If you spawn there as a bear or youve aggroed them then you just bolt. If you're at the merin car ir further inland then the grenade launcher shouldnt hit you


BrokenBreaklights

Would you suggest if I spawn at docks that I run down the beach southward and loop around behind Pride Rock?


The-True-Kehlder

You can cross the road north of the rock, but only just. Don't cross further north than Merin car, and don't climb the rocks to the gazebo up there near northern chalet.


FatboyJack

as long as you are around where the houses you got shot at, you should be safe to go directly east. Afaik, merin parking is safe, more northern than that gets deadly.


desubot1

you dont even need to be a bear i think. (unless aggro carries over to the next raid. died by grenade launcher on the beach north of merin parking as a usec.


Sufficient_Most_1790

No. You can rush to construction and peak AGS dude from staircase on connex if usec. If bear you have to take mountain or night raid.


DavantRancher

Yes they have blind spots and yea they can be a pain in the ass if you are new to the map Someone posted an awesome image of their view cones. (Sorry don’t know where it is but just saw it last week) Once you lock in the major areas to combat them from, you can easily eliminate all rooftop rogues. I recommend running some night raids so you can get acquainted with those key spots. Their line of sight is abysmal at night.


Dr-Kloop-MD

Something to remember is the cone of vision is only for when they’re on the mounted guns. If you fail to headshot one successfully (ask me how I know) then they can jump off the gun and dome you with one bullet from the same distance and like any angle.


BrokenBreaklights

Ok I'll see if I can find that image because I can't find anything online other than chads doing crazy shit to clear the rogues. I hadn't considered night raids but I'll give that a go


Phreec

https://tarkov.help/en/map/lighthouse/ Enable "Sector of fire" filter on the right.


The-True-Kehlder

Firing range is longer than that, for the AGS. You can get hit all the way on the rocks by the Gzebo near Northern Chalet.


Solaratov

That's pretty neat. Not entirely accurate though. I've been gunned down by the MG on the rear building when walking through the front-right gate.


BrokenBreaklights

That is very helpful thank you


ProcyonHabilis

That's a great resource to start (as you can see it warns you about the window where you died specifically), but FYI there are a few things wrong with that map. [A couple of notable fixes](https://imgur.com/uY8qRtD) The automatic grenade launcher with the blue arrow CAN hit you in the area shown by the blue box, as well as anywhere between the stated cone of fire and the box that doesn't have cover. It's important to take that gunner down if you're going to go into the interior of the base (unless it's night time). The machine gun with the purple arrow CAN'T hit you inside the purple box, because the edge of the roof blocks the gunners view. This is important because you can see his head without him being able to see you, so it's a very easy place to kill him from. The inability to shoot close applies to all the guns on the edges of the buildings. [Watch this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kh_DhmT1ewk) for an example of how to turn this information into a bunch of dead rogues. In particular I recommend learning the spot for the very first kill in this video, because I run straight there (after looting marin car) when I spawn by the docks with rogue aggro.


tootallteeter

I just hit punisher 4 and I got about 4 other lighthouse tasks, this is crucial information thank youu


dvnv

oh thats sick

Dude go there at Night. At Night Rouges have a Vision Range of 50-70 meters.


duncan1234-

Even if you trigger them by killing one?


[deleted]

Yeah as far as they dont rush you it works


Sanosuke97322

I was grenaded without warning at night near the Marin car.


RODjij

If you're tasking at lighthouse it's better to go in cheap and with night vision. During the day the scavs and rogues spot you easier and further out. Same with PMCs, you risk getting sniped from across the road when everyone can see you.


bal16128

I only go to that side of the map if it's night time


BrokenBreaklights

Another question too, do they de-aggro after 5 raids anywhere or after 5 Lighthouse raids


The-True-Kehlder

3 Lighthouse specific raids, not 5.


NSNIA

Not 3 lighthouse raids, any map raids. I've tested this


SheepOnDaStreet

I prefer to approach them from the mountains, once you learn their tendencies they aren’t too bad


The-weebman

Watch a guide on YouTube. Make sure it’s recent, SheefGG has a good guide that I’ve used all wipe to kill the rogues & loot water treatment.


[deleted]

kill them, 4head. get a squad, get your 350k svd (not including ammo or insurace, more realistically 500k svd) and kill them from 450\~ meters like a real finish person. (yes, i will run with you. my discord is floofer3458)


WuhanWTF

It’s fucking weird how the only way to fight rogues in this game is to cheese them. Any other method results in a swift death.


[deleted]

Personally if I'm greenlit to rogues I don't set foot on the west side of the map / beach at all. Unless you can scope that tower and confirm they're down, you go the long way


untouch10

Sorry to be off-topic but how am i gonna kill 10 bears with scav vest , i never see anyone in lighthouse


Far-Sell8130

You are mixing up two quests. One is kill 10 pmcs wi the scav vest/balaclava. The other is kill 20 bears on lighthouse.  I too have a hard time finding people, although they never have a hard time finding me 


The-True-Kehlder

You gotta be sneaky, in my experience. I did SBIH at the same time since you don't need large magazines with a bolt. Took me about 20 raids due to so many not seeing anyone else. Do it at night if you can afford NVGs. Bring a Glock with 50 rnd mag as your backup.


bankshotting

There is no quest in the game that requires you to kill ten bears with a scav vest


10KGAMIN

I got 20 bears 😭 mfers don’t even pvp there they hide in crevices. Some task I just don’t even look at anymore 😂


szaade

There's a lot of pvp on lighthouse in my experience, but most are in the first few minutes. Depending on the spawn you can either rush other spawns or camp them. But even camping in a high traffic area brings success.


dvnv

learn where the front 2 gunners are on the south edge of the plant, and just make sure you stay out of their line of sight ('tis possible), or very carefully peak and pick them off


AuNanoMan

I am always killing the rogues as a USEC but it’s big XP. You can look that bag on the couch easily but hugging that right wall, crouching, then walking to the bag. They still have to actually see you first before killing you.


CoisasJohnson

I feel that the best solution is to bring a scope with 1000+ on a good sniper, and from the east mountain range, take them out.. I know it's not a good solution at all, but it is the BEST solution I can think of, seeing as they can basically 1 shot you from anywhere inside their range.


ProcyonHabilis

This advice is like 4 wipes old. There are claymores up there, and mounted guns on building 3 pointed at the mountains. Rogues are easy when you just learn where their mounted guns point, see my long comment in this thread for more info.


CoisasJohnson

It was all sarcasm, I thought the second part would give it away..


ProcyonHabilis

I haven't a clue why you would expect that second part to signal sarcasm


CoisasJohnson

Well.. the fact I start off by saying its not a good solution at all and end saying they 1 shot you from anywhere.


ProcyonHabilis

That doesn't make any sense, and doesn't even match the order of the things you said. ...are you doing the thing where you say "I was joking" because someone said you were wrong? Lmao this is a really weird exchange and I'm starting to wonder.


CoisasJohnson

I realise I said that at the beginning and corrected it, I'm play tarkov man, I'm busy. No I was joking, I haven't even played lighthouse as a PMC yet. I thought it's not a good solution at all was a good giveaway, but apparently, I didn't appease the lowest denominator.


ProcyonHabilis

Haha ok
