shooter 7 will be the end of me
not 8 lol?
I wont get to 8
I killed a guy with a supressed bolty headshot 43 m away
has to be 45
please tell me there no more iron sight tasks after the first
๐

there's no quest. its event leftover
how do i get to my shooting range if i built it?
vudu and razor too?
go to*
fuck
bp too
double fuck
1000 times answered
no
how get it
someone please answer
Intimidator task
and u get bp?
yea
wtf
bap bap
rushing punisher 6
I'd do ANYTHING for bp
same for 20 whole dollars
I could use a pack of sweet chili doritos
farm rogues
lets be real tho how often do they actually spawn with bp anymore
often enough unless they changed that this wipe
i did get bp from the first rogue i killed this wipe actually
but it was waaay more when they were first introduced
๐ amounts
even if u dint get BP, u can get m856a1, m855a1, m995, m80, m993
those make it worth too
you guys can kill rogues?
easy at night
can i call in air drops with this?
Nope
if u got a red flare round for it
"easy" is a bit of an statement
have not figured it out yet how to do that
aand that part
get friends who know
it is easy, theyre blind at night you can stand in the middle of the road and just pop their heads
you need to move fast so you dont run into players, if u get a bad spawn you just extract
if you get a spawn closer to the middle of the map you can choose to just go chalet/cottage, or just sprint to plant
if u get northern most spawn u just sprint straight north, all players are behind you
extract via car or path to shoreline then
I'm getting DC'd at "Awaiting session start" for about 30 minutes straight (around 8 tried). Any idea what could be causing this?
scav on streets day time?
customs, PMC, day
than its probably on your end, did you try to join a different region in the world in the server setting?
the game will auto dc you, if your ping is over 200 (not sure on the exact number)
What can i use to upgrade the mp-133 shotgun for the quest. Im level 4
you need to find a HDD and a GK-02 muzzle before you can do gunsmith part 1
Do you guys use nvgs when farming rouges at night
For the Gunsmith quest chain, it is best, if you use the tarkov wiki for every quest part, it shows you exactly what you need and how to get it: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Gunsmith_-_Part_1
I always use nvgs when playing night
Any other region would have too much ping, but I tried different servers.
The DCs are nothing new to me, but this is first time they are this consistent.
yes always
for technical questions, the #community-support is in my experience the better channel then #beginners-assistance
Thankyou
Oh alright and do you just go straight in from the front entrance?
rogues are blind at night yes, but if u try to use a flashlight to snipe them theyll just kill you
Oh sorry, didn't notice that channel
Or do you go around building 3
i go thru front
I'ma try that out
u should just watch a vid on rogue farming
completely forgot about rogue
i have a 0% death rate to rogues at night, every time ive died farming plant has been to the goons or pmcs bc i took too long
I saw them 3 raids in a row
that is fucking wild
how is the vision of goons at night?
neither have i, birdeye just double taps my chest with thorax and i dont get to see them lol
lower, but still unreasonably good
i thought they were scavs
??codes
From the BSG Stream 20230823
- SMWPMNX ||issa noms and a pewpew||
- TMIWRX ||issa greens, heals, and fiya||
if you meet the goons on shoreline on the weather station, you are 2sec away from death
Bruh everytime my friend plays with me we see bosses 2-3 raids in a row
He's a boss magnet
that would be useful if true, farming bosses is great
He played we saw shturman 2 times in a row, reshala3, times, and goons 3times
The only Boss I constantly see is Tagilla, no other boss spawns for me on average. But last wipe Sanitar sniped me like 4 times with his kedr. Tarkov bosses are cheaters.
rogues are an easy farm on customs bc u can run around crackhouse and theyll sprint straigjt at u, shoot them thru the door
sani on cottage is nuts
i havent seen reshala but have heard him
He be spawning a lot
i always avoid cottages bc sani is insanely hard to deal with there
sani will just laser you through one of the many bushes in cottages from 200m away ๐
my favourite boss gotta be tagilla ngl
mine is old killa, now its probably tagilla
If you jump at the fence in cottage to see if sanitar is there, he can shoot you 7 times in the chest in the time it takes you to fall down again.
i mean they are brothers
Does using SVT-40 give points to sniper skill?
i feel like shturman is the easiest boss
getting chased by tagilla with his sledgehammer is really fun, especially if its unexpected
when youre playing with friends and tagilla is chasing you its so funny
If you right click and then inspect a weapon, in the top left it says what weapon it is. For an Ak-74N for example it says "Weapons > Assault rifles".
imo its either shturman or reshala
reshala has guards so
Shturman be beaming
so does shturman
but shturman is actually a threat compared to reshala who really isnt
And the snb be hitting
yes 2 always
Yeah
Oh thank you! Didnt know how to differentiate between weps ๐
Never knew it was actually underneath my nose all along
I was at office and thought there was a player creeping, but it was Tagilla
lmaoo i love it when tagilla laughs at you when you die
brutal, 3 hits
Shoulda shot his toes
I think Magnum Back
ah makes sense
hes got his level 6 rig on there
u prob unloaded some into his stomach and got him pretty low (if u didnt shoot anyone else that raid)
yeah, I think I also missed most of the first shot. I also think I reload 2 rounds, if I had canceled after 1 reload and got 1 more shot, he would probably been dead
prob too close to aim properly, ur gun wouldve shot to the side
hey, I just got the game and was wondering if anyone would be willing to show me the ropes.
you should watch a youtube video for it, there is a lot
@tidal lagoon okay will do, thank you
Basically, Tarkov has 3 fundamentals.
- Navigating the map and extracting.
- Fighting.
- Looting.
If you are new the most important step is to learn 1, there is no point in trying focus on 2 or 3, if you can't do 1.
Your goal should be to spawn and navigate to an extract. If you manage to do that you are already winning.
To help with that you should open a map for the map you are running on your second monitor (or phone), best are interactive maps that you can find on the tarkov wiki.
Just walking around the map will be already very deadly as pmc, but your goal is to play pmc as often as you can.
So you should alternate between playing scav and pmc and use the scav gear on your pmc until you can do point 1.
I recomend playing woods or/and customs as your first maps. Woods is the easiest map in the entire game, the only thing about Woods is understanding were you spawned, if you mastered that, you are on a good way to master the map.
Customs is on the other hand is a lot easier to navigate but has more narrowing's on the map, making pvp more likely (as in on customs you will probably run into more other people)
any chads (OCE) able to help me and my friends to kill rogues on light house for questing inside the compound???
how to die least as possible when questing?
dawg shoreline night raids are fucking crazy
and of course the 5th one gets me like always
Run from gunshots
For sanitary standards part 1 quest to find 1 gas analyser does it have to be found on factory or any map?
anymap
Okay thanks. I hate factory map ๐
Depends on the map and the quest, but on average, the best way if you don't care about anything then doing the quest, is to bring food and water, then camp for the first 15-20min in a bush and then go and do the quest.
Factory has a shit spawn chance for gas ans.
interchange is better
or any map you can loot lots of filing cabnets
you can also craft it on workbench 1, crafted items also count as found in raid.
Play reserve
anyone wanna run some customs or something i got random tasks like finding flash drives n shit 18 & NA west
maps with more filecabins will have a higher chance for flash drives then customs, I personally recommend streets of trakov
i crash on streets a lot
i need the flash drives too
however it's just rng pretty much
i just know customs somewhat well
For some reason the performance of night time streets (after 21) is a LOT better then on day time. Maybe try out night time streets as scav (change your postfx to black and white, there are tutorials for it on youtube) and see how it goes.
i dont like streets anyways
i dont wanna die to some random shit i cant lose my m4s
for somereason i rarely die on customs
I do everything by memory, so forgive me if I get something wrong but I have bunkhouse key and am willing to help. @bold kernel
Also if anyone else needs help I'll be glad too
You can loot the flash drives on your scav, they still count as found in raid for you to turn in for quest. You can also craft the flash drives with Intelligence Center 2, if you never manage to find them.
Only prerequisite is east/west American servers
Cant do reactions apparently but +1
Whenever i try to scav i get a server connection loss, is this on my end or is the game just bugging
scav on streets day time?
yea
thats on their end, but in my experience you can do street night time and every other map
alright thanls
should i be holding onto the collector quest items i find
The black key?
or like are there some that are more common than others
key for the two story connex building right next to skeleton on customs
depends on your goals, if you are planing to do the late-quests for kappa you should collect them, but if your goal is to "only" have max traders, you don't need to collect them
2,5mil
real ?
yes
why is it so expensive
marked room keys open the "best" rooms on the maps (not all, but on average) and the Dorms mrk. is also needed to a quest.
Is your server selection on auto
ok thx
i will keep it
the quest is a dead end quest, but its extra xp and easy to do, if you are running the key anyway.
Im noob, is it good if I do the defective wall in my hideout?
so uhhh i mightve made a mistake
yes, since the defective wall is giving you negative stats, you should do it as fast as you can
do I dismantle or do the first action?
big uff, I once listed an item wrong on the flea and payed 2mil on flea tax for it and then ofc it also did not sell giving me massive minus rep
just use that ammo for the rest of the game and sell the rest
xd i just sold it all to peacekeeper for the lvl 2
should I sell or keep the following items: geiger counter, electric drill, a motor, and the survivor lighter?
what quest unlocks the barter of the ars arma level 5 rig?
I feel like I need some of these for something but I cant remember for what
youll need the drills and motors for hideout but other than that yeah go ahead and sell them
the motors are also expensive as on the flea
only lvl 9 so i dont have it yet. Wish flea was lvl 10 again like before
The Ars Arma CPC Mod.1? Thats Long Line
ty
Anyone tell y this happened
hi so i clicked main menu after a scav run and idk what happened but i didnt get any money and everything is gone?
oh yeah i have it
i love tarkov
i go in shoreline raid to bring a gun for task
disconnected twice in a row while loading in
game completed or aborted and there goes the gun
yep, gotta not do that. Lost a nice haul this exact way
yeah :( lost 2 AKs i really wanted and one of the passes
whatever its go next thanks though
I love how the game closes down then why u load back up your pmc is dead
As a usec, can I just run in to the water treatment plant and do my quests without them shooting me or do I have to kill them aswell before entering?
Need to kill them, they will still shoot but shorter range detection
At night u can run in and do stuff if u know good pathing
I need to mark the tanks and the fuel tankers, can I do that at night without to much problem or not?
If u enter from right side and no roaming squad, yes
Idk bout mich problem
Which is better: Express or Magnum buckshot?
Is it like, Express is for longer ranges and headshots and Magnum is for up close leg meta styles?
i think its more about whether or not u can handle the recoil of magbuck
Fair enough, didn't consider the kick.
Spawn in on woods right in the middle of a mine field. Love it
Lookin for help with pocket watch and unknown key mission plz
Can prapor search mission for the convoy be done on scav?
no
only find and transfer tasks can be done with the help of scav where u can find items u need and bring them to your stash
Oh okay thanks
yo is chek 13 marked key any good
eeh...its okay, if you are early in the wipe, opened it 2 times this wipe, every time a Trooper armor and some good weapons.
is possible to call an airdrop on factory? ๐
non
im pretty new can someone tell me why the vitor 2'' wont go on this build
or are there any other rails for the TBL laser that can go on this
linked search the lvoa handguard or use the edit preset menu.
thanks !
what would be some good ammo for this
can someone help me on shoreline ive never been there
55a1 or 56a1
whats the difference between the two
55a1 is gooder
And the 56a1 is tracer
personally i recommend a mosin
Anyone with the cottage back door key willing to help me and my friend? Let me know!
The best way to understand ammo is using a webside like: www.eft-ammo .com/ shows you all the relevant stats
Ballistics on tarkov wiki give precise stats on ammo like armor pen and DMG.
m856a1 is mostly for class 4, m855a1 is mostly for class 5
if u want u can do 5:25
Im looking for some help with some custom tasks; lvl 9 first full wipe
completely new neeeeed help BAD
for BP Depot tast do i need to buy any kind of flare or something to mark with or is it already taken care of
anybody has any idea how can i get the reputation i lost with prapor and the rest because of that stupid quest that -0.25 me... im now on negative with prapor. I head there should be a mission to get back reputation?
you need to buy ms2000 markers, prapor has them
chemical 4?
u should get a quest to regain rep
farming part 4 requires 3 GPUs found in raif
So better to keep, thanks 
is this just typed assistance or is there in game assistance as well?
you can ask people to play with you yea
theres also #sherpa-info
im not familiar with the lingo my bad. Is sherpa in game help?
sherpas basically the eft term for coach for new players
ahh i gotcha i apopreciate that then
for the tarkov shooter part 2 im assuming i just run a mosin right?
Any bolt action works
I think the mp-18 also works
no
thats classified as a shotgun
needs to be a bolt action

thats not correct, the mp-18 is in fact as type a sniper rifle, but the mp-18 contributes exp towards shotguns and not sniper rifles
bro wtf is my luck 2 raids in a row 2 different teammates tk me and the 2nd one i even had a gpu
well, either way it doesnt work for tarkov shooter
since it asks for bolt action rifles not sniper rigles
that is correct
they mustve corrected that recently, i could swear it was classified as a shotgun on release
The wiki doesn't specify the exact guns that can be used but I'm pretty certain the mp-18 counts
quests ask for bolt action rifles
mp18 is not a bolt action rifle
I know
The games weapon classifications are all sorts of wonky
Exhibit A: Mp-18 contributing to shotgun skill
if it works, then because its buggy, like you could do punisher part 4 and not wear a scav west like 4 (?) wipes agoe
I doubt it would be because it's bugged
They just simply have some weird eligible weapons when it comes to some of these quests
im pretty sure thats bc the mp18 is actually a shotgun
The punisher quest with AKM rifles allows some interesting guns I'm pretty sure

that has a real life reason, somebody explained it here once, that I don't know the exact details, but something about its barrel is "not normal" and thats why its registered as shotgun, or something like that
is it worth it to use helmets that u cant have headphones with
could anyone group up with me to get the jager quest. Woods is so big and i cant find it. would be greatly aprreciated
the mp18 is smoothbore
Not rifled
But the game classifies it as a sniper still
yea its a legal russian thing
which is inconsistent since .366 guns should also be classified as shotguns in game
i just got a
shotguns are easy to get, actual rifles are harder to get in russia
Yes and No. They are only usefull for Factory were you fight at the spawn and the map is so small that there can be an argument, that you don't need headphones as much as on other maps, and you can make a faceshield on theses helmets. Its basicly saying for Factory a faceshield is more important then headphones.
I don't like it, I think headphones are more important, but you can try how you feel about it, somepeople like it.
dont use them unless its lvl 5 or more
like this fucking thing dont use this
but altyn, tagilla mask and such things i think are nice
lol kolpacks
headphones > helmets
with the exception of factory (and perhaps customs), you should be running headphones every time, even if you need to go in without a helmet
To be fair, I was not even thinking about the Kolpak, its that bad. I was talking about the T4 helmets like the https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/ZSh-1-2M_helmet
you can try these and see if you like it or not
my research says the recoil can be way below this, I'm guessing I need some higher end accessories but I'm level 11
wtf is this build
this is the "I just found this in a raid on interchange and I'm throwing on whatever shit I can get because I'm a rat that hasn't accessed the flea yet" build
u got a good supply of BP/PS?
I have some PS saved up, haven't been able to get PP/BP for 7.62x39
most of my BP this wipe has been from Prapor bankrolling my 5.45x39mm AKs
its a good way to play the game and learn about modding weapons, understanding the stat range on the different parts, will also help you identify what to loot in raid and what not. I think thats a good strategy to improve in the game.
yeah, I just want to be able to force myself to use this gun instead of hoarding it all wipe throwing mods on it
because I have a habit of doing that with rare guns
mk47 isnt rare, its just much more suited for later on when u have a good supply of good ammo and better mods
id rather have an akm at that point tbh
I mean, I've got those, been making them in my workshop
buying crap guns on fence for parts
loading up streeets for first time and im only getting 10 fps does anyone know how i could fix that? i get good fps on other maps i have a 2070 super and a 3700x
also behold my cursed inventory
stack those bags brother
Well, it is neither rare nor is it modded in a ultra meta way. The scope is good, because its a zoom and cqc in one.
Even as Rat you should gear up more, you don't need to change your playstyle (if that is what you enjoy) but better gear will allow you to make more mistakes and you will over all extract more.
if u want to rat, you should use the kedr/klin and go for legs or bare faces
mk47 is a lot more expensive (same with ammo) over those, ur better off rattinng that way
If you want to play a slower more tactical way, you don't need to go ultra budget or leg meta, you can also do it (more) geared. You don't have to stay low gear all the time.
I don't cheap on the gear, I'm always trying to throw minimum 3/3 at raids, if not 4/4
class 4s are harder for me to come by
hoping to get lav 2 to start crafting the ceramic ones
ideally someday I'd like to become a honey badger player
i love getting booted from a game and not being able to reconnect ๐
what is that?
streets moment
lmao it was on streets too
whyyyyy
is there actually a way to do quests on streets?
lol, the game kicked my out with my scav on factory, I don't pay attention and join factory with my pmc having multiple bags on ๐ lucky spawn directly at the extract
try night time raids, the performance is a lot better
Ive seen much worse
do i need night vision?
look at this one: #beginners-assistance message
Streets interchange and factory night all better to just bring a flashlight imo
Yeah
cana nyone taht know the streets map/tasks help me out? first wipe since streets was added and i dont know the map
yes and no, I always run with nvg. My recommendation is, go to youtube and look for "Night time postfx" and set the game to black and white. Then join Streets as a scav and see how you feel about it. If you find it to dark do nvg. If you don't run nvg, you will be at a disadvantage vs people running it. But I have killed a lot of people this wipe not running nvg.
i bought the game yesterday, someone to teach me some usefull things?
anyone w/ flea tryna sell me the gunsmith pt 1 shotgun choke ๐

woah thanks
LF Duo long-term, level 7, and be calm im still learning ๐
i have played some raids as scav but the raids i played as pmc i died ๐
Thats expected and normal. If you can manage to do 1 extract to 2 deaths, you are on a very good way. You have to be above average in skill to reach a 50% survival rate. This is a hardcore game after all.
Wiki
To find what ammo is good
Or tarkov ammo ehatever the websites called
For armor, the wiki goes into depth into material to tier and durability
??ammo
Official BSG Ammo chart- https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1l_8zSZg-viVTZ2bavMEIIKhix6mFTXuVHWcNKZgBrjQ/htmlview#gid=0
Wiki Ammo chart https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics
The basic is simple. A bullet has dmg and penetration. The less penetration it has the more dmg it has (on average). The more penetration then it has less dmg (but most good penetration rounds still have good dmg).
The tier of the armor gives a rough indicator how good the armor is (its complicated in the details, but for the start not that important). The higher the tier the more penetration a bullets needs to do dmg to the pmc. If the bullet hits the part were the armor is.
Survival rate is also heavily influenced by play style.
the ammo is "better" when the penetration is higher?
thats correct, arguably its also not that important, but it is a good way to manage expectations for somebody that is new to the game.
Typically yes but damage is also an important thing to factor in. Being able to pen more armor is nice but if you donโt do anything when you do itโs pointless.
Low penetration rounds that have high dmg are also good, as long as you shoot something that has no armor, like the legs.
But the most meta is playing high pen rounds, since it is easier to hit the chest and you need to do more dmg to kill a player shooting the legs or arms then shooting the chest.
These low pen high dmg rounds need something that shoots very fast, so you do massiv dmg in a very short ammount of time.
like smg
yes like smg's
you guys helped me a lot

last question, what gear should i use as pmc for my raids, im lvl 1
can anyone that know the streets map/tasks help me out? first wipe since streets was added and i dont know the map
You should alternate using scav and pmc, and use the gear you collect on the scav on your pmc. (When you play scav other scavs are neutral towards you as long as you don't shoot them, you get negativ rep for killing scavs as scavs, you should not do that)
Sell the Pistols. You can play the M4's but they aren't that great. Try to not run naked runs as pmc. You should as minimum have 1x AI-2 medkit , 2x Esmarch tourniquet and 2x Bandages as your heal gear. For gear the headset is in my opinion the most important part of the gear and you should not skip it. If you want to skip any gear, I would skip the helmet.
Your long term goal should be to do quests (the traders give you quests) as pmc (you should accept them already), and your immediate goal is to just manage to extract.
I'm off to sleep gl
good night bro
because streets is an unoptimized pile of dogshit that crashes violently and refuses to let you back in if you look at it wrong
Depends on where you are in the game and what you are doing
I personally would part with the gunpowder first unless you can craft or barter with it
the piles of meds are just there so either sell those or start crafting them into cheese slices
the UV lamps I'd also sell if you are low level
as well as the chains
oscopes, g phones, all good vendor trash for early game
as is the poxeram
and the GPU for sure
worth a ton of roubles
where do i get broken g phones?
you'd be pretty rich fast tbh
you can find them in pockets and such
or as loose loot
anyone have some decent budget gun builds they could share?
this is pretty easy to throw together
other than the grip maybe
I looted that
but a good ergo budget piece would be the grip from the PP-19
whtat ammo
i use this with pp ammo
if you can find some PS ammo, great. if prapor can give you BP ammo, even better
if you craft the gun it cost you like 90k
yeah, crafting it can be done
you can also craft the AKM
or you can do a stupid and kit out a .366 VPO with a compensator suppressor
I like doing that
the VPO can be had from LL1 traders
I've never had the flea ever
3 wipes, never made level 15 LOL
oh damn lol
so I build everything budget I guess
do you do tasks?
I get killed a lot trying to lol
ive been stuck doing the sv98 plant on shoreline
I think this is the first wipe I actually managed to do checking
without more experienced help
I still needed a wingman, a 6am start, and an absolute hellhole of a trek through new gas against a scav group
we almost died
yes
everything is good if you have enough money to burn
no
bolt action is like the mosin
you have to manually operate the bolt in order to fire the next round
what do i do guys ?
keep some meds in ur container at least
too much money for me
its in ur secure
do i turn supply plans to therapist or skier
should i sell or keep this key?

Btw- where can i find Gas analizer- i know in tech supply crates but any hints which maps to choose and where to go ?
I found some on reserve in those garages with the tanks
you can get it in drawers too
interchange has tech stores you can check (german, texho, techlight, rasmussen)
do i have to extract with it in raid or i can just craft 1 ?
can craft too
but yes extract
gasan?
needs to be in raid, so crafted or extracted with

depends on how many kits you have ready to go
leave enough so that you can reliably go out to earn it back
i thought you meant junk box
still cant find 1
Skill issue
at this point, u can VOIP and ask for gasans
most people are past that point so they might drop it if theyre nice
i havent seen any pmc in this wipe
@pearl palm howโs the recovery
?
if i see 1 i get insta tapped
Insta tap them first
easy right?
Seriously tho some pmcs have a seriously skill issue
Came up to two timmies on customs and one tapped them both
aw man
And was in office hallway on factory with a grach and killed a fully armored dude with a pp19
find the skill issued pmcs
Or maybe rat a little bit
btw which ammo is the best for shotguns?

magnum buck and flechette
thank you
interchange is easy to find them
ripp
does anybody know what these numbers mean?
i will find him
rats asre better then cheaters
true
whatever gear i had was someone elses i looted
just hate i wasted insurance on it lol
Debatable, Iโd rather die to someone I canโt physically beat due to software, then someone choosing not to use their keyboard and interact with the game
Anyone know how to not die? Iโve done at least 15 pmc raids in a row, playing with fully geared squads, and have died, every single time. My account has 57 games played and 30 hours online with 10 successful raids, and 3 successful pmc raids. I just canโt anymore
My cash reserves are nearing zero, and Iโve started to resort to selling future quest items for spare change. My stash has barely anything left. Should I just quit the game?
be a mini rat
no quittin
here is the strat i use
take a pistol
empty pouch
2 mags
TT will do fine
and go anywhere and loot some stuff
if you get stuff for 20k+= you already made money
Itโs not so much the losing money, I can get enough from scavs. The problem is the soul crushing losing streak. And my own stupidity. I lost my lad valuable item today, a airdrop, by shooting it sideways.
play very careful
my tip to you
dont take the game too serius
it is frustrating too lose stuff
but you can get it or buy it
Ong I might just quit the game
I donโt even like it anymore
you time your choice
where are here just to help you
if you are tired off the game you can do it
might take a break
Fuck it. No quitting. Only soul crushing death
you will die a lot in this game
is it your first wipe?
your first wipe WILL be your hardest one
especially- if you are playing solo
Thatโs the thing. Iโm not. Almost every single raid I do is a full squad.
It doesnโt help
if you have a friend who has played tarkov before
Like at all
you have a party of people or it is just random ?
maybe you should try to do 1-5 raids solo/duo ?
as is say, you DONT have to fight and kill 10 pmc's each raid
sometimes it is just better to extract with 150k worth of loot
then dying
@warm roost watch YouTube videos on various content creators, primarily them playing solo. While playing in a group can have its perks, it also has a ton of negatives. As a solo you donโt have to hesitate and can play at your own pace.
any newish players that wanna come chill and kick some ass? pm for inv trio here
What region are you
na
finally a second extract in a row for interchange
that aint any god damn beginner
blud is loaded
is this good or should i change smt?
if you aren't planning on taking quick aim maybe that's fine
Silly gun
ergo is great for how much shit you put on that thing
Looks nice
Recoils a bit high but its prob usable
true
meh??? I love that thing
I love it too, just its very fuzzy and wobbles so much
fr? never noticed
It moves left to right very slightly
istg space managment makes me wanna kms
like this
you can fit a lot of guns into pillboxes until you get a gun case later
5x4 backpack in 4x4 space
Pillboxes L
just because you can't matroshka them doesn't mean they aren't useful
Its just ugly imo
ahh
its just more annoying and saves you not THAT much space
i like being able to quickly grab everyhing i want
storage space has now been achieved
whats the earliest time for daytime in customs
6am is when it starts to become light, 7:30-8 is when shit becomes visible and not that dogshit red sky bullshit. Around 20-21 is when it becomes red sky bullshit and 22:00 is total darkness
thanks
i gotta get two mp133s
Get jaeger and buy them
i got my scav kills
or go to reserve
No point hunting for items u can just buy
im on my first quest bro
If u got the scav kills already ur lvl 2 correct?
yeah but i dont got the loyalty
So mechanic should give you the quest to go to woods and get the note, this unlocks jaeger who you can buy the shotguns from
Work smarter not harder
im still doing prapors first quest
i got time to play a couple days ago but i havent played since
Ur not understanding here. By getting the scav kills you leveled up to 2 correct or incorrect
yes
Ok go to mechanic and Check to see if you have a task from him
i accepted the task
That task you get, upon completion unlocks another trader named Jaeger, he sells the shotguns you need to hand in to prapor
ok
Instead of looking for the shotguns you can straight up buy them. Itโs way easier

can the quest from mechanic be done as a scav?
nice thnk u @manic cedar
just got some basice guns rn just starting out this wipe not sure where to start tbh
I just had a 3-man warn my solo ass to leave with voice lines. Very cool of them.
alright, I might need a bit of help. I'm trying to save up for a lucky scav junkbox because my inventory is full to bursting with parts that I need for the hideout. I'm officially so full I can't even offload any loot. Is someone available to just help me vet this a bit?
check the wiki
one thing I really wish they'd add is the ability to tag backpacks
then I can remember where all my stuff is
and hopefully stay better organized
basically dragged everything out to the crafting table and redoing it from scratch
da good ammo
which round is better?
EKO by miles
snm cheers
Escape from Tarkov Ammo and Armor Charts created by NoFoodAfterMidnight ๐
for all your ammo comparison needs
wtf am I supposed to do? every time I load in I get killed by some geared player or get swarmed by scavs and even spawn killed I haven't been able to make it to an extraction point once and I've lost EVERYTHING in my vault is there not a beginners map?
imo id sell but it could easily be worth,if youre new and dont wanna risk id just say sell it
keep scav running until you can get used to it. This is my first real wipe, my previous wipes i kept quitting it just takes time. (I still suck)
Not really no- The game is rough and not a great game to learn the ropes. Quite literally should have prior fps experience to play the game.
anyone wanna play? NA
You can watch a lot of beginner guides- personally my experience was lots of playing and i still sat for more than an hour learning things
Then you're not really supposed to run solo
the game is made to be played in teams
In fact being a Lone wolf is punishing and hard- "The game wasn't made to play solo"
I think at this point its more of a skill issue rather than the ropes of the game and most people dont like playing with new players I havent been able to find a group
yea you def gotta find a friend that will baby you through it
I won't acknowledge the community changed and back in the day i would put myself in lfg saying im not bad but im new and lack experience / map knowledge
or pray to the tarkov gods every night like me
I mean yeah there are plenty of assholes and i STILL dont play with em
but there's plenty of awesome people
Also #sherpa-info
yea there is a lot of people that are nice to noobs out there
But i think unless you're cracked af you shouldnt at least start playing solo
Im trying to push through the beggining because this game looks very fun in later stages
NEVER BACK DOWN
NEVER GIVE UP
When in doubt, scav out
the game begin to be really hard once you reach points of interest. If you dont know how and you dont have a choice whether to fight a 3-5 stack you will prob lose to it xD
exactly
Well anyone wanna run w a newbie? ill carry my weight the best i can
Game is hard because people have had 6-8 years to memorize every single corner of every single map.
i 100% would but i can't really play w/ anyone for the next 24 hours :p
im ganna try to run loot with my main character and use the box of loot that u get to keep
How much money do u get for a graphics card?
Do I have to have flea unlcoked to sell it?
also tells you
Yeah buying / selling / browsing is past lvl 15
if you try to use flea rn you will only be able to see trader items
depends on how you play the game
honestly since im used to flea i just kinda play like i have it and even gather items
I rat it out. I'm level 4 and have 5.5mil
lmaooo
Nah, all from scav runs
i only got like 600 k but my stash is worth a couple million and my hideout is maxed for my current situation
if you main a scav
whats the point of money
id have negative rep for sure
fr fr tho
at 6 rep you have flea market lvl scavs and its funny xD
I usually only pmc in with friends
its either chad scavs or this xD
anyone wanna group up
i will just sit in beginner assistance or chat and do nothing if i dont team up / lone wolf raids or quests
or watch anime / do other stuff irl
and then just scav in lol
factory run throughs are funny and you can blast someone's leg and run away
if anyone has the directory key for customs can you open the door for me
Can be if you get there as it lands (and it wasnt a red flare)
You can find quest items and fairly good loot inside
i camp them
Id never go for em late or in a busy place
sounds good for tarkov shooter
lf teammate currently lvl2 played multiple wipes 4+ looking to play any map except factory and streets not staying in raids more than 20 minutes
r servers really bad or is it my connection? I keep getting disconnected before I even join in and im loosing all of my loot in the process because it wont let me join back
I dont know whats tbe cause of this, first week of wipe it wasnt a problem for me on any map but in the last few days im having the same problem especially on streets. I think it might be server related
Taking red flare and waiting with a line of sight to the airdrop is probably some one the easiest low effort ways to do shooterborn
solo needing assistance hmu
This is pen chance with fucking green tracer lol. The shattered mask will not protect you from 9mm its mostly worn for its ricochet chance not bullet stopping capabilities
You wear it against m61, not 9mm ๐
If anyone wants quick-sell reference list for scav loot, dm me, i just made a list for my friend and ill share
i tried to post in here but its too much text and gets auto modded
Still no reason a scav should one tap from that far away with 9mm while im wearing that just me tho ig
Maybe screenshot it and post as image
oh man youre smart and im not
bless you
but yeah heres a quick ref list for scav runs
id do the same for my crafts list but im greedy and the lkist is too long
i know its overwhelming to pick items but theres a quick list for items that sell well early + mid
Theres websites thatvtrack those thing live but having something like this for yourself is nice. I remember making myself postit notes with info on ehat ammo is good and which items to keep and putting them on my monitor lol
yee, ive been fiending the flea and my friend was asking how so i did a quick list of what i look out for
Was a usefull tool starting out
easy to find a site for it but thats just a quick guide for people who ask "how do you profit off scav runs"
how do you get canted sights ? For the life of me i cant find the attachement to get canted
what i end up doing is taking two scopes into the raid and just unninstalling and reinstalling them lmao
Its tge mpr 45 mount
are they hella expensive tho
It for some reason only mount to the front of the gun and only takes compact sights
It is what it is
If you want you can use variable magnification scopes or ones with mounted colimators
i sent there and there wasnโt anything to accept the debut task
you start off with barely any quests
You go to a trader and choose tasks tab at the top left choose a quest and click acept. You should always accept all available tasks. If a trader has a task for you he will have a green chackmark on his portrait
do the early ones and lvl up you get more as u go
i wonder can you cheese the Friends from the West quest with a USEC friend
or did they remove that
cos you cant cheese tarkov shooter with a homie anymore either
thanks
Kill quests dont count on people in your padty
And their dogtags always cost 1 rouble for yoy
they still count for barters though
i got to lvl 15 this wipe without completing tarkov shooter pt1 and pt2
those quests eat booty
You can just play normally. Overtime you will just kill enough whike doing other stuff
i know its just easier to run into pmcs in a small map like factory
plus its kinda fun to just sprint around with an smg
anyone got dorm marked pls
Why do you need to go to dorms marked at lvl 5?
maybe for cult
thats a mid 20's quest
oh theyre 5
super expensive cause quest + great early wipe loot
unless you got 2.5m or a good friend youre waiting on that key
whats the deal with the marked room?
I found it in a scavs pocket a couple days back lmao but in saving the charges for doing the quest and helping my frienss with it
Its just a locked room that spawns high tier loot
Keys for it tend to be rare
and has low uses, and is needed for relatively early quest
ah, i did find the key for it, but im struggiling to find unknown key and the key for the early prapor task in customs, super stuck now.
And loot inside varies from just some guns to stuff like docscase, keycard holders injectors cases and so on
unknown is guaranteed spawn brother
oh is it the dead scav in the bush?
Yea, unknown has 100% spawn chance at a dead scav body near ruaf roadblock on customs
ye
mamma mia thank u
When you do quests like that make sure to check the wiki, many of them have usefull info like that in their wiki pages
last question, any advice on finding a salewa kit? i just do hatchet crackhouse runs to find one
cant craft cause i dumbly sold my fuel lol
not yet.
crackhouse + fortress
fortress has a med crate and multiple med boxes and med spawns
+old gas has medbox
u hit that trio u should be able to get it quick
the building with the power switch also has a medcrate + loose med spawns underground
thank u broski

looks like you need to do suplier
how can i prevent fps drop whenever use a scope that isnโt a holo/reflex
you cant tbh
it makes using such scopes near unplayable
i used to struggle very hard with that for a really long time, it for me to upgrade my cpu for it to get better
its because the game renders a whole new scene when you use a scope and that is very cpu heavy
Lowering resolution and going stretched made me go from 60fps to 110
only drop to 80fps when scoping now
can someone take me to the usec convey
why can't i jump while running
my sprint is on continuous it only works on press for some reason
i have never had this problem before
Any advice on how to tackle Stirrup. Besides that if you go only with a pistol in Factory that scavs rush you. How do I catch PMCs off guard? I only see fully decked out guys playing on Factory rn
