[brisk wharf]

barbed wire action pls

[distant inlet]

blacked all my limbs and my head and had like 5 hp on the rest of me

D:

[open hedge]

Don’t worry I’ve survived 0 health before

[distant fable]

how does this work ?

[torn copper]

Do I sell W323 since its always open?

[open hedge]

Aim at about 45* and shoot

[distant inlet]

I perished

[open hedge]

Damn

[distant fable]

i eman do u know how long it takes to land ?

[distant inlet]

shoved the stuff I wanted from him in my butt and threw my stuff in the bush

[distant fable]

i would like to wait close to the end of raid to be safe

[open hedge]

If fired correctly it should come around 30-40 seconds later

[open hedge]

Cannot be called in last 16 minutes

[distant fable]

Ok cool

Ah shit will do at 17 then xD

thanks for the tip

[open hedge]

Also can’t be called within 20 minutes of another drop

[distant inlet]

last 7 mins infront of your extract

ezpz

[open hedge]

I’d play it safe at around 20

Just to be sure

[distant fable]

OK

[distant inlet]

no be a man

last 2 mins

or as soon as you spawn

[open hedge]

As I said it cannot be called after the last 16 minutes

No ratting it allowed

[distant inlet]

oh fr?

[distant fable]

i think i fucked up

[open hedge]

The way I do it is call it at raid start wait for a good 5 minutes while watching it then loot it

[brisk wharf]

it can be?

[distant fable]

FORGOT FOOD OMFG

[open hedge]

I heard it didn’t work at end of raid. I may have been lied to

[brisk wharf]

I called one at 12 mins left on shoreline, said "airspace is congested" and arrived after 9 minutes when I am about to extract

[distant inlet]

Ive seen them spawn in the last 7 mins

must be auto spawned ones

[brisk wharf]

I always save it to my extract on my scav

[edgy plover]

[distant inlet]

might be diff for pmcs

[brisk wharf]

probs

[distant fable]

gg i cant put the flare in container

[brisk wharf]

havent used flare on pmc, saving it for capturing outposts

[open hedge]

That’s smart af

[distant inlet]

whats that

[open hedge]

I should do that too

[brisk wharf]

got plenty of them due to scav factory spamming lol

[distant inlet]

theres more experienced players in beginners chat then beginner players idk wtf yall talking about half the time

whats outposts

[brisk wharf]

its a prapor quest

basically wants me to kill in places where people dont visit after mid-wipe so I bait them with airdrops to come there

[open hedge]

Annoying quest to kill 15 pmcs in some of the lowest foot traffic places

[distant inlet]

ah

so u use that to lure them

[open hedge]

You can also use throwaway guns to simulate a gunfight and bait the chads but it’s easier to bait airdrop rats

[distant fable]

200 iq

[harsh heart]

Is it worth for me to get my BTC farm up

[brisk wharf]

that scares low levels though :(

[open hedge]

No

[harsh heart]

I just found 2 gpu's on scav runs so its only 1 mill

for the other parts

[brisk wharf]

the only way I open bitcoin farm is extracting with the ingredients it wants, and non-fir gpus

other than that, idk if its worth atm

[harsh heart]

I feel like it will pay itself off quite quicly idk

[brisk wharf]

yeah

[harsh heart]

the only other use I have for gpu's is selling them or giving them to mechanic for the quest

[distant inlet]

whats ur scav rep

[harsh heart]

who me?

[brisk wharf]

mine?

[open hedge]

With 15 gpus (a few million) it still takes 30 hours to make 133k then deducting gas price you make about 50-60k every 30 hours

[distant inlet]

flames

[brisk wharf]

just hit 6

[distant inlet]

WTF

how tf

[brisk wharf]

oh wow thats like 1 salewa eww

[harsh heart]

Oh I thought it was like 24 hours for one bitcoin lol with like 5 gpus

thats shit

[open hedge]

Then that 50-60k will take many many many days to pay off initial investment

[brisk wharf]

every car extraction & co-op, + factory spamming + hunting pmcs that happened to kill boss and got some juicy karma from there couple times

[harsh heart]

ummm does this happen when you take scav lands for the first time?

[distant inlet]

I cant get the coop ones done

[brisk wharf]

try the shooting pattern at co-op

[harsh heart]

@open hedge what should I focus on getting up and running after intell 2 now the the btc farm is useless

scav case?

[open hedge]

Get everything other than the btc farm

I’ve not done anything for my hideout this wipe

[harsh heart]

like whats priority

[open hedge]

This wipe air filter is pretty useful

Library is also lovely

[distant fable]

holy fuck this worked somehow

[brisk wharf]

try this "shooting pattern" when you are near co-op extract https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/og2p6e/this_should_be_used_to_identify_that_a_friendly/

[harsh heart]

vents 3 is so expensive lol

just dropped like 500k on a useless upgrade

[stark arch]

What would be an alternative to the akm with lvl one traders ? I really like the akm but i only have one so I will lose it soon, something budget

[distant fable]

first time at the light house

[brisk wharf]

prapor LL1 has akm barter for 3x small tushonkas, try goshan scaving for your fav gun?

[stark arch]

What is goshan scaving ?

[brisk wharf]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s-lL8Z8fAw

[stark arch]

Or you mean just scaving

[brisk wharf]

food spawn still stands in interchange at goshan store, unsure about the rest loot stuff in that video ^^

[stark arch]

Ohhh, ok I'll do that

[brisk wharf]

it should be unlooted these days

it was hell of a messy at the start of the wipe at there

[crisp lagoon]

tryna run lighthouse but i need help navigating

[spiral flicker]

Lh is easy

I would say easiest map to learn

[crisp lagoon]

wanna come?

[spiral flicker]

I am in work

[crisp lagoon]

aight

[rain wing]

factory 😈

customs and lh are the easiest ones probably

[harsh heart]

what the hell is this

it was like 40k an hour ago

[rain wing]

what

[brisk wharf]

probably you sorted it by highest price?

[spiral flicker]

Factory is poopoo it's not a map

[rain wing]

😔

[harsh heart]

no it was 40k 100%

I was doing the math for the BTC farm

And it was 40k

[brisk wharf]

it is if you sort from high price though 🤔

[rain wing]

no way

[rain wing]

^

[misty ginkgo]

https://tarkov.dev/hideout

[rain wing]

you probably sorted from most expensive to least

[harsh heart]

I literally sold cpu fans earlier today at like 38k

[brisk wharf]

i think might be 40k due to no stock

1st page starst 10k ends 35k

buut looks like some people rushed to sell fast and caused fast price drop

[harsh heart]

its slowly going back up lol

[misty ginkgo]

If people build bitcoin farm it will get sold out really quick, and when people get time to stock up it's low in price again

[rain wing]

hau can you carry me

I'm level 17 😔

[harsh heart]

you know what would be funny

[misty ginkgo]

not even asking me

[harsh heart]

to flood the market with low bids for items and it drops the price and then you just buy it all up

[rain wing]

sorry wized 😔

the max eu gang can carry me

[lofty hull]

Can you switch from your optic to your irons?

[harsh heart]

the SEC is on my ass for market manipulation now

[spiral flicker]

If u can play eu lmao

[harsh heart]

control + right click

[misty ginkgo]

200 ping limit, he prolly can

Shooting BP feels so good after completing Grenadier.

Idc if i waste some of it anymore

Just going to prappy daddy and buying some

[bold kernel]

Is living high is not a crime part 2 gone?

[misty ginkgo]

Nope

[bold kernel]

I completed blood of war part 3 and didn't get it

[harsh heart]

I have done one ragman quest and im level 27

[misty ginkgo]

You prolly need part 1 done aswell

[misty ginkgo]

bruh

Ragman is so important fyi

Ragman 3 is so hot

[harsh heart]

interchange is so bad lol

[misty ginkgo]

Yes

But it's worth it, trust me

Once you try TV-110, you'll never go back

[harsh heart]

the quest that I did was on reserve too 💀

[misty ginkgo]

And gzhel, so good

[harsh heart]

im trying to get jaeger 3 rn so I can run benelli on factory and farm kids

[misty ginkgo]

Benelli

Wtf is that

[harsh heart]

a good shotgun

[misty ginkgo]

bro what

you're trying to get jaeger 3

for his fucking shotgun

[harsh heart]

also fletchette

[misty ginkgo]

Flechette is so bad this wipe

[harsh heart]

are you high

[plucky ravine]

its worth it

[misty ginkgo]

Just grind the shit out of Skier, so you get silent caliber and setup

AP-20 much better

[harsh heart]

I cant aim so I like buckshot

[misty ginkgo]

I've literally killed 15 pmcs with that shit

It's so bad

And 20 scavs

[open hedge]

Flechette 3-4 taps slicks if all pellets hit

[plucky ravine]

pov: best possible shotgun ammo (excluding ap-20)

[open hedge]

But that’s terrible I guess

[misty ginkgo]

It's so bad if you're over 10 meters away.

The pellets don't hit shit then

[open hedge]

POV you discover shotguns

[misty ginkgo]

Buckshot > Flechette

[misty ginkgo]

Have you ever tried Ap-20

[open hedge]

I don’t use slugs because it defeats the point of a shotgun

[harsh heart]

fletcheete is buckshot is it not

[misty ginkgo]

magnum buckshot*

[misty ginkgo]

bro what

how does it defeat the purpose of it?

[harsh heart]

shotguns are cqb lol

[open hedge]

Shotguns were designed to be point blank weapons that don’t require any aim or training

[harsh heart]

Slugs make them a sniper

at that point just get an svd

[open hedge]

Svd is just a better ap20 cannon

Svd has cheap ammo with 70 penetration with 20 round mags if you want a cannon use that not a shotgun

[spiral flicker]

Bs 7.62x54r gamin

[open hedge]

Indeed

Bs and snb go so hard

[misty ginkgo]

PS was easily the best ammo last wipe

[spiral flicker]

That's cap

[open hedge]

Only 1 tapped nakeds tho

[misty ginkgo]

🤷 - i loved it

[open hedge]

Literally no point in it if you fight anything other than hatchlings

[misty ginkgo]

Rat rig be like

[open hedge]

86 damage would get reduced to about 84 with any decent armor

Class 2 armor counts as naked anyway

[spiral flicker]

Lol

True

[open hedge]

Plus if you shot from more than 15m the damage would drop to 85 which gets stopped by even class 2

So PS is overhyped AF

Before damage drop off it was decent

[spiral flicker]

Just go factory fr

[abstract bough]

can i sell

[open hedge]

Ragman

[potent crater]

sorry timmy

[open hedge]

My friend gave me a full drum mag of APM for my rd704 and I almost got killed by a glock because of it

Only the first 2 bullets were bp

[misty ginkgo]

That's funny af

[potent crater]

was he fucking with you or what

[spiral flicker]

Lol

[open hedge]

The thing is it was an accident he’s just that brain dead

2000 iq only

[misty ginkgo]

You sure it was an accident 💀

[open hedge]

He swore to god it was

[harsh heart]

https://medal.tv/games/escape-from-tarkov/clips/v3qvZcBBLcg0P/d1337kDXYHJE?invite=cr-MSxjVHosNTQxMDQ3ODcs

[open hedge]

Plus he’s not much of a prankster

He’s takes this game very seriously

[potent crater]

guess he REALLY wanted your kit bro

[open hedge]

We all died anyway

Except the 2 new players

Who have no idea what to do

They didn’t even hide my tac Tec and a player scav nicked it before I could scav in to do their job for them

[misty ginkgo]

Seems like a funny group

[open hedge]

2 idiots 1 decent guy and 2 competent people

Never 5 stacking again

Too much confusion

[spiral flicker]

Too much skill issue

[potent crater]

is this new?

[rancid nova]

how bad is it for this skin to show for pvp ? is it negligible ?

[open hedge]

The only thing you should worry about in terms of showing skin is your head

[potent crater]

why tho?

how big of a deal even is a balaclava?

[fathom ocean]

imma be drippy it don’t matter how much skin i’m showing

[open hedge]

If your holding a peek your skin is a bright target to hit

Also easy to see in the dark

[potent crater]

when black PMCs?

just got 2 setup kills lets go

know the stash in the crate near dorms?

where it is all sketchy and the back is part open?

[open hedge]

Unfair advantage

[potent crater]

do you know the stash im talking about tho

NAAH HE HAD NO HEADPHONES

[fathom ocean]

wtf are you talking about

[potent crater]

know the stash in hte blue container

that i sent an image of

some timmy ran up to loot it with no headphones and i ran up and just shot him straight through the dome bro

from the partially open back part

[fathom ocean]

flexing killing a timmy is crazy

[potent crater]

im not flexing it i Just thought it was funny

[sturdy elm]

Can someone help me with this quest on shoreline?

[potent crater]

no

[fathom ocean]

bro if I get one more resort task

[potent crater]

what task line?

bro i have never had this problem of not being able to pick what task to do

[open hedge]

resort tasks are great

gives me another reason to go

[rancid nova]

why are you in this channel even ? just putting down new players for asking for help or discussing issues they have

[rancid nova]

say something positive or leave lol

[potent crater]

?

I asked what task line he was on

like is he doing wet job

or signal

or what

[rancid nova]

nah, first make fun of new player, then say "no" when someone asks for help, then says "ive never had this problem..."

like get out of here lol

[potent crater]

what do you mean make fun of a new player

[rancid nova]

some timmy

[potent crater]

and what did saying i have never had this problem before

[potent crater]

they guy i killed?

[rancid nova]

do you have anything positive to contribute in this channel ?

[potent crater]

yah i normally sit here helping people

and i just said no i couldnt help someone with their task

[rancid nova]

then show that

[potent crater]

and having a problem picking what to do didnt have to do with him

[rancid nova]

wtf

[potent crater]

im just on all these shitty tasks

and cant pick which one to do

[rancid nova]

you just said youve never had this problem

[potent crater]

yes

never before this wipe have i had trouble picking what to do

but now i did tasks really quick and im stuck on shitty tasks to do

like setup, SBIH, kill bosses, etc.

[open hedge]

day 70 no gluhar

[rancid nova]

just dont type "no" when someone asks for help, you dont have to help ofc, but dont be rude for no reason 🤣

[potent crater]

I wasnt trying to be rude sorry lol

and with the guy i killed I dont think i had a picutre of his name

I just thought it was funny the way he died

and i felt bad he had no headphones because he FR did not hear me at all

[fathom ocean]

the pvp is so fucking lame there

[open hedge]

no

[fathom ocean]

mfs literally sit there for 30 minutes sound whoring and dont push shit I stg I hate resort

[tired dune]

does ergo affect hipfire accuracy or stability?

[potent crater]

I feel that bro

I used to hate tasks on shoreline but now I like them because they are the first BIG xp tasks

[fathom ocean]

shoreline cool I just dont fw resort

[sturdy elm]

new record

[fathom ocean]

finally got ragman lvl 3

[open hedge]

simply outskill them

[fathom ocean]

i can wear momex now

[open hedge]

90% of fights i get in resort are chad fights

[fathom ocean]

simply out play them and sends a clip of you playing w somebody 💀

[sturdy elm]

imagine not using monomex

[clear flume]

w key gaming

[open hedge]

bruh are teammates banned?

im not allowed to fight a team with backup

"hey man hold off ima solo these guys"

[clear flume]

gets fucked

[fathom ocean]

nah im not saying that im saying resort and pvp in general is way easier with teammates

[fathom ocean]

I didnt run it cause I couldnt buy it from ragman now I can

[open hedge]

oh my god having someone to cover your reload is unfair advantage even though we were fighting 3 man

like come on bruh

[clear flume]

wack

[sturdy elm]

Bro I have ragman lv 1 and I still run it

[clear flume]

half mask better

[fathom ocean]

no way you saving that shit

[rancid nova]

wtf am i supposed to do with this ? its heavy as hell

[fathom ocean]

is solo not harder?

[open hedge]

it

[brittle canyon]

use as storage cuz it has 2+ efficiency

[rancid nova]

solo is harder yes

[fathom ocean]

drastically harder

[open hedge]

solo is harder but fighting with a team doesnt immediately make you bad at the game

[fathom ocean]

my point stop crying

[sturdy elm]

can anybody carry me through some quests

[fathom ocean]

when did I say you were bad lmfao

calm down bruh

[rancid nova]

i guess, it takes 12 gives 25

[open hedge]

this implies that having a teammate negates all fighting skill

[rancid nova]

but these are already half empty for storage

[brittle canyon]

all except mppv are low efficiency

[fathom ocean]

yeah all fighting skill just think thats what im saying 💀

[rancid nova]

A18 is same as Osprey

[potent crater]

GUYS IM AT MY PEAK TROPHIES IN CLASH OF CLANS

[open hedge]

clash of mid

chad royale better

[rancid nova]

what is this cringe guy

[potent crater]

me?

[open hedge]

sorry i dont like waiting 10 years to upgrade 1 thing

even training armies takes a long ass time

[potent crater]

wdym only like a week

[potent crater]

~30 minutes

[open hedge]

im not waiting more than 10 minutes for a mobile game with surface level strategy

you have to pay money just to play the game without waiting months to upgrade your whole town to unlock another town hall level that takes even longer

[potent crater]

its just something to play in loading screens

cant paly it for more than like an hour

[dense canopy]

Do any of the traders sell anything to store keys in ?

[tacit ferry]

Therapist sells docs case at level 3

[potent crater]

YOOOO

do you think lighthouse or customs is easier to learn

[open hedge]

shithouse is bad

therefor customs

[tacit ferry]

You’re wrong

[valid trout]

I got monkey pox guys… 😔

[open hedge]

sorry i enjoy pvp that isnt just getting sniped by mosins and rfbs

[fathom ocean]

cap you dont get no bitches

whats best shotgun

[tacit ferry]

You lost to TT leg meta

[open hedge]

if midhouse didnt have loot then nobody would play it

[open hedge]

i also had a tt

[valid trout]

I didn’t get it from bitches

[fathom ocean]

how you get it

from men

[open hedge]

men

[fathom ocean]

💀

[valid trout]

Edp asked me if I wanted a cupcake, one thing led to another

[fathom ocean]

man

[valid trout]

Like I woke up wanting a banana

[open hedge]

thats so funny

[tacit ferry]

Zapwag wiped you

[open hedge]

i won most of the melee fights

[valid trout]

What’s funny

[open hedge]

im down for melee fights any time

anyone

[potent crater]

setup has bene a lot easier than i thought it would be but it is still annoying

[torn copper]

Anybody with Operating Room key?

[rain wing]

lighthouse for scav 🤗

[open hedge]

swag

[mellow island]

im like 95% sure i've lost stuff int he mail.. like insurance and quest rewards before.. is there a time limit.. i have like no room and can't sell much to buy cases as most the stuff i have was brought in

[rain wing]

I almost thought that was a 1911 💀

[mellow island]

i do.. whats in there and why is it worth so much? just for a quest? or is there like some sick loot as well?

[open hedge]

holy fuck 🥵

[torn copper]

broadcast task

[open hedge]

the best head set up know to the land of drip

[tranquil ravine]

what should i do with dorm mrk key? like what barter or just use

[brittle canyon]

required search and pick a barter u like

[dire folio]

Or use it

Barters probably better though

[tranquil ravine]

but what barter is usefell and good value

[brittle canyon]

pick whatever you like

[tranquil ravine]

whats usefull for beginner? i dont want to waste its value

[brittle canyon]

just hold onto it if you don't know

will be useful later

[open hedge]

lord have mercy this gun looks so good

[prime comet]

I’m sad they nerfed the mmac barter

That rig carried me super hard early wipe with the rfb and m80

[open hedge]

the armor was mid tier but the price made it worth it

now it can be upwards of 100k depending on wiskey

just not worth it

[woeful spruce]

Just get the bear striker and youll have complete grey drip

[open hedge]

im poor

but thats work in pregress for sure

[torn copper]

LF somebody with Operating Room key been looking for ages..

[umbral barn]

Anyone want to break in an absolute new blood to the game? 🙂

[open hedge]

“Break in”?

Sounds sus

[clear flume]

[umbral barn]

lol

Been watching YouTube guides, but I figured my first round would be a little more pleasant with someone who can show me the ropes

[limber cliff]

[umbral barn]

Thank you!

[shadow wedge]

Yall give advice here

[open hedge]

usually

factory

[shadow wedge]

How do I avoid getting shot by player scavs when im scaving, 3 times today I've just been trying to literally collect nuts and bolts minding my own business when I get killed by other scavs also just generally being shot in the back and im quite frustrated

[open hedge]

you dont you can only try to smooth talk out of situations

[brittle canyon]

F1 when you sense presence
F1 when you enter buildings
F1 when you see/hear someone
if they don't reply, shoot first

[woeful spruce]

Not much you can do about it other than avoid playerscavs

[shadow wedge]

It's happened so much today that it makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong

[brittle canyon]

also avoid everyone in general

[open hedge]

prime example of just avoid people

[shadow wedge]

So there's no real thing for me to change. It's just bad luck is what I'm hearing

[open hedge]

yep

[shadow wedge]

Man I've had 2 full fucken days of bad luck then

[woeful spruce]

You can try to make yourself feel better by knowing they are fucking up their fence rep by this

And will have longer scav timers

But its not as good as getting nuts

[shadow wedge]

Well I still feel bad because I can't get and xp to level up

But that's the name of the game ig

[open hedge]

Scav don’t give you xp

[shadow wedge]

Well I mean in general, even my pmc runs I keep getting shot in the back or kitted guys run my fade for my Mosin or DB

[woeful spruce]

This is mostly a map knowledge experience thing, eventually youll have a mentall map of areas you get shot in the back often in and where from aproximately and youll know where to avoid and where to check

[shadow wedge]

Hopefully, im fr just wanting to unlock flea and it's taken like 3 days and im not even lvl 13

[open hedge]

nah bruh

[rain wing]

should I just extract?

lighthouse 💀

or do I risk it

and go rogue

[torn copper]

when PMC yells AHH is it always kill confirmed?

[tidal pilot]

Im pretty fresh, is this a good starter "loadout"? Its somewhat cheap and idk if people would be taking it so insurance might have my back.

[whole thistle]

That sight is kinda disgusting but the bullet is good

[tidal pilot]

lol why is it disguisting

[whole thistle]

The outside part of it is massive

The reticle isn't too bad it's just the rest covers a lot of your screen

[clear flume]

just buy obzor

[whole thistle]

Ekp better imo

[tidal pilot]

alr

[whole thistle]

Obzor is cool too

[tidal pilot]

i have no idea what anything is yet, barely level 4 and only 1 successful raid so far

[whole thistle]

You can just search these names on the flea market

[tidal pilot]

its level 15 tho

[woeful spruce]

this is very nice, you can also use the 20 round magazine in it from peacekeeper but its expensive so thats up to you

[whole thistle]

Flea market is open for trader search before level 15

[tidal pilot]

yeah it kinda is, i found one a while back but got killed ;-;

[midnight dew]

how to kill the goons if they spot on me ? i tried to run but birdeye just one shot me? Some tips for them ? Will i have to wait for pipe and knight to push ? IDK what to do

[open hedge]

get behind wall wait for them to turn corner make suppressor red

[midnight dew]

they killed me on customs, first time i saw them 😄 I got one shot at the trainsrails by old gas 😄 i had no chance to run off 😄

[open hedge]

oh if youre on customs just take the L

[midnight dew]

okay LOL

[round ether]

i cant complete the mechanics build quest. i cant get the 12g muzzle adapter to complete the build and the only person that sells it is jaeger...

[open hedge]

scavs like to have it

[round ether]

haha its been taking me forever!

but ill be more persistent!

thanks

[open hedge]

player scavs have it more

so just spam scav

[round ether]

i appreciate the advice!

[woeful spruce]

you can unlock jager if its just the adapter you need, people usually struggle more with the muzzlebreak as no trader sells it at lvl 1

[rain wing]

but your scav spawns with it fairly often

if they have shotguns

or any ai scavs

just stuff it in your secure container if you kill a scav with one

[dire folio]

Or get someone to drop you the finished gun

[rain wing]

I could do it for you

@round ether

though I don't think I'd be able to actually like protect you and get you to extract

since ping shitty

[mellow lily]

Im getting back into tarkov im EU still dont know any other map then factory I just need help for my customs Task

[round ether]

i fortunately got the muzzlebreak, just not the adapter lol

[woeful spruce]

then its just a question of navigating woods to unlock jager and youll have the quest done

[round ether]

oh haha i just saw the quest for him

now i just gotta unlock him and do that quest.

never played woods before.

[woeful spruce]

woods is quite confusing, if you struggle with it you can try to get someone to guide you in #pvp-lfg

[dire folio]

Woods easy to navigate

[tidal pilot]

Fastest way to get jaeger LL2? Need it to build the shotgun for mechanic

oh nvm

[woeful spruce]

Yooo 2 successful scav raids in a row! i got a gpu and some sight so yay

[serene tiger]

Could anyone lend a hand with Delivery from the past? I'm on the factory part, not familiar with the layout..

[round ether]

yeah i couldnt find jaeger during my scav and died from time lol

[whole thistle]

You can't get his note on scav

[dire folio]

Only fir item quests can be done as scavs

[fathom yacht]

how do i get good bruh

[dire folio]

Practise

Trial and error

[fathom yacht]

i played 50 hours and still suck ass

lose every pmc

[misty ginkgo]

You learn by dying in this game

Find the mistakes you made

And try to fix them for the next raid

[shy haven]

any decent shit in this mess?

[dire folio]

Bolts

And bt

Also sewing kit

Pompom is S tier item

[shy haven]

damn right

[dire folio]

Im guessing youve done the first prapor quest

[shy haven]

I've done the shotgun part

need to kill the scavs

[dire folio]

Ah kk

What dura is the 133

[prime comet]

762 BT best ammo

[shy haven]

55.9

[dire folio]

Sell

[prime comet]

I think it still pens tier 6

That ammo

[dire folio]

Bt op

Mp18 is a funny weapon

Got my longest kills with it

[prime comet]

You can use it for that shoreline quest

[shy haven]

god I need to get rid of some of this shit

[dire folio]

Show

Stash

[prime comet]

Killing scavs with headshots on shoreline with shotguns

[dire folio]

It counts with the mp18?

[prime comet]

Yessir

[dire folio]

Weirdddd

[prime comet]

It’s a shotgun in game

Check flea, it’s under shotguns

[dire folio]

Have no internets 😭

[prime comet]

You can take my word for it

[dire folio]

I will

[storm inlet]

Did you see the goons today?

[round ether]

can someone guide me to jaegers?

please

[shy haven]

are you using a map?

[mint light]

@prime comet

hi

are u enjoying your new pc old man

[umbral parrot]

hey someone can help me i just bought the game now and i have no idea

[prime comet]

I am

Lighthouse in the rain at 80fps

Compared to 45 my old pc was getting

[mint light]

i be jealous

[prime comet]

It cost enough so I’d wish it to be good lmao

[mint light]

u didnt change gpu did u?

[dull mulch]

ratting at the 3 am factory because mother fuckers refuse to let me scav alive for 30 seconds on daytime scav

[prime comet]

Same gpu

2060 super

Just everything else is an upgrade

[mint light]

cpu and ram?

that was prolly the big improvement

i needa more rama

[whole thistle]

Did you buy gaming socks

[mint light]

zapwag did u see the epic clip i hit

[prime comet]

Ryzen 7 5700g and 32gb of 3600mhz ram

[whole thistle]

I saw the link and did not watch it

[mint light]

cant even support a brotha

[prime comet]

I need to get good again

In that tournament hauu slapped me first round

And second round I died because I had 300hp, one arm and a heavy bleed about to black out my head from a vpo scav

[mint light]

damn

[mint light]

zapwag will avenge you

[prime comet]

We’ll see about that

They’re both good players

[mint light]

geller destroyed by man on 30fps

[prime comet]

First round he got super lucky

[mint light]

they all say that

[prime comet]

Shot me through stairs to the lower nape

He admitted it

[mint light]

he is humble

[prime comet]

He is

But so am I

I carried on round 2 after being fucked by a scav before I got to where we were fighting

[shy haven]

Any of this decent?

[mint light]

marked key is supa hype

grizzly always good

dfuel sells for 30k

[shy haven]

someone left it

just stuck it in a med crate in factory

[whole thistle]

Good moneys

[safe horizon]

How is this game even supposed to be played. I have been in 7 raids, and survived only one of them xd

[whole thistle]

It is very difficult when you don't know how to play

You can kinda play however you want tho

[blazing dove]

A lot of learning happens in the first raids of your lifetime.

a lot of hardships

[shy haven]

i recommend pestily's raid series

[spiral flicker]

Better survival raid and better kd is coming after some time, u need to get enough knowledge and experience to get gut

[low heron]

are the discounts not happening or what? Prices are the same for me

[whole thistle]

It is not 21 gmt

[low heron]

oh ok

11hours

[spark arrow]

I'm not super new to the game, but I want to get into shotguns more. What would be the best ammo besides Ap slugs?

[rigid light]

how much should i repair armour

[shy haven]

flechette I think?

[rigid light]

under what percent of the original armour value i should just not bother

[spiral flicker]

It depends on armor

And mainly material

[spark arrow]

Im currently running magnums in my shotguns

I will try and use flechettes more

[spiral flicker]

Flechette is the only good buckshot tbh

[rigid light]

6B23-1 level 3 armour, armor steel, 57.3/57.3

[spark arrow]

Kinda sucks that the flee price for flechette is on the more expensive side

[rigid light]

double barrel with express on factory is fun

maybe not good

but fun

[spark arrow]

Are magnums worth using at all?

[spiral flicker]

I would use it 50+

[rigid light]

alright

[spiral flicker]

But 50 is very bad

[rigid light]

i will lose it next raid but thanks for the tip

[spiral flicker]

[onyx steeple]

Does he seriously expect me to find 8 injectors in 1 raid? Is this for real? Or am I not reading this correctly?

[mint light]

they do stupid damage to the leg

[mint light]

correct

some of them are near impossible

[spiral flicker]

Correct

[spiral flicker]

True

[onyx steeple]

Ahaha yeah skipping that. That's absolutely not going to happen. Ever.

[rigid light]

there's gotta be an app to tell me what is needed for quests and hideout

[spark arrow]

Got it, thanks for the advice, I will be running a mix of magnums and flechettes from now on

[mint light]

if using magnum never ever aim at thorax

[spiral flicker]

I got once some quest from fence to kill 12 pmcs on interchange 60+ meters headshot and I was like nah thx

[spark arrow]

Yea I try and go for head eyes or leg meta

[onyx steeple]

Wait, ANOTHER question, same screenshot: It says "Scav" in the middle right. Is that a scav task? Do I do this on a scav?

[mint light]

fence tasks are scav exclusive

you cant do it by going to black room so lol

[mint light]

magnum is an actual head magnet

[onyx steeple]

Ahahahahhahaa. That's so insane. Scav into anywhere with no keys, and there's no chance of getting 8 injectors. lmao

[mint light]

pellets spread out a lot and there is 8

and one pellet kills

[spark arrow]

Oh damn

[spiral flicker]

I mean if u go to snoreline and kill some fat pmc I am pretty sure he will have some injectors lmao

[onyx steeple]

some

Not 8.

[spiral flicker]

Then it's a

Skill issue

Like bruh

Just find them

[onyx steeple]

You go find 8 injectors in 1 raid. I'm skipping this one.

Thanks for the assist.

[spiral flicker]

[spiral flicker]

I don't need to

Lmao

[mint light]

dont accept quests ur not gonna do, makes the next quest rewards worse

on the flip side tho the task u get next will be easier

[rigid light]

i need a bulbex cable cutter

i remember finding some in a very specific place

[mint light]

tool spawns

kinda rare spawn cuz its 80k

[rigid light]

in a barrel cache on shoreline near the bus terminal

i swear i found it there more than once

[prime comet]

It does??

[mint light]

yeah

[rigid light]

the fuck

[prime comet]

Well fuck me I guess I never knew that

[rigid light]

didn't knew that

[tranquil ravine]

is dorm mrk. key for injector case good trade? i need injector case

[mint light]

nah just buy injector case its cheap

and use ur marked for cool shit

[tranquil ravine]

define cool shit

[mint light]

either using it or getting rivals band

[opaque vine]

you can take a gamble and try opening dorms yourself and trying to find one or just trade it

i've gone through 4 marked rooms keys and the best things I've gotten were 3 docs cases 3 ammo cases 2 key tools 1 injectors case. Maybe my luck is shit

[woeful spruce]

the room is shit, has been since last wipe

[mint light]

bad luck copium

[opaque vine]

agreed, last wipe I found 3 violets within the first month. It also had 25 uses

tanked midwipe and only found trash

[shy haven]

any of this useful?

[midnight dew]

nah

[mint light]

red flare

red flare big cracked

[woeful spruce]

red flair calls in airdrops on your location

[opaque vine]

red flare can all in an airdrop the rest is mid. beard for kappa quest

[mint light]

tactical sport headphones are a money generator

[bold kernel]

Guys does taking fuel tank to raid still refill it?

[woeful spruce]

i didnt know it ever did so i dont know if it still does

[mint light]

what 💀

am i gonna get a pit stop at old gas

[dull mulch]

I JUST COLLECTED A GAS ANALYZER AND ONE OF THE STUPID FUCKING RATIONS FOR JAGER AND THERAPIST, AND NOW NEITHER A VALID BECAUSE THE GAME CRASHED, SO NOW IT'S NOT "FOUND IN RAID"!!! GOD FUCKING DAMMNNITTTT

FUUCCKK

[mint light]

tarked

[whole thistle]

Most calm tarkov player ever

[dull mulch]

It's 6AM for me, I've been playing since 1PM

[shy haven]

sheesh

[whole thistle]

97 mental illness

[dull mulch]

If this happens again, I'm taking a mosburge to the cranium

[shy haven]

any of this shit good?

[dull mulch]

not bad

[whole thistle]

Ssd and lcd are worth a bit

Keep the m32s for use

[shy haven]

got someones pimped out glock

[dull mulch]

definitely

[tranquil raptor]

so at 11:40 am bst the servers will go down?

[whole thistle]

The forum

Not the game

[tranquil raptor]

ohhh

ok im dumb

[dull mulch]

f

[rigid light]

I know 9x19 sucks in pvp but it's great for scavs

Plus when one spawns with a 9mn it's most of the time loaded with Pst

[rain wing]

based v1 pfp

[rigid light]

Why thank you

[rain wing]

ssd worth quite a bit

sell to peacekeeper

[rigid light]

Also Act II releases August 16th

[rain wing]

oh does it??

[rigid light]

Yes

[rain wing]

about time

need to shit on Gabriel a 2nd time

[rigid light]

I wish I could shit on V2 the 3rd time

[rain wing]

i still haven't gotten the hang of the saw gun thing and hakita adds a rocket launcher 😭😭

[rigid light]

I'm gonna replay the campaign when act II releases

[rain wing]

grapple arm is busted 💀💀

[rain wing]

I just replayed it a few days ago LOL

[rigid light]

Alright enough about ULTRAKILL

With 3 extra special slots i am able to put 3 beacons in them and also keep one in my secure, with enough space for an AFAK and the surgery kit

[rain wing]

yes

[dull mulch]

do you loose stuff in your spec slots when you die?

[tawny pine]

Is it worth completing farming part 4 early if you have the graphics cards?

also, what is the RFIDR mechcanic gives us for?

should i just sell it? it goes for 300k

[tawny pine]

No you do not

[woeful spruce]

i think peacekeeper want one found in raid later on so i'd hold onto it

its used in some intel station crafts i think

[tawny pine]

thanks mate, will hold onto it

[woeful spruce]

oh yea and its used for the ledx craft

[tawny pine]

ohhh nice one

i'll hold onto it for sure

what about handing in the 3 graphics cards?

[woeful spruce]

i usually do it asap

i would argue the bitcoin farm is really not worth the effort this wipe

[tawny pine]

what perks do you get from it?

like later on in the quest chain or whatever

[woeful spruce]

quest done, exp

[woeful spruce]

lemme check

[shy haven]

Should I go interchange to get 1 salewa and get the jaeger acquaintance done?

[woeful spruce]

it leads to 2 new quests

[tawny pine]

ah yolo

i'll do it i guess

thanks man

and why do you think that the bitcoin farm isn't worth atm?

[woeful spruce]

its very expensive to build and even more expensive to get it to the point that it pays for its own fuel not even mentioning turning profit

[tawny pine]

i see, a big money sink

[woeful spruce]

its doesnt make enough money with the bitcoin price now to make it back to you before end of wipe if bitcoin stays low

but if you constantly craft stuff in your hideout anyway and always have power on its better

but noone really has time to micromanage hideout all day apart from streamers

[polar blaze]

When does discounts happen?

[woeful spruce]

for example right now

but also around christmas or russian victory day in may and such

[polar blaze]

There isn’t one rn for me?

[woeful spruce]

my bad it starts today at 21:00 gmt and alsts for 3 days

details are in #eft-announcements

[barren mural]

yo i got a fir dorms marked key, i dont want it how do i get rid of it for big money or something

[bold bay]

its kind of used as a trade for any toher item on the flea market, you can see what other people are offering for it by running a Required search on it and X-ing out the "exclude bartering offers" tab up top

[barren mural]

ahh okay thanks man 🙂

[loud jetty]

I need help on the checkings task for prapor. (I don't have machinery key)

[dawn geyser]

The machinery key has a static spawn every raid, like the unknown key

Brown jacket of room 205 in the Three story building

[loud jetty]

I know

I just need a teammate customs

People usually keep machinery key anyways

[ocean fable]

you can trade almost any key in the game for it. I recommend just getting the most expensive/hard to get (maybe even barter only) key for your favorite map in exchange

[ocean fable]

or barter it for a ledx. It will be gone pretty quick and you need one for your hideout that doesnt need to be found in raid so you can just get it like that

[low heron]

whats a good beginner gun for customs dorms

[digital sable]

From level 1 traders, you really don’t have many options. The ‘best’ I’d say is to purchase black handled knives from Fence and barter them to Peacekeeper for a UMP-45

[near furnace]

Any 7.62 AK cause ps has a better chance at winning you a fight than the 5.45 until BT and BS ammo

Or the ump

[digital sable]

During the first weeks of wipe this was almost always sold out. Maybe it’s better now..?

[near furnace]

It is

It’s up all the time cause people can just buy it from having leveled traders lol

Instead of doin the barter

[low heron]

but thats so much work for me to just lose it from a stray bullet

[near furnace]

You gotta get over the gear fear somehow it’s just part of the game

[digital sable]

Yeah other than UMP, I’d grab a VPO-316 and just spam PS at people. Either that or a scav MP-153 with some kind of buckshot

[oblique sleet]

i need someone to run with me and teach me

[digital sable]

It’s like a 35k gun buying knives from Fence

[low heron]

ahh fk i didnt see that part

[near furnace]

Ump def gets worse as the wipe goes on but rn it should still be ok

[low heron]

in a raid gtg

[digital sable]

With the .45 FMJ ammo you won’t pen most armor. You need to aim for faces or legs

[near furnace]

Always see lvl 20s with umps on reserve lol

Bro I’m tired of skier and jaeger quests

Fuck planting ur camera on woods

[grave heath]

i need someone to guide me to exfil please

chitchat 2 reserve

[dawn geyser]

Do you have a second screen to open up the text chat for the lobby?

Nvm you found one

[grave heath]

no

[quartz tiger]

for bartar trades on flea, do items need to be found in raid to hand in?

[dawn geyser]

Yes

[grave heath]

can anyone help me out pls?

[ocean fable]

yes come to LFG Reserve 2 quickly

[oblique sleet]

im new to the game i need help can someone run with me i learn quick

can anyone help

[fiery halo]

anyone able to help me get the bronze pocket watch? i keep dying before i can extract

I bought the game yesterday, i know how to pvp but i usually die when i bring in a shotgun D:

[vale niche]

I cant open the launcher cause mac doesnt support exe

What should i do??

[limpid wadi]

Get a pc

[bold bay]

lol

[vale niche]

Can someone help out?

Please

[limpid wadi]

Does the game even support MAC?

[bold bay]

i dont think so?

[vale niche]

With like bootcamp iirc

[bold bay]

check the official site

[rigid elbow]

Does the mp-43 jam/malfunction?

[pallid kernel]

doesnt everything jam and malfunction when low on durability?

id assume there is something that can go wrong

[rigid elbow]

Idk, I just really dislike malfunctions but usually all the mp-43s I find are pretty beat up so if it's very jam prone I'd avoid it, but i can't remember too many fights where it was a problem

[pallid kernel]

dont tell me u use shit guns as a pmc

also the mp43 1c costs like 8k roubles at jaeger ll1

full durability

[rigid elbow]

Ah is that so? I better get to unlocking him then lol, I just really hate woods

[pallid kernel]

100% get jaeger

he does really good trades

the best one being the OP-SKS

[low heron]

how good/bad is .45 FMJ customs tasks

ump45

[pallid kernel]

match fmj isnt too bad

[low heron]

is the only bullets i can buy for the gun im pretty sure

[pallid kernel]

i think so

less than 1 dollar a bullet

[low heron]

man this gun is like dream compared to ak 74u

recoil is so small

[pallid kernel]

ak 74 is shit tbh

[low heron]

nvm

[pallid kernel]

have you tried the op sks?

its really good

probably my favorite trader gun

for early stuff

[low heron]

i did once but i got caught in a bad position and died

[pallid kernel]

did you mount any optics on it?

[low heron]

the one you can get from prapor

[pallid kernel]

kobra?

[sullen token]

Hey, I still don't get how to properly search for mods for a gun. For example when I want to find a new grip for a MP-133, I just click on a linked search and it should list everything for that gun, right? Why a grip isn't there, when I manually found him at one trader?

[low heron]

axion kobra yh

[pallid kernel]

if the part attaches directly to the gun then yes

if the grip attaches to a rail, you have to link search the rail

and so on

you are basically just going down the roots

[pallid kernel]

also make sure to buy a shade for the kobra

or whatever its called

removes the -ergo penalty

600 roubles

very cheap

[woeful spruce]

linked search shows you only stuff that directly ataches to the part you chose. by right cklicking a gun you search the bare reciever by default so if you want to search for a grip you gotta linked search the part that that grip would atach to like a handguard or in the case of a shotgun the pump

[low heron]

ok, the gun is more expensive than ump45 tho

[pallid kernel]

not really

[low heron]

and whats the best bullets i can get for it?

[pallid kernel]

ump is 35k worth of knives

op sks is 30k

[pallid kernel]

7.62x39mm PS

the standard

[sullen token]

Ok, I get this. But from this I assume this grip goes directly on an MP-133, but linked search isn't showing it?

[low heron]

the sks from jaeger or prapor?

[pallid kernel]

it isnt showing you where to buy it?

[low heron]

the one from jaeger is more expensive by around 1k

[pallid kernel]

jaeger is OP SKS

prapor is normal one

[low heron]

oh ok

[pallid kernel]

cant mount scopes on it

[low heron]

bruh its literally called op-sks i thought you were saying it cus you thought it was op

[pallid kernel]

they are pretty much the same in terms of performance

[sullen token]

yes, linked search isn't showing me this grip, but I found it at Jager

[pallid kernel]

i thought that too when i was starting lmao

but the name isnt wrong either lmao

[woeful spruce]

it should show it under gear mods>stocks chassies it shows up for me

[bold bay]

linked search finds parts that will attach to whatever youre searching

[low heron]

ill give sks another shot, felt better than other guns even though i only got to kill scavs with it

[vale niche]

Well great, now i have tarkov just sitting there

[pallid kernel]

its good

[vale niche]

Cant install it

[pallid kernel]

worth 30k + sight

[vale niche]

Fml

[pallid kernel]

why

[surreal otter]

isit better to sell bolts or save them for mag and nade cases

[clear flume]

you can put it on a 133 or 153

[vale niche]

Wym

[pallid kernel]

i just did a linked search for it and found the grip

[clear flume]

it can be installed on the shotguns

[scenic pagoda]

What is this golden glow on scavs that I see when I play scav?

[bold bay]

i think hes talking aout not being able to install tarkov on his mac

[vale niche]

Im talking about being able to install tarkov

[pallid kernel]

depends

u got flea?

[vale niche]

^

[clear flume]

ohhhhh
i got mixed up between people

[violet furnace]

mf juist tanked 4 shots to head with acp ap

[clear flume]

my bad

[vale niche]

all good

[surreal otter]

ye

[clear flume]

im too tired for this shit

[pallid kernel]

then do whatever you want lmao

you can always buy more

if you need them

[surreal otter]

hmm

true

guess ill sell them sinec im broke

[pallid kernel]

go for it

@sullen token u still got problems with linked search?

[dull mulch]

cool

[pallid kernel]

what type of bread is that?

[vale niche]

I think the best thing for me woulf to use this mac for like two more years, sell it and buy a pc

[pallid kernel]

why would you even buy a mac

[vale niche]

I need it cause of school

[pallid kernel]

oof

overpriced doodoo

[sullen token]

NVM...I am just stupid, I didn't notice there is a 2nd page of items, I though it will go indefinitely. Thank you and sorry 😄

[bold bay]

just paying for a glowing apple logo with those things

[pallid kernel]

glad you solved it

[pallid kernel]

basically

[brittle canyon]

it’s really good at being an apple product

that can be good or bad

[pallid kernel]

its just overpriced

like everything coming from apple

[cobalt escarp]

Air filtering unit - is it bugged ?

[brittle canyon]

but the price is bad… until you realize that on its home ground (which is pretty small) it’s not a bad deal

[pallid kernel]

also i heard that you cant really repair those things

at least yourself

[brittle canyon]

no lol

[dull mulch]

the legal kind

[pallid kernel]

you also cant really upgrade them, correct?

[brittle canyon]

but damn apple silicon is fuckin sexy

[brittle canyon]

yes M1/M2 has soldered onboard ram sitting right next to cpu enabling zero latency

[pallid kernel]

apple still exists because of ppl like you lmao

[brittle canyon]

dude have you LOOKED at the benchmarks

[pallid kernel]

id bet that a pc build that costs the same would perform better

[brittle canyon]

it’s amazing at precisely two things: content creation (high load video editing), and long playtime content consumption

and that in a package that fits in a bag

for every other usecase get a windows machine

[pallid kernel]

this is probably the only good thing

that a pc cant really do

[brittle canyon]

or a windows laptop

[pallid kernel]

most laptops are bad yea

also i just hate the mac os and the lack of compatability with a lot of things

[winter oar]

anyone down for some tarky? beginners 16 im in NA

[brittle canyon]

yes it’s designed to keep you in their playground

[pallid kernel]

why you say tarky man

[brittle canyon]

it’s fuckin smooth tho

windows just feels dirty

[pallid kernel]

why

[winter oar]

why not

[pallid kernel]

i assume you mean the OS feels nice, and not the physical thing?

[brittle canyon]

yes

[pallid kernel]

windows can be really smooth

if you take care of it

[brittle canyon]

for one they are willing to invest the overhead of supersampling the entire fuckin os just to make it look good on retina display (tm) (c)

[open hedge]

Hard disagree I hate Mac OS

I hate it so much

[pallid kernel]

why the hate

[open hedge]

Literally the antichrist

[brittle canyon]

it’s bad but bad things can be sexy

[pallid kernel]

what did mac os do to you

to hate it

[open hedge]

I was forced to use it all year in 2 classes

[brittle canyon]

lol

[pallid kernel]

understandable

id be livid too

[brittle canyon]

meh I had to live with it when I was in high school

it’s ok

[pallid kernel]

ive been using windows since i was like 5, so i cant really change now

not that i even want to

i do miss windows 7 tho

[brittle canyon]

something something linux

[open hedge]

Also those things have the most piss poor ability to restrict your downloads it’s actually funny

[pallid kernel]

windows 10 isnt too bad, its got some nice features

but still

[daring basalt]

anyone able to help me with my stash like help me with what i should sell and what i should be keeping

[pallid kernel]

id use win 7 if i could
