Escape from Tarkov is a massive multiplayer online combat simulator with RPG elements developed by Russian Saint-Petersburg-based game developer, Battlestate Games. Set in the fictional Norvinsk region located on the frontier between Russia and Europe, the metropolis of Tarkov was plunged into anarchy thanks to the Contract Wars. What was once a bustling city, is now roamed by rivalling scavenger gangs and former private military forces and black ops units. Between them all, there's you, your stash, and the escape back to the free world from the depths of Tarkov. - Hry
One key factor I forgot to mention with these tests where the plate began to fail at around 50% was we were using ammunition right below the stopping power of the plate! If you have ammunition much lower in penetration then the plate will continue to stop rounds.
You should make a ak545 short build video that will bet views its a cheap gun that has zero recoil stock and with pp/ps ammo its very effective.
Would you be willing to do a video with a chart like s tier to f tier with the armours so we have a quick reference when playing.
An in-depth analysis of all the plates would be really helpful. I'm pretty high level and there is a lack of information regarding this type of stuff. I notice a lot of the plates are quest locked, if you know what quests unlock which plates as well that would be huge as it's not even fully on the wiki and I don't have time to binge watch streamers with max traders. Best armor video I've seen yet though, didn't realize the side plates had the same hitboxes. Also the Zuk bug got patched yesterday, so you might want to make an edit in the corner of the video.
never bother commenting on vids but real genuine seeming guy and always manage to get a laugh out of me. keep it up
Hell yeah happy to hear brotha!
Far more detailed and informational than any other new armour system video out there, thanks for putting in the effort for finding all this out
Thank you man, I was sad to release this late but wanted to be confident on my findings.
The amount of detail in this video is out of this world. Thanks man.
I tried man! Glad you got some value!
Great video, I would love to see another one explaining more in depth on what armors are good throughout progression , and taking into account how hard they are to obtain. Thanks for the good vid as always Pink
I can do that
Amazingly informative video. I would love an armor progression guide for the best things to use at each level and what's worth it on the flea
Coming soon!
I have found 2 very good plates. They are both made out of UHMWP.
One is lvl 3, the other is level 5. They have fanatic durability and protection for their weight.
The level 3 one weighs less than half a kilo and I like to use it in the back armor of my rigs to keep me light.
The level 5 one is also great, at about 1 kilo, and it still has great durability.
The level 3 one can be purchased on the flea for around 15-20k rubles most of the time.
Hi everyone ! After this mess with unheard edition, more and more people switch to spt-aki (PVE Tarkov,) so... I wanted to tell about 'Realism Mod'. So basically, one of the features that this mod changes is ballistics. So, imagine 9mm AP shot into 4 level armor. Basically, with the mod, even if it didn't penetrate the armor, it still will do quite some damage to the player, AND it will surely do greater damage to the armor itself. With the mod almost all ammo got boost, and actually feel like ammo.
Good Job with the video, you explained every concept worth mentioning thoroughly and this info could definitely save the life of your PMC if applied correctly.
Keep up the good work my boy 💯💯
Ty for the content and info
Other tests that have been shared around the community has shown armor plate durability doesn’t affect penetration chance at the moment. A 1/40 durability plate and 40/40 durability plate keeps the same pen chance and acts as the full armor class.
Not sure if this is intended, but it makes changeable plate armors somewhat better than inbuilt armor. e.g. the Rat Rig with inbuilt lvl 4 armor steel still has increasing pen chance with damage, whereas 6B13 steel plates don’t.
This is the case only with low penetration ammo, when using ammo right below the plates original stopping power rounds start wheezling through earlier
any testing for this? Idk why you put so much effort in making a video but then show no evidence for any of the claims. @@TickleMePinkGaming
@@tosfriendly test it yourself instead of watching a high quality test video and complaining.
Weird - every other tester says plates specifically do not decrease in protection chance until they're totally zeroed.
I was using ammunition right below the penetratiom requirement for each plate so that is probably the differance
Please work on the plate tier list I need to know if I’m wasting money on with level 3 plates
yes sir (youre not)
So if I have an armor that has insertable side plates does that mean it protects the whole side or just the side plate shape
Question, so if the hitboxes are, with few exceptions, the same no matter what they look like as long as they mention the specific part, would that mean the plated rigs are not as useless as they seem? was thinking trying CPC (the one with a couple 3 slot mag boxes on adition to 4 slot and 2 slots) because based on that, despite only having aramid 2, might be worth the tradeoff for mobility and "stealth" (cause I would go green weight) since I can place side plates and has side aramid, sure has no neck, shoulder or groin protection but if I get hit less it might be worth it over the assault osprey or the korund
Hey pink! Combined mats, aramid, and polymer plates have been and are still in the game, how do they stack up against the hard plates? By destructibility, they should be better generally, but is there some blunt difference I'm not aware of? Should I ever consider running soft plates? Thanks
Id stay away from soft plates on the front, in the back sure because theyre a bit lighter.
Great video, please do the armor req video :)
Do you have any armour recomendations?
coming soon!
Dont kill yourself, love your vids
Do it
hmmm, guess ill keep shitposting
What is your post fx?
not sure if intended, but the !Materials doesn't work in twitch currently. gives a content is no longer available error
Can you do a setup guide for settings and how to enable the best frames
can do
@@TickleMePinkGaming Thanks Dad!
i need to mark something - sadly not every armor is on flea now and we are gated behing zabralo..
Thanks tickle

ayyy ty Zoe
nice info
Where'd you get that Santa bag 🤔... Someone's been naughty.
Player
whats a good to run at lev 3 traders?
I did a full video on that, check it on the channel!
i never run a backplate
if they are behind me i just know my skills arent good enough to turn around and murder them before they get me
so like writtenon a claymore i follow the principle of "front twoards enemy "
This is helpful thank you! You replied to me a couple days ago and im a new tarkov player. The one thing I dont understand thats driving me mad.. I cab have a level 4 helmet or face shield, than like a 9mm pistol or a .300 vmax would hit me twice. It wouldnt pen and I would die from blunt damage. Like wtf! Whats the damn point of a helmet if you just die instantly from blunt damage from small rounds..
One thing you didnt cover is some of the armours are bugged so the armours that have their own shapes like the steel one that has groin protection, the last round that the plate takes ie it doesnt have the hp to stop the round will go right though the soft armour insta killing as if theres no soft armour bunch of people found it in testing so i wouldnt use any of the armour that have thier own special shaped plates becuase yoh will die as soon as the plate is to low as theres no soft armour.
Key word is bugged, it will be addressed and then irrelevant where this video will stay relevant.
@@TickleMePinkGaming yeh but dont you think a 5s note with text would be important
This is a good point, but plates are usually pretty durable. I have not yet experienced a plate getting zero'd on durability yet: typically you die to another hit location before then.
Not worth wearing any at the moment?
Dope vid
Yeah w tier list
you got it
Hey dude the zhuk armor has already been fixed
Yeah right after I posted this
keep yourself safe :)
you got it
Zhuk has been hotfixed, yaya?
yes sir!
Liked and subbed

A lot of water
Nobody have made a video with the plate that have the best hitbox protection. And now with ur video we have one more half decent avaliation of armor. Everyone rushing for views and incapable of doing the best information we could have.
I sunk about 60 hours into this video, your upset that I didn't measure plates?
U spent half the video explaining something everybody knows and the other half with new stuff that others have already done. The only thing me and all other veterans are looking for now is the plate hitbox analisys and if there is difference interacting with different armors. Thats it. But good job anyway, ur effort is appreciated anyway
@@victormilfont9327make the video urself, i will watch it.
People just wanna know whats best its so dumb they add so many armors etc but people just use yhe same handful of armors its an L and idk why they didnt keep it how it was
