[real trellis]

its all i have though

[crisp nest]

wtf

[solid agate]

thats not normal

[real trellis]

10m*

[crisp nest]

play pmc

[real trellis]

i do

[solid agate]

t gs can only pen tier 2 armor

at that rate ur better running at them xD

[real trellis]

thats the setup i just used

some terrible shit but i mean i got kills

[solid agate]

true

what lvl were the pmcs

[real trellis]

18 and 27

[crisp nest]

running that kit is basically not running pmc

esp. on fac

[real trellis]

OH NVM

one was 46

[real trellis]

its cheap as hell and i got kills with it

well half the stuff i got from a scav run

[solid agate]

did u aim for head

how are u penning the armor

[crisp nest]

and you aren't questing and it's factory where u get 0 loot

[real trellis]

i got one in the thorax and one in the left leg

[crisp nest]

yeah so they were naked

[solid agate]

how is sformance penning armor

[haughty olive]

Reshala just killed me as a scav but i have positive scav rep. Is that a bug?

[hollow minnow]

to be fair those shelves on office floor be having questionable shit

[real trellis]

i think only one was wearing armour

[crisp nest]

class 0

lol

[hollow minnow]

i found an rsass on one lmao

[real trellis]

one had a pistol

[solid agate]

oh pistol runners

[hollow minnow]

bosses may shoot someone if they're just aggroed in general

[solid agate]

i thought u went up against actual armor

[real trellis]

he had this

[haughty olive]

Oh that’s inconvenient

[solid agate]

prob pistol running quests

[hollow minnow]

chances are someone already shot them or there was a pmc that pissed them off

[real trellis]

other guy had this i think if not idk where i got it from

[hollow minnow]

that is

sum

to say the least

[solid agate]

my best rag to riches on facotry was

me going in with red rebele dropping my lvl 1 friend a bolt for his hideout

[real trellis]

wym?

[solid agate]

meleeing a scav

[hollow minnow]

the gas block in the sightline

[solid agate]

grabbing a shotgun

killing an altyn guy in office

[hollow minnow]

the fuckin

reflex sight with the front sight blocking it

[solid agate]

gas black isnt blocking

[hollow minnow]

yes it is

[solid agate]

its the front sight

[hollow minnow]

the front sight is the gas block

[pure mist]

It’s part of the gp coin barter for the ones who hasn’t realize

[solid agate]

thats a thing?

[hollow minnow]

thats what the mk12 is for

it removes that shitty little top sight

[solid agate]

i thought gas blocks were jsut the ring

[real trellis]

this better for you?

[solid agate]

or maybe i only use mk12 xd

[hollow minnow]

put a mk12

and yes

it will be better

[solid agate]

i dont like that sight

get a holo xD

[hollow minnow]

will it work

yes

is it good per say?

no

[solid agate]

are you good per say

[hollow minnow]

[solid agate]

😳

[real trellis]

what do i buy with my gp coins?

[hollow minnow]

there are trades for guns

your traders arent very high so i assume you don't have any

[real trellis]

i have a few

[hollow minnow]

i think with the event there is also like slick trades and shit

[hollow minnow]

yeah

[narrow gull]

but slick for gp is so baaaaad

[dawn geyser]

The Gp trades for the inflated prices aren't very good

To my knowledge anyways

[crisp nest]

^

[potent crater]

i have max traders (besides ragman but that doesnt matter for this) so with max traders does anyone know a pretty cheap m4 that is really good? im looking for 200k - 300k for gun not mags and ammo just gun

[fading violet]

300k you can build a meta m4

[potent crater]

really?

[fading violet]

yeah

[potent crater]

last time i checked without traders it was like

800k

[fading violet]

yes but with traders is about 300-350k

[potent crater]

the advanced tube and gas block shit on the price

do you know a meta build?

[fading violet]

yeah I do 1 sec

[potent crater]

ok thx

[jaunty mantle]

With level 3 traders I can get an M4a1 47 ergo 44 recoil

Around 200k

[fading violet]

@potent crater

[potent crater]

tahkn you

thank

that doesnt have upgraded gas block

[peak sparrow]

anyone want to help me with quests?

[fading violet]

wdym? if you use the other gas blocks you can't use that handguard

and that's the meta handguard

[potent crater]

?

oh

wait really

[fading violet]

I haven't used meta m4 in a while, but I'm pretty sure mk12 is fine

[real trellis]

Lets goo

[lusty glacier]

pretty sure u can use the JP enterprise gas block with that

[real trellis]

man im so close

i can almost smell it

[potent crater]

only 99 more to go good job

[jolly lily]

What a steal too 100% go grind the rest

[potent crater]

ikr

only 50,000,000 rubles for a Red Rebel

[real trellis]

what in jimboes name is this

[potent crater]

look you can change it for -2 ergo but better recoil

[fading violet]

nice

[potent crater]

idk if it is worth for -2 ergo tho

thanks for showing me the meta build

[crisp nest]

isn't sai qd bad for ergo

or am i dumb

oh it has the mag in

[real trellis]

hahahahah

just yeeted a nade like 10 metres and actually killed the guy

[pure mist]

No

It’s good for ergo compared to mk12

[lime nimbus]

i heard you can put an m4 reciever and put into an adar to make it automatic. how do i do that?

[pure mist]

Buy a stripped m4 from mech

And put Adar parts on it

[lime nimbus]

how do u buy an m4 reciever

[jolly lily]

you can buy a m4 lower from mechanic its 20k

[lime nimbus]

is it lvl 2

mech

[rough scarab]

pimped out airframe

that whole helmet costs like 250k or more

[jolly lily]

idk it the highlighted red one hard to miss

[real trellis]

the helmet is 250k~?

[rough scarab]

it costs 250k to build

ish

[real trellis]

oh i just sold it to ragman

lol

[rough scarab]

actually im off more like 150k

[rough scarab]

only option would be to sell to ragman or use because its not fir

[woven stirrup]

i need help logging in

[real trellis]

Any worth keeping

[pure mist]

So not worth lol

[rough scarab]

yea

[river tide]

what are good ammo that doesn't break the bank for 5.45 and 5.56?

[rough scarab]

BT for 5.45 or 56a1 for 556

though if you have max traders 55a1 is pretty cheap

[bold kernel]

can someone help me out? i dont know what gun to bring to labs with a tv-110 and a ulach i have all lvl 3 traders exept peacekeeper? I like the guns with the caliber gzh

[daring grove]

Caliber gzh

[crisp nest]

[bold kernel]

pst

[narrow gull]

m4, ak-103, akm, mutant(i think), val(if you can buy 30 round mags), mp7(i think), p90, mdr

like pick your poison

[real trellis]

Ayo

[stiff hound]

lol

[torpid wind]

could someone help me out and teach me how to play?

[real trellis]

What time zone are you?

[torpid wind]

pacific standard

[real trellis]

welp im 8 hours ahead of you xD i dont think i could help sorry

[torpid wind]

its all good thank you tho

[real trellis]

feel free to dm me any question though i can try my best to answer them

[real trellis]

MY GRENADES ARE INSANE

i heard him and a friend

threw it randomly in the air and got him

its a shame my sound was glitched and couldnt kill his friend

they where chonky aswell

[loud summit]

is there anyone that can show me around interchange? really need flash drive and gas analyzer and its a map ive been wanting to learn since i got reserve customs and factory down

[potent crater]

anyone have a meta mk build? Like an image in the preset editter

[brittle canyon]

just click on the best parts

[merry dust]

@reef spoke

i raised a mini you

hes a vss lover just like you

[shadow bloom]

Need someone to help me with the kind of sabotage quest for skier

[summer cedar]

is it a better idea to buy 7.62 bp, or craft it?

[pure mist]

Or you can change the handguard

And use cqr

[brittle canyon]

do the highest isk/h craft and use the profits to buy bullets

[summer cedar]

what's isk/h?

[brittle canyon]

sry rouble/h

[summer cedar]

ah

[brittle canyon]

eve habits lol

[summer cedar]

if you don't mind me asking, what is the highest one?

is it just shampoo over and over

[brittle canyon]

download database for tarkov app
hideout guru website

[summer cedar]

some said crafting 9x19 AP is good, but idk

[brittle canyon]

u want to alternate between top two crafts to level skills & watch the market because the tarkovmarket API lags behind

sometimes some random ass craft spikes up to high heavens but when you actually look at it the price has already corrected itself

but I'll tell ya this the nutrition block was never particularly profitable and all you basically do is alternate snickers and nrg

[summer cedar]

yea

looking on hideout guru, it says that bleach is most profitable, at 26k an hour

which is...very low

i could scav stash run on interchange and pull minimum 100k in 15 minutes

[brittle canyon]

but crafts are passive

is the difference

[summer cedar]

true

eh, i guess i just expected it to be higher

did they nerf crafts somehow, or was it always this way

[brittle canyon]

if u can afford the stash space you should camp the orders to sell at the right time

[summer cedar]

yeah, stash space is kinda low for me rn

[brittle canyon]

stuff like nails for example I swipe like 30 of them when they're going for 6k 7k

[summer cedar]

but thankfully i have a ledx and opthamoloscope waiting for me to level up to get that sweet thicc case

[pure mist]

It varies

[brittle canyon]

and on other days they're like 21k

[pure mist]

It can be ap6.3 or sp6

Sometimes spp

[brittle canyon]

7n31 was good for a week or two

honestly just depends on if you can get the materials for cheap

and if you can sell them at the highest price

[summer cedar]

ye, i guess

[brittle canyon]

also stuff like pcbs

camp until it spikes to 22+

big fuckin stonks

[pure mist]

Sp6 and ap6.3 is what you want

Stick to one of them

And craft til you have a whole ammo case

Big profit

[summer cedar]

on an unrelated note: was the tv-110 barter always just one rig per restock?

i swear it was 2 or 3

[pure mist]

Yeah

Always been one

[brittle canyon]

also star round

idiots buy it for 33k per

[summer cedar]

oof

[brittle canyon]

camp survL and get them for less than 10

[summer cedar]

it's like, 2k from prap, right?

[brittle canyon]

yes

but only 2 per restock

[summer cedar]

ah

does rag sell any good class 4/5 armours at lv4?

currently my lifeblood is 6b3tms if i'm ratting and/or desperate, and tv-110s when i wanna go a bit more in terms of durability for questing/pvp

i'm just saving up ushankas and round glasses to get a hexgrid

[pure mist]

Cpc barter

And tv rig

Honestly I really have not been buying any t6 amour

I get them off players quite a bit

[summer cedar]

the cpc is 1 ripstop, cordura and whiskey right?

[pure mist]

No

[merry dust]

labs got em

[pure mist]

3 cordura 3 ripstop

1 whiskey

[merry dust]

did a couple labs raid cause a lot of the kiddos i introduced wanted to learn

free slickies

and theyre 138k each

[summer cedar]

ah gotcha

well it's a good thing i've got like 5-6 bottles saved up

gonna chad out once i reach rag 4

[pseudo yacht]

is it worth it to get a bitcoin farm going this late in wipe

[reef spoke]

Very nice.

[brittle canyon]

10gpu might pay for itself by thursday

[merry dust]

what ammo you use?

hes an sp6 guy

[desert fractal]

im getting unity crahshed every other raid now, reasons why and any fix ?

[reef spoke]

SPP and BP are my go to

[rich rose]

where can i find thermal scope so i dont have to spend 500k roubles on one

[devout spire]

12 gp coins i think

if you have some already

[rich rose]

how do i put a nv mount on this

it only shows visor

[brittle canyon]

linked search untick all filters

u also can't run both a visor and nvg at the same time

[pearl pier]

What does the fresh wound status do?

[edgy plover]

A fresh wound will revert into a Heavy Bleed if the affected body part takes major damage, such as a bullet. Also, sprinting may cause Light Bleed.

[pearl pier]

Can I remove it?

[brittle canyon]

it will time out

[edgy plover]

No

Lasts a few minutes

[pearl pier]

Does it always appear when I heal a heavy bleed?

[edgy plover]

Yes

[pearl pier]

I see

[hybrid wharf]

anyone got time to vc and give me the dummies guide to eft ? no fucking clue what im doing

[brittle canyon]

do quests

[rain tundra]

Scavs don't spawn thermals?

[rain tundra]

Kiba can spawn one. Barter, or craft if you don't wanna pay

[brittle canyon]

the craft ends up being similar in price anyway

[rain tundra]

Yes if you buy it all from flea

[clever ether]

Anyone Wanna help a newbie. Getting owned bad 😂

[velvet nimbus]

good?

[dull tapir]

Only player scavs can spawn with thermals

[languid cove]

Does GMcount is required for any task?

[brittle canyon]

wiki holds your answer

[tough oyster]

should i keep walk speed on scroll wheel or stance height?

i was told that if im walking on anything but the lowest walk speed, i can still be heard

[hallow island]

you can still be heard on the lowest walk speed

you can be hard anytime ur moving tbh

so unless ur going against a 50 year old milsim player who busted his ears during military, people will hear u, so just move like a monkey and use making too much noise to ur advantage

[drifting jolt]

make walk speed on scroll, and use shift/alt/ctrl + scroll for stance

but you should be using the 'walk' key before scrolling all the time

[tepid garnet]

Bois i finally lost my scav kit

Got sniped on woods…

[digital latch]

whats an easy location to get started on

[tepid garnet]

Rip my broken adar you will be remembered

[hallow island]

customs, alot of the early stage tasks are there and its a easy map to memorize

[digital latch]

thank you

[tepid garnet]

Be carefule. Customs is also intense sometiems

[digital latch]

ill try offline first

[viscid tapir]

I started on interchange, lot of scav kill 3k xp/raid i got lvl 15 easily doing dailyes and whit this amount of xp

[languid temple]

do scavs ever drop with pistols?

[thorny phoenix]

is rb-st a good key?

[wispy willow]

its sells fpor 400k on flea

[thorny phoenix]

i see it has good spawns inside but its pretty expensive

[elfin elm]

reserves is dangerous

but VERY fun

huge variance in engagement distances, types of fights, loot options, and environments

you can use any gun you want on reserve, just find the spot it fits

[thorny phoenix]

went reserve to try bunker part 2

i died both raids in 40 secs from nowhere to a raider or glukhars follower near the big helicopter

[narrow gull]

they spawn in the area

[thorny phoenix]

im just gonna leave prapor on lvl 3 for now

[languid temple]

raider is pmc or scavs?

[brittle canyon]

scav

[viscid tapir]

Svac whit better gear and ai

[peak sparrow]

looking for a partner eu to help with quests and keys

[elfin elm]

raiders are like higher difficulty AI enemies

[languid temple]

oh ok ty

[elfin elm]

usually spawn in certainl places under certain conditions

[languid temple]

everytime i scav into reserve, all the pmcs are gone

[bold kernel]

WHAT the hell. Raider came out of building and shot towards me and i jumped and didnt shoot back (he didn't hit me) and he just stared at me, so i thought he was another scav player, and then he ran past me and didnt kill me.... :D i really thought he was a player so i followed him into a building and he shot me in the stairs????

i really do not understand the behavior of raiders

should i have shot him back lol?

how do i even recognize players

i lost bunch of good stuff because of this error in judgement

[narrow gull]

ai good

[hallow island]

were you on a scav run?

[bold kernel]

yes i was

[narrow gull]

recognising players is mostly experience

[bold kernel]

why did he miss the first bursts in the first place?? i was like 5 meters from him

was it like warning shots or something?

[hallow island]

raiders ai has always been stupid af

[narrow gull]

but what you're looking for is ai kind of movement - sliding, no jumping, very stiff
ai kind of behaviour - no clear goal
player-like habits like wiggle or something

[hallow island]

but yes, kill them if u a scav

[narrow gull]

ai good

[hallow island]

they dont count as scav so u dont lose rep

[narrow gull]

but generally the first few shots ai will almost always miss

if they weren't aggroed before

[languid temple]

do raiders look different compared to normal scavs?

[bold kernel]

i bet they were looking for someone because they seemed angry (a lot of angry russian speaking from inside the building) this was the only one that i saw... i was in reserve helipad yard

should have shot that bastard

damn it

i found like 160bs ammo and all :(

if i shoot raiders do the other scav bots aggro?

[hallow island]

no

[bold kernel]

are u sure

i mean 100% sure

[hallow island]

yes lol...

raiders arent scavs

[bold kernel]

ok........ lol this helps a lot then

[hallow island]

they are completely different

[bold kernel]

yeah

[languid temple]

can u tell the different between the two easily?

[bold kernel]

ive killed a lot of them in the past (like 1 year ago i used to hunt raiders and get rich that way)

[hallow island]

raiders are generally way more geared, and speak english

[bold kernel]

this one speaked russian

but he had singular name

no last name

[hallow island]

oh

then its a guard

[bold kernel]

he had a helmet, some vest, and silenced AR

[languid temple]

scav boss?

[bold kernel]

so there was a boss inside the building i guess

[hallow island]

yup

[bold kernel]

so guards count as raiders?

[hallow island]

explains why he was missing and running away

[bold kernel]

if i kill guards do the scavs aggro?

[languid temple]

they are scavs i think

[hallow island]

guards count as scavs

[bold kernel]

well fuck

why did he shoot me

mean bastard

[languid temple]

scav bosses/guards aggro on normal scavs

unless 6+ fence

[hallow island]

guards dont like you near them unless u have 6+ rep, they warn you and give you time to go away before killing you

[bold kernel]

my fence is -0.40 lol

yesterday a group of 3 player scavs attacked me and i only had a shotgun but i managed to kill them all in a doorway so i lost a lot of rep

[languid temple]

wait isnt - fence rep means every scav attacks u?

[bold kernel]

not for me atleast at this stage

[narrow gull]

not necessarily

[hallow island]

if u get to -6 rep thats when they insta aggro you

[narrow gull]

was an event like that but that's long over and i don't think i've seen people complain about every scav being aggressive at - rep

[bold kernel]

oh snap

this new rep stuff is confusing

fun at times

but confusing

there was a hunt party for pmc's in this particular match so it was fun untill that guard killed me like an animal

now i will hunt for guards/raiders

i am angry

[languid temple]

u lose rep for guard kills im pretty sure

[bold kernel]

how sure

if they want to kill me anyway

wouldnt that be illogical

[languid temple]

lol u kill a scav boss as a scav

u lose a shit ton of rep

[bold kernel]

why do they want to kill me then

and i cant defend myself

its like a twisted law

[languid temple]

ur supposed to run away

[bold kernel]

lol

cruel world

its really hard to gain rep

and really easy to lose it

what gives the most rep?

[languid temple]

heard using a car extract first time each map gives 0.25rep

[celest sage]

Car extracts and coop extracts

First of each on each map is +0.25 iirc

[bold kernel]

damn

so im farming reserve as a scav

and solo scav

no rep for me :(

[narrow gull]

except coop extracts start at 0.2

[languid temple]

damn

forgot factory exit on woods was a coop :/

wish there were more scav exits on right side

[stable vector]

anyone need someone to help them learn? I am EU

[real trellis]

i just spawned in i have 0.55 scav karma but i get killed by a ai scav within 45 seconds?

i didnt do anything but they wanted to kill me

[visual quiver]

did you come in with nothing but a melee one of my friends i tried getting into tarkov with told me they target you if you do something like that

[real trellis]

i played as a scav solo

[visual quiver]

ah yea idk then lol just unfortunate luck?

[real trellis]

i was looting the stash by gas station and they just started throwing nades and shooting me

customs

[visual quiver]

i'm still like brand new so i wouldn't be able to tell you i just knew that melee only thing

[hallow island]

probably reshala then lol

[barren kiln]

Yeah defenitely

[real trellis]

Holy fuck

the best factory raid ever

that level 43

was camping extract

i had to leave some shit aswell i had 4 black out areas and heard footsteps

[hallow island]

not even 40kg smh

[real trellis]

Oh snap

[languid temple]

fuck found out what this meant the hard way

[real trellis]

what does it mean?

[languid temple]

mines or some shit

i walked a bit and boom

[barren kiln]

yeah landmines near the convoy

[languid temple]

scared the shit out of me

[celest sage]

Worst part about the land mines isn’t that you take damage it’s that people know you are injured and where you are

[fallow spade]

nice you got boss cap

don’t sell it

[celest sage]

Need for task right

[merry dust]

Yeah

some jaeger one

[toxic blade]

I have 20 gp

What guns should I buy

[real trellis]

why

[solid agate]

Sell them for 1m

Then buy your own gun

Like akms or smthin

[toxic blade]

Only 4 are FiR

[real trellis]

just had a good scav run after that good ass factory run

[solid agate]

Whered u go

What y get

[real trellis]

got all that from customs

im trying to sell the shit now

[solid agate]

Nice

Prob around 200 to 300k

Depending on the ammo inside mags

[real trellis]

considering i spawned in dorms and all of it was on me basically

[solid agate]

Wait but u don't have flea

[real trellis]

yea im only level 11

[solid agate]

Hmm ur losing big moneh

[real trellis]

im trying to get higher from playing pmc

[solid agate]

I suggest pistol running simple quests like marking vans

[real trellis]

i got 5k xp from one factory run

[solid agate]

And finding special quest items

[real trellis]

Ammo in the mags

[wet otter]

45 ap out of vector is cracked

ngl

[real trellis]

yea the guy emptied a whole magi nto me and i didnt die

[wet otter]

prob is just bad lo

[real trellis]

im not able to spend my rubles ive spent the last 4 raids surviving with the shotgun and those shells you said where bad

killed like 4-5 people and a few scavs aswell

Whats that 1 point?

[wet otter]

its a bug or something

not intended

[solid agate]

Bp is good

1k a bullet

T45 is something u find on scavs

Which is bad

[forest yoke]

where can i buy this game at a cheap price?

[potent crater]

what?

are you talking about piracy?

or on sale?

if you want a sale then probably around Christmas i would guess

if you are talking about piracy then go away

[narrow gull]

if you're not buying from www.escapefromtarkov.com you run a risk of getting perma'd

[dusky wyvern]

0.1 intellect lol tiny brain

[tardy axle]

@everyone

[thin plaza]

hello. n00b question. Running say PP19. Looking at the ballistics. I'm solely aiming for face/legs right?

[true hemlock]

hey, where do I report users that want to sell cheats?

[strong barn]

#discord-mod-mail @true hemlock

[rain tundra]

Yep but it's not really viable to try and farm them lol

[dull tapir]

ofc not

[true hemlock]

thank you @strong barn

[narrow gull]

there's ap 6.3 and pbp that can pen most helmets

at least with fire rate that smg have

pst can also pen class 3 helmets

anything below pst on pen is better used for legs imo

[fallow spade]

pbp works but isn’t worth the price

[thin plaza]

@narrow gull @fallow spade thanks both. 180hrs into my first wipe. Started about a month ago.

I guess also depends on what others are wearing. I'm looking for a bit of a 1 size fits all for a lvl 16. But i think my approach is wrong.

[pure mist]

Ap6.3 doesn’t even pen t4

lol

It’s a garbage round for 900-1200 a round

[narrow gull]

you no recoil put 3 shots in a second in the head

it will pen

[pure mist]

5-6 shot ulach

Prob blunt kills before then

Lol

[bold kernel]

what do i sell

[narrow gull]

idk why you think it's 5-6 shots

[pure mist]

Even the crappy t4 it’s 4 shots

Penetration chance with battle buddy

[narrow gull]

i already said i don't trust bb

[solid agate]

ur not viable

[pure mist]

Ulach needs at least 4 shots to be even possible to pen

[solid agate]

whats bb

[narrow gull]

battle buddy

[solid agate]

6.3 has decent chance of tier 4 tho

accordin to wiki

pbp is tier 5

[narrow gull]

what i base my observation on is getting rekt by 6.3 and killing shit with 6.3, not bb

[solid agate]

wait nvm

thats tier 3

[brittle canyon]

get a dogtag case
chainlets all batteries lighters mayches longwd40 hmatches green filter tea clin lcd sas ssd

[solid agate]

but it has a decent chance for tier 4

[bold kernel]

thxs

[unreal horizon]

30 pen vs c4 is not a decent chance

It's a tiny chance

[solid agate]

on wiki it just says initial less pen

[solid agate]

but 9*19 shoots really fast

[narrow gull]

sigh
i gave my perspective, you give yours, the guy can try it and decide if it's worth

[unreal horizon]

Well no shit damaged armor is weaker

[brittle canyon]

vector, mp9 does
mpx is acceptable
mp5 I wouldn’t rely on it

[solid agate]

ye mp5 is not that good

also do helmet protect all head or just the area they cover

like for ulach

[brittle canyon]

it says the area

[solid agate]

im guessing it doesnt protect face

oh true

[pure mist]

Use 45 vector

[solid agate]

45 vector op

i only use 9*19 cuz i have too much for some reason

budget gear

[brittle canyon]

45 ap is 38 pen

[solid agate]

it still shoots fast

[ebon mortar]

45 rip hit them legs boii

[solid agate]

so it kinda negates the low pen

[pure mist]

Faster than 9x19 vector

[solid agate]

ye

i thik ill have to check later

but ive shreded tier 5 armor and 1 tier 6

i have used 9*19 vector yet

havent

[pure mist]

45 vector 1100 rpm 9x19 is 950

[solid agate]

im just gonna say that feels about right

[brittle canyon]

TIL

[polar basin]

What would the best map be to start on for a beginner?

[unreal horizon]

Customs

[flint creek]

when do weekly quests reset?

[whole thistle]

A week after you accept them

[flint creek]

@whole thistle i forgot when i accepted mine, and completed it already. is there a way to check?

[whole thistle]

Don't think so

[flint creek]

@whole thistle okay, thanks for the response and help.

[sly saddle]

yes there is go to the trader that gave you your weekly then check the "Show Completed" box

[flint creek]

@sly saddle I'll check that out, thank you.

[sly saddle]

👍

[polar basin]

@unreal horizon why customs?

[whole thistle]

Lots of early quests are on customs and it's not difficult to learn

And it has loot

[polar basin]

Alright, thanks

[real trellis]

how do i record like the last 5 mins of hameplay?

i found the most obvious cheater

[river rampart]

Nvidia geforce experience

[real trellis]

how?

[river rampart]

Have it installed, ALT Z and set it up

[real trellis]

so i cant record what just happened?

[languid temple]

no

very few games have in game recording

[real trellis]

i spawned in on factory and got shot straight away through the some boxes

its 24 seconds because i had a few blacked out areas

he had to reload aswell and ithrew a couple grenades

[narrow gull]

if it's in glass area you can shot through the boxes

and i think there's a cheeky peek in between the boxes

[real trellis]

but i literally just spawned and didnt move

like i mean just spawned

i didnt even move and got shot i heard either tagilla or some scavs so i stayed still for a while

[gilded cove]

Report button is there for sus but ya that's about the best that can happen my guy.

Happens to a lot of us.

[wet otter]

you can see people through the cracks on the boxes

if ur talking about glass hallway

[gilded cove]

Factory you canot really stand still in certain spawns you have to move.

[rough scarab]

thats not too sus for factory tbh

spawns are super easy to remember and pushing spawn is super easy because of how close together they are

[wet otter]

^

[pure talon]

on most maps, unless you're on interchange and plan to rush techlight, after you spawn you have some time to set up your weapon, turn on the laser, etc.
on factory you don't have that luxury, because the moment you spawn in there's already someone coming your way and you have to start acting immediately.

[gilded cove]

I've legit spawned and turned and seen another player

[rough scarab]

thats normal for factory

Ive literally pushed out of spawn and run into players

if youve ever played COD think of factory like shipment

[bold kernel]

hey guys i need help with my game ....ive been playing a while now and everything was normal...but now i get allot of stuttering while playing ...any idea why or how to fix this problem ?

[rough scarab]

they updated the unity engine which probably is why

[bold kernel]

ye but when i did the update it was working fine

[narrow gull]

what do your graphics settings look like

[narrow gull]

what does your ram consumption look like

[long depot]

Why cant i sell half this like mishapped gun to any vendors except fence?

[narrow gull]

also i heard some people get better framerate with mip streaming than without

[bold kernel]

whats mip streaming ?

[narrow gull]

i think it's streaming textures in mid game

[long depot]

like no one will take my mf vpo

[narrow gull]

do you have 2 gpu?

maybe one external and one integrated in cpu?

[rough scarab]

sell to fence

[bold kernel]

no

[narrow gull]

what does gpu consumption look like?

[merry dust]

10%

Cpu at 100%

[merry dust]

Fence

[narrow gull]

like honestly idk, doesn't seem to bottleneck anywhere unless this is load in menu

[merry dust]

If that’s resting it’s fine

[bold kernel]

imma have a look again after the mip streaming and if its still dosnt work maybe its a good time to give up on the game idk

[narrow gull]

also concerning that tarkov takes up 2 gigs resting and it's already 45%

during gameplay it's usually 8 gigs for me

[rough scarab]

could be memory leaks

[bold kernel]

I have 16 gig tho

[merry dust]

def memory leak

that shit is extremely common

[bold kernel]

Free space 400 gig

[narrow gull]

memory leak can be identified simply as tarkov consuming way too much ram

2 gigs isn't leaking

[bold kernel]

Idk i updated my laptop to 16 gig ram because of the game and for 6 months it was working great

[rough scarab]

oh its a laptop

[narrow gull]

idk, try gameplay and see in resource monitor if it bottlenecks

[bold kernel]

Ye its a new laptop tho

[narrow gull]

laptop = heating issues usually

[bold kernel]

Almosy 1 year

[narrow gull]

they're very compact

[rough scarab]

is your laptop plugged in when you play

[narrow gull]

compared to actual pc

[bold kernel]

Ye always

On the power

[narrow gull]

maybe your power cable is failing

[bold kernel]

It says its charging

[narrow gull]

or accumulator

yea, but maybe it's not charging consistently, hence the stutter spikes

[rough scarab]

does the performance go down the longer you play or does it start with bad performance

[narrow gull]

also also try updating gpu drivers? usually doesn't work but since unity update maybe it'll help

[bold kernel]

Ok sooo looks like its working again . . .

[tropic shore]

Anyone knows where a nsv machine gun can be found got a quest to kill scab with it but don’t know what do

[merry dust]

It’s the mounted lmg

at fortress etc

[bold kernel]

I legit dont know how its worjing again but thank you guys alot i really appreciate it

[narrow gull]

they're mg nests on reserve and customs

[merry dust]

we did everything for you, pay us 7m in bitcoin

[bold kernel]

I can give u 1 GP lol

[tropic shore]

Gotcha so ima go to custom n try n finish the quest

[merry dust]

no thanks that’s a handout

[merry dust]

good luck lol

[tropic shore]

@merry dust thanks mate do ya know if custom is good or reserve would be better to kill scab with ?

[real trellis]

i died

[narrow gull]

there's an mg nest in small skeleton overlooking crossroads, sometimes scavs on the road near ice cream shop

[real trellis]

by getting shot in the fucking ear

[barren kiln]

lvl 10 btw

[tropic shore]

@narrow gull Ohh gotcha I’ll go try that one

[barren kiln]

which of these are usefull to keep?

[merry dust]

I’d go reserve and like use the one on top of the buildings

[merry dust]

That’s a good one

in front of fortress

does it face bus depo?

[celest sage]

Go item by item and check it on the wiki, if it’s needed found in raid for a task then keep, if not then sell

[narrow gull]

not that one

[merry dust]

then wtf is small skeleton

CONSTRUCTION?

[narrow gull]

mini fortress

[celest sage]

Everyone has their own callouts there’s no standard ones really

[narrow gull]

across from meth lab

near tigr roadblock

[merry dust]

true true

[narrow gull]

gotcha gotcha

[merry dust]

WTF IS A METH LAB?

[celest sage]

My friend calls stronghold new construction

[merry dust]

WHERE IS METH LAB????

[celest sage]

Cook meth

[merry dust]

[merry dust]

I know sir

[narrow gull]

same place as crack house

[celest sage]

Methamphetamine

[merry dust]

I thought it was like the place near fake ruaf and the ice cream shop #1

[celest sage]

Ice cream shop?

[narrow gull]

wth is fake ruaf

[merry dust]

Place in front of ruaf

like 2 of the blue things in front

[celest sage]

Tf are fake ruaf and ice cream shop

[merry dust]

ice cream is the intersection shop

between ruaf sniper roadblock and highway

[celest sage]

What is highway

I think I know where you’re talking about

But what is highway

[merry dust]

Crossroads?

U know that?

[celest sage]

O

[merry dust]

pepeeegaaa

[celest sage]

Why would that be called highway

[merry dust]

Cause

It is a literal highway

[celest sage]

It’s just a normal road wdym

[merry dust]

but it’s high

[narrow gull]

more like a 2 way street though

[celest sage]

Yeah

[merry dust]

so it’s highway

[celest sage]

No

[merry dust]

it also looks like one

[celest sage]

No it doesn’t

Have you been on a highway tf you aren’t like going past buildings and there’s no highways with only 2 lanes

Sounds like a scuffed af highway all the cars hitting each other

[merry dust]

it is scuffed

It’s a god damn tarkov

[celest sage]

Well I think it’s an airplane runway then

[merry dust]

It can be

[celest sage]

Just a scuffed one

[narrow gull]

gta moment

[celest sage]

Anyway my squads callouts are ridiculously scuffed

We call mechanic/garage the gamer zone

[rough scarab]

lol

[celest sage]

We call crackhouse Intel spawn

Stronghold is new construction

[merry dust]

makes sense

only gamers die to cultists in there

[celest sage]

One of the skeleton buildings is called construction and one is called baby skeleton

[merry dust]

No

It’s fortress construction and skeleton

[rough scarab]

fortress makes sense because of the defensive stuff set there

[celest sage]

What do you guys call the red warehouse

With the offices for the tasks

[rough scarab]

like the machine guns and GL

big red

[buoyant mason]

imagine running customs

[celest sage]

Because we call that shit Clifford lmao

[narrow gull]

construction is skeleton and skeleton is baby skeleton and new construction is baby construction
got it

[rough scarab]

lol

[celest sage]

Best callout

[hallow island]

red..

[celest sage]

Clifford the big red warehouse

[tropic shore]

@merry dust ayy I got 3 kills at that spot last raid kinda just camped there entire raid lol thanks for the tip

[crisp nest]

mfw shadow u arent giving me these tips

[long depot]

fr @merry dust spill the tips

i wanna kill 3 people in that spot in my next raid by camping there the entire raid

[merry dust]

Wait what now

it worked?

[long depot]

spill the tea shadow

[merry dust]

I don’t even remember what i said

[merry dust]

BRO IDEK WHAT I SAID

[long depot]

whats the best loadout for pre lvl 15?

[merry dust]

Sks ez

[long depot]

i got like 3 mill to spare but idk what to use it on, i was on like 300k then sold the shit i hoarded

what with just PACA and penis helmet?

[celest sage]

I personally wouldn’t even penis helmet but it’s personal preference

[crisp nest]

i personally would just run a rig

the armor wouldnt work

headset though ofc

[celest sage]

Yeah paca will only be for scavs and buckshot

[long depot]

noted.

since when was it lvl 15 flea though damn

it used to be lvl 5 then 10 was barable but aids

now lvl 1555

[crisp nest]

it was 20

[celest sage]

This wipe it was level 20 for a while

[crisp nest]

yeah

[long depot]

holy

what

getting to lvl 15 is hard af

[celest sage]

Yeah it’s ass because people who are good already can get to it really fast

It doesn’t solve the problem

It just makes the learning curve harder

[long depot]

big time

im sat here tryna do the basic kill 15 scavs on woods

im not doing awful had the game like 2 days and im lvl 7 but

still

[celest sage]

My first wipe I made it to level 15 by the end of the wipe and this wipe I had level 20 in 6 days

[long depot]

HOWWW

how sir

[celest sage]

Use sks for that for sure

[merry dust]

I had level 20 in like 2 weeks

I’m first wipe level 45 btw

[crisp nest]

days is kinda it doesnt matter

its the time

[merry dust]

I barely played

and now I don’t play

[celest sage]

I know what items I need for tasks, know the tasks well, also am a child with unreasonable amounts of free time

[whole thistle]

In my first wipe I took a week for level 10 lmao

[long depot]

im a child with covid for the next week

but i still find woods cancer

took me like 7 attempts to get out with the jaegers camp quest

[crisp nest]

i pray for your lungs men

[long depot]

i have a 24 hr expire factory in and out quest, i cant do that for shit

meh i felt ass for the first 2 days

5 days into isolation, feeling fine now

[celest sage]

You have vaccine I’m assuming?

[long depot]

Nope

not yet.

[celest sage]

O

Not available or personal preference

[crisp nest]

the 2nd vaccine shot will make you sick

[long depot]

I'm 15 so its not known to affect us very much anyway.

[crisp nest]

probably

[long depot]

In the UK most people under 18 dont need 2 shots.

just the first.

[celest sage]

I got a 7 winstreak on the day after my shot, didn’t even tell anyone I got it lmao

[long depot]

Personal Preference for the most part, just havent bothered yet.

[crisp nest]

here it's 2 shots and if you're really old you can get a 3rd if you want

[whole thistle]

My friend had covid at 15 and still doesn't taste normally after like 6 months lmao

[long depot]

yeah i havent lost taste

smell

is gone

where can i find scavs on woods?

[crisp nest]

i used it as an excuse for playing badly in a cs match

lmao

[celest sage]

I got mine hella early so it felt like too much of a flex I didn’t want to brag

[tropic shore]

@merry dust yea the nsv mounted next to the big dome of reserve let’s me overlook a big area between the Knight buildings so it works just gotta get 15 mo lol

[crisp nest]

mfw theres no way you got 3 kills with that

[celest sage]

Scav house and the checkpoint then go to the mountain then back again is my personal loop

[crisp nest]

village

scav bunker

outskirts

aka scav house

and yeah checkpoint

also scav bunker scavs are on crack

i got 180 1 tapped while running by 366 ap

[long depot]

ouch

my one question is how to navigate woods

when first spawning i struggle to find my bearings

i usually just hope im near the broken plane as a lot of spawns i seem to end up there

oo SHIT i spawned at the prapor camp temporary thing

i need that for quest

[celest sage]

Compass

[whole thistle]

There's 3 huge fucking mountains that are good for gauging direction

One is in the map 2 are in the distance

[long depot]

nvm im not at prapors camp

im at the big mountain in the middle lol

Anyone got Sherap discord?

for maps

[whole thistle]

?sherpahub

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

[long depot]

ty

[real trellis]

i cant do anything in customs agaisnt these fat chonky sponky guys that richochet every bullet and absorbeds them

[thorny magnet]

Lmao just gotta avoid em

[real trellis]

considering i gotta go dorms i cant

[thorny magnet]

Tried nighttime raids?

[real trellis]

i cant buy nightvision

[celest sage]

Go on dead servers at night and you’ll see nobody

[thorny magnet]

^

[celest sage]

Imo it’s harder to see with night vision than without

[thorny magnet]

^^^^^

[real trellis]

wym dead servers?

[thorny magnet]

Like servers where it's 4 am for them

[celest sage]

Go on a server with high matchmaking time in a place where it’s 2-4am

[thorny magnet]

If you're that desperate

[celest sage]

Yeah when I go broke I just go on dead servers on resort

[long depot]

Bruh

why do woods scavs have aimbot?

looked at him for 2 damn seconds over a rock dead

[thorny magnet]

Usually if you're just using your head to peak they'll head eyes you

Since it's all they can see

[celest sage]

Yes same with raiders

[long depot]

fak sake

[merry dust]

glad it worked

[long depot]

ive put a balaclava on and now its like flashing and cant be dragged

wut

[thorny magnet]

Glitch, are you in your stash?

If so just restart your game

[long depot]

gotcha

[bold kernel]

which servers are the most dead

[real trellis]

russia

its like 3:43 am

but there is a specific one

you gotta choose

[bold kernel]

so i should just look at timezones

and choose servers in which region is at night?

[real trellis]

yea

[sinful osprey]

Chonky sponky

[somber summit]

When looking at mapgenie do spawns also count for when i spawn as scav?

[sinful osprey]

Think sp

Donttake my word

[bold kernel]

tf someone shooting tracers at me through the wall lol

[static bone]

need help with disease history if anyone is down

[bold kernel]

should i just stop scaving entirely for the rest of this wipe? not much time remaining

[solid agate]

Why stop

Just do whatever u want try stuff out

Be ready for next wipe

I'm blowing all my money trying stuff out

[bold kernel]

because scaving doesnt teach me anything

its just free money

[thorny magnet]

Bro what? Scaving teaches you a lot, go learn the maps lmao

If you know all of that go learn the items and differnent interactions

You always learn differnent stuff no matter pmc or scav

[bold kernel]

hmm

[open hedge]

[solid agate]

i enjoy scavving in between pmc runs

nice and laid back

u can just bum rush any pmc u want

[open hedge]

I don’t like scavs because it’s too peaceful

[solid agate]

scav reserve then

u spawn in starting from the 42 min mark

[open hedge]

Yeah

[solid agate]

average around 30 min

and go bunkers

[open hedge]

But scav kits don’t do well against slicks

Unless you’re a good shot

[solid agate]

ive killed pmcs with slicks

[open hedge]

Same but it’s not easy

[solid agate]

well to be fair something u get shit bolt actions

[open hedge]

Walk out missing a few limbs

[solid agate]

but if u get smg or rifle go reserve bunkers

[open hedge]

My scav always gets shotguns or aks

[solid agate]

shotgun is good

aks is good

even if the ammo is prob shit

[open hedge]

I get bp 762 every now and then

Very nice

[solid agate]

very nice

[open hedge]

I love getting 762 drum mags that shit bussin

Easy kills

Spray and prey

Always works

[brittle canyon]

pray

[bold kernel]

how do i overcome the dorms fear

everytime i hear anything from inside i just nope the f out

[solid agate]

go dorms

[bold kernel]

should i just go there with the expectation to die?

[hallow island]

become a yogurt male and stop being a pissy boy 😎

[bold kernel]

ofc try not to

but expect that i will

[solid agate]

yogurt is good

[bold kernel]

pistol run into marked rooms bad idea?

[solid agate]

ye

unless u get good spawn and beeline it in and out before others get there

[thorny kayak]

like that idea

[bold kernel]

the weird thing is im not even suffering from gear fear, its death fear, like im getting jumpscared everytime im being shot at and panic lol

[hallow island]

sounds like a common issue in gear fear 🦸

just 1 question, do you have any prior fps experience?

[bold kernel]

only valorant

but the feel is way different

the atmosphere

[bold kernel]

im fearing for my life even when loading into customs buck naked with mosin

doesnt matter what i wear

[hallow island]

i figured

[solid agate]

ye lots of people do that

i forgot the exact termiology

but its like u panicking irl when someone pulls a gun on you

something related to stress resistance

[bold kernel]

my smart watch warns me about high levels of stress whenever i play tarkov

[solid agate]

ye

[hallow island]

its really just a thing you WILL grow into, ive played fps games for years and instead of panic i can quickly in my head figure out if i need to pull out my gun and shoot back, or try to get to cover and heal

[solid agate]

stress training

its gonna take time

but it could help u irl maybe

XD

just remember u cant do surgery in 15 seconds

[hallow island]

its all about gamesense and just playing over and over

doesnt matter what ur brain is telling u, get into those fights my man

[solid agate]

and heal urself instantly

[hallow island]

trust me, it will get better

it will never get better if all u do is avoid fights whenever there is one.

[solid agate]

i sometimes avoid fights sometimes take them

[bold kernel]

ok ill try diving dorms heads in

[hallow island]

also if you can record, try recording ur deaths and sending them here, lots of people like to give advice

[solid agate]

playing in squads is also more fun

[flint creek]

can reserve raiders still spawn in D2 bunker after you turn on power? ran 10 raids, they havent spawned from that yet

[solid agate]

yes

its just luck based

they can also spawn on train if u want to wait that long

[bold kernel]

when im scaving its whole different story

[thorny kayak]

ofc
