No I'm just confused as to why all the new players expect to be fully coached xd

#

Like actually though

#

I never seen a game where anyone would expect to be taught how to play the game

clear tartan
#

Im not expecting fully coached im j lookin for help

#

chill xD

quaint quarry
#

To be fair no other game is quite like tarkov

serene reef
#

It's not aimed at you < 3

stiff pumice
#

yup

serene reef
#

Chill friendo

#

I'm genuinely thinking about this in massive scale

stiff pumice
#

@serene reef is right a lot of new ppl expect for a "pro" to help them

quaint quarry
#

Arguably though, that is the best way to learn the game

serene reef
#

Like is it because everyone hears about sherpas?

quaint quarry
#

(And most likely least painful)

serene reef
stiff pumice
#

i have actually seen new ppl reject people that are below level 50 since they "arent good enough"

serene reef
#

Sherpa dies once wtf fake sherpa xD

olive bough
#

Of course…

quaint quarry
#

I was one of the people who learned how to play by trial and error in solo raids

olive bough
#

Sherpa are not all-knowing and all powerful beings!?!?!?!??!

quaint quarry
#

Getting a sherpa would have been a lot less painful

stiff pumice
#

if your first raid dosnt end in mia then you arent doing it right

#

thats all im sayin

serene reef
#

Mood

#

solo raids have just been killing my motivation for the game hahahaah

serene reef
#

I never really liked the idea of offline raids

olive bough
#

I have learned by playing solo all wipe, and I’m kinda glad for it. Don’t really want people to come in and teach me how to play, I wanna develop my own playstyle

Watch me sit in shadows with an altyn and meta 762 or rush so hard people get scared even if with just a sniper up close

:d

quaint quarry
#

Always respect the bolt action user

serene reef
#

👌

olive bough
#

I always loved to help people however I can, and right now not being so good at the game I can only provide technical knowledge. I feel like becoming a sherpa is my ultimate objective, being able to help people that will be in the same place I am right now

serene reef
#

Being a would be too troublesome

#

Not hard, a pain in the ass

#

Change my mind

#

I don't need the logo to help new players

#

Never needed in the past when I was actively doing so

quaint quarry
#

Sherpa and "official" Sherpa are two very different things

olive bough
#

It’s kinda “help to give help” y’know

serene reef
#

But being a sherpa imo limits you

#

Where you HAVE to help

#

Like you need to accept help requests

olive bough
#

You are not forced to afaik

serene reef
#

You can reject, but after how many rejections you're stripped if the sherpa title as inactive?

hasty depot
olive bough
#

No it’s not like you ”reject”, from what I know you can choose who to help

serene reef
#

Just give everyone respect

#

Especially if they have a toz and a slickbit.

quaint quarry
#

I w-key everything except bolt actions, they are scary

@orchid salmon i don’t wanna say bs please confirm

hasty depot
orchid salmon
#

You definetly don't "need" to become a Sherpa to help people, you can do that in here or in the Sherpa hub through LFG / LFH channel's too, or any tarkov discord to be fair. A sherpa will provide a session with high standards and structure though.

orchid salmon
# olive bough <@!316310558989221895> i don’t wanna say bs please confirm

There's a minimal requirement of sessions, you don't want people to apply for sherpa and then do nothing because they have the green name. That would be become a sherpa for the wrong reasons. If you like helping players with tarkov, the min. requirement isn't a problem in my opinion at all. I also don't see it as a struggle.

olive bough
#

Ok yeah that’s what I assumed

orchid salmon
#

And we are human beings allowed to go on holiday too 😉

#

Has anyone ever killed you while you were doing sherpa things for them

serene reef

:3c

#

I've killed plenty unofficial sherpas

So far no, but that'll be inevitable some time 😉

I fear someone may actually be that downbad

Even managed to spare the low lvl

I mean if you kill the enemy squad

And it's alright to be fair, I still teamkill once in a while in a chaotic situation

And you see a noob that is scared

Only wants to live

He does voip

#

Wouldn't you let them go?

#

If it’s not in my team, no mercy.

orchid salmon
#

It's why I prefer to play solo or duo, anything bigger just gets chaotic in comms and stuff

#

What do you evengain from killing them? Safety? Plenty of ways to guarantee that

orchid salmon
olive bough
serene reef
#

Exactly

quaint quarry
#

Personally duo is my favourite way to play. One person to keep track of and then just shoot on sight

#

any alpha armband users in here?

orchid salmon
# stiff pumice yee

It's a very basic kit, meant for new players that might've lost their starting kits already. Don't expect much of it (and don't pick the scav playstyle lol)

serene reef
#

I hadlabs armband but traded for merin when it was still good

#

Last time I opened merin it was EMPTY XD

#

Then like 30k

serene reef
#

I think that lighthouse nerf hit it hard

Labs armband = cool

serene reef

But I wouldn't know

Cool = no die

orchid salmon

#

All you really need is two leaders not one

stiff pumice
#

i used to do 5 man in the "lfg beginners vc" never again

#

the chaos is bad

pure mist
#

5 man just most likely go wrong

serene reef
#

Where they are good enough to keep count of where friends are

pure mist
#

So rare all 5 survives

stiff pumice
#

you gotta keep in mind if they are new they cant do callouts if you ask where they are 0-0

serene reef
#

So there can be a fast response: we're heading from bridge to, skeleton

orchid salmon

#

Response to that: we're at fortress

#

I love fighting 4/5 mans solo, you can literally counterplay their discord comms and confusion, it's great.

stiff pumice

always love the "is that you" followed by a bullet in the face

And everyone is confused

Spider main point

impacts vs 5 mans

3.5isn't delay

stiff pumice
#

i just rarely kill with them

serene reef
#

If you're throwing them like vog25s you're doing it wrong

stiff pumice
#

i might just be bad at throwing xD

serene reef
#

You throw them from above

#

Big range

#

Like throw them at a building they're in front

#

High above them

#

Etc

orchid salmon
#

Nades are not always meant for actually killing players with it, see it as a tool for many different things, flush people out of a position or room, clear an area you don't wanna peek first, use the delay to push up, use the sound and explosion to reposition yourself... many uses for nades.

serene reef
#

Bait nades!

olive bough
#

VOGs might be the only nade that actually is used to kill

serene reef
#

People are curious when they hear explosions :3c

stiff pumice
#

you could also be one of the people who can throw grenades and make them make 0 sounds when landing

Make them chase you

#

Well, I forgot about impacts but that’s another story

serene reef
#

Go upstairs

#

Right click nade into door

#

The other died to a good shot tho

#

II think he lost confidence cause teammate died and I was proactive

olive bough
#

I actually need to learn customs callouts. I know a few like fortress, crackhouse and skeleton but that’s about it. Basically never played with a team so I didn’t have occasions or the need to learn them

serene reef
#

Get someone to point em all, on the map

#

The main ones

orchid salmon
serene reef
#

I'm sad no nades in gamma

olive bough
#

Btw do impacts explode on breakable windows?

serene reef
#

I do believe so, but they don't explode for 1s

#

Or so

#

Idk thought if they do explode.

orchid salmon
#

I don't mess with nades and glass windows in general. Might be old habit when that was still bugged often.

serene reef
#

Lmao yeah

olive bough
#

Yesterday I had a fight at big red and I stg I couldn’t get nades inside the office

#

He ended up tapping me in the head with x39 bp

Just keep them inside

Also imo acog is fun to use

Although it's not too good

#

It's 18k though

#

But not the triangle one

#

The one that has the tan version

orchid salmon
#

There's not really a "best" scope - I would recommend trying to use the same scope (and same gun, if possible) more often, because you get a feel for the bullet drop / aiming height etcetera on longer distance shots.

serene reef
#

You can go prone to stabilize aim and hold breath

#

See how much scope moves

#

When you zero it to max like 200-400m

#

Also cheap long range ppl sleep on is 1p59 / 69

#

And the funny 34mm 3-9 time was it? The tan one

#

ItI zooms weird

#

Like dead ass the 3x is 12x

And the 9/12 is like 20

orchid salmon
# merry swift Whats with the cobra? 0 ergo penalty pretty cool no?

Yeah, the chevron is best of all the modes but when you are shooting a svd with a 1x you need accuracy imo, that chevron is way to blurry/inaccurate still, I can't use it I rather shoot irons. If you running like a cheap pp-19 build or something the cobra is fine for that.

upper star
# smoky moth

If u can play M62/61 .. idk but M80 feels kinda shit

orchid salmon
# stiff pumice can i get the sherpa oppinion on m80 vs m62?

Sure, M62 is the better round, little more pen makes it more reliable fighting high tier armor and don't forget the overlooked -5 recoil on m62 which m80 doesn't have which is pog for the MDR and MK17 308. BUT the round is expensive and M80 is already a great performing round and super cheap, so go with what you can afford.

robust robin
#

M62 is alot better at penning tier 5

upper star
#

I still stick with 7.62 BP is a awesome round

And its better for sniping so you can see drop

stiff pumice
#

on that i agree

upper star
#

Tracers are broken

robust robin
#

Very situational though, with ballistics changes

stray tulip
#

M80 Is great for customs i'd say any other map needs m62.

orchid salmon
#

I don't, m61 has higher bullet velocity and I don't need tracers I know the distances and can zero / adjust.

upper star
stiff pumice
#

when i snipe i use m80 since i always go for headshots anyways...

Altyn would like to know your location

but if you end up running one then m80!

it is rare that you dont pen it

# rigid wind so why do so many people want sugar too

moonshine is 280k ish, and you can make moonshine in your hideout for 2 sugar and purified water (90k-100k, or craft from water filters). So it's a good way to passively earn money or use the moonshine on the thicc item case barter.

actually skull rape you

atleast killa wont chase you and hit you with a hammer

cant even run when tagilla is there

open hedge
#

Tagilla is easy to cheese if you don’t also have to deal with a rpk or pp19 with good ammo

#

Killa makes it a little harder

stiff pumice
#

i persnally think tagilla is the hardest

#

but on interchange he has to run sooo far

#

that it is okay

#

killa on the other hand will just snipe you

open hedge
#

I think tagilla is the easiest boss in the game

stiff pumice
#

that spot is reserved for reshala in my book

#

atleast when he is in dorms

#

then he is easy

open hedge
#

30rd of pst gzh to tagillas knees and he’s down

#

Very easy

stiff pumice

i just feel like he will slap you with his hammer so fast

#

yet he feels easier this wipe

than the last

open hedge

It’s about how you run from him

#

Your position matters

stiff pumice
#

i never kill him without his armor being gone

Shoot him when he sees you and then break line of sight

unless mp5

mp5 bad

Mp5 is only good if you’re a scav

#

It’s good enough to kill

stiff pumice
#

it can be used

open hedge
#

Not ideal

stiff pumice
#

but anything is better

open hedge
#

It has very low stock recoil tho

stiff pumice
#

yee

#

but mp9 goes brrrr

#

and cheap

#

mpx is cooler

#

and vector is better

#

not even talking about how the mp5 isnt even that cheap

open hedge
#

Good pull off raiders because it’s almost always 150rds of Luger

stiff pumice
#

yee

open hedge
#

I don’t personally like using the vector it’s a cowards gun imo

#

My pride won’t allow it

stiff pumice
#

mp5 = too slow for leg meta - too low pen without ap to kill chunky bois - if ap ammo use mpx

stiff pumice
open hedge
#

Mpx is my go to 9x19

#

That’s why I hate it

#

I’m the one screaming

In anger

That’s how I see it

stiff pumice

i rly dont like ks-12

since they are exspensive

if i kill a ks-12 dude i wont even keep the gun

I have not bothered to check in a while

orchid salmon
#

Generally speaking they made it locked a bit more and you need to buy up ammo several resets to get a good stack of it. Also I think because of the (iron sight) inaccuracy alot of ppl are skipping it right now.

open hedge
#

I think they should just remove the barrels

#

That would make it fair

#

Or make the ammo fir only but up its spawns a bit

frank condor
#

How do you aim an sks with the dovetail thingy. The optic sits left of center and my shots ain’t hitting 😂

open hedge
#

Always hits for me

frank condor
#

At a close range your not adjusting slightly? It seems like I should be aiming up and left slightly

open hedge
#

I don’t adjust it

#

Ever

frank condor
#

Well I guess I’ll just try that lol

open hedge
#

Although I don’t use sks much so I may just be wrong

They’ve been a thing all wipe

Or are you asking him specifically?

frank condor

No I just started this wipe lol

#

I haven’t played in several months

#

But yeah they definitely updated a few things and added some new guns and stuff

open hedge
#

That’s kind of the idea with updates

merry swift
#

So having more rpm makes it a cowards gun

#

Or what part of it

open hedge
#

It’s too easy to use

serene reef
#

vector is too expensive for what it offers

open hedge
#

RIP and leg meta is not skill

serene reef
#

change my mind

merry swift
#

vectors aren't used for legmeta tho

#

Or we talking 9 mill

open hedge
#

On factory it’s all they use

frank condor
#

Guns are pretty

merry swift
#

Really? Vector with AP slaps

open hedge
#

Factory “chads” just use 9x19 RIP

serene reef
#

you bite someone's ankles and they fall over

orchid salmon
#

Ill fight a "factory chad" with a vector any day, I love selling vectors to mechanic.

merry swift
#

Oh really. I don't factory a lot so you might be right for all I know, but I feel like vector legmeta is a lot more expensive to run than the other 2 options you listed

#

Not huge on impact nades either

open hedge
merry swift
#

KS23 is pretty shite rn

#

I mean they have to aim tho because their rounds do nothing to the chest/face

copper sphinx
#

I go db

frank condor
#

I like using cheap guns sometimes

copper sphinx
#

Im the chad

orchid salmon
#

Running any leg meta setup puts you in a disadvantage, so I wouldn't say they are skillless or don't have to aim.

serene reef
#

we need this

#

with thor t6 aarmor

merry swift
#

Hitting legs isn't any easier than dumping BP rounds into somebodies chest IMO

serene reef
#

zebralo

orw/e was it

merry swift

It takes longer too

#

Ngl I don't feel like being kneecapped by vectors is something I struggle with but then again I don't 'main' factory

#

Impact nades tho

serene reef
#

i never meet any leg meta users

#

one thing you dont want to do when you hear a nade pin

#

is oush

#

push

merry swift
#

Sometimes I run into guys running ultrabudget legmeta kits with a big backpack

jaunty cliff
serene reef
#

depends

merry swift
#

But those are typically not vectors

serene reef
#

im talking if they have enough time to arm the nade

#

if you're close enough i do that as well

#

but im talking the kinda length where you risk it

#

like think

jaunty cliff
serene reef
#

if they push you meanwhile

#

aka they holding the pin

#

you kill them before they throw

kedr is all you need

Kedr > glock recoil and price wise, also SP7 dirt cheap, 30 rounders dirt cheap, ammo cheap, no mods necessary, good iron sights

jaunty cliff

Bolt action 👎

orchid salmon
#

Idk what else you ask for in a budget gun.

merry swift
#

Bruh bolties are fun as fuck

#

So much more satisfying to line up that one shot instead of tapping your 30 rounder m1a

In my opinion but whatever you enjoy most 👍

That's why you run 50 rounders on the glock mate. Your PMC will have an absolute seizure every time you shoot it but one of those 50 might hit em in the face

There is the ballistics chart on the wiki you could use for your ammo choice. Basically you will want ammo that has a 5 or a 6 in the tier 4 armor category if you can find it. The higher your rate of fire, the less penetration you 'need' for ammo to be viable

there is no need for night vision in interchange right?
