[pale hedge]

ah sure then

brb

oh i have un roadblocks.

i was gonna extract and hope but its rock time

that one?

[unreal horizon]

The tall one by the house

It's about the same height as the house

Could do it pre vaulting so it's probably easier now

[pale hedge]

that one?

[unreal horizon]

Right of the house from that view

[pale hedge]

one of these two peaks?

[pale hedge]

oh thats the one im at

alrighty ty

[unreal horizon]

Np

Go prone just make sure you're not silhouetting with a backpack

[soft tapir]

drop the backpack entirely

[pale hedge]

right here or the tippy top

it wasnt meant to be

man getting off of a 3 extract streak into a 5 loss streak is crushing.

well, for first trying a sniper, is this any good?

mostly note the first kill

[solemn raptor]

What about it?

[pale hedge]

64m, headshot

[unreal horizon]

on a scav

its progress ig

[solemn raptor]

So.. like a slightly below average range eft "sniper" shot?

[pale hedge]

ill just take d-2's response then, nvm

[unreal horizon]

use the mp18 it gives you aimbot

[pale hedge]

is that a gun or a sight?

[unreal horizon]

its the funny shotgun/sniper

my understanding is that it has an unrifled barrel so its a "shotgun"

[inner flume]

Good first attempt, we all start there

[pale hedge]

thanks for the optomism man, really keeps me trying

[weary quartz]

I’m trying to use grenades for the first time. Any advice on how to aim or use them properly?

[unreal horizon]

throw them at ppl

[weary quartz]

Fair. Just hope it doesn’t bounce back towards me

[solemn raptor]

practice in offline :)

[rich horizon]

is there a particular best map/way to get an antique axe?

ive been farming scavs on customs, streets and factory with no luck

for the past 4 days ish

[edgy root]

whats the best kit to run as an under level 15 player with level 1 traders?

[inner flume]

PP19 isnt bad to start

[scarlet prawn]

lets say im pronne in front of a dead body and someone else appears inn front oof the dead body can i shoot through the dead body and hit the enemy or na

[lone grove]

im pretty sure the hit box of a dead body will either block all bullets or has a high penetration level. pretty sure its bulkletproof unless theyve updated it

@scarlet prawn

[scarlet prawn]

Thanks

[solemn raptor]

you think so? I was sure bodies were just visual and didn't interfere with bullets?

[umbral wigeon]

can someone play tarkov with me pls

a long sentence huh

[lone grove]

@solemn raptor I have had quite a few instances where a dead body has protected me from a scav shooting me, but i have not been shot at by a pmc while hiding inside a dead body. Obv they are able to be passed through by our bodies and we can hide inside (which is a fantastic tactic to use), but there is something to be talked about how the ragdoll physics will definitely act funny. If you notice, stacking up dead bodies, they start to react to each other when the pmc/scav bodies immediately die, their bodies being thrashed about.

[scarlet prawn]

Idk i sprayed throough a dead boody at a guy and not a singular bullet landed on him

but tbf i was shoooting toe ammo

[lone grove]

Hinting at the fact that there is still an active hitbox

Offline mode to test?

[solemn raptor]

yeah, interesting, if you're down we can go test it right now

[lone grove]

yes

[solemn raptor]

great minds think alike haha

[lone grove]

5 man 1

voice

[solemn raptor]

on it

[pale hedge]

are these any good

[sharp socket]

they are pretty solid yeah

[soft timber]

how much is the razor from jaeger after doing shooter pt 8?

[sharp socket]

around 150k for the total barter

[soft timber]

ok was about to say not even worth it if it was 250 😂

Thanks!

[lone grove]

@scarlet prawn Test was done. The dead body is NOT able to be penetrated. Now this is very iffy, given that the dead bodies are always different for each person's screen, so it is sometimes a few inches, even feet, off of what the opponent will see. So it is definitely at your own risk!

[scarlet prawn]

Check out my video! #EscapefromTarkov | Captured by #Outplayed
https://outplayed.tv/media/BbK0V2

[scarlet prawn]

This is my clip here.

[lone grove]

Makes sense, he had a better angle just over the dead body, and the angle of your gun was being blocked by the dead body. That in the instance where a dead body will do no good for us.

That is***

[undone drum]

but what assistance do you need?

[scarlet prawn]

Im good just showing him a clip

[undone drum]

ah allright

[young beacon]

Idk who did the test but I’ve 100% killed people through dead bodies before unless they changed with this last patch

I was laying holding the body and he crawled the other side, I shot through the body and killed him. So very little possibility the dead body was in a different position than on my screen as he was laying down then he died

[lone grove]

I just went into an offline raid with a buddy and shot through the body in many angles and like I said it’s iffy but the parts that do stop the bullets are impenetrable

[lofty wave]

its like 250 rn

[soft timber]

yikes

[weary quartz]

is farming tagilla at low levels viable?

[keen fossil]

Yeah tigilla is super easy to kill

[weary quartz]

problem is the other player rushing to kill him

[keen fossil]

Yeah

[main rover]

is there a way to convert dollars to rubles?

[keen fossil]

Don’t

Your gonna end up using usd

you need 8k for a quest

Plus most good weapons are bought with usd

[fiery spindle]

are woods and customs the two early quest maps?

[unreal horizon]

after gz yeah

[fiery spindle]

trying to kind of practice for next wipe

do a lot of the early quests

probably a shit load of people do them at wipe start so likely not a good idea to try and do them right off the rip for bad play ers

[unreal horizon]

i mean what else is there to do though

kinda just have to push through

[tough dagger]

what's a good loadout/kit to run if you've just hit lvl 15 for the first time?
so far I've just been running an aks 74u with a sight, grip and barrel with whatever armor and rig I could throw together

[lofty wave]

Buy the uley rig off the flea and get 5.45 ps ammo off of fence

[tough dagger]

I've already been running 5.45 ps, I just scav reserve for money so I almost always walk out with 120 rounds of ps,pp or bp ammo. I'll take your advice on the uley

[lofty wave]

@tough dagger once u hit level 17 buy the ratnik barter for bleaches from ragman

level 3 helmet for 20k

and u can use any headphnes with it

[tough dagger]

got it

when do I want to consider switching to a different gun/armor combo?

[lofty wave]

u could use an sks at any point with the 20 round mags as long as u got at least ps ammo for 762

u can use the sks with the pso scopoe at any point if ur on like woods or smth its really not that bad

[lofty bridge]

whats the best gun setup i can use w level 1 traders?

[lofty wave]

any 545 ak

[rustic belfry]

Thank you

I couldn’t turn in because my durability was less than 60

[hearty moon]

are the cultists currently not spawning perhaps? I've been trying to find a priest for my quest for 2 days now, I'm hitting cultist spawn spots on woods and shoreline and I had ran into 0 cultists

[tidal lagoon]

they r spawning

[hearty moon]

well that's some shitty spawn rate then, It's been around 12 raids with 0 spawns for me

[short bay]

hello

got a remington m700 sniper for the first time

which option in settings is to change zoom_ if possible

[astral glen]

It entirely depends on your scope

Check your controls, the two you're looking for is change scope magnification and switch between sights

The first one will toggle the zoom of your variable optic if you have one

[short bay]

i found it on a pmc

it's a March tacitcal 3-24x42 ffp

30mm

[astral glen]

Then do as I said and check your controls

Switch between sights will swap between different sights on your weapon

Scope magnification will swap the scope between the different modes

[short bay]

the switch between sights does nothing when i press it, and change scope mag just keeps clicking everytime but does not move from x14

[astral glen]

That scope only has a 14x magnification

It is not a variable optic

[short bay]

bleh, thanks

[tulip kettle]

Any tips for shooter part 4?

[solemn raptor]

Aim small miss small, what do you want to know?

[tulip kettle]

just on 80 meter plus kills

like where should i snipe

most my kills arent past 80m with snipers

[chrome rapids]

Does everyone use the big rock on woods to navigate

[solemn raptor]

no, everyone does not use the big rock to navigate. Doesn't mean it's not a good landmark though.

[solemn raptor]

Hunt down pmcs, look for long sightings. Use maps in raid to find good positions on the fly.

[hearty moon]

is there any location that guarantees cultists spawn?

[north bear]

No

[civic quest]

alt+ads iirc

by default at least

[atomic plank]

just curious, if i have a vendor at level 2, can they drop bellow back to 1, im comtemplating on who to give the information about the transport van on Customs. ive looked at all the rewards and the cash value is best for skier aswell as he is still level 1, i just dont want the other vendors to fall back to level 1. Chears i appriciate any answers people can give.

[crimson garnet]

updated arena and malware bytes has quarantined my launcher. anyone else experience this?

[lofty wave]

yes they can drop back down to a lower level if u lose rep

[inner flume]

Yes they will drop back down, however after you turn in chemical part 4 you will received additional quests that are just giving items (buyable from flea) to the other traders to gain back the rep

[ember cloak]

Do i need the RPD for a task?

[astral glen]

rare

[fossil karma]

How often are wipes? Im waiting till the next wipe to buy the game

[astral glen]

No one knows, roughly 3 months from now (they wipe every 6/8 ish months) also starting now would be much better than waiting for a wipe

You'll have much more chance to learn the mechanics of the game and then when wipe comes you can tryhard

Gear will be easier to obtain and so will money at this stage of a wipe

[fossil karma]

Alright ill try to start at some point tomorrow good to know thanks

[chrome shore]

Can anyone take me to do mission

[undone drum]

you can check on tarkov wiki, if the item you want to know about needed in a task. Just google: tarkov wiki RPD

[undone drum]

check sherpa discord in channel #sherpa-info
there is ton of people who are helping a lot

taking people on a raid and such

[main rover]

do you need a key for drug lab on lighthouse

[upbeat dirge]

[fiery spindle]

i can't tell where the fuck im getting shot from half the time

im in practice mode and eventually i just run out and run around looking for the guy lol

[merry berry]

Pretty sure they do just have a shit spawn rate. Ive never encountered a cultist except in factory

[dim meadow]

Can anyone tell me what day the next wipe will be?

[inner flume]

no one knows

[limpid vale]

anyone here just help 2 noobs on shorline? helped us get a quest done and took co op with us

[weary quartz]

Man I love taking 12 minutes to load into GZ despite being one of the smallest map

[plucky tangle]

do scavs get mad at you if you shoot raiders

[unreal horizon]

No

[weary quartz]

Raiders aren’t the same as scavs

[plucky tangle]

[plucky tangle]

twice in a row i got killed by player scavs as a player scav 💀

[short bay]

gonna spend an hour managing this nonsense now...

[fossil saddle]

why is the waffle suppressor for the 545 aks so expensive?

[frosty musk]

Cause it's the best one

And flea attachments aren't cheap

[fossil saddle]

the stats are only slightly better than the other supresssors

[fiery spindle]

i keep getting server connection lost... can't get into my guy in raid

[plucky tangle]

im blackscreen while extracting

its not taking me out

[fiery spindle]

maybe server issue

[fossil saddle]

[plucky tangle]

[undone drum]

low supply. they are just rare

hard to find in raid

[plucky tangle]

but i still have my stuff...

like the raid never happened

[undone drum]

check out this guide
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epArHimbrBM&t

[fiery spindle]

caches have good stuff in them? i see them on interactive map and there are a shit load of them

[frosty musk]

Exactly

This game is a lot about min maxing for a lot of players

[plucky tangle]

how much scav rep do you lose for killing player scavs

i wanna shoot the grubs that steal my airdrop

[soft tapir]

Its easier to get loot than to earn back the scav rep

[main rover]

are there any sites online that can be used to mark what items you need?

[main rover]

.1 per player

[scarlet prawn]

dffrOH SHIT

BRO GOT KNOCKED OUT

[undone drum]

yes

https://tarkovtracker.io/items

[main rover]

ty

[fiery spindle]

what causes stash to fail to sort?

[main rover]

doesnt seem like it works for just needing random items

[undone drum]

what do you mean?

[main rover]

I need certain items for abarter, from what I saw the site only lets me mark stuff for quests

[undone drum]

ah, yes

[plucky tangle]

why cant i extract again

this is the second time today

i literally have everything i need bro

what is wrong with this game rn

im stuck in black screen while extracting

what the hell bro

i cant extract and i lost all my loot

second time today

[runic hill]

lol

[chrome rapids]

Ooooof

[buoyant wharf]

if im trying to scav into a raid that my friends are pmc'ing whats a good time to wait

[soft tapir]

What gun do I use to kill tagilla?

[fossil saddle]

ks23 with shrap 10

aim for legs and u can 2 or 3 shot him

[astral glen]

As soon as you died, that’s when a slot opens up

[buoyant wharf]

ok

[soft tapir]

I tried KS 23 in the hideout range and it has really wide spread? or inaccurate asf

[fossil saddle]

from 5-15 m it isnt that bad

[soft tapir]

oh okay

[fossil saddle]

if ur lucky sometimes you can kill ppl from like 30+ m if u aim at legs

[chrome rapids]

Load up a glock with rip ammo and leg them

[soft tapir]

fr?

[fiery spindle]

think this is a cheater?

161 kills in 4 hours lol

these people are sick. what is even the fun in that

[bold kernel]

Do we know when the next wipe is and what weapon should I use at a lower level? I tend to find big weapons as a scab on light house but should I be selling them instead of using them?

Any help would be nice, I enjoy the game and want to play it more :3

[burnt zealot]

Low level as a bunch of choices really

VPO-209, UMP, PP-91 and 19

Mosin, SKS

[soft tapir]

Repair them and use it. You risk jams but way better than what youd get off from LL1 traders.

Thats if you arent gonna use the flea though

But Id recommend looking up the prices of the parts on the guns you find from Lighthouse first, some of them could be meta and would go for insane prices.

[chrome rapids]

Tbf the glock is under rated, you can really do some work with it if you have the right ammo and the drum mag

If you’ve got mechanic level 3 you can get the glock 18c which is the auto version of it

[scarlet prawn]

is there an enemy im not seeing?

[soft tapir]

yeah, ofc but I meant it as in. would it be effective against tagilla

[fiery spindle]

do hide out upgrade pieces need to be found in raid?

[final crane]

i dont think so

[soft tapir]

no

would be insane if it was fir only

[fiery spindle]

wouldn't surprise me lol

so best thing is get lvl 15 and just buy parts

[soft tapir]

But Hardcore would probably mean FIR only.

[soft tapir]

yeah

Just save up rubles

[fiery spindle]

im only level 7, its so slow when you suck

[chrome rapids]

Ohhhh for tagilla? I mean you can try it rip ammo and leg him

[topaz kindle]

just dowloaded the game 🙂 hello im new

[chrome rapids]

Welcome to Tarkov

[topaz kindle]

i died and lost my m4 because i dont know how to extract. theres no map so im really confused on where i was supposed to go

[soft tapir]

😔

[chrome rapids]

You can find maps online for raids

[topaz kindle]

ah

[fiery spindle]

is this site fairly accurat eon prices to flea?

https://tarkov.dev/?search=

[topaz kindle]

wow that site has good maps! thanks

whats the name of the launcher?

to launch the game?

I cant remember what it called and I need to relaunch the game

[lofty wave]

u r on a left hand and that on its own could result in u dying without seeing him but if u combo that with desync/ping its def possible theres a guy there u just cant see

[topaz kindle]

battlestate games launcher, found it

[chrome rapids]

If you know the name your off on you can find interactive maps

[fiery spindle]

this site lets you do a screenshot and get your location

super helpful to learn map
https://tarkov-market.com/maps/customs

i just found it yesterday

takes like 10 seconds at start of raid to help figure it out

[chrome rapids]

How do you get the sc on the site?

[fiery spindle]

you don't uplaod the pic

you just copy the name of the screenshot and paste the name

the name has the info to get the location

[chrome rapids]

Ahhhh, so can you do it all the way through the raid?

And where do you copy the name and paste it to?

[fiery spindle]

up at the top it says where's my location

you can do as many screenshots as you want

i was doing a lot at the beginning of a new map

works really well to help figure out where to go

[chrome rapids]

Ahhhh, so I just find where the sc and the paste the sc to that? Or find the name of it?

[fiery spindle]

yea find your directory for the screenshots

then copy the file name - like you were gonna rename it

go to rename it but just copy the text

and paste in that box - it will put a green dot where youa re

it would have taken me ages to learn new map without it

thank god for it

[inland crane]

what website is that

[chrome rapids]

Thank you, gonna have to try figure this all out like

Is it best off running Tarkov in borderless so I can move my mouse to my second monitor?

[fiery spindle]

what map has best loot by spawns so i can load in and fill secure container and die for money?

keep in mind i am 1 shot from death as i have not healed

[chrome rapids]

Probably streets? If you wanna scav it just do reserve

[fiery spindle]

i will try streets

never did it before

[civic quest]

test drive 4 requires an RPDN iirc

[civic quest]

interchange, check out goshan

[fiery spindle]

i found a key supposedly worth 2mil+. I need to get lvl 15 lol

[final crane]

hey boys, whats a good way to level strength

[fiery spindle]

i read that people will put heavy stuff in secure container and go naked and just run around

i think that was str

[final crane]

i envy eod owners

[fiery spindle]

i bought the highest edition + the stash space lol

they got me for $100+

[final crane]

i barely have the space for something heavy in my secure container

i'd need to upgrade to pfe to be able to do that or something

[fiery spindle]

pretty sure dudes just straight be lag switching and shit in these games

im like stuck and i can't move due to lag

then a guy run up and 1 tap me lol

[chrome rapids]

When you get a docs case you can use it for money and keys so at least you can have more than 4 keys

[fiery spindle]

streets for sure the best map to loot fast and die

spawn right in rooms with loot in them

[devout herald]

I wouldnt run dogtags case in your container

[final crane]

thats fair but if i kill another merc i wanna secure that kill

[devout herald]

Sure you can stash dogtags in there but once you take the dogtags into your next raid they won't have the FiR status

A friend of mine ran it and one day he was like "Why the fuck none of my 100+ dogtags are FiR"

[final crane]

why do FiR dogtags matter

is it like for a quest thing

[devout herald]

Yeah

[inner flume]

yeah quests

[final crane]

oh

[devout herald]

You can get some nice dailies and I believe some weeklies too where you gotta hand in dogtags but they need to be FiR

Would be kinda shit if you had like 100 dogtags stashed up but unable to hand any in

[final crane]

dude the dailies i've been getting are just "survive at [location]" and i cant even manage THAT

yeah maybe i shouldnt run dogtags in secure container

[devout herald]

I am too lazy to do these ngl, you can just go in with a pistol, rush to extract and either wait 7 minutes, loot a bit or kill a scav

[final crane]

oh my god im an idiot

i could've just waited at spawn

[devout herald]

I had a weekly that gave me like 40k xp and tons of money and all I had to do was give this dood 5 chainlets and 5 golden chains

I like to do hand in dailies, I stash some shit up and when I get those tasks I can just do them easy

Unless I get dailies where I need to hand in like 5 bomber beanies and like 5 other helmets that I never find in my raids

[plain mortar]

anyone having input lag with your keyboard

[surreal rock]

how to do with punisher part 4 without losing mind

[solemn raptor]

just.. play lighthouse and bring a shotgun on your back? what's the issue?

[surreal rock]

idk im just meeting 2 mans and im running a shotgun like its setup

[solemn raptor]

no wonder you're struggling.
Don't use a shotgun as your main weapon...

[surreal rock]

gotcha what should I run as a budget primary?

[solemn raptor]

why budget?

[fiery spindle]

man accidently killing another pscav really fucks your rep

[surreal rock]

I only have like 1 mil

[solemn raptor]

@surreal rock I can't tell you what to bring, that's completely personal preference.
Bring a mindset, not a loadout.

[surreal rock]

gotcha, I appreciate the advice.

[solemn raptor]

now what you should be asking yourself if what I mean with mindset

[surreal rock]

wdym

like think on how to play?

[solemn raptor]

mhmm

[plucky tangle]

whats the cheapest item case from therapist

[solemn raptor]

uh.. the junkbox.
Seriously, item cases are horrible value.

[plucky tangle]

so i shouldnt buy

i just want something to store helmets

[solemn raptor]

ragman is a good place to start

he can convert them into usable roubles.

@plucky tangle for real though, you're way better off by buying a junkbox, putting junk in that to free up space.

or.. litearlly any other sort of case

so unless your stash is filled with nothing but cases and helmets, avoid item cases

[fiery spindle]

are all vehicle extracts 5k?

[fossil saddle]

what does intelect do

[runic hill]

@fossil saddle makes brain smoother

[plucky tangle]

i already got junk boxes

[solemn raptor]

do you have everything else boxes as well?

ammo, food etc. etc.

[plucky tangle]

yes

i dont need storage now but

cases would be fine anyways

[hazy veldt]

I thought maps on some other sites were a bit utilitarian, but tarkov-market's even worse

[fiery spindle]

its really only about seeing your location on the map

[bold roost]

Can you also use pkm for gunsmith part 25?

[civic quest]

has to be the exact variant mechanic mentions

[crisp stump]

should i buy the lucky scav box?

i will only have 20k left

[tidal lagoon]

if ure really desperate for it, if not get some more ruble first

i thought it would have stuff in it if i bought it

aint it supposed to be lucky?

and i thought i could put anything in here

[tidal lagoon]

its only for barter items

and a few other categories

despite that its one of the most useful cases

[civic quest]

i have like 3 million roubles i really ought to get one

[soft timber]

at least physical ones like strength and endurance

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[twilit blaze]

can any body co-op w/ me im brand new and im trying to unlock jaeger on woods. i dont know woods very well and keep running into landmines where i think is safe

hmu im in dire need ;-:

[solemn raptor]

get a map, look up a short video on IRL land nav, and.. figure it out. That way you don't have to depend on some rando to help you out.

[idle vine]

Does anyone know how can I fix game minimizing after I push PrtSc button?

[dry flint]

you using a 3rd party program like ShareX or just regular windows printscreen?

[idle vine]

windows Snipping tool

[fresh ether]

I have died and lost good stuff 3 times to mia on customs, how do you learn extracts? the videos suck and only show you what they look like, and not where or how to get to them

[dark trail]

Try doing offline raids to find out wherethey are, and have a map open until you learn the maps

[soft timber]

go into an offline raid and learn the map, with or without ai turned on

a big part of tarkov is learning player spawns, extracts, and paths they take

[frank plank]

When playing as a Scav how do you id them!

[undone drum]

scavs have no hand watch and no pistol holster

you can also voice line them with f1 and hope, they will f1 back

[frank plank]

I always shoot first and run

[undone drum]

scav clothes are mostly more sporty and casual, often sandlas as shoes

[frank plank]

I'm to old! It would be nice if they had a bullseye on them!!!

[undone drum]

are you familiar with scav karma and benefits of them?

[frank plank]

yup, come around a corner and look at their feet before shooting

Thats exactly what I do when I'm lying on the ground dead

I already at my age had one foot in the grave, I feel right at home on the ground bleeding out

[undone drum]

sounds like rumbling brain damage. good luck on your scav raids

[frank plank]

have

[soft timber]

their clothes are messy, usually less textured and pmcs have pads on most of their clothes

[frank plank]

Thanks, I appreciate you guys helping an old gamer!

It was a simpler time playing ZORK on a 32K computer in 1983

[orchid isle]

also there is something like an ai scav and a player scav, both speak russian and ai scavs tend to walk in like a stupid way just slow walking and looking around but player scavs usually move like players

ai scavs will also never make a dropping noise ie jumping or dropping from an elevated height

[stray scroll]

should i use amd fsr 1/2.2?

[orchid isle]

Check online for stuff, never seen anyone use fsr but maybe its good

for tarkov

[frank plank]

thanks

[soft timber]

fsr 1.0 has always been horrible imo

not sure if it will make a big difference in tarky or not tho

[orchid isle]

I heard fsr 3 is pretty decent but idk if tarkov supports it

[soft timber]

ya it's good but i doubt tarkov supports it

[orchid isle]

If you are scavving and hear footsteps and want to confirm if it is a player scav or something else you can press f1 which makes ur character shout in russian and if it is a player scav they maybe will shout back too

[stray scroll]

fsr2 looks pretty good

i dont like taa because it makes my lasers almost invisible

[orchid isle]

Idk i feel like its the only one that works for me

fxaa makes the game look hard to see

altho i run fxaa for other games

[fossil karma]

what does weapon mastery do?

[soft timber]

i dont think it does anything

besides level 3 you can reload while ads

[fossil karma]

oh okay thank you

[soft timber]

i could be wrong but it's never done anything for me

[orchid isle]

!wiki weapon mastery

[broken quail]

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

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Weapon mastery

In Escape from Tarkov, the handling of weapons can be trained through active use. In short, the more you use a certain weapon, the more skilled you become with it.
Depending on the weapon, reaching mastery level 2 or level 3 will provide a new reload animation. Level 3 grants the ability to reload while aiming down sights for all weapons in that mastery category.
Weapons that are based on the same platform share a mastery. 1 EXP is gained for every hit on entities in an online raid. For cartridges that fire multiple projectiles, each projectile hit gives EXP.

[clever lintel]

Hi guys, so I've finally learned the basics and I'm starting to extract more often. My problem now is stash management is there anyone who can help me sort it out? I dont know what to get rid off or sell

is hours account lifetime or does it reset after wipe

[tidal lagoon]

account lifetime is when you started your character and resets with wipe or account reset

hours do not reset

[delicate carbon]

Yo, im new to tarkov and have just gotten to a point where i can consistantly extract on ground zero. Only thing im consistantly struggling with is i cant figure out how to tell the difference between PMC's and SCAV's. when doing my scav runs i obv dont wanna kill other scavs but if i cant identify who is a scav and whos a real player i just end up shooting anything that moves. Any tips on how to spot pmc's from scav's?

[naive anchor]

ty

[tidal lagoon]

its a lot just experience learning all the clothes pmcs and scavs can and looking at their gear

[delicate carbon]

I see, thanks. Anything in praticular that might stand out that i can look for or is it all kinda just learn from experience?

[tidal lagoon]

well pmcs will mostly have camo style clothing

at least early on before they get to buy new clothes from ragman

which most people on 0-20 lvl ground zero dont

so if u see some green camo pants assume its a pmc, and scavs mostly have like dirty/ruined civilian clothing

but ye not much more to it than that imo

u can also press F1 to voiceline and they might voiceline back if they are a player scav

[delicate carbon]

Thanks! appreciate the help, hopefully this will prevent me from losing as much fence rep

[olive marlin]

Is there anyway to change your fov?

Or any better settings I can use

[unreal horizon]

yes

[unreal horizon]

hell yeah

[delicate carbon]

just found 51 euros on a scav run, whats the difference between euros and roubles?

[unreal horizon]

Some traders have parts you can buy for euros

tbh it's just redundant for no reason since you can convert roubles to usd/euros

[delicate carbon]

right, so just like to have more currencies to buy stuff with

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[delicate carbon]

gotcha

[unreal horizon]

you'll mostly be using roubles and usd but it's worth keeping some euros around

[delicate carbon]

will do, thx

[unreal horizon]

np

[gleaming bane]

is it noticeably harder if I start playing tarkov but solo or is it not that much harder?

[unreal horizon]

i learned solo, ik people that learned with groups, we all ended our 1st wipe with max traders so ig it worked out either way

solo is good if you're willing to use the wiki and shit

it gives you direcitons how to use it and shows you your spot on the map

helped me a ton to find these extracts

[gray field]

thanks yeah that is my main problem i cant get to the extracts i am about to mess with it now..

[fiery spindle]

rough when game gives no indication where youa ctually are. if not for third party tools and sites i would never find an extract 😄

i run practice mode to run to the extrats

yeah that how i learn the one is know but when i get move it kinda mess me up

[clever lintel]

lol i had no idea, ty!

[fiery spindle]

found on scav, keep or just vendor?

[pallid ruin]

imo keep and use to level up the skill - unless youre struggling on cash then sell

altho is it too late in the wipe to level it up properly? no idea, id still keep but it depends on ur cash flow

[fiery spindle]

are all vehicle extracts 5k?

[pallid ruin]

5k and they will get lower as you level up your scav rep (check fence rep) - mine is at 1.4k

[fiery spindle]

accidently killed a juiced scav yesterday... major setback

on my scav that is

bruh was loaded, must have killed a pmc

[pallid ruin]

lol, rip - i personally dont shoot anyone as a scav unless i get hit first but scouting for pmcs if u can identify them is a way to play

if you get hit first on a scav you dont lose rep if u kill him

[fiery spindle]

i have a hard time telling the difference a lot

unless they have the goofy scav clothes on

this guy had a full kit of gear with an svd rifle crazy backpack all kinds of shit

[pallid ruin]

yeah thats why i usually wait until i get hit first, id rather die than lose my rep

[fiery spindle]

that's a good point

i will remember that

killing some random pmc not worth .1 rep risk

[pallid ruin]

yep

[fiery spindle]

i barely survive on my pmc so i will go broke without scav 😄

[pallid ruin]

and high scav rep brings a lot of benefits so imo its worth

[fiery spindle]

i spawn right by a quest item i need with the shittiest farthest way extracts

just gonna lay here for 10 minutes lol

[odd bison]

put it in pouch unless its too big or youre a scav

[pallid ruin]

unless it needs to be fir or its a pure quest item

[odd bison]

ya

[fiery spindle]

can i use armor repair kit down to low durability and then sell it for same price or does it lose price each time?

[formal copper]

at least it should do

[clever lintel]

Guys I have all that stuff in my scav case, do I sell it all or keep something?

I have so many insured items I cant pick up cuz my stash is always full lol

[sand snow]

Scav case is normally recommended for storing all the stuff you plan to build your hideout with

[clever lintel]

yea but as a beginner I have no idea what to keep or sell and I have too much gear stuff (rigs/armor/helmets) etc I guess I'll just try to play aggressive now and try to empty my stash lol

[astral glen]

Use the wiki to see what items are required for tasks or your hideout, there are also other 3rd party sites that let you keep track of everything, but the wiki will tell you if you need to keep something, or just sell everything and regret it when you come across a task that needs it

[fiery spindle]

Anything above 20 pen is fine cuz most armors have tier 2 soft armor around the plates and u can cheese a few shots into the thorax

otherwise u got no options

legmeta

[maiden ember]

@crude anvil okay thanks. I was trying rfb + tcp ammo will that suffice for now?

[crude anvil]

i mean

low pen relies on volume

and rfb is the opposite of volume

use like a 545 ak with fmj then spray and pray

fmj has 24pen so

[maiden ember]

Okay thanks

[fossil karma]

how do i increase scav rep

[crude anvil]

lol blackcard is such a gold mine with the stim prices

180k for trima 170k for sj6 200k for etg

[crude anvil]

car extracts

[fossil karma]

okay

[crude anvil]

and playing scav (shocker)

0 point to do that late wipe tho

its only useful early wipe

[fiery spindle]

increase scav rep not worth? only way to make money when you die every time on pmc 😄

[crude anvil]

or just do a money run as a pmc and make 5x more

[fiery spindle]

i mean... you are in the beginner chat man, we are beginners

i have a 30% surival rate with 3 run throughs on my pmc and a .78 kd lol

[crude anvil]

all im saying is scavving is severely overrated

if u care about ur time u money run on pmc cuz u can make more per hour

[clever lintel]

Bruh I cant do customs quests.. too many scavs I cant get a break

Yes saves inventory space. Save up the junk and sell on market when youre lvl 15

Keep in mind you cannot put armor/weapons in them

Only hideout materials

how could i level up faster

[undone drum]

• Do quests - it gives xp
• survive more often - it doubles the xp
• kill scavs through headshot - it gives more xp
• loot everything and everyone, even if you don´t need it - loot xp

• loot and throw it away

[odd bison]

if i kill people as a scav does the exp carry to my PMC?

no

Try out modding in preset and you'll see what's best
Good stuff is really expensive (b-25 rk-1 is ~200k for example)

[clever lintel]

all I know is I need the GK-02 atm

[spare fable]

I just bought tarkov anyone got any tips for me?

[tulip pewter]

Some stuff so pick up:

• all suppressors
• sights like XPS3-0,2,3 (Or tan), Uh-1, Boss Xe, DeltaPoint, RMR, etc..
• scopes like Vudu, Razor hd, Tangost, anything with 'PM-' in the name, Tac30
• grips like SE-5, RK-1, RK-2, B25 RK-1 (angled), RVG, Osovets, SI Cobra
• pistll grip like Gral, St.1 or 2 (skeletonized), Ergo, RK3, MOE AR/AK, AGS-74
• buffer tubes: ARE (black or red)
• stocks: DD EDB, PRS GEN3, RK-3, MOE (Moe RBP (Rubber buttpad)), CTR
• muzzle brakes: G-LOK, Reactor, T-LOK, Wave, PRS QDC

Not a full list im in class typing with ome finger 💀

[pale nacelle]

dyk which trader though ?

[orchid elm]

Peacekeeper

[pale nacelle]

also what the best ammo on flea

[pale nacelle]

thanks

[orchid elm]

SOST or M855

Its prettty expensive though

[pale nacelle]

yeah 1000 a piece

nah should be alright

[tulip pewter]

Its not always on
If you can see a green smoke in front of it you can go out there

[tulip pewter]

Np

[opal knoll]

Lets you spawn with better scav gear and at max rep (6) you unlock a special store from him so yea pretty good

[burnt zealot]

Look on fence, he sell stack of m855 often

way better price than on flea, at the cost of not a constant supply

you can get good early game ammo from fence. 7.62x39PS, 7.62x51 fmj. And LPS/T-46 7.62x54r

m855 is not superb but it's a huge upgrade vs wimpy 856

for 5.45, the better ammo dosen't appear often on fence (other than PS) but scav on woods and there's ammo spawns everywhere that you can easily find ammo boxes of PP and above

what should i stock pile i have like 5 rows of just ammo should i sell it to make space?

oops

[tulip pewter]

Never sell good ammo

[solemn raptor]

sell the stuff you're never going to use :)

[clever lintel]

I litterly looted the whole dorms and found every key except the one I needed 206 ... is there a specific spot for it or am I missing something?

[tulip pewter]

Barter at therapist

[undone drum]

Do you need it for this quest?
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Operation_Aquarius_-_Part_1

[clever lintel]

yea

[undone drum]

always google "tarkov wiki quest name"
This wiki page for example tells you how to get the key - by bartering, as ben suggested

[fiery spindle]

Damn man bad luck I have looted like 4 dorms 206 keys I think

[fresh ether]

Do i reset?
130h lvl16, finished about 3 challenges and am now broke. didnt know how to play the game at the start and have gone all through to lvl 16 without unlocking the next trader. Is it savable? Should i just keep trying while having pretty much no guns and money or do i just reset the account and play over again?

If i dont, how should i go about getting money and challenges done? I have tried a few of the challeneges and have failed everytime except for the GZ ones

[tulip pewter]

No
Play scav to get money and run cheap kits on pmc

[undone drum]

don´t reset, rather learn to make money.

• either watch guides on youtube for money routes and hit them as scav. Streets or lighthouse as scav can be incredibly profitable
• or team up with people here on #pvp-lfg or in this sherpa discord here #sherpa-info

[fresh ether]

alright so say that i just scaved and sold the earnings, what do i do as my pmc in the mean time? just afk?

[tulip pewter]

I guess you can do that if you are really broke

Try to sell scav earnings on flea dont sell to fence

[fresh ether]

yeah learned some basic stuff sells for alot, might just grab a pistol and run ground zero between runs cus the amount of pcs there that i loot for a bit of money

[tulip pewter]

Grab a kora kulon vest (prapor) and a glock (mechanic)

[fresh ether]

aight will do next raid already loading into one

[tulip pewter]

Good luck

[wispy stratus]

I ask to my fellow tarkovskies . Is game fun now? Does ADS sound can be heard from Moscow blaat bablese

[tulip pewter]

Tarkov is never fun
Ads was this bad all the time its not game breaking

[fresh ether]

after your glock run:

wires go brrrr

[tulip pewter]

Nice!

You'll need the IceGreen to barter Tarkine' director key

[tulip pewter]

Keep wires for upgrading hideout

And the duct tape

[tulip pewter]

Btw usually Interchange is a good map for scavving but i would avoid it now because of the event
Try lighthouse, streets if you can run it, but honestly woods is good too (try medical camp or old sawmill, village)

[fresh ether]

as soon as i have enough money do i buy the lucky scav junk box? I had enough before when i was rich somehow but contemplated

do i want to buy it asap or when i have the funds to spare

(i heard it was good)

[tulip pewter]

Its 1.1 mil
Get like 1.5 and then buy it

[fresh ether]

aight

[tulip pewter]

Also use this: https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/escapefromtarkov_gamepedia/images/1/19/QuestItemRequirements.png/revision/latest?cb=20240303233939
Keep the stuff here, you'll need them for quest (found in raid)

Green is found-in-raid required

(Ignore fence if yiu dont want kappa, which i assume you dont)

[fresh ether]

what does any of that mean

i know its like keep for challenge but thats a whole lotta stuff

[tulip pewter]

These are the items that you will need for further quests from traders

You dont have to remember it but i would suggest looking at this image before selling stuff
Again, everything you see at Fence you can sell

[rapid birch]

Let the man discover the game, he will get a hang of it next Christmas, on his 3rd wipe. Can't learn everything from day 5 in TarkovCity 🙂

[tulip pewter]

Real

[tulip pewter]

Although i gotta say if you play really casual and dont push quests you can just sell all of the stuff
(Except for Therapist, i would keep gas analyzers and stuff lol)

[fresh ether]

i got this game 4 months ago but had many massive breaks cus of internet related issues

[fresh ether]

alr

[manic kindle]

anyone bored wanna help me with a woods quests, The Survivalist Thrifty

[tulip pewter]

Eat a Mayo and use a propital

Im not home sadly i cant join

[opal knoll]

Just go to an extract, use mayo and wait

I didnt even need to heal when I did it

[undone drum]

i think its the stashing water and green food on woods

[opal knoll]

Oh, thought it was survive dehydration

[tulip pewter]

Oh ut might actually be that

Sorry @manic kindle

[tulip pewter]

Yeah i just realized that is Zhivchik

[soft tapir]

what part of it do you need help with?

Ive only had issue locating ZB 016

other than that you can just shove the bottle and iskara up your ass and go with a pistol

[undone drum]

@ionic moat
i found COFD here on LH water treamnent plant as a scav:

[last copper]

should i use adar or aks74u

[ionic moat]

thanks my man @undone drum

[undone drum]

as scav you can run in, rogues don´t bother you, when you don´t come to close

[undone drum]

adar = presice but semi auto
aks74U = a bit less precise but full auto

I would say take ak74su

[chrome rapids]

Aks7u is probably the better option although adar can really do some work if built properly

Aks74u can also be really good without any mods to it

I made the mistake of using the prism scope last night and Jesus it’s awful

[soft tapir]

if you are gonna mod an adar you might as well get a budget m4

[astral glen]

and if you gonna make a budget m4 you might as well get an aug

[last copper]

aks is cheapeer too , no?

[last copper]

do u happen to have a level 1 build you could slip?

[tidal lagoon]

use it stock with a sight

[chrome rapids]

Yeah

[last copper]

no verticcal grip or light?

okay, whjatever u say

[tidal lagoon]

its nice but not needed

recoil basically doesnt exist anymore

[last copper]

true

[undone drum]

right click on item, then required search - will show what you can exchange this items for other items

[lofty bridge]

does anyone know why my icons are bugged for some items

like they just show as white icons on the item, but if i equip it its fine

maybe my texture files are fucked up?

@last copper

[lofty bridge]

ty

[lofty bridge]

is this all to flea?

[daring rampart]

flea or vendor not much difference for most

maybe the junkbox stuff

[lofty bridge]

anything specific for flea?

[daring rampart]

blue powder and shit

screws, blue powder, horses

rest of the stuff i left are things that can get up to good highs (40000 per slot) or usable in barters for docs cases and shit like that

some for crafts too

[fresh ether]

just unlocked the workbench, where do the parts for the gun go when you remove it? Is there a storage for attatchments or something?

[tidal lagoon]

into ur stash

[fresh ether]

yeah was looking for them it went in my bag lol

[plucky tangle]

what do i need bitcoin for or do i just sell it

[tidal lagoon]

sell to therapist

[sweet hatch]

what's the go to map for beginners? I played a couple rounds (2 scav and 1 PMC) on Customs, but wasn't sure if that's the move or if I should go for something else to learn

[upbeat elk]

Wherever your tasks are. #1 priority is learning and doing tasks. They will make you learn the maps as well.

All your starting tasks are on Ground Zero

[sweet hatch]

Sounds good, thanks

[candid osprey]

can anyone help me withh the bronze pocket watch quest? dont know the map very well but i have the machenery key. LVL 8 NAE

[woven belfry]

i finished all my ground zero tasks, is it possible to complete the other beginner tasks on maps like woods and customs and defend myself from pmcs with level 1 trader gear at this point in wipe or do i just have to sprint to my tasks and pray

[tidal lagoon]

u have no recoil guns, u will be at a disadvantage but its easier than ever

[upbeat elk]

You can kill anyone with trader 1 gear. Gear is helpful, but not as much as youd think.

[undone drum]

you don´t need to use your traders to get good gear:
scav on ligthouse will provide you ton decent guns and even armor and rigs

if you wanna a yt guide, hit me up

[candid osprey]

is anyone able to teach me customs? lvl 8

[orchid isle]

I just run a mosin

With like t46 from fence

[edgy goblet]

not new to the game but havent played this wipe until 2 weeks ago, did they change the sew it good quests, do i still need the two zabralos or has it been changed to the 6b13?

[upbeat elk]

U dont need zabralo anymore

[edgy goblet]

thanks, been taking up space in the stash and didnt want to sell it just in case

[frozen sky]

focus on learning one map at a time. if its customs then rin scav and pmc raids on the map until you feel comfortable navigating the map.

[frozen sky]

I am on my way to BSG Sherpa, shoot me a DM and We can set up a session to help you learn the map and get tasks done.

[edgy goblet]

would highly recommend playing the game alone if you just start, can play with people for fun and a bit of help but if you want to learn the maps properly its best to do scav raids alone so you dont just end up following people

[sweet hatch]

Thanks!

[covert sable]

Is there any way to get a refund for this game if I paid through xsolla?

[tidal lagoon]

no refund, chargeback but u get like banned from using their services which u dont want

[covert sable]

Whose services? Xsolla or bsg?

[tidal lagoon]

xsolla at least im pretty sure

and they are used by many popular platforms

[orchid isle]

Yea won’t mess w xsolla haha

[covert sable]

Aight thanks for the heads up, would still rather get my money back

[frozen sky]

If you want help tp learn the map shoot me a DM

[sweet hatch]

Cheers man... Lemme get my comms figured out and then I'll let ya know

[lofty bridge]

First reshala kill at level 17, is that good?

[lofty bridge]
