[median raven]

with a 1x

even on scav

[glacial moss]

i think there isnt even a 3times

[median raven]

yeah

i mean what do people run with mpx?

[sterile minnow]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Monstrum_Compact_prism_scope_2x32

[glacial moss]

monstr is 2times but so freaking good

[sterile minnow]

x2 for ya

[median raven]

alr tyty

[glacial moss]

i run that shit on every freakin gun

[glacial moss]

ap 6.3 iirc, didnt realy use it lately

[sterile minnow]

how is it? havent actually ran it before tbh

[glacial moss]

and 7n1

[slate quest]

i dont because i hate red dots

i would rather use iron sights fr

[sterile minnow]

just wouldnt want to see anyone put a fucking vudu on an mp7

[glacial moss]

lasergun, imagine a slower vector with ar feeling

[glacial moss]

yeah

[sterile minnow]

[glacial moss]

and if use a lser

[sterile minnow]

I can get down w that

[glacial moss]

dont know how good it is this wipe though

[median raven]

available at pk3?

[sterile minnow]

I usually run razor or vudu personally, but on non-sub machine guns

[strong pewter]

is the trading offer limit 2 always?

[sterile minnow]

wouldnt hurt with something inbetween

[glacial moss]

u can get to 3 but u need super high fence karma

[strong pewter]

okay

[fluid pine]

@median raven you want to do a run?

[glacial moss]

lvl 2

silenced on lvl3

id recommend runnning that

[median raven]

u mean the gun or ammo

[glacial moss]

gun

[median raven]

is the ammo as well or is that from mechanic

cause my mechanic do be lvl 2

pk is 3 ;-;

[glacial moss]

uh actually

im not ingame rn but im not even sure if u can buy 6.3 ap

oh daym....

[median raven]

in a scav rn, i might run a few solos will lyk tho

[glacial moss]

wiki doesnt say u can or cant

[median raven]

thanks for the offer man

[median raven]

yeah i saw that 2

ill look

[glacial moss]

i mean u can always use it for legmeta but thats not good on midrange

sorry man i realy didnt know

without ap 6.3 the gun is kinda useless in this time of the wipe

[median raven]

all good man

[sterile minnow]

anyone got some pointers to how many gpus I could get for a green card / dorms 314 marked?

[glacial moss]

uh

[slate quest]

HOLY FUCKCING SHIT

[median raven]

barter kek

[sterile minnow]

no shit lmao

[glacial moss]

early wipe it was like 10 gpu but not sure

[median raven]

get lucky

open every jacket

[glacial moss]

rightclick it and press "search required" and look at what people offer for it

[slate quest]

I JUST GOT THE SHIT SCARED OUT OF ME BY SOPME RANDOIM CUCK WITH A FLASHBANG

[sterile minnow]

gpus is like 400-500k rn, most barters are 800k-ish

[median raven]

on dorms

multiple times

[glacial moss]

uh, as i said, look what people offer for it

[glacial moss]

dorms jackets are op af ngl, but best jacket for some reason are the two on office in factory

i swear to god

[sterile minnow]

im an idiot, nobody saw this

[glacial moss]

xD

i did

but u noticed ig

[sterile minnow]

NO U DID NOT.

I realized it once I sent it

been a long day, lets call it that

[median raven]

i found dorm marked on lighthouse armored train area

in a jacket kek

[silent hamlet]

Anyone else just get server connection lost ?

[glacial moss]

@median raven if youre okay to go outside of the domain of smg, i always recommend either rpk-16 or akm/akmn. Especially the latter, the calliber is basicly sniper ammo so u can totally play it with vudu. Could be difficult to get 7.62 BP but even PS slaps. rpk-16 is just a 5.45 base with good base stats, and if u can buy BT u can easily run it

latewipe makes it hard with the ammo for anything below trader max

except if ur running mp7 or p90

[bold kernel]

how do i get a sicc case

[sterile minnow]

jaeger barter

[median raven]

oh ye i def not a smg andy just was a good budget gun mentioned

but i have a few stacks of bp but its not that much

so i prob have to use ps

[slate quest]

this desync is really the only thing killing me 😭

[glacial moss]

i feel you

[fluid pine]

I was telling him to use .366.. it can pierce literally any armor in the game and is cheap and available

[glacial moss]

try it out, flesh and armor dmg is good, should still be usable, but not the best

what decent ammo can u buy on ur lvl except of fmj sx, pp190 and flechette?

im not ingame rn xD

[glacial moss]

thats true aswell

[median raven]

uh

im not sure

[glacial moss]

not a statbeast though so you should get used to hipfiring for cqc

[glacial moss]

what paratus said is a pretty good idea btw

[median raven]

my best traders are lvl prapor, therapist pk thats pretty much all i can buy

[median raven]

ok

bet

[glacial moss]

i have a friend that is slapping with that shit on labs

realy worth a try aswell

[fluid pine]

.366 is only good short to medium range. It's not accurate and kicks like crazy, but it hits HARD. Actually the gun in real life is considered a shotgun beause it has a smooth bore (not rifled)

[glacial moss]

lol

[naive carbon]

Whats the easiest map to learn as a complete newbie/

[glacial moss]

in the end, what is also pretty good if were going into semi auto is anything that can shoot M80, it pens class 4, doesnt drop fast, the weapons are reliable and accurate

m1a or sr25, even hunter, ul be tapping chads with that aswell

[slate quest]

what teh fuck is this sight

[glacial moss]

sight for broke people and scavs

[fluid pine]

this stuff here is the shit if you can buy some

[sterile minnow]

rb-mp22 worth anything or used for a task?

[glacial moss]

learn customs, pretty easy ro learn and ul be doing a lot of tasks there early

[median raven]

im lvl 26, i can get mechanic ll 3 if i got to 30 but all my quests are shoreline and reserve and shit...not comfortable witht hat yet

i do know lighthouse tho so

[glacial moss]

mil bat spawn

[median raven]

i might do those

[sterile minnow]

ah, so basically shit, tyty

[median raven]

i might try m80 guns

[glacial moss]

also loose loot, toolbox, woodbox and two weapon racks

[median raven]

cause its automatic

and decent ammo

[glacial moss]

its not, except of sa-58

[median raven]

oh shit fr

[glacial moss]

and sa is sadly terrible atm

[fluid pine]

When I started I did customs because it's small.. but I find woods the easiest to navigate.

[median raven]

aw whatever

but ive seen its still p good

the guns close range right?

[smoky moth]

Jaeger LL4

[naive carbon]

Sounds good, ty

[glacial moss]

u can go all ranges with sa-58, but the stats are trash, i think lowest recoil is like 80

can work with you

but there is defenitly better options

[astral gorge]

what happens if ur skull blacks out

[glacial moss]

if u get hit by anything u die

no matter what

or take any kind of dmg

[astral gorge]

gonna be peak if you whack ur head on the doorway

[glacial moss]

xD

[median raven]

hm

ic

[glacial moss]

id rather singletap spam with the semi auto guns

try SA out for urself though

its nearly as good as the semi auto versions on mid and long range and has the full auto option if u can handle it

[astral gorge]

maybe im just bad but this was my SA experience

https://medal.tv/games/escape-from-tarkov/clips/fasZ5g4sEucui/d1337fW8i1Sd?invite=cr-MSxxZ1MsOTUyODYyOCw

[glacial moss]

nope, thats SA for u this wipe

i mean its barely modded in ur clip but still

if ran it a bit, medicore success

best i ever did was with ak-74N fullmod, but i think everyone can fuck up people with that xD

[median raven]

wait

[astral gorge]

best i do is base mp133 and flechette

[median raven]

what about the rfb

[foggy stratus]

If u take any damage to your head*

[median raven]

Isnt that decent

[glacial moss]

for mid and longrange, kindof, cqc its shit

[median raven]

damn

[glacial moss]

its just a budget gun for shoreline and reserve i guess

but u can use it if its ur playstile

[median raven]

nah

i like cqc

i guess ill run with mp7 for now

[glacial moss]

defenitly cheaper than SR-25 or M1A

[median raven]

maybe use akmn

or akm

[glacial moss]

nothing wrong with that

[foggy stratus]

Mp7 with fmj smacks

[median raven]

ye

i got myself 1k rounds

[glacial moss]

well then go

xD

[median raven]

i wanna use a silencer but that 100k if i die

yikes

[glacial moss]

worth if u go all in and loot big

[fluid pine]

I find so many silencers.. I have dozens

[foggy stratus]

Or just do a scav run and make the money

[glacial moss]

yep

[median raven]

facts but i usually die cause this still my first wipe lmfao

[glacial moss]

scav is op

[median raven]

i do

sometimes its 1/2 my kit

sometimes its a lot

lh is a coinflip

[glacial moss]

dont be afraid to spend a little, better gear usually brings higher success

[foggy stratus]

^

[median raven]

im poor asf

barely 16 mil rn

[foggy stratus]

That isn’t really poor then

[glacial moss]

there is lows and highs but ul notice at some point that ul get the money back eventually anyways

[glacial moss]

cash or stash?

[median raven]

cash

[glacial moss]

DUDE

[foggy stratus]

Anything beyond 15 mill is just fuck you money

[median raven]

;-;

[glacial moss]

yeah

[median raven]

its not enough

its never enough

[glacial moss]

im on 1 mil and im running altyn, killer armor fullmod kits

[median raven]

KEKW

[glacial moss]

i have 1200 hrs and ur richer than i ever was

so spend a little xD

[median raven]

its just cuz

im not confident yet

lol

with pvp

[glacial moss]

ul get more confident with success

[foggy stratus]

Ahem yeeeeeah that’s all cute numbers

Lmfao

[glacial moss]

and that comes with gear

[glacial moss]

it is

i never realy saw a wipe through to the end

[fluid pine]

once you stop worrying about losing your good stuff you'll do better 🙂

[glacial moss]

always end around lvl 40

[foggy stratus]

^

[glacial moss]

yeah

[foggy stratus]

I used to, this is my first wipe going for kappa level requirement

[median raven]

alr bet

[glacial moss]

60 percent of people cant even handle agressive opponents

[median raven]

i mightve found myself someone to play w/ so that might help

[foggy stratus]

90% of the community don’t get over 20 mill tbf

[glacial moss]

yeah

i think 10mil was highest for me

[foggy stratus]

Srsly how

[glacial moss]

yeah, have fun

[foggy stratus]

It’s so easy to make money

[glacial moss]

i prolly hussle tasks too much

and play too casually

[median raven]

this is true

[glacial moss]

also never got a bitcoin farm in 4 wipes xD

[median raven]

if i lighthouse scaved the whole day i would be up 4 mil prob

[glacial moss]

and i always spend all the money

[foggy stratus]

if ur spending all ur money ur not surviving enough

[glacial moss]

i have 45%sr with 5.0kd

[foggy stratus]

yeah thats why

45%

[glacial moss]

is that too low?

my rich friends are usually at like 30

[sterile minnow]

nobody actually cares about sr

[fluid pine]

just sell everything you find on the market.. once you get an idea of what sells well you make tons. For exampel I used to throw away sugar thinking it was cheap stuff.. but no.

[foggy stratus]

well for one im at 62% and have 100 mill consistently

[glacial moss]

ye

[glacial moss]

welp ur one of that 10% xD

anyways gtg

[median raven]

ye ty for help

[glacial moss]

np, im happy that i was able too

can at least try making someone a better player than i am hahaha

[median raven]

im looking at mp7 til i get better at cqc

then move on to akm

ye haha ty

Im a slow learner

its like that for me in all games

started silver in val grinded my ass up to dia

[arctic zealot]

So true. I play much better when i have gear on than on junk runs

[median raven]

i assume thisll be the same

[foggy stratus]

diamonds easy af in valorant

it used to be way harder

[median raven]

not for me

im an avg pleb

[foggy stratus]

i mean i also had a cs background so that prob helps

[slate quest]

I LOVE HAVING TO GO TO OUTSKIRTS AND THERE BEING 6 SCAVS

WHAT TEH FUCk

[foggy stratus]

hit ur shots then

[slate quest]

THIS IS ALL I GOT OUT WITH

[median raven]

ye i had no background

[foggy stratus]

makes sense then

[slate quest]

I KILLED 3

I GOT FUCKING AMBUSHED

time to go to factory and take out my anger on innocent hatchlings

[sterile minnow]

let them do their toolset repairs first

[astral gorge]

is the ASH-12 any good

[proper pond]

what ammo shoudl i but into a mcx .300 black

i need like 2 good ones

[arctic zealot]

yes

[astral gorge]

nice

[arctic zealot]

idk if its really accessible unless you have really high traders but if you can get ps12b ammo it is 1 tap to thorax for tier 4

[astral gorge]

got some

found an absolute goblin looting interchange with 8minutes left

[slate quest]

this any good

?

[astral gorge]

worth like 150K

[slate quest]

oh nice

are there any keys in here that are any good other than like marked and labs card

[arctic zealot]

Damn nice. Yeah that is like one of the best ammos in game. Only people wearing tier 6 are really safe from it

[rain wing]

will I lose fence rep if I shoot reshala?

and his guards

[arctic zealot]

When playing as a scav, yes

[rain wing]

they're not aggro'd

aight

[astral gorge]

if he shoots u first i dont think so

that might be wrong

[slate quest]

are you fucking kidding me im gonna die so fast

[astral gorge]

https://medal.tv/games/escape-from-tarkov/clips/fFjr5c4Pxw-TN/d1337B7S4Q2C?invite=cr-MSxnVFEsOTUyODYyOCw

im so confused as so what this

guy was doing with that*

[slate quest]

hide and seek

[arctic zealot]

Lmao

[rain wing]

man would be nice to put a bullet between his eyes without fucking my rep

[arctic zealot]

He probably big mad

[astral gorge]

he had some really nice stuff

[slate quest]

OF FUCKING COURSE ITS SOME RANDOM ASS PMC SITTING IN THE MIDDLE OF FACTORY 20 FUCKING MINUTES INOT THE RAID

[astral gorge]

f

[slate quest]

i hate factory rats

[astral gorge]

extract camper?

[slate quest]

YES

[astral gorge]

f

buy factory key if u can

makes things so much more viable

[slate quest]

I HAVE ONE

I GOTTEN LIKE 5 BUT I WAS SCAVING

I GOT AN SVDS AND LIKE TWO OTHER RESORT KEYS

are FAL's any good?

[rain wing]

is this worth it?

[rain wing]

too much recoil

[smoky moth]

y

[silver estuary]

For a weapon what shoots full auto sniper rounds its good

[smoky moth]

at least you dont got the purple shining large backpack

[silver estuary]

The pilgrim is best couch in game no hat

[slate quest]

HOLY SHIT IVE GOTTEN KILLED WITH LIKE 3 PILGRIMS

are these any good

[astral gorge]

dont think so

[open hedge]

I like them great budget option

Can do class 3 armor

Decent damage

Good range

Overall pretty good

Only ₽70

Obviously 50bmg slugs are better but they are also 3 times more expensive

If you’re poor use them

[silent hamlet]

is CAT tourniquet infinitely reusable??

[tacit ferry]

good scav?

[arctic zealot]

No its single use i think

[slate quest]

I FUCKIUNG HATE DESYNC

TWIO SHOTS TO THE DOME DIDNT EVEN COUNT

[astral gorge]

W209 is like 40k

[silent hamlet]

But its faster than esmarch... I see

[astral gorge]

nice gun tho

[arctic zealot]

Yea its speedy

[median raven]

once u unlock calok its just better in general

3 uses and 5k each

[astral gorge]

calok is god

[median raven]

true

[silent hamlet]

When I scav ammo on reserve it tends to be 5.56x39 ... is there somewhere I can scav good 762x39?

[sterile minnow]

woods last wipe, but it got nerfed to oblivion

best bet is probably raiders or rogues, hell even cultists if youre able

[median raven]

prob raiders ye

most rogues feel like they have m855

[silent hamlet]

Damn you can save a lot of space in your stash just by attaching all your weapon mods

[whole thistle]

boom

[pure talon]

[runic cloud]

[tough oyster]

[runic cloud]

hoping i aint die

[rain wing]

does turning off my lights save fuel?

[median raven]

can someone explain flechettes vs ap20s

and is flechette better in one way or?

[open hedge]

flechette is better up close ap20 at far

[median raven]

ahhh

i see

[open hedge]

scavs are annoying

[smoky moth]

nope

[austere storm]

how do i get tasks from peacekeeper

[smoky moth]

the only way to reduce fuel usage is turning it off, or getting Solar Panels

[open hedge]

do skier task friends from the west pt 2

[quaint matrix]

Can anyone help with some quests and some tips to get better at the game been playing for a lil while now and just stuck and have trust issues with random ppl on the game saying they will dont want to meet up in a raid a get shot just for my loot

[smoky moth]

#pvp-lfg

[rain wing]

aight

[sterile minnow]

wrong place guy

[quaint matrix]

ok I was confused on if I asked in there or in beginner's cause thats what I am still

I have a 110 hours but u cant tell im still having trouble with the shooting and angles part

[hazy veldt]

great for headshotting scavs at 150m

[silent hamlet]

I just threw anything on any weapon that fit because I’m running out of stash space.

Which of those reflex sights are the best?

HS401 H-2 SRS OP4? And whatever I have on the AKM

[hazy veldt]

Out of those, I think only the SRS is okay.

all the others have huge housings or other things that make them mediocre.

[foggy stratus]

SRS is arguably the new PK06 but with a slightly bigger outer border/housing imo

[dry juniper]

Is there more loot in offline raids?

like the spawns for items

[shell kindle]

i have like 5 headsets what should I do

what can i buy thats space efficent to store them

[nocturne wasp]

any pro want to carry me in interchange loot runs | interchange#6

[dusky geyser]

me waiting for M16 with the unremovable charging handle

[shell kindle]

thanks @pure talon

[raven condor]

anyone wanna carry me in interchange

[swift vapor]

Hey, im seriously thinking to buy the game, but i have a ryzen 3 3200g with 1x8gb ram and gtx 1650, do you think i can run it at least low settings?

[dusky geyser]

RAM is way too low for that I'd say

[foggy stratus]

It would be questionable. The game is a ram eater and heavily cpu dependent

[dusky geyser]

can't say on the CPU but the GPU should be fine

[pure talon]

hey, I started playing on 4770 with 770, was bad but playable, so you should be more than fine

but the ram is too low

you need 16gigs

that should be easy to fix tho

[swift vapor]

Yes

Well, thank you for the help

[pure talon]

consider getting 2x16 instead of 2x8

2x16 could be close in price to 1x8 for your system

[swift vapor]

Okok

[pure talon]

and cpu is far less important than gpu

gpu is fairly new, so with 32gigs you should be able to push that system for few more years

but 8gigs is bare minimum for windows even for "home use"

or should i say "office use"

[whole thistle]

T1 with sun mount is top tier

[swift vapor]

How many fps on average do you calculate if I play with 8 ram and the gtx 1650?

[pure talon]

it doesnt work like this

[foggy stratus]

Wish u were right but ur dead wrong with tarkov

[swift vapor]

ou

Sorry, idk so much about that

[pure talon]

just for reference, my current setup is 5900x with 3080, i have ~100fps with high settings, and while my gpu is at 90%+ usage, my cpu barely goes above 15%

[smoky moth]

i get like 40 fps on woods with the same gpu you have, but 16 gb ram

🗿

[foggy stratus]

If u knew anything about computers you’d know that means nothing

[pure talon]

it's not about tarkov, 90% of games works like that (source: former aaa games dev)

[foggy stratus]

90% of games aren’t open world with massive map scales being rendered either

[swift vapor]

in other words i'm screwed hdsdfasufhbasjf

[foggy stratus]

Aka all of the cpu and ram backbone

[pure talon]

alr, lol, i don't have time to argue with you cobra

[foggy stratus]

What? Am I making too much sense?

[smoky moth]

i swear every time i see cobra there's always an argument going on

[foggy stratus]

Arguing is fun

[pure talon]

i have no idea why people who have no clue what they're talking about comes here and talk nonsense to people who are asking for actual help

[pure talon]

be toxic somewhere else

[swift vapor]

:c

[foggy stratus]

I haven’t been toxic yet but k

U can argue without being toxic

[swift vapor]

dont fight :c

[foggy stratus]

Not fighting

Arguing

U can argue without being toxic

This dude is refusing to explain how I’m wrong

He’s saying I lack knowledge but isn’t explaining how

[foggy stratus]

Come on big man how am I wrong

Let’s have a bit of back and forth. Prove to me I’m wrong

Because a cpu at 15% and gpu at 90% is a balanced system. All that means is, your gpu is utilizing your CPU’s information to the fullest extent

[pure talon]

i blocked him x)

[swift vapor]

XD

[foggy stratus]

[hazy veldt]

Lowest setting yes, but it probably won't be very enjoyable.

[hazy veldt]

to be fair, it is 15% of all cores.
Tarkov and many games don't utilize that many cores well, so that is why 15% utilization might seem low, while in reality, the few cores the game uses, are used heavily.

[grand merlin]

How do i get out of reserve alive with this lmao

[foggy stratus]

Without paracord and red rebel? Wait till couple mins left in raid and book it to d2

[grand merlin]

I am sitting in d2 waiting for someone to flip power

Scared out of my fking mind

I had to leave a bunch cuz i was getting shot at

[hazy veldt]

Why? Only the PS12B is worth much?

[grand merlin]

Thiccest i have been in a while

[hazy veldt]

And you could stick that in your pouch?

[pure talon]

how many cores tarkov uses?

one

[hazy veldt]

😄

[grand merlin]

Half of one

[hazy veldt]

If it uses only one, then a 'newer' cpu with good IPC is even more important tbh.

[grand merlin]

I honestly think it uses a bit over one, but you will have to double check google

[foggy stratus]

This dude also thinks gpu is more important then a good cpu for tarkov btw. Refused to argue with me, see if u can get through to him

[grand merlin]

17m left in raod and noone has turned on d 2. ...... should i go for it??????

[foggy stratus]

Drop ur bag in a corner and go for it if anything, or take hermetic if u don’t want to risk it

[pure talon]

all you need to care for is the clock speed of a single core, that's why intels are better for gaming

[grand merlin]

I am buying a red after this lmao

[foggy stratus]

Don’t buy one, barter for it

[grand merlin]

I got plenty of rubles for one and everone wants blue cards

[foggy stratus]

Do the barter from jaeger. It’s cheaper

[hazy veldt]

In any case, hardware talk should go in #community-support, lets keep this for tarkov stuff :p

[grand merlin]

I don't have it yet only lvl 18

[austere storm]

[grand merlin]

I find em in pcs more

[pure talon]

[austere storm]

[grand merlin]

And i am out!

how do you get the icase and the sicc now that they are off of the flea?

[open hedge]

Tasks

[smoky moth]

Jaeger LL4 for Sicc Case

[open hedge]

Thicc weapons off prapor task

Thicc items of therapist task

[somber sparrow]

do you know which task?

[open hedge]

Only 4 more levels till I get my thicc items

[open hedge]

Private clinic and perfect mediator

[somber sparrow]

thanks.

[open hedge]

Perfect mediator need you to max all traders

Private Clinic requires you to beat all the healthcare privacy tasks

Then you turn in a ophthalmoloscope and a led x

Private olomuc

How do you type so badly

[open hedge]

Auto correct is as stupid as a disabled infant

I swear

[vagrant cargo]

Right

Autocorrect makes up words

[open hedge]

I only have this shot happen on mobile

Apple is so fucking dumb

Also I hate mobile keyboards

[vagrant cargo]

How unlucky must I be to only find actually good and geared players

In squads obviously

[open hedge]

I finished punisher 4 on a level 2 that was hiding from me in a bush

I felt bad

[vagrant cargo]

Damn

Still now you get the quest for bp ammo

So that’s a win

[open hedge]

He was hiding from me and I thought he was camping path to lighthouse

[vagrant cargo]

Who cares shoot a level 2 being scared shitless

He would’ve shot you if he could

[open hedge]

He didn’t

[vagrant cargo]

Why

[open hedge]

He was running

Hiding in a bush

I heard him

Mag dumped the bush

[vagrant cargo]

The first lvl 1 I saw after getting actually geared tried to murder me

He even blacked my arm

So naturally I murdered him

Felt good

Even stole his starter mp5

[reef matrix]

in lighthouse, as a usec, do all the rogues need to be cleared to enter the water treatment plant? or can i walk in safely? have alot of missions inside

[open hedge]

He had a lightly modded started m4 with a tv110 and m855a1

[vagrant cargo]

What

[open hedge]

Not sure how he got it

[vagrant cargo]

Why does every low level have insane gear now

[open hedge]

I have no idea

Magic I guess

[vagrant cargo]

It’s like they’re all running m855a1

[open hedge]

He also had gpnvgs

[vagrant cargo]

Where they getting it

[open hedge]

Somehow

[vagrant cargo]

Wtf

Bitch got boosted

[open hedge]

It was a night raid and he had meta armor but a shit gun

I thought he was a high level till after the raid

#beginners-assistance message

Citation up there

[vagrant cargo]

Gun is doodoo but full of good ammo

[open hedge]

Yeah he would’ve fucked me if he wasn’t hiding from me

Feels bad

I offered to return it but he turned it down

Not I all I need for punisher 5 is the 10 pmc kills in the Paca

[vagrant cargo]

Punisher 5 is easiest

[open hedge]

Yeah at least I can hold ammo

And not on shoreline

Factory time

[vagrant cargo]

just gotta not get hit first

sounds east

easy

[open hedge]

Yeah factory with a saiga 12 is how you do this real easy

[vagrant cargo]

Why do you insist on the saiga in every situation

[open hedge]

Plus a Paca is better than what most factory players bring

[open hedge]

Because it’s literally so fucking good

[vagrant cargo]

We don’t play the same factory man

[open hedge]

Saiga is my salvation

It’s never failed me

[vagrant cargo]

My factory has airframes, altyns, slicks ( which I like cause ez stomach) and the fragile lvl 5 armors

[open hedge]

I run into the whole spectrum between pistolings to slick chads

Majority class 3 and under

Flechette fucks them even if they are in class 4

Even 5

1 shot for 4

3 for 5

[vagrant cargo]

It fucks up anyone provided you can hit ur shots

[open hedge]

Strategy

[vagrant cargo]

It’s 3 shots max to zero any armor

[open hedge]

Strategy is more important than aim

🥱

Outsmart not out shoot

Factory players are stupid

50 iq max

[foggy stratus]

Night time factory is where all the IQ players are

[open hedge]

Yeah

Day factory is a bunch of shitters

Actually super easy

I profit about 100k every factory raid just from guns I collect

Factory most profitable map conformed

[grand merlin]

does anyone know were there is a tarcola high spawn rate? I just need 1 for a fence task. I might have been involved with some scav on scav violence....

[open hedge]

Any food spawn

Woods has a lot

[grand merlin]

god i hate woods. If its any food spawn i will just go on reserve again

[open hedge]

You can they don’t spawn in interchange often because tarkola is pretty rare so

[grand merlin]

been on customs all week

[open hedge]

But goshan In interchange is the best you can get for it

Should maybe get 1 every other raid

Persistence friend

Believe in yourself and you will get it

[grand merlin]

ya i need 3 i got myself 2 just 1 left and its been cancer

[open hedge]

Goshan friend

[grand merlin]

had to get a wiskey with them and jesus that was cancer on customs to get

[open hedge]

Back left of goshan specifically

[grand merlin]

what map is goshan?

[open hedge]

Whisky is the valuable food spawns right?

[open hedge]

Interchange

Let me map it for you

That’s where the food is

Back of the center of the mall

In goshan

Many scavs be careful

[grand merlin]

ayyyyyy i am just going to go on reserve and customs. cuz those are the only maps i know lol

[open hedge]

That will probably take a while

[grand merlin]

prob

[open hedge]

Interchange is easy to learn

[grand merlin]

ima need to start playing a few interchanges though

[open hedge]

Interchange is a good map

[grand merlin]

if i don't get lucky

[open hedge]

I have all but 3 of its keys

[grand merlin]

ohhh mr key money bags here

[open hedge]

I only have 1 mil

Not money

[grand merlin]

lol

[hazy veldt]

Are there any expensive keys in Interchange?

Only the quest ones right?

shieet, OLI Logistics key is 500k.

[open hedge]

That’s why they are good they are only 300k max for low tier loot with a lot of possible led x and gpu spawns

Gun parts etc

But yeah medium grade loot for cheap but low risk

Unless killa finds you

[hazy veldt]

I mean logistics office is just one pc block, not worth getting the key if you got the quest done.

[open hedge]

task key not loot

[grand merlin]

that just mean better loot from killa

[shell kindle]

Interchange keys are goat

[grand merlin]

reserve keys are kinda lit

[open hedge]

Good keys are pharmacy kiba emc all cash registers and the keycards

[shell kindle]

Nobody bothers really so it’s more uncontested than the other keyed rooms in other maps

[open hedge]

Exactly

[shell kindle]

Reserve kinda chaddy

[grand merlin]

just lots of risk to em

[shell kindle]

Yeah there’s keys with better loot but you gotta fight for it

Interchange is free

[grand merlin]

i just honey bagger on reserve with an mpx and do pretty well customs is my rat haven

[open hedge]

Interchange has a lot of loot not locked behind keys usually

Free stuff

[grand merlin]

get that MONEY on customs

[open hedge]

With possible thermals in kiba

[shell kindle]

I can’t play reserve with mpx lol

Outside has too much shit to fight

[open hedge]

Mpx is good on customs and factory only

[safe shore]

hi there. i am looking at buying this game but have a few questions regarding the gameplay.

• if i cannot reach extraction or if i die does that mean i loose all progress too? (i know i will loose all my items)

• are there non-player characters i have to take down as i keep reading about missions that i need to complete for traders.

[hazy veldt]

did they buff the cash registers?

[open hedge]

1. You only lose what you brought with you into the raid not your entire stash 2. The ai factions are scavs raiders and rogues they are listed from easiest to hardest

[open hedge]

Actually they nerfed them but still like 60k per raid if you hit all of one of the types which pays them off in one raid so you can make like 600k for a 50k key if you have some spare time

Not a key to rely on but it’s cheap and if you’re there you might as well check a few

3 of them too

[safe shore]

so that means i can go about stealthily and just complete my mission and extract asap to achieve something right? (i suck at pvp so i prefer to avoid pvp for now)

[open hedge]

Let me be honest many tasks require you to be good at pvp so I recommend you use your time to get as good as you can as you go pvp skills are rewarding just remember to be confident and that hipfire works

[proven wave]

SUPREST MP 9

[open hedge]

Mp9 is so bad but yet so good for it’s price

[rain wing]

can emelya rye croutons sub for rye croutons?

[open hedge]

No

[rain wing]

sadge

[open hedge]

You can craft them I think

Nutrition unit

[proven wave]

THE MP9 PREVALE

[open hedge]

Only won because SA58 is trash I could kill a SA58 chad with a melee

[grand merlin]

I run it on customs and reserve and have done pretty well, but i try and only fight near buildings so it keeps with my playstyle

[idle fog]

gotta get that meta sa58 build

[open hedge]

Shotguns better saiga 12 is the best gun

[proven wave]

no he had 2 shotguns with flechets

and a sa 58 in his bag

[spiral flicker]

Did someone say sa-58?

[grand merlin]

Mossberg on factory is my stuff

[idle fog]

yes yes we did

[spiral flicker]

Do u like it?

[idle fog]

with a good build it melts

so id say yeah

[open hedge]

I updated my bio to represent myself better

[spiral flicker]

Finally someone who likes it

[grand merlin]

If you do buy it get standard version. After you play for a while if you have the spare money the higher tiers are pretty worth.

[idle fog]

but compared to anything else i dont think id run it unless i get one in my scav box

[open hedge]

Run the saiga 12

[idle fog]

gotta run the toz

[spiral flicker]

I run this on labs, it isn't the lowest recoil but it works for me

[open hedge]

How

Do you semi auto it?

[spiral flicker]

Mostly

[open hedge]

If so just use a different gun

[spiral flicker]

If someone is like 5 meters away I just pray that shit down

[open hedge]

Mdr or scar is better objectively

[spiral flicker]

Scar is best but its expensive af

[idle fog]

mp7 best

[open hedge]

Not on pk4 it’s pretty manageable

$1000

[spiral flicker]

That reminds me that I have like 20 mk17 in my stash

[open hedge]

About

Same

Not sure what map to use them

[spiral flicker]

Customs

Or labs

[open hedge]

I hate customs

Interchange and factory are my mains

[idle fog]

hahaha factory main

[spiral flicker]

Interchange should be good too

[open hedge]

Interchange is so good for a dmr and a scar is just a full auto dmr

[spiral flicker]

Yea that's what I like. 7.62x51 full auto dmr.

[hexed sinew]

hello. Have about 30 minutes played. looking for help

[open hedge]

It’s got the accuracy to pull it off to

[open hedge]

!sherpahub #sherpa-info

Sherpas are the official volunteer teachers of the game

[spiral flicker]

[open hedge]

Lshz is just a budget exfil and it’s quite nice if you can find the shield

I like it

Ops core better than lshz is budget ops cope fast and fast is budget exfil

Can’t stack large bags

Restricted

Yeah sometimes you can’t take it all

[brittle canyon]

if the bag is glitched I think it means that it’s actually not there

but you’re just seeing it

well bags or any glitched stuff on a body for that matter

[open hedge]

Nah I think he tried to stack but it didn’t let him since it was a “rare bag” and extra space bags also are restricted to have more than one

Ah yes visual bug then

Very unfortunate

Damn I’m envious

[spiral flicker]

Which jacket

Where

Give me information

[tame shard]

skull issue

[open hedge]

Doesn’t have the gen 3 adapter so it’s worse than the black variant but you can buy it easier

Can’t use full face shield

Not better bation is way better because headplate

[spiral flicker]

I found both pharmacy keys on interchange but I don't play them lol

[open hedge]

Bation is better for skull shots exfil is better for face shots since it has face shield

[open hedge]

Only one pharmacy the other is a emergency medical center

Black is harder to see other than that no

[spiral flicker]

I mean there are med stuff so it's not that different lol

[hazy veldt]

tan opscore is on flea iirc?

[open hedge]

Exfil

Exfil can protect all parts of the head with good ricochet chance while ops core can not protect the whole head

[hazy veldt]

No I mean you can buy the tan one on flea

[spiral flicker]

[open hedge]

Rag man is actually mid until final level

Peace keeper is much better

[spiral flicker]

Gzhel Is good from lvl 3 ragman

[open hedge]

It’s the worst class 5

[spiral flicker]

Nah

Why

[open hedge]

It is

[spiral flicker]

Why

[open hedge]

Worst repair-ability worst durability

Looks cool tho

[brittle canyon]

second worst dura

but yes it’s pretty bad

[open hedge]

Looks very drippy tho

[spiral flicker]

Who cares about repairs and 65 isn't that bad in my opinion

Korund is bad as hell tho

[open hedge]

Korund is better then gzhel

[brittle canyon]

who cares about repairs
korund users

[open hedge]

Korund has infinite repair

Slick has the infinite dura and repair-ability

[spiral flicker]

And btw korund 45 durability, redut 60, killa armor 60 so it isn't second worst durability

And gzhel is light

[open hedge]

It’s about effective dura bro

Not actual

[spiral flicker]

[open hedge]

Materials are the most important part

Gzhel takes significantly more damage than the other class 5

Did you not know that?

[spiral flicker]

Bro my imagine about armors just broke

[open hedge]

There is a material tier list

I’ll get it real quick

[spiral flicker]

[open hedge]

Look ceramic is the worst and that’s what the Gzhel is made of

Sorry to say but the Gzhel isn’t good

[spiral flicker]

And ur saying that korund is good armor when it's made of second worst material and its 20 less durability

[open hedge]

It’s about the repair

Steel can repair to almost full dura for about 20k from blacked out

Gzhel will only go to 40 out of 65 from black for like 60k

Yeah material is very important

[spiral flicker]

That's cool but I'll still use it bcs it's cheap

[open hedge]

Korund barter is the same price

From prapor

Seriously it’s better

[spiral flicker]

That's cool but who cares about repairs when u will die because of low durability

[open hedge]

They are roughly the same from straight out of the box

Both are tank a few rounds and ditch the difference is that if you insure the Korund you can repair it when it comes back

[spiral flicker]

[open hedge]

But yeah if recommend the Korund even though it looks way more stupid and (according to stats) looks worse but hidden stats are a bitch

[spiral flicker]

I still have like 8 gzhels in my stash so I'll use them

[open hedge]

Yeah do that

But if you’re gonna buy them the Korund is great to insure and ditch after taking damage to armor swap

[spiral flicker]

Do you remember this?

He had korund

And every shot was in thorax or stomach.

10 hitcounts

His korund was 0/45

So I think that can work

[open hedge]

Yes that’s why I say tank and ditch

[spiral flicker]

[open hedge]

Take some damage kill and guy swap armor profit (plus you get it back in insurance)

[tame shard]

yo is evasion armband worth something?

[open hedge]

30-40k

So not really

[tame shard]

alright

[open hedge]

Looks decent tho

Labs armband better

[spiral flicker]

I am using the usec armband

[open hedge]

Drippy

[spiral flicker]

It's pretty decent

[open hedge]

Labs is the best imo

[spiral flicker]

True

[open hedge]

I have it had to trade 5 access card for it

I had my own a one time but sold it for a Violet card

[spiral flicker]

5 access?

oof

[open hedge]

I can buy after resets

Also I have high scav rep it builds up

[spiral flicker]

there is my armor collection lol

yea i am hoarder

xD

[open hedge]

I’m too shit at the game to collect like that

Also you have so much so why run the shitty class 4 ceramic rig

[spiral flicker]

because i ditched my lvl 5 for this

i killed

guz

huy

[open hedge]

[spiral flicker]

fuck

guy

and he had this and my armor was broken

so i took his

xd

and also this gun is pretty bad

bad modded

ofcourse

[open hedge]

No such thing as a bad scar

You tripping

[spiral flicker]

its 5.56

xD

[open hedge]

Still good

M855a1 slaps

[tame shard]

exactly

[spiral flicker]

[tame shard]

sounds like skull issue on your end @spiral flicker

[spiral flicker]

yea

agree

like 5.45 is pretty bad round tho

[pure talon]

o.O

[open hedge]

If it was bad why is it in your name?

[spiral flicker]

because i am enjoying it

[blazing grail]

can anyone like guide me through a raid, bc when i play by myself i literally shit myself the entire time

[tame shard]

well

[open hedge]

Put in a ticket with a Sherpa in #sherpa-info they are the official teachers

[tame shard]

that sounds like a bowel disfunction

maybe you should visit a doctor

[pure talon]

he's enjoying a butt injection with it

[spiral flicker]

pretty much

[blazing grail]

okay thank you

[tame shard]

np

[safe shore]

hi again. i have a question about the map. i read that we all play on the same map (which resets after 6 hours i think). so is there a max number of players in this map? and also does that mean more instances of this map is created when there are too many players wanting to join?

asking cos i think i like the idea of not having to wait for matches to fill up

[pure talon]

oh, you must mistake it for the Cycle

[open hedge]

There are numerous maps you choose which on to play on each map has a different number of players

The time varies from 25 min to 45 min depending on the map

[safe shore]

oh sorry i thought i was in the cycle chat! sorry... yeah im trying to figure out which of the two to try hehehehe

[spiral flicker]

this is wrong and i think its someones idea how streets of tarkov could work

[open hedge]

I’ve played the cycle and it’s not as good as tarkov

Not enough gun variety

Makes thinks feel stale

[tame shard]

the cycle is goofy as hell

also boring

[pure talon]

i feel you, there were 3 meta guns instead of 4... i hated that as well

[open hedge]

100 shots to kill a guy with no armor

[tame shard]

i didnt have any motivation to play after my second game

[open hedge]

But he can 2 shot you because he has a manticore

Pretty mid

Need a more diverse meta and more gear variety

[pure talon]

hows that different from the experience of a new player trying to sport his mp5 with pst ammo against an enemy in lvl 5?

[open hedge]

This game has leg meta

[pure talon]

most people cant hit head and you expect them to aim for legs which is much harder due to recoil? x)

[open hedge]

Plus you can experience many different things the cycle is all the same from my like 20 raids

[tame shard]

yeah leg meta doesnt work for me

i just can't bring myself to aim for the legs

[open hedge]

Leg meta always works if you can aim

[tame shard]

it feels so abnormal

[safe shore]

so yeah i do have a question about tarkov again. this is about cheating. i've read the cycle has quite a bit of cheaters. im wondering if tarkov is reasonably cheater free (im hoping since its pay to play)

[open hedge]

No

[pure talon]

good for you sir, good for you

[tame shard]

yeah but why spray the legs if i can oneshot with a headshot

goofy

[open hedge]

Cheaters are rampant everywhere these days

[pure talon]

the answer is definitely not

[open hedge]

No matter the game

Hacker are everywhere

[pure talon]

mostly on tarkov

[open hedge]

It’s a problem with these no life fuckers

[pure talon]

but yeah, everywhere

[open hedge]

They deserve jail time

[pure talon]

labs, customs, everywhere

[tame shard]

i haven't met a single hacker while playing yet

[dusky geyser]

i have met a couple superspeeders and spawnkill gamers

[pure talon]

you need to crawl out of that bush and youll meet one surely

[tame shard]

what bush

[spiral flicker]

i met atleast 1 on woods, he got full auto M700 (i saw it in his hands when he was shooting on me)

[pure talon]

xtract camping bush

[tame shard]

i don't really extract camp anymore

became too rich for that

[open hedge]

#beginners-assistance message

I think that guy was hacking

Couldn’t clip because my game crashed

So I guess you can only trust my words

[pure talon]

he shot while jumping?

definitely a hack!

[open hedge]

As I thought

He had eod too

Which is strange

For a hacker

Maybe a stolen account

[pure talon]

and an unactivated windows

[open hedge]

Hackers are such low lives

He wasn’t aimboting but he could sprint forever and shoot while he normally would mot be able to

Also was moving way faster than normal I’d say 200% faster

@vocal flint was there too

[pure talon]

are you familiar with the term "netcode"?

[open hedge]

No

I’m dumb
