[merry dust]

it’s is chad dad

[whole thistle]

Ash12 vs ash12 with glukhar

[merry dust]

Need a nickname for ash now

[whole thistle]

Oh true

[lusty glacier]

Not glukhar with ash 12?

[whole thistle]

No I'm saying you have an ash off with glukhar

[crimson geyser]

PBP or AP 6.3?

[lusty glacier]

Oh I though you meant glukhar is the side arm

[whole thistle]

Pbp

[whole thistle]

LMAO

[lusty glacier]

Out here fighting the ash12 not the man himself

[whole thistle]

The ash 12 is way more powerful than that wimpy marine

The ash 12 is the strongest object on the planet

[tulip whale]

True

[lusty glacier]

Why should I use ash 12

[whole thistle]

Because it's fucking awesome

[unique steeple]

it kills

[lusty glacier]

So does an ak103 with BP for 250 roubles a bullet via crafting materials I find in raid

[cinder ridge]

It’s fun but it’s just not

[whole thistle]

46 pen 102 damage 700 per bullet

And like 50 armor damage

It's the armor smasher

[lusty glacier]

Ok

Is the gun expensive

Can I hit shots?

[whole thistle]

It's 40k with the prapor trade and 60k from the market

[unique steeple]

Can it one tap thorax?

NO

[whole thistle]

Through class 4

[unique steeple]

BP?

[whole thistle]

Ps12b

[unique steeple]

Yeye

[whole thistle]

[unique steeple]

Ik ash 12 can

But 762 can’t

[whole thistle]

Weak shit caliber out of my game

[lusty glacier]

But it can be sprayed with accuracy

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[lusty glacier]

Can't tkm ap-m 1 tap class 4 too?

[whole thistle]

Not at long range but yes

[unique steeple]

Yeah only low end class 4

Ash 12 can one tap low end class 5 as well

[whole thistle]

Yeah but it goes through ugly semi auto guns and has less pen

[lusty glacier]

How often u use ash12 full auto

I never tried it

[unique steeple]

Always

[cosmic tinsel]

all class 4

[unique steeple]

Apm no

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

its either all or none afaik

[unique steeple]

I tried it a few times

[cosmic tinsel]

dmg reduction based only off %chance to pen

[unique steeple]

I got one tapped every time with uley

[cosmic tinsel]

weird

[unique steeple]

And not always with assault

[cosmic tinsel]

assault?

[whole thistle]

Any time I see a living thing

[unique steeple]

Assault armor

[cosmic tinsel]

gen4 assault?

thats class 5

[unique steeple]

Oh wait

I meant the trooper

[cosmic tinsel]

ohhh 6b13

[unique steeple]

No trooper my bad

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah fair

fwiw

"If the bullet penetrates, it deals between 0% and 40% less damage based on an algorithm that uses the bullet’s pen value and the armor’s class and durability %."

effective dura is not part of the equation for damage per no food after midnight

[civic vessel]

Oh dear this is so sad https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/pojfzy/poor_timmy_brought_his_backpack_stack_i_felt_so/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf I wonder if he ran out of time opening all of those

[kindred vault]

because armor class and durability % is effective durability

[cosmic tinsel]

pls double click to open

[cosmic tinsel]

no.

[kindred vault]

then what is effective durability 🙂

[civic vessel]

Does that search ?

[cosmic tinsel]

current durability * armor coefficient

[cosmic tinsel]

no. middle click to search, double click to open

[kindred vault]

which basically is the armor class and durability %....

[cosmic tinsel]

no, thats chance to pen

[kindred vault]

what's the difference between armor class and armor coefficient

[cosmic tinsel]

armor class determines pen chance, armor coefficient determines effective dura

armor class * current dura %** = pen chance

armor type * current dura = effective dura

the more effective dura you have, the slower the pen chance increases

a full hp trooper and a full hp rat rig have the same chance to stop a given round

[kindred vault]

yeah i've read back on how you said it, i thought you included that in armor class, my bad there

[cosmic tinsel]

a trooper will retain more ability to stop a bullet after the first shot than a rat rig

[unique steeple]

So u always get one tapped by apm through trooper

[cosmic tinsel]

milad's testing is interesting because it contradicts my understanding of the damage system

[unique steeple]

Does it have to do with ur skills

[cosmic tinsel]

no

[unique steeple]

Cuz it was on different people

Oh ok

[cosmic tinsel]

lemme check something on battle buddy

[kindred vault]

keep inmind there's always the chance of fragmentation and a bullet dealing more damage

sometimes explains the mysterious onetaps when it shouldnt onetap

[cosmic tinsel]

yep

could be weird fragment chance

i just confirmed thru battlebuddy that ap-m has the same 92.7% chance to pen on both rat rig and trooper 🤷‍♂️

[tidal hamlet]

what are the beginners assistance calls?

[jovial quest]

You can locate them under Beginners Voice and they are for new people that are trying to learn

[unique steeple]

So does it one tap on both or two tap on both statistically

[whole thistle]

You can join them for beginners assistance

[kindred vault]

i think he asked what not where

[jovial quest]

well he can get both

[kindred vault]

that's the spirit

[hushed bear]

Is a lvl 23/first wipe considered still a beginner. I feel like one lol

[cosmic tinsel]

in theory the shot should do the same damage to the player wearing both, if it pens, which it should most of the time. my understanding was it was enough to 1 tap, and thats consistent with my experience

[cosmic tinsel]

10000%

[kindred vault]

bro im playing for 3 wipes and im still a beginner 🙂

[jovial quest]

anyone who is going through first wipe is a beginner i guess

yeah

ive played for 3 wipes and im still ass lol

[cosmic tinsel]

saint, milad and i cant even figure out if a bullet kills over here lol

[kindred vault]

i can, a bullet will kill you

[cosmic tinsel]

and we've probably got a combined 10 wipes between us

[kindred vault]

they are very hurtful

[unique steeple]

Lmao

[hushed bear]

lol cool, I just wasn't sure whether or not I should be good yet

[kindred vault]

you see, the thing about tarkov is

you can mechanically play very well in a shootergame

[unique steeple]

U got 7 wipes?

[cosmic tinsel]

5

[kindred vault]

and still get destroyed in tarkov because lack of game knowledge

[jovial quest]

yeah or just shit ammo :/

[unique steeple]

Sheeesh

[kindred vault]

there's no such thing as shit ammo, it just depends on what body parts you aim for 😛 😛

[unique steeple]

Im on third one

[jovial quest]

yeah i forgot about legs for a second

[kindred vault]

or stumach against armor that doesnt protect the stumach

[jovial quest]

ye

[wary valley]

So head thorax blacked by bullets is insta death right?

[kindred vault]

yes

[wary valley]

And if u get damage with blacked head or thorax u die?

[kindred vault]

depends

[wary valley]

On?

[unique steeple]

Not always

[kindred vault]

they changed the overflow damage, so now damage is only spread accross 'living limbs'. if your head/thorax were already blacked, you would die when all other limbs reach 0. but if your head / thorax werent blacked, they will go black rather quickly.

Or

If you get a bleed

youll die shortly after

[wary valley]

Ive bled till blacked head

[kindred vault]

(assuming you get shot on for example the legs)

i thought they fixed the not-dying-to-bleed bug when blacking out

[wary valley]

So u have to do someones entire ho to kill them?

[kindred vault]

or atleast, they acknowledged its a bug

[wary valley]

I got a screenshot

[unique steeple]

U can bleed til blacked thorax or head

U won’t die

If u get shot there again u die

[wary valley]

That is not the question

That is the question aftrr

[bronze laurel]

it's not wierd, think of it like a crit in rpgs

[wary valley]

Not really but

[unique steeple]

Wdym

[wary valley]

If u get shot anywhere else what happens

[cosmic tinsel]

completely agree

[wary valley]

Thats the qeustior

[cosmic tinsel]

was talking about the way the % happened, not the fact that it exists

[wary valley]

Question*

[kindred vault]

if you get shot on the right leg, your right leg takes damage. now if that leg dies (blacked) and gets shot at, the remaining damage will be split accross all living limbs

in which case, your blacked thorax will not receive damage when taking damage from the leg

[unique steeple]

It spreads out on non blacked limbs

[kindred vault]

it used to be like that a month ago, but they changed that into what i just described above

[unique steeple]

What saint said

[wary valley]

So basically id have to do 840 of killas hp?

Or more of a till head or thorax black

[bronze laurel]

if you go for legmeta yes

[kindred vault]

i mean

[unique steeple]

Leg meta is easier now than before

[kindred vault]

technically its easier now

[unique steeple]

Yes

[bronze laurel]

nah, before killa got stunned if you sprayed his legs

[kindred vault]

that has nothing to do with the damage distribution update

[high mason]

So... word to my new guys .. if you hear a shot whiz directly past your head and your screen kinda goes a tad black for a split second.... MOVE YOUR ASS..

[bronze laurel]

oh yea no, just out of context

[high mason]

Just made a 350m shot on a kid... I missed my first shot high because of the bolty buff

[unique steeple]

It was needed

[wary valley]

Sad times for leg meta boss hunting gang gamg

[high mason]

I shot.. he stood still .. still scoping around... my second shot didn't miss

[wary valley]

But happy times with pmc hunting gang gang

[high mason]

WHY? ... why make it so easy.

smh

[unique steeple]

Wait why

[kindred vault]

take the current situation for example (simplified) i got 5 limbs. a bullet does 50 damage. now if i shoot limb 1. it will die. the next bullet USED to only deal 50/5 = 10 damage per limb (Old situation). but since right now it changed meaning it only accounts for 4 living limbs, the remaining limbs will take 50/4 = 12.5 damage

[wary valley]

Cause id have to do over 600 hp @unique steeple

[kindred vault]

you already had to deal that much damage

you have to deal less damage to kill now

[unique steeple]

It’s always been like that

[kindred vault]

as more damage spreads to other limbs

[dawn geyser]

@cosmic tinsel #fan-art I have my loadout

When we going labs #fan-art

[wary valley]

When can i come with my kneecaps destroyer

[dawn geyser]

lol kneecap destroyer

[wary valley]

Ima break their nico nico kneecaps

[cosmic tinsel]

lmaooo

what is THIS

[dawn geyser]

i had the magnifier down LMAO

That's a uh-1

[cosmic tinsel]

i recognized the huey

didnt know what was goin on behind it

[dawn geyser]

lmfao it's to the side

just a magnifier

[cosmic tinsel]

got it

[dawn geyser]

I had it at the range and a guy came up from behind me

[cosmic tinsel]

heck yes

[dawn geyser]

asked if it was night vision

[cosmic tinsel]

holy moly

[bold kernel]

will i die?

[dawn geyser]

If anything touches your thorax yes

Keep an eye on your hydration

That will kill you if it ticks your thorax

Get out of the raid

[bold kernel]

this bitch

just almost killed me

[bronze laurel]

if you take one point of dmg that spreads to thorax yes

[onyx steeple]

I am looking at a customs map trying to correlate callout names with buildings... Would anyone help me please?

[wary valley]

Gang gang

[onyx steeple]

The new area around fortress, I do not know.

[whole thistle]

More magnified sights 🥵

[open cargo]

this game makes no fucking sense spend all this money on tier 5 - 6 gear to get one tapped by some shitty gun

[onyx steeple]

This is why you just buy the shitty gun instead.

a bullet in the face is a bullet in the face

[whole thistle]

Wtf I can't see that chat

Wery stramge

[dawn geyser]

lol the image?

[whole thistle]

I can't see fanart chat at all

[whole thistle]

High visibility magazine so your targets won't be confused it you're a person or not

[dawn geyser]

LOL

I'll use those big sticks in the back

brbrbrbrrrbrbr

[wary valley]

[onyx steeple]

Can anyone show me on a map the callout names for the new area of customs?

[whole thistle]

NEVER

[onyx steeple]

#beginners-assistance

[whole thistle]

Crackhouse and fortress is really all you need

[wary valley]

im waiting for powerstation killa

[onyx steeple]

#general-chat

[dawn geyser]

Large building = ZB-013/Gunner/Fortress/Stronghold
Smaller glass building = Crack house/Medical building/Glass building

What are you trying to ping?

[cosmic tinsel]

heard large building as stronghold, too

[dawn geyser]

Oh right stronghold

[onyx steeple]

the buildings in this picture. I only know the names of one of them I think.

[wary valley]

and the gambling beings bois

what do i gamble

[onyx steeple]

and no one calls them what the map calls them 😦

[dawn geyser]

I do.

[wary valley]

god bless rng

[dawn geyser]

I call it Zb-1013

[whole thistle]

@onyx steeple

"medical" is crackhouse

[fallen hollow]

what scav karma do you have?

[onyx steeple]

oh thank you. I've been looking for a map like this

[whole thistle]

Me and my friend call it "reshala's house" a lot lol

[wary valley]

2

[dawn geyser]

lol

[fallen hollow]

cause it takes longer for the scav case the less karma you have

[whole thistle]

Yeah

All these "rich giga chads" with 200 hour scav cases because "karma is pointless" 😢

[kindred vault]

wait you guys use scav cases? 😛

[dawn geyser]

I do

Are you trying to fight.

[bold kernel]

I refuse to.

[kindred vault]

i would never pick a fight i'm guaranteed to win. i like a challenge 😮

[bold kernel]

But it looks more and more appealing as the stash size gets smaller.

[kindred vault]

no that's a lucky scav junkbox sir, not the scav case in hideout^^

[bold kernel]

Oh, that one.

Yeah, that's a good box.

You get some worthwhile things from scav case.

[kindred vault]

i used it last wipe to get keys but this wipe i realized, farming dorms the first 10-15 levels will bring you every key in existence (no keycards obviously)

[dawn geyser]

You don't really run it to farm keys

[kindred vault]

i run it to farm keys, safes, reshala and marked room

[whole thistle]

Yeah tf lol

[whole thistle]

He means scav case isn't for keys

[dawn geyser]

I mean that's not the purpose

[kindred vault]

oh the scav case

i used it for keys

i didnt give a crap about streamer items

[whole thistle]

Fucking phone thinks I live scabs

[kindred vault]

im not giving moonshine to scavs that bring me weapons without dust covers or stocks

[bold kernel]

anyone trying to run some raids, NAe i'm new but can frag got a handful of lv 40+ kills

[solid agate]

how did u guys do wounded beast survival path

ive been having my teamate try to shoot my legs out

but i cant break my legs for some reason

ive tried jumping off railings on facotry

but it just blacks out my legs

[cosmic tinsel]

you gotta get just the right height

[solid agate]

i been trying

but i black out both legs with no breaks

like i was in this one raid with everything blacked out except my had

head

[cosmic tinsel]

if legs are blacked you jumped too high

[solid agate]

but somehow no pain

oh

[cosmic tinsel]

you dont get fracture if you get blacked legs from jumpin

[solid agate]

i jumped off the very top of factory

oh

so like

2nd floor

instead of 3rd maybe?

i dont know exact heights since i dont spend my time trying to break my legs

[cosmic tinsel]

i use metal stairs

and i go from like, the first landing

[solid agate]

yeah

oh

i use those stairs

that go up to office

sogo up one flight?

[crimson geyser]

What does (-5.36 MOA) mean?

[whole thistle]

I had my friend shoot me in the arm with a pb at the beginning of the raid lol

[solid agate]

like 1 full "set" up

[whole thistle]

That's how I did the tremor quest too

[solid agate]

ive been doing that all morning

my guy gets blacked out arms like 6 times a raid

but no fracture

[wary valley]

welp ive been getting head eyes/jaws 2 raids in a roll fun.

[whole thistle]

Shoot once, heal, shoot once, heal repeat

[solid agate]

ive done that like 20 times on factory

im using PB and the base ammo

[high mason]

Oh fence... you shouldn't have

Anyone else only get garbage from the scav/pmc extract?

[dull arch]

is there any way to get more than one slot in the water collector

[dawn geyser]

Generally that's what you'll get.

[dull arch]

for filters

[dawn geyser]

No, there's no way ; not that I know of anyways.

[wary valley]

100k gaming bois

[dawn geyser]

Enough to insure half a kit

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

you max hideout management or crafting i forget which

[dawn geyser]

oh lord

I forgot about that

[cosmic tinsel]

gives you extra fuel, air, and water slots

lol

[dawn geyser]

I wonder how long it actually takes.

[cosmic tinsel]

idk

i was religous about alternating crafts until like, level 40

i think crafting and hideout management are like level 30 now

[meager fable]

Can someone help me with a quest? ^^

[solid agate]

the what?

u get free stuff if u do pmc/scav extract?

[wary valley]

yes

[high mason]

oh tire girl.... yes, yes you get free garbage when you extract as a PMC or Scav with a Scav or PMC

[solid agate]

i just craft basic items to turn into advanced items

like

wires into pc cords

pc cords into wires

and repeat

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah

[solid agate]

im always crafting random stuff

[cosmic tinsel]

lower profit but higher xp

[meager fable]

Anyone who wanna help me with a quest? 😄

[solid agate]

well not truely random

[high mason]

What task bud?

[high mason]

I've been running every part of my hideout continuously and I'm at like 11/16 on skill levels. Its a little ridiculous

[meager fable]

gunsmith part 3, but I can't buy the mag yet. Just wondered if someone can buy it for me and drop it to me, ofc in exchange for its worth

[high mason]

lemme back out of my queue. I'll bring you one bud

Whoop.. nevermind, just found a match. Give me a few and I can.

[meager fable]

thanks man!

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah im lower than i thought

[high mason]

Lol.. as I tabbed back in... "loading loot" haha

[meager fable]

yeah no worries, tysm

[high mason]

I'm running alternating super fast crafts to maximize my points, then doing the long crafts when I go offline. ... still... I just don't get it.

[cosmic tinsel]

yep

[solid agate]

u playing r?

[meager fable]

Can you dm me when youre ready?

[high mason]

I'm screwing around on reserve leveing my sniper skills haha

[solid agate]

wanna help me

cuz im egirl

[high mason]

wiiiith?

[solid agate]

uhh

that jaeer quest where u have to kill scavs while in pain

also like interghance warehouse inventory quest from ragman

[high mason]

You need the logi key?

[wary valley]

Ok man im not having fun lmao

Just got head eyes head jaws then head eyes

That is a fkn instant take a break for a while

[solid agate]

oh i also need skier key

[runic patio]

I have both a red rebel and reap-ir i dont want but they’re not found in raid :/ what do?

[cosmic tinsel]

you should 100% keep and use the red rebel

its important for reserve

[high mason]

and learn how to use thermals... they're fun too

[cosmic tinsel]

the reapIR is needed for 2 late game quests

or you can yolo it and use it

[crimson geyser]

What is the point of the NF 34mm RIS ring mount. If you can put literally 4 scopes on it??

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah

[runic patio]

Meh, too broke for that. 1.7 mil in bank, im just gonna use vectors and nades till im a PvP god

Prolly never

[high mason]

YOu do need a thermal for a gunsmith task later. Is it the right one?

[runic patio]

Idk. Reap-ir

[cosmic tinsel]

it is

[runic patio]

The guy also had some cool night vision on

[cosmic tinsel]

reapir is right for both gunsmith + test drive

[runic patio]

Anyone have any nice 1x/ 2x optics for vector?

And any advice for picking a flashlight?

My first thought is “use any all the same” but tarkov doesnt seem to work that way?….

[cosmic tinsel]

they pretty much are

[cold lantern]

idk my fav flashlight is the x400. and my personal favorite optic is the pk06 but a lot of people use the holos

[cosmic tinsel]

any eotech xps

[reef urchin]

woods is so fucking annoying

[runic patio]

Woods is ez pz when u learn it

[reef urchin]

nah i keep getting sniped and shit

[runic patio]

After like 20 runs u learn where ppl spawn around you

What u need on woods?

The jaeger task?

[reef urchin]

lmao

me and my friend have tried the jeager quest at least 7-10 times and we've gotten clapped every time

[river ruin]

Keep a spawn map open to refer to when you spawn into raid. It's saved me many times

[cosmic tinsel]

introduction?

[reef urchin]

yeah i use a map

[cosmic tinsel]

happy to run it w you guys

[reef urchin]

maybe i'll ask her

we just keep getting murdered is the issue

[dawn geyser]

Rule #1 when loading in spawn

Don't stay in spawn

[reef urchin]

yeah

[dawn geyser]

xD

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, i can teach you meevos guide to risk management

[reef urchin]

lol

[cosmic tinsel]

we'll pull it off raid 1, maybe.

[rough scarab]

i remember onetime i was helping someone do intro and we got clapped by scavs

damn scav house gang

[cosmic tinsel]

i did it with someone last weekend first try

[reef urchin]

my friend is still in the woods raid but i died lol

[runic patio]

I helped a friend get that note earlier, can help you get it if you need.

[reef urchin]

aight

[runic patio]

Lmk

[reef urchin]

she's gonna get off soon so i'll go with y'all :D

[cosmic tinsel]

sounds good. slap a ping

[runic patio]

Also LMAO how is this gun fair

[reef urchin]

holy shit

[dawn geyser]

It's fair because 9mm

[reef urchin]

i'm down now

[runic patio]

Recoil just no exist?

[dawn geyser]

Anything under 40 recoil is basically you don't have to manage it

Just kind of hold your cursor there

[river ruin]

If you suck at pvp no gun will save you lol

[runic patio]

Im getting better and better

slowly

[dawn geyser]

If you load into woods no gun will save you

~Sniped from orbit~

[runic patio]

My fps dies on woods, sub 60

[toxic blade]

Im aware a lot of stuff like the docs case and the key ring can spawn on the old gas table, but like how actually common is that?

[dawn geyser]

-patpat

DLSS is coming

[runic patio]

But schturman there and nice loot so idk

[toxic blade]

Because i usually either find weapon attachments or provisions

[dawn geyser]

Single digit %

[runic patio]

Lol .01%

[toxic blade]

pain

[reef urchin]

aight @cosmic tinsel can you hop on rn?

[dawn geyser]

maybe even decimal %

[reef urchin]

i'm ready to go :)

[runic patio]

Its definitely sub 1%

[cosmic tinsel]

hokay 2 min

[dawn geyser]

@cosmic tinsel stream for me? 8D I want some entertainment

[reef urchin]

aight

[dawn geyser]

While i'm at work

[proven hemlock]

I have no freakin' idea where to spend all of that stuff.

P.S. All of bags are full.

[toxic blade]

Im either gonna have to do nostalgia or punisher 5 :(

or get the therapist trades which is annoying as hell

[runic patio]

Or buy them?…

[dawn geyser]

Consolidate all your backpacks into 1 stack

[runic patio]

I got my docs case from therapist trade, its not that bad fr

[dawn geyser]

And get used to having only 1 stack

[proven hemlock]

Why?

[runic patio]

Run some dorms safes bro

[toxic blade]

I am level 6

I do not have flea

[dawn geyser]

Better for organization

instead of opening each one "Whats in this one"

[runic patio]

Why are you worried about docs case/ keytool at lvl 6? UwU

[toxic blade]

The only chance I have for getting them rn is finding them in raid

[dawn geyser]

It doesn't give extra space

Aside from the pillbox

[toxic blade]

Because 2x2 secure container is not fun

[river ruin]

Yes stack your sacs

[runic patio]

Ik ik, but you should hard rush tasks/ rubles imo… (if you want efficiency) but everyone plays the game differently

[toxic blade]

I am doing that, just don’t get enough time to play so it usually doesn’t have that much of an effect

[runic patio]

You’ll get to level 20 before you get a docs case drop in raid

[toxic blade]

True

[runic patio]

Especially with the new dynamic loot

[toxic blade]

Dynamic loot is pain

[runic patio]

I dont mind it, when implemented properly I look forward to it

[dawn geyser]

I love it

The heat map on interchange will slowly spread out

instead of 1000 ° at techlight

[toxic blade]

Im a very methodical person so once I get a spawn I usually have a route I go to hit everything, but with dynamic loot it doesn’t really matter if I do that bcos it’s all basically randomized

[dawn geyser]

Nikita doesn't like preplanned routes

He wants to destroy that

[reef urchin]

personally i think it makes the game more varied and exciting

[dawn geyser]

Agreed

[reef urchin]

yeah your loot runs won't get as much

but thats good

going to the same place every time is boring

[dawn geyser]

But then again I'm someone who goes in to pew and not to loot

[toxic blade]

I am a rat who tries to avoid literally everywhere with high PMC concentration, especially bcos I’m still getting used to tarkov’s combat

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

[toxic blade]

It’s not “spam rush all graphics card spawns” kinda routes, it’s “minimize player interaction and hopefully come out with a profit” kinda routes

[dawn geyser]

lol

[toxic blade]

tis me

until I can get gud with this game’s combat and properly used to the game as a whole I’ve no problem being a rat

[odd lotus]

Can anyone drop me a 12 ga tactical choke?

[toxic blade]

I am starting to get a little bit more comfortable with the combat, but then again I also whiff a lot of my shots out of panic so once I can get rid of that adrenaline that comes w a gun fight I’ll imagine I won’t mind it too much

[proven hemlock]

Alright, done. But what to do with that stuff? :)

[dawn geyser]

What's in all of those rigs xD

[proven hemlock]

Can't really open more :D

[fading hedge]

So im having a very hard time killing sanitar

Any tips?

[dawn geyser]

Range if possible, or constrict LOS in houses

[proven hemlock]

I'm that kind of people who prefer to keep resources for future usage. As many as possible. And this game is literally killing me in that meaning. :)

[dark arrow]

dude what am i supposed to do when i cant even do any of my tasks like i just give up at this point

[dawn geyser]

I would personally sell those 30 rounders/car kits/bandages

[fading hedge]

So is day or night easier?

[proven hemlock]

Aren't those car kits useful?

[dawn geyser]

Use it or lose it

They're useful but they take up space

[merry silo]

this game causes me so much anxiety.

[dawn geyser]

Bring it in your raids

[hollow thorn]

Sell the basic bandages too

A lot of the lower tier stuff is cheap off flea so if you need it its not hard to get

[dawn geyser]

Basically anything you can buy from traders

Is probably pretty cheap

Considering your level

So just sell it buy it back later if you need it only

[proven hemlock]

As far as I'm about to buy the EoD Edition (in the 15th of Oct.) and my reputation with Fence is.. khm.. -1.92... I'm thinking about to find a guy to give him those resources and do a wipe on my account.

[fading violet]

well the event is over I don't think AI scavs shoot negative scavs on sight anymore right?

so -1.92 is not that bad and you can recover eventually

[pure mist]

they do but just not under 0

the event will attack any negative

but without it will only attack less than -3 i think?

not really positive

[fading violet]

yeah without the event AI scavs will only shoot -6 or below

[proven hemlock]

Srsly? +0.01 per completed raid lol

[fading violet]

you can raise it with co op extracts and car extracts

also they will probably do more events, probably

scavs are really not a big deal, if you are poor you can do pistol runs on your pmc and it's pretty much cost nothing

[hollow thorn]

car extracts give .27?

or .2

[fading violet]

.25 on first use

[hollow thorn]

yea so like

[runic patio]

Is anyone else finding their reticle fades terribly when using flash lights?

[hollow thorn]

a handful of those and you're gucci gang

[proven hemlock]

Hm.. Still, I think doing a wipe is way faster and also a good ability to make life of a random beginner way easier on his stage.

[fading violet]

what level are you right now

[whole thistle]

You don't need any special guys to reset your account you can just do that

[proven hemlock]

Because personally I'm ok playing with pistol or common AK-74 with almost no armor (or totally without it)

[proven hemlock]

Sec

[fading violet]

then yeah you can probably reset

[proven hemlock]

And all resources will be just... lost?

[fading violet]

yes you lose everything

and go back to lv1

[proven hemlock]

Man, that will be the most awkward waste lol

[hollow thorn]

honestly dude its not that big a deal

[proven hemlock]

Maybe

[hollow thorn]

just keep running raids and take car extracts

[fading violet]

If you want you can transfer some most valuable items to me and I'll give it back to your new account

[hollow thorn]

you'll be above 0 before the week is over

[fading violet]

or you can do it with your friend

so you can save some best items that way

[proven hemlock]

Why not actually

As I said earlier, I'm going to buy the EoD Edition in 15.10, +- in that time I'll do a wipe.

[whole thistle]

It resets your account back to how you started

Level 1 with starting stash

[proven hemlock]

Will give you those 500k rub. :3

[fading violet]

you don't reset when you upgrade to EOD

[proven hemlock]

Oh

[whole thistle]

lmao

[proven hemlock]

... xd

[fading violet]

when you upgrade to EOD you just get all the bonuses through your mail

and the trade rep upgrades apply automatically

[proven hemlock]

Ok, that's the thing that I was interested in.

[fading violet]

but yeah if you wanna reset and want me to hold some of your stuff we can talk in DMs

[proven hemlock]

Not only hold, I can share some

Depends on if you are interested in some of those resources or not :D

[green delta]

Ok lads where have y’all found your gas analyzers? Oli just doesn’t seem to have any at the moment haha

GAME STUCK ON UPDATING AT THE END AT WAITING IVE TRIED REINSTALLING THE LAUNCHER running as administrator resetting network on pc

[dark arrow]

im actually just softlocked in constant dying

[hardy marsh]

Did you try turning it off and on?

[dark arrow]

nope didnt work i am still bad at the game

all my tasks either have locked doors or some tedious bullshit like finding or placing something

and when i try i just die

like come on man

[hardy marsh]

Have you tried not dying?

I heard that helps

[dark arrow]

how do i do that

lol

[hardy marsh]

Just don’t get shot

[dark arrow]

i just died 6 times in a row trying to do bunker pt2

i got their first two times and died trying to leave

and then the other times i just died in my spawn

[proven dragon]

i have 0 respect for you and ive never met you

[wary valley]

7 flashlights with thermal execution

[half birch]

Need someone to help me reach lvl 20 fast, lvl 7 currently

[wary valley]

U do quests?

[cosmic tinsel]

do quests and develop the talent to do lab consistently

lot of ways to reach level 20, but "get good" is pretty much the only way to speed run it

[half birch]

I have a key card, but I'm scared to go alone 😂

[wary valley]

BOI

[half birch]

lol

[cloud rover]

hey during a scav run, do you get scav karma points when you get shot by scavs (not necessarily kill them)

[green delta]

Save it you need 2 found in raid for a quest

[whole thistle]

They're not hard to get once you're at that quest

It took me like 2 days of hunting reshala for it

[vapid beacon]

Is it better to strip a modified gun first then sell each part or just sell it in one piece?

[wary valley]

probably worth it to strip if its fir

[valid junco]

it used to be if u sold what u can to skier then the rest to mechanic but now you only save maybe 2-3k roubles now. but by all means do it for scav guns

[bleak crystal]

9x39 SP6 any good?

[valid junco]

its alright yes bc its val ammo i believe but if fir its not worth the slot if u can replace it

[vapid beacon]

@valid junco I just sell that to Mechanic, right?

[bleak crystal]

should i switch it for BP? Thinking about going labs with it

[valid junco]

yeah mechanic is ur man

[valid junco]

what kind of bp? 9x39?

[bleak crystal]

ya

[valid junco]

tbh its only gonna make probably 200ms difference if that

[bleak crystal]

I mean, i can just get another gun if val isn't good enough..

[valid junco]

i wouldnt reccomend using a val on wabs as its not got alot of ammo in its mags and if u get teamed or pinched by 4 raiders ur fucked

yeah i would just use another gun with a bigger map but use a gun ur comfortable with and good ammo

[whole thistle]

If you're selling to mechanic then disassembling changes nothing

[fading violet]

VAL is amazing on labs wdym

it's not like you need to kill 4 raiders with one mag

peek, kill 2, go back, reload and peek from another angle

[valid junco]

mag size tho and true but its good if ur good and dont miss shots

[fading violet]

30 round mags are good enough

[valid junco]

very specific situation

[fading violet]

since the ammo is really good

[bleak crystal]

i got 4 30 round

[valid junco]

its more a reccomendation than anything never said the gun was bad

[bleak crystal]

should be enough :p

but can take always take an AK with 60 round

[narrow gull]

4 val mags is kinda not enough

it's a bullet hose

[bleak crystal]

i am bringing 50 bullets on secure aswell

but heh

i prefer AK tbh

[valid junco]

@bleak crystal im assuming u dont run labs too often?

[bleak crystal]

i dont

[valid junco]

yeah then use what your best with the ammo is the biggest part tbh so dont try to use a shredder gun if u dont know / feel it well enough - you want to delimit the unknowing part as much as possible

any low recoil gun is good enough vector mk m4 all are metas as they are point and shoot yano

theres tonnes more but those are just a few

[bleak crystal]

hmm, i like using AK's

[valid junco]

roll it homie and just get some good ammo - half the players wont be using more than t4 and no helms anyways 😉

[bleak crystal]

ya

[pure mist]

30 rounders are more than enough

it kills everything within 2 shots

[bold kernel]

Does anyone know the key required for Database pt. 2 at Interchange? It’s called OLI logistics department office key. I’ll trade a Paracord for it

[valid junco]

think about it tho hes not familiar with the map and i dont know his skill level so chill its a good gun yes but not for someone not knowing angles and practising a new map

[valid junco]

u not lvl 20 yet?

[rustic mica]

is it worth to buy lucky scav box from therapist or should i wait for flea? im lvl 11

[valid junco]

u got eod ?

[rustic mica]

what is that?

[bold kernel]

No I’m 18 so close

[valid junco]

edge of darkness account

[rustic mica]

no i dont

[valid junco]

id wait as the quests after are locked behind lvl 25 onwards i believe

[valid junco]

theyre i think around 800k and if u have space i would wait

[bold kernel]

Okay I’ll do the other ones I can complete

[rustic mica]

alright thanks

[valid junco]

sounds good - still check the areas tho as someone may have done it

[hard tangle]

so its been over a week now does anybody know where gpu's are spawning in interchange apart from the odd 1 in the usual tec spawns which spawn 1 in 40 games or so

[merry dust]

nope

u gotta find stuff now

[valid junco]

they made pcs start to spawn with em now but besides the usual spots not really - good change to stop the people just farming them

[hard tangle]

so this only benifits the hackers as they can see all loot on the map anyway

greattt

[valid junco]

yeppp... its some fun shit

[somber rain]

Nikita being a great developer, once again

[merry dust]

OPH SHIT

I QUEUED REAL GAME

WITH A GPNCG EXFIL

GUCK

FUCK

[valid junco]

did u insure it?

ditch it if so

[merry dust]

nope

FUCK

[valid junco]

lol have fun play with heart

theyre not too expensive anyways so its not the worst - if ur stressing u sound like u werent gonna use it

go down fighting 😉

[merry dust]

i dont give a shit about the exfil

i just ned my gpnvg

[valid junco]

speedrun that exfil boi

[solid agate]

Speed run exfil world record any percentagd

gg ez

[steep arrow]

i have the task survivors path: tough guy quest, which med stuff can i use for it?

[twin garnet]

anyone wanna run some raids? this is my first wipe playing. just looking for chill players. dm if interested

[valid junco]

Yesssss

[rough scarab]

none

basically have to use 0 healing, you dont have to survive the raid though

so once you get the 3 kills you can either die or extract then hand in the quest

[steep arrow]

like nothing? not even a cat bandage thingy?

[rough scarab]

no

[steep arrow]

ah, ive been misguided then

[rough scarab]

it used to be allowed, it was a bug though and they probably patched it

[steep arrow]

fair enough, ill probably just camp scav areas and kill myself on the minefield so i wont be looted 😅

aka im poor

[jovial quest]

same :(

[wide goblet]

uh i just found a lab access keycard on a scav

that's worth a decent bit right

[rough scarab]

200k

[wide goblet]

holy shit

[cosmic tinsel]

reasonably common as you get scav karma up 😄

good incentive to behave

[jolly lily]

Bruh player scavs are dumbasses I tried to give one a fp-100 filter cause i didn't want to be overweight and the fuck shot me well I killed him and he a had labs like why

[wide goblet]

who should i sell my labcard to

[jolly lily]

The flea

[wide goblet]

i can't use the flea market

[meager burrow]

whiccch ammo better

for M700

[pure mist]

m80

[mellow matrix]

m80 is a lot better

[meager burrow]

ok ty

[reef urchin]

if i kill a scav on customs with my scav do i get the points for the prapor quest?

[dark arrow]

no

[reef urchin]

rip oki

thanks

[dark arrow]

all scav kills must be on pmc

np

[reef urchin]

thanks

[wide goblet]

how do i get the m1a

[rough scarab]

Peacekeeper 3

[wide goblet]

btuh

[lusty glacier]

does cultists affect scav karma?

[merry dust]

no

[lusty glacier]

good to know

[celest viper]

Do all headsets hear the same distance?

[rough scarab]

Yes

[tight vapor]

That's kind of vague/hard to explain.. headsets hear differently depending on their style. some boost bass more, so hear dif. i'll see if I can link you a video in a DM that goes more in depth

[fading violet]

all headsets have the same distance just they boost different sounds

[violet gorge]

Gssh headphones give me aids

[slow bone]

anyone know if colleagues pt1 is bugged?

i completed the quest

[fallen hollow]

did you do all 3 in one raid?

[slow bone]

but i cant hand it in

do you have to?

[fallen hollow]

yes

[slow bone]

oh

bruh

[fallen hollow]

you gotta do them in the same raid and survive

[slow bone]

thats cringe ngl

[fallen hollow]

yep

[slow bone]

alright but that explains it

thanks, king

[potent crater]

dead chat

[trim copper]

any tips for pistol kills quest/friend from the west? been spamming factory and idk if i wait to rng and complete it or if theres a better way

[dawn geyser]

What sort of pistols are you using?

[trim copper]

ive tried a few different things, shrimp with sp11 (all i have) glocks with pst trying the p225 with quake gonna see if that does anything

[dawn geyser]

Quakemaker won't be too helpful, using a shrimp i'm guessing you're 20?

[trim copper]

i am 18, had 2 kite gp for the barter

[dawn geyser]

Ah I see

[trim copper]

i thought quake wouldnt be too bad because if theres other nakeds it would be able to 1 tap to the chest

if not aim legs

[dawn geyser]

Problem is it's semi-auto

Unless you're using a G18 lol

Leg meta with semi-auto isn't great

[trim copper]

that is true

its just a struggle, really need the xp so i can get closer to 20 and get peacekeeper quests

[dawn geyser]

If you're sort of okayish with your aim, I would just attempt with glocks and aim for the head with PST

P226 has +100 recoil over glock from what I remember

[trim copper]

yeah the p226 didnt do too hot

[wary valley]

can i get some labs tips

im going into a raid rn

[dawn geyser]

Try Meevo, I rarely run labs

[wary valley]

fuck unlucky

[raw monolith]

is the dogtag case from therapist worth to buy?

[merry dust]

no

id sell the dogtags you get

[teal nest]

Why

[dawn geyser]

If you can be patient enough, you can barter for it later when you buy flash drives

[raw monolith]

i just wanted to get the dogtag barter from peacekeeper

[teal nest]

Id save them for barters

[raw monolith]

like when? xd do i have to do quests or something?

[dawn geyser]

You can barter at L1, but I don't think you have 3 extra flash drives handy

[teal nest]

Theres the junkbox barter

[dawn geyser]

Jaeger LL1 has a dogtag barter that actually makes money if you decide to sell the dogtag case to Therapist

[teal nest]

there will be plenty more in the long run

[raw monolith]

?

[teal nest]

How much do you have

[dawn geyser]

..No

Barter is a trade for materials

Jaeger LL1

3 Flash drives

[teal nest]

^

[dawn geyser]

Buy x3 Flash drives at ~59k (177k total) Therapist will buy for 194k

[raw monolith]

oh i need jaeger

[bold kernel]

Click fill item at bottom

[dawn geyser]

He's not

No he's not trying to buy it.

[teal nest]

You cant buy flash drives

[dawn geyser]

[raw monolith]

i was about to go and try to extract with the message and a boss bodyguard scav or someshit got me

[dawn geyser]

Yes, which is why i'm saying he needs higher level because I doubt he has 3 flash drives handy.

[raw monolith]

could someone help me with the jaeger camp thingy?

pain...

can i ahnd over the message as a scav?

or is pmc raid requiered?

[trim copper]

pmc

[raw monolith]

dang it

[trim copper]

if you run it at night you might be able to do it safer

[raw monolith]

welp i dont know the map that well and the boss still spawns if players aint

[trim copper]

thats fair

you can take pretty safe routes if you look at a map of woods to completely avoid the sawmill and shturman

[nimble cloak]

is there a lfg here i may be looking over it

[rough scarab]

are the bushes infront of three story dorms close enough to count for the dorms kills quest

[wide goblet]

how do i get a bigger pouch

[unreal horizon]

quests

and peacekeeper lvl 2

[pure mist]

Or throw in money to get eod

[raw monolith]

i did it yay

[dawn geyser]

Search up the punisher questline and work your way towards that

[wide goblet]

ok thanks

[dawn geyser]

You're looking for the epsilon container

[waxen dragon]

still a beginner ish, but where do i find 60 round mags for ak-74's? got a task for prapor.. not too good at tasks

[dawn geyser]

Good luck bud

[pure mist]

Craft or off raiders

[dawn geyser]

Easier to craft them, or look for raiders on Reserve that drop them

[waxen dragon]

lvl 16 so i dont got the flee market yet

[dawn geyser]

You can't buy it off of the flea market anyways.

[waxen dragon]

shoot i figured id have to craft em

cuz i knew if i was lucky enough id find em in raid

[dawn geyser]

Found in Raid = Not purchasable from Flea market

[waxen dragon]

oh whaaaaaaat i didnt know that

[dawn geyser]

It needs the white/green checkmark that marks Found in Raid (We refer to it as FIR)

[waxen dragon]

the checkmark thing i know

[raw monolith]

worth it or nah?

[waxen dragon]

my friend tossed me croutons for the jaeger task, found out it didnt work lol

[unreal horizon]

do you have a 30mm scope?

[raw monolith]

nah

[unreal horizon]

then no lmfao

[raw monolith]

lol

wsafe key important tho?

[waxen dragon]

ratowski 😂 i love that name

[unreal horizon]

ty

[waxen dragon]

couldnt u buy that scope mount?

without trading

i think i seen skier or jaeger with it

[unreal horizon]

cant get 30mm lvl 1 jaeger iirrc

think just 25 or rbarter 30

[nimble cloak]

anyone willing to show me the ropes

[waxen dragon]

i is dum dum

the one i thouuuught was buyable is the one hes talking about lmaoo

[raw monolith]

is the compass good?

and like can it be looted or is it like the melee?

[dawn geyser]

Good for if you don't know maps and callouts sure

[bold kernel]

im really new to the game, just upgraded my ram but i dont load very well, anyone wanna help me with quests and whatnot?

[dense hemlock]

when doing farming part 1 do i need to live or can i fix it and die

[merry dust]

[potent crater]

how much do dollars stack in

[pure mist]

50k i think

yeah 50k

[potent crater]

ok

[crisp nest]

die

[toxic blade]

yo, need some advice. got a wooden clock from a raid, and i checked the wiki and it said that i could get a grizzly kit for it once i hit jaeger level 2. should i sell it now for 40k or wait until i can get that grizzly?

[fading violet]

if you don't have inventory issues you can keep it

if you do sell

[toxic blade]

alright, will do. one more thing, i'm at about 1.2 mil roubles rn, and i wanna buy a lucky scav junk box. i was thinking getting to 1.6 to have some 500k to fall back on after i buy it. is that too much or nah?

[feral locust]

Personally once i hit the almost 1.2 needed for it i bought it lol

[fading violet]

i bought it immediately because I have gear in my stash

[bold kernel]

customs raid?

anyone

[potent crater]

is zvezda shrapnel zvezda shrapnel with a ks-23M viable for PVP? and i have only shrapnel in my pockets

[fading violet]

I usually have a ks23 and a smg

and only have flash rounds in ks23

[crimson geyser]

How do the different materials work for armor and helmets?

[fading violet]

different material breaks down at different speeds and repairs differently

[crisp nest]

just carry a 2nd gun

[potent crater]

im carrying an berreta for like farther stuff

anyone know good guns to run in labs?

[waxen dragon]

would someone wanna help me out rq with a task?

its The Bunker part 1

[cosmic tinsel]

m4

[potent crater]

do you have a not multiple million ruble build?

[waxen dragon]

i guess i just gotta extract out of it

[cosmic tinsel]

no

[potent crater]

do you have any build?

[cosmic tinsel]

i just slap together whatever gets my recoil down at the price point i want

no

lol

[potent crater]

oh ok

[cosmic tinsel]

longer barrels = less recoil

[potent crater]

but also less ergo i think?

[cosmic tinsel]

saker suppressor was meta, not sure if it still is

qdss is cheap

fortis is bis if you have it unlocked

se-5 otherwise

i usually just use MOE butt stock

but like... if you get your recoil under 55 you're good imo

[bold kernel]

what's the point of the slim field med pack?

[cosmic tinsel]

not really a point

there was an argument for bringing it to labs

ive never worn one into raid

[bold kernel]

ah ok, so it's for if you wanna just go into raid and stock up on medical stuff

[idle bobcat]

someone please carry me as a pmc
