[paper jungle]

All that tells me is you will still be here

Playing, whining

Mornign folks, from the UK, are there any particular servers useful to a noob?

Dedicated discord for hooking up with folks to smooch

[snow jewel]

Shots 1-5: Clearly missed.
Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control).
Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses.
Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because you were already dead.

[mint light]

#❌〡community-servers and just look around i suppose

and sherpa hub

[native delta]

How long does it take to die of exhaustion

[brittle canyon]

at least 3

[native delta]

I had dehydration aswell near the end of my death

my pmc just flopped after I popped a propital and adrenaline to keep him going

shits bs the armoured train on reserve didnt want to leave

[brittle canyon]

always have sj12 in injector case

[native delta]

Ik I found out about that stim earlier on... before it raised in price

[brittle canyon]

worth the price

[native delta]

not really u can bring food for cheaper

[brittle canyon]

you don’t use sj12 every raid

[native delta]

ig

[brittle canyon]

every thirty raid you might get in trouble if that

[snow jewel]

its a 1 slot, used in emergencies

dont mean u use it ever time lol

[brittle canyon]

I mean yea obviously pack a ewr and sprats for big maps

level metabolism at the same time

[snow jewel]

or just like

find food

[brittle canyon]

that too

reserve has tons of food

[snow jewel]

scavs always got some snacks

[native delta]

it does but I was hiding next to armoured train cuz I killed all the raiders and 3 players

[brittle canyon]

if you died waiting for train there is a food crate right outside in the train yard

[native delta]

fucking just fell over in a corner

[snow jewel]

bros tummy hurt so much he died 💀

[paper jungle]

Should I be holding onto a vss to barter or quest it for something later?

[snow jewel]

vss lowkey slaps

i say keep it

[paper jungle]

I am not interested in it as a weapon

[brittle canyon]

craft sp6 or bp and run it with 20 rounders

you need val for gunsmith not vss

[snow jewel]

y not?

its a nice gun

[paper jungle]

Just don't really like rifles

So if it's only worth the money I will vendor it

only level 8 so I can't market it anyway

[grim obsidian]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxSs9-ioQ78
I'm new to solo play, what should I have done here? I wanted to move further right towards the oil tank but I didn't want the guy running to hear me so I could ambush him. Also not really sure where I died from. Most likely construction stairs behind me right?

[paper jungle]

Your first mistake was playing on night

[subtle thunder]

What map should I scav for money?

[snow jewel]

shoreline

[paper jungle]

The one you are most familiar with

[dire folio]

Standing still is not good idea

[subtle thunder]

So lighthouse?

[brittle canyon]

the map you know the best
if you know every map well lighthouse

[paper jungle]

Sure, make sure to slam all the caches for shit

[dire folio]

I scav factory early wipe then dont scav unless i need like specific rigs for a task

[grim obsidian]

Yea I was thinking that but didn't want to make noise

[paper jungle]

I never touch factory

If I can help it

That greasy fucking tip to tip pvp cqc crap can go to hell, I ain't playing cod

[dire folio]

Resort is more qcb

And dorms

[paper jungle]

I mean

The specific small part of the map, sure

[dire folio]

Factory is just like kill the lobby then kill scavs for task

Or for pmc kill tasks

If you just wanna quickly do it

[paper jungle]

I don't pmc solo really

That shit is mental illness on purpose

I only pmc usually with friends or if I have to for a time limited quest

[dire folio]

I like solo

But its boring

I like solo when vcing with others

Or i wanna feel immersed

[paper jungle]

Does any of this look like it's worth holding onto for barter/hideout/quests later?

[snow jewel]

(insert invisible scav yelling)

[dire folio]

Run around with a toz tryna get up in the world like its stalker lol

[paper jungle]

The HDD is damaged so I doubt that is worth it

Oh nevermind, damaged HDD for intel center for hideout

[snow jewel]

mah humble opinion

[paper jungle]

All those smokes are useless?

[dire folio]

Need it for barter for gunsmith part

[paper jungle]

I thought the 6b47 was going to be used for something later

But I could be stupid

[dire folio]

Kill tasks

Also need respirator for task

And some of those cigarettes

[paper jungle]

Well shit mono what are you doing to me

[dire folio]

You also dont need antique book

Unless for kappa

[paper jungle]

No idea what kappa is

If it is useful then I will keep the book

[lusty pike]

ngl he might just be cheating night raids tend to have more cheaters then day, but i don't know the whole encounter could have heard you before you started to record, heard your turn, other then that play cover whenever you can, play right hand peaks only, once I started to play like that I won more fights

[dire folio]

Majority of tasks done and lvl 55

Gotta get all the streamer items

[paper jungle]

Oh fuck that

[dire folio]

Yeah

I cant even get it qwq

Cant play streets

[brittle canyon]

download database for tarkov app and start using the quest and hideout tracker, found items checklist

[paper jungle]

That sounds useful, but kind of sweaty

[brittle canyon]

you can mark certain high-level quests and hideout modules as not interested to remove clutter from the checklist (this I've never seen in any other progress tracker)

I specifically asked the dev guy to add the not interested feature lmao

buy 1 junkbox early for space, get flea and toilet lv2 and craft 2 more junkboxes when mag cases are cheap (total 800k craft ish?)

1 junkbox for market and crafts 1 for quest and hideout

1 for overflow storage until you build hideout scav case, need 1 junkbox as material

[red anvil]

why always cheaters in labs?

[paper jungle]

Best loot

[red anvil]

how can i play labs without getting cheated on?

[paper jungle]

You can't

[spiral flicker]

Bruh

I haven't seen a single cheater on labs this wipe

Out of like 20 raids

[paper jungle]

See? This guy has it so bad every cheater he has come across has had the invisibility bug

😔

[red anvil]

lol?

what servers

[spiral flicker]

I play whole eu

I don't really care bout server

[red anvil]

i tried all servers but all had hackers

i just hide in a fucking room and they come and find me

[spiral flicker]

Sad

[red anvil]

0 noise

dont make it so obvious thhese fkn cheaters

[spiral flicker]

If they heard u going into the room it's easy to find u lol

Even easier on labs cuz there isn't many rooms lol

Also some players always check everything always ready

[red anvil]

they check the toilets as well?

[spiral flicker]

Oh the toilets lol

[red anvil]

i just hide around to see if there are cheaters at this point

[spiral flicker]

Maybe they saw u goin there

[paper jungle]

Ah shit, junkbox is expensive

[spiral flicker]

1.1 mil isn't too bad

[dire folio]

1.1 mil is plenty

Oh wait

[paper jungle]

Level 8 just started and not EOD

[dire folio]

Junkbox very nice investment

[paper jungle]

It isn't crazy, I have around 1m as is

[dire folio]

Even bigger reason to get it

[paper jungle]

Just, that is my whole everything

[brittle canyon]

get 1.5m and buy junkbox

[spiral flicker]

It's aight, u have to learn hot to loot

[dire folio]

I buy mine as soon as i can

[spiral flicker]

Yea same

I went in raid with 1.1k in my stash lol

[paper jungle]

Yeah probably a good investment for sure

I was able to clear out a grip of my inventory by scrapping all the guns I don't like using

Humble breathing room

[brittle canyon]

that fal mag is useless

and the paca

[paper jungle]

Oh for sure, the mag was just funny because a buddy of mine gave me a really good rifle to use in a raid and I got ripped while I had it

Prapor came through and gave me that mag

[spiral flicker]

U gotta know how to loot, so u have to know that injectors, some painkillers, some keys and things with purple background (valuables) are the most valuable things

[dire folio]

15k morphine woo

[paper jungle]

Yeah that will come with time I assume

[spiral flicker]

15k for a slot is pretty decent

[paper jungle]

The paca I will just throw on my pmc next time he gets rocked

[spiral flicker]

For sure mate

[paper jungle]

Then again probably better off using an armored rig instead

[dire folio]

Tier 3 one ragman sells at lvl 1 is pretty alright

Not the best

[paper jungle]

The uley?

[dire folio]

Idk the name

[spiral flicker]

Should be the one yea

[brittle canyon]

buy one every reset to stock up, have like 3 spare

[dire folio]

Yeah thag one

[spiral flicker]

Then there's a question if it's even worth it to buy a lvl 3 for 56k

[paper jungle]

56k isn't a lot, but if you die enough it goes quick

[spiral flicker]

At this stage of the wipe lvl 2, 3 and 4 are useless because a lot of ppl use ammo that cam easily penetrate it

I'm sayin armor not helmets xd

[paper jungle]

Yeah I lost one of those very rigs when I got my head knocked off

So the guy got a brand new one

[dire folio]

I wouldnt say 4 is useless

[spiral flicker]

Sorry yes, against scavs

[dire folio]

It saved me alot today while running resort

[flat cipher]

4 is never useless

[spiral flicker]

Idk mate, I have problem stopping these customs mfs with lvl 5s lol

[flat cipher]

4 is the minimum, always

[dire folio]

^

[spiral flicker]

Yea that's facts

[flat cipher]

anything higher is just qol

[spiral flicker]

Is wot

[flat cipher]

[spiral flicker]

[spiral flicker]

Fr

[dire folio]

[spiral flicker]

Isnt bad gun

Somewhere in a bush

Actually in my stash now lol

It was a recoil meta hk

But I was too scared to use it with 0ed armor

So I had a little fun with shotguns

[dire folio]

Mostly just smgs for me occasionally some aks or m4s

[dire folio]

Ergo ash12

[zinc canopy]

100 ergo m4 build actually really fun

[spiral flicker]

Well because I always play silencer then there probably isn't any smg

Maybe loud RD, sr-25 or rsass

But idk if they are 50+

[dire folio]

Rsass funky

[spiral flicker]

Bruv

Rsass is a giga chad gun

[solar stone]

Can anyone help me with the bronze pocket watch quest?

[dire folio]

Rsass is silly

Silliest of all guns

Try #pvp-lfg

[stable island]

i had eko had to make sure i got a face shot fr fr

[nova reef]

i just got server disconnected and tried to reconnect and right when it loads it disconnects me again. do i keep trying or did the server just die and i have to exit raid?

4th time trying to reconnect now

[snow jewel]

I tried like 8 times and it never worked

[brittle canyon]

you adsed in close range

killed your strafe speed and your peripheral vision

[stable island]

huhhh

whats that gotta do with him killing me instantly

[brittle canyon]

you made yourself a target

so he could swing and tap you

[stable island]

that was the first time he saw me

[brittle canyon]

you make noise

[paper jungle]

Not the first time he heard you

[dire folio]

Eyes in the sky

Always expect anything when im there sinfe yk scavs spawn there

[dire folio]

Worst helmet in the game

[paper jungle]

Sure looks like it

[brittle canyon]

"helmet"

[paper jungle]

Will I be needing this later or can I cash in on that sweet 80k

[brittle canyon]

sell

[paper jungle]

Noice

Also got a pilgrim that raid but this thing is way too fucking big to do anything with

[hardy fox]

Pilgrims are so bad

[dire folio]

I love running pilgrims

Bluwu bag

[paper jungle]

I will see if one of my buddies wants it

[dire folio]

Does not match ourple armband

You need them for task

So id keep one

[hardy fox]

You can craft them in the toilet tho

[dire folio]

Yeah

[paper jungle]

I can use it as my daybags holder

For tetris shit

[dire folio]

Yes

[tough oyster]

how do u get this

[dire folio]

Specific spot you jump from inside

Safe and some weapon boxes behind

[hardy fox]

It’s risky tho if you fuck it up you die

[dire folio]

You wont die.... just be near death (you probably will die)

Ive done it like twice

[hardy fox]

I do it most times on scav runs if I spawn close

[tough oyster]

i got it but how do i get out

[hardy fox]

Where i got most my flash drives

Same way you got in really

[dusty mortar]

this shit has been sold out for 4 days straight now

[red current]

The latest wipe was <t:1672209000:R> (<t:1672209000:F>) .Here are the patch notes for Patch 0.13.0. https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/169593-patch-notes-for-01300/

[dusty mortar]

loving the shared item pools

any good way to get that thing that doesnt involve luck?

it seems like luck works fine

fuck you bot

yeah had luck and grabbed one for 40k

[bleak jacinth]

So is there nothing I can do with my alpha secure container? I upgraded and wanted to sell it but no traders will buy it.

[bold kernel]

how do i get injectors cases and docs?

[haughty stream]

yo question i have a chek 15 key what should i barter for it

[robust robin]

Probably just use it if you dont know what to barter, its a really good key and you can also look inside the room to decide whether to unlock it or not

[bold kernel]

Hey guys, what can I use to add a crosshair on my monitor while playing tarkov?
Sometimes I have to hipfire and I can't really tell where the center of my screen is

[merry swift]

Ragman pays you 100k does he not

[merry swift]

You could use software for that but it's inaccurate

Guns dont always fire at the center of your screen

They fire where the barrel is pointing

Use a laser

[upbeat flax]

Also hipfiring with a laser on literally lowers your recoil stat by.. 10 or something?

[robust robin]

Not recoil, bullet spread/deviation

So a tighter spread

[upbeat flax]

Same difference for most weapons

But yea- that

[brittle canyon]

hipfiring with any tac device on makes your spread the same as your ADS spread

[true trench]

how many junk boxes are too many? I'm trying to figure where the line into hording starts.

[brittle canyon]

5

or 4

but 4 could be a “I’m an entrepreneur and I hoard shit like filters when they’re 20k”

[past river]

3 tops imo anything else is just excessive

[true trench]

damn I'm torn I have 3

[brittle canyon]

3 should cover most people’s needs

[true trench]

I have no idea what i need and what i don't so i horde it all

[brittle canyon]

use a progress tracker

[past river]

one for quests, one for storing water filters etc and one for high value barter items

[true trench]

I do and that might be part of the problem I know I need all these "eventually" I just don't know what that comes.

[brittle canyon]

but then trader dailies could ask for the most obscure shit ever so it is valid to hoard everything

I keep 2 repellants for no reason whatsoever

never got a repellant daily

[past river]

this deffo encourages the attitude as typical to get rid of somthing then the weekly or daily be hand over that shit you just sold me

[brittle canyon]

they really should buff stash space

2 more columns, 12-wide stash

[robust robin]

12 wide would be nice, but would need too much effort and would have to rework the whole ui

[true trench]

how many armors/helmets/bags should I hold on to for back ups? or should i just sell everything and buy as needed?

I got 15 bags and 4 armors and 5 helmets.

[robust robin]

You can just insure items and keep them in insurance screen

[past river]

you defo dont need 15 bags

[robust robin]

If theyre stscked its fine

[past river]

but they can stack deep so no real harm having that many

[true trench]

Ya their stacked

[versed valley]

For like 3days yes (from prapor)

[past river]

just a waste of cash sat there imo

[true trench]

ya that's what I'm starting to think.

[brittle canyon]

depends on how often you die and how comfortable you are with money

[past river]

5 is the tops for me i used to have loads but they never got touched so i just sold them.

[robust robin]

I insure big bags and just drop them before pvp and get them back loads of times

[past river]

the t20 etc? they worth keeping for sure, the berkuts are ten a penny though

[brittle canyon]

t20 is 33k

if you can afford t20s the 5x4 bag stack should go tbh

[versed valley]

Also use daypacks over berkuts and scav bp if possible, they are the lightest

[robust robin]

I usually use the tasmanian tiger bag because its so cheap for its size, also really big space

70k for 35 slots is mad

[merry swift]

Aye

Bit heavy but good bag

[robust robin]

Compared to attack 2 its really light

New weight limit makes heavy kits good

[merry swift]

Yea I mean that's some comparison right there lmao

[robust robin]

And also just run injector case with mules and props

[merry swift]

Attack 2 weighs an absolute ton

[true trench]

when you insure a bag/rig do you get the items back that were in it or whats left after someone looted?

[merry swift]

Nope

Just the bag

[true trench]

damn k

[merry swift]

Would be OP as fuck if it were otherwise

You would just be able to dump your bag in the river full of goodies n get them out the easy way

[true trench]

ya your right didn't even think about it

[robust robin]

Yewh attack 2 is useless now, more expensive barter and heavier than the tasmanian bag

[bold kernel]

can i buy injector cases on flea?

[elfin elm]

yes, for a pretty penny

[past river]

gunsmith part for the vector build

but i didnt pay over the odds for mine as it unlocks eventually so people dont mind waiting

part9/10 if i remeber right

[spare violet]

can anyone help me? I want to do some quests on interchange but don't know the map well

[past river]

part 11 sorry, yeah will take a while. but being 1 slot its not hard to stash. but cheap enough to replace when needed

[past river]

practice mode is you best buddy for map learning

we dont mention that here as heard it can lead to bans

[delicate canyon]

yes

[past river]

as its against the tos of eft etc (just what i heard previously)

im just relaying what i seen poeple mention previously when others have bought it up

[brittle canyon]

uncheck exclude barter

and also use required search

the vector gunsmith pretty much only has 1 or 2 solutions so you have to get the full range of different mods with no flexibility, they’re all trader lv3 locked

so you can either wait for trader 3s or buy the mods at exorbitant prices

[bold kernel]

okay! because idk how to get all those stuff like injector cases and docs and S.I.C.C

[brittle canyon]

correct, maximum profit price is 154500

for a return of 62049 after taxes

but you can always use barters

[delicate canyon]

you were so close

[elfin elm]

all have barter trades at varying lvl of traders

some can be found in a raid in VERY rare instances

[brittle canyon]

sicc is barter only at jaeg 4, it never spawns inraid

[delicate canyon]

after they culled the marked rooms

[bold kernel]

ahh thanks! because i seen ppl have them early game

so i was confused sometimes

docs and injector cases i mean

[elfin elm]

they usually buy them/barter for them

[versed valley]

You will get locked at rsaas which you need pk3 for anyway so i would just wait

[brittle canyon]

injector case is reward for picking therapist on chemical pt4

[bold kernel]

chemical part 4?

[versed valley]

Reserve drawers/jackets?

[brittle canyon]

shoreline village hit the jackets and pray no one did that before you

[robust robin]

Dorms, you have the dedicated key spawn and the other 20+ jackete

Tbh dorms is safe most the time as player scav

[versed valley]

You can do it on reserve via sewer, drawer drop decant amount if keys

[brittle canyon]

big bag but segmented I think

[robust robin]

Yeah its ok

[brittle canyon]

so kinda awkward but still big

[robust robin]

Not as bad as mechanism

[elfin elm]

segmented bags are slept on for loot runs tbf

where you get a shit ton of small slot items

segmented bags with give you more total space usually per ruble than un-segmented on flea

so if you just need raw space, and are looting lots of small items

mechanism is actually pretty good

yep, that's rep

more trading slots for posting items

but you gotta GRIND for that shit

yep

you need like 30 rep though for your next slot

[robust robin]

Yes every 50k ruble sold on flea = 0.01 flea rep

Which is absurd

[elfin elm]

arrow means if they most recently gained or lost rep

not if it's positive or negative

[robust robin]

Yeah you can lose rep if you cancel items sold

[elfin elm]

take things down prematurely or don't sell within your post timer

yessir

sure thing

[delicate canyon]

put up an item for a few million then cancel it and die

[elfin elm]

pretty much

don't forget there are posting fees

limits super-inflation as well

there's an internal behind the scenes value for what the game thinks something is supposed to be worth

and the further away from that number you are the harder it is to profit from price inflation

hence why if you have an item that nobody else is posting, don't just shoot for the stars chief

[robust robin]

And barters dont have a high commission, so thats why you see so many items up for barter

[elfin elm]

that and bulk posts have reduced posting fees

[delicate canyon]

Certain keys got their base price upped which is why you can see marked keys no longer for barter only

[versed valley]

214, directors

Gas safe

Idk about the danex and shoreline ones but other dorms keys are bad for loot but some are quest needed

[dusty mortar]

is a items case worth the around 200k therapist barter to put armor and stuff into it?

[versed valley]

Items case costs about 2mil

[dusty mortar]

this is like 350k

right?

34

hm okay

[mighty lagoon]

Lvl 35 private clinic

[versed valley]

Optalmoscopes itself are 80k

X20 thats 1.6mil already

[mighty lagoon]

Fir ledx and oscope

I think

Cant wait to hoard my stuff in that thicc case

Thats better

[dusty mortar]

looked wrong on flea then

my bad

the ledxs arent with me

[mighty lagoon]

Haha Nice me to!

[dusty mortar]

I have hit resort a few times with no luck

in the emercom thing?

[mighty lagoon]

I found mine in a medical airdrop

While scavving lol

[dusty mortar]

lucky

still looking for the military battery

which sucks

I want to use the ash-12

I dont care how good it is, it looks fun

[delicate canyon]

I found mine on a scav run on light, got greedy and ran out of time

[merry swift]

Its really good.

[versed valley]

Same but they removed ps12b from traders

Legit my fav gun

[merry swift]

Lighthouse or reserve for tank bats

[delicate canyon]

ash-12 without PS12B is dog

[dusty mortar]

ah damn

[merry swift]

For sure

[dusty mortar]

PS12A is shit

[elfin elm]

I think there's another in the downstairs med place

[merry swift]

But ps12b is sick tho

[delicate canyon]

ps12 is shit

[elfin elm]

can't remember the name

[merry swift]

Can craft it but its kind of a shit craft

[raven quarry]

ew

[placid canyon]

ew

[merry swift]

Using silenced ash-12, wtf

[elfin elm]

post a note there then, the devs read those

[merry swift]

Disgustang

[elfin elm]

still

[merry swift]

Maybe duffelbag?

[versed valley]

Make them hear the ask12 roar

[merry swift]

They can spawn in duffels on inter

[versed valley]

At the start of this wipe a found a gpu in a duffle on factory

[merry swift]

Yea duffels are based on map loot table

Can spawn anything

Well almost anything

No I blame you

Take it off

[versed valley]

Remove it imiedietly

[merry swift]

It is now

Imma call the ash-12 police

[versed valley]

So do it

Nice

[merry swift]

Okokok

[versed valley]

Put muzzle on for drip tho

You have to buy it from flea

[dusty mortar]

I also have one laying around, I was more worried about the ammo

But since PS12B is now crafting only ig

Thats worthless

[merry swift]

Fun fact: the silenced ash-12 barter is profitable if you buy components from flea and sell the ash-12 to mechanic.
This is because nobody in their right mind runs that shit silenced.

Not for access

The coloured ones are unlimited use

[versed valley]

Access is the white one

[delicate canyon]

Over my dead body

[versed valley]

The blue one (white one with blue marking) is one use for a room

Yea

[delicate canyon]

access ones

[versed valley]

Only 5?

Pathetic

[delicate canyon]

Quest one

[merry swift]

wdym

you got 2.7m

that aint broke

youre lvl 16 with 2.7m thats way more than I had at your level

Yea idk why you complain

[elfin elm]

I found 6 gpus in the first 5 days of this wipe

[merry swift]

You dont progress for shit because you scav so much but you're not poor

[elfin elm]

only got 3 out FIR though, lol

other 3 are farm only ;-;

[merry swift]

how are you lvl 16 then

Fair

Lucky on the ledx then

[elfin elm]

armor, ammo, guns

usually

[merry swift]

hideout

quests

[delicate canyon]

Im yet to find a LEDx

[elfin elm]

guns are usually 150 or less

[merry swift]

I usually pump all my cash into hideout and tasking level 1-30

[raven quarry]

wher armour

[elfin elm]

unless you're throwing money at stuff you don't need yet

[delicate canyon]

Ive spent like 20m on hideout since beginning of wipe, not even waiting for prices to go down

[raven quarry]

ah yup

[merry swift]

Its worth if you level hideout real early

Cause you make it back through crafts

[elfin elm]

not running crafts?

tsk

[delicate canyon]

Work soon so can't run without wasting too much fuel

[elfin elm]

gotta pump those numbers up

[elfin elm]

do long duration crafts then

[merry swift]

Mine looks pretty similar, just got btc farm 2 to go with it

[delicate canyon]

well heres the problem, the long crafts are too long or crap, and the short crafts are too short or crap kekw

im not running crafts just for the sake of them

[elfin elm]

hideout forces a semi-linear progression

[merry swift]

Just run crafts for good ammo

workbench crafts are worth

[elfin elm]

just build everything you can, with a bigger focus on crafting stations

[merry swift]

lavatory is okay

rest not really worth

water/booze always worth ofc

[delicate canyon]

"a bit"

[elfin elm]

they're all pretty much worth it

except nutrition

[delicate canyon]

Bruh, the +10energy tho

[elfin elm]

nutrition can suck my ass

it gives good benefits, but the crafts suck in nutrition

[raven quarry]

what in the 2 ledexes

[delicate canyon]

I just run the whiskey one all the time

[hardy fox]

Is it worth it?

[elfin elm]

lavatory, workbench, and med station

[merry swift]

Im talking crafts

[merry swift]

Int centre has nothing good

[hardy fox]

People say the hot rods but I use my super water to make moonshine

[merry swift]

Medical is peanuts in terms of profit

[elfin elm]

scav timer

[delicate canyon]

then why would you mention rest...

[merry swift]

scav timer isnt a craft

[raven quarry]

requisites too

[merry swift]

because the rest has crafts too

[delicate canyon]

No

[elfin elm]

nobody said anything about crafts being the only important thing

[delicate canyon]

it doesn't

[merry swift]

wdym not only workbench has crafts, rest has crafts too

medical, nutrition, lavatory, int centre etc

[elfin elm]

if you can keep about 1 mil you'll be fine for operating costs

[raven quarry]

int center?

[delicate canyon]

You're saying rest as in the rest, not rest space

got it

[raven quarry]

im lost

ik what crafts

[elfin elm]

I know players who live with like 300k at all times, and anything they get more than that gets re-invested in tasks and hideout

[merry swift]

dw they're all terrible

[raven quarry]

oh wtf was i thinking of

[delicate canyon]

correction

[elfin elm]

you pick how broke you want to operate at

[merry swift]

int centre crafts dont become interesting until you're halfway through lightkeeper questline

[elfin elm]

do one station at a time and see where your money sits

[delicate canyon]

Int 3 crafts are good but good luck getting to them

[merry swift]

Which most players will never get to

[merry swift]

Not really tho

[elfin elm]

I gotta sleep now

lvatory 2 is goated

[merry swift]

You can craft a bunch of quest items in lavatory 2

i'd get it

[elfin elm]

lot of it's most valuable crafts are 2

[delicate canyon]

RFID and VPX crafts were one of the most profitable crafts you could do tho they take a while

changed this wipe tho

[merry swift]

Questlocked

Not int3, you need LK questline

[elfin elm]

flashdrives are important at least

[delicate canyon]

VPX still the same but needs lightkeeper

[elfin elm]

though less so now

[merry swift]

Those are int 2

[elfin elm]

yes, but still validates the intel as not useless, lol

[merry swift]

Ig. For quests sure, for profit its all bad

[elfin elm]

valuable selling crafts

[merry swift]

Workbench is nice for good ammo, you'll want that lvl 3 eventually

[elfin elm]

true, but if you're progressing through hideout anyways and are running a different station's crafts for profit, why not craft in them all?

[merry swift]

Because the int center crafts are a net loss

Just buy those, backpack crafts are all expensive

Ragman sells em as you level

[elfin elm]

med station is slow and consistent money but nothing to write home about, nutrition is kinda there for the passive bonuses and getting a bit of change on the side

[elfin elm]

only way to get pilgrims consistently now though

if you want pilgrims

[raven quarry]

eww

much

[elfin elm]

a lot

[delicate canyon]

IDK what the hell you were crafting but they were most definetly not a net loss

[merry swift]

You just need one of those tho so nbd

[merry swift]

Which one isnt

[elfin elm]

well some people like running them

[elfin elm]

not me mind you, but they're out there

[merry swift]

No for a quest

[raven quarry]

me with 2 raid bags

[elfin elm]

keep one found in raid then you can use the rest no scot

[merry swift]

Yea when they were the cheapest slot/price ratio but with the craft being the only way to get them I'm not sure thats true anymore

[raven quarry]

5h craft'

ehhh for 1 backpack

[elfin elm]

still pretty much the biggest backpacks outside of attack 2, which is even worse, and the raid, which is almost unobtanium

[merry swift]

You can buy tasmanian backpack for 70k

Right

Yes

[elfin elm]

one thing you learn about hideout crafts is opportunities costs

[merry swift]

Same amount of slots as the pilgrim

ragman 3 sells for 70k

[elfin elm]

always run the craft that makes you the msot money unless you're making a task item, or getting something you can only get through crafts

[merry swift]

sling or t20 I guess

There is a mechanic barter idk how good that is

Yea it is

Earlier you buy the gpus the better

[elfin elm]

cus if you could do a 150k bp craft that takes 2 hours say, or run 2 crafts that make you 100k per hour which is more worthwhile?

[merry swift]

If you buy btc farm lvl 1 + 10gpu's today, you will be profitable in 30 days. If you already have some gpus that time goes down

[elfin elm]

you need 3 FIR for a task, rest are btc farm

[merry swift]

40 days including btc farm cost sorry

I mean if you play this game a lot and are constantly crafting its basically free money

[elfin elm]

even sooner if you're running crafts

[merry swift]

But its not a huge deal

I played last wipe without one

Doesnt matter too much

[merry cedar]

anyone here who has the customs office key and wants to do the prapor mission? Id gladly accompany (missing the key)

[merry swift]

I think you should focus on leveling up at lvl 16 rather than hideout maxing

[merry cedar]

yup

[merry swift]

Stuff like gym, btc farm and whatnot is not something you -need- at lvl 16

[elfin elm]

even at lvl 1 stations, you can buy ingredients and do crafts and you'll profit still

[merry cedar]

I know but I dont have the items and Im lvl 10

not Interchange D:

[elfin elm]

scav run it then

no risk

[merry cedar]

how did I not think of that

[elfin elm]

from doing like 4 wipes it can take like 7 on bad runs

but usually it's reaaal fast

[hardy fox]

I would say you might find it open but now probably not

[elfin elm]

oh, and you can buy those crackers at lvl 1 therapist

[hardy fox]

No one goes there

[elfin elm]

cheap

[merry cedar]

squash I have already

just missing the ice tea then if you can my crackers

[violet crystal]

SO WORTH

[elfin elm]

squash and green ice have about the same drop rate

you just got unlucky

[merry cedar]

damn

[delicate canyon]

Just go on a singles goshan run and you'll most like find all the items

[elfin elm]

assuming you get lucky on spawns that's not actually too bad

[delicate canyon]

exceopt crackers

[violet crystal]

its a daily

[elfin elm]

might be worth it maybe

[elfin elm]

yeah only this part

other half is toolboxes and duffles

[merry cedar]

alright Ill try my best to find it. Cant find my way around on Interchange yet tho

[elfin elm]

the entire back hallway of goshan is great scaving areas

[merry cedar]

bigger problem is inside xd

alright

[twin pine]

can anyone advise why there is an additional slot for stock?

[bold kernel]

help I cannot find Outskirts Extract on Woods

where am I on map

look at where I am and show me where I am on map pls

this is behind me

where do I go

[oblique sable]

u are here

[bold kernel]

omg I am all the way there

O_O ???

[oblique sable]

yea

which extracts do you have

[oblique sable]

rip

[merry swift]

Idk if you can make that

[oblique sable]

i hate woods

always get the extracts that are across the map

[elfin elm]

it's always opposite extractions relative to spawn

[bold kernel]

WTF MINE FIELD?????

[oblique sable]

ah

[bold kernel]

bro I thought I was gong towards Outskrirst

wtf is this mine field

[oblique sable]

yea if you go to much to the side

[elfin elm]

entire left side of map is mines

that's the out of bounds area

[elfin elm]

not on a pmc run

;)

look at his sleeve

that's a pmc

you can run whatever guns you want on pmc vs scav, but you can't fake the clothes

clothes

like, garments under the rigs and shit

[bold kernel]

well... gg

[oblique sable]

unlcuky bro

[bold kernel]

killed like 20 scavs and got lost... fucking stupid map

[elfin elm]

good progress though, good try

scavs can't get that flannel

[oblique sable]

i recommend having the map opened in the background and check where you are every 2-3 minutes

until u know the map

[bold kernel]

yeah that's a good idea.
The thing is bro I thought I was in the lower part of the map, since I Crossed the street already, with those power cabel things

[elfin elm]

pro tip btw, if this happens again, and you KNOW you can't make it; toss your shit on the ground, MIA doesn't give insurance but if it's on the GROUND it does

[bold kernel]

and suddenly I'm back up again O_O

woods is fucking confusing

yeah, tossed everything

do people farm injectors or just buy em? also where do i get morphine

[elfin elm]

that's why players like that flannel

that, and flannel daddy

[wet sky]

look at the pants

[oblique sable]

medical bags

[elfin elm]

buy

[oblique sable]

i only know if its a pmc when he shots me

[elfin elm]

that road with the power cables runs through like half the map

live and learn

[bold kernel]

mantis?

[oblique sable]

mantis on interchange

[bold kernel]

Yep, will have to. I'm running Woods only until I get those fucking long range leg shot kills

[elfin elm]

you're on the wrong map buddy, sorry

[wet sky]

pants what color and shit, if it too hard to look at the chest to easily determine if scav or pmc

[bold kernel]

wdym dude?

[twin pine]

can anyone advise why there is an additional stock slot?

[wet sky]

[elfin elm]

shoreline has the longest sight lines, and static spawn sniper scavs, woods takes second place for that kind of task

[wet sky]

stock pad?

[elfin elm]

yeah, it's the buttpad

[bold kernel]

this is what I'm trying to do bro @elfin elm

get on that rock and snipe scavs from it

[elfin elm]

only do that on pmc runs pls

[bold kernel]

so far I did the headshots

but I gotta do leg shots now, but it keeps spawning me on "WhereTheFuckIam" locations on Woods...

[elfin elm]

too rng imo, both for sccav spawns and your own spawn

[bold kernel]

I tried climbing the bigass rock in the middle of the map too, but there's some sniper scav with automatic rifle that 1taps me

[wet sky]

yeah dont be like me, -1 scav rep (saved now)

[bold kernel]

wtf how did u get -1 rep

[wet sky]

kill scavs

[elfin elm]

sniper scav don't move, so make great targets for leg shots

I did that task in one run on shoreline

on 2 snipers sitting on the same rock

[bold kernel]

sounds good. Mosin with pu 3.5 ?

[wet sky]

vpo works too

[elfin elm]

I did the gornostay with an acog

[wet sky]

I did the vpo w iron sights

[bold kernel]

aah cool

[wet sky]

neutral

[elfin elm]

cus you can suppress it, and you're killing scavs anyways

it's great that it's neutral too, cus you can farm them in sav runs ;)

[lone moss]

I finish the pocket watch quest done and I was wondering what I should do bc I keep getting killed before I get there in have tried doing night but I still get killed

[elfin elm]

you rushing it?

[lone moss]

Iv tried sprinting off spawn and waiting till like 15 mins left in raid

[elfin elm]

you usually want to get there after everybody else

walking, while on high alert

[lone moss]

Ya so should I wait till 10 mins in a night raid

[elfin elm]

really, just hit it when you pass by it

and spend the majority of the raid walking and taking your time

[wet sky]

running makes alot of sound so just walk as a base rule

[lone moss]

That is the only thing im going in for I spent like 200rub on kits and healing last night

[wet sky]

200k?

[lone moss]

Ya

[wet sky]

I wish

It was that cheap

[elfin elm]

also, learn the pmc rotation paths

[wet sky]

and spawns

[elfin elm]

^

[wet sky]

use map genie

[lone moss]

Ya but most was out of my stash I spent 200k on an extra 2 kits and healing

[elfin elm]

also a tip is when tasking, scav off cooldown

it help prevent death spiraling

[wet sky]

I just do hatchet runs on interchange when I die too much

quite fun

[elfin elm]

where your wallet basically commits suicide and you don't have a good mental for your next run

[wet sky]

mine does that on a daily basis

[elfin elm]

a looot of this game is mental

[lone moss]

Ya I do I go to factory or interchange depending on quest and what I need in general

[hardy fox]

I love and hated interchange

[wet sky]

the lighting is shit

[hardy fox]

The spawns and extracts suck dick

[wet sky]

like pure dogshit

[elfin elm]

it's gotten better at least

[wet sky]

very much yes

yep

[lone moss]

Same I've lost 3 gpu's this wipe to extract campers

[wet sky]

I use the thing trey talked about in his last video it helps ALOT

[elfin elm]

but are also simple, and approachable

[wet sky]

no need for post fx

[hardy fox]

I’ve lost 1 but a shit ton of spare guns and gear from players

[elfin elm]

trey is kinda biased

[wet sky]

in what sense?

[elfin elm]

he's the kinda guy to run an adar with flesh rounds and no stock at 150 meters away and get a head, eyes on somebody while he has the fx cranked to crayons colors and crosshair painted on the center of his screen and then go "WOOOO! see guys, anybody can do it"

[radiant maple]

Can gpus be found in customs or should i try a different map?

[lone moss]

Yes but rare

[elfin elm]

interchange

like 4 shops can spawn them

[twin pine]

is that easily attainable? im level 8 with barely any quests done

[elfin elm]

it's locked behind a gunsmith task, can't remember which one

and then also prapor 2

buuut, it spawns a lot of scav guns

so check fence

you find it on shitty aks-74u scav guns he has all the time

[wet sky]

locked behind gs part 6

scope is worth

[elfin elm]

scope is shit

[wet sky]

yes

but worth a lil bit

nothing game changing

[elfin elm]

I like umkas for the 2x2, but everything else is a sell

unless ap rounds

[lone moss]

Keep the body armor

[wet sky]

yes

[lone moss]

It's ok to

[elfin elm]

I always keep everything if I have the stash space, and then just sell the junk

[wet sky]

^

[elfin elm]

free money

[lone moss]

Shuld I get eod iv got like 200 hours in the game and really enjoy it

[wet sky]

yes

[elfin elm]

if you can afford it

[lone moss]

Ok

[elfin elm]

if you can't, just go up one tier

[elfin elm]

you pay the difference between versions so you can piece-meal it if you want

[wet sky]

not in sweden

[elfin elm]

BIGGEST benefit to EOD, that you can NOT grind for

[wet sky]

:)

[elfin elm]

is gamma container

gl with that

[wet sky]

takes time

[elfin elm]

takes too much time

[wet sky]

gamma is instant and 3 less slots

[elfin elm]

yep, now go grab the care package in-game

they send you the new shit through the messanger

[wet sky]

wrong guy

lol

[elfin elm]

woops

the mdr is great

[wet sky]

mdr is goated

[elfin elm]

made a mistake

[wet sky]

big L

mdr hella cheap to mod

[elfin elm]

if you have money and want to throw it at a gun, sure the m4 can be better

but the mdr needs literally any suppressor, a random foregrip, and a sight

and boom, done

for less than half the cost usually

[hardy fox]

Mdr is cheap and has no recoil

[wet sky]

thats like 70k tops to mod mdr

[elfin elm]

especially after the horizontal buff

[hardy fox]

M4 are like 150k + to mod

[elfin elm]

rogue m4s can be pretty meh

[wet sky]

you can get a decent m4 form mechanic barter

[elfin elm]

to pretty alright

[wet sky]

for like 140k

[lone moss]

150k isn't to bad
