beginners-assistance

[pliant marten]

Yeah, don't worry about it. I was in the same boat as you, and I just ended up reaching level 15 first

[terse oasis]

Never mind I searched the store on google, I know where it is, I'm going to get it, thanks for help

[pliant marten]

Yeah like I do interchange on my scav all the time, and I might find it once every 10 runs. It's not common

[terse oasis]

Okay, Im gonna scav Goshan for now on until I find it

[pliant marten]

So is the rfb good for level 15?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[pliant marten]

Easy gun to prep?

[open hedge]

It’s shoot 762x51 so it’s good

[dawn geyser]

SI

[whole thistle]

You just need literally any optic and a couple mags

[pliant marten]

Which bullets?

[whole thistle]

M80

[open hedge]

Why does m993 have the best stats and lowers recoil?

[pliant marten]

How do I use it? Burst hip? Full spray?

[whole thistle]

It's semi auto

[open hedge]

It’s semi auto

[whole thistle]

Fuck you @open hedge

[pliant marten]

Oh cool, easy

[dawn geyser]

Expensive as balls

[pliant marten]

Oh I see, the bullets are nuts

[whole thistle]

Can you even buy them?

[pliant marten]

Probably the best bullets I can buy eh?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[open hedge]

Flechette better tbh

[terse oasis]

I finded a RFB some minutes ago and tested it on Factory offline, its a good weapon

[dawn geyser]

Sorry i'm still pre-ban brain

I keep forgetting things are missing from flea

[pliant marten]

I can't get flachette yet

[open hedge]

I just want the rsass back on flea so I can sell it for 2 mil roubles again

[whole thistle]

Pre awb uzi

[pliant marten]

What does the gun need to be decent?

Just a scope, then go?

No grip or something?

[open hedge]

Pretty much

[whole thistle]

A scope and maybe foregrip

[dawn geyser]

Scope,grip,go

Only other option is a suppressor

[pliant marten]

Awesome. I've been using sks, so this sounds like upgrade

[dawn geyser]

It's an absolute upgrade

[pliant marten]

Compensator? Or nah

3 flashlights?

[whole thistle]

It's like an SKS with an extra 12 millimeters of length 👍

[dawn geyser]

If there are available yes

[whole thistle]

That's the only drawback

[dawn geyser]

lol you don't need to burn everything with the sun

[whole thistle]

You can't put lights on it

I LOVE MY AUTOCORRECT?!! 💕💕💕

[pliant marten]

I use that hybrid scope that's like holo and ACOG? The 40ish k one from ah?

Z something

[whole thistle]

That's ok, elcan is a good option too

1-4 scope

[pliant marten]

Oh cool. I need to check that

I busted line 400k messing with an m4 yesterday, figuring out how the preset menu works to buy parts

Ending up buying multiples by mistake lol

[whole thistle]

You can just click "buy all" at the bottom

[open hedge]

M4 is garbage

[pliant marten]

Yeah I did, but then I noticed it was only looking at my traders, so I had to change the filter to include flea, then it would still highlight the ones I already bought

[open hedge]

Use mdr instead

Mdr is way better for the price

556 one

[whole thistle]

There's a box to select "include already owned items" or smth

[pliant marten]

Yeah I'm over the m4, I sprayed it in shooting range and it's got way more recoil then I thought

[whole thistle]

Mdr or scar are way cheaper and better recoil

[blissful cairn]

wait do scavs target me if i kill a rouge as a scav?

[pliant marten]

I played a few wipes ago and the VSS was a lazer

Did that get nerfed?

[whole thistle]

They do rn it's a bug

[blissful cairn]

bruh

[whole thistle]

Very much so

[blissful cairn]

i got fucking scared

[silver jewel]

recoil rework +nerf

[whole thistle]

They gave all the meta gun (416, m4, as val) horrible recoil @pliant marten

[pliant marten]

Are there any lazers like that in the game currently? Nearly zero recoil ?

Probably smgs

[open hedge]

Not anymore

[merry swift]

Not like it was a few patches ago, but some SMGs come close

[silver jewel]

mk47 meta, slower firing guns have better firerate obviously, i just use kitted mdr or rfb

[open hedge]

Even smgs got heavily nerfed

[pliant marten]

Ok that's good honestly

[silver jewel]

smgs had their aim blooms increased by like afactor of 5

[open hedge]

Mutant is the best recoil rn

[merry swift]

P90 with SB193 is really steady

[rocky ocean]

can someone explain me the peakers advantage in eft?

[silver jewel]

👍

[manic valley]

it might just be my pc but sometimes tarkov freezes and doesnt let me tab out of it so i cant even open task manager to close it

[silver jewel]

when you are hardly viisble to your enemy yet you can fully see their body and kill them

[pliant marten]

It means the peaker loads your character model first and sees you first

[steel oxide]

Are scopes bugged right now? Heard someone say something about that

[silver jewel]

oh im explaining the other side of it hades LOL

[rocky ocean]

from which side do you get a advantage?

[silver jewel]

whichever one has the higher power scope

[pliant marten]

The guy moving

[silver jewel]

or higher rendee distance

[pliant marten]

Kinda

[silver jewel]

depends on map

like shoreline definitely, factory not so much

[pliant marten]

I just mean in general, not sure about eft. Assuming it's the same

[silver jewel]

in eft peakers advantage is usually kept by a guy holding the peek

[pliant marten]

I hate peakers advantage, counter intuituve

It's a ping thing

[silver jewel]

because of slow peek and inertia

[pliant marten]

Oh, so no the pusher?

[violet crystal]

what is that

[pliant marten]

So there's no peakers advantage

[open hedge]

Yeah they are fuzzy

[rocky ocean]

when i watch lvndmark for example he walks into a room with the first step inside the room flicks up the gun and hipfires enemies and the enemies are not reacting not shooting back just dying instantly while holding the open door

[slate cedar]

How much rivals 2020 armband is worth?

[silver jewel]

quite a bit

[night finch]

lmao I hate new players' suffering

I just have to fight against fully geared gigachads with empty sks

with TTV in their names

[silver jewel]

thats because he usually has 2 flashlights on his guns to blind his enemies, paired with his grenade placement to zone his enemy, then he pushes with meta ammo to get an easy kill on a trapped and blinded enemy

[steel oxide]

You can kill them
Just play better

[silver jewel]

you can one tap lvl 4 with PS in an sks pretty sure

[rocky ocean]

he also does it without flashlights

[silver jewel]

gigachads can be killed, u gotta get lukcy

[night finch]

only downside is CQB

[silver jewel]

grenade zoning, he uses the grenades to trap them in a certain location or area

[blissful cairn]

just focus on improving ur pvp, next wipe ull be that chad

[silver jewel]

and then he uses his good game sense to play mind games for like a minute before he rushes them with their pants down

[blissful cairn]

rn those ppl have gear advantage

just focus on learning pvp

[night finch]

yeah I will to be honest

[silver jewel]

i wiped a duo with a mp 155

[night finch]

I kill PMCs too

[blissful cairn]

its prob not yours first wipe

[silver jewel]

both had tactec and an avs, both with ULACs and decent rfbs

[silver jewel]

4th

[blissful cairn]

yeah exactly

you did that because you know how to pvp

[night finch]

but while playing with shit ammo + wooden sks with no attachment is hard

I mean, i am not crying about how it is impossible

[blissful cairn]

when its first wipe just focus on pvp and then be a ultra chad next wipe

[night finch]

it is easier when you play the hard part

[silver jewel]

personally i like it, it forces you to think abt ur pvp

[silver jewel]

id say 2nd to 3rd is where you get to truly know the game

[night finch]

the game starts harder then goes to easier

this is the opposite of many games so it's confusing

[silver jewel]

then it gets numb so u start a hardcore acc like me

[night finch]

what is that

[hazy veldt]

desync mostly.

[silver jewel]

no traders above LL1, no jaeger, heals have to be found in raid, have to come out with at least 100K profit per raid, need at least 2 kills (pmc or scav) per raid, can only buy guns and low tier rigs from traders.

[blissful cairn]

bro wtf

[night finch]

I started 2 days ago with basic pack, just hit 1 mil rub last night and now losing money because there are people who graduated from NAVY SEALS course in this game lmao haha

[blissful cairn]

why are u torturing yourself

[silver jewel]

when i get home later ill show oicture proof

[silver jewel]

im a lvl 14 hardcore player with like 40 mil rouble stash value

[deep sky]

well im doing no jaeger without this challenge, im lvl 11 and cant complete the task, and any other task actually, i only have done like 2 tasks

[blissful cairn]

i want to try this one day

[night finch]

also I really would like to know how duo works, it looks fun

[silver jewel]

cant power unlock flea bc cant do quests cuz traders gave to ve under LL1

[silver jewel]

too lax for me tbh

wait nvm, no flea

[blissful cairn]

yeah

and thats the map chart

for extracts

[silver jewel]

im gonna actually add those rules to my own hardcore

[night finch]

maybe i should play duo too to have some fun

[silver jewel]

except for peacekeeper only

ragmans my baby

[blissful cairn]

i think the extracts are kinda cool

just because you know

the additional innertia

and you need to think through

how to extract

better

[silver jewel]

im actually gonna try that

[night finch]

ya all crazy

I won't say anything else

ya all just crazy lmao

[silver jewel]

im gonna limit my extracts like that

[blissful cairn]

i want to try that when im better at the game

like 3rd or 4th wipe

[silver jewel]

plus scav runs are mad ovverated

[blissful cairn]

[steel oxide]

What is this

[blissful cairn]

thats a challenge

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1RdSplcG6E

full video i got these from

[silver jewel]

nice nice

im gonna limit my extracts as wwll

[silver jewel]

nah its just tarkov got boring

[blazing brook]

glitch where its raining inside now lol

[blissful cairn]

bro u ded

[silver jewel]

2 broken legs?

nah hes ok

if hes not bleeding he could make it

[blissful cairn]

i mean yes

[blazing brook]

im wobbling ok

[blissful cairn]

but that depends

if rouges

[blazing brook]

ima make it

[blissful cairn]

are alive

[blazing brook]

thats waht im going for lol

to kill rogues

pro strats

[silver jewel]

pmc or scav

[blissful cairn]

i need to finally do the corporate secrets quest

that quest is so stupid

[silver jewel]

if its PMC then pop a painkiller

and just do fastest walkspeed

[hazy veldt]

I'm irrationally annoyed that he wore the azimuth and had the alpha rig in the bag, around 27 minutes, instead of the other way around, because alpha rig is 4x4 and azimuth is 3x4, so could've packed more loot 😂

He also dropped the Gunslinger for Beta2 there, to fit the alpha rig in backpack.

[silver jewel]

if ur legs arent blacked that is

[silver jewel]

bruh its a lighthouse scav

[open hedge]

Midhouse

[blissful cairn]

not mid at all

i spawned in villa

as scav

[open hedge]

Midhouse

Loot is good map is bad

[hazy veldt]

depends what you want to do.

for rat life, that map is pretty good.

[sleek pollen]

customs op

jk but it is my favorite map

loot is pretty mediocre

[blissful cairn]

shoudl i sell the iridium or keep it for some quests?

[open hedge]

I use iridium for flir craft if I don’t get it fir

[hazy veldt]

no quests require it.

[blissful cairn]

money it is.

[hazy veldt]

wdym, you don't need a fir flir?

you mean reap-ir barter?

[open hedge]

I just use it

[blissful cairn]

[open hedge]

Use the parts to build one if I can’t flea them

[hazy veldt]

input cost is 500k now tho

600k before.

well maybe a bit less, since tool prices have gone up a bit.

[open hedge]

Wait what

[hazy veldt]

I'd just refresh nerfgun at reset, comes out cheaper*

• if you reuse the parts that are expensive on the nerfgun

[open hedge]

That’s flea price tho right not vendor?

[hazy veldt]

it's cheapest.

[primal breach]

found mk18 in marked room and placed my scope on it

[hazy veldt]

Or you mean like vendoring non-fir parts?

[open hedge]

Yes

That’s what I mean

[hazy veldt]

Then iridium as at floor, it vendors for 51.1k

[open hedge]

I only do the craft if I get the parts not found in raid

[blissful cairn]

how tf do i find AFAK in raid

fast

[open hedge]

Rouges or raiders

[blissful cairn]

one i killed rn and escaped with his loot didnt have it

[somber dragon]

rouges easy and fast

[blissful cairn]

like

man

[somber dragon]

kill the three at the beginningof the camp then scurry away

[hazy veldt]

how is a colour easy and fast?

[open hedge]

What

[dawn geyser]

I think I missed the joke

I just read it like 9 times

[open hedge]

I’m quite perplexed

[hazy veldt]

rouge is a colour, rogue is rogue

[dawn geyser]

Rogue is acolor..?

[hazy veldt]

No, rouge is.

[unreal scarab]

i just started playing idfk what im doing help

[dawn geyser]

OH.

[open hedge]

Wow that is the most boring joke I think I’ve ever heard

[dawn geyser]

It wasn't bad

[blissful cairn]

do people usually laugh at your jokes?

[dawn geyser]

I just didn't notice the spelling mistake

[open hedge]

What black and white and red all over?

[hazy veldt]

on a different note, lucky scav prices hit roof, so the 3 mag cases change actually made it more profitable, if you 'euro exploit' 😂

[foggy grove]

My game kept crashing and It was the stupidest reason ever

[blissful cairn]

a newspaper

[somber dragon]

what does that mean

[open hedge]

A nun I hit with my car

[foggy grove]

My ram was in slots 3&4 instead of slots 1&2

[shell kindle]

I assume you buy mag cases with euros

[blissful cairn]

okay my first answer was similar but didnt want t say it

[hazy veldt]

no, you sell junk case for euros, because the market undervalues them.

[blissful cairn]

for a reason

[foggy grove]

ALSO how do you get thermite

I need it so bad for the ammo case

like ~1/2 of my stash is ammo

[somber dragon]

lighthosue had it in chalet garage

[dawn geyser]

..you...

You want your ram in slots 1 and 3.

[somber dragon]

and by the road

[foggy grove]

Das what i meant

[dawn geyser]

oh phew.

[blissful cairn]

or just use all slots

[open hedge]

Ideally you want them all tho

[blissful cairn]

[hazy veldt]

1&3 or 2&4.

or ideally all slots for ryzen

[foggy grove]

My pc kept trying to use ram slots 2&4 thinking I had 4 sticks,

It didnt

So my game crashed

[open hedge]

I have 4 4gb sticks

[dawn geyser]

With the assumption he has two sticks lol

[blissful cairn]

btw what should i change for more fps, i have ryzen 5 2400g rx580 8gb and 16gb of ram

my game is at 30 fps at lighhouse

[hazy veldt]

in tarkov, 2400g.

[dawn geyser]

Oh yeah? 4 4's are better than 2 8's?

[prime comet]

Probably the cpu

[open hedge]

Well that’s actually I joke I only have 2 slots atm

[hazy veldt]

*yes if you don't plan on upgrading.

[foggy grove]

Are you fr? I have worse specs and have 60 fps consistently

[dawn geyser]

Oooooo Interesting

[blissful cairn]

yeah

[open hedge]

8 2gb sticks

[hazy veldt]

depends on resolution

and settings.

[blissful cairn]

i use 1080p low settings

[dawn geyser]

I'll never understand computers fully

[hazy veldt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UkGu6A-6sQ for testing.

[foggy grove]

I run 1080p medium settings

So

[daring shale]

im new can anyone teach me how to play?

[hazy veldt]

turn off hbao and ssr

and if it's 8gb 580, I'd turn texture quality to high.

[blissful cairn]

also should i

[prime comet]

@open hedge found him

[blissful cairn]

do something here?

[hazy veldt]

no that's fine.

[open hedge]

What

[prime comet]

It’s fimconte

[foggy grove]

Check your temps?

[blissful cairn]

do you think ill have more fps?

[prime comet]

Lmao

[open hedge]

Oh

[blissful cairn]

temps are fine

[foggy grove]

My good thing about my pc is cooling

Its water cooled

[rigid light]

ok WHAT is happening to lighthouse

[hazy veldt]

well not from texture high, yes from hbao/ssr off.

texture high is basically vram check

[open hedge]

I cool my PC with Gatorade

[rigid light]

game just loads for 5 minutes and then kicks me

[hazy veldt]

so you have 8gb vram at 1080p, you have the room for running high textures, they just look better.

for no penalty.

[rigid light]

it kicked me 4 times before it gave me error 201

[blissful cairn]

i mean im asking cuz i actually had more fps at many games with higher graphics

than lower graphics

wonder if that works here too

lmao

also should i reinstall the game on ssd or can i just keep it on HDD ?

is there a fps diff?

[hazy veldt]

fps difference no, loading and potential stutter difference midraid, maybe.

[silver jewel]

ssd

[open hedge]

I’m only running this game on low settings with a 1080 and a very good CPU (I forget the name) with 16gb of ram do you think I could run medium with 80 fps?

[blazing brook]

i hate this so much

[blissful cairn]

no stutters at all and i dont mind loading so idc enough to reinstall it

[hazy veldt]

medium everything, probably not.

[silver jewel]

no fps difference, load time is a massive change

[hazy veldt]

hbao and ssr hurt fps

[silver jewel]

lighthouse is a map that kills fps, factory on all high for me is 150ish fps, and drops to 50 for lighthouse lol

[blissful cairn]

yeah but factory is a tiny map

[hazy veldt]

mmm, I'm at 80-90 on lighthouse at 5120x1440

[silver jewel]

im 1920x1080

[blissful cairn]

bro sees the whole fucking world around him

no cap

[hazy veldt]

but I'm also 170-190fps in factory, so you can see it's not that simple.

[silver jewel]

im gonna use that tbh

[hazy veldt]

some setting is hurting you more in lighthouse.

[silver jewel]

dlss will probably help more

[silver jewel]

i have shadows and hbao maxxed

[hazy veldt]

ahh

[blissful cairn]

im just waiting for that amd dlss

[hazy veldt]

and view distance?

[blissful cairn]

i dont know the name

[silver jewel]

halfway

to the max

[hazy veldt]

1500 is imho enough

[open hedge]

Also another question should I try to upgrade from a 1080 to like a 20 or 30 series or should I up my ram from 16 first?

[hazy veldt]

even 1k is usually enough, except for shoreline/woods looking good very far away.

[silver jewel]

upgrade graphics card

[jagged laurel]

I just upgraded from a 1050 to a 3070 will let you know how much it improves

[silver jewel]

basis for what you can run/handle

[hazy veldt]

how fast is your ram, what cpu, what resolution?

[silver jewel]

HAHA gonna be a world of differnece

[hazy veldt]

for 1080p, 1080 is probably more than enough.

[jagged laurel]

Yeah no cap built a very nice pc but kept my trash gpu

[hazy veldt]

low usage doesn't mean anything though

because modern cpus have too many cores

[open hedge]

Can I get back to you on that? I don’t have it all memorized

[hazy veldt]

and games only use 4-6.
so when you have 4 cores + 4 threads or 6 cores and 6 threads or 12 cores, 12 threads, it looks like your cpu is 'low usage'

but actually the cores the game does use, are at 80-100% load.

[open hedge]

I can’t get home to check for a few hours unfortunately

My CPU is my best part tho I know that for a fact

[sturdy star]

does killa kill player scavs? i just went into interchange and got killed by him right when i spawned in...like 2 sec in i was dead because i spawned next to him.

[blissful cairn]

thats the info ingame on lighthouse

does everything look ok?

[jagged laurel]

I would upgrade the gpu since it will take some pressure off your ram you can upgrade your ram after that if necessary

[hazy veldt]

very good even

many modern pcs hit 70-80c on cpu/gpu, especially overclocked.

[shell kindle]

I’d get 16gb ram before anything else

It’s cheaper

[blissful cairn]

thank you for the tips

i can enjoy the game on normals fps now

i had stable 50 on lighthouse]

instead of stuttering 30

[open hedge]

Skill issue

[spiral flicker]

i have actually very stable 30-35 on maps (except labs, factory)

i have no idea why i have so stable FPS

[blissful cairn]

also scav on lighthouse i just killed a random rogue, and gave random player scav 500usd out of 1000 that i got from the rogue

[spiral flicker]

pog

[blissful cairn]

• an tx-15

[terse oasis]

I have a GTX 1050 ti, Ryzen 5 2600 and 8 GB of RAM, my plan is upgrade to 16GB

[blissful cairn]

but i already hid it in stash

[spiral flicker]

tx-15?

[blissful cairn]

remember buy fast speeds cuz ryzen likes it

[spiral flicker]

where did u get it

[abstract root]

would anyone be willing to teach me the basics of eft? i dont know anything and i downloaded the game yesterday xD

[hazy veldt]

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[blissful cairn]

some random scav player shooting at me had it

i had to kill him obv to not die

[spiral flicker]

wut

[abstract root]

ty!

[spiral flicker]

i mean

[blissful cairn]

i mean i think that was a scav player cuz he had stacked backpacks in his backpack

[spiral flicker]

imegine semi auto BB gun

[blissful cairn]

idk if bots do that

[terse oasis]

One time I got a TX-15 and RSAS or how tf it is called but sold it to Mechanic

[hazy veldt]

also if you're a complete beginner, then jesse's video covers a variety of basic stuff:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JTUQJOjDxI

timestamped so you can skip what you know too

[spiral flicker]

no AI dont do that

[abstract root]

wonderful thank you!

[blissful cairn]

so he was just an asshole

that cant aim

good to know

[open hedge]

How do you play this game on 8g of ram

[spiral flicker]

he didnt have dogtag right?

[blissful cairn]

no

it even shows as scav

that i killed

[spiral flicker]

yea

[terse oasis]

Everything low and I'm in 60 FPS but with occasional stutter

[open hedge]

Bruh

When I have 8g the game wouldn’t let me anywhere other than factory

[blissful cairn]

he was so bad i lose reputation for that

[spiral flicker]

why is my PMC so fuckin weak

[blissful cairn]

because he didnt hit me once

[terse oasis]

Really? I can play Interchange, Woods and Customs without problems

The only maps i can't pkay is Lighthouse and Reserve

[spiral flicker]

[blissful cairn]

[open hedge]

It’s a graphic bug

[open hedge]

It’s a problem

[bold kernel]

[fathom plaza]

No one lets me hve peace. I find jaegers camp pick up the shit, then as im making my way to extract i enter foght with this dude lik 50m away and some bitch is shooting me from behind and i die. Rats everywhere

[hazy veldt]

#pvp-lfg

[blissful cairn]

[open hedge]

No

[blissful cairn]

nvm

[open hedge]

Aks are foldable

[blissful cairn]

LMAO

[shell kindle]

You can also take out mag and grip

[blissful cairn]

lmao

[hazy veldt]

remove grip / stock 2-4 free slots...

[bold kernel]

if you want to share i am open

dont worry

[shell kindle]

Do any of those bags store more than they are lol

[blissful cairn]

wait aint u a new player?

harley

[hazy veldt]

Also, unless you're hoarding then I wouldn't keep trash like grach, glock

[bold kernel]

thats up to your imagination

[hazy veldt]

ak104's are also not really worth using, since you can flea them and buy akmn

[terse oasis]

What I should sell or destroy? I'm tired of playing Tetris on my stash

[bold kernel]

k listentho u should just sell all of those

[bold kernel]

buy wallets dude

sell the meds

[terse oasis]

I cant

Im level 12

[bold kernel]

empty ur mags and sell the amo

dude how is this uy level 12

he stacked

[shell kindle]

Lolol

Go do some quests for flea

So you can get ammo case and medcase

[bold kernel]

u can find walletson dead scavs alot

[shell kindle]

And buy rigs

Nah wallet pretty rare

[deep sky]

what are ur secrets

[shell kindle]

Found like 1 before 15 and I was looking at all the scavs

[terse oasis]

Scav on Interchange

[hazy veldt]

vendor pistols, ammo that's trash, most mags, tan exfil, slick either use or vendor, sks/mosin unless you run them.

[shell kindle]

I’d just vendor the pistol stuff

[open hedge]

Best value

[hazy veldt]

Also, keep some chest rigs you find, like azimuth/blackrock+, since their slot density is above 1.

[terse oasis]

I dont know of any trading servers

[shell kindle]

Use Google

[hazy veldt]

I wouldn't mention that here.

[blissful cairn]

just a quick question out of nowhere whats the best ammo from this to just go nuts on factory?

im just going there with my pistols

[hazy veldt]

RIP if you shoot legs.

[open hedge]

Mention what 👀

[hazy veldt]

[terse oasis]

lmao

[blissful cairn]

and if i dont shoot legs?

[hazy veldt]

pst for face.

[blissful cairn]

i really cant force myself to shoot legs for some rason

[hazy veldt]

for torso, 9mm is trash.

[shell kindle]

That’s the wrong caliber for torso or face

[hazy veldt]

and if they have an altyn+, then pst is trash for face too.

[shell kindle]

Just buy flechette

[hazy veldt]

can't do stirrup.

with flechette

[shell kindle]

Sell all the 9mm

[blissful cairn]

im just going to die with those

ngl

idc about them

[shell kindle]

Don’t do stirrups

I mean just skip the step and the money healing and just delete them

[open hedge]

I do stirrup for fun

[blissful cairn]

for healing ill just use like grizzly

you know

[shell kindle]

Still costs

[blissful cairn]

im just having fun w/e

ive gotten good stuff

like that

[shell kindle]

I mean just do whatever

None of the 9x19 ammo is good for anything but leg

[blissful cairn]

like a week ago i got a ultra modded mp7 with just a shot in the head with m9a3

[shell kindle]

And pistols are bad for leg

[open hedge]

I use AP 6.3 for thorax and it works

[shell kindle]

So it doesn’t really matter what you run

[open hedge]

Fry armor via volume of bullets

[shell kindle]

He doesn’t have it lol but yeah I guess that would be the 9x19 round

[open hedge]

Craft is nice

I have much of it

Have pbp from cultists

[shell kindle]

All the good stuff is at workbench 3

[open hedge]

I don’t have workbench 3

[shell kindle]

Guess it’s not good then oh well

[open hedge]

Level 3 is good I hear but I’m fine with 2 atm

[spiral flicker]

factory be like

[open hedge]

I only run into nakeds on factory

[violet crystal]

whats the good ammo to leg meta with kedr?

[open hedge]

Sp7

[serene reef]

9x19 is shit for pen

[elfin gale]

kedr with sp7 is insanely effective for its price

[serene reef]

but leg meta is accessible and strong

[blissful cairn]

i just cant force myself

to shoot legs

its weird form e

[serene reef]

then dont go for 9x19

you can very well run cheapest ammo aka pst gzh and just try to head eyes people with no face shields

[spiral flicker]

this gun smacks

[blissful cairn]

#fuckjaeger

[deep sky]

u have jaeger unlocked ? pathetic

[spiral flicker]

jaeger ez

[elfin gale]

true

[spiral flicker]

first trader i had lvl 4

[elfin gale]

same lmao

plus, you get to use flechettes,magnum,ap20 for cheap

[spiral flicker]

pk is bitch tho

[serene reef]

Always

[stable island]

did tarkov fix any fps issues in the new updater

update

havent played yet

[spiral flicker]

when ur russian gangster

[fathom pawn]

is trading allowed? Like I got a 6b43 6a, a slick and a UBEY helmet, but I'd wanna trade with another player for a key

would that be fine?

[blazing brook]

no

[fathom pawn]

okay gotcha

thanks

[spiral flicker]

bro delete it at least

[open hedge]

If he’s just asking if it’s allowed it’s fine

It’s the act of it that’s punished

[spiral flicker]

[stable island]

which rhino ammo is the best

[open hedge]

Fmj

Still bad tho

Only 32 pen

[brittle osprey]

How can one do the fucking Punisher Part 4? I have died countless of times now and only managed to get 5 kills

[serene reef]

@open hedge

@open hedge

alsmdkjlasd

[open hedge]

Very funny

[serene reef]

moonshine case

[austere hound]

Yes, but not here

[open hedge]

I hate how bad my luck is compared to literally everyone else

[serene reef]

doesnt specify a weapon

worst case scenario you can try impact nades

[brittle osprey]

RFB's, M1A1, M4's,Mosins,Everything,really

[serene reef]

But the quest really wants to teach you to not use too much ammo

Even shotguns with flachettes are good

you can try to camp places like extracts or cottage

but i actually speedrun it by going resort

I think this wipe i went night raids as well

[open hedge]

Don’t extract camp

[serene reef]

waste of time ^

[open hedge]

That’s it rule number 1

[serene reef]

i dont think i extract camped since my first wipe really

there's just so much more you can do not doing that

its not hard to fill your bag with good loot worth more than 10k/slot

[zinc robin]

@brittle osprey dont be bad

[open hedge]

Rude

[zinc robin]

i did it in like 4 raids at resort

kinda true tho

like no disrespect

[open hedge]

It took me a while because I hate shoreline

[grim heron]

hey guys can anyone give me a dorm 206 key, i dont have flee market, ill overpay for it, or trade for it

[open hedge]

Would’ve been faster in any other map

[brittle osprey]

Dude,I hate the fucking map

[zinc robin]

just rush resort kids on there r shit

[grim heron]

yessir

[brittle osprey]

I would do it on Fucking Reserves,but not resort

[open hedge]

5 bitcoins

[grim heron]

how many>

[rocky ocean]

punisher pt4 flachette factory runs?

[grim heron]

suck me

[zinc robin]

needa be on shoreline

[serene reef]

pt4 = scav vest on shoreline

[hazy veldt]

Not allowed here.
And you might get scammed elsewhere or you might get tripped by anti-rmt algo if you do it too much.
So whether it's worth the risk and hassle? You decide.

[grim heron]

for sure

[rocky ocean]

yea

[serene reef]

cute pfp

[grim heron]

can we hop in a voice channel, you pick

[zinc robin]

just run m4 with 55a1 or some good ammo guns rush resort and just pvp

[rocky ocean]

ty 😊

[brittle osprey]

I am level 20,very funny

[serene reef]

one advice from me would be at first you can try offline factory raids with AI scavs and like tagged and cursed or smthn

and then just get warmups by going factory

[brittle osprey]

I am doing punisher for BP,i don't have normal ammo

[zinc robin]

then run rfb with m80

[brittle osprey]

That's the catch

[brittle osprey]

I did

[serene reef]

When you get into the pvp, it will be much easier

[brittle osprey]

Got camped 3 times already

[zinc robin]

where u get camped

[serene reef]

cause you will end up otherwise very likely too passive and overall scared

[grim heron]

okay thats fine whats your ingame name, mine is hitman0339

sent you a friend req

[brittle osprey]

In the main fucking building,can you imagine that?

I did the 5 kills OUTSIDE the thing,cause inside is complete chaos

[terse oasis]

How do I know what ammo is trash and what mags should I sell?

[brittle osprey]

Guys running Igolniks just for lulz,has like 4k or so hours

[vagrant cargo]

man dont care bout all that

[whole thistle]

You have to check an ammo chart

!wiki ballistics

[broken quail]

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ballistics

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

[terse oasis]

Thank you

[grim heron]

ny east coast

[serene reef]

more in depth i feel like but less useful:

https://tarkov-ballistics.com/

[grim heron]

i didnt spawn yet

i think we are good it should take another 2 minutes max

you can grab my dog tag after i put the key in my pouch if youd like

[hazy veldt]

I find shoreline night to be the most dead and easiest to run through

[shell kindle]

Yeah but it’s shoreline

[hazy veldt]

50% of the time you spawn on western side and can just run to path to lighthouse after doing whatever you need to do with a stranger you teamed up with for the first time.

[vagrant cargo]

makeup de drag queen yo me transformo

[hazy veldt]

the other 50% of the time you take the northern checkpoint route and have to kill like 1-2 sniper scavs, maybe 1-2 more at truck (unless yolo hugging the wall and betting that cultists didn't spawn at two green box rock)

safer than factory more often than not 😉

[vagrant cargo]

factory is the least dafe map

safe

[serene reef]

👌

[vagrant cargo]

I love eft monster so mich

eft-ammo.com way better

https://eft-ammo.com/nofoodaftermidnight

its literally made by nofoodaftermidnight 💀

[whole thistle]

Yeah but eft monster has an interface designed for malnourished toddlers

It's so simple

[primal breach]

eft ammo has the same ui

[whole thistle]

The eft ammo chart doesn't have all ammos

[primal breach]

but we can all agree battle buddy is the best

[violet crystal]

i see your in a trading server, why didnt you sell red for smthn in there?

[vagrant cargo]

damn

[serene reef]

[primal breach]

[open hedge]

He should’ve thrown it into the water

Would make more money

[sinful valve]

For spa tour part 5 can I buy the key or is it only in raid?

[whole thistle]

It's not an actual key is like bronze pocket watch

[open hedge]

Skill issue

Killa is the one I’m stuck on

He’s suck a pain in the ass to find

95 spawns makes no noise

[silent crown]

Just went in to interchange and got fucked by a 5 man, killed 3 of them somehow

[serene reef]

[open hedge]

I’ve started to hate interchange

[serene reef]

I dont like it either even though its been treating me right

i just dont feel like there's anything fun or special about it

so many passages its hard to run into anyone

[strange horizon]

is now a common occurence

[rocky ocean]

wtf

[night zealot]

people are sick in the head

[vagrant cargo]

which is very worrying

how to lose 16 fucking minutes of my time

[shell kindle]

Which map and extract?

[vagrant cargo]

reserve

the most dogshit map

most dogshit extract

[sterile minnow]

ive said it once and ill say it again

people are legit clowny cunts

[vagrant cargo]

im not against scav violence

i understand it existing

but camping scav extracts

[rocky ocean]

should decrease more scav karma than usual killing scavs from near extractions

[vagrant cargo]

is horribly low

[woven fiber]

what headset can i use with penis helmet

[rocky ocean]

comtacs

[woven fiber]

u cant use m32 with it

[rocky ocean]

or you can use gssh if you dont have ragman on lvl2

[vagrant cargo]

what

this was real until i realised how its pretty much terrible

[vagrant cargo]

good

[sterile minnow]

use any other helmet

[vagrant cargo]

m32s are fucking gross

[open hedge]

False

M32 has loudest noise profile thus making them objectively the best

[woven fiber]

i know u can use decent headset on the penis helmet

but forgot wich one

[vagrant cargo]

are you fucking braindead

[open hedge]

Just use Ratnik

[open hedge]

Here you are malding again

[rocky ocean]

@woven fiberwhich lvl are your traders and do you have access to flea?

[vagrant cargo]

how can you be so wrong

[open hedge]

Mald

Loud=good

I want to hear everything

[sterile minnow]

sordins goat

[open hedge]

Sordins are comfortable but not the best

[vagrant cargo]

ok literally just

use sound compress

[open hedge]

No

[vagrant cargo]

put volume on a million

sound high with anything

[open hedge]

No

I use what I have in game no more no less

[shell kindle]

Sordins goat

[vagrant cargo]

ok so ur factually wrong

m32s are only good if u have hearing issues and very low volume

[open hedge]

If you turn up audio that still makes m32 the loudest

Anyone with a brain would want that

[sterile minnow]

dont care, sordins #1

[split dagger]

No

[vagrant cargo]

with a sound compressor it makes literally no difference except being uncomfortable as fuck

[open hedge]

I love sordins but objectively they are not the best

[vagrant cargo]

your idea of best is loudest

[serene reef]

wtf just happened

[open hedge]

Yes

[split dagger]

Of course

[split dagger]

Loud= hear shit

[serene reef]
