NGL running guns for so many raids that they go from max to a low repairability is a flex imo

@the.bog. Ай бұрын

After playing SPT-AKI (on easy) you realize that the durability in Tarkov is super janky and guns degrade after running like 200 rounds through them…

@theShermanator Ай бұрын

could just be a raider gun they took and repaired? I have seen similar ones on Labs

@bigfulla Ай бұрын

@theShermanator that was my thought, pretty common to see them

his gun at least looks cool asf lol edit: on a side note... i kind of wish they did something a little different with the durability mechanic.

@yammyamm8480 Ай бұрын

Honestly, I find this to be way more fun than just buying presets off of traders, but that's a playstyle thing I guess. I just like the tinkering and Stash management. And it makes loot feel way more valuable when you intend to use it instead of just trowing it onto flea.

@kingawsume Ай бұрын

I'm going to die in my raids, so I go for drip because they're cheaper part. In this case, I use the long handguard with the short barrel so the end of the suppressor sits nearly flush with the end of the handguard (Honey Badger vibes)

Should make a series and call it "Pimp My Gun"

Even before the recoil rework if I wanted a cheap MCX I'd just use the ULSS stock, MOE AR-15 grip and an RVG BLK foregrip

I understand all the adjustments as it makes a better gun. But longer handguard + Hera foregrip is one of the best looking guns in the game IMO.

You're allowed to be wrong, but please refrain from voicing your wrong opinions in the future. The Hera foregrip looks horrible.

I've been using the viper PDW stock "ar-15" for a while now, I'm liking it the best, plenty of ergo to get me up towards 85+

@user-hy4on2wj4x Ай бұрын

Im using maxim cqb stock, its dropping a few recoil points, but has whopping +15 ergo, besides costing 5k instead of ~50k of tubes and other stuff

@wurfyy Ай бұрын

And it's easily the best looking of all of them, which is why I use it.

@ProtesttheAntagonist Ай бұрын

his setup looked so much better than yours. That's clearly why he used the Spear buffer tube adapter and possibly why the 12" handguard found its way there as well. All you gained is a perceived improvement in ADS time, but the slomo shows his reticle on target what? 2 frames? later than yours.

@xxmillerxx8259 Ай бұрын

Wait should i leave the front and back sight's on the guns even if i have a sight?

@wurfyy Ай бұрын

Some ironsights add +1 ergo. If you really want to minmax, then having those irons on if possible is a good idea.

@vonBelfry Ай бұрын

Biggest issue I see is the big mag. The rest is just salvaged parts. MCX don't need chonker mags with the ammo available for it early.

@prisonerheadcrab6526 Ай бұрын

The reason of using this particular tube and lock is because this build was given as a quest reward during previous event with flash drives.

@visnyliss Ай бұрын

Something I've been thinking about, how much do you value 1 Ergo vs 1% Recoil? I've been operating on the assumption that, generally, 1% Recoil is worth about 2.5 Ergo. For example, if I was picking a foregrip for a bang-for-your-buck build, and my choices were Grip A with 3% Recoil only, or Grip B with 9 Ergo only, and both were priced about the same, I'd go with Grip B since that gives me more performance for my Roubles. Of course other factors need to be accounted for, like is the build severely lacking in one or the other, but lets ignore that for now. Do you make considerations like this for budget- or value-oriented builds?

@Gigabeef Ай бұрын

It's certainly an interesting question - because it depends where you are on the ergo-recoil spectrum. SVD for example is starved for ergo and is semi auto, so ergo here is typically more valuable than recoil, vs another weapon with higher ergo like the RD-704 where you can go for more of a recoil centric approach. Typically though I usually think about the same. 3:1 ergo to recoil is normally a good trade now, 2:1 borderline and 1:1 I generally won't do. But it depends on the situation :)

@laszlo2103 Ай бұрын

For me its ussaly question of range. On semi auto weapons i go more for ergo as i am using 1/6x scopes and for automatic i ussualy go for recoil. Not really sure if i would consider 50/50 build a thing people do a lot. Generally its only about handgrip (BU or se7) and stock.

@MarcusPin Ай бұрын

wait you guys have time to make it to max traders and afford the items you can actually use/buy to make good guns?

@boku_z6317 Ай бұрын

Gogabeef don’t understand that not every players are minmaxing is so funny to me. Bro literally said “idk why he’s using this fore grip at this high level.” 😂

@tristanhicks9824 Ай бұрын

Speaking from experience he’s probably using an AFG for the same reason I do- I hate the look of how vertical foregrips are held in the game

MCX is such an underrated assault rifle. I've seen several videos recently of ppl being like...oh hey this isn't that bad... like uhh... CBJ absolutely shreds especially at the fire rate of the MCX. Only rifles I'd take over it would be the Spear first and foremost and then the SA-58.

@Der_Thrombozyt Ай бұрын

Isn't it a shame, that there is the weapon malfunction mechanic that adds a ton of flavor, but it's just not used because everyone just easily keeps his weapon about the arbitrary threshold where it never malfunctions?

@@dervish6970 Shouldn't it be that trader guns have lower durability, and those you find yourself are in better condition. People are already reluctant to pick up weapons ingame because they are heavy, take a lot of space, have low per slot value, generally don't come modded with good attachments, you probably didn't bring compatible mags and ammo.

@oleksiihera6259 Ай бұрын

Honestly I prefer my gun to be damaged. First of all, it is a unique experience when it jams and I don't find it frustrating because the game is easy enough for me at this point. And secondly, I really like to see how much I have use the same gun, something like a streak. I have a fully modded HK I was using on reserve boss event and it is on 70 durability, I have extracted with it like 5 times killing a lot of bosses/PMC's. But again, the game just feels too easy at this point.

Imagine buying a new rifle, taking it to the range for test and then heading back to the gun shop for a replacement because it melted like it was made of ABS plastic after 6 mags. The damage mechanic is pretty stupid as far as I'm concerned and is just lazy balancing. I have rifles with thousands of rounds through them with barely any cleaning looking like Andy Dufresne crawling out of the sewer at the end of shawshank redemption and they still run.
