[somber rain]

did yall have to restart your launcher this morning?

[bold kernel]

that should def be added all the painkillers in the game besides golden star and vaseline can easily be ODed on

anyone know what key opens up this cabin the 2nd floor one?

yes factory portable cabin key i believe

this is on customs

its super cheap

oh okay thanks

[somber rain]

Nihil, did you have to restart your launcher this morning?

[bold kernel]

look it up on youtube cuz im not sure i got the name right but its dcefinitely called portable cabin key for sure not sure about the factory part

no

[somber rain]

why is it making me do this

[bold kernel]

do what

[somber rain]

it says that there's a critical update and i need to restart it

[bold kernel]

well they probably released a hotfix or something

just download the update and restart launcher

[somber rain]

it wont let me

[gusty vigil]

Pic

[bold kernel]

it wont let you restart the launcher?

like even clicking X on the launcher top right wont exit

it just made me do it

[somber rain]

yeah

that

[bold kernel]

i just clicked restart and its doing its thing

[somber rain]

i click restart and it just shuts down

[somber rain]

hold on

let me do something

[bold kernel]

you can tell i havent played for a few days lol

if its just fubarred do a hard reset on the launcher do ctrl+shift+escape which will bring up windows task manager navigate to processes highlight the bsg launcher and click end process

it will force it to close

you right click bsg launcher end task and itll force close it

[somber rain]

I think it’s because there’s another account on the pc that is the admin and it won’t let me

[bold kernel]

it wont let you end task?

[somber rain]

No, i click update and it tells me to enter an admin pin

[bold kernel]

oh admin pin is probably the password to the PC do you know it

[somber rain]

No

[bold kernel]

how you playin then lol

[somber rain]

There’s another person who technically owns it, and they let me use it half the day

It’s weird

[bold kernel]

just call and ask the pin

[somber rain]

But they have the admin account

[jolly crane]

Yo dumbass question cause I cant find the answer on Google, Tarkov doesnt have scope flare right? Like it doesnt have the Battlefield white light whenever you ADS, yea?

[bold kernel]

I dont think it does gummy

dont quote me on it though but ive never seen it

[jolly crane]

Okay thats what I thought, cause ive never seen it. Thank you!

[unreal horizon]

it does not

[bold kernel]

yeah its asking for admin priv password floppa

[somber rain]

Alright

[bold kernel]

just call owner and ask it cuz you need it to update tarkov lol

[cyan token]

hey guys

[somber rain]

I tried contacting the person but they’re at work, so

[bold kernel]

text is fine too

[somber rain]

Hopefully he sees it on his break

[cyan token]

dont know if im in right channel but here it goes, i recently installed tarkov and for some reason the sound is muted in the game. I checked sound devices and volume mixer but it looks fine there

any ideas what else i could try?

[bold kernel]

so ive had that issue too basically you have to make sure that you have the correct sound device selected

you can see it bottom right

make sure you have the correct one selected and then make sure the game has sound

this happens when you have multiple sound devices which a lot of people do

[wary valley]

god save me

fucking shotgun player scav running to me

[cyan token]

i only got one

[bold kernel]

even if u click the little up arrow?

[sullen cairn]

you prob did this already but is the in game volume muted

[bold kernel]

are you using that helicon? right now?

[cyan token]

yes its my go xlr mini

where the sound comes from

[somber rain]

So, the persons break is either at 3 or 3:30

[sullen cairn]

also this was posted in the forum but I have no idea if it'll help you

[somber rain]

I’ll just have to wait a couple of hours

[bold kernel]

if you click the up arrow is there more options that correspond with your xlr

[thorny phoenix]

ok guys, decide for me

night customs/night woods

im in a very unstable situatoin

[cyan token]

hmm interesting , will look into that

[bold kernel]

stash run with an mbss and a pistol on shoreline

do that till you have a run that works out

[thorny phoenix]

no no, we do that after i fail

[bold kernel]

100k is kinda failing lol

[thorny phoenix]

currently im having a rage-run

[bold kernel]

based

rat rig and an akm loaded with the best ammo you can afford for it

to the mooon

[wary valley]

bruv don't do night raids

ur gonna get fucked

[thorny phoenix]

full deck m1a with c5 armor and see if it works or not

i love night raids

thats why i do them

[wary valley]

i start getting raty when i get below 600k

u should do the same bruv

[thorny phoenix]

i have my tactics to get money, but theyre boring

i dont like ratting

ill try woods

[bold kernel]

im the opposite I dont bother not rat running until I have like 10m

[cyan token]

as u can see it is "playing sound" but i cant hear it

[bold kernel]

then i just full chad

check tarkov sound options

did you mute the main menu music

click on character or something and see if it makes the sound of pressing a button

[cyan token]

where do u mute the main menu?

[bold kernel]

in optionms

[cyan token]

everything in sound options is maxed out

i cant hear anything ingame

no clicks

no music

[bold kernel]

dumb question but is what youre using a wireless headset

[wary valley]

u eu or na?

[thorny phoenix]

eu

[wary valley]

well unlucky i guess

i just got an svd so i was gonna go sthurman hunting

[thorny phoenix]

im ready

[grand fern]

@velvet blade Followed your advice and fucked around with the Post FX settings. Color helped a TON. I just caught two people easily in factory because they actually stood out from the enviroment this time

[thorny phoenix]

stopped searching for a game to waste some money, now im ready

[cyan token]

no wireless. i manage to solve it

thanks for the help

[pastel current]

do you need a survival lighter for any quest?

[jovial cobalt]

hello, anyone want to help me with the game, i m lvl 6 and i know only customs

[normal plover]

why is RB ST worth so much

[thorny phoenix]

ill keep you guys updated even if you dont care

updated about my 33k adventure

[somber rain]

im just gonna spend my time watching tarkov videos

[normal plover]

just get rich

[wary valley]

time for my sthurman attempt once again

[unreal horizon]

repair armor

[jovial cobalt]

hello, anyone want to help me with the game, i m lvl 6 and i know only customs

[thorny phoenix]

what is my luck

what the fuck is my fucking luck

i clear sawmill

i open shturmans case

and i get tapped by ai scav?

[wary valley]

happened to me too i killed sthurman then a mf kills me

[thorny phoenix]

as i opened it?

ai scav?

as i opened it?

not before, not after?

exactly when it was open?

[wary valley]

ai scav is gonna love that loot

[thorny phoenix]

i think im gonna stop playing this game at this pace

bp ammo tapping me to the chest?

when i have C5?

this game is just not for me with that luck

[candid fractal]

is it possible to run a decent m1a build around 100k?

[thorny phoenix]

ofc

[unreal horizon]

ehh

[thorny phoenix]

100k is easily manageable unless you want a laser gun

[unreal horizon]

for 100k run a hunter with m61

[unreal imp]

The best 100k builds you can make will be a vss with a grip and a dovetail sight, but the ammo and mags will cost you around 120k going on the cheap side and around 300k for optimal ammo and mag setup

[dark arrow]

i just did an interchange run, i was marking tankers and i came across some guy and i finally had some courage to pvp

and i killed him

[candid fractal]

thanks

im just looking for some variety from the usual mp7a1 i run

[thorny phoenix]

got my body as scav

[naive depot]

always an awesome feeling

[thorny phoenix]

big

true

first time i experience this

[naive depot]

one time i queued back in and had to slay three player scavs on the way to my boys

clenched butthole the whole time

🤔

[unreal horizon]

[cosmic tinsel]

i havent been able to scav into the same raid this wipe

i used to get it somewhat consistently

(i also have only tried like 4 times)

[coral tiger]

ermmm is moonshine scavcase worth it?

[unreal horizon]

nope

only for kappa items

[wary valley]

me too

[jovial cobalt]

hello, anyone want to help me with the game, i m lvl 6 and i know only customs

[ivory ether]

how is the 220 key supposed to help in chemical 1

[thorny phoenix]

okay so the 10 minutes mute helped me calm down

[ivory ether]

all i know is that im supposed to just find the docs case in a train car

and that doesnt need a key afaik

[thorny phoenix]

it doesnt change the fact that an ai scav onetapped me the exact moment i got up from being prone next to my body

im really, really, really feeling unlucky

[thorny phoenix]

you turn the key in to vendor

[ivory ether]

does it give me extra stuff

or exp

[thorny phoenix]

will i still get the insurance, even if my items were on someone elses body?

dunno

i bought the key for 5k on flea and turned it in

[ivory ether]

oh

[thorny phoenix]

ill try one more time as a scav

maybe itll work

[wary valley]

i just need to get an RR

and im set after killing sthurman man

[thorny phoenix]

yesterday i die with 8% chance, today this happens to me

[wary valley]

what are the chances for a red card on sthurman?

ive gotten a labs access on a guard

[thorny phoenix]

dunno

i always gotten lbs access from reshala tho

[unreal horizon]

low

not sure if the number is public knowledge, but very low

[wary valley]

welp

just got killed doing it

[vivid ember]

rest in peace soldier

[pure mist]

it's stupid trying to farm red card since the chances are extrememly low

[violet flare]

!sherpa

uhm

[wet path]

anyone wanna help a low level do his tasks and figure out where these extractions are ?

[thorny phoenix]

i just 1v4'ed as a scav

damn

fun game

i wanted to push a player scav that pinned another player scav, ended up in between both of them so i had to quickly kill one, get behind cover, turns out that there was a duo pushing thsi guy, so i killed that duo too

[quick gust]

when will be wipe?

[thorny phoenix]

!wipe

dunno

[quick gust]

first day playing this game

so i want to know that

[unreal horizon]

thursday

??wipe

[red current]

The last wipe occurred on Dec 24, 2020. The date of the next wipe is unknown.

[pure mist]

soon™️

[thorny phoenix]

why is my docs case for therapist 105k

despite it being empty?

oh its so expensive on its own

nvm

[pure mist]

they were 450k before on flea

[haughty tulip]

Wait

That's expensive?

That's like

1/3 of your worst scav run

[crystal rain]

should I sell

or wait

for a price increase

[cosmic tinsel]

if anyone knew the answer, they'd buy irl bitcoins

[unreal horizon]

you'll get like 60k more if it increases

just sell

[crystal rain]

alr

mechanic quest be so profitable

1000 euros and 3 bitcoin

[slow sleet]

oi, ik yall cant comprehend why the STM-9 is the god gun, but lemme tell you what.

when u can hit 5digit+ ms on discord, your steppin up on another level then the rest of the population

309 million, 558 thousand, and 611 milliseconds, lesss gooo

[thorny phoenix]

what do you use tetriz for?

[wet path]

anyone wanna run some customs ?

[unreal horizon]

sell to therapist

you can barter for a bitcoin but its not good

[thorny phoenix]

i know but do they have like a barter offer or smth

oh that

gp coins?

[crystal rain]

what should I use for sniping

[unreal horizon]

snb usually

its cheap and pens class 6

[crystal rain]

alr

[thorny phoenix]

[thorny phoenix]

anyone knows?

[somber portal]

if it wasn't brought out of raid, yes 🙂

[wet path]

my game just bugged out is it said terminated over somrthing . is that normal?

[thorny phoenix]

ty

[bold kernel]

Since wipe immanent should I practice my PvP or do quests?

I'm still on begginer quests

[brittle crypt]

i hit a mil too today :p

[unreal horizon]

wipe isnt immanent

because ya know, no one knows when it is

[brittle crypt]

i think they mean because it's been a while since the last wipe and people are speculating it's next month

or within a month

[unreal horizon]

I hope so

[cedar narwhal]

how u know

[unreal horizon]

nikita said it isnt

thats what im going off

dispite him lying the day before last wipe

[lunar cosmos]

Newer player around level 30 just can’t figure out how to win pvp if you think you can help dm me

First wipe ^

[cosmic tinsel]

play aggressive, go face, do factory with cheap guns

practice practice practice

[brittle crypt]

do you get account xp from scaving or just with pmc?

[cosmic tinsel]

just pmc

[brittle crypt]

kk ty

[cosmic tinsel]

pmc and scav have different levels/skills

so scavs do progress, but only for future scavs

and like, whats a little bit more level on a scav do

[bold kernel]

Which are the quests I should focus on? The ones that help level up the traders the most

[unreal horizon]

all of them

[rose rock]

not exactly pro, dont have many kills, but one thing i learned on jaeger's quest on killing 6 ppl in factory office area is that pvp doesnt mean going to the thick of it, its more a game of who pushes dumb first, if you take the first attack and keep at it the others will feel the need to go on the defensive, which can work since they panic defend or if youre just pushing dumb its walking to your death, if you think you cant push there throw a nade and flank/go around

[bold kernel]

Ok

[unreal horizon]

you're really early on, just do them all

[bold kernel]

Ok

[rose rock]

that and gear fear is a bitch, go with something youre familiar with, did alot better with a mp5sd than a meta m4 i looted

[bold kernel]

Where are those shops you have to visit in interchange for Ragman's first quest?

[rose rock]

tarkov wiki has it

[cosmic tinsel]

trust the wiki

[somber portal]

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

[unreal horizon]

use the wiki for every quest

its great

[cerulean apex]

the shops are all on the first floor. i would start by idea and grab kostin first (its beside emercom medical) then head to trend and keep following it around

[naive depot]

don't try to hit top brand at the start of the match unless you get god spawn outside oli and haul ass in and out

texho area at the start of a match is a bloodbath-

[cerulean apex]

yeah it is... lmao

[compact token]

WHAT THE FUCK

[unreal horizon]

ye

they do that

[compact token]

he's not even looking at me when he fires

[cinder hound]

then go in

Ez quest

[somber rain]

dominance=asserted

[quick gust]

how to play offline?

[somber rain]

so, can someone tell me how to put a sight on the SA-58?

[quick gust]

oh i see i cannot play offline with scav but with pmc i can

[unreal imp]

Youll get quite a bit of pvp while doing quests, just try to optimize your playstyle while you do stuff

[unreal imp]

That is known as a powerslide, killa and raiders do that pretty often.

going wide on a raider is brave

[compact token]

yeah the slide I understand

the blast of buckshot out the asshole less so

[unreal imp]

Raiders have aimbot

[somber rain]

can someone help me on how to put a sight on the SA-58?

[compact token]

that's not aimbot that's just me dying, totally unrelated to the raider's behavior

[unreal imp]

swap dust cover with rail on it and then anything fits

[somber rain]

ok, thanks

[compact token]

I get they need to be threatening but they should at least need to point their gun at me

[unreal imp]

He runs, slides and he targeted your upper chest or head already before he started running so he adjusts to it almost instantly and shoots

I only tight peek raiders so they dont have time to fire because they aim and shoot the first thing they see

wide swinging is ok too but you have to kill them pretty quick as there is no going back

[thorny phoenix]

wdym he definitely had the right to kill you

that moan at the beginning lmao

[crystal rain]

you cant tell me this isnt the shittiest fucking way to play factory

[cosmic tinsel]

lotta people live in fear

its our job, as chads, to make them feel that that fear is valid

[sacred mortar]

anyone wanna paly

[cosmic tinsel]

push hard, be unpredictable, choose violence

[winter plume]

lol bunny hopped that guy

[cosmic tinsel]

he wasnt ready

30rndrs fulla quakemaker find their home eventually

[winter plume]

lol most definitely wasn't ready

[compact token]

wow that is even better

is that a shotgun too

[winter plume]

Yeah looks like saiga with a 20 rounder

[crisp nest]

10

[compact token]

I had a shattered mask and c4 on

why do I wear anything if it won't protect against fucking buckshot

[crisp nest]

because armor affects ai

they aim at unarmored area more

i do run armor on labs because c6 has tanked 855a1 for me before

[thorny phoenix]

do you guys also get that feeling sometimes when youre too lazy to bring out your pmc after dying?

like, im too lazy to put a decent set on it so i just wait for scav

[crisp nest]

did yall just get a large launcher update

[unreal horizon]

I got something this morning, wouldnt call it large tho

[cosmic tinsel]

im convinced that "scav aim" rules are just confirmation bias

but i'm also a knuckledraggin moron

[quick gust]

is this a extracion point?

customs croosroads

[crisp nest]

yes

[thorny phoenix]

yes

[crisp nest]

depends if you have it

lol

[quick gust]

how do i leave?

[crisp nest]

i dont know but my buddy told me to grab armor on labs even if its paca

[unreal horizon]

go closer

[crisp nest]

stand in it

near the STOP thing

you must have it as an extract in ur list though

[quick gust]

ok this is a thing

thanks

my first offline game 😅

[thorny phoenix]

youll get to understand extracts quickly

[crisp nest]

as pmc on customs

there are 2 sides

if you spawn on left u extract right

if u spawn right u extract left

[quick gust]

ok i will remember that

[haughty tulip]

I've played so much reserve lately I thought this was scav land extract

I need halp

Yet here I go again

Man who needs drugs when you have tarkov

[iron willow]

the only exception to that is if you turn on power and extract at ZB-013 which is basically in the middle of the map under that big building with the MGs

[haughty tulip]

Center of the map on the side of the buildings

[wary valley]

1.2 mil to 600k once again

time to run reserve/shoreline again

500k*

[haughty tulip]

Reserve is a party rn

[thorny phoenix]

1mil to 350k

[wary valley]

are u my long lost brother

[thorny phoenix]

i just cant stop running m1a

this gun is so fun

[haughty tulip]

I enjoy the sks

Even with money or meta loadouts I enjoy running it

I also enjoy shooting 2 thermal players in the head with it

[iron willow]

its always fun to run

[haughty tulip]

sks with valday

[thorny phoenix]

lmao, i saw marked circle on the ground

[iron willow]

i always prefer vudu over valday but i dont think you can put one on an sks

[thorny phoenix]

so i instantly zoomed away

[iron willow]

woods?

[haughty tulip]

an op sks yes

[thorny phoenix]

yes

[iron willow]

yeah, on woods dont worry about marked circles unless its night

no one really bothers with them on woods bc they arent good

same with shoreline

[thorny phoenix]

im at night

[iron willow]

oh it makes sense now

[haughty tulip]

So you are hunting cultists?

Didn't they had bad loot

[iron willow]

no

they have really good loot lol

guns are meh, can have hexgrids, slicks, 2nd best or best ammo etc

[crystal rain]

do I need this after intel level 2?

[iron willow]

wdym?

[crystal rain]

in hideout

[unreal horizon]

dont think so

[crystal rain]

cause I might just sell this

[iron willow]

no

[crystal rain]

I have 4 rn

[iron willow]

u can keep it for scav case though

[thorny phoenix]

i hate sawmill so much

every scav here is a sniper that doesnt even scream and blacks out my 2 arms

[crisp nest]

im just at under 1 mil always

[iron willow]

probably because they are at long range

[crisp nest]

i reinvest into gearsets for when i do play

[iron willow]

you just dont hear it

[crystal rain]

HELP

[crisp nest]

not worth

[iron willow]

??

[crisp nest]

only worth it for non-fir intel

[iron willow]

ye

[cosmic tinsel]

how many raids tho fam

how many raids

[crystal rain]

140

[crisp nest]

i have much too many raids

because i used to hatchet run when i was new because i was too poor to run sks kits even

and prapor didnt send me anything

[crystal rain]

can someone help me with this?

Been trying to do it for days now

[crisp nest]

that was before i played with any1 either

[haughty tulip]

For days?

[unreal horizon]

just... run to them

[haughty tulip]

God damn

[unreal horizon]

you dont need to kill anything

[haughty tulip]

Pretty much

[unreal horizon]

you just need to walk

[crystal rain]

Bro

I either get killed every time

[crisp nest]

@crystal rain just sj6 to resort

[haughty tulip]

Naked, pm, everything in the secure container

[crystal rain]

or get lost in the resort

[haughty tulip]

Watch a vid,

Use a map

[unreal horizon]

you dont need to go to the resort

only the roof

[crystal rain]

I dont know how to get up there...

[unreal horizon]

staircase is on the west side

its kind of back by admin a bit

[cosmic tinsel]

north east side of the west wing

[crystal rain]

admin???

[haughty tulip]

You need to have patient and don't rush in there

[velvet talon]

[haughty tulip]

Well Narzic needs help with signal pt 1

[serene crystal]

@crystal rain i got that same quest

[crisp nest]

Never go down there with a thermal

[autumn wyvern]

[haughty tulip]

Wdym

Would you like to group up with someone or watch someone?

[autumn wyvern]

group up if thats cool

[haughty tulip]

You need a sherpa my boy

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[haughty tulip]

Or if someone here offers that also works

[crisp nest]

or #pvp-lfg but that wont go well if you're new

[haughty tulip]

Yeah no

[autumn wyvern]

lol

[haughty tulip]

Got better chances here or the hub

Ah well here we go again as scavy boy

Time to die in the rattacombs

[thorny phoenix]

woods run was a success

not much profit but i lived

[terse stag]

Would someone care to help me do a quest on woods? I need to find an item in a cabin, but I dont know the map well, and everytime I find it, I either die fumbling to the extract or something of the sorts?

[crisp nest]

are you using a map

[terse stag]

yeah

https://drive.google.com/file/d/10d3ZtX21f6rDaVLupYGMsZHtsGbC7S_d/view

specifically this one

[unreal horizon]

well that'll do it

thats a map from before the expansion

its outdated

[terse stag]

oh

[thorny phoenix]

i cant play the game AI is too smart for me

reshala has 6 guards at warehouse, noted

[cosmic tinsel]

rando scavs can spawn, but only 4 bodyguards

[unreal horizon]

if they dont have those blue jackets, theyre normal guards

[thorny phoenix]

im never bringing otu a weapon

[dire stirrup]

its essential to your survival, even a pistol

what do you usually bring anyways

[haughty tulip]

Pretty sure he's trolling at this point since he said he hunted cultists

[thorny phoenix]

i didint hunt cultists

i just ran near their circle

[unreal horizon]

cultist watching

[haughty tulip]

lel

I've been confused af with this raiders at K buildings

One dead raider on the floor and the rest nowhere

I scared one player scav

Like

Hardcore dude started shooting the opposite direction from where I was shooting him from

[cedar gust]

anyone know why i cant switch to the upper scope on my hamr sight, im pressing the right keybind

[haughty tulip]

Because it doesn't have it

You need to buy it and equip it

[cedar gust]

i see the sight up on top tho

[unreal horizon]

deltapoint

[cedar gust]

OH WAIT

[unreal horizon]

its a protective rail, but no actual sight

lol

[haughty tulip]

Yeah

[cedar gust]

THANK YOU LOL

[haughty tulip]

No problem

[unreal horizon]

nah idk anyone who hasn't messed that up

[haughty tulip]

I already did it

I went in raid as well

[cedar gust]

where do i get the sight itself

[haughty tulip]

And here I am wondering if I'm bugged

Link search the sight

[crisp nest]

pk2

deltapoint sight

[haughty tulip]

Or just linked search the hamr

Ok so

[cedar gust]

compact collimators?

[haughty tulip]

SNB or 7N1

Wait I should have one

Leupold DeltaPoint Reflex Sight

You can search with that on flea

[cedar gust]

i got one from peace

ty

[haughty tulip]

Np

I've got one on my adar since the beginning of the wipe

[cedar gust]

i thought my key was broken or some shit for a second lol

[haughty tulip]

Yep

It do be like that

Alright people, SNB or 7N1

I am too lazy to google stats

[cedar gust]

pretty sure 7n1 is better

[haughty tulip]

Uhm

You'd be surprised

[unreal horizon]

snb

all day

[haughty tulip]

More pen?

Or flesh

[unreal horizon]

2 taps slick

thats all you need to know

[wispy needle]

i cant extract with jaeger thingy

[haughty tulip]

What about 7N37

Huh?

[wispy needle]

i am very angry

[haughty tulip]

Wdym can't extract

You die?

[unreal horizon]

exact same, but not as cheap

[haughty tulip]

Wait really

Well yeah it ain't cheap for sure

1425 per bullet

Or even more from players

smh

[unreal horizon]

snb like 500

[haughty tulip]

Even cheaper than 7N1

lol

[unreal horizon]

its basically m61

[haughty tulip]

And it's so easy to find in reserve

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[haughty tulip]

I keep getting boxes

Altho I've been trying to hunt raiders instead

Where dem raider

[modern mantle]

does anybody know what the best map for money if

os

is

[haughty tulip]

Labs

Reserve

[unreal horizon]

^

[haughty tulip]

Interchange

[unreal horizon]

labs

[haughty tulip]

I mean

Depending on what risks are you willing to take

[modern mantle]

dont you need a keycard for labs tho

[haughty tulip]

Yeah

Ehm

[unreal horizon]

ask dumb questions get dumb answers

[haughty tulip]

Yes and no

Can I get a dumb answer

[unreal horizon]

you can make great money on every map but factory

[haughty tulip]

[modern mantle]

k thanks

[haughty tulip]

In order

Labs > IC > Resort/Reserve > Customs

[unreal horizon]

lab > reserve > IC > shoreline > shit map that no one likes (customs)

[haughty tulip]

Idk

Reserve got nerfed on loot heavy

[unreal horizon]

imo reserve is a bit better now that gpu is cheap

[haughty tulip]

I think you cna get more stuff out of IC

But there's no gpu there tho

I've done hundreds of raids and no 1 gpu

I got one from a raider once as a scav

Like months ago

[unreal horizon]

like a bag from reserve is probably worth more than a bag from IC if you do raiders and have keys

[haughty tulip]

Ah yeah

[wispy needle]

can i get jaeger as a trader by running a scav?

[unreal horizon]

nope

[haughty tulip]

But more pvp on reserve imo

[wispy needle]

shit

[haughty tulip]

And probably more chances to die

If not by pvpers by extract campers

[unreal horizon]

ehh, if we considered risk, labs wouldnt be #1 🤷

[haughty tulip]

Agreed

[unreal horizon]

lets say we're talking pure money make on successful run

[haughty tulip]

Heavy money heavy chances of death

Hmmm

IC

Goes first imo

[unreal horizon]

i've been making a shit ton of money camping safe room

[haughty tulip]

Well

But let's not talk about camping

[unreal horizon]

when I hear footsteps, bounce a VOG off the ceiling, 3 man down

[haughty tulip]

That way anyone can if you just camp specific locations

[unreal horizon]

funniest shit you've ever seen

[haughty tulip]

And get fat loot 10/10

Let's say normal raids

Pushing and looting places

[unreal horizon]

also not counting red room because ya know...

[haughty tulip]

Well...

[unreal horizon]

I think labs would still be number 1

[thorny phoenix]

today i killed more players than i died to, but i died more to AI than all of those kills and deaths combined

[haughty tulip]

When talking about labs

How do you pvp and die so easy to AI

You got half an hour to aim to their heads before they shoot

Except scav bosses

[thorny phoenix]

its not like that with me

[haughty tulip]

Those mfs will aimbot the crap out of you

[thorny phoenix]

they shoot with their first word of a voice line

and i always lose at least one limb

i get fragmented into my chest with 8% chance

they dont even say anything and one tap me

[unreal horizon]

yikes

[thorny phoenix]

i lost more money to ai than players since i started playing

thats how it looks like because of ai

sometimes i dont even live long enough to see ai

[unreal horizon]

therapist insurance doesnt work

[haughty tulip]

Tjey don't shoot at the first voice line

[unreal horizon]

colleagues pt 1 theyre all dead

[haughty tulip]

There's a small time before they shoot

[unreal horizon]

no colleagues to get the gear

[haughty tulip]

Way shorter than raiders or scavs

[thorny phoenix]

i mean scavs

regular fucking scavs

the most regular scavs you can imagine

[haughty tulip]

No way

[thorny phoenix]

hmm, i havent played anything on my steam for a while

[haughty tulip]

They take hours to shoot

[thorny phoenix]

hatchling time

(with a pistol, so technically a pistoling)

[haughty tulip]

I can't get hatchling

It ain't fun to be shot

and not shooting back

[thorny phoenix]

WAIT

M381 HE ammo

is 100k each

i didint know

[crisp nest]

@haughty tulip only use snb

[wispy needle]

ok can someone please help me with this stupid quest

[thorny phoenix]

lmao

[haughty tulip]

Help as in answer my question or take me to insert place here so i can get it done help

[thorny phoenix]

i feel you

brb speedrunning

[wispy needle]

insert

i keep getting murked on woods trying to grab the paper so i can have him as a trader

[haughty tulip]

Hmm

Are you just running right away to the task place and trying to extract?

[wispy needle]

yes

[haughty tulip]

Usually that gets you killed

I'd instead be patient and wait a bit on bushes

[unreal horizon]

sit in a bush for 20 mins if u dont wanna pvp

[haughty tulip]

That usually works

Yep

Get on your bush put some YT and wait

[unreal horizon]

100%

[haughty tulip]

The longer you are in a raid the chances of survival increases

Any raid imo

Map*

[wispy needle]

i get spawnrushed half the time anyway

[haughty tulip]

Go towards center

[unreal horizon]

then run away from the other spawns, or hold them

[haughty tulip]

Then pick a bush

People are not searching for bushes

People on bushes*

[unreal horizon]

I dont think many people spawn rush on woods, from what I understand the spawns are pretty well designed there

[haughty tulip]

Some spawns do get pvp early

I can't recall which ones tho

[wispy needle]

i got spawnrushed like 3/5 times

[haughty tulip]

Head towards center

That will work

[unreal horizon]

pick a bush

[wispy needle]

ok

[unreal horizon]

any bush

[haughty tulip]

Since most of spawns are on the edge

all spawns are somewhat on the edge

[wispy needle]

ok thanks

[haughty tulip]

If you rush the center you should get an easy time

Pick a thicc bush

Take food/water

You are going for long raid on woods

Also good to get metabolism leveled

[wary valley]

what to do when broke af?

[haughty tulip]

Scav raids

How do you become broke tho

Stop buying cigarettes from therapist

smh

[tiny valley]

is there a way you can unbind a key?

[haughty tulip]

unbind?

like

[tiny valley]

yea

[wispy needle]

i feel you

[haughty tulip]

you want to change the item from the keybind

[tiny valley]

no just remove the key

[haughty tulip]

Bro I got 22m and I scav raid

I enjoy scav

[unreal horizon]

you probably can

[haughty tulip]

Like

[tiny valley]

i wanna unbind the overhead blind fire

[haughty tulip]

Ohhhh

Hmm

Why

[unreal horizon]

or just bind it to some button you never use

like 0 or something

[haughty tulip]

There

Mike to the rescue

[tiny valley]

@unreal horizon smart

[unreal horizon]

I looked i dont actually think you can unbind shit

[tiny valley]

any tips on making money?

[thorny phoenix]

im very sad

[tiny valley]

yea its stupid

[thorny phoenix]

hoyl fucking shit

[unreal horizon]

play safe and scav when its off cooldown

[unreal horizon]

best way to make money is to survive

[haughty tulip]

But... safe doesn't get you decent loot

[tiny valley]

scav what map

[haughty tulip]

Well yeah learn how to survive first

[unreal horizon]

reserve if you're willing to sit in queue for a bit, IC if you're not

[tiny valley]

which will get me more money?

[haughty tulip]

2m 30s for my queue

Safer is IC on stash runs

On reserve you will def make

[unreal horizon]

if you're comfortable fighting raiders reserrve is great money

[haughty tulip]

Pvp tho

[unreal horizon]

IC stashes, you shouldnt see anyone, but you need a scav with a backpacl

[haughty tulip]

I died 6 times today and got out 2

[unreal horizon]

stonks

or rather opposite stonks

📉

[haughty tulip]

Not stonls

Idk why but suddenly it's just crowded

Crowded as in dead bodies everywhere

Pmcs everywhere late in the raid

[wary valley]

wanna do some broke runs with me

[haughty tulip]

Player scav rarmy

Bro

Tomorrow Id be glad

I'm done for the day

[wary valley]

yeah i figured

[unreal horizon]

game seems less dead today, all my games have been full

[wary valley]

i am almost done for the day

[haughty tulip]

Bro

I had the most insane games yesterda

I got in between d2 camper and 3 players

Down at d2

[wary valley]

i lost like 900k off of labs access keycards on scavs

[haughty tulip]

I killed 4 and died to last one

[unreal horizon]

yesterday i popped off on IC 2 games in a row

[wary valley]

actually i lost like 1.2mil

cause i am too fucking greedy

[unreal horizon]

killed a 5 man, next match killed 4 pmcs

[haughty tulip]

But why are you losing money

[unreal horizon]

m61 supremacy

[haughty tulip]

Is the real question

You should always have money

1m at least

The rest goes to hideout

Unless you are max hideout

[wary valley]

i lost 1.2 mil cause i didn't straight exfil after getting labs access card

[haughty tulip]

Oof 100

[wary valley]

then i lost more money cause im unlucky

[wispy needle]

i have a labs card but dont have flea yet 😭

[haughty tulip]

Just hold onto it

Lvl 10 is easy

[wispy needle]

i am

[wary valley]

which one?

[unreal horizon]

easiest levels you'll get, only 60k xp

anyone know the exact # of xp from lvl 69 to 70?

[wispy needle]

just standard

[wary valley]

which one?

[wispy needle]

access card srry

[haughty tulip]

Too fockin much

1.3m?

[wary valley]

xd

[unreal horizon]

nah its much more

[haughty tulip]

Fin

Fun

I was trying to guess

Ahahha

[unreal horizon]

69-70 is more than 1-69

[haughty tulip]

Nice

I mean since past lvl 40 you don't really need to level up anymore

And 70 is max right?

[unreal horizon]

10 mil

wow

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[quartz mortar]

whops

[haughty tulip]

Ban?

[unreal horizon]

I need fashion advice.

this

or

[thorny phoenix]

1st

[haughty tulip]

Second

[unreal horizon]

the green matches the accents really well but they're kind of bright in the light

[haughty tulip]

Ah

I thought you said fashion

Not tactical

[unreal horizon]

fair enough

[haughty tulip]

?

[quartz mortar]

sorry wrong pic

[thorny phoenix]

lmao

[unreal horizon]

@naive depot sorry for ping again remove this stupid shit

[quartz mortar]

dont question it

[haughty tulip]

Twice?

[thorny phoenix]

fr

[quartz mortar]

yes i swear

[thorny phoenix]

delete the message yourself come on

[quartz mortar]

ok

[haughty tulip]

[hearty flame]

i heard if you ever posted a photo with a red background u like dick up ur ass

^

[unreal horizon]

that is what i've been told as well

[haughty tulip]

You don't make mistakes like that tho

[hearty flame]

i think everyone got the memo

[royal belfry]

can i complete quests as scav?

[thorny phoenix]

ok last IC attempt

[hearty flame]

hm

[haughty tulip]

No

[quartz mortar]

no

[haughty tulip]

Can't do tasks unless it's retrieving items

[hearty flame]

red background again?

[unreal horizon]

nope, but you can get items needed, like spark plugs

[thorny phoenix]

i died with 2 gpus in my container to killa

[hearty flame]

you like dick up ur ass i see

[haughty tulip]

Damn

Ic only places spawning gpu

Besides customs and labs

[unreal horizon]

this is the ultimate lifeform, t a n m a n

[haughty tulip]

And resort?

Black is tactical tho

[thorny phoenix]

i was going to check ledx spawn

on ic

and killa started screaming russian

[haughty tulip]

Fun

[thorny phoenix]

smh

[haughty tulip]

Funx2

Offer him some vodka

See what happens

[thorny phoenix]

whenever i run through the mall and i hear russian i get scared shitless

leg meta with pst gzh possible?

[royal belfry]

should i be going through all of the traders stuff and examining everything every so often

[unreal horizon]

yeah

try to get everything examined

particularly mods, because missing mods in presets sucks

[haughty tulip]

Anything works for Leg meta

Some stuff works way better tho

[unreal horizon]

.45 rip is probably top tier leg meta

other than shrap

45 rip time to kill is practically instant though

4 shots at 1100 rpm

[haughty tulip]

Damn

That's why it's expensive

[unreal horizon]

4 shots to 1 leg, 5 shots if split across legs. kind of crazy

9x19 rip is 5 or 6 shots, and super cheap with the Green Ice trade

thats a 50 round vector mag for 15k

[crisp nest]

10mil

exactly

[royal belfry]

so people talk about 1 mil + raids but in my mind i dont really understand how you get that much value in your limited pack space

[wary valley]

just one item can bring u to 1 mil

like ledx

[royal belfry]

wow

[cosmic tinsel]

something like this

mags fulla ammo

100k red tube in secure

100k help, 200k vest

100k trooper in bag, bag worth 60

not an all time great haul, but one example of something around a mil

[crisp nest]

there was much more but i had a small bag

this is gearsets not valuables though

[thorny phoenix]

oh damn this game is so easy when using full auto guns

shouldve done it earlier

i extracted with the voice menu open and now i cant load back in

[hard cosmos]

who is going to assist me

[unreal horizon]

no one if you dont specify what you need

[mossy ravine]

right lol

[hard cosmos]

assistance

[unreal horizon]

lmfao

[crystal rain]

shuold I get this

[unreal horizon]

if you really need space

the med case barter is pretty cheap tho, i'd just do that

[crystal rain]

alr

yeah

also wtf do I do about this

[unreal horizon]

if you want kappa, go through tarkov tracker's site and see what you need. if you want lvl 4 traderes, honestly you dont need to keep anything

[mossy ravine]

some of that stuff will be used for hideout upgrades

[unreal horizon]

you can quest to lvl 4 easily w/o keeping anything

[crystal rain]

feels good

[royal belfry]

do vases i get before that ragman quest count towards it?

[cunning juniper]

yes, as long as it still has fir status

[royal belfry]

oh ok

should i keep it around for the future quest then

its kinda big

[hardy marsh]

i would

[compact token]

I played labs with confidence instead of playing like a complete bitch and got a sick flank through server hole

then died to his duo

why do I even try

[red folio]

to be able to eventually kill the duo, aiming for the trio

[compact token]

yeah

I killed the first one with 855a1 out of a gun I found in a previous labs raid

just didn't have time to heal before engaging #2

[red folio]

were you using 30r mags?

[compact token]

60s

plenty of rounds

I hit him a few times but I ran out of health first

440 vs 880

I won't deny it was fun

but it's also real expensive to die with pvp gear on

[red folio]

were you able to reposition? or was the rush immediate

[compact token]

immediate

right behind the first guy

[red folio]

yeah. there's almost nothing to do about stuff like that. only thing I can say is "get tarkov'd"

[compact token]

anybody know where I am? I don't know this side of the map

[red folio]

or get lucky next time and keep sending lead

looks like 2nd floor behind the mess hall, I could be wrong

[whole ruin]

hallway outside auditorium

[thorny phoenix]

oh boy i cant sleep and its 5 in the morning

guess its tarkov time agian

[red folio]

welcome back to the struggle

[thorny phoenix]

its fun

i made 900k on interchange last run

[unreal horizon]

this is your life now

[thorny phoenix]

without a single gpu

and no keys

[red folio]

sleep in tarkov. not in IRL

[thorny phoenix]

feelsbad cause tomorrow i need to wake up at 8 so it means that my schedule is fucked now

tips how to kill killa?

i mean weapon

[crisp nest]

m61 hunter

[red folio]

go for the legs, or use a hunter

[south oak]

what's the cheapest five-seven ammo still worth using

assuming I go for the legs

and not body armor

[compact token]

well I ran out into atrium and got into a fight

[thorny phoenix]

price is not an issue with ammo

[compact token]

sprayed, missed, ran, died

[whole ruin]

anyone by chance have a spare tarkov acc? ik its a longshot

[compact token]

didn't have the map knowledge to break los

[crisp nest]

why are you going for legs with a pistol(thats semi)

[crisp nest]

sharing accs is bannable

[south oak]

pistol kills

[unreal horizon]

yeah thats some TOS shit
