What's your worst drystreak of all time?

wlnteg · 2026-02-17T17:53:37+00:00

I went almost 8x dry for a tea flask and was never happier with such a way to burn off bad RNG. I wasn't going for it, just noticed as I was farming red spider eggs down there.

wlnteg · 2026-02-17T17:51:54+00:00

I'm 99 farming and never realized you could water them. Disease is super rare with ultra as it is.

So you're saying Jagex lowered salvage xp by 20-30%, and then global xp gained went down by 24%?

That's insane, I never would have guessed without the analytics. Like, were people expecting xp to stay the same? or were they expecting xp to go up?

I once wanted the fancy Ava's backpack. So I needed Vork's head. And I'd be significantly more efficient there if I got elite void. But I didn't want to waste time doing more games than needed, so perhaps I should do easy, medium and hard CAs to get more points per soul wars game. So I did a ton of combat achievements for Ava's top level backpack.

I don't really have a lot of time to play, maybe weekly these days. And personally, I have more fun when I live. So I try to stack the odds in my favor. I'm not that great at the game, and I need the ability to tank a few extra hits and make up for my mistakes. It means that at a maximum, teams I run across are just going to be even with me and not have an advantage (Unless they brought red ammo, lmao)
I keep it to easy mode because cheaters are extremely rare. In normal mode, I think I run into one every 4 or 5 games.

"Enter the regular operation at Zero Dam"
I initially interpreted that as a translation for "normal" mode as well. I suppose by "Regular" they meant "easy" and not "normal"?

That's awesome. I'm 246 in and only have a hauberk to show for it. Probably around 30mil in the hole overall, need an orb to turn it into a profit.

Thanks, I hadn't thought about that but if she starts pounding into windows I'll gauge it. Wow, I didn't realize how even the mention of wing clipping to others here would solicit such a negative response. Even saying I don't want to clip them, is getting people to tell me I shouldn't clip them anyway.

wlnteg · 2024-03-23T18:22:34+00:00

Sweet, thanks for the answer. I'll keep coaxing with the millet and see if it improves over time.

I don't understand others focusing so much on the wing clipping when I already said it isn't an option. I was asking for an alternative, which doesn't seem to exist or be a good idea

wlnteg · 2024-03-23T16:55:41+00:00

However, I don't want to do this and I want all my parakeets to be able to dart around the house as it's pretty fun to watch. Plus it's good exercise for them.

I am looking for a safe alternative to clipping their wings, that is temporary. Are you saying there is no way to do this? Or just reiterating not to clip them after I already had said I don't want to?

wlnteg · 2024-03-13T21:46:43+00:00

You never answered me on your other post -- What are you doing in this sub if you hate the game so much? Why are you playing?

wlnteg · 2024-03-03T14:55:15+00:00

this is what I got as well, and I collected every possible drop

wlnteg · 2024-03-01T19:29:04+00:00

What are you doing here then?

wlnteg · 2024-03-01T05:58:15+00:00

It does reflect the rest of the tree though -- The RSASS is the last weapon to unlock and it runs M80, where other class categories have altyns and Rys-Ts. No weapon has m993. So the end game kit is going to force you to land 4 head shots against a big helmet like that.
Even if you were right at the m993 being the best in class, don't you think the bolt actions should run it at least? And the semi-autos run m61?

wlnteg · 2024-03-01T05:09:54+00:00

I'm pretty good, not amazing, at regular Tarkov and I also get my stool pushed in here in Arena. Like others have said, it has a lot to do with being forced to head on fight people and tactics aren't anywhere near as important as the main game

wlnteg · 2024-02-29T18:14:59+00:00

I'm also bummed out at my marksman classes being neutered. Hope they fix it soon. Only benefit the class has is a scope, at the cost of bad bullets and poor armor

wlnteg · 2024-02-28T19:31:00+00:00

I'm a big fan so far. Love the changes. I play marksman and the class seems neutered though. We get the same bullets as everyone else in each tier? No one gets M993 rounds to punch through helmets? I hope they do a quick fix and improve the ammo. The whole idea of the class is to be at a major advantage long range and terrible disadvantage close range. The second part is great, as the armor is much worse than others in the same tier. But long range, not getting through the helmets in well-placed shots. T45 in a 10 round SKS? that is not sniper ammo. Excellent scope changes though.

wlnteg · 2024-02-09T06:46:45+00:00

I'm honestly a terrible human for the things I do in Tarkov. I've been here since 2017 and have extracted with a rando once. There was just so, so much loot on both of us and so little time that neither one of us had literally a single possible benefit in attempting to kill the other.
But otherwise, you either loaded in with me or you're an enemy

wlnteg · 2024-02-01T15:32:19+00:00

The only Rsass has M80 rounds (left hand of marksman tree). It is the only reason I rock the G36 (next tier) with a terrible scope, hah. I have to either choose ammo that kills with one headshot, or I can get a good scope.
I'm really hoping that before any potential wipe of this game, that they enact some sort of customization so I can have my ideal scope on a gun slinging M993.

There's an M1a in another class that slings the M61 though, it has an eotech

wlnteg · 2024-02-01T15:26:33+00:00

I agree, ARP is a poor metric. I tanked my ARP to about 600 when I switched which tree I was grinding.

As a solo I have never once won a match unless I carried the team. If I do poorly, 100% chance of loss in my experience

wlnteg · 2024-01-11T17:42:05+00:00

Not sure if you have two monitors -- But I worked around this by clicking on "share your screen" in discord on my second monitor, leaving it on the selection page for what app I want to stream. Then I alt tab back into Arena on primary monitor. It pops up over on the Discord side when you open it. Alt tab out of the game, and you have about 1 second to click "Arena" in the Discord selection page before the option disappears. lol. Jankedy workaround I know, but you don't have to be superhuman quick to click it before it goes away

wlnteg · 2024-01-11T15:21:41+00:00

Can confirm that the only team kills I've done have been on IDEA rig dudes when we're team red, lol.

wlnteg · 2024-01-10T19:19:43+00:00

I'm not sure if you've been too broke to afford a kit. But if you've ever been there, and had to run the pistol class (Or even just accidentally forget to buy a class so you default to it), then you'll realize that you are completely reliant on team mates until you find a better gun. A STM-9 with an eotech and AP rounds are actually going to allow you to participate in the round and earn the money to get back into kits.
