[dry belfry]

Ping him

Also ask if I can have Blue

[unreal horizon]

[patent wagon]

yes indeed

[wary valley]

which stores have a chance to spawn graphics cards on interchange

[unreal horizon]

techlight texho ras and german

[dry belfry]

Ok this can fuck right off lmao

[unreal horizon]

actually there's a gpu spawn in the long store across from texho but i've never seen it

[unreal horizon]

sheeeeeeeeeesh

the drip is real

[dry belfry]

only thing dripping is my tears

[thorny phoenix]

texho, rasmussen, techlight, german

[dry belfry]

From crying

[thorny phoenix]

cant find cms kits incrackhouse :(

[unreal horizon]

try med camp on woods

[kindred brook]

woods is toxic asf tho. its snipe someone from cross map and never get their loot central

[dry belfry]

Or Med on Reserve

[unreal horizon]

med on reserve is stinky

[wary valley]

welp

[willow jackal]

Looking for my last Kappa Items.
Reserve, Customs.

[wary valley]

i gotta dip since i got no ammo left

where is the avocado store tho?

[jovial cobalt]

hi i m new to the game and trying to learn customs, anyone more experienced wanna help me with some raids?

[unreal horizon]

in the octagon by hole in ground to garage

[wary valley]

ima just fucking go to avacado with no ammo

[patent wagon]

Ive learned the MP5K is a good gun, ive used it for like 3 raids and ive been successful with it

[unreal horizon]

lol whatever works ig

note that is in fact, a bad gun

[patent wagon]

Nah

slap a 50x scope and a red dot on top

[unreal horizon]

9x19 just isnt that good

[kindred brook]

ap6.3 from peacekeeper change my mind

[unreal horizon]

trash

[patent wagon]

no

[vivid ember]

that gun is great

[unreal horizon]

any bullet can 1 tap face, thats not a valid point imo

[vivid ember]

i would personally use it tbh

[unreal horizon]

also .45 acp ap is literally better for cheaper, and you're probably running a vector anyway

[small cairn]

kektor users, mega lul

Only chads use a million flash lights and literally use the sun as a weapon

[kindred brook]

ap6.3 can still delete a lvl5 armor in ab half a mag and .45 is ok but gives way more kick

[thorny phoenix]

fuck.exe

[kindred vault]

a vector giving way more kick means it's still not giving a kick

[unreal horizon]

yup

[unreal horizon]

oh dear over 30 recoil! what will we do

[small cairn]

Funny thing is, I base all my gun names on m4, like budget m4 and meta m4, but neither is an m4, it is dt mdr and hk xdd

[compact token]

oh god does this mean I have to hold my vector with both hands

or that I'll be able to tell when I'm firing it

[thorny phoenix]

i killed a guy that was looting reshala and guards bodies

but it was like 2 minutes left

grabbed an altyn and some ammo and started running

2 secs too late

at least he didint get the loot either hehe

[unreal horizon]

meta guns are dumb, this is peak performance

[thorny phoenix]

nah

[small cairn]

BEG BOLLET=BEG DAMAGH

[unreal horizon]

yes

[unreal horizon]

the sound of ASh-12 bullets hitting the floor

[thorny phoenix]

why lapua magnum ap bullet has 30% ricochet chance

it literally makes holes in walls, how is this supposed to ricochet

[reef spoke]

@thorny phoenix bullet shape

instead of being "steel cored" its a brass, steel core guy, so in theory yeah it would have a good chance to defect if you caught it right

[compact token]

this didn't save mr. TTVOpieWinston from dying to a raider in the labs staircase and leaving me his loot so maybe you're on to something

[unreal horizon]

yikes

[unreal horizon]

you hate to see it

[small cairn]

nice

[compact token]

I'm waiting for him to go live again so I can tell him I found it

[reef spoke]

AP ammo like this has less of a chance to deflect , but its still there

[thorny phoenix]

thanks @reef spoke for that info

[reef spoke]

^ good example

[agile lintel]

Current favorite in my stash

[thorny phoenix]

how do i get over m1a fetish?

[agile lintel]

not possible

[thorny phoenix]

i cant stop using that gun and spending my entire money on it

[unreal horizon]

dont its a great gun

[thorny phoenix]

i lietrally waste my entire money

its so fun

looks so cool

sounds so cool

[reef spoke]

m1a is a literal fetish gun, in tarkov and in real life, you will never escape.

[unreal horizon]

anything that shoots m61 is sick

[compact token]

m1a is great

[thorny phoenix]

and its not even that expensive

damn

[compact token]

a break action 7.62x51 pistol would probably be viable

especially if it was double barrel

[remote kettle]

guys to go eft chat 1

[compact token]

literally just two flare guns taped together

[reef spoke]

until they add velocity pen modifiers

[unreal horizon]

no that whole chat is kinda cancer

[reef spoke]

I'd like to see something along the lines of

(Velocity coefficient X Static pen value = current pen value" as a system for armor piercing rounds and such.

this format could be applied to fragmentation and such too . giving us a more immersive view of ammo and how that shit actually works.

i.e warmage would frag at a much wider velocity belt than m855a1 , but if you got m855a1 at the right speed you'd get fairly conistant fragging ( like 20%)

SOST would have a purpose then in game

[strong barn]

So SOST is like me; no purpose in game :(

[reef spoke]

SOST is better m855, but worse than m855a1

IRL, SOST is pretty fucking based

[thorny phoenix]

how do you level vitality?

[reef spoke]

SOST does great at wider ranges of velocities , so you get very consistant preformance after it hits something vs m855 which is actual dog water.

[thorny phoenix]

load in to a raid as pmc and just keep walking through wire and fire?

while healing *

[reef spoke]

I think they patched that tbh

[unreal horizon]

fire kills you very fast so be ready if you do that

[arctic crown]

die, so it levels itself XD

[small cairn]

Just be like me and rat, automatically levels it up 🤡

[supple lintel]

is the back of techlight a common spot for people to just sit in? (the spot with the fallen shelf)

[dry belfry]

400k in 21WS

[pure mist]

no? but im not expert

[dry belfry]

Get yeeted any other key

[pure mist]

found 4 cheese yesterday in ultra med lol

[dry belfry]

Sorry, were you busy helping people?

[grizzled isle]

what was the over bright flashlight called

[wary valley]

welp

[grizzled isle]

this?

[vivid ember]

its like the 2u or somthn

[haughty tulip]

If you want a really good flashlight with laser the dbal is nice

Dbal op

Klesh is a bit less effective but cheaper

And 7 U2 mounted in a weapon will make the enemy screen turn white

3/4 of yours as well

[haughty tulip]

Isn't techlight like the best spawn for gpu?

[supple lintel]

yes

[haughty tulip]

If so yes it would be common for people to camp it

Or more than camp it to find them

[rustic flax]

Anyone want to help me reach level 10? Almost there!

[haughty tulip]

A lot of players hear sound and start sneaking right away

[supple lintel]

Ive never seen someone but I realized you can kind of glitch through a shelf back there

wondering if people check that often

[haughty tulip]

If you abuse glitches you can be banned

A good player will check every corner tho

[supple lintel]

Its not really a glitch, its the only way to hop out of there but you kind of get stuck between the wall and the shelf

[haughty tulip]

That's another story

[supple lintel]

you gotta run jump to squeeze through

[haughty tulip]

Why would you want to put yourself lf ytouj that tho

If you can be nades

Naded

I don't see that as a good strat

But it might work who knows

[hearty mountain]

gasAns do not exist

[rustic flax]

Sorry thought this was beginners assistance not chad chat

[hearty mountain]

wait can u craft a gasAn?

[unreal horizon]

I think so

[haughty tulip]

I can't remember

Customs got plenty

[supple lintel]

Yeah, I was just wondering if its common and if so if its any good

[unreal horizon]

I remember being pissed to find out you can craft it

[hearty mountain]

i need 1 more fir and it seems impossible

[haughty tulip]

Crack house on the library cabinet

[opaque osprey]

lol

[thorny phoenix]

ok mr eod silenced bunnyhopping chad can you fuck off thanks

[rustic flax]

👀

[haughty tulip]

It is tho

[opaque osprey]

go linerchange

[hot tree]

same

but only seems

like

[hearty mountain]

ive had this challenge for 3 weeks +

like xD

[hot tree]

if you need it you dont find it
if you dont need it you find it

[hearty mountain]

ive found around 4 or 5 my entire time playing but died with all the fir ones

[opaque osprey]

you can find like 5 in one game on interchange

[hearty mountain]

what side?

[opaque osprey]

oli and tec stores

[hearty mountain]

thats rough

[hot tree]

looks fine to me

[hearty mountain]

i dont feel like ive died 75 times

[dry belfry]

Well

you have

[hearty mountain]

im aware

isnt max lvl 70?

[unreal horizon]

yes

[barren oasis]

yeh

[hearty mountain]

whats the point of this then

[dry belfry]

To make you feel bad about yourself

a la Tarkov

[hearty mountain]

seems logical

[unreal horizon]

planned probably

[dry belfry]

In Nikita's home country, they don't have a number for anything past 70, but he needed to cater to the American population so he added that in there

[hearty mountain]

who tf is nikita

[dry belfry]

No idea

[hearty mountain]

aint that the dude off cod ?

[barren oasis]

its just the lvl cap right now

[dry belfry]

Yes

[dire rock]

lead game dev

[vapid oracle]

yo any tips on how to get pmc pistol kills?

[hearty mountain]

thought of this dude when u said nikita

[opaque osprey]

factory

[dire rock]

i just have a pistol on me and use it to kill the rats when i see them scurrying about, but you can also try your luck on factory and go for headshots on other quest runners

[dry belfry]

Buy a Red Rebel from your friend and drop him 280k each raid on factory for it, but then after you drop the money have him run around and be bait for your pistol kills

[royal belfry]

when im selling weapons do i strip the weapon down of all the attachments then sell it?

[vapid oracle]

I've only really found chads

[vivid ember]

go only for the face

worked for me

just rush in there and try and blast somones face off, worked for me idk abt u

[hearty mountain]

is there a way that i can like deny a quest after i accepted

[dry belfry]

Just don't complete it

[hearty mountain]

yea but it pisses me off seeing like find prapor missing convoy

i only get 2k xp from it

[dry belfry]

That pisses you off?

[hearty mountain]

yea its in my tasks tab

[unreal horizon]

do all the tasks

[dry belfry]

Have you tried not being pissed off

[unreal horizon]

gotta do em

[hearty mountain]

maybe 1 day

[small cairn]

[dry belfry]

[small cairn]

U forgot the triple.kill part

[candid panther]

can someone help me for money ? i am new

[dry belfry]

I didn't want to flex on the whole chat like that

[dry belfry]

You again

Two weeks and still new?

[royal belfry]

early on what barter items should i be selling?i cant tell what i should be keeping for trades or just selling

[wary valley]

man of mass

[candid panther]

can someone help me for money ?

[wary valley]

hes broke

[dry belfry]

He's an idiot

[candid panther]

: )

[wary valley]

bad financial decisions can cause poverty

[thorny phoenix]

oh its papugo again

[wary valley]

so make sure to make good financial decisions

[candid panther]

.

[wary valley]

.

[candid panther]

idk why he have to broke my balls every time i come here

[patent wagon]

when you break your mouse due to tarkov

[dry belfry]

Because he don't like you

[wary valley]

u have 6 balls

let him break some of em

[dry belfry]

Not sure he has any

[wary valley]

hmm

[dry belfry]

Guy refuses to play the game for himself

[wary valley]

u have point

[candid panther]

yes

[pure mist]

Why that rig?

[wary valley]

its all i got

its my man of mass rig

[dry belfry]

It's got a lot of buttons

[ionic tartan]

can anyone help me learn reserve?

[haughty tulip]

Work out which barter is good for you or you want to work towards

Wait my brain lagged

Any decent barter item that gives good money you should sell

[wary valley]

i mean

[haughty tulip]

Unless it's an item you use a lot

[wary valley]

the bitcoin barter is pretty good right?

[haughty tulip]

For example I keep magnets and DVD to get glock from mechanicn

[haughty tulip]

No

It's worthless now

Btc is like 200-300k

[wary valley]

254k

[haughty tulip]

Cost of items is like around 250k

70-90k tetriz 30-45k green battery

[hearty mountain]

i got 1 btc rn but im keeping it

[candid panther]

can someone help me for money ?

[hearty mountain]

if no one responded the first 3 times prob not

[bold kernel]

is beginners assistance for na only?

[wary valley]

just go run interchange or reserve

[hearty mountain]

not trying to be a dick but like

[candid panther]

reserve is a suicide

[wary valley]

see

ur 6 balls are grapefruit sized

[candid panther]

yes

[wary valley]

if ur desperate just wait till 10 mins left on reserve

then go loot

[grizzled isle]

i call this set up Death

what are your thoughts

3 strongest flashlights in the game

supposedly

[hearty mountain]

does anyone have a map genie sc of reserve

[grizzled isle]

with flechettes

[wary valley]

it shows ur user thingy bot right

[small cairn]

Any region

[royal belfry]

@haughty tulip good money being like 8k+?

[haughty tulip]

Hmmm

I usually don't bother with anything below 15k

But everything stacks

[grizzled isle]

what

[wary valley]

japset

[haughty tulip]

You spend 20m in raid to spend 30 selling items

Not worth I guess

[grizzled isle]

lapset, kids in Finnish

[bold kernel]

ok

[haughty tulip]

Only if you don't know how to play the map

[grizzled isle]

aye

but customs in the otherhand

[candid panther]

i know the map but no how to play

[hearty mountain]

is reserve or interchange better for 2 powercrds and a circuit board

[haughty tulip]

You need to go die more often in there then

[wary valley]

probably interchange

[haughty tulip]

Reserve is good as qelln

I find those every raid

[pure mist]

You have not died enough

[small cairn]

I would stick with reserve

[haughty tulip]

drop down room gives you those 2

King also

Down at power for d2 the boxes gives I believe

[small cairn]

Cant forget all the crates or power for d2

[haughty tulip]

Yeo

The bags under king also

Gym bags

Or idk the name

[hot tree]

do you meet less players when stash running on shoreline than in interchange

[wary valley]

welp

just got fucking rat attacked

[haughty tulip]

Both are fairly safe

Same with customs

Customs is a bit less safer than those 2

But it's shorter to get a good amount of loot and extract

Easy 300k

[hearty mountain]

loading into reserve as a scav rn 🙂

[haughty tulip]

Every what? 15m raid plus 10-12m wait on scav

[haughty tulip]

If you rush places you are going to get murked

[small cairn]

As a scav it is relativly safe

[haughty tulip]

Loot your buildings and be patient to move to the next one

Reserve?

[hearty mountain]

hopefully i get a late spawn im just trying to learn thje map

[small cairn]

Most pmcs are underground

[haughty tulip]

I died 6/8 times yesterday

[small cairn]

For me it is, dunno about NA

[hearty mountain]

that is the best pepe emoji ive ever seen

[small cairn]

I can atleast 50% of the time open food crates in the middle near the plane

So it isnt THAT dangerous, atleast not IMO

Ofc depending on time left in raid

[small cairn]

🫂

[wary valley]

ive gotten rat attacked 2 times in a roll

time to run something else for the day

[tawny leaf]

anyone willing to help me out

[hearty mountain]

reserve takes me so long to load into

its only this map too

[hot tree]

interchange was the map that sometimes kicks me out when on queue

[rough scarab]

what

[kindred vault]

you unchecked the item

unselected

[rough scarab]

not sure how I did that but thanks

[hearty mountain]

can i wear a backpakc with cp fence

[opaque osprey]

yes

[hearty mountain]

i fucking love reserve

[keen sluice]

hey

can anyone here take me to shoreline?

idc about what u bring i just need someone to guide me around

[hearty mountain]

killed a player scav with a m9a3 lmao

[keen sluice]

like you can bring a hatchet for all i care

[hearty mountain]

i made out like a bandit

[haughty tulip]

Depends on the server

[keen sluice]

yikes pmc with 366 akm

[hollow minnow]

Id reccomend talking to a sherpa, or go to #pvp-lfg

[keen sluice]

been waiting for a sherpa for 3 weeks now

[royal belfry]

how important is it to find stuff for hideout progression myself? can i just buy pieces off the flea market later?

[keen sluice]

kidna useless so i just decided to go for it myself

[hollow minnow]

Did you head to the sherpa hub?

[small cairn]

Not very and yes

[keen sluice]

yes

[royal belfry]

ok

[keen sluice]

theres wayyy too many requests compared to sherpas

so a simple quest takes multiple weeks to do

and by the time a sherpa actually comes the task is done

[small cairn]

Personally I just farmed money and bought hideout stuff, instead of farming hideout stuff

[royal belfry]

so more or less for barter items: check if they lead to any interesting barters, keep found in raid quest items for later, sell anything else?

[small cairn]

More or less, yeah

[hollow minnow]

Your tryna learn shoreline right?

[hearty mountain]

eks wanna do a reserve run

[keen sluice]

save stuff thats worth a lot on flea

[small cairn]

Am in bed and hard chilling

[keen sluice]

https://tarkov-market.com

[small cairn]

That 1 mil was all I can amount to xd

[keen sluice]

yup

[hearty mountain]

ah dam is it already like 11 for u

[keen sluice]

or idc about learning shoreline i just want pk4 lol

[small cairn]

Only 9 pm atm

[hollow minnow]

Pk4?

[keen sluice]

peacekeeper 4

[bold kernel]

ufff

[hollow minnow]

Ah

[keen sluice]

i just need someone who knows the map idc about what u bring

like just someone to take me to scav spawns

and a car outside of resort

[hollow minnow]

Do you know where the pier and gas station is?

[keen sluice]

yup

or to a general extent

[hollow minnow]

They spawn a lot there

[keen sluice]

the actual shoreline is easy to navigate everywhere else is hell

[bold kernel]

i sorta know the map

[hollow minnow]

Theres also the island near tunnel

[bold kernel]

but im not 100% sure

[hollow minnow]

I call it scav island

[agile lintel]

Do you need help still itsuki?

[hearty mountain]

wait can i craft things and turn it in for my quest

[keen sluice]

yupp

[bold kernel]

yes

[agile lintel]

What are you looking to get done?

[keen sluice]

mainly: humanitarian supplies and punisher.. but healthcare privacy p2, nostalgia, anesthesia, and colleagues p1 if any of them are along the way

[agile lintel]

Ok, let me get geared up, would you like to VC?

[keen sluice]

yup any of them work

just tell me which one

[agile lintel]

lfg shoreline

[wary valley]

i see some youtubers searching bag and pocket at the same time

[barren oasis]

if you need help with shoreline i can help

[wary valley]

is that like something u unlock higher up with some skill

[haughty tulip]

Max search skill

Attention? 🤔

Max skills gives extra perks

Like max strength ignores the weight of items you have equipped

[pure mist]

Elite charisma i think

[haughty tulip]

Charisma gives the double search?

Isn't that for traders

Wasn't attention the one involved in search speed or search skill?

[pure mist]

I’m not sure maybe it’s intelligence

[haughty tulip]

That one might be

[pure mist]

Anyway, there is a skill if you get it to elite you can search 2 at the same time

[haughty tulip]

Charisma is for traders I'm sure but since I haven't maxed skills

I can't be 100% aure

[compact token]

There's a separate search skill that's for bodies, it unlocks dual search at elite. attn is for containers, but the benefits cross over - corpse search speed is affected by attn and if you have an unsearched tac rig and elite search you can search it and a filing cabinet at the same time

[haughty tulip]

Ah there you go

[wary valley]

which key is the one near tech store that has ledx chances?

[unreal horizon]

ultra med

[royal belfry]

i middle mouse clicked my gun in raid and now its blinking and i cant do anything

[unreal horizon]

go to a bush, alt f4 and reconnect

[hearty mountain]

can i do the bunker p1 as a scav?

[unreal horizon]

no

can't do any collect or find quests as scav

[hearty mountain]

can i fix items not loading by restarting game?

[compact token]

you can do find quests but not collect - items found on your scav are still eligible for quests but things like secure folders and jaeger's note won't be there

[royal belfry]

Does the ruaf roadblock on customs turn on often?

[dry belfry]

I know it turns on

but

I haven't seen it on once this wipe

I've only played maybe 25 Customs raids though so YMMV

[outer plover]

i keep having fps drops whenever i am about to engage in a gunfight or get pushed. i normally get ~110 fps. could someone please help me?

so bad i got knifed yesterday

[royal belfry]

what can you eat on a raid? i tried to eat some saury and snickers but it just kinda

made me examine my gun

[outer plover]

you should be able to eat anything, you probably pressed a keybind by accident

[fallen cargo]

helping players whit the game qwesting monny runs rest you must be age 18+ im lvl 49

[royal belfry]

it was after i dced and reconnected because i middle clicked my gun so maybe it had something to do with that

[cloud crystal]

Any tips for doing the pistol kills quest? everyone in factory is geared to the teeth

[royal belfry]

i found a bronze lion, and it sells for a ton but i see its also required for a later quest

[hearty mountain]

bro reserve is legit ww3

[royal belfry]

i dunno what to do for these larger items

[outer plover]

keep them

[hearty mountain]

like i spawned in waited 5 mins and walked out this bunker and 3 dudes were right there

[fallen cargo]

get a gun whit 7n31 ammo and aim for face or head just get that gun 1 spair magg 1 baclave 1 headset andgo in

[outer plover]

if theyre hard to come by and its a near quest keep them

[hearty mountain]

how much hp do ppl have in tarkov?

[outer plover]

its by body part

[unreal horizon]

buy a junkbox to store big stuff

[unreal horizon]

440

[hearty mountain]

dam that much??

[unreal horizon]

head or thorax 0 you die

[fallen cargo]

85-35

if you 0out the torax or head you insta kill them

[unreal horizon]

if you deal 440 to legs, arms, or stomach they die. they have 1x, 0.75x, and 1.5x dmg multipliers respectively

[cloud crystal]

why the balaclava tho

[unreal horizon]

face cover very important

[fallen cargo]

you need 3 items to be not marked and hunted buy the scaves

[royal belfry]

im accumulating a bunch of random ammo and mags from scavs should i sell those

[unreal horizon]

generally the only ones I keep are mp7 40s, val 30s, and m4 60s

[royal belfry]

and the bullets themselevs?

[unreal horizon]

other mags are so cheap you can replace whenever

I keep best and 2nd best bullets if its a caliber i use

[hearty mountain]

can u put flashlight on a tt

[wary valley]

can i get my euros into roubles?

[thorny phoenix]

stomach is 1.5x dmg?

damn

that is weird

[thorny phoenix]

what does it mean?

[royal belfry]

strip guns down before selling them right

[fallen cargo]

marked means scave wil hunt you down when you in the erea

[royal belfry]

since all the individual parts also sell?

[fallen cargo]

go ofline facktory whit just a pistol

[hollow minnow]

Yes, buy an item for euros and then sell them for roubles.

You wont make as much back, though.

[haughty tulip]

Not worth

[haughty tulip]

Some parts sell

For example a raider m4

That one will give more in parts

You need to learn which parts are worth selling

Some times it's just too much work for a really small extra profit

[velvet blade]

why do some people call scavs breeki?

[reef spoke]

S.t.a.l.k.e.r refrence

@velvet blade

[haughty tulip]

It's always on but only for those who get the extract option

Unless someone took it before you

[haughty tulip]

Reserve rat?

[haughty tulip]

You feel it now?

Reserve best map

[hearty mountain]

i hate it again

[haughty tulip]

Problem with reserve is that you need to check every single corner

Like

[cloud crystal]

Sure yeah, i got lucky and snuck up on a pmc looting a scav, so i got the last kill 🙂 Can you tell me why people reccomended me to use balaclava tho? I feel like it wouldnt do anything for protcetion?

[haughty tulip]

Even the corner of the corner in that odd corner needs to be checked

Every 5 minutes

[hearty mountain]

i was underground doing this task for prapor and 3 fully kitted dudes looking like they just came out of fucking special forces pull up on me like a firing squad and just shred me to peices

[haughty tulip]

Or there's gonna be a rat there

[tight wigeon]

Hello, I have been playing for about to days and still have not successfully completed a raid, I am really struggling to learn the maps and not die, any advice?

[haughty tulip]

Maybe not balaclava but yes wear your face mask

In dark areas that's the difference on being or not being spotted

[cloud crystal]

ahaa gotcha

[haughty tulip]

Offline raids

[small cairn]

Or if u are giga brain, just leave the checking to the slow pokes and loot the building before they get to u

[haughty tulip]

No struggles on offline raids

[small cairn]

Ofc only works for rat strats

[cloud crystal]

This act confident untill someone more confident comes, then i shit my pants

[haughty tulip]

Dude

I go in tactical rat/chad

[hearty mountain]

i did the first 2 parts but they arent showing i did them"

[haughty tulip]

I only do night time reserve

[hearty mountain]

i didnt survive but that was all

[haughty tulip]

First rule of tsrkovn

[small cairn]

Fuck kd, pray to stash value 🙏

[haughty tulip]

Do not hold an angle for too long

[small cairn]

Imagine holding angels with all this desync

Peakers advantage gang

[haughty tulip]

Second rule, weight denies tactical sneaky tactics

[hearty mountain]

so do i gotta re do this mission?

[haughty tulip]

Always watch your weight

[small cairn]

U do

[small cairn]

I'm so jelly of max strength players

[haughty tulip]

Third rule of reserve sneaky bastard, always carry rig/backpack inside backpack so you can ditch it without making sounds when you need to be sneaky

Best tactic to lose weight without making sound

[small cairn]

I don't even bother with bp's tbh when I rat, sewer manhole is the way to go xd

[cloud crystal]

does it not make sound when it hits the ground?

even if you dont "take it off"

[haughty tulip]

When you discard something inside your backpack it does not make sounds

But when you discard your equipped backpack it makes sounds like you arr smashing 2 pans together

[small cairn]

Dovah is doing some peak rat shit

[hearty mountain]

can i craft any of these?

[haughty tulip]

So imagine sneaking with full heavy metal armor

[formal bough]

Can anyone help me get some money im lvl 11 and struggling\

[haughty tulip]

Bro

I do both

Rat and Chad

I had to push 2 thermal m4 and sa-58 players in d2

[small cairn]

Preferably in the same game

[haughty tulip]

With op sks

[hearty mountain]

is as val good?

[haughty tulip]

Yes

[small cairn]

Rat/crab a chad and assume his identity

[haughty tulip]

It's expensive to run tho

[hearty mountain]

or should i sell it

[haughty tulip]

That's what I do

I killed a dude with m4 with a svf

Svd

Them went agead and killed 4playeds with his m4

I died to the 5th tho

Fookin d2 camper

Made me lose that fight

[small cairn]

I crabbed a 85 kg chad and became a 101 kg chad instead

[hearty mountain]

im going into my first night reserve i think 🙂

[haughty tulip]

I'm so glad he's dumb af and didn't durviv

[haughty tulip]

Rule number one of reserve

Night time

If you spawn in marked room pray to God

There's nothing you can do

[cloud crystal]

wait

u can spawn in marked room?P

in black pawn?

[haughty tulip]

No

You can spawn close to it

[small cairn]

He is probably talking about the one in the corner

[cloud crystal]

ah gotcha

[haughty tulip]

But you do spawn next to marked room that's next to train station

[small cairn]

The one with a weird key

[haughty tulip]

Look

Let me tell you my last experience

[uneven dock]

marked behind train as a scav

[haughty tulip]

Spawning there

[small cairn]

🗒️

[haughty tulip]

6 pmcs

[small cairn]

Lul

[haughty tulip]

Including me

One had mk18

And was one shooting everyone

3 camping with snipers

[uneven dock]

i spawn there alot

[haughty tulip]

And here I was with a God damn mp7

You know what you can do with an mp7?

[uneven dock]

i run straight to knights

[haughty tulip]

There was no running

[uneven dock]

lmao

[haughty tulip]

I was in between 6 pmcs

Running meant getting sniped bgy one of them

I sneaked obviously

I killed 2 of them

And looted 5 of them

That day I survived

[uneven dock]

good come up

[haughty tulip]

I was expecting glorious death

I swear to God I watched as so many of them died

And still more of them showed up

[uneven dock]

i run reserve alot as a scav

[haughty tulip]

I do both pmc and scav

[uneven dock]

tht probably all i do

[haughty tulip]

And that spawn is one of the worse

Spawns you can get

Same

Anyway I made it out alive because somehow night time is not camped as hard as day time

[uneven dock]

iv been bumping into raiders trying to solo them at nigth is fun

[haughty tulip]

I've been dying

[uneven dock]

yea i really like night

[haughty tulip]

There's just too much action lately

Idk why

And raiders has been acting weird

Except underground

[uneven dock]

me to i havnt been able to get out yet

[haughty tulip]

Did that last client update reset the servers people had picked?

[rancid cairn]

ok i have a question. i've been playing solo and i'm lvl 20 and i rarely get into PMC combat with other solo players. like 80% of my engagements have been trading with a 2+ group. outside of this discord is there some team making mechanism that I'm missing?

[haughty tulip]

One good way to get raiders is to try out servers

Some servers don't see too much action

[hearty mountain]

and another time i died

[haughty tulip]

Uhm

Friends I guess

[hearty mountain]

bro even night time reserve

[haughty tulip]

That's the team mechanism

Well yes its reserve

You need to expect to die

[hearty mountain]

a duo was camping next to these like shelf thingys and i killed one then the other one popped out

[uneven dock]

smh lmao i feel @hearty mountain

[rancid cairn]

this is like ... my entire tarkov experience in a nutshell

[haughty tulip]

There's always another

Play like you expect 4 players

[hearty mountain]

i get a solo but who gets a friend and camps in a prapor quest spot underground?

[uneven dock]

😩

[hearty mountain]

[haughty tulip]

I don't think people camp underground

Unless it's d2

You might have just found them

They heard you coming

You didn't hear them

That's how it goes some. Times

[hearty mountain]

i was doing the cap lock thingy

[haughty tulip]

With how much weight on you

[quick gust]

im doing a gunsmith first mission. how can i reduce a recoil in a mp133?

[haughty tulip]

That's easier to hear than people think

[hearty mountain]

a pistol and some mags

[haughty tulip]

What weight

25 weight it's easy to hear when sneaking

If you ads or rotate camera without moving you can hear it loud

[hearty mountain]

4.2kg

[haughty tulip]

If you just slow your movement and don't crouch its also dumb easy to hear

Well damn

That shouldn't be easy to hear

You probably can't hear yourself crouch slow walking

[hearty mountain]

they had aks or a gun similar they were fucking ass but still

[haughty tulip]

Do you just walk or crouch

[hearty mountain]

i walked til i got into black pawn i crouched all the way into the prapor room and right before i get to the door bam

[haughty tulip]

Well maybe you are just unlucky

Do you peek before you go inside any door

[hearty mountain]

i didnt make it to the door lmao

[uneven dock]

lol

[hearty mountain]

um u know the thingys were loot spawns

it looks like a server

[half quarry]

ck

[uneven dock]

king

[haughty tulip]

Underground

[hearty mountain]

it may be a server im not sure

[haughty tulip]

Next to power?

Like

[uneven dock]

in the back

[haughty tulip]

The room where the power for d2 is?

[hearty mountain]

once i get down they ill send a screenie

[haughty tulip]

Ok

I'm gonna take a bath

IL be back

And I'm gonna play tarky later

[hearty mountain]

can u see those?

thats where they were hiding lmfao

[uneven dock]

ohhh wow

best rat always wins

[quick gust]

nobody want to help me?

[royal belfry]

is there a compass i can get

[hearty mountain]

look up vid or the wiki

[strong barn]

check the wiki for the build @quick gust !gunsmith

!gunsmithpart1

!gunsmith

someone halp

[quick gust]

!!gunsmith

[strong barn]

i dont know the command

[royal belfry]

wait so if you go too far in woods instead of a wall you just die to landmines and a sniper?

[strong barn]

ye

[royal belfry]

thats

absolutely stupid

[strong barn]

better than invisble wall

more immersive lol

[royal belfry]

at least im fairly likely to get my stuff back from insurance?

[wary valley]

dude

[uneven dock]

100%

[royal belfry]

thats good then

[uneven dock]

always insure

[royal belfry]

shame though i had an mp133 for prapor and jagers note

are there landmines inside forest too or is it just the edge

[proper goblet]

helping anyone on woods, join Woods #3

[small cairn]

Edge and near usec camp

[uneven dock]

moslty edge one part of a camp u have to worry about too

[royal belfry]

is there a good way to telli f youre getting too close to ege

wait could i have put the note in my pouch

[uneven dock]

they have small signs with skulls on them as u get close they kindof spreAD OUT

if u die u have to go back

[wary valley]

just don't walk into the signs

[quick gust]

on wiki they want me to buy things from jaeger but i dont havve one yet

[oak sedge]

Not really a beginner question:
If I'm 40 strength, and I pop adrenaline or something and get +20, will I go above 50?
Are stim buffs in general worthless after hitting max level on a skill?

[strong barn]

mechanic has a barter for most of the parts you need at level 1 mechanic; the one or two things that are missing you gotta find or buy on flea market

[strong barn]

ya with stims it maxs at 60 :)

without stims you can only get to level 51

[haughty tulip]

that's where the power is yeah

[unreal horizon]

there are so few spots that need max str + stim it doesnt really matter

you can get onto the exit ramp on interchange tho and look out at railway

[haughty tulip]

I am almost certain that someone said do not level up strenght if you haven't maxed stamina

And I can't remember why

The true hero

Level 2 heavy trooper

Took a shot from God knows what and I survived

[unreal horizon]

it does in fact, go brrr

[red folio]

yo mike! do you know how long is takes to max out covert? want to start crabbing

[haughty tulip]

And that wasn't bad ammo

I don't know anyone max covert

[dry belfry]

@lament sundial

[haughty tulip]

I would like to know what happens

[red folio]

ty sir

[unreal horizon]

I have heavily considered crabbing across shoreline

cant find the motivation lmao

[red folio]

hmmm

[haughty tulip]

But isn't there a limit for how much xp you can get?

Like, if you abuse something ofc

[red folio]

cant just grind it out?

it's an RPG man

[haughty tulip]

Yeah you can grind skills

Tghat's for sure

[lament sundial]

Roughly 400-500 raids with max hideout management + library

[unreal horizon]

all skills have diminishing returns over the raid, I think it cools down after 5 mins of not doing it

[haughty tulip]

Damn

What's the perk of it being maxed

[red folio]

only library needed? not air filter?

[unreal horizon]

you can morph into a 🦀

[autumn wyvern]

hey dose anyone mind goin on a few runes still trying to learn the exits. pretty nice having someone who knows whats up

[haughty tulip]

ahahhaa

[lament sundial]

Air filter only levels phys skills

[haughty tulip]

nice

they won't shoot a crab

[compact token]

2:47 per raid walking at 4 bars of speed is optimal for training

[unreal horizon]

hard shell to deflect boolets

[red folio]

I only assumed covert was physical since it had to do with moving

[haughty tulip]

2 minutes 47 seconds?

[lament sundial]

No its not but nice try ❤️

[red folio]

mb

[compact token]

when you unlock the elite perk your crabbing is equally quiet on all surfaces

[haughty tulip]

oof

That's so nice

[compact token]

and it's 50% faster

[haughty tulip]

ooffff

tjat

[red folio]

holy smokes

I'm doing it

[haughty tulip]

that's broken

400-500 raids?

[red folio]

yeah. that's nothing

[compact token]

yeah so even when you're standing if you crab (50% faster too so nearly normal walking speed) you basically can't be heard

even in factory bathrooms or on labs grates

[haughty tulip]

Sorry Mr I don't have anything better to do

[unreal horizon]

50% faster? nascar 🦀

[haughty tulip]

nascar crab

[red folio]

if you did like 5 raids a day only crabbing then it's take like... 2 months

[compact token]

yep

[unreal horizon]

wurth

[red folio]

def worth

[compact token]

the skill system is not built for wipes

[haughty tulip]

That's 1 month too much

Agreed

[red folio]

just noticed. this is wrong chat lol. should be in beginners chat not assist lol

[haughty tulip]

I don't even have 400 raids

I think both work alright for any question

[red folio]

yeah. but I'd hate to accidently cover someone that actually needed help and we're all talking over em

[haughty tulip]

There's no one tho

It was dead until I posted my level 2 op faceshied

[compact token]

see now I have to ask myself if it's worth farming reserve to buy red

[red folio]

listen man.
elephants never forget

[haughty tulip]

Uhm

Isn't it easier to farm for the card itself

?

[compact token]

not really

[unreal horizon]

probably faster to grind money

[red folio]

^

[haughty tulip]

Could not tell since I don't try to go labs

Damn

[compact token]

the spawn chance is low and other people could get there first

[haughty tulip]

Yeah I do know that

[compact token]

somebody did 533 runs and then gave up

[haughty tulip]

lmao

[lament sundial]

What E1337 is telling you is not true at all btw. I'm currently in a WoW raid though so I can't correct you fast enough 😠

[red folio]

theres 5 reliable possible spawns on shoreline. and they're still like 2%

[unreal horizon]

there are 5 spawns on shoreline but that relies on you not dying, getting there first, and then the incredibly small odds of it spawning anyway

[red folio]

lmao

[red folio]

you're my hero Cal

[compact token]

okay I was close

[lament sundial]

No almsot all the shit you said was wrong

but the elite perk lol

[compact token]

10% off isn't exactly a game changer

[red folio]

that's what you think

[lament sundial]

What else did yo usay 🙂

[haughty tulip]

Holy

That's the best elite

[compact token]

ehhhh

[haughty tulip]

Perfect for sneaky tactics

[compact token]

search elite is also really good

obviously str/end too

[red folio]

its insane. no more metal/ glass walking cutting through half across the map

[lament sundial]

About covert 😠

[haughty tulip]

Yeah but that one helps you survive

[lament sundial]

Doesn't effect glass its not a "surface" technically

[compact token]

what

[haughty tulip]

What's good in having max str if you die

[red folio]

bummer

[compact token]

what the fuck

[lament sundial]

That or its bugged

[compact token]

that makes no sense

I refuse to believe its supposed to ignore glass

[haughty tulip]

All surfaces should include glass then

[lament sundial]

Cause think of a bush, it makes super loud noises in addition to footstep noises

[red folio]

imo. it's all about VIT. if you get blown up and not die...

[lament sundial]

Glass is like an addition on top of a surface

Not the actual surface

[compact token]

that doesn't make any sense

[haughty tulip]

Idk there's no need to have vit if you don't get shot cause they don't hear you

If they don't hear you they don't know you are there

[blazing robin]

does someone wanna help me unlock jager?

[haughty tulip]

Hence you can come in like a wrecking ball

[compact token]

even if it's a pane of glass on the floor it's still the surface you're walking on

[lament sundial]

Thats what I'm guessing anyway

[haughty tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/miley-cyrus-wrecking-ball-music-video-song-gif-4051940

[lament sundial]

But glass isn't effected

[haughty tulip]

Then it's bugged

[lament sundial]

There isn't any solid glass surface in this game

It's only broken

[red folio]

crunchy glass

[haughty tulip]

Ahhh

I mean

[lament sundial]

And like say if you walk on top of a glass pane (IC hex for example)

[haughty tulip]

That could be different

[lament sundial]

It uses the surface below it

[haughty tulip]

You might be as light and sneaky as you can ever be

But if you step on broken glass it's gonna make sound

[lament sundial]

I don't know if its intended or not tbh

I'm just guessing that's how they've done it

As like a surface modifier but not an actual surface

Not 100% btw, just actually guessing so take that with salt

However, the stuff I do know

No I don't, cause I can't remember which headset it was lmao

[haughty tulip]

I do believe it's not an actual surface

[lament sundial]

I was testing all the headsets with a friend who has 51 perception, and one of the headsets was broken. He could ALWAYS hear me. It was either M32's or Comtacs.

[red folio]

I'd sau it's comtacs

[lament sundial]

I want to say M32's cause they're new. But they have been tweaking comtacs as well

[red folio]

say*

[lament sundial]

Yeah I would too

[red folio]

I only use those 2 as well

and I've had better results with Comtacs

[winter plume]

I agree.. I like comtacs as well or sordins but thats me.

[lament sundial]

If a person can see you, it seems to not "ignore" the covert skill but make it less effective

[haughty tulip]

I use gssh

No better way to hear sound than a headset with ear rape included

[winter plume]

Lol i was going to say.. the treble is unreal

[haughty tulip]

Yes

[red folio]

I remember not caring too much back in the day about ears since people would just throw grenades to make you deaf, and they all did roughly the same thing. but now there's a difference

[haughty tulip]

But you can hear the sneakiest of players

[red folio]

ok. I'm going crabbing

gotta start someday

[haughty tulip]

I crab enough on my raids

So that's good for me

[lament sundial]

Aight got a break in my raid

Max covert isn't TOO useful

It's like really good but in niche areas

[red folio]

you speak ill of a tarkovian blessing?

[haughty tulip]

Trust me

Sneaky is good

[red folio]

I'd like to just not be heard from 7 years away

[lament sundial]

It's good, but not as good as it sounds by a long shot

[haughty tulip]

I've survived 11 runs in a row in reserve thanks to sneaky plays

[lament sundial]

Lowest speed standing up and you can be seen. You can still be heard roughly 10 meters out

[haughty tulip]

Idk mine it's at 7 and I'm thankful for being sneaky player

[lament sundial]

You are however, COMPLETELY silent. slow crouching

[red folio]

that's what I want

[lament sundial]

But its only useful is very niche areas

[red folio]

that halo crouch walking

[haughty tulip]

Well there you go

I crouch walk
