glukhars bois can, but I am nowhere near confident enough to feesibly farm him
#eft-chat-2
wild brook
wild brook
what is it like 8 bois in total, plus all the raiders and pvp that happens on that map
summer lynx
its glukhar + 7 guards, 3 guards for weewoo, and 2 guards for train
oh and 3-4 that can spawn underground
wild brook
I have some friends but only one of them is really still actively playing the rest are like level 15-25 and pretty broke to go geared
most of my raids with them are doing quests and such

hidden siren
what do u guys sell to skier to level him up
low fulcrum
Any tips for a noob who can't kill/survive/complete tasks/level up/ or compete in any meaningful way?
hidden siren
be less afraid
low fulcrum
Well that does me a whole lotta good. Can I kill people with my bravery? Cuz thats all ive got at this point
I don't think this game could be any fucking harsher to people who 100 hours a week hardcore
don't play*
mighty zodiac
Well that does me a whole lotta good. Can I kill people with my bravery? Cuz thats all ive got at this point
@low fulcrum
I empthesise completely. Its hard if you can't put allot of time into it. Im currently on a break from it buut past experience showed me that patience and setting ambushes in bushes etc tends to work.. Rat play all the way
low fulcrum
Not really, I did it earlier today. 30-40 rounds into a guy who just turned and shot me once and i was dead. Afterwards he laughed at me because i had "garbage" ammo. WTF I don't have access to anything better, so I literally can't kill anything
There's no point in even playing, im just a garbage target
meager finch
what gun are you using?
meager finch
hmm that should actually work ... what map are you playing?
low fulcrum
I was playing only Customs but I'm starting to learn shore and reserve. Trying to do more reserve, but its all the same
meager finch
reserve from my experience is kinda tricky pvp because it has already loot that is more needed and useful in the end game
very high chance of raiders
so all that combined leads to higher geared players i'd say
inner karma
not the best for a beginner
low fulcrum
well pestily mentioned it has a lot of good loot so i thought i could get some
meager finch
whilst maps with "less" interesting loot for alot of players will lead to more lighter variation
inner karma
Because its the smallest map
low fulcrum
I still have that first task to do where you get the TOZ armor, cuz I can't find any and/or extract
I literally spawned once on factory, and some dude in an adjoining room just sprinted right over to me and killed me.
inner karma
You mean the first skier quest right?
low fulcrum
yea
meager finch
well ... streamers and recommendation .... ofc overall on paper all those tips they give are very good, no doubt, and they can play out in the long run, but with missing experience and not access to stuff plus their skill level usually (pestily for example) in even with the cheapest stuff killing full geared 4 man teams, leads to frustration, if thats not playing out like they actually say and show
low fulcrum
still working on the first therapist and prapor ones too
inner karma
factory has 4 spawns and it spawns on scavs
Therapist first quest is easy, just get fuel and craft them or go into reserve and inter and find them
Medbags
meager finch
customs is in my eyes the most starter-friendly map, due to the high variety of extract-points
inner karma
mp-133 shotguns spawn on scavs
low fulcrum
and with the new FiR changes I can't even stuff something into my container
inner karma
and tip of advice dont go into the eft chat 1 you will just get shit on @low fulcrum
vestal stirrup
vepr km, akm and sks is your friend early on
vestal stirrup
once you get access to flea, buy a hunter and slap some m62/m61 in it and you'll be gucci
inner karma
m80 aswell
vestal stirrup
unless you have it on trader no
meager finch
even though Tarkov is pvp/pve combined, the earlier quests don't require pvp, which means, you can build up your experience, by more focusing on shooting scavs and building up some ground amount of items in your stash 🙂 especially with a couple guns
vestal stirrup
m80 cost almost the same on flea
low fulcrum
well, Im too garbage to get tasks done so levelling has been a bitch. Been stuck at 7 for awhile now
inner karma
play with a duo partner
vestal stirrup
try to stay alive tbf, living means not losing anything
low fulcrum
While it might help me I would feel lousy if i got someone killed.
vestal stirrup
early on it's important to always stay alive every raid
low fulcrum
which is more than likely lol
vestal stirrup
even if you have shit loot, if you're alive that means you dont have to buy new set of gear
meager finch
easiest is to ... wait things out on a map ... take it very slow, in worst case let the timer run for a while, until things cool off then make a move through a map 🙂 on customs that can work in your favor. then you can search for things, might still engage scavs but chance of other pmc's is quite smaller, and even scav players often have their limit in patience on a map 🙂
vestal stirrup
dont even play on customs unless you're questing, map is full of chokepoints
play on shoreline or something where you can farm hidden stash
low fulcrum
inters good too?
meager finch
well it can be, although i experienced that alot of pmc's go exclusivly hunting in oli and the more remote stores to find ppl ... which is a valid tactic, but if you collected stuff and you die eventually even if you think it's quiet, can be also frustrating 😄
vestal stirrup
btw always scav on reserve since there's a lot of loose loot there
meager finch
- for me personally the map is troublesome if you can't get your settings right, for me everything daylight is good, but the darker areas are too dark for me, so fighting there takes alof of concentration
yap playing scav especially at the beginning is more rewarding. Ofc leveing your PMC won't go on with it, but you get free stuff, you can learn the map and especially on reserve your extracts are far more easy to reach, compared to PMC exits
vestal stirrup
reserve extract is easy now since D2 extract added
dont even need hermatic or paracord
meager finch
well paracord is still nice and remote (i don't even have that option myself, but would love to go there eventually), but d2 is an exit everyone knows now and from what i heared, alot of ppl are camping it
and you have the raiders that spawn down there and if you're unlucky they can be even bigger pain then players sometimes 😄
meager finch
i did in fact have the pleasure just once so far, because i wanted to take the d2 exit, but failed to find my way 😄 so i killed 2 raides and yet went for the bunker exit, as i at least knew how to get there 😄
i know where the d2 exit is ... but only from the cliff tower ...
i couldn#t find a way starting from the buildings down there 😄
vestal stirrup
i see, i memorized the underground in 2 raids but i guess it can be confusing sometimes
meager finch
well i assume you played alot of reserve before that already
vestal stirrup
i do yes
meager finch
in total i maybe had like 30 raids including scav runs on reserve .... thats not enough for me to recall every corner of every building with closed eyes 😄
copper fulcrum
Does anyone get the constant stuttering when moving / selling stuff from inventory and just switching tabs. Sometimes it freezes up and cursor goes super choppy until it sorts itself out?
meager finch
sometimes, but not very often
for me thats more when the game is running for a longer time and it ate alot of RAM
copper fulcrum
Could it be a ram issue? Bare in mind it's only on tarkov but it happens every 10 mins or so
I have 16gb, and bare in mind never causes an issue in game
But my menus and stuff are so choppy all of the time and laggy. And when it does the stuttering freeze I have to wait about 5-6 seconds before resuming whatever I'm doing.
meager finch
well my game when it runs for a couple hours ... it eats 10GB like nothing, ended up even with 24GB assigned to the game ... so i'd say there is def something with building up alot of data in your ram, thats not getting cleared unless you restart your game once in a while
ashen folio
how many weapons are in this game
copper fulcrum
Yet I see on YouTube, all the streamers using it hella smooth in this patch. I'm guessing they're on more than 16gb so it out powers the shitty optimisation
vestal stirrup
wasnt that stutter from unity garbage collector
dusty viper
How many of y'all have got the kappa
meager finch
doesn#t the kappa mean you finished every quest?
if so ... then easiest answer would be, everyone who was determined to kill killa 100 times ... 😄
solar rivet
you dont have to kill him 100 times for kappa
there are certain quests you dont have to do for kappa
meager finch
oh i didn't know that, thought the kappa quest is basically the last quest you have to do after you completed everything else
but if that is the case, then probably alot more ppl 🙂
i am currently working on my beta container 😄 will take a while until i get there 😄
hearty acorn
Are people still complaining about mosin? No? Are they complaining about AP-20, because they fucking should
last 3 times I've died, ap-20
meager finch
i hope the MOA values of shotguns get fixed soonish 😄 wanna getback into using them
hearty acorn
1 fucking tap through full t4
might as well not use armor at all
naked, slick or gen4
meager finch
well i never got into using expensive armor, just super rarely
unfortunately i die anyway ... so i went into using lvl3 mostly that i find with scavs
🙂
hearty acorn
considering I got shot by a fucking shotgun at a range of over 100m
the moa is just fine
meager finch
well just check the values
meager finch
if you take off the barrel, the MOA is around 20
if you put the barrel on, it goes up to 49
cedar venture
AP-20 penetrates only trough lvl 3 and over, if you'd have a lvl 4 vest on you'd survive a couple more rounds
meager finch
whilst saiga shotgun has a value of like 5
vestal stirrup
AP-20 have 37 pen
it have high chance to pen t4 in one shot
and completely decimate you with 150+ damage
primal ice
what happened to the sicc case?
vestal stirrup
shits fun to use
hearty acorn
not very fun to be on the receiving end of
cedar venture
look, I mostly use armor just so I can defend myself against scavs with shotguns and those who use PS SKSs, if you die due to you getting shot from plain sight then you should reconsider the way you head towards your desired destination
hearty acorn
haven't gotten into many actual firefights lately
cedar venture
e.g not walking in the middle of the road/hallway
hearty acorn
just found some rats hiding behind corners with their saigas
cedar venture
rats with saigas? that's new
hearty acorn
after the ap20 buff
cedar venture
nvm they really buffed ap20
hearty acorn
thank god most of the time they miss the thorax but then my arm or stomach is fucked
maybe I should descend to a rat too
hurrdurr I put 50k into my loadout that can take down a 5 stack of chads
bsg pls
meager finch
i had lvl4 armor yesterday and helmet with shield ... i died by a scav player that came running into my room and took me out by killing me by shooting into arms
hearty acorn
mosin was fine 😄
meager finch
so armor was totally useless 🙂
hearty acorn
armour is totally useless most of the time
meager finch
before that fight, it was even worse, i lost both legs, and both arms ... and my helmet and armor was 100% intact
hearty acorn
but that m80 really fucking hurts so gotta wear it
meager finch
not a scratch ... which is myself asking how the fuck can they not hit the biggest part of my body once
hearty acorn
because theyre using shit bullets and are intentionally going for the unarmoured parts
or want to use the gear themselves
meager finch
i am happy if my ironsight or sight is even remotely placed on them ... in a fast fight, i cannot really point out that i aim for the 2 legs and 2 arms around whilst my enemy is basically moving and evading getting shot and such 😄
hearty acorn
legmeta isn't viable unless you're within melee range or spent 200k on a gun that has no recoil
I prefer to use bullets that go through in one shot without doing much damage on the armour
ap20 just completely fucks the armour and still kills in one shot
not even 7n1 does that
meager finch
even in night raids scav players without night vision are better then me
😦
luck continues ... PMC char raids surival rate last 4 days 0% 😄
fallow dirge
its not difficult to be a better player as a scav.. after all.. you got nothing to lose and you do not hestitate
meager finch
well he came slow around the corner and i was aiming exactly to that corner, shot, but he immediately shot and gave me a headshot
fallow dirge
sounds like a cheater unless he knew where you are because u made anoise
meager finch
and then i watch guys on stream how they solo a fucking 5 man heavy geared team all by their own ... whilst i cannot kill an non-armored scav player 😄
with night vision in a night raid, against him not having all that
fallow dirge
Well I think that those guys aren't average players nor good players. They're probably at the top with a lot of FPS experience and muscle memory.
crisp mauve
ok, so how do you play in ASIA/SG servers? you and your team don't get to live a few meters from your spawn and lose your hard earned stuffs in a blink of an eye - Is this part of a new mechanic in the game?
vestal stirrup
that's just how it is in SG, have to memorize spawn and counter them
crisp mauve
oh yea, while running be killed together with half a second gap both headshot , jsut a few meters from spawn? that is so hardcore tarkov, scary new mechanic, how do you get past it?? I've watched youtube no tutorial...
fallow dirge
Yup sadly. You gotta move, plan quickly. Know the map and spawn of other players.
Tons of experience helps alot because you can guess quite well where other players spawn the most. It's randomized but still, there aren't many spawns so guessing isn't a tough thing to do
Where did you run, what map, did you have any cover?
Also if you were running close to eachother in same direction without really trying to make the shot more difficult for the enemy..
That's tarkov, you'll never be safe. You must think you're always watched by someone. If you go into the bush, think that there's another player already proned in that bush. Something like that happened to me yesterday. The guy was literally behind me in same bush
trail zealot
I'm so tired of this semi auto bug. Just ran into Gluhar and my gun fired a single round before stopping
meager finch
ahhh ok that was what i had yesterday
had an RPK the first time, and had a fight against another guy and had a feeling my gun just fired one time, so i had to click dozens of times to actually shoot 😄
trail zealot
Yeah it sucks. It's been in the game since wipe and still not word on it getting fixed
pastel spade
@trail zealot sounds like you have a broken mouse or fps stutters
(this is just in my experience that happens from fps stutters or broken mice)
trail zealot
No, my mouse is just fine and no stutter
fallow dirge
I've never noticed any problems with my gun(full auto guns). The only problem I had is my gun wouldn't fire at all unless reconnected. That happened to me in the last wipe when eft got bigger.
trail zealot
A search on the subreddit will bring up many results
I've legit spawned in the same damn corner of reserve five times
All my keys are for the other side of the map...
pastel spade
get more keys 😳
meager finch
big dscync
if you see that, that there is a guy kinda afk or running on the spot and you shoot but can't kill him
best is to go into a bush and restart the game
that fixes it because you are still running pretty much the same route as you see for yourself
but since there is dsync you cannot see live enemies but they see you passing
thatswhy you suddenly die or take damage even though nobody is shooting and nothings near by
gleaming reef
meager finch
np
fallow dirge
Ohh really?
That's crazy. I hope will be fixed ASAP. I had it happen to me few times. I was getting shot but couldn't hear or see the enemy nor the shots. Didn't die but it was pretty damn close.
Good to know that people can see me run whereas I don't see them bcus of desync.
meager finch
i mean i have no proof in terms that this is how it is, but the only explanation, due to the fact, that you obv have a dsync and are not getting the information about the positions from other players, but you are not offline, but online connected, so your information must be available on the server for others. Which then would make sense how you and me as well sometimes obv die out of nowhere
and whilst ppl run on the spot and i reconnect, then those people are gone, because your client synched everything fresh and has now the valid information from the server
pastel spade
just accidentally deleted my docs case with green keycard 😢

Hi, im new to the server and to the game. I would like to group with someone who i can play with and be chill

maiden mulch
Guys prapor has task to kill 5 scavs in customs.can i be scav too or i need to be pmc?
meager finch
all tasks are pmc only
maiden mulch
😦
and wait do i need to get to an extraction point or it will gain the kills even if i die?
meager finch
even if you die
maiden mulch
oh kk.thx
meager finch
there are tasks that require to be alive
or at least extract
but even then, you can make a part task
succeed, die, come back and extract
which he counts together as both partial tasks completed successfully
maiden mulch
oh ok.
meager finch
BUT there are also tasks that require to complete something AND extract successfully in the same round
the first tasks are pretty easy in terms, you can complete one by one, die in between and continue next round at that point
maiden mulch
yea i know.i just got pretty good weapons from a raid when i killed some pmc so i dont wanna lose them
maiden mulch
what map do you recommend?i am always playing on reserve.
meager finch
well i mostly play customs
maiden mulch
customs it pretty big
meager finch
but if you feel comfortable on reserve you can ofc play there
finite pebble
hello, does anyone else feel like the Scav case 85k raid was nerfed af? in the last 4 days or so, it's been highly unprofiting like 80% of the time.
meager finch
at the end, if you already have some basic knowledge, then it's less what i recommend, but more what you prefer in terms of playstyle and environment 🙂
maiden mulch
oh kk thx
meager finch
what is the scav case 85k?
finite pebble
in your hideout, one of the later upgrades is called a Scav case. you basically pay an amount of money or give in intelligence/moonshine and in like 2+ hours you will get a random set of Found in raid items
finite pebble
its a bit of gambling, but uses to be profiting.. for me at least it used to
maiden mulch
btw i got 2 cpu 2 dvd 1 ram and 1 cpu fan.i will use it in the hideout upgrades or i should just sell it?
meager finch
hmm are there any upcoming upgrades that are available for you within the next days?
finite pebble
not sure what your hideout and tasks look like, but you'll not use the DVDs and RAM now
meager finch
and do you have space to store them ... if so then you might keep them, if not you might wanna sell them
maiden mulch
yea i have space.what you mean upcoming upgrades
meager finch
those are easy obtainable items overall, you will find them quite frequent, so nothing really to worry
like your hideout, do you have any levels you are planning to do, and do yo you need those things for it
maiden mulch
i killed a pmc and i thought those items are really rare lol so i ran to my extraction point
meager finch
well at the beginning, i stored everything, but you will get a feeling about things that are quite common to find 🙂
finite pebble
Mechanic will have tasks where he wants you to give him FIR CPUs and CPU fans and such but there is no such thing (at least in the beginning/mid game) for DVDs and RAM so sell that
maiden mulch
ok
finite pebble
wiki can always tell you more about all kinds of things like that tho, so for better and detailed information, search there
maiden mulch
kk
meager finch
true, it gives you information about what you can exchange for said items, like for new weapons you could get from dealers or other items
the sheer amount of trading you can do eventually, always leaves me with one wiki page open all the time whilst i am playing 😄
maiden mulch
haha nice
meager finch
by now i have 4 Scav Junk Box's ... that are filled with all kinds of stuff, because on the long run i can exchange all kinds of stuff and maybe fit my PMC char with weapons and gear only by trading, thats like a small goal 😄
maiden mulch
what is 4 scav junk box's? you mean in the hideout?
meager finch
no in my stash
maiden mulch
oh
meager finch
a scav lucky junkbox is a big container
maiden mulch
oh
btw what are these weapon containers that pro players have?like why they are so special?
meager finch
containers use less space, then they provide for storing items
like your rigs
rigs take less space, but provide more space inside to store stuff
so at the beginning you are probably have alot of rigs you gather and store stuff in there
but eventually you wanna get more efficient containers
thats where weapons cases and junk boxes and eventually items cases come into play
they all provide more space inside for little spaces they need in your stash
but are specialized in what you can store in them
maiden mulch
oh kk
meager finch
i cannot store weapons in my junk box, and not barter items in my weapons case
cerulean tundra
anyone know what rig has the most 2x2 slots?
meager finch
no idea
vivid schooner
does anyone know what is the quest completion?
there is no info on the wiki, is it all quests or what?
maiden mulch
guys why i have only one scope that i can buy of traders?like i am level 4 and i dont have scopes that traders can sell me.like i have but they cant be attached to ak
tired orchid
@cerulean tundra should be MK3
cerulean tundra
bruh mk3 has none
tired orchid
Oh 2x2 I am an idiot
M1 Rig then
AVS or TV-110 also have two
If you look for unarmored take this:

dark maple
Anyone else boutta watch this stream
@maiden mulch if you're only level 4 you'll have a harder time but you can still put some scopes / sites on an ak.
Might need to throw a better dust cover or a rail on though. Or a foregrip that has rails on the top.
maiden mulch
what you mean harder time?
dark maple
you want traders leveled up to like 2 or 3
If you're only level 4 you only have level 1 traders so not many options
If you meant you're level 4 traders then you have tons of options. Right click an AK in your inventory and do "edit preset" and play around in that, it's way easier to find scopes that way.
Once you get your workbench installed you can do this.
Or use this: https://www.eftdb.one/weaponmodding/220001/AK-74N/
@maiden mulch
dark maple
NP @maiden mulch you'll see that if you change the dust cover to a railed one then you can put many more optics on the ak.
But get your workbench built in the hideout and use edit preset and you'll have a really easy time with it.
and remember that the ammo you use is very important, you want high penetration values.
maiden mulch
kk thanks

Cuz now you snipe someone in the heart and literally nothing happens to them they just run off
granite marsh
Excited for Customs additions, terrified for the Grenade Launcher
dark maple
High ttk is good for casual games but lame for "hardcore"
all good though I'll just focus on headshots I guess, just feels really silly to use a sniper when you can't one shot an armored guy in the chest.
tender swallow
You definitely can big brain
dark maple
might as well just bring an ak with bs to snipe with
tender swallow
Armor is the investment here, making it more valuable with this change
dark maple
armor shouldn't stop you from a sniper IMO but whatever
I'd rather just see more hardcore punishments for being shot but not killed
I can put half a dozen sniper rounds into you and you're running around jumping / shooting like nothing happened lmao
very hardcore
tender swallow
Irl class 6 stops like everything soooo
meager finch
well Nikita just said, there is a Lvl6 armor in russia that basically stops everything and they won't not include it ... he says they don't wanna be as realistic as possible, but realistic as playable
😄
tender swallow
Class 5 will stop all most everything but the highest class ap rounds
dark maple
As long as I can one tap anyone in the head I'll get over it just don't like health being added to the chest is all.

will i get banned for using a vpn?

I just know a lot of people use them but I'm not certain I guess
If u get banned for it i'll paypal u $4
feral yew
mmm that will repay a eod account XD
also im still tryna find out why they blocked my ip
and the vpn was the way around
dark maple
lol but yeah nothing against it in the TOS I can find either but you can read it yosalf
feral yew
can you link me the tos @dark maple
dark maple
@tender swallow also damage is reduced when you pass armor so 86 might not be enough even through level 4 right?
tender swallow
Depends on durability I think
You may be correct about that though, most class 4 will stop it by that sense but only barely. It should be like that imo tho, it makes it so any other shot (other than legs) with that ammo will result in a two shot kill. Fine with me
dark maple
arm + stomach will kill?
tender swallow
No, cheast+arm/stomach would im pretty sure
hollow heart
Are the servers really slow now or is it just me?

Well when you are a solo and gotta fight groups it's really frustrating when it's an unrealistic amount of shots to kill each one.
by the time you kill one the others have had all day to return fire.

So looking at the new customs images from the trailer, it looks like RUAF roadblock might be moving? If my orientations right it looks like some form of bus stand / station goes at least close it if not right back onto it
hmm maybe not, different picture looks like there might be a wall there
although, im pretty sure i see the tank so maybe the wall is passable. gonna be pretty interesting to have customs not be a weird shape anymore
queen marsh
If you dont wanna see the trailer, or havent the below image is a spoiler but yeah this is what im getting at:
and if RUAF is moved back, does that mean we have more river? and more crossings? probably just lines up with the wall thats by railroad to tarkov though

The way the train tracks move, it looks like youll be able to access the new areas by using the train tracks from factory and presumably all the way around to the train bridge by new gas. But not sure.
that might be closed off as it might make it to easy to move in and out of

because of possible RMT ... but Nikita said yesterday in stream, that it is not about the "i give my friend his loadout back that he lost last round" or something, but more the permanent transfer of stuff that would be similar to RMT
and @scenic gyro welcome to Tarkov ... you will never get shot if you jump around naked with a shit gun on broad daylight whilst you hear shots 10m away from you in all directions ... but you will ofc die, if you go the most action avoiding route to safely extract whilst beeing extremly heavy loaded ...

first of all not new lol, secondly i wasn't going to action or a safe extract
i had finished fighting and moved to a bathroom to heal far from the map and then like 2 minutes of complete silence later im hs through a wall
and i wasnt heavy either
meager finch
well i just wanted to make clear when you get shot and when not 😄
the moment you are heavy loaded, ppl and scav player smell your load 50 miles away and head to your direction, even if you don#t move for 15min

hey i have a problem i only make like 200-300k a day that is probably not enough i have a dozen of keys all good keys for shoreline all good keys for interchange and some for customs too but most of the time i am too scared to actually go in alone i mostly just play with an friend so in the time i could do 30 runs a day i only do like 7 or so any idea on how i can improve that ? and make some money cause well like i said i am mostly just too scared to actually try to loot marked room or shoreline etc alone
maybe some safe way to loot resort or something like that or maybe some tips so that i dont die every time i try to loot anything

Just go in and take risks and sometimes u get out and sometimes u dont, u will just be stuck like this if u dont ever take risks

run that and you will for sure make progress

should i maybe just loot one floor ? like when i wanna loot 222 on east wing should i only loot the second floor ? so i dont loose time with the other rooms
i mean west wing
inner karma
Personally i dont run shoreline bc its boring but i would suggest looting the rooms that are missed a lot
if u want to get better at the game, then fight pmcs and scavs and dont be afraid of them
ashen folio
yeah you´r right
ashen folio
and with what kind of things do you guys make money ? do you try to get rare items that cost alot or do you take anything you get and in the end it summs up or what ?
inner karma
I go labs so i farm raiders and kill pmcs, thats how i make my money, attacthments,meds,ammo,helmets. Sometimes i go interchange for tech items
ashen folio
oh yeah im not that far yet i have never been on labs not even on reserve xD i have to rely on things like shoreline locked rooms etc
inner karma
what level are you?
shadow spire
2nd floor shoreline is where most loot is, pop up to third for ledx/tech spawns, pop down to 1st for keycards/meds. Play maps till you have a feel for the flow of players/squads throughout the map, adjust tactics based on spawn and the other players you encounter.
Average your kit cost against your SR% and adjust to maximize stable profit.
inner karma
listen to him^^^^^^ @ashen folio
shadow spire
If you're on a gear losing streak, consider running a zero to hero or scav to jog you into playing differently
When going after quest objectives or hunting bosses can always run offline for a few rounds to get familiar with routes/locations to your objective or boss spawns/behavior
ashen folio
alright good info thank you what should be the max cost for my kits at the moment ?
chilly radish
Anyone got a ledx that isnt fir ill pay a bit more than therapist since it could be useless
shadow spire
Fighting a squad as solo, wait to engage, try to pick off the heavist geared guy first
what's your SR right now?
and your average haul on a successful shoreline
ashen folio
i just had that with an friend earlier i only had an five seven shot the m4 guy and the other one sadly the 3rd guy got me
shadow spire
then divide the haul by your sr and that's your kit cost
ashen folio
what's your SR right now?
@shadow spire whats the sr again ?
shadow spire
survival rating
ashen folio
marauder it says
shadow spire
If you run a 100k kit and survive 25% of your raids, but average 400k on the survived raids, then you're breaking even
don't bother with calculations for fun /quest specific loadouts
ashen folio
so u mean when i make 400k an average ?
shadow spire
but for making profit try to get your kit into a sweetspot that matches your average loot load spread across your SR%
yeah, it varies from player to player and also map to map, but that's the general guidelines most people follow, even as they begin to run higher tier gear
they're averaging the gears cost over the number of raids they'll likely survive and the loot they'll secure with those raids and aiming for a net gain
That's why Zero to hero and Scavs can be good mental resets, as they require playing with a minimal gearset, and help you hone your focus on what gear matters most to your playstyle
ashen folio
but what do i do when most of the time i /die/find nothing of worth/ rooms are looted
ah i always only play with am hunter or an pistol i didnt do an geared run since weeks
dapper vector
i love going to shoreline with gear and spiking from 66 ping to 400 for a split second and die
many fun
ashen folio
uh i had that earlier today on interchange
ashen folio
rip internet
shadow spire
if rooms are looted then you're arriving late, focus on another loot route until you get a good resort spawn
only sprint when in active combat or when you have confident map knowledge and aren't expecting opponents nearby
ashen folio
so when i have an bad spawn should i rather go to the extract and loot stashes etc on the way ?
shadow spire
yeah, go for safes at cottages or pier, hit jackets in village, stashes, Hep station key
ashen folio
ahh cause most of the time i still went to resort and either dies or found the empty things that were left behind
dapper vector
i always get there with sj6
but i just dcd twice and then while going for 301 west wing i start taking damage and die
out of nowhere
shadow spire
yeah, much easier with a duo/trio, very hard to loot and keep a lookout for rats as solo, until your map knowledge and softskills like perception are leveled to bat like hearing
dapper vector
not that i have really bad internet it just spiked to 400 for a split sec
shadow spire
yeah, I get that with some servers, where the route from my ISP just hits a bad gateway or QOS queue outside my local network @dapper vector
ashen folio
and one more thing when i go to the resort and hear the good old brrrrrrrrr should i leave or try to kick their asses with my BT/BP ak ?
dapper vector
bt you should go for faceshield unless they have lvl 4 armor
bp is dogshit this far into wipe
shadow spire
you should always take fights in which you have the advantage
ashen folio
bp is dogshit this far into wipe
@dapper vector what else should i use ?
shadow spire
if you're sneaky and it sounds like they're charging your way, setup in a good spot with clean retreat routes and wait to pop them, but I wouldn't go charging up to them as you'll likely be at a disadvantage
ashen folio
i have like 200k rn and most ammo is a little to much for me
dapper vector
what lvl are u
ashen folio
24
dapper vector
been there
i just got 3 gpus on shoreline earlier
ran to resort and noone was there, got to open every key
shadow spire
you can pack the lower half of your mags with bp and top load the good stuff to save on ammo costs, great if you're good at tapping heads
shadow spire
the best you can effectively afford/stockpile, scav/pistol reserve for ez BT/BS rounds
ashen folio
uh im not good at headshots at all xD
shadow spire
when fighting a squad out in the open /not indoors/ avoid repeeking the same angle
ashen folio
i just died to that like 5 times last 2 days
shadow spire
If you keep switching up your position they lose an intel advantage
and EFT has pretty decent peekers advantage, so as long as your popping out to challenge from a fresh spot each time, you'll be back into cover before they can adjust their aim most of the time
ashen folio
oh and with my ak should i even try to loot ultra medical or not ? i mean sometimes power is not on till mid raid so i might be able to sneak there and camp til the power is on ? or should i just keep away from that map ?
shadow spire
interchange is a soundwhore's heaven, if you're comfortable with interior combat it's a valid strat, but like most high value loot locations it's quite likely you'll encounter opponents with the same objective
ashen folio
so i should stick with shoreline and customs ? for now
shadow spire
I'd run your scavs on interchange and reserves
and maybe focus on reshala hunting when on customs, reshala guard have health pools/equipment that'll be similar to fighting geared PMCs
ashen folio
oh man i never been on reserve once
shadow spire
it's super friendly for scavs, as scavs get the easiest extracts
and there's plentiful BT and BS rounds all over the map that never get looted
ashen folio
but im not the only one that wants to kill reshala isnt he a pretty public target that everyone wants ? i mean also in dorms
shadow spire
yeah, then you can 3rd party other squads while they're occupied with reshala
ashen folio
right
shadow spire
you can always rotate off and hold back if things get too spicy
ashen folio
well thanks for all the tips im gonna try them out when i beginn playing tommorow ill tell you if i get better with it 😛
shadow spire
a lot of success is knowing when to push in and guaging where squads may likely be based on common routes and raid time
and that all comes with practice, hoping the best for yah and don't sleep on reserve, you'll get wrecked but it's a scav money maker
ashen folio
thanks
meager finch
@shadow spire just red your tip about engaging squads ... wouldn't it be tactically better to take the easiest kill first? it takes away firepower since the heaviest guy is usually the slowest in terms of movement. And the faster you kill, the harder for them to adjust. If you put too much time and firepower into one guy that tanks alot, the others can adjust much faster whilst you#re still focused one the same one
shadow spire
Use your judgement based on the situation, if I see a 3 man with two penis helms and one guy with an exfil. I'm going to wait for a shot where I can reliably drop the exfil and take my chances against the other two. I'm not going to try to initiate a fight without high certainty that I'll drop my first target and have reliable cover/flanking routes open to me.
I tend to get a lot of headtaps and top load high pen ammo, so in those scenarios I'm transitioning to a spraydown only if suppression is needed or the situation calls for it.
The general idea is that the heaviest geared player is likely the highest leveled/most skilled. Not always the case, but often dropping the most geared will toss the remaining squad mates into chaos. You might get one who turns to challenge, but stand still to do it, another easy taps. Or one who runs in a straight line away, also easy to pickoff. If they begin laying down suppressive fire/nades, I'll likely rotate off and find another angle with view of the body and general area.
It's similar to boss/mob fights in other games, you want to get the high dps opponents out of play, even if that means leaving a couple squishier targets alive while dealing with the larger threats.
But yeah, if I'm running on a scav or undergeared for a situation I find myself in, I will certainly take the easy kills on lower geared PMCs to sow chaos and then flank/rotate to try and get more shots in once I regain an advantage on the situation.
Sometime that also may mean passing up an easy kill entirely, as the rest of the fight would have been at too much of a disadvantage and not worth the risk.
meager finch
well maybe in the far future i might consider attacking multiple people 😄 atm usually even one alone is fully prepared and takes me down, or even if they are super surprised my recoil seems too high and my bullets spread around him, and not into him ... checked last time from 25 bullets, only 11 hit
shadow spire
yeah, recoil can be devastating without modding to under 80 vertical and the way softskills add to recoil reduction, the spray stabilizes during mag dumps, that's one reason why 60 rnd mags are so popular
meager finch
trying out an MP5 atm, lets see how that works
shadow spire
if you get a chance the sa-58 and m1a are great semi auto's that put out mad damage and are good for taking down pmcs. you just tap fire center mass
and with high recoil aks, short burst may be more effective for you currently, plus when using short bursts you'll likely have rounds to spare when your opponent goes to reload
meager finch
i do own 2 sa-58 basically 2 of my most precious guns 😄 i only took it out once ... cannot risk it atm
i think i just won a 2vs1 ... not sure yet 😄

the game really hates me ... gives my scav a 3x3 backpack and puts a large gas canister and a motor into the first stash just to tell me "haha you won't get all that"
vapid basalt
I would have been happy to take that gas, screw the motor
meager finch
i took the gas ofc
but if you have no backpack or super small, all the stashes are full
if you have a normal sized backpack, everything is already looted
sorry "No-Brain" ... hope you insured your stuff, dumbed it in a dark corner 🙂 lvl4 not gonna take your stuff

Hey could anyone help me out - do I need to do Mentor (turn 50k euro to peacekeeper) for kappa?

I love people who camp in corners with Igolnik rounds and altyn's on Customs
crystal oxide
I just got 1 tapped, full health, with buckshot, by AI scav, through a window, while inside the little short cut house in Customs. The buck shot collateralled through my arm to my face.
vast quest
Customs is so much fun, especially when you start a wipe late and are stuck with a Shotgun with slugs when everyone you run into are using RPK's rip. I was just trying to get quests done

halcyon oriole
offering 2 bit coins for each death to cheese shooter born in haeven
brittle violet
@halcyon oriole can you actually cheese it? i heard friendly pmc kills dont count towards a different quest idk if thats even true lmao
solid ledge
why can't you buy 5.45 BS from prapor anymore, even after the bug was fixed?
ashen folio
@halcyon oriole ah man, don't cheese the quest, it's one of the best quests in game
Is it tedious? Is it annoying? Yes. Does it teach you how to become an expert marksman? Yes. Does it feel fucking awesome to do it? Yes.
deft rose
shooter born in heaven makes you a better player so don't wuss out
meager finch
what is the goal of that quest?
deft rose
3 100 metre headshots on PMCs in Customs, Interchange, Woods, Shoreline (12K total)
stone badger
If anyone has a shroud mask on their scav, pls message me! I'll give you something in return (Up to non found in raid ledx)
meager finch
funny when you make a scav round, survive, hav ealot of stuff and start sorting it in your stash. Once you done and your stash is clean, you can go again with your scav, as it took you so long to sell, and sort out everything and place it where it belongs 😄
ashen folio
Shooter born in heaven is cancer. Hate the interchange challenge.. If u die to extract camper on EU, might be me and my thermal
deft rose
you dont need a thermal for shooter 
ashen folio
@deft rose Just want to get done fast, hate camping 😦
vestal stirrup
why do you think you can only get kills on extract, from idea side to techlight is about 200m, and you can get a lot of people there rushing ultra
west bluff
what the hell is wrong with the game lately, just today i've encountered 3 confirmed hackers in 3 different raids back to back, and also huge desync or something dying from and out of nothing with no sounds or signs of enemy presence whatsoever :(
