[lucid goblet]

But tbh you’re gonna need PK lvl 3 for some other gun smiths I think so u could just wait

Gunsmith part 6 u need an RSASS from him

[zinc robin]

does the 60 round needa be found in raid or nah

@shrewd bane

[shrewd bane]

no

[zinc robin]

i can get u one if u really want

[untold quarry]

should i go bear or usec?

[rain wing]

usec is probably better

[shrewd bane]

is there a way around the AR-15 Magpul MIAD pistol grip (FDE) for the 100 round build?

[zinc hamlet]

anyone wanna help me finish some quests?

[west oar]

If you are following the wiki there are a couple of grips that give +7 ergo which I think is what I used. Right click the gun and do linked search

Then inspect the grips that come up. If you have the rest of it together you can look at the current ergo and see how far you are from the requirements

[lucid goblet]

yeah what he said. i dont remmeber teh exact build. maybe google it

[hazy veldt]

you can replace any parts, just as long the total stats are enough, unless the quest tells you to use a specific part.

[rain wing]

is there anything that fits here that is similar to the dbal?

as in like

laser

flashlight

and the ir flashlight

all in one

mfw 95k

[open hedge]

95k sucks this wipe

scav factory doesnt tho

[rain wing]

eeee

[open hedge]

he was level 3

[rain wing]

LOL

well

back to customs scavving

so I can try to get out of crippling debt

[pure talon]

don't want to break it for you, but only fence will be interested in these armors

[rain wing]

only the tagilla rig

the rest is all fine to raggy

[weary tinsel]

level 13 looking for some help with quests

[open hedge]

yes i am giving it to fence right now

[pure talon]

meanwhile on Customs... https://youtu.be/QmxLafwg8V0

[rain wing]

oh I go for airdrops while scavving LOL

basically low risk high reward

since I'm not exactly risking anything

unless I have something good on me

and I did kill a juicer pmc one time

[pure talon]

It might be coincidence, but it's fairly consistent for me to spawn right when the airdrop is coming at Customs.
And unless it's dropping right on me I usually skip it knowing that people will be drawn to it leaving me with fairly safe conditions to loot elsewhere.

[rain wing]

yeah that happens for me too

[open hedge]

have your giveaways made you broke yet???

[pure talon]

many times

[rain wing]

and yet I'm still more broke

[open hedge]

im finally out of poverty on the contrary

[rain wing]

I'm sitting at like

700k

[open hedge]

my buddy gave me a meta kit as a way to keep me from uninstalling

so i used it to make some money

[rain wing]

even with meta kits I can't win fights LOL

I got fucked by cultists even with the sr 25 mr z33d gave me

[open hedge]

cultists require cheese to kill

hard to fight normally

[pure talon]

#beginners-assistance message

[pure talon]

[haughty belfry]

[pure talon]

[haughty belfry]

i dont think i did

[shell kindle]

Oof

[haughty belfry]

i definitely didn't

oh well guess ill buy another one

[open hedge]

is yalls matchmaking being goofy right now? its taking forever to match and forever to leave so now im just stuck on this

[shell kindle]

Alt f4

[open hedge]

task manager end process

[open hedge]

i cleared cache and we good

trying to do chumming

i hate this task so much

[shell kindle]

oof

[open hedge]

its so hard to find people

might have to pull out the thermal eventually

[shell kindle]

really for night?

just rush rasumussen every raid

youll find them

[open hedge]

what

Rasumussen????

whats that

[shell kindle]

is the wiki wrong?

it says interchange

[drowsy oasis]

tech shop

rassmussen

[open hedge]

i go to techlight usually

kiba

ultra med

[drowsy oasis]

interchange is dead ngl 😦

[open hedge]

unfortunately

i love the map

[drowsy oasis]

new event on interchange tho im pretty sure

[stuck oriole]

Need to kill scavs on woods if anyone would like to help out

[drowsy oasis]

killa just doesnt spawn

[whole thistle]

I did that quest last wipe by stalking goshan with a shotgun

[pure talon]

Psst, come closer, I'll share a little secret with, come closer... they're all inside the mall

[drowsy oasis]

theyre all hitting stashes actually

[sweet coral]

yo

admin join beginners 8 insiders

pls

[fresh bridge]

Who do you guys recommend I turn in "chemicals part 4" into?

[pure talon]

skier

[hidden violet]

do chumming at ~8am, people will go there because its not night and it still counts towards your quest.

[hidden violet]

skier cuz otherwise you have to pay him 1m roubles

[fresh bridge]

@hidden violet really?

[shell kindle]

yeah i wish interchange was dead

then i could do my ragman quest

[hidden violet]

just read the quest, its from 10pm to 10am

[whole thistle]

Yeah it's the rep regain quests

[hidden violet]

oh wait

wrong person

but yeah

you do

have to turn in 1m roubles

[rain wing]

you don't "have to"

I didn't do it

I still have the quest

lmao

[hidden violet]

therapist and prapor will give you tasks to get the -0.25 rep back but they're not nearly as bad as skiers one

[rain wing]

I did thera because yummy med case

[rain wing]

and I'm at like I think ll3 now?

[hidden violet]

could of just bought 3 med cases for the 1m hand in to skier

[rain wing]

just 0.01 off of ll4

like I said I didn't hand in to skier

[hidden violet]

nice

[rain wing]

oh nvm I already have the rep for ll4

[open hedge]

the audio in this game is a joke

heard a guy on my right

spoiler alert

hes on your left

[hidden violet]

even then you could just hand it into skier, get the grenade case, sell it for a med case and then not have to deal with the -0.25 rep

[rain wing]

can I buy max dura ak74n receiver from someone?

like any traders

actually

what's the best 545 ak?

[hidden violet]

74n imo

[rain wing]

ah ok

I'll stick with it then

[open hedge]

i like rpk the most

[rain wing]

also what's the difference between the aks-74n and the ak-74n

[open hedge]

but im also a weirdo

[hidden violet]

different stocks

[rain wing]

ohh

[hidden violet]

its mainly made to take buffer tubes

but you're better off going 74n with zhukov

[hidden violet]

y? worse ergo, worse recoil and the same fire rate.

[open hedge]

nah for pretty cheap it can get to low recoil

fairly cheap

[dusky geyser]

happened to me yesterday

[rain wing]

is there any way to put this on the 74n?

[hidden violet]

74n is proly cheaper to get to low recoil

[open hedge]

fair

but rpk looks cooler

[dusky geyser]

i was fruitlessly spinning around to no avail when a random vector guy started shooting

[dusky geyser]

you have to use buffer tube stocks tho 🤮

[open hedge]

lost a great kit and lost like 3 kills of loot because of it

[open hedge]

L buffer tube better

[dusky geyser]

have you heard of UAS

cheap and good

[open hedge]

yes but buffer tube has drip

[rain wing]

^

like is there a mount or something this'll fit on?

there's one but for the aks74

[open hedge]

i think it only fits saiga 12 and 74u platforms

[rain wing]

ah

alright then

I

I'll get another stock

[dusky geyser]

UAS looks cool as fuck

[rain wing]

should I keep this?

I know it's good

but idfk when to use it

[dusky geyser]

go to dorms with it and bum rush people

works about 5% of the time

[hazy veldt]

pt akm lock

but uas exists.

[rain wing]

yeah I just put on another stock

[rain wing]

so would running this actually be viable?

I have 2 of them

I also have 2 tagilla rigs

and

2 slicks

[hazy veldt]

It's alright for factory.

[rain wing]

wtf do I do with all this stuff

jesus christ

[shell kindle]

you can sell them

[rain wing]

I have a lot of good gear but I'm not good LOL

[shell kindle]

i mean 2 slicks and 2 tagilla rigs is not a lot of space

id just use the tagilla rigs

arent they t4

[rain wing]

t6

[shell kindle]

even better

nice

wait isnt that like the best armor/rig lol

[rain wing]

idk

[shell kindle]

if its t6 but doesnt affect your movespeed

[hazy veldt]

actually maybe you can't, for some reason only the PT-1 is compatible with the akm lock, not the PT-3 (on AKM/AK-10X both work with the other lock 🤔 )

[shell kindle]

i guess slick is better

[rain wing]

I killed tagilla once solo with a nade

and the other was with my friend

[rain wing]

yeah I already ditched that stock anyways

[hazy veldt]

Hopefully AK customization rework soon

[dusky geyser]

it’s worse than a slick because you have no space for loot to work with

[hazy veldt]

I'd have hoarded it, it's good on saiga and uhhh ak-10X? iirc.

[red rapids]

I have a couple quests on customs i have to do, I know where to go just need help surviving the raid after

[rain wing]

the suppressor looks kinda funky

[rain wing]

ah alright then

[hazy veldt]

I'm a hoarder though.

[rain wing]

man I've had all these tagilla stuff for the longest time

I would run them but I have very bad gear fear

like I want to but chances are my dumbass will just die

cause I can't pvp for shit

[hazy veldt]

just vendor and buy mmac + ump and get sum pvp practice

[rain wing]

no helmet?

[hazy veldt]

ratnik barter for 20k, for ricochet

but for the most part, you die anyway if you get hit in the head.

[rain wing]

so

no helmet

[hazy veldt]

personal preference.

[rain wing]

cause I uhh

eeee

a bit short on cash

[hazy veldt]

I mean it's 20k'ish with bleach barter.

but I'd rat a bit if I was that low on funds.

[rain wing]

how tf do I rat

I'm pretty sure I'm just mentally incapable of understanding this game

[hazy veldt]

night + stashes or loot routes.

like woods/shoreline/interchange stashes are stupid risk free at night.

[rain wing]

I get lost on woods.

[hazy veldt]

interchange is probably the riskiest out of those three, but can also be fastest.

[rain wing]

are customs stash runs viable?

[dusky geyser]

very risky

[hazy veldt]

on pmc, risky

[rain wing]

is it?

[hazy veldt]

but doable if you wait a little bit, depending on spawn.

[dusky geyser]

too many hot areas

[rain wing]

sadge

[hazy veldt]

scavs too.

[rain wing]

so woods?

alright I just hope I spawn near a landmark

[dusky geyser]

i personally run interchange, but the stashes there are shit

[rain wing]

do I bring good gear or just cheap stuff?

[dusky geyser]

cheap stuff

woods? RFB

[hazy veldt]

ump / rfb + mmac + backpack + ears + ratnik is what I run.

[rain wing]

ok now how do I mod this rfb

[dusky geyser]

put a scope on it

put a grip on it

you cannot do anything else

[rain wing]

that's good enough?

137 vert recoil 💀

[hazy veldt]

can recknagel with laser.

[dusky geyser]

that scope is icky btw

[rain wing]

oh yeah

I'll put on like

a vudu

or something

[dusky geyser]

personal preference but yeah

[hazy veldt]

tac-30 on a budget

[dusky geyser]

the FOV is like
3

[rain wing]

tac30?

[hazy veldt]

but like if you go at night, then range is fairly limited.

[rain wing]

alright

bruh.

[hazy veldt]

why that mount?

[dusky geyser]

go to jaeger

[hazy veldt]

there's much cheaper ones?

[rain wing]

oh wait

I can get the jaeger one

yeah

lol

I'm big dumb dumb sorry

[dusky geyser]

also that mount is really low for some reason and likes to clip into the rear sight

[stable island]

my fps on tark is so bad sadge

[rain wing]

soo

I run away from any and all gunshots

I only take fights if I have to

yes?

good enough?

[shell kindle]

wait what are you doing?

[drowsy oasis]

get injectors case

[shell kindle]

if you wanna make money just run scav

[rain wing]

fimconte just told me to run woods stashes

[rain wing]

500k LOL

[drowsy oasis]

damnn

[shell kindle]

lol

[stable island]

do customs scav trust

[rain wing]

yeah I've been bouncing between like 500k and ~1.5m

ever since I bought all the shit for bitcoin miner and scav case

and then ledx craft

so yeah

[rain wing]

yeah that's what I normally do

[hazy veldt]

sunglasses can give away your position.

[rain wing]

oh yeah

which ones are the bugged ones?

[hazy veldt]

all except condors.

[rain wing]

damn really?

ok

[hazy veldt]

out of the sunglasses

[rain wing]

I also have this thing for whatever reason

[hazy veldt]

you can run 6b13 or nothing too, it's not a must have.

[rain wing]

aight

I'll scav a bit for now

[shell kindle]

im not gonna do bitcoin miner but im working on scav case lol

[rain wing]

once i get to 1m I'll alternate between scavving and stash runs

[shell kindle]

i have like 6.5?

[rain wing]

it was really not a good idea to craft both of them

[hazy veldt]

you should get at least btc1 with 1 gpu, it pays for itself in a few days.

[shell kindle]

need fuel?

[hazy veldt]

you don't craft other stuff?

[shell kindle]

no

[hazy veldt]

You should.

[rain wing]

oh yeah what do I actually do with used fuel?

what crafts are good with it

[hazy veldt]

good money.

[hazy veldt]

you vendor it if not fir.

sell FIR on flea.

[rain wing]

vendor goes like 6k

lmao

[hazy veldt]

yes, none of the crafts are worth it even with empty fuel canisters.

[rain wing]

aight

[hazy veldt]

but yeah, if you for some reason don't craft anything else, then it's not worth it I guess.

[rain wing]

items only craft with the generator on right?

[hazy veldt]

Lavatory crafts without power, others need power or they're super slow.

[shell kindle]

does fuel keep getting burned if you arent crafting anything?

[hazy veldt]

as long as generator is on, yes ofc.

[shell kindle]

so if i play like 2 hours a day

i feel liek id just waste a lot of fuel idk

and i dont want to time anything

[hazy veldt]

crafting and selling lucky scav case for euros and being frugal with the raw materials, pays for fuel pretty much.

[rain wing]

I also have this from way back when lol

[hazy veldt]

but you want raw materials to cost like 690-750k'ish ideally, for it to be really profitable.

[rain wing]

is there a way to reset the firing range targets?

I want to see if these shots are actually connecting

[hazy veldt]

magdump into a wall, there's a finite amount of bullet decals

[rain wing]

ohh

[hazy veldt]

so old ones will despawn

[rain wing]

I just dumped 2 mags and it turned my rfb into bolt action

[hazy veldt]

I guess if you really don't want to deal with it, it's fine, but 1 gpu literally generates ~166k+ in btc.

per day.

and fuel is 140-160 depending on whether you get propane cheap.

[red rapids]

I have a couple quests on customs i have to do, I know where to go just need help surviving the raid after

[hazy veldt]

💀

[zinc robin]

[lyric pike]

intel scav case is so good

[spiral flicker]

No

[zinc robin]

[rain wing]

building scav case + bitcoin rig + workbench 3 may have taken a toll on my money

[zinc robin]

[rain wing]

[lyric pike]

i’ve been getting juice

[spiral flicker]

Thats 1 in 1000

[rain wing]

[lyric pike]

[rain wing]

I think I may have vendored it LOL

[spiral flicker]

Ye

[lyric pike]

[rain wing]

alright

aight what do I do with this btc?

from mr mech

[hazy veldt]

Hoard or vendor.

[rain wing]

aight

[hazy veldt]

Hoard with the belief btc price goes up.

[rain wing]

yummy yummy

[dusky geyser]

i wouldn’t get on it since btc went down like 150k a week ago

[hazy veldt]

Stack that cash.

[shell kindle]

Oof

[hazy veldt]

It wnet down because ruble rebound irl.

[rain wing]

alright wait

if I want to rat on woods

do I avoid any and all hotspots?

usec camp

emercom

[shell kindle]

Idk no brain reserve scav runs is easy money

[rain wing]

convoy

sawmill

[hazy veldt]

Preference.

[shell kindle]

I mean what’s your goal though

[dusky geyser]

ruble went back to 80 before BTC went down though

at least iirc

[rain wing]

for woods?

money

and possibly oscope

cause

😔

[shell kindle]

Yeah just take your time and run away from the bullets

[rain wing]

alright

[shell kindle]

Depending on your spawn I would rush emercom camp if you get the good one but don’t stay, just check the spots and dip to the mountain

[rain wing]

alright

where are the good spots on emercom

[shell kindle]

I don’t actually know the o scope spawns on emercom but the wiki has them I think

[rain wing]

yeah I know the decent spawns but idk where the oscopes are

ohhhh

alright

is this good?

[spiral flicker]

Take lvl 5

[rain wing]

should I use suppressor?

[rain wing]

I had this left over

[versed valley]

I would take more granades but thats probably just me

[rain wing]

I'll just use it

[dusky geyser]

don’t use that helmet on woods

please

[versed valley]

Also cms?

[rain wing]

wait why?

[shell kindle]

Looks fine, I’d probably ditch a mag and put the bullets in your pouch

Or ditch 2 mags

[rain wing]

sec

ok wait I'm bringing m61 ammo

or is that overkill

just m80 instead

[spiral flicker]

M80 enough

[rain wing]

if it's m80 I'll just leave it in my pockets

alright

[prime comet]

2 caloks?

[dusky geyser]

unless you have pk ll4 it’s better to get an ulach

[rain wing]

oh right

lol

[spiral flicker]

[versed valley]

If you meet flechette boy it might be useful

[prime comet]

Yet again I am the king of needing meds

Mainly water through tbf

[spiral flicker]

[dusky geyser]

oh wait TC not exfil
yeah go ham lmao

[versed valley]

Grizzly got u

[dusky geyser]

just take off the face shield

[rain wing]

wait how does calok work?

does it heal all the bleeds

or just one heavy

[prime comet]

Grizzly is dudu

[versed valley]

Just heavy

[prime comet]

I only use it to heal post raid

[dusky geyser]

it’s annoying because of the viginette + blurred spots

[rain wing]

how many heavies?

[versed valley]

But it heals them very fast and it has 3 uses

[rain wing]

me too

I have like 3/4 of them to use

[versed valley]

3 as the dur says

[spiral flicker]

Just buy saury and emergency water and bring it to raid or eat it in hideout

[rain wing]

ohh so it can heal all your bleeds in one use?

[versed valley]

You wont need more than 1 calok tho

[rain wing]

but only if you have 3

[prime comet]

Yeah I just always forget about it idk what’s wrong with me

[versed valley]

Just one i said

Just heavy

[rain wing]

I mean heavy bleeds

[silver jewel]

calok heals 1 heavy, can be used 3 times

[rain wing]

not normal bleeds

[rain wing]

ok yeah this works

[versed valley]

3 heavy bleeds, it will heal 1 per use

[prime comet]

I got my weekly dungeons done on wow now

[versed valley]

So not all at once

[zinc robin]

you use salewa for light bleed

[prime comet]

So I’m all for tarkov every night until Wednesday

[silver jewel]

[prime comet]

Thankfully

[zinc robin]

what

[versed valley]

Aseptic Bandages so cheap i use them instead

[silver jewel]

army bandages on top

[zinc robin]

but they r slow

[silver jewel]

AFAK is better

all in one

smaller than salewa

[zinc robin]

like nobody uses bandages when u get a salewa

[versed valley]

Oh yea i meant army, the 2 use onces

[prime comet]

What was the cheap way to get a weapons case again btw?

[shell kindle]

Calok so fast

[spiral flicker]

It can even heal radiation exposure or how it's called

[silver jewel]

AFAK is literally better lol

[dusky geyser]

not implemented

[prime comet]

I’m starting to get stacked but I don’t wanna spend 7mil on one

[versed valley]

Not really, you pretty much always have space for salawa in the rig, i use afaks just for pouch

[spiral flicker]

I know

[dusky geyser]

10k more + it’s marginally slower to use

[silver jewel]

AFAK is basically a salewa but smaller, and the price doesn't mean anything, farm heals on shoreline lol

[shell kindle]

Mk 16 and ak 105

Ew

[spiral flicker]

Oh still dvl boi?

[prime comet]

The dvl is so good ok

[silver jewel]

dvls goated unironically

[prime comet]

It’s my new favourite friend

[silver jewel]

getting kills with it feels so much better than a meta gun

[prime comet]

Yeah unless you click the head 3 times for no reason

[silver jewel]

thats just getting tarkovved tbh

[spiral flicker]

T5000 op, you can't hear the click when I switch from 1x to 6x

[prime comet]

I used a T5000 once

Lost it after one shot

[spiral flicker]

[prime comet]

And went back to the rfb

And now it’s dvl time

[silver jewel]

RFB is a budget mdr, except i feel that its better than an mdr

even though it doesnt have full auto

its hella cheap

super easy to build

and easy to use

[prime comet]

Also I ended up 4.5mil yesterday In total

Loothouse was kind to me

And I’m gonna open my moonshine case in a moment before I get ready for work

[silver jewel]

i grant you amazing luck

[prime comet]

I won’t have it

[silver jewel]

like better luck than anomaly opening csgo cases

[prime comet]

I opened my first one yesterday which was an intel one

And got a gpu

I won’t get anything in this one

[silver jewel]

damn nice

[prime comet]

Could’ve been worse

[silver jewel]

nto too bad

*not

anyways helping out new players, dm me if u are new, fine with going extremely slow

[prime comet]

Imma focus on tasks when I get in

Need my mechanic 3

[spiral flicker]

I need PK 4 but I am too lazy to do quest

I forgot to change my lvl in my name lol

It was like 7 days ago

They got 2 shots

[prime comet]

Did you drop your gun or just happened to have the same as theirs?

[spiral flicker]

No I ditched my scar

[prime comet]

Understandable

At least they didn’t tank like that rogue did

[pearl pier]

Does ergo affect recoil?

[raw bridge]

no

[open hedge]

ive officially no hit every boss in metal gear rising in hard mode except armstrong

[prime comet]

Why does my laptop not handle tarkov

I wanted to build my weapons at work while I’m stuck in the office today

[prime comet]

One of my friends has always been obsessed with that game

Good sound track I’ll give it that

[open hedge]

i wouldnt know anything about that

its a problem

[prime comet]

He’s worse

100% achieves

Yet still plays it

Same with tekken

[open hedge]

ive only had it for 2 weeks

26 hours played

[prime comet]

He’s got like 3k hours on tekken

Bro I remember when sea of thieves came out on steam

As the uk went into lockdown

In 2 weeks I had 130 hours

[open hedge]

well i have school

i wish i could do that

[prime comet]

It was a blessing tbf

[open hedge]

tarkov (full time job) and school make gaming hard

[prime comet]

I’m working on my booze generator now for it

Because I have 8 non fir sugar I can use for moonshine

[hardy bear]

what should I try to upgrade in my stash to make money 😤

[prime comet]

Pass

I upgraded everything as I could

[shell kindle]

Look up some crafting guide

But I ain’t got time for that

[dusky geyser]

not revengence, opinion invalidates

[bold kernel]

Is the military gyrotachometer used for a quest?

[prime comet]

You can’t take weapon cases into raid now can you?

[orchid salmon]

No. Only ammo is still possible.

[prime comet]

Well shit

[orchid salmon]

No. You can always check wiki,it will tell you for any item if you need for quest/hideout/barter: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Military_gyrotachometer

[prime comet]

I need a weapons case, but I don’t have the cheap barter unlocked yet

[orchid salmon]

Then wait.

[bold kernel]

Ah alright thanks

I got 2 out of my scav case and had no idea what they're for

[prime comet]

Quickest is mechanic 3 right?

This one

[shell kindle]

That looks good

Isn’t it only like 400k

[vagrant cargo]

@prime comet

[prime comet]

I mean, motors are 60-80k

Sup

[vagrant cargo]

Hi pussio

[prime comet]

Howdy

I won’t be playing until late

Work things

[vagrant cargo]

Ok

[shell kindle]

Eh less than a mil

[vagrant cargo]

Not sure I asked to play

[shell kindle]

Worth

[vagrant cargo]

No

[prime comet]

No b it you will

And yeah it’s definitely worth

[vagrant cargo]

no

[prime comet]

The other barter is 10 btc

So

[vagrant cargo]

liquidate your stash

[prime comet]

Why would I do that

I wanna build the guns I haven’t built yet

[vagrant cargo]

it’s what I did

liquidated

[prime comet]

I got Aks to make good

And the m1a is waiting

[vagrant cargo]

No

Buy new AKs don’t use raider ones

[prime comet]

Why not

The ones I kept are all 95+ dura

[vagrant cargo]

100 is better

[shell kindle]

What if I can’t get the weapon/attachments lol

[vagrant cargo]

93 is the rrzsholf

threshold

[prime comet]

95 won’t jam

So it’s fine

[shell kindle]

I should liquidate most though too many weapon attachments

What else am I gonna do with my moeny anyway

[vagrant cargo]

It will be in jamming range after 1 mag

[shell kindle]

Other than gamble with the scav case

[prime comet]

https://youtu.be/vPB2mBPTyUk

You won’t see me like this guy

[vagrant cargo]

• they’re not specifically good

like those aks are bad

not even 1 good attachment

[prime comet]

You’re not a good attachment

[vagrant cargo]

I’d build em from scratch if I were you cause they’re dogshit

You’ll need to replace most things anyways

[prime comet]

You want the 84 dura mutant?

[vagrant cargo]

Also good job on having a mutant you don’t deserve

[vagrant cargo]

shut up and yes

[prime comet]

You can have it

It’s the naked one

[vagrant cargo]

cool

[prime comet]

I won’t use it at that dura

[vagrant cargo]

I’ll just mod it and use it on a dumb run whatever

[prime comet]

Seems like an expensive mistake

Like me

[shell kindle]

Nah you cheap as hell

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah

He’s cheap cheap

[prime comet]

I am cheap cheap

[vagrant cargo]

But tbh 84 dura is pretty dog

[prime comet]

I was just gonna vendor it

Or give it to my Timmy friend

[vagrant cargo]

But you’ll give it to me now

[lost sky]

chemical part 4 or whatever you lose a ton of rep if you fail?

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah but I think it’s bugged

[icy fable]

speaking of chemical 4, it's a multiquest that you can hand in to several traders, prapor, therapist or skier... is there a recommended option?

as in, is a there a definitive "wrong one" which can lead to consequences, i.e. anger one of them specifically?

it's a multiple choice one that you can hand in to either one of those 3, and the 2 others give -0.25 rep on "failure"

[orchid salmon]

you can literally buy a mk47 resolute, swap it out and have it have 100 dura again

Dont need to buy a full new gun for most guns that have too low durability, can just swap the main part out and you good to go again.

[prime comet]

When or where?

I don’t know what that means honestly lmao

[orchid salmon]

For most guns, the durability is based on the "main" part of the gun, so the upper receiver. It's not the modifications that have durability but that main part. So if you have a mutant and the durability is too low, you can buy a full 100/100 MK47 Resolute upper receiver, swap that part out with the gun, have 100 dura again.

Works too for m4, hk etc, some ak's that you can buy just that specific part for.

Tarkov-market says its only 10k on flea so Idk why people are selling their mutants because "durability is too low" since you can fix it for 10k

[prime comet]

If I was smart enough to think of that before I’d have so many more mk47/hk in my stash

That’s honestly huge info for me

[orchid salmon]

Glad 🙂 It works best for guns that have a specific upper receiver part so most ar-15 platform guns since that is a specific part that can be bought/sold and swapped. For some ak's you can buy the main part from trader directly too, it depends on what ak if it's cheaper, sometimes it's cheaper to just buy a full 100/100 gun from flea over buying part from trader.

But especially m4, sr-25, mk47, adar, scar's this works like a charm ^

[icy fable]

just got the answer for chemical part 4 btw, skier seems like the best option, as, although it's the minimal amount of xp and money, it unlocks a "get rep back" quest with everybody and getting rep back on skier is the most expensive one, requiring 1 mil, while therapist and prapor need some common keys and some grenades...

[prime comet]

Beautiful, imma “repair” all my guns I use tonight with this info

I haven’t even done chemical 1

Oop

[icy fable]

[shell kindle]

Lol

[icy fable]

the traders basically start getting mad at each other and fighting over what you're marking

so you start part 4 and get 3 quests, you can only hand it to one

I love the anarcho-capitalist ideals in this game

[smoky moth]

i'd love to see something like every trader's relationship with others

[sleek briar]

Paragon choice - The rapist
Renegade choice - Skier
Neutral choice - Prapor

[icy fable]

Therapist would like a word with you... at her place

[sleek briar]

😯 🍑 🍆

[hearty magnet]

this don't work

[rain wing]

😳

wait what key even is that

rb bk

keep?

[sleek briar]

Hell yeah chlorine. Can disinfect that water

[rain wing]

frr

[lost sky]

does eating in hideout give you metabolism exp?

[icy fable]

yes, but not as much (? unsure about that one, don't wanna give misinformation)

[orchid salmon]

Pretty sure it does unless they changed it.

[hearty magnet]

durability stays the same

[orchid salmon]

l've literally seen it someone do yesterday and I doubt they changed it during the night without patch, i'll check when behind pc.

[hearty magnet]

ight

[smoky moth]

nikita going to tweak the AI aimbots no way!!!

[rain wing]

can I put a laser on this?

or no point

oh wait I can get a recknagel

but it'll be super high up

[icy fable]

if I was on that dev team, i'd literally define one static bot which is so overpowered not even fully geared players could defeat him, then set his probability to spawn at around 1 in 1000, equip him with a crappy nerf gun and let the myth grow on his own

[rain wing]

tarkov urban legend

[icy fable]

ahhh, important detail: he would always have the same name

so there would be literally compilations of people getting killed by that one bot

[spiral flicker]

I don't think u can but laser on it

[rain wing]

:)

[sleek briar]

Call him Nikita Buyanov

[smoky moth]

can't put lasers or flashlights on it

[spiral flicker]

[smoky moth]

unless you use the reflex sight with laser

[rain wing]

yeah

[smoky moth]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Holosun_HS401G5_reflex_sight

Unlike other tactical lasers and flashlights, the built-in green laser on this sight does not provide a point fire accuracy bonus.

🗿

[spiral flicker]

That's trash sight

Can't see shit through it

[sleek briar]

Good thing I'm not looking for shit

[prime comet]

Okay I’m gonna invest in and spam gunsmith for quick xp I think

Level 30 sooner means weapons case sooner

[sleek briar]

You get more money out of those quests than you put in

Should flea market gods be merciful anyway

[prime comet]

I’m on the Remington one

Like part 7 I think?

[sleek briar]

6?

The RSAS

Can buy it from peacekeeper for dogtags

[prime comet]

I’ve done the rsass

The shotgun after it

[spiral flicker]

Rsass best gun imo

Its expensive af tho

You can get around 97 horizontal recoil on that

With 7.62x51 ammo it's insane

[sleek briar]

Double barrel best gun. No need to worry about recoil

[prime comet]

Okay so did the pricing up

The mech barter is only 730k in total for a w-case

[spiral flicker]

I mean cqc is rly good with it

[sleek briar]

Yeah it's pretty cheap

[prime comet]

It’s worth it

[sleek briar]

100 meters head eyes buckshot lets go

[spiral flicker]

No

[prime comet]

Even if I’m not min maxing the space with mags and grips

It’s worth

[spiral flicker]

100 meters will give max 1 pellet so like 30 dmg

[sleek briar]

You just need to git gud 🤷‍♂️

[prime comet]

Or just use better guns

Shotguns are only good for factory or resort/dorms rushing

Change my mind

[sleek briar]

Took out a guy on shoreline with a 120m slug headshot

[remote kettle]

not with magnum

[sleek briar]

Poleva 6u 😎

[spiral flicker]

I mean slugs are just big boolets so it isn't hard to hit.

[sleek briar]

Good ole musket ball

need to get a 5 man and do volley fire

[lost sky]

eventually task exp gets a lot slower right? at like lvl 3 traders and feel like most of the tasks are hassels for exp now

[sleek briar]

Trader levels have nothing to do with tasks they give you

[remote kettle]

task XP increases with levels

[sleek briar]

It's just a chain

[icy fable]

firing squad in corridors

[lost sky]

well yeah mean like ive done quite a bit of their quests now I assume

[remote kettle]

most of the tasks that im on atm give at minimum like 13k XP

most around 20k

[sleek briar]

There's a full task tree on wiki

[lost sky]

assume if just getting max traders you should do all non dead end tasks?

[remote kettle]

keep knocking out tasks as you unlock them, and the XP gain from them will keep up

[sleek briar]

Again trader levels have nothing to do with tasks they give you :p

[remote kettle]

dont have to. depends on how much raid XP you get

[remote kettle]

in some rare cases it does

[lost sky]

I'm talking about if im aiming toward max traders/lvl 42 that tasks are the best exp atm?

dont mean trader lvl = more exp

[sleek briar]

I mean apart from Ragman who doesn't talk to you before loyalty 2...but that's just a task he gives you to get there 😄

[remote kettle]

quests are generally the best way to get XP

[remote kettle]

as well as Hunter from jaeger

[sleek briar]

I'm stuck with all my tasks being PvP shit now 🙃

[pearl pier]

What are some good sniper spots in Woods?

[icy fable]

for killing players or scavs? and is it for a task, i.e. do you have a minimum range?

[pearl pier]

PMCs, for SBIH

[icy fable]

gimme a second, i've got some ideas

[velvet flicker]

is there a way to just view a list of tasks

instead of going trader to trader

[pearl pier]

Check the tabs at the top of the screen

[velvet flicker]

for someone like me who suffers from memory loss not being able to check tasks during missions or just view a list of what i need is really killing the game for me

[pearl pier]

You can check them during a raid as well

[runic sable]

If you go into your inventory, there will be a button up top called "Tasks" and that can be seen in raid aswell 🙂

[velvet flicker]

i tried using the tasks tab at the top of the inventory but both pages always show up blank when playing as pmc

same with scav but maybe that's normal

[prime comet]

Scav they don’t show

Pmc they should

[runic sable]

Scav's don't have tasks, but there should be tasks in your PMC window :-X

[velvet flicker]

maybe it was just bugging out, unless i have to mark or track the quests in some way

[icy fable]

there are many many more, but i'd use these spots:

[pearl pier]

Aight thx

[icy fable]

although 2 of those spots are just over 100m

there's a nice rock/tree combo overlocking the checkpoint rated at 115 meters

and that ridgeline overlooking the medical camp is also 110-120 meters

[prime comet]

It took me like 20 levels to get half decent at shooting

[icy fable]

you should also focus on 1-3 very good loot spots to cover, i.e. where you have clean line of sight of someone standing still, for the easiest of shots, or places where people run in a straight line, hopefully towards you

the top of the mountain in the least optimal spot, as everybody checks it for the sniper scav and you stick out a lot

[velvet flicker]

is there any helmet in the game that will stop the instakill "head top of head" from over 200m away, getting real tired of losing PMCs in customs from so far I don't even hear the gunshot

[remote kettle]

(like the Svetloozerskiy common fund stash)

[remote kettle]

altyn and vulkan

[velvet flicker]

oof, both ragman ll4

[icy fable]

yeah, that's a good one. There's a lot of spots on the eastern side of the town that overlook those warehouses and vehicles

[remote kettle]

and cost a fuckton+makes you deaf. so the best counter is to improve your positioning instead

[icy fable]

although beware of counter snipers, if you pick common spots to snipe from, people will check for them sometimes

[velvet flicker]

i've been killed 4 times now between my spawnpoint and the nearest bush while running for cover

positioning is not the issue lol

[remote kettle]

i mean considering i rarely get onetapped like that, and you always do, i would say yeah its positioning. that and map knowledge of spawns

[velvet flicker]

i keep getting spawned by the ruaf roadblock on the river

and get one tapped while trying to get to a bush from across the river

[remote kettle]

what on customs?

[velvet flicker]

yeah, i keep getting dinked from the bridge or across the river near the big customs building train tracks

[remote kettle]

take like two steps towards the garages and youre safe. nobody spawns close enought to onetap you, if you actually get cover right off spawn

[violet crystal]

fast mt and slaap

[merry swift]

Head/top of head gets stopped by a ton of helmets

Any T5 will stop 99% of ammo in the game

The T5 armor plates are really expensive if you get them off the flea though

[velvet flicker]

well being that i'm only rank 6, I don't have any counter to one taps from the looks of it

[remote kettle]

cant buy any T5 armors off flea anymore

[violet crystal]

slaaaaaap

[remote kettle]

at least i think all of them are off. id be surprised if any are left

[merry swift]

Nah you can def buy the plates from flea

But they will cost you like 80-160k depending on which ones you get

[remote kettle]

oh you mean the faceplates?

like the altyn and maska faceshields?

[merry swift]

I think the issue isnt your helmet but your movement and positioning. If you are consistently getting headshot from very far away I would wager you either stand still a lot or you move in straight lines a lot

[merry swift]

No. I mean the plates that go on your helmet like the SLAAP plate and the bastion armor plate

[remote kettle]

yeah those too.

[merry swift]

They upgrade that part of the helmet to higher class and add durability

[remote kettle]

i mainly meant armors as in helmets/armor vests/armor rigs

[remote kettle]

yah ik which you mean

[merry swift]

Yea not what we were talking about tho but youre right those are off the flea

[prime comet]

Shit I can’t remember who we were playing with yesterday @spiral flicker

When we were a squad just yelling through shoreline

[orchid salmon]

There's really only a few spots on customs with >200m clean sightlines with short windows, so you must be way out in the open standing still out of position for this to happen multiple times.

[prime comet]

This is why I like using the dvl

You don’t hear it coming and it’s an easy 1 shot kill with M62

[sleek briar]

Big red office?

[violet furnace]

Skeleton construct between dorms and fortress

[sleek briar]

Cliffs by power station too probably

I have no idea how long range sniping works anyway. Rangefinder says 170meters. Range scope to 150, aim for top of head...complete miss 🤷‍♂️

[remote kettle]

To where would you get a 200m shot from construction?

[violet furnace]

Fortress, near crack house. Do u need 200 meters?

[remote kettle]

That was the question

[remote kettle]

Here

[bold kernel]

never zero

each round has diff speed and zeroing in eft is for the base ammo not any ammo

[violet furnace]

Didn't see, but why even would u go killing from 200 meters on customs

[remote kettle]

Just read the messages above and youll get the context

[violet furnace]

Ok

Someone just died from apm gronostay from 50 meters didn't hear him lol

[sleek briar]

How to aim using mildots then :D

[orchid salmon]

Well, might be no surpise but that also depends on gun and ammo used. A start is to know your distances, and see where on what scope you need to aim with specific guns/ammo

[sleek briar]

Whew lad

[orchid salmon]

I like to use specific guns and rounds + scope as much as I can so I don't have to find it out every raid.

[sleek briar]

Can't wait to also gave to take windage, temperature, atmospheric pressure and corriolis effect into account

Any good resource on finding the scope/ammo combo?

[orchid salmon]

SoonTM

[violet furnace]

[orchid salmon]

The easiest tbf is use the zero'ing caliber for that specific gun, i.e. 9x19 pst gzh (which is terrible to snipe with but I know that one out of my head)

[violet furnace]

But gun, it's muzzle velocity, round, scope, zeroing makes difference

[violet furnace]

Go offline with what u have and learn it that way

[orchid salmon]

As for scope it is preference, I have always liked the Vudu the most myself so that's where I snipe with but burris tac-30, valday, razor ... al options

[sleek briar]

Know any 200m target ranges on a map? :D

[spiral flicker]

Why u need that?

[spiral flicker]

.

[violet furnace]

Why 200 meters? And other then factory and customs there r plenty

[prime comet]

Just curious

It was a lot of fun

Outside of night time sniping I don’t really play the game lmao

[sleek briar]

Just need a good controlled environment where I can observe my hits at different ranges
