[mint light]

always heal before u loot

[urban wolf]

Yea

[silent hamlet]

I did

[mint light]

get ur bearings and see if there are more enemies

[silent hamlet]

Healed. Looted. Bled out.

[mint light]

not correctly because u bled to death

[urban wolf]

Whenever i see streamers loot before healing their 2 heavy bleeds and 3 fractures and 5 lightbleeds, i get angry

[silent hamlet]

I even check him for meds 😦

He had an MDX. Nice kit

Oh well

[mint light]

did u just not bring enough bleed stoppers and had multiple bleeds or what

[silent hamlet]

So fun!

[urban wolf]

MDR?

Or mpx

Or mcx

[mint light]

yeah what

[open hedge]

Mcx bad

[silent hamlet]

One of those.

[open hedge]

Mpx can be good

Mdr good

[mint light]

mpx is rip gaming

[urban wolf]

Mpx low recoil if u spend enough on it

I dont like tho

[ancient violet]

it says error 299 profile in match wtf is this ?

[open hedge]

Mpx with AP is chadly

[urban wolf]

No

AP is for nerds

[mint light]

9mm is dog

[urban wolf]

Pistol ammo is bad

[open hedge]

Bruh I melt people with 9x19 ap

[urban wolf]

Except 7.62x25

[silent hamlet]

Level 25. RIP. My first PMC. I am so pleased.

[mint light]

ur first pmc kill?

[silent hamlet]

Yes!

[mint light]

my first pmc kill i just fucking lobbed a nade and he just screamed and died

[open hedge]

That’s literally the lowest dps pistol/smg round in the game

[median niche]

I see thanks, I noticed shotguns for example sway much less, gonna experiment with other stuff

[silent hamlet]

It was a brutal close range fight between the transformers at power station!!

[urban wolf]

7.62x25 should be buffed to be better than 9mm

[mint light]

so guys i grenaded this guy and i didnt kill kill tag said “died”

[urban wolf]

Its literally a mini rifle round

[mint light]

did he just bleed to death or what

[open hedge]

Means he disconnected

[mint light]

bruh just left

i therew a nade at his feet and he left 💀

[open hedge]

Yes

[celest marlin]

i fucking hate SBIH on shoreline you never fucking see ANYONE

FUCK THIS SHIT

[robust robin]

Best pistols rounds are 5.7 .45 and the sr1mp rounds

[open hedge]

^

[urban wolf]

Ehats sbih

[mint light]

5.7 go hard

[open hedge]

9x19 is only effective if it has a rpm over 800

[robust robin]

Sends em to heaven

[urban wolf]

Pistol rounds are useless

[open hedge]

AP 6.3 melts people so well

No recoil

[celest marlin]

USP 45 acp is decent

[robust robin]

You say that till you use any of the good pen pistols

[mint light]

vss is actually value

[robust robin]

Imagine a 9.39 pistol, 60 pen round

[open hedge]

I don’t use pistols 9x19 is only a smg round as far as a care

Why am I being insulted

[robust robin]

I was talking to the "pistol rounds are useless" guy

[mint light]

9x19 and 18 are dog

[open hedge]

But it pinged me

[robust robin]

?

[open hedge]

You must of misclicked the person

[silent hamlet]

Oh damn. I DID put the tag in my SC! Haha! Damn

[devout moon]

😂 i really hate that i started late in this wipe , trying to get the liquid from breach room on factory and keep running into 2-3 man teams heavily geared fml

[robust robin]

This has no reply ?

[tame shard]

first time playing on us servers why is this so nice

[open hedge]

Pistol rounds are usable in the shrimp and 57

Usp works too

Other than that

Not good

[silent hamlet]

So what can I do with a dogtag? Sell it? Trade it?

[robust robin]

Like i said

[orchid salmon]

Barter trades, some quests require them, sell to therapist for profit 👍🏻 Check wiki!

[robust robin]

Needed for tasks and barters

[devout moon]

sell to therapist but you need a few for quests and you can trade for items in some cases

[silent hamlet]

Nice

[open hedge]

If you add someone you kill it’s a 50/50 of being insulted or complimented in America

People can be very angry

[tame shard]

yeah i was pretty sure im gonna get shit talked

[open hedge]

Yeah either way it’s pretty funny

I like to jumpscare people in this game by jumping off tall things and killing the person as I fall and the responses are usually pretty good

It’s easy on factory to fall from the sky and kill them

[tame shard]

yeah i like eu server because of low ping obviously but communication is almost completely absent

[open hedge]

I’ve noticed that too

[tame shard]

in america they at least talk a bit

[open hedge]

I feel like VoIP is more common in the us

It’s become less popular tho

People went silent

[tame shard]

sad

[real agate]

Well in the US 98% of you speak English. Here in Europe its not uncommon to have people speaking 4 or 5 languages in a single raid which doesnt help the voip

[urban wolf]

I like eu servers cuz not many people on lighthouse at night, but i get liek 145-180 ping

And when you talk with them in voip

Theyre nice

[open hedge]

Rats are nice to run into because they will usually team up

Or just let you live

But I still don’t like them

Pretend to be nice but then kill them

[urban wolf]

Thats a rat move

[open hedge]

Is it? Teaming is a rat move

[urban wolf]

I was being a rat on reserve with a nice tt 33 and we both exchanged bullets, he was hurt and so was i

Then he said whags your plan

I said kill raiders

He said ok lets do it together

[shadow lynx]

any tips on guns and ammo for lvl 11 no flea yet

[urban wolf]

Rogues and raiders

They give u top tier ammo

Tegardless of ur lefel

Level

[open hedge]

Being able to farm raiders as a scav is a good way to get good guns quickly as a low level

[shadow lynx]

prob is killing them i guess

[open hedge]

K buildings and bunker are the optimal places

[shadow lynx]

cool

i was told ump wuth match fmj but idk

[open hedge]

That works

But raider guns have good ammo

Sometimes good attachments

[shadow lynx]

gotta go for flesh with the ump right

[open hedge]

Aim for head with raiders

[shadow lynx]

cool

[open hedge]

They are hard to leg due to increased health

[shadow lynx]

i try but then i find other pmc down there and they just bop me lol

but thats just tarkov i guess

[open hedge]

As I said do it as a scav

Less likely to die

[shadow lynx]

ok

dont really lose much if i die too

[open hedge]

They have to be spawned manually

K buildings are spawned by the hermatic switch

[shadow lynx]

okay

[open hedge]

Bunker are spawned by bunker power

[shadow lynx]

cool i kind of was thinking that

[buoyant swift]

So like…are wipes random or is it like semi-annual?

[open hedge]

Semi annual

[buoyant swift]

Okay cool

Thankies

[urban wolf]

Do it at night

Its the same under there but less pmc

[silent hamlet]

When will the next wipe happen?

[robust robin]

Probably summer

[stable canopy]

best location to kills scavs for task?

[open hedge]

Likely summer

[whole thistle]

What task?

[stable canopy]

what do you mean? why would you need more information? i just asked where to kill scavs. i need to headshot 5 of them
any location

[sleek briar]

How dare you question him?!

[whole thistle]

Because some tasks require specific ranges or specify locations lmao
If you need to kill scavs literally anywhere then go customs or factory imo

If it's a daily task it'll say what location in the top right, most aren't global

[silent hamlet]

For sniping, can you hold your breath? Or any ways to make it more stable?

[merry swift]

Yea hold alt

Works on all weapons, not just snipers

[whole thistle]

Also reduces recoil ^

[silent hamlet]

Nice!

[bold kernel]

is the ZSh-1-2M_helmet any good?

[whole thistle]

Only with the face shield

It's only really for shotguns and pst

[bold kernel]

so on factory its ok

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[merry swift]

The biggest downside is not hearing a thing. But you can use a cheap faceshield with it so its not bad for factory indeed if you can live without the audio

Wouldnt recommend using it anywhere else tho

[silent hamlet]

Why are all the item that Fence sells always sold out?

[merry swift]

He only sells what players sell to him, he has no stock of his own

[silent hamlet]

Oh...

[merry swift]

So 99% of it is garbage, the few good things he might have will sell fast

[silent hamlet]

When does durability make a weapon no longer worth using? 50%?

[merry swift]

90

[silent hamlet]

Damn really?!

[merry swift]

Below 90 you get malfunctions and the accuracy suffers

Theres not really a weapon that doesnt suffer from one or both of those

[silent hamlet]

So is it better to use a lower tier weapon at 100 than a higher one at say 66?

[bold kernel]

What would be the easiest way to level up charisma

[shell kindle]

I’ve found it’s the worst with shotguns

[merry swift]

Yea for sure, just dont use anything below 90 period. Its not worth it

[silent hamlet]

Damn okay. I've been doing it wrong then.

[merry swift]

You can gamble on shortranged maps like factory or shoreline resort

[silent hamlet]

So basically like repair it every raid, then sell it at 90??

[merry swift]

Short range the accuracy malus doesnt matter really and you basically roll the dice on your gun not jamming

[merry swift]

I buy em at 100, repair once they drop below 95

[bold kernel]

guys im about to do chemical part 4, but hesitating on who i should hand it in to

[merry swift]

Every time you repair you lose a little maximum durability so its not a great idea to repair every single raid

[silent hamlet]

Thank you. I'll start doing this.

[merry swift]

Therapist gives you the most value in rewards, but skier unlocks a (shitty) followup quest with his.

If you dont have EoD consider the rep, skier will ask for 1m roubles while therapist just requires some cheapish keys

[silent hamlet]

Parts dont lose durability, right? So if you have some good parts you can strip the weapon and attach them to a new one?

[merry swift]

Prapor asks for grenades iirc

[merry swift]

Yup the receiver takes the durability hits

[devout moon]

im about to do it also , do you want to double up ?

[silent hamlet]

Awesome

[real agate]

just casual helmet headset and a beanie for good measure

[median niche]

why is it that sometimes I can't reload? it says I need ammo, but I have a mag in my backpack, and if I manually take the mag out and swap it it works, but I can't press r to reload

[merry swift]

A nice trick is that some traders will sell receivers for a fraction of the price of the full gun. You could take a scav gun, replace the receiver and its good as new

[rigid light]

you need a mag in your tactical rig

[median niche]

ooooooh

[rigid light]

or pockets, if it's small enough

[median niche]

so it wont work from backpack

damn makes sense just didnt think that

[rigid light]

only if you do it through inventory

also, you can actually store a weapon in your rig and bind it to a number

[merry swift]

The classic western approach

Jacket full of pistols

[rigid light]

whipping out your hidden mp7 and extending the stock gives the feeling of power

also, mp7 with 20 round magazine and unfolded stock is 3x1, so you can store it unfolded

[bold kernel]

You can bind certain grenade types too if you need to only pull out a certain type of grenade

[rigid light]

in a big enough rig of course

[silent hamlet]

Thats a good tip.

[rigid light]

i need ibuprofen painkillers, analgin ain't strong enough

where can i find it

[silent hamlet]

@merry swift Im looking at a Mosin and it looks like the durability is the magainze?! Because there is no receiver and the stock doesnt have durability?

[merry swift]

Fir or just any?

[rigid light]

any it's gonna sit in my secure container anyway

[merry swift]

Yea some guns this trick wont work

[shell kindle]

Woods

[merry swift]

Just buy on flea mate theyre not expensive

15 uses

[silent hamlet]

Okay - but I can still get a new Mosin and stick parts on it, eh?

[shell kindle]

Or buy yeah

[merry swift]

Yup

Look carefully which one you get. The infantry version is cheaper but can barely be modded

[bold kernel]

I bought a new mosin to slap all the good parts on from a scav mosin I brought in once, and it's been returned to me via insurance a dozen times already 😂

[rigid light]

is mosin a good sniper

i need to kill people on woods with irons from 50 meters

[silent hamlet]

Oh bummer. I need way more batteries for a mosin 😄

[fervent turret]

mosin ergo is doodoo

[bold kernel]

No, not really, but it's pretty cheap

[fervent turret]

vpo-215 with ap-m tho

[silent hamlet]

There arent really many guns you can buy for cash at lvl I, eh?

[shell kindle]

Nope

[bold kernel]

I'd use the vpo with ap-m as well over the mosin

[shell kindle]

Sks is fine too, cheap and you don’t have to buy mags

[merry swift]

Sure, but not the best IMO

Sv-98 is better in the same caliber

[rigid light]

shit

[merry swift]

Vpo is the real budget sniper for these midrange distances but it kinda sucks for long ranges because 366 drops like a brick

[rigid light]

i sold all the cigs i'd use for barter

[primal breach]

can my friend kill scavs while im doing this task?

so he kills them for me

[silent hamlet]

All the VPO- are semi automatic?

[rigid light]

yes

if you mean the weird AKs

[bold kernel]

The gornostay is bolt action tho

[edgy plover]

Yea, just make sure you don't kill any, even after you've planted all the items. You can die and still complete it, but killing scavs even post-completion fails it

[silent hamlet]

How does OP-SKS compare to standard SKS?

[bold kernel]

I know you can craft an AKM if you have the vpo + multitool + an AKM compensator

[whole thistle]

It has a sight mount

[edgy plover]

Primary difference is the degree you can modify them. OP-SKS has a dovetail mount by default and has more options for customization. If using stock irons, there's pretty much no difference

[real agate]

how do i take half of a stack 😂

[silent hamlet]

Thank you

[whole thistle]

Ctrl drag

[edgy plover]

hold cntrl and drag

[real agate]

Thanks

[primal breach]

even after i press complete on the task and get my rewards? what?

[whole thistle]

While you're still in raid bruu

[edgy plover]

After you turn it in you're good to go

[primal breach]

yeah of course

[shell kindle]

You can never kill scavs on customs again

[primal breach]

lmao

[bold kernel]

You will be forever afraid of Reshala and his boys

[merry swift]

Actually if you get out of raid, enter a new one and kill a scav you will still fail it

The quest only ends when you click complete

[whole thistle]

If you don't hand it in for some reason lol

[merry swift]

So be sure not to forget to hand it in

[merry swift]

Shit you wouldnt be the first. I forget to hand in quests all the time

[primal breach]

lets goo

lvl 2 btc farm in 15 mins

[bold kernel]

Does increase btc farm level just let you put more gpu’s in it?

[fervent turret]

yup

[torn matrix]

WHAT CAN I SELL?

[bold kernel]

Those nuts and bolts go for a pretty nice amount 🤤

[whole thistle]

Def sell the Bitcoin

[open hedge]

Sell the Bitcoin to me for free

[whole thistle]

They're relatively high rn

Also all your random matches and lighters and stuff

[torn matrix]

ive had three dailies for matches and lightes. so was thinking keep 2 of each

[whole thistle]

Bloodsets and med piles unless you need them something

[whole thistle]

You could, they're completely random though

[silent hamlet]

I know the IDEA rig doesnt have the most slots, but you have to admint it looks the coolest

[whole thistle]

Naw it's ugly

Also really bright

[torn matrix]

azimut multi cam is king

[silent hamlet]

Just playin' 😄

[whole thistle]

This is tarkov you're not allowed to have fun

[edgy plover]

Just about everything could be used for a daily, so if you're factoring that in you might as well horde some of everything. I wouldn't worry too much about random item dailies, go to https://tarkov-market.com/ and use it to check prices (traders vs flea) and use the wiki link to check for hideout/quest/barter requirements that you might care about

[silent hamlet]

Understood.

[torn matrix]

Thats what ive been doing so far.

[worn sedge]

hello, does this game have issues in win 11? i just got it installed and it won't open, no error codes given, it acts likes its gonna start and then goes back to the launcher

[open hedge]

Lots of games don’t like windows 11

Ask #community-support

They know a lot about this

[sleek briar]

Are green batteries super rare now or something? use to be fairly common in previous wipe

[edgy plover]

Then maybe just lower your standards for what's worth holding onto, a lot of that stuff isn't really worth the space and can be re-bought whenever you end up needing them

[open hedge]

Very rare now

[sleek briar]

Guess I need to get them off the flea for that hideout playstation

[open hedge]

Indeed

Hideout should have a ps2 emulator so you can do shit in your hideout after rest space 3

[remote kettle]

You can craft them

[sleek briar]

Yeah but the ingredients are rare enough and expensive enough to not be worth it

[fringe sedge]

is there anything that you keep on wipe

or is it literally everything

[sleek briar]

Your map knowledge and personal experience

[edgy plover]

Its as if you just bought the game, account-wise. So you'll have the starting gear for whatever edition you own. Occasionally they don't wipe weapon presets, but don't expect that to be routine

[fringe sedge]

oh ok

[open hedge]

Noo my precious weapon presets

[tropic kettle]

Guys I need help. I need to ask a few questions on the editions of Escape from tarkov

[open hedge]

Then do

Don’t ask to ask

🥱

[fringe sedge]

I thought id atleast keep my loyalty level idk rip

[open hedge]

Why would you

It’s a wipe

As in wipe the slate clean

[mint light]

if this game didnt wipe it would suck ass

[tropic kettle]

ok I need to ask this very important one, is it true that if I pay for the standard edition, later on when I want to get the edge of darkness edition will I need to pay the same price for both, or will I get the two at a discounted price?

[open hedge]

Indeed

[mint light]

discounted

[edgy plover]

You don't get two games, you upgrade the edition of the game you bought

[wide sedge]

I have the standard

[mint light]

if u buy the standard. eod drops to 100$ if u buy prepare for escape its drops to 40$

[open hedge]

It Will stay the same total price so if you spend $50 and not $150 when you buy the $150 it will only be $100

[wide sedge]

I can uprade for the discounted price

[tropic kettle]

no, I know, i just wanted to know if I get a discount for upgrading it

[mint light]

u do

[edgy plover]

You have to pay tax twice, but otherwise, you just pay the difference between the two editions

[tropic kettle]

ty

[mint light]

if u buy the 100 dollar version the escape from darkness is 40

[mint light]

have fun

[tropic kettle]

u 2

[nova sentinel]

wat is difference bwteen sniper and infantry mosin

[fervent turret]

sniper can get sight attachments but infantry cannot

[sterile minnow]

Mods

[nova sentinel]

ok ty

[merry swift]

The rail still goes on infantry iirc

[primal breach]

why is rip so cheap lmaao

[whole thistle]

Time to shred

[primal breach]

with the vector fire rate you can kill in less than a second

its a 4 shot kill to the legs

[open hedge]

This is why factory is a disaster

[whole thistle]

5 since it's 102 damage

[torn matrix]

can you still do inventory check without keys?

[primal breach]

no

[primal breach]

thats 9mm

.45 is 137

[whole thistle]

Aw shit

[primal breach]

thus its 4 shots

[silent hamlet]

What button checks magazine rounds remaining?

[mint light]

alt t

it also tells u ur ammo type

[silent hamlet]

Nice

[mint light]

but u cant get an actual number

u get an estimate

[whole thistle]

With max mag drills you can

But that's impossible to get

[mint light]

yeah he is also like lvl 4 sooo

[mint light]

why?

[jagged laurel]

I’m lvl 48 mag drill

[whole thistle]

You have to load and unload like 30000 rounds from magazines lmao

[whole thistle]

Jesus

[jagged laurel]

Yeah I uhhh have a addiction

[mint light]

it says the elite checks ur mag in ur inventory

[whole thistle]

Yeah when you reload it tells you the exact number left

[mint light]

it dont even say that tho

is the wiki just not good at tellin da truth

[whole thistle]

Your mag re enters you inventory when you reload

It counts

[mint light]

true true true

[rigid light]

game what the fuck

[mint light]

congrats ur unkillable!!!

[split isle]

i just shot a pmc to the face and he didint die, what gives?

[rigid light]

skill issue

[whole thistle]

Long range?

[rigid light]

but for real might be desync

[split isle]

ah, probably not good enough gaming chair

[mint light]

either lag

[split isle]

he was 1 m away

[mint light]

helmet

helmet

lag and or helmet

[split isle]

he had helmet but i specifically aimed for the face

[mint light]

ok did u miss

[whole thistle]

Either missed or shit servers

[mint light]

and hit the helmet

[split isle]

o he was too close , i couldnt miss

[mint light]

this game has desync issues sometimes so u can also just lag

[split isle]

should i use shotgun or auto gun?

[whole thistle]

They're both good

[mint light]

stop the cap

[whole thistle]

Shotguns are a lot cheaper than good full auto guns tho

[mint light]

shotguns suck ass at his lvl cuz he is only packing 7mm

[whole thistle]

6.5 and 7 are still good for turning people's heads into dust

[mint light]

i hate buck

flechette supreme

[merry swift]

Ricochet?

[split isle]

i need help with a wood introduction quest, but woods have way to many snipers

[split isle]

doubt so

[mint light]

sit in. bush until near end raid then go

[split isle]

ok

[mint light]

if u know ur wy

way

[split isle]

i have compass

[mint light]

and buddies help ofc

[split isle]

what map spawns scavs with helmet? i wanna practice offlie

[whole thistle]

Scavs spawn with the same stuff everywhere

[mint light]

can u make them have good gear in offline?

[whole thistle]

They just have a loot pool

[jagged laurel]

Go factory

Have them as impossible

[whole thistle]

I think difficulty might do that

[jagged laurel]

And practice against tagilla

If you want to fight helmets

[split isle]

okay

[next moth]

Im not a beginner but i need help knowing money runs. 3rd wipe

Do night raids, less players means higher chance it not being looted

[rigid light]

there are at least 4 hideout modules i can't do since i don't have mechanic LL2

[rigid light]

it's late i can't be bothered to count

[bold kernel]

Anyone know what the Thermal site is where people show up and they're red and everything else is black and white? It was a gun site

[edgy plover]

FLIR, the red color only works out to a certain range

[rigid light]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Weapon_mods#Thermal_scopes

maybe one fits the description

[bold kernel]

I can't find any sites on there

[rigid light]

it's this one
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/FLIR_RS-32_2.25-9x_35mm_60Hz_thermal_riflescope

[rigid light]

what armor is that face shield

[finite badge]

I'll show you when I deploy

tho it lvl 3

[jagged laurel]

Tier 3

[rigid light]

face shields look so cool

[split isle]

ok tested npcs with helmets and had no problems one tapping them with pistol, but i noticed if i aim a bit higher near the helmet, shot doesnt kill them, maybe helmets have hitboxes bigger than it seems

[mint light]

isnt that face shield actually dick

[rigid light]

you might be hitting them on the top of the head

[split isle]

i always try to shoot them to their face

[next moth]

The blaster.

[mint light]

heater

[next moth]

It actually looks kinda sick

[wispy flint]

any tips on the factory part of delivery of the past

[next moth]

Go with a freind

friend

[wispy flint]

problem with that is the only friend that plays tarkov is new and im trying to teach him

[next moth]

Im about to go factory

[finite badge]

I have determined that customs is shit

[next moth]

Then your determination skills are ass.

[jagged laurel]

They do

There are 5 hit boxes head ears, head eyes? Head jaw, head top of head, and head nape.

[next moth]

There is also lower nape or something like that (new to this wipe)

[jagged laurel]

Yeah head nape

[mint light]

customs is pog

[next moth]

Its lower than nape

Yeah its called lower nape

[mint light]

lower nape is almost ur fucking neck

or i suppose it is ur neck

[tacit ferry]

zapwag i found a gpu and i got out with it so im just a little poor now

[finite badge]

nope

[shell kindle]

Did bunker part 2 and some random dude threw a ton of grenades at me at white bishop

[whole thistle]

Huge

[shell kindle]

Luckily he left

Whew

[mint light]

me and zapwag should edate

[tacit ferry]

im also slowing starting to not give a shit about my loot

[rigid light]

"why is my character so slow?"

that might be because i have a pilgrim and 3 guns with me

why am i even carrying around a TT it's not even brand new

[mint light]

tt meta

[fleet reef]

is the event over? with tagilla in interchange

[rigid light]

7.62 x 25 is only good when shot in rapid succession

[fleet reef]

or is it just daytime

[whole thistle]

Definitely

[mint light]

right now 😡

[tacit ferry]

i might buy a flir

Heya guys! Would someone please help me learn how to fight on tarkov? Or send me some tips/tricks about the combat?
I saw a video on "peekers advantage" and it definitely helped a little.
I'm new this wipe, started the day the wipe came out- and I'm still level 14 c':

These boys are great for beginners

[wispy flint]

does anyone else lose their ,,22 data folder,, after dying in factory

[sterile minnow]

Task item im guessing?

[split isle]

shoot either at the face or legs if enemy has armor vest, if he has helmet with or without armor mask, shoot legs

[honest plume]

im a level 14 and just found a moonshine on a scav run.... i should just old it till i get the flea right?

[wispy flint]

yh the one on delivery form the past

[honest plume]

hold*

[sterile minnow]

Yeaah you gotta go back and get it again

Really really annoying ass task

[mint light]

yes

is like 300 ish

k

[honest plume]

alright thank you

[wispy flint]

oh i hate that cuz i cant bare factory!

[sterile minnow]

Makes two of us, but you could try night time and hide in a corner

Worked for me, Thankfully fairly dead lobby

[honest plume]

@wispy flint im not probably the best person to help, but i just had to do that task the other day if you need someone to help you

[wispy flint]

every time i try to go night time i get killed by the one nasty guy in a shadow

[sterile minnow]

That does make things a little difficult

[honest plume]

where ever you spawn in factory dont move for a couple minutes and let everyone kill each other then make a mad dash for the room

[sterile minnow]

Pretty much

Only thing on night time is you can have cultists spawn

But its like 3% chance so very rare

[light mesa]

cant find ophthalmoscope. been grinding woods usec camp. no luck. any tips?

[coarse valley]

which mdr is better?

ignoring the supressor and scope

[mint light]

identical

jk

762

[coarse valley]

[mint light]

yeah its better

[coarse valley]

[mint light]

762x51 is great

[sterile minnow]

Usec and emercom

Or shoreline resort

[shadow bloom]

[sterile minnow]

I wish i could say but I dont play shoreline much

But emercom on woods, check the shelf by red container

[wispy flint]

[bold kernel]

whats the store called on map?

[jagged laurel]

Emercom

Or ultra med

[rigid wind]

whats the best kedr?

[open hedge]

Ultra mid

[rigid wind]

ì meant best pp 91

[open hedge]

The one with 1000rpm instead of 900

[rigid light]

the game has a 6th sense for when i want to do a mission and spawns me on the opposite side of the map

[open hedge]

I don’t remember which variant

[rigid wind]

the klin pp9

[open hedge]

Pp91 is the chadliest of budget guns

[edgy plover]

I swear to god it's a feature, it's uncanny

[open hedge]

It’s not a feature it’s a curse

[copper sphinx]

[open hedge]

Keeps the cowards from wining as easy

Gotta do something

[copper sphinx]

[open hedge]

Shotguns are more than enough

[mint light]

[sleek pollen]

[open hedge]

Hell I’ve gotten a kill with the ancient axe 2 times last wipe

[slate quest]

HURRY IS E313 SAN GOOD

BP

[open hedge]

Mid

[cloud pelican]

is the air filtration unit worth it? Or still broken...

[urban wolf]

Sell

[edgy plover]

If you plan on trying to elite some skills, then it's worth it. Otherwise, just for casual play, not very worth imo. It's not broken though

[open hedge]

It now does 40% instead of the 100%

[primal breach]

life = 0

[open hedge]

Still chadly tho

[edgy plover]

Ash-12 🍻

[silent hamlet]

As a PMC, Im okay to kill anyone? Raiders are not friendly, right?

[mint light]

kill everyone and anyone

[fresh brook]

how do you spawn raiders on reserve?

[silent hamlet]

And as a Scav - only other scavs are friendly. Unless they shoot at me first?

If they shoot first I can blast them without penalty?

[sleek pollen]

if they hit you then yes

but if they shoot at you and miss if you shoot back you will be penalized

[sacred bay]

Bruv where do you get em mre packs?

[silent hamlet]

Alright good to know

[cloud pelican]

so it decreases your lvl up speed???

[open hedge]

No

It used to double

Not it only boosts by 40%

Not 100%

Use your problem solving skills man

Nobody would make something that makes the game harder

[sacred bay]

Any1 know?

Need 3 of em but can't find any. Heard scav bodies are good but can't say i agree

Ight bet, cheers mate

[slate quest]

[tacit ferry]

[quasi harbor]

alr

[vagrant cargo]

are labs raiders better than labs ones

[honest plume]

@quasi harbor 6k to therapist 8k on the flea

[gusty nymph]

Okay so is there a way to increase a weapon's durability?

[slate quest]

repair

[gusty nymph]

I mean from scav runs

[honest plume]

right click and repair

[gusty nymph]

Alright I'll check that out.

[open hedge]

You can’t repair scav guns past 40-60 dura

Hence why scav guns are shit

They are good if it’s all you have but if you can get a full dura gun then do

Half dura jams a lot more and has significantly worse accuracy

[vagrant cargo]

labs raiders better or no ?

[gusty nymph]

okay thanks

[vagrant cargo]

reserve raider dumb I kill ez

lab raiders smart op

[open hedge]

Raiders have 90 dura usually

[vagrant cargo]

they kill me ez

[open hedge]

Labs raiders are harder I think

[vagrant cargo]

I’m asking if there’s an ai difference yeah

Fuck me

They’re so stupid op on labs

[open hedge]

Labs raider at least seem much snappier

Faster better aim

While raiders on reserve only hit like 70% of shots

Labs hit like 90% from what I’ve experienced

[vagrant cargo]

And labs raiders shoot as soon as they see you

Which is biggest difference

[open hedge]

Yeah

[slate quest]

oh my fucking god a pomc shot at me and i though it was a scav so i shot the scav instead

[tacit ferry]

killed a guy

1 so far

[slate quest]
