pls what do i do 😭
Had to cut out the part where i was getting sniped at while looting
Well, first you don't jump in an ambulance like you're in apex legends
You put yourself in that situation lmao
I didnt know where else to go for cover
Just go behind the ambulance next time
Instead of inside it forcing you to crouch
You're pretty much dead at that point
Anyone knows next sales?

I would normally use my own heals since it counts towards levelling skills but i'm not sure if its bugged or not still.
are these quest keys e310 san e306 san and w222 san
So it just didn't let me put on Bodyarmor? Saying 'No space'?
if you have EOD, use the grizzly, if you dont, try using your own healing items
Are you wearing a rig that has armour on it?
Oh I didn't know that existed. Spawned as a Scav
we've all been there 🙂
That would explain it then, thanks

But 306 is a quest key
Wiki is just the only way to know what's behind the lock
Offering help to beginners with completing task and raids. (EU only)
i have a 2080super and stay consistently up to date on latest best pc settings and yet i still cant play
This game isn't GPU intensive at all. It's it's extremely ram & cpu heavy
the game is, definitely playable off of 16gb. i follow a whole set of videos and yet no change. i do hope 32gb will make a fair amount of change
What do you mean you can't play?
Does stuff in your secure container not count as found in raid?
If you die it does not count.
it counts if you live.
insanely poor loading times, 10min+ usually. can only play a small amount of maps
Ahhh
Does anyone else have issues connecting to NE servers. Since the wipe im having 20 plus min waits
What CPU do you have?
Ive heard tarkov is a cpu game, tweak your nvidia settings to put more load onto your gpu
Ya and risk frying your card lol. So not worth it
Frying your card???
Lol
Its not gonna fry it any more than normally using your card?
i7
was this a joke
Never heard of this 🤔
Did that once years ago and ot fried my card so no
It happens
Whatever u say champ
Puttting the load on your card literally just takes load off your cpu and makes it work less hard, and makes your gpu work to power the game
Did you overclock too much
What do you think gpu intensive games do, blow up your pc?
ASlso my sherpa friends pls where do i finds construction measuring tape
I need security in my hideout
Can anyone here give recommendations on what to sell on the flea? Because I'm trying to keep items for hideout/quests but im running out of money
Does anyone have west wing 306 to resort? We can pay you of some sort if u want
i can help you with that - wanted 2 go there now anyways
nice thanks! are you on eu or na?
i think both 😄
Because nobody but you knows where you're at in terms of quests or hideout, or what barters/crafts you're trying to save for, you have to check things yourself. It's otherwise impossible to know, without significant experience or asking other people every time, what you'll need anytime soon, or what sells for substantial money to other players.
Check everything using https://tarkov-market.com/ and the info it provides for quest/hideout/barter/crafting requirements and for flea prices. Then you can decide what things you'll need soon enough to hold onto., and which items sell for enough to get rid of
what is ur ign so i can add u :FD
Im on NA can someone help me get jaeger I am level 3 and just trying to get quests done I don't run pmc solo cuz idk game good enough let alone woods lol
is this jacket pay to lose?
is sv 98 a good gun? got it off scav
All guns are generally good, it's just the ammo you use,etc
How could I make this better, on a budget?
its an adar, just added a forgrip recoil lower than picture
Where do I get the measuring tape for the security in hideout
not sure if its on there
toolboxes
Where’s the best place for toolboxes
your pistol grip could be better as well
where is the best place to find the elm
elm?
Extremely Large Muscles
reserve
what scope is that
i think its prism 2.5x
yes it is
its what i had in my stash
cuz im a brokie
but gaw damn just got armor repair kit on factory as a scav
how long does it take after claiming for twitch drops to show up in prapor
like 2 mins tops
ah okay
where can i find Salewa because im level 8 and i still got this quest lol
woods military health camp
what’s a cheap ass dmr
I find like 3 a raid on streets
You can craft them, or find them in the big meds spawns. Military camp, USEC camp on woods. Crackhouse and fortress on customs
RFB GOD TIER
RFB CAN ONE TAP BODY ITS INSANE
?????
No DMR will be cheaper than that
that’s the cheapest dmr ur gonna get other than adar
unless ur a 556 dweller u might wanna start making money
50k too expensive???
I’m broke broke
Then no DMR for you - 1 scav run buys at least 2-3 RFB's
my brother in christ go scav and a little less pmc
stash runs : 
There is no 7.62x51 ammo that realistically will one tap an armored thorax.
It could 1 tap an unarmored chest
yeah
Anyone got any tips on how make survive more and actually gain something cause im running in a constant circle. I gain money and then i lose money. And i all the time die and its getting some what of painful..
ps12b is nasty nasty
learn the maps and run ratty stash runs
like 60% of the time u wont even see a pmc on stash runs
average escape from tarkov experience
I'm pretty sure that's the intended Tarkov game loop tbh
However, here's some tips that helped me:
- If you want to guarantee profit, you can always enter the cycle of scavving and offline-PMCing while your scav is on cooldown. Scavving can only make you money, you can't lose anything. Offline is great for learning maps, cache runs, and getting good at killing scavs and scav bosses. This cycle is great to simply build up lots of money while learning - which makes online PMCing far easier.
-Hipfire is exceptional, using a flashlight and hipfiring is a hugely important mechanic to start practicing. Get a good feel for it in offline mode and you'll thank yourself later.
-Stop running everywhere - sprinting is very loud and gives you away, it provides a lot of opportunity to ambush you. Whenever you're in high-traffic areas, be very disciplined about when you sprint. Whenever I get feedback about my advice, people say that sprinting less and hipfiring more made the biggest difference in their performance.
-Have a goal in mind every raid, plan a route and try to stick roughly to it. If you notice a route failing 3 times in a row, change your route. This makes it easier to keep oriented and focused in-raid
-Pick your fights, don't be afraid to retreat - it often gives you a better chance to hit back later.
-Only right hand peak if you have a choice. It exposes far less of you than peeking left.
-Ammo is more important than guns, but you need to know how to use what ammo you have. High damage vs High penetration is a critical difference - use an ammo chart.
-Positioning is everything. In combat, frequently reposition, this is just one of the reasons map knowledge is critical and should be built and practiced ASAP.
-Learn from every death, there's almost always a lesson, and if you can learn that lesson the death is a lot less frustrating.
-Most importantly, have fun with it - don't be afraid to take a break if it's frustrating you too much.
Good evening guys I have a serious problem with the tarkov launcher I can not in any way to install the game can anyone help me? I select the correct directory, I ran the launcher as administrator but when I press install it does a mini load and nothing happens
this a good key??
hi shep have a nice evening shep 
Look it up at the wiki and see what’s in the room
You can always check the wiki - but there's a safe behind that door, very good
its in customs? or am i wrong
Dorms is in customs yes
okok
How long do you think someone should play offline mode? I’m new and I’ve played offline customs and I can navigate and get out basically every time as long as it’s old/ new gas station and whatever zb doesn’t require the key
Until it becomes a bit boring. That's a good sign you're ready to take it up a notch
hello funny green man

Hey guys, quick (ish) question; ok so there are A LOT of items in Takov, and I understand some need to be found in raid for quests ect. but your stash is only so big and fills up crazy fast, so until you unlock flea, what do you do with all the stuff you find in SCAV raids ect? I mean sure ill hang on to the stuff that I need later on FIR but what about everything else? Just sell knowing youre taking a massive loss from traders rather than flea?
Yes. You sell enough at a loss to buy a lucky scav box/boxes so you can hold as much as possible until you hit level 15
Use https://tarkov-market.com/ and the info it provides for quest/hideout/barter/crafting requirements and for flea prices. Then you can decide what things you'll need soon enough, and which items sell for enough, to hold onto.
For example, if you were checking 'Bolts' you would type it in and see this screen. You could then decide if any of those quests or hideout upgrades are close enough to save for, or if the extra money you'd get on the flea would make it worthwhile to hold onto until you hit level 15.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1011787235823210607/1020552361644675093/unknown.png
early wipe i always buy a junkbox whenver i have the money, then fill up my stash. by the time i get level 15 i make back a few mil worth, you can sell some barter items for better than flea prices. bolts, nuts, toolsets, screwdrivers, and elite pliers are some high end items early on for barters, tasks, hideout
bolts still jump up to 50k even today, toolsets around 80-100k
what injectors should i bring in case. normally i bring morphine for pain, adrenaline for quick health and propital for long term healing. any others?
etg mule meldonin zagustin
ok awesome thanks! would you recommend finding people to play with on discord ect or is solo a better way to tackle this game..
MULE in case you get crazy loot, ZAG or AHF1 if you have loads of bleeds, SJ6 is nice if you have to run, ETG is a lifesaver
no i can't find emelya rye croutons but i can find two XTG-12 antidote injectors
thank you game
what does etg do again?
super propital
nice
Solo is brutal, but you learn more. I significantly prefer groups, and think learning the basics in a group makes going off solo way less daunting
But it's preference
which task do you need now to unlock 762 BP?
It's still grenadier
Whats the thing that holds keys and money?
Where would a level 7 blind player get one
it says 9x39 BP
whats a good gun for woods because i got a quest for prapor to kill 15 scavs or can i run the ppsh
It's the unknown reward, not the box
One would not - soonest is a barter at Therapist ll2
Both are unlocked for grenadier
For when I get there
okay thx
whats a good gun for woods because i got a quest for prapor to kill 15 scavs or can i run the ppsh
SKS
ps ammo right?
ok right on thanks for the tips. one last thing, I played last in 2020 summer, and then a little bit at the very end of the wipe here a month ago, Ive always been used to running an SKS with PS ammo as my start setup. Ive read they nerfed the PS ammo a bit now.. what would you recommend for a early wipe loadout for broke
personal setup is a monster on reserve
and when i get better armor i use it
They didn't nerf it, they just restricted early access to it. Scavs very often spawn with PS, and so if you get a bit you can still run SKS. Until then, SMG's have been pretty potent, with the KEDR and PPSH shining. 590 from Jaeger is a decent shotgun. Mosin is a classic.
They moved ps to prapor 2
VPO from skier is common
Try replacing that dusty cheese with a salewa
For heavy bleed
Is there a way to check how much damage you did to someone because I wanna know how much rounds of M80 some random fucking timmy on factory took from me and survived?
I still got a one hit headshot with HP rounds on sks so its still viable
i can t find salewa rn im going to woods medical camp to find some
In the death screen, with all the other stats it'll say damage dealt to body/armor
Try looking for emergency water rations they're a 1:1 trade for salewa
also why are load times like 5 minutes now?
ump, kedr, aks74un, mosin
They used to take not more than 2 at bad times like 1 am.
im sory guys im broke broke, i gotta become a rat
ye ok
best thing
Welcome to Tarkov.
You need them found in raid, bartering won't do anything for you
yea i know
i mean i still i can sue them for healing
you can craft the salewas
You can always go scav interchange and leave with 200k easily
yea i know but i can t find any medical shit only injectors
my game doesnt download
its weird
its been at 0 Mo for 5-10m
any1 knows how 2 fix ?
We arent tech support but -
Make sure there isnt an admin window prompt in the background,
Make sure you have hard drive space
try launching as an administrator
Restart your PC
ok thanks
or try to change the donwload folder that worked for me
does a mods box exists ?
weapon case
okk
guys, what is a gmcount?
i lost my silenced ak to scav from a bush
landing a slug between my eyes
its like they have a delayed spinbot or something
Scavs are cracked it’s a 50:50
welcome to tarkov
Also does anyone have idea on how to fix this freezing issues I get ever so often? It just slowly slows down then freezes entirely then comes back fine?
Guys I just bought the game, and i got error 213 and locked for 7 hours any idea?
Is anyone here able to edit the Tarkov fandom wiki pages? I had a quest item spawn in a spot not shown on the wiki, I've got screenshots but I'm not proficient enough in HTML to actually add it to the wiki page. Message me if you can help with this please!
it works
So barter doesn't increase flea rep, yeah?
why didn't i receive gunsmith part 6 after completing the 5th one im level 21
what settings should i change if my cpu is shitting it self in tarkov? my gpu is enough but the 3400g is dogshit
Im not too beginner but this is my second wipe and i need help with medical records
can somebody please help me? my weapon presets won't save
i've tried at least 5 times and everytime i try to pull it back up, it's gone
this didn't happen in any of the other wipes i played
Hey everyone, I have 10k hours in Tarkov and I do Coaching if anyone is interested reach out ...
Do you guys think night time is a bit safer for doing tasks?
yes except for shoreline
depends
yes
nobody else is having issues with weapon presets not saving????????
am i the only one?
Just done one on shoreline at night time right now haha
Had to mark the ambulance at the resort
restart game it was bugged out for me yesterday
game is so scuffed this wipe
i've saved it on different occasions including yday
and i also restart my game every 3 raids or so
and it's still not saved
yeah i dont know what else to tell you its just bugged
Is there like a scav junk box but for weapon attachments? If there is how do u get it
no
lame as hell they take up so much space bro
I just killed a scav with a fucking Gzhel on
Is there a sherpa to teach me and my friend streets? we are experienced just no idea about streets
Yes
Correct
It's called a weapons case
whats wrong with my night vision
Nothing. Welcome to tarkov
Your sharpness might be too high though
Hi what does the car aid kit do ? Sometimes when i use it, it takes PK, and sometimes bandages i think, like what is inside really ?
Thats just animations. You can find what it does here:
https://thetarkovhandbook.com/Medicine.html
thank you !
It just restores HP and fixes bloodloss really
It's just the animation
the description is still a bit confusing, so each use will fix light blood loss (or heavy also?). And how many hp does each use give back (i assume to the most damaged part?)
what is the set of files master for?
Is it just me, or is the no Salewa's ANYWHERE
Plenty!
Where
crack house on customs or army camp on woods
Everyone must be getting there before me
So if u have light bleeding it takes x hp from ur healing item and if its heavy bleeding itd take x from ur healing item, like for salewas itll take 45 to fix a light bleed and 175 to fix a heavy bleed
You cant ever find them when you need them.
And yeah if u just regularlt use it it repairs the most damaged part, but u can drag to a part and itll heal that specific part
Once Im done with that quest Ill find them everywhere
tends to be like that
Yep
i feel like i never see airdrops anymore
Its probablt because u dont
Theres no plane or smoke, just a box droppingnin the sky lmao
what do you mean
My only experience with a airdrop is that there was no plane or smoke with the box, it was just a box dropping slowly from the sky
Lol
ive seen the plane one time, but didnt see it drop anything
@sage lotus It's been done.
o.o what
LMAO
It's a thermal but is it usable?
It's pretty bad.
Anyone know when the christmas tree goes awayy?
need somebody to look at my inventory and help me sell stuff im lvl 13
i can’t get a scav game, it’s been 15 mins and i restarted my game 3 times
first time playing this wipe i’m level 2
Anyone know when the christmas tree goes awayy?
any ideas?
scav times are fucked right now cause everyone is trying to scav...there are more scav queues then pmcs
so it takes forever right now
Here's a clip of me running around like a headless chicken on streets because I didn't know what to do when caught in the open after my teammate died and I got shot. I couldn't even see the guy (so first of all I needed a better flashlight like the x400 there). I could have tried to push, I think he had an SKS and was behind one of those two cars.. especially when he reloaded. Or went to cover sooner. Any constructive advice for next time? https://outplayed.tv/media/xgMwLz
Not to mention that I accidentally hit the reload button by accident, and got cock-blocked by a door

My game just crashed after blacking out from exfil, is it gonna count like a death?
usually doesnt
Hope not, just finished 2 quests on that raid
it always does for me
Does anyone have the tarcone directors key?
For what is this used for
is the fee like a mill for it XD
you need 2 for a task
my dream
2,4
jeez
i know but i have been to labs like 2 times throughout my wipes
up to you
shall i keep my santa bag, you can sell it to the flee right?
does anyone know how to switch to shoot the underbarrel grenade launcher?
Did they just changed the barter items for UMP/MP5 for Peacekeeper?
It should be 7 Grey handles for UMP, 8 Browns for MP5.
does anyone know the name of a program you can use to record gameplay at certain points like automatically record when you kill/die? I saw it ages ago and cant remember the name sorry
Outplayed
thank you!
np
i see people bind their meds to numbers? when i drag my saleiva to any numberi t doesnt work?
it has to be in your rig or pockets
ohho kay
it needs to be in your pockets/rig, cant be in your backpack or sec container
thanks
you can't sell it on flea
run it, use it for packratting stash or vendor it
when you need to survive and extract to finish a quest, does it count if you get a runthrough?
thanks
Someone told me if you solo queue them it takes ages, but if you group up it's wayyyyy faster & it's been true in my own experience too.
it's too obvious to play with
so i just tried to use the bridge V exfill and had the cash but it didnt work what did i do wrong
you stick out too much
at night it's fine
it's now 4 scav knifes and 1 bayonet for either of them
ER bayonet
Great, i have to find prapor's convoy, murder scavs using ironsights on the mosin and without armour
I could kill 3 birds with one stone
Oh.... that's...
I don't know where to get the bayonets lol
People might be selling some to fence
Best way to get 11k$ spent at peacekeeper?
buy m9s and sell them back to him
Wheres the best place to aim the flecheet to?
The pistol?
yeah
Thx
you lose a tiny amount of dollors buy kinda stays even
If i dont have enough $ should i exchange and keep buying?
nah the exchange rate is worth it i think
I mean rouble to usd
Cuz i dont have enough dollars to buy and sell enough m9s
Then with the usd i bough i can get more m9s
how do i make an adar very very cheap
you buy and Adar, and x amount of magazines. Load them with ammo. Then, good luck!
alright, I understand.
How do i get more storage, i have full stash and backpacks
in the stash
buy a makarov
Here's a little trick.
@low arch Buy an Adar, sell all the non-vital parts, then sell the magazine, and buy a 10 round magazine.
You can get a scav ADAR, bad level.
Bad durability.
Go to Skier.
Buy a ADAR receiver.
Transfer the parts.
Full loaded ADAR, congratulations.
i cant afford an actual adar
Always take an ADAR if you find one as a scav.
ah, alright. have you sold everything you have?
do you need to survive the raid after marking vehicles for them to count?
best buckshot ll1?
I'm pretty sure all of those have the "Survive and extract" as last task. But it doesn't have to be in the same raid.
thanks
Then you'd have to do what @tall thicket suggested and go find an Adar as a scav. There's no cheaper solution but to find it or kill for it.
@cold night try to vendor items untill you can afford a junkbox keep note of found in raid items you should not sell that you need for quests or hideout
ive got 3 first aid kits and the first part for therapist is done but i cant hand them in why ?
why not? what happens if you go to therapist to hand them in?
Does it not give you the button to turn them in?
oh i just realised i cant do it from the character sceen tasks and can only do it from the trader tab my bad bro
no worries
does any one have sanitar key and can open the door for me
they usually yell at you so thats one way you can tell that its a scav and they have clothing not similar to pmc's
look up extracts on the tarkov wiki
yea
np
you can see caches and spawn so its really good
ballin are you new aswell?
Experience and under clothing maybe, even EXperinced players have Friendly fire accidents.
That's not at all what I asked though, is it.
I think its Jager 3?
someone in general just said it's Shooter Born in Heaven, which makes sense. Thanks though.
should i turn SMT on or off for tarkov? pls only answer if you really know it
Not sure if this is the right channel but I have just bought the game and it seems to hanging on matching for about two minutes is this normal ?
Also is the game playable on a amd fx 8350
You have to get to level 30 and do an annoying task to buy it from traders
do i have to go in a raid as a pmc to do my very first tasks?
For the scav kills and Jaeger note you have to be on pmc, but for shotguns and medkits you can get them as scav
thank you
where should i go for scavs and medkits
To kill scavs you can go anywhere
medkits?
For the salewas woods has a med camp and customs has crackhouse
Offering my help to new players with completing task and whatnot. (EU only)
Can anyone help out with basic game knowledge and shi in a LFG call or whatever? us
What’s a good beginner setup?
fr i just bought EOD and dont know what to use
you have jaeger?
I completed signal part - 1 and it gave me the "subtask completed" notfs in-game but when i extracted it shows that I didn't do anything
Only level 6
oh
this is not my first wipe, i'm 100% sure i completed it IG
when you have to get pmc kills, will it count if you teamkill someone in your group?
I think so lol
Totally not going to boost lol
Nope
I think it’s just immoral
thanks
if you have it, the pp-19 is pretty good in the beginning, at least in my experience it was
I just don’t understand how fucking everyone is so good at this game
Like don’t most of y’all got jobs?
pp-19 has no recoil its ammo just isnt great
what do you mean by good
It's not that they're good it's just that you're bad lol
im shit and it just takes time
And I dont mean that in an offensive way
Oh I’m aware I’m bad, but there’s gotta be other bad players out there. Surely I can’t be the only trash player lol
yeah im bad bro i dont even know what guns to use and i spent 140 on the game 💀
im trash too lol, im only lvl 12
use the coolest looking one
I’m still on 10 round VPOs and everyone else seems to have fully auto guns now with 30rnd mags
see my problem with this game is im too scared to take my shit into raid cause i die each time cause im good like dat
We are all bad. But as you learn the maps, spawns and how guns work you start making better decisions.
Still shitty, but better. You'll get there.
you start with auto guns
how far in the water treatment can you get as usec if you havent shot rogues? [not beginner]
ive heard reserve is a good place to find Awls for hideout, where should i look for them?
box
tech crates
ty
where to get bolts and nuts
Tool area's, what map you playing?
foctory
Tool boxes under ground, the tower first floor.
Also dont look for them in factory, lol....
where to look 4
Innerchange.
Customs
which easier
looking for asistance with jager unlock quest on woods
need some help getting nuts and bolts
do hideout upgrades prioritize non-found in raid items first?
i think you get to pick which items from your stash to use for upgrades, but I might be wrong
what should i carry in my ass and what meds is most recomended to bring in raid for beginner?
how big is your secure container?
the eod one
cms/surv 12, all kinds of meds and ammo
you can fit half the map in your ass so it doesnt really matter
i normally keep cms, goldenstar painkiller and au splints in my ass, then backup ammo plus keys/space for important loot i find in raid
eod shove every med in there with ammo and keys
is ammo so expensive or something i have to put it in there?
I put a grizzly in my ass
ammo to restock mags kinda yeah
And ammo
this is what i use
what leve are you zapwag
oh i j noticed eod gave me a grizzly so i should put that big boi in there yea?
CMS is critical in pouch
i have not played since day 2 i am level 9
you can but you could save it save money if you die in raid
no quiero jugar tarkov
That’s what I do
no me importa ven a jugar
I’ll have more healing in my pockets though and just use the grizzly for when I run out
Not early ammo but still good to have loose ammo
i just got on to make sure i didnt have insurance expiring
🙀
ive played for like 3 days im like level 10
Wish insurance lasted longer
The better bullets usally 1k per round
i noob like u
I hate doing the same quests every wipe
im busy watching 8 year old game theories and thinking about dead by daylight
these are the guns i got do i just bring one of these boys into raid or do i get a cheaper gun since i most likely will die
you hate me
just admit it
mdr is decent
😢
im sorry bestie
those are all really cheap fart guns except the mdr
About to do my first Streets. I have a bunch of keys though. Any good or high loot keys that I should consider bringing?
if you havent played at all, maybe do a scav run or some runs with rubbish gear so you learn, but the only expensive ish gun is the mdr
anyone else having issues with sending invites?
its taking forever for invites to come through
havent had that problem but i mostly play alone
me2
it works but its very slow
did they remove the low profile ar15 gas blocks from level 1 traders? dont see anything with linked search
you gotta wait for the invite to come through then wait for the person to be in your lobby
and then wait after you ready for the game to start loading for the other person
i invite a friend, he doesn't get the invite, i diband a group and he gets a invite. same when waiting for few minutes
i think you need to complete gunsmith part 1
invite him once and wait
then when he accepts wait again
gotcha tyty

does anyone have a link to a good guide on what attachments I should keep or how to modify weapons... I don't find the fandom wiki super helpful in trying to figure out how to modify
anyone from EU able to help me get the extortionist mission done? it's on the customs map. I keep dying to random scav onetaps or running into players
what are you confused about with modding?
Essentially what parts go where... I'm wanting to put some type of sight on my mp5 but I don't really know what I need to add so that I can add a sight (unless this is the only thing I can add -- HK MP5SD 9x19 upper receiver Peacekeeper LL2) <- that's what it shows on the wiki but I'm not lvl 2 yet; still fairly new with only 25hrs
That said, it's pretty much most of the attachments I'm confused about haha
when you linked search a gun itself it only shows things that attach to the base piece of the gun
youd have to linked search the upper to find a sight mount
i dont think thats intentional but its what you have to do lol
Ahhh, okay, so that's why I only see like 3 things to add. I've always just linked search the whole weapon
it gets a lot easier to understand when you get workbench and can use edit preset
awesome, thank you : )
its just a big screen that shows you all the slots on the gun and what you can put in them
as for what attachments to keep you just kinda need to learn that over time
and it changes every wipe
I have that sweet sweet gear fear of selling something that might be rare and hard to find lol
My inventory looks disgusting !
the only really rare and expensive attachments are scopes and suppressors
you can sell almost everything else
ofc theres some random grips and stuff but they're a small minority
That's helpful, thanks
hello, i try to invite my friend and he never get the invite, or its like bad invite 622 something, whats happening
servers decided to explode, give it some time lol
anyone having problems inviting friends?
Its because there is 60000000 people in the ques rn
that's a long queue
Is it me or a lot of scav players are killing a lot of scav players left and right?
Whats going on guys, been having this issue as of late where whenever I first get into a raid whether it be a scav or pmc my game freaks out to the point it freezes and lags like a mutha. Eventually it evens out then periodically through out the raid itll happen in short bursts. Anyone have any ideas for fixes or why this is occurring?
20min matching to lighthouse?
should i do this quest?
Just died to a scav on reserve while I was looting a jacket, I had a toz and a dumb ass bag very easy to know I was a fellow scav
not necessary for progression, but kinda fun. really up to you if the rewards are worth it
hi guys, i have an issue with street of tarkov :/ i start a raid, everything load until "wait to the start of the raid" after that, the game freezes... i wait, the game loads the map at 2 fps and i'm disconnected with this message "connection to server failed" (i just bought the game, tried a game on every map, no problem)
stirrup doesnt lead to any new quests
kind of a waste of time if youre going for pure progression
xppp
in the first few days of wipes it happened to me a lot, now, not so much
PC issue, ram most likely. make a pagefile on the drive the game is on (pref on an m.2 or SSD). should help a bit at least.
man I just got shot by a scav player from behind, kinda weird
15 mins queee
Hello, can anyone with experience help me sorting my inventory? and sell stuff i dont need?
ok
HELLO???
Sorting the inventory seems to suck, I feel your pain.
I essentially just asked something like this as well... basically you can sell most things - I think you'll want to keep sights/scopes and good ammo and high lvl armour
can someone teach me how to play i just got the game
felt i almost wanna pay for a tutor to help me 💀
yes
lol
Ive got a quick question not new to the game per say ive played past wipes and shit but for some reason this wipe is destroying my computer and its using 11GB of ram and im having constant stutters but im running the game at 80 fps is their any chances someone could help me please
download more ram
might as well at this point i have 36gb so im not sure why its deleting it all pratically lol
back out and retray mate
i did twice first time was 15 min now 30
Yeah, most likely bugged.
There's a trick to getting faster queues with scav as follows:
- Take scav
- Pick map
- Invite literally anyone from the randoms looking for group.
- Ready up and start searching, the invited player DOESN'T need to accept, just get invited.
- You'll be like prioritized or some shit and get inside of scav raids much faster.
This got my Reserve scav timers from 15-20 minutes down to 1-3 minutes
can someone teach me how to play
hello, is here someone who could help me with this game. Im new and kinda lost.
@open cargo i would be hesitant too a lot of people accept invites pop you in the back of the head and take your stuff so
Oh legit never accept random invites to raids
probably because there is a whole influx of new people who dont know anything about scav rep
Even the bozos here on discord are most likely not to be trusted
looks like its going to take a while to find someone xd
yea ik
you also have players who dont care about scav rep and kill everything that moves so
use #sherpa-info to join SHERPAHUB they are dedicated players named sherpas who help newer players for free. submit a request based on your location, eg. NA REQUEST. Submit if your in NA>
sherpas arent taking request until the tenth of january
to be fair no one can teach you how to play. sherpas can guide you and explain things but other than the basics everything becomes a skill issue past that point
thats 4 days. usually takes like 10 days for them to respond so no loss.
anyone want to play, its my first wipe im level 7
I'm game. I played a little like 6 months ago and haven't played for a while
makes sense so they can leveled and get the AH open etc
r u eu?
wtf is an ah
US
yall whats early access semi decent 556 ammo
m855
shoot for the face
other than m855
nothing else early wipe lol
alr
ah unfortunate
also if you do cult pt 1 you can just buy 56a1
i play w me eu friends all the time. it isnt too bad. give it a try regardless
yea but might tke him a minute to get there
my internet is bad i cant do us servers
Auction house,flea market ETC sam shit different word
ah. no pun intended.
ok so u host, he joins.
aint no way
honestly early wipe i wouldnt run anything 556 unless you're fairly experienced with the game, would run a mosin,or hunter, or a leg meta shotgun
i go in fully kitted and my game is BLACK AAAA
they had to nerf you
close the game out and try and recconect?
yea doing that rn
hopefully you're not standing out in the middle of a field or in a high traffic area
my pc couldnt handle all the gear i brought
wat map??
shoreline
oof
pray for village spawn.
i mean maybe not.... if it night time.... cultists
anyone have Chekannaya 15 apartment key?
they always spawn, and most times you wont see em until its too late since they hide in bushes and will actively hunt you
planning on running adar
fun gun and i am pretty good
these scavs say otherwise though 😔
adars are ok, but with a mosin and map rounds you will punch through just about all armor in the game especially early wipe
LPS and SNB spawn like candy on the map and one can be bought off traders without the flea
i have some questions about this mission 1. do i get to keep my progres i mean if i die and already did one can i keep my progres
does it consume the tool kit?
you can do them one at a time
yes u need 2
i have two
oh can u do it with 1?
i would only take one in with you unless you can 5 stack factory
no you need 2, but i would do one at a time unless you can 5 stack factory
yea what i did is put 1 in my pouch and ran in basically naked or with pistol until i got it, then repeated
ye if i take one in and hide it in my ass and finish one but die will i keep my progres?
nice
i think
yeah its not a must be done in one raid mission
pretty sure i died both times when i did it
honestly though that questline isnt worth doing after a certain point
so is this plan fine? 1 I go in i fix one of the things using one tool kit then try doing the other one but die and go back and finish the quest
you can yeah
yea you just need to survive and extract at some point in the future
after u do em both
nice thanks for the help guys
Is it worth to buy armor class 3 helmets from prapor? I just started
honestly, helmets really only save you from scavs early game
most players will be running stuff that can punch through the helmet or face tap ya
high ricochet chance is the most important part imo, but ngl i havent worn a helmet this wipe lol
i just rather spend my money on headphones
bro no one is answering this question in any of the chats lol
what happened to the LL1 mechanic barter for ammunitions case? has it just been moved to a higher LL or what?
probably
k
i think to buy it is gunsmith 5 tho idk if thats same as last time
which trader do i focus tasks for? should i do one trader at a time for quests or just a mix of all of them
you want them all to go up in rep
just all
but there are certain choices
for certain quests that have to go to one trader vs another
there are some quests that lead to dead ends tho and some that open up more quests
Quests, both player-given and dynamically generated, are intended to be a large part of Escape from Tarkov.
Some require you to pick stuff up for certain traders, while others require you to kill other operators or mark vehicles and specific places.
Quests are the fastest way of gaining EXP. Completing one will often reward you with experience p...
for example the farming quests are only worth doing up to the point he wants graphics cards then they are not worth doing cause the quests dead end
besides that graphics cards are too rare
Until you get the intelligence center lvl 3
ah ok
also something like shootout picnic where you have to kill 15 scavs on woods, you shouldnt focus on just doing it cuz later on theres more quests like "kill scavs on woods with shotgun" or something similar and u can just do em both at once
Anywhere I can see what all the quests are in the game? also y'all know how many quests these traders have
Does anyone have tips for Gunsmith Part 5? I cannot get the Magpul MOE from Mechanic. He's been out of stock the entire day.
Best bet is to watch the reset timer and click when he resets or get lucky on loot on game
^
I have been 😦 Legit set a timer even to keep a watch on it lol
Honestly, I don't focus gunsmith until I get the flea
theres new quests this wipe so no one knows all of the quests but you can see them all on the wiki under quests https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Escape_from_Tarkov_Wiki
I have flea, it's not purchasable
is matchmaking with friends messed up?
no
dont think so
Well, buck guess you're gonna have to do a lot of reserve scav runs then
Think it'll drop in Reserve?
I've looked it from there a bunch in previous wipes
im just gonna wait until its on stock ngl
okay cool, thanks mate
And most people leave em cause they go in looking for big ticket items
id say 60% of this game is learning the maps and loot spawns
reserve is a good one to learn for weapon attachments
How to unlock gunsmith part 9?
by doing gunsmith 8 i think
hey, why do ppl sell items for more than a trader sells it for?
because some stuff is locked behind loyalty levels so its for peeps who dont have that LL unlocked
is there any point in making lights lvl2 in the hideout?
So, when I look at the item in the flea market and it shows me a trader deal, will the trader icon show the required loyalty or the oen I have?
It shows II but I am lvl II
and will i need countinously on generator to make the lvl 2 lights work?
Hey, i just started playing and when i click pmc and a map i want to play on it says attention practice mode doesnt save, does that mean if i dont press practice ill be playing with real people?
but will the lights be on when the generator is off?
okay thank you, that also means if i dont press practice i lose loot when i die right?
damn thats sad it would look cool if my hideout had lights but i dont have that much fuel
help i double tapped z to drop my backpack and now i casnt find it
its dissapeared
I have been trying to get this pocket watch all day
is there a chance my backpack couldve fallen thru the floor
kms
another thing, when i loot people and it say i have to examine items, do i always have to examine items even if i already examined them before
When on reserve Train exfil has +1.00 (rep) and 3 lvl .. if u exfil on a pmc for first time is that 3 levels?? tried on scav but got nada but iirc vehicle extracts were pmc and granted rep?
its so fuckign annoying
ive looked everywhere where i doubletapped z
yes ive looked below
do they roll far
like would they continure rolling on flat
FOUND IT
i checked the same spot like 7 times
pretty sure it was some kind of visual bug
I need help doing "search mission" on woods
whos the best trader to get level 2 for, Im trying to get better weapons quick
prapor 2 opens up some oportunities, like buying ps which makes 762x39 very good and buying 545 pp which makes all the ak 74s viable
can someone open 203 for me, it's for a quest
which one do you like more lol
Probably the top one, is there a website for this?
top one is mark 4
theres screenshots like that for every sight on their wiki pages
its under all the compatibility stuff
ohh ok cool
I got some stuff that’s good idk whether to wait and sell on flee or sell to trader
I got a sledge hammer, gpu and moonshine
this site shows flea vs trader difference https://tarkov-market.com/
i think the sledgehammer is flea banned since it says no market data and historical price
no since no one is selling
Escape from Tarkov - Ammo visualization, loot tiers, profit calculators, community driven API, and much more! Enjoy our best in class EFT toolkit.
I found this one to be more useful
Shows you trader prices too
tarkov market does that too
the thing that says "Not able to sell on flea" on that site is good for new people though
oh tarkov market does that now too i didnt know
Is the dorms 303 key any good?
!wiki dorm 303
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Dorm_room_303_key
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page dorm 303 for a direct link or !wiki search dorm 303 for a list of all hits.
Dorm room 303 key (Dorm 303) is a Key in Escape from Tarkov.
What does the red flare do and sell for
calls in an airdrop and It doesnt sell on the flea and the traders dont give a lot for it.
yo can someone cord with me and make sure my game optimized
where abouts was seaside vacation moved to?
is there any way i can keep this backpack without discarding half my guns
you can put backpacks inside other backpacks
theyre full of loot
goated bro
i was thinking that thy should add exactly this
but i didnt know it was a thing
🐐
Is the mk47 worth keeping or just selling, currently level 13 so I can't purchase modifications for it and its taking up space :/
Alright cheers Sean 👍
the little 9 squares is an extra like 20 slots that you can use to sort your invintory with extra space for a while
are lead slugs good for DB? or should i just use 7mm
slugs are meh unless youre using ap20
magnums or flechettes should be your go to. you can craft magnums at workbench 1
does anyone know where the dorm 118 key can be used and if its worth doing?
Does anyone know of a channel that posts full raids with commentary, but isn’t a landmark type player? I wanted to watch some people of a lower level to see how they play in the position I’m in
Since I’ve still got very basic stuff and not much mechanical know how, but most creators post videos of meta builds and mostly their good rounds
2lew posts good commentary, but hes not rly a landmark playr
Someone who I can learn lots from mostly
I don't know if he's done it in a while, but pestily's raid series specifically sounds like what you're asking for
Doesn’t look like there’s a recent one
yeah would still def be able to learn from it though
swampfox is rly good for learning, he puts discriptions of an items use when he consumes it/uses it
Since often times someone who does something naturally fails to explain what it is he’s doing in detail
they are full raids, he explains what he is doing and the series is him progressing on a fresh account
Since it’s just intuitive at that level
yeah he explains his positioning and stuff like that, not just dead silent playing
I thought he closed the site down
Sounds good
Which is better Eko or FMJ for the VPO?
Hey guys, what’s the best ammo for shotgun early wipe?
magnum buckshot
On another note, I’ve been running solos to work on gun mechanics and slowly getting better, but I’m still finding that I’ll just feel anxious to get into a match and just keep on doing this
can be crafted at lvl 1 workbench
Still don’t have that 😦
do you have a workbench?
Nah
try and prioritize that
Ok, but it’s the 7mm good?
nuts and bolts and you can buy the multi tool from mechanic
it's serviceable but does absolutely nothing against armor
Got it
magnum just does more DMG tho
did friend from the west pt 1 in just a few raids using magnum with the double barrel on factory
legit so fun to use
oh yeah and you also need the generator built to use the workbench if you don't have that yet
is this good?
the armor?
not really
you need 1 for a quest
unless youve done it already
I wonder what the game would play like without the flea market
@eager pulsar good catch
I’ve not gotten to the point where I can use it yet but it feels like when you do it just kind of makes it less survival-y?
i didnt enlarge the picture
nah, cause everyone 15+ can use it, so they have the same access as everyone else
👌 thanks
well you make a lot more selling on flea than traders, granted you still need to level traders
for money or quest i havent completed many yet
oh yeah dont get me wrong
i know im missing out on a lot of money
i just cant be bothered to see every item and if its worth more to trader or not
so i just sell to trader unless i know its costly (hoses etc.)
I use flea to sell stuff in bulk or if the item is way more valuable on flea to be worth the flea tax
But like once you get it people just buy the things they need, I think I might just play without it cause it takes that satisfaction out of finding it yourself
your gunna say that until u do the gunsmith tasks
But I suppose it does make it easier to sell stuff
Well I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it
this is a ridiculous notion... once it gets later in wipe, youre gonna get annihilated
For now I’m learning mechanics, spawns, strategies and so on
yes, good idea
oh to be new again
but def buy stuff from flea
Once I get it I’ll be able to see the impact it actually has and decide from there
youll definitely realize sooner or later that its pretty much needed
take our word for it
honestly
I do need to get over this constant anxiety I have while playing though, it’s stupid
I haven't been above like 600k since I unlocked flea because I'm just constantly spending on hideout and tasks the second I get roubles
It's not your gear, it's just your turn to use it
makes u less anxious, and (no offense/most likely) your going to end up dying regardless, so having less anxiety on it is good
^
But then when I get low on the gear I have, I don’t yet know how I’d get more to practise with
flea market....
lol
LMAO
scav runs too
this guy lol
sell stuff, you can also practice in offline raids. horde mode tag and curse
But I’m not at the point where I have that as I said
if u dont have the flea market yet
you will soon enough
your not going to have good gear regardless
i cant connect to any servers, lost all my loot as pmc cause it kicked me out and now i just got kicked as scav
scav, or buy a mosin or smth
ion kow whats wrong
Also one thing that happened last wipe I played is that I ended up hoarding so many random things that I need for the hideout that I hardly even got enough for the junk box. Is it worth putting the effort into progressing the hideout when you’re new?
it usually is regardless of if ur new or not
Or just sell most of it
the passive benefits are nice, aswell as some crafts
yes, bc you can make ammos, nades, etc.. that are hard to find in raid
and meds
What passive benefits are there?
a rule of thumb i go off of, is that i keep items that the current level, and the next level, needs
Scav runs on reserve is pretty good money look on YouTube for videos on it
there's a decent amount of barter items you can sell that you won't need for hideout until way later
that way your hoarding, but not keeping everything
I suppose that’s a good way to go about it
passive energy/water
uhh
mote knows more than me id assume but i know those are 2 things
i think the gym aventually will give strength training
i know intel center increases quest rewards
Does it give you buffs in raid?
gym gives you strength when you do the mini game correctly
reduced flea market fee costs
reduced scav timer is a big one if u dont want to use ur loot, but once again, dont get gear fear
Is that after you finish a raid when it builds up while afk or in raid?
not in raid
Anyone had trouble with chemical pt 1 folder now showing up in train car I collected it, died and when I go back to do it it’s not there
how do i not die? no matter day or night i get rekt
there are different spawn locations in that train car
checking the wiki would probably help you a ton, rather than relaying all this information in here...
so you know what to prioritize
Fair, I’ll go have a look
know hot spots and when/where to avoid fights
Play like a rat
running thru the woods and somebody kills me :/
We’ll given all this I’ll try and go Hail Mary mode and do some runs and see what happens
that just makes the game take even longer. going really slow for everything
use the bushes to ur advantage
you dont
patience is a big part of the game
anyone able to help me et jaeger
If you’re playing it like you play cod though you will get rekt especially if you’re new
i can next exfil when i do this quest
i am trying to do that but i die every time lol
THIS
I’ll probably lose more than I gain but at least then I’ll figure out how to recuperate that loss
you want to try it toether?
you wont gain anything, but theres been quite a few people using offline mode to help, it seems to work but
i already got mine friend
ive tried lfg thanks for the recomend
if u prefer more of getting into the action to learn, by all means you do you
heard thanks anyway
sorry about that, try the sherpa hub
sometimes lfg isnt that reliable
cant even link the sherpa hub lol
but if you keep sending stuff out you should get some dms
he's trying okay lol
I’ve found offline raids with high bot counts in factory to have really helped with learning how to use this game’s strange weapon mechanics
this^^^^^^^^
my personal suggestion, is when ur gun jams, bind both things to L so u can just spam L
huge help with that part of weapon maintaining
Beat my kill record today in fact which was nice. But it’s the macro game of knowing spawn routes, what loot to keep and where is safe and unsafe that I feel relent overwhelmed by
