[tough gull]

Damn. I need to use something else, then

[reef prairie]

sks

probably more likely to come back with insurance

[tough gull]

getting low on money so i can afford maybe 15 naked SKS runs before I'm completely out

[reef prairie]

than any pistol

[bleak shell]

My scav was rockin sandals

[reef prairie]

do your scav runs, free money

[unreal horizon]

that will be more than enough to make some money

[unreal horizon]

sheeesh drip check

[tough gull]

Yeah, I'll resort to IC stash runs when I'm about to go bankrupt

[reef prairie]

i want those for my pmc. or even better, the crocs

[bleak shell]

here is the man himself lol

[reef prairie]

those pants

sexy

[ivory ether]

wtf can i even do with water collector, it kinda just sits there lol. i only need it to craft cigs atm tho

besides like hydration regen

[unreal horizon]

at lvl 3 you can craft superwater

[ivory ether]

ooh

sounds neat

ugh bolts and screws are so damn expensive

[unreal horizon]

then you use to superwater to craft moonshine

[ivory ether]

and the moonshine is for gambling on the scav box?

thats what i heard lol

[unreal horizon]

yeah you sell if it's net positive, gamble if it isn't

[ivory ether]

ah

[unique dagger]

hey my friend and i just started playing eft and we were wondering if anyone would want to help us because we are ass

[full timber]

should i replace any of these keys for others?

[buoyant plume]

uh some guy on interchange just let me get out with a reapir is that good

[unreal horizon]

lol yeah

[gilded axle]

Hey guys how do I get good?
Im struggling REALLY hard to do the first prapor quest, In like a total of 4 hours Ive gotten 1 kill and 0 mp-133 shotguns, I just keep dying all the time and I dont know how to prevent this. My most recent run involved me killing 1 scav, almost killing another, and getting rolled up on by some guy with I think a grenade launcher? Idk, like 3 explosions went off next to me in rapid succession and killed me

[crisp nest]

you got killed by an ags

mounted gl on a building

lol

[unreal horizon]

oh yeah that makes sense

[gilded axle]

The weird thing is, is that I was near like a sniper scav spawn, like I was right next to a wooded area, no way a MG could see me through the tree line

[unreal horizon]

do the kills if you want, don't worry about the shotguns, you can buy them from jaeger after you complete the quest "introduction" from mechanic

[gilded axle]

oh alright cool

[unreal horizon]

yeah they don't actually have to be found in raid so if you can't find them don't sweat it

[crisp nest]

buy them

[rough scarab]

take it slow when trying to kill scavs

running around usually just attracts pmcs

[unreal horizon]

scavs are pretty easy to deal with once you learn how they work. They lock on to last known location so if you don't repeak them you're fine

even just peaking from the other side of an obstacle is enough to throw them off

if you want practice killing scavs, go into factory in offline mode and set the number of bots to high

[crisp nest]

difficulty to as online

i like horde better but itll be hard if you have bad gear to stay alive

[unreal horizon]

isn't horde buggy?

[gilded axle]

I cant really learn how they work when they do a full 180 and 1 shot me as soon as I start shooting at them, it feels like they're way too strong, at least for me.

[strong osprey]

had the game for a week and im seriously stuggling. if someone could duo with me for a little bit i would really appreciate it

[gilded axle]

I just died to one after putting 8 shots at him down range, and he just does a 180 and bops me like it was nothing

[unreal horizon]

honestly just go for headshots then, take them out quick and easy

[gilded axle]

haha Ill try my best

[unreal horizon]

scavs are pretty dumb, but every so often there are cracked scavs and it isn't your fault

[unkempt cargo]

I have went on interchange so many times as a scav and found no flash drives. How do you get lucky enough to get some?

[gilded axle]

Oh alright, well thats good to know its not JUST that Im dogshit.
Also another thing, I can complete quests in scav runs right?

[unreal horizon]

I usually loot safes

nope

[unkempt cargo]

No. Quests cant be completed on scav runs

the exception is to gather found in raid items

[unreal horizon]

you can get quest items like the shotguns, but kills and quest inventory are pmc only

[unkempt cargo]

Ah. I thought they had a higher chance to spawn on pcs

[gilded axle]

That is.. absurd,
I get no XP from scav runs
I cant do quests as scav runs
They seem worthless once you're not low level and have some money :/

[unreal horizon]

I've seen 1 in a pc this whole wipe, the odds are really low from my experience

[unreal horizon]

they are

they're a buffer so you don't go broke questing

[gilded axle]

Huh, alright

[dawn umbra]

hey i need help i have no idea how to play and its getting frustrating

[bold kernel]

mans called eboy gaming

[crisp nest]

and he has that ahegao picture

typical discord user here

[bold kernel]

19 yr old on the internet

[crisp nest]

i thought i was down bad then i saw him

[radiant sable]

😶

[bold kernel]

why is my fucking gun on

single fire

dude

which fucking ape sells their guns on single fire

[crisp nest]

imagine getting a gun back in insurance

where the guy sets it to single

[bold kernel]

wtf is insurance

that isnt a thing on labs

[crisp nest]

lmao

[radiant sable]

Last wipe I ran up on a slick exfil he was crouched and turned away from me and I shot him but I was on single fire and he turned and killed me

[heavy bear]

lvl 10 finally

[unreal horizon]

now the fun starts

[crisp nest]

now you will meet mike in d2

he will have le ks23

[unreal horizon]

perhaps

[bold kernel]

my ks is lvl 3

begone

[unreal horizon]

🦀

[haughty tulip]

Learn how to hipfire or evil scav man will bite your toes with a shotgun

Idk what's going on in reserve

One too many people running that mandalorian helmet

[bold kernel]

my game litearlly bugged out and i couldnt run anymore

fuck this shit

i was slow walking for the whole game stuck in green against a 3 man

[crisp nest]

i got the no gun bug mid fight

[safe mason]

anyone wanna run a few raids with me first wipe 5 and some what have map knowledge

*lvl 5

[simple cosmos]

is there any way i can convert currency?

[crisp nest]

which one to which

@simple cosmos roubles to euro/dollar of course yes, euro that is found in raid yes, dollars/non FIR euro not really

[simple cosmos]

for an example

roubles into dollars

[crisp nest]

yes

you can literally buy dollars

[simple cosmos]

how can i do it

[crisp nest]

peacekeeper

[simple cosmos]

k thanks

[crisp nest]

just saying im pretty sure u can see this on the wiki

[simple cosmos]

yeah honestly knowing this server

this is faster in every way

[bold kernel]

@vocal grove hi

[crisp nest]

it takes like 10s to serach up dollars tarkov

then click on link and it says sold by peacekeeper ll1

[bold kernel]

i dont have mic

[vocal grove]

@bold kernel WHATS UP

[bold kernel]

i just got the game

[crisp nest]

no offense most people wont squad with u if you dont have a mic

or u might get teamkilled a lot

[simple cosmos]

unintentionally

i feel like i had to add that

[bold kernel]

harsh.

ima just go solo then

scav runnn

customs

[simple cosmos]

i mean you have to communicate

[crisp nest]

im just saying even a dollar store mic helps

like walmart level shitty mic

[unreal horizon]

I mean in a game where squad play and comms are important, I wouldn't say it's harsh

[bold kernel]

and i dont know what a extraction is i mean where

[bold kernel]

no ik

[simple cosmos]

you dont have highlighted usernames above you teammates' heads'

they have to tell you it's them

so you'd shoot them unintentionally

[bold kernel]

i watched welyn so i liked this game lol

[crisp nest]

damn i spawned with this couldve hit marked as a scav

thank you fellow player scav for wiggling

and not killing me

[viral prawn]

Right, but unless you plan on playing solo, communications is required for this game

[rough scarab]

how do u use the compass in game

[viral prawn]

Press "U"

[simple cosmos]

yeah i just said that in a very small nutshell

[heavy bear]

solo is not giving the game justice

[bold kernel]

how to check where extraction is

i just spawned and there is 13 minutes left

[simple cosmos]

double tap o

[crisp nest]

online maps

[heavy bear]

but i solo to lvl 10 and at least learned to give good cover

[bold kernel]

where is scavs checkpoint

[viral prawn]

For the most part i only play solo because i have no friends who play this game

[heavy bear]

just now starting to group up

[viral prawn]

That could be a few places, what map are you on

[bold kernel]

same

[heavy bear]

here you have thew hole world

[bold kernel]

customs

[crisp nest]

use a map

online

[bold kernel]

oh

[simple cosmos]

go on the main road and start memorizing the map from there

just try not to get killed tho

it's very easy to die on customs

[haughty tulip]

"Try not to get killed"

I don't think you have a choice when dying is involved

[crisp nest]

you do

[simple cosmos]

you kinda do

[crisp nest]

dont take fights that u can avoid

[haughty tulip]

Really now

[crisp nest]

yeah

[simple cosmos]

you can go sprinting onto the main road

[bold kernel]

frick i died

[crisp nest]

you can choose to be safe

[simple cosmos]

and you will get sniped almost instantly

if you prone and blend into the bushes

[haughty tulip]

eh

[simple cosmos]

i doubt you'll get killed

[haughty tulip]

Don't go in the main road

[bold kernel]

should i just go main character run

[simple cosmos]

he should go to memorize the map tho

[bold kernel]

@agile tinsel can i get invited to?

[simple cosmos]

just do a scav run or go offline

[unreal horizon]

of course, that's the only way to progress

[bold kernel]

i dont

have a mic

[simple cosmos]

do you have ear buds?

[crisp nest]

no offense basically u have the choices of solo or getting a mic

ear bud mic even

headset shitty mic too

[bold kernel]

lol

[simple cosmos]

if you have ear buds

[bold kernel]

i have a shitty mic but like it makes me sound 11

and a kid

[simple cosmos]

plug them into your phone

well i mean

[bold kernel]

then ppl call me underage

[simple cosmos]

if that's the problem i think you'll just have to deal with it

[bold kernel]

so like

[simple cosmos]

because you really have no other option when it comes to playing with ppl

unless you can buy another mic

[unreal horizon]

btw literally no one gives a shit what you sound like as long as you're mature in what you're saying

it's all good

[simple cosmos]

yup

just dont bass boost your teammates

[bold kernel]

ok my mic works

[simple cosmos]

and dont move away farther from the mic

[bold kernel]

woo

[indigo herald]

does anyone knows if i die while doing the task "delivery from the past" on the factory part would i lose the quest item?

[pine mortar]

yes

[rose rock]

yeap

[indigo herald]

;/

[rose rock]

rip, it'll go better o7

[quaint flicker]

one way to do it "safely" is going with 4 other players on daytime so all playerslots are filled and only scavs could kill you and some friendly happy accidents

[unreal horizon]

you sound like you had a traumatic experience in the factory

[compact token]

who didnt

[quaint flicker]

i counted 6 nades bouncing in the shack and at least 4 of those were frags

[placid talon]

any labs mains wanna guide me through

and my team

[viral prawn]

Yes you do loose the quest item

[rough geyser]

can anyone help me with the bronze pocket watch task

[pure mist]

and you have to redo on customs again

[viral prawn]

if your NA yeah

[rough geyser]

yeah i am, i already loaded up tho ill see if ill make it alive

[heavy bear]

what dorm key for water room please?

[crisp nest]

206

[heavy bear]

nope none for sale

hoot found one

[sturdy dragon]

anyone able to help with resevre?

[crisp nest]

do u have red rebel?

@sturdy dragon

[sturdy dragon]

no

y?

[crisp nest]

because its much harder to extract

[sturdy dragon]

a

ah

i usually just go D-2

[unreal horizon]

no, d-2 is perfectly safe and there are no rats, come extract especially when you're full on gear

[crisp nest]

lmao

[sturdy dragon]

lol

im good

[shy coral]

you'll encounter more player early but late idk

[crisp nest]

shameless plug

[sturdy dragon]

yea

[quaint flicker]

yeah the only "safe" extract is the RR one the others are either camped most of the time and you have to fight over those or you have to leave your bagpack

[sturdy dragon]

killed glukar earlier and almost got fucked by exfil camper

[bold kernel]

Whats a decent 9x19 round I can run in my glock as a level 11? I don't think Pst gzh is going to cut it

[sturdy dragon]

eventually ran out of time and lost all my loot

[shy coral]

luger cci go for legs

[sturdy dragon]

got a damn keycard outta it too

[bold kernel]

thanks

[shy coral]

ap 6.3 is expensive on flea

[quaint flicker]

AP 6.3 if you can craft them otherwise a round like RIP or Luger and then legging

[crisp nest]

is it g17 or g18c

[rough scarab]

are gp coins good for anything

[quaint flicker]

G18 50 round 7N31 into a scav sounds reasonable right?

[shy coral]

trades

[unreal horizon]

you can trade them to mechanic

[quaint flicker]

and GP arent really worth much tbh

[unreal horizon]

for a few guns

[bold kernel]

G17

[unreal horizon]

yes, but you have to mag dump every scav just to be sure

[rough scarab]

most of what seem like good trades are higher level

[crisp nest]

use pst then

[shy coral]

u can use 7 of them for labs card

or gen4

[rough scarab]

i have 1

[shy coral]

nvm lab card is changed

[quaint flicker]

and buying the Gen4 is cheaper on the flea

[shy coral]

yea if you're lucky u can find 65/65

like 150k

[quaint flicker]

atm there are a couple for 110k instead of the 210k with GP

[shy coral]

you'd better off using gen4 than korund

[quaint flicker]

running no armor cuz you get 3sk or something anyways

[shy coral]

3sk?

[quaint flicker]

3 shot kill

[shy coral]

oh

well if they are using good ammo

omg i hate raiders

[oblique heron]

I love raiders

[quaint flicker]

i only see free loot there wheres the problem

[shy coral]

the problem is they can one tap you sometimes

and i hate that

even though i'm bhopping

[quaint flicker]

rather skill in luck than agility and hope for ricochet

[shy coral]

bruh i've been anti helmet in labs

either shattered mask or nothing

[candid steeple]

any dealers sell sparkplugs?

[uncut swift]

Dude with labs just replace your helmet with grenades

[shy coral]

flea

[quaint flicker]

nope but craftable for horrendeos price

[candid steeple]

oof dont have it yet

[oblique heron]

A paper bag for a helmet is actually meta rn

[quaint flicker]

ah you need for the generator?

[candid steeple]

yea

[shy coral]

shattered actually saves lol

[quaint flicker]

just go toolboxes on customs theyre really not rare

[candid steeple]

ooo alright thanks

[ivory ether]

interchange is also pretty decent for spark plugs

[oblique heron]

yeah till you get shot in the back of the head xD

[unreal horizon]

toolboxes and filing cabinets, I guarantee you'll find it in 1 raid

[uncut swift]

What are your guys' opinion on early level quests v.s. just playing

[rough scarab]

fuck literally had 7 seconds on the repair and some dude runs up and starts shooting me

he missed though so I got to back away

[oblique heron]

early level quests give you a decent amount of xp and help you get to 10 faster. you can also pvp whilst doing said tasks

[unreal horizon]

spamming quests to get high traders makes just playing much more fun

[uncut swift]

fair fair

[quaint flicker]

early quests helps getting some money/xp and the items are fine most of the times

[shy coral]

LUL

[uncut swift]

once you get past the blast from the past mission or whatever its called it gets much more bearable

(AKA) when you gtfo of customsk

[willow plover]

ooooooo baby, not sure how much its worth, but scav'd reserve to try and loot some dead raiders and walked away with a lab wep testing key

[uncut swift]

no thats an amazing key!

Good job dude!

[willow plover]

was leavin black knight and decided to check the jacket on the first floor

[uncut swift]

it gives raider level m4's and DMRS

[willow plover]

glad i did

[uncut swift]

hell, its so good you can have only 2 in your inventory at a time XD

[willow plover]

awwwwww doesn't sell for much though 😦

[unreal horizon]

about 60k, not great but good for a 1 slot

[willow plover]

110k right now is low on flea

[unreal horizon]

wait fr?

[shy coral]

ok so where is the switch for main elevator

i can't seem to find

[chilly dagger]

idk wtf i just got shot by

but i think i blew up

jesus christ

[quaint flicker]

labs?

[shy coral]

y

[sullen pawn]

Anyone willing to help a newbie on customs? DM me

[quaint flicker]

GL40, hand thrown grenades, landmines or stationary grenade launchers all are a firey experience

[quaint flicker]

in the connector room near there

difficult to explain

[shy coral]

here right (ignore the dead body)

[quaint flicker]

you said main elevator right?

[shy coral]

yea

oh nvm it's near some stair

[quaint flicker]

i really have to think how i should explain it yeah its near R4

i know how to walk there but cant explain it for someone else sorry

[light cipher]

do you lose ammo regardless if you were looted or not when you die in raid?

[reef prairie]

yes

[quaint flicker]

you cant insure ammo so you lose it anyways

[light cipher]

kinda figured

makes sense

[shy coral]

found it

[reef prairie]

consumables cant be insured

[light cipher]

cool, thx

[quaint flicker]

glad to hear

[ivory ether]

just absolutely clapped a duo of player scavs on my way out of interchange

ppsh is god

[quaint flicker]

PPSh is good until its bad

[ivory ether]

yee, none of them had helmets so

[crisp nest]

lmao

[ivory ether]

one had a 6b13

[crisp nest]

i killed 2 guys on labs running meta guns but they both had 6b47

[ivory ether]

where is cottage safe key used

got one from one of the player scavs

[unreal horizon]

it's in the cottage on shoreline

[quaint flicker]

in the villa theres a safe thats locked

[ivory ether]

ah alright

[late tangle]

anyone trying to group up looking for friends to start running with

[quaint flicker]

btw sidenote that villa is locked so you wont get in unless you have that key

[stable smelt]

will be on tonight around 11 my time i need a third im new and need some help good at killing but still just new and dont know where everything is

[ivory ether]

ok i hit this guy 4 times with flechette

where kill

[unreal horizon]

maybe hit stomach?

[rough scarab]

Yea

If he had armor it won’t do much

[ivory ether]

i dont really know how damage numbers work in this game, but 287 dmg to body

[unreal horizon]

thorax you need to do 85 dmg stomach you need to do 440

[ivory ether]

ah

[rough scarab]

Probably spread

[unreal horizon]

flechette shreds armor tho

[rough scarab]

Really

[ivory ether]

yeah true, i was at glass window corridor at factory and he was in forklifts

so maybe the spread was a bit off

[unreal horizon]

lol that is not the place to take a fight with a shotgun

[ivory ether]

yeah ik but another guy was blocking my exit

[unreal horizon]

not strategically responsible

[rough scarab]

I killed a dude across the train bridge on customs with flechette

[ivory ether]

and the dude shot me through the gaps in the crates lul

he had 8.5 mm

[unreal horizon]

swagnum buck

[ivory ether]

yeah, i didnt bring any armor so if i did, i might have had a chance

cause im down bad on roubles rn

just the ol 153, gssh, and balaclava

also, is there an option to autofill items from vendors

clicking fill everytime is kinda tiresome

[quaint flicker]

yeah you click the small box

the one right besides the "fill"

[ivory ether]

ooh

ok yeah didnt see that thanks lol

[quaint flicker]

dont worry we all have that moment sometimes

[ivory ether]

ye

HAHAAHHA YES

JUST TAPPED 3 CHADS IN THE EYES

well not the eys but the head

and successfully extracted

oops no not 3, 2

+1 altyn, +1 svds

[unreal horizon]

sheesh nice

[ivory ether]

svds

everything except 153 and cf was from the guy

didnt get to loot the other guy cause a guy was chasing me with some kind of smg

[unreal horizon]

the old flechette to the brain

works every time

[light scarab]

Flechette gang

[ivory ether]

yeee, and now friend from the west is done

[unreal horizon]

hell yeah

[light scarab]

We have the same amount of rubels degg

I've got 2.4mil too

[ivory ether]

haha nice

also, the guy with the svds had horrible aim, he had 7n1 and didnt kill me somehow

[unreal horizon]

prob doing punisher 6

[ivory ether]

what does he have to do for that

[unreal horizon]

15 pmc kills with the svd

[ivory ether]

oh

[unreal horizon]

i'd guess he was spamming factory for it

or just having fun with an svd who knows

[ivory ether]

yea lol

wait hol up, is the quest bugged or something, the quest didnt progress

for friend from the west

[unreal horizon]

uh did you turn in all tags?

[ivory ether]

yeah

5/7 usec kills

i killed 1 usec that raid and 1 bear

[unreal horizon]

look at the tags, those 2 were bear

[ivory ether]

so it should be 6/7

aw fuck

[unreal horizon]

lol still a good raid

[ivory ether]

yeah true

now i get to run more factory yay

[unreal horizon]

idk how you enjoy this much factory but hey, play how you have fun

[ivory ether]

haha yeah, small maps are pretty fun for me in tarkov

[unreal horizon]

I've been doing the opposite, sniping reserve and shoreline today

[rough scarab]

Debating giving the svd a shot

[unreal horizon]

it's so fun

snb you're 2 tapping anyone

and with 20 rnd mags you're set

[rough scarab]

Have some 7n1 and snb from raids so don’t even have to buy a lot of ammo

[ivory ether]

oh yeah and the glock he had had some 7n31 which is very nice

[unreal horizon]

ay nice

lol I have like 6 stacks of 7n31 sitting around because I just never use 9x19

[ivory ether]

damn

[unreal horizon]

doesn't sell for much so might as well keep it for a rainy day

[ivory ether]

ye

welp, bouta run some more factory lul

[unreal horizon]

go shoot boolets at chads

[ivory ether]

yessss

[unreal horizon]

or little nail/dart things if you're flechette'ing

[ivory ether]

oof just got styled on by an m4

[unreal horizon]

m4 in factory is lame

use a fun gun

[ivory ether]

fr

[unreal horizon]

probably died labs and needed an ego boost

[ivory ether]

actually, the fire rate was a little slow so maybe an mdr or something

[chrome atlas]

ive got like 300 hours but im still a beginner bc ive done no quests end my suffering

[ivory ether]

haha

[bold kernel]

same lmao

[crisp nest]

u bullied the guy doing pp6

xd

[ivory ether]

ugh the dude was in my way while i was running from someone chasing me with an mp7 or some shit lul

had to gtfo

[keen sluice]

rate this meta sa58??

[unreal horizon]

10

[dense raptor]

100/10

[unreal horizon]

tbh ergo is a little high for my liking so maybe a 9

[rough scarab]

Only 336 recoil

[ivory ether]

10/10 use it on labs

[rough scarab]

Recoil so low when you shoot instead of going up it goes down

[dense raptor]

hope its loaded with m80, late wipe after all

[bold kernel]

put a 10 rounder on it dude

50 has too much ergo too op

[ivory ether]

ok wtf

i heard voicelines coming from forklift spawn

like in that room behind them that looks like the gate 3

two pmc's were stacked on eachother on the crates and killed me

that was just hilarious tbh

[rough scarab]

lol

[unreal horizon]

🦀

[ivory ether]

killed one of them tho like 2 seconds after i died

they had pretty shit ammo so i think if i brung some armor i couldve gotten them lol

both had t45 m

[rough scarab]

Armor in factory

[ivory ether]

eh, not shit but not great lul

[rough scarab]

Usually when I go on factory and buy whatever I can get for under 20k

Usually 3m or the other shit one but it’s just so I don’t get tagged by scavs

[ivory ether]

ah

[rough scarab]

That or a sling backpack from ragman

[ivory ether]

i just wear a gssh and balaclava and i dont seem to be marked

[rough scarab]

I hate the gssh

[ivory ether]

haha, its the only headset that isnt too expensive for me atm

just like 2/3 of my money on stash upgrade

[rough scarab]

Used them for a while and once I tried comtacs and m32s I sold all my gsshs

[river cairn]

Anyone know how many GPU it takes to make Bitcoin farm break even with Jaeger fuel cost?

[unreal horizon]

jaeger fuel is 150k and btc is 360k, I think 1 gpu is profit

[ivory ether]

153 with 8 rnd mag is 10k cheaper than 153 with 4 rnd mag

amazing

[dense raptor]

factory is the most fun with a five seven and ss190

[crisp nest]

1

[river cairn]

Ahh ok, i wasnt sure with the ~30 hour craft time for the BTC

[ivory ether]

my factory experience: no armor = i face people with lower tier ammo that will have been protected by zhuk 3, i wear armor = i get beamed by 7n31

the unluckiest of unlucky

[unreal horizon]

I figure if I can shoot them in the face quicker then they can shoot me in the face, I dont need armor

[crisp nest]

i go low gear: i kill thicc bois

i go geared: vector gamer beams me

[rough scarab]

I got double teamed on factory, one dude was using rip another ap 6.3

Rip aimed for face dude with ap was hitting thorax

Synchronized factory runs

[ivory ether]

ayy friend of the west is now officially done

gaming

[ivory ether]

dropped a guy who had a ks23 shrap 10 and a guy with a glock

[unreal horizon]

time to do stuff for peacekeeper

[ivory ether]

time to speedrun any% wr pk to get that sweet sweet ap 6.3

[unreal horizon]

pk 3 and 4 are so nice

[ivory ether]

true

[unreal horizon]

4 you can get funky with grenade launchers

[ivory ether]

ay i need to try sum of that

sounds fun

[unreal horizon]

I have an ammo box and a half of instant fuse grenades just waiting

idk if i'm gonna use them because gl just isn't very fun

[ivory ether]

gl on factory sounds fun lul

[unreal horizon]

i'm just saying it rn when I use the gl i'm gonna be exit camping

farming some salt

[crisp nest]

ive died 2 times in dorms today and once in resort while kitted

😦

1 last try im gonna go juiced

[ivory ether]

so if i have the sv98 equipped on me, will it still be placed in the boat for fishing gear or does it have to be stored in a backpack or something

[unreal horizon]

do yo quests bro

[unreal horizon]

yeah you can have it in back slot

[ivory ether]

ah thats good

would suck to have to bring a bp with me everytime i attempt this quest

[radiant sable]

Why Korund?!?!

[unreal horizon]

you should get it 1st try, that area of the map is pretty calm

[crisp nest]

i had one

[radiant sable]

Altyn m4 korund is sad

[crisp nest]

why

[radiant sable]

Durability so bad anyone can kill u

[ivory ether]

oh ok good to know ty

[crisp nest]

i got 3 tapped by ap sx

i hate this game

[cunning dragon]

I think technically the gssh provides the greatest footstep boost but nobody wants to use them as the sound is grating

[crisp nest]

gg to meta m4 2 60s of 855a1 an altyn and korund

[cedar gust]

anyone know what meds i should bring no matter what in a pmc raid i got the game yesterday and need some tips lol

[bold kernel]

propital usually helps

[rough scarab]

Yea honestly I’ll sacrifice the extra foot step boost for not having every leaf I touch blast into my ears

[quaint flicker]

as said something to heal (AI-2) and something to stop bleeds (tourniquet and bandage)

[cunning dragon]

always at least some stuff to deal with light bleeds, heavy bleeds, splint, painkillers and something to heal hp

[quaint flicker]

splints are more optional in my opinion and not really worth most of the time especially if you have painkillers

[cunning dragon]

yeah tho they are so cheap

[cedar gust]

wut about cms?

[quaint flicker]

i wouldnt bring those unless you have a bigger secure container tbh

[rough scarab]

If you have alu splints it’s not that bad cause you get multiple uses

[bold kernel]

I assume they only have an alpha container

[quaint flicker]

yeah said they started playing yesterday

[cunning dragon]

surgery stuff is just nice to have ... shove it in your pouch since can be a bit expensive early

[cedar gust]

im level 4 lmao

[rough scarab]

Don’t think u can even get cms

[cedar gust]

i have it lol

[rough scarab]

Oh lol

[cunning dragon]

did you buy EOD?

[quaint flicker]

finding i guess

[rough scarab]

If you’re gonna take cms keep it in your container

[cedar gust]

no standard

yea i have the cms in my container

[rough scarab]

If you’re not pvping idk if it’s super important though

[cunning dragon]

really cheap and nasty stuff like bandage, tournique, basic splint and AI-2 you can just put in your pockets because they are so cheap doesn't matter if you lose them

[cedar gust]

ive got 1 spot left in my container what should i put in it

[cunning dragon]

maybe put painkiller in your pouch, still cheapish

[quaint flicker]

they add up if you die every raid tho

[rough scarab]

Do you have afaks

[cedar gust]

uhhhhhhhhhhh

i dont think so

[rough scarab]

What’s in ur container rn

[cedar gust]

ammo and cms

[quaint flicker]

whats more effective is having a IFAK+Hemostats or a Salwea kit in the secure container at the beginning

[rough scarab]

Why ammo

[cunning dragon]

if it's good ammo keep it in your pouch

[cedar gust]

my friend told me too xD

i dont know much abt this shit lmao

[cunning dragon]

if its rubbish it doesn't matter

https://eft.monster/

what I do even now with some guns like ones I can single load is keep a handful of ammo in pocket and rest in pouch, especially if it is 500+ roubles per round

[quaint flicker]

if you want and are on EU servers i can help you out to get a bit more into the more complicated things (if you arent EU i can still talk about it but i wont play with you then cuz i probably just get disconnected every 15 sec)

[cedar gust]

im on US east

im not that far from eu lmao

[quaint flicker]

east might still be bearable who knows tarkov servers are premium after all

[unreal horizon]

[cunning dragon]

like BP ammo for sks is nice but you don't need it all in ur pockets. And some good shotgun ammo like AP20

[cedar gust]

i have a couple of friends that play but he plays with a fucking 6 stack

thats too many people

[crisp nest]

u cant 6 stack

[gloomy oak]

lol

[cunning dragon]

yeah max 5

but same shit

[cedar gust]

then it was 5 cuz i was watching screen share with 8 ppl in call

[quaint flicker]

the sixth one trying to join in with a scav i guess xD

[rough scarab]

They have one guy running around in a different raid following along

[cunning dragon]

I find when I run in big groups we run into other big groups it's weird... solo I only ever run into other solos

[rough scarab]

Imagine if eft had ranked match making

[cedar gust]

it doesnt??

[quaint flicker]

as solo i constantly run into groups and in a group my friends starting to cyberbully that one solo

[cunning dragon]

would be nice but maybe the wait time would be too long

[rough scarab]

Not really

I’ve been in raids and died to level 50s

[unreal horizon]

not whatsoever

[rose rock]

i mean how else do i scrounge up my lvl 50 dead chads to my collection?

[crisp nest]

are reserve spawns that close?

[rose rock]

well

[quaint flicker]

yes.

[crisp nest]

and this was night-time and he started shooting me like 10s in

with ump

[rose rock]

i did arrive to d2 generator room and found a pile of corpses

half of which were players

and the other were raiders

like rn lmao

[crisp nest]

wish i could get some of that xd

lost 3.5mil today so far in 5 raids

[rose rock]

well there was a live raider and two scavs made me go full paranoid thinking it was a player

even heard water steps

[unreal horizon]

it wasn't me I promise

[rose rock]

dw if i found you you'd be doing a bat rat job :>

[unreal horizon]

I kindly ask you to exit the rat zone

[rose rock]

already did

[unreal horizon]

good, would be a shame if something were to happen to your knees

[rough scarab]

lol

[unreal horizon]

rat attack!

[rose rock]

bold words speaking to someone with a macro to spam the sks

you'd be facing the rat brrrrr machine

also hoping the sks and korund aint found

those were free from a scav run and i really dont wanna be mildly annoyed

[worldly jungle]

a sherpa named whisky tomothey killed me, i gave him an sgc10 after he mag dumped me, i was broken beyond reapir, thank you for ending me

[rose rock]

if its to do mental damage, might as well go full throtle

[crisp nest]

im actually fking done with shaking up teller

died 3 times so far fully kitted

[cunning dragon]

macros in the game are cancer, i know they aren't against TOS yet, but I wouldn't be able to lower myself to that level

[humble mantle]

any newbies want some 1on1 help

[rose rock]

oof, want help?

[crisp nest]

NA and im gonna go sleep now

[rose rock]

oof aite

[humble mantle]

anyone wanna play?

[rose rock]

honestly did it because i didnt have budget for glock 18 and had a glock 17, its mildly convenient with the sks

[crisp nest]

im tired of dying with meta m4s and vectors in dorms

tired of dying to mp7 so ill go use the mp7 in roblox

😔 you know you're sad when it comes to this

[rough scarab]

Is there an escape from tarkov roblox game yet

[crisp nest]

i dunno

theres fake cod so im using the mp7 in it

[rough scarab]

I used to play fake dayz on roblox

Shit was fire

[crisp nest]

same

was it the one where there was a shit ton of dupers

so everyone had a full bank of op shit

[ivory ether]

spawned as a scav with an aks 74 u with a 25k supressor and 13k stock

nice

[rough scarab]

No idea

[crisp nest]

lmao

the fake dayz game i used to play was unbalanced af

there was an lmg that hits u to 4 hp

with bleed

[rough scarab]

Bruh

[crisp nest]

so u die in 1 shot basically

and the dragons breath rounds 1 hit from any range

when they are a shotgun

lol

[rose rock]

yo is m856 worth using?

[crisp nest]

no

[rose rock]

aito yeeting it is

[ivory ether]

351k scav run niiice

managed to tap a player scav on my way to railway exfil

fucker was trying to kill me while i was looting a cache lol

[rose rock]

thats on him missing the shots on a still target lmao

[ivory ether]

true lol

he had m856 on an adar so

[rose rock]

prolly viable since scav usually dont have armor

[ivory ether]

spawned with a paca so it didnt do much

and m856 has pen for t2 armor so

[rose rock]

welp

there it goes going plonk

also i had to text the only dood's dog tag i found, the run in d2 generator has me wondering how the hell that happened lmao

also finally got to do this

also are night vision goggles worth using?

[crisp nest]

what map

[rose rock]

idk, is there any map not worth using?

[crisp nest]

labs xd

[rose rock]

aito, keeps it is

[river cairn]

the skier NVGs are only really helpful if the area is almost pitch black, it is really grainey, the monocular is clearer but limits you FOV much more

[quaint flicker]

NVGs are nice to have but if you have PostFX enabled and a bright enough screen you dont need it for at least close and medium range

[rose rock]

nah i yoinked these from the dead pmc

also thx for the postfx thing

[river cairn]

ahhh the gucci NVGs, yeah those are awesome

[rose rock]

actually im gonna keep them in a corner, dont wanna burn my retina with a scav running a flashlight

now this gave me an idea

4 flashlights nightime raid, nvg chads gonna think theyre looking at god himself

[river cairn]

put 8 flashlights on a gun and use a thermal?

[rose rock]

woah buddy, i aint got a liver to afford the thermal

[torpid copper]

is there settings so i can see people better ? all of it xD

[crisp nest]

postfx

[torpid copper]

can i get the settings to that please

[rose rock]

the ones i use, tho i reccomend you adjusting to your prefference

[main dagger]

anyone lvl 1-15 want to learn the ways of a rat?

[hollow fulcrum]

i would love to become a rat please im level 9

[opal moth]

@crisp nest the roblox dayz game is a throwback damn, shit was so fun

[bold kernel]

Anyone trying to help me do some loot runs with some light pvp. I'm level 17 and only have 1 mill and need some help getting up to 5 mill at least

[cobalt patio]

Im still down if youre still doing it

[crisp nest]

🔥

absolute banger of a game

[rose rock]

bruh i remember playing early roblox as a kid on the pizza rp thing

my cousin when he became manager he'd give everyone so many raises that the next manager was basically facing bankruptcy

that and the rollercoasters

[crisp nest]

oh yeah

that one lmao

[bold kernel]

He was a good manager

[rose rock]

the best manager

i would do that alot too granted

but iirc there wasnt bankrpucy punishment looming

jsut the number going 0 iirc

[bold kernel]

should i sell bitcoin

or wait

to sellit

and when is wipe

[rose rock]

you got it from gunsmith?

[bold kernel]

yup

and should i sell this intelligence i fond

[radiant sable]

I spent money on that 👀

[rose rock]

you got intel center 1? if yes sell it

[radiant sable]

Getting the 3 story house and buying money bags

[rose rock]

i never got anywhere near that lmao

[bold kernel]

my intel center is lvl 1

[rose rock]

then do sell it

[bold kernel]

ok

how about btc

thanks btw

[crisp nest]

sell

[rose rock]

sell it

might tank harder to 250k

if im correct on the prediction

[cedar gust]

is it worth upgrading to left behind from standard?

or no

or standard to prepare for escape? or is it only worth to get EOD

[rose rock]

depends on your budget

[foggy ginkgo]

yo, me and a mate are new to the game and i was wondering if there are any OCE players who would be willing to help us out?

[cedar gust]

i could get prepare for escape

or left behind

but idk if i wanna if it isnt worth it

[rose rock]

well then play the standard, check if the eod's extras are worth the extra

[cedar gust]

ok ty

[rose rock]

check yt videos if it helps

they usually end up saying if they think its worth it or not

[rose rock]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COG3YMiFVxQ the newest one i found

[cedar gust]

thanks

[steel nova]

Offering help, taking beginners or experienced players along for raids. Not just carrying, but actually teaching you, helping loot, kill bosses, so when you'e not with me you can have sucess. Send me a DM if you're interested. NA & EU players welcome

[foggy ginkgo]

haha rip im OCE

[red sparrow]

when should i stop repairing killa armor?

[formal hatch]

Hey man, Im new to the game and just joined the discord. I saw that you were offering to help new players. Any chance you could help teach me a few things?

[ember pendant]

I stop around 45 and retire it / save for sniping with it.

[quaint flicker]

around 60% with almost all armors is a good point

*60% of the original durability

[graceful nova]

Do fractures count as broken limbs in jager quest?

[turbid magnet]

Yes

[bleak barn]

is it worth it

[graceful nova]

@turbid magnet Ive kill 4 people and had both my arms fractures and it didnt count

Have to be headshot nvm i got it

[main dagger]

anyone lvl 1-15 want to learn the ways of a rat?

[naive depot]

step 1: m9a3

[graceful nova]

Step 2: Avoid All possible contact other then scavs.

[bronze laurel]

step 3: know the map. This is the most important one imo. Cause when you got step 3 down it's much easier to do step 2

[bright ledge]

So. I just joined a server as a PMC and like. for no reason I just lost connection and I've tried rejoining twice and lost connection for no reason. Is my PMC just fucked?

[bronze laurel]

probably yea

[bright ledge]

Nice

[bronze laurel]

does it still tell you to reconnect to raid?

[bright ledge]

I just lost connection again so let me see

Yep

says I disconnected. Which is just. Not correct

[bronze laurel]

yea it will say that for any reason of you loosing connection. But aslong as "reconnect to raid" is still there your pmc should be alive

[graceful nova]

@bright ledge That's basically tarkov in a nutshell, you have those garbage moments but stick with it for the better moments

[bright ledge]

I mean I didn't have that much. just a pump action and a makrov and basic armor/supplys

but still. The first time I try to play PMC tonight and this happens. Bruh

[bronze laurel]

gotta keep in mind that dc happens in other games also. but it just stings more in tarkov cause you loose stuff

[bright ledge]

Yeah I get that but like, I would wish atleast a random DC that is out of my control dosn't send my items to the shadow realm :/ I do get that its a thing that people will abuse connection lost stuff, but like, I legit dunno what happend with this. I don't even have a high ping (which I know gets you kicked)

Plus like it seems iffy becuase I can't even join now. But, I'ma try again

[graceful nova]

Trust me.

Ik how you feel i play on hotspot and im level 27 And I DC sometims but it not alaways.

Just tip of advice

If ur lagging dont just hit disconnect and leave the game close and reopen it when ur in safe spot cause then it just kills u

and alaways try to reconnect and just let it load

dont exit

[bronze laurel]

This. hitting disconnect actually throws you out of the raid. instead alt + f4

[graceful nova]

yeah that pretty much what i meant

lmao

ty for rewording it better

[bronze laurel]

any new (or less new) people around that need help with a quest or something? happy to join for a raid or 2

[bright ledge]

I got the PMC out. whoo

[open jay]

simple question i think... what is ergo?

[spiral crypt]

@open jay how fast you ads

"weapon handling"

[open jay]

thats the only stat ?

ads speed basically?

[graceful nova]

@bronze laurel You down for reshella hunting

[spiral crypt]

pretty much the main one im not sure if it affect other stuff maybe how fast you switch to it or weapon sway?

but i know for sure how fast you ads

[open jay]

gotcha

recoil is still a more important stat than ergo right

[spiral crypt]

depends

i finda nice balance of something like 55 ergo and 60-80 recoil is the best

unless your running like mpx or something then obvi its gonna be like 25 recoil with 60 ergo

all modded out that is

base wont be as good

aks and stuff , even the fal youd be lucky to get 60 ergo with 70 recoil

fal especially lol

that puppy kicks

[open jay]

ak101 - 52 ergo, 55 vert, 162 hori (20k more)
mdr - 64 ergo, 61 vert, 169 hori

[spiral crypt]

nice

[open jay]

wasnt sure which is better

[spiral crypt]

at that point its what ever gun you want

and like more

762 51 mdr?

i would go with the mdr all day if it is

[open jay]

5.56

[spiral crypt]

oof i dont like that round at all really

not in this game 😛

[open jay]

really?

isnt 5.56 45 meta?

[spiral crypt]

it always seems to let me down

yeah hk m4 low recoilk

but id rather run a 762 x 39 bp akm all day

i tend to do better with them

and there in lies my point of personal preference

[bold kernel]

me who cant afford any good bullets

[open jay]

gotcha gotcha

im just a recoil junkie because

well i kinda suck at controlling recoil

[spiral crypt]

plus those 556 bullets are expensive

your character has a skill that will level up to help recoil control

[open jay]

and i figure theres no point in going 7.62 since i cant control the recoil

[spiral crypt]

also build your shooting range and practice.

[open jay]

that skill is pretty tiny though no?

[spiral crypt]

start off by stutter firing one - three shots

then after that third shot if you unload, there wont be as much recoil , then just slowly move your mouse with the recoil

not sure..

but any skill helping no matter how small is better than nothing

try my tactic tho

just fire one bullet three times but with gun set to full auto

then after the third shot , if you spray the recoil wont be as crazy

idk why its something in the game code or what have you

but i find that it helps

[open jay]

hmm ill take a look thats definitely interesting

tyty

[spiral crypt]

np

[light scarab]

I need help

Am I weird for collecting spruts with shit tons of lasers and flashlights on them

https://gyazo.com/d1652783d15375f9e3690d48a60a93ad?token=cb2b0f56891b8c081733823a9111dda9

[bleak barn]

thats so me lol

but recenty i ran out of space so i sold half of em

[bleak barn]

btw anyone?

[light scarab]

I'd imagine it's worth it if you're going for Kappa

[bleak barn]

oh so its just for kappa i see

thx

[tough gull]

What's the cheapest card?

[modest pagoda]

task manager better

[tough gull]

actually, is it even reasonable to grind Kappa as a new player before the next wipe?

[small cairn]

Depends on how you mean reasonable, I started 2 months ago and just got kappa yesterday, but I did because I wanted to "complete" tarkov

as for if it has any real uses, sure, but epsilon/gamma is just fine

[silver hornet]

AKM
🤮

[silver hornet]

Kappa is helpful for strength-training/carrying emergency stims/more ammo

[bronze island]

the .366 akm is better

[silver hornet]

If you have Gamma, there is only one use for Epsilon, and that is farming strength with a tank battery

[small cairn]

and with the time you spend on getting kappa, you can just spend on getting money can carry stims in pockets

Its not that it is useless, but I wouldn't say it is needed

[silver hornet]

I wouldn't put an eTg in my pockets

[small cairn]

you can easily play this game without it

[silver hornet]

AK-103 gang

[bronze island]

cap that gun is trash

[silver hornet]

yeah Kappa certainly isn't needed, it's just something to work towards

[small cairn]

if you took all that time you spent on farming kappa and just farmed money, u 100% can afford losing 40-60k

[bronze island]

stock sks or .366 akm is the way to go

[silver hornet]

literally uses a round designed to circumvent Russia's gun laws

that sounds like cap to me bud

[tough gull]

It's more about completion and having a clear objective in the distance

[bronze island]

yeah but this is tarkov

[silver hornet]

does not dismiss my point

[bronze island]

ok look i see your point

it is indeed a good one

but nothing is better than 366

[silver hornet]

except idk 7.62x39 BP full auto in a gun with sub-60 recoil

[small cairn]

.366 as in ap?

[bronze island]

yep

[silver hornet]

.366 AP isn't even a real round lul

[small cairn]

0.366 as in the ammo, that at best pens tier 4

[bronze island]

its so good they cant re create it irl

[bronze island]

i didnt know you needed to pen to kill ?

[small cairn]

Ironic or serious?

[bronze island]

well i know its a thing

but im not worried about it

[small cairn]

you should be...because that is how you kill people with armor

haven't you ever wondered, how you shot a guy in the thorax and he didn't die?

[bronze island]

nah they have blunt force in the game dont htey ?

[small cairn]

Its minor dmg

there is a reason ammo with high pen is expensive

because it kills people that wear h-grids and slicks

[silver hornet]

blunt damage don't kill shit in this game anymore lol

[bronze island]

they changed it ?

[silver hornet]

M61 is arguably one of the best rounds in the game atm (SNB would be up there too if it were in better guns)

[bronze island]

see yall are too worried about what you shoot

ill throw at rock at someone as long as it does some dmg im good

[small cairn]

You should be more worried about what you shoot, rather than what you shoot with

[bronze island]

cause ik there are more cheap rocks

[small cairn]

if you shoot a feather with a rocket laucher, it will do less than a slingshot with a bullet

[bronze island]

who i said i was worried about what i shoot with ? LMAO

im shooting feathers with slingshots bud

[small cairn]

"AKM and SKS best weapons"

[bronze island]

they are ?

[small cairn]

for their value

[silver hornet]

SKS
good

[bronze island]

the sks is cracked LMAO

[tough gull]

Good for its price

[bronze island]

and its only 10k

[small cairn]

10 k

I wish

[silver hornet]

imagine not using a meta AK-103

couldn't be me

[bronze island]

my fault 13

and i mean tbh you could just use it as it

[small cairn]

thats what I do, ironsight sks

for first 40 lvls

or did rather

[silver hornet]

I'm using only AKs next wipe

I want AK mastery level 3

[small cairn]

Mac and cheese ftw

[bronze island]

oh so now your rich and your hating on the same thing that carried you so far ???

[small cairn]

You are saying it is the most godly thing

its not, it is cheap and effective

but not superior

[bronze island]

superior to what ?

[small cairn]

meta guns

[bronze island]

bruh meta guns are ugly anyways we arent worried about them

i think as long as your confident you should be able to win you should be able to win

now tarkov may beg to differ

[silver hornet]

Meta AK-103
ugly
cap

[bronze island]

no cap

maybe a liuttle cap

[silver hornet]

sounds like you're mad that you can't afford meta guns

[bronze island]

LMAO

bruh im telling you i dont like them

[tough gull]

What's "cap" in this context?

[small cairn]

There is a reason a meta gun is a meta gun, I'm not saying you can't kill people with an sks, but that you will kill less and more unreliably

[bronze island]

lies

[silver hornet]

not denying that the SKS is a good gun for it's cost

it's certainly good early wipe

[tough gull]

is that some youth word or something I'm too old to know lol

[silver hornet]

but I wouldn't run it when you have better options available

[small cairn]

Earlygame at any point probably

[bronze island]

yes

[tough gull]

I just got used to yeet

[bronze island]

LMAO

[small cairn]

[bronze island]

all im saying is yall gotta hop on the .366 train

[tough gull]

but it has poorer velocity than 545, 556 or 762

[bronze island]

why does that matter tho ?

[silver hornet]

no

[tough gull]

gotta be fast as fuck boi

sanic speeds

[silver hornet]

.366 is ass

unless I'm using it for Tarkov Shooter pt 3

[bronze island]

your just ass with it

[tough gull]

also that in my case

[small cairn]

It literally has no meta ammo

[tough gull]

i can barely hit an immobile target at 50m

[bronze island]

what do you mean ?

[silver hornet]

.366 AP is good but I wouldn't call it meta

[bronze island]

what do you classify as meta tho ?

[small cairn]

Meta ammo is ammo that has high pen and do reasonable dmg, like 5a1, 995, m61 and more

[silver hornet]

any gun you can use .366 AP in, has much better alternatives

[bronze island]

how much does stuff like that cost though ?

[bronze island]

idkkk

[small cairn]

Why do you think it costs so much

[silver hornet]

VPO-215 with .366 AP? use an SV-98 with SNB

not that expensive

[bronze island]

i would say the vpo is better in certain situations tho

[silver hornet]

... like what

[bronze island]

shooting

sv is booboo

[silver hornet]

what

[bronze island]

dont worry about it

we are getting of topic

.366 is still a great ammunition of choice

i might even say

one of the best

[silver hornet]

bet that's why everyone uses VPO-209 in labs

[torpid fractal]

im new and im looking for a tour through woods and reserves

[bronze island]

why would you use a vpo on labs ?

[small cairn]

[silver hornet]

well it's one of the best rounds in the game
