Which gunsmith part

gl
just want the ak gone from my stash
some asshole is listening and put one up for 200k lol
just took it down
ah ok
π
he really thought i was gonna spend 200k
I just picked up a nice ak-74m from a pmc i killed in a raid but it says its not found in raid? im confused π¦
The PMC brought it in.
Only stuff out of this exact raid are FiR
Since he didnt get it from there, it is not
I mean it is by chance
60k for the key
sometimes you're lucky other times you're not
@wise stream night time woods, scavs use torch and there's plenty of them
doing introduction on woods if anyone wanna come
oh thanks @bold kernel, gonna bring out my juice cannon sks
@wise stream hmm, I could be wrong but Im pretty sure the nickname of "juice cannon" belongs to a modded SA-58, not just any modded gun ^_^
Modded Ash-12
I am looking for someone or a group of people who I can play with on most maps and learn from them/you and/or be told what to improve on. Maps I want to learn/play on: Interchange (I have 21WS), customs (I have all keys), Shoreline, Reserve, Labs (I got red keycard). it would be nice if this someone/group of players could let me play with daily. My schedule: 5 AM EST -to- 1:30 PM or 3:00 PM and 4:30 PM or 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM. Timezone: EST | Region: NAE | Country: USA | Language: English | Style: Heavy Rat | Map I know: Customs, and 50% of interchange (I know map and most spawn locations for loot, extracts etc.) | Maps I want to learn: The rest of interchange, Shoreline, Labs (I know map just not spawns of items), Reserve | Started Playing: June 18th 2020, First Wipe, about 300-400 hours, and 400 raids 50-70 successful. | Money in Stash 5.1 Million | Net Worth: 73.7 Million.
damn, had an mp5 with a p1x on it, slotted 2 extremely wealthy player scavs, got 2 raiders in d2 and died to a third one
rip vss
but not bad for just an mp5 and small sight
what does that mean?
you have made a chat with someone
i think
hey i have a question
@opal gust feel free to ask it then ^_^
what button do i press to change how i should interact like i wanna kick a door instead of just opening it
you move your mouse wheel up/down to change the highlighted option @rain sundial
@analog fulcrum it just changes how quiet i want to be
how much health do people have? because i just died to some guy only to find out i dealt 560 damage to him
you gotta first come to the door so the options come up, then it should work, unless u changed some keybinds
ok thx im gonna go offline and try that
@opaque oriole 435 health
Some Scav bosses + Scav boss guards have a fuckton of health so you might've been shooting something else
if u did more than 435 flesh damage and he survived he must be a higher health target like raiders/scav bosses/guards, orr u did damage to someone else too, not only that person
@analog fulcrum just realized that my only option to open a stuck door is to kick it because i dont have any explosives
well, if it doesnt let u open the door, some of em u can kick open, but most of the time u will need keys to unlock them, theres tons of different keys in EFT, and yea atm you cant explode open doors
@analog fulcrum what time is it
wut, in my timezone?
its ppsh time
xP
oh yeah oh yeah
π
yeah its very fun to use, just not very great against highly armored targets
well the 1000 rpm helps with leg meta
Whats a beta container?
2x3 secured you get from prepare to escape edition
dont get it from peacekeeper its not worth, do the epsilon prapor quest
Hey everyone, I developed a app where you can see the Flea Market prices (currently only for Android phone). Its fast and you can search through every item. Its free and has no ads on it. Download now from here! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jm.ratapp I will add a lot more features soon! Now you never need to search the internet or ask your friend what item is best to bring from raid!
@hollow falcon how did you scrape prices from flea market?
using the tarkov-market.com api
cool
hmm, sadly the tarkov.market data seems to sometimes be innacurate, + many of the "trader price" values are outdated after the trader price changes
but still Im gonna use the app instead of the website since I find it more comfortable to use ^_^
yo the 3rd consecutive successful ppsh run on factory
also i killed a level 2 hatchling which is kinda rare nowadays
Poor level 2 >.>
he was USEC so idk
Is the PP 19 worth for the Roler trade or better selling it ?
killed a level 41 with level 4 armor and an obrez
what was he doing on factory
i had to shoot him 27 times with AKBS ammo
doing the short range mosin kills quest late?
If the roller if FiR id sell it on the fleamarket if it is still ike 180k
anything bitcoin is good for
does mayo have to be 100% for collector?
No, just found in raid
ok thanks
so i bought the cheapest version but now that im addicted, is there anyway to upgrade or would i have to restart
You no longer need to restart to upgrade, new stuff comes in the mail
do i just login on main website and buy the higher version?
Yup
Yep. I started with the standard version and slowly upgraded during sales
when do you reckon another sale will be
Prepare gives you a bigger stash, left behind you get stash and 2x3 container, eod you get biggest stash and a 3x3 container
so if i went straight to the highest would i get the lower cases to or just the one with the premium
You'd just get a 3x3
They donβt happen too often. Maybe in August?
And whatever you have currently you'd sell or discard
Ragman buys cases for a decent amount now
You get everything listed in the package you buy minus what you got from the original package
but i still keep everything ive encoumbered for the 5 levels i have played right?
Yes
ok ty for answering my 50 questions
That's what we are here for
hey can anyone help me out im mainly just looking for someone to play with but im also relatively new
No, but the maps are really helpful
!ammo
interchange's layout is pretty easy to understand once you play it a couple times
have a map pulled up when you play it
interchange is a really fun map but all the people who run it are asshole chads rocking airframes and slicks
its a tough life being a rat
stinkee rat π
The rat way is the right way
Sure, but you make so much money as a rat
you should be worrying about leveling up and doing your quests instead of monee
That's what i'm doing now, I got a good amount of money from my rat antics
the rat way is the only way
Until you get shot in the back while running to resort
Also, how do the Beginners Assistance voice calls work, do we just go into the waiting room and wait for enough people?
waiting room is for people who have registered for a sherpa via this program !sherpa

@last belfry ^^^^^
Thanks
im still waiting for them to look at my application π¦
if only secure container counted towards found in raid again
if only but nikita doesn't like that
whatever nikita doesn't like we have to accept
except the thicc case thing I believe
I think the community got pissed because of thicc cases being removed right? I bought this game before whatever backlash there was.
Ehh, the THICC case stuff is resolved now.
i never even cared about the thicc case thing
I would honestly rather have some guy shoving good loot inside of his container than whatever problems we have right now
but I guess it goes mitigate the flea market thing but still it make stuff cheaper
like a few weeks after i got the eod edition of the game he then decides to incorporate this found in raid non sense
is that why I cannot do quests unless items are "found in raid"
was this not in last patch?
does he not realize my survival rate is 20ish %
mine is 12%
we suck
but I talk as if I know how to play lol
ha
I just haven't found a good reason to take in gear
so I've been doing pistol runs
might get eod if customs is horrid still after the patch
i probably wouldn't of gotten the eod edition of the game is the found in raid was a thing
i would of just finished the punisher series and got the other case
actually if they had a better way to get containers I wouldn't even bother with eod
I could spend all my money on beta but that thing is small
kappa and epsilon takes so many quests
they do
im on the last punisher quest and its gonna take me a week maybe more to complete
yeah plus he doesn't like "boosting"
and i cant get it back on fullscreen
let me guess you cannot click the options icon?
have you tried moving your task bar?
to like the left or something
if he doesn't like boosting then he needs to fix jaegers task
have you tried restarting then
yepp
uninstalling?
i accidentally hitted save
your PC
i dont wanna fucking reinstall this fucking game
idk
why the fuck is the optuions button on the fuckigng bottom where i cant see it when windoed
why cant be fucking normain in the main screen
mind sharing your screen then? I've had that happen a few times.
he makes it feel like a punch in the dick
what channel
2man #19
THANKS
no problem
if your getting board of customs try playing interchange or reserves
it takes a while to get the hang of the different maps but id say they are way funner then customs rn
Interchange gives me nightmares
playing through the tasks make you go to different maps anyway
Anyone want to play with a brand new player? i just finished installing this game
I do interchange stashes
i guess you do the same with shoreline
went in as a scav like a few minutes ago and shot a player scav even though I let him live
guy just turned around, looked at me, then shot.
unfortunate for him
he could've gotten out with his gas can worth 80k
i do like the idea of a karma thing they want to implement
most likely yes
what's the karma system?
either or
if you're the right level
have you tried using "edit preset"
it works wonders when trying to make your own build
yeah
have you tried right clicking on your gun?
maybe its there
I don't think you need a hideout bench or anything
my bad apparently you need workbench level 1
it shouldn't take too much money to make that
Stop THIS scav on scav crime plz
@slim maple Its not a level based thing for edit pre set, you need to unlock the work bench in the hideout.
did they remove the ability to craft the tank shells?
and in your guys opinion what is the best barter trade for bitcoins?
For a person who needs room in his inventory I'd go for a weapons case
thicc or normal doesn't matter
for guns I can just make a cheap one
no need for case just want to make money from it if I can or best trade for money
sell all your non armored rigs and backpack stack
116k for therapist
ak 104 with a flir on it
she usually buys it for a lot
there was never an option to craft OFZ's
oh really, friend must have been confused then, thanks!
well I don't think I'll ever finish regulated materials then, they're so hard to find
@tiny stag do you play reserve?
yeah I keep looking around the tanks
there is a particular room they spawn in alot I think (from videos I have seen, i don't really play reserve)
RB-ST
hello i just got the game and was wondering if someone could help me learn
i fuckin dont wanna do ragman questsss
ive been putting them off for so long
havent even really gone on interchange besides a couple scav runs
every time i try to read the maps i always end up being in the other side of extract
ik i can go offline and get "familiar" with the map
but i dont think that the case
cuz i can play custom as many time with friends but when i solo i just end up being in the other side of extract
can someone help me get better at the game plz
How long you been playing?
only a few days my friend gave me his acc
when you complete the quest isnt it supposed to give you the rewards
just finished gun smith 6
never got the rewards
nvm
just had to restart
gotcha
why is sugar so much? flir?
Itβs used to make moonshine for scav case
can anyone answer an account related question?
!ammo
I need like a how to be less bad, for lvl 10+ guide
it sounds dumb, but dont die
pick your fights, try to only choose ones where you know you will win
every raid you survive thats one less kit you have to pay for the next raid
looking for help on woods i gotta kill 4 scavs without healing, collect blood samples, and kill 2 scavs from 40 meters away
@bold kernel I mean dying is never my goal
like go out of your way to not die
dare i say... be a rat π¦
but whats most important is your possitioning
a rat?
Hide and scurry away, stay in the shadows
Hey guys, I'm new to this wipe - anyone wanna help me get to level 10 rapid? focus mainly on tasks?
a rat?
@fathom jasper IN short, there are 2 kinds of tarkov players, the Ratsm and the chads
The rats don't have morals, will steal from the rich and kill the poor if it means they'll get profit. They just avoid most fights in general unless they can shoot someone in the asshole while looting
Chads just dont give a fuck abt money and will chase the sound of gunshots if it means there will be a firefight
Rats = loot/money goblins
Chads = PvP megaminds
7.62 ps still decent this late into wipe?
yea, its the 2nd best 7.62 ammo
Yikes scavving interchange and Killa shows up 9mins left in raid
owwe
Hope you got a mosin
anyone wanna run with a noob and help a brotha out
Anyone wanna run some raids, sorta new but know a bit
@shadow elm yeah, im also new though
I'm in pm me a channel
Question - what is the difference between the TXL DML, and the Adar, and I dont mean the 'natural spawns' I mean is it not possible to Mod one into the other, and vice versa? given they can all take the same charging bolts ect, or at least very close? (I know most people use the TXL's as a long barrell but short varrients do exiest)
the only difference is like literaly +3 ergo and like 2 recoil
and the cool name
might as well run an m1a at that point if your going to buy a tx
lol I was gonna say, so effectiveness is like essentially the same, but its basically Chad mode vs non chad mode
not finding them getting them off hostiles\scav loot boxs\marked rooms
if your going to run 556 just run an m4 or an hk
I do sometimes do the trade for with 1 bitcoin 1 gp coin for that TX Warrior
lv 50 hitting my wifeπ π
hey guys, I've started using the TX barter from mechanic for 1 btc
are there any attachments recommended to switch on that TX?
is it a common issue to have the traders glitched after almost every raid i run
somewhat
@tiny stag id recomend that you use the bitcoin for the mp7 trade, but if your using the tx, you should trade the sight out for a different one, and add on a different foregrip
like an cqr or rk1
thanks!
@bold kernel is the mp7 good outside of factory tho? and for that trade, any swaps u recommend I do from the barter trade?
the mp7 is really good right now
you dont have to switch out anything for that trade, unless you want a different sight
right now the mp7 is as good if not better than a val
ohhhh really? wow nice
the ap sx ammo has 53 pen, which can go through lv 5 armor easily and lv 6
that ammo is like 1k per bullet tho
and the fmj ammo which is cheaper at 200 roubles a shot has 40 pen, which goes right through lv 4 armor
i mean, if you have the money for the mp7, you should definitely be running it right now
small world lol just played some rounds with someone who works in a differnent departement for the same company
lol
nice
he's like "what do you do?" and i told him and he was skeptical but i threw some facts out and alas
we do work for the same company
i was pretty broke today until next friday so i bought 24 rice-a-roni cups and a 40 pack of beef sticks
beef
that's for me and my 2 roommates. It's not gonna be like a taste odyssey but it's nutrition
mhm
40 pack of 1oz beef sticks was 24.99
24 pack of rice-a-roni cups was about the same. and we have canned vegetables and soup and chips and stuff
hello i need someone to help me
@craggy plover hi there, sry I cant help ingame atm but if you just want to ask some questions I will probably be able to answer
Yo... how do I even advance? Im new and i almost empty my begginners inventory lol
@pastel rose how well do you know extracts
nothing at all lol, im level 2
only map i have been playing is customs, prepo says i need to hand over 2 shotguns, i turned 1 but he says... find them in customs?
do you just wait in shearpa waiting room to get into assistance voice channels
You can get the shotguns from any map, not just Customs
But you need to kill 5 Scavs (AI) on Customs
When I play customs, I kill a few scavs then I get shot in the back
To learn the maps, start an offline raid and have the wiki pulled up on your phone/second monitor
someone invited me and teamkilled me lol, they took my last pistol i have left, any good cheap but good weapon?
And I feel like I'm playing against hackers cuz idfk where I die
And I feel like I'm playing against hackers cuz idfk where I die
SKS from Prapor
Fuck it's double sending
@pastel rose you HAVE NO GUNS LEFT!?
jesus fuck this discord is fucken huge
yeah... i kinda have no guns left lol, i think i have enough money to buy an sks
what level are u?
@pastel rose scav runs?
@dusk dawn he's level 2
i see
I am also level 4 with 700,000 Rouples
Don't play factory
There's no "easiest" map to play
well... the least desireable from players?
My favorite map for Scavving is reserve, but that's because I know it really well
Everyone Scavs on reserve
Least desirable from players might be interchange, customs, or woods, imo
reserve huh... i'll give it a try
i also scav reserver
how do i make sure the sks has a cartridge? i cant seem to find him with prapor
do they have a cancel timer? its almost 22 min now lol
What are the benefits of Fast MT over the TC 800?
and Ex Fil
why are the prices so different when they effectively do the same thing
exfil
better faceshield hp
you can wear ears
best all around
tc is just a faceshield
you can wear ears for all of them
looks cope
you mean the in helmet headset?
eww
dont use them
they are bad ears
just use an exfil, better faceshield and ear proc
Ear protection doesn't really help anyways most of the time lol
so an exfil can have face shield, headset, and ear protection is what I'm picking up?
I see
because it has the chips which go over a part of ur face
@hot zenith Use your TC-800 w/faceshield and be confident but beware of what guns and ammo can penetrate your helmet if someone is shooting nearby; if you fight head on or turn around to run you have a better chance than exposing the side of your head and repositioning due to the lack of ear coverage
just wear an altyn
I mean, most of the time I wear a peen helmet headset or just an altyn
just wear an altyn
@bold kernel He has a tc-800; he should use
go use an altyn if you want Nate; enjoy yourself
I never tried any of the high tier face shield helmets
they are fun asf
@hot zenith Im level 52 atm; the faceshields only go to tier 4 so BT 545 will pen
besides altyn
even the tier 6 vulcan has a level 4 faceshield so i dont usually bother with them at all
I'll use an altyn or a killa helm if im memeing
vulcans make u turn like garbo
But tc-800 is fine if you came across it; I use the gear
I feel like I'm probably never going to use an expensive face shield helmet lol
runa altyn
Unless you have millions use your nice tc-800 its better than what 60% of players will be using LOL
altyn makes u feel like chadthundercock
tru
If he has low perception skill he cant hear as well through the altyn
i dont recommend it for low level players
real chads dont need to hear
at least perception skill of 15+ so you gain 12% more hearing distance with alytn
I did have a dude creep on me while I was looting
and he point blank mosin me in the altyn
too bad it was lps kek
r u benshapiro lunar tf
real chads dont need to hear
@bold kernel
Real chads also know how the stats in the game work
Any good youtubers that do high kill games I can watch? Besides Lvndmark - wanna see someone more patient play if there is any
why tf r u quotin stats goddd dam
I did have a dude creep on me while I was looting
@hot zenith Yes; what is your perception skill on your pmc?
lemme check lol
just wear teh chad altyn daddy
The alytn should reduce hearing by a set %; use this number against your perception skills bonus percentage to hearing to figure out your approximate hearing range with altyn
if you think that is reasonable; hell ya altyn
are you a scientist wtff
I pretty much never run an Altyn if I'm not running level 5 or 6 armor
plus I play in a party and someone has a headset
π€·
I pretty much never run an Altyn if I'm not running level 5 or 6 armor
@hot zenith Same
More power to you
Enjoy your tc-800
I'll probably try running tc-800 more since they are pretty cheap
I hope a pistoling rounds are stopped by your face shield and your mighty tv-110 protect you from all the mosingling with lps
π€
how u level up perception tf
well, I did run into a dude with a 5-7 and like 4 extra mags of ss190
how u level up perception tf
@bold kernel Real chads know how
so I probably would have died with a face shield
Anyways
so I probably would have died with a face shield
@hot zenith Ive penned altyns with s190 in 3~ rounds before
ss190 has a pen of 37 so after the first two shots there is a 60%~ chance to go through the altyn and kill the person
I didnt hit his faceshield either
top of the helmet full altyn
I think battle buddy will give you the numbers :)
on your phone theres an app or something idk
for ap 6.3 ammo, is it even worth aiming for body on lvl 5+ armor
no
It does the math for durability/armor damage from certain bullets; im estimating that math with 60%~
so, do I go for head or leg meta
and those two won't stop it very much; it will probably ricochet off the altyn more than be absorbed but π€· luck of the draw
I think theres a 0.925% chance for exfil/lzsh helmets faceshields to stop ap63; because 37 pen means it has a 3 pen margin of error to penning tier 4(40)
If I want to se gun which use .366 ammo should I use eko or any other ammo or this ammo is really weak overall?
ekooooo
High flesh damage but the three rounds available; EKO; FMJ; GEKSA are relatively low penetration compared to the other rounds in the game.
EKO can pen tier 3 armor effectively and tier 4 semi effectively
FMJ will pen tier 2 or 3 and does more flesh damage than EKO
GEKSA can pen tier 1-2 but does significantly more flesh (123 damage per round) into legs or arms
If I want to se gun which use .366 ammo should I use eko or any other ammo or this ammo is really weak overall?
@desert compass
Thanks, I will change my main gun then
There is a new AP .366 round being added in the next patch on monday @desert compass Try it; its slated to be one of the best rounds in the game
Pog
π
Do we know which trader will sell it?
Not yet; when customs update is out next week we will see
I will be using it for sure; I already run geksa in 75 round drums in Reserve and mag dump everyone into their arms/legs/body
Arm/leg meta; 4 rounds into the same limb and you kill the person π€· its fun at times to mess with the weirder ammos
I'm using akm right now and it took me 13 bullets to kill pmc with paca xD
I'm using akm right now and it took me 13 bullets to kill pmc with paca xD
@desert compassLOL this is why I prefer the 366; it does more flesh damage taking down those lower armor targets faster; too each their own though :)
Lots of low gear dudes around so π€·
@ me how it goes; be careful with the uber chads wearing tier 5-6 armor though π§
Leg those morons and get yourself some full armor and helmets π€£
β€οΈ Im off for now; thanks for poking my brain and letting me rehash all this info for my own reinforcement
does shturman's common stash fund spawn even he ain't there?
yes

hey guys isn't the barter trade with mechanic 1btc for mp7 kind of bad? it's 116k for the bitcoin but you can buy an mp7 for 40k on the flea market... surely the tac laser, sight, flashlight and I think that's it isn't worth 76k?
90% of the trades for guns arent worth it
The only trade I can think of thats worth it is the rechargeable battery for ADAR
its roughly half the cost of the normal gun
AHH OKAY THANKS
oops caps
from now on I'll just trade the btc with therapist for money (best use for btc?) and buy mp7s and mod them up
Is the interactive map by map genie a good reference
yes
Ok thanks a played a couple matches back when it was in beta Iβm re downloading the game Iβm ready to play again
from now on I'll just trade the btc with therapist for money (best use for btc?) and buy mp7s and mod them up
@tiny stag you can buy weapon cases and thicc weap cases too.
thanks syntaxxl, I have both of those but if I trade btc for them... are they FIR status so I could sell them on the flea market?
don`t think you can sell bitcoins in the flea anymore
can someone explain what's "tag and cursed" mean and when it happens 
can someone explain what's "tag and cursed" mean and when it happens
@neat snow it just means scavs have hax on u can always know where you are

iβve barely learned my first map on the game, any tips on what to focus on next ?
kinda confused on what loot is good and where to sell, i mostly get shit loot
Id say customs is overall good to learn the game. But for money/loot either interchange, shoreline hunting the hidden stashes(get a map that shows all of their locations) or reserve, but while having amazing loot when u know where to look, reserve does also have quite complicated/hard extracts as PMC. @split prism
there's plenty of merit in trashruns @split prism
i like hitting the office computers in interchange
there's a lot of them
and often untouched
only one of them has a kiba alarm, so people might drop by
get a big bag, spacey rig
and you'll be a few hundred k roubles richer
or just go for ground caches, if you get lucky you can walk away rich
thanks yβall πͺπ½
holy moly my scav spawned with this shit
Ehhh, I've seen a scav with red keycard. Now that is f'ing crazy when that happens.
I'm level 11 so it's pretty big for me
So, All i have is one more pistol and a few thousand rubles left, Can anyone assist me in growing?
I get the kills, but i always get collapsed on
@proper apex I think that's a fantastic find early on. Easy money.
I did this quest and died before extracting. I went on another raid, did it again and extracted and I still didnt complete it. Any idea?
Can you not go into the gas station on shoreline anymore? The fire is always killing me now
@long haven on the run when you extracted, was it a scav run? becouse it will only count a PMC extraction, also not sure but it might not count also if it was a "run through"
@analog fulcrum it was PMC
Is it possible to pack a mag while doing surgery? I see streamers doing it but when I try it cancels
@stone nimbus did u try to do surgery, then start packing the mag?
starting a heal cancells the packing, but if you start packing after u started the heal it should work
Hmm. Is there a certain timing to it maybe? My dude just starts closing the kit every time I try
@long haven then idk, unless it was a run through, should complete it if you survive as a PMC
maybe a bug
@analog fulcrum it was a run through, ill try again normally
ah well then thats probably the reason
@stone nimbus sry IDK then
I just know I can pack mags while healing, not sure when was the last time I tried it when doing surgery
Is grinding for a bitcoin farm worth it?
Only after you already have a sizeable chunk of cash imo. I just now added more than one card since I finished Private Clinic and sold the case
if you buy 50 GPU's at 335k per gpu and put them into a lvl 3 farm it will take roughly 32 days to recieve profit selling them to therapist for 110k @lunar brook
basically the earlyer in the wipe u build the bitcoin farm the more profit its gonna make in the long run, only needs a bit longer than a month to make back the investment as the person above me said, but thats also if u dont count price of building the bitcoin farm itself and all the upgrades that are required for it
are AVS plate carriers worth it?
theyre nice but i wouldnt go out of my way to buy one. i prefer m2 rigs economically, although they have no 2x2 slot they are pretty cheap on the flea
6b3tm is what I've had people recommend me mostly
@crimson jasper My budget for armor is like 110k, any recommendations at that price?
AVS is good but it really depends on what you're bringing
like I'd use it if I'm brining drum mags
is the bastion helmet good?
I'm trying out an MP7A1 SEALS loadout
I found my helmet, but I'm trying to see what's the most effective armor
yet also cost effective so I don't waste too much
nah am just asking cuz I got one yesterday
@rough hare Bastion at base is just a class 4
But you can up it to be a (partly?) class 6 helmet
ooh
an M2 rig is 30kish and another maybe 10k to repair it, has good repairability as well.
I went to reddit to find out what the materials did
Best to worst for repair prices
UHWPE > Armor steel > titan > combined > ceramic > Glass.
Material also changes how fast armor breaks down when shot
Titan > UHWPE > armor steel > combined > ceramic > Glass
But honestly class 4 wont do you much good if you run into lvl 30+
@proper apex If you can go slightly above that (or depending if you want a full one or are ok with reapiring) try to look for a Tactec
Class 5, only thorax
fairly sizeable armored rig and repairs best
Not much difference between armored rig and armor + vest imo
Maybe weight/space in some cases. I dont prefer either more than the other
just get killa armour lmao xD
ahhh aight
is a joke, idk if its worth it to use the killa armour xD
how cheap is tac tec repairability?
It is.
Its a good armor
class5, repairs best, but covers stomach if thats an issue
Tactec and Killa have same material, polethywhatever
Which is the cheapest and easiest to repair
might as well get the plate carrier since it's also a rig
Its decent
if the repair price is lower than killa's armor then it was worth it
^ Yeah
So what you guys are saying, TacTec and AVS plate carrier is meta?
Meta is using a Slick π
What's a slick?
man there is no worn out 6b43 armour on the flea market
class 6 armor, currently OP
it's all perfect condition π¦
a slick is basically a lvl 6 trooper armor
Is that the actual name?
Shouuuld be
buy a moonshine and 5 vodka and the 6b43 is only 325k instead of 400k XD
holy shit 400k?
anyone have a <1/2 durability 6B43 on them? I'll pay full flea market price for it
i had my mate shoot me in the arms at factory lol
6b43, also known as Zabralo is one you need below 50 durability for a quest
Just that its hard to BUY one, cause you cant really get them FiR
@tiny stag 50% 6b43's sell for a tonne on the flea, if you don't plan on just insuring and damaging it in raid with a friend, fence might sell it which could appear on the flea
Considering noone uses them, but everyone needs a broken one, the chances for a broken on Fence are... near non existant

I got mine of fence...
Well, you wont find a red keycard then π
I'll keep an eye out, thanks
@languid flare wut
he's saying you used up your luck
just a joke about rarity and... yeah, that
it wasn't really lucky, I saw about 3-4 go up within about 25 minutes, if anything I was unlucky as I couldn't afford them and missed out on a couple xD
make sure to filter by max 50%
Well, considering from Fence would be the cheapest for that due to being damaged and all, they'd be the first to pop up, but still, good hint
I had to pay somewhere between 450 and 480k, so not the cheapest, fence is one stingy motherfucka
Huh, surprising
fence makes everything far too overpriced, thats literally the only thing I have bought from him
Usually I see him being either totally overpriced, or totally undercutting everyone
Erm, I just died, and I can hear the fecker who killed me looting me, I just have a black screen and nothing else
I can't press ESC or anything
.
Nevermind, just came back
@wide jackal I think alot of people just got booted from the game
Ye
What do I need to attach pnv10t to my 6b47 helmet?
@lunar brook pnv-10t dovetail adapter + norotos titanium advanced tactical mount
@solid sandal start with crickets and half the t-plugs and all the matches unless you want to buy stuff from traders
@solid sandal you can make expeditionary fuel with crickents and lighters, but if you don't have the hideout upgrades just sell them
hello all, ive done 6 raids, all on customs. im very new. ive been playing a little offline to learn the map, any suggestions or help
are you struggling with anything in particular?
just want to be confident to extract on scav runs to start i guess
I have most hideout upgrades most of them are level 2-3 except the stash @rough hare
getting to level 10 would be nice too
you can make blue fuel in lavatory with crickents and zibbos
well scav runs are literally free money you don't have to be too careful to extract most of the action will be over imo
okay cool
scav run I had yesterday
just learn the map and play tactically i guess
I don't have eod lmao
wym
should i do scav runs for that to maybe benefit instead of offlines
@rough hare how lucky are you?
like you always get god scav runs like hell dude
i only got 1 insane scav run so far
I am good at finding people with more loot than they should have
kekw
i am the scav taxman of interchange
i either cant find anyone or get 1 tapped from heaven
@cloud sparrow to level up generally focusing on the quests is the fastest way, also surviving a raid always gives extra XP, so maybe avoid unneeded combat
i'm the onetapper from heaven xD
while scav runs are just a nice supplement to your cash income, they dont give any XP to your main character, your scav has his own seperate lvl and skills
ahh okay
they are good for taking loadouts from people and using them in pmc runs imo
yeah I say scav run instead of offline @cloud sparrow
thx man
best way to get bronze lions in raid besides safes?
I seem to have little luck with safes
best way to get bronze lions in raid besides safes?
@rough hare valuable spawns; rooom 310 on west wing shoreline and a bunch of other rooms
Or the valuable spawn under Podium in Reserve by the heli
shoreline π’
basically anywhere that can spawn valuable
shoreline π’
@rough hare Could try interchange safe room; Ive found prokills; lions and bitcoins and gp coins in there
I am unaware of this interchange safe room you talk of
π€
As a noob, Iβm planning on just running customs for a decent while. Was thinking my next goal would be completing tasks and trying to get Cases for stash management ~ what are some of the best cases to start off with?
depends on what you get often
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kf1FEqW04q0 @rough hare
After figuring out how to open the Safe Room Extract, I discovered some other very cool uses for the two new keycards added for the Interchange map in Patch 12.4
This video just gives a quick overview of how to open the extraction, and the location of some hidden keycard loo...

ah, thats a pricy keycard
It is; but it is worth it
Need some help figuring out what loot to keep or sell. Anybody with a high level wanna help
assuming I live in every raid I go for it
A secure 5 man team can survive until 2:30m in the raid left; and escape via under the mall
Getting around 20 scav kills each at least for over 8000 exp
I normally play solo or duo
Its a worth card but hard to use solo
Duo its badass; have your friend cover the saferoom and alternate who uses it (get him to buy his own to open it for you and vice versa)
OR have him wait for you to make it down there
@rough hare You could try managers office in Labs too; e z lions
200k key
never played labs
its the best map in the game provided no cheaters are in lobby
also provided I don't get killed in the first minute
if you find another entry card
keep it for offline mode
then whenever your bored just explore labs offline with AI's and learn the map
I have a couple
Your first real live raid in labs you will know a lot about it already
Bring your best juiciest gear to offline
to practice :)
I also don't play reserve so haven't faced a raider
try labs :)
they have faster aiming time; it forces you to up your game
Go offline tho
practice practice practice
if you die in offline it doesn't matter right?
You are correct
YOur gear will sustain no damage at raid end
Your ammo will be as it was when you entered the raid
Etc etc
did the devs mention anything about bit coins returning to flea market?
You dont even have to exfil; you can 'Disconnect" and keep all your stuff @rough hare
did the devs mention anything about bit coins returning to flea market?
@waxen cairn I dont see why they would be in a rush; the taxes you paid evened the price out on flea market to return the same as therapist anyways
But not that I know of :P
if you bring a FIR key(not the actual entrance one) to labs offline does it lose FIR
OOO
Good question
I mean it shouldnt
but Ill test it if you wait 5m?
ill use one of mine
I have one, and I probably wont sell it, just curious
@strong barn ahh i never thought about selling them to therapist -.-
Anything you bring in offline still has their fir status when youβre in offline
They donβt lose their fir status either
@strong barn ahh i never thought about selling them to therapist -.-
@waxen cairn You would get 116k for each coin as it stands
The tax to sell the BTC at 140k was 34k
:Shrug:
@tepid fossil Thank you lovely
thanks!
@strong barn yea i just checked its 116k might just sell them to therapist instead of them chilling in my stash, thanks β€οΈ
I have watched alot of labs and know particualr areas, but couldn't piece it together
@strong barn yea i just checked its 116k might just sell them to therapist instead of them chilling in my stash, thanks β€οΈ
@waxen cairn much love
I have watched alot of labs and know particualr areas, but couldn't piece it together
@rough hare Incoming 3d map of labs~
maps hurt my head in this game xD
Iβm pretty hanzy
https://eftmap.com/labs/ @rough hare This is 3d and manipulatable
Tarkov Labs Map - best map
Okay Iβll be taking my leave
Union break is up @tepid fossil see you later

@rough hare Do you have flea market?
level 38 lmao
I just got a bronze lion in my scav case; did you need it FiR?
OR just for your scav case??
If you need it FiR for a task then oof
FIR, living high, thanks for the offer
π
am so lost lmao
@rough hare Do you have a microphone? wanna chit chat in chit chat 2
if you guys don't mind a 15 y/o joining sure
Hello, I'm EU I got quiet a lot of hours in the game but this wipe I only just started
So I'm doing the beginner tasks to level my traders
Wipes before I only played LABS and just PvP
But now I need to level traders
Would be cool if someone else (Better or also doing start tasks) could duo up and we can protect / help each other
is it found in raid?
yup
personally I would sell it
400k
as good as it is with the current meta right now I don't think its worth going in with
you're better off making profit with tier 4 armor
@hallow hemlock where did u find it found in raid???
Was dragging my backback stack form my PMC to inventory, it froze - i hit esc, back to char screen, Bockpacks are gone. Da fuq?
@raven gazelle i found in inside the gas station on customs
after killing all the scavs
where inside?
@rough hare LOL
I forgot I had Tarkov running, still searching for the Zabralo
Come back cause Scav Case goes "RUSSIAN NOISES"
Look.... still in flea, refresh, oh look. 0/85 armor for like 380k
damn, player selling it?
only broken ZabraloI have seen on flea was close to 5 million rubles π
imagine the taxes he had to pay to put that thing up
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Test_drive_-_Part_1
is this quest necessary for kappa
cause that's so expensive
i went customs but go wherever u feel comfortable
I'd go to a place where a sniper is less likely to go
Looking for a tarkov pupil i can take under my wing DM me (NA)
grooming 0w0
@rough hare Yeah, afaik. Honestly didnt look long, just bought it
when should i start working on my Hideout? like immediately?
yes
im always starting with workbench
A lot of upgrades are behind other upgrades or behind level or skill limits. So upgrade what you can when you can
Why I can't give this for the gunsmith part 1 ??
Take off attachments
Wich one ?
take off sprut and put laser on pump handle
Ok thank you
IF that does not work I can compare your gun to wiki to help
That is just off tip of head
Also need tactical choke
Sprut is out and the laser on the handle but still can't give him to finish the quest
ok it's about tactical choke ?
bouche must choke π
My french is REALLY rough, but Bouche translate to mouth, right?
thank you for everything and the answer in franch ahaha
french* damn
yeah you're right
french kiss on the bouche
I do remember my teacher telling us to "ferme la bouche" Or something like that. Canadian here so I had to take french lessons in school for a couple years.
I assume shotgun worked after that.
quebec got you learning french lol
Are you building according to wiki?
with what i can find, i don't have access to the flea yet
lvl 9 soon
Wiki has EXCELLENT guides to all the tasks
I'm using quite a lot tbh
i have been stuck on kappa mission i cant find shroud mask anyone can help ?
farming both scav case and scavs
don't forget old gas station and giving tree
ive found so manyyyyy shroud masks recently
Only shroud masks I have found where on scavs
ive gotten them on scavs and in scav case
how can i level my strength to lvl 2
here is what I did.
Bring in two empty metal fuel containers every raid. I run light loads so I also carried a car battery in my gamma. Bring in 8-10 grenades every raid and just toss them at the start of a raid.
walk, DON'T run. running will not level your strength.
thank yo usir
question
i read somewhere if you bring empty fuel tanks
and survive
does the key need to be fir
they will fill up?
When I really started to focus on levelling strength it really did not take long to do
fuel tanks will NOT fill anymore. That was a bug when they first were introduced
ahh okay
also drop the empty fuel tanks while looting. They are cheap to buy on flea.
Key does NOT need to be FIR.
should my character be in the yellow state where it says heavy or what ever
In the task description is should say FIND IN RAID
awesome
when i hit 45kg or what ever
loosk like find in raid. First I seen like this.
There ya go
just like killa helmet
Sorry for wrong info. Never seen that before π¦
you can just vendor it for like 90k
buying it removes FIR status. The one he finds he need to turn over.
yeah?
I got another question, I found a dog tag case, in customs room and put it in my alpha and died, now I canβt sell it on the market, am I able to get it so I can sell it?
you can vendor it to therapist
So. go to shturmans cache and use bought key, get new FIR key and use that for task π
Yeah but it wonβt sell for 400k
ah, I assumed you meant sell on flea
then keep it
I guess
Itβs currently holding like 30 tags
I thought there was a way to cheese it
What if my I give to friend
And he give it back next Raif
Will that work
no
Can u cheese the system
once it loses fir status it doesn't get it back
Damn
But I bought salewas for my friend and dropped them in raid for him and it said for
Fir for therapist mission
because those salewas dont have to be fir
Oh
somewhere around that
If i invite someone and kill them for a quest will i get banned? like a friend
im not sure if its classed as boosting and dont want to risk it
@bold kernel he need to craft some thatβs the easiest way
Or at least thatβs how I did it
If i invite someone and kill them for a quest will i get banned? like a friend
@cunning arch Does not work. Friends and party members will not count as PMC kills for raids.
@celest condor Whats the best way to kill PMC's on shoreline
Resort and go ball to the wall. If you are into that.
For me my best hunting grounds were at pier and power station.
around pier I set up on the hill beside the little landslide on the road (tunnel side) and I could see part of the road and the beach. Got a couple kills there.
From there move away from the road towards power station. Check behind yo on the hill behind burning gas, people like to sit on that.
Then check power station side, look on hill other side of road. Move to hill across road, between power and terminal. Check power. move toward resport and cross canal before you get to resort and back down towards power. Stop on hill looking at power and check power and hill beside power. That hill used to be popular but ben empty for a long time now.
mate i dont know shoreline map xD
Move past power and stop halfway between power and road. Check hill beside road, people like watching burning gas from there.
That is how I got my PMC kills.
Gimme a minute.
aight
when is next wipe pliz
@young jungle Im pretty sure it wipes like once a year and it wiped a couple
oooo and the next update
caus im level 10 in the game and someone told me that they will update and wipe
@cunning arch
anyone want ot grind faqctory duos
so go A, look at 1. move to B, look at 2 and C. Move C and look at E and power, move through D to E, look power, move to F and look at gas and 3
Does that make it easier π
@cunning arch
When at A, be aware for people moving from 2 towards tunnel
3 is also a good spot to shoot towards gas and 2, but I prefer F since nobody checks there.
Yeah alright i will try it now
and from F I would commonly sto by the road and loot towards crane for some scav kills. rarely PMCs unless EARLY raid since there is a spawn there
NA 34 M level 21, Rookie looking for someone to game with. and help with tasks.
