Thanks to gigabeef here is a mostly complete guide on general usefulness of a headset. Higher = better https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521620522304405504/1332355162802622485/image.png?ex=6794f3f0&is=6793a270&hm=b3e1104e4eec2903720ef602294f9e685327b4942ba6cbdd76bbded336bf6d4f&

[undone drum]

Ur lighthouse enjoyer? Nice

[spring laurel]

Ha no.

I only know it because of PVE questing

Im a ground zero/customs/factory player

[undone drum]

My main map

[spring laurel]

Its so BAD tho

Its like 70% empty space

Brb

[undone drum]

Once i learned the timings and path of others, it became enjoyable

[twilit lance]

i did it guys, this quest took me like 10 attempts, either forgetting flares, dieing to bullshit, dieing to fair pvp etc..

sheesh

[jagged crystal]

yo is there like any way at all to change my account name, lowkey got blessed with an unfortunate randomized name

[spring laurel]

Settings > big box with your name at the top

Should be in the first tab

[jagged crystal]

to change the name on the launcher?

[solar pond]

[woeful mortar]

HOLY SHIT I GOT 1 I was doing a scav run and found a scav that kept walking on barb wire, I walked up to him and dropped a bandage but he ignored it and went down stairs to look a crate and body, I just sat there waiting and he died and had 1 on him

That scav looked deep in my eyes and said "My time has come and know you need this."

Then I killed another scav cuz he started looting my ground cache, sadly no Fuel

[undone drum]

What an awesome story

[wise knot]

Awesome story i decided to scav for the first time in a while found 2 gpus on interchange and got extract camped… by a player scav 💔

[potent jasper]

red bag at transits sends loot to stash if so when do i get it?

[sharp moth]

BRO I do I interact with the btr?

[patent wadi]

You need to go near the door and press F to enter

[sharp moth]

Ik but when I’m in how do I talk to the driver

[patent wadi]

You should have a list of options, use mouse scroll to switch between options

[sharp moth]

Alr

[primal niche]

Newer player here, anyone willing to run a Ground Zero?

[fervent sapphire]

ill be down in about 20ish min

[blissful token]

just got to the flee and im trying to put a build together when i go to find parts more than half of the parts show up as not available those that mean there is no listing for said items or what?

[woeful mortar]

Note to self Scav runs tonight have given me 1 dry fuel each run

I gotta do 1 more tomorrow hopfully and find the last one

[patent wadi]

You're likely viewing trader item, you have to fiddle with the filters to see the market offers

[fervent sapphire]

[blissful token]

i did as you said and put any on the filter to see player and trader items but still its not everything '

[patent wadi]

Then the items wouldn't be on the flea, try to switch them for other parts

[sharp moth]

What’s the best mk47 build?

[midnight loom]

is green labs card even good, opened it 4 times and got jack shit

[tidal lagoon]

it was pretty good start of wipe but think they nerfed it a bit ago so now its mid/shit again

[midnight loom]

whats better than it for around the same price or cheaper?

[tidal lagoon]

if ure getting cards id go with yellow ofc, then red and violet

yellow is the best card and is only 200-300k

[midnight loom]

yeah i got yellow and it has been great

[tidal lagoon]

violet is next up id say ull prolly make profit i think

[midnight loom]

what does violet give you?

[tidal lagoon]

lots of valuables, weapon mods

[midnight loom]

w

[tidal lagoon]

can get ledx etc

red id say is 3rd

im not sure if u make profit or not price is like 3 mil i think but i got like 2 gpus in 3-4 openings

sadly gpus are very low price this wipe

but a LOT of good ammo in there too and valuable spawns

i dont think id bother with any other cards

[blissful token]

ive got thermals that sell for 19 million and cant put them on sale because of the fee. Feels bad.

[tidal lagoon]

how much is the fee

assuming u got t7s i dont think anyone is buying them for that much

[blissful token]

yeah its t7s and its almoas like 6 milli

[tidal lagoon]

yea no one is buying them for 19 mil

even the trader is cheaper

id say more around 3-5 mil still then i think ure lucky to have them sold

[fervent sapphire]

anyone need a hand with anything?

[sharp moth]

What’s the best ammo for 7.62x39

[tiny stag]

hey guys I'm on woods at old sawmill waiting for the BTR, at which time in the raid should I stop waiting and just go next?

[grand pelican]

bp, you can make it after completing intimidator. MAI AP is the best round but its pretty much impossible to get.

[warm barn]

how do i play as a scav

[noble pelican]

Yes, I've been trying for over 3 weeks now on my Live email account and never receive any emails from them. BSG's email verification server(s) are having issues as usual, and several emails back and forth to BSG support has done nothing. They always blame the end-user and your email settings, not their own stuff.

[wispy stratus]

PLEASE HELP. 1080p low settings i still cannot reach 60fps pls help

[fervent sapphire]

whats your pc specs

if they are the best then thats normal tbh

[wispy stratus]

ryzen 3700x rtx 3070

32 gb dddr 4

this wipe for some reason. My gpu is also under used for some reason

60 deg under load is way to low

other games seem ok

[tidal lagoon]

performance is in general worse this wipe

[fervent sapphire]

it could be your cpu tbh

[tidal lagoon]

game is cpu focused

[wispy stratus]

yes but 1080p should crack 60ffps

even my cpu is not working too hard

[fervent sapphire]

i had a 3060 with a ryzen 7 3700 and would get like 50ish fps

upgraded to a ryzen 7 5800xt and got like 75ish

[wispy stratus]

intersting

[tidal lagoon]

what maps are u not reaching 60 fps on?

[wispy stratus]

none

[fervent sapphire]

but i have a ryzen 9 now with a 4070 and on high 1080p i get like 90-100 depending on the map

[tidal lagoon]

so u are below 60 fps on all maps?

[wispy stratus]

i used to play 2k med to high in past wipes. gpu would be at 99%

at 84deg

[tidal lagoon]

if so then yea thats kinda cooked

[wispy stratus]

noiw it barely gets over 55deg

cooked is correct

[tidal lagoon]

how do u fix it tho? no fucking clue

[wispy stratus]

i play swat and it is fine

im very frutrated

i even went to 720p low settings

didnt hit 60 lol

[fervent sapphire]

[undone drum]

If you can click on name and report it = player

[undone drum]

xmp for ram activated in bios?

[fervent sapphire]

like this is a scav. you cant click the little profile icon next to the name, however if its a real player you can click on the icon and view them

[undone drum]

killed by officers bacon 🫡

[fervent sapphire]

also at the end of the raid or when you die in one of the end raid screens itll show you a list of all PMC's you killed and scavs

[pearl ether]

[dreamy veldt]

I'm going crazy trying to find the last dry fuel for heating lvl2 in the hideout. Anyone have an idea where they're likely to spawn?

[tranquil musk]

If you dont have arena you dont need to do that quest

[silver falcon]

Even if its part of easy money p1?

[tranquil musk]

If you talking about the task to loacte the poster on woods and put it on customs than yes you dont need to do this

[silver falcon]

Oh ok thx

[neat zealot]

how are people getting all this money on here. i can never make more than a couple hundred k in a scav run

[silver falcon]

But i still need to go there because i have the "Search Mission" Quest
Or can i just go there as a scav

[golden pine]

found alot in duffle bags and scav pockets

[tidal lagoon]

pmc

[silver falcon]

Can someone please help me with my quest then?

[toxic zinc]

Duffle bags, Scav Body and Drawers are my goto

you find a lot of intel items that are worth a lot and keys

[lusty rose]

Does repairing armor and weapons through prapor increase skills, or do i need a repair kit

[tidal lagoon]

repair kits

[lusty rose]

Cheers mate

[alpine grove]

whats the best server for me having a quite and peaceful raid (dubai?)

[neat zealot]

can someone explain to me how i have a perfectly lined up shot with a perfect zero and its missing?

[hidden raptor]

aim lower

[alpine grove]

some weapons arent perfectly accurate like the vpo

it tends to miss after 100 yards

[neat zealot]

it was a mosin snipr guy is standing still at what i ranged to be 150 beforehand. i zero for 150 put it on his head and whiff

so then i started blasting at him running and hit him in the body but didnt kill him. shit is infuriating

[rancid steeple]

Lookin to help some new people out, shoot me a dm

[subtle bay]

anyone got the factory keycard? tryna do the quest

[strong barn]

MOA of the gun, it can just whiff because the guns accuracy rating
the MOA is like a cone of 'fire' where the bullet can land
you can aim at any given point, and the bullet can land within 1 inch, 2 inchs, 5 inchs or some other number of that aimpoint because MOA.

[soft zealot]

[agile wyvern]

So what containers do lightbulbs spawn in? The only lightbulbs I've found in like 2 weeks have been on PMCs or player scavs

[undone drum]

checked tarkov wiki?

[agile wyvern]

yeah, jackets/filing cabinets/duffels that sort of thing

I just wanted to make sure that was correct, I have not found a single one in a while

[undone drum]

wiki is usually the most up to date source

they can also spawn as loose loot on electro spawns

[agile wyvern]

Thanks, will look for where electrical stuff spawns

[kindred grotto]

try the scav base on shoreline

[agile wyvern]

Will do, I still have a ton of quests on customs though, any spots there you'd recommend?

[true dove]

I have a problem where I'm left looking at jaeger's portrait for 30 minutes every time I open the trader's tab. How can I fix this?

[kindred grotto]

the new area or next to zb11

[toxic zinc]

guys ehm

[barren remnant]

can anyone help me whith easy money part 1

[dry flint]

Thats an issue with the Mbus irons and that burris red dot. Other iron sights work fine with it.

You can just remove the irons and it should give a good sightline.

[toxic zinc]

[soft zealot]

[primal rock]

??sherpa

[red thistle]

Sherpas are players who help beginners study the main game features and improve their skills to survive the harsh Tarkov environment. This difficult and honorable task falls on the shoulders of the most friendly, patient, and, of course, experienced Tarkov citizens.

Sherpas are volunteers who dedicate their time not only by teaching others but also studying Tarkov themselves, adding to their knowledge of the game. Selfless aid to new players greatly contributes to the growth of the Escape from Tarkov community.
When teaching beginners, Sherpas rely on their preferences in the game: location, weapons, equipment, tactical moves, and their unique gaming experience.

[urban ravine]

is any1 able to help me do the supply task for therapist idk how to navigate woods

[tacit star]

[patent wadi]

You interacted with a transit you have to exit through the transit now

[tacit star]

[edgy plover]

Just alt-f4 when you hit the load screen

It acts like an extract

I do it all the time

[tacit star]

[edgy plover]

No that’s too late

[tacit star]

damn

[midnight loom]

yo whats the best things to put into cultist circle for chances to get crazy shit like bitcoin, redrebel, labs cards, etc...

[edgy plover]

Max you can get is a 14 hour
400k value or more guarantees it

[midnight loom]

ive been putting in 2 sv-98 from jaeger and a kedr-b from prapor and reaching 14 hour but ive only been getting labs Managers office keys and weapon testing keys

[normal topaz]

what hjeadphones can i wear with these ear flaps cause i bought every headphone in the game and it no worky

[midnight loom]

just bad luck?

[topaz forge]

you just answered your own question

its frustrating that bsg adds these restrictions though, i hope they add headphones that work with those ear protection mods

[edgy plover]

Do you have to buy two subs to get the hideout shit

[normal topaz]

yeah its only this wipe

last wipe i was able to wear m32s

[topaz forge]

ye

i bought the whole thing too and was upset when i couldnt put any headphones on

i love the chops so much

[rocky zealot]

I thought the RAC and the similar style Compact 5s worked

[topaz forge]

RAC replaces the ear protection

[quiet island]

yo this scope is cool as fuck, how do I get it

[unkempt egret]

Buriss fastfire, Peacekeeper 1, needs a base plate to mount it

[quiet island]

I was joking lol

[solar pond]

Does anybody have a 60 round AK 74U mag that I can have?

[sharp moth]

[undone drum]

interchange back of oli

[desert flare]

anyone know if ash 12 gets ps12b in arena?

[wise knot]

Depends on class but im sure you could do it but it would probably just takes up a shit ton of your build score or whatever its called

[kindred grotto]

assault

[pearl copper]

reserve hermetic bunker, get the keys down there, 4 total. They spawn in technical crate decent amount. If not then go to interchange and check Oli shelves, etc

[woeful mortar]

Is there a button for quick equip? so I don't have to drag someones gear onto me?

[kindred grotto]

alt left click

[woeful mortar]

Thank you! I assume that doesn't also change the item you are wearing only if the slot is already emtpy

[kindred grotto]

nneeds to be empty yes

[light olive]

where is the best place to find drills

I cant find any

[vagrant lava]

do you know what key those are?

[woeful mortar]

Ok how does protect objective actually work, how close do I have to stay to the objective? I keep seeing older videos of people running away after placing the markers

[pearl copper]

no distance requirement, only requiring that you are alive after the time run out/and that noone walk up to grab your marker

[woeful mortar]

So I can drop it and race for the next one?

[vagrant lava]

ty hero

[pearl copper]

yep

[cedar vigil]

need help w quests beginner 13

[full ether]

aneyone whilling to help me new to the game like level 2 just wanna learn the ropes

[woeful mortar]

So can someone explain to me how the upcoming twitch drops work? I see one section is says a subscription has to be "Acquired" So what I have to just join a stream and hope that someone gifts me a subscription to get the reward?
I also saw something about a Streamer Case How does that work exactly I say a short clip saying that you had to subscribe to a streamer is that correct??

[abstract harness]

streamer case was from last twitch drops, these are for hideout customization, they are not the same
afaik u must gift 2 twitch subs to get it

[maiden marlin]

lul

12.8k xp

[woeful mortar]

so I have to gift 2 subs to people not be given a sub

[abstract harness]

mhm

[karmic dove]

Do trader barters use non found in raid items before found in raid?

[topaz forge]

i dont know what priority it sets for barters so i always manually fill them if im worried about it using a found in raid item

you can also lock items you dont want it to use in the barter

[karmic dove]

Ah thats nice to know

Thanks

[midnight locust]

It does use non-fir first

[proven fog]

where do i get teh key for pocket watch quest?

[limpid sigil]

3 story dorms, second floor with the bed in front of the room

[wooden kelp]

does arena give a lot of exp?

[limpid sigil]

Depends on your performance and ability to win but generally yes

[pale wave]

guys I need help doing pocket watch and aquarius, I am scared of dorms

[pale wave]

in dorms 203

in the jackets

[pale wave]

went from 1 to 12 in 4 matches

nobody available to assist a poor level 13 timmy?

[wooden kelp]

are you talking about me

also i played a factory raid and absolutely slapped a guy in the face with a bad pistol

i got some really good gear i think

i am very happy

i cant stop smiling

[sonic quarry]

what is the true point of tarkov? Should the goal to be to achieve kappa, or is that extremely unrealistic for a new player

[stable otter]

I meaaan

[tidal lagoon]

people have done it their first wipe

i wouldnt focus too much on progressing fast ur first wipe tho

rather just learn the game and have fun instead of hard grinding it

[short bay]

can someone please explain to me how spawns work

[wooden kelp]

whastza a kappa

[delicate axle]

Gladly taking advice on how to get scavs to old gas on customs 😆

[wind pine]

Open mapgenie go to desired map > hide all > player spawns

[short bay]

i did. But then i noticed, because i opened multiple sites

that they have diffferent number of spawns (looking at customs) so wihch one is true

map genie shows 11, tarkov dev 7

anda re they all completely random?

[wind pine]

Yeah they should be random

Feels like sometimes the spawns closest to yours don't fill so you're not 10m away from someone off spawn

But I really don't know lol

[sonic quarry]

Hard grinding is how i have fun lol

I have been putting in some time. This is my first wipe and i have nearly 260 hours. Im level 30, have a red rebel, and am saving streamer items for Kappa. I have had a lot of help from friends that have been playing for multiple wipes, but overall i feel like im doing pretty decent

[tidal lagoon]

full send it then

[sonic quarry]

Any task lines you suggest focusing on first?

Im thinking punisher for the secure container since i only have the base edition of the game

[tidal lagoon]

yes do that

i dont really focus too much on tasklines when i quest, i like to sort the task list by location the nsee which map has the most tasks on it and then try to do as many in 1 raid

[sonic quarry]

That makes sense. I have also been doing that, but i feel like a consentrated effort on the punisher just to get the secure container, will make doing the other tasks slightly easier

probably not, but i feel like that extra space is super valuable

[tidal lagoon]

it is

will allow u to run a proper loadout with docs case, injector case, ammo, painkillers

[sonic quarry]

I did the barter for the beta so far, and just that slight upgrade was huge. the 4x2 would be massive

right now im running a cms, a docs case, golden star and injectors in my pouch. being able to add my paracord or ammo and a dog tag case would be really nice

[pale wave]

no, me

i'm a poor level 13 timmy who needs pocket watch

[pale wave]

very much is

any additional container space is a win

[vale tulip]

lookin too hop in and have someone teach me the ropes, english prefered.

[fluid tartan]

Anyone wanna play? Im lvl 16, i know a bit about the game but im looking for someone to guide me and show me more about the maps

[rocky zealot]

Anyone else feel like shorline keys aren't showing up in their spawn locations?

[summer pawn]

how long does it take the btr to arrive at a waiting spot?

[rocky zealot]

depends on the route and if someone else hired him

[summer pawn]

and if it spawned?

[rocky zealot]

that too

[pale wave]

its more of a random thing you find in cabinets and jackets

[rocky zealot]

#goodolddays then i guess

[woeful halo]

Need help with error 228 cant seem to find out how to fix it. Wont let me unpack equipment crates and im not sure why anyone know what to do?
NEW
[9:10 AM]
Im in beginner #3 for anyone willing to help me

[woeful mortar]

So I just wanted to confirm i saw a rule update post on reddit saying that the new twitch drop is not given to PVE accounts. Why? The items have been showing up on my hideout customization screen for like a week now?

[patent wadi]

It will likely be added in game later as a quest reward like the stream box thing

But its right, its not given to PvE

[rancid steeple]

Region: NA
Language: English
Experience: 1k hours
I can help with: learning maps, questing, basics, I am pretty good at strategy when it comes to pvp. I can give people a lot of insites on the firearms. And plenty of other things
Feel free to dm me
Availability: most times during the week, depends if im working.

[rocky zealot]

Why does big sale feel so impossible?

[slender dew]

because so many angles for pmcs to have and also scavs.. plus all done in 1 if I recall correctly

[rocky zealot]

Just feels like everytime I'm close i get killed from the dumbest angle possible.

[slender dew]

there are a million of them, that and bunker are so far my most frustrating tasks

[rocky zealot]

can you not restore your thorax? Mine got blacked and I couldnt use a surv kit

[slender dew]

thorax and head cannot be fixed it blacked out. Imagine doing literal surgery on your own heart or head.. can't do it

[rocky zealot]

Do I have an option of having a mirror?

Real note are Zryachiy's shots silent?

[low ginkgo]

Any tips for getting AHF1 stim? I've hit black and green a few times with no luck

[slender dew]

that is the best way, keep running that I would say

[pale wave]

black in labs

you'll find it fast

[low ginkgo]

guess ill keep running it. black is just so competitive

[devout sapphire]

anyone knows why test drive kills dont count ?

[kindred grotto]

under 40 meters maybe

isnt that the wrong scope lol

[kindred grotto]

you have the wrong tan scope

[eternal bolt]

someone wwho want to help me with wood quest im 23 its my second wipe and play on eu

[placid crag]

so I have to craft a Junk box now - to unlock scav case in hideout right?

[main steeple]

Would anyone be willing to run a bit with me so i can figure out how this game works

[compact hill]

better equipment = better loot harder enemies on pve?

[odd lily]

anyone help me get the harddrive on ground zero and extract could use some back up as its a contested spot lost it twice already

[dense mantle]

hey, are goons guaranteed on shoreline?

[normal echo]

is this a PVE question?

if you mean PVP - no, they rotate around maps from time to time

customs, shoreline, woods, lighthouse

they don't have a guaranteed map they spawn on

[dense mantle]

Ty

[normal echo]

there are external sites like Tarkov Pal that have people reporting last known location of goons btw @dense mantle

[dense mantle]

Thats good to know thx again

[ebon marsh]

i was playing factory and i heard the pmc karma lost sound i heard it twice at 10 and 3 min left

i wasnt camping so im not sure what caused it

[undone drum]

maybe you were close to an extract?

[ebon marsh]

once yea for scout quest for like 12 seconds and the other time now that i think about it i was just camping for incoming scavs kinda lmao

[open bridge]

why is the hunted poster worth so much?

[rugged basalt]

where do i get salewas

have not found a single one in the last 70 hours

[normal echo]

anywhere where meds spawn, try the emercom camp on woods

the one not far from the RUAF extract

[left hound]

i keep getting this

trying to open rare weapond crate

[maiden marlin]

try making more room maybe

[left hound]

it worked, i needed ALOT of room but it worked

[lofty bridge]

if I send screenshots can someone tell me what to keep / sell

[maiden marlin]

yeah the equiptment and junkboxes usually take a lot of room

[lofty bridge]

i dont have any space its starting to be an issue

im 13 and dont have flee yet

[left hound]

i can help a bit and explain how to know if you need it

[maiden marlin]

do u have a scav junkbox

[proven copper]

New player here! looking to get a group together to casual/competitive run some raids. Im higher than average with fps games on PC. just looking to learn a little more than the basics of this game and looking for a chill community to game with. Im 32 yrs old so i feel like this is important due to the new dialect in games now a days......

[left hound]

??timmy

[red thistle]

If you're looking for teammates, you can head over to #beginners-assistance or #pvp-lfg.

If you're looking for a teacher/someone to guide you in-raid ; you can check out #sherpa-info. Sherpa’s official volunteers that will gladly teach you the game - They use a ticket system so there may be a tad bit of a wait time.

Alternatively, on the Sherpahub discord you may navigate to their #674275441367973891 (looking-for-group) or #673310157232406538 (looking-for-help) channels to find non-official sherpas that are offering help.
(Second set of channel links will not show properly until you join the Sherpahub Server)

[left hound]

try that out . you can learn a ton there

[proven copper]

this is beginners-assistance LOL

[left hound]

i know . sherpa hub is what your looking for lmao. if you wanna learn the game they will help you out there . sherpas are dope i had one when i learned the ga

[lofty bridge]

yeh

[maiden marlin]

send pic of it

[left hound]

get an ammo box and a med case

[lofty bridge]

where from

[left hound]

first off. then sell those mags you can just buy back. keep the pmags there fire. if you can afford a weapon case get that

oh yeah you dont have flea yet.

[lofty bridge]

yeh

:p

this is my issue lol

[left hound]

just get 2 levels real quick and get flea id say. its so worth it to just grind out 3-4 quest for them levels

[lofty bridge]

im having to leave valuable stuff in raid bc i cant store it

but is there anything i have rn i should sell

[left hound]

alot of those mags you can just buy again when you actually run a gun that uses them so id sell those with the ammo taken out of it

[normal echo]

most of this ammo is bad

sell the bad magazines as well, for stuff like pistols

[lofty bridge]

yeh i have

idk what ammo is good / bad

[normal echo]

look at the penetration value

anything below 30 = sell

[wheat ore]

am i missing something obvious for gunsmith 14

[gleaming tide]

any other good locations to find electric drill other than killmov back rooms?

[kindred grotto]

smuggler base shoreline

[gleaming tide]

for sure

[robust root]

did you just turn in gunsmith 13?

[wheat ore]

no did it ages ago, i have the gunsmith 14 quest its just not registering the gun so i can turn it in

[robust root]

dunno then, looks good on the wiki

[wheat ore]

thats where im stuck, i was having the issue of using the wrong mag which was making it too heavy, no its under the 4kg rating and it wont register

i just made a second one from scratch and it wont register at all

[gleaming tide]

restart the game. Make sure the gun is empty

[wheat ore]

restart didnt help unfortunately, and i made sure the gun is empty

[gleaming tide]

im out of ideas lol

[wheat ore]

preciate the help anyways

its so weird though, it shows the golden checkmark symbol on the gun when it has no attachments but cant turn it in, then once the attachments are on it dissappears

[gleaming tide]

i guess doublke check all the attacvhments

[wheat ore]

ill have to take a thorough check later then, might wait till my buddy is on so i can get a second set of eyes

[wheat ore]

i got it, i guess i saved the wrong laser for the build, i didnt think to check that part bc i knew i had obtained the correct laser and didnt put 2 and 2 together that that was the cause

[gleaming tide]

rip , glad you caught it

[fair trench]

How do I find out what kinda things i can sell?

[slender dew]

lighthouse as a scav, going north to south along the shore side starting at construction ending at southern road. Find them all the time

[rough sorrel]

anyone tryna help me with my task

[slender dew]

pro tip, saying what exactly you need help with generally yields much better results than a blanket SOS flag of "help me""

[rough sorrel]

i said with task

[slender dew]

that narows it down to.... like 200 different things...

[rough sorrel]

dont know what you want me to say i just need help with my task

[topaz forge]

which task

[slender dew]

well.... what you would want to ideally say if you need help with a task, is which of the probably 200 quests exactly you are working on and need help with. But do you booboo

[rough sorrel]

i need help with jager first task

[lean rose]

trying to do gunsmith part 7 what am i doing wrong?

[lean rose]

help

[amber elbow]

Just watch a yt video

Gigabeef usually comes in clutch when it comes to gunsmith

I lowkey just copy his builds every wipe

I cba to figure omit out myself😂

[pulsar lantern]

I have a question (im newer to the game so if this is dumb mb) i tried to transition between interchange and customs as a scav. I had 80k rubles i spawned with and when i tried to purchase the transfer loot before moving to the next map service it said "unable to transfer loot" why is this? is it because it was money given to me at the start of the scav run? (realized this is probably the better chat for this)

[lean rose]

i did follow one for that bit but lemme check giga

[amber elbow]

Always works for me

Just make sure the gun is 80+ durability

Or I think it’s 60+

And make sure it has no ammo in it

[lean rose]

durability 99, no ammo but it doesnt give it weird enough

[amber elbow]

Bro

It might be the Adar upper receiver

It sure tho

Unless he uses that in the video

Rear sight and front sight

Mbus

[lean rose]

holy shit you're right

[amber elbow]

lol

Did it work?

[left hound]

anyone else get high ass ping when they only have 1 server selected

[lofty bridge]

what key do i need for the water stash on customs

ik i need 203 for the golden zibbo

[subtle seal]

206 i think

you can get it from therapist

[topaz forge]

303

and 206 is operation aquarius

[lofty bridge]

yeh i got them both

ty

[woeful mortar]

What does the uno reverse symbol mean on items?

[maiden marlin]

prolly hideout wishlist

barter item

[topaz forge]

barter wishlist

hideout wishlist is the hideout symbol

[open bridge]

finally found the 'legendary' poster

[rapid jacinth]

Anyone trying to run raids tomorrow ? I’m level 4 rn lmao

[gleaming tide]

SHOUTOUT to the homie who gave me some lvl 6 plates on streets

[low ginkgo]

Does ref rep reset if you prestige?

[halcyon vault]

anyone want to scav?

[woeful mortar]

I just got disconnected from a raid because my connection was poor. I'm playing on PVE I was told that PVE was all based on my pc not a server??? I lost two green batteries to that!

[cerulean field]

#eft-announcements message

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[woeful mortar]

Oh thank god I got back in

[woeful mortar]

I was on customs though

So why was I on a server if I was on customs and PVE?

[topaz forge]

idk but i was getting packet loss when i was messing around in an offline raid earlier

game bad or pc bad idk

[vagrant lava]

can i still enter a raid tagged and cursed

[topaz forge]

yea

youll die to scavs very quickly but you can

[nocturne lance]

Meta weapon for level 17 need suggestions

[carmine oxide]

you have flea unlocked you can build pretty much anything you want

[nocturne lance]

There so many build i need budget friendly give me one example

[carmine oxide]

well I like this one but you'll need peacekeeper and skier ll2

[nocturne lance]

Mine is only ragman and jaeger LII rest are L1 that's why I am very confused

[carmine oxide]

is it a money or rep problem ?

[nocturne lance]

Both

I have 296723 Rb

[carmine oxide]

oh yeah I see

[nocturne lance]

I build stm 9 fron YouTube for 2.5k i died lol

[carmine oxide]

stm gotta be the worst gun in the game tho..

[nocturne lance]

But it was fun I killed bear PMC in one in one than I took his sniper I snipe some pmc in gas station they got me

[carmine oxide]

well I would suggest you to sell all the loot you wont need for next hideout upgrade or tasks items on the flea

[nocturne lance]

Okay

[carmine oxide]

i was at like 400k a few days ago im at 3.6m now

goes up quick

[slender dew]

the tube is the way, especially if you have access to AP or the P ammo

[carmine oxide]

AP are my go to ammo when using 9x19, dont be afraid on spending for kits, you'll have more chances to win your fights by doing that, and if you go absolutely broke, you still have your scav

[slender dew]

exactly, so many people worry about going broke, but therefor they bring cheap kits and die, when maybe they could have survived if they brought the business. And if not, then go scav, make a ton of easy money and with things like rogues on LH have a kit and pay a small repair bill to use the gun for a few raids

[carmine oxide]

it takes a while to learn whats worth keeping/selling or not but once you know its easy money

[slender dew]

exactly, once you get flea, you can easily have a 10 minute scav with 200k in loot without even finding anything crazy and staying safe

[carmine oxide]

wait i just realized something, they removed the fucking REAP-IR AK from Kiba on interchange

what kind of dev do that

[bold kernel]

any help with vpx for bitcoin lvl 1? i cnt find any for like 3 days

[nocturne lance]

Thanks for the tip

[low ginkgo]

Do you have to do ‘is this a reference’ every wipe to get the twitch case or can you redeem it like the twitch event people after completion?

[nocturne lance]

How to do money grind to like millions so just do scavs or any thing else?

[carmine oxide]

lighthouse key locations

[carmine oxide]

you pmc or scav main ?

[wind pine]

Got mine from hillside house on lighthouse labs of course is good too

[bold kernel]

isnt reserve a good map for those?

[nocturne lance]

I mostly do quests so main when I run out of money do scavs

[carmine oxide]

well lighthouse has more of every kind of rare loot but I guess if you're lucky enough..

[carmine oxide]

probbaly should invest in "rare" or "expensive" keys, do your research on what keys have safes or rare spawn behind them

they will be mostly on customs (dorms key), shoreline or lighthouse

[nocturne lance]

Okay

Bring a big bag and than run 🏃‍♀️

[carmine oxide]

theres about 4 keys that arent too expensive on lighthouse, merin, hillside house and USEC cottage first & second (for the last two ones, if you crouch and look on the left side of the safes you'll see the white dot if there none it means theres nothing in the safe)

[arctic summit]

need help on woods and doing usec camp and post for ref

[slender dew]

just offering what I personally do, when I am on a pmc run I am either questing or looting. Whether it is my quest or for my teammate, but pick one. Scavs are tp make money. Don't look for fights, no sense getting all this sweet pmc loot just to bleed out before extract type of thing. It is easy to make money as a scav, seriously. And if the goal is a pmc money run, then that is the goal and ypu aren't questing. When you mix both, bad things happen

[nocturne lance]

Okay will try let see

[wooden kelp]

can anyone guide me through prapors quest search mission

[civic loom]

Any tips on finding Thermite? I saw someone suggesting Shoreline however is there anything more specific?

[normal echo]

shoreline village near the tunnel

every single house and shed

there's like 30 toolboxes there

[civic loom]

Thanks, I will give it a shot.

[wind pine]

Smugglers base as well is a good place for technical items in general

[dry flint]

I always find that stuff on labs basement.

its spread out

[odd lily]

would anyone be willing to help me with a few small missions on ground zero, getting the ssd drive, extracting in the car and finding the machine gun, they are all just highly contested and could use some help

[weak sand]

bro done got a ACR

[bold kernel]

who shoud i give the chemical part 4 thingy?

[tidal lagoon]

do u have eod

[bold kernel]

no

[tidal lagoon]

hm

its either therapist or skier

skier might be best, cuz to get his rep back u need to pay him 1 mil

how mcuh rep do u have with him

[bold kernel]

0.45

[tidal lagoon]

ye might wanna go for skier then

[bold kernel]

ok

[carmine oxide]

?

[sweet ether]

is there anyway for me to be able to just simply get better?

nerd

[unkempt egret]

Skill issue, git gud

[fallen cargo]

dos any 1 now the safe names for the custem commpeny ofice room

[woeful mortar]

Why is fences daily timer different

[normal echo]

wdym, that dailies for fence reset at different times than rest of the traders?

it's because you unlock dailies for regular traders at lvl 5 pmc level, but for fence you unlock them when you build intel center lvl 1

[woeful mortar]

Yah his nails rest at like 530pm for me, but traders reset at like 10pm. And since I work 8 hour shifts I gotta choose which one to prioritize because either I do the one I just took or I do the ones that are ending in 4 hours

[normal echo]

well you can just not play tarkov for 1 day and they should sync up

[steel phoenix]

I just got the game never played before what should I do

[patent wadi]

You can some guide videos online or if you want to jump in right away Id recommend you do offline raid to get used with thr basic mechanics of the game, if you need a teacher you can apply for a sherpa in #sherpa-info

[silk heart]

u looking for a team?

[unkempt egret]

Other than guide videos, start by making a character, slap a kit together and load into an offline raid to check your settings and keybinds. Hop around the map a bit, shoot imaginary targets etc. Having to fiddle with your keybinds while in a live raid where people shoot at you can be somewhat inconvenient.

[undone drum]

I started to call it practise raid, because new people couln´t find "offline" raid anywhere in game

[fossil forge]

Anyone down to play together? Tryna find the USEC camp on woods

[torpid folio]

why is this happening>

[runic owl]

new to game anyone wanna run?

[wanton falcon]

Guys how tf do you get over gear fear

[jade silo]

get lvl 42 to where you can get that gear for super cheap

[wanton falcon]

I have 7M rubles in stash, 10x48 stash full of gear from rogue scav raiding and I can't find the motivation to go into raid and lose it

Just hit 15 for flea access

[robust root]

tell yourself as soon as you load into the menu, your inventory is gone

[jade silo]

then just run like that on labs fall over a couple times and then you wont care abt loot bcz the one time you make it out of raid you paid for all of those deaths

[robust root]

if its there when you click it, then its free to lose

[wanton falcon]

last time I played I had 25M rubles in stash at wipe lol

seems annoying to spend 30 minutes scavving to get gear

to lose it in 10 minutes as a PMC

[robust root]

hurry up your scav runs and slow down on your PMC?

[wanton falcon]

if it wasn't for scav timer

I'd be out there scavving 24/7

I just find that whatever gear I have, I end up dying

[robust root]

which you know you can decrease that timer?

with hideout upgrades

[wanton falcon]

Yeah I am trying to get my scav rep up further - don't have intel station built yet

anyway that doesn't solve for gear fear

I think I need to go in with shit gear

pmc scav

[robust root]

the gear is lost as soon as you put it on

[wanton falcon]

yeha it's not about losing the gear necessarily

it's more about going backwards in terms of inventory and rubles

[fossil forge]

I can’t even survive enough raids to have gear fear just constant getting rocked on woods

[robust root]

such is tarkov

[wanton falcon]

I find woods one of the easiest to survive on

[robust root]

same here

[wanton falcon]

streets is a nightmare

customs as well

[fossil forge]

I think it’s bc i don’t know the map like i do the others yet

Using map genie helps hella

[wanton falcon]

Woods is a pretty confusing map even after 350 hrs

trying to reference a tree and a rock is difficult

first time I played woods I spawned in the dark (stupid me chose the wrong time) and right beside the land mines naer the USEC camp... literally ran off map, hit mines.... went back, hit mines

was very tarkov

[robust root]

i like to learn the maps in the dark, feels like im cheating in the daytime

[wanton falcon]

I think I just need to get a cheaper kit for pmc runs

I usually do rogue scav runs on lighthouse, get a decent tier 4 armor kit + rogue gun

and go out with that for my pmc*

[robust root]

i use my scav to learn the map, then run it back on my pmc

[pearl copper]

keep losing it in 10 minutes as PC is how you learn and improve from your death to eventually become the person who take other player's 30 minutes scavving to get gear etc

Learn to build some good budget kits and slam those

[wanton falcon]

Yeah unfortunately it feels like this is something that takes more than 300 hours to master

[pearl copper]

"300 hours".... is not even close lol

I'd consider at least 1000-2000 hours to become an average player

[normal echo]

1000 is closer

[wanton falcon]

If you can be revenue-positive as a pmc only

kudos

[tough sinew]

What should i do with my purples and other random blue items?
Like cyclon, KEK, Therm's, Figurs, Pass, ect?

[bold kernel]

Keep what you need for crafts, quests, and hideout upgrades then sell everything else

[cerulean field]

save for collector? if you have space

[tough sinew]

okay 😄

[solar mirage]

i cant store this?

[cerulean field]

just look stuff up on the wiki and see how many you need for upgrades/quests, sell the rest

[normal echo]

search if they are needed for anything

and keep or sell depending on that

remember that hideout is found in raid now, so if something is far away from now you still would need them later

[kindred holly]

spa pt 5 key aint on the chair where its meant to be anyone know why?:?

[unique mantle]

wrong chair maybe ? @kindred holly

[kindred holly]

nah checked the wiki for it and its defo the right chair

[normal echo]

where are you checking?

[normal echo]

are you 100% sure you accepted the quest?

[unique mantle]

the quest is active ?

[kindred holly]

that chair right there its the exact same pic location as the wiki

yh

lol bugged for me i suppose maybe its just this raid bugged

[unique mantle]

try to scan it, maybe it sunk into the texture, otherwise reset and try again

[sour barn]

does clothing carry over to the next wipe?

[orchid isle]

the ones u bought w real money

[unique mantle]

and achievement ones i think

[timid sun]

anyone able to help me with some quest im 2 days new to the game and trynna learn

[wanton falcon]

case in point - then I"ll go to customs and lose it lol

Here you go, this has all the help and sherpas

And lfg

[sour barn]

any other new players wanna run some raids? im level 19 tryna get some quests done

[primal rock]

Once again the message I posted above

It has the PvP lfg and all that

[abstract harness]

too much text, they ignore

[sour barn]

yeah i aint readin allat

[primal rock]

Tarkov is lazy

[olive cape]

what i got for sacrificing 5 salts

that aint salt that's cocaine

[primal rock]

Goated shit

[tame relic]

Anyone wanna group I'm new though

Yes on na

Assaulterwolfy is my name

@sour barn go to channel one

[surreal dragon]

is there a really early on item i can get that i could put stuff inside of it to reduce the space it uses? like i already have the lucky scav junk box thingy to put junk in. But are there others like for guns, meds, ammo etc, that i can get early on?

[rigid stratus]

super early, but looking for someone to help me with tasks tonight around 9pm EST

[sour barn]

yeah theres ammo and med boxes

[surreal dragon]

are they easy to get? because rn im using chest rigs to store ammo and meds and its a pain to try to find what im looking for

[sour barn]

yeah but i think you gotta get them off the flea since itll take longer to get them through traders

[primal rock]

#pvp-lfg #pve-lfg

[surreal dragon]

im only level 10 so when i reach 15 i will most def be looking through the flea market but im having trouble leveling up. like rn im rocking maybe 1 level every 6 hours

[primal rock]

You need to do a lot of quests.

Prioritize them

Check with the lfgs players will help you there

[surreal dragon]

i struggle on quest ALOT

[primal rock]

It’s so easy to do I always solo them

Go to lfgs and ask people will help

[surreal dragon]

i only play solo. i think the main issue is that i have gear for so i try to do the quests with low tier kits and just die right of rip

[primal rock]

Well you won’t progress any faster than that my guy. You need to get to the LFGs and learn to solo efficiently.

Besides how else are you going to do it.

[surreal dragon]

whats LFG's?

[primal rock]

Looking for group.

[surreal dragon]

oh

[primal rock]

Once again #pvp-lfg #pve-lfg

[surreal dragon]

oh ok, thanks

[primal rock]

These show you which ever mode you play they have those players willing to help with quests or need help with questing

[primal rock]

Yep anytime

[mighty ocean]

does anyone know which task i have to do to get more peacekeeper tasks? ca lvl 20

[primal rock]

Realistically keep working with peace keeper.

[mighty ocean]

I dont have any tasks at all with him

[primal rock]

You need to get your first shoreline quest that drops and sv98 on a boat and a multi tool

Another thing is you will get this quest no matter what because you have to do it for kappa.

[mighty ocean]

what is the name of this task? I have done alot on shoreline already but i dont think this one

[primal rock]

You need to complete friends from the west.

I believe part 2.

That’s when you unlock peacekeeper.

[mighty ocean]

it worked, thanks!

[primal rock]

Anytime my guy.

[delicate summit]

the cheapest thing i used to conserve space very early was the bank robber and CSA rigs, only takes up 6 but holds 8 and ragman 1 sells them for cheap. alot of bags and rigs do this and can help conserve space until you can get cases. the pill box backpack is another example

[surreal dragon]

yeah rn i just have bags in bags and chest rigs inside bags holding stuff

[undone drum]

what lvl are you?

[surreal dragon]

10

[undone drum]

can you make a screenshot of your inv?

[surreal dragon]

yeah, im in a raid so just give me a couple of minutes

[delicate summit]

yeah id do the nesting doll of bags and just use any "space saver" rig as storage. what level are your traders specifically ragman

[surreal dragon]

all 1

[tender bloom]

im at 2 of 3 on my tarkov shooter quest where i need bolt action kills on pmc within 25 meters ive killed atleast 3 pmcs and it just wont finish the quest

[surreal dragon]

i can send the SS now

[delicate summit]

i would dump things like magazines, theyre cheap enough to buy as you need and they take up alot of space early on. especially those .366 ak 10 rounders that are two slots

i should specify, dump magazines you can rebuy. like the ak mags (not the 60 rounder though keep that)

[surreal dragon]

ok

[delicate summit]

also the folding car key doesnt open anything its only a barter for the mp-153 with 2 other useless keys

[surreal dragon]

oh so sell?

[delicate summit]

i would yea

also another trick with most ARs is take the magazine out and pistol grip off if you dont plan to use it soon itll make it into a one row and you can rebuy pistol grips from mechanic 1 and prapor 1

[undone drum]

Will you use all of this gear?

[surreal dragon]

99% of it holds stuff

like the chest rigs and bags

[undone drum]

You have stuff there, that can be bought easily. AK.74U, PP19
Don´t store stuff you can buy, sell

also those mags you can buy as well

Storing stuff in backpacks and rigs makes sense for a new player but gets confusing over time.
You want to spend as little as possible playing tetris or search stuff in your bakcpacks and more time in raid

[maiden perch]

Solid advice

[surreal dragon]

i need someone to convince me to run this, the gear fear hitting me bad. i cant stand losing gun fights losing all i have. but im also scared that i will die with this

[topaz forge]

run that shit

but spoiler alert

you will die

run it or sell it, its fucking worthless if its sitting in your stash

[hushed helm]

do you need to kill 20 bears on lighthouse for kappa?

[topaz forge]

i dont think its a kappa quest?

check on wiki

[topaz forge]

also repair ur helmet

itd also be worth grabbing better headphones if you can, just a slight advantage over the m32s

[surreal dragon]

that kinda hit me, cause i was thinking why let it collect dust

[pearl copper]

spamming kits and losing them is how you improve yourself with experience. soon enough you'll be on the other end taking other people's kits

all the stuff in stash will get wiped in about 5 months, don't sweat it

[surreal dragon]

i found this kit on a dead body lol, when i had like 10 hours in the game

i think 2 people traded

[sharp moth]

What’s the best rsass build?

[surreal dragon]

becuase there were 2 body both with AMAZING kits but only got this one

and when running to the extract i killed 2 pmc's but i was so scared of losing what i had i didnt loot them

[undone drum]

sell it and buy yourself a kit, that you are confortable to loose. Where you can make desicisons based of situations and not based on kit u afraid to loose

[surreal dragon]

i like this kit though, its one where i can shoot people from a distance and not the INSTANTLY beaming me'

[obtuse current]

Ive completed the BTRs "hot Wheels" quest (first one) and turned in, he wont give me another quest now... several raids and days between

anyone knows why or a fix

[echo quarry]

How do you make a keybind in the settings unbinded/remove the key its set to so that it has no keybind at all.

[undone drum]

you can also slap the scope on AK-74U

[surreal dragon]

i could but the recoil

[undone drum]

you have no choice but to use it then

single fire every recoil is managable

[surreal dragon]

i will use the loadout i have right now, like the one in the photo.... but if i die there will be a hole in my monitor

[undone drum]

but with AK-74 U you have option of full auto

[undone drum]

then tarkov is not for you

[surreal dragon]

lol

i normally stay calm and collected when i die

but there is the occasion where i dont

[undone drum]

This gear is not that great anyway

once you reach lvl 15, you can buy it from flea

[surreal dragon]

its only level 4, i will most likely get 1 tapped buty

[tardy crypt]

Who just ran into a scav on woods early daylight hours at medcamp?
-pscav

[fossil forge]

Anyone wanna run some tomorrow AM EST

[magic olive]

Hey anyone on now want to run? Never ran a single game before

[undone drum]

i can link you a single youtube guide

[magic olive]

I'm looking for people to play with

[undone drum]

this is the right channel
#pvp-lfg

[solid grotto]

how do i get into the progression of the game, if i can't play the game... any takers? Ex. Get a email just to log into and install the game.

[undone drum]

whats is your question?

[solid grotto]

how do i get the email... sent to my email to install the game.

[foggy crown]

can a decent player help me and buddy with interchange quests?

[solid grotto]

depends... can u help me get a email?

[surreal dragon]

what headphones?

idk whats good

[undone drum]

??headset

[red thistle]

Thanks to gigabeef here is a mostly complete guide on general usefulness of a headset. Higher = better https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521620522304405504/1332355162802622485/image.png?ex=6794f3f0&is=6793a270&hm=b3e1104e4eec2903720ef602294f9e685327b4942ba6cbdd76bbded336bf6d4f&

[solid grotto]

??getmemytarkovemail

[surreal dragon]

yeah, same thing

he told me to get a dif pair because rn im using the m32

[shrewd knoll]

do you not know the email you used to purchase the account?

[patent wadi]

Your best bet is to ask in #community-support there is a few reasons why you cant get it, I know someone had to turn off their firewall

[solid grotto]

Im waiting for tarkovs side, they wont send me the email for me to login to my account and install the damn game

[shrewd knoll]

oh

[solid grotto]

firewall for gmail?

[shrewd knoll]

try and relaunch it, see if they then re send it?

check your spam’s as stupid as that sounds

[patent wadi]

it could be the gmail thing as well everyone seem to have problem receiving the email is using gmail it seems

[undone drum]

gmail works fine for me

[topaz forge]

any of the ones on like the top half of that list should be fine

[solid grotto]

well arnt you a lucky one, I wish.

[shrewd knoll]

yeah i don’t remember having to wait at all when purchasing the game and trying to install it

[topaz forge]

they make ambient sound quieter and give you a little range boost

[surreal dragon]

i got one of these missions, Does it want me to extract some where specific or just any where

[patent wadi]

Any extract on streets

[surreal dragon]

oh wait, i see at the top right

mb lol

[exotic depot]

What am i missing on this build?

[undone drum]

is it for gunsmith?

[exotic depot]

yes, gunsmith part 12

[undone drum]

checked wiki already?

[exotic depot]

yup

i belueve the issue has to be with the stock, but idk wich model would be the "stock one"

[patent wadi]

The stock is the problem

It needs to be the CTS

[surreal dragon]

in the flea market can you buy T H I C C containers?

[patent wadi]

Nope you can only barter or get from quest

[exotic depot]

So it should be this one isn't it?
rthought idk why i cannot stall it

[patent wadi]

Send the modding screen from your gun if you can

[exotic depot]

nvm, thanks for the help, it was an AR-buffer tube

[surreal dragon]

are there any storage expansion container thingys that you can buy from the flea market, like a wallet, meds container, or ammo crate?

[patent wadi]

Yes ammo, med and even weapon iirc

[surreal dragon]

whats weapon iirc

[patent wadi]

But any THICC arent found on market

IIRC = if i remember correctly

[surreal dragon]

is there multiple T H I C C's for like everything or just for weapons

[patent wadi]

There is a THICC for weapon and one for items

[surreal dragon]

like junk items? or any item?

[patent wadi]

Pretty much any item can go in the THICC item

[exotic depot]

they're only THICC I case and Weapons case

[patent wadi]

THICC weapon is for weapons only

[quaint breach]

im new and wanting to play with someone im only level 7 and have no clue what im doing

[surreal dragon]

wouldnt that just be INF storage then?

[echo quarry]

I am like level 2 and also have no idea what i am doing

[patent wadi]

Inf storage?

[abstract harness]

there’s restrictions
Look on wiki

[echo quarry]

wanna play together?

[surreal dragon]

if any item can go in 1 of the T H I C C crates couldnt you just stack up on em?

oh wait, u cant buy them NVM lol

[quaint breach]

im down

[exotic depot]

the restriction is that you can't put inside another item cases, thought, idk if it's still up the trick of using a backpack to create a chain of storate or not

thought, being sincere, with the curretn state of the game there's not much reasoning as to use an THICC case

[marsh wagon]

do some keys just not have a door to unlock?

[undone drum]

yes

[dry flint]

I use my THICC case to store all my insurance stuff and misc items.

[marsh wagon]

any way to find which ones have and which ones dont have one easily? or do i just have to look at a map and figure it out

[dry flint]

Then again, I also have like 4 scav boxes due to how upgrades work now.

[undone drum]

tarkov wiki

[exotic depot]

I mean, if you want to mass store some stuff, ussually it's better to not ammas so much stuff, and if you do, dpeends on what you really want

[undone drum]

just google:
tarkov wiki then key name

[dry flint]

I can name you one. Weather station safe key for shoreline. Its for a safe thats already unlocked.

[marsh wagon]

yeah just sold that one

my doc case is full i need to like sort some keys out

[dry flint]

Just buy a few more doc cases and organize them by map.

[marsh wagon]

i am NOT that rich yet

[dry flint]

I mean, its only like 150k and there are now plenty of quests that give it as a reward.

[marsh wagon]

250k yeh but im kinda saving atm

need 8.5 mill for my next stash upgrade

[dry flint]

I see, i wouldnt recommend upgrading stash storage to 3 yet tbh.

If you can, get more cases depending on what you need like scav, med, ammo. It would be also cheaper to unlock mannequins and equip a couch bag on them and use it for storage.

[marsh wagon]

working on mannequins atm yeah

[foggy crown]

can someone help me on interchange pls

[quaint breach]

when does the black suv come for bridge v ex

[patent wadi]

It either spawns or not, it doesn't just come around at some point

[quaint breach]

i see

[blazing radish]

I have a found in raid ledx, I have the option to do med station level 3 rn. But should I save it for the tasks that require a found in raid ledx, or just upgrade to level 3 instead?

[topaz forge]

the craft for the ledx is much harder now, unless you really need something from medstation 3 you might want to save it for the quest

you need two different rare handbooks that are banned on flea to craft a ledx

[blazing radish]

What are some good things you can craft with med level 3

[blazing radish]

Those are alright but I think I’ll save it for the quests, thank you

[topaz forge]

👍

[remote jasper]

just downloaded the game, havent played before, where should i start

[azure pulsar]

can anyone help me w fishing quest shoreline

[slender dew]

watching begginer guides, I recommend Jesse Kazam's. Then run some offline practice modes to get the hang of things, you can also tweek the AI settings with them

[cerulean field]

How exactly did I get killed by a stacked level 40 as a level 9? How were they in the same raid?

[azure pulsar]

unless ur on ground zero theres no level restrcition

[cerulean field]

wow wtf... no wonder woods is god damn impossible right now

I thought that was server wide... jesus, I was applauding the idea

[azure pulsar]

i wish

[wind pine]

no skill based match making

its just whoever q into the same raid

[placid crag]

safe to assume that you need to craft a junk box - to do the scav case in hideout?

[topaz forge]

no, there are specific items that dont need to be found in raid

i actually havent checked if that one is one of those items but its unlikely

[abstract harness]

It does not need to be fir, check pins in #eft-chat for a full list

[bold kernel]

if anyone is struggleing to find vpx flash storage modules just trade 4 gingys and 1 bear toy in the cultist circle

[carmine cove]

Would anyone be able to help me do my first quest on ground zero? I am willing to PayPal $ based on how long and efficient a helper would be dm please

[tidal lagoon]

we dont do paid carries around here pal

also u are gonna be pretty poor if u are paying for to get the first quests of the game completed

[toxic zinc]

bro just started and already wants to pay for a carry 💀

[royal talon]

Its easy quest...

[undone drum]

does it work 100% of the time?

[bold kernel]

i asked a few guys about it and they all said that is gave them atleast 1 vpx storage module, i got 2

[wind pine]

Shouldn't matter what you put in as long as it exceeds 400k value

If you're going for the 6hr quest/hideout proc

[bold kernel]

it make sense

[wind pine]

2 Jaeger sv-98's and 2 silenced kedrs gets me the 6hr proc

I think that's the cheapest way could very well be wrong tho

[grand pelican]

with the correct items you have a 25% chance to get quest and hideout items out of the cultist circle, it'll say 6 hours if you got the 25% and 14 hours if not. there's a website to show you which items to use

[dry flint]

bet

6 hours so I think its something.

It also made a creepy noise.

[wind pine]

If it's 6 hours you'll get items you're missing for hideout or quest items

[dry flint]

I need a lot of shit for hideout so its gonna be a toss up.

[lament zealot]

get the same from 4xsas and 1xssd and it was 6 hours

[wind pine]

Yeah sometimes it's ass honestly, especially if you have drip-out bc then it puts a bunch of rigs and shit in the pool lol

[lament zealot]

i had hoped for a Far-forward GPS 😄

[wind pine]

Don't think any of the Lightkeeper items drop from cultist

Got loads on labs this wipe tho

[lament zealot]

okay, then a had to take a look at Labs

[wind pine]

Are you familiar with the map ?

[bold kernel]

dose the firework flare give drops?

[wind pine]

Yeah the purple firework flare brings in a Christmas airdrop

[dry flint]

oh shit fr? I thought it was just a prop. I wasted several already.

[sonic quarry]

not any more. the event is over and those dont work any more

[wind pine]

I was about to say I haven't used one since the event lol

[sonic quarry]

best to just sell for the cash

[wind pine]

It was cool how common they were I have 4+ scav rep and can't remember the last time I got a red flare

[sonic quarry]

i liked the santa slay always being there on reserve by hole in the wall. I got juiced off that early wipe

[wind pine]

Yeah I scavved shoreline and the airdrop was next to the smugglers base shit was getting me loaded

[lusty rose]

Need scav kills over 20m for jaeger within 50min, can anyone recommend a map?

[wind pine]

Streets

[toxic zinc]

woods shoreline streets interchange practically any map

[wind pine]

Oh interchange is good too

[lusty rose]

Cheers

[wind pine]

Go to the tents by Goshan and you'll kill 50 scavs

[lusty rose]

Perfect 🙏 I'll head there now

[toxic zinc]

or just go upstairs in the mall

[hard junco]

noob question, why does my scav have a debuff on all my skills saying im gaining less xp?

[undone drum]

where does it say that?

[hard junco]

is the skills tab

when im on scav

[undone drum]

Your scav and your PMC have different skills

[hard junco]

i am aware of that

[undone drum]

can you make a screenshot pls

[hard junco]

i just closed the game haha i'll get back on

[normal echo]

oh i think i know why lmao

that's the diminishing returns IN RAID

how it works is

let's say at start of raid you do 3 full stamina bars of sprinting

you gain like 6 points? of endurance if you are underweight, or strength if overweight

and then you need to wait 200 seconds without increasing that skill AT ALL to reset that bonus, otherwise you won't gain exp in that skill for the rest of the raid

so if you wanna level up metabolism quickly you need to wait 200 seconds between eating

[hard junco]

ooOoohhh okay that makes so much sense cuz i was thinking oh if i just keep sprinting i'll level my stuff up lol thank you i wasnt aware of that

[normal echo]

yeah no you would need to stand still for a couple minutes lol

but the thing is if you are overweight the whole raid, you can toss your backpack before extracting and run your stamina bar off

to get endurance exp

[solid sky]

Hello, how do i get cms while im lvl 10?

[hard junco]

aahh ok thats bigbrain. thank you for explaining

[solid sky]

or is there anyother thing to heal blackout limb

[tidal lagoon]

loot

[solid sky]

Dam it

[normal echo]

find it in raid

[tidal lagoon]

cms and surv12 fixes blacked limbs, u need to push for lvl 15 so u can buy them from flea

[solid sky]

Thank you

[normal echo]

@solid sky actually jaeger lvl 1 has a barter

and medstation lvl 1 has a craft

[solid sky]

Oki, time to find nippers then!, and also to creaft medstation!

[normal echo]

@solid sky remember that items for barter do not need to be found in raid, so you can put them in the secure container, die and still use them for bartering

[solid sky]

oki doki, Thank you!

[proven copper]

anyone wanna run some raids? im level 2, a true level 2. ive only got about 17 raids under my belt so im basically brand new

[placid crag]

Thank you!

[opal zenith]

anyone got the rusted bloody key? i wanna do The Door quest from mechanic.

[primal rock]

I recommend checking the lfgs or joining vcs and asking around

Most cases you will get it there.

[strong otter]

I am looking for a game

I mean people

[opal zenith]

i did, even joined some calls but either people dont wanna do it or dont have it 🙂 thank u tho

[primal rock]

Try this #pvp-lfg

[strong otter]

Ok

[primal rock]

Yep anytime.

[odd lily]

so i hiit the mira ave extract on GZ shot the flare and was in the extraction zone, but ai killed me when i was 2 seconds from extracting, it wasn't a scave ii got killed like i was out of bounds when i was extracting once again (2 seconds left) what happened

[solar wasp]

My only thought if you were getting the green extracting timer is that you weren't going completely straight down the road. If you mess around at the edges they shoot you for some reason

[undone drum]

Go to practise mode and follow this guide:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT26Hu3Nycc

You should be standing in the "flare firing area"
message promt on bottom right

Then make sure to run through extract, while the green flare is visible in the sky

[odd lily]

I was flare was in the air and the extraction timer was counting down

like i said i had 2 seconds till ii was extracted

[unique vault]

@odd lily hey

[undone drum]

go to practise mode and try to replicate it

[errant swallow]

first wipe in tarkov and ive been upgrading my hideout and now a defective wall has appeared. i used fleee to mop water up. how many times do i have to do that before the debuffs go away

[dry flint]

its indefinite I believe. I havent cleaned it once but I eventually got a prompt to start dissasembling the wall once I upgraded things further. https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Hideout

[errant swallow]

dang. thanks for info

[nova canyon]

There is 6 levels to unlocking the defective wall. First you need the fierce blow sledgehammer which you should be able to use after 1 or 2 days of defective wall appearing. Then there is a few more to unlock but try to get it done as quickly as you can because it affects player levelling quite a bit.

[errant swallow]

how do i get the sledgehammer

[dry flint]

loot it, its fairly large and requires a 2x5 space to be lootable.

[nova canyon]

I found mine on interchange on top of a barrel right next to railway extract

[errant swallow]

dang. ive seen sledgehammers in weird spots but never realised you could actually grab it lol

[gentle ravine]

hey, anyone running customs marked room and wouldnt mind if i join to place my marker pls? ❤️

[dry flint]

@undone drum the VPX craft of 4x gingy Keychain + Bear buddy works and gave me a VPX.

[rose stirrup]

Hey I was hoping someone could help me. Last wipe I was able to take screenshots and they saved in the tarkov folder with the corect name to use on the tarkov market website which tells you your map location. I changed 0 settings and now my screenshots are only saving in the computers screenshot folder so it doesn't work. Anyone dealt with this before/know how to fix it?
