A few things...
I was wrong about flea market being 20 this wipe, I remember now that it is level 15 this wipe, however this does not change my opinion on the ZSh-1-2m.
When I mention the Killa helmet and Maska are the same thing.
Shattered facemask would be A tier because its cheap and I love the idea of an RP airsoft mask bouncing AP ammo.
Hjelm was that new Helmet I mentioned, it would probably be B or C tier due to the fact that it is more expensive but is similar to a ratnik.
It’s ok, great vid tho bro
Fast MT has SLAAP plate u dumbass
vulkan 5 faceshield is 7 plexiglass to ragman are you good? lol
You can buy a ratnik cheaper then the SSh-68 with the barter, which is funny
I dunno what it is but I’ve had the zsh with the face shield save my life. I’ve also been saved by the chad z tier condors
Using almost any UN armor is like using a flashlight but you still can't see the dark
step 3 activate tesla coils around your compound to fry the blue helmets
Step 4 bask in eternal salvation and glory in God’s kingdom
zsh is underrated dude
u cant see the dark in any case
Virgin Tacikool Sweaty vs Chad Blueberry Boi
“You see Ivan, when you rush them with hatchet, and no helmet”
“They are terrified because they think you have no fear”
“When truly, you just have no money”
Lol
A proverb in China:
"A man wearing no shoes does not fear one with shoes."
Untar helmet is best for uncoordinated new teams. Everyone wears one and you dont have to wonder who is enemy
I may have to implement this. My friends and I are new to this game and they can’t seem to make it 60 seconds into a raid without mag dumping me
My buddies would still shoot each other 😅
Until you run into a group doing the same thing.
@@Denim_Chicken 😂😂😂😂😂
people who use untar helmet:
hehe boi
The Pumpkin says "I don't care about my life, I don't care about my gear, I don't care about shit apart from ending your fucking existence in the most pantsshitingly terrifying way possible"

the ooga booga helmet
(HHH LAUGH)
YOU ARE IT.
HIT SOMEONE WITH YOUR MELEE TO TAG THEM.
,, Helmets are not for protection, but to scare the enemy " - My wise friend (Got head eyes-d after the sentence)
As opposed to before the sentence
Say that to the Altyn Boys, they mop the floor with you, unless you can leg meta them
I my squad of 3 got surprised by a guy who saw us chad'd out and voip'd that they don't want trouble
Could have fully killed us because my comp froze just then and one of us knew they existed until they spoke, but yeah absolutely bud do your thing and extract! The one raid we all ran as thick as possible and it saved us from intimidation alone! Thx for using voip woods friend
@@planetside9714 Altyn is pretty fucking scary tho
@@historyneeerd11 yeah, they are scary, because you can't headshot them.
I like how he gets more and more shirts on, took me very long to realize it.
the higher the Tier - the more Flannel . I approve.
The ratnik is just better than ssh since it's most of the time just cheaper if you do the barter trade plus the minor stuff like ergo and turn speed is better than the ssh plus night vision
if you also take the material into consideration, the ratnik definitely takes the lead. its out of aluminium, so it has 42 effective durability. the ssh has 43. 1 less effective durability but its cheaper, has better stats and can attach nvgs. you also dont look like you're wearing a penis tip on your head
Ratnik also have ears protection right?
@@mrtoxic9059 it does
also protects ya ears but yeah agreed ratnik slapnik
also people forget that you cant use certain headsets with the ssh that you can use with the 6b47
You’d be surprised how many people mistake the ratnik for an altyn at a glance. People just don’t go for headshots if they think you have an altyn
Surprisingly, i've had great luck with UN armor. When you're starting out, it's an awful armor to wear but when you play defensively they won't see you first and you can take them out just fine. Wouldn't always recommend it based on what you're doing. Sniping or waiting in a field, it's an awful choice but wearing it at night nobody can see colors very well like that from far away if you're not standing in light.(I am sure it's possible, but i'm speaking from my experience)
makes great use in factory on night raids where you're bringing a gun with a big light or a budget loadout. If you're shining the sun at someone, doesn't really matter if you wear blue or pink they will at least see your outline more likely than not.
As in the real life, your kit changes based on your mission.
The Altyn irl is made of titanium, and I've seen it stop every type of handgun round including 5.7x28, which is meant to be armor piercing
Let me guess, @Oxide?
sure it will, but not through the faceshield
@@es0x nah the face shield will stop ss190 irl. It can technically stop 5.45 but only for one round
@@itexistsbeyondtimedeeznuts7949 well yeah I believe this guy is referencing the glass on the face shield which is only able to stop 1-2 9x18
@@itexistsbeyondtimedeeznuts7949 no, the faceshield does not stop a 5.7 blacktip. The helmet did, the faceshield did not. The faceshield fails to stop a normal jacketed 9x19 round
so… ears protection wasn’t even mentioned once? i feel like it’s a pretty important attribute to a helmet, especially with things like the EXFIL, airframe, bastion etc that lack ears unless you sink money into mods, and it’s the reason i personally will take a ULACH any day over any of those helmets, because you can actually get shot in the ears from the front, even through a face shield
cope
@@idonnie9416 What do you mean cope? Cope with what? The fact that your inteligence can estimated to be around room temperature numbers? This has to be the most nonsensical use of cope ever

Lshz -2dtm is a goddamn lifesaver. It's been my primary helmet this wipe If I'm wearing level 4 armor or budget level 5 armor. Sure it doesn't save you from any of the high powered rifles but a lot of people are still out there running SMGs/shotguns. making you an immortal God. It can even save you from things such as BT or 6A1 some of the time since the helmet won't completely block the round but it'll absorb just enough damage where you don't get one shot
It's also really good looking with the cover
its unfortunately over 100k for all attachments tho
i think
@@pandakilla4757 Aventail isn't mandatory, cover is dirt cheap and the visor is plexiglass trade
this is for flea. the helemt itself i remember it being maybe 80k? i might be thinking of another helm tho
@@pandakilla4757 The base helmet is 55k from traders or 40-45k on flea. At that price I don't get why you wouldn't just run another helmet that can also block all the smgs/shotguns you want while also having a high ricochet chance for less money.
Peacekeeper: So you need to kill all these scavs while wearing the most useless and bright armor possible. Have fun on shoreline
Bro that was funny and informing at the same time, we need more of these, keep going
Tagulla mask is my favorite. If you expose the back of your head to the enemy, you’ve already lost
Just walk around hallways keeping your ass against the walls
Hell, it's just like prison
Leg meta players: Funny man
The Ratnik is actually around 20-25 k because of the bleach trade. So its just better than the Penis helm for cheaper or close to it in price. Plus no ergo debuff, plus i can use tacsports with it.
Ratnik>Penis helm
Also covers the ears
Ratnik it's actually so good for budget loaduts
I don’t wear helmets solely for the fact that headshots when wearing a helmet scare the SHIT out of me.
Well, I suppose head injuries will go down...
@@leviticus1132 funny you mention that, i remember seeing a lindybeige video about how when they issued helmets in ww1, head injuries increased, as a result of people being hit in the head, injured but not killed as they would before. just the way you phrased it seemed similar to how he put it
@@wonderwaffle5858 that's the joke
Tc2000 series can also use the class 5 slap, and the bastion extra armor is only like 40-45k on flea last I checked this wipe
its about 80k this wipe
@@pandakilla4757 can conform bought one last night for like 70k
Face shields are mostly riccochet chance, The FAST MT with trooper mask gets that riccochet without glass fogging of screen so good on dark maps like interchange.
Really enjoying these style videos. Keep it up!
Ratnik is my favourite helmet. Cheap ears protection that still lets me use headsets.
My favourite tarkov youtuber
UNTAR is good for friendly recognition. If you have 4-6 medium geared people using it can make it way easier to identify friendlies. I’ve seen squads use them for that purpose.
always love to see you're videos man, keep up the good work :)
Could you please do an extremely serious backpack tier list? I like the G2 Gunslinger cause it has a perfect 2x3 slot for a car battery, allowing you to loot on your way to toss the battery into the ocean.
The electric eels need them to charge up
@@danbackslide2957XD
2x3 backpack? just use the t bag its 2.3k at ll1
the ratnik has been my go to helmet since i learned the ssh doesnt have ear protection. dont know why the isnt mentioned here
6b47 has high ricochet chance and nearly halved negative stats compared to the ssh. ssh is -2% movement, -8% turning, -13% ergo and 6b47 is -1% movement, -5% turning, and -2% ergo. 6b47 can also be obtained from scavs often and can be obtained via ox bleach trade which generally sits between 8-14k roubles making the helmet cost anywhere from 16-28k roubles. 6b47 is a better helmet than ssh and you cannot change my mind.
Im guessing someone has already said this but incase someone hasnt just wanted to let you know the aventail on the 2dtm is class 5, its actually a pretty nuts helmet but still not sure if its worth it with the amount you need to put into it to make it that good.
My general rule of thumb regarding the Ssh and the GB47: when I am running a shitty gun, I use the Ssh. When I use a decent gun, I use the GB47, since it has better ergo.
Why not always use the ratnik then?
nice vid! i often especially earlywipe take weight in consideration cause of carrylimits minmaxing .tc800 is ultralightweight. the tk fast mt replik is often cheaper for nightvisionmounting and offers reflectchance compared to the nonhelmetmounts for NVGs. cheers
Love your videos, keep up the good work ^^
The top tier ammo is way more rare this wipe with the flea market changes. Mid tier equipment is now way more effective, everyone is just rocking normal stuff now. Crazy gear and rounds are super rare. like they should be, even a month in.
During my first wipe I managed tp reach the mission where peacekeeper asks you to use untar gear to kill scavs and quickly dubbed them the cursed helmet and armor due to how trash and visible they were. Fast foward to this wipe and while I'm playing with a friend I find the cursed helmet in a buried stash, which I obviously threw away immediately. My friend went and equipped it against my complaints, stating that at the very least it was a worth a few rubles. Not even 10 minutes later he gets stuck in the collision of a random fence simply by walking near it.
"Told you it was cursed"
"Okay, I believe you now."
When I run peacekeeper armor, I try to help or be nice to as many players as I can unless they fire first
Actually underrated tarkov content creator
When you were bashing on the LZSh, since I use it mainly for stylepoints, I actually said out loud in it's defence "it looks pretty cool", and had to lol a bit at you saying the exact same words literatlly 0.1 seconds later xD
aaaand now I'm that crazy guy that talks to himself and tells people about it. nice!
I agree with most but the Caiman. With the add on armor it bounces things like crazy. I had it bounce 3 M80 rounds in an row.
Love the talking balaclava vids, keep em up!
With the new ballistics system level 3 helmets are actually even more worth running now, 6B47 and ULACH is king imo, high ric, ear protection and good ergo.
Idk how the Fast MT (Replica) is E tier. It literally doesn’t protect against anything, all the F tier ones give more protection.
This guy is a clown
Fast MT has high ricochet chance, same reason people use the shattered face mask. That and it doesn’t kill your hearing. I mainly just love the fact that an air soft helmet can bounce top notch AP ammo.
@@leviticus1132 the replica? The replica is useless what
@@CanadianEscobar the replica has no armor rating? 7mm pierces at distance tf you talking about
@@macncheeks5372 “Leviticus” is a clown
I think you forgot to add the HJELM helmet to the tier list it’s level 3 and it has a honeycomb design on it
I think he had this recorded for a while and just took a min to edit and get it out. He mentions being level 16 and being almost close to flea, which was the state last wipe where flea was lvl20 for the early wipe
22:55
I absolutely love the Bastion helmet. Don't know why, but just looks really cool and is a pretty good helmet overall.
Best helmet imo
The lzsh is Bae just like the fast mts you can have a full face shield ear protection and nvgs all at the same time, their the most slept on helmets
the tc 800 is the cheapest class 4 helmet that can mount a multi hit ballistic faceshield, so its actually the cheapest option for the protection it offers, if you don't have access to visors I think the tc 2001 is the cheapest class 4 option. Great video though, keep up the great work!
Tc 2001/2002 are so underrated
TC-800 used to be more in the A tier range but I checked the day of making and it was like 70k.
@@pedrocarneiro2556 they look disgusting af imo hence why i never use them
the ssh-68 stands out so much. I can spot it almost as well as the blueberry helmet.
I put tagilla in s tier , because I love hearing , and as a resort loot Chad tier 5 front protection plus hearing is the best
good video bro, i am waiting for more tier lists
Loving these tier lists
Me and my boys always run UN helmets when we committin crimes against humanity
You forgot to talk about some of the helmets like the ssh have no ear protection which is really important
Also the TC-800 is a solid helmet if you have the faceshield unlocked and don't want to spend 160k on a fast MT
Absolutely love this vid
People like the LZSh because once you get the samples buy option for the multi hit(~40k at pk4) it’s the cheapest way to get near full head with headphones protection for only ~70k
I love your tier list videos
What's nice about the Ronin is that it is the only helmet in the game that not only gives you eye protection but full face and ear protection while allowing night vision. It is unironically really good when doing night raids on factory, customs, and lighthouse and has saved me a few times on woods. Against players, yea your dead but that's gonna be most helmets and unlike all other face shield in the game it doesn't obstruct your vision at all. But if your going on raids against ai in the cover of night it's become one my my favorite helmets. Also the ricochet seems better.but I loot it every time I have never bought it. For some reason many times It has stopped 7.62 ps rounds. Maybe it's just really lucky rng considering a few days ago I was one tapped through my ulach (full health tier 4) with a single shot of ps gzh... I was pretty mad about that.
Chad man delivers another list. Very well
The sfera not only looks like a cabbage but is a cabbage it gives the same protection as a cabbage,same hearing capabilities as having cabbage in your ears and same look as a cabbage
Best helmet to look like a guy that is mind controlled by a cabbage
«Hjelm» is insane. Had saved my life so many times
7:05 love the spontanious moments like this
The Ratnik has ear protection and a mount and thats why people like it more
And ox bleach trade
2:03 man's voice just decided to ascend
tc 800 is the cheapest tier 4 that can equip the fast mt face shield, its my go to helmet since i completed samples
facts!!!!!!
I once picked up a ronin helm in a scav factory raid and didn’t know that it protects the entire head, and a traitor scav shot me in the back of the head with a shotty, I wipped around and dumped my 45-mag into him, putting it on saved my life and got me .03 fence revenue.
The TK Fast MT has great Ergo values, weighs nearly nothing, is cheap and has a high ricochet chance, which is all you need late wipe as the ammo used then will penetrate all amor classes anyway. No need to put any tier 5 plates on it. I literally run this together with Slicks late wipe and it works, as the only thing saving you from headshots will be a ricochet anyways.
keep doing that I will keep looting slicks off of your body
@@es0x :)
Lmao if ur running slicks running an exfil or a shattered mask are the only viable helmets in terms of having a brain. Exfil has next to 0 penalties and has a face shield for scav moments. Shattered mask for ricochet chance
@@blessed8543 Really funny how tilted you are. This was not an argument against an Exfil which is indeed the best helmet in the game and easily S-Tier, especially with the scav buffs in 12.12, but an argument for the TK Fast MT which falsely got put into E Tier. Also Condor glasses made the shattered mask pretty obsolete.
@@blessed8543 lmao the good ol class 4 helmet class 3 faceshield that costs 400k when I can get that for 40
With the addition of the new USEC shirts this wipe, I've committed to using the UN armor set, blue shirt and jeans, IDEA rig, and a pilgrim
the tc2001 helm can also get a slapp plate on it just like the fast mt
The ssh saved me 4 times this wipe
3 times from sniper scavs and somehow I survived with a blacked head
1 team kill from a 545 bp
9:02 first time using the glasses i got saved by two direct snb bullets and they were back to back so I kinda love them for that lol
Leviticus the only thing you forgot to count as a bank for buck lover is the repairability. The moment you get out of the raid after being shot in the head and being saved by your helmet or is getting back from insurance (your killer didn't took it or you have a buddy who ditched your stuff) you will see a damaged helmet what you want to repair and to have it on high durability (going under 90% is dangerous). This is where SSH, Ulach, Altyn and Rys-T is shining super great, you can pretty much repair them 3-5 times before you give them to the vendor because it's repairability wich helps you to only lose 0.5-3% durability after repairing it (usually at Prapor, come on let's just be honest) and you can put it back on your head and practically it's just as a new one, no need to buy a new helmet, meanwhile most other helmets are not even worth to repair them or maybe you can do it once.
What are your thoughts on machineguns? So for there is only the RPK, not even the 6P41. They may be impractical af especially when solo, but just imagine going through a 100 rounder...
I think there should be a buff for the Jam likelihood on Machine Guns since their whole purpose is to dump rounds. That or add chain guns that don’t jam as that is their purpose in real life.
this has to be the most accurate list ive seen
TC-2002 was my go to, cause they were way cheaper than any other good T4 option. It saved me many, many times that C3 wouldn't have
I am the Lzsh enjoyer, I run it for swag, it has saved me.. maybe 3-4 times from players.. but I run it with the t2 visor so I know when I get shot in the eyes
Vulkan-5 is a meme helmet in Russian law enforcements AFAIK. Razvedos (known Russian ex-officer of SF unit) once was telling a joke, one part of which was a guy openning door and seeing officers wearing those things in front of him.
on the kolpak, it should go to D tier because it costs less than a 1 kilo bag of dirt from my backyard and you can put transparent tissue paper for 3 dirt bags
"This is the ULACH" *points at the Altyn* lol
I think this wipe made tier 3 and 4 armors way more viable for later in the wipe.
You can't buy pretty much any ammo that penetrates class 4 armor, without unlocking pretty time consuming quests or tier 4 traders. Like all of the NATO M85XA1 ammo and M995 are off the flea. You can't just buy any AK bullet that penetrates more than class 3, unless you unlock them from prapor or find like 20 in a raid.
Getting shot by expensive lategame ammo is much more rare than in previous wipes. Getting shot by regular PS 7.62 is much more common. The 7.62x51 caliber guns are kinda scary, M80 is accessible relatively early and rips through class 4 armor, but the better M62 and M61 are both off the flea.
In short, it's pretty common to get shot with M855, PS, and even 9x19 Pst or .45 match FMJ. Shotguns too are very popular. None of these bullets can fuck up a class 4 face shield in one round. Even a class 3 has saved me 50% of the time in factory, even though it has been almost 2 months since the wipe.
Flechette is the way to go. Shreds lvl 5 + armor and its cheap
LZSh helmet is my favorite because it's cheap, lightweight, flasglight mounts because i play exclusively night raids, and if I want I can add applique level 5 slapp armor to it.
I love the tank helmet with a gas mask so much
The ultimate rat look.
The merits of LShZ that you couldn't see are that you can craft it and in addition to night vision, it takes all of the ops core attachment, (except the SLAAP plate)
Caiman with the extra tier 4 plate has saved me from m995 multiple times on labs
Djeta is most DEFINITELY worth picking up and keeping. It is basically a free berkut from ragman.
dude ive kicked some major ass with the joke fast mt with the slap as you said as long as your head first it, as you could say, SLAPS lol
You can also use the air soft helmet to craft a real fast MT
The ratnik is NOT just a “night time ssh helmet” it’s a way waaaaaay better option than the ssh. Better stats, cheaper, more equipment options.
The Vulcan 5 has been good to me the last couple of wipes. Sadly she's been banned and is now full price (400 ish thousand instead of 150 thousand, 175-220 wth faceshield) The Class VI protection and visibility is superb, but as you stated the faceshield isn't. Also it TANKS your movement, and makes you deaf. Still wouldn't trade it for anything else though. The amount of times I would just turn around while reloading to save my ass is unreal.
That’s a fair point. The price is my real turn off as well as the fact that people are getting better and better at switching from aiming to head or legs based on what they see your wearing.
The point of the untar gear quest is the challenge to engage and survive wearing the helmet and body armor. If you play tactical and smart it can be done, unless you are complete garbage at utilizing refined skills of CQB.
I had no issue with that quest whatsoever.
The reason for the LZSh love is that you can put a heavy trooper mask on it to look drip af
I like how the shirts are piling up as the video goes on
1:20 you have my subscription sir
*Spawn on Factory*
Oh boi I cant wait to slap some Timmys

Brilliant Video as ever Levi, and no worries as long as Blackout and I are around you wont get chased down by a mob with torches ;)
As the video progresses, he slowly gets drippier with more plaid shirts.
late wipe everyone starts selling the zsh and its faceshield for dirt cheap, the most cost effective combo for under 30k for factory.
best arguments i'he heard so far. objective list, 10/10 for pumpkin S tier
love the shirts
SFERA actually has saved me multiple times, I prefer this helmet if you don't care about faceshield nor hearing / headphones.
LZSh helmet can be crafted out of the airsoft helmet + Aramid. It's not a great helmet, but decently accessible, I assume anyone using it is completely broke.
Simply commenting because I got so much enjoyment out of this video for some reason
The reason why the lzsh is a decent helmet is because of the ops fast core for ragman 2 can protect you from scavs head eyesing you from 50 meters away with buckshot
The maska has saved me from head eyers so many times in dorms lol
Tagilla mask is better than altyn because it doesn't get glass shatter marks, so you can actually see after being shot. You rarely die to a bullet in the back of the head and can hear better.
