i don't get how i shot someone in the face 9/9 hits with the best 7.62 rounds there are that pen lvl 6 and i die
Focus on PK first. Good ammo is much more important than good armor.
But yes, Ragman.
You can also just check armors on wiki and then see what you need to unlock them
Gigabeef on youtube tends to be up to date on things
Lvl 5 plates the most reliable way is through lavatory lvl 3 crafts
Lvl 6 you basically need max traders
You almost definitely didn't wind up hitting face if it was that many rounds hitting
If you were full auto spraying you may have gotten unlucky recoil and hit, like several different hitboxes
when in pve in scav mode. Isnt tagilla my dude? He killed me once
If you've unlocked the SAS barters you can get cult thermite front plate (1 SAS), and two GAC 3s15m from the hexatac hpc barter, both Ragman, that way you can run a Osprey (SAS barter PK) with lvl 6 and 5 back protection under 15 kg, kind of expensive and you'll still get one tapped, but at least you had fun
no
pve has similar mechanics as pvp, bosses are not your friends unless u have 6+ scav rep
👌
Easiest way is the barter at ragman 4 for a sas drive or farming tagilla cause he’s so free this wipe

ok so what happens if i extract but am still in the raid??
like literally, count down finishes and leaves me in raid
I craft APM in masse, with breaks for SOST or making kite powder thx god APM is at least a very cheap craft once you unlock SPP
collapsed crane on streets
then for armor, i tend to go make some M2 vests for wearing and just started making tac-tecs for the frontplate and/or wearing
- crafting the armids
m855a1 craft
i don't really craft food but i craft heals often enuff, from CMS or medecine to craft IFAKs
this game is basically half hackers
when will pve be availabe to people with below eod

oh boy
but you'll have to buy it
i need to do The Extortionist but i keep dying, can anyone help?
Hey can anyone help me find good money spots on ground zero like any PMC bodies or suitcases
on the wiki theres a ground zero map where you can find some good loot spots
Ok but can does anyone know any good way to make money and fast
New to the game and being on PC so any help would be much appreciated.
reserve has a lot of good loot, try to scav it a couple of times to learn where loot is and how to get around the map
ill help
@uneven kiln same about level 4
i can help too if ur up for it
im rlly bad at pvp but i could teach you a loot run i like to do which makes me a lot of money early game
@hardy aspen I just ran Into a guy named your moms Bf with unheard so what do you mean reserve is good
i play this game a lot and this seems impossible,
im gonna link u a lighthouse loot run, hit that, come back and tell me how much money uve made
dont sell mules
to thera
raiders r easy asf to kill lol
its not a hard quest, just time consuming
the worst part is probably bringing that shitty gear out to give him
what should i learn after customs
Will I be tagged and cursed if I bring armor and a gun in but in my backpack instead of equipped
Trying to do pest control
How do i get better fps?
lighthouse was easy to learn for me, reserve too
turn your quality settings to low/med and turn on the streets fps improver in settins

it has appeared i have died to a "glukhar" twice raids
I think you’ll find it’s glue car
wjat glue car
The Reserve boss, glue car
just now it has also appeared i have been killed by a "raider"
i thought i'm doing the raids
can someone pls help me figure this game out, havent been able to make it more than 5 min into raid, and sherpa server has no sherpa
lfg to help me learn the game and help with quests. dm me
hes the scav boss of reserve
they have a chance to spawn in the bunker
theyre really easy to kill if you use grenades and aim for the head
use flashes to push them out of position, drop them as fast as possible and youll have pretty good loot on your hands
hi, im trying to set up a good kit i can just quickly buy from flea, can anyone reccommend a good level 4 body armor?
Armor is about picking a good rig, and good plates
Best lvl 4 plate is monocletes, and good budget rig/carrier is either the ana m2 or the thor concealable
Plates are swappable on most armors
But carrier the plates go in also has its own soft armor that covers areas on it's own
You want to use a good combo
Zhuk covers good hitboxes, but is only lvl 2 soft armor and uses a russian style front plate
Russian style and western style armor plates have different hitboxes
nah i mean i have the zhuk rig
black
oh you mean ammo carrier rig
yes
most people call that the azimut
oh, didn't know that
yeah, I think zhuk is the company
cus there's two zhuk plate carriers, and two zhuk ammo carriers
both the ammo carriers are called "azimut" though and are identical except color
but yeah, armor plates need something to go in, and which carrier you pick matters
what is the best quest line for xp or should i just keep doing the all of them equally
early game budget is blue press armor or kirasa, later budget is ana m2 or thor concealable, late game chad is defender 2, fort redut, or osprey protection
oh the osprey protection is chad late game?
do all of them, but focus on the ones for traders that need rep first
covers every hitbox it can minus the dick and butt
i have all the rep i need i just am trying to get to lvl 30 asap
yeah just do whatever then
the ana m2 is great for a budget imo since its lvl3 soft + you can put lvl4 plates inside and its not too heavy
unless you're specifically aiming for kappa or lightkeeper
nah just want the thicc case
do i need to buy plates for it?
spa tour + wet job are pretty easy and once you do all of them you get a lot of xp
you'll need to buy plates for almost every armor off flea
if you buy it off the market then yeah, you can buy it with plates but the ones inside will most likely be heavy - its better to run the light ones
on expensive days it can be 40k
but even then, paying through the nose, it's not that bad
you can always cheap but and go without a playe in the back but thats a bit risky - i usually run lvl5 in front and lvl4 in the back when im down in plates
tbf not many players loot rigs - especially this late in the wipe, the lvl4 plates will come back most of the time so its a good investment even for 40k
yep, I agree
no
if gonna farm anyone farm killa cuz u get tracksuit 👍
killa scary
have u been hitting marked rooms at all
jesus
marked rooms r still supposed to drop cards but my last 10 uses have been like this
rng is rng
its just gambling and it always will be
if u want 100% no contest profit u just flea it
me personally im not gonna spam them for cards id fall asleep
this'll be my last one cus i dont got the funds
u have 10mil ur like chill till wipe
Got green on first opening of chek 13 🙏
Where would I go with an issue purchasing Tarkov? I submitted a ticket but I fear it may be ages before that gets addressed. Or so the internet would have me believe.
Appreciate you.
i need more.
i would run chek 13 if the key wasnt so expensive
Cheaper than abandoned lol
What is the issue exactly?
I get an error regardless of what payment method I attempt to use when trying to buy the game.
have you tried different browsers/mobile?
why
money
whats a good gun to kill tagilla pretty fast
really any full auto gun and then just aim for the legs
or just mag dump into the head and he'll die pretty quick
do legs insta kill?
no, but its fast
make sure you use an ammo with high damage, not high pen if you plan on shooting his legs out

Even if I finish the 5 kills part of psycho sniper, as long as I don't have 10 levels in sniper, if I die anytime before I reach the required 10 in the skill the subtask will fail and I will have to start again correct ?
Yes
Its wort to do it with Tarkov shooter 8 as it gives 3 extra skills

is there anyone here that can help me running labs once for my quest? ive never done labs but got im lvl 38 almost 39 need help with "terragroup employee"
do both have access to the same never wiping co op mode? Because the wording is very different
bruh ok thx
waaat
so good lot in there i would guess
would be nice to loot one somewhere instead of 4 mill for 1 use 🙂
i never really get over this waiting times on this game. Its just.. pure shit 🙂 Waiting 5-10mins just to even play it. Its only tarkov that gets away with that kind of shitty service
we still enjoy the actual in game moments...wierd feeling
these load times are nothing, it was a lot worse
Does anybody know if there are any tasks on Streets of Tarkov that are required for Kappa other then Delicious Sausage?
Some sources say they are all required but ive been told its just that one
The guide, shooterborn
I just mean Streets Specific tasks, ive done those 2, But thank you !
How much does shotgun moa matter if I'm using slugs?
i guess these guys have a serious money problem, thats why the servers never gets faster.
or is the the network code thats behind?
i would like to hear the story behind the technical issues and the money issues related to having so slow servers from tarkov devs. I assume this is money based why its normal in tarkov to sit still and wait 5-15mins to even play the game. Have they ever discussed this last 10 years? Iv played it since 2-3years back. Still the same issue... so just a guess its money related. U get what u pay for?
sometimes i get 1-3mins.. but mostly i have 5-13mins. Live in Sweden
CoD is more like 30sec to get into a game.
Why cant tarkov do the same.. whats the issue really. Guessing its money.. but would be fun to know more about it. Would be cool if the russians was more open minded and transparent in their dev style
DMZ mode was ... working for me there when tarkov was shit
seems like tarkov died off. Now we have a the uprising copy cats coming. If BSG had listend more to the people actually playing the game, maybe more ppl would play tarkov. It seems like the game has been static for 7 years
same loading screens in 2024? come on....
Most of the time its 1 player per server/lobby so queue times would be high
Bros complaining bout loading screens
DMZ was pretty boring for me. It didn’t seem like an alternative to Tarkov at all.
I agree.
I only play CoD for the zombies.
simple thing to fix, thats all im saying. Small changes can sometimes be sweet. Like changing out the jpegs on the loading screen 🙂
COD campaigns are tight
Which currently sucks.
u wanna feel like the gaming is changing and getting more modern.. not having same low quality static jpegs like 2013
I honestly love Tarkov loading screens. ~5 minutes to grab some food, feed some dogs, or whatever other small chore you could do
Natural break in between raids
I care about in-raid, idgaf about the shit they show on loading screens
I wish it was BSG tiktok content
that guy goes hard
devs should listen to people playing the game. adapt... see all the good games out there now in early access.. success stories
tarkov for me is love hate relationship 🙂
its almost there... just fix the last stuff...
BSG has been implementing some pretty good changes recently. Aside from the whole TUE thingy.
dude it was such a good year of changes until that
they would be at the height of their reputation if they had done that better
At least they fixed the edition and gave EOD owners PvE.
I still want that beacon thing to be PvE only.
have they given any details about how that was changing
the "mark of the unheard" thing got nerfed into uselessness
I don’t get why the mark of the unheard thing is PvE only, but the beacon isn’t.
another thing that bugs me... If a soldier with 20kg is running thru some small bushes... he doesnt just stop up like its not. its redic. guess they added that to prevent sprinters in terrain
they should look at arma reforger if they wanna implement some real military sim style
I could see how it would slow you down if you’re running straight into the root of a shrub, but just grazing it shouldn’t slow you down.
have you ever tried sprinting through dense bushes?
shit is fuckin hard and you trip a lot
I personally prefer the current way they do it instead of adding a chance to trip
but yea grazing a bush shouldn't mess with you
Going through bushes would definitely slow you down a lot.
But grazing a bush IRL has never made me go a snails pace.
no way man.. try it out.. the weight u carry in that direction does NOT slow u down anything like in tarkov. Its super un real 🙂
its just branches...
The weight doesn’t matter.
maybe in thick terrain
It’s the bush that’s stopping you.
I could go and walk through bushes rn and be pretty slow.
I’d be tripping too.
its not realistic as of now. no one can argue for that 🙂
go out in the nature and try it.. tips.. i spend half life in nature
It’s not, but I don’t believe that you should be able to bulldoze through the center of bushes.
Real.
I want to trip and fall while pushing somebody.
And die because of it.
Add a chance of getting schizophrenia in-raid.
where is my PMC's PTSD?
unreal game
We have that. It's called brainrot
Absolutely
“I swear I heard something over there.”
😂
add brain disorders to tarkov 🙂
allergic reactions etc. 🙂
The real answer is that we're numbing it with constant painkillers
Those painkillers must be STRONG.
so cool small gun
Makes all my broken limbs okay.
Now I can be allergic to everything in Tarkov and in real life.
Imagine hiding and then someone comes along and you SNEEZE
if i where a bsg lead... i would to like MSFS 2020 do it.. collect feedback and requests from all players and rate them. And then start work on the requests. THATS whats the playerbase want in the game they paid 200dollars for (like i did) 🙂
Love that transparency in some game companies.. u get the feeling u can make a diff.
Several things have been pulled from here
Me irl.
Same
I’m allergic to most everything outside.
Except for weird things like most trees.
And grass.
its a voting system. Works perfect!
once again lol, #887656579221053440
it should be able to be ranked by votes
I do think that the suggestions system could be better.
^^
dont get me wrong.. love tarkov in many ways 🙂
Most good suggestions get flooded over by kids complaining about something unimportant.
An actual website page for suggestions would be cool.
Trending suggestions and shit like that would be awesome.
u cant get that "tarkov" feeling in any other game.. thats why i wanna grow the game. Its.... static as per today...
It's late wipe
PvE got me back into the game.
I stopped playing for around a month or two.
But then PvE came along.
9mins... like 9mins of listening to music and having a beer or 2..
PvE?
me incl.
PvE got me back to bro.. PvP was to fucked up.
I love that feeling
adrenaline pumping
Me too, but it was getting a little much.
I just don't understand PvE at all
I needed a break.
but I like that people who want it, have it
Wasn’t healthy for me to always be feelin’ like that.
It’s just Tarkov without all the BS that comes with other players.
No campers or cheaters is absolutely fucking amazing.
There’s something so weirdly fun about going to loot a body and not get camped by a guy in a bush.
Just walking around and playing the game without the same level of stress is such a fun experience.
server connection lost 2x in a row 😋
It’s like I can actually enjoy the game for what it is.
Guys which shotgun shoots faster 155 or 153?
I’m pretty sure that they’re the same.
The guns should have a fire-rate stat, no?
They shoot the same, they are just structurally built different
Both are semi-auto shotguns that shoot the same
i love PvE mode! i can just chill and play tarkov without real humans in my way
I just don't care about success in Tarkov unless it helps me win fights with other real people
what
I certainly enjoy the PvP, but it’s not something that I need to have fun.
I’m still going to play both modes.
I think it's cool that way more of the Tarkov playerbase than I expected was excited about PvE
I thought it would be a total flop
PvE is just when I want to relax and play at the same time.
Yea I just choose other games for that
Yeah, it’s not for everyone, but I was fucking mad that they added PvE and only gave it to the new edition.
imagine if they add option to have minimap... for some players that wants it. Instead of spamming some tarkov map websites for people who dont play it freq to mem. the maps
I really liked the idea of PvE.
small things to hit more playerbase
Yea that was a wild choice
You died while reconnecting I guess
i didnt
But they fixed it, so we chillin’.
there is a reason why CoD is leading this. Its simple and easy... tarkov should try to borrow some of that. Not all.. but options. To sell more copies.. i guess they wanna make money in the end. (not like they are doing now and adding tons of extra to make more money)
game probably literally finished while you were matching
How do you know?
I still have my stuff
I see.
Oh you got that bug
add zooming when modding weapons. I wanna see the nice details up n close. simple fix i assume
The whole reason why I like Tarkov is because it’s not like CoD.
True.
i need help with whats on the flash drive from skier
i got 3 flash driver found in raid but it doesnt check the box and i cant give them as well
What on earth is COD leading these days
But changes like that are so insignificant and not important at the moment.
Bad games.
They fucking ruined zombies, bro. 😭
We need Jason Blundell back.
(The guy who made the best Black Ops zombies maps and experiences known to man.)
god I miss those days
was ref to selling game copies and actual making money.
I grew up on that shit.
It’s sad to see how bad it is now.
true, my point is. If they wanna earn more money. Add more options to lure more people in.
Old CoD was just better in every single way.
They have been making some pretty good changes.
haven't all their releases since MW2019 been total flops?
Less inertia is awesome.
And no FIR requirement test is good just by the mere fact that they’re experimenting shit.
Because this is still a beta game.
🤑 yippee
if you look at the patch notes for this year (except TUE) then everything is a banger
stonk
i dont need money i alr got 30 mil 😭
"The Call of Duty franchise earned a place in the Guinness World Records in April 2021 as the best-selling first-person shooter video game series, with over 400 million games sold at that time.4 dec. 2023"
my point is.. for some its a shitty game. But for 400 millions people that paid for it. Its something else. Tarkov should do something diff. to increase their bank.. they have all the tools ready. just need to change some stuff and add some shit 😉
Yes this was just after MW2019
Like i said.. love tarkov! but they should change some stuff and add some shit 😉
Go work for them lol
maybe i do 🙂
it would make sense, the game has been improving quite a lot this year
.300 is pretty cool with CBJ..
i feel like a king in PvE... and dead guy in PvP 🙂
https://forums.flightsimulator.com/c/official/wishlist/163/l/latest?order=votes ref to earlier conv. if some dev from tarkov wanna implement some stuff from a winning concept.

Hey does anyone know anything about PC’s? I’m looking to buy a new one and was wondering if a 3060 ti with amd ryzen 5 and 16 gb of ram would be good for tarkov
32 gb
what's the exact cpu? and people often suggest 32 gigs of ram
Cpu is ryzen 5 5600x
yea you'll be good
I played on 16 gigs for a long time
it was fine, but upgrading to 32 was notably an improvement
Ok, and do u think $700 for it is a good deal
Yea that sounds like a pretty banger deal if everything is in good condition and there isn't' anything weird with the other components
Do you have a link to it or is something from a friend?
cause if it's used I might negotiate a bit lower
Yea it’s used, I tried negotiating but got it down to 700
See posts, photos and more on Facebook.
There’s the link
Keep in mind I’m currently using a 1060 i5 with 16 gigs of ram
seems like you could get all those parts new for around 850
so, is 150$ in saving enough to warrant it being used and the risk you get with that?
I probably wouldn't do it for more than 600$ but to each their own
Ok, I’m just having trouble finding other ones, would you recommend a prebuilt?
no
right now they are overpriced, building your own saves you quite a lot
How long do parts take to come? I’m currently in college and going home in a week and a half
You might be able to find some exceptions or deals but overall
amazon prime baby, you could get them quick
course it depends where you live
Ok I might do that, I’m looking to try to spend maybe around 800-900 for one, could I get a decent one with that?
If you went fishing for deals and stuff, then yea, 100%
You could build that exact one brand new for 850$ with 32 gigs of ram if you went for a cheaper case
Ok sick, I’ll look into it thank, I’ll just have to figure out the parts and stuff
https://pcpartpicker.com is great
loads of videos on youtube
and of course feel free to ask in here or shoot me a DM if you have questions
Ok sick
im not so good with amd CPU's, but trust me get 32gb of ram instead of 16gb like Syliphn said. The game easily goes above 16gb of ram especially when playing for long periods of time
at what kg amount do you become severly overweight?
I have a 5800X and am definitely going to be upgrading it the next time I make any changes to my PC.
I need one of those X3D CPUs.
Tarkov is gonna run so much better. 🙏
It all depends on your strength levels
what is it at strength 0?
Not sure, they changed it recently. By severly you mean red?
If youre 0 strength, just go into your stash and equip heavy stuff and find out. Cant really find online info on it
I’ll pay anything.

It’s going to be a while until I upgrade anyway.
what do you guys do to complete the quests "Ice cream cone" and "What's on the flash drive" quicker
I always craft the ice cream cones, and I run dorms safes for the flash drives
this is my gear rn, this or something similar for the start of my wipe (being yknow the past couple days) and is it... fine?
woops hold on, have to get the rig in there
best place to get 6b13s?
Scavs wear them, and they spawn in caches
yeah ive just been trying to farm scavs
Not bad, try to get better bullets though

#general-chat message
And do you mean what's the best kit?
not really just trying to do my quest in the rouge area
As long as it's accuracte mid-long range and has some kind of scope it should work
It's more about the approach than the gun of choice
^
trying it now lets hope i can complete it, at rouge camp atm
nope i always just miss one rouge that kills me
been following guides for weeks but cant seem to do it
To be honest a great way to learn rogues is to go at night, offline, with a flir.
Start killing them all and learn their positions
if I post armor I've found, can you guys tell me which ones are garbage and which ones I should wear/mod to be better or something? I am new and don't know what's good, or what plates to put in what. I assume a lot of plates are locked behind some higher trader loyalty levels
Sure, go for it
Armor is easy to figure out once you know
Wiki does help, but the in-game inspect helps better
As well as just asking ❤️
I can blurb a bunch of info about it in DMs if you need
im in a hut on the scav street in interchange being shot at from the mall
I'm at work right now but I plan on submitting some screenshots with some specific questions once I get home
Sounds good
thanks!
Np
And again, feel free to DM
Slow n steady is the game
They voice line all the time to tell you where they are
They get a bead on you, don't ever repeak
hm i should probably just go like 20 raids in a row on offline mode to practice it
Not necessarily, cus you have to turn on boss spawns for rouges to show up
It's actually not a bad idea to scav parts of the compound though
You don't have to hit the whole thing, just one or two buildings then leave with profit
Website I think
where?
Idk tbh
Type "Tarkov bug report" - literally first link.
You can also do it from the launcher i think, right?
why 2 guns
not that much of a beginner question but im struggling to find much up to date info on cultists, trying to get 12 knives in pve 🙂
is night factory the best option^
and do they yell when you throw a grenade?
switching to my pistol is faster than reloading
is it tho?
They spawn on woods, customs, shoreline, and with a tiny percentage on ground zero and night factory.
it is for an sks boy
double tap R
no :)
i do use a 20 rounder, the sks doesnt take externals does it?
They spawn between 22:00 and 7:00 @smoky moat, and the best location to fight them is Shoreline, east wing
Usually they spawn on 1st floor, they make no noise when walking. Be careful.
20 rounders and up work as externals and can be reloaded by pressing R like a normal magazine.
i was completely unaware of this actually, i thought it was just a bigger internal
27th try to clear guards at water treatment so i can do corporate secrets
I can't see them but they can see me
google a tutorial on it, I can't remember the 100% route to do it off the top of my head.
Anyone new to eft need help I can help with tasks and more
What is a wipe and when is it?
There's a specific keybind for quick drawing sidearms, so yes it is
The game wipes progression game wide after really big patches, so everybodh starts from scratch on equal footing

All sks mags are bigger internal ones unless you have an extra in your rig and you're not using the default mag, then you do a mag swap
okay so I have several armors here. is there some easy way of telling which ones are level 4, 5, or 6?
hover the dura or just inspect
nice
so the plates determine how good it is? the armor itself just gives slots for plates?
depends on the armor but generally its the plates
would you sell the gen 4 assault armor? I know from the raid I picked it up in, that it's heavy as hell but it's worth like $130k with ragman
well like its always the plates, just that some armors dont take plates
if you dont wanna use it then sell, no point wasting stash space
Omw home, I can have a longer conversation about it qhen I get home
I know that at this point in the wipe a lot of players run face shields. last time I tried leg meta with an AK74 with US ammo I got killed from a shot to the face though I did do 294 damage with none of it getting blocked by armor so that was probably my first semi-successful firefight so far? at LL1 if you want to shoot for face what's best ammo? higher damage PRS or higher pen US?
less than you'd think
maybe like 1/5
also depends on map
generally you prio high pen
that particular fight was streets but my PC just keeps catching freezes on it so I have decided to boycott it until I get that jaeger quest for streets
unless you plan on shooting legs but there isnt much point with guns having no recoil this wipe
Get bullets off fence, lots of decent ammo better than traders at lvl 1
👍 you want 30-40 pen minimum right now in wipe
If you're gonna aim for upper thorax/neck
Is this a good gun and i cant buy the magazine and ammo for some reason
best gun in game, cant buy shit cause you probably have low trader lvls
How do i get higher level?\
tasks for rep, leveling, and spending/selling with the trader
it says in the top right
Oh okay
It'll be like at least 30 ingame hours till you get to those lvls though
Though you could run it budget once you get, like, bcp fmj or m80
m80 is more than enough outside of labs
labs i kinda want m62 but you can still get away with m80
I suppose that's pretty true
Maybe run better if you're intentionally hot spotting
Like running dorm, resort, etc.

What’s the strongest helmet you can put nvg and a headset on
maska
Ty
Why won't this fit on the front?
Maska blocks headset
because it cant
wrong plkate kind
some carriers only take russian plates in the front
3 different sizes of plates:western, russian, and side plates
i'm just confused that it the plate says front and back but doesn't go in the front
hm
russian plates are more diamond shaped
you need a russian plate for the front of that carrier
is there any way to tell based on the armor and what it will let you put on it
or is it just knowing them
if you inspect the "armor areas" drop drop
if it's a russian plate it's say F. Plate
if it's western it'll say FR. Plate
as far as back plates go, it's either western style in the slot, or weird ass custom ones for that specific armor
there's no both
gotcha
there's one weird plate that's russian
but western shaped
but it also says FR. Plate anyways, and you can fit other western plates in it
link search if you're curious
so it doesn't matter
link search doesnt work as i wish it would b/c some of the plates aren't till page 3 or 4 or are rare and don't show up but on one page at a time ;p or just don't show up period
10/4
how are you searching?
link search from the armor
are you right clicking the armor, and clicking "linked search" ?
you click the wrong button?
yep
happens
"filter by item" shows the item itself on flea
"linked search" shows related and connected items, though there's some quirks
"required search" shows barters that use it, but you have to deselect "exclude barter offers" on the top
yeah it was more like i was not clicking the right button rather than clicking the wrong one
my stash is sorted i just simply do not have enough space
also i have too much food but dont want to buy a food box and also don't want to get rid of the food
turn things you can buy into $$
money takes up very little space
and work your way towards stash lvl 2
i have eod
as I remember most people live pretty comfy with stash 2 or 3
oop
i kinda want 24 extra lines
see line and stash space is like WHAT THEY SHOULD SELL FOR MONEY
but really I could live on stash 2
limited stash adds creativity and such
well its less required now because you can select on the character
i have to try less. not little, but less
also bag stacking is so nice now because i can just choose the smallest bag and i never have to open my backpack stack
yeah see i suck
lol
i havent really set up loadouts yet and like they scare me because i think i'm going to spend too many roubles that i dont have loading one
lol
pretty sure they're lying btw
best nvg and heaset is either airframe, wendy exfil, or FAST MT
honable mentions to TC 800, neosteel, bastion, and caiman
pretty much none of them come with ears by default though
a bunch have options to put a gear piece on them that has ears
it's like building a gun preset though, you can say yes and no per-item
is there a way to zoom out on the modding screen?
not really
on bigger guns, you kinda have to rotate the weapon
okay what about changing the fire rate/scope within the stash, is that possible?
im assuming you mean mode and not rate, but no you need to be in raid
you mean like changing the setting it's on?
yeah, mode
nope, sorry
dang. i hate having to switch it everytime i pick it up in the range
that's quite lame
yea tis a lil annoying
Pve friends anyone?!? Dont matter level, prefer NA servers for better connection but dont really matter just want pve gaming buddies
Input the same message in all chats hoping to see wat turns out
that would be called spam, careful
anyone tryna come play with me and help me get some loot and good guns and get to lvl 15
its not much if you just fill it w ranodm stuff so make sure u sell everything u dont use
pls ANYONE can help me and make money and get gear
I can tell you but cant really help you
Money you can scav like streets or lighthouse, lighthouse is much easier
And for lighthouse once you learn how to kill the rogues you also get gear its not the best but usable enough
streets is much easier to print money wym
not as fast plus hes like level 2
whats the best gun to run when just starting
sks if you get ammo with 30 pen or better, mp5 with starting ammo, aks-74u with PS or better ammo, and aug a1 with m855 or better
thanks i remeber with like smgs back when i tried playing u were supposed to shoot the legs is that still a thing or nah
What does slow lean do to Raider/Rogue AI?
they dont see u
but i think its been fixed
Do they only detect thorax but can look at my arm and other body parts?
if you have less than 30 pen aiming for legs is the best option
they try to see the first part of you they spot
which at least used to be your arm
can someone maybe carry me ?
hey guys, yesterday I was doing shoreline, came along the main road, I cleared scavs at crane and gas station, wanted to extract at tunnel.
As soon as I hit the roadblock at tunnel, scavs started pouring in from village side, killed 7 of them, but they didn't stop coming at me and killed me.
According to the maps, there shouldn't be any, is that some random occurence or usual and the map is missing this info?
(it was a night time raid, and they didnt look anything special, just normal scavs as far as I can tell)
tunnel extract tends to have a lot of scavs spawn around the hills there for some reason
alrighty, good to know, thanks ❤️
Scav army, sometimes happens, they just dont stop spawning, you can easily kill 20+, often happens at green screen on customs
It havent happened me at tunnel, but had the same at the cottages
nice, thank you. Is there any indication of it I should look out for?
You see a lot of scavs spawning
makes sense
Sometimes its better to run away, because they will drain your ammo
yeah, if I knew they were endless, I would've 😄
do you guys have any specific places to get iskra? been to the usec camp on woods 5 times, still didnt find any
I usually just craft em in hideout
Usec camp doesnt really spawn iskra it has MREs intead, try the car extract village
anyone know what the changes were for lightkeeper access? did they reduce the grind? I am close but didnt finish them
thanks, will give it a try
Assassment pt1 and 3 were made easier, less kills and less item to be handed in
thanks good sir
And i think the removed 3 quests from the requriments
But thats not confirmed
- Living High is Not a Crime 2
- Punisher 5
- Tarkov Shooter 7
According to someone who got the network provider unlocked without all the quests finished
canb someone help em? I don't know what quests I'm missing for kappa
decon service too
Crisis unlocked lvl 48 ? Ereaser 2 ?
blood of war, sew it good etc
Holy just checked wiki, they took away all the cancer quests
You can unlock network provider in 2 weeks now
Always the ereaser 2
it was the first one tbf XD
Lmao, Gluckoz shouldnt be that hatd
ye his guards rush my ass too hard
and I forgor it was a kappa requierement
thought I jsut needed long road
um, would anyone be willing to help a newbie timmy get jaegers note in woods? its impossible late wipe, just started getting into EFT
Late wipe its much easier than early wipe, noone goes there nowdays
im always getting one tapped by snipers on top of cliffs or threw the trees
Early wipe that area is actually cursed
i barely make it half way there before i get sniped by what my friend called the best snipe in the game lmao
using 61 or 62's
I did it at night, didnt see a person around
must be nice lmao
ill give it a try
also it was yesterday, i've just started this week too
tried once yesterday after getting better loot just for me and my friend to get sniped by someone on top of a cliff you cant see by one of the best ammos in the game
was it daytime?
yeah
try night then
you think nigh time would be better?
only people who play night time woods are shturman farmers so probably alot better
I always go woods nighttime, been there like 6-8times and only 2x ran into enemy
ill give it a try
lol, just loaded in to a woods daytime with scav, got sniped at the lake 2seconds after spawn 😄
told you HAHA
hopefully i have better luck at night lol
Where can i find a good m4 build
good, meta or affordable ?
good/meta
honestly recoil now is in a good place, so you dont really need meta
you can use most parts for a decent build
alright ill experiment around
https://db4tarkov.com/gun has build
Arena, Gun Builder, Preset Builder, Flea Market, Quest Trader, Item To Keep, Interactive Map, Craft, Barter and more ...
betski i appreciate it
LF1 to help me with streets, experienced player but haven't ran that map, and practice mode isn't helping -.- PVE, NAE, LVL 36, need help please I'd even pay you 😭 Dm for fastest response!
The area itself should be relatively empty since there's no loot of note there. Only POI in the vicinity being ZB 16.
That said, Woods at this point in the wipe is infested with thermal scopes, especially at night.
does anyone know how I can complete this quest?
the top part
ive done everything but the top
I have collected the secure folder and handed it in but it hasn't completed the task?
@unique mantle worked mate cheers I had to recollect it
Peak tarkov moment
typical haha
Does anyone know whether wearing a mask (armour class 2) under a face shield (armour class 3) make any sense at all? Or does only the higher class item covering a particular body spot matter?
It's not a question whether using this armour class makes sense at all, assume it's just against scavs or whatever. I just wonder if this is 100% redundant, or if the other item makes sense (save for a situation in which one decides to put a damaged face shield up, when the mask can work as a back-up).
They do stack. When a bullet penetrates something, it loses some dmg and pen values. So the mask could save you. Although, im not sure about how much pen/dmg it loses.
It’d help but maybe like one bullet or 2 bullets if your lucky
On Savs a lot more helpful though cause they have low pen armor
And the bullet has to be like around 30ish pen. 40 will definitely go through both easily
it depends on the pen value compared to the armor value, the closer they are the more stat it loses
Thank you. I wondered if penetrating one item would work like penetrating elements of terrain. Thought that maybe this mechanic only applied to the latter.
I imagine. Thanks, guys.
The face shield saved my PMC yesterday for sure, but not sure if the mask mattered in that moment. 😄
nah death shadow stops every bullet if you're not the one using it
hello there. i am really struggling with extract, i don't know the maps other than that i am doing pretty good at shooting. i can learn the maps in offline mode, but i don't want to put 200hrs in just offline mode
use maps
what maps?
Use the wiki or mapgenie and offline mode
What a deal with new container? Is it tied to arena quests/rep or just some trading?
what new container? kappa? or you mean Gamma
Theta one in info channel?
how do you get this gun to fire 800 rpm and not be just single fire?
for the quest gunsmith 1 what do i modify the m-133 with
or whatever the shotgun is
you google it and follow the guide
Look at wiki
it is always single fire, its just saying that the limit is 800 rpm
It’s a constant roll for chance to pen so it has to roll the chance for face mask, then the chance for the helmet
And then if you’ve got the glasses on that give you a chance to ricochet a round then it has to roll that, this late in the wipe though nearly everyone has ammo that will pen t5+ so it doesn’t really matter
Great Night Factory Run and the game decides to spawn Tagilla right in front of me
yo im doing gunsmith 1 and according to the wiki i have all the requirements
but its not completing the quest
Show me a screenshot of the gun
On the inspection menu
gun must be over 60 durability and then just compare the inspect view with wiki inspect view
he got it
ok
is this real or some error?
??
must be a wipe coming in June3
bro did not watch the stream
The next wipe in combination with the patch 0.15 has been announced for early August. This is subject to change. See ??wipedates for information on previous wipes
all bosses shoreline
what should i run im lvl 15 only prapor lvl 2
flechette/piranha/8.5 for pellet, .50 if you want slugs
what is this???
all bosses shoreline
so I have to kill all bosses to get this stuff?
yes
does everybody have it?
yeah
I think mine is glitched tho
supposed to look like this
yeah that makes more sense
how long is the quest going to be up?
thanks for the help :D
np
there will probably be a ??event command when we have more info
try that every few hrs i guess
so will they just run around the map like in a pack?
all at resort
am i high? wtf is this xd
all bosses at resort
wdym?
all the bosses are spawning on shoreline
I think, I just found the most basic Task
see above
Oh okay lol 😄
do i keep the achievements to the next wipe?
Hear me out dmr flir extract camp resort
I always troll around these new events and run w a squad that ruins ppls raids
🥺

dorm room marked key 314 is good right? just bought a 10/10 for 2 mil
you can probably flip that for 10x the price
maybe 5x t he price
New task, he will give u all the keys
Restart the game ig
nvm discovered the twitter post
"A new in-game quest given by Jaeger to eliminate all Bosses is available to players:
● All Bosses, including the Goons, spawn at the Health Resort on Shoreline with a 100% chance;
● Bosses also spawn at their standard locations with a lower chance;
● Player Scav cooldown has been reduced regardless of Fence reputation;
● All Bosses, excluding the Goons, are friendly to Scavs regardless of Fence reputation;
● All Bosses have GP Coins in their pockets."
So I reached level 15 and was wondering what would be the best armour to run this late into wipe. I have around 3 mil rubbles
do ppl not just help eachother on shoreline for the new quest ? .. just been 3 times i focus to the sanitorium i just get sniped from 250m+ from up there cause i spawn far
best armor regardless of cost?
LFG to run tasks on PVP would, its my first wipe still learning! https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/935947222909083648
what help are you referring to lmao?
you want people to not shoot you?
idk killing all the bosses
should be enouth loot for atleast 4 ppl
atleast
bro this community is toxic af not way your gonna get it done playing expecting that
armour rig that would be good to use at this stage of the wipe considering my money
some scav told me he needed pcbs i went in my bag he shot me in the head
i was a scav too
so no way anyone playin nice
Anyone know why my scav timer was 20 mins yesterday and is 3 mins today?
And aswell did they gift 2 free slots in stash? Mine increased somehow
Thx gang🤞🏻
Ana m2 or thor concealable are bang for buck, osprey protection best option really overall
You give up neck protection for a little lifhter and a little cheaper if you use the ana m2 or thor concealable
The osprey protection covers everywhere almost with good protection at an okay price, just heavier and a liiittle pricier
kirasa armor with monoclete plates
game has armor
game has guns
game has grenades
game has bullets
wtf I died
yeah ur human for sure bro
Excellent super budget option, imo I think the wipe has moved past lvl 2 soft armor though
ill always take the +1 PMC kill
mid-wipe was already past lvl 3 soft armor
why would anyone help anyone lmao
there is no reason to
Only one person can get the killing blow after all
THERE ARE MORE THAN ONE BOSS
sry for caps *
and it's easier to kill like 8 bosses as a team than solo
idk just normal thinking i think yall are too deep in the sauce
to understand basic human logic
Yeah, and everybody needs all of them killed by themselves
Tarkov is survival of the fittest and most cunning
simple
(KILLA, BITCOIN, GROUNDZERO, OBDOLBOS, THICC)
Somebody's a lil behind
indeed
Lol, hope they still loaded for you
they did
me when i just shoot you in the face and kill all the bosses myself :)
still wayting for 1 person to kill every single boss in 1 raid
and get all meaningfull loot
should be easy
by himself
they dont .?
idk in 4 runs didnt manage to get in resort once
without getting sniped from it
while i dont see shit up thbere
Classic tarkov glass problem
KILLA BITCOIN THICC GROUNDZERO OBDOLBOS
blud is so late
True true
They are all in 1 place in shoreline?
how do i check my current wipe time?
is it the "online" time?
i feel like that's way higher than i've put into this wipe
yeah, but that's not time spent in game
it is the amount of days since you created your profile this wipe
so if you started on wipe day, it will just say whenever wipe was
that is only tracked across your entire playtime
the account lifetime?
the "online" part
oh gotcha
so "online" is ingame time across wipes, account lifetime is time since creation
yep
and there's no way to see this wipe ig time
and account lifetime resets when you reset your profile
you could take a screenshot whenever you start a wipe
that's what I do to compare with my current hours 😄
oop. i didn't do that when i started lol
but I know I haven't put 275h into wipe in 11 days
i can't remember how much i put into the last two wipes i did
If a stim boosts your metabolism does that also get taken into account when reducing the duration of the debuffs it gives?
I think so
why does the silver badge stay at a constant 37k on the flea
if an item stays on the market with a fixed price this usually means that you can also sell it to a trader for basically the same price: trader sell price = market sell price
in this case its 37k to the therapist
what should i do first as a begginer? im kinda lost
just focus tasks
ah ok
Best thing you can do rn at the current time is, delete the game
Tbh it depends on your mindset and skillage.
ahh
play the game, get used to how mechanics work and find out where the extract points are for one map at a time by using offline mode and a map on a website
alr sounds good
also, have a look at "the tarkov handbook". It's a lil outdated here and there, but a bunch of good info
Ano way ur red
We lost a good one
I am still blue on the inside (I still have op role)

There are increased Flea market slots & there are no FIR restrictions on the flea market. A new quest is available from Jaeger to kill all the bosses which are a 100% spawn on Shoreline ( Quest : Hustle)
it's in august
so when a player scav shoots at me but misses and I kill him, still -0.1 karma, nice :/
man this system is frustrating sometimes
Yup u can bait ppl w it
Add me up of anyone is looking for pve friends, NA servers preferably but dont really matter, just looking for pve friends for anytype of gaming. Quests, looting, killing, dont matter, u want a pve friend add me up!!!!
can't see why would I do that, ban can see others being aholes 😄
the definition of fun is subjective 😄
i much rather find it pointless
well, I mean, I can see your point
Way of farming Scav rep too
Smooth do u drive a Volvo
yeah definitely makes sense now, just doesnt fit in my definition of fun, but can respect other's
anybody tryna help with tasks
can my friend without EOD play the Pve mode
obviously not. did you not read anything online
Not yet, pve mode expansion purchase should be coming in late June

Anyone got advice for leveling faster other than completing tasks?
Also, anyone feel like playing with me?
it's not exactly beginner friendly but killing the bosses in the event on shoreline is insane xp per raid
20-40k+ if you survive easily
To add to this watch the north mountain side for PMCs a lot of em chill up there for ez killing. Sometimes the roof as well. If you gonna kill the bosses easiest way is to lure them in and kill them while they are in a animation cause they got cracked head eyes aim best of luck
is it just me or is the client lagging a bit as in my stash hideout and shi like that
Whats up with the player scavs killing player scavs lately ? Got killed like that like 4times in row
Thats true but still I´v had a lots of fun yesterday night but today ppl are crazy
there is no scav rules ahaha
next wipe "im gonna hop on some pmc and kill other usecs"
currently playing jenga in stash. Anything I should do?
Where can I find Clin window cleaner ? I've been looking for a single one for 3 days constantly and haven't found one
If you arent on flee i find it on random desks and duffels
which stuff lmao
I need it FIR
ah yeah i find too much of it for some reason
I've looted at least 300 duffel bags now
And I've looted the entirety of streets like 15 times
can't find one
I dont get rid of stuff that im going to use in the future
god damn it i love it and a hate it lmao
Sell everything you can purchase from traders (except meta ammo that has a long cooldown between resets).
Remove magazines, pistol grips and 30mm scope mounts from weapons to shrink them in size, that MDR for example can be 5x1 slots instead of 5x3. The loose parts take up 5 squares by themselves for a gain of 5.
i find it every other match on woods in lumber
I'll try that in a sec
invest in some cases
Been breaking them down almost got everything in my stash lol
what kinds? i hvae 7.4m
ammo case and you should have gotten a injectors case from the codes
items case aswell
ammo case is fairly cheap, you can also craft it in the hideout
Specs? Did you recently upgrade anything?
maybe an ammo case and a few wallets lol
