[upbeat lava]

doesnt matter what it is without the mag are you planning on throwing the m4 at someones head? no, are you planning on shootingwithout bullets?

[pure mist]

people usually don't count mag in because some might use 30 rounders

or different 60 rounders

[small cairn]

Befote u start talking to much. There is a ergo bug rn, which allows u to have the ergo as if u didnt have the mag in

[somber portal]

Build a higher one with the mag5 in then with 40 recoil 🙂

[upbeat lava]

@small cairn its getting patched soon

[small cairn]

Just like wipe

[upbeat lava]

I think they already patched it with 12.10

[thorny phoenix]

shooter part 1 in progress

[small cairn]

[pure mist]

why use that bolty

[thorny phoenix]

im using the cheapest one

[pure mist]

mosin instead?

[thorny phoenix]

its only 40 meters

[pure mist]

that ammo is just

[dry belfry]

Isn't it scav headshots?

[thorny phoenix]

nop, just kills on 40 meters

[somber portal]

366 AP OP

[pure mist]

i would just go mosin lps

[small cairn]

366 ap works just fine for scavs

[dry belfry]

I think that will do you just fine

[thorny phoenix]

its not even AP lmao

[worldly python]

Jaeger's quests are the worst

Although

[thorny phoenix]

im still not finished with finding food in raid

[pure mist]

everything ok til tarkov shooter part 8

[worldly python]

Not as bad as Ragman's because fuck playing on interchange

[thorny phoenix]

they dont exist at all

[pure mist]

oh yea, ragman quests is a nightmare

[worldly python]

Tushonkas?

[thorny phoenix]

crotons and delicous stew

i get at least 2 tushonkas every raid im in

[pure mist]

i think he means the croutons one

[worldly python]

If so go to sawmill and check cabins and check scav shack, check ration supply crates at stronghold in customs

[thorny phoenix]

how much is 40 meters?

like, approx

[worldly python]

I call the cans of delicious beef stew tushonkas

[pure mist]

quite close

[worldly python]

like in game? pretty close

[cosmic tinsel]

green most fun room imo

[pure mist]

can of beef stew is tushonkas

[worldly python]

idk imagine them being about 150 feet away

There are 2 tushonkas

[pure mist]

can of delicious beef stew is not tushonkas

[worldly python]

Small and Large

[unreal horizon]

idk if that helps

[worldly python]

You can craft the large one by using the small one and a can of squash

[thorny phoenix]

that helps a bit

[reef spoke]

If you like grids, those are set to 100m +/- 1m

[worldly python]

go to scav house and camp on the rock looking towards it. You can find up to 5 scavs there.

[dry belfry]

Tower, did you see we were friends in Tarkov

bffs

[reef spoke]

Yee , I saw , we should go on a picnic some time ♡

[pure mist]

i would just go for saw mill and try to kill shturman

easy kill and make money

idk why shturman is extremely easy

[worldly python]

hes running non-ap 366 and iron sights lol

[dry belfry]

[pure mist]

that's why i recommend mosin

don't even need a scope

[worldly python]

I need to start playing solo and learning more pvp but man it's scary playing solo

[dry belfry]

Solo best. No one to share loot with

[worldly python]

and pvp is hard to get back into

[reef spoke]

They nerfed him into the ground because everyone was having a hard time with him .

He used to start shooting at you if you were within 150m of him 200 if you were stationary in his LOS for too long.

Now hes a potatoe.

[thorny phoenix]

7 grenades at big red damn

[worldly python]

I lost a thermal, slick and gigachads last night lol

[pure mist]

true

[reef spoke]

I miss old sturman

[thorny phoenix]

disconnected cause of ping

[pure mist]

i kill him for his key easy 130k

[worldly python]

or you get RR

[pure mist]

rarely tho

[worldly python]

I got that a few days ago

Ez 5M

[reef spoke]

Yee, I'd like to see the scav bosses actually be hugely difficult to kill. Like frustratingly so.

Not " scavs+"

[pure mist]

idk why people buy that on flea it's 1.4 mil barter with jaeger

[small cairn]

scavs**2

[small cairn]

Jesus

[worldly python]

Sanitar and Killa are just immortal for me it feels like 99% of the time

Like they just EAT shots

[steep sky]

Anybody know what i could use for a gun if im level 13?

[pure mist]

killa you have to use m61 or 995 to tap head

otherwise dump the mag on him

[thorny phoenix]

lets go

[pure mist]

sanitar actually not hard his guards hard

[dry belfry]

I'd like to see scav bosses be triggered or accessed reliably, like some sort of dungeon boss. Maybe a keycard to get to Gluhar's dormitory or a locked gate on woods that leads to a large area where shturman can be. I think that way you can justify them being ridiculosly difficult.

[reef spoke]

Sani when he pops all his pills has about 2500 HP iirc

[worldly python]

Yeah. Sanitar took several mags of SPP and ended up bleeding out to a headshot.

[dry belfry]

I'd feel bad if we decided to buff Shturman and every little timmy trying to get Jager's note gets blasted from 300m

[pure mist]

lmao

farming him now it's viable but spawn chance too low

[reef spoke]

That's a cool idea . Have like a " distress" signal you need to activate to get sturman to spawn and come try to save his bios.

[worldly python]

sounds right, but fuck sanitar

[unreal horizon]

give him a mortar

[worldly python]

He's not as bad as ambushing cultists but he ain't much better

[cosmic tinsel]

sani is scary with BPP. any mistakes you're instadead

well, twotap dead

[coral tiger]

I have a love hate relationship with sanitar I've killed him once with a hunter and 366ap

[worldly python]

Oh yeah

[pure mist]

been hold on this quest for a while now, prob have to get a squad in interchange for me to do this

last time i try this solo i got blew up by a grenade launcher

[reef spoke]

That hurt my brain to read.

once
two different weapons

[unreal horizon]

my first sani kill was when i was like lvl 10 running around on shore with a vpo215

[small cairn]

I have never met or killed sani

[worldly python]

I'm down to do this later tonight, I'm on the same quest

[dry belfry]

My squad killed him once, he didn't have much worth anything on him

[pure mist]

i def need a 4 man to do this

it's hell around kiba

[coral tiger]

Was that to me haha

[pure mist]

his guards can have altyn

[cosmic tinsel]

oh i killed sani yesterday after finding nobody to shoot me while lighthousing, btw

[pure mist]

check melee for taiga

[thorny phoenix]

what is lighthousing?

[reef spoke]

Yee, I got it but it was weird in my noggin for a second

[cosmic tinsel]

put 8 flashlights on an mpx, stood on top of shoreline lighthouse, spun in circles while slowly shooting

[reef spoke]

" ..but the hunter doesn't use. 366...."

[sage heath]

how do I be a chad

[thorny phoenix]

and this kind of thing has its own name damn

[coral tiger]

I mean it is it not a hunter tko or some shit 😂😂

[pure mist]

start murdering pmcs

[cosmic tinsel]

nah, its something mike invented as a way to be silly and give people giggles

[small cairn]

[reef spoke]

Learn the game , become bored and stop caring about death.

3 easy steps

[sage heath]

how do I make myself do tasks even though it could wipe any day now

[cosmic tinsel]

prefiring and pointfiring really improved my results as well

[unreal horizon]

it would be unwise to trade for a blue correct? ik blue isnt as good but I have better odds of finding green than blue

[pure mist]

think about if you do it once this time next time would be a lot faster

you get have max traders faster

[small cairn]

Clear quest (kappa), get money (approx 100 m), get bored of game, force yourself into spending all your money before you quit. My tarkov experience.

[sage heath]

kappa impossible

[pure mist]

it just takes time

[sage heath]

dont u need all the twitch items

[pure mist]

no quest in tarkov is impossible

[cosmic tinsel]

you're gonna have to pay for one or the other, i personally would keep the one thats more fun and use it, but your choice

[reef spoke]

There are very few actual Chad.

Lot of wanna be Chad's though.

[sage heath]

do u have to finish shooter born in heaven for kappa?

[unreal horizon]

yes

[reef spoke]

SBIH isn't as hard as folk make it out to be.

[pure mist]

yes you get them a lot in safes n shit, when you got all your quest done you prob already have all the items

[pure mist]

just camping that's all

a little boring

[reef spoke]

I'm 1/3rd finished with a toz for SBIH

[unreal horizon]

yeah that makes sense, is green more profit on average? from what I can see blue doesnt have much

[sage heath]

do i have to finish punisher?

[pure mist]

green is extremely profitable

[unreal horizon]

yes

[pure mist]

yes

[sage heath]

nvm then

:/

[pure mist]

it's not that hard

[sage heath]

by the time I finish all of that

its wiping

[unreal horizon]

you practically need to do every quest

[sage heath]

punisher and shooter born in heavens are hardest

im passing on kappa :/

[pure mist]

punisher hard?

[reef spoke]

a lot of the reason people camp for SBIH is simply because they don't look far enough ahead of themselves.

For many folks if it's not under 60M it goes unnoticed

And good forbid an elevation change. No one looks up

[dry belfry]

Why would we use our eyes if our scopes aren't real

[unreal horizon]

verticallity beats chads 100% of the time

[sage heath]

both shooter born in heaven and punisher are hard

dont even know how u get a shooter born in heaven on customs

[unreal horizon]

river

easy

[cosmic tinsel]

across river, into crack house, into dorms

across new gas

[sage heath]

dorms for shooter born in heaven?

eh

[unreal horizon]

plenty of spots if you actually look

[unreal horizon]

spray AGS

[reef spoke]

Usec stash to shortcut is my go to

[sage heath]

prob just gonna go fortress

[unreal horizon]

counts as headshot

[cosmic tinsel]

INTO. you lay on the construction on the other side of the road and look at the outside stairs

[dry belfry]

On top of skele looking at new gas

[sage heath]

ok

[cosmic tinsel]

i did this with a bait bag 😄

[thorny phoenix]

i can tuse this fucking gun with iron sights for shit wow

[sage heath]

its gonna take a while

a really long time

[unreal horizon]

duh thats sbih

[pure mist]

you can camp big red from a cross the river early wipe

[dry belfry]

lol

[pure mist]

people doing delivery from the past

[somber portal]

I did big red to RUAF, Main bridge to RUAF, and dorms to construction this wipe

[unreal horizon]

like the hard quest in the hard game is hard?????

[thorny phoenix]

which bolty has non aids iron sights?

[reef spoke]

bridge to smugglers
:^ )

Train to bronze pocket watch

[dry belfry]

idk i saw someone on reddit do all three in one raid

[somber portal]

one person of how many that play tarkov? 😉

[dry belfry]

1 out of like 43 probably

[unreal horizon]

I reckon at least 3 people play tarkov

[small cairn]

I would estimate 2 or above, 1 is mike and the other is mikes victim

[unreal horizon]

victims*

[dry belfry]

Mike do be out here doing the Tarkov population dirty

You should put dirty as a pre-fix to your name

[small cairn]

Mike is the one that makes people uninstall

[unreal horizon]

tried to change my name to UlachWontHelp but its taken

[dry belfry]

I always look for Mike now when I go 21ws

[unreal horizon]

in my crusade against helmets

[thorny phoenix]

ok ill switch to mosin this raid

[dry belfry]

lmao

[small cairn]

Is "extractn't" taken?

[dry belfry]

lmao

[reef spoke]

I've got a lot of the custom SBIH clipped , VSS is hella fun for urban sniping

[thorny phoenix]

i couldnt kill a pmc that was literally crawling from being overweight thats a fucking shame on me

[unreal horizon]

SHIT thats really good

[cosmic tinsel]

holy shit

[unreal horizon]

that is really good

im booting up game now

[small cairn]

[edgy tinsel]

Cheapest, but best 9x19 ammo?

[reef spoke]

PST

[unreal horizon]

there is not cheap = best, use PST or 6.3

[dry belfry]

cheapest
best

[reef spoke]

what is an oxymoron

[edgy tinsel]

The best bang for my buck

[dry belfry]

lmfso

[unreal horizon]

prob 6.3 imo

[dry belfry]

laugh my fuckin socks off

[cosmic tinsel]

agreed

[reef spoke]

Cost effective is a good qualifier

6.3 falls in there x as does PST

[dry belfry]

Cost effective is our specialty here

We love our M80 and PS ammo

[unreal horizon]

' is invalid sadge

[cosmic tinsel]

m80 yes, ps no

[small cairn]

noo

[unreal horizon]

day ruined

[reef spoke]

I mean , if you only shoot 2 or 3 rounds of 993 at a dude its cost effective

just aim better bro

[dry belfry]

git gud

[small cairn]

You can try: Unextracted

[dry belfry]

PS has v similar stats to 856a1 for 81 roubles per round

[reef spoke]

I've been cucked by arm hit boxes a lot recently

[dry belfry]

I will die on this hill

[small cairn]

or like: Extract dealer

[unreal horizon]

it doesn't have the same ring

extractn't is literally the greatest idea ever

[small cairn]

yw_4_extract

[small cairn]

[reef spoke]

Expidited-Extract

[small cairn]

a little right

[unreal horizon]

unfortunately yes

[dry belfry]

ty_4_bein_dumb

[small cairn]

tarkov doesn't allow the use of other letters than their default one, right?

[unreal horizon]

get_camped_shitlord it too many characters I think

[unreal horizon]

I dont think so? haven't tried tbh

[thorny phoenix]

oh boy 4 nades at me from some chad

how come is everyone a grenade launcher

half of rig filled with grenades

[dry belfry]

I identify as a grenade launcher

[reef spoke]

Cus needs are cheap

Nades*

[small cairn]

cuz nades are really good

[reef spoke]

Unironically I think nades should be barter only , with a value of about 80k each

[small cairn]

Ban explosives

[unreal horizon]

I think thats extreme but I could get behind 2 per restock

[dry belfry]

Trigger warning

Add claymores

[reef spoke]

The extreme is because of Fleamarker

Market*

[reef spoke]

Soon

[unreal horizon]

ah you're right

tm

[dry belfry]

Yea wipe is tmrw

[small cairn]

Wipe is rn, cuz I'm shit

[dry belfry]

Lol

[reef spoke]

Were getting the mini claymores iirc. Think BF4

[unreal horizon]

everyone wipe ur acc right now

[small cairn]

[keen adder]

Im US and in beginners vc 2 if anyone can help

[unreal horizon]

I wonder how they'll balance that

[reef spoke]

They shouldn't

[cosmic tinsel]

they wont

[dry belfry]

You missed the guy lose his mind the other week after we talked about it

[unreal horizon]

Like i'm gonna exit camp d-2 with a claymore on paper it seems really OP

[reef spoke]

Literally require a trip wire to arm and set

[dry belfry]

Visible tripwire and ability to disarm

[reef spoke]

Takes time to set up etc etc

[dry belfry]

ggwp

Balance

[reef spoke]

Yee

[cosmic tinsel]

nikita is on the record as not believing in balance, really

[unreal horizon]

true

[cosmic trail]

Do we know when wipe is?

[small cairn]

yeah, thursday

[unreal horizon]

thursday

[small cairn]

all of them

[cosmic tinsel]

hes real fired up about getting bodied when you least expect it

[dry belfry]

I heard it was Sunday?

[cosmic trail]

Sweeeeet I can finally have a chance at playing the game

[small cairn]

nah, it's every thursday

[unreal horizon]

I need to make a bind that just types "thursday"

[small cairn]

(it's not in case u missed our sarcasm)

[sour plume]

it's a week from the next time you get pinged by accident

[dry belfry]

That's weird, I heard we're getting Streets on Friday, wipe on Tuesday, Lighthouse in 3 fortnights

[dry belfry]

I love when that happens

[cosmic trail]

Oh

[unreal horizon]

the unannounced wipe is unannounced, we dont know when it is despite some suspicion

[thorny phoenix]

as much as i respsect pestily's work and i like him as a person, i cant watch his videos for some reason

[oblique marlin]

yea

[reef spoke]

My completely unsupported guess based on mutterings and yammering is next month

Late next month

[unreal horizon]

June tm

[cosmic tinsel]

hes not as charismatic as some of the other guys, but his work is top notch

[unreal horizon]

Nikita saying "wipe isnt planned soon" reinforces my opinion that it's June

[thorny phoenix]

its not even about charisma, his accent makes it hard to watch

[sour plume]

it would be a very strange business decision to do it next month

[thorny phoenix]

on the other hand i could listen to jessekazam all day

[sour plume]

or rather, late next month

[cosmic tinsel]

weirder than doing it on xmas eve?

[cosmic trail]

Anyone who knows what there doing wanna do a few runs?

[dry belfry]

Should I make YouTube videos?

[unreal horizon]

no

[sour plume]

xmas eve makes so much sense, the day before a bunch of people suddenly have a bunch of money

[dry belfry]

It'll be about our daily adventures in Beginner's Assistance

[unreal horizon]

[small cairn]

Man I could compile my best 25 advices and it would be me answering questions like: "How do you get skier rep?" "Well you do quests that give skier rep"

[thorny phoenix]

woods for 40m scav kills?

[sour plume]

but late next month is likely to be when the next tier of retail WoW launched that people have been waiting for months upon months for

not to say that every eft player plays wow but for anyone it's possible and there's a guarantee that the content split will pull a lot of people away from tarkov

[small cairn]

if you got bad aim, mosin with 7n1

[cosmic tinsel]

i'd guess the overlap between wow and tarkov is like, 3 people

[small cairn]

it lets you thorax scavs

[dry belfry]

this

[cosmic tinsel]

and given that you care, you're probably one of them lol

[unreal horizon]

I don't think that's incredibly relevant, personally

[sour plume]

nah i dont play tarkov anymore

[cosmic tinsel]

https://tenor.com/view/john-travolta-well-where-is-it-looking-for-something-gif-5291661

[dry belfry]

Lmao

Can we ban him

[cosmic tinsel]

this... this is a tarkov discord...?

[unreal horizon]

I cant wait for wipe I want to run around with my ppsh like a little demon

[dry belfry]

@dry belfry ban him pls

[bold kernel]

[vivid ember]

dont step on a mine

[dry belfry]

I just spit my drink out on my desk

lmao

[bold kernel]

whenever you see a mine sign, don't go forward

its good advice

[vivid ember]

go forward

[thorny phoenix]

understood

[bold kernel]

no no dont

[vivid ember]

save yourself

[bold kernel]

you die

wait

yes

[vivid ember]

save yourself

[thorny phoenix]

are mines randomly on the map, or just alongside the edge?

[bold kernel]

keep going its how you escape tarkov

[vivid ember]

on the edge mostly

theres a small minefeild near the usec camp on sandy ground

dont step there

[urban mason]

I went on a raid with a random scav, that miraculously didnt kill me, and they walked into the mine field and died 😦

[vapid oracle]

Forrest is so confusing to navigate

[thorny phoenix]

damn amount of scavs on this map seems huge

[vivid ember]

but if you avoid the mine signs youll be ok

[vapid oracle]

I keep getting lost finding the usec camp

[vivid ember]

yeah there's a lot of scavs but they arent that hard to kill

[urban mason]

Weird thing was is that it took 4 mines to kill them.

[bold kernel]

nah bro not too many on woods honestly, if you go through a certain path you can easily not see anyone

[vivid ember]

but be prepared if you kill one another's gonna come check it out, at least for me

[bold kernel]

like anything

[vivid ember]

yeah i took a scav killing route and didnt meet a single pmc in like 5 raids

[thorny phoenix]

i hope 10 scavs come out actually

[urban mason]

Woods is weird it feels like you can die randomly at any time from who knows where

[vivid ember]

woods is relaxing for me

[urban mason]

but also never see anything

[vivid ember]

until you step on a mine

[urban mason]

and just chill looting

[vapid oracle]

I really dislike woods

[thorny phoenix]

ukrainian server are a blessing sometimes

[vapid oracle]

it's just difficult to navigate for me

[dry belfry]

If you want PMC kills on Woods, camp lumber

Ez

[vivid ember]

woods was painfull starting out but i got the hang of it when i was killing 15 scavs

[urban mason]

It is really hard 😦

[bold kernel]

honestly woods SMG is amazing

cause no one expects it

[thorny phoenix]

i didint touch that quest once yet

[bold kernel]

i love it with Green tracer

[vivid ember]

its not hard at all

[thorny phoenix]

now im about to do this and the jaeger 40 m kills

[unreal horizon]

I genuinely don't understand how people cant navigate woods, i've never had a problem with it. that being said I think the map sucks and old woods was better

[urban mason]

Im sure it isnt that hard. I'm just pretty bad.

[dry belfry]

So are we, don't worry.

[unreal horizon]

i dont have any irl experience navigating or anything but idk, just never struggled with the maps

[dry belfry]

Yeah? N/S Reserve?

[unreal horizon]

dome north i dont give a fuck

idc

[dry belfry]

Lewis and Clark over here can't even find the north star

[urban mason]

I am perhaps the most lost person to exist.

[unreal horizon]

*south star, given that dome is north

[dry belfry]

Triggered

[urban mason]

If you have seen one piece I'd be Zoro tier.

[vivid ember]

i basically took this route around the edge and got like 4 or so scav kills per raid, not a single pmc

little circles are spots with scavs

and loot

it worked well for me idk about you

dont see lots of people around the edge. i mostly stuck to the left tho

[urban mason]

how much of the staches do you get

[vivid ember]

well i dont know any stashes lol i just know that one

[urban mason]

i heard theres like a bunch of hidden staches with loot

[vivid ember]

huh

[bold kernel]

igenuie

wait no

mapgenuie

[vivid ember]

i guess you can hit the stashes around the edge for more loot too

[bold kernel]

it shows you every single stash there is

its amazing

use that

[urban mason]

it may be a better idea to make a route that hits them up too

[vivid ember]

yeah

[thorny phoenix]

im ready i think

[vivid ember]

ye

I never saw any PMC's this route so you should be ok.

ukrainian servers are not always a blessing tho, im not able to get into the game

[sage heath]

luckily I have prapor lvl 3

hehe rat time

[small cairn]

[unreal horizon]

the barter for prap 2 is kinda ridiculous, its like 20k iirc

but worse spread

[small cairn]

but it looks ugly

[unreal horizon]

true

[sage heath]

shrap 10 is op

[vapid oracle]

is there someone that can help direct me to the usec camp

[cosmic tinsel]

wait until you hear about shrap 25

[unreal horizon]

25 is better tbh

[vapid oracle]

as I try to do a no loadout run

[sage heath]

O

[unreal horizon]

there's no reason not to use 25

[vapid oracle]

I just wanna finish the dum quest

[sage heath]

guess Im using shrap 25

[unreal horizon]

use the maps a few msgs up

[sage heath]

how much better is it from shrap 10?

[urban mason]

is there a shrap 40

[unreal horizon]

I found it with a map and im dumb as fuck you'll be fine

[cosmic tinsel]

it one shots with the same amount of pellets but has a tighter cone so you can do it at longer range

[cosmic tinsel]

no. only 10 and 25

[unreal horizon]

barricade

[cosmic tinsel]

[sage heath]

do i aim for legs?

[unreal horizon]

I top load a barricade so I dont kill any hatchlings by accident

want to make sure i cripple them

[cosmic tinsel]

yep!

[sage heath]

what armor can it pen?

[cosmic tinsel]

none

[unreal horizon]

nothing

[sage heath]

damn

one shot will black both legs

lmao

[unreal horizon]

no leg armor though

[cosmic tinsel]

no

it will kill the pmc

[unreal horizon]

one shot will kill

[sage heath]

LMAOO

[cosmic tinsel]

not just the legs

[unreal horizon]

if 6/8 pellets hit

[sage heath]

holy shit

[small cairn]

Teammate prones infront of legs

[cosmic tinsel]

you can use 2 shots of magnum buck to the legs too, if you want a semi auto option

[cosmic tinsel]

this man is a genius

[sage heath]

I hate star rounds

[unreal horizon]

swag fuck kills 2 shots 60% accuracy

i almost have a full ammo box of stars i need 7 more slots

[urban mason]

make barricade out of your team

[cosmic tinsel]

pls dont use that word it activates mike

[sage heath]

Is shrap 25 expensive from flea?

[unreal horizon]

think of the most evil things you can do in this game, thats how i play daily

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

but cheap from prapor

[sage heath]

jesus christ

[dry belfry]

I want to sponsor you in my youtube videos

[pure mist]

shrap 10?

[sage heath]

shrap 25

[vapid oracle]

guys where am I?

I finished a sub quest

[cosmic tinsel]

even more expensive bc its a noob trap lol

[pure mist]

usec camp on woods

[unreal horizon]

I am considering making a video showing how to properly clear d-2 for campers, to cleanse my soul ya know?

[vapid oracle]

for the third gun dude quest

[dry belfry]

About to die from mines

[vivid ember]

go to the right

[cosmic tinsel]

[vivid ember]

onto the sand

[cosmic tinsel]

dont go to the right

[dry belfry]

You should

[sage heath]

u need max prapor for shrap 25?

[vapid oracle]

did I finish the prapor quest by being her?

[unreal horizon]

3 i think

[vapid oracle]

here

or do I have to visit the other place as well

[cosmic tinsel]

you need to go to his cars too

the convoy

[dry belfry]

You just have to grab the last quest item down to the right, in the sand

[cosmic tinsel]

this is the usec camp that you're at, be careful you're near mines

[sage heath]

first time hearing about shrap 25

lmao

[pure mist]

shrap 10 is level 2

[cosmic tinsel]

guys dont fuckin meme this guy

hes trying

[unreal horizon]

3 unless it was changed mid wipe

[dry belfry]

ok sorry

[cosmic tinsel]

we meme each other not noobs

[sage heath]

its not

[unreal horizon]

oh shit lmao

[sage heath]

I dont think

[vivid ember]

you're doing the convoy quest, right?

[dry belfry]

It was in poor taste

[cosmic tinsel]

be very careful about mines, refer to the map to avoid them

[sage heath]

damn

[cosmic tinsel]

you werent the only one lol

[thorny phoenix]

i waited around 16 minutes and stopped matching 3 times to get into a woods game, wish me luck now

[sage heath]

if shrap 10 is level 2

shrap 25 should be level 3

[small cairn]

hexgrid, altyn, PM(t) with 84 rounder of sp7, now go and blackout every leg and leave.

[vivid ember]

if you checked discovering the usec camp you need to go to prapors convoy

[unreal horizon]

aren't both of those statements correct?

[sage heath]

holy shit

[cosmic tinsel]

shrap 25 is level 3

[sage heath]

that is so broken

[vivid ember]

i assume you're next to the minefeild so just go through th two big lakes and hit the convoy, then extract

[unreal horizon]

hmm where did the 80 go?

[sage heath]

thats so fucking broken

lmaoaoaoaao

[unreal horizon]

go camp somewhere and just roll people its fucking hilarious

[cosmic tinsel]

wat

[unreal horizon]

299920 bc I just bought 80

[cosmic tinsel]

LOL

[unreal horizon]

first

[vapid oracle]

I fucking got to convoy

then disconnected

jesus this is annoying

[thorny phoenix]

im too smart for this

[sage heath]

uh

[unreal horizon]

i can translate

[sage heath]

my friend is telling me that shrap 10 is better

than shrap 25

[unreal horizon]

it says "there are no mines"

[unreal horizon]

he's wrong 🤷

statistically 25 is better bc of spread, they both kill in 6 pellets

and the sheer dmg doesnt matter, 441 dmg or 20000 dmg both kill just the same

[sage heath]

ok

[unreal horizon]

idk try both and use what you like better

I still use shrap10 all the time, but on paper 25 is better

[pure mist]

why does he need to use ks23?

i can't remember if there's a quest

[sage heath]

He's still saying ur wrong

lamaoaoaoad

[unreal horizon]

I dont really care

the math is there if he wants to do the research

🤷

[sage heath]

well

I trust u

[unreal horizon]

in fact i'll do the math rn

[thorny phoenix]

i might have stepped on a mine

[slow sleet]

This ia the shit i like to see, fact spittin fkers vs nay sayers

[sage heath]

U think I can one tap a pmc at 20 + meters?

[pure mist]

stick near the water

[unreal horizon]

legs have a 1x multiplier which makes this easy
shrap10 dmg = 8x87
shrap25 dmg = 8x78

6x87=522 dmg
7x87=609 dmg (so this is overkill)
6x78=468 dmg (enough to kill any pmc to the legs with a 1x multiplier)

[vivid ember]

mike's been typing for a while im scared

[vapid oracle]

ugh just got one shot like 10 meters away from escaping

;~;

[vivid ember]

rip

[unreal horizon]

I haven't personally, it's possibly though

[sage heath]

it does less damage but has a bigger spread?

shrap 25

[unreal horizon]

smaller spread

so more condensed

[sage heath]

shrap 10 has a bigger spread

?

[unreal horizon]

yes

[sage heath]

shrap 25 bascially has a further range

?

[unreal horizon]

yes

[gritty vector]

well tighter grouping at more range

[sage heath]

same thing but longer range

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah

[unreal horizon]

the 25 is for 25 meters, but honestly it'll probably take 2 shots at 25

[gritty vector]

they both will travel the same distance

[sage heath]

and 10 Meters?

[cosmic tinsel]

the extra damage of shrap10 is pointless, is the point

its why i call it a noob trap

[sage heath]

ok

[cosmic tinsel]

people like your friend see "more dmg = better 👀 "

[unreal horizon]

I am comfortable 1 shotting people within 10 metres 100% of the time, if it doesnt kill its my fault not the ammo

[thorny phoenix]

i cant play woods what the fuck is this map everything looks the same

[gritty vector]

it is better.....at point blank range haha

[cosmic tinsel]

why, because you wanna kill somone MORE dead?

lol

[gritty vector]

always more dead

[thorny phoenix]

and i ran into a eod pmc on the edge of the map smhg

[gritty vector]

double tap haha

[unreal horizon]

there's a common myth that leg multiplier is 1.2, im which case he's be right but here we are

[cosmic tinsel]

there aint no death2, shrap25 does regular death just fine

[cosmic tinsel]

stomach is

legs 1

[unreal horizon]

yeah people think legs 1.2 stom 1.5

idk why

[cosmic tinsel]

arms .75 i think

yeah weird

[unreal horizon]

.5 or .75, isnt really relevant to my gameplay i dont remember

[vapid oracle]

where is this in woods?

[unreal horizon]

town in the top center

above the cluster of lakes

[cosmic tinsel]

are you scavving? this wont count for quests

[vapid oracle]

I'm learning the map

[vivid ember]

abandoned town

[vapid oracle]

a bit more

[cosmic tinsel]

great move

got scared for you 😄

[unreal horizon]

I'm always thrown off when i see people's screenshots

[vapid oracle]

where is it on the map?

[unreal horizon]

bc my postfx are on 100 color and max digital vibrance

[unreal horizon]

1 sec

[vivid ember]

you're up there somewhere

if im not mistaken

[unreal horizon]

I think you're more towards the right side idk though

actually yeah you are to the right, i see the church in your screenshot

think you're in blue

[vivid ember]

godspeed scav

[slow sleet]

Hey meevo, so what where we beefin about

[sage heath]

time to start buying shrap 25

[unreal horizon]

it's mega good

[sage heath]

I believe u man

it make's sense

:/

literally no point in the extra damage

[unreal horizon]

If i'm actually fighting people i use 25, if i'm camping i use 10 because i'm creating a circumstance where they're going to be less than 5 meters from me

[spice vortex]

Anyone willing to help a beginner on 2 factory quests (or am I in the wrong channel for that 😄 )

[sage heath]

how big of a difference is the spread between the shrap 10 and shrap 25?

does shrap 25 have enough spread to one tap at 10 meters?

[carmine gust]

Not a bad place to ask. You can also try jumping into a LFG Factory voice channel and ask to tag along. Those often just want to fill the lobby and farm scavs or do tasks. I'm not playing RN but good luck

[spice vortex]

thanks mate, I'll try my luck

[vapid oracle]

help me find where I am?

[unreal horizon]

I think you're along the West wall

about mid way? not sure

[cosmic tinsel]

that sign means bad news ahead i believe

[slender cave]

looks like it to me

[thorny phoenix]

poor timmy lvl 7 was camping techlight 10 minutes before raid was over

[autumn cove]

west side above zb-14 same road as scav checkpoint

[cosmic tinsel]

some side by side shrap10 (left) vs shrap 25 right)

shrap 25 tends to hit closer to my target

and that circle sitch of shrap10 on the left is no good

[vapid oracle]

ZB-016 is a normal extract right?

[cosmic tinsel]

its not always available but theres no key for it

[crisp nest]

you are at the middle left side of map

next to the small patch of scav sniper land

[pure mist]

don't people call that scav house?

[crisp nest]

no

scav house is different place

[pure mist]

i can't see the map

[crisp nest]

scav house has no snipers

[pure mist]

literally don't know where that map is

[crisp nest]

zb 014

on reddit woods map

[pure mist]

yea

[crisp nest]

better than mapgenie because it shows out of bounds

[pure mist]

it does

[crisp nest]

idk

looks less detailed to me

has less labels

doesnt label sunken village/abandoned town

[vivid ember]

it does

[crisp nest]

this is emercom camp though

or medical camp

[vapid oracle]

Holy fucking shit

this is such a god damn annoying quest

AHHHH

[pure mist]

what quest is that?

[vapid oracle]

It's the USec camp quest

this map is so hard to remember

[crisp nest]

no need to remember it

just have it open

lol

[vapid oracle]

It's really really difficult to know where you are

when the only indicators you have

[pure mist]

sniper rock?

[vapid oracle]

are trees

[crisp nest]

sniper rock

buildings

signs

etc.

[vapid oracle]

like of course when I see them they're kinda helpful

but most of the map is large amounts of trees

[vivid ember]

if you're ever stuck just send a couple screenshots

[vapid oracle]

I just missed my extract by going to eastern rock

instead of northen UN blockade

I also picked up a really nice gun

and just lost it

[vivid ember]

what gun?

[slender cave]

what you need is a guide

[vapid oracle]

Like a hk something something

it was real nice

[vivid ember]

rip

[autumn cove]

want to run a few i will show you around

[vivid ember]

if you ever get lost just send a screenshot and we can help

[vapid oracle]

I'm on asian servers

which are also quite bad cause they keep disconnecting me

even when my wifi is perfectly fine

[autumn cove]

o dang let me check ping

[vapid oracle]

it's 50

consistent 50

[wary valley]

i missed like a gun and a trooper found in raid cause i didn't know reserve well

[crisp nest]

what country are u in

[pure mist]

you dont know that?

[wary valley]

its unlucky af

[vapid oracle]

I'm in hong kong

playing hong kong servers

[crisp nest]

check network loss

hit `

then type in

fps 2

and you can see advanced network stats

[crisp nest]

***packet loss

[wary valley]

lmao

[vivid ember]

i just sell my backpacks honestly its annoying having them in a stack

[autumn cove]

250 ping for me sorry

[vivid ember]

plus my stash is on life support and i cant fit any

[cosmic tinsel]

i just keep attack 2 or better at this point

[vivid ember]

like every backpack i get i cant fit it

or i wont be able to in like 2 raids

[pure mist]

sell stuff you don't use

[vivid ember]

ik

most of my stash is rigs stuffed with like barter items and some meds

[pure mist]

put stuff in your rig n stuff

[vivid ember]

ye i do

most of my stash is rigs

blackrocks, azimuts, anything i can find

[pure mist]

how can you have so many stuff?

sell pharmacy key for example?

[vivid ember]

wdym

[wary valley]

cuz he hoarder like me

[small cairn]

I do the opposite, I keep scav bp's and lower

[cosmic tinsel]

oh yeah?

[crisp nest]

i keep scav bp and higher

[small cairn]

My single greatest pun in tarkov is when I bring a t-bag and when I kill someone, I drop it on their corpse to...t-bag them

[wary valley]

mf probably don't die in succession

[small cairn]

yeah

[dire fog]

so im broke asf and I just keep dying any tips with maps or locations? really anything please

[small cairn]

stash run on IC/customs or rat run on reserve

[cosmic tinsel]

combat is something to be aggressively avoided when you're new. stash and rat runs are good

[unreal horizon]

focus on surviving, you dont need to make a ton of money, just get out

[small cairn]

spam scavs as much as you can and PMC in downtime

[cosmic tinsel]

dont bring much in, dont die

[wary valley]

hope u don't die and keep going

[cosmic tinsel]

did you see the new onepeg emote?

[wary valley]

that breaks inbetween tho

[unreal horizon]

sheeesh

[vivid ember]

scav

[wary valley]

works for me sometimes

[vivid ember]

i like going scav on factory, lots of scraps to loot

[cosmic tinsel]

factory has relatively little loot - its mostly farming players and scavs

[vivid ember]

just hope you get office window, wait until the last 3 mins, so many bodies

[wary valley]

i hate scaving on factory but im addicted to it now

[cosmic tinsel]

its a good fun map

[unreal horizon]

factory istn good for money

[autumn cove]

i made my money running woods. Ran scav gear and ratted.

[cosmic tinsel]

but its not as consistent as... any other map

[vivid ember]

i guess so yes

but i find lots of gear there off of dead players

[wary valley]

wrinkle lookin ass

[vivid ember]

pom pom

[pure mist]

woods

[wary valley]

i just noticed

the headset is going inside the thing

[jolly isle]

why is 4.6x30 flj soo expensive

[dire fog]

Big thank

[crisp nest]

because everyone buys from trader?

4$

[jolly isle]

its on stock

[crisp nest]

?

[jolly isle]

and its lika almost same price as ap sx

[crisp nest]

because

everyone buys it from the trader

not the flea

you're comparing fmj from flea to ap from vendor

[wary valley]

whats the ebst ammo for ak?

[crisp nest]

bs

7n39 (igolnik)

[autumn cove]

what kind of ak

[wary valley]

ak 103

[crisp nest]

bp

[pure mist]

that's 5.45

[crisp nest]

bp for 103

[autumn cove]

995 then 55a1

[crisp nest]

103 isnt 556

thats 101 102

[unreal horizon]

it's 762 russian

[crisp nest]

103 104 are the 762

[autumn cove]

bp my bad

[crisp nest]

101 has fastest muzzle speed btw

for SBIH

with 995 theres rise even at 200m i think

[vapid oracle]

location?

[crisp nest]

near mill?

the road if u follow it to the right should be to mill

i think

[autumn cove]

i think so too

back facing mill

[crisp nest]

isnt mill to the right then down the road then left

so the right of him

[unreal horizon]

yeah that's back side

or like left side

[vapid oracle]

mark is someone on the map for me?

[autumn cove]

anywhere i that direction he will spot mill

[crisp nest]

mill

[vapid oracle]

this one?

[crisp nest]

no

m i l l

[vapid oracle]

circle it please?

[crisp nest]

the middle

[vapid oracle]

oh

[pure mist]

no it's the big camp site near the lake

[autumn cove]

nope you are to the west of that

[vapid oracle]

is this the way to outskirt?

[unreal horizon]

look at the giant lake if you cant orient with that idk what to tell you

[sage heath]

anyone know the settings to turn off blur?

[thorny phoenix]

is it worth it to buy R11 for the gunsmith part 6?

[crisp nest]

no

[unreal horizon]

wrong way

[vapid oracle]

other side of the lake?

[thorny phoenix]

its basically 2 bitcoins worth, and he gives you 3 at the end of the quest

[sage heath]

all gunsmith tasks are worth u always profit

bitcoins are 240k now ):

[crisp nest]

thats the way to un roadblock

[autumn cove]

you are facing outskirts here

[sage heath]

anyone know the setting to turn off blur?

for my game

[thorny phoenix]

someone listed it for 350

[crisp nest]

isnt there literally check box called motion blur

lol

[ivory ether]

is a 41.5 korund usable

or just swap it out for another t5

[sage heath]

UH

[crisp nest]

yes

it maxes at 45

id use it down to 35

[ivory ether]

ooh alright

[sage heath]

z-blur?

[lean flame]

What's a good price range I should be looking for for cheap, early game guns? I'm level 4 and cannot hit the broadside of a barn

[crisp nest]

wait lemme check i swear it was called motion blur

[sage heath]

I turned off Z-blur and its still like foggy blury

[autumn cove]

wouldnt spend money run scav gear

[rough scarab]

because thats probably fog

[carmine gust]

The SKS with PS ammo is a good budget early gun.

[unreal horizon]

SKS with ps is about the only thing I use pre 10

[carmine gust]

can get from level 1 traders

[rough scarab]

also if you wear a face shield it affects how clear your vision is

[lean flame]

I'll try the SKS while my scav is on cooldown

[keen adder]

Im in beginners assistance vc can someone come and help me out

[sage heath]

here

this is the blur im talking about

[unreal horizon]

oh noise?

turn off noise

[sage heath]

O

[crisp nest]

zblur is blur at far range

[sage heath]

holy u are helpful

[crisp nest]

i always thought there was a motion blur setting

cause i searched it up

and everyone was talkin about it

but you want everything ticked off

except i think mip streaming i cant remember

[vapid oracle]

HOLY SHIT

I was fucking like 3 seconds away from death

getting shot at

and I find a salewa kit

heal myself

and run to extract

[lean flame]

I'm beginning to realise that I am bad at doing quests, which is proving problematic

I'm also terrible at fights

[crisp nest]

just get better

[vivid ember]

did you do your quest?

[crisp nest]

no but seriously its just a mindset

[vapid oracle]

yee

[vivid ember]

less goo

[lean flame]

[vivid ember]

my tarkov mindset is garbage

[lean flame]

same here

[vapid oracle]

plus the Salewa kit

allowed me to get the med quest

[vivid ember]

like absolute garbagre

[unreal horizon]

are you pre lvl 10? if so avoid fighting

[lean flame]

I take 30 minutes to get near anywhere

[vivid ember]

same lol

[lean flame]

and ye, I don't want to go near fights

[vivid ember]

same

[lean flame]

the fights seem to come to me

[vivid ember]

its not because of gear fear its because of life fear

[thorny phoenix]

i started as lvl 15 i think today and im almsot lvl 19

[lean flame]

and I come to kissing the ground

[lean flame]

EXACTLY

[vivid ember]

yes

once i was so like

scare

[unreal horizon]

yeah thats just due to a lack of map knowledge, the more you die (and you'll die A LOT) the more you'll learn where people like to hide

[lean flame]

I am WAY too much of a pussy

[vivid ember]

that i dropped my shit and left because i spawned across the map from my quest disregarding the fact that i spent like 100-200k on a kit that i wont get back cause mia

[unreal horizon]

I had this exact same thing when i started

[crisp nest]

mf why is btc stuck at 240k

[vivid ember]

i was like

[lean flame]

best I did was when I spawned as a scav with a hunter and clicked 3 dudes, 1 of which was a PMC

[crisp nest]

u get the kit back

if u dropped it

[vivid ember]

i dc'd

willingly

I heard you don't?
