The next upgrade would either be Beta from Peacekeeper or Epsilon from Punisher questline

the beta is expensive

I see so basically ambush and kill them
pulsar kite
well when you shoot someone in the legs and his legs blacked out , first he cant move in the first few seconds , he need painkillers to move to a shot distance example to cover then immedietly healing and cms and you must not be in their face cuz they mostly wear good gear and have good guns , so you basicly dead xD

the really op snipers dont have that much of a drop

What about an svd

so if you sniping from dome at reserve , you dont need to aim really high with a good bolt action sniper

depends on distance, but technically yes
pulsar kite
What about an svd
ok im not that sure about it but i think svd starts droping after 800 meters

I think its muzzle velocity was 900 but im not sure

its about that range then

Maybe also some armor, if you've gotten any from a scav run
loud linden
Last time I went with 200k gun I forgot a vest and a helmed smh

What's the best way to deal with AI scavs as a player scav? Started not long ago, so I kinda have trouble telling players apart from AI at first glance and that got me killed a few times. Should you just shoot everyone on sight when soloing?
gilded cargo
Any chads wana help a hatchling out?
frozen bison
where do you find flash drives
steep oxide
i keep being told to spam q and e
anyone willing to help show me the ropes? i feel like I'm kind of lost in how i should be approaching this game
icy swan
@frozen bison In raids. Check co.puter towers or around desks. Honestly though just loot everything you can to increase your chances. There is no spot where flash drives ALWAYS spawn.
cinder hound
@frozen bison nice nezukp
Nezuko
If u trynna find flashdrives just hit places with a high amount of computers
And look where the flashdrive would be on a normal computer
The tents near custom dorms also have a decent spawn rate
Also safes
@manic token
What do u mean by dealing with ai scavs
Don't u just not shoot them?
manic token
Sometimes, but not 100% of the time. A couple just ran past me when I spawned in and I didn't shoot.
manic token
Yes.
cinder hound
Wait im confused then
manic token
Unless you shoot them, though, right?
cinder hound
Yea
manic token
That's what I was asking. If I should always shoot any scav I see.
cinder hound
No
Dont shoot them unless u think its a player scav
Or a raider
Cuz raiders shoot u
steep oxide
my biggest problem is indetifying scavs vs players, since most of the time it ends up being either i kill them or i take a sec to see if its a scav only to die cause i didnt shoot first
cinder hound
As u play the game
frozen bison
@cinder hound thx
steep oxide
fair enough
cinder hound
Its just playing alot and analyzinf
Cuz like
Ai scavs power slide
They run back and fourth in a straight line
They will irratically wiggle
And they will talk
And if u emote for them to come
They will follow u
steep oxide
yeah but i mean thats all assuming you have the time to notice these things. what happens when you turn out a door and theres a mofo right in front of you, you dont have time to care u blow its head off
fast rivet
^^^
and just remember, if its an AI scav and you shoot at it, all his friends won't be so nice in the next few milliseconds
steep oxide
see thats my issue, i cant wait to not have that issue so i can use them to my advantage if theres still players around
but then one wrong shot, boom you got the whole lobby against you again :p
bold jetty
if youre doing a scav run and kill one in one area and run to another area the scavs wont shoot you in the new area
its a prox. thing
steep oxide
oh, ok didnt know that. so if say im in customs and shoot a scav in like the east side area, then go dorms the scavs at dorms wont care?
bold jetty
yeah as long as the bossman aint there, bosses will shoot you regardless of being a scav or pmc
steep oxide
thats also good knowledge, also didnt know there were bosses good to know
bold jetty
yep everymap has a boss, im not sure if they added on to shoreline yet but there was talk ab it last wipe
manic token
Thanks for the answers, guys.
bold jetty
np im waiting to match on customs tryna do tasking so i thought id check in with the official disc
steep oxide
i just now learned about there being quests. just accepted them all lol
can u complete quests on scavs?
bold jetty
lol gives you goals when in raid so you arent just mindlessly running around the map
nope
steep oxide
aw
bold jetty
has to be on pmc
but if you have a find in raid task for items and you find it on ur scav it counts
bold jetty
you can buy those
steep oxide
or the selewa kits
bold jetty
bc its not a find in raid task
steep oxide
im not lvl 10 yet
bold jetty
selewa yes or u can craft in hideout

Before I deploy like an R word into customs with this gun... is there anything I can do as a level 9 with level 1 traders to mod this piece of rat gun?

one sec in raid

Aight take your time
fast rivet
you unlock the polymer handguard from prapor pretty early, which gets you a foregrip and laser slot of you loot those in raid and slap on
rose junco
The grizzly medkit will only repair debuff effects if you let the full heal animation play right? So I can just cancel it to avoid fixing a bleed or whatnot
limber mantle
Anyone got low recoil budget m4?

moe honestly no
maybe a cobra site if it lets you
you wont get into modding that much til you either unlock flea or lvl 2 skier and prapor

Some one did. I started creeping towards the central underground room with the power switch and heard someone and ran back to D2 and the power was on

Why even play when some loser is just gonna wait for you at the exit and take all your stuff

Don't use gate 3 extract if you can avoid it

idk woods used to be fun but they added way to much way to fast

Ya I wouldnt disagree not a huge fan of woods either
final hill
lol i think woods is the worst map
What do you mean? You dont like spawning in the middle of fuck off no where and not knowing what to do, where to go or how to leave?
barren trellis
wandering along. die to silenced sniper... gg
wandering along. walk into a scav in a bush. 1 shots in the head... gg
yeah that sucks too, having to spend 5 minutes tabbing back and forth figuring out where u are on the map
this last life i had a sniper / suppressor / scope as a scav. was excited. died in 30 seconds of spawn... gg
bold jetty
honestly woods reminds me of when i first started, although its not too hard to catch onto now
final hill
I basically just had my bf take me to get Jagers dumb folder since he knows the map

honestly its fine if you're able to read a map and look at landmarks

unless u spawn near no landmarks

So I am kind of confused about what to keep versus just sell
I am only level 7 so I cant access the flee market yet
I found a reddit post with quest items to keep, but other things like harddrives and zippos, or electric parts like MGT
They sell for a lot but also have some trades
fast rivet
bang in what you're looking for, if you click on the item the page tells you which trader to sell it to and how much you'll get non flea https://tarkov-market.com/
bold jetty
if you dont have EOD id recommend getting rid of most ur stuff unless its a hard quest iteam ex flash drives or raid ans.
bold kernel
I just found a flash drive which are apparently rare
bold jetty
yep keep it
bold kernel
Looking back I think I sold one in one of my first few days rip

You can put them and keys in your documents folder if you have one

I know Woods best. It pays to know those maps and remember the landscape so you won't worry about being fuck all anywhere when you spawn.
bold kernel
*laughs in 2 weeks last wipe trying to get 2 FIR flash drives for skier*
oh did i also mention that i sold a vss for mechanic... for only 49k....
i am pain
icy swan
Selling and I think a combo trade with a dealer.
icy swan
Also. Play those maps in OFFLiNE mode first to learn the maps without having to worry about losing gear.
That will save you from how yall are feeling about woods. Thank me later.
barren trellis
offline mode doesnt help u from being randomly spawn camped or exit camped or bush scav'd
icy swan
Knowing the map is the best asset you have.
barren trellis
avoiding the map u mean

Those things you are talking about happen on EVERY map.
