do this

[dapper epoch]

Shot*

[orchid salmon]

It will only gain you gear and nothing else.

[bold kernel]

i enjoy it

[orchid salmon]

No experience, no quest progression, no xp.

[dapper epoch]

why

[bold kernel]

thats fine, ill never get kappa anyway

[open apex]

gear that you wont know how to use cause you sit on your butt

[bold kernel]

i just sell it

[dapper epoch]

For what

[bold kernel]

i just like camping

[dapper epoch]

What do you need money for

If you just sit and rat

[bold kernel]

i dont, the money going up brings me joy

[dapper epoch]

I dont even get the point of playing

[chrome trench]

so you're not playing tarkov, you like playing spread sheet and you think extract camping is the way to up the number, maybe try a different game idk

rimworld or something

[heavy barn]

what should I do with these? I see they are bartered well on flea

[dapper epoch]

play cookie clicker, way more consistent way to watch pretty numbers go up

[chrome trench]

hold on to them, you can barter them for barter only things on flea, mostly keys and such

[sage lotus]

buy any marked or tape key you want lol

[hardy fox]

why is my scav case locked but i have everything level 3 and intel 2

[rain wing]

is it worth hanging onto armor repair kits?

[undone flower]

Tape key is up for roubles now

[undone flower]

Yes

[sage lotus]

oh, finally

just as i hit the sanitar quests

[bold kernel]

its kinda fun when grown men know im camping and they start verbally abusing me

[chrome trench]

400k on the flea, and good to use, will save you about as much, and level up your repair skill

[dapper epoch]

Whos verbally abusing you lol

[rain wing]

aight

[chrome trench]

if they know you are camping, you are extract camping wrong

[bold kernel]

the people i extract camp on interchange

[dapper epoch]

this

[bold kernel]

im still new to the game

[heavy barn]

which server you playing on? we might duo sometime if you want

[dapper epoch]

So like are you one of those people who just kinda likes watching other people not have a good time

[bold kernel]

eu

[dapper epoch]

Is that how you get your enjoyment

[chrome trench]

try actually playing it then, extract camping is about the most boring thing you can do in this game

regardless of the impact on the game as a whole

[undone flower]

Extract camping is fun.

[heavy barn]

same, I have 2k hours and I still exit camp sometimes, rarely but with the right people I do it

[dapper epoch]

lol

[bold kernel]

i managed to get so much course work done though

[undone flower]

I have 7 wipes, still extract camping 💪

[heavy barn]

my man!

[dapper epoch]

smh

[rigid wind]

why do my bullets make no noise?

[undone flower]

Wdym?

[chrome trench]

how so?

[rigid wind]

idk when i shoot from below someone their bullets and my bullets make no noise

[keen musk]

I believe you deserve to hit by 14 mortar rounds, but I also respect the hustle

[open hedge]

Tarkov

[chrome trench]

sound is kinda busted right now, especially when verticality is factored in

[rigid wind]

i forgot makes sense

[chrome trench]

well its always been a little busted, but its about the worst its been (in a long time at least) currently

[rigid wind]

i thought they fixed it this patcdh

[chrome trench]

they made some changes to binaural, but having used it a few matches now, its still utterly fucked imo

[rigid wind]

oh lol

[chrome trench]

i was hearing people on my 4 as though they were on my like 8, neverminded that i couldn't tell verticality in the slightest

[open hedge]

You can just say left and right

[chrome trench]

aside from dealing with tremor effect, is there currently any reason to use morphine, when is the same cost?

[dreamy imp]

not surprised in the slightest lol, they never seem to get things fixed that fast

[open hedge]

No

[minor laurel]

which ones are worth saving and which ones are worth selling?

I speaking only in terms of tasks as I don't really like going dorms

[chrome trench]

ones with safes, but they are all worth nearly nothing, so id just sell them, if you need one again you can re buy for 10-15k

[rigid wind]

mr key kollektor

[open hedge]

1 resolution

[chrome trench]

a screenshot of a screenshot lol, i respect it

[open apex]

oh then idk

[chrome trench]

sxollas are the useful ones, but if you dont go dorms id just therapist all them and save the space

[open apex]

[dapper epoch]

Whats a good gun for interchange

[undone flower]

Every

[chrome trench]

depends, killa, scavs, pvp

outside, inside?

[open apex]

what are good spots to snipe(not sniper rock)

[dapper epoch]

Specifically to just survive in the mall

[open apex]

on lighthouse

[chrome trench]

can never go wrong with a ump

especially now

i like shotguns, m3/155 magnum or ftx

[dapper epoch]

Alright thank you

[open apex]

adar chad till level 38

thats the gamer way

[dapper epoch]

A bit tight on cash

Would either of these work?

[chrome trench]

sell the ash probably tbh, unless you can buy the ammo

[open apex]

shrimp and ash are useless without good ammo

[chrome trench]

sr2 is great

[open apex]

ps is the only thing semi ok people running p die to me

so sell sr

[open hedge]

You can’t buy the ammo

[dapper epoch]

Im lvl 20 if that helps

[chrome trench]

honestly when im broke i just yet out there with a double barrel and headphones

[open apex]

gota be prapor 4

[chrome trench]

works more often than it doesnt

[open apex]

to buy ps

[dapper epoch]

To be honest I just have a quest to survive there and kill 25 scavs. I wanna just hit ultra med and dip pretty much

[open apex]

thats pretty hard

in interchange

[chrome trench]

shotguns are the best for scavs right now imo, assuming you stay nearish them

magnum pretty consistently 1-2 taps up to about 30m

[dapper epoch]

Slugs or shells

[chrome trench]

or for more range slugs, ftx at ll2

i ran m3 and mangum to get my 25 kills, worked pretty well

[dapper epoch]

Alright ill give it a go

[chrome trench]

155 works the same if you dont have m3 unlocked

[open hedge]

Slugs are terrible

Don’t use them

[chrome trench]

against scavs they are fine

[brisk wharf]

Is there a way to fix high ping in game despite low ping on launcher thing? Before server changes I used to avoid Spain and Israel servers because despite saying 70 ping, they were minimum 110 for me. So since servers changed sometimes I am getting 110 ping which I believe it puts me those servers and I can only play on South Europe :/

[open hedge]

God forbid they have Untar armor on

Become bullet proof

[chrome trench]

idk i just click heads

[dapper epoch]

?

[chrome trench]

i put a 553 on and a cheap muzzle cause why not

[open apex]

magnum buck is the only way to go

[supple panther]

man

my teammates are something else

[chrome trench]

put at least the 7 mag on it

[supple panther]

"recoil sucks, it needs to get changed"

recoil changes

"omg recoil sucks, everyone is just laserbeaming me"

[dapper epoch]

Dude that's like 80% of people who play games

They bitch about everything

[supple panther]

so stupid man

bitched for 2 years

that PVP used to be better before the recoil changes

it gets changed to resemble previous recoil

[chrome trench]

@dapper epoch my goto scav killing weapon lately

[supple panther]

"omg its so bad it needs to get nerfed"

[rigid wind]

wtff binaurial is way worse now

[open apex]

SOAPBOX in #beginners-assistance

[chrome trench]

not the most money efficient, but i like it

[rigid wind]

i thought it would be better on but its legit better off

[open apex]

weight changes are goated movement feels awesome

[chrome trench]

before it did nothing basically, now it seems notably worse with it on

[rigid wind]

yeah 100%

guy was in front of me heard him like he was left below me

disgusting\

[open apex]

i doubt anyone can actually notice the recoil change only on some guns people just need to shut up

[open hedge]

Terrible take

[open apex]

ak 101 and scar are only notable and maybe mp7 it was a beam anyway

[dapper epoch]

And you said magnum buckshot would be best for this? Why so?

[chrome trench]

its not pre 12.12 recoil, but it is notably a lot less on a lot of guns, especially given the reduction in camera recoil, which is most of the perceived recoil

[bold kernel]

what is a sherps

[chrome trench]

36 flesh damage per pellet

[bold kernel]

sherpa

[chrome trench]

which basically means its kills flesh really good, and can one pellet head tap a player

[open apex]

fact is none of u people will ever be happy so why cry

[chrome trench]

the only buckshot that can do that

[dapper epoch]

Ah

[turbid oxide]

Anyone have the Keys Disease History?

[chrome trench]

you aim around the head of a scav, it will die (almost always) in 1-2 shots

sound is fubard (at least with binural on), but otherwise this might be the best the game has felt to play in a long time, yesterdays changes made a huge (imo positive) impact

[open apex]

same and the weight

now sound and desync and its the best game in the whole wide world pepehappy

[chrome trench]

and performance, but that's at least been improved

[frail comet]

whats better for mosin t46m or lps

[turbid oxide]

Anyone have the Keys Disease History?

[chrome trench]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics @frail comet hardly a difference

[turbid oxide]

Well I don't and need them opened if anyone has them.

.

[dapper epoch]

Does anyone have the pic for the glasses

[open hedge]

It’s in pins somewhere

I’m beginners chat

[lilac grail]

I need em too but im just gonna barter for them in a bit

[turbid oxide]

I added you

[chrome trench]

@turbid oxide I’d try lfg, look for people doing that map those keys are on (reserve if those are the ksm/spm keys) and ask if they have the keys, you’ll pretty quickly find someone with them

That’s what I do at least

[fresh vale]

what kind of mount do I need for this gun? I'd like to attach a lasersight to it. Can't find it in linked search

[chrome trench]

Edit preset will show you if you have it unlocked/identified

If you don’t link search the hand guard

[fresh vale]

damn I forgot about preset, thanks mate

[open hedge]

What level is your traders?

[fresh vale]

I need to use it more

[chrome trench]

Edit preset is your best friend for modifying

[bold kernel]

can someone help me rq

what do i keep and what do i sell

[open hedge]

You will not be able to use the Mcx at that level

[chrome trench]

Should have mloc stuff then

[fresh vale]

wym

[open hedge]

You minimum need all level 3 traders to actually make that gun good

[chrome trench]

Ammo constraints I assume he means

[fresh vale]

If I can kill scavs with it , I'll do

not looking to giga deck every gun I find and want to use

[open hedge]

That gun is either trash or amazing

No In between

[chrome trench]

Is it ever amazing?

[open hedge]

So you either go big or just sell it

[open hedge]

After the recoil changes it’s very good

[brittle canyon]

with m62?

[chrome trench]

I mean if you wanna use it go for it, but obviously without maxed traders it won’t be as good as it could be

[fresh vale]

and what makes the big difference? just ammo or what?

[open hedge]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/876877608707571733/1068173123477839922/Escape_from_Tarkov_replay_2023.01.26-08.16_Trim.mp4

[chrome trench]

Ammo partly, recoil adjusting mods mostly

[open hedge]

This is with ap

Not controlled

[empty hemlock]

which bullet is better?

[open hedge]

Ps

[chrome trench]

Ps

[empty hemlock]

is it like alot better because i only have 4 bullets and cant buy more

[chrome trench]

At the level you’re at no, a bullet is a bullet

[slow crag]

you love to see it

[rough flume]

what do i do with alpha case now that i have beta case

[brittle canyon]

delete it

[rough flume]

damn cant sell it?

[chrome trench]

I think someone buys it for a couple bucks

[open hedge]

Buy 4 more alpha cases

And collect them

[bold kernel]

i

hate customs

[chrome trench]

Either skier or Yeager buys containers I think

[open hedge]

If you buy 25 alpha cases you get the secret zeta case

That is 1x1

[bold kernel]

u get the kappa without doing all quesys

[rough flume]

noone buys them ):

[dapper epoch]

PSA. Don't get tunnel vision on the supply drop

[open hedge]

N15s are the best price to performance but you can’t use a helmet with them

[fathom ocean]

damn

[open hedge]

But pnv-10t are the cheapest and are decent

“Decent”

[dapper epoch]

I spawned in as scav to hear the plane coming in lmao

[brittle canyon]

among

[rough flume]

never trust another scav when theres an airdrop on the line

[dapper epoch]

That wasn't a scav

[chrome trench]

fence buying stuff is rep based now?

[dapper epoch]

Me and that other scav were going for it together, we were gonna share it over voip

There was a pmc there

[open hedge]

He doesn’t buy my condors either

[turbid oxide]

Anyone have the Keys Disease History? ksm/spm keys.

[pseudo grove]

I think Lot of scav doesn’t know about karma

[dawn geyser]

LOL No way

What's your rep?

[chrome trench]

.22, i dont scav

[dawn geyser]

Oh it's not even negative.

[chrome trench]

but hes always bought 0 dur stuff

[brittle canyon]

.22 isn’t low

[dawn geyser]

[open hedge]

Mine is 2.61

Won’t buy my condors either

[chrome trench]

ive sold him other 0 dur "armor" no issue

[open hedge]

Maybe it has to do with how little condors can be repaired

[chrome trench]

yeah but a schmekle is a schmekle

i wish you could buy like, idk replacement lenses for like 10-15k

[open hedge]

A rouble is a rouble when a man is on a bad luck day

[chrome trench]

since repairing them is so dumb/pointless for the cost

[rough flume]

i can guarantee 9/10 times the loot in the airdrop will be worth killing another scav over

[open hedge]

Airdrop loot is usually mid

Only good shit is the occasional armor or raid bag

Maybe tank battery

[open juniper]

So where the good loot

[chrome trench]

also those were zeroed, with an altyn on, got shot in the face by mosin lps, did zero damage to the altyn, but zeroed the condors, never had that happen before, whats the order of operations for penetration? in this case which comes first, the condors or the altyn visor? seemingly the condors

[open hedge]

Nowhere

[rough flume]

maybe ur unlucky ig

ive killed and been killed at airdrops and ive made liek oevr 500k each time

worth it to me

[whole thistle]

suboptimal

[whole thistle]

places on the map

[rough flume]

0.1 rep is worth it to me

[open juniper]

Good one

[whole thistle]

Do not go on youtube and look up "(map) loot guide"

the loot isnt real

[chrome trench]

ive never seen such perfectly uniform prices

[jagged mica]

dude im so sick of people camping on extracts, entire raid i see one pmc on woods and then i kill 2 people on outskirts and 3rd kills me, like wtf

i just need a shturman kill and i die to this

[slow crag]

activate windows

[open juniper]

So what do u suggest

[chrome trench]

or at least write a bat file to turn the watermark off

[whole thistle]

to go on youtube and look up a loot guide for whatever map youre playing

[chrome trench]

you can auto run a .bat file to turn the watermark off, its just a single registry value

[open hedge]

Windows is literally free

[chrome trench]

is it now?

[open hedge]

You can legally disable the watermark for free

It’s just slightly more effort

Yes you do

That watermark is why you die

[rough flume]

^^^^

listen to him its killed me so many times i just paid 200 roobles for windows

[chrome trench]

when you play PMC, the scavs can smell the watermark, its a little known feature of the game

[open hedge]

Yes

Always tagged and cursed

Gives all pmcs radar against you

[bold kernel]

hat the game

[open hedge]

The quests after it give a ton of xp

Bitcoin farm is possibly the worst use for a gpu

[chrome trench]

i wouldnt skip that quest, but you dont need to focus it right away

use the one you get from the early quest

find/craft the other 2

[open hedge]

Crafting gpus is so bad

Like 50 hour craft time

You sell them

[chrome trench]

i assume reserve drop room still spawns them somewhat regularly, but i dont play reserve since bunker so idk

[open apex]

You’d have to play for 3 months non stop also have fir new tech that spawns in labs to have solar and gpu farm 3

It’s worst investment

Just to break even at that

If Bitcoin irl had more value different story

[open hedge]

If Bitcoin was more than like 10 roubles

120k

Still worthless

If you find one fair enough

But Bitcoin farm hell no

[outer prairie]

tbh im only gonna put non fir gpus in my farm

[open hedge]

I’d still vendor them

Wouldn’t even bother making a farm

[outer prairie]

even the first one to help cover electricity? grenade cases alr pay most of it back and a 1 gpu farm would more than cover the rest

[open hedge]

You still have to build the unit in the hideout

Which costs money

Then the gpus to vendor are still 120k each

[rough flume]

i think the break even takes a long time to get to

[open hedge]

So it would take 30 hours to break even for each individual gpu

Then we still have the cost of the hideout module

Toss another 30 hours

[frail comet]

my scope freezes for like a half a second when I aim in what settings do I change to fix that

[rough flume]

even max its still like 18 hrs right

[open hedge]

Yeah

It’s bad

[open hedge]

Get a better pc

[rough flume]

and thats like 4mil in gpus

[frail comet]

it didn’t do that until I fw my settings

Idk which one I fucked up

[open hedge]

Turn you graphics down

[chrome trench]

isnt really a way to fix it, but some settings can improve it, this game basically double renders when you use a scope with magnification, ergo the frame rate tanks

[frail comet]

It was DLSS I got it

I had it off

[open hedge]

All you can do is fsr or dlss

But those kinda suck

Game look bad

Wires

Wires

Wires

[dapper epoch]

Wires are still profitable?

[rough flume]

6 * (-20kish/cord * 2 + 15k/wire * 8) - 60k

[chrome trench]

magnum does decent profit, if you hold on till its 400+

[chrome trench]

dunno if its best though

[rough flume]

its ab 400k profit every 12 hrs for wires

[mighty thicket]

so how is sound on new patch?

crouching/slow walk actually silent now?

[chrome trench]

totally fucked

with binaural on

otherwise seemingly the same

[mighty thicket]

Wym

Do you hear less with binaural on?

[chrome trench]

i only ran 3 raids with binaural on before i gave up, the directions arent correct

you cant pin point where someone is accurately, notably less so (to me) than with it off

like someone was on my front left

and i heard them in my back right

stuff like that

https://tarkov.guru/hideout-profit/ maybe not this but im guessing this does about the same

[mighty thicket]

Lmao apparently there’s an invisible scavs bug now?

[sinful valve]

When tark says there’s a server shutdown does that mean there’s a hot fix or something incoming?

[chrome trench]

usually thats why they take the servers down yeah

idk i just googled that

[brittle canyon]

yes

[rough flume]

i thought tagilla doesnt kill playerscavs

[chrome trench]

i think all bosses do if you linger around them, unless you have really high karma

[cinder hound]

bosses kill everything

[hardy fox]

he does if you are below 6 rep

[cinder hound]

killa doesnt kill normal scavds

reshala and sanitar and shturmann kill normal scavs and player scavs

[fervent turret]

killa def murders scavs

[cinder hound]

I do not think killa kills normal scavs

or maybe he doesnt like rush them

[fervent turret]

bosses don’t murder bot scavs but they will murder pscavs

[cinder hound]

like he rushes player scavs

[fervent turret]

[cinder hound]

bosses is the wrong word

[dapper epoch]

He doesn't kill scavs he'd lose scav rep

[rotund lagoon]

at what prapor level can i buy ks 23 ?

[cinder hound]

cuz sturmann sanitar and reshala all kill scavs normally

[rough flume]

i thought there were 2 that dont kill all scavs

iirc one was tagilla and other was killa?

but mayb its only to AI scavs

or maybe im using old knowledge

[cinder hound]

ya tagilla and killa

[open hedge]

He does

[cinder hound]

i also see normal scavs chilling by gluhar tho

[open hedge]

I killed killa 2 days ago because he prioritized killing some random ai scav over me

[cinder hound]

ive never seen killa bum rushing normal scavs thats why I thought they dont aggro scavs

[fervent turret]

[open hedge]

If he’s already in a gunfight he seems to just shoot everything

I agro’d him

[cinder hound]

aha

[open hedge]

Then he just started shooting everything

[dapper epoch]

he panics

[rough flume]

hhhh

[cinder hound]

when i aggro killa he literally rushes me all over the fkin mall

[dapper epoch]

say sike rn

[cinder hound]

^it prolly wont

[fervent turret]

[cinder hound]

Bro when server shutdown last night I had so much loot on my scav

and I thought they would send it in a package when i re logged

but its just gone

[dapper epoch]

When servers shut down it was 3am and i needed to sleep

[cinder hound]

:< 3mill in a blackjack and all gone

[dapper epoch]

but my generatort was on

[fervent thistle]

why is there 2 maps (terminal and suburbs) that say not available?

[whole thistle]

they havent been made yet

[chrome trench]

cause they dont exist

[hardy fox]

how long does it take for a airdrop to come?

[whole thistle]

like 5 minutes max

[fervent thistle]

oh so they gon get added at sum point?

[whole thistle]

yea

they just added streets of tarkov

[fervent thistle]

yeah i saw

[chrome trench]

lighthouse like, what a year ago now?

[whole thistle]

yeah

[chrome trench]

have they said whats next map wise?

other than arena i assume

[whole thistle]

nope

[raven compass]

the quest "an apple a day" where the medic ask me 400.000rb, should i wait before giving money or its worth any time? like there are no advantages to wait?

[chrome trench]

unless you need the rep

you dont need to do it at all

zero benefit

[whole thistle]

its not even rep its just skill xp

[hardy fox]

wait till your health stat gets higher then do it

[whole thistle]

you never have to do it

[chrome trench]

er wait, is that the forgiveness quest or the skill quest?

[raven compass]

skill, to get health

[dapper epoch]

interchange fucking sucks

I hate this map more than factory

[rough flume]

🧢

inter is so good

thats teh ideal bro

free loots

[dapper epoch]

Must be nice to se nobody bro Im here getting sniped on the outside of the map from the mall and getting shot through walls

[whole thistle]

run directly towards every sound

[rough flume]

sounds like a skill issue

[whole thistle]

one time i finshed chumming by shooting all the lights in goshan then crabbing around with nvgs lmao

[rough flume]

💀

[dapper epoch]

its crazy how all seriousness you take for somebody just drops when they say some dumb shit like "skIlL iSsuE" in a beginners chat

[rough flume]

what is this sentence

[whole thistle]

skill issue

[rough flume]

no unironically tho if u see roof camper just shoot them. if u cant wait em out. theres a lot of things u can do to counter it

[whole thistle]

roof camper

[dapper epoch]

What am i supposed to do against a roof camper with a shotgun my guy

[open hedge]

Where

What roof

[rough flume]

1 time heard roof camper at emercom. stayed behind parking lot wall waited for him to come down to loot and a kill and snagged his 100k+ adar build

ump but was shotgun range

[open hedge]

Used too with a bug

It’s not modeled

Barely even has collisions

[rough flume]

what if we kissed on the interchange roof

[whole thistle]

i like throwing flashbangs i spawn with up through the skylights in interchange

[open hedge]

I like to Throw my will to live up there

Or just like

Not angry ones

Not every human shoots everyone on sight

Also how do they tell pmcs from scavs

Like from 300 meters

[full mango]

Is there an event yesterday which increases your Endurance skill?

[honest ingot]

Check patch notes

[full mango]

I think I automatically get my endurance skill leveled up by one yesterday

I used to be able to carry around 22 kg without getting overweight but now I can do like 25

[tired isle]

do i fr gotta wait a wholeass day inbetween each gunsmith quest

gunsmith part 12 ?

like i mean

i just finished part 12 do i have to wait till tomorrow for part 13 ?

that is very annoying

considering i was grinding quests for pk so i can get the qdc supp

[frail comet]

Is there a way to trade or sell euros for roubles

[tired isle]

nope

[ocean fable]

not directly, however various things will be listed on flea for Euros at a decent conversion rate. You buy things off flea in Euro and then sell them to vendors for roubles

[dreamy imp]

some people, if you know what your looking for you can tell when its someone doing that but people dont pay attention sometimes

[open hedge]

The playing dead thing is always so funny to me

[red anvil]

whhat do i do with airsoft magazine?

[open hedge]

Because I never fall for it so I just walk behind them and shoot them

[open hedge]

Treasure it

[dapper epoch]

Someone please help me understand this

I died to a scav, that wasnt a player

[tardy crescent]

There was two scavs

Probably just outside of your vision or behind the bushes

[dapper epoch]

Yeah where in the fuck was the second one

That sounded like it came from miles away

It sounded like a sniper or something

[rough flume]

map? snipwr scavs exist

[dapper epoch]

Interchange

The shit one

[rough flume]

prolly unlucky then kekw

[brisk wharf]

so whats the problem

AI scav still triggers to you even though you kill a traitor scav

[rough flume]

looks like u got shot from the roght side. right arm blacked first

[polar steppe]

Hey is there anyone who can Sherpa me I’m new to the game and I’m really struggling

Based in the uk

[dapper epoch]

That was prob just over damage, it was at 1hp

[rough flume]

over daamge applied to black limbs

[rigid wind]

is this key worth it?

[brisk wharf]

no if you cant go to the island

[rough flume]

no dog key

[rigid wind]

ohh ok

i will sell it then

[dapper epoch]

Weird. Idk. Maybe it was an audio thing and it was that scav that was on my right initially who just got an angle on my right side, but I swear it sounded like the shots came from the left

[rough flume]

lighthouse map need lvl 2/3 intelligence hideout to get there forget which one

sell to thera if u dont have fles

they dont sell on flea and fee makes it less worth anyways

[rigid wind]

how do you get on the island anyway

i just die everytime

[dapper epoch]

Two different shots

[rough flume]

need some stupid chip that lets the lightkeeper be like o i turn off claymore

[rough flume]

well one is prolly becayse u were damaged alresdy

[brisk wharf]

it did came from left, 2 different gun sounds

[dapper epoch]

Yeah

I was indeed damaged already

Im always a bit confused at this screen and seeing what exactly killed me

I wish it just showed the character of who killed you

Like their model or something

[brisk wharf]

it feels like shot came from here but no visual though @dapper epoch

[rough flume]

looks like the 7.62 shot thru ur arm and hit ur torso

[dapper epoch]

Rip

Im not even mad about it im just curious cuz i died to something I had 0 visual on

[brisk wharf]

I found it

@dapper epoch

[rough flume]

tbf u didnt really look around kekw

[dapper epoch]

Oh?

[brisk wharf]

check seconds 8 to 10 here

[dapper epoch]

Oh shit i see it

[brisk wharf]

this guy moving behind tree

[dapper epoch]

That sneaky bastard

[rough flume]

xD

[brisk wharf]

weird thing is he didint use voiceline lol

but first scav did

[dapper epoch]

Maybe too far?

putting a bounty on Igor Pravilnyy

[brisk wharf]

other scav was near to him too but 🤔

[brisk wharf]

lol

I swear syringers are hard to find or I need better place than woods

[dapper epoch]

lmfao

Now i wanna know what gun that dude used it sounded sexy

Just pop pop

[brisk wharf]

sks probs

[quasi yew]

[dapper epoch]

Jokes on Igor, I still got out with a cord and rat poison

Dorm in the 3 story

[brisk wharf]

[whole thistle]

[quasi yew]

Wait its 206??

[brisk wharf]

[dapper epoch]

Yes

[whole thistle]

205

[dapper epoch]

[quasi yew]

Ah fair

[frosty whale]

i have 3 labs access carss

[brisk wharf]

syringes? nah

[frosty whale]

should i sell some

[brisk wharf]

if fir keep

you'll need em for quest

[dapper epoch]

How do i get scavs to co op exfil with me

Can i beckon ai scavs :)

[brisk wharf]

people could do this on interchange

unsure if it still working

[brisk wharf]

if you cant find any scav to extract with you, pay attention to some gun shooting patterns near coop extracts

I sometimes fire there to alert pmcs

[dapper epoch]

If i wanna really farm my rep would it be worth to just load in pmc and chill at a co op extract all game

the bag be heavy

[bold kernel]

What armor should i be running from ragman LL3

Ghels?

[dapper epoch]

i dont know kg im american

damn

thats a heavy bag

a backpack dont weigh that much

I didnt even know the weight of med supplies goes down as you use it tho

Same im literally in raid rn

I was gaslit

did i just find the most evil spot

He'd never know

[hushed tusk]

it might work it might not

try to find a spot where you have more vision

but great spot

[whole thistle]

theres another train spot like that next to fortress

stash down there too

[dapper epoch]

pmc was wearing a fucking dumb cartoon mask thing so i thought he was a scav

So he started shooting at me so i let him hit me first

But that got me killed

He was so bad oh my fucking god I had a clear shot on his head for like 5 seconds

Scav rep be mentally abusing me

[whole thistle]

Go use the spot on pmc

[dapper epoch]

No no it wasnt in that spot

It was way later in one of the customs buildings

I was looting and literally watched him walk in the doorway

I voicelined and he looked right at me and kept walking like???

I thought he was a pscav. THen he started shooting out of nowhere lmfao

Here

Now im not saying im good at pvp. Lets get that straight. But his first shot made my arm and stomach red, and broke my arm lmao

[bold kernel]

holy shit how are u that bad

[dapper epoch]

If you wanna read above you can see why i didnt shoot him at first

[bold kernel]

but yeah he will make ur parts red if u have no body armor

[dapper epoch]

Hearing explosions in the first minute or two of woods will never not be amusing as fuck

And then hearing the second one after that is even funnier

I get to laugh at them because I was them

Most of my first deaths were woods mines

I think i joined this server to ask how the fuck to avoid them

[frail comet]

new recoil too OP bro I just spawned as a scav with no armor and beamed a fully kitted dude w level 5 armor and fully modded RD full backpack and rig too

I lowkey liked hip fire meta more

[frosty whale]

should i sell this silver badge i found

im lvl 19 rn so idk if im gonna get to kappa

[cyan flume]

how you report person

[frail comet]

After they kill u it’s to the left of their name

[frail comet]

It’s still early wipe id keep it

[cyan flume]

ty i meant discord server tho

[tame shard]

skill issue

[dawn geyser]

#discord-mod-mail

[tame shard]

yooo @dawn geyser kwon

skill issue

[open hedge]

I will kiss you on the lips

[plucky reef]

hm whats "normal" que time for customs as scav? I removed one server and added two, now the que have gone up from 3 minutes and i'm in a game to well 5.30 min and still matching

[dawn geyser]

Hello

[tame shard]

@open hedge yo senatr res

[mighty thicket]

doesnt matter what armor you have if your ammo kills them first, wtf kind of gun/ammo did you spawn with as a scav to do that

[tame shard]

@dawn geyser wanna carry me in tarky 👉 👈

[frail comet]

i didnt say i had that armor

they did

but my ak had 0 recoil so it shredded somehow

[open hedge]

Guns have vertical recoil

Unchanged

So guns still have recoil

You’re exaggerating

[frail comet]

yea its visual recoil ig

but hard to see where ur shooting before when ur guns looking at the sky

[hardy fox]

Ofc guns are gonna recoil

But it’s lowered now

[tame shard]

🤯

[rough flume]

i dont think recoil was buffed i think it was just how much ur camera moves

[brittle canyon]

soft stats on all guns were buffed

[frail comet]

yea its 20% visual reduction

feels more than 20% tho

[whole thistle]

even then that helps a lot, have you ever seen this game with no visual recoil?

[rough flume]

yeah i know its a huge buff kekw

u can see where ur crosshair is on most sights now when shooting

[open hedge]

The hidden stat change is very nice

[inland cliff]

anyone know a guaranteed spawn for ox bleach

i was pretty sure there is one

nah hideout for bitches

im go interchange scav and look in computer rooms

[rough flume]

check wiki

if there is one itll list it

[untold elm]

reset scav timer after how long?

[open hedge]

Many variables

Scav rep and intel station

[cedar bay]

could someone help me clean my stash? its really full but idk what to get rid 😅

I have a lot of gear but its good gear so I dont wanna sell it as I cant buy it yet

[rough flume]

find a friend

go chad get shot by scav

shoot scav before dead

😭

buy a second acc and comp and go into raid with urself and shoot urself

[lilac grail]

did they buff scav case just got blessed

[primal yacht]

am i dumb or is this a lot of rewards for a simple task

[brittle canyon]

pretty good

[lilac grail]

I got a similar one.

[primal yacht]

wanna complete them togehter ? idk streets that well

[brittle canyon]

pretty mid

[rough flume]

goddam nice luck

[lilac grail]

from intel

[sonic geyser]

Hi i am new write me if you wanna play later

[open hedge]

Hello new

I’m Senator Reeses

[cedar bay]

dude dont make fun of him for learning multiple languages

[open hedge]

He made no grammatical errors

I was simply poking fun at an old joke

[drowsy bronze]

do scav players just sometimes kill you for no reason?

[cedar bay]

yes

[open hedge]

Player scavs are the worst thing in tarkov

[cedar bay]

pscavs would be fine if penalties for killing scavs were way worse so that no one would do it

[open hedge]

Pscavs would be fine if they didn’t load in until last 20 minutes

[cedar bay]

thats also true

lighthouse is stupid, I usually spawn with like 36mins left of a 40min raid

[open hedge]

Yeah it’s seriously broken

No risk

All the reward

Such a crutch

“We don’t hold hands” ok remove scavs then

[drowsy bronze]

why dont they remove the cooldown for scav if you get killed by a pscav for no reason

[cedar bay]

i like the concept but they should make the spawns way later, the 20min max is a good idea

[cedar bay]

because screw you

xD

[pseudo relic]

so that you cant be a filthy scav main

[drowsy bronze]

[viral snow]

[elfin elm]

Was the 20% recoil change during last night's patch, or did that happen before that patch

[open hedge]

Happen before

[cedar bay]

easy enough 😂

[viral snow]

nrg 100

[cedar bay]

nrg?

[viral snow]

energy

n r g

[cedar bay]

oh lol

just spelled it out in my head in another language so didnt make sense XD

[viral snow]

nah ur chillin

my bio teacher taught me that

[cedar bay]

:D

[ionic urchin]

what dorm 114 for?

[fresh vale]

what's some good ammo for M700 other than M80?

[cedar bay]

BS

wait wrong caliber my bad

[open hedge]

M62 m61

[fresh vale]

the sniper ammo, I don't have that many options

[cedar bay]

m993

[ionic urchin]

should i keep or flee dorm 114

[cedar bay]

keep all keys

[ionic urchin]

ok

do you need graphics cards for bit coin farm/

[cedar bay]

yes but you wont need it for a long time so sell it if you need money

[open hedge]

Bitcoin farm is not worth your time or money

[fresh vale]

I can't buy m62 yet

[open hedge]

Then you have no other options

There is only 3 good .308 rounds

[fresh vale]

you're always either the very best or it's trash=sell

[ionic urchin]

im one intelligence off my bitcoin farm so im wondering if i should flee the gc for the last intel

[cedar bay]

wdym? It is worth as long as you get it in the earlier half of the wipe

[open hedge]

M80 m62 m61 and m993 are the only bullets capable of penetrating class 4 armor

[fresh vale]

I don't aim for thorax when sniping tho

[cedar bay]

most people wear helmets

[open hedge]

Aiming head is inconsistent and many helmets will stop the rounds

You need m80 to run .308

Or better

[viral snow]

I run leg meta sniper

[lilac grail]

just had a 2mb patch btw if anyone cant find lobbies

[ionic urchin]

6 more cord an bitcoin farm is up

[open hedge]

I assure you it’s not worth your investment

[ionic urchin]

i make money like there no tomorrow ill be ight

got 35 mil worth in stash\

[open hedge]

So since you make money that justifies throwing it away?

[ionic urchin]

in long runn its help i get wepon cases n free money ass well

as

[open hedge]

Assuming you make this thing maxed out

It still takes about a day for 1 btc

[ionic urchin]

i find psu like i find shit guns lol ill be able to upgrade it

[rare bough]

Hey is there someone that can help me with the Colleagues Part 2 Quest ?

[cedar bay]

whats your money making technique?

[ionic urchin]

[cedar bay]

I would probably gain close to a mil or 2 if I just cleaned up my stash, its so fkn full rn

[viral snow]

[cedar bay]

I have like 40 slots free right now :L

[viral snow]

[ionic urchin]

mine is too lot of meta gear an guns im just trynna get labs cards so i can run labs

[cedar bay]

[ionic urchin]

i got 2 med boxes full 2 scav boxes full on eod with maybe 25 slots left

[cedar bay]

[lilac grail]

are regular labs runs worth it? like without premium cards

[ionic urchin]

i got 1

[cedar bay]

I also have an item case full of headsets, like 9 class 4 and 5 armor pieces, like 10-12 mppv rigs

counted 96 backpacks yesterday

[ionic urchin]

[viral snow]

[cedar bay]

I have just over 2

[ionic urchin]

noice i get the traitor scavs so i gotta put em down so it hurt my rep

[lilac grail]

[carmine oxide]

[ionic urchin]

[lilac grail]

dont think so.

[ionic urchin]

no he dont need em

[viral snow]

[lilac grail]

[cedar bay]

I have

[lilac grail]

lmao no dont be dumb XD

[cedar bay]

i killed santa twice cuz the fat bastard rushed me mid fights with other pmcs

[carmine oxide]

cuz I found tagilla on factory, I killed 2 scavs with the same name and he started to chase me around

[viral snow]

[ionic urchin]

[lilac grail]

yeah I havent gotten anything good yet tbh

[lone peak]

is the rd-704 any good

[cedar bay]

should I sell some guns? I keep the mosins for leveling sniper skill, so not gonna sell those

[ionic urchin]

just clapped a pmc with a kedr he had a ash-12 rip him

[lilac grail]

mp9 kinda shit

[ionic urchin]

i thought i had alot of guns shit

[cedar bay]

im a hoarder 🥲

i need help

[ionic urchin]

lol i hoard barter shit i feel you im like i dont need it now but i will

[cedar bay]

yea XD

i horde the most stupid things

[viral snow]

i was hoarding tglasses for a while

[ionic urchin]

this game good at making dumb iteams very usefull

[cedar bay]

I even used 5 MRE for a quest just now

[carmine oxide]

this is the most terrifying shit ever, so glad the door 3 was wide open, I close both door behind me but I saw him opening the door in from of extract literally .1 sec before I extract

[ionic urchin]

fukin hell lol dude got walmarty in his stash

[cedar bay]

XD

is it worth selling any of these? I cant buy any of them yet because of my lvl so idk if I should keep them or not, they take up so much space :L

[viral snow]

L I have 3 hotrods

[finite fulcrum]

What armor do you usually use ?

[wicked cape]

depends on what you're going for. They can be if you want meds, or some high value items, but the marked cards make it much more worth it with a lot more spawns and access to areas that can have higher valued items. If you plan to snag the colored cards later, then I'd save labs cards

if not, just go for it and watch your back

[ionic urchin]

i got a shit ton good armour its just not as orginized my shit everywhere but i know where it is i love my mess

[cedar bay]

any I have, mmac, thor, usec etc

[finite fulcrum]

Cause like those are all pretty good

[cedar bay]

I just use the ones in my stash

I very rarely buy armor or gear

[viral snow]

me irl

[finite fulcrum]

Honestly hard to say. If you run good armor normally and aren't losing it then like shit Idk

[ionic urchin]

facts i buy headsets but the shit ones

and lol

[wicked cape]

All them are good. Keep and sue them. The found in raid Gyhzel will be used for a quest as well

[cedar bay]

oh ok thanks! didnt know that, I will hang onto that one then

[viral snow]

i buy pacas and only pacas

[cedar bay]

what level is the quest? im lvl 25 right now

[ionic urchin]

paca man

[cedar bay]

lvl 2 armor :L

[rare bough]

Hey is there someone that can help me with the Colleagues Part 2 Quest ?

[frail comet]

I have an EMC key and it goes for a lot on flea what could I get if I use it instead of sell

[viral snow]

the style points though

like that blue and grey

[cedar bay]

you might have more luck in #pvp-lfg

[finite fulcrum]

Are the armor repair kits fence sells worth buying ?

[bold kernel]

gib

[fresh vale]

for a few days I've not been able to play lighthouse, I get the longest loading screens ever, then it's a black screen for like 3 minutes followed by a powerpoint slide gameplay , ends with connection error, tf do I do?

[rare bough]

thx

[bold kernel]

No

[cedar bay]

what price and what durability left?

[ionic urchin]

gib plz

[finite fulcrum]

They show 5 hp but I wasn't sure if you can like fix them or something

He's selling like 16 of them

[cedar bay]

you cant fix them

you use them to fix armor

[finite fulcrum]

But when I hit inspect it just shows 5.9 hp everytime

[cedar bay]

but they just go down in health

[finite fulcrum]

Seems worthless to sell if you can't fix them or anything

Repairing the armor he sells costs a ton so I don't even really bother

[viral snow]

it's just extra money

[rotund lagoon]

When i want to have mid range pvp where do I go i tried dorms and resort but some raids there are literaly no people there why?

[wicked cape]

2 quests need 2 of them. 1 of them (Sew it good part 2) just needs you to hand over 2 gzhels (FIR not needed) 1 with over 50% durability, 1 less than 50%. The 2nd quest you must be 29 to start and I think it needed FIR, then you stache them on interchange by the stage outside the front entrance

[spring tapir]

me too, this isnt even all of it

[finite fulcrum]

What's the point in keeping all the food

[cedar bay]

I had a shitton of normal foods and stuff but sold most if it as I realized I dont use any, just kept the "good stuff" haha

[spring tapir]

laziness mostly

[ionic urchin]

facts an they sell good in large amounts

[spring tapir]

some of it can be used for barter / crafting later on

[cedar bay]

where can I find ledx? i just bought one since I havent found one in over 150 hours this wipe, come to think of it i dont think I have ever found one

i usually just drink and eat in raid whatever I find

[finite fulcrum]

Well usually after a raid I sort my stash out and my scav 9 times out of 10 is ready.

[spring tapir]

3 kvass is a tac30, croutons for beer craft in nutrition 3, sugars for moonshine

[finite fulcrum]

So I play scav

[severe osprey]

i just binge eat in raid

[finite fulcrum]

Then when that's all over my pmc only needs a little bit of drink

[severe osprey]

anything you find goes down the hatch

[spring tapir]

max energy used to make mule

[finite fulcrum]

Almost never food

I eat and drink in raid cause food is always an abundance

[viral snow]

imagine if you could refil water bottles

[dreamy imp]

nobody would bother unless they started making food and drink more scarce

[severe osprey]

i miss the good old days of aquamarine being 150/150

[thorny crystal]

where can I find Alkaline Heat Exchanger?

[dreamy imp]

interchange

[severe osprey]

interchange on the shelves

[thorny crystal]

ok

thanks

[cedar bay]

I find a lot of it in technical supply crates

[viral snow]

cool mechanic though

[severe osprey]

refilling gas cans would be more interesting.

[dreamy imp]

I suppose but just doesnt really have a place in tarkov with the way the game is.... other survival games have it but its actually useful in them

[viral snow]

yeah jus sayn

[frail comet]

rain should fill ur water stat

fr

and if u go next to a pond or something@u should be able to drink from it

like ark

[plucky reef]

why stop there lets be able to eat bark near trees

[old pelican]

can anyone help with farming rogues?

[plucky reef]

shit and piss in raids as well

[frail comet]

And eat the shit for food

[lilac grail]

cant wait to get whatever fucking virusses and toxic waste is in the tarkov water supply into my body

[plucky reef]

leave poop trails

make tp expensive

[frail comet]

nothing a salewa can’t take care of fr

[lilac grail]

Oh wait I forgot there was a whole quest line about how the water wasnt potable and there are water shortages

[carmine oxide]

wait is my scav wearing a mask AND a beanie ?

[covert bane]

okay so i have a question. do i have to survive and extract? on wiki it does say it, but not in game and im asking because the same thing happened earlier where my friend and i were doing the same quest but i had the survive and extract requirement while he didnt

[swift escarp]

my game is running so slow i am guessing this error and more that i got so far has to do with it. What i mean by slow is flea is not loading, traders are not loading, icons are not loading etc.

[bold kernel]

for killing scavs without NVG quest, can i still have the helmet with nvg on but turned off for the quest to count?

[trim karma]

need help with bp depot task

[torn gyro]

i need help with portable bunkhouse key. for the quest

[icy dagger]

bruh, fuck scav extract campers, why do people even do that shit

Like why would someone camp a scav exit 2 mins before raid end

[distant fable]

for the juice

[whole thistle]

Was it factory lol

[icy dagger]

No, customs

[whole thistle]

Probably just someone extracting at the same time as you tbh

[icy dagger]

At a scav only extract????

[whole thistle]

I thought you meant another scav

Camping anything with 2 minutes left is suicide he might've just been lost

[remote rivet]

Not D2

[reef prairie]

iirc the extract part of the quest only shows up after you finished the other tasks

[icy dagger]

Thats why I'm so pissed, he 100% didnt make it

So whats the point of being such a piece of shit

[covert bane]

fair thanks

[whole thistle]

Lol

[whole thistle]

Maybe that's why

It's trolling

[mighty thicket]

???

i have everything

[whole thistle]

No muzzle brake

[reef prairie]

if im not completely wrong here you have to do both and extract. it resets when you die

[mighty thicket]

why do i need it? my recoil is already low

[whole thistle]

The recoil requirement is added up vertical and horizontal

[covert bane]

guess ill wait until 15 mins left to start it... this map is disgusting.

[fresh vale]

what are some of the most chill spots doing Shooter born in heaven? pref woods and customs

I just wanna sit there and do nothing in a nice spot waiting for someone to walk into my sight

[reef prairie]

dont you need the gk02 for the quest?

[covert bane]

is that the 40m without a scope?

[whole thistle]

125m pmc headshots

[fresh vale]

nah 3 PMC kills at 125 meter range on like every map

[covert bane]

oh man wtf

[fresh vale]

I know

I think it's every map except Factory

[covert bane]

to be fair id do it on scav house at woods

[trim karma]

need help with bp depot task

[reef prairie]

and inter

[fresh vale]

true , good spot

[covert bane]

or around the roadblock area

[reef prairie]

and labs ofc

[fresh vale]

scav house is good

[covert bane]

gotten many 100+m 1 taps there

[whole thistle]

Sniper rock is the simplest

[reef prairie]

sbih on inter was wild 🤣

[fresh vale]

my longest shot is 250 something I think

[whole thistle]

The only use anyone has ever found for that billboard staircase

[reef prairie]

that or the roof on the backside

[hard trail]

anyone knows what after the new update my games starts to crash even all last wipes my games was working fine with not crashes?
Also Ive noticed that i have lots of FPS drops and before the this wipe it never happends

[finite fulcrum]

Tarkov shooter part 1 just seems impossible

I can't ever get a scav to be at the distance I need

[sweet mist]

Would anybody be willing to help me with the pocket watch task? dont have the key because i killed last time i tried

[whole thistle]

It's really easy on shoreline and customs

[rigid wind]

okay so pressing turn in usd just yoinks all of my usd

wtf

[finite fulcrum]

I was trying on customs for a while but no luck

[astral barn]

anyone got some cheap (but decent) guns for me

[finite fulcrum]

I'm not a fan of snipers so this is more difficult then it probably needs to be

Snipers just seem like a really boring way to play.

[whole thistle]

Just check scav spawns then reset

What are you doing lol

[finite fulcrum]

Need to try a Mosin instead

[pseudo relic]

flea or no flea

[finite fulcrum]

Might be a bit easier

[astral barn]

no flea im beginner

[astral barn]

i have jaeger though

[pseudo relic]

idk bro mosin works decent sometimes

[violet shale]

I got mine on woods with the mosin

[rigid wind]

but shotgun

very nice

[finite fulcrum]

I've just been using this little gornasty

Whatever it's called

[covert bane]

mosin better

[finite fulcrum]

Yeah

More expensive thougu

[violet shale]

I had like 3 mil before I started tasking so it was nothing lol

[whole thistle]

It's gonna be the same result for scav killing

Also press alt to hold breath while standing still and aiming

[finite fulcrum]

Where's a good spot to be in customs then

[astral barn]

whats the best mosin

[errant crane]

many variables on a good spot to be

[whole thistle]

Bronze pocket watch area, old gas, and the spot between the warehouses near unknown key

[whole thistle]

They're all the same except you can't put a scope on the infantry

Only on sniper version

[finite fulcrum]

I was sitting at one of thr scav sniper area

[bold kernel]

Is there a way to know which weapon attachments I should save, before hitting lvl 15, to sell on the flea market?

[finite fulcrum]

The checkpoint one I believe

[whole thistle]

Scavs don't spawn near you

So don't wait for them

[astral barn]

what ammo should i slap on the mosin then (all level 1 traders)

[whole thistle]

https://tarkov-market.com

[whole thistle]

Lps

[bold kernel]

For example, are any of these worth anything?

@whole thistle oh, thanks dude

[finite fulcrum]

was just staring down the road to new gas

not much was happening

[whole thistle]

Just go check if there's any scavs and if there is run away to the right distance

[fervent turret]

^^

[lilac grail]

interchange is kinda decent too scavs will run in the road and shit
