[smoky wing]

For me for example i try new strats that piss people off in tarkov

[trim aspen]

Prices are dropping everywhere

[smoky wing]

Cuz i have no other reason to play tarkov

[proven saddle]

because bitcoin is dropping

[smoky wing]

Right now

[cobalt hare]

are you actually supposed to snipe with VSS?

that bullet falloff

[smoky wing]

@cobalt hare yes and no

[bold kernel]

If you are low on money or just want fat easy loot without trying, extract camping is the way to go.

[trim aspen]

Makes sense

[smoky wing]

@cobalt hare if u zero it correctly yeah

Vss is a crazy good sniper with low recoil and chad bullets

But takes a lot of skill

[trim aspen]

Is bitcoin price adjusted daily or was it the update?

[cobalt hare]

i feel like im better off with a suppressed VPO215

[mint seal]

i need a golden rooster for kappa, anyone know where i can find one?

[proven saddle]

im pretty sure its adjusted real time

[craggy sapphire]

i KILLED A FOUREMAN

[trim aspen]

Aight thanks buddy

[proven saddle]

you get it from gunsmith

dont remember which one

[mint seal]

i think i sold it by accident

[proven saddle]

oof

[smoky wing]

Rip

[tawdry lily]

Labs red keycard or managers office

[mint seal]

yea big oofs

[limber notch]

These drops are trash

[smoky wing]

People watching twitch for drops

Bruv i ve been watching 10h and i got intel bruv stonks

[mint seal]

labs has best spawn rate for rooster?

[limber notch]

Asia had hex and bitcoin

[tawdry lily]

Found a lot on there

[trim aspen]

I usually found it when I'm not looking for it

[mint seal]

what about scav case? i dont remember if it can drop from there

[trim aspen]

Speaking about scav case, is it worth it? I'm saving to construct it

[cobalt hare]

imagine all that crap you have lying around in your backpacks and rigs

and now it's all in one place

that's the jankbox

oh nvm you mean the moonshine thing

[paper prawn]

drops suck rn

[trim aspen]

[smoky wing]

@trim aspen short anwser

Hell no

With scav case its like asking

"Is it worth it to go to the casino"

[trim aspen]

ah, it's gacha

[cobalt hare]

if you have money to throw away..

[smoky wing]

I personally

Spend 20 mln on intel

And moonshine

Got around 21M back

And that was about 3 weeks worth of running them

So yeah its not worth it

Sure u may get jackpot and win 90 mln

But as in casino, casino always wins

[trim aspen]

Thanks for sharing this to me, I'll just save for something else

[smoky wing]

If i were you

I would invest in workbench

And PK quest line

Workbench has an amazing craft called green powder

[trim aspen]

Yeah I can't wait til I unlock the nade

Would u craft it to red powder tho?

Then to ammo?

[smoky wing]

Depends i usually dont

Btw why dont we have this bot ?

https://imgur.com/KZACzru

Would help new players a lot

[trim aspen]

pog

[unreal horizon]

that's sick

[smoky wing]

I added it

On my server

And it works like a charm

Sometimes it gets confused about ammo

Other than that it's dope af

U can screenshot your entire backpack

And get flea market price in 5s

[stark flame]

Anybody carried me if u can dm me

[vast oriole]

man im a returning player and even with flea this game is ruthless

went from pistol paca on factory and got like 5 kills and died to a player scav

[smoky wing]

Unlucky

5 kills on scavs?

[vast oriole]

yeah 3 of em were players, knew it due to their behavior and double gunning

this dude had a weird ass ak74-u, it had 3 giant mags filled with bp and i rolled with it

vile gun but it was fun

[smoky wing]

Me after a paycheck spending money on stupid shit

Absolute Unit of a Scav

[vast oriole]

my name is yellow too now, is that normal?

[smoky wing]

Ye

[little coral]

Hello i have just gotten level 10 and am wondering what armour and helmets are good for protection that are low budget?

And if this is a good mp5 build

[unreal horizon]

6b3tm rig is great, I don't run helmets but 2 bleach for ratnik is a good barter

[strong barn]

I see nothing wrong with it per se
you could make it have less recoil if you made it the MP5SD variant with the different upper but for what you have there its good

the ammo needs to go though; pso gsh is bad at leg meta and bad at armor pen--it gotta go

[little coral]

Sorry the pso gsh is just in the chamber, i have pst gzh in the mags

thanks though!

[unreal horizon]

perfect

it doesnt have great pen but if you aim around head its good

[little coral]

Yeah i wanted to go for low recoil so it gradually goes up towards their head

resulting in a tasty headshot

[silver hornet]

bots break this server lol

[smoky wing]

@silver hornet true

Yo tomorrow

After my work

We playing

I kill

U loot

[little coral]

Also in the shooting range do you lose the ammo you shoot, probably a dumb question but im curious

[proven saddle]

you dont

[smoky wing]

U dont

[barren berry]

the fuck is that

[little coral]

Okay thank you

[opal summit]

whats the best way to progress and get better

[proven saddle]

[silver hornet]

@barren berry 👀

[proven saddle]

[smoky wing]

@barren berry bot

[barren berry]

play scavs, learn 1 map that will become your main map and farm money

[smoky wing]

U take a screenshot

Bot detects items

[hot steeple]

hey can someone please give me a customs key for the mission "delivery from the past" been looking for so long but i cant find it

[barren berry]

after farming money, get gear

[smoky wing]

And gives u flea and trader value

Of all of them

[barren berry]

i know about it

[little coral]

They are very common on scavs

[barren berry]

i mean name of it

[little coral]

Try to go into scav raids and kill other scavs

[smoky wing]

Tarkov assister

Its literally in the gif

[hot steeple]

i have killed around 20 scavs and not 1 has given me it...

i will give you something if anyone can

[little coral]

Keep searching, i've gotten about 3 from them

They are quite common but just keep looking

[hot steeple]

katze could you potentially buy it off the flea for me

[little coral]

Farm the scav raids

I have one i don't need

[barren berry]

[little coral]

and I don't really know or have traded before

[barren berry]

Add farm gang

[hot steeple]

[smoky wing]

@barren berry @silver hornet is mine now

[little coral]

If you add me i can try give you it tomorrow

[smoky wing]

I got his ass

[little coral]

it is currently 0:25 for me

[hot steeple]

same

[twilit lily]

so just an AI question. Do Scavs always kick in doors?

[barren berry]

then you both going to 🇸🇾 without me @silver hornet @smoky wing

[barren berry]

only when aggro

[little coral]

i will add you

[smoky wing]

@barren berry would u like to be recruited?

[barren berry]

nah

[smoky wing]

We are looking for one

Scav translator

[twilit lily]

cuz I've now had 3 AI scavs break a door open even tho i haven't shot them at all. Fucker kicked it in and then ate food

[smoky wing]

U would be

A perfect fit

8h a day 5 days a week

Pay around 1 btc in game per day

Maybe pack of sprats if the job is well done

[barren berry]

bruh

[smoky wing]

Aight aight

2 packs of sprats

[barren berry]

why do you even need scav translator

[smoky wing]

Gathering info

On the enemy

We have one russian guy translating slresdy

Already

100+ lvl coms

[barren berry]

isnt it better to just remember how they sounds

[smoky wing]

Scavs actually give a good info

About people they see or shoot

Like when they scream

[barren berry]

yes, but filthy 'Mericans cant use this info

[smoky wing]

"Fuck this bear up"

[cosmic tinsel]

well if its a russian then im out

[smoky wing]

I'm Polish so i understand around 20 or smth %

[barren berry]

[smoky wing]

Of what they are saying

[cosmic tinsel]

how do i play this better, panman

[smoky wing]

U dont

He def

[cosmic tinsel]

XD

[smoky wing]

Ded

[unreal horizon]

[smoky wing]

"Oh shit bro i died just hide my stuff please"
"Oh u died to a scav? No worries bro that was only 3 mln roubles"

[barren berry]

get mpx with 7 lights

[smoky wing]

@barren berry do you think the sgmaska or whatever the name is

Is necessary to play on arabic servers?

[bold kernel]

Can we get a couple more Beginners assistance channels going???

[barren berry]

maska-1sh

nah

[cosmic tinsel]

we're out of voice slots as i understand it

[barren berry]

actually, we cant

[cosmic tinsel]

you can definitely use the non-beginners channels, just let people know you're learning and let them decide if they want to play or not

[smoky wing]

@cosmic tinsel u good at the game

[barren berry]

im currently fishing in barotrauma while waiting for questions from beginners

your free trial of life has expired

[cosmic tinsel]

undefeated while shooting someone in the back i tell you

[smoky wing]

[cosmic tinsel]

i do constantly

[barren berry]

[smoky wing]

Wanna be their senpai?

[cosmic tinsel]

[smoky wing]

To suck you dry

From your lifeforce

[bold kernel]

[smoky wing]

@bold kernel meownir

[barren berry]

[cosmic tinsel]

[smoky wing]

Without randomness of Tk

[barren berry]

undercover beginners group

[smoky wing]

Like here in LFG

Yeah something like that

[barren berry]

[bold kernel]

when HyperRat is rank 1

[smoky wing]

Cinnatus is our gun savant

[cosmic tinsel]

theres a ton of pirate beginner servers, this is just my main hangout

[smoky wing]

He is making builds lol

[cosmic tinsel]

if you're actually asking i'll join yours too but i might be mostly idle

[smoky wing]

"47 recoil u say? I can make it lower"
@silver hornet

Lol

[barren berry]

[smoky wing]

I mean if u want to join feel free , there are no requirements

Except +18

And no racism bla bla bla

[cosmic tinsel]

that sounds great

[barren berry]

[cosmic tinsel]

[smoky wing]

Wtf

How

[quaint flicker]

how about their neechan 😛

[smoky wing]

The scope gives -% recoil?

[quaint flicker]

even if it gives -% recoil it gives -ability to see

[sullen cairn]

@quaint flicker use canted I guess lol

[barren berry]

portable emergency blinding device

PEBD

[quaint flicker]

if you are too poor to buy flashbangs every raid so you made a reuseable one

[pure frost]

anyone here good at storage managment

[quaint flicker]

depending on how "good" you need

[pure frost]

wanna take a look and try help

[smoky wing]

Best scope

[quaint flicker]

i can try if its just that

[smoky wing]

You may not like it

But this is what peak performance looks like

[bold kernel]

flashlight heaven

[crisp nest]

no pls not usp scope

id rather ironsight

[smoky wing]

@crisp nest shh

I got used to it

Cuz when u play a game called Squad

And u end up in Insurgents

Every scope they have is USP xD

[crisp nest]

lol

yeah is squad good?

was thinking of getting it but i dunno about how long i canreally play it

TIME TO RAT

[cosmic tinsel]

its pretty rad. you might wanna check out insurgency too

squad is more of a job, insurgency just good realistic shooter

[keen forum]

My favorites are Tarkov, Squad, Insurgency, Post Scriptum and Hunt Showdown

[smoky wing]

I have both

Squad is much better when u going for immersion

[cosmic tinsel]

forgot to mention hunt

[smoky wing]

Insurgency is pretty much "realistic cod"

Aka not many people take the game seriously

Only about 10% talk

And its run and gun then respawn

While Squad is more of a realistic battle simulation

Most server have rules like
+18
Needs mic
Listen to commander

Etc.

[cosmic tinsel]

45 minutes driving logi

[smoky wing]

I prefer Squad cuz u value your life more

Also it has much more teamwork

In insurgency everyone wants to pick few op classes

[keen forum]

I love doing Heli evacs

[smoky wing]

Then run naked with fully modded FAL

And tap everyone

[keen forum]

the rush of adrenaline when you manage to fly out under fire with no 10% casualties

🔥

[barren berry]

laughs in helicopter blade grifering

[smoky wing]

Also in Squad most engagements are at distance +30 or even +100meters

Insurgency depends on the map

[barren berry]

R - Realistic

[smoky wing]

Is around 5 to 10M

[keen forum]

i usually do door to door with the squad

while another is setting up FOB and logi runs

[smoky wing]

But tbh best of them all

[sullen cairn]

I hate the parts where you have to engage enemies 100m+ with iron sights 😪

[smoky wing]

Is Post Scriptum

[sterile snow]

logi runs?

[neon sonnet]

prapor has punisher quests wich lead to 3x3 secure container right?

[smoky wing]

But not very popular

[sullen cairn]

logi is a resource truck to build bases with

[smoky wing]

@neon sonnet 3x2

[neon sonnet]

prapor right tho

[sterile snow]

Ah I see. thanks, wasn't sure if it was code for logistics or some crap. I'm a sucker for tactics.

[smoky wing]

Ye

https://youtu.be/2zqEnfkcbpA

[neon sonnet]

ty

[smoky wing]

Listen to this audio

And tell me its not amazing

Sound design

[neon sonnet]

rip cpu

[sullen cairn]

@sterile snow no prob ahah. yeah if your logi trucks get destroyed you are kinda screwed

[crisp nest]

yeah that's what i saw from a few vids i watched

[neon sonnet]

sounds way better then most games tho

[smoky wing]

Video is 2 year old

[silver hornet]

4x2 not 3x2

[smoky wing]

When PS was in early beta

[silver hornet]

@smoky wing YOU ARE FEEDING NEWBIES MISINFO

[smoky wing]

@silver hornet I missclicked CHILL

[crisp nest]

🤣

i had a lobby where everyone had modded smgs but all ran paca

wtf

[smoky wing]

Quest maybe

If they had ratnik helmets

Then its quest for sure

[crisp nest]

1 had ratnik so ok

yup i think so then

i killed a guy who killed a guy who had the dogtag of a guy who dc'ed or killed himself

[neon sonnet]

oh damm

[crisp nest]

Luger CCI any good?

[plush quest]

pretty sure its a leg meta round

[crisp nest]

weird kid had it in an stm-9 lol

[smoky wing]

@plush quest its in between

Shit and piss

Its neither sadly

Damage too low to be leg meta

Pen too low to be pen meta

Quake Maker

Is better in everybway

Way

[strong barn]

oof

[sterile snow]

Stupid question, but whats the best way to join a party?

just hop into a lobby and go 'sup?'

...I'm all of level 6 and solos are fukken terrifying.

[nimble gale]

im lvl 9 you are correct

[sullen cairn]

no do not do that ever

[nimble gale]

i usually die

[sullen cairn]

it's a secret code that if you join a lobby in game they will kill you instantly

go into a LFG channel in here, not in game

[sterile snow]

I meant one of the lfg channels

[sullen cairn]

oh lmao sorry

[sterile snow]

I don't accept invites from people I don't know lol

too wary of getting blapped for no reason.

Just too polite to barge into a LFG room and go "Yo! Can this scrub follow along?"

[sullen cairn]

you can go to #pvp-lfg and advertise what kind of partners you are looking for

and ask for people to dm you

[sterile snow]

Thanks, I'm still trying to navigate this place, it's huge n awesome.

[sullen cairn]

like you can literally ask exactly that, you can say "can someone bring me along?" and for sure people will bring you

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah just let people know you're new and mute em if they get toxic

also dont loot other peoples kills unless it's agreed on

[sterile snow]

I've played off n on for the last two years, just never seriously until now. I've got the basics, the tactics, it's just learning by playing now.

And looting your bro's kills is a nono

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, just keep banging against it

when im sherpaing i let the lowbies loot my kills

and i think thats reasonably common, but you never know

[sterile snow]

naw, it needs to be said lol. Bud we brought with us the other day would rush the kills for loot and usually fuck us up

[final rapids]

If one person opens a room with a key is it fucked up to get in without asking

It hit me so i stayed out is it just general or just for rooms with limited entries on the key

[unreal horizon]

idk

if it's marked person with key gets 1st pick

that's what i normally do

[cosmic tinsel]

it's polite to ask

again, i run around cracking doors for lowbies

[final rapids]

Much love meevo

[cosmic tinsel]

but some people may get cross, as its costing em money

[final rapids]

Yep thats reasonable

[ember pendant]

Depends on the person, but typically you wouldn't have access to it without them so they get dibs as a unsaid rule.

[cosmic tinsel]

^

[plush quest]

you can go in just dont steal the shit inside

unless they say

[ember pendant]

I personally would say I want x in the room if it spawned and just let them at it without checking it though.

An example would be a particular scope in kiba or a ledx in ultra.

[prime solstice]

if someone uses the key before you dont push past to loot before them that cringe af

[ember pendant]

Normally higher their level, the less fucks they give though

[cosmic tinsel]

big time

[prime solstice]

agreed

[ember pendant]

They paid off the key 10x over in their 50s.

[wise raptor]

im a lvl 25 and need help learning reserve. I have no clue what im doing on that map

[ember pendant]

Raider farming is pretty popular if you don't have keys.

[wise raptor]

yeah but idk where or how to get to places on the map

[ember pendant]

They typically spawn around knight buildings, k buildings, and train.

Scaving is a good start. Just try to make your way to the bunker areas and look for raiders. Those are pretty hard to confuse.

[lament scroll]

is it worth running a gzhel armor with 50.2 hp

[ember pendant]

Over most c4 armors, yea. It'll probably only soak 2-3 shots though.

[lament scroll]

ok ty bro

[ember pendant]

Just know if you win a fight you likely need to swap armors.

[lament scroll]

alright

thank you guys

[ember pendant]

I think around 40 overall it isn't worth bringing into a raid personally. Opinions differ there.

[lament scroll]

ok

[final rapids]

Should i just be a rat and camp customs droms like everyone else

[ember pendant]

Depends on what your goals are.

[final rapids]

Dont have one really

[ember pendant]

Always go into a raid with a goal and you'll do better. Examples would be: PVP, Make money, do tasks, meme.

[main grail]

camping dorms is just asking to get naded to ur stash screen :D

[final rapids]

So be it

Its called joining the dark side

Been killed plenty of times by some randoms as soon as i touch dorms room

[grim night]

being a pussy > its called joining the dark side

[unreal horizon]

why camp dorms tho

[final rapids]

I mean being a pussy and gaining mad shit?

Sign me in

[ember pendant]

Yea, I wouldn't personally do it, but I mean its a tactic for some kills or if you want someone to unlock marked then maybe.

[unreal horizon]

by the time you're waiting for people in dorms you could loot and be out

[ember pendant]

I feel like you would get more kills chasing shots though.

Dorms sometimes is just dead. Kinda boring to camp if everyone went to gas or expansion area.

[final rapids]

Holy i didnt think about camping marked

Thats just mean lmao im not that immoral

😳

[ember pendant]

People sit in that bathroom across the hall or outside on the balcony prone all the time.

The second they hear you unlock / open the door they spray into the room.

[final rapids]

Jesus christ

So its common knowledge to check that bathroom uh

Good to know thanks

[ember pendant]

I always do if I don't have the closest spawn.

[cobalt hare]

every aqua/sam vid involving the marked room always has them check it first

[final rapids]

Oh

[bold kernel]

is woods bigger now?

[ember pendant]

They did an expansion on it, yea.

About 2x the size.

[modest tulip]

did they nerf bitcoin price?

[plush quest]

yes

by 15%

[modest tulip]

damn

so is 600k the new 800k?

[ember pendant]

Circled in red is the expansion. Old map is towards the south and left the same.

[modest tulip]

damn i never knew that the map used to be that small what was the player count then

[prime solstice]

that was only last wipe pal i personally preferred it that way

pvp was much more consistent

[ember pendant]

8-14 players. Same amount.

[sterile junco]

what 7.62 ammo should i use

[ember pendant]

BP > PS

Don't bother with the rest.

[prime solstice]

ps is fine if you are a lower level

[sterile junco]

ok thx

[modest tulip]

bp is best ps is really good if youre on a budget

[ember pendant]

Assuming we are talking 7.62x39 and not 7.62x51.

[modest tulip]

ive been running ps ammo like all day and have killed multiple chads near dorms and resort

[sterile junco]

now im confused

best ammo for akm

[prime solstice]

The best is BP

[ember pendant]

Thats 7.62x39. BP then PS.

[sterile junco]

okthank you

[prime solstice]

or AP if you are loaded

but just use bp

[ember pendant]

Oh they added a new ammo?

[modest tulip]

bp, but im low on the money and have been running ps ammo all day so what im trying to say is dont go broke trying to run bp @sterile junco

[prime solstice]

yeah its strong as fuck but very pricy

[ember pendant]

Well hell yea. Thanks for the heads up Bobby.

[sterile junco]

i have 400k rn i lost all my shit that i started with and now im gonna load up and reck some noobs

[prime solstice]

@ember pendant Class 6 pen but m61 is cheaper and better

[ember pendant]

Yea, I looked it up. Seems pretty legit.

[bold kernel]

any idea where this place is im completely lost

[ember pendant]

Enough flesh to two shot the thorax unlike igolnik.

[bold kernel]

5 m995s arent enough to kill someone in the thorax / head

[modest tulip]

just run ps, bp is like 150k for 90 rounds @sterile junco

[ember pendant]

Take a screenshot.

[bold kernel]

was sending

[prime solstice]

woods? @bold kernel

[modest tulip]

yes thats woods

[bold kernel]

it has like a truck with turrents in the road next to that building

yeah woods

[sterile junco]

yeah il go ps

no thats customs

[prime solstice]

@sterile junco no stress in using ps it will go through most helms and will shred scavs

[sterile junco]

wait thats woods

[bold kernel]

i disconnected hold on lol

[ember pendant]

I'm not the most familar with the new expansion since I only played a month into this wipe but you are 100% in the new area. I'd assume you are on the right hand side of the map.

If you give me a little bit more to work with I'd probably be able to assist.

[bold kernel]

im thinking im in the sawmill

since i spanwed next to a river

yep i see it now

old sawmill

has a hand drill in it lol

[ember pendant]

Pretty sure your south of Bridge extract but I'm not 100% on the screenshot.

[sterile junco]

weird says 7.62x39 PS is not compatible

[ember pendant]

What mag are you using Limax?

Imma guess you got a 5.45 mag

[sterile junco]

ak55

[prime solstice]

you might have that .366 ak pal

[sterile junco]

how do i check

[prime solstice]

whats the gun called

[sterile junco]

crap 366tkm

[prime solstice]

Yeah best ammo for that is .366 ap

but its not great

[sterile junco]

god this game is gonna take 10 years to learn

[prime solstice]

HAHAHA

[ember pendant]

Yea, typically I'd stick away from .366.

[prime solstice]

you got this pal no stress

[ember pendant]

Yea, it'll click eventually. Don't sweat the small stuff.

[sterile junco]

to late i invested to much into this gun lmao

[prime solstice]

hahaha

if you already bought BP rounds hold onto them they will come in handy later

[sterile junco]

i bought 90 ps

[prime solstice]

ps are also good they will go into an sks or an akm

and a couple other ak variants but i wont confuse you any further

[sterile junco]

yeah plz dont i havnt been this confused since 3rd grade math

it was a tough year

[prime solstice]

hahahaha

[cerulean spruce]

Is there a negative to only doing the high xp quests from a dealer?

[prime solstice]

@cerulean spruce not really any negatives to doing tasks for dealers apart from the occasional trader rep negative. you want to do all the tasks you feel capable because the xp and sometimes the stuff you get will help you a tonne

tasks will also unlock the ability to buy better gear from them which is key to slaying the juicy gamers

[cerulean spruce]

Just these 2 therapist quests don't do anything good in the long run other than giving me a meds case

unlocking army bandages and morphine injectors is useless since they are a lot cheaper than on the flea market ;__;

[prime solstice]

save some space by using the meds case and anything you get as a task reward will be found in raid so it can go on flea

[dreamy apex]

anyone wanna run some raids

[ember pendant]

Or just sell the med case for $$$. That's a pretty healthy chunk.

[lilac temple]

Not really a beginner question but anyone got any tips for fireklean gunlube i've checked most of the static spawns and I've looted atleast 80-100 technical supply crates while playing customs with no luck on finding it also I've looted every duffle bag I've seen

[prime solstice]

Honestly pal if you REALLY need it, sthurman stash or in the middle of labs in that crane glass room thingy

[cerulean spruce]

All that work for a 400k meds case when it takes only a couple of scav runs to find a GPU

[lilac temple]

@prime solstice ran labs atleast 20 times checking the mechanical arm about every time except 2 raids

and checked shrutman stash around 10 times

[ember pendant]

Yea, robotic arm room is the best place IMO.

[sly wolf]

why is it so hard to find an extraction point

i always die before i can find one

[ember pendant]

Sucks you are unlucky

[prime solstice]

Honestly pal if its your last kappa item it just wont spawn

god speed HAHAHA

[lilac temple]

lmfao yeah

it fucking sucks

[prime solstice]

mate lemme send you a clip

[ember pendant]

Yup, you know where to find it, just gotta keep grinding

[prime solstice]

friend of mine needed that or the gun lube i cant remember, he found it in labs after about a week and half and this happens

dm'd cus idk what rules are on links

[ember pendant]

DM'd the wrong dude Bobby 😄

Feel free to post them.

[prime solstice]

sent it to you too so you dont feel left out pal <3

[ember pendant]

As long as its on topic 😄

[lilac temple]

nah wtf

who does that

[prime solstice]

HAHAHAHA

[lilac temple]

ive seen too many of those clips

how do people not learn

[prime solstice]

pal he got absolutely bullied for weeks

[sterile junco]

how would i know if a suprusor will fit on the gun

[prime solstice]

usually read the name of the suppressor and the gun and see if the cal matches, 5.56 or 7.62 or whatever

[sterile junco]

ok thank you you guys are life savers faster than google

[bold kernel]

hehe

[final rapids]

Found 4 red gun powders and internet crashed infront of scavs 🙁

[wise whale]

should i keep tags or sell

or keep for mpx barter?

[stone halo]

@wise whale not worth for mpx barter

You can trade in 150 (lvl 15 and up) tags to therapist for an items case. Id save up for those

[ember pendant]

Typically selling them is better unless you have the exact level tags you need.

You net more money at least.

[crisp nest]

depending on level

if they are at least 40, id sell

[crisp nest]

level 17 and up im pretty sure unless they changed it

[stone halo]

@crisp nest 15

[ember pendant]

Wiki says 17. Time to message them for an update.

[stone halo]

I keep mine. But i suggest getting a dogtag case or two if you want to do that

[crisp nest]

i just checked

i saw 17 in game too

[ember pendant]

ah nvm.

[stone halo]

@crisp nest ah they mustve just changed it during the wipe then

[ember pendant]

Yea, they changed it during the wipe. Looks like the 3/1 update.

[stone halo]

Guess im not picking up 15 and 16 tags

[crisp nest]

eh cant you do gppnvg trade

or is that 25 and up

[ember pendant]

25 +

[somber portal]

was not changed during a wipe 🙂

[ember pendant]

RSASS one is probably worth it if the price for it is sky high still

At least it was at the start of the wipe.

[ember pendant]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Dogtag?diff=159358&oldid=155873

Wiki was updated midway through the wipe if you view the change logs.

[sullen cairn]

it's expensive early wipe because of gunsmith

[somber portal]

I misunderstood, I thought you meant at the beginning (while the game was being wiped)

[barren berry]

@ember pendant greetings king

[ember pendant]

Yo Panman.

[barren berry]

im currently not playing tarkov cause i hate solo's and i dont have m8s either

[ember pendant]

Did you run them all off?

[sterile junco]

when you guys started where you able to extract at all

i can get kills and everything but i keep dying to some random cross map headshot snipe

[cosmic tinsel]

not at first, but it came

[barren berry]

nah, rather my main duo partner got burnt off on me doing same mistakes and my party just not playing tarkov as often is i'd wanted@ember pendant

we still play it occasionally

but it is rather rare sequence

[ember pendant]

I feel ya. I'll be back with the wipe. Shouldn't be too much longer and we can game again.

[sterile junco]

out of 50+ raids i got out 2 times

[barren berry]

but wipe not gonna drop any time sooner

[crisp nest]

i was able to extract a few times after like 20 raids

[barren berry]

atleast 4 month should pass

[ember pendant]

Yea, surviving is rough when you first start, Limax. More you play better it gets.

[crisp nest]

@barren berry maybe it will be fun if you don't play interchange

joking pls no angy at me

[ember pendant]

I always tell newer players to expect sub 30% survival rate. Depends on your play style on how much you get out.

[cunning dragon]

You still profit every game even if you don't extract, it's all XP and skill points

When you learn the maps better you learn when you should cash in and reset

[crisp nest]

i have around that much bcuz i try pvp unless it's a woods run or a questing run

30% is decent for a new player unless they're ratting/camping

[ember pendant]

Even if they are doing that its still good.

[cunning dragon]

yeah ratting is fun too haha

[ember pendant]

This game is really unforgiving. Normally people aren't rocking 50% survival rate.

[neon sonnet]

im rocking 25% and this game still fun

[ember pendant]

Exactly. That's the appeal of this game.

[neon sonnet]

but ive also set down 3 mil for just pvp and havent been tryna make it out tho

[cunning dragon]

Generally I prioritize Quests > loot > kills... if I see an opportunity then I'll risk it but otherwise I'm not chasing gunshots unless it's for a quest

[crisp nest]

yup i just pvp and hope to get more kits than i lose

usually works except today when i faced a hacker on factory

[ember pendant]

You think it'll be another 4 months brother? I expected another 2 maybe 3.

I'm really hoping streets comes out with the next wipe.

[cosmic tinsel]

dont hold your breath

lighthouse first

[barren berry]

pretty possible that any new map gonna drop with wipe like it was with customs or woods

but also possible that there is not gonna be wipe

like with reserve

[ember pendant]

Just gotta wait and see.

[cosmic tinsel]

it was 3 months between major patches

next major patch is real wipe likely imo

[crisp nest]

i think it'll wipe when they add the new map

[cosmic tinsel]

whenever we start seein lighthouse footage it'll be close

[warped charm]

How does one load an sks

[crisp nest]

load the rounds

or reload with external mags

[rose rock]

in stash you gotta remove the clip

then load it

mid raid it cna be either mags or top fed, depends on the mag

[crisp nest]

^^

[warped charm]

I just bought one from prapor but what ammo do I need to load it

[crisp nest]

PS

7.62 x 39

[ember pendant]

7.62 - PS if you are sub level 10.

[rose rock]

yooooo just finished a scav run in reserve

[crisp nest]

well you can only get ps if you are sub10 but in-general 7.62x39

[crisp nest]

juicy loot then

[rose rock]

👏 ez raider scavenge 👏

[warped charm]

Ty I got it!

[crisp nest]

nice a powerbank

[rose rock]

and a tac tec

[crisp nest]

nice guns too and the purple barter items

o a tac tec nice

[ember pendant]

Nice run dudeski.

[rose rock]

thx, didnt even need to shoot once xd

[crisp nest]

on reserve i usually get a lot of gear cuz i love pvping raiders so i don't make as much if i'd loot stuff

[rose rock]

yeap, and they cant fully lott them

[crisp nest]

then i die to dumb stuff

like i died to a raider literally summoning a grenade

he didn't throw it

it just appeared next to me i heard it clink

[rose rock]

oof

you died as scav or pmc?

[crisp nest]

scav

[rose rock]

oh then you good, you can always go back without any loss :D

[crisp nest]

i was shooting at him then i just hear klink and i die

[rose rock]

you killed any scav beforehand?

[cunning dragon]

I reckon those Russian grenades should make that loud pop when you release the lever like irl

[crisp nest]

yeah he was aggroed

also 1 time had raider loot as pmc im sitting in train

i throw an f1 at the door cuz i hear someone

i see him SIT on it

and he lives

[bold kernel]

i love dying to fucking desync

[green portal]

what's the equipment and guns they were using for Punisher? not sure what was winning and whatnot

[unreal horizon]

MDR's seemed pretty popular

[normal sonnet]

Anyone down to help me with a few starter quests

[sullen cairn]

@normal sonnet yes just dm me

[hallow bluff]

i need a person with lvl 2 teaders to help me i will pay you

[flat hinge]

Does anyone know how to avoid the im not a robot thing when purchasing things from the market?

[crisp nest]

dont buy toooo fast

[rose rock]

not spamming puchase

[warped charm]

Is the biet tac rig any good?

[crisp nest]

what

belt?

[warped charm]

yep

its looks like an i on my screen

[crisp nest]

it holds 25 for 16

so its good to save space

[cerulean spruce]

Crye precision seems like the most bang for your buck in terms of armored rigs?

[ember pendant]

AVS? Not really IMO

[cerulean spruce]

What do you think is better then
One of the level 5 armors?

[ember pendant]

M1 rig is probably better for C4 if you got ragman LL3.

[cerulean spruce]

C4?

level 4?

[ember pendant]

Class 4, Loyality level 3.

[cerulean spruce]

I've only got him loyaly 3

need 30 for loyalty 3

[torn surge]

I run that all the time, I like the rig

[ember pendant]

Theres nothing wrong with the AVS though. Just more efficient stuff for the money.

[warped charm]

I just found it on the ground at the end of a scav run

[celest sage]

Yeah belt rig is pretty good

[cerulean spruce]

I think for my current loyalty it is best~?

It's about 100k

[unreal horizon]

6b3tm is really good

[boreal gust]

any low levels for customs scav kills?

just LF 1 more

[fathom epoch]

what is better shrap 10 or 25

[cerulean spruce]

When should I stop using the diaper right? 6b3tm

@boreal gust Maybe #pvp-lfg

[unreal horizon]

I prefer 25

it still 1 shots

[fathom epoch]

thc

thx

[nimble gale]

@boreal gust you still looking im lvl 9

[strong aspen]

Was this just dumb luck on his part or did I do something wrong https://streamable.com/crer3w

[scenic mesa]

shouldd i start doing raids as a scav so that way i dont lose my stuff when i eventually die?

[tawdry tusk]

I'd recommend using the scav as soon as it becomes available even if you're just running to extract for a quick $

[scenic mesa]

alright, so just dont even bother using my pmc for a while?

[tawdry tusk]

scav has a cooldown on it so you have to wait i think 20 minutes each time you want to use it

[scenic mesa]

ye

[ivory ether]

is bpz fmj worth using on the sa 58 aus

just spawned in with it as a scav and just insta extracted

thinking of running customs with it

[unreal horizon]

it's pretty bad

i'd run at least m80

[ivory ether]

ah gotcha

[lament scroll]

how many cheaters can i die to in one day like

[lament scroll]

i dont think u did anything wrong u just got tarkovd

[barren berry]

scavs are worth it for getting money at start

but dont forget to do quests as PMC

[ivory ether]

ok so what about the svds with t46m

[unreal horizon]

i would replace with SNB ammo and run it

it will butter any armor

[silver hornet]

2 shots any thorax

[ivory ether]

gotcha

[tranquil mortar]

I need help resetting my account

[frozen monolith]

go on the website and reset

[bold kernel]

damn

my bullets do nothing lol

[cosmic tinsel]

gonna need better bullets my mans

its hard sub level 10

but once you get flea, its worth checking out 5.45 BT

[bold kernel]

yeah im barely level 5 so theres not much i can do

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, its tough

gotta go face and stay budget

[bold kernel]

most of the guns i use are from scavs anyways

but dont have much of a choice

[rose rock]

you run scav reserve?

[bold kernel]

never tried that

[rose rock]

boi

[bold kernel]

since theres no good map for it

i avoid it

[rose rock]

well learn it

[bold kernel]

i learned a little bit of it

[rose rock]

theres two filing cabinets i always hit when im feeling ratty

but usually i go to -1 where raiders spawn

now i aint going there to kill them

my hope is that they are dead

or alive

not idela but its easy loot

[bold kernel]

dont they attack player scavs too?

[rose rock]

if you dont kill scavs, they wont agro you

mostly

[bold kernel]

oh okay

I'll try that in a bit since i have scavs

reserve and interchange always look scary

[rose rock]

but yeah now the dead raiders imply the chance of dead pmcs nearby

[bold kernel]

any ideal timer?

[rose rock]

30~15 minutes, depends on the overall luck

[bold kernel]

okay well its free anyways so thanks for the tip ill try it out

[rose rock]

now this was a scav run i did, 3 raiders and 2 pmcs bodies on bunker

and i had to leave a svds behind becuase no space

now grnated i went pmc with rpk and died in dorms, but it dont matter, shit was free xd

[neat linden]

I found a Plauge mask

as well as a GP Coin in my factory run

Is this stuff valuble?

[rose rock]

sell it to therapist

[neat linden]

Ah

22k

[bold kernel]

you can either save gp coins for trades

or sell

[rose rock]

yeah but the ones that are worth it its further ahead

[foggy egret]

plague usually sells for 50k on market, but if you dont have flea you can sell it for like 30k to ragman, and gp coin you can keep for good trades or just sell them to therpaist for like 30k

[bold kernel]

@rose rock where is the scav raiders spawn ?

that you go to

or do you normally check all possible spawns

[neat linden]

I always sell all my guns cause I got no space, I keep the interesting stuff I find, so I think'll keep it for awhile

[foggy egret]

reserve and labs

[bold kernel]

where on reserve usually

[foggy egret]

under hermetic bunker entrance and some other buildings

im not too sure i hardly run reserve

[bold kernel]

okay thanks

[craggy sapphire]

btw

What should i do with my mk18?

[bold kernel]

found all this in a scav but couldnt find the extract

probably why i dont play reserve

[craggy sapphire]

Does this still work?

OOfd

That shotgun worth alot rn

[sullen elm]

whos breeki did you cheeki to get that?

[restive kettle]

Wtf do u mean does it still work @craggy sapphire

[craggy sapphire]

I mean like does it still cover the face?

While aiming

[ancient falcon]

anyone know what to do about sweaty palms?

only happens in tarkov

never get this in other games

[craggy sapphire]

Bc this is tarkov

[bold kernel]

haha

someone wanne play with me, im noob tho?

[craggy sapphire]

But does it cover your face?

[rustic sorrel]

anyone wana play? i'm only lv4

[bold kernel]

#pvp-lfg if you looking for teamates

[viral prawn]

Anyone looking for a coach?

[craggy sapphire]

Oops

[waxen yarrow]

Anyone know how to pack mags like this? Look at the hot bar

[clever copper]

hold R and use the scroll wheel

[waxen yarrow]

Thanks homie

[cerulean spruce]

How long does a maxed out bitcoin take now?

To produce 1 bitcoin

with 50 gpus in it

[clever copper]

9 hours and 39 minutes

[manic bear]

yes

[paper prawn]

its in front of u lol

[red geyser]

what exactly does it mean when a player all I can see is they were a bear but nothing else shrouded in ???

[dawn geyser]

You didn't pick up his dogtag

Or didn't make it out with his dog tag

[red geyser]

oh really?

[dawn geyser]

Yes when you see the details and his name it means you confirmed the kill

Took the dogtag out of raid

[red geyser]

oh, ok

well they got me good, it seems

Could not see them over the hill in los

yet still got dropped

[bold kernel]

wasnt available sadly

my fault for not checking

[ornate steppe]

how do I deal with groups as a solo I feel like I just kill one or two and I am not able to heal or the other one just instantly kills me

[dawn geyser]

Positioning and falling back

Odds are stacked against you as you know

try and fight at a choke

eg. around corners

through a hallway

[ornate steppe]

i

i'll try and start doing that more

ty for the tips

[dawn geyser]

Good luck my brave sir, odds are stacked against solo players especially learning the game

[fierce hill]

can someone put a 4.1 in M-LOK on the market? its the last thing I need for gunsmith part 4

thank you

[ornate steppe]

I mean even if I lose a fight im still happy because most of the time I kill 1 or 2 and they have to waste time insurance frauding

[dawn geyser]

Haha

[red geyser]

Feels better when I remember you cannot win every fight but to attempt to fight as if it was your last

[craggy sapphire]

Time for labs

[paper prawn]

get a usb and barter it

[craggy sapphire]

Missing anything?

[dawn geyser]

lol that's a weird question to be asking with your loadout

[craggy sapphire]

Ik

[dawn geyser]

But no you're not missing anything

[craggy sapphire]

I just want to be sure

K

Thanks

[dawn geyser]

[red geyser]

How do I get a better pouch like them?

[craggy sapphire]

I remember when i was a dirty hatchet runner

[red geyser]

Then you took a few lvls to the knee?

[dawn geyser]

You can do your Punisher questline and get an Epsilon container

2x4 pouch

You cannot get the 3x3 pouch with standard account

[craggy sapphire]

Or you can get the beta from peacekeeper lvl 2

Really expensive tho

[dawn geyser]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/The_Punisher_-_Part_6

You can hit the "Previous" button under the Quest image to see the previous task that leads to it

[red geyser]

I think I will learn to not die as much first I guess x'D

[dawn geyser]

Haha yeah your first wipe you'll probably just be dealing with a small pouch until you learn the game

It's quite difficult to obtain on a first wipe unless you're a really solid shooter

[red geyser]

I will say only thing in my way truly is the lack of clarity of exfils

[craggy sapphire]

Got killed by a third party

Dude

Wtf

This always happened

Happens to me

xd

[dawn geyser]

Yep that's Tarkov for ya

[red geyser]

Someone came to the party, but said screw the guest list?

[dawn geyser]

Was the enemy running suppressed?

The first group you fought

[craggy sapphire]

Yea

[dawn geyser]

Must've been a close third party then

[craggy sapphire]

HE was at the bridge

I was fighting a guy in red

[dawn geyser]

Ah it was labs

[craggy sapphire]

Yeah

[red geyser]

Is there a way to become familiar with the exits w/o looking online?

[craggy sapphire]

Almost impossible

But yeah

IT will take a while

[red geyser]

I know one spot in factory, but I hate factory

[dawn geyser]

You really only have to get used to 2 exits per map

You spawn on one side, exfil will be on opposite side

[small cairn]

Running around in offline mode, but u should really look it up and look for it ingame (offline mode)

[dawn geyser]

Applies for all maps except for Factory

[small cairn]

And reserve

[dawn geyser]

troo

[red geyser]

Had a reserve run with another player and spawned scav w/ the lab card

[small cairn]

Interchange is partly under the "opposite spawn"

Theres like 1 exfil that changes

Between emercom/rail

[red geyser]

barely made it out alive, bleeding and left for dead, nearly kia

[craggy sapphire]

Missing anything?

[dawn geyser]

Good to go

You're quite the chad

Backpacking survkits

I like the gonads

[red geyser]

beautiful gear, how you die last time with kits so good?

[dawn geyser]

3rd party

[craggy sapphire]

Yeah

[red geyser]

Must have been one hell of a fight the first one

[whole ruin]

doing some night raids on customs in lfg #3 if any new guys would like to tag along on a 6 extract streak rn

[craggy sapphire]

Fuck

Thought i didin't have any nades

So i left the que

[dawn geyser]

lmao

[craggy sapphire]

And then i realised i had nades

I have some keycards

That is why i play labs

And last night i only had 300k

And then i wiped a chad fourman

Got happy af

[ornate steppe]

labs is too scary for me i'll stick to reserve, woods, customs, and factory

[craggy sapphire]

I stick to labs and interchange

Money and pvp

omfg i just threw a nade in violet by accident

xd

Omg dude

I got scared af

A raider just came out of nowhere

These raiders really hate my right arm

[serene adder]

better if they hate your arm rather than thorax/head

[craggy sapphire]

Ik

But it is annoying

[peak sparrow]

anyone new want help on eu servers?

[serene adder]

u level up cms skill so thats good, i love it

tarkov shooter is such a pain to do

[craggy sapphire]

Got out

The game was so dead that i even looted manager

Gonna do a interchange run

Okay i am sinning

I am using the vector

[trim aspen]

Duct tape is

from 16k to 70k

[plush quest]

duxt tape is 70k?

new craft?

[craggy sapphire]

Wtf dude

I can't do anything

[plush quest]

you have to dc

[ornate steppe]

why do I even go to factory

[craggy sapphire]

I literally got spawn killed on interchange

[plush quest]

[trim aspen]

there was a momentary shortage it seems

I managed to sell 2 at 44k

now lowest is around 12k lmao

[craggy sapphire]

lol

Going in again

But more rat like on night reserve

[trim aspen]

How is night reserve?

[craggy sapphire]

What do you jmean?

[trim aspen]

Is it way easier than day reserve?

[craggy sapphire]

Idk

[plush quest]

easier

[craggy sapphire]

I have only done it twice

[plush quest]

im on night reserve rn

[craggy sapphire]

You know i gotta get the cheap night vision

[trim aspen]

Do you go to black bishop?

I wonder if it's still highly contested

[plush quest]

i dont

i just turn button on and farm raiders

[craggy sapphire]

Oh

[trim aspen]

👍 👍 👍

[craggy sapphire]

I usually just loot the bunker and then i go cliff discent

[graceful nova]

Anyone can help with dorms on customs?

[trim aspen]

wow you got RR already?

[craggy sapphire]

Yeah

'

[plush quest]

wdym already?
