I run the 7.62 variant and have been lucky enough to find a handful of the AKM suppressors for it. PS has been good this wipe although I’ve certainly noticed a big increase in m80/m62 last couple days.
Last wipe I learned how critical silencers are. This wipe I run exclusively silenced VPO. Used to run AKMs early, but broadcasting "IM HERE FIGHTING" to the entire map is just no good.
Man you are absolutely crushing it on this channel. You were already one of my favorite Tarkov YT’rs but this wipe you have just been on fire. I’m excited to watch this channel blow up. Much respect, you deserve it!
Thanks! Making the most of the early wipe to put out a tonnes of vids - will slow down again as we pregress but for now keeping on chugging so long as there is enough useful stuff to say :)
I love the .366 weapons. I already enjoyed using the 209 with the 10 rounders for a high ergo dmr style gun. Though it makes me wish for a middle ground 20 round mag. Also tip for people: always check ammo of scavs with a .366 gun as they can spawn with ap-m. Sometimes get really lucky and come away with 120 rounds of ap-m
The silenced TT actually has a second niche - it's the cheapest weapon available for quietly shooting out lights in various maps. Not a huge one, but it is a use. (And doesn't give away what your main weapon is if someone is close enough to hear it.)
I think I'm gonna start running that suppressed TT build as a sidearm so I'll always have an option to take out scavs quietly when the need arises. Thanks for giving me the idea! I love the content and the channel by the way, you're one of my favorite tarkov content creators and my go-to for practical tarkov advice and info. Great stuff!
Funny I got one of the suppressed TTs off a scav and I used it for a raid and kinda liked it got the TT trade off of mechanic and used the barrel and suppressor off my scav version and was a scab killing machine for a few raids I even got a PMC kill with it when my AK ran dry and I new York reloaded to the TT and got the kill
I like carrying a secondary for scavs just like this TT. Keep it quiet and swift and cheap. Avoid giving away your position and don't break the bank. Also, save ammo for real fights.
Little word of advice for anyone wanting to get good suppressors once you hit lvl 2 traders. Save your RAM and only 4 of them gets you the hybrid which can be used on most guns.
after you get more money UMP OEM suppressor is just pure enjoyment while playing with it. Also FMJ is good weapon so i recommend it after unlocking Peacekeeper 2. RFB is godlike on Lighthouse and Woods provided by Skier 2 with silencer from barter Mechanic 2. MDR 5.56 is O.K. with M856A1 after compliting The Cult Part 1.
Don't ignore that silenced TT. Yes it's hard to aim, but you can learn and train around it. It's *very* quiet, very affordable, and is excellent for silent scav kills, esp. at night
I actually got that VPO-215 build on a scav and learned about it that way. I find myself using the 209 more (even without the AK100 handgrip in 0.13) but I'll have to give it a try.
i wish the Markov PB was a lvl1 trader gun as by the time you get prapor 3 you have far better suppressed pistols, having the pb and the tt be the level 1 suppressed pistols would pit them nicely against each other
I've been leaving comments on your vids for a long time in reference to the 209 suppressed build for so long that I'm happy to see you've actually included it in a video.
I used to think that TT pistol was ugly as sin but picked one up a couple years ago cause I like them now lol. Need to work on the trigger though, it won't go all the way back and fire unless you pull it a certain way. Maybe I f'ed something up putting it back together after cleaning it lol. Kinda weird they made that 762x25 AP-M round go way up in damage isn't it? Usually it seems as pen goes up, damage goes down.
i wish suppressor audio report was more realistic, as it stands you have to get a forensic team to analyze the trajectory of the bullet to have any idea of where the sniper shooting at you could be since its like absolutely silent beyond 100 meters or some shit like that
yo gigabeef couple vids back you said that biggest flav of RFB is that you cant put lasser on it but i was thinking if does integrated laser on Holosun HS401G5 reflex sight work just like regular laser i mean if it helps recoil did you try it or know about it?
Yeah it doesn't give the benefit sadly! BUT there is a way to do it since 12.12 using the rangefinder, I did it here th-cam.com/video/bFE0OORyZWQ/w-d-xo.html
I love the pilad lol. Why does everyone hate that scope? Love that clean crosshair. Before the PK06 was made into fuzz mode, I ran the Pilad and canted PK06 as an end game choice 😂 TAC30 is my babe now.
Hey, in short not worth using yet imo! I'm going to use 5.45 this wipe I think in the midgame, previously I've done the peacekeeper thing and unlocked 56a1 using the mdr (or scar these days) but pp and bt got buffed pen so I think they're the obvious choice now tbh
@@Gigabeef ok no problem thanks for the reply! Yep I've been using 5.45 PP and it works ok, recoil is a bit mad but it's doing the job so far. Thanks so much and love the vids!
Kinda shocked they didn’t add your streamer item this wipe with all the quality content you force-feed this community. Seriously, how could a beginner or intermediate player not rely on your advice to stay afloat or flourish in Tarkov?
LOL are you kidding. They'd need to add about 100 streamer items if they're gonna add one for Giga, for all the other similar sized channels. No offense but he's just not a big channel like that (yet).
@@AHoardyBoi the new expansion to light house has some high end ammo spawn in the small tower next to the light house with the safe in it. The ammo is in the box on the table in the secound floor of the small tower. It’s not alway ap but it’s usually decent to high end ammo amount depends on your luck
I honestly can't tell the difference in recoil, my personal opinion is that recoil bonuses are kind of worthless in the early game due to how the system works! But its personal preference :) tbh 2 ergo also doesn't matter so you can probably choose either
@@Gigabeef I kinda can but I use semi auto on most weapons and "feel" that recoil reduction helps alot but that is a feeling plus slower ADS never bothered me like it does some people save the ridiculous things like a zero ergo FN
I will do - some are 20 but the majority are not yet. I need to get to 20 myself so I have mechanic 2 as well, but I'm v close so shouldn't be too long before I take a look!
What's your favourite suppressed weapon in the early wipe?
no
Really just a modded vpo that shoots 366

Damn that's good luck! I love apm, what a round
Yea i got 30~ AP a bunch of times last patch
Haven't played much this wipe tho
Yeah, and do the same with any Vepr Hunter scavs cause same with M80 to M61

Yeah not one I'm used to honestly but wanted to put the option out there!
I use the bolt 215 a lot on woods to scav hunt. Once I get nvgs, a night run on woods becomes a turkey shoot
Honestly, the silenced TT is one of my favorite pistols. It's really nice for silently clearing out scavs without alerting other pmcs.
my favorite suppressed early wipe weapon is one i looted off someone else

For cheap ak builds the M1-B gas tube hand guard combo is great imho since after selling back parts it costs almost nothing
Thank you, superuseful, fits exactly my playstyle.
I just appreciate this guy with every video he makes.
Your work rate is insane Bro. This video is what I needed lol
Cheers :) pretty flat out atm haha
Stirrup can be quite hard. Me who finished it first try and still hasnt completed it because of the minus rep. D
Thems the real strats *headtap*
Biggest pet peeve these videos having pictures of the player like why do I care I want the info
props to this super interesting kind of video, I already hit lvl 24 but I find 'em really useful! big up from italy ❤️
Thanks!!
This is absolutely incredible. I love it!
Yeah nice how it works out, 3 builds for 3 different situations

Tt pistol is almost useless - when i get one on a scav it just drop it and the mags. what am i going to do? Wound a ai scav?
stirrup quest as you mentioned is easier the earlier you do it to be honest.
Agreed
I love the pilad lol. Why does everyone hate that scope? Love that clean crosshair. Before the PK06 was made into fuzz mode, I ran the Pilad and canted PK06 as an end game choice 😂 TAC30 is my babe now.
Tac30 is a beaut
Huh. I might actually use the TT now. Nice cheap quiet little scav killing gun.
I found a 2 AK's with supressors on at level 2
Hey gigabeef, love the content! Could you possibly do a video on 556 ammo for this wipe soon? I'm not sure if those guns are worth using yet
Hey, in short not worth using yet imo! I'm going to use 5.45 this wipe I think in the midgame, previously I've done the peacekeeper thing and unlocked 56a1 using the mdr (or scar these days) but pp and bt got buffed pen so I think they're the obvious choice now tbh

Great vid, many thanks.

You can find ap 366 ammo pretty easy if you check lighthouse

That one for vpo dont suppres sound its only for recoil
VPO-209 does sound louder with supressor than without. Is that client side only? Did anyone checked?
Great video!
Thanks!
I think the skier RK grip with recoil reduction is better than the ergo grip
