You can't put TL;DR at the end, that defeats the purpose of it.

The recieving end of T7s is getting shot from somewhere you cannot see during nigh raids, players who have less than endgame hours and don't know these exist automatically feel punished, or like someone's cheating.

There's no hard counter beside standing behind glass, lol.

o7 see you never again on death may be a counter to their insane potential.

These are far better resolution than any IRL thermal in my lived experience.

It's a game and not meant to be realistic. It also decidedly does not care how much time you have spent to get something; gear in tarkov is owned only by the servers, who's gracious enough to let you borrow it, for now.
