okay how high should I allow my ping to be in this game? I feel like it feels different in every game
I have pretty much all of europe, a lil bit of russia and middle east , but they go up to 80 ish ping (best one is 35 more or less)
i would say dont go past like 70
gotchu! thanks
i claimed my drops before i created a character, do i still get them?
Chemical Part 4
So I chose therapist and lost rep for Prapor and Skier and how do I get back?
is anyone willing to help me do the bunker pt 1 and 2?
Mehanic lvl 1 no longer has ammo case?
Mech 2 iirc
ah dang okay
u can get one for free as a new year gift from bsg
Is Chemical Part 4 worth doing?
Since you lose rep
servers still down?
you canget on on the barter for th mpx mechanic
Oh how you claim those?
im pretty sure therapist gives u injector case and the rep can be gained back the traders give u quests to gain it back
Website
Ty
go to your profile on the website scroll down and a picture of an aug is there, click it
kk
Im not seeing nothing
you can 'buy back' the rep
How
ight im grtting back to tarkov factory
The other 2 traders give you quests where they just ask for random items or money
Non fir
How do i get gunsmith part 9? Done gunsmith part 8
how do i lvl up fast?
oh cool
quests
you will get quests for whoever you don't hand it in
Very good
I was worried I had to do another 10 quests or so
ie you give it to therapist, you have to pay 1m to skier and give some grenades to prapor
or you give to skier and you have to give some keys to therapist and grenades to prapor
best to give to therapist, u get injector case
prapor u just give grenades and skiers one u can ignore
I ignore skiers
You can either pay Skier or do more quests to get the rep back
if you don't have EOD, I'd give to skier and just buy injector from flea.
Grenades for Prapor don't need to be FIR, same as keys to Threapist (should you hand it into skier)
thats why u get eod
you also get grenade case from skier, which offsets some of the cost of the injector
and u dont need to do stuff from skier
'eh, depends on how much they quest
fair point
a few standard account friends have had issues in previous wipes
hey... i get like every raid a game crash with the error message " Unity 2019.4.39f1_78d14dfa024b " .... what can i do about that?
reinstall tarkovv
Can I use an armoured rig for task 'Unprotected But Dangerous' (Jaeger)
dont think so
i did allready
Nope
do the thing someone said in #beginners-chat
can probably use the new armor, unless BSG didn't forget to add it to the list, like they usually do.
at least when they added MMAC, you could use that.
has anyone done the road closed task?
what trader?
pk
I have been lacking on pk's quests so no
I’m still on the first prapor quest bro I cannot find an mp133 anywhere
shit is rough
So run with armour then take it off when scav is around? or just go straight without?
run with armour and take off
thats what i did
k thx
incase u find boss or players
get jager and buy them from him
I still haven’t unlocked him
get him rn, unlocking him should have been ur first raid
I’ve completed like 8 raids and I still haven’t unlocked him
how do you split ammo again
alt drag or shift
one of the two
How long does the quest cooldown take?
You got to pick up the letter for Jaeger which is under the little perching nest, not just go into the area
Then exfil with the letter & hand it into mechanic before you go into another raid (incase you die)
am i ableto sell sledgehammer on flee
Paca, soldier helmet, bank robber rig and a cheap weapon/ammo that you can tap heads/legs with
ok
anyone got directors key that can help me out with the quest?
if found in raid you can sell them later during the wipe for decent money, or use them yourself in the booze gen if you get that far
i am holding onto to every sugar and chocolate i can find atm
There’s a barter for it with therapist
yes
sell them when you have flee
they go around 50k-70k
Not right now they don’t
yo i got a small question
how do I use a split on blacked legs? i drag and let go on my legs and it didnt do anything?
now is the time to stockpile sugar for later
Do they have to be specifically broken to use it?
splint is for fracture
ah
black = you need cms or surv
splints only fix fractures, to fix a black limp use a cms or surv
for black limbs? no
no wait
I have CMS, I got the names mixed up
So, bring bandage for bleed, AI 2 for health, and CMS for blacked limbs?
Thats all I can fit in alpha container so
an afak/ifak/salewa would be a good two in one for health and bleeds
and they heal way more than an ai2
do you have any non found in raid ones?
does it have the checkmark?
If yes, hand it in.
If not, use it, can't hand in not found in raid items to (most) quests.
yes I know
I dont have any in my stash but i will find sum
thanks for that tip i didnt know that part
You can also use Salewas FIR to heal after raids but keep them on 1 dura so you can hand in to Therapist
Do not take the FIR salewas into raids otherwise they lose the status
Enough to do. 180 but it’s really depends on wha you like
thanks , i was using .35 for both but now trying .26 .27 idk i feel like slower is the move
Slower is more accurate
Wrong mag
what do you use
what mag do i want then?
I think I’m around .28 I can’t remember
dpi?
any hoes in here?
archangel mag
Can’t remember what it’s called right click on the Miami and click linked search
Mag
same and i use .36 in game
What keys
2 Resorts and a Dorm
Names tho
i was basically the same as you , just lowered to .26 today to experiment i hate not having a perfect sens
Might find a lower fov can help a lot
Any new players wanna group up?
I cannot find a solo scav map
328 will sell for a lot more on flea also but the loots spawns are worth it
all the queues are 10 mins +
for scav's mostly yes
Hey guys can anyone.. god i feel like a begger but is there a way to give someone some cash? im legit strapped got 4k left and thats it PMC runs i never make it to extract im learning bit by bit
You can’t give cash
darn wellp im screwed
Scav runs are how you make cash you don't just do PMC runs
So how long should I wait on the scav queue before givning up?
find something to do there are a lot of people Scaving
I usually get In about 10 mins
find a background thing to do
scav runs dont have enough time
scav's do have enough time
i been doing Scav Factory runs when i get a shotgun
10 min is not enough time 4 me
and walking out loaded
ill try
it's random
yeah he doesn't know that yet
i completed the extortionist but haven't got the friend from the west p1 task, is there a different task that unlocks it now?
If you want to guarantee profit, you can always enter the cycle of scavving and when your scav is on cooldown then offline-PMCing. Scavving can only make you money, you can't lose anything. Offline is great for learning maps and getting good at killing scavs and scav bosses and practicing loot runs. This cycle is great to simply build up lots of money while learning - which makes online PMCing far easier.
It was never behind extortionist, it used to be after Flashdrives, but now you just need to get Skier to LL2.
i didn't know offline PMC runs didn't lost stuff..
oh damn my spending on skier is 22k, sounds like fun lol thanks
Oh yea, it all just resets to before you went in. It's super great practice. Very good for getting core mechanics like hipfire down
too bad offline PMC doesn't give money
guys i fucked up and im left with 0 rub and 2 loadouts do i go full neckbeard camp stuff
Getting flash drives is giving me nightmares in my sleep
Scav
i cant get into scav game
In Tarkov, experience and game knowledge are way more valuable than just rubles
find somethingto do in the background
yeah im about to learn maps
Queue times are longer, try taking off the auto server select & selecting all servers with sub 100 ping, (my preference sub 80) and you should get quicker queue times
is streets scav the play ? whats the best scav map
i heard scavs can get into marked there
if your PC can handle streets
Streets is SUPER popular and so it takes forever to get in. Factory and Reserve are my favorite scav maps, as they're both small enough that you spawn less than 30 seconds from an extract so if your scav spawns with a good kit you can just run out. Reserve has more going on than factory, but is harder to learn
got a 3060 and im at 15 fps
Streets of Tarkov
map
that didn't fix it
just buggy
when they optimize it i'll try then
So the flash drive quest is a dead end now?
just got to skier LL2 and got friend from the west. thank you so much would've taken me forever to figure that out on my own
i have rb-ao and rb-psp1 keys should i go reserve and farm ?
I don't know that for sure
Im actually f'd myself my stash is full and i don't have space lol
and no clue what to get rid of
the PSP key is crazy good early on, but Reserve as a PMC is way harder than as a scav because of how tricky it is to extract
yea plus ive never played reserve,i know woods interchange customs thats it
There arent any reliable extracts until you get red rebel
Might join a VC and let someone look at my stash so i can make some space
Start learning it as a scav, it's a great scav map, and then you can PMC with some knowledge
All the other ones have comprimises
Do you have flea
Not yet im gonna wait to sell if i do
Yeah wait to sell dont vendor lol
yea ofc,sadly i cant even reset game profile since im at 0 rub and i kinda fcked myself
aw rip
only got 2 loadouts just gonna do scavs at CD
Bit of patience and you will rebuild
dude i was just running to hotspots like dorms 10 times in a row
an exit had a red name and tried going to it before getting killed, why was it red?
i just want to pvp but it costs me
You don't want to tackle flash drives, jaegers food quest and salewas again do you?
If it was a v-ex, it was already taken by someone else
ohh
Exfils no longer available, cars/trains
gotcha thanks!
stupid question but how can a round do less than its max damage to aplayer in no Armour (hits were right arm right arm then thorax)
336 fmj (98 damage before any drop off and it definitely wasnt far enough away to have drop off effect) as gave 4 hits 3 shots fired and only managed 170 damage? 3x98 beats that before even adding any fragmentation damage (assuming that is where the extra hit came from)
If the v-ex is green that means someone started the counter so you can kill people if you spot the timer and are early enough
oh and i then die to 2 hits from lps which has a lower damage output than 366 but it somehow scores 300+ hp damage?
Some body parts have a dmg reduction and some have an increase
Like arms are 0.7 i think and stomach is 1.5
why is beyond me but ahh well ty for the info another score for wtf tarkov
anyone know where broadcast pt 2 is or have key with blue tape on it for chem closet
https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/935947208073814106 the two guys in here matt and SheLuvKarma are talking about TKing and VPNing to avoid being banned.
Thats why some people refuse to use armour without stomach protection, because leg meta ammo can sometimes 3 tap to stomach
can't tag mods
makes sense given that x1.5 damage bs but arms drop damage makes no sense only thing that should effect that is armour.
or range
but ty again for the info
factory scav 10 min q sadge
what ammo i should sell from my ammobox?
i dont have PS
did they change chemical part 4/big customer to where now u get it for all of them no matter what?
and by get it i mean accept the task cause before I remember you just chose one to avoid the penalty
No that's the same. Check this video for a walkthrough:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qU9GuGJGrVA
Does anyone wanna help me do some quests? I am not a beginner, but its been a while since Ive done quests, and I just started playing after taking a year break.
i can't exit thorugh d-2 what do i do?
okay I guess im just stupid then cause i planned to just accept the task from therapist but i ended up getting all three so im gonna face penalties
Awwww. 😦
Spawned with these keys earlier, anyone know if they’re good?
I’m not talking about the labs obv
They’re for streets so I got no clue lol
Streets scary
people already told you
probably bet there for some later game quest
how come whenever im about to load in my game crashes
no
I got told just keep it but they didn’t know what for
kk
are train extracts bugged?
Can anyone help me out with operation aquarius - part 1?
is there an easy way to do stirrup because ive been struggling for hours just to get a pistol kill
because its so ass
are scavs working?
It's a deadend task, so just don't focus it until you have access to better pistols and ammo
Is it okay to use other empty VC rooms if DUO rooms are filled up?
What should I do If all I have left is 6k roubles ?
Is the secure folder for chemical part 1 bugged?
Go in nakey and stab people like an absolute gaming freak
learn a good money route on scav, or offline... that way you'll never go broke again, alternative is resetting your account but you won't learn anything
Scav runs on factory, it’s really easy to extract and normally you find a lot of dead bodies on the floor to loot. That’s what I do anyway
i found a defibrillator should i sell it for 141k or do i need it
I will try everything
I can't even get my shotguns and selewas don't listen to me 
at this point sell it
u only need them for like rly high level hideout stuff
ok
i want to learn lighthouse is there a specific route you take on scav that doesn't involve usec camp?
What are them tablets most People take at the start of a raid ?
ibuprofen, vaseline and goldenstar
they're the longest duration painkillers, which saves your life if you get shot in the leg
Does anyone know why scavs matching takes forever?
Way more people scavving than PMC'ing at any given moment, so there's always a queue time
ok so I should wait more than 6 min plus?
Mine are around 10 mins
damn
For a mosin infantry rifle what scope can I put on it? Im only level 5 so far
Pu scope
who sells that
says it isn't compatible tho, does it need a different rail?
Thank you for the helpful technical answer. Most posts here are complaints but nobody goes into the root-cause of why scav queues take longer than PMC. Do scav players have to basically look for a limited amount of in-progress matches and find an open slot there?
I have a visual problem on rocks/terrain:
I tried with different graphics quality combinations, all LOD and distances, DLSS on and off, etc.
GPU: 2070 super
CPU: Ryzen 7 5800x
Does anyone knows what is this about?
I tried different settings and all distances settings
probs trying to save u the .5 FPS
i think alot of newer players spend more time as a scav due to the lower risk higher reward.
rocks are most likely individual objects in tarkov it tries to save performancew when you are further away from them
anybit in paticular?
im like brand new bought 2 days into wipe just mindlessly running atm attempting to learn the maps
havent won a gun fight yet even against a bot though ive no idea how i tell the difference
why dose my game look like absolute ass? i followed a tutorial on yt and it looks 10x worse than what they got bruh
I'm trying to queue up for scav reserve runs* but the queues are like 10 minutes long (EU servers). What gives?
hey what am I missing for gunsmith part 2?
best thing to do is live in practice mode for the first cpl days.
run factory on horde mode to help with your gunplay. and then focus on one map like say woods to learn loot etc (can disable the bots in offline practice mode)
PMCs will have knee pads
Should my friend buy the game without an ssd he has kinda good pc other then the ssd thing
he should buy an SSD first tbh. You can get a sata SSD for the same price as standard edition
nvme for like same price as EOD
is there a weapon or weapons you would recommend for learning sks is very very bouncy and does practice use my ammo
practice mode will let you do any quests you have active (but wont save them upon exfill as progress/xp doesnt count in offline) then when your confident move to doing that quest in online mode
Any help fellas?
Ye ye i know its cheap and stuff but I am aking if he is not buying something for a game will it be playable
anything you take into practice gets kept like it wasnt used/lost to death
servers are just fucked. Known issue. ancedotally I notice scaving as a group was faster queue
Does anybody know if "Safe Corridor" is a dead end task here in the new update? Or are there task behind that task ^^
Unfortunately the concept of friendship is foreign to me
Glad to know that it's not something wrong on my side though, cheers
yeah scavs are scuffed for probably another 1-2 weeks
as for starting guns try shotguns with buckshot, smgs are good and easier to recoil control i find
Crap, I'm too bad a this game to earn money as a pmc lol
pp-19 ak-74
but in any case expect to loose everything you go into raid with that isnt in your secure container you will die alot then get a kill and die alot more etc on average
good choices as 5.45ps and pp got a buff this wipe i think
Wait alright - so scav is just unprofitable due to how long it takes to queue (Seriously though, what the hell?)
So how do I earn money now? Pistol runs?
out of interest is im exfilling and the timer is close to running out on a scav run can i sometimes not exfil on time i thought i had about 30 seconds left but it said mia
try interchange or shoreline everyone runs reserve for money runs hence the long queue times
Oh i thought it'd be "everyone runs reserve hence short queue times" lol
if the raid timer hits 0 before the exfil timer you go mia
Fair enough, any recommended money routes? Reserve worked like a charm so far.
well everyone scavs reserve to farm rouges alot of players will be questing on maps like customs, woods etc this early into wipe
Ah fair enough
High scav + low pmc = I could've finished an entire league match by now
i still havent found the meds for the very first quest
Gotcha'
shoreline along the coast edge to edge has a few stahes, or head to resort lots of meds/tool and weapons crates etc up there.
somtimes some dead pmc or live ones for a fight with
Stash runs it is - I avoid PMC's like the plague until I manage to rack up some money and stash space.
can somebody explain to me when you get a run through? Like if you kill 1 scav and loot 3 boxes on factory is that enough?
the shoreline wiki has a good stash map with ingame pics to help locate them
Roger that, thank you
headshot one scav and you have enough xp
basicaly dont just sprint through grab a quest item and leave try to kill a scav or fill your pockets/eat somthing
which attachment is better for this helmet
does anybody have a guide with regarding to what items I should sell when you first start a wipe?
slide armor is better because protection and i pity sure you can put on headset with that so... yeah
but there is better helmets tho
Is there a way to avoid this?
it does block some headsets
most likely not
So everyone has it?
yes i believe
i do kinda want to waste stuff
too much stuff clutters my stash at the end of the wipe
i dont really notice this kind of small thing because it doesnt affect the gameplay
just a minor visual issue it cant really ruin your runs
Hey guys, trying to get the gunsmith 1 quest, any idea what part to swap to improve the ergonomics? thanks
anyone have tarkone directors key or the key for aquarious
I'll send a guide on what u need wait
here
German Player, started playing today. Need someone to help me learn the game
Thanks, appreciate it
@digital swan would love to help you but sadly my tarkov account was somehow stolen today so i can not really
rip
it takes practice and patience to learn this pain of a game
if I loot the safe and jackets in office is it sufficient?
its big pain disguised as pain
yo i was just on streets of tarkov and all of my quest items were not there
can anyone help me
You can alternatively wait 8 minutes next to an extract (or make sure you are in a raid for 8 minutes) not to get a run through
what's the raid time in factory
would depend how many items you got but i have filled my pockets before and then crossed the map to exfill and been ok (can gain xp by leveling up skills also so easier early on not to get them)
lemme rephrase it, Spend 8 minutes in a raid and you'll get enough XP to not get a run through
I think its 8 minutes for all maps
Either 8 minutes in raid or get a kill or try to loot up well
looting doesnt give that much XP so yeah
this i didnt know, ty for teaching me something there
gg
best selewa spawns?
woods peninsula or whatever its named or crack house on customs
thought it was 8 but it is what it is
1 minute different isnt that much ngl
wtf am i meant to do about these scavs
Win
sort of hard when they insta headshot me through bushes
I pretty much plan on playing through it or playing another game.
Can anyone help open Tarcone and 206 for me real quick? Just been hard stuck can't find keys/food needed for trade :/
guys this m4 is for mission?
?
hmm the gunsmith something
i just got the game can someone join with me and do a raid show me the ropes?
no thats just a random raider gun
and parts of it not for the gunsmith?
the mag is
they changed gunsmith a lot though
part 4 isnt even an m4 anymore
keep it if you want to be safe
ok ty
that stock is good btw you should keep it and use it
i will keep the gun until the mission to see what i need to fix
Ik this gets asked alot but what am I missing?
Dura maybe
sheeeit
no laser
durability is fine
wait no
yeah I got a laser
I played 2 years ago, are 8.5mm buckshot still strong ? Should I craft some ?
flechette.
ammo varies, try using https://eft.monster/ for a guide (may not be 100% accurate as just wiped but is most recent)
its still the best 12 gauge leg ammo
no
some rounds have had adjustments
yep I had some buckwheat traded that in for a new one it was dura
glad you got it ! 🙂
It's not out ouf stock right now 😮 (mp 133)
not now, only first couple days as everyone buying them for tasks as 3 needed early
yeah Its gotta be good dura. Mine was 60.8 and it wouldent work so not sure.
I've always used new ones so don't have to worry bout doing it again 😄
Can someone remind me with ORB key I (NEED). Some are unlocked and some can be glitched. But there is definitely 1 key that is needed (some say you can access this room if a friend pushes you but I play EFT solo) thanks.
Can you deploy as a cultist?
anyone wants to adopt a noob for a while and teach some pvp tricks? We can go woods or something, EU
Good. I'm not seeing anything obvious on the internet that would support your claim though
is it worth to sell dogtags?
You'll need to keep some for quests. but generally yes you sell them. Unless you like some of the barter options
thanks
I think that is streets marked key- it prob wont be worth too much because you can dropdown into thr room. Def keep it tho so u can sell it ifniy is worth more on flea
ty
why can i only play online when using scav character but when using my pmc it only allows practice mode. ps i have edge of darkness version
My guess is it will be worth 100k or so - idk tho
Could be off by a lot
Check market
How do i get Co-op mode enabled. I have Edge of Darkness version, but only allows Co-op when playing a Scav character but not my PMC. If anyone could explain or shoot me a dm i would really appreciate that.
I have a headset ,should I still turn binaural audio off?
can i keep items that i find in practice mode?
No it’s not real someone will have it listed for 2 m on flea but it won’t sell hence why it says it’s worth 2 mil
No.. and anything you use in practice mode is reverted back too. Essentially anything that happens in practice mode is not real
Bsg recommends you use it
When I turned it off my Audio was horrific
im thinking about getting prepare for escape as a new player, should i reset (im broke)
Someone spent a bit on that
Resetting is not worth then you lose all your exp and stuff
Just take pistols and do runs prapor sells one for 8k
Someone else also sells double barrel for 8k
i wanted to get my peacekeeper $ spent up, so i started buying dollars, but the spent amount isn't budging. my friend did the same thing and each dollar he bought added to his spent total. what's going on?
whats the spawn chance on shturman i need him for hunting trip
is there a penalty for killing your teammate?
no but its bannable
well u can record it and make a ticket in this discord
and get them banned lul
if it's not perma i wont bother
to add to this, i just bought and sold back an mp5 to him, and the $ spent didnt change
At this point, it's alot better to sell to him over buying dollars
you cant play any of the special ais
do i have to buy magazines as well as ammo?
yeah
yep
how can i find an m4 mag?
i know that jump from the building into this room i think they will fix it
peacekeeper
what is this currency?
If you're unsure what to get for a gun. Right click and "linked search"
knowing that doesn't help, my problem isit seems like he is not working as intended for me
It'll show everything you can use with the base weapon
i did that but it asks for this currency
here
dollars
Dollars my man
you can trade rubles for dollars from peacekeeper
Anybody got tips on how to locate extracts easier?
can someone confirm this: peacekeeper $ spent should increase if i buy an mp5 and sell it back to him (yes or no)
yeah
same goes for every trader
it's literally not working for me
How can you tell if pier boat is open? Can't tell the difference
in what way
Can't tell unless you get there and try unfortunately
Fair enough
hello
if i dont extract do i lose all my gear also?
currently at $3.9k spent
- i buy the mp5k-n for $193 (still at $3.9k)
- i sell it to him for $100 (still at $3.9k)
so it doesn't seem to work
you do lose everything you brought in
except:
- Pouch
- Special equipment
you dont lose your container or the stuff inside, everything else is gone though
even if its insured?
def a bug, try restarting maybe
theres a quest in factory where i have to plant this case i had picked it up from customs and when i went to factory died its not in my inventory anymore do i need to go back to customs? or is it bug
if nobody else takes an insured item itll be sent back to you
yeah you need to go get it again
!wiki insurance
oh wow okay thank you
Insurance allows you to retrieve any items that have not been extracted from a raid, with a delay.
You can only insure gear items (like weapons and armors), containers (a Key tool, a Documents case or an Item case) and intel items (paper maps). Consumable items (Food, Meds or Ammo) cannot be insured. However, there are exceptions to the insurance system which should not be ignored.
Secure containers…
yes, you need to pick it up again
every time i do delivery from the past i just join a random 5 stack in lfg
makes it way easier
Some PMCs are nice enough to let you finish the task before wiping you
but a majority will just shoot you in the back of the head for the sake of no quest done
can someone explain how bp deopot works (prapor quest) when i place a marker at a fuel tank and die before i place all four of them will i get to keep my progress
if you die during the 30 second timer it wont count
if you die after it doesnt matter
oh i see thanks
@whole thistle yeah thx restarting helped, it seems the spent dollars updated to the correct amount now
shoot me?
he means like if you beg a random mid raid to not kill you
ohh okay
how often do wipes happen?
about every 6 months
thank u
should i save this for a my first streets run?
i have a good ass pc
Mines decent too but streets is fecking huge
3070ti so idk
Go scav it, don't underestimate
Take it to woods
not woods ew
Lol
i hate m4s on woods
Streets is massive
but are m4s good on streets idfk the map yet
i wana save it for customs kinda but i really wana bring my level 5 armor and shit to streets
just to be decked out first time
streets is hella playable at night i get 60-80 fps, and half that during the day time raids. it's pretty aesthetic at night fr
cus aint like 3 bosses there or some
Dont bring that heavy of gear on a map you dont even know tge exfils on. Bring it to customs
you can avoid them
use whatever you want
are the 3 special slots perment or will you lose them in raid
you dont lose them
until im 15
use them
they make repairing free for a really long time
what should i be focusing on?
shootout and search
easy to do in 1 raid
not teh shootout but yk
woods easy on wipe
i thought it was really rare?
flash drive and sanitary standards lead to a lot of quests
not that rare
where can i get those?
anyone wanna run some raids and scav runs with me? its been a long time since ive played
gas analyzers you can get a lot of on interchange from tech spawns, and flash drives from safes or the flash drive tent on woods
sorry for the questions i have like no damn space and idk much about all these purple items
just know they for quests
you can look up what they do and how much they're worth to traders vs flea
using the wiki and tarkov-market.com
where are the flash drives on woods?
are these any good?
2nd worst 338
and itll be a long time until you get a chance to use that ammo
yeah
k
I thought it was good because the light and heavy bleeds chances
and this one, is it good?
theres also a safe right here which can spawn them
yeah
bleed chances dont matter a whole lot
if you read a bullet description and it says its for hunting and target practice, its a very low penetration flesh damage bullet. which is trash
oh ok
itll only help you do more damage if you die and they have no meds lol
or check the wiki and see the numbers
makes sense
which is a lot better than some of the weird descriptions lol
the descriptions are alright when ur too lazy to check wiki. it literaklly says "pierces basic body armor, intermediate, or advanced body armors"
if it says armor piercing it's good?
yeah
it has the highest penetration of any 7.62x39
the damage is kinda low so it might 3 shot at distance
no way I'm using it for now then
are these good? I have 2, I read the description and they seem good
all the headphones are "good"
oh ok didn't know that
theres like a tierlist of headphones, mostly personal preference. but some are definitely better than others from hearing enemies standpoint
comtacs are the ol' faithful headset
GSSH is the one everyone hates
all headphones are better than using no headphones then
yeah. definitely
where is the place with the most amount of scavs in woods?
Brand new player here. Is there a good map to start on?
Woods/Customs
scav house, sawmill, and the antenna tower with the bunker
To get used to
Woods is the best since it kinda offers the best amount of money in loot early on
Then it probably goes reserve or smth
the village near car extract, the scav bunker area, scav house near outskirts, occasionally some at FOB
this is what i meant
Ok thanks
yeah the part next to bridge is good too
thanks again
what do people even loot on woods. the stashes i imagine are what makes it profitable?
Sawmill, Old Sawmill, Scav Village, FOB,
LOTS OF LOOT
Theres loads
anyone want to run woods>
around here :)
yeah that
Scav village is the safest one for profit
Sawmill is very good but its very risky
If your a scav then its fine
scav village? all it has is food lmao
I need to kill scavs so I wont go as scav
No? Ive found loads of barter items.
Wooden clocks, Bronze horses, Bitcoins, GP Coins
Like not just food yknow
God chains
gold*
Like you obviously just dont look properly
Under the beds and stuff is where most of the good valuable loot is
Same with sunken village
Has alot of treasure spawns
hey really new lvl 3 atm looking for someone to teach me the ropes a bit better and run with for a bit
what the fuck why do i keep spawnbing next to scavs
why i can't see the orange checkmark on the other mp?
because its not found in raid
Doesnt need to be
is reserves good for money farming? i got a scav box and went on a huge loss streak due to lag that ive mostly fixed so im dead broke
also what headphones have the least background/ambient noise?
yeah but for debut i dont think it shows up unless it is
Yeah I just wanted to say it
its gunsmith
its not showing up for gunsmith because you havent finished the build
thanks guys

are co op extraction points only co op players only?
you need a scav and pmc to use them
so you have to find a random person in raid and talk to them
im more curious on how you killed him...
That message was literal months ago
!wiki Trailer park portable cabin key
Trailer park portable cabin key (Cabin key) is a Key in Escape from Tarkov.
oh lol for some reason it just showed now. \
thought it was this wipe lmfao
youve done golden swag?
Yea
restart your game maybe
what does the "attachment cost" mean here?
if that doesnt work then cope
Well I know the answer to how I killed him
Reserve marked rooms found a ak103 with bp. Shoot head win then die
!wiki Pumping station back door key
Pumping station back door key (Pump Back) is a Key in Escape from Tarkov.
Dw about it
LMFAO. Bp in that stock ass ak. meta.
what's dw?
Its dont worry
probably cost of the attachments, in that case its very wrong lol
Very very wrong
yeah buy is it worth to trade the 7 knives for the ump?
Yes
yea
UMP is a good early meta gun atm
Is M700 polymer stock expensive on the flea market or can i sell it to a trader ?
oh wow ty
was this a player? playing as a scav?
i think its still possible but you have to be so perfect that its not worth trying
was it a player?
did he shoot at you
yes
then yeah
i've been running some solo factory just to work on gun mechanics, should i keep doing that until I feel confident?
why is this item red on the icon but not on the big pic? Is it worth anything?
sorry for asking so many questions but what is a decent gun to buy from the traders for looting/scav fighting in a affordable price (im lvl.10)
Factory is a good map for getting better at PVP imo
because its missing a piece, usually its only guns that show up red but some attachments do it
Cos its so enclosed
do you have a gas block on the ak
thats why
ohhh I'm stupid , ofc. thanks! I didn't think of it as a "red" piece because of the filter, I just thought it was literally red
you are trying to put the handguard on to nothing
you need the gas tube on first
thats the charging handle thing
?
Oh mb
i have it on tho
I need help please
yeah the recoil systems that are decoupled from screen centre mess me up so much
is it me or am i the only one that has to wait 20 mins to get in a game as a scav
No gas block probably
hi im new i have a lot of random stuff in my stash what should i do with it
best woods run
didn't even appear the healing screen :):)
how do I use my compass without having to do this?
This is how you use it.
oh ok
what does compass do
It's stuff you'll need to play.
the compass gives you directions like the North South West East directions
I'd suggest a few tuts on YT to get you going @fallen parcel
is this possible ?
There is usually one at that location.
so 1 guaranteed ?
No.
if the wiki says it may be possible
Possible =/= guaranteed.
I guess that's a 0-2 spawn
For the cease fire quest, is the klimov street always an extract? Scares me i cant put the flare in my Gamma
can i sell the forklift key? I'm probably not gonna hit 56 or do collector since I've only played for a week
finally 😭
its crazy rare
gg
ive never seen one there
is there a reason everyone camps jagers message on woods?
Because it's the internet.
Rats
youre probably just running into other people trying to get it
where can I find soap
nah he guys i keep running into are very kitted just sitting near the plane
is the cat figure good for anything or can I sell it?
Stashes, medical tents etc

my game is lagging even in factory solo, has there been a noticeable performance drop this update for most?
It's part of a barter for something.
i guess just assholes then, 4 raids died everytime seconds after grabbing the message
Not here no.
They are called griefers where I come from.
Take pleasure in the pain of other's lives.
how do i rotate an item in stash?
welp i guess ill just run scavs
Hold click and press R
anyone wanna run with 2 new players on woods?
Best way I've found is run at an inopportune time. Evening or very early morning.
oooo okay ima try that, i get lost easily but hopefully an easy spawn
thank you!
Hope it helps you.
why is the pompon hat so expensive?
can someone help me rly quick i can screenshare u for signal part1 it doesnt work im at dome and i cant place the jammer
R while dragging
it’s used for doc case barter
Post a pic of where you're trying to put it
well, I sold it
How is it that customs queue is so long as a PMC, at 10 minutes consitantly for me, and i am unable to get a Scav run on Customs?
doc case is worth , don’t sell next time
you’ll find plenty
Did you try the other ones? Or placing it higher up?
ok, I'll remmember that
I am even in queue right now for a scav run on customs and no luck
yes i did wait ill call u
sitting at a strong 9:50 in queue
are factory scav runs worth it?
yea
there are no pmcs left at the time lol
11 minutes in queue as scav on customs and still no match
fr?
try shoreline scav i get matches in 4-6 mins
I only barely understand like 1 little piece of custons
i dont know any other maps dawg
any tips for first wipe just started playing and i can hardly make it out of any raids without dying
is shoreline a big map? or a little more small?
get use to it, learn from your deaths
Are boss spawns in offline coop 100% spawn rate?
you simply have to play and more, i've been through that phase. I lost literally everything last wipe and now im doing pretty good
big map
how is this possible wth
use scav on cooldown
🙏
fuck
LF1 to run some woods with new to game
any other maps to try that are a bit easier to navigate besides factory and customs?
I might just try shoreline fuck it
might rope in some loot finally ive only lost some so far
shoreline gotta be hella easy to learn if u dont actually go inside the resort
as long as you got a map and use the resort as a landmark to know where u are
Ok cool thanks
should i run shoreline at 6 pm or 6am right now
im worried about it getting too dark
so i dont really wanna risk it but idk how quick it will get dark at 6pm
6 am
ok
Should I save weapon attachments to sell on the market at level 15?
whats the best spot to hit for some loot?
so many cheaters on woods
5 man and 1 guy killed us all with 1 mp5 mag lmao all top of head
what map should you start on
customs
customs
Lighthouse is incredibly easy to navigate
facts , has ai raiders & landmines tho
i love lh
Just stay away from that bit
suppressors and good scopes and sights are decent
really
so should I do shoreline or lighthouse
It's just a long line where one side is water and the other is mountains
how new to the game are you
me?
yeah
i have played 3 raids
shoreline
got the game yeserday
couldve played a lot more but servers were down
or extremely long queue times
and im trying to run scav a little more
lighthouse requires more knowledge/ experience imo cause of raiders & mines but use a map
ah
nice mag? found supressors and this. Avoided the chads shooting at me.
ur gonna learn the maps eventually so whichever one u feel like going on
i tried customs
customs def best map for new players
Make sure you use a map lol
Does zyrachiy spawn when you dont ahev the quest for lightkeeper
thats life
then die to a chad
Shoreline can be easy as a beginner
welp
you’re gonna die a lot
It won't be different anywhere else
learn the maps that your quests are on
5 minutes as a scav in queue for shoreline and am still waiting
are queues usually this bad
which will be customs first, then woods, then it splits off into a bunch
cuz god damn is it a big turn off to me
No but wipe was a week ago
I do not wanna wait upwards of 15 minutes for 1 fucking match just to die
which means?
servers are jammed packed
Everyone is queueing, it's overloaded a bit
oh
not sure how good the mag is. suppressor are always worth a decent amount. other parts of the weapons are usually worth nothing, except for really good foregrips and stocks
so in about 1 or 2 weeks it will be good?
probably
7 minutes in queue no luck
is it just me or after the store quest on interchange u didnt get the fuel tanker quest? i have only 1 quest and its for streets from ragman
depends on how many people decide to carry on playing
you’re gonna be waiting 15-20 for scav
what is a to-go weapon that i can buy from traders ?
you probably should scav shoreline not lighthouse, or youll be stuck on queue for 30 mins. unless u were meaning to go PMC raid
ppsh, kedr, sks if you have ps in your stash
thx
im doing a scav queue on Shoreline
Vpo 209
8 minutes and waiting
Should I just leave and do a PMC run with minimal loot and try and kill a Scav for a gun or 2?
also
what are the normal queue times for scavs a couple weeks or so after wipe?
Does zyrachiy spawn when you dont ahev the quest for lightkeeper
yes
In offline raids?
because if I gotta wait 20 minutes for the whole time as a scav I will most likely quit
I dont got time to wait for a match just to die
Scavs runs in general take long I get happy when I get a 7 min queue
i been waiting 10 minutes so far
My scavs are fine
you should just do pmc with low gear until the scav times are better its just because the wipe literally just happened
but if you’re already 10 in wait it out ig
then don’t scav again just pmc
Okay
are scav times around the same as PMC after servers die down?
or is it around 8-10 minutes
Normal queue times are dependant on what servers you play
Normally for me its around 2-3 mins
Each time
Yeah so normally 2-3 mins
yeah my scav timers were really quick before wipe
Okay cool
also, when I get into a match here eventually
will there be any PMCs, or will it be dependent on how far it is into the match
it’s in the launcher
ok cool
I don’t have flea market unlocked yet but how much does dorms 206 key go for?
all depends
ok
I have that too i think
it’s bugged , when you hit the button you wait & it just teleports open saw lvndmark do it
any places you guys reccomend to check for loot on shoreline while I wait?
anyone know what you need for friend from the west unlock? Ive done flash drives chemical part 4 the works and still dont have it lvl 18 ll2 with PK and Skier
It said like lvl 4 and 1.00
Is there a lfg chat for noobs in this discord or is this channel it
what is lfg
I think its scav karma 1.00 and charisma 4
how do i find someone experienced to walk me through ts?
i did see that too , idk what that’s about
Looking for group
Looking for group / players
ah
Sherpa program
16 minutes in queue and no dice
thanks ive been looking for that name in my memory lol
I played wiht an irl friend and the game seemed a little easier wiht someone watching your back
anywhere but resort if you’re just looting
not surprised
stick with it
Oh shit I think i got a match
it does get better
