beginners-assistance

[waxen scarab]

either way i always run the DB as single shot incase i flub the first one i still got another in the chamber as a 2nd chance

[sudden juniper]

#pvp-lfg

let me buy a db real quick to shoot inhideout and test

[waxen scarab]

and if i'm truly point blank then clicking twice aint no thang

[tough oyster]

best way to level skier is buy euros?

[waxen scarab]

imagine buying euro's

[sudden juniper]

sell guns and parts

[glacial moss]

also buy mods from him

[violet furnace]

also sell grenades

[sudden juniper]

especially if your mechanic money is already met

[violet furnace]

are gp coins worth keeping, or should i sell them?

[sudden juniper]

i use them for barters

[olive bough]

Ye keep them

[sudden juniper]

you were right and I was wrong im sorry

[ebon bramble]

so aim feet? ok

[sudden juniper]

I guess it wasnt apparent

@ebon bramble @round pollen

[ebon bramble]

oooooh ooooo

thats a tasty height

for aiming at stomach/center mass

[sudden juniper]

you dont NEED them for mentor but it helps for that level 7 sniper quest

[waxen scarab]

ha i knew it, always use it in single tap

wish you could lay down in hideout, wonder how bad it is then

[sudden juniper]

i tried shooting at range and it was so bad lol

[modern swan]

ayy, look what i got from scav case 😄

[ebon bramble]

hahahaha second factory run with that setup i died in 40 seconds....

[sudden juniper]

nice @modern swan

[olive bough]

Fancy

[violet furnace]

oooo, a flash drive for quest? man u r so lucky 😉

[modern swan]

intel, the 95k one didnt even bring enough back to be able to el for 1000 rubles

[sudden juniper]

im not even doing scav case this wipe

return on investment takes so long and it's such a gamble

[violet furnace]

its worth it now

[sudden juniper]

did they buff it

i was planning on just investing in 25 gpu bitcoin farm

that is true

[waxen scarab]

This was my first scav case run, paid a moonshine https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/214498856094793728/931357472076218398/unknown.png?width=566&height=675

[sudden juniper]

oh does scav karma affect your box

[waxen scarab]

karma was -.3

[sudden juniper]

fuck

well that motivates me to get it even less now

i have negative karma from killing santa a ton on accident

[ebon bramble]

how many santas did you murder....

"accident"...

[sudden juniper]

no they really were accdientrs 😭

[ebon bramble]

i actually believe you

[sudden juniper]

i prefire everything

[ebon bramble]

i killed him once because he ran into a room on me and i shot him in the head 😦

[sudden juniper]

it's so bad i spend more money on ammo than the loot i sell in raid

[ebon bramble]

im still negative

one of those killed me....

[sudden juniper]

wait does scav karma only affect how long the runs take

or does it affect the actual loot as well

[buoyant palm]

it heavily affects the loot you spawn in with

[dapper chasm]

More scav karma = better things on spawn

[sudden juniper]

we talking about the scav box

i dont scav run

[buoyant palm]

o

[dapper chasm]

o

[violet furnace]

dad once got into raid. His friends shot santa, santa didnt die. Some random went in, mele killed santa, took his things and dressed like him started shooting my dad, but he died. Dad was like " godi killed santa again " but it was a player. XD

[sudden juniper]

ok then i might buy it i already have moonshines and chains and a few junk boxes

yeah return on investment would take longer

i have -2 rep i think

[dapper chasm]

-13.5 😎

[bold kernel]

So I've been running offline factory on horde spawn rate at an attempt to get better at gunplay and efficiently treating and whatnot, is that an efficient way to improve? are there other options? anything helps!

[sudden juniper]

should i construct it right now

true but i need a third moonshine since i keep selling them

[bold kernel]

scav case ASAP for sure. its so much more valuable that the price you pay

[sudden juniper]

is the loot the same as before

like can i reference the videos last wipe with 100 runs of each type

[glacial moss]

even better i think

[amber torrent]

is there an easy way to quickly sell/add to flea out of the scav case?

[tough oyster]

what are these for?

i know what do irl in terms of nvgs

[sudden juniper]

all tactical dfevices like lasers but some of them are infared

they do nothing for nvg

[tough oyster]

but do they have a use in this game?

[sudden juniper]

yes

[amber torrent]

oh man IR only lasers would be awesome that show up on nvg.

[tough oyster]

why not just use the cheap ncstar laser?

[sudden juniper]

they shoot a red beam that isnt really visible but have the same affect as a laser

becuase a blue laser is highly visible

lasers affect your pointfire accuracy

[waxen scarab]

any attachment that's turned on affects pointfire

[ember schooner]

How does the weather work in-game? Trying to do this sniper born in heaven, and literally every game is that foggy I can't see 10ft in front of me let alone 100m...

Been like it for 2/3 days now

[olive bough]

Wait what

[sudden juniper]

no

[olive bough]

Why did no one tell me that

[sudden juniper]

flashlights dont do anything unless it's a combo device

[waxen scarab]

it tells you the current weather on the time selection

[sudden juniper]

weather is the same accross all maps besides labs and facotry obvoiusly

[ember schooner]

yes, and it's always foggy or pissing it down with rain...

[sudden juniper]

if you have the flashlgiht setting on for a tactical device, it gives you the pointfire accuracy boost even if the laser isn't on

for a combo deviece^

[violet furnace]

I wnet in. Some bush man killed me. I dont go there now. Bye sniping woods alone

[olive bough]

Btw I never understood what the little number in the bottom right means

[waxen scarab]

it's why you see streamers running the IR flashlight all the time, barely visible and increases acc

[waxen scarab]

zero'ing for scope page up/down to change

[olive bough]

The one that is usually 50

[bold kernel]

I've just been doing scav run, then offline, scav run, offline. and I just go to hotspots as scav and try fighting pmcs unless I spawn with something worth

[sudden juniper]

the numnber is in meters for zeroing

lol zeroing is the one thing everyone mentions if someone complains about missing shots but almost never the issue

[olive bough]

I’m dumb please explain

[amber torrent]

holy shit, i almost just entered in game with my ammo case 😱

[sudden juniper]

yeah exactly

[summer birch]

hello guys, does anyone know how to solve the struggle with "Awating Session start" freeze, been strugling few days

[solemn raptor]

I think i'd recommend using a cheap loadout (stock sks and some ammo etc.) instead of offline raids. Playing online is the way to go.

[violet furnace]

maybe change servers to automatic?

[bold kernel]

task manager tarkov end task, then press play on the client launcher

sometimes that fixes it

[bold kernel]

I'm still lvl 1 traders, so all my armor is paper. feel like I stand no chance as of right now lol

[waxen scarab]

so you know how when something is far away you have to aim above them to hit em?
Zero'ing is setting your scope to automatically "tilt" to adjust for certain ranges
So instead of aiming up to hit that guy 150 meters away, zero to 150 meters and you can aim right on him

[solemn raptor]

Who said you were going to get shot at?

[olive bough]

Ooooohhhhh alright thank you

[solemn raptor]

@bold kernel kill them before they kill you

[bold kernel]

good point honestly hahaha

[sudden juniper]

armor always helps but i would say surviving is 80% on your ability

[olive bough]

So you’re saying I should always change that settings whenever I’m sniping?

[sudden juniper]

avoid players by going around hotspots

[bold kernel]

its tough on like say interchange or woods cause people will rush your spawn pretty often

[sudden juniper]

almost all your sniper shots arent gonna need zeroing

[main brook]

what suppressor goes on the m700

[shell valve]

does anyone want to help me the first depot on the marker quest?

[waxen scarab]

you won't need to zero unless you're going for insane shots or you're hitting stationary targets at a set distance "like rooftop rogues"

[sudden juniper]

also just aim higher lol

[sudden juniper]

m700 takes mmultiple suppressors use edit preset and click around @main brook

[bold kernel]

especially if you use good ammo right? cause if you know you can make it through their armor, and you aim for the head, worst case is you one tap their thorax

[solemn raptor]

@bold kernel some.. actual, tips though:
Use the best loadout that you can afford!
If you make on avarage 100k roubles per life before you die, you can afford to run a 100k loadout. This way you can always make sure to never end a wipe with too much money, just don't be too passive. Try to profit from fights, not loose loot.

[sudden juniper]

barely any ammos will one tap thorax at range especially with the new damage drop off

[violet furnace]

if someone does barter for green bat, for some item, game look how much is that item worth to trader, then gives value for that item, and it lowers the average price. If u give offer on flea, u can see average cost, if u give more or less than that, the fee will be bigger

[bold kernel]

oh, i didnt know about that

[waxen scarab]

oh wow i didn't know scav karma affected how much fence pays for stuff, wtf

[sudden juniper]

i didnt tknow that either i thought fee was only based on how much the item sells to traders

[solemn raptor]

I wouldn't say those are very good maps for a beginner, at least not interchange. Try to stick with customs and lighthouse (avoid rogues), of course if you enjoy the other maps then go for it! Personal preference after all.

[tough oyster]

i need to spend 400k on skier

[sudden juniper]

lighthouse isnt really beginner friendly either

[tough oyster]

what should i buy from him

[sudden juniper]

tbh just learn one map super well before you move onto others

the map difficulty wont really matter then becuase youll become a pro on it

if you are really in a rush then just buy some random item and sell it back to him @tough oyster

[bold kernel]

I enjoy interchange a lot on my scav, not so much pmc. I love customs on pmc, but its very sweaty with groups and stuff, not so much on my scav tho cause theres barely any time to do much. and woods is just a bitch in general, but people dont know how to loot woods properly so I usually scav that too

[solemn raptor]

you can buy stuff and sell it back to him, that will give a 50% loss of money ish, so you only need to throw away 200k roubles. You can also buy things from the flea market and sell them for a little less to skier, a bit smarter but hard to find the correct items.

[violet furnace]

how is a lighhouse beginner firenldy? i would say customs, and after some time woods, but not woodmill

[waxen scarab]

Why do you get a bigger karma hit for killing a guard than for the actual boss?

[sudden juniper]

there shouldnt be any karma loss in my opinion it's so dumb

[main brook]

best ammo for m700?

[solemn raptor]

lighthouse is kinda like customs and woods combined I feel, at least if you stay away from the two big houses.

[sudden juniper]

the guards always shoot first at you

[sinful zealot]

it is normal when i go lighthouse water tratment to get insta hearshot? xD

[waxen scarab]

yes

[sinful zealot]

lol

[sudden juniper]

lighthouse ahs tons of landmines and the huge open road

[sinful zealot]

i did go there 4 times

[violet furnace]

when i went there, not near rouges, kind of far from hillside house, i still got atacked a lot by players, and scav players

[sinful zealot]

when i joined it i got insta headshot 4 times

[sudden juniper]

lightouse is defintiely not bneginner friendly lol

[solemn raptor]

sure, you will get attacked, but that's not the point, the point is to get better at pvp, so getting into fights is a positive I'd say.

[sudden juniper]

what

[solemn raptor]

you need to know what you're doing if you're going against rouges. It's really difficult.

[bold kernel]

PMC bodies on interchange as a scav is my go to money maker. very underrated. plus you might get a chance to catch a live pmc looting their kill

[sudden juniper]

yeah i think so

which sucks cause i use them for the jager quest

[sinful zealot]

i just sneak in and get shooted

[sudden juniper]

i havent gotten a single flashbang kill

[sinful zealot]

inside militare houses too xD

[sudden juniper]

i think they should be flea marketable at least

yeha exactly

[solemn raptor]

You learned these tips from a hunting school?

[sudden juniper]

the only craft i do is nixxor lens lol

[sinful zealot]

I need to find TNT for build stuff and some guides sais light house is a good place

do you know other good places for tnts ?

[bold kernel]

LMAO I actually chuckled there

[sudden juniper]

yes flea market lol

[sinful zealot]

i am lvl 9

ok ty

[sudden juniper]

i would alternate crafts but i never level up hideout management in time anyways plus having just one craft is easier

[sinful zealot]

i want to have less scav cooldown and shooting dummie targets

[bold kernel]

appreciate all the tips guys! glad I joined this discord for sure. shoudlve joined a lot sooner

[sinful zealot]

: D

[ebon bramble]

is the sr-25 any good? i killed a guy and he had it on him

[solemn raptor]

it's like an M1A

[ebon bramble]

ah

m80 rounds good for it?

[solemn raptor]

yeah

[sudden juniper]

m80 is very good for budget

[ebon bramble]

cool 8D

well i got it for some bp ammo to a guy's face

people scare if they dont respond in voip

[sudden juniper]

eh

[ebon bramble]

i always talk first

[sudden juniper]

i usually dont say anything in voip if im doing pvp

[ebon bramble]

its wy i have shit survival

[sudden juniper]

beucase i feel bad

[robust robin]

The scar is pretty hot sounding

[ebon bramble]

in fact i just died to a team i had the jump on because i said hi any good loot in here? XD

[sinful zealot]

what are rouges?

[sudden juniper]

full auto nerf is too much

[ebon bramble]

AI on lighthouse

[sudden juniper]

and 556 nerfs too

[sinful zealot]

I see, thx you : )

[sudden juniper]

scar with rk2 is decent

oh they buffed 9x39 today i think

[quaint onyx]

did they remove the captcha from flea?

[robust robin]

556 scar is just a slightly different mdr

[summer birch]

Just have tried it, didn't help

[tough oyster]

if rogues are not agrod, and u go into the area, do they shoot at u anyways?

[sudden juniper]

also val is sold on flea now yay

[sudden juniper]

depends what faction you are and also your previous interactions

[tough oyster]

i was spawned in a scav, joined up with some pmcs, they killed some rogues and when i went to loot ont of them i died to a rogue

[sudden juniper]

it's only pen buff

i only used it once this wipe from quest reward and lost it to getting backstabbed

it was factory and people betrayed me on voip when I was trying to help them 🙁

[frank path]

whats the VOIP button ?

[sudden juniper]

you have to first turn it on in settings krypt

[ebon bramble]

whatever you keybind it to

[frank path]

oh I see, thank you

[ebon bramble]

oh right

it does have to be turned on or you cant hear peeps

i think*

[frank path]

that makes sense

[summer birch]

Just have tried it, didn't help

[quaint onyx]

H or L?

[civic swallow]

Eyyo, for the Chemical part 4 do I want to do Skier, Therapist or Prap, and why?

[quaint onyx]

skier sheapest

cheapest

[civic swallow]

ty

[waxen scarab]

what helmet?

[violet furnace]

i would go with therapist, bc u get 7.7k xp, 170k and medcase, which is like 600k ( i think ) so i think its worth the most

that helmet is bad AF

[quaint onyx]

skiers rep will cost a million to get back

[pseudo harbor]

How to fix?

[summer birch]

didn't work... Damm, can't play the game tho

[violet furnace]

u can do quests for skier, but for other traders its only quests

early wipe. Its not that early now, and its lvl4 with lvl 3 visor, with no headset, so not worth it

[ebon bramble]

are there any sites that aggregate full gun builds? including fun ones not just meta

[waxen scarab]

i've had my life saved by the crappy heavy trooper mask lol

not sure what it was but SOMETHING ricochet'd off of it in woods

[sudden juniper]

@round pollen https://youtu.be/Gh8vZT423bk ☹️

[violet furnace]

but that item is trash, and u can buy green one from ragman lvl 2

[sudden juniper]

the black variant for 50k plus a face mask is extremely good early wipe

[violet furnace]

early wipe, its not that early wipe now, u either hear and decide to fight/ run away or go better no headset helmet

[waxen scarab]

oh yeah i never trust anybody who is constantly attempting to be point blank of me lol

[sudden juniper]

most people dont have ammo that pens class 4

especially on factory

[waxen scarab]

That helmet is good for camping

[sudden juniper]

sorry for quality yeah i was only trying to help them

[violet furnace]

ok, but ppl who go factory either take ammo that is leg meta, so it doesnt matter what u have on ur head, or they go better ammo, that penetrates lvl 4

[sudden juniper]

thats why i usually dont talk in voip at all anymore

[stark nebula]

Would anyone be up to helping me with Signal Part 1? I've never ran Shoreline

[sudden juniper]

most people arent that good @violet furnace

[violet furnace]

no, bc u dint hear that much, which is verey good for camping

[vague whale]

anyone tryna play?

[waxen scarab]

night time factory is people with pistols and smg chads, no in betweens lol

[violet furnace]

ok, but many ppl, that go factory either go leg meta or go good ammo, so maybe one out of 10-15 ppl wouldn't be like that

[sudden juniper]

i would say only 1 out of 10 people will have good ammo lol

idk what factory raids youre going into

[violet furnace]

u can buy green one

[waxen scarab]

don't know how much you run factory but it's absolutely full of rats lol

[pearl pier]

Do I have better chances of finding a graphics card in a pc or barrel cache?

[waxen scarab]

equal chance honestly going off my experience

[sudden juniper]

good question both are highly rare

[waxen scarab]

People pick the weirdest hills to die on

[sudden juniper]

borowik no other helmet right now will give you good budget head protection

[violet furnace]

run a bit, either some with shotguns and gear from scavs they killed, or chads, sometimes pistolslings, but they r not that hard to kill

[pearl pier]

Is it worth the risk going into Interchange for the gpus needed for Farming part 4

[waxen scarab]

yes

[vague whale]

anyone wanna play?

[sudden juniper]

i lost 2 altyns today on factory becuase of impact nades i wish i ran zsh instead

[pearl pier]

Why do impact nades have a fuse timer?

[violet furnace]

go buckshot? so u 2 tap on legs?

[quiet kraken]

😿😿😿😿

[sudden juniper]

hitting legs is harder than you think

especially on factory

[quaint onyx]

they can have it

[waxen scarab]

i just lay down in a high traffic area with a 153 full of magnum, get a kill almost every time

[sudden juniper]

plus most people dont have level 4 peacekeeper for the rip ammo barters yet

[violet furnace]

how much is black ZSh-1? bc green is 65k and 19k visor / 2 plexiglass

[quaint onyx]

impacts have 2 modes

[sudden juniper]

true prapor is like second easiest

if you insure with him

sorry not if you insure with him thats solely money

[pearl pier]

Wait insurance counts?

[sudden juniper]

but still prapor quests are abundant and easiest

i take that back rals

[pearl pier]

Oh

[sudden juniper]

i havent even done the therapist regain quest cause i dont need to

[waxen scarab]

impact won't explode if it hits an object too close to you, kinda like grenade launchers. If you smack a wall point blank with one it'll use a normal fuse

[sudden juniper]

yeah it's 10 m67s that's so cheap

especially since dollars are like fake money kinda

[violet furnace]

how much is black variant?

[sudden juniper]

i dont see them the same as rubles lol

it's like 50k

[bold kernel]

where can I find the menu music tracklist. this shit goes so hard

[sudden juniper]

normal is like 70k

visor is 13k from skier if im not mistaken

[waxen scarab]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xECVQV1EhMk

[quaint onyx]

geneburn on spotify

[bold kernel]

sick

[sudden juniper]

i ran it today and killed tagilla twice 🙂

[heady kindle]

You could also scav. 90 percent of the time most pc spawns haven’t been looted from my experience.

[violet furnace]

ragman lvl3 for 19k

[bold kernel]

is it all the same artist?

[quaint onyx]

yeas its nikita

[sudden juniper]

oh nvm then

[bold kernel]

whaaaat

[sudden juniper]

it's still extremely affordable and strong righ tnow

[quaint onyx]

YEES

[waxen scarab]

a game made by a single man 😄

[bold kernel]

nikita is a musician too??

[sudden juniper]

i will say it's shitty outside of factory becuase of audio

[quaint onyx]

yep

[summer birch]

is there any way to fix awaitting session start? Been struggling forr couple days, can't play the game ..

[quaint onyx]

the songs are pretty good imo

[bold kernel]

it slaps for sure

I bob my head after raids without fail, so must be good

[primal cave]

Hello I'm new in this group anyone can help me how to play decentraland

[pearl pier]

I'm pretty sure experience differs from player to player but which map and location are you talking about?

[waxen scarab]

I go through oli on interchange and loot all the pc's. Been about 6 runs and have found 1 gpu and like 5 PSU's

[pearl pier]

Wow

[sudden juniper]

lol i turned it off becuase dying and having music start playing tilts me so much

[bold kernel]

i turned the after raid music off, but not the actual menu music

[sudden juniper]

ohh yeah thats true

i like listening to my own music in the main menu tho

[violet furnace]

for me therapist is best, since i never struggle with skeir rep ( this wipe only to kill USEC for friend from the west. but i either killed BEARS, or my freind killed USEC ) and a med case is good, bc it can give u a lot of space, or moeny to but 2 ammo boxes and some other things. if u struggle with skeir rep then u go some woods as scav ( 4-5 scavs ) and u have that 1 mil to buy rep, but ok

[sudden juniper]

it's always an opinion but handing it into skier is always better for me

[heady kindle]

Interchange. I was personally just looting texho, then the shelves in oli near the registers for gas analyzers, then run to the back of oli to the left then make a right. There’s an open door with multiple pcs and then a closed door down the hallway with pc spawns. At that point you can just run out the door at the end of the corridor and out of the loading bay to Emercom checkpoint.

[pearl pier]

Thanks

[bold kernel]

interchange is honestly the best map to scav, at least in my limited experience so far. (ive only played woods, factory, customs, and interchange so)

[tough oyster]

can ppl hear u turn or nvgs on and off

[sudden juniper]

yes gator

same with visors i believe

[stable talon]

Hello, how much is the marked key for dorms valued at? Is it worth using or should i sell?

[violet furnace]

if u need money - woods. If u need weapon parts and ammo - reserve if u need barter imtes - intechange

[bold kernel]

learn the cache locations on the outside of interchange and you'll get all kinds of stuff

[heady kindle]

Nah, if you get lucky on lighthouse it’s stonks. The problem is for me 7/10 times I got there I get 1 tapped by either rogues or pmcs

[violet furnace]

about 2 mil, but u cant sell it, u have to give it for barter

[sudden juniper]

you should definitely use it

[tough oyster]

i didnt think this thru

0 ergo

[sudden juniper]

oh god wtf is that scope lo

[bold kernel]

WHAT

[violet furnace]

vulcan NV scope

[sudden juniper]

is that the vulcan

☠️

[tough oyster]

nvg scope that i got off a guy i killed

[stable talon]

hmm, so i cant sell it. Is the barter worth 2 mil then or?

[sudden juniper]

bro

dont use it

[tough oyster]

too late now

[sudden juniper]

it sells for 30k and is literally garbage lol

id rather have irons than the vulcan

[violet furnace]

it value is 2 mil. Ppl barter it for hillside house key, merin, black keycard, armbands. I would say to leave it and just go customs, as it can make u a lot of money this wipe

[tough oyster]

im just gunna extract camp since i cant see half my bloody screen

[sudden juniper]

i would say keep it especially this wipe becuase almost no one has it

so you can go to dorms late and it'll still be unlooted

versus last wipe where it's always looted after 0.5 minutes into the raid

[stable talon]

Alright,thanks man

[violet furnace]

well yes, but i went 7 times, and 4 tiems it was opened after minutes

[sudden juniper]

i swear we must be playing a completely different game

na east servers it's almost always closed

eu is just juiced lol

[violet furnace]

I play Poland, Czech, Slovakia

[heady kindle]

If you’re broke sell it. If you’ve got money then use it.

[sudden juniper]

you cant sell it

[violet furnace]

but woods bunkers, vilalge, old vilage is never looted

[stable talon]

ye, i need to hit level 15 first. Just got back into the game. They key was 25k roubles when i played

[heady kindle]

Yeah yeah I know, I wasn’t thinking

[pseudo harbor]

Anyone know how to fix?

[sudden juniper]

even if you could sell it you would probably profit more by selling your loot from the room

[violet furnace]

it happend sometimes, does this happen to u often?

[sudden juniper]

backend servers are still broken

[violet furnace]

its a high traffic area, there is loot even without it, there might be reshala, and campers, so it depend on ur skill

[tough oyster]

is there a way to check in game time in raid?

i gotta kill pmcs between 2200 and 1000

[violet furnace]

just go into raids at 6-7 AM, i thnik every minte in game is 10 sec? or smth like that

[quaint onyx]

you can see your wrist watch

[cursive whale]

should i complete the stirrup quest?

[quaint onyx]

maybe

[quaint onyx]

no if you dont want to

[cursive whale]

are there follow up quests to it?

[violet furnace]

five 500$ to therapist and get 0.2 rep

oh adn u need less than 0.6 rep

[quaint onyx]

hippocratic oath

[cursive whale]

these are my reps

[quaint onyx]

hippocratic oath is just give 500 dollars to rapist and get some rep

and it doesnt lead to anything

[pseudo harbor]

First time, but i have tried to move loot from my backpack to stash for like 30min now. But when i move stuff over it takes 2min and i get that error and all my stuff i put in stash is back in my backpack

[violet furnace]

well, try restarting game, and if that doesn't help, idk

[bold kernel]

feel like servers are doing a lot better past couple days

[cursive whale]

what are good quest for xp?

[quaint onyx]

did they seriously remove the captcha from flea market?

[cursive whale]

the item picking?

[quaint onyx]

human verification

i would rather have captcha than bots

[fast wadi]

I mean, their captcha is easy to automate

[undone badge]

how do i get my fence rep up

quick

mines so shit lol

[violet furnace]

gunsmith, all of them would guve u about 150-200k xp. and u will lose some money if u don sell BTC and other valuables

[cursive whale]

i just did postman pat

[sonic lagoon]

What is some good mp153 ammo with all level 1 traders?

[waxen scarab]

express

go for legs if pmc, face if scav

[cursive whale]

isnt 7mm better?

[waxen scarab]

uh, lemme double check

[main brook]

how do i cancel using meds?

[waxen scarab]

left click

[violet furnace]

LMB

[cursive whale]

right click?

[violet furnace]

RMB, yes

[waxen scarab]

either works

[fickle olive]

is it worth doing the task where I have to bring gpus?

[cursive whale]

how much eur is eft rn with fees?

[waxen scarab]

express is better, 9 pellets at 35 damage
instead of 7mm's 8 at 39 damage

[bitter tapir]

flechette vs rip for saiga?

[waxen scarab]

actually i take that back, 7mm VERY SLIGHTLY wins against express

[violet furnace]

35 for standards, 58 for lefft behind, 80 for prepare for escape and 110 edge fo darkness

[undone badge]

how do i get my fence rep up

[sonic lagoon]

Sounds good, thanks Rock

[undone badge]

no

[violet furnace]

extract as scav, sue Vex as PMC and scav pmc extracts

[waxen scarab]

flechette for aiming at face, rip to aim for legs

[undone badge]

sue vex as pmc?

whats that

[violet furnace]

use*

[waxen scarab]

Use vehicle extract he means, the one you pay for

[undone badge]

oh like the one in intercahnge

the 5000rouble one?

[waxen scarab]

customs, woods also have em

[violet furnace]

v-ex is vechicle extract, so u have to give moeny i thnik its 10k for u and u extract after a minute when ur close to it. gives u 0.25 rep, then 0.13 0.08

[undone badge]

so it goes down?

everytime i use it

[waxen scarab]

it remembers uses per map

[undone badge]

oh so if i use it on power styation in interchange itll be 0.25

and if i do it on another map for the first time itll be 0.25?

[waxen scarab]

yup

[steep flame]

and lighthouse

[waxen scarab]

^ right

[violet furnace]

yes, then u get 0.01, but its better than nothing, and if they do event like last time, u can get more when event is on, and after it restets think ( so u get 0.25 again )

[undone badge]

ohh okok

thjanks

[waxen scarab]

I've heard the rep you get goes back up to .25 over time if you don't use it but can't confirm

[violet furnace]

but i don't know about after evenmt

[violet furnace]

i dont think so. Used vex last wipe at the beggining, and at the end gave me less.

[sonic lagoon]

On farming part 1 with mechanic, can I take in 1 toolset at a time or do I have to do both in 1 raid?

[waxen scarab]

you can do 1 at a time

[sonic lagoon]

nice

[waxen scarab]

you can even die after doing it

[civic swallow]

Bro what is it with this game sometimes having these cracked ass scavs that hit every shot from a mile away? I had an ump and these two scavs at new gas were pegging me left and right on train tracks, every time I tried to ADS to shoot one they shot me over and over again so I couldn't aim at them, and when I finally said fuck it I'll push them I get insta head eyesed, and they were 600% NPC scavs.

I don't get it. lol

[waxen scarab]

scavs got buffed hard, they're fuckin cracked now. Especially sniper ones

Reminds me of arma's dayz mod ai

[bold kernel]

only customs sniper, all the other scav snipers on other maps are as blind as they were

[civic swallow]

Sniper scavs have always been a pain in the ass but I've never had troubles with regular scavs like that, it was insane. I felt like I was fighting two PMCs ._.

[waxen scarab]

tell that to the psycho at the shoreline hydro plant who aggro'd on me from 180 meters away because i aimed at him

[cursive whale]

they miss like the first 5 and then just headshot you

so annoying

[bold kernel]

no idea about hydroplant but i killed the ones on the rock on north with a pistol lol

[tough oyster]

where do i find strike cigs

[bold kernel]

duffle bags food supply crates

[tough oyster]

this whole wipe i have only found 2

[civic swallow]

run customs, they are everywhere.

[cursive whale]

i have same problem but with wilson

[tough oyster]

is there a specific spot to look?

[wet solar]

ive been running interchange and i know the map pretty well, but im only getting about 150k loot usually, i check the normal gpu/btc spawns and they never ever ever spawn

[bold kernel]

i see them almost everytime in food supply crates

[waxen scarab]

Run all the jackets in shoreline on the west side village, spawn all kinds of ciggies there

[civic swallow]

No. File cabs, duffle bags. I feel like I find a ton of that shit over at big red.

[cursive whale]

maybe just wasnt taking them

[tough oyster]

u can craft those

[cursive whale]

where?

[waxen scarab]

food station

lvl 2 i think

[cursive whale]

thanks

[violet furnace]

eitehr go customs and search every supply crate and jacket, or go reserve into basement, there r few crates and extract as a scav

[cursive whale]

any tips to do jaeger tasks?

[waxen scarab]

which task

[cursive whale]

i have to get 0.2 rep

havent done any

[violet furnace]

waht tasks u have?

[cursive whale]

except the first one

survivalist path thrifty

[waxen scarab]

what lvl are you

[cursive whale]

19

[waxen scarab]

just buy a iskra / water and throw in secure pouch and plant em at extract

having issues finding the bunkers?

[cursive whale]

ill use the map

[wet solar]

is lighthouse the best map for loot?

without keys

[waxen scarab]

aint gotta be found in raid food, can just be bought off flea

[waxen scarab]

depends how good/lucky you are. Also, usec or bear?

[bold kernel]

@everyone Gifts for the new year, nitro for 3 months: https://steamcommunites.com/yourboosts

[violet furnace]

i would say woods w/o keys, since its less risky, but if u know how to go on lighthouse and not die, its the best

[cursive whale]

its the 0.6l water right?

[waxen scarab]

Emercom and usec camp on woods are where a majority of my funds come from

[waxen scarab]

yep, just basic water bottle. Doesn't even have to be full

[cursive whale]

drinking air lmao

[waxen scarab]

here's your water trash

[wet solar]

usec

[wet solar]

woods? what spots?

[waxen scarab]

that'll make it slightly easier at least

[wet solar]

why, are you suggesting water treatment?

[violet furnace]

i can show u on offline if u want. I wont speak, just shoto where it can spawn and show u if u have time now

or i can send creens shots, but it will take more time

[cursive whale]

should i do the h2o2 barter?

[violet furnace]

or on map, i forgor it exsist

[waxen scarab]

not neccesarily, they'll just aggro from insane distance as a bear

[waxen scarab]

depends on whichever is cheaper

[cursive whale]

my flea broke

it doesnt show anything

[waxen scarab]

at the top, is there an item filter?

or go to therapist and right click, filter by item on the water

[wet solar]

its ok, i dont wanna spend your time, there are some good youtube vids on it

but are you talking about abandoned village mainly?

[wet solar]

can you possibly show me lighthouse?

[cursive whale]

ah yes h2o2

[waxen scarab]

da fuk lol

[magic niche]

howw do i switch to take?

[cursive whale]

why is my rep or whatever it is dropping?

[cursive whale]

scroll wheel

[magic niche]

not working

[solemn raptor]

you need to throw your own backpack on the ground first

[cursive whale]

u have a backpack on?

[magic niche]

oh im stupid af, and now i died

ty

[cursive whale]

yikes

[violet furnace]

i dont play it, sorry

[magic niche]

ty anyway

fml

[solemn raptor]

I don't recommend dying. Bad for your... health

[waxen scarab]

you been cancelling trades or trades haven't been bought

[magic niche]

ill keep that in mind

3 kills in 10 sec with a pm pistol, nothing else xD

[violet furnace]

@wet solar here u go

[cursive whale]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/woods or this

[tough oyster]

thats like 1.2mil in rewards

[waxen scarab]

better get goin

man all my weeklies have sucked so far

no

[lavish tinsel]

that's so easy

[waxen scarab]

hahaha

a lesson we all have to learn

it'll still craft at 10% speed with generator off btw

[lavish tinsel]

If you leave ur fuel running you gain hideout experience.

[waxen scarab]

[lavish tinsel]

Anyone know how to gain fast sniper xp? Reloading?

[ornate steppe]

leg scavs you lvl up by amount of hits not headshots and yes reloading

[waxen scarab]

finish SBIH

[bold kernel]

Still problems with login?

[violet furnace]

in old village ( here ) loot tool box, go ammo house ( there can be good ammo, fuel and some valuables ) then go marked area, moonshine house, ( the one on the right ) and there can be gold chain on a shelf near beds. WHen going to vex village, tkae 2 ground barrels, then go into brick house, loot shed ( 2 tables and one wooden chest ), into house ( in kichen near tove and on a table ), then go to closked room ( doors are closed, just open them, no key needed ), search duffle, cardboard box, table and under the bed, then go to green house, look in shed, toolbox, hand drill on shelvs, then into house. In kitchen look in bowl and near stove, go to the next room. there can be loose ammo boxes ( little ones with ammo ), duffle and loose loot, then jump over the bed, loot duffle, grenade box and u r good to extract. I would recomment taking at least a 5x6 back pack, the bigger the better, since u can find so much loot there, or a 5x6 and a belt combo rig. If u go solo, u can get aobut 600+k and some suger. Ohhh, and in bunkers, go down and take flashlight, and look very carefully under the mattres in corner, bc there can be bitcoin, and under the bed next to "scav bunker" extract, cb there can be btc or other valuables also. Gl, and have fun @wet solar

[bold kernel]

And there is queus of 17k ?

Still? This is really ridiculous

[lavish tinsel]

It's very aids

[olive bough]

Where do you get those maps? The look so weird compared to map genie

[waxen scarab]

you got the worst ones out of the way at least

[lavish tinsel]

Customs is by far the hardest

[waxen scarab]

Really? Had no issue doing mine

[violet furnace]

what map? i go on wiki, click map i want, then "see full image" and there u go9.5kx 6.8k pixel map

[olive bough]

Damn I hate the maps from the wiki

[lavish tinsel]

hmm, I got all 3 of my shoreline kills in 2 raids. I also got a screenshot of a 99m headshot

[waxen scarab]

hide by ruaf checkpoint and snipe people in the big red offices for ezpz sbih

[olive bough]

High concentration ok KEKWs here

[waxen scarab]

I've gotten ALOT of hatemail from doing this btw

[olive bough]

I’ve got a nice M700 I’m gonna try that now

Thanks

[waxen scarab]

good luck, walk up the lamp by the bus stop and lay on top, not a bad spot. Especially at night

[waxen scarab]

oh that hurts my soul

[olive bough]

99 meters

[lavish tinsel]

[waxen scarab]

got a 180 meter kill

[olive bough]

Sorry for you

[waxen scarab]

IN THE THORAX 😩

[lavish tinsel]

My longest kill was 370 on reserve

[waxen scarab]

Gawd dam

[modern atlas]

hi i just bought this game and i wanna learn how to play

[lavish tinsel]

From dome to train station.

[waxen scarab]

queue into a raid and be ready for rage

[olive bough]

I think my stats say I got a kill from 475 meters once? Probably bled out kekw

[waxen scarab]

how tf lol

[lavish tinsel]

I hit someone from 500 in the legs with a woodo.

On woods.

[wet solar]

ty ❤️ ill take a good look at it

[olive bough]

L ö n g š h õ t

[waxen scarab]

where from?

[lavish tinsel]

I can't wait for this to be constructed

[lavish tinsel]

Sniper rock to the beach next to outskirts.

[waxen scarab]

green bats make me wanna off myself

[waxen scarab]

what a shot

[lavish tinsel]

i bought all 5 at 500k each

[waxen scarab]

OH YEAH i forgot they added a craft

[lavish tinsel]

also bought manuals, 300k each

for library

[waxen scarab]

i'll be getting my booze machine up either tomorrow or next day

[lavish tinsel]

and i also bought 2 m tubes , hella pain when it comes to hideout

[waxen scarab]

oh man i got lucky with that

😏

[lavish tinsel]

was that when smtc was 1m+?

[violet furnace]

vulcan-5 visor?

[waxen scarab]

was yesterday

[bold kernel]

mcx any good?

[lavish tinsel]

Oh ok.

[waxen scarab]

yep

[bold kernel]

sweet, caches on interchange are nice

[waxen scarab]

I've had the best luck running stashes on customs

black coyote helmets and p90's all over for some reason

[lavish tinsel]

This is probably my best one

[open wraith]

Mcx goes brrr extremely fast. Not phenomenal performance at range, but hot damn will it shred indoors or close up

[waxen scarab]

niiiice that was my first drop, built it yesterday before work

[bold kernel]

oh wow, thats unusual for a 762

[lavish tinsel]

I have spent more then 2-3m on the scav case so. Not in profit

[wet solar]

very very high recoil

[waxen scarab]

i somehow managed to just collect all the stuff needed through scavs

[bold kernel]

stock ergo is 63 wow

[lavish tinsel]

I had like 6-7 lions from running labs

[strong barn]

--I managed to get tier 3 mastery with it last wipe, the .300 blackout
it slaps
they added a new part so you can put an advanced tube on it so you can get recoil down to 46 vert and 150 horizontal afaik which is very reasonable

also 500 rnds for 45k for bcp fmj is hilariously effective @bold kernel

[lavish tinsel]

saved 2 for the ragman quest and the rest i just made a scav case out of

[waxen scarab]

is the mcx the .300 smg?

[lavish tinsel]

yes

[wet solar]

yes

[bold kernel]

shit nice. not sure what that means yet though, just got this game a week ago haha

[waxen scarab]

ok, i get it and the... something mixed up alot

[obsidian axle]

if you want effectiveness I'd say vector is your best bet

[wet solar]

ump is meta rn

and its very cheap

[bold kernel]

its 762x35 no?

[waxen scarab]

.45

[obsidian axle]

yeah still will lose against vector any time

[remote kettle]

762? What gun are you on?

[bold kernel]

i mean the mcx

[remote kettle]

Its .300 blk

[wet solar]

i personally dont like the ump so i dont know

[lavish tinsel]

akm is meta af, if you find a mutant (mk47) i can show u a good build. Decently expensive though

[wet solar]

mutant is very expensive

[lavish tinsel]

I love the mutant

[waxen scarab]

mutant is insane

[wet solar]

the op sks is still really good with bp ammo, or the rfb

[obsidian axle]

I love ump, but vector has low recoil aswell and same ammo + double the fire rate

[lavish tinsel]

The rfb is pretty good. Shoots 762x51

[waxen scarab]

sv-98 with snb is baby

[obsidian axle]

honestly any dmr is meta rn lol

[bold kernel]

oh wow. I got a couple umps and I have a vector. mercced a dude in dorms on my scav and he had the vector fully decked and an mk17 decked

[wet solar]

it eats thru ammo fast, and its like double the price

but yes in cqb its better

[earnest seal]

is strandhogg at 31 durability worth using?

[wet solar]

no

[waxen scarab]

biggest issue with vector is the mags are crazy

[remote kettle]

Whats the Max dura of strandhogg?

[earnest seal]

40

[waxen scarab]

is it repaired?

[strong barn]

45

[earnest seal]

ye

[obsidian axle]

huh? the silencer price is the same and vector itself is 45k

[wet solar]

might have gone down in price last i checked, but i was pretty sure the vector built was a bit more expensive

i might try the vector again

[waxen scarab]

i'd say not really imo

[wet solar]

also the ump increased in price because its very popular now

[bold kernel]

been messing with the vector offline cause its my favorite gun irl and it do go brrr

[obsidian axle]

idk, I just put a silencer, foregrip and scope on

[lavish tinsel]

These are my go2 if i would suggest something. It's personal preference though. (yes i know i can get the ak lower recoil 😄 )

[karmic breach]

is RPK any good?

[obsidian axle]

but I mostly run shotguns tbh

[remote kettle]

Yes

[obsidian axle]

they're absurdly broken

[waxen scarab]

I slap a pso scope on a ak-103 and call it good

[obsidian axle]

UMP is overpriced for what you get

[karmic breach]

why tho? What makes it better than say, AK-74N?

[bold kernel]

vpo is very nice too with a scope and silencer and all the doodads

[remote kettle]

Better starting recoil

[waxen scarab]

rpk is really good recoil wise

[lavish tinsel]

I would suggest this, excluding the grip (different grip this one is like 50k) and scope is like 200$.

[earnest seal]

whats the best item to buy on the flea to resell to jaeger to get his money spent higher?

[lavish tinsel]

Slap a CSS and a RDC-4C on that bad boy

[obsidian axle]

just buy vpo snipers from jaeger and sell it back to him

[remote kettle]

Antique axes, jaeger buys them for 57k

[neat vault]

Could anyone help me find the USDC camp quest? I find the locations but its hard to evac (i am AUS servers)

[remote kettle]

Can usually get them for <60k

[waxen scarab]

not meming i throw a bastion with a specter scope
B-10 hanguard with a RK-4
pso silencer
blue laser

Cheap, easy, win most fights with it

[obsidian axle]

jaeger gives you 30k for them now

[karmic breach]

I can't bring myself to use scopes on the handguards ngl

[obsidian axle]

just sayin

[karmic breach]

it's so worth it to get a bastion instead

[waxen scarab]

especially since it's like what, 2k

[lavish tinsel]

You could switch out the CSS for a AK-100 and add a bastion.

[karmic breach]

can I slap on an AK stock on the RPK, I got this really good CQR AK hmm

[waxen scarab]

I don't really build my own guns, like ever tbh. I just use whatever i have, maybe throw on a sight here and there

[lavish tinsel]

What's the pso silencer? what muzzle mount?

[remote kettle]

Bruh

[waxen scarab]

oh not pso https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/PBS-1_7.62x39_sound_suppressor

[obsidian axle]

as I said, buy vpo snipers and sell them back to him, you get money up faster cuz you get money for buying & selling

and only lose 35% money per sniper

[lavish tinsel]

I was about to say

[waxen scarab]

i rmember shapes not names

[ornate brook]

Hey could anyone please tell me the default key bind to swap from on scope to another on a gun?

[waxen scarab]

ctrl + right click

[ornate brook]

Thanks

[bold kernel]

how is the usp.45? looked it up and its a new pistol.

[waxen scarab]

it's a pistol

[odd token]

I had heard someone lost their contents of their junkbox even though they had an extra empy one while crafting the scav case for my hideout

[remote kettle]

Should go straight on

[odd token]

will i loose all my stuff if i try

[waxen scarab]

i accidentally called it a pso silencer lol

[odd token]

can anyone else confirm it?

[obsidian axle]

Pistols are broken if you can aim

[bold kernel]

yea, but it takes .45 so i was wondering if you can deck it out and make it worth using say on a sniper class

[lavish tinsel]

I was checking every muzzle break

[obsidian axle]

not worth using over 57

[bold kernel]

oh yea, forgot about that one

[waxen scarab]

only difference between that and my go to is the sight, i like the https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/ELCAN_SpecterDR_1x/4x_Scope

ghetto dmr time

[bold kernel]

i hope i find another 5.7, didnt get to exfil with the one ive found so far. got camped at extract 😦

[obsidian axle]

dont have flea market yet?

[waxen scarab]

pretty cheap from peacekeeper

[bold kernel]

nah, im very new

[obsidian axle]

ahh

[bold kernel]

level 11 almost

wait, just hit 11 actually

[obsidian axle]

its not worth using until peacekeeper 3 tho

[remote kettle]

Its quest locked

[obsidian axle]

cuz then you get good ammo

just buy it on flea for 25k roubles

[bold kernel]

pistol ammo that pierces?

[obsidian axle]

Yeah the best one has 39(?) pen

[waxen scarab]

I got lucky and killed a chad with a p90 with 4 mags of ss190 in it. Just been using that for my 5-7 runs

[obsidian axle]

although I'd take 193

[bold kernel]

shoot damn

[remote kettle]

Ss190 to buy from pk3

[bold kernel]

got 35 rounds of .300blackout ap same run i got the mcx.. hmmm

[obsidian axle]

keep them until you can buy 300 ap rounds from traders i guess if you really want to run it

[remote kettle]

It can work sortof with m62. M62 is almost the same as 56a1

But .300 blk instead of 5.56

[obsidian axle]

oh sweet they made more bullets in stock for the bmg slugs

nothing better than 2 hitting someone on thorax with shotgun

[remote kettle]

1 hitting someone in the thorax

cough cough ap-20

[obsidian axle]

doesnt work anymore with t4s sadly

ap-20 doesnt pen t4 anymore

it has chance to, just like bmg slugs

[remote kettle]

Ap has about 50%chance to pen first shell

[magic niche]

can someone help me with this quest?
never played on reserve

[obsidian axle]

yeah, not worth using imo for 50% chance, most likely you need 2 shots just like bmg slugs

difference is you pay half the price

less than that actually

and I dont have jaeger 4

[bold kernel]

lol almost same here. I hate reserve

[remote kettle]

The bmgs do not pen t4 in 2 rounds. No way with 26 pen

[obsidian axle]

havent finished that quest too, hmu if someone wants to help you

[obsidian axle]

ofc they do, I did that plenty of times

[bold kernel]

what was that bunker mission anyway?

[remote kettle]

You sure you arent 2tapping stomach?

[obsidian axle]

maybe, my aim sucks 😄

[remote kettle]

Cause 2 stomach shots or 3 leg shots drops people

[thorn heron]

anyone wanna play im new so just wanna learn

[obsidian axle]

ofc I will run ap 20s when I have jaeger 4

but rn they do a good job

or just run flechette cuz theyre stupid broken

FINALLY MADE IT TO +REP

[remote kettle]

I may or may not have 400 flechette sitting in my ammo box 😅

Its so cheap

[obsidian axle]

yeah saiga + flechette on factory slays

[remote kettle]

Or just 153

[obsidian axle]

yeah

3 shots to go threw tier 5

lol

[bold kernel]

my stash is beyond full. my guns and mags are falling out. anyone from US wanna play? im down for a chill game where we die

but if i survive again idk where ima push all this in to

why are scav players so dumb and greedy on interchange? had to put this kid down cause he actually tried extract camping player scavs... guess he didnt think i'd have a sv with ps320 LMAO

[bold kernel]

can’t be greedier than in factory

do player scavs kill other scavs in that too?

[bold kernel]

oh yes but mostly by accidey

accident

ohh, yea in interchange, its common to run into scav players just killing every player they .

or they’re just massacring 3rd floor everyone like a traitor

see for loot

ima go looking for game page

[flat peak]

whats a good pistol to do the kill 3 pmc's with a pistol task

[glacial moss]

glock, beretta, tt

[flat peak]

thanks

[bold kernel]

uhhh good luck lmao

[flat peak]

i have 1 already and imma just go into factory

[bold kernel]

I like the glock a lot. get the decked one for 3 cowboy hats if you can

[digital sable]

Basically any pistol that can shoot some Pst Gzh and has a big mag (~12+) is good enough for me if all you’ve got is level 1 traders.

[autumn glade]

Can I get any good ammo for SR-25 with low level traders?

[obsidian axle]

thats how I get my scav karma up, go in factory and straight up extract

[static nebula]

go into factory loot 2 - 4 boxes extract

[obsidian axle]

I just insta extract

[quaint onyx]

dont even have to loot

when i was grinding i didnt even look in my inventory

[edgy plover]

M80 is pretty early on, PK LL2, and quite cheap. Nothing good before that though

[quaint onyx]

less disappointment if i got ganked at the extract

[autumn glade]

yeah I have that, thanks

[static nebula]

If you have pk ll2 you can get beta too 🙂

[open apex]

why are tech manuals so expensive

[static nebula]

tech manual is quality loot, I guess library

not sure

[open apex]

the fee is so much whats even the point of selling it

[drifting bison]

barter it for other hideout items u need

[static nebula]

you dont have to sell it for roubles

[edgy plover]

Library needs 5 manuals, which is why the price has shot up. Barter it for sure, or just sell it for like 100k so the fee is reasonable

[static nebula]

Just killed 2 on spawn customs 😮

[proven wave]

[violet furnace]

[violet furnace]

[robust robin]

Fucking evasion armband omg

[robust robin]

You get it from running so just do that in raid

You get strengh from being overwight in raid

[violet furnace]

[robust robin]

And the coloured

[quaint onyx]

[unique steeple]

Why would u want that

[robust robin]

Probably wouldnt be used

[quaint onyx]

chads would want it

[vagrant cargo]

blind your enemies with your balls

[quaint onyx]

or it could be like a timmy armband

you would know its a timmy

[vagrant cargo]

no one in their right mind would use it

[quaint onyx]

i am just brainstorming

[bold kernel]

when they will improve there anti cheat

this game unplayable

[opal cave]

so do all glasses have that weird glow-in-the-dark bug?

cuz after a few unlucky flashbangs im starting to wonder if they are worth using for the protection lol

[robust robin]

I think its just the tglasses

[bold kernel]

[unique steeple]

S= folding stock

[bleak gyro]

cool thanks 😄

[unique steeple]

[bleak gyro]

thank you!

[unique steeple]

Although I wouldn’t recommend 545

[whole thistle]

5.45 is sigma caliber

[unique steeple]

🤨

[whole thistle]

Feels like I'm throwing pebbles at my enemy rather than shooting them

[unique steeple]

Indeed I see what u mean

U got a point

[deep palm]

hello i have a question do you need to extract at one of the listed extractions or can you extract at any point?

[robust robin]

You need to use the ones shown in the top right

[deep palm]

ok thank you

[rugged gulch]

@deep palm the question mark ones arent open all the time though

[deep palm]

@rugged gulch wdym

[waxen scarab]

[robust robin]

#pvp-lfg

[bleak gyro]

[unique steeple]

good for u then

[bleak gyro]

even tho still using shitty ammo xD

[cursive whale]

whats the difference between akms and akmsn?

[robust robin]

N means it has a dovetail mount

[wet solar]

Every time I get to queue up as scav it kicks me back to main menu

Tried like 4 times in a row now

[deft dew]

Are players on Woods using some secret technique to see/hear me before I can notice them while making sure not to run when I don't have to and looking around constantly? Please don't say it's experience

[robust robin]

Either their skills are higher or they have a better pair of comtacs

[wet solar]

i noticed when i started, i looked behind me too much. focus more on whats in front of you, and directly in front of you, since its easy to shoot someone whose running to/from you in a straight line, compared to running across your screen. also perception and sneak skills make a big difference, as well as in game and irl headphones

also new players tend to sneak too much, and dont ever stand still when you are in an open field

even crouch slow walking makes noise

if youve been heard, noise matters much less, and angles matter much more

[vast sentinel]

So I was told to basically sell all the gear that I find since I am low level. I wanted to ask, When should I stop doing this? I love to try new guns and put attachements on the, and I am kinda tired of running the same osks build over and over. When do I know I am ready to use the bigger guns?

[wet solar]

run across open fields, walk when you are more likely to hear before seeing your enemy

run when you are more likely to see your enemy before you hear them

[wet solar]

you should really sell most of the stuff you get, and buy weapons that you can afford and have high enough rep to use. the game is very limiting in that sense. everything is level/trader gated.

[severe girder]

got the same thing

[vast sentinel]

So I will be able to buy the higher tier guns from traders later down the road?

[wet solar]

yes, as well as upgrades and ammo. ammo is the most important thing, followed closely by gun recoil, and then fire rate. all really important and balancing is a mix of those 3 primarily

the ammo and recoil on the gun will determine what guns you will use

[vast sentinel]

yesterday I killed 2 guys with fully kitted Scars. Sold both for 200k. Makes me think. Whats the point of having those guns if someone with tier 2 armor and an sks can easilly kill you? I mean I guess they were just really bad at the game or something, because I only got hit like once.

[wet solar]

they must have had bad armor, or you shot off their limbs/head

also 762 ps is really good early levels

[vast sentinel]

yeah it just makes me feel like theres no point in investing in to the better gear because clearly it didnt give them an advantage

[ornate owl]

they’re just bad

good gear doesn’t save bad players

[wet solar]

gear doesnt prevent your limbs from getting shot off, and face shields are really expensive and gated to high trader levels.

most people dont have face shields rn

[vast sentinel]

they were insane bullet sponges tho thats true. I put like 40 rounds in to each of them before they died

[wet solar]

what levels were they?

[vast sentinel]

oof I dont remember

I think I have their tags somewhere let me see once I get out of my run

[deft dew]

I've played other FPS games and I know, thanks, could be the headphones because two raids in a row I've been shot at by players who were either lucky to be looking my direction, or had very good hearing and spotting skills. It makes going Woods a royal pain as a PMC

[ornate owl]

woods is difficult for beginners, but if you play it right it’s easy to drop pmcs

[main saffron]

woods is very difficult

I have yet to successfully get to jeagar's spot and extract without something killing me

[ornate owl]

yeah just keep going in with a pistol to protect yourself from scavs, you’ll get it eventually

[wet solar]

woods can be disorientating yes

[vagrant cargo]

its honestly the best map ever, just focus on specific landmarks that tell u where u are

[severe girder]

i can confirm. i've got 50h playtime, i've learned all the landmarks and I'm really enjoying woods rn

[ornate owl]

yeah i love woods

[deft dew]

I know the map inside out, please, I run stashes there as a scav all the time
it's just the spotting and PvP that's difficult

[whole thistle]

I did it like 5 minutes after wipe and nobody was in my server lol

[vagrant cargo]

its prolly the map with the swaggest loot

[vagrant cargo]

pvp is easy to avoid though

[ornate owl]

not necessarily

[severe girder]

what places would you recommend?

[vagrant cargo]

in woods ? sunken village n stashes is all

avoid pvp and become rich

[severe girder]

cool, that's what i was thinking

[spark bough]

does anyone have dorm marked room key

[ornate owl]

no

it doesn’t exist

[deft dew]

Ran Woods two times today because I have a daily to extract there, first run spawned at old sawmill and went to scav town to loot and snipe some scavs hoping nobody would come, but a player started shooting at me with an AK/smg, I took my chances with my Vepr Hunter and rotated a lot trying to spot him, heard him kill the scavs in town and rotated all the way back to where he shot at me from before. He must've dropped his backpack there or I must've been poorly hidden because he showed up and sprayed me. Second raid I spawned sunken village, went to loot, noticed opened bags so was careful to listen, got shot at, ran through trees to the other side of the lake, tried to spot from there, got found by a duo and almost died but ran

[brittle canyon]

hunter is bad this wipe

just run rfb

[vast sentinel]

level 41

[deft dew]

I'm not running expensive guns on Woods when I can't even see players before they start shooting

[vast sentinel]

I am 11 atm

[autumn glade]

which way peeking reveals less of ur body, left or right?

[whole thistle]

Right

Your gun is on your right side so you need to peek less to shoot

[ornate owl]

run an opsks with pso

[deft dew]

I think I'm gonna do quests on dead servers, worked yesterday

[vagrant cargo]

yeah keep running thats good its easy to run on woods

2 on 1 and u aint seen em aint good odds its better to leave

[deft dew]

don't like it on woods without a silencer that I can't buy yet and I haven't seen it on flea yet

[vagrant cargo]

ALSO which servers even r empty

im in so much danger everytime

[unique steeple]

none anymore

[vagrant cargo]

sad!

[deft dew]

play in a timezone where it's 3-5 AM and you get <160 ping, emptier raids

[unique steeple]

after 12.12 games wont start til it has enough number of players sure theyll be emptier but not as empty as before

[vagrant cargo]

i could use emptier raids since yknow i keep getting kILED

[deft dew]

more of an issue was one had a powerful rifle, the other an smg

[vagrant cargo]

i mean still ur supposed to be mindfucker in 1v2 not other way around

[cursive whale]

u cant sell slicks on flea?

[whole thistle]

No

[deft dew]

when I have a bolt-action or something like a vepr, I always run if they're too close, you can't win with those guns up close unless you get a lucky face tap

[whole thistle]

Except if it's a mosin

Lps gzh is a head seeking missile and nothing can stop it

[deft dew]

Would it be better to invest in a silenced mosin instead of a vepr? Is the ammo more powerful? More than M80?

[wet solar]

is your right side peek also faster?

[whole thistle]

Yes but if you're wide peeking it's not a big difference

Only if you're on a corner

[wet solar]

ok

[shrewd fog]

Where are you guys finding poxeram lately? I have a weekly running out of time and cant find any

[wet solar]

staches, toolbaxes, sportsbags

crates

anywhere really

[proven wave]

i need help on what to keep or sell

[deft dew]

Also someone here told me a couple days ago that raiders shoot scav players on sight but they haven't been aggroing on me on Reserve near the train station for some reason

[whole thistle]

They're like rogues, they're supposed to kos but they don't always

[proven wave]

the trick is just dont go from main gate

if u go thrue main gate theres a big probibility of u getting sot bc u wer near the MG

[chilly light]

how are you supposed to play the game when you don't have access to flee market? I keep getting two shotted by top tier ammo while I only have a shitty sks

you basically have to suffer until you're 15?

[violet furnace]

well, thats why u wana join the game when there is wipe, or find some friends that wiell help u

[proven wave]

@deft dew this gate is way safer to come in from

but when u go in allways remember theres a mine feald on ure left

till the road to the helli

[undone blade]

You'll want to play safer, and not engage every player you come across. Hopefully you are being careful enough to spot them first. I've started late wipe a couple times and you just have to know when to engage and when to let the geared players pass by.

[proven wave]

lisen to Cmndokiller advice and allso do weekly or dayly quest they give u decent amount of XP (usuaky 1K + for dayly) and some quest give u good rewards that u can sell and allso examen everything when u get a new lcl in a trader

will give u a bit of XP

and allso u need a total of 180K XP to get lvl 15

[silent chasm]

any1 wanna help me with "Delivery from the past" Prapor quest

[chilly light]

Most of the time I'm getting shot by silenced weapon from far away

I'm mainly playing on woods/custom tho

[proven wave]

ah

[chilly light]

I'm lvl 14, I'm trying to do my quest but I'm getting cockblock by the keys

so I'm basically stuck

[proven wave]

scav runs migh do the trick

[chilly light]

on which map? I feel like there is tons of loot of woods but it's just too long

[proven wave]

if u go to ligh house and loot 2 roughs that was not looted (withought dying) u can get up words of 1K XP

[bitter tapir]

your scav exp doesnt transfer to your pmc tho?

[spark bough]

anyone has dorm marked room key

[proven wave]

well i got lied to

if u go as pmc to lighthouse try to avoid the main road

[bold kernel]

how to change 6x scoop to 3 or 4 x

[proven wave]

what scope are using

[spark bough]

anyone has dorm marked room key

[proven wave]

nope
