeah, def. I would go with either of those 3

anything less and the recoil is through the roof

with akm

[bold kernel]

I think i have to kill myself

lmao i did it

[final glade]

got it, thanks man!

only around 120kish

[stone surge]

yeah thats pretty decent 🙂

@final glade just remember that bullets are also important

more important than money spent on the gun ^^

[final glade]

yeah of course

ive ever used a 762 so i'll see what i can afford

[stone surge]

7.62 BP reigns supreme by a large margin (also over PS)

7.62 PS isn't that bad either

any other than those 2 is bad.

[bold kernel]

@final glade dont forget to do your gunsmith quest alot of money and some decent wpns come out of it

[final glade]

ive done all of em i can so far

[bold kernel]

ight

[pseudo veldt]

how do I know if the scav boss spawns or not

[lapis mauve]

go to where he spawns and see if he's there

some maps have several spots they can spawn

[stone surge]

yep all you can do is go to the spots he spawns

and check for yourself.

[rough comet]

like killa on IDEA can spawn in like 4 diff stores, ive had him spawn on the second floor of ultra under the staircase

and the 4 stores around it

but be prepared with the right ammo

[olive turret]

Recently I hunted killa my g18 went brrrrr and fucked his left leg up

[red geyser]

Hey all, super new to the game here. Ive watched a ton of guides and have been practicing in offline mode but still seemed to get torched in raid...any newbies wanna group up with me?

Or anyone just doing runs that theyd let me tag along for? I have a pistol 😄

[brisk perch]

I traded Jaeger for Red Rebel but I don't see it anymore. is it a one-time trade?

[rough comet]

@red geyser i will

[olive turret]

Restart your game I think it’s one trade per trade cycle but I haven’t done that trade

[brisk perch]

I traded for it a week or two ago and haven't seen it since

same for sicc case

[rough comet]

i think the RR is one of those thing like the adar you can only get one of per cycle

hmmmmmmm nvm

[brisk perch]

what is a "cycle"?

like a refresh?

[rough comet]

his restock cycle

[brisk perch]

gotcha

[rough comet]

ye'\

i mena i guess ity it might have been a one time thing

[brisk perch]

tried googling it but didn't find anything

[rough comet]

cause if you did it a week or two ago

maybe it was just a one time thing

but hey you can buy more on the flea for like 2 green cards

or somehting

something*

[brisk perch]

I don't need any more was just curious. Tried to trade for it for a friend

[rough comet]

ooooooooooooh ok

[lapis mauve]

i've given out a bunch. it should still be there

[brisk perch]

It is jaeger correct?

[stone surge]

jeager sells RR yes

[brisk perch]

what level?

[olive turret]

i googled the wiki and it said the barter is level 3

[brisk perch]

weird. Unless my rep him dropped somehow I'm level 2 now. I know I've traded him for it recently

[olive turret]

there are several quests that drop reps

[brisk perch]

typically those are for skier, therapist, prapor

didn't know jaeger was one of them

[olive turret]

prapor has 3 or 4 skier has a few therapist has none, peacekeeper has a few, mechanic has a few

ragman has none iirc

[brisk perch]

ill get rep back up and see if i get it again

thanks

[olive turret]

yeah its weird unless you've been completing quests like crazy since most only drop your rep by .01 i think

[brisk perch]

yeah I've been working on quests. Almost to collector quest now

[olive turret]

sweet i need 5 or 6 more too for collector but its been slow progress

i recently finished the boss hunt quests and i need to kill raiders to finish all the quests for jaeger

[brisk perch]

yeah burns out fast. I've also been saving the items needed for collector so I can just trade for it when I get it

[rough comet]

worldstar do you wanna play sometime

[hexed sky]

does a new player (level 8) have much use for the factory exit key besides selling it to buy more kits?

[brisk perch]

if you run customs it can be kind of useful or factory but other than that no

but you can use key until its 1/50 and sell it for same price to therapist

[hexed sky]

oh nice! can you keep the key in your secure container?

[brisk perch]

yes

you can also put it in docs case, key ring, sicc case and put those in your container

[hexed sky]

awesome, thanks so much

[knotty salmon]

ive just got the game and accidentally spent like all my money managed to scrape 90 k back together what can i do to make money cheaply

[olive turret]

sure but im going to work in a couple minutes and i got work all this weekend

[brisk perch]

hatchet/pistol runs on reserve/interchange

[knotty salmon]

by pistol runs do i take just pistol no clothes etc

[brisk perch]

bring a backpack if you can but no other gear

[knotty salmon]

ok ty

[desert pine]

i'd recommend not using backpack because of sewer manhole

[brisk perch]

depends on what case they have. They might not fit much. But if you a rig you can go out sewer manhole

also run scavs as much as possible

scav reserve/interchange are really good

lots of industrial/tech loot

[hexed sky]

before i forget, thoughts on AKM vs something like the AK74S-U from prapor?

[desert pine]

akm

[brisk perch]

neither

[desert pine]

if you had to do one

[knotty salmon]

whats sewer manhole

[desert pine]

an extract on reserve

[brisk perch]

sewer hole on reserve you can extract through as PMC w/o backpack

one of two normal pmc extracts that doesn't need rr/para

[knotty salmon]

as pmc so not scav??

[desert pine]

both

[brisk perch]

correct

[knotty salmon]

can u use that all the tiime or is it only when it says u can on double O menu

[hexed sky]

ok, i found a somewhat simple AKM build that includes a basic reflex sight for lowbie scrubs, so i've been trying that out, it uses the same PS ammo that the SKS build uses at least

[brisk perch]

all time

[rough comet]

honestly i really feel like if you dont have RR reserve is a scav map

[knotty salmon]

ok so thats the best extract? nice i didnt know that

[brisk perch]

don't use ps ammo

[rough comet]

casue of hole in the wall

[desert pine]

its usually in the double O

[brisk perch]

you won't kill anyone

[hexed sky]

7.62 PS ammo? isn't that BIS for newbies?

[brisk perch]

numba 1 rule ammo over gun

[knotty salmon]

whats ps ammo

[hexed sky]

i did my homework on this

[desert pine]

there is a ton of ammo types for different guns

[rough comet]

yeha you could take a sr1mp and shred somebody with an ak just cause they werent using the right ammo

[brisk perch]

best gun w/ bad ammo won't win. Good ammo w/ bad gun possible to win

[rough comet]

go find an ammo chart

[desert pine]

some are better than other

[rough comet]

they help

[desert pine]

[rough comet]

boom

[desert pine]

use that

[brisk perch]

use mine

[knotty salmon]

nice ty

[brisk perch]

much better

[hexed sky]

wait, so the recommendations from videos to use 7.62 PS are wrong?

[brisk perch]

correct

[hexed sky]

i should use 7.62 BP or something?

[brisk perch]

use bp or not at all

[rough comet]

i mean

yeah use bp

but if you cant afford and you only killing scavs

not raiders use ps

[knotty salmon]

so if i go do a pmc run with just pistol now on reserve

[brisk perch]

if you can't afford ammo don't run the gun

[rough comet]

casue i dont think any scav helmet will protecc from a ps 7.62 round

[knotty salmon]

where should i go loot

[hexed sky]

yeah, the startup guides are a budget-friendly newb scav killing build using the SKS

[desert pine]

just look around for rooms

[rough comet]

william i can show you some loot runs on resrve

[hexed sky]

so the PS was cheaper with lower armor pen, but not much less damage than BP i believe

[desert pine]

most loot is good early on
