if i don't know where they are, i find cover first, then zigzag away, cover to cover.
if i DO know where they are/have visual, i push them with my gun out (not sprinting), and shoot from the hip (usually single shots at medium ranges to allow recoil to settle, automatic bursts/spamming in barrel stuffing range)

#

nowadays most of the time i try to avoid PvP though, since three wipes of being aggressive has never made my K/D any better. trying to stay silent, avoiding high traffic areas or higher tier loot spawns, and sticking away from main thoroughfares/corridors that see a lot of movement

lost ore
#

If your bad at pvp, then yes. Its a good idea to play safe.

plucky axle
#

thanks man i had not thought of this. will try 👍

lost ore
#

If he has high damage bullets.

#

No, but it will make it easier.

plucky axle
#

slightly modded ak-105s or 74s for rifles, M9 if i'm doing a pistol run (i always lose anyways so this way it's less gear). Always at least PS if i'm running 5.45mm but usually BP or BS. Never raid with less than tier 4 armor since it's so easy to get on scavs

lost ore
#

Honestly im not very good at pvp myself, so honestly im not the best person to ask for tips on how to be better at pvp.

plucky axle
#

hotkeyed tourniquets and meds in my butt bc I have almost none left

#

870, 590 or Saiga with magnum shells if i'm feeling shotguns

#

every conceivable way. it's like a tarkov first person deaths compilation dude.

#

one tapped, armor shredded, overkill damage to limbs

#

heavy bleeds, fractured legs, contusions from helmet bounces, flash and clears

#

grenades a lot of the time too

stark anchor
#

What does it mean when it says crate on map genie? Does it mean the green wooden crate and if so, why doesn’t it just call it a weapon crate?

inland abyss
#

This game is literally dark souls/ looter shooter and I love it I just gotta learn the maps and exfills

topaz trout
#

is m855 worth using over 7.62 ps

Don’t they have weapon parts in them?

theres normally a better option

#

Oh my lord...

#

I would use 7.62x39mm ps over m855 yes. But you cant really compare the two ammo types since its not the same caliber.

just a few bucks off or osmething

I am broke as a joke right now

but I am obsessed

I spent all day disecting how to build an ak from scratch

does the plans map for woods do anything?

how do I get the extendo mag for the intro mechanic quest?

m856 is worth using now?

#

there is not really an option for me with level 2 traders after they moved m80 to pk level 3 :/

cold fog
#

wait they moved m80?

pulsar junco
#

i mean, bcp fmj can work, you just gotta hit those headshots

cold fog
#

it was still PK2 like earlier this week

pulsar junco
#

yea, its shitty

#

so was the mk12 gas block from mechanic 1 to mechanic 2

royal monolith
#

yea i loved using it on the RFB

cold fog
#

huh

pulsar junco
#

sorry mechanic 1 to peacekeeper 2

royal monolith
#

was hella fun

cold fog
#

I mean m80 was stupid strong so I'm not entirely surprised but that's news to me lmao

pulsar junco
#

yeah, kinda didn't make sense to offer a round to pen class 4 before you actually have access to class 4

royal monolith
#

also heard that 5.45 PP is good now

#

but the guns are shitty

pulsar junco
#

yep. it's literally BP -1 damage and -1 pen

buoyant crane
#

does the "hit count" on the post raid stats still count overpens aka shooting arm, penetrates, hits torso = 2 hits

pulsar junco
#

5.45 ak's are okay with mods for recoil

buoyant crane

was curious if one round just hit the same guy twice or if I got a collat at some point

buoyant crane
#

but PK also doesnt sell BCP

bleak oak
#

So... as a pmc, don't trust scavs when it comes to coop extract. They have all to gain, and you have all to lose. Not worth the risk. We tried it earlier and the two scavs mowed the 3 of us down after they convinced us to trust them. The only way I would trust them is if they have their melee weapon out and turn around or something

#

It does give you like .2 fence rep, so try it as a scav, just not as a pmc

buoyant crane
bleak oak
#

yeah, I didn't and paid the price

buoyant crane
#

and do it b4 they enter los

bleak oak
#

los?

buoyant crane
#

line of sight

#

alternate you can tell them to drop their gun and you'll hear it loudly if they do with the new noise

bleak oak
#

they won't want to drop it, but yeah melee could work

#

oh well

buoyant crane
#

I try to convince pmcs all the time and I offer to knife out or drop gun and its at least a 50/50 whether they accept and I successfully extract

buoyant crane
#

its your rules to set

bleak oak
#

yeah... if they have their gun out, kill em

#

i mean as a pmc

tight ether
#

fuck yesssss the edge of darkness package rocks

I got a gamma pouch and some sweet gear

So can you ask for sherpas in this channel or should you user the link? Id appreciate for someone to talk me through my stash in screen share - its chock full and idk what to keep/sell

7.62 mdr good?

ohhhhhh yeah

good luck finding ammo for it though

does bp fit?

no. 7.62x51 BCP FMJ, M80, M62, M61, M993

smoky moth
untold elm
#

m80 and m62 is purchasable?

smoky moth

m80 is behind PK LL3, m62 is behind a quest

.30 rep requirement, 25k spent

#

very doable, but it WAS on peackeeper 2 at the start of wipe

untold elm
#

gun seems really good if set up correctly

pulsar junco
#

it's an RFB with better mods and full auto

untold elm
#

ok thanks

25k is easy

its only 2.8mil roubles and you can sell to increase that aswell

misty ginkgo
#

Gotta so some tasks tho

bold kernel
#

I played 8 hours today and I went lvl 14->15

buoyant crane
#

the big thing is just timings during the raid I'd say

#

which is a very complicated subject

bold kernel
#

General idea?

ancient tartan
#

Ye bro just fight everything

buoyant crane
#

You know how there a general time when places will be visited and when they're empty

#

ie, ppl often rush to the nearest loot spot they spawn at, then to the next, etc

#

there is some meta timings in which if you wait a certain time, you're likely to not run into people as often, or if you're looking for PvP, can anticipate their airrval or departure

#

not something you can just say "go here at X time" tho

bold kernel
#

Oh I see. Combination of map knowledge, experience, and knowing spawns

ancient tartan
#

Ye

#

Learning spawns is pretty useful

#

Cuz then u know what people r finna rush to first and u know what to avoid early

Imo at least

I’ve never really studied them. Just by experience my map knowledge is pretty solid

what gun and ammo

#

and if 20 kills over 4 wipes really is true i don’t think this game is for you

plucky axle
#

depends on map. factory i run shotguns or SMG's with Magnum/AP rounds. more open maps it's usually a 5.45mm AK platform running at minimum PS, but usally BP or higher. never less than tier 4 armor

#

this wipe though i'm still using scav guns because i am trash

that's why i am in the beginner assistance channel

i kill people

Get medal

i dont play in groups or on servers

i think honestly

plucky axle
#

give up right

mint light
#

you should get a clipping software, i think medal is free actually, play a raid on ur preferred map and send it here and we tell you what ur fucking up with

#

my guess is playing too slow and making a shit ton of noise at the same time and also being scared to take fights

plucky axle
untold elm
#

this can’t be true

plucky axle
#

that's less than 1 kill every 80 hours of playtime

#

i refuse to believe it

plucky axle

so i play cautiously & slowly

#

exactly

plucky axle

#

it’s not being going well for 1700 hours

playing slowly contrary to popular belief is probably getting u killed in reality

# buoyant crane what do you do to make money

There are several aspects and ways to earn money, but one of the more prominent ways that I utilize is going on night raids with some cheap NVGs and hitting Shoreline's high-value rooms.

Easy loot, get in and out, if cultists, then that's a bonus- but you'd have to fight them carefully.

The risks are 50/50, it's either dead or full of Shoreline questers out of the resort, or you have juicers with quad visions rolling up with raid bags sweeping the whole resort for loot, and PVP.

celest sage
buoyant crane
tall thicket
#

Sometimes, sometimes not. It's early wipe phase so I've encountered only questers outside of the resort itself.

native crow
celest sage
tall thicket
#

Not everyone has quad night visions, so using quads will give you a significant advantage.

weak junco
#

anyone wanna run a few? got a newbie with me trying to help him out

buoyant crane
#

do you think I'd have an easier time on shoreline avoiding PvP (or at least winning) as a solo by using a kit like this at night @tall thicket

#

versus playing day without NVD

native crow
celest sage
native crow
#

I have a lot of junk?

celest sage

How do you need so many items

buoyant crane

#

hideout and future quests

tall thicket
buoyant crane
#

you need to keep a lot of things for hideout+quests

tall thicket
#

I've only run into full five-stacks at night raids really.

native crow
#

mf out here asking 5000 questions

buoyant crane
tall thicket
buoyant crane
#

I mean hitting the other point of interests for scav kills + looting like stashes

#

do you think I'd avoid PvP easier at night with NVDs rather than day without

tall thicket
#

Resort is a good area for scav kills, you can also check out the pier- but most of my night raid scav kills for Punisher came from resort.

celest sage
native crow
#

Because I have a lot of things, is that hard to understand

tall thicket
#

You can avoid PVP a lot easier at night since you can run into the shadows of the night, NVGs have only so much range.

buoyant crane
#

yeah I suppose so, so its more audio

#

I like to have the ability to separate and get distance

tall thicket
#

A good player will spot you regardless with quads, though, since a fast moving target in the silhouette can show out.

buoyant crane
#

if I hit a player

tall thicket
#

Audio is a key player in night raids, yes.

Can anyone help me find a lion?

I'm just guessing the other point of interests are less frequented by the more equipped players at night

Alternatively, from the left of the helicopter with the nose facing to SCHOOL, the building on the right on the second floor has a medical lodge in the middle behind the fence wall gate setup.

These are the relative directions rather than the landmarks of the actual building names so you can get an idea of where it is.

because it is 9 days into wipe how would it go if i tried going labs un kitted?

would I Just get instantly dogged on by cheaters or would I Instantly get destroyed by chads and streamres or would it be a low gear sweat fest

i remember what two scav did to me
one was shooting me and when i went to shoot back the 2nd one that didn't shoot me engaged me

as well as never introducing any sort of skill or gear based matchmaking

woeful spruce
steel zinc
#

I guess the no skill based matching matching is ok but the sqad vs solo seems like something that could be added without damaging the integrity of the game

#

Did they describe why?

fervent quest
woeful spruce
#

i dont remember, exactly but if i was to say its because it brings an element of uncertainty to every engagement and makes you scared of pvp and forces to choose engaements carefully always thinking if theres more or is it safe to loot the kills yet, their goal is to make this game stressfull and unfair in a rewarding way that when you overcome a team it feels great. is it a good design decision? im not sure possibly not but the game is pretty fun as is i'd say and always knowing youre in a lobby of solos would be a bit less so i think

woeful spruce
bold kernel
#

what do i do with these?

steel zinc
#

So is the overall goal of this game to loot and then sell that majority of your loot? I am not trying to downplay it because obviously there is more complexity to that but the main thing being is to just loot and sell?

steel zinc
woeful spruce
# bold kernel what do i do with these?

you need 3 foundi n raid for a jager quest later on, when you have one of those in your inventory you can enter the labs map, upon entering the card is consumed

bold kernel
#

so should i just keep them then

brittle canyon
#

and everything else in the game are either required for or aids you in achieving these two

woeful spruce
#

but both aproaches are valid

steel zinc
woeful spruce
brittle canyon
#

max hideout gives you passive income which you can use to buy gear from flea
max traders makes everything a whole lot cheaper and gives access to exclusive high tier gear

#

although bsg is actively designing against it, most loot is simply an equivalent value stack of cash, and cash is transmutable to anything you wish it to be

#

unless specifically needed FIR for a quest you optimize in-raid pickup based on roubles per slot
