yeah its so nice having to click everything one by one and inspect and figure out if its good or not
thats hoiw the game is man 😄
xD
UI is not good in tarkov
and I wouldnt even know how to tell if it pierces a lvl 4
if lvl armour one that you look into and has lvl 4 plates insides?
when you look at tarkov bullet ballistics
it tells you what lv armor it pierces
you will notice that some bullets deal a lot of damage but cant pierce sht, those are flesh damage bullets, people like to use then just to shoot legs
maybe this is a dumb question, but why is keytool more expensive than docs case?
takes up less space
thing for me is that i feel like i've gotten a good handle on (non attachment) item values to vendor. all of that is gonna get flipped on its head when i get flea
not new to the game just need help with the first couple tasks, havent played game in a while
the GZ ones?
yes
dm me
i dmed you
im struggling looking for a 6B43 6A Zabralo-Sh can anyone help?
nope no one can, if not BSG will ban them
Its kinda fucked 😂
rip ive filled up my first junkkbox and only have 300k
Look online and see what u need to keep and sell the rest
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUP22GEc-tk for a bit of context btw
Battlestate Games makers of Escape From Tarkov have once again doubled down on not being able to drop gear to your friends and community.

Imagine a world without pest
he is saying, stop banning people for dropping gear?
to other teammates?
More or less, BSG is big on their attempts to stamp out rmt
good!
basically
but i was digging a bit deeper
the streamer who was banned was basically meeting his subscribers in game to drop them the zabralos
i dont think u would get into trouble for dropping 1 armor
or rather only people in his discord, who subscribe to him, ie paying him monthly fees
pesty probably gets loot worth millions n millions of rubles
so in a way said streamer was basically getting paid to give zabralos to people
if its just like 1 armor or just 1 kit then its not going to be a big deal , streamers simply get millions of rubles from their fans
yeah so the streamer didn't do it just once he was doing it loads of times but only to people who pay him $5/ month or something
which is kinda RMT in a way
honestly though, if people are this hard up to get a zabralo, then perhaps bsg needs to rethink the drop rates of zabralos / spawn rates of the boss
like tasks should be hard, but they shouldn't be nearly impossible
if you want to sell items on the flea market for an alternate currency like euros, how do you calculate how much to charge for?
also honestly his Hardcore series this wipe has been a treasure trove for me as a newbie on my first wipe
just trying to internalise the reasons why he does certain things and actions
and then remembering to do similar things myself
Just sell whatever you don’t need for hideout or tasks soon
would anyone be able to spare a pkp or help me kill kaban
@sharp verge thank you
I wouldnt sell off any items for level 35 and under tasks. you'll regret spending 2 days fighting over alkaline with your squad
That’s why I only play solo
And totally not because none of my irl friends play tarkov
am i tripping or is this sus? 40 survivals in a roww?
only 1100 hours and 65% surv?
Can be with scav
I know he has at least 10 pmc bc of achievement but @finite shale has like 71 or smth
I have 42 I think
Also 58 on pmc
Their name though lol

the full ergo mpx lmao
does anyone know why my free look doesn't reset back to normal after using it?
58 iss till kinda on the very higher side
judging byt the amount of kills he has vs raids hes is either a very campy player or just tries to avoid combat
heres my stats for example, he has like 50% more kills than me but he also has like 3 times more raids than me
average is 40
i died so many times to cheaters this wipe its insane
worst wipe for me in terms of that
do u need to do alll of pyramid scheme questi n one raid?
Can I buy a damaged Gzhel from the flea?
yeah
Will it count towards the quest?
yeah
Strange, everyone is selling non-damaged ones
i would asume a damage ghazzel fir would cost more simply because you dont need to damage it yourself
also didnt they make that you dont need a damaged armor now for the quest ?
ah
it's any ghzel
same for zabralo
Thanks!
is it better to do punisher 3 once i unlock better ammo the best i have avaliable to me rn is ps
alr
not really, normal for creeper play
Is the car extract bugged on interchange ? I saw it from far away, then when i got closer it just disappeared
or maybe someone took it lol
someone took it, probably?
someone took it, sometimes there's a weird bug with it where only the wheel moves
I've seen it on my scav a few times
No it was at the fist 10 secs of the raid i spawned on power station
oh weird
CHEATER TOOK IT
Yea i was happy to get that scav rep but well 😅
vacuumed 
hi , i have complete 3 task on ground zero , but cant complete from the vendors, are they bug?
Need to be found in raid.
if you mean the 3 medical items.
For most quests, you cannot buy the required items from traders/flea market.
Must be found by you, in a raid and extracted successfully (can't put in container and die).
i found it in raids and complete but i cant reeddem the prize
Take a screenshot of the Tasks page with the relevant trader.
no its not normal, its higher than avg for sure
Make sure youre going to the trader to finish tasks
top left
press complete
could someone buy a AUG A3 M1 low sight mount from peacekeeper and put it up on the flea? I don't have peacekeeper 3 yet but would like to try some other optics on the AUG.
cant sell things from traders on the flea. has to be FIR
of course, didn't think about that - thanks anyway
i have a problem with this game, whenever i got shot at i dont know from where? Is this a gamedesign or how to figure out where the shot came from?
half the time its skill issue, the other half its audio issue
better in game headsets and updating your audio drivers
i was in a shoreline raid and a guy around the corner was full sprinting and i didnt hear jack shit
ye
and the other other half is de-sync issue
i hear them but for goods sake cant find them
i use tactical headset
most of my fight i die dont know where i get shot at
searching going undercover
still cant see it
check fence shop sometimes
and the light is it intentional dark af in this game? like a the room has windows but still dark af why does only bright up the window frame and not the room?
thats a settings issue
i use landmarks settings
brightness up 25, so i can at least see what the room looks like but still have big issues with it
check your monitors settings
and if i do higher than that the snow is blinding me
gonna have to expiriment
i am god horrible at pvp and lose 9/10 gunfights that i'm in, how the hell am i supposed to get better when half the 300k guns i bring in i never even get to fire once?
Play a lot slower, learn the maps (especially spawns, high traffic areas) and then play around them to avoid the PVP
Also don’t bring in 300k guns?
issue is that im not wanting to avoid the pvp, i love pvp but 9/10 times i either get camped or just am too ass to actually kill people
are you aiming at the head? can you not hear people? are you running bad guns/ammo? need some details
Aim at the legs and profit
Play arena to get good at pvp
cqb only
i aim usually for thorax and let the recoil carry to the head, i hear people and somehow they shoot me the second i peak, even when i use bhopping or wide swing with a flashlight, my ammo is medium tier and the guns are alright or sometimes pretty good
Eh long range you either get the drop on em or you die first, so might as well get good at cqb
some of the only guns i can actually drop kills with are the pp kedr, sr2m, mp9 and so on
sounds like latency. are you cleaning your system software regularly and/or overclocking?
my pc struggles to run this game but i have zero issues with latency, fps is pretty bad though
spray and pray
tarkovs latency is directly attached to framerate, so you do
oh alright
yeah im upgrading my pc next month but other than that i can't do anything about it
i have everything at the lowest i can run except for resolution and still cap out about 30-45 frames
dont skimp on CPU and RAM, theyre the most important for running tarkov
NO, THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS
cpu is an i9-9900k so there's no struggle ther but my ram is struggling hard at 16gb or 2400mh
yeah, thats really bad
is that even ddr4????
yes sir
at minimum is that XMP?
xmp at 2400...
i also had a high hours buddy recommend to play offline's with impossible level ai to get better, not 100% sure that that's working but im trying
Remember to tag and curse yourself too
difficulty doesnt matter as much as Tagged and Cursed
so keep difficulty on 'as in online'?
you are NOT on XMP
hello guys, i'm struggling for more than 2 days to finish the jaeger Introduction quest and i cannot simply finish it. everytime i reach the outpost the letter is no longer there or i get a bad spawn and i ll die before reaching the outpost
any tips ? 😦
my apologies, i have it enabled in bios so i figured it was on
You sure the letters not there or are you missing it?
It’s white letter in white snow and you have to crouch to pick it up
nope, actually have to set it to what you want, unless your ram doesnt support this speed
99% sure the letter is no longer there when i reach the outpost
look up a video, the letter was hard as hell for me to spot when i did that quest
its hidden in the snow, but its there
anyone know how to fix launching issues?
As for dying on the way there that’s just the game, gotta learn pathing and learn from your mistake
Run as administrator
open CMD in windows and type "SFC /scannow" then when thats done, do an integrity check in the launcher
NO
theyre separate
I had the 10300 error with mine and it fixed after I set my bsg launcher to admin
thats a bypass, not trustworthy
huh?
yeah dude
open CMD in windows and type "SFC /scannow" then when thats done, do an integrity check in the launcher
@bronze inlet im reinstalling areans now is there a way to set a different path so its not in the same folder as eft?
i would lol. take the mag out and remove the grip to make it save space
idk man
@bronze inlet i think the issue is from them being in the same folder when downloaded. or atleast thats what it seemed like from the reddit thread i read through
Hi, what are some useful guides when it comes to learning the maps?
fucking life saver bigsak i owe you
Are there any smoke grenades for the nade launcher?
i don't think so, why?
I just think smokes are funny to use
is this at least average for a new player?
slightly below
eh yea basically
got to get that SR rating and kill count up a fair bit bud
alright ty
killing scavs improves your kd btw
I was doing a lot of naked runs at first, just trying to get a couple of nice pieces into my box and shit
hopefully should improve
i would recommend to check out a https://mapgenie.io and focus on 1 or 2 maps you want to learn. And then either start of with some scav runs or offline mode.
use the mobile app for the vip maps you cnt access
thats a pro tip
how do i change my gun being in single fire everytime i start wipe it keeps messing me up
double B
i know, i’m talking about the gun starting off in single fire, i forget to press B sometimes
or is it default
no way. have to check in raid
and everyone does this?
have to
kind of annoying
if anyone is down to help me learn streets, hit me up
just make it a habit and u chillin
the amount of times i died because i forgot it was single fire
start using dmr's 
I always check cus I like hearing click click
anyone down to teach me
yeah i am new to but I am from eu, so if anyone from eu is willing to play w me and teach me
too*
same im from eu
lucky
i wanna get better but idk what to even do, no idea how to do quests or make a gun
if youre from EU or anywhere else, you should change your discord server profile to say EU
anyone want to play new player NAE
also can i just go naked into raid just to complete tasks or do i need to extract
Some tasks you can get away with dying after complete, others you need to exfil
the game crashes after i press "play" help plz
Anyone can help? what food and drink items do i need to keep cuz im running out of space
keep Tushonka [mission], Iskra [mission], MRE, sugar [if making moonshine], drinks [depends on hydration value], Ramen noodles [Mission]
can you maybe also take a screen shot?
here
is there an ingame map?
Red is useless [Sell], Green can try sell on flee market, other ones can keep, blue could keep for moonshine?
you have to buy them 🙂
ok TY
no worries
is the pouch stash secured. like when you die you keep it?
if the pouch is in the right slot, even if you die you keep it
and everything you put in the pouch, you wont lose it
whats the fastest way to get these?
I have been seeing a lot of them on manequins on interchange
scavs often have them as well
yeah they're literally everywhere haha
alr ty
Gun suggestion after reaching the Flea market and being level 17 ? I have been running AKS-74UB modded, whats the next upgrade i could get, suggestions ?
What's your play style?
I think i am way more confident with automatics
Honestly, the aks 74u is pretty good
AKS-74UB worked wonders for me ngl, but i want to use the next better thing
Uh- help?-
If you mod that thing to have more ergo, you'll probably like it a lot since it has low recoil
The aks74u
Yes i was running it modded, not crazy modded but stilkl
hey i jusst bought scav junk for 1.1 mil not knowing you need cases for weapons, ammo, etc. are there any lvl 1 traders that sell weapon cases? (other than jaeger bc i dont have him). I only have about 260k rubles left
LOL no
im doing alot of runs on ground zero if someone wants to join me
still learning the map really
im lvl 35 with 0 bc i dont need them, youll be fine
Another gun that's my most favorite gun to mod, is the m4a1
It also looks hella cool in the process
also im lvl 3 but i still have not gotten the introduction quest from mechanic
i only have "saving the mole"
did they change the introduction quest?
thats not a starter quest now, you have to finish all of ground zero
broooooo
@sharp remnant Thoughts on the UMP ?
Never tried it but did read that its good but the poists were for previouse patch
It's alright, I never used it before because I didn't get any good ammo for it. But try to mod for ergo, since it also has a very controllable and low recoil.
I'm trying to transfer items from a scav raid to my stash and it keeps flashing icons and not doing anything, so I alt f4 then load back up and can do a few things before it repeats... Also just got error 520 or something. Any advice?
what should i save up for first?
cant get solar power or intel 3 but pretty much everything else is maxed
its like 4.5 mil all tg
Worth it
whats so good about it
nothing, youre done
it's +40% experience to physical skill levelling
i wish
as long as your generator is running
i want solar power but im never gonna get it
And there's a filter in
ya true but they're not that expensive
i mean
im always broke but tbh it is because of my hideout
ya that's normal
so ig i dont really need it
should i just sell scav shotguns to the fence if i cant sell them anywhere else?
or should i dissasemble them and sell them to mechanic
keep semi auto shotguns, sell pump action or bolt actions to fence
you can repair em until theyre slightly over 50 percent and sell em to mechanic
dissassembling is not worth the effort
also should i keep the scav ak platform guns or nah
i have a few of them
like the akms
alr
ill save up and then after that ig im done
actually im probably just gonna do more peacekeeper tasks to get usd and make it cheaper
if i do a practice raid on labs does it use the card or do i just need it in my inv
like will i loose the card if i do practice raid
no
im updating my game and its making me reinstall, is it going to reset my progress
no
thx
which is better

Is this correct? I found it in a raid, but is it supposed to take 40% of the sell price as a fee when I sell it on flea market? I just got level 15 so im new to flea market
Lima is very average and doesn't lead anywhere, Centurion leads to better presets.
The fee scales differently per item
How's that guy not dying to ap-20
So I'm guessing that that item has a higher rate than others
I have about 5 lab cards I’ve gotten from my scav over the past week. I’ve never done labs before is it in my best interest to just sell them off or try and play labs?
you uh, didnt aim right
labs is fun try it out and if you don't like it sell it
it might look like you did but the game can be stupid when it comes to aim
How
I'm shooting where the barrel is pointing
im struggeling to get to 30. Is there any easier way than griding quests?
No snow splashes anywhere indicating it wasn't a miss
Okay I might Try it then!
NO
snow doesnt splash when shot 😭
and when you look at the footage correctly youre shooting slightly above him
thats all it is
youre shooting over his head
Well thats lame
can someone help me look over my invo to see whats worth keeping and selling - im level 4
do you need money?
kinda that but its just that my invo i crowded withs shit and idk what is good or bad
so on dev map all the orange markers are exits just for scavs? do they have special rules like flair, money ect?
on woods*
Sell everything that aren't barter items I'd say.
?
why the question?
Anyone trying to assit me with a mission on woods
ima keep it 100 ion know what barter items mean
I don't quite understand that sentence, but I'm guessing you're asking what barter items are.
Anything that looks like a completely useless item, bolts, wrenches, toilet paper. Those types of things.
ohh okay thanks
Barter is another word for exchange or trade. They are items you can exchange with the traders for other items. @tidal sapphire
can anyone help me and a friend find the stationary guns for prapor on ground zero?
Which of these is a better mid-level (15-25ish) gun build?
Anyone have any tips for finding the shmaska (ski hat with holes for eyes)? I've just been spamming scav factory runs with no luck
farming scavs on customs or night factory if your feeling spicy
if you have m855 unlocked, i would use the g36 over the AK
naw use the aug it has less recoil than most meta M4s as a similar price point
but g36 is very fun
but that optic
46 recoil and you can switch it out for the rail with one mod
i agree, but if he's already got the g36, might as well just use it
isnt that arbitrarily like mechanic 4 tho?
Is there a way to keybind shoulder swap to my left lean key?
im still rocking 74-u every raid bc every time i get money it goes straight into my base
pk 3
that is based 74-u is the literaly best budget gun
yeah i miss old budget guns tho
honestly think they Vepr'd my sks
the sks kinda fell off with PS being prapor 3 now
i mean it might make a late wipe revival
which is to say
Upped the price and unlocks to a point where it seems meaningless unless you crunch the math and realize its cheaper to get a better gun that uses the same ammo
yeah the ammo too
but i was just saying like.. they changed the price point to a point where its like "Why wouldnt i get an akm now for the same price"
pretty much the veper km is easier and cheaper to mod and with a lot more options
Does anybody actually know all the maps in the game in order by size? I searched on google and couldn't find anything
or a 136, or a 209 depending on the ammo you get
i do sort of, streets is number one, woods 2, shorline 3, lighthouse 4, interchange 5, customs 6 and factory and labs
oh and reserve is smaller than customs
Streets is the most dense map, it is by no means the largest in size, Shoreline and Woods are much larger
You can't put a flashlight on the AUG can you?
i thought it was the largest by size now after the expansion
really i heard a lot about that, ill have to look
Streets is smaller than Interchange in size btw
its by far the hardest map to move a distance so i would keep it at 1# for size
Thanks, I'm kinda new so I'm trying to figure out what maps are the best to learn but since I learned Woods quite easy I figure I can learn Intercharge, Customs and Reserve cause I got a lot of tasks there
It just has tons of different areas and buildings in your way
customs,shorline,woods,reserve and interchange are task heavy maps
dont worry abouyt interchange too much
is this any better than kirasa?
it has better kevlar so i would say yes
thank you
you lose out on neck coverage but gain a lot more in protection
The THOR is better than the Kirasa if you don't mind losing the extra coverage
Why not? Is it hard?
It has class 3 inserts instead of 2
its not too hard and it does not have that many tasks
I heard Reserve is hard because of the extracts
yeah i would say sewer is gonna be your best freind
d2 is a gamble but i would reccomend to go into d2 from the white dome and slowly go down from there
What about shoreline?
is scav case a good money generator? i have 5mil right now and can build it for 3.4mil
shorline is easy to learn but its big and sometimes annoying
be careful of PMC spawns and river crossing points and you should be alright
tons of pmcs hang out at pier, resort and cottage (where sanitar can spawn, PMCs go there)
So I guess customs would be a good one since it's not that big and there's lots of tasks there?
customs if a fun map and a ton of tasks
good scav spawns and is arguably the best map
Shoreline has a few spawns where you can be challenged ~20-30 seconds in from multiple directions.. Assuming all PMCs follow the "typical path"
But it is a good map now tbh
for real they need to do some work on spawns, but man the loot goes crazy
There's only a couple of spawns that are a slight problem, mainly around customs side & up by path to lighthouse
I cant find the wine 😭
check the back area by the coolers, the storage area
if its not up front its back there
Shoreline isn't the worst map for spawns
LH > GZ > 1 specific reserve spawn
I did, its alright im dead now anyway, il try again next raid
ground zero is just o-block man
Is there like an end game task there or something? I went there a few times and people always somehow 1tap me through armor with a slug or something
Yea you need to run immediately if you spawn path to lighthouse
people are doing a task called setup where you use shotguns, theya re probably using slugs that go through your kevlar inserts, try armor with lv3 kevlar and that should help a bit
Okay, thanks
So what is your favorite map for scavs?
if i need scav kills now, i do customs
most maps work but stay away from reserve and shorline if you want scav kills
Do you mean killing scavs or killing PMC as scav?
killing scavs as pmc
Sorry if I didn't ask properly but I meant your favorite map for doing scav runs
OH if its a scav run i like to do reserve if im feeling spicy but ive heard amazing things about loot on woods and shorline
What side plates can i put in the ANA M2 plate carrier?
western SAPPI plates
Thanks
To be fair, if you spawn top of path to lighthouse. You're likely gonna be challenged from the right. So just watch our
can someone help me with wine bottle quest
Okay, thank you really much for your help.
Yes that’s a tough area to start in
Reserve black pawn and white pawn are good for loot
I love starting up there, it's a quick sprint into resort
I always get sniped lol
Can anyone help me with eft's fps?
i feel like its impossibel for me to get anything stable especially seomthign good and im pretty sure my pc isnt that bad
guys how do i fix this outside of raid
What’s your specs?
Buy a splint from therapist
rogues count for the scav kills towards punisher pt4?
getting punisher 2 done was awful
Therapist or Grizzly or Splint
Ideally Grizzly.
ok
i did a 40 minute raid just so i could do it in one go
whats a quiet marksman rifle or sniper
no grizzly 😭
They really said punisher kinda blows let’s make it really blow and threw in some ass maps into the rotation
DVL 
Why use a grizzly on a fracture?
I'm not exactly quite new but i haven't played for a long time, stuck on tarkov shooter part 3. any tips?
i ran factory naked with mosin but no luck
Vpo w apm
apm be 3k a bullet tho
fuck that
Healing whith therapist cost money and does not give experience.
A grizzly will heal you from anything + XP
vpo apm t4 armor and ur like jesus
For some reason it’ll one tap through a pack 4 plate
can i get my friend to shoot me for this
u dont need too many bullets
or could i just buy it off flea
i think tarkov shooter is fun!!!
how many do you think is enough
yeah
i brought like three mags and pouch ammo
uhm
wont set u back too much
i need to get on your level first
what res is that?
🤣
4:3
Anyone wanna run Customs a bit ? I have to kill scavs and a few quests there to do
1280x960?
with new armor apm on factory is rly strong u get lucky one taps
wait pack all 3 mags with apm?
gpu cpu?
do i just aim torso?
u dont need to change ur resolution there is a seperate setting for aspect ratio so it dosent change ur ui resolution
for me it just says 1920x1080 and my aspect ratio is 4:3
i do yeah
ooh okay
Yes and ram
should i just vendor it i saw people saying its bad now
okay i'll give it a go tomorrow when i cool off a bit lol
take the plates put
out
the carrier sucks its still t6 plates
appreciate it
good luck
.
yeah but is complicated with new armor
also i don't really like running factory as a PMC. would rather try my luck on ground zero while i still can
hah thanks i'll need it
ground zero so fun
IM brand new, what should i do
i miss it 😔
yeah it's really fun but overall bad loot
loot is awful
Will they ever add the higher level queue for gz?
would it be possible to just get it off flea
laterb
Also if they add gz for higher levels definitely needs better loot
guys is mgt worth taking over a cms
Literally nothing there
yup
uh i dont know a lot about it but im PRETTY SURE u can use a gzhel with shit plates and just ruin the plates and turn it in as far as i know.
but that clip man, damn
someone correct me or back me up if they know
i can't get over it
Some armor can carry armor plates right, can that armor have like 4 durability but the plates have max?
Or is the armor hp linked to the plates
@mint light while we're here what's your oppinion on setup?
i believe u need every part of the armor halved,
you seem fairly experienced
?
its fun, but since they made it earlier in the skier quest tree it needs to be less kills for the new players
15 kills for new players is tuff
What I’m trying to say is can you get some really low durability low level armor, and stick tier 6 plates in it, so no one picks it up cause the number is like 9/120 but it’s secretly got really good protection?
oh yeah u can do that
i ran 3 raids before i died and got 2 so far, i'm happy with that
i thought u were talking about gzhel
pirrhana is go to right?
if u put plates in it the durability goes up btw
Idk what a gazelle
LFG customs
gzhel
yeah
that's also 1k a bullet 
but most people use kirasa armor and put tier 5 plates in it or something
jaeger 2
piranha is incredibly strong it makes setup easier
huh really??
Why kirasa I’ve seen it a few times it doesn’t look that special
yeah its cheap from him
it holds high tier plates and used to be a lvl 3 armor so it can fake people out
i get a lot of tier 5 kirasas from insurance
ive gotten some crazy good kits off people when im doing setup cuz piranha ruins armor
it cooks
its like worse flechette which dosent mean much since flechette ruins everything
okay so i focus on jeager for now ig
but with people running mainly t4 rn u kill quick
and t5 is like a few extra shots
i get two tapped by piranha a lot
do you run or have you ran standard scav mp-155s or do you mod your shotgun for recoil
Throw a reflex on it and call it
i use 153s with a suppressor and highest mag capacity and targetfinder sight
Or full mod an ultima
u can use whatever u want
No inbetween
that's what i've been doing yeah lol
I just ran stock weapons bc I would camp big red
have you completed it?
i would run dorms or crackhouse whatever was closer
also i was doing evil watchmen at the same time
dude, those are the only 2 locations i go to while running dorms
noone is there, noone
people go dorms when u are questing and trying to survive 💀
its cool
Also why is it called crack house
at dorms i encountered 2 guys on my 3rd game today, got one but not the other.
2nd game, nobody was at dorms and i was the only one there
and every other game before setup i ran, i always went crackhouse, noone was there
extract right next to it, on the way to fortress or old gas and it has med spawns
it's like a meth lab lol
oh I didn’t pick up on that oops
the med spawn area
also i haven't found any meds there this wipe
did they nerf the spawns there?
still better than blue card
Anyone got the rusted blood key for 'the door' quest?
i feel like its either loaded or has nothing
or people just loot it b4 me
i was the first one there for a few raids now and found nothing on the 2nd floor
1st floor is always decent, but 2nd nope
2 weeks ago or so
oh also. helmet or no helmet?
was it a pain for you or no?
I hated the whole process
fair enough
Was when insurance was bugged
i use helmet on factory, once we get later in wipe i dont bother at all
what kind of helmet?
Got 20 loadout back after I finished the quest
LOL
so you did it all in 1 day i presume?
i like faceshields for factory so lshz and ops core lvl 2 was cool
stops like a singular pst pistol round at most but its something
it also has the rac but im not sure u can use both at the same time
https://streamable.com/7tobvp nikita pls bring this back 😔
got it
im not i die every raid i just play for clips or kills
I'm gonna need some veteran advice here, I got Chemical Part 4 from skier and Out of Curiosity with the Therapist, if i do one of them I instantly fail the other and lose rep with the other one right? It's a lot of rep
lmao alright
but like if i get a couple kills a raid idc about dying
had fun
i dont have the patience to play to survive yk
i feel you
How do i cancel my grenade throw once ive pulled the pin
switch to one of your weapons
u lose rep and get a rep redemption quest and u get all the rep back
Thanks
👍
skier wants a milly, so his is the hardest, but if u also dont need the rep u never have to pay him same for other traders
therapist wants cheap keys and prapor wants nades
i used to have rly good clips but i posted them on streamable and it deleted them all
i just have like remnants
cuz i didnt play last two wipes
you don't need to prove anything to me any more, those 2 clips were enough 🤣
spot the odd one out
Can anyone guide me through an extraction in reserve for a quest?
Oh ok, thanks
its me cuz im a bum
can i get some help with task?
Try #pvp-lfg and be more specific, like what your level is and which task to start with
Can you keybind your left lean key to shoulder swap also? So when I hit left lean it automatically shoulder swaps my weapon?
that's an interesting question, would love to know the answer honestly
Maybe lean on hold & swap on press
But you have no control on specifically selecting what shoulder "only swap"
I can also see it causing problems in raid
is shorline where most of the cheaters go
is bunker hermetic door all extract?
If it’s activated yeah
fuck bro I found a tank battery next to hermetic
Should I wait for someone to activate or risk it?
Guys whats the default press type for Walk (Caps)?
Lucky mf
How much time you got ?
I’m in my bed lmao 😂 dw
How much food and water ?
Ultima build is overkill for setup or should I just minimize the modding for shotguns?
Found a tank battery on a scav run in the underground psp1 key that pmcs left there
same I found in psp2
Wait 15 minutes
how do I make the run not risky
outside or from ug?
I would say hug the buildings around outside but keep in mind of windows
ezpz
You're at bunker hermetic?
should be yea
Should be
that's depo hermetic
wrong bunker?
that's a scav exit
fuck bro 😄
Yeah
It’s upstairs at the entrance
out to your left, all the way down, up the ramp
there will be a green light above a door
@mint light this is the only clip of me playing tarkov before LOL, accidently just found it
it was 2 years ago, i did not know this was a scav then that's why i clipped it
should I reload the shop page just before a barter comes in stock or..?
i was very proud of that shot.
I do it as it hits 0
wdym
use the flea market instead of trader window supposedly its faster
bro only if I realised that first :DDD
but I clutched it the train came
and no contest
Yeah I was able to get an item case so I think flea is faster… also had auto fill barter on but idk if that helps from flea or only from trader window
lucky the raiders weren't there
yeah
what maps am i least likely to get sniped from a mile away
factory
execpt for factory
lmfao
factory has too many chads
what lvl are you?
I would just grind some ground zero
are you looking for loot. are you doing quests?
quests
are you done with your ground zero quests?
isnt reserve like woods?
(ive never played reserve)
no reserve is the map with the undeground bunker maze
reserve is a pretty small map
it has 3 story buildings above
thats good
and because of that most of the fights are in doors
Browse the interactive maps of Escape From Tarkov! You can find loot maps, locations, hidden secrets and more!
I would use this to learn the maps
but reserve is also mainly chad-dominated like factory
any maps that have good loot like woods?
dang
i wouldn't say woods has good loot
but good loot is like mainly streets which i hate
way too large of a map
and my PC melts when i play on it
200k is not considered a good run tbh
If you need help with quests. you can check out the sherpa discord as well. #sherpa-info
good round would be anything above 500k i'd say
that's fair then
i ain't no chad trust me i'm basically just as new as you
i haven't played for a long time but know some stuff 
how much does gp coin sell for on flea
It’s good for some people it’s really not a bad run yk
Flea price monitoring, charts, price history, crafts, barters, btc farm profit, quests, maps, weapon loadouts for Escape From Tarkov
use this to check such info
i dont know why but i feel like im getting worse
If you are new to the game it’s a good run
i cant even win against the ai
How long have you been playing?
Tarkov aint easy lol
Happens to everyone sometimes
ever since 0.14 released
i guess it's good for anyone under level 15
I don’t remember what this update is called or any other update man
Yeah
this wipe
i mean, for me at least, when i'm questing and make 200k on the side i'm good with it
Wdym if you don’t have flea you can sell for items for that much
but if i go looting i don't leave under like 500k
It takes time man
i always leave early on woods cause late game i always get killed by snipers
ok
honestly i've never heard a new player like woods
Sure but then 200k to traders is probably 400k on the flea
wow
i like woods cause i hit jackpots there
its my brothers favorite
What have you found so far ?
You start bad without stress.
You get worse cause every game is a trauma.
Then you stop caring and start winning.
You are in fact getting worse, trust the process.
can you wear headset with ronin helmet ?
Scav case 🥰
my highest was 2 lions 1 cat roller drill and some other items that cost less
I love me some gambling with the scav case
ight how long will it take?
You can find violet key cards and ledexes on woods I found a violet this wipe already
no
Moonshine 😍😍
also even though i'm not basically new, i still struggle with extreme trauma and fucking stress when i play. every time i hear something i literally caps for 5 minutes until there are no footsteps near. i hate encountering players it makes me so scared
It’s ok not super great*
eh.. honestly kinda crap imo
sure but i keep getting sniped without getting sniped i can kill anybody
class 3 shit ammo? no...
True but not the scavs lmao
anybody got some tips for that
one thing that did help me is accepting dying is a part of tarkov but i wanna get rid of the fear
Become the sniper mate you need to adapt to you environment yk
how am i gonna find loot tho i gotta walk and find some
Be a rat bro sit in that bush sit on that rock sit in that corner you got this
nono. let the fear drive you
3 totally different answers
Don’t go on the road don’t run around unless you are in the open don’t immediately run into places look around
who do i trust LOL
@whole viper basically, if you're never out hunting, you'll always be the guy who's hunted. Sometimes you'll be hunted, and that's alright, but you also want to do some hunting once in a while :)
snipers are smarter than that trust me ive sniped before in woods
whoever's arguements seems to be the best for your situation :)
its worse when they have teammates
Same but it’s shit rn because I’m f the snow
does that work better in terms of winning fights more often?
okay sir you got my vote
Not really not if they can’t find you 🤑
so what do you suggest chiefqueef
what is PMC
i was in a house and a sniper was waiting for me worst part is that his teammate is pushing me
The way I go about fighting is: I only fight the fights that I know I can't lose.
are you like fully serious or sarcastic i can't tell
ok what game mode should i play? im just newbie
Then push out and go behind the house
that's something i never think about and/or analyse in my raids
Or you shouldn’t have been in the house to begin with yk
i tried to then the sniper headshot me
you should.
In my previous PMC life I killed 30-40 PMCs before eventually biting off more than I could chew.
if i wasnt it wouldve made it easier
is there any free items here for newbie?
yea but what do i do when i hear someone? as i said i just start capsing and shit my pants but it doesn't seem to work tbh
Play the game more until you don't do that
do you got any quick tips for that or?
i like this chiefqueef guy
If he heard you, push or flee.
if he didn't?
Unles camp the f*****
if you know exactly where he is, push him and prefire aroudn the corner/etc
if you dont know exactly where is, use nades to get more audio cue to play with
or alternatively, sit and wait until you get sight of him and blast him
They do.
quick tips?? haha, no... There's no quick way of doing that.
But the most important thing you need to knock into your head is to stop treating every fight as a "win or die trying" situation.
how many bitcoin barters can you do per reset?
how should i treat it instead
that you should never risk your life.
If you are mobile when you hear em they hear you, rule of thumb.
@whole viper All the kills you get should be people who think you're hacking because they never heard you nor saw you.
but how come if i'm advised to push if i know the location of the enemy?
never push.
Pushing is gambling. You will never always win a gamble.
how important is ear pro?
ughhhh i hate when i ask for tips and i get different answers from different people because everyone has a different playstyle
yeah, brings me onto the second most important tip. Don't listen to what others have to say. Carve your own path.
which is uh.. counteracting what I previously said but... o well
Not pushing is worse.
Way worse.
i've heard that from people more often, yeah
I never push anything unless I have no other choice. Seems to be working out for me...
and do you know their logic behind saying so?
Exemple.
yeah...? you come off as more confident, and most of the times you surprise the enemy
I'm not saying he should camp. All I'm saying is that he shouldn't be pushing.
Yeah they desync the f* out of you, anyway its real world tactics, aggro wins, period.
except you don't really surprise anyone. Everyone are expecting you to push. It's how most people play.
Dont be detected, if you are, be too fast for anybody to react.
okay, what would you say he should have done?
Most people piss themselves and wait.
(me)
in urban warfare the cost of life is about 8:1 iirc in the defendant's advantage. It's scary how easy it is to get insane kill counts when defending buildings.
Start moving, make me afraid, lock me here, run around, prevent me from going in, take height, nade, jump out go around.
which ties to the previous point, hunt or be hunted?
I served, it is true, but aggro still wins.
if you hunt you're going to get killed more often than if you never hunted.
True, but sometimes the hunt will find ya
I agree, but you just have to hope that whoever is defending isn't planning on doing some aggression of themselves.
?
My only point is that in case of fght, you must be overhelming.
And fights arent always dodgeable.
First hitter wins.
who wants to come with me to Reserve ? Need help for Bunker pt 1
@craggy hull sure, I agree. But we're talking urban warfare here. The realities of outdoors combat is very different.
If you heard em its urban warfare with trees
ask in #pvp-lfg
Not range
absolutely not the same.
what sort of army talk is this
immersed oldhead tarkov strats
the uncs have taken over
lmfao
its unc or be unced
@whole viper Listen, you don't have to fight any fight. There is almost always a way to just avoid it all together. A guy 10 meters ahead of you? put a tree inbetween you and him and run the other way.
do you need aesa's for quests?
fair
what's your level btw? what are your stats? in game hours?
wiki is your friend, go figure out yourself :)
nobody remembers every quest items, we all just use the wiki.
you cannot dodge a 10 meter fight unless youre in a building thats for sure
did you put it in your container and then died?
ya in gamma and died
I've done it plenty :/
also anybody here actually like interchange as a map? i hate it
you have to live
then the other guy is scared
ty
items in your container will have their FIR status removed if you die.
also you cant do runthrough
I'm level 25.
after factory and woods, whats the next best map to try and learn
2275h online 💀 💀
question, my thorasx is black but i am not dead and i am not losing health
I bet he is after I've thrown 4 grenades in his direction.
does that mean i am ok?
idk if factory/woods are recommended buts its the first 2 i really figured out, ready to branch into some other maps regularly.. just dont know which is best
Can someone help me with some dorms tasks... ive died like my like 10 raids am down so bad
you can't fix it, if you get 1hp damage directly to your thorax you will die.
hey smeden
hello gamingdad
are u enjoying immersed dad beginner chat
hours played is irrelevant though, tells nothing about one's skill nor experience.
thats awesome!
well at least i am alive, thanks
enjoy being alive while it lasts ;)
yes unfortunately the opponent was more immersed than me
also will my PMC stop screaming or do i have to get used to it until i get to the extract?
(if i get to it)
a painkiller should fix that
a lot of arena anglers
just.. you probably want to make sure that the painkiller doesn't give you damage after it's worn off @tiny badge
proptial will do that for example, not quite sure if it will kill you, but it might.
did they recently change factory to "easy" because I swear it never said "easy" before
what about some Vodka?
I'm pretty sure it changes with level or.. stats or something
im against a pkp and a axmc
how much have they suffered to get those kits
ahh ok
uh.. if you dehydrate you'll die so.. I'd probably avoid that
i am in the big red building on customs
because the PMC i encounter on factory are not "easy"
I don't think so. I think it's just a... general idea of how difficult it is in general.
they are though. Most go there with like a ppsh or mosin or something haha
i never stay alive long enough as a pmc on factory to find out

you find out one way or another. Either by killing someone, or them killing you
What does this sign at lower right mean?
means it's a pistol grip
Thx
anyone oce/jap wanna learn streets with me a bit better, gonna try to the insides of streets a bit more
how do i make my tarkov less pixelated?
What injectors do you guys usually carry in a raid?
is there any injector case i can get with level 1 traders?
i do not think so
damn
ok
FLEA
but on flea its like 800k
same on traders
alright
it doesnt matter
chemical part 4 you can get a stim case from therapist
ok
what are the most useful injectors?
armor class 6 is the best in the game
ooh yay
mule is super good if you have a lot of loot... otherwise propitol or that regen stim I guess
is propital the one that makes you run fast?
If I put a Found in raid GPU into my Bitcoin farm and then remove it will it keep its FIR status?
or like have a lot of stamina
