beginners-assistance

[tidal lagoon]

and you have a AKS not AK

[frigid finch]

is a marked room on streets with a single mp9 in it and nothing else possible without someone cheating?\

[tidal lagoon]

probably but havent experienced it giving less than at least a gun or two and a few items

[quasi peak]

It says I have an ak-74N

[tidal lagoon]

you need a AKS-74N

[quasi peak]

Ah okay.

Thank you.

[frigid finch]

so just bad luck then

[tulip kettle]

how much money should i have at all times?

bc i be seeing streamers at level 40 with only like 500k

[cobalt drum]

bro im crying. does this shit still work?

[tidal lagoon]

no

[cobalt drum]

aah sheet xD thanks for giving me a hell of a laughin session tho

[tidal lagoon]

imo if u have around like 2-3 mil ure good, when questing and trying to progress i dont care that much about having a lot of money, but after like max traders i start to care a bit more

[frigid finch]

i mean, having money doesnt matter if you ahve stuff to progress in your hideout

[tidal lagoon]

Ive had like 40 mil since around like lvl 45 i think

[frigid finch]

or gunsmith quests to do

[bold kernel]

dub or L

[tidal lagoon]

very good amount for scav run

prolly like 900k give or take a bit id say fro ma quick look

[regal nest]

Do you have to hold the digital secure DSP radio transmitter while you are inside the lighthouse area or just at the bridge?

[tidal lagoon]

afaik u dont need to hold it at all

[hardy fox]

not too bad probably should of ditched the mags

[mint light]

cuz pvping

its fine to be poor

u get money back rly quick

[bold kernel]

i dipped cause the barrel

[hardy fox]

barrel?

[bold kernel]

in my rig

a mutant barrel

it was 300k

[midnight zodiac]

um how did i just get head eyed by a scav using tkm fmj through a lvl 4 helmet from behind? it has a pen power of 23, just a 1 tap

[bold kernel]

maybe shot in the lower nape

[midnight zodiac]

that would have registered as a different hitbox no?

[bold kernel]

with shitty amm

ammo

oh yea

what helmet you using

if its a helmet that doesent protect its like your wearing none

[midnight zodiac]

tc2001

https://outplayed.tv/media/aYBbRB
@bold kernel

[tidal lagoon]

should not go through armor

[midnight zodiac]

apparently i got one tapped by a richochet

or fragments

[tidal lagoon]

that makes no sense

u said it was a specific bullet through a part of ur head which had lvl 4 armor

if it richochets it means it bounces off ur armor meaning it deals a small amount of blunt damage but not penetrate

fragmentation deals extra damage but needs to pen first to my knowledge

[midnight zodiac]

are bullets able to richochet off of walls and deal damage?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

rarely

but pen and stuff still applies

[midnight zodiac]

well that is what they are suggesting happened here. instead of it going through the back of my helmet, they are suggesting it hit the wall in front of me as in the SS and ricocheted into my face

[tidal lagoon]

u said kill message was nape no?

so thats not a thing

[midnight zodiac]

head eyed

[tidal lagoon]

oh

[midnight zodiac]

someone else said that

[tidal lagoon]

my bad

[glad prawn]

SUSSY

[tidal lagoon]

changes everything then

[glad prawn]

yea lmfao

bro got headeyesed from the back

[tidal lagoon]

although didnt see the bullet anywhere still possible but quite rare

[viral prawn]

Time to start out on a level 1 standard account and see how much progress i can do, let's see if starting late is really so bad

[glad prawn]

he got shot from behind

just fyi

[tidal lagoon]

yea ik

[glad prawn]

thats someone hitting infront of him after he dies

no shot it ricocheted off that lip backwards

[tidal lagoon]

it is possible

[glad prawn]

thats fucking crazy if it did.

[midnight zodiac]

i mean i died to an AI scav

[honest hatch]

How do i use the archangel mosin stock?

[glad prawn]

ive never seen that in 4 wipes

[tidal lagoon]

remove mag

[honest hatch]

oh ok

[glad prawn]

needs dif mag

also use the longest barrel

[honest hatch]

alr thx

[glad prawn]

looks hilarious

there ya go

lmao

[tidal lagoon]

the scope

[midnight zodiac]

it is pain and suffering, it is what i had to do as a new player this wipe

[glad prawn]

@tidal lagoon could do this but uh

the scope will be clipping into your head

[tidal lagoon]

nah i mean the scope itself

not the position of it

[glad prawn]

I love that scope on bolties but I mainly did it for the funny

its also cheap as hell

[tidal lagoon]

i prefer the 1-6xs and 1-8x, i need 1x range on it and 6x covers basically all ranges needed

[glad prawn]

I like hitting snipes from sniper rock to medcamp.........

[tidal lagoon]

that is something

[glad prawn]

watching them panic is really funny when their in big green tent

[tidal lagoon]

get the 20x so u can see their face

[glad prawn]

I do a lot of long range sniping for the memes on woods

this is prolly the best one of my current wipe top of sniper into med

[tidal lagoon]

nice shot

thats sawmill tho

[glad prawn]

I meant saw

MBAD

lmao

[tidal lagoon]

np

i got a similar one for SBIH lemme see if i can find it

[glad prawn]

gotta be on the other side of sniper to see into med its funky

sadly that wasnt a sbih cause svd moment but I already had woods done at that point in time

[tidal lagoon]

here it is

[glad prawn]

with a tac30 to. W

[tidal lagoon]

was wild, delay from shot to him falling over too was funny

[regal nest]

Is there any way to keep track which objectives you have already done for lightkeeper tasks? For example in Information Source I have to take vehicle extracts but can I somehow see which ones I have already done?

[glad prawn]

I..... dont think thats a beginners assistance question cause I have zero clue

ask me how to do bronze pocket watch and I gotchu though

[tidal lagoon]

not in game afaik, u can use sites like tarkov tracker or just write it down

[regal nest]

Yea its kinda not beginner question but there isn't really any other assistance channels so I guess I have to ask here.

[glad prawn]

if you have sherpa hub that'd be the main place. lots of a sherps prolly have most of L keeper done

[tidal lagoon]

sherpas arent that high lvl

[viral prawn]

First raid didn't go so bad

[tidal lagoon]

spend most their time playing w others so get like max traders i think then they dont really care anymore about tasks etc is my understanding

[glad prawn]

thats kinda how I am tbh

get lvl 37 pk and quit

just want to use axmc and mjolly

black mdr etc

[tidal lagoon]

no mechanic lvl 4 big l

gotta have the se5

[glad prawn]

I run rk2

I use guns that either have insane ergo or none so it never matters

[tidal lagoon]

i fuck w the rk2 on higher ergo guns

[midnight zodiac]

nah you gotta get to the point you can run t7

[glad prawn]

I hate t7s

[tidal lagoon]

i could, but they ass

[glad prawn]

^

they make people so tiny

[tidal lagoon]

if they were like 2-3 mil maybe

[midnight zodiac]

a casual 17+ million

[glad prawn]

shouldnt be more than 1mil.

really just a gimmick tbh

[tidal lagoon]

i think it can be worth more than 1 mil

especially if u are in a group ull just spot everyone for ur team mates

[tacit cosmos]

Documents case worth using and picking up at 3x2 pouch?

[glad prawn]

eh the new 1x-2x therm is way better than t7s ever will be for like 600k?

[tidal lagoon]

i imagine its more of a squad utility tool than something usable for solos

[glad prawn]

way better sight picture and can be used on lowweight high erg guns to scan for longer

I really wish they would fix the 2x sense on it tho

makes it completely unusable for me

[viral prawn]

if they dropped it down to 650k like cost of a LEDX i bet people would use them

[glad prawn]

2 ledx barter kek

[viral prawn]

barter for Flir + Reap-Ir

lol

[glad prawn]

tbh

[viral prawn]

i think that would be most fair

[glad prawn]

barter for reap and like a skullock

[viral prawn]

would also drive up the cost of the barters

[glad prawn]

or a craft actually

[viral prawn]

Reap-ir+ Wendy

[glad prawn]

cause the t7 really aint much different than just putting a reap on a strap or helmet mount

[viral prawn]

Oh yeah, level 2 after just 1 raid

[glad prawn]

REAP not t7 lmao

im so tired.....

[timber depot]

Where should I run as a scav that isn't factory?

[pearl palm]

streets if u can run it

[olive cape]

got head eyesd through face shields, got shot at by god himself, and i did a scav run and died 2 seconds after i spawned with head eyes

is today not a good day to play tarkov or should i switch servers or wuh

[iron trellis]

whats the safest way to get from unkownn office to zb 1013?

[vivid root]

hello guys can i get some help about my inventory and items?

[woven siren]

sure dm me

[halcyon garnet]

where can i find flash drives

[slow trench]

what faction should i chose or does it not matter

[midnight zodiac]

i got head eyed by an ai scavs ricochet, can relate

[tidal lagoon]

doesnt matter a lot

[tidal lagoon]

main difference is rogue AI on lighthouse is more chill with u and starting gear is different

[slow trench]

can i still play with people on op faction

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[slow trench]

dubs thx

[tidal lagoon]

I would say do bear cuz u get aks to start with

usec gets m4 but they arent usable early game, they need to be modded

[slow trench]

i like aks

[tidal lagoon]

ye they cool

[midnight zodiac]

545 is my baby

too bad 545 ps is kinda poo poo right now

[tidal lagoon]

the caliber is lowkey ass compared to others but early game its very nice

[frigid finch]

not bad for a single lighthouse run lol

[tidal lagoon]

some would dare say its good

[frigid finch]

prolly my best run ever

except maybe the run i hit the double armor repair kit

[tidal lagoon]

yea ive gotten some crazy double armor repair kits and stuff

other than that i think my best was goons, cuz i got some other valuable stuff alongside them

triple sg c10 is pretty crazy tho

[frigid finch]

dude, it was literally the first 3 valuables i found lol

just kept shoving them up my ass lolk

[tidal lagoon]

wild i think i need 2 or 3 for first LK task w mechanic

[frigid finch]

im never gonna get to lightkeeper lol

[tidal lagoon]

ye me neither i barely play rn

next wipe i will tho

[frigid finch]

i took like a month or two long break after the first few weeks cause this wipe felt awful for me

and had a bunch of games to play

now im up to level 43

[tidal lagoon]

im hard addicted but i slowly stop playing after my friends stop

[frigid finch]

same

no game is like this

so im stuck

[tidal lagoon]

ye

[frigid finch]

this is my second full wipe and im already up to 1238 hours lol

[tidal lagoon]

wild

but then again not really, u spend like aorund same time on wipes as i do ig

[frigid finch]

yea, i just dont play super efficiently

[tidal lagoon]

gets more and more efficient for each wipe

[frigid finch]

yea, streets tasks i put off until this last week

[frigid finch]

now i have all done but The Door and House Arrest Part 2

[frigid finch]

that makes me physically ill

[bold kernel]

only cost 200k

[tidal lagoon]

200k of garbage

[vocal root]

do i need a found in raid m4a1 for gunsmith part 7?

[tidal lagoon]

no

[vocal root]

shit ok i cant hand it in

[edgy plover]

Send a screenshot

[tidal lagoon]

its not modded properly then

also be mindful of durability, needs to be at least 60

[vocal root]

its both of my moniters look at the right one

[tidal lagoon]

ergo is way too low

use windows + shift + s to screenshot instead

its a bit hard to see some of the numbers

[vocal root]

shit ya i misread 37 instead of 47 thanks

[frigid finch]

do i seriously have to kill the streets boss for gunsmith 25?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

multiple times cuz hes not guaranteed to have a pkp

could be PKM or rpk

[frigid finch]

oh fucking amazing

[tidal lagoon]

i got pkp on all my kills on him tho

so not that low chance of pkp ig

[frigid finch]

its so annoying trying to kill him in there

[tidal lagoon]

hes easy

need to know strat of it

only issue would be other pmcs

[frigid finch]

ugh i dont want to watch a tarkov video

i never have

[tidal lagoon]

ill try to see if i have quick clip of killing guards

i dont, its only killing kaban after guards

[frigid finch]

first time i played streets this wipe, i didnt realize he was a thing, or the mines now surrounding that place...so died to the mounted grenade launcher first....next time tried to go in the side fence and died to mines lol

[tidal lagoon]

daum

strat tho is enter from north side not the one with nade launcher, and right hand peek the 50 cal gunner

u can shoot the guards who are mounted without them shooting back

[frigid finch]

nights im assuming?

[tidal lagoon]

its a pretty tight angle tho, but ive killed all guards and kaban with bolt action so its not hard all about the strategy

no day

[frigid finch]

never played streets on days

[tidal lagoon]

i mean night would just make it easier probably anyways

[frigid finch]

ill give it a shot

[tidal lagoon]

remember kaban has a LOT of hp

[shadow cove]

whats this key for?

[tidal lagoon]

he ate a m80 round to the head

nearly fucked me since i had bolt

[tidal lagoon]

its for 1 quest and good loot behind it

[shadow cove]

is it customs?

[tidal lagoon]

streets

[frigid finch]

streets, theres a quest, and the loot is pretty amazing

[shadow cove]

ah okay thanks

[tidal lagoon]

dont remember exactly the quest think it was a broadcast quest

[frigid finch]

broadcast 4

[tidal lagoon]

yea thats what i was thinking

[frigid finch]

remember, if you go, to bring a big backpack...otherwise you might have to leave some good stuff behind

[tidal lagoon]

i gotta do part 5

[frigid finch]

same

[shadow cove]

is it a hotspot? im kinda dawg shit ngl.

[tidal lagoon]

mid spot

[shadow cove]

alright

[hoary zealot]

Do i just need to keep screweing around an learning maps until i hit level 15 basically before anything else happens?

[frigid finch]

you get quests before that

[tidal lagoon]

wdym before anything happens, lot to do before

[hoary zealot]

how do i get tasks then

[tidal lagoon]

u go to the trader pages and accept them?

[frigid finch]

go to a trader, go to tasks and click accept

[hoary zealot]

its blank

[tidal lagoon]

first task is Debut from prapor and gunsmith part 1 from mechanic

and 1 from therapist

i think

show

[hoary zealot]

yeah that whole menu is empty no tasks from anyone thats why im asking and im level 7 or 8

[shadow cove]

you should have tasks at lvl 1

[frigid finch]

send a screenshot

[hoary zealot]

its always been empty i thought i had to do something to unlock them

im logging in hold on for screenshot

[tidal lagoon]

the task list or task page for each trader?

[hoary zealot]

everything

[frigid finch]

yea im assuming he is doing character task page

[tidal lagoon]

ye what i thought too but he saying everything

[hoary zealot]

debut has suddenly appeared since last ngiht

its the only thing new

[frigid finch]

ive also had that happen where i need to relog to get a quest to show up

[high crescent]

this guys cap

[tidal lagoon]

nothing mechanic or therapist

?

[hoary zealot]

thank you theyll be there and then not be there apprently

i see debut and gunsmith now

[frigid finch]

yea, if you go to the trader menu, anyone with a green check mark on their picture has a task you can accept, and a blue check mark is a task you can turn in

[hoary zealot]

i just assumed it was some complicated shit like everything else and id look into it later but now im not really dying to scavs much so it was time to start looking into it

[primal flame]

WHY DIDNT ZB-013 WORK

[fringe jay]

did u turn the power on ?

[primal flame]

fuck

[fringe jay]

well

[primal flame]

how do you do that

[bold kernel]

Yes.

[primal flame]

thanks

[fringe jay]

in warehouse 4

[primal flame]

ok

[fringe jay]

you can check if it is already on when the ZB-013 is green

[prime comet]

he just came from there

unaware about the power being a thing

but at least its a little run to turn it on unlike the hermatic door on reserve

[fringe jay]

righto

[prime comet]

tis but an unlucky timbo

if that was me i'd die on the way back from turning the power on tbh

[fringe jay]

true

especially when u leave the loot in stronghold and it could be gone when u come back xD

[spice thorn]

best way to complete tarkov wounded beast pain effect?

Cant break legs cuz painkillers remove pain effect.

[fringe jay]

break your arm in the gym xD

[frigid finch]

ive been killed by this cheater 3 seperate times on labs

[prime comet]

do you clip?

[frigid finch]

nah never have

[frigid finch]

now that you can buy labs access on flea...going in naked is almost a guaranteed way to make your money back

[tidal lagoon]

just rush black

like every labs player

[frigid finch]

im still trying to find a converter....done about 25 labs runs and have hit 10-20 valuable spawns per run and still havent found one

the blatant cheating on labs is just mind blowing to me though

[crimson flare]

That's just what you gotta do. I did 2 full days of running labs non stop for my gps and converter. First day nothing.
Second day found a led x on admin, my far forward in admin, and then converter in middle of main working area

Never again

[frigid finch]

what i wouldnt give to play tarkov with no one cheating...even with all the other issues, you remove that and the experience would be 1000xs better

[lime sage]

Anyone wanna play? I could use some guiding if someone is up to it

[lusty heath]

Does klimnov extract work

[shrewd fog]

@lusty heath probably

[ivory sable]

how would i fail this task?

[lusty heath]

😭

[lusty heath]

Therapist has the other part of quest

[fervent raft]

if you do colleages part 4

or whatever its called

[ivory sable]

oh alr

[lusty heath]

She gives u a black labs card def worth it

[fervent raft]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Colleagues_-_Part_3

this

[ivory sable]

what if i kill sanitar? just to kill him, like is it only if i turn in the quest for jaeger or something

[tidal lagoon]

if u kill sanitar its gg

[ivory sable]

ah alr

yeah ill def go for therapist

[lime sage]

Anyone wanna play? newer player

[red sierra]

is it possible to craft lolkek 3f bagpacks in your hideout?

[whole thistle]

no

you can check an items wiki page and itll show any crafts theyre used in or that create them

[red sierra]

alr thx

[viral prawn]

converter or GPSA or both? i can do some runs with you, open up red/violet/green/yellow where it spawns more often

we can also search blue/black if you need jectors

[frigid finch]

converter....but its all good, i play this game completely solo

[coral bronze]

Does anyone wanna play with someone who just reinstalled to get reacquainted after a while away or should I just LFG? or any suggestions for finding people

[tidal lagoon]

dont use the ingame lfg try #pvp-lfg

[tulip kettle]

Any tips on to winning close quarters point-fire gunfights? i find that most of my deaths are in situations like this

most my fights that i win are medium range

[dry flint]

best tip is to not ADS and just point fire/hip fire. and turn on the laser if you can to decrease spread and know where youre aiming at, and the game doesnt shot to the middle fo the screen, it shoots where the barrel is pointing at

[lusty heath]

Best night map to find priest for broadcast 5 ?

[fervent raft]

are you sure you check the right spots

it seems very unlikely

i find them every other raid

[frigid finch]

i mean, garage, center conference room, work area near black....all the main spots

i think

[fervent raft]

weapon testing, dark and all that too?

the servers beside weapon testing

parking button

blue office

[frigid finch]

weapon testing requires a key right

servers besides it yes

[fervent raft]

yeah but its dirt cheap

and gives you 2 more rarespawns

[frigid finch]

oh, never even looked

just assumed it was expensive lol

[fervent raft]

its locked yes

oh looked

yeah its very cheap

[fervent raft]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1QzfNt1nEE i made this for some guy

its not complete

but its a lot of the rarespawns

some of them wont spawn gpsa tho

or mcc

[frigid finch]

ill give it a shot

[tulip kettle]

this raid makes me actually want to uninstall

killing a 3 man and carrying 70kg to extract while fighting 5 player scavs for all nothing actually pisses me off

this is probably the most mad ive ever been

im going to go take a nap

fuck this

[primal flame]

fuck bears

i thought it was a damn scav

i was a scav

whats the key to drop bags

[sturdy junco]

double click Z to drop bag

[primal flame]

thanks

zz

[sturdy junco]

no problem mate

[tulip kettle]

i guess i made up for my suffering with this scav raid

[solid pawn]

can someone send me budget m4a1 build i need it to be like 200k

[bold kernel]

can you do the lvoa barter?

[languid owl]

brooo where are you scavving for this shit

i die to a traitor scav like every single scav raid i do

[tulip kettle]

lexos

[red lava]

or do lighthouse and kill rouges or find dead rouges

[languid owl]

lighthouse scavving is kinda mid ngl

[red lava]

mus be doin it wrong

[languid owl]

i dont care for 50 recoil half broken m4s

[red lava]

come out with mad bread everytime

[languid owl]

i probably am doing it wrong lol

[soft tapir]

glock or pl15

[red lava]

if you grab like two of the rouge guns and all there gear and etc and barrel stashes

[languid owl]

epic win!

[soft tapir]

can i do pmc kill quests as a scav

[red sierra]

probably not

[languid owl]

guys

i get shot on sight now right

[tulip kettle]

Epicer scav win

[honest hatch]

which talking thing is a funny taunt

[tulip kettle]

is arena out et

yet

im so confused

[unique granite]

no

most likely next wipe so in 2 months

[red sierra]

how...

[languid owl]

streets

[soft tapir]

why is your scav rep

fence rep

negative 4

[viral prawn]

Now it's just TT and Me vs the world

[fringe jewel]

hey i need help with repairs

i have a armor repair kit

in perfect condition

but it doesnt want to repair full

btw my workbench level is level 1

[fringe jewel]

i need explanation sir

[deft crow]

you need to have lavatory level 1 in hideout to be able to use the repair kit

[fringe jewel]

ooh

still

compare to mechanic, mechanic does 57.5 rather than 56.7

armor points

[deft crow]

but you level up skills point with repair kit if that matter to you

[fringe jewel]

oh aight

[glad tide]

I quite literally got the game today and I need help with everything

[soft tapir]

is it worth using fold stock option in raid for CQC?

or is it too much of a hassle?

[deft crow]

if you dont mind shooting the ceiling you can do it, i wouldnt personally

[deft crow]

I would recommand watching a beginner guide on youtube, alot of content creator out there doing amazing vids

[glad tide]

i cant sit and watch stuff like that

[soft tapir]

and start off by playing scav first

[glad tide]

has to be in-game

[soft tapir]

to learn the map

[deft crow]

You can always try to find a group in the looking for group chat section

[soft tapir]

well the PMC spawns and extracts are different compared to Scav spawns and extracts, but its still a good way to get a feel of the map

[glad tide]

every time i spawn as either i just walk 10 feet and get one tapped

[deft crow]

Avoid factory as a first map

[glad tide]

that's the only one ive been able to successfully extract on 💀

[deft crow]

Dont know if you have a second monitor or even on your cellphone you can open a map and try to navigate it, wont be easy at first but focus on a map and eventually you will learn it

[green abyss]

can i ask a Q about arena here?

[glad tide]

No I don't, but where do I get SKS mags?

[deft crow]

peacekeeper, top row to the right 65$ usd

[glad tide]

Yeah I got it

[deft crow]

No idea

[glad tide]

I wish I could mod weapons

[deft crow]

Complete task to get traders reputation and exp, then you will be able to mod weapons. you get flea market at lvl 15 too

[glad tide]

how do i see tasks

i look goofy

[soft tapir]

what are those for?

[glad tide]

idk i just wanna shoot people

[dry flint]

bruh, just killed a guy with a slick and comtac 4 with a shitty vector

[soft tapir]

pretty sure SKS is internal mag only

[deft crow]

it's not

[soft tapir]

you can change the mag? i didnt know that.

as in like, in raid

[dry flint]

20 mag and barrel mags exist, you can swap them out if theres ammo. but if the mags dont have ammo but ammo is in pockets/rigs, then the pmc reloads it directly to the gun

[deft crow]

green checkmark on trader portrait when a quest is available

[soft tapir]

ah i see

what are some decent class 4 helmets that are available in flea market?

[deft crow]

Ulach

[soft tapir]

thanks

tan ulach is cheaper

for some reason

[deft crow]

but it's tan

[dry flint]

yes, but its cursed

you mean cursed

[soft tapir]

its like half the price compared to black

[deft crow]

but you will die with it

[dry flint]

tan ulach is the buff cousin of the Untar helmet

[soft tapir]

fine ill just get black

[deft crow]

good choice

[dry flint]

i honestly dont know why ulach is considered good, since most class 4 helmets have high richochet chance and are the same class

[deft crow]

they protect ears

[dry flint]

ok maybe aside from the ear protection

[soft tapir]

is there is a difference in terms of how many rounds the bottom one can tank or essentially the same?

[deft crow]

it's the same, blunt damage will get you before this get to zero

[dry flint]

miniscule amount, not even worth considering unless its half hp

[glad tide]

I'll need help completing these, I have really bad dislexia

[deft crow]

If you search for the task on the tarkov wiki they have images and they simplifies what you have to do

[glad tide]

Hmm

[soft tapir]

whats the fastest way to level up sniper skill to 3?

just using sniper?

[deft crow]

get a gornostay and spam reload

[soft tapir]

oh damn

do i need to extract to keep the skill

[deft crow]

no

[soft tapir]

ok thanks

[deft crow]

You can use any bolt action btw, gornostay is just the cheaper alternative

[dry flint]

mosin gives most xp per reload tho

[deft crow]

you need stacks of bullet for mosin tho

If budget is not an issue, go for mosin for sure

[glad tide]

Where can I get an MP5 sight mount?

HK sights don't cut it for me

[deft crow]

peacekeeper

[glad tide]

Got it, thanks

So is this good

[deft crow]

thats good, i would recommand using headsets, they're very usefull. hearing from further

[glad tide]

what do i put where

[deft crow]

also, you can bring 1 stack of extra bullets to pack mag in raid

[glad tide]

doesnt work with that helmet

[deft crow]

Gssh from prapor will work with that helmet

[glad tide]

ohhh

ty

[deft crow]

very technical for a someone new but yeah very useful chart

[glad tide]

how's this then

[deft crow]

looking good

[glad tide]

Or should I run scav before I risk bringing that

[dry flint]

honestly, all they need to check si the 3rd panel. since running unecombered is the most common

[glad tide]

How

[deft crow]

Mouse over healing item and press 4 on your keyboard

[dry flint]

put in rig or pockets, hover over it and press 4-9

[glad tide]

like that?

that?

I'm too neurodivergent for this bro 😭

[deft crow]

Go at your own pace, it dosnt matter that much you will learn as you go

[glad tide]

I'm gonna spawn Scav first but where should I spawn

[deft crow]

any map is good, wouldnt recommand lighthouse or factory to begin with tho

[glad tide]

I've been going Customs a lot

[deft crow]

Custom is a great first map

[glad tide]

I just like the atmosphere when it rains ngl

Wait

Very important question

Is there any AM95 esque helmets

[deft crow]

I dont think so, but im not a helmet expert

is a altyn considered a am95 helmet?

[glad tide]

Nah lol

Clear face visor stuff

is what I like

[deft crow]

Oh yeah you can get that, but a bit later

[glad tide]

Aw

[spare robin]

What are some good YouTubers or streamers to watch for learning more about tarkov? Like good pvp, etc

[deft crow]

Probably pestily for global learning he's not the best at pvp but he's good at explaining stuff

[glad tide]

someone just begged me to kill him

[deft crow]

But did you?

[glad tide]

yeah

lol

where are these :(

[deft crow]

Open a customs map on your phone and im sure you will manage to find a way to navigate

[glad tide]

I got shot

Trying to navigate

[deft crow]

We go again!

[glad tide]

I'm gonna lose everything lol

Oh my game crashed rip

[solar crow]

i know the feeling

[zenith bear]

not really a beginer to the game but a beginner to streets and need help lol

[calm swan]

lvndmark is a really smart solo player

[soft tapir]

I like to have a "its not mine until i extract with it" mindset.

[vital oasis]

how do you know i f a boss spawns in raid? packet loss or no packet loss at spawn?

[calm swan]

no packet loss at :38

:48 on shoreline i think

[vital oasis]

cool thank you

need to try and kill shturman

[calm swan]

im too scared to try shturman

ive only purposely kill sanitar gluhar reshala so far

cant even see him there

[vital oasis]

"i was just blind"

💀

[vital oasis]

i havent tried to kill any bosses just run into them questing lol

i was trynna do bullshit earlier and wipe reshala and the boys

[soft tapir]

i got hunted down by tagilla

[vital oasis]

tagilla is a dick

[soft tapir]

i tried running away FOUR times

he was just standing there in the corridor

then near the door

he then just rushes me and smacks me once in the face right as i was extracting

[vital oasis]

yeah hell just run you down lol

[calm swan]

the thrill of killing reshala and the ensuming dorms pvp can pretty fun

[vital oasis]

true

ive just died 3 times trying to get to shturman

hes spawned in all 3 raids lol

i have max traders, not really going for kappa bc I havent kept items lol

kinda just doping quests that sound fun

or gate keep something I want

i grinded today to get mutant

[tacit cosmos]

Hi there, I am new to the game. I currently have a 3x2 pouch. I am level 20 but idk what to carry in my pouch? Any good setups?

[vital oasis]

cms, aluminum splint

are good for meds

docs case if you have it is good

[tacit cosmos]

Any reason not to pick the field surgical kit?

[vital oasis]

injector case

[vital oasis]

its a drade off

3 slots vs 2 slots

i use the surv12 when i dont need an empty slot

[tacit cosmos]

Shall I do docs case or injector case? I always like to pack some extra ammo in my pouch too

[tacit cosmos]

But cms and splint is same as surv12 no? In terms of space

[vital oasis]

surv also gives more hp back

[tacit cosmos]

What would you recommend for the last 3 slots?

Maybe documents and extra ammo or documents and injectorcase?

[vital oasis]

do you have docs case? or injectors?

[tacit cosmos]

Neither currently

But I can barter them

[vital oasis]

docs is good, im pretty sure its a quest reward tho

once youre close to

check the wiki

injector is good but if youre new to game could be a money sink if you dont use it muchj

[tacit cosmos]

Yes exactly

Maybe I will run with surv12, docs, and extra ammo

[vital oasis]

i very much like docs

you could also keep a propital/morphine in the free slot and if you find yourself using it a lot then go to injectors case

[ancient valley]

what should i run with beta container

[vital oasis]

imma kms lol

read our conversation

cms

and splints and ammo

idk

[ancient valley]

mb

[vital oasis]

all good lol just timing

[dry flint]

can someone double check my clip in #videos. I just want someone elses opinion on my clip

Actually nvm, i can post the clip here

just wanted to see if it was my aim or maybe server lag. cause my laser was right on his face

[ancient valley]

looks to me like the first 2 shots ricocheted off his ulach and the rest you hit the door frame @dry flint

[dry flint]

the laser lied to me, it was right on his face Q_Q

and my laser was mounted at the bottom of my gun

yep, I always wear helmets in cases like these. saved me multiple times from a death to just a massive headache lol

[white pond]

I have woods ptsd

[soft tapir]

lol

[dry flint]

woods probably the least pvp oriented map aside from usec/sawmill

[white pond]

Its mostly death without seeing where u got shot

[serene summit]

Can you loot special slots

[olive cape]

how much scav rep do i lose if i shoot a scav as a scav?

is it 0.1?

[serene summit]

it's 0.1

[olive cape]

ty

[white pond]

Shoot scav yes

[olive cape]

i just need to get half masks off of ai scavs for punisher

[white pond]

Just do it as pmc

[dry flint]

no

[dry flint]

pmc run in factory/customs makes that part of the quest fast. do it in shoreline where youre supposed to the quest instead tho

[olive cape]

i already killed scavs with the silenced weapon

but most of them were the sniper scavs up at power station and the other few scavs didn't have half masks

i got like 3 half masks out of the 12 or 15 or how much ever scavs i had to kill

[dry flint]

yah that sounds about right. scavs have random loot so youll be killing em for a while

[dry flint]

wohoo, got a violet keycard in woods

[last elk]

can anyone play with me i got the game yesterday

[soft tapir]

I hate woods cause idk where im being shot from

even more so with my graphics settings.

its shit.

[thick cape]

@olive cape don't call people out, Report move on.

[soft tapir]

should i use Lebedev PL 15 or Glock 17

PL 15 feels better but idk

[idle trail]

can i do punisher part 5 in factory?

[hearty sand]

https://i.imgur.com/CZWJ3bc.png

First wipe ever... pretty discouraging... I'm broke af ... never felt so terrible at a game in my life lol

[bold kernel]

Anybody down to play, im very new but I don’t really like playing alone 16+

[fringe jay]

normal

u only get better if u keep playing

[hearty sand]

Yeah? Well... that's a relief.... I guess.

Game's punishing AF for newbs

[fringe jay]

true

everyone dies even cheaters do

[hearty sand]

I just need a consistent way to make $$ ... I'm about halfway to lvl 15... but gahtdamn

[fringe jay]

use your scav when its up

[hearty sand]

feels like I'm always shelling $$ out lol... insurance, gear, etc.

Not sure what to sell to traders and what to hang onto... hope it gets better when that Flea Market opens up

30min cooldown... bonkers

[wheat tree]

dont worry about holding on stuff at firsty wipoe

befoire flea sell stuff you need money, after flea you will start learning whats good to pick up and whats trash

[fringe jay]

yeah only do that when u know what sells good

[wheat tree]

the more mistakes of (ah sht i sold it but its worth way more on flea) the more of it you will remember 😄

[fringe jay]

xD

[wheat tree]

its like my 4th wipe and im still learning about some attachment prices

[olive cape]

iss a ai

[wheat tree]

nmot to mention some prices of items shift on flea depending where you are at the wipe

cuz ppl want early stuff early wipe and later in the wipe the early stuff barely costs anything

[idle trail]

?

[hearty sand]

Game had me doubting myself... or my sanity lol... like ... "am I just... too OLD for vieeo games now or some shit!?" lol

[wheat tree]

in my opinion, this game suits older people more than games like CoD, the game is slower, its very knowledge based and decision making based

[hearty sand]

Alright y'all... I'll keep grindin' lol... thanks for being encouraging haha

If ur blowin' smoke up my ass I'm comin' for you!

😉

[wheat tree]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/543442714579173376/1164640933653008545/image.png?ex=6543f364&is=65317e64&hm=4efb3e899bf6ba4898fe2203814d300ab4be2d1159a7684289e1e80a48bc70da& here is an example of how you could make decent extra cash because you have knowledge on items. this looks like some trash pistol attachment but because its a gunsmith quest item that you cant buy early on from traders, people will buy it for a big premium

also ill give you a tip about hoarding. if the item is flea sellable and you wont use it soon, just sell it, you can buy it back later when you need it why waste inventoryu space on smth you dont know if you will use

same with unkitted weapons, just sell them, if you will want you can buy the weapon later

[hearty sand]

https://i.imgur.com/M535eL7.png

People use these shits?

[wheat tree]

different story on weapon that you CANNOT buy, you can keep those, you can remove pistol grip and mag to make them use lesss space

[bold kernel]

both usually yes

golden star more looked after

[tidal lagoon]

dont fuck w vaselin but goldenstar is fire

[bold kernel]

vaseline budget

[wheat tree]

vasseline best pain killer imo untill you start using stims

[bold kernel]

delusional

[tidal lagoon]

i use them w stims

propital only 2 with me not worth using them instead of goldenstar unless in a fight

[wheat tree]

golden star and ibuprofen lasts too long for my liking and that visual effect is not cool

[bold kernel]

what visual effect

sharpening??

[tidal lagoon]

goldenstar is also nice to level metabolism early game

[wheat tree]

but golden star and ibuprofen are good because theres a craft so they are very cost efficient

they pay for thermselves

[hearty sand]

How adverse are the effects of "Pain" after injury? I don't think I've ever popped painkillers

[tidal lagoon]

fuck ur vision

[bold kernel]

almost none

[wheat tree]

its not sharpening this wipe they removed it "delusional" lol

[bold kernel]

if u get tremor u get dizzy

[bold kernel]

what

[wheat tree]

its more of a blurry effect rather than sharp

[bold kernel]

take a deep breath and rephrase

oh

[tidal lagoon]

yea, if u get a fracture u get pain and that will also result in a tremor which I hate having

[bold kernel]

dont use pks at all then

lmao

[hearty sand]

Augmentin... ?

Immunity from what? Malaria? 😛

[tidal lagoon]

ye on the sides of ur screen chromatic aberrations or some bs

[wheat tree]

thats why i like shorter lasting pain killers

even the regular PKs are good now if you wanna cross smth cuz they last a short time

[tidal lagoon]

nvm not cultist poison, they removed that from the augmentin

augmentin is basically useless

[wheat tree]

augmentin is to sell on flea or therapist i guess

[tidal lagoon]

Immunity is just a skill that helps against negative debuffs

[hearty sand]

It'd be super convenient if you could combine sets of items... e.g. splints, Army bandies, Analgin... etc.

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[soft tapir]

thats pretty normal lol

[hearty sand]

Also... am I doin' something wrong... or does Ammo not automatically combine stacks when moving around or auto-sorting? constantly combining incomplete stacks

[tidal lagoon]

yea 19% survival ratepretty decent, seen many with sub 10% rate

[tidal lagoon]

FIR and not FIR ammo doesnt stack automatically

[hearty sand]

That's what I'm hearing... lol ... feelz bad tho 😛

[bold kernel]

this what i just killed

[tidal lagoon]

when stacked teh FIR mark is removed and therefore making them not able to be sold on flea anymore

[hearty sand]

ahhhhhh

[soft tapir]

It does feel bad at first but thats pretty much the nature of the game, even chad streamers will get frustrated with the game at times.

[hearty sand]

holy fuck, calm down Predator

[bold kernel]

yea my initial thought too

[hearty sand]

this "feast or famine" feel the game's got makin' me feel bipolar lol...

one sec I'm struggling to make space in stash... 2hr later I can't afford to heal myself after a KIA 😛

[soft tapir]

I just spam scav

you will earn a ton of money if you do it right

and only run PMC when you need to get a quest done

[hearty sand]

I mean... I do... as quickly as a 30min cooldown will allow 😛

[wheat tree]

cant rly "spam" with no scav carma

[hearty sand]

^ that

[tidal lagoon]

dont kill scavs as a scav, do car extracts on ur pmc to get higher scav rep

first time usage of car extract on each map will give 0.4 rep

[hearty sand]

If I focused mainly on SCAV runs I'd be asleep at my desk in no time

[wheat tree]

do sa scav run then pmc run

thaTS HOW I PLAY EARLY WIPE

[soft tapir]

well, as much as you can

[hearty sand]

I just figured this out a couple hrs ago... tryna see which map makes for PMC car extracts quickly and consistently.

[tidal lagoon]

and I personally wouldnt recommend maining scav runs, only as a backup solution if u dont have enough money to run ur pmc, u wont improve by playing sdav

[tidal lagoon]

woods is 100% car extract

[hearty sand]

that map's boring af 😛 too... but I'll give it a go 😄

I always feel like I'm on a deserted island lol

[wheat tree]

woods has a lot of loot when you learn it

[tidal lagoon]

its not, all the maps good you just havent realized yet

[wheat tree]

pretty much, apart shoreline

fck shoreline

[tidal lagoon]

i like shoreline

[wheat tree]

i dont care if its good i hate that sht

[hearty sand]

lol... they're both Running Simulators

[soft tapir]

this

[tidal lagoon]

there is no map I think aww man i gotta play this shit when I have a quest on them

[wheat tree]

shoreline for me

[soft tapir]

run run run then get head eyes from the bushes

[hearty sand]

No autorun key... Tarkov devs are sadists

and we pay them... to bask in the abuse 😛

[soft tapir]

why would you want auto run

[hearty sand]

everyone playing Tarkov is a bit off ... me thinks 😛

to give my middle finger a gd break 😛

[soft tapir]

it would objectively be harder to manage your stamina with auto run

[wheat tree]

he was joking 😄

[hearty sand]

I mean... auto-walk... Auto-go forward... you are free to engage and disengage SPRINT at will

[wheat tree]

nah theres already too much stuff to control in this ghame its enough 😄

[hearty sand]

I mean... it's literally ... less lol... think of it as autopilot w/ throttle control

[soft tapir]

eh just learn to play without auto run lol

[wheat tree]

you would die more with auto walk

trust 😄

[hearty sand]

as though there's another option 😄

I'm just spitballing here

this shit'll bankrupt me 😄

[tidal lagoon]

just use a sniper and u will avoid dying

its not as bad as it might look tho

[wheat tree]

kill from distance, and you can even remove body armor before you kill scav

[soft tapir]

yeah

use mosin \

[wheat tree]

allways wear headpohones

buy the cheap ones from prapor or slightly better ones from skier

[hearty sand]

*fixed

[wheat tree]

heres a quiock tip about mosin

[soft tapir]

should i wear no headphones with level 4 helmet or headphones with level 3 helmet

[wheat tree]

if you have smth else in your hands, you can load mosing without loosing a bullet on the ground

so i ussualy have a knife on me when i use mosin

and allways have at least 5 bullets in your pockets / tactical rig

in case of emergency

you donty wanna get cought with your pants down

[soft tapir]

I usually have 15 on my rig and 25 in my secure container

[wheat tree]

if your not in a fight you can take out your knife and load the mosing fully

if your in a fight just reload it fck the bullet

ofc you can pick the bullet up but 😄

ussualy aint no 1 got time for that in a fight

[soft tapir]

idk if its my graphics settings or smth but the bullet disappears if it falls onto grass or mud

[wheat tree]

some surfaces eat bullets VISUALY

but you can kinda still pickem up

in rtare cases, you cant

and this is annoying

so i just pull out a knife and load the mosin from my pouch bullets

[hearty sand]

I need an intervention

[wheat tree]

keep tac

keep sights

sell the rest

[hearty sand]

they need a TV reality show called HOARDERS: Tarkov Ed.

[wheat tree]

SE

keep that

SE-5

[hearty sand]

tac?
TAC30?

[wheat tree]

can also keep silencers for guns

[wheat tree]

keep all sights / scopes and silencers and the SE-5 foregrip

sell the rest

you will need that lobaev mayube if you wanna use that tac scope

its a cheap attachment though

[woven siren]

or sell em all and by em when you need em

i have 50+ suppressors and dont use any

[soft tapir]

keep the ones which you might use

and sell the ones which you wont use for sure

depends on the trader levels and flea market prices too tbh

[woven siren]

fair

like tac30 and vudu you keep unless its found in raid

[soft tapir]

when should i do night raids

and is it even worth it

[tidal lagoon]

night raids best raids

less players and braindead AI

free loot and quests

[soft tapir]

but visibility is reduced even more so yeah

[hearty sand]

That look right?

[tidal lagoon]

have u done gunsmith part 3

if not ure gonna want to keep that mp5sd

[hearty sand]

I have it. Not completed.

[tidal lagoon]

yea u wanna keep it then

id sell B-12 and B-8 and R43 9x19 suppressor

and both flashlights

RK-0 u could use

[soft tapir]

i personally just waited until i unlocked flea market to do the gunsmith quests

its so much easier after unlocking flea

[hearty sand]

*FIXED

[tidal lagoon]

lgtm

[hearty sand]

solid 130k ₽ nice... thanks @tidal lagoon

[woven siren]

what lvl are you?

[woven siren]

fair

would of said to sell the tac30, the vudu is need for a gunsmith task at some point

[dry flint]

vudu barter is cheap af. no need to fret

[woven siren]

fair

who is the barter from again?

[hearty sand]

skier

Nice another almost 50k ₽ for those two

[hearty sand]

I have this chillin' ... waitin' for other parts to assemble and turn in.

[tidal lagoon]

its only PK2, ure high enough level for pk2 u might jsut be missing mney spent with him

[hearty sand]

ur right ... 😕

😦

[open glade]

Tac30 is an immediate sell for me

[wheat tree]

tac is great for singler tap weapons

dont use it on spray ones

[open glade]

I just hate it in general

Impossible to use with nods

and the crosshair is incredibly crowded

[wheat tree]

its fine 😄 the onyl bad thing about it is the same with valdey and specter for me

you lose the sight of picture

valdey is one of my fav scopes to use for sniping, it has good zoom and a very clean reticle

but i would never use that scope on a spray wapon

[open glade]

Saw a guy with a valday on a 416, I dont understand how some people do that

[wheat tree]

if the game was realistic as it should be, tac should feel about the same as vudu bvecause the sight works the same way irl

[open glade]

Theres something about the vudu that just feels so much more superior to the tac30

I never choose the tac30

[woven siren]

just killed this lvl 53 chad with lvl 6 armor bro is mad

[open glade]

🥳

[woven siren]

m4 too strong

[open glade]

What ammo were you using

[wheat tree]

its what i explained earlier about picture sight

[open glade]

Yeah I guess

[woven siren]

m995 and m855a1

[open glade]

Bigg

[tidal lagoon]

vudu has better magnification and reticle

[woven siren]

couldnt take the armour tho cuz it weighs the same as a fucking tank bat

[open glade]

Facts

[wheat tree]

mostly what makes vudu better is that you can move while scoped in and not lose picture sight

anything else is just a bonus

[bold kernel]

vudu has better reticle and clarity thats why people use it

[open glade]

Not true

It still suffers from the same drawbacks that other 6x scopes have

[tidal lagoon]

none

[wheat tree]

every variable scope that doesnt make you lose picture while moving is expensive

[open glade]

Just turn down your fov and its less noticeable 😄

[tidal lagoon]

razor the best, too clean

[west condor]

last wipe the white scope that look like vudu were so bad why so muhc people use it now

[open glade]

Razor is a better valday

[wheat tree]

a lot of them are better than valday

valday loses picture sight

[bold kernel]

its either razor or vudu

[open glade]

You mean the shmidt and bender?

[tidal lagoon]

schmidt & bender had shit sensitivity before

[west condor]

ion know

[tidal lagoon]

now they are great

[west condor]

just the white long scope

[tidal lagoon]

at least rhe 1-8x one

[wheat tree]

bender is great

[west condor]

oh yes

that one

[tidal lagoon]

dont fuck with the 3-12x, cant have a not 1x magnification

[woven siren]

this has helped me wipe many a squad

[open glade]

Lots of people are doing test drive task, you need to use it for that

Clean

[woven siren]

pretty sure this guys duo was running a sniper with lapua

killed my boy

[bold kernel]

chops fs airframe forever in my heartr

[jaunty mantle]

How much rep till 3 slots

[west condor]

im still lvl 20 got a long way

[tidal lagoon]

7

[jaunty mantle]

Fuck me so close, thanks dude

[woven siren]

is it that good? i just took it off the body

[tidal lagoon]

very expensive but nice

probably the best front of head protection while still allowing headsets

[bold kernel]

used to be so meta

only viable helmet

i still think it is

[woven siren]

fair enough

ive been wiping squads today, dropped like 8 people in the last 3 raids

[bold kernel]

grind

[woven siren]

im tryna be like you ma boy

[bold kernel]

🙏

i got cereum im done wit the game

[woven siren]

ill see you next wipe

[bold kernel]

yh

[woven siren]

blue man drip

[west condor]

what is better from those?

[bold kernel]

jsp

[open glade]

The only ammo you should even consider using for Mp7 is in this order: Jsp, Fmj, Ap

Everything else is leg meta, maybe even jsp

[soft tapir]

is it worth using adar or should i just invest in m4

[fringe jay]

i will not stand for this subsonic sx slander

[open glade]

Your opinions are not valid 🤬❌️🤬❌️

[open glade]

I personally love the adar

[fringe jay]

AP sx is shit xD

[open glade]

Its cheap and effective

[fringe jay]

true

[open glade]

Good caliber too

[fringe jay]

and easy to use

[soft tapir]

yeah i guess its a skill issue for me then

[open glade]

You can easily get that gun sub 40 vert with little to no modding

[open glade]

The problem with dmrs and semi automatic rifles is that in most face to face firefights, they will just be outclassed

You're shooting 5 rounds of 5.56 a second vs some guy whos shooting 300 a second

[soft tapir]

yeah i think thats why i died

[open glade]

Not much you can do

but medium to long range that gun shines

[soft tapir]

i guess for picking scavs off its fine

[open glade]

Even for pmc fights its good

Just pick your engagements wisely

try not to get too close

Medium to long range encounters are your strongsuit

But, you can do well close range depending on how you play it

I've killed so many people less than 25m away from me with massive guns like an svd or an rsass

You just have to play to the strengths of the weapon

[woven siren]

its good for pvp too you just have to play to your ideal range

treat it like a fighting game, kite them until they fumble right into your line of sight

[soft tapir]

and also the right ammo

[open glade]

Meh

Ammo plays the least part

[woven siren]

56a1 will work fine

[open glade]

Yup

You need the skill to back it up

Learn the gun you're using

You'll be 100x more effective

Once you know the strengths and weaknesses of your gun

[woven siren]

ngl most gun fights ive won i could i won with worse ammo

i run m995 and have only killed one person using lvl 6 gear

its not common

[open glade]

Yup

I save my 995 and ssa ap for late wipe

When class 6 is way more common
