Armor Stereotypes Part 2 | Escape from Tarkov 

I can't believe Leviticus caused the same mistake twice Honestly both embarrassing as a tragedy yet hilarious as a comedy

Let we all agree that PACA stands for Paper And Cardboard Armour?

I sure do love pistol stereotypes part 2!

Man these pistol stereotypes are wild

Can't wait for SKS magazine stereotypes next.

That one severe mistake on the armored rigs stereotypes video is definitely gonna haunt you now.

the slick off of teemu was having me rolling lol

How about we gaslight Leviticus by commenting "pistol stereotypes 2"? Edit: let's try and start a chain

PACA: ..."If you see someone jumping down a 3s-building to then wipe your trio before he hits the ground, odds are he fits into this category" - odds are, he's 2Lew :D

press vest '2 war crimes makes a proper engagement' joke had me choking on my breakfast

I went with THOR lvl 6 to finish the guide with teammates running around screaming "get down mr president", was fun

3:09 I’m pretty sure “heavy” and “light” armors are not classified off weight but instead off move speed penalties. I’m not sure why.

No one buys the gzhel? Huh? It’s like the most common end game Chad armor due to its light weight.

The pistol stereotypes 2 electric boogaloo goes crazy man

3:40 why you gotta call out my most used kit like that 😭😂

Dude, these pistols are crazy, the grach is my fav

"no one buys the gzhel" tf its one of the most common class 5's

For the question of .30-06 versus the 7.62NATO, the .30-06 m2 ap and the 7.62x51n m61 have almost identical ballistics and penetration. It's why the military abandoned the larger 30 cal for the 308 in the early Vietnam era when combined with reduced brass costs for the slightly shorter cartridge and the widespread adoption of .308 within NATO following the M14 adoption.

The redut-m is one of the best purchasable level 5 armors btw

Man I’m loving the pistol stereotypes part 2!!!

10:14 To be fair, it's probably not fitted with ESAPI plates that standard US soldier would get, probably some aftermarket/storebought plate. On a different note, I wonder how a slottable armor plate system would be for the vests that support it. Like, all plate carriers get higher durability, but plates can be switched out if wanted.

Great content bro hyped for the Helmet video!

finally pistol stereotypes 2

to keep this series going it'd be cool to see sight or tactical device stereotypes

look at this gromit the armor has evolved into a gun

"you ordered a slick off temu" 🤣

damn, that New York reload with DBs looks fun. Gonna give that one a go myself.

Zhuk-3 Press armor is the evolutionary perfection of body armor in Tarkov. Paca doesn't protect against anything, Class 6 is like a sheet of plywood against the standard ammunition of mid/late wipe. But press armor, it's like the holy grail of scav protection. Once you come to the realization that PMCs are going to pen your armor nomatter what, you look to what will most effectively protect you against scavs, and the press armor is it. Lightweight, cheap, durable, repairs immaculately, comes back in insurance 99% of the time, protects against pistol and shotgun rounds, and is not nearly as blue as people think when you're actually in a raid. Paca is meme armor for lightweight builds, press armor is like a trade secret kept by the Barry Allens of tarkov.

Can't wait for Rifle stereotypes next

really the pistol stereotypes of all time

the zhuk is only good because it ALWAYS comes back on insurance LOL and it repairs really damn well

I've used the thor ic a few times, always after finding it in a cache. Generally speaking something fucky then happens and I don't survive the raid. Like the goons appearing out of nowhere and melting me in .2 seconds with 50 shots to the torso. Or the sky starts speaking Chinese and I take an AP round to the top of the head.

3:57 the "agains" line up with the reload animation

Joke's on you, now rogues on lighthouse have a mbss armored rig 99% of the time, long gone are days of good armor farming

honestly after doing all those ragman tasks for the gzhel it grew on me, that and the barter for it is very good early on before people start getting more barters that need gold chains or they get to chumming.

Always a joy when you upload, hope you’re feeling a bit better now!

thanks you, for take a time to do this .We appreciate

I do love pistol stereotypes 2!

The korund is missing a very specific group! those that, after getting prapor level 3, will use this as their default armor and will not run less than T5 armor for the rest of the wipe

When headwear stereotypes

The MSA Gallet TC: either a chad who didn't bother to grind ooooor someone listening to the Black Hawk Down soundtrack on loop.

You need to wear a PACA in a later quest.

good shit love the vids

love your vids 🔥🔥🔥

Crazy bad take about the Redut tbh, it's objectively the strongest tier 5 for cost

That MF chugging purified water got me LOL

Ive seen the THOR IC once and that was one factory when I legged somebody from 30 meters

another awesome video

Tan Ulach: stankrat has multiples of your dogtag in his stash

Now we need Map Stereotypes.

Love your vids man. Lets me enjoy Tarkoc without the stress.

killa helmet: you don't wanna get headshot and you're willing to trade your eyesight and hearing for it

Low key i wanna do that factory samurai build now lol

pretty cool of you to get the eh voice guy to do a cameo

I love your content man

Ah yes, makarov the class 2 vest

Paca - you like to waste money Slick - you like to waste money Zhuk 3 - perfection

You ordered a slick from Temu xD

ngl using the paca mid wipe while doing that one quest was actually really nice. cus i didnt have the heavy lvl 4 armor weight and somehow it actually protected me from player so that was cool.

3:22 "heavy" as it covers more bodyparts than "light"

The 6B47 Ratnick helmet is also a "I wanna roleplay a Russian soldier" piece of armor. I know this because I'm guilty of it lmao

to add to the paca: if it's a low level, then probably broke and what you said. if its a high-level, they are stuck doing the punisher task line and you just zeroed their vest with the greatest ammo you had in your magazine. and the tarbank armor: if the person you killed had that armor found-in-raid, you absolutely feel bad for the guy, cause he is still stuck doing the start-up, and you just reset the loop of him having to rat for another one. DRD armor: you never call it by it's real name, you call it the red paca or if you are a weeb with hours on amogus: "sussy baka"-vest Trooper armor: Also you see the trooper armor on week one on every. single. fresh. USEC. faction. soldier. Killa armor: you svt/avt-40 farm killa every darn time.

DRD is my favorite pistol of all time.

I basically exclusively use the zabralo as my main PVP armor, everyone uses the M4 right now so you can get away with a ton of aggro pushes by just eating 55A1 and then 1 tapping them to the head. People underestimate how useful that armor is just cuz it has heavy movement debuffs, its only like 300k to buy as well

We have a slick at home. The slick at home: Kora-Kulon

6B2 is mostly used by those wishing to save a few bucks, mostly starters.

The Thor IC becomes the most common armor during the end of wipe max traders + 1 rouble event since its the only class 6 armor that can be bought with roubles.

untar man drinking purified water

Babe wake up new Leviticus video dropped

I used the THOR IC like, 3 times before. All those times, I went into a firefight and usually came out with 2 blacked out arms, and redded legs and head. The thorax and stomach, however, came out at about 75-80% hp, so if you got a good helmet, which I didn't, then it's kinda good, since I went up against a bunch of PMCs and Scavs in all of the raids I've worn it. Died to a head-eyes while I had it on though

13:56 Who remembers when 6B43 6A was needed for first Skier mission? xD

Not gonna lie, I run the DRD since it's pretty cheap and a good vest all things considered, cover up the red with an UMKA rig and it's good to go

PRESS is actuall A Tier no joke. Always get it back, super good repairability, not expensive.

i have a bottle of vitamin d tablets on my desk tank you very much

i think i was that scav you killed at like 4:30, if you ever see this, check if he says anything about the bodys. :D

Never seen a thor armor before? XD

.308 has more penetrative power due to its relative velocity to its mass. This is why contemporary armor can now stop up to 3 rounds of .308 at 5 meters before failure but can't stop 6.8

Zabralo is the best choice after max strength and endurance

Im very confused about the Redut-M it has great effective durability and "only" costs 200k, twice as much as the korund, but you also get 2.5 times as much effective armor. Dont know why it would be considered bad... they dont drop alot but when you need to buy an armor and dont wanna spend 500k and want one that will survive more than one bullet, then the Redut-M is a perfect solution

I'm surprised the Korund VM didn't get a Punisher joke. (iirc it is/looks similar to the armor worn by Ray Stevenson's Punisher in Punisher Warzone. Rest in Peace bro.)

You forgot the hex grid is absolute drip.

I wonder how these stereotypes are gonna change when the new armor hitboxes are implemented. Because small form armors are gonna drop in usage since they give 0 neck and side torso protection. Making anyone with decent aim with a shotgun loaded with buckshot terrifying to come across.

my favorite pistol stereotype was number 7

how dare you go through a cold. Unbelievable...

sight steriotypes

Pistol stereotypes, yaay

USEC armor is peek aesthetics

6b23-1 DF

I wish some of the bulkier vests were even somewhat of an option... but frankly even with the armor update coming up sometime Soon(TM), I still feel unless something changes with the weight or the weight system it's still going to be just purely light armors everywhere. The heavy vests just are way to slow to move around in and feel like trash to wear with any amount of kit with them (hell the zabralo by itself is on par weight wise with other lighter full kits)

SSh-68: The singular opening note to the Soviet anthem.

I hate with such fury that the weighted up the kirasa vest, it was my all time favorite armor just for lightweight runs, now that its heavy its made useless for light runs and with the same protection it had before it cant hold up in its new weight class

sonundsmith of tarkov XDDD

Are you the real Leviticus Cornwall? the legend

Maybe add the „use it on factory runs“ category

I mean, consider the barter for 6B43 is just around 400k, I actually use it sometimes.

I might aswell leave a question to the general community for the helmet sterotypes video: would yall also agree that a lot of helmet choices are based superstition? I know that alot of it also comes down to cost, effectiveness, etc but I also feel since a helmet failing to stop a round is likely to instantly kill you, there isn't as large of a basis for what each helmet does better over the other. It mostly relies on who you fight first and what their plan is (ie, head eyes buckshot scav that will render the ulach useless vs hyper sweat m993 user that renders the Allyn useless). idk, I know ive had a bias against the SSH--68 because I've always gotten headshot using it. So maybe its more of a me thing

We need this music in tarkov hideout

These pistol stereotypes are me IRL

Thors are used by those rare player's who go heavy on labs and they push u around a corner with a alta and a sa drum mag

Back when the altyn was tradeable from ragman, my normal kit would be a zabrala, altyn, and ash-12. Had elite strength and endurance back when I did this often so it worked fine. I'll always miss this time of tarkov :( took this shit to interchange and reserve all day long
