The KING of Budget scopes..

Hey! If you're reading this thanks for watching 💜 come say hello to me live :) www.twitch.tv/2Lew/

[@Paincakes88]

I’m the first death, I’ve heard that you shouldn’t re-peak with scavs with the new update

[@Venermous_Hunter]

Hey Lew, I missed the loadout/setup mind telling me so I can try this out?

[@Cheiff117]

@2Lew whats the deal with cueing a "reloading voice line" ?

[@hellogoodbye388]

Dang it now it's going to be expensive...

[@BakeeZy]

Love your videos! You always deliver high quality stuff. Btw, I used to call this scope „Shroud scope“ since he was the only person using it back in the days, now it is „Lew scope“

This changes everything...

[@anotherkenlon]

The Monstrum 2x and the Primary Arms 2.5x are my go-to scopes for 5.56 and 5.45 rifles when I'm not setting up for a specific range. You can hit surprisingly far with them, and still use them close up without needing a canted red-dot. Also you get props for that AKSU build - I've always loved that gun, and with the recoil changes it's a CQB monster.

[@cyanide7270]

I cant stand the PA 2.5 Prism. The reticle looks like a fucking Koala and its so distracting XD

[@Sh0ckInAwe]

try the swampfox trihawk

2Lew, this video changed my life. My entire view of everything that exists in this world, in fact, even in the entire universe. I can never look at anything I know the same way again. This budget scopes represents emotions that most humans could never understand. But I can. Thanks to this scope I was awakened to many things previously considered unimaginable. Thank you for this exquisite scope, I will never forget this experience again.

another good one is the okp dovetail. something about how cheap it is to run while also having a good clear picture really attracts me to it. You don't need a bastion for it to function, it just works.

[@alientiger21]

The monstrum 2x is by far my favorite scope, super quick, super versatile, and an easy pick over anything besides a rare FIR TAC30

[@Demmon98]

I love both the fixes sights and the LPVOs they just each have a time and place, and people put too much weight on the LPVOs being OP.

[@hellboy-1337]

10:32 that scream has made my day dude xd

[@OREvilleRed]

Can't agree more! Adding magnification to my AKs- whether it be 2x, the 2.5x prism, or a 3x- has made me so much more comfortable fighting beyond 20 meters and has made the game that much more enjoyable for me

[@jacksongrant5158]

it's like 2am right now when i'm watching but scream at 10:29 had me bursting out laughing when shturman almost domed you

[@chadrattington]

The filter automation on the background music truly enhances the experience a lot well done

[@2Lew]

Thanks I love working with music

[@LaadanMF]

Been watching a ton of your videos lately, and I really appreciate the perspective and style with you which you play and commentate. I’m brand new to tarkov, so I’ve been trying to learn as much as I can. You’ve helped a lot! Also discovered you played RuneScape at one point, so that has me very hyped. Much love 2Lew!!

[@Forewarned76]

Early wipe urban load-out... Get a vicious from Prapor for plugs and an osprey from Mechanic for a drill, get a TOZ from Skier and load it with Poluvas Scope then both with the Monstrum

[@cyanide7270]

Always loved the Monstrum since i picked the game up in Jan 2020. Just enough zoom to make all but the longest shots easy to hit but also not so zoomed that it still works extremely well in CQB. Such a good sight.

[@2Lew]

Hell yeah dude

[@krazychicken]

i've been using this scope since the last video you made on it and it doesn't let me down, just a great scope all around!

[@2Lew]

Chicken!

[@juliank117]

ive been using that scope for a few wipes now i love it its a little annoying at longer ranges and suffers when theyre to close but its a good middle ground with good ammo too

[@rowdymoody8272]

That scream at 10:29 was golden.😂

[@cristianchavez1699]

well I agree 100%. I love this scope, I hope everyone else enjoys it. Its good because it gives you 2x allowing for much better precision from distance but not so zoomed in that you cant take close quarter battles with it. good all around scope for cheap

[@2Lew]

Truth

[@pedrojnunes0]

Great video, as always! Looking forward for a video with your take on the new recoil, some cool builds and Lew owning some PMCs

[@2Lew]

Sooon maybe

[@doomkid360]

I absolutely love this sight on dmrs and shotguns. I just finished the punisher quest for the aks and didnt think to use it tbh. I had to kill the sniper on top of the white tower twice with just a DP reflex. 😭😭

[@LikeACrouton]

Big fan of the monstrum 2x. I killed a 3 man early on on shoreline mostly with headtaps like that. Am also a big fan of the Eotech 1 to 3x atm. My point fire kinda sucks, so having a 1x you can actually full auto through is nice

[@AkiiaTM]

been really enjoying finding you and your vids, only got into tarkov this wipe but it's very fun, thank you for the great content

[@TheBranchez]

My man, that scream at 10:30 really got me 😆😅🤣

[@2Lew]

[@dingding7289]

my first intoduction was about 3 wipes ago as of this time, and the firtst gun my friend gave me was a vpo 101 with m80 and this scope and 3 wipes later this is still my go to its 1.5 or 2.5 or anything that isnt a proper scope for sniping never felt right for me, but this one is just right for almost all the guns i used and the fact it can turn red it the cherry on top.

[@FeralvVulpes]

the monstrums been my go to on customs forever, on the bigger maps i still like using at least an elcan

[@2Lew]

Hell yeah brother

[@oldenoughtowatchify]

I've been rolling with the Spectre DR lately, only 60k roubles on the flea and the 1x/4x variable as well as the little aim nub on top for cqc is fire

[@GR1NDVHOL1C]

Finally someone I agree with, the Dr or the 1x6 valday does the job very well

[@Its_Mee_Bee]

Another one! Seriously, the first 55 seconds was just OP, really nicely done bud! "The early worm gets the worm" "The man was made out of an iron buktin"

[@peksacola]

That Monstrum on an ADAR has been one of my favorite budget builds this wipe, especially with 856A1. Even got the Goons with it!

[@MastYT]

10:28 sounded like homer simpson LMAO

[@Guitro]

Tip about 1:14 - BS ammo = more penetration BUT less damage do flesh. He would die faster with HP.

[@tonytackett1905]

Dude the scream on that rock during the woods raid was so appropriate and hilarious.

[@2Lew]

[@felix6587]

just if anyone wonders why 5.45 BS takes 3 shots to the chest: Chest Health 85HP - 40 Dmg (1 Shot BS) = Remaining 45 Chest Health so you will need 2 additional shots with BS to get the Chest Health to 0HP

[@TheSpoonation]

That scream at 10:29 was amazingly funny

[@r.9158]

Swampfox Trihawk massively slept on. Insanely nice optic for 30K. Running this baddie with an MCX and a canted FF and just poopin on the world.

do you voice line every time you reload? wouldn't that work against you in a fight?

[@gregorycrawford6502]

What settings do you use in game? Seems like foliage and stuff is super minimal.

[@kil2675]

to your question about "the tankiest timmy you have ever seen" BS has 40 dmg thats why you often headshot scavs twice with it, it simply does better against armor than flesh

[@dawgy3937]

10:27 *Terrified scream* "There's somebody shooting at me"

Did you bind the audio callout "reloading" on your reload key? I don't think I want my enemy to know every time I pull the mag out of my gun.

You were right about the Monstrum scope, it rocks. Just demolished a Shoreline raid with it!

[@mikereilly6894]

I have a 1.5x and a 3x in real life on my AR15 wylde and 300 blackout. Love them.

[@mlgpro41]

I've been preaching this scope for ages. Glad to see you made a video on this hidden gem

[@Blue-fo1tx]

1:14 - Explanation: Over-pen (as opposed to under pen or not penning at all). BS ammo and any ammo made to pierce armor will overpenetrate a player without any armor at all, this means no bleeds (most of the time), less damage done (except to the head), and also can lead to glitches where the round doesnt spread out into other limbs as it would with a body armor on. Exceptions, like I said, are stomach and head.

[@thomasstewart1380]

Speaking of nice optic options, the EO Tech with Magnifier is actually goated since they fixed it a while back. I recommend it now.

[@GR1NDVHOL1C]

But the price is through the roof, I'd reccomend the spectre or the valday 1x6

[@thomasstewart1380]

@@GR1NDVHOL1C Wasn't taking flea prices into account. I've been finding them in raid a shit ton.

[@lukevondenstein7010]

The reason you were having so much trouble with bs ammo in the beginning is because it does have the highest penetration rating out of all of the 5.45 rounds but it also has the lowest damage and since you were shooting timmies it wasn’t doing much damage to them that’s why I like bp the best because it has high pen and decent damage

[@Drayle88]

Another awesome video. Ima run the Monstrum a few times, see if I cant get used to it.

[@SuperSaddlers1990]

FYI 545 BS ammos damage drops off a cliff on anything above a 50m range, it will do pretty much 0 damage at 100m (at least that's the experience ive had with it in the past)

[@wolfdima]

If you like head tapping with Monstrum - try Aimpoint Pro. Super clear 1Moa dot and x1 makes it so easy to tap almost at any distance.

[@smugstrawberry2223]

I wish the game would let you try out weapon preset builds before buying them so you could do things like hear what each suppressor sounds like or test the optics without paying millions to try every single one. Idk i feel like it is a part of Tarkov that should be more like a game instead of realistic, the same way healing is just sticking a needle in your arm and takes 7sec. Like it isn’t realistic to heal 4 gunshots like that but it also wouldn’t be fun to just bleed out or completely lose use of your arm of leg after 80% of fights where you get shot.

[@boondogglet132]

its funny because 2 years ago i was all over the monstrum when it was selling for cheaper than it is on the flea. Its a beautiful optic that is simple, effective and great for the typical 50-100m engagements that Tarkov has. 2 years ago i got bullied (in a nutshell) saying that "im dumb, OkAy... SuRe, just get a vudu like everyone else, i would rather use iron sights". legit, 2/3 raids my monstrum would come back on insurance because nobody wanted to take it. then sometime 1 year ago a couple big streamers started saying how much they loved the monstrum and everybody was all over it like flies on shit... the best thing since LED mood lighting. story of my life, i try and tell people that something is good and im dumb. someone else says the exact same thing is good and im still dumb. im noticing a trend

[@krackd-tv1364]

VARIABLE SCOPES ARE JUST AS EASY AS A FIXED RETICLE SCOPE every time i ads using any scope it is always 1x and then when i need anything else i have that option and thats why i love variable scopes . dont get me wrong i love the monstrum aswell but sometimes its easier to know its bit harder to see me from that far away and i can see them really easy medium distance like 5 mtrs the monstum wins out because the 1 x isnt enough to be really accurate but the 6 x makes your movements a little too slow on things liek the valday or the vudu or even the razor but the tac30 is my fave day time scope because its a 1by 4x for this exact reason and for me i get them for free constantly because i kill sniper scavs and take them and stack them up

[@instantpartyWTF]

that timmy seemed to not go down because BS ammo does 40 dmg, meaning it takes 3 thorax shots for a kill, usually better ammo is something that exceeds 85 dmg with 2 shots and decent pen, time to kill seems much better this way
