https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/331721616612392960/982369067014946846/unknown.png

why is his name purple?

[sleek briar]

He's mr worldwide

[celest cove]

@warped rapids

Purple name in Tarkov
Players with a purple nametag are so-called “emissaries”. This name could hardly be more apt as they are encouraged to spread Escape From Tarkov in their region and to take care of the surrounding community

[warped rapids]

[celest cove]

genshin

[primal yacht]

How do I overcome gear fear

[ornate owl]

just take out good guns

[primal yacht]

I like ur pfp and ty I will try

Should I use meta guns or wait with that and use semi meta instead

[gilded fulcrum]

this late in wipe prolly should use meta

[primal yacht]

Like top of the line meta m4s and akms

[ornate owl]

thanks

[ornate owl]

if you can afford it yeah but if not just do the best you can

[gilded fulcrum]

depends, dont break the bank if thats all you have...

[ornate owl]

is this your first wipe?

[primal yacht]

My ingame name is 1stWipwBeKind so ye

[ornate owl]

lol alr

then just bring something decent

you dont need the best gun possible

[primal yacht]

An Rfb perhaps

[ornate owl]

if you can get good ammo yea

this is the best fucking barter in the game

[primal yacht]

Ooooh wow is it better than the Mp-155 ultima bc I heard that beast is supposed to be amazing

[ornate owl]

nah the gun is shit but the sight is 50k

and you sell the gun back to mechanic for like 30k

free money

[primal yacht]

wow are those sights expensive can’t u just get them from pk lvl2

Mhm okay

I only have pk prapor and the rapist at lvl2 tho so who should I grind

[jagged laurel]

We getting blown up

This gonna be fun

[mint light]

[ornate owl]

[mint light]

lol

[ornate owl]

different holo

[mint light]

u dont buy the 2

[ornate owl]

[mint light]

like a normal human

because the 2 is ugly

or buy tan holo

no reason to buy the two when the one is so cheap

[warm jetty]

[mint light]

yeah

[primal yacht]

Ye

[mint light]

[primal yacht]

Lavatory lvl2

[primal yacht]

[celest cove]

itll help more than u think

[cobalt sluice]

Is this your second wipe or smt wtf

[primal yacht]

i, poor u know

[primal yacht]

1st

[cobalt sluice]

I got injector and docs at level 30+

[celest cove]

welcome to the game

[cobalt sluice]

What???

[celest cove]

theres a lot of harsh people on here so that kit will be hated by like everyone

[cobalt sluice]

Rfb is a great gun

Good setup

[primal yacht]

why

[obsidian zodiac]

buy a rfb spacer and some sort of muzzle brake for her too

[celest cove]

because everyone here is 40 year olds with periods constantly

[primal yacht]

idk tbh i avoid arguments

[primal yacht]

which one do u reccomend

[kindred grotto]

I mean for a beginner its a good kit

[primal yacht]

ye im lvl 15

[kindred grotto]

Id invest in sj6 and zaugusting for injectors

[cobalt sluice]

I used to run naked shotgun with a big bag at level 25 💀

[kindred grotto]

chad

[primal yacht]

mhm okay

[obsidian zodiac]

depends on how much you want to spend, for like maybe 60k you can get the daniel defense muzzle & supressor but theres cheaper options and more expensive ones but it depends on the budget

[primal yacht]

i might take the big boys for a spin

[celest cove]

i respect that sniper

[kindred grotto]

If you have bp for that akm take it out

[primal yacht]

will keep it for gunsmith

[celest cove]

do u have markjed key

[primal yacht]

is 7.62 bp good ?

[primal yacht]

which one

[celest cove]

BP shreds through even tier 4 armors

its good

dorms marked

[prime comet]

Have you completed the gunsmith that uses the rsass?

[kindred grotto]

most meta ammo ing

[celest cove]

^

[primal yacht]

nope

[prime comet]

Then don’t use it

Do gunsmith with it my dude

[primal yacht]

oki doki

[celest cove]

check out the database for tarkov app nisse its got ammo stats

[prime comet]

Trust me, you won’t find another rsass for so long

[celest cove]

or theres a website

but i forget which website

[prime comet]

I haven’t found one in raid for like 15 levels

[celest cove]

really?

[obsidian zodiac]

eft monster has a good ammo chart

[celest cove]

hit up marked room geller on dorms

it spawns rsasss pretty often for me

[prime comet]

Yeah lemme just barter with my rivals armband

[celest cove]

touche

[primal yacht]

i have found 3 this wipe and i have been playing for a month i think

[prime comet]

Big sadge

[kindred grotto]

Id give you one if i could lol

[celest cove]

bros a chad at level 15 wtf is this

[prime comet]

Dorms marked isn’t even as good as it used to be

[celest cove]

its definitely not, but rsass's galour there lol

[primal yacht]

god tier luck u know

[obsidian zodiac]

rip the days of going in and getting a weapons case

[celest cove]

good positioning**

[prime comet]

Mine was always sa58 or g20

[celest cove]

i just want holodiliniks back man

[prime comet]

When I had one

[primal yacht]

mhm i have good gaming chair

[kindred grotto]

Wait did we play? night time customs and lab lol

[prime comet]

Yeah we did

I try and play with most people eu lmao

Wait that makes me sound like a slut

I take that back

[kindred grotto]

yes baby

ur a slut 😍

[prime comet]

[primal yacht]

lol

[prime comet]

I’ve been buying labs cards in reset today

Ready to lose more loot to the void

[primal yacht]

should i buy a better helmet maybe idk about lvl1 althoug im new

[prime comet]

It depends what your options are

[kindred grotto]

same lmao

[prime comet]

Minimum you should use is level 3 for helmets

[kindred grotto]

labs tmrw

[prime comet]

But this late in the wipe, level 4 will barely save you most of the time

Yeah I’d be down tomorrow

I’ll have my first thicc case by then too

[kindred grotto]

ez thicc hmu bro

Id play rn but im too drunk for this lmao

[prime comet]

I would but it’s midnight

[primal yacht]

i had an airframe before shoulf i get one now ?

[prime comet]

And I’m chilling

Airframes are top tier

[primal yacht]

aha maybe a 2002 then

[kindred grotto]

Its 2 am for me xD

[primal yacht]

1 am for me

[prime comet]

No that was genuine

They are hella good helmets

[primal yacht]

i had one with like armor on it aswell u kno

[prime comet]

Airframe with chops and multi hit face shield is good as fuck

And the plate yesh

[kindred grotto]

Id only use a airframe if you can mod it tbh

[prime comet]

I don’t use my bastions unless the plates drop to like 120k

[kindred grotto]

300k for bastion plate jesus

[prime comet]

That’s what I mean

They’re so expensive right now it’s gross

[kindred grotto]

unreal tbf

[primal yacht]

is m61 good for the rfb or should i get m62/80

[kindred grotto]

Id use m80 tbf

[prime comet]

M61 is good

M80 is worse

[kindred grotto]

m61 is better than both

but youre using a rfb

[prime comet]

But I use m80 with the rfb personally

[peak tusk]

starting this game is the most stressed I've ever been in a game

[kindred grotto]

Id use m61 in like RSASS or something

[peak tusk]

is this normal?

[prime comet]

Yes

[kindred grotto]

yes

[prime comet]

Tarkov induced heavy stress upon everyone

[viscid kraken]

indeed, i still think to this day tarkov is a horror game

[primal yacht]

im always stressed about this game tbh when i play it i just have anxiety but i cant stop lol

[prime comet]

See I only stress out when I play with people

[peak tusk]

god damn

[prime comet]

It’s dumb but I prefer just playing as a solo/duo

[kindred grotto]

You get used to it tbh

[primal yacht]

how long does it take

[prime comet]

So I’ve also been buying ap ammo on reset

I have enough for 3 labs runs with the ump

[kindred grotto]

Just takes the time idk im not there yet lol

[kindred grotto]

bro ump is so good

[prime comet]

It claps

[primal yacht]

mhm alright

[prime comet]

0 recoil

Just a shame about the mag size

[kindred grotto]

who cares

it 2 taps lvl 4 armor to throax

[kindred grotto]

https://medal.tv/games/escape-from-tarkov/clips/n2dqljHd-zGHX/d1337z1wDrIc?invite=cr-MSw4YkEsMjI5MjAxODMs

2 kills with one clip

Ik its a mediocre clip but that ap

is so good

[misty ginkgo]

You didn’t even get to feel AP there.

You hit them in the head

They didn’t have faceshield

[kindred grotto]

Neither of those shots were hs btw

besides ap goes trough lvl 3 faceshields

[misty ginkgo]

What armor did they have?

[kindred grotto]

lvl 4

usec and something

i dont remember tbh

[misty ginkgo]

Lvl 4

Nearly any ammo can go through that

[kindred grotto]

???

Most people run lvl 4

or lvl 5

[fossil tiger]

Im lvl 20 rn, how long until I can buy BP?

[kindred grotto]

punisher part 5

[fossil tiger]

Okay, but how far away is that from where im at rn?

[fossil tiger]

thanks

[unkempt hawk]

what is trhe most worth food to get?

soly for eating

[minor mural]

If you need to eat in raid (you camping camper you), energy drinks are common. Pineapple juice is good, or you could do something like emergency water ration and peas

[kindred grotto]

milk on top tbh

[minor mural]

Two energy drinks is more than one milk

[mint light]

milk is goated

[viscid kraken]

whoever eats sprats followed by milk should get stomach gas that reveals their position

[mint light]

i know that milk is watery asf

[hazy veldt]

If I know it'll be a long raid, I'll bring sprats and kvass.

but that's because I stockpiled a bunch of both when they were relatively cheap.

[lofty hull]

I'm getting the game either later this month or in July, I have a few questions.
What is a cost effective way to protect yourself and even kill/hunt PMC's or SCAVS?
What are meta guns or tips for gun handling? (all times of wipe or early wipe if possible)
What guns are worth getting early into the wipe?

If you have any more important tips, let me know.

[mint light]

THIS IS MY TIME FR

cost effective way at the level one is sks or vepr km with ps ammo

at level 15 u can use the rfb with m80

[dawn geyser]

1. Tier4 for PVP minimum, Tier 2 for Scavs
2. Pull down on first couple shots, pull back up (Your PMC is attempting to control recoil)
   | Tap fire > Burst

Max has you with the guns

[mint light]

meta guns currently are mutant, 7.62x51 mdr, and in my opinion the akm but the top two are undisputed

m4 is good but literally everyone hates it

[mint light]

the armor tip changes based on if we have wiped or not

and at a low level ur going to have tier 2 for a while 👍

[stiff flint]

sherpa killed me in labs smh hes supposed to be helping me

[mint light]

frfr

[stiff flint]

@empty mantle how u gon do me like that man

[mint light]

also a lot of people think the mjolnir is meta but i disagree

[lofty hull]

is the TOZ any good? it's like 8K roubles.

[mint light]

its argubly one of the worst guns in the game

[lofty hull]

does it have a use

[mint light]

the sks is like 23k if i recall correctly

[mint light]

meme

[lofty hull]

what if i'm cracked with shotguns

[mint light]

shotguns in this game are extremely mediocre

[strong barn]

no you

[mint light]

and the toz by defualt has a 2 round magazine and is bolt

[lofty hull]

is being a rat or chad better?

[mint light]

play however u want

i have literally never said that

[lofty hull]

i think im gonna be a mix of the two

[mint light]

but yeah just do whatever u want in reality

i dont rat because its boring

sit somewhere for 20 minutes and fucking die lol

[lofty hull]

Not camping but not actively going out of my way for pvp either

[mint light]

yeah thats how most people play their first wipe

[lofty hull]

should we continue this in DM's so we dont flood the chat?

[mint light]

it should be fine here unless u want to switch

u also get others opinions

[lofty hull]

alright then

[bold kernel]

No I’m eavesdropping on the rat communications

[remote kettle]

not an issue unless youre actually spamming, which you arent so dw

[lofty hull]

are armor and rig better than armored rig?

[bold kernel]

Most players fall somewhere in the middle but closer to a rat, play however you want and whatever let’s you enjoy the game.

[mint light]

not particularly

what really matters is armor material and tier

[bold kernel]

It’s all the same, look at the tier of armour and what areas it covers when comparing them. They’re the same except if you run armour and rig you have two pieces of gear

[remote kettle]

depends. its easier to swap from armor and rig if you find a better armor, but if you have an armored rig youd need to find a rig and armor to replace, but an armored rig is usually lighter and cheaper

[lofty hull]

dont forget durability

[mint light]

material is more important

durability is there yeah

[bold kernel]

You should always use full/almost full armour anyways

[mint light]

yeah

[lofty hull]

what weapons do SCAVs mainly use?

[remote kettle]

aks, shotguns, adars, pistols you name it

[mint light]

broken mediocre weapons with low tier ammo

well sometimes u get stomped by some m61 scav lol

[lofty hull]

also, what is the general percentage of scav guns being worth it?

[remote kettle]

no

[mint light]

none

dont bother with using scav guns

[lofty hull]

okay

so

[remote kettle]

they are doodoo, the dura makes them have shit accuracy and they are usually very lacking with mods

[exotic ruin]

sup guys, I loaded into woods to try and get jaegers note but i accidently loaded in at 02:34 and don't know where i'm at. can anyone guide me to outskirts or guide in me any type of way?

[lofty hull]

is creating weapons out of parts or just strait up buying a weapon more cost effective/better?

[remote kettle]

crafting weapons is very limited

you can only craft 3 or 4

so buy

[mint light]

crafting weapons exists for very few guns

[remote kettle]

or get off better ai/players

[bold kernel]

Eventually you’re going to buy a brand new gun and strip all the base parts off to put new parts in.

Never buy the base parts separately, it’s a huge waste of time

[mint light]

if u want free guns you could kill raiders/rogues/scav bosses

[lofty hull]

i mean buying parts off of flea market/vendors and creating a weapon with those parts

[mint light]

just buy the gun whole

[bold kernel]

Don’t. It’s not worth it read my above message

[lofty hull]

it isnt if you're poor sometimes

[remote kettle]

youd still need to buy the base gun

[lofty hull]

sometimes buying the parts and making the weapon is more cost effective

[mint light]

still need the reciever

[bold kernel]

Even if you’re poor it’s not worth it

[remote kettle]

thats not really how it works

[mint light]

and people dont usually just put the receiver on flea

[exotic ruin]

if possible i could stream and someone could just let me know where im at

[bold kernel]

The gun chassis is like 90% of the base gun price and if you buy all the parts separately you waste like ten minutes to MAYBE save a fee hundred roubles

[bold kernel]

Send a screenshot I can try. I’m not at my pc tho

[lofty hull]

what does ergonomics do?

[mint light]

allows u to hold your weapon longer while aiming and allows faster aiming

and some more stuff

[remote kettle]

ads speed and how long you can stay ADS without getting extreme sway

[mint light]

i cant see anythinng wooo

[exotic ruin]

lol its my front and right

[mint light]

ur literally dead fr

[bold kernel]

Very dark. Okay basically with woods you need to find the water

[mint light]

find any landmark

just wander till u find something that isnt tree

[exotic ruin]

was thinking i was at mountain stash

[bold kernel]

Find the sawmill area in the middle south of the map and put the water on your left shoulder and follow it around the shore

That will take you to outskirts

[mint light]

mountain stash is a giant ass rock

[lofty hull]

are NATO/USEC weapons better or russian/BEAR weapons better?

[mint light]

u can see it from most places in the map

[exotic ruin]

alright

[mint light]

uh at this point i would say nato weapons

[remote kettle]

faction doesnt matter for what guns you get

[mint light]

but starting gear dosent matter

[lofty hull]

(generally)

[exotic ruin]

ok i found something useful

[remote kettle]

russian for ARs, nato for most others

[mint light]

does the mutant count as a nato gun

[exotic ruin]

good news is that thats somewhere bad news i got shot at

[remote kettle]

ye

[mint light]

ok nato guns are better

real

[bold kernel]

NATO and Russian do not relate to bear and usec I doesn’t matter.

Generally nato guns are more modable and Russian guns are better at a base level but at the same time you should never use base gun

[remote kettle]

mutant is technically more AR-15 than AK

[mint light]

7.62 nato is also one of the best calibers in the game

[lofty hull]

there's the M4 that with the right upgrades in near recoilss for AR's

[bold kernel]

Don’t worry about the gun types as much as the ammo types

[mint light]

same with 7.62 soviet

yeah it gets low low

[remote kettle]

thats probably an old clip, recoil is high asf, especially for 5.56 this wipe

[bold kernel]

M4s are notoriously bad for recoil this wipe

[remote kettle]

also 5.56 is horrid

[lofty hull]

was insanely good before

[mint light]

if u mod them they are not bad

[bold kernel]

Yes I know, this wipe though they’re bad

[mint light]

this is from this wipe

[exotic ruin]

rock?

[mint light]

ROCK

[viscid kraken]

can i drop non FIR moonshine in raid for someone?

[lofty hull]

(nice mosin)

[remote kettle]

no

[mint light]

gun is hot cheeks but the ammo aint bad

[bold kernel]

My guys going to go M.I.A :(

[bold kernel]

Nevermind!

[mint light]

LIMBER

HE MADE IT

[bold kernel]

We’re saved

[mint light]

HE IS AT SAWMILL

[bold kernel]

He made it

[exotic ruin]

THIS IS MILL

NO WAY

[mint light]

OK OK

[exotic ruin]

MAN

UM

[mint light]

GO STRAIGHT

[bold kernel]

Okay yeah so on the other side find the water and go around it to the right

[mint light]

TOWARDS THE BEECH

BEACH

[exotic ruin]

IF I GO IN VC CAN YALL GUIDE ME TO IT

[lofty hull]

Does the choice between BEAR or USEC matter?

[mint light]

NO

[exotic ruin]

I AM SCARED I GOT 12 MINS AND COUNTING

[mint light]

Usec are better as of right now

[lofty hull]

GOOD LUCK

[exotic ruin]

OK STRAIGHT TOWARDS THE BEACH

GOT IT

WHAT AFTER

[mint light]

STRAIGHT AND FIND THE BEACH

THEN GO TO THE RIGHT

[exotic ruin]

RIGHT RIGHT

[bold kernel]

Cosmetic choices mainly. AI rouges shoot bears and not usecs. If you have a bear in your squad you get treated as a bear though so it’s almost useless

[mint light]

usec voicelines are HILARIOUS

[bold kernel]

I need to find out how to yell CHEESE like willerz

[lofty hull]

If i actually knew russian i would choose BEAR

but

USEC it is

[mint light]

FUCK

[remote kettle]

bear drip > usec drip

[mint light]

puffer jacket is marginally better than anything

[mint light]

scavs around here?

[exotic ruin]

i found that

[bold kernel]

NO! FUCK OFF!!! Is my favourite

[lofty hull]

HE IS ALIVE

[remote kettle]

drip

[exotic ruin]

OK WHEE TOO

LEFT OR RIGHT

ULTIMATE QUESTION

[mint light]

go that way

[exotic ruin]

BASED ON THAT

[mint light]

follow the beeach

[bold kernel]

Iron sight is the best drip you cannot change my mind

[mint light]

FOLLOW THE BEACH THAT WAY

[exotic ruin]

OKOK

[mint light]

and st that point

keep going straight till u see blue truck

and ur done

but watch out for warning signs

[exotic ruin]

.

[mint light]

they tell u of landmines

[exotic ruin]

i am sorry to inform those who have helped me..

[lofty hull]

what point in the wipe are we at currently?

[mint light]

very late iirc

[exotic ruin]

I WILL GO BACK IN

[mint light]

NO

PLAYERSCAV

[exotic ruin]

AND GET VENGEANCE

[mint light]

FUCK YOU PLAYER SCAV FR

[exotic ruin]

frfr

[bold kernel]

Rip

[mint light]

I HATE PLAYER SCAVS

[bold kernel]

Now you know the map a little better atleast

[exotic ruin]

That's true

thanks guys :)

[bold kernel]

Np good luck on your next raid

Hopefully you can see this time :p

[exotic ruin]

i insured my items so if the player scab doesn't take it I should hve it back right

[bold kernel]

Yeah I highly doubt he’s taking that stuff

Woods is full of good lewts

[mint light]

doubt he wants it

[lofty hull]

good luck on your next raid

[exotic ruin]

I'm going back into woods boys!

[mint light]

TANDAH ARE U NA?

[exotic ruin]

yessir

[mint light]

esex?

[exotic ruin]

LOL

ofc

[viscid kraken]

what's the blue scav backpack called?

[primal yacht]

What are some good sights too use on an rfb 40-60k budget

[primal yacht]

Lf31 I think

[mint light]

lk31

[viscid kraken]

valday, eotech hybrid, eotech xps, even a just a deltapoint is good

[mint light]

baseball bag is what i call it

tac30

valday

[bold kernel]

Hammer with a deltapoint is nice

You can run an Elcan if you want budget

[primal yacht]

[viscid kraken]

[primal yacht]

[mint light]

only good one is vudu

razor not worth price and tac 30 is the budget option

[white marsh]

how do i know what to sell and what to not sell

[viscid kraken]

tarkov-market.com
it'll tell you if you need any item later for a quest

[white marsh]

thank you so much

[viscid kraken]

you can also have a quick look at your hideout and see what items you need and keep those

[icy fable]

Opachkiiiii

[lost brook]

Looking for someone to help me out with some tasks if possible.While observing me and giving advice.

[jagged night]

What bosses can drop a labs card

[icy fable]

according to wiki, all of them have a chance to drop access card

[viscid kraken]

how do you buy barters such as rb-st key? like are you supposed to get lucky with a dorms marked spawn and decide to trade for it?

[icy fable]

the rb-st key often also appears for money, people just do anything they can to jack the price up because they know it's a quest key

well... used to appear, all trades are barter trades atm

you can also just find someone nice who opens it for you

[serene reef]

This late in wipe you can prob just get someone to open it for you. Lots of ppl have this key already ^^^^

[nocturne lintel]

man arena sounds so dope

[dawn geyser]

Dude.

I hope you can play vs your friends

LOL.

[nocturne lintel]

[icy fable]

Problem? Nikita provides solution

[nocturne lintel]

its time to d-d-d-d- dduuuueeeeeelll

[icy fable]

oh lord you're right... "1v1 me" will become a thing in tarkov

[dawn geyser]

If you can custom match

It'll be wonderful

[icy fable]

i'm finally going on lighthouse...

only took me 3 months and 33 levels to get here

initially my motivation were the 10+ quests I accumulated

but I fear i'm starting to enjoy this map

[dry belfry]

All the kids 6 hours ago that thought the video was going to be about a wipe

[viscid kraken]

i have accumulated the same amount of quests, but the amount of hills and rocks on that map just keep me away

[bold kernel]

just spawned as scav with a dorm 110 key, any good?

[tepid garnet]

Yea not bad.

Not great. But it’s a useful key

[rain wing]

honestly the only dorms keys you should take are the safe room keys

[potent pilot]

hey

[rain wing]

110 is a safe room key I believe

[potent pilot]

anyone wanna help me out on some runs on customs

[rain wing]

#pvp-lfg

[minor mural]

114, 110, 105, 104 (one of 05 or 04 isnt) are the three safes in 2 story

[rain wing]

3 in 2 story 2 in 3 story

[minor mural]

I usually hit 104 out of habit anyway

[mint light]

guard desk is the meta fr

[junior glen]

How does exp work in a group?

[mint light]

?

[dawn geyser]

Zip.

[mint light]

u get xp individually for what YOU do

[junior glen]

thanks

[mint light]

kwon what does that mean

[dawn geyser]

xD

[mint light]

that makes it sound like u cant get xp in a group

[dawn geyser]

Huh

I guess it could be taken that way huh

Touche

[sharp prairie]

anyone need help with their tasks or just starting the game?

[viscid kraken]

is there an easy way to grind peacekeeper's sniping skill or do I have to forget other weapons exist except snipers?

[unkempt hawk]

IS THIS GOOD

or do i sell it

and how much do i sell this for

on the flea

there is none listed

[tulip siren]

you can check https://tarkov-market.com/

$215k its a good room

you could try higher

[unkempt hawk]

300k

[tulip siren]

the AK is good, 100 durability

[unkempt hawk]

it insta sold

for 300k

worth using?

[tulip siren]

if you're running reserve all the time

and are good enough to get out

[unkempt hawk]

crazy raid

2 hex

those guns

400 bp

300k key

customs is nuts

[icy fable]

it's a key that's necessary for a quest too...

[viscid kraken]

can't believe i missed a rb-st key

[unkempt hawk]

is this good?

[tulip siren]

just use the guns if theyre close too 100

[unkempt hawk]

but is that build good?

[velvet tendon]

anyone wanna duo or trio im level 4 lol

[stiff fractal]

Not meta but not bad

[unkempt hawk]

ok bet thanks

[stiff fractal]

No problem. Just use decent ammo and itll work

[mint light]

forgrip?

[hidden cipher]

I can help you make some money if thats what ur after

[velvet tendon]

i just want to figure out how to play the game and get some exp before next wipe

[viscid kraken]

what's so good about ks-23?

[unkempt hawk]

is this nice?

[mint light]

no 💀

[mint light]

one hits to the legs

[hardy spade]

ik this is probably well known but if u dome the rogue in the far left guard tower (the one on shipping crates) u can loot em n haul ass to grotto without taking many if any shots. ezpz kits from scav runs :)

u barely outrun the gun and nade launcher shots

[potent crater]

any date for arena?

[weary crown]

ayo can someone give me some details on this arena mode? will you take in your customo loadout, or wil lthe game just give you a random one

[mint light]

closed beta in autumn

[weary crown]

CLOSED BETA IN A BETA

LOOOL

imagine

[raven schooner]

hi my purchase did not go through for the game will i have to buy the game again to sort this issue?

[weary crown]

waiting for arena for years just to get a beta

WITHIN THE BETA

[potent crater]

prolly not

[weary crown]

OH MY GOD ITS OIKE INCEPTION

WILL THERE BE A BETA

WITHIN A BETA

WITHIN A BBETA

[raven schooner]

i got throught the purchase pretty well other than the 2 dollar verification thing and then thats where all the issues started

has anyone else had issues with that?

[mint light]

#community-support is extremely helpful for issues like this. never seen an issue not resolved

[shut pasture]

anyone looking to raid

im level 8 and wanting to learn new maps besides shoreline and want to get a labs card as well

[lost brook]

looking for some GIGA-Chad to take me under their wing.Wouldlike to learn the game

[prime comet]

It’s a standalone game

Arena is going to be its own game, which EOD users get for free

[mint light]

bruh why is geller blue now

two maxes are blue but og max aint

fr

[prime comet]

You don’t even have clan leader role

Wdym

[mint light]

it was taken from me

[bold kernel]

i uh, need help with stash organization

[prime comet]

I’m not at my pc unfortunately

[pastel narwhal]

How do any of the night vision straps actually work

they seem like a replacement for the helmet and I'm not going in without a helmet lol

[bold kernel]

So there’s the straps you’re talking about that do restrict you from wearing helmets. There’s a bunch of helmets that have a mounting surface for the NVGs

[weary crown]

@prime cometwait i dont get that, its a stand alone but ye its going to contain all the guns and armor, healing items from tarkov right?

will you be able to take in your own custom loadout? i dont know if someone answered that earlier,

[dawn geyser]

"The game will feature various PvP and PvE game modes, ratings, weapon and gear unlocks and unique features for owners of the main Escape from Tarkov game, like the ability to play as your main profile character."

I can only assume it's stuff from main game

[weary crown]

also will you automatically be put into a team? i thought it was sort of a free for all type thing

[dawn geyser]

Sorry forgot quotes

Probably like two characters you can choose from

[prime comet]

We don’t have all the details yet because we had a 1 minute video tease yesterday

[mint light]

fr

[prime comet]

So In good time everyone will know more

[dawn geyser]

Yo once Arena comes out

[weary crown]

dude it looks sick honestly, throw in a ranked mode in there and im bought

[dawn geyser]

1v1 me

You beat me you get op

[prime comet]

You know what one of the worst things in the world is

A sick mother

[dawn geyser]

=\

[prime comet]

Because they don’t shut the fuck up

[dawn geyser]

oh.

[prime comet]

It’s not even a joke either

[dawn geyser]

Welp! That means she's not that sick

That's good

[prime comet]

Just so dramatic over a cold

Everyone has to know

[mint light]

i need blue role now fr

ive been very helpful!!

people are dming me for help fr

im so cool

[prime comet]

Don’t ask because he won’t give you it if you do

Alespic is the guy

[mint light]

kwon is my sugar daddy

fr

[pastel narwhal]

weird seems absolutely useless

[prime comet]

Helmets are useless most of the time now anyway

[pastel narwhal]

I do know that you can mount NVGs on helmets but I just assumed the NVG straps would be used for helmets that don't have those interfaces

[pastel narwhal]

what

I get a contusion as opposed to seeing the main menu again like half the time lol

[bold kernel]

Personal issue

[prime comet]

Most ammo this late in the wipe pens tier 4

[bold kernel]

Helmets are worn for the ricochet chance

[pastel narwhal]

true but I don't get surprise brained by a scav and like the guy above me said ricochet chance

[prime comet]

Mine never ricochet unless I’m using the slaap plate or the bastion plate

And either of them are too expensive to warrant running ever raid

[bold kernel]

helmets are almost subjective in tarkov lol, some people wear them every raid and others never wear them. I personally ricochet a bullet maybe 1/10 times and the rest of the time i get head/eyes

but thats because they shoot my face and not my helmet

[pastel narwhal]

idk what maps you're playing on lol sure maybe half the time it pens for me

that's worth 20k-60k imo

[bold kernel]

Now i see where you're coming from, thats why it so subjective

would you rather have 600k or a 50/50 chance you get saved in your raids

[frigid tide]

can anyone help me improve, i'm new and completely clueless and not having much luck running around with my knife lmao

[prime comet]

I’m mostly a customs/lighthouse enjoyer

[prime comet]

It’s not 50/50 if you claim to be saved by the helmet every 1/10 raids

That’s some busted ass maths my dude

[bold kernel]

its 50/50 because it either saves me or it doesnt

50% chance i live 50% chance i die

simple math

[pastel narwhal]

I don't think that's how math works

if it's 1/10 then it's 10% chance of living right

[bold kernel]

i know, im kidding i was referencing this

[pastel narwhal]

oh ok

yeah that's what I thought initially lol

[prime comet]

And then if it’s 50% chance of living and dying in a 1/10 scenario it’s only 0.05% chance

I’ll keep my rubles and buy pretty drip instead

[bold kernel]

Geller seek help

[prime comet]

I’m too tired ok

Dog kept me up all night because she wanted to go play with the hedgehog she found

[bold kernel]

"play"

[pastel narwhal]

maybe my experience is crazy different but helmets in my experience save me most of the time from unexpected shots

[bold kernel]

"play"/

[pastel narwhal]

face shots no

[prime comet]

Yeah she would’ve murdered him

[shut pasture]

New to the land of Tarkov // Currently level 8 // Looking for someone willing to play with a new player and willing to teach me the ropes // Willing to learn ANY MAP //

[bold kernel]

from my experience I hardly ever get shot from unexpected places so when I do get shot its from someone im shooting

i think it comes down to different playstyles to some extent

[pastel narwhal]

also most likely inexperience, I'm not very good and one of my main gripes is my inability to see people in honestly pretty obvious places

[tropic cedar]

try playing with your settings and postfx

helps a bit

[spiral flicker]

Geller

Gamin today

And I don't wanna hear no

[crude crow]

im just mad confused on how this game even works and i try to watch videos on everything but not finding much help lol

[spiral flicker]

Take shit from hideout, go in raid, kill ppl, go out

Ez

[bold kernel]

ask any specific questions you have, I'll answer them

[spiral flicker]

Is sniper toz with 20x brech load meta?

[robust ocean]

Same (sorry for just popping here)

[pastel narwhal]

you're good lol

[pastel narwhal]

I'll also help with what limited advice I can give lol

[crude crow]

i just dont even get the premise of the whole game like i load in try to find loot then someone shoots me in the face lol

[bold kernel]

thats literally tarkov

[crude crow]

i dont even get what im looking for

[bold kernel]

focus on your quests

[hardy spade]

quest items, get an idea of things that sell for good money, if you’re just starting literally anything is money so dont be afraid to pick random stuff up. i still pick stuff up without realizing id need it for barters or quests later on

[stiff fractal]

Another day of refreshing for troy qars 4.2 inch rail

[mint light]

why bother

[stiff fractal]

So i can pay 100k for a 2k rail because i dont have lvl 4 mech

[mint light]

use the vs combo

fr

[stiff fractal]

Gonna have to

[mint light]

oh boy one more recoil!

[stiff fractal]

Cant hit anything without my troy flr smh

[spiral flicker]

Yo u running 7.62 ?

[stiff fractal]

Nah

Making another ak-101

[mint light]

bruh

[stiff fractal]

Bro

[spiral flicker]

101

Just

Just

Run ak-74n

[stiff fractal]

Eh. I like the 101. Been having fun with it. Got 10 mil im not using so just building a bunch of different guns

[spiral flicker]

10 mil pog

Wait

[stiff fractal]

Its not an impressive amount but its my first wipe so im trying out a bunch of guns to see what i like

[spiral flicker]

101 is 5.56?

[stiff fractal]

Yes

[spiral flicker]

Lmao

I thought it's the 5.45 one lol

Nvm

[stiff fractal]

Nah lol 101 is 556

[mint light]

every other good 5.56 dosent exist

use shitty ak conversion like a boss

[amber wave]

So let’s say theoretically I’m stuck out on pier boat island, and there’s a 3 man watching the bridge, and pier boat is gone, how exactly do I survive this?

[mint light]

kill them

[amber wave]

I see

I have a red dot saiga

[stiff fractal]

rate my vpo

[amber wave]

They have raid bags and at least one has an altyn

[mint light]

god i hate the vpo

[stiff fractal]

You are just a hateful person its ok

[mint light]

its kinda mediocre!!

[amber wave]

Is that all I’ve got?

[mint light]

kill them or painmed and run

take ur pick

[amber wave]

Damn

[stiff fractal]

Its not meta lol. But i just never built one so i made this for whatever

[mint light]

i dont think the vpo gets under 120 recoil lol

[stiff fractal]

If it does not by much lol. But its semi auto and i got some good ammo for it

[mint light]

apm

is the only usable ammo

and its like slightly better than m80

the recoil just isnt cool

[stiff fractal]

Yeah im using the ap. Just gonna run woods with it. Worst case scenario i die but it’s whatever honestly

61 ergo, good ammo, and a vudu should do fine

[hybrid edge]

anyone wanna run some raids im still sorta new?

[spiral flicker]

If your stuff insured?

[amber wave]

Someone scav into shoreline and save me

No it’s not

[spiral flicker]

That's f

Run and pray ig

[stiff fractal]

Gl. Death is inevitable

[amber wave]

They’re just watching me with silenced snipers

Fuck it, I either do or don’t die

[spiral flicker]

Yea, that island is death sentence

[stiff fractal]

Yeah unfortunate.

[amber wave]

Yep died

Didn’t even make it out the gate

[spiral flicker]

[stiff fractal]

Could have tried to voip

But not much else

[amber wave]

Too far away

[spiral flicker]

Well

I was doing 1 task there

Idk which

[amber wave]

I unloaded both my ap drum mags and just put the ammo in my pouch

[spiral flicker]

And I took sniper 20x toz with slugs so I would've kill them

[spiral flicker]

Stonks

20k in ammo saved

[stiff fractal]

Was pinned down similarly on shoreline once. Put my vudu in my pouch and died like a man

Had a boltie and blueberry outfit. Was doing that shoreline task

[amber wave]

I’ve been stuck on punisher 4 the entire wipe

Normally shoreline goes fine and I love the map, but anytime I put the scav vest on I die every raid, that thing is cursed

[reef spoke]

I almost finished SBIH with a set up not far from that last wipe. But even I'm not that persistent.

[spiral flicker]

[spiral flicker]

still have that

also i was using breach load

[spiral flicker]

go buy it fast

it wasnt worth it

lmao

51k fee

rip

someone bought

lmao

[misty ginkgo]

You don’t have Intel 3?

[spiral flicker]

i do

but these little things have insane fee

lmao

[prime comet]

[brittle canyon]

omegalul

[cursive whale]

thats why i dont wear helmets

[karmic axle]

i needed NVG

so

yea

i needed helmet

[cursive whale]

u can use the slock or the other head mount but better use the helmet

which skier quests should i focus on?

[karmic axle]

might as well use helmets

i got so many sitting around

[cursive whale]

if using nvgs u should because the mounts cost around 25k

[karmic axle]

huh

[cursive whale]

u should use helmets for night vision

[primal yacht]

Damn the rfb with m61 kills guys in hexgrids in like 2 shots wth

[upper iron]

ye because it's m61

[primal yacht]

Ig so

[upper iron]

m61 is one of the highest penetrating rounds in the game

[primal yacht]

Really wow

[upper iron]

does 70 dmg and fully pens class 6

[primal yacht]

Thats crazy

[upper iron]

Also a round you can't get easily as a level 15 so don't waste them :p

[bold kernel]

M61 or M80?

[brittle canyon]

61 obv

[bold kernel]

Oh yeah I just read that wrong

[upper iron]

ye 61 and 80 are easily mixed up...

:p

[bold kernel]

this

Read that wrong

[chrome nova]

clever people was buying off 993 rounds the moment they get lvl15 after wipe like every time they saw it, couple wipes ago when it was legal to sell and buy top tier ammo on the flea

now you have to search every scav body with Veper Hunter in hope to find M61 rounds )

[brittle canyon]

just farm glucose or whatever

[bold kernel]

M80 isn't bad so you could just use that

[chrome nova]

Reshala now have shitty ammo in his MDR, this is sux

[chrome nova]

yeah, but we are talking about better ammo, the ones which can get people not only in face, but in lvl5 armor as well

[upper iron]

Imo, they kinda ruined the game by doing all of the ammo/flea changes

Sure it sucked people could mass buy M61+ but man

[bold kernel]

Its good that you can't get good ammo

[upper iron]

Some people love that tho

[bold kernel]

Same with armour

but the massive flea fees

[upper iron]

This is your first wipe or?
