Is shoreline ledx farming better than reserve tech farm? for rubles

tiny pelican
#

Depends on your gear and patience

#

Shoreline has a lot of good loot right next to each other and is loaded with chads but reserve has some snipers and has lots loots within close proximity

short star
#

is key to emercom medical unit worth doing? i heard it spawns ledxs and graphics cards but im still wondering if i should even try

also you have a quest that will need it down the line

Is PRS 5.45x39 ammo good?

sage lance
#

It's the worst

#

Horrible pen and horrible damage

bold kernel
#

anyone down to help me do some woods quest and loot runs level 13 NA

#

What other relatively cheap ammo that I can buy from the traders would you reccomend?

sage lance
#

What level traders?

languid flare
#

What level you and what ammo caliber

bold kernel
#

How do I know what the traders level is?

sage lance
#

I'd recommend m855 from peacekeeper

bold kernel
#

and 5.45x39 cal

sage lance
#

It's relatively cheap, and decently powerful

languid flare
#

PS/BP is best you can get before lvl 10
PS is easy, just buy.
BP you can get if you buy the AKS from Prapor.

#

Comes with a full mag of BP

sage lance
#

You don't really have access to good ammo at low levels

#

Except for trades

languid flare
#

I'd recommend 7.62x39mm PS
For SKS/Vepr KM
Good and early

bold kernel
#

Im going go with 5.45x39 M855 for now, thanks for the help guys.

languid flare
#

5.56*

#

M855 is 5.56

bold kernel
#

Damn

#

you just saved me $130

languid flare
#

Always double check

sage lance
#

I'd recommend switching to the adar if you can

bold kernel
#

guess im stuck with prs for now

languid flare
#

Again. No.
You can get PS and BP for 5.45
Which both are way better than PRS

bold kernel
#

From who? I don't see any

languid flare
#
PS is easy, just buy.
BP you can get if you buy the AKS from Prapor.
Comes with a full mag of BP```
#

Ah, 5.45 PS needs a Quest

#

Still, BP is avaiable from 0

bold kernel
#

So I just need to buy and AKS from Prapor to get 5.45x39 BP ammo?

languid flare
#

Yup.
Can sell the gun to Mechanic
Comes to ~540R per bullet.
Expensive in comparison, but its the best ammo you can get

sage lance
#

Then unload the mags

languid flare
#

^

#

Or just keep the mag, sell rest of gun 😛

bold kernel
#

Will an AKS-74u work?

#

Cause that is the only AKS available

languid flare
#

Its only that one that has the full mag, so yes

bold kernel
#

Im confused, I'm buying the gun for the mag?

languid flare
#

You are buying the gun from Prapor.
It comes with a full mag of BP
You just want the mag, so take off the mag and sell the gun to Mechanic
Tada, you got a mag full of BP

bold kernel
#

Ok

#

Is T ammo good?

#

I'm guessing not

languid flare
#

!ammo

jovial starBOT
bold kernel
#

thanks

You wanna get as close as you can get to around 40 pen, if not higher

For 5.45 thats BP before Lvl 10

Id empty all ur bags and have just 1 stack with all of ur backpacks it it

golden hinge

tactec

Tactec for sure.
That zhuk is dead weight

golden hinge
#

not only that, but the issue is that the lower the dura is compared to the original health amount, the higher chance rounds have to pen it

languid flare
#

Thats what I mean by dead weight :P
Its useless, but weighs you still down.

golden hinge
#

thats true

#

im just giving an explanation so he can understand why i told him that

#

zhuk has 75 durability normally

#

since it is near half of its original durability, it probably can't block much of anything that could pen tier 3-4, and after one more shot it probably wont' block anything that can pen tier 1-2

languid flare
#

Its ceramic too, so yeah
1 or 2 shots and its literally ded

golden hinge
#

armor mechanics are pretty complex and i won't pretend to be an expert

#

but aacpc, slick, tactec, and other armors that use similar types are very effective, not only for their tier but also for lower tier armors efficiency

Hi could someone help me do the Stirrup part 1 ?

languid flare
#

There is no part two
And just do it later when you got decent ammo.
You dont need it for anything anytime soon.

your best bet is to run into factory with pistols if you really wanna get it done

i finished it early out of pure luck

cuz i got a gyurza with nice ammo off of someone

#

Someone tell me a TOZ isn't just a troll weapon. I've been using it for about an hour and I have yet to kill a single person through their legs. Even with Devastator Slugs

rose whale
#

It's definitely a troll gun, the only time I've been able to kill anyone with it was from < 10ft away and with buckshot.

marble sigil
#

can someone tell me please how to practice pvp?

river crypt
#

speaking of troll things... is the Prapor quest getting documents from customs and deliever tyo factory actually real? The secure package thing never appears? is it a USB>

spark marsh
#

It is real.

#

Iirc it should be inbetween the drawers

#

Of customs office

river crypt
#

I've been first in the office on Customs about 9 or 10 times and nothing to collect

@rose whale Bro, say it ain't so! Can't believe they'd do that, especially when your own scav can spawn with one. Waste of a scav raid smh

Take a look at the picture from the wiki @river crypt. Is that where you are looking?

river crypt

yep, been through the wiki and guides.. just doesn't seem to spawn. I'm down to just doing knife runs to look for it

spark marsh
#

Do you have the quest accepted?

river crypt
#

yes. it's active

#

nothing in my quest inventory

#

I'll go again

spark marsh
#

Id restart your game first

river crypt
#

yep fair

hallow arrow
fast rivet
#

also note its a client side item, so its only visible on your end and it can't be taken by someone else

rose whale
#

@hallow arrow while I agree, theres nothing more satisfying than sending a sad soul back to the lobby with arguably the worst gun in the game.

hallow arrow
#

@rose whale True, I just wish it was a one shot or even a two shot. It's bolt action, has a slight delay upon ignition, only has limited mags, no other grip attachments, ammo that can't penetrate higher than 2. Like dude is it hard to kill anyone with it

fast rivet
#

and has the accuracy of a blind drunk grandma

cloud rover
#

If you use it, at least run buckshot

bold kernel
#

How much harder is EFT without a secure container?

languid flare
#

Depends how well you can survive generally.
Harder if you die often.
Not much difference, if you survive often

#

Tho keys will be... interesting

rose whale
#

Last wipe I would have said that you're insane, now with the found in raid flea market changes, I would say more doable? but losing keys would be the big bummer.

languid flare
#

I think its literally just the keys as issue

There is the 'Hardcore Challenge'
Which still allows keys and only keys in container

rose whale
#

but no container? that's like ultimate hardcore lol

bold kernel
#

Tarkov is not a game you should play when drunk, experiencing a manic episode or any of the sort. That's for sure.

Feels safer to me

@gritty sparrow if u wanna play im somewhere on eu

#

or i can bring u those, they arent xpensive on flea

gritty sparrow
#

ooh nice

#

Mechanic is going to give me 6300 XP for it, adding to 32,200 gives level 8 with around 2,300 left

#

@austere sand I will probably try a scav run as derpy suggested, later, but I'll let you know if I'm available tonight : )

Alway try to be somewhat self sufficient.
Its no shame to ask for help with Gunsmith when its parts you cant get easily, but 2 HDD really isnt hard 😛

if I die in 10 raids for 2 dang HDDs, then I may need help

#

otherwise I'm soloing it : )

From vids i watched, most engagements are medium range inside the buildings, espcially in the hallways then?

Yeah he was arms length in front of me tho lol

bold kernel
#

So many PVP experts here, while I struggle to kill scavs.

gritty sparrow
#

Scavs are funny to deal with in my mind

rose whale
#

it's always a roll of the dice whenever you get into a scav encounter

gritty sparrow
#

unless it;s a player, you can weave back and forth and tap em

#

well, coin flip really because they are either turned around or locked onto you

rose whale
#

Is he going to be braindead? or is he going to 1 tap me from 100m away?

gritty sparrow
#

Back of head taps are so funny XD

#

scavs are definition of min max

#

Oh yeah has BSG fixed scavs teleporting thru doors yet

#

A raider almost nailed my team in dorms yesterday cuz of the bug

bold kernel
#

9/10 I get lined up on the scav and die to a player.

2 days ago

fiery latch

diff browser worked ty
@fierce mortar Glad it worked :)

#

Thats odd, I have 2 sicc cases and Im able to buy another

bold kernel
#

Max: 1

fiery latch
#

No no no

bold kernel
#

Im lvl 38 and hes lvl 3 for me

fiery latch
#

You have purchased this item in 0 pcs

#

Means you can only purchase 1 at a time per every 3 hours

bold kernel
#

lol what

fiery latch
#

You have gotten 0 this hour

bold kernel
#

I bought mine 2 days ago xD

#

I just bought everything for that Sicc, maybe it'll fix itself. maybe wait a bit longer restart my game.

#

It is quite buggy afterall lol

fiery latch
#

Max means you can only buy "x" amount per every restock hours

#

Unless they changed it

bold kernel
#

I know, just that i have everything for it

fiery latch
#

Because I have 2 sicc cases

bold kernel
#

I also have 2 sicc cases, but the first one i got from Marked before the update

#

The 2nd one i bought like 2 days ago

fiery latch
#

Yeah I got 2 from jaeger

bold kernel
#

maybe ill just have to wait idk

fiery latch
#

Hmmmm thats weird

#

Maybe wait for next restock

bold kernel
#

Or i can check after this raid if i am missing one item

fiery latch
#

Its in 10 minutes or so

#

Yeah yeah check if you have the right items

#

Or if you have enough

bold kernel
#

Yeah

fiery latch
#

Because Im pretty sure the max just means how many you can buy per restock

bold kernel
#

Thank FUCK i was missing one item LUL

dark kiln
#

when looking for ammo and whats better, do i prioritize flesh damage or penetration power

cloud rover
#

Depends on what you are trying to do

#

High flesh is for leg meta, high pen for center of mass

rose whale
#

and we all about that penetration power around here bb

silver hornet
#

@dark kiln more often than not you're gonna want high pen

welcome to Tarkov

best TT ammo that isnt too expensive

#

*?

silver hornet
#

all of it should be dirt cheap

#

but why are you using TT ammo regardless

haughty jewel
#

doing the skier quest to kill pmcs with a handgun

#

trying that is, got to get 2 more the first one was afk

unreal imp
#

You dont want to use a tt

idle bluff
#

Use an APB, it'll give better results.

unreal imp
#

I'd recommend a five seven or a glock just because of the ammo

silver hornet
#

The best handguns in the game are the Five-SeveN, the SR1MP, or the G18. Some people like the APB too.

idle bluff
#

Don't judge, Stechkin best sidearm.

haughty jewel
#

and use luger ammo?

silver hornet
#

For the G18, you can either go flesh damage with Luger CCIs, or AP 6.3/7N31

unreal imp
#

G18 or G17 both are good, i'd recommend using single fire and tapping heads but a G18 can function as a leg chainsaw with the 1200rpm

#

If you use RIP the hits to kill is 5 to legs

strong barn
#

SR1MP life

#

SP13 can pen a full tactek in 3-5 shots

#

It has 39 pen; as much as 7n31 for 9x19

unreal imp
#

SR1MP more like five seven with more recoil

strong barn
#

SR1MP has 39 pen if you use sp13
this is the same pen as the new 7n31 9x19 ammo
If your gunna use a handgun; use a shrimp because its economical and the ammo is available--relatively
The SP13 also does around 72 flesh damage
where as 7n31 only does 50-55

unreal imp
#

A glock with 7n31 has third of the recoil and the sights available sit lower on the gun making it easier to use

strong barn
#

200 a round versus 2000 a round
you decide

unreal imp
#

Last time i checked 7n31 was 600 from prapor

silver hornet
#

if you can ever get it

strong barn
#

flea it starts at 1500+

#

Thank you @silver hornet

#

sp13 is less than 200 rubles for a 39 pen + 72 flesh damage round from traders

silver hornet
#

you can buy much more SP13 from Prapor, and no one every buys it

unreal imp
#

But while it is cheaper the gun that it comes out of is 2 times worse in performance USEMC

strong barn
#

sp13 is also around 149 on flea market
the performance for price is unmatched
when they add a full auto Veresk SMG that fires 30rnd mags of sp13 at 1200rpm I'll be very very happy

unreal imp
#

You can argue price and availability but rn a glock is a better choise from the perspective of pure performance

strong barn
#

i cannot justify 2000 rubles a shot for less flesh damage and more accuracy
I also like the sound of the SR1MP just blamming away 🤣

silver hornet
#

yeah I can't wait for the SR-2

strong barn
#

SR-2 will be my go too 100% for labs

#

Shred any armor E Z

#

as long as the price/stats stays the same for sp13

#

All im saying is for over 300% more monetary value per shot I am not recieving 300% increase in recoil using a glock over a SR1MP

Hey all, is there a guide of the order of importance on Hideout? Just started the game and want to make sure I level hideout correctly

MICH is pretty alright, depending on your definition of expensive.

#

Gezoyte, some of the stuff in the hideout allows you to upgrade other parts and each one offers their own benefits. I'll send you a list of what the modules do, one second.

median skiff

Thank you so much

@short star Honestly unless i am putting on an altyn I just use the level 1 replica helmet for bouncing off junk rounds. If you really want you can use the green one that is level 3 for the ricochet chance. In my experience, only the altyn has ever saved me and it isn't cheap.

#

The shattered mask is good too for buckshot protection.

M855A1, or M995 are the only ammo you should use for 5.56

yeah yeah sure. well thank you for your help, that explained me a lot here lol

#

Depending on the weapon or parts it may be better to strip the good stuff off and use it on your own guns

#

I see, as i'm looking to do the best profit possible of my raids, i'm more a low budget for raids than going with expensive weapons and gear and die with it lol. I'm still new and lvl 12 lol

#

one last question please, who should i lvlup first prepor or skier?

#

and if possible explain me what the benefits of doing so

grave glade

leveling up skier will get you peacekeeper

hi guys. short question. im early in the game and i did find two paracords should i sell or do i need them later for a quest?

#

*which means i should keep them?

grave glade
#

sell them, they're fairly common on reserve in the bunkers. I believe you only need it for textiles part 1, which will give you a lvl 48 outfit. Not neede for kappa

guys i got a green labs card in my scav case, sell or keep?

rugged mason
#

is EFT on a mass market engine or is it a built one?

flint condor
#

thank you very much @grave glade

#

@rugged mason Unity engine according to a quick google search

grave glade
#

@flint condor No problem! You can search items on the tarkov wiki and it will tell you if you need them for a quest and any trades you can do with the items. Its really useful 🙂

What quest and region @cyan steeple ?

cyan steeple

eu and its called debut

carmine gust
#

Sorry I'm NA.

cyan steeple
#

mhhh damn

#

thx tho

carmine gust
#

Yup. I'd try the #pvp-lfg chat. More traffic there so more people will see it. Generally good to include your region and exactly what you want to do in the post.

cyan steeple
#

mhhh ok thx for the info

gentle stratus
#

nobody in an LFG chat is going to help you do debut. Your best bet is the Beginners assistance VC

carmine gust
#

The text post not a VC

#

And a good number of us that hang out there help people. It's just another place to try.

gentle stratus
#

LFG is typically mid tier to high tier (or people who think they are mid/high tier) players playing together. From what I have seen they typically take people who are questing on a ride around the entire map (including pvp areas) because that is what THEY want to do there.

eu and its called debut
@cyan steeple I don't really have tips for actually killing the scavs, but you have to be playing as a PMC. Try to go for headshots, and the gas station (not old gas station) is the place I've had best luck with. It seems like they're a little slow to react, so you can easily run past them and get behind them in close quarters. (From what I've observed.) It's not much, I hope it helps, (take it with a grain of salt, I'm pretty new so what I said might have beeen wrong)

carmine gust
#

But if you hear any grenades at New Gas don't go. It's probably scav boss.

gentle stratus
#

Or do USECgun

#

Easy way to get scav kills on customs
Bring mosin- search for sniper scavs- there can be at most 4 on Customs
They stand still in a predetermined location waiting to get shot by your mosin @cyan steeple

rocky cliffs overlooking new gas station and upper parts of the building with usec stash are also really good

Is the aks 74u viable? I was messing around with it, the spray pattern is controllable only within 10 meters

flint condor
#

or a shotgun in dorms XD

#

just did the kill 5 savs quest for prapor that way

strong barn
#

The Ak74U has the most recoil of any of the AKs in the game regardless of how much you mod it @cloud rover
those mods would go further on a different AK

cloud rover
#

I'm forced to run it stock anyways

#

It comes with some ammo too so It isn't that bad of a deal

@gritty sparrow Its not the gun, but the ammo.
Remember that 😛

Thats 9x19
You mean, 7n39? 😄

what do you use firesteel for?

That will do plenty, but a bit overkill too.
BS is fine

@analog arrow one Found in Raid for Collector Quest for Kappa Container

analog arrow
#

thanks @languid flare

silent gulch
#

7n39 is not overkill. Its the difference from 3 tapping thorax lvl 5 armor or 4 tapping with bs at basically same price range. The ONLY real drawback is the extra recoil which I never notice between BS and 7n39. I never buy bs but I will use the ones I find in raid. 7n39 is arguable one of the best bullet in the game

@silent gulch Tell that to Sanitar
The 7n39 does 37 flesh with 62 pen
BS does 40 flesh with 51 pen
Sanitar has over 2400 health points and wears no armor; you can dump 40-55 rounds of 7n39 into him and he will live 🤣 (combined with him popping like 7 stims mid fight)

languid flare
#

@silent gulch BS will 3 tap class 5 as much as 7n39 does <.<
51 pen goes through

snow aspen
#

i think 5.45 is like playing airsoft in tarkov

languid flare

@strong barn Also... Sanitar only has 1270 HP
Of which 360 is Thorax.
Soooooo
10 bullets of 7n39 and 9 of BS 🙂

@languid flare Trust me when I say I have done around 2400 damage to sanitar with magnum buckshot and he heals nonstop with ETG stims and all kinds of shit so it can easily take more than that
And @woeful knoll has a clip of him and I in resort and Maydie dropped around 40+ igolnik into him and---its quite the clip if you have it maydie

languid flare
#

Hmm...
Wiki says 1270
But Sanitar is weird all around anyway

strong barn
#

He is just strange imo

languid flare
#

Bushes? Just a rumor, dont exist

strong barn
#

I hope maydie can get the clip because its really something else lmfao

languid flare
#

Oh, I've seen some shit with Sanitar

strong barn
#

He is the stimlord

#

i wonder if he has max surgery skill

#

I mean he most often has a CMS but he uses it fast and it still takes loads of ammo to kill him so Im curious of the bosses stat layout

languid flare
#

Never seen him use a CMS yet.
Hmm

strong barn
#

Ive heard him click-clack away
and if you kill him and his CMS is missing any uses; he has used it

languid flare
#

I see

strong barn
#

If you kill him before he gets a chance to use stims; he will have a full backpack of his shit

languid flare
#

Every time we fought him he died quickly to headshots
(Not quickly fight wise, just quickly when we see him)

normal dagger
#

am brand spanking new

strong barn
#

But you have to kill him in the start of the fight; if it becomes an extended conflict he seems to never have anything in his bag when I kill and loot him

Im assuming he 'used it' 🤷 but didn't get a chance when I vog grenade him in a different raid as the first player to east wing @languid flare

I guess so

hello everyone

Hello.

suuuuh'

so how in the hell do you find a group

#

or is it based entirely off of the discord like gtfo?

Sanitar needs fixes though.
Mostly how precise they are.
He's a doctor/Surgeon

#

well uhhh

this is assistance

200m headshot with valday and 9x39mm BP ammo on the first bullet is a bit much LOL @languid flare

@normal dagger Yes it is :D

shit i thought my dyslexia was kicking in

languid flare
#

Exactly.
Way 'too good' for a 'civilian'

normal dagger
#

well, any pointers? currently running scav on factory.. anything i should be aware of other than general lay out?

languid flare
#

Well, first of all, Factory is pure PvP
Bad map to survive / learn the real game

normal dagger
#

what would you recommend?

strong barn
#

Reserve or Interchange
Or customs but everyone knows customs lol

languid flare
#

Customs for Quests (Scavs cant do quests, but find non quest items for quests)
Interchange

normal dagger
#

ah man

#

im brand spanking new

languid flare
#

Reserve I will never recommend. xD

Hard for beginner and not everyone can run it

still got cosmoline on my boots new

scav the maps
Nothing to fear but fear it self @normal dagger

would you all recommend solo or with a group?

languid flare
#

Whichever you like more

#

I prefer group
Others solo

normal dagger
#

group

strong barn
#

solo imo because groups will make you more confused until you are established imo
I hated groups but they have value; strength in numbers and all that

#

duo is great tho

languid flare
#

Try both and see what works better for you 😛

cinder hound
#

Group is great

carmine gust
#

Duo is where it's at IMO

cinder hound
#

if u run with good people

tiny pelican
#

does gl 1 shot sanitar?

cinder hound
#

U 80% get ur gear back

#

if ur teammates drop ur gear in a bush

languid flare
#

@tiny pelican Grenades do, so probably.

tiny pelican
#

time to go cheese sanitar

languid flare
#

If he doesnt one tap you as you round some corner

tiny pelican
#

what says he will see me, gl has a explosion radius so i just have to shoot around a corner

languid flare
#

Yes, every corner tho 😛

#

I've seen my duo die to sanitar as soon as he walked inside bottom floor reserve.
Didnt hear/see him, just in, looked around corner, pew pew, 2 rounds of 9x39mm BP in his chest, ded

#

I was behind him and was like WTF

tiny pelican
#

eh ill just let someone else rush in and die to him

languid flare
#

Well, bait always works, but yknow.

Thats another type of cheese 😛

I just got the game last night if anyone has good pointers that would be helpful!

ember mesa
#

@limber sorrel what do you wanna know?

carmine gust
#

Tarkov is a game about ammo and positioning. Map knowledge is key

#

and ammo is always more important than the gun it is in

limber sorrel
#

@limber sorrel what do you wanna know?
@ember mesa Just basics, im trying to learn the map atm

ember mesa
#

Customs I'm assuming

twilit spindle
#

and ammo is always more important than the gun it is in
@carmine gust except for guns like the Toz and Ash12

#

dont use either of those.

carmine gust
#

LOL are those guns?

twilit spindle
#

The most noob friendly rifle is the ADAR2-15. Get one. Use it. You should use it until about level 15 at which point you can swap it for the M4 or the 416.

carmine gust
#

@limber sorrel You watched Pestily's new map guides? I wouldn't recommend the ADAR to heavily just because of the ammo selection early. The 855 is pretty bad. SKS with PS is better but the reload time can be rough

ember mesa
#

Also the sks is very powerful when starting out

fallen cargo
#

you can always go for a ak74u whit bt or bs you can find those on like 10spots on customs

twilit spindle
#

SKS with PS is better but its significantly more expensive. youll find ADARs everywhere.

carmine gust
#

I mean if you find adars and rec batteries to trade for them YAY free gun but you will lose some fights because of the ammo.

ember mesa
#

@ember mesa Just basics, im trying to learn the map atm
@limber sorrel If you have a second monitor then use that for your map, if not then just print it out, it'll be very helpful, especially when trying to learn it at first

carmine gust
#

This guy Tarkovs. Map is so helpful

limber sorrel
#

i just keep switching between in game and the photo

fallen cargo
#

if a new guy want a game whit me i can help you whit the map you need to be age 18+, tho

carmine gust
#

One of those games eh? lol

twilit spindle
#

@ember mesa thats dumb lmao

#

use your phone.

#

google

#

"x map exfills."

#

id bet my left arm 90% of people here have smart phones.

carmine gust
#

The map is way to small on my pleb phone.....

twilit spindle
#

oh, i have a note 9.

#

its beat up as fuck but it works good.

carmine gust
#

yeah old I phone here. Screen is too small to see anything on the map.

twilit spindle
#

but I dont actually use maps, I google the youtube exfills.

#

idk if that makes it easier, I think it does.

carmine gust
#

Yeah watching the exfil vids helped me a lot starting

ember mesa
#

@ember mesa thats dumb lmao
@twilit spindle how is that dumb? if you use your phone you

#

will have to zoom around on everything in order to see

#

you can't fit the whole map on the screen

twilit spindle
#

I dont actually use maps on my phone, maybe its less dumb with your explanation.

#

I find the maps have horrible points of reference

#

so I google the exfills

#

if i dont know them for sure.

waxen breach
#

im level 4 and i know some stuff but every time when i play i get one tapped from nowhere how do i know where people are

carmine gust
#

Learning the spawns. Once you know those you will have a pretty good idea where people are going to be the first few minutes.

twilit spindle
#

you buy you some good headphones IRL, THEN, you buy you some good headphones in Tarkov, and you wear both every time!

waxen breach
#

thanks for the help

twilit spindle
#

and you SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! Especially at level 4, youre not a ninja. Slow and patient! Let the other people fuck up.

carmine gust
#

Or just change your name like I did. Never die again.

ember mesa
#

Don't worry broski

#

you will die a lot

#

especially when starting out

twilit spindle
#

Sometimes, high level Tarkov play can be compared to a chess match. I basically know where you are, you basically know where I am, assuming our level of aim is about the same, now its a battle of maneuver !

ember mesa
#

Aim is not even that huge of a factor tbf

#

it's just who gets the drop on who

carmine gust
#

surviving 40% is doing pretty good.

ember mesa
#

if you get the drop on someone

#

80% of the time they're gonna die

twilit spindle
#

not true.

#

My aim is atrocious.

#

I cant hit the broad side of a barn.

#

The stormtroopers are recruiting me heavily.

#

If I see you, you have to really fuck up in order for me to kill you.

#

thats why when I drop PMCs I always DM them with what they did wrong after.

carmine gust
#

Such a helpful member of the community lolz

twilit spindle
#

That doesnt mean I dont know the game?

#

I know how to win fights

#

and i manuever better than you.

#

I just cant hit my shots so its irrelevant.

carmine gust
#

That's why I love buckshot. When scavs don't have it at least.

twilit spindle
#

I dropped this guy in Olli the other day who'd just dropped a scav

#

He left the scav's shotgun's flashlight on

#

I saw him.

#

I thought he was on the other side of the wall and i almost sprayed into it blindly
