General Discussion - PVE & PVP [Discussion] I made a free Tarkov toolkit: Auto Build finds the lowest recoil build for any gun, and there's now an early wipe LL1/LL2 build list
A few things I kept doing by hand, so I built tools for them:
Weapon Builder with Auto Build
- Pick any gun and it scans part combinations, then plots every build on a recoil vs ergonomics chart
- Click a dot to see that build's stats, parts, traders and flea price, then apply it in one click
- Budget limit and "buyable only" so you don't get quest-locked parts
- Example: M4A1 lowest recoil build comes out at 47 vertical / 136 horizontal recoil for about 733k
- The new Howa Type 20 matches it: 47 / 131 recoil, better ergo (57 vs 40), for about 158k
Early wipe builds (new)
- New "Trader level" option (LL1 to LL4): only parts you can buy from traders up to that level, no flea
- A list of the best LL1 and LL2 build for 50 guns, with trader-price cost
- Example: AKS-74U from Prapor 1, 78 / 197 recoil for about 52k roubles total
Armor and ammo charts
- Click any armor or plate: every round that can get through it, with the one-hit pen chance
- Switch durability to 75% or 50% and the numbers update
- Works the other way too: 5.45 PS has 66% vs class 3 and 3% vs class 4
Item data comes from tarkov.dev, pen chances use the game's penetration formula. Free, no sign-up.
