[steep elm]

isn't that the mod that adds in artifact or element based ammo?

[lethal steeple]

the issue i've always taken with artigrok is that it's still just gbo

yes it has artiballs gimmick ammo but it's still gbo levels of bad

better, yes of course, but a polished turd is still a piece of turd

[blissful ivy]

yeah

yeah thats nice momo, i just like my funny ammo

[lethal steeple]

you could just use the regular artiballs

for a more moddable foundation too

[harsh kraken]

love it when i save just before walking over to slime one of my toppers targets and reload only to find out hes teleported to the other end of jupiter for no fucking reason

[lethal steeple]

instead of having to get an infinitely expanding chain of patches for the patches for the patches for the patches for compatibility with the patches for the patches for the mod

[blissful ivy]

maybe, but this is faster for me because i dont add mods that build off it

[steep elm]

The Zone has many doors, stalker boy

[blissful ivy]

im simple and too lazy for all that

[lethal steeple]

because everything still relies on gbo being one huge function instead of being broken up into functional parts

[steep elm]

ok that sounds like hell

[lethal steeple]

modular gbo is a project so small i'm surprised people haven't done yet

i've joked about holding it at ransom

[blissful ivy]

i mean my personal mods consist of literally weapon mods, QoL, a few additions here and there, and artigrok

[lethal steeple]

but like come on

[blissful ivy]

and black road

thats it

[lethal steeple]

splitting gbo up would be far easier than doing anything with it

[wide fable]

That was an ugly mess to arrive to.

Hand grenades well spent.

[steep elm]

Mmmmm, roasted pork

[wide fable]

The Chimera Hunter is a piece of shit.

It consistently performs worse than basically any other gun against mutants.

[rose musk]

Now hear me out

shoot a bandit with it

that will cheer you up

[wide fable]

Counter to its purpose,and I already bagged a few Renegades with it.

The Chimera Hunter is just ass.

[sharp schooner]

wait

wdym 50 damage

thats the same as my ak12

i mean its an mp7 to be fair

[steep elm]

Hog needs some heart

[vital nova]

Dog heart for Hog

[last mesa]

Hog hogging dog heart

[last mesa]

What round you even use

Usually yeah any pellets shit are nearly worthless because most fucker has mid tier armor layout

Best you could do is stick it up their face

[wide fable]

Barrikada on Snorks,Lurkers,and swine.

[last mesa]

And limbs for most stalker will take less damage

For you too

[wide fable]

It instagibbed some lowbie Renegades when I hit them in the elbows.

[last mesa]

Yeah.

Hit head

[blissful ivy]

the chimmy hunter is fine

[last mesa]

Or body shot

[blissful ivy]

you just need to use shraps on mutants

cant use barrikada

its so bad

on mutants

its good on all stalkers

epitome of "Nyet, gun is fine, operator is issue"

[wide fable]

Aah,finally patched the kit up.

Next stop: Artefacts.

[thick sedge]

what kinda backpack is that bruh

[wide fable]

It's from Backpacks of the Zone.

[sick yoke]

the good old realization that an absolute ton of guns have the exact same base damage

[steep elm]

Reminds me, I should probably grab that one again.

It's so nice because I'm the Zone's biggest packrat/hoarder.

[wide fable]

I filled up a seven hundred kilo trunk with weapon attachments,upgrade kits,repair kits,and weapon and armour parts.

[steep elm]

yeah

[lethal steeple]

yeah but why is it showing the base damage tho

[sick yoke]

modded

[wide fable]

...I installed night vision on my binocs. None of the usual suspects for controlling it (=,N,and L) are toggling it. Can I toggle it?

[sick yoke]

probably artigrok

[sharp schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/there-is-no-hope-there-is-no-hope-gif-13610811744268717441

[wide fable]

And there we go. Upgrades applied,as best as I can (currently) manage.
...Maybe I should make some more kits.

[hollow shard]

Just finished raiding the brainscorcher

Pretty neat guns, but most importantly I got a perfect Chimera hide from some freaky Wendigo looking mutant

I was pretty unlucky with armour drops though, not much useful for me

[wide fable]

Chimera Hide is very pleasant.

[hollow shard]

I thankfully had a bunch of artifacts stocked up to shore up my abysmal bullet protection

[wide fable]

Time to figure out an artefact loadout. Objective: Endure bullets,control bleeding. I'm gearing up for the Scorcher.

[hollow shard]

And the G28 is a beauty, it pops heads so flawlessly

[wide fable]

Like overripe melons?

[hollow shard]

Not quite that explosive, more like poking holes into a pie's dough

[wide fable]

My stats with just my suit,helm,and 99% Chimera Pelt.

This feels good.

[vital nova]

https://tenor.com/view/there-is-always-bunny-hope-gif-5208531917248618827

[sharp schooner]

wrong

[hollow shard]

How do you read these resistance stats ? is the number on the left the actual damage reduction ? Then what is the percentage on the right ?

[blissful ivy]

the right is the maximum

X number/X maximum number

[hollow shard]

Ah, I see. Thanks

[blissful ivy]

once you figure it out, you wonder how you didnt figure it out earlier

[wide fable]

Time for some mad science.

Oh,right,I also need meat.

To the fridge!

[hollow shard]

I'm guessing the max can only be increased via drugs or artefacts ?

[blissful ivy]

artifacts

drugs do nothing

just add to the left number

[hollow shard]

[blissful ivy]

im too lazy to explain further than that, you will have to learn the rest

[wide fable]

Left = Current.
Right = Maximum.
Only way to improve maximum is via artefacts.

Hmm... the Wrenched is an excellent defensive artefact,but impairs bleed control.
It's a start...

[idle kelp]

Bleed control is no issue at all as long as you carry tourniquets and they're pretty cheap

Just don't be like me and forget to pack them to Red Forest while also forgetting I can just take off the bleedin artifacts if I'm struggling to stop the blood loss

And lose an incredible invictus run to a slip of the mind like so

[hollow shard]

Yeah, with how easy tourniquets are to make, bleed control is barely an issue

[wide fable]

'Ere we are.

Ain't the best,but it'll do,I think.

If I need to dive into a chem hazard,the Crystal's coming off.

How would you rate my chances at the Scorcher?

[blissful ivy]

99%

if you fail, skill issue

big time

because you can do it with like 30% ballistic

just gotta take it a little more carefully

but with 44% and 57% respectively, youre fine

slap morphine on that and youre set

[wide fable]

My armaments: AKMS,and Vector. And... probably more grenades than I need,to be frank.

[blissful ivy]

AKMS? thats enough

could be better tho

if you have a 5.45 or 5.56 it might be better for optics and cheaper ammo

and better recoil control

but up to you

your armaments not mine

[wide fable]

I actually intentionally stepped up from 5.45 to 7.62*39 for the extra grunt.

I default to short controlled bursts,so it's not like the extra kick matters much.

[blissful ivy]

i prefer 5.45

lighter, easier to get lots of

and you can just use HP

instead of a dedicated mutant gun

its also got really good HP stats

Huh. This zed was ISG.

Probs caught up in a emission ig.

[celest zinc]

bandits can disguise?

[sick yoke]

@celest sparrow LOL I DIED TO SCRIPTED PORTAL

but i have a hypercube spawn :)

[hard crown]

Guys what is the best b tier guns? Rn i got a mosin and a double barrel shotgun. As side i got a 45 acp pistol semiauto.

Are the*

Just found a pu scope and a silencer for the mosin.

But i m down to my last life☠️

[rose musk]

there's so many idk if you can call a "best B tier"

[wide fable]

Really fucking annoying that Cutter and Polymer,the two Loners in charge of the Mill outpost in Darkscape,seem to always spawn over on the Bald Mountain Anomaly,and slowly walk towards their post.

[rose musk]

granted the hornet outclasses all B tier guns

by a mile

[wide fable]

Every single time you enter the area.

[rose musk]

https://tenor.com/view/esaigivens-eguap-glockswitch-gif-3919150092478434007

[hard crown]

I see but what re some grrat common to find options.

Great*

[wide fable]

Okay,not the Bald Mountain Amonaly,that's to the South. But the hill to the East of their post,by the road.

[hard crown]

Great*

[wide fable]

Any shotgun with more than two shots to its name.
An SKS,be it normal or Molot.

[mild gale]

So uhhh do you ever just not get hurt by Psy fields or do you just get to a point where you take minimal damage possible

[hard crown]

Even the shortie ithaca? The one with 4 round mag? I feel like that one is worthless if u are more than 5 meters away.

I have that kne in stash. Just need to repair it.

[hard crown]

What if i run an sks and a mosin? Is that a bad idea?

[wide fable]

Shotguns here have actually semi-reasonable range. Buckshot has decent hit probability,and damage,at longer than ten meters.

As for using an SKS and Mosin at once? Eeh,considering the typical engagement distances,unless you need Fuck You Damage,the SKS is the more practical option more often than not.

But,if you positively need to decapitate a well-armoured human? The Mosin,with the right ammo,will serve you well.

[barren cobalt]

im gonna

crash the mother fuckin out

why the hell is MM suddenly 1000x harder then when ive done it in the past

ill run the same gun at the same condition to get 30 kills

no jam

the moment i step in that god damn lab its 3 or 4 jams a mag

no matter the gun

[blissful ivy]

did you turn on the jam patch in MO2?

if not, thats the issue

because it allows guns to jam at 100% part conditions

(lame)

[blissful ivy]

let me put an example here

MP-43, one of juans guns, buckshot, from roof of flea market

all the way

to that anomaly by the dark valley transition point

thats like easily 120 ingame meters

or something idk

its a big distance for buckshot

[wide fable]

Reliable and meaningful hits at that distance?

[blissful ivy]

yes

2 headshots on one bandit

[wide fable]

Dadgum.

[blissful ivy]

killed him

ofc no helmet

but like still

thats a pretty far range

[wide fable]

It's still an illustration of the reliability of buckshot.

[blissful ivy]

but its not guaranteed to 2 shot

[wide fable]

This ain't Cock of Shit.

[blissful ivy]

sometimes it takes 3-4

just possible to get a 2 shot or even a 1 shot

if youre real lucky

but yeah the maximum effective range is like 60m

which is quite reasonable

compared to like... any of the mainline games

where anywhere past 10 inches is nothing

[wide fable]

Somethin' ain't right,here...

that one mama's beads was the original one or something

[mental furnace]

someone increased xp gain multiplier for finding artefacts

[lost bridge]

Wow

[north gale]

i did not

[mental furnace]

i never got more then 300-400 xp for finding artefacts

[north gale]

yeah i dont know man

i do have a thing for boosting the XP from artifacts but like

not that much

[mental furnace]

[north gale]

i've just been tossing gems at it

[mental furnace]

meanwhile me

[north gale]

i did find this though

i can't equip it yet without breaking one of my other ones

or atleast it doesn't let me swap

oh

i just doubleclick

..

[mental furnace]

u need this gem for gordon ramsey build

[north gale]

but my other one's pretty okay anyway, tasks give out a good deal of XP

[north gale]

you got the gordon ramsey perk too? purified food sells for a good deal of dosh ngl

[celest sparrow]

i swear from the amount of times I used to play with the RPG Framework, I've never gotten something good out of these

[mental furnace]

nah its useless to me cause im at war with EVERY faction

i mean at 0 they do notjin you gotta upgrade them to +1

[mental furnace]

well 50% cheaper fuel is nice?

[celest sparrow]

I've never seen a fucking Mythical tho

[mental furnace]

i cant trade like at all

[celest sparrow]

I think I've only seen a singular purple gem

[north gale]

this is probably pretty meta with generators

for recharging exos

[north gale]

Oh black road

i should use that for next run perhaps

[mental furnace]

i made it to sarcophagus

[celest sparrow]

I should do Black Road after I'm done with S2

[lament charm]

since when did enemies start dropping usable weapons?

[north gale]

it's just luck

[lament charm]

its been like 200 hrs vro

[north gale]

enemies can drop green barrel guns

rarely

which is bare minimum for fully usable before you can get their kit

speaking of artifacts and the RPG system though

the artifact finders questline for the ecos gives you both artifact xp and story quest XP at the same time

which I didnt know abt

so that's some huge XP gains

[unborn wadi]

bro when i got a green barrel sr2m earlier i was like

“my run is set”

[north gale]

Y'know what if canted thermal 1x

oh the echo thermal sight is 159k 😭

I don't think it works like that

Decided to install mags.
And much to my pleasant surprise,Vector mags are classed as small.

[wide fable]

Wasn't the SPAS-12 unpopular in reality due to,in part,its weight?

The whole dual mode mechanism was both expensive and heavy,on top of a (largely) solid steel weapon?

god how did you guys get a KS-23M already smh gimme one

what would a smart fella do

[wide fable]

Rock n' roll would be the smart option,if your weapon's capable. Burst will do without.

Semi auto is only if you're a fucking deadeye.

Especially with Suckers.

In my experience,2-5 shots of .45 Hydra can drop a Sucker.

Assuming centre mass and headshots.

Thanks gamer

[mental furnace]

i love that projections spawns and instantly yelling MEN DONT SHOOT

[mild wing]

yeah the voices took me by surprise too

they're basically replicated story characters

[latent turret]

first time i did motz i shot the projection and softlocked myself

[mild wing]

plus there were some random monoliths crawling up the reactor ladder because i didn't clear the CNPP before

gonna do it the next time

[mental furnace]

i got random duty and military and sarcophagus and i think i saw a merc there got shooted by projection

[mild wing]

nope

perfect

Couldnt remember if I needed ammo for them or not.

[mild wing]

they don't even need functional parts

[mental furnace]

literally hologramm was carrying 2 guitars that the joke

[muted iris]

I could have sworn they have jams and malfunctions if you gave them broken guns or parts

Or was that changed?

[mild wing]

haven't done this in a while but whenever i am on the MS questline in limansk i just toss every PKM to the small army that spawns in the beginning

bad parts never stopped them from shredding

[rose musk]

do they struggle with jams and super long reload times

oh shit really?

banger strat

[mild wing]

but then again, i haven't done it in a long while

[muted iris]

I remember last time I played some of my companions wouldnt shoot due to broken guns

[mild wing]

these days i just send them to die

[rose musk]

if it was fun grok has probably ball kicked it by now

[muted iris]

well time to send hip into radar when I have stalker population and variance high. xD Last time I did a radar run there were over 60 monolith there. lets hope there isnt too many this time.

What people really mean when they say they want to put your head through a wall

[wide fable]

Do ISG personnel body bomb themselves if you approach while they're downed?

Or is that just Monolith?

[lethal patrol]

just monos

[wide fable]

Just the rock-lickers,eh? Fair.

I personally think it'd make sense for ISG personnel to body bomb themselves.

Since the foundation of their operational procedures is to ensure no witnesses and no trace.

[mental furnace]

there were duty and mercs too in sarcophagus

Yes.

but

@celest sparrow liquid rock on master mode 👍

[wide fable]

So,basically,I gotta hit up every lab in the Zone,find docs in all of them,and hand 'em off to the Colonel in Agroprom?

[mental furnace]

i figured it out

[mental furnace]

well thats it for tohkha cracker bye legend

[rose musk]

what a legend

[mental furnace]

he was hated by everyone but still he won in the end

[rose musk]

was that an ironman or did you just send it

[wide fable]

Legend in twelve days is *wild,*yo.

[mental furnace]

ye

[rose musk]

Jesus

[mental furnace]

it was really hard but i didnt got military at x-18 entrance which was godsend to get first gun

[lethal patrol]

time to have fun with rsh

[rose musk]

another dumb question was it black road or whatever that mod is

or just regular renegade

[mental furnace]

black road with isolated and hated

[rose musk]

ungodly

that's my next plan after I do the ultimate gamba

[mental furnace]

i was living half of playtime on cordon

and got armor and guns for bs in there

[rose musk]

Yeah i'd imagine you can't do shit until you luck into some decent shit

was keeping up with cheeki's playthrough a little bit and he was just floating in the garbage for like 4 hours

not able to do shit

no traders is brutal tho that's gonna change how I play a ton

[quasi python]

guys

what questlines are availble to UNISG

?

[rose musk]

the UNISG one

think that's it

[quasi python]

is it good? also saw somthing about it being bugged?

[rose musk]

I think it's mostly going into labs to get documents

haven't done it personally

[mental furnace]

[mental furnace]

darkscape>dead city>jupiter>jupiter undergrond> then all labs in game

[languid oak]

It's a nice little story. The main task is to expose the atrocities.

[gloomy rose]

If you turn story mode off, you can go north right away without having to turn of BS and MM right?

[rose musk]

those ISG stashes hit tho

[mental furnace]

ye

[gloomy rose]

Do I still need to pick up a psyhelmet?

[random grail]

No

[gloomy rose]

nice, ty

[quasi python]

I just dont wanna start a UNISG run and then the big gamba update come out

ive also never done a military run

[sharp schooner]

W artefact

it goes hard.

[rose musk]

poor guy

[quasi python]

does the disuise stuff work right or is it janky?

cus i wanna try and make ecos my friends as UNISG cus i need the artifact smelter

[random grail]

It works

And melter isn't goodwill locked

Same as recipes

[scenic trench]

burn it 🔥
he's mutating into a fracture

[languid oak]

Disguise works very well as UNISG. You have to use this mechanism to make reasonable progress. Back then, I disguised myself as a loner.

[quasi python]

so unisg has to rely mainly on crafting? if i use disguise can i buy stuff rom other faction traders?

[hollow wadi]

It works well when it works
But you can get caught very easily, and some maps require you to basically leave and re-enter to re-disguise

[hollow wadi]

Yes, easily

[languid oak]

yes

[thin orchid]

you'll be friendly to mercs though

[prime wadi]

What was the key to see stats for equipment at 100%?

[hollow wadi]

But if you ever accidentally pull grenade out, or have your gun out too long, or reload where they can see you, or your disguise is too damaged, they catch on

[languid oak]

You must have the highest possible armor of a faction, it must be repaired, and keep your distance. Never walk around with a weapon.

[hollow wadi]

Hold Ctrl before hovering over the item

[wide fable]

Mercs and Bandits are friendly with eachother,right?

[hollow wadi]

Ye

[junior fiber]

how do I turn off tooltips again?

[hollow wadi]

Doesn't have to be, but having good armour you can disguise with is a bonus

[prime wadi]

Thank you!

[rose musk]

if you walk in with a 10% durability suit they are gonna shoot you on sight

[granite matrix]

Is the snow in Dreski's new video a mod in gamma now or is that a thing he has

[languid oak]

That's what I wanted to say, but my English isn't very good. The higher the better, and the better the condition, the lower the chance of being caught 😄

[quasi python]

so the ghillie suit says faction unkown, can i use it as a disquise if i put a faction patch on it?

[plucky furnace]

No you need a faction specific armor for that

[rose musk]

I don't use inverno because I like how it looks I use inverno for the performance boost of obliterating all grass

happy holidays stalkers

i think next playthough is gonna be normal black road without isolated and hated

but will it bring you the same rush

will you catch the dragon

thought black road had that by default?

[mental furnace]

[mental furnace]

bro i just wanna chill

uhm sorry since when do 2 beurers spawn in MM during the quest? (before even disabling it)

[hexed pelican]

huh, wonder if this is why so many youtubers use it

Doesn't matter when. What matters is that they do now.

Adapt.

I'm glad I brought a Glock 19 Hornet and heaps of 9*19mm HP.

[quasi grove]

well i have that too

[spare musk]

this is default gamma unmoded

probably just a tooltip error

[celest sparrow]

it is just a visual bug

[mental furnace]

which faction to pick for LL questline

[quasi python]

what is LL

[mental furnace]

living legend

normal storymode questline

send a freedom hornet start

Four Geists and a Burer,in the same space,at the bottom of X-18.

bah who cares, buddy prolly went to drop condition

[rose musk]

[blissful ivy]

and i dont blame him XD

wait

is that a professional?

[rose musk]

the loadout just looks hilarious

[blissful ivy]

wait

[mental furnace]

black road gives random loadout so its freedom or loners then

[blissful ivy]

no its a uhh fucking expert?

or veteran

[rose musk]

oh right forgot about that

[blissful ivy]

WAIT A MINUTE

[rose musk]

freedom could be funny

[blissful ivy]

thats a veteran

thats not even close to fair

[rose musk]

since no rostok

[lavish lynx]

[blissful ivy]

i can understand helmets at 65% on legends and masters

BUT ON VETERANS?

way too easy

barely even effort

[rose musk]

this guy went crazy with the sliders

[mental furnace]

if i get randomed with hornet its ggs

[blissful ivy]

thats not even 65, its 75 too

65% is the bare minimum for repairing without kits

and thats 75% on a vet

crazy

[lavish lynx]

my logic? A master aint gonna have shit condition gear

its 65-75% for Vet

[rose musk]

tweaks settings to drop 75%+ loot what a good find

[lavish lynx]

so i got lucky ig

[blissful ivy]

ok so veteran isnt a master

veterans should have 45-50% gear

[rose musk]

another point to why lootboxes is ethical cheating

[blissful ivy]

none of the stalkers below master or legend can have repairable items

unless i have an armor kit

it just makes sense

[quasi python]

time to do my first monolith run! f unisg

p90 in melee slot, knife in vision slot, and the binoculars in between my asscheeks apparently

just use free zoom lol

they can

i think

welp i'm looking at one

if there is one, its just to meet the traders

I'm blind so 20x zoom and target recognision are really good for me
