beginners-assistance

[plush quest]

oh right fs

[proven saddle]

yep

[plush quest]

like 200k without pk

[proven saddle]

its worthless without it

[green portal]

oh I have 14k in $ and a lot of money not redeemed in my stash

[proven saddle]

most of the time youll be facing your enemy

[green portal]

yeah see like I feel doing anything other than SSH without a faceshield is really pointless

like you will die to the head

[proven saddle]

yep

the tc800 faceshield you got is pretty damn bad

[green portal]

the faceshield blocks just the eyes or something? lol

[proven saddle]

that one yeah

[green portal]

oh wtf it does lmao

[proven saddle]

there is one that blocks your entire face but its like 200k

at least

[green portal]

mmm

so it's either green helmet or have a faceshield, no really in-between

[proven saddle]

yeah

[green portal]

that's what I'm getting, thanks fam

can use the money from this helmet elsewhere

[proven saddle]

i mean thats just my opinion

[native tartan]

did i miss his head on the second shot?

[proven saddle]

that bucket saved me a couple times tho so dont underestimate it

[green portal]

no I mean it makes sense, I think that if you have a better helmet but no face shield you have pretty much the same odds as with the green helmet

[plush quest]

missed

[proven saddle]

pretty sure you hit his shoulder

[native tartan]

ah i guess i just suck

[plush quest]

wait no you hit him

what ammo did you have?

[native tartan]

m61

[plush quest]

ricochet i guess

[native tartan]

150 damage to flesh

[plush quest]

cause theres blood on the wall

[fresh wraith]

did the hit register.. if you had bad dsync in the instance it could account for that shot not actually hitting. on his end he was behind the wall

[native tartan]

is what i got at the end and like 3 to armor

[proven saddle]

the exact frame you shot

i think you missed

[plush quest]

there is blood on the wall after

that wasnt there before

[proven saddle]

thats why i said shoulder

[native tartan]

alright

[fresh wraith]

then u either hit him in the arm or the thorax bullet could have traveled low

[proven saddle]

is the new pl-15 pistol alright compared to the glock17?

[fresh wraith]

its nice.. pestily did a full review on it vs the fn

[plush quest]

its good

[proven saddle]

rof and iron sights mostly

[proven saddle]

ye i saw he liked it

[serene reef]

can the keytool store keycards?

[proven saddle]

aight so you think pst gzh will do the job

[fresh wraith]

yah he did a pretty extensive on how it hits and aiming with it

personally i would run 7n31 or ap 6.3

[proven saddle]

i need the 3 pistol kills, thats what i meant

[fresh wraith]

if ur hunting pmc's you want some armor pen

[proven saddle]

bruh 7n31 is like 3.5k and im thinking of running in naked

[fresh wraith]

bruh its just fake money lol would u rather kills or money rn?

[proven saddle]

good point

[serene reef]

it can't

[fresh wraith]

and besides u run on mag in ur pocket on in the gun and spares in ur secure container

[barren berry]

The fuck is going on here

[proven saddle]

debating pistols

[barren berry]

[serene reef]

wallet can tho

[proven saddle]

docs case

its the way

[barren berry]

There is only 3 pistols:
5-7
Sr-1mp
G18

[fresh wraith]

docs and sicc case are the only ways to run keys

[barren berry]

Other pistols - trashbin

[fresh wraith]

the pl 15 hits hard

[proven saddle]

i mean it shoots fast

[barren berry]

Ah yes, another "Just load igolniks in it"

[proven saddle]

and its half the price of glock 18

[fresh wraith]

glock 18 filled with rip and 33 or 50 round mags.. shoot legs its unstopable

[proven saddle]

fair

[barren berry]

Legmeta pistols

[proven saddle]

ill give the glock a try

lets see how it does

in terms of armor should i get any?

[fresh wraith]

what map?

[proven saddle]

factory

all i want is 2 more kills

[fresh wraith]

No armor

Shoot legs

[barren berry]

Get 6b13/6b3

Dont listen to guy above load it with AP 6.3 or igolnicks

[serene reef]

i love how the price of nails

went from 25k to 50k

[rose rock]

oh boi

[fresh wraith]

Armor is only gonna protect u against scavs. Most pmc gonna have good ammo

[serene reef]

in a span of 1 fluffing minute

xD

[rose rock]

time to stonks

[proven saddle]

it was always 50k

[proven saddle]

exactly my thought

[serene reef]

bought 3 for 27k~ each

[proven saddle]

its either gen4 altyin or nothing on that map

[barren berry]

And you know, factory is filled with scavs

[serene reef]

40k now

[barren berry]

Gen4

[proven saddle]

i give 0 fucks if i die so long as i get my 2 kills

[fresh wraith]

Hes not hunting scavs tho

[barren berry]

He is going for glass hallway/offices where he can be shot by scavs and players

[fresh wraith]

Personally why waste the money on armor and gear when ur trying to pistol kill

[barren berry]

Last thing you want is being 1 shotted by 8.5 scav in chest

[serene reef]

pistol cheap tho

get a drop on someone and assassinate

👍

[fresh wraith]

Well news flash unless ur wearing 200k plus in armor. That scav is still gonna one tap u

[proven saddle]

not that easy mate

[proven saddle]

head eyes 7mm 12g

[cinder hound]

Imagine going to factory for any other reason than a quest

🤣

[proven saddle]

i am going for a quest tho

[fresh wraith]

I can't count how many times I've been one tapped by a ton scav

[barren berry]

Personally why go naked and die from pistol guy eho is doing same thing when you can Get garbage 40k armor and be as dangerous as normal pmc would be

[cinder hound]

Unless ur trying to pvp i guess

[fresh wraith]

Lol right

[plush quest]

anyone going to factory is going for pvp or a quest

[green portal]

I think Factory is the most fun, it is just like COD which is the better game :^)

[proven saddle]

nah bro best loot in the game all those 1 safe an 2 jackets broooo best map

obv joking

[green portal]

I wear jackets

[cinder hound]

7 jackets

1 dead scav

[plush quest]

wow

[cinder hound]

1 safe

[plush quest]

7 jackets

[barren berry]

Is that a bait or something?

[crisp nest]

its normally 60k lol

[plush quest]

[cinder hound]

Thats all the loot in the map

So strong

[proven saddle]

[cinder hound]

Best loot

[waxen rapids]

Hello, brand new to eft. Just Learned the layout of customs! Looking for a buddy to get to play with/ show me the ropes!

[fresh wraith]

Besides if u kill a pmc on factory just wear there gear lol

[crisp nest]

lol i keep getting nice loot from killing players then dying to extract campers/scavs

[cinder hound]

Man of culture

[proven saddle]

ill try without armor first

if i get tapped by a scav im holding you accountable

[waxen rapids]

Thanks tails

[crisp nest]

@proven saddle maybe a headset

[cinder hound]

I dont call any of the loot found in factory good loot

[barren berry]

Learn to properly check exfild and you gonna become real gamer

[proven saddle]

oh yeah def gettin one

[cinder hound]

Cuz none is found in raid

[barren berry]

[fresh wraith]

When they yell be sure to shot them first

[proven saddle]

cant wait for that 7mm scav

brb

[cinder hound]

I feel like factory is like playing rock paper scissor

[gentle cobalt]

ive never done a factory run yhet

*yet

[cinder hound]

U get the pistolling, the extremely geared chad, and the ks shotgunner

Pistol guy can kill ks shotgun

Ks can kill chad

[gentle cobalt]

I had an aps earlier that I lost on customs to some dude with what I think was a saiga

[cinder hound]

Chad kills pistoling

LOL

[gentle cobalt]

oh yeah I ruined a level 49s day with a kedr on interchange

[crisp nest]

and hatchet runner

i killed a level 46 hatchet runner i wonder who hit him when he was new

must have underlying issues if he hatchet runs as level 46

[crisp nest]

no i cant see him he was running 3 flashlights

[crisp nest]

true hope for a powerbank in cabinets

[serene reef]

okay big question

[crisp nest]

B I G

[serene reef]

does the shooting range deplete ammo

[cinder hound]

Who tf

Hatchet runs factory

[serene reef]

people who jump scavs and actually kill em

[cinder hound]

??

They bum rush u

In factory

[serene reef]

there is a mechanic where if you are close enough the enemy cannot pull out their weapon

...

[cinder hound]

I know that i use that mechanic

But

3 scavs

Pushing in at the same time

🙃

[plush quest]

no

[serene reef]

dont ask me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Ty!

[crisp nest]

there was a bug where .300 blk would be depleted

but i think its fixed

and i don't think you are modding a .300 blk gun when you can't afford the ammo

2k a round for ap i think 🥶

nope 3k even

[cobalt hare]

no

[proven saddle]

bruh

[proven saddle]

mate i wiped a 4 man

shit worked

[fresh wraith]

Lol no armor?

[proven saddle]

i mean i had like 10 hp left to the thorax but hey

[fresh wraith]

Glock shooting legs?

[proven saddle]

yep

[fresh wraith]

See its a great leg meta run forsure

[native tartan]

[native tartan]

[fresh wraith]

Nice pull @proven saddle

[proven saddle]

thanks for the tips

[cobalt hare]

[crisp nest]

quake is cheaper

[fresh wraith]

Anytimw

[velvet mason]

https://clips.twitch.tv/ArbitraryPiliableFriseeSquadGoals-tAtKzKMe318J83qV

not me ^

this is what u new players have to look forward to

[proven saddle]

[graceful nova]

Anyone, Do signal part 1 yet?

Mechanic task?

[high spindle]

[proven saddle]

yeah

[graceful nova]

Was it hard or pretty ez?

[proven saddle]

this is what one of the guys had on them as secondary

[proven saddle]

ez af

you literally just have to go and look at an antenna

[graceful nova]

Dead ass abt to try it with pistol then. Idk shoreline

[proven saddle]

actually 2

[unreal horizon]

this fucking hurts

[fresh wraith]

Lol awesome gun build

[proven saddle]

best one ive seen

[crisp nest]

they call me the sniper

[proven saddle]

the dont call me anything

theyre already dead

[fresh wraith]

I got a better one with an mp5

[proven saddle]

think ive got an even better one

this one i got off someone in the resort

[fresh wraith]

Lol nice!!!

[proven saddle]

you dont wanna see what full auto looks like with this gun

[crisp nest]

he had bs

in that garbage gun

lol

ammo worth more than it

[proven saddle]

he was memeing

[fresh wraith]

Lmao hes not wrong

[proven saddle]

level 51 full gear

except his gun ofc

that is the definition of a picture worth 1000 words

[rose rock]

quick question: is there any big difference between the VSS and VAL besides ergo?

[proven saddle]

nope

same gun

i mean the vss is supposed to be a dmr but essentially theyre the same

[fresh wraith]

Both are great guns with the right ammo

[proven saddle]

i dont like em just cause of the subsonic rounds

they drop like crazy

feels like shooting rocks

or airsoft bbs

[plush quest]

only difference is the skills they level up when using

vss is dmr
val is assault rifles

i think

[proven saddle]

yep

[rose rock]

aito then i did right in selling the val for ez bucks

[fresh wraith]

You will soon realize that you aquire way more gear in this game then u think. Eventually ur stash will be a nightmare of stuff to use

[rose rock]

i know

🥲

[faint lodge]

starting up the tarkov knife fight club again if any lower levels wanna duel it out for some items or gear

[sharp lantern]

i know i always ask this but

how do i get the debut task done

its just to much

i alrdy got the shotguns

[rose rock]

which part? killing or the shotties?

[fresh wraith]

Lol take the pistol grips off ur guns and the mags out and they are a one line item

[sharp lantern]

just need scavs

[sharp lantern]

the killin

i need 2 more scavs

[rose rock]

if you hear russian, look at the direction and hope you shoot first

and dont do like i did and rush corners

and its okay to sit in acorner till 10 minutes are left, players are mostly gone and theres scavs everywhere

[sharp lantern]

ill try that

[unreal horizon]

remember to bring food if you plan on staying real long

don't want to run out of energy

[sharp lantern]

is 800k rub good for a starter?

[unreal horizon]

yup

[sharp lantern]

i dont wanna spend it all on ammor

idk how to spell

dont talk about that

[unreal horizon]

anything above your 500k start is good considering you're not losing money

[sharp lantern]

oh

i spend like 30k rub just to die on the debut task

[unreal horizon]

naturally you'll want it to go up but you're in a good spot

[sharp lantern]

good

[bold kernel]

i dont have the game yet but if i pre order from website i will be able to download and play?

[sharp lantern]

[proven saddle]

oh like a cash card

lol

i thought it was like a code for the game

ye just head on the website and click preorder

[bold kernel]

i dont even know if those are a thing for tarkov lol. never seen one

[proven saddle]

[bold kernel]

yeah that will be the cheapest lmao

[proven saddle]

[bold kernel]

[final seal]

[proven saddle]

[cobalt hare]

@daring drum above

[cobalt hare]

this

[daring drum]

i need help with the jeager quest in getting his message i cant escape with it

[cobalt hare]

😍

i'd help personally but gotta go to bed

[bold kernel]

How big is interchange compared to custom? Im asking for the sake of load time

[proven saddle]

load times are the same pretty much across the board except factory

[bold kernel]

my visa gift cards never work when i try to buy a game

[proven saddle]

error 3032?

[bold kernel]

they work with everything else but this

just says purchase canceled

I cant load reserve or woods too big

[plush quest]

visa gift cards i used worked for tarkov

bought all my upgrades with a visa gift card lol

[proven saddle]

dude what kind of 90s pc do you have

never heard of that

[plush quest]

reserve is small

should be able to load on anything

[bold kernel]

Hmm customs loads fast and fine but it freezes on reseeve, I assumed map size was to blame

[proven saddle]

no way

[bold kernel]

it says the card may not work for 24 hours so i will just wait

[proven saddle]

contact support

theyre pretty quick

[bold kernel]

the tarkov support or visa support?

[proven saddle]

tarkov

[bold kernel]

okay

What I hate about scavs is their jump height is so low they break their legs if they step too hard off a pebble

[proven saddle]

you can level em up pretty quick

[plush quest]

foregrip

[strong aspen]

OP

[bold kernel]

You can level scavs?

[proven saddle]

yeah

[strong aspen]

What’s the point of it tho

[proven saddle]

better scavs?

[plush quest]

my scav has like 15 endurance and my pmc is max

it sucks

[strong aspen]

I thought it was completely random

[bold kernel]

My scavs reset whenever I do a new scav raid

[plush quest]

so much

[proven saddle]

nope

[plush quest]

no

[proven saddle]

i mean they do but not their skills

[red skiff]

anyone want to help me

lol

[fresh wraith]

With?

[plush quest]

with what?

[red skiff]

do a task

[bold kernel]

Can I practice fighting bosses in offline mode? Also it no longer offers me offline mode, why?

[plush quest]

what task

lol

[plush quest]

yes

[red skiff]

manifests for ragman

[proven saddle]

it does and you can

[plush quest]

just hit next instead of ready

[fresh wraith]

This is correct. Your scav has skills as well as ur pmc. Coming soon they are adding scav tasks and also how helpful u are as a scav. More murdering the more scavs will agro on u when u load in

[plush quest]

i can fence the key for you but cant help sorry

[red skiff]

[proven saddle]

he doesnt need any keys

[red skiff]

yeah i was gonna say

[proven saddle]

[red skiff]

[fresh wraith]

Yah key is needed for part 2

[blazing pasture]

What the hell is that

[plush quest]

best gun in game

[proven saddle]

[blazing pasture]

agreed

[proven saddle]

mk18? joke compared to this

[rose rock]

So
-kill scav with bigger backpack
-shove all my stuff there
-leave raid
-realize i left the backpack there

[fresh wraith]

Personally I like the m1a over the sks

[plush quest]

whats the reserve key under queen
that spawns filter absorbers and tank batterys?

[fresh wraith]

Done this once.

[proven saddle]

psp1?

[plush quest]

no

under queen

[proven saddle]

no idea

[fresh wraith]

Also I handed in my pilgrim for a task filled with my pistol grips and kappa items

@plush quest https://gamepedia.cursecdn.com/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/9/9f/Keys_and_doors_v3.png?version=2cb6d8d74e6f3a52b8af30ca93bc86f5

[plush quest]

gn

[fresh wraith]

All ur keys buddy

[plush quest]

thanks

i have every other key i need

but that one

and i couldnt remember

[fresh wraith]

Its all good. I have a ton of great maps for these reasons. So I don't have to memorize this info lol.

[rose rock]

also legit wondering how i can kill 100+ meters away with other guns but with a bolt action i do 35~39m when i gotta do the task

[bold kernel]

I think its time Ive upgraded from my pm pistol. Im going to upgrade to a pm pistol with an 84 round drum.

[rose rock]

the full auto one?

[plush quest]

no

pm pistol with 84 round drum

[rose rock]

always wanted to try that tbqh

[foggy egret]

ive gotten one on woods with a dt mdr

just gotta have a long scope

but ive seen people do it with holos

which is more convenient for close range, but you can also get something like the HAMR for long and close (4x and 1x)

[native thunder]

yo can someone help me find the compass on customs

[proven saddle]

bronze watch?

[proven saddle]

^

[native thunder]

ye I think

except im na idk if that would affect it too much

[proven saddle]

i wasnt going to play, i was going to show you where it is on the map

you need the machinery key

its in a truck on the drivers side on the floor

[native thunder]

aight ty

[proven saddle]

np

[torn kraken]

What's the best way to complete freind from the west?

I've been pistol PMCing, but I just die instantly to people with one shot kill guns

[dense pilot]

Mostly anyone can kill you

No armour a scav can double or triple doink you with ps and your a gonner

[native tartan]

Anyone wanna duo and map aside shoreline and woods

[torn kraken]

Well, wasn't really my question but thank you

[native tartan]

i just played factory

using smgs and shotguns

[torn kraken]

Yeah, tried running so good armor and a shotty

Someone with an SVDS one tapped me with the best ammo

So I gave up on that

I just got 2 kills, but scavs

[plush quest]

the early pmc kill quests suck late wipe

everyones got good gear

[torn kraken]

Yeah :/

[thick topaz]

most high tier ammo won'

will not one-shot you unless it's a headshot

[graceful basin]

7n1 out of a svd will one tap up to class 4

[torn kraken]

All I know is the dude fired 3 shots, sounded like 2 struck the ground, the third dropped me instantly

[thick topaz]

7n1 will not one-tap through even class two

[torn kraken]

And it was not a hs

[plush quest]

snb out of an svd will 2 tap any armour

[thick topaz]

any armor will reduce the damage of bullets, very slightly

that's why people still wear class-4 even though most ammo will penetrate class 4

[graceful basin]

45 pen 86 dam, 7n1 will one tap

[torn kraken]

Also above class 4 is expensive

[thick topaz]

maybe they buffed 7n1? I've never been one-tapped by it unless I was naked

[torn kraken]

Keep in mind limbs have a chance to isntakill you when blacked out

[plush quest]

when an ammo pens it lowers damage

[torn kraken]

Thorax and head are high

I got hit in the thorax

[thick topaz]

limbs won't instakill you when blacked out unless it's head/thorax

[plush quest]

they can

[torn kraken]

See where I said I got hit in the thorax

[plush quest]

small chance

[thick topaz]

but the only way your head/thorax can be blacked out is due to bleeding

[torn kraken]

Also see leg meta

[torn kraken]

Or it got fucking shot

[plush quest]

no

[thick topaz]

really? I thought if your limbs were blacked they just absorbs the incoming damage and distributed it throughout your body

[plush quest]

you die if thorax hits 0 from being shot

[thick topaz]

it's like 1x for arms and 0.7x for legs or something

[bold kernel]

Hey guys new player here wondering how i can fit a sight on my gun

[plush quest]

unless the ammo has exactly 85 damage

[thick topaz]

You need a sight mount for it on top

[torn kraken]

Either way, this is the wrong portion of my question

[plush quest]

bastion rail

[torn kraken]

I found my answer somewhere else

[bold kernel]

Thanks

[torn kraken]

Thanks for focusing on the wrong part

[plush quest]

no problem

[thick topaz]

ay no problem g

[bold kernel]

also i got an ofz im pretty sure they worth a bit right?

[plush quest]

200k

[thick topaz]

yeah, keep it until you can sell on flea

[bold kernel]

Nice

Im only lvl 4 so ill wait

[native tartan]

anyone wanna do some runs

[thick topaz]

I would elaborate more on what you're looking for

[plush quest]

scavs are so balanced

[bold kernel]

Where do i buy bastion?

[thick topaz]

flea market

[plush quest]

flea

[native tartan]

thats true

[bold kernel]

I cant use flea market yet

[thick topaz]

you won't be able to access much until you get flea market, but because you're level 4 just focus on questing.

[plush quest]

scavs 100% cannot shot you through a bush at 1 in the morning

[plush quest]

then you cant buy a bastion

[bold kernel]

Damn

[plush quest]

and bastion isnt good unless you buy the 200k extra armour

[thick topaz]

he's talking about the bastion mount

[plush quest]

oh

i am so dumb

[thick topaz]

the DC for the 5.45 ak

[plush quest]

yes

[bold kernel]

yea

[plush quest]

the one i told him to buy

omg im dumb

[proven saddle]

skier or prapor, cant remember

[thick topaz]

you joined late to wipe, so it's going to be a very rough beginning for you. Focus on quests almost exclusively

[bold kernel]

Ok

I found bastion at skier

[thick topaz]

The number 1 problem for many new players is they want to kit guns and run expensive stuff to increase their chances of survival but with so many rich people this wipe and easy access to top tier shit, you're better off not bothering until you hit vendor level 2 in everything

that way you can build budget stuff for much cheaper than buying everything off the flea

even then, most people are running class 5+ armor and running expensive ammo so you're best off bringing in almost nothing, maybe stuff for scav protection and just focusing on your current tasks

[bold kernel]

ok

Is this a good scav hunting loadout for customs

[graceful basin]

need some bandages

[bold kernel]

Ok

Should i bring splint too last raid i broke my legs and had to limp everywher

[graceful basin]

its a good idea

and you prob dont need food and water for a customs raid

[unkempt grove]

imop i just slap a grizzly in the container

[bold kernel]

Ok

[unkempt grove]

grizzly is also a splint and bandages and medkit around 30k if u have flea market

43kish now

[bold kernel]

oh

isnt t the big medkit 2x2

[unkempt grove]

it has 1800 hp to heal doh

ya

[proven saddle]

its about 45k for a full one

[unkempt grove]

if u want we can game together augustus

[bold kernel]

What server are u

[ocean cradle]

Lf people to play with, im fresh only about 10 raids in

[plush quest]

how can i get recoil down more?

[celest quail]

if anybodies down im pretty new on naw and would like to hit level 10 today so i can unlock the flee im lvl 7 rn and tbh i dont know the extracts very well so playing alone is an kinda an anxiety attack lmao

[summer crag]

looking for some help lv4 trying to learn reserve and lvl up

[silver hornet]

You can get to 73 recoil w/o a suppressor

[proven saddle]

take supp off, moe stock

[plush quest]

alright thanks

[silver hornet]

You need the RRD-4C compensator, an RK-2 foregrip, and the HK E1 stock

[proven saddle]

also 22" barrel

[plush quest]

cant change barrel

[proven saddle]

oh fuck my bad i thought its an rpk

lol

[foggy egret]

what server?

[median bronze]

lvl 5 us central here, just want some grinding advice and some runs

[tough zodiac]

imo forcing yourself to do quests is the best way to learn since you're learning the maps and leveling up

[bold kernel]

are buckshots any good?

Idk if i should jump into a raid with a shotgun i pulled off a scav

[hoary portal]

yeah,especially the 8.5 one

[foggy egret]

yes

[proven saddle]

never EVER use 7mm

[bold kernel]

Ok i have 590a1 mossberg with 8.5 12c

just got game looking for someone to play with

[cerulean spruce]

Is this a thermal?

[proven saddle]

no

valday

pretty good tho

its like 50k

[cerulean spruce]

Is woods pretty safe to scav?

or do people stick around on that map?

[proven saddle]

oh yeah they do

[cerulean spruce]

Interchange do people stick around?

[raven musk]

sometimes

its 50/50

[proven saddle]

only maps where they dont are customs and factory

[strong aspen]

What's a good place to snipe from on Interchange

[bold kernel]

I need a mate willing to help me learn the game, chill stoner, 17

[strong aspen]

I've taken a liking to sniping since I suck at winning actual gunfights in this game

[proven saddle]

outside or inside?

[cunning dragon]

I hope he paid you at least

[rose perch]

Anyone want to help me grab Jager's message on Woods and help me extract? I always get lost -_-

[median bronze]

^same

[cerulean spruce]

Trying to find profitable things to craft is so painful

;__;

[spice dock]

Does being more overweight increase strength xp?

[crisp nest]

no

as long as you are overweight it levels

[proven saddle]

anything past a certain point is the same

[crisp nest]

^^

[proven saddle]

when the weight is yellow

[strong aspen]

Outside

[proven saddle]

id sit in a bush close to the road towards railway

or if youre really ballsy you can climb up one of the towers

[strong aspen]

Gonna assume that the towers are a good vantage point but you're fucked if someone sees you

[proven saddle]

pretty much

you can snipe from inside the power station too, up on the catwalk through the window

did that a couple times

if you spawn there you can kill people coming to turn the power on

[celest quail]

anybody w/ some knowledge wanna help me do some raids? naw lvl7 still learning but somewhat figuring it out i think lol been playing customs mainly w/ some friends

[proven saddle]

i love the power station one but you need a good spawn for it

otherwise chances are power is on and nobody is going to come

[crisp nest]

How good is this vector

I got it off some guy on factory

maybe don't run pst gzh next time man and youll beat my 545 BT

[strong aspen]

Is selling ammo on the flea broken or something

[plush quest]

good

[plush quest]

no

what

[crisp nest]

any quests needed to buy ap 6.3 from pk3?

if not i might rush thru skier then pk's quests

[plush quest]

no

[crisp nest]

wdym

what????

[crisp nest]

is there anything i could make better?

on the build that is

[strong aspen]

They just made me pay a 74000 fee to sell ammo I only got 80000 in return for

[plush quest]

change stock for more ergo i guess

[plush quest]

what ammo

[strong aspen]

It was 28 rounds of 4.6 Subsonic for like 3000 each

I had to pay a fee of 74000

[crisp nest]

well the game values them at a lot less

sell them for cheaper try a few diff prices next time

[strong aspen]

I was just going by average

[crisp nest]

for hard to get items that are overpriced on flea the tax is a lot

[strong aspen]

The cheapest offer was 3000 each

[crisp nest]

like emelya is 16k but tax is 10k

[strong aspen]

So I did the same

[crisp nest]

i know but you can get more by selling cheaper

try like 3k, 2.5k, 2k, 1.5k then try stuff in between the 2 that make you the most profit

to get the most money

[strong aspen]

Gotta do y=mx+b again just to find the best profit

Thanks tarkov

[crisp nest]

nah lol its more of quadratics

so if you find 2 that give a lot then in between will be the most

[strong aspen]

Maybe those math teachers were on to something

[crisp nest]

like here

around the middle of where they intersect x is the lowest

if you flip it it'd be the highest

idk i think tarkov has a quadratic tax

or maybe logarithmic?

[stable widget]

if anyone needs help pm me we can work something out

[crisp nest]

like one of these where it gets higher really quickly

[strong aspen]

Im just gonna agree because I've always sucked at math

[crisp nest]

haha lol

[strong aspen]

I was always more of a history kind of guy in school

[crisp nest]

so basically at the start the tax is just normal

but if you do overpriced the tax is huge

nearly 100% so don't fk up ammo by a 0 or you'll pay like 500k in tax

[strong aspen]

Yeah I learned that lesson 5 minutes ago lol

Thanks for the advise tho

[crisp nest]

factory players are weird

[cosmic tinsel]

we live in the walls and eat cheese

[crisp nest]

didnt even have a ks23 and he had this in his pocket

not FIR so it was his

[cosmic tinsel]

probs hid the gun

real rat strats

[crisp nest]

he died like instantly

[proven saddle]

been there done that

[cosmic tinsel]

o

[crisp nest]

maybe he ks'd some guy cuz there was 2 bodies

[proven saddle]

found it on someone else and didnt take the ks

[crisp nest]

rat probably wanted to snatch and go

then got vectored by the guy i killed

[stable widget]

if anyone needs help pm me we can work something out

[crisp nest]

so hmm i killed a guy in the office who killed a guy who killed a guy who killed a guy

[proven saddle]

i had a ks-23 spree today

[crisp nest]

so thats everyone dead!

[proven saddle]

like a full hour just factory ks

shits fun yo

[crisp nest]

id use ks but no prapor ll3

prapor level 1 gang

[proven saddle]

oof

[crisp nest]

stuck on checking ftw

lol

[proven saddle]

i swear you know your shit better than someone with prapor lv1

[crisp nest]

nah i can't play customs

you wanna know what happened last time

so a scav collats my legs nearly blacks them

[proven saddle]

id help but..

[crisp nest]

then i get hit by 2 mosins

then im hiding from mr vector behind a train while getting looked for by mosin man

then i get hit with 4 grenades

gg

[proven saddle]

customs is a whole 'nother beast

try doing it at night

camp a bush for like 5 mins and then go

[crisp nest]

nvg needed or nah

[proven saddle]

nah

unless its raining

if its raining everythings black

[crisp nest]

u sure i have a pretty dark monitor

[proven saddle]

post fx

[crisp nest]

ah ok ill turn them on just this once

they affect my fps a bit so i leave them off

[proven saddle]

can give you mine if you want

[crisp nest]

settings?

[proven saddle]

i can see pretty well even at night

yeah

[crisp nest]

sure

[plush quest]

i also want to see

[crisp nest]

yeah ill just pin them somewhere for night raids only

[plush quest]

post fx has a button you can turn on and off

[crisp nest]

also can anyone see factory at night without nvg or flashlights

[plush quest]

and it saves the settings

[proven saddle]

i mean i use them on day time raids but

[plush quest]

can you sned them to me too

please

[proven saddle]

ill send em here

[plush quest]

ok

[bold kernel]

can someone help do skiers quest the extronoist?

[crisp nest]

which one is that?

[bold kernel]

first one i believe

[plush quest]

find the unkown key off a scav and grab the docs case

[bold kernel]

you go to the truck on customs

[crisp nest]

oh

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/The_Extortionist

here it marks the areas

[bold kernel]

thanks

[crisp nest]

the truck one is checking btw not extortionist

[bold kernel]

finna update my AMD thing first

[proven saddle]

extortionist is go get shit and extract like most quests at the start

fuck i hate them

[crisp nest]

id do them if they werent on customs

[proven saddle]

obv tweak the sharpening to your liking, thats just how i like it

[crisp nest]

i don't play customs shoreline or inter xD

[proven saddle]

customs i can get but why the other 2

[strong aspen]

Is the ks23 good

[crisp nest]

ill get carried by my friends who rat on inter

[proven saddle]

theyre great

[proven saddle]

puts the fear of god in the most geared players

[crisp nest]

i heard shoreline = pc go boom

[strong aspen]

What makes it so good

[proven saddle]

shrap 10 ammo

[crisp nest]

1 taps legs

[crisp nest]

and 25

[proven saddle]

you can one shot legs if youre close enough

why use 25 when youve got 10

[strong aspen]

Why wouldnt you be able to do that with an mp153 or something

[proven saddle]

cant use that ammo

[strong aspen]

Oh

[proven saddle]

shrap 10 does 550 if you hit all pellets

[strong aspen]

Holy shit

[proven saddle]

yeah, holy shit

also you can load star rounds into it

which are flashbang rounds

[crisp nest]

^^

[strong aspen]

Dont those blind people

yeah

[proven saddle]

thats even scarier

[crisp nest]

shrap 25 can kill too just u have to aim better

[proven saddle]

you get hit by a star round you better pray to god and spray everything you got

[crisp nest]

and as hexgrid doesnt cover stomach u can easily kill stomach with ks if they have hgrid

[proven saddle]

yeah but imagine having to aim

[crisp nest]

the vector gamer i killed be like

he only hit my arm with his pst gzh

[proven saddle]

when you can just aim in the general direction of their legs and win

[crisp nest]

and nicked me once with ap6.3

I feel like i would be bad at vector because in most games i compensate for recoil too much

[proven saddle]

its literally point and click

[crisp nest]

i know

but im used to csgo spray for the ak

[proven saddle]

i played everything from cs to siege to valorant

just gotta get used to it

[crisp nest]

valorant and cs are literally the same

oof i suck at siege

like absolute garbage scav tier

[strong aspen]

Why cant I tie a brick to the barrel of my gun to reduce recoil

[crisp nest]

🤷‍♂️

[strong aspen]

0/10 literally unplayable

[crisp nest]

it'd also give you like -20 ergo

[strong aspen]

Ok so put a balloon on the barrel too

[crisp nest]

but then that increases recoil

[proven saddle]

youre not good at physics are you

im kidding obv

[strong aspen]

brick reduces recoil by 40-ish

[proven saddle]

yo hello where my things at

[strong aspen]

balloon increases it by 10-ish but increases ergo by 20

thats 30 less recoil for no ergo cost

ez

[strong aspen]

they grew legs and ran away

Mine do it sometimes to

You can catch them if you're quick enough

[proven saddle]

damn my bitcoin farm ran away

thats a big yikes

[strong aspen]

They only come back after completing the shooter born in heaven quest 6 times in one raid

[crisp nest]

on all maps

one raid only though ofc

[proven saddle]

at the same time

[strong aspen]

Labs included

[proven saddle]

on 6 different pcs

[proven saddle]

factory would be a bit harder

just a bit

[strong aspen]

Yeah getting rushed by chads at spawn ups the difficulty a bit

Just gotta get lucky

[proven saddle]

also the map isnt long enough but ya know

its literally impossible

[strong aspen]

Yeah the trick is to simply escape tarkov

[proven saddle]

ez

[strong aspen]

and run to a different country

[proven saddle]

go back to america

can find a green card in labs

bit expensive on the flea atm

[strong aspen]

I wonder if it's possible to singlehandedly crash the whole tarkov economy

[proven saddle]

yes

with enough money

clearly you havent played runescape

[strong aspen]

Never

[proven saddle]

lots of market crashes cause of players with loads of money

[strong aspen]

Doesnt that game have monkey nuts

Or something

Idk thats the only reason I know about runescape

Nuts of some sort

[proven saddle]

im not sure what youre talking about

havent played in a while but hey maybe they do

[strong aspen]

Is the pp-19 good

[proven saddle]

not the best

but i like it a lot

get some good ammo in there

a sight maybe a foregrip and youre golden

[strong aspen]

I looted like 160 RIP rounds off of a chad on customs like a week ago

I have not used the ammo yet

Should I steal legs with them or what

[proven saddle]

yoo

load them into a glock18c

33 rounders

woooof

[strong aspen]

Why that gun in specific

[proven saddle]

its like .3 secs to kill or some shit like that assuming you hit all of your shots

[plush quest]

cheap and high rpm

[proven saddle]

1200rpm

i think its the highest in game

[strong aspen]

Is it automatic or am I just left clicking until my finger falls off

[proven saddle]

auto

[strong aspen]

Ill take your entire stock

[plush quest]

1200 rpm semi auto

[proven saddle]

full auto wdym

[strong aspen]

Lol big stick

[plush quest]

no i was making a joke

[proven saddle]

oh

yo imagine

instead of reloading you gotta swap mouse

[strong aspen]

Does that new pistol have a fire rate cap or can I just spam it until the enemy falls

I heard it was good

[proven saddle]

i mean it does but youre not gonna hit the cap

[clever spindle]

How do you use the mounted 1x on the Hamr cause half the time i find a gun with hamr i die cause i cant zoom in or i cant use the 1x. Ive looked it up but most post are from last year

[proven saddle]

ctrl+right click

[strong aspen]

^

[clever spindle]

That doesnt work for me sadly idk why

[proven saddle]

check controls then

[strong aspen]

Check your keybinds

Whatever your "Switch Scopes" button is

[clever spindle]

by default thats what my scope change is but it doenst work with hamr when its mounted scope. It works perfectly for like 1x/4x

[strong aspen]

Try different solutions in firing range and see what works

[proven saddle]

thats alt+right click

ctrl changes between sights

[clever spindle]

ah

[proven saddle]

alt changes mode

[clever spindle]

i see ill try it when i get the chance

ty

[proven saddle]

np

[strong aspen]

I wanna try leg meta'ing someone but Im scared Im gonna forget to aim for the legs lol

I suck at PvP itself so I absolutely do not trust myself to win gunfights

[proven saddle]

risk it for the biscuit man

no way to get better other than practice

[plush quest]

is intel still worth 400k?

[clever spindle]

I know that feeling i run in with basically aim for everything thats not amr, proceeds to run to a fight and shoot teir amr

I think intels hovering around 380 last i checked

[plush quest]

nice

[fresh wraith]

320ish

[plush quest]

i died with it

used it on scav case

[fresh wraith]

yup.. i dont sell them always use them in scav cases

[strong aspen]

Okay I admit

I may not be the brightest

I have no idea why I thought it'd be a good idea to drink condensed milk lol

[plush quest]

lol

[strong aspen]

My thirst was at 30 and I said "Hmm this might be good"
