but honestly, timed tasks arent worth imo until like lvl 46
they get much better rewards then
I don't pursue them... but if they're "along the way" -- I'll do it
ye course
but ye at the same time. honestly failing tasks i havent noticed they get much worse either
so i wouldnt think about it
i accept them all even if im not gonna do them, never know when the red card sits there waiting
i found out you dont need to buy food or water go in interchange as scav go to food area and they have alot of food on shelvs and shit
lol nice
yeah, Goshan, the store on the back center of the mall
the left side of the store, north side, is a fuck ton of food spawns
literally like 75+ food spawns
i love when you have a talk with player scavs and they shoot you in the face
Some people are lame af
but you can usually tell if they intend to kill you
there fault
either super nice, want to trade something with you, or theyre super jittery
im always hesitant to trade with scavs, cause you go to drop something and they dome you while youre in your inventory
bad scav rep for theem
There's some players who give no fucks about their scav rep, and only scav to screw other people's scav raids up
Some people actually never really scav, cause they dont need money
one time i loaded with really good shit and extracted
so when they do scav, it's to be an ass
thats dumb
Once you get good at the game, you technically dont really ever need to scav
I do, just because I like to
i like them tho there kinda fun
theyre*, but yes 🙂
need help finding odolbos
loose med spawns
crack house on customs
building south of Lexos on Streets
need help with this error. have tried tarkovs support forum and the steps did not work. what else can i do?
just got 2 60 rounders full of ssa ap in factory :3
anyone want to play and help me out? i’m so clueless 😭 i just got the game
ill help ya out in a minute, let me get out of this scav raid
if you want, you can call me and ill stream
and ill start going over stuff
i just died in my scav raid cause my gun jammed and idk how to fix it
don’t know the extracts anyway
verify game files
or like reinstall
whatever its called in bsg launcher
verify installation i think
you have to 'inspect' the gun first
then 'check chamber/fix malfunction' key
well obviously, but the game shows you the keys...
it didnt
it just said inspect weapon
i just need help learning the binds, extracts and loot mostly
you can enable offline raids
the screen after map select
you can turn AI on or off, and you can explore maps without losing anything (you dont gain anything either, other than knowledge)
i know that its not an beginner question but can anyone check/tell me how much is pumpkin going for rn on flea?
thank u buddy
the helmet is 25k
pumpkin with candy i meant
🙏
how to check scav rep
whats scav rep
DO NOT KILL SCAVS when youre a scav
that is part of the rep
if they shoot you first, then you can kill them
but AI arent hostile until you hurt a scav
then all AI are hostile for the rest of the raid
this game is very hard for new players
i cannot overstate that enough
yeah i just run around till die
i tried looking at a map to find where i am to extract but i ahve no idea
ill PM you most of the maps
i have the wiki thing for the interactive maps
gotta get better at reading the maps 🙂
not like it matters ill die or just not find the extraction zone
as an example
the one time i actually extracted i was playing with someone and they brought me to the extract lol
thats how youll learn too
yeah i havent played with anyone since so ive just kept dying or going mia
what region are u
2bad
why
i had one person but we only played 2 raids and then i had to go
and ive been playing solo but havent achieved anything
anyone wanna help me gain some basic knowledge of tarkov
any one know where i can get a 60rnd mag for gunsmith 2
zb-014 on woods, lavatory lvl 2, raiders and some boss guards
where can i find salewas?
Woods med camp
medical camp on woods and crackhouse on customs is normal spots
but they can be found very many places
oh yeahhh
thats the one place i keep spawning and dying to a scav with that one weird ak with 10 bullets
time to stop dying and killing him
adapt and overcome
pretty real
scav
^
what’s like the easiest way to learn extracts
play the map
by playing
yeah im also tryna figure that out
or go offline and circle all routes in the map
go into an offline raid and find them
i’ve tried it gets so boring dying constantly or just going mia
Welp, youre going to die a lot... that's Tarkov for newbies
on browser
i do but i can’t find myself on the map
try and recognize where u are first when u spawn
then just use landmarks
doesnt get easier than that
try to learn customs before woods, its easier then u might feel like u actually accomplish something
yea woods is just wood everywhere
i play customs only
hard to learn at first
good
that's where the bulk of your starting quests are, so that's not a bad map to learn on
nearly all spawns on customs have enough landmarks without moving from spawn to find out where you are
kinda ass but easy to know where u are
the ones right of dorms towards sniper scav checkpoint could be a bit hard cuz there is some trees and shit but even those arent that bad
ngl i cant think of a spawn thats hard to get around
or like recognize
yes
on customs atleast
where is a good place to get tarkov shooter done? ive tried woods, and shoreline. but whenever i go to scav spawns theres never any scavs there. is it a CHANCE they spawn there? also iron sights are 😦
you are doing part 1?
attempting to do either part really, they both need 40+ with bolt actions
if i get the 2 heads while using the irons then good
well i did mine on woods
i hear often newer players say they dont find scavs and honestly i cant help with that because i dont understand how. I cant go a raid without finding a scav within the first minutes
im using the online maps and going to their spawn areas, are there some that arent guaranteed spawns?
honestly dont know, from my experience every spawn spawns scavs at least once per raid
all spawns are guaranteed just at different times in raid
When you here "Chigga bong bong bong" you've completed a quest
I think there are such things as guaranteed scav spawns because I've always seen a scav at the pocket watch truck
That being said I got all of my kill X scavs on either rouges or sniper scavs
does anyone know how to collect the free reward from the birthday sale. says to log in to profile on the website and ive done that and cant seem to find it anywhere
think ure a bit lat mate
dang, ive been trying since the day it was released and still couldnt find anything, oh well
it was free, but it wasnt worth a whole ton
i do too but it gets better you can always practice with offline raids. but i did my first scav extraction on factory the other night. you get better believe
a scope i have got an iron sight on the top
hoe i sawp
ive seen people use the scope before
how do i lower the scope range
LCtrl + RMB
The standard is CTRL + right click
pageup + page down for zero
And if you mean zeroing PG up and Down should the trick
for swapping zooms if u meant that, its left alt + RMB
not work
theres ampther scope on my scope
btw when do i stop questing
or do i ever stop
im at lvl 41 (pushing to 42 to get ragman ll4)
other traders are all ll4
i got pk quest mentor, got the money to turn in for it just not sure if its worth it
Lctrl + RMB
i did that
check ur binds then
ok
are u holding ctrl and thenp ressing rmb?
are u sure it has another scope on it? show
i forgot one scope
had like a 2nd scope mount on top of it that looks like its a scope already
and that might be tricking u
when u finish them all
true ngl, 2nd wipe so i guess its worth it to go push as much as possible
u can still do some quests to unlock gear
most notably aacpc quest
u also have kappa quest and lightkeeper
@primal flame Which scope do you use ?
i sold it
ima try to find it tho
all ik is it had a scope on top of it
if u sold it on flea market u can see the name in the msg
hamr
im level 14
yea thats it
its an optional scope on top
u need to add it aswell first
to use it
oh
It has to be installed tho
here it is
yea it looks like it is already there but its actually not
thought the same when i started 💀
i was really confused lol
Hello guys today i just bought a ryzen 7 5800x and a B550 everything worked fine, i only need to update the bios. But i have a problem.. and im really sad about that because i was super excited to play tarkov, when the i have the “loading map” in the start of the raid, the pc just restart… also happen with payday 3, the menu works finex but in game i just cant load because it restarts
Any help?
can someone recommend me a adar build
can someone help me do some runs
from a year ago but still very viable
run a grip and tactical device of ur choice
its like 20k without grip and flashlight laser or whatever u want
i cant attach a grip with that stock lol
or do u want something higher tier
??
oh u mean pistol grip
im saying foregrip
oh oh
what lvl are you
a bit higher
like 26
alr thx
@bold kernel do you have a svds build?
uhhh
svds only really has one build
or 2
how expensive is this?
u either run meta or close to stock
fairly cheap
just run a diff scope
since that shit is racks right now
and maybe suppressor
the rest should be about 100k
i think u can use carbon(white cream one) handguard
has same recoil as that one but cheaper
yea thats the alien handguard
this from someone i killed
if u can afford
dont know if its good ion run svd
u forgot the buttpad also 😛
yea that too
i either run precision stock or that one with buttpad
but i dont think he can buy it off traders
yea i personally think its not worth the tradeoff
so much ergo for 1 recoil
atleast for dmrs
adar becomes laser beam
whats going on with ping
u on eu
yh
spikes to 160 for 4-5 sec and goes back to normal
to place chains for chumming
playing tarkov on 50mg of aderral
@mental coral no memes
🤓
reshala now has ghoul mask
how much does Check 13 go for on flea
1m
u sure
so selling it to therapist for 975 is better
i dont have flea
ok
so should i wait till i get flea (3 levels) to sell?
on god
really need help guys i feel like no matter what i do i cannot extract or get any quests done cuz of it
what region?
Go to start > add or remove programs > uninstall all entries for C++ > reboot > install the newest C++ here for x64
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170
You could also try repairing the game in the launcher.
GOOD THING I DONT NEED TO DO THAT MY FRIEND IS HAVE THE ISSUE
caps mb
was looking at keyboard when typing
EU
i can come help u ina sec
okay thank you
where is start
@bold kernel does the firing range use bullets or can u infinitely shoot
infinite
okay i was gonna say u shot like 1m bullets
its like the mag in game tho
okay that makes sense
whats with all the scav on scav violence?
^exactly i just killed a pmc that was loaded and got rushed by like 4 player scavs trying to steal my stuff so annoying
So I have like 20 hours and everything is full I have a ton of loot right? But I only have the base version of the game is it worth investing 30 or 50 for upgrading?
Yes
Best to wait for a sale tbh
pretty sure ive taken off the sight that was on it
you probably have a ton of stuff you should sell for space, a bigger stash wont help for long
I figured but I don’t know what o should and shouldn’t sell I hardly even use my pmc and when I do it’s just to kill scavs for prapor or therapist
I can sell my shitty guns I only use my ar-15 and saiga 12 gauge
But I have a ton of back packs for ammo and med stuff yet I still have 3 rows of medical stuff and ammo and mags take up 3 rigs and 2 backpacks and my 8 keys don’t help either
dawg tagilla is ridiculously buff
scav maining is probably the main issue tbh
youre getting stuff and never losing it
it took 6 rounds of lapua fmj, 4 UMP mags with match, 1 p90 mag with l191 and a full mag of of CBJ to kill him
@sharp socket you carry 4 guns on you at all times?
i was on factory and headshot him with like 5 m61 he didnt fucking die
that was 4 of us
all shooting him at the same time
we had a fifth watching the streams and all of us were spot on with the shots
bro was just tanking
hes built diff
Gotcha so I’ll be more ballsy any tips on maps I should run. I only do woods an factory cause there easy but I step foot in any other map I get destroyed
Nobody starts good, always gotta get shit on for a bit before you can really survive
Woods is good
Okay I figured I like reserve but I don’t know any exits
you can try practice mode to figure them out
reserve's extracts are super annoying
they force you into and through a lot of pvp areas
reserve exits are aids. woods has some simple extracts and is relatively easy to survive if you avoid the sawmill area
anyone want to play and help me out? im new
@serene hatch check dms
scav bosses spawn at the beginning of the raid, right?
help
question
they dont pop in mid raid?
how do i get thru a raid
just one
i need to get jeagers letter and ive been stuck for 2 days
my roomate told me to get tarkov but he wont help me do any tasks and ive been on this same thing for 9 hours
go at night and stick to the trees till your extract
i did that twice and both times thermal to then skull
ill try again tho :)
death is normal in tarkov, youll get used to it. make sure you have some gear/weapon with you tho, cause if you dont. ai scavs will hunt you down as youll be "tagged and cursed"
is this the thing that makes the bosses like you
yes, it says so in the description lol
lucky find
sorry playing tarkov made me unable to read
i literally have a pack of crackers and 10k rubles
i got robbed lol
hmmm that makes it extremely hard for you then. I would suggest resetting your account to get back all the starting gear/inventory if you are that down bad
yeah its not pretty
dont worry, almost every has gotten to that point. the grind for money and gear is hard till you make it to level 15 for the flea market. once you get it, youll get more money out of each raid
yeah im just gonna reset
im lvl 3 with 2 pmc kills nothing at all to care about
god damn, thats actually pretty good. i legit didnt get a pmc kill till like level 10 or something. i was just doing quests when i first started and had no idea how to differ pmcs and scavs
i kill everything
yes thats ok as a PMC(your main character), but when you play as a scav. you have to be more passive since theres a system called "scav karma", that can help you get better gear and even be friendly with more hostile ai with 6 karma
you mean red smoke signal flare? its for calling in an airdrop. Put it on your rig and asign it to a number. press the number and look up and shoot then wait for the plane, it takes a while to get there
Oh yea that thingy I got it in a scav raid and it wouldn’t let me use it at all
should I buy a scav junk box? I got 1.68 mil rn
@latent quarry do you have one already
no
then yes
yea
theyre really good
I aim to get 2 of them a wipe
np
3
yea a lot more inside storage than outside
and hopefully you get lucky and it has actually good stuff inside it
i only got like 5 d batts this wipe
Dayum so it’s like a mistery box too
no hes talking about a different thing
nah i’m trolling it’s always empty
still very worth tho
oh i thought you meant hideout scav case lol
Ahh gotcha
he meant his case is empty, but there is a similar thing regarding the mystery box tho. Its called the scav case and its in your hideout, you pay/trade a certain item and game will give you out a bunch of random items depending on what you spent. more spent means higher chance of rarer items
yo im new to this game anyone wanna play?
💀
can also try #pvp-lfg, but you should at least play a bit solo, so you have a slight idea what youre doing, otherwise youre a liability to anyone you go into raid with
If I buy something from Flea, is it considered found in raid for tasks?
no
can craft it to be found in raid though
Kk I thought since it had the check mark from the seller that it would be FIR
It needs FIR to be sold on flea
but loses FIR status when it's posted
fair
bruh, why are people selling their pumpkins when they lose out on commision lol
How many gpu’s i need total for quests
3
I thought I hit jackpot with mine, went to sell at avr price and was like noooppeee
Sweet, Ill sell my other ones then!
thats tarkov alright.... .45 kd
customs
i suggest you eat something first
its not that bad ok?
you'll get there timmy
so like is my kit not good or something? i hear ppl talk about the vector a lot
depends on the situation, on high tier and large maps. its almost pointless, but for cqc ones like factory/customs. its fine depending on the rof of the weapon
yeah it's a decent kit
i got two tapped by a scav with this armour
it happens brah
someitmes scavs have good ammo
that's a decent armor for what you have available
i just realized toolboxes are literallly so good
they consistently give really good loot
same with filing cabinets
@tulip kettle had this scav run earlier where i just basically looted like 20 filing cabints
easily 2 mil
damn nice
i been just looting the dome building and reserve and the two offices and and extracting with red rebela and i make so much money so quickly
plenty of filing cabinets and toolboxes unnderground too
how do i do quests the require me going to dorms
find a friend or two... sit in a bush for 15-20 minutes then go...
or just rush it when you get 1 of the 2 close spawns and hope for the best
shotguns with flechette or magnum
Usually when reshala isnt there its not that crowded
Do Them very early or very late if youre not confident at pvp i guess
In The raid ofc
u can usually get the task thing and just leave the building theres 3 exits at least in each dorms
people dont rush u on the other end of the building just cause they hear u
usually
i killed some guy on factory and he had a slick and altyn should i run the gear or just sell it im level 23 and its my first wipe
use it
save it for another factory task
i do my factory tasks naked
hehe
thats why when i factory night today for a task with a thor ic and tagilla mask those 5 other pmcs with pistols and pacas werent ready for me
im solo tho so i feel like im gonna get clapped
if u bring a shit gun u might get clapped
well ur not losing anything but a pistol lmao
if u bring an actual good gun you should be thanos on factory bro with a slick altyn
you can easily die to an impact nade or something
i never bring anything good to factory
thats how i killed him
Dont sell The altyn, sell The slick if you dont Care
Altyns are impossible to get
You might wanna use it later
dont sell crazy shit like that, take it into a raid where you have to go to a high traffic area for a quest
Wearing that stuff more often will help you get used to getting shot and not dying
The slick is whatever you get like 250 k for it and The barter is around 400 k
Its not gonna be a Big deal
im at 4 mil
😂
@ancient valley then use it
4 mil is plenty
you have more than I lol
but im a hoarder
so i rarely have money
cause im usually buying ammos and cases to hoard
lol
I finished a wipe a few wipes back, where I had over 120 primary weapons in my stash
cause i have problems
im gonna try run a labs raid with it
that's a good shout
i dont know the map very well but i wanna get the micro controller
roll with a crew
labs is a little easier to keep track of your squadmates
i dont have people to play with
is it possible to shoot somebody through the facotry door and through the little filing cabinet wall
in office room
yes through the door
i doubt it if you were making noise
if he heard you opening filing cabinets, he probably just sprayed through the door
damn
he killed my duo looting and i peeked the door crab walking and he killed me
generally speaking
how do i learn a map?
do i just run pmc, die and learn from it
or is it possible to learn the map by playing scav
cause scav routes and pmc routes are obviously different
WATCH YOUTUBE
yes i do
look at a map
Scav to learn landmarks then on pmc adjust ur route as you play
Play offline
Have a map open on your second screen
And once you're kinda comfortable, start scavving on it
yes
does it have mines there
any good guns to mod? im feelin bored
see, this is why i go to beginners assistance and say "I'm not try to flex, look at my stream, pick a gun, any gun, it's yours and i'll bring mags and ammo"
how do i change zeroing on gun
scope in then use page up/down
thanks
no worries
mod the mcx
just unpacked a pumpkin and it had nothing lol
rip 2 juices, crackers and chocolate then
is it always that?
yes, its foods stuff's
whack
i havent seen anything posted that suggests otherwise
4 round of ap20 lol
@soft tapir Run a scav and survive. Run that gear on your PMC and quest and upgrade as you find better stuff/get kills
is this key any good?
Decent
It’s in the Dome on Reserve on the second floor
PBP
thanks cause quakemaker is just too expensive
i just went with rip
can anyone help me play?
let me run my key rq and ill play a raid with you
thanks
learn how to find loot
its not hard but ill show you some places it can spawn
and where i can find extraction points? is there button for map?
There is no button for a map but if you double tap the o button it'll pull up your extraction points
I'm still learning myself but I can show you some on reserve
Search up the map name and map so for example “Reserve map”
ah thanks
No problem I know how it feels to be new
It's like trying to put together a car engine without instructions but I'll help u with what I can
are on you loading times so long too?
Yeah they are but that's bc my PC isn't the best
same
I'm almost done with my raid
do you know how to walk slow to normal without using the mouse wheel (takes to long)
Cap lock
nice but how to join
I'll have to add you
if i extract with scav do i keep the scav items?
how
Yes and send me your in-game username
d3z1x
Alright,one I get out of this raid I'll add u and we can run my key,u can take what I dint
I'll leave u some valuable stuff
And sorry this took so long,I have to extract at D2 and had to fight some scavs
np i dont even can go extract
i got the alpha container if i die with it do i lose it?
Nope, anything in it stays with you when u die it just loses its found in raid status so you can't sell it on flea
I added u,u gotta accept
Go to messenger and you should see something that says friends next to the red x,click it and you should see my add
You wanna call? Or just voip?
Alright,were gonna scav reserve and I'll show you my route but after this one I gotta hop off
alr
U nit gonna ready up?
Just follow me and I'll show you containers and stuff you can loot
I'm still spawning in
Like I said my OC is a tad bad
PC*
Just stay where you spawned and I should be in in a sec
And a tip,don't shoot scavs as a scav,you'll lose rep and that's bad
ok
Did u shoot me?
Yeah it's fine just don't do it again,I'll teach you some tmmr when I get on,see ya
bye
Sorry I couldn't teach u anything tn
hope u at least learnt something from our chat tho
sorry i shooted you more likely
yes
If you wanna loot,look for filling cabinets,gym bags,black boxes,long flat black boxes,and green crates ,there can also be loose loot on tables and such
Also there are these big brown boxes that can have food,technical stuff or just anything,there the size of your player and if we're in a group we'll spawn in the same place so if your already spawned in and see someone close that's like just sitting there or doesn't shoo at you that's me,and if your a pmc you can have a armband to show your friendly or not
got in a fight in and i rushed in and shoot him like 50times with full auto and before too got him headshot two times aimed perfectly but he survided. he had pumpkin head is it bc that?
they just kill scav and get the clothing and kill other scavs or not
It could be but most likely you didn't actually hit him or since he had the pumpkin it could have ricoshed off of it,and under no reason should you kill another scav bc you'll lose rep and if you get to bad of rep not only will your scav has worse items but ai scavs and bosses will shoot you
so if im no scav should i still shoot them? or just when they do
If your a pmc you should bc they'll try to kill you but if your scav don't
ok thanks
No problem and if you need anymore advice don't hesitate to ask me or anyone here
one last ask what if scav shoots me and i am scav to should i shoot him?
Yes,bc they are traitor scav unless you shot a friendly scav first bc then your a traitor scav
so i could be a pmc steal scavs clothing and kill scavs with it`?
Yes,use any gear you get to kill scavs as a pmc and if they have something better or even not take anything you can bc you can sell it for money
tips for dorms
how do i know they are scavs everytime because they can look other
If your not confident then go there late or really early,but if your confident go there and use the rooms for pvp and just watch out for reshalla
If your a pmc just shoot anything that moves besides your teammates
so i must when i am a scav guess if they are scav?
If they move kinda bot like then they are scav or if they wiggle at you then they are friendly
ok
They do?
But yeah basically if they don't shoot you don't shoot them, unless they are a pmc that looks fully of loot
first time unlocking 6.00 scav rep. Is Fence shop any good at some point? I've noticed a lot of prices being too high compared to market.
bruh
Pretty much no ,flea is better bc you don't need random stuff,but 6.0 rep is really good bc bosses won't shoot you
so only benefit is that bosses dont shoot you and you have better scav gear?
aight ty
worth getting it to 12.0?
You can use the good rep to get close to bosses and get a easy kill,and maybe I'm not sure
wont be killing bosses as a scav
This is my first wipe having pos scav rep,I only played the last week of last wipe and some how got neg 6 scav rep and I ment as a pmc bc you can be friendly with them as a pmc too I think
I think you need the flare pistol and the poison green flare in it to be friendly with bosses as a pmc
I don't think so,I don't know much about the Halloween even other than the pumpkin helms are awesome
yep
I wanna get like 10 of them just for shit and giggles
another question about the event. ive noticed yesterday on streets (playing nighttime streets), basically every regular scav had raider's gear. lucky me or....?
Idk much about that bc I don't play Streets but I'd say you got lucky
that spawned on regular ai scav in shop
Streets OP
oh yea
Fuck streets,I can't load it even with the low res option
Runs smooooth as water for me
ram is the problem
It's a prebuilt so I can't find any that'll fit
I think it's ddr4
8gb of ram is crazy bro I remember when I had 8gb ram not even customs would run smooth for me back then 😂
why is he muted 😦
i suppose asscheeks clenched mod
unfortunate
GTX 1650 gang
upgrade to 16GB first, maybe even 32GB if you have the budget for it
Do i need a mouse for tarkov
It will help you greatly.
I mean ive seen a single person play Tarkov with a controller
but that guy is basically living in Tarkov so yeah
Real!
Depends on how bad your mobile hotspot is. But also your region. I have a stable network and I still get ping and packet loss issues because of Tarkov's servers. From Singapore location to Singapore EFT server, mind you.
server browser says 225 ping for Australia server
i cant even select it cause its greyed out
Ok
what kind of a gas block do i need for ar-15 aeroknox handguard
just press linked search on it
or actually probably wont work on those guns
are u in edit preset
i did theres nothing there
ye gas block goes on barrel with ars
actually i think any gas block should work except default one
and maybe the one with picatinny rails
mk12 is always a safe bet tho
ty 🙂 )
nice?
depends on how you look at it ¯_(ツ)_/¯
care to share a screenshot?
i could help with some tips
alright
How do i not get beamed by the rogues in lighthouse i gotta mark a truck right outside one of their towers and like 3rd time i just get beamed
dolphin dived behind a rock to still get domed by a hmg
u attack them outside their line of sight
do they have a chance to not spawn near that area specifically
what do i do ? apart from the bolt action guns idk what to do with the rest of them. Its a mix of guns from scav and found in raid
should i sell or keep them
bet
the rogue mounted gunners will always spawn
thanks
ah ok ig il just pick em off w a sniper
are most AK's dogshit ?
dogshit no
all guns are dogshit when not modded but there is a lot of aks that are nice when modded
can you wear a tac rig and body armor that have body protection ? or is it one only
u cannot wear a armored rig, u can use a normal chest rig with armor
Most 545 aks have no recoil when modded
And they hella cheap to mod
Also no dmg tho
can anyone do raids with me i am low on budget and have not much anymore im new
how do i get over gear fear
play scav raids until you have a mil or so
put gear on go raid and lose ur gear
or kill peope and get more that works too
if u just use ur best available kit always u will get used to losing good gear
hm ok
run good weapons
u get rid of it overtime
but only if u die to players
if u die to scavs from my experience ur just gonna convince urself ur bad
and u wont run good shit in fear of losing it to scavs or in some stupid way
uh how
loot stuff and sell it
alr
can you do raids with me?
dont have any guns anymore
what region
Eu
sell the scav start standard loot?
Sell all is not how you make profit.
Transfer valuables to your stash after a Scav raid. Then sell the rest to fence. If you’re really money hungry, transfer it all to your stash.
Just selling everything you got to Fence is barely profitable.
Yesterday I sold an entire Scav kit that had a DRD armor for 80K. The DRD armor itself on flea is like 60K.
Hey, I got a question,
I'm kinda new to the game (and lvl 7), and I struggle with a lot of things in the game :
- Surprisingly, I don't know all the maps by heart, but I start to know some of them the more I look into the interactive map on internet and the more I play in it. Is this a real issue ? I know how to locate myself quite easily but I need to alt tab to confirm my position, how is the best way to learn maps, aside from the training mode ?
- I keep dying. Even if I keep being slow and steady, checking corners, using reliefs as cover, vegetation as camouflage, etc (thx to Arma 3). Just like I learnt before. But apparently going to do a small raid just to grab a pocket watch is too difficult without getting spam camped by PMC snipers or rushed by an army of Scavs, with or without the max tier equipment I can use early game with no bunker crafting station and all lvl1 traders. I always die doing like what, 4-5 kills ? And if I can get the item, extracting without being camped is a challenge.
- And Stash management, I do a lot a scav runs to learn maps and gather equipments, but a lot of time, I got weapons that needs mag that I can't buy, or any ammos that I can buy at lvl1 traders. So everytime I die, I need to spend 60-70k rub to buy a proper gear and a gun that actually do damages to Lvl2 protection. Getting insurance for my stuff is costly and almost all the times I just gather back a helmet or something that I don't really need anymore.
That's why I'm asking for tips on "How to improve" at EFT, please ?
What level do I unlock flea market?
15
thx
Anyone got any tips to look out for when it comes to a enemy being a scav or a pmc?
K so first using an interactive map is the easiest way to learn the maps but mostly playing then teachs you better then anything else. Second, you are gonna die a lot to geared plays cause it’s mid-late wipe and pvp is something that you kinda just gotta learn overtime. Only tips i can give is to use right hand peaks and try not to peak from the same spot twice. Lastly early game ammo sucks ass and using shotguns or smg’s is probably you best bet cause you can aim for legs or head and trying to kill then via flesh damage
average tarkov experience
true
Clothing and gear are the only way to tell
The more homeless they look their probably a scav
Yea cuz I played scav and I think I shot like 3 other scavs by accident
just dont shoot unless shot at
i gunned down a scav on interchange becasue he charged into a pc room wearing pmc gear
Ok thank you for everything !
It's only been 3 days but I start remembering some spawns, routines in Woods for exemple, etc.
And yeah, I don't know when will be the next wipe because unloading 30+1 rounds of 5.56x39 and 7.69x39 into the center mass of somebody and see that he doesn't even flinsh makes me wanna press V and start running at him for better hopes of survival
Next wipe is usually around Xmas
get lvl 14, get peacekeeper lvl 2 buy m856a1
yeah
one of the earliest good rounds u will have
id get used to losing 60-70k kits, its going to happen a lot
You could also buy 762 ps off fence if you want a decent mid their ammo
Post Scriptum :
How can I improve my stamina ?! I'm used to characters walking slowly with military gears but wearing 17kg worth of equipment feels like a non-military personnel with asthma doing a marathon with over 30+ kg of equipments
you level your endurance by running while underweight
for stam you gotta run a lot while underweight
strength by running overweight
Out of 40 raids, I've left alive the AO only 3 times.
so your weight has to be white which shows your underweights
(sorry btw if my english is bad, I'm french)
your English is fine
it is fine
do not put a big focus on increasing your stamina, just try to start your raids underweight
you don’t gotta have max stats to win it’s just a slight inconvenience when moving around
But yeah, I knew starting end wipe would be hard, but I've never thought that just walking 20m towards a truck en press F on a door would take me 12 tries, 8 full kits, and a lot of hiding from snipers
... And I still haven't finished that quest. I hate being a solo french player x)
Ok !
yeah tarkov has me doing the same stuff when I started playing
I almost always do that (I economise rub because I've only 600-700k left)
also try not to run in naked because this game has a mechanic called tagged and cursed
Scavs will rush and target you if your naked
Despite of Scav karma ? (Even thought my karma is -0.59, nobody told me how to play the first day x) )
I’m level 40 and my endurance is like level 12.
I would try to increase Scav rep.
Best way to do that is too take car extracts
I tried this whole day just to try getting closer to Lvl2 trader
...Just to defend myself against a scav player in Factory
-8h down the drain
It took me more then a week to get to level 15
My first wipe, it took me ages to get level 15.
Mostly cause I’m trash
I think I spent close to 100h
I'm level 7, I downloaded the game Friday
Cause I didn’t even know quests were a thing until about 50h in
I guess levels are going to be exponentionally harder ?
Yeah
But quests also give more exp as you go
You also have more quests to choose from
You get more XP from quests as you progress but yes there is a certain point where the ability to level up is very much a slog but this happens around level 50
One small issue : Most of the quest i've unlocked need a trader Lvl2 (exemple with Armorer 1), or need to run in an open field to grab a POCKET WATCH ARGGGGF
id say later tbh
Pocket watch is sucky but you have to do it.
Pocket watch opens all other quests
It's like unlocking Jaeger : finding a paper and extract, in Woods, the most open Map with the most camouflage and covers. Simple, right ?
It took me 2 days.
Or I die going to retrieve it because I'm on the other side of the Map. Or I die getting to extraction
You mean ragman 1?
Hmmm, well I can certainly recommend the wiki, it was my source of finding out what the heck I was doing
Idk how it's called in english, sorry. My game is locked in french and i haven't found how to change it back to english, despite my main language.
Oh, I do not know if that can be changed without an account reset but I’m sure it probably can be
I never have looked because I never needed to lol
I've chosen the language when I downloaded the game
Oh
But it's only a small issue, I'll find out
Uhhhh you can try and change it in your battlestategames account
I just want to survive in Customs
Pocket watch, it's the only thing I want before leaving this Map and never going back
Well im sorry to dissapoint you but your going to have to go back there for a variety of things
As for the pocket watch
Do you have the key?
Ik, i just want to that quest and take a break from this Map at least for few days
Yea the yellow jacket with it, it’s rarely taken at this point and wipe and if it’s missing look on the ground below the jacket
Sometimes people will pick it up for XP and drop it
Is it just like pressing F then exit on scav bodies for extra XP ?
But for getting the watch itself, that area is very high traffic, there are ways to make it potentially less dangerous though
Yeah
For starters, night raids can often have less traffic with players coming through the area, the reason most players are going there is to reach another destination typically crackhouse or dorms
I swear, this is sniper alley. Any sniper on the Tower can even kill me while in the bus parking lot
Or potentially fortress
The sniper scav? There’s a second one that also spawns on the brick buildings but they aren’t often that good of a shot so long as you don’t stand still for them
PMC snipers
It was a pmc
There's a pmc Spawn just underneath
PMCs? Well he sure wasn’t up on the tower
I think
If he was up on those two tall towers he was a stinky cheater
I might be wrong, i've only few hours in the game
I don’t think there is a spawn there, far too central to the map
Oh, i looked up on the Map it's a scav on the eastern side of Skeleton
;-;
Regardless, if you are able to find a spot to hide somewhat nearby and just wait out the first little bit of the match you can safely get it probably
Getting pined down by AI is kinda humiliating
Yeah there is a sniper scav that spawns on the tower and another that spawns on the brick factory buildings
It’s your first couple raids, don’t feel bad about it
Yeah I saw that trick, but player scavs start to spawn, no ?
Your actually pretty lucky you started this wipe instead of last wipe, they overtuned the fuck out of the scavs at the beginning of the wipe lol
Yes but they are unlikely to be nowhere nearly as geared as a PMC
I'm just too traumatised by Arma 3 that I always decide to seek covers instead of just rushing head down
Well that’s not always the best idea, scavs may be not amazing shots but a gun is a gun
Meanwhile my PMC with a Bank Rober and a PP-91 "Kedr", and a dream
Hey man, don’t diss the kedr
But you will notice an extreme difference with body armour, even a class 2
That is enough to stop a lot of high flesh low pen rounds that scavs commonly carry
To explain those terms for you
Hey I survived getting the Watch, killing 6 scavs rushing me. Just to die to a guy with a class 4 against my 9x18 PM PSO gzh
A rounds “flesh” damage is the actual damage it deals whilst the “pen” is the penetrating power the round against armour
Yeah I could see how that may be tough
your going to have to ultimate rat it. low traffic pathing etc
Yeah, but early game i don't have proper ammo to have enough pen, and aiming the legs while being shot at with no meds is hard, especially if I'm bad at pvp
Ok
There’s an issue
You don’t bring meds and you don’t bring body armour
Those two will make a massive difference
you could just sit in a bush at start of raid and wait for most pmcs to path through the map and just grab it last minute
At level 1 traders you should ideally be buying something that can deal with the four most common ailments being a direct heal, a light bleed, a fracture and a heavy bleed
Grizzly
Taco do you think he has access to a grizzly?
I follow the "no gear-fear" tactic, but my money doesn't follow up. Ok I tried a lot of times buying Armor as advised, bringing meds, Ifak, etc..
It helps a lot, i'm not gonna lie.
But I always f up at some point and end up losing everything.
And I can't afford to buy a lot of full kits if I've already wasted like what, 7-8 already ? So 70-80k goes fast on my small bank account
He’s doing pocket watch dude, he does not have access to a grizzly
?
Don’t worry about it
bro might have em from looting
Alr
idk
Well for starters your scav is your best friend here, he can get you access to a free kit and a free way to get money
You can’t progress tasks with your scav besides the daily tasks fence will give you once your a certain level, 7 I think?
I heard that fence give tasks only when I have an Intel station in the bunker or my scav karma is <=-1
The intel 1 may be true, he will give you them at really any level until you get one of the scav karma redemption tasks
I would highly recommend to not ruin your scav karma
You lose it by shooting ai scavs, non traitor player scavs, scav boss guards and scav bosses, raiders, rogues, the goons and cultists are all fair game
You can gain karma by extracting as a scav, killing PMCs or traitor scavs, assisting the guards of a scav boss or a scav boss in killing a traitor scav or PMC and by taking vehicle extracts
Not necessarily
As I said, multiple ways to get karma
I have 4.56 and I sure as shit have not done 456 scav raids
best place to go for scav kills on woods?
I looked up on the wiki, I saw all the ways to get karma, but almost everything is 0.1 or 0.2
Scav town, scav bunker, sunken village, eastern rocks area
Vehicle extracts give a ton of karma
It costs by default 5000 roubles, this will fluctuate with your current karma
It can go as low as 1100 roubles
You mean as scavs that sometimes brings money, or PMCs ?
It can only be taken as a PMC
