dick
since I didnt get a response on the last one, is anyone able to help out a newer player in learning the ropes?
1v1 me on maneater
just join one of the lfg beginner vcs
^^
right on, Ive not been in this discord long. So I didnt know if that was the appropriate way to go about things didnt want to clog a channel or interrupt anyone mid raid
what will happen if i use it with the wrong ammo type?
Click click
They’ll probably be mid raid, just ask if they wanna run with you when they’re out of raid.
Make sure you’re the same region as them btw, eu and NA usually can’t play together
No bullet is gonna come out?
evolved question
lame i just thought it might be bad for the gun but still shoot
are u familiar with how guns work
In real life it would probably explode
Probably not american
lol
gun blows up in your face and you die
or it just doesnt fit
pop in your face like a samsung
did you just Doja this guy?

I mean diameter of 5.56 and .300 blk is little bit different so it wouldn't fit in chamber

does that mean i could shoot it through an ak
Geller 
.366 and 762x39 fit in the same mags though
Pretty good

go farm exclusively the rooftop ones
So
does your name imply that there are clans or something similar for this game?
Killed 3, went into the warehouse and there were 2 rogues
They roam around warehouses?
Yup
Yes
Basically everyone you see in this chat rn is part of max gang
oh
Lol true
spotify just autoplayed a random song and i thought it was an ad
for 2 entire minutes

thats rad, and good to know
Imagine not having premium 
3x Aesa, 2x sg110 things, 3 mil cables
Dayumn
if i hear one more spanish disney ad i will rip my fucking eyes out
I always used to
And I will until I get m80 so I can use the other vpo
The better one
nah
215 has charm
Hunter
doesn't need modding either
Supp and a sight
Yea
Thats all you put on the hunter too
Iron sight 215 is just disgusting
tfbf i never use the suppressor on the 215
not too bad if you remove the rail
I always suppressor if I can
True
The new 762 gun is meant to be better than mutant
I’ve got one but I’m slowly missing it to make it as good as I can
But it's not xd
Tbh I think 556 will be worth it now
ur delusional
Now the recoil goes even lower
Whot
If you have any sort of good aim, you’ll be fine with it
recoil isnt the issue with 5.56 its people not fucking dying when you shoot them
5.56 still same isn't it?
7 hit count. customs garage near crackhouse, 12.12
Less initial recoil
Yeah trust me, I know
I still think about that one time every time I use 556
Still I like 5.45 more 
the short one is so cheap i want to use it
Actually SAG long with 7n40 OP sniper tbh
Just to make sure will I lose the stuff I come in with if I die in practice mode I know it is obvious but I just want to make sure
no
No
Ok I appreciate that thank you

Sbih tactics fr
How far in task are u
can someone tell me what this is for and is it okay to keep it in my spec ops slot i wont lose it when i die right?
It is useful
You won't lost it on death
It's for quests
"you won't die" I'm very smart
can we still strip the sv98 to only plant the receiver for fishing gear?
As long as the gun is functional it works
so i cant just fully strip?
It can't be red
Rip
Need 114 and bunkhouse
I haven't dome that too xd
They suck

i know how to do it
i just hate the people that play on reserve
i’m just trying to run and do it with a pistol and i beg for my life but still die 😞
Wait
They trying to do bunker quest xd
LH building or wo'a treatment
Lh building
those are rogues
I was looting lh buildings
scavs and rogues spawn
Then got aim bot through a window
that’s why i only scav run lighthouse 💀
Ik lh well but I didn't know what building he means
I’m taking about the expansion that just got added
past the bridge rogues and scavs spawn there
Isnt there goon squad spawn?
I never knew scavs and rouges can spawn there
I was there looting for
Like 15-20 minutes
Walking around freely
Then out of no where
I hear like 10 rushing me
and scavs
Tf
that’s why i don’t pmc lighthouse 💪
Naked sks pso players are the only species that play LH fr
that’s how you get fat loot that’s why
scav raiding is broken rn so i’m abusing the shit outta it
i get in with 35 minutes and only 5 minute queues
worth it when you get 2 meta m4s off rogues
5 minutes queues I wish I had those
it’s luck
I be getting 10
Intel center + 6 scav karma = 5 min cooldown
sometimes it’ll be 30 minutes for lh and others it’ll be 3-7 minutes
The matchmaking tho
the loading is bad sometimes
Horrendous
if you need scav karma just take the car extracts
free +.25 scav karma per extract on every map
Yeah it’s my 3rd wipe
do it for every map and you get +.75 for only spending 15k and some stress
mines dogshit rn 😞
Too frustrating
I accordingly shot and killed a scav today
Who was at a air drop
He looked like a pmc
i hate player scavs that shoot me over an airdrop
it’s not worth losing the scav karma
Well he was also looking at me funny
like death eyes or like come loot this eyes
with who should i finish chemical part 4?
Death for sure
but you get injector case when you finish with therapist tho
check which one each person gives you
i checked already but idk
personal opinion then
worth using an 80 durability mutant?
it just depends which case you want, skier also unlocks a helmet to buy but otherwise its just whatever you want at the time
I could use some help with the early game quests
which ones
anyone willing to help me sort out my stash
im so close to lose all my items and run out of money im having hard time completing tasks pls someone help
send a screenshot and we can makes some notes, or painbrush stuff you can simply sell
but in general: sell stuff you won't use, yes this also applies to weapons, and anything you can buy easily from traders
here, I won't be the only one giving input probably
okay : )
Also hardcore fuck off any scav guns you have 😅
questing is not a good money earner and rarely as safe as simply doing loot runs, I'd say you need to learn a couple of routes to pad your bank account every now and then
actually, when I'm questing, I assume i'm gonna make a loss, on average... because i'll go straight to the objective/to the point and ignore loot
not much sense in spending 20 minutes in raid looting, doing quest and then dying... waste of time and I did neither well
i only looted that dead guy beside the wall in customs and i fell down and died
clip/vid?
nope :\
would've been nice for a bug report
so should i focus on loot runs instead of tasks
tasks gets you levels much quicker
but you need cash for gear
you've got to decide what to do when
need cash? loot run or just scav
learn how to print money using your scavs
i was so fucking happy cuz found 2 salewa kits >:(
how is that
What tasks do u have rn
i mean using scavs to get money
Ofc u can use that but why not loot while u can
wtf is this ?
Keep it
terspist firdt mission modify mp 133
scavs get random gear, not your... therefore anything you bring back is free loot/money
and get some watch from somewhere
yes salewas
keeper for quest later on
U can go woods and go med camp, there is literary everything
Need to find stuff to do the MP 133. GK02 nozzel piece and plasitc cover.
And u can get literary milion from 1 run there
Can get plastic cover with trading dvds or hdds i think
The rest you can buy from the traders
thx
@icy fable
so many mags
its what the standard edition gave me
how about below that stuff?
yeah, you can/should unload them and keep like 2-3
buy them when needed and fill them before raid
those bullets stack to 60 in 1 slot, at this moment 60 bullets, in 2 mags, are taking up 4
ahh okay thanks
all look at top pic
ah that's those, alright
yeah
What does the gold crown next to somrones name mean?
leader
unless you run a tonne of pistols i'd unload those mags as well and yeet the mags to the trash
ok
okay
besides that, there's a trick with weapons
And what about the number that appears at the bottom right when you pull out a gun?
remove mag and the pistol grip from the weapon to make it smaller
a 4x2 weapon turns into 4x1 (+1 for the pistol grip), you save a bunch of space like that
kedr can be folded
it's the range the weapon is zero'd at
depending on level and available gear... i'd get rid of the paca armor
it's basically wet cardboard
won't save you from anything almost
even at level 1, ragman sells a lvl3 armored rig that's better
dont underestimate the paca. it will keep you save from buckshot, 9x18 and 9x19 for a few shots depending on the exact bullet and it will prevent thorax one shot from shit like lps or sometimes even AP-M sometimes because even if shit pens its damage gets reduced slightly usually increasing the amount of bullets you take to die by at least one even if going against beefy bullets
Wet cardboard gang 😍
also it ways and costs almost nothing
I mean, LPS wouldn’t one tap you anyway but I get the point 😅
I didn’t think that’s how armour worked? I thought if it straight ignored the armour the damage done would be that of the max damage of the bullet?😅
damage reduction after penetration will be absolutely minimal if the bullet has way higher pen
there is some reduction but it can be ignored for theorycrafting purposes
like how you ignore friction in kinematics questions
I just straight ignore kinematics questions 
also valid
I has small brain sir, too many big words
Strange though, I always just assumed rounds that perfectly penned the armour would carry their flesh damage thorough and it was only reduced if the armour slightly or fully stopped the round 💭
3 years down the line and still learnin things 😂
you can’t “slightly” stop a round
Probably means blunt dmg
blunt also can be ignored
well in this game you can because you get up to 20% damage reduction even if something pens the armor, amount depends on the differential between armor class and pen value
Any tips on how to run lab? Just got lab card from a scav run
Play offline till u dont get lost
so while paca will only stop 0,2% from an M995 Bullet it will stop like 10%+ of a PP bullet or 7,62 PS shot which means an extra round to kill to the thorax.
How much had no trading cards, no flea market cards and limited stock in Rapist cards effected labs players
If ı use the lab card in offline mod do I keep it?
Yes
Oh ok thanks
Also are the colored cards still infinite dura?
usually you get more than enough cards if you dont wanna run lab constantly, you find them regularly as scav and you can buy another one every reset. Also if I survive the raid its more often than not that I will find at least 1 more keycard one of the dead raiders in lab
yes absolutely. But if you die in there like 10 times in a row you might need to take a break. As long as you clapping the raiders and survive you can keep going pretty much for ever
Tnx
what is this? anybody know?
ahh the new area! thank you
No problemo ☺️
hmmm
@oblique ruin help me out here pls
Penis helmet does exist
Tnx
Its a good helmet too
An amazing key i average about 200k-300k everytime i open it
How much is it on flea?
Goes for around for 150k-200k
Oh wow good price
Got mine for 188k
The new lighthouse expansion is so fucking op since it only got 1 entrance and u can see the whole bridge from 2nd floor windows
Get one of ur mates to hold it down and others loot
its the new area, people go to it alot so chances are its been looted, also you gotta extract afterwards and I think you need to move back to the mainland for that which is kinda risky
Can easily make 1m-1,5m per raid from looting the expansion
U’d be surprised how rarely people go there
Someone else goes there every 2 raids
Will sbih get lh branch?
went there twice, both times I got recked on the bridge by several people allready camping in the new zone 😄
It did
Oh ok
Also sbih requires 125m now
It was 100 before right?
Mhm
Damn, well at least we have range finders
Getting there is easy if ur being camped
Use cars for cover and theres actually a 2nd entrance at the front to the expansion area
Well now it just makes it so that if h spawn on the right h can still get loot on lh
Other than chalet and rogue camp
If u get the fishing hut spawn aka closest spawn to bridge u dont loot the fishing hut area instead u bolt straight to the expansion area
Learnt that the hard way
Is lh still not that popular compared to other maps?
Still run into a couple ppl
I have still not bothered learning it. Ive been saying I will but I actually should this wipe
But ppl farm water treatment for xp
Oh btw are the new bosses on lh yet?
Yeah theyre on alot of different maps
Wait they spawn on diff maps too…
Didnt know that
I assume the trader isnt added yet though is he
Customs,Woods,Shoreline and lh not sure if i missed anything
Nope the actual lighthouse is surrounded by mines that instakill u
They’ll prolly add the remaining stuff mid wipe
https://youtu.be/lMUvHWcHDPI i watched this
No reasonable way we can know the time they spawn where right now but LITERALLY EVERYTHING else is here. Have Fun :)

Tnx
anyone got the keys for disease history
does anyone have cottage bacck door key?
anyone have a damaged hard drive? i cant find any and ive searched filling cabinets and pc's and its my only part missing for gunsmith 1, i can pay if needed
Hello guys I have received these 3 quests after completing chemicals part 3 (Out of Curiosity, Big Customer and Chemical - Part 4), in the description it says penalties for failure -0.25 rep, does it mean if I turn it over to one trader, the other 2 will be marked as failure?
yes, it's a multiple choice one
as soon as you hand one in, the others fail and you'll get follow up quests depending on your choice
lost lab card to this subhuman lol
Ohh, thank you for quick response
It's better to turn it later, -0.25 rep is kinda a lot
Coming back after a long time, barely played. Looking for someone to go into my 1st raid with me.
U get the .25 rep back
yeah there's a "recover rep" task that you get for the ones you "failed" the task with
I recommend giving it to skier so u dont have to pay 1m to get the rep back
i need help i cant login into my acc
Why cant i buy m80 from level 2 peacekeeper
they changed it
its now pk3
omg
for the quest Scout, what happens when you spawn in front of Gate 0?
oh didn't realize you needed key this entire time lol I have been going in naked and trying to run them all
yeah
no
I need them too 
red
aight
wait are pfilters back to normal or are they cheaper?
since the technical crate buff
ty guys you helped me a lot
how do you get the vudu?
i love this game
Skier ll3 barter or from jaeger after the task ☺️
is looting filing cabinets the best way to level search skill?
why is FSR 1.0 performance setting disabled?
Looting everything you can is
ok but is filing cabinets the best
If you only loot one thing, no.
Loot everything you can
Always touch the death body
the best way is to loot any container
Take whatever they have on them in, put it in your backpack and throw it out - it gives some xp aswell
I guess you want elite search, and that’s not very easy to get
i have a task from ragman to get level 9 so
Level 9 search skill?
Are any of these bullets worth it or I can sell them?
i have a lot of different types of ammo but I don't know which one is good and which one is bad
If someone could help me I'd appreciate it 🙂
sell hp prs fmj nosler
BS good af
spp is ok and sp5 is like mehh
!ammo
spp nerf got me crying
5.45 😭
5.45 overhated no cap
True
5.45 is so bad
No u fr 
everytime ive used igolnik, it take 3 shots to kill but i always kill in three shots
every time
I can’t kill shit with it, even tho i hit them 30 times
Nice, thaaanks!
Perfect, tyy a lot 🙂
Well igolnik is like meh
I like bs more
But I understand
igolnik vs slick fucks so hard
True
Igolnik > BS on anything but Labs and Reserve.
Only late wipe tho
I don't like the fact that u sometimes can't kill someone in head with igolnik
i never hit headshot anyway its ok
But I understand why u say igolnik good
For BS it would take like
4 or 5 shots to kill slick man
Idk, 5.45 just feels weird
545 top tier
I like it a lot early wipe, but mid and late wipe it’s just mid
Nah nah it's easily controllable
not top tier
I would rather use 5.56 than 5.45 ngl
it's the easiest to get good ammo for
That's true
without it costing anything
i think everyone would
A meta m4 is 200k 💀
and then the whole gun costs 200k
is it me or is the recoil on every gun terrible? I am trying to shoot with a gun and i can never hit my targets
wdym
saker costs like 800 dollars alone
the gun isnt modded its just stock
It is, that's why u do tasks and lvl up traders so u can mod then better
at wized
Put head bobbing to 0.2
i found one weapon on a scav, it was basically just wood, idk how it's called
it's russian
Saker costs 40k on Flea
and it had so much recoil
Ak 47/74
scav gun
dont use scav guns
Or sks / mosin / vpo
i can't find that
5.45 is not a good option late wipe
In your Settings
watch me
5.45 is so funny i like using it because its silly
i also had a shotgun and a pistol which i found on an other scav
5.45 fucking sucks
in which tab
everything i have to shoot i mag dump
5.45 is basically free, decent ammo
How many did you kill with 5.45, compared to any other caliber last, late wipe? @prime comet

i dont have much in terms of options
I don’t need decent
I need god tier, or im not gonna kill anything
762 if i didnt have BP, i didnt kill anything
.338
thats just a bad mindset fr
True
PS got a buff this wipe
PS is very strong
That's not true
i think my highest killed caliber last wipe was 5.56 followed by 7.62x51 followed by 5.45 then 7.62
Still trash af
PS is very good at this point in wipe
Maybe
PS will insta pen lvl 4, which is the most common to see
No?

someone sold a bastion plate for 20k
Eyes
What kind of gun/ammo should a new player who doesnt like the mosin be going with?
20k plater though
vepr or sks
if an other scav shoots at me without hitting me and i kill him afterwards do i loose rep?
Cheap af wth
Aren’t they like 60k rn
I don't think 35 pen is insta pen in lvl 4
Yes
I am sad
wtf
is the Vepr full auto?
I wanna buy them all
he even hit in the middle of the fight
It doesn’t but 2 tap.
2 tap is still very strong against t4 at this point in wipe
i am not sure if he got me before i shot him or afterwards but i am pretty sure i lost rep
But u hit him first
no
Ig 🤷♂️
I like .366 more rn
Eko
ye
guys can i find thermite on woods? i need it for a trade and i dont really know any other map but i cant seem to find it anywhere on woods
just do that with vepr
is there any cheaper guns that have auto?
i need factory key for bunkhouse key on factory
right?
it's that little room near office
Save any knives you find
at lvl 1 traders u cant get low recoil autos, or if u can get an auto its a shit cannon
ump or mp5
Yea there is bunch of tech crates
8 Brown handles for mp5 , 7 greys for UMP
Go into raid without sheath slot
Yoink a knife every raid
Why are you poor?
Idk if im poor, but I am bad and know ill die, so I dont wanna lose all my monies
Gear fear bad
how do you use the red flares you get?
Money is ez
I aimed them at the ground and ahead of me and neither time did things come down
the air bruh
Think you have to aim in the air
Yea
How much money u have and gear fear is bad
The planes cant come through the ground
How will the plane see it from the ground
Why not it's just texture 
why are you guys being rude? reported
Realism
maybe like 1.5mil? I dont think I have gear fear, im just more or less looking for something beginner friendly to learn with
You symptoms of gear fear
i cannot tell if this is satire
Diagnosed
Wait did you use 2 flares on this? I would be way too scared without checking a guide for how to use them lol
😭😭😭

Please no ban for being rude

I have too many warnings 😦
@green portal was this in offline because they won’t work in offline
I got a warning for saying a guy was annoying yesterday, after he told me to get some bitches 
What did you check?
U should tho
Oh wait no, i've checked before
If someone’s annoying just block them and you end up with a much more enjoyable experience
Actually I have only 1 guy blocked
He was funny af tho, i don’t regret it
I think i have 9 warnings now
Skill issue fr fr
I don’t think I have any warnings but idk
Lucky mf
Guy was saying that this isn't ss channel and I can't post much winnings in this channel lol
I got banned for 1 day for politics joke 
Flea market examination
Lol
Think they’re competing honestly
Tf are these emotes


That's so cool

they do be spinning
Need help look for a person to play with level 16
factory is always fun, even as scav
Rip
ok imma make a spreadsheet for hideout stuff i need
because i keep forgetting this shit

there's so much lmao
True
is thermite that rare tho? i havent encountered it once during 9 lvls
its very useful for a non-flea barter
2 green gunpowder and 2 thermite for an ammo case
i know thats why i want it
whats this
it's a flare cartridge you can use to call in an airdrop
red one a good one
you have to aim it at the sky though
it may sound dumb, but it's not common knowledge
HUZZZAAAAAAA I SURVIVED MY FIRST RAID!!!!
Congrats 😄
heres what i got, dont mind empty stash got tired of having bugger all space so i sold EVERYTHING and bought basic meds, an sks, 60 rounds of ammo a bank robber rig (left behind for the rig in pic ) and the armor
can't have gear fear if you sell all your gear head tap
just spawned right on top of a pmc as a scav right next to co op extract?
twice in one day?
so much room for activities in that stash 😄
do you know how annoying it is trying to organise that mess they call an inventory so got sic of it and flogged it all
inventory tetris is like trimming a bonsai tree...enhance your calm
...and then I say F it and it all goes to hell again 😄
there are never enough containers
however once you fill up 4 scav junkboxes then its time to sell
eh well after flogging all my crap i finaly survived a raid
also since there is that new construction site with a bos on customd does the old gas station boss still spawn there
there is no boss at old gas
swear there was one there back when that intel building didnt exist
What do if no money and long scav timer ?
guys what is the price of gas analyzer? ive found CPU fan and it doesnt cost very much but theres this trade for gas analyzer
do u mean reshala?
How long scav timer?
you need gas analyzers found in raid. barters don't help. you can craft them in your hideout with the FiR tag for tasks
bruh just made 10 k profit by trading cpu fan for gas analyzer and then selling it
beanie weanies
cpu fan = 3k, gas analyzer = 13 k
10k in this game is nothing, and the cpu + fans are better off bartered for an M4
current flea price of cpu fans
That guy is far away from flea
If he thinks it’s nice to have 10k extra, just let him 🤷♂️
gotcha....
nah i wouldve sold it anyway cuz i needed space and if i sold the cpu fan i would just be throwing away 10 k
what lvl are you?
i mean wtf bro its free money
8
yeah i dont have flea yet unfortunately
🤷♂️ - you’ll need it for your hideout, and it’s worth way more if you would’ve kept it for when you hit lvl 15.
Does anyone have some kind of image or webpage that has all of the barter items on it?
The wiki has
i would figure out what items youre going to need in the future and what just sells for a good amount and try to prioritize them
Oh, I’ll take a look then
so i find a new one when i need it, man its not that complicated i dont need garbage sitting around in my already small af stash
It is possible to save stuff in your stash 🙂
You’re not getting far in this game with that mentality.
You do you, good luck 🙂
bruh
Are there any resources either here in this discord or others for people looking to group for quests? Im a noob but dont think its sherpa worthy. just having a hard time getting signal part 1 done.
beanie weanies
You don't wanna learn, so im just letting you learn it the hard way - what do you want me to say? lol
put it this way, last wipe i had 6 scav junkboxes always full with shit. not saying you NEED to hoarde items, but it's only gonna benefit you
i dont want u to say anything sheesh i explained to you that i needed SPACE so i sold some items i dunno why you keep telling me to keep stuff for later if my problem rn is having no space
Have you ever heard of cases?
^^
scav. junk. box.
also rigs save you a ton of space
Fax
and u have standartd edition? bcs rn i dont rly have money for 6 scav boxes
i have standard account and i was still able to keep all quest items
It's easy to get with standard.
Just requires that you know what's worth what, and doesn't sell 30k stuff for 13k stuff. 🙂
edition doesn't matter, it's how you spend your money. you can upgrade your stash to eod size in your hideout
CPI fan is needed for a quest?
having standard does not change how much money you have? also doesn't change difficulty of acquiring containers
yea for farming part 4
Yes, farming something
The same with gpus
50mins
Me shoot scav bc I was new and didn’t know better
Me too shit to do fence quest
so, as a pmc, take car extracts. +0.25 fence rep for first time
make sure you do fence quests and take co-op and paid extracts, normal scav raids survived give .01 rep, the easiest way is to take car extracts, the rep you get halves every time so its only usefull 5 or so times
What should I focus on once I feel confident playing factory, knowing the loot spots and the controls/gunplay/looting mechanics?
Things I feel lacking on:
Any other map. Loot abundance/types per map
Keys
Quest progress and where to progress the scav shotty quest
Recognising weapon customization options (what attachments go on what stuff go on what guns)
Crates (Low on storage)
Knowing if insurance is worth it or not for me
don't play factory unless you got a quest on it / need to help you teammates with quests
loot is basically non-existent, you go into factory for the kills
i would drop factory and focus customs if youre new, factory throws so much unnecessary pvp at you, i would watch customs looting guides and maybe #pvp-lfg , use interactive maps that will show you loot spawns, practice learning the extracts in offline for customs if needed
and focus surviving
and remember you can always disengage and run away from a fight/players
@wind jasper what level are you?
I started with factory because its a small compact map to learn and a video suggest its good for practice and getting comfortable with fights. Which it is. But yeah loot is lacking for sure Ill be moving to other maps
4
factory is a meat grinder customs is a new player grinder i recommend interchange
When you right click a gun you can use linked search to see what attachments you can put on the gun
You can also linked search other things like for example if you linked search an akm you can put a zenit mount on it and then you can linked search the mount to see what scopes you can put on it
build up some stash value and wait until you have the money to buy some cheap throw away gear sets before you go pvp on factory
You can also click edit preset to make a setup then you buy up the attachments
the easiest thing to do for gun parts is, sights are mainly 10k-50k, grips go from 5k-70k, suppressors are almost always worth taking, and stocks are rarely worth taking
ty folks. So whats actually important to focus on in what I listed, or a bit of everything?
Learn a map and a route
questing and learning maps should be your priority
Take that route a lot
get comfortable with customs extracts using an interactive map and offline mode
Just get to know the area and you’ll be able to spot people, get loot and when you get comfortable move around
Ok thanks dudes and dudettes
because the 366 guns are loud as fuck supressed anyways
Does your water collector need to be level 2 to use the filters?
cant hear is past 100 meters atleast
there's no such thing as a silencer
all they do is supress the initial burst/explosion at the tip that makes the huge booming noise of a gun
I thought silencers were OP
depending on gun/barrel/bullet size and speed, etc some suppressors have a larger effect than others
I wanted to try one out but was surprised how loud it still was
its harder to say where youre getting shot from at longer ranges but up close they arent op
supressors in this game are mostly used to not atract atention of 3rd parties from half a map away when you kill something
and recoil reduction is also part of it
Ahh okay
though gun ergonomics suffers as well
Im doing some wood tasking so I wanted a silencer
on 308 and 556 guns yea, on stuff like aks not at all
Would silencer work well for SKS?
yea, id say so
Put a pretty expensive attachment on a very budget gun 🤷
I wouldn't use my money like that, it do work fine tho
early on you can only supress .366 guns by the supressor you already have posted
vpo215 has a neat silencer, cheap and does something
I have several supressors but they dont seem to attach to any of my guns except that AK 😛
beware: some would attach, but the barrel might need an adapter first
it's complicated 
Yeah thats the confusing part for me, of needed like a thread or something
preset editor
and play around
though you'll only have parts there you've previously inspected
The preset editor does it allow me to use mods I dont have but are available from traders?
Ohh
it alows to use any mods you identified
there's a checkbox for exactly that
you can force "only use mods I have" or not, i.e. all you've inspected
it has to be maxed out
which is 3 or 4 iirc
yea these are getting sold lol
well if you just wait to max it out you get free money off moonshine
save water filters and sugar
i have like 15 filters and they are taking up space
the ingredients for moonshine right now are like 50k
and moonshine sells for like 300k
doesnt seem worth the space but ill look into it
is 366 FMJ a good ammo for that rifle
is vodka and whiskey needed for something later on?
good barters
no quests tho?
check the wiki, i dont remember any turn-ins for quests... possibly dailies
where do i do lfg?
yea i found it lol wasnt there befoe thx
question: can I not extract if I carry too much weight?
You can it’s just super slow to walk lmao
then I have no idea why I could not extract
Was it the correct extract?
yup
checkpoint fence in reserve
had the fattest run ever, 1mil+
and I could not extract for shit
and is it possible to find moonshine in game? ive seen videos where people said they almost always find moonshine in certain spots but i havent even seen moonshine outside of the handbook
got MIAd
Bizarre, people pull tank batteries out of reserve all the time and never have issues being overweight
People who say the KEDR is bad 💀

Watch Trio interchange and millions of other Escape From Tarkov videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
Yeah it spawns relatively rarely but it does spawn
is there an item a SCAV cannot extract with?
no
Even if I fail to survive, a raid where I kill some PMCs is a win in my book
dude I AM POOR
Get to scavving!
I looted a fully kitted MP5 and M4A1
with all the cool shit like scopes and lanters and shit
woods cabins have a solid spawn, ive found 4 this wipe just from them
cabins? is that the flooded village?
It’s best not to get attached to loot. Caring about loot will only bring pain. Once you learn to let go, the loot shall come to you on its own.
God's punishing me for sneaking up on a dude that was doing the same raider route as me
also is depot hermetic door 1 time use?
I don’t think so, but it’s on a timer. You probably arrived after it shut off.
What map is recommended for scav runs to get some weapons/armor? im pretty much out of those things
cause I first went to that. It was opened but I could not extract
same with fence, went there but could not extract
no they are the trailers in shturmans camp
there is 3
next to scav bunker?
sorry i dont know the map very well yet and the names of the places
nonono ur good man, thats what this chat is for
I personally do night Factory scav for some quick free roubles. If I’m utterly down bad, I’ll go into raid with a double-barrel shotgun and a sling-bag with meds in my secure container (total kit cost is super cheap, like <20k). Then I’ll kill a scav and run their kit.
and could you suggest some good place for thermite to spawn on woods? i cant find it anywhere
the wood shed has a spawn on the shelves but if youre looking for that i suggest the back of interchange
the problem here is that i dont know any other map at all, i only played woods so far xd
ah good to learn in offline that you can accidently put 7.62x39 in the mags for the moltov 209
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phoBn7rnwHc&ab_channel=Pestily this video is old but the principles are still the same, woods lacks on a vareity of things and i would recommend learning something like customs
Been working on making a few different runs for loot runs so everyone isn't going to the same spots after watching one of my videos. This one is an extremely consistent money maker and can be adapted to be part of other runs and be ran specifically.
3 Post Wipe Loot Runs - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgWnqVvfsY8&t
How to get rich in Tarkov ...
learn customs and focus on tasks
your objective shouldn’t be to get money rn
Farming roubles is a trap early on. But before learning to survive effectively, new players may struggle not to go broke if they don’t do low risk loot runs between questing.
any suggestions on learning the "pace" of various maps (i.e. what the general flow of traffic looks like at given points after start of raid), or is it really a first-hand need to learn. basically just looking to learn where I might expect to see people ambush me when I'm just trying to task
Hot spots mainly.
Quest places, and places with loads of loot.
It’s basically first hand experience. You just have to die a lot to learn. One thing that helps is to look up a map of the spawns and visualize where you think players can plausibly reach within the first few minutes of the raid.
just learn where high pvp areas are (customs: dorms, stronghold, crackhouse), i would recommend staying away from them if you are new or waiting until later in the raid to go for a quest or loot
thanks all...die more it is 😄
been lucky doing some stashes, just not in getting the basic stuff for hideout/starter tasks
On Customs, one nice trick is follow the main road rather than trying to cross through the construction yard or around dorms. Main road feels dangerous, but is actually quite safe.
hm that's good to know, always felt like I'm running up a shooting range there heh
I'm over 'losing stuff', I just seem to have awful luck in being in the wrong place at the wrong time
can you not throw grenades on button press anymore? do you have to pull it out then pull the pin?
any suggestions for settings to see in the dark better?
Gotta pull the pin
They made it like that last wipe
ah, i skipped last wipe so that'll be why its new to me xd
no more dashing 10 grenades in 10 seconds ;-;
Yeah grenades were crazy before
go into an offline night raid and tweak your post-fx/monitor color settings until it looks as clear as possible
The prime example is the landmark video where he goes labs with 100 Grenades
HAHA
i'm watching clips of myself from older wipes and so many of them is me just dashing 5 grenades down hallways in dorms and interchange xd
why cant i put a dovetail on my simonov sks

What are you guys suggestions for the best graphics to run in, noted my setup is capable of running everything at max, I just know there are some advantages to setting some things to lower
is it the op sks or reg sks
idk its the fancy looking black one
cool thx
dovetail goes on the op sks
What scope are you trying to get
so how do i put a holo on here
it lets me put one where the front sight goes
but obviously thats WAAAAAY too far up

what lvl do i have to be to be to unlock the woods keeper quest? I did the previous and havent unlocked it yet
They changed the huntsman path task line
which one gets to woods keeper? is it after the reshala quest?\
Now its after factory office kills
Alot of different tasks unlock now from this task alone
Does your fence reputation go down if you kill scavs on pmc
It goes up
As long as the pmc has killed a scav
Tf
When u play pmc
U can't get your scav karma up
Only
With car exits and coop
Extracts
always kill scavs as a pmc
maybe consider voip if you want to be passive and ask for coop extract
i did the office quest and it didnt show up, the others did so i assumed theres a lvl requirment
MURDER MURDER MURDER
Not possible in EU tbh
Most likely havent checked the level requirement yet
i aint trusting any1 in this game just shoot any moving thing
yep, i dont wanna trust player scavs too, never used coop extract once in my life
