[wheat tree]

aw that sucks

[frigid finch]

if you want your kd just scroll down to pmc kills

[wheat tree]

yeah but i need to count it myself

[frigid finch]

although its prolly not your KD in actual pvp fights cause it counts all death

[wheat tree]

1.44 kd im so fuckign bad, not even at least 2

[frigid finch]

ive died so much to bullshit at rogues this wipe because they have changed the AI like, 3 times in 4 months

[wheat tree]

yeah that too, i guess, so i cant rly count pmc kd ratio

[barren magnet]

could someone help me with my woods quests?

[wheat tree]

yeah youtube can easily help with that

[frigid finch]

its so mentally draining to die like that...like it saps all desire to keep playing this game

[white pond]

i hit him 15 times didnt die

[wheat tree]

armor ate everything, use better bullets

[white pond]

if my game wasnt 15fps i would have killed him

[frigid finch]

dude get better ammo lol

or aim legs

[white pond]

what can i get at level 10

[frigid finch]

then aim legs

[white pond]

thats what i did after he didnt die

towards the ending i hit 2 on leg i think

[frigid finch]

yea if you had hit all 15 on legs he wouldve died

[white pond]

idk i wasnt playing for awhile it was 3 man my heart was pounding

[frigid finch]

generally speaking at this point in the wipe if you are using anything that cant reliably pen 4, aim legs

[white pond]

i had m856

[frigid finch]

yea that is leg ammo at this point lo

[wheat tree]

tryuing to tap the heads would have been maybe better but if you were in a bad spot then this is one of the moments where you just got outgeared, but aiming for the legs at the very beginning would have helped

[white pond]

i think his game froze or something he was walking to right and didnt turn to me

my game was 15fps anyways i couldnt do much

i would have died anyways

i thought it was a 2 man but someone else shot me from back

i didnt move when i heard them and i would have killed them if i had something better

1 would have died certainly

lil bro had no idea i was infront of him

and it was crazy i heard them from so far away

but i got a tetriz in my pouch so that raid was neutral

[frigid finch]

omfg so many god damn scavs...and killa almost jumped me...fucking hate interchange

[reef sequoia]

just learn the map

it's nice when you do

[frigid finch]

i know the map really well lol

still hate it

[reef sequoia]

well

get better at pvp

so many free kills

[frigid finch]

??????? wtf are you even talking about

are you fucking stupid?

[earnest spindle]

lmfao

[frigid finch]

like, you understand the concept that I can be good at a map, know the map, and STILL hate it right?

you can't be that stupid

[white pond]

get better

[frigid finch]

lol impossible

[velvet warren]

You did not just get heated from a dude jokin around with you lmao

[white pond]

he just needs to get better

[earnest spindle]

got heated real quick too xD

[frigid finch]

you did not just take a bunch of words typed on the screen as someone being heated

the ironyu lol

[velvet warren]

looks like you did tbf

[earnest spindle]

looks like stress to me

[frigid finch]

OMFG i cursed....i must be so fucking angry

[earnest spindle]

relax

[white pond]

you are

[earnest spindle]

breathe some air

[white pond]

just get better

[frigid finch]

lol you understand, cursing =/= angry right

[velvet warren]

just get better at therapy, gotta get that therapy boss

also

what the fuck does temperature do in tarkov

[earnest spindle]

keeps ya warm and cozy

[frigid finch]

i think it can effect if you are seen or how well you are seen by thermals

[earnest spindle]

wrap up warm

[frigid finch]

never tried it

[velvet warren]

but does it actively have a factor

[velvet warren]

oh yeah youre right

[white pond]

i forgot to put a scope on coz of u

[velvet warren]

forgor about thermal

[frigid finch]

good hope you die

[earnest spindle]

The thermal scope thing for sure apart from that it's pointless lol

[frigid finch]

never tried it, so dont take my word for it lol

[earnest spindle]

makes sense tho

[frigid finch]

lol a lot of shit SHOULD make sense in this game and doesnt

[earnest spindle]

word

[velvet warren]

but it would make sense, since this stimmy lowers body temp from 37 to 33 or 32

[frigid finch]

with CBJ this might be my new fave gun

[bold kernel]

Where is this feature at

[wheat tree]

its an obs plugin called vertical

but you can set it up not to be vertical

find it on youtube

[reef sequoia]

why is intel price dropping this fast?

something happen?

[velvet warren]

think because its end of wipe almost

[bold kernel]

Oh no

[reef sequoia]

is that a grenade?

[bold kernel]

yes

[reef sequoia]

F

[bold kernel]

lol

[nocturne trellis]

F

[bold kernel]

my baby came home

[reef sequoia]

I quit

fuck EU labs

naked fucks with 855 headtapping everyone

😦

at least this one used 855A1

[bold kernel]

sounds like you needa go Columbia labs

[reef sequoia]

I'm just gonna go to america

[bold kernel]

goodluck lmao

[reef sequoia]

actual pvp

I went 10 labs raids recently

well

in 2 days

it's bad

[ancient thorn]

are the crafts for these empty fuel tanks worth it

[velvet warren]

i just sell them tbf

but idk about the crafts if theyre worth it

[ancient thorn]

flea or trader ?

[velvet warren]

well dont think anyone will buy an empty gas canister tbf

unless theyre doing the craft

[open glade]

nobody buys them to do the craft tho

they just use them up fully then do the craft with the empty one

[dusty spruce]

so like, i watched a veritas video and he recommended learning factory for pvp aspects and just general eft'ness, so I'm doing factory with easy AI on high, tagged and cursed, and these guys insta head shot me?

[open glade]

sounds like you realise how hard this game actually is hahah

that's normal, don't worry. Get used to it - it's tarkov 😄

[dusty spruce]

🥲 i've got a long way to go if I can't even kill a single AI on easy

[earnest spindle]

don't keep re peaking the same place, the longer AI see you in that same peak the closer they get to one tapping you lol

[open glade]

Indeed. You've just had the realisation of how hard this game truly is

[earnest spindle]

you'll be fine, just deal with them. don't run around dancing about. Aim, Shoot, until you kill

[open glade]

Take right hand peeks as much as you can too. AI in this game aren't dumb. They're not "easy". AI are just as deadly, maybe even more deadly, than players.

[earnest spindle]

word

been killed by AI so much in this game

[shrewd fog]

@open glade They sell immediately on flea for like 50-60K

[open glade]

They do?

tf.

[earnest spindle]

they ai are NO JOKE.

Rogues go the craziest XD

[shrewd fog]

@open glade Not the metal ones the expeditionary

[open glade]

Indeed. The amount of times a random woods scav has seen me and screamed one line, then inserted a TT round into my face is incredible

They really are no joke.

[open glade]

I use metal tanks only, that's probably why

[shrewd fog]

@open glade Those still go for like 30K

[open glade]

Yeah but I think you make more profit from just doing the craft.

[earnest spindle]

TT scavs r the final bosses imo

they wild

[shrewd fog]

Depends if you have the other items, yeah?

[open glade]

Buckshot scavs too.

[dusty spruce]

i will say, i got lucky on woods and found a ledx on a scav run

[earnest spindle]

wordddddd lol

[dusty spruce]

but that doesn't do me any good at level 5 🙂

[open glade]

Definitely. While I'm doing my craft currently, I'll be looking all around for nuts and bolts to lower the cost of my next craft and make more profit.

[open glade]

beginners luck has literally every new player finding a ledx I don't get it

the amount of people I've sherpa'd and they find a ledx

[dusty spruce]

i probably won't even get to level 15 to sell it

[open glade]

You will

I believe

[dusty spruce]

i got jaeger's letter once so far, out of like 9 woods runs

[open glade]

You could sell it to therapist right now, but for around 200k less profit

[dusty spruce]

and i died 🥲

i'll probably keep it on hand for a while, just in case i go broke later

[slow lotus]

Any one available to zero a zabralo for me? I have one already I just need some1 to shoot me a lil bit

[open glade]

Keep playing man. Most of the learning in this game is done through dying. If you play 100 raids, no matter what happened in them, even if you went 99 deaths - 1 extract, you will still come out of those 100 with more knowledge and experience than you had before

[dusty spruce]

how do I check my compass? LOL

[open glade]

H?

If not, just drag it down from your inventory to one of the available slots in your hotbar and it will bind it to that number

[dusty spruce]

hmmmm... i have got work to do

[velvet warren]

yep

[velvet warren]

drag it towards one of your binds (0-9) and then press that number

[open glade]

I'm pretty sure there is a compass button too

I believe it's H

[reef sequoia]

I love this

[velvet warren]

H turns on the tactical device on your helmet

[bold kernel]

man shits annoying

[open glade]

what about G?

[velvet warren]

nade

[dusty spruce]

yeah im pretty sure i don't have one, so i think that was a dumb questions

[open glade]

Man I've changed alot of settings

[velvet warren]

you need to have one in your special slot

[open glade]

Hahahaha yeah I just realised, you get that from a quest Jaeger gives you

Search mission

[open glade]

He doesn't even have Jaeger yet

[dusty spruce]

is the hhs-1 tran a decent sight?

[velvet warren]

sadge

[open glade]

Fuj lithuanian guy

[open glade]

It didn't go into my head haha

how can he have a compass without Jaeger

[dusty spruce]

im on woods and in a lumbar yard, where am i?

im trying to get to un roadblock or old station

[open glade]

Sawmill

[reef sequoia]

In the lumberyard

[open glade]

head East

from the Sawmill

[dusty spruce]

where on the map am i, tho, top left, south?

[open glade]

middle bottom

by the coast

[dusty spruce]

okay

[open glade]

you should head right if you want to extract

[violet badger]

put it on the other side

[open glade]

it wont make much of a difference either way

[bold kernel]

same thin

yea some guns

[violet badger]

well it did for me

[bold kernel]

some guns

[open glade]

the shadow will just move a bit ]

[reef sequoia]

rate my labs loot

[violet badger]

[bold kernel]

Dog shit

[reef sequoia]

😭 ok

[bold kernel]

Human horse dogg shit

[open glade]

not amazing

I would drop literally everything other than the lion

[bold kernel]

lmaoo

[open glade]

Either way it will have a shadow

[bold kernel]

his level 56 ass

[open glade]

left or right

[reef sequoia]

?

[bold kernel]

when do you repair your guns? like what durability

[clever knoll]

jaeger is happy for you

[bold kernel]

YK damn well taht loot wasnt good

[violet badger]

[bold kernel]

i have never used the gun but ayye W gun

[violet badger]

this is what i usually run

[bold kernel]

I love night raids i dont use NVG tho

never need em

[weak mirage]

Super meta 😂

[reef sequoia]

[violet badger]

heck yea that boy a laser

[violet badger]

LO

[bold kernel]

Show da stats

[weak mirage]

Whats The recoil on that?

Mid 30?

[bold kernel]

33 maybe with 46 ergo

[weak mirage]

The Stock is goof as hell

[weak mirage]

Yeah mid 30

[bold kernel]

36 recoil no ergo

[violet badger]

who df needs ergo in this game tho

[frigid finch]

why not just run a better m4 at that point?

[violet badger]

hipfire for the win

[reef sequoia]

mid raid can't see

what gun is that

[weak mirage]

Stock handguard gasblock and lower is trash

[bold kernel]

M4

[violet badger]

cuz i only run Aks

im just trying to lsoe that gun already

[bold kernel]

ew

[violet badger]

but i keep getting out

[frigid finch]

ahh

[weak mirage]

I do love me some ergo, i Didnt use to Care But now i do

40 ergo ish

Or No go

[reef sequoia]

best loot

[violet badger]

RD or ak-12 are my top 1 and 2

ak-12 is soo nice

[bold kernel]

I NEED IT

[weak mirage]

Its nuts for a 545

[frigid finch]

m4 is cheap once you get the 4gp coin barter that has the mur receiver and lvoa-c handguard

[bold kernel]

I need the propane tanks

both of them

[violet badger]

who df cares about cheap

im rich anyway i just buy it

from flee

[weak mirage]

Your build does

Its a budget m4

[frigid finch]

you do if you are running aks lol

[violet badger]

well whoever build this m4 its not bad

cuz i looted it

since then i just play it

[weak mirage]

I see

[reef sequoia]

wtf are these raiders man

can't even have good shit

[violet badger]

im losing my mind

i got 19 weapon cases

but i want to upgrade

to thicc

but its always

sold out

[tidal lagoon]

why tf u have 19 weapon cases is the real question

[weak mirage]

Holy

[violet badger]

why not

[weak mirage]

That is a lot

[tidal lagoon]

dust collectors

[clever knoll]

hoarding problem

[reef sequoia]

worth these days?

[weak mirage]

Thats a lot of case

[violet badger]

they are all full with Aks and m4s

tbh

[shrewd fog]

@violet badger You got 40MIl and your complaining about not being able to get a thicc lol

[weak mirage]

50k

Ish

[high swan]

20-40k

[reef sequoia]

ffs

[violet badger]

hell yea i am

[weak mirage]

No armbands has value

[shrewd fog]

@violet badger TBH skill issue

[violet badger]

im not fast enough

i swear its chinese bots

it has to be

[reef sequoia]

not once did I see it sold out

[frigid finch]

global limits are garbage

[violet badger]

yea i dont like it

[slow lotus]

Quick Question, should I stock up on item cases and weapon cases if I have the money?

[high swan]

Noone likes it

[violet badger]

here is a tip from me

[weak mirage]

Depends if you horde

[high swan]

Are you going to be a hoarder and waste gear until the game wipes?

[reef sequoia]

😄

this is a fucking joke

[clever knoll]

8 more to go

[violet badger]

u basically for your generator u only use the Blue fuel tanks and then u trade 5 blue fuel tanks and 5 pistol cases for 1 weapons case

[clever knoll]

only like 10 raids to go then

[weak mirage]

If you win The raid and stay you get 10 before its over

You havent pushed any buttons

Then

[violet badger]

i could get way more weapon cases

[reef sequoia]

all of them

are on

[violet badger]

but im almost out of spcae

space

[weak mirage]

Idk What your luck is Then

[reef sequoia]

someone loves the damn parrots

jfc

[slow lotus]

I mean my stash is pretty full, I have a lot of ANA rigs that Im using as gear and I have gucci'd out Ak's and M4's that I am going through

[violet badger]

do i get 1 more weapons case or nah

all of em are full

[slow lotus]

I have 45 mill

[shrewd fog]

@violet badger Its time to liquidate

[violet badger]

i wish

[high swan]

Wipe is in 6-7 weeks, i wouldn't bother tbh

[violet badger]

im legit LFG beginners just to give them gear bc i dont lose any of my gear and im full

and now im full again

[weak mirage]

Ive never Seen anyone hoarde that many guns

[violet badger]

i just give full meta kits to beginners for fun

[weak mirage]

What The hell is inside those cases

[violet badger]

what can i do when i dont DIE

[weak mirage]

Die more i Think

[shrewd fog]

@violet badger Youre the guy that takes 20 mins between raids to make space arent you

[tidal lagoon]

sell

[violet badger]

nahhh

thats boring

[weak mirage]

Everything that i dont use goes straight to mechanic

[violet badger]

oh

F him

[dusty spruce]

is a sledgehammer worthwhile

or should i just leave it

[high swan]

I just fill a couch with guns and run and die on factory

If im going to do that

[shrewd fog]

@dusty spruce you need one for the hideout

[tidal lagoon]

i keep some stuff but not a lot, mostly guns i cant buy from flea like scarh

[weak mirage]

Straight to mechanic is The move

[high swan]

leave, you can buy on market for like 80k

[violet badger]

so im actually tilted i kept killing kaban but he either dropped an RPK

or the other PKP

that i dont need

is the PKP more rare

or am i trippin

[weak mirage]

Its feels like 33% for each

Just bad luck

[high swan]

can you stop bragging in begginers assistance

[shrewd fog]

@high swan lmao

[violet badger]

are u ok LOL how is that bragging im asking a QUESTION to the pros in here

reno is 53

[shrewd fog]

@violet badger PKP is needed for Gunsmith 25

PKM is not needed i dont think

[violet badger]

yea i know but i keep getting the PKM

or RPK

[reef sequoia]

don't worry I have yet to finish mine too

[violet badger]

i didnt even know RPK as a thing

[reef sequoia]

I just gave up 😄

[violet badger]

not rpk i mean PKM

[reef sequoia]

just go scav and reset every time kaban doesn't drop it

[weak mirage]

He usually has igolnik in The rpk

[tidal lagoon]

i got rpk 3/3 times

pkp*

[weak mirage]

But Hes like super troll when He runs it

[violet badger]

thats bullshit

[weak mirage]

Yeah i Got 2 pkp and 2 pkm

From him

And one rpk

[lusty trail]

Hey there guys. I ain't no beginner, but I have a beginner question.
I added someone as a friend ingame, after our fight. They sent me a message without accepting my friend request, and I can't respond to their message. Can I message them somehow? Or what is happening?

[violet badger]

oh wtf

u aint friends?

[shrewd fog]

@lusty trail They removed you

[violet badger]

yea

thats what i would of guessed

[reef sequoia]

they added you sent you msg and deleted you

[languid owl]

i killed kaban and all his gaurds and then died to a hacking player scav im ending my life

[tidal lagoon]

@weak mirage i quit tarkov for this

[weak mirage]

Respectable i cant Lie

[clever knoll]

worth

[shrewd fog]

@tidal lagoon BTD is life

[tidal lagoon]

real, ill be crawling back to tarkov next wipe tho

their grip around my soul is too strong

[violet badger]

well first

[high swan]

bro i play every other wipe

[violet badger]

Arena is dropping before its getting wiped

[high swan]

it keeps my soul intact and enjoyment in the game

[violet badger]

so we gon be playing some of that

[weak mirage]

I gamed a whole day of factory when The event was there and went back to mia

[tidal lagoon]

fuck

[bold kernel]

first i guessed poptropica but idk wtf this is

[lusty trail]

I just wanted to make sure they know I was just lucky killing them, and wanted to group up, but I guess they are more pissed than that 😄

[tidal lagoon]

bloons tower defense 6 bro

[weak mirage]

When does The event hit labs?

[olive cape]

whats the best sniper scope that isnt too pricey?

[tidal lagoon]

ps-320 prolly

[bold kernel]

vudu

[clever knoll]

valday or elcann

[bold kernel]

Spectre for reticle

[shrewd fog]

@olive cape Schmidt and Bender is like 40K. Spectre is another good one

[reef sequoia]

I'm practicing to get my stash in order

[weak mirage]

Valday or Smith and bender 1-8 if cheap

[tidal lagoon]

vudu is pretty cheap ye 80k or smt

[tidal lagoon]

based

[bold kernel]

its 80k for barer

barter on flea like 145

cant tell him cus im tryna kill kaban

[clever knoll]

i wish i could even play streets

[bold kernel]

you can

[high swan]

why shit helmet when running a korund and decent m4?

[bold kernel]

i suggest you rob Best buy or something

[clever knoll]

based

[bold kernel]

MCX and why not helmets dont do shit when being shot by M995 or m80 or m62

[high swan]

richocet on fast mt is better no?

[bold kernel]

eh im not spending $ on helmets

[high swan]

i mean even the tc has better richocet chance?

but fair i dont even bother with helmets past level 15

[dusty spruce]

i turned in the quest to unlock jaeger, but he's still locked, do i just need to relogin?

[high swan]

oui

[bold kernel]

i use good helmets

from people i kill

otherwise ill be ight

[dusty spruce]

thank you!

[reef sequoia]

I lost my teteris game 😭

[clever knoll]

noooo

how will you recover from this?

[white pond]

teteris

[dusty spruce]

i didn't press complete on the quest LOL

[clever knoll]

happens to all of us

better than not even accepting the task and then trying to do it

khm khm me and gunsmith 10

[dusty spruce]

yeah, that was me trying to find jeagers letter for like, 3 runs wondering why i didn't find the letter

[bold kernel]

damn

[solemn raptor]

ratnik? really?

[bold kernel]

yes.

helmets are useless

[solemn raptor]

well.. you're using a class 3 bud

[bold kernel]

bro

theyre useless lol

m995 going through all them right?

[frigid finch]

all that matters is ricochet

[bold kernel]

ulach aint gonna save you from M995

[frigid finch]

so cheapest one is about 99% as effective

[bold kernel]

im not tripping on a helmet i norm have a usec cap on

or a shattered mask

[solemn raptor]

at 125m m995 can't kill you through class 4.

[shrewd fog]

@bold kernel Go to your overall page and see how many concusssions you have so far

[bold kernel]

m80 can

I mainly get concussions from scavs

[solemn raptor]

can what?

[solemn raptor]

there's a stat for that??

[bold kernel]

HS me from afar

100 concus

[shrewd fog]

@bold kernel but a helmet saves you no?

[solemn raptor]

not really, got a 53% chance to pen class 4 at 200m

[bold kernel]

Scavs only fr

Ratnik saved me from m855a1 from 15m so at the end of the day idm

im not paying 170k for a ulach

nvm theyre 111k rn

yesterday they were 178k

[frigid finch]

its not about whether a helmet saves you, its about how much more an expensive helmet saves you then a ratnik, which isnt much

[solemn raptor]

@bold kernel although so... to be fair here, here's when to use a helmet:

1. You're a clueless guy who often get shot in the back of your head.
2. You've got more money than you can spend.

If you're hitting people head on, a helmet isn't going to save you that much.

I'm personally only wearing the camo boonie hat.

[solemn raptor]

yeah, the TC helmets are crazy bang for the buck.

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch not true at all and you cant back that up

[solemn raptor]

not tc800* I'm talking about 2001 and 2002

[bold kernel]

lol im never getting randomly sniped and when i die its norm head eyes cus im in a 15m gunfight

[solemn raptor]

yeah, so then a helmet probably isn't going to save you that often.

[frigid finch]

ok, so its really easy to calculate, show me the %ricochet difference between cheap and expensive helmets

then factor in how many raids you die getting sniped

and then you can calculate the cost of the additional deaths vs the expense of the helmet

[solemn raptor]

riochet chance or pen chance?

[solemn raptor]

you also have to take into account insurance

a ratnik nobody is going to pick up, so you're actually only paying for the insurance, not the helmet.

[frigid finch]

i dont die to getting sniped offscreen that much

so paying an insane amount of money for a helmet that wont protect me getting headeyes is pointless

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch Richochet chance on 6b47 and Ulach are the same whats your point again ?

[frigid finch]

that is my exact point?\

lol

[solemn raptor]

you have to compare pen chance though.. not richochet chance...

[shrewd fog]

but one is level 3 and one is 4

[frigid finch]

and at this point in the wipe, how many times are you dying to someone using something that cant pen your helmet?>??

like wtf

[shrewd fog]

I have almost 200 concussions so very often lol

[solemn raptor]

completely dependent on the range at which you're enaging at.

[frigid finch]

as i said, im almost never getting sniped, so who cares

all i care about is the ricochet chance

[shrewd fog]

if you dont have the money for helmets, say that, but dont say helmets are the same

[solemn raptor]

^

[frigid finch]

lol yep, thats why i most level 40+ people i kill arent wearing expensive helmets but running meta guns

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch that is your annecdotal experience.

[solemn raptor]

20k isn't going to make a big difference to a gun, 20k is going to make a big difference when wearing a helmet that might save you from bs scav aimbot

[frigid finch]

dude what? a ratnik saves you from 99.9% of scavs regardless

[tidal lagoon]

i always be wearing my helmets

[frigid finch]

how many scavs are using ammo that can pen level 3

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch i dont need saved from scavs lol

[olive cape]

how many scavs are using ammo that can 1 shot black out your legs, arms and future

[solemn raptor]

future, nice one

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch Mosin scavs, ak scavs with T46m1

[frigid finch]

wasnt talking to you lol

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch i know youre not. but you are wrong about helmets and i need you to know that

[frigid finch]

no im not lol

[dusty spruce]

should i just sell all my weapon mods to npcs until i get to level 15?

[frigid finch]

obviously, a more expensive helmet is better, thats not a question, for the extra money vs the times it saves you, its just not worth it

[dusty spruce]

i have a few that are worth like 25k to the mechanic

[solemn raptor]

they're probably worth 2-5 times more on flea

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch so youre poor

[dusty spruce]

i have a hybrid hhs-1 tan sight?

its worth 35k to mechanic

[solemn raptor]

sell it to mech hah

[frigid finch]

You are talking in beginners assistance moron....you cant be this fucking stupiod

[solemn raptor]

it's 41 on flea

[dusty spruce]

it's probably not worth keeping yet, is it?

i don't really have any weapons for it, I don't think

[solemn raptor]

it's garbage.

[dusty spruce]

what about a 12a shotgun silencer? just sell it to mechanic?

[solemn raptor]

if a mod looks fancy, it's probaly expensive, if it looks cheap, it's going to be cheap.

use your intuition.

[tidal lagoon]

or wiki combined with tarkov market

[dusty spruce]

oh boy, economics...

I ain't good at all this

[solemn raptor]

yup ^

[tidal lagoon]

dont worry, after around 2000 hours ull know the price of mostly all items

[dusty spruce]

🥲

ill come back in 2000 hours

[tidal lagoon]

great idea lol

[dusty spruce]

what sights are worthwhile keeping, in your guys opinion?

[tidal lagoon]

where do we start

if its 1-6x its worth probably to keep for use

1-8x too

basically most eotech holographics are good

[dusty spruce]

copy, i have a eotech holo, so keep that around?

[tidal lagoon]

yea they are nice to use

[dusty spruce]

i probably shouldn't worry about mods and all that just yet, either

since I'm so new

[tidal lagoon]

mostly no because u wont really be able to mod for recoil to a point that matters yet, but still keeping expensive mods is good

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch You are spreading incorrect info to people trying to learn.

[tidal lagoon]

and sights are still good even with high recoil guns

[frigid finch]

no, i am saying beginners, who money is a real factor, should not spend money on expensive helmets, which is objectively the correct info

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch You can walk throu a factory scav and have enough to buy a lvl 4 helmet lmao

[frigid finch]

you completely forget what its like to be a beginner dude

doing a scav run to get a helmet is just stupid

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch i really dont, why do you think im here helping yall lol

[frigid finch]

you arent helping

[shrewd fog]

@frigid finch BC you know everything

[frigid finch]

telling beginners who generally struggle to survive more then one raid in a row to spend 100k on a helmet is terrible advice

beginners arent dying to that shit, they are dying to the most basic of stuff that better gear wont save them from

hell, even if the helmet DOES save them from one bullet, they will most likely die because i doubt they have the awareness of their surroundings to 1. know where they are being shot from, and 2. know the quickest way out of line of sight

all these skills take hundreds of hours to learn in this game

[lunar ibex]

ratnik or penis helmet is plenty imo

high ricochet is all u need

[tacit blade]

^^^

ratnik and gssh headset

[tidal lagoon]

ear death headset

[sterile minnow]

[dusty spruce]

are broken lcd screens good to keep?

[tidal lagoon]

they aight

[dusty spruce]

what do i need them for?

[tidal lagoon]

check wiki

[dusty spruce]

ahhh weapons case with mechanic

i see

any suggestions on which weapon to use? I would prefer to add a sight if I could

[reef sequoia]

102 you can add bastion and a sight at lvl 1 traders

ak 12 same

[olive cape]

I've been only using one gun lately and I really wanna switch over and try out other different guns

[zinc dune]

whats the best pistol for stirrup

[reef sequoia]

grach

[olive cape]

recently i've been trying to get into aks, any recommendations for which I need to use, and how to mod it? Maybe even which ammo to use?

[reef sequoia]

or 57

[reef sequoia]

RD or AKM with PP ammo

BP for some reason sometimes doesn't reg properly

[dusty spruce]

bastion?

[reef sequoia]

dust cover

skier

[olive cape]

what's the best armor i can get that is reliable but not too expensive? I have ragman 2

[dusty spruce]

ah okay

[slow lotus]

Wheres a good place to scav for fuel conditioner?

[reef sequoia]

called flea

and called flora

or some other ceramic trash

[olive cape]

the 70k one?

[reef sequoia]

look up flora in flea

sometimes go for 50k

but armor wise just look up anything 4lvl+

and find cheapest options

armor this late is mostly for scavs anyway

[dusty spruce]

i cant even find magazines for 556x45

am i able to buy them now, or should i wait??

[crimson hemlock]

Is there a easy way to get jaegger letter? I can't get to extraction with it without getting sniped

[dusty spruce]

i did mine at night

it was a fairly easy run

[crimson hemlock]

is there a config to see in the dark? because i can't see anything even at daytime when indoors

[dusty spruce]

whats your brightness set to?

[crimson hemlock]

i messed with postfx but no success

[crimson hemlock]

39

but even at 100 i could not see any better

[dusty spruce]

im not sure, i have both brightness/saturation turned to 100

[crimson hemlock]

i'm gonna try again, thanks

sorry for the bad english, not my native language

[zinc dune]

can I do a run through on postman pat

[reef sequoia]

yes

[crimson hemlock]

Just got headshotted by a scav while lost

[blazing trellis]

Whats the best way to learn the maps?

[jolly silo]

honestly, just open a map on your phone or second monitor. all early quests help you move around the map quite a bit. they are all over the place. learn landmarks that are easy to see all over the map. like the giant pillars on customs.

[blazing trellis]

ok, thank you

[jolly silo]

There is an awesome resource called "raid guide" on apple and google play. tells you real time flea prices. so if you think a weapon part looks expensive then you can look it up there. save those for the extra roubles. sell the rest for now. your early game resources are so limited so a little extra cash goes a long way

[sick surge]

tryna complete gas analyzer quest if anyone can help

[jolly silo]

filing cabinets! lots on customs. scav in and try to find dorms. keep running those cabneits and you will have it very soon. I find them all the time there

[sick surge]

thank you

[jolly silo]

open every room you can that doesnt require a key and you will surely find those cabinets!

[sick surge]

want to run customs with me?

LMAO

[wheat tree]

tarkov down? post error

[bold kernel]

it's being looked into

[hoary elbow]

need some help for some customs quests, if anyones down. Pharmacist, and Golden Swag. I have the keys

[slow lotus]

Did the NA servers just RIP for anyone else?

[nocturne trellis]

anyone wants free tagilla head and rig ?

with the ak XD

[dusty spruce]

sorry for the late ping. I appreciate it

[quartz light]

yeah servers are down

EU too

[sick surge]

me/

[pearl furnace]

Servers down, eh? They post on Twitter about it or anything?

Nvm, saw the update in eft-news

[runic compass]

Where do y’all keep your keys? I just stuff all mine in a rig

[atomic trail]

streets is rough for sbih, any tips

[pearl furnace]

I kept mine in Bank Robber rigs until I got a docs case. I would love a key-tool, but that is one steep barter trade.

[austere hound]

Docs cases. Same for money

[white pond]

who tf is this

[runic compass]

Wow I never thought about putting money in them. I just keep buying wallets

[white pond]

ai scav said hello to me and shot me when i went up to him

he waved at me

[runic compass]

That’s a player

[white pond]

no

it wast

[runic compass]

Idk then. Did you damage another scav?

[white pond]

no

[mental viper]

the insurance go wild they only ever take my shotgun suppressor

[austere hound]

It's twice as efficient. 2m/slot with wallets vs 4m/slot with docs cases

[sage nacelle]

Was it a scav boss or gaurd?

[white pond]

idk

it was next to kaban's place

but not in

[sage nacelle]

First and last name or just 1 name?

[white pond]

in a store next to mines

[white pond]

1 name

[sage nacelle]

Likely a gaurd

[white pond]

it waved at me

[sage nacelle]

Bosses and guards tend to agro on scavs if they get to close iirc (they can emote too)

Unless your rep is high

I might be wrong on that tho someone might fact check me lol

[runic compass]

A guard killed me one time too outside of the tarbank so that’s probably it

[tacit cosmos]

Does somebody have experience with how much MSI Afterburner will give your extra frames when overclocking? Currently have the RX 6700 XT

[dusty spruce]

do AI Scavs see through bushes?

[warm iron]

hey are we able to get nigh vision gear once when we get level 15 ?

[primal flame]

if the genarator is off does the powewr go

[velvet warren]

it would be a player if you can report them

[sage nacelle]

If your gen is off your other things are not powered but they can still craft at a much slower rate

[primal flame]

yea but does ther oil run out

[bold kernel]

no lol

[primal flame]

ok

[bold kernel]

if ur generator is off it won't use fuel or anything trust

[primal flame]

it did in ghost of tabor

[primal flame]

does it really?

[sage nacelle]

It will not use fuel as long as the generator is powered off (generator button on the left side of your screen is red) and also exiting the game will give you a warning only if your generator is on

[unborn spindle]

doesnt let me bvbuy anything

[opaque osprey]

click the little red box where the money is

[velvet warren]

you see that little X and the box? click on it, itll autofill

top left

[dusty harness]

Nothing to special there, although i love the sight picture on the Obzor personally

and the claw muzzle brake is worth almost 30k i think

[ivory elm]

where do i install

[lunar ibex]

ctr fde is good stock

rougly 50k on flea last checked

[dusty harness]

login to the website

you playing solo?

first wipe?

ah not to bad then, you have some know-how lol

Yeah some of them can really set ya back

@bold kernel if ya ever need a duo i gotchu, i'm no good but it's an extra body 🤣

[viral prawn]

Resetting and starting again

[dusty harness]

why's that?

[austere hound]

No life & they enjoy tasking. There's no other reason to. You could always artificially restrict your gear or delete your entire stash if you wanted to

[viral prawn]

It's fun to try to fight from being under-geared

nobody seems to need help

[viral prawn]

Stock market doesn't run during the weekend

[austere hound]

So use lower gear and don't reset. Nothing in the game stops you from throwing on a paca and a pompon

Also, gross. Day trader. Parasitic job

[viral prawn]

First raid

[viral prawn]

Yeah, but working in cancercare was way worse

You want to talk about a parastic industry

[lunar ibex]

how

isnt tagillas stuff auto exaimed alr?

[viral prawn]

apparently not lol

I just found a pile of dead PMC's at Gate 3

looks like shotgun goons vs shotgun goons

[lunar ibex]

lul last guy prolly bled out

[viral prawn]

that's what i'm assuming happened to altyn boy

i think imma sell everything and buy a scav junkbox lol

[bold kernel]

not worth

this again????

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[bold kernel]

bruh.

whats up wit it?

[raven quarry]

drink it no balls

[edgy cradle]

real

[honest hatch]

whats happening rn?

[viral prawn]

Scav junkbox after 1 raid, Oh Yeah, killed 7 scavs on first raid, but 8th scav one tapped me since paca is pure garbo

Well, i just got hit hard

[dusty harness]

why you posting this nonsense in beginner assistance tho?

[viral prawn]

I mean i also help players in this channel too, but when nobody is really talking i also talk about what i'm doing

[tidal lagoon]

beginners channel are basically just chill #eft-chat, theyre not really limited to purely helping nor new players

[viral prawn]

plus i don't think beginners assistance would accomplish it's goal if it was only restricted to new players

most new players might not have the depth of knowledge out to help out another new player

[tidal lagoon]

it wouldnt accomplish anything would just be LFG closed to new people

[bold kernel]

I remember the small pouch dats

days

[river rampart]

you get this trying to install?

[honest hatch]

nah just botting up the game

[analog stirrup]

anyone in asia trying to cheese the psycho sniper quest?

[gentle drift]

Looking for for help in getting started. I've played in practice mode quite a few times but in a real raid i always end up killing other scavs because i cant tell them apart.

[bold kernel]

where are you from

[gentle drift]

us. Kansas

[neat osprey]

can someone please help me get yager message

[bold kernel]

I'm willing to help but I need to know where one of you is

I'm in the LFG Beginners vc

[unkempt yoke]

what are the lighthouse keys i should run

[languid owl]

teehee

i killed desmond

[serene hatch]

where am i 😭

[bold kernel]

at scav village on woods

[dull swallow]

on woods

[deft crow]

Infront of your monitor at home

[keen drum]

how the heck do you get better ammo? everyone running class 5+ armor and im getting hits but not kills. buying the best i can. just got to lvl 30 and starting to craft but kinda broke now

[dull swallow]

kill bosses and players

and aim for eyes

[keen drum]

im trying!

[small idol]

use m855a1

[keen drum]

like i said, people jsut arnt dying to what im shooting

[small idol]

if youre level 30 you should begin having access to some decent bullets

[keen drum]

i can only get m856a1 right now.

[small idol]

also lps and svt/avt never fails

[keen drum]

is there a good place to scav for good ammo?

[small idol]

pk 3 no?

[shell shadow]

Still need this answered?

[small idol]

you should be able to get 55a1 if im not tripping

[keen drum]

ohhh maybe PK3! ill have to look

[small idol]

its pk3 behind an easy quest this wipe

[keen drum]

might need a quest. i havent done a lot of quests

ok ill look

[small idol]

its the cult one where u find dead scav in the house

you gotta be runnin 55a1 at this point in the wipe

6a1 dont cut it

[keen drum]

loaded into a raid, will check again. just struggling with aammo

[small idol]

also 7.62 pp is good but im not sure when you get that

[small idol]

55a1 and svt/avt/svd with lps is your move

[keen drum]

svt has been my savior. easy barter and i keep finding a lot of snb

[small idol]

yea snbs will do the job

svt is so broken rn u might as well abuse it until u get other decent ammo

55a1 is super good too if you want to run 556

7.62x39 ps can work, but youd have to hit more bullets or headshot, at this point in wipe and given your level id say u have better alternative

[dull swallow]

buy svt and kill killa for bs/bt or ppbs

[small idol]

@keen drum i actually looked at what you have access to and the ammos you can get from traders that are good are 7.62PP from prapor CBJ from skier for mcx, 55a1 from peacekeeper and lps/ps for svt from prapor

you have access to almost all endgame ammos so youre straight chilling

[keen drum]

ok, i guess i just got to lvl 30 a couple hours ago and just havnet figured it out....and broke haha, all the upgrades to hideout

[small idol]

u can also run spp for val if u like that

[keen drum]

really apprcieate it

[small idol]

basically run any caliber thats not 7.62x51 and youre good

[quasi wasp]

Is this good organizing? I'm new

[small idol]

entirely your personal preference

one trick you can do though is take the pistol grip off that stm

and itll save you three slots

[clear hollow]

which thicc case barter is the cheaper one? Ledx+ defi or moonshine?

[small idol]

ledx

[clear hollow]

thanks, im no good at math

[quasi wasp]

Got it, should I sell all the random weapon parts and all that stuff?

[small idol]

i just know cuz i had to do the math earlier this wipe haha

[small idol]

weapon parts tend to be not worth keeping unless its a scope, a good stock, or a suppressor

[quasi wasp]

Got it, thank you

[small idol]

also try to save up for a scav junkbox from therapist as soon as you can

itll save you alot of space cuz u can put all your random barter items in it

[keen drum]

whats wrong with 7.62x51?

[small idol]

u dont have good ammo for it until pk4

[keen drum]

oh i see

ty again, looking at all those ammos and what they need to unlock

[unkempt yoke]

yea

[small idol]

usec 1 usec 2 for chalet water treatment storage (if you go rogue house)

diff keys if you have lightkeeper island

[unkempt yoke]

are these the safe keys?

[small idol]

for the lower chalet yes

lighthouse doesnt have many important keys unless you have the lightkeeper island

[runic compass]

Police truck cabin key

[small idol]

idk what that one is, another key you may consider is merin

i forgot about that one

can have rare/tech loot

[runic compass]

The police truck is right outside building 1 of the water treatment plant. It has a chance to spawn intel

[shell shadow]

Hillside house, merin, warehouse, usec first and second safe key. Those are my money keys

[quasi wasp]

I am terrible at guessing fake scavs I really don't shot at everything that moves xd

[shell shadow]

Didn't even know there was a penalty quest 💀

[solar crow]

could someone help me with signal part 1 on shorline im in US

[white pond]

Getting the key is part 1

Getting to dorms is another

Especially at this time

U better bring nades and shotguns

[dull pasture]

at this time in wipe its probably better to go night sit in a bush while on the toilet or something

rly geared ppl roaming dorms by now

probably just worth if you really want to finish the qeust to let them do their pvping looting and sneaking in aferwards before the player scavs arrive

[clear hollow]

Do you have to be inside the places for capturing outpost kills or is it enough if the enemy is in there?

[weak mirage]

I Think both of you have to be inside The border of The quest

[frozen heart]

Anybody new players out there need some help?

Any*

[clear hollow]

ah rip, ok thank you, was wondering why my kills would not count since I sniped 3 people in the woods camp

[weak mirage]

That sucks man

[fringe jewel]

what should i use

ulach or zsh

[fathom coyote]

Hello! I am new and I want to know if my PC is able to run Tarkov. Can someone help me with this?

[white pond]

whats your cpu gpu and ram

[fathom coyote]

I know that my ram is 16gb

how do I check my gpu and cpu?

[white pond]

go to task manager

click on performance

cpu and gpu there

[fathom coyote]

my gpu is 11.7gb of storage

[white pond]

what

[fathom coyote]

is that good or bad

[fathom coyote]

lol

[white pond]

go here

[fathom coyote]

ye

what do i need to check there

[white pond]

cpu and gpu? duhh

[fathom coyote]

oh ok

NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1650 Super

[white pond]

cpu

[fathom coyote]

AMD Ryzen 5 4600G with Radeon Graphics

do you think I can run it?

[white pond]

yes

[fathom coyote]

aight thx

[white pond]

u cant play streets map tho

u can but low fps

[fathom coyote]

alr

ty!

[weak mirage]

Zsh is one of The most useless helmets in The game

[fringe jewel]

why not? it has alot of amor points

and a face shield

[weak mirage]

T3 faceshield

No headset

[fringe jewel]

t4*

[fringe jewel]

true

[weak mirage]

T3

[fringe jewel]

yea you right

[weak mirage]

If you wanna run a helmet with faceshield that you Can get from traders it has to be lszh or whatever its called

The Black t4

[fringe jewel]

ic ic

[weak mirage]

That otherone terrible imo

[fringe jewel]

ulach is terrible?

[weak mirage]

No its a decent helmet

Got ears and top of head and it takes a headset

It wont save you much But now and then

[fringe jewel]

true

[shell shadow]

This point in wipe most bullets will go straight through tho

No helmet gang is where it's at

[solemn raptor]

ulac is one of the best helmets, just it's pretty expensive.

[weak mirage]

I agree But if you do like a helmet

Ulach is probably the Way to go

[shell shadow]

Crye helmet with chops and faceshield better 😤

[solemn raptor]

It depends a lot on your playstyle. I get a lot more use out of wearing the chimera boonie. The doorkicker hat is also very useful.

[solemn raptor]

good luck getting that....

[weak mirage]

Wont catch me paying 200k for a helmet that takes 1 bullet in 15 raids

[shell shadow]

Wym?

[weak mirage]

You Can buy it from traders

[solemn raptor]

faceshield, locked behind pk 4 and samples...

[weak mirage]

Its mid wipe mate

[shell shadow]

1 labs run and it's done?

[shell shadow]

Late wipe

1 month left

Presumably

[weak mirage]

Youre right

[solemn raptor]

A couple wipes ago I spent so many millions running labs trying to find the stims, at this point I just do the quest passivly. Regradless, faceshields aren't an interest for me anymore.

[weak mirage]

I dont use Them either But samples is 2 openings of blackroom

Or even just loot at Blue and above Blue

[shell shadow]

TRUUEUEUE

And sanitar's office

[weak mirage]

Also that

[shell shadow]

Early wipe those cards are cheap

[weak mirage]

I mean Black never goes above 4 mil

Anyone Can affære that

Afford

[shell shadow]

Early wipe black is like 6, no?

[weak mirage]

Very early maybe

[shell shadow]

Supply drops too

Easy stims

[weak mirage]

It might be different next wipe since they added gunsmith 25

For The barter

Think the Price of Black might up a bit

[shell shadow]

Don't matter

https://streamable.com/nzhkpu

I'll pull it out my ass again

[wispy stratus]

i hate this game, but I love playing it

[blazing pollen]

anyone wanna play im lvl 5 and kinda new eu

[white pond]

play alone and watch videos

way better
