get a sherpa to help you but basically
Something to stop light bleeds
something to stop heavy bleeds
a splint if you run big maps

I usually bring a salewa and a Hemostat

[vocal parcel]

is punisher pt 4 still broken?

[fading violet]

As a low level you bring car, bandage, esmarch, splint and painkiller

[bold kernel]

painkillers are really important too yeah

[civic canyon]

what should i do with an unlimited KIBA storage outlet key?

[fading violet]

You need two keys to open KIBA

[bold kernel]

which

[fading violet]

One is expensive one is cheap

[slow linden]

sell it or use it

[fading violet]

I think you have the cheap key

[bold kernel]

probs

[fading violet]

Just sell that one unless you planning to buy the other for like 5 mil or whatever it goes for

[bold kernel]

@fading violet uhhh prices are broken right now apparently

270k, 370k

540k total

for both

[fading violet]

Wow thats cheap

[unreal horizon]

Wait what

[bold kernel]

fr

dam

I sold the first key which I had from mechanic for 60k

[fading violet]

It was like 4 mil and 80k when I checked like two weeks ago

[civic canyon]

this is the key

[bold kernel]

360k on the flea right now

[slow linden]

he has the pogger one

sell it

[civic canyon]

im lvl 7

[bold kernel]

keep it until level 10

[civic canyon]

ok

[bold kernel]

check prices

[fading violet]

Keep it if you run interchange

[bold kernel]

decide if to sell or not

[bold kernel]

he runs customs

[civic canyon]

how do i check prices

[fading violet]

You cant until lv10

[bold kernel]

by searching for it on flea at level 10 lol

right now

[civic canyon]

ok i thot you meant befor lvl 10

[fading violet]

Or you can use 3rd party website like tarkov-market.com

[bold kernel]

^ ye

[civic canyon]

ok

[fading violet]

They should change it so you can view flea market but cant buy or sell until lv10

So new players will know what to keep

[bold kernel]

why do new people get so pog loot ;-;

[slow linden]

tarkov moment

[pale pulsar]

best loadout to run for me i got 2mil and lvl 10

[bold kernel]

a friend of mine got a violet keycard and an Ultra storage key from the tree of giving at level 8 ;;-;;

but he already managed to blow through the 12 mil and he's just level 15 lmao

[pale pulsar]

best loadout to run for me i got 2mil and lvl 10 for interchange

[rugged yacht]

SKS bp ammo 6b3tm

[signal girder]

ugly helmet, kirasa, whichever rig, op sks with cobra sight + shade, BP ammo

bread and butter

[pale pulsar]

ok thanks

[reef prairie]

any reserve players here?

[fading violet]

Mp153 and ap20 works well too

[signal girder]

can swap kirasa with lvl 4 armoured rig

Yeah, what Eden said, too

[bold kernel]

^ rat rig from ragboi level 2

[pale pulsar]

dont have rag lvl 2

[bold kernel]

oof

[cerulean spruce]

I can't wear a helmet and headphones at the same time

do helmets even matter then? ;__;

[pale pulsar]

ye

alot

[signal girder]

Uley rig will work fine

[bold kernel]

you can depending on the helmet

[slow linden]

yea hi

[bold kernel]

some don't have the space for it

[fading violet]

You are probably wearing a shitty helmet like Kolpak that blocks ears@cerulean spruce

[bold kernel]

@cerulean spruce dude for real now.. go to sherpa hub and get someone to help you

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[bold kernel]

otherwise you won't have a good time at all lol

[fading violet]

Get yourself a ssh68 and ratnik from ragman lv1 and wear that

[reef prairie]

what rooms are worth hitting? i never really played reserve, but i have a bunch of keys and want to give it a try

[civic canyon]

is there a way to buy roubles with dollars?

[slow linden]

here

one sec

[signal girder]

ratnik +10k just for ear protection. Arguable for whether it's worth it

[bold kernel]

marked rooms

are pog

[fading violet]

Ratnik has lower penalties

[signal girder]

not efficiently, unfortunately

[bold kernel]

There are ways

but yeah you'll lose a fair bit

it's basically buying things with dollars and selling for roubles

for example you can buy an mp5sd silencer from pk and sell it to mechanic but that's 50% efficiency

[torn ledge]

Just don't convert dollars to roubles.

[bold kernel]

^

[torn ledge]

You'll need the dollars later, one way or another.

[bold kernel]

you need em

either for mods or quests like Friend from the west part 2

[torn ledge]

Either for quests, hideout upgrades or purchasing from Peacekeeper.

[bold kernel]

I still feel robbed from Friend from the west

800k roubles ;-;

[fading violet]

Thats like 1 bitcoin

When you put things in perspective to btc everything seems cheap this wipe

[civic canyon]

ok

[bold kernel]

didint nikita nerf tetriz trade in for bitcoin to hell

[bold kernel]

can't wait for btc farm, I think ama just take a break from tarkov once I get it and just rack up the roubles so I can get in on the late wipe action

i find tetriz useless now 300k isint even that much compared to almost 1 mil

[bold kernel]

they fucked the tetriz not the btc

btc good

tetriz fucked though

you can still get bitcoin from loot spawns, quests etc

yes

[fading violet]

@bold kernel late wipe action is here already

[bold kernel]

nikita better fix tetriz next wipe

or else im not gonna have anything that i feel safe dying with

[signal girder]

Interchange hatchling orgies are cancer

[bold kernel]

no

[signal girder]

yes

[bold kernel]

no

[signal girder]

yes

[bold kernel]

no

[signal girder]

yes

[bold kernel]

no

[signal girder]

yes

[bold kernel]

no

[fading violet]

you are not supposed to feel safe about dying

[signal girder]

^

[bold kernel]

no

[bold kernel]

yes

NIKITA YOU BETTER FIX TETRIZ

[bold kernel]

;-;

sad

[slow linden]

welcome to hell

[bold kernel]

I am so far from intel center L2

[frosty coral]

i need jager 2 then i have it but its just long

upgrading stash is stupid and a waste of money buy i did it

[neat bison]

Guys, I just got level 13 after missing the first months of this wipe. I wanna get my Bitcoin farm going, but need the levels first. Just found a graphics card, could sell for 1.8 mio... is it worth keeping or better cash in rn?

[bold kernel]

sell

[slow linden]

you down bad for cash?

how much are you at

[neat bison]

I am over 5 mio and no need for cash rn

[slow linden]

keep it then

[bold kernel]

you're far from btc farm

and the price of gpus will drop as more people get the farm

sell it imo

[neat bison]

isnt it like lvl 20 mechanic lvl 2 and go? guess I am missing so much info

[slow linden]

huh

[bold kernel]

just do tasks

[bold kernel]

nope

you need intel center level 2

and boi that is hard

[frosty coral]

u gotta buy a ledx

and upgrade stash

[bold kernel]

yep

hard

probably like 10 mil total to get it

from where am at

[frosty coral]

yh

[neat bison]

stash is maxed

[bold kernel]

eod?

nice

[neat bison]

ye

[frosty coral]

must be nice

[neat bison]

The Gamma is actually the best part

[bold kernel]

same EOD

[frosty coral]

i might upgrade next wipe

[bold kernel]

just upgrade your security, medstation and nutrtion unit to level 3
you need jaeger and mechanic L2

gamma is the best part

[neat bison]

yeah, i am trying to level, but some guys are a little ahead with gear

[bold kernel]

my grizzly surv kit and docs case

also the rapist L3 and skier L2

[frosty coral]

therapist 3 is acc the best

items case is needed

[bold kernel]

the rapist is like the easiest trader to level up

[frosty coral]

yep

[cerulean spruce]

IS ZB-1013 ZB-013?

[frosty coral]

yh

[slow linden]

im sorry

what

[frosty coral]

wait no

zb-13 is customs no?

[slow linden]

yea

[frosty coral]

what is 1013

[cerulean spruce]

yea customs

[bold kernel]

ye I had the rapist L3 before I knew it xd

[frosty coral]

so they are the same

time for reserve scav and die

[neat bison]

oh and btw... what the hell happened to fuel? Its like gone, only on flea for 400k?

[slow linden]

they fixed the spawns

[signal girder]

Just buy from Jaeger 2 or Prapor lvl 2 barter

[bold kernel]

same

[bold kernel]

i just saw i case and im like wait level 3?

yeah exactly lol

so is mechanic

just do all his gunsmith tasks

the icase trade is rape

worty of the rapist

15.7k euros

[somber wadi]

So I finally got my first tetris and mechanic barter is out of stock, do I have to keep an eye on the timer for the trader?

[bold kernel]

no

they run out on first second

[somber wadi]

So you gotta try and get it the moment his clock resets?

[unreal horizon]

it's not worth your time

they're all claimed by bots instantly

[bold kernel]

people who make bots deserve to be put down

[cerulean spruce]

Are keys always there?

or sometimes they don't spawn?

[pine mortar]

depends on the key, most are verylow chance

some are always there like the unknown key

[cerulean spruce]

Am I able to get more valuable rounds this early in the game?

leve l3

[pine mortar]

as in ammo? no

level 10 u get market which lets u buy them very over priced, otherwise youll need traders lv 3+

[fading violet]

Before level 10 just stick with 7.62 PS

Best ammo you can have until flea

[hollow ivy]

bp shreds

[frosty coral]

please fix btc

[hollow ivy]

i poopood on some chads with bp

[frosty coral]

this game is so bad

[hollow ivy]

^^

[fading violet]

You cant get bp before level 10 tho

[hollow ivy]

thats true

but you got a ton if you got the christmas thing

you get like 400+ bullets if you unload the 90 rounders

or 75 rounders i forgot which one

[unreal horizon]

lmao what else is new

[frosty coral]

the 'new' server host that is also bad

[unreal horizon]

heh godaddy servers

[frosty coral]

ive had the worst desync happening for no reason

coming only after the new server host

[unreal horizon]

it is what it is

[pine mortar]

clean up the assist chat of irreverent things please

[bold kernel]

^^

[cerulean spruce]

Are there many AI in this game?

[frosty coral]

u the police?

[cerulean spruce]

like half and half?

[unreal horizon]

nothing we can do to change it so just swing on people ig

[frosty coral]

depends where you go

[pine mortar]

its really hit and miss @cerulean spruce the longer u stay in a raid the more likely u are to see them

[unreal horizon]

as you play more you'll learn where scavs tend to spawn and where they dont

if you're looking for them you can find them but you can avoid them without much difficulty too

[frosty coral]

and if u dont wanna fight aslong as ur not too close and they shoot you can most of the time just run

[unreal horizon]

they'll shout nonsense for a second or 2 to let you run to cover

[frosty coral]

sometimes

if ur unlucky ur just gonna get insta clapped

[unreal horizon]

sometimes they warn you, sometimes you get buckshot head, eyes from 70 meters

[frosty coral]

its just luck of the draw im afraid

now if youll excuse me imma scav reserve and probably die to a chad or gluhar

eod chad sniped me from dome

[silk minnow]

lol

[coral basin]

suggestions on how to get the 3 PMC pistol kills?

[silk minnow]

factory

[slow linden]

factory

[frosty coral]

hide

[bold kernel]

whats this rank?

[pine mortar]

factory is filled with others trying to do the same quest

[coral basin]

@frosty coral lol "hide"

[bold kernel]

guys whats that purple rank

[pine mortar]

someone who has been in the community and helped out alot for like 3+ years @bold kernel

[frosty coral]

yeah just lurk in the shadows

[coral basin]

I've just been getting wrecked in factory. That was my thought but I'm fighting fully geared dudes lol

[bold kernel]

he get a rank free?

[pine mortar]

the way i did it was just bring an shitty pistol with you everywhere and kill the rat hatchlings as u find them @coral basin

[bold kernel]

slm freund

[coral basin]

alright cool, I'll just keep at it ha

[pine mortar]

im sure he had to earn it @bold kernel

[coral basin]

Crappy ammo then?

[pine mortar]

if ur confident in ur aim, five sevens are disgustingly strong @coral basin and have pretty decent ammo too

[bold kernel]

ok

[coral basin]

cool - I'll try

[cerulean spruce]

Why are some guns highlighted in red?

[rugged yacht]

?

show pls

[pine mortar]

the red guns are ones that arnt functional

[rugged yacht]

ah they arent usable

meaning you cant equip or shoot them

[pine mortar]

means they are missing vital components

[rugged yacht]

They are like weapon COMPONENTS

[cerulean spruce]

What is up with fence

I keep on coming back and getting new stuff everytime

[pine mortar]

fence is a global trader, anyone who sells items too him will stay there until cycled

[bold kernel]

sells what people to sell yo him

[cerulean spruce]

I guess I'm just gonna buy the sthitty shotguns until I get some money lol

[serene moon]

What is this white box?

[pine mortar]

probaly an glitch, ive never seen that happen

[bold kernel]

ye

glitch

is it just me or is there a delay with firing the sv-98?? It's not much but I swear there's like a 400ms delay

[cosmic tinsel]

there used to be but its been resolved

[fading violet]

400ms is 4 seconds

[cosmic tinsel]

no lol

[silk minnow]

400ms is .4 seconds

[cosmic tinsel]

its .4 seconds

[silk minnow]

LUL

[bold kernel]

no lol it's .4 seconds

[fading violet]

Oh my bad

[bold kernel]

meh

anyways

[cosmic tinsel]

i still dont use it bc i remember it feeling terrible

and that feeling persists, but ive had it on scavs and it was fine

[bold kernel]

I hope that guy didn't lie, am going on interchange to get my scav kills for Humanitarian Supplies lol

[cosmic tinsel]

jessekazam just did a video talkin it up too

with sv98?

[bold kernel]

outside ultra

[fading violet]

Dont you need shoreline scav kills for humanitarian supplies

[bold kernel]

scav camp, power plant etc

[bold kernel]

guy came in here saying you can do it on any map

and had screenshots

[cosmic tinsel]

hm

[fading violet]

Really now

[cosmic tinsel]

is he not talking about peacekeeping mission

[bold kernel]

one sec lemme reply to his ss so you can see it

[silk minnow]

https://prnt.sc/10tjv9k see you on interchange

[bold kernel]

Kill 10 scavs on shoreline while dressed as a blueberry

[cosmic tinsel]

wacky

i mean try it

i would note that if you just play a long shoreline raid

shoreline spawns a ton of scavs

[bold kernel]

here

[cosmic tinsel]

i did the scav killing in one raid, the scav headshots in one raid

weird

[bold kernel]

shush you're not trash and not poor

[cosmic tinsel]

also why mosins lol

im only an ok shooter. learning to hang out late in raid and mess up scavs was the progamertip that changed that quest up for me

[pure kelp]

how often do ledx spawn in health resort?

[cosmic tinsel]

like, in the whole resort?

[fading violet]

Very often in the good rooms

[pure kelp]

like the chance in everyroom

[cosmic tinsel]

probably 1-2 a raid in whole resort

[broken briar]

what is the best profit for dog tags like do i sell them or do i barter them?

[bold kernel]

so many rooms it's probably a few every raid
For me East 110 is almost a guaranteed spawn if im there soon enuf

[cosmic tinsel]

in any given room its probably like 1%

[pure kelp]

Im trying to do west wing because there seems to be less people over than the tape key room

[fading violet]

Most likely to find ledx in tape room and east 226

[cosmic tinsel]

east 110 = tape key, right?

[pine mortar]

compared to almost anywhere else its probaly the best place to find them

[cosmic tinsel]

i'd guess i see ledx there like, 20% of the time

[bold kernel]

yeah the one looted by hatchlings 3 minutes in lol

[cosmic tinsel]

but i did find one my first 3 raids

[pine mortar]

most full loot runs youll find 1 at the very least

[pure kelp]

what about room 301? I've had pretty good luck with that room

[fading violet]

East or west

[cosmic tinsel]

nobody knows the loot table exactly

[cerulean spruce]

If I invite a random couldn't they just kill me and take my shit?

[pine mortar]

yes

[fading violet]

Yes they can, dont use the ingame lfg

[cosmic tinsel]

1-5% for any given room is probably about right. not insane, but any given room is low probability

[pure kelp]

west

[cosmic tinsel]

and they will

i queue up for factory fight clubs with randoms sometimes

[bold kernel]

I run these keys with a buddy, in 5 raids I found 2 ledxes

[pure kelp]

Thank u good sir

[cosmic tinsel]

my shoreline case - my buddy has 310 and 301

which are the other two we make sure to hit

[bold kernel]

same, what I don't have my buddy does

[pure kelp]

sorry I don't play very often and I'm only like level 17 so I'm just tyring to find more money

[cosmic tinsel]

i dont know why a reserve key is there lol

[bold kernel]

yeah same I have usec stash and factory cause I don't feel like buying another keytool for the 4 customs keys lol

[pure kelp]

would you take a docs case or a key tool?

[bold kernel]

For any beginners: Usec Stash key is a scam

[cosmic tinsel]

i think an issue a lot of new players hit is they realize that with a one item payday, they can fund 20 kits or whatever. you should play the game in the way that is the most fun to me, but i'll tell you that i only challenge the super valuable loot when im feeling geared and decent at PVP

i personally run budget kits and look for opportunistic PVP kills and unlooted areas while doing quests as the bulk of my tarkov career

[bold kernel]

I take a keytool so I can fit a salewa and have an empty slot for a ledx

[fading violet]

I feel like most people in this game are chasing for super high value items like GPU and LEDX

[cosmic tinsel]

we had a bunch of people get addicted to tetriz and you should have seen the wailing and gnashing of teeth when tetriz got nerfed

[fading violet]

I like to hit up less popular places for the less valuable but more plentiful loot

[bold kernel]

cough cough Dora the explorer cough cough

[cosmic tinsel]

wasnt just them

but yeah

if your economy relies on one item

[pure kelp]

just got ledx n ocap thanks guys

[cosmic tinsel]

your very tarkov survival is gonna be risky

[unreal horizon]

Now to be fair 100 btc stock is kinda outrageous, especially after they constricted fuel

[cosmic tinsel]

honestly they should have just removed the barter lol

[unreal horizon]

Probably

[cosmic tinsel]

it would have communicated their intentions better

[slow linden]

fellas

fellas

[pine mortar]

they are just testing various ways to fix the bitcoin issue, this is beta after all

[bold kernel]

I don't understand why btc MUST BE linked to irl btc

[cosmic tinsel]

markets are hard

[slow linden]

tarkov is a social experiment

[cosmic tinsel]

nikita LOVES it

[bold kernel]

sure does

[slow linden]

they're doing this to see how we react

its all a experiment by the russians!!1

[silk minnow]

tetriz are so useless now lol

[pine mortar]

im sure they will bring them back after the feedback received

[unreal horizon]

They still sell for 300k can't complain

[silk minnow]

200k*

nowhere near 300k now

[unreal horizon]

Huh

[silk minnow]

just 3 days ago they were at 400k

[unreal horizon]

Idk I'm in raid rn tarkov market says 280k

[silk minnow]

give me a minute

https://prnt.sc/10tk9zb

[unreal horizon]

Oooooof

That's tough

[silk minnow]

yeah

idk why they nerfed it

people will always find a way to do something super quick

[bold kernel]

hatchet runners

[silk minnow]

i mean

[cerulean spruce]

Is Interchange pretty newbie friendly?

[silk minnow]

90% of hatchet runners just do gpus now

then extract

[unreal horizon]

imo a more long lasting fix would be to just cap bitcoin

[silk minnow]

literally no point to do tetriz

hatchet runners just get gpus then go extract

[cobalt hare]

if you spawn with a pm, and then get cursed, kill a scav who chased you and take their gun and vest, are you still cursed?

[pine mortar]

i think it stays for a little while yes but does disappear eventually @cobalt hare

[cobalt hare]

thx

[bold kernel]

help

I cannot drop my backpack

[silk minnow]

double tap z?

[bold kernel]

tried z double click, didn't work
tried discarding, didn't work
tried switching it from double click to press, didn't work

tried changing it to the End key, no luck

[cosmic tinsel]

sounds like you're bugged

[silk minnow]

hmm weird

[bold kernel]

ye

welp

[cosmic tinsel]

you can maybe find a bush and alt+f4 out

[bold kernel]

meh I just wanted to insurance fraud my gear cause I got a bad spawn and didn't want to lose the sv98

[pine mortar]

nade extract in a weird place (:

[cerulean spruce]

Is customs a good map to just spam as a beginner?

or not any good loot ther?

[bold kernel]

you shouldn't be worring about good loot man

[pine mortar]

very good map to start on for sure yes

[bold kernel]

you barely know the game mechanics

[bold kernel]

usually thought as the best map to start on

[unreal horizon]

It's not an incredible money map but you'll need it for a lot of quests

[bold kernel]

customs is great for beginners

[cerulean spruce]

Yea but I wanna get the big boom boom

[bold kernel]

also use the stash runs

[cerulean spruce]

hmm stash runs?

[bold kernel]

yeah there's this run that hits like 7-8 stashes

little pvp, great for getting loot

learning the movements, sounds and stuff

when to sprint and whatnot

[unreal horizon]

That's true the other people you see along the way will likely be low geared as well

[cerulean spruce]

What if they also plan on doing that run?

[bold kernel]

kill em

[cerulean spruce]

why doesn't everyone just do runs then?

[unreal horizon]

1. There are more profitable routes 2. They're kinda just boring

[bold kernel]

they are very boring indeed

i find stashes really fun

kinda like a lottery

but i guess its just gamestyle preference

i don't pvp a lot so its all opinion

I do stashes just to get money for chad runs

[pine mortar]

big items arnt really on customs, youll find those in reserve/interchange/shoreline

[bold kernel]

yeah but for learning the game

customs

a lot of the early quests are customs

[pine mortar]

customs is alot of small things that make decent value

[cosmic tinsel]

chad a state of mind not a loadout tho 😮

[bold kernel]

and quest items

[cosmic tinsel]

theres big gear and little gear chads

[bold kernel]

^^

[cosmic tinsel]

good chads with airframes are the ones you notice most directly

[bold kernel]

dress like a chad play like a rat

[cosmic tinsel]

but theres chad scavs

[pine mortar]

i know purple, im just answering his request

[serene moon]

How do I heal if I forgot to after a raid?

[pine mortar]

use any type of healing, ai cheese, salewa, med bags

[serene moon]

there's interface like what pops after a raid?

[pine mortar]

yeah thats just a quick healing option with money

once u skip that screen u have to manually heal with items

[small cairn]

Buy a gasan+ultrav violet lamp do the grizzly trade from therapist and ez 4x heals

[unreal horizon]

He won't have that

[bold kernel]

lol humanitarian supplies is broken

got half of the scav kills done on interchange

[coral basin]

this pistol quest... ha

[thorn escarp]

someone tryna fence me a spark plug rq

[cobalt hare]

[7:23 AM] Impulse: selling 2 tetriz + 3 green bats for labs access cards

[unreal horizon]

lmfao

[bold kernel]

that was so easy for me I got it done in 2 raids accidentally
I got myself a nice glock and a rat rig
Rushed the entrance to idea offices
waited for the hatchlings to arrive

[cobalt hare]

reading that somehow reminds me of jita chat

[bold kernel]

loool man tried to get the trade done by buying shit from flea but it didn't work

[coral basin]

I just keep getting killed to dudes with shotty right off the rip. The past 3 runs have been like less than 30 sec lol

[bold kernel]

go prone and chill in a bush

[cobalt hare]

on the plus side, greenbats were like 20k or so some time ago

now sold the 2 i had for 180

[bold kernel]

nice

[coral basin]

Mannnn that may be the way I have to pull this off ><

[bold kernel]

questing is best done by chilling in a bush for 20 mins

[frosty coral]

what does an fp-100 do

[bold kernel]

go eat some yogurt while ur waiting

[bold kernel]

it's an air filter for your hideout, 500k on flea rn

[coral basin]

@bold kernel Bush wooky about to happen. Naded running out of spawn

[bold kernel]

the outside of ultra is so dead lol
I chilled around power station got 6 scav kills without a single person going by

[bold kernel]

what map

[coral basin]

factory was told to go there to try to compete against other pistolers.. But all I'm getting is wrecked lol

[bold kernel]

lmao no

there are no other pistolers now

[frosty coral]

should i keep the fp-100

[serene moon]

How do I know what sights and silencers will fit on my gun?

[coral basin]

naturally lol

[bold kernel]

if it's fir and you don't have the airfilter nah

@coral basin again do what I said

[frosty coral]

it is fir

[bold kernel]

Pistol
rat rig
idea offices
wait for hatchlings

[bold kernel]

sell it, easy 500k

[coral basin]

I like that. I'll get these insured pistols back, maybe. Then do that

[autumn harness]

what is LFG

[serene moon]

looking for group

[autumn harness]

oke thanks

[serene moon]

How do I know what sights and silencers will fit on my gun?

[cosmic tinsel]

linked search the gun or barrel

aks require linked search on gun, most others require linked search on barrel

[cobalt hare]

People just learning how to check their mags and why a blacked out leg is such a huge deal and getting rushed by psychos with m4's.

was reading this

[serene moon]

What is a link search?

linked

[bold kernel]

ehhhh not really
people pick up pistols cause:
A. no one is running a pistol alongside their ar thus:
B. They have an empty weapon slot and
C: It's some easy extra cash

[cobalt hare]

question: why is a blacked out leg a big deal

[bold kernel]

if you get hit in it the bullet damage is done to all other limbs and you're limping over to extract
Can't sprint without taking damage

[serene moon]

How do I do a linked search?

[bold kernel]

get a damn sv-98

[silk minnow]

[cobalt hare]

7n1 can onetap anything class 4 and below in the chest too

[cobalt hare]

if its introduction or planting things in bunkers im up for it

[bold kernel]

Oof I still need to plant things in bunkers and kill 3 scavs without healing

I hate jaeger so much

But l2 would be helpful and he's the only dealer I haven't leveled up

[cobalt hare]

[smoky wing]

Yup

[barren berry]

^golden rule of this game

[smoky wing]

They can only blame themselves

[small cairn]

Also depending on who you play with, if they are the panic type, try to shot a bit to the left of them, if they yell/scream, then u know its ur mate xd

[smoky wing]

@barren berry

https://streamable.com/u2llcl prime example xD

[bold kernel]

Oh I'm talking big dumb dumb scenarios

I was with 2 buddies at dorms, 1 was prone looting one of the guys we killed
I run around for a bit, go back and see another body in a bush
I wanna loot it
No interaction menu

MFW I one tap my looting teammate ;-;

[barren berry]

i remember gear of my m8s, but if they gonna start shooting me - im not gonna hesitate to shoot

[bold kernel]

Sometimes they're just dumb

Like running into your gunfire

[bold kernel]

I learned that one the hard way
I was near D2 power, teammates just killed some raiders and were running around
2 guys turn a corner
I assume they're my teammates but they start shooting
Scream in vc that it's me but it was actually 2 raiders and I died cause I didn't shoot lol

[tropic vapor]

[bold kernel]

[slow linden]

my only regret

was I either died

or they weren't at the height of their value

[barren berry]

imagine shooting friends for money that you will lose in next raid

[slow tangle]

Can raiders bleed out or do they heal themselves?

[slow linden]

idk how I blow 900k in one raid unless im doing meta shit

[hollow pelican]

Anyone down for duos need get a few scav kills for quest dm me

[bold kernel]

My strat is
Scav, quest for a few days
Get to like 2 mil
Blow it all on chad meta kits, have fun

[barren berry]

[karmic mortar]

I have a buddy that's trying to get in the game but since his time in the service he got tinnitus real bad, do you guys have any suggestions to help equalize volume so he doesn't get so thunderclapped when he turns up to hear steps and then someone shoots a gun

[barren berry]

and the will run away if the on low HP

[bold kernel]

i know i only have it because ive had it when i was level 10

[bold kernel]

Tell him to wear Headphones in game

They reduce the sound of the environment and how loud guns are near you but make footsteps louder so you hear them

Comtacs and Sordins are my go to as the Gshh is way too bassy

[bold kernel]

Ask a Sherpa this

It’s their job

just use gshh

its loud as fuck

but you can hear everything

[signal girder]

too bassy
Sordins favourite

[bold kernel]

Why not just turn up system sounds then

No, the gssh is very bad because of the volume
It physically hurts me to use them

you can still hear everything

[bold kernel]

Shhhhh they're bassy in a good way

[signal girder]

lol

[bold kernel]

it hurts i dont use them but if you want to hear then use them

[barren berry]

gssh is bruh since the got very high freq

[bold kernel]

still hear everything

[signal girder]

They've saved my life a lot of times, but it often makes me think my own movements were from someone else

[barren berry]

every headset work on same distance

[bold kernel]

well they are louder

its easier to hear foot steps

unless its raining

dont you fucking dare use them on rain

[barren berry]

sordins got louder steps without increasing wind and other BG stuff

[bold kernel]

There's a good video from Veritas explaining what headphones do and it has a blind comparison so you can choose the one you like best

[karmic mortar]

alright ill tell him to try a few different sets, its the sharp difference in the quiet steps and loud shots that gets him

[bold kernel]

Yep, headphones equalize that

Loud sounds quieter, quiet sounds louder

but gssh its easier to hear footsteps

i prefer gssh

unless its raining

or i have some headphones in stash

I'm a newer player trying to get better at tarkov to play with my friends, anyone got tips or anything?

[slate trench]

What ammo should I be running with sniper rifles? SNB?

[bold kernel]

It's not should. It's what you want specifically

no one knows but you on what you want to do with the sniper

[slate trench]

I wanna 1 tap people to their chest

[bold kernel]

ok

then buy the 4 mil gun

[signal girder]

7N1

[bold kernel]

and then the Lapua Magnum

[slate trench]

SNB seems to take forever for some reason 2-3 shots depending on their armor

[bold kernel]

no

it doesn't

it's 58 pen

[signal girder]

2 torso shots for SNB, 1 torso shot for 7n1

[bold kernel]

you're not hitting your shots

[signal girder]

flesh damage not high enough for snb torso

[bold kernel]

it is

the flesh is higher for SNB

[signal girder]

lemme check ballistics real quick

[bold kernel]

ok

[unreal horizon]

this is correct

[reef prairie]

7n1 for bolt actions, snb for the svd

[signal girder]

7n1 has more flesh damage

[unreal horizon]

SNB deals 75 dmg to 7n1's 86

[bold kernel]

SNB has more

[signal girder]

no

[unreal horizon]

you're looking at the wrong value

[bold kernel]

75 right there

[signal girder]

7n1 has 86 flesh

[bold kernel]

oh

facts

[signal girder]

lmao

[bold kernel]

wrong one

[unreal horizon]

1st column is dmg 2nd is pen

lol

[bold kernel]

lmao

I wanna make people bleed

[bold kernel]

wrong

[signal girder]

so @slate trench , short answer is use 7n1 ammo

[slate trench]

Ok thank you lol

[stone hemlock]

SNB is ok too

[bold kernel]

That's been established already lmao

lol was just reading back

[signal girder]

SNB is still good and abundant

[stone hemlock]

SNB is better if u are poor

[signal girder]

but takes 2 to kill torso

the only real difference

[bold kernel]

anyone wanna kill 5 scavs with bolt action rifles using ironsights from 40m or more

7n1 should not 1 shot thorax

bonus points if you have a tremor

[signal girder]

welp

time to abuse 7n1 svd

[bold kernel]

with armor is makes it less damage

[bold kernel]

... 86 damage
It will oneshot without armor

[signal girder]

even with most armours, it will 1 shot torso

[bold kernel]

This game is so broken

when a limb is blacked

should the damage get evenly destributed?

[calm prism]

yes

[bold kernel]

shouldn't*

[reef prairie]

it does

[bold kernel]

it does

[manic horizon]

^^

[calm prism]

it should be evenly distributed

[reef prairie]

x0.7 for arms, full damage for legs

[bold kernel]

then how tf is 86 able to 1 shot

0.7 arms
x1 legs
x1.5 stomach

[reef prairie]

if the thorax gets blacked you die

[bold kernel]

you mean

[reef prairie]

thorax or head

[bold kernel]

if you get shot or something once it's blacked
