died to some guy using a bolt action after dumping half a mag of 762 PS into him at like 5m and somehow he didnt suffer from any of it
Found that out the hard way
Armor diff, take a lessons from thanos, aim for the head lol
No stock m4 best m4
Hilarious!
Is yellow keycard worth keeping or should i barter it + some ledx's for blue/green
get a rivals band fr
you should barter it for a band tbh
ong
yellow for a rivals band is a fucking steal
no use for it
help
do I call this in? 18 mins left
and how do I use it?
aim straight up? 45 degrees?
Straight up wait at least like a few minutes to let all the other PMC‘s die off or Eva so you have less competition
Definitely try to get a squad
TY
loot was meh but it was fun
the yoinks
(scav run spawned with a flare)
bro dont dis the ewr's
when you on 100 hp and barely limping to the evac on the power of pain killers, youll be worshiping them little guys
is the zhuck 6a armor good? found it in the dead scav body in crackhouse
The blue one?
YES IT IS
Tier 6
how much armor can a dude have! https://i.imgur.com/MR3CkRb.jpeg
Is the ppsh a good gun
yes
It do be a meme gun but it slays in the first few days of wipe
now it's meh but it's still fun
Ight but is it good as a budget starter gun
great budget starter meme gun
Svd yes
Is defender 2 better then slick?
no
does lighthouse usually take a while to get a match?
5 minutes into matching and nothing
am in a duo
we restarted our games and everything
if it usually takes longer then a couple of minutes u might be in a glitched/dead lobby, and u just have to back out and like in 5minutes max u can queue again and it should be normal
it is worth it for the quest
if anyone got questions and no1's awnsering u can dm me and ill do my best to awnser w/e need to know
Do I have to use car evacs as scav to make my rep go up with fence or can I also do them as PMC ?
sole purpose for fence rep?
as far as i am aware off you will only get Fence reputation if you are playing as a Scav and succesfully extract or kill rogue scav's or pms
trying to get fence rep up but some one said doing car evacs helps but i never seen any as scav
not sure if you can even use car evac as scav
but using it as pmc sure brings fence rep up
you can't as a scav
this means you can nearly instantly get your rep above 0,5 with just woods and customs v-ex
Good Budget armour?
Then what’s good armour in your opinion?
t4 and up is good, t3 and down is cheap and realistically only used to prevent scavs from oneshotting you
since at this point everyone has ammo that pens t3 at the very least
Not talking about tiers cause that obviously, what armour do you find urself liking the most?
whatever I come by 
the higher the tier the better
I've been using the Kirasa t3 armor, mostly because nobody bothers to loot it after i die
I end up using 6b3tm cause it’s both armour and rig at t4 with a cheap price of 50k but I’m wondering if there’s a better option
Lol
that rig is pretty darn small
Sweet thank you
facts
Yeah it’s the only problem with it
id rather use t3 armor and an azimut than a 12 space armored rig
Otherwise it would be perfect as a budget rig 👌
Most people got ammo that can pierce t3 these days
I did use a Strandhogg when i found it in a stash, with its 17 slots
tbf I mostly rely on finding better armor in the wild, or looting it off a kill
All the t3 chest armour seems to either be too bright or too heavy
just cover it up with a rig 
or go full target practice dummy with untar helmet, kirasa or that white armor, and an idea rig
what was it, bnti-m3?
Which t3 armour your buy?
press armor
not sure if this is the right place to post it but I have a cottage key that I am just looking to help people out and willing to burn a use on .......let me know
which one is bnti?
white
+rig goes over usual 52~ for 6b3tm
m3?
m3 is trash
if i need one, i just load up a scav and loot a few dead bodies
azimut or better almost guaranteed
my real struggle is getting rid of all the penis helmets i've accumulated, and never having enough armors
at least headsets are cheap from papa prapor
Haha yeah ig everyone has their own preferences
I love the barter for strandhogg, ragman goes "sure ill make one for you, just get me drunk first"
Imo the t4 + rig space is worth the extra 7k than bnit
It's pretty solid, I should use it more often
the rig sucks tho
tru
drop some stuff
GUYS I NEED HELP
im doing spa tour part 4 where i need to find the 2 generators
and here is one
its not saying that i found it
remember that theres a keybind to drop your backpack - double tap Z
useful to drop your overweight backpack before a fight, and pick it back up once its safe
I have a cottage key on shoreline. paid a shit ton for it for my quest looking to burn the usage up for others free of charge..hit me up
why do you need to burn the usage
i am drunk and want to help people. idk just looking to use it up
Mood
just rush cottage and leave it open for 40 raids and surely someone would appreciate it
tank battery right?
realism™️
So many scavs on interchange, I just killed 14 of them and let a few go, cause time was about to run out
Yea
dunno didnt check, i recorded it but he took 3 shots to kill me and apparently none of mine hit or his armor just ate them
Keep the sugar sell the rest
first hit wearing a kirasa blacked my thorax next 2 shots to my chest killed me while i was reloading my fucking sks. how? he was in full view of me and i hit him multiple times easily but he just waddles around hip firing a bolt action and kills me
Guys what the fuck is with that jump peeking bullshit?
Maybe unlucky ricochets
Or
it was a clown moment, he cant hit me for a bit while i cant hit him either cause i dont have a sidearm or anything and i have to reload
The one where you jump, turn mid air, land and jump again? And on the second jump you can basically full spray easily?
The one where they do some CSGO bunnyhopping shit around a door and laser you
acrobatics elite skill
Shitty movement bug that’ll be fixed soonish I hope
first hit from rewatching was prob a headshot but not sure, everything else was chest shots from my end
Yes please
Have never seen them move around the door, did see the peek as i described before. With desync it just looks like you fly by and insta kill the person
lag not desync
oh nice the file is just slightly under discord limit
well at least thats convinient
feel free to laugh
does mp-18 count for Setup?
two very skilled warriors
Missed
imagine how differently that would have gone if i used an akm lol..
Or rather than spam firing tooken more precise shots
might as well just say git gud
Eee, im sorry i wasnt meaning to be rude i was just trying to give tips
np i know i played bad but i still dont know how none of my shots hit him; doesnt really matter ig
There were a couple that couldve hit
especially with semi auto guns its good to let the recoil come down before shooting again, you will dispence less bullets but they will actually hit so you will end up killing the guy faster
a R m O r D i F f
And id reccomend using 20 rnd sks mags
ah yes i had a 30 round sks mag in fact and got it back through insurance
and lost it again afterwards lmao
Oh rip
1st shot hit his knee for sure 3-7 went into the air because of shooting to fast 8 has close but i think not quite, the last 2 missed once again due to fireing too fast
its insured still ill prob get it back haha
5
HOL UP
Yeah?
oh shit you're right
bruhhh these two teams are fighting for like 30 minutes
Hehe yeah
im tryna to rat, had 7 minutes left and they were still there. jesus. 😡

Lol
Im home tomorow
Thats weird
Do rogues spawn 100% on lighthouse?
Guys i havent played for about a year maybe longer and when i try log into the tarkov website its asking for a verifaction code which i arent receiving but i can change my password just fine
yes
loking for someone to help me out im new to tarkov
how do i escape tarkov?
lf someone with lighthouse task keys please.
Be nikita
go to terminal
If you craft something and then drop it for your friend, will it be FIR?
:(((((((
Bir
can anybody please help me with the bunker part 2 task?
Spike Obama
what did obama do to deserve this
Hes beem weebified
oh good heavens
🦀
😐
someone german?
probably
german max?
theres #regional-communities i think there is a german tarkov server you ccould try your luck there
waaaait wth hold up
why does glukhar task unlock after secured perimeter
i mean this is way more cool
but hecc
do scav bosses and guards run away from smoke grenades?
Idk but they do run from flashes
anyone with top secret key or recording studio for lighthouse?
I think I just found the best cheese bruh cause I know scavs run from smoke grenades
for chemical part 4, how do you fail the quest and lose -0.25 rep with skier?
You can turn that quest into 3 different people
anyone with top secret key or recording studio for lighthouse?
basically you can decide to hand it to either therap prapor or skier
you afterwards for two others get a quest to win their hearts back
the quest for prap is like 10 m67s
therap was 4 keys nothing too expensive
but skier wants 1 000 000 rub
so yh
thats my line
Turn it into therapist for the injector case
best place to get emela rye croutons?
interchange
what's the best light armor right now?
why is the mmac not a fleable item?
Sell or keep?
Reserve marked rooms are kinda dry this wipe
If you play reserve often there’s no reason not to have it
what is a marked room?
There is a spawn literally 15 seconds away from it
i have heard that there are like multiple of these
Basically good loot spawns
Like keycards, docs cases, weapons cases
Good guns too
why i cant see certain items on flea market? for an example, i cannot search for colt a1 buffer tube or dorms marked room key (i have cleared all the filters)
If you want a full list look up that marked room on the wiki
What level are you
15
maybe nobody is selling them
not a chance, using ctrl+v from wiki
filters are clear so barters should be included
Idk then
Could be that nobody is selling that item
i tried to craft some tushonkas and nobody was selling cruetons
keep
hey I was wondering which stims should I sell and whcih should I keep?
ok but then you can buy colt a1 buffer tube from peacekeeper and it should atleast show on list that i can
and it doesnt
look it up
keep em all until u know
Search on the tarkov wiki for the samples task by peacekeeper and keep those, the rest you can either sell or use
Propital, morphine, zagustin and especially MULES are good
also therapist needs 4 morphine so keep those if you haven't completed it
Mules are something to keep in your secure container
this too
Like 100k each
when i replace a daily/weekly, does it count as failed task ? Do i lose my successful task streak ?
If i dont accept an impossible task, and wait till the next daily, do i i keep my task streak ?
looking for a mentor to help learn the game more lvl 17 much room for improvment goal is labs eventually and sustanability constnantly broke
anyone able to help? I am kinda lost in the woods, trying to do the first quest from someone to unlock jaegar trader. I am in beginner channel 10
anyone with top secret key or recording studio for lighthouse?
make space make sure it isnt too long
no its not i have enough space
then idkl
sometimes it happens to me and after a bit it works again
just tarkov being tarkov for me
Still need help?
🤣
Whats the problem?
Gunsmith?
i dont think there is a gunsmith that needs a 100 round mag
why didnt you just do 60 round option
Mechanic says " They need a silencer, 60 round mag"
wait there is a 100 round version I never saw that lool
I mean 100 rounds is 60 
just fill it 3/5th up
frfr
now wtf am I doing wrong
im blind sorry
There is a Mechanic LL2 barter for an m4 with the 60 round mag
You only need 7 gp coins
you got rounds loaded by any chance?
3.8 kg or less in weight
with 100 rounds it might be overweight
help please just anserw
I don't think so
thanks
for level 1 prapor 5.45x39 T rounds are better than the other ones right?
Logically speaking no
I assume this late into wipe since most players will have armor it is
ps is good
oh you can? word
I didnt see that
thanks
I got 4 pmc kills on factory with the T rounds, thanks to headshots
nice
better than T
died tho, shot a dude like 20 times and he just shrugged it off
He has prapor 1
anyway, thanks for the advice
27 pen for 545 is just not enough.
If he has prapor 1, then 762 ps is way better
?
yeah well I still have a ton of AK74s lying around, so I'll stick with 5.45
anyone know a good place for gas analyzers/emelya rye croutons?
I said 762 ps
545 PS is a quest unlock, 762 Ps isn't
interchange, analyzers are common in olie / tech stores and croutons in hammol in the food corner
and I can't really get my hands on 30 rounders for AKMs so
And 762 is way better
are 10 rounders bad?
Yeah
or should I just use em with an AKM anyway cause the stopping power makes up for it
well are they that bad
Yes lol
ik they're probably pretty shit xd
for some reason everytime ive gone to the food corner I cant find the croutons there
if its semi auto its eh
alright thnaks
Check if fence is selling some 30 rounders
You can use 20 round mags for the op sks.
for gas analizers all decent spots
help me
Op sks from jaeger
i feel you
i just hit lvl 6 i speedrn tf outta jaeger
Ayo what are you playing my guy
AYE YOOOOOO
aye dont worry bout all that
LMFAOOOOOO
Hol up
Ill pray for you
thanks, would you happen to know why for some reason croutons aren't spawning in the food corner?
hmmmmm unluck, but now im doubting if im confusing em with the normal ones 🤔
Then why the time going up?
Idk if its a guaranteed spawn, you might be unlucky
should have the quest no?
I do, havent gotten to it yet
ah nice :)
you gona be okay with that?
yeah I'll be alright, I'm working my way up to it
Alright, thanks. Ive seen them on the last wipe but I haven't been able to find them this wipe
ill keep trying
grasping the core mechanics of the game and working on my aim and stuff first
then I'll worry about missions
Would anyone be down to raid w ya boy in like 3hrs
If you do the quest, try extracting from ZB-016, its right next to the letter
if you need some help Id be more then happy to show you a bit of woods in a bit?
the paper
paper?
No, i wish you could
jaeger letter
i'm actually not really sure how the quest works, so do I just read the message?
oh that paper 
yeah, im pretty awful but I will
or do I take it with me?
okay how do i go about getting people to play tarkov with
yeah so essentially, take it, extract give to quest giver
this discord
I’m awful too bro lmao
look it up please
makes sense
it take only "virtial space"
yeah man, shoot me a dm and ill play with you lmao
so it doesn't go in your rig and stuff
no
I’m in another group, I basically just ran into dude and he invited me
Lots of new people today. Must be the Saturday crowd
it was relevant to the conversation so I asked
I just didn't know there was a discord. I never thought to look it up
Understandable. Happy to have ya here soldier
but yeah @fading sedge if you get stuck on the quest lemme know :)
I can't play atm, sorry D:
but some other time , that would be awesome thank you
collateral?
idk
the sight picture just doesn't feel cluttered
if i restart account? will i get the first 500k and my starter pack again?
yes
i have the biggest pack but i played today and lost everything and only 60k left this game harder then i thought
where and how can i restart my account?
go to the tarkov website
login
check your account
and there should be something along the lines of 'reset account'
reset the game profile?
yes
are you sure ill get again the 500k including the starter pack?
starter pack as in all the stuff in your stash right?
yes
then yes
shit i died
Ah o, that's sub optimal
nugg moment
Brand New Anyone looking to do some raids teach me the ropes

tnx guys
Does anyone know if the signal pistol calls airdrops?
sus toz
Which one would you guys prefer to run on a day to day?
Put the suppressor, stock and the foregrip from the left one onto the right one and you have a really great M4
need help killing reshala for daily
even though im level 38, this is my first wipe, do i still count as a beginner? cus im struggling with the game still lol
I recommend using the saker instead of that suppressor
O shoot I thought that the right suppressor was the Saker. Yea never use the Hybrid 46 on anything but gunsmith tasks.
Swapping the stock and the grip, drops ergo but slightly lowers the recoil value, but why not the hybrid compared to the others out there?
Stats on it are just a bit worse in every way, and because it's needed for tasks it's way more pricy
The NT-4 that you have on the left-hand M4 is actually quite good for the price
Oh damn, just changing over the suppressors to the saker, massive improvement
what are the best reserve keys?
My eyes have been opened, i've always slapped the hybrid on 🥲
red gunpowder is only for crafts
pretrty sure rbattery is only barters/crafts
oh wait nvm
you need 3 for signal part 2
Everything is needed for something - rbattery has some tasks and barters, gunpowder has some crafts. You can always check on here to see everything things are used for and how much other players pay for them https://tarkov-market.com/
how is tarkov market gonna help with that
use the wiki and look up the item, that tells you if the items are needed for a quest and also what barters/crafts they can be used in
im only lecel
level 4
Tarkov market shows everything?
oh i iddnt know that tbh
How wouldn't it help
mb
i saw this video from 21 april 2022 where he instantly searches the chest without waiting a few seconds. was that a glitch or is that just max searching skill?
max skill
damn
it's a percentage chance you instantly search
You still might want to know if other players are paying way more for things than traders, maybe it would be worth keeping them until you hit 15
so if you spam click you can reset the dice roll
No, you just get a chance when you max it out
Which will never happen
idfk im going up very slowly and its dificult for me to kill scavs
lfg im fairly new lvl 5
oh aight tnx
i have a fear of loosing gear
That skill is crazy hard to max out, i've only ever met 1 person who has and he's a full-time streamer. Takes forever
i do run sks but somehow find loot wich i deem valuable and get killed
Do you run headsets
then i get scared
like helmets
nah i sold all my earphones ik whaat they do
Use them
rip
hear footsteps from further away
Gssh or gshh forget its name
if they have headset and you dont you lose (unless rys/altyn obviously)
All head headsets are good
Idk why i said hewd twice
Head*
Is oli log key a task key i forget
Anyone here has a list or so of guns that are worth what they are and which guns suck?
the ammo is more relevant than the weapon most of the time
Ok, i thought it was that lol. Ive had the key for a very long time
Just out of curiosity,Betwen Mk47,mk16 and ak-545 which one off tthe 3 is actualy good?
there's another oli office key, that fucked me over hard lol
Which was that
use mutant
mk47 right?
yeah
Gotcha
even with ps ammo it fucks
FUCK MINES
jjust came out iwth 5 guns form supply crate
Which guns
are rat colas good
yeah solid for 1 slot
Ak-545,mk47,mk16,SVD,VSS
Rd704 fr
all those are good but the ak545 tbh
II had to kill a scav sadly for his pilgrim backpack and 2 more so RIP my scav karma
learn where the mines are on the map boss,sounds like skill issue to me
woods mines are easy, i still get fucked over by lighthouse mines tbh
Maybe the mine ard homophobic, to you
i cba to learn them i just bhop across fields on lighthouse
is this glitched or smth
No
ok how do i fix it
You've already bought the max for that reset -you need to wait for his timer to reset
Also it took me so long to realise how cheap bags were
it has
i had this issue like a week ago
btw should i try to navigate the map myself or should i use a map of forest online
Mapgenie
mapgenie or wiki are pretty much essential
Use an online map, it'll help a lot. https://mapgenie.io/tarkov
Use these maps - they'll look cluttered at first. Hit "Hide All" on the left-hand toolbar, then scroll down and only toggle on "Extractions" and "Locations". That'll give you a pretty good look - feel free to toggle on some loot options as you go
I only have the woods map saved qwq
but wont i learn more by trying to navigate while having no clue about the map
you will not
nope
sad but alr
do both at the same time
What map are you playing
well idk if you learn more/less, but regardless you learn slower w/o maps
Any beginner on EU needs help with their first quests?
im trying to learn forest
You will simply wander around lost until you explode in a landmine field. The map is just to help find landmarks and provide some orientation so you have a slim chance at extracting
i need help with jaeger
which quest
Woods?
yep that hapened to me
lmao
find the letter
sure
ight but wait like 10 mins bc im in a raid
im completely new to the game is that koo?
what is the cheaper Thicc items barter
i think moonshine is cheaper
is the items case barter with oscope and meds worth it?
lfg lvl 5 someone to teach me the ropes?
what does "operational only" mean on flea market?
it'll work without modding it
ie red highlighted guns are unoperational
so uncheck it if you're looking for a receiver or something specific
broken armor, guns that arent functional (not mods that are needed for the gun to work) Fuel with no durability and stuff like that
yeah
I'm just waiting dude
wait you're the wrong dude
where is t0mu
you done dude?
so if the operational only tag is on i will not see fuel that isn't 100/100 etc?
you'll see anything thats not empty
So there is a 1.6 mil difference
I havent seen you in so long bro
Addiction
YES finally i found jaegers letter and extracted
alright come to 2 man squad 8
Goodjob
btw
can you help me find some mp 133 bc i got zero idea where to get em
The new discord update fucked with my notification settings😭

im down to do it with u i still need folder i dont have key either
i am freshly new and i need assitance
@patent kettle what do you need
2man 18 i am waiting

@true helm pm me if u wanna do delivery from the past together
Looking for someone to help run customs for golden swag task
no
ok, thanks
bruh i was 2 secons away from stashing the lighter and someone came in and killed me, like who tf goes to the trailer park capin
cabin*
like no one ever lol are you trying to run together?\
Arent you a chad to
Jagon
Compared to jagon
Are you a chad
Are yoy feeling good?
Wait what if you feel maf
Why would an item not be "found in raid" when I extract with it? I just looted this off some dude on customs but It's not FIR 🤔
that pouch must be loaded for the defib to be sitting there
only stuff that spawns there will be found in raid
Ya its a shit system
Any time a quest says "Find in Raid" to describe an item, that item can only be found a few ways. FIR (Found in Raid) items can either be
- Crafted
- Received as a quest reward
- Found within the raid it spawned in, and successfully survived with.
If another player brings an item into a raid, and you kill him, that item won't be FIR as it didn't originate within that raid.
If you grab an item and put it in your pouch, but die, you'll still have it, but it will lost it's FIR status because you didn't successfully extract.
i really wanna learn interchange but it feels like too few pmc extracts for it to be worth it
invest in 11SR
They arent that expensive anymore for what it gives
i mean level 6 seems quite a ways off
Okay, thanks man
oh yea as a level 6 youre better off ratting interchange
The extracts arent horrible theres just an occasional camper
Atleast on the servers I play on theres one like every 10 raids it feels like
my issue per say isnt with the number of extracts themselves just with the requirements
Require these
You mean hole in fence for example?
No bp
LFG lv 6 just reinstall the game after a few years. Looking for some people to teach me it once again 😛
tbh i still dont know all the looking at a map
If car extract is open its generally empty there from my experience and railway is 99% safe. Emercom is a little dangerous but safe for the most part
I was telling someone else just now though that inside of interchange is almost not worth it if you dont have the proper keys imo
And as a level 6 the time you spend on the inside wont be worth what you get without kiba ultra med and 11SR
i am fine with playing interchange as scav but not a pmc
ok thx for the tip what is a good starting map to get the hide out goin i tried factory for while but ummm yea figured that one out quite quickly
To add to this, hold off late raid for car exfil. There is a PMC spawn at the start and people usually camp around power to pick off a few PMCs who wish for the power to be turned on
Oh yea people do camp the shit out of the power plant
Some of those campers tend to wait until mid/late raid to move out (personal experience)
But if you play inside the mall usually they are gone by then
I use the word some loosely though
Oh really Ive never actually come across a power plant camper while extracting but maybe ive just been lucky
Lucky you lol, i've had a few and it stings each time
whats the best way to get some easy loot for a new player?🙃
a good map to learn as a new player that will be rough is customs
Easy way for loot? Scav runs with mapgenie open
Customs should be every new players priority map to learn imo
yea been doin that a bit
thx for the lets add it to the 3rd map i could somewhat get myself around
Lighthouse chalet and resort, the PMCs you may come across are most of the time solo
Theres good loot there especially for new players
thnx
Customs is one of the maps to learn, at the start your tasks will take you through customs but move you away eventually.. Customs is either chilled, or crazy asf at times
jo is there a safe way to get shitload of exp
youre going to die on customs a lot but that map has so many early quests thats its absolutely necessary to learn
would u say its long medium or short range combat?
heavily depends on where you go but id say med-short for majority of the map
Mix of it all, Customs is also SBIH requirement which is headshots 125m away.. So expect campers everywhere
Yea thats true but so is a lot of maps
Most of the sbih requirements are kinda expected. Woods, Reserve, lighthouse especially all scream snipers
But most people think customs is an always on the move type of play so they get surprised when there's a mosin man hidden in the shadows 😄
what are generally the "always open" kind of extracts?
it depends on where you spawn on the map
if you want a map with all pmc extracts always open try lighthouse
I run lighthouse if I need money personally
Its fine for new players too as you can get good loot without need for keys
Search the map on the tarkov wiki, it shows the exfil points & their requirements (if any)
if bridge v-ex is red to me, does that mean it will stay red for the whole game? or will it become green?
Lighthouse, I've avoided like the plague. My hats off to you sizzler
Why customs and not reserve
It means someone has taken it
What really? We call it loothouse here
lighthouse mains are rich
customs has a ton of early quests before the reserve ones
and reserve quests you can rat
Scav woods hits differently, but I haven't touched lighthouse in a looooong time since I got my 3/3 SBIH on it
wait an extract can only be used once? or does the red mean its currently in use
Anyone tryna scav ? Low level, only slightly know Woods and Reserve . Just tryna make some money rq
Green = in use
Red = gone
I have decent gear on my main and not tryna lose it just yet lol
hey guys can I show someone my interchange vod and can I get some feedback?
ah ok
I died and Idk how to like prevent it or get better
Anyone got any tips on killing sanitar, I play shoreline a ton because of quests and go to his spawns and haven't seen the bastard once
You should try the expansion. Its insane.
If you died from somewhere you didn't even see, either move in more cover or check your corners where reasonable. If you died in a firefight, rotate if you get the chance before you get a grenade or they rotate
Id recommend running it at night so you cant get sniped from the big rock
I've hit it a few times and best thing was a tank battery. Bedroom marked key is a huge disappointment
daryl can I show you my vod
we have had some different experiences Lol marked room has been very nice to me
But the expansion even without marked is still filled with loot
With respect, I'll pass on that
Golden rooster iirc is the best thing I got from bedroom lol
Also PMC routes are so easy to predict on lighthouse if you spawn at merin there is always someone running to water treatment on the beach
Oh man ive gotten multiple rollys, lions, etc
The PMC spawns on lighthouse can be incredibly frustrating. Beach spawns & Southern are the worst imho
Oh yea southern road spawn sucks
how do i get my peace keeper rep up without any tasks for him
I always bring paracord on lighthouse so if i get southern road ill usully hit chalet and resort and take mountain pass
complete skier task
The beach near expansion Bridge isn't too bad. You can get a hassle on & get a good spot to either camp southern spawn or move out of sight
wym
u need to do his tasks to get pk tasks
Friend from the west part 2 for PK quests
iirc theres 3 beach spawns and 2 of them are fine. if you spawn in the middle thats the worst
ah, what do u have to do for that one
because youll be beat anywhere you try to go
i have frend from the west pt 1
Spawning in the middle is bearable for me. Spawning closet to treatment always results in death. I resorted to hitting merlin and crying in a corner lol
would u recommend light house or customs for upgrading the hideout
friend from the west is just killing pmcs
Sucky spawn for bears though. Run too far up the beach and rogues. Turn around and fight a PMC. Run through the road and 5050 chance of getting sniped or making it across lol
tbh i didnt get my hideout going good until i got flea unlocked
where should i get that quest done
i just need like a few nuts and bolts to get it "going" all i really want is the work bench
if you spawn merin do you play water treatment?
Tbh id never play water treatment if i was a bear Lol
Depends on my mood, luckily I'm a usec so it's not an issue unless i've hunted rogues recently. Then I avoid treatment
should i keep bear dogtags for friend from the west part 2, or do they have to be found off the people you killed
9 times out of 10 I would chance bombing it across the road
part 2 u just need to turn in 6k usd
ok dude what the fuck
You can turn in any dog tags for the kill quests, but you would still need to achieve the kills
ahh
but part 2 as max just said. 6k USD
so i should just go factory and camp the office for my office kills + fftw part 1?
You do you for tasks. Whatever works for you
im not the best at pvp so ill resort to camping
I feel that, If i spawn merin I usually make my way down the beach expecting a PMC. You can usually catch them from my experience. If youre crossing the road ig youre going to resort?
yea itll be the fastest way to get kills tbh
I hit village & Cabins for Merlin then gtfo through shoreline
there's some crazy valuable spawns around village, I can't deny that
i just ran into factory killed 2 usec, then extracted with the dog tags, quest gonna be easy i think
Factory is a good place for the kill quests assuming you can exfil
But it's not for everyone
i had 2 blacked out legs and i was next to extract so i just extracted
i brought in mp153 with holo and magnum buckshot
is that good ammo?
village is fine Ive always had the best experience at chalet
aim for leg
https://eft-ammo.com/ I'm not sure if it's been updated to the latest wipe but it hasn't let me down as of yet
Escape from Tarkov Ammo and Armor Charts created by NoFoodAfterMidnight 🙌
flechette is something youd use against armor
they had no armor tho, they were timmy
thats ok then
if they have armor shoot legs
There was only a few spawns on lighthouse that I felt gave me a chance for a regular play. The spawns I'm not a fan of, i'll either do something incredibly quick or take a quick camp to avoid a run through lol
choppa gonna smoke
so i should be using clechette or ap-20?
either
high tear gear cant be sold on flea. gotta use it to win fights
google / the wiki will tell you what each key does and if its good
I only have like 60 hours in the game I have insane gear fear with that
op sks can get a mount from jaegar which lets you install certain optics. if u ever wanna see what stuff can go on a gun, right click it and hit "linked search" use the menu on the left hand side of the screen to scroll around and see diff attachments.
is there any way to change ur scav?
its ok to keep things until you wanna run with friends and chad up. but dont let it collect dust doing nothing. gear in ur stash doesnt help you win fights
if i go in to labs practice mode does it still use a key card?
just use it real quick. keep the timer going
theres no way to like.. reroll it?
that is correct. you must use it.
alr thnx
when you start out use ur scav as often as possible. learn maps, get free shit, get some cash. but u should not sit and wait for the timer. run your pmc with trash gear if ur scared, but running ur PMC levels up HP, levels up aim, levels up speed. all of those things make ur PMC stronger over time
yeah i dont have gear fear, i just dont have any gear haha
run whatever u got. just keep focusing on tasks until level 15. if ur mega scared or having bad luck, try night time raids with your screen brightness turned up.
Best advice for a new player is to join a duo that is not new
best feeling in the game is dunking on someone in 1m ruble kit while u have a shotgun and birdshot
and it can only happen if u run ur PMC
It’s so hot
yeah i know, i dont have any friends who play this game though
whats in the mags? bcp?
Few hundred thousand people here
fair enough
Make them
Yeah, i just vendor it
beginners LFG is right here in thsi discord, but it can be hard running 3 + in a team. gets confusing
Duo is perfect
yeah i was looking for that, but couldnt find it
Goto a lfg vc with 1 person in it
ah found it, looked over it
Can just ask in #beginners-assistance or #beginners-chat most of the time. Thats where i find new players to help. Or the old #pvp-lfg is standard
yeah the bcp kinda sucks. the tcw sp tho is totally usuable. i have been running that in the sa-58 for a while and i zero'd a hexgrid with it lmao
anyone have disease history quest keys please..
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Samples on the wiki right hand side, there is a part that says "previous quest". in this case it is anasthesia
🤜 🤛
what are the two best shells for Tagilla & PMC? is it Magnum & AP?
anywhere you can see your scav level?
magnum or flechette, ap isn't great vs class 6 but obviously it'll still work
i see the part that says not in beta yet, but was j/w if that's only place
magnum/flechette vs Tagilla? and for PMC?
Would yall rather run a trooper with blackrock rig or a strandhogg
whichever has less movement penalaties
trooper has 35 more durability but 3 more movement pen
durability isn't a huge concern for claass 4
honestly both would make me happy
go an shoot tagilla in the legs with magbuck for a free strandhogg
my friend got the cottage back door key isnt that pretty good
solid key needed for some tasks too
Keep it, it's a task key
scav level is based off of your fence rep
the higher that is, the better your scav loadout is
bro 💀
My friend’s screen when at night woods; he plays off of echolocation. Any idea what’s the problem? His post fx is already maxed
yes
How many minutes do I need to survive in raid without the "run trough" on extract?
how much xp does it take to get to level 15
alright, thank you
there's a charton the wiki under character skills
do quests
did like 2 just getting started
try to get at least 1 quest done per raid
would recommend learn customs very well cause i think most of the early quests involve that map
what the whole find extraction ting with countdown ?
honestly every map is worth learning
custom is a pretty common map
imo customs is a fun map but i have ran into a lot of chads lol especially in dorms
well time to die i guess
well yeah but assuming you avoid high traffic areas or pass through them fast you'll be fine
most geared people are either dorms or fortress/crackhouse, so anywhere else is often fair game
is keycard with blue marking guarenteed from sanitar?
is someone able to open sanitar's office for me? can pay however
hmm
They should be working now
I just skip that one 
use 5.7 or shrimp
i got destroyed by chad a few seconds after but quest complete 
no mony
pistols not expensive
5.7 is 32k or something w/o ammo
All my stirrup kills were with the tt
To make gunsmith more fun you should have to get a kill with the gun then turn it in

pretty good idea
where can i report a teamkilling kid?
I think it would be horrible lol def with rsass
what about the as val with the huge night vision scope
where best places to find all this
Interesting idea. I almost have a feeling, that I already have heard it...oh yeah, from Pestily.
I don’t watch Pestily
I'm sorry but why did I get a penalty for this. it was obvs he was going shoot me I even waited yet I get a penalty. you can't get more self defence than that
just spawned into a raid and got "Game aborted try reconnect "
Does this mean I still have to get PMC kills
yeah you need to kill usec
aight it's interchange time
Anyone around the age 12-17 tryin to play. (first wipe, but know what im doing)
12 to 17? bruh why
What's the raider spawn rate on Reserve? been there 3 times now and they haven't spawned
iirc its 40
Guess im just an unlucky mf then lol
Are you spawning them or just looking for them
D2, it's the prapor quest
Both, look for them cause theres a % of them spawning already, then pressing power
Ah ight
no yeah, but if the chance is 40% then i've had back luck, right?
never been good at maths lol
probability is independent
is body armor repair kit worth it ? its 250k
there are 3 opportunities per raid. once by themselves in bunker, power switch spawn in bunker, and hermetic switch spawn near hermetic. in 3 raids you have potential of 9 chances.
hermetic is quite risky however
gamblers fallacy
thanks but i'm looking specifically for the Bunker spawn, I wanna complete the Prapor quest
best fallacy there is, baby 😈
bad luck then, go again
i think I've encountered my first cheater
PMC was running 5 feet in the air
I clipped it
I didn't get the second part but he killed me with an impact
My game might've been bugged but he was defo floating at the start
I'd say keep it, it don't cost money if you use it to repair armor
