[carmine garnet]

[mint light]

[upbeat elk]

[tidal lagoon]

[mint light]

[vast fable]

which dorm is 205

[tidal lagoon]

3 story

[upbeat elk]

where

[vast fable]

bruatha

[inner flume]

Well in all fairness you dont need all details of a place memorized, having a vague idea of the area and an okay idea of where you head something will give you enough information to try and make some movement, throw a grenade to flush them out or at least get them to do more sound so you can pinpoint them

[tidal lagoon]

im being trolled

[vast fable]

im not trying to troll

which dorm

[upbeat elk]

no

[tidal lagoon]

3 story

[upbeat elk]

Which door does 205 dorms open

[vast fable]

soary

[upbeat elk]

yes but what door

[tidal lagoon]

waht u mean door 205 is always open

[upbeat elk]

but what door

[carmine garnet]

Yeah I'm slowly understanding this, especially when trying to understand where PMC's spawn in the beginning. That's been a huge breakthrough for me.

[tidal lagoon]

what

it gives u machinery key

which opens driver door of a fuel truck

[upbeat elk]

oh but what door does dorm room 204 key open?

[tidal lagoon]

@bold kernel ban this guy

[vast fable]

mf i died not even 10 minutes in the raid

[inner flume]

Anytime you spawn if you've played a map a handful of time, you can have a vague know of where they might be by just going "i think i spawned at that mountain there once, might be someone" and thats enough info to get you started, and after 3-5 minutes in a raid people moved enough already that their spawns dont matter that much

[upbeat elk]

Wow beginners chat always toxic

[vast fable]

i died to the most decked out man known to existance what the actual fuck

[tidal lagoon]

i actually thought u had lost it for a few min trak

[unreal horizon]

i cant begin to express how common this is

[vast fable]

he mortared my position

[tidal lagoon]

thats fine, thats like 60% of raids at least

[vast fable]

his name was escape from canada 😭

[upbeat elk]

but what door

[tidal lagoon]

das crazy

[vast fable]

IM FROM canada 💀

[upbeat elk]

[carmine garnet]

Very true....I have that mentality on interchange. Thx for being one of the non trolly ones in this chat lol. I'll try out some of ur advice today.

[mint light]

idk whos trolling

[vast fable]

💀

[tidal lagoon]

rather nice house tho

[vast fable]

yeah

[upbeat elk]

[worldly junco]

this is a floor plan of the second level of dorms on customs

[vast fable]

geo guesser

[tidal lagoon]

^

[upbeat elk]

ok but what door

[worldly junco]

brother you should find a number on the door

or beside it

[undone drum]

he is trolling again

[vast fable]

nah he just special

[inner flume]

i would recommend using like Kedr/MP5/MP9/Ump you know like the cheap low/mid range smgs, they'll help you in cqb and will make you better at hitting face at close range, and it stops you from trying to get into long range engagements

[worldly junco]

I am beginning to figure. smh my head

[vast fable]

we dont discriminate

[undone drum]

attention seeking ass

[vast fable]

real

[upbeat elk]

what number

[worldly junco]

alright

[unreal horizon]

trak take your meds

[upbeat elk]

where

[unreal horizon]

dorms

[vast fable]

dorms

[tidal lagoon]

he forgor

[upbeat elk]

oh

[worldly junco]

there is a lightkeeper quest behind the door tho so hold onto the key

[upbeat elk]

where

[vast fable]

⚰️

[worldly junco]

the quest is up your ass and to the left

[upbeat elk]

ok i will check

[vast fable]

he doesn't know where that is

what

[tidal lagoon]

might be hard to do that

[carmine garnet]

Yeah i really dig the MP5.....what is cqb?

[prisma arch]

where map do you think is best for learning pvp i know factory has the most but most people are kitted in factory

[vast fable]

please dont try 😭

[tidal lagoon]

close quarters combat

[vast fable]

wrong guy WREONG GUY

WRONG GUY

[worldly junco]

[carmine garnet]

gotcha

[vast fable]

😭

[inner flume]

Close Quarters Battle, maybe cqc is better name? not sure, i'm french

[tidal lagoon]

most people will be at least semi kitted on basically all maps at this point in wipe

and different maps do have different pvp

like factory and woods pvp is quite different

[vast fable]

i lack anything now i look like a homeless man outside of a gas station at 3 am

[worldly junco]

if you are below level 20 ground zero is a good place to learn PvP imo

[tidal lagoon]

homeless meta?

[vast fable]

rat meta?!?!

[tidal lagoon]

no! 😠

[carmine garnet]

Gotcha, thanks. I do this a lot when I need to free up stash space lol

[tidal lagoon]

statue meta

[vast fable]

same thing in my opinion

what is umusername cooking up

[tidal lagoon]

dinner

[prisma arch]

thats the issue im having im running these other maps but they are so dead ill extract with no pvp and 20 scav kills but maybe im subconciously going places i know are low traffic

[tidal lagoon]

well what maps and what places do u go to

[vast fable]

20 scav kills is 20 scav kills

[tidal lagoon]

sometimes u just need to try to chase gunshots cuz its actually just dead

[worldly junco]

is it worth it for me to do setup this late into wipe?

[tidal lagoon]

if u want kappa

[upbeat elk]

where dorm 205

[worldly junco]

I ain't got time for that. are the quest rewards after it any good?

[vast fable]

what is that

[tidal lagoon]

right infront

[prisma arch]

my mains are shoreline i run through resort to the new addition customs i stay between 1011 and crack and reserve bunker

[upbeat elk]

no number

[tidal lagoon]

🧢

[carmine garnet]

I think a lot of my issue is I focus too much on completing a task rather than getting kills.......and whats what screws me over in terms of learning i guess (shrug)

[tidal lagoon]

invisible ink

[vast fable]

i have 41 hours dude

[tidal lagoon]

oh

[worldly junco]

lmao

[upbeat elk]

does this mean 205 in russian?

[vast fable]

yes

[tidal lagoon]

i thought we were all trolling

this is kappa, biggest container u can get

[vast fable]

i can send you a picture bro

[tidal lagoon]

u get it after doing a majority of the quests in the game

[vast fable]

41 hour

[worldly junco]

kappa is a large continer

you could fit your mom in it beleive it or not

[inner flume]

I dont know what level you are, but i could recommend using ground zero to learn to push people, go in there with a kit you dont worry about and just focus on trying to get a PMC kill in the game before extracting, its good because even if people COULD have flea market gear they wont have access to much better stuff so you'll be on par

[vast fable]

do we just like stick it up our ass

[worldly junco]

correct

[tidal lagoon]

yes smile

[vast fable]

i guess no one would want your loot THAT badly

what

[worldly junco]

anyways anyone got an anwser for this question?

[tidal lagoon]

🤨

[vast fable]

clipped

[upbeat elk]

after what

[tidal lagoon]

these are the rewards for setup

[carmine garnet]

I love ground zero, probably my favorite map. I think I'll do that for good practice. ty

[prisma arch]

most quest rewwards are poo until later

[tidal lagoon]

after setup you get informed means armed

[vast fable]

i thought he was talking about like a gear kit 😭

[tidal lagoon]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Setup

[worldly junco]

I meant the rewards for the quests after setup?

[tidal lagoon]

u can check out all the quests that come after setup here

[worldly junco]

ty

[tidal lagoon]

they are nothing too crazy

[tidal lagoon]

lol

[vast fable]

what is best map for scav

please 🙏

[prisma arch]

lighthouse

[vast fable]

is this what you been cooking up for the past few minutes

[tidal lagoon]

eh kinda depends, for loot it was streets but it kinda fell off since they nerfed it

[mint light]

@unreal horizon i retired from chief keef

graduated to key glock academy

[unreal horizon]

agony

[tidal lagoon]

i normally just do woods scav cuz i can just like watch a yt video while running around cuz its dead

[vast fable]

[vast fable]

respectable

[tidal lagoon]

i mean it dont take 42 years but like if u want smt super fast some people like factory

[prisma arch]

forsure lighthouse farming rogue takes 15 mins and you can get a few guns

[vast fable]

what is this

[tidal lagoon]

nothing special, u basically just get a class based on what u have the most xp in

looting, healing, surviving or killing

[vast fable]

oh ok

im going to try lighthouse first as scav then woods

ill tel you guys know what hapens

[tidal lagoon]

[jaunty lance]

wtf is this

[bold kernel]

What's the best way to get this - AK-74 5.45x39 6L31 60-round magazine
I need it for the missions "Gunsmith Part 2" - I have everything else but this and Prapor I need to have at level 4 to buy them from him, which I am only level 1 with him.

[undone drum]

craft

lavratory 2

[undone drum]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/AK-74_5.45x39_6L31_60-round_magazine

[bold kernel]

Ah I see this, Lavatory level 2. I'll have to unlock it and level it to level 2, I have mats to make it already, but not yet unlocked lavatory. Thanks buddy 🙂

[dark trail]

So for most of the quests that say “find X item in raid” I can just craft it and turn it in?

[undone drum]

depepnds on the item. check wiki for it

[real adder]

looking for someone that knows what they are doing im new and dug myself a hole im struggling to get out of

[civic quest]

i picked mine up from a dead PMCs gun

there's also a spawn in the ZB-014 bunker on woods

not guaranteed it turns out

[orchid elm]

god damn

just finished sbih

feeling good

now i have to do psycho sniper

[undone drum]

tell, whats up?

happy to help

[elfin river]

Lvl 6 second go around last lvl was 7 before I restarted because I got screwed over by playing with randoms. Anyone looking to play by chance that’s around my level

[real adder]

i was bad from the start and blew threw all my stating gear now i cant seem to gain anything more i use scav and spend the whole game looking for exits and then never finding them lol

[undone drum]

randoms whom you met in tarkov lobby?

[elfin river]

Yeah

When you start looking for group before going Into match lol

Very bad experiences so wanted to try this before I continue loosing things but running solo mostly

[undone drum]

yeah, never use it. ppl just group up and kill ppl.
Try out this #pvp-lfg

[undone drum]

lets fix the finding extracts thing. there is an offline mode in tarkov, where you can explore risk free.
Pair it with a map from wiki:

[elfin river]

Bet thank you man glad to know I was just doing the wrong thing cause I was sad with how the community with in the game

With it already being so challenging

[west root]

Can help me with ground zero beginner tasks?

[west root]

I'm down

[tired vault]

How does one find someone to help out a new player like myself?

[undone drum]

what help do you need?

[west root]

I'm in need of assistance with the ground zero tasks

[undone drum]

do you need someone to explain, how to do them or go with you and and make them with you?

[west root]

I tried the offline mode to go round the map meanwhile having the map up but I just can't get my head around it 😂😩

[undone drum]

already tried to look simultaneously at a map on tarkov wiki?

[west root]

Yeahh

[undone drum]

how to orient on ground zero:
Read whats written on the buildings and compare it with what you see on map

[tired vault]

@undone drum Well, I just died on interchange and got fed up with being alone, but luckily I just got my first friend request by someone who saw me die as a scav, thank you tho for the reply 🙂

[west root]

Interchange is a tough map for beginners tbf

[tired vault]

Yes I realize now, but I tried offline woods.. couldnt find my bearings, so I did interchange and thought, hey exfils are easy

[undone drum]

no worries. @west root Guys just join the voice channels down below, for the map you want to go and ask politely if you can tag along.
there is one for every map and dedicated beginners voice chats

[west root]

You done ground zero tasks?

[tired vault]

A few of em yes, which ones you need?

[west root]

All of them still 😂

[tired vault]

Thanks for the info!

[west root]

Can I put roubles in my gamma pouch?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[west root]

Will they be looted or just not be used?

[tired vault]

I am on now if you wanted me to help you out with at least the grenade launcher and machine gun?

[tidal lagoon]

wdym by that, u wont lose them on death if thats what u mean

[west root]

Yeahh Idm

[west root]

Like can I still use them for the paid exfil?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[west root]

If they're in my gamma pouch even

[tired vault]

I did it today, after several tries, can confirm xD

[undone drum]

yes

[west root]

Sweet

[tired vault]

but bring extra cash if u were noob like me and killd scavs as a scav on ur first day xD

[west root]

I don't even know where that exfil is 😂

[west root]

Same, getting the rep back up tho, currently on -0.03 😂

With fence

[tired vault]

im -0.22 lmao

[west root]

Tbh I just did scavs every time I could on factory and hopefully nobody killed me, works pretty well majority of time

[tidal lagoon]

car extract will get most of it back for u

[west root]

How?

[tired vault]

Do I always need to wait a full minute for that extract?

[tidal lagoon]

extracting with the car gives scav rep starting at 0.20 scav rep for an extract then decreasing for every use after that

[west root]

Ooo nice to know

[tidal lagoon]

every map with a car extract has seperate use counters so you can get 0.2 on every map on the first use

u need to wait the full minute yes

[tired vault]

thx for the info 🙂

[tired vault]

I dm'd you btw, not sure if you got it

[undone drum]

yes

[orchid elm]

you dont have to stay in the extraction zone for a full minute though

you can take cover and come back to it before it leaves

[carmine garnet]

Any suggestions what to do about this crap? different NV, or different scope?

[inner flume]

This scope is bad for the backflare with any nvg, gotta use a different scope for night sadly, this is aids i hate it

[carmine garnet]

Ok cool, I'm new to night raids so I wasn't sure if I was just using a shitty pair of NV's or not

ty

Just make sure it's not an optical scope?

[solemn raptor]

it's an issue with the bright reticle, find something that's not as brightly lit

[carmine garnet]

Is there a way to see what the reticle looks like without buying it?

[solemn raptor]

check it on the wiki.

[carmine garnet]

I'm kind of just buying scopes and hoping lol

Ok, thank u

[solemn raptor]

@carmine garnet

@carmine garnet but... my best recommendation is to just get a night scope of course.

[orchid elm]

NSPU users rise up

[pure compass]

with nvgs on the tac30 is bright asf normally for some reason every other scope is fine

[solemn raptor]

@carmine garnet 3.5x thingy, get a reflex sight on top of it.
Bind your change sight button to your NVG button, so that you can quickly swithc between them.

[carmine garnet]

Didn't even consider the wiki would show the reticle on each scope.....this helps a lot. ty.

I'll probably end up getting night scopes when I build a new set of rifles

[pure compass]

these are pretty pricey scopes if you dont have them off traders but fs my go to for the guns i run

[solemn raptor]

might be noteworthy to add that the magnifications listed in-game are incorrect. These are the actual scope magnifications:

[pure compass]

vudu does seem more zoomed in but i did not think it was 11x goddamn

[orchid elm]

OH

So thats why the vudu felt so weird to snipe with

god damn

[unreal horizon]

vudu is amazing to snipe with

its so free

[solemn raptor]

my fav scope is the 3-12x, that this is.. pure awesome.

[orchid elm]

i think it waves around wayy too much

valday's my go-to choice for sniping

[carmine garnet]

I went with this one.....cuz ya like u said the razor is crazy expensive

[unreal horizon]

thats... an option

[carmine garnet]

mother fucker......i only has 1 zoom

ok on to try the next one.....ffs

[unreal horizon]

vudu is worth the price

[solemn raptor]

good luck with that 21x haha

[orchid elm]

the atacr though

I saw that thing on a pmc once and it was so weird

[carmine garnet]

ok so how can i tell if a scope only has 1 fixed zoom or not?

[pure compass]

tac30 isnt a bad scope just not really great with nvgs on

[orchid elm]

it tells you in the scope description

[orchid elm]

the reticle is also eh

[solemn raptor]

look at this:

[carmine garnet]

sorry, trying to understand that chart atm

[naive nymph]

When I started I didn't know scavs weren't supposed to kill scavs, so my scav rep is really really bad. How can I fix that quickly?

[unreal horizon]

no quick fix

[orchid elm]

its going to take

[solemn raptor]

names on the left, look at "actual zoom".

[orchid elm]

a while...
you can say goodbye to fence crown this wipe though

[naive nymph]

Well thats just awesome 🙁 wish I knew that before hand so I wasnt negative .38 lmao

[unreal horizon]

scav rep doesnt matter anyway

if you're new you're not getting lk

[glacial fiber]

wat does a magwell do

[carmine garnet]

perfect, thank u.......just now found where it says that information in the in game description too

[solemn raptor]

kinda pointless though as the info is incorrect

[rare quiver]

anyone tryna run a raid scav or PMC doesnt matter

[carmine garnet]

Well, I mean just in terms of telling if it only has 1 fixed zoom or two zooms

[orchid elm]

seems like a US server issue

[prisma arch]

3+

[pale hedge]

ss your surroundings and ask where you are in this chat so we can point you in the right direction

and most importantly, when your in a woodsy area, look at your close suroundings, listen for you far surroundings

i could not spot a pmc in the woods if my life depended on it so yk

either way, good luck buddy

this dude a detective

[unreal horizon]

he's too fucking funny man

[undone drum]

player scavs?

[shrewd pagoda]

no

[mint light]

spacemonkey 2.0

[unreal horizon]

real

[shrewd pagoda]

i dont get a chance to kill pmc's that are lower level, i never see them

[undone drum]

i will show you how to fight scavs. Its easy, once you know it, you can run circles around them

[unreal horizon]

can you even read

[shrewd pagoda]

tbf scavs arent really my main issue

just fighting against pmc's

[undone drum]

Do you fight PMCs on purpose, are you seeking for the fight?

Or do you just run in them?

[shrewd pagoda]

i seek to fight

but sometimes run in to them

[unreal horizon]

i mean thats just on you then

if you're questing you wanna avoid fighting

[shrewd pagoda]

only way i can get better

[undone drum]

not advisable, when you are new and low on lvl, don´t have access to good kit.
expirienced people focus on questing, to lvl up traders, then go pvp

[shrewd pagoda]

yeah i gave up after being stuck on one quest

[undone drum]

why? what quest?

[orchid elm]

you really should ask somebody for help

[shrewd pagoda]

delivery from the past, prapor

[undone drum]

tried to seek for help?

[shrewd pagoda]

ive tried before

[orchid elm]

get that lvl50 chad to open all the doors and clear everything before you

[undone drum]

playing solo wouldn´t help you really

[orchid elm]

there's probably a lot of sherpas that would be willing to help

[shrewd pagoda]

ima just wait till next wipe, i have irl things to do anyway so i wont be able to play for 1-2 months

by then wipe should happen

[unreal horizon]

hopefully but im doubtful

[undone drum]

there is a different discord called sherpa hub, where people are more willing to help out

[unreal horizon]

since they said summer and theyre notorious for leaving stuff as late as they can get away with

[undone drum]

check channel above

[young beacon]

Sherpa hub is a better place to look for help and post tickets for a Sherpa session 😉

[undone drum]

its alright then, just don´t wait for the wipe to play, if you can.
Most important thing is knowledge and this is what you can aquire, right here right now

[shrewd pagoda]

just joined it

[shrewd pagoda]

yeah i watch quite a lot of tarkov videos so i guess i gain knowledge from that

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[shrewd pagoda]

tarkov one of those games where its fun to watch but aids to play

for me

[unreal horizon]

even passively you're learning routes and stuff

[undone drum]

your lvl of knowlegde is not enough. but its allright, ask here, you will get answers

[young beacon]

Ya knowledge wins you most gunfights over pure skill

Can easily beat better aim players when you know rotations and timings

[shrewd pagoda]

and i swear i die to people with esp

some scenarios are so weird

[undone drum]

with better situational awareness and map knowledge.
If you played map 1000 times, you know about the spots, the routes where ppl go and the timings.

[unreal horizon]

tbf sometimes you do, but not as much as you think

[young beacon]

I’ve been reported countless times and they add me after saying I’m cheating, it’s just game knowledge. If I know where they will rotate to, I can get a spot that guarantees me a kill 9 times /10

That’s why we recommend focusing 1 or 2 maps at a time

To learn and get better at

Playing too many maps will start getting confusing

Scav runs are really important for new players too

[undone drum]

how do you know, if you have been reported?

[prisma glade]

Except I keep getting killed by other player scavs 😦

[shrewd pagoda]

some raids i dont even find a single pmc

when im searching for them

[undone drum]

there is a fix for that as well. where do you scav?

[undone drum]

map knowledge will help you out. every map has some profitable spots, where all ppl go.
If you don´t find any, there is always factory

[young beacon]

They add me after and message me

[shrewd pagoda]

what map is essential to learn, so far i know woods and customs

[young beacon]

Ya it happens, that’s just other new players not understanding the game

[undone drum]

but again, lvl up, learn maps, timings, go with exprienced players and then go pvp

[unreal horizon]

love how safe scav karma makes ppl feel

[undone drum]

where you have quests

[unreal horizon]

hilarious when you kill them

[shrewd pagoda]

oh

[young beacon]

Woods and customs are the 2 main early maps, after that it branches out to shoreline with PK and interchange with Rahman

Ground zero isn’t bad to learn since after level 20 the loot is better now, but you get off it pretty quick as a new player

[orchid elm]

knowing factory's layout and spawns is also great

[bold kernel]

did the event with the guys staring at u count as bosses?

the bonfire event

[orchid elm]

probably

they counted as scavs in the post-raid kill list

but they cancelled out packet loss

[bold kernel]

yeah because i am pretty sure i didnt kill any bosses

[short bay]

what map would you recommend to learn after ground zero?

i am rotating pmc ground zero, factory scav for a loong time

[wicked merlin]

woods or shoreline

[undone drum]

check sojeuu´s comment above

[short bay]

i see, thanks

[pale hedge]

it was an L raid, got dropped by a bodycamping rat

lovely ❤️

[undone drum]

for scav to aquire loot and kits easily, i suggest ligthouse - rogue camp

[short bay]

i'm bear

ah scav i get it

[young beacon]

For brand new players it’s probably Ground Zero-Customs-Woods-Shoreline/Interchange, then probably reserve/lighthouse. Streets and labs aren’t new player friendly and factory isn’t the greatest for loot, just fast pvp

[fiery spindle]

I just started playing this game. Is there a good website with pictures of extracts? I killed three pmcs in my third raid but I didn't know where to go for extracts. I was using an interactive map but didn't have anything in game to compare to

[undone drum]

tarkov wiki

[fiery spindle]

Going to outlevel the free healing before I even extract once

[fiery spindle]

I think I was using that one but I couldn't find a point of reference to know where I was

[undone drum]

ground zero?

[fiery spindle]

Yea

Is there a compass indicator or anything I didn't see one in game

[undone drum]

look at the buildings or the shields in front of them. its just like 6-7 buildings, but their names are written over them.
The map of ground zero from tarkov wiki shows the names of the buildings

!wiki ground zero

Can I use my items like guns in offline mode?

Might be best way to find my orientation

[undone drum]

yes, you can´t bring back stuff, that you find, to your stash

[undone drum]

100%

[fiery spindle]

I keep it if I die right

[undone drum]

yes

[fiery spindle]

I will try that

I managed somehow to kill solo pmc then team of two pmc then A scav

[undone drum]

good job!

[fiery spindle]

Then team of two but second guy got me. M4 you start with is pretty good

If they have dog tags they are pmc right?

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[glacial fiber]

wheres the dam hard drive ???

theres nothign there

[undone drum]

google tarkov wiki - quest name
there are picture there, where it can be

[thick spade]

do you have the quest accepted

[robust panther]

I think it spawns in multiple spots

[glacial fiber]

i got it thank you @thick spade @undone drum @

[fiery spindle]

i keep getting sniped trying to go to extracts on ground zero 😄

there are two pmc extract and they seem like they got snipers in windows or something

[robust panther]

Sniper scav?

[fiery spindle]

have to be scav i am doing offline mode to practice finding extracts

[undone drum]

post screenshot here

[formal brook]

hey guys im back

ive made a lot of progress

i have a lot of stuff and valuble stuff

[undone drum]

scavs aim is kinda bad, as long as you don´t stand still, its not that bad.

[formal brook]

thx for the help arma earlioer

[undone drum]

no worries, glad to hear

[formal brook]

how do i take a screen shot and put it on here

[random meteor]

your probably getting sniped by a border sniper if you leave the map a boundary sniper kills you

[formal brook]

if i dont have disocrd on my phonwe

[fiery spindle]

is this the extract?

[random meteor]

yes but you have to shoot a green flare to extract there

[fiery spindle]

it says "signal flare area"

[random meteor]

there’s a green flare on a dead scav near that

[undone drum]

@formal brook i think i didn´t do anything 🙂

[fiery spindle]

i was running past there and getting killed like immediately by a sniper guy

[formal brook]

how do i take a screenshot and put it one here

used to be completly empty

dont judge the organization skills....

[undone drum]

restart game, check if you can

compared it, with gunsmith, don´t see any issue

[fiery spindle]

is this

This extract

[undone drum]

👍

[fiery spindle]

this shit is pissing me off

how do you use a vheicle extract

[undone drum]

bring roubles with you in secure container or inventory. Like around 8000

go to vehicle back and press F

wait 1 minute, don´t die

you will get extracted

[fiery spindle]

is the yellow taxi the vehicle extract on ground zero?

[dark trail]

Black SUV

[hushed barn]

level 15 first wipe anyone trying to show me around reserve?

[fiery spindle]

oh shit i found it

was on wrong street

should i insure all my starter shit like mp5s and armors?

[regal smelt]

what quest on reserve?

[hushed barn]

im just trying to learn the map i do have some quests for it though

[regal smelt]

what region r u

oh wait

i'm tweaking

2 ppl, same pfp

[fiery spindle]

what is the go to cheap backpack/storage option for looting? just do scav run and tyr not to die and get a bag from them?

[tough widget]

im confused, is the scar 556 just a really bad gun? why is it so bad?

[inner flume]

Scars are just not as good on stats as the alternatives

[austere current]

how do you unlock weapon rack? mine is locked :S

[orchid isle]

its fucking huge

shoots slow, no ergo

i only run it sometimes cus it sounds punchier

[inner flume]

marine loadouts

[pale hedge]

how do i hold tons of rouble stacks in a smaller space

[inner flume]

Money Case, Docs Case in a pinch

[hushed field]

wallet

[pale hedge]

wallet holds 400k roubles

[dusty spruce]

wallet holds 2m

[pale hedge]

can i get these from traders?

oh is there more than one wallet?

[dusty spruce]

no, you just can't hold more than 400k on your character

[pale hedge]

ah.

alrighty ty

[inner flume]

Yeah i'm pretty sure you can, depends on your trader rep, Docs can be bought from flea market too

[fiery spindle]

man it so hard to tell what is a scav when you playing scav

how hard is it to regain rep from killing scavs?

[inner flume]

Best way is from taking car extracts as PMC

[fiery spindle]

that the best way to get rep in general?

to lower scav timer?

[inner flume]

Taking car extracts, coop extracts

[robust panther]

If you play enough scav runs your timer will go down over time

[fiery spindle]

probably shouldn't worry about it since game will probably wipe in 1-2 month?

[pale hedge]

best place to scav other than streets?

[undone drum]

ligthouse - water treatment plant

[pale hedge]

alrighty ty

[fiery spindle]

will tasks to visit area count if you do on scav?

[shell shadow]

No

[shell shadow]

Car extracts. Do once or twice on every map. If u want to lower cooldown even more you could upgrade ur intelligence center in hideout

[wispy coyote]

??event

[carmine lantern]

Tagilla & Killa on interchange with 100% spawn rate. Good luck hunting!

[fiery spindle]

if you forget to heal after you die, you are pretty much screwed or use meds in hideout?

[swift fern]

use meds

or if downbad i suppose another quick traid won't hurt

[fiery spindle]

got this from scav, shoudl i keep it?

[shell shadow]

If ur new to game. Flea market it

[swift fern]

discord is so scuffed wrong reply hahaha

[shell shadow]

Wtf

istg I clicked other

[swift fern]

it's discord

[shell shadow]

Ah ok

So not kms

I live another day

[slender stream]

Is it worth wearing a helmet

[fiery spindle]

i can just run to quest item, loot, put in secure container and die and it will save?

[slender stream]

No

[undone drum]

90% of the quest items need to be "found in raid"

means: you need to extract with them

without it being "run through"

[chrome shore]

SUKASUKASUKABLIET

[chrome rapids]

Yes

[fiery spindle]

i put a bunch of stuff from my scav on sorting table since mys tash is full

and now im stuck

i can't sell it now and have to discard?

[lofty wave]

yeah unless u delete some things in your stash for ur new scav loot

[fiery spindle]

can i upgrade game edition and get instant stash space?

[lofty wave]

yeah

i dont think it would work as ur trying to transfer items from ur scav tho

its like the next time u start the game

[fiery spindle]

if i ctrl alt delete and close it

do i just lose all item on sorting table?

[lofty wave]

ive never tried but yeah probably

[plucky tangle]

can you not stand back up with broken legs if you are laying down

i couldnt move at all and i died

game bugged or something I could lean but couldnt move or stand up :/

[fiery spindle]

it worked

it opens back to sorting table with larger stash

[plucky tangle]

has this happened to anyone else

I was frozen in place until i died

most annoying shit ever

[lofty wave]

interesting

[lofty wave]

no u should be able to

[fiery spindle]

it went straight back to sorting table/inventory and i could move it out

[plucky tangle]

i was bugged then

[fiery spindle]

nice to know, i was going to upgrade edition but just hadn't done it yet

[plucky tangle]

I couldnt move at all after my legs got blacked

i could aim but couldnt move or look around until i died

couldnt even stand back up

[fiery spindle]

game is addicting...

[lofty wave]

yeahhh

[plucky tangle]

how tf do you find a team as a newish player 💀

[random meteor]

just say

hey i’m a newish player does anyone want to play

[fiery spindle]

its a shame they don't have this game on a newer engine

[somber zodiac]

does the toz count as a bolt action for tarkov shooter part 3

[fiery spindle]

im new too, just fyi this site is super helpful

https://tarkov-market.com/maps/ground-zero

you can use screenshots to find yourself on the map in like 10 seconds

[chrome rapids]

Ew why is my tarkov taking 7-8 minutes to load into a raid when it’s on my ssd?

[wicked marsh]

anyone need customs or woods?

[earnest spindle]

if i pay for BTR to take to stash are the items found in raid?

[drowsy laurel]

yes

[ember cloak]

Whats a good lavatory craft for money?

[teal depot]

very niceee

[plucky tangle]

HELP I CANT LEAVE THE GROUp

ive been trying even restarted the game

i click this and it does nothing

[charred timber]

clear cache in launcher

[plucky tangle]

where

yt videos are old

nvm i think i got it maybe

buggy ass game

[charred timber]

indeed

but u gotta think, if so many ppl play it this much even tho it has so many bugs

[plucky tangle]

i prob wont really focus on doing task until wipe happens

[charred timber]

Then the game must rly be hella fun

[plucky tangle]

its addicting

its meth for gamers

[tough widget]

its not as bad as star citizen, SC is still the best game I have ever played, even with its array of bugs

[plucky tangle]

what do i do with a scav that stole the gun off a pmc i killed

as a scav

[tidal lagoon]

decide if its worth it

[plucky tangle]

it is

im killing this mf

funny ass gun

i made it out

[misty dragon]

pls help, I honestly have no idea how to survive anymore. I spent my sweet time looting my spawn, went to the resort to loot out anything left behind with keys. at 10 minutes left into the raid I sprinted towards the extract and I am pretty sure that this guy that killed me is cheating

third raid I die to a suspicious non eod dude, 3 raids today, this guy is the most obvious

[dark trail]

skill issue perhaps

[misty dragon]

honestly, i am ass, but this aint it

[astral glen]

So we can't help you, click the report button and help yourself

And maybe change your server selection if you're encountering cheaters and stuff

[misty dragon]

Yeah I know, but since I am getting this many then everybody should have experienced something similar, was just wondering wether they get off or switch servers like you suggested

[tidal lagoon]

there is a good amount of cheaters around

[misty dragon]

Alright. I am serving in the military, barely get to play so I wouldn't know.

[astral glen]

I haven't experienced something similar

I sometimes can go days without seeing anything suspicious, some days I see multiple in an hour

[misty dragon]

I see. We'll, I'll take a break to cool down and hop back in on another server

[split hound]

do goons still spawn in lighthouse?

[astral glen]

When they are on the location, yeah

[civic quest]

my stupid ass left the generator on overnight and wasted all the fuel i had left, what's the best place to find some?

[clever lintel]

Hi can someone help me with my Mosin rifle? Idk what scope to put on it I tried buying different scopes and none are working

[civic quest]

to put a scope on a mosin you need the sniper variant and the kochetov mount afaik

either that or i think the archangel chassis comes with a rail

no wait scratch that its a separate part

[clever lintel]

idk im looking at it idk where the mod to it is and what scope to put on

[civic quest]

yeah so you need:

• a sniper variant mosin (other ones dont accept a scope mount)
• a kochetov mount (https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Mosin_Rifle_Kochetov_mount)
• either a PU scope mount + PU scope (Prapor LVL1) or Arbalet Rail Mount (Jaeger LVL1)

you can tell if a mosin is a sniper or not by the fact sniper mosins have sniper in the name

[clever lintel]

I just bought it and cant install it somehow

[civic quest]

can you send a screenshot

[split hound]

okay, out of all the raids this wipe, I never seen them once in lighthouse. Still in the chalet area no?

[civic quest]

you have the infantry mosin

[astral glen]

Chalet and also at the WTP

[civic quest]

you can get the sniper mosin from prapor as a barter for a bunch of batteries iirc

[clever lintel]

Oh I see it's different lol

ty

[split hound]

ah didn't know they spawn in WTP, I only thought it was on chalet.

[civic quest]

dont worry i did the same thing with my first mosin

[hasty aspen]

anyone wanna run customs with a level 7?

i dont know any of the good loot spots rlly

[hazy bison]

I will

I'm level 10 looking for someone who knows customs more than me, I just started doing raids there

[hybrid nimbus]

i can help a bit i got a few missions there i'm trying to to get done too

[hazy bison]

ok I'm NA so ping might not be the best but I'm still down

@hybrid nimbus

[hybrid nimbus]

yeah no probs

[hybrid nimbus]

you down ?

[hazy bison]

I'm Feeney93 on there

[hasty aspen]

im in a raid rn but probs wont be too long

[hazy bison]

I can wait

[hybrid nimbus]

ight i'm in beginners 2 waitin

[hazy bison]

I'll join in a min or 2 just gonna grab a drink

[hasty aspen]

ok ill join in a sec

[native wing]

https://i.imgur.com/zOYXhJP.png

i dont need to hold onto these do i?

the gp coins......

[tardy crescent]

They've got some pretty good barters

[charred bronze]

what's a good gun to use after getting level 15

[tardy crescent]

So I'd say they're pretty worth it to keep

[charred bronze]

i thought i would have access to most items after unlocking the flea, but whenever i build a gun the parts are always unavailable

[native wing]

but i dont need them found in raid ever it seems

i can always grab them off flee etc.....

[tardy crescent]

You can but I'd just keep them for the barters

No point in selling them now just to rebuy them later

[native wing]

lol space my friend

[tardy crescent]

Dont have a junkbox?

[native wing]

im a recovering hoarder

[tardy crescent]

You could go through the barters and grab what you think you'll use

[native wing]

face palm,,, like i said

[tardy crescent]

Yeah you won't get much space back but you might get a couple items to use sooner

[soft tapir]

How the fuck do I get "used" to magnified optics??

[tidal lagoon]

use them

[soft tapir]

yeah but i find them incredibly clunky and off putting

idk how to fix myself

[tidal lagoon]

r u using the meta ones

[soft tapir]

ive never used LPVOs, no

[tidal lagoon]

what do u use

[unreal horizon]

just use vudu what

[soft tapir]

currently i have prism 2x on my gun

and thats pretty much my limit

[tidal lagoon]

meta is meta for a reason, the 2xs and stuff arent that bad but i would never use something higher than a 2x that changt change zoom

but 2x doesnt feel that bad or different for me so idrk how u could get more used to it

[inner flume]

Just use a normal LPVO, Vudu/Razor/Tango6/SB 1-8x/Valday

[soft tapir]

whats the cheapest one>

[tardy crescent]

They're all gonna be over 150k

[soft tapir]

WHAT

[inner flume]

SB and Valday

[tardy crescent]

Maybe you get the Valday for cheap

But "good" scopes cost a goofy amount

[inner flume]

the barter for them is reasonable if you have it unlocked

[unreal horizon]

honestly even without barter vudu is worth it

[tardy crescent]

Yeah was about to say

But iirc some are quest locked??

[inner flume]

You can try using the Specter/HHS for 1x-3/4x its still a 1x and a big higher optics, those are much cheaper but arent AS good

[misty dragon]

Can somebody "carry" me on streets? Ive played the map a few times, enough to find my way to abandoned factory, but I need to do revision on streets

close to lvl 4 peacekeeper just need a few tasks done

[soft tapir]

whats your opinion on a fixed magnified optic and a canted

[unreal horizon]

trash

vudu exists for a reason

[soft tapir]

[tidal lagoon]

fixed magnification is ass

it is what it is

[soft tapir]

yeah

[inner flume]

I mean it functions but its not what i would recommend, either go for one of the good LPVO, maybe a specter for a real cheap alternative, but i would not recommend actually using fixed+canted

Canted only is truly useful for the chicken wing meta and when you have a Thermal you need the offsight for windows

[unreal horizon]

me when i just shoot the windows

[inner flume]

that works too

[pale hedge]

i am getting rolled today man..

[misty dragon]

need a carry on streets, gotta do revision

[pale hedge]

whats a good cheap pistol to go with a sniper

[unreal horizon]

5-7 ig

but if you're using a sniper you usually dont need a backup

unless you have a massive scope

[pale hedge]

ive heard its always good to take at least a small sidearm for when your in a pinch

were they wrong or

[unreal horizon]

its preference ig

ive never had issues with needing one

like if theyre close just switch to 1x and shoot them

[pale hedge]

my scope's 4x only

[unreal horizon]

maybe bring one then

or switch scope, having a 1x is really convenient

[pale hedge]

would taking a face cover be a good idea?

[unreal horizon]

every raid

[pale hedge]

does a half mask do the job? i can buy them from ragman

nvm i was mistaking that with the sock (balaclava

what do we think?

[solemn raptor]

it will do the job.
Pick up the 6b34 goggles from prapor as well. I've tested every goggle and those were the ones that gives you the best concealment.
Upgrade to a more suited face mask whenever possible.

[pale hedge]

ill get one brb

[solemn raptor]

and uh... drop the helmet if you want to be stealthy. That thing is going to get you killed.

[pale hedge]

do they reflect?

[solemn raptor]

no

[pale hedge]

oh goodie, ty

[solemn raptor]

@pale hedge wear those, never wear anything else. Ever.

[inner flume]

Should alway have a face mask, the white pink skin pops out like crazy in our screens, i recommend either the grey baclava that in the picture for urban/night, and green shemagh for woodland map, wouldnt recomment glasses as they tend to render black trough windows and the fog

[pale hedge]

that being said uh, does this work?

[solemn raptor]

those goggles aren't bugged, do your research.

[solemn raptor]

go to ragman, pick up his chimera boonie hat.

[pale hedge]

this one?

thats the only one hes selling me

[solemn raptor]

@pale hedge I think, in tarkov, the chimera might be the best for concealment regardless of actual terrain, it's the only one that has foilage on it which breaks your shilhuette, the most important thing.

[solemn raptor]

you don't have lvl2 ragman?

[pale hedge]

nope, im level 8

[solemn raptor]

mm... alright, go to fence, pick up whatever green hat you can find haha, like a camo cap or something

[pale hedge]

which one works better?

[soft tapir]

people actually use that? i thought it was just a scav thing.

[solemn raptor]

the tan boonie is workable, however you really need to know what you're doing in order to make it do you more good than bad. @pale hedge

[pale hedge]

ive seenn someeone use it yeah

[solemn raptor]

buy both, test them out and see how your character looks :)
Then make up your own mind for which one is the best!

[tidal lagoon]

i use it for drip its fire

[soft tapir]

alright

[pale hedge]

alrighty ty ^^

[soft tapir]

i suppose it is best used in lighthouse

[pale hedge]

soemone bought all 39.

[solemn raptor]

I will use the CQCM mask personally, but if I wanted to go full out stealth, the chimera is the go to.
Pre-cqcm the chimera was the ultimate way to go.
It's just... pure awesome.

[solemn raptor]

just refresh

[solemn raptor]

anywhere, it works anywhere, even factory you could make use of it.

[pale hedge]

theyre not here anymore

[soft tapir]

yeah

[pale hedge]

the bandana i mean

[solemn raptor]

don't worry, it would probably just clip through the balaclava

[pale hedge]

can i get an expert opinion on the final adaptation?

[unreal horizon]

Use literally any face cover I can't express how little it matters

[inner flume]

Good enough, just have something on your face its not that deep

They're seeing you 1st shot anyway cause you're unsuppressed

[solemn raptor]

you can use a green backpack and armor, other than that, you're golden

[unreal horizon]

I genuinely can't tell if that's bait

[pale hedge]

ive got a tarzan and 682

[soft tapir]

no

[inner flume]

Theo, i'd recommend you dont listen to that guy too hard for the sake of your own mental health, you're good to go man dont worry too much about it

[solemn raptor]

@pale hedge most important thing, you can use all the concealment in the world, wear a ghillie suit etc. it won't do shit for you if you don't use it properly.
Camo is irrelevant if you're not in a position where it will help you. Those being almost entirely bushes and trees. If you lay in the open, you will be spotted regardless. It's only when you're in a concealed position that it's going to have any affect what so ever.

[lofty bridge]

@pale hedge U need better boots

[pale hedge]

yeah i sat between rocks when i was using that aug, so backdrops do matter, and ill call my kit good ty for the help

wish i had fleemarket so i could nab a surpressor for it tho

[soft tapir]

the stuff you wear (other than the class of your plates) doesnt matter that much

most people are running ammo that pens class 4s and 5s anyway

[solemn raptor]

no worries!
And remember, don't take advice from people who can't back up their claims.
If you don't understand why you're doing the things you're doing, you shouldn't be doing them at all.

[unreal horizon]

Positioning is more important than what you wear

[soft tapir]

^

[solemn raptor]

100%, it's only when you're in that good position, that the gear you use will have an impact on you being spotted or not.

[pale hedge]

is there a way to see what ive got on my person in roubles?

[unreal horizon]

like i've sat here full blueberry and no one ever sees

[lofty bridge]

Its because ur a pro exit camper

[pale hedge]

idea, un, w blueberry kit

[soft tapir]

no, hes just lucky to get a lobby full of timmies

[lofty bridge]

he is a timmy

[unreal horizon]

i love my lobbies of lvl 60 timmies

[inner flume]

D-2 has refined the hiding in plain sight technique, chads dont look up remember that kids

[unreal horizon]

he forgor to look to the skies

[lofty bridge]

the level 4 giga chads do

[inner flume]

Cant wait for one of them to kill me so it can prove you right, sadly i dont recall any instance of being seen before i shoot when i'm up high

[pale hedge]

does that mean i should get up high

[unreal horizon]

It works

[solemn raptor]

You'll be seen

[unreal horizon]

Whatever you say little guy

[pale hedge]

but the d-2 metta

[unreal horizon]

Do what works best for you

I get spotted maybe 1/50 raids up high

[solemn raptor]

@pale hedge be in a place where if you where the enemy your wouldn't be able to see yourself.

[pale hedge]

d-2 meta>factory stairs leg meta

do bipods actually function or is it just a stat boost

[unreal horizon]

Stats

[pale hedge]

smh

[unreal horizon]

Would be sick

[inner flume]

Lol being up high is good, just dont skyline yourself cause that's what gives you away

[soft tapir]

what were you expecting, a complete game?

[pale hedge]

well with a bible of controls yk

[unreal horizon]

Fair

[inner flume]

based take tbh

its supposed to be coming soon so who knows we will see

[soft tapir]

Gonna come out after 1.0, and as a paid "expansion"

[tidal lagoon]

finna be useless anyways

[tardy crescent]

No we should be getting bipods and mounting as normal base game stuff

It was meant to be coming with one of the recent patches iirc

[soft tapir]

yeah, ofc. i was just joking

[unreal horizon]

Bipod would be pointless inside of like 1000m

[soft tapir]

but istg if the bipod deploy animation is 2 seconds or something. gonna be useless.

[tidal lagoon]

bipod = boost to camping

[tardy crescent]

The weapon mounting should be fire af

[soft tapir]

i personally dont think it would change much

sniping would be better

and thats about it

[tidal lagoon]

it will give us rats with pkms

[soft tapir]

[unreal horizon]

That would be heat

[tidal lagoon]

im gonna do that when they add bipod function

be a bitch and camp somewhere with my 0 recoil pkm

squad gameplay

[orchid elm]

rpds and pkms gonna be fire after bipods

g36 would unironically have some use too

[soft tapir]

yeah

[orchid elm]

if you wanna have a super stable 5.56

[pale hedge]

critique my form

[unreal horizon]

Maybe the single most camped place on woods

[soft tapir]

personally, no hard cover

if you are spotted you might as well disconnect

[orchid elm]

a lot of people would pass behind you

seems like a very bad sniping spot

[pale hedge]

should i extract and hope for a better spawn?

[soft tapir]

yes

[unreal horizon]

Go up on top of the rock by the house there

[pale hedge]

wouldnt i be skylining myself?

[unreal horizon]

Not if you're prone
