[jaunty cliff]

Barter

[cold blade]

[whole thistle]

Barter with usba

[cold blade]

[whole thistle]

Post your gun

[fast dragon]

guys it worked. thank you all ♥♥

i was watching old wipe's video i guess..

that was the big issue :/

[whole thistle]

Oh yeah attachments were changed a lot this wipe

If you want a source that's guaranteed to work then just check the wiki @fast dragon

[prime comet]

thank you @olive bough

now i can be at peace for a moment with shoreline

[twin cairn]

hey guys if i spawn on the shore of lighthouse should i still go and farm rouges ?

[whole thistle]

I would just loot and reset, you do you tho

[silk dew]

any idea where i can find a RSASS for mechanic quest?

[twin cairn]

alright thanks

[crimson wharf]

sneak up on the guys that are on the mountain

[dry belfry]

Pretty easy to head up the West coast, kill the roof rogues, and watch the North building parking lot for rogues/pmcs

[whole thistle]

Peacekeeper 3 barter

[open hedge]

Found one in factory in the shelf’s in office window hallway I wouldn’t bet you’d find it there tho

Airdrops have them but airdrops are pretty much nonexistent

Found a few in gun boxes

[silk dew]

ive got 0.01rep on pk xD

[crimson wharf]

scav case, airdrops

[whole thistle]

Friends from the west time

[open hedge]

You can get them in all marked rooms

[crimson wharf]

i'm pretty sure i got mine out a marked room when i did that quest

[silk dew]

was hoping to buy one on flea but seems like nobody sells it there

[silk dew]

airdrops is a good call

[crimson wharf]

yeah, airdrops can be risky though

[silk dew]

btw when do i get pk quests?

[crimson wharf]

you get him with skier

[silk dew]

damn skier ... i cant manage to get that golden zibbo

[crimson wharf]

i think it is called like Friend from the West or something like that

[prime comet]

found one in the usec camp on woods in a weapons crate

[open hedge]

Friend from the west pt 2 asks for money to unlock pk I think

[stoic fjord]

can someone tell me what im missing for this to not be red?? im trying to do the mechanic quest

i followed a youtube video, we have the EXACT build for it to be able to turn in but shits just fucking me over

[silk dew]

durability maybe

[stoic fjord]

but its over 60

[whole crest]

Magazine

U need shell thingy

[silk dew]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Gunsmith_-_Part_1

[stoic fjord]

ty it worked

[whole crest]

Np

[silent hamlet]

For survivalist path - can I bring body armor into the raid, and take it off when I shoot at scavs, and then put it back on??

[hazy veldt]

it's flea banned.

Moonshing scavs brought me four over two-three weeks iirc.

[normal ermine]

Yeah that’s what most people do, but real chads will go in without it

[hazy veldt]

Just wearing MMAC should also work.

[silent hamlet]

Rat life

[arctic zealot]

Does stuff from scav box count as FIR

[normal ermine]

Nah I don’t rat, I just don’t usually buy body armor. Does it get me killed? Hell yeah, but when I play woods I usually just take in some sks or Adar just to get things done

[pearl mica]

Yes. All Hideout crafts count as FIR

[arctic zealot]

Oh shit

[silent hamlet]

How do you define rat?

[arctic zealot]

maybe I should use my hideout more

[normal ermine]

Only going around for stashes/sitting in a bush all game

[silent hamlet]

Word. Thats what I do for the first 10m of the raid, seeing as Im level 7

[normal ermine]

It really depends where I spawn tbh

[open hedge]

Stash mid

Boss/raider farming better

Red rebel farming off shturman is the meta

[crimson wharf]

i feel like rogue farming is the meta

[open hedge]

Nah

Too busted

If you slip for half a second you get melted by 22 m855 rounds

Rogues are so illogically powerful

Raiders and bosses are easier with more breathing room

They just don’t always spawn

Plus 90% of rogues can’t even be looted

[crimson wharf]

the xp though, and they be sitting on some really good loot

i've never had any trouble with farming them

[median raven]

U can always only kill the 2 at the front and hmg on the warehouse at the front for some free exp and a quick loot run

That’s what I’ve started

[open hedge]

I always have one that will randomly decide to be way better than the rest and head eyes me from god knows e where if I even think about looking at him

I can get all but the one on the far left building

And sometimes the ground guys get me

Usually just the guy on far left

[median raven]

The guy who showed me that route it’s really safe

Only reasons I’ve died cause I didn’t do it right

[shell kindle]

idk for some reason I always get shot looting the front 2

[open hedge]

Well yes

That’s intentional

The entire camp is insta kill territory if you don’t kill the gunners that literally have thermals implanted in their eyes

[crimson wharf]

never shoot the front two

front two are not worth it

[shell kindle]

yeah i was trying to extract via grotto once and this dude on top of the left warehouse could see me lol

[open hedge]

All of them are easy other than the far left guy on the roof

[median raven]

I do it depends on ur route ig

When i shoot the front two its free loot for me

[crimson wharf]

front left guy is easy money too

[median raven]

The only reason u cant loot them is u gotta kill the HMG in the warehouse behind them

[crimson wharf]

you are talking about the one on top of warehouse 3 right?

[median raven]

No

The front two

And the one behind the front two

On HMG

That’s my route

It’s relatively safe

[crimson wharf]

yeah, that's warehouse 3

[median raven]

Oh

[open hedge]

They need to make so that they don’t have perfect aim and detection and then they will be ok in my books

[median raven]

Ye

Also

Wait

[median raven]

Since u seem to know the route

There’s one more rogue on top of the building when u exit

Can i go onto main road

And onto like the forest area

To avoid him and get to train yard

?

[crimson wharf]

as long as you stay on the rocks, no idea why you would go to train yard though unless you are playing scav

[median raven]

Also tip, if u have any scoped weapon its an ez kill snipe between the cracks in the cargo container

[median raven]

My route just has me loot the warehouse in train yard

Lots of toolboxes

[crimson wharf]

ahhh

[median raven]

Then i hit like 2 tech spawns behind the warehouse

Then northern extract

It’s a 10 min route

[crimson wharf]

no yeah just stay on rocks when you go onto the left side of the road by grotto, i've seen landmine signs over there but i've never fucked around to find out

[shell kindle]

can someone tell me why scav vests are like 25k when you can barter a slicker for it from jaeger

[median raven]

Ive kinda tested it so the grotto extract right

There’s a rocky path after the grotto

I dont think

[crimson wharf]

too lazy to get slicker

[median raven]

Theres land mines after

[shell kindle]

its like 1 more click lol

[median raven]

*no

[crimson wharf]

i think so

[silent hamlet]

How do I "restock the bunker" at ZB-14? Throw the items on floor?

[shell kindle]

walk up to the broken crate in the corner, there will be a popup

[silent hamlet]

Nice. thank you

[shell kindle]

dont throw the items on the floor pls

[crimson wharf]

too much work

[shell kindle]

also pick up 60 round mags if you have the key

ice cream cone is easier

[crimson wharf]

i craft my slickers though

[shell kindle]

i dont use power so that aint it for me

also the vita can be used to barter for the slicker so i check if thats cheaper first

[median raven]

I just got like 10 from jaeger killa quest

Free 1 mil intelligence

[crimson wharf]

noice

[open hedge]

[crimson wharf]

cannot wait to finally get that bastard killa

[open hedge]

I’ve seen him about 20 times

I’ve lived 0

Corner camping bitch

[crimson wharf]

i've seen him like 3 times and have never survived

[open hedge]

He’s always in rat spots

He never just fights you

[crimson wharf]

he fights you, but he mag dumps you with a big ass magazine so you usually get hit in the eyes 6 times

[open hedge]

He’s never fought me in fair environment

[crimson wharf]

true

[open hedge]

He’s always waiting on corners

Dark corners

[lime isle]

how can I add a scope to the default m4 i start with

[open hedge]

Take the carry handle off

Prepare to hate looking at the front ironsight

Realize the m4 sucks

Sell the m4

Buy a cheaper more effective gun

Profit

[lime isle]

im still so new no clue whats a good gun just tryna see how i can find a scope that fits my m4 and if its even possible at my level (5)

[dusky geyser]

dont
if you do, take off the carry handle and replace the gas block with this one https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Daniel_Defense_MK12_Low_Profile_Gas_Block

[lime isle]

would you say a good starter kit thats easy to build is a sks with scope? and basic armor gear?

[sleek pollen]

yes

[dusky geyser]

SKS is really really good early game

[sterile minnow]

Yes

[dusky geyser]

shove a PSO onto it and you're golden

[lime isle]

is that gun a 1 shot hs through any armor?

[sleek pollen]

depends on the bullet

[tacit ferry]

mai ap does

[dusky geyser]

it's about the ammo, not the gun - you only have access to PS ammo though, which works but won't pen meta armor

even then it's still a really good starting bullet

[sleek pollen]

yea just aim for the face and your golden

[dusky geyser]

well that can be said for anything lmao

[sleek pollen]

lmfao true

[sterile minnow]

Ps doesnt pen on the first bullet, more like 6 with endgame armor

[dusky geyser]

PS can 7-shot a slick

it will easily pen most scav armor and helmets that people usually run (LShZ and Ratnik) but will struggle with t4

[lime isle]

is there an mmr system or will my games even with pmc's be filled with people around my level?

[dusky geyser]

nope

there is no matchmaking

have fun!

[open hedge]

You will be killed by a max level 8000hr no life

That’s reality

And by hackers

[dusky geyser]

why are there so many lv50 hatchet runners on factory when i run it

unironically

[sleek pollen]

idk the other day i killed a level 48 sitting in office with a db

[dusky geyser]

mf you can at least afford a fuckin gun

[open hedge]

They are sick of the tasks

They are going insane

[dusky geyser]

i am also sick of fucking factory tasks

however

[silk dew]

if i buy a map, can i still choose where i spawn?

[open hedge]

I’ve done all my factory tasks

Easy stuff

[open hedge]

Don’t think so

[dusky geyser]

press armor + oomp + penis helm

[sleek pollen]

no, maps are pretty much useless in this game

[open hedge]

I use class 5 and a decked out saiga 12

[silk dew]

but it was a thing some time ago, right?

[dusky geyser]

that works

[open hedge]

Sometimes run tagilla gear and a mp7

[dusky geyser]

korund + saiga + 2dtm

tagilla gear?

say bye bye to ur stomach!

[sterile minnow]

Fairly sure you never could choose your spawn

[open hedge]

Gen 4 exfil and saiga 12

That’s my load out of choice

[dusky geyser]

exfil to factory?

hmmmm

[open hedge]

7mm buckshot won’t hurt me

[silk dew]

really? guess its mandela effect then ... i was 99% sure it was possible to choose at least the side where u spawn

[dusky geyser]

remember - T45 pens t3

i discovered that the hard way

[open hedge]

Sometimes I use that one class 4 helm with the class 4 fs with that weird dovetail armor

[dusky geyser]

thats the 2dtm yes

[open hedge]

It’s pretty decent against those pesky factory rats

[dusky geyser]

LShZ-2DTM

i have no fucking idea what the second part stands for

[sterile minnow]

Sounds like a weird thing tbh
You can choose what map you wanna play, But not where on said map you spawn

[open hedge]

I don’t care if my stomach is taken I always walk out alive as long as I’m only fighting a 3-4 stack

I can’t deal with 5 stacks effectively

Not yet

10rd mags of flechette can only take me so far

[dusky geyser]

i can barely go against 3 people lmao

[arctic zealot]

There is not a stimulant that makes you move faster right? Only stamina boost?

[silk dew]

i just googled it ... it was removed 2018 lmao

[open hedge]

Factory is full of shitters

[sterile minnow]

Oh fr?

[dusky geyser]

duos are pretty easy though if they're together

will absolutely demolish me using any kind of splitting up tactic

[silk dew]

yep ^^ i was playing since 0.8 i think and i remembered it worked once

[sterile minnow]

Never knew that was a thing

The more you know huh

[open hedge]

Factory is my hunting ground I have it all memorized

[dusky geyser]

me too

[open hedge]

I will predict their every move

[median raven]

My flechettes will tho

[dusky geyser]

i go there for funny PM headshots

[sterile minnow]

Ah, this is my 2. Wipe, not very familliar with the "old game"

[dusky geyser]

hi hello this is my flechette complaining message
fuck flechette
thank you for listening

AP-20 based

[open hedge]

Flechette meta

[median raven]

L

[dusky geyser]

fuck flechette

[sterile minnow]

Fuck jaeger

[median raven]

I have 200 rounds of flechette

In my ammo box

[dusky geyser]

jaeger is cool

[open hedge]

I use so much flechette I buy 100 rounds per reset and run out after an hour or 2

[dusky geyser]

i have like 500 crafted from metal fuel tanks and PS ammo LMAO

people be shittin on 5.45 PS when they forget that it's literally a free kite

[prime comet]

your squad all got to choose

you could take all 4 corners of the map if you wanted basically

[open hedge]

Spawn inside health resort 301

[sleek pollen]

you guys know if BSG ever gonna add like a custom server, like an offline game where you can join with friends and fight eachother

[open hedge]

[sleek pollen]

epic

[open hedge]

So in the next year or 2

[sterile minnow]

Soon 🇹🇲

[sleek briar]

Is this Aquamari gonna burst and explode when I open it? New water grenade maybe?

[normal ermine]

If you play factory and don’t know it, you have problems lmao

[sleek pollen]

):

[open hedge]

I don’t just play factory I main it

[normal ermine]

I did too, it was the first map I learned (unfortunately)

[open hedge]

I’ve been a factory enjoyer for 1500 hours

[normal ermine]

But now I don’t play it much unless I’m short on time or wanna have fun with a db

[open hedge]

Free dogtags for quests

Barters

Free low grade guns

Sometimes decent stuff

[west oar]

Is ther some thing I don't get about flashette? I looked at the veritas calculator and it seems to take a lot more hits then what people say to kill. Or is each click one pellet on the app?

[open hedge]

If it does 17 damage and you hit them 12 times in the chest one one trigger pull

It does very well

Also has good penetration

[uncut depot]

I play factory in between raids where I've either extracted before my team or died before they have gotten out and I bring altyn vector .45 and korund, what do you see as the normal gear for factory runners because literally all I see is flechette shotguns and I think to myself literally any other buckshot hurts more than fletchette

I fear the toz star slugs more than I fear fletchette, I don't think I've died to fletchette since the shotgun buff back in 12.6

[mellow sleet]

the toz really?

ks is the real issue

shrap-10 will fuck you up

[finite terrace]

anyone whose really familiar with labs wanna queue with me and teach me some spots

[uncut depot]

ks23 is bugged rn, you shoot out of the internal magazine and since the magazine doesn't have ironsights it shoots to the bottom right

[uncut depot]

I'm just saying I fear that more than fletchette obviously the unbugged ks-23 is the most broken thing in tarkov history, that shit 1 taps legs at 15 meters +

[sleek pollen]

i usually see db's with magnum fuckshot when i run factory

thats also what i tend to run

[open hedge]

Average gear is usually shotguns with magnum or flechette but you can find really anything there

Flechette is devastating for anyone under class 5 armor

[uncut depot]

yeah, I'm sad that factory is such a shitfest for gear, I try to get some pvp and all I do is waste 100 rounds of .45 ap and kill 5 shotgunners with no armor and shit ammo

[open hedge]

That’s why I use cheap ammo called flechette

Clean lobby wipes

[uncut depot]

thats fair, I run korund exclusively as soon as I hit prapor 3 until I unlock aacpcs and slicks, then that's all I run

[uncut depot]

🤨

monster

evil demon

[open hedge]

How

Saiga 12 lowest recoil build on factory

Gen4

Profit

[uncut depot]

ok thats actually kinda cool

gen4 is def not the move

[merry swift]

Pls dont remind me

[open hedge]

Gen 4 mobility is chad don’t you diss it

[uncut depot]

I got max strength and tha shit still makes me feel like I'm moving as slow as a turtle

[open hedge]

I run mobility kit

Not standard

[uncut depot]

still terrible

12 kilos and repairs like garbage

[open hedge]

It’s literally not bad at all

[uncut depot]

where the hell are you even buying it drom

[open hedge]

It’s easy to get too

[uncut depot]

from*

[open hedge]

I have like 12 of it FIR

[uncut depot]

ahh okay that makes sense

[open hedge]

They return in insurance too

[uncut depot]

I would say its by far the worst class 5

[open hedge]

Gzhel?

[uncut depot]

gzhel is good for like 2 raids

[open hedge]

It’s good for 2 bullets

[uncut depot]

korund is the eco king, can literally run it for 11 raids in a row and it will still be above 50% durability

but killa armor and aacpc is the absolute king of class 5

[open hedge]

Gen 4 has never failed me so I will continue to run it as I please

[uncut depot]

its not bad, class 5 doesn't have a bad armor, its just the worst for movement, cost, and pretty bad for repairibility but I respect it, since you have so many

[open hedge]

Plus I also have enough GP coins to buy another 3 if I want to

Saving for that GP event if they reuse it

Probably not

[uncut depot]

aren't gp coins 50k rn?

[bold kernel]

but u can just buy gp coins?

[open hedge]

Idk

Irrelevant

I’d rather collect them with my sicc case

Costs no money to hold them

[uncut depot]

yeah I guess but you're losing money not selling them unless you die

[open hedge]

Most are not FIR

[uncut depot]

alright alright

[open hedge]

As I keep them in secure container

And I often forget to take them out

🥱

[finite terrace]

too many lol

[open hedge]

That’s too much

[sterile minnow]

And the 4 pliers

[finite terrace]

yea that's where i put the juice items, then i realised i have a lot of space in that scav case so i made it a tool box too

[median raven]

Not drippy

Prokill to roller ratio is not good

Drip not acquired

[shell kindle]

why dont the bosses have any voice lines WTF

just died because i thought killa was a pmc

[median raven]

They do i think

[shell kindle]

nah he didnt say shit

[uncut depot]

only reshala, sanitar and glukhar have voicelines

[shell kindle]

just shuffled in the corner

[finite terrace]

all the juice is here

[shell kindle]

im so upset

[uncut depot]

the other bosses just have normal scav voicelines

[median raven]

Imagine if u could wear valuables

[median raven]

My good friend helped me with the killa quest

So glad I’m done with it

Killa is stronk

Strong armor and helmet

[shell kindle]

i mean like if i knew it was killa i wouldve just left lol

stupid rat

[open hedge]

I need to kill killa

[shell kindle]

i turn the corner and I see his stupid mask

and then i die

right away

[median raven]

Nooo why

It’s very very good loot

[shell kindle]

i die?

[median raven]

Just nade if u think hes there

[shell kindle]

i didnt know lol

[median raven]

If u nade he runs out

[shell kindle]

i also had no nades

[median raven]

Like an idiot

[shell kindle]

i didnt know where he was

[median raven]

If u were pmc always bring at least 2 names

Nades

[shell kindle]

he was tucked into a like 3 walled alleyway in idea

[median raven]

Yeah well, just be in mind where killa spawns

It’s usually idea, garage, and like near the center of interchange

[shell kindle]

i didnt know he spawned at night

[median raven]

I think all bosses still have a chance to spawn

Tagilla is increased at night iirc

*at night

[left summit]

is a untar helmet craftable ?

[bold kernel]

[median raven]

Bro I saved everyone one of those

Hey, if u need flash drives

Buy some customs dorms safe keys

They’re not that expensive

Good for money and considerable chance for flash drives

Ive found like 20 in total and debating if I wanna sell the rest cause i dont need them anymore, that shit goes for like 75 k

[open hedge]

Factory

I have like 13 flash drives

🗿

[median raven]

Same

[median raven]

That’s how i got pmc kills

Me and my flechettes

[bold kernel]

If I want to make my gun as quiet as possible does it matter which suppressor I use? Remington 700 in this example.

[open hedge]

All suppressors are different and ammo affects it too

Subsonic ammo is bad but quiet

As Val is the exception

[bold kernel]

By subsonic you mean 4.6x30mm?

[open hedge]

No

Any subsonic ammo

Subsonic is a speed not a type

[bold kernel]

Oh

[open hedge]

Anything under 400 mps is usually subsonic

Can’t remember the speed exactly

[silent hamlet]

Possible to get a flashlight on my AKM at trader level 1?

[pearl mica]

There are certain ammo types that are subsonic meaning they have a much lower velocity than the regular rounds of the same caliber. Most of the times they have reduced recoil though.

[open hedge]

Much lower stats tho

Damage and pen takes a good knock

[median raven]

Reesessss

[bold kernel]

So I can check that on Muzzle Velocity stat?

[median raven]

Help me with my shoreline quest pls later

[open hedge]

The wiki tells you

[open hedge]

Yes dm me so I don’t forget

[sleek pollen]

should be able to

[shell kindle]

im confused, for cargo manifest quest, database part 1, I need a key for the oli one?

[median raven]

Bro MDR 762 is the GOAT

But i cant get it

Until LL4

[median raven]

Ok

[open hedge]

FYI in the wiki ballistics chart all tracer ammo is marked T all subsonic is marked S and all banned from flea ammo is marked F

!wiki ballistics

[broken quail]

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

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ballistics

Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.

[pearl mica]

there is no subsonic round for 762x51 before you take a look

[open hedge]

The largest subsonic is 9x39 all variants

Anything larger cannot be subsonic last I checked

[zinc marlin]

there is 7.62x39 US

[open hedge]

9x39 is bigger

[zinc marlin]

huh

[open hedge]

Do you know how numbers work?

The tip on 9x39 is substantially larger than 7.62

The shell is the same tho

[pearl mica]

You must be fun at parties

[open hedge]

I don’t go to parties

Never been to one that wasn’t family

[primal breach]

mp7 subsonic aint that bad

[open hedge]

Well renowned loser here

[open hedge]

Fmj is affordable and better

With traders at least

[median raven]

FMJ shreds for a ll3 round

Slap that shit in mp7 lit

[open hedge]

Exactly

30rd mags and fmj are cheap and they fuck

[median raven]

30rd mags aren’t cheap tho if u dont have ll3 mechanic like me

:(

Also how can i get ap sx rounds

?

[open hedge]

FIR only

[median raven]

Fr

Are u serious

[open hedge]

Think so

[median raven]

Damn ive found 28 rounds of ap sx ONCE

ONCE

Damn…

[open hedge]

You find a lot of it in small bursts

But it’s flesh damage is awful

Most cases I’d rather use fmj

Unless I’m trying to 1 tap an altyn

Which will only take a few fmj

So at a high rpm that’s easy

[median raven]

Oh fr

I mean that’s true

Mp7 fmj rips anyways

[stoic fjord]

nah those scavs are crazy

[open hedge]

AP is a round you only use if you’re trying to kill killa or some shit so you mag dump his head

Still gotta hit I’m a few times

Every round in the game has that one round that does way too much pen but not enough damage

It’s always somewhere

Other than pistol rounds

SSA AP MAI AP AP SX IGOLNIK M993 762 BS

[spiral flicker]

SSA AP be like

it has lowest damage in game i think

[open hedge]

They are still all very powerful just not practical

does a vendor sell hunter? i dont have flea

kekw

[potent adder]

@hardy bear if you don't have the Flea you can make a dirt cheap AKM that'll get you by

Your biggest problem is ammo, not attachments

[spiral flicker]

At level 1 traders just use a sks with some random dovetail sight

That’s really all you can do

Bring a backpack tho

[swift acorn]

im about to go labs what foken gun should i take

[merry swift]

I agree with the sentiment but 7.62 BS is plenty of damage and AP SX was the meta SMG round last wipe. There's always a place for an SMG that will shred altyns, I saw quite a few MP7's on reserve, shoreline, labs

[open hedge]

Toz with thermal

The physics of the new state of Aquamari bottles.

So if you had Aquamari bottles in your inventories you may notice that their new maximum content is at 50. And yet, if you had them full prior to the update, they will retain the 150 units they had in them.

Assuming the volume of the bottle at 0.6l as stated by the game, that's 1.8l of water compressed to only 33% of its volume. The bulk modulus of elasticity of water is 2.2GPa, and using this we can calculate the potential elastic energy of the pressurized water within (taking atmospheric pressure into account):

W = (2.2*10^9*0.006/2*0.0018) - 2.2*10^9*0.0018/2 + 
2.2*10^9*0.0012 - 101325*0.0012

W = 367 326 546 J

So essentially trying to drink from this bottle would release the energy of 18366 .50 BMG bullets or 79kg of TNT into your PMC's mouth and I think that's really fucking funny.

[swift acorn]

aww come on bot

i just wanted to post sussy da rock

[misty ginkgo]

What you bring to labs?

A gun that you’re comfortable with, that uses good ammo. Preferably cheap.

A cheap armored rig (i prefer TV-110), a headset that you like and shattered mask.

Then a bag pack - the biggest one you have.

[primal breach]

stolen from reddit

[open hedge]

I’m not claiming ownership

[misty ginkgo]

If im feeling goofy i bring T-7 🤪

[merry swift]

Gotta do Bullshit quest to unlock it

[median niche]

is this worth trying out or should I just sell the barter items?

[merry swift]

If you wanna go 'budget' labs then bring a vector and a big rig

[open hedge]

Sell items imo

Flea market

[misty ginkgo]

Use some meta af AKM, or smg’s. You can easily reposition and not take the long range fights in Labs

Vector or MP7 is really good.

[open hedge]

Vector is for cowards

Leg meta pricks

[misty ginkgo]

The ammo is very expensive. Sell the items

[swift acorn]

or i just say fuck it and go with this loadout

[open hedge]

Mp7 and p90 is for men

Pls don’t bring a Thor lol

That’s not a Thor

thats a zabralo

[open hedge]

Not even close to the same color

[misty ginkgo]

Zabralo my bad

Had a discussion with my buddy if he should bring a Thor to labs earlier… Mixed it up 🤷‍♂️

Don’t bring a Zabralo either.

[open hedge]

I’ve use Thor on factory a good bit this wipe

Good fun

[misty ginkgo]

Leg meta

[swift acorn]

i could go with a p90 but (ss190 out of stock)

[open hedge]

They are not smart enough for that also do you think that I would let them see my legs with that on? I’m not a fool

[swift acorn]

fuck do i do with 2 and a quarter mags

[misty ginkgo]

Then wait for it to restock 🤷‍♂️

[open hedge]

Use slightly worse ammo then

Not a huge deal

[misty ginkgo]

Or just bring the second best ammo.

[loud cipher]

any friendly ppl here who would want to help me learn the game:D? i play alot of shooters on a high lvl but eft is diffrent lol

Sure, it’s fine.

It’s rare seeing people run good armor on Labs anyways

You don’t need the top tier meta ammo most of the time

[open hedge]

What kind of lobbies do you get

Altyn slick central

[misty ginkgo]

I would love those lobbies.

I mainly play labs, and only find those people 1 or 2 times a day.

It’s too expensive to run those kits. We’re not late wipe yet

People are scared of the cheaters, and weird deaths.

[open hedge]

I just get hunter down by cheaters or by slick chads

[misty ginkgo]

They don’t think it’s worth wasting that much money to get head-eyes by a mosin.

[open hedge]

Or 57 corner camping rats

[misty ginkgo]

I never find cheaters. People hackusate too much

[misty ginkgo]

Loads of them

It’s expensive for people to Enter labs, they don’t wanna die in there 🤷‍♂️

[open hedge]

I’ve gotten a pretty irrefutable case on my behalf

[misty ginkgo]

Just say gg’s and move on

[spiral flicker]

bro WTF XD

[misty ginkgo]

There can be some sketchy deaths. Nothing to do about it, other than move on.

The game is buggy, loads of desync and audio issues. Many small streamers have called me and my friends out as cheaters lol - a few big aswell

[open hedge]

So does shooting at me through walls and prefireing me consistently and chasing me relentlessly for like 5 straight minutes just have to be a bug

[spiral flicker]

thats the funniest shit i saw in this channel

[misty ginkgo]

It seems weird that he didn’t just kill you - if he wanted to.

Cheaters usually just wipe the lobby, and loot.

Not saying the game is cheater free, but that people hackusate too often.

[open hedge]

He did kill me

[whole thistle]

You could try the sherpahub server since you aren't getting responses here

[open hedge]

Be shot me through doors and everything so I don’t see how that’s legit

[loud cipher]

@whole thistle thx man

[open hedge]

If it could be shot through he’d hit me consistently

Wasn’t aimboting but he was certainly using radar or something

[misty ginkgo]

That sounds very weird, you have a clip of it?

[open hedge]

No

[misty ginkgo]

What ammo was he using

[open hedge]

I didn’t think to clip is because I almost smashed my monitor

[spiral flicker]

[open hedge]

762 BP if I recall

[misty ginkgo]

And he didn’t tap you?

You should get Black and Violet, Yellow if you’re feeling lucky. Black from the Mechanic barter

[wispy flint]

does the xp that we get on scavs count towards my pmc?

Blue Marking really isn't worth it.

@swift acorn I’m gonna avoid the pain

I have it stashed in a backpack gonna do anesthesia today

[misty ginkgo]

If you have the will and money, i would recommend you getting some buddies and just play some labs. That's how i did it - and now i only play it.

I literally just played my first game and snuck up behind a scav using a scav and shot him four times with a long rife from 10 feet. Is it really that hard to kill in this game??

[dry belfry]

Depends on who you were shooting, what gun, what ammo, what armor the scav was wearing, etc

So, yeah. It really is hard to kill in this game

[open hedge]

I don’t know much that a scav can wear that would take 10 shots from a rifle to die from

Unless by rifle he meant like 366 geksa rounds

[sleek briar]

Nice one, thanks

[bleak oak]

Keep dying to rogues as a scav on lighthouse - at water station. They're OP af.. either can't approach the compound or get killed when I walk close to one. Any tips? I spawned with a crappy ak without a scope and from like 75 meters he was already pissed and shooting at me

I should just try to kill them at range?

[vagrant cargo]

sorry guys theres a new chad in town

[bleak oak]

not always possible due to crappy gear

[vagrant cargo]

then play pmc

[bleak oak]

it's not easier

rogues are automatically aggro

[vagrant cargo]

so what

theyll aggro anyways

might as well know what to expect and have an actually usable gun

they cant do shit from range

[open hedge]

Bear moment

[vagrant cargo]

real far

[sterile minnow]

use cover or stay tf away

[open hedge]

I’ve been 300m headshot by them after the nerf

[sterile minnow]

usec superior

[bleak oak]

they're aggro on usec too aren't they?

[open hedge]

No

[bleak oak]

oh

[open hedge]

Only if you get too close for too long

Or shoot them

But they are passive

[bold kernel]

tagilla night raid spawn chance?

[bleak oak]

so if I have a sniper rifle or rifle with scope I can go as scav, otherwise I should go to another map or stay away from water treatment

[violet light]

if a PMC has messed with them they'll aggro scavs. Or if you go up into the guard towers

[vagrant cargo]

why the fuck do you want to scav it so bad

[open hedge]

Gotta hope for pmc to kill them or scavs are passive with them as well so just stuck to cover and only go inside of buildings don’t go into the open field

[vagrant cargo]

the xp wont be useful if youre on scav

so why the fuck do it as a scav

[open hedge]

Loot

[bleak oak]

need money and my friend mentioned it's easy good loot from rogues, but it doesn't seem so easy indeed

and I'm trying to learn the map

so as a scav it's risk free

[vagrant cargo]

might as well get xp from it

[vagrant cargo]

the risk is losing your time like an idiot because your kit is dogshit

[bleak oak]

going in as pmc with decent gear is $$$ - and I need $$$ right now, so as I don't know lighthouse, unless I go with only a pistol, it doesn't make sense at this point

[arctic zealot]

Dont listen to the scav haters

[vagrant cargo]

being a scav wont help u make money if u never survive

[bleak oak]

I survive most of the time on shoreline, for example, and make good money there. Just trying to learn lighthouse as well

so I can then go in as pmc

and know where tf I'm going
