So during the 1 week holiday what sale is it?

[teal patrol]

[cobalt sluice]

10% or something?

[gusty dagger]

wasn't too hard to tell me

[teal patrol]

bro i literally looked it up

LMFAO

[teal patrol]

its too hard to use google tho like i said

[gusty dagger]

indeed

[cobalt sluice]

What % discount is over this 1 week holiday?

[nocturne junco]

do filing cabinets even still spawn flash drives

[cobalt sluice]

yes they do

[nocturne junco]

i've ran reserve queen cabinets and safes all day today and only got 2 from the safes so far

[teal patrol]

idk id just run customs safes

[fair trench]

are ap-20 just bis for shotguns?

[round mason]

started 45 min ago at 1.2m rubles

not bad

[fair trench]

is there a good like budget ar build?

Something i could potentially put like the 2x on

[bold kernel]

Lol punisher 1-6 today?

[serene reef]

what level are you?

[fair trench]

23

[serene reef]

keltec rfb with pk2 was it? for m80 is pog

or ap-m 366 ak

singlefire is meta nowadays

[mighty void]

What if glukhar and his guards see raider?? Will he shoot them?

[serene reef]

I dont think they would, no

but beats me

[vagrant cargo]

YES

underrated !

I never ran into a vpo209

Underrated af

[south harness]

ap .366tkm is purchasable on flea

you should be running this gun

it is very good

[dusty tendon]

ak series is any ak right ?

[south harness]

sorta yes

most of them

[meager shore]

I'm trying to buy the troy qars 4.2 rail but I can't because people are selling it for 60k when it's 4k at max level mechanic

is there anyway around this

[teal patrol]

nope

[south harness]

no

[teal patrol]

i love finding them in raid, people buy that shit so fast

[serene reef]

76239 and 366TKM aks are amazing

also if you have too much nato 545

you can run the 101? was it

545x56 ak

AK 54539 isnt bad dont get me wrong

but it lacks PEN and DMG

big rounds are much better

[dusty tendon]

just trying to do the fence quest aha

[serene reef]

fence quest?

[dusty tendon]

kill 7 pmcs with ak series

[serene reef]

what level are you?

[cobalt sluice]

Right

Is it worth to get EOD / The version under EOD?

Its my first wipe and im enjoying the game

[serene reef]

i mean its just quality of life stuff

you dont NEED it

but it will be easier with it

[solar salmon]

it's a quest you get from Fence if your rep is low enough

[meager shore]

honestly for the price totally not worth it

[cobalt sluice]

But the no refund is scaring me

[serene reef]

especially stash size

[serene reef]

+1

if youre GB/USA easy ig?

[cobalt sluice]

Im buying it a tier higher every 2 weeks and GB

[serene reef]

if you're in a country like Poland or Rumunia etc

its trash

[cobalt sluice]

Oh yeah I see ehy

Why*

[meager shore]

i have the prepare for escape edition and i'm waiting for a sale in the future to upgrade

[cobalt sluice]

Im going to buy the one under EOD

[meager shore]

that's the one I have and it's enough for me

[cobalt sluice]

Gotta get that stash and pouch

[cobalt sluice]

Its a 3x2 right?

[meager shore]

yep

[cobalt sluice]

The ouch

[meager shore]

the eod edition is $180 canadian

such a rip off tbh

[cobalt sluice]

I just slowly upgrade

[meager shore]

thats what i did ye

[cobalt sluice]

The game has so many fucking bugs

[serene reef]

well

[meager shore]

every paycheck i would buy a new one

[cobalt sluice]

Like auto flea market select

[serene reef]

anything is worth if you commit enough towards the game

if you play 200h a wipe

it aint worth in hell

[cobalt sluice]

Wanted to sell aquamari but sold military power filter instead for 18500

Thanks tarkov

[serene reef]

if you play 2k hours a wipe

etc

obv its super good

its like clothes

[cobalt sluice]

I got 150hrs in this first month

[serene reef]

you buy smthn expensive

[cobalt sluice]

Enjoying it so far

[tough oyster]

i need to kill 52 scavs on reserves within 21h, doable?

[serene reef]

waer it and its cool

you put it into a drawer neever wear

[cobalt sluice]

Should i get it once promos out?

[serene reef]

waste of money

[serene reef]

easy

[teal patrol]

yea

[bold kernel]

100% doable

[tough oyster]

where do i find the most amount of scavs

[cobalt sluice]

Im enjoying it and getting 150hrs a month

I want to get the edition under EOD

[tough oyster]

ive only been to the underground warehouse for the quest

[cobalt sluice]

Worth 20 quid?

[teal patrol]

just get eod

[coarse raptor]

go EoD or nothing

[teal patrol]

fr

[serene reef]

nah

upgrading once a month

etc

is pog

[teal patrol]

waste of time

[serene reef]

not everyone plays this game 24/7 like you

[cobalt sluice]

Lmao

[teal patrol]

brother you said 200 hours isnt worth eod

[serene reef]

personally lately i enjoy vibing in #beginners-assistance more than playing the game 😂

[cobalt sluice]

You need a marked key to leave your house

[teal patrol]

thats less than $1 hour

[cobalt sluice]

Truuu

[teal patrol]

how is that not worth?

[serene reef]

200h a wipe

is 200h / 6 months

[quasi yew]

tfw not fir :(

[cobalt sluice]

I got 150hrs in the first month

[serene reef]

33h a month

1h a day

3h once /3 days

[teal patrol]

yes?

[serene reef]

isnt worth eod no

[cobalt sluice]

Atleast you didnt sell it for 18500 instead of a aquamari cause tarkov is disabled and auto picked

[meager shore]

eod isn't worth it

[serene reef]

not if you're not from NA/GB that's for sure

[quasi yew]

f

[meager shore]

paying 140 for a game that is still in early access

[serene reef]

EOD itself is kinda a waste of money imo

[cobalt sluice]

Ima get the version you got

Whats it called?

[meager shore]

prepare for escape

[cobalt sluice]

Yeah

Gonna munch that shit on holiday sale

[serene reef]

FOR a game that was meant to be scrapped for elements towards their new game they were supposed to make

this game is an accident...

[cobalt sluice]

Wait

They are going to scrap it?

Fuck

I hope they give us the versions we bought for the next game

Cause if not I'm going to commit depression

[teal patrol]

reading comprehension moment

[cobalt sluice]

Tarkov is so good yet so bad

Next game going to be Entering to tarkov

[sterile elm]

looking for help on the Therapist task - Pharmacist

[fair trench]

@serene reef sorry could you elaborate a bit with the recommendation this is my first wipe so all the shortened terms get me pretty confused

keltec rfb with pk2 was it? for m80 is pog
or ap-m 366 ak
singlefire is meta nowadays

[meager shore]

there is no game like it

that's why people play it

[cobalt sluice]

Exactly

Except of Roblox ofc

Its a joke

[meager shore]

tarkov is a shitty fucking mess

[cobalt sluice]

Before i get banned

[fair trench]

is there a way to put a scope on an adar without it going like completely fucky

[cobalt sluice]

No just get the meta m4 599k build

[cobalt sluice]

But its fun too

[fair trench]

whats the meta m4 599k build 🙂

also does it cost 599k

[bold kernel]

Yes I’ve never had any issues putting a scope on an Adar… what do you mean by fucky?

[cobalt sluice]

Its very fucking expensive

[fair trench]

I've put a scope on one *(Scav adar) and its had like the iron sights aswell as the scope i put on

[cobalt sluice]

My go to when im rich is an mp5 ngl

[serene reef]

keltec rfb(gun) with m80 (ammo) (as long as you can buy m80 off of traders not flea)

[fair trench]

so its a big fucking metal dong in the middle of my scope

[cobalt sluice]

Take them off

[serene reef]

ap-m is another heavy hitting ammo

there's an ak that shoots it

[bold kernel]

Ah okay so this happens because the gas block on the Adar has the front sight integrated into it. You need to replace the gas block to remove the iron sight

[fair trench]

m80's are 1k each? holy shit

[serene reef]

there was a huge nerf to auto weapons (recoil increase) hence the single fire weapons being more used now

[fair trench]

Ahh okay thanks spaarkr

[cobalt sluice]

"take it off" was a useless answer my bad tho

[bold kernel]

Lmao

[fair trench]

I thought of that where i took off the 'iron sights' but then there was still a big penis on my scope

so i assume its what spaarkr was saying with the gas block

bit

[bold kernel]

Do you have the workbench at level one yet?

[fair trench]

yeah my hideout is the best i can have it currently i think

level 23 first wipe

Im just waiting on leveling so i can unlock the other upgrades

[cobalt sluice]

Edit preset or modify it, its way easier if you were using inspect

[fair trench]

i was using inspect

[bold kernel]

Yeah anytime I make a gun I’m using the edit preset menu, sooo much easier.

You can buy the MK12 gas block from mechanic or peacekeeper and replace your current one with it

[cobalt sluice]

Yeah edit preset is modifying guns and buying parts and modify is just putting it together with parts you already own

If you wanna make a small adjustment use edit preset, once done assemble, buy the parts and if some are a black shade then remove "traders"

[bold kernel]

If you use the edit preset menu you can tick the use parts you already have box and it works similarly to modding

[cobalt sluice]

At the top

[cobalt sluice]

And that too

But i prefer modding for modding guns already in my stash

[cobalt sluice]

Stash better than mine

[fair trench]

pretty proud of it

i bought p2w edition with starbucks gift cards it gives you bis stash

im sorry im a loser

[cobalt sluice]

Starbucks gift cards?

[tired crane]

i like how you felt the need to mention it was done with starbucks gift cards

[cobalt sluice]

Can you actually do that shit

[fair trench]

It was through starbucks gift cards

[cobalt sluice]

Or is it a joke

[fair trench]

no you can genuinely do it

[bold kernel]

Starbucks gift card gaming

[fair trench]

they dont give you full value though

[cobalt sluice]

See the handbook bar at the bottom next to character i think

[fair trench]

if you dont just have them laying around its not worth

[cobalt sluice]

Please click the numbers above it 🗿

[bold kernel]

EOD isn’t Pay to win. Standard accounts are like trial versions of the game. Eod is the full and proper game IMO

[copper meadow]

where can one find a climbing pick axs

[fair trench]

but i like 99 notifications

🐒

[bold kernel]

The red rebel? You can find it most commonly on shturman, but you can also find it in weapon boxes

[cobalt sluice]

The numbers annoy the shit out of me

[fair trench]

or barter it

im numb to it now

[copper meadow]

can i trade lad cards for one ?

[bold kernel]

You can check what you can get for any item by right clicking and selecting “required search”

[tired crane]

little lad cards are too rare to trade. its only way to get your own little lad

they carry tiny knives and kedrs

[cobalt sluice]

And Paper masks

[clever crow]

is it possible for me to change the shift + click and alt + click inventory keybinds?

[cobalt sluice]

Hey did you know a gpu is about 500,000 roubles on average? thats equivalent to 2500 pounds (not weights fatass)

[nocturne junco]

lets goo.... finally got all 5 flash drives

[cobalt sluice]

Where

I need 1 more for that little cunt jaeger

[coarse raptor]

So these are like what 3090 TIs we're finding in game?

[pure marsh]

I have no idea why that tagged him

Weird

[coarse raptor]

ya that was weird

[pure marsh]

Anyways the irl version is doodoo

[nocturne junco]

get the RB-KRPL and RB-KORL and RB-RLSA keys on reserve, then you just run up to queen, loot all 3 safes, and all like... 9 cabinets on night time

then extract with sewerhole lol

its rat but its worked.

[cobalt sluice]

Yeah

[cobalt sluice]

Arent those expensive as shit

Anyway i gotta sleep

Goodnight everyone

[copper meadow]

NN

[cobalt sluice]

Whether youre in a day time zone

[nocturne junco]

nah they're the cheap ones

kprl is 100k, korl 37k and rlsa 59k

kprl alone is super nice for 2 extra safes

[lapis junco]

can someone walk me through this gunsmith part 1 quest? must i find everything in raid or can i buy what i need?

[bold kernel]

You can buy what you need. Google gunsmith part 1 tarkov and click the first link. It gives you step by step instructions

[lapis junco]

k thanks

[bold kernel]

Yw

[rain wing]

most of the attachments you can just buy from traders

except for the muzzle brake

you can get that from like scav shotguns

[vagrant cargo]

Mp153>mp155>saiga>MTS255

im right eveyione else is wrong

[teal trail]

reddit mod vibes

[vagrant cargo]

ok try to have a better opinion than me

[teal trail]

shit this is hard

[vagrant cargo]

mo153 😍

[teal trail]

saiga>153>155

[vagrant cargo]

ok blocked

saiga is ASS

HAVE YOU SEEN THE CONE OF FIRE ON THAT BITCH 💀💀💀

mf ain’t accurate worth shit

[teal trail]

20 round drum + factory = better than your opinon

[vagrant cargo]

plus to use the mags you need weird ass rigs

[cobalt sluice]

Kedr> any of the meta guns

Anyway

[pure marsh]

[bold kernel]

[pure mist]

[wide sedge]

Oh

Well then i have no clue

[forest grail]

its the first one u bought

[brittle path]

like ever or like in inventory order?

[forest grail]

ever

[brittle path]

what about crafted/

[smoky moth]

when you're changing you should be able to view the preview screen

[brittle path]

@forest grail is there a fast way to unload my box?

[smoky moth]

put all the full scav boxes into sorting table, leave the empty one in stash
press TAB and construct the scav case

[brittle path]

ok

[forest grail]

I just sold everything i dont need

[forest grail]

and u had 5 of them?

[brittle path]

yeah 4 are full full and ones half

[forest grail]

Yeah u only really need 2/3

so itll be easy

[smoky moth]

open up sorting table and SHIFT + LEFT CLICK everything inside

and then close sorting table to leave them all in your stash

[real rune]

is the merin key still worth it?

[forest grail]

yea still good loot

[fossil flax]

Hey im new and ive been trying to get into the RBST keyroom on Reserve but i dont have the key please help me

[smoky moth]

buy it

[brittle path]

@smoky moth TY

is the custom marked room key ever for sale for rub

[smoky moth]

never

[forest grail]

just barter

[smoky moth]

charging roubles too high will lose them profit

because of the high fee

[brittle path]

@forest grail like what barter?

[smoky moth]

green keycard

which is never

LULW

[forest grail]

gpus, keycards

just check for yourself

[smoky moth]

why do people even need non-FIR gpus, for bitcoin miner it's ok, but its 100k at therapist

[pure mist]

Idk what you mean lol

It’s 500k on flea

[smoky moth]

non-FIR

you can't sell non-FIR in flea bro

[pure mist]

Bro I know. Idk why you said 100k to therapist

I know it is but no one ever have it on flea barter to sell to therapist

[smoky moth]

barter trading on flea will not give FIR items

[pure mist]

Bro you are not getting my point here

[smoky moth]

ok what's the point you're making here

[pure mist]

You said for btc farm its ok but 100k at therapist?

Are you suggesting people to vendor to therapist?

[smoky moth]

uh, no?

i meant that non-FIR gpus purpose is bitcoin farms

[pure mist]

That is what it sounds like

[smoky moth]

but not selling it at therapist

[pure mist]

You have a but there lol

[smoky moth]

because you lose 400k

[pure mist]

I think your phrasing what just confusing lol

[smoky moth]

yea

top left

[vague solstice]

ty

[twin oasis]

you can also just click on the shooting range before you enter and then hit enter at the top of screen

[blissful pivot]

can someone explain why i couldn't reload here

[trim stone]

What help do ya need

[smoky moth]

no space to eject the mag, you need to double tap R to make the mag fall on the floor

[blissful pivot]

ohhh

omg

[smoky moth]

im not sure about it too, normally it'll just drop the mag if you have full rig

did you run out of mags? the mags don't look the same to me

[blissful pivot]

they're different but they work in the gun

[smoky moth]

what about the ammo

[blissful pivot]

yeah

same ammo

762

x39

[smoky moth]

the ak gun is using 545 though

[blissful pivot]

oh wait

i'm not sure rthen

[smoky moth]

yea game probably didnt let you reload because of wrong ammo mag

and it thinks that the mag is for other guns

when your rig is full, it'll drop the magazine on the ground

[blissful pivot]

sdamn taht erally suck

i was right next to extract too

[rain timber]

are these chats for beginners who want to play with some experienced players?

bec im tired of solo q or just joining randoms and dying instanly

[wintry tusk]

solo is how you learn

being carried all the time doesnt help with confidence, but i just find solo or duo easier

[rain timber]

i dont think its about confidence i could just use a little help learning good loot locations or just learning some maps in general

[smoky moth]

#pvp-lfg

also randoms, but voice chat and less betrayal

[twin oasis]

this is so true. as much as i love this discord as a resource to use, these beginners assistances channels sometimes are like the blind leading the blind into war. the other day some guy tried to fight me about wearing helmets more than he wore headphones because he had a good pair of headphones irl. like bro it is a straight up buff to ur hearing distance in game, I will literally run naked and still wear a headset in game because of that

the best way to learn is through your own failures and incorporating what works for you. I have friends who are chads and i have friends who are rats and none of them are bad at the game they just play differently. I play more aggressively because I'm good at it and its what works for me. W key + flashlight peek everything. but theres nothing wrong with holding angles either, if it works for you go for it. the whole point of this game is to do anything to survive

and if that means rat your ass off, rat your ass off

[vague solstice]

Uhh shot a guy in the toes with a bp

and he ran away?

I thought shots to the leg stopped you from running

[trim stone]

You sure it hit?

[static notch]

hello

[lapis mauve]

bp doesnt do enough damage in 1 shot to black out leg, and he might have been on painkillers

[fair anvil]

I just got hillside house key what should I put it up for

or should I keep

[bold kernel]

dude holy shit what is this from

free hand drill I guess lmao

[bold kernel]

extracting with a player scav on a co-op extract

i got held as a hostage by a pmc as a scav

i guess that's why lmao

[open hedge]

the helmet lord

[coarse raptor]

he has 5! with a single head eyes he will vanish half the pmcs

[gray shell]

does the amount of weight you can carry barely even being able to walk/run improves as you level up ?

[smoky moth]

strength skill is what you need to level up

[gray shell]

does it take a lot of time?

[vital oasis]

found a dead pmc on interchange haha

[bold kernel]

[vital oasis]

name checks out

[smoky moth]

progression slows down as you master the strength skill

easiest way to level it up is carrying shit tons of stuff that makes your PMC heavy af and can't even sprint

[gray shell]

I killed 2 PMCs and they had extremely good gear and i had to abandon most of it because i was not going to be able to make it to the extract lol

it sucked

[bold kernel]

classic tarkov moment

[smoky moth]

what time was it?

and what map

[gray shell]

i only had 8 minutes left, on woods

i was by the convoy

needed to extract by the roadblocks

[smoky moth]

wow

[bold kernel]

takes 4 minutes to get to that extract from convoy

[gray shell]

and i didn’t bring money for the vehicle extract lol

[smoky moth]

that is very far

[gray shell]

i made it just because i dropped most of the gear

i had 39 seconds left

when i made it

[bold kernel]

jeez wtf? what is your endurance level?

also did you follow the road?

[gray shell]

It wasn’t much about that, i just wasn’t able to run much and i was almost dehydrated

[gray shell]

no i just cut in a diagonal line straight to extract through the woods

[bold kernel]

idk why i didnt realize it meant you were overencumbered

still, gotta train that endurance, ive made that same run fully looted in 4-5

[gray shell]

yes that’s why i was asking, it was frustrating to abandon all that good stuff lol

a few million in total

just abandoned

[smoky moth]

you can keep carrying a lot just make sure it's actually light enough to have your stamina regenerate when walking

but yea throwing your stuff away is best because you had 39 seconds left when you reached the extract

[gray shell]

yep, i was just almost dehydrated

it was a combo of bad luck and good luck

those 2 PMCs got headshot in 3 seconds but then i realized i had no time and no water lol

to level up my strength do i just carry a lot of stuff all the time ?

[spiral fiber]

is there a group running factory? I need to plant these toolsets and also find 3 exits

[bold kernel]

yeah, if you had the time for instance taking all that stuff to extract would have trained your strength

[bold kernel]

#pvp-lfg

[gray shell]

i learned my lesson now

[spiral fiber]

copy, sry @bold kernel

[gray shell]

i have money in my secured container lol

[dull tapir]

No if you fully use your stamina when you spawn in and repeat it every raid

[smoky moth]

carry a tank battery in EPSILON is best way for it

[bold kernel]

the OG method is just to fill your backpack pockets and vest with shotgun shells

[smoky moth]

or bring a MULE, not sure if that would stop strength progression though

[gray shell]

i just got into actually playing this game so i’m still learning

i have 50 hours on it but i just hit level 10 lol

[dull tapir]

It won't

[gray shell]

i never even payed attention to quests before

[smoky moth]

nice

[gray shell]

it took me a couple weeks, but now i can find my way around interchange customs and woods

i would go in offline and learn the rest but is not as fun

[dull tapir]

Use mapgenie or something

Or run offline

[gray shell]

that’s what i do

[smoky moth]

i have a ton of MULEs in my injector case but i never used them yet, im still grinding my way to EPSILON for extra 2 slots lul

[gray shell]

while online raiding

[bold kernel]

nice, next you should try to find your way around some bitches

[gray shell]

what is MULEs

[bold kernel]

an injector that increases your strength temporarily so you can carry more shit

[smoky moth]

ability to carry a lot more weight without affecting stamina drain

[gray shell]

ah, i need to unlock the flea market

[dusky geyser]

not even strength; just weight cap increase

iirc

[gray shell]

all i have is morphine and some other stuff for blood loss

injector wise

do you guys play in 1440 or 1080

[smoky moth]

i play on native resolution

im gonna try NIS later because tarkov drops fps so much im going to die

[gray shell]

i mean that depends on your monitor

what’s your native res

[gray shell]

DLSS should be releasing soon

[smoky moth]

1920x1080

[smoky moth]

surely it's not next wipe and it will be released this wipe

[gray shell]

i play mostly on 1440p but i’ve been playing 1080p lately and is fine, some maps and times of the day make it look very blurry though

[smoky moth]

you can use downsampling on 1440p resolution

[gray shell]

keep in mind my monitor is a of course a 1440p monitor so 1080p looks blurry on it

different from a native 1080p monitor

[smoky moth]

it'll make game look blurry too but sharpness will help

[gray shell]

with geforce ?

[smoky moth]

in-game settings have it

[gray shell]

oh

[unborn coyote]

Im a beginner

[gray shell]

i can’t wait for DLSS

[unborn coyote]

at geometry

[gray shell]

[smoky moth]

same, bsg replied to my request about fps problems and they said it's in the works

[gray shell]

i have okay frames in 1440p

60-80fps depending on the map

i’d just like 120+ lol

[warm minnow]

people running ir yet? or am i just getting really really unlucky w people knowing where i am

[smoky moth]

i have 40-60 fps

[gray shell]

keep in mind i play on high, it’s hard for me to see enemies

on low

[smoky moth]

never rised above 80 before

[smoky moth]

yea just use the in-game downscale setting

[gray shell]

what’s your gpu

[smoky moth]

and turn up sharpness

[smoky moth]

gtx 1650

[gray shell]

f

[dull tapir]

Thermals? If so yeah

At least the people I've fought

[gray shell]

to be fair

a 1650 should run this game a lot better than it does lol

it needs some optimization

[smoky moth]

yea, but unity engine

[gleaming helm]

hey guys, im fairly new to EFT and was wondering whod be down to kinda help me out a little 🙂

[gray shell]

true

i have a 3070

[smoky moth]

my specs run rust on 95 fps and 60 fps at minimum now

[gray shell]

and it doesn’t struggle but is not a 3070 experience for sure

[warm minnow]

thermals sadge for me

[waxen scarab]

Been playing with a thermal svd for a few raids now. Some of you guys are alright dont come to nighttime woods

[warm minnow]

this is customs day

[gray shell]

you should get an rtx card when you get the chance

[warm minnow]

im just tryna get golden zibbo quest done but i keep getting pinged either in full cover or in very covered foliage

[gray shell]

that way you can benefit from DLSS

even if it’s a 3050

[smoky moth]

im sure tarkov would run better than rust because it's a limited space compared to rust

and i was wrong apparently

[gray shell]

at least is not a comp shooter

you can survive with relatively low frames

[warm minnow]

are we talking about tarkov or rust ;_;

[smoky moth]

both

💀

[warm minnow]

idk about surviving tarkov w low frames

how you gonna hit shots?

[gray shell]

by shooting

[smoky moth]

have hope and pray

while the screen freezes

🙏

[warm minnow]

and we consider low frames <10fps?

[gray shell]

no

40-55

[bold kernel]

low frames for me is anything under 60

but i run at 100+ on most maps

[gray shell]

i could run it at 100+ consistent but

[smoky moth]

same

[gray shell]

i prefer 1440p

[smoky moth]

how much fps while it's 1440p?

[bold kernel]

im running 1080 @ 144hz which is fine enough for me

[gray shell]

80-90

could go as low at 75-80 depending on the map

[stable island]

how to survive placing toolsets on factory :c

[graceful marsh]

dont die

[stable island]

k

ok

[tame shard]

@smoky moth who did

[smoky moth]

?

[tame shard]

TELL ME WHO

Who died to an extract camper

[smoky moth]

you

[stable island]

he did

[smoky moth]

[tame shard]

No

I am the extract camper

[dusky geyser]

put them in your secure

dont die

run the db if you have to

[ivory heath]

This game officially hates me

I did 347 damage to this guy and he killed me

Not absorbed by armor damage, straight damage to him

How tf is that even possible

And guess what? He turns around and bops me in the head like nothing happened

[dusky geyser]

tfw forgot ammo

[rain wing]

level 14 now 🙏

just a bit more

[rain wing]

LOL

[ivory heath]

Yeah I know, but how did I not kill him when I did that much damage? Like surely I mustve shot his head a few times but noooo

[proven wave]

best labs stuff?

[ivory heath]

Like it was point blank, red building in customs

That key'd area

Yeah... I know that... I'm wondering HOW I didn't

[proven wave]

all i can use is 45 9mm and 7.62X39

[smoky moth]

you done with zibbo quest?

[rain wing]

not yet

[smoky moth]

i'll join at 4 pm

[rain wing]

been tryna get scav kills lol

[rain wing]

aight

[ivory heath]

No, I was just venting cause I'm pissed

[smoky moth]

hopefully we can stash zibbo in one raid

[rain wing]

wait were in the same timezone right?

[smoky moth]

yea

im literally next to your country lul

[untold elm]

cheap and effective flea weapon?

[versed valley]

i would say ak's because bt is on flea

[stable island]

tf i do with this thing

[versed valley]

sell

its used for gl i think

[stable island]

alright

[untold elm]

which ak is good and i can kit it out

[versed valley]

ak74n

[untold elm]

ok ty

[versed valley]

and akm for 762

ak101 is also good if you have some good 556 ammo laying around

[untold elm]

can you make a pistol full auto?

[versed valley]

there are full auto pistols

[warm minnow]

do eft lobbies still show global? theres no way right?

[versed valley]

glock 18, abs for example

[stable island]

whats a good way to get money up for sier

skier

[tame shard]

Silenced TT

And BNTI Module-3M

[vital oasis]

why do people rush tarcone directors office?

safes and pcs?

[stable island]

where can i find a gas analyzer

[vital oasis]

feel like theres better loot elsewhere?

[vital oasis]

oli

good place

or you can craft

or mechanic barter

[stable island]

do barter items come FIR

[slender raven]

anyone tryna group up?

[dusky geyser]

because pestily put the key in S quest, a bunch of PCs, intel spawn and safe

[olive bough]

As @dusky geyser said, loot, and some even use it as a sniping spot

[vital oasis]

where is the intel spawn?

[dusky geyser]

in the trash bin in the farthest room from the door

[olive bough]

In the second room, near jackets, trash bin

[versed valley]

in trash bins in the office

[stable island]

so can i find a gas analyzer anywhere in OLI

[olive bough]

Yeah but it’s better to go to tech stores like Rasmussen and Texho (did I spell them right?)

[stable island]

bro interchange is like the backrooms

shits scary

[stable island]

where do i check in texho

[olive bough]

On the shelves

[stable island]

bro im finding everything other than gas analkyzers

[twin oasis]

Scav interchange or reserve

[bold kernel]

rolled up on 2 dudes yesterday in big red who were prone on the trains looking toward RUAF, didnt hear my squad as we literally sprinted in, tapped both in the head with m80 and got FAT fucking loot

funny thing is there was only 10 minutes left and they both had food and drinks in their backpacks - they were legit sitting there all raid

[pure saffron]

Anyone trynna help me get better I’m pretty bad

[flint hill]

would anyone be down to help me get jaeger ?

im not trash - woods just hates me

[vital oasis]

killed a duo solo :))

first time haha

[stable island]

do planes always drop supply drops

[flint hill]

yes

[stable island]

TY

caps

[violet furnace]

what should i sell? i play with p90 and m4 a lot

[bold kernel]

got 5 labs key card, who do i sell it? therapist?

[vital oasis]

regular stash

so hard lol

[olive bough]

Standard edition issues. I feel you man

[limber mantle]

so scav karma

you also lose karma if you yourself is a scav and shoot another scav right?

this doesn’t effect if your a pmc and shoot a player scav or npc scav?

[flint hill]

correct

unless a scav shoots first - if you kill a bad scav you get good karma

[topaz violet]

I really like the ak74n

Its so cheap to make and its very good

[main brook]

should i keep or sell the RB-ORB1 key?

[versed valley]

if you dont run reserve sell

[jovial cosmos]

anyone wanna run some? this is only my 2nd wipe but im tryna frag. any map. na east dm me

[humble sun]

looking for a duo or trio pm to join no kids NA server lvl 12

[violet furnace]

NOOOOO

i wanted my zvezda

:(( sad me

[topaz violet]

Question guys, if im playing i seem to have trouble hitting people at the 40-50m mark with ars, it has a lot with the weapon swaying when I move. If im not using a fully kitted weapon, should I be standing still when I shoot?

[wicked marsh]

this aint cod, shoot then move

unless youre cqc

[quiet kraken]

how do headshots work

[wicked marsh]

or hipfire is good

[versed valley]

do you use scav gun or you buy em off traders?

[quiet kraken]

i got headshot by a scav using the grach and only got a red head

[topaz violet]

I buy from traders but its my first wipe so I dont really know what mods to get I just se whats cool lookin lol

[quiet kraken]

i had a helmet but it didn't cover my face

[stable island]

which ones do i sell

[versed valley]

use sks with 762 39 ps ammo

[smoky moth]

blacked out head means you're dead

[quiet kraken]

yeah but why didn't i die

[smoky moth]

red head is still recoverable

[quiet kraken]

the guy was only like 60m away

probably less

[topaz violet]

Will do!

So I get the regular sks or op sks

[crimson wharf]

depends

[topaz violet]

I generally play factory if thst hel0s

[crimson wharf]

don't run sks on factory

too small of a map

[topaz violet]

Ohh okay whst would you recommend

[versed valley]

first learn customs and do quests

[smoky moth]

server connection lost

on factory

[versed valley]

sks is cheaper, op sks is more expensive but can mount scope/sight

i recommend using sks and removing rear sight for better view

[topaz violet]

Ohhh okay

[crimson wharf]

yo where tf the ledxs be?

[versed valley]

resort

and labs

[crimson wharf]

that shit kinda be boof though

[tame shard]

thats hella sus bro

[crimson wharf]

they're kissing

[tame shard]

@open hedge me and you 😳

[crimson wharf]

what are rooms worth checking on shoreline?

[violet furnace]

where is best to farm cultist? customs near fortress?

[tame shard]

301

[snow crown]

customs next to warehouse 17 and mechanic imo

[tame shard]

and i definetly don't camp it

[smoky moth]

this awaiting server response thing happens when you tab out apparently

idk

[crimson wharf]

what side?

[tame shard]

west wing

[violet furnace]

but on customs only on fortress they can spawn

[oblique ruin]

am i missing any good keys other than W216 and E107

i would get E107 but its 187k rn

[tame shard]

nice, just found these

[oblique ruin]

rb-orb1 is 300k and e108 is worthless

the e108 key doesnt open anything

[tough oyster]

thoughts on this gun?

[tame shard]

i mean its 18.9k at least

[crimson wharf]

i wish i could just be blessed with a LEDX, but then again i am probably not looking in the right spots

what crafts that use the gun powders are worth it?

[dire rock]

as long as you craft the gunpowders then all of them are i believe

[crimson wharf]

all of the bullet crafts are?

[dire rock]

yup

[crimson wharf]

hmmmm

[dire rock]

its how i get M61/BP and ap 6.3

[crimson wharf]

do you have lvl 3 workbench?

[dire rock]

ye

[crimson wharf]

ahhhh

so far the only ammo that i would even consider making is SNB but i don't really see a point since i already have PS unlocked

[dire rock]

SNB gets through armor

[crimson wharf]

PS gets through it pretty well too, plus I like it because it can one shot the thorax

[dire rock]

only if they dont have armor

[crimson wharf]

Class 4 I thought?

[dire rock]

and if you come across anyone with an altyn or lvl 5/6 body armor then its going to be a bit harder to deal with them

[dire rock]

even if a bullet penetrates it still loses damage

[crimson wharf]

ahhhh

[olive bough]

What’s the pen chance of PS on class 4 again

[dire rock]

ballistics in real life have some chance/randomness to them and tarkov mimics that

[dire rock]

basically 100

[crimson wharf]

seems legit

so am i really that much better off using SNB?

[olive bough]

SNB is very good, and it’s cheap to craft

[dire rock]

everytime i decide to cheap out and stop using lvl 6 pen i run across some A-hole with an altyn or some BS that stops me from killing him so i run it just to make sure i dont lose a kill because of armor

[austere jacinth]

95% on a full durability Trooper, which has the highest dura of any T4 armor

[crimson wharf]

PS isn't really cheaping out thought either, it's a pretty expensive bullet

[dire rock]

true but you get what i mean

[olive bough]

Lol found a guy on reddit saying LSP is better than SNB

[austere jacinth]

PS will typically 1 tap and Altyn too. LPS can still do it even

[crimson wharf]

yeah, i know. are there any good crafts for the blue or green gun powders?

[dull tapir]

Tv rig is 85 durability too no?

[crimson wharf]

Higher percent though

[olive bough]

70 ps for a blue, 2 nades and a smoke for a green

[dire rock]

70 5.45 ps = 1 blue gunpowder

^^

[austere jacinth]

yes, and as such, has a similar pen, according to Battle Buddy

[crimson wharf]

no i meant like stuff you can craft with blue and green

[olive bough]

You can craft red powder

[dire rock]

oh, like i said i use it to craft M61 7.62 BP SNB and ap 6.3

[olive bough]

And you can use rthat for SNB

[crimson wharf]

valid, i already have a shit ton of red though

[dire rock]

you need 6 red for 80 M61 now

[crimson wharf]

i have 6 red just sitting in my stash

[austere jacinth]

even if it doesn't pen, it has a good chance for 35 dmg to go through.

[olive bough]

Jeez

Gotta get mentally ready for when I upgrade to workbench lvl 3

[dire rock]

not how the ballistics work, if a round doesnt pen it deals very little dmg your dealing more like 5 dmg

think realistically if a bullet stops in your armor how much damage will you take?

[crimson wharf]

i've also been making a bunch of blue gunpowder since power cable prices are really high rn

[austere jacinth]

it's called blunt dmg

and it's why you can 1 tap an altyn with AP-20 slugs

[olive bough]

So statistically you would have to hit him in the head 20 times with PS to kill him

Isn’t AP-20 called “armor piercing”?

[dusky geyser]

i kinda want the american chest rigs to have more blunt damage taken when it doesnt get penned

[austere jacinth]

it won't pen an altyn tho

Bullets can do 3 things when shot. Ricochet, Hit and NOT PEN, Hit and Pen.

[dire rock]

i understand that but blunt damage is really low only reason AP-20 can do it is because it has 164 fucking dmg

[austere jacinth]

Right, and PS is 86, your head has 35 HP.

[olive bough]

Ok but you don’t take 100% of base damage

[dire rock]

tbh ive never heard of one hitting an altyn with ap-20 but i wont call you a liar

all i know is ive hit a lot of altyns with m80/M62/LPS etc and they dont drop

[austere jacinth]

right, you take a % based on several factors, such as % dura of armor, tier of armor vs pen of round, ect

[crimson wharf]

do APM rounds sell for enough for the craft to be worth it?

[austere jacinth]

.366 AP? generally for more than 800/rnd

[dire rock]

im not good at math lol

600/rd right now

closer to 700

[austere jacinth]

night time hours, during the day it's over 800 generally

[crimson wharf]

bummer, so basically just craft the green and blue to make the red?

[dire rock]

i just rotate crafting all of them

[olive bough]

Sometimes I use blue to craft flechette along with fuel canister

That shit is so OP

[dire rock]

im not a perfectionist who needs to max out my hideouts rouble production though

[crimson wharf]

if i am using a shotgun round like that i would rather just use magnum

[austere jacinth]

.366 AP is a good bullet to use tho

[dire rock]

flech is my go to

[austere jacinth]

nah, Flech>Mag

[dire rock]

to each their own

[crimson wharf]

AP20>Flech

[austere jacinth]

takes 2 pellets to the head to drop them, but has what, 35 pen?

[olive bough]

I just don’t like aiming for the legs that’s all

[dire rock]

tarkov is not a game of bests everyone does better with what they like

[crimson wharf]

ehhhh kinda

there are some things that are definitely better than others

[austere jacinth]

there are bests, but everything is viable, which is part of the magic of tarkov

[dire rock]

of course but no need to get technical, all im saying is dont let others tell you something you like isnt good, use whatever you are succesful/comfortable with

[crimson wharf]

Lets go, i just got my beast of an SV-98 back

[austere jacinth]

underrated advice

[olive bough]

Literally facts

[narrow spire]

what should i do with my blue keycard

[olive bough]

That reminds me of the time that the same M700 MOD*X came back from insurance 3 times in a row

200K worth of sniper and one one wants it

[austere jacinth]

most players don't have a supply of high tier armor and helmets anyways, so literally whatever you can click forheads with
