To be fair Valday and Vudu are pretty much the same

spiral flicker
#

Nah

arctic lake
#

Tac-30 superior in my opinion

spiral flicker
#

Tac-30 is good on smaller maps imo

arctic lake
#

It dosent look as good but it has the better retical

spiral flicker
#

Something like customs

lost sky
#

Which traders should I prioritize leveling first

misty ginkgo
arctic lake
#

All of them?

violet light
#

I mainly use the TAC-30, but the sight picture on the kick is annoying vs the vudu

arctic lake
#

Oh god, Go look at it with Unsuppressed .366

#

From a 209

#

Its Horrible

spiral flicker
#

.366 op sshhdoge

arctic lake
#

Yes

#

Thats why its my main gun

#

Very cheap

#

Very powerfull

spiral flicker
#

5.45 not op, expensive to mod, very weak sshhdoge

arctic lake

7.62x51 expensive to mod, Expensive to shoot, Semi weak

M80 prices where at 2k rubles per round last night if you cant buy from pk

spiral flicker
#

I mean

Who doesn't have lvl 2 pk

arctic lake
#

My freinds who want to run RFB’s

spiral flicker
#

Round for like 200 roubles

violet light
spiral flicker
arctic lake
#

I end up brining like 700 rounds each raid for them to mag fill at the start

spiral flicker
arctic lake
#

Then they take the rest in their containers

violet light
#

or because they don't have PK2? doge_doog

arctic lake

#

lmao you're the real MVP of the team then

spiral flicker

I mean PK 2 is like 5 quests

remote kettle

pk2 is so easy.

spiral flicker

@violet crystal what's wrong with the wiki maps? You got at least 2 amazing maps in 2d and 3d?

Bro I am so fuckin lazy to do quests from pk to get lvl and rep eft_crybear

Lol

spiral flicker
#

I am on marking tanks quest on snoreline

arctic lake
#

Pistol run it

spiral flicker
#

Why eft_What

austere ermine
#

I pistol run every run

arctic lake
#

Im on humanitarian aid

sleek briar

I have a conundrum. Keep hoarding GPUs for if I eventually get farm level 3 or just sell them for the dosh 🤔

arctic lake

Just need to mark the vics

I mean late or not money's money 😄

I'll never do pistol run unless I'll lose like 50 mil sshhdoge

I have 7 gpus i cant do anythijg with

#

Farm 2 requires mechanic 3

prime comet
#

Or give em to me for mine lmao

remote kettle
#

its insanely expensive, and youll make more money selling the GPUs than what youll make for the bitcoin

arctic lake
#

Mec 3 is level 30

remote kettle
#

farm 2 might be worth, but farm 3 def isnt

violet light
#

however, if you don't care about that dough then get solar and upgrade level 3 for that completionist satisfaction

prime comet
#

Man i can get intel 2 when I get in

#

But then it’s like a 60 hour craft for scav box

arctic lake
#

Im still debating on the scav box

#

Its like a 3mil unlock

austere ermine
#

I just ignored my hideout and kinda regret it, haven’t even got intel 2

prime comet
#

If you have the money spare do it

violet light
prime comet
#

I’ve already got all the bits for it

#

Inside a junk box waiting

remote kettle
#

ive maxed most of the "basic components" missing intel 3, air filter, BTC farm, scav case and library

violet light
#

Helps you find FIR junk for dailies and quests and, on average, seems to make more than it costs in the long run

prime comet
#

I still need to do btc farm

#

But I needed intel 2 first right?

remote kettle
#

i just dont think its really worth

remote kettle
prime comet
#

Ok nice

arctic lake
#

So btc farm 1 makes very little profit

prime comet
#

If it can self sustain a Permanent fuel supply

#

That’s all I want

arctic lake
#

But it keeps the lights on

remote kettle
#

which requires lvl 3 security, medstation and nutrition

prime comet
#

Got all them already

violet light
#

You breakeven on fuel at about 26 or 27 GPUs

prime comet
#

Hideout is pricey but it’s becoming enjoyable

arctic lake
#

And any fuel tanks you find in raid are strait profit

so is there basically no point in btc 1?

remote kettle

#

Ok nice

other stuff as in?

prime comet
#

Time to stop using silver tanks and chuck 4 blues in for profit

violet light
#

Crafting stuff and water filter

remote kettle
#

with 10 its 29

arctic lake
#

It takes about 1.3 fuel tanks to make a btc at level 1 farml, Which cost around 230k id say, Sells for 330k

remote kettle
#

for 350k ish

rain wing
#

that's funny

prime comet
#

So like 30 gpus will cost about 12 mil

rain wing
#

I don't have a single gpu 😎

prime comet
#

Is there a cap on them?

arctic lake
remote kettle
prime comet
#

Or can I use like 50 gpus

#

spiral flicker
#

I think my mining rig just upgraded but I am not home sshhdoge

rain wing

#

Level 1 is 10 gpu

rain wing

went fucking broke buying all the parts for scav case and gpu rig

remote kettle
arctic lake
#

Level 2 is 25 i think

prime comet
#

Ahhh ok

violet light
prime comet
#

I’ll invest all the way bet

spiral flicker
#

Scav case gamble op

prime comet
#

I make enough money on lighthouse runs

violet light
#

But practical cap is 25 since solar power is a huge money sink

prime comet
#

I have 3 moonshine chilling in my inv for it

spiral flicker
#

95k or moonshines

remote kettle
#

moonshine overall has a decent profit chance. that or 95k to make money

arctic lake
#

My ledx craft finished

prime comet
#

Moonshine it is

spiral flicker
#

I am able to craft them so it's way cheaper

arctic lake
#

Lets go

prime comet
#

It’s 3 free runs at it

arctic lake
#

600k profit

remote kettle
#

intel isnt worth doing from what i heard, unless you get the super rare keys like rb-st

prime comet
#

Because I got super lucky on woods

spiral flicker
#

There is a lot of places where moonshine can spawn

remote kettle
spiral flicker
spiral flicker
prime comet
#

It’s like one free

#

For doing 2 crafts basically

remote kettle
#

ignoring hideout skills

violet light
remote kettle
violet light
#

So if you plan to run say... one thousand intels over a wipe it might be worth it

spiral flicker
#

I was hoarding water filters so when I build my water collector 3 I had like 50 of them

prime comet
#

Damn that’s worth it

violet light
#

or are really hunting for lab cards

prime comet
#

That’s moonshine profit anyway

#

Letalone if you get a lucky scav case run

remote kettle
#

8 hours for ~80-100k profit if you can snipe materials = 10k ish per hour to cover fuel

#

although water alone makes more money i think

spiral flicker
#

I mean I like moonshine because there is good chance to profit but it's so sad that you can't rly get some keys. I am so sad that I don't have marked key for dorms eft_crybear eft_crybear

remote kettle
#

1 water filter for 60 makes 1.5 superwater. 1 superwater sells for 80-90k. 2/3 filter = 40k -> 90k in 3 hours.

prime comet
#

It’s good passive income

arctic lake

But I’m then 3 hours I can make roughly 2mil on loothouse runs if I live

for leveling up strength, u can do it with melee, so my question is, can i just knife a wall and it counts as a melee hit, or do i need to hit a player

it will probably wipe in 2-3 months if its gonna follow the most common pattern

same as leveling guns, hit people or reload

# remote kettle what bug?

Basically HAMR scope when set to scope, when switched to deltapoint and auto, continue to shoot where i believe the hamr is supposed to point? the camera isnt set right? OVERALL tested previously that's where the laser points

whole thistle
#

It's crazy how fast shotgun master goes up lmao
I have ARs and AKs like 1/3 of the way to level 2 and I use them all the time, I ran shotguns for 2 hours the other day and it's almost the same xp

serene reef
#

i have to reload to get rid of that

#

like if i unload the mag and reload after switching to deltapoint it works just fine

remote kettle
serene reef
#

but i have to switch to deltapoint BEFORE reloading

serene reef

if i reload then switch it stays the same

I want those cool animations ykyk @remote kettle

Any tips on not getting obliterated by the rogues on lighthouse? 🤔 Sniping doesn't seem to work as they just spray me down and murder me over on the mountains

remote kettle
serene reef
#

nvm- if i just switch to deltapoint and auto, it doesnt fix it

#

:O

#

I needed to look through the deltapoint BEFORE reloading

#

Looking through hamr before switching auto and delta works too

#

just going into deltapoint and then canceling ads and then going ads fixes it too

#

that's just sooo weird

They shld add obesity into tarkov lol. To stop rats and exfil campers. Like if u sit still ur obesity goes up and if u run around it goes down.

serene reef
#

camera recoil also is HUGE when the gun shoots not where it aims, but when it starts working properly feels like 0 recoil

serene reef
#

will literally keep running in place or prone to standing etc

But what does obesity do to rats camping

does this have unlimited uses or something?

its a whole bottle my guy 😄

#

ok nvm

marsh dagger
#

does it ever hit 0% leveling or is the max reduction 25% speed to level

split dagger
#

50% less of what you would get

serene reef
#

basically

#

if you earn 100 exp in given skill

#

if its 125 you get 125 instead

#

if you have the 25% multiplier

#

you only get 25exp even if you worked hard for the 100

#

when you first run in raid overweight

#

it counts till you stop running i believe

#

that first run is 1.25x

#

then after you run some more

#

the multiplier will become 0.5x instead of 1x

#

but if you stop running and rest after 3min you get back to 0.75x and then 1x after 16min

#

is what its saying

#

dunno how those two apply

#

but if you click to skills ingame in tab

#

you can see the indicators telling you what you're at

marsh dagger
#

oh okay, cuz i was just curious if i just sat in a house and ran around and depleted stamina in one run, wait for full regen, run again and then repeat for 30-50 minutes, would it ever hit 0 point gain, or is the max just 75% reduction

So running a Vepr wa a great idea. Nobody picked them up and my insurance is full of them! The only down side is I need to do tarkov acrobatics to store them into my stash

#

@gusty nymph what ammo were you using in the vepr

serene reef

Best way from what im aware is

#

make yourself slightly overweight

#

and then run as far as possible

Ah yes, Tarkov Tetris indeed. I use the 7.62 Vepr with PS ammo

then let go of additional 7mm buckshot or w/e

And Interchange is great for hideout / FIR items for quests early on. Especially now most people skip Oli and back of goshan completely loot wise.

1.1mil when starting off might sound like a fortune, but first of all, it's worth it, second... it's not expensive when compared to later stages of the game

#

I had yet to find a place on interchange (inside the mall) where I could avoid contact and just loot for a bit

orchid salmon
#

To be fair, just avoid the middle of the mail near kiba/mantis / tech store hotspots

#

You can literally loot the oli offices and stands for pc's and all of oli for loose loot spawns and get out with a full backpack

#

Might wanna take it slow as people do take oli entrance often (both front and back if they spawn back side of it)

#

But as soon as everyone is inside, oli is generally pretty safe to loot

#

(This is a bit different early wipe because it's pretty well known that a lot of necessary items spawn there so it'll be way more contested there)

the inside of interchange is my lowest survival place, even if I take it slow or just stick to the lower value loot spots. Going to start moving much slower on inter because of it, but it's so freaking open and filled with lines of sight that I sort of get overwhelmed with the angles

#

(and I understand that going to inter solo is harsh)

orchid salmon
#

Interchange is probably the one where multiple angles / team plays work the best i'd say yeah so sometimes very rough as a solo. General advise is to never take the main elevators but secrets stairs for example when you want to traverse 1 --> 2 floor and vice versa

#

And taking the less "direct" entrances (go under in parking and take back idea elevator instead of straight up front idea stairs to office) also helps massively for survival imo. Not getting gatekeeped by spawns in front of you on interchange is quite important.

icy fable
#

i've worked out how to survive entry, waiting 3-5 minutes helps too... but tell me more about them secret stairs...

#

back of shops?

orchid salmon
#

"Secret stairs" is the callout, but it's the 2 "closed" stairs that lead up the second floor at both sides of the Goshan Offices, instead of the elevators that you find in the mall / store bit.

is the ump 45 good for a lower level ll1 gun? i can just buy the knives for the barter.

open hedge
#

Nah those are basement escalators

orchid salmon
#

Nope those are elevators.

#

Hold on I'll point them out

open hedge
#

There are stairs that lead to no where in the back areas

#

For some reason

icy fable
#

thanks a lot, i'm in the middle of studying the interchange map

orchid salmon
#

Idk why map genie has "transitions" but forget to mentions the 2nd scecret stairs and oli elevators and stairs btw.

icy fable
#

leading there, indeed that sounds a lot safer

#

especially because you come out into back rooms, and not an open top floor exposing yourself to 360º in a single moment

orchid salmon
#

Exactly.

#

People do tend to traverse both those stairs and the offices for loot and quests often though but you have more cover and better hearing going through those.

#

And you're not announcing your arrival by metal sounds too 😉

devout belfry
#

@icy fable do you need help learning interchange?

#

Interchange is one of my favs lol

icy fable
#

yeah, both have computers before the stairs, but it's still a better option then 360º exposure

icy fable
devout belfry
#

I mean we don’t have to I can teach you what I know to help you move along more confidently tho

Learning from others is the only effective way of mastering this game lol

I am learning bit by bit, i'm at the "i've visited the map a dozen times" and don't get lost anymore phase and moving onto the detailed overview phase

Including alyonkas

#

Goshan Food runs are also pretty decent and safe, but more for money than actual items you need for quest/hideout (except the few tuchonka's)

Random

icy fable
#

RNGesus - The Lord of Random Number Generation

open hedge
#

Why is it generation and not like selector or something

#

It doesn’t make up a new number

icy fable
#

you have no idea how much of a meme that is in the programming/coding world

#

"is true Random ™️ even possible?"

open hedge
#

I would assume it would be difficult for a true random

icy fable
#

"and of course it's not random if it's inside a known range"

#

it's either pseudo random or a timestamp based calculation where you use the milliseconds value (or something similar) as the main seed for that calculation, so then it becomes a philosophical question of "is it random enough if I, the programmer, have no real influence on the value?"

thanks

#

i lll try it

icy fable
#

also checking the gamma inside your graphics control panel helps, if it's nvidia, try setting gamme to 1.2-1.5

split dagger
#

I got 50-100 brigthness depends on the map

#

Same for saturation

#

Boost on 50

icy fable
#

if you have an IPS monitor, they are naturally darked, because they can more accurately show darker colors

restive current
#

i dont like setting brightness too high because flashlights will physically hurt me#

split dagger

Im not sure about clarity but I think 100

#

Colorfullness on 100

#

Rest 0 I think

restive current
#

thanks ill try all of em

Try turning gamma up in your nvidia or amd

My game is hella bright but I like it
