new to the game if anyone would like to help me learn
whats the ammo type called for 50 cal
whats the ammo type called for 50 cal i know its not called 50calibur its called something else
ok let me refrase whats the highest calibure in the game
no i mean highest calibure as in bullets
like highest calibure in irl is 20mm anti tank rounds
yea im just curious
these right?
ty life saver
DUDE ME TOO, CAN'T WAIT. eVEN bRANDON DIDN'T CARE AND WAS LIKE "FUCK YEAH"
theres .50 AE for the deagle
but no rifles yet
the .338 lapua is probably the hardest hitting but yeah 12.7 for the ASH-12 is probably the "largest" if that makes sense
oh i forgot 12.7 was the .50 cal size
one rifle*
has anyone ever seen the V-Exfilo spawn on streets PvE? ive run like 40 raids on streets and the car in NEVER there, even if i spawn and run straight to it
I've been looking for just 1 Electric drill at Ground Zero, Customs and Intercharge for a week now and I can't find it either way, does anyone have a suggestion 😦
Spawned my 2nd raid there :p
wow, thats crazy, pve??
Ya
customs in these buioldings, ive found plenty, (see below)
i need to do it for gunsmith 5
open the build on the mod view
gj
howdy! i'm trying to build an ADAR-2 with a KAC RIS handguard, but all my traders are LL1 (i own PFE but don't meet the level reqs for LL2 traders). How can I get a barrel that works with the KAC RIS at LL1?
anything you KNOW you don't need for quests
and anything that's irrelevant in terms of hideout.
even then components are fairly common so don't stress it.
just clean out
anyways i found another marked key.
what to do with it?
You likely have to find it or just level up..
Im on standard and all i've been doing (and struggling with) is progression
Well it's for lighthouse and it's not really the most expensive, so I would use it tbh
ah... I see.
What's inside?
Keycards, guns and other expensive stuff
ic
I got a marked key first day of wipe (reserve) and made like 3-4 mil soo
good for you man.
I'd ask for guidance bc i've never played anything outside of factory, woods and customs but im on PVE so
ty
could some1 help me? i did all the requirements for the labyrinth mission to stash the cultist knifes and waited like 15h..... but i got no task whatsoever...... i cleared the logs and the cache still nothing....
Your right. I didn’t mention that I had max traders but I did mention I can buy any parts
considering you are struggling with progression, I don’t think you’ll be using this key anytime soon so just sell it
i could drop it for ya
nah i'm good
i'll just grind to a higher level
thanks for the offer tho
het im new to the game i have a question what weapons should i use early on like what are the best weapons i should get and how do i get them?
AK from prapor
what kind tho theres like 15 xd
idk which of them is better
the small one
I would take RPK-16
and if i lose my gear should i just buy more gear or just look for gear in raid?
dont have bolts for workbench xd im gonna do a raid to find some and then unlock workbench
You dont need workbench
i can put mods on without the workbench?
i had no idea thanks alot xd
1 more question is there a weapons box i can store weapons in?like the scav junkbox?
Sicc weapons case
who can i buy that from?
Check out tarkov wiki
alright thanks
Here is a helpful page of all the containers that exist
its PVE. i have a key case
im just terrible at running through maps and extracts.
all ik is woods and factory pretty well
customs partially
yeah but you can’t realistically get to where that key is
and if you’re struggling I doubt you’re getting there soon
yeah i just saw the map.
i need stuff from a way later quest for that x_x
barely even got l2 on some traders
questS
if you know they're coming, prefire, try to stake them out with grenades.
try keep them at an angle where they're at a disadvantage
that's like basic stuff.. you kinda ran into it which i get, in a stressful situation can happen
and you didn't really have anywhere else to go there
yeah idk progression is hard..
i wish i had a GPS with atleast my location on it 😭
that's the only thing stopping me from actually progressing.
understanding the maps
Word I’ll try ur tips thanks
i mean they're tactics i did and they worked out for me even against higher leveled players.
i'm less experienced than you but you gotta aim your shots and know where to shoot, that's what truly matters
he prefired you rounding that corner bc he knew you'd be there based on audio queues.
a few bullets lost is worth the extra chance for an entire gearset, you know?
Yeh man for sure, but I’m 100% certain that guys cheating I’ve ran into him 3 times down there at this point just wanted to see if anyone actually thought bro was legit 
There is a website
what do if hideout have sun in it?
i failed the getting aquantied task what do i do now?
uhh, what does this key do?
i don't think there's any failing for task, some can fail in the current raid but you can always reset and go back in for that task
ive got it now
i need 4 svds
is there any recipe for it on cultist circle
brutha i'm still level 12, i haven't even gotten that far yet lol disregard, i forgot that is unheard edition only or something
let alone unlocking flea market
is there a chat to look for duos?
you looking for a team?
yeah
guys how to get healed by doctor lady
Unless you have a secret walkie-talkie connection with him, go back to him...
.
The option only appears after a raid
how do i heal in the storage then
With meds?
guys help for some reason my game freezes and crashes after every raid specs:Intel core i5 - 11400F
32 gb RAM 3200 Hz
1050ti
and i cant even heal my charcter normallly bc of that
Hi, will running the Air Filtering Unit with an Air Filter installed apply the 40% buff to training my Endurance when I'm underweight in a raid?
Yes, its a physical skill
thanks - the reason I asked is I found a lot of info that this was bugged (should the filter be installed or not)
That was fixed 2 years ago
oops - thank you 🙂
loot scavs they have hella esmarches bandages and splints
all medical items work, anything with the gold checkmark in the bottom right(hover over it to see what quest it’s good for)
Just got all my traders max lvl, been tasking like a madman, but none of my traders have best ammo available. How do i unlock the best ammo types(m61+, 855A1+, etc)? thanks
Some you craft like m61, m855a1, and others just have to stockpile like all the ap rounds you'll find in raid
You'll likely have to look at wiki for what quest unlocks which crafts
my hideout is all at max lvl but i dont have any crafts for good ammo yet?
55a1 is some streets quest iirc for pk, and m61 is wet job part 6
nice thanks
how do you do this task when no scavs are there? its been 5 raids and every time there is not a single one.. for the whole raid
How is anyone able to survive the Labyrinth??? I used my best 995 and 855A1 and have not survived against Boss
get lucky against bosses & kill 4 rats to survive
you have to magdump the bosses pretty hard
its inconsistent
sometimes tagilla will just gun you down while ur spraying him
i through like 10 nades.. unloaded 100 rd mag at him and scavs
ive spent 4 mil gearing... its getting old very quick.. 0 for 10
but only having level 5 or 4 armor
just wait
I went in Marked, grabbed/shot at whatever I could and had them rush me, only way I could make scavs get there
iirc doesn't have like an actual use but its for basically your main goal. do NOT bring it into raid as you need it FIR
Anyone wanna hop on for a couple of raids? I'm tryna hit 15
guuys i need a lvl 1 workbench for CMS surgeon kit?
@azure bramble AND @restive ermine killing new players on pve currently in channel PVE 25 mod please ban. Will attach clips
anyone wanna play some labs im kinda new to i got black and yellow card https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/724758141673144370
anyone trying to show a noob the ropes?
can someone please help me with this quest
i have the stuff and i know where it is i just need some back up
shoreline should be chill rn esp that part of the map due to the event
just wait like 5 min after spawnin
i will try it then
just avoid resort
i will
If that doesn't work. Just tag me and I'll try and be backup
Good job
Try tagged and cursed aproach to lure scavs, pistol mags and maybe meds nothing else. Loud pistol too since that attracts them.
anyone tryna do labs im pretty new to labs https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/724758141673144370
Is it bad that half my kills are pmc kills while playing as pmc, i never realised it but i avoid scavs so much
Whats ur survival rate?
40% i do rush in with only pistol or mosin when im bored and go for pvp
Sounds like you have fun and doing good then?
Killing scavs only reveal your position and make you more predictable.
So its a good idea to not kill scavs unless you have to
the reason i avoid scav is cus i die more to scavs and rouges then i do to pmc's lol
how do i find goons?
Use the goon tracker sites, find the most consensus between them and run that map
Anyone wanna do anything? I just hit 15 tryna get my money up
anyone tryna play some labs i got black and yellow rn kinda new to labs https://discord.com/channels/521608697764380694/724758141673144370**
what is the brightest light/.
Tightest cone / bright is WMX2000
Brightest / wide cone is Klesch 2U I think it's called
Can somebody help me with the task corporate secrets I only got 100 hours and struggle with new maps
Is this any good? First time seeing it. Got it from a scav case
The stitch it self isnt good but definitely keep the armor plate and transfer them to a better armor if you can
How rare are bolts, I've been looting as many toolboxes as I can all day and I haven't found any
I honestly tend to find more in file cabinets, now that you say that i never thought about how few nuts and bolts I find in toolboxes
says it lowers the IR signature. Are there others of that type as well?
"Draw me like one of your french girls"
Oh I didnt event notice it did IR remission, not confirmed but I would think the improved version the Stitch V2 does it as well
Very good actually, on par with mod.1 the reason you don’t see it at all is it’s fir only and default t6
can anybody help me with key to success please
repair guns
don’t need to hard push for that quest it’ll happen over time
need help on starter woods tasks
need help with woods quest anyone down to play and help?
Woods main here if anyone needs help
Don’t matter lvl can join at any
You do want your ground zero tasks done first though. If you queue with other people low level you'll be in a level 1-20 queue on that map specifically
best place to find ev lamps for the hideout? thanks
you can queue with other people? like randoms
or do i have to be in a party beforehand
just tried but there wasnt anyone joinng after 20 mins of waiting
duo?
Shoot me a dm
you CAN, but I don't recommend it. Best possible option is you can only communicate with voip, so everyone hears it.. bad. More likely is a group picks you up, loads in, kills you and takes your stuff
ive found loads of them in filing cabins on reserve
Anyone happen to have an extra pkp layin around ? :D
Can any kind pmc put this on flea? 👉 👈
you still need it?
pve?
yup
yeah
it is locked behind mechanic IV
there you go
mhmm
Gunsmith?
what setting is it that toggles between different sights? like main scope and side mount?
Can anyone help me report a bug? The new launcher update has removed the dropdown menu to "report a bug"?!
it's under "Switch between sights". The default keybind is left control and RMB
at the same time
thanks i had accidently put on rear sight and 1-6x on my akmn so i couldnt see or aim xD
keybinds are always fun in this game xD
Can anyone help me report a bug? The new launcher update has removed the dropdown menu to "report a bug"?!
Anyone got a shroud mask on scav pvp
anyway to get higher than 60 fps? im on all low and have a mid range pc
like any settings to defo change
It was a bug, its gone now
???
Yes BSG fixed it it was a bug
Probably a feature that will be available later though
LF someone that can help me with labyrinth quests
can anybody help me out on ground zero
Is it bad I'm almost at all level 3 traders and still haven't completed the 60 rounder quest for Prapor?
yes
so uh. what's the difference between playing on BSG servers and not
except for being local obv
I literally can't find the 60 rounders
And apparently the hoses for water collecter and lavatory are nonexistant
is that an option for PVP even?
no
It sucks they did not tell when the end date for the event is. Really want to try getting dungeon master achievement on pvp, currently only on 5/24 kills and I work much so there is no way of knowing if I have time to do it or not
They said they'd announce a bit before end. But yeah who knows how long that window is between announce and close ;-;
your lavatory is lvl 1 or 2?
Level 1
I need water collected for level 2 and I'm missing a single hose for it and have been for weeks
Any easy way to get pkp for gunsmith part 25? or maybe someone has a spare one on PVE they're willing to sell?
where the hell do i get a friggin tnt brick i've been searching for one for so long
dang i feel... lavatory lvl 2 you can craft hoses and the 60 round mag for ice cream cone ;c
Thats why I've been wanting lav 2 
I haven't found a single 60 rounder since gunsmith 2
interchange back stores has a lot of toolboxes for hoses, etc..
I'll have to try it again, I've been running a lot of customs for quests
I still have to do Pharmacist and the gold zibbo quest
otherwise woods with the zb-14 key the 60 rouund mag can spawn inside but its not consistent
I need a duo to play with after work nowadays, i get too annoyed solo because I'm blind as a bat and can't see super well in dorms and shit
if you need help whenever your on and im on as well i dont mind helping! im at a point where i could just play for pvp but im still tasking a bit with bosses and all
What timezone are you?
eastern time
Bet, I'll ping after I'm off work
sounds goood
Whats the best map to start out on? Never played before
Ground Zero
Anybody know if you have to find the v3 flash drives to get lightkeeper unlocked to get dungeon master achievement?
Yes, the flash drive is needed to encode the stick to access the island
Is there an easy way to get them or is there only one way going to the water treatment?
i found one on woods, but i think it was on a scav so idk
grenade cases
woods and reserve are your friend
Some people say mechanic gives the v3 flash drives is that true?
like as a quest reward?
Yes only with the ongoing event
Idk if it is true or not
you can look it up on tarkov wiki:
Just google tarkov wiki v3 flash drive
Deciding whether I should go for dungeon master achievement or not
Does not say anything
Oh it true, when you accept Getting acquainted it should be in your inventory quest they changed it for the event
Can anyone help me I just got the game today and i can’t really kill no one and I don’t have a mic but I ordered one and it’s coming in later
you playing pvp ?
Yeah I don’t have another 20 bucks
i bought the game like a year ago i htink... still havent really enjoyed it because i dont know how to progress quests lol. I mean there are guides but like you need to have map knowledge first and then pray that you wont get kiklled
and about htat... i was thinking on buying it just so i can learn to play the game through pve. Learn maps, weapons, tasks but sitll not sure
If I buy it do other people have to have it too?
plenty do have it and play because its more friendly. I mean your progress doesnt wipe, you dont have to deal with cheaters and you dont get into a raid with enemie chads that have 1k minimum hours into the game
what i mean is that you have early gear and they have full gear kit with scopes supressors etc
get used to that
according to players yes they are.
i started with factory but ground zero is kinda better. Its bigger but has basic materials for your hideout and has some tasks to do
yes
Which
factory does have one which the guy with the hammer
well i havent seen one there... but still the problem for me is the unbalanced matchmake and the fact that you have to know the extract locations by yourself lol. Still trying forest cause i have a quest and i still havent learned a damn thing
woods*
honestly if you want to learn the game a bit easier, is to try finding someone with plenty of hours to teach you maps and tasks
Okay danke
if you dont do tasks you are doomed cause they unlock gear
Okay
if you do find one im kinda interested too 😭
Hi
Hi
hi
Hi
I am trying to install the game but keep getting the error Checksum failed?
Tried running the command that starts a repair on my hard drive but same result
Kinda like that one
Anyone else experienced that and might have a quickfix 🙂
There is 2 instance of GZ, lvl 1-20 and lvl 21+, Kollontay only spawns in the 21+ so you dont have to worry about him before then
No tagilla spawn at factory and that is all level GZ is the only map with a separate queue
Ahh hang on see i posted this in the wrong chat, will move it to community-support
Dilling you should check #community-support that is where people go for tech issues
Yes lol
👍
Flechette vs magnum buckshot?
Looking for help marking the things in water treatment plant on lighthouse, will do anything for help
I just hit 15 trying to make some money if anyone's down
What has better armor pen?
flechette im just asking preference
mangum higher damage. 31 pen on flechette isnt too crazy
i read about both
I would always prefer flechette. It goes through lvl 3 soft armor or lvl 3 faceshield
I survived magnum shots to the face often enough
👍
Magnum for leg meta, flechette for aiming at heads
question, if you 5 man labyrinth its basically pve right
Is labyrinth Max 5 players?
You are in an advantage of course
i belive it is max 5
basically pve XD
dumb how they overlooked that, you can farm the shit out of it with 5 people
guys can you put keycards in a S I C C case?
Check it out here:
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/S_I_C_C_organizational_pouch
i just made the cultist circle anyone know what that first item i need to put in is
Google tarkov cultist circle calculator
Basically items that in sum value over 400k
Will give a better result
alright thanks
i hit prestige 2 and i keep getting server connection lost how do i fix this
does anyone have dragnet keycard?
What is the easiest way to navigate on woods?
Powerlines
Or use this website function
i need help with 2 quests, background check and hidden layer
keep getting killed before i can get out with the watch 😠
Brother I'm gonna keep it real if you are struggling with pocket watch, labyrinth is probably not the play right now
but... the loot 😍
What do you need the loot for? Your traders are all level 1 and you don't have flea
lol he right but ill help you with pocket watch tho
to look at it and be happy 😔
I am very happy when i look at my hexgrid and Redut-M
that i am never going to use
#861204662799958036 im assuming youre new so i wouldnt worry about max giga chad loot, just learn the game and loot will come
very
Hexgrids are booty cheeks. Pull out the T6 plates and sell that shit
hop in the vc, ill help with the pocket watch and maybe with couple other things
is there anywhere i can see what can go into "secure pockets"? or however they are called
Assuming you are talking about your pouch you can see what can go in here https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Secure_container_Gamma
no, the pockets
i don't know how they are called and can't find on wiki
i know for sure we can put flares there now so we don't lose them
Oh the special tool pockets
ye
got out of the scav raid looking like this
Should be everything in there except for the armor repair kit: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Special_equipment
Youre right they kind of fragmented that in the last update hmmm, at the moment I cant think of any up to date Ill look a bit more though, you can upgrade your actual pockets with a ragman quest you already have the upgraded pockets if you have Unheard
ok thx
anyone know where i can find an electric drill, i cant seem to find one
Interchange tech stores are where I got most of mine for hideout
tech stores on interchange theres 4 you can check
ill try then
level 55 14kd, 60% survival rate, 404 hours. is that sus?
Stats on their own are not. Stats for the hours are fairly suspicious, but you never know I guess. Could be an alt account, could be a nutty gamer
hmm being dying to a lot of high level low hours account with god tier aim recently haha. trying to get dungeon master achievement. but im only 6/24 kills
might just give up on that achievement, it just sucks
but im one item away from my first kappa:D
but god damn labyrinth is hard solo
Yeah don't really have any advice to give unfortunately. It's tricky, if you leave spawn first you get bumrushed by like 10 scavs and then the spawn next to you is probably camping your hallway. If you leave spawn too late... They're probably camping your hallway haha
Unfortunately you kind of have to just bash your head into a wall and keep doing it. I think I was down like 15-20m stash value by the time I finished it
The achievement is nice and the hideout is pretty cool, just wish it had like a clothing cosmetic or something. Id much prefer that.
hahaha it's gonna be painful. but the thing im worried about is that i won't be able to get it in time, there is no way to know when the event is gonna end
It will probably be at least another 1-2 weeks if not more, plenty of time
alrighty
yeah most ppl are ratting rn
either try to rush out of your room and camp someone or just jump them while they fight ai
Wiki is your best friend for this game, you can either look up guide on youtube to learn or raid offline if you rather learn hands on, to navigate maps use landmarks when you can, but the greatest teacher will be for you to go in and die
, such is tarkov
yeah just use wiki and try to play with more experienced ppl
you dont gain much from playing with someone just as lost as you
it is defo fun tho
can anyone help figure out why my tarkov wont download
can anyone help me get better
Depends on what better means
how much is the btr on woods?
never mind ^^
who do i talk to about reporting a "sherpa"?
is it true that after completing all the labyrinth quests I unlock the lighthouse?
Good option?
Is the GAC level 5 plate only found in raid or can I unlock it somehow
Shit didn't mean to reply to you my bad
Np bro 
I guess you could try modmail
FIR
if you are talking about GAC 3s15m it can be unlocked from ragman
Yeah that's the one
ragman sells HPC plate carriers with two of these plates inside
Do you know what mission? Doesn't seem to say on wiki unless I missed it.
no mission i think
Ah alright, appreciate it.
search hexatac
after their hitpoint decrease you can toss use two used GAC to craft two new GAC in the lavatory
by crafting an armor with GAC
I feel like it used to be 1 for 2 in lavatory
It was, they changed it
Its just ragman 4, no mission no nothing
Barter for 3 rollex
Aight thanks man.
Was it a sherpa from the sherpa discord? If so what region were they a part of?
Anyone EU looking to squad up
whens next wipe
Lowkey im hella clueless and need a duo to teach me this game
i second that dont have a clue atm man
Anyone know why my secure container is gone?
bugged inventory
Anything i can do about it?
(i dont know how to fix it)
i just had it once in a offline raid
nah u gotta ask someone else
anyone need a teamamate
Got my own dogtag now.
well at least thats a trophy
I would close out the game and launcher and reload.
tried here?
#pvp-lfg
join #sherpa-info discord
click there on the channel called sherpa-info
choose your region
make a ticket for a sherpa
my guess is july-august
what happened?
Show us on this doll where the Sherpa touched you
hehe
the what
That feel when you're on a scav run and see a scav that picked up some juiced loot from a dead pmc, so you have to decide between the gear and not screwing up your scav rep
Speaking of, I'm not even killing scavs on my scav, and I'm losing rep. What am I doing wrong?
harming scavs, bosses or guards as a scav loses rep. no other way
I lost 0.08 scav rep in a scav run where I didn't even fire a bullet. Boss didn't even spawn that raid (Factory)
Fake news
dont know what to tell you, but that is how it happens
You're right, I did shoot the office window as I was extracting. Maybe that pissed them off
even a graze does it
NO haha you have to kill a scav to get the negative rep XD
You lose .03 per scav kill unless you're over 6.0 and you get .01 for exfil. Sounds like your ass somehow killed 3 scavs and exfiled XD
No kills on the post-game screen, and I didn't shoot at all until I mag dumped an exterior wall as the countdown was going
Penned and killed tagilla
XD
That would be freaking hilarious, since it was with a ppsh
must you ruin it
Yes
If you're over 6.0 do you still lose way more or you don't lose any at all?
Lose all excess plus .03
brings you directly down to 5.97
Ty sir
NP
Also, do AI not shoot traitors anymore?
Yes the def do haha
Hmm, I've had a couple experiences last few days where AI will ignore them
How do you know they were trader scavs ?
when i play tarkov (and sometimes other games) often i hear windows noise, and then my mouse shows up on middle of my screen. Cant remove it until i reset the game. Is this something game related or is my mouse dying or something? There are no issues with using the mouse otherwise
I've never heard the noise but do from time to time get the indicator in the center of my screen and have to reset the game to remove it. Idk what causes it though. Does it happen often for you ?
this is it. Sound the mouse pointer shows up on middle of the screen and i have to reset it to remove it
i would not say often, but often enough to annoy me
i also asked Ramenstyle now on his stream, he has the asme issue sometimes. Seems like a game issue?
or keyboard something
Happens for me about once a week if that. Everyone I know has had it happen must be a game issue
solution that i have been told right now. go to menu (press escape) and plug unpug mouse. I treid it works
what are the better 7.62x39 guns to use
x39: MK47, RD-704, RPDn, AK-104
x51(.308): MDR, MK17, SR25, RFB
(in order of cost)
thank you!
Difference between RPD and RPDn is a mount for sights. Irons work just fine
Ofc, Bless Up!!
anyone know a good map order to do marathon achievement?
id say start labs... im going to try and do that as well
Remember for the achievment you have to go in a certain order. Check the wiki I believe you have to start on GZ end on shoreline.
how many scav boxes is enough scav boxes (note, i am Standard)
This wipe with FIR hideout items its very different. Everyone hordes things. I just reset and I have 3 I believe I ended up with 4 mid wipe then sold them after I maxxed a bunch of stuff.
A buddy of mine had 7 I think thats excessive
I have 7 junk boxes 4 items cases then like 12 thick boxes
can someone help me do the task introduction on pve??
i just recently started the "wipe" i'm lvl 17 and i have 1
guess i might need 2?
What do you need help with? Finding it?
Will save you stress for sure
Yeah I just don't know wood all I would need is to find and extract
I don't play PVE but you shouldn't have too hard a problem with it. I DMed you a decent map
do you lose rep if you accept a daily/weekly and not complete it?
thank you
As for the event, I got knock knock (waiting for intel 2) - I get the dongle, I flash it and immediately I get the “stash 3 cultist knife’s” quest?
is there anyway at all to make it so it preloads everything when i load in so i dont lag an everything is laoded so i dont got that damn spinning circle when loading
why is my tarkov running slow and not as smooth is it an internet thing or something?
wdym by slow
it doesn't run smooth while im in raid
like fps wise or lagging wise or ping wise
yeah
fym yeah pick one
fps wise
what r ur graphics at
ultra because my laptop can support ultra graphics
what is your shadow quality at
it usually runs really well but the past few days after the update It just hasen't been running smooth
hold up
ultra
turn that down shadow can make a massive fps differnce
ight cool
what about your ssr
?^
high
that also can be why try turing it off
i have very good graphics for good fps and quality do u want them?
yeah
have you changed your postvfx at all?
no
ok cool
also what map were you on
factory
the only map i lag on is lighthouse idk why but i run 15 fps but any other map its like 360
CPU GPU and RAM?
So your telling me with a 7800 X3D my game doesnt have to look like minecraft !
I've got everything on low dammit haha
is ur pc better than mine?
Idk maybe comparable ?
mainly the gpu matters
Not true at all tarkov is a CPU heavy game and you can force your GPU to take some of the weight by nvidia control panel but in game settings effect your CPU
What GPU do you have? My chipset is slightly better but my GPU is probs worse
is my cpu ass?
No sir
3060
How many frames do you get?
on lighthouse and lighthouse only 16
Oh shit brother turn your settings down haha I'm getting 80-100 in 2k
Picture is a TAD grainy because of my LOD but not bad
what do i change?
How you gunna post settings to help people and not even know the settings haha. I'm not at home rn but I can show you the settings later. One thing right off the bat is uncheck all those boxes at the bottom unless you have a VERY specific reason to have them. Check the streets box it actually does help.
i dont latg on street
Fair but how many frames
370-500
Thats false
u mean on tarkov street right?
bro died irl
Bro is at his job irl
I fixed my problem i updated my graphics card
Yes on streets
IMO your settings are crazy and I think could for SURE yuse adjustment
like 120-150
No chance bro haha maybe 120-150 ping haha not on a 3060 and that R7 at those settings where are you getting this number
ok more like 70-120
I mean maybe 1080P sure. I would still uncheck all those boxes but if your not having any issues then by all means run your settings I just don't know if I would recommend them to other people.
so the boxes make the biggest differnce? in your opinion at least
anyone got any settings suggestions for my game looking blurry at ranges? im not talking about low textures just the fact that the game looks super fuzzy around 100m+
No everything makes a pretty large difference imo. But its not something I can type its alot not to mention if you have DLSS turned on and didn't do it the way BSG said to then its not really turned on.
Whats your Overall vis and LOD set at.
2.5 and 1500 and i went into an offline raid but turning them to the max didnt seem to make it look any less blurry
just made the textures look better
How about sharpness
i have it at .9
Adjust that see if it helps.
ok
i only have a 7700x and 4060ti so you think i should play on high textures or medium
I've got a 2080TI and a 7800X3D and I play on low or medium but its a give a take game. I run lower "look good" so I can "move and update" good. Lower graphics higher FPS and vice versa. Its more of a personal preference. I've played the game at 35 FPS and I've played at 145FPS. I like it right in the middle for my machine.
gotcha
I'll SS my settings later when I get home and send em over to you and you can try them out. I have a buddy that has a setup similar to yours and he LOVES them
ok preciate it
whats the brightest flashlight with a tight cone
Dlss?
i got it off, just makes it look even blurrier last time i tried it but ill test it out again
whats the best preset for looks
K
can someone tell me what the brightest flashlight is for a tight cone
ok thanks
Wmx2000
legend, dlss k made my game look exactly how i wanted. i just lose a bit of frames
thanks
np u the legend
Might be beneficial to look up a video on how to enable it fully as its not just as simple as selecting it iirc
if your talking about dlss 4 in nvidia app then i enabled it a while back when people were freaking out abt bsg banning people for using it but i didnt like the way it looked back then and that was before presets
Do you have a 50 series GPU?
i only have a 4060ti
but my game looks insanely good with dlss k on
i just never liked the latency it adds
Yea its not just in the app it has to do with last patch
ok then ill check it out
Like you have to toggle it then change some shit then go back and toggle it I'm trying to find the video
wth does ULTRA tactical flashlight mean
am i blind where is the bipop also ty for flaslight info
Well considering that a large portion of the options are scopes I'd wager your looking at your top rail, but also your modding a g36 and I believe the g36 has no bipod options
its a WA2000
Do you not have the workbench?
i do
Why do you not right click on gun and edit preset?
becuase im fucking stupid LOL
I noticed a message from Therapist that begins with "I regret to tell you this, b..." but when I click on the messages, I don't see any message with those words. What does this mean?
Can you screenshot?
I can once I get out of this raid. I'm thinking it's because I let an insurance retrieval expire
Was my first guess too
yeah i think that's what it is. just weird i dont see that message in our exchange
anyone got key 114 for dorms? im tryna do pharmacist rn
wtf am i looking at
u should still be able to grab it from the window outside
anyone have johnb's on their scav?
can anyone help me? i bought the standard edition for a friend today and when he launched it for the first time it told him integrity compromised but it wont let him repair it either, we're reinstalling it rn because running as admin or restarting pc hasnt worked
is this a gun that is hard/expensive to make? i got it off a guy i killed:
i got a prapor task asking me to survive reserve twice
i went there with nothing but a knife, ran to extract 10 seconds after spawn
and it doesnt count?
that is a run through
so run through doent count?
from what i can see after building it in game, it's mostly stock. I think the only thing that would cost you money is the clip and the hand guard
nope, you need to get some exp (500 i believe, check the wiki) or surive for 7 minutes since beginning of the raid then extract
and the scope?
because the gun SLAPS and almost no recoil when shooting bullet by bullet on very long range
scope and silencer. looking on flea, silencer is 85k and scope is 52k
dayuuuum
PVE flea that is
around 100k for both on pvp
you can't even buy from traders the scope wtf
and silencer is lvl 4 trader
dang...i thought PVE was inflated
now i am scared of losing it lol
best map for sniping other than woods?
scavs or PMC? i found that lighthouse isn't bad with the long road. I know there is a quest where you have to kill scavs on it
it is - 100k for both meaning 50k ea
AH! sorry i took that as they were both listed for 100k each lol
that ak-12 build is for test drive
go to lighthouse half the players there will be running it
I got it on ground zero pre lvl 20
i really like how it feels
i can hipfire auto when needed but extremely precise at very long range with almost no recoil
Any1 wanna help a Timmy out im solo and keep getting slapped by squads
is someone able to help me go through my already organized scav cases and help figure out what to sell, what to craft, what to barter?
oh. saved. thank you!
anytime. if yoyu need to find this. its on tarkov wiki on bsg website
anyone know any tips for solo, i’m more of a duo/ 3 stack but i wanna run more solo often, biggest thing is that i play scared almost like slow and like im expecting smthing around the corner
play at a good pace and know your spawns
Take the time to understand spawns and map flow. Develop heat maps based on your own experience when questing or looting. Play around the “50% mark” of the maps to take advantage of things like funnels and awareness to enemies
get used to dying so that you dont play scared anymore
Can the Cultist knife disappear outta my secure containers?\
No
LF laid back peeps who need help
semi-new, is there curently a way to gain access to lightkeeper because of this event that doesnt require the quest line to be completed?
...already having lightkeeper unlocked. Otherwise no
Doing every side quest from labirynth quest line gives you access with level 2 intel center.
Otherwise you need to do the normal requirements.
This is the gun you need to use for test drive part 3 on lighthouse. The AK-12 suppressed with a valday.
i havnt played in a while, did they change the sound of footsteps? I feel like i can barely hear peoples steps anymore
ref just gave me this but i dont have arena...
A little audio tweak here and there you know BSG and sound. Honestly it feels different headsets are night and day now. I personally run gssh throughout wipe because I like everything loud but I know sordins aren't bad and idk shit about the 9 million comtacs they have I think they all suck haha
pretty sure theres a way now to play some arena for free. Which is probably why this exists
noo way, they made it free? or is there some trial? hhavent seen anything on the launcher
taking off my m32's for gssh for you pooks
When completing the task Balancing - Part 1, players will be able to access a free trial version of Escape from Tarkov: Arena for 3 days
😘 my all time fav a few wipes ago were the M32s and they had to ruin them
im at balancing part 2 already, do i still get the access even if i completed part 1 weeks ago?
i miss being able to hear 💔
idk, someone else asked the same in the patchnotes thread and i didnt see an answer
Gssh you can hear everything but you've gotta kinda know what to listen for because they are loud and make everything loud
very true, wise dino nuggs
ok yeah just saw, its a 3 days acces to arena, idk if its worth even downloading lmao
Well it is apparently you can get lots of monney for main game and high tier ammo
As well as lega medals for keys
So you get modded weapons, high tier ammo and plates
And well lvls from quest for main character
yeah but i lose acces after 3 days and i cant buy it bc xsolla blocked me from doing purchases
i wish BSG switch or add payments method, i had problems with dark and darker and xsolla blocked me from doing purchases and idk how they know im the same person but on my eft account they say that im blocked from the dark and darker account
only thing you can do is iron your nerves and get used to it . i never did lol. The benefit to solo is though, you shoot anything that is not you 😄
Can someone tell me what I did wrong here and why was I killed so easily???
Ok, so:
- When you heard him you should have stayed in the corner and not move OR find a better position. When you shuffled, he could hear it from a mile away and he was ready.
- He peeked you from his right side, you did from your left. In game, it is much stronger when you peek from the right side, less of the model is showing, so basically he saw you first.
- You had a pistol with VERY low penetration (probably, i assume you are new) and he had a helmet on. You obviously did not hit him in the face, so the bullets bounced off of his helmet (or armor).
- Then he just burst you to death, don't know if you had any armor or not
A much better position for you would have been (imho) to let him pass without him hearing you hoping he does not see you, and shoot him in the back or take up position on the top floors and hit him from above. But in general, in an outright fight, you lose unless you hit the face immediately.
Go and write a ticket to customer service at xsolla or your bank
Thanks for your help! I was using a pistol as I was trying to complete a quest of killing 3 PMCs using pistols. And Although this is the third wipe for me I consider myself as a beginner because I'm trying my best for more than a year and still getting killed like that at the beginning of raids 😆
Do you guys know when is wipe?
For Stirrup, go to GZ if you are below level 20 and try to get on that terrace with broken glass, you go above where you are in the video continue up to the street and in the building on the right camp on the first floor. You can almost certainly get a kill off of someone coming from exactly where you were (probably that guy that you encountered) or someone coming through the building from the restaurant. Same tactic for Shooter 3.
People go Factory but i hate Factory.
yes, we are just keeping it a secret from you
how can it be. the bot banned my gif for that message
is reserve the best place to find 3 marksman rifles in one raid?
Why dose this not count for Gunsmith prt3 ?
no rear sight?
yep, got it
Thanks I will try that
i already did 3 times and no success, they dont care about my issue... i just cant purchase using xsolla anymore, it is what it is
lol… that’s something new to hear.
Like if they didn’t want you to pay with ya money 🙃
thats what i said twice to them....
if BSG add something else than xsolla good stuff otherwise rip
I remember that I had the same issue, but used PayPal for the payment using my banks card so it went through PayPal
Probably all of the ppl are going shoreline for Labirynth
my guess is july - august.
why do you ask btw?
Always try to be less predictable
no real reason to grind that quest doesnt unlock anything just go factory with pistol when youre feeling bored or ovewhelmed by dying in normal maps
What map should I run to speed run getting all these items asap ? I mean A S A P ?
i went to reserve to get some documents and stumbled upon a pile of dead.... guards, raiders? anyway, class 5 and 6 armors lying around i could barely move to extract
GZ PC ofices near nakatani or interchange PC rooms would be my choice
GZ PC offices is a good shout, and extract relatively close too, should I just run that on repeat?
I woudl, lots of PCs and not like anyone plays GZ a lot after lvl 20
watch out pre 20 though
PVE so im good)
then definietly
just getting back into eft after taking a 2ish year break. Anyone able to help me relearn the ropes?
Fellas can you please help me I have a massive hoarding issue, 4 junk boxes + Stash full, im scared to sell anything in case I need it for a hideout or quest or something. LOL
need some desprate help on getting better at pvp and the game in general
just got shot by some stupid moron on ground zero no armor just a glock and i had tier 4 armor and helmet
not possible does not compute had to be hacking
damn cheaters always ruining my games
Nova, you have to listen to me carefully
You are comming here and asking for help getting better
but you always pair it with cheat accusing or complaining
again and again
The only thing, that is standing between you and getting better is your mindset
Change it and remember some core principles
i can help with advise
When you are ready, i can tell you exactly what you did wrong here.
A core principle was violated here, a less obvious one
I can show you a tool, that you can use to sort it out yourself
yessir
dm me
I can tell you about it here. Google tarkov tracker and click on items
Now you can search for each item and see,
in what quantity you need it for quest or hideout
and at what lvl
tarkov tracker, got it, ty
ur a good man
i try
he was 100% not cheating, just more accurate.
Remember this: Just shoot when you are 100% sure you will kill
Don´t reveal your position with inacurate shooting
There is a website for tarkov that tracks your hideout and quest items that you need. Sadly don’t have the link at my hands.
I guess
i wish there was a way to actually fight these sweats
with arena, level is significantly less meaningful
it just means theyve played a decent amount of arena
at least
I am struggling with the basic character control 😂 For example I am standing next to a window with a sniper rifle, I press "alt+d" to lean and peek slowly, but then if I want to move even more my character makes a normal step, is there way to move in slower increments here? Same when peeking over corners etc, I feel like there is only a tiny range where I slowly peek over without making a further step and completely exposing myself?
press caps lock to start slow walking
scroll wheel adjust movement speed slightly too
can also do the same while holding crouch and using the scroll wheel
Also when zooming in / out with a sniper, I hold left alt and use mouse wheel, for some reason that also changes my character walk speed / loudness to about a third? How come? I then have to step away, hold capslook (I think?) and scroll all the way up to be able to move at usual speed again
keybind overlap
that's a default keybind though? 😦
so the pain is built into default controls?
maybe this is the way
other issue for me is to scroll select i had to rebind that, so now i use +/- to select different keycard or talk to btr boi
thanks for all the answers
Mornin all. My buddy has been trying to load into the game since yesterday, but by the time the loot loading reaches about 80 percent for him the raids already over. Is there any work arounds for this problem? He's on a m.2 ssd
Are twitch drops received again after a wipe? Or are they only valid for the wipe in which they were dropped?
anyone willing to help someone new to the game out?
There is a way. Couple of core principles you have to learn and use
One of them is - shoot only, when you can kill
if the enemy didn´t discover you yet
i can help with advise
everything will be wiped when wipe comes
lets write here, i don´t do DMs
Best advice I personally can give you for beginning your adventure is SCAV SCAV SCAV as often as you can as soon as its up. Learn the maps that way no risk high reward. You will start to see the difference in what scavs (ones that don't shoot at you as a scav) and PMCs look like. Some people will say not to scav but trust me haha do it
Being newbie is getting shotted off limbs from a bot😔
Brother that happens to 10k hour players just the same haha don't feel bad.
Ok lol
Scavs are either John wick or officer doofy
At this point groups of scavs scare me more than a 3 man
Can you still get the 3 free days of arena if you already finished the quest that gives it to you?
Did you accept the quests from traders for ground zero?
how can i learn these?
i just started all the quests
Where do i find bleach?
You post here your clips. We point out a mistake
and a principle that is important.
Every death is a lesson and this is how you learn
do you wanna jump into one of the rooms to talk instead of leaving a bunch of messages?
Like the most important principle is: Stay unpredictable.
You did well with your ambush there, just shoot, when you 100% sure
no
i can write, i can´t talk
checked tarkov wiki already?
If you want to know, how to do the quests, just google tarkov wiki quest name
An example:
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Saving_the_Mole
In the section guide: it shows exactly what to do, where to go
with pictures and maps
yes it just seems to not exist in my raids
Do you need it for the quest spa tour?
I find alot of bleach in the chalets on Lighthouse and also woods in the scav village building and the bunker specifically
i think piatku should rather just craft it then learn ligthouse 😄
I dont mind lighthouse 🙂 might try hitting the chalets
Lighthouse Mastery = Happiness
I actually low key love lighthouse second best map after woods
a man of culture
looking for someone to play the game with, im fairly new and solo is not going well, any suggestions? or if interested?
tried here? #pvp-lfg
i can talk
Anybody know where to find evasion and can you get it from cultist circle 6 hour timer?
evasion armband
You can if you have collector and you get that role. Honestly I've always found mine on woods in stashes. That is a very ellusive one for some just keep looking you'll find it in passing
yeah last item then i will have kappa on pvp, first time ever
been searching for so long lmao
NICE Congratz its not an easy task. try that cultist circle and scav junk box intel style
but im doing dungeon master atm too, so not a lot of searching
aight aight, ill try the scav junk box aswell
i dmed you back
yo just got my pc about a week ago looking for help getting woods task done map is very rough this late in wipe as a pre flea
I like woods and Customs a lot ngl
And Littyhouse
Reserve is the worst map imho
might be a stupid question but when you get your enconded dsp can the lightkeeper island boss still kill you/ can you kill it or it compleatly disables it?
They don't mess with you as long as you don't shoot them once you can get access tmk
yo for the labyrinth quest how do I get this to unlock
wait an hour and a halfish

Is there a good way to farm cultists on pve? Need those knifes...
night customs is probably the best
how do i know they spawned?
fortress and they are in packs
i do know they spawn there but i moved around it because i dunno if their ai is agressive as hell
like goons/bossess
not really until you shoot 1
So they are chill till you get close / shoot them?
yep
any special voicelines?
I havent played in ages, never was really into the game, where should I start? Tasks?
they make no noises when they walk/run. once engaged they go mad aggro. I have only ran into them twice in 3 wipes, can't recall if they yell after engaged or not
yes, and the ground zero beginning quests
where are the ground zero quests?
go to traders, task tab, the ones with green check marks click on them, then accept. There are 4 for the map Ground Zero (map didn't exist most likely when you last played)
Ah, i see. Ill try prapors then
you don't have to do them 1 at a time, or all at once. Try and get as much done as quickly as you can for those 1st 4
Got the labryinth quests done and got the achievement, when do you get the quest to unlock LK? I still have to do Vacate The Premises, but everywhere is telling me I just need the achievement done.

hi guys all i need for the prestige 1 are these items. Where can i find them easily?
randomly in the world, scav box, or throwing high value stuff in cultist circle if collector task is active and hoping if you hit the 400k value it gives 1 to you
i hope the cultist circle will give attention to me. It's always gives me 14 hours to 5 SAS Drive.
Anytime my friend tries to open the launcher he gets this error its been multiple days now
any help 
can anyone give me help i cant buy tarkov, im in australia
heyhey 🙂 for quest "balancing part 1", does only aug a1 count or aug a3 as well?
Checked tarkov wiki?
whole 5 secs? impressive!
why isn´t your friend asking here?
tarkov wiki says a1, nothing about a3. so only a1?
hes lazy lol
yes. wiki is always right
😉
now you know
use offline maps! they mark things like this there
an example: tarkov wiki
were trying regedits rn as suggested on the eft forums from 2022 
any help would be massively apprecaited
something with launcher version to old maybe?
delete launcher completely
reinstall
i would suggest, if your solution doesn´t work
Can he login to website?
he said he already tried that
and i dont know if hes done the website yet waiting for him to return
he can login to the webiste
website*
uninstalled launcher and game same issue
this attempt didnt fix it either
what country is he playing from?
uk
hes on mobile data
due to no internet in house but its 5g
whats the installation folder?
@burnt sparrow question for you lad
D:\BsgLauncher
created by yourself or did the launcher created this folder?
launcher
good good
nope
Go to D:\BsgLauncher
find "Logs" directory
open and delete what is in it
i have it and can drop it for you?
Looks so different.
Can you tell me, if you can do this?
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/piuzQKot5cs
that way
no i cant log into the launcher
so the game isn´t installed and you never installed it right?
i dont have logs folder either
nope it was but the error came so i deleted it and reinstalled it
navigating manually and opening both main and temp locations in launcher
I think it maybe has something to do with DNS stuff, because of the internet.
As the issue described in forums
I have no idea about that, so i would suggest just follow the forums advise
on the DNS issue
or wait for someone smarter
Also smart people reside here #❌〡community-servers
post how your folder looks like
is there anyone in here that is willing to help a new player out? very new
I wish it worked that way but it does not unfortunately, it will loose it’s “found in raid” status
What region are you
can anyone help me out im a new player with very little known but the controls
sure you playing on coop?
my purple labs card wont sell?
Just played my first PMC run and after trying to loot safely I got insta killed from somewhere outside of the building. Not the issue to me, the issue to me is that I dont know what to bring in other raids. Anyone have some cheap suggestions for loadouts to bring?
Did you list it as cheapest on flea?
AK
from prapor
this one?
yeah
and any armor suggestions? i bring med stuff in safety box btw
just dont take armour
at ll1 the best you can buy is a paca
its not going to do anything
nah just doink a scav
anybody in EU wanna do the first couple quests in woods?
ah and a rig? or just the ammo inside the ak?
sorry for all the questions but you are very helpful
yeah take a rig and the gun
best budget kit
nah i was asking all the same questions when i started, what case do you have?
id farm money in scav runs and then mod the aks from prapor with like a handguard and grip from level 1 skier nad if you have the money or want to you can add a laser, charging handle for extra ergo, and the mrs reflex sight all of which are availaible from level 1 traders
and use the US ammo and aim for limbs unless you have a clean faceshot since its later in the wipe and players will have decent armor. you can also find good 545 ammo pretty easily on woods at either camps
what do you mean by case?
youre secure container
your butt
ah the attechments i dont want to get in just yet but would like to get a scope later on definitely, just something simple
which edition of the game did you buy
oh i have the 2x2 case
