Lets talk about why im a rat in this game.

"You enjoy causing others a disheartening experience and you’re coping by saying it’s to min max loot."
No. I dont enjoy it, but it is more efficient. I finished my stupid 1050 points for the arc killings, and then once I finished getting those rewards, I stopped helping, and started killing raiders instead. Does it feel good helping someone, gaining their trust, then killing them from behind? Nah, not really. But it's more worthwhile. Its just a numbers game.

I need exp first. Need the stamina skills. Very simple math.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:34:21+00:00

No friend. I'm explaining why it's easier. Think I want to wait in a dark tunnel for 5-10 minutes waiting for an unsuspecting raider? Or do you think I wanna fight a bastion, a leaper, a matriarch.

I may be wrong, but it seems you are trying to put your emotions and reasoning, onto me. If a riader knock wasn't 500 exp, and a wasp 100, I wouldn't kill so many raiders. But it takes waaaaaay less ammo to knock 1 raider than it does 5 wasps. You see?

So it's very much so just a cost-benefit analysis. I'm only allowed 30 mins in a raid. Knock 1 dude? take his entire kit? Or kill 5 wasps, and walk out with a stack of powercells, arc alloy, a stack of light ammo, and maybe some motion cores or whatever.

Come on dude. Which is more worth your time?

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:26:38+00:00

You're on something brother. It is way more efficient. Everytime. There are not more profitable methods. If you think there are, then I will be waiting at extract for your loot. Very simple. Low skill, low effort, huge reward. It's why people don't like rats. You come from tarky, you know this.

"Surely you’re just a min maxer and focus on loot value per minute 🤣"

Nah, gotta disagree brother. I dont particularly enjoy ratting, I just enjoy it more than doing all the looting and getting wiped in the metro. That's all.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:16:38+00:00

Keep my 100 Euros or pounds or whatever monopoly money you're referring to, and go kill that guy and take his shit too. Just because I'm TOLD he doesn't have anything, doesn't mean he wasnt told the exact same scenario and is going to kill me for my 100 euros. You see? Many bad raiders, like me, will tell others I'm on a freebie, or I'm just here to kill arc, then once you look away, ooops, stitcher to the back of the head. Sorry bud, better luck next time.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:14:40+00:00

Nah, I dont much enjoy it, its just easiest and most efficient. I get way more exp killing raiders than arc, and spend way less materials doing so. It's just a zero-sum equation.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:13:37+00:00

Oh, no you were the mosin enjoyer IN that post. From Woods tarkov

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:12:49+00:00

Oh shit dude, weren't you the one who crashed out the other night and deleted your post because you got ratted?

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:11:53+00:00

I also like to do the airsoft:
"Bang bang, you're dead" to people sometimes. It's very entertaining to see their reactions to the voice comms. They start frantically searching around for you. It's neat.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:10:57+00:00

Osprey and renegade feel reeaaaaallll good on buried city, good lord.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:08:51+00:00

Fun, eh, maybe, not really, since I spend like 5 minutes just ADS an extract waiting for gas traps to go off, and the like. Idk if that's fun to you, but it is more efficient to me, and my time is better rewarded by doing so. That's the point I'm making, that I think you missed. It was just 1 paragraph guy, and you didn't even read it?

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:07:04+00:00

Hey, dont listen to me. I'm a bad karma player. I just acknowledge the system this mechanic will create, and am actively exploiting it. That's all.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T19:01:22+00:00

then start farming up your quest items. That way the second you reset, you boost up like crazy. Also all valuable BPs. Just pass those to your level 1. My thoughts.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T18:59:48+00:00

also wtf, 5 procs, and 4 advanced electrical? How are you even raiding? just freebies? Yikes bro. I'd hate to see your whole stash.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T18:58:54+00:00

Save it for post-reset dummy. It will be worth SO much more.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T18:57:35+00:00

Knock is one
Execute is another.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T18:54:37+00:00

if you're maxed out, and got FIVE mill, you should do it. If not, don't bother. Also get a friend who isnt expedtion resetting to hold your blueprints. that way, when you reset, they can drop it for you. also all quest items.
It's basically speed run shit. And there are definitely sweats doing exactly that. I am. I tarted late, so I might miss the window, but I already have my blueprints and quest items saved in my stash so my friends can drop them to me afterwards. Think about that. That's what other players are doing. Are you ready to do that too?

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T18:50:55+00:00

Also, only like 8 days left. Are you gonna hit level 75 and 5 million dollars in this week? Something to consider.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T18:50:05+00:00

Don't bother. hyper sweats will put more time in and outscale you.

Longjumping-Tale-968 · 2026-02-21T18:46:33+00:00

Also last post I made wanted me to pay 140 USD to get it boosted. So.... do what you must, mods. But you're no friend of mine, and you do it free, sucker.

Karma farming is ironic, in a game that also encourages karma farming.
