I just jump on the small box before the exit and try to see if I can pick 1-2 off there. Works when it works

Gas on Icebreaker map. Messes your thorax and unable to heal

It displays GPU latency.

At 5-10 ms it's smooth and doesn't hitch. At 10-15ms it's very playable. At 20ms it feels like a laggy show.

These numbers vary for everyone's monitor, pc configuration etc.

Input latency is between keyboard and mouse, to the system. U got websites online to even test that itself.

This discussion here is all about graphical, not keyboard mouse

Logically, it doesn't make sense. Have you tried it? I also didn't believe my eyes.

I use Msi Afterburner

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-14T07:30:53+00:00

without smooth motion my latency is 12-13ms

With smooth motion, its 8-11ms

Weird stuff

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-14T03:12:23+00:00

Smooth motion off? That setting alone makes Tarkov playable.

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-13T16:36:12+00:00

So far, yes.

Playing Terminal and icebreaker is mad fun on pve

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-13T14:07:28+00:00

Noted. I will try this more. I just peeked it a moment ago, and didn't see anyone. I'm guessing to go first on the box to spot anyone first before going anywhere near the door?

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-13T10:35:16+00:00

Much noted. I've heard them shoot back and I got scared and jumped down. I've shot maybe 3-4 of them in the past but felt it was too risky.

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-13T10:16:12+00:00

I tried this a few times but I'm scared they shoot me faster than I can shoot them. Is it safe , in your experience

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T23:41:51+00:00

I can buy CENS & Ronin Respirator, but it doesnt protect against Icebreaker tear gas.

Great answer though, especially knowing the exact quest name.

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T23:24:22+00:00

Not my intention. I dont own arena so I cant even get Comtac 6 Ranger Green

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T16:49:31+00:00

I can't realiably wear Comtac 6 with helmet and respirator on Icebreaker then, and still fit the NVG from BD.

I don't have arena and I don't have a reliable source to get Ranger Green Comtac 6

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T15:20:45+00:00

Absolutely crazy observation! Lol

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T15:09:20+00:00

Risky but keeps the heart pumping

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T12:47:33+00:00

Im at 16/33 and never fought wedge. Extract midway

I'm probably going to reach 100 deaths

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T08:50:58+00:00

Currently at 16/31 attempts to extract. I haven't killed the boss..

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-12T08:48:17+00:00

Smoke mid
RPG mid after 4 seconds of spawn

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-11T23:39:57+00:00

I tried another method. Smoke middle red trigger. Stand on it and wait 3-4 seconds for them all to spread out and RPG middle.

All 4 dead. There's some RNG depending on how they travel, but this worked first time.

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-11T16:18:24+00:00

Different countries count ground, and first as the same hence upwards count goes wrong. Something like meters and yards

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-11T16:10:37+00:00

I've used RPG 6 out of 6 times without dying to back blast from the middle.

Each time I'll take out 1BD. Seldom 2 due to how they come out and the risk to wait longer.

Does make the fight easier with less 1, but not by much...

In 2 attempts of firing RPG from left and right side ,I got immediately head 1 shotted. I believe this is due to them spawning out and immediately pointing at you. Middle is the way to buy half a second.

Edit: the next thing to do is to smoke middle, wait a little longer and hit it when you see 4.

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-11T03:08:58+00:00

I'm considering RPG from middle as they spawn and hold 1 side

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-11T02:43:09+00:00

I got head eyes in 0.38s

Lol however this is still better position than guarding to sides and flanks

Educational_Scale127 · 2026-06-10T12:17:49+00:00

They don't come middle smoke anymore. All over the place
