[wet wolf]

Can someone give me a hand I’m new to this game lfg to

[drifting leaf]

can someone help me with shipping delay on woods

[south tendon]

Just get in the BTR and go to the depot. In one of the buildings under a table is the package

[undone drum]

how does one get out of there?

[south tendon]

You can get on the containers and then on the train. Can't really explain it in text watch it on YouTube Airwingmarine has a great video on it.

[undone drum]

no mines explode under your feet?

[south tendon]

If you do it the right way no.

[undone drum]

Last time i was there (long time ago) they exploded, while i was on the train

[undone drum]

i see

[south tendon]

Basically you just go right down the edge of the crate that you vault onto

[undone drum]

got you

[sullen forum]

I have the feeling that sometimes I dont hear things, but my friend does. I have a Logitech pro X. Anybody else have this?

[limber notch]

Also depends on in game headset

[sullen forum]

Yea, we bode use the m32

[limber notch]

Maybe he has some settings in his that allow some sounds to be easier to hear

[sullen forum]

I dunno, I cant figure it out

[proud ice]

anyone know what this is? it wont let me search them

[odd quail]

why do you have 197 ping 😭

[split agate]

I was running around a building on ground zero looking for 5000 roubles to extract with the car
but I entered a room and randomly blew up? Is there some kind of trap in that specific room or can they be randomly placed?

[odd quail]

there is a claymore in the bank teller stall

[split agate]

Ah I see

[odd quail]

yeah now you know

[plucky tusk]

hello

i want to play tarkov with laptop

intel core Ultra 5 125h
intel Arc graphics
16GB RAM
is this running?

[left parcel]

very highlky doubt it can run tarkovb

[plucky tusk]

How many frames do you think will come out

[left parcel]

I play on a laptop but mine has a ryzen 9 5900, rtx 3070 and 64gb of ram and I still hover around 60-80 frames on most maps

[plucky tusk]

😱

[left parcel]

I don't know if yours even has the minimum specs to even launch the game

[plucky tusk]

It's hard to get the minimum specifications?

[left parcel]

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

[plucky tusk]

ram is okay but cpu and gpu i dont know

[plucky tusk]

im not good at english because im korean sorry

[left parcel]

that's alright, your plenty good at english. I don't think your computer can run tarkov unfortunately 😐

[plucky tusk]

it is laptop

[plucky tusk]

how can i play tarkop

[left parcel]

you need a newer, better laptop

[plucky tusk]

At the lowest price

[shut river]

Those are very outdated

I wouldn’t use that

[plucky tusk]

😱

[left parcel]

I agree, I still don't think they're computer can handle that even with those outdate recs

[plucky tusk]

Do you know if it goes back to that specification?

intel core Ultra 5 125h
intel Arc graphics
16GB RAM

[plucky tusk]

I've been waiting for you since a year ago

[shut river]

I know little about laptops or what that would equate to in regular desktop specs, but I’m honestly not sure if you’ll be able to run the game smoothly. Unless it’s a high end laptop laptops will struggle to begin with. I do know that 16 gigs of ram is pretty much bare minimum and I’d recommend 32 at least with the amount of memory leaks in this game

Do you already own the game ?

[plucky tusk]

no

[shut river]

I would save your money and wait until you get a decent desktop then , or a high end laptop at minimum before buying

[left parcel]

I gave them the specs of my laptop above that runs tarkov and the approximate frames, my PC is much more powerful than theirs.

[shut river]

It’s unlikely you’ll have a good experience with your specs, if any at all.

[shut river]

Laptops are a joke nowadays but the lack of optimization in this game isn’t helping

[plucky tusk]

How many frames will the game go back to?

[shut river]

What do you mean by “go back to” ?

Your frames depend entirely on your in game settings and specs of your system running the game

[plucky tusk]

im korean so i dont know english

[shut river]

That’s alright, just trying to figure out what you mean

[plucky tusk]

lowest setting

[plucky tusk]

👍

[shut river]

With the specs of yours you wouldnt hit 60 on any map if I had to guess, on less optimized maps like streets and lighthouse you might get around 30? Less? I wouldn’t even consider it playable really but I’m not good at estimating frames off of laptop specs

[plucky tusk]

That's better than I expected. I thought I wouldn't even be able to get to the streets

[shut river]

You might not, I can’t say for sure

[plucky tusk]

😱

[shut river]

Laptop specs are completely different in performance because they have weird names and I straight up don’t know the equivalent of it in desktop specs

I know the higher end ones a bit, but not the super basic ones

What I can tell you though is that this game is heavy on memory and CPU power rather than GPU usage

[plucky tusk]

I'll look for computer products that have similar performance

[shut river]

I would invest in a desktop if possible

Try asking about your system specs in #community-support as well, someone else might be able to help you

That’s more of the tech / problem solving channel

[plucky tusk]

Ultra 5 125H
4.5Ghz
14 / 16MB
Arc (7 Core)

[plucky tusk]

thank you

[plucky tusk]

this is my cpu

arc 7 core is my gpu

[plucky tusk]

❤️

[normal echo]

laptop?

[undone drum]

how much ram?

[plucky tusk]

👍

[plucky tusk]

16😭

[normal echo]

yeah hard to tell how well ur system is gonna perform since it's a laptop

[undone drum]

its allright. Can you check how many Ram slots you have?
And if you can double it?

[normal echo]

yeah it prolly wont run well then 💀

[plucky tusk]

i cant it because it is laptop

[wet wolf]

Any tips? I keep getting owned and have no money! I haven’t extracted once!

[plucky tusk]

lets play scav

[undone drum]

what laptop is that?

trust me, there are laptops where you can upgrade ram

[plucky tusk]

samsung

[undone drum]

and further?

[wet wolf]

As in you want to play scav with me?

[plucky tusk]

i dont buy this game

[wet wolf]

Where do I have to look to play with people?

[undone drum]

#pvp-lfg

Cheers

[undone drum]

or just join one of the beginers voice channels

[undone drum]

You are wrong:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaWXyFBn5Hc

[plucky tusk]

All slot

[celest anchor]

Is it a chromebook?

Your biggest limitation will be that that laptop has no dedicated gpu which tarkov will need to get anything higher than 10 frames

[royal monolith]

Is it easy to comeback to the game atp of the wipe?

I've only done the early ground zero quests then stopped playing due to irl stuff

[plucky tusk]

Galaxy

[plucky tusk]

😱

[normal echo]

arc is an intel gpu

[cloud frost]

I'm at lvl14 right now and will unlock trader lvl2 soon, whats a good mid tier ammo I should be using? Currently im just running US 545

I am making a few stacks of 762 fmj which is the best ammo that i have found accessible right now

[undone drum]

check out pen value of 9x39 that is available to you

9x39mm SP-5 is Prapor 2, pens lvl 3 and deals great damage
good short to midrange bullet for beginners

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/KBP_9A-91_9x39_compact_assault_rifle

[tawdry venture]

Hi guys,What to do if I was banned in the game without any good reason in the game?, like I didn't even have time to enter the game and I was already banned

[unkempt egret]

Contact support trough the website

[tawdry venture]

I tried it for 2 months, but support didn't helped me

[rustic void]

what flashlight is the earliest you can get from traders?

[undone drum]

did they reply?

[tawdry venture]

Yea, but they used a bot to answer which wrote to me about 20 times about article 6.14

[undone drum]

You propably didn´t cheat in tarkov, right?
I cheated once in age of empires 2 (single player)
Did you ever cheated in any other game?

[tawdry venture]

That's the thing, I bought the game back in November, and as soon as I downloaded the game client I was banned, that is, I didn't even have time to log into the game and I was immediately banned, I didn't even have time to log into my account

[south tendon]

You probably had some client on your PC that isnt allowed

[undone drum]

Did you ever cheated in any other game?

[tawdry venture]

No I didnt

[south tendon]

Did you have any sus files on your PC

or programmes in general

[tawdry venture]

No, I didn't use any programs at all, I generally use the computer rarely

[south tendon]

Thats weird then. Do you have anyone that might play tarkov on your home wifi?

[topaz forge]

gtl is on ll1 mechanic

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Glock_GTL_21_tactical_flashlight_with_laser

[tawdry venture]

It's unlikely that anyone can use my internet in principle, because I live in a village

[south tendon]

Welp

I got no other reasonable explenation.

[tawdry venture]

Ok

But all in all thanks

[south tendon]

Idk how you could go to talk to someone in charge but i dont think theres any other way to get you unbanned.

[undone drum]

do tarkov uses battleye?

[tawdry venture]

Yea

[south tendon]

Yeah it does.

[undone drum]

get in contact to battleeye maybe

[south tendon]

Knowing from Unturned preety sure theres cases of battleye randomly banning people on there.

[tawdry venture]

Ok, I would try

[cloud frost]

if im a pmc and i kill a scav will that affect my scav score or will they not shoot at me if i dont shoot at them

[south tendon]

It wont affect your scav karma and they will shoot you

[cloud frost]

ok thanks even if i dont shoot at them

[undone drum]

I have a second account with insane KD to hours ratio
I go on a killing sprea on ground zero regularly
I am not banned
Thus to proove my point: false positives are propably rare or non existent

[south tendon]

Dont think battleye bans you for popping off in a game.

[south tendon]

even if you dont shoot them

[tawdry venture]

Guys, I wrote to Battleye support, when they write I will let you know

[woeful mortar]

This is the third time this has happened and the second time that it was happened to me today, I have had items vanishing from my raid inventory I am playing on PVE so it would not be a hacker, plus the items vanishing are of little value. Both the second and third time the item was in my chest rig at the top right

[topaz forge]

wtf lol

[woeful mortar]

wtf is happening?

[mortal monolith]

can someone please for the love of god help me get jager? (EU)

[undone drum]

If no one replies here: asked there already?
#pvp-lfg
or you can just join one of the beginners channels

or woods channels

[mortal monolith]

ok, thank you

[livid pivot]

Is there a way to fly on maps in trainings mode?

[topaz forge]

no

[median niche]

anyone knows if you can shoot through the "green-ish" glasses on customs? ie. crackhouse?

[topaz forge]

im pretty sure you can

[median niche]

okay then I just missed XD

[slender dew]

for sure, you just buy and instal cheats then wait to be banned

[livid pivot]

Getting banned because of cheats? Not on bsgs watch

[slender dew]

While I feel it should be better, I have 6 confirmed bans this wipe not having been to labs yet...

[livid pivot]

You get notified if a ban goes through?

[slender dew]

yes

tells you where and when, gives you a small (should be much greater) reward

[twilit ivy]

i am level 40, but i dont know interchange worth piss, anyone wanna carry me thru some interchange quests?

[livid pivot]

A good anticheat would solve these problems hopefully we‘ll get it soon

[slender dew]

Tarkov has no bugs, glitches, cheaters or issues... game is perfect, don't know what you mean

lol

[livid pivot]

If you are in danger blink 3 times

[median niche]

how can you jump through here?

I just killed two people that were walking in that snowy area, but we can't figure out how they got there

[molten cape]

How do I active DLSS 4 for tarkov? Do I just go into the DLSS settings and switch super resolution under presets to latest?

[median niche]

it should be live as of latest patch

[soft wasp]

so at the train depot how do i extract? i watched a video on the hiden extract but i want to know if i have to have the map in my inventory?

[topaz forge]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/fj5-ms0xBho

this video shows how to get up there

i dont think ur supposed to be able to get there but they havent fixed it yet

[median niche]

lol thats hilarious thanks

[thin cargo]

you need to take the BTR to the train depot and have the code on your person

[soft wasp]

the code? the map?

[thin cargo]

you need the mines map

[soft wasp]

thank you

where can i find the map

[thin cargo]

All good if you need more help in PVE we can hop in a voice chat

[eternal narwhal]

if you go out the first floor of the building, there are two rooms with garage doors that lead outside. one leads directly to this area and the other has a cutout in the concrete fence that leads to it

[thin cargo]

on sherman or around the map

[eternal narwhal]

unless youre talking about the roof, idk about that

[median niche]

I was meaning the roof, but got my answer earlier from the short

[eternal narwhal]

its not implemented correctly and doesnt work. you need to do it manually through nvidia settings, just look it up. @molten cape

[median niche]

oh mb then

[soft wasp]

did you mean shturman

[thin cargo]

Ya i forgot sherman is that other guy on terminal love that map.

[vagrant lava]

what is the "best" 545 weapon i can use? i have max traders and dont mind spending a bit to get the "best" build for said gun

[thin cargo]

the blicky its much more effective

On other note if anyone thats new is looking for help IGU

[topaz forge]

any variation of these two builds probably

74N left 74M right

[spice cedar]

how many shots does it take to kill someone if i shoot for the chest with 7.62x51 fmj

and they have lv4 armor

and when do i unlock m80 ammo

[vagrant lava]

i believe m80 is lvl 4 trader and quest

[topaz forge]

id guess it should pen within the first 2 shots, and then 1-2 more from there depending on how much damage they take from the first 2 shots

could easily take more depending on how lucky you are with pens & how fast their armor breaks

[spice cedar]

so 4-5 basically

does it one shot head with most helmets? basic fmj ammo

[molten cape]

Does it really do that good on frames?

[topaz forge]

no, youll want m80 for that

[eternal narwhal]

ive heard its pretty good. i have an AMD card so idk

[topaz forge]

bcp will one shot level 3 helmets as long as it doesnt ricochet, level 4 helmets are a gamble with only 37 pen

[molten cape]

I see, maybe streets will be playable while having a single chrome tab open

[spice cedar]

when do you unlock m62 tracer

[vagrant lava]

im not too sure, i think that one might be found in raids only or from quest

but m61 can be crafted after wet job part 6

[spice cedar]

okok

[unkempt egret]

Either a modded AK74M/N like posted above or an AK 12 for the extra RoF. It's not as moddable tough but that extra rof will give you an edge when you need it.

[tiny minnow]

found a blue keycard should i hold onto it? will it become more expensive or sell it on flea

[primal chasm]

sell it. its dirt shit anyway, and prices for keys go down over the wipe @tiny minnow

[tiny minnow]

alr...

[topaz forge]

fir only

[undone drum]

There is a great tool for that
tarkovgunsmith
You put values like ammo, armor and distance
And it calculates after how much shots you kill

As far as i know, the most accurate out there

[spice cedar]

Yeah I used it

Hella complex tho

Do ppl usually wear 2 layers of armor? What’s the most common setting I should use for armor

This is what I got for 308 fmj and 1 layer of lv4 armor

[undone drum]

Yes.
At this point either lvl 2 underneath, lvl 4 on top
or
lvl 3 underneath and lvl 5 on top

[spice cedar]

layer 2 is the one on top right

[undone drum]

Armor Layer 1 = top layer

[spice cedar]

so yeah around 5 shots with .308 fmj

is it better if i shoot their leg first

[cloud frost]

would anyone want to play woods need to figure out where the exits are, they have great loot

[primal chasm]

@cloud frost Ill play a raid with you

[cloud frost]

i tried to private message u

[livid pivot]

Do i need found in items for my bunker?

[topaz forge]

yea fir for almost every hideout upgrade item

[celest anchor]

Yes but they are extremely limited in laptops unless it's stated that that gpu is a dedicated graphics card or chip with its own memory

They are calling it an arc gpu but it's integrated graphics similar to their old 3000, 4000, and 5000, soc gup cores

It won't have its own GDDR memory either so it has to share with the cpu on slower normal DDR memory @plucky tusk

So performance will be extremely limited

Trust me I used to play games on integrated graphics back in the early 2010s on a laptop that had a integrated gpu, best in got on mass effect was like 30 fps and that was with all low graphics on a single player game

[novel nymph]

I have a question about the launcher. I havnt played EFT in a few years now and I decided to give it a try again. So I log into the Battlestate website with my correct email and password and login successfully. I then download the launcher just fine to, launch it, then proceed to put in the same email and password as i did on the website and then it says it sends a code in the email to verify . So I do that and nothing happens, I dont get a single email from them. Nothing in the junk and nothing in any other folder and its not on the blocked list either. So what is going on here? Some help would be appreciated because i couldn't find it on the message boards. Thank you!

[main sky]

guys i need to reset my account i cant do any quests on any map i just started and i have -6.35 fence rep scavs just rushing and killing me immediatly how do i reset my a ccounts and when i reset my account do i start with the items of the edition i purchased

[pallid ruin]

on the website and yes

also -6.35rep 💀

[main sky]

bro i didnt know im not supposed to kill scavs when im a scav i have 100 hours

i have some decent weapons armors helmets and all but i cant do it like this i have to reset

[novel nymph]

to my last message folks, its working now. If it just did by itself or someone here heard my please. Either way, thank you!

[main sky]

and also i bought stash upgrade its not gonna disappear right i mean i dont think so but just want to make sure

[pallid ruin]

yep the stash upgrade is permanent

also yeah learning this game is hard - luckily when i started playing there was no scav rep

but that also made every scav encounter more dangerous as you didnt know whether they'll kill you or not

[main sky]

can we duo you look like a og player

[undone drum]

just make sure next time to read into game mechanics and such

come here, ask questions

any questions

[main sky]

who actually does that bro i just bought and played and learned the hard way 😦

[pallid ruin]

going to sleep rn, waking up at 4am for work and i got a 12hr shift - i dont play much nowadays so unfortunately I'll have to decline- but you'll find other people here who would be down to play

[undone drum]

Did it work for you?

[main sky]

oh dont even worry about it have a good shift bro

[main sky]

no sir.

[pallid ruin]

cheers, have fun learning the game

[undone drum]

how did you solve it?

[austere stag]

I can’t figure it out it’s pretty complicated for me

[novel nymph]

It just solved itself @undone drum the confirmation email finnally came in on its own after a million tries.

[undone drum]

the website?

[undone drum]

how long between first try and email comming?

[novel nymph]

3 days

[undone drum]

i see. i know what do advise to people then. How long to wait

[austere stag]

Pretty much, do I need to just put items that sums up to 400k value to have a chance at quest items or what

[undone drum]

yeh

and website tells you what items have what value

[novel nymph]

@undone drum 3 or 2 days, not sure, but its odd. Logging into the website was fine and got a conformation email from doing that, but when it came to the downloader, it wouldnt send a confirmation code to the email with the same credentials.

Does this spawn have even a remotely decent chance of survival against the south guy?

[slender dew]

I mean always, just about being aware of what is going on potentially. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast

[surreal rapids]

That's true, I've been getting really impatient with punisher part 4

I just find it difficult to clear out the horizon over there when I only have a vague idea where the spawn is

not to mention the extreme lack of cover

[maiden marlin]

guys is this good latency

[tidal lagoon]

not bad

[dawn geyser]

You might notice your bullets register a raid late, but shouldn' t be too bad.

[winter karma]

Anybody wanna help a new player and give them some pointers on factory ?

[tidal lagoon]

spawn chance isnt public for any item

but its low

[south tendon]

Preety low I'd say. I rarely get anything spawning there. Let alone a super water.

The key is easy to find and it's only a early game quest key. No one hits a room for water unless they're desperate lel.

Anyone know why the modding section doesnt have any options in Arena? I built my Scar earlier and it now doesnt have the option to mod in my loadout. Wont mod any other weapons either

[humble otter]

i've had that happen to me before, think it's a bug

i reset my game and it was working fine

[turbid canyon]

Thanks. Worked for me too. I thought I wasnt progressing enough or something. I just tried Arena tonight lol

Think of it like cod but with Tarkov physics, weapons, etc... Its pretty fun

I have no clue. I just started Arena tonight lol

[rustic void]

aks 74 u is still the best you can do at lvl1 traders, right?

with us ammo

[grand pelican]

I prefer the mp5 with m882 if you only have access to lvl 1 traders but alot of guns are personal preference

[rustic void]

i mean not really
at lvl1 you have very limitted choice
so you get the best combination of rpm dmg and pen

aks 74 u at lvl 1 - 650rpm, us bullet - 17 pen 65 dmg
mp5 at lvl 1 - 800rpm, m882 bullet - 18 pen 56 dmg

Higher rpm but less dmg
Sounds alright
Need to see what I can even attach to it
Cuz you can mod aks74u completely at lvl1

[boreal trail]

Any tips on how to make money? Just unlocked flea, but most of the hideout stuff costs almost nothing now

[blazing elbow]

Some crafting items are going for the same price as they used to. Flipping items is possible now that you can put up stuff not for sale as well. It can help you make money once you start unlocking barters.

Personally, I like loot runs, and just throw out the stuff that isn't worth much anymore.

[normal echo]

should be up in the next hour

[drifting leaf]

When will tarkov be back up its been 4 hours already

[normal echo]

it hasn't been 4 hours

[unique mantle]

Its was literally 3h 23min ago

[normal echo]

my time the post went up at 10 am and it's 1:23 pm rn

so it's been 3 and a half hours

[drifting leaf]

oh okay perfect thank you

[limpid sigil]

Take this from someone who only plays PvP, arena can be a fun time, but if it wasn’t for the crossover progression my drive to play arena would be very little if at all

In fact, prior to the progression and last hero, I had written off arena entirely. It’s probably not worth your time unless you plan to return to PvP servers at some point

[rustic void]

btw can't use it at lvl1
the m882 is pk2

[rustic void]

i know
thats what i use

i was talking about mp5
cuz you can't attach almost anything to mp5 without a tri rail

so mp5 only gets a scope

i am using ump for now
better bullet than aks74
and better recoil

[topaz forge]

ump goated starter gun

[rustic void]

yeah i know
and it got good recoil now compared to before

[upbeat elk]

when did it have bad recoil

[normal echo]

ump was always used because of its good recoil

[turbid canyon]

Not from what I have experienced

[undone drum]

i play everyday since 2,5 months,
i reported 5 cheaters, 5 were banned

Its usually 3-7 cheaters for me per wipe

So i would say no, you shouldnt be concerned

[normal echo]

on arena? no

there's no monetary incentive to cheat on arena

[kindred grotto]

bruh

died to 3 cheaters in a day once this wipe

[undone drum]

they don´t like me

what can i say

[topaz forge]

it really depends on the spots ur hitting & maps ur playing

[undone drum]

labs must be bad

[topaz forge]

the average player will likely have little to no issue with cheaters

[normal echo]

3-7 that get banned

[kindred grotto]

playing customs lh shoreline

[normal echo]

if you play a lot of raids that number is probably in triple digits that you don't know about

[topaz forge]

at least blatant ones

[kindred grotto]

xd

air filtering still broken right?

no need for the filters

[undone drum]

100% of people i report get banned
i rarely report sus people, unless i am certain

[normal echo]

"that you don't know about"

btw idk what BSG changed, but i am using DLSS on K preset and disabled the volumetric lighting

[kindred grotto]

early wipe i got hunted bcs i brought a raid bag into raid

[undone drum]

because usually i know why i died, what mistake i made. And what they did right

[normal echo]

after i loaded into a game, my fps was high right away

no slight time for the game to "warm up" after spawning in

[kindred grotto]

I know when someone is cheating when I make a mistake tho

rarely never hackusate randoms

[undone drum]

good

[kindred grotto]

some ppl blame every death on them having cheats lol

very annoying people

[undone drum]

yep

[topaz forge]

yea theres definitely not an example of someone like that here

[kindred grotto]

I mean adapting the what you couldve done mentality from other games definetly helped with this one

[topaz forge]

yea for sure

[clever lintel]

Guys if I fail a task needed for kappa can I redo it or can I even get kappa?

[kindred grotto]

what task?

most tasks that you fail you can restart

[muted spoke]

looking for help with some fps issues ive played wipes in the past with around 800 hours but getting on this wipe ive been having a lot of fps issues and packet loss issues if anyone has advice id appreciate it

[upbeat elk]

theres nothing to be done, performance is just ass

[muted spoke]

averaging 10 fps?

and game keeps freezing for minutes at a time?

[tidal zenith]

Ok well that is an issue.

I used to average 30-40 but now I'm up to 100-115

[tidal zenith]

GPU?

[normal echo]

there's no case possible in which you miss out on kappa

[muted spoke]

3060, 3300x, 32gbs 3600mhz ram

i’ve played for years it’s just this time around i’ve been having a lot of issues

[tidal zenith]

The snow is a big cause unfortunately.

For me, I turned DLSS on+boosted

Texture quality low

And shadows quality low i believe among other settings

You kind of gotta finick with the settings

[muted spoke]

okay ill try that thanks

[pallid ruin]

if youre not already, check running on borderless

borderless gives me a 20fps boost in comparison to fullscreen

[shy needle]

Is there anyway I can get into raids where I’m not with people that have over 12000 hours or is that unavoidable

[dawn geyser]

Aside from Under level 15, Ground Zero - No

[shy needle]

Also for “search mission” I have given over 50 attempts and so far my best is getting to the first location and then immediately dying to someone

[topaz forge]

are you going first thing in the raid?

[dawn geyser]

Avoid hot spots, use cover

Also zero chance you've done it over 50 times lol

[shy needle]

If I’m close yeah I try to get there to avoid the player base but sometimes I’ll end up there almost 15 minutes into raid

[shy needle]

Well if you wanna do that I’m on my 46th attempt 🤓☝️

[dawn geyser]

Try night, try other servers, try waiting in a bush in the initial 10-20 minutes

Many ways to try different approaches

[shy needle]

I have been at this task nonstop for abt 4 days basically when I first bought the game

[topaz forge]

the usec camp is a bit of a hotspot so you will probably have better luck moseying about for 20 minutes and then going there & immediately going for extract

it can definitely be frustrating

[pallid ruin]

plan your route beforehand, dont go too heavy so you can sprint more, if you spawn on the right go -> convoy, usec camp, zb014/outskirts in that order, no looting for u

that many times is way too many if you ask me, gotta be user error somewhere here

[topaz forge]

also like Kwon said night can be useful but other players will generally have the same idea as you & will probably be playing slow for their quests too

[shy needle]

Also what is the most effective way to deal with scavs cause I feel like some raids I pile up about 7+ kills while other I’m dead before I even see the scav (I also dunno what but I can’t for the love of god not see the scavs even when there abt 10m in front of me)

[topaz forge]

target spotting can be hard

ur best bet is to take ur time one tapping them for the most part

[shy needle]

Well apart from my lack of combat like very very bad lack I can’t really think of any other issue

[pallid ruin]

audio, not repeaking the same corner twice in a row, headshots, constantly looking around for motion on your screen, knowing general scav spawn areas

[topaz forge]

unless theyre right on u

[pallid ruin]

yeah tbf if scavs are still an issue then thats the problem here

also, throwing a nade into a bunch of scavs will usually make them yell a voice line

so you can check for ai scavs that way too

[shy needle]

Yeah like yesterday I got stuck in the abandoned village on woods and I tried hiding in a building for cover and no matter how many times I peeked to look for them I couldn’t see the muzzle flash or anyone

[pallid ruin]

in that case just throw a nade so they spread or move / look for a next point of cover and try to triangulate the shooting direction from the audio

if they were ai scavs that is

[shy needle]

Yeah they were ai scavs I checked who I died to

Also why do other player scavs kill me so much on scav runs I don’t have anything good and they decide to kill me after talking to me for 15+ minutes

[pallid ruin]

also, making sure that your graphics settings dont look dogass (aka no antialiasing etc) helps, if your textures keep jittering you wont notice small movements in bushes etc

[pallid ruin]

no clue, i usually just avoid other scavs as a precaution

not worth the risk

[shy needle]

Mm ok

Do raiders lower your scav rep or no?

Cause I did kill one the other day since well it shot me first but I don’t remember my scav rep lowering though

[pallid ruin]

iirc it doesnt affect ur rep

[shy needle]

So if I went to reserve killed all the raiders somehow I wouldn’t get punished for it?

[hoary falcon]

correct

[shy needle]

Ok so reserve is pretty good for scaving then for that reason I’m just late a lot of the time to the action

[hoary falcon]

Yes, just like lighthouse and the rogues. The issue is, everyone knows it, and so there's a lot of competition and people more than willing to kill you if you get the raider gear first.

[shy needle]

Yeah the only time I killed the raiders so far the guy I was with sadly died shorty after I killed all of them so I kinda got all of it to myself

Also the bronze pocket watch mission I’ve heard it’s one of the hardest in the game but how hard is it really?

[topaz forge]

not very

its just another fetch quest

its annoying early wipe bc its a big hotspot

but its not that hard

[hoary falcon]

it's infamous but it's very easy

delivery from the past is prob the trickier early game task

[shy needle]

Is getting the machinery key easy?

[split rain]

Ive been watching this game for years on youtube only just got a pc and boy this game is fustratin to play yourself!

[shy needle]

Yep got the game 6 days ago and couldn’t agree more

[split rain]

Im learning the map knowledge and spawn points are key to be aware of where danger comes from... as i seem to run into everybody elses spawns by mistake

But being level 4 this late in the wipe has its pros and cons.... ammo is shite for me but potential dead body loot is amazing

[hoary falcon]

you gotta die like 25 times on a map before you start getting the spawn flow and stop putting yourself in terrible positions

[split rain]

Tell me about it!! Still trying to quest on Ground zero..

[hoary falcon]

that map is brutally hard, so funny they made it the intro map

[split rain]

Just locating the mg and gl took 5 or 6 raids

Also suffer from telling pmcs and scavs apart 30mins into a raid

[hoary falcon]

yea that shit you just gotta get an eye for

[split rain]

As i mainly scav due to being broke now..

[undone drum]

Are you USEC?

[hoary falcon]

scavs wear much brighter clothes, PMC's more camo
scavs much less likely to have good helmets and bags, PMC's usually have a good helmet and a decent size bag

You can always hit f1 as a scav to voiceline, and it's the ettiquette if you're a scav to do it back.
So if you ever hit f1 and the person you hear walking around doesn't respond, good odds its a PMC

[split rain]

No im Bear, this is my first ever wipw and struggling to level up.. im told its a rush to 15 to unlock flea?? Makes game easier being able to buy ammo and guns you have not unlocked irself?

[hoary falcon]

Yea, rush 15

It's the main objective early game

[split rain]

I guess i feel safer scaving as i know i wont get 1 tapped in the first 10 mins

[undone drum]

don´t rush anything, explore Ground zero, do your quests

[split rain]

Im trying!!!

[hoary falcon]

Not like a literal rush lol, that's just what you're aiming for

[split rain]

Super stuck finding the wine

[split rain]

@hoary falcon sure 🙂

[undone drum]

whats the issue?

[split rain]

Finding it lol

Or getting there alive to find it

[hoary falcon]

wine task is so annoying, has so many spawns and it's such a hotspot

[undone drum]

u use tarkov wiki to know where it can spawn?

[hoary falcon]

on like literally every shelf lol

[split rain]

Yeah its just never there when i survive long enough to get there 🤣

[hoary falcon]

it'll always be there

[undone drum]

no, thats not true

[hoary falcon]

it has so many spawns, I've helped a ton of people do it and the wiki does not list them all

[undone drum]

but you checked tarkov wiki right?

[split rain]

Ive heard only one spawns and if some else gets it ur out of luck?? Bit like science key??

[split rain]

Yeah....

[undone drum]

thats not true as well

[hoary falcon]

sorry but, i've def seen it somewhere the wiki doesn't list

idk why you think you're the expert here

[undone drum]

give me a proof of that then we can talk

[hoary falcon]

lmao, okay bud

i'm not screenshotting everytime

[undone drum]

chill, no need to be antagonised

[hoary falcon]

no need to be so damn sure of yourself either

[split rain]

Ffs

I didnt want to start an argument

[undone drum]

dw, not your fault 🙂

[split rain]

Appreciate both ur inputs

[astral glen]

The wiki does list every spawn

Hope this helps

[undone drum]

Wow

[undone drum]

@humble cave
Heresy!!!

[astral glen]

https://tenor.com/view/joe-biden-presidential-debate-huh-confused-gif-9508832355999336631

[hoary falcon]

I've personally seen it elsewhere, I'll screenshot next time lol

[pallid ruin]

wine wise:
its a quest item meaning only you can see it - no one else can take it, it will be def there its just a pain in the ass to find, try to focus less on the wine and more on the little dot that appears in the middle of your screen when you hover over an item

[twilit ivy]

the wine always has a red wax top also

[pallid ruin]

its easier to look for a dot instead of a wine between hundreds of other wines

[undone drum]

If you say, Wiki doesn´t have the complete and full info about a quest...
that lets my blood boil

[hoary falcon]

cringe

[pallid ruin]

Wiki doesn´t have the complete and full info about a quest (the quest came out 1min ago because tarkov just wiped)

[split rain]

Thank you mate 🙂

[pallid ruin]

np

[astral glen]

You read what I said wrong bro

[undone drum]

its obviously a joke, but i have the quest soon so i will check the spawns

[undone drum]

DMed

[humble cave]

What is the context here

[astral glen]

You summoned him this is on you

[undone drum]

does wiki page for luxurious life lists all spawns for vine bottle?

the context here is: new guy says he struggles with it and another guy says, it can be literally everywhere

I don´t believe its true and wiki is helpfull here

But i will test it soon anyway

[humble cave]

Obviously yes

People are terrible at the game that's all

[astral glen]

Finally someone said it

[humble cave]

No need to waste time trying to find a new spawn that doesn't exist

[undone drum]

🙏

[hoary falcon]

the arrogance in here reaks

[humble cave]

If you show me a spawn that isn't on the wiki I'll happily resign

[undone drum]

just stating something is not right, doesn´t mean its against you or something

[humble cave]

Imagine just admitting you are wrong

Impossible speedrun for Tarkov players

[hoary falcon]

Imagine admitting you could be wrong

impossible for you

[astral glen]

Why would they admit to being wrong when they are right?

Sounds a bit counter productive if you ask me

[hoary falcon]

Man, stinky stinky arrogance

no wonder everyone hates the red names

[humble cave]

You do realize that there are hundreds of thousands of people that used the wiki guide and everyone but you found their bottle?

[astral glen]

The only arrogant one here is you mate

[undone drum]

would you believe my test run? i planned to hit it 50 times to find a new spot

Is 50 times allright?

[hoary falcon]

please read the discussion before assuming. I've found it. I've found it a lot. I've seen it in a place that wasn't listed

maybe that was before it was updated, but I'm certain I've gone through all the spawns, didn't find it, then found it elsewhere

[humble cave]

Of course you did find it in some special spot that only exists for you

[hoary falcon]

man, stinky stinky arrogance

you guys are somethin else

[humble cave]

The only person on earth

[hoary falcon]

and the people I was with...

they were checking wiki too

sorry I've so offended you

[humble cave]

I can promise you that we would know from hundreds of crybabies if the wiki would be incomplete, not just one

[astral glen]

You keep calling us arrogant but the only thing we’ve done is correct you, no need to throw a tantrum over it, you’re wrong, and that’s fine, this is a beginners chat, this is what it’s for

[hoary falcon]

"the only thing we’ve done is correct you"
that's exactly what a hyper arrogant person would say lmao

jesus christ

[undone drum]

no one is offended. You started the discussion, by saying that checking wiki is pointless for this quest.
Replying to me

I just said, your statetment is wrong

[hoary falcon]

Please point out where I said that

[undone drum]

You felt antagonised

for no reason at all

[hoary falcon]

I only said i'd found it somewhere that wasn't listed

You're making shit up

[hoary falcon]

Did I say it was pointless to check the wiki there?

Or...?

was that just a lie

[undone drum]

☝️
here indirectly

It can be on every shelf

[hoary falcon]

where did I say it was pointless to check the wiki?

[humble cave]

I hate it here

[hoary falcon]

what a valuable contribution

[undone drum]

the truth is worth fighting for. Thank you muhawi, you may go now

[hoary falcon]

yes, you're dismissed

[split agate]

I got an achievement called "you're not my brother" last raid what does that mean?

[humble cave]

Killed a Scav as Scav

[split agate]

He shot at me and blacked out my stomach, do I still lose scav karma for killing him?

[topaz forge]

no

[humble cave]

No

[split agate]

Ok, thanks

[humble cave]

The achievement is just bound to killing a Scav

[astral glen]

Well if it was AI you would have lost standing

Even if it shot you first

If it was a player you’re fine

[split agate]

I think it was a player, what are good ways to tell?

[topaz forge]

well generally ai wont shoot at you unless you hit another scav first

[astral glen]

Or if you are within range of a boss, then you’re marked as hostile

[topaz forge]

so vast majority of the time any scav shooting you will be a player, assuming you dont aggro the boss on the map while under 6 rep

[split agate]

I don't think I did

[topaz forge]

behavior is a good way to tell, you can voip at pscavs and most will respond

[split agate]

Ok, thanks

[topaz forge]

not sure how to describe ai behavior but the more you play the more youll understand and be able to tell the difference

now that i think about it tho there are beginning to be situations where the ai is hard to distinguish from players

[twilit ivy]

its easier to be like "oh thats a player" than "oh thats an ai"

[topaz forge]

not many but theres some scavs i couldve sworn were pmcs

[twilit ivy]

choreographed skid stops are my goto for telling

[topaz forge]

yea those are like 95% guaranteed scav sounds

if theres multiple it's def a scav

[rigid gyro]

anyone need some help with woods quests

[bold kernel]

Does flea sell FIR?

[undone drum]

no

[bold kernel]

Ok im about to unlock it for the first time so idk what falls under flea

[tidal zenith]

Flea can be literally anything you can want

Besides a few exceptions

[bold kernel]

ik that

[tidal zenith]

But no, nothing is FIR

[bold kernel]

ok i was confused cuz a survey said that flea could sell FIR which had me kinda excited

[tidal zenith]

Nope.

I think that was a question like "Would you like it if the flea sold FIR"

Which tbh, it'd defeat the whole purpose of the game

The games challenge i mean

u got nothing from optional

sicc is larger and can hold some valuables and dogtags while docs case can hold info items like diaries

[normal echo]

Cones isn't optional

[woeful mortar]

can sicc old info items?

Docs case holds info items, sicc holds valuables

Oh, no

[abstract harness]

no, but you can’t get anything better till flea

[elfin furnace]

is there an optimal way to run labs im doing it for the first time and i dont really understand it

you just die to cheaters then go again. and make sure you don't insure your stuff, it doesn't work

[tight bane]

tips on staying calm in a pmc raid?

my hands shake and my heart beats out of my chest lol

its why i always die lol

[tidal lagoon]

play until it stops

[twilit ivy]

dont consider a pmc to be that important, play it like a scav, its not that big of a deal, theres always another raid, always another kit

[tight bane]

i am not nerves about loosing my gear or anything i can always buy more gear

its just the idea of fighting scares the crap out of me

like i hear footsteps near me and all of a sudden i can feel my heart beating out of my chest

[elfin furnace]

ok good ot know

[slender dew]

anyone need help with beginning quests?

[winter karma]

Me ion understand some of em

[slender dew]

what do you need to do?

[winter karma]

I just started playing tarkov last week

Im just trying to do any of them and learn the game a bit from a more seasoned person

[mighty hinge]

what is the best way to find dry fuel?

[winter karma]

Been watching stuff on it for a year or so and finally got a pc

[slender dew]

I love lighthouse for it or the new area on woods

[slender dew]

if you want to hop in a voice channel my buddy and I are down to help

[winter karma]

Bet gonna join one rn

[mighty hinge]

ive never tried lighthouse before

not a big fan of woods too 😦

[slender dew]

which vc?

[winter karma]

I’m in #7

[normal echo]

hell no

look at penetration

how to calculate pen
for the first shot to penetrate armor with ~80% chance, the formula is:
X (armor class) * 10 = how much penetration you need
so 40 pen for class 4
30 for class 3

[split agate]

I found an sv-98 in raid but none of the traders will buy it, what should I do?

[tepid arrow]

Repair it to 60% and you can sell to mechanic

Fence should be able to take it aswell

For a lot less money tho

[split agate]

Ah thank you

[rustic void]

i should be able to ignore this tasks right? nothing good behind them?

[tepid arrow]

You need unprotected but dangerous for a lot of jaeger quests

Tarkov shooters arnt that hard either, you can just bring a bolt action as a secondary

For the shoot target in leg it can be the same target

[unique mantle]

99% the only stat thats interesting is penetration, 23 pens lvl 2 but sucks vs lvl 3, lvl4 armor is the minimum now

[unique mantle]

tarkovshooter locks most jager tasks, unprotected locks the easier jager quests

you need tarkovshooter 3 to unlock most boss killing quests

[rustic void]

eh, gonna do it later then
cuz i ain't feeling boss kills rn

[delicate axle]

Any tip on how to get inside the rogue area as bear? Only played usec before and i get so rekt every time now 😆

There’s farming guides you can do as bear, jus search on yt

I’m not 100% sure but the rogues might spawn in on practice mode

[mystic sun]

Servers response is lagging? Europ middle and west?

[tepid arrow]

Just make sure to enable bosses

[delicate axle]

Okay, do they see shorter distances at night?

[unique mantle]

yes, much shorter

[topaz forge]

you basically need to do all of these if you want to level up jaeger

[lime pecan]

Anyone have any tips to do woods keeper and the next hunting trip, having such a hard time doing it

30+ tries now

lost 10 mil roubles

even tried nightime

and he spawns, a duo or squad guns me down

[rose mulch]

just a suggestion this is not the perfect answer for hunting trip. use a cheap bolt action rifle that supports the tac-30. spam woods until you spawn near the sawmill and rush to it. if you don't spawn near the sawmill just drop your gear and disconnect. insurance will bring back the gear the next day so you can try again

i did like that but had a friend helping me watching my 6. so maybe join someone to help you to make this task easier

[unkempt egret]

Scav a bunch on woods to get the key for the quest, most people who kill schturman don't loot him for fear of exposing themselves. It's somewhat easier as a scav to find a FiR key than as a pmc.
Try an offline raid or ten with bosses enabled to practice killing him. Once you somewhat get the hang of it try again in live raids. Minimal kit to save roubles (m700 with tac scope, KedrB 2x spare mags, paca, white bank robber rig, white balaclava, ggsh) and check your spawns if you spawn nowhere near it's rarely worth bothering.

[lime pecan]

alright thanks

first time trying kappa, it is so painful

but only have 1k hours in the game

[rose mulch]

good tips. in my case i didnt even use a armour or backpack to save roubles lol. but as i mentioned i had a friend helping me

[unkempt egret]

If you didn't want to get a kick in the balls why did you boot up "kick me in the balls nikita simulator 2016 edition"?

But the dopamine hit from getting that win after struggling so hard feels so much better.

[lime pecan]

exactly

I will keep trying, i never give up

almost killed him, and i fumbled it hahaha

[normal echo]

hunting trip specifically needs an m700 tho

[normal echo]

woods keeper: play dead servers and night raids

[rose mulch]

my bad thanks for pointing it out

[lime pecan]

just found him, shot at him somehow a player killed him before me

got his key, but died to a level 30, 32 hour 10 kd chad

what servers are dead?

@normal echo

[normal echo]

depends on time of day

if you're european - whenever americans are sleeping

and whenever far east russians are sleeping

[lone creek]

Can anyone show me around ground zero for the first few quests I need help learning the map

[normal echo]

you can run the game in practice mode where you dont lose anything on death

[lone creek]

Yes but that doesn’t help me complete the quests

[normal echo]

oh, well you said you need help learning the map

[lone creek]

Read the message again

[tepid arrow]

You can learn where they are

[normal echo]

no need to be so pissy

[lone creek]

No need to be illiterate lol

[normal echo]

i hope nobody helps you

[lone creek]

they’d be just as much of a help as you if they did lmfao

[normal echo]

you can learn the map yourself and then get someone to get thru quests so you wouldn't be a headless chicken

[lone creek]

Brain dead euros ong

[normal echo]

and actually know your way around the map

[tepid arrow]

What is wrong with u dawg Christ

[normal echo]

it's ok dw about it

[silk heart]

u still looking for someone for GZ?

[south tendon]

Someones angry they died on GZ one too many times

dw buddy we all been there

[normal echo]

it's more the fact they don't wanna learn how to get better themselves

just run thru the quests

and get carried

[south tendon]

I mean learning GZ is kinda useless

its easy to learn if you dont know GZ in your first 2-3 raids its a skill issue

[normal echo]

takes like an hour to learn tho

at most

[normal echo]

well it has depth with the underground too

that connects everything

2-3 raids for the overground for every quest location sure

2-3 offline raids running around

[south tendon]

went there like

twice? Its useless lmfao

[normal echo]

gotta come back to it after some quest

debut i think

[south tendon]

the underground

i went there a lot this wipe since i helped a lotta newbies

[normal echo]

oh underground has decent loot

and connects almost all buildings

[south tendon]

Ehhhhh

[normal echo]

it has like 5 big tech supply boxes

[south tendon]

You can get that on woods fairly easilly

[normal echo]

you gotta run around waaaay more tho

almost every building leads underground on gz

[south tendon]

Nah 1 POI on woods has that

[normal echo]

you can get in and out in like 7 mins

[south tendon]

idk i dont like GZ

[normal echo]

no

[south tendon]

i have no fun on that map

[normal echo]

which woods poi has 5 technical supply crates

[south tendon]

Depot

Old sawmill

[graceful thistle]

anyone want to team up and do some raids? im kinda new but i know what im doing for the most part

[normal echo]

there's 2 there

[tepid arrow]

A lot of other technical spawns tho

[normal echo]

Gz has like 2x more at least

[tepid arrow]

Ig but there’s other factors

Woods has a lot more cover and not nearly as many choke points

Also more loot variety

Most of gz is tech and food which is fine but beyond early game it’s eh

There’s better sources for tech stuff too

[normal echo]

Like what

[tepid arrow]

Interchange

[woeful mortar]

so I've never had this happen to me before but I did a scav raid on factory, I have decent scav karma like 2.20 at this point, Raid starts I run to the office before I get inside I hear a angry Russian voice like I assumed it was a bear for me to kill, I turn and see someone running away and then I notice the red hat, I never fired a shot and just ran inside, then all of a sudden like 4 scavs kick the doors in on both ends and light me up?!?!?
Can Tagilla just agro onto you and then everyone agros onto you? Because I swear I've stared at me before without all the other scavs going agro, or even had him chase me down and no one started to shoot me till I shot him????

[tepid arrow]

Lmao you sounded like you panicked so genuinely bad

[woeful mortar]

XD How would you react to both doors getting kicked in and 4 scavs bumb rushing you like you killed their collective grandma

[tepid arrow]

Same way but likely with many consecutive “fuck!”s

[woeful mortar]

I did way better during this I just said "We don't need to loot upstairs."

But yah if a Boss agros on you does that mean every scav agros????

[tepid arrow]

I could be wrong but I think I remember hearing tale abt that when pve 1st came out

[woeful mortar]

like I had good karma didn't fire a single shot and then Scavs Red Eyes

[tepid arrow]

Ye no I checked ur mags ammo count to make sure too

Shiz strange

[woeful mortar]

I could have made the clip start at the start of the round but then you heard random convo with me and friends I muted

legit, spawned looted dead scav took a few rounds of FMJ 5.56 and then that all happened

[tepid arrow]

If I had to guess they probably bugged and spawned in like

Same group as tagilla

Like when pmcs spawn together

So they like on a team and since he aggrod so did they

[normal echo]

tagilla makes scavs aggro on u

unless u have 6 rep

[woeful mortar]

cool thanks Tagilla, ran away like a fucking bitch and sent your army after me

If I equip a different knife to my slot like a red rebel if I die do I loose it or does it stay like an armbard / special slot?

[tepid arrow]

Like you take a red rebel out of your melee slot for a different knife?

[woeful mortar]

like I take the default knife and swap it for a red rebel

if I die do I lose it or does it stay like armbands do?

[normal echo]

whatever is in the knife slot on death, you keep that

[woeful mortar]

cool thanks!

[normal echo]

so if you pull out the red rebel for a wood handle knife

and die, you lose the red rebel and keep the knife

[keen wasp]

anyone wanna volounteer to help me with 2 factory quests?

prapors quest where i have to get a logbook from the crashed heli and mechanics quest farming pt,1 fixing the control panel thats NOT near the forklifts

[tepid arrow]

What region are you?

[lime pecan]

I give up on kappa, woodskeeper and hunting trip impossible

100+ raids

now

so many players, and have been getting killed 10 times by 200 hour 12+kd account

[tepid arrow]

Don’t give up!!!

It’s likely that it’s just temporarily contested

Once other players move on from that task the heat should die down

You could focus on other tasks in the meantime :p

[normal echo]

did u try dead servers yet

[lime pecan]

yes i did try dead servers, but one of the times i got kicked for having too high ping and the boss was there

so gut wrenching

and that server was dead

This is the most frustating thing i have ever dealt with on this game haha

lost 15m roubles atm

lol

[tight bane]

hello everyone!

[tiny abyss]

does anyone know how i can switch backpacks? like ifi have 2backpacks cant i drag one on top of the other and they just switcH?

[keen wasp]

use the sorting table

[tiny abyss]

what is that?

[keen wasp]

top right when in the stash

[tiny abyss]

yeah i get it, but like in a raid does that work?

[primal chasm]

no

you have to manually fill the new backpack with all the old stuff

[tepid arrow]

Just drop bag, search, alt click new bag

[tepid arrow]

Wazzup pimp

[pallid ruin]

open the new backpack, move all the stuff using ctrl + click, drop ur current back pack and put on the new one (shift + click)

or alt and click dont remember, one of them

[tight bane]

struggling in tarkov lol

[tepid arrow]

Watching newest atrioc video bored out my got damn MIND

[bold kernel]

Anyone able to tell me what the 3 options of dog tags I have actually do on character screen?

[woeful mortar]

Do I loose Scav Rep if Tagilla and scavs argo on me and I don't fire a shot and just try to out run them and die?

[topaz forge]

no you only lose rep if you shoot them

[topaz forge]

cosmetic

[bold kernel]

Thanks!

[normal echo]

killing scavs lowers rep, no other action does

you can hurt them, you can shoot near them, but specifically gotta kill em to lose rep

[keen wasp]

finnaly unlocked punisher pt-1, how hellish are the first quests?

[normal echo]

insanely easy

just scav kills

part 4-6 is where ur gonna be pulling your nuthair off

4 is lighthouse, worst part of it

you need 10 pmcs while wearing a scav vest and balaclava, so no ammo for u lol

5 is 10 pmcs while ur wearing a paca and ratnik helmet, so u die instantly, but its any map

6 is 15 pmc kills with svd

[bold kernel]

whereeeee tf can i find a dam sodium bicarbonate??

wwowwww 2 RATCOLAS in 1 gym bag but no sodiums

[normal echo]

med supply crates

try the emercom camp on woods, the one near RUAF extract

[robust schooner]

How is the streets loot?

[blazing elbow]

AMAZING!

[robust schooner]

OK becasue i found a Chek15 key and I was thinking of using it on my pmc

[blazing elbow]

That's a good key. That area is a hotspot. Good luck. If you don't want to tackle too much PVPing you might want to wait until later in the raid, but you risk someone hitting that room before you.

[robust schooner]

I see thank you!

[glass apex]

Yo when you guys are questing, do you take your best gear or some kind of budget gear. I got a lot of quests on shoreline and dont know if i should just go balls to the wall and rush resort with gear or not lol

[normal echo]

dont

using anything loose loot related is the meta to losing money this wipe

[kindred grotto]

sell empty ahh room

[robust schooner]

Is loose loot that bad this wipe

[normal echo]

fucking dogshit awful, worst it's ever been

and i do mean ever

it was shit from last wipe, it got nerfed 25% on top of that 4 days into this one

[red rose]

what is the box called where you can store food again? i forgot

[red rose]

perfect thanks!

[vagrant lava]

is there any "best" map to farm gernades?

[slender dew]

fridge, I believe Jaeger has it

[vagrant lava]

grenades*

[normal echo]

reserve

[slender dew]

^this

[inland briar]

factory has a few grenade cases that are usually overlooked

inside the med rooms / bridge / underwater bit

[tight bane]

hey can anyone help me learn/ complete a quest on ground zero

i am fairly new and dont know the map super well

[strange iron]

what are the sound queues for killa? Like how can i hear hes in a raid if dont see him. Shturman has his signature 3 svd shots is there something like this for killa?

[strange iron]

if you got a 2nd monitor open a map on it

[normal echo]

long long long RPK bursts

[strange iron]

run scavs too learn maps

[normal echo]

you should learn his voice lines

to know if he's near when you run around flashbanging stuff

check a yt video on them
