[velvet mason]

Just bring a ks23 with sharp10 and a diaper rig

[unreal horizon]

^

[pure marsh]

Don't bring anything good to Labs. An okay weapon with good ammo is all you need

[strong mortar]

is drop trading against the rules? its not RMT so idk why it would be.

[velvet mason]

Yea it is

[pure marsh]

It's against TOS

And this discords rules for sure

[strong mortar]

ooooo ic

wow

[velvet mason]

You won’t get in trouble for doing it a little bit though... it’s like takigg by your friends gear out if he died

[strong mortar]

guess im not playing runescape rn

[pure mist]

ks is all you need

[pure marsh]

In that case *An amazing weapon

[pure mist]

ks, rat rig, shattered

ultimate labs loadout

[pure marsh]

Facts

[velvet mason]

Yep I’m legs

[strong mortar]

I mean like when I was a bot my friends would bring me bags of gear to use and drop them

[cosmic tinsel]

me rn

[slow night]

do you just leg the raiders?

[strong mortar]

or like toss me a mag bro

[pure mist]

giveme that kappa

[pure marsh]

You went to reserves without me?

[cosmic tinsel]

do your quests

[velvet mason]

You can 1 tap raider legs yes

[pure marsh]

Meanie pants

[pure mist]

next wipe ig, too late to start now

[cosmic tinsel]

im probably good for another 1-2 before i get back to work - you on?

[velvet mason]

Raider usually have hats out tho so you can also headshot them

[pure marsh]

No sadly. I didn't go home for lunch

I was just being an ass

[cosmic tinsel]

XD

[unreal horizon]

really?

[pure marsh]

You cannot

[velvet mason]

Yea

I’ve personally done it

[unreal horizon]

on the battlebuddy app you cant, i'm not sure

[pure marsh]

It takes 10 shrap 10 pellets into one leg since raiders have 750 hp

If you headshot or stomach then yes but on a singular leg, no

[velvet mason]

All I know is I’ve 1 tapped several raiders on labs in the legs

[slow night]

alright, i think i’ll just go chad one more since i have a kit, then i’ll go ks23 till i finish it

[pure marsh]

Samples is an optional quest just FYI

[velvet mason]

Not req for kappa

[pure marsh]

Exactly

[cosmic tinsel]

people keep tellin him

im tellin him go for it tho

[velvet mason]

I don’t do quests that arnt req for kappa personally

But yo each their own

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

play the game in the way that is the most fun for you

my mantra

[velvet mason]

That’s the best part of tarkov

Do what you wanna do

[pure marsh]

"Obdolbos" is the only fucking one I'm missing. I've been to green, black, blue, red and violet like 50 times and none

😓

[velvet mason]

Lol buy a sanitary key

Maybe you get lucky

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, that ones a weird one. i go like, weeks without seeing it and then find 4 in a raid

blue marked key is real good for a pile of stims

to holdens point

[slow night]

i have obdolbos done, not sure where i got it but it wasn’t on labs i don’t think

i just need meldonin, AHF1-M, and 3-b-TG

[cosmic tinsel]

those should be quick

[velvet mason]

Those r common

[pure mist]

seen it alot on labs

even tho i don't play labs that much

[pure marsh]

Those are the ezpz ones

[cosmic tinsel]

consider keepin a blue marked key on you if you can swing it and wanna rat for late raid

[velvet mason]

I’ll be home from work in a bit if you want help on labs ... I have all keys but green I think

[cosmic tinsel]

right across from green where you'll be lookin anyway

[pure marsh]

I'll give a green for 3,000 cans of peas

[velvet mason]

Lo I could buy one but I usually can find it on labs just haven’t been lucky

It’s spawns by blue and red

[bold kernel]

I just started so I have no clue what I am doing. Got blinded and then smacked with an axe.

[pure marsh]

What a beautiful welcome to Tarkov

[bold kernel]

Kinda besides the fact that it scared me, haha.

[cosmic tinsel]

tarkov is a horror game ha

[slow night]

yeah i’ve got keycard with blue marking, just haven’t made it there yet. labs is rough

[cosmic tinsel]

its rough

if you want me to show you some rat moves i'd be happy to

[unreal horizon]

you got bullied by the flashbang shotgun 😦

[slow night]

i’ll probably be on in ~2 hours, i’d love some rat tips

[pure marsh]

It wasn't me. I'm at work

[scenic mesa]

can i get someones help with delivery from the past? i cant do it alone lmao

[solid moat]

join a 5 man factory group on the tarkov discord

[velvet mason]

5 man factory is how to get some trash gear to start but you will learn nothing lol

[small cairn]

Mellow was referring to the 2nd part of delivery from the past, where if you queue as 5 man, then you won't meet another PMC outside of your group

[pure marsh]

Yeah, ya silly salmon

[cosmic tinsel]

this is the funniest thing that this channel has done in a while

[cosmic tinsel]

i can do my best to gigachad factory for you

if you cant get a 5stack

[small cairn]

I mean we would atleast be 3

so only 2 more

[velvet mason]

This is the way to geared and kill the pmcs

[cosmic tinsel]

tru

[scenic mesa]

alright, i might try and get the folder real quick but ill see how that goes lmao

might just be a hatchling for a bit

[pure marsh]

That's what I call my wife lmao

[scenic mesa]

should i hatchling at night or is that just a dumb idea lmao

[snow gate]

Do Raiders and Bodyguards count as a "Boss" in the post-raid EXP screen? Says I killed a Boss on Reserve but I didn't see Gluhar's name.

[small cairn]

Atleast bring a pistol, but u can

[small cairn]

They do, yes

[snow gate]

Ok thanks I was a little confused why I got so much XP from a few scavs. I was sniping and couldn't see gear properly.

[hot tree]

if you still need people i can join with a pistol

[scenic mesa]

yea, i havent done anything yet so you can join if u wanna

[hot tree]

wait are you EU or NA

[scenic mesa]

na

[hot tree]

im eu but i can join you

[scenic mesa]

alright, ill be in 2 man 9

[hot tree]

i cant join vc just trying to fill the group so you get a 5 man

[scenic mesa]

ah ok, i still gotta do the first part, idk how long thats gonna take me

[bold kernel]

LFG | NA | Im 16 | Im new (level 8 just got the game yesterday) | Im mature | Need help doing tasks

[cosmic tinsel]

#pvp-lfg might be good for you too

[bold kernel]

ok

[hot tree]

just ping me if you get it if im offline in discord that means i sleep ;d

[scenic mesa]

alright, i think i got someone on the sherpa hub to help me, ill see how it goes and if i need help ill @ u

[merry dust]

what’s a pmc

[unreal horizon]

wym

like just a player?

[cosmic tinsel]

player main character, dont @ me

[crystal zenith]

any tips on how to get better at pvp? i heard people say run factory as scav alot

[cosmic tinsel]

i ran it as a pmc with cheap loadouts - shotguns, pp-19 vityaz

spammed it a lot until i could tell that i was only losing to the best players

[crystal zenith]

ight, cuz i feel like i can barley out gun a scav hahah

[cosmic tinsel]

yep, its tough, takes practice 😄

[crystal zenith]

haha, time to practice i guess!

[cosmic tinsel]

honestly at level 4 you're probably gonna wanna avoid players as much as you can early

at least wait until you can get BT off of flea

[cinder hound]

is pp ammo good?

[pure marsh]

5.45?

[arctic atlas]

can anyone explaine

pls axplaine

how a man can shoot me without even seeing me

cheaterman

how

i heard some hacker stuff before he "peaked" around the corner

is these some r6 like device that allows you to see trough doors?

or is this man just hacking

[unreal horizon]

desync

[arctic atlas]

desync he says..... de. sync

horse shit

hes hacking

[reef prairie]

Could also be just a cheeky angle

[unreal horizon]

from my limited understanding, shitty net code leads to heavy peekers advantage

[arctic atlas]

is it possible he had some sort of mirror? i saw his gun but never saw him peak

are there mirrors?

[cosmic tinsel]

its my go to in the first week of wipe

[arctic atlas]

45 degree mirrors?

[reef prairie]

You can blindfire

[arctic atlas]

oh

ok

yeah that prob it then

[reef prairie]

Only right side tho

[unreal horizon]

hacker he says lmfao

[arctic atlas]

fuck

bruh

insta headshot

only stepped once

lil sus

:tf:

[unreal horizon]

if it was labs def possible, lots of cheaters lately

[cosmic tinsel]

sometimes you get lucky

[arctic atlas]

but u peaked....

this man did not

[cosmic tinsel]

i shot as i peaked

[arctic atlas]

yeah

[cosmic tinsel]

cant confirm that he saw me or not

[arctic atlas]

fbut u peaked

[unreal horizon]

desync is real

[arctic atlas]

bruh, i gots 20/20 vision, i would see

[cosmic tinsel]

you can see the future?

[arctic atlas]

i can se the present

[unreal horizon]

dude like you dont understand, you're on his screen, but he literally is not on yours due to desync

[arctic atlas]

horse raddish

[unreal horizon]

whatever

[cosmic tinsel]

i mean in any event

report him and go

[unreal horizon]

take it or leave it

[arctic atlas]

how would one report a man

[cosmic tinsel]

after you die click the report icon next to his name

[arctic atlas]

10 4

will do

exploiting is as bad as hacking

so i will report

[unreal horizon]

exploiting what?

[arctic atlas]

desync

duh

[unreal horizon]

you're trolling right?

[cosmic tinsel]

you're gonna do that... every game

[arctic atlas]

yeah

[cosmic tinsel]

heres an npc desync killing me

you cant report that

[arctic atlas]

he hould be banished

pathetic....

are the servers down for any of yall aswell?

or is it me

the game works fine but certain things dont work

like my inventory dont load

is it a me problem or is it known?

[cosmic tinsel]

i am havin no issues

[unreal horizon]

im getting a bit of slowness

scope zoom is suuuuuuper delayed, rest is fine

[arctic atlas]

but like with the ui, do yall get those problems?

[unreal horizon]

sometimes

[arctic atlas]

interesting

[pure marsh]

Did something change? These beginners chat have been frisky more often

[unreal horizon]

idk man

[cosmic tinsel]

we're banishing npcs 😄

[pure marsh]

End of wipe jitters maybe?

[cosmic tinsel]

idk

crazy energy

[pure marsh]

I've been having so much fun with leg meta tho

People just fold

[cosmic tinsel]

its so good

have you played with mag buck

two tap outta a 153 sheeesh

[pure marsh]

I have good sire, my favorite is going prone then spraying. No one ever expects it

Or on stairs

[dense rain]

can anyone help me out with tasks?

[pure marsh]

5 cans of peas good sir

[winter plume]

That happened to me on IC the other day. Guy went prone on me and threw me completely off. I thought this was Cod and started to bunny hop.

[pure marsh]

Yup, most people expect a crouch or standing opponent. I just want your feet

[winter plume]

lol and the feet they got forsure. RIP me. I'll have to give this a go. I mean this late into it.. might as well try it out.

[pure marsh]

Leg meta?

Or going prone?

[bold kernel]

Lmfao

[winter plume]

Leg meta / prone combo. 2 for 1 haha. I run prone here and there but rarely. I still with couch walk mainly..

[pure marsh]

If you're going to go leg meta, it's going to take some practice

[bold kernel]

Meta sucks anyways do what’s fun, bullets hurt if you get hit with them no matter where it is

[pure marsh]

Like you have to fight the center mass instinct and aim for the wiggly bois

[bold kernel]

Even just shooting to scare someone is fun.

[bold kernel]

Or, leg shot them to a broken leg then tap their chest, 😂

Easy to hit when they can’t run

[pure marsh]

Most people, like myself, are always on painkillers 🤷

[bold kernel]

Lol, painkillers won’t stop a few solid rounds still

[pure marsh]

And I usually pop a propital and ETG-C once I'm in cover

Then hard PUSH

[bold kernel]

Yeah

im generally just rocking a morphine ive never gotten too into the stims yet

[velvet mason]

Pre pk is good I don’t always do it because it makes my game look weird but if I don’t I’ll have propital on hot key

[unreal horizon]

always bring a propital, theyre cheap and will save you more than you think

[bold kernel]

yeah

[pure marsh]

I'm so used to how PKs make it look that's like my normal lmao

[bold kernel]

i have not been using painkillers much latley tbh lol

[unreal horizon]

why?

theyre like the most important med

[arctic atlas]

WOOO

[bold kernel]

either dying too soon for it to matter, or winning the fights without getting wrecked in the process lol.

[arctic atlas]

LETS GO I JUST STOLE A MANS WHOE LIFE SAVINGS

[unreal horizon]

ok

[bold kernel]

im aware, im lv42 i always have a golden star sitting in my container lol

[arctic atlas]

STRAIGHT UP HOMICDE

[bold kernel]

i feel like going into solo raids are too intense, i want to but i just cant get myself to do it. its not gear fear, ill gladly bring a thermal on a meta m4 to factory or something. but i just cant go into a solo raid, i feel like there is something holding me back. i do alot better in solo raids but once again, i cant get myself to load into a raid. im lvl21 and i play with two other people about everyday for about a month now. i have done maybe 20 solo out of my 120 raids. any tips or something to get past this huge barrier that is blocking my progress?

[velvet mason]

solo is best way to plau

[unreal horizon]

solo teaches you the most

[bold kernel]

the best group players are the ones that know how to solo and carry themselves first.

[pure marsh]

The way I got used to it was by just doing it. You might have a rough raid or two but you'll become independent

[velvet mason]

@bold kerneljust go slow and learn the timing of the spawns so then u know if i spawn at x and run to this loot spot i can expct to see people from spawns at thsi time if they also come here

[unreal horizon]

just pick a goal for the raid, and go do it

[bold kernel]

allright. thank you

remember that you can learn something from every death, most of the time.

[rough scarab]

the goal can just be hitting stashes if thats what you want to do to ease into taking good gear

[pure marsh]

I definitely suggest using shadow play or some recording software. Set it for one to two minutes and the moment you die, press the hot key

You'll learn sooooo much

[bold kernel]

so i should bring somewhat bad stuff until i get used to goin solo. i already know what to do, where the spawns/extracts/stashes are, and how to learn from deaths, i use the nidvia geforce for the shadowplay and all that stuff, thank you for helping me.

[bold kernel]

like my TK the other day where my mind flipped the off switch and i dont even have recollection of firing the first bullet at my teammates head by accident LMFAO.

[unreal horizon]

good gear will keep you alive, but dont bring more than you want to lose

[pure marsh]

I wouldn't say to bring "bad" gear. Just what you're comfortable with

No need to put yourself at an unnecessary disadvantage while trying to find a new way to play

[bold kernel]

i was thinking maybe a stock adar with a pix12 and low profile gas block, maybe a bank robber with two spare mags with m856a1, 4 grenades in my pockets, a salewa in my rig, scav backpack, and more healing in my beta. ZHUK-3 armor and ratnik helmet

gear wont bring skill, armor wont maintain life, but the odd's go up ever so slightly if you make smart choices with what you got to use, but map knowladge and information are king in tarkov.

point firing is more useful than it seems at times too

[white cape]

early on, I would run my scav and use that gear, so if i lost it i didnt feel like i lost anything

[native tartan]

make sure to grab a esmarch

[unreal horizon]

good armor means you can play like a dumbass once and maybe not get punished

[bold kernel]

allright

[unreal horizon]

its not meant to eat bullets for you though

[bold kernel]

yeah, also means i can sell a killa armor that i stole with a chest shot with a round worth 300-500 rubles lmfao

[unreal horizon]

wut

[bold kernel]

137 grand for the cost of a 300 ruble bullet,

[pure marsh]

What if I always play like a dumbass?

[bold kernel]

hello death my old friend...

[unreal horizon]

50/50 right?

[pure marsh]

Big 50/50

[velvet mason]

beautiful game

[pure mist]

that lowest graphics settings?

[velvet mason]

no

on shadows maybe tho

everything else is high

this was taken with nvidia filters tho

[pure mist]

low quality screenshot?

it looks terrible man

[velvet mason]

lmao

its how i like it

bright

[unreal horizon]

i mean the game on max everything is shitty for seeing people

[pure mist]

trees look like a painting

[velvet mason]

yeah

but i can spot people from a mile away

[strong barn]

I have mine on low because Im colorblind af and cant see the minimal.differences in color at higher settings. especially players; theyre invisible green men in green trees lol

[velvet mason]

look how beautiful this game is

[jolly isle]

Lol can't even see anything

All pich black

[velvet mason]

the stars in the cloud breaks in th sky

the purple and blues

night raids are so peaceful

[remote kettle]

unless theres a thermal boi in it

[velvet mason]

true right after i took this s/s i killed a man right where i am looking in the hole in the fence

[stark panther]

Need help on some tasks currently trying to get pistol kill but only got one so far

[unreal horizon]

not really something anyone can help with, just spam factory raids, you'll get it

[cosmic tinsel]

thats a real volume one

volume of quests

pickups are a lot easier to help with

[dry belfry]

I know a guy who can help with that quest

@small cairn

[velvet blade]

can I remove this iron sight from PP-9? It looks awkward with the reflex sight

[unreal horizon]

I think its just build in

[velvet mason]

iron sight is best this about the kedr

no red dot needed

[unreal horizon]

the irons are fine, you'll probably be aiming legs you dont need pinpoint accuracy

[velvet mason]

sp7 legs or PBM head

i like the pbm

its pens teir 4 only tho

anyone wanna play reserve for fun? willing to take new player with

[icy heart]

I will....I new af though

[velvet mason]

Hey does anyone think they could help me get a part off skier ll4

I need it to complete a task but I’m 3 levels short of ll4

[small cairn]

[dry belfry]

True

[royal belfry]

hopw come i didnt get the trust regain and no offence quests for turning in chemical part 4?

[dry belfry]

What are our thoughts on the fuckin APC in the new streets trailer

[unreal horizon]

boss

[dry belfry]

The boss is the literal APC

[unreal horizon]

seems to have a few guards as well as DN

[dark arrow]

i've almost completed punisher questline im on pt 4 now

is killing people going up to the resort a good way to get some pmc kills

[dry belfry]

Yeah, I saw the DN. Don't know if anyone else caught it ,they slid it in there pretty sneakily

[unreal horizon]

it was well done

honestly though the entire production is great

[dry belfry]

Yeah, I like the way they do those videos

[languid plover]

Hi friends, so I'm in doubt if I spawn as a scav, is there only going to be scavs in the match or i can find pmc players?

[dry belfry]

Everytime you spawn in as a scav, there HAS to be at least 1 PMC left on the map

There could also be other player scavs

And AI scavs as well

[languid plover]

well, it explains why i never found pmc spawning as scav, thanks than mate

[rough scarab]

there will be some raids where pmcs stay on the map super late

so just always be on edge

or you might spawn pretty early into the raid

[bold kernel]

Anyone up for showing me around either Interchange or Reserve? My quests are there but I don't really feel confident on either map.

[cunning current]

yo im resetting my account and dont want to delete stuff, anyone want some keys and cases?

[crystal rain]

heheh

[cunning current]

you want?

[dreamy turtle]

lul

[cunning current]

add me disc

[sand herald]

It is recommended you don't give them all at once, I believe BSG has set a system against boosters.

[crystal rain]

^

[cunning current]

ill just drop a sicc

with a bunch of keys

[dreamy turtle]

ill take a red card

[sand herald]

Dropping a sicc is quite dangerous.

[crystal rain]

ill give you 1 rubel for that s i cc

[cunning current]

then ill drop the contents of the sicc

[crystal rain]

nah that sicc is mine

[sand herald]

Or just drop the sicc, have them search it, take the keys, then take the sicc back.

[cunning current]

i dont really play tark anymore so not really worried

its either dropping it or deleting it

[dreamy turtle]

delete it

[sand herald]

i mean if you don't care about your account either sure, go ahead

[velvet mason]

ill take red

lmk

https://i.imgur.com/ks2lb1e.png oh wait i need green

[bold kernel]

dude come on

i was trying to extract from customs old gas station

[dreamy turtle]

ill take that red

[bold kernel]

and it wouldnt let me

[velvet mason]

was the smoke there?

[dreamy turtle]

its not always open

[crystal rain]

@bold kernel did the extract have ???s?

cause theres 2 extracts there

[velvet mason]

smoke needs to be green if its your pmc exit

[crystal rain]

if youre pmc then flares need to be lit

if youre a scav then you gotta go to the side at the giant red door

I had to learn that the hard way

[velvet mason]

i dont scav so i cant confirm

[crystal rain]

scav extract

vs pmc extract

[crystal rain]

yeah my first time learning I was pretty low level with a ton of kitted out stuff as a scav

and that happened

[merry dust]

whats pst ammo

[velvet mason]

9mm

pst-gzh

decent starter ammo

[merry dust]

is it gonna kill somebody without needing 1923 shots?

because i have 500 of it

[velvet mason]

depend on armor

but its like 1 step under ap6.3

[unreal horizon]

you're gonna need to aim face or legs tbh

[merry dust]

no clue what that is either

[velvet mason]

it can pen tier 4

[merry dust]

why legs?

[unreal horizon]

leg meta

no armor there

[velvet mason]

if ur gonna leg meta just use quake maker

[merry dust]

thats boring

im using an mp443

since i have gear fear

[velvet mason]

yea go face

[merry dust]

and i dont have flea market yet either

[sudden juniper]

pstgzh is not one step under ap

[velvet mason]

u can learn reserve and find alot of bt for 545 ak

[sudden juniper]

pst has low flesh damage and low pen so all around shitty ammo tbh

[velvet mason]

good way to get around not having flea or $$$

[unreal horizon]

it literally is

[sudden juniper]

if you are fighting scavs why not

the step is 5 fucking feet tall then lol

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[sudden juniper]

it's right under ap in terms of armor pen

but it's a huge difference

[velvet mason]

not that much

[sudden juniper]

at this point youre not killing any pmcs with it

[merry dust]

what im hearing here is that its ass but not ass?

[velvet mason]

7n is much better

[sudden juniper]

holden what

[unreal horizon]

ass, but the best 9x19 you've got 🤷

[merry dust]

welp

time to just go do like 74 raids in hopes of extracting sucessfully

[sudden juniper]

tbh

[merry dust]

extract campers

[sudden juniper]

without gear just focus on getting loot and getting raids done

im sure you werent focusing on pvp already anyways with the grach

[merry dust]

so i need a good loot run way tho

[velvet mason]

download "battle buddy" its made by veritas and you can compare ammo to armor

[sudden juniper]

http://i.prntscr.com/RbeoD9YxRgyA-ddnaXJXeg.png

oops wrong picture

[merry dust]

since im normally just running around customs and trying to extract at smugglers boat

[sudden juniper]

http://i.prntscr.com/e3xAT8nXRgSluaZbMp3lzA.png

[haughty tulip]

That ain't safe

[sudden juniper]

not that much 🤔

[haughty tulip]

You want to extract on the corners of the map

[merry dust]

i can tell

tons of extract campers

but in hopes of getting slight pvp

[sudden juniper]

people dont relaly camp smugglers

it's more so that it's a high trafficed area

[merry dust]

so far ive met a few

[haughty tulip]

But it's easy to spot you

[merry dust]

like maybe 1/3 runs there is

[sudden juniper]

yes sniper roadblock is pretty exposed

[haughty tulip]

And it's a spot where dorms players extract from

[sudden juniper]

^

[velvet mason]

if ap has that much pen now they buffed it. it used to be low 30s

[haughty tulip]

So more than "extract campers" more like dorms chads trying to leave

And you aren't gonna take the extract before me mentality

Customs stash run, take your time

Loot buildings

Get scav kills

[sudden juniper]

holden when was the last time you played this game then lol

[merry dust]

shotgun scavs are everywhere man its really fucking hard

[unreal horizon]

bro I gotta be honest no one camps customs

its just not profitable

[haughty tulip]

Scavs give you like 10 iminutes to aim at them and shoot them in the head

[dreamy turtle]

customs has literally no loot

[haughty tulip]

Says who

[merry dust]

like he said not extract campers more like random people leaving at the same time

[sudden juniper]

people camp dorms a lot

[merry dust]

says me bruh im new af

[haughty tulip]

It might not be the most juicy map but it has loot

[sudden juniper]

people like to rat in the 5000 bushes when they hear shots

[merry dust]

can you give me a route?

[haughty tulip]

Pls people are camping hard lately

[dreamy turtle]

theres literally like 2 good loot spots in customs

and neither are that good

[sudden juniper]

uhm

[haughty tulip]

Watch a stash run video for customs

[sudden juniper]

farming marked room is insanely profitable

plus there are plentiful stashes usually unlooted

[merry dust]

then give a good map?

[dreamy turtle]

or i can farm the whole map on reserve

[haughty tulip]

If it spawns anything of value

[sudden juniper]

I said farming it

[dreamy turtle]

2 marked rooms + other rooms of value

[velvet mason]

@sudden juniperap 6.3 only has 30 pen i was looking at wrong stat in your picture. yes it not that much better

[haughty tulip]

If you can't survive customs you won't survive others

[sudden juniper]

you might not get anyhting good a few raids

[dark dagger]

People camp hella hard two fives mans fighting each other but neither moving for 30 minutes it’s exhausting

[haughty tulip]

Unless you go stash hunting in IC or Shoreline

[haughty tulip]

Go kill them

[merry dust]

why do you think im in customs man

[haughty tulip]

Then they gotta move

[sudden juniper]

it's exponential the increase from pst is still huge

[haughty tulip]

I saw you mention customs

[dark dagger]

I was part of one of the five mans

[haughty tulip]

Show them how it's done

[merry dust]

yeah cause im bad

[haughty tulip]

Everyone is bad at the start

[merry dust]

also should i bring food and water?

because i notice it runs out quickly

[haughty tulip]

I'm still bad at the game

[sudden juniper]

lol

[velvet mason]

right but in terms of armor its really not you cant pen tier 5 until u use 7n so is it really that much better ?

[sudden juniper]

dont bring food and water

[merry dust]

what if i starve tho

[haughty tulip]

You can do both, take or don't, depending on what your plans are

[sudden juniper]

especially with customs there are a lot of food spawns

[haughty tulip]

But there's plenty of food/water there

[sudden juniper]

if your stomach gets black you should head to extract anyyways if you dont have a CMS

[haughty tulip]

Or head to med spawns to get one if you are lucky

[velvet mason]

bring ur lunch

[merry dust]

i have a CAR kit cheese splint esmarch and a bandage

[haughty tulip]

Where cms at

[velvet mason]

hes new i think

[haughty tulip]

What lvl

[sudden juniper]

holden: pst can barely pen paca sometimes ap 6.3 is still viable that is the difference and it is a big one

[merry dust]

me?

[dark dagger]

You’re better off with hemo and a salewa

[haughty tulip]

ye

[merry dust]

2

level 2.

[haughty tulip]

Well welcome to tarkov, you are gonna die a lot before you can extract

And it does not get better

[merry dust]

wrong reply?

[haughty tulip]

No

Learn map

Learn routes

[sudden juniper]

salewas run quick without flea market and you craft everything up

[haughty tulip]

Spawns, ammo, armor

[dark dagger]

Been here for a bit, I know exactly how the game plays, just offering advice

[haughty tulip]

Idk what you are telling me that for tho

[sudden juniper]

nyar you prob progressed to lvl 10 quickly

[haughty tulip]

I am asleep so I might be confused af

[dark dagger]

Cuz you told me welcome to tarkov you’re gonna die

[haughty tulip]

Oh

ohhhhh

[sudden juniper]

without flea salewas and hemostats every raid would be dumb

[merry dust]

whats a good armor i can get

[haughty tulip]

I actually did erply wrong person

lol

[sudden juniper]

no armor 😂

[dark dagger]

I’ve only been playing for a month

[haughty tulip]

Anything works to stop scavs for now

But if it's a player there's nothing you can bring to avoid getting shot

[merry dust]

thats what i thought lmao

[haughty tulip]

I did not notice

I asleep

[dark dagger]

I’m only level 25, I just watched videos on medical loot spawns

[merry dust]

ill see what i can find

[haughty tulip]

[merry dust]

mood

[haughty tulip]

Don't worry about armor

Worry about ammo

[velvet mason]

reserve is good for them

[haughty tulip]

Yes

[dark dagger]

Yep

[haughty tulip]

If you survive

[dark dagger]

Stuff everything in you’re butt

[dreamy turtle]

surviving omegalul

couldnt be me

[merry dust]

is PACA decent?

[velvet mason]

no

[dreamy turtle]

no

[haughty tulip]

I can tell you that night time reserve is not hot right now

I just did raiders without anyone messing with me

[merry dust]

all i got is pst gzh

[haughty tulip]

I'm still selling stuff

[dark dagger]

Not in the current wipe stage, everyone is running meta ammo rn

[merry dust]

understood

[velvet mason]

night reserve is peaceful all rats

🐭

[sudden juniper]

paca is shit wipe-round tbh

[merry dust]

im a level 2 man spare some slack?

[haughty tulip]

If you find a scav shoot him in the head, if you find a pmc shoot him in stomach/legs

[sudden juniper]

paca doesnt help me against scavs

[dark dagger]

That’s why I was letting ya know

[dreamy turtle]

paca is good for like the first hour of wipe lol

[haughty tulip]

It does

If they run shotgun

[sudden juniper]

doesnt buckshot pen

[velvet mason]

it helps vrs shotgun scav 4sure

no

[dreamy turtle]

prob still worth running over nothing it'll stop scavs from one shotting you

[merry dust]

appreciate it

[velvet mason]

buckshot has 0 pen

[haughty tulip]

If buckshot could pen it would be too op

[merry dust]

theres like a 682 thingy if thats any better

[unreal horizon]

shouldnt

[dark dagger]

Just focus on tasks and leveling up for now

[sudden juniper]

most of my scav encounters they dont notice me or I can shoot from a different angle

[haughty tulip]

I mean scavs won't shoot thorax anyway

[sudden juniper]

I dont understand scav protection

[haughty tulip]

They will slowly take away one limb at a time

[merry dust]

tasks are hard for me since i have no clue how to do them

[sudden juniper]

either good armor or no armor for me

[merry dust]

also why do i immediately die if i get a blacked limb

[haughty tulip]

Well there's no better protection than to shoot them in the head before they shoot you

[sudden juniper]

you dont

[crisp nest]

u dont

[sudden juniper]

unless its a black thorax or head

[merry dust]

and how do you fix a blacked limb

[crisp nest]

theres a wiki

theres videos

[sudden juniper]

CMS or surv-12 kit @merry dust

[merry dust]

and im lazy

[dark dagger]

There’s plenty of guides on YouTube, I recommend watching the video and following along on an offline raid, then attempting it in a online raid

[haughty tulip]

Yes

[crisp nest]

then enjoy not progressing

[sudden juniper]

erv1s likes to be unhelpful in a channel dedicated to helping beginners lol

[haughty tulip]

Guides and this chat is your way to make the most out of your spent money

[merry dust]

i also fully read the wiki

[velvet mason]

this armor is a new players best friend https://i.imgur.com/uzVn2vo.png

its the holy grail

[haughty tulip]

Idk bro

[merry dust]

im just gonna try to find a good route

[crisp nest]

no they're too lazy to read or watch a 3 minute guide

[dark dagger]

I was down on my luck for awhile, now I’ve finally broken 2 mil xD

[merry dust]

whats it called?

[haughty tulip]

M993 HK chad in customs says otherwise

[crisp nest]

6b3tm

[haughty tulip]

[sudden juniper]

6b3tm is ok

[velvet mason]

its the rat armor

[dark dagger]

It’s a nice rat rig

[haughty tulip]

It is

But man those dudes running m993 in customs

[crisp nest]

better armor wont save you

because of m995

[bold kernel]

@unreal horizon i did it

[haughty tulip]

Yeah

[bold kernel]

i finally extracted from customs

no way

[crisp nest]

brb gonna eat nodles

[velvet mason]

👏

[dark dagger]

M995, M61, M993, SAA AP

Take your pick they’ll all clap you.

[haughty tulip]

Hex or slick

[sudden juniper]

lol

class 6 is waste of money

[haughty tulip]

Matters not

[bold kernel]

i have no room for any of my loot

[dark dagger]

Tv and M1 rigs all day

[merry dust]

cant get it since i dont have flea market

[sudden juniper]

@bold kernel stack backpacks

can you fit your mpbss into the scav bag

[bold kernel]

theres already a bag there

[sudden juniper]

if theres stuff in both 🤷‍♀️

open up that bag and put the mpbss in it

[dark dagger]

PP-91 with PBM is a good rat gun

[sudden juniper]

you can infinitely stack backpacks

pbm has low flesh damage

[merry dust]

i dont think i can buy those without flea market

[dreamy turtle]

sp7

[dark dagger]

It has decent Pen

[dreamy turtle]

can you get it from jaeger

i think

[velvet mason]

sp7 is leg meta ammo

[sudden juniper]

i wouldnt worry about that at the moment

painkillers let you run on blacked legs

[dark dagger]

Morphine as well

[sudden juniper]

if you do get blacked out in something more than 1 or 2 arms I would just head to extract anyways

morphine is a PK

[velvet mason]

the slick barter makes them cheap af tho if u wanna run tier 6

save your cordura and aramid

or make in the lavatory

[sudden juniper]

uhm

how much

[velvet mason]

https://i.imgur.com/o8KAotf.png

i have a collection

[sudden juniper]

i pay 300k for hexgrid barter sometimes but I still fidn it not worth it

[velvet mason]

they so cheap

[merry dust]

are grenades worth bringing?

[velvet mason]

always

and they level strength

[sudden juniper]

i wouldnt yet

[merry dust]

dont have him

[sudden juniper]

youre just starting so a few raids is gonna push you to level 10

dont overthink everything just get a bunch of survived raids in

[merry dust]

insurance is it worth insuring anything?

[unreal horizon]

grenades are your biggest tool as a low lvl when you dont have good gear

[sudden juniper]

yes but getting them is ahrd before flea or traders im pretty sure

i dont remember when you can buy them from traders

he prob has lvl 1 everyone

[bold kernel]

got it

[unreal horizon]

idk he asked if he should bring so I assumed he had access

[bold kernel]

mike

i extracted from customs

[unreal horizon]

pog!

[sudden juniper]

grub nice scav raid

another tip I have to save space for stuff is to move things into your pmc character before your scav raid

then dump the stuff into your stash and deal with it later

[bold kernel]

kk

[sudden juniper]

also stack your backpacks!!

[merry dust]

those backpacks must be HUGE

and also heavy

[merry dust]

back to this, should i insure everything ?

[sudden juniper]

lol grub also dont forget to take only a single backpack into raid

I was trying to bring a dayback once and ended up brining like 15 into raid cause I was rushing

daypack*

[sudden juniper]

I would insure everything considering your gear istn worth that much

[crisp nest]

slick is pretty cheap with barter

[sudden juniper]

and youll definitely get it back 99% of the time

[crisp nest]

i dont buy it though

[sudden juniper]

I still think class 5 is more than sufficient

[crisp nest]

dont worry about armor

when you do scav runs keep the class 4 armors for pmc

[sudden juniper]

also I dump all gear I find from someone under level 20

[bold kernel]

i can trade this

for a backpack

should i

[unreal horizon]

yes

[sudden juniper]

worht it

that helmet does basically ntohing lol

im pretty sure it sells for like 5k on the flea

[crisp nest]

yes

ive seen a clip of it ricocheting as a dude grabbed it LOL

[sudden juniper]

fr

i didnt even know it could ricochet

[crisp nest]

or maybe kolpak

i think djeta can ricochet

one of those class 2s

but yeah barter for berkut

[sudden juniper]

lol then I guess its alright but youll have to get super lucky

[crisp nest]

and it lowers sound

[sudden juniper]

^

[crisp nest]

if it didnt lower sound, tbh better than nothing

but its worse than nothing

[velvet mason]

hearing is your best tool in this game dont use those trash hellmets

put on a cowboy hat or something

[sudden juniper]

very true

I would bring headsets to every raid if possible

[velvet mason]

yes even the cheapest

[sudden juniper]

the ones that fucking slam bass into your ears lol

every step you run it sounds so bad but at least its a headset

[velvet mason]

yes they make all sounds alot higher

[crisp nest]

i actually use gssh unironically

[velvet mason]

lol

[crisp nest]

might switch to m32s though

comtacs are nice but too quiet

m32 just loud comtac

[unreal horizon]

^ I like it, ik its not very good but I vibe with it

[dreamy turtle]

gross

[velvet mason]

m32 or xcel are my go to

used to be sordin before this wipe

mainly because they can be worn under the fast mt storm trooper

[bold kernel]

im gonna do another scav on customs

[dreamy turtle]

i dont think the stormtrooper has ever saved me

[rough scarab]

tac sport or bust

[merry dust]

BROOO

NIGHT TIME CUSTOMS

I CANT SEE ANYTHING

[dreamy turtle]

wear night vision

[velvet mason]

lmao why night

[rough scarab]

i like them cause its like gssh but you dont hear every crunch when you walk

[merry dust]

a fucking scav killed me

[merry dust]

you can choose?

[rough scarab]

yes have you ever been outside at night

[dreamy turtle]

yes

[rough scarab]

its pretty hard to see

[merry dust]

im level 2 for context

[dreamy turtle]

dont go night

[velvet mason]

yes lol

[rough scarab]

the game always has two times

[merry dust]

im an idiot

[rough scarab]

one is usually night the other is day

[crisp nest]

except labs

[merry dust]

lesson learned

[rough scarab]

yes except labs

[crisp nest]

but labs is indoors

so doesnt matter EXCEPT for quests

like insomnia

[merry dust]

everybody talks about labs and you need a keycard to go there

what is the loot there?

im guessing godly

[velvet mason]

not really

tbh

[dreamy turtle]

its mainly pvp

[merry dust]

ah for the chads

[clever hare]

i need someone to play with but i just started i'm in 2 man #2

[velvet mason]

the loot is the best but its the same items just more of them

[crisp nest]

just some highend items and shit

[merry dust]

graphics cards?

stuff like that im guessing

[velvet mason]

ye

stims

raiders

no scavs

[crisp nest]

mainly intel, keycard spawns. various highend things like ledx and stuff, keycard rooms, stims, raiders

[merry dust]

also i killed this guy on i think interchange and he had a red keycard

i didnt have room so i threw it away

[velvet mason]

lol right

[merry dust]

no like deadass

i just googled it

and its worth a lot

[velvet mason]

i have it yes

[crisp nest]

yes 100m

well if u get it for 100 you're an idiot

[merry dust]

i feel like an idiot

[crisp nest]

more like 75m

[merry dust]

first off

[velvet mason]

i mean its totaly not worth the price

[merry dust]

whys it so expensive

[velvet mason]

but having it is cool lol

its the best room on labs

[merry dust]

how rich are you

[velvet mason]

but its not that good

[merry dust]

its worth a lot though

[merry dust]

howd you find yours

i wanna try to get one

[velvet mason]

marked room on reserve

ive found 2 there

[merry dust]

sell one then

[velvet mason]

i sold both

i bought the one i have

[merry dust]

for how much

[velvet mason]

barter trade

for gpus and shit when they were 1.8

[crisp nest]

what the fuck

either luckiest man alive

or like 1k+ hours of reserve only

[velvet mason]

i found them in the same marked room lol

rb-vo

[merry dust]

im guessing by this reaction its extremely rare

[velvet mason]

not same raid

obviously

[clever hare]

whats a DT MDR?

[dreamy turtle]

a gun

[clever hare]

well no shit

[merry dust]

also i see mp133s on scavs all the time

[unreal horizon]

its a good budget 556 gun, the 308 is also super fun but its not budget

[crisp nest]

you know what i got in my 1st rbvo hit?

23 bt

[merry dust]

are they worth taking?

[crisp nest]

if u have extra room

[unreal horizon]

if you have an empty gun slot

[crisp nest]

strip the flashlight

unless its the predator

[unreal horizon]

always fill all your slots before you swap things out

[merry dust]

i only ever bring 1 gun so i think ill have room for it

whats the purpose of bringing 2? it seems like a waste of space

[unreal horizon]

no point, unless maybe you're sniping and have an smg

its incredibly situational and mostly useless having 2 guns

[velvet mason]

lol i just found a pmm pistol and nothing else

[crisp nest]

lol

[merry dust]

whats an rbvo?

[velvet mason]

a key

@crisp nest remeber when you could come out of a reserve raid like this https://i.imgur.com/3ZUofcL.png

[crisp nest]

i started this wipe but i had a raid like that then died to a player scav

LOL

[merry dust]

that gun looks DECKED as shit bro

the scope and all

[crisp nest]

i had 85kg on me

[velvet mason]

you could find weapon cases in raid

marked room

[crisp nest]

i found 3 dead chads that got sniped

and dead gluhar gang

[velvet mason]

lol nice

[dreamy turtle]

probably me and my friends

[crisp nest]

it was a free 3 mil until i died

gg on the sniper he couldve done sbih in 2 seconds

[merry dust]

how valuable is currency in this game because so far what im seeing from you guys is that it barely matters

[velvet mason]

ghluhar doesnt play arou nd at range

USD you will use alot later on

Euros not so much but u need alot for questing

[merry dust]

can you transfer money from roubles to usd?

[velvet mason]

yes

[cosmic tinsel]

its extremely easy to get the money you need to have a loadout. it takes a while to get enough for quests and some high end items (like keycards)

[crisp nest]

to me a lot

i spend all my money on labs

[cosmic tinsel]

WANNA GO FEED SOME ROUBLES TO LABS?

[crisp nest]

to the 2 people above, 0

[small cairn]

WASTING MONEY????

[rough scarab]

whats a good budget gun besides the hunter

[crisp nest]

sure i can play labs tomorrow evening
