Lmao. Just scav into reserve and run around collecting ammo. I tend to find pp and bt all the time and occasional bs and bp. Lots of ps and always pass on US
Mindset is the most important. Aping exactly what you or anyone else does is less likely to be effective, the farther you diverge from a given playstyle.
I didn’t understand the loop but now I do, so simple! Thank you for the thought process behind them it’s really helpful. I think mindset and in depth concepts is very needed for Tarkov and a niche that needs filling since it does have a lot of MMO style qualities. Thanks for the hard work!
I've always found salad packing mags to be pointless because 90% of your first few rounds in each mag are with interactions with scavs or other AI where you may or may not use multiple rounds. There's so many variables, there's no guarantee you spend your initial high pen ammo effectively during a fight with a PMC now you're left over with less optimal ammo at the bottom of your mag, what happens when you gotta dump a mag into multiple targets in succession. You're better off using well rounded ammo as a whole mag than staggering high pen vs dmg rounds. Just dump your best ammo like theres no tomorrow! It does no good sitting in the stash.
@@TickleMePinkGaming Yeah I agree, its definitely preference and tuned to playstyles. I'm not claiming my ways the right way thats just how I like to do it. Its a great video for understanding the mechanic and how it can be used to an an advantage.
I have a designated scav mag that lives in the bottom right corner of my bag. If i have a moment before i engage with scavs, i install it with the inventory command. Doing this puts the initial magazine in my rig. Even if my rig becomes fully populated and reloading would cause me to drop a mag, it will just be the scav mag that is lost. If i finish the engagement calmly, then I manually pull it out and put it back in the corner. Refill it with whatever garbage ammo you find through the raid, or bring a loose stack in the bag for your scav mag. I tend to find plenty of ps ammo, so that's what i would use for the 545 example.
The ammo preset is one of the best QoL upgrades we've ever gotten. It gets used before almost every raid i do now. Even super basic 10 ap, 15 filler and 5 tracer packs make a world of difference. Never thought of looping tracers in for point fire, but that will be worked into my CQB packs going forward
Your voice and overall demeanor reminds me of a buddy I know exclusively through gaming. He's a real fuggin gem, so I assume you're probably a gem as well.
Love the in depth & mindset. I just watched ur stim video too & loved seeing how you utilize all of these seemingly small mechanics in tarky. WoW still affecting the way we play games & think about them I love it I’m ready for my toaster bath
Absolute amazing video brother, this was a much needed video for the community never heard of you til today, but glad I did! I hope this helps the algorithm get to more people! ❤🎉
Just a heads up - last time I tested this the magazine packing will not automatically use NON found in raid bullets first. It just uses whatever is in your stash.
My first idea just from the first few seconds of watching the magazine preset packing process was to put tracers on the bottom of my magazine so i have a visual indicator as to when my magazine is low (in the event that I am spraying or fighting for too long that I can't pack mags or check magazines)
i am using a 7.62 mag with 5pp then 5 ma1 ap top loaded, 1 us then 2 bp in loop and bottom load however many pp depending on mag size to finish them off. recoil feels nice, head tappers on top with max armor behind it and followed up with recoil and good enough armor pen
Thank you Brother I don't think the masses know about this same as alot of folks don't rly know how to use the gun preset to build a gun out they go off memory which trader has what
Thank you! This was a very helpful video. Especially about pen and ricochet chance. I was sniping a guy on Shorelie the other day (doing my Shooter Born) and his helmet bounced 3 of my bullets! True story. Will use lower pen ammo from now on when doing that quest.
Damn bro, came back to tarkov after a few wipes away and recently found your channel. You're absolutely killin the tarkov guides bro, best content i've seen by far!
I load my pistol mags with 10 rounds AP6.3 on top and PST in "the loop". If you just pick the top amount of bullets and only put one in the loop, it will fill the loop to the bottom of the mag.
Great vid, i usually just run a 10/20 split or 50/50 split of higher pen on top and then PS type ammo below, then a stack of the high pen to top mags off with in raid. Also, I just joined your discord yesterday and had some raids with the gents. Good times! 👍
I still don't like this because it lacks consistency, I'd much rather have the same ammo all across the mag so I know if I spray someone I still have the same tier of ammo to continue shooting after a spray. If it really comes down to using 2 different ammos, I take 2 different mags, one with high tier ammo for dealing with PMCs and one with low-ish tier ammo for scavs, but I like consistency. Great vid on the subject tho!
definitely cool to see you pushing the system. I personally have been just checkering with BT or PP, and was actually curious what others think - checker (BT PP BT PP) or top loading (BT BT PP PP) mags, which is better?
This is a very cool feature but Im already spending a lot of time setting up before raid with this I would defo spend more time in stash than in raids :D I will look into this for sure when i dont feel like playing a raid but just tinkering with builds/hideout/flee.
I once was using the rpd short for fun but I mistakenly loaded a 100 round drum mag with BP 7.62. Instead of PS BP mix. I ran into a 4 man squad so I just went prone and held down mouse one until they were almost all dead but one. I think I only hit 12 out of 100 round drum.
IVE BEEN CONTROL DRAGGING THE WHOLE WIPE LIKE AN IDIOT AND FROM TIME TO TIME ID SIT BACK AND PONDER ESOTERICLLY IF THERE WAS A BETTER WAY TO BE DOING THIS
Yo TMP, i wanted to try and use the hybrid sights both black and tan, but to me it looks like they recoil really weird on the *1x" version it seems like your reticle stays high and the bullets actually land low,as if the guns had the previous recoil system. Is this something you have noticed thats kinda niche with those particular optics?
3:17 "let's go ahead and try and go ahead and load this 10-round magazine so if I go ahead and I..." It's almost painful how good your videos are but how difficult they are to listen to. Almost all sentences have a "go ahead", several have two or even three "go aheads". Funny enough, I remember watching you a couple wipes back - didn't remember your name, but I remember getting aggravated hearing "we're gonna go ahead and go ahead and go to Factory" or smth similar.
@@TickleMePinkGaming bs or bp in the loop is ok, 7n40 on top for the tier 4 armor penetracion and the recoil control, bt bottom if you have ammo issues, your 5 low demage bs bullets on top don't make any difference...about you extracting wt my loot...you never have the oportunitty to see me
@@TickleMePinkGaming most people if their lucky hit 25% of their shots. So only 1 of those first 5 are going to hit. On top of that plates don't take damage if the bullet doesn't pen. It's not like the old system where top loading would work like this.
The real truth is that your loadout is wrong too. I see like ppl loading 10 w74 on top of the mag and mediocre (sost/pp/bt/ps762) as rest of the mag. What you goin do when you miss the half of the mag in front of me with bad aim-lock or smth else situational like cover-fire to humble the enemy... 1-1-1 is godtier loadout change my mind.
It's min-maxing to a degree that will 99% of the time not matter, but CAN potentially secure an extra kill. Personally, I think getting all the ammos together seems like a nightmare, so I wouldn't use it ASIDE from bottom loading tracers into my magazines so that, if I'm in an extended fight or spraying, I know when my magazine is low based on the fact that it's suddenly firing tracers. Edit: Plus I bring ammo to pack in raid anyways so not 100% helpful but still interesting to try.

I'm thinking of red tracers at the end of large mags to signal, that you are running low on ammo in that mag while shooting.
Yes I've been doing this as well, very clever.
Isnt this why tracers were invented?
@@unsubme2157no, meant for what he said: to see where your rounds are going on a machine gun. Generally loaded every 4-5 rounds on the belt.

Putting a tracer round in where you have 10/5 bullets left to know when you approach reloading without checking?
