I remember why i play solo, every time i ask for coms people think thats their queue to tell some story, then someone dies because nobody heard the enemy over them never shutting the hell up

pure talon
#

stick to one group or, if you play with random people, adjust your expectations 🙂

Looking for cracked duo to teach me the ways, past couple of randoms have tkd and im just having a hard time finding good teammates who dont have a crazy ego. big nerd gamer

echo flower
#

does the akmsn count as an akm series weapon for punisher?

#

should've just checked wiki, sorry to bother answer is yes

crimson wharf
#

what is the best npc to kill for gear?

pure marsh
#

Killa, tagilla or a stacked boss guard imo

crimson wharf
#

what about like outside of bosses, like raiders, cultists, or rogues?

pure marsh
#

That's more rng based, raiders aren't what they used to be so I'd vote cultists

#

They're probably around the same tbh but it'll be way easier to hunt cultists them to farm rogues

crimson wharf
#

how do you even hunt cultists?

pure marsh
#

!wiki cultists

There's also some dope videos that'll help you more than I can through text

crimson wharf
#

what is the cheapest set of nvgs?

simple moss
#

I upgraded to EOD but it gives me the option to upgrade to EU version

#

peak sparrow
#

eu version is best version

pure talon

Any one wanna show me the ropes

crimson wharf
#

what are the constraints when using NVGs? like can i still use high zoom scopes?

pure talon
#

everything is the same

crimson wharf
#

alright cool

pure talon
#

you'll get constraints when using thermal goggles

#

but that won't bother you for a quite some time 😉

crimson wharf
#

probably not

#

i don't need thermals for what im doing anyways

#

😈

pure talon
#

for factory you may get away with just a flashlight

#

for interchange you don't need nvg if you know the map

crimson wharf
#

but customs though

pure talon
#

for customs you need a nvg

crimson wharf
#

exactly

pure talon
#

your first wipe?

crimson wharf
#

@flint acorn join the quiz mate 😉

surreal wedge
#

What's a good gun to use for punisher part 4?

pure talon
#

shotgun

#

on woods

#

rfb on shoreline

#

best case scenario is you'll spawn by road to lighthouse - you rush to rock passage, kill the guy on the opposite side, run back to rock passage to leave

#

works if you spawn on the opposite side

surreal wedge
#

Ah fuck it i guess I'll bite the bullet. I really hate shoreline

#

Keep spawning on the right side too but whenever I rush the spawns there's no one there

dusky geyser
#

what do yall recommend for a sniping slug?

viral prawn
#

SNB

pure talon
#

ps

#

with current meta, even mid wipe, most players are still rocking lvl 4 armor

#

and ps is one of very few rounds that can one tap

viral prawn
#

Except against Tier 4, check the ammo chart, its 2 shots minimum, it's only 1 shot against un-armored, and i'd rather run SNB so its 2 shots to slick instead of 17

My way lets you control how much you want to screen while prtsc just takes a whole screen

limber notch
#

^

#

So I should turn on binaural audio then?

echo flower
#

also true, prtsc would paste all of my monitors, which I wouldn't want. I was just saying an alternative to what you suggested

how's p90 in midrange?

But its still decent coin to vendor for your troubles

I have 2 combo belts

sterile minnow

Fuck the combo kekw

crimson wharf
#

no cap combo is pretty nice for doing reserve manhole runs

frail anvil

True

#

But I use it as storage

crimson wharf
#

does tagilla always have his BOSS cap?

frail anvil
#

I dont run into him

#

But he should

rigid wind

are melee weapons like the pouch?

that you dont lose them

crimson wharf

yeah

#

lets gooo, i finally hit three mil

do they lose durability?

the only one that has durability i think is the cultist knife

Its a semi

ughhh i need to clear out my stash

frail anvil
#

Lol

wide sedge
#

I pretty much only run sks

#

If i lose it i dont really mind

digital sable
# copper sphinx Like who good

It’s not good, but it’s better than most of your other options at level 1 traders. It’s really just 7.62x39 PS ammo that makes it worth using. There’s also the VPO-136 available which is a semi auto only AK in the same caliber which I prefer.

crimson wharf
#

i have a severe hoarding problem

wide sedge
#

Most of the time i get them back from insurance

wide sedge
crimson wharf
#

so speaking of sks i think im gonna go get some scav kills on interchange

Surprisingly, my only pmc kill so far is with a tt33

I just headshotted the guy from 2 meters away

Im like level 5

#

ohhh 😂

Adar and go

#

I gotta do factory next

#

Adar is fun, but i just need better ammo

#

M855 doesnt really cut it now

crimson wharf
#

dude, your talking like you know the game. like you legit had me fooled for someone who is new 😂

#

I just watched alot of it

ohhhh

But i only just got the game

#

I know like all the quests but i dont know the controls too great

sterile minnow
#

You'll get there eventually g

frail anvil
#

Dont listen to that guy

#

855 is alright

#

Goes through 1 2 and 3

#

4 is a problem

merry swift
#

I really would try to avoid it at this point

frail anvil
#

Always works for me

merry swift
#

Lucky man

#

It's a 1 in 3 that it doesn't pen tier 3

frail anvil
#

Well

#

Also depends on recognizing the armor they got and where to shoot

#

If I see a un helm but mmac armor

#

Im shooting head

merry swift
#

Kinda moot because headshots kill no matter what ammo you're using

#

And it has a good chance not to pen t3 faceshields so there's that

frail anvil
#

Well you wont run a fucking altyn on customs now will you

#

Or woods?

merry swift
#

Altyns are t5

frail anvil
#

Its an example

merry swift
#

People run t3 faceshield helmets precisely on those maps

#

Because you can wear the ears

frail anvil
#

Ive only seen generic armor

#

Lvl 2 and 3

merry swift
#

It's kind of a weird argument to make either way because if you're a god gamer who hits heads only then your ammo choice doesn't really matter. Ammo in this game is about increasing the odds that you can get rid of the other guy quickly

#

Lvl 2 armor really?

#

People running pacas?

frail anvil
#

Some yes

merry swift
#

I don't see that much at all anymore tbf

#

Most people are running T4, fair amount of T5 depending on the locations you visit

#

For helmets T3/T4

#

Either way like I said, if you're a god gamer that only clicks heads you can run any ammo in your M4 and it'll be fine. If you're a normal person then you will probably want something that reliably pens T4 at this point.

limber notch
#

I run paca 😦

#

Or the t3 rig

merry swift
#

Ragman II is level 17 and he sells T4 gear

limber notch
#

I have gen 4 and tv-110 but gen4 is 100 to repair

frail anvil
#

Had an engagement with a dude today

limber notch
#

And tv-110 is for when I go raider farming

frail anvil
#

He was wearing un blue helmet

#

Im carrying ps ammo

#

You do the math

merry swift
#

TV-110's are great rigs

#

So much space

limber notch
#

They are my fav armour I think

#

Cheap, armoured rig and lots of space and iirc they have a 2x2 slot

merry swift
#

Yea I can imagine that. They're not that cheap tho, or they werent when I last looked at them on the flea

#

There's a barter for em at ragman III but that one isn't -that- cheap either

limber notch
#

Then idk, thought they were 100k or so

merry swift
#

repairs really well tho

#

Yea 100k isn't particulary cheap for a rig

limber notch
#

But no other t4 armour is cheap

merry swift
#

The other 2 popular T4 rigs are a lot cheaper tbf

limber notch
#

Oh

#

Well idk no flea yet

merry swift
#

It's barters/sales from ragman II

frail anvil
#

Mmac

#

Rig/armor combo

merry swift
#

There's a yellow rig dubbed the ratrig that he sells for just over 55k. And there's a barter for the MMAC which is very similar that you can get for a little less

limber notch
#

Oh yeah the rat rig

merry swift
#

The mmac is thorax only, the other one covers stomach too

limber notch
#

Not much space though

merry swift
#

Yea true

#

You get what you pay for in the end

limber notch
#

Mhm

merry swift
#

armored rigs with a lot of space are expensive

limber notch
#

Is tv-110 on flea?

merry swift
#

yup

#

oh no hang on

#

I think they took it off at some point

limber notch
#

Oh

frail anvil
#

Well

#

You dont need stomach

#

Just thorax head and legs

#

The rest of it isnt needed

merry swift
#

You can get the M1 armored rig on the flea which has a ton of space too and is T4

merry swift
#

only arms, thorax, stomach and various parts of the head

limber notch
#

Which is why there is leg meta

merry swift
#

Yea exactly

frail anvil
#

Ik

sterile minnow
#

should I do farming part 4?

frail anvil
#

Im just saying

#

You dont need arms

#

Or stomach

merry swift
#

Honestly tho @limber notch I'd just get the cheap rig and grab your inventory space in a backpack

frail anvil
#

Just legs head and thorax

crimson wharf
#

i thought you got items for doing a scav extract

damn thats rare, tell us what u get smilers

#

I got a backpack last night

merry swift
#

I don't think investing in the farm is worthwhile

crimson wharf
#

wait how are bitcoin prices changing?

merry swift
#

Let alone the higher levels

dawn geyser
#

I'm waiting for it to go back up

dawn geyser
merry swift
crimson wharf
#

deadass?

dawn geyser
#

That's why GPU's irl are cheaper than now

merry swift
#

Yea mate

crimson wharf
#

that's actually funny asf

sterile minnow
#

I got like 6 bitcoins, might have t o sell one cus im at 400k kekw

frail anvil
#

I have to find gpus in raid

#

Rip

dawn geyser
#

If you see cheap bitcoins in game, you might see cheap GPU's IRL

merry swift
#

So are dollars and roubles if you noticed dollars being more expensive in roubles the last few days. It's because the rouble took a dive after the russian invasion.

#

So peacekeeper will ask you more roubles for his dollars

crimson wharf
#

that's actually crazy i had no idea they did that

merry swift
#

It's a fun element

#

But the bitcoin pairing got kinda out of hand when bitcoin IRL was hitting 50k+ values

#

People would get 800.000 roubles per bitcoin

#

So they added a factor inbetween, it used to be 1:1

crimson wharf
#

is running a pilgrim worth it?

merry swift
#

Wouldn't run them in wooded/grassy areas personally, you stick out like a sore thumb

crimson wharf
#

so probably like customs or interchange?

#

lets go i got a SVDS out of the co-op extract

merry swift
#

Sure, taking pilgrims to interchange early wipe to load up is a classic

crimson wharf
#

welp, time to go kill more scavs on interchange'

#

maybe make some more friends

severe bobcat
#

Im so vexxed, killed a fully geared guy while i had barely any armour but i bled out right beside extract ;-;

frail anvil
#

Should bring more meds

severe bobcat
#

I only had one esmarach

merry swift
#

If you get caught off guard like that you could check dead scavs or beeline towards med spawns/scav spawns

severe bobcat
#

and I stopped heavy bleeding once and then got shot again

merry swift
#

Scavs often carry esmarch/bandages

frail anvil
#

Hes making me wanna go kill scavs on inter now

severe bobcat
#

I also cant seem to find an electrical drill anywhere

severe bobcat
#

never played interchange but ill try

Am i gonna get lost easily?

I wonder if interchange was taken from somewhere irl

frail anvil

#

Probably lol look up a guide thats what I did for any maps I didnt know

whole thistle
#

merry swift
#

Interchange isn't all that sweaty anymore tbf now that ultra medical got nerfed and GPU's aren't that pricey anymore

whole thistle
#

this is a joke I'm not that delusional

limber notch
#

I went to Ukraine servers yesterday and someone said they were in tarkov irl

merry swift
#

I find a lot of mediumgeared guys trying to do quests or do lootruns on interchange mostly

crimson wharf
#

frail anvil
#

This farming quest is gonna be a pain

feral jay
#

I wonder if i Passed the red circles LOL

plucky ravine
feral jay
#

O i see

plucky ravine
#

that’s the first store u see if u go into the mall in the middle

limber notch
#

I know theory about the game. But ive had the game since 2019 and have about 350hrs. So even though ik what stuff is i lack experience I guess

frail anvil
#

Tech shops

#

Thats where you find tech shit

feral jay
#

whats the best starter quests to do

merry swift
feral jay
#

whats that

merry swift
#

On a more real note, just do them as they come

#

You gotta do some to unlock others

feral jay
#

how do i do the gunsmith one

limber notch
#

Whats test drive?

merry swift
#

You can look at the quest paths on the wiki. There are optimal ways of doing it but that's just speedrunner stuff

feral jay
#

I cant get a part

#

Because its LL2 trader

merry swift
frail anvil
#

Just wait till you upgrade to it

merry swift
#

They're not required to progress

limber notch
#

But are good xp

merry swift
#

Sure

frail anvil
#

I need to do dvl one

limber notch
#

Only gs pt1 is needed

merry swift
#

But you can postphone that one till lvl 2 traders no worries

limber notch
#

But you need it for farming no?

merry swift
#

I think a later gunsmith also unlocks an additional quest

#

but I dont know which one

merry swift
steel oxide
#

At what scav karma do scavs start attacking you as scav?

unkempt ingot
#

what's the best map to do zhivchik on?

feral jay
#

whole thistle
unkempt ingot

unkempt ingot
feral jay
#

crimson wharf
feral jay
#

i just need a solid gun

crimson wharf
feral jay

#

the

#

scav ai hunt thing

unkempt ingot
#

shotguns

feral jay
#

shotguns r cheep

#

ok

unkempt ingot
#

most scavs don't wear good armor, shotguns should be effective

feral jay
#

ok ty

whole thistle
#

I diagnose you with skill issue

#

Shotguns are pretty good for cheap tho

feral jay
#

they were all chest shots and leh shots

whole thistle
#

I fucking hate shotguns and that makes them a good choice

feral jay
#

the scav took 9 rounds then proceeded to double pump me

whole thistle
#

Only chest and head shots directly kill btw

#

If you only hit limbs or stomach you need to do all of their health for it to kill

#

(440)

plucky ravine
whole thistle
plucky ravine
#

also could be ammo issue

gaunt tapir
plucky ravine
#

plucky ravine
#

ps should fine

whole thistle
feral jay
#

whole thistle
prime comet

#

esmarch keeps you going

prime comet
#

or is it 60+

feral jay
#

Heavy bleeds and light bleeds are separate things, not based on the timer

urban wolf

waxen scarab
plucky ravine
#

punisher

urban wolf
#

From who

whole thistle
plucky ravine
#

prapor

prime comet
#

yeah no the bleed being a higher number will mean its a heavy bleed, i just dont know what the like limit is between bandage/esmarch

whole thistle
plucky ravine
#

SAME

urban wolf
#

I need to figure out how to do punisher

plucky ravine
#

GL lmfao

urban wolf
#

Maybe I should do prapor tasks now

plucky ravine
#

it’s very time consuming

#

not hard tho

urban wolf
#

What do u do

#

In them

plucky ravine
#

kill scavs and many pmcs

whole thistle
plucky ravine
#

on specific maps with specific gear

waxen scarab
urban wolf
#

How many is many

plucky ravine
#

15 pmcs , and like 50-60 scavs total or so

#

acc no

whole thistle
prime comet
#

theres a number for the amount of blood you're losing right

plucky ravine
waxen scarab
#

light bleeds always take same amount, heavy bleeds as well

whole thistle
#

In your overall stats there is but I'm pretty sure that's just minutes spent bleeding @prime comet

waxen scarab
prime comet
#

have you never seen the blood loss number

#

what

#

am i high

urban wolf
#

I’m same level as you and I haven’t finished punisher lol

plucky ravine
#

f

whole thistle
plucky ravine
prime comet
#

it's easier to look at the number than scan over your limbs

plucky ravine
#

that was my main goal this wipe

prime comet
#

that's how i've always been able to tell if i need a bandage/esmarch

waxen scarab
whole thistle
plucky ravine
#

lmao yea

prime comet
#

wait there's a bleed icon? lmao

plucky ravine
#

🗿

waxen scarab
plucky ravine
#

lmfao

prime comet
#

i had no idea they existed

whole thistle
#

It's also on the health menu if you do open your inventory

prime comet
#

health manequin what

waxen scarab
#

bruh you over here doing calculus to figure out if you need to use an esmarch eft_PrapKEK

prime comet
#

oh the optional thing

whole thistle
prime comet
waxen scarab
#

what the hell are you saying

#

I'm so lost 😂

whole thistle
plucky ravine
#

w h a t

prime comet
#

have you never looked at your blood loss number

plucky ravine
#

no

prime comet
#

or have you just always healed it depending

whole thistle
#

Bleeds can't change type and they can only be healed by one type of item

prime comet
#

if you;ve always just looked at the type of bleed and healed it then you probably havent looked

waxen scarab
#

dude you can have more than one bleed if that's what you're saying, it isn't a variable number. a light bleed will ALWAYS do the same amount of damage over time, same as a heavy

prime comet
#

pops up here, above the green

#

red number

waxen scarab
#

yeah that's your rate of health lost, i know what you're saying but why are you looking at that to determine what kind of bleed you have

prime comet
#

tis your current blood loss, i've always peaked that

whole thistle
#

The 440 is your health not blood lol

unkempt ingot
#

i keep a calculator near my computer when i play tarkov to see if i need to use an esmarch or a bandage

prime comet
#

that's how i've been determining what meds to use for the past week

violet furnace
#

can someone send me asap reserve keys list?

whole thistle
prime comet
#

i never knew they existed

#

and i have no idea what this mannequin is that you're on about either

whole thistle
#

If you have more than one bleed just looking at your health decay won't be too helpful

prime comet
#

i've played a week kekw

unkempt ingot
#

i bleed out every time i get a bleed, but at least i'm practicing my maths skills

whole thistle
prime comet
#

like am new

#

because he doesnt have a pc

waxen scarab
prime comet
#

i've seen it ding up from time to time

#

only ever when a limb gets blacked out

unkempt ingot
#

it dings up when you recieve damage

#

bleeds included

waxen scarab
#

See the person meditating? That's a status effect, you'll see the type of bleed pop up there. I recommend setting it to always be up

prime comet
#

is there a w-

#

thats what i was about to ask

waxen scarab
#

yep, gameplay settings

#

you can also turn it from Green to red instead of monochrome

prime comet
#

waxen scarab
#

Mono is white to red

violet furnace
#

unkempt ingot
#

prime comet
#

unkempt ingot
#

prime comet
#

man i swear everytime i touch this game it has shit i didnt know about

violet furnace
#

i know that, but r all keys useful?

waxen scarab
#
