I’m on this server because I like the community, and I enjoy helping others with the game that I enjoy.
If you want to call me an elitist that's fine. You're supposed to have difficulty IDing your target at distance. You need to see details. Pants, shirts, armor types, gun quality
Okay so im sure u are familiar with a game called mordhau, so mordhau is a hack and slash medieval sword fighting game, so this game can be put on a comparing scale to chivalry one and the new chivalry which is 2 and i have been playing mordhau for 3 years and i made it top 10 once but i still lose against stuff that i should know because someone knows how to tweak it some way. Lets take another example sekiro a souls game compare it to all of the dark souls fames and bloodborn and elden ring all of them share the same playing style and same movement tweaks but sekiro made it to be the hardest souls game ever because of the RNG chance you need in the game and how difficult the game can be
Helping others think the same things as you, and the community is just like you so yeah ofc you'd like it
This is assistance for beginners. IDing targets takes practice. You'll get better. Just don't let yourself get frustrated over it
All of that isn't consistent.
I am not telling you to shut up. I am trying to explain how I identify Scav from PMC, in hopes that you can use my techniques and improve.
It's one of the more accurate things about tarkov
its not 100% consistent but its quite consistent tho
IDing is difficult
And that was separates tarkov from other shooting games like dayz or other games though they are similar but they are soo different in the way they play
enough to the point where it will barely ever fail you
And it shouldn't be in a game of one shots.
IDing difficult at times yes.
It should be, because this is a difficukt game
I agree.
They keep focusing on the common scenarios of AIs running around and making it super obvious they are AIs
There's a good type of difficult and bad type of difficult.
why should it be super obvious tho
Literally the diamonds, while "NOT REALISTIC", were added to prevent frustration
Tarkov is not the type of game that adapts towards it’s players. The players have to adapt to the game itself.
"And it shouldn't be in a game of one shots."
and i dont know what a game of one shots mean
I'll be frank. There's no argument you can give me to convince me that tarkov needs good guy bad guy icons
This is just a glorified way of saying "I'm a amazing, god gamer for ADAPTATING"
He means that you can be head tapped, I believe.
I NEVER said icons. You guys have said all of what I've said, I've never argued for icons. Just complained about this stupid issue, but ofc people see things in black and white
i head tap people in cs all the time
I am not at all boasting myself or my skills. I’m saying this because it’s how it is.
Fr.
Ok then what is it you want out of the visual side of tarkov with IDing
You are, you're not saying it, it's in your head.
I am far from a good player. There are way better players out there.
You know what? Stop talking
I'm not finished
lol
I literally have done nothing to you.
Since you're going to keep ignoring the actial point
😭
Let me spell it out for you
The actual point is that you’re having a massive skill issue for a game that clearly is not for you.
We’ve talked about this before. You just got upset.
I’m not here to argue. I’m trying to help.
That’s mb.
Is bubbascal a beginner? If not then yeah I agree with a previous comment that this should move to eft chat
They could add more consistent tells to the scenarios where it's difficult to tell. ONE example being fully geared PMCs where their base clothes slightly resemble scavs and they're crouching next to a body and aren't making voice lines. If you make the wrong move here, you get punished. If you get closer, you might die if they have headphones on their character.
Notice how they don't have an actual, good response to this, just "SKILL ISSUE, LEAVE LOL"
beginner-semi beginner, i was just joking about moving it to eft chat cuz this is average eft chat convo
Nah, I'm not inviting more blue names to dogpile, and this concerns beginners
And yeah, this is exactly what I knew you were arguing for. "ANY CRITICISM = SKILL ISSUE, AND NEEDS TO GTFO"
That's how you KNOW you're the problem
any arguement to what u say "ELITIST"
So what? I'm frustrated. Does that refute anything I've said?
Oh wait, it doesn't.
Guys, am I doing something wrong?
yes
Because your "easy solutions" are memorizing entire tables.
Or am I a massive schizophrenic.
Saying skill issue is a carry over from dark souls and saying git gud. It's harsh, but ultimately accurate. It is sometimes difficult in some scenarios to tell the difference between pmc and scav. It should be
But generally speaking if I have a scope I can ID a pmc in all situations
Please tell me.
No but it makes criticizing your terrible points pretty useless cause you seem very emotional
They're going to say no.
never said to do that u just decided to interpret it as memorize everything
u are being alive
Shit, my fault bro.
real
I’ll stop rn.
Dark Souls doesn't quite have the same issues, I know because I've played it. There is a good kind of difficult, and bad kind.
Because your solutions INVOLVE memorizing where scavs spawn and entire patterns in spawns
I've WATCHED this videos, I literally know lol
i never said anything about memorizing spawns
You would have said it at some point.
or maybe i wouldnt
I couldn’t tell you about player Scav spawns.
@bold kernel I thought you were going to stop?
just a guy who needs to learn what things look like and move on
The real thundershock?!?!
I'm a bit worried about staff so I'm gonna leave now, I wasted my time with closed mind people anyways
Have fun.
i agree
oh no, we need more whining because of a non-issue
Fixed it, sorry for giving you a witty reply. 🙂
Anyways. What kinda helmet do you guys use?
thanks
Ratnick helm ofc
I always use the TC-2001.
Wait so what was your question?
Ratnik ftw
ulach
ear cover makes it better than TC series imo
A liquid helmet wouldn't do much good 😂
and ulach always feels like I'm wasting money
My only issue with ulach is no NVGs. Good for day raids though, for sure.
The other important thing to consider is this is from the context of you being a scav correct? It's ultimately inconsequential. If you cant positively id the target as pmc or scav, just leave the area
LMAO. 💀
I was not expecting that.
ye i dont use ulach for night times, buy a tc nromally for night or use exfil or smt i have around
I would use the exfil but it’s so expensive. Am poor.
I did kind of spend all my roubles on marked keys.
I think as a scav you are "supposed" to die to stuff. Not every scav-raid is meant to be successful.
We're not arguing this anymore.
Oh yeah, for sure.
It’s a no risk, no reward type thing.
@spare robin what was your question?
I don't have a question? lol
This is true as well.
Oh, then what was all the arguing about?
please don't bring it back
As PMC you don’t beed to identify. Just shoot it if it moves.
We're not bringing this up again
Aight
You shoot too much, you have a constant lack of boolets
I think the main problem with scavs is that scavs spawns with too many bullets
Like, give me a gun with any mag half loaded and that should be what I get. The remaining I should have to scavenge for!
Ew, no
I need more boolets!
Bro I have been so low on ammo lately. It’s because of the silly Cultists.
Fr
bruh im lvl 3 cant even get as ffar as extracting without pmc killing me or player
Might start bringing an extra stack just for the event.
Practice maps with scav-runs 😄
Event has new players fucked up rn.
^
are practice mode raids also impacted by event?
Or you could load in to maps with offline-mode. Which honestly is really useful to new players.
I’m not sure.
At least if it is, you can have a normal practice raid by not killing Zryachiy.
I should be on later tonight about 8 hours from now. If you're playing, send me a DM you can roll with my squad
Mostly just doing woods. Can do other maps for your low level quests.
i think you need to enable bosses
for them to be there
So i bought the game yesterday guys would anyone play with me and teach me some stuff please

Escape From Tarkov is an extremely overwhelming and complicated game that provides some of the absolute best and most heart pounding FPS gameplay out of any game right now. In this video I aim to give you everything you need to know...
2022 but teaches u the basics
I could help but it won't be right now. I wont be in game until about 7 hours from now.
can like
class 1 armor stop anything at all?
just curious cant find any info anywhere
it has a ricochet chance i guess xD
mb a buckshot pellet at range but that wont kill u anyways
can someone provide me with all location of zyrachi on custom?
he wanders brah
He's got the same programming Santa did
so he can go pretty much anywhere
Found him, mostly near the 2 big gates/icecream spot or road near ruaf
what maps are good to scav on right now as i keep disconnecting in iinterchange
u need to try a different server not a different map my guy
So I bought 1 hk and it gave me 2 and a huge i mean huge error
You broke it
what game shud i play
Banned
😱

war thunder
i used to play a few years ago
i played with snow and violet tho
old email got gone tho
how do u lose a email 😭
In the halloween event, is there only one escape?
only when someone kills the event boss
although in the event of a failed ritual
I did see that the normal extracts did come back
at least on interchange
i guess i killed the event boss by acident (maybe)
Are the DFS flares even useful?
what are the scav cooldown timers for each rep
like
can i see
how much my coolodown is
depending on my rep?
Not really
Also https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Scavs
Upgrading the intelligence center in your Hideout will allow you to reduce the cooldown timer for the Scav game mode:
Level 1 Intelligence center: -15%
Level 3 Intelligence center: -20% (-35% in total)
Just take a glance at the timer next time you're out
Does anybody have any good tips on getting to level 15 the quickest
tasks will always be your quickest way to level up by far
but some other good ways to level are:
killing scavs (headshot kills give the most xp)
killing anything really
healing
alr
do you have any tips for killing pmc with a pistol
Factory is the best way to do that task
second ever labs raid and i died to a cheater
how tf is the new event fun
i love walking around on customs as a scav in dorms finding the machinery key next minute zryachi comes in i cant shoot him and he 2 taps me
It's a waste of time to focus on it at low level. Leads nowhere and you dont have access to any decent pistol ammo
first try of the day
Anyone else getting low fps? Im only getting 26 fps on reserve
Just dont do it
Anyone want to loot run?
What are the top 3 maps for beginners/loot?
Customs, woods, shoreline for most early game quests (bit of interchange aswell)
hows the pvp? Are there a lot of high level players that run through those?
High level chads usually go labs or reserve
Customs/woods are your best chances for chill gameplay I'd say
Okay dope thanks
not reserve 👍
Interchange is coinflip for me usually, in theory higher end players aren't running interchange as much but occasionally I see some pretty stacked fellas near the start of raid at the computer rooms or at the rare loot spawn in goshan
more high levels on customs
Maybe right now cause of the event, but usually not.
usually in my experience on my servers customs is either high levels or complete timmys
never seen anyone above 40 on reserve because it is a pretty cheeks map
no reason to go there
and there’s like 3 quests
an1 tryna help me do bunker pt 1
I also have to do bunker pt 1. I can kinda help because I've done it before but its been a while so idk how well it would go
@sleek imp ive done it aswell jus tricky w this event and shi
Which aren’t affected again?
i keep doim th task itself jus jeep dying before i can extract
I havent even played during the event and ik very little about it but I hear everyone complain about it
Basically the event is quite simple
Zryachy roams the map passively
if you kill him
You spawn cultists, have 8 mins to kill htem
If you fail Zryachy will come back as vengeful
and if you shoot at him your gun will jam
Also all extracts will be closed until ritual is successful
Thats the jist
Seems cool but also annoying
very annoying
Why was i tagged and cursed? I went in fully kitted. Had them chase me all around the map i ended up running out of ammo 😭
What map?
Reserve map
You had armor?
Yeah i was fully kitted
Then maybe you weren't tagged&cursed, just unlucky
They was hunting me like a pack of dogs haha
Was glukhar on the map?
Im not to sure i didnt see him
I believe scavs are more aggressive when the boss is alive
I killed 2 bosses but not sure which as it didnt say boss killed in the kill feed
ohhhh he killed the cultists, the ritual was a success and he got tagged and cursed because of the effect vengful zyrachiy causes
Anyone down to tour guide a level 5 veteran with 2k hours?
havent played in a while
can do NAE ❤️
I haven't kept up with the events and I think this is the weirdest message I've ever read in this server
is the event still up?

Community supplied rundown below
Any new players want want help from an experienced player? I'm bored and down to run some raids, I just gotta host on Texas servers bc my shit internet
how can i do extortionist quest if i dont have key?
is there even any way
cuz i cant buy it on flea
you get the key from a dead scav between RUAF roadblock and crachhouse in customs. he is the one in the broken fence and in the grass
unknown key*
is it guarenteed spawn?
yep, unless someone spawned close and went and picked it up/threw it away. its a guaranteed 1 time spawn on that scav
per customs raid
yes
alr thx
TBH I'm late but it seems like the event is bugged, and all extracts will sometimes remain closed even if you successfully stop the ritual
Which all seems odd
Kinda cringe
will i lose scav rep for killing the cultists
no, blast them
when halloween event end
which map spawns the most sniper scavs?
customs
actually its technically streets, but streets is much larger
yep
customs have more consistent spawns. like 3 possible areas where sniper scavs can spawn. streets has plenty but not all of them spawn at the same time, making it harder to actually find ones since they are spread apart
do they spawn immedietly into raid?
shoreline is good for farming them
since they spawn together instead of spread out
oh hes fallen
in the big bush
no, but very soon after start
next to hole in fence
meh, shorelines too large imo
customs has the tower scav u can grab from most of the map
@spare robin once they close they stay closed, success or not.
anyone having a problem of not seeing the saber light in the middle of the game?> also i though the person killed the boss get all the extract?
literally it spawned right next me and i saw the them doing the reviving thingy but i saw no lights...wtf
Cringe
will red reble sell for 3.5 mill
if the cheapest one on flea is also around 3.5 mil then probably
not sure tho
where is good to complete tarkov shooter part 6?
How the heck do I stop the bleeding? I died just bleeding out. Bandages wouldn't let me use.
Been doing practice raids so I can get used to the game more
light bleed
also light
heavy bleeds
where can i find 2 or 3 6L31 mags on woods
highest chances to spawn weapon parts are in USEC camp and attachmenet shed. theres also a superstition that the specific 60 round mags have a high chance to spawn in zb-014 extract in woods. but honestly, its easier to just craft the mags in lavatory 2
I'm just running practice raids as I have a lot to lose after getting the $150 version of the game. Also trying to get used to the sensitivity of the gun.
zb014 bunker
or craft them
oh right i forgot it can be crafted
¯_(ツ)_/¯
4 30 rounders and kek tape
Praise kek
Where's a good place to find flashlights?
traders
earliest flashlights can be found on both mechanic(the gtl 21 and surefire) and peacekeeper(regular flashlight that requires a 25mm ring mount)
wait can it even be crafted for prapors quest?
yes, crafted items have FIR status for some reason
oh ok i thought i had to find all 3 in the same raid lol
ill check tmr
its like the ice cream cones quest or something
any items that need to be 'found in raid' that can be crafted can be turned in
so you can sell it on flea
what cases hold weapon mods/attachments?
weapons cases, thicc cases, item cases
quality reserves loot
although audio is fucked
can hear people in bunker
abovge ground
nothing new
very new
ive ran a shit ton on reserve this wipe
this patch is the first time ive had this bug
@vital oasis youve been able to hear people running down to D2 from dome for like 2 wipes
above ground that is. like right behind pawn
legit ive never had this till this week haha but yeah im sure it is been bad
should i go be a camper if im broke
Scav raids. 
you dont have to 'camp', just be more methodical
nice and i lsot my best kit to a hacker
ion know what that means
me·thod·i·cal
/məˈTHädək(ə)l/
adjective
done according to a systematic or established form of procedure.
"a methodical approach to the evaluation of computer systems"
(of a person) orderly or systematic in thought or behavior.
"she was so methodical, she kept everything documented"
aight
means to be smarter
move with intent
dont just wander
know where youre going next
have a goal in each raid
and once you complete your goal extract
i just try to do a quest
but each time a 3 squad come to kill me in dorms
dorms isnt fun
only go to dorms if you get 1 of the 2 closest spawns, or wait 15-20 minute sbefore you go
TIL bosses can loot
he's not looting
is the duffle bag sound not there? cause i heard him go through it
what ammo is that
weird, it isnt picking up on the duffle bag sound. thats how i knew he was there(or atleast i thought a pmc)
m995 and 556a1
you fucked him up quickly
what was he doing
nah, i didnt hear the duffle in that clip
he just peaked i didnt make any noise and instant headshot me
and i did right peak
prolly did make noise
peakres advantage + desync
so thats like
half a second before u even see him
or register him
what is peakers advantage
whoever peaks first gets like 100-200ms of faster reaction time vs the person gettin peaked
why
ur brain doesnt register the information
internet isnt instant
pretty much every FPS game suffers from peaker's advantage
also yea internet
and average recation time is about a 1/4 of a second
so between that and the internet
create peaker's advantage
it's always better to swing than to be swung on
what if he's aiming at where you want to peak
if youre getting swung, but are indoors, and they dont know where you are, that will help mitigate peaker's advantage
but if they know where you are AND they swing you first
then they will always have the upperhand
unless u got like 0ms reaction time then it wont be as big
most pros have like 200
even the fastest reaction times are only around .2 of a second
i see what you saying
https://humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime
u can go try and test it
Reaction Time Test: The simple, accurate online reaction time tester.
this event really fucked my rub up
let me try
im averageing like 196 constantly idek
oo good one
damn
i got 202 rn
is like the amount of time he has on u
monitor is a big one too
for sure
the newest tech in monitors actually has significant delay compared to something liek old CRT televisions
im getting sub .2 almost every time!
www
got 166ms a second ago
i heard about it, but its like a $1500 or some shit
yea overpriced for like maybe minimal of difference
i mean, if youre a pro gamer sure
but that's the only actual practical application of such a monitor
im aevrageing like 170 now
nice
average is 273 it says
so we're about a whole 1/10th of a second off
which is dope
or 1/10th of a second faster rather
there's got a be a maximum fastest speed
cause your brain can only process info but so quickly
yea
@orchid isleim doing this test stoned and am still getting sub .2 lol
first wipe?
second
💪 yessa same except running on 3 hours of sleep
fr?
for being too good?
they say its "predictted" head start
whats the easiest way to get the 3 pmc pistol kills?
crazy
factory probably
factory
i like the full auto pm pistol
167, 166, 170, 168, 184
what ammo is best?
is the kd that bad tho?
this is too broad a question
unfortunately it's not great
for?
right, i should mention the gun first
what is the average kd
glock 17
im guessing all u can run is pst or smth
i couldnt tell you, but there are people with 15+ KDs
the chads are crazy...
bruh
buy some pso and spam legs or face
this is something more in line with someone slightly above the average player
thanks man, appriciate it
you a chad
but ive actually been avoiding PvP this wipe, and have just been trying to lvl traders
did you see rican
65m in stash is crazy
and havent even ran 200 raids yet
i always thought he was a timmy but
who?
my highest was 145 mil... someone on Reddit just cracked a billion roubles the other day
not stash value
a bil cash
@lunar ibex what r u at rn like 200?
200k yea smth like that i think
200m hehe
lmao
no he's asking Capy what his stash value is lol
yea i got that
capy is a bit of a chad
im more of a honey badger...
not quite a rat, not quite the chad
rather more an opportunistic a hole lol
my stash value doesnt shoot up super high, cause i dont run meta shit really ever
i have meta shit
i just prefer being slightly under geared
makes the kills that much more rewarding
yea running full meta is boring
i have yet to wear any tier 5 or 6 armors yet this wipe
true
it makes you feel better if you are less geared than the guy you killed
no i lied, i wore one of those super tiny lvl 6 armored rigs the other day
tt?
yea that one
its decent protection wise, but really sucks on space
one time use armor
2 if your stingy like me
tanks 1 shot
i could play a whole wipe with shotguns only and be perfectly content
except for kill quests
damn deadskull armabnd is worth 107k
oh and dspt
coudlnt delete dspt idk why
last wipe
my man, one down 2 to go
its on cooldown 3 min
check your DMs my guy
yesa send him the streets guide
just make money for like a day and u can run kits for a week
how do i kill killa
either from range(which is hard to get a sightline on him), or you can bait him to a door and he will stop long enough for you to unload and kill him
I've never even SEEN him lol
I’ve been playing the game for around 5 days now and I’m struggling bad any OGs here that got any tips for me
Put the map you're on on second monitor
Pull up mission you plan on doing on wiki
Use tarkov market to see how much items are worth
But for learning would just pick up everything you can focus on learning extracts
theres actually a trick to see if most of the bosses have spawned. once you load in to the raid(just affter the countdown). wait and look at the top right of the screen and wait for about 15-45s to see if theres a "packet loss" icon. If there is none during that time, then the boss has spawned

Thanks ima try out sum of these tips great info btw 👍
i just unlocked m855A1 and was wondering if i should use it over m856A1 because other than armor penetration it seems to be worse
armor pen is everything in that calibre. even tho m856a1 has higher flesh, itll have some issues piercing t5 armor. m855a1 has easier time to pen so its better in that scenario. This doesnt stop you from doing half n half of each both 55a1 at top and 56a1 at bottom once armor has been damaged and pierced.
and 5.56xcalibre really isnt that well known for leg meta flesh damage
alr ty but it also has like 10% accuracy debuff is that a big deal
not that big of a deal unless your sniping over 100m with it. for close combat, that tiny of accuracy debuff means squat
the calibres guns mostly have good accuracy or MOA(which is the stat for accuracy). so it doesnt do much in the grand scheme of things
alright thanks
So confused... shot a dude and his buddy who was dropping scavs... i kill them... i got negative rep
cause i had to kill a few AI scavs to get out
but at least i killed the guy who killed Sriracha
anyone wanna help a new payer out. i think ive gotten the hang of it and im an experienced FPS player - i just dont know that layouts of the maps
run a couple of games
can also try #pvp-lfg
ah cool, thanks
Will every exit be available as long as the event is still active?
What junk do you guys know to always sell my scav boxes get full and im never confident on what to hold onto and what i can get rid of
for example
What is the best level 4 armor?
Tv 110 imo
What ammo do i use in my ppsh to kill zyrachi
I forgot the name but the black and white ones
stash value is a bit over 200m
liquid 105
trooper has the most ED of all t4 armor but is just armor. for armored rigs tv110 or anna m1 would be good for storage
Ty
theres a streets guide?
also ive been lagging quite a bit is there any solve or is it just internet issues lol
what type of lag
how much do you play a day
not much
im at like 400 raids
level 36
no tasking
p normal
i think i spend more time looking at main menu than playing
make sure you have the lowest ping servers selected
in launch menu
i think its set to like
the automatic one
is the event over?
nop
Hey guys kind of new player here trying to get to level 15 from na east area how do I find a player on this discord that can duo with me later tonight ?
On level 8 now , love the game just having trouble in the sense that I should be leveling up quicker I just don’t know the flow of the game yet to do so
#pvp-lfg and if u want region specific #regional-communities
it's called quests
main common problem I keep seeing is timmy's keep focusing on quests that don't do shit
look up quests needed for kappa
and follow the longest lines
don't have lvl 8 quests that lock you out of tons of other quests
Okay will continue questing thank you
how late do sniper scavs spawn
is it like
instantly after spawn
or like a few min after spawn
Sometimes off rip, sometimes after a bit of time. Very much like how normal scavs can spawn
oh ok cuz i just wanna spawn in get sniper kills and dip
Anyone want to trade a pkm for PKP? i've been trying to get pkp but only gotten pkm
You’re not allowed to trade in this server, I believe.
Aha thanks for the heads up
Looks is the main identifier. Usually PMCs are geared and have big bags, but Scavs have weird combinations of gear.
Usually bad gear as well.
Also clothes on PMCs are different than clothes on Scavs.
oh, ok thanks
Damn, that sucks. But sounds like as if the cdk key seems to belong from a banned player? I bought this game from the website, as i don't really trust the ones people sell.
It takes time to improve at identifying the two, so don’t be too hard on yourself.
Can someone help?
All servers are off ?
No it happens with me, I am in EU but everytimes I get this message.
So you can't choose server but the default one :( didnt really looked into a fix. Hit me up if you find a way out
Oh rip well I can
Where are you trying to play from? Middle of the desert?
Mars
Have you tried asking NASA for better internet speeds?
A ping of 18 minutes or so isn't really that great
i'm trying to connect my ethernet cable to the little robot roaming around my house and collecting stones
but he moove a lot
Have you tried hooking it up to the MAV?
Nah, I'll try, thx
To actually answer your question, iirc there is a ping limit for servers
So if your internet is really that bad it's possible to not be able to connect
But I'd make sure to restart your pc and router
easiest way to tell pmc from scavs apart are both from armor and bag sizes and color of their clothes. idk why, but this wipe, pmc's usually still sport the default green clothes
Does sriracha spawn when the ritual fails, or if it is completed?
The vengeful variant spawns if the ritual succeeds
Why was I hunted by guys with orange flashlights?
Scavs
All but one exit was blocked
??eventss
Should i sell GPU to therapist or wait until flea (im lvl 5)
game keeps aborting. did i just lose my kit
yes
fuck
Has been happening to me too, i have a submitted a support ticket with video evidence to them, waiting on a reply now
its been happening a lot this wipe, idk why, last wipe it didnt happen at all, some told me its because of my low ram amount (8 gigs) and that i need to make it at least 16 gigs, but yeah
im at 32 whaaaat
Wait.
thats what ppl told me, but imma check with tarkov support first, but yeah if you go into a game, and then the game kicks you out and if you try to rejoin and the game says game aborted/completed, you lose your stuff
i closed all my extras programs and it worked
but not im at 1500 ping
now
what on earth is going on
Bad connection.
yeah same shit happens to me, ive tried clearing my cache/repairing files, it has done nothing, i even have instances where the whole map is white, and i get the invisible gun problem, then die to people rushing my spawn and i cant even defend myself
do raiders spawn in bunkers during the event? I havent seen them for a while, not even their bodies
anybody willing to help a brudda get the bronze pocketwatch?
Wtf is the mappinf to change reticles in game?
Could anyone help me with what is good to keep or sell? Also the battery, matches and tank on the right would be ahuge help i dont know what might come in future tasks or not.
Did you build the genny yet?
whats that
the generator in the hideout
oh yeah
put the fuel tanks in it
Will free up some space for you and not use them at the time
if you dont turn on the genny of course
dont think bear buddy has any value tbf (dk if its needed for a future quest either but its definitely not needed for kappa)
the ciggies are needed for mechanics bad habit quest but not the apollo one i think but let me check, for the gas analyzers, youll need them for quests from therapist (unless you gave her them already then you wont need them)
2 quests for gas analyzers btw for therapists
alr ty
and the AA batteries/D batteries are only good for barters most of the time i guess
and spark plugs are also needed for car repair quest for therapist
and you can sell the TP200, theres no use for them tbf
not that i have used them
damn i was kind of hoping i could sell more i need money lol
let me check what you got that you dont need again and ill tell you
you dont need the bloodsets, NaCl, H2O2 since you can easily find them again in the raid, check what you need to build the hideout early on also, but geiger counters are not needed, zibbos are not needed, crickents are needed for a quest i think but also used as a crafting tool as well
ok so i had the dpsp or whatever it is called
made it through the bridge
started looking
killed a dude with a svd
and got sniper by the sniper with the z name
why?
Because you killed a PMC
Is it decoded?
Was your dpst encoded?
encoded
Zyrachiy on the lighthouse where your supposed to find him will shoot you if it’s not encoded and your not holding it
If you aren’t holding it out he will shoot you and the mines will activate
oh i need to hold it?
Yes
Lucky ig
anything i should be concerned about?
like do i need to keep it in my hand at all times?
Yeah so he doesn’t shoot you
if i put it on my inventory i am dead basically?
also how many enemies are in the island
anyone else not able to scav? for some reason only on my scav it gets stuck on awaiting session start and then like freezes for no reason
it just gets stuck on that
i mean
maybe someone has a bad pc?
i dunno if scav runs are the same like pcs
if all the scavs need to load or something
see thats what i thought too so i decreased my settings but i can load in on my pmc no problems even on streets so i just dont understand why it happens, i need my scav cause im poor asf
try restarting your game, delete your cache and try again
if you still cant then uh contact support idk
i forgot completely about cache, lemme try that and i restart
also do an integrity check while youre at it, you never know
currently doing that lmao
Event still on?
What's the best map to loot in for hideout items?
I'm stuck on them, which is wild because I have the materials for higher levels or other ones but am gated by stuff like vents level 2, etc
Reserve customs woods
Interchange
Thanks
Hey EFT crashes permanently every time I click "Join Again"
What to do
I restart up my computer
And restart eft many times
Always when i click join again game just crashes and theres no option to turn it off
@bold kernel when you open the launcher click "online" in the top Right corner, and then:
1.) clear cache
2.) open>logs
3.) Click one log, press ctrl+A. To select all
; press Shift+Delete, to clear all from recycling bin as well.
And then relaunch the game. If that dosent work then try and update your graphics card drivers.

Thank you much
Yea me and one of my friend get that very often, just gotta restart the game and leave ur scav that’s all u can do 😕
I'm on woods extract outskirts. counts down and then i dont extract. its green in extract-list
ran out and ran in a couple of times but cant seem to extract
any ideas?
whats armor type light or heavy? is it effect more protection with heavy?
or armor class more important?
Well i died cause extract did not work.
Still very proud of this one though.
Mosin ironsight 😎
armor type does not do anything except differentiate the heavy and light vests skill which is just repairing armors, and gives chance to enhance the armors
armor class is the most important for protecting you
and armor area too is significant
thhis game...... first a full clip in a guy zero dmg alllll absorbed he one shots me ..... now i hit a guy with single shot at least 15 times... everytime you here uh uh uh, with all hit, he just walks forward ... one shot wtf is this bs

Community supplied rundown below
where did you spawn?
Yo I just went to 3 different extraction points, all of them were supposed to be opened (yes I checked the O list). They counted down and then nothing happened
alr thx
I spawned not to far from the extract, but that should not matter when its in the list of available extracts right?
And if an extract is not active it should not even count down right?
best sight for short to medium range thats cost effective?
ironsight? xD
i said sight not chunk of metal that blocks 95 percent of the screen
haha
well i mean you did say short to medium and not medium to long. otherwise i would not have said it haha
i'm looking for a usable cheap sight that isn't the ironsight
i've been using the MRS for a while but i feel like there are cheaper better alternatives (not that the MRS is that expensive)
No because before the event, if you spawned in a specific area, youd have to cross to the other side of the map for your extracts (I.E. woods, if you spawned on outskirts side, youll have to head over to UN roadblock and not be able to extract on outskirts [but you could only for this event])
That would make sense.. except for the fact where it was green in my extract list and gave me a countdown telling me i was extracting...
bugged
yeah i figured that to so did try to go for UN but died to a PMC. was still a nice match with that 200m headshot
I prefer mostly the kobra
I think your mrs is cheaper
but kobra superiority
MRS is ass
hey anybody know how much gen 4 assault armor is worth i just found one in a scav
pretty good
depending what gen4 it is the price varies
but all are good
the most expensive one then
no
is what i mean
to sell you'll get like 100k I think
prolly a lil bit more, but these armors are banned from flea and only sell to traders
rly?
no lvl 5 or 6 armor is on flea
i have level 6 hexgrid as well
id rather have the flea money than use it unfortunately
well u dont get the flea money
you can't sell on flea sadly
yeah
I'd say always run your best gear
if you have t5 and 6 to use
use it
using better gear promotes better gameplay
and allows you to make more mistakes at less cost
weird exception to the slaap plate and bastion plate
at least if you have other stuff to match it, dont run a stock 545 ak with hexgrid altyn type shit
yeah but they don't count as armor really
yeah ofc
not really but i cannot diss the slaap, my noggin thanks me for it
fuck the slaap
(he has not used it)
it's too expensive bro
i did actually, think i ate a bullet possibly
but i aint buying that shit ever in my life
I would never use the slaap
facts
ill use it when i head eyes someone for it
it has saved me from 3 consecutive hits of m62, never stopped appreciating the amount of stuff it has saved me from since then
i bought it when it was like 100k and then i got it as an unlock at pk after the guide so
PK sells that shit? for how much
super early wipe you can find people selling it as cheap as vendor sell which is like 90k
like 400 USD or something
waaaat
after guide tho
shits 825 dollar
thats like 120-130k or smt so not that bad
but das still like 120-130k
sorry to ask but if anyone would like to run and give me some advice on how to play it would be appraciated, im like lvl 6 and pretty new at the game
anyone trying to find some help?? i need to get rid of things in my stash so i can gib kit
OK im going to dm call you in a sec
ok cool
how are you this broke HAHAHAHA
he has like 500mil stash value
oop- hahaha
capy stop trolling >:(
This probably is a very frequent and vague question, but how do I loot properly? I've seen people upset because they only got 500k roubles out of a raid, and I'm celebrating because I found an item that's worth 30k. What should I prioritise?
focus less on the price of an item, and more price per slot. like a motor will fill up 4 slots and sell for 30kish (been a while since i've checked prices) which comes to 7.5k a slot, where as if you took 4 items worth 12k, it would look like a lot less in your bag, but you are making as much money per slot you have available. same goes for stripping attachments off guns instead of carrying out the whole gun when the gun is almost worthless.
alot of it comes from just playing the game, and knowing the value of items that spawn. and then managing your inventory from there.
is the even over now?
I'm still kind of new to the game and have a couple tasks in customs (bronze watch). Anyone willing to do a couple runs with me? Thanks
Cool thanks let me know when youre ready
I'm ready whenever
are you still looking for people?
??events
There are no event(s) at this time.
quesstion if i am looking from thje tarcone directors key for a quest on customs can i only find that key on customs
No but iirc it's a higher chance on customs
and with other maps, keys to the corresponding map is higher on that map i think
ok thanks
apreciate it
whats a good way to get a ledx i have yet to see one all game 😦 need it for quest
shoreline has a good medbag spawn?
okay ill look it up
you'll get a lot of good stuff if you get a left alone resort :)
and sometimes the chads are too lazy to loot medbags
and will just look the keyrooms
okay thank you very much i will try my luck
Good luck, hope you find one
I still need to get the bronze watch on customs and just get some loot in general if anyone wants to join me. New to the game
join me
woods 2
Ground caches too
Woods at 2pm?
woods voice 2
The voice chans
did you find ledx
Labs, craft it or shoreline
shoreline is iffy
where is machinery key in flea market?
you cant craft it unless you already unlocked some parts of lightkeepers quest
some parts are needed from the questline
They must’ve changed that
can you not sell machinery key in flea market?
you cant auto-sort it
no bruh
i meant *can
but thats bad
i mean, if you dont have any cases or anything it's not
its very baqd
i have like some cases but i dont have weapon rack yet and i have too much shit
im not using auto sort i just need some strong alpha sigma males guidance on how to organize my stash!!
x)
Asking for quite a bit haha
Depending on how bad it is it's quite some work to organize someone's stash for em'
Ig you do learn it a little bit by getting it done from someone
buy an ammo case if you havent. really helps with stash management early on
what do the stars mean on sherpa raid request form
Mandatory answer ig?
does it really mean anything at all?
what are you looking for a sherpa for friend?
you can usually find help here
without having to wait for a sherpa
i just bought the game and im very confused
ill help you bud
i watched a few like random vids
i give people tarkov classes basically lol
i can hop in vc with you and give you the overview of everything, if youd like
sure id appreciate that
ofc ofc
calling you now
I'm a new player and don't have any friends that play this game. Anyone willing to play?
can someone help me organize my stash
I can
is this something I should buy?
not necessarily, but its great to have to expand storage
and also makes good organizers for certain things
is it rare to find in the shop? I dont want to regret skipping
im level 12 so storage has been an issue, but Id have to sell a lot of rare stuff like statues
Anyone interested in helping a new player I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing.
no
get a lucky scav junkbox
got one its full :/
sell shit u dont need
check quests page on the wiki for a big infographic of everythign u need to be found in raid
sell everything else
not sure what to sell, its tedious going through the future quests cataloging so Im just sucking it up till lvl 15
infographic?
what is the wiki?
Quests, both player-given and dynamically generated, are intended to be a large part of Escape from Tarkov.
Some require you to pick stuff up for certain traders, while others require you to kill other operators or mark vehicles and specific places.
Quests are the fastest way of gaining EXP. Completing one will often reward you with experience p...
ty I was looking at that thru the link
Holy Crap I need help>
thats just for quests
but the hideout shit is cheap on flea rn
hideout upgrades dont need to be found in raid
just buy of flea
if it was early wipe they would be extremely expensive, but its not so u can just buy off flea
