beginners-assistance

[normal echo]

absolutely not

[edgy plover]

Oh reserve

[normal echo]

customs is pretty good

[edgy plover]

I misread

[normal echo]

especially with the new flare

and if you abuse the map transfer bug

[edgy plover]

Yea PMC'ing on reserve sucks without rr

[normal echo]

yes upgrade everything in hideout

[deep condor]

ok

[normal echo]

i broke my rule of never going there without RR because i am broke due to hideout fir changes obliterating the economy

[edgy plover]

Idk I like FIR hideout
made me play the game way longer than I usually do post-wipe

[normal echo]

made it way more frustrating

i have 7 fucking junkboxes

i am not immerssed in the game or have fun looking for a drill for 3 days straight

which i did

[edgy plover]

I feel like all the hideout stuff def doesn't equate to 7 junkboxes

[normal echo]

you need 111 fucking ES lamps

thats more than half of 1 junkbox

alone

[tidal lagoon]

well you dont need the gear rack/weapon rack

[normal echo]

wow great argument against FIR hideout

people skipping builds cause it's so fucking tedious to get all the stuff

lmao

[tidal lagoon]

i mean theyre ass in general tbh

[edgy plover]

I just don't get stressed trying to build hideout

like why rush it so much

[normal echo]

rush it early to skip quests like morphines

[edgy plover]

that's like 1 thing

[normal echo]

or, maybe i need the fucking stash upgrade

[edgy plover]

why rush all the later shit

[normal echo]

cause im not paying 310$

[edgy plover]

sure so focus on stash and med 2

you don't need to focus on literally everything

[normal echo]

you need OTHER stuff for stash and med though

[edgy plover]

yea like med 1

crazy

[normal echo]

i still dont have the last intel folder for intel 2

[edgy plover]

who cares, why do you need it so fast

[normal echo]

because i collect stuff for it and it's taking up 7 junkboxes of shit

and if i wanna build it at all, i gotta keep that stuff

so im hung up on bullshit like ES lamps

[edgy plover]

so because you choose to hoarde for shit down the line...

[normal echo]

...wdym down the line bro?

no, like, right now

[edgy plover]

if you're hoarding for shit after intel 2, before intel 2

[normal echo]

bro...

one sec

[edgy plover]

dude those are unnecessary upgrades
little bonuses
you don't need them

[normal echo]

why is "well you don't need it" looked at as a good argument in favor of FIR hideout?

[buoyant turret]

yo im thinking of getting tark, thoughts?

[normal echo]

you do realize you are basically saying the FIR hideout system is so dogshit and frustrating you just skip builds? lmao

[edgy plover]

no it's slowing me down

[normal echo]

save your sanity, if you have a job, don't

[edgy plover]

I still like building that shit
but i used to just get flea, get money, and max hideout

that's boring af

having to actually collect shit makes each upgrade way more meaningful

[normal echo]

or way more frustrating to be held up by stuff that's complete RNG and has zero guaranteed ways of getting lol

[edgy plover]

I mean, this is tarkov lol

it's meant to be brutally frustrating

[normal echo]

..so? this is a recent development, just saying

no, RNG in terms of keys for quests or hideout items is recent, wasn't always like this

very bad argument

[edgy plover]

what
there's always been RNG for quests and hideout shit

[normal echo]

how

and i specifically said "keys"

not quests

[edgy plover]

pre-flea you couldn't just buy every key lol

that has not always been a thing

[normal echo]

yes, and then you get flea at 15 and just buy the keys

[edgy plover]

No, pre-flea

[normal echo]

not this wipe, there was like almost 3 weeks of no flea

[normal echo]

like 6 years ago bro?

[edgy plover]

game has been in constant beta lol, they're constantly trying new shit

[normal echo]

are you gonna actually address anything or just do nonsequeters lmao

yeah the stuff they try makes the game worse

[edgy plover]

My point is they mess with the RNG needed for shit all the time, with FIR restrictions on flea, to banning shit on flea, etc
this isn't new

it's not like the flea and hideout system were set in stone

don't pretend BSG messing with this shit is that crazy

[normal echo]

untouched since it came out but ok

[normal echo]

again not to the point at all

[edgy plover]

what

flea and hideout have both been messed with

like a lot

[normal echo]

what hideout changes did the game have

[edgy plover]

Adding plenty of new nodes, requirements for nodes, etc

[normal echo]

flea had a couple changes max:
it was lvl 15
then once it was changed to 10
then 20
and also flea locks that only affected quests in only gunsmith quests like RSASS not on flea

[normal echo]

does that stall hideout progression?

[edgy plover]

Flea has had crazy updates to fir reqs, barter stuff, banned shit, etc

[normal echo]

how is that at all similar to locking it to FIR only mode where a lot of items have no sources outside of just randomly hoping to find it

[normal echo]

again, which of those stalled the progression of the game and limited it to complete RNG

you know what, i'm good

youre just talking in circles

and bringing up completely not related shit

[edgy plover]

Epic crash out tho, hope you find shit

[normal echo]

ill just go to bed

[normal echo]

how is a discussion a crashout?

[edgy plover]

Lmao

[tardy crypt]

is the scav i just ran around with on interchange here?

linked up in goshan, you were looking for a usb, and we lost each other in oli

[open bridge]

Should i keep violet or better to sell?

[tacit star]

How did I have 5 ammo count but 24 hit count?

[glass apex]

anyone want to run lighthouse? Kind of new to the map but need to finish quests

[covert hazel]

yo can anyone drop me 2 bear dog tags?
just come in naked on factory and give me 2 dogtags, i need it for a quest

[somber falcon]

New player, EU, 18+, wouldn't mind some help on initial quests 🙂 maps are big!

(pve)

[fringe jay]

Can do tomorrow if ur up to it.

[chilly wharf]

pls me too

i downloaded the game yesterday

[agile wyvern]

BTR just onetapped me on woods, I was in between the sawmill and that ammo cabin looking around. I hadn't shot a single bullet all raid. If you're near the BTR will it just shoot you? I have no idea what I did wrong

[somber falcon]

if i dont get rolling in the meantime, sure 😄

[fringe jay]

fast learner huh ? xD

[maiden marlin]

yipee another 60k

[fringe jay]

if u got PvE i guess yeah

[fringe plinth]

If a player is in the BTR they can pay ~75K rubles to have it shoot at people while it drives them, iirc

[misty echo]

Can you play on a team with the basic bersion of the game???

Like the $50 version

[edgy plover]

just not offline

offline co-op is only for better editions

[woeful mortar]

How do I get to the quest Payback

[plucky meteor]

level 13 beginner player looking for a duo or trio to run with please NA

[brisk meadow]

im trying to log onto the website and the launcher on a new SSD and its trying to send an authorization email but i am not recieveing one, in my inbox or my junk, any assistance?

[wooden kelp]

is shoreline a good map for making money people are saying that it is

[maiden marlin]

if u have keys for resort yeah

[wooden kelp]

im a beginner so no

[ivory zenith]

Yo so how do people survive the face shots from the pistols? Second dude now that I've done 72 damage to point blank and he didn't go down

[edgy plover]

prob not hitting face

[ivory zenith]

Idk where else I'd be hitting man, literally point blank no helmet lol

And it's registering damage to like i see it after

[edgy plover]

If you're point blank you have height over bore

so you're prob hitting low

[wooden kelp]

@maiden marlin whats a good map for making money

[ivory zenith]

I guess

[edgy plover]

or you're hitting helmets

[ivory zenith]

He didn't have one, and it would have said damage to armor to wouldn't it?

[edgy plover]

ya, so you gotta be hitting low

[maiden marlin]

learn streets if you have a good pc

[wooden kelp]

why streets

[maiden marlin]

theres just hella containers and valuable spawns

[wooden kelp]

what are containers again

are they the wooden crates

[maiden marlin]

no like any lootable thing

theres just so much stuff

[wooden kelp]

how much have you made from it

[maiden marlin]

i dont play it

just scav it

[edgy plover]

it used to be nuts with the valuable spawns

got a bit nerfed but still great

[maiden marlin]

ye but loose loot is bookie now

[wooden kelp]

what should i play on my pc

pmc

[maiden marlin]

do ur tasks

scav to make money to fund pmc kits

[woeful mortar]

Please rate my PVE Labs rifle setup and lemme know if it's bad, I'm running M856A1 because I recently looted a bunch of it. I went with the HHS-1 incase I need to nail a guy from across the walk way on the top level.

[maiden marlin]

why not just run m4 or hk?

[edgy plover]

bad suppressor

[woeful mortar]

Idk I kind of like Zenit AK's I didn't really give it much thought I guess

[topaz forge]

bad suppressor everything else is fine at least

[abstract harness]

oh god please anything but hybrid 46

[maiden marlin]

[buoyant turret]

im having trouble purchasing tark, i put in my card and it said an error code

[woeful mortar]

whats wrong with it?

Are suppressors even good for PVE??

[buoyant turret]

anyone else had this problem

[random thunder]

i found an armor repair kit is it worth selling

[icy terrace]

yo anyone know if when doing psycho sniper and u get the 5 kills without dyeing but u havent reached the required sniper level to complete the quest does next time u die it resets? or does the kills get completed now i just need the required level done

[abstract harness]

hands down the worst suppressor in the game unless you're running a bolt action and u could not care less about recoil
u can get a wave qd with 1 less ergo but twice the recoil comp instead

[fringe plinth]

still the best for scav lootin post nerf?

[icy terrace]

thx 😔

[brazen nimbus]

im a little late but you might be hitting neck/throat, and since that was just changed to the thorax group, you'd have to do 85 damage

[plain whale]

Hey guys I am trying to complete skiers golden swag quest and have been getting rolled at dorms with my ak74 builds shooting 5.45 bt and fmj ammo. I put 7-8 rounds in them and they don’t die. Is there a better weapon I can use considering I don’t have flea and I’m level 1 traders currently

[icy terrace]

nop, u gotta trust your aim and go for hs

[plain whale]

Dang I guess I’ll just deal with the struggle for another 4 levels lol

[icy terrace]

yeep

[patent wadi]

It doesn't sounds like a gun you can only do some much with lvl 1 trader, you can always scav reserve there's plenty of ammo there and you can try to play around the ammo you loot there if you really need to

[surreal dragon]

why cant i ever hear footsteps in this game? im using decent headsets but people can run right next to me and i wont hear them

[full ocean]

i just installed the game got anytips?

[abstract harness]

watch beginners guides on yt

[full ocean]

okay

[topaz forge]

at that point where u cant get any decent ammo u should opt for something with a higher firerate and aim face, higher firerate increases the likelihood of hitting that small target, and gives you more shots to do it before you die, something like a kedr you can get from prapor will be good

[restive cloak]

Anyone up for doing a few runs? I'm relatively new to the game

Feels like I've been getting shit a hell of a lot

[edgy plover]

@full ocean want a hand starting out?

[edgy plover]

I'd be down

[fringe plinth]

im down to do runs with whoever too

just chillin

[restive cloak]

I'm ready when you are

[dull steppe]

hey pros so like i was playing ground zero and there was a 2 man so i got the first guy and his teamate ran in and was behind a car i did hit im prob once or twice but then i threw a stun nade and magically he die

[tame forge]

duos anyone? preferably you speak fluent english and NA

[dull steppe]

does stun nades kill people in this game?

[tame forge]

i suppose if theyre low enough health, blacked out head/already has a concussion perhaps

[rigid gyro]

im down to get a raid in

[dull steppe]

ohh okay thanks

[tame forge]

im not good and still relatively new, thats why im here, i need some help with tasks mainly

dumb stuff that i just cant seem to get done solo

[rigid gyro]

nw ill see if i can help a bit

[tame forge]

feel free to just straight up call me or find a chatroom and lmk which one

[rigid gyro]

sent a dm

[woeful mortar]

I built an M4 What do you think lol

Yes I know I have a scope that has a low first zoom but its easier for me to switch to the secondary because of my control setup

[patent wadi]

It doesn't kill, it can do a slight amount of damage if you actually smack someone in the face with it but the guy was probably very low and bled out

[maiden marlin]

erm, its ok ig

[woeful mortar]

XD speak the harsh truth

[dull steppe]

i lowkey think i did smack him in the face with it lol 😭 but then again it was behind a car

carrying stun nades every raid now

[patent wadi]

10/10 throw you have a bright future lol

[maiden marlin]

@balmy flax gg?

on bowl

[maiden marlin]

i pref this

[toxic zinc]

goofy ah stock

[maiden marlin]

ergo gooning stock

[toxic zinc]

[maiden marlin]

@edgy plover

[maiden marlin]

@edgy plover me next

[fringe plinth]

[edgy plover]

[edgy plover]

sorry you caught me as I was going into a raid

[full ocean]

what vc are we finna be in

[edgy plover]

https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/722945739830853733

[fringe plinth]

@edgy plover i just got back all the stuff from when partizan killed us lol, i got that bugger back today

[teal pulsar]

Just starting out, anyone have any tips? PMC raids have been a stuggle

[toxic zinc]

knowledge is 75% of the game. Try and learn one map first

[teal pulsar]

Thanks

[restive cloak]

Any time you're keen is good for me

[toxic zinc]

just using the interactive maps from the wiki or mapgenie makes a huge difference. Also scav runs are amazing

[teal pulsar]

Is it better to run with a squad?

[toxic zinc]

100% yeah. Solo is great because you can shoot everything and everything you hear is an enemy. But duo/trio is def best to learn and progress imo

just watch out that you dont just run after somebody else

[orchid jackal]

hi can anyone help me do tasks on ground zero? I'm level 1 and new

[ivory zenith]

Yeah idk the games just bugged, the guy before was talking about sight over bore or something then I tapped 2 scavs in the same spot. Must have been lag but it said I did damage to the guy lol

[tardy sphinx]

anyone know a good m4 build for early?

[edgy plover]

what level traders

[tardy sphinx]

1

ngl idk how to level them

[edgy plover]

not really any good options

level them by doing tasks

[edgy plover]

Best level 1 guns:
9mm guns like the Saiga-9 or MP5 have no recoil, they do no damage so you have to aim for the face, but they can be great laser beams
Mosin from Prapor with SP BT is great if you like bolt actions,
KEDR or PPSH are both good for close-range high-damage guns you can spray legs or face with.
AKS-74UB is unlocked after Prapors debut quest, easy to mount optics and tac devices but you have no good ammo to buy for it, but good 5.45 is easy to find (PP, BP, BT, BS)

[tardy sphinx]

15

[edgy plover]

PvE

[normal echo]

M4 is not good early

Need good mods to make it on par with cheaper more budget guns like the mdr

[normal echo]

Lvl 15 I would run an SKS with a 20 round mag and ps ammo

Very good for the money

What's wrong with the SKS

[edgy plover]

what wipe is it lol
sks stinky

[normal echo]

Second best 7.62x39 gun

[normal echo]

It has insane price to performance and PP is mini m80

[edgy plover]

kedr has best price to performance

[normal echo]

One tap helmets comfortably while spending like 100-150k

[normal echo]

I tried running kedr with psv, the ttk is not there IMO

9mm rip was way better

Even in a slower fire rate mp5

[edgy plover]

who does leg meta anymore

kedr face shots

[normal echo]

Well, you do if you wanna kill anyone with kedr

[mint light]

leg meta in 2025 lol

[normal echo]

Yeah thats probably the worst way to use it

[edgy plover]

lmao, 1v1 me kedrs only

[normal echo]

Had a scav kill daily and killed 2 pmcs with leg meta

[mint light]

2 whole pmcs down. well done marine

report back to base tango alpha foxtrot

[normal echo]

1st one very early in raid with an mp5, ate that poor young man and left no crumbs

[edgy plover]

jesus christ it is a marine

[normal echo]

I hate sniping

So not a marine

Fuck tarkov shooter quests

[edgy plover]

SKS main....

[normal echo]

So fucking ass

[normal echo]

SKS decent mid range

Like 40m

[mint light]

i had to use that one back in Fallujah

[edgy plover]

ty 4 ur service

[mint light]

dont need thanks from a civilian too scared to serve bud

[normal echo]

[edgy plover]

👶
^that's me

[dull steppe]

do any of yall still use mira avenue extract

i keep getting killed by sniper mayne

[mint light]

400th case of user error this week

[normal echo]

Are you using the flare correctly

[dull steppe]

yeah i thinkso

literally same way i would of used it back in july when i played

[normal echo]

Are you shooting straight up

[dull steppe]

it used to work

[dull steppe]

that prob was the reason

😭

[normal echo]

If you do you die

Gotta shoot at like a 90 degree angle

Not straight up

If you watch like pestily early wipe videos he most likely uses a flare so you can check the correct angle

Even specifically on gz

[maiden marlin]

why is there only 2k spears off ref

[normal echo]

Shouldn't matter I dont think

[dull steppe]

yeah one more thing

i remember when i was doing this extract before i was using a green flare only

has bsg removed the green flare and there is only the yellow?

[normal echo]

... wut

[dull steppe]

it has same name

lemme send

[normal echo]

You get a green flare on the dead scav at the Mira flare area

Guaranteed per raid

Always been the case

Are you sure you didn't die just cause you used the wrong flare color lmao

[dull steppe]

😭 i was thinking that may have been the problem lol

[normal echo]

You get green flare on Jaeger lvl 1

[dull steppe]

ohhhh

[normal echo]

Are you buying flares off prapor

😭

[dull steppe]

see I don't got jaeger

[dull steppe]

yep!

[normal echo]

There we go

[dull steppe]

💀

[normal echo]

User error into blame the game

A classic

[dull steppe]

😭

[topaz forge]

that ones my favorite

[dull steppe]

i did it only took 4 days but i finished all ground zero quest : D

didn't even bother to take mira ave just went str8 to emercon

[vagrant lava]

What are the best silencers for 545, 556, and 762 rounds for tier 3 and for 4 traders

[normal echo]

Just buy the best in slots off flea, they usually cost the same or cheaper than off traders

For 5.45 it's reactor muzzle and the wafflemaker suppressor onto it

5.56 its glok muzzle and m4sdk supp

7.62x39 its the ak308 adapter and QDC 762 muzzle and suppressor for that

And 7.62x51 its the same muzzle and supp, no adapter

[toxic zinc]

theres a dead body right at mira ave which always has a green flare to loot. So you dont need jaeger unlocked 🙂

[pearl copper]

wait what, that's cool, didn't know that

[tardy sphinx]

whats a decent scope for it?

[toxic zinc]

PSO is decent

[normal echo]

Pso is not decent, I like the monstrum prism 2.5x on the short mount

Or the bravo with a pk06 on top for close range

[toxic zinc]

PSO has a good reticle and no black effect and is really really cheap

also bravo4 with pk06 over an ff3 is criminal

[normal echo]

Too zoomed in IMO

[normal echo]

Same shit

Delta point best low profile sight

[toxic zinc]

no its really not

PK06 has way more sway to it

[normal echo]

It really is, same blurry shit

[toxic zinc]

also ff3 has the best low profile

[normal echo]

Delta point is very crisp

[normal echo]

Both of them are

[toxic zinc]

nuh uh

leifern did you prestige yet?

bosses have been so nice to me ngl

im like 1 blind pmc kill away from kappa atm and will insta prestige

20% spawn chance is like tripple from what we had last wipe at this point in wipe

[normal echo]

Get that ks23

[toxic zinc]

I got 21 Zvezda crafted and many Altyns left 🙂

[normal echo]

Get prestige then

[toxic zinc]

well im at work rn so its kinda hard u know

[normal echo]

Excuses

[undone drum]

how u never see PMCs. Ligthouse is always full for me

[normal echo]

Full of player scavs more like lmao

I would see one PMC and like 5 or 6 player scavs rushing wtp across the main bridge

[undone drum]

Nah, i help a lot of people do their 5 quests there

on PMC

[fervent sapphire]

anyone need a hand?

[wary pewter]

Is the RPG still not in the game? Coming back from a week off.

[silver falcon]

Can someone Tell me, the quest "Rite of Passage" where you have to kill 10 scavs at the new and the old gas station, does it mean i have to be inside the station or the scavs. Can someone help me pls

[tidal lagoon]

scavs inside the gas station area

[kindred grotto]

no

did the taskline no rpg nikita1!!! where rpg!!!

[silver falcon]

So in theory i can just snipe them?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

if u get them to spawn in the first place

[dry flint]

You only need to have unsurpressed guns and maybe 1 or 2 scavs in that area. After you kill them, they pile up.

[white sun]

Anyone know where to get sewing kits

Have trouble finding them

[dry flint]

Try the back of goshan in interchange. Its almost a guarantee

[white sun]

Ok thanks

[dry flint]

This area at the back specifically. Has tons of loose spawns and I see sewing kits and hand drills spawn there all the time.

They are on shelves and toolboxes.

[low ginkgo]

why are my extracts red?

damn, ok thx

[dry flint]

This is why I hate how they added transits. If you dont know about it, you get randomly forced in the next raid.

[low ginkgo]

i thought it was a quest when interact popped up lol

yh i was heading to path to shoreline on lighthosue

[arctic summit]

hello i am new looking for ppl to play with doing some quests i am stuck at atm

[tacit hearth]

hey all i need some help i cant registrer on the tarkov site

[white sun]

thanks man

[solar wasp]

Does anyone have a definitive answer to this: old info on release of the goons said they don't spawn on other maps when they are at a location, the wiki says this isn't true. I thought it depended on server?

[marsh wagon]

HOw do i get hand drills? Been playing for a while now still havent found a SINGLE one, only got a single one from gunsmith.

[dry flint]

Interchange, I got plenty from there even when I am looking for nuts and bolts.

They can spawn in both the tech stores and the misc item spawns in OLI and Goshan.

[marsh wagon]

electric drills

Im stupid

[dry flint]

Same thing

This area in the back of goshan practically has a 100% spawn chance for one

[marsh wagon]

thanks alot

have rlly been struggling

[undone drum]

i have never seen people here arguing,
"goons on shoreline" - "no goons, on ligthouse"

[undone drum]

what are you stuck at?

[undone drum]

once, then you learn

[dry flint]

I did it once, I learned but I still got hit a second time since they moved them around from their original placements/added new ones

[undone drum]

Ah damn, right

[dry flint]

Sometimes you just click "interact" when prompted ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[undone drum]

You can always Alt-F4 when screen goes dark and be back at stash with full gear, but 🤐

[vagrant lava]

Thank you. I’ll be saving them to a preset!!

[white sun]

Man

Cant find any searched like 3 times already

[tranquil talon]

anyone having server connection lost only when running pmc?

[white sun]

Are you sure its 100 percent all i find is food on scav runs

Should i do pmc run?

[sinful crag]

new to game, lvl 11 rn anyone tryna play?

[stark shuttle]

So, with the THICC case for jaeger all I have to do is get him to LL4, and it unlocks, or is it quest locked? Also how to I get the blue folder barter for a thicc?

[open flower]

this is the first wipe ive had craszy performance issues and crazy frame drops when scoping in, does anyone know whats causing it?

[patent wadi]

Its not jaeger but therapist and yes it unlocks at LL4 automatically, blue folder barter is at peacekeeper after special equipment

[patent wadi]

Its a big thing this wipe everyone as had major peformance issues youre not alone

[stark shuttle]

Appreciate the info, thanks

[wicked shell]

Any suggestions on where to find tool sets?

[stark shuttle]

Interchange, back side of goshen, many tool boxes/tool spawns

[wicked shell]

Thanks

[vagrant lava]

can i craft a electric drill?

[short bay]

no

[bold kernel]

guys where did u find the most rollers?

[normal echo]

inside safes

[zenith shore]

looking for squad to play with

[normal echo]

shoreline has a decent scav route for unlocked safes

[patent wadi]

You can find people in #pvp-lfg

[bold kernel]

did u see video about the route or?

[normal echo]

?

[icy thistle]

Any sherpa on?

[wintry depot]

Hello

Im fairly new 300h, 3kd

But I cant no more today

I play reserve at night

3 raids - 3 times killed by account with 100h playtime, 40+lvl and 10+kd

one tap head eyes even from behind

[north bear]

What would you like assistance with? 😛

[wintry depot]

1. I cant hear enemies

2. Getting shot in the eyes from behind???

3. wtf is with this accounts? are they legit?

[north bear]

1. That's Tarkov Audio
2. Perhaps not behind or the screen lies to you
3. Maybe legit maybe not?

[wintry depot]

to the first point - I was looting and doing breaks to listen to the surrounding and bro with 20kd and 100h playtime sneak up to me with no sound

I dont know how I can improve

to not die like this

[normal echo]

hell no

[north bear]

You keep going or you quit the game, this is just tarkov

[wintry depot]

Yes but I want to improve

But today with most deaths I dont know what i did wrong

[north bear]

If it's a "legit" cheater, then it's hard to improve 😉

[sharp tinsel]

Anyone i can friend that has a gym i can use in hideout? just started playing but want to maximize traning 🙂

[normal echo]

you went reserve

dogshit map

[north bear]

Check dm

[wintry depot]

Other day I hade beutifull runs on night reserve - killing chads with shit ammo, looting locked rooms and no weird deaths

sometimes it looks like there is some kind of enjoyment based matchmaking

[north bear]

Yes, you obviously had way too much fun yestoday ;P Now you must pay up for it

[wintry depot]

so be it, gonna rush office with only krk

[bold kernel]

i mean is there a video or guide for the route?

[normal echo]

give me a minute i can make one for you after this arena game

do you know your way around shoreline?

[bold kernel]

no but it dosent mean i cant

[tight bane]

i really wanna learn the maps more

but its hard to cuz when i am looking around and trying to learn lets sayy interchange

some pmc or scav just shoots me

like let me learn damnit

[patent wadi]

You can do offline raid without pmc or even AI

[grizzled radish]

anyone wanna play? im new but lets learn together. HMU

[normal echo]

you can do offline raids

[wintry depot]

Is tarkov server locked? I mean if I live in Europe, I play on european server only?

[tight bane]

sure bro

[wintry depot]

And can I post picture of a profile here? I need an opinion if im just mad or its really something not right

(my print screen dont work in tarkov idk why)

[patent wadi]

You can play different servers but iirc if you have 300+ ping you get kicked out of the raid

And yes you can post a picture of your profile

[wintry depot]

My killer

something like this killed me 3 times in a row

[normal echo]

classic

[wintry depot]

Could it be just an alt account of some pro?

[patent wadi]

It can be an alt so its hard to say without a clip

[normal echo]

@bold kernel

these spots have unlocked safes

[wintry depot]

Whats the best map for loot runs? Even with locked rooms?

[normal echo]

the unlocked cottage on the left side, there's two but only 1 is unlocked
the burning gas station: look up a guide on how to get inside and loot it without dying
pier and weather station are fairly straight forward

you can hit these on scav

[bold kernel]

thx bro

btw when will i get the quests to regain the rep with therapist and prapor?

cuz i didnt get it when i copmleted chem part 4

nvm i needed to restard the game

[pale wave]

anyone needs help with anything?

[pale wave]

right after completing chemicals 4

[ionic flare]

can anyone help me with some tasks?

[bold kernel]

yea its done

[pale wave]

EU?

[wintry depot]

is 5.45x39 worth using? played with it some time but even BT-BP seems like not doing much compared to low tier 7.62

I read its because low flesh dmg?

[pale wave]

its not too good no

BP works

[wintry depot]

whats better for my broke ass

except ref I have minimum second lvl on all traders

[pale wave]

use whatever you have

me right now

[wintry depot]

stocked up on 700 bt

[pale wave]

then use it

honestly it doesn't really matter if you aim right

I've been successful with 545 PS lol

[wintry depot]

Depends on the weapon, I cant aim with aksu

I fell like mid range doesnt exist with this weapon

[pale wave]

mid works, long maybe not so much

[wintry depot]

Too much recoil for me

[orchid jackal]

hi looking for people that can help on on ground zero for some tasks

[wicked shell]

Whats the best ammo type (pen/dmg) for cheap. Want to build a gun based on ammo available on flea or with level 2 traders thats cheaper and still solid.

[pale wave]

VSK with SPP

[wicked shell]

Okay any other guns you would recommend with SPP?

[bold kernel]

can someone find a video how to get to the safe in fire gas on shoreline, all the vids that i am finding are outdated

[low ginkgo]

What’s the shotgun ammo meta atm?

[pale wave]

none that yo ucan use at low level

but SR3/VSS are best guns

[wintry depot]

I had good luck doing setup with armor piercing slug

That red thing

[wicked shell]

Thanks

[low ginkgo]

AP-20?

[pale wave]

50 BMG

[deep wraith]

I recently got this game does anyone have any tips for me?

[short bay]

i tried shooting without supressor at the walls but they ignore it

[pale wave]

damn, what a fuckin nolife

[toxic zinc]

💀

[wicked shell]

Grenade maybe?

[short bay]

havent tried that one will do

[pale wave]

nah gg man its very good

gonna prestige now?

[toxic zinc]

im gonna do some night time factory raids on nigeria while my buddy does the same

and then prestige

[pale wave]

honestly prestige kinda sucks

not a lot of peopel play anymore so the PVP tasks are endless

[bold kernel]

what are good scopes for mp 18 ?

[pale wave]

anything you like

why do you want to use that shit gun btw? lol

[toxic zinc]

@pale wave do you get website gifts again after prestige? Like the streamer box

[pale wave]

dont think so

[toxic zinc]

thats so ass

rate the kit @pale wave ?

[pale wave]

lmfao

[pale wave]

seriously prestige is so bad

[toxic zinc]

I will enjoy it

[pale wave]

4 customs raids, 0 PMC met, specifically been looking for them too

its dumb af

[toxic zinc]

I have another like 120 days to get kappa again

gonna be a walk in the park

[pale wave]

the PVP tasks are unbearable

[maiden marlin]

sacrifice it

[maiden marlin]

non early wipe pvp moment

[woeful mortar]

So what are the rules for Bosses in PVE, Because I did a transit raid second raid I ran into Partiszan and then got killed later by The Goons

[surreal dragon]

if i craft something does it count as "found in raid"?

[dusty gazelle]

yea

[surreal dragon]

it does

bet

[woeful mortar]

easiest way to get some tasks done lol

buy the items you need to craft with off the flee then craft it and trade it

[graceful yew]

i'm actually wondering, does anyone know of temporarily items that were in the game that are pretty awesome to use? like fireworks and blue flare. does anyone know anything else?

[velvet egret]

i kept my santa terraframe bag

[icy terrace]

anyone found a way to know if the boss spawned?

having a quest that can only be completed if the rng gods are on your side is draining

[dusty gazelle]

[surreal dragon]

IM SO CLOSE TO A STASH UPGRADE BUT I NEED 4 WD-40 100ml cans

and i only have 2 400ml cans, AND I CANT EVEN CRAFT THE 100ml CANS CAUSE I DONT HAVE LAVATORY lv2

and NekoBoi i didnt mean to send that as a reply to your message lol

[pale wave]

yeah honestly I think this game without wipes is jsut going to slowly die

[pale wave]

#pve-chat

[pale wave]

ahh those small ones are sooo hard ot find. and when you dont need them you find 2 a raid lol

safest bet is to loot until you either have them or enough to build lavatory 2

[surreal dragon]

bro i SWEAR THATS HOW LUCK BE HITTIN ME, before i knew about the generator i would find like 7 spark plugs a raid and never grab them, but once i found out the generator was the main source of crafting things i kinda cared so i wanted to craft it. But later found out u need a spark plug and after like 50 hours of searching i finally found ONE

[pale wave]

[wintry depot]

really?

isnt like month since the wipe?

[deep condor]

hello i just played woods and un roadblock extract didnt work even thought it said it does work, i just lost 1 mil of loot

[topaz forge]

did you interact with one of the map transits

[cinder moat]

Hmmmm

[deep condor]

no went straight to the exfil

[topaz forge]

damn

[untold delta]

Does anyone know how I can revert the game back to 0.2? I am getting like 60 less FPS

with modern hardware

[undone drum]

how much ram u have?

[iron berry]

guys how i can report a person who want to hack and kill me?

is from this server

[topaz forge]

#discord-mod-mail

[slender dew]

who wants to hack and kill you>?

[surreal dragon]

bro i feel so bad for this guy i killed lol, i shot him like 40 times but they didnt register because for some reason i had packet issues. GOT KICKED FROM THE LOBBY (packet loss), i re-connected to him camping my disconnect spot. I spawn in and kill him lol

[hoary falcon]

that's crazy
kinda nice he didn't kill you tho

[surreal dragon]

we were "fighting" before i disconnected so he had it out for me. but i dont think he saw me reconnect cause he was deep in some foliage

[hoary falcon]

dude was just hard rattin
got what he deserved lol

[surreal dragon]

ik, its just how do you die to a person you are "spawn" camping

he had a decent kit too

that was his gun

[hoary falcon]

gyat damn

yea wow he's pissed

[surreal dragon]

is the like a god teir gun?

tier*

[hoary falcon]

seems pretty meta as far as AK's go, expect the suppressor

[deep wraith]

Does anyone wanna join a vc with me and my friend we’re new to the game and need some advice on getting better at the game

[surreal dragon]

idk much about the guns in this game

i only got like 60 hrs

[edgy plover]

I'm down

[deep wraith]

which one you want to join

[edgy plover]

Shoot me a dm

We can hop in a call or whatever

[hushed snow]

anyone wanna sherpa on ground zero? Ive died over and over on that map

[final frigate]

Why cant I buy the ZeusPro from Jeagar level4?

[patent wadi]

Its locked behind kaban hunt quest and you can barter it for a ledx not outright buy it, if you did it but cant see it restart the game sometime the game wont give you unlocked items right away

[final frigate]

Oh yeah ur right I see it now

It should mention that on the wiki

[patent wadi]

Mention what?

[final frigate]

That it's quest locked

[patent wadi]

It does

[final frigate]

You're right

I was wrong then. I completely overlooked that

Thanks again!

[patent wadi]

No problem happens to the best of us

[twilit zealot]

why can’t i turn this in for gunsmith

[undone drum]

what part?

[twilit zealot]

3 i think

[undone drum]

checked tarkov wiki already?
just google tarkov wiki gunsmith 2

[twilit zealot]

meets all requirements and i used the exact parts it recommended

[patent wadi]

Part 3 is a MP5

[idle bluff]

Wrong weapon, you're using a AKS74UN

It needs to be a standard AKS-74U

[twilit zealot]

Oh shit

does prapor sell that?

[idle bluff]

You also don't have a stock at all.

[twilit zealot]

yeah it needed to be 6 spaces

[idle bluff]

Yes, but check your mail from Mechanic, he should've given you one with the quest

[idle bluff]

You fold the stock and that reduces the length

[icy terrace]

where to check boss spawn chance?

[idle bluff]

On the maps, the boss page, or each boss' page

[undone drum]

always check the "inspect view", you will see whats wrong on first glance usually

[undone drum]

on tarkov wiki

[idle bluff]

Yeah I should've specified that

[icy terrace]

is it trusthworthy tho? whos the source

[maiden marlin]

[topaz forge]

people who turned in the quest earlier in the wipe lol

it is trustworthy

[icy terrace]

how in gods green earth do they come up with the % lol

[undone drum]

wiki is the most reliable source

[icy terrace]

its either datamined or devs give them

[topaz forge]

oh my fault i thought you were talking about the gunsmith shit

[icy terrace]

oh no worries

[topaz forge]

im not sure how they get boss spawn %s

i should start reading before i answer shit lmao

[undone drum]

ask them here #wiki-chat

[icy terrace]

i wanna know if its datamined or they give the % away somewhere

[icy terrace]

thxx

[topaz forge]

im pretty certain its not datamined because they actually communicate with devs about things and the devs do not like people datamining

[odd plover]

So, I've mostly been doing PVE Scav runs to figure out what I'm doing.. and I know that not ALL scavs are on the same side.. but is there a way to identify which ones are gonna start shooting at me before I get one tapped?

[patent wadi]

All scav on PvE are on the same side, in PvP scav can kill each other because players kill each other, ther main way to tell scav from other faction is clothing / loadouts you should also be able to voiceline and if you hear english theyre bad people

[odd plover]

Huh.. could have sworn I got attacked out of no where on customs by a scav.. but I also didn't hear them talk at all... so, that could have been it

[patent wadi]

Hard to tell, do you remember the name of the person who killed you? Scavs dont attack unless provoked usuallu by shooting at them, giving them orders/giving them the middle finger and have low scav karma

[odd plover]

Just started last night, so I don't think Karma should be low, and I didn't fire any shots... name eludes me, but it was probably NPC PMC and I just didn't recognize them

[weak talon]

is it worth buying grumpy key from ref?

[idle bluff]

I'm a wiki editor, we're official and in communication with BSG. You can trust all the numbers on the wiki

[weak talon]

the wiki has saved me more than most people I talked to could

[icy terrace]

So bsg says "boss spawn chances are up to 20%" and u just edit the wiki to what they say? Do they provide any kind of proof?

[undone drum]

[icy terrace]

its a genuine question what u tripping for?

[weak talon]

you are able to test it yourself on a few offline runs

[icy terrace]

i rather go for actual raids then go for some test runs i just want to know since the whole datamining incident

Because before the dude datamined or smth and provided screenshots of the data

[idle bluff]

That person is not affiliated with the wiki team. The information on the wiki accurately represents data in game, though there's times during updates they're not updated immediately depending on our workload

[icy terrace]

yeah thank u for all of your work btw gods work really

but does bsg provide proof that the changes are true like screenshots of the code or smth like that? or do you trust their word (not that i think they are lying, they have no reason to even)

[dull steppe]

is ref pestily in tarkov?

[inner mountain]

does anyone know where to find Advanced Electronic Materials textbook on labs

[idle bluff]

Yeah I can't go into detail but we have proof and absolute faith in what we put up

[idle bluff]

You can check the safes on labs or lighthouse, they have a very low spawn chance but it's possible. The most surefire way is from Lightkeeper

[icy terrace]

thanks for answering tho keep up the work absolute units

[odd plover]

Is it generally considered better practice to focus on just learning the maps early, focusing on one at a time, or should I be focusing on something else instead?

[undone drum]

yes, specially ground zero, woods, customs
you can use practise mode to not loose any gear

[odd plover]

Sounds good, thanks, I've been using scav mode too, in the ever vain hope that maybe I'll get out with something

[idle bluff]

Utilize scav mode as much as you can, not only to learn the maps but to gain gear in general or quest items. You won't lose anything - the worst that happens is you gain nothing

[odd plover]

Yeah, been trying to Scav Factory... as its small, and I know where at least one extract is

[errant pier]

Would interchange be a bad place to learn to begin with? Haven’t played since 2021 and only about 10hrs total play time ever

[patent wadi]

I would recomment to learn ground zero, custom and woods these are where your first tasks will be, remember that you can do offline raids too

[errant pier]

I’m currently doing PvE is that okay to use to learn?

[normal echo]

Won't teach you the dynamics of a live raid but will teach you how the game works

Like won't show you hot spots, common rotation routes, PMC spawns and all that but you will learn how to play

[patent wadi]

Of course nothing wrong with that it will teach you all you need to know about quests and maps without being hassled by players

[errant pier]

Is it better to learn extractions first then do live raids?

[normal echo]

Sure

You wanna learn how to get out before you are in an opportunity where you absolutely need to get out that raid lol

[errant pier]

Got it. Also I’m i late in the wipe? I know from I remember if I’m late I have a huge disadvantage

[idle bluff]

Yes you are

[patent wadi]

Its PvE it doesnt matter

[errant pier]

I guess I’ll do PvE only for now then. Thanks

[fervent sapphire]

Unless you wanna run duo PvP

[normal echo]

Yes but if you're new you weren't gonna win many fights anyway

[errant pier]

Yeah I’ll take the wipe to learn controls and map knowledge. Thank you!

[stray pewter]

Anyone trying to teach me how to play this? Or any other beginners want to PVP and just wing it?

I only know Customs and Ground Zero map kinda...

[idle bluff]

You can have a look in #pvp-lfg to find other people to play with. Alternatively check out our Sherpa program meant to help new players #beginners-assistance message

[fervent sapphire]

im down

[stray pewter]

Thank you.

[whole elm]

im also brand new and still learning the ropes. lmk if yall got room for a 3rd

[primal gate]

hello im new and i need a sherpa

[lapis pendant]

Sherpa available? Wanting to get really good at this game but I'm struggling with extractions

[idle bluff]

Better to ask iin Sherpa Hub #beginners-assistance message

[lapis pendant]

Thank you!

[white sun]

Where do we find dry fuel

[normal echo]

Large technical supply crates or duffle bags, the underground parking lot on ground zero has a lot of big tech crates

I recommend scavving into there

[white sun]

Ok thanks

[edgy plover]

I always find it in woods at the train depot and in the new bunker

[white sun]

Ok thanks

Ill check those out

[pale wave]

to go in the depot you'll need to take the BTR. A LOT of good loot there

[edgy plover]

btr ride only costs a bit, take like 50k in case you want to transfer stuff back to stash

[normal echo]

Is that even true

[edgy plover]

idk exactly the difference between bear and usec but there is difference
not sure if bear has a bigger 'return to stash' box

10% cheaper btr
god for a russian game they really don't give the BEARs shit

a million AK's in the game and the only one people really like is the american clone

[pale wave]

I went once and haven't played since lol

[agile wyvern]

Where do you get the items out of the cultist circle? It says my gift is ready but I don't see any items

[edgy plover]

prob just bugged for ou

it's the same place you put the itmes

[agile wyvern]

what

so I just lost my shit then?

[edgy plover]

yea that happens

[agile wyvern]

first time ever using it lol, what a waste

[edgy plover]

welcome to tarkov

[fringe plinth]

just got camped trying to extract woods with poster 3 times in a row 🤣🤣

the tarkoving is heavy tonight

[dry flint]

usec camp is a hotspot, so its a given.

[fringe plinth]

all 3 times were at different extracts 😭😭 its cause i spawned usec camp 3 times in a row the game had to make me work for it

i respect it but it’s painful

[dry flint]

Try doing it at night

[fringe plinth]

word, you dont think ill just get thermal’d?

[dry flint]

I mean its a posibility, but its safer

[fringe plinth]

bet, i’ll try

[slender dew]

as stated, its possible, but so is it during the day just the same. Not very likely. Generally questing is safer at night

[dry flint]

Only exception is interchange since there are quests that require PMC kills at night and its the "easiest" map for night fights.

[white sun]

Bro

Just found a tank battery and like 4 pressure gauges

Just to die at train depot from overweight jump

Gg i guess

Welcome to tarkov

[edgy plover]

gotta throw that bag down first

[white sun]

Nah

You know the jump

Between the train

I fell down that

Then got fucked up by sniper

Sad

I had un roadblock too

[edgy plover]

oof

[white sun]

Shit happens i guess

[somber falcon]

I keep getting picked off on ground zero, im fine inside the buildings, but i get rekt in the streets trying to find the exits x.x

[slender dew]

avoind the streets unless you are crossing them

[dry flint]

I remember doing something similar in lighthouse after killing all rogues. Theres a small jump to an awning to get to the ground quicker, but I forgot to drop my bag and died.

[pallid kelp]

hey guys is there a way to report a bug? i see the support page but not sure how to submit a report

[runic lantern]

Hello guys, im new and im afraid of using DLSS4 ive heard i can get banned for using it?

[pallid kelp]

okay thanks i prob need to close game to see it

[normal echo]

Unlikely but apparently the stance right now is if battle eye bans you, ur on your own

[dry flint]

I wouldnt risk it since I heard to install it you would need to "inject" the DLL's into the game.

[normal echo]

The nvidia app does that for you but yeah

[dry flint]

Is it true that DLSS4 is basically frame gen? I have frame gen on my AMD drivers but I turned it off since the FPS drops/stutters are way more noticable.

[runic lantern]

frame gen is another thing.

[dry flint]

I see, so just upscaling like previous iterrations.

[runic lantern]

but far better

[rustic hollow]

Anyone willing to help me complete my quest on ground?

[pale wave]

they should boost all 545 pen

make it worth using compared to faster shooting other guns

[limpid sigil]

545 is goated just don’t body aim

[normal echo]

Not the pen thats the issue

The damage is bad, combined with the fire rate being slow

The DPS gets super low

[normal echo]

Then use any other gun cause they can one hit the head all the same lol

[limpid sigil]

Exactly it’s all preference

I literally only run 556 with no issues

[dry flint]

5.45 has no issues with pen, its the actual flesh damage thats an issue. Combine that with "low" RPM guns, its not quick to put someone down with 5.45

[brisk raft]

Guys what gun do yall rekomend playing with thats cheap and good ?

[normal echo]

"Chatgpt, rephrase what Xalrider said"

[normal echo]

SKS with PS ammo

[dry flint]

My discord loaded up to his message, didnt notice that there were already answers lol

[brisk raft]

The sks is fire ! but im looking for full auto. In arena i love the scar but its to expencive

[normal echo]

556 guns aren't that cheap

Or effective when cheap

You can try the MDR I guess

[remote kettle]

I just hope it doesn’t end up suffering from the 9mm vector issue, where 1 really good gun leads to the caliber as a whole being held back to not make that one gun busted

[brisk raft]

Ok ill chek it out thanks !

[tidal lagoon]

so basically cheap and good dont really go together

[dry flint]

AUG A3 is still pretty Okay even when nerfed.

[normal echo]

How is 9mm held back?

[normal echo]

MDR better IMO after the nerfs

[brisk raft]

ill try both of them out

[dry flint]

I like how cheap Aug is tho

40-50k for base gun and theres a 30k suppressor thats for aug only.

[brisk raft]

And when it comes to body armour, what should i rock? is lvl 4 enough?

[remote kettle]

When the vector was initially released they nerfed 9mm as a whole to halt the vector from being the meta pick 11/10, and since 9mm really hasn’t recovered. Outside of headtapping the vector is still the only way to effectively use the caliber without legmeta

[normal echo]

Thats Aug a1 no?

[tidal lagoon]

4 is a minimum

[brisk raft]

Ok so 4 minimum

[tidal lagoon]

yea

[normal echo]

How did they nerf the caliber is what I'm asking

[brisk raft]

got i t

[dry flint]

no, aug a1 is like 30k'ish. Both aug a3 and the black variant are at 40k-50k. I would suggest getting the regular tan varaint as it has the 20ich barrel by default.

[limpid sigil]

4 minimum. Personally leave your back plate a 4 and front the best you have

[normal echo]

Not on flea

Gotta unlock

[remote kettle]

How do you think they nerf a caliber? Damage and pen down

[dry flint]

I get Lvl5 Br5 plates for like 20k each with Ragman lvl 4 lol

[brisk raft]

Got it

[normal echo]

I just like the MDR, 20k for ultra 5 supp, 9k foregrip for better recoil than Aug and takes regular 556 mags

[normal echo]

The pen is fine though, I dont know you physically can make a better round than pbp in game right now, and that pen is insanely unrealistic anyway

[wind pine]

OTV from ref is cheap and comes lvl 4

[brisk raft]

Guys what should i have in my Secure container? right now i have meds. like salewa morphine and maby keys. i have the 2x3 case

[normal echo]

9mm isn't going through armor a .44 mag didn't go through

[normal echo]

Meds and keys is the usual, maybe money for car extract

[brisk raft]

Yeah iv been rockin that one

[tidal lagoon]

extra ammo for mags usually, but if its cheap ammo then its not that important

[wind pine]

Sounds about right definitely being a stack of ammo too tho

[brisk raft]

I have seen some people have like the thing that makes blacked out limbs work again. should i get that and throw it in there

[normal echo]

What I do with a small container is carry a stack of shit ammo in pockets

[remote kettle]

dont use the realism argument for bullet stats, it’s dead and buried pointless lol

[normal echo]

Yes absolutely

[wind pine]

Yeah definitely bring a CMS or Surv12 kit

Black stomach or legs can make the raid effectively over

[normal echo]

Not really but ok, a 55 pen 9mm round would make zero sense

[brisk raft]

surv12 kit is the thing im talking about i think. Thanks guys !

[normal echo]

Use a cms instead

Less slots for similar effect

[brisk raft]

Aug, Mdr , good amo, surv12 kit

[brisk raft]

ok ill check it out

[short bay]

the streamer case, reward from Fences quest. Does it reset on wipe?

[tidal lagoon]

no one cares if something makes sense, all that matters is balance of it

[tidal lagoon]

yes u lose it

[normal echo]

Yes

[remote kettle]

It is. greentip 5.56 shouldnt struggle against a class 4 plate like it does. A ballistic helmet isn’t gonna stop a single rifle round.

arguing realism when it comes to the balancing is definitely pointless, because bsg have long abandoned that.

[brisk raft]

When it comes to hideout. is there something i MUST have or do i just uppgrade as i go?

[tidal lagoon]

workbench lvl 1 is a must

[brisk raft]

yeah im on lvl 3 now

[tidal lagoon]

oh

[short bay]

Workbench, Lavatory and Med station will help you greatly for completing quests because crafted items are found in raid

[normal echo]

Upgrade hideout as you progress Because you can skip many tedious fetch quests by crafting items you need, because crafted items count as found in raid

[tidal lagoon]

ig air filtering unit/btc farm

[normal echo]

Like salewa kits, morphines

[brisk raft]

I got most of the things to at least level 1-2. Now im on gym just need more drills

[remote kettle]

👆

[tidal lagoon]

interesting

[normal echo]

I've played for 5 wipes and saw this every single wipe, fuckinf embarrassing devs

[brisk raft]

Perfect just ned to watch some yt videos so i know were to find the things for it. I saw i can craft the filter

[short bay]

Interchange

[normal echo]

It keeps working and breaking

[tidal lagoon]

getting power filters is gonna be your main challenge, and just use the wiki to find where items spawn dont waste ur time on a yt video for that

[brisk raft]

tnx m8. Ill have to learn the map first

[normal echo]

I think its pretty much agreed upon that certain maps have different loot pools right?

[tidal lagoon]

yes and no

[normal echo]

Like I'm much more likely to get an mpowefilter out of a tech crate on reserve than interchange

[brisk raft]

Yeah man i wasted 10 days looking for tp-200 TNT when i could have done quests and get it in a day

[tidal lagoon]

for a few items yes, pfilters u will find on reserve,customs,woods dont think u can find them on LH

[normal echo]

Which is dumb as fuck in my opinion

Its a war zone, military tech should be all over the place

[tidal lagoon]

i dont think its a problem, but the spawn rate of them are dumb af rn had a teammate look for days for 2 of them

[normal echo]

Thats pretty quick

[brisk raft]

Still getting so shat on, on this game HAHA but man its fun

[tidal lagoon]

trak

sean quit early in the wipe

[normal echo]

3 days straight scavving shoreline and looting like 30 toolboxes plus checking loose tool spawns on shoreline for an electric drill

[undone drum]

Play unpredictable

[tidal lagoon]

shouldnt be more than 1 day

[dry flint]

you are looking at the wrong map. Technical items like that can be easily found in Interchange.

[normal echo]

They spawned on shoreline a lot too

They spawn in toolboxes

And I looted about 30 every single raid

They may have just nerfed loot that hard

[dry flint]

Nah, its just that if BSG knows you need 1 specific thing. They somehow coded it to make it spawn less frequently.

I am currently bawling my eyes out for some Power supplies for bitcoin

[normal echo]

Had that last wipe

No flash drives for so long I ended up crafting them

Set the craft

Go shoreline, 2 drives in 1 safe

[short bay]

Reserve, bunch of drawers everywhere

[dry flint]

Personally got mine doing setup in Customs. I just bought all the safe room keys and got my flash drives there.

[rustic hollow]

Me as well

[normal echo]

Bro, you really think I wasn't doing that?

Legit probably over a thousand of them that wipe

[dry flint]

drawers are not reliable way to get them. Reserve has plenty of them but the lootpool in drawers is too varied to justify looking for one specific item. Its best to just look in safes instead.

[undone drum]

I am the only one, who crafted them?

[tidal lagoon]

probably

[slender dew]

found mine, but I also started saving them from day 1. Once I got the quest instantly turned in. Salewas took me absolutely forever

[normal echo]

I did that new years quest to kill 10 pmcs while wearing a Santa beard and hat

Gave 2 GPUs too and 3 drives

Did that in 1 session somehow

Was a good day that day

That was the food one right

Kinda funny

They removed jars of pickles

Yet game needs them for new scope barter

[pale wave]

[short bay]

why is it that, whenever i set up a preset, the game buys me parts instead of the whole weapon that is available at the trader

i cannot comprehend how the preset options work

i just buy a shotgun, jeger has it ready, why does it split it into parts and i even have some extra parts that the game made me pay for without having use for them

so preset is useless and bugged ?

[wind pine]

Are you using loadout preset or a weapon preset ?

[short bay]

it buys me the rig, ammo, armor etc but weapons, it messes them up

loadout

[wind pine]

Yeah it's hella dumb bro

Idk anyone that uses it

Just use weapon presets

[dense hamlet]

maybe cause it doesnt work properly 😊 its nowhere near customizeable enouhh

[tidal lagoon]

couldve been a great feature but has too many issues that make it waste of time

[dense hamlet]

yup agreed

if they made it work properly, and gave u the option to ex. not use safe pouch, special slots and so on it would be great

[normal echo]

Buy the gun first then use the ppreset

[tidal lagoon]

yea

hate how it replaes stuff in pouch like keys with full use ones

[dense hamlet]

yup, even saves roubles in ur docs case 💀💀

[undone drum]

what gun?

let me cook

i know propably what the issue is

[undone drum]

the traders might not sell the gun and its just available on flea
But on flea the condition migth be under 98%
Unlick the 98% option might fix it

[short bay]

just a regular shotgun from jeger

[normal echo]

no

that's not the issue, the thing isj ust bugged

if you buy the gun first, it does the preset thing correctly

for no reason, really

[winter gale]

anyone know the best place to get a vpx

[normal echo]

like if you have a preset with a VPO-215 bolt action, and it has scope on it

and do the preset without having one in your stash first, it would buy the vpo, buy a railed dust cover that's already on the gun, same for irons, and leave excess stuff in ur stash

[normal echo]

lighthouse or labs, unfortunately, you can also do the quest to kill shturman

[winter gale]

ok

[wind pine]

Cultist circle got me a lot of those tech items

All 4 of my cofdm for network provider came from it lol

[summer pawn]

incase someone wants to make some quick money, no one sells survey maps

[normal echo]

pve?

[summer pawn]

pvp

no offers on pvp for topographic survey maps

[normal echo]

...doesn't mean people would buy them tho

[summer pawn]

few got sold +1 mil

[normal echo]

idk who tf is buying them

are they not looking at the prices lmao

[summer pawn]

i mean, if i would have roubles and needed todo the task, i would buy them

[normal echo]

what task

[summer pawn]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/The_Good_Times_-_Part_1

[undone drum]

Ligthouse is easier tbh. Look up the water treatment valuable spawns on youtube
Hit it at night. As USEC you don´t need to kill Rogues at all to hit most of the open spawns

[undone drum]

I would predict no one will buy them
Anything you can barter them is not worth 1 Mio

[summer dome]

im a relatively new player in pvp. does anyone one have any tips for like, small goals or whatever. rn im just aiming at maxing my hideout but its super hard lol

[summer pawn]

i guess its a matter of being desperate and money available, my mate bought the 1 mil ones since hes on the task xd

[undone drum]

I see

[summer pawn]

he got 90 mil, and doesnt care xdd

[undone drum]

Well, come back, tag me, if sold or not

[undone drum]

right

Scam them billioners

[summer pawn]

just look at his kit ahahhaa, from the gun and so on

[undone drum]

I died to many times with this shitty mask on

but quest requires

[forest pebble]

Been doing scav runs to build up some money and suddenly I've stopped gaining exp from the runs ? Anyone got more info on this ?

[wind pine]

You don't get exp from scav runs

Afaik

[tidal lagoon]

yea u dont

[remote kettle]

you do for your scav, not for your pmc tho

[forest pebble]

Could have sworn i have been tbh

[wind pine]

There's a separate XP bar and skills for your scav character

From your PMC

[forest pebble]

Where can I see my scavs level ? And what does it effect for my scav ?

[arctic elbow]

i dont think it affects your scav at all

[wind pine]

Just like strength endurance etc but the actual level means fuck all

There's a separate tab for ur scav stats if you go to overview

[forest pebble]

ahh right

also, is there any reason why i'm getting one tapped by every scav. it's like they aim bot the face everytime...

[tidal lagoon]

because they have aim bot hope this helps

[forest pebble]

not particularly.. just seem excessively over tuned

[brave hemlock]

doing easy money part 1 and died a bunch of times, i cant find the bison vs undertaker posters at usec camp anymore

[brave hemlock]

[remote kettle]

idk
