That’s really nice man.

On Saturday I unlocked the flea with exactly this strategy (I've been treating this wipe as an experiment to see if this was possible/how difficult it would be). My stash value is over 80 million with 22.5 million in cash roubles. I also have 3 slicks, two altyns with face shields, 4 ammo cases, a grenade case, 5 scav junk boxes etc It's been a lot of fun tbh. The only map I've run my scav on is Streets

That's awesome! Once I get my dad a decent PC I'll also start him on scav runs! And nice work Micky you're smashing this wipe

@ChucklesTV thanks! I've been playing since 2018 and it was getting a bit stale, so I thought I'd just scav main this wipe & it's been great fun!

Legend 🔥

Great tip!

Today I learned! Thanks random KZfaq commenter!

Do you mean you can see that before you enter a raid? Gotta check that out

im not sure how it calculates that value but its wildly exaggerated.

@@cumobama1398 It shows the "true value" of the items, but traders have multipliers which lower the amount of roubles you end up getting. Therapist is 0.63, Mechanic 0.56 etc.

Yep absolutely, I've lately been PMC running it a lot more trying to get comfortable and it's been pretty good, maybe just the player base falling off like normal making the raids quieter and easier

As a pmc its the best map to get meta kitted guns, you just go in with mp9n and cheap kit and if you kill a player in bunker it will likey be meta

@@ChucklesTV Good point! IIRC we are in 6-ish month wipe cycles now, only at the tail end of month 3 and folks have fallen off hard...hate to see it

That saddens me. I typically strictly play Reserve as PMC and always scav there as well.

Yeah time of day has a massive effect on efficiency i think !

You cant loot it as a pmc lol, thats everyones mistake. I survive like 10-15 raids between each death and come out with 1 mil average and 3 mil for crazy raids

Thanks very much mate! If you can think of any mistakes I made with how I ran the experiment let me know and ill try to fix them for the 3 retests to 50mill :)

You're very welcome!

Thank you!! Glad you learnt a lot from the videos! I'm passionate about providing data-driven content but it just takes so long to get the data haha I'll be doing more in future!

i have a similar route depending on where i spawn and if i have path. If i spawn down south by the cabins i will hit the staches and loot going south and then looping around and up to hit the chalets and the staches on the way to path. If i spawn all the way north, I loot the werehouse and then try and kill the rogues before hitting either path or the grotto

Yea pmcs know this and have extract right there too

You're very welcome! Hope it helps!

they need to increase the penalty for scav killing scav to the point that you can no longer scav for an entire day. Also yea, cheaters are all over the place, lvl 8 new account hitting me and my friend and a third party from over the wall in the dark without termals also running like meta gear. Yea sure buddy.

I found a marked key worthed 2mil I was heading to mall extract which is somewhat dangerous, then some random player scav threw a nade at me across the road then head shot me for no reason. Quite funny.

literally happened to me 2 days ago, found a gpu at the usec building, then 5 minutes later a PMC sprinted up to my building and asked for it. He killed me as I tried to run from him since I had a crappy gun lmao. His stats indicate he's a rage cheater.

yeeeeeeeeeeeep me tooo mate i hope i dont get boolied too much by pmcs next time

Thanks mate

Thanks for the sick map

Haha thanks

Thanks very much mate !

Thanks for watching it mate !

Thanks !

oof sorry

Thanks

During the run I was hitting a lot of weapon crates but so many were already looted, there were heaps of other p scavs

I use to main Reserve for the longest time on scavs, the last couple months I’ve switched to Streets and it’s been loads better comparing them. I’d say about every other scav on reserve I was being killed by pmcs and I haven’t died once on streets besides one rogue scav.

dude if you loot the ration crates by bunker hermatic, helicopter and black bishop you find so much alyonka and sugar. free money tbh

This is something I noticed with my PMC runs as well, survivability on shoreline has been a huge factor for me getting lots of rubles

Thanks for watching!

Yeah I completely agree 1mill/hr for newer players on scav is probably a safe bet, I wonder what the easiest map to teach a new player to scav on is

@@ChucklesTV The biggest issue is inventory space imho - i stopped telling new players to go hunt raiders if they spawn with a TOZ and no backpack lol. No backpack scavs are rough with INT lvl1 and 20+ minutes timer. I have troubles myself with such a loadout and sometimes struggle to find a body with a bp. Mby im jaded but I throw most of em into the deep end and tell them to go Reserve until they stop dying. Route: White Knight (jackets) - Black Knight (jackets, 7 cabinets, 4 PCs) - W. Bishop (if they need salewa/morphine) - B. Bishop drop down room - and quickly check Queen GPU spawns if they feel lucky (its 90% vacuumed in EU) - I personally scaved dozens of GPUs on Reserve, but the map is and always will be an unforgiving hellhole. Thats for those who are notoriously broke. For absolute beginners Customs/Woods is a good idea but not for money but for learning looting basics, reading web maps on a second monitor/smartphone/tablet, how to find extracts, the maps themselves for early questing ecetera. The best, or easiest, map in my opinion to learn scaving, inventory/time management, is probably Interchange (also everything they need for early hideout, meds in mantis, food in goshan etc) And if people need a kit for a PMC run I tell them to scav nighttime Lighthouse and check the mounted guns on the roofs. If PMCs cleared water treatment not many of them loot the gunners, so its fairly easy to get a kitted gun with decent-ish ammo out of it. But like I mentioned after the handful of raids i did on Streets I feel like its probably a goldmine, BSG did boost loot on the newest maps in the past, and Streets seems to have a bit of "everything" - although its a big map with shit performance, probably not suited for beginners and all im doing is guessing. Have no clue about Streets, but it seems rough.

@@ChucklesTVi had a 5-6 year tarkov hiatus. Woods and customs was the most confusing and annoying to run around on, and actually found streets to be quite easy to learn although big. Lighthouse is good too.

Haha I had 10+ people swear by every map mate, nothing helps without evidence.

Thanks! Yeah maybe I could have put that explanation in the actual spreadsheet

Yeeep a lot of good tips, flea score is so helpful, just hit 6 offers and it's so nice

Thanks ben !

Thanks cloud

Yep which is why in my uncontrolled variables section I talked about my map knowledge not being equal across the board.

Yeah me too, I'm going to main it as a PMC for a hundred mill or so then once I've learnt all the gold spawns I'll try fitting in a scav test before the economy goes nuts with wipe hype

Yeah! Will do but it'll take a while

Yeah! Make sense, thanks for the correction

I drew little boxes around the buildings on the map that I loot, go to those buildings and loot everything in there. Or you can watch the full VOD I linked in the description of my reserve test and actually watch me loot those buildings. For GZ I have no idea, I'll retest next wipe and we'll see

You're welcome!

thats my experience as a pmc for reserve. usually scav runs on reserve are risk free, i never run into pmcs maybe 1/10 raids i died to pmcs

Full vod of reserve run is posted in description - assuming a 5.5min CD, 2min queue, my average extract time was 4.9minutes. Also I have max karma so i have every extract every raid, maybe work on karma first?

@@ChucklesTV @agamer4891 Thank you guys both out!! Ill try again tonight and thank you ill checkout the VOD.

I have 11k+ hours so I just brute force learnt most loot but you can try: tarkov.help/en/

haha thanks, woods fo sho!

I'll probably do 20mill on each map next wipe then retest the top 3 maps again, if LH is voted in for the retest I'll do it

Thank you! I'd love to but it's far out of my area of expertise, I'd need to study up on networking/servers/routing to start with and my net isn't stable enough for accurate testing :(

Especially with btc prices now inter is sick
