Trying to bolt action as a late starter feels impossible at this stage of the wipe. 95% of the playerbase are prestiged wearing 5-6 armor. Thorax shots are out of the question which leaves headshots but it feels impossible with the scope FPS drops

Because that's all it will do now. Arena was changed the wipe prior to 1.0 to play completely differently than base tarkov due to the removal of intertia and an utterly moronic rework of the balance. The movement was the same up until then and arena was a decent tool for improving your mechanical skill even with the usually slightly strange balancing. Nikita and his band of fucking apes, I assume, listened to feedback from """pros""" and made arena a more fast paced game to align with """esports"""" play but all it really did was make arena fucking insufferable to actually play.

Technically, yea. We don't even have all the guns and parts available to be painted yet. I'm hoping they go back to how things were, though. At least arena exists as a great example of why everyone that wants intertia to be removed in base tarkov is a stupid faggot.

Small incentive? Friendless incel

>>551668169
It is. Just take it, leveling in 1.0 requires 60% more experience than it did prior to the hardcore wipe and is mind numbing and tedious. Just make sure you get your GZ tasks done before level 21 and you'll be fine.

yeah it kind of kills the character of the game, honestly. i can totally 100% see why bsg added it. maybe this is a dumb comparison, but it makes movement have consequences in the same way soulslike movement has consequences. you have to commit to an option and i like it a lot more than the constant adadadadadadadad of arena

LMFAO whoever that scav was that HAULED ASS from multipel gluhar guards shooting at us just now on reserve, enjoy the free shit I dropped for you.
Guard shot first, i killed him. -0.04 rep for that, but i saved us both at least from death. I hope you got out with a lot, anon scav. I laughed so fucking hard as i saw bullets whizzing past both of our heads as we ran along that barb wire fence.

The recoil reduction of the waffle is additive with the muzzle brake that it screws onto. Any suppressor worth using is like that. It's why the multi-caliber suppressors like the Hybrid fucking suck, they only get the recoil reduction from the suppressor itself because there's no muzzle device, just a thread adapter.

Jesus chriist what a quest. What does mortar fire actually do? I dont think I've ever seen someone use the blue flare
>>
>>551674396
There are trees on interchange and customs too. I got four silvers in one try. Idk what I'm gonna spend them on though
>>
>>551674459
i reckon it 1 shots whoever it drops on

>>551673785
wow you profited a whole 20k
:o
>>
>>551674459
Mortar fire is SICK, you fire the flare into the sky and then a few seconds later mortar volleys will come down. Each volley has like 15 or so shells in 3-shell bursts. The entire strike probably lasts ~45 seconds.

It's loud as fuck and really spooks the entire map. And you're right, it's really rare. That means other pmcs are super spooked of it because they don't really understand it. In reality, the mortar strikes are really weak. I think even a direct hit will just do minor damage and give you a concussion. So you can use this to your advantage, launch a flare then run straight through the mortar strike to advance on someone OR use it to cover your escape. When I had these unlocked I'd be using them all the time in places like resort to cover up my sounds and cause general chaos. The big advantage is putting everyone else in the raid on edge, while you're still calm because you understand what's going on.
>>
>>551674961
i actually have a blue flare and thought it would take as long as an airdrop so i never bothered
is it really a few seconds after firing? Imight bring it out from now one and if i see an oppertunity just light some niggers up

Much faster to start dropping bombs than an airdrop, take it into a practice raid and fire one off to get a feel for it.

This is a pic of some research I did a while back, the circled blue area is the zone where I could see mortar shots landing. So you can see it covers a very wide area. And of course, the entire map can hear that it's going on

there's no bug. aim the flare so that it shoots up in the signal zone, then run the tracks. it's not hard.

The .45 AP buff in arena made the Vector fairly good again. It was unusable trash, I have no idea why they nerfed .45 AP so heavily but then buffed 7n42 to be hilariously overpowered. The SR-2 is still the best overall gun in arena and scout is still way too fucking strong with level 5 plates.

bros, I need help. when you spawn in the bottom left corner of Woods (near Outskirts), what's a good path toward UN Roadblock/extract? I've bene taking the orange path lately, and I often get hit by a sniper on the hill across from USEC camp. When I was a rookie, I went along the yellow path, but that was always a hit-or-miss. I haven't really tried purple/blue paths.
>>
>>551683352
ok but what if I want to see what in it and redeem now
>>
>>551692294
orange or purple is typically my go to

>>551691712
Please go wear helmets in the army, you'll understand.
>>
>>551670310
what? how?
>>
>>551692294
Yellow and blue are borderline suicide, orange is going for a fight
Purple is relatively safe
The real answer is camping near checkpoint then taking the btr to depot
>>551692378
You can redeem the code and the items sit there indefinitely
As a standardchad I have shit there from the start of the wipe
Insurance and twitch drops are different
>>
>>551692294
Your map is outdated.
>I get hit by a sniper across from USEC camp
Yeah there's a spawn there, dummy.
Yellow/blue paths are probably the safest, but the whole middle of the map is pretty dangerous because everyone has to somewhat path through there because they need to fight Shturman, do some quest at the sawmill, or simply cross over to the other side for their extract.

ww2 helmets were like lvl2 armor by today's standards. there's far more metal in today's military helmets than back then. more metal means more heat, because the cold has to penetrate that much more

While I'm not an expert on wearing army helmets, what the fuck would the weight of the helmet matter? Once it's colder than you are (at all times) it'll absorb your heat. If anything, more metal would make it worse

How the fuck would metal keep you warm
It's not like the sun emits "cold rays" that have to penetrate your helmet. Everything around you is just cold

I've done that as a playerscav on interchange near the twin ramps towards Emercom Checkpoint. Fucking hid inbetween some shelves as the most fucking juiced murder squad I'd ever seen in my life, Altyns, couch backpacks, suppressed M4s with T5000s on their backs, fucking decked out like they're gonna rape people in labs came running right past me all in a line.

There's no way they didn't see me. They just didn't care. I had a .366 TKM VEPR.

So when a guy pops up and sees you from about 40m away you...hipfire them? And when you're in a gunfight are you like...ADSing behind cover then leaning out all fucking slow-like? Do you seriously not understand the value in being able to quickly put accurate shots out at the very common 30m-100m engagement range this game has? Because absolutely someone with better ergo than you can easily headshot you if they're given a 0.5s advantage when you both aim at eachother. And I don't believe you're hitting hipfire shots consistently past like 30-40m.

When you're at lvl1 traders you're supposed to generally avoid fights or only camp people out to instant headshot them. If you do kill someone (like you did, gj), you grab their shit asap and book it out of the area because people will be coming to investigate. Just remember that even if you have endgame gear, over 70% of your deaths are going to be from people who instantly clap you from out of no where anyway.

early today I scavved on Woods and came across two pimped as fuck PMC's. I ran around a rock and was just begging them to co-op extract with me but wasn't getting a response. Then I hear a knife swinging, so I pulled mine out and poke my head out and ask if we're doing this thing and one of them just emphatically swings his gun up and down at me, then waves me over with a gesture and points me at a PMC to loot.

THEN he hands me a firework flare, points at the sky and starts shooting, so I pop the flare, we loot the airdrop, and then got out of there together. They never said one word to me but they seemed to be able to hear me.

Money is not hard to get jesus christ you make it sound like it's week one of the wipe and everyone is wearing paca. I don't even know children that greedy.

>>551735689
It's not just the registers, It's Concordia 64, it's TG arsenal, its conc security, it's every fucking key, he snatches something whilst completely silent, then just talks about it after the raid, I bought Chek marked to do my cult quest for story, He silently grabbed Two blue folders and a dogtag case, then tells me at the very end of the raid he took it.

I have a very good win rate in Checkpoint because I cap 1 point at a time and then stay put to successfully hold it solo against a half dozen uncoordinated counter-attacks. Awarding ornaments only for the capture of points and not the defence of points is not a good message to send to players.

It's not remotely that rare to get a good sawmill spawn and Shturman is still a 75% spawn. I killed him like 10 fucking times to farm a red rebel not long after 1.0 started. Hunting Trip is simply not that hard.
>>
An airdrop fell right where glukhars guards were on reserve and they gunned down all of the pscavs nearby. I had 6 rep so I could just walk around and loot them as well as the airdrop. Some other pscav walked up and started talking to me thinking that the coast was clear before one of the guards gunned him down

I'm digging the spooky skellington top for night raids. The puffy jacket is better though. Now we just need black quad nods. Also why the fuck can we still not insure NVGs?
>>
>>551745185
You need to get lucky with your spawn, the weather, fellow PMCs' goals, and you have to hope that Shturman won't decide to shoot you 4 times in the scalp with BT the moment you take a peek. I completed the task last wipe, but it's still a crapshoot.
>>
>>551733631
I just unlocked it yesterday too. Keep in mind woods is a specific sample size of players too. If someone enjoys sniping on woods they are going to unlock it for sure. Simple as

I kind of want to unlock skier's version of the lapua bolt action but not sure if the 9 ergo will be worth it. Bullshit is the hardest quest of all time
>>
>>551745765
You just need to spawn on outskirts side. You don't need a spawn that good. Fog heavy enough to block a 75 meter shot isn't that common, either. Going to sawmill means being aware of enemy PMCs. That doesn't change regardless of your goal. Shturman is also lobotomized. He and his guards are piss easy to kill. I would guess I killed him around 10 times a few weeks ago using the marlin before I got my red rebel. I even shot two PMCs. The worst part of the task is that you're forced to use a piece of shit scope but as a whole it is not some crazy difficult task. I got it done in three tries the last time I did it.

Damn I feel bad, shot a level 3 in interchange as he was looting random crap. Didnt even mean to kill him was aiming legs but bcp too much damage. Now he rage quit for the night even though I added him to drop him gear and say sorry...

>>
>>551746624
Don't think I've ever got him from there but it's mostly because when I see him I happen to be on the Outskirts side.

The first ever kill I got on him was from there. I shot him again like 2 weeks ago from the same spot and iirc it was around 350 meters. He's usually in a shitty spot to kill him from here, though. He likes to sit around the cabins a lot.
>>
>>551746692
Out skirt side is usually where I die to him. I like coming from sniper rock or dickhead rock
>>
>>551746902
I think if you're beyond that big rock by the tent and swampy area you're probably fine.
>>
>>551747083
I think the best way to kill him is either super close range or far range like you said. Mid range = certain death to him and his guards that can flank you

>>551749196
What you could do, and this isn't super fun, is separate out the concerns. Most PMCs will be inside, and most scavs as well unfortunately, but the outside should be relatively uncontested after 5-10 minutes. So you could spend most of the round killing scavs outside and then when you have five minutes left or so rush inside, visit all the stores, kill all the scavs you can, and then either try to hit the basement extract or just eat the MIA after insurance frauding your kit.
>>

Don't worry. I got killed first try at the start of the wipe and had to wait to lvl up Prapor to get another SV-98.

As a scav you're not the one to initiate it so just chase fights until a pmc offers it

Find out if your CPU or your GPU is the bottleneck in performance. Usually it's the CPU, but it's worth checking. From there I unironically put my specs into chat gpt and asked it to help optimize performance. You might have to correct it on a few things along the way, but it actually helped me. That's also where I learned the best budget options for what to upgrade to. Alternatively there's lots of youtube vids for performance, but it's hard to say if they'll help. I'm no computer wiz so I can't just tell you what to enable/disable to magically get you better performance.

Should I bother trying to make one? I need 1 more for Crisis (1 level away) and already did Private Clinic. How long does the event run for and what are the alternatives that I could/should be crafting? The red ones seem to be usable for the AK-308 and 8 white ones give you that new tier 6 rig.

I did it by running the Reserve one, it's around here on the map, you can just bring a big rig and run down the manhole to reset.
>>
>>551820002
Unless you dislike lvl6 armor (for some reason???) that should be the only thing you farm ornaments for. Ledx are nice, but you can find them easily enough by just playing the game and looting. I've found six without intentionally hitting up any ledx spawns. Four were from dufflebags/stashes.
>>
>>551821161
Reserve. Like the other anon said, extract through reserve. Make sure to check the 3 dufflebags in the gym in the barracks (or whatever that building is called), and the 2 dufflebags in the building closest to manhole for possible additional silver ornaments. You might as well also check the computer in the building south of manhole for a ram/gpu since it's right there. And then there are the two dufflebags outside close to the christmas tree. Between those 7 (possible) dufflebags and the computer, it's not a bad pscav raid.
>>
>>551822009
Night interchange on a PMC while you're waiting for pscav cooldown is another good ornament raid. Sneak into the highway and sneak out and extract.

I'm constantly selling T5 armours, t4 helmets, headsets, non flea guns, etc. because I can't afford to keep them whereas on EoD you'd just stockpile them in the 800 extra rows you get
>>
>>551831212
EOD is really restrictive. So much so that I've even looked at buying more rows from the website for more storage.

I'm trying to find three level four armor plates before I activate my Arena trial. Do plates found on armor in a scav raid count towards Surprise?
>>
>>551831368
buddy calls me out for hoarding but when you're no longer tied down by space, it's genuinely disgusting what those unheardy freaks get up to
bro has like 30 guns laying around that he's never going to use
>>551831648
if it has the found in raid checkmark it counts
they're really easy to get, if you have lighthouse just scav that once & it should be enough, but I assume you don't so just scav interchange a few times & check all the bodes in the main hallways, around the christmas tree & the big camp. Shouldn't take more than 2/3 scavs
>>
Goddamn. Glad to find out that I'm not the worst hoarder at least. Got a lot better about that irl too these past few years. I remember cleaning out my grandma's house and that shit was packed
>>
>>551831798
>if it has the found in raid checkmark it counts
I don't see it which is weird considering that it shows up for basic hideout shit like nuts and bolts. Guess it was a deliberate choice by the devs.
>>
>>551831883
Your grandma had a lot of usual things she might have needed to use.
>>
>>551832116
Yeah that's where I got my steel knuckles an old army air corp flight helmet. She had an old collection of pinup girl calendars as well
>>
it's called hoarding when you're poor and have little space it's called being wealthy when you're rich and have enough property, garages, warehouses, rooms, and storage for your stuff. Discrimination imo and why Americans lick the balls of their overlords.

Even dying rushing marked rooms you make a ton of cash. Easy 15 million return on a 2-3 million key.

Anybody have any tricks for the gym mini game? I always mute the sound but is there a trick for which part of the reticle to focus upon?
>>
>>551833069
no I break my arms and miss every single prompt somethings fucked with the input
>>
Incredible. EoD fag chasing a pscav across the map, I hope you enjoy my single energy saving lamp I got from spawning in
>>
>>551833069
someone said to ignore the circle and focus on something else (no, seriously LMFAO)


the gains are minimal though like a true bsg fashion the main benefit of building the gym is avoiding the penalties from not building it

Just got my 32 inch curved monitor tme to see how great or shit it is for tarkov. First impression before even playing is that I fucking love it
>>
>>551834237
Yeah, I used to have a trick for which part of the screen I focused upon but skipped a wipe or 2 and forgot it. Now the movement distracts me for a split second every time and it's annoying. Very true about the gains not counting for much though
>>
>>551834394
I think I remember that it's a timing thing, the circle just makes the timing less forgiving. So try to get a rhythm... I think that's right.
>>
>>551834382
Curved monitors are dope my man. I could never go back to a normal monitor.

Have I truly become a monster?

>>551836215
It's an interesting meta-game for sure. On one hand you have humongous pussies and on the other you have chads doing hard quests or farming bosses. I killed a guy farming chek 15 on colombia once and it was a ttv, so I would just keep stream sniping his queue until he swapped servers LOL

nah, I don't think anyone needs to reset his account, ever. pscavving solves the problem of lack of gear. resetting is the ultimate bitch move

Loud! But I should experiment a bit with the muzzle flash and see if a higher or lower optic is better.

I dont even use the starter gear just pistol run on ground zero to get your money up. Start with nothing in your secure container and fill it up every time with stuff that sells to therapist well
>>
>>551837064
LOUD OF COURSE
>t. (my hearing is damaged from magdumping timmies indoors)

loud is based but it's easy to blind yourself with the muzzle blast.

you use it for free heals after raids by not paying the rapist

It's tough but if they're rushing in I would position myself directly downrange from the door. This means that if they want to shoot as soon as they see you, they need to stop basically in the threshold and run the risk of shooting themselves in the head. It also keeps them close together so it's easy to stay on target(s) while you're magdumping. If they don't want to be in that position then at least one of them will need to sprint in and thats your chance to take him out immediately then go back to suppressing the door.

In those situations as long as you get one of them you're good. These are the times when having a drum mag REALLY shines. Like a fucking big one, the 95-round rpk mag is great for this shit. You need to keep firing to keep them from just ganging up on you. If you're not cornered in the room, once you kill one and sufficiently spook them then be backing up and out your escape route while you keep suppressing the spots they're trying to push from. Then fucking leave. Of course, the best case scenario is that they all just pile in through that tiny door and all fucking die to your hail of gunfire.

wtf anon, why would anyone bring a FOUR SLOT item in their container, what possible need would they have for it
>>
The game would've been much better balanced if lvl 3 armour was the most common one run and 4 was rarer but everyone and their mother runs 4's starting at 2nd traders, there's basically only lvl 4 and 5 tier everything else is irrelevant
