Introduction

[tardy pawn]

Hi was just wondering when the AI are going to not be dog vomit and the game will be playable

Maybe it could help the 1.2/5 rating this game has

[undone drum]

we are players like you, how do we know?

Sounds like you wanna complain, maybe best to do it somewhere else

[edgy plover]

no one reviews a game on sites like that unless they're pissed lmao

[tardy pawn]

Sounds like you wanna be a furry, maybe best to not do that, but IG beastiality is legal wherever you are

[tardy pawn]

Sites like that? It's the only place Tarkov has reviewability, and it shows

[undone drum]

I am not a furry.
Are you mad scavs are keep killing you?

[tardy pawn]

pfp says otherwise

nah, scavs are ass, but if they'd fix the dogshit PMC AI that'd be great

[undone drum]

nah, its your weird fetish bro. Pfp is just a fox.

[tardy pawn]

Lmao. oh god the closet furry got me so good

[edgy plover]

Oh, dudes a PvE player
no wonder he's mad at life

[undone drum]

poor boy struggling tarkov PVE 😄

[edgy plover]

point and laugh at man that can't right hand peak

ooh, that hit a nerve eh?

always does

[prime sequoia]

Can any1 help with Easy Money part 1 rn?

[tired helm]

Why i get this error when i switch from stash?

[bold kernel]

[hot widget]

Hey, just coming back to the game after while! Killed some guy on woods that had this FiR svd, anyone know where something like this might spawn?

hope you guys like the awesome monitor pic

[fervent raft]

What map?

[hot widget]

woods

[fervent raft]

Hmm

No clue tbh, ive never seen it before

Maybe sthurman?

But it would be new

Oh wait was it at scav town? It might be from the hideout

[edgy plover]

prob arena key

[ripe bay]

Hi, is there a way to move QUEST ITEM to the stash on Marathon mode, same as normal items?

Ex. You get pocket watch on your marathon run and u want to send it 'to stash' on transit.
Is it possible?

[edgy plover]

no

[boreal moat]

Ive been 1 shot by partisan with no warning twice today how do i avoid him, and i have not camped or ratted at all

[elfin elm]

did you walk through a bush?

[tardy pawn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-CypbT3r_8

Most of these settings are absolutely life-changing, being able to see what, who, and where things are alone changes the experience entirely

[boreal moat]

Not at the time, and i never go afk or sit in a bush for more than 5 seconds

[elfin elm]

just walking throuhg a bush flags negative rep for him

just cus he's there though doesn't mean it was initially you that caused his appearance

[undone drum]

Do you see PMCs now in PVE?

[raw maple]

anything I can do to sync my arena and tarkov, ive been playing both for days and can move stuff between the games. However, my ref rep, level, and skills are all different

??sync

[red thistle]

Tarkov and Tarkov Arena levels/skills are synced, they might just take a bit of time to catch up with one another.

[bold kernel]

hey what's the point of headsets? I have a bunch of GSSh-01 Active Headsets but their description just says they're a part of a military gear set

[elfin elm]

they reduce ambient noise (except the gssh, lol), increase audio lvls, and EQ your sound

[civic quest]

they increase the range at which you can hear stuff like gunshots and steps

though the gssh just universally makes shit loud iirc

[elfin elm]

and a very mild eq

not very good, but cheap

the difference between no headphones, and even the cheapest pair

is like 20 meters of distance hearing footsteps

[hollow star]

What items should I be selling before I unlock flea market

[raw maple]

most streamer items go for around flee price to traders, use tarkov-market site to check prices (its not 100% accurate)

and find a checklist of what you need

[elfin elm]

anything you don't need for a task, hideout, or don't plan to use soon

there's also barter you could save items for if you wanted

but that's like a distant 4th concern you can often ignore

[plucky tangle]

how do i get through this door on streets it is bugged

i did

people said its possible but i tried a lot

[elfin elm]

you could open that door last wipe, so hopefully it'll get fixed

[plucky tangle]

nvm i found the right angle and got in

cant open the door tho

idk how they messed that up

[tardy pawn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-CypbT3r_8

Posting this once again to help people, it made an 800% difference in my game, especially the post FX settings having color in the world, changed my experience from 80's game to ray tracing level

[bold kernel]

GSSh also increases audio levels?

[elfin elm]

yep

[elfin elm]

several years late

[plucky tangle]

erm now i cant get out

[elfin elm]

careful with advertising too

[tardy pawn]

I'm new lol don't judge too harshly, just trying to help those new like me

[elfin elm]

keep trying, GL

[plucky tangle]

LOLLL

[tardy pawn]

the biggest thing that messed me up was the kinda grey-scale, I had a hard time picking people out of the noisy background visuals

[rustic void]

ant tips on which map i shall go for toolsets and hoses?

[undone drum]

interchange

[tardy pawn]

factory has two technical crates and 4 or so toolboxes

[rustic void]

really? didn't think about it as anything other than kiba+food

[versed valley]

Reserve or interchange

Reserve has a fuckton of toolboxes, its nuts, and quite a few crates too

[rustic void]

i know reserve better, which buildings in it are for this stuff?

[undone drum]

back of the mall is filled with stuff you need for Hideout. And you can avoid pvp, if you want too

[elfin elm]

spawns have been meh so far thise wipe though

[regal imp]

should i keep my RPD or sell it bc it takes up so much space ??

[rustic void]

i been seeing 0 valuable loot in streets when i went for money runs

spawn camped on reserve

[nova ivy]

do side ballistic plates do anything now?

[elfin elm]

yes

same thing they did before

[nova ivy]

oh I thought that the new thorax plates covered the whole thorax

[elfin elm]

you can see the hitbox for it in the video on BSG twitter

[elfin elm]

still doesn't cover side plates area

[nova ivy]

gotcha, thanks

[elfin elm]

#eft-announcements message

shows the coverage

[nova ivy]

found me a fort and wasnt sure if I should bother buying sides for it, now gonna go get stirrup kills with it and a maska

[rustic void]

lol, did i insta extract or what

screen says dead,
but still can transfer loot

[versed valley]

Most of them, especially south and east side of the map

[rustic void]

do you have the chess piece names? 🙂

how can my skav be dead after 0 seconds and at the same time be extracted from the raid and having the transfer window

[regal imp]

in my opinion theres the best places to loot with the building under the heli just loot the roof

building in the middle can spawn a GPU if u look on the stand things

[rustic void]

middle - as in black knight?

or white king

if white king - i know, it is empty mostly

you talking about the big hangar right?

[regal imp]

the white king, it can spawn gpus so just always check it

[regal imp]

yes

iv found 2 gpus there this wipe so far

just check the stand things and if u dont see a gpu just leave, u can get tetris and shit from there aswell

[rustic void]

this are my usual runs

black bishop is just the drop down room

since i have all extractions - i either go fence or mountain

[regal imp]

pretty much wat i do tbf, i just like the check white king for gpu

[rustic void]

(on scav)

[wary wasp]

Is postman pat quest bugged? I can't take the letter of the scav body....

[regal imp]

yeah same with me

[rustic void]

Can hoses spawn in the cabinets?

[formal hemlock]

will the transit quests be removed when the event is over? like the one at fence

[pallid ruin]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Drawer doesnt seem like it

[regal imp]

can i sell it or is it used for a task later on ??

[sick iron]

how do i sync up Arena and EFT to get xp to transfer over

[flat crest]

No because its not found in raid

[bold kernel]

Why cant i sell this gun?

[tight thunder]

durability too low, sell it fence instead

[hardy night]

got a question, does the pve mode have it's own quest line?

or it it still the pvp questline but they can do it on pve

[undone drum]

like pvp but it doesn´t wipe

[undone drum]

pvp and pve accounts are separate tho

[sturdy spade]

whenever i try to get into a raid and its creating loot pools it gets stuck to 100% and then afterwards its shows this error.... ive been trying 10x times now. and it keeps showing this error. Help me ?

[lost herald]

I'm not sure what information you're wanting me to see there regarding the amulet. I'm not able to put a single item in the circle and no items have ever been available via the drop-down. I'm not concerned about their value atm because I can't use it at all as far as I know

[sturdy spade]

i keep getting stuck at creating loot pools it gets stuck to 100% and then afterwards it says server connection lost.... ?? help me please

[undone drum]

what specs does your pc have?

[charred garden]

Hey guys, idk if this is like common knowledge or not but can i just cross the lightouse bridge without getting blown up or shot by Zyrachi?

[sturdy spade]

8gb ram, nvidia 1650, intel i5

[undone drum]

you can´t

[undone drum]

might be not enough ram

[charred garden]

how do i cross it then? Ive got the mark key and i wanna use it :(

[sturdy spade]

bro i paid 50 bucks for this game

my friend with 8gb ram can play fine

[undone drum]

did you checked the minimal requirements?

[pallid ruin]

unfortunately BSG offers no refunds and the specs they posted are dogshit, not much you can do here - a fresh windows install could help but thats on you whether you want to try it

[pallid ruin]

man the minimal requirements they say you need are pulled out of their ass, they're not even close to what you need to run it

here they are

[sturdy spade]

minimal 8gb

i have that and i still cant even load into a match

without getting this error

[pallid ruin]

you'll be lucky if you launch the game with requirements they posted

those are totally wrong

server connection lost is usually a network issue

[undone drum]

better sell. Its a quest line later in the game.

[sturdy spade]

internet is literally as fine as a wine....

[charred garden]

that is so depressing. Am i able to do a barter for a diff marked on flea?

[undone drum]

no

[pallid ruin]

quit the game, open the launcher, go to change region, sort by ping and select all sub100 - thats all i can tell you

if it still laggs out after this then you either got fat packet loss or its simply a pc issue

[undone drum]

i use a tool called pingpotter

[hoary cargo]

is there anyone from eu that would like to help a newbie in tarkov?

[undone drum]

what help do you need?

[charred garden]

i doubt the key would get bought on flea aswell 😔

[torn crystal]

Hi guys is there still no real fix for syncing arena level with tarkov ? I already tried checking integrity and clear cash on both games

[pallid ruin]

the apparent fix is playing 1 pvp raid, 1 arena raid, 1 pvp raid - thats what apparently fixes it, havent tried it myself though

[undone drum]

this page says 12GB Ram
but i would say 16GB is minimal
https://www.eft-ammo.com/wiki/escape-from-tarkov-system-requirements

[hoary cargo]

all the help that i can get xD im really new to tarkov. i understand some basic info but thats it

[pallid ruin]

the original site says 8gb :) https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/support/knowledge/68?utm_source=launcher&utm_medium=menu&utm_campaign=head&utm_term=expansions_link

[undone drum]

best check beginner guides on youtube and ask here specific questions

[pallid ruin]

even thought its pulled out of their ass since you need 16

[undone drum]

yeah

[hoary cargo]

👎

[pallid ruin]

already put a suggestion in #887656579221053440 to update it but it got deleted since i posted a link to their own website and "links arent allowed* in the suggestions

aka. they dont give a shit, no refunds, people buy the game and they cant run it

as long as the money flows its a w/e

[undone drum]

a lot of people who need handholding, few who handhold

[undone drum]

damn

[torn crystal]

Yea i also tried that but this only fixed the part to be able to transfer money from arena to eft but it didnt fixed the level part

[pallid ruin]

yeah im lvl9 on pvp rn and lvl2 on arena - aint synced and the apparent fix doesnt work for me, i'll personally just wait since i wont be able to play for a week because of work anyway

but the fact that its broken does suck for people who can indeed play

well it wasnt synced for me the whole previous wipe either

lvl 37 on pvp and again lvl2 on arena

for the whole goddamn wipe, idk whether it was meant to be synced or not but if it was then waiting wont help i can tell you that

[torn crystal]

Yea it sucks, yesterday it worked fine had no issues but today arena at level 16 and pvp 18.. well i guess we need to wait for a fix

[main kraken]

guys i was doing therapist's marathon and went from ground zero to streets , then from streets to labs and now im stuck in this in labs

[sick iron]

ill help you

[main kraken]

stuck at "preparing the game" with my friend

[sick iron]

oh i cant help you with that you just gotta wait

[main kraken]

u sure were not like loaded in and just dead ?

[sick iron]

idk but if you back out you lose your labs card and have to redue the task

[main kraken]

fuck man

ig we'll keep waiting

[icy terrace]

ill try this again since no one told me yesterday

how do u leave marathon im in the same spot where im going back and fourth where is the hideout exit?

[sick iron]

just take a normal extract

[icy terrace]

I didnt know u can do that lol i thought marathon mode only marathon extract was available that being the whole point lol okk thanks

[sick iron]

ya if you want to go to the next map you take a marathon extract but if you want to leave and head back to your stash you can just take a normal extract

[icy terrace]

thnx ❤️

[rain vapor]

if you go back to stash do you have to restart at ground zero or the map you extracted on?

[sick iron]

you have to restart at ground zero

[icy terrace]

me when game mechanic succ

[surreal pecan]

I made this, in case it helps someone on those virtex runs : https://imgur.com/a/escape-from-tarkov-lighthouse-chalet-loot-spawns-ksd78ca

[rustic void]

does stuff spawn on this?

[red rose]

Hello! im new to the game and would like if someone would be so nice to help me out a bit

[sick iron]

with what

[undone drum]

shoot your questions

[red rose]

i dont have like questions i just need help with like how to play the game and stuff

[scenic onyx]

new to this game ... anyone willing to help?

[sick iron]

you just gotta play and learn

[undone drum]

check out beginner guides on youtube

[sick iron]

and play a lot of scav raids

the learning curve of tarkov is very hard and it will take you a long time before you get good at the game

[placid grove]

Anyone need the fence marathon task doing? Hopping in as a trio could do with a few more

[fallow sapphire]

i have 2 ledx found in raid, but dont want to use them to upgrade the medstation, if i buy one not found in raid will it be the one used for its upgrade

?

[sick iron]

ya

you can buy stuff off the fle market and use it for your hideout

[torpid onyx]

how do i link arena and eft
bcs im lvl 19 on tarkov and 1 on arena

[sick iron]

they auto link but im having problems transfering xp to eft but i can transfer money

[versed valley]

Dont remember them at all

[odd sail]

is it worth investing all my money towards a scav junk box?

[real pond]

Maybe not all, keep a safety net maybe, but id say that the space it gives for quest/hideout items it can store its definitely worth the price.

[left hound]

so im getting back into the game, should i level up with arena and then play the base game? i hateeeee early game questing and grinding but i enjoy the game alot

but getting higher level and such with arena is valid right? do i have to do anything special to transfer level from arena

[tulip escarp]

Does anyone know whats going on with my rep? I have unheard of edition and all my rep is at 0

[red rose]

what is the sense behind the hideout

[icy terrace]

How the partisian karma works anyone figured it out?

[icy terrace]

craft stuff u need, craft op ammo, craft armor and other stuff and buffs.

the more u level up your hideout the better you get to use it. Some quests u can just craft what u need

[compact pulsar]

can i ask questions about drops here? I have no drops not showing up aafter 7 hours drops that wont open and drops that dont contain anything

[icy terrace]

they are bugged, just leave them in your stash and open in a later date

hopefully they will be able to fix it

[compact pulsar]

alright what about the ones not showing up just wait it out and they will appear twitch is showing 5 and 7 hours ago none of the rest took this long lol

[icy terrace]

i have some missing too but i think they not coming back lol

classic bsg fck up honestly

[compact pulsar]

mine are two legendary so i hope they show up but i have very few hours and already know that youre right prolly just anoter fck up lol

[icy terrace]

Yeah and usually this early into the wipe the legendary drops are very bad

[upper python]

whats the best way to improve in tarkov

[icy terrace]

play the game over and over again, take each death has a learning stone, think what went wrong and what u could do better in that specific situation.

literally my gameplay is the combination of all of my mistakes during my time playing this game

[upper python]

sounds good thanks

[dusky vessel]

Is there some limitations if you use the new marathon mode? Like can you still extract on other assigned points, or any other reason not to use it on every raid?

[astral glen]

Marathon must be done in order

If you use a regular extract you must start from Ground Zero again

[dusky vessel]

As in you start right away there after the extraction, or can you lick your wounds at the hideout after the marathon?

[tiny oxide]

why i'm getting random twitch drops? in day 1 i got 4 epic and nothing else and now i'm gettingi only commons

[versed valley]

Right away

[tiny oxide]

i'm now at 4/2 commons recived

[versed valley]

Take a grizzly in your ass, some food and a fuckton of ammo

[astral glen]

No, if you use an extract you will end the marathon and have to restart at Ground Zero

[dusky vessel]

Ok, that makes sense, so you have to reach the shoreline or labs and sucsessfully extract from there or you are dead?

[fervent raft]

Wdym

[versed valley]

You can only put away a small amount of stuff away for rubels

[fervent raft]

you can extract from any map with normal extracts

[versed valley]

You cant

[fervent raft]

while doing marathon

[versed valley]

Oh you can?

[fervent raft]

or you can transit to next

[wary pewter]

Do you know if you must bring a labs card in advance or is it just open if you get that far?

[versed valley]

Well mb

[fervent raft]

yeah ofc

[tiny oxide]

help 😭

[versed valley]

Must bring a card

[south tapir]

I want to do the fence quest on marathon for the weapon crate

[fervent raft]

i just did the task so i know

[astral glen]

You must have a Labs card to enter The Lab yes

[fervent raft]

correct

[dusky vessel]

I'll rephrase, is there any penalty to going to every raid in marathon mode, even if you are not planning to do any marathon stuff?

[wary pewter]

Gross but good to know

[fervent raft]

youll always start ground zero

[versed valley]

Oh you dont need to go labs for that quest even?

[fervent raft]

no you dont

[astral glen]

You can only play Ground Zero then

Unless you transit to Streets

[versed valley]

And there is no reason to do it even

Except tasks and extra challange

[dire dock]

anyone wanna help a timmy get the marathon quest for therapist

[fervent raft]

its fucking hard to help someone do that

[hollow vine]

guys i did marathon from ground zero to shoreline but i only got the 100k task done but no achievement?

[fervent raft]

you need to watch a video and try yourself

[dire dock]

i done it yesterday and forgot to hit the elevator to streets

[fervent raft]

thats because you have to go past labs to do it

[hollow vine]

so if i go back and do labs will it be done

[fervent raft]

no

[hollow vine]

or re do the whole thing

[fervent raft]

you have to go gz - streets - labs - streets

and then do the thing

[hollow vine]

fuck

[fervent raft]

ye

its fucking boring

[dire dock]

i tried to do it multiple times and got timed oyt on the way to labs

[dusky vessel]

So then only in the case that you are planning to go to ground zero it makes sense to put the marathon mode on without any "penalties". Is there any "penalties" to do it on every ground zero run, to keep the options open?

[fervent raft]

pretty much yeah

[dusky vessel]

Ok that clears it for me, thanks 🤘

[dire dock]

but if anyone has free time to run a marathon just lmk

[astral glen]

I think you misunderstand what it is still

It’s an event

You shouldn’t be doing marathon mode unless you intend to do the marathon

??event

[red thistle]

New game event “Marathon”:

• During the Marathon event, location transits will only be available in the corresponding game mode;
• Marathon is available only in PvP mode;
• Players will receive a unique achievement for completing the Marathon event;
• After the event is over, all location transits will become available in all raids.

[astral glen]

If you’re not attempting to do the event, there are zero reasons to play marathon mode

It’s just an event to introduce transits to the game, which will be available everywhere after the event has concluded

[fervent raft]

really?

so after the event you can transit from every raid

[astral glen]

Yes

Transits will be open on all locations

[fervent raft]

thats cool

[dusky vessel]

@astral glen what if: You are a newbie for who the things happening around you affect a lot more how things pan out than what you had in your mind before starting the raid, adding an additional escape route doesn't do you any harm if it isn't disincentivized by some game mechanic. But yeah, that's propably not what the devs had in mind when creating this new thingy.

[astral glen]

The Mira ave extract is literally 10 metres away

And this is an event

After the event is over

[dusky vessel]

yeah i know, havn't tried it yet :D

[astral glen]

Marathon mode won’t exist

Transits will just be available

But you asked about marathon mode

Not transits

And if you are a new player

How are you going to do your customs tasks?

You going to start on GZ and then Streets etc?

No you’re going to load into customs

Marathon mode is for the event

The marathon mode MUST be started from Ground Zero, if you extract through any exit other than the transit, your only option is to enter Ground Zero again

It is an event where you travel from one map to the next in order

[dusky vessel]

Well, that's why i asked and was informed that it starts every time in ground zero, so that's a disincentive if you want to go to customs, but not if you want to go to ground zero.

[lost herald]

Wow, I see now that you were trying to help. Never in a million UI design years would I think that you click the sacrifice button first. Drop-down, select items to sacrifice, click sacrifice is what makes sense. Thanks

[astral glen]

It still is, because if you take the transit as you said as a ‘last resort’ you are instantly placed into a Streets of Tarkov raid, no option to use the hideout

It is for the event, playing marathon mode when not actually doing the event is trolling yourself

It doesn’t give you an ‘extra extract’

It gives you a transit zone

[dusky vessel]

yeah, it could be used as a hail mary attempt to not go MIA, not something that i was planning as a strategy, but limiting your options before there is any reason to is silly, so i was wondering how it would be "penalised"

[astral glen]

It’s not a Hail Mary though, the actual extraction is literally 10-15 metres away from the transit, so why wouldn’t you just take that

The transit has a 1 minute timer you must wait

The Mira ave has a 5 second timer

Surely you would just take that and go to your hideout

Instead of standing in the open for one minute

To go to Streets

With no option to resupply

[dusky vessel]

Just because i like pointless arguments: What if someone has used the mira ave, isn't it one use, like the cop cars? Or if someone has looted the grenade. I had few in my stash before the wipe, because of the love of looting the deceased, i still extracted at the triage tent thingy.

[astral glen]

It’s not one use

You need a green flare but an unlimited number of extracts can be done

[dusky vessel]

ok cool, so if you have a spare green smoke in your back pocket the transit would be a bad move, in that spesific situation.

[astral glen]

And the mira avenue extract has a 100% chance to spawn a green flare right next to the extract on the dead scav

And the transit would be horrible, it’s not an extract, you literally instantly queue into a Streets of Tarkov raid

So all those quest items you just went for

You now have on your character on Streets

With less ammo than you would want

When you could have just taken the flare extract

And this is a pointless discussion even more so because marathon mode forces you to start on Ground Zero and if you don’t take the transit your only option after extracting is to once again play Ground Zero, the mode is specifically designed for the event, there are zero positives to playing it for a normal raid

[dusky vessel]

I have personally looted it without using the extract, so i give you that it's probably rare that it's gone, but i have done it myself, i'm probably not the only one that has done that. If i had seconds to run to the next extract, i would probably think that too bad that i didn't enable this second chance for the extremely unlikely situation that would be happening at that moment.

[astral glen]

It is faster to run to Emercom extract than it is to take the Transit, wait 10 minutes to load into Streets and then extract on Streets with less gear than you entered GZ with

Makes zero sense at all to do what you’re suggesting

[dusky vessel]

what do you think that i am suggesting?

[astral glen]

That if you have to play on Ground Zero that you could just play Marathon mode

And I’m explaining why that’s stupid

[lament crypt]

I have had no problems with previous wipes running tarkov but am now experiencing very slow load up times and lots of freezing and stutters any settings or fix recommendations ???

[dusky vessel]

I still don't understand how it's stupid, the other extracts and the whole raid works exactly the same, if i have understood correctly. So if that is correct the choises are 1: Don't use the marathon mode, everything was like it was before the event or 2: Use the mode and you have another way out, that you don't have to use. Are you claiming that there are literally zero possible situations where it's the most optimal thing to do in a bad situation. No green smoke, one black leg and no way to heal it, no time etc. Always and in every situation that's a suboptimal pivot if you are not doing the marathon tasks?

[lone nacelle]

how do i find people to run the full marathon with?

[astral glen]

You don’t have another way out, you have to sit in the transit zone for one minute, when that timer reaches zero you are placed into a Streets of Tarkov raid with no opportunity to heal, resupply meds or ammo.

You just move to the next location, it’s not an extract

Your leg would still be broken on Streets

and as I said, if you were on GZ, you’re more than likely tasking yea?

[dusky vessel]

The timer starts again and someone in reddit wrote that the transition healed their black head, i have no idea if that is true of course, i thought that a black head is death.

[astral glen]

All the tasks except burning rubber (irrelevant because it makes you use another extract anyway) requires you to either survive or extract with the items successfully, which a transit is not you doing that, you still have to then survive on streets to finish your task anyway. It’s actually hurting you more than helping in this made up scenario

[lone nacelle]

i had a black head for 80% of a streets run. just makes noise

but 1 hit & youre dead..as far as i remember

[astral glen]

It’s not ‘another option to extract’

As you’re suggesting that it is

It’s just queuing for a Streets of Tarkov raid

After the marathon event is over, transits will be useful, because they are available on all locations and you can drop some loot off and continue to a new map

But currently, it is a game mode, it is not just added into every raid, and the marathon must be started from ground zero

So if you want to play marathon, you must play ground zero first, and if you die or extract, you are back on ground zero

There is literally no upside to playing it other than if you are actively attempting the event

[humble shard]

guys ı have standart edition if ı will buy edge of darkness ı have to wipe my acc or like gamma etc or they will send me the things?

[tight shell]

wha??

[humble shard]

?

how what at standart edition for pouch there is 2x2 at edge of darkness pouch is 3x3 how ı can get it after buying

do ı need to wipe my accout or what

[astral glen]

You can’t buy edge of darkness anymore

But no you don’t need to wipe, it’s given to you in the mail in game

[humble shard]

unheard

edition mb

ok thanks

[sour kraken]

where to enable console commands

i forgot

[hardy night]

anyone know if I can do anything to be able to run streets I got a 2060 and a ryzen 7 2700x and 16gb RAM and the game won't physically let me go into streets it just crashes

[fervent raft]

upgrade pc is your only option

[dusty depot]

did you enable the special graphic settings for streets? it might help

[undone drum]

at least upgrade ram

[dusty depot]

but yeah 16GB of rams isnt just enough these times

[valid salmon]

Can you unlock acid green flare from therapist ?

[versed valley]

Not for some games

Dcs VR struggles hard even with 32gb

[dusty depot]

if you are playing games you need atleast 24GB

[rustic void]

so i remember that last wipe i suffered through setup, tried diff guns etc, but it was late wipe so understandable.
What do people use now for setup?

[dusty depot]

you mean as gun?

[rustic void]

gun/gun build

going to use flechette or piranha

[dusty depot]

doesnt it have to be shotgun of the MP kind?

[rustic void]

yes, but there is more then 1 mp shotgun

[dusty depot]

dont think it matters much, they can all be build like a sniper

[south tapir]

slug to the chest work fine for now

[dusty depot]

last wipe i had such shotgun from a PMC after i killed him.

[south tapir]

you can get 50bmg on the flea and armor isnt strong enough to tank it consistently

[upper tartan]

how do i get my tarkov arena lvl to sink with my normal?

[rustic void]

i am mostly - spray and pray - kind of player

shooting slugs on shotgun is more risky for me

[midnight oasis]

what scopes do you guys recommend

[tidal lagoon]

mp-155 stock except sight and extended mag

[rustic void]

hanx

[midnight oasis]

ive just unlocked flea and its pretty fun modifying all the guns and buying new ones

but idk what scope to main

where to even start tbh

[tidal lagoon]

as in the best ones in the game, razor / vudu 1-6x, tac30 or specterdb

[midnight oasis]

👍

[versed valley]

There is no point in maining scopes

[midnight oasis]

like you know what i mean

[versed valley]

Just try different ones and see what ya like

[midnight oasis]

to find my preferred one

[versed valley]

I really like the bravo4 scope

[midnight oasis]

will try them all out ty

[versed valley]

First watch a yt vid showing all the scopes, then pick out the ones that looked good for you

[midnight oasis]

👍

[dusky vessel]

@midnight oasis I started at a very late point of last wipe, like a month ago, so i don't know if this is relevant at this stage of the wipe or the rest of the eternity. I bartered these: M4A1 sopomod II and then salvaged this scope from it: the 1x/4x scope

[tidal lagoon]

posting those sites get u muted

[dusky vessel]

oh, sorry

[midnight oasis]

ty

why muted lmfao

[tidal lagoon]

they are against tos now

[white magnet]

what is?

[midnight oasis]

aha ok

also why does mk47 market just fluctuate so hard

i just bought one for 150k 10 mins ago now theyre 90k

[white magnet]

is rat scanner bannable?

[tidal lagoon]

grey zone not recommended

[dusky vessel]

i then sold the rest of the rifle and it was a lot cheaper than buying it from the flea market, that scope wasn't s great as razor and vudu, those are next level because of the scopes while zoomed in didn't take nearly as much of your peripheral vision, but it showed in the price.

[tidal lagoon]

actually i think its just straight against tos now

[undone drum]

supply and demand

[white magnet]

thanks

[midnight oasis]

yea no i get that but is the market always this volatile?

[undone drum]

you wanna a tool, that shows you what items you need?
Tarkov tracker was helpful for me

[undone drum]

yes

[midnight oasis]

okay ty

[white magnet]

its safe right?

[undone drum]

tarkov tracker is just a tool, where you put all the items you have in your stash my hand yourself

and it shows you what you need for quest, hideout and so on

[keen fossil]

just use a website like tarkov market if you wanna look at prices

[undone drum]

so yes, its safe

[white magnet]

ok yea i was just lloking for a fast way to see if a item was worth it

but tarkov tracker sounds nice

ill try it out

[undone drum]

just have a shortcut on your browser to tarkov market then

[midnight oasis]

is there any site or post for optimal ways to increase money spent on traders?

cause u lose so much just by buying and selling back or just selling them random stuff

[coral phoenix]

what ammo should i choose 7.62x39mm SP or 7.62x39mm HP?

[versed valley]

I just sell stuff to those traders first

That being peacekeeper then i go to skier, then jeager, then prapor and then therapist mechanic

[versed valley]

Both dogshit

Not even worth using the gun if thats all you can get

[coral phoenix]

ok

[versed valley]

At LL1 Uzi with PST or m822 is the best, but you will have to aim for da head

[velvet sparrow]

can I use an MP-133 that I bought from a trader to finish the Gunsmith-part 1 task?

[dusky vessel]

@velvet sparrow yeah

[velvet sparrow]

bet

[white magnet]

should i keep or sell gpu

[tidal lagoon]

keep

[white magnet]

👍

[torn crystal]

Im i dumb why cant i take it ??

I tried everything

[stiff cape]

in hand

right hand

i too, did not read all the wiki

🙏

its just in the right hand

two spots can spawn got mine in hand

night raid, and guy has nvg on

[rustic void]

just wiped the lobby first setup raid

4 shotgun kills and 1 ump kill

should have known that killing people with setup stuff early wipe is easy af

[stiff cape]

my first raid it wasnt in backpack was also night

[lone basin]

why am i lvl 1 in arena but 22 or 23 in eft?

all my other friends have linked characters

[stiff cape]

has to sync

[lone basin]

how do i do that? play a game?

[stiff cape]

cant remember ive heard a few things, sec

[stiff cape]

I cant confirm nor deny that just what was posted in here before

[lone basin]

ah ok

[paper patrol]

will i lose rep with other people if i turn chemical part 4 into therapist?

[torn crystal]

Well then i try it out on a night raid thanks, is there even a visual difference between night and "day" factory with that horrible lighting

[stiff cape]

Night Factory actually isnt that big of a deal anymore

just bring a flashlight which ya should always do anyways

theres tons of little lighting all over it now

[stiff cape]

ya, go look up on wiki diff rewards/next makeup quests

my suggestion is turn into Skier

[torn crystal]

Yea i was joking i realy hope they change the lighting on factory tho, you cant see shit rn

[stiff cape]

i can see perfectly fine

multiple kills with mosin on night

[paper patrol]

so if i turn it into skier i wont get -0.25 rep with prapor/therapist

[stiff cape]

you will, its about the rep makeup quests after

therapist/prapor have better makeup quests imo and the rewards early arent that big of a deal. more about not paying skier 1mill, unless youre rich I guess

[paper patrol]

ok i will look at all the makeup quests thank you

[stiff cape]

ive been makin good enough money may just not* do skier for first time

[slender dew]

I can run factory at night with no nods and see perfectly fine. If you want to see specs that make it happen I am happy to share

[midnight oasis]

whats best armor and helmet now?

i see theres a new armor plate system

whats something good i could get with just barely flea unlocked

[fringe violet]

can somebody help me with easy money part 1? customs part

[bitter nova]

hey guys im new to tarkov i wanna learn how to play the game any1 got some time to teach me a few things like mechanics and how to game works lol thanks in advance

[undone drum]

if you have any specific questions, ask away

[undone drum]

#pvp-lfg or just join one of the voice channels ans ask if you can tag along

[lament plover]

[quaint quiver]

[fresh parrot]

Why don’t the level I get from arena going to Tarkov

[lone basin]

i extracted from an eft raid and i was stuck in black screen, i restarted game and now its telling me to reconnect, i get server lost connection when i try to do so, am i safe to confirm leave without dying?

[fresh parrot]

[agile vale]

my arena and eft profiles seem to not be linked, do i need to do something

[fresh belfry]

i know its arena. is there a fix for this? day 2 and ive done integrity check on both games. 7,263 to transfer and i have 87,635.

[tidal lagoon]

[fresh belfry]

ive done 10+ matches. i havaent been able to xfer since day 2 of wipe

[tidal lagoon]

have u tried transferring with like a lot of rubles

Tarkov-market.com is my prefered site for that

as it'll tell you the prices of things on flea vs to traders

so you can choose to keep stuff to sell for more money, as well as tasks

[tardy pawn]

I love you

oh dang you need pro for PVE, still cool though

[edgy plover]

Does this mean I need both of these quest completed to get the quest unlocked?

[abstract harness]

when it says or it means a choice quest
so for that pair of quests you can turn in the item to either therapist or skier, and you can only complete one

[tacit cosmos]

I see, but do I need Secured Perimeter done as well?

yes

Alright, thanks!

[upper python]

as a new player what should i focus on doing

[solid ginkgo]

surviving raids from what ive heard

and learning maps

but im still brand new so maybe take it with a grain of salt lol

[edgy plover]

Tasking - it will guide you through the maps nicely

the main goal in tarkov is leveling your traders

And early on, unlocking the flea market at level 15

fastest way to level is tasks

So accept all of them, pull up a ground zero map, use the wiki as your guide, and try your best

[silk mountain]

join the sherpa discord. full access to 3d maps.

[edgy plover]

You don't need to join any discord for access to maps

also tarkov-market has some really neat maps
if you take a screenshot in-game and copy paste it in, it'll put a dot on the map where you are

[frozen swift]

Returning back to the game today, if anyone fancies giving me a hand. I’m UK

[vague orchid]

is this worth the 125k roubles?

[fervent raft]

no

[stiff cape]

^ fence prices rarely good

[vague orchid]

ah okay

[fervent raft]

you get destroyed guns with scav attachments

• you cant get bullets for a vepr really

[vague orchid]

ah oof

also how do you not die to a rat camping inside a bush

[dry cedar]

why the time to get my scav increase i always have 30min but now it increase to 50min

[woeful spruce]

that is mostly dependent on your scav karma, if you go around killing other scavs when playing as a scav your karma gets lowered and the timer gets longer, if youre nice to scavs, kill pmcs or use car extracts as pmc you can make your scav karma higher and get shorter timers

scav karma also has other efects on your gameplay, read up on it here:

!wiki scav karma

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Scavs#Scav_karma

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Scavs

For the bosses, see Bosses.
For the raiders, see Scav Raiders.
For the rogues, see Rogues.
Scavengers, known by their alias "Scavs", are a faction in Escape from Tarkov.

Scav karma

Scav karma is a system that was implemented to incentivise cooperation between player Scavs rather than shooting each other on sight. Different actions cause different changes to your karma level. Your current karma can be found as Fence trader reputation.
Notes:
• If you have +6 - +8 karma, penalties are calculated as if you had +6 karma. E.g. if you have +7 karma and kill a player Scav (-0.1), you will end up at +5.9.
• If you have over +8 karma, penalties are calculated with an additional penalty of -2. E.g. if you have 10 karma and kill a player Scav (-0.1), you will end up at +7.9.
Effects
Your Scav karma affects the following things:
• Fee amount for car extractions (e.g. "Dorms V-Ex" on Customs)
• The size of the BTR item extraction trunk on Streets of Tarkov and Woods
• Scav case turnaround time in the Hideout
• Fence's payout for items sold to him
• With a karma level of +6, players get access to an additional sales tab on Fence that offers a 30% discount
• Scav game mode cooldown
• The amount of available extractions in the Scav game mode
• The quality of your gear set in the Scav game mode
• The chance that AI-Scavs follow the player's voice commands (Follow me, stop etc.) in the Scav game mode
• With a very high karma level (6+), AI-Scavs will support player Scavs by attacking their targets and Scav bosses will be considered allies
• With a very low karma level (-5), AI-Scavs will attack the player on sight
The effects mentioned above change every whole number (+1, -4 etc.).…

[dry cedar]

ok thx u

[wet solar]

is m556a1 the best ammo assault class can buy for 556?

[woeful spruce]

Is this an arena question?

[wet solar]

yes

[woeful spruce]

Ah the idk i dont have it

[still thunder]

Anyone experienced this? Leveled arena to 6 and it synced in both EFT and Arena. Came back after like 4 days and Arena is lvl6 but EFT is lvl4?? I’ve gone down somehow

[tender void]

Wait so as a scav.... in Ground Zero, do the other scavs shoot at you?

[still thunder]

Think it’s based on scav karma or due to you shooting first. Haven’t played in a while

[tender void]

I shot nothing first, scav karma is .66, and I went to loot a random chest nearby, then someone popped up and just shot me. this is PVE mode

[still thunder]

Oh. Maybe it’s a scav player AI?

If that’s a thing

[tender void]

No idea. How would you know

[woeful spruce]

In pve mode? You sure that was not an ai pmc?

[cloud canopy]

What do GP coins do/how can i sell them?

[elfin elm]

boss guards do

[woeful spruce]

You can trade them at the trader Ref for items, you can also earn them by playing tarkov arena and transfer to regular tarkob

[elfin elm]

only PvP though, not on PvE atm

[cloud canopy]

Ooohhhh ok that explain why i could sell them in PVP hahaa thanks man

[cloud canopy]

Ahhhh ok bet thanks man

[elfin elm]

ref is the guy that gives a shit about GP coins

[cloud canopy]

How do i unlock him?

[elfin elm]

better to use them for his barters than just selling

[elfin elm]

easy money part 1

[woeful spruce]

Very early skier task

[cloud canopy]

Noted

[cloud canopy]

Ahhh ok beettt tysm man

[cloud canopy]

Beetttt tysm man

[elfin elm]

pick up a paper magazine on woods, post it at customs

so you have to survive a woods raid with the item, and at least long enough into the customs raid to post the item

[cloud canopy]

Ahhhh gotchu, il try and remember that hahaa tysmmm man🙏

[elfin elm]

👍

[fringe violet]

I got lucky yesterday and there was nobody in USEC and all the way to extract and then spawned next to old gas and there was nobody around fortress or on the way to extract

[elfin elm]

pretty lucky

this marks the second wipe I have literally stuck past people while they were in fortress

and still managed to post fine

[fringe violet]

this is my first wipe

[elfin elm]

ref has only been here two wipes technically

lol

[fringe violet]

I only menaged to kill 2 pmcs and they were both lagging out

[elfin elm]

still a start

[faint sail]

i used to live in US, i moved to Taiwan, do i need to purchase the region change bundle? or do i just need to select asia servers?

[stiff rivet]

You should be good, the regions should be eu, CIS and other (anywhere else). Shouldn't have to buy any bundle

[fringe violet]

Can somebody help me complete Saving the mole? I just need to find the scientist and get the hardrive

but I just cant do it alone cuz GZ is a nightmare

[vague orchid]

is the M700 any good?

[woeful spruce]

Yea ita pretty good but you dont have acess to any good ammo or scopes for it for quite some time

[vague orchid]

oh nice I got one with a scope on it from a scav run

[woeful spruce]

If its got bcp fmj for example then thats great and use it, make sure to repair it if you got it from a scav, scav weapons have shit durability and that really afects long range guns like bolt action rifles

[vague orchid]

also I got a PKM 100 round belt box

do I save selling that that for when I get acess to the flea market?

[woeful spruce]

Waste of space

[vague orchid]

So sell it then gotcha

[unique tree]

Hello guys is it a bug that my stats like endurance and my lvl isnt syncing up to my eft (Arena)

[undone drum]

It just takes time

[unique tree]

u know how long bec i left my pc on throughout the night? like aprox?

[undone drum]

I dont know

[unique tree]

ok thanks

[plucky tangle]

this fucking scav took the fully loaded backpack off the pmc i killed

ai scav

why do they do that bruh

annoying as shit they are programmed to steal your loot

[quick lotus]

looking for a complete noob to teach him not to be a rat

[vague orchid]

is there a website that will show you what each sight profile looks like?

[midnight oasis]

is there any way to make the menus fucking faster

the menu is literally unplayable every time i switch from flea to character i gotta wait like 2-3 seconds

or under my flea offers when i cancelled sale

[woeful spruce]

Idk about websites but on the sherpahub server #sherpa-info theres a channel with screenshots of most optics in the game with and without nvgs

[midnight oasis]

it still says its up and i can only put 2 things up on flea

it says 2/4 under my offers yet im not selling anythign

[woeful spruce]

Theres a cooldown after taking stuff down from flea to put it up again

[undone drum]

What are your PC specs?

[midnight oasis]

yea but its been half an hour

[midnight oasis]

2060 i7 8700 32gb ram

game runs perfectly no problem

menus are killing me tho

[undone drum]

Thats not the issue then

[still thunder]

How to fix syncing. devs not saying a word?

[scenic lake]

i cant pickup the postman pat letter

i was looking straight at it but simply couldnt pick it up

i tried difrent angles for few minutes but just coulnd pick it up

any ideas?

nvm i just tried it on offline and i picked it up

but for some reason i couldnt do that before lol

[tawdry flare]

LF someone to help me do the fence marathon task

[stiff cape]

#pvp-lfg

[glass ginkgo]

Why cant i crouch + aim? When i crouch then aim my character stands up

[stiff cape]

binds bad

[tight shell]

why do the al ak mags say they hold 10 rounds?

[woeful spruce]

Thats probably because they do

[tight shell]

but they look like the 30 round mags tho

[woeful spruce]

Yea, russians have a restriction that civilians get to have aks with 10 rounders only so many civilian companies make 10 round mags that look like 30 rounders to look cooler while complying to the law

So these 10 roynders are civilian mags, scavs often have them, prapor sells 30 rounders. I think at lvl 2 though

You can buy 20 rounders at skier or something like that

[plucky tangle]

whats better comtac v or 4

[woeful spruce]

Headsets vompletly changed this wipe, i dont think anyone has done enough testing to say, you just gotta try them yourself and compare

[midnight locust]

I used a V earlier, also had a sordin. Swapped between the two listening to scavs walk around. The V picked up footsteps further away, but had more background noise. Sordins were clean audio

[stiff cape]

night doesnt make a difference fyi

verified multiple times

[undone drum]

really? Was reading it here

[stiff cape]

it was wrong

[undone drum]

deleting it then

[stiff cape]

🫡

[undone drum]

thanks!

[indigo kayak]

where is the transtion on shoreline? i cant find it online

[pearl copper]

shoreline is that final part of the transit

[indigo kayak]

oh okay

[thorny glen]

when do I unlock tasks for peacekeeper? I heard I need to level him up for beta case

[scenic lake]

You need to complete friend from the west pt1 and pt2

you get that quest from skier

[scenic lake]

but to get him to lvl 2 you dont have to do any tasks

[thorny glen]

okay i have pt 1. I can also sell things and buy things to level him yeah? Thanks btw 🙂

[edgy plover]

You have to do 3 things to level him up
Be a certain level - 13
Have a certain amount of rep - 0
Transact money between you two - 11k

[pearl copper]

yes, If you have extra cash, just use them to buy USD since he has a lot of good attachments that you would need to spend USD down later the road anyway

[edgy plover]

^Yea buy dollars to get his money spent up

[thorny glen]

daaaamn yall are super helpful I wish I knew about this discord 6 days ago XD

[edgy plover]

game is brutal for new players

[thorny glen]

[edgy plover]

It's crazy rewarding

[neat timber]

you might need an upgrade to play

[neat timber]

srry i have 8gb

[edgy plover]

[neat timber]

😦

[edgy plover]

8gb you might be able to run factory

but those specs are not gonna work for most maps

[neat timber]

but i dont know how to upgrade a pc properly

[edgy plover]

use PC part picker
loads of youtube videos
put a theoretical upgrade together and come back to this channel and ask if it will work

people here will tell you

[neat timber]

[edgy plover]
