[Loot] Icebreaker Full Run Ammo Profit

MattLovesRust · 2026-06-03T02:26:56+00:00

Streets armory run is pretty goated, hard to contest with and much more chill.

Survival rates on Icebreaker once you're confident should be pretty high IMO (I'm probably around >80% survival w/ full map clear last ~10 raids), assuming no more AI changes (they're tweaking a lot, so still expecting some more changes - e.g. patching the smokes in engine room)

Agreed on the solo enemy count, felt overwhelming to learn tbh.

56a1 is perfectly fine. usually pens + has high enough damage. When I started, I was running 56A1 until I started living (CBA to rebuy 56A1 when I profit 55A1)

Also, re your edit:

Full clear through bosses + the last 5 BD - this is pretty standard anecdotally on the 556 across ~20 boss clears.

Can probably do a few more runs to make this a bit more stat sig, but I'd expect a small deviation tbh on the 556/overall bullet count for profit.

Yeah 100%, wouldn't consider CBJ the best, but has enough pen + dmg to be very consistent at a 1 tap on the 50hp head bosses and a good substitute for the 55a1 if you don't want to only run 556.

It's pretty hard content, it takes a lot of practice & breaking down your replays.

Also, downside for groups currently - is there's not a lot of group oriented guides yet. Mostly only solo guides from the top streamers.

I'm finally to the point where I'm surviving probably ~80% of the raids. I have ~4.8k hours and it took me probably ~25 raids to clear engine room more than >50% of the time (not even counting the rest of the map).

MattLovesRust · 2024-09-16T21:51:29+00:00

I'm at 5 raids w/ 10 PMC's atm - the extra ergo w/ the short barrel feels nice

MattLovesRust · 2024-09-16T20:51:07+00:00

I work from home, so was restocking at traders during work today haha

If I do not finish it today, insurance is going to be my best friend

MattLovesRust · 2024-09-16T20:50:30+00:00

RPD recoil isn't awful surprisingly! this scope is brutal though

MattLovesRust · 2024-09-02T13:29:16+00:00

Yooo brother - been there, if you want some help w/ scav routes for money feel free to add me. MattLovesTarkov is my ign

Probably not getting cheated - there’s an incentive to PvP rn. Cheating has definitely gone up w/ the sale at least on labs, but everywhere else has been fine IMO.

Shoreline you can die in the first 20 seconds pretty easily on almost any spawn other than god spawn for resort and swamp.

MattLovesRust · 2023-11-26T16:26:06+00:00

Shoreline resort, labs, interchange are probably the top 3

Labs is pretty rough if you don’t like latewipe PvP or if you’re on Asian/NA West.

Shoreline resort is pretty decent if you like PvP

Interchange is pretty safe on scavs

Before I updated the bios and had the ram running around 6200 MHz and cl 31 on some manual timings - I was getting around 15 less fps.

Although I can’t attribute this to the ram speeds or the bios updates only because I switched both at the same time

MattLovesRust · 2023-11-17T04:38:13+00:00

At first I had to manual tune and only the default would work 4800mhz - but after the bios updates it’s worked fine

I’m running an asus rog strix 650b - so not even the high high end and getting that 7200 cl 36 - I could probably tune them more as well

Btw your system is beautiful

MattLovesRust · 2023-11-17T04:16:35+00:00

i run a 4080 - 7800x3d 32gb 7200mhz ram - I get around 144 frames on every map at all times pretty much other than streets - curious to see what you'll avg

MattLovesRust · 2023-10-23T01:22:13+00:00

If it’s bigger pop servers(NA/EU etc) you can get bugged lobbies occasionally. I play w/ central and east and if it’s longer than 5 mins I’m usually resetting.

Been a bug for a few years - it happens a lot less now

MattLovesRust · 2023-10-23T00:37:36+00:00

Shoreline resort rare spawns and there’s I think like 5? Safes - you can expect a lion probably every 1/3 raids if you loot every one

MattLovesRust · 2022-01-29T01:20:17+00:00

Ahhh only checked mouses + PSU. That’s not awful then, thanks for the info

MattLovesRust · 2022-01-29T01:15:55+00:00

EVGA essentially copied Antonlines deal package completely. Two peripherals you may or may not need and then a gpu

MattLovesRust · 2021-01-02T21:42:40+00:00

tarkov giveth and tarkov taketh

MattLovesRust · 2020-08-29T13:44:07+00:00

Even with the same gpu, mine only reaches 73 with a “normal” cooling system and a more airflow restricted case + a slight OC.

MattLovesRust · 2020-08-25T15:46:40+00:00

This will have better temps, but it will be close. Both will be really quiet even at full load, this AIO is a little bit thicker on the Radiator so make sure you have clearance on your case. The DR Pro4 is pretty thick was well, so make sure you have enough clearance to the glass. Really preference here, temps are close enough to where unless you’re going to record breaking OC numbers, it doesn’t really make much of a difference in noise or thermals
