[tulip gate]

tbhj i just awnted to try it out

[fierce falcon]

Thanks.

[karmic axle]

dis the crackhouse

[rain wing]

then don't complain if it's shitty 🧠

[karmic axle]

crackhouse has loots

[tulip gate]

i wasnt saying it was shitty

[karmic axle]

True

[rain wing]

it is shitty

that's the issue

[karmic axle]

but if u leave by 3

you'll be fine

[tulip gate]

i died because i was slow and chose to dome a dude with a class 4 helmet instead of leg him

[brittle path]

all i want to say is after two months and millions of rub I finished punisher part 4

[karmic axle]

intel spawns in the lbirary

TBH never found a single salewa in crackhouse

[rain wing]

I find a lot in fortress

[karmic axle]

i found like 3 at reserve med building once

[brittle path]

what i gotta do cause as long as there is no shoreline and no scav vests im happy

[marsh dagger]

how do i put this on my mosin

[dusky geyser]

you need the sniper version of it

[bold kernel]

Which mosin are you trying to put it on?

[karmic axle]

it says (infantry)

u need (sniper)

[bold kernel]

That’s an infantry mosin so it can only use iron sights

[marsh dagger]

oh

[brittle path]

how many pmcs?

[karmic axle]

lmao

my guy

i still havnt completed secured perimeter

im talking

to you

now

nvm forget it

best quest

no cap

[fierce falcon]

Do you have a picture of what crack house looks like?

[brittle path]

maks arent common unless found on scavs but 10 pmcs ugh

where?

[dusky geyser]

just loot a single stash, there’ll probably be like 3

[karmic axle]

wait

theres actually smoke coming out of Rserve tanks?

[karmic axle]

This

[karmic axle]

^

[fierce falcon]

alright thanks.

[karmic axle]

zz scav aggro still not fixed

DO raiders aggro if u loot raider bodies?

[brittle path]

meh sometimes

[karmic axle]

uh

ok

[brittle path]

rogues almost always

[karmic axle]

Rogues i 100%

i tested

they dont

but ok

i meant

on sacvs

obviously

[brittle path]

yeah but raiders arent always agro

[karmic axle]

not true

No

lol

as long as u dont

ADS at them

or no other scav

aggros them

they dont

i literally just wlakd up to one

and shot him in the head

[split dagger]

raiders dont see you when you ads, only when you expose your thorax

[brittle path]

? bruh what raiders wont shoot u as sav if they arent aggro

[karmic axle]

Bro why u so mad?

can u ccalm down?

calling people dunce?

[split dagger]

they will

[karmic axle]

they wont

[brittle path]

not always

[karmic axle]

Rogues dont aggro as well if nobody touches their shit as scav

[split dagger]

yeah your right I forgot

[brittle path]

they only kill u as a scav if they have been agro

[karmic axle]

Any scav loots bodies/kills them

[split dagger]

havent scaved in a long time

[karmic axle]

yea

[karmic axle]

thats a flex and a half

[brittle path]

pov u have 10k rub

[karmic axle]

xd

bro I was literally asking a question about looting them

[brittle path]

dont worry im there too

[karmic axle]

and u want to talk about lore

its like you're not even here 💀

[split dagger]

i blocked that guy

[karmic axle]

ooo

good idea

gottem

[mint light]

at what point of durability does the korund suck

[split dagger]

i wouldnt use it after 40

but idk the stats

[karmic axle]

Isnt it heavy asf and doesnt work at all

[split dagger]

korund is good but it has only 45 durability

[karmic axle]

it repairs quite poorly right?

[split dagger]

no it repairs super well

[karmic axle]

oh

[mint light]

really?

[karmic axle]

Lmao i alawys just chuck it

[split dagger]

yeah Max but i dont know how effective durability and that shit works

[mint light]

is the defender 2 better than gzhel

[split dagger]

I just look at number

yea definitely

defender 2 is probably best t5 you can get

[karmic axle]

I like Gzhel tho

no stomach protection

[split dagger]

it repairs super good and has a lot of dura

except killa armor

[mint light]

damn i found that shit on the dead scav on customs railroad lmfao

[karmic axle]

BRO THAT BODY is literally

a gold mine

hardly anyone loots it

cause its dangerous

[fervent ermine]

defender or killa

[split dagger]

killa is better

[karmic axle]

Killa is lighter right?

[split dagger]

i forgot about it when i wrote that

killa armor repairs the best

[fervent ermine]

which defender?

[hazy veldt]

gzhel has stomach?

[fervent ermine]

the doggo one or cultist one?

[split dagger]

cultist

[hazy veldt]

Defender 2 also has stomach.

You're not going to get a lot of defender 2 though.

[karmic axle]

omg

it does

WHATTTT

[split dagger]

you didnt know that gzhel has stomach

[fervent ermine]

unless you hunt cultists alot, you wont have any defenders

[split dagger]

💀

[karmic axle]

HAHAHAH

dont clown me man

;-;

[valid inlet]

Any Australians or people in Oceania want to do some runs together?

[karmic axle]

whats the best T6?

[hazy veldt]

Killa is king though, I wish it wasn't flea banned

[fervent ermine]

zhuk

zhuk is bad because of material

[split dagger]

zhuk would be the most efficient but if your trying to run it a couple raids its not good

[brittle path]

I mean its the best obtainable one that doesn't take forever to get so you're not that wrong. Even if you do get Kila's armor it its probably fucked from you spraying it down.

[karmic axle]

Hex > slick right?

[mint light]

guys im building an akm what recoil should i aim for i cant get it very low lmao

[hazy veldt]

zabralo best, if elite strength.

[fervent ermine]

hex repairs better

[split dagger]

yea but it repairs super well

so it doesnt matter

[karmic axle]

killa armor just better

[mint light]

i got 64 rn on akm is that half bad

[tulip gate]

ok i killed a pmc

[hazy veldt]

Hex is much better material than slick

[split dagger]

send pic

[karmic axle]

i got a meta AK if u wanna see

[fervent ermine]

64 what?

[hazy veldt]

but hex has lower base durability, so they're roughly equal.

[tulip gate]

oh wow money

[karmic axle]

Got this off some dead PMC

[split dagger]

if your going loud why not ak103?

its cheaper to make

[mint light]

i just did that for recoil

[hazy veldt]

you can't afford the combo?

[split dagger]

thats akmn

not same

[karmic axle]

oh

[mint light]

what combo

[karmic axle]

Oh yea

[mint light]

i only see vs combo

[hazy veldt]

bmd a3 combo

[fervent ermine]

search up troy on flea and you will find it

[split dagger]

kac supp is bis for akm

[fervent ermine]

gotta examine

[karmic axle]

50K

[fervent ermine]

might be better to run vs, probably wont find troy handguard rail on flea

[mint light]

oh its cheap

lol

[karmic axle]

anyone knows how to mod this?

[hazy veldt]

but idk, going loud on akmn is meh

[mint light]

is the kac on the akm or only the akmn?

[hazy veldt]

both

you need .308 adapter

[mint light]

oh ok

[fervent ermine]

mechanic

[hazy veldt]

then qdc 762 muzzle break kit (not the flash one) and then kac suppressor

[mint light]

im going all out on this beetch bruh

[split dagger]

what level are you and buy new gun

dont use raider guns they will jam

[karmic axle]

wat

[fervent ermine]

the suppressor is never on flea btw @mint light

[mint light]

wait what do i need to examine for troy gips

[hazy veldt]

he probably has traders

[mint light]

grips

[karmic axle]

Rogue guns have never jammed on me

YET

[hazy veldt]

qars rails

[split dagger]

gun jam after 93 durability

[tulip gate]

i have a poor loadout what map do i run.

[hazy veldt]

mechanic ll4

[split dagger]

or when it overheats

[split dagger]

woods but dont run 2 guns my man

[tulip gate]

ok so just the rfb

[fervent ermine]

rfb on woods

[karmic axle]

1 gun is enough

[fervent ermine]

saiga not good for an open map like woods

@mint light what level are you?

[hazy veldt]

saiga is okay for scav hunting, just can't take 75m+ fire fights.

[mint light]

i got 48 recoil

is that minimum

[fervent ermine]

pretty good

[split dagger]

yea pretty much

[mint light]

im gaming

[split dagger]

if you arent using supp just test it in hideout because the muzzle flash can be too much sometimes

[fervent ermine]

what level are you max

[mint light]

wow its a good price

only like 150k

[fervent ermine]

am i being donwalled

[mint light]

WAIT

[tulip gate]

ok onto woods i go

[mint light]

SOMEONE BUY ME THE FUCKING FLASH KIT

AINT NO ONE SELL IT

[fervent ermine]

sure

you want me to buy you it?

[mint light]

i need da muzzle break

[fervent ermine]

[open hedge]

woods my beloved

[dawn geyser]

Jaeger III has them for cheap if you have that unlocked

[neat parcel]

I haven't unlock flea:( next ammo type?

[karmic axle]

i saw in one youtuber's video

he has a component

[dawn geyser]

Oof

[karmic axle]

at the front before the supressor

[brittle path]

You ever just accidently spawn in as a pmc with a whole bunch of stuff on u cause you intended to scav?

[karmic axle]

idk what it is

[mint light]

oh fuck

uhhhh

i wouldnt use

[dawn geyser]

Oh, he SRX?

[dawn geyser]

Magnum buckshot

[karmic axle]

[split dagger]

you can use both

ratnik is cheaper tho

[brittle path]

Thanks

[neat parcel]

Nope I'm lvl 8... i can't kill anything and i miss the broke even when everyone have shit armour haha

Event

[brittle path]

scav for ammo

[split dagger]

if you cant kill them in thorax shoot their legs

[high hedge]

how do you have fun in tarkov?

[split dagger]

killing other pmcs

[open hedge]

when you get decently good at the game its very fun

1 woods scav raid

[neat parcel]

Survive

[neat parcel]

Ok i will try...

[neat parcel]

Is it effective using shotgun?

[dawn geyser]

If they don't have helmets, Very

If you can get into the habit of shooting legs

Effective as well

[split dagger]

its extremely effective if your shooting legs

[dawn geyser]

(CQB)

[split dagger]

even at range magnum buck is goated

you can basically 2 tap any player thats close to you in legs

🙂

[dawn geyser]

I hate shotguns with a burning passion

Because they're so cheap and effective.

[mint light]

only with flechette tbh

and ap20

magnum is usable

[split dagger]

you know that he killed you with a round that costs 130 roubles

[open hedge]

cheap?

[neat parcel]

Noted but it's hard to change your habit because in other game i always targeting their body for big hitbox haha

[split dagger]

i had the same problem

but people dont tank in this game like in others

[dawn geyser]

Still cheaper than meta builds for rifles =p

[split dagger]

if you have good ammo you can 2 tap majority of players

in thorax

[dawn geyser]

Also ew suppressor

[open hedge]

fair this cost me a good few rubles

[split dagger]

and headshot is 99% kill if they dont have helmet

[dawn geyser]

Still haven't used a meta SA-58 in 3,600 hours

[tulip gate]

ok i sniped a guy then died to a chad

[open hedge]

im obsessed

[split dagger]

your crazy

[drowsy gulch]

I just got this game two days ago, and I have no clue what im suppose to do

[split dagger]

you are missing out

[tulip gate]

im back to poor status

[split dagger]

it happens, scav a bit learn new map if you feel like it

[mint light]

u were never not poor

[tulip gate]

mayhaps i can take out this saiga and rush health resort so i can actually put my W301 key to use

[tulip gate]

i meant ultra poor status ok

[split dagger]

to get better in this game you have to die and analyze your deaths

[tulip gate]

atleast before i had guns n shit

[neat parcel]

Kill scav... kill a lot of scav...

[mint light]

LMFAO

[tulip gate]

idk what i did wrong this time tbh! all i know is i suck at the combat in this game because im used to shit like cs

[drowsy gulch]

as a scav?

ive been running a bunch of pistol only raids

[open hedge]

no never kills scavs as a scav

[split dagger]

It takes time

I watched a lot of streamers and how they play and just tried to play like them

[tulip gate]

bruh

[split dagger]

But little baby steps at first

Slow peeking scavs and stuff like that

[drowsy gulch]

thanks for the tips

[tulip gate]

i dont have any problems against scavs its specifically players

[drowsy gulch]

ill keep that in mind

[tulip gate]

when i play against them i play like shit

always!

[neat parcel]

I hate them... they kill me while im healing after a fight :(

[drowsy gulch]

what do you do if you have no money and only two pistols?

[split dagger]

Scav or reset account

[neat parcel]

Scav run... find hidden stach

[drowsy gulch]

does that require me to repurchase the game?

[split dagger]

I didnt just mean scavs, pmcs too

[split dagger]

No you just start over

[tulip gate]

i cant really slow peek against pmcs because they will kinda just yknow

dome me

[split dagger]

You get the gear back and 500k

[open hedge]

scav on customs woods or reserve (stay away from reserve if bad pvp and woods requires good map navigation)

if you can use maps efficiently than woods is good

[drowsy gulch]

okok 👍

[split dagger]

Yea I feel ya

There is a lot of stuff in this game

[drowsy gulch]

what about factory?

[mint light]

damn

[split dagger]

But by watching streamers you see how experienced players think and play

[open hedge]

low ammounts of loot but high pvp ( the weapon crates have decent spawns but its not worth the risk if you are new)

[split dagger]

Now you just try it yourself in raid and youll see it works

[fervent ermine]

unless you manage to rat out chads fighting on factory

only time i've seen geared players on factory are altyn and zabralo chads

[pastel current]

For the bitcoin farm level 1 with 10 graphics cards do i have to wait 25 hours for one bitcoin or all 3?

[drowsy gulch]

oh interesting, I take it as most high leveled players dwell there

[split dagger]

If you feel comfortable in your aiming skills factory would be great

[drowsy gulch]

should i play solo or in a squad(not that i have one)

[open hedge]

no its mostly low levels with shotguns

still dangerous though

[drowsy gulch]

lol, sounds rough

[split dagger]

You get to experience the pvp and thats the scariest part in game

[split dagger]

Playing with a squad will result you in progressing faster and making more roubles but playing solo will teach you the most

[tulip gate]

bruh!

[open hedge]

solo is how you learn squad is how you survive

[drowsy gulch]

got it, ill probably play solo until I can find who people to play with

[drowsy gulch]

hahaha, i guess shroud makes it look easy

[brittle path]

scav as much as u can to learn and make rub but if u need to level pmc all day

[earnest hull]

Just the one

[split dagger]

Game wipes every 6 months or so and everything you have will be deleted

Only transferable thing is your skill

[drowsy gulch]

are we close to server wipe?

[brittle path]

its like june

[split dagger]

We are about a month or 2 away

[brittle path]

ish

[split dagger]

We dont know the exact date yet

[earnest hull]

if you take the average length of wipes we're looking at mid to late june as a best guess

[drowsy gulch]

thats pretty close

[dawn geyser]

Goodness gracious

That is so far negative in ergo

It hurts my soul

[open hedge]

recoil is worth it

[tulip gate]

what map should i run with a mosin

[brittle path]

man can ads for 3 sec then he out of breath

[split dagger]

Why need ergo when his gun is already 10 feet long

[drowsy gulch]

factory

[brittle path]

woods

[split dagger]

Just hipfire

[open hedge]

^

[split dagger]

Tbh factory mosin is dope

If you can aim

[open hedge]

hipfire is unstoppable on sa58

[neat parcel]

It's easy if you get out around 10 minutes (custom)

[brittle path]

I'm an r6 addict hipfire is a difficult concept for me

[drowsy gulch]

what do you mean by that?

[split dagger]

Thats rough

Im the other way

[brittle path]

csgo?

[split dagger]

Whenever I try to play r6 I cant get used to no hipfire

[tulip gate]

im not used to aiming on this game

other games i have good aim in

just not this one

[split dagger]

Perfect time to get used to it

Run factory and try to learn

[brittle path]

yeah hipfire has basically been removed from r6 you have to be point blank or prone

[neat parcel]

When the time hit 10 minutes or less go out so nobody will ambush you

[split dagger]

Very dumb if you ask me but whatever

[karmic axle]

no

[split dagger]

Yes

[karmic axle]

no

Scav or PMC?

USEC or BEAR?

[split dagger]

Yes they do if your scav

[karmic axle]

rogues dont shoot scavs unless another Pscav fucks iwth them

[split dagger]

If your pmc they will always aggro

[karmic axle]

loot their body/ shoot them

[split dagger]

Nah man

[karmic axle]

wdym

[split dagger]

If you kill a rogue you get curse

For a couple raids

[karmic axle]

really?

i thought it was 1 raid

damn

[split dagger]

Maybe its 1 I don't remember

[karmic axle]

idk i was just runnig around killing em

they didnt aggro at me tho

so idk how it works

Other Pscavs might have killed them

They work like raiders

as long as 1 scav aggros them

[drowsy gulch]

oh that pretty helpful, thanks!

[karmic axle]

they aggro oon all

[split dagger]

That isnt true also

They aggro only the pscav that shot

[karmic axle]

nope

tried and tested

there was aguy inside rogue camp

looting

i looted rogue body he immediately died

[open hedge]

i just killed an innocent scav as a scav because of mistaken identity

[split dagger]

If you loot rogues you get tagged

They know

[neat parcel]

-0.3 scav karma gang

Noice...

[open hedge]

2 p scav attacked me they are now dead

[brittle path]

i just did that as well

[open hedge]

i just fought a 5 man of scav and almost won

[split dagger]

I always tell scavs that im a scav

😂

And use bear voicelines

It always works

[open hedge]

these guys shoot on sight so

[brittle path]

yeah works unless its reserve or lighthouse cause player scavs just dont care on that map

[split dagger]

I mean they prob would shoot me even if I was a scav

This is just to bait them into thinking im chill

[brittle path]

if I see any hesitation or sus in another player scav on light house I kill them immediately

[dawn geyser]

Also lowkey didn't have the mesa buffer tube examined

[earnest hull]

i got shot by another pscav who i saw didn't have a backpack so I offered him a spare one I had in mine. Him and his buddy lit me up the second the back was on the ground....

[brittle path]

saddness

[kind kelp]

almost won

pathetic

[open hedge]

i was bleeding out of all limbs and reloading didnt think there was more of them

i had the meds to live but he pushed me

[kind kelp]

lmao im just messing with you

[brittle path]

thats when u gotta use the ultimate weapon voip

[kind kelp]

id get killed by 1 scav 😦

[open hedge]

i tried they were not big talkers

[brittle path]

non voip users lame

[open hedge]

i agree

always talk to your victims

[brittle path]

rule #1

[earnest hull]

i just don't trust pscavs on lighthouse anymore. pmc's are more trustworthy there these days

came across a pmc that guarded me while i looted leftover rogues and he escorted me to extract

[karmic axle]

Server diff

[spiral flicker]

Imegine trusting ppl in general

[brittle path]

ok scavs in factory are very bugged they just aggroed on me as I spawned even though I have 2 karma

[spiral flicker]

Yep

[brittle path]

Tagila was there so maybe that's why

[spiral flicker]

Did u shoot someone?

[mint light]

if tagilla gets pissed they will be pissed

[rain wing]

tagilla is boss man

like how Max is boss man

of Max clan

[open hedge]

tagilla is super easy

[rain wing]

he is

[mint light]

unlike max

of max clan

[rain wing]

max of max clan is a gigachad

[brittle path]

No shots were fired

[brittle path]

Cause his AI doesn't work half the time

[open hedge]

ima head off for the night boys (i do giveaways on my server let me know if you want in)

[tulip gate]

[brittle path]

This is a serious question and it's not meant to be condescending but what is your skill level?

[tulip gate]

extremely low (in tarkov)

im good at other fps games

just not tarkov

[valid inlet]

Oh, I see. What is the discord I need to join for it?

[tulip gate]

oh shit

200k gained now

lets go

[brittle path]

So your biggest hindrance is map knowledge so I'm going to recommend two options here to start off with. Option A will get you more money, but option B gets you more quests and exp done.

[tulip gate]

i couldve had more but i forgot to bring my backpack

[tulip gate]

i know maps decently its just if i get into player encounters i lose like 99% of the time

[mint light]

what 💀

[tulip gate]

ok so

[brittle path]

Then how are u struggling to make money

[tulip gate]

i thought i had a loadout and wasnt paying attention

and then

i went into woods with my sniper

expecting to kill something and loot up but then i didnt have my backpack

[mint light]

a singular kit of mine cost more money than ur entire rouble count

[tulip gate]

so i just went to usec camp and grabbed stuff and left

[tulip gate]

because if i have to shoot shit i lose

[brittle path]

Bro I sucked at PVP in this game I'm still meh but when I sucked I still made 250k a raid based off of just map knowledge

[tulip gate]

and i usually end up in a situation where i need to shoot shit

[brittle path]

You aren't picking good routes for the map then

[tulip gate]

oh i dont have routes i just run to places where i know theres loot and hope there isnt people

💀

should i sell this second killa helmet i have

[brittle path]

Well, that's what map knowledge is knowing a map doesn't just mean the locations. For learning how to transverse a map start with reserve. For PVP do factory but the best way I learned to play this game as a new player was scaving reserve making 200k a raid learning PVP and how to move through a map.

If you want to avoid PVP at all costs woods in general is good just look up any loot guides avoid sawmill and the two big camps. The shoreline is pretty decent if you do the stash routes but it can get dicey with chads going resort.

[tulip gate]

i generally avoid sawmill anyway, but i rarely come across people at the camps

[brittle path]

The southern one near the popular extract is probably more popular than the sawmill to loot. The other one is decently safe besides a few questers.

[tulip gate]

by popular extract you mean outskirts?

or ruaf

actually i never see anybody use ruaf tbh

[brittle path]

No uh it's the road block one you either get that or outskirts

[karmic axle]

u only use it if you're near the obttom

cause usually you'll just reach northern first

[brittle path]

Ruaf is very popular for ppl who loot sawmill or the camps

I see way more ppl there especially cause it so open than at outskirts

But I highly recommend reserve as a map or if you are big Chad usec light house

[tulip gate]

no im running bear

[brittle path]

Same so I do reserve

[tulip gate]

i might just do reserve because i have a marked key on there

[brittle path]

Yeah great customs reserve and shoreline are great for keys and it's usually easy to loot reserve keys with no pvp unlike the other two

Plus there are so many routes in reserve and you can rat around or chad it up all while finding good loot. If you have flea scaving reserve will make you so much.

[valid inlet]

How much is 1 bitcoing in-game worth right now

[open hedge]

Haven’t checked in a while but I’d bet around 280-300k

[valid inlet]

Alright, thanks

And can I trade them for rubles?

[open hedge]

Yes

Sell to therapist

[valid inlet]

Ok, thanks

[tulip gate]

i have my level in my name 💀

[brittle path]

I'm on mobile so the names don't fully display of they are too long

[open hedge]

I’m also on mobile

[brittle path]

Gang gang

[tulip gate]

fixed

[brittle path]

Yes

[open hedge]

[spiral flicker]

Pog

[viscid kraken]

man night raid on woods is just a different game

[spiral flicker]

Yep

Poot dispenser here

Oh boi, tf2

[brittle path]

But like why tho

[karmic axle]

shturman hunting

[spiral flicker]

Cultist knife in your back

[brittle path]

Does that make it easier or just a higher chance?

[spiral flicker]

What else do u need

Probably easier

They see less in night

[viscid kraken]

questing in peace, except there is no peace

[spiral flicker]

There are thermals tho

[brittle path]

Are you using night vision or do you just go blind like Helen Keller

[viscid kraken]

yeah cheap 30k nvg's, you can see clearly 70m around you, any further and it gets foggy

[spiral flicker]

I should sometimes use my t-7

[brittle path]

Yeah I like to experience myself running into a wall or barbed wire for most of the raid

[spiral flicker]

[brittle path]

And then flipping out when I hear a scav and starting deep into my screen

[spiral flicker]

Sounds like skill issue

[brittle path]

Indeed my eyeballs are weak

Need to install thermal update

[spiral flicker]

Like

Even when u have cheap nvgs

U can see a lot

So

Idk how

U are running in wall

[brittle path]

No I have no thermal I'm blind

[viscid kraken]

im just saying if solo tarkov is scary, you should try night woods while knowing cultists have no footstep sounds

[brittle path]

I'm running around naked with a shotgun at pitch-black solo

That's when I'm down bad on a quest

[spiral flicker]

Lol

[spiral flicker]

They spawn on 1 place only tho

[hazy veldt]

Change your nvidia panel/postfx/monitor settings and you won't be blind.

[tall thicket]

They spawn in one general area, yes. They can spawn in small offsets in that area.

Fighting those lunatics on Woods is the hardest because there is a lack of solid hard cover and the terrain making it difficult to pick them off from long range.

It is ideal to combat them within the resort on Shoreline, or the Customs bus stop area or by mechanics containers.

They are difficult to fight because of their insta-kill capability and difficulty to spot first.

It's essentially you either spot them first and take cover and play it smart, or they spot you first and you're caught unprepared.

In summary,

Cultists suck to fight against unprepared.

[inland marlin]

they spawn in two areas lol

what area do you guys think is the one area?

[tall thicket]

Oh yeah, I forgot that Woods has the spawn at the church as well.

I was referring to the one besides Big Grey at the Saw Mill.

That one is hell to deal with.

[inland marlin]

lol yeah i always die to those, its too forested

the ones by the church arent too bad though as they generally have less cover and hang out by the secret stash cabin and theyre quite visible there

[prime comet]

I need to learn how to farm cultists

That’s my next step, good ammo is very much needed, it’s the only thing I’m lacking and it’s too pricey to just buy loads of it

[misty ginkgo]

M80

[prime comet]

Need bp

Or good 556 ammo

[remote kettle]

bro i feel bad i did my first raid with a UMP cause i wanted to give it a shot, and i killed a level 4 and a level 5 duo, that had just killed a level 22

but they were tossing nades and everything so yeah

[novel slate]

Check out some crafts should be able to buy materials from flea

[prime comet]

I mean if they’re tryna kill you

Yeah I’ll have a gander, crafts are pricey if you’re buying mats though

[rain wing]

hi British Max, of Max clan

[novel slate]

I just save the mats needed for ammo crafting

[spiral flicker]

I killed some juicer on factory yesterday while helping some guy

He had kektor with ap rounds

So I took kektor and I let the guy take everything else from him

I am the Carry Max

[spiral flicker]

[icy fable]

is it still the time of max?

[drowsy stratus]

hello,can we switch our weapon rating fire before one mission ?

[misty ginkgo]

Press B

[edgy plover]

Has to be in-raid

[fair sentinel]

whats up with a 6mil fee for a 5mil item?

[edgy plover]

Every item has a predetermined price - trying to list it far beyond that price (high or low) results in massive fees. It's why all high end items are traded via barters, as opposed to cash listings. You can't list many things for millions of roubles - without that fee. Prevents RMT but is somewhat frustrating when you don't want to barter

[dusky geyser]

i wonder how it prevents rmt

[misty ginkgo]

People would sell some shitty item for 50+ mill, and the cheater who cheated for the money would buy it.

[remote kettle]

prevents them from listing random items for large amounts of roubles that the cheater buys, thus transferring millions of roubles to the person buying the money

[dusky geyser]

ah, RMT with cheating

makes sense then

[remote kettle]

90% of RMT is cheaters selling

[dusky geyser]

i thought more of “5£ for a Rys-T”

[misty ginkgo]

Rest is some lucky mf getting a red and wanting 30 bucks 🙂

[remote kettle]

pretty much

[misty ginkgo]

I've been a member of several RMT discords - they do in fact sell "meta kits" for real money.
But if you suck, and can't get one the real way - you're just gonna die with it.

[dusky geyser]

exactly

[remote kettle]

a bad player with a good kit will almost always die to a good player with a bad kit

[balmy quail]

hey guys, I need help ASAP, if anyone could get into a call with me an guide me to an extract, cause im absolutely lost on woods rn and the maps aren't helping either

[misty ginkgo]

How long do you have left in the raid?

[balmy quail]

13 mins

im sitting in some kind of bunker

and shit, i just ran out of energy

[misty ginkgo]

Do you have any food?

[balmy quail]

nope

[misty ginkgo]

On woods, you're gonna have a hard time getting out then.

What's your extracts

[balmy quail]

factory gate zb-014, bridge v-ex and outskirts

[fair sentinel]

Is there a radio tower outside the bunker

[balmy quail]

yeah and also green flares

[fair sentinel]

Oh you're at scav bunker

Major F

[balmy quail]

guess im fucked?

[icy fable]

a bit

[fair sentinel]

Quite far away from outskirts

[icy fable]

there might be food at the usec camp though

[balmy quail]

nope im totally fucked now, there's a scav near me as well so i can't run off

[fair sentinel]

You can try to go south (right from the bunker entrance, facing towards the outside) and hit up usec camp for food, but be careful not to hit a mine, then just keep going south to outskirts

[icy fable]

you're at green, red circle is usec camp, outskirts is straight south

with 8 minutes to go... it's tight

[fair sentinel]

Yeah it's usually around 10-13 mins to get there

[balmy quail]

yep died to over exhaustion

either way i guess i didn't have a chance, scav bots were agro'd left and right

[icy fable]

you had a tiny chance, but full dehydration is annoying

[karmic axle]

this shit just tanked 3 headshots

beast

[balmy quail]

W

[karmic axle]

nvm

it was a hacker

no wonder

[balmy quail]

aw rip

[karmic axle]

XD

Triple headshot

M855

HAHAHAHA

mf was confused asf why i wasnt dying

headshot me through a softwall as well

[balmy quail]

zamn

[karmic axle]

damn

[balmy quail]

that reminds me of a day or two ago when my friend's UN helmet ricocheted 2 slugs

[dusky geyser]

i thought it would kill you to blunt

[karmic axle]

hackers be running lighthouse alot

[karmic axle]

damn

what slugs

[dusky geyser]

or does reflected ammo not deal as much blunt damage as it would’ve

[balmy quail]

it was something across the lines of like super performance or something?

I have it in my inventory, i'll go check rn

All i know is that it's supposed to deal 220 damage per slug and he ricocheted 2

[dusky geyser]

that’s a flesh slug

[merry swift]

hackers don't typically have top of the head as their target tho, head, eyes is way more common and would've onetapped you

Especially with m855

What I'm pretty sure has happened is that you were shot at by a rogue. They beam through walls at times and have m855 very often

[balmy quail]

yeah here it is

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/12/70_SuperFormance_HP_slug

[karmic axle]

nope

its a Player

[rain wing]

how dyou know?

[karmic axle]

i literally died to him

wdym how od i know

._.

same gun as well

[rain wing]

ohh

[karmic axle]

he cleared all the front rogues

as well

i peeked and he insta head,ears me

afterwards

tbh idk what he was aiming

but tc-800 Blocked 3 headshots

[misty ginkgo]

Cheaters are a thing in every fps game.

Just move on and have fun

[rain wing]

I'm still pissed after that time I killed a juicer and died to a hacker

smh my head

[merry swift]

Still super weird if it is a cheater

[steel oxide]

What's the point of bolt action 7.62 guns when there DMRs that can fire the same caliber with barely any recoil?

[merry swift]

To run M855 and hit 2 different hitboxes which both are commonly covered by helmets that stop your shitty round

It's either the worst cheater in tarkov or he just got lucky

[rain wing]

cheaper

anyways

I have an m1a

any builds ya'll can recommend?

[merry swift]

There's not really a point, DMRs are better in about every practical aspect. I'd say the DVL is very quiet compared to most DMRs but thats abt it

I like bolt actions still, feels much more satisfying to land the onetaps

[rain wing]

^

my aim also seems to be better with bolties for whatever reason

lmao

[merry swift]

Because you gotta take your time

[rain wing]

yeah

with dmrs I just mash left click till they trip and die

[steel oxide]

What price range / traders levels?

[merry swift]

With your sr25 you can just start blasting thorax and you can 2tap just about all players

[rain wing]

I have like 5.5m in my stash rn

traders all at ll3/4

except for mr jaeger

ll2

[merry swift]

You can basically run anything then

[rain wing]

prapor ll4

and thera but that don't really matter

everyone else ll3

[steel oxide]

Well you should start by getting the 22inch barrel from mechanic ll3, it lets you put all sorts of muzzle devices

[rain wing]

so I just experiment?

[steel oxide]

Yea, also another good thing is switching to the rsass handguard to be able to put a stock and pistol grip

[merry swift]

You can run the thunder beast suppressor

Which is pretty good at LL3

[rain wing]

right

[steel oxide]

What makes the gun so good is how much you can mod it

[valid inlet]

How do you tell a scav from a player?

[viscid kraken]

scav and pscav? or scav and pmc?

[spring sandal]

i assume he means pscav

generally you tell by movement

[torn copper]

anyone can help me with revision part 1?

[karmic axle]

bro im done

[valid inlet]

Either one

[spring sandal]

head, eyes

[rain wing]

you're fucking kidding me right

I died to shitty connection

omfg

[karmic axle]

its like my 5th head, eyes/ears today

[rain wing]

and I was running a giga gamer kit as well

[fair sentinel]

scavs and pmcs generally have different clothing and gear, its weird at the start but youll get used to it

[balmy quail]

damn i cant post gifs?

[valid inlet]

Alright, thank you

[fair sentinel]

generally I recommend if youre scav shoot second, if youre pmc shoot first

[balmy quail]

rule of thumb, does he look like a homeless man from russia? he's a scav, does he look like a military operative with 20 years under his belt and millions in the bank? he's a PMC

[viscid kraken]

player scavs move unpredictably like you'd expect a human to, unlike scavs who just move back and forth in a line. pmc's vs pscavs is the hardest to tell but usually pmc's are very heavily geared and scavs wear clown clothes

[viscid kraken]

idk there's this scav code of honor that if you hear a player you scav mumble, if they scav mumble back then we're good... if they don't mumble back i'm definitely shooting first

[fair sentinel]

doesnt work all the time tbh and Id rather lose 1 scav run than .08 fence rep

[rain wing]

how does this look?

💀

oh wait

I'll run the 22 inch

[balmy quail]

in my expert opinion

[rain wing]

not 16

[balmy quail]

looks like a gun

[spiral flicker]

[rain wing]

better?

[spiral flicker]

Do you have lvl 3 PK?

[rain wing]

ll4

[balmy quail]

if it doesn't have the maximum amount of flashlights attached to it, it's not good

[viscid kraken]

i see you got good taste with dp canted sight

[spiral flicker]

Buy qdc suppressor

[rain wing]

dp 💪

[spiral flicker]

FF3

[rain wing]

shit I gotta slap on the drum mag too

[spiral flicker]

Oh boi he thicc

[viscid kraken]

you're gonna love ads'ing for 2 seconds with this chonky meat
