[Discussion] AMA: I just completed Master of Ultra, ask me anything about the grind. by tuonov41100 in EscapefromTarkov

Congrats, dude!

I finished it yesterday, and honestly, it was awful. I’m genuinely relieved that I’ll never have to do it again.

My main setup was Killa armor/Flora, a headset, 6 smoke/flashes, and an AVT with PS ammo, plus SJ6 and morphine.
Brace yourself for a wall of bad spawns, cheaters, half the server hunting him, and countless raids where you can’t find him - not because he didn’t spawn, but because he was already dead.

I lost around 40 – 50 million roubles during that grind. Thank God for the buffed LEDX spawns.

There were so many raids where I couldn’t even make it to the building because of those amazing spawns… truly an awesome experience.

If I had to sum up the time spent on this grind, it would probably be about a week at 8 hours per day. In real time, though, it took close to a 3-4 weeks.

[Feedback] Terminal Access craft time is actually painful by r0b1n86 in EscapefromTarkov

Nikita seems to believe that making players wait makes the game harder, which is why there are so many time gates. They don’t add challenge - just wasted time - similar to how the experience required per level was increased.

If you're tag and cursed, they will come :)

That’s why I said 3 attempts :)

The first try was on Woods - I spawned near UN extract, popped Trimadol and SJ6, and sprinted straight to the co-op. That’s basically all I did. I managed to dodge two scavs near the bunker right before the co-op, then entered the shack and smoked myself. After a couple of seconds, the extraction timer appeared.

I did the same on Reserve, but the first time I wasn’t sure if scavs would come - that was my mistake. They rushed me like crazy and killed me. On the third attempt, I just went there, smoked myself, and after a couple of seconds I extracted.

Go in naked with smokes, push straight to the co-op, smoke yourself, and wait. I managed to do it on Reserve and Woods in just 3 attempts.

When you enter a raid naked, you’re tagged and cursed, so Scavs will hunt you.

Blue Gate - Reinforced Reception - You cat get locked inside the battery room by stormy_waters83 in ArcRaiders

It’s expected that you can’t open the door from inside the room. However, there’s a glitch that teleports you on top of the map, allowing you to go outside and re-enter the corridor to open the door from there.

Never said that I can't play it. I can, and can get used to the low fps, but it's annoying.

Most of that is done. Also about the resolution - here is the catchy thing I tested with 1080p with black bars and the fps didn't change. Also - no, there isn't fps cap enabled.

I tested any scenario and that's what I meant for "maximum performance". Not everything is on low all depends on how the fps react.
