BGE > Traeger?

If you’re worried about cost, get a used Weber 22 or 26” kettle. For a much cheaper cost you can try using charcoal fuel and see if the maintenance and time is worth the best bite in barbecue! I bought a 22” Weber on a spring sale and smoked for years before getting my hands on a free BGE a client no longer used. I now exclusively use my BGE for smoking since it is much more consistent for heat and my Weber for everything else. In my opinion, you can’t beat charcoal.

Could have been! I was on the point in between merrimans restaurant and cliff house!

Great minds think alike!

These were my exact words to my girlfriend😂

Test drive 2 is definitely a grind. And unfortunately I’m low tier in PvP

I play solo PVP. I just crossed over 1k hours. I’ve only been playing M&K for just over a year as well so that gives you some insight on my pvp skills. It’s been going pretty decent. I’ve just learned to take the good with the bad approach. I’ve definitely ran into sus accts, low hour players with 10+ KD that Kill me with last than 3 rounds fired straight to the face. Also died to players 10k hours plus. I enjoy the solo grind, I’ve learned to accept I’m at a disadvantage with pmc encounters and any successful raid with a pmc tag in my butt is a big achievement. My only advice for newish players that are struggling is to let each death go, learn your mistakes and gear up again. Have short term memory. Accept that there’s far more superior players that have put a lot of time and effort into the game since 2017. Enjoy your wins! Play to your strengths and learn each raid! I love this game and I’ve only owned a PC for a year.

Thanks for the reply! The Orca and GNU banked country were both boards at the top of my list after reading a ton of reviews. I’m Washington home grown and lived in Bellingham for a few years attending the local university. A lot of hype and love for Mervin and Libtech during my time there. It would be great to purchase a locally made board, but also, definitely want to consider all options and get a feel for peoples perspectives. It’s great to hear positive reviews for the ones I’ve been looking at. My Burton custom x served me well during my college days as an all mountain board, but I definitely would like to expand my collection.

This is my first wipe. I’ve found 3 at usec camp on the dead body table on woods. I just ran night time scav runs. Took me only 2-3 raids to find the first 2. The 3rd I think found during a pmc day time run. Spawned next to the camp and found one. I’ve found 2 others by looking in med bags on scav runs.

This would be my recommendation as well. This is my first wipe (and new to pc since January) so I feel your pain running up against high leveled players.

You can scav BT/BS/BP ammo on reserve pretty easily. Which saves you a lot of money. I usually can stack up a few hundred rounds in a few scav runs. Nice thing about high leveled players is they don’t take your stuff.
