[slow linden]

icic

[haughty tulip]

I'm gonna try to hunt people from a distance

[craggy sapphire]

:(

[haughty tulip]

So not fully camping

But I got a sniper so

Close range is not an option

[slow linden]

I hope you know

I respect you having fun

but GOD do I hate snipers on reserve

[signal girder]

If you went in with a gun at least, then you have upgraded from gollum to wormtongue

[haughty tulip]

Well it's my turn

I'm tired of getting sniped every time I go to turn on the alarm

[craggy sapphire]

I did

[signal girder]

ok lol

[craggy sapphire]

I went in with an ak and a helmet

[unborn compass]

you dont bring a pistol ?

[signal girder]

you know i love ya, man :>

[unborn compass]

im now broke F

[signal girder]

for like, a day

[unborn compass]

lol fr

[hardy marsh]

I do badly want to build one but it’s just so expensive

[haughty tulip]

no

[slow linden]

btc farm ruins the point of the game for me

[haughty tulip]

I got enough to hold angles

[unborn compass]

i got the last gp crafting i idnt know it takes 3 days of having generator on lol

[slow linden]

so I just opt not to build it

[craggy sapphire]

rat time

[slow linden]

GOOOOOD

[hardy marsh]

I’m very proud

[haughty tulip]

Reserve made me build everything in my hideout

[unborn compass]

yeah i understand that , this just mny first wipe if i have constant money gear fear will go away

[craggy sapphire]

Factory or interchange?

[slow linden]

147 mil ;)

[haughty tulip]

I spent 25m on hideout and everything comes from reserve scav runs

because I just mess around with my pmc

[craggy sapphire]

What?

[slow linden]

he wants you to be a CHAD

[haughty tulip]

Like mosin factory

[craggy sapphire]

What am i supposed to do

[haughty tulip]

Reserve scav

At night

[signal girder]

^ yeah, that works

[haughty tulip]

Godly raider kills

ez 1m

[hardy marsh]

First wipe as well and I also have gear fear I recommend using your best gear and have fun with it while it lasts

[slow linden]

yea this is my first wipe

[signal girder]

500k can buy a cheap kit tho lol

[slow linden]

I lost gear fear cause I have a stupid amount of money

[craggy sapphire]

NOOO

[rugged yacht]

@craggy sapphire how is rat fun

[haughty tulip]

If you get stuff from raiders you never have to fear losing your gear

because you always have gear

[craggy sapphire]

I WAS GOING TO TYPE SOMETHING

[hardy marsh]

I’m sitting at 24.5 mil

[slow linden]

I got 147 mil

[craggy sapphire]

BUT I HAD MY MOUE ON MY GUN

AND I DISCARDED IT

XD

[fading violet]

This wipe's economy is super fucked

[rugged yacht]

I’m at 80m but I just bought a green and black card for laboratory’s

And 2 thicker cases

[unborn compass]

true true

[craggy sapphire]

I am level 23

[unborn compass]

dora is always down bad

[slow linden]

true

but..

[haughty tulip]

That's what drugs cause

[unborn compass]

have you done gunsmith par 1-15?

[slow linden]

so am I

[craggy sapphire]

I basically can't have fun

[haughty tulip]

Tarkov drugs

[craggy sapphire]

Without being lucky

[slow linden]

another rat ruined by sj6 😔

[haughty tulip]

Rip

What time is dark dark on reserve

[unborn compass]

ive been knocking quests out left and right

[signal girder]

170k kit

[craggy sapphire]

You have 12 mil

[signal girder]

with a few meds and stuff swapped

the kit is 170k tho

[slow linden]

SELL THE THERMAL

[slow linden]

P L E A SE

[haughty tulip]

free kits

[unborn compass]

lol wtf

[haughty tulip]

The was free

The hunter as well with silencer

[rugged yacht]

Dovah

[signal girder]

I got them both as quest rewards lol

[haughty tulip]

The vulcan is free

[craggy sapphire]

?

[rugged yacht]

Please sell those guns

[haughty tulip]

No

[craggy sapphire]

What guns

[haughty tulip]

It's fun wasting guns

Most are not FIR

[craggy sapphire]

Oh

xd

[haughty tulip]

So I just bring them with whatever I got

Who said gear fear when you have endless gear to lose

[signal girder]

only wanna sell if i need money. kinda wanna see what happens to the price

[slow linden]

fair

[haughty tulip]

Well

It's the same for every market

[signal girder]

actually takes less cells if i dont sell the thermals lol

[haughty tulip]

The longer you wait there;s gonna be more

Hence price goes down

[rugged yacht]

I did an experiment

[haughty tulip]

In theory

[rugged yacht]

Where I deleted all my roubles

Cause I was bored

In 10 minutes

[haughty tulip]

21h is pretty dark in reserve right

[rugged yacht]

I was back to running t5 armor with altyn and kitted m61 m1a’s

Economy is very scuffed

1 interchange run 2 tetriz 1.4m

[haughty tulip]

That was before the nerf

Now

[rugged yacht]

No it wasn’t

I sold them on the flea

[haughty tulip]

Now tetriz is 300k

[rugged yacht]

YIKES

[haughty tulip]

yep

[rugged yacht]

how much green bat

[unborn compass]

90k

ish

[rugged yacht]

Really

[haughty tulip]

100k

96k lowest

[unborn compass]

ye sold one earlier lol

[rugged yacht]

Still 100 per tho

[unborn compass]

tuff

[rugged yacht]

Per restock

[haughty tulip]

Still worth taking for now

But I guarantee it's going to keep dropping

[rugged yacht]

Ok well

[unborn compass]

thats what i heard

[rugged yacht]

1 gpu

Is 1.7m

[unborn compass]

true

[rugged yacht]

So find 1 gpu and you can run full kits

[haughty tulip]

Since no one can barter

[rugged yacht]

Don’t be a greedy turd

[unborn compass]

i got lucky last night it was 1.6 so i bought some

[rugged yacht]

Take 1 gpu and leave

[haughty tulip]

Hmm

[signal girder]

moonshine case gave me 600k

[haughty tulip]

That's debatable since it's situational

If there's fighting and stuff yeah take and leave

[signal girder]

almost paying for itself after it screwed me over

[rugged yacht]

I got up too 80m in 3 days

[unborn compass]

i did my first moonshine ... got like 80k worth no joke

[rugged yacht]

Slicks r pointless on interchange

[signal girder]

Yeah it did that to me on the last one lmao. Fucking gun loots

[rugged yacht]

Run an altyn defender armor m1a and 2, 50 rounders of m61

[fading violet]

I have only been doing the 85k rouble scav case, is moonshine really worth it?

[haughty tulip]

If it pays itself

Yes

I believe it's worth

Unless you are trying to get another barter

[rugged yacht]

Idk man moonshine wack

I use my fir moonshines on case

From 11sr

Honestly the setup I put above is the b3t setup for interchange

You can run vector with RIP it also works

[haughty tulip]

leg meta

[signal girder]

Not really. Just doing it for OFZs for quest

[haughty tulip]

No thicc boy thicc enough to deal with that

[rugged yacht]

When I use rip

I’d shoot stomach head or legs

But with defender

[haughty tulip]

Yehh

[signal girder]

I'll probably finish crafting 5 OFZs before getting one from moonshine

[rugged yacht]

It covers stomach

[haughty tulip]

if they don't have stomach protection

it's best strat

[rugged yacht]

I usually go stomach for abt 1/2 a sec then down to legs

Looking for stomach coverings gets u killed so legs is usually better

You die less from ks23 with the defender

[slow tangle]

I just learned that sanitar spawns in west wing the hard way

[rugged yacht]

F

[haughty tulip]

looool

[rugged yacht]

Bottom floor usually

[haughty tulip]

[slow tangle]

I was heading to 306 for the task in west wing

[rugged yacht]

F

[eager ermine]

why do i always die when im alone and always get fat loot when im playing with other people

[slow tangle]

and i got fked round the corner

[rugged yacht]

R u new

[eager ermine]

not really

played for a month now

[rugged yacht]

U prob don’t know when to leave then

U probuallh get even fatter loot but don’t know when to just go

[signal girder]

Because 4 E Y E S are better than 2

heh

[rugged yacht]

That too

Solo is more fun tho

[fading violet]

Because when playing with a group you are reducing the number of hostile players on the map

[eager ermine]

no no

[rugged yacht]

Are u good at pvp

[haughty tulip]

Yes but it gets hardter to play

[eager ermine]

i guess so

[rugged yacht]

Don’t be a rat when u don’t have to be a rat

Works same way with chad tho

Don’t chad when you shouldn’t chad

Like if u see a hatchling don’t crab up to him

Or if u hear someone looting run out there kill him then run back

[signal girder]

goddamn fleamarket bots won't let me buy sugar

[rugged yacht]

Lol

Just go farm it

[signal girder]

but i don't wannaaaaa

[rugged yacht]

Go reserve and hit food boxes

Literally free sugar

Got 1/2 a holo filled with sugar all fir

Just go hatchling no need for armor

[signal girder]

I've basically been playing tarkov like a facebook game for the past few days

[rugged yacht]

Loot food then dash

[signal girder]

with hideout and stuff

[rugged yacht]

Yeah

Max hideout op

I don’t really use my hideout cause I’m weirdo

Always forget fuel

[signal girder]

You'd probably have maxed it in like, a few weeks lol

[rugged yacht]

It’s my first wipe

Got it maxed 2 weeks ago

[craggy sapphire]

I justcan't

[rugged yacht]

Btc farm scav case everything

[signal girder]

fuck!

[rugged yacht]

Dora ur pfp...

[signal girder]

50k sugar offer on fleea.
BSG: Hey, do a capcha

[rugged yacht]

Lol

U know the bots

When they get a captcha

JUST LITERALLYNSOLVE IT BECAUSE ENTITYS HAVE NAMES

[signal girder]

EXACTLY

[rugged yacht]

CAPCHA DO T DO ANYTHING

[signal girder]

The capcha does nothing because the images aren't varied AT ALL

[rugged yacht]

You can log out and the capcha goes away

[signal girder]

Did you get killed with gear?

Not ripping on you... this time

[rugged yacht]

Dying with gear is part of game

Especially this wipe dying with a slick is nothing

1 gpu pays for 2 slick kits

[unborn compass]

my computer just black screened for like 10 mins i blame it on tarkov

[rugged yacht]

Tarkov makes my pc blue screen

[signal girder]

We made it for him, lol

a few days ago

[unborn compass]

id be scared if it blue screened

[rugged yacht]

I get scared too spooks me out

Thought I got BSod from malware or something

First time

[craggy sapphire]

I literally hold a angle for like five minutes straight

[rugged yacht]

And probuallh die

[craggy sapphire]

And then i look away for like two seconds

And then he peeks and one taps me

[rugged yacht]

Peeler advantage

[signal girder]

Is this interchange?

[craggy sapphire]

No

[signal girder]

I hope you're upgrading your hideout

Then you can get millions without even playing the game like me 🙂

[craggy sapphire]

Is there any supressors

for the mosin?

[signal girder]

bramit

[unborn compass]

ive done 3 85000 scav cases and 1 moonshine im down like 80 percent of what ive put in

F

[rugged yacht]

Don’t use myosin

[signal girder]

Are you using the mosin for any particular reason? the sv98 is way better and cheaper

[rugged yacht]

And sv98 is bad too

[signal girder]

why?

[rugged yacht]

If ur sniping use dvl

Or m1a

[signal girder]

If you think its cos of trigger delay, they patched that ages ago

[rugged yacht]

Or sr25

Or rsass

[signal girder]

sv98 is good, don't listen this guy

[unborn compass]

i need a stupid cowboy hat

[signal girder]

man, not everyone has 150k+ to burn on a sniper. Dora has 400k left

[rugged yacht]

Wait

Dora

U got 400k

[craggy sapphire]

Yes

[unborn compass]

yeah but dora is a god if he has 400k hell use 400k

[rugged yacht]

Bruh

I see why ur mad about dying now

[signal girder]

That's what I'm sayin

[rugged yacht]

U got btc farm?

[craggy sapphire]

Exactly

[signal girder]

lmao

[craggy sapphire]

That is what i am trying to get

[signal girder]

btc farm for dora

if only

[rugged yacht]

Someone’s gonna male abt this

But

[signal girder]

male about this?

bro wat

[rugged yacht]

M9a3 q round of 7n31 and 16 ap 6.3

1 round of 7n21

[craggy sapphire]

I am trying to do tarkov shooter

[rugged yacht]

Go interchanges

Oh

Idk then ask pestilence

[signal girder]

oh yeah. with 400k go ahead and burn 1.6k-2.7k per bullet

[rugged yacht]

He’s good about doing things with low money

[rugged yacht]

2k for 1 round 400 per ap 6.3

[craggy sapphire]

Is it anything wrong with it?

[rugged yacht]

Gun costs 17k

[rugged yacht]

Total cost is less than a mowing

Mosin

[signal girder]

He doesn't have the trader unlocked

[craggy sapphire]

I have these quests for jaeger

[rugged yacht]

Oh ur low level

[craggy sapphire]

I only need jaeger lvl 2

[rugged yacht]

I thought u level like 35

What level r u

[craggy sapphire]

I am level 24..

[signal girder]

no, he's lvl 20 something

[rugged yacht]

Oh

[signal girder]

that's why im sayin

cheap stuff

[rugged yacht]

Run sks with bp ammo till u hit level 40

[craggy sapphire]

This fucked me up

[signal girder]

like the 35k sv98 which has NO TRIGGER DELAY

[rugged yacht]

Nothing else

[signal girder]

but yes, sks is fine too

[rugged yacht]

And it 1 taps altyn

[signal girder]

no

2 thorax shots for BP rounds

[rugged yacht]

That too

[unborn compass]

yeah i do that and i got the craft that makes 260 bp ammo so im bota go crazy

i need a good sks class doe

[rugged yacht]

Run interchange with rat rig sks bp ammo and an empty container

[signal girder]

relying on Interchange hatchling runs fucked you up

[unborn compass]

fr lol

[rugged yacht]

Hatchlings r cringe

[unborn compass]

i just dont like ic

[signal girder]

lmao

[rugged yacht]

And now they got no money KEKW

[signal girder]

see, it's not just me @craggy sapphire

I swear i'm not doing it to bully you

[rugged yacht]

Dora was fine he was doing it cause he needed it

[craggy sapphire]

Yeah

[signal girder]

It's because i wuv you ❤️ 😦

[craggy sapphire]

I was doing hatchet runs cuz i needed to

lol

[rugged yacht]

These kids got 15m and don’t bring out gear

[craggy sapphire]

I was going fully chaded out when i had money

[signal girder]

well, you could have done stash runs, but we all know what you think about that

[rugged yacht]

If u got 2m

U run gear

Not slicks but not pacas

Money is still super easy to get but not as easy

[signal girder]

Should still run decently efficient kits until 7m+ imo

[craggy sapphire]

Okay

[rugged yacht]

I would recommend u reserve instaed of interchange because of tetriz thing but then I remembered that they needed drop down

[craggy sapphire]

Where should i go then

[rugged yacht]

Nerfed drop down

[bold kernel]

is the mpx any guds

[rugged yacht]

I’m

[signal girder]

What L said is okay

[rugged yacht]

I’d say interchange

[craggy sapphire]

I mean to do tarkov shooter part 1

[signal girder]

It's just that interchange has become a piece of shit with flies piling onto it

[rugged yacht]

Go tts and German nowhere else

Oh

Customs

[gritty lance]

Did they? Felt like they netted tech light too

[craggy sapphire]

ok

[rugged yacht]

Techlight not nerfed but drop down is

Garbage room now

[gritty lance]

How do you know

[rugged yacht]

Do t even go there anymore

[signal girder]

Are you using the mosin?

[rugged yacht]

20 runs not 1 gpu or tetriz

[craggy sapphire]

I literally just found twi tetrizes there

Yes

two

[signal girder]

mk. if you run out, sv98 is far cheaper and way better ergo, mag fed

[rugged yacht]

@craggy sapphire go German and tts check for gpu the. Leave

[gritty lance]

10 runs of tech no gpu, found them in German texho and in idea offices

[craggy sapphire]

Okay

[gritty lance]

Idk feels nerfed but not the rest of the map

[craggy sapphire]

In my opinion tech light should need a key

Änd then just make it insane

[signal girder]

If Tarkov goes horribly, at least you can play Tetris. lmfao

[gritty lance]

Ultra med pops off just need to spread out the loot to other stores

[craggy sapphire]

Fuck ooff

[signal girder]

hahahhaa

[kind hedge]

is eft basically arma rust?

[craggy sapphire]

no

[gritty lance]

No

[kind hedge]

in which way

[signal girder]

I don't see any tryhard clans

[kind hedge]

so it's less rust than arma

[signal girder]

closer to arma in the sense that there is little to no hand holding

[craggy sapphire]

Idk how this guy saw me

[oak abyss]

ive never played arma but i would say eft is rust without crafting or base raiding

[craggy sapphire]

He was like 60 meters away

And i didin't make a sound

Wasn't even looking my way

[kind hedge]

what about in the sense of engagements? could i treat EFT like arma, except the objective is to secure resources?

[signal girder]

technically there is a bse with the hideout and crafting with the workstations

[craggy sapphire]

And then just fucking one tapped me

[kind hedge]

and personally i dont care for base raiding, i prefer stockpiling my goods

[signal girder]

That's actually not a bad way to put it. The only thing missing is the understanding of equipment which is very different to ARMA equipment

[oak abyss]

@signal girder that's why I specifically mentioned base raiding.

[kind hedge]

bet. do i need friends to play with

[oak abyss]

Depends on your goal.

[signal girder]

It would help a lot. especially if you're just starting

Sherpa would be a massive help

[kind hedge]

well i don't own the game just yet because i'm trying to think about whether or not i'll actually come to enjoy the game lol

[signal girder]

could have stalked you for a bit

[craggy sapphire]

NO

I just spawned

[signal girder]

That's pretty bullshit :/

[craggy sapphire]

Yeah

[oak abyss]

Your best way to progress is to do quests @kind hedge. Quests are best done solo so that you can fly under the radar. Having a team to help you do quests is only helpful whenever they are all going in just to help you and they don't have quests of their own. If you're playing in a group and everyone has their own shit to do then solo would be better. Plus you learn quicker as a solo. Kindof.

[obsidian minnow]

probably just knows the spawns

[kind hedge]

i'm personally averse to pvp in some kinds of games (rust) but if i handled this game like arma it'd probably be less frustrating i think

[craggy sapphire]

He wasn't even looking at me

[bold kernel]

is there any way to get a gun to 0 ergo?
Managed to get my mpx to 0.99999 but I doubt anything lower is possible

[cosmic locust]

mosin nagant

[oak abyss]

If you don't like pvp then don't buy eft.

[signal girder]

Basically;

• if you're fine with punishing games
• have loads of time to burn
• don't need to spend the purchase fee on something else important
• have lots of patience

[rugged yacht]

Are u good at rust

[kind hedge]

i'm dogshit

[unborn compass]

lol

[rugged yacht]

Ok u will like tarkov then

[oak abyss]

If you want to play EFT only as a loot similator where you just run to places on the map all day for loot and you don't make pvp the center of your motivation to play then you will not enjoy eft at all.

[signal girder]

You won't have a choice with pvp, sadly. it's unavoidable

[unborn compass]

u play r6?

[kind hedge]

nah

[civic canyon]

when you say that do QUESTS do you mean tasks?

[rugged yacht]

Most good rust players come to tarkov and get mad when garbage players kill them

Cause u can be a sentry turret and still kill people

[kind hedge]

i've got like 300 hours in arma 3 and have spent most of it in a clan doing ops

[signal girder]

I wonder why rust players become aware of tarkov the most?

[oak abyss]

You have to not only engage in pvp but you also have to like it and have the desire to do it frequently in order to like eft.

[civic canyon]

wellyn?

[bold kernel]

nvm I had some defiance ironsights which added some ergo
I have now achieved 0 ergo lmao

[signal girder]

there seem to be a lot of rust players coming here

[civic canyon]

wellyn!

[signal girder]

Oh streamer crossover?

[oak abyss]

Rust is bigger than arma if im not mistaken. so naturally you'll see more rust converts

[signal girder]

ah

[unborn compass]

true welyn plays it and gets hella views sometimes

[kind hedge]

so i'm not new to that kind of shooter but also it's weird. i normally don't play games for pvp but it's not as if i'm going to write it off for pvp

[oak abyss]

rust and rainbow 6 are the two biggest games that players come from. i came from r6 myself.

[rugged yacht]

I went from rust to tarkov and it was awful at the start

[civic canyon]

i found the game from wellynd videos

[rugged yacht]

Hitting someone 9mtimes in the chest and they don’t die

[signal girder]

There is also no skill-based matchmaking, so right off the bat veterans can (and occasionally will) come in and clap you

[kind hedge]

particularly cod? get fucked. r6 was fun and i liked the ability to choose a loadout and approach a situation tactically

[oak abyss]

oh you guys are newer eft players i see

[civic canyon]

and then i went to wach some revews

[unborn compass]

well i mean lots of players are rats its ok to nmly fight 1-3 people every once and a while some raids you dont figt at all\

[oak abyss]

cause people like welyn didnt start playing until recently.

well welcome to tarkov everyone.

[kind hedge]

obv all this stuff i'm stockpiling has to be used for something

so

[signal girder]

What did they say about it?

[unborn compass]

then youll like this game just dont get to madd when tarkov tactically kills your life

[kind hedge]

i might not have the time investment

[bold kernel]

he started playing over a year ago

[kind hedge]

i def didn't have the time investment for EVE

[rugged yacht]

Somehow people rat wrong

[signal girder]

Yeah, if you're not playing frequently at the start, you'd be unable to absorb the absolute plethora of new information the game thrws at you at the start

[civic canyon]

i said that i found it from welyn and then checked out some revews of the game

[oak abyss]

@bold kernel yeah he started exactly 3 wipes ago. that's pretty new for an eft player.

[unborn compass]

yeah ngl itll take a couple hundred hours to not be completely confused

[rugged yacht]

People thin ratting is hiding in a corner the whole game

[signal girder]

Yeah, I mean what did the reviews say

[unborn compass]

yeah f that

[kind hedge]

what's the main confusion btw?

[rugged yacht]

Those rats usually can’t ever make money and never win fights

Then there’s the good rats

Who don’t crab walk

[bold kernel]

true thats only because wipes are so long

[oak abyss]

You gotta realize that some of us have been playing since the closed alpha or the early beta so to us "over a year" doesn't mean shit for a game like eft where players are still considered new after having 1k hours.

[rugged yacht]

But constantly play slower but always moving

[bold kernel]

We know

[signal girder]

• The fact there are no maps and you have to learn them from internet jpegs
• knowing which items are valuable and why
• how guns are modded
• what makes a good gun/armour
• how the health system works
• how the questing works
• how raid mechanics work

[unborn compass]

ammo type , how loud youre being , where to go , how to extract , when to loot , what to sell , how to do tasks , map , modding guns , how to heal

what to put in alpha container

[civic canyon]

oooohh, well they said that the game has a lot of content, it will be hard and it is very realistic

[oak abyss]

literally everything. there's no point in making a list because what makes eft confusing is everything lmao

[signal girder]

Pretty much sums it up

[civic canyon]

ik

[unborn compass]

the hard part is an understatement haha

[signal girder]

Exactly this

[unborn compass]

true

[kind hedge]

tbh out of all those lists the only thing i think i'll learn easy is how to heal because i did spend quite a bit of my arma time doing ace3 medical

and even then that's a stretch

[oak abyss]

I mean if you look up: "What is X game?" each video can explain it perfectly in like 2 minutes. But all "What is escape from tarkov?" videos are like 10 hours and a joe rogan podcast long.

[rugged yacht]

True

[signal girder]

does arma force you to only heal one body part at a time with specific injury types?

[oak abyss]

it takes forever just to explain the premise and the purpose of eft

[rugged yacht]

Tarkov can’t be taught u gotta learn it

[signal girder]

I can see arma doing that

[unborn compass]

haha fr no run down of this game can be in 5 mins

yo noob question but whats sherpa?

[oak abyss]

The best "What is EFT?" guides ive seen on YT do a piss poor job at best but the sad part is I couldnt do better unless i made a 20 minute video.

[signal girder]

a person being a guide

[oak abyss]

A sherpa is a player with lots of time on eft who has applied to bsg to be a sherpa and now their name is green in lobby and they help people

[unborn compass]

oh thats what sherpa hub is for

[kind hedge]

arma vanilla is not like that but in ace3 medical the body is segmented out into head, chest, and limbs (arms/legs). limbs can be tourniquet'd to stop bleeding, injuries can be various types (which different bandages handle differently), and excessive blood loss can cause you to black out, requiring a transfusion of blood/plasma/saline

[unborn compass]

oh damn cool

[craggy sapphire]

WHAT

[signal girder]

That's actually really similar to Tarkov

[kind hedge]

bet

[craggy sapphire]

I shot a scav twice with the sv 987

Didin't die

[signal girder]

Which ammo?

[civic canyon]

i still dont understand how shepras exactly work and how to get one

[unborn compass]

oh cool very similar

[craggy sapphire]

The ammo i used for the mosin

[signal girder]

which was?

[kind hedge]

alright i'm interested

[oak abyss]

you go to the sherpa hub and request a sherpa.

[kind hedge]

also for reference can i overdose on morphine?

or something similar

[oak abyss]

not yet

overdose and addiction are planned but not yet in the game

[unborn compass]

thoughts on this loud out after i fix it up? and whats decent ammo for 9x19

[kind hedge]

gets shot in the arm
slams 23 tourniquets on it
downs 2 gallons of morphine

[rugged yacht]

I can’t wait for overdose and addiction

If I’m ever cornered

[oak abyss]

@unborn compass just run quakemaker or pst gzh

[civic canyon]

in what chat? and will i be in a voice call or in a chat and how much does a shepra stay with you?

[rugged yacht]

2 bottles of ibuprofen can get me out

[signal girder]

looks like SNB. One of those shots must not have been a limb or a miss. The only explanation i got :/

[kind hedge]

all i know from arma is that you take enough morphine in a short enough time period and you die cause your heart goes bye bye

[unborn compass]

ok ive been running quake people sometimes just eat the bullets

[oak abyss]

those are probably better questions to ask in the sherpa hub.

[craggy sapphire]

ok

[civic canyon]

in what chat?

[oak abyss]

Are you shooting their chest or legs

[reef prairie]

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[oak abyss]

because you have to aim at the legs with quake

[civic canyon]

i didnt mean what server

[unborn compass]

yeah i shoot head only so when i miss its just like a feather hitting their armous

[oak abyss]

then run pst gzh

[unborn compass]

kk

[oak abyss]

its an mp5 theres no reason to complicate it with ammo. just run the cheap shit that works

[unborn compass]

yeah and ive been liking the TV rig

[signal girder]

Another thing to note is that the game wipes everyone's character every 6 months or so

[reef prairie]

there are channels where you can request a sherpa

[civic canyon]

ok?

[unborn compass]

the tarkov wiki has saved my life for every quest

[civic canyon]

do i really need a sherpa?

[signal girder]

strongly advised

[kind hedge]

oh that's kinda nice

[reef prairie]

if you are willing to search for information, no

[unborn compass]

atleast use the tarkov wiki

[oak abyss]

yeah in the early stages of eft its just as important to watch tarkov as it is to play it

digesting as much information as quickly as possible is what separates the people who succeed and the people who struggle.

[signal girder]

separates the people who quit out of frustration and those who don't

[oak abyss]

Also shizu, nihongo ga hanasemasu ka?

[signal girder]

Only a little

lmao

[oak abyss]

hangul mal haseyo?

[signal girder]

although I was surprised at how much I knew when i was in Japan

[signal girder]

Almost none. I know how to swear, though

[civic canyon]

lmao

[obsidian minnow]

What's best ammo to use now for MP5?

[kind hedge]

i might play some arma for some time before i hop into tarkov - make sure i can fully appreciate tactical shooters or something

[sour bramble]

Looking for someone to help out a newbie? Ive played a few games just trying to learn .

[obsidian minnow]

arma is not similar to tarkov

[signal girder]

Didn't you have more productive stuff to do with your time?

[obsidian minnow]

to get an understanding of tarkov, you should just play tarkov

[signal girder]

I know I would take it back if i could lol

[kind hedge]

fuck idk

[signal girder]

If I could go back, I would

Didn't realise how much of an rpg tarkov would be

[rugged yacht]

If u don’t play tarkov u can’t improve at tarkov

[kind hedge]

i bounce between games a lot, tbh if tarkov is another mmo then so be it

[signal girder]

You say that like it's a bad thing, lol

[rugged yacht]

Tarkov is not an mmo

It’s a realistic survival game “realistic”

[signal girder]

not an mmo, but has enough rpg elements in it to get me hooked

[kind hedge]

is it ARK levels of time dedication

[rugged yacht]

It can be played multiple ways

[signal girder]

Was like when I desperately wanted money on runescape and lost 9 years of my life

[rugged yacht]

Open world exploration.
Pve game
Pvp game
Quest game
Survival game

[celest sage]

ARK survival evolved?

[kind hedge]

yuh

[unborn compass]

yeah kinda

[celest sage]

Imo ark is pretty easy compared to this game it’s a different grind

[unborn compass]

i have 2k hours on ark what a good game

[celest sage]

Like a grind in ark might be gathering materials

But a grind in this is stressful

It’s a very unique game

Sucked me right in

[signal girder]

I should be grinding irl

Grind my uni GPA

[celest sage]

Crazy experience

[kind hedge]

which is not bad, i just don't know if i have the attention span to put into it

[celest sage]

Other games I have to have a tv show on or I get bored

[kind hedge]

not to mention i dont want to feel like i'm missing out by being solo

[celest sage]

This game I don’t

[signal girder]

Kind of will be missing out if you play exclusively solo

[kind hedge]

damb

[signal girder]

The game was made to be squad-based

[celest sage]

Ark is one of my favorite games

But this is too

[kind hedge]

i know that monster hunter is a game that i really enjoy and i mostly dont play it because i have no buds to play with

arma i played in clans because i liked the idea

[signal girder]

I know that feel, man. Have a virtual hug

[unborn compass]

i mean its easy to find people to play with though , i just played solo for my first like 300 hrs because i didnt wanna be a set back for people , but its better to play with people to gain their knowlage lol

[rugged yacht]

Solon is better

[kind hedge]

(also the difference between the multiplayer games i play and then my single player ones like FTL, factorio, space engineers)

[rugged yacht]

Lose more loot but get more knowledge

[unborn compass]

fax solo is fun

[signal girder]

Not everyone is playing for that reason, though

[rugged yacht]

Why play of u don’t wanna get better

[kind hedge]

sometimes it's not about getting better but just having fun

[rugged yacht]

If ur playing for roubles and not trying to improve go play monopoly

[unborn compass]

" fun " is gonna be the responce

[celest sage]

Imo squad is more fun but solo is more learning

[signal girder]

Some people don't get as much of a kick out of improving. Didn't realise that til I was like, 18

[unborn compass]

knew it haha

[rugged yacht]

The better u are the more fun u have

[signal girder]

Not for everyone

ya gotta empathise, dude

[rugged yacht]

I guess

[unborn compass]

yeah lowkey i dont get as much fun out of games ever sense ive only wanted to get better

[kind hedge]

i believe you there but if it was that easy i'd probably be on my fighting game grind right now

[celest sage]

That’s not how fun works

[kind hedge]

or even SC2

[rugged yacht]

I don’t understand how someone could enjoy losing their stuff

[kind hedge]

i don't

[rugged yacht]

Oh

Never mind then

[signal girder]

I've thought a lot about that for myself. There's actually a kind of fun to... not knowing everything

[craggy sapphire]

I died

I got two kills over 40 meters

Not good

[rugged yacht]

I find games fun based on how hard they are and how different they are from other games

[signal girder]

That's still progress

[unborn compass]

when i was on ps4,3 i used to have the time of my life on ps4 being bronze 2 in rainbow but now im on pc i have to get the highest rank in the games i play

[kind hedge]

i'm somewhere in a middle ground, i want to know just enough to not feel helpless but i don't want to know how to be optimal

[rugged yacht]

My most fun on rust was learning an and mp5 recoil

[kind hedge]

unless it doesn't matter :/

[rugged yacht]

1.2k hours on ukn alone

[signal girder]

Some people find games fun because they're simple to understand and don't take up much of their time. There's a reason why candy crush is the most popular mobile game in the world

[rugged yacht]

People find different things fun tho

I see

[unborn compass]

yeah i got like 200 hrs on unk fun times

[signal girder]

Yeah, kinda adds stress rather than fun once we start caring about rank

[rugged yacht]

Yep

[kind hedge]

don't get me wrong i still do enjoy challenge, i like fighting games after all

[rugged yacht]

I loved rolling kids 1v5

[kind hedge]

i just tend to be pessimistic and losses pile up on me

[bold kernel]

isn't there a warning to tell you if you list something for extremely cheap compared to other listings of same item

[unborn compass]

i hit diamond in brawlhalla then quit because its aids

[signal girder]

That can actually be achieved for Tarkov. The lack of in-game chat helps a lot tbh

[rugged yacht]

Yes

[bold kernel]

yah that shit don't work lmao

[rugged yacht]

The tax on a red card is more for 1m than 100m

[signal girder]

😮

[kind hedge]

is it weird to think of Tarkov as a strategy game in some way? since you may know the map, but you don't fully know your enemy till they're down your barrel

[unborn compass]

watch aqua hes a loot god not a brain god

[signal girder]

That sounds like every high elo MOBA game player's career ever

[bold kernel]

yah I just listed my moonshine for 10k when the avg price of it rn is 350k and didn't get any heads up about that @rugged yacht 👌

[signal girder]

You'll quickly recognise which gear is good and which is not and be able to tell if the enemy is gonna be a hard fight or not

[unborn compass]

im saying i logged 1k hours just wanting to get top 1k , i got it and just saw how the skill ceiling was not that further so i quit , still a great game doe

[bold kernel]

didn't even mean to list the moonshine in the first place

[unborn compass]

bruh gotta pay attention yikes

[faint lodge]

if anyone would like to combat cheaters and exploiters with me report the guy im the video in videos tab and also send me names of others you think may be exploiting or cheating guy can hear literally across the customs map

[kind hedge]

okok just one more quick question, is tarkov repetitive

[signal girder]

I didn't realise how boring low skill ceilings were til i tried astro's playroom on the new PS5, lol

[rugged yacht]

Kinda

There’s always stuff to do

Some stuff is repetitive

[signal girder]

At very, very late game it can get that way. give it 50,000 hrs

[rugged yacht]

Like money farming

[kind hedge]

mostly in the sense of "oh boy time to log on and do the exact same shit i did for the past weeks"

[unborn compass]

yeah theirs only so much you can do before its bland

[rugged yacht]

If ur going for kappa yeah

[bold kernel]

@unborn compass ik I'm just used to when I search something it selects the item I searched and still yet again no warning about the price listing

[unborn compass]

no youre always going forward

[kind hedge]

no clue what that means

[unborn compass]

ah gotchu

[signal girder]

Kappa is a REALLY late game item. So as I mentioned - for very, very late game players it can get repetetive

[kind hedge]

as long as it doesn't feel like i'm playing something like payday 2 where each playthrough of a map feels like it gets handled in pretty much the same way

[signal girder]

Not at all

[unborn compass]

but trust me unless you log many many hours first wipe youre not getting kappa

[unborn compass]

i play pay day 2 its nothing l;ike that haha

[kind hedge]

who knows lul

[unborn compass]

you can be very creative in how you play the game and change playstyle and pathing . loadouts keeps the game fresh

[signal girder]

That too^

[kind hedge]

either way as long as gameplay doesn't get stale. all for that

[signal girder]

It won't

quote me on that

unless you no-life it like a streamer

[kind hedge]

it's documented

[signal girder]

you missed the third part, lol

the disclaimer

[unborn compass]

lol im with shizukesa

[kind hedge]

lol

but yeah, i guess i could spend $45 and see what the fuss is all about

[signal girder]

"I am in no way liable for the loss of sleep, study grades, employment or social wellbeing for any parties involved"

[kind hedge]

heh

also bear vs usec, does that actually matter for anything other than voicelines

[unborn compass]

bear sucks

[signal girder]

Starting gear

[unborn compass]

usec all the way

[signal girder]

USEC has better starting gear for beginners

imo

just lower recoil guns

[unborn compass]

lol yeah its up to you

[signal girder]

also USEC camouflages a little better

[kind hedge]

do they specialize differently or is it really just starting gear

and does starting gear even matter

[signal girder]

starting gear, appearance and voice lines

[unborn compass]

gear and voice lines i think

[signal girder]

It sooorta can

[unborn compass]

you get 500k and random loot you prob wont get to many kills with

just remenmber with bad ammo you gotta click head because it wont pen armour youll end up shooting 30 rounds at a thorax and be like : hows this guy alive "

[kind hedge]

and what's the deal with the wiki saying that they have these "unique skills"

[signal girder]

Just an unnecessary levelling system which has extremely small effects on things like health, jump hieght, weight capacity, etc.

The only real significance imo is that they lock you out of some hideout upgrades and quests which is bullshit

[craggy sapphire]

...

Died again

0 kills

Bc they hidfe in the dumbest spots

[kind hedge]

should i try to specialize in a weapon type? or all round

[signal girder]

If you get frustrated enough, aside from taking a break, you can go on factory with an sv98, hide until all the PMCs kill each other and extract, then go around killing scavs short range

but that's like, a last resort

[signal girder]

At the start, you'll get pretty much 0 choice and use whatever you can find

[signal girder]

lvl 1-10 is the most brutal part of the game

[civic canyon]

cuz of flee market?

or why

[signal girder]

Do you have lavatory installed?

[signal girder]

yeah, fleamarket

[craggy sapphire]

I have everything lvl 2

[kind hedge]

ok, and what about engagement ranges? mostly what's the longest range encounter you'll likely see

[craggy sapphire]

But the intel center

[signal girder]

You can craft shampoo and make 20k every 30mins or so

[craggy sapphire]

Oh

[signal girder]

basically a free gun every hour

[craggy sapphire]

lol

[civic canyon]

?????????

whaaaaat

how

[signal girder]

just make sure to barter peroxide with therapist to get water

[civic canyon]

how do you craft the shampoo

[signal girder]

• buy soap and peroxide.
• barter the peroxide with therapist for water
• go into lav 2 and craft shampoo (green bottle)

but you need fleamarket

[civic canyon]

oh

ok

[signal girder]

Also pile of meds craft in med center will add another 15k every 40mins or so

Basically just passive income

https://tarkov.guru/hideout-profit/

[slow linden]

down bad bro

[unborn compass]

happens to the best of us dora

[slow linden]

uh-huh.

[signal girder]

can be 400m if someone is running extremely expensive thermals. Typically, you'll be fighting from maximum 70m

[slow tangle]

Are thermal scopes that expensive irl too? lol

[signal girder]

Probably

[unborn compass]

id think so

[signal girder]

around $5000

[kind hedge]

so mostly mid/short range engagements?

[unborn compass]

700k roubles is only 10k

[signal girder]

just looked up

[signal girder]

Yeah unless snipers, ofc

[slow linden]

$6,499.00

[kind hedge]

lol

[signal girder]

also very map dependent

[slow linden]

USD

[signal girder]

yeah

[slow tangle]

Makes sense then lol

[kind hedge]

also on the sherpas page i see these "styles", what the heck is the difference between them

like what makes an assault/recon/scavenger

[slow linden]

R A T

[kind hedge]

sniper i can kinda understand

[slow linden]

RATTING 💪

[kind hedge]

together rats strong

[haughty tulip]

best bolt action rifle to get the task of 3 pmc kills

?

[fading violet]

I used sv98 cause its cheap

[slow linden]

imo DVL

[signal girder]

I'm guessing:

• assault = chad
• Recon = mission completer
• scavenger = looting for cash

[rugged yacht]

!sherpa

[haughty tulip]

dvl is bolt action?

[slow linden]

mhm

[haughty tulip]

ah yes

It is

Or so I think

[slow linden]

it is

[haughty tulip]

It is

[slow linden]

as someone who uses it

[idle oxide]

what about marauder

[slow linden]

I can testify

[hardy marsh]

Yo yo I

[haughty tulip]

Ok something less sniper

[hardy marsh]

Yo tobi*

[slow tangle]

Does propital regen all parts of the body?

[idle oxide]

si

[signal girder]

Marauder = more misc exp than combat exp

[haughty tulip]

Is there a bolt action rifle that uses .366 AP?

[signal girder]

oh wait, you're not a beginner

[idle oxide]

vpo 215

[haughty tulip]

Fock

[slow linden]

ayo

[haughty tulip]

Ehm

[hardy marsh]

@slow linden how did you make your 100 mil?

[signal girder]

bitcoin farm + chad

is the only way

[slow linden]

@hardy marsh Air Filters and AESA's, some GPU's here and there as well as tetriz's

[unborn compass]

tobie no btc

[signal girder]

lies

[slow linden]

I took advantage of the fuel economy when I could

Sold a shit ton of matches

[signal girder]

I wanted to, but didn't have the money at the time lol

[hardy marsh]

K because I’ve been running a ton of interchange and made some fat profit

[slow linden]

Cause they were worth so much

[limber notch]

Is a TX-15 good?

[signal girder]

Yes if you have the money

[hardy marsh]

I’d say they are decent

[fading violet]

No because it's a semi auto 556

[slow linden]

Inter as PMC personally isn't my cup of tea but hey, it is nice

[hardy marsh]

Semi auto god tier

[signal girder]

Stats are really damn good tho

[fading violet]

You may as well just use a m4, similar price but full auto

[hardy marsh]

Just gotta have fast fingers

[nimble stirrup]

is the sdn suppressor ever not sold out?

[signal girder]

If your aim is good enough, semi auto is actually better than full auto

[slow linden]

@signal girder also I do not have a bitcoin farm

[surreal wave]

would any1 be willing to carry for some loot?

[hardy marsh]

Nothing truer has been said

[fading violet]

Thats not true, full auto is always better because of how recoil works in this game

[limber notch]

No like I killed someone who has It but thought it was a slightly better adar. Apparently it sells for 150k to mechanic but idk if its good to use

[hardy marsh]

Keep I’d say

Or give to me

[fading violet]

Its literally just a better adar, use it dont sell it to traders

[signal girder]

Yeah, I forgot how we have to shoot people in the head multiple times with m995

[limber notch]

alright thanks

[hardy marsh]

It’s all about personal preference you either like semi more or full auto more

[craggy sapphire]

Died to a chad

[slow linden]

man

[craggy sapphire]

No progress

[slow linden]

y'all out here arguing your stance on full auto vs semi

the rat KS-23M user

[fading violet]

If you genuinely enjoy semi auto more that must means you enjoy losing fights lol

[signal girder]

If I were you, I'd take a break from the game for the day. Completely your choice though, ofc

[craggy sapphire]

Me sitting here can't even afford two ks-23m's

[slow linden]

nono

never

[craggy sapphire]

I am not really that mad tho

[slow linden]

never buy KS' from flea market

[hardy marsh]

Once you play tarkov there is no leaving

[signal girder]

Which would also mean you wouldn't be able to aim for the head

[slow linden]

its alcoholism without alcoholics anonymous @hardy marsh

[worthy topaz]

Anyone down to do some runs on Customs? I just need some help with tasks.

[fading violet]

Are you saying you cant aim at the head with a full auto gun? You confuse me

[hardy marsh]

This is my escape from tarkov

[slow linden]

escape from poverty

[rugged yacht]

Nah it’s just semi auto guns aren’t as good

[fading violet]

Yeah thats what I have been saying

[rugged yacht]

M4/Adar

[signal girder]

I'm saying if someone's dying whenever you're not using full auto, it implies that they're relying on multiple bullets compensating for their lack of aim

[unborn compass]

lowkey chuckled at this haha

[rugged yacht]

If u got the money for an m4 buy an m4

[faint lodge]

i used a hundred roung mag and a 33 vertical recoil m4 who needs to aim with that

[slow linden]

I mean, its true, its what I call this game

[fading violet]

You can head tap with a full auto gun too lol, you dont have to mag dump at every fight, but you have the option to mag dump if you need to with a full auto

[hardy marsh]

Now guys let’s get to the real topics. Killa yay or nay

[slow linden]

yay

[unborn compass]

imma cheapo i never dropped below the starting money just ran scavs untill i was ready

[slow linden]

same

[signal girder]

Yeah, and there are semi auto guns with better stats, too

[hardy marsh]

I can make about 1.7 mil an hour with my scav run I have developed

[rugged yacht]

An hour

[unborn compass]

lets go time to save this even though ill never get kappa

[slow linden]

wear it, coward
