[cosmic tinsel]

but you really should know why you're doing it

[dawn geyser]

You're not that far gone

[bold kernel]

yea for sure, i got down about there my first couple days just trying to kill pmcs

[dawn geyser]

I saw a guy with -5.8 karma

[bold kernel]

now im at 2.5 bout a month later

oh sna

grimchad

[dawn geyser]

lmao

[reef spoke]

@cosmic tinsel it gets worse the longer i sit....

[bold kernel]

lost the guy anyway oof

[dawn geyser]

lol do you finish your sbih as soon as you get it?

[bold kernel]

wait toz tf

i guy i played with said today he saw a train of 7 scavs and pmcs on reserve just cruising around helping and waiting for everyone haha

[dawn geyser]

Shturman energy

[reef spoke]

i don't play shoreline enough for that , but yeah effectively.

[reef spoke]

yep

[bold kernel]

bro in one game of factory i walked into a hallway and saw 9 bodies

[reef spoke]

vids on th yt and reddit

[bold kernel]

pog scav rig

jesus, did you try to sherlock holmes the scene?

pestily does that sometimes i love it

[bold kernel]

when i walked in there it was a scav

SCAV

he killed me too lol

haha

[dawn geyser]

Jesus, lockers?

[bold kernel]

i did the same and managed to get the guy once, he musta been the only good one..

yes

[bold kernel]

yes

[dawn geyser]

lmao gawdamn

[bold kernel]

i was like nooooo friend im so sorry

[bold kernel]

i swear i shot the guy so many times but he didnt die

he was prob so stoked he lived and then my asshole ass comes in and ends him

limb shots will make you feel like you dominated a fight you lose

at close range the gun moves all over too so sometimes the barrel issnt pointing at the center of your screen

oh somewtimes you can check the shots fired and hits or wtvr and kinda see how you did

[spice gate]

Hey so about every 3/4 raids I try to load into the game crashes and makes all my screens go black, sometimes resulting in blue screens of death, I have triple checked that all my drivers are updated. Does anyone know a fix?

[bold kernel]

with shotguns not really cause they count pellets

any other games do that?

[spice gate]

Nope just tarkov

[bold kernel]

whats this like?

how much ram you have?

[spice gate]

16 gb

[bold kernel]

hm, next blue screen id make note of the exact error and try some google fu

not much help i know

thats weird its every 3 or 4

[spice gate]

Ok, Ive only had it blue screen once or twice so im not sure how to recreate it, thx for the help though

Yeah some it lets me load into, but others it just crashes and messes up my displays

[spice gate]

https://eft.monster/

[bold kernel]

do you by chance monitor your gpu and cpu temps

[spice gate]

I do not

[bold kernel]

i mean it would only do that if it got crazy i guess, itd probably do that with other games, you play other ones that are "graphicslly intense" haha

[spice gate]

Not as intense as tarkov

Should I try to check the temps?

[bold kernel]

its worth getting msi afterburner anyway and just learning a bit more about your gpu

cant hurt at all

takes a little setting up but its helped me diagnose problems a few times, and being able to downclock my older gpu in the summer helps me keep it working a bit smoother

could def be in my head tho haha

[spice gate]

im installing it right now

[bold kernel]

but it will show you if like, your gpu is hitting a limit power or temp wise

is the game on an ssd? dont think it would matter for the blue screen but would help eithe rway

[spice gate]

I dont have it on ssd

[abstract reef]

Did you try a different driver?

Updated doesn't mean it's a good one. Try rolling back.

[spice gate]

Yeah I used to have it on ssd same issue

[bold kernel]

fair point

[spice gate]

Is that what you mean by different driver?

[bold kernel]

hm ok, in general the ssd is always gonna have better performance than a regular hard drive

i think he means a graphics driver

[serene reef]

most BSODs actually happen cause of software

or of malfunctions of hard drives or RAM

[reef spoke]

that chart really presents ammunition information poorly.

[bold kernel]

yea, reseating your ram is an easy thing to do that can fix random problems

[spice gate]

Ill try that

[reef spoke]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Pp8tKScb0jB66cOCJSAlNn-iKERMXd9FVkSmSq83qn8/htmlview

[bold kernel]

ya without the blue screen i say just put the game on an ssd if possible, get fmailiar with afterburner a little and try to screenshot if it happens again

[reef spoke]

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

[soft marsh]

agreed

[radiant viper]

Is it worth me buying an arm band just to make people paranoid?

[spice gate]

I have had it blue screen once, all the other times just screw up my displays

[reef spoke]

same source literally (wiki and nofam) , i prefer nofoods formatting.

[bold kernel]

how do you mean? see now that makes me think its a gpu issue

[serene reef]

i like the collors

[reef spoke]

yee

[bold kernel]

yea did he add orange?

looks differnet

[final jewel]

So I'm at peacekeeper 2 - why on earth would someone buy an Alpha container from him?

[bold kernel]

haha right?

[spice gate]

It will make all my screens go black then it will make one of my monitors not get displayed

[spice gate]

Sometimes it makes that happen

[bold kernel]

ive had some random weird things with displays but nothing where is just stops

[serene reef]

maybe ya all will have a laugh

that's my story xD

[spice gate]

It will stop for a second, then it will come back after like 30 seconds

[wind crater]

how long ago was the wipe?

it feels like its late wipe rn cuz im just constantly running into beefcakes

[bold kernel]

hm, your running two monitors so you can use a map yea?

um, not certain on that Break

[spice gate]

Im running 3, but usually one has a map yes

[bold kernel]

8 weeks maybe?

what gpu you got

[wind crater]

so basically plenty of time for the poopsock army to get to level 60

[bold kernel]

dunno, i started bout a month ago only lv23

been ok for me so far but ya, running lv4 armor is more and more ofver the last month

[spice gate]

Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 3GB

[serene reef]

dogtag killed by "died"

[bold kernel]

oh ya, its that for sure

ok well

[serene reef]

bleeding or dehydration?

[dawn geyser]

Can be both

[bold kernel]

not for sure im not a genius

[dawn geyser]

Died refers to suicide

lol

[serene reef]

lmao

i was waiting for that person

sniping

for good 20 minutes

[reef spoke]

left over trade, you used to be able to accidentally your container

[bold kernel]

i have the 1060 6gb and it uses all of it

[serene reef]

i've been played

[bold kernel]

does anyone know if running 3 monitors would tax an older gpu?

does that even matter to them?

running it on just one monitor in theory would just make it "simpler"

dunno if that matter tho

[dawn geyser]

Running on all 3 at once?

[dusk token]

Eh depends

[dawn geyser]

Or you mean having main game on one

[dusk token]

Are you running 4K

[bold kernel]

just having them doing stuff i assume

asking for austin

[spice gate]

Im usually playing with 1 monitor on tarkov, the other with a map up, then usually the last with like discord or something random

[bold kernel]

i do know that 3gb is low for this

regardless

youll at least know if its getting too hot with msi

and as its def being pushed to the max, could very well be

how dirty are its fans..

[spice gate]

Is the Celsius reading on the right side the temp?

[dawn geyser]

Eh, having multiple monitors shouldn't affect performance that much

[spice gate]

I can try to run tarkov and see how high it gets

in msi

[bold kernel]

um i have mine using some old ass skin

but most likely

[white prism]

I do not run dual monitors on my Rtx 3070 while gaming. One is 1440p 165hz, and the other is 1080p 60hz, and just having the other one on hurts performance noticeably in every game. I use the other monitor for Fl studio. It could be something to do with the evga 3070s preformance in general, but…. Im a frame head…so.

[bold kernel]

so play the game, and have gpu usage, power %, temp, and power limit up

Yea ive notced some wonkjy stuff with a 144 freesync and a regular 60hz

[white prism]

I quit doing that to my 3070, wildly unstable.

[spice gate]

Is this the temperature reading?

[bold kernel]

no i mean, up on a screen to monitor

ya

[spice gate]

Ok, ill run tarkov and see what it goes to

[white prism]

Oh i gottchya

[bold kernel]

but you want the graphs cause then you can see how it will hit a limit and the temp and mhz will drop and the power limit graph will show 1 instead of 0

i have core clock mhz and voltage on as well but if thats too much to watch dont worry for now

[velvet blade]

I see, I never tried it before I might want to play with it a bit since I struggle with long head taps on pp-19 and mp5

[reef spoke]

thats more to do with zeroing mechanics in game and the fact 9x19 is slow, and there for very range sesnstive.

[bold kernel]

see how it says temp limit 83, the card will clock down to try and keep it under that

[spice gate]

Yeah

[bold kernel]

but if the temp is an issue possibly downclocking or running the fan higher, cleaning it, maybe opening the case who knows, could help

[white prism]

I put tarkov on recommend settings for tarkov. And fuck me. It turns everything on. 60fps. Ugly as hell. Like its pretty but just jarring to look at. Turned down the sight distance and a few things, straight up to 144.

[bold kernel]

i run my case open like a monster

[white prism]

For nvidia*

[bold kernel]

ya the visibility setting can safely be on, 1000 i believe

i turn shadows to 40

[white prism]

I wanna see your air duster bill

[bold kernel]

so i can chesse in windows

This guy had m4

and had warmagedon ammo

but it cost only 94 rubles

like wtf xd

[velvet blade]

isn't that leg meta?

[merry dust]

just gave a docs away

[spice gate]

So I’m loading into a raid and it’s on Loading Map, it’s up to 65 c right now

[rough scarab]

warmagedon is not good ammo

yea its leg meta ammo

[bold kernel]

haha my front 2 fans manage to catch a lot on their blades so im lucky

while playing itll jump up to 80 no prob

those cards wont shut off until like 94 i think

what is leg meta?

but i know mine which is just the 6gb of yours, downclocks at like 82

shoot in the leg where no armor is

with high damage bullets

i think

[candid tundra]

is this worth anything

[bold kernel]

unless it means legging people in the open so they slow down

im pretty sure most military type stuff is check tarkovmarket if you want flea prices etc

HOLY SHIT

SOME SCAV WAS ACTING LIKE SOME FRIEND THEN KILLED ME

[serene reef]

Okay so

i had on encounter last raid

far away saw a scav early

prone instantly to be stealth

but i couldnt aim up

[static nacelle]

no worries it's gonna happen.

[serene reef]

like i couldn't break the horizontal angle

why does that sometimes happen and how to avoid that?

[bold kernel]

never trust another scav

[static nacelle]

there is some people who don't care about karma system and there is a good scav with who you can even do barter trade in the raid.

[bold kernel]

i assume every one wants to use me as a mule if they are nice

oh ill still trade

i still dont trust em

[rough scarab]

only trust people if you are ok with losing what you have

[bold kernel]

never let them behind me, always moving if they look at me

i dont like the loud noise

haha

[rough scarab]

me and some dude tried extracting at the same time, i hid behind cover spamming hold your fire command until he extracted

[bold kernel]

hahaha quality strats

time to night factory

noice

night factory scary asf

if they look at me i just start practising my ad strafes

night factory is spook

[serene reef]

yeah

it kinda is

but if you know your way around

you become the night demon under the bed

just dont ever run

[dawn geyser]

I wonder how fast frt triggers are going to get banned

atf

[spice gate]

So CouchBox I just finished a raid and it went up to a max of 78 c

[bold kernel]

well damn thats better than mine haha

what was gpu usage at

[spice gate]

Where does it show that?

I i found it

[bold kernel]

you might have to add it from settings under monitoring

just want to make sure its getting up to 99% at least sometimes

[spice gate]

It was hovering around 97 ish

[bold kernel]

ok so its using all of it thats good

again i cant know but id just keep watching that guy, feel free to mess with the power limit it should only go up to 120%. its like a mini overclock

but it might barely do anything and just increase temps

i still like seeing what stuff does tho

[final jewel]

2 money cases and not enough money to have one save me space, sadge

[bold kernel]

if it has the option to monitor cpu stuff you can turn that on too just as another thing to watch

[weak sparrow]

anyone able to help me with the mechanics shotgun mod task?

[spice gate]

Ok thx for the help

[hollow bough]

Looking for SA players to join in raiding!

[bold kernel]

ya hopefully it does something helpful

[vivid nebula]

so did my first pmc run, spawned near a scav and killed him... 10s later I hear footsteps and the game becomes extremely laggy and a big drop in fps is this some kind of hack or what? I have like 10+ scav runs and never got any issues

needless to say I lost everything

[timber dagger]

If you have jeagor you can buy the mp133 pistol grip and you need a compensator too, you can scav in with a light and mount and you need a 5 rnd extended mp155 magazine

That's what I did

[bold kernel]

America?

[hollow bough]

South Africa.

[bold kernel]

o wait

[candid tundra]

is this ammo any good?

[bold kernel]

we have a cool SA store near me house

south america isnt a thing right?

nah, myth

[bold kernel]

thought u mean south au

[velvet blade]

I think it's the best of its caliber if I'm not mistaken

[bold kernel]

yea it is indeed

boom boom

[hollow bough]

Awesome!

[bold kernel]

yea biltong i cant get into tho

i keep trying

maybe its just not the good stuff

[hollow bough]

There are so many different types. I like wet and fatty biltong, with Chilli spice

and Cabanossi

[bold kernel]

yea these are usually dryer

ha

[hollow bough]

Like "dry wors"?

Not my thing.

[bold kernel]

no the biltong is just not wet

I dunno if they have Cabanossi I'll ask

is it in little tins usually

[hollow bough]

No no, you usually get it in a paper bag...

tinned Biltong sounds bad...

[bold kernel]

oh ok i think they have a section on the side like that

haha

yea

the chilli pastes are good but im pretty weak

I put some on chicken I made and it worked so well, just a tiny bit

[hollow bough]

Ah no, us south africans like our hot stuff.

[bold kernel]

itll last me years haha

anyone know if theres a 5-7 scope i can buy from peace keeper lvl3?

[hollow bough]

peri peri?

[bold kernel]

yea one of those types

5-7 like the pistol?

yes

[hollow bough]

I have some super hot stuff, my wife bought she didnt warn me though, So there's me, pouring this sh1t on...

STILL LOOKING FOR SOUTH AFRICAN PLAYERS PLEASE!!!!

[merry dust]

gonna be pretty hard

NA and EU make up the most

[bold kernel]

i think there are little plates for a lot of the sights

right click the slide, or the gun cant remember and hit linked search

[hollow bough]

The ping is just too high

[bold kernel]

shoudl show you everything that can go on that part

you can then link search from any other item in the flea screen

[merry dust]

higher than 170?

[hollow bough]

Alternatively if you are of level, you can select edit preset. There you can see exactly what is required to complete a build

[hollow bough]

uo, 200+

yup*

[bold kernel]

how would that help me find the sight? i dont think ive used that

[white prism]

sure it wasnt a PMC dressed as a scav? let your brain party with that concept for a second😱

[hollow bough]

When you select edit preset, you will see compatibility with each rail etc. What sites work and dont

Also for suppressors, some need DT mount and so on

[bold kernel]

wait even if they arent in your inventory?

[hollow bough]

correct

[bold kernel]

my

god

one sec

[hollow bough]

There is a "use available items" check box to limit it to the inventory items

[bold kernel]

well i cant read so makes sense i missed it

[hollow bough]

That is the best way to make a build, whilst viewing stats for the build as well.

You can basically set up a preset to your desired specs, then buy the parts.

[bold kernel]

youve saved me so much time over the next however long it woulda taken me to figure that out

[hollow bough]

I am glad I could help.

[bold kernel]

wow

hahaha

i was using linked search and scrolling and linking and backing etc

[hollow bough]

I know your pain, The devs really did us a favor with that

[bold kernel]

for real this is gonna consume me for hours

better grab food now

[hollow bough]

It is fun to just build presets, you can save them and when you got the cash go to the preset, hit assemble, buy parts, "uncheck owner player types" and buy

[bold kernel]

this is just lovely

[cosmic tinsel]

I got an sbih kill w mag buck this wipe :D. Not quite as cool, but still notewortht

[reef spoke]

thats pretty awesome tbh

[serene reef]

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

but hey at least now i know how far away 100m is

[slim frigate]

whats better about hip firing?

[proven saddle]

has to me 100.1

[brazen pilot]

Gulhar killed me while scav for no reason

and i dont have bad karma

[proven saddle]

100m wont count

[serene reef]

how much do you have?

[slim frigate]

Dont you need max karma for passive boss

[brazen pilot]

.78

[serene reef]

it depends on boss

[open wraith]

If any player scav has aggroed a boss, they aggro on all scavs

[proven saddle]

for 100% chance

[serene reef]

tagilla is like 1+

[slim frigate]

gotcha

[proven saddle]

theres a chance at every rank above 0

[serene reef]

but i think glukhar is like 3+ ?

[serene reef]

yeah prob

[slim frigate]

Can someone explain to me why people hip fire so much? i'm brand new so something like constantly hip firing is a foreign concept to me in an FPS game

[proven saddle]

i stood on killa's head at like 1 so

[bold kernel]

does the notification for scav karma not show up in raid anymore?

[proven saddle]

no ads time

[proven saddle]

no

only after the raid

[bold kernel]

oh damn

[white prism]

do npc scavs recognize Pmc's no matter what they are wearing?

[bold kernel]

idk if i killed someone good or bad now huh

[proven saddle]

yes

[slim frigate]

Whats a definite way to tell apart a PMC and a scav? i'm paranoid on my scav runs to kill a player scav and lose karma

[candid tundra]

is it normal for your scav to be higher level than your pmc

[proven saddle]

clothing/gear/movement if its an AI

[proven saddle]

what

theres no scav level

[candid tundra]

yea there is

[white prism]

i noticed it was weird in factory npc scavs can tell whose footsteps are whose. Watcha Npc scav and when they react to footsteps, Thats PMC

[proven saddle]

there isnt

youve got skills but thats it

[slim frigate]

cool thanks

[candid tundra]

when your doing a scav run go to overall in your inventory

you can see a level

[proven saddle]

yo what

[candid tundra]

it's 19 and my pmc level is 17

[proven saddle]

gotta check that

means youre not questing enough then

[reef spoke]

"""from a distance of more than 100 meters """

So yes... yes it does

[proven saddle]

exactly

i saw pestily get a kill at exactly 100 and it didnt count

[serene reef]

hipfire in this game is quite accurate

accurate enough for 10 meters imo

you dont get slowed by ads

so you can ad spam

[slim frigate]

I guess i gotta learn the centre of the screen better then

[serene reef]

run a laser

[slim frigate]

Can't afford it

[proven saddle]

its not the center

[serene reef]

it further makes the hipfire accuracy better

[proven saddle]

its whereever your barrel is pointing

[serene reef]

ncstar is what

[slim frigate]

i see

[serene reef]

less than 10k

[proven saddle]

5k

lol

[serene reef]

yeah

[slim frigate]

No flea market

[proven saddle]

skier lvl 1

[slim frigate]

Or can i get it from a trader

[serene reef]

lvl 1

[slim frigate]

cool

[serene reef]

ak100

from prapor

[slim frigate]

what gun should i run for my loadouts before flea market/

[serene reef]

i think allows a laser, no?

if not

then aksu

[fathom ocean]

sks

[serene reef]

ak74u

and run goshan for BT ammo

prapor lvl 1 aksu comes with 30 rounds of BP

btw

my second is sks too

[slim frigate]

How much would an ak74 u with BT ammo cost per loadout?

[serene reef]

PS ammo 762 almost pens 4

[serene reef]

you cant buy BT

[reef spoke]

hip fire is a very important skill to learn in tarkov. sub 15m its the go to unless you've got a reason to not (small expected targets etcetc)

[serene reef]

that's the problem

you'd have to go to interchange, to goshan

nab some tushonkas

2 for 30 rounds

you cna get 6-8

from 1 raid

[slim frigate]

Can i buy good sks ammo?

If so that might be better for me

[serene reef]

only PS ammo

[fathom ocean]

yes

[serene reef]

but the caliber

[fathom ocean]

PS is solid

[reef spoke]

PS 7,62x39 is actually pretty solid

[candid tundra]

what do i drop im on a scav run

[serene reef]

itself is good

[proven saddle]

around 100k depending on the build itself

[proven saddle]

can go up to 200k

[serene reef]

[[Ballistics]]

[broken quail]

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

[candid tundra]

what do i drop

[fathom ocean]

W

[candid tundra]

what do i drop im on a scav run

[slim frigate]

So ps ammo for sks is good?

[fathom ocean]

drop m700 keep scope

[proven saddle]

strip the ak, strip the m4

[reef spoke]

strip the 700 of attachments then drop the 700

[slim frigate]

No mods needed??

[unique steeple]

can u repair faceshield crack

[fathom ocean]

and

[proven saddle]

by strip i mean sight and supp

[fathom ocean]

Supressor

[reef spoke]

you can't do a lot to the sks by default, the OP-sks can use scopes

[proven saddle]

yes

[unique steeple]

how

[proven saddle]

right click, repair

[slim frigate]

So i want normal sks not OP-sks

[proven saddle]

nah you want op sks

[slim frigate]

then PS ammo

Okay

do i buy a scope or no

[unique steeple]

that doesnt repair it bruh

[fathom ocean]

OP sks is good too but costs like 12k more but you can put scopes on it

[fathom ocean]

no

[proven saddle]

its not damaged enough then

[unique steeple]

got a crack in the middle

[slim frigate]

this game is so overwhelming when you're new xD

[proven saddle]

i mean the durability

[unique steeple]

ah

[proven saddle]

has to be below like a certain threshold to repair it

[fathom ocean]

Everybody goes through it unless you get carried

[candid tundra]

is anything worth dropping for this stuff?

[proven saddle]

strip any gun you cant take

[proven saddle]

take the bullets out of the ak mags and drop em

also drop the pistol mag

[slim frigate]

Is the MP5 you start with worth keeping hold of or no

[proven saddle]

yes

[proven saddle]

its one of the very few full auto guns you have access to at the start

[fathom ocean]

Best gun in the game

[slim frigate]

I still have one left guess i'll use it at some point

[proven saddle]

tell that to my vpo-209

[reef spoke]

unironically in the hands of even a low skilled player the OP-sks is a chad killer with BP ammo

the sks won't let you down if you do your part.

(unlesss you're over 250m ...then it starts getting squirly)

[slim frigate]

What ammo do i put in this?

[proven saddle]

5.45x39

[fathom ocean]

Its good kicks like a mf tho

[slim frigate]

I know the caliber i mean what type is good

[thick harness]

5.45 ammo. You will only have access to prs I believe at level 1 traders

[proven saddle]

the only one you have access to is ps and its absolute hot garbage

[fathom ocean]

You cant get anything good

[slim frigate]

Okay so can i sell this for now

[proven saddle]

doesnt matter when you 1 tap thorax

[thick harness]

There is nothing wrong with taking the default AK out with some PS rounds as a new player

[proven saddle]

the 7.62 ak, yes

[thick harness]

if you want the roubles sell it but you might get more value trying to sneak through a map and kill a scav or two

[slim frigate]

I can just do a scav run for that and grab some loose items

[fathom ocean]

yesirr

[slim frigate]

I usually die in a raid to players

with AKs with bad ammo i mean

[thick harness]

Its up to you but dont let the ammo elitists in here talk you out of running a budget kit

[proven saddle]

no you dont

[slim frigate]

I guess thats just my map knowledge however

[thick harness]

PS can kill people

any bullet is one tap to the face

[reef spoke]

taking head on fights as a low end kit pmc is a good way to die

[proven saddle]

worst ammo ive seen in the last 2 weeks was 7.62 ps

well i guess there was 9x19 pst

[candid tundra]

thx for the help guys, probably my beefiest scav run

[reef spoke]

One PST 9x19 is diddly..... a magainze if 9x19 is a whole lot of diddly.

[fathom ocean]

W

[reef spoke]

good looting my dude.

[thick harness]

Guy I was sherpaing 2 days ago killed a wendy exfil hexgrid. 2 PST GZH to the face

[proven saddle]

thats about 600k-700k

[reef spoke]

it be like that.

[proven saddle]

well no actually prob around 1 mil

if you have flea

[slim frigate]

How are you getting that on a scav run xDD

did you kill a pmc or did you find corpses

[thick harness]

Point is, dont be an ammo elitist. Especially when you are low level. Just take what you got and try to have some fun

[summer stump]

where I can find thermite?

[thick harness]

the 30k in roubles is not a big deal in the long run

[reef spoke]

tool spawns

[proven saddle]

ic or reserve are you best bet

[thick harness]

The back hallway behind goshan has some thermite spawns as well

[cosmic tinsel]

mumbles about combustible spawns

Thermites reasonably hard to deliberately loot outside of labs

[proven saddle]

ye just buy it

is there a quest?

[cosmic tinsel]

It's always a sub 20 player wanting ammo box

[thick harness]

I see more thermite on interchange than I do on labs

[candid tundra]

i killed 2 pcs who where looting bodies

[slim frigate]

ah i haven't run into a PMC in a scav run

[cosmic tinsel]

Ya? I don't spend much time in IC hardware spawns. I feel like I see thermite in every connector hallway in labs. I believe it tho

[slim frigate]

So it was PS ammo i wanted on SKS right?

Who sells it was it skier?

[bold kernel]

the ammo box is the 1st attainable box, i wanted it bad, didnt know why but i needed it

[thick harness]

Just that RNG. I see it in the back hallway of goshan like every other raid when I go there. But I never see it on labs lol

[fathom ocean]

Yes

[fathom ocean]

Prapor

[slim frigate]

This the one?

[fathom ocean]

yes

[slim frigate]

Cool thanks

[proven saddle]

so apparently my scav is lvl 14

so you scaved a lot more than i did

and my pmc is 33

[reef spoke]

scav levels are random

each scav will have a diffrent level you load into

[candid tundra]

mines always been the same

[bold kernel]

you 100 on that?

afiak you do level them up seperately from the pmc

[slim frigate]

How do you get a bigger container?

[bold kernel]

dunno if i can trust the wiki tho

[slim frigate]

Is it through tasks?

[bold kernel]

the alpha?

[slim frigate]

the alpha container thing

[bold kernel]

i think one quest gives you beta, but you can also trade peacekeeper 2 for a beta

[slim frigate]

Cool

[bold kernel]

ya i didnt know that and it was super cool upgrade

its like tank battery and bunch of weird shit tho, so i needed flea

[reef spoke]

huh . thats odd

[candid tundra]

should i sell these to ragman or wait until i have flee, i just hit level 18

[fathom ocean]

Use them

[proven saddle]

use em or give em to ragman

not that big of a difference in price

[candid tundra]

thx

[bold kernel]

use em youll be there soon enough

[candid tundra]

i'll die in 2 seconds

[bold kernel]

2.3 with those tho

[proven saddle]

trooper kinda sucks for how expensive it is honestly

[bold kernel]

and youll learn with the extra time

ive had one work amazing and also been ruined from my stomach

i dunno

[proven saddle]

people are starting to run good ammo

like a lot

[bold kernel]

oh good point

[proven saddle]

so ye class 4 wont do much

[bold kernel]

im on 5s mostly so i guess i was thinking to a time when it woulda been worth more

[proven saddle]

i like running tagillas thing

its surprisingly good

[bold kernel]

i have 1 but i like lookin at it

[proven saddle]

for how cheap it is

[bold kernel]

oh ya

how much is it

its 6 huh

[proven saddle]

like 200k

[bold kernel]

6 2x1s

[proven saddle]

ye

i got mine for 175

[bold kernel]

i dont htink im quite 200k per armor rich

yet

[proven saddle]

honestly thats 1 scav run

one bad scav run

[bold kernel]

since i got flea i stopped enjoying scav runs, kinda saddens me

[proven saddle]

its free money

[bold kernel]

probably cause ive been solo a lot recently

[rough scarab]

i barely use my scav runs this raid

unless I get a good scav loadout

[bold kernel]

yea i like scavs when im shooting the shit with someone

[young pendant]

Do you get all the insured items you brought into raid back at the same time?

if you die

[rough scarab]

yes

[bold kernel]

only the things no one takes out

[young pendant]

oh okay thanks

[dawn geyser]

Only reason I don't use scav is because my stash is always full

[rough scarab]

assuming no one takes it you get everything back in 1 message from prapor

[bold kernel]

oh yea each raid is like packaged together

[young pendant]

Good to know

[bold kernel]

kwon cause you too good and never die?

dang

harsh life

[rough scarab]

also tbh scav runs arent too appealing for me cause I make most of my money from stash runs and looting filing cabinets and stuff, usually in a scav run everything is already looted

[proven saddle]

i sell most of everything i dont plan on using

more than half my stash is empty

[bold kernel]

they are definitely more chill that pmc runs, I appreciate that

[proven saddle]

i mean i usually run through factory for like 5 mins looting whatever i can find and i come out with 300-400k

depending on the gear i have

if i dont have a backpack then about 200k

[candid tundra]

is this key any good?

[proven saddle]

ye

i mean

depends on what good means to you

[serene reef]

its a safe

[proven saddle]

its like 40k on the market

[candid tundra]

is it worth keeping

[serene reef]

shoreline

[proven saddle]

no

[candid tundra]

ok thanks

[serene reef]

cottage is highly contested

because sanitar spawns there

(now during the event he doesnt ^^ )

but it's just a safe

[candid tundra]

event?

[serene reef]

yeah

on shoreline

in health resort

sanitar and reshala

spawn

in resort

like 100% of the time

is the thin .366? 308? whatever that caliber is sniper/hunting rifle any good?

its a vpo im p sure

just not the vpo hunter rifle

[merry dust]

its .366

[serene reef]

yeah

[merry dust]

its eh

[serene reef]

is that sniper any good?

[merry dust]

slap ap-m in it

[serene reef]

compared to sv98 ?

[merry dust]

sv-98 uses 7.62x54r

[serene reef]

yeah

[merry dust]

id use sv-98

cause snb is mega powerful

[serene reef]

yeah

[merry dust]

and ap-m isnt as good

and bullet velocity too

[reef spoke]

the sv98 is a much further ranged rifle.

and significantly more accurate.

[serene reef]

Thanks < 3

[ionic shale]

does anyone have both kiba keys for interchange gun store. willing to trade fully automatic AK-105 or any other item at my disposal dm me for further info

[bold kernel]

Whats a good way to make money?

[ionic shale]

[steady trellis]

or run tech stores for GPUs and tetriz's

[bold kernel]

Thanks man

[ionic shale]

true

[ionic shale]

[velvet blade]

WTF thermal can't see throw windows!?!?!?

it looks opaque on the thermal camera

[hollow thorn]

I personally prefer cache running on customs at night but thats a lot more hit or miss

sometimes the cache gods are not friednly

[reef spoke]

thats actually a real life thing too

[velvet blade]

you can't zero a thermal scope?

[reef spoke]

yes? you cant see through glass with a thermal

you can zero a thermal scope, but can not see through glass

[bleak crystal]

can AI scavs spawn right at the start of a raid?

[orchid silo]

they take about a minute

[cosmic tinsel]

you used to be able to and they patched it to fix it 😄

you can shoot out a window ahead of time if you wanna keep eyes on it

[velvet blade]

oh that's true I can do that lmao so pepega

[spice gate]

Hey can anyone help take me through woods to do the Introduction and Search Mission quest?? I havent played woods before

[reef spoke]

yee i'm down for a walk through the woods if you wanna tag along with like an sks or something

[spice gate]

Sure, is a mosin ok? I dont have that many options since I dont have flea yet

[reef spoke]

you're fine i'll drag you something along if you wanna bring some light kit, like a bag or vest etc etc

[spice gate]

yeah that would be awesome

[reef spoke]

@spice gate 2 man squad #22

[merry dust]

Show me a chart

[reef spoke]

[merry dust]

LETS FUCKING GO

[reef spoke]

I can make one

[merry dust]

do it

you won’t

[reef spoke]

Found a good one actually , saved

[bold kernel]

scav on xgames mode

[rough scarab]

[merry dust]

[rough scarab]

#pvp-lfg

[potent crater]

how can i get into running labs if i want to start running labs (im not good but i feel like i should start running it sometime even if i die a bunch i would be getting practice)

[candid tundra]

i mean for now go in offline mode

[boreal violet]

first if you havent really ran it before, i suggest doing offline raid in labs to learn the map

[candid tundra]

until you know the map decently and learn the extracts

here's an amazing map https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/lab

[boreal violet]

knowing your location in labs is key, because if you dont, it can turn into a maze when you're underground for some people. Along knowing which angles people can come from

[potent crater]

I mean once i know the map

i want to start running it but i think i should get better but if i always wait im eventually just gonna be good enough but still not run it

and with my rep i get keycard semi often so i get some keycards and i have 4 spare and i just sell them now

[candid tundra]

i dont get what you mean

if you get keycards decently often and have a bit of money, just bring a shitty 100k or less loadout and try

[potent crater]

yah that is what ill start doing thanks

i have like ~5 mil is that enough to start doing that?

[boreal violet]

you could go in with a fn pistol and still come out with millions or just straight up die

xD

[limber notch]

What is up with all these rats on IC
