[rotund surge]

aight

will keep wioth vepr for now then :p

i can take whatever i want with whatever zoom, i get sniped anyway

[sacred bay]

What lvl are u?

[rain wing]

what's usually the poinbt of no return if an armor piece has been fucked?

like <50%?

[rotund surge]

9

[hazy veldt]

entirely depends on the armor.

[sacred bay]

Lmfao get used to it

This game is nothing more than tetris teching you how to learn to die

[hazy veldt]

and what you're comfortable with.
Like I vendor anything below 70-80% usually.

[sacred bay]

Fucking disgraceful

[hazy veldt]

or relegate to a factory run armor.

[rotund surge]

xDDD

yes

100% true lool

[rain wing]

gamer scav

[sacred bay]

Bruh i can't find that ophthalmoscope no matter what

[shell kindle]

unfortunate

[rain wing]

check usec camp on woods

[shell kindle]

you are checking woods?

[hazy veldt]

scav case moonshine gang

[sacred bay]

Yea i ran woods for a few raids now

Scav and pmc

[shell kindle]

its a rare spawn

[hazy veldt]

brought me 4-5 now.

[rain wing]

@smoky moth and I found 2 already

[shell kindle]

probably need to run it a lot

[rain wing]

and I got another one on my scav

lmfao

[sacred bay]

Fuck u guys

XD

Yall playing on woods??

[rain wing]

@nikita gpu when? 🤗

[bold kernel]

i stole a raidbag loaded with raider loot in reserve near d2

[hazy veldt]

I give scavs moonshine, they bring me ophthalmoscopes.

[sacred bay]

Dude why do i find shitty ledx easier than a crappy doctor's opthalmoscope...

Same here, only they bring me fucking toolsets

[hazy veldt]

iirc I found like two in resort.

[sacred bay]

Oh and an ak 74

[hazy veldt]

give them more.

[bleak oak]

Will do another scav run on shoreline to help new tarkov players learn the map and learn the cache run to make some money and get gear. You're welcome to join us. Just dm me

in about 20 min

[sacred bay]

Will there be opthalmoscopes joining?

Could I "borrow" one real quick

[hazy veldt]

I mean the 4-5 ophthalmoscopes is over a hundred moonshines probably.

[rain wing]

you're checking at the usec camp in the back right?

at the stretcher

[sacred bay]

Ive had 6 raids on woods now. For some reason all my raids were empty except the last one ( loot was still present) no opthalmoscopes but alot of rare loot spawns

Fucking rigged man

I wanna cry

[sterile minnow]

do 6 more

[hazy veldt]

just keep trying.

[frank junco]

lol sorry one

[sacred bay]

Only if im close enough

[hazy veldt]

You're checking both emercom and usec camp?

[sacred bay]

Yea if i can. As a pmc yes tho

I might have to revisit some yt videos of all rare spawn items on woods

[rain wing]

eh

decent

[sacred bay]

Though i can't complain too much, found like 11 sugar from those raids

Those magazines are worth a fortune ^

[frank junco]

i found one in the tent at emercom, the video i saw didnt show that spot

[normal ermine]

you guys have any idea what I should do? I'm starting to only have interchange and shoreline tasks and I hate shoreline because how hard it is to enjoy.

[hazy veldt]

make sure to check the medbags and sports bag in emercom camp too.

[sterile minnow]

worth checking as a scav too, not everyone know of the spots/fully loot properly

[hazy veldt]

do 1 shoreline 'annoying 'quest a day.

[sacred bay]

Yea i always do since I'm addicted to those 2 bags specifically lmao

[hazy veldt]

shoreline can burn you the fuck out.

[normal ermine]

I wish I could do one a day, but they're all really annoying

[hazy veldt]

since it has so many repeating quests.

[normal ermine]

like go and place a shit ton of markers all over the place

[hazy veldt]

idk, I just did them at night, easy 10-15 minute runs.

[sacred bay]

Go to room 319
Go to room 205
Go kill a few scavs looking like papa smurf
Go back to room 319
Repeat pretty much

[normal ermine]

Oh shit I got therapist three and didn't even notice

now I can actually get decent shit

[sacred bay]

Though im surprised at the low amount of players playing shoreline

Usually raids tend to be dead... idk

It's rat haven map at this point...

[normal ermine]

let me guess, i only get labs keykard barter/buy at level 4?

[sacred bay]

Yep

For 166k which is a scam

[normal ermine]

166k? Thats like what they sell for to her

[frank junco]

i mean that used to be that market price

[sacred bay]

Why did they even remove that lol

Lowkey dumb

[normal ermine]

hmm, how much does around 15k euros cost compared to the 35 item barter for the items case

[hazy veldt]

depends, if you straight up buy from skier, then it's 152 rubles last I checked, per euro

but isn't it less than 15k euros now?

[sacred bay]

Leave Skier alone, its IRS fault

[normal ermine]

its like all of my money worth in euros

[sterile minnow]

damn dude, moonshine is doing me good today, x2 phase arreys in x2 moonshines

[hazy veldt]

it's like 2.3m

[normal ermine]

at 2.9m would cost me like 2.2mil to buy and its probably not worth

[hazy veldt]

if you buy from skier.

[sacred bay]

Bad investment

[hazy veldt]

If you slowly sell all your shit for euros and abuse the wrong estimate to get 'more money' on flea.

[hazy veldt]

not at all.

[normal ermine]

oh yeah I can sell shit for euros

[hazy veldt]

If you need space, it's a very solid option.

[sacred bay]

^^ should earn a few euros that way first

Buy off the remains

[hazy veldt]

I have 8.

[normal ermine]

I think I'd rather just save for a thicc case tbh

[hazy veldt]

not comparable really.

Thicc is 15-16m

[normal ermine]

the weapons case is only like 11 mil

[hazy veldt]

you could buy 6-7 items cases for that money.

[hazy veldt]

weapon case is absolute trash

do not buy the thicc weaponcase.

[normal ermine]

its not worth it?

[hazy veldt]

not at all

mechanic 3 barter for normal weapon case is 800k

mechanic 4 barter for thicc weapon case is like 2.4m

[normal ermine]

Oh damn

[hazy veldt]

however, you cannot put thicc weapon case inside items case.

[normal ermine]

how big is thicc item case?

[hazy veldt]

you can put normal weapon case in items case.

[woven fiber]

how much is this

[sterile minnow]

THICC

[normal ermine]

a good bit

[sterile minnow]

dummy t h i c c

[normal ermine]

like in comparison to standard edition slots lmao

[woven fiber]

irl price is this :DDD

[sterile minnow]

ik just memein

pretty sure most of the equipment would be x90 the price IRL

compared to pixels

[hazy veldt]

4-5 weapon cases inside items case = 200-250 slots for 5.5-5.9m

[normal ermine]

about 40k roubles on flea

[woven fiber]

ye

[normal ermine]

so how do I get a thicc items case? Is it just the therapist barter?

[woven fiber]

i found some tarkov market site shit

[hazy veldt]

196 slots.

[woven fiber]

33k avg

[normal ermine]

Holy shit

[hazy veldt]

same as junk case

thicc items also costs a huge chunk.

[normal ermine]

don't you get one from a therapist task?

[hazy veldt]

You do get 1 for 1 ledx + 1 ophthalmoscope at level 35 though.

yes.

[normal ermine]

level 35? fuck me

[hazy veldt]

that's why I got 8 items cases 😄

[normal ermine]

so if I have the money, item cases are good enough?

[hazy veldt]

For the most part.

[normal ermine]

and can you put like anything in items cases (besides other cases I assume?)

[hazy veldt]

you can put other cases too.

[normal ermine]

Oh sick

[scarlet jetty]

Only have 5, makes org so much easier

[woven fiber]

how much this combo worth

[normal ermine]

hmm, should I do punisher part 3 or shoreline tasks

[woven fiber]

cuz i hate it

[hazy veldt]

had medicine cases/holodilniks/grenade case in items cases for a long while.

[hazy veldt]

like 35-45k or whatnot iirc

[rain wing]

should I repair?

or let it ride a bit more

[hazy veldt]

this is what I use my items cases now.

[normal ermine]

holy shit

[woven fiber]

shouldnt it be able to go on it?

[hazy veldt]

but before mechanic 3, I mostly used them in these setups:
https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/sa3dw4/hoarder_life_hack_increasing_item_case_capacity/

[rain wing]

actually I should try that

well at least just stuff my wcase in there

[rain wing]

I think you might need a mount for that

[woven fiber]

can i get it without flea?

[hazy veldt]

you need one of the surefire compensators

[rain wing]

^

[hazy veldt]

Mechanic LL2 or Skier LL2 required afaik

[rain wing]

yeah

[scarlet jetty]

How I organise it personally, tags are outdated for the most part

[velvet panther]

anyone need a 2nd?

[rain wing]

check in lfg

or something

[sand wolf]

everyone send me a friend req on disc im testing sum please and ty

[hazy veldt]

I have this at the top that I dump new shit into, so I don't need to spend too much time between raids:

[rain wing]

wait how do I make it so it displays the tag like that?

[hazy veldt]

then some empty space to fill up and then hoarding area at the bottom.

[rain wing]

mine just becomes like this

[hazy veldt]

you can't for 1 slot

Unless maybe if you make them 1 symbol

[scarlet jetty]

Right under the MPPVs is my dump area

[rain wing]

ohh

[hazy veldt]

I like having the dump area so I don't need to scroll down

[scarlet jetty]

Oh yeah, fair enough, I just find having all the containers up at the top makes organising super easy

[hazy veldt]

I organize after I'm done raiding, out of the dump boxes to flea or hoarding containers below.

ie:

[rain wing]

should I turn the dollars into roubles?

wait

can I even do that?

[hazy veldt]

not easily.

dollars aren't very popular.

[rain wing]

meaning?

sadge

[hazy veldt]

*trading for dollars on flea aren't very popular.

but once you get PK3-4

you get solid dollar expenditure stuff.

[boreal briar]

if you buy mp5's from pk then sell to mechanic you lose like 1k per mp5

[hazy veldt]

like PRS QDC

[boreal briar]

i think at least, that was the tactic at the end of my first wipe

[rain wing]

hmm aight

wait $1 is ~150 rubles right?

[hazy veldt]

uhh... no?

[boreal briar]

because everyone got the 100k+ dollars from the end wipe event and people just did that for roubles

[median raven]

Pk 3 is worth

[hazy veldt]

Mechanic buys mp5 for like 6.8k?

[median raven]

Keep the usd

[rain wing]

almost there

[hazy veldt]

and it costs ~37.7k to buy an mp5?

so I don't see how that math adds up?

[boreal briar]

several wipes ago you'd lose about 1k per mp5

very clear that that'd change to now

[rain wing]

I'll do either that one reserve task where you need to pick up the item I forgor what it was called or the headshot scavs on shore quest

[hazy veldt]

136 from pk.

[boreal briar]

note the "i think" and "end of my first wipe"

[hazy veldt]

more if you abuse flea 'estimate'

flea estimates 1 dollar to be 123 rubles.

[rain wing]

mm aight

yeah I'll keep the usd

[boreal briar]

usd is nice for buying ammo and attachments

[hazy veldt]

going to want a lot of usd if you plan on running P90/Mp7/.45 AP

[boreal briar]

or 56a1

[hazy veldt]

No real reason to run that garbage though.

[boreal briar]

it's an alright round, treats me well

[rain wing]

556 or 56a1?

55a1 is better isn't it?

ll4

[boreal briar]

m80 dmrs are treating me like royalty recently

[hazy veldt]

55a1 is better yes, but both are medicore.

[rain wing]

556 just kinda poopie this wipe right?

[hazy veldt]

Yes.

same as 545.

But 556 gets fucked more, because you can't flea even the semi decent ones.

[rain wing]

whats wrong with 545 this wipe?

[hazy veldt]

7.62 BP exists.

[rain wing]

like I've heard it's bad but is there an actual reason?

[rain wing]

fair enough

[normal ermine]

this helmet is good right?

[hazy veldt]

good for vendoring for 90k

and buying a cheaper class4.

[normal ermine]

I found that and a bastion in the same raid

and another class 4 helm, but no space ;-;

[hazy veldt]

couldn't fraud your own helmet?

[normal ermine]

holy shit, almost there

[normal ermine]

you make it seem like i had a helmet lmao

[boreal briar]

5.56 and 5.45 have been treating me well this wipe idk what everyone is on about

[normal ermine]

all I took into raid was an akms with two spare mags, security rig, and a sling bag.

Brought out good money for the limited space I had

[hazy veldt]

it is possible to run mediocre rounds and do well.
But when 7.62 is literally better in every way, then why run 5.45?

[normal ermine]

Eventually found the tv rig with the four slot off a scav, made like 100-150k while marking a tank and ambulance, so I'm not mad.

[open zodiac]

does anyone know why some bosses just are passive then straight up kill you even though you are a scav and youve done nothing wrong?

[normal ermine]

bosses kill scavs unless you have 6+ rep

[boreal briar]

i don't have easy access to 7.62 bp and i cba farming raiders and shit to get it

even if i could buy it's expensive

[hazy veldt]

get 30, craft it.

[open zodiac]

okay thats understandable but what i dont get is how he walked pass me and then shot at me

[hazy veldt]

after a week you have like 1k+ which is usually enough.

[normal ermine]

they're passive for a few seconds usually, kind of gives you enough time to run if you randomly run into them

[boreal briar]

what even is the craft, i have level 3 work but i can't check rn

[normal ermine]

if you see a boss as a scav, generally just run xD

[open zodiac]

oh lol

[hazy veldt]

2 green, 2 blue powder for 120 rounds.

long craft, so I just put it overnight.

[normal ermine]

Oh shit I almost have prapor 3

just one more level and uno mas task

[hazy veldt]

but 58 damage / 47 pen / 63% armor damage is just obscene compared to 5XX

well 545 BS is sort of comparable, but only 40 damage.

[boreal briar]

goes from 2 to 3 shots at the same rpm

not a big difference

[hazy veldt]

BS has higher recoil penalty though.

Also the main difference is that the Mutant exists for 7.62, which has obscenely low effective recoil, compared to all aks.

[open zodiac]

is there a website were i can find the best ammo types

[hazy veldt]

many

[boreal briar]

go to the wiki and go to the ballistics page

[hazy veldt]

There's a few different sites, wiki or https://eft-ammo.com/nofoodaftermidnight, are popular.

for more indepth, there's also the https://tarkov-ballistics.com/

[woven fiber]

price?
???

[boreal briar]

can't go on flea

just keep

[bold kernel]

Theyre the best NVG's (other than T-17's)

[boreal briar]

you mean t-7's?

[hazy veldt]

200-280k to buy/barter from vendors.

[bold kernel]

Yes

[normal ermine]

Bouta lose my juiciest kit ever because I have to go to office and kill people

Most people would say its trash because I'm using an MPX

[shell kindle]

It is trash

What’s your definition of juicy lol

[normal ermine]

its my favorite gun

[normal ermine]

500k kit on factory

[shell kindle]

why is the mpx 500k

just screenshot your kit lol

[normal ermine]

not just the mpx

[hazy veldt]

why do you like the mpx?

[dusky geyser]

tbh long-barrel MCX with a Razor kinda slaps

[normal ermine]

its honestly just my favorite gun in any game I played, and I mean, yeah it may be bad in tarkov, but its still cheap and fun to use

[hazy veldt]

can't beat 'i like it'

[normal ermine]

like 40k for one off of flea, some come silenced, or you can straight up buy from pk for 361 USD

Can be expensive to mod, but really thats every gun

[dusky geyser]

PPSh

[normal ermine]

honestly would've just lost to the three man on factory I just wiped if it werent for the etg-c stim and cms I brought

[hazy veldt]

Well, if we're talking about economics in tarkov, then 9mm vector is dirt cheap and superior.

[stiff grove]

anyone have rb-st key and want to help me with revision?

[hazy veldt]

*slightly more expensive than MPX, but arguably better.

[normal ermine]

whats mcx?

[potent crater]

Dont bring big armor to fsctory imo

[dusky geyser]

.300 blackout rifle

[hazy veldt]

MCX is the .300 blackout gun.

[potent crater]

Mcx with .300 blaclout

[normal ermine]

I didn't, a 50k rig.

[hazy veldt]

but I meant MPX

[stiff grove]

anyone have rb-st key and want to help me with revision?

[potent crater]

Ok then dont worry about the loss

[normal ermine]

still relatively expensive

I didn't die, dw

[potent crater]

Ok

Bring 153 with flechette or mag buck

[normal ermine]

made it out with both my helm and armor untouched

[normal ermine]

no.

[potent crater]

Ok

[normal ermine]

I simply will not

Lmao condors saved my life

stopped me from getting head eyes

but my head was still blacked, but somehow, I survived xD

I think bc it lost health due to a light bleed

[rain wing]

how long does scav case module take to build?

oh nvm

80 hrs

[waxen creek]

i found something called a merin key in a jacket in factory my friend says to keep it because its good, what is it? im level 4 by the way

[rain wing]

lucky bastard

very good key

worth a lot on flea + there's some decent stuff in it

btw all these barters are for house key

[bleak oak]

In the end turn in 50k €

[rain wing]

[sacred bay]

Would take way too long... I'm still tryna earn kappa

[latent kelp]

Lvl 10 looking for help with tasks

[vast plume]

where should i loot on labs?

[rain wing]

[rain wing]

most of the goodies are in locked rooms

[vast plume]

i have some cards

[rain wing]

[rain wing]

there are good stuff in the offices

[earnest merlin]

@ripe hinge gtg

[vast plume]

yellow, purple, black

violet

even

[rain wing]

oh then hit all those doors lmfao

black has ledx and stim spawns

I forgot what violet had

I mean yellow

violet has some weapon spawns and rare spawns

[shell kindle]

Damn if only I could enhance the image to read the 1px size words

[drowsy oasis]

is it worth getting more than 30 round mags with mutant?

[finite helm]

violet to dark office is like 21sr to kiba. violet is like a mini version of dark office in my opinion

[kind oracle]

how do you put the N-15 on a helment or can you only have it on the head strap

[rain wing]

only certain helmets can put it on

and to put it on the helmets you need the mount

you can right click and use linked search

or whatever

on the helmet

and look for mounts

[kind oracle]

the only thing it show when i do the ling search the the armasight nvg head strap

link*

[rain wing]

on the helmet

not the nvg

[rain wing]

^

[kind oracle]

tried that and it will only let me do the pvs 14 not the n15

[rain wing]

oh wait I think the n15s can only be mounted on the headstrap

I forgor

[kind oracle]

well sht thats kinda a waste to not be able to put them on a helmet

[quiet stump]

anyone wanna carry me on labs?

[rain wing]

what do ya'll like for red dots?

I can't seem to find a nice one

[drowsy oasis]

drip

[finite helm]

@rain wing romeo8t, its just a cheaper eotech but with the same sight pattern

[rain wing]

hexgrid 💀

also the helmet will prolly fuck you

you might get tapped in the back of the head

also shit audio

[silent hamlet]

Should I build the shooting range or water collector first?

[shell kindle]

Water collector I guess?

You can just go offline raid for shooting range

[silent hamlet]

Right. Good point

[red sedge]

is a dorm 204 key good?

[crude widget]

what times in raid are the darkest?

[rain wing]

pretty much any dorms key that isn't marked is pretty dookie

[drowsy oasis]

im sped

[rain wing]

there are a few safe keys

[drowsy oasis]

not sped * lmfao

[vast plume]

how long is labs?

35 or 40

[drowsy oasis]

40

[vast plume]

yeah wonder who was scared and asked me to ext with them

[whole thistle]

🙃

[spiral flicker]

[shell kindle]

there are so many dorms keys like cmon man

whos got time

[spiral flicker]

Me but I am too lazy

[shell kindle]

i need to clean up my key

keys

i got too many

i wish there was a 1x1 100 container just for keys that can only go in the stash

[spiral flicker]

[calm summit]

i have 2.3 million rubles is it worth getting a junk box

[spiral flicker]

1x1 is too small

[shell kindle]

yes

[spiral flicker]

Yes

[shell kindle]

i mean theres a 1x1 dogtag case and keys arent larger than dogtags

we also need to keep the keys

so like

i feel there should be some more efficent way of doing it

[spiral flicker]

Yea but you can have even thousand of dogtags and like 200 keys so why would you need that

[shell kindle]

because 200 slots is 200 slots lol

you also dont have to keep the dogtags

like you can but you dont have to

you kinda have to keep keys

[spiral flicker]

You also don't need to keep keys

I mean

It would be sick to have some container to keys like 49 slots

But it's not necessary

[prime comet]

can someone explain what happened with the audio at the end?

ignore my friend

its very unfortunate

[unique plover]

I have 3 docs and a sicc and it’s perfect for the amount of keys I have

[long crystal]

Once you finish Extortionist you can get rid of the unknown key right

What about this

Is this safe to sell?

The door it opens is always open

just dont know why it's 50k

they're for barter

[unique plover]

Well what’s that key going for on flea

[olive bough]

It’s going 50k+ because of trader price.

[unique plover]

Gotcha I didn’t know I was just curious

[long crystal]

nevermind it's the factory map thats needed for intel 1

[violet furnace]

2 sicc, 4 keytools, 4 keycard holders and I still run out of space for keycards, and keytools I all died with :|

And all keycard are fir

[unique plover]

Sounds like you need to use some keycards lol

[violet furnace]

Idk how

[violet furnace]

I do sometimes, but i don't like going solo, didn't learn map very much, and friend that I goon labs isnt playing now

[long crystal]

East wing 108

[unique plover]

Pistol run and avoid PVP, loot n leave

[violet furnace]

Nah

I just have high rep, 8/10 scavs have it

[unique plover]

Or craft a violet keycard and flea it

[long crystal]

I need like a service where you just screenshot your entire inventory and someone tells you what to keep and what to sell

I have soooo many barter items stashed away

I bascially never sell them

[unique plover]

I’d do it if I was home

[long crystal]

like I have barely 200k to my name rn but apparently there is 13.2M in my stash?

[violet furnace]

Idk, using vex on all maps other than lh and getting 0.01 rep from it now, so yea

And I do rep farming on factory

I know, friend that I go on labs isnt playing now, and I don't like solo

Solo i think I will die in a sec, but duo I go on 5 man squad and kill

[long crystal]

Thank you for the VPO skier

something terrible is about to begin

[violet furnace]

I know a lot, I don't get carried. In every game when I play solo I am scared, but duo even when I carry that man I have more confidence

[long crystal]

I'm only level 9 so I don't really know what to put on it lol

[violet furnace]

I mean, only on labs i shit myself, other maps I try going solo and killing

[unique plover]

The donger grip fits on there doesn’t it

[violet furnace]

And I go solo, learning map

And offline with more raiders

Ima go solo today, but in school rn

Hmm

Good point

I don't hoard, just i Play sometimes, and my dad never

Gona do quests on labs then

Go full Chad mode, not pistol

Sanitar lab

Use keycard with blue marking

Man

I am scared on labs

Maybe reserve BC of rats

But i Play solo

Ok

I will

Don't hurt me ;(

[unique plover]

Labs is fun

Honestly kinda an easy map to navigate too

Just look super carefully for loose loot on EVERYTHING

[long crystal]

wow edit presets is awesome

[unique plover]

Yeah fuck the basement

I can get to the elevator and that’s pretty much it lol

[lost sky]

the 6000 usd for unlock peacekeeper tasks worth it?

or do people save moeny for a bit then do it

[remote kettle]

yes

[unique plover]

100% worth it

[glacial moss]

tbh exchanging money for exp

always worth

[unique plover]

You need to unlock his quests to level him up anyways

[misty ginkgo]

What else do you need, tbh? - it's smart to know, but i learned the other extract after a month of playing main Labs. I did pretty good without knowing them.

[unique plover]

Lol I only know that elevator and the hangar gate

[misty ginkgo]

Depends on the amount of xp, for the amount of xp tbh.

[unique plover]

Cargo elevator? Nah. The sewer exit? No thanks

[misty ginkgo]

Do you know where Y is?

[unique plover]

Y?

[misty ginkgo]

The other button upstairs

I think it's Hangar

I don't remember the normal name

[unique plover]

Oh the yellow room?

[misty ginkgo]

Other button, yeah.

[unique plover]

Where you can silence the alarm?

To open the gate? I’m confused

[misty ginkgo]

To upen the gate - that gate is called Y.

[unique plover]

Oh ok yeah I know where that is

[misty ginkgo]

That's what the lady announces when you open it - so that all the chads can find you.

[unique plover]

I always just called it garage or something

I usually silence it though

[misty ginkgo]

Yeah, i didn't remember the name and always uses Y.

I love her - can save me from the rats.

[unique plover]

“Attention, some bitch is trying to leave. Seek and destroy”

[misty ginkgo]

She tells me if they are trying to extract.

[unique plover]

Meanwhile I’m already dead from the raiders lol

[misty ginkgo]

Then im gonna get head-eyes when i forgot to check that one dark corner they sit in 😦

[misty ginkgo]

Idk why people are "scared" of Labs tbh.

People think that people run Slick and Rys-T every game lolll

[unique plover]

Lol I killed a 3 stack with MMACs te other day

Like what are you doing here, get out

People are scared of labs because of the entry cost and no other reason

And no insurance obviously

[remote kettle]

i cant buy cards yet

[misty ginkgo]

I once jumped down in the big hole from server, to the button activating elevator in the basement. (under black) - and then 3 raiders stood there. A day after the new raider ui. I got beamed so hard 😦

My friends just stood and looked at me from upstairs.

[unique plover]

I’m trying to make that jump without breaking my legs

It’s kinda hard. I know what I have to do but I can never manage to do it

[misty ginkgo]

That's literally the first thing i did - get to lvl 32 and just play Labs from then.

Did quests if i didn't have any more cards - and couldn't buy more because of the restocks.

The raiders ran to their normal spots.

One of them got head-eyes, the other killed them all.

[stiff isle]

Is buying the lucky scav container worth it?

[olive bough]

Absolutely

[stiff isle]

What can I put in it?

[olive bough]

All barter items and components.

[stiff isle]

Ok thx

[olive bough]

Stuff like bolts, nuts, screws, nails, duct tape etc

[topaz violet]

how is the mcx?

[remote kettle]

high recoil, fun to use, cool gun

[prime comet]

Bad imo

I’ve learned the hard way, that 762 weapons > other full auto

[topaz violet]

thanks

i been using the aks-74u for punisher and i love it lol

[unique plover]

It’s okay to have that opinion as long as you realize that it’s wrong

[remote kettle]

which punisher?

[topaz violet]

punisher part 3

[topaz violet]

nothing wrong with being wrong as long as i dont preach it as fact ahah

[remote kettle]

ah yeah that one

[unique plover]

It’s just kinda expensive to mod out decently

Compared to another 5.45 Ak

[topaz violet]

oh i just slap a scope and thats it

aha

[misty ginkgo]

ks-23 is the only good gun

[unique plover]

High recoil and terrible MOA at range

[remote kettle]

and even then it still is behind the other 5.45s

[teal oak]

SHERPAS I NEED YOUR HELP
If a scav AI take your pmc guns after you die, do you get them through insurance? AI and not player.

[unique plover]

I don’t think so

[remote kettle]

if it stays in raid and doesnt get extracted you get it back

[unique plover]

I’m pretty sure if a scav takes it you don’t get it back tho

[misty ginkgo]

That's actually a great question, now it annoys me that i don't know it.

[unique plover]

It happened to my friend and his flir

He died to a guard and never got it back but got everything else

Like he went in with a hexgrid and he got that back

[teal oak]

maybe some other dudes stole it?

[remote kettle]

if it stays in raid you get it back, im almost 100% sure. even if a scav has it

[teal oak]

thanks

[long crystal]

If you get a mag back from insurance, will it have your ammo in it?

[remote kettle]

cant insure ammo, so no

[icy fable]

I've noticed fresh players (but def not "new" players, fresh after wipe players) using mosin and just constantly reloading while walking/running from one side to the other. 2 questions: it's to level the mastery skill, right? and does it makes such a big difference/does it count that much that it's valid to just keep cycling and discarding one round at a time for that skill?

[remote kettle]

sniper skill

quests require it at level 9 and its tedious to level up normally

[icy fable]

ahhhh, so it doesn't count towards the actual weapon, but the weapon usage skill?

[remote kettle]

yea bolt action sniper rifle skill

[icy fable]

*weapon type usage skill

alright

good insight

is it a decent amount of skill at least or will it involve basically discarding hundreds of rounds? (assuming normal usage beside the round cycling)

[remote kettle]

idk i havent bothered with it

[icy fable]

I use mosin+pistol/kedr a lot actually, might start taking 15 rounds extra just so I can do that passively then

(15 rounds extra, per raid, lps ammo isn't that expensive)

[merry swift]

It will involve hundreds of rounds

But you gotta reach sniper level 5 through (ab)using sniper xp

[sleek briar]

Also be aware of the maximum amount you can level a skill effectively before getting diminishing returns

[merry swift]

There are a total of 4 levels to be gained from quest rewards

So you have to gain a good amount of xp yourself

LPS rounds are cheap so people usually just cycle them as they go

[icy fable]

oh yeah, you get X for the first action and then increasingly less for each of the same action per raid, right?

[merry swift]

If you wanna be economical you can do it stationary and pick up the rounds

[icy fable]

to impede you from just loading in with 500 rounds and spending the whole round cycling rounds 😛

[merry swift]

No. Look at your skill bar in raid, it'll show a blue up arrow (increased gains), no arrow (normal gains) or a red arrow (reduced gains)

Tbf reloading a mosin still gets you decent xp even at diminishing returns

So you can totally load in with 500 rounds if you wanted to

[icy fable]

ahem (let me be an idiot for a second) my skill bar?

[merry swift]

Open your inventory, go to your skill bar at the top

It's a separate tab

[icy fable]

ah ok, not such a bit idiot then

I though you meant a bar on hud

and I though I was gonna be blown away for not seeing something that obvious

but yeah, i'll check it next time, tbh I am not sure if I ever opened the skill tab while in raid

[merry swift]

You never really have to

It can be a way to see if you landed a shot

If that matters

[icy fable]

breaks immersion tbh xD I've even consciously avoided checking task progress to see if I've landed long range shots or where I can't confirm a dead body on the ground after a kill

[merry swift]

Oh no I 100% do that

I was doing test drive pt 1 earlier this wipe and dropped a guy

But I checked my progress and it turned out he was just playing dead

[pearl pier]

how do I get an rb-st key for Surplus Goods?

[sleek briar]

Buy it off the flea or spend the next 100 years digging through jackets 🙂

[olive bough]

Just open jackets

Or ask someone to open it for you

[pearl pier]

oh god

is it worth the 1.5 mil tho

[devout moon]

i have the key if you want i can help you

[remote kettle]

buy or get lucky

[rain wing]

is there a way to quick move everything into another container?

or

[remote kettle]

no

[rain wing]

:(

💀

80 fucking hours

[sleek briar]

That's just 3 sleeps

[rain wing]

I can't last 3 sleep cycles without gambling 😩

[olive bough]

You’ll change you mind very soon kek

[sleek briar]

Tarkov: Oh hi you completed blood war part 2 after it took you 3 weeks to find the fuel conds? Congrats as a reward fuel conditioner in every container!

🙃

[olive bough]

yes

[stiff isle]

Does the plane flying over woods have any use?

[sleek briar]

Makes things loud

Can fart without anyone hearing it

[stiff isle]

but it doesnt drop anything right?

[sleek briar]

Drops thoughts and prayers

[stiff isle]

ok

lol

[sleek briar]

Nah it drops the crate

Just can't seee it if far

[olive bough]

The airdrop has some nice loot in it

[stiff isle]

where does it drop?

at what location?

[sleek briar]

Along its flight path... 😄

Random

[stiff isle]

ok

[olive bough]

Well there are set spots for it

But you need to learn them

[stiff isle]

ok thx

[rain wing]

I may have made a slight miscalculation

now broke as shit

[sleek briar]

I would like to report a scav for offensive language 😦

[rain wing]

bully pscavs?

[sleek briar]

Bully AI scav

Calling me pizdec

[olive bough]

Eh I’ve been in worse condition

[rain wing]

:(

[olive bough]

Do you have bitcoin farm up?

[rain wing]

went from 3m to 300k

[rain wing]

level 1 yeah

[hybrid sphinx]

dollars will be handy to have, good investment

[olive bough]

Yep

[rain wing]

I didn't buy the dollars I bought 10 fucking psus

[olive bough]

Then wait for a bitcoin and you’re good in the hood

[rain wing]

for this dumbass bitcoin mining rig

and a vpx

and like 3 lions

lmfao

[olive bough]

I have like 3 bitcoin in my stash sitting there waiting to be sold for an higher price

I want to sell them at 350k+

[rain wing]

anything I should sell to get some money back?

[hybrid sphinx]

much money there

[sleek briar]

Can get up to some real kinky shit with all that tape

[olive bough]

Also, earlier in the wipe, when I was stupid, I made the mistake of doing the 10 bitcoin for weapons case barter. I regret it to this day

[rain wing]

😳

[prime comet]

I hate myself

[olive bough]

Those 3 thermites are already 150k in the bank

[rain wing]

I feel like there's some random stuff here I have leftover from scav runs

that I forgot to sell

[olive bough]

Tell me, why is that.

Also those gold chains are 100k

[prime comet]

I left my generator on and alt f4’d last night so I won’t be on for 7 hours

[olive bough]

GP coins can push for 40k at times

[prime comet]

Rip my fuel

[olive bough]

Do you not have a bitcoin farm?

[hybrid sphinx]

look at trades for your matts, red rebel / sicc case etc, if its not used for anything u like sell it

[prime comet]

However, I nearly have intel 2, just gotta do nutrition 3 last

[prime comet]

Working on it

[olive bough]

[prime comet]

I’m literally 1 more craft from intelligence 2

Then I can I think

[olive bough]

Intel 2 is pretty rad

[rain wing]

should I craft ofzs?

[prime comet]

I’m doing it for the scav case

[rain wing]

for the quest

mr prappy

[prime comet]

You need 5 for a quest

[rain wing]

yeah

[prime comet]

So I’d say so

I’ve only found 2 In a week

[rain wing]

god save me

[olive bough]

Can’t remember what you unlock from regulated materials

[prime comet]

No idea

I’m so bad at questing

But if I do one more prapor quest I get lv3

[rain wing]

barter for ash 12

prapor ll4

[olive bough]

[rain wing]

doesn't lead to anything though

[prime comet]

I’ve never touched the ash 12

[olive bough]

Silenced version or nah?

[rain wing]

unsilenced

there's 2 of them

[prime comet]

Ales

[olive bough]

Rip, silenced is more worth

[prime comet]

I made some juicer guns last night

[olive bough]

Very good

What’d you make

[prime comet]

I know it’s only an m4, but it’s so nice to shoot

[olive bough]

[sleek briar]

Long boy

[prime comet]

Recoil doesn’t exist on either while mag dumping

[olive bough]

Those M4 be lookin fine

[prime comet]

That’s a short mutant

[sleek briar]

Long m4 boy

[olive bough]

Oh other’s a mutant LOL I’m dumb

[prime comet]

The long one was like another 140k ontop of what I spent

I’m gonna run the mutant into labs

Zero gear fear with it, I only paid for the pgrip and the hand guard

[olive bough]

You gonna do it now? Cause I put together a labs kit I could use

[prime comet]

I’m not home for another god knows how long

[olive bough]

I see

[prime comet]

That’s what I was gonna run

[olive bough]

Juicy

[prime comet]

Behemoth

[rain wing]

what armor is that?

ana?

[prime comet]

Gen 4 assault

[rain wing]

ohh

no stomach pro though

[prime comet]

I posted last night but I have so much armour to burn

I haven’t touched half of what I own yet

I wanna start using it all

[rain wing]

should I upgrade to workbench ll3?

[olive bough]

I got 2 Gzhels from a scav case, so I might run one of those

[prime comet]

Might swap the gen4 for the avs

[olive bough]

Do it. I dare you.

[rain wing]

It'll leave me with like 10k left 💀

god save me.

[prime comet]

One scav lighthouse and you’re up 400k minimum

[rain wing]

e z

[prime comet]

Pog

[rain wing]

where do you even check while scavving light?

[olive bough]

Must. Upgrade.

[rain wing]

I usually just hit stashes customs

[prime comet]

Depends on spawn

If you’re near rogues I always go for them then the warehouses

If not, then red chalet and down to the construction area on the road, then to rogues

[sleek briar]

Always check sports bags kids

[olive bough]

I’m getting poorer, I’m below 3 Mil

[prime comet]

I dipped to 10mil after loothouse made me rich

But I’ve also doing good gear wise, just helmets I’m starting to lose out on now

[sleek briar]

Propaganda. Never anything useful in loot house

[prime comet]

No but it’s easy money

And money is useful

TLDR; false

[rain wing]

should I just sell this?

[prime comet]

Never

I love the rfb

[rain wing]

yeah I would keep it but

[sleek briar]

It's terrible, you can give it to me I'll dispose of it for you

[rain wing]

💀 I need some to throw out

[sleek briar]

Oh my sweet summer child

[rain wing]

ks 23m 💀

[prime comet]

Buy one mag of m80 for it and run it into night loothouse with cheap nvg

[rain wing]

one mag??

[prime comet]

Chuck a valday on it and chill

[rain wing]

I mean I can bring more than one lmfao

[prime comet]

One tap rogues

Loot em

Leave

Profit

[rain wing]

but other pmc scary

also

[olive bough]

Actually, do you think the vulcan (Night vision scope, x3.5) is any good?

[prime comet]

I got 5 manned in night time tbf

But by 2 teams

[rain wing]

bear on light house 💀

[prime comet]

One duo and a trio

Killed the duo and the 3 man got me

[olive bough]

There was loot for one of eqch.

[prime comet]

And I had 2 rogues looted so

I made their life easy

[olive bough]

Hm, if I stay on the mountain near dock, and bring a powerful enough scope (say, a x8), do you think I’ll be able to snipe the rouges with an SVD

[rain wing]

will I not get buttfucked by the rogues as a bear?

[olive bough]

Not if it’s nighttime

[prime comet]

Not at night

[prime comet]

The one near the main road?

[rain wing]

so night time with an rfb and nvgs?

[prime comet]

Yeah try it

[rain wing]

or should I bring like a thermal sight

are there cheap thermals?

[prime comet]

Yeah

No

Not cheap thermals

If they were cheap I’d live on woods because I do good on that map as it is

I’d be unstoppable with thermals

[olive bough]

Well, actually.

There is a relatively cheap thermal.

But you need LL2-3 jager, can’t remember

[rain wing]

is it actually magnified?

or is it the fucked reflex thermal

[olive bough]

Yep

Magnified

At LL3, jager has a barter for the NERFGUN, that Saiga12

It has a thermal on it

And it the barter goes for about 400k

[rain wing]

400k

hmm

[olive bough]

That’s the cheapest you can go with thermals

It’s not that good, but it gets the job done

Oh I think you can get it for a bit cheaper

Not sure tho

LL2 workbench craft

Compare them if u want

[sleek briar]

Grinding that sniper skills 😧 Hate sniping

[rain wing]

sniping is p fun

[olive bough]

Flir has only 21 Hz ewww

[rain wing]

I can bring an svd to lighthouse

would that do the job?

[hybrid sphinx]

oh it does

[olive bough]

SVD max dura has an MOA of 1.15 iirc

[olive bough]

Lower dura = less accurate

[rain wing]

yeah

I just repaired it

would lps cut it?

[olive bough]

I doubt it

SNB is the way to go

[rain wing]

what's another alternative which won't burn a whole into my pockets

not prapor ll4 yet

[olive bough]

You can craft 80 SNB for 1 red

Takes a bit

[rain wing]

what workbench level?

?

3?

[olive bough]

2 iirc

[rain wing]

oh

2

alr then

[sleek briar]

I'm doing LPS leg shots on scavs for grinding that sniping skill

Like a kid pulling legs off a fly

[rain wing]

wait is this svd already good?

or can I improve recoil

I'll prolly change the sight

wait so I just go up on the cliff and shooty shooty?

[hybrid sphinx]

might want a stronger scope

[rain wing]

yeah

thats what I thought too

[foggy stratus]

Vudu or vortex

[rain wing]

4x prolly won't be enough

[foggy stratus]

Either one is good, just stick to those 2 for svd

[rain wing]

ffs

broke as shit

[hybrid sphinx]

at this rate you cant even cover insuranse

[rain wing]

yeah

I can't

lmfao

I'll go scav first

[foggy stratus]

Gotta get ur money up jeez

[rain wing]

I was sitting at a decent ~2mil

then kinda crafted

scav case

bitcoin mining

[foggy stratus]

2 mill ain’t shit. I go up and down 4-6 mill every day off deaths and survives alone

[rain wing]

and workbench 3

[rain wing]

I haven't really bothered hitting all the good loot spawns yet

[foggy stratus]

Might want to

[rain wing]

don't even have the keys for some

where do you usually run?

[boreal briar]

lighthouse is good for money

even on a hatchet run i can make up to 300-500k on one raid

[hybrid sphinx]

atleast bring a pistol, your just live bait at that point

[boreal briar]

i usually do i was just making a point

[rotund surge]

damn weapon looks good af

but sucks

[austere hound]

Pdw stock for more ergo. Recoil doesn't really matter imo

[marsh dagger]

this is a noob question but when ur aiming down iron sights, what part of the metal do u aim at the head, cuz i put the tip of the middle metal part on their head and tap but i keep getting thorax kills

[boreal briar]

what gun

[austere hound]

Aim at a wall & shoot. See for yourself

[marsh dagger]

AK

[boreal briar]

rear sight on the gun?

[marsh dagger]

um i actually dunno, maybe? im using the basic scav guns and their sights

[boreal briar]

do you have a fat bit of metal when you ads that cock blocks the front sight

[sleek briar]

Is the rangefinder decent to bring with you for sniping?

I tend to be pretty awful at approximating range 😄

[boreal briar]

yeah

[boreal briar]

mate that's not an ak

[marsh dagger]

i dont have an ak on hand rn but it looks the same

with the iron sights, the little triple bars | | |

i just point the middle one at the tip of the head

[boreal briar]

dilanie i have a very easy and simple solution for you

[marsh dagger]

yea?

[boreal briar]

have you tried putting a sight on the gun

[sleek briar]

🤯

[boreal briar]

ikr

[marsh dagger]

no im trying to get good with the iron sights cuz like the scopes i hit heads with

thats why i was asking

but yea i do put scopes on generally

[wispy marten]

If you’re using scav guns then they won’t be accurate

[boreal briar]

^

[wispy marten]

The worse the durability = less accurate

[marsh dagger]

ohhhh

[boreal briar]

as guns get shittier and shittier durability the worse the MOA gets

[wispy marten]

And when it’s that low it can make quite a big difference even at like medium range

[rotund surge]

wtf happening?

I can't do anyuthing

switch weapons

unequip stuff

[boreal briar]

in a raid?

[rotund surge]

drag stuff

bots

[rigid wind]

who is the hardest boss?

[sleek briar]

The hardest boss was you all along

[boreal briar]

difficult to say because they're all difficult for different reasons and they behave very differently

[sleek briar]

Got a daily to kill Sanitar but the idiot never spawns for me 🦖

[boreal briar]

fun

[marsh dagger]

so the best way to win fights with scav guns is 1. close range engagements to reduce the durability(accuracy) dropoff or 2. put a scope on since scopes are more accurate vs ironsights?

[remote kettle]

depends on what you judge "hardest boss" by. in a 1 on 1 fight 100% killa, if you take in the guards gluhar is super tricky, sanitar is very hard CQC because his guards are super geared ETC

[marsh dagger]

what do i need to do to reduce sway when aiming down sights

[remote kettle]

scopes dont affect the accuracy of the gun

[sleek briar]

alt

[marsh dagger]

ty so much holyy

[surreal wedge]

Would a shotgun or leg meta smg be good for tagilla farming?

[rigid wind]

tagilla is stupid easy anything works

[floral hornet]

I just started to tarkov and i dont have good stuff and i only know about customs. Can anyone help me?

[hazy veldt]

[rose relic]

how to unlock MK47 guys

[primal breach]

my last labs raid

it was dead asf but it was swarming with raiders

[drowsy kernel]

damn, the double hex with the ledx, nice job

[drowsy kernel]

quest and level 4 skier

[rose relic]

Im LL4 rn, but no quest like that.

[drowsy kernel]

the quest is called "bullshit"

[primal breach]

ty, thought I was gonna get one tapped by a raider

[drowsy kernel]

they be deadly asf this wipe, i got headshotted 5 times in under a second by one

[primal breach]

i had to take a mule to properly go to extract

[gusty nymph]

Rogue's terrify me. That's why I never set foot on reserve

Tasks or not I need a 5 men crew to get through it

[prime comet]

It’s raiders on reserve

They’re a lot easier than rogues

[gusty nymph]

Rogues are the guys in lighthouse then?

[prime comet]

Don’t fear them, they’re just slightly bigger scavs

[gusty nymph]

Cuz those are easy af

[prime comet]

Yeah rogues are lighthouse only

[gusty nymph]

oh nvm then I solo them on scav

[prime comet]

Yeah you’re fine

Rogues are a pain if they get a kick on you but that’s about it

[gusty nymph]

I always die on reserve to the rogues then

Never made it out

[sleek briar]

Slightly bigger scavs that will snap to your head and head eyes you from 100m with a shotgun in a split second 😄

[prime comet]

Raiders?? Lmao
