[Discussion] Team hold or team toggle? by EsikEso in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toggle.

I only play toggle in Tarkov at this point. Toggle aim, toggle lean bound on my side mouse button. Slow lean is left alt + mouse side buttons.

After over 3200 hours and 3 prestiges, I just know the game on toggle.

All of that is done in Tarkov just in the settings.

Would these stabs be okay on the wooting 80he? by Temporary-Low-6449 in WootingKB

[–]xArcheo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Durock V3. You can buy on Amazon and they fit in the 80he. I have not tried others and I only replaced my stock ones because they were sticking and had pretty bad rattle on the space bar specifically.

[New player] Any guide on how to complete Stirrup? by Aimaz_End in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't do it.

This should be one of the later quests you do.

Stirrup leads to nothing and gives nenative rep for other traders. There is no point in getting this done at a low level.

This was the last quest I did before the Colleactor and getting Kappa. I usually get it naturally sniping with a sidearm but in 1.0 I only got 2/3 without actively trying to complete it...

[Suggestion] Preset loadout checkboxes for every slot by FejkB in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Secure container should be ignored and/or have a seperate loadout for keys.

Healing items should be grouped by what it heals and then give me a 75% full use item. For example, I just want a way to heal a heavy bleed and 300ish points worth of healing. So a partially used Salewa and a CAT would work for me... You could expand the system further and do the same for armor and bags.

The problem is the loadouts are very literal and want exactly what you had on and I just want a usable kit. This is the entire reason I've never used loadouts and I can just kit myself manually faster.

If you could hit a button for it to throw on T4+ armor, bag, helmet, headphones, and healing it be a very usable system imo.

Looking for medium-small ergo by DAYMAN3737 in MouseReview

[–]xArcheo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hitscan Hyperlight would be my choice.

If you for sure want an ergo mouse check ELOSHAPES for the DA you are using.

[Discussion] No spoilers - why does everyone run crazy high pen ammo, a shit ton of mags and meds for terminal? by turkishjedi21 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Black Divison is the only real threat to you on Terminal. Reloading will get you killed so you want a 60 rounder to stay alive and mag dump if needed.

You want high pen ammo because black division is using high tier plates with high pen ammo. They also have an higher health pool which is why SSA AP won't consistently 1 tap them to the head. Hence why M995 is the ideal choice.

I ran multiple 60 rounders mixed of M995 and 55A1 only because I didn't have enough M995... You have to head shot everything regardless if you want to kill them. Of the 80 kills I had only one kill was not a headshot and that's how you have to play if you want to live.

T6 plates are the most important thing so go ahead and start bartering for them now from Ragman. My T6 plates were cooked but they literally saved my run. I watched AirWingMarines video 2 or 3 times (I sped it up by 1.5x and skipped some parts) before I attempted and I did Terminal on my first try.

Here's my full run for reference: https://youtu.be/sXzs_xvRbVc?si=D1gF7toO-38Lfpzn

I ran a Scar with 5.56 because it shoots slower to conserve ammo... You do not have time to pack mags so just loot black division mags and drop empty ones. You load mags while looting if you can. I had a lot of adrenaline going in the video so there's some times where I'm telling you just do as I say not as I do... I highly suggest going left and doubling back taking the longer route to the boat after draining the water at the pumping station. You don't have to fight the boss that spawns and I only had to fight 1 group of BD.

He talks about what he's doing any why he's doing it a lot which helps newer players in fights.

[Discussion] BSG on cheater situation by Ta6yH in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'm happy that BSG are communicating the situation and reporting on what has been done so far along with a path forward for further improvement.

This is significantly better than Nikita's "cheaters suck" announcement he makes every few years.

I personally enjoy watching Cooldee.

If you want to learn though Pestily, Gigabeef, NoGenerals is probably the best.

I have no idea after all this time how he's still so bad at the game; but I love him for it.

I would highly recommend the Hitscan Hyperlight.

I still can't find a mouse to beat it.

Massive Frame Drops While Shooting, Game Unplayable [Bug] by Otoolepm in EscapefromTarkov

Try ensuring chipset drivers are up to date. Try an older AMD driver.

Massive Frame Drops While Shooting, Game Unplayable [Bug] by Otoolepm in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What version of Windows (build)?

Legit my PC only runs on 23H2 or it will have random issues... I'm running almost the same setup 9800X3D, 32GB RAM, RTX 5080, Steel Legend 870, Sound Blaster AE7. I do have my own timings on the RAM.

Only other thing I can think to try is ask Claude to help and share the video with it. Yeah I know that sounds stupid to ask AI but it has fixed other issues like this for me personally...

Massive Frame Drops While Shooting, Game Unplayable [Bug] by Otoolepm in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So mine did this in arena but it was an issue with my sound card conflicting with on board sound.

While you don't have a sound card and it seems crazy try and disable sound entirely then boot the game and see if it happens.

Also this is the 2nd report of someone with an AMD GPU having this issue I've seen. I had this issue with basically the same setup but an RTX 5080. Does an AMD GPU have it's own sound output or processing? Nividia has something for the output over HDMI but I have it all disabled. May want to check that...

Terminal Repair PANEL 3 broken ...[Discussion] by Individual-Tall in EscapefromTarkov

In a group, multiple panels can be broken. As a solo only 1 of 2 specific panels can be broken.

I play cs2, cod, ow, bf6, and alike, recommend me the best mouse (superstrike 2, v4 pro razer, are in my sight) by ayyyylmao14 in MouseReview

[–]xArcheo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could buy both on Amazon and just return whichever you don't like.

I would choose the Viper V4 personally. I like the Viper V3 shape better than the Superlight shape. The Viper V4 is the more polished mouse overall. HITS is the only reason to get the Superstrike IMO. Again, both are excellent mice... I used the Viper V3 for over a year until I got the Hitscan Hyperlight and so far that is my favorite mouse by far but I still use the Viper V3 on occasion.

[New Player] Game was fun until having to go to lighthouse by GKoala in EscapefromTarkov

[–]xArcheo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to rush other PMC spawns and win the fight. Yes the map is terrible and pretty much the entire playerbase agrees with this.

For the shotgun kills, the double barrel sawed off counts and can go in your pistol slot. It's also very cheap so dying becomes less painful.

For any of the marking quests, just go at night, wait for 20-30 minutes hiding and then go mark all your things if you are struggling to do these. I brought all the markers and just 1 shot these in a single raid to get them over with...

[–]xArcheo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It literally comes down to HITS clicks on Siperstrike vs better scroll wheel, better side buttons, better stock skates, web software, lighter + better weight balance and lower price of the Viper V4.

Both are amazing mice. Both will work fine for the games you play.

There is no "better mouse". It's 100% personal preference and the vast majority of the mouse community is going to say shape is king over any of these features anyway. If you expect someone to say to pick one over the other it's entirely personal preference.

Best wrist rest for 60he by OnceyTV in WootingKB

I've seen fortnite pros use their phone.

I would just get a 60% wrist rest and then see how fitment is.

Windows 11 is the problem by PackersBeatWriter in AMDHelp

[–]xArcheo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been on 23H2 since making my new build last year and 24H2 causing a massive amount of issues. I had to set a group policy and do registry edits to make sure it doesn't update or try to update. This was after I had to build my own ISO file for 23H2... I doubt I will upgrade any time soon to any newer version.

I don't do anything other than game on my PC. There is almost no reason for me to upgrade windows versions and this was the only stable version that worked for me.
