Spawned me at scav gate two people run at me from military I cut through expansion and there’s a guy in the first building, run past that to fortress(?) and get gunned down

stable cargo
#

anyone kind enough that came from the heavens above to lend me some rubles?

past river
#

yeah but i charge 100% intrest per day

#

😛

stable cargo
past river
#

nah all honesty you want to scav stash run etc can make a few hundred k easy on shoreline etc

stable cargo
#

oh shoreline u reckon ?

#

hmm ill probably have to learn the stashes area then on youtube

past river
#

yeah thats my go to. and the wiki has a great stash map

#

!wiki shoreline

#

1oh thanks man

#

iwill do that now

past river
#

np dude gd luck

brisk drift
#

can anyone send me loot infographic, so i can loot good stuff

brittle canyon
#

mapgenie

brisk drift
#

not the map, like which loot i should prioritze

#

i know a bit but i remember seeing an infrographic like 30k a slot in bag items etc

brittle canyon
#

below lv15, quest items, hideout items
after lv15, quest items, high rouble per slot items

brisk drift
#

yeah i want the images of high ruble per slot items

brittle canyon
#

just alt tab to tarkov.dev and search

#

or use ratscanner

fiery pier
#

can someone help me get the underground bunker prapor task?

waxen hull
#

got my first pilgrim bp then died to a extract camper

#

ruaf roadblock on customs

#

sitting in that tree

#

sounds about right

true timber
#

ran couple of factory raids yesterday with shotgun and flechette, can i expect this ammo to be viable on bigger maps? like customs

past river
#

!wiki woods

waxen hull
#

i mean prob not unless ur close range

true timber
#

i think it says on the shotguns that their effective range is 70m or something like that

#

but not sure if i should trust that info on gun description

waxen hull
#

wait no im wrong

#

flechette has a eff range of >1KM

#

so just make sure ur in a good range and you line up ur shot

true timber
#

1KM? wth

#

worth checking slugs with lvl 2 traders and flea? or flechette will be better anyway

woeful spruce
#

shotguns are good for close range and flechette is a perfect shothun round for that

dire folio
#

Sf is ok

true timber
#

so if i have to pick up item from dorms for quest then shotgun with flechette will do? or go for smg or ar

past river
dire folio
#

Flechette scary

past river
#

super proformance and the copper slugs give decent accuracy buffs

true timber
#

also another thing, if you use bolt action rifles lets say on woods, do you bring another gun with you for possible close range combat? im thinking about going with a pistol and bolt action like m700 or mosin

past river
#

a pistol is allways a good idea if you run a bolt action yes, till you get more confident with them then you will be no scoping like a boss

dire folio
#

I bring a grach or kedr

#

Or my 20 dura mp5

true timber
#

if shotgun has single fire and semi auto mode, does using single fire give any benefits? like increased accuracy when you tap or something

dire folio
#

Probably

humble tide
edgy plover
true timber
#

ok so going further with this, if i want to tap a sniper scav from lets say 200m and i got assault rifle, should i switch single fire and tap or stay in full auto and click once?

edgy plover
#

Im a fan of switching to semi, but it’s personal preference

dire folio
#

Whatever youre more confident in

true timber
#

so there no differences except for potential fire rate in these modes?

humble tide
dire folio
#

Shep i still cant find ledx, gonna cry

edgy plover
#

Me neither :(

dire folio
#

My friend is so lucky

#

Hes found like 8 gpus

Filing cabinets and safes

true timber
#

got all of my gas analysers scaving on customs, always checked the crate outside of crackhouse and then in skeleton or w/e its called, i believe there is another crate or two in the building with mounted machine guns

interchange and the tech spawns are good for flash drives.

true timber
#

tech spawns you mean random places that loot can be in? not in computers or crates, right?

dire folio
#

The pcs can have them attached to them too iirc

#

Like in the front of them

humble tide
past river
humble tide
past river
#

worst case if you still havent got them by the time you get intel centre lvl2 you can craft them

#

but you should find them by then tbf

true timber
#

gotta look for the spawns on interchange then

subtle thunder
#

if i reset my account can i reclaim gifts that i have claimed before so long as they are still available?

past river
#

good question, but im not to sure.

subtle thunder
#

because im so down bad on my account and accidentally claimed the mp7 gift so im bouta reset

past river
#

down how?

#

like broke with no kits?

subtle thunder
#

36k roubles

#

yep

dire folio
#

You can recover

past river
#

ahh you can allways make rubles dude even easier if your level 15

dire folio
#

1 scav and you can get a kit

subtle thunder
#

im not lvl 15 haha and my scav karma is -3

past river
#

ahhh then yeah reset lol

subtle thunder
#

im best off restarting

past river
#

sod trying to repair -3

subtle thunder
#

and im only 60 hours so my 2 scav karma fixing quests r so hard for me

bold kernel
#

What are the best ledx keys for shoreline I have W216 and blue tape

true timber
#

looks like i need med station lvl 3 to build intel 2 and craft flash drives, so thats quite rough

subtle thunder
#

i killed santa once not knowing what it did and i killed him another time thinking it didnt affect u when ur pmc so thats -2 scav karma on its own

past river
#

probably blue tape or there is west 104 office key i think let me check

#

yeah west104

#

chance to have them spawn on the shelves in there

subtle thunder
#

can i get some help on everything that reduces scav karma because so far ive fucked up badly

delicate canyon
#

Blue tape not even good for Ledx

Killing scavs as a scav

past river
#

killing other player or ai scavs

dire folio
#

Killing bosses as a scav

#

Thats it

past river
#

-0.1 then stacks and doubles each kill (resets each scav run)

subtle thunder
dire folio
#

Oh yea, i forgot about santa lol

subtle thunder
#

thought it was only as scav u could decrease it

past river
#

so like -0.1,-0.2,-0.4,-0.8 etc etc

subtle thunder
#

can u help by telling me everything u can do as a pmc to ruin ur scav karma or is it just killing santa?

humble tide
subtle thunder
#

ill kill scavs a spmc that fine?

subtle thunder
#

being new to tarkov is a difficult thing so different to other games thats why i love it

#

has a major skill gap

past river
#

read back i mentioned the big one that gets alot of people. as everyone thinks ohhh wow free gear then notices the effect and goes ohh shit lol

subtle thunder
#

oh shit

#

that would of hurt me to

past river
#

onepeg has a really good video explaining how scav karma works this wipe

humble tide

#

except santa

humble tide
#

lucky for you you have 11 months of nothing to worry about

analog fulcrum

yep santa is the exception to that rule

subtle thunder

thats a bad choice i learnt that the hard way

wtf is this garbage? i looted like 5 boxes and played for 4 mins. u can literally run to extract within 30 seconds of spawning and get survive

subtle thunder
past river
past river
#

whats your scav karma at ?

subtle thunder
#

-3 XD

past river
#

maybe its related to that rage?

covert bane
#

i spawned in with mad loot as scav and wasnt risking it, ran to extract below 30 secods (spawned underground rightn ext to it) and i got 400 xp survive

#

i have 5.3 rep

subtle thunder
#

nice

past river
#

oddd unless its a random bug sort of thing

#

game mistakes the scav for a pmc rules wise

covert bane
#

oh well

analog fulcrum
past river
#

he was a scav that shouldnt come into effect

covert bane
#

i did loot a ton of stuff actually

#

everything besides the mag was looted

#

usually i get survive with way less time played and less loot

past river
#

i have never had a runthrough as a scav and regularly run str8 to exfil having done nothing to gain xp

subtle thunder
#

yo @past river

past river
subtle thunder
#

u want the rest of my decent stuff when b4 i reset got a hgrid and a m4

analog fulcrum
covert bane
#

oh makes sense

#

yeah that was an early raid

subtle thunder

if ur on anyway

covert bane

got in at like 17 mins

past river
#

nah thats cool dude, load your self up with it and add another lower level to group etc hand it off to them. but ty for the offer

subtle thunder
#

yeh ight man lost all my money and gear cuz of my dumbass mates haha

#

and me helping em

past river
#

ahhh happens dude. like you said the games brutal for new players

jade hamlet
#

i have some pc parts ram and hdd im lvl 5 i need some cash who do i sell it to thanks

past river
#

mechanic or peackeeper

subtle thunder
#

i had to spend so much money on gear for him to help out

past river
#

therapist gives the best usually aside tool and tech stuff i find

humble tide
past river
#

then get to re run them all with him when he can get on

jade hamlet
#

i wish flea market was unlocked at lvl 5 its hard if only sell option was available

#

hey also im poor right now doing scav runs on interchange any nice loot locations

subtle thunder

past river
#

first time round lvl 15 seems so hard to reach, but tis not to hard tbf this my first wipe and i made it in 5days while last wipe when i joined it took me nearly triple that

subtle thunder

humble tide
#

I am only just about 15 playing very very off and on

humble tide
past river
#

nikita said eventually they plan on having two options. either a no wipe server or a wipes every 6 months etc style server once the game is ready for release.

subtle thunder
#

oh shit nice ill probs grind that idk tho im still not sure about if i want to repeat the grind or just stay end game

analog fulcrum
subtle thunder
#

trying

#

i have been in 100+ odd raids and made it out in about 10 of em

humble tide
subtle thunder
#

yeh but i still struggle with mine

humble tide
#

which ones are you trying now

jade hamlet
#

i think in other games like battlefield or insurtgency sandstorm you are not hesitant so i do well but in tarkov you know you die you lose everything so i f*ck up and ended piss poor man , really the scav looks richer than me

subtle thunder
#

finding stuff for jaeger, 3 pistol pmc kills, some messenger task with skier, a water thing at dorms with therapist and some other

humble tide
subtle thunder
#

i dont stuggle in killing shit with pistols i got 7 kills 1 raid but they were all scav didnt find a single pmc

humble tide
rotund lagoon
#

i am guesing i should keep these right?

I rarely play with the same people twice

subtle thunder

why

#

how do you trust random people

humble tide

I just do, 9/10 people in the channel are decent players and decent blokes

subtle thunder
#

yeh ight

humble tide

only bad experiences I have are with young kids

if you find them on here, they will get banned if they team kill on spawn like most randoms in the game group menu will do

#

and yeh after my first month ever I was like 10-15% survival rate too xP, but now Im at lvl42, with 52% a few wipes later, so u'l get there

subtle thunder
#

yeh

humble tide
subtle thunder
#

yeh i know it was with prapor but his tasks are generally quite easy and i have decent rep with him

analog fulcrum
#

I believe u loose therapist rep too

humble tide
#

think so

subtle thunder
#

ah ight

humble tide
#

but the key to survival especially as a solo is learning maps really really well

subtle thunder
#

well i was a bit on the edge of not doing it tue to the rep thing but my mate told me i should do it anyway cuz tasks are what i need to do

subtle thunder
#

interchange im not as good with but im ight

humble tide
#

and sound cues, I killed a trio last night in dorms who were all holding hands because I heard them medding and reloading etc

subtle thunder
#

ah

humble tide
#

customs is good money as well

subtle thunder
#

sorry i didnt mean woods i meant lighthouse im terrible at woods

humble tide
#

oh god don't play lighthouse

#

full of sweaty virgins

subtle thunder
#

lighthouse i love running for the rogues

#

thats how i get my scars and m4s and my hgrid

#

ima take all my gear out on a labs run b4 i reset my account dont even know the extracts just wanna see the map

#

i got 1 labs card that i aint used

#

ill take my m4 and mp7

#

if i manage to extract ill give all that shit away

humble tide
#

why not just keep the account if you have decent gear

#

you can always come back from shit karma

subtle thunder
#

yeh ik but my tasks for that are so hard for me

humble tide
#

what are they

subtle thunder
#

get a jack daniels and some colas and then i have to get 7 pmc kills with ak weapons and i dont have any of those

#

i got 2 of those tasks even after that im worse than -1

humble tide
#

oh that's not as bad as you think

subtle thunder
#

ive had those tasks for like 3weeks and still no progress

humble tide
#

buy ak from prapor, shoot people in the face, hit ration crates, done, easy

#

for now just focus on learning a single map and getting good at surviving

#

kills will come

subtle thunder
#

my aim is terrible in tarkov i miss everything

humble tide
#

my aim is garbage, positioning matters more than aim

subtle thunder
#

ight

past river
#

key is to learn to point shoot unless your at long range

subtle thunder
#

even then ive got fuck all tasks done even if i reset the stage i will be in will be almost identical to what im in now except ill have money and gear

past river
#

that helped me in pvp the most

humble tide
past river
#

then positioning starts coming the more you engage and learn the maps etc

subtle thunder
#

i know customs really well only cuz my friends like it alot i dont, i know light house well because i like kiling rogues for good shit and then i know interchange a bit cuz i got bored and fucked around in offline raids to fight killa

humble tide
brisk drift
#

what is the best weapon-ammo i can use at level 15 with flea ?

jaunty prism

oh ash 12

brittle canyon

Or revolver if you're a sadist

edgy plover
#

ASH and RSH-12
It's rare though.
.366 AP also works, as does m62

humble tide
subtle thunder
#

once i get flea unlocked ima spend a bunch of money spare nothing just so i have the gear to take him out i wanna see his gear and gun

humble tide
edgy plover

#

true ive died 5 times against him in offline raids

#

was using a scar and fmj ammo

That would be why

haha

humble tide
#

Yeah no way that pens his armour

brittle canyon
#

m855 is the “trash”

subtle thunder
#

what ammo should i use with my scars and m4s then?

#

cuz i thought fmj was good

brittle canyon
#

sell the 556 guns and wait until you complete cult part 1

#

from peacekeeper

humble tide
brittle canyon
#

and then buy 856a1 off of him

subtle thunder
#

i aint wanna be stuck with VPOs

#

i only got 1 haha

brittle canyon
humble tide
subtle thunder
#

i got 2 guns shitty VPO and a m4

#

from a rogue

humble tide
subtle thunder
#

i die pretty much every raid

#

havent survived one in like a week

humble tide
#

How slow do you take things, also run less, I see s lot of new players hold down shift

brittle canyon
#

don’t run scav guns unless really desperate
repairing to high 80s or low 90s isn’t enough to stop guns from jamming

subtle thunder
humble tide
#

Do you always play solo?

brittle canyon
#

run out in the open

subtle thunder
#

recently i have played a lot of solo yes

humble tide
#

Try a duo, it helps with learning because you can focus less on worrying about people and more about focusing the map if you have someone competent

subtle thunder
#

my first week was 2-4 man after that my team had reasons they didnt play with me 1 stopped playing another blames me for him not having many tasks done

subtle thunder
#

tryna

humble tide
#

Won't take long at all

subtle thunder
#

i have been this whole time

#

anyway u got an idea for what scope i should get i would like a variable scope like 1-6 or something

brittle canyon
#

for what gun and what map

humble tide
#

Kinda rough on level one traders, yeah, what's it for

#

I guess if you give peacekeeper money he has acogs and things

#

At level 2

brittle canyon
#

acog is fixed 4x for like 30k
stuff like valday and elcan is 60k
burris 80k
good ones like razor or vudu 95k

#

the shitty KMZ is kinda cheap but it’s 3-10x and has bad ergo

#

PSO is very cheap good for poverty runs with sks

subtle thunder
brittle canyon
#

yeah that asks for 60k usually

humble tide
#

Pso is a very good option, just whip it off if you need to go indoors

subtle thunder
#

thats ight with me

humble tide
#

Cheap as anything

brittle canyon
#

elcan, valday, hamr with dp, etc

subtle thunder
#

i once had a really nice decked AKM that i lost had a 1-6 scope was really nice i loved it

humble tide
#

You'll be pressed to find variable optics at low level without flea

subtle thunder
#

ill grind for flea

#

might try trading with someone on here

humble tide
#

I don't think they allow trading here

subtle thunder
#

give em like 100k worth of rigs or whatever for a scope

#

or just give em 100k roubles

subtle thunder
humble tide
subtle thunder

aint no way

It's to combat RMT

go to the actual lfg channel and you will have better luck what is with you people

opaque torrent

I have such bad gear fear man

humble tide
opaque torrent
#

yes

humble tide
#

first thing you do at the start of each session, load up factory offline with max scavs become tagged and cursed and survive as long as you can

#

then go into raids assuming any gear you have is already gone or will be at some point

opaque torrent
#

should i put my best gear onf or that

humble tide
#

up to you, whatever you want to get comfortable with

opaque torrent
#

yeah fair

humble tide

and finally when going into raid, have an objective and aim to get that done without getting distracted by fights or whatever

outer prairie
#

advice on doing wounded beast solo? feel like i’m gonna die a lot to scavs if i don’t go kitted, or i’ll get into a fight with a pmc and have to heal or die if i go in kitted

orchid salmon
#

Just bring whatever you normally bring to a raid, get pain effect, dont pk and shoot scavs

outer prairie
#

wait im dumb

#

i meant tough guy

#

i keep getting them confused

orchid salmon
#

Ah

#

That makes more sense I was like why is that quest gear or solo/team dependant lol

#

Well tough guy can be a bit hard

#

I normally do this: I bring normal gear and move from spawn to near extract. If I get into a pmc fight, i will heal and win and extract or die and try again.

#

If you dont get into pmc fight, kill scavs and get out

#

Preferably something with a scope so you can more safely take out the scavs

outer prairie
#

ahh yeah that makes sense

sadly the game doesnt alow you to check that in game but theres plenty of great 3rd party maps like mapgenie.io/tarkov

there you can see maps of locations and names of extracts and other info

i think its enough, they'll ban him

but idk

i'd really like that to happen ive been looking for him so long cant find him

only killed him once before i got the quest to gety him and now hes nowhere to be found

I think I'm starting to get over gear fear, I don't mind going into a raid with a rig, bag, helmet, armor, and mp-133 (heard it's good with 6.5 express, please tell me if there is better options for guns and/or ammo) but if I hear a single footstep that isn't mine, I start being a rat. My heart also starts beating like crazy. I don't think it's solo anxiety because usually I don't mind going into a raid solo. Is there a way to overcome pvp anxiety or is it something that's gained from experience and throwing yourself out there with the intent to learn from mistakes

past river
#

but glad your getting past that gear fear dude

frosty musk
#

I just have too much stuff from scav

#

I probably have like 20 scav raids and 6 pmc raids

past river

the 152 handles the same as the 133 just its semi auto so can dump rounds that bit faster when needed

ahhh im the same. id fulltime scav if it had more quests to do as them

frosty musk
#

I don't know how to get a hand on the barter stuff for it

past river
#

what lvl trader are you and pmc etc?

frosty musk
#

Level 5 with level 1 traders

#

I don't have much options

#

I just probably have 8 backpacks, 7 or so rigs, and like 8 pieces of armor. Maybe 6 helmets, I also have the majority of my starter stuff (bear, standard edition) and 880k roubles

deep gyro
#

`guys i just got a labs armband what is that

past river
#

ok in that case the 133 is a good one, but check tool boxes, bags and around areas with construction stuff etc to find the items for the mp153 barter.

frosty musk
#

So learn customs and go for the construction place there would you say?

past river
#

alot of players have that kinda stash i reckon, as never know when your going to have a run of fast deaths etc

#

yeah customs, interchange and woods have alot of tool boxes etc

frosty musk
#

Do you think customs or woods is better for new players

#

I've heard customs is more intense with pvp but that may be a good thing

past river
#

personaly i found customs easier to learn but woods easier to survive on

frosty musk
#

Yeah woods has like no landmarks

#

Only really on the outskirts does it have some

past river
#

and yeah being pushed into pvp can be good especialy now most times its not insta death thanks to the ammo changes and how early into wipe it is still.

frosty musk
#

👍

#

Should I sneak around in pvp or just W key and learn from there

past river
#

entirely upto you dude, what ever you feel more comfortable doing

#

although i do here pvp favours the pusher

#

id say run some offline raids to learn the scav spawns and loot locations etc

#

then send it

safe granite
#

this crate didnt spawn a iskara i thought it was guaranteed

past river

maybe someone else got it?

It does seem from YouTube and stuff that pushing seems to win most of the time but those players are also geared and competent

no i cant be asked with this game man

#

spend 50 hours walking across the map trying to avoid bush campers with silencers and 50x scopes only to get one shot by a glitched scav

#

please someone explain to me how that shot missed too

past river
#

yeah thats like wtf turkurv for sure. the scav didnt even aggro you after you shot him. think it was the one that spawned in as you fire that got you.

frail comet
#

what’s special about the taiga

past river
#

what rounds was it? as i have had weird stuff like that with eko before shits rubbish

frail comet
#

why is that like every high end barter

past river
#

must be a quest item or somthing

#

or its just bad ass melee etc

past river
#

run fmj or if you can get it apm

#

i was allways getting things like that with eko as used it for the pen value, its ok in a vpo as your spamming the trigger etc but in a bolt action you want accuracy

nova sorrel
#

but like that distnace is less than 20m

#

surely -10% accuracy isnt the reason

past river
#

yep i know its just weird like that

#

i was using it for the bolt action shooter quests and allways had that kinda thing happen which is why i asked

#

switched to fmj and no more issues

nova sorrel
#

hahahah just rewatched it

#

i was in disbelief

#

completely flabbergasted

past river
#

think there is more to the whole bullet accuracy like weight and velocity etc and eko is zinc or something which is hella light, but like i said i just allways seemed to get that happen with it in a bolt action.

I have a question if somebody can clear it for me , do scav spawn all over the map ? Cause im constantly aiming down sights everywhere and get shot by a pmc

unless you really need the drill

red currentBOT

if you wanted to find someone who has it and will open the door for you etc

or keep trying/flea market if you have it etc

No no. I need to hand it in

I have been searching for 30+ raids and didnt find it

Can't

you can

Don't have acces to flea market yet

lol

brittle canyon

well at least you probably got a few good keys out of it

lime root
#

There is a spawn for it on customs in a train like thingy and it didnt spawn for the last 30 raids

brittle canyon
#

don’t do those

#

farm jackets

only key spawns you can trust are guaranteed spawns like backup hideout or unknown or machinery

Where would be the best place for that`?

ok thx

@clever violet Idk if you fixed the issue but my friend managed to do it by installing the launcher on the drive he didn’t want to use and then the game on the ssd

What guns should I be using when all traders are lvl 1? And when I need too buy one

primal dune
#

Hi guys, any chance someone can shed some light on the headphones being used in the game? is it really worth it and are they really helpful in hearing player/scav sounds?

stone umbra
#

Or is it better too just go scav for guns and buy ammo?

primal dune
#

what's really the difference?

#

I tried some of them offline, like prapors GSSh-1 they just make everything I do louder but mask the "environment" sound

#

a bush next to me sounds like an nuclear alarm

use an adar. cheap and easy to mod

Was planning to use it on woods if that helps

also ur using what look like 10 rounders

there is one that is 1x and 6x no?

Yes i do not have acces to buy 30 rounds

limber notch

valday and tac30

#

i think they may be 1x-4x gotta double check

rain cradle

It is a 4X

limber notch

you will want something that can be 1x

#

incase you come up to some close

rain cradle

Hmm i dont have any thing to angle the 1x

ruby karma

or u can skip the 1x and go for lasers

Yeah

its kinda funny cause lasers in other games are dooky

but lasers in eft is very nice

Rip it doesnt have any tactical slots

I just had the WEIRDEST experience on tarkov can someone help me?

#

Im doing a scav run on customs. I come across a juicy dead PMC in the large fortress weapons room. Loot up. About to leave. I hear a PMC spamming the "cease fire" voice line.

Moments later a guy wearing what looks like a predator mask comes running in. I blast him and he dies. A dude with a beard comes running in. I start blasting him but he crouches down and the screen fades. Connection lost. There were 8 minutes left on the clock.

Was this some kind of event? They looked like some kind of custom character. Possibly NPC's because they didnt seem to shoot back.
