Herstory Begins Now posted:I like the current balance: you're rewarded for thinking ahead and you only have to look up that list of quest items once per season, and you still get the tension in-raid of trying to figure out what to grab and having to remember what hideout items you need. Not saving every quest item in advance also does not hinder progression all that much because the main limiting thing on most early questing is just # of raids run and there's nearly always something productive you can be doing while looking for whatever items you need currently. Give me a piece of paper I can keep in my special item slot that I can use to track what I need in-game but to use it I physically have to pull it out and un-crumple it and read it in raid and the handwriting is kinda poo poo. Players who kill me can't take the paper off me but they can read it

The only reason I keep guns I find is so I don't have to gently caress around w/ the lovely modding system before another raid. Just use whatever the idiot I killed had even if it's bad, top up the ammo, go again.

I just fill out all the slots with the best trader-available mods minus the sight+muzzle device and save it. I became pro-sell all guns after that.

Then I have to check poo poo to make sure I can buy it if I make it a preset. So then I just gave up and run whatever I find lol

My secret to stash management is just to have 4 junk boxes for all my trash. Gives me plenty of room and also makes it so I only have to dump stuff to the flea once I have about 10 of the same item to let me more efficiently use the limited sell slots. Also 2 med cases, one for stims and one for everything else.

They're refreshing! Depends on the items. I'm guessing you're asking about metabolism though so no, you wouldn't get any xp for metabolism if you're maxed out already and then eat or drink. On longer raids I try to bring cans of Max energy because it gives you a 5min stress resistance debuff, and at the end of that time you get immunity xp, which reduces the negative effects of food and meds. It's also an easy way to stay on top of keeping your energy and thirst topped up, giving you a little metabolism xp when you're below max. Edit: oh I must be mistaken..I consider myself a noob at this game so maybe don't listen to me.

You get immunity exp everytime a negative status effect wears off and the max energy gives you a mild one for cheap. I think there's exp skill fatigue in raid?

Three scav runs in a row tonight I've been sprayed down by another pscav at the extract. Did BSG break scav karma penalties, because I'm getting flashbacks to the before times

Kazinsal posted:Three scav runs in a row tonight I've been sprayed down by another pscav at the extract. I also get killed a lot. My theory is that new players haven't figured out the mechanics of scav runs yet. Or struggle with telling the difference between scavs and PMCs. I can't tell the difference either, so I've just resorted to not shooting anyone when I'm a scav.

Even for people who “care” about scav karma, not everyone cares about getting to or maintaining >6, which is the only reason not to kill player scavs when it’s advantageous. Like I generally wont kill other player scavs but if one looks extra juicy or is playing very suspiciously I’ll spend that karma to crack them open and see what’s inside.

Dunno if anyone else here plays Arena, but it appears that we've got a sort of pre-wipe event going. BSG unlocked a bunch of kits for everyone and gave people 5 mil roubles to play around with them

I'm doing the "find morphine" quest for therapist and I'm a little surprised that the "find morphine in raid" part counts if you find it on a scav run.

Jakosa posted:I'm doing the "find morphine" quest for therapist and I'm a little surprised that the "find morphine in raid" part counts if you find it on a scav run. For the turn-in quests it just matters that the item has the "Found in raid" tag, which it can have from being found in raid (doesn't matter if PMC or Scav), crafted in hideout or even as part of a scav box return.

There are two subgoals in the quest: - Find morphine in raid - Turn in 'found in raid' morphine. It's the first part that seems to work during scav raids. Or maybe I found one during a PMC run and forgot.

Jakosa posted:There are two subgoals in the quest: "Found in raid" is a bit of a misnomer. It just means that you have to turn in morphine that has the "in raid" status. This will also include morphine crafted in the hideout, so you can complete the quest without even going into a raid.

The scav traitor rules seem a little weird. If I shoot at another scav without hitting them, if they then shoot back and hit me, they become a traitor, correct? So if I have some good armor and a good gun, I can shoot at other scavs and goad them into shooting me. And then kill them for loot and Fence rep?

I started up SPT after a friend convinced me it was worthwhile, and holy poo poo is it ever. It's like 85% of my online experience (in that I rarely extract and generally am bad about things) except there's actual loot because there's not any vacuum hacks taking it all. Bunch of tweaks here and there and I don't think I'll be going back to live.
