Ah, thank you, I just have to submit it online right?

silver hornet
#

GWdogawooThrugging I dunno

fiery rover
#

both

#

some people help here

#

some don't 😄

#

but you can request a sherpa at their discord however when you get one is up to them 😄

solemn pike
#

Im always down to show anyone Interchange.

#

I know that map like the back of my hand.

fiery rover
#

weren't you the guy that got trapped in the death corridor (wherever that is) today 😄

solemn pike
#

thanks to a sparkly young lad named

syes
@hidden meteor

#

the death corridor is the area between Kiba and Adick

#

Kiba isn't what it used to be. But you can basically bank on Killa being there 80% of the time, and when he's not, someone is camping the Kiba door from the second floor.

#

I thought i had killa on really low health given it was the end of the raid basically and so, I took the bait into the death corridor. It did not pan out.

vernal yew
#

@fiery rover Shhhhhhhh At least my mate survived

#

He said he felt left out, since he was the only one screaming in russian in that 2v2 encounter

#

I should have NOT peaked that angle

fiery rover
#

i never get scav players that shoot other scav players that are obviously not looted up

vernal yew
#

knew it would get me head shotted

solemn pike
#

bored is the only real answer.

vernal yew
#

I never get people that shoots hatchlings/pistoling when they're running full gear

fiery rover
#

dumb is the answer tbh

#

i had an early wipe encounter with another scav player as a scav and we just chilled out together

#

even found a friendly hatchling ones as a player sadly he died to scavs because he rushed in

vernal yew
#

Shame, only ever met one scav that was willing to return the wiggle

#

met on factory, held office for a bit before window extract

solemn pike
#

I had a guy who went in as a pistol ling on Interchange obviously wearing the glowing pumpkin helmet

#

He shot at the scavs at power station but he ran out of ammo

#

I saved his life and we toured Interchange pretty leisurely

#

I think it was a raider just now I met infront of the helicopter on Reserve. He had an mp5k. I put 8 shotgun shells directly into his head and he didnt die. Sf shells.

fiery rover
#

so time for bed my fractures won't heal

solemn pike
#

Incase it's not widely known Raiders dont shoot player scavs on sight.

vernal yew
#

I thought they still aggro if you go too close?

#

Can't find any info on what distance is considered "safe" tho

solemn pike
#

I've never seen an AI scav as kitted up as the guy I just shot.

#

And I aimed at him for a minute.

#

Atleast.

#

Fair to think hacks there?

#

cant find the guy

lapis mauve
#

most likely the shells were hitting lower than you thought they were, happened to my friend yesterday with the same shells

solemn pike
#

point blank in the head?

#

less than 2 feet away.

lapis mauve
#

did he have a helmet?

solemn pike
#

yeah.

#

could a helmet absorb that much damage?

#

1700 damage almost

lapis mauve
#

from hollowpoint slugs, for sure

solemn pike
#

Guys name was Maga.

#

I dont know if it was a raider or a PMC

#

but I only see one PMC named Maga who's level 1.

lapis mauve
#

Sounds like raider name

solemn pike
#

its cool that you scrolled up to read the story. I guess SF shells perform differently. Even still at that range, 9 of them in the dome feels kinda questionable to me

#

but i guess it makes sense.

#

atleast in game.

#

thank you.

#

I feel like you'd die from the gas pressure more than anything else at that distance.

lapis mauve
#

Raider/boss hp lets them do some bs stuff

solemn pike
#

I was reading yesterday about a dude who claimed to get shot in the nose with a .50 cal round from an M2 machine gun.

silver hornet
#

Yeah, that sounds like a Scav boss.

solemn pike
#

and the person debunking it mathematically proved it couldnt be done.

silver hornet
#

Also, yeah, no.

#

I'm pretty that's where the T-Box is.

solemn pike
#

triangle of death. Thats why you cant pluck your nose hairs.

silver hornet
#

Regardless, it's still a .50 Cal.

#

The only person I've heard of who's survived a hit from a .50 Cal was Colonel Charles Beckwith, the guy who founded Delta Force

solemn pike
#

given how much damage a shotgun shell can do to a face

#

I dont even want to imagine

#

how much damage a .50 cal round to the face would do.

silver hornet
#

Colonel Beckwith took a .50 cal in the abdomen, don't know if it was .50 BMG or 12.7 Russian

solemn pike
#

I mean, a lot of times military stories exaggerate. Do you think his story is reliable?

silver hornet
#

Scav Boss/Scav Boss Guards (especially Gluhar and the gang) HP is super fucked

#

I'd believe it.

#

"Colonel beckwith takes .50 cal" on google shows multiple pages saying that he got hit by a .50 cal in a helicopter in 1966.

solemn pike
#

I mean, wouldn't the armor on the helicopter tank some of the shot?

silver hornet
#

Doubt it.

#

Especially from a round like 12.7x99 and 12.7x108

#

The Chinese/Soviets supplied the Vietnamese with them

silver hornet
#

lmao

#

Yeah I've seen a lot of those stories.

solemn pike
#

there's a really interesting response on there.

#

i wanna show you.

silver hornet
#

On Quora, too

tepid rock
#

should i just sell chainlets?

#

nothing for quests right

silver hornet
#

yeah, just sell

tepid rock
#

how about weapon parts

silver hornet
#

You can trade chainlets for Tac-Tecs, but I'd just sell.

#

Weapon parts are barter items

tepid rock
#

they are like, level 4 trade ins tho lol

silver hornet
#

Level 3 for most of them, but yeah

solemn pike
#

will 9 rounds of buckshot point blank in the head kill Killa?

tepid rock
#

legs, go for the legs

#

So, For trade in items, can you only do it once? that kinda sucks ass

silver hornet
#

Only do it once?

solemn pike
#

No, they restock.

silver hornet
#

^

solemn pike
#

it takes a couple hours though.

tepid rock
#

so like, the Mp5 for knives

solemn pike
#

yeah

tepid rock
#

Still says i cant buy it

#

after like days

#

that was last wipe for me too

solemn pike
#

Its kinda weird cuz the Mp5 isn't a strong gun in the meta now that most people have good armor

#

lemme see if i can buy it.

tepid rock
#

i know, the mp5 is bad lol

silver hornet
#

You should be able to restock.

#

You don't have enough knives.

tepid rock
#

i know, But look at the message

solemn pike
#

Its gotta be the brown knife

#

not the silver one fam

#

they are different.

tepid rock
#

no, i know that

#

but im saying, even if i had 8

#

Still cant

silver hornet
#

Yeah, it says you can only perform that trade once.

#

Until it restocks.

tepid rock
#

but

#

it never restocks

#

Like last wipe, i played for months, never restocked

#

i think the pistol from this guy is the exact same way

#

for grey knives

silver hornet
#

"You've purchased this item in quantities of 0 pcs. (Max: 1) limited for you in one restock."

tepid rock
#

Again, never restocks lol.

silver hornet
#

But... it very clearly is restocked.

#

If it wasn't restocked you wouldn't even be able to see the barter screen.

tepid rock
#

i will gather 8 again and post back i suppose

solemn pike
#

I just did the pistol trade because i have the knifes. It says I can do it again,just need more knives.

#

the mp5 thing is weird and I dont understand it,honestly.

tepid rock
#

anything worth trading? everything seems pretty meh unfortunately

solemn pike
silver hornet
#

AP-20?

solemn pike
#

that probably takes Killa down right?

#

yeah

silver hornet
#

You'd need to magdump his chest and make sure every shot hits his chest.

#

His facemask? Nope, good luck.

#

His helmet? Probably.

#

Magdump his legs? yep.

solemn pike
#

AP shells are the best penetrative shotgun ammo.

#

if I wanted to take him out with a shotgun what else would I use?

silver hornet
#

Buckshot to the legs.

#

Well, maybe flechette would work.

#

maybe.

#

Legs, use 8.5 Magnum

#

For armor, try Flechettes.

solemn pike
#

whole conversation is stupid and irrelevant because I dont have flea market or a saiga.

#

but idk

#

I saw people last wipe using shotguns on Interchange.

#

and im really curious about how good the p90 can be here, people said since its a short range map you dont need such high penetration.

silver hornet
#

I don't know about the P90 on Interchange

solemn pike
#

but now my experience with the SKS and PS ammo makes me feel like thats wrong.

silver hornet
#

But the P90 as a whole is "Meh".

solemn pike
#

they said the P90's rate of fire,its like ~150rpm faster than the M4

#

so it makes up for it with that.

#

I dont know. I dont understand this game. I want to.

upper hemlock
#

how much do vases go for?

rapid briar
#

hold up so if you get something in raid and put it in your container then die, you cant sell i

upper hemlock
#

I need help im in a raid

solemn pike
#

on flea?no you cant. not anymore.

#

just dealers.

#

although, the selling price on a lot of items has been improved, at least towards Therapist.

silver hornet
#

@upper hemlock around 45-50k to therapist

true furnace
#

anyone know the DR timer for skill gains in one raid? i heard its 5 mins anyone can confirm?

silver hornet
#

That's the number I've seen tossed around a lot

mint eagle
#

worth keeping an empty blue fuel container?

silver hornet
#

Is it FIR?

mint eagle
#

nope

lapis mauve
#

Turn into mag case

mint eagle
#

ok didnt know i could do it with an empty one. will do thnx

crystal rune
#

Can someone kindly explain this to me? I went offline, and this is what happened, pretty self-explanatory.

#

Loadout to follow.

#

So... I missed more than half the shots, sure... But, 6 rounds of LPS Ghz isn't enough to put down the two Scavs?

solemn pike
#

heres the thing. I understand your frustration, but the same shit happened to me earlier. Scavs are starting to wear class 4 and class 5 armor.

#

Lps GhZ ISNT good enough.

silver hornet
#

Scavs rarely wear class 5

crystal rune
#

^ What I assumed

silver hornet
#

Class 4, they can have them sometimes

#

So either they had armor

#

Or you didn't hit the thorax.

crystal rune
#

I see. Maybe offline RNG situation? I never got the second kill, but I had bosses off, so it was just normal scavs

#

(Assumedly)

#

Well it was all at least thorax, unless I swayed and hit arms.

solemn pike
#

So, I shot a scav 9 times today in the chest with an SKS with PS rounds.

#

he did not die.

#

I was heartbroken and thought, oh it has to be killa

#

as it turns out, it wasnt Killa.

silver hornet
#

nah you'd know if it was Killa

solemn pike
#

PS rounds suck,even now.

silver hornet
#

Class 5 will eat up PS like nothing

solemn pike
#

If it was Killa I wouldn't have gotten 9 shots on him without him returning fire. If it was Killa, he had to've had the TT and not the RPK.

#

which can happen but ive never seen it happen.

silver hornet
#

He can have the TT but he won't use it.

crystal rune
#

The issue being... is that LPS Ghz is the round I have the most of due to scavving and luck. Turning out that this round is useless unless toting enough for 5 reloads between 2-3 scavs is kind of a downer.

solemn pike
#

If you wanna use shit ammo, which I have been, you need to get headshots.

#

im sorry dude thats just how it is.

#

last wipe when the M1911A1 came out, myself being a future US Navy sailor I playtested it extensively. I found that it took 4-5 headshots to down most scavs. Thats when I dumped it.

silver hornet
#

LPS has the potential to one-tap the thorax to class 4.

#

So you probably missed the thorax.

#

.45 ACP will always be garbage outside of maybe SMGs or leg meta.

solemn pike
#

@silver hornet what he just said is true, but also. If you want good ammo, do scav runs on Reserve.

silver hornet
#

.45 ACP doesn't exactly have good ammo pen.

#

It's slow and fat

crystal rune
#

It doesn't help that there's no real understanding of the zeroing system between higher velocity rounds unless you go science it up offline before every raid and memorize the numbers and ranges, as it's vastly unintuitive, so I could use "Better" rounds in some guns, but due to any velocity change, they could be way off mark.
I took LPS because I know that the Mosin is at least zeroed in for that round specifically, as it's the standard.
However I was unaware it's got the stopping power of a high-speed marshmallow.

silver hornet
#

Don't use the zeroing system, it's garbage.

crystal rune
#

That is a problem, though.

silver hornet
#

It needs work.

#

Yeah.

crystal rune
#

It does.

silver hornet
#

LPS gzh is fine for budget + early wipe, but it will struggle from class 4 & up

crystal rune
#

I was unaware I was required to get headshots with rounds that mince me in a single thorax shot. Boy those scavs seem to get richer and richer, shame they never carry any of that golden armor that can stop multiple sniper rounds online tho... Smh

solemn pike
#

what are you talking about?

crystal rune
#

I'll go back and focus aim. Thanks for the tips fellas.

silver hornet
#

yeah, aim for the thorax.

#

LPS gzh will stop most Scavs if you tap the thorax.

solemn pike
#

I just told you about a scav that took 9 bullets in the chest.

crystal rune
#

Yes, but never have I witnessed them wearing armor that would support that theory. I have better luck with a pistol. That should not be the case.

dense imp
#

hey i am unsure how the sherpa system works on this discord. do you specifically request one, or join a beginners assistance channel, or just wait in the waiting room?

crystal rune
#

Unless they were boss spawns, anyway. Thats an outlier.

solemn pike
#

Its hard to get headshots.

#

I suck at it.

#

thats why im getting thrashed this wipe.

silver hornet
#

Just hit the head 4head

solemn pike
#

wait, how are you good enough to use the mosin in combat but not good enough to consistently get headshots with it?

#

@crystal rune

#

you seem like a cool dude

#

I have so many questions for you right now.

#

What map do you main? firstly.

inner locust
#

who do i give the supply plan to? skier or therapist?

silver hornet
#

@solemn pike I've been using the Mosin. Shit slaps.

@inner locust
Therapist will give .09 trader rep plus 7,700 XP + 70,000 roubles, while Skier will give you 180,00 cash, .03 rep, and 4,400 XP. Giving it to Skier will reduce Therapist's trader rep by .1, giving it to Therapist will reduce Skier's trader rep by .3.

#

Whichever is more important to you.

solemn pike
#

@silver hornet yesterday I was asking you about how your wipe was going and you said you couldnt play.

crystal rune
#

Nah, I'm offline. This would be my first week of Tarkov. I don't get kills unless they're in the open or the scav/pmc is unaware. This would be Day7 of my experience in Takrov. However many days it's been since wipe. Needing the experience in skav spanws, landing shots, and overall map knowledge, so going offline to check all these boxes.
It's really just that the iron sight on the mosin is tiny and unwieldy, but it's such a strong gun I figured I'd go offline and test my luck on some chest shots. That turned out poorly, so I turned out here. I'll try to focus more on where my shots are landing.

solemn pike
#

moreover

silver hornet
#

I didn't say I couldn't play.

#

I just said I wasn't playing that much Tarkov.

solemn pike
#

@crystal rune if you want i can teach you Interchange. Im learning Reserve right now, I know Factory some, I iknow Customs some.

crystal rune
#

I'd appreciate it.

#

Guess it really is about shot placement... Single shot, no issue. The iron sight is just so far down the gun, lining it up takes some real effort at range.

solemn pike
#

.366 TKM is about the worst bullet in the game.

#

by a lot.

#

dont ever use it.

#

If this game had a .22 hunting rifle, it'd be worse than that.

#

That helmet is also absolute garbage, but i dont need to tell you that.

crystal rune
#

Albiet armor lv2, but still. (That was a scav body)

solemn pike
#

one time, right after the new .366 hunting rifle came out, I brought it into a raid. I counted 12 headshots on a scav wearing a Ratnik helmet and he didn't die.

fickle vector
#

Yo does anyone know what i should do with a item called keycard sell it or not?

solemn pike
#

@fickle vector its the blue labs keycard?

#

screenshot.

silver hornet
#

Is it the labs access card or is it a colored card?

fickle vector
#

@solemn pike it is the blue labs

silver hornet
#

FIR?

crystal rune
#

Side note: Is this the right iron sight for the mosin? Seems a bit... strange..

silver hornet
#

You're missing the front ironsight.

solemn pike
#

You can go into labs with it or sell it on flea for about 150k.

crystal rune
#

No damn wonder. Lmao

solemn pike
#

its up to you.

silver hornet
#

No, that's the access card. @fickle vector is it FIR + the blue labs keycard?

fickle vector
#

@solemn pike i dont have flea yet so i was about to sell it to a npc

solemn pike
#

what does therapist offer for it?

crystal rune
#

I'm out here like "Where's the peg that I should be lining up?"
That makes the shot I made earlier that much more of a feat... Jeeze.

fickle vector
#

terra groups acced card

silver hornet
#

Nidalee, is it the Labs Blue Card?

solemn pike
#

therapists offers have been getting significantly better.

fickle vector
#

therapist 75k

silver hornet
#

If it's access card, it's 75k to Therapist.

#

yep.

fickle vector
#

but i have enough money

#

i got a key that sold for 645k from a body

solemn pike
#

Look up a guide and go into labs.

fickle vector
#

is labs hard ?

solemn pike
#

Everyone has a different opinion on that.

hybrid lintel
#

I sometimes have difficulties getting shots to land when the target is far, and running. Should I lead my shots?

solemn pike
#

You cant bring insured shit into it. Thats one thing I can definitively state.

fickle vector
#

oof

#

ok well then risk it is wanna come with me?

solemn pike
#

Yeah why I said everyone has a different opinion. I dont have a card for it right this second.

#

#LFG @fickle vector

fickle vector
#

should i sell an antique teapot or keep it for something later there are quests where people need certain stuff

#

ok

solemn pike
#

There's a guy in here who does labs solely to go fight the raiders there. You can get some pretty great loot doing that.

#

right now, im doing Reserve for the same thing,basically.

fickle vector
#

idk i just wanna go in there and grab loot xD

solemn pike
#

most people seem to agree that labs is fairly difficult, but like I said everyone has a different opinion.

#

I always considered Reserve and Labs to be the endgame maps.

#

but thats not a popular opinion in this chan.

fickle vector
#

wait can i bring my alpha thing into there?

shy kettle
#

wheres the best place to go get salewa?

solemn pike
#

yeah.

fickle vector
#

and get it back out?

silver hornet
#

@shy kettle Hideout.

solemn pike
#

what you might do is go in with the best gun and ammo youve got, but shittier armor.

#

that way if you die you dont lose everything.

shy kettle
#

@silver hornet i would need to get a gen and gas and i dont have any parts to build it

solemn pike
#

do you have the key for Emercom in Interchange?

silver hornet
#

Still the best place to get em.

solemn pike
#

you can get some pretty decent stuff from Mantis, if youre willing to run the risk.

fickle vector
#

also is a grizzly first aid kid worth selling or not (to therapist)

solemn pike
#

Most people keep a grizzly in the stash to heal after raids.

fickle vector
#

ok

#

i should prob do that

solemn pike
#

but theyve changed that system up and set it up so therapist heals you directly now for a price.

#

I think thats generally cheaper.

silver hornet
#

I wouldn't

fickle vector
#

ive used it some times but grizzly sells for 16k and theraphist takes 10k when i die so i would use the kit

silver hornet
#

Grizzly's give you healing XP

#

Therapist is 10k for each time, Grizzlys can heal you for 6 raids.

solemn pike
#

thats a good point I didn't even think of tbh. Since i dont have flea or really medical shit at all, ive been healing with the A1-2 kits and that gets mad expensive.

#

I really gotta do some hatchling runs to Mantis and stock up

#

my medical cupboard p barren.

#

this dude showed me the tank room? on Reserve with the 2 medical stashes. omg. that was so cool. 2 CMS kits which id not had all wipe and 5 (!) CAR kits.

drowsy wind
#

Hatchling runs aren't worth, bring a pistol at least

fickle vector
#

where do i find salewa the most?

lapis mauve
#

Hideout

#

Lvl 1 med station and you can make them for pretty cheap

rocky glacier
#

How do you get better at aiming players?

honest hamlet
#

how can i trigger a tremor for my quest

rocky glacier
#

@honest hamlet It's triggered by pain

honest hamlet
#

so if i dehydrate myself will it give me tremor

rocky glacier
#

I don't think so, you need to get shot, a high jump might work as well

radiant sable
#

break a leg

honest hamlet
#

😄 👍

inland shell
#

is there a good guide for early weapon loadouts? not having a lot of success with just aks off the ground

silver hornet
#

@honest hamlet Get a fracture, wait a second, boom, tremor. There's also certain stims that will give you a tremor, like Zagustins.

pliant plank
#

is there any way to put a monstrum on op-sks

solemn pike
#

@inland shell by aks you mean SKS?

inland shell
#

like ak74

solemn pike
#

The 5.45 ak is one of the better guns overall. Unfortunately until you get flea you dont get access to a lot of ammo

#

What rounds are you using?

inland shell
#

PRS or T which may be my issue

#

you have to level up prapor for more types right?

solemn pike
#

yeah.

#

T is probably the best bullet you can easily access, unfortunately.

#

once you hit level 10 you get the flea market and you can buy the bullets the community thinks are best.

#

another thing too, once you finish the first quest for prapor,debut, he sells an AKS74U loaded with BT rounds

#

or BS rounds

#

which are significantly better than T

inland shell
#

that sounds handy, i can go finish that

solemn pike
inland shell
#

thanks for the help

solemn pike
#

another option youll have of course is the SKS, but the SKS is going to have the same issue youre having now with the 74U, you don't get armor penetrating bullets at level 1 trader.

#

if you scroll way up, like about 11 hours ago I shot a scav 9 times in the chest with the SKS with PS rounds and he didnt die.

#

compounding the issue with the SKS is its semi auto only.

inland shell
#

honestly more of a fan with semi auto in tarkov i've never had a good gun that i could recoil control with

solemn pike
#

you can build lazer guns in this game. Dont know what the value is off the top of my head, but im willing to bet the 74 youre talking about has a base recoil value of over 80.

#

you can build an M4 with 32 vertical recoil.

#

It makes an enormous difference.

inland shell
#

i played a lot like two or 3 wipes ago but i never built guns like that i'd always farm scavs on labs or just snipe and then i run into people who full auto me and am amazed might try to get into it this wipe

solemn pike
#

I guess im kinda playing devils advocate cuz I dont usually use the full auto capability but I always want to have it just in case I run into like Killa

#

or someone with stupid armor.

#

anyway, I think the ADAR is significantly better than the SKS.

inland shell
#

thats also only semi right?

solemn pike
#

yeah

#

its the AR15.

tepid trellis
#

I just got a weapons case and a food case out of a raid and i cant sell it they are both empty

#

On the Flea Market

solemn pike
#

yeah its a new change.

#

you cant flea market things you put in your alpha.

#

wait what? those are way too big for the safeboxes.

lapis mauve
#

yeah, huh. screenshot maybe

#

i'm confused too

quartz junco
#

is the secure container gamma a one time use item?

lapis mauve
#

No

solemn pike
#

how do you mean? If you accidentally drop it, its lost forever.

#

i know some people who have dropped it.

lapis mauve
#

You can’t drop it

#

Or put it in backpacks

solemn pike
#

Is that recent? I had someone who swore he sold it

elfin pendant
lapis mauve
#

You can sell it to ragman I think

#

Looks like emercon

solemn pike
#

yeah,for the most part, so long as youve examined the parts.

@solemn pike

#

wont let me place offer says cant when it isnt found in raid

#

but obviously i did find these in raid

solemn pike
#

The flea market not working right is definitely kind of common, last wipe it was a shitshow on the best of days. Honestly, I think your best bet is to report the bug through the launcher, but BSG wont ever get back to you unless enough people have the same issue.

where can i find salewas at?

Get lvl 1 med station and make them, fastest way

solemn pike

Emercom medical station, there's a medical store near techlight, Mantis has good spawns but you gotta hurry.

shy kettle

@lapis mauve but i need a generator

#

and i dont have the supply to make it

lapis mauve
#

Go to oli, tons of gas

shy kettle
#

but i need bulbs and whatever else

lapis mauve
#

Do scav run or pistol run and stick it in your container

#

Not for lvl 1

shy kettle
#

oh

#

so i need to go to gas station in customs and go where?

lapis mauve
#

No no, oli in interchange is best for gas

shy kettle
#

okay can you send me a youtube video?

solemn pike
#

Ill take you.

#

if you want.

#

but id prefer not Olli, back corner warehouses are way better with 1/10th the risk.

#

1/100th even.

#

@lapis mauve since he mentioned it I just started making salewas. all you need is about 150k roubles if you haven't unlocked even the basic buildings in the hideout. Thank you for that cuz i had been hurting for medical shit for days.

And if people don’t know, turn generator on, start crafting, turn generator off

guys I think they implemented a ping limiter with new patch or something like I can't play with my friends anymore we are from all over the world so one or two of us gets disconnected from the raid everytime.... any solution or comment?

hollow cairn

Yes, they updated it. I think max is 180 ping now or something.

true furnace

also @tropic nova you probably got it once n extracted then you went back in customs again thinking you didnt get it in your inventory n died and lost the first raid one

I been fooled by the folding stock before

I am horrible at gun building as well. Even on prewipe I couldn't build a gun for my life lol

if you do what I do and play mostly night raids cuz less PMCS, tracer rounds can be useful.

the rule I go by is always gear up for the most likely threat.

lapis surge
#

I've been playing for a while this wipe, reached about level 13 and while I started out playing solo I've been duo/trioing but I realize that when a teammate goes down and I'm alone I start to panic really bad even if I know the map. Especially if I'm getting shot and I can't pinpoint them. My question is, what would be the best way to gain confidence? I want to get better so when I duo I'm able to carry my weight if one of us goes down

solemn pike
#

theres a video im gonna DM you about surviving an ambush situation which sounds a lot like what you described.

#

Its kinda long, but its by an ex spec ops dude.

lapis surge
#

That sounds good, I'll take a listen. I love this game and I want to be able to play it and feel confident and calm

solemn pike
#

I dont know if this is specifically applicable. But are you saying you wanna continue on in the raid after your friend dies? or youre tryna book it to exfil

#

I know the nerves situation. Players are patient. This happened to me 3 times today and im still mad. got into a gunfight, hit my enemy pretty bad, he dings me some too. I know we are both on the brink of death, I decide to reload. If he pushes me before I can chamber the round for the new mag, I die 99.99999% of the time, and honestly I prolly need about 2 seconds after chambering the next mag to feel confident.

#

You can drop back in cover, but don't do anything obvious until youre 100% the threat is neutralized.

#

I know that sounds like some rookie shit, and it is, but ive been trying to PVP a lot more.

lapis surge
#

Yeah I do want to continue, when he goes down my first thought is "where is my nearest extract"

solemn pike
#

I think thats the right mindset, because now the mission parameters have changed.

lapis surge
#

It is, and tarkov is about survival, but I feel like if I run from every bad situation then I won't be able to calm those nerves down

solemn pike
#

Its a thousand times easier to kill 1 guy with 2. There are situations where youll only do something because you know despite the risk you have someone watching your flank.

#

and in a group of 3 you should feel invincible.

lapis surge
#

Yeah, I think tomorrow I'm going to PMC on Factory just so I can get used to cqc fighting then run customs for some more varied stuff

solemn pike
#

Interchange honestly.

#

go to Olli.

lapis surge
#

Aha that place is terrifying

solemn pike
#

Its exactly what you want!

lapis surge
#

You aren't wrong, Interchange is a good map, barring snipers in those common spots that look outside

solemn pike
#

even on day raids, I always kind of overestimate snipers, because there really aren't that many good spots. You shoot at Olli loading dock from Emercom? How much traffic does that realistically get.

#

Oh okay, so go to the main concourse, front entrance on second floor

#

same thing.

#

if youre still worried about snipers go night.

lapis surge
#

Yeah those two like large platforms that sit on the mall are prime sniper spots. Same with dome on Reserves. But I think you're right. Through just putting myself in there, go balls to the wall, I think I can start gaining that confidence

solemn pike
#

okay. You said you wanted CQB.

#

Interchange is just CQB.

#

you dont shoot outside at all.

#

ffs there's people who say shotguns are viable on Interchange lmao.

#

those people are wrong but its an acceptable viewpoint.

lapis surge
#

Man, shotties on Interchange XD

#

I wish shotguns were better, I do like them quite a lot

solemn pike
#

If you go saiga with the 20 round drum and ap 20 shells, I could see it working.

lapis surge
#

But what's nice is that Interchange is very level so unless someone is ratting in a corner you can usually have an easier time spotting them from my experience

#

Unless you're near Killa. Anyway thanks a ton for the video it was very educational

#

Gotta hit the hay, it's 3:30AM

solemn pike
#

its funny you bring him up, cuz

#

I was talking about using the saiga with ap20 on him earlier.

people here think its viable.

Ha! Sounds like it

Tips I've heard is just leg meta him to death

it used to stunlock him but i heard that doesnt work anymore

it still stun locks him?

You can still stunlock Killa

#

i dont know i know i only tried 5 times this wipe but i dunno if its the changes to ai but it feels more difficult to stunlock him

Take a Klin with PMM and dump into his legs

When I killed him in the past, it was always with best in class ammo so I didn't need to stunlock him.

If there was no time limit people would only play Scav so that they could have a chance at getting really high value items with zero effort.

If you suck at the game that's not the game's fault.

silver hornet

A tutorial is planned

fiery rover
#

any form of matchmaking goes against the concept of the game 😄

silver hornet
#

^

#

Skill based matchmaking will never happen in Tarkov.

bold kernel
#

I m not arguing it’s a bad game, I genuinely enjoy this game, it’s fun and gives me joy but it’s so fuckin hard to compete against players with much more experience than you

silver hornet
#

Isn't that the case in literally every other game with online multiplayer?

bold kernel
#

I understand, but for new players it’s hard, like I keep telling my self you can do it you can do it you can do it, I join the damn match and get head shot from 100 m by a m4a pmc

#

It might be, but doesn’t mean it should be in this game, if someone throws his money in the river doesn’t mean you should do too

silver hornet
#

That analogy makes no sense whatsoever but ok.

#

Tarkov isn't meant to be fair or forgiving.

#

here's where I find fuel on reserve

umbral oak
#

honestly if you want to be the hero in your game, you should go play a single player game. Otherwise in multiplayer games, you ll always be worse than someone. If you are new in the game you are probably worst than everyone that's already playing. and that's how it is for everygame ever.

bold kernel
#

I love the combat mechanics and looting of this game but it’s just too hard, for beginners, they get scared to loose their gear so they go in with shiti gear, they go in with shiti gear they die, plus add that on top of how angle and combat techniques work in this game. Bro not ones is asking to be fair or forgiving, it can be unfair and unforgiving, but for the same players with same experience, having not equal guns and penetrations and damages already makes it super unfair and unforgivable, which is understandable because that makes the game fun, but putting super experienced players against dummies like me and a whole bunch of others is a bad idea

silver hornet
#

In your opinion it's a bad idea.

he gives up.

You will never get better if you do that.

fiery rover

the game has a very steep learning curve you either like it or not but even a tutorial won't really help you much

ya theres an idea right now for a standard game mode with no resets and a ranked game mode with resets constantly, kinda like diablo. floats around somewhere on the forums

bold kernel

And apparently they call it fun, like man it’s a waste of time, time is more important that gold my guy

It's not "standard" and "ranked"

It's "Wipe" and "No wipe"

spiral root

Oh sorry sir

umbral oak

@bold kernel sounds like you just want a echobox to complain about "how hard the game is for a casual player". You should just start a reddit thread or something. clearly most ppl here dont agree with you.

silver hornet
#

It's not a waste of time if they enjoy playing it that way.

#

And I even think the devs touched on that idea

#

It'd probably be the best way to go about this game

bold kernel
#

@silver hornet yea when I die to some one who head shots me with a m4a while I m minding my own business with a pistol

#

Lol

spiral root
#

wipe mentality changes from player to player

#

the less u know the game, the less likely u enjoy wipes

silver hornet
#

@bold kernel And how is that a problem?

spiral root
#

players that know this game like the back of their hand have no issues with wipes and have a pretty big advantage during a wipe over those that do not

silver hornet

If complaining is the first thing you do instead of learning how you could've avoided that situation, that sounds like a personal problem.

@bold kernel if you are having this much of concern, 2 days after you buy a game i dont see how you can enjoy any game that doesnt hold your hand from start to finish. which is fine. tons of people are like that. Tarkov aint for that people though.

fiery rover
#

also 2 days worth of learning tarkov is more or less nothing

silver hornet
#

Reminds me of that dude from Twitch Rivals saying he had 300 hours in the game and said he knows it pretty well.

umbral oak

also 2 days worth of learning tarkov is more or less nothing
@fiery rover yup. it really isnt. i got the game for over a couple of months and still feel like im just scratching the surface.

fiery rover

bold kernel
#

@umbral oak my guy, my point from that sentence was that I do have the passion for grind and I do have the passion for loving this game, I literally said that I genuinely enjoy the fuck out the game, but dying too much to too many experienced players doesn’t make the game fun, it just makes it more miserable, like I have been trying to have a good raid for the past 5 hours, I haven’t got a single bullet out of it

Matter of fact, I just got that quest done today by running around with a Mosin

wise crane
#

Do you always run armor?

silver hornet
#

For quests like that?

#

Very cheap armor.

#

Like PACAs.

#

Although I did run a cheap class 3 armor like the 6B23

fiery rover
#

which quest?

silver hornet
#

Shootout Picnic

#

15 Scavs on Woods

fiery rover
#

ah

#

i do that quest in a special way

#

grab a TT go in at night just run to sawmill and try to kill a scav or 2 however i am aware that i prolly gonna die i mean i don't like woods anyway

wise crane
#

Lol

bold kernel
#

@umbral oak well that is a reasonable explanation, tho If you want to sit down and debate about this it’s gonna take years.

fiery rover
#

i forgot is the rb-pk key good

bold kernel
#

I just wish they had more preparation for us noobies bro

silver hornet
#

If it's for Reserve it's probably good.

#

Wait

#

RB-PK?

fiery rover
#

yeah

silver hornet
#

there's no RB-PK

fiery rover
#

RB-BK

#

i mean sry

bold kernel
#

Lol

silver hornet
#

BK is the marked room key

fiery rover
#

ah nice

silver hornet
#

One of them, at least

#

It's 100k on the FM

wise crane
#

One more question, do y'all sell everything you find early game or save it? Like weapon parts and stuff I mean

bold kernel
#

@wise crane I kept everything I got, my inverntory is ful

silver hornet
#

I save barter items and items I know are required for quests

fiery rover
#

only 100k meh

#

thought it was more

sterile tapir
#

Me and my friends all have standard edition but we are coming by. However using an alpha container is hard. Which "containers" are handy to carry in my 2x2? Like, is a DOCS case worth it?

fiery rover
#

yes

#

all containers are more or less worth it if you have the keys

sterile tapir
#

Did the DOCS case also carry valuables?

#

Like skulls and stufc

#

Or was that the S I C C case...

#

Also I always wondered what: "Sherpa" meant as I see it quite often...

fiery rover
#

yes

#

!wiki documents case

barren sapphire
#

what kind of armor/helmet can protect from getting oneshotted by a mosin?

lapis mauve
#

what ammo is said mosin shooting?

barren sapphire
#

i have no idea lmao

#

im just getting instantly dropped by mosins

lapis mauve
#

if lps then level 5, if snb then nothing

#

level 4 will protect your body for most shots, but you will have 5ish hp

sterile tapir
#

what if it is the ammo you can buy from level 1 Prapor?

lapis mauve
#

that is lps

sterile tapir
#

oh

lapis mauve
#

you need lvl 4 armor or level 5 helmet

sterile tapir
#

That explains alot of deaths

lapis mauve
#

and level 4 armor leaves you on like 5 hp

sterile tapir
#

also

lapis mauve
#

762x54 is very strong

sterile tapir
#

Me and my friends keep getting an connection error in raids (europe) but i've died from it once

#

Is it common atm?

silver hornet
#

7.62x54 needs a rework to be realistic but GWdogawooThrugging

lapis mauve
#

i've not had any problems like that on na recently, if your ping is too high for too long it dc's you

silver hornet
#

There's no reason to ever run 7N37 when SNB exists but SNB's job in this game is performed by 7N37 IRL

sterile tapir
#

Sometime's my ping skyrockets to 80-100 but normally its on 15 or lower

lapis mauve
#

all ammo does imo, most of it has too much pen. but we need plate hit boxes before they mess with stuff too much

sterile tapir
#

But I kept ''logs'' from my ping but it never hit that high as it said in tarkov

silver hornet
#

Nah but that's the thing, they added a bunch of useless ammo types for 7.62x54mmR.

#

There's absolutely no reason to run anything outside of LPs, 7N1, or SNB.

#

Unless you use tracers for sniping, you use either of those three rounds.

sterile tapir
#

I think its more or less the servers ping then. Because if my friend and probly the whole raid gets thrown out its more likely thats the case

lapis mauve
#

like does m61 even pen nij 4 on the first shot irl (you did day realistic)

sterile tapir
#

also exept maybe a few Saiga's are shotguns really worth keeping?

#

Because before wipe hit it only brought me misfortune

lapis mauve
#

not really unless you have ap-20

silver hornet
#

I doubt it'd pen on the first shot, no

#

NIJ 4 is rated against .30-06 AP

lapis mauve
#

and yet in tarkov it pens easily (i believe gost 6 is about the same)

#

"realistic"

silver hornet
#

I wouldn't say about GOST 6 is comparable to NIJ 4

#

They compare different things

#

But anyways, yeah, I agree

#

We're just gonna have to wait for reworks

lapis mauve
#

i hope they lower pen to be more realistic with plate hit boxes. then watch as everyone complains about getting one shotted by shotguns

#

slick with huge unarmored areas lol

sterile tapir
#

how rare and expensive are secure cases by Fence

silver hornet
#

Probably very rare, and very expensive.

sterile tapir
#

True... an Alpha container is a never ending struggle

silver hornet
#

Try and do the tasks you can get Epsilon

sterile tapir
#

Prapor right?

silver hornet
#

yep

sterile tapir
#

Punisher serie's are gonna be tough tho

rigid mortar
#

can we join the beginners assistance voice channel randomly??

#

just wanted to learn some maps

fiery rover
#

yes

sterile tapir
#

warehouse 17 is close to a sniper scav and RUAF roadblock right?

#

by that duffle bag

silver hornet
#

lemme check

#

yep

sterile tapir
#

aight

#

thx

fiery rover
#

oof

#

hm

#

probably depends

amber fiber
#

belt?

fiery rover
#

i would say the avs prolly or the tv-110

amber fiber
#

yea but theyre expensive

#

theyre armor

fiery rover
#

unarmored

#

hm

#

the belt-a +belt b gear rig

#

but they lack a 2x2 slot

#

that ones mostly for 1 slot stuff

#

next one might be the black rock

upper leaf
#

hold w and you win

fiery rover
#

what

night crag
#

is there a site to check flee market prices?

fiery rover
night crag
#

its outdated

fiery rover
#

but its done via hand so not sure how accurate it is

#

otherwise

#

no

sterile tapir
#

When are you tagged and cursed? aslong if you wear a rig your fine right? (or have a primary)

silver hornet
#

eft-loot is outdated

covert garden
#

Quick question, where are people finding NVGs and thermals?

bold kernel
#

weapon boxes

silver hornet
#

Weapon boxes, loose spawns, flea market, traders, etc.

amber fiber
#

did i meess up buying m855?

silver hornet
#

M855 sucks.

amber fiber
#

yeah

#

but m995 is 1.3k

#

and its a bit trash aswell

#

m8556a1 is 1k

fiery rover
#

m995 is trash?

amber fiber
#

m885 is 200roubles

bold kernel
#

if you're a bit broke m855 will do, but it does suck

amber fiber
#

M995 Kinda lacks flesh damage

bold kernel
#

Yeah it's for armor

amber fiber
#

and rn u dont need it

silver hornet
#

Pretty 995 will 2-3 tap a thorax regardless

amber fiber
#

ok?

#

is it worth spending 5x more?

fiery rover
#

well m995 is for armor pen just like the 7n39

silver hornet
#

not this early in the wipe when many people are still running class 3 & 4

fiery rover
#

this early not really later on when people run t5 and t6 more often then yes

#

right now you probably need a m856a1 to go by easily

amber fiber
#

its 1k

bold kernel
#

Labs is probably a good place to run M995 since most people bring their good gear there

amber fiber
#

same price as m995

fiery rover
#

allthough m855 is not trash its justnot the strongest but its decent compared ot other options

bold kernel
#

You get what you pay for

amber fiber
#

im runin gen 4 altyn m4 with m885

bold kernel
#

If you wanna shred, spend 1k, if you don't have that money, spend 200

fiery rover
#

as always it all boils down to money

#

if oyu have 450 million then it desn't matter if you pay 200 or 1k for a bullet

#

if you have 500k it matters

amber fiber
#

fuck me i died

fiery rover
#

sry just fucked myself so can't fuck you

amber fiber
#

why does noone want to run customs

#

ffs

restive crane
#

i only do customs

fiery rover
#

same

#

allthough i did woods twice this wipe because of jäger

silver hornet
#

I know every map

#

Woods sucks.

fiery rover
#

yeah

#

woods has 0 loot

restive crane
#

i just tried woods as scav, got a fal and mp153

fiery rover
#

#

Just want to make sure, if I take something into an offline raid to try it out, will it erase the found in raid status of the item?

silver hornet
#

no idea for offline

@gritty folio if you have the key, it should open the door in the middle.

fiery rover
#

it opens the door in the picture

gritty folio
#

nope

#

not working

silver hornet
#

🤔

fiery rover
#

yes it does^^

#

open stream for me

#

gritty folio
#

i'm not ingame rn

fiery rover
#

...

gritty folio
#

but i tried it in like 10 raids

fast ice
#

you may have went aroudn to the back

#

theres 2 doors

#

iirc

fiery rover
#

it opens that door trust me because i have that key and i used it in the past a lot

fast ice
#

ya its a good early key, AK spawns, ammo boxes

fiery rover
#

well it is tricky though

bold kernel
#

@wise crane It shouldn't. If it does it's probably a bug

gritty folio
#

ok i will check again, maybe i have missed the 2nd door all the time for some reason (i rarely go there)

fiery rover
#

because you can get easily trapped

wise crane
#

clear tartan

You use ironsight or a cheap reflex?

silver hornet
#

Ironsight

#

Irons are bad, but it's a cheap gun.

#

10k cheaper than the mosin

gentle stratus
#

mosin has more power. I swear by the mosin nagant
