[soft tapir]

i have tried it already

[hazy veldt]

he needs to alt-f4 and then restart and reconnect

bug with new patch

[astral glen]

??dc

[carmine lantern]

for users experiencing the "game aborted, try reconnect" error try this possible solution #community-support message

[soft tapir]

every single person i meet is a fucking kappa chad one tapping me after seeing a single pixel of me

[astral glen]

??skillissue

oh

[soft tapir]

?

[tidal lagoon]

das crazy

[hazy veldt]

I don't know what to say, at night raids, I meet other pmcs maybe 1 raid out of 10, if I just wait in a bush for a while.

[astral glen]

idk man I thought it was a funny command but guess I was wrong

[hazy veldt]

last 20 minutes, almost always dead.

[tidal lagoon]

i think its funny

[soft tapir]

like look at this dood. the embodiment of every person in my lobby

[hazy veldt]

try different region servers, where it's early morning compared to you.

so there's less people and more dead servers.

[astral glen]

he's literally me

[soft tapir]

good for you

[astral glen]

could be you

just have to quit your job

[tidal lagoon]

no suits he is noob

[astral glen]

break up with your gf

eat microwaved meals only

[hazy veldt]

I'd suggest a certain alternative if online tarkov isn't fun for you, but it's not allowed here.

For legal purposes, I am talking about Ghost Recon Breakpoint

[soft tapir]

im gonna try for the 9th time

sit in a bush

[tough widget]

is there some sort of bug to search faster? I see streamers instantly search backpacks. is that just what happens when you max out searching skills?

[tidal lagoon]

high skill = search faster, elite skill 50% chance to instantly search container

[tough widget]

ohhhh, makes a lot more sense now thank you

[glad prawn]

12 hours a filing cabinet slave

[tough widget]

wait can you just keep searching and unsearching to get the 50% every time? or is it 50% per container

[tidal lagoon]

they removed the abiliy to spam the search button until it insta searched

[astral glen]

You used to be able to, you can't do that anymore and it's 50% per container

[tough widget]

ahhh ok

[glad prawn]

Still really good

[soft tapir]

finally after 10 attempts i finished it

i think i had the cofdm early wipe but sold it

is it possible to scav case these items?

[tidal lagoon]

that shit will literally cost millions and take fifty months

[soft tapir]

do i need to go to lighthouse for these

[tidal lagoon]

yes u can find virtex on reserve too afaik but its better to go lighthouse

and cofdms are on streets too

[soft tapir]

goddamnit

[lilac cloak]

Hit me up if anyone needs "the door" quest. Got rusted key and have no use for it. Happy to help

[weary quartz]

What map is best to find the food items for jaeger

[raven quarry]

ground zero

or streets

or woods

[urban jasper]

Can someone help me try get the Far Forward GPS for Intel lvl 3? really struggling

[bold kernel]

it can spawn ground zero as well now

if you find labs annoying try that

[tender prism]

what silencers should i keep?

[lofty wave]

theres a bunch that are good but it really just depends on what guns you think youll use

[granite stone]

@tender prism for 556 i use the mini bc it has very low ergo debuff and defense daniel for everything else.

[ashen dagger]

Where does one find the rusted blood key for the quest The Door?

[urban jasper]

wait no way

[urban jasper]

is there a specific spawn for it?

[tidal lagoon]

on the wiki

[tidal lagoon]

is that confirmed now

[upbeat elk]

yes, but only a specific place afaik

[urban jasper]

do you know which spot?

[carmine garnet]

Has anyone been able to complete "Postman Pat - Part 1" for Prapor? This stupid letter isn't spawning on the dead scav in factory

[tidal lagoon]

yes, it has a 100% spawn rate

did you accept the task?

[carmine garnet]

omg i hope so otherwise ill feel really dumb

Yes i did.

So, i've only tried it in offline mode (dry run before I do it live) and it wont spawn. Is it because its offline?

[unreal horizon]

it should spawn fine in offline

[carmine garnet]

hmmm, nope. I just checked now and when i looted him its just regular loot

[obsidian narwhal]

Its in hs pockets, dont loot him

[carmine garnet]

is it a physical thing i have to loot on or near him? or would it be in the "loot table" section

[obsidian narwhal]

Like at his chest

[plucky tangle]

bro the fast mt visor on my lshz just saved me from a ak round to the eyes wtf is my luck

i thought it was useless LOL

[carmine garnet]

jfc are u serious. I got it.

[plucky tangle]

visor not even the full face shield

[carmine garnet]

thanks waffle

[plucky tangle]

why do i always see geared people using this helmet

[woeful prairie]

still happen to have it?

[tidal lagoon]

they are either not really geared or dumb

[upbeat elk]

next time use the wiki to check a task properly, it will save you tons of time

[sour granite]

running some solo streets farming money rn. if anyone need tips advice, coaching feel free to dm me or hop in stream

[plucky tangle]

i killed a guy with a fully decked out m4 when they were using that helmet

i head eyes him with a mosin lol

[tidal lagoon]

decked out m4 can be a lot of things but the helmet is mid at best anyways

[carmine garnet]

I did, but I guess i missed that one tiny detail that it wasn't in the scavs loot container. ah well.

[upbeat elk]

Always scroll down to the "Guide" section

[carmine garnet]

Yeah thats what i missed, ope.

Learn about damage falloff and then also learn about damage absorption. Then come back and tell me again how Igolnik is best.

[mint light]

hit head taps with 37 dmg ammo

so they will be alive after i shoot them

[pure compass]

yall must have bad dsync because a shot in the head drops everyone for me lmao

[mint light]

not with 37 damage

at more than like 25 meters

[pure compass]

i like taking my fights cqb so im not really worried about falloff

[mint light]

helmets can tank igolnik too

cuz its only 37 damage

[pure compass]

ive killed a guy with a slap plate on his shit with igolnik i dont really run guns with that ammo tho

[upbeat elk]

Its always the newbies trying to argue. Just take the advice, you clearly dont know.

[mint light]

anything you specifically have done is super anecdotal

you arent everyone

[heady canopy]

bro trak your the only one who tries to argue

[mint light]

trak is down to earth about the game

[upbeat elk]

k weirdo

[mint light]

airwingmarine down!

[heady canopy]

we have a history

this guys an idiot

[upbeat elk]

we do? who are u lol

[mint light]

is he ur tarkov discord opp

[heady canopy]

lol

[upbeat elk]

probably some newbie who was wrong about smth and then got angry that i had to tell him the truth

[pure compass]

no one is tryna argue but if anything since you clearly know about this game so much dont be a chump and say get educated to people how about you try to educate them as well?

[upbeat elk]

Im more of a guy who directs people to learn. Not spoon feed.

[hushed field]

bro cooked airwingmarine

[upbeat elk]

I told you exactly what you need to research and then come back.

[pure compass]

how is educating someone spoon feeding when this channel is meant for beginners who ask for help

[upbeat elk]

I explained to you what you need to learn.

Dont be lazy

[pure compass]

you need to learn how to not be such a dick to people we're all here learning new shit everyday playing this game no matter how experienced you think you are

[upbeat elk]

How about u stop being so upset about me not spoon feeding you info, but making you search it yourself.

[pure compass]

you aren't really spoon feeding any information youre just tryna hint towards it without really being helpful just more of a wannabe know it all

[upbeat elk]

If giving you hints about what game functions you need to read on, to understand how ammo works, is not being helpful. Then thats on you being a lazy brat

[undone drum]

Is 🧢 hinting?

[pure compass]

ofc im interested in looking into it but when you give off this typa attitude to people is craziness

[unreal horizon]

no one cares

the way you talk makes me want to talk shit too

[lofty wave]

trak being a dick but hes right about the ammo just stop talking ur arguing for no reason ur not gonna suddenly win

[undone drum]

nice

[upbeat elk]

Cry about it ig

[unreal horizon]

real

[upbeat elk]

huh?

[pure compass]

yea i understand that but theres no need to give off attitude for people who are still learning

[still jolt]

Can i do SVD kills for the punisher part 6\ on ground zero?

[upbeat elk]

You were arguing. Thats not "learning".

[undone drum]

kinda annoying response

[unreal horizon]

[upbeat elk]

maybe open your eyes and see that it wasnt me who posted the cap?

[mint light]

what

[undone drum]

i usually pair high pen and high damage as 1 to 1 with fast firing guns

[unreal horizon]

🤯

[undone drum]

like HK and RPK

[unreal horizon]

lmfao

[pure compass]

and ofc many people are gonna assume for ballistics that whichever ammo is at the top is the best and since you guys brought up damage falloff ofc i need to get informed about that as well im not saying you are wrong but i am saying you are in the wrong for being the type to get emotional abt it and attempt to argue

[mint light]

i just did cap emoji

[unreal horizon]

k

[mint light]

noted!

[unreal horizon]

skull emoticon

[undone drum]

i agree

[upbeat elk]

damn im so emotional rn, im gonna take 5 minutes to weigh my options

[mint light]

LMAO

[pure compass]

thank you and i do fw certain guns so for ex the m4 ill run m856A1 with it nothing better really bc the availability is nice and pen nd damage are good

[pure compass]

youre good brother take a breath

[undone drum]

Loading Loot issues : #eft-chat message

[wispy coyote]

man

i was in queue for 20 mins i thought i just couldnt find a game lol

[nimble ledge]

Are there any patterns in the loot spawns at all? When I started I was pulling bitcoins left and right from chek 15 but now im pulling nothing. Was i just getting lucky?

[plucky tangle]

i lost like 500k roubles on kits doing jager mosin kill quest 💀

[orchid isle]

never give up never what

[hazy veldt]

you'll get most of them back tomorrow?

unless they're broke af, nobody is going to take your mosin

[plucky tangle]

im not backing down

im going back in 1 kill away

[plucky tangle]

[hazy veldt]

75-85k for c4 thor

[plucky tangle]

bro how many more of these do i gotta do

[vital oasis]

is this a bug?

[sullen vault]

Welcome to the mf PARTYYY

I got like 3 hours waisted tn alone, allday was mint tho

[pure compass]

if it still says youre able to press back to lobby after like 7+ mins of waiting i usually back out bc its bugged or sumn

[pure compass]

i think it is i was stuck like that for a couple mins loading on shoreline nd i just restarted my game nd loaded up

[wispy coyote]

i just alt f4 and i was fine

[pure compass]

yea you can do that as well

[vital oasis]

yeah i got into raid super late haha

GOD I LOVE TARKOV

died to a silent nade

from a scav running

[sullen vault]

Well your lucky

[grizzled isle]

huh?

pretty sure ive had this game for atleast 4 years

[vital oasis]

what were you trying to do lol

[vital oasis]

ah

[raven quarry]

are you below lvl 20?

[grizzled isle]

i aint played the game since wipe so yea

but i shouldnt have less than 6 months

or rather, i shouldnt be "new" to tarkov

[raven quarry]

yea no classic bsg

[glacial sorrel]

can anyone help me with reshala for a task im relativly nwq and dont know customs very well

[lofty arch]

i need some help where do i find flash drives i went 20 raids looted filing cabinets and found nothing

[deft talon]

how do i access the weapon rack stash?

ah, is this bugged too? nice

should have a "transfer items" here right?

[robust light]

did you just make it? restart the game if so

[robust light]

sometimes safes can have them, i would find them in the factory safe what felt like alot

[valid anchor]

im fucking pissed as hell right now, because I got the connectiong glitch I lost 7 whole ass minutes in a raid, found some crazy loot but on my way to extract I wasn’t able to make it because I ran out of time. Legitimately pissed as hell rn, how can I stop that shit from happening? if not then I guess fuck this game.

would have made it out of a scav raid with like 2.3 million worth of gear and stuff

is there anything I can do to prevent it from just locking me out of a raid? or am I kinda just fucked and its another glitch that just happens

[deft talon]

turn off hideout preload and restart the game after visiting hideout

other than that, nothing for now, they'll fix it eventually

[valid anchor]

alr

guess I am just screwed until it’s fixed

I know there is no way to get any of that shit back too

so sad

my stash needed it

it ain’t looking the same as it used to

[median niche]

is there a map for streets specifically for ledx spawns?

or generally what should I check? I usually go lexos, not sure where else but I've hard somewhere in concordia can spawn too

[raven quarry]

look for med spawns on any map

[lusty raptor]

are they patching the 100% loot pools

[raven quarry]

nah mate in the game forever

[willow shore]

anyone know the best way to do revisions on lighthouse cause im a bear and get clapped instantly

[inner flume]

Go at night, rogues have reduced vision between 9pm-5am iirc

[woeful spruce]

Check all med spawns, every medbag and medcrate can have a ledx, so the 3 farmacies, the kitchen of the school, the doctors office are all good to loot. I found a ledx in one of the shool medbags recently.

[median niche]

ah okay thought its just loose loot spawn

[final lake]

i can loot that right

[willow shore]

wait thats genius ok tyty!!!

[woeful spruce]

He probably blew that claymore up so if you lay down and loot him from as far as possible you should be good

[woeful spruce]

As a bear theres a bunch of ways to do it. Theres many guides on youtube on doing that but baisically you juat need a gun capable of long range shots and as long as you take out the 3 inward facing corner gunners from building 1 and 2 you can do mark the stuff no problem usually

And as bear under no circumstances dont take the main road. You gotta aproach from the east

[frosty sphinx]

does it matter if you’re bear or usec?

[woeful spruce]

Yea, if youre usec that hasnt atacked the rogues in the last 3 raids you can just stroll thorough their camp and they will ignore you unless you get within like 10m of one. You can just casually walk in and mark whatever you need. Us bears gotta fight our way in

[arctic whale]

how do i fix game aborted / lost connection when loading into raid

[raven quarry]

??bug

[carmine lantern]

See here if you are having Loading Loot issues -> #eft-chat message

[woeful spruce]

I think entirely plausible but would have to be a really dedicated player

Depends if the death was sus

[arctic whale]

15h/day gamer

bro how do you avarage 15h per day

for 3 months

[woeful spruce]

Account lifetime is just for how many days the account has been active this particular wipe, the counter resets with wipe but hours stay, this is probably this guys 2nd or more likely 3rd wipe

[patent pumice]

where is a good place to find that ahf1 stim

[woeful spruce]

Lighthouse, some rooms on labs, sanitar

[patent pumice]

im trying to complete collegues part 3 tho

so sanny poo isnt an option

[woeful spruce]

Oh yea, you can constantly reroll playerscav ob factory with 10 second raids as they have a chance to spawn with any stim

But lighthouse/labs is more fun and engaging

[patent pumice]

ive hit labs a bunch i have green and black and i have been SHAFTED

idk why green is worth 80 mil the key card is doo doo

i shoulda just sold mine but the game is the game

[fringe ingot]

hi guys

does the better loot comes with the level of traders ?

so, bitcoin i only will get or found in higher trader levels ?

if you get what i ask

[woeful spruce]

I have no idea what you are asking. If about selling bitcoin to traders then they always give you the same price no matter the trader lvl. Some other stuff influences the price but trader lvl doesnt. If youre asking about if at higher trader lvls you unlock better items then on lower lvls then yes. Higher traders do sell better items though some items will still be questlocked even if you have high enough lvl with the trader

[woeful spruce]

Wait i got one more interpretation of your messages, if you think that having higher trader lvls will make you find better loot in raids thats not the case. Traders dont influence loot if thats what youre asking

[slow smelt]

is there any promo codes

[woeful spruce]

Im not aware of any currently working ones. Sometimes they are given on devstreams or as twitch drops but they usually only have a set time for which they are active so i dont think theres amy active ones right now

[lethal python]

Best way to max out attention skill?

[clever ledge]

whats considered a decent K/D ?

[lethal python]

IMO depends on hours. If you have under 3k, I’d say around 5 is good.

I have 7k hours I sit right around 6.

[woeful spruce]

Noone gives a shit as kd counts both player and scav kills so you can be a heavy pvp guy whos great at the game but mostly kills players so has lower kd than a shit player that kills 15 scavs per raid

[lethal python]

2.5 kd is average for a new player imo

[woeful spruce]

Filing cabinets arent bad i think

[frosty sphinx]

bullshit

that’s so stupid

should’ve picked usec ig

[woeful spruce]

Eh, fighting rogues isnt bad. That quest isnt that hard as bear either

[frosty sphinx]

what’s the purpose of ammo preset like how can it be useful can someone give me one for 9mm?

[woeful spruce]

I mostly use them to make mixed mags like bottom half of mag is pst and top half is ap 6.3 or something along those lines

[frosty sphinx]

why not all ap???

[woeful spruce]

Saving so that you dont run out in 2 raids and have to wait for reset

[frosty sphinx]

ig i just buy it when i can tho

[woeful spruce]

I also sometimes to bottom ap63 and top pbp when i feel extra fancy

You usually only use the top half of mag anyway so its usefull for that. Some people put tracers as the last 5 rounds in their rifles to get an indication that theyvare almost out of ammo but i think thats a bit too much fiddling for me

[ruby summit]

Is Air filtering worth it ? I've looked it up online and some people say it's useless, some say it's good.

[half quest]

yes 10000% worth it.
you will see (if you dont already know) that its very easy to make money if you just do some farm-runs. this means that things that cost money but boost ur "experience" be ALWAYS worth it

unless its useless things like for a beginner crafting skill

[ruby summit]

So I should always leave it on ?

It has a 5 minute activation delay correct ?

Yeah, money is no problem, but people say that there is a cap to skill leveling in raid and so the air filtering isn't worth for most raid. (But they may be wrong, idk)

[half quest]

i personally leave it on to level hideout management skill, but you can also take it off when you stop playing

[half quest]

it levels slower percentagewise the more points you got in that raid, but its still an increase in skillpoints gained per raid

It has a 5 minute activation delay correct ?
uh... not that i know of actually? o.O @violet adder help me dad

[frosty sphinx]

how fast can an ak gl kill tagilla?????

[half quest]

instant p sure

[frosty sphinx]

i accidentally killed him last raid and had no idea till after... oops

[hollow cedar]

Know the basics of tarkov just learning the more advanced stuff need help https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/935947189740507277

[half quest]

actually its just 15 fragments.. i assume you can be really unlucky, but everytime i used a GL or impact he died instantly
granted, i only used impact/gl like 10 times total vs him

[frosty sphinx]

yea but it wasnt totally close to him

[half quest]

then RNG where the fragments land i guess

[woeful spruce]

Yea ive had some misses with the gp-25 on him that left him coughing and hurt but alive. But most of the time gls and impacts one shot him

[tender prism]

What level metabolism needs to be for elite level?

[half quest]

51

[tender prism]

okay, thanks!

[half quest]

[brittle wren]

anny tips?

[half quest]

• dehydrate yourself to 0 by drinking mayo. dehydration damage gives u pain
• break ur arm at gym on purpose by failing the gym QTE's

[frosty sphinx]

what quest?

[brittle wren]

ok thx

[half quest]

best job in the world prapor

[frosty sphinx]

not doing that shit tf

[half quest]

[frosty sphinx]

havent even done punisher part 1

[half quest]

u have EOD?

im asking because at end of punisher task you get the epsilon container. its 8 slots.

[frosty sphinx]

yes i do mb im in raid

[half quest]

no worries good luck

[frosty sphinx]

killed the whole map im him

factory is my domain

using the best gun build i’ve ever used

[half quest]

insane build i bet.. stock AK with GL

[frosty sphinx]

🤫

[half quest]

[frosty sphinx]

its good i promise

[half quest]

i believe u

[frosty sphinx]

okay so i one shot tagilla but a scav direct hit doesnt kill it

W game

[ripe trellis]

The game launcher is bugging out and it says i have to buy the game again can anyone help out

Now i cant log in

Dont worry i figured it out, my pc enabled a vpn

[dawn geyser]

a VPN allowed you to login when it said you had to buy the game again?

interesting

[woeful spruce]

Direct hits with gls are not deadly in tarkov though i think they should be doing crazy amounts of blunt damage and outright kill on unprotected chest or head hit. Human body is usually bendy and squishy enought that hits with gls are not enough to actuate the detonator but the rounds are very high energy anyway and should have more efect

[woeful spruce]

I think he means he fixed it by figuring out that his vpn got turned back on so he had to turn it off again for it to work

[dawn geyser]

Oh that makes much more sense lol

[ripe trellis]

Yeah I was already logged in from before and it said buy instead of play then i logged out and tried logging in and couldnt so realised i left the vpn on then turning it off fixed it and i could log in normally

Sorry was a bit confusing the first go around i didnt know what i was talking about to be honest

[cold crag]

can I play offline tarkov with a standard account?

[inland hinge]

dont be this guy, asks to help, asks if you are cheating because you didnt have the money to afford EOD, dont help with quests and leave your teammate, die because you went alone then your teammate dies because you werent alive to help

[inland hinge]

yes

[dawn geyser]

You can play offline non-co-op with any edition

You would have to buy the co-op expansion if you want to add that feature to play offline with friends however

[dry flint]

How rare is thermal in kiba arms store? cause I had a reaper but died to a 3 man(killed 2 of them tho)

[tardy crescent]

They're pretty rare

I've only seen a couple since they removed the reap out of the general lootpool

[dry flint]

Oh, so its just always attached to a gun like this?

[tardy crescent]

Yeah it should be

I dont think they've changed how the reap spawns

[dry flint]

I see, I dont usually open kiba. I just opened this for a LK quest and somehow got lucky(or unlucky since i got fucked by a 3man without surgery)

[placid shadow]

what would be the best map / spot to get raven / teapot / vase ?

[unreal horizon]

loot safes

[placid shadow]

are there easy ones to get to as scav ?

[unreal horizon]

not really

[native tendon]

shoreline cottages and resort admin is like 4 safes u can hit in a fast run on ur pmc

u do need keys tho, but theyre so worth it anyway

loot the cabinets at admin and the PCs, its a pretty solid loot route

[hoary seal]

new player here first wipe lvl 20. Looking to learn new maps, have tasks on maps ive played very little or not at all. Any guidance is appreciated!

[fallow sapphire]

my settings got reverted and now my vaulting keybind is set to continious and i cant change it, does anybody know how to fix it?

[glacial sorrel]

what can i do with a abandonded factory marked key

[lofty wave]

streets marked room key

[valid anchor]

reserve has a safe in the office at dome, there is one in factory in the office and Ground Zero has a bunch scattered, those are the places off the top of my head that typically I can find some good stuff

also Woods at the abandoned village with the sunken church is p good

I don’t think there is a safe there but me and a friend found 2 horses and then a Raven, I have never shoved something up my ass faster than that damn bird

right up me keester

[sharp cave]

what are some good beginner maps

or easiest to learn

[austere current]

how do you hold breath in tarkov?

[half quest]

shift

[austere current]

wait really, i dont see any differences

[tidal lagoon]

pretty sure its alt by default

[austere current]

it says LALT

what is that

left click alt?

[tidal lagoon]

the alt on the left side of ur spacebar

[austere current]

oh lol

[tidal lagoon]

some keyboards have multiple alt and shift buttons

[woeful spruce]

Ground zero is the best beginner map, its realtively easy to learn and is the only map split level wise. People below lvl 20 only meet eachother there and lvl 20+ have a separate lobby amd only play with eachother too. So on that map you will be guaranteed to not run into super geared sweats.

[autumn frigate]

anyone who knows what they're doing wanna duo?

[ember root]

any tips for setup?

the mission*

[sharp cave]

question. will my account get banned if i give my account to my friend so he can test if he can run the game so he can buy it to play?

[half quest]

seems legit

[plucky tangle]

12kd is funny

[half quest]

12kd is completely fine - im surprised hes such a low level though

[lofty wave]

looks legit to me unless hes a really shitty cheater

[plucky tangle]

do stats reset after wipe

[lofty wave]

could be a closet man

[lofty wave]

yes

[plucky tangle]

ok good

my stats are cooked from doing task

[upbeat elk]

Depending on how you play the game, 12kd is not that crazy.

Remember that it also takes into account scav kills

Avoid pvp and play maps with tons of scavs = easy high kd

[lean sparrow]

so ive played 3 raids, died once, killed 1 pmc and 1 scav and looted both
i have waaay too much stuff and have no room for more (stash)
what do i do?
sell some of it?

[flat tree]

Ya start prioritizing items to keep or sell

[tough widget]

is the game aborted issue fixed yet? scared of losing PMC gear

[plain ermine]

camp dorms with piranha rounds and spray and pray

[plain ermine]

pretty sure #eft-announcements

lost a two kits to that shit lastnight just spawned into raid dead

pretty fire

[undone drum]

Sell all stuff you can buy again from traders

[plain ermine]

just figure out what’s good and what’s bad sell whatever you don’t need put stuff in backpacks and tax rigs to free more space get a can junk box from therapist if you have 1.1mil

[soft kelp]

Can anyone tell me what this means?

[pure compass]

power needs to be on and you need a key

that looks like interchange extracts?

i take it back you need a keycard that youre able to craft with intel lvl 2 and theres a place in burgerking you can swipe it

[unreal horizon]

It's a leftover feature that didn't go anywhere, dw about it

[soft kelp]

Thank you both!

[hollow zealot]

Can someone help me learn light house

Just got the game

4 days ago

Pls

[austere hound]

Best choice is just to not play Lighthouse

[hollow zealot]

Ik

Ive been playing that and streets

Streets good

I got over a mil

[lofty ibex]

i don't know lighthouse but we could team up

[hollow zealot]

L

K

Pm me

[lusty raptor]

come in super kitted, lie down for 7 minutes, get up, instantly head eyed by a white name hacker

i hope hackers get cancer and die

[hot plinth]

if you are NEW and want help learning the game and maps Dm me

[weary quartz]

Should I use hp 5.45x39 bullet or sp or gs

[tidal lagoon]

look at the stats and decide for urself, u can see damage and penetration by inspecting the ammo

u generally want penetration over damage

[weary quartz]

Are there any ammo that I absolutely should not use or are they all usable

[tidal lagoon]

early game u have very limited options it really just depends on the caliber

but like most ammos will be fine to use since ure so limited

but like u absolutely shouldnt use a lower pen ammo when u have access to higher pen ammo unless you are doing leg meta

[wise flax]

how strict is the name bans? liek if i have a really offensive name how likely wil i get banned

[river rampart]

Well what is it?

you can dm if you want

[wise flax]

its just 9/11 was t sided

[river rampart]

probably a ban

[wise flax]

on steam i got it removed so just wondering

[austere current]

does crafted items count as FIR?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[merry berry]

did they move the sorting table button?

[tidal lagoon]

yes its at the top now

[merry berry]

what where

[tidal lagoon]

above the weapon crate

[merry berry]

oh what the hell its there

thanks

[small jungle]

What am I to do when I keep getting 1 tapped every raid, swear I’ll just get looted up n everything is fine n then my friend will be standing still looking at map in open and I’m still chosen to die

[tidal lagoon]

keep playing, u will learn map flow and stuff like that over time so u will know when to expect people and where u can safely chill and not

[small jungle]

I just don’t get it bc like I said im moving or in cover etc and my friend isn’t but he usually doesn’t get shot

On customs and at gas station n he’s middle of the damn road n im off to the side n I die lol

[tidal lagoon]

if u have clipping software u should try to get some clips of that stuff and post it cuz its very hard to give advice without seeing

[unreal horizon]

as someone who snipes a lot this isnt particularly surprising

you always take out the more difficult target first

[small jungle]

And is there even a point to helmets before like good gear or what cuz I swear even with helm I just die instantly every time anyways

[unreal horizon]

its probably worth against people with smaller calibers

[tidal lagoon]

u prolly have a shit helmet that will only really be useful against scavs and new players

and this wipe its super e asy to hit headshots so high chance helmet wont help cuz u will get mowed down in ur face

[unreal horizon]

but i snipe with 308/54r all day and im gonna be honest, helmets never save people im shooting at

like its astonishingly rare for my shots to get bounced

[shut turret]

Anyone wanna teach me ground zero? First ever wipe all my lvl 1 tasks are there

[small jungle]

Also why do ppl say woods is good for new players I swear I get harassed the most on there lol

I haven’t made it out once on there but factory feels easy

[unreal horizon]

This late in wipe it's pretty much a given that someone in your woods/shoreline/lighthouse raid has a thermal

[shut turret]

Because when you do a Google search the first result says do wood's to avoid pvp and loot

I just looked at it a minute ago

[small jungle]

I ain’t avoiding pvp clearly lol

[unreal horizon]

If there's a competent sniper in your lobby there's not a lot you can do

It's a really oppressive playstyle

[tidal lagoon]

its easier to avoid people on woods than most other maps but still a decent chance ure gonna find someone this tiem around

[timid rover]

anyone know the best way to do directors office?

[unreal horizon]

Like beyond walking to it and opening the door?

[timid rover]

no getting to it without getting killed

[unreal horizon]

Just take it slow and stick to the edges of the map, walk dont run, etc

[timid rover]

okay thanks

[unreal horizon]

gl

[timid rover]

is the ump 45 any good?

I only have laser match unlocked rn tho

[unreal horizon]

Yeah it's a great low lvl option

Even with bad ammo it's a beam and easy to hit headshots

[glad prawn]

trash gun but its good for low levels

[small jungle]

Are there other decent beginner weapons bc I’ve kinda just been free ballin it on whatever I get. Most times like the aks and mosin etc

[timid rover]

i know if you can buy 5.45x39 you can buy US gs or sometimes better ammo off fence, but unless you have flea there is no better options, apart from maybe the aug or m4.

[glad prawn]

ur only real option is buying a kedr/ppsh and leg metaing or aiming for everyones heads with literally any other gun cause you cant pen armor

if you get your hands on an rfb or vepr hunter you might be able to get bcp fmj off fence which isnt awful

svd with t46/lps but good luck getting an svd sub level 15

[merry berry]

vityaz is cheap easy to use

[brazen swift]

is it worth to build the scav case in hideout?

and if i do do i get to choose what the scav will look for?

[bold kernel]

just bought Beta container from peacekeeper, do i just discard this shit now or do i need it for something?

[edgy plover]

Discard or keep money it it or keep it full of lube

[midnight barn]

someone above lvl 15 can help me with customs directors office quest?

[west thicket]

why is valday worth so much less than vudu if theyre the same zoom

[dusk steppe]

anyone have any good tips for a noob timmy other than "play more" or "find friends"?

[unreal horizon]

they aren't the same zoom, but also reticle preference, and some differences in eye relief

[austere hound]

Pay attention to LOS breaks on maps and make use of them. Try learning 1-2 maps at a time. Save clips of your deaths to try to learn from your mistakes/what other options you had

[ornate echo]

is there like some kind of tutorial or training mode ?

[small jungle]

What is leg metaing? Is that literally just blasting people only in the toes?

[dusk steppe]

gotcha, ty

[unreal horizon]

yeah, using a high dmg round and shooting knees

[small jungle]

That kills or just makes it easier?

[unreal horizon]

it kills them

[west thicket]

wdym not the same? i thought they were both 1-6

[tidal lagoon]

the 6xs are more like 12x apparently

[unreal horizon]

theyre advertised as 1x6 but there's a spreadsheet with all the scopes actual zooms and theyre different, ill try to find it for you :)

[austere hound]

High damage rounds have low pen and vice versa. Since legs can't be armored in this game, you can always take flesh rounds and blast people's legs out instead. Just doesn't work if they're holding angles and such. Gotta play around it

[tidal lagoon]

https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fc223kc46d5rc1.png

[undone drum]

the reticle is way more pleasant on the expensive one

[austere hound]

Apparently is the key word there. I don't really buy it. My guess is whatever they say it is varies with your fov

[small jungle]

What fov should I be running? I just kicked it up to the max but I heard it changes how guns work

[undone drum]

What are you struggling with?

[tidal lagoon]

yea doesnt really bother me tbh more zoom only helps

[unreal horizon]

fov shouldnt make a difference while you're ads'd

[west thicket]

oh okay thank you

[tidal lagoon]

it messed with like scopes and shit but with the recoil i dont think it should really be a problem anymore

[unreal horizon]

preference, but for reference 59 is 90, and ik a lot of people like 63 which is prob 105-110?

[tidal lagoon]

i play max fov quite fine

[austere hound]

Depends. If you're having issues spotting people, low fov is better.

[small jungle]

I felt like I couldn’t really spot people that well on the lowest either so ig I gotta tweak it later

[opaque vortex]

If i secure the bag paying for it and i start looting and i drop It and no One find It , It Will come back with all the loot or full empty?

[unreal horizon]

empty

doesnt make sense but it would be super exploitable if that was the case

[tidal lagoon]

not a single person would extract with their bag

[unreal horizon]

like people could just loot and then toss the bag out of bounds

[austere hound]

The bag stacking meta would come alive

[unreal horizon]

would be a silly little event or something

[tidal lagoon]

just need them to add blackjack and three card poker to tarkov man fuck man

u could not get me off the game if they added that

[unreal horizon]

i wanna bet my whole stash on uno

or like rock paper scissors or something stupid

shit adding an animation for rock paper scissors could go crazy

[safe elk]

With 7-0 rules or no?

[unreal horizon]

uno rules are subjective

[edgy plover]

As if an insurance company would give you any more than you paid for

If that

[unreal horizon]

common insurance L

[tidal lagoon]

yea man this prapor guy barely give me shit as it is

[ornate echo]

how do i extract

[unreal horizon]

double tap O to see which exits are available, then use a map from the wiki/mapgenie to find out where you are and where you need to go

while you're learning feel free to screenshot where you are ingame and we can circle it on a map for you

[ornate echo]

based profile picture

[ornate echo]

thanks very much

this game is insanely in depth... like way more than i was expecting

[unreal horizon]

yeah its a lot to take in

[ornate echo]

i played as scav my first game just to get kinda comfortable and ended up killing 3 other scavs before getting blasted in the face by a double barrel

[unreal horizon]

that is a suboptimal ending

[austere hound]

He's right. Based pfp

Cotton is a g

[undone drum]

wanna know how to distinguish PMCs from other scavs?

never heard of it

[glass basin]

how do we get someone to help us learn the game with the voice channels

[ornate echo]

i know there is a difference in voice lines but im not really sure how to do the voice commands

what i really need help with is optimizing the graphics to my outdated pc

im trying not to comprimise too too much

because i know this game is like really pretty

[unreal horizon]

honestly, if you're looking at them and not dead yet its like a 95% chance its just a scav

[ornate echo]

yeah they didnt really seem to put up much of a fight

i think i scared the shit out of them when i started shooting

[undone drum]

scavs don´t have pistol holsters

but i usually hail them with F1 voice line and wait for them to do it back

if the voice me "i am a scav" i demand a F1 voice line

[dark trail]

i return fire if anybody requests me to press f1

[undone drum]

good

[dark trail]

This is when i am pretending to be a scav

[undone drum]

i am glad it works what i suggest

[ornate echo]

im just gonna get a soundboard with scav voicelines and use that lmao

[undone drum]

i tried that, but other ppl told me, you can hear, there is something wrong with it

i had better luck learning the voice lines well and speak them myself

[ornate echo]

before i can even get to the point where im faking voice lines i need to fucking figure out how to navigate the menus smoothly

[small jungle]

How come I can’t put certain bags in other bags even tho they seem to have enough space to hold

[dark trail]

Limits

[inner flume]

that's bannable btw

[hazy veldt]

depends on which bags.

some you can't stack on you, but can stack via sorting table/inventory.

t20's and pilgrims f.ex.

[violet void]

easiest ban of BSGs life

[river rampart]

[finite sinew]

why there are blue laser and red laser? what is the difference?

[inner flume]

taste

[raven quarry]

one is blue one is red, nothing more than visuals

[opaque parrot]

man how do yall get better at thinking strategically in the middle of a fight? I feel like whenever I'm Inna fight i forget to do even the basic things tonincrease my survival

[inner flume]

Soundboards are bannable

[graceful rock]

where did they move sorting table to

[mint light]

top of stash

if u play anything besides native resolution u wont see it. it can also just bug out and disappear without doing that

[graceful rock]

restarted, verified files, changed to tons of different res

its just not there

WINDOWED WORKED

[violet void]

when you lose a fight, think maybe why you lost. what you could of done. all that bullshit that gets parroted here is true

[plush pagoda]

how do i chec kmy sevrer?

[honest hatch]

does this guy look geared?

[plucky tangle]

why the fuck did this ai scav wave at me multiple times like its friendly then shoot me in the back as im running away

no boss nearby

💀 i was scav also

bro betrayed me

[pastel oar]

boss guard

your under 6 rep

[plucky tangle]

bro waved at me multiple times 😭

only shot me when i turned around

[edgy plover]

The waves were a warning

He was trying to wave you off

[manic sky]

anybody down to help with quests ?

[plucky tangle]

is it actually

[manic sky]

yes they start waving at you and doing voicelines if the boss is nearby

when the boss moves around and gets closer they will shoot you if you stay around

[plucky tangle]

i wasnt even near the mall

[lone junco]

i dont know why but i still get stuck at deploying in :/

[shell sundial]

Basmach is a Kaban guard, were you near Lexos

[soft tapir]

why cant i put stuff in the thicc case

[topaz bluff]

skill issue

[soft tapir]

headsets, bag, armour plates

nothing goes in

whats allowed in it

oh bruh

i thouht i just wasted millions lmao

oh

well TIL

i didnt know there were two types of thicc cases

gonna take a while

me rn

i cant really do streets

im fine with it as a scav

but not as a PMC

i wish i could say the same lol

[austere current]

best way to do tarkov shooter part 3?

[timber bay]

I'm having issues learning streets, I always have no idea where i am or where to go, big issues trying to navigate it. any advice ??

[austere current]

get a 3d map

took me a week to learn it

[soft tapir]

gz if you are 21 and below

you just need to be good at tracking

gonna take you 4 or 5 raids at most

just rush and sit there

[tame shard]

shoot people

[silver sequoia]

Does tarkov email support work on weekends

[soft tapir]

whats the easiest way to grind 80k xp

[austere current]

task 😄

[undone girder]

streets

or night factory tagilla farm

[austere current]

do people really run NVG at night? i feel like, is so easy to spot people with NVG

[undone girder]

not on streets

[austere current]

i saw green dots but wasn't sure enough and it turn out to be a player lol

[soft tapir]

shit i cant run streets

[undone girder]

do either night factory and farm tagilla or run tasks then

easiest way to get xp

[austere current]

dorm 203 is so pain in the ass fck

[undone girder]

you need help?

[austere current]

yeah pls

i did 5 run already and died trying to extract

i got keys for 203 dorm task

[undone girder]

check dm

[honest mica]

i need help

my stash faull

and ion know what to sell

[soft tapir]

buy stash expansion

but on a serious note, i personally sell gun attachments that can be bought from traders or flea. cheaper armour/armoured rigs.

idk what your stash is like but thats what i do

most of the time this clears up half the stash

[unkempt egret]

Sell everything you can buy from traders like magazines and such

[ornate echo]

hey what are the recommended specs for running this game

[tardy pebble]

what u got

[ornate echo]

i have a 1070

its pretty outdated

[tardy pebble]

cpu heavy game

[ornate echo]

also an i5

[tardy pebble]

1070 has like what, 8gb vram, you should be fine

[tardy pebble]

what gen

[ornate echo]

let me see if i can check i kinda forget

[tardy pebble]

i played on a 10400F and it was fine on most maps, streets struggled kinda bad to

[ornate echo]

dude yeah streets of tarkov is pretty rough

[tardy pebble]

settings - system - about

[ornate echo]

ive been trying to optimize the settings

[tardy pebble]

Klemintime has great videos on settings

[ornate echo]

Intel Core i5-9600K CPU

[lofty wave]

not horrible

[tardy pebble]

prolly will struggle on streets but otherwise fine

[lofty wave]

everything outside streets is possible

[ornate echo]

yeah it was like really good for when i built it

[tardy pebble]

as long as ur not on streets with a scope ur fine

[ornate echo]

lmfao that was literally how my first game went

on streets, with a sniper rifle

[tardy pebble]

stutters are crazy

[ornate echo]

yeah my frame rate was pretty rough

it was at like a steady 30 to 40 frames

i actually managed to kill 3 scavs though

[tender prism]

How should i store my scopes?

[lofty wave]

weapon case or thicc weapons case

[tender prism]

aight thanks!

[small jungle]

how many scav cases do ppl normally have

[half quest]

2-3

[lusty raptor]

What servers have least amount of cheaters?

[unreal horizon]

Prob like na central

[tawny mesa]

russian east

[dark trail]

Real

[tawny mesa]

only server i play on and i barely meet hackers except on labs now and then

[austere hound]

Can confirm NAC is low for cheaters

[unreal horizon]

It's far enough inland that most ppl can't connect from outside na which helps

[orchid isle]

every intel cpu struggles thats not a newer gen i9s

[dry flint]

cries in I5

[orchid isle]

I mean idk it should run pretty good if it’s newer ones except streets

[dry flint]

too late, my feelings are hurt 😦

[orchid isle]

This game seems to be really bad for 12700k specifically

I have one and it gets no frames

Same w every other person who has the cpu

[dry flint]

Ya tbh, I am thinking of just either selling my current system or giving it to my family so I can switch to a 5700x3d

[orchid isle]

That’s a good one, just a 5800x3d that didn’t meet the consistency cut off

[dry flint]

Kinda sucks I didnt have Am4 at the start. Fucking covid emptied out all the PC stocks when I built my PC. I had to settle with i5

[orchid isle]

Haha yea that sucks

I picked up my 12700k over Covid too, cus am5 wasn’t a thing back then

[dry flint]

I am still debating on whether I should get a 5700x3d or a new 7600 system tho, will still keep my current GPU for now

[proud thicket]

Hello, my alpha pouch is no where? i dont think i have discarded it, but i cant find it. ive tried to restart my game and my pc?

[tidal lagoon]

if u dont see it listed when clicking the Pouch button its kinda gg i think

[proud thicket]

is there anyway i can get it back? or do i have to reset my acc
?

[tawny mesa]

you can buy one from peacekeeper

[tidal lagoon]

i doubt support will help you with the issue, you can buy it or reset

i dont recommend resetting unless u like just started tho

[proud thicket]

yeahh might do that

cba resetting my account

[proud thicket]

no im lvl 30, imma js get peacekeeper lvl 3 and buy beta container

allthough my docs case and some keys are gone 😭

[tidal lagoon]

yea definitely do that

[proud thicket]

welp 😭

[tidal lagoon]

how are u on punisher questline?

with prapor

punisher 6 gives you epsilon container 2x4

[dry flint]

alt f4 and relaunch the game. Theres a common bug with items dissapearing with the item preset

[proud thicket]

ive done it already, i think ive accidentally discarded it when i was watching yt 😭

[dry flint]

bruh

[stray scroll]

what sight is this?

[unkempt egret]

Fastfire

[proud thicket]

yeahh, shit happends LOL

[stray scroll]

tnx

[unkempt egret]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Burris_FastFire_3_reflex_sight needs a connecting piece but it's available from Peacekeeper 1

[dry flint]

that sight was my favorite at the start of wipe, it was cheap for some reason. but now the price is expensive

[unkempt egret]

it's about 20k roubles iirc so not too bad, kinda like it more than some of the "meta" sights like the HCO

[small spoke]

is the mp7 good, recoil feels nice but ammo isnt good

[dry flint]

its not that great till you get mechanic lvl 4 for FMJ FX

once you get it, its one of the best gun and ammo combo

[unkempt egret]

You'll want to use FMJ, MP7 has been one of the meta weapons for the past seven or so wipes. Mags can get expensive without trader acess tho.

The ammo by itself isn't particulary impressive but you have to remember the weapon it goes into is a laser beam with 950RPM that can take 40 round mags.

[dry flint]

call me stingy or cheap, but 20k for a 1x sight is too much for me

and I already have LK unlocked

[unreal horizon]

[steady falcon]

any1 have sheets for thing i should take or not take for mission and hideout?

[unreal horizon]

tarkov tracker

[serene orbit]

whats better this wipe im way late bear or usec

[half quest]

bear has the issue with lighthouse but better drip

[tidal lagoon]

u can just shoot the rogues tho so its not that much of an issue

[serene orbit]

lmao im think ima be drippy

when my game is done downloading would someone wanna help me do task

[orchid isle]

if hes a newbie then usec!!!

[tidal lagoon]

!!!

[alpine gulch]

With presets, is there a way to equip a preset without it changing what's in my secure container?

[half quest]

dont think so - u could unequip it and save it like that maybe and then just have to re-equip the container

[alpine gulch]

Yeah, alright. Thank you

[short lodge]

[tidal lagoon]

tf do u use then

[near cedar]

guys what is good to carry on epsilon container?

im current with doc case + injector + CMS

[undone drum]

ammo, expensive meds

[near cedar]

3 slots left

[undone drum]

ammo

[near cedar]

all ammo?

[undone drum]

one stack

[half quest]

1afak or 2afak and 1 or 2 stacks ammo

[undone drum]

of expenisve ammo

[near cedar]

wich healer kit is most cost benefit to get?

i saw a bunch o ppl carrying salewas

[tidal lagoon]

mainly grizzlies or salewas

with calok on the side

[half quest]

u can also run grizzly docs ammo+ammo/injector and cms in backpack/rig

[undone drum]

i would bring 1 calok and 1 car first aid kit into rig to threat lightbleed, heavy bleed and heal in one button

[half quest]

but its a hassle to always bring cms

[unkempt egret]

Starter gear will all be expended in about a week so don't worry too much about the differences between the two. The only real diferences are USEC get a free pass from the rogues on lighthouse (revoked when shooting at them for the next three raids) and alegedly the BTR on Streets/woods is cheaper for BEAR. If you are starting out this late in the wipe I would pick either since you won't need to go to lighthouse for a while after starting out, arguably I'd put it off untill next wipe and learn other maps this wipe.

[nimble junco]

help i tried joing a factory night raid with a bunch of loot but it keep saying connection lsot and i cant join back

[unkempt egret]

As for container i'd put in a CMS + alu splint or Surv kit depending on preference, two stacks of ammo, a docs or sicc case and an injector case (filled to the RIM with propital no I'm not an addict shut up). Swap out CMS/Alu and depleted stacks of ammo first for valuable loot.

[hazy veldt]

7800x3d would be best, but I think it's not as important if you have a normal 1440p or 1080p screen.
Only really critical for 4k+

imho used am4+5X00x3D is best 'budget' option for tarkov, but am5+7800x3d would be best and you'll probably only lose 100-150$ when you sell it for an 9800x3d upgrade, next year'ish.

[astral glen]

If you aren't already on AM4 it's not worth getting a new motherboard and 5800x3D, just get AM5 or save until you can

But if you are already on AM4 like upgrading from 3000 or 5000 Ryzen, a 5800x3D is really great value

[bold kernel]

anyone wanna help with Customs? need to do Background check, Aquarius pt1 and Pharmacist

[pseudo walrus]

You should start with your ground zero tasks

[ornate echo]

how do i extract ?? i went into the basement area and nothing happened. do i need a key or something ?

[inner sinew]

You need the extract, go all the way to the end of the basement

Just because it’s green doesn’t mean you have it as an extract

[ornate echo]

im all the way down here but i cant do anything

[tawny mesa]

do you have the extract

[woeful spruce]

Double tap "o" and if you dont have it on tge extract list its not your extract

[spice whale]

can someone teach me how to play?

[grim needle]

i was wondering if anyone can help me learn how to play

[inner flume]

Depending how new you guys are i recommend starting by watching a youtube video, i personally like the JesseKazam beginner guide, if you're looking for partner to play with to start you can head to https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/541976915272007681

[meager flint]

Where do I find awl?

[glad prawn]

any mechanical spawns/crates/toolboxes

[meager flint]

Ok thanks

What abt tape measure same thing

[glad prawn]

same thing

you can use wiki and all that

[meager flint]

Ok thanks

[dreamy goblet]

Pestily has a few 1hr+ long vids of the maps inside & out & where the extracts are along with top tier loot

[ashen schooner]

is night factoryeasier to get farming pt 1 done

[meager flint]

Kk

[placid dawn]

what map should i play?

as like a first

[glad prawn]

just go day with the item in ur secure container

[tawny mesa]

i recommend woods because you can kinda choose how much action you want and i think the pvp is way better on it

decent loot as well

[placid dawn]

i don't know any of the maps or where to go so

yeah thanks ig ill take that

[rancid tapir]

you can use a map like map genie to help you get around

[tawny mesa]

takes a while to learn but in the beginning you can kinda pinpoint where you are based on what side of the mountain or lake you are on

[placid dawn]

is this not an extraction point? i have 0 clue where i am

[proud thicket]

is there anyway i can fix this issue?

[inner flume]

yeah thats an extract point but it doesnt mean you have it available to use yourself

[placid dawn]

yeah i know but like where am i rn

might be able to figure out where to go from there

[tidal lagoon]

you are at RUAF gate

bottom right of the big ocean

[tawny mesa]

here mate

[placid dawn]

factory gate?

[tawny mesa]

close

[hazy veldt]

factory gate is close, but factory gate is coop extract, you can only take it with a scav

[placid dawn]

ah its like down the road

alright

[tidal lagoon]

not really down the road

[hazy veldt]

realistically, you need to go to outskirts most likely.

[tidal lagoon]

other side of the ocean

[placid dawn]

outskirts? alr

[tidal lagoon]

yea

[placid dawn]

so i just run the lake till i get there? thanks!!

[tidal lagoon]

coop aint happening

yes jsut be mindful of people sniping it its very open

[slate dust]

Careful, lake is kinda a pvp hotspot

[tawny mesa]

to extract at favtory gate you need to extract alongside with a scav

[placid dawn]

yeah ik i got like 2 peeps

[slate dust]

You gotta go thru sawmill too

[placid dawn]

snuck up on me

[proud thicket]

... the times ive been sniped on my way to outskirts...

[tawny mesa]

my advice is stick alongside the shore

[slate dust]

I've never been sniped at outskirts only cabin

[tawny mesa]

ive been sniped from ruaf roadblock while im looting dead mans place...

[placid dawn]

PMC drip

[tawny mesa]

yessir

[placid dawn]

i got lucky

2 scavs? i think ran up on me

i saw a player, let him be (he didnt see me surprisingly)

[tawny mesa]

woods is nice because you can choose whether you wanna take a fight or not

[placid dawn]

yeah i saw that

well there's a minefield here. that's not fun

[tawny mesa]

are you at the other side of the lake?

[placid dawn]

ah yeah no i got scrwed

GG

well 2nd time's the charm right?

im definitely not taking that path anymore

atleast i got 2 scavs

🤷

[tawny mesa]

in my experience 90% of the time i get outskirts, its all about finding the right way for you

[placid dawn]

well i tried to pass a minefield, my fault

and then i got shot + stepped on a mine

thought the path would atleast be safe but i guess not

[topaz bluff]

task manager close the game and relunch if no one gave u anything helpful

[tawny mesa]

did you follow the shoreline?

[placid dawn]

ypu

i got hit by a mine there too

[tawny mesa]

then you were basically right at the extract

[placid dawn]

then i died :D

but its fine, its a bit of a learning curve. just gotta get used to it right

[tawny mesa]

as you can see just go right as soon as you see those signs and you are at the extract

[proud thicket]

it dosent work, ive tried closing the game launcher through task manager and the game through task manager too, i gotta restart my pc for it to launch

[placid dawn]

i passed the boat then died by a mine

cuz minefield is legit right there

[tawny mesa]

huh?

there should be no mines at the boat

[placid dawn]

might've went the wrong way but i passed the boat i think? then next to the shore is a minefield

atleast where i was

[merry berry]

U ran too far into the extract area?

[placid dawn]

maybe, dunno

[merry berry]

There's a car that is easy to see where outskirts is

[tawny mesa]

oh well, just know that when you see those signs just take a right next time

[merry berry]

Pickup truck

[placid dawn]

alright thanks

is running factory a bad idea

[merry berry]

There's a weather station thingy that u probably passed on ur right,

[placid dawn]

i dont think i've seen that

[placid dawn]

^

[merry berry]

It would've been on ur right after passing the boat.

Shit might as well turn when u hit the boat.

[merry berry]

And yes unless u got quests there

[placid dawn]

also what are scav runs? is it just free random loot (if you extract)?

[tawny mesa]

yes, it is very cramped and a ton of scavs

[placid dawn]

how does it work exactly

[merry berry]

Spawn in mid raid with a random load out . U loot and extract the same

[placid dawn]

ah alright

[merry berry]

It's just a free random load out

[placid dawn]

okay any place that DOESNT have a minefield?

that i could run

[merry berry]

Go do ur quests

[tawny mesa]

you essentially spawn in with a random kit and other playerscavs and ai scavs are your friends, you go loot as normal and then extract, you have different extracts though and once you have extracted you get to choose what to sell instantly and what to transer into your stash

[placid dawn]

guys i died once i can't afford anything else

no but for real is it worth trying a minimalist raid

[merry berry]

Then go scav

[placid dawn]

snowballing

[tawny mesa]

look at this map, only minefields are the outside of the map and at the top left at usec camp. i would recommend running village which is at the car extract top right

the red areas are minefields

[merry berry]

No cause getting onetapped by buckshots bad

At least t2 armor

[placid dawn]

yeah i may have went a bit further

on accident then

[tawny mesa]

i would recommend scavs

[merry berry]

If ur dirt poor scav more

[tawny mesa]

essentially risk free loot

[placid dawn]

you dont start with helmets ^^

[merry berry]

Market is the best way to not be poor so I'd rush that

[tawny mesa]

put some heals in your pouch

[unreal horizon]

Helmets are generally trash dw about it

[tawny mesa]

like a cms kit and some painkiller

[proud thicket]
