To add to what EnTo said. Its not all randome. There are specific items that are not random and have a fixed spawn. Also loot in a medic bag (were items from a specific loot-table can spawn) is also not 100% random, but there is a certain chance and the more valuable the item is, the lower is the chance for it to spawn.
Yeah
i tried to watch a couple videos but i couldnt really grasp what they were explaning
Here's a really good guide

Escape From Tarkov is an extremely overwhelming and complicated game that provides some of the absolute best and most heart pounding FPS gameplay out of any game right now. In this video I aim to give you everything you need to know...
thank you zapwag
Colored labs cards is good example of that
LF some beginner task help with game.
you can ask if theres like certain concepts you dont understand from the videos
Is the flashlight bug back? I keep pressing the tactical button thinking the light will turn on and nothing happens… so is my light on for others and I just can’t tell or am I stupid for some other reason?
what r u using
try using ctrl T to switch modes maybe you have it on some other mode
There are 3 fundamentals.
- Knowing the map and how to extract the map.
- Knowing how to fight.
- Knowing how to loot.
If you are new the 1. is the most important step of them all, there is no point in learning how to loot, if you don't know how to extract out of a round.
You should open a map on your second monitor for the map you are playing and use that to learn step 1.
A successful raid for you should be to enter and get out alive.
It’s happened a couple times with scav setups. Maybe I’m pressing the wrong button…
I at least havent had any experience with bugged flashlight
i really appreciate it
do you guys have any binds that will massively help?
yes
unbind emergency weapon reload, unbind "check time" and change "check time and exits" to Press instead of double click, unbind overhead blind fire and fold or unfold stock they are useless
you can also bind Aim to Press and hold breath to release on right mouse button so when you hold RMB you aim in and when you let go you hold your breath
I personally swap emergency reload to T since they are faster when you don't have the .3 ms delay for double press.
and you can change Slot 0 to the same key as any other slot of your choosing but put it as release instead so you can bind 2 meds to the same button
u could be using a no flashlight thing
T is default for toggling tactical devices tho
Zeroing for alt +W / S is handy but a lot of people don't fuss with zeroing anyways
I have it as alt + scroll
i also saw something about weapon inspect and the fixing the jam thing on the same bind but making it so the jam thing is on release, do u guys recommend that too?
yes
Yeah
Ye , i have those set to V
Put fix malfunction on press and inspect on release
Then you can press it once for inspect then press it again for the fix
does that make it so once the inspect animation is done the malfunction fixes too?
" spam button until gun is fixed" is very satisfying in the middle of fight
has onyone else had an issue with being able to hand in Introduction. ive got the letter and handed it in to Mechanic and have the 3 ticks but i cannot see the complete button?
no u need to wait until inspect i sdone then click again
oh okay i get it
Yes but you have to hold it through the inspection animation
it should be above your task list where the accept button is, if not try to restart and clear your cache
Unbinding emergency reload actually makes your default reloads faster too btw. Since it's not waiting for the double press
Same with the new pistol swap keybind! Unbind it or rebind it to its own key
can i send you a screeshot. i have cleared the caches and restarted game multiple times and i cannot see why i cant complete the quest
the button is moved
it should be to the left
in a space that is cropped out here
found it. haha i havent played in a couple of wipes so things are pretty different
yea, can be quite confusing, i dont really understand this particular change
thanks @woeful spruce
np
For the vehicle extracts, does the car either spawn or not spawn, or does it like roll into the extract zone during the raid so at like the 20 minute mark for example, the customs dorms gates open and the SUV reverses into the extract area waiting?
Anyone know why I cant turn this in for gunsmith part 4
thank you, this makes life hell of a lot easier :)
why are you trying to turn in a gun with ammo?
Forgot tbh but that aint the issue
could be if there is a weight limit
!wiki gunsmith 4
nvm, isn't a weight thing as that isn't a requirement
Gunsmith - Part 4 is a Quest in Escape from Tarkov.
Quest data
Parameter-oriented modding
Yes
Related quests
Leads to:
Gunsmith - Part 5
there isn't a weight requirement but that may work
also saves him some money as well
did they change it or smth
or another option just restart and clear cache
no its still the same, checked in game
is klimov street exfil always aviable on streets?
really? i thought it was 100
im really lucky then i extracted there 2 times and both times the flare worked
do you not get the signal zone popup if its not active?
im pretty sure last wipe it was 100%
I think it's still 100%
I've been on like 10 streets raids and I've seen it every single time
How do I put weapons on the rack in hideout?
dont shoot the flare untill you see the "signal area" popup on the bottom of the screen. its closer to pinewood than the new mall im pretty sure
wait, i think you might be confusing klimov street with the car extract
anyone tryna help me learn lighthouse
klimov is green flare exit
47vert is prob the lowest i can go for 150k
might be wrong but isn't that the nvgs laser
hello, i just bought the game on the website and im kinda lost on where exactly do i download it since all it says is that ive purchased the package
oh nvm
i believe i found something in my profile
ty anyways
yup, it's in the profile ;)
i shot it too ealry now i didnt get my quest and did die
well, maybe thats gonna be a lesson for the future
the map i was looking at was just completely wrong with the signal area
i shot it in the red square which is incorrect
you are looking at a pre expansion map
the map has completly changed since
thats the only map i found...i was already searching for a new one
the extract and signal area are to the right
are the sniper scavs on top of that building always shooting you?
the mall across the street? if they spawn yes, but since the expansion now you can just kill them like any normal sniperscav
overall i have been really unlucky this wipe
yeah i killed one
the ones that kill you when you fire your flare wrong are invisible
i know that
imma try it again
good luck!
i was mainly in there for the audit quest not for the exfil quest and now i failed both which really annoys me
the thing with streets is i am absolutely clueless to whereever i am
its just such a big map
wheres the best place to get mp-133s? need it for debut
i think you can buy them from jeager
Debut needs found in raid. Get it from killing scavs or scaving
then scavs are the best way of getting them
i aint got jeager 🧍♂️
Nevermind its not even a fir quest
Get lvl 2
Then do the mechanic quest
Jaeger's note
do one raid and get jeager then
yep
i am level 2 and still dont have jeager
do i gotta do jaegers camp shit as pmc?
damn
thanks
does mechanics gunsmith part 1 require a found in raid mp133?
i see
Normally u will know if u need it to be fir as the task will have 2 criteria
One being finding it and the other handing it over
ahhhh ok thanks
all the quests where u have to get something or do something is PMC, Items however can be found on scav's and used for quests
guys is thee a way for me to go streets of tarkov with 8gb of ram? xD
just put a few ram sticks in your secure container...XD
What a good suggestion.💀
download more
what i suggest rn is going outside and buying 24 gb more
and bro how the fuck u got 8gb of ram in 2023
i got 16gb lying next to my pc that i dont want
Ever since the wipe I have been constintley getting this when I try to update? I have tried patching and I am unsure what to do now other than uninstall and reinstall, anyone know what to do?
Error during installation
Verification of the patched file failed. The XXH64 hash of the patch result file, and the file that was used as input for the delta, do not match. This can happen if the basis file changed since the signatures were calculated.
so worth it
Y not?
You could give it to me i'd happly accept it
Yea good luck doing that with your shitty 40dur gun
But that 497euro
/s
and the sas drive with fences noods
Else do a single car extract or somehow kill 9pmc from that range as a scav with your shitty gun
9pmcs would give 0.27 rep so that 0.03 is worthless
Its so annoying that some dailys are impossible to do with shit rewards
i mean its a fence daily
i had a hella good weekly not long ago
16k xp 200k rub and some meh barter items
for 10 extracts from woods
i need to level up way more to get better weeklys
So far i got easy daylies but but shit rewards
Except today i got 2 pmc killing ones that gave nice 8k xp total
Factory is so easy, there is a lot of people just not running armor and you can stomp them
ive been running night woods to get money up and upgrade hideout
to build btc farm
im waiting for upgrades rn , got everything i need and still over 5mil left
gonna focus way more on hideout this wipe
cuz mostly i just used the workbench and shooting range in it
I know all the stashes so i can just farm easy money and never die as noone knows these stashes
I know all of them
I'm playing on laptop with not upgradeable ram
I doubt
You can always just replace current sticks with better sticks
Even HP laptops are upgradable with their anti repair shit and shit quality
well, back to shoreline for free xp :((
Ram is soldered
I could show you the stashes if you want once i hop on
What is your laptop?
Asus vivobook 15 pro k3500p
Steamdeck superiourity
wtf
u sent this before
bois i need like 600k more to sell to skier to get him to level 2. What would yall say is the best things to sell to him?
stop flexing before i nut on ur krokiety
You are turning your steam deck into an IED
I would just sell stuff off your scavs and such to slowly build it up
I runs on stable 40fps 
But yea fans be going wild
I do have flea, is there anything i can buy on there and sell back to him for about the same price?
activate system windows
I just leveled jaegar by spam buying cyclon batteries. He buys for the same price as on flea
I wont activate windows on a system that is not even my main
I use windows only for tarkov
Otherwise linux runs better
Some guns like ash12
Maybe tx15
Also armor prob
just buy a shitload of m32s
capys alive
Ash 12 works pretty good, about 60k on flea and 55k to skier
Not a profit but only a 5k lost
m32s not a loss at all cus u get headphones!
my friend is stuck on "deploying" and its not loading any further and he cant back down whats up with that
ive been playing skyrim for the past few days
yeah but im reselling them to skier instantly not using them
true
get glock slides
jk
already got it. ash 12 is king
You just gotta find that thing that each trader will buy for a huge price
Idk why jaegar buys cyclon batteries for 51k but he does
What's the easiest way to tell the difference between a player Scav and PmC ?
movement
if their walking in a straight line in the open for long periods of time. Most likely a scav
theres many other factors to, but i feel movemnt is the easiest to see
Hi! This might be a dumb question, but what is everyone’s strategy when it comes to running raids on Woods? I’ve learned the extracts and locations of all the other maps pretty well, by going off of a map on my second monitor and landmarks ect. But when it comes to woods, I cannot find a way out unless I have outskirts lol. Even with the woods map pulled up, I still get so lost. Is there any landmarks or some other way you guys figure out where your going and how to find extracts in that map?
Okay thanks
it just comes with time and just play scavs on woods wont help with extracts but will help getting around the map and finding loot
so im curios when you finsih building the door in your hidout it says you will get many pasive bonuses such as healt and food region after raid and exp bonus but therse no way too see them are they actuly there?
Ahh okay. I have had so many quests that would be easiest to do/ are required to do on woods. But unless I have my friends with me, I don’t want to go into woods because I know I won’t make it out lmao. Plus with the mines on top of it, I’m going to die out there
once u learn woods its such a w map
Totally, my favorite gun is the sks right now and I love playing on woods with my friends, but I want to do quests when they arnt on too so I want to learn how to get out by myself
what quests exactly
this is why i tell eveyrone to play solo
so many people are scared to play solo for some reason
I have the one where I need to kill 15 scavs on woods. Then I have the long distance kills with the bolt action i feel like would be easy to do on that map
solo brings in the gear fear in a lot of people
This is me exactly hahaha
it is very hard to explain how to get by in woods since its just trees xd
I know every tree by heart tho
Yea, I’m amazed that all my friends can navigate in that map and I’m like “how, how do you know where you’re going”
I’m out there walking in circles on my own lol
terrain, big hill
Hey guys! I'm lost, I don't see the "Introduction" quest in mechanic, even though I'm level 5. Is there anything I need to do ?
i still sometimes get rare spawns and take like a minute to figure out where i am
@dusky wren
aight.. Thank you hahaha
accept ur other tasks too
I’ll keep working at it and hopefully just get familiar with it more . I just gotta stop being a baby and go in on my own hahah
I keep getting the same spawns
its like I'd like to help but theres legit no way how to
just big hill
Anyone help with Salewa
yeah but what if you dont spawn near big hill
go woods
Any specific place in woods
anyone got a spare cricket lighter been looking for 4 days straight never found even one
med camp
medcamp,usec camp,convoy,attachments hut
1-3 salewas i find there every time
u can get out of mines pretty easily
explodes once. u stop med and move
generally doesnt black anything out
but i havent stepped on a landmine in months
last time was lighthouse
my friend has something like this
does anyone know how to fix
nothing is loading for him
yes but they tend to run into another in panic
verify game files would be my first option
he did both that and clear cache
so we are kinda running out of option
next time they wont ig 😄
then the next next time they wont
but like
u know its a process with woods
what if they will
i mean idk but id probably reinstall it then even tho its anoying
then the next next next time they wont
welp
i mean thats how u learn xd
It’s ok! I appreciate it though! ☺️
just keep running it
u will get it eventually
the next raid 
For sure, thanks for the tips
so im curios when you finsih building the door in your hidout it says you will get many pasive bonuses such as healt and food region after raid and exp bonus but therse no way too see them are they actuly there?
reinstall
he did that
restart pc
he also restarted pc but it doesnt help so he will have to reinstall, bad thing he has a 2mb internet speed :/
see u next wipe!
lmao
is this mission only if I play as SCAV?
yea, fence daily quests are for playing scav
oki ty
any idea why i cannot use my e-mail for registration?
it explains on the message ^
do you use hotmail? known issue
whatever is after the @~ is not supported
for some reason bsg is picky on what emails it acepts. i know it takes gmail just fine
Live = Hotmail, so maybe that's still the problem
i'm not a friend of multiply mails/logins
i would invest the money in the game but it seems even the registration is failing.
yea, it really sucks that they baisically force some users to make another account to play the game, i dont think thats right and this issue is known for at least a couple years
is there any way to now exact time when daily quests are updating?
they update when the timers on the previous ones expire
seems they lose clients for stupid restrictions.
oh, ok thanks)
just get a gmail?
only for business purposes.
🤷♂️
i myself got 2 gmails
I have at least four different email providers with at least one account each. Making a single random GMail isn't gonna kill you, dude.
i'm not going to set an extra mail for a game even when its not killing me i will never use mails for business for my privat matters and on the other side when its a known issue for years they should think about their fixing priorities i would take the EoD version but it seems that i will buy nothing.
imagine when only 10 players will act like me they have a loss of over 1000 bucks
no i'm having one only for bussiness.
As a solo do I need to eat a bullet from a scav and then kill them to do the wounded beast quest or is there an easier way of getting the pain effect?
eat mayo
get dehydrated
then kill them
then eat and drink
why should i thats not what i wanted to i just wanted to buy the f.... game.
Ah ok, didnt realize that counts as pain effect. Thanks
cause ur email provider is restricted by bsg. if ur too lazy to create a gmail account thats noones problem but yours
RIP.
How is setting up another e mail such a big deal? I have like 5 e mail addresses
LFG I'm getting bronze pocket watch if anyone wants to come. already have keys 🙂
no big deal for you, for me it is, over 20 years i'm fine with my mail accounts and i don't want to change, when my provider has no support for BSG its out of my range and the company should think about their assets i can feel the pain of others like me.
@lethal sand if you're this dead-set against making a free email to get into a game you supposedly are willing to drop 100 or more Euros on, then why are you still debating?
Just say "Well, not for me I guess. Too bad." And move on.
it is what i'm doing ✌️
The solution is easy, it's your attitude toward the problem and its solution that's making waves here
bye 👋

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, brother. Have a good one!
yes
sure looks like you traded
but these scavs, are they normal ones? felt like way different from normal behavior 🤔
can someone explain the damage stat on ammo to me, it says the lead slugs only do 167 damage but they can one tap to the body(i think)
yeah thats where it lists the number but it doesnt say how 167 damage takes 435 health
if you lose your thorax or your head, you die
those individually have less than like 120 hp?
oh gotcha
together even
if they're not wearing class 3 armor and above, you probably could two tap but not one
ive one tapped scavs to the chest but i didnt know that your chest being destroyed was instant death
thank you
armor reduces damage by a % as well, so try not to rely too heavily on that chart
how much bp u got
5 is fine yea all just depends how much u can spare
wait, 545 or 762
then u might aswell do 15 or whole mags even
oh 545? do like 10
most damage reduction on armor is 0 - 40% just depending on the combination of armor/ammo
what's your accuracy
considering how easy it is to get BT and BS, i wouldnt be too stingy with BP
30%
u should be looking for those too as well
BP, BT, BS, PPBS are the commonly found good 545 bullets
I'd still take PP and BP as they sell pretty well on flea
any ideas on why i dc from server mid game? anything i can do to fix that?
BS and PPBS are overkill for now tho, so i wouldnt use it until u start regularly seeing class 5
Full stack of 60 rounds of PP sells for 18k on flea
im probably like 15 raids away from getting flea lol
so for every 10 bullets you shoot, only 3 are connecting and it takes at least 2-3 to drop someone wearing class 3 - 5 armor
class 5 it could take 5 - 10
so if you have a 30 round mag and you're going to miss 70% of that mag (21 bullets), you theoretically have 9 bullets that will connect
not at all this is a tool for you
i think mine is lower lol
in theory if you at least wing someone's armor with 1 - 3 bullets of bp and you have like ps in the bottom, you should be fine
so top load like 10
Chads probably have it even lower as they tend to prefire a ton
it depends on if u mean full auto or tap firing
id hope it was better than 30% if u were tapfireing
so true
full auto
only been doing single fire the last like 10 raids doing stupid shooter quests
i also put like 3 - 5 tracer rounds in the middle of my mags to know when it's time to pack
interesting
that's a me thing i just like doing it lol
but also it's really disorienting having a bright tracer bullet just wing you from nowhere
u should try and learn what the actual rounds look like too, so u dont have to unload mags to check whats in them
like within 40m that tracer is bright as fuck
that way when ur looting u can just inspect the mag real quick to figure out what ammos in there
useful for higher tier scavs especially, like bosses rogues raiders
can quickly identify the ammo thats worth taking
probably 80% of my raids are woods but ive never seen shtruman yet
do u go to check everytime? bc u can confirm if hes there audibly
no
shturman shoots into the air to bait pmcs to come
its a very regular rythm from an svd or g28
i believe he'll do 3 shots
Once you are there you can just throw a nade to make him voiceline
once u know theyre there, the best way to kill them is, like most bosses, take cover and have them rush you
ill try that today
You can also heal cancel or reload as bosses know when you do that magicly and will rush you
noice
Your pmc broke the concept of time and died before he could die
LOL
the best way to approach is from the west, the checkpoint direction
that way u can immediately get into the warehouse and into cover
from most other ways to enter shturman will just laser you with his svd
bc its quite open
Dude theres not many others like you... people arent that attached to their one e mail address, but do you..
crazy guy lol
not really a beginner more like i dont have time to play, how can i get better at combat, it always me losing to a group of 2 people.
I never enjoy playing anything but solo in tarkov. Duos and trios just arent fun for me
for me i get one of them but the other always gets me, i dont have any irl friends to play ewith so being solo is just my life
You probably know this already, but never rush to loot a body after getting the kill.. I think the saying is "theres always another"
always loop around on a flank, assuming theres another one
u have to find a balance tho, bc if u take too long u migjt bet 3rd partied
Ik that but i try to back off and heal but i get [pushed andd die (my p[ button is broken dont mind it)
only have had that hap[p[en once to me
for me i dont even loot, if i kill one im happy
p[ersonally i just wanna kill and loot one minm, i dont have a lot of time to p[lay and get crazy good rn
Tarkov is too intense for me to wanna listen to other people chat in discord about nonsense. Any other shooter thats cool, but Tarkov I like the ambience and suspense of the solo experience
Its hard af to learn solo but its super rewarding when you stick with it
i think once work slows down a little i can get into soloing, ik p[art of the game is just dying and learning
basically bp at lvl 26 if this isnt a single wipe thing this is such a good update
Solo is very good as you can just shot anyone on sight and you make decisions yourself
so do you guys thing p[laying solo is better than finding a duo/trio here?
I prefer solo personally.
100%
only played solo so fr
Thats an advantage, but also more likely to have your shit looted when you die. Duos, as long as both players are pretty good, high chance your buddy is gonna grab your gear and get out.
whats the p[ros of solo vs a duo team, back up[ and help[ sounds like a good idea?
Scavs are brutal now with the looting.. theyll push mofos out of the way to run up and strip your corpse
bro i had the best scav run ever and i was murdered in cold blood by a scav for the loot
Solo youre not waiting for a teammate (during raid or off-raid), dont have to waste time doing any looting/questing that you dont need to do, more stealthy/less likely to be noticed, and best of all, you can shoot on sight anyone without a second hesitation which tbh wins a lot more fights i think
Yeah, thats the other thing.. when playing with multiple players you will get 2 raids in in the same amount of time you might get 5 in playing solo. Depending on the people of course.
wouldnt chances of dying lower tho?
i mean wouldnt a 2v2 be better odds? or a 2v1 is easier
More likely to attract attention, youre in raid twice as long because you have to split all loot, more likely enemy is gonna get first shot at you since youre more likely to be noticed and/or you need to double make sure its not your teammate before you go for the headshot etc.
Usually what happens is someone dies.. the teammate killls the guy and then one person sits in a lobby for awhile waiting for their friend to finish the raid
as solo player, i often find myself waiting for the 7min timer to actually extract because ive looted so quick, or rushed the quest, and got out
I imagine its different when youre in a team
hmm makes sense
I almost always kill some scavs by then
Yeah, I also move suuuper slow.. especially when questing
so when do scavs sp[awn in a raid the 7 min mark?
Depends on the map
And it is kinda rng too
where I can see this timer? I can see only timers for update of trading items
why does tarkov crash when leaving raid
who should i pick after completing out of curiosity cuz i dont wanna go back top prapor lvl 1
at the quest screen, it should be next to the quests you still active. unless you have done all of them then you will see tomorow when you get new ones
Yep, I complete all of them...
ok, there is no way to know exact time of daily quests update
also if you dont play for a longer time eg. 2 days the timer gets set to your login time, so for example if you logged in right now after not doing so for 2 days you would get new quests tomorow at at least the same time as is right now
Specs?
i get 130 fps in game on like max settings
just when im leaving raid and in the screen i crash
what does that have to do with fps
is a jammer still needed for brodcast 1?
yes
oh alright. Idk why it doesnt say it
it does in the quest description
but not in the requirements before you are already there
most dont
so im curios when you finsih building the door in your hidout it says you will get many pasive bonuses such as healt and food region after raid and exp bonus but therse no way too see them are they actuly there?
the defective wall?
it should ye but like other hideout modules it doesnt tell u anywhere except for the module itself saying it will
or well I guess you will see your food and water regen while in stash is higher than before
and exp calculation at end of raid should have bonus multiplier
Is .366 EKO good?
Yes I'm only level 10
where to get portable bunkhouse key?
Just wanna see if there are better options for low levels
its 600k
ye
imma pass
normally its more 200-300
where to find it
idk jackets
there definitely is, but its a bit hard for me to think of them rn, they change around which traders sell what ammo and add new ammo every wipe and im not fully updated on it, i just use the best i can aquire and mostly use 556 545 and 762
but best option for you is to find a caliber u wanna use then check the wiki for the best ammo u can get ur hands on for that caliber
how to get evasion armband?
find it, caches seem to be the best way
great early, 73 damage 30 pen, deals with class 3 easy but not so much against 4
ok
Does the handguard for gunsmith part 2 need to be found in raid? the wiki says to buy it from skier and add it to the gun but when i do it removes the quest item mark, and when i remove it from the gun its available to be a quest item again. Is there something I'm missing? Last wipe i just bought one and through it on
are u sure it has the quest item mark, or is it just the FIR mark
and no it doesnt need to be FIR
nah im out
is the gun folded?
yeah
is there ammo in the mag
no
are u following the wiki for the build?
yeah
post your build
muzzle brake off?
? It just randomly flickered the logo and now it can be found in raid. Might have just been buggin
it doesnt matter if its FIR or not

I just found out the hard way that you can't get too close to the river around scav bridge
What is the best map to scav in?
factory
customs woods and factory will have fastest q times
i dont scav often but when i do i go woods cuz its chill so i just flick on a youtube video and some music and loot some stashes
i go factory and just run through to not waste time
That's what I did and I had a full T20 and got killed by the border sniper. I thought it was only when you try to go down the bridge
nope
yea no, there is no indication of where the border is precisely, you just learn to not go to far away some experience
What? So you don't loot?
factory so u can q fast, exit fast
treat ur scav like a scav case at this point
i only loot if i am super low on money
by rotating scavs like that u have chances at high tier loot like labs keycards or stims
when u get experienced scav often feels like a waste of time as you can do the same thing on ur pmc except bigger bag, get there first and not worry about who to shoot
versus if u were to go looting, ur wasting time not levelling pmc or doing quests
and you get xp as well as level your skills
yes
so i only do run through scavs or to learn new maps
there is really no point to playing scav except scav rep but that u can get to 6.00 by just doing car extract and a co op or two then get the quest from fence for 1.1 more rep
u can get max 4.xx something like that with cars
not 6
i didnt say only car
bruh
?
coop extract is the hardest shit in this game but yeah didnt read it fully 😄
mb baby
last wipe i had 30% success rate on reserve
with voip
and i did 4 successful coops so not a small sample size
i do coop when im with my teammates, then i get a pscav and just put him infront so we're all safe, get him to pull his knife out
as a scav especially early game not worth trying imo
but as pmc you are more in charge kinda
you can take slaves
i mean friendly scavs
What’s the best ammo for pistol kills?
i find early game ammo isnt that important, I recommend the Glock 18 with a stock and 50 round drum mag
but it in full auto and spray the fuck outta them
pst ammo will be fine
Ok thanks
ur goal with pistols is to just dome them, so anythign works really, try to hit them on the face not the helmet
The yellow mark isnt super reliable, dont worry too much about it
build the gun and go to hand-in screen it will tell you if its correct
what market rating do you need to get to post 3 items instead of 2
Why do i keep getting this.. when it pops up my game shuts down
wrong key 😦
depression
100/100
yep
has anyone noticed scavs dont really appear on long road on lighthouse anymore? kinda hard to kill 15 of them for quest, i afk'ed for 3x 30min games only saw 1 roaming..
hmm ill give night time raid a try then
usec or bear?
Hey if you still need this be sure you get the new ak12 mag and the stock lock
usec has a small advantage but it doesnt matter too much
what this small advantage?
Go USEC please. There's an early quest to kill USEC players so we can farm you 
rouges wont shot at you at line of sight which helps do some ligthouse quests
Looking for someone to teach me streets. Pretty expiernced player just need help with navigating the map\
Hmmm
is this supposed to be the case? they shoot at me and my friend all the time. both usec
you kill them?
nah we were just running to car extract
have you killed them previously?
only as scavs
there was one relatively close. maybe like 100 feet away on a little guard tower that we ran past
forgot keys but still decent raid xd
i have no idea what im doing xd
if you get too close they will shot
at bears they shot from even 100m+
we must've been too close then
They usually give one warning and then they shoot
we just want to do the car extracts lol. it's tough with them right there
Probably just tarkov ai being tarkov ai
is it not possible to open these draawers inside crack house?
can i do task like exfils as a scav
just go via path to shoreline and still to the hills
they shouldnt shoot you at any point if you stick as far right as possible and stay behind the hills
Kinda just treat them as if they are shoot on sight at all times
need someone to help me with daily quest on factory ran into a cheater lost all my shit
can i do the mechanic introduction as a scav?
i am 21 years old new to the game i have eod and need a sherpa
how do you know it was a cheater?
175 damage to the head no armor damage didn't die. No time to heal
You sure it wasn't tagilla?
we keep getting such bad spawns for that
Only asking because I once got mad and thought it was a cheater because I didn't know who tagilla was I wasn't trying to be an ass
almost all cheats cant somehow hack players hp to make it take no dmg or smth like that
it had the report Icon so it wasn't an AI plus tagilla was on the other side of the building heard him shooting and yelling
i doubt any can
Could have been absolute garbage servers or ping
Any Tips for questing solo on customs?
I always die so fast cuz there are so many pmc/scav everywhere...
I had 50ms
I've been having a lot of rubber banding
Play slow as hell and careful as hell
Should i wait some minutes in bush or smt?
everyone talks about cheaters but i cant remember the last time i got suspectly killed
I mean your never going to learn like that
You kinda just have to push a bit but take it slow and take in your surroundings at all times and eventually you'll get better and better
but i feel like if i go directly i get killed first 5 min
Then don't go directly
i got 0 problems on woods, but customs sucks
Try to change your routes and stuff
play slow =/= sit in bush
Yeah customs is pretty jam packed you just kinda have to get used to it
i mean like waiting in push first 5-10 min or smt until some pmcs are dead
not camping and waiting to kill
just go night raid if ur having thaat big of a problem
you should go night in the first place
You trying to do quests?
100%
nightime questing is very powerful
i've been running around like a lunatic and not dying on customs
ye, i try to do that thing with bronze watch or whgatever it is
I've never done a night raid ever idk why
u didnt do pocketwatch yet?
Oh yeah try to find people to help you with that
Always helps to have someone watch your back
Yeah i mean pocketwatch haha
Unfortunately you can't pick up and task specific items on a scav, scavs are solely used to make you money, find items for your hideout, or "found in raid" task items, however items which spawn specifically for a particular task, like in the case of the letter on woods, cannot be obtained by your scav.
night raids make bush camping even more annoying
I can definitely afford nods but I have problems with that even like early day I would never want to do that
honestly nods are not that useful
night raids are good to avoid pvp
since pvp rn is pretty meeeeeeeh
its like a 50/50 of it being worth to fight
I like pvp if I play the game just like walking point a to point b I'm just never gonna learn and I'm gonna drown when I actually need to shoot things
anyone wanna teach a new player 1 on 1 i will listen and not argue
yes but if u dont quest ur gonna fall behind so much and its gonna be a drag to quest later
so usually i like to get it out of the way soon
and then pvp
I've found good momentum in getting quests done and pvp
when everyone else is geared
So right now I got the sweet spot
cuz rn too many timmies
I'm kinda scared to do quests because a lot of the ones I have suck for me to do solo
Like farming part 3
punisher is soooo fun to do
the other quests are just "go there put marker go extract"
Man I love the go grab thing and leave quests
do i need the green signal flare for klimov street 3 times if i am running with my friends or is 1 enough?
Soooo fun
Pretty sure everyone needs a flare unless they changed something from last wipe
Why do so many people kill you in scav runs.. like whats the actual point
you mean other scavs? or pmcs?
Pmcs
Loot and the potential the scavs kill them
And when your pmc it's kinda shoot everything on sight
May aswell just remove scav from the game and have only pmc
The only time a pmc has been friendly to me was when 2 of them rounded up scavs and took us to the co op extract and executed us
@bright rune lemme know if u still stuck on the pocketwatch
and they dont have much of a reason not to except if they want to coop extract
scav is a way to get a free gear set so i dont see how that is bad
i just voiped with some FHWENCH dude in resort
he was cool
Im going to kill a pmc if I see them
yes
Okay im goin to kill everything on scav from now
Except for scavs
I'll kill scavs too
Good luck man
It’s not worth it
Why should i not kill scavs
Scav karma
dont do that as you lose a ton of rep
Not worth playing scav runs then as everybody just kills me
only pmcs tend to kill scavs, other scavs tend not to and ai scavs dont shot at you at all
How do i know if its a pmc thats possibly gonna kill me if i dont shoot first
Game knowledge
based on their clothing mainly
The lower the scav rep the more you have to wait the less extracts you have and more painful things
Im new to the game so that helps alot 😂
just dont shoot anyone unless they shot at you first and hit you
Exactly you have to play more scavs so you learn what to shoot
can stuff dissapear from stash? I cant find my dogtag case anywhere
it had like 10 dogtags in it
No unless you delete it
maybe bug?
Did you shove it in a bag?
Check every bag just in case then restart your game
did both
did you had it in any thing that you took into raid and then dieed with it?
no
I guess you already checked that you can't turn them in? Maybe it is in your safe container on your pmc, or you moved gear on your pmc to make room for scav raids and it is in there
no i dont have the quest yet
i had a dogtag from the raid and noticed that i couldnt find the case
it was supposed to be in my pouch but its not
Its probably just lost somewere in your stash
LPS or T46 ammo for mosin?
2nd ledx on wuuuds
Ok, I was kinda like whats the point of having both of these ammos when they are so similar.. thought there was something I was missing
Hello,can someone help me which mission should i complete between Out of couriosity,Big Customer or chemical part 4?
the t-46m has a -1% accuracy but -5 recoil, so gzh is better for long range sniping and t-46m better for not-sniping
is it worth buying 2 scav boxes or will one suffice? my stash is way too fucking full but my junk box is also just about full so I'm not sure if it's worth or not
i have 2-3 normally
never 1
i lost it again
for what it's worth, buying a 2nd will officially fill up every single square in my stash
it dissapeared from my pouch
generally you can tell by two things
clothing (they wear a lot of blues, whites, and reds.) but also some other worn down civi clothing
voice lines (AI scavs will constantly be saying shit to eachother)
gotcha, I'll get it then
3 scavs in a row no backpack.. ugh
Any recommendations for LL2 guns?
I am a big lover for the Ump
Ive built out an M4 using LL2 parts, and an ADAR. just so pricey
UMP feels great close range but feels bad for mid range to me
I feel ill need some compromise though
Yea, the bullets for the UMP
Its quantity over quality
Just, shoot, reload, shoot, and dont reload before the mag is empty
how do i get better ammo? i cant craft them and idk if i needa upgrade my workbench or do tasks r what
Crafting them with upgraded workbench, or from higher Loyalties
Have you tried the SVT-40?
Yeaa
muffled crying
Go get the one with the scope
I wish i could put a less awful scope on it
Its like a mosin on steroids
I think ill give it a try
RFB from Skier is also great, just getting a good ammo for it... is not noob friendly
and Ill use the RFB for a budget single shot option
Yeah, it can be a tough gun to use
the sound is amazing tho
It does sound amazing lol
I suck at point firing with it though since I cant see the barrel
Hm idk that gun, who sell s it
Peacekeeper 2
look for 545 ammo, PP, BP, BT, BS are plentiful
get peacekeeper to LL2, use m856a1
Oh yeah, I do know that actually my bad
I was about to give the g36c a try
but 545 ammo is only for 545 guns
I just dont like to play solo and all my buds are away for the weekend xD
then use 545 guns
I get that, I dont play solo as much. Its heinous lol
Solo is the best
half not having back up, half the stress of makin gevery decision
I stand by my ump addiction
You need help man.
Its that or my snipers
youve got a UMP problem my friend
Best sniper

sniping with slugs is a nightmare bc of the zeroing
This is awesome
Looks like something that would belong in no country for old men
And its actual, really fun to use
u legit have to aim thorax to hit the head
T-T I need help oke
Its just a bit difficult to come around corners
As the enemy will first see a barrel for 20 minutes
and then pop ur head
Sometimes its just fun to play with guns that are badass rather than the most ergo friendly thing in thre world
rsh-12
ye end of last wipe I really like the RSASS at the end, even tho SR-25 was just better hands down
Its why I get sick of late wipe.. so many people just using the most over the top guns
and also the chiapa rhino pistol with a vudu
i put the 1-8x on it and snipe on the rsh12 regularly
also if you have a duo partner, do a game where you make a gun for the other person
and you bring in a whole kit for them, and swap kits
it will lead to great memes
did that once, got a ak without ammo, and just underbarel grenade launcher and shells
Lets say, I felt like a battlefield 4 mortar user
What do i need to not get run through?
Enough time or enough XP
7 mins or 200xp
Late wipe I just pretend all the chads are terminators and I gotta kyle reese their asses
thats far more accurate
the best way to kill a chad, is to hide in a tree
200xp is a few containers + put things on ur character
maybe touch a few bodies
YOu have my support if you do
Sucks when I have to go socialize and do real life shit but all I really wanna do is die in raids
trying to do 1 more car extract on interchange, for the scav karma
but last 2 runs, no car 😦
I gotta do that.. my scavs are spawning with worse and worse gear
my next scav is pretty decent
My next scav has an idea rig and a toz
whats ur karma at?
pfft I dunno.. close to where you start. Ive just been having bad luck with the scav loadouts the last few
I killed shturman once which set me back
Im trying to get as much as possible, as I only run scavs when I play solo
If its about to what angle to toss ur impact to reach the furthest distance
I can help
Its the very basics
Like right angle peaks vs left angle peaks?
man idk i was just in algebra and now i got this class i dont even know what im tryna solve for
Answer is right angle peaks
As beginners, what are you guys go-to map?
Its pretty easy
A is a 56.44 degree, B is a 33.56 degree
Where the line between AC is 3.32

why cant i revive my thorax with a surv kit?
it's a bug, it can only happen if you bleed it to 0 hp. Same goes for the head. Really you should be dead now.
lucky i guess
Its not a bug
It is meant to be that way
nikita has said it himself though?
that's it's not supposed to be in the game
Where can I find the plastic forestock for gunsmith part 1? I’ve got the muzzle brake I just can for the life of me find it or a hard drive for the barter
It is
It was like that pretty much since day 1 and it is not a bug
what does required and linked search mean
If you have x item
And you use required
It shows you all the y offers that requires x
If you use linked on for example an x rail
It shows you all they y stuff that can fit on that x rail
zeroing is by far the bigger issue
lookin for help gettin yeager level 1
You can trade some tools to mechanic for a juiced mp133 that has the rail if you can't find a hard drive. Go do interchange and hit all the offices and you can probably find a hard drive for the part barter.
Or get to 15 and flea everything XD
any tips for a solo to not die? 
use suppressor, always assume theres more than one
woods and customs
meat grinder
Alright thanks, I only know 2 maps and I’m hesitant to learn another one as I died so many times when I first started looking over at my map and missing things on the screen
Use the offline raids and scavs to learn new maps
You can scav interchange to get the hard drive. There are a lot of computers across it, office for each of the major businesses (idea/oli/the red one), plus at the power station and in the tech store.
Yeah I saw your message don’t worry. I only know woods and customs that was my concern
+tech stores
rasmussen, german, texho, techlight
people usually leave hard drives behind

we cant play much all ak ballers in need of unlocking ruber
i am trying to make a mp-133 mechanic likes, but i cant add the foregrip or laser. is it because i dont own the forestock?
Probably the wrong channel to ask this
Try offline raids or scav raids if you’re new - otherwise go into LFG and search for a teammate :-))
does anyone know when you get data base part 1? i compelted big sale

Portable bunkhouse? Snipe it on flea for hundreds of thousands or get lucky and find it
im lvl 8 is there a best way to get it or just luck
Can someone help me learn the game
Beg someone with the key to take u there
That's not quite what we mean by Beginners assistance
Give him operator
Bro does whole ass math equations to learn maps
lmao
ive never known that zyrachi when he shoots you with his svd or sv98 counts as a gunshout wound
Now can someone please help me
Then why are you in this channel
To help in other ways
I'm a beginner looking for assistance
Most people in these text channels help with quick questions
Ye but I cannot be asked to learn you the game when it’s 3:30 am and I’m in bed
lol

If you don’t know basics etc definitely watch a video on it because there is a lot and a video will do a much better job of explaining than we can here in text
We can rather help if there is concepts or such you don’t understand
Or ofc there is some who will just hop in a vc and teach I the entire game
yea this is for questions like
"wheres emercom extract"
Okay, then how do I view my extracts and shit
Double tap o
You should unbind check time and rebind check time and exits to single press O
Will save u a extra click each time
I got you
Is anyone else having rediculous problems getting and staying connected to a match? And is there anything I can do to help this? I'm literally waiting 10 min to get load in then it's disconnecting and I have to load in again I'm barely able to play


omg, he solved interchange
Can you give me the perfect degree of lean on my gaming chair to farm killa 50 times?
Keep getting "server disconnected" despite having under a hundred ping
