Escape from Tarkov - something something insert Russian memes here

[Gandhi's Left Hook]

I don't think blue folders have a specific recipe. The cultist circle works off of input value. When you place items worth 350k rubles or above you get a 14 hour circle which (potentially) give you high value items. Circles with items 400k rubles or above also have a 25% chance for a 6 hour circle which will give you hideout upgrade items or items required for any active tasks. Regardless of how much the items are worth above 400k there's not a higher than 25% chance and you don't get equivalently expensive or rare items. There's also certain items you can put in the circle which will give you specific things back. Placing a kappa container in the circle will give you a desecrated cultist kappa container back, for example.

Yea I havent played for a few wipes. When cultist circle first came out it was a recipe but obviously that's changed. I have been getting consistant 6hr times with blue folders. I will try some of the other methods listed to compare. Im doubling my money right now.

Someone became the first person to reach the 'Savior' ending (aka the good ending) on PVP in Escape From Tarkov.



That someone is a Chinese streamer named 油墨香车 (You-mo-xiang-che). Look at these stats...

• KDR: 83.3
• Survival Rate: 93%
• Longest survival raid streak: 68
• Favorite gun: AA-12

So poetic that a guy with such stats won the good ending for the first time. Here is the confirmation by Battlestate Games and its head Nikita Buyanov, of which this smug streamer states that he anticipates BSG to give him a gift. Seems like Nikita is hesitant to ban him because it will prove that his game is a cheater's paradise and a cheater is the first person who won the good ending.

What even gets me even more is the amount of chinks that defend this guy and have literal fuckall in understanding how the game works. Their common defense? "NOOOOO GUILAO, HE PLAYED FOR 10,000 HOURS. OF COURSE HE WILL BE SUPER SUPER GOOD" or "HE DOES A 5-MAN AND HAS PROS IN HIS SQUAD TO DEFEND HIM AGAINST PLAYERS" or "BSG VERIFIED HIM SO HE'S NOT A CHEATER" or "HE USES AA-12 TO ONLY KILLS SCAVS" or "HE IS CHAMPION OF NVN AND 2023 PACIFIC LEAGUE WORLD FINALS." Nigga, I've seen streamers who play this game for a living with no life at all and the KDR that they could reach is like only around 20 and keep dying to the most random RNG moments possible.

It is to note that the China server of every Western-based multiplayer game, including Escape from Tarkov, is extremely notorious for being infested with cheaters. 5-stack squads are also more likely to get killed than a 1-man due to how involved communication is, especially with how sound and how buggy it can be affects teams. Cheats can be stream-safe, so people watching streamers don't really see the cheats behind the scenes. Apparently this guy also got banned from Arena: Breakout because he had cheats for other games, but got manually unbanned afterwards.

Chinese mianzi (面子) may be better than Indian izzat, but God is it so unsufferable in video gaming and academia. Cheating is a huge part of mianzi and Chinese culture where if you don't cheat, you're not working hard enough.

It's just salt on the wound that they are using the A12 which is such a fucking trash gun. So fucking blatant, it pains me.

I killed Partisan in SPTarkov but got felted by a PMC soon after. Didn't even know I killed a boss till after the fact.


And the Commander has come to Tarkov. Bow before the gun-kata, scavs.

It would be poetic if Nikita just mails him dogshit, but we know that won't happen.

I am black! There are no black people in Tarkov! Why would you honkies want to escspe???

WillerZ is one of the sweatiest motherfuckers to ever play tarkov, has twice this chinks hours, AND almost certainly cheats himself and he still only has a like 32 k/d. This fucking bug is so obviously cheating and having other chinks match into his raids for kills. Even if he's not cheating himself (which he is) he's playing in a 5 stack with 4 other chinks who definitely are and his completion is illegitimate in every way. He's cheating in every way possible and even the greenest fucking Timmy would be able to tell.

Did a bunch of Shoreline raids yesterday evening. Almost every single spawn was the one right to the south of the smuggler's base. Easiest money ever. No pvp at all, just filling a tri-zip with tons of shit, then a quick vehicle extract. Made like a million roubles in two hours with no player interaction. Shoreline may be my new method of farming hideout items and roubles.

Yeah the new Expansion areas on Shoreline (Scav farm), Woods (Scav Bunker/ Cultist Bunker,) and Interchange (Batya base + some outposts) are just gold mines for Hideout Upgrade items and gold spawns.

Partizan keeps raping my scavs every time I do a scav run in Woods.

Is this SPT? In SPT when Partizan is on the map he will specifically go after you every time. Turn down his spawn rate.

Thanks for letting me know. Which option for spawn rates do I change?

That depends on what mod you're using for spawns. If you're using no spawn mods then server value modifier may have options for boss spawns.

Just pulled Ultra medical and dorms marked from cultist circle. Can't sell dorm yet but probably wont as I need to kill pmcs there shortly and I can run it for labs keys. No way am I going to spent 6M for a 10 use one lol. I'll sell it once ive marked the circle probably.

Finals just finished so I have time to grind now. I "speed" ran it to lvl 25 the first week and have been cycling scav in factory while I study. Currently sitting on 130M stash value with 20M in roubles.

Ive also been scaving night time reserve when I took breaks and I have 2 ammo cases full of 5.45 BP and BT. They upped the good ammo spawns it game it seems.

Edit: I turned the case in so I'm stuck on a longer path for story. Gotta look at my options as I plan on completing story and then prestigeing for the first time and then running it back for Kappa on main. That's probably as far as I will make it before seasons. If prestige and story endings are transfered from season to perm, I'll probably do them in seasons as some of the quests are a lot easier when players are less geared. BSG really fucked shooter 1 and 2 with all the drops giving everyone loads of class 4 armor and AK's.

I could've sworn I saw a setting for those options somewhere in there. Eh, I'll just dig through it till I find something.

The game is on a 25% discount right now, is it worth buying it or should I wait for a deeper discount?

Probably close to as cheap as it will get. Otherwise you will have to wait until the next ban wave. Totally not a coincidence that Tarkov always goes on sale right after a ban wave btw.

On that note, vacuum looting is back. I scaved into an interchange run this morning to warm up and as I was searching a bag the loot was dissapearing out of it as it a split second before becoming visibile. I believe the user had some filter because not all the items were taken out of the bag and it happened super fast. All the loose loot around was absolute trash as well. Didnt hear a single shot the whole raid which was odd.

There is your answer, Mr. Rockefeller ^
If you hate yourself, have no life what so ever, and enjoy being pissed off and dealing with cheaters and bugs. then yes, you should 100% buy tarkov on the discount. and play it all day everyday over christmas break. on the other hand, if you have even 1 ounce of self respect, i would stay far away from it for the time being. if you REALLY want to try it and see if you like it, just get SPT and lookup some good mods with it. I've played tarkov since about 2020, and it has only gotten progressively worse SOMEHOW. its weird. they are trying to cater to everyone to much. picture a man trying to write a book, fix a car, and clean his carpet, all at the same time. thats essentially (in my opinion) what tarkov has turned into lately. as well as what 1.0 has brought about. its sad because its such an amazing game. to this day it has ruined essentially all other games for me. i am close to unable to play/enjoy anything else even a little bit. but what happens when the game that did that to you ALSO becomes unplayable and not any good? that has been the dilemma ive had recently.

yes this was a rant.

It's not about self respect, it's about enjoying the swim up current and ONLY up current. There is never a down current. Well unless you do 50% of your raids as a scav like I do lol. I just enjoy the game and don't like single player things too much. Now that my hideout is basically done, I just W key shots and try to take out the Timmy's who spent the first half of the raid hiding in a corner.

Suffer Timmy's suffer! I will take your enitre shitkit and remove the front sight of your mosin. Enjoy the insurance return!

New event fucking sucks but I guess it helped me get into playing Labs more often. Also, came up something really funny on Flea Market that made me LOL.
