Shot scav hope for splint

hell ¨nah
legit nothing to lose
One extract away for 0.25

I'm at max traders and not really pushing past that, I think I just wana kill people until wipe then push kappa next time
My rep is 0.25 scav. My friend with - Got better loot than me keycards, heals etc. Why?
gotcha
only trades
nods is best barter
O appreciate, I'll set some of those specific tags aside for that
anyone know the woods cache run to make $$$
wao
Ty

im not a fan
take too long
id rather figure stuff out myself too lel
I did but i am still trying to get that tarkov magic when you opened the game for forst time
idk i have too much stuff
If you dont want your loot just gime
I need it more
Bro you have 80 mil
I Will send toes
And lvl 80
Lvl 15 with shit loot But thicc toes
Pm leg meta
counter to m4
dog
Squid?
I love you
Ok.
I mean what
ill be on in the evening
work, then family stuff yk
what does breathing is independent of energy mean
if you’re at zero energy it won’t make your aiming wonky
also stamina drain won’t cause it either
looking for help. new to tarkov and dont know what im doing any help would be great.
where to find fuel conditioner?
!wiki fuel conditioner
Fuel conditioner (FCond) is an item in Escape from Tarkov.
General data
Flammable material
1.8 kg
1x2
Effects
Generic loot item
Spawns mostly in tech crates
And sometimes as loose loot, rarely in cashes, sports bags and dead scavs
Sell it
For me view distance ( pretty sure players still render even out of render distance) and shadows
Depends how you play
Post fx can make a difference based on monitor and map choice
Any newbies want some help with tasks or anything? DM me
any new players?
me
Smt like woods?
What about monitor?
what spot should i look for propane at
loose spawns everywhere, airdrops
took me 2 weeks to find 1 propane :D
where
Does the quest Long Line (30 kills in mall) count if you kill PMCs under the mall in the parking lot?
No
@violet adder @frosty musk who lyin
prolly the one whos 20 levels away from the task
the lvl 19 tho played interchange twice
nahhh no way
he just like me fr
idk how im going to get 30 kills interchange honestly
prolly harder than the goons
just dont do it
gg ez
kappa mfw
Playing ic
u never get those
Okay
🤨 pardon
What
Wdym?
Huh
just read it again
no context
aint even realise until you said it
yo dumbass has school
rude smh
Go to bed cinn
rr
ion know if ill be able to play on the weekend either
my girlfriend is coming over
any new people need help>?
haven’t played the game in a couple months is it still full with hackers?😄
when is it not lol
no
which is better? th green or the red
idk about the armor fractions in tarkov
also im talking about protection
green
yes
you sure? because thats not how fractions work
who cares how fractions work lmao
bigger number —> better
bigger number mean more armor points
i see i see
more armor points means more bullets to break it
Most cheaters avoid players
You compare current dur to max dur of the armor not the current max dur
But armor damaged 50% wont protect 50% less, its more like 30% or so
So which one? green or red
uhuh
what about it
it has higher fractions
As i said you compare current dur to max dur of the armor
So second number doesnt matter
Like max dur of the fresh armor not current max dur
Usually
we have had 2 obvious cheaters in 2 days tho lol
ooh i see
I havent met a single obvious one this week, i dont play as much so thats probably why
So its 41.8>41.1/47*
For the amount of raids we play that’s aight and also uncommon
Now its corrected
Yea most of them avoid you and just vacuum up loot for rmt and shit
Like wtf prone in a bush with meta m4 using m993?
yeah its over
the crabs are getting the best of us
anyone new want some help? im free
i agree
duh men when you on
Smoking rn gimme a min
Aint it always day?
I see that, thanks for the info
when ever I try to choose my nickname it says that an invalid nickname
Someone has it I think
no bc i tried swaping some letters for numbers and it still says invalid nickname
Idk then
Old station
thanks
Its scav only
is there any way i can contact a developer or moderator?
already died w/it
damn
Don't sulk over anything
i'd cry
i third partied him as a scav i think lol
is it a good gun im asking
Yes
It's the best bolt action in the game
Why is this a thing
camper
Is that literally from sitting? Or what
Crab?
Hello, when BGS does posts like this, when do the mentioned changes get in effect? With the next wipe?
effective immediately
Oh, I never saw any patch installed or so.
Thanks for the info!
what gun
THen you need to shoot legs
I mean the damage is all awful too
kedr
Yeah damage
ite
yep, campers get fatigue
bsg's way to counter camping
get that from running on constantly low stamina and being fat
No you dont, you get the same debuff, but its a fraction of the effect and a fraction of the duration
Yeah but the one I got is absurdly potent and lasts the entire raid
Which is what confused me I never had anything like this.
kinda funny
The effect is so strong, it makes you lose full energy in a couple minutes, and my metabolism is maxed
thats why bring your lunchbox when camping
yes it's worth good money
Should I sell it or keep it
You can always check https://tarkov-market.com/item/bulbex_cable_cutter to see if something is needed for a task or if it would sell better to traders or on flea
Bulbex cable cutter - price monitoring, charts, price history, fee, crafts, barters
Yes
Thanks
You can see on that link that it's not needed for any tasks, the only hideout node it's needed in is generator 2 (don't worry about saving for anything level 2 until you get flea market), and you'd barely make any profit selling on the flea - so best just to sell to Therapist
One shot of this killed me in the arm?
Yep, KS-23
Can one tap within 10 meters if it hits a limb
Aren’t arms unprotected
Or anything unarmoured
Thats so stupid
It's pretty balanced - gun and ammo aren't very easy to get, low capacity, very slow reload, and you need to be very close
It would fuck you up in real life too
its banned irl :P
Shooting me in the arm wouldnt kill me outright
You should feel my pain when I unloaded a AK clip on someone and they didn’t die
A 4 gauge shotgun might literally blow it off, which is pretty much the same thing gameplay wise
I know I was just making a point
There were 2 people, I killed one and the second one killed me, which is always a sad situation for a solo
how many gpus i need for the quest mechanic quest agian
You think I can kill a npc scav??
I need to kill 5 for one of my tasks
Oh for sure
I'd at the least bring some heals in your Alpha container for bleeds (bandage and tourniquet) and a painkiller for broken limbs (all very cheap) in case you get shot
some extra ammo would probably go a long way 
Also always insure your stuff, especially at low levels
Goddamn the return time is 24 hours??
I'd grab a tourniqet as well - you should have some of those pink circles called esmarchs
Yea, but it builds up fast. And then you get on the next day and you have an entire second inventory of insurance stuff to use
very worth
Should I insure my mags too
Early on, just insure everything
Even if you just sell it when you get it back - it's profit
And you'll get low-tier stuff like that back ~100% of the time
Is playing woods at night safer
Playing anywhere at night is "safer" as there's less people to run into. But you also can't see nearly as well, which adds danger.
If you know the map really well, night can be great for safe raids. If you don't know the map really well, I'd avoid it until you do
if you pay extra with therapist its 8 hours
scavving is a great way to make loads of money - but there's not much you can do with money if you don't have your traders leveled up at all - and you can really only level them up when you're playing as a PMC. So make sure you strike a balance
Definitely can
I'd just make sure you utilize cover
And peak on the right
shoulder swapping is going to be such a game changer
And if they don't see you or aren't shooting you and you think you have the time, try to line up a headshot
Yeah
pvp will be so much less predictable
Oh no. Am i a bad person for killing a Timmi as a scav?
Sort of
It's okay, it's the nature of Tarkov.
To be fair he startet shooting at me. I only wanted the airdrop xD
how would you possibly know
that he is playing his first raid ever
@pastel scaffold did this tho
i needed it for calibration too
: -(
So new patch came out, if possible could someone give me a quick run-down on the most important bits
People have been saying yes and no - not sure yet
are 30 MP7 mags better than the 20 rounders?
more > less
im lv 19 what pistol can i use for stirrup
if you want, you can try APS pistol with hollow points and leg people.
easiest way for people with bad aim to get something done
I'd suggest the five-seven, USP, or the Shrimp if you're determined
It's cheap and it's mostly RNG to ur fragment
First time doing lighthouse quests. How do I do water plant quests with all the rogues? Do I have to kill them? Im a used
Usec
nope
i still see the bug
https://streamable.com/ljbdzo so close man
im lv13
holy pog i have 1500hrs on labs and i havent seen anyone done this lmfao
Got em this time
you did that?
hell nah
3 leddy u must be trippin
not gonna happen g
rewards suck too
i need to try max immunity next wipe
crisis should give like 5 mil to make it a decent quest
immunity is so hard to max tho
u underestimate how lazy i am :p
i maxed endurance recently and its silly
lmao
which one is going to provide me with better protection in pvp? ik that the zhuk is one class higher but its kinda low durability and its ceramic so im not really sure
gen4
that zhuk is about to crumble g
alr got it
thanks
is the zhuk even worth using at this point or should i just vendor it and buy something else?
personally id sell it
it is
wtf use it ofc its worth using
even tough its fucked
it spawns 75
does it?
ye
turns out id only get like 70k if i sold it so its definitely worth using instead of selling
that is the most dreadfull piece of gear in the game
agreed lol
just get a kill w it and take his armor
is that the tt sk rig?
yeah thats it
yes
4 2x1s or something
you can barely have meds in it
takes one bullet and the rig is gone
true
i m sad i have to become this player but i m going into the trees
... uh what
i think theyre talking about tree ratting on customs
yeah i m broke
i have to become one with the tree
i can show you a good d2 spot instead
I know what to change it to
advance even further into rat hierary instantly
nah
i just want some money cause i m down to 80k ;-;
update
i died
to duo that rushed me in the house where intel spawns
what lvl are ou
yes
it happens
scave live dont mathere
28 i m trying to get to lvl 30 but i got stopped by being broke
but change of plans i m going into woods with a thermal and a red flair
you can do 1 ointerchage run as a scave and make 400k
sel it on the flee you makemillions more
how with magic or what
or scav anywhere else and make actual money!!!!!
400k is nothing lmao
yeah u can go to light house and grab stuff off of rouges and loot high tier loot spawns or go to customs and loot repair kits but for all of that u need luck ;-;
you can make 1mil+ consistently with stashes as long as you have decantly sized bag
loot the teck stores or loot the green side and finde water filters 130k eacher
which stim/stims cure poison from cultist
i know blue blood does
i dced as i found gl ;-;
i swear if a cultist stabs me while i m dced or something 💀
and a 3rd disconnect i love ig
it*
made it back and extracted successfully
any1 down to run w a low level and do pvp. not new just started late. naw nae
Hi all, just started Tarkov with a friend a few days ago. Whats best to focus on in the beginning. We only played interchange so far
Quests
They're the biggest source of xp
Just fully commit on quests rather then get some weapons and make some money during raids? Im still trying to figure out a lot haha
Having a big amount of money pre flea isn't really useful since the level 1 traders don't have anything expensive
You can do scav raids between every pmc to make sure you don't lose money on a death
dont play ic
worst map in the game
wrong
any low level need help?
yes please lool
What trader buys keys???
therapist
shes not buying them??
What map is good for start?
Woods and customs are good
Since a bunch of early tasks are on them
We are lost in woods 😂
shoreline is the worst map in the game
me and a friend are going into a woods run for a quest anyone free to help guide etc we're eu can voice
i like resort pvp
customs and woods
no you don't
???
have they fixed the flashlight bug this morning patch?
lol no
lol yes
shut the fuck up temt em
when will you stop saying that
🤓
bros lvl 19

im not 26
ok
labs even
thats too many numbers for me
go on temmi
say what you want to say
probably too young
they play night shoreline though
wanna run some tomorrow
ill see, i got work tomorrow
why is there no compass or map in the game getting my ass handed to me on woods trying to find this camp lool
u can get a compass
or use map genie
u wat
Ive made 2 mil so far 😭
from cultists?
just overall
i made 0 mil cus ive been spamming labs lmao
thats just
haven't lost too much
Im dissapointed

i wouldnt say its the best map
but i dont mind it
sean W
wtf
sean taking mad Ws
interchange is like labs with no entry fee
obviously minus the loot
and the pvp isnt as good
but its comparable in some ways
fr
i used to main ic
rip
cough cough
veikka
probably havent played it for anything but tasking
hey, just got the game and lookin for someone to teach me how to play
anyone be up for that?
okay, sorry
youre good
uncommon Sean L
it is either full of rats or a 5 man squad
More in IC tho
bcs ragman questers are scared camping everything
yeah enjoy the empty ass store
ive gotten so many gpus outside of pcs on ic
and tetriz and bitcoin
its only issue was lighting
and its good now
didnt people used to play ic alot?
sadly
bcs it actually had good loot
shit now
resort has better
even factory has better
for sure
Litearlly ic players
the only issue with that build is the stock 😭
never seen that stock
26 recoil tbf
iv turned from scaving in custom, to woods
i need a budget rsass build
budget
hi im new and i need someone to teach me the game
whats that m4 😭
ok gang wrap it up, we'll find the enemy tangos next raid, roll out alpha omega squad
one sec, i sent one yesterday
@astral barn glubby <3
what does MOA stands for ?
thx

wish me luck, I need one more pmc kill at less than 25m
Whats the best way of doing this again? is it take mayo, then pop a propital while camped in a bush and wait
Would someone be kind enough to help me complete my tasks on shoreline (lvl 21 NewPlayer)
mayo n walk to extract
gg ez
I did this on woods. Walked to the extract, ate the mayo, then waited and heald myself
Which tasks?
scrap metal, health care privacy, and courtisy visit
shoreline 4
Any timmies need help? @ me
would anyone be interested in helping me get scav kills on customs and helping complete a couple tasks
Hey guys! So, i just completed The Huntsman Path - Eraser - Part 1...and the next quest Part 2 says "locked - requires lvl 30" however i am lvl 41. Any idea what im missing?
99% sure it's secured perimeter
If you haven't completed that task yet make sure you do
thanks Shep! Looking to see if ive done it yet or not
so based on the quest tree...wounded beast turns into cold blooded / tough guy / secured perimeter. I only have cold blooded right now
@valid prawn u still around?
@meager hedge yessir
Spread not drop
Accuracy stat, lower is better
@valid prawn in lfg beginner 2
can zariyachi have labs keycards ?
mb lol
@meager hedge im in there
Click on the link above that text they have a helpful little infographic
@snow jewel
idk what im talking bout
i just read stuff from google n repeat it :P
@meager hedge you still around?
all good
@snow jewel dont use that cause ul end up missing ur shots lol
Just learn what guns dont have drop like dmrs u just aim and shoot at the head
Apparently I'm missing 1 ergo but I followed everything on the guide I'm not sure if I'm stupid or what
This is Gunsmith part 14
?
use what?
That moa thing
ik lol
@fallow knot bolt?
I'm good. Rear sight.
it was just the rear sight problem.
Cool
yo whats a good budget ak 101 build?
lfg duo or trio to get some money with scav and pmc, i prefer woods. but i know customs, shorline, factory, and some of reserve and interchange. its okay if your new im only level 25. any age I’m 16, 420 friendly dm if interested
tarkov moa is calculated differently
it’s actually double what it tells you
what map should I go with this goofy mpx
Go to the mall
thats 2 restocks worth of lasers btw
Is tarkov crashing constantly for anyone else? My game started doing it when that technical client update was installed
tbls are limited?
I have shit tons of them
crazy
how do people like tbls I think they are hard to see
And aren't bright
I prefer red lasers
we have to use tbl
why do you have to use them
flashlight bug??
Are they the only laser that doesn't have a flashlight
oh I thought there would have been a red laser that didn't have a flashlight too
Need some Killa killing assistance, Would Killa die to SP8 Spam to the legs.
at least with one mag.
Impact him then he’s at like pmc level Hp
Any newbies looking for help with getting started or tasks or anything? DM Me
finally killed killa, they can both now rest in peace together 
rip bozos
making a tx-15 which grip would be good for lv 2 traders
gral if u can
why is factory excluded?
is sr-25 worth using ?
probably because of how small the map is
so you can almost immediately get to extract
surviving 5 minutes or more on factory challenge [Almost impossible]
lobby wipe isn't that hard
Use the mayo, use a propital, kill the 5 other pmcs, and make it out with the quest done before player scavs spawn in
wiping lobby on factory with big gun (ez)
I mostly just run taht gun
show stats
M4 is only when I really go for pvp
damn what was that guy doing then
it’s aight
probably either didn't know what he was doing to building for looks
useable, not good
also the flashlight
47 recoil is very useable tho
it’s useable
if u wanna whiff every shot
47 recoil is very useable what
i cant use anything above 35
what should I be building most m4s for then
mono I need ur expert opinion on bcp fmj
meta is 29
26
u can aim for 35-40
which is that?
its meh.. i havent used it much
ubgl?
well meta is 16 but jailbrake
dub
which you can no longer make
show ur 29 and i’ll say what’s wrong
Jailbreak m4 isn't 16 recoil
Alientech got nerfed hard
post recoil buff it is
47 recoil is high?
Or whatever it's called
yea
The muzzle that's used
... scream with 70
Got nerfed to the ground
what calibre tho
Oh yeah I got an mcx from some guy on factory too is it any good?
Recoil is not a stat that is comparable across weapons
and the gral
just an old screenshot
Only between the same gun
Two different guns with the same recoil will have different amounts of recoil
@raven quarry
mcx also blows
isn't that a short barrel
longer barrel and mur
cba with the guide :P
lol I barely know anything in this game so I thought it was super good
you asked what’s meta
that’s what you do to make it lowest recoil
ik ik, those 2 recoil cant make too much of a difference lel
oh yea 100% doesn’t matter
The muzzle in the jailbreak build did get nerfed right
Anyone looking for help with getting started or tasks or anything? DM Me
20-30 is very good 30-40 is p good
yea got patched
i had a jailbreak adar haha
had like 0 recoil
i treid puttin it on a m4 chasis
but it broke
kinda sad
I know that
But I think one of the parts of it actually got straight up nerfed too
So existing jailbreak m4s aren't that low anymore
loud m4's just blow
So I got a ledx skin transilluminator. I see it is worth a lot of money but unsure if I should sell it or not. cannot use the flea market since i am only level 3
the recoil is useable for the price, just being blind when firing throws me off
keep it for private clinic quest, i know it seems far away but it’s worth keeping
got it, ty
actual meta slave
for jailbreak?
i hate the muzzle flash
yea
For a gun that shouldn’t be a issue!
cultist :3
only thing to do on shoreline tbf
I get fat pvp usually :3
smh naw man
anyone looking to help me with customs quests? lvl 14 rn need to do the extortionist, pharmacist, operation aquarius part 1
anyone want go customs
no!
@bold kernel im down. new to the game tho
good luck
praying for u
its not my fault the games shotgun AIs are built dif
Good luck soldier hope you won’t run into a zabralo kiddo with a flamethrower
he died
i lived
tagilla came and ran away
so i ran away too
3/4 of the people i killed were using pistols for some reason
i got bluds revenge
Where is the best place to find Buckwheat?
anyone wanna hop on a call and teach me how tf to play this game.
I can help out
just shoot me a dm
question can i make a broken smartphone to turn in for a task or make the 60 round mags for ice cream cone task?
which one?
the recent or old Gphone model?
you can craft the old one by taking the new model and a broken LCD at the workbench
broken gphone smartphone its for signal part 2 and i have to get 3 of them
how do i tell if its the old or new?
it doesnt say which one i need but im guessing the old one
no
the mags have to be fir
signal part 2
ok
fir also include items YOU craft
but if the mags can't be made, well oof
my best bet would be forteress on custom
reached lvl 7 🙂
Woods
So, I have been seeing a ton of super low level (like 1-5) pmc's lately, and I have decided that starting tomorrow, I will be spending most of the rest of wipe helping new players who are either solo or just don't happen to know anyone who plays that can help them, learn the basics of the game, how to get the early tasks done and helping learn maps. So if you are extremely new to Tarkov, (below level 10) don't have anyone to help you and are having a hard time, feel free to send me a D.M and we can try and work out a time to run some raids starting tomorrow.
try #sherpa-info
k im dumb how do we get RGN's are they quest locked now? If so behind what quest? or can they only be FIR
fir
ty
Guys how do i attach a rail or a scope on the m700 remington

sup
naked guy with impact incoming
havent died to an impact all wipe
ks twice, one on labs one on factory

ppl make pvp too complicated
just treat it like siege or csgo :3
My point is some gear is not worth buying
but i like the drip
is there a way to know if the airdrop will come or not?*
or is there like different chances for the airdrop to spawn on different mapps?
which is?
bro thinks im shotgun lover
i feel like hes referring to end game stuff
Timmy murder
Ks23 food
Cant armor your kneecaps

thank you managed to kill someone in a raid and had no clue what to do with it XD
meta gun meta build
Hey so quick question how can i flip wepons in my stash?
Thanks
Anytime!
hi is there any way to tell if you are near an extraction point without a map?
Not really, unless you just know the map
When you are at the extract itself you will see the timer and the extract name will show up on top right but that's it, no way to tell if you're getting closer
okey thanks i will try to get some maps or something, do the extraction points change or they are always in the same location?
They are always in the same location, but you won't always have the same extracts
And some of them are not always open or have additional requirements
And some of them are not always open or require special action/requirements
okey thanks
You can find maps and extract explanations on wiki

@gaunt halo you can also take a look at #sherpa-info and request help from sherpas
one last question if you enter as a scav when ever you exctract you keep the loot you found or not?
