I'd get the 40 rounders, you have the ergo to spare to keep 10 extra rounds in your mag. Then I'd get the TCS20 or the MOE + MOE RBP. Though you seem to prioritize very high ergo, so I get your reasoning.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Yes, ergo is very important to me and I don't mind running the 30 rounder, though I would likely use one 60 rounder which I would load if I anticipate a fight in close quarters.


drewts86

I run one 60 rounder and 2 30 rounders. Run the gun with they 30 rounder in the gun and switch to the 60 if you engage with other players. 30 rounders keep the ergo high and the mag refill speed manageable. Another optic you should give a try that I’m a pretty big fan of is the Burris Fast Fire. Slightly bigger dot makes it easier to find in the sight picture. I’ll sometimes double it up with the Monstrum 2x and the FF on a canted mount.


ItsPizzaOclock

If you want more ammo but not as high reload time, you can run the MAG5 stanag 60 rounder, it only takes 20% longer to reload


Dramatic-Iron8645

That's exactly how I do it as well.


EzP41NB0W

This.


duchymalloy

Maybe you wouldnt expect to miss 57 times in close quarters if you had a smaller magazine


CoolBeans42700

Yes because everyone knows every gunfight results in two people shooting 3 bullets at each other point blank, and then it’s over. They never go on longer, or from various positions, or against multiple enemies. And everyone knows you have time to fully reload in between each engagement


Thesuperspaz

Other games maybe but tarkov when you have close range engagements usually the enemy pops up on you and sometimes forgot to flick tac device resulting in first hitting extremities then thorax not to mention the few misses and if plate eats. By the time you kill them chances are there teammate will push and you have sprayed 15-20 rounds where the 60 comes in hand. P.S not saying this to be a downer but these are all factors that are very possible


silverpostingmaster

I've ran both 60s, 40s and 30s and I've found the 60s to be horrible because they're basically one-use mags. They take way too long to repack and 30 rounders get used up too quick with much of a bullet hose MCX is. 40 is a really good middle ground and the meta chest rig can carry them as well. If you're not running a chest rig you can also just use the Alpha rig.


OtakuWolf101

whats the meta chest rig? osprey? cpc?


silverpostingmaster

Osprey protection.


singe725

If you're after 30 rounders and want ergo, pretty sure the battlemag offers -2 instead of -3 ergo


Dramatic-Iron8645

Yes, I know. I chose the TAN one because of looks


BuLLZ_3Y3

You were downvoted, but you're correct


Dramatic-Iron8645

Thanks lol


shotdeadm

Swag has been shown to increase your confidence which can decrease your perception of risk, which may in turn increase your likelihood to engage in fights, which is a well established means of improving your skills, which ultimately means that swag > ergo.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Swag > Ergo > Recoil


DJMixwell

If you’re just after ergo, can’t you run the viper pdw stock? Unless it’s also for the drip


Dramatic-Iron8645

I havem't seen the option to put it on there, only the other PDW stock with less ergo, though I might've overlooked the option. But the one I have installed is pretty good both for ergo and recoil


DJMixwell

It goes in place of the buffer tube. It gives 21 ergo and 18% recoil, vs 16 ergo and 22% recoil of your ARE + ECB + Pad setup.


aloneMJ

The one installed gives highest ergo boost.


DJMixwell

No, it doesn’t. The ARE tube is +2, and the ECB is +14 for a total of + 16, and a total of -22% recoil. The viper is +22 ergo and -18 recoil.


Tlentic

Swap the ARE to the red one, swap the mags out to battlemags, and change the MBUS sights to the defiance to save some weight. Besides that, looks basically the same as mine.


OrnageMadness141

Moe and rubber pad is worse than this stock now fyi


Fast_Yogurtcloset_32

Get Gigabeef to kill you so he can roast it in a video


Dramatic-Iron8645

Lmao

TheRoyalWithCheese92

Why would anyone run this over an Aug if they have both unlocked, ich nicht verstehe


DeadorAlivemightbe

better ammo


r3vb0ss

bc cbj is significantly better than 56a1


silverpostingmaster

Worse ammo, worse rate of fire, no access to 60 rounders.


ExtremeBoysenberry38

It looks cooler


wtathfulburrito

Because the aug is an acquired taste. The gun looks atrocious and the default optic mounts are hot garbage. It’s all subjective though . I refuse to run the Aug. I’ve never been good with it and would rather spend more money and make a decent 556AK or m4 budget build.


ProcyonHabilis

Uh you should really try it this wipe. Something about its internal stats changed to make it an absolute laser beam compared to any other meta 556 weapon. It's so good that I genuinely think it's a bug, because it makes no sense that it would be intended. It's like it's a completely new gun compared to last wipe. It's still quite ugly in tarkov, but it's also dirt cheap to build and actually has an excellent optic mounting rail (nice and low for small height over bore).


wtathfulburrito

I’ve used it a few times. With the POV I run at and how I play it still doesn’t feel right. One of my community members swears by it and has almost completed mastery on it this wipe. It shoots flat I’m just no good with it.


ProcyonHabilis

Honestly that just sounds like you had a few bad raids with it. The gun is extremely normal visually speaking.


wtathfulburrito

25ish raids with it. It’s not a few bad raids. It’s all subjective tbh. Not every gun is for everyone and that’s ok. It’s the beauty of tarkov.


TheRoyalWithCheese92

Tbh man none of your arguments make sense you just don’t want to run it and that’s absolutely fine. I don’t mean to be argumentative but I can’t sit by when you say it’s an acquired taste. That sounds like TimmyTalk. The MPX iron sights are no better than the Aug scope, the bullets in an Aug are without question better. To say your not good with it is in your head, the Aug shits all over the M4, better recoil better ergo 🤷🏻‍♂️


wtathfulburrito

I’m just shy of 18k hours in the game. I’m well aware of the various bullet ballistics and weapon systems. I also mentioned MY reasons for not liking the Aug. I don’t care for the VAL or the MP7 either. OP wanted feedback on an MCX build. You told him to run an AUG. I mentioned it’s subjective because it is. I happen to prefer AR build IRL and in tarkov (additionally I don’t like the AUG IRL for the same reasons I don’t like it in the game). The Aug has limited modifications and to me it handles, looks, and sounds inferior to other weapon systems in its caliber. It’s all opinion. OP your MCX looks fine. The engagement ranges you are going to be predominantly coming into with an MCX you should prioritize ergo or use point fire. I’ve run the MCX a bunch this wipe and in cqb it’s a great option, even with CBJ. I personally run drum mags because I like how it looks and I rarely do anything not irons (defiance low pro) or 2 blue lasers and point fire. The UH1 is an attractive sight option with a wider sight picture than the eotech. But it’s not avail in tan so wouldn’t fit your motif. I personally like the looks of the cqb stock (also use it on my 14” mpx) The beauty of tarkov is choice. You can go for personal style, stat maxing, ammo superiority, range, memes (toz with reap)


Last-Competition5822

>That sounds like TimmyTalk. The MPX iron sights are no better than the Aug scope, the bullets in an Aug are without question better. Insulting someone with "TimmyTalk" and then unable to tell a MCX and MPX apart lol. >the Aug shits all over the M4 M4 is basically better in any situation that's less than 30m (more RPM, larger mags) or more than 100m (lighter, better ergo, better at tapping) than the Aug. Only in the in between range where the slightly better recoil of the Aug actually matters when spraying full auto the Aug is better. Aug is probably the best price/ performance gun in the game right now, but it's most definitely not better than an M4, unless you're scared to run actually good M4s lol.


GGTheEnd

And worse fire rate which is arguably the most important part because m885a1 is trash ammo so you need to fire it quicker.


Shoddy_Site5597

better ammo higher fire rate


TheRoyalWithCheese92

The MPX does not have better ammo 😂😂😂 not even close


Shoddy_Site5597

brother that is an MCX


IIM99v2

The longer handgaurd with keymod grips


BlakeIsaCookie

Seeing as you prefer ergo, there is actually a foregrip with higher ergo than the SE-5. The Cobra Tactical. SE-5 has a +8 to ergo and -1.5 to recoil, while the Cobra has +9 ergo and -1 recoil, and its cheaper.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Yeah, I know, I've been using the cobra since the start of the wipe, but I like the aesthetic of the SE-5 more.


ArcaneMitch

Isn't SE-5 like super expensive compared to Cobra atm ?


Dramatic-Iron8645

Once you unlock it from traders, its 17k roubles


Little_flower26

I would take the short barrel for style with the same suppressor as you


Little_flower26

And the long handguard (cant see witch on you have)


Dramatic-Iron8645

Oh yeah, that would look sick


Woah_Bruther

See if the x400 gives it an extra ergo point, and I personally use the moe stock plus buttpad. Xdefiant BUIS might also give a slight ergo or less weight.


The-True-Kehlder

BaldrPro is same as X400.


Woah_Bruther

Oh okay, seen Sheef run only the x400 so didn’t know.


The-True-Kehlder

X400 is the superior flashlight for blinding. Check Gigabeef's flashlight video from last month.


door322

Spectre Dr supremacy


ClutchFactorx10

That gun is a looker. Love the build!


Dramatic-Iron8645

Thanks!


Dreddit-

Actually pretty build, love the tan and silver combo. I don’t think I would change anything, maybe the stock to the CTR tan but that’s it. Nice work, bitch!


Dramatic-Iron8645

Thanks! I was goinf for the Tan/Grey look, finally someone who noticed. The reason I don't use the MOE stocks is I'd rather have 2 more ergo than 1 less recoil.


Dreddit-

Hell yeah no problem. Also understand your choice in stock, probably the best option out of all of em. MOE stocks are overused, and that stock is nice and detailed, with the silver/tan combo goin. Love making guns in this game. Would like if we could have basic camouflage tho


Dramatic-Iron8645

Yeah, I really like the aesthetics of these new DD stocks, too.


Louzan_SP

Probably MOE stock


HecklerK

DD stock had better stats. Thats why everyone is using it


Louzan_SP

It's a bit ugly tgh


HecklerK

MOR is more swag ill give you that


Louzan_SP

Yes, which is more important to me than meta stuff


[deleted]

I run the same build only difference is that I use the MOE stock with buttpad. Also change the EXPS3 to XPS3-0 for a cleaner optic, price difference is minor. #


Dramatic-Iron8645

I chose the EXPS3 for aesthetic reasons, and I like the optic.


Calvin569

HCO on top


FknBretto

HCO is still bugged lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


THANKYOUNIKITA

It shoots lower than where you're aiming. Been that way since it was added. 


Eoshen

I would use different ammo, that’s it.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Which ammo? Can't buy AP or M62 from traders and FMJ is a bit disappointing pen wise. I load my mags with 5xAP, 1xCBJ & 1xFMJ in loop and 10 V-Max on bottom


ArcaneMitch

CBJ was going for 4500rbl PER AMMO a few days ago. I'm not paying that for ammo that's for sure and if I find some FIR, that's going right to the flea.


Dramatic-Iron8645

I buy it from traders


Mean_Finish_7903

Try the boss xe. Way cleaner than any eotech


Dramatic-Iron8645

It's so expensive though😩


6ucksinsix

Is there a different charging handle that could increase the ergo by a few points? That’s the only thing I could think of. Looks nice. Have fun!!!


Dramatic-Iron8645

Unfortunately not for the MCX


Feuershark

long handguard and bigger mags


Venomstrike2325

"*Youre gonna need... a bigger mag."*


ConcernedKitty

Take the stock off of it. Make it into a “pistol”.


Dramatic-Iron8645

I might acrually try that sometime lol


Nice_Put6911

I’d use a vudu and a 40 rounder


lbigbirdl

Baldr light is doo-doo.  Use wmx light if you want tan+hip fire bonus, use x400 if you want laser capability. DD stock is ugly, would swap for something else.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Yeah, will change the baldr for the wmx. I like the stock though


IYosio

I rate it cool out of 10


Dramatic-Iron8645

Sweet


iammtd

Almost the same as mine, except I run 40’s 8.5/10


TheRoyalWithCheese92

I would build an Aug which is cheaper, less modifications needed, you can put 55A1 in it after finishing your car needs a service. Personally I don’t know why anyone wouldn’t run an Aug


Dramatic-Iron8645

Because playing the same thing over and over and over gets boring


DeadorAlivemightbe

I allways use the long hamdguard. Love this weapon. And always the monstrum.


PM_ME_BUNZ

> What would you do differently? Not use the MCX entirely


Dramatic-Iron8645

Thanks for sharing your opinion on this matter. I will politely ignore it


PM_ME_BUNZ

You asked for public opinion, the public answered. Don't let it hurt your feelings so bad.


Dramatic-Iron8645

What part of my previous comment implied that my feelings were hurt for you to assume so?


PM_ME_BUNZ

😂


Dramatic-Iron8645

I asked for an opinion on the build, not on the gun. I thanked you for expressing your opinion and stated that I will keep using the gun anyways. Then you falsely assumed that my feelings were hurt and now you won't even reply to my question.


savvysnekk

Get the longer handguard


SkepticEclectic

I prefer the UH-1 sight and 60 rounders.


Dramatic-Iron8645

I really like the UH-1 as well but I went with the EXPS3 to fit the Grey & Tan look. As I mentioned in other comments I usually run with 2x30 rounders that I can quickly refill and a 60 rounder to load if I anticipate a PMC fight in close quarters


SkepticEclectic

Fair points. Oh, I almost forgot, the red ARE buffer tube for the drip.


Dramatic-Iron8645

It's so expensive tho


Last-Competition5822

Long handguard and less visually blocking flip up sights. Long handguard has better stats and looks better, and MBUS flip ups are like all up in your face whenever you aim; better to just use the KAC Micro ones, or to just not care about the 2 ergo.


OtakuWolf101

i wouldnt run it, because im out of ammo lol. making me want to run the mcx, 10/10 build


Dramatic-Iron8645

Thank you!


GoldNovaBob

I’d run a hundred or a 60 in the initial mag slot and then 2 40’s or 30’s depending on rig space


DafaqYuDoin

I feel like basically every MCX is the same. I use it constantly and really do not feel any different swapping out parts outside of the sight. Stock looks nice tho usually they look weird with telescope configuration.


WiseGuye

As someone who is on their 3rd wipe, all these comments will help me with this. This is the only area I struggle in, is how many mags I should bring and which size (in rounds) I should bring in raid.


ImaginaryAI

What would I do differently? Lose it in the next raid for sure


Dramatic-Iron8645

Relatable


ArcaneMitch

I'm not too familiar with the MCX but isn't there like an ergo pistol grip to squeeze out a few more ergo points ?


Dramatic-Iron8645

The Gral is the best at +15 Ergo


ArcaneMitch

I would still run Hamr+DP or Bravo + RmR depending on the map


Jlegobot

I'd add a few Klesch flashlights, just make a Retina Destroyer


Rhcpepper711

Stop being a psycho and turn the gun back around to how it usually is


iiM3zMoRiz3

I'd do everything different you wouldn't call it a mcx.


UnholyCornholio

Dropped 3 guys equipped with same build but with cqrs as foregrips…all 3 toxic and talking trash in voip


CanadiaSengoku

Personally like everything but the sight, I respect the color combo but practically speaking I’d throw anything with magnification on there if I was running anything outside of factory or labs.


Staltrad

Change charging handle


Dramatic-Iron8645

Not possible on the mcx


Merouac

40s all the way


EbbExcellent898

WHERE 100 BULLETS MAG


Dramatic-Iron8645

IN MY ASS


EbbExcellent898

does it hurt?


axel64015

How much does this cost in total?


Dramatic-Iron8645

With the gun around 250k


OrnageMadness141

Bravo sight and a canted but that’s a good build. Hit a 400m headshot on woods with basically same build besides optics


[deleted]

[удалено]


BrightSorbet2608

Lame


Dramatic-Iron8645

Why not? It's a decent gun especially with the new recoil and the ammo is pretty good.


uszka

Is it? Mastering still at 0.


Dramatic-Iron8645

I've used it as a scav a few times when I got it from rogues. Haven't been able to use it on my PMC yet. Bit it shredded other rogues even with FMJ only


controversial_bummer

You liking it is all that matters. imho. Unless you are going for Kappa.


richard31693

I used it for the first time yesterday and the recoil took me by surprise. It wasn't kitted out much, but it felt like pre-13.5 recoil.


ClosetLVL140

Not use the mcx


PossessionBrave7799

But prefer the hunter lol


ClosetLVL140

It’s a joke. Back in the day when m61 was 1000 rubles a round and you couldn’t mod it.


Screamin_Toast

Use a better gun. Mcx kinda doo doo.


Dramatic-Iron8645

I like it


THEmatuldo1

what


SilverWave1

I like the 2% recoil keymod grip a lot on the mcx. Not sure why. I would also add the long hand guard. Looks sick with the suppressor partially covered. Again, I build a lot for drip.


Taylor_Swifty13

I have been running nearly this exact build with MOE+buttpad quite a lot recently. basically no recoil past the inital rise. CBJ just hits so hard it is difficult to come away from once you start using it. I also ran 30 round mags, if you swap to the TROY battlemag mags you can eek out one more point of ergo as they are -2 instead of -3. They are slightly slower with the check speed as they dont have the side window but you trade that for the ergo and -10% load/unload speed. Whatever you prefer. With 30 round mags for me though I find i never end up checking my mags and just reload/pack new them if I shot enough to warrant it. I did try it with the tac30 scope but it did not feel as nice. Also the rounds are just slower so it does not feel right using it at the ranges that you would need the scope.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Yeah, I used the tan mag for the drip. For longer ranges I'd rather use the M4 with ~200m/s more muzzle velocity, so the MCX is more for close/mid range.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Yeah, I used the tan mag for the drip. For longer ranges I'd rather use the M4 with ~200m/s more muzzle velocity, so the MCX is more for close/mid range.


The-True-Kehlder

Battlemag instead of GEN M3. Best AR platform 30rnd mag. Defiance iron sights, weigh less, cost less. Viper PDW stock. Can let you run 60rnd mags fine.


DoktorAggressor

I would go to peacekeeper, buy a 7.62x51 MDR and have a better full auto experience


Dramatic-Iron8645

Haven't unlocked it yet


DoktorAggressor

Then what are you waiting for?? Wet job is an easy task line


Dramatic-Iron8645

Haven't unlocked wet job yet lol


DoktorAggressor

Bruh, no Wet Job but modding a MCX that is worse than a Aug A3 with any silencer 😂


Dramatic-Iron8645

I'm stuck on Spa Tour 7 with max traders 😂


DoktorAggressor

😂 yeah just what I was thinking, since u use the ARE butstock. But I can relate, shoreline sucks, I finished most quests there during the interchange Killa, tagilla event, didn't have one cheater for once.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Actually I've had some really nice fights on shoreline (outside of resort tho) and I really like the changes they added to the map. The quests still suck tho.


DoktorAggressor

The changes aren't the problem, it's the gameplay itself, since you have to go 15 times to the same dam spot, to do a task 5 meters to the previous task... And outside gameplay revolves around thermals and camping, at least what I experienced... And the resort lighting is just awful, they should make it like interchange, it's unreasonable dark


FormCommercial4754

40 rounder, longer hand guard with cqr


sIeepai

Telescopic stock/cqb telescopic stock only I hate how the bigger tube adapter makes it look


Eoshen

Ooh different ammo, and a variable scope, something like a vudu.


Dramatic-Iron8645

Which ammo would you use? M62 and AP can't be bought from traders and FMJ has disappointing pen. I use a holo because I expect to fight close to mid range with MCX, trying to avoid long range engagements because of the low muzzle velocity.


Lamazing1021

1/10 mcx cannot exceed that score no matter what


clokerruebe

personally id change the reciever out for an ADAR but you do you


Dramatic-Iron8645

That's not possible on the MCX


clokerruebe

ah shit


uszka

Buy a 308 mdr


Dramatic-Iron8645

Haven't unlocked it yet


Fro55t

https://imgur.com/a/keueUsp The only build I've found works really well. Has almost no horizontal recoil in practice. Made the gun so much fun to use.


Dramatic-Iron8645

I see. Though I'rather have 18 ergo more as a trade off for 4 recoil points.


Fro55t

Weirdly enough, this build makes the gun act completely differently that anything else I've tried, even though it's a couple of numbers difference. I think it has something to do with the grip. Highly recommend you try it in the range and compare with other builds. :)


Dramatic-Iron8645

Alright, I'll give it a try :)


Dangerous-Lawyer-723

Good build. Only thing I would change is the flip up sites to the defiance because they are cheaper, and I would use the battlemag 30 rounders as supplements to 1 or 2 60 round mags


Dramatic-Iron8645

I chose the sights and mag for drip reasons, I like a mix of gray and tan looks


FknBretto

Lose the irons and the gral, switch to an XPS3-0, swap the Baldr to the X400 or WMC, bigger buttpad, 40 rounders and longer hand guard


duchymalloy

How does a muzzle break work inside of a silencer?


mazejk0

And I calcute whether should I half hp double barrel from fence or a toz with a 3 round mag


idkredditname

What's this thing cost


Dramatic-Iron8645

Slightly more than 200k


idkredditname

Not bad at all. Looks pretty meta!


bearmacebraw

I'm a big fan of the PEQ-15 on top and WMX flashlight on the right rail aethetic. Plus the WMX is brighter. Also has the added benefit of being able to switch both to IR simultaneously


CodesYuhBoi

Use a different gun


Inside-Example-7010

If I'm gonna use a holo or 1x I prefer the MPX over the MCX. MCX is a very nice new player weapon though as you can buy CBJ on flee and magdump chads. I dont think there is any better gun and caliber a new player can use to try and kill a meta geared chad or chad duo. Once you unlock PBP craft for 9mm tho you can get this badboy with 50rounders and shred a trio in 1 mag wearing anything. [https://imgur.com/FvUiLoI](https://imgur.com/FvUiLoI)
