its worth noting, you can use the old press vest plate to craft an entire new vest in the lavatory level 2 then repeat the process of upgrading the plate and crafting with the old discarded plate, really nice recycling that makes the whole thing cost peanuts

Rather than the SKS at level 1, I've been using the VPO-209 from Skier 1 because even without having Jaeger 1 yet you can still buy .366 FMJ rounds pretty regularly from Fence. This gives your level 1 gun A. The same 20+ pen as your SKS but also B. High enough flesh damage to 1-hit thorax when you're hitting a different hitbox besides the plates of staple armors. It can be used with 10-round 1x1 mags from Skier 1 in pockets if you bring no vest, 20-round mags from Skier 1 for a fraction of what 20-round SKS mags cost, or the 30-round mags regularly available from Fence at level 1 which at 4.2k are still less expensive than the SKS 20-round mags. Replace the stock gas tube + handguard with AK UltiMAK M1-B from Skier 1 for 2578 (less after selling back the stock one) for an ergo+recoil upgrade and ability to mount a red dot optic for much cheaper than the Bastion dust cover. The recoil re-work this patch allows the gun (even being single-fire) to be spammable in close-range encounters.

@Triplechomending

Adding to this: You can also get .366 Geska from Fence at level 1 when you don't have Jaeger yet, but that's not worth it tbh since then you don't get 20+ pen anymore. Only worth it when Fence has .366 FMJ or once you do unlock Jaeger.

Also look at fence for bags. Can usually get a daypack or scav backpack for pretty cheap. Also, there are static spawns of backpacks on some of the maps. Like on customs, I've seen a scav backpack spawn resting up against the tent on 2 story side of dorms spawn point, by the fence. It doesn't spawn every time, but I've see it once every couple of raids

.366 EKO goes in the VPO-209 and VPO-215 (not 136). Just clearing that up! Great video, Mr. Beef.

Which is a shame that it's been moved to Jager 2 as it now competing with apm instead of fmj

Another tip is EOD starts with a grizzly and that repairs everything except blacked limbs and fit in your container with cms with 3 extra slots for ammo or an item in raid.

Look up how to make a tapco sks. Has mounts for sights and foregrips. with the new recoil changes + 20rnd mags, this is prolly the best early gun imo if you have decent 762x39 ammo lying around (PS and up). Can be fully built with just lvl 1 traders and the total cost to build is around 45-50k roubles.

Amazing work. Love the "meat only" approach mixed with useful tips. Serves as amazing first-timer tutorial.

Mosin ammo is something you can find pretty often on fence. Just buy some LPS off of him every now and then if you wanna use a mosin.

Amazing info mate. Thanks for the tip. This helped me loose my "Gear ANxiety" of loosing my good gear that I've got after several scav runs (Doing them to learn map layout is helping me a lot!)

The uley is what i used for all of my close range mosin kills and my pistol kills. Its really great for stuff like that. At the time they were 40k on the flea and literally 700 rubles to insure of something insane like that.

Gigabeef, I really like the video for introducing new players. One thing that is missing for slightly more advanced is the use of Fence, it can be a great source of ammo/bags/class3-4 armour that is unavailable till later. For example fence can sell 7.62x54mm R T-46M gzh, in large quantities this is a 41 pen round not available till the flee market for more $. Same for 545 Ps for cheaper than flee, AP-M , and 9x18 top teir ammo. Class 3 DRD red packa for around 50k I think how to use fence is really not talked about in the community very much.

YES! I was looking at the cheap load outs video for 13.5 last night thinking “damn… hope the 14.0 one comes out soon”

I so want to get in there now when anyting goes really but I can't get sucked in or I'll think about Tarkov all through my vacation and resent it for it. Looking forward to seeing what late wipe looks like with these changes.

One thing to consider is buying the M32s early on helps more because its hard to spend money on Skiier, so it's an easy way to pump the money spent on that Trader until you unlock better things.

Great vid mr beef! Very useful for people who haven't played in a few wipes

My concern with the M32 is that it is more restrictive on what helmets you can use it with. Another is when topping off the SKS, unless you swap to your melee, your actually LOSING one round each time (cause you have to OPEN the action which ejects a round)

@cameronlamb1869 yeah it's not commen but it saves you from time to time.

I recommend always using tactical sport headsets as a budget option. Sordins if it's heavy rain and wind and you personally like cutting that ambient noise more than hearing distance.

Great video man!

Thank You for Info

with the audio changes a lot of the helmets with faceshields that you cant wear headset with are a lot more viable as the hearing distance between the lower tier headset and a full helmet is less then half the distance difference between the higher tier comtac 4 and the lower tier comtac 2 or gssh. the zsh-1-2m becomes available at level 2 with 2x plexi barter for the face shield giving you a level 4 helmet with a level 3 face shield that has a ricochet chance even with high pen bullets and completely covers the head and neck when prone facing a target. and at level 3 you get the 3x plexi barter for the bnti lzhz-2dtm lvl 4 face shield that can give you level 4 everywhere but the neck which is level 5. the helmet generally goes on the flee around 60-70k and with the armor changes it takes a LOT more bullets to get through those face shields now. i have been finding the helmets give more survivability then slightly better hearing range especially against lower level players or scavs who cant pen the helmets or face shields and have to leg meta or go for armor weakspots. multiple shotgun rounds to the face just wont get through and even when it pens you often live if its at a distance or not a high damage rifle round but something like 6.3 ap or L191 with the damage drop. and cost wise the zsh is going to be cheaper then a helmet + headset and lzhz only a bit more it depends on flee pricing at the time. the zsh having two color variants helps you find a cheap low 30k's one almost always. sheefgg has a good video testing hearing ranges with various headsets and no headsets and player weights with patch 14

at 5:01, I buy 3 half-masks from fence if he has them. Sometimes has like 40 in stock each like 3300 and you can get a paca from ragman for 10k.

I find it much handier to have both bleed meds on 4 - heavy on press and light on release, 5 for healing. No matter what bleed you have it gets fixed fast and it will fix heavy first if you have one.

i actually got Uley back from insurance, wasnt expecting it

I don't like using the Elcan Spectre along with a backup sight. Doing so forces you to make extra keyboard presses to move from the Spectre, then the built in iron sight, and then finally to your backup sight. The extra time it takes to do so may end up costing you your life.

just came back after 2 wipes and I am loving the VPO-209 again. Super budget around 55k with scope or 80k with suppressor.

With Fence, you can some ammo which isn't available at level 1, such as 7.62x54mmR.

Well now the tc-2000s will go up lol. I’ve been using those for a few days now, amazing helmet. Has saved me from several mosin rounds now lol

Gear fear is big with this one 😂

Best way to get bags is fence at the start 9 times out of 10 you can get a berkut or t20 or takedown currently.

I've been quite fond of the AUG A3 for my mid-tier 5.56 gun. The T4AUG Ranger suppressor is cheaper than many other 5.56 options, slap on your optic of preference and a light/laser and you're off to the races on a budget. 42 vertical recoil was nice last wipe, now this thing is a laser. It's more budget than the G36 and IMO wins out for my efficient kit 5.56 gun.

I just run a kedr with sp7 and any rat rig or similar. Always get it back its all trash but face taps are free and sp7 turns legs into spaggettii.

Did they remove ricochet chance from helmets this wipe?

In order to be able to play the Uley permanently you do not have to complete the quest. The rig is available on the Flea for around 50-60k with 100% durability. In my opinion it is the best budget. Yes, it's heavy and doesn't have a lot of space, but for the price it's by far the best protection you can get. Edit: The Thor is great armor. But you don't have to buy them from the Flea. There is a barter for 2 SDiarys from Ragman 2. SDiarys are around 35-40k on the Flea. That means without side plates but with front and back plates the armor costs 70-80k. In most cases, however, this is still far cheaper than buying it from the Flea and put new plates in it.

You can easily buy sport bag from fence at level one. It's better then T-bag for sure.

new gigabeef video pog :D

for the kedr you buy the kedr remove the 30 round mag, and then convert it to a Klin at level 1 work bench and get another 30 round mag

I like having at least two heavy bleed heals at all times as they are cheap and you get heavy bleeds way more often then light bleeds and using a medkit to fix one nukes it's healing ability

Fence has Tac Sports very often, if you only have access to level 1 traders, and you're willing to spend a little bit more.

Ive put a lvl 6 plate in a Kirasa and I’ve gotten it back from insurance 6 times already

I like the 74U up to lvl15 because of the recoil and the fast that 5.45 is EVERYWHERE! lol

I wonder why most gurus tend to just go with 3 mags. I have been using 5 or 6 with my ak74 builds using 5.45 ps ammo. I seem to come out with scarily small amounts to bullets left after getting pummels by waves of scavs not infrequently. This was very good video btw.

Thanks! Typically I'd rather take 3 mags of good ammo stuff (and not more so I don't run out across multiple raids) and repack in the raid between fights. Rarely need 90+ bullets in one engagement

I'm new to the game so I don't know how often he'll have it but, if Fence has half-masks for sale you can buy them and do the barter with Ragman for PACAs. I don't remember how much it was but I wanna say around half-price, maybe less though.

I died more times than any other wipe in .14. but I have yet to have an armor that actually needed to be repaired/plate. Not sure if I'm just only getting shot in the legs and face or what. But it's been a rough wipe. Stuck on colleagues pt1.... Tried about 10 runs last night and day before.

if you wanna survive more after flea, ALWAYS buy an adrenaline and hotkey it, pop it if you survive initial contact and want an aggressive push or retreat. losing it upon death outweighs the pros

You should definitely try and snipe some 7.62 t46 or fmj off of fence if you dont have the flea market. imo I'm not comfortable using sp, its just not good.

the best armor right now in my opinion is the FORT REDUT-M. it got a coverage of everything with soft plates LVL 3. a bit expensive but neck protection is too important this wipe. it's around 90-130K on flea market. I don't take armor with soft plates LVL 2 anymore because they are absolutely useless even against shotguns.

Lowkey this is a good video but the way I play, is that my system is that I use what i find in raid so I never really thought about creating loadouts

I've been going in with just a pistol, a med kit, a bandage and pain killers, and 1 extra mag. It's dirt cheap (I die too often to risk better stuff still while I'm learning lol) and I basically run in, try to kill a scav or someone ASAP and essentially cannibalize their entire kit and then that's what I run with until I either die or make it out lmao. It's kinda fun because you never know what you'll get, will I kill someone and get a ton of gear and a machine gun, or will I kill someone and get a pair of sunglasses, a double barrel shotgun and a beer xD (exactly what happened my last attempt, and surprisingly the first time I succesfully evaced!)

It may seem atrocious and your body may even reject the notion, but there IS NO such thing as a shotgun sweat - ahhh "but I have seen one!" You say, yes poor beloved. No, these callous and cold creatures are found amongst the sweats, living in the chaos of wanton abandon and lost children. But look closer and make not a noise and see the them as they are. The shotgunner only moves along the sweats, blending in to accomplish its goal. It cares not for your kit children, your trinkets are just that - trinkets, it cares not for skills, it knows no joy in taking your life to better itself, its completely detached from the call of the grind. No, my dears, they answer to a hidden one. Underneath those balaclavas and faceshields there is a nothingness. Vessels for the cause of fervorous hunger. It that calls for more SHOTGUN; never to be enough, only MORE. They drive forth, die, and rise again and again and again, mauling and tearing and bludgeoning their way through chads, sweats, and rrrats alike! A truly CRUEL and UNYIELDING hollow THING they are! They move the name of their NEW MASTER - not a simple a diety, no, A FORCE! ONE THAT PULLS THEM THROUGH THE DARK, OVERWHELMING THEIR ENEMIES WITH THEIR PRESENCE - CARING NOT FOR PRESTIGE, NOT FOR LOOT, NOR GEAR BUT ONLY TO FILL THE UNQUENCHABLE THIRST IN THE EVER EXPANDING GAPING MAW THAT HAS BECOME THEIR SOUL! THE ONLY THING THE SHOTGUN DEMANDS! THE ONLY THING THE SHOTGUNNER YEARNS FOR! TO BECOME BUT AN EVER-MOVING, EVER-GROWING, TRULY LIVING *WALL* OF BUCKSHOT. So be careful when reaching for that shotgun my dears, for some lost children are found...
