Triple Questing on Reserve - Raids 69 and 70 - Level 17

 I have three quests on Reserve: kill 5 raiders (only 2 to go), get med documents (bought the keys for 400K) and mark fuel tanks.  Let's do all three in one raid!

Raid 69 - Halfway Connected

Loadout: Vityaz SMG and Class 3 armor, meds, ears, two markers, the two keys in my secure container.  I spawned at the dome. Walked down the hill, marked the first tank, taking longer than I hoped because I forgot where the hole in the barbed wire is.  Descended into bunker via White Pawn. The bunker was empty - two dead bodies (scavs?) and open looted containers. No sign of anyone. I searched it completely, checking all the corners the raiders hide hoping that maybe one was here, but no luck. Checked the D2 switch - it was pulled already.  As I exited the D-2 hallways I heard footsteps by the office entry. I killed my flashlight, approached the big room and leaned out. The silhouette of someone in a penis helmet was standing outside the office door. I fired, emptying an entire mag into their head. He just stood there, then suddenly fell over dead and then shot me after dying. What? I retreated back down the hall and esmarched and healed. 

More footsteps - a scav crouched in the entryway of the big room at the end of my little hall. I leaned from where I was, put the reticle on his head and freed up some CPU resources. I checked the two bodies - both were scavs and didn't have anything worth looting. I carefully exited the big room towards king, with the intention of heading to the water. There was a scav in the bathroom. I aimed at him and fired - he was there, then he blinked out of existence, I fired more, he fired, he blinked back into existence and I killed him. What is going on? I checked my ping - it's fine. 

I crossed the water, got the two documents for Therapist, came back down and exited via D-2. Someone else had opened the doors leading to D-2. As I approached the last big cylinder rooms - the one with the safe at the far end, I could hear someone moving around in that room. I have my documents, I don't want to mess this up. I took the passage to the exit, closing doors behind me. Activated the switch, squeezed by the opening door and my extract timer did not appear.  What's going on? I moved around a little, waited. The steel door was now fully open, I checked my extracts.  Just then my extract timer appeared, it counted from 6 to 4 and then my screen went black and I was extracted.  

Time In Raid: 18 minutes, 11 Seconds
Exp: 2383
Kills (AI Scavs): Klim Gefors, Dron ChPU, Kolyan Zloy 
Ammo Used: 56, Hits: 6, Accuracy: 0.11, Damage to Body: 272

Mistakes

  • not knowing the map better - shouldn't have had to hunt for the opening in the barbed wire

Successes

  • completed Disease History quest. completed half of the fuel marking quest
  • survived

Raid 70 - In which I dumb

Loadout: same as before, but now have an AFAK in my secure container instead of keys.

Spawned in one of the vehicle bunkers by the trains. Made my way to the fuel containers next to the trains and marked it.  On my way to the underground bunker I encountered a scav - had a very awkward fight with him at too close range - but ultimately he did not scratch me, so no complaints.

I entered the King building - all the doors and gates that should be closed were closed.  There was loose loot lying around. That put me at ease. I closed the doors as I opened them, turned on my flashlight and descended into the bunker.  I carefully peeked from the top of the metal staircase that descends into the King antechamber. Seems empty.  But then I saw movement and a figure moved out of the big room to the corner where the raiders often lurk.  Yes!! Raiders!! I headed down the stairs and someone started firing on me without yelling first. OMG - that wasn't a raider, that's just a normal PMC. Why am I so dumb? 

Time In Raid: 8 minutes, 56 seconds
Exp: 140
Killed By: bbongseok -- Good game bbongseok
Killed: Fedot Tulovische (AI Scav)
Ammo Used: 61, Hit: 22, Accuracy: 0.3, Damage to Body: 500, Damage to Armor: 421

Mistakes

  • careless - too eager
  • died
  • have not seen a raider since raid 65. Possibly because I've died several times beforehand.

Successes

  • how did I do 500 damage to body firing on just one scav? And 421 armor? I didn't even bother looting him, and now I wonder if that was a mistake. But he wasn't a boss guard.

Field of Fire of Emplaced Weapons at Lighthouse USEC Base, for BEARS

On the new Lighthouse map, the USEC rogues are very aggressive against BEARS and will sight on you out to 300 meters or more, and will fire on you far quicker than they will on a USEC PMC.  The fixed guns are particularly dangerous as they can kill you with a single hit when you might not even realize you are close to the base. I made a map with some fields of fire noted on it. There are two mounted machine guns on building 1 , two mounted machine guns and a grenade launcher on building 2 , and a single machine gun on building 3 .  Plus there is a mounted machine gun and grenade launcher on the southwest corner of the base (lower right on this map).  I have noted the general field of fire of each of these weapons on the map. Obviously, there is a lot of cover, so just because you are standing in a red zone on this map doesn't necessarily mean you can be seen and hit. BUT, if there is any sort of line of sight (including through trees, bushes, walls and vehicles) and you a...

Prapor Is Unwell

 Got a message from Prapor, he's giving me a "boost" (his word, not mine). And he sent over an AK-74, an AK-101 and a god-damned Kel-Tec RFB assault rifle! This can't be no strings attached, but he didn't ask for any favors. I was sure he was going to ask me to go kill Jaeger or Putin or something. Instead, he says "everybody calls me Prapor, let's get acquainted."  Like he want us to go out to a movie or dancing?  Introducing himself _again_ plus being overly generous - something is definitely wrong with him. Dementia. He probably had a stroke.  He sent over a SKS-OP too. Something I can put a sight on. I'll take that out next.  I'll set the others aside in case he asks for them back or tries to call in a favor I can't return (e.g. dancing).

Punisher Part 1 and 2 - Raid 71 - 74 - Level 18

I need to kill five more scavs on Shoreline with an AKM to complete Punisher 1. Raid 71 - Quest Completed Loadout: I can buy HP from Jaeger again. Go figure. So I have an AKMSN with PSO scope, canted sight, and several mags of HP. One kill mag of PS/BP. I spawned in the village, close to the map edge. I set out immediately, encountering nobody in the village itself. Ascended to the bus station, which was empty. Listened for sounds above, but the resort was quiet. Made my way down to the power station.  I killed two scavs at the power station - but it was a struggle. Normally, the HP ammo just drops these guys, but today a) they had armor and b) the AKMSN was jumping all over the place. At one point I stopped and checked to make sure my SRVV muzzle brake and my foregrip were attached - I couldn't understand what was going on with the recoil.  The second scav messed me up badly. As he died I heard a third scav on the west side of the building - but I was in no position to fight ...
