[buoyant crane]

good VPNs don't increase ping by anything significant

havent noticed that, probably because you have low ergo

[celest sage]

If on vpn you can’t connect at all

[cold crag]

been using Mudfish and NordVPN

[open hedge]

Well then my usefullness is null

[celest sage]

You can’t use a vpn that’ll ruin it

[left hamlet]

is it smart to bring and insure helmets on early game raids?

[cold crag]

big yikes!

[buoyant crane]

which helmet

[left hamlet]

I take out an sks, 20 rounds a paca and a sling bag

idk any

[buoyant crane]

SSh-68 yeah its cheap and will always come back

[celest sage]

Why do you want to use one so bad

[buoyant crane]

others not so much

[left hamlet]

alr

[cold crag]

It's not that I want to use one tbh

[buoyant crane]

VPNs are a smart investment for anybody seeking privacy or security

[celest sage]

SSH early wipe other than that just use ones you have

[open hedge]

He’s hiding from his oppressive government

[cold crag]

if I could get a consistent ping without being booted that's just a win/win for me

[buoyant crane]

SSh-68 is good all wipe

it never loses high ric chance

[cold crag]

since that I won't have to pay for one

[celest sage]

At least where I live it’s not an issue

[versed valley]

it wont fit with m62

[open hedge]

Just get a really long Ethernet cable to play with her

[buoyant crane]

That you know of

[celest sage]

I can understand needing one in some places though

[celest sage]

That’s not how it works

[versed valley]

and gssh is pain to my ears

[buoyant mason]

Is it possible to do Gunsmith pt1 with the mechanic traded mp-133?

[buoyant crane]

Here's a good example why VPNs are good. It's real simple too, ever been DDOS'd?

[primal breach]

no @buoyant mason

[celest sage]

Just because I don’t have a vpn doesn’t magically mean my isp can see my passwords

[buoyant crane]

that isnt what I said

[celest sage]

Never

[buoyant crane]

I have

more than one occasion

know what they cant do to you if you're on a VPN?

[cold crag]

and in the meantime we can play shitty Valorant together

without a VPN

[open hedge]

Yes they can dummy it’s just harder

[celest sage]

What games are you playing where you get DDOSed

[buoyant crane]

not what I'm saying

[cold crag]

Well, I do understand EFT servers on the other hand

[buoyant crane]

they can kick you once, and then you can instantly change IP and get back in to whatever

[versed valley]

its mostly common in rust and gta online ithink

[buoyant crane]

if you're on a home IP and its visible, which is common, you can get complete service denial until you manually change your IP in your modem settings

[open hedge]

Dude if someone wants to fuck you over trust me they can

[buoyant crane]

no

Couple years back I had a guy hold my internet hostage for a full day

cause I didn't know how shit worked

if I had a VPN I'd be back on in 2 minutes

[open hedge]

Then he’s do it again

[buoyant crane]

no

because theres no way to reacquire

one and done

[celest sage]

Anyway you’re not going to get DDOSed on Tarkov so just turn it off while you play

[buoyant crane]

there has to be an unencrypted connection present where they can find your IP

if you simply do not allow that, their initial attempt will be the only one

[buoyant crane]

people do not turn VPN on and off often

people who use them prefer to keep it on

does tarkov full on ban VPNs or are you just saying it's going to ping kick you

lots of games still use jank ass encryption or no encryption btyw

[open hedge]

Tarkovs server (from what I know) have a bad history with vpns

[buoyant crane]

Siege is easy as piss to DDOS the enemy

[oblique jewel]

is there an easy way to navigate the woods map? I'm on my 7th attempt to find jaeger's camp and that place is just impossible for me to understand

[fiery rover]

quick question

[buoyant crane]

so is anything Xbox/PSN related

[cold crag]

Tarkov servers are garbage anyway

[fiery rover]

can someone shot me the ammo table for tarkov?

[buoyant crane]

just practice

[cold crag]

with or without VPN

[buoyant crane]

may not be up to date https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics

[oblique jewel]

A compass would help, but I gotta find the guy to get one, heh

[fiery rover]

na the excel chart

[buoyant crane]

yeah not up to date yet

[fiery rover]

with shots to penetrate ect.

[buoyant crane]

the chart is on that page

[drifting nebula]

you get one as a reward for a jeager quest

[buoyant crane]

only one you need

[oblique jewel]

Yeah, its finding jaeger's camp thats proving difficult

[buoyant crane]

its about landmarks

[oblique jewel]

I can reliably find my way to the lumber mill(?) but not much else

[buoyant crane]

trees look like trees but theres a lot of noticable things if you're paying attention

[drifting nebula]

i forget what chat im in sometimes, ill come help you if you want

[buoyant crane]

just takes practice and learning

or some dude hand holding which is fair enough

[versed valley]

like main are mountains around map

[oblique jewel]

I wouldn't turn down an escort tbh I'm struggling hard

[primal breach]

hehe

[drifting nebula]

NA?

[oblique jewel]

yep

[versed valley]

#pvp-lfg

[primal breach]

which type of escort

[versed valley]

if you want to find someone to help you its your best bet

[somber rain]

time to look for hdds

in the shitty ic

[celest sage]

I haven’t seen a lot of people getting banned for it but they definitely can, it will result in kicks, and if you use one to play on servers far away you will be region locked

[primal breach]

how much are all these keys worth

roughly

[buoyant crane]

good VPNs don't increase ping by any meaningful amount thouhg

and tarkov shouldnt have any capability to know if you're on a VPN or not except if you move distance really far

like you're originally NA in their server and all of a sudden you're in brazil

if you stay in your state you should not get pinged for any reason

[celest sage]

Mostly worthless, the rb- keys can be worth sometimes and east 306 is probably like 100k at start of wipe not much

[bold kernel]

lol what?

Look at some of those keys bro

[celest sage]

Dorms keys generally have no market value other than what they are from trader (not including marked)

[hallow island]

meh, a pretty decent bit of them are task keys, so alot 👍

[celest sage]

Also w205 is decent

[bold kernel]

key with tape

[celest sage]

Good key but low market value since it’s pretty common, might be high since it’s early wipe but I wouldn’t bet on it

[hallow island]

its that early into wipe that you cant base keys just off the fact if they have good loot behind them, most dogshit keys have insane value early on because they have tasks locked behind them

[primal breach]

does anyone have dorms 303

[bold kernel]

san tape, isnt thaty thje bottom floor of east wing with the hand on the wall?

[open hedge]

Yes

[primal breach]

yes

it has ledx spawns

and horse

and stuff

shoreline is really good for the docs case barter items

you can find every barter item there

and they're not really rare

[celest sage]

Yeah but I don’t think that applies to any of the keys in the screenshot

[primal breach]

some keys are task keys

[gilded skiff]

do you guys know why this isnt working for mechanic? https://i.imgur.com/g2YswHv.png

[primal breach]

i cant even do gunsmith 1

i cant find a gk06

[old herald]

@gilded skiff take off the muzzle brake

[sweet jungle]

Can someone help me get the Jager note? I have died 3x wondering around for it

[celest sage]

The only ones that are though are really early, by the time people get flea they’ll be past the tasks so it’ll be cheap

[gilded skiff]

ty

[somber rain]

im on rn, if you can take me to tarcone i could drop you the gk06

doing a scav tho

[old herald]

And fold it

you might also need a different grip

[primal breach]

i will just drop u tarcone

lets take this to dms

[somber rain]

ok

[left sluice]

so if i lost everything i could possiibly have in the game and have no idea what i am doing waht can i do

[gilded skiff]

as far as i can tell, its meeting requirements but he won't take it still. https://i.imgur.com/sU5rgQ9.png

[sweet jungle]

can you get the Jager note while being a scav?

[mellow matrix]

no

[celest sage]

No fetch tasks as scav, only find x item in raid and turn in

[bold kernel]

any advice on not having gear fear?

[left sluice]

so if i lost everything i could possiibly have in the game and have no idea what i am doing waht can i do

[somber rain]

holy fuck im getting 8 fps rn

help

[bold kernel]

because im afraid to loose a loadout that's worth 3 beef stews

[gilded skiff]

My recoil is too high. How can i lower it more?

[bold kernel]

im afraid to loose a loadout from a scav run

any advice on stop being a lil bitch?

[celest sage]

Everything will be gone at wipe, every death is a learning experience, I got endurance xp so it’s not a total loss I’m not crying you’re crying

[somber summit]

Get used to lose stuff. If you enter a raid. Enter with the expection that this gear is already lost. Survivingt, thus keeping your gearn shouldnt be in your mind.

[mellow matrix]

well, whats gonna happen if you lose it ?

[bold kernel]

fuck nothing

it's a DB loaded with 7mm

[mellow matrix]

exactly

[bold kernel]

and a cheese kit

[primal breach]

scav

[mellow matrix]

db is 9k from jaeger dude

[bold kernel]

8,7

[old herald]

@gilded skiff you're not under 550 total recoil sum. try a different foregrip and hope? the zenit rk-6 from skier would drop ergo to 57 but it has -1% recoil

[mellow matrix]

the price of 2 cans of coke on market

[bold kernel]

it's 1 dead scav with a saiga 9

[hallow island]

theres really no other advice other than, just get into it brother, you arent gonna get over it if you dont try to combat it, so you just gotta take a deep breath and just go

especially this early into wipe, i doubt u are losing anything worth actually shivering about

id understand if we were talking about meta guns and expensive ammo

[random cypress]

how do I enable the FPS c ounter?

[bold kernel]

i dont use that stuff

i use rat guns

[willow pike]

Is any of this stuff good?

[celest sage]

Hit tilda and type fps 1

[random cypress]

ty

[bold kernel]

100% rig,the sniper and the m32

[celest sage]

Fast mt and the earpiece are good, both gun sights, m700 is ok, rig is huge

[celest sage]

Fast mt helmet

[bold kernel]

dat rig is dummy thicc

[willow pike]

Bet, I just snagged these off some scav

i just got the game yesterday, pretty fun ngl

[hallow island]

the guns arent but the attachments are, rest of the shit like armor, helmet etc are all bad in general but they are decent since its early wipe

[rough scarab]

m700 is bad dura i dont think its that good

[willow pike]

i cant even sell it, im level 5

[bold kernel]

it's good if you can use it

[celest sage]

If that’s a real fast mt it’s 80k to traders dude

[rough scarab]

its a tk fast mt

[hallow island]

...?

[celest sage]

O

[hallow island]

its not a airframe lol

[rough scarab]

literally says it on the name

[somber rain]

fuck dude

[ocean axle]

you rather rock no helmet that thing is a piece of work

[somber rain]

just died to sniper scav as a scav

[somber summit]

Yeet that shit to fence. Never use sniper with that bad of dura

[somber rain]

i didnt see the dead body

[willow pike]

aight, even the gun?

[hallow island]

using any guns with low dura now is fucking risky as hell

with all the new malfunctions

[somber summit]

The m700 i mean. Keep the sight

[ocean axle]

keep the attachements and use the guns if you want but to me the attachments are worth keeping for selling or later use

[willow pike]

Ah, I dont think i can take the sight off

[somber summit]

Yes you can

[reef spoke]

the 700 and SV98 are fine to keep as scav guns.

[willow pike]

i dont have the custom weapons yet

[celest sage]

I had thought it was a fast mt not an airframe

[reef spoke]

they are the exception to the rule

[old herald]

thats the fake fast MT unfortunately

[somber summit]

Just open the gun and take the sight off

Ypu can do all that in your stash. No need for editing presets feature

[willow pike]

ohhhh

[celest sage]

What are you going to lose getting a jam on a sniper, going to die if you have to wait 4 seconds after reload?

[hallow island]

ever heard of how dura affects accuracy...?

[rough scarab]

it reduces the accuracy

[somber summit]

Dude has never seen the moa chart

[celest sage]

Ah didn’t know that I don’t snipe

[reef spoke]

The sv98 at 50 dura is still about 2 MOA, the 700 20" is about 3 MOA

[rough scarab]

you wont really hit shit at distance

[celest sage]

With this games zeroing stuff I’m not going to hit anything at distance

[rough scarab]

obv depends on the gun

[reef spoke]

If you can't head a head at 300m with a 2 MOA rifle its not the rifles fault.

[hallow island]

yeah, they are snipers so its gonna be decently low regardless, but if you use snipers traditionally so said long range, its still a big difference

[celest sage]

🔥

[hallow island]

im a labs main so i use snipers as if they were ak's

[celest sage]

You use ak’s wrong then

[bold kernel]

hahahahhaha

true ^

[hallow island]

???

[rich acorn]

i cant find a gas analyszer i have done so many games and have looked every where

[hallow island]

[reef spoke]

Speaking as someone who has been sniping in tarkov since .7 , unless your rifle has more than 3 MOA you are fine for head shots out to 300m , and body shots out to 500m.

I was using the vss to snipe for the last 2 wipes despite it having 3.16 MOA with SPP and still managed a few 300m kills.

[hallow island]

vss to snipe?

[celest sage]

Hot fix happened like 2 hours ago to increase chance

[hallow island]

blocked

[bold kernel]

what a fragile clown

[hallow island]

get a grip dawg lmao

obviously im joking

[celest sage]

Pretty sure he is too

Wait and are you too oh no

[rich acorn]

@celest sage whats the best place to look rn ive look all over reserve and have checked like 100 filiing cabinets

[celest sage]

I was going to say filing cabinets but I may choose to remain silent

[hallow island]

reserve drop down seems to be the most consistant spot lol

but after spawnrate change interchange might be good again 🤷

[rich acorn]

@hallow island ive checked that spot so many time about 20 raids in a row and no gas

[somber summit]

Jackets used to have decent spawn rates for it too

[reef spoke]

I'm not joking actually. Im the nut job who Veritas and Onepeg refrence for their zeroing vids.

[hallow island]

unlucky? 🤷 my friend's got all their gas ans in a raid or 2 from reserve

[reef spoke]

Vss do a hecking fall.

or did anyways

[left sluice]

I hate how I keep getting dc after I open a door on factory

[hallow island]

well yeah

sniping with 9x39 kind of a meme

especially compared to how good it is cqc

[reef spoke]

eh, I've fallen in love with the round IRL and in game, the ASH12 is also fun to snipe with since we don't have the VSSK yet.

[gilded skiff]

Dude wtf. This meets all the criteria and he wont take it https://i.imgur.com/FcJXSNg.png

[crystal wadi]

Are daily quest active? If so, is there any prerequisite?

[muted juniper]

level 5

[crystal wadi]

Ty

[fallen hollow]

its cuz you haven't activated windows

sarcasm

[gilded skiff]

🙂

[fallen hollow]

its because its not a AKS-74U

its an AKS-74UN

[gentle nexus]

anyone have portable bunkhouse key or know how to get it

[primal breach]

wait i just realized

do all vendor items

have a global stock limit

[fallen hollow]

no?

[gilded skiff]

wait are you serious?

[primal breach]

why are some items out of stock then

@fallen hollow

like mp133

[fallen hollow]

yes, gotta be a AKS-74U

[rough scarab]

they do

[gilded skiff]

fukin hell.

[primal breach]

all or some?

[fallen hollow]

oh wait yeah they do

all of them do

[rough scarab]

depends

[fallen hollow]

but most things dont get sold out

[muted juniper]

search jackets and shit

[rough scarab]

some have a super high limit so they basically dont sell out

[gentle nexus]

ive been doing that. ive got nearly every shoreline key but not a shitty bunkhouse key

[muted juniper]

i think keys also spawn in filing cabinets

[celest sage]

Yes

[muted juniper]

ig you can check the wiki too

for that key

[gentle nexus]

fuck it i dont need the key ima just break in

[rough scarab]

keys are pure rng

[gilded skiff]

Thank you. That worked

[rough scarab]

plus you can just check if its open while ur in raid

[fallen hollow]

no problem

[rough scarab]

since its start of wipe it probably will be

[serene adder]

dude survived 14 855 hits

gg game still not fixed

[celest sage]

Probably had armor

[serene adder]

armor blocked only 43 dmg

[rough scarab]

then u hit arms

[celest sage]

How much to body

[serene adder]

wasn't arm damage supposed to be fixed?

433

[rough scarab]

he probably healed

[celest sage]

So you almost killed him

Likely bled out afterward

[serene adder]

i didnt give him time to heal

[celest sage]

He has 7 health, assuming you saw no scavs that raid?

[rough scarab]

i mean it takes like 2 seconds to heal

[serene adder]

we just sprayed each other, reloaded and i went back to finish him off

[celest sage]

I’m assuming all 14 shots were one spray

[serene adder]

but then again M4 obviously cant shoot hipfire so all shots were missed the moment i tried hipfire

[celest sage]

Oh they could’ve easily healed thorax or popped a propital

And even then they didn’t need anything to survive, still 7 health left

But chances are they died to a bleed

If that’s the case

[chilly birch]

would someone please go into woods with me so i can jaegers camp task done. ive found it twice and can never find extractions. im so lost. google has next to nothing on a for real detailed map to use i can not find scav house no matter how much i try to get out of the with jaegers task and intell... please someone help me

[rough scarab]

i dont think scav house is a pmc extract

[analog fulcrum]

what was the minimum minutes in raid to not get run through?

[chilly birch]

no but you have to find scav house to find outskirts extract dude

[serene adder]

he didnt have time to heal

and look how inaccurate guns are now while trying to hipfire

[rough scarab]

oh right

[chilly birch]

have to find scav house to find outskirts extract

[rough scarab]

i mean just find the lake and go to the left side of it (right if youre facing the lake)

once you get to the mine field, go straight and youll see a car/camp/road which is the extract

[chilly birch]

i have..... many times i get to a saw mill type deal then get lost looking for outskirts. i just need some help

[rough scarab]

well you dont stop at saw mill, you have to keep going

[chilly birch]

well if thats it. its broken then i was all around there

[analog fulcrum]

saw mill is center of map, boss spawn area

[chilly birch]

do u understand. i get to saw mill. and go all around saw mill in 360 degrees for hundreds of yards..... no extract!!!~!

[rough scarab]

then youre going the wrong way

its not near the saw mill, you have to keep going farther

[analog fulcrum]

saw mill doesnt have an extract

[celest sage]

Use mapgenie for maps

[celest sage]

There’s no sawmill extracts

[rough scarab]

theres a big distance between sawmill and outskirts

[celest sage]

Can you click hide all so the map is legible

[rough scarab]

no

[chilly birch]

ya that sexact place where it says outskirts are.... i was all up in there

[rough scarab]

its still legible wdym

you were probably here then

[chilly birch]

and could never find scav house as well

[rough scarab]

then you went the wrong way

[chilly birch]

ok........ uninstall

[rough scarab]

👍

[celest sage]

From sawmill follow the edge of the water until you get to a landline sign then just go into land a bit

[rough scarab]

i told them to do that but they claim they never find outskirts

[wild kettle]

Idk if any of my other game experiences will help me

[primal breach]

the more it is, the faster you can play scav again and the better shit the scav has (you can spawn with 300k and more items)

[spice widget]

how do i make the rep higher?

[primal breach]

for example

i just spawned in

with a grizzly

[spice widget]

and a bomber nice

[primal breach]

yes

[spice widget]

ive been goin crazy w the mozin

so many 1 taps

[somber rain]

Taking bridge extracts, extracting, killing traitor scavs and pmcs

[primal breach]

use the sks

[kind goblet]

anyone have the dorms 206 key trying to do tasks

[spice widget]

bridge extracts?

[wild kettle]

Will any of my past game experiences help me through tarkov?

[somber rain]

Car extracts

My bad

[primal breach]

vehicle extracts increases rep

the ones you pay for

like 5k per

[somber rain]

Aim might carry over

Tarkov has very different aiming than other games

[primal breach]

movement wont

[wild kettle]

I played tons of rust

Thats rlly it

[primal breach]

eww

[spice widget]

as a rust player, not really

[somber rain]

Nothing of that will help you

[wild kettle]

Great

[spice widget]

learn the maps

i always have the map pulled up on another monitor

[wild kettle]

I only have 1 monitor though

[spice widget]

games imposible as a new player without one tbh

alt tab

[wild kettle]

Alr

Ill learn customs ig seems like a overall solid map

[somber rain]

Best beginner map

[spice widget]

i only play customs tbh

[somber rain]

Most starting tasks are on there

[primal breach]

i like how the lvl 4 is giving tips to the lvl 0 lmaop

it's hilarious'

[spice widget]

ive played the game for 3 years but ive never got that high of a level

[wild kettle]

3 years?

[spice widget]

no

[wild kettle]

You should be super good

[sly ruin]

HOW TO FIND GAS ANALYZERS

[primal breach]

3 years and no lvl 5?

[wild kettle]

If your active

[primal breach]

you can't

[spice widget]

im not

[somber rain]

Drawers in reserve

[primal breach]

i don't think they spawn on reserve rn

[spice widget]

ive always got on and played a little but solo gets boring so i quit

[wild kettle]

Over my summer break I’ll grind tarkov insanely

[sly ruin]

I CAN NEVER FIND THEM EVER

[spice widget]

highest was lvl 13 3 wipes ago

[somber rain]

Wait are their spawns changing?

[primal breach]

they only spawn on lighthouse, cumstons and factory

rn

[somber rain]

Damn

[sly ruin]

I heard it’s close to Zero chance of finding one

[somber rain]

Fuck nikita

Hes just dicking us over with this

[spice widget]

and its a fact that you its imposible with no map, like u cant guess where extracts if youre new and know which to go to

[primal breach]

gas analyzer is currently in the rare category

there is

common
rare
superrare

so it's more common than a gpu and a ledx

[somber rain]

I doubt it

[wild kettle]

Do you guys use stretched res or nah?

If so what do you use

[somber rain]

No?

[primal breach]

it spawns 10 timesm ore than a gpu

[spice widget]

what is a car extract?

[somber rain]

I just use 1920x1080

[primal breach]

trust me when im saying that btw

[spice widget]

i use it in rust not this

[wild kettle]

Why?

[somber rain]

Damn, I must've been lucky to find a gpu before a gas an

Fml

[primal breach]

i think gas anal has fewer spawn points and that's why

btw that was on purpose

[spice widget]

sometimes its hard to see people and when the game is crisp its easier to see for me at least

ik a small % of people do tho

[somber rain]

Damn

It spawns in technical crates, right?

[primal breach]

it spawns on some loose loots

and in drawers

[spice widget]

yo floppa earlier with scav karma what do you mean by car extracts raise it

[primal breach]

it's an extract

that has a car

[somber rain]

Paying money to car extracts raises your scav rep

[primal breach]

there are 4

[somber rain]

By extracting with it

[primal breach]

interchange, customs, lighthouse, woods

[spare meadow]

anyone else having an issue where your scav will not load into raid?

[spice widget]

i do that all the time as a pmc didnt know you could do it as scav

[somber rain]

So how hard is lighthouse?

[primal breach]

can't as a scav

[somber rain]

Have all the extracts been found?

[primal breach]

@somber rain i think it's like shoreline

there is already a map

[somber rain]

Ok

[spice widget]

doing it as a pmc raises scav karma?

[primal breach]

im at 8 mil

my other stats

[spice widget]

[primal breach]

yes

bakeezy ceo of movement

[wild kettle]

Will I be punished hard in tarkov for W keying

[spice widget]

[somber rain]

Ok

[spice widget]

13 min wait time awaiting sesh start wtf do i do

restart or wait

[somber rain]

Restart and go back into raid

Its bugged

[calm bone]

scavs are having long ques right now , i think part of it is just waiting the 8-9 min into the match for your spawn

[drifting nebula]

uhhhh....swag?

[somber rain]

Mega swag

Is that a new nade?

[drifting nebula]

very strange interaction tbh. I walked up on what i really think was a player scav and said whats up over voip and he turned to me and just walked straight at me while saying nothing, I said " woah woah" and next step i gave it to em. Had this on him, poor guy.

And yes its the new flash but i've got like 10 of em

For context I think he was player scav bc i walked up on him looting a stash

[spice widget]

why didnt u check kill log

[primal breach]

lighthouse?

cuz i know there is aesa on lighthouse

[shrewd fog]

Anyone find a way to lower queue times on scavs. PMC will get matches in under 2 mins. Scav on any map and its 10 mins of matching

[spice widget]

"server connection lost"

wow ok

[fair citrus]

can anyone help me please? i want to have fun with tarkov but i need help learning extractions which i cant for shit online and i have under 5 hours very confused.

[deep jackal]

why would my scav not be deploying i have been waiting 15 mins know

[spice widget]

wow now i have some dogshit ass scav

[shrewd fog]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/customs

[fair citrus]

ok thank u very much

[silk minnow]

[somber rain]

attempting to get into an ic scav

[primal breach]

[shrewd fog]

[spice widget]

FUCK THIS

[somber rain]

im trying to scav on ic but i cant load in

[primal breach]

[pure mist]

I ran one raid got lucky as f 52 seconds match times

Also it won’t be fixed

[somber rain]

[shrewd fog]

@somber rain going on 30 mins. Tried restarting game, tried selecting every server

[pure mist]

They are not adding servers

[primal breach]

@somber rain so how many dog tags do u have

[somber rain]

yeah, but why did scav matching times get so bad all of a sudden?

[pure mist]

It’s not a software issue it’s just server at capacity

[somber rain]

damn

[cold blade]

Does anyone have an updated guide for getting fence rep? Im only getting a small amount per vehicle extract and 6 rep seems years away

[shrewd fog]

but PMC will get a match in 2 mins

[pure mist]

Did you do it on every map?

[primal breach]

kill traitors and do coop exfils

[somber rain]

also, apparently gas analyzers are spawning a bit on ic rn

[primal breach]

lighthouse has vex too

[primal breach]

shouln't be

[shrewd fog]

@cold blade It goes down every time you use a V exit. Its not supposed to obtained in the 2nd week

[somber rain]

im watching lvndmarks stream rn, he found 4 in the last 40 minutes

[primal breach]

[unique steeple]

[spare meadow]

scavving is amazing

[fiery rover]

ic is bad

shu shu

in fact all just go reserve leave my maps alone

[pure mist]

I just don’t do it bc it doesn’t progress your pmc

[primal breach]

[pure mist]

Don’t like reserve

[spare meadow]

nothing better thab clapping a fatty pmc as a scav

[primal breach]

such a pain in the ass

[fiery rover]

[primal breach]

this task is

[pure mist]

They got rid of bear kills huh

[primal breach]

finding a colored keycard is better

[primal breach]

this is friend from the west part 1

[pure mist]

Yeah they changed it

Used to be bears as well? Or that might be another quest i can’t remember

[primal breach]

i dont think it was bear

good thing most people are usec now

[somber rain]

rate the early wipe drip

[primal breach]

drippy as hell

[ornate pendant]

Thrifty quest, place iskra etc. Can you only barter to get them?

[somber rain]

i am now currently uninstalling this game

[glad wren]

unistaling is faster than loading a game rip

[somber rain]

yeah, i just got shot by two scavs and a pmc at once on ic

i am never running ic again

[solemn notch]

did they buff scavs

[somber rain]

it seems like it

they've been killing me a whole lot more lately

[solemn notch]

i just got killed by a regular scav on customs who had 5.45 bt

went straight through my armor and i died in one bullet

[spring plume]

I'm wanting to upgrade to EOD but I think I will wait until the sale depending on the Price, does anyone know when it starts and how much EOD goes for?

[solemn notch]

thats dumb asf there were 3 of them

[spring plume]

Yeah, they will full auto you

No remorse

[somber rain]

scavs are wack rn

especially trying to play one

[solemn notch]

this scav ai feels like im playing vs glukhars guards everytime

[somber rain]

you cant get into a fucking match

i cant even do tasks man

something's different about this wipe

[solemn notch]

ive died to more scavs at range so far than ive died to players all wipe

25-50 metres getting shot by scavs

[somber rain]

yeah, its really bad rn

[fresh garden]

Is there a reason I can’t find gas analyzers like I did last wipe? I’ve been searching where they normally spawn and I can’t find a single one

[solemn notch]

@fresh garden they hard nerfed spawn rates

its like .00001 or lower or smth

[fresh garden]

Are you serious?

[brittle hare]

Found two in reserve drop down room in same raid

[fresh garden]

Good to know

[brittle hare]

but cant find any flash drives

or hunting matches

[unique plover]

found a flash drive on a scav and proceeded to die

[solemn notch]

and first day of wipe they were restricted to spawn on only certain maps

bsg really making this game harder

[unique plover]

at least i put it in my secure container, guess ill use it for intel center

[mellow matrix]

nice, but check out this AKM aka RPK :D

[somber rain]

nice

[unique plover]

it would be better if the durability wasnt 65 lol

[mellow matrix]

65 for a scav gun isnt bad :D

ive ran through 3 drums so far and it hasnt jammed

[spice widget]

is it worth it to buy the scav box?

[mellow matrix]

yes

[unique plover]

I prefer to craft it honestly

a mil is a lot

[mint horizon]

anyone want to assist me in gaining a gunpowder "hawk" or letting me buy one off of them

[mellow matrix]

[spice widget]

i have around 1.4m

[unique plover]

yeah just send it

[mellow matrix]

i wanna save up 1.5 mil and then buy so i have at least that 400k left

[cold blade]

Is the vehicle exit in customs a guaranteed spawn at the start of the game or is it a random chance to spawn?

[unique plover]

guaranteed

[cold blade]

so if its not there someone has taken it? there are ??? on my o-o

[brittle hare]

found gpu and flash, then raiders in reserve bunker 😦

[mellow matrix]

[mellow matrix]

oh

thats good to know

[cold blade]

thats some bs

I just want fence rep 😦

[mellow matrix]

i thught it was random wheather if it was there or not

[unique plover]

The ??? means it might be there. It'll be red if someone takes it

[mellow matrix]

[unique plover]

You're talkinga bout the one behind dorms right

[spice widget]

[rough scarab]

[unique plover]

@cold blade if you are looking at the car extract, go right, follow the wall. Keep going all the way across the train tracks, up towards the antenna, and then cross the road for zb11

[rough scarab]

why would you go naked

[vocal yacht]

[mellow matrix]

[frank oyster]

Aa far as I’m aware it should be, have had several friends hand it in without issue

[primal breach]

one guy just put up one for 450k

[frank oyster]

Keep it, you will need it for a quest later on
Also for some reason the fee is extra big on that key so you can’t put it up for much anyway

[primal breach]

mk

what should i sell now that i have flea

my hideout

[hasty edge]

best 12g slug other then ap-20?

[primal breach]

express imo

[hasty edge]

what about slug tho

[spice widget]

where do i get a gas analyzer

[hasty edge]

have nikita spawn them in for u bc they arent in loot pools

[spice widget]

how i do that

[hasty edge]

dm him on twitter

[primal breach]

#GasTheRats

[vocal yacht]

[spice widget]

so abt the gas analyzer was u serious?

[bold kernel]

nah hes messing with you

[spice widget]

soo how do i rlly get one

[bold kernel]

just luck

[spice widget]

pump frnt key?

someone said i could use that

[bold kernel]

they nerfed the spawn heavily this patch, they said it'll be fixed later on but we dont know when

[solemn notch]

lowkey think they silent buffed scavs

been happening to me too except i cant ever see them

[bold kernel]

yeah they technically spawn in that room but its not that common

[spice widget]

cant find a fuckin mp133 shotgun

[solemn notch]

@spice widget do jaeger note

you can buy them from him

[bold kernel]

you can buy those from jeager

[primal breach]

Join the movement, put #GasTheRats in your about me

[spice widget]

should i go in with a shit set to do it?

[solemn notch]

up to you

just do a nighttime raid if you somewhat know woods

[spice widget]

havent done woods in like a year

[bold kernel]

it's an easy task you can pistol run it if you have someone guiding you or you know the map well enough

[primal breach]

You can but it from jaeger

No need to be fir

[spice widget]

sounds like a shit mosin run to me

[hollow storm]

anyone got tips for a decent budget build? i've died three times in a row on woods im on 350k

[crisp nest]

u dont need anything good for woods lol

[hollow storm]

ok

[fiery rover]

depends on what you wanna do on the map

and if you are already lvl 15 so flea market access

[solemn notch]

if hunting schturman bring smth decent

bc that guys an ass

[fiery rover]

in general sks with scope is nice

but in the current state i think you can take almost every weapon and have a chance at killing stuff my best run was with a pp19

second best with kedr so currently everything works

[bold kernel]

ive been heavily fucking with the kedr ngl

got like 3 kills on customs earlier w it

[lusty glacier]

what shouild i sell on flea rn?

[spice widget]

bro where do yall find all that stuff

[fiery rover]

this looks like interchange tbh

[languid wind]

probably the car bateries that Fconds, the filters and propane if you dont need any of it

[fiery rover]

sell everything you don't need

[languid wind]

or customs if he runs all good spots

[lusty glacier]

i want to sell stuff thatll get cheaper later so i can upgrade hideout

[fiery rover]

car battery on customs is rare

in the long run everything gets cheaper except high barter trade items

[languid wind]

ratchet should be at least 100k or that what it was last wipe near the end

[lusty glacier]

yo kektape?
