Exfil is a weekly Escape From Tarkov Podcast
On this week’s episode MTBtrigger and Ronal continue the cereal debate and talk about their favorite food to eat while playing Tarkov. Is there really a bad choice?

After spending a few weeks talking about PVE one thing kept coming up and it was the idea that development of PVE would make the conversation about PVE vs. PVP. Ronal and MTB took this concept and talked about ways it could be avoided and ultimately how PVE and PVP could be complimentary.
Do you think adding in a fully fleshed out PVE system would harm PVP?
Is it ok to teach players how to play a hardcore game? Does that take anything away from veteran players?
After wrapping up the PVE conversation, MTB and Ronal spend almost an hour on talking about winning 1v1 battles. This is a continuation of the choke points concept that MTB talked about on episode 36.
MTB breaks down a simple concept of offense and defense and how that creates a natural choke point based on play style and player preference before the ‘match’ even starts. He illustrates this by talking through how the concept applies in other games and then how it applies in Tarkov.
Following this break down, Ronal presents a pvp scenario he was recently in on shoreline and how he was able to take a fight to a stalemate until he found favorable terrain to continue the battle on and ultimately won the fight with a well timed flank. MTB then breaks this scenario down from the attacking point of view and the defender’s point of view using the choke point concept.
If you have a choice do you play aggressively or defensively in a pvp scenario?
All of this and more inside the episode!
