45

[minor mural]

that Korund is on it's last raid

[bold kernel]

Yeah

[jagged laurel]

Can we get a f in the chat for the lvl 5 who just Magdumped my altyn with pst before getting hatchetd to death

[minor mural]

ditch the glasses!!!

[bold kernel]

Saved me a lot

[minor mural]

first shot potential is based on current HP / factory fresh HP. You're sitting at 80%

you're very close to wearing a class 4 armor

[indigo kayak]

should i sell this stuff

except the key

and esmarch

[spiral flicker]

This key is good

[minor mural]

Keep the gunpowder, sell the cables and KEK tape. Their therapist price is very close to flea

[jagged laurel]

[bold kernel]

Can't repair the gun anymore

Or with Prapor I can't

[kindred grotto]

fair

[minor mural]

@bold kernel your glasses are going to get you killed

[bold kernel]

I took them off

[indigo kayak]

i dont have flea anyway

[spiral flicker]

Necessary for factory and customs

[bold kernel]

but why?

[minor mural]

all glasses except condors and the green anti frags will glow like grey cat eyes in the dark

[bold kernel]

oooh

[minor mural]

they have rendering bugs and you stand out

[bold kernel]

alright

[kindred grotto]

You can open an extract on factory and shortcuts on customs

[bold kernel]

oh I was talking about the glasses but alright

[minor mural]

I killed a guy yesterday who had a great spot. Snapped right to his head because these gray lights were starring back at me

[kindred grotto]

oh lol my bad

[carmine river]

Trying to get farming pt 1 done. Gone onto factory maybe 8-9 times now, died every time. Down to basically no gear and no cash. Any chance a group can help me get it done?

[minor mural]

Up to you if you want to wear that Korund or not, but it's definitely on it's last raid

[bold kernel]

I have 2 other korunds but I just want to wear this one down so last raid with it

[kindred grotto]

eu?

[minor mural]

yep, as long as you know the mechanic. I do the same

[carmine river]

Yeah 🙂

[kindred grotto]

I got you

[kindred grotto]

https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/722946381588725770

[minor mural]

I wouldn't insure it, same some cash

[bold kernel]

What needs would I need?

[minor mural]

To kill or to force movement

[bold kernel]

I guess force movement

[minor mural]

cheap f1s are fine

[kindred grotto]

like 2 more imo

[bold kernel]

Don't think I'll be killing anyone with nades

[kindred grotto]

You can force them out positions rooms etc

[minor mural]

buy f1s on reset from prapor. Barter your ES lamps on reset, especially if they are not FIR

[carmine river]

Room full

[kindred grotto]

ctrl + r your dc

[minor mural]

I also love using grenades if I can't quite tell if a target is a bot or not, since bots always yell

any other grenade questions since you asked "which ones?" It implies you don't already know

[bold kernel]

Yeah I don't really use nades much

maybe a flash

[minor mural]

vogs are for killing. 2 second fuse.

RGD / f1 are for spamming. Cheap, 3 second fuse. Good to force movement

M67s can be yeeted like peyton manning and have a 5 second fuse. Really useful if you want to play fuck fuck games since the fuse is long. E.g., if you plan to fight indoors a mixture of f1s for flushing rooms and a hotkeyed m67 incase you need to cover your retreat.

They hold angle --> throw m67 --> they hide --> you run out without killing yourself

[bold kernel]

alright thanks

[indigo kayak]

is this a goodk ey

and where do i use it

[bold kernel]

Customs

[minor mural]

that's the one by the train depot

it's fine. It's a dangerous building to exit though. Zero cover and a 40 m sprint

what's nice is that you can spawn right next to it and then camp the hermetic door storage rooms (the ones at ground level, not the scav infested basement) and wait for someone to throw the switch if you hit the jackpot

[pure talon]

last chance to join

[tender cairn]

well i don’t even have the game so haha!!!

[icy fable]

♪♪ Big iron plays in the background ♪♪

[minor mural]

Whatca waiting for? Don't wait for wipe, just jump in and experiment

late wipe is the best time to play. Zero gear fear

[tender cairn]

i’m waiting for the money

i’ll get it around june 15th prolly

[minor mural]

gotcha. Well, obviously thats none of my business but do remember that you can buy standard and upgrade to EOD (or whatever) at a later time and you only pay the difference

[tender cairn]

no way i’m getting eod

[open hedge]

Buy it tomorrow

[tender cairn]

can’t

[minor mural]

Reeses what does the "Medic" part of your name mean? You cosplay as the sanitation worker?

[open hedge]

I provide way too much meds for my team

[tender cairn]

what’s the hardest scav boss

[open hedge]

I also provide meds to friendly pmcs I encounter

[minor mural]

Killa or Glukhar

[open hedge]

Or scavs

[minor mural]

Easiest is Reshala or Sthurman

[tender cairn]

what’s easiest

[icy fable]

Glukhar shudder

[tender cairn]

is sanitar in the middle

[icy fable]

tagilla is easiest possibly

[minor mural]

sanitar is spawn dependent

[icy fable]

easiest to cheese

[tender cairn]

yeah i see cheese videos of tagilla all the time

[minor mural]

sanitar's issue is that he has good armor and an entire grizzly in his butt, so if you drag the fight out it really drags out

[open hedge]

Tagilla has the ai of a tub of blue cheese

[tender cairn]

people just walk up to tagilla with a shotgun and start blasting lmao

[icy fable]

if they are semi-old, just remember that he doesn't get stuck at the blue containers spot anymore

[tender cairn]

nope just bum rush

[minor mural]

glukhar is hard because of the scav army aim botting you, and Killa is hard because he spawns in place of any AI scav so it's really easy to stumble into him and just die

[tender cairn]

alr

is glukhars gun good

[minor mural]

I've been killed by glukhar and his gang three times this wipe, probably a quarter of my total reserve deaths

[icy fable]

adidas man also squats in dark corners and just hoses you down

[minor mural]

scav guns are always broken and rarely good. You kill them for the ammo, keys, etc

[tender cairn]

killa is scary bro

[minor mural]

honestly you kill them because they are in the fucking way

[open hedge]

Killa is easy you just gotta find him first

[minor mural]

I just want to extract god damn it, why are you patrolling white king?

fuck

[tender cairn]

doesn’t killa zig zag

[minor mural]

he swan dives and has a class 6 face shield

[icy fable]

he runs a lot and will try to run around whatever cover you're sitting behind

[tender cairn]

dayum

i’m pretty sure every boss that doesn’t have an army is easy if ur aim is good

[minor mural]

if you can't pick him with a .308 you basically have to leg him and pray

Well Killa is a gear check. If you can't one tap class 6 "aim good" doesn't matter

it's very rare to just find him with his class 4 nape exposed to you, or take his knees without also dying

[minor mural]

and honestly if you shred killa's armor there really isn't much point in killing him

[limpid geode]

is this good

[minor mural]

It's my favorite rig for Manhole Cover extract (no backpack allowed)

[marsh dagger]

its nice for storing stuff like keys if ur a really new player

[tender cairn]

oh

[icy fable]

good amount of space, it's decent because of that fact

[tender cairn]

you can’t use backpack for that extract

k good to know

[icy fable]

but there's rigs with 2x2 slots, which end up being superior

[limpid geode]

xd this game is so hard

anyone wanna play with me??!

[marsh dagger]

i used it before i got a keycard/docs case

[minor mural]

yeah, us Manhole Cover rats go in with pistols, top loaders, and kedrs and either find some cheese and leave or kill a backpack and zero to hero a normal raid

[tender cairn]

are you able to carry the backpack instead of having it equipped

[minor mural]

no

[minor mural]

yeah one of the ANA armored rigs or that huge class 5 armored rig is probably "the best" for manhole cover

[open hedge]

I just use cliff extract

[tender cairn]

do u lose red rebel when u use for extract

[marsh dagger]

nope

[tender cairn]

or die

[minor mural]

no. However, being scared of reserve and not going in early is really missing out.

[marsh dagger]

the only knife u lose when u die is the cultist knife

[open hedge]

Melee weapons (excluding cultist knife) can not be taken

[icy fable]

any knife or armband won't drop when you die (and compass too)

[minor mural]

seriously, learn manhole cover. It's easy

[tender cairn]

why is cultist knife an exception

[minor mural]

because it is a cultist knife

[marsh dagger]

cuz ithas poison

[open hedge]

Because the devs hate us

[icy fable]

cursed item

[tender cairn]

the cultists seem scary bro

are they only on woods nighttime

[minor mural]

they are, they gunned me down after I killed a guy who had a FLIR

I was so pissed

[marsh dagger]

woods, factory, customs, shoreline at night have a chance of spawning them

[tender cairn]

uh oh

can they appear daytime

[minor mural]

they can appear in any raid once the game clock ticks into 22:00

[open hedge]

Woods 30% chance customs 20% shoreline 20% factory 3%

[tender cairn]

alr

[minor mural]

so even if the raid starts at daytime, they can spawn

[marsh dagger]

id say the cultists on shoreline and customs are the easiest

[tender cairn]

do they even give good loot

[minor mural]

my FLIR story. I killed the guy at old gas and only had 10 minutes left, so I just went through fortress to get to RUAF and then Trailer Park if necessary. The cultists were at their spawn and murdered me as I was leaving

[icy fable]

good loot and amazing XP

[minor mural]

Bosses and raiders are the most reliable way to find PVP quality ammo

[marsh dagger]

yea some of them have nice gear

[tender cairn]

wait do the raiders have that bear debuff

[open hedge]

Shoreline when in health resort are easy but when they are in the woods

[icy fable]

those are the rouges

[tender cairn]

like when u go to that one place on lighthouse i think

[minor mural]

Don't be scared of raiders (and bosses). It will help your bank account if you can learn how to kill them with shitty low pen hollow points

Click head. Loot undamaged armor

[tender cairn]

ok idc about the rouges

[marsh dagger]

wait which woods are they in on shoreline, ive never seen them outside resort

[tender cairn]

hard part about this game for me is gonna be clicking heads

[open hedge]

Path to lighthouse

[minor mural]

The church with the cultist markings that PK sends you to

[marsh dagger]

oh shit i might have to check that area out more

[open hedge]

You won’t kill them

I’ve only done it one time there

[tender cairn]

is there any fast way to get good after learning the starter maps

[marsh dagger]

why not

[minor mural]

buy six cheap loadouts and lose them all. Play the game like Hunt Showdown and chase gun shots

[tender cairn]

idk what hunt showdown is

[minor mural]

anoterh way to "git gud" is to remind yourself that there is more loot than you can carry in the map. Lots of beginners die because they spawn and loot around their immediate area, make noise, and die

if you spawn next to a jaegar stash, just leave it. There will be others

[tender cairn]

so just go to the main area first?

[minor mural]

"be ready to fight"

[icy fable]

and underestimating just how long the raid time is and how quickly you can run across the map to extract

[open hedge]

High grass and bushes you won’t see them and they will see you

[tender cairn]

i’ll start preparing to extract around 10 mins

[minor mural]

That's how this happens

[marsh dagger]

would thermals help sniping from like the swamps?

[open hedge]

You could get one of them

[minor mural]

they are cold blooded

[tender cairn]

wym

[open hedge]

But why would you bother going after those ones

[modern rock]

can somebody help me unlock the rooms on reserve such as orb 2 all the rb rooms, I need to get in there for kappa and everyone wants twitch arm bands for these keys

[minor mural]

Look at the those photos. I went MIA because I had to fight through the entire P Scav army with 10 minutes left on the clock

[tender cairn]

so when should i extract

[open hedge]

Ump moment

[minor mural]

The UMP was the PMC's I killed. I fired all 210 5.45 I brought in with me

[limpid geode]

lol i found moonshine bottle today

[tender cairn]

get full then extract asap?

[minor mural]

look at these stats Reeses

[limpid geode]

@tender cairn u should maybe extract when u feel like it

[tender cairn]

lmao ok

[minor mural]

It's not that simple. I've killed a PMC and left with a meta mutant 5 minutes in, or I've ratted around and stacked bodies until I run out of ammo or die. Each raid is different

[open hedge]

Accuracy ratio moment

[limpid geode]

some1 wanna play?

[tender cairn]

isn’t the mutant meta rn

[minor mural]

Part of that is 12.12 spraying limbs when aiming at center mass. Part of that is prefiring. Part of that is mag dumping a medical tent forgetting that the burlap is bullet proof

25% is normal for me

[tender cairn]

bulletproof burlap lmao

[minor mural]

I'm mostly pissed that I averaged 5 hits a kill when using 5.45 BP and .45 FMJ, which should be an easy two tap at 5 m

[tender cairn]

im gonna treat my offlines as a normal raid

if i can

scav war and bosses

i think that’ll be the most realistic

[minor mural]

Ammo is meant to be spent. I don't particularly care about my accuracy as long as they drop and I dont

[minor mural]

easy way to make bad habits

good way to test optics and learn how to kill scavs

[tender cairn]

idk what that means

[minor mural]

Offline raids only have one PMC. I would wager 1/3 to 1/2 the PMCS in each raid rush spawns to kill PMCs

if your spawn game is bad but your scav killing game is good you just die 30 seconds in

[tender cairn]

k

is that it

[minor mural]

it's the nature of fixed spawn locations and not that many PMCs in each general area. If they kill you, then they have 5-10 minutes of peace

[tender cairn]

is there a map that names spawns

[minor mural]

pardon? Every map has fixed spawns and we know them all

[open hedge]

Map genie has it all marked

[tender cairn]

alr

i’ll focus learning woods

then customs

[limpid geode]

is this good

[marsh dagger]

100k

[open hedge]

100k

[minor mural]

stuff that in your butt ASAP

[limpid geode]

ooooo damn

[tender cairn]

i’ll do scavs as my first runs

[minor mural]

it's also used to barter a docs case and build the scav case

[upbeat bobcat]

who should i be selling guns to?

[inner mountain]

no you should give them all to me

[limpid geode]

xdd

[tender cairn]

parts to mechanic

that’s all i know

[marsh dagger]

generally anything worth 10k+ perslot is good

the lion is 20k a slot

[limpid geode]

ookay thanks

[marsh dagger]

mechanic usually

[minor mural]

therapist > ragman > jaegar > mechanic is the order. Peacekeeper is the guy who you sell your "intelligence" items to (SAS drives, diaries)

skier and prapor have bad prices

[tender cairn]

doesn’t therapist give best prices

and fence is last resort

[minor mural]

yes

[open hedge]

Selling to fence is practically hitting the discard button

[copper flame]

I bought the game. what next?

[minor mural]

honorable mention that some people sell intelligence items to fence so that they get paid in roubles

[tender cairn]

learn

[minor mural]

since nobody else who pays roubles will take them

[marsh dagger]

generally when I sell scav guns below like 60 durability, i disassemble the gun, sell all the part to mechanic and then sell the final part to fence

[tender cairn]

does anybody not pay roubles

[inner mountain]

play game

[copper flame]

Too much work I'll just not play it

[minor mural]

peacekeeper only trades in dollars

[tender cairn]

what do u need it for

[limpid geode]

this game got so fking much knowledge i need to know

[copper flame]

Okay I do

[minor mural]

NATO and western stuff. 6000 for a quest

[tender cairn]

dayum

[minor mural]

if you want to buy m855a1 and eotechs on refresh, you need dollars

[tender cairn]

is it easy to get

[marsh dagger]

u spend dollars for weapon parts sometimes from peacekeeper

[copper flame]

What is there to know? See enemy shooty bang bang and done

[tender cairn]

lots more

[minor mural]

Yes. You can convert 140 roubles to one dollar, but it's very easy to sell SAS drives, diaries, and so on and make $300 each

[open hedge]

You will get nowhere with only the ability to aim

[tender cairn]

alr

[copper flame]

Anything else is too much for my brain

[marsh dagger]

u learn as u spend more time, its fun, greater learning curve

[minor mural]

intelligence items like that can go in your docs case, which is in your butt. You alwas get them out

[tender cairn]

ok good luck treating heavy bleeds

[copper flame]

I don't even have that

[tender cairn]

cuz shots hurt lol

[limpid geode]

but why do i learn these things faster than school stuff

[marsh dagger]

i moved from valorant to this and theres so much to learn and i enjoy that aspect more

[whole thistle]

Suffer

[tender cairn]

because it’s actually entertaining

[copper flame]

Will do

[tender cairn]

and you get to do something that worth your time (not exactly but yknow

[minor mural]

Tarkov has a time to kill best described as "instant". You won't survive your mistakes

[limpid geode]

how much fps do yall get??

[whole thistle]

This game is mostly strategy and game knowledge, nothing like cod

[tender cairn]

cod is point and shoot

[marsh dagger]

all the ppl that play cod and say tarkov is bad just dont wanna learn

[tender cairn]

tarkov is

uh

[copper flame]

I have 300hrs in Arma is it similar?

[tender cairn]

idk what tarkov is

[tender cairn]

no not really

[minor mural]

no because ARMA fights happen at 100 - 200 m and this game the fights happen at 25

[whole thistle]

Even if your aim is horrible you can hit a 3 mile flank and murder the shit out of someone

[minor mural]

you step out from a container and because you pre-arimed at 1 o clock instead of 2 o clock you fall over dead

[copper flame]

damn

[tender cairn]

i believe any gun has the power to kill anyone if u can click heads and use strategy

[minor mural]

@copper flame have you ever played hunt showdown?

[tender cairn]

and ammo

[whole thistle]

Except kedr

[copper flame]

nope

[tender cairn]

lmao

[analog frigate]

Yup just happened to me

[minor mural]

K. Hunt is the closest comparalbe game on the market

but if you haven't played, it wont make sense

[limpid geode]

solo+ beginner is so hard in this game lmfao

[whole thistle]

@copper flame this game is also kinda rpgish

[tender cairn]

lmao i can imagine

but i’m gonna have an experienced friend playing wit me

[copper flame]

rpg like elden ring? or mmorpg?

[analog frigate]

Especially both at the same time

[whole thistle]

Your first like 50 hours will be incredibly annoying and unfun

[tender cairn]

N O

[limpid geode]

my raid started gl

[minor mural]

Its like skyrim in the sense that the more you use an action, the better it gets. The more you shoot an assault rifle, the better you get

[grand quiver]

ayo if i get stuff ike gold chains or horses who whould i give it to?

[analog frigate]

My raid ended gg

[whole thistle]

This game's progress is entirely leveling, quests, and gathering items

And mastery

[copper flame]

ohhhh i forgot about that

[minor mural]

so a brand new account with excellent FPS skills is going to get dumpstered in a fair fight by an average account with perfect RPG skills

[marsh dagger]

yep and ur KD is gonna be hella negative

[whole thistle]

Real

[minor mural]

I'm convinced that's why in that raid photo I sent that I needed 320 bullets to land 70 hits to get 14 kills. My gun was spreading shots all over the target

[analog frigate]

Gotta kill those scavs

[minor mural]

cause my recoil control is like 5

[open hedge]

Literally facts

[copper flame]

i got both aim and rpg shkills so i hope i'll be fine

[minor mural]

lol

[whole thistle]

Accuracy isn't affected by mastery tho

[open hedge]

This game most players can’t use guns for shit but they have 3 battle iq

[tender cairn]

i played a similar game to tarkov that’s free but it’s kinda bad

[minor mural]

No but horizontol recoil is. I'm on target but missing thorax

[open hedge]

Cycle is mid asf

[marsh dagger]

coming from valorant, my aim was a little off because the camera isnt exactly centered in the middle but to the right of ur character

[copper flame]

ive played mobile game similar

[tender cairn]

it was on roblox that’s the problem

it’s like a bare bones tarkov game

[marsh dagger]

thats why right hand peaks are favored over left, cuz u expose less of urself since ur cam is technically to the right of the center of ur body

[tender cairn]

has few armor sets and guns

[copper flame]

roblox kinda popping off rn

[tender cairn]

idk i don’t really play it often

[whole thistle]

Escape From rust is horrible

[tender cairn]

i play like a few times a month visiting games i’ve heard about

[minor mural]

@copper flame shit like this is going to happen all the time

[copper flame]

same i just saw a yt vid

[minor mural]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJS4amIx20I&t=31s

[tender cairn]

rust or escape from rust

[minor mural]

watch that video. It's the tarkov experience

[whole thistle]

The tarkov clone server

[tender cairn]

haven’t heard

what is it

[limpid geode]

rust server

[whole thistle]

@copper flame but yeah this game is really unique and takes some learning so make sure to ask for help a lot here lol

[copper flame]

lmaoooo

[tender cairn]

wait is it eft but on rust

[whole thistle]

Yeah but it's pretty bad

[copper flame]

wait wait is it similar to stalker?

[whole thistle]

Kinda

[tender cairn]

or is it a discord server

[tender cairn]

lmao i can imagine

rust is semi bad in itself

[whole thistle]

It's an actual server in game

[open hedge]

Unturned has a tarkov clone server and I hear it’s pretty good

[whole thistle]

Modded

[tender cairn]

ye

[copper flame]

i love stalker it's dope asf

[tender cairn]

eft just doesn’t fit into rust

[minor mural]

I've watched that video a dozen times. I literally aim punched him into a headshot

[tender cairn]

like there’s no armor in rust

there’s no guns in rust

not enough of either

problem with the roblox photocopy of eft

[bold kernel]

I played it like a month ago, it's aight

I had a pretty good raid on Customs with an SVDS

[open hedge]

What’s it called?

[limpid geode]

is akm good gun?

[bold kernel]

Lemme look really quick

[bold kernel]

Yeah

[open hedge]

Yes

[tender cairn]

i mean you’d think

[minor mural]

PS or SNB?

[limpid geode]

i got from scav

[tender cairn]

prolly need to mod it

[copper flame]

if it was csgo i'd say you got csgo'd but it isn't

[bold kernel]

Escape From Unturnov

[bold kernel]

If you're on about ammo

[heavy bear]

cAN scav KILL rAIDERS?

[tender cairn]

depends on ammo and mag size i’d assume

[whole thistle]

It's not open world like stalker tho

[heavy bear]

WTF SRY

[minor mural]

The fuck is that? lol. Never heard of that

[open hedge]

You won’t lose rep no

[open hedge]

That’s the worst round in the game for it

[whole thistle]

It is planned to be eventually

[heavy bear]

OK WHAT I NEEDED TO KNOW

[copper flame]

ik ik

[limpid geode]

this ammo

[bold kernel]

I don't think I can get any other

[copper flame]

okay thanks for help i'll go watch someone play it now

[open hedge]

Ps isn’t flea banned I think

[whole thistle]

@minor mural ps is 7n1

[minor mural]

I was asking about 7.62x54r PS

[open hedge]

Also you can craft snb

[minor mural]

or did they relable it back to 7n1?

[whole thistle]

It's still ps

I thought you were confused

[minor mural]

no

[bold kernel]

1.9k per bullet 💀

[tender cairn]

alr i’m gonna head out but one more question

[open hedge]

Craft snb

[kindred grotto]

lps?

[tender cairn]

does scav war make bosses fight the scavs in offline

[minor mural]

Perfectly reasonable if you're using an SV-98 and only have 20 of them

[bold kernel]

I am level 1 work bench

I just need level 20 then I will get it

[unkempt ingot]

just killed a scav with 855a1 in adar

[whole thistle]

Beginner guides are like necessary to watch lmao

[bold kernel]

350 per bullet

[kindred grotto]

i mean lps isnt the greatest but its cheap

[minor mural]

also doesn't do anything useful

[open hedge]

I never have watched a single gameplay guide in my 1700 hours

[unkempt ingot]

lps does pen class 4 tho

[whole thistle]

It pens level 4, good for murdering shitters

[whole thistle]

That's why you're ass

[bold kernel]

I mean most people run level 4 armour so I am fine

[dawn geyser]

[minor mural]

Well before damage drop off 7n1 aka PS was the best for farming shitters

[kindred grotto]

I mean anyone with a lvl 5 armor is gonna merk the man anyway

[open hedge]

Yes I’m so bad

[whole thistle]

I'm so sad what they did to that beautiful bullet

[bold kernel]

^^

[whole thistle]

Poor kit

Actual 70k ruble kit

[minor mural]

SV-98, 20 rounds of 7n1, aim at the neck

wherever it goes they drop

those were the days. 🍺

speaking of 7.62x54r, want to see my "kill pmcs in office" gun?

[bold kernel]

yk I have an Ash 12 from farming part 1 and I am wondering if I should sell it or use it

[open hedge]

If you don’t have ps12b I wouldn’t bother with it unless you are legging

Which at that point a shotgun would do better

[whole thistle]

Ps12 is goated

[open hedge]

No

[bold kernel]

then I will not bother

[open hedge]

20 pen

[minor mural]

this is my tarkov shooter (factory bolt action) and office kills gun

with 7.62x54r PS

put the nipple on their torso and squeeze

[whole thistle]

It does so much armor damage

[open hedge]

Ps12b is much better

You want to kill your target in 1-3 shots not 6

[whole thistle]

Obv

But breaking people with regular ps12 is fun

[minor mural]

leg meta gang!

all your knees are mine

and if I die, you know they are cursing you and defiling your corpse

9x19 rip is my spirit animal

[open hedge]

9x19 rip in a mp5 sd

[minor mural]

alright, now I actually have a question since I normally dont start this late in wipe.

I do not have a bitcoin farm. If I want to maximize roubles, what should I do?

1. Do nothing, sell the GPUs to therapist
2. Build bitcoin farm level 1 and place a single GPU
3. Maximum farm, and shill crypto on reddit

[unkempt ingot]

don't build bitcoin farm

bitcoin is cheap af rn

build a scav case instead

way more profitable

[violet crystal]

1

[bold kernel]

What’s the bare minimum hideout stuff you suggest if i dont care for hideout this late in the wipe?

[unkempt ingot]

scav case

it's passive income

[violet crystal]

how much is scav case?

i dont get how people can afford to build it

mad expensove

[minor mural]

Work bench 2 so you can make your own ammo and quest items. Med station 1 so you can make pile of meds and salewas

[minor mural]

It's not too bad, considering a single successful PMC run is often 500k to 1 million

[violet crystal]

haha to get my salewas i bought paids of fence for 7k each which is 13k cheaper than ussually and abused the salewa barter

[unkempt ingot]

you get the money back quick

[violet crystal]

how much does it cost to construct tho?

[violet crystal]

not for me lol

[unkempt ingot]

look up item prices on flea

[violet crystal]

i never meet people

[unkempt ingot]

open calculator

calculate

[minor mural]

Successful raids aren't about walking out with a GPU or a meta mutant. It's the boring bag full of bolts and condensed milk that average 15k a slot.

A full 30 slot bag is 450,000 roubles

Well, if success is money

[unkempt ingot]

killing people is fun, you play game to have fun, by having fun, you succeed in playing the game

kills = success

[violet crystal]

yeah i usually just die on pmc money runs, i somehow manage to run into someone and attempt to mosin their slick, whereas when i go with meta gear there is no one in thelobby

[minor mural]

His question was about affording stuff. I'm not having a debate on objectives

If your successful raid is a fat bank account, you should pull 500k at minimum

[unkempt ingot]

run scav raids once in a while

ez money

[minor mural]

And wasted xp and rpg xp. It's a common way to play but I prefer to "scav" on my pmx

There are lots of poverty guns that can raise the gun skill you want and cost you nothing if you die

[unkempt ingot]

my scav is level 17

[true reef]

the scav has a level?

[minor mural]

Think of where your pmc, endurance, search, and attention skills would be at if you used him instead with an ask-74u and a mag of PS

[unkempt ingot]

200+ scav raids, less than 10 deaths, i would've died like 5 times as much if i ran the same route as a pmc

[unkempt ingot]

yes

you scav has separate stats

[minor mural]

Yes the scav had a level and his own set of personal skills

I just have a different opinion. The scav is easy but an XP black hole. The PMC doesn't have to be any harder, and you retain the xp

[unkempt ingot]

you don't lose shit as scav and it's way safer

[minor mural]

And thus the debate without a right answer

Anymore reserve is pretty safe for these sorts of runs

Since the bunker was added

[true reef]

And how do I see my scav stats?

[robust rock]

You have to be in a scav run

and you go to the overall tab and it shows the scav stats instead of your pmcs

[marsh dagger]

anyone know what ammo someone could be running to do this much dmg and almost black out my thorax in 1-2 bullets?

some silenced weapon on shoreline

[dawn geyser]

2 bullets, a lot of ammo could kill you

[hazy veldt]

2 million tops?

[dawn geyser]

Too many bullets to list

[marsh dagger]

m62 sound about right?

ive been dying to m62 alot

[dawn geyser]

That would definitely cut through like butter

[hazy veldt]

37.6 durability also

[minor mural]

What's the max?

65?

[marsh dagger]

45

[minor mural]

37 isn't too bad then, it's on its last raid. You shouldn't repair armor past about 80%

[marsh dagger]

why not

[minor mural]

Otherwise it drops a class (mathematically speaking)

[marsh dagger]

really?

[prisma hatch]

kinda sorta

[minor mural]

It's not an exact mechanic, but if you look at the penetration percentages somewhere between 60 to 75% (of ragman fresh HP) it drops a class

[marsh dagger]

could u explain the penetration math a bit more

im looking at ammo charts and dunno how to calculate how many bullets it would take to die from certain ammo

[minor mural]

Current HP / Ragmam Fresh HP is the armor durability. As the armor degrades, it's first shot stopping power gets lower and lower

[marsh dagger]

theres flesh dmg which makes sense but pen dmg is obscure to me

[minor mural]

The tens digit of penetration tells you the class of armor it beats on a first shot. The ones digit tells you how quickly it damages the class if you round up

[prisma hatch]

???

[minor mural]

32 pen defeats class 3 and lower and scuffs class 4. 37 pen defeats class 3 and fucks up class 4

Both 32 and 37 are equally bad at penetraring class 5 (on the first shot(

Where's that tool

5.45 BT (37 pen) has a 55% to penetrate a class 4 on first shot

[marsh dagger]

where is that

[marsh dagger]

what link do i use

[minor mural]

At 35 of 55 durability (60%) it has a 90% chacne to penetrate. This is roughly similar to a class 3 armor

https://dev.tarkov-simulator.com/#/simulator/penetration-chance

[marsh dagger]

so once a bullet penetrates, does it do the exact flesh dmg or a percentage dmg to flesh

[minor mural]

the moral of the story is to quit repairing armor once it hits about 75% of a fresh piece of armor, otherwise you're going to take a pounding

[minor mural]

Neither

[left hound]

can i get some help with supply plans and survivalist path thrifty?

[analog frigate]

Fuuck i hate other players

[marsh dagger]

bt doees 44 flesh and 37 pen so if the bullet pens, how much flesh does it do

[minor mural]

The armor degrades based on complicated math and a portion of the flesh damage is dealt as blunt. Your after raid report will read "45 damage dealt to armor, 5 dealt to flesh" of the 50 flesh damage. But the armor only degrades by a little bit

[minor mural]

somewhere between 40 and 44 if it pens. If you get lucky and pen a class 5 (3% chance) you might only do 30 damage

it's all very complicated. The TL;DR is...

1. If your round is 1 or 2 damage above a breakpoint (65 for limbs, 85 for thorax), you probably need an extra bullet to black it
2. If your armor is 60% of fresh, it has lost an entire armor class

so 44 damage BT is "88" after two hits and likely needs three rounds to kill because two rounds probably did 84 of 85

[marsh dagger]

[left hound]

can i get some help with supply plans and survivalist path thrifty?

[minor mural]

@marsh dagger armor in this game is needlessly complicated. Full armor will stop all bullets that can't penetrate it's class. Damaged armor loses a class at 60% and another one at around 15% Shoot them until they fall down

durability is calculated off the "brand new" durability and not whatever Prapor repairs it to

[marsh dagger]

wait so does it drop a class at 80% or 60

[minor mural]

It loses an armor class at 60%, so I'm willing to run an armor that is at 80% after repairs

but that same 80% armor I will nno longer repair. It's destined for fence

for something like the 6b3tm "rat rig" that is two repairs, ditch it after that

[marsh dagger]

i run mmac and strandhogg usually

[minor mural]

the original comment that started this was a Korund at 37 / 45. I would personally run that and trust that I have class 5 protection

[open hedge]

I run chad gear like

Anything

If I have it I run it

I’m fond of class 5 armor

Gen 4 mobility

🙏

[minor mural]

my gun is my armor

I play the game like dark souls and dress for fashion

[bold kernel]

As you should B)

[minor mural]

I'm actually serious

because for how great and wonderful the tarkov armor and penetration system is, at the end of the day everything stops buckets of scav bullshit and hardly nothing of the good shit

[open hedge]

Armor is only noticeable useful if it’s class 5-6

[minor mural]

so I dress to impress

[open hedge]

Class 4 is only moderately useful

At least where I go that’s the case

Some place not even class 6 will save you

[minor mural]

woods

my favorite armor on woods is that green class 3 flora

with the floral ratnik

[violet crystal]

haha kinda like me, i like running good guns but without a slick or smthn

usually run korund or tv 110

[minor mural]

My favorite armor is probably the ANA Tac M2 but with M80 being a thing it's a bit sad

I still wear it though

[grizzled isle]

why cant a trader buy my guns

[dawn geyser]

Durability under 60%

You can disassemble

Sell the parts to Mechanic

[grizzled isle]

ah

i see

[dawn geyser]

Main receiver to Fence

[grizzled isle]

thanks

[woven fiber]

damn bro u need more farm runs

[grizzled isle]

i got a reserve gold key and been doing that but i keep dying to camping wankers

with my friends

[woven fiber]

i hate reserve 😄

[grizzled isle]

yep

[karmic axle]

didnt know these 2 ospreys

[woven fiber]

it actually works

[karmic axle]

what does

[woven fiber]

insurance

[karmic axle]

LMAO

my insurance laways come back

my guns too shit

nobody wants it

[woven fiber]

good for u lol

[karmic axle]

why u using mmac with SR-25

the fuck

[dry belfry]

That's literally my kit

[woven fiber]

i have like 5 sr25s

i didnt really care

[dry belfry]

MMAC works well with SR-25 because you shouldn't be exposing your fuckin stomach using an SR-25 lmao

[woven fiber]

since anyone who can kill me will pen anything

[karmic axle]

huhh??

what the point of buyin this shit

[woven fiber]

0/1200

fence right? everyone sells all the shit they dont need to fence

[karmic axle]

xd

didnt know it would still be 0

[woven fiber]

i mean same as fuel

[karmic axle]

but

u cant actually

do anything with it

right

[woven fiber]

rate the drip

[karmic axle]

9/10

[woven fiber]

lmaoo

ive been laughing at this scav for like 2 min now

[karmic axle]

you'd laugh if I showed u a picture of a lettuce

[frosty quarry]

💀

[grizzled isle]

is the Rhino revolver good

[karmic axle]

Anybody wanna buy some contraband

[frosty quarry]

no, there are definetly way better side arm options

[grizzled isle]

i decided to go and sell all weapons since broke and i hate assault rifles, so far ive been actually enjoying pistols

im gonna give the revolver a go

i mean i can even manage with a damn PM and TT pistol

M9A3 by far my favourite

[karmic axle]

the pistol Chad

[silver scroll]

If you like a steamer like the m9a3 you'll love the usp 45

[karmic axle]

if u lost the usp-45

you'll love the glock fischer

[grizzled isle]

i noticed the USP but havent given it a go yet

[woven fiber]

bro u cant make this u

reshala is right next to me

[grizzled isle]

should i be happy or na

[karmic axle]

yes

[woven fiber]

yes

good ammo

fuck this im out

[karmic axle]

lkmao

wrong server?

[tender cairn]

i think they should make it to where u keep ur stuff when u lose connection

[karmic axle]

would be abused

MASSIVELY

[tender cairn]

yeah

idk how they would prevent people just going into their internet tab and disconnecting

but still would be a good feature if they figured out a way to prevent that

[pure talon]

@tender cairnyou got the game already?

🎉 META / T7 GIVEAWAY 🎉

5 minutes from now (at :30) entries will begin and be open for the next 10 minutes (till :40). The first 7 people who DM me the phrase "Lottery" will be entered. The winner will be decided shortly after in a lottery.

The winner will receive a full meta gearset, with a chance for the legendary T-7 thermal goggles!
Anyone can enter, no matter where are you from, what your level is, how may hours you have, or even if you've never participated in one of my quizzes.

[bold kernel]

You don't

[tulip gate]

you can get back into the raid when you lose connection

[dry belfry]

If you can't restore your internet in 40min then maybe just move

[tulip gate]

your character just stays in physically but sits in place

and if you die then you lose everything

[severe bison]

im crafting something in my workbench do i need to stay in game to let it craft?

[maiden sky]

No

[severe bison]

ty

[slender lagoon]

anyone wanna help me farm rogues on lighthouse lfg lighthouse 20

[shadow elbow]

anyone know whats happened

i had them yesterday

[dawn geyser]

Current bug

We're looking into it.

[shadow elbow]

oh ok

[tender cairn]

no lmaoo

[shadow elbow]

this a good gun lol ?

[teal brook]

who wants to carry

[barren scroll]

wtf

[dawn geyser]

Yep, can find anything on those shelves

[pure talon]

legend says someone found a ticket out of Tarkov there and managed to escape.

it's like "giving tree" on Customs

[west hound]

anybody want to team up? Just recently bought tarkov and I'm getting absolutely shit on by duos because I am new to the game and also because I'm always outnumbered Wondering if anyone is interested in running with me for a bit

[slender lagoon]

found an HK there once

[slender lagoon]

sure im only level 14 and suck

but sure

[west hound]

its ok we can be shit at the game together

[slender lagoon]

pog

[west hound]

are you on rn?

[slender lagoon]

what map?

and yea

[west hound]

any map i dont mind mate

[slender lagoon]

im trynna farm rogues on lighthouse

its hard tho

hb customs?

[west hound]

ok ill help you

yeah man i'll do whatever honestly

[slender lagoon]

ight wanna vc or a server channel

[west hound]

lets jump in a VC

[slender lagoon]

ight

[frosty elk]

anyone down to help i just bought the game today don 2 scavs

[grizzled isle]

Any budget pistol chad gear

So far ive used 6b something something helmet and either those turtleshell armors or armor rigs and the Gsh headgear

Or so

Ping me with the recommendations so i can

[karmic axle]

they remove keycards from wallets?

so the only way to get keycards is keycard spawns

[kindred grotto]

keycards from keycard holders yes

[icy fable]

does anyone happen to have a cheap build for the ak-74u (punisher part 3) that's "usable", i.e. doesn't have to be good, as long as it drops scavs and isn't a complete nightmare

[bold kernel]

Do you have access to LL3 Ragman?

[queen lily]

RAN ONTO ANOTHER FUCKING PMC

[bold kernel]

That tends to happen

[queen lily]

in a row is unlikely

[grizzled isle]

No

Fence for (propably) high end armor

[bold kernel]

It’s more rare to not find another pmc in a raid…

[queen lily]

i was scav

usually never find pmc on reserve

[grizzled isle]

Whyd you take a screenshot instead of engaging

[queen lily]

that was after

i was recording

[grizzled isle]

I see

[queen lily]

found the video of when a scav ignored 2 rounds to the head

[bold kernel]

I wouldn’t even consider fence for any items. Before you get to LL3 Ragman I would say running a 6B or the other worse 6B from the flea market. I didn’t buy any armour until I got to LL3 Rag because it’s so bad and a waste of roubles. There’s plenty of shitty armour on scavs early on for new players

[grizzled isle]

Ah yes, last wipe was a nightmare for scav headshots

[bold kernel]

Basically If you must, don’t spend more than 60k on armour, don’t buy it unless it’s more than 80% durability and always T4 or better

[barren scroll]

its important quest? because for me its impossible to complete

[grizzled isle]

The satisfaction of onetapping a scav with the worst PM round in CQB

[bold kernel]

Yeah every quest is important you need them all to get high level traders. Very early quests like this one are great because you get exp and some barter items that are hard to get without flea.

What makes it feel impossible to you?

[barren scroll]

like 80% i cant even get to office area, or when i get in there no pmc for like 5-10 mins

[grizzled isle]

Use your gun to lure them

Then go to the second room and peek them since they expecting you to be in the office itself

[bold kernel]

Factory is a quick paced map, there’s only a few pmcs and they usually all fight in the first 5 minutes and then extract.

Build some kits and plan to rush into office, don’t bother waiting more than 10 minutes, try shooting, nades, or voip to get some action.

If the whole map is quiet and no one fought you in office, just reset.

Of course you can just play the raids normally but that’s like the optimized way of doing that quest

[weary crown]

get a flechette shotgun and jujst fucking spray at anything that moves and boom dead people

[bold kernel]

They’re probably too low lvl for flechette

[red vortex]

what the best 12 gauge round available at level 1 traders?

[bold kernel]

They’re all absolutely terrible haha

[red vortex]

well im only really gonna be hunting scavs rn

[bold kernel]

Go for whatever kind of slugs you can get

The buckshot is going to be unreliable. Aim for the head because they’re all going to tickle the body if they have any gear

[red vortex]

okay, im gonna run grizzlys and the double barrel as a budget kit

[barren scroll]

im 22 lvl rn...

[bold kernel]

Is that too low?

Lvl 22 and still doing office kills? Isn’t that like a lvl 5 quest?

[icy fable]

i'm doing punisher 3 at level 32

[bold kernel]

Im lv 39 and didnt do single quest on lighthouse besides hermit

I just dont like that map

[icy fable]

because I misread the task names and though that was the UN-roleplaying quest and decided fuck that

[icy fable]

not even 1 quest on lighthouse for me

[viscid kraken]

im lv30

[bold kernel]

:O

I just play reserve and customs

[grizzled isle]

Any recommended 9x19mm rounds?

[bold kernel]

RIP, AP6.3, PBP

[grizzled isle]

With AP

Like

[bold kernel]

I wouldn’t recommend 9mm at all though.

[grizzled isle]

Best AP round

Im testing the Rhino thus asking for the AP rounds @bold kernel

And can i get them from Fence

[bold kernel]

Fence just resells whatever garbage players sell to him for a markup. Most players will never sell to fence because he gives the lowest sell rates in the game

[grizzled isle]

Hmm

[bold kernel]

AP6.3 can only be crafted

Use the workbench.

[grizzled isle]

Is it good?

[cold fog]

What tier of workbench?

[true reef]

Unless you kidnap all traders

[bold kernel]

It’s pretty bad. But it’s one of the best for 9mm. The whole caliber is bad

[calm sorrel]

anything 9x19 is ass

[grizzled isle]

In pistol standards?

[calm sorrel]

in killing standards

[grizzled isle]

Hm

[bold kernel]

2

[grizzled isle]

I mean i can onetap scavs with pm and thats good enough for me

Just looking for something with more stopping power

[calm sorrel]

use a rifle

[grizzled isle]

I hate rifles

[calm sorrel]

use a shotgun

[grizzled isle]

At max bolt action for missions

[bold kernel]

It’s also the second worst pistol.

SRIMP
Five Seven
USP

Those are the usable pistols but are still outclassed by bigger calibers obviously

[grizzled isle]

Bad experiencr

[calm sorrel]

@grizzled isle pistols suck broooo

[bold kernel]

That’s the thing @grizzled isle literally any gun and ammo can be used to kill scavs. We build guns and kits to be ready to kill pmcs

[calm sorrel]

siiiii

[grizzled isle]

I hate metas

I wanna go off meta

In literally every game

[grand quiver]

honestly go for guns that look cool

[calm sorrel]

dont use meta then

[grand quiver]

since any gun can kill with the right ammo

[grizzled isle]

On example, pm with 84 round mag

[grizzled isle]

Rhino looks cool and is cheap

[bold kernel]

Try the APS with an 80 rounder, full auto and a shitload of bullets.!

[calm sorrel]

if your looking for more stopping power move off of pistol caliber and you will be going in the right direction

[bold kernel]

If you use shitty ammo never aim for the body, always the legs

[grizzled isle]

APS can get extended?

Since when

Note, havent used APS much since 20 round mag only

[bold kernel]

It’s one of those dumb pistols might not be the APS

9x18mm that much I remember

[grizzled isle]

Pm has 84 round mag

Idk but i get a boner when i get kills with the worst shit and rub that on the people's face who told me i cant kill shit

[bold kernel]

You could also try a glock with a 50 rounder of RIP, just shred whatever you aim at

[grizzled isle]

Yeah

[bold kernel]

I think it’s cooler to kill multiple people consistently than kills with a shitty gun but that’s just me

[calm sorrel]

yea killing 1 pmc with shit gear vs killing a 5 man

[grizzled isle]

The reason i hate automatics in tarkov

Hitreg

Its horrible

[calm sorrel]

is not

[grizzled isle]

Listen

[bold kernel]

Never had a problem

Listen!

[calm sorrel]

desync is the only issue

and that isnt even really a problem

[vapid anvil]

me neither. whenever i think i had a problem i rewatch the clip and it was like 2mm off their body

even if i thought it hit lol

[grizzled isle]

I was sitting in a corner with post wipe M4, a pmc walked past me noticing me, i emptied half a mag before dying to shotty to face, 3 hits on him for 134 dmg

[bold kernel]

HK416 good or not?

should I mod it out and use it

[calm sorrel]

hk is decent

[bold kernel]

or should I leave it because 5.56

[calm sorrel]

so get better???

[grizzled isle]

I have never had a good experience with automatics

[calm sorrel]

ill take you on a raid and show you a good time

[grizzled isle]

How can i get better if the game wont let me

[calm sorrel]

auto is amazing

the game isnt the thing holding you back

you ask for better stopping power i answer use rifle

you only use pistol sounds like a hold back

idk any player that uses a pistol and lives

other then maybe landmark

[grizzled isle]

Also getting better requires money, i went on a raid in reserve with the VO-RB key, tier 5 helmet and trooper armor, get the stuff and prepare to leave but a scav player onetaps with a fucking BP round

[vapid anvil]

idk one time i went to labs with a 57 and killed 2 kitted lvl 10s

[calm sorrel]

ask for help

[grizzled isle]

Cost me aprox 200k

I do raids with my buds

[calm sorrel]

do they also struggle??

[grizzled isle]

Not much

[calm sorrel]

weird

[grizzled isle]

I seem to be the only one getting onetapped

[calm sorrel]

wear alton

rys-T

[grizzled isle]

Theyve had their downfalls but i seem to be having it constantly

Lemme explain the BP

So

[calm sorrel]

figure out what is causing it man

[grizzled isle]

You know the white knight in reserve

[calm sorrel]

like positioning or what ever it is

[grizzled isle]

So

[vapid anvil]

save clip every time u die, analyze clip and hate urself for not learning anything next time

[calm sorrel]

fact

[bold kernel]

Wearing better amour doesn’t stop you from getting shot. It just makes it better when you do haha

Positioning and movement is way more important

[grizzled isle]

Me and my bud were entering a room, and i saw a scav in the corner of my eye, hear a single shot and die, my friend who was behind me entering the room didnt take a single hit

[calm sorrel]

yea well if his issue is he keeps getting one tapped an alton could change that for him

[bold kernel]

An altyn removes your headset, being able to hear gives you soooo much intel

[calm sorrel]

was it a scav that shot you in the head

[grizzled isle]

Scav player

[bold kernel]

You could have cleared that room better, never just walk into a room

[barren scroll]

clips where 8 times in a row head-eyes/jaws in 00:00:07 really help's...yeah

[bold kernel]

Yeah they do

[vapid anvil]

it sure does. where did you die? were you in the open? did you push something you shouldnt have?

[bold kernel]

If your clips are like that consider changing your pathing and travel routes

[grizzled isle]

Oh na, my other friend went in first and cleared it, i was second and the scav p crawled to the hallway from corner

[calm sorrel]

newbs arguing with players with experience love it

[grizzled isle]

I was checking the other side of the hallway

[bold kernel]

I mean shit happens and all that but at the end of the day, who died? I do the same thing but everything that happens to you is your fault

In one way or another

[grizzled isle]

And when i turned to the room i saw the scav p on the otherside of the hallway

[calm sorrel]

why didnt you shoot him

[vapid anvil]

too busy voiping

[calm sorrel]

fact

[grizzled isle]

I died the moment i saw him in the corner, i did start turning to him but my reflexes arent that fast

[calm sorrel]

gotcha

[grizzled isle]

Theyre not slow either

[calm sorrel]

work on bettering your reflex then

[vapid anvil]

aim labs

[grizzled isle]

I do that

[calm sorrel]

yea understandable you need to be fast to kill players

aim labs doesnt translate to tarkov

[grizzled isle]

But i wasnt talking about reflexes but rather my horrible luck

[calm sorrel]

how man hours you got

[vapid anvil]

reflex, not really precision aiming

[calm sorrel]

fair

[grizzled isle]

Like i said before the 3rd bud behind me didnt get shot after i died and he didnt kill him the moment either

155 hours in tarkov

[bold kernel]

You didn’t do anything wrong but once you die in the same circumstances 5 or 6 more times you’ll learn how to take it differently

[calm sorrel]

thats your issue

put 5k on tarky

[bold kernel]

That do be the issue

You need atleast 6000 hours to not die in that situation

[grizzled isle]

Anyways

[calm sorrel]

sorry that the truth is harsh but yea most of tarkov players have 5k plus

[grizzled isle]

Any recommended not highend pistols?

I like the feeling of them

Its really satisfying to down with them

[calm sorrel]

its all experience that is the only thing that wil make you better

[grizzled isle]

Ik

[calm sorrel]

wym?

[grizzled isle]

To reason with pistols, i dont seek kills or shit in games, i like the satisfaction i get from killing, on example the Toz, i actually killed a "chad" and Tagilla with the toz with 4x sight and highend slugs

[grizzled isle]

I.e the 1911, M9A3

[bold kernel]

Recommend bad guns for greyhound

He like the challenge

[grizzled isle]

This

The challenge

[calm sorrel]

heres what im trying to say, i kill things all day long and focus on making it out of the raid with the 5 players loot ive got in my backpack

the one instance of you killing a chad

[grizzled isle]

I dont like taking 300k worth modded AKs and just spraying and killing, its not fun, especially if you die to a sniper rat

[calm sorrel]

what dont you like ab bringing an amazing gun into raid??

you dont like good gear??

[quartz iron]

quick question, if youre eu and you switch to all NA servers do you also share their flea?

[calm sorrel]

flea is global im pretty sure

[grizzled isle]

Never said that, it just feels boring to kill in instance without a challenge

[calm sorrel]

accually i know it is

[dawn geyser]

[calm sorrel]

good players fighting good players will never be easy

allways a challenge

[grizzled isle]

Of course i take high end stuff to get cash every now and then but thats about it

[minor mural]

NOT the TT, Grach, or Shrimp. All of the russian pistols do not shoot straight. Baretta and USP are great

[grizzled isle]

Thanks

[minor mural]

Back when jams were possible on the first shot I would take an M1911 with FMJ and zero spare mags. Got a few kills with it

[grizzled isle]

I love the beretta

Hows the 1911

[minor mural]

I woudl argue that having a 20k pistol still isn't a terrible idea if money isn't a problem

[grizzled isle]

I played a single match with it but didnt get to use it

[minor mural]

better bullet, smaller mag. It works as an emergency sidearm because presumably they are already fucked up and you just need one more shot

its a proper sidearm, you can't really pistol run with it

[grizzled isle]

@calm sorrel no offence, but this guy gets it

[quartz iron]

oh yeah right, i forgot that damn EU/RU really be carrying the playerbase

[minor mural]

??

[quartz iron]

barely any offers for anything during NA time

[grizzled isle]

Im taking notes from your feedback but im really in pistol mood

[calm sorrel]

glad you found your rat duo

[grizzled isle]

He keeps arguing that pistols are a no go and i should go with literally anything else if i remember right

[kindred grotto]

five seven slaps

[minor mural]

The difference is I simply do not scav run. Ever. I PMC run with poverty kits and extract, because I hate losing XP.

So I have lots of experience with cheap guns even if I can afford better

[grizzled isle]

How expensive is it? @kindred grotto

[minor mural]

it's just how I like the game

[bold kernel]

5-7 is like 50k with ammo and mags

[kindred grotto]

20k?

[grizzled isle]

I see

[kindred grotto]

just the pistol

[grizzled isle]

Thanks

[kindred grotto]

no point using without good ammo tho

[minor mural]

5-7 fires a modern PDW cartridge. It fucks shit up

[calm sorrel]

no doubt im sure you dont have an issue with scavs one tapping you though

[minor mural]

No I don't, but I'm only out 50k and just get back in raid

[proper pond]

is ap sx a ammo?

[bold kernel]

for mp7

[proper pond]

yes

[calm sorrel]

when you have 30 plus mill roubles dont really matter to you

[minor mural]

To be frank, I don't have the time to put into a video game to ever see that number

[grizzled isle]

Now hyphothetical question, you have to face tagilla with a pistol (excluding 5-7, lets say 1911, M9A3 or Rhino), where should one shoot

[calm sorrel]

it doesnt take that long honestly dude

[bold kernel]

you dont need time if you just run lighthouse

[calm sorrel]

legs

[grizzled isle]

Cheers

[minor mural]

You're dead

[calm sorrel]

fact

[bold kernel]

another scav on reserve

[minor mural]

The only chance you have is you have an APS or Glock 18 and full auto the legs with hollows points

[bold kernel]

depends on the ammo, for example a shrimp with AP id aim for the faceshield, if its a 1911 or usp with like rip rounds id aim for stomach (if he has the t6)

[grizzled isle]

Also does tagilla switch to sledge or rifle randomly or is there a pattern, i noticed he switched to rifle the moment i started running away

[calm sorrel]

think its situational

[minor mural]

Still doesn't sound fun. I only can seriously raid from 9 PM to 11:30 PM each night

I fund my PMC by crafting in my hideout during the workday

[grizzled isle]

I see

[bold kernel]

you can make like 500k in 7 minutes on lighthouse

so do like 2 of those and your set for the night

[minor mural]

I can 500k in 7 minutes on interchange or reserve. Irrelevant

[grizzled isle]

Well thanks for the tips

[bold kernel]

well then i dont see your issue

[calm sorrel]

then you should understand it doesnt take much to see 30 mill

[minor mural]

I don't have an issue

[grizzled isle]

Would you beluebe if i told you that i killed tagilla with slug toz sniper?

[minor mural]

Most I've ever had is 4 million roubles and a stash full of meta AKMs

but that was last year when money was extremely easy

[calm sorrel]

some could argue its easier now

[bold kernel]

yeah it really doesnt take much, i burn through hella cash though so i usually sit around 5/6 mil, if i save up and only run budget though i would fs be around there

[viscid kraken]

my first wipe with 30m, money is very easy to make

[calm sorrel]

learn to adapt

[cold fog]

is resort w222 any good, or should I sell the key?
