tidal lagoon
#

i havent had proof of it but general saying is u get worse rewards when u fail timed tasks in streaks

#

but honestly, timed tasks arent worth imo until like lvl 46

#

they get much better rewards then

hearty sand
#

I don't pursue them... but if they're "along the way" -- I'll do it

tidal lagoon
#

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

primal flame
#

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

hearty sand
#

lol nice

drifting jolt
#

the left side of the store, north side, is a fuck ton of food spawns

#

literally like 75+ food spawns

primal flame
#

i love when you have a talk with player scavs and they shoot you in the face

drifting jolt
#

but you can usually tell if they intend to kill you

primal flame
#

there fault

drifting jolt
#

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

primal flame
#

bad scav rep for theem

drifting jolt
#

There's some players who give no fucks about their scav rep, and only scav to screw other people's scav raids up

primal flame
#

thats annoying af

#

scav rep is like really good tho

drifting jolt
primal flame
#

one time i loaded with really good shit and extracted

drifting jolt
#

so when they do scav, it's to be an ass

primal flame
#

thats dumb

drifting jolt
#

I do, just because I like to

primal flame
#

i like them tho there kinda fun

drifting jolt
#

theyre*, but yes 🙂

solid pawn
#

just got 2 60 rounders full of ssa ap in factory :3

serene hatch
#

anyone want to play and help me out? i’m so clueless 😭 i just got the game

drifting jolt
#

if you want, you can call me and ill stream

#

and ill start going over stuff

serene hatch
#

i just died in my scav raid cause my gun jammed and idk how to fix it

#

don’t know the extracts anyway

bold kernel
#

or like reinstall

#

whatever its called in bsg launcher

#

verify installation i think

drifting jolt
#

then 'check chamber/fix malfunction' key

serene hatch
#

idk either of those

#

i wouldnt of been able to extract anyway

drifting jolt
serene hatch
#

it didnt

#

it just said inspect weapon

#

i just need help learning the binds, extracts and loot mostly

drifting jolt
#

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)

opaque venture
#

i know that its not an beginner question but can anyone check/tell me how much is pumpkin going for rn on flea?

bold kernel
#

300 something k

#

200

opaque venture
#

opaque venture
bold kernel
#

#

openable one 200

opaque venture
#

but thank u too

#

have a nice day/night

bold kernel

primal flame
#

how to check scav rep

serene hatch
#

whats scav rep

tidal lagoon
#

scav rep is fence rap

#

u can check it on the trader screen

drifting jolt
#

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

serene hatch
#

oh

#

i dont get very far anyway

drifting jolt
#

i cannot overstate that enough

serene hatch
#

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

drifting jolt
serene hatch
#

i have the wiki thing for the interactive maps

drifting jolt
bold kernel
serene hatch
#

not like it matters ill die or just not find the extraction zone

bold kernel
#

it has images relative to quest locations if u click on them

#

same for extracts

bold kernel
#

as an example

serene hatch
#

the one time i actually extracted i was playing with someone and they brought me to the extract lol

bold kernel
#

thats how youll learn too

serene hatch
#

yeah i havent played with anyone since so ive just kept dying or going mia

bold kernel
#

what region are u

serene hatch
#

us

#

east

bold kernel
#

2bad

serene hatch
#

why

bold kernel
#

east eu

#

try and find someone to show u around

#

thats ur best bet for now i think

serene hatch
#

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

edgy mist
#

anyone wanna help me gain some basic knowledge of tarkov

golden quartz
#

any one know where i can get a 60rnd mag for gunsmith 2

tidal lagoon
#

zb-014 on woods, lavatory lvl 2, raiders and some boss guards

edgy mist
bold kernel
#

Woods med camp

tidal lagoon
#

medical camp on woods and crackhouse on customs is normal spots

#

but they can be found very many places

edgy mist
#

idk where that is

#

sorry im new can you show me a picture?

bold kernel
tidal lagoon
edgy mist
#

oh yeahhh

#

thats the one place i keep spawning and dying to a scav with that one weird ak with 10 bullets

tidal lagoon
#

time to stop dying and killing him

bold kernel
tidal lagoon
#

pretty real

edgy mist
#

no money no guns

#

cant :/

tidal lagoon
#

scav

drifting jolt
#

^

serene hatch
#

what’s like the easiest way to learn extracts

drifting jolt
#

play the map

bold kernel
#

by playing

edgy mist
#

yeah im also tryna figure that out

bold kernel
#

or go offline and circle all routes in the map

drifting jolt
serene hatch
#

i’ve tried it gets so boring dying constantly or just going mia

bold kernel
#

use offline mode

#

run around the map with a map up

drifting jolt
bold kernel
#

on browser

serene hatch
bold kernel
#

try and recognize where u are first when u spawn

#

then just use landmarks

#

doesnt get easier than that

tidal lagoon
#

try to learn customs before woods, its easier then u might feel like u actually accomplish something

bold kernel
#

yea woods is just wood everywhere

serene hatch
#

i play customs only

bold kernel
#

hard to learn at first

bold kernel
drifting jolt
bold kernel
#

fairly easy map

#

balanced size

tidal lagoon
#

nearly all spawns on customs have enough landmarks without moving from spawn to find out where you are

bold kernel
#

truly

#

except for that one dog spawn

#

in the back of checkpoint

tidal lagoon
#

kinda ass but easy to know where u are

bold kernel
#

yes

#

bro my premium

#

ran out

tidal lagoon
#

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

bold kernel
#

or like recognize

tidal lagoon
#

yes

bold kernel
#

on customs atleast

misty bear
#

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 😦

tidal lagoon
#

you are doing part 1?

misty bear
#

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

tidal lagoon
#

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

misty bear
#

im using the online maps and going to their spawn areas, are there some that arent guaranteed spawns?

tidal lagoon
#

honestly dont know, from my experience every spawn spawns scavs at least once per raid

bold kernel
brisk pollen
#

When you here "Chigga bong bong bong" you've completed a quest

leaden remnant
#

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

fierce fable
#

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

#

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

pearl palm
#

LCtrl + RMB

mint sky
#

The standard is CTRL + right click

pearl palm
#

pageup + page down for zero

mint sky
#

And if you mean zeroing PG up and Down should the trick

pearl palm
#

for swapping zooms if u meant that, its left alt + RMB

primal flame
primal flame
restive linden
#

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

#

pearl palm
primal flame
#

i did that

pearl palm
#

check ur binds then

primal flame
#

#

rmp lctrl

#

b mb

pearl palm
#

are u holding ctrl and thenp ressing rmb?
are u sure it has another scope on it? show

restive linden
#

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

pearl palm
restive linden
#

true ngl, 2nd wipe so i guess its worth it to go push as much as possible

pearl palm
#

u can still do some quests to unlock gear
most notably aacpc quest
u also have kappa quest and lightkeeper

restive linden
#

will be easier next wipe

#

aacpc?

pearl palm
mint sky
#

@primal flame Which scope do you use ?

pearl palm
#

requires 30 pmc kills inside the mall on interchange

#

unlocks one of the best armors

primal flame
#

ima try to find it tho

#

all ik is it had a scope on top of it

restive linden
#

if u sold it on flea market u can see the name in the msg

primal flame
#

hamr

restive linden
#

yea thats it

#

its an optional scope on top

#

u need to add it aswell first

#

to use it

primal flame
#

oh

mint sky
#

It has to be installed tho

restive linden
#

here it is

primal flame
#

i though it was alredy there

#

becuase it looked like a scope

restive linden
#

yea it looks like it is already there but its actually not

primal flame
#

ok

#

mb lol

restive linden
#

thought the same when i started 💀

primal flame
#

i was really confused lol

empty plover
#

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?

honest hatch
#

can someone recommend me a adar build

glad swan
#

can someone help me do some runs

bold kernel
#

run a grip and tactical device of ur choice

#

its like 20k without grip and flashlight laser or whatever u want

honest hatch
#

i cant attach a grip with that stock lol

bold kernel
#

or do u want something higher tier

bold kernel
#

oh u mean pistol grip

#

im saying foregrip

honest hatch
#

oh oh

bold kernel
#

what lvl are you

honest hatch
bold kernel
#

oh shit alright

#

rengawr had a very good budget adar

honest hatch
bold kernel
#

#

ill try and find it

honest hatch
#

alr thx

bold kernel
main violet
#

@bold kernel do you have a svds build?

bold kernel
#

svds only really has one build

#

or 2

honest hatch
bold kernel
#

u either run meta or close to stock

bold kernel
#

just run a diff scope

#

since that shit is racks right now

#

and maybe suppressor

#

the rest should be about 100k

restive linden
#

i think u can use carbon(white cream one) handguard

#

has same recoil as that one but cheaper

bold kernel
#

yea thats the alien handguard

bold kernel
#

this from someone i killed

#

if u can afford

#

dont know if its good ion run svd

restive linden
#

u forgot the buttpad also 😛

bold kernel
#

yea that too

restive linden
#

i either run precision stock or that one with buttpad

bold kernel
#

but i dont think he can buy it off traders

restive linden
#

precision is +1 recoil

#

but less ergo

bold kernel
#

yea i personally think its not worth the tradeoff

#

so much ergo for 1 recoil

#

atleast for dmrs

restive linden
#

adar becomes laser beam

bold kernel
#

real

#

but gen3 is like 100 on flea

restive linden
#

whats going on with ping

bold kernel
#

nothing for me

#

it was tweaking an hour ago so bad

restive linden
#

u on eu

bold kernel
#

yh

restive linden
#

spikes to 160 for 4-5 sec and goes back to normal

bold kernel
#

yea

#

thats what happened

restive linden
#

doesnt matter ngl

#

im camping interchange

bold kernel
#

but it went to like 9k

#

once

restive linden
#

to place chains for chumming

bold kernel
#

ion even bother doing that

#

cba to unlock mutant

#

i run dmrs only this wipe

whats with all the scav on scav violence?

mental coral
#

^exactly i just killed a pmc that was loaded and got rushed by like 4 player scavs trying to steal my stuff so annoying

proper summit
#

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?

hearty lava
#

Yes

unkempt egret
#

Best to wait for a sale tbh

languid owl
#

not the valday

#

do not use the valday on an svd

bold kernel
#

pretty sure ive taken off the sight that was on it

whole thistle
proper summit
#

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

sharp socket
#

dawg tagilla is ridiculously buff

whole thistle
#

youre getting stuff and never losing it

sharp socket
#

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

thorn leaf
#

@sharp socket you carry 4 guns on you at all times?

solid pawn
sharp socket
#

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

proper summit
whole thistle
#

Woods is good

proper summit
#

Okay I figured I like reserve but I don’t know any exits

reserve's extracts are super annoying

#

they force you into and through a lot of pvp areas

anyone want to play and help me out? im new

oh my bad

wary linden
#

scav bosses spawn at the beginning of the raid, right?

spare hound
#

help
question

wary linden
#

they dont pop in mid raid?

spare hound
#

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

dry flint
spare hound
#

i did that twice and both times thermal to then skull
ill try again tho :)

dry flint
#

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"

wintry girder
#

is this the thing that makes the bosses like you

dry flint
#

lucky find

wintry girder
#

sorry playing tarkov made me unable to read

spare hound
#

i got robbed lol

dry flint
spare hound
#

yeah its not pretty

dry flint
# spare hound 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

spare hound
#

yeah im just gonna reset
im lvl 3 with 2 pmc kills nothing at all to care about

dry flint
#

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

spare hound
#

i kill everything

dry flint
# spare hound 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

proper summit
#

What’s the red smoke canister do?

#

And how do I use it

dry flint
proper summit
#

Oh yea that thingy I got it in a scav raid and it wouldn’t let me use it at all

latent quarry
#

should I buy a scav junk box? I got 1.68 mil rn

shrewd fog
#

@latent quarry do you have one already

latent quarry
#

no

shrewd fog
#

then yes

whole thistle
#

theyre really good

shrewd fog
#

I aim to get 2 of them a wipe

latent quarry
#

alright

#

thanks

shrewd fog
#

np

raven quarry
proper summit
#

What do they do?

#

Is it just storage

raven quarry
#

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

proper summit
#

Dayum so it’s like a mistery box too

whole thistle
raven quarry
#

still very worth tho

whole thistle
#

oh i thought you meant hideout scav case lol

proper summit
#

Ahh gotcha

dry flint
# proper summit 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

If I buy something from Flea, is it considered found in raid for tasks?

drifting jolt
#

can craft it to be found in raid though

pseudo stirrup
#

Kk I thought since it had the check mark from the seller that it would be FIR

drifting jolt
#

but loses FIR status when it's posted

whole thistle
#

when its bought more like

cause you can take down an offer and get it back fir

so like is my kit not good or something? i hear ppl talk about the vector a lot

dry flint
soft tapir
#

i got two tapped by a scav with this armour

drifting jolt
soft tapir
#

i only have ragman 2 and flea market

#

so what armour should i run

#

that isnt crap

drifting jolt
#

that's a decent armor for what you have available

tulip kettle
#

i just realized toolboxes are literallly so good

#

they consistently give really good loot

drifting jolt
#

@tulip kettle had this scav run earlier where i just basically looted like 20 filing cabints

#

easily 2 mil

tulip kettle
#

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

soft tapir
#

how do i do quests the require me going to dorms

drifting jolt
#

or just rush it when you get 1 of the 2 close spawns and hope for the best

dry flint
weak mirage
#

Do Them very early or very late if youre not confident at pvp i guess

#

In The raid ofc

calm swan
#

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

ancient valley
#

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

calm swan
#

save it for another factory task

ancient valley
#

i do my factory tasks naked

calm swan
#

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

ancient valley
#

im solo tho so i feel like im gonna get clapped

calm swan
#

if u bring a shit gun u might get clapped

tulip kettle
calm swan
#

if u bring an actual good gun you should be thanos on factory bro with a slick altyn

tulip kettle
#

i never bring anything good to factory

ancient valley
#

thats how i killed him

calm swan
#

lol

#

u shouldnt sell it though they give u chump change

weak mirage
#

Altyns are impossible to get

#

You might wanna use it later

drifting jolt
#

Wearing that stuff more often will help you get used to getting shot and not dying

weak mirage
#

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

drifting jolt
#

do you need the money?

#

if not

#

use it

ancient valley
#

im at 4 mil

drifting jolt
#

all good though

weak mirage
#

R3d is The one asking

#

If He should sell or keep

drifting jolt
#

oh my apologies

#

im dumb

weak mirage
#

😂

drifting jolt
#

@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

ancient valley
#

im gonna try run a labs raid with it

drifting jolt
#

that's a good shout

ancient valley
#

i dont know the map very well but i wanna get the micro controller

drifting jolt
#

labs is a little easier to keep track of your squadmates

ancient valley
#

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

how do i learn a map?

or is it possible to learn the map by playing scav

I'm still spawning in

#

Like I said my OC is a tad bad

#

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

bold kernel
#

ok

obsidian spoke
#

Did u shoot me?

bold kernel
#

oh

#

got scared

obsidian spoke
#

Yeah it's fine just don't do it again,I'll teach you some tmmr when I get on,see ya

bold kernel
#

bye

obsidian spoke
#

Sorry I couldn't teach u anything tn

#

hope u at least learnt something from our chat tho

bold kernel
obsidian spoke
#

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

bold kernel
#

ok thanks

#

how i know you are it next time

obsidian spoke
#

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

bold kernel
#

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?

bold kernel
obsidian spoke
#

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

bold kernel
obsidian spoke
#

If your a pmc you should bc they'll try to kill you but if your scav don't

bold kernel
#

ok thanks

obsidian spoke
#

No problem and if you need anymore advice don't hesitate to ask me or anyone here

bold kernel
#

one last ask what if scav shoots me and i am scav to should i shoot him?

obsidian spoke
#

Yes,bc they are traitor scav unless you shot a friendly scav first bc then your a traitor scav

bold kernel
#

so i could be a pmc steal scavs clothing and kill scavs with it`?

obsidian spoke
#

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

bruh

obsidian spoke

so only benefit is that bosses dont shoot you and you have better scav gear?

tall sphinx

worth getting it to 12.0?

obsidian spoke

You can use the good rep to get close to bosses and get a easy kill,and maybe I'm not sure

tall sphinx

wont be killing bosses as a scav

obsidian spoke
#

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

tall sphinx

i guess not XD

#

i was farming kaban and they were shooting at me no matter what

obsidian spoke

I think you need the flare pistol and the poison green flare in it to be friendly with bosses as a pmc

pick up any 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 ?

keen fossil
# vagrant sequoia Hey, I got a question, I'm kinda new to the game (and lvl 7), and I struggle wit...

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

keen fossil
#

true

keen fossil
#

The more homeless they look their probably a scav

hollow wasp
#

Yea cuz I played scav and I think I shot like 3 other scavs by accident

tidal lagoon
#

just dont shoot unless shot at

vapid badger
#

i gunned down a scav on interchange becasue he charged into a pc room wearing pmc gear

vagrant sequoia
#

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

tidal lagoon

next wipe is december

#

ur ammo has no penetration, you need to go for legs or head

keen fossil
tidal lagoon
#

get lvl 14, get peacekeeper lvl 2 buy m856a1

yeah

tidal lagoon

one of the earliest good rounds u will have

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

keen fossil
#

for stam you gotta run a lot while underweight

tidal lagoon
#

strength by running overweight

vagrant sequoia
keen fossil

so your weight has to be white which shows your underweights

vagrant sequoia
#

(sorry btw if my english is bad, I'm french)

keen fossil
#

your English is fine

tidal lagoon
#

it is fine

#

do not put a big focus on increasing your stamina, just try to start your raids underweight

keen fossil
#

you don’t gotta have max stats to win it’s just a slight inconvenience when moving around

vagrant sequoia
#

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)

also try not to run in naked because this game has a mechanic called tagged and cursed

I'm level 7, I downloaded the game Friday

keen fossil

Cause I didn’t even know quests were a thing until about 50h in

vagrant sequoia

I guess levels are going to be exponentionally harder ?

keen fossil
#

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

vagrant sequoia

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

tidal lagoon

id say later tbh

bold kernel
keen fossil
#

Pocket watch opens all other quests

vagrant sequoia
#

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

vagrant sequoia
#

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?

vagrant sequoia

#

Room 205

sharp socket
#

Sometimes people will pick it up for XP and drop it

vagrant sequoia
#

Is it just like pressing F then exit on scav bodies for extra XP ?

sharp socket
#

But for getting the watch itself, that area is very high traffic, there are ways to make it potentially less dangerous though

sharp socket
#

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

vagrant sequoia
sharp socket
#

Or potentially fortress

sharp socket
vagrant sequoia
#

It was a pmc

#

There's a pmc Spawn just underneath

sharp socket
#

PMCs? Well he sure wasn’t up on the tower

vagrant sequoia
#

I think

sharp socket
#

If he was up on those two tall towers he was a stinky cheater

vagrant sequoia
#

I might be wrong, i've only few hours in the game

sharp socket
#

I don’t think there is a spawn there, far too central to the map

vagrant sequoia
#

;-;

sharp socket
#

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

vagrant sequoia
#

Getting pined down by AI is kinda humiliating

sharp socket
#

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

vagrant sequoia

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

#

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

vagrant sequoia
#

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

sharp socket
#

A rounds “flesh” damage is the actual damage it deals whilst the “pen” is the penetrating power the round against armour

sharp socket
vapid badger
vagrant sequoia
#

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

sharp socket
#

Ok

#

There’s an issue

#

You don’t bring meds and you don’t bring body armour

#

Those two will make a massive difference

vapid badger
#

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

sharp socket
#

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

#

Taco do you think he has access to a grizzly?

vagrant sequoia

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

You can’t progress tasks with your scav besides the daily tasks fence will give you once your a certain level, 7 I think?

vagrant sequoia
#

I heard that fence give tasks only when I have an Intel station in the bunker or my scav karma is <=-1

sharp socket
#

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

vagrant sequoia
#

I understood what scav karma is a little too late tbh

#

I'm already at -0.58

sharp socket
#

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

It costs by default 5000 roubles, this will fluctuate with your current karma
