So I've been playing Tarkov for 2 years on and off. Recently really getting into it and just got a bitcoin farm. Naturally I need graphics cards (GPUs). Time for Interchange runs, right? However, I learn the harsh reality of naked, hatchetlings rushing the tech stores taking everything with a no loss/risk.
My response was to run ear pros, sks with 20 round mag, using PS rounds, and backpack. With that loadout, I rush the tech stores as much as I can. I'm succeeding so far since I'm able to kill scavs (not killa as I've learned twice) and the pesky hatchetlings while earning a few GPUs. This made me wonder if I'm considered a "rat" or if I'm simply running a "light loadout."
P.S: it's been a wonderful change of pace from slowly moving around. The adrenaline of the first 5 min firefights are awesome. Just asking from a terminology standpoint.
