YT Desmond is surprisingly more bearable than Twitch Desmond. I find it hard to watch him on stream because every time I tune in he is complaining about cheaters. He puts down the hammer though so I respect that.
Slight PK related tip, prepop Goldenstars rather than Vaseline because Goldenstar levels your metabolism while Vaseline doesn’t. Also Goldenstars have 10 uses but you should only use 9 out of the 10 that way with your 1/10 Goldenstars you can use those to craft propitals in your hideout for the entirety of the wipe! Enjoy the wipe gamers
To be honest i think i would never expect guide from Desmond except maybe how to control recoil or how to ferrari pick somethink like that but ma man 1 hours guide for literally everythink is crazy i watched whole thing and it change my approach for certain things that i was negative about im glad that im watching you for long time and can see this guide as one of your subscribers thanks for beeing here with us and thanks for really good quality content and insane PVP hope you will hit one day 100k wish you luck. Love ya
I watched this entire video. So many good things to think about and apply and work on. Sincerely thanks. Your voice and tone even in a mega gunfight never changes, you are unshakable.
Best video out there for new comers and already seasoned players. Great video overall, no useless fat just straight to the point and debunking myths along the way like "don't play Q/E" tips.
Desmond is a demon at tarkov and a professor at teaching it to others. The best of both worlds. You can’t not like this guy. Great video man as always🤝🏽🫡
He always posts those pvp clips so i didnt know how great of a teacher he is. Fucking insane knowledge right here. Hes the type of teacher everyone shuts up and fucking listens to lol.
So many amazing bits of information here from one of the best Tarkov players I have ever watched! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, so many things that may seem small to you were huge for me. Much appreciated!
Recent change of rogue ai makes USEC 10x easier on lighthouse. If you don't know rogues don't agro usec unless you get too close and even then just the AI you got too close to will agro not the whole camp. You can literally walk in the front between the 2 gunners and do your quest. You can run up on the roofs and they won't get off the gun.
NGL your teaching videos are really nice and quality i notice you post a lot of highlights but when you do post those guide like videos they are very in depth and actually teach new things unlike the people who just spam the same tips over and over
@@DesmondPilak just review your own clips and talk your way through your thought process and say what the other guys did wrong. thats one of the best ways ive gotten better and i taught my friend that way.
great vid desmond, i think you made a good point about using continuous for aiming instead of press. ive been using press since i bought the game, and i have "hold breath" set to "release" so i can aim and hold breath with one input. i thought this was genius at first but it only works if i stop moving before i aim lol. think i might switch to continuous and at least give it a try
I learned a ton from this video, sadly I’ve have spent more then twice the time waiting in queues then playing game, sometimes waiting over 10 minutes for a game..
@@Cowena For sure more confident in my abilities to win pvp. Major changes to the core mechanics of the game make a huge difference. I started patch 11.7 and I thought I was good at the game pvp wise (b4 inertia), when inertia was introduced I had to basically re-learn the games movement lmao. Also try to get rid of gear fear as quick as you can, since having better guns, ammo and armor *always* makes your odds of survival higher.
If you play on toggle aim, you can get your hold breath set to right mouse release so if you aren't in motion it holds your breath so you don't have to hit Alt key(or whatever bind you have) to hold breath.
Yeah but, then you have no control. I hate it. I run my lean on forward/back on mouse, so I have my hold breath on Q. Works everytime and I don't have it wasting my breath time everytime I want to pull up my gun.
I will say, there are like 2 spawns on lighthouse where you being a BEAR cuts off your ability to push inward and you're basically forced into early PVP with another spawn. Not a big deal for kitted raids but if I'm tryna farm rogues or do some budget tasking it was annoying. I picked usec for the first time this wipe and it has made lighthouse so much less painful
@8:20 Just try to pickup food. "Yep thats me on shorline hitting East and West wing and not finding a singular food item. Ironically thats and Hospital.
right hand peek is still better switching to left shoulder is kind of weird, its easier to aim if you just keep it on the right. i still use left shoulder situationally but dont spam it like i used to
EDUCATIONAL DESMOND CONTENT HOLY BLESSED
Hail Satan
Get a life whoreboy

11:25 man they really need to make us be able to use firing range while matchmaking, id be at the range all the time
agree
thumbs up for these nades 39:00
ive dropped a few at my feet and was always deathly afraid of throwing nades wrong, really appreciate this tip
I love how everybody wants Desmond too get the reach and respect he deserves, man deserves a bigger audience

I’ve seen some beasts try to do PvP tutorials and this one is by far the best. A lot of nuanced strats. Thanks man.
Thank you so much for taking all the time time to make this and sharing your thousands of hours of game knowledge Des!
Desmond would you ever review your viewers gameplay and give pointers on how to improve, and pointing out their mistakes in a clip/video?
potentially later in wipe, wont have time to rn
@DesmondPilak thanks Desmond. Can't wait to see it. Have a great day bro!

Seriously, its crazy how well he explains what hes doing / thinking when making plays, its unmatched really

This was a great refresher for me coming back after months off from the game, also learned a ton!
Thanks for this video man. Always try to watch your streams to see if I can pick up on stuff from watching. This helps a lot!
I have 2k hours in this game but if Desmond whips out an educational content video I shut my ass and watch.
Is your ass not normally shut?
Ahh just like me, we are now out of the tutorial. I think?
Do you use a plug for that?
-asking for a friend
2k? So you're finally starting to know how to play.
@BrothersByBud yup, i have 5k and still learning 😅

Solid video. Solid tips. No bullshit. No overselling. Great work Desmond.
I'd love a day 1 wipe compilation or first raid video, I enjoy seeing how goated players experience the first day of wipe.

thats the hard part, there is only so many mechanics in the game, so its hard to find something worth talking about without just repeating stuff
@@DesmondPilak just review your own clips and talk your way through your thought process and say what the other guys did wrong. thats one of the best ways ive gotten better and i taught my friend that way.
Pilak handing down the Tarkovian scriptures from the mountaintop
Honestly great video, insane amount of info
continuous Q/E just blew my mind. Absolute game changer!
That's the default binding tho?
Great video from one of the best.
More Desmond guides, what a blessed day
The guide is amazing, the CC auto-translation to spanish is also very good, thanks for this! It will be my second wipe and info is super usefull
Bro, I now know how to fight in tight corners, I always wondered, thank you!
solo player here. This knowledge before the wipe will help me early. Thanks!!!!!!
Desmond with an educational banger! Love it
I recommend you to all my friends who are just getting into the game. Nice vid!
Great vid bro! Keep it up

Please make more guide videos, your viewpoints are very enlightening, thanks.
I learned a ton from this video, sadly I’ve have spent more then twice the time waiting in queues then playing game, sometimes waiting over 10 minutes for a game..
The best information there is! Period!
this is my first wipe, the video was goated ❤
desmond making guides i’m gonna explode 💥
Insane guide, thank you very much. Taught me a lot.
Damn son! That sweet movement. Thx for the tips.
The difference between video Desmond and stream Desmond is so funny😭😭😂
Professor Desmond clocking in
I have little over 3000 hours in the game and learned alott about angles and movement that I have not even thought about.
Hey man, I’ve got 1000 hours, just curious, after 3000 do you feel a lot more comfortable and confident with PvP? Can you see you’ve improved
@@Cowena For sure more confident in my abilities to win pvp. Major changes to the core mechanics of the game make a huge difference.

Pro tip: Liking and commenting on desmond videos increases your KD by 10
One of the badass Takov player
Hell yeah 😊
25:00 why didn’t u mention u can change shoulder now?
Not sure why he didn't either
Knew most of the tricks, but revising is never bad thing, cya all tomorrow. DAY W IS COMING
Great content man 👍
great video, thanks!
If you play on toggle aim, you can get your hold breath set to right mouse release so if you aren't in motion it holds your breath so you don't have to hit Alt key(or whatever bind you have) to hold breath.

@@JordanHarrisThat definitely sounds efficient.
@@matthewdaugherty8639 it's really nice being able to lean freely and have full use of wasd
Excellent video! Thank you very much👍
What is your sensitivity to be able to 180 while running up a stairwell?!! Goodness, I think I can turn 90 if I throw my mouse across the room
First time im watching a desmond video. When he went to the shooting range I got PTSD from his aim
THIS IS WHY I ONLY WATCH YOU!!! You give the content we need while learning your autopiloted movement demon mechanics 🤣🤣🙌🏽
Damn good ! Eager to see some "coaching" videos/replays
releasing guide day before new patch notes
thats some next level brain activity
level 77 is fucking crazy, good shit this wipe bro

love you DESMONDPILAK
Great stuff!
Desmond with the good content, after 2000 hours I'm still dogshit and needed every bit of this 😂
Good stuff man
what flashlight do you prefer using? i find every flashlight to be too bright but your one looks good
Is my phone tweaking, or is the audio scuffed? *I refreshed and it's fixed*
Based Desmond educational video, nice
This guy would liquify me 11 times out of 10
52:54 Came for some wipe tips as a 3k andy......stayed for the blatant call out, I lowkey suck when the beams in my face XD.
BEST VIDEO ON TARKOV 🤙
Awsome thumbnail man.
valuable content!
and the biggest tip of all of em is dont sweat your deaths and get tilted itll just make the beginning of wipe worse
18:05 I like having it on toggle bcause then I have hold breath on release.
Thank you.
grenade mechanic is huge
@8:20 Just try to pickup food. "Yep thats me on shorline hitting East and West wing and not finding a singular food item. Ironically thats and Hospital.
finally some good damn advice
Thanks! Anything specific you're looking forward to using in the new wipe?
tbh I never considered swapping inverting lean. Seems wonky to get used to but kind of worth. Might give it a shot.
thanks so much
I really think WASD movement keys would've helped truly visualize how to do it. Educational asf though, TY
Desmond farming 🎉
Dose switching shoulders help with the left hand peek
Blessmond!
Tip for this guide, you need to play this game 24/7
Was he saying holding breath on shift?
What about left-hands with shoulder swapping? Do the same general rules apply as with right-hands, or should it be left as a last resort?
Instructions unclear; grenade in butt
In all seriousness, masterclass video.
No gen and Desmond should collab
Where's the tips for handling/detecting cheaters?
i cant do the nade trick in a smooth step...i can run then take pin but i need release run then run and clic to throw nade (not a smooth motion)
so this is only for the first days of the wipe?
after that, doesn't apply?
Yo Desmond, would you use the swap shoulder mechanic for anything? or would you just always just try to get rights?
Step one dont get bored
best stims for strength and endurance to make pregnant scavs?
If you watch this entire video you instantly stop being a burger. Find out for your self
Pre popping meds is gonna come to an abrupt end soon, BSG is gonna throw that addiction mechanic in supposedly.
So is mp5 a great gun to use at the start of wipe?
That nade launch! wtf?
Grenade mechanic for me not working
Do u really need to always right hand peek now that u can change weapon to left shoulder?
right hand peek is still better switching to left shoulder is kind of weird, its easier to aim if you just keep it on the right. i still use left shoulder situationally but dont spam it like i used to
Im also insane withthe nades i knew all that
what res do you play
