2:45 DO IT Loving this series so far, would love to see you take it all the way to Kappa. For me I'm happy for a little bending of the rules for some of the near impossible tasks as you made the ruleset with the idea that you would only go for max traders.

[@TheKoolBean]

Literally came to say the same, this hardcore series has me completely hooked and even with some slight bending of the rules to make it possible I think it's an awesome idea!

[@absurdides]

Would LOVE to see a Kappa run. Can't get enough of HARDCORE!

[@Fresh79999]

Do it for the fans!

[@oliboy6204]

He could change some of the rules after getting Max traders

[@mist4620]

That fucking Tagilla impact nade though. I'm fucking dying. ahahahaha

[@dmtaboo_truth7052]

Ironically it's one of the most reliable way of killing him

[@danmcmurphy2823]

that whole raid was so clean

[@adrianmartin7344]

Man I am a lurker, never even played Tarkov in my life but this is the fiest Hardcore series I am following as it is happening. GO FOR IIIIIIT!!!!

[@Pestily]

Thanks man! Glad you are enjoying it!

[@jonborno8550]

Please go for Kappa!!!

[@GamingStar22]

I am very new to Tarkov (first wipe), have no idea what "Kappa" is yet, but if it means this series will go on for longer I am all for it :D

[@Deadlock-g4t]

​@@GamingStar22 basically the top tier of secure container

[@jonborno8550]

@@GamingStar22 Kappa is the last secure container and more or less endgame. after that there is only a little more you can achieve in a wipe.

[@Malphas_]

it will be fun going to kappa, but i don't want 10 episodes of finding a rare item just for 1 task

[@snipedsilence]

Motion seconded

[@Frostafarian]

This is the first hardcore series I've made it 26 episodes deep, something special about this one. KAPPA HERE WE COME

[@Viccerz]

Pestily: the STM is trash Also Pestily: *murders Tagilla and like 6 PMC's with it*

[@Malphas_]

being in hardcore, he cant be picky, this is why early hardcore is fun we get to see him use guns he don't normally use

[@dmtaboo_truth7052]

Yeah but Pest could murder 6 PMC's with a fookin pencil.

[@dmtaboo_truth7052]

Pest just casually banging out a 40 PMC headshot weekly, on Hardcore, without really even forcing it. My post-raid screens are more like: Thorax, Thorax, Thorax, Thorax 😅

[@krucialFPS]

Huge tip for the Tagilla armor. Ive been farming Tagilla, taking the level 6 plates out and putting them in the Thor armor, or anything else that covers more of your body. Thor is good because the extra armor it gives you is level 3, while most armors only have level 2 for the extra coverage.

[@atoxicsunbro4423]

Only negative about Thor is no throat/neck protection. I would rather have lvl 2 aramid with that rather than lvl 3 aramid just in the front back and sides. Eventually you can access the Osprey Protection Kit which comes with lvl 5 plates. And also has lvl 3 aramid protection for front back sides neck throat and arms. It’s what I’ve been running and it’s top tier.

[@michealnelsonauthor]

Is there one that adds gut protection? Because i hate that effect of getting gut shot. Ran mostly Blue armors this wipe for that. So far.@@atoxicsunbro4423

[@ih8s8n]

Pestily woke up and chose violence haha. When you’re on you’re on! It is always a pleasure to see how brilliant you are at this game. Going up against better gear and coming out on top by your tactical choices in the moment, not to mention your crack aim too. It’s impressive how many headshots you get. Those factory raids at the beginning of the episode were so enjoyable to watch. You just seemed to come alive and your poor sleep was quickly forgotten. Love from Canada Pest.

[@jacobeccles5127]

That is a cool idea to do a hardcore event. They could run it like runescape runs their different leagues. Certain period of time, even give like clothing rewards for completing certain things maybe. Also was that back to back raids with Tagilla?

[@oFalKs]

Sometimes I wish you'd edit in twitch chat so we could see the reactions in chat, such as nade-impacting Tagilla and randomly killing a dude in Interchange with a nade.

[@NukeOverlord]

Only through the first 33 minutes and the back to back wins are INSANE. Two Tagilla kills. Blind nade kill. Taking out a ULACH SCAR PMC with a fucking STIMPY. Crazy, absolutely crazy.

[@SpeedyMckeezy]

That last raid was absolutely crazy

[@techpriestsgaming6525]

Yesterday I killed my first ever boss - Tagilla. As a newbie with a Kedr. Got achievment for it. After that I got headshotted into my eye through what I only can say appears as a wall by a player scav at 3 seconds from extracting.. Great experince Tarkov has

[@danmcmurphy2823]

26:55 This interaction is gold 😂

[@Tenezill]

the hardcore series is so good thx for entertaining us while we loading in again after getting killed 1:03 into the raid :D

[@Trains967]

Got the lightkeeper achievement at lvl 17. You can kill Zryachiy and pass the mines, very few people do it but you can. If you get close enough of the lighthouse it gives you the achievement.

[@Lunatic768]

Will definitely keep watching you go for Kappa hardcore!

[@nickw2349]

Also big props for not taking a crap bolty with decent ammo and farming rouges so you always have a mid/good loadout

[@Ezekialify]

I would love to see you try and get all the tarkov shooters done on hardcore... lol

[@Fruuitloops6]

I love when pest comms with other players. its so great and wholesome xD

[@nickw2349]

Are key spawns lower this wipe then others? Feels like keys spawning on scav runs are way higher and finding them in filing cabinets etc is way lower.

[@Neo1232123]

You can get firefly day 1 by killing zarach and crossing the bridge, many vids on YT on how to cross, you get the Achievement by being at a certain spot on the island

[@acharori7332]

That 2nd Tagilla hit kinda made me lose it lmao

[@okWishFull]

9:30 people like nofear who know how to kill zryachiy and his cultists and also detonate claymores on bridge can get the achievement without the need to talk to lightkeeper himself.

[@mpdonn317130]

Great KZbin episode! 3 bosses and lots accomplished! Loved it.

[@AeRoSiKTh]

I think more people have Firefly than you think. I've seen 2 people crossing the bridge alone, and I don't play lighthouse much

[@Recker1125]

10:00 Does sniping zyrachiy and passing the bridge give this achievement?

[@michealnelsonauthor]

yes

[@XxTheSm1ttYxX]

@Pestily a duo or colab with Tom Candy would be absolutely stellar!

[@EEMBMinecraft2442]

I feel like to stop the RMT and cheating, battle state could provide their own real money market place. But if you use it you'll be put into separate servers. This way, cheating is discouraged, they can earn an extra income, normal players are less likely to meet cheaters or go the RMT route. Seems like a win win to me. Let me know your thoughts on this

[@HellDuke-]

16:50 I had tested it earlier in the wipe, MP-18 does not count for setup

[@ryanloney3448]

Haha what a raid to finish on, clutch stuff, also glukhar has 5 guards you wipes his ass clean

[@topraktatlbak9008]

you can get the achievement @10:10 by killing zryachy ( idk how to write his name) and going to the keeper

[@lame9666]

I thought I was having dejavu and then realized I watched this when he was streaming it lmao

[@balfizan]

Yeah I think he's said that he wants to take a break at max traders film some guides and let the yt series catch up then evaluate if he wants to try for kappa

[@jaxzian]

there is a way to cheese the mines on the bridge to lighthouse and survive the crossing to get the achievement however it is quite hard to do. if they have the lighthouse and Zarachi kill achievement, they prob cheesed it, but if they don't have the Zerachi kill, it is impossible to cheese, so prob a cheater in that case.

[@VIBE42]

That was a massive episode. Love this series.

[@Artemis19925]

Well this arrived just on time. So often I hear people talking in chat about how your hard-core series distracts them from real life problems for a while when they watch. Now it's my turn. Best friend just got taken into hospital with a perforated bowel. He's off oxygen and drinking water, so hopefully out of the woods. But hey. A good distraction is what I needed right now till we hear more.

[@multigwilty5154]

My toxic trait is watching Pest videos and thinking "I'm going to hop on EFT and have a successful day" >Load into Customs and get killed by the fist PMC I meet. Oh yeah, I fucking suck at this game

[@ugandanknuckles3900]

21:30 berry nice.

[@gage2535]

i love when i identify the ammo from when he looks at the mag it makes me feel like im getting better

[@san4812]

go for the kappa really enjoying the videos.... i usually get an hour instead of playing this series is more fun to watch ... keep it up

[@willbert7715]

pretty sure that nade at 20:00 min killed tagilla not with the explosion but hit him at the head and knocked him down

[@douglaslopes5913]

If there has ever been a hardcore series to go for kappa, it would be this one

[@doctordrabs]

Thank you 😊

[@SuperWalle97]

wait impact oneshots him? i have like 20 impact im about to perma factory and farm him

[@madybo1176]

The STM has a special place in my heart

[@edziitis8]

Pestily. I have that achievment. I got it at level 25, i just killed zryachy and guards and then crossed bridge. I learned to cross bridge without taking damage from mines.

[@lev1687]

ima get lightkeeper achievment today u just have to go to the tower , and i already got the reciever, very nice vid tho

[@goatlord7310]

Shame that dude didn't understand the reference. "I'm not your buddy, pal". "I'm not your pal, friend." "I'm not your friend, amigo." 😂😂

[@tablouroz9266]

I think there is a good amount of people having the lighthouse achievement before 35 because of the tigz tutorial how to kill zyrachi and get past the mines, did it too is not that dificult.

[@squirlie357]

Hardcore kappa would be awesome you would need to start saving all kinds of barter items though

[@JeffreyMcLain]

Alright Narpha and chat....F today. I'm over it. But this shit is gonna be a small dose of greatness, I can just feel it. Cheers everyone, hope you're good.

[@CasD1806]

Honestly I would love the hardcore event. I'm a way below average player but the hardcore event sounds amazing! Sign me the fuck up!

[@peterbal414]

51:54 microwaves done

[@terrys.3278]

That Gluhar raid was hard-core af. Shame a player scav got the loot without any idea of the effort that went into it, but also typical Tarkov.

[@redcarnage420]

Spoilers! I've been watching in anticipation of finishing that weekly. Oh well, still good content

[@jacobbos2208]

broooooo i'm only a couple miniutes in and you're THIS CLOSE to getting kappa??? LOVE IT you do you i've never gotten it but man this wipe has been a good one cheers! go for it! (if you're down :) )

[@PaladinFury]

KAPPA DO IT I think it's acceptable to buy quest requirements that CAN NOT IN ANY WAY be bartered for or crafted. Or you could tough it out and spend the rest of the wipe doing it the hard way.. we'll watch.

[@PaladinFury]

And yes, an "ETS" style secondary server for Hardcore would be fun as an event, especially late wipe!

[@hevytimes]

Hardcore going to Kapa? Pest, don't tease that! It'd be awesome, but the grind is insane.

[@MindBlowerWTF]

1:10:30 they be yappin

[@Sukalbi]

Please go for kappa, I broke my hand and watching this series is getting me through not being able to play

[@Morgan_The_Dude]

23:58 isnt the audio bug still a think pest?

[@ManBearNoPig]

HC Kappa would be so hype!

[@SneakyBeaky430]

this hardcore is going so well, you can definitely do kappa this wipe

[@TwilightSentinel]

I wouldn't mind if they fleshed out the seasons a little bit more, then make each season last roughly a week long.

[@tianrunzhang6557]

I really want an ending of this game. Like if you get to kappa you can actually escape from tarkov

[@nickw2349]

Would be good, tho kappa is achievable now sub lvl 50 and there’s people almost at 60+ 4 weeks into the wipe

[@michealnelsonauthor]

Its coming. Terminal is supposed to be the exit map. And a 150-200 hour questline to get to that exit. So theyre likely building the map and the quests as we speak...

[@gitim4God]

"P" do you have a photographic memory?

[@turner7777]

Definitely try the kappa, just think what an achievement will be in the current state of the game

[@alucarder]

Great video

[@maazsarkar8673]

todays episode we are farming tagillaa LOLOLOL

[@n0x1021]

Love you Pestily.

[@jackR1996]

how close are you pestily ?

[@malik740]

Would you be the first in the hardcore community to go for Kappa? If so its another very good reason to do it :)

[@AUD10F1L3]

hes done it before many seasons ago

[@sabbath8989]

10:10 lol nevermind the achievement bc 115 KD sure is normal for 100 hour account

[@balfizan]

More kills than hours in Tarkov ... Riiiiiiight

[@DaveBartel]

666 damage? Hail Stan!

[@gordonramsayfanatic]

as a spt player i cant wait for the update to finally get added, but holy shit i am not looking forwards to having to learn this new armor system at all lol

[@chickenbeforeegg]

HUGE raids this episode!

[@Tappy-cv7fw]

Holy Bosses

[@Gonzo_536]

KAPPA!!!

[@tomamonini9012]

Your hardcore account is better than my main

[@MoxieGamess]

Mp-18 does not count for setup, only the MP-155,153,133,135 do

[@branjeff1]

Bummer, would be a stylish way to get that one done lol

[@NIGHTSTALKER0069]

I haven’t seen some boss yet. He has managed to find and kill same boss three times lol.

[@douglaslopes5913]

Also, for the tasks that require specific items that don't have a barter trait, you could "add a barter trade" specified by you that would allow you to buy the item off flea market if you delete the barter item in question This is just so the grind is a bit more manageable

[@ChabuTwo]

meanwhile I get literally 1 tapped by a scav, from 30+m, without first even getting a voiceline callout.

[@ComradeDerds]

GO for KAPPA!!!

[@boussi4life]

How does he carry so much gear and be able to sprint and not be overweight?

[@ChrisFreeman-e3i]

❤

[@dizzypog]

KAPPAAAAAAA

[@z0603]

i have the firefly achievement from killing zryachiy

[@danneliu]

Omg 2 headshots, a couple of scavs plus Tagilla in less than 2 mags pistolammo!? I'm uninstalling...

[@jacobstritzinger3201]

Go for kappa!

[@nickw2349]

Stash is way too full. Waiting for the inevitable nothing but pain episodes on in the next 20 levels to max traders

Go 4 Kappa

[@synchax3848]

the different between his and eu servers are his servers are always fkn dead. thats why he can do that series other wise it would be more then like 60 episodes. would be more like 150-200 then

[@SpaceCadetLaC]

"EU servers are way harder" - Every single EU player

[@synchax3848]

@@SpaceCadetLaC i play on US servers but ok bro try to seek some attention :) it is what it is. his aussi servers are dead af and u cant proof me wrong

[@maizena7646]

Ive watched every single episode and am loving it! However, some feedback to the editor. Please don't put spoilers in the title. It takes away a lot of the suspense of hardcore. For example, I was very invested in seeing how this weekly would go and looked forward to seeing it play out. Sucks that it gets spoiled in the title :(. It's happened several times before but this was the worst one.

[@FoolioOG]

Anyone else struggling this wipe people just don’t move it’s never been this bad for me can’t tell you how many times I’ve died to people sitting in bushes or in the dumbest corner imaginable
