I think i bought a seperate cpu fan

are you meant to re paste it every so often?

o

well thats not too good

how fucked am i

oh

is there a cheap way to fix it quickly?

[dry tangle]

Hey, im thinking about buying tarkov but i dont know what edition i should buy. I've heard the stash on standard and the secure container are shit but I don't want to spend upwards of 100 dollars on a game i don't know if ill like. what should i do?

[weary hazel]

standard all you need but unheard is a better experience if you can affored it

[weary hazel]

you can also just buy standard try the game out and if you like it upgrade

[dry tangle]

so i can upgrade my edition after i buy?

[weary hazel]

okay so change the thermal paste and buy a new cpu fan?

[weary hazel]

yea it will reduce the price too

[dry tangle]

nice

[weary hazel]

so say you buy standard for what 50 bucks i think then unheard will be like 250 instead of 300

i wouldnt really suggest buying any of the middle editions personally

either go big or just play standard

[dry tangle]

so unheard would be 200 after i get standard?

[weary hazel]

something like that

[dry tangle]

alright thanks

[weary hazel]

let me check

ive just been hopping into practice raids with ais to simulate a real raid assuming its relatively accurate

fair warning its a bit dusty i gotta clean it soon lol

should i buy a different one?

map genie . io

[hasty pelican]

Hi i have a newbie friend and i just cant find a way to explain the medical system for him

Like which item is used to treat hvy bleeed blah blah

My monkey friend doesnt understand so do you have any way or image to make him understand how to use medical items?

[maiden marlin]

can get him a grizzly, stops all but blacked limbs

[hasty pelican]

my monkey ass friend tried to use CMS for a light bleed

mf reason was "it looks like it fit"

[slim sky]

Have him right click on it to see what it does

[wanton cloud]

lol

[honest yoke]

that thing is getting cooked

[modest ivy]

So, I just finished Tarkov Shooter Part 3 just now and I plan to do Part 4 later at some point. I got some sniper rifles in my stash for it and I want to ask, what's the best way to complete Tarkov Shooter Part 4? Because I literally have no clue on how and where I could kill pmcs from 80 meters away.

[abstract harness]

pick a longer ranged map like woods or shoreline and look up where the player spawns are so you know where to look

and those are all pretty meta snipers

[hollow jackal]

I founda WZ wallet on a scav and got out of the raid with it; but it's not the same WZ wallet needed for the key case ... what gives?

It looks the exact same, but the wallet for the key case just says EZ while the wallet I have says EZ wallet. There's a difference?

[bleak basalt]

any newer players need customs for questing? or willing to help a newer player. not my first wipe but havent played in a few years

[wary wasp]

yo, i would like to scav in ground zero but does that not put me in a high lobby. + lvl 21. I am currently lvl 7

[north bear]

It could be either under 20 and over. I wouldn't worry about it

[arctic patio]

why i cant turn it in for gunsmith 5 ?

[hot hinge]

anyone down to help with first couple ground zero quests

[fringe jay]

you need 60 ergo

[arctic patio]

thank you i got it finaly

[fringe jay]

np

[slender cosmos]

Wish there was an easier way to tell between boss guards and PMCs
Nothing like ending a great scav run by shooting a random guy sitting alone in a bush, just for the entire boss' army to run out from around the corner

[undone drum]

what map?

[slender cosmos]

All of them lol,
I know there's differences you can see when you look closely,
but you hesitate for a second and you're dead anyway, seems like a lose-lose

[undone drum]

bosses chill around certain areas

they usually don´t roam around everywhere

Be mindful where you are and what bosses are possible there

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HOW DO I DO GRENADIER WITHOUT IMPACT GRANADES IN PVE

[fallen kite]

Anyone got johnb glasses on their scav? ill pay 5mil!!!!!

[undone drum]

Bro don´t break the rules pls

anyone who reads this will give it to you for free

i will, when my scav have them

[fallen kite]

Sorry what rules?

[undone drum]

trading not allowed

not on this discord, not in game

[fallen kite]

i thought it was trading allowed but not recommended due to risk

[undone drum]

If you ever ask yourself, how cheaters can pay for their cheats, thats how

[fallen kite]

wym thats how its got nothing to do with RMT

ik RMT is not allowed im swear normal trading is

[undone drum]

am i missing something?

[fallen kite]

i meant ill gift 5mil because im generous? XD

[undone drum]

Don´t break the rules pls. I scav all the time and i will message you, once my scav have them

[fallen kite]

sound good

[undone drum]

you want to fit it on the lvl1 fast mt?

[valid ivy]

no the level 4 one

its legit not working like am i doing something wrong im not trying to wear it with headphones just being able to put the mandible on the helmet

also makes no sense that when you linked search the mandible nothing shows up why wouldnt it show the helmet?

[delicate citrus]

Where does shturman run off to when you kill his guards? I’ve been running around frantically trying to find him to finish this hunting trip mission

[valid ivy]

i always find him by his stash in the bushes

[delicate citrus]

This dude is the master of evasion

[valid ivy]

any time i kill him i forget where and gotta run back to where i shot him from lmfao

[undone drum]

send screenshot of the helmet pls

[valid ivy]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ops-Core_FAST_MT_Super_High_Cut_helmet_(Black) This is the helmet

This is the ghost mandible: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ops-Core_FAST_Gunsight_Mandible

@undone drum

[undone drum]

i know how they look like

can you screenshot yours pls

[humble cave]

The mandible goes on the side armor

Not on the helmet

[undone drum]

thats why linked search goes to the side armor first!

makes sense now

[silk heart]

checkpoint mode needs a fucking rework lmao

cant even get out of spawn if you get lower fort spawn

[delicate sable]

Hello?

[cinder dove]

Anyone have an issue making an account? I can’t get past the captcha when registering. It has me complete the captcha and then nothing happens

[void roost]

do you have a VPN on?

[cinder dove]

Negative just using avast

[soft dust]

i have the same captcha error but in the launcher

someone have the solution 😦

[void roost]

try chrome

[void roost]

make sure you don't have a vpn, restart your PC, reinstall launcher, try some of those

[soft dust]

thx for the answer but didnt work that

also i deactivate the windows defender and firewall and all that

last solution its gonna be format the pc i guess

[cinder dove]

I’ve done everything he mentioned. At a complete loss here

Shouldn’t have to re format my fucking pc to play the damn game.

[soft dust]

true

and the support (from tarkov) didnt help a lot

guess gonna have to play delta force or stardew valley

[valid ivy]

@undone drum @humble cave thank you guys lmfao that makes sense now, shit sucks without ears but thats good protection

[valid ivy]

@cinder dove i think you just gotta give it multiple goes it sucks

[soft dust]

gonna give it a try

all help its welcome

[cinder dove]

I have fucked around with it for a couple hours at this point. I personally don’t have patience to continue. In my opinion, a game of this caliber should not have issues making a fucking account. I might just save my money.

What do you need to do to get a mod for help? I’m sure there’s gotta be someone here who has an actual fix

[soft dust]

okey i was trying the brute force mode

didnt work

[soft dust]

at least you can save your money men i already buy the game some time ago, hate this shit

and the support from tarkov are lazy af

[undone drum]

very unique bug, never heard

[cinder dove]

Great, these are all very inviting things to hear as a new player 😂

[cinder dove]

There’s some talk about it on Reddit but no fix

[soft dust]

yup

[cinder dove]

I just wanna try the damn game out

[soft dust]

its a great game... legit its fun

if you can play it tho and thats the issue xd

if you want to try the experience of a extract game without so much content you can play delta force or arena breakout🤷‍♂️

[undone drum]

whats your system?

[cinder dove]

As in?

Intel or amd or like specs ?

[foggy palm]

Hey guys where could I find a chat to ask for newer players wanting to team up?

[void roost]

wouldn't go that far. Sometimes, their website is just down, I'd just e-mail their support, and also usually #community-support is a better channel for this, try asking in there

[void roost]

#pvp-lfg #pve-lfg or discord.gg/sherpahub

Thank you!

[cinder dove]

Wifi and wired isn’t an option at the moment

But good connection and very good internet

[cinder dove]

Forgot to ping

[undone drum]

its wifi from router right?
Could you try and login from a hotspot?

From your phone?
Just to see, if this is a router problem

[cinder dove]

So I did actually try it on my phone and had the same issue

[cinder dove]

I can use a different browser on my phone. Give me 5

[cinder dove]

No luck

[undone drum]

your phone is in the wifi right?

Can you use mobile data and try it again?

[cinder dove]

I disconnected it prior to trying to make the account. I was using data

Can I dm you?

[stone spindle]

hello, i did encountered something weird today

i play with a friend, we are both doing a scav on reserve, we spot a pmc, i kill him, and loot his tag (so pmc is confirmed), my friend enter a building and get killed by a scav that was there, (name of a scav on the death screen) , my friend reputation with fence is 1, why would a scav kill him ?

(nothing else happened in the game, it was at the very begining so i went for extraction after that)

[tidal lagoon]

it was either a guard or ur friend did something to hurt scavs during the raid

or a player scav

[stone spindle]

we are in pve mode, we did not shoot anything , i'm the only one that shot the pmc

the name was a "regular" scav name with two words

[tidal lagoon]

who knows then

[stone spindle]

okay, rip him 😦 , i thought we had missed something, seem like we didn't

[red rose]

if i sell a mcc to fence can someone else buy it? on pve

[slim sky]

ytes

[swift moss]

can anyone help me w my tasks i dont rly know any of the maps (pve btw)

[finite pike]

Anhone know how to get passed the captcha error when registering? 😦

[ocean edge]

yo im brand new to the game just played my first game and got clapped was wondering if anyone would be down to help me out?

[undone drum]

can you screenshot and post it here?

[undone drum]

with advise here in text for sure

[finite pike]

Yes

then does this

if you click register once it does nothing, then if you click it again it unchecks the box and you have to restart

[undone drum]

tried a different browser?

[finite pike]

Yep tried 3, and different pcs and my phone

[undone drum]

[undone drum]

Yes

I don’t really have a way to change it now

[undone drum]

mobile data?

[finite pike]

Except cell phone data let me try that

[finite pike]

same result

I sent them an email hopefully they respond. Just got my pc yesterday really wanna try the game

[void roost]

a lot of people have been having this issue today, the support e-mail which you said you've e-mailed is indeed your best course of action, hopefully it's resolved shortly.

[dense jewel]

Looking for some help getting back into the game, not played in years & a few people ive grouped up with ended up being toxic loot whores who ransacked my body after i died

[nimble turret]

hey how do I change my gear icons to be the turned ones that streamers have

[topaz forge]

wdym

[violet adder]

gear icons?

[nimble turret]

like your helmet or body armor or even earpiece

[violet adder]

i still dont understand

are you asking how to change your gear?

[abstract harness]

like rotated with r?

u cant do that with gear equipped on ur character tho

[void roost]

Post in #screenshots what you mean I think we're all a little lost on what you mean

[tall smelt]

wtf is this

[opal ridge]

That’s a blablabla

[desert crown]

[raven veldt]

i just bought the game how do i download it?

[orchid swift]

Anyone know why I can’t access the pVE when I bought the expansion for it

[patent wadi]

If you go to your profile on the website theres an install button, you cant miss it

[patent wadi]

Might take a little bit to kick in, did you just bought it?

[mortal monolith]

BEGGING for help with pocket watch task i keep getting killed

[dark parrot]

I just got kicked out of the btr with cash on back back, does it need to be in rig or pocket?

[steel mist]

I should probably play arena to get a feel for the gunplay right cause i keep getting my butt kicked and reseting my game profile

[dark parrot]

No don't reset dude! Just fail forward. Nobody comes into Tarkov and is just good off the bat. Enjoy the process. You're gonna die. A lot. Don't be frustrated, just learn.

If it wasn't challenging it wouldn't be the same rewarding game

[void roost]

Typically throwing it in the pockets resolves this in my experience.

[steel mist]

bet

[dark parrot]

Thanks

[dark parrot]

If you DM me now I can do a raid with you

[finite pike]

FYI, hopefully this helps others, I used a different email and it worked first try.

[rocky prism]

can someone help me sell the things i dont need and organize my stash please,pm me

[fading field]

what am i doing wrong????? ive been sitting thjere being shot by scavs for the past hour and it dosent work

[desert crown]

this quest is buggy i handed in both with full dura

try taking the plates out btw

[fading field]

yeah i still cant hand it in but its also now not 75% so ig i have to get the armor without any plates to 75%??

[desert crown]

oh prob yeah

the plates dont count

[fading field]

ok ty for helping

[desert crown]

gg

I never get 6B back from insurance

[sudden nexus]

you can just buy a damaged one

or just play some pvp and you will be bound to find one on a personm

remember they dont need to be found in raid

[opaque delta]

Guys, do u know if goons tracker is accurate?

[sudden nexus]

just buy some and go into a raid

[nimble turret]

I posted them if you need me to show the exact gear I can

but one of them is turned

[sudden nexus]

eh, not the task im complaing about lol

[faint coral]

Anyone know some good spots to find thermite?

[bronze mist]

Best thicc item case barter? I am not sure whether to sell vodkas+whiskey, keep moonshine for scav case and wait to task up to peacekeeper barter or just stock up on booze

I play Pve 😅

no ref for me yet

[void roost]

They're all the correct orientation, perhaps you're talking about the gssh's that look a bit goofy?

[bleak basalt]

SCAV queue broken? about 90 min deep into not being able to queue into anything

[slim sky]

Moonshine bc u can craft everything yourself without buying

So u can passively craft the bulk of it with water collector and moonshine generator

And then buy the rest

And use food station for whisky and vodka

Vodka is 1 moonshine and 5 water for 10 btw so its super easy

Ledx can be crafted but its a bit of a PITA and its rarer to find than moonshine

Defib is also really rare, ive actually found way more ledx than defibs. But the craft is easier than ledx but more than the drinks

Peacekeeprs is prolly the worst tho

But u can craft more of it now so i dont actually know

[undone drum]

Might be matching bug, restart the game

[mystic ivy]

cant register into the site, keeps telling me to complete recaptcha even though I did, tried different browsers, didnt work

[versed jetty]

oml how many upgrade do have to do for this thing? i'm already tired collecting stuff mr. krabs

[fallen kite]

anyone know a fast way to find john b glasses

[bold jetty]

scavs or duffels

[mystic sun]

Can anyone explain to me how can I differentiate between scavs and pmcs? It happens a lot when I’m scaving that I see a pmc and I think it’s a scav and I get easily killed

[fallen kite]

Scavs often wear wacky clothes, no balaclava, voiceline russian and swivel on the spot

[pastel peak]

Does anyone know why i can’t upgrade the illumination on mi hideout, i have everything but it appears that i dont have it

[mystic sun]

Yes there are some scavs this can be easily distinguished but I’ve been seeing many pmcs wearing strange clothes that really confuse me

[mystic sun]

Ensure that the items needed for the upgrade are “found in raid”

[fallen kite]

just takes time

[hot hinge]

anyone down to help me with the first couple ground zero quests?

[bold kernel]

still need?

yeah bro

[weak fog]

Hi, I am playing PVE, on the knossos quest

i have checked all 5 key spawns on the wiki 2x

and have not found it, i saw on a youtube video that it was a guaranteed spawn 1x per raid

am i doing something wrong?

[bold jetty]

how old was the video

its not a guaranteed spawn anymore i think

[weak fog]

you know chance? i can't find it

[bold jetty]

nah sorry

idk pve but maybe try flea if it is available?

[weak fog]

nothing on flee, not sure if its tradable

[patent wadi]

Cant be put on flea

Theres many people who said the same thing, it probably came as a stealth change with the laby nerf

[finite pike]

best settings? brand new to PC have no idea what anything does. have a 9800x3d and a 9700xt

[maiden marlin]

how much r taigas rn?

[upbeat bane]

The more you play you will begin to tell the diff. Pmc cant be around scavs or the scavs aggro. Pmc usually Have Army Pants & Boots. Scavs Be Wearing Tacky Stuff. If You F1 You Can Voiceline Them If They Dont Voiceline Bck Might Be PMC. If PMC Does Voiceline Back Its Usually American English

On Scav When I Think PMC Close I Double Tap Y For Commands & Yell Attention!! Then Double Tap Y Again & Voiceline I Need Help Command 😂😂 The Scavs Pull Upp On BT

[narrow oracle]

What do i do until level 15 where i can go on flea

[upbeat bane]

Task Task Task

[half sleet]

I found medical items as scav. The items are tagged found in raid for the task but I can't seem to hand them in they doing show up in the real screen to hand over

The task screen

[hidden kernel]

you have to click on traders tab

then open which trader it is

then it should say hand it over

i had the same trouble yesterday

[half sleet]

But there is a task screen that shows an item inventory to hand over?

[hidden kernel]

try to move it to stash if u can

[half sleet]

Did that

[void roost]

PvE seems harder at the very start, but it's much more forgiving overall for learlning - especially considering the fact that insurance is guaranteed. I recommend definitely starting on PvE, at least for a while, to learn maps

[void roost]

#pvp-lfg #pve-lfg

[ocean edge]

what?

[hexed raptor]

Anyone got a good spot for KEK Tape? I'm level 23 and I haven't found one in any filing cabinets or toolboxes. Can't craft more until I find the first. Send an amberlamps.

[undone drum]

check text that followed the timmy command

You have 2 hours in game, so a sherpa, someone who can teach, might be helpful

[void roost]

back shelves of interchange or tech supply crates in places like RB-PSV1/2 and PSP1/2

[hexed raptor]

oddly enough, two maps I haven't dived into just yet.

[void roost]

Shoreline smugglers base

[timber nest]

you can craft them in your lavatory lvl2 , if you cant find them you can try to focus on getting lavatory

[hexed raptor]

you need one to upgrade to lav 2.

[timber nest]

crap i feel dumb now

[hexed raptor]

which one is smugglers base?

[void roost]

North East side of the map, up by car

[hexed raptor]

normally I wouldn't sweat it, but it's literally holding up everything now.

[hexed raptor]

gotcha, thanks!

[mystic sun]

Thanks a lot I will try to distinguish them going forward

[arctic token]

Is it possible to scav into your pmcs raid?

[tidal lagoon]

yes

[half sleet]

Ahh. I didn't know about the insurance angle on pve. Definitely sometime to consider. Tks 👍

[austere plover]

you on now bro?

[tranquil narwhal]

What’s up chat! New to Tarkov, lookin’ for a friend to show me the ropes. DM me if you’re feeling generous with your time.

[hollow elbow]

Hey guys,
Really having a hard time getting some real good PVP.
I feel like the games mechanics are holding me back. A lot of times I feel like my keyboard inputs arent registred as well. Lean, jump and others just doesn't register.
Anyone have experienced the same?

[rigid gyro]

Weight and momentum could be what your describing also tarkov has different mechanics from most games

[hollow elbow]

Yeah I know. Actually has been playing for a long time, and just got back. I know the basics - but I cant really get to use them in the fights. When playing Arena I mostly top score, so I know im not totally shit. But in-raid PVP is something else.

[undone drum]

strange

[hollow elbow]

Also, do you guys' character just freeze in place for like a second or two, when standing up from prone?

[silk heart]

sort of?

movement is janky in tarkov

[hollow elbow]

I am like 100% frozen for a second or two. Not entire screen, just the character.

[rigid gyro]

Maybe they added inertia while you were gone lmfao

Movement is indeed kinda janky

Kinda, it’s not bad but not good yk? Just different

[hollow elbow]

Played with some inertia - but I see what youre saying 😉
Yeah movement is different. But then I see some streamers which seem like they have gotten the flow of it. It just seems miles away from my game.

[topaz forge]

yea this is a common bug

it fucking sucks

happens after vaulting too

[red rose]

where do i find scavs on woods???? i went in just with a pistol so i can kill ONE SCAV and die or something but since 7 raids i only found pmcs

[slender dew]

town, abandoned village, old sawmill, scav bunker, med camp, usec camp... literally all over

[red rose]

HOW DO I NOT SEE EM

[finite pike]

Doing the tasks is the best way to progress right? Just keep checking them off and I’ll be going in the right direction?

I already feel like I’m spending more time looking shit up than actually playing haha, wanna try to get away from that

[short bay]

the only way to progress. tasks get you most xp and actually level traders for better gear

[finite pike]

Bet thanks

[short bay]

if you are new this will continue for a very long time unless someone explains the basics to you directly

the game has a ton of overcomplicated stuff, that could have been either easily fixed or removed completely to improve the overall qol feel of the game

[finite pike]

It took me 30 minutes to figure out his to put a optic on my rifle haha

[short bay]

see what i mean

i mean i can explain some if you want i have time to waste

[finite pike]

I’d love to later, I’ll dm you

[short bay]

that depends if i am awake, but sure 😄

[carmine garnet]

Is there a way to make it so I either have the laser on OR the flashlight on.....and not both?

[maiden marlin]

depends what tac device but should be ctrl click

[bold kernel]

i got the game like an hour ago and died like 5 times, can someone play with me?

[outer vector]

why does my game freeze for a second every time i scope in

[short bay]

got a ton of lfg groups here you can join

[bold kernel]

which channel?

[short bay]

scroll down on the official discord here and you will see tons of beginner groups

[bold kernel]

ohh i see it thanks

[carmine garnet]

ctrl click just fires the weapon.....hmm

[maiden marlin]

right click

[carmine garnet]

ctrl right click switches between my two sights

i have a scope and a red dot

dont judge me....idk wtf im doing lol

[topaz forge]

i think the default keybind is like ctrl t or alt t?

[carmine garnet]

When I spam ctrl t.....it just clicks, nothing turns on or off. it just stays with the laser and light on. Just T turns both of them off.

[violet adder]

its because you have 2 different devices

[earnest flax]

hello, I'm hoping someone has a solution to this, for the last hour I been trying to register so I can purchase the game but it keeps telling me to enter reCAPTCHIA

[violet adder]

if you had 1 device (x400 for example) you could just toggle between laser -> flashlight -> laser w/ flashlight

[topaz forge]

use one of the combo devices ye

cant toggle like that with diff devices

[violet adder]

yeah

@carmine garnet either take both off and get a tac device that does both, or take one off and play with just a laser or just a flashlight

[carmine garnet]

OHHHHH so I can't toggle both of them if I have 2 separate devices. I just tried it now with a combo device and it's working as intended. Thank you for helping me work that out

[violet adder]

you can toggle, but you're not (cant) toggling them separately, so you're just going to end up with the same "cycle" over and over

only way to fix what you had would be to take one off while they are both on, then do what you want with the other one, then put the first back on

yeah a lot easier to just use combined one

[carmine garnet]

ahhhh ok, that makes sense. I'd rather stick with the combo one lol. thanks again

[light marsh]

i cant load into raids with my friends on pve can anyone help i swear i tried everything and i got a good pc im just lost why it keeps saying server connection lost only wit friends and only some raids but its not my internet

[tulip shell]

any spots on streets of tarkov that vpx can spawn

[wintry mango]

Is the intelligence folder important???

[heady pilot]

what maps are the best for loot, i know when i played before reserve was by far the best but from what I've heard it has been changed a lot

[abstract harness]

about 380k on flea

used for intel 2

[wintry mango]

Oh ok

[rich kestrel]

I am not receiving any mails from battlestate with any type of code how can I fix that?

[astral glen]

Please contact support about your issue

??support

[red thistle]

[e-mail]

[graceful frigate]

I’ve been having problems with servers the past few days it’s alright for 1-2 raid then continue to be disconnected over and over again I’m south England any suggestions?

[rich kestrel]

Will do thanks

[mellow peak]

does .388 1 hit sniper boss?

[modest ivy]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TdkGstxf04

So, I was on Interchange earlier and was trying to extract with little time left, as well as some loot, but ended up dying. Any ideas on how I could've played this out better? Looking back, I felt like I was getting too tunnel visioned against these player scavs and should've just went a different way, but what do you think?

[undone drum]

good assesment

If you want one advise that will make your games better: Play less predictable.

Here in this situation you should have moved after the first couple shots.
Shoot and reposition, shoot and reposition is the way

Watch the guy you fight last: He is moving a lot, while you stand still. Even those micro movements during a fight, help to survive a lot

Use depth of the room: You where killed by the scav to your right. Go deeper into the room to create an obstacle to an angle, you can´t watch

And finally: If you ever in a raid think to yourself: "Hey, should i extract now or continue?"
--> Alway extract

[modest ivy]

Yeah, I should've just ran away the moment I missed those first shots. Maybe go around the mall outside and just go straight to the extract. All I did was waste time dealing with those scavs.

[undone drum]

[idle whale]

does anyone have any advice me and my buddy is new to the game

[undone drum]

do you have a specific question?

[idle whale]

how do we not die all the time and get loot

thats our biggest problem

[undone drum]

how do you die?

on what map, at what point in raid?

by whom?

[idle whale]

sorry i was in a raid and got hail marryed by a granaded

but its always from behind or some sweaty kid and where just map hunting

[undone drum]

whats map hunting?

[idle whale]

like jumping around maps after we die

[undone drum]

you are being killed by players or scavs?

at what point in the raid?

[idle whale]

players and its like 5 minuest in or some times in the start or at the end

[undone drum]

do you use offline raids to navigate?

[idle whale]

offline raids?

[undone drum]

sory offline maps?

[idle whale]

no

[undone drum]

if you play PMC (not scav)
its important to know where people spawn

Use offline maps from tarkov wiki for example where enemy spawns are marked

[idle whale]

yeah i play pmc

[undone drum]

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

scroll down, there are some maps

[undone drum]

if you die to players in the beginning, its because they know where you are, because spawns are static

study spawns, know where enemies can be

[idle whale]

ok thank u

[versed jetty]

would it be safer to run a night raid on street just for quest? or is it a bad idea like every other map that night raid is filled with geared players with thermals and nvg?

[narrow oracle]

and cheaters

[versed jetty]

i mean, that's just on any raid doesn't matter if it's night or not lol

[undone drum]

i feel evenings are the safest: when in the raid it turns dark

[versed jetty]

gotcha

[versed grotto]

Other than doing Dailies and Scav runs for Fence.
Is their another way of getting the rep up?
I avg kill 1-3 PMC per run. So helps.

When I play as a PMC if I use the Vehicle exfil on GZ does that help?
Currently at 3.64

[versed grotto]

I'll agree to a later comment. Do evening runs where its dark enough to get cover and sneak but not too dark where you'll constantly need a torch

[tidal lagoon]

yes using v ex is the easiet way, u should use them on all maps as they have seperate rep counters

[versed grotto]

Oh what!! All maps? Thought it was just GZ 🤣
Thank you. Is it like 0.07 increase or what's the increment?

[tidal lagoon]

proper info is on wiki under scav karma, but im pretty sure each extract starts at 0.20 rep now and then diminishes after each use

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

currently there is 5 maps with car extracts i think

[versed grotto]

Absolute Star!! Thank you. I'll take note.
Probably explains how I got 0.1 on 1 run. Ended up killing 4 PMCs who domed 2 Scavs.

[eager pulsar]

streets shoreline woods gz interchange customs lighthouse all have car

so 7

[peak rapids]

Brand new to the game first day playing anyone trying to run some and show me the ropes?

[cobalt topaz]

im new to the game i level 7 gettting used to it but i have lost every weapon lol so i dont know where to start to loot to get out with some weapons 🤣

[fringe jay]

scav runs on a map u know

[cobalt topaz]

ok ill do that thank u

[arctic token]

Guys I cannot find virtexs for the life of me, I’m doing the 400k cultist circle and when I do get 6hrs I get nothing useful. I run lighthouse all day so far and even yesterday. Chalets, Marin, hillside house, destroyed boxes etc. But I still can’t find any! someone please help me with some valuable information to solve this crisis 😭

[arctic token]

What’s a snoozehouse raid?

[slender cosmos]

How do I get a sub 50% durability gzhel in PvE? Scavs seem to only target unarmoured areas :/

Ah fair, thanks

[opal ridge]

Will partisan shoot you if you’re a scav?

[vital oasis]

how are the hideout keys from ref these days?

[fallen kite]

anyone got john b on their scav?

[fallen kite]

can do

[lilac igloo]

yo i need someone to play with who can help me learn and play tarkov

[tidal lagoon]

idk about lighthouse and woods, but the grumpy on IC is pretty good for its purpose which is armor/ammo, almost always get a ghzel/slick/zhuk and lvl5-6 plates with tons of ammo

only opened 1 shoreline but ive heard its pretty good and has decent ledx chance

[vital oasis]

COPY TY ENTO

[nova sun]

where on reserve are the loot? i found this bunker with a lot of grenade boxes but they cannot be looted

[stone notch]

I have not bought the game yet but I am waiting for a sale. Does anyone know when the sale might be?

[nova sun]

you just missed the spring 20% sale

[stone notch]

That sucks

[nova sun]

i was gonna buy it for my friend but then the sale ended

[charred perch]

Hello completely new to Tarkov and I was wondering how the Secure containers work. If you get multiple containers... do they stack ?

So I start with Alpha, but can I buy 2nd Alpha container from Peacekeeper ? Can I use both at the same time ?

And what about when I get the Beta container via barter, can I use Alpha and Beta together ?

Is it possible to lose Secure containers ?

[slender cosmos]

Welcome!
You can only have one secure container in the slot at once,
so always upgrade to a larger one when you can, - mainly through questing
you don't lose the container or anything inside it,
but if you die, the stuff inside won't be tagged 'found in raid'

[charred perch]

what does that tag mean in essence

like is it a bad thing if it's not "found in raid"

[slender cosmos]

some quests and your hideout upgrades require you to hand in items that are tagged 'found in raid',
this means you go in - find it, and get out alive,
so you can't buy them etc,
crafting them also counts as found in raid though,

[charred perch]

gotcha

also when I have standard edition, the max stash I can get is 30+28 ? or can you reach 100x10 max with standard like Unheard is 72+28 max possible ?

and additionally, do you get your edition "bonus" every fresh wipe ? or is it a one time thing

[slender cosmos]

The editions just upgrade the 'stash' in your hideout for free,
So nothing stopping you from reaching the same space as someone with EOD through just playing/upgrading - (max of 10x68)
Unheard gives you 4 extra rows on top of that

And yeah, you get the edition bonuses each wipe

[charred perch]

okay thx. Couldn't seem to find clear info from anywhere xD

[tulip shell]

Anyone know where vpxs can spawn on streets of tarkov

[red rose]

what is the biggest bagpack you can buy on the flea?

[undone drum]

can spawn in lighthouse

water treatment plant

[slow flame]

hey @undone drum do you know the command for download errors??

[undone drum]

no

[slow flame]

ok thanks then

🫃

[hallow forge]

they dont :/ go to lighthouse or reserve

[charred perch]

are the maps in a random cycle or can you choose which to queue for ?

[slow flame]

you can choose

you could also be a player scav if thats what you want

[charred perch]

can scav also choose location

ideally i'd just spam the same map so i can just focus on learning 1 to start with

[slow flame]

yeah

id recommend you learn GZ first

for your starter questing

[simple glade]

hi guys, my game is permanently crashing, it freezes after a certain time and then it just crashes. (got a 4080 super, so that shouldnt be the problem) Can anybody help me ? Thank you

[charred perch]

thx

[olive temple]

play ground zero for questing, for scav runs id say dont go gz cause the loot is bad and people stay in it for too long

[charred perch]

Reserve, Customs and Interchange look interesting to me, are any of those good locations for scaving ?

[undone drum]

all of them

many starting quests on customs, so i would focus on it

[charred perch]

okay

[finite sail]

reserve and interchange for scaving is great, customs not so much

[sand dock]

disagreed

[finite sail]

interchange for more hideout items

[sand dock]

customs is great

[finite sail]

and reserve for big money

[finite sail]

its not for me lol

[sand dock]

dude the new spots they opened up are usually have great stuff

or stuff i can sell to make a killin

[finite sail]

i can make way more in reserve

[short bay]

if i go to customs, then go to interchange via transition then extract from intrechange, if i do anything of that in less than 7 min will it be a run through?

[finite sail]

the marked room near the command center is open alot of the time and not looted, free guns, and a SHIIT loads of cabinets

great armor vid

[undone drum]

yes

[hasty pelican]

Cpu?

Do you do cleaning?

And ram?

Your disks too

These could affect the performance

Or maybe just dust overheating youe pc

[simple glade]

gpu 4080 super, cpu amd ryzen 7 9800x3d

[sand dock]

I dont even have half that power and i can run tarkov i wonder whats going on with u

[simple glade]

i think the issue is that i didnt install the launcher and the game on the same hardware

[simple glade]

thats why im wondering

[hasty pelican]

That shouldnt really do anything

You can have them on different hardwar

When do you crash?

[undone drum]

how much ram?

[simple glade]

32gb

[hasty pelican]

The moment you open the game you crash or after loading into raid you crash

[undone drum]

all looks good

[simple glade]

during a raid, sometimes 5 mins in and sometimes 15 mins in, never ended a raid

[hasty pelican]

Huh

My friend has this same condition he always crashed at 20mins into the raid

[sand dock]

have u ran the repair thing from the launcher?

[simple glade]

yes ..

[simple glade]

whats that?

now im trying to download both on the same hardware

launcher and game

[sand dock]

fuck it

try it

[simple glade]

what exactly?

[sand dock]

what u said

[simple glade]

yes

[sand dock]

just put on the same hardware and lets see if that works

sounds like some wierd run time error

[simple glade]

if not, do you have any oother suggestions?

[charred perch]

how hard am I trolling if I don't pick up any keys ?

[undone drum]

Do the holy trinity of tarkov bug fixes:

• clear cache
• delete logs
• verify files

all in launcher

[hasty pelican]

Its same with rizzing a girl up and then dumping her

Wasted potentials 💔🥀🥀

[simple glade]

ill try thank you brother

[sand dock]

or a bullet dodged

lol

[charred perch]

lol

[hasty pelican]

If all of it doesnt work

Uninstall and reinstall

[undone drum]

lighthouse has 21 open spots where a bitcoin can spawn. no keys needed

[hasty pelican]

Unplug and plug technique

[simple glade]

delete and destroy monitor

[charred perch]

lighthouse seems a bit intimidating when i don't know the map very well

[undone drum]

learn the map

[sand dock]

delete system32 folder while ur at it

I have very bad memory xd

that's what i did when my drive was full

[crisp ember]

Hey guys, I'm looking to buying tarkov but I'm having troubles with registration. I get through everything even the security picture thing but it still doesn't let me register. Any advice?

[sand dock]

damn it i was having that problem too but i fucking forgot what i did

[crisp ember]

Yeah I get through that

It just won't let me register

[undone drum]

what should it do, that it doesn´t?

Send you an email?

[crisp ember]

Nothing pops up saying I've registered or even asking to verify email

Russian game company be making everything weird and buggy

But it works it works

[simple glade]

perfect thank you

[sand dock]

np i hope it works for you so u can join in on the fun

and for ur homie too

[simple glade]

lets see lets see ..

[hasty pelican]

Tarkov is mainly cpu i think?

Thats what i have been told

[sand dock]

i mean i see it eat up my GPU when im running it...

[undone drum]

👍

[simple glade]

have a ryzen 7 9800x3d

[undone drum]

CPU + Ram

[simple glade]

so shouldnt be the problem

[undone drum]

your setup is perfect for the game

[sand dock]

even tho its suppposedly running of my cpu

ya ur setup is great dude

im running it on low graphics with my setup

[hasty pelican]

I dont rmber my setup much iit has been a year or more

[simple glade]

spendinng all that money to not be able to play a game that is 10 years old

perfect

[hasty pelican]

Something like 3060, 32gb ram, i5 12th?

[simple glade]

gpu is 4080super

if it doesnt work now, im not supposed to play eft

[sand dock]

honestly its probably something small

cuz ur pc is more than capable of running it

so thats not the issue

[simple glade]

think so too

ill see, now they are both on my ssd (launcher and game)

[sand dock]

I feel like its something during the installation

ok

when u get it up and running go into a offline raid and see if it does the samething

so that way ur not losing ur stuff to bullshit

[simple glade]

alright ill try now

thank you for your help !!

[sand dock]

np dude

[simple glade]

are there any graphic settings that could affect the game negatively?

like settings you dont need at all

[sand dock]

uhhhhhh i wanna say no but there are graphic settings that should be on i feel

but ur pc shouldnt be breaking a sweat

[simple glade]

thats why im wondering all the time

[sand dock]

if any tarkov's optimization is whats funky

my graphics are lowwwwww

but these are my settings

also I kicked up the brightness up on my monitor so I can see a lttle bit better

[simple glade]

alright ill see thank you !!

[sand dock]

np homie hit us up if u need anymore assistance

[fringe jay]

95 vibrance is crazy xD

[sand dock]

i can see EVERYTHING

[fringe jay]

post fx straight outta hell

[sand dock]

man aint my fault this game has the dullest colors none to man

i gotta pop everything out

fucking multiple shades of green look the same until fixed that

[simple glade]

should i go anti aliasing taa or taa high?

[sand dock]

i mean ur gpu is strong enough

id say enable it and see if u get good visuals without performance loss

[simple glade]

practice mode i like plaing offline right?

playing*

[sand dock]

yes

[simple glade]

going in now lets pray

[sand dock]

fingers crossed

[simple glade]

not just my fingers ..

[sand dock]

ima go smoke a cig brb

lol

[charred perch]

can you put a red rebel inside a secure container ?

[simple glade]

Everything Crashed hahahahahahaha

[sand dock]

wow

[simple glade]

Pc restart

[charred perch]

did you delete system32 ?

[sand dock]

LOL

[charred perch]

(i think if you delete it, it just installs itself back, pretty sure)

[sand dock]

ya dont delete that that was supposed to be a joke

are you sure?

[charred perch]

pretty sure but not sure enough to go test 😄

[sand dock]

xD

[charred perch]

but anyway can you actually put a red rebel inside secure container ?

[simple glade]

so im f'd basically ?

[charred perch]

oh nvm apparently red rebel counts as melee so you can't lose it

[high abyss]

i dont feel like questing but i wanna get better at the game what should i do

[fringe jay]

yee

[fringe jay]

play arena ?

[high abyss]

dont got it

i have theta i have 400 hours

but i dont know what to do

questing is lowk hard and boring

[charred perch]

yeah i don't like quests either, seem awfully specific and arbitrary requirements, but I guess it adds "stuff to do" besides brainlessly looting the same spots

[fringe jay]

i usually get lvl4 traders and then play whatever

[high abyss]

im at 400 hours level 38

i have some level 4 traders

im at 9 mil roubles

[fringe jay]

24/7 customs xD

[high abyss]

nah

customs is an awful map

[fringe jay]

havnt played the new one in PvP much

but out of my 2k hours i got like 1,5 k on customs it feels like xD

[high abyss]

wtc

i have like 200 on interchange or smth

ima hit labs

with an sks

[winter niche]

what is the door to the right of the file cabinet room on factory?

[high abyss]

thats a breachable room

its for a quest

i think skier

[winter niche]

is there any key rooms on factory?

[high abyss]

yeah factory key its like a secret extract

[winter niche]

I have been mianing factory on pvp while I kearn strategy

[winter niche]

any others or is that it?

[high abyss]

that should be it

[winter niche]

aww dang

was hoping I could run some decent keys on this map

[high abyss]

nah no marked or anything its lowk a bad map for loot

[charred perch]

uhhh so how do I avoid accidentally shooting other scavs while I'm running as a scav

[high abyss]

look at their gear

if they are pmc they are stacked

[charred perch]

i can't tell if they're a player or not based on gear

[high abyss]

or do press f1

u will do a scav voice line

showing ur a scav and mostly they do it back

[sand dock]

thats the beauty of tarkov

[charred perch]

i'm never getting 6 rep bruh

[sand dock]

never say never bro its just gonna take time

but once u get the gameplay loop going itll get a LITTLE bit easier

not really lol

[charred perch]

i mean if it was me, i'm running trash gear as pmc

[sand dock]

same here dude

[charred perch]

so "high gear is pmc" isn't really applicable in my mind

[sand dock]

im running a m4 setup on in a adar and take out pmcs with dome shots

[charred perch]

especially when it can also be another player scav who just looted a pmc

[sand dock]

just aim for the head

and play smart

[spice vortex]

Player scavs you can hit a few leans they usually do it back

[sand dock]

right doing the wiggle is still a tried and true method of seeing if the other person is chill or not

if they shoot at u while wiggling u got ur answer lol

[winter niche]

I mean, agree to disagree, ik there is probably better but I have gotten like 5 insane t4/t5 kits from pmc's

[sand dock]

use them

[spice vortex]

Very true haha

[sand dock]

im guessing u have some gear fear ur gonna have to get over that

[winter niche]

idk I just like the map being smaller so with decent headphones I can hear footsteps and just chase down pmc's with a big bag to fit it all in there

[winter niche]

oh nah not at all, the last like 8-9 raids I have ran an hk416 bc I am an HK fanboy lol

[high abyss]

I mean like rare loot aka labs marked keys

[winter niche]

it lasted me a while, got beamed by a pmc after a bit but it made at least quadouple the value with the kills it got

[sand dock]

niiiiice i still havent used that gun

thats it

thats tarkov

just keep doing that

[high abyss]

im at 400 hours i dont really have gear fear im just scared to go alone

[winter niche]

tbh it would be good to note that this is on pve, I am not feeling well and am getting good at pve so just getting used to the game with it and when I feel better physically and can deal with loosing decent gear and probably being poor, ill get into pvp

[high abyss]

other than labs with an sks and nothing else

[winter niche]

Just been pretty much grinding pve factory and racking up roubles

[sand dock]

be sneaky when u can and when the sneaking mode is over, its on then

[charred perch]

i'd already be dead by that point

[sand dock]

same, i was scaving and some other player scav shot at me from fortress in customs and I went over there like TF DUDE were scavs we dont shoot each other

[winter niche]

Used to play pretty much a "Temu Tarcov" called Lost Light and thier factory map is pretty much 1-1 of the tarcov factory map, so I am just playing for the comfort of knowing where I am going lol

[charred perch]

you aren't scared to be alone, you're scared you're not 🙂

[sand dock]

the dude was new to the game and didnt know

[winter niche]

lol real

[high abyss]

play alone*

[sand dock]

playing tarkov solo is like how it should be played i think

[charred perch]

i play every game solo

[sand dock]

same lol

[high abyss]

just got a ledx from violet

[winter niche]

what map in yall's opinion has the best loot? I wanna run a map with good loot from keys and stuff, ive got about 7-8 mil rubels at my disposal and wanna take in a good kit to a map with marked keys and stuff to use

[charred perch]

i would rather play in a group for sure but i don't have clones of myself who are on the same page with me lol

[upbeat bane]

Solo Is Bomb My Best Raids Be Solo

[sand dock]

damn ur ballin, imo customs

[charred perch]

shouldn't labs be arguably best loot since it costs to even enter ?

[upbeat bane]

Most The Other Times We Busy Tking Each Other

[winter niche]

nahh dude It's just on pve, imo that makes it not as cool to think abt lol

also tysm

gonna try to run some cheap-ish kits on customs to learn it

[sand dock]

i totally get it

[charred perch]

what do people call a cheap kit even

some people said 500k is cheap lmao doesn't sound like so to me

[high abyss]

labs

buy yellow violet and black

learn it

ive made over 20 mil from it

i just got a led x from it rn lol

[charred perch]

i'm here running with like a 175k kit 💀

[spice vortex]

Taking the stuff from my scav over to my pmc

[winter niche]

imo a cheap kit is a krink with a pilgrim and a red dot, then a zenit handgaurd and a zenit grip

[sand dock]

id say this?

[upbeat bane]

lol wthelly

[sand dock]

dont mind the empty mags i just got out of a raid

[winter niche]

thats a med kit?

[charred perch]

comtech 6 so expensive, no ?

[sand dock]

xD yes

and yes

comtac 6s being the best

[charred perch]

they're my favorite but almost 100k ...

[high abyss]

why is that gun called an m4a1

thats an adar

[charred perch]

it's with the barrel mod

[sand dock]

its my "cheap setup"

[high abyss]

mmm

[winter niche]

Dude this is the kit ive been running and its only like slightly more expensive then yours, how does it even get better?

[charred perch]

you attach the m4a1 barrel onto adar, it gets renamed as m4a1 but it's actually better than the real m4a1

[sand dock]

i find a adar or m4 or both in raid and just make it into a adar most people arent gonna want that

[winter niche]

m4 with wood furnature

[high abyss]

how the hell do u have a rush 100

[sand dock]

and ill insure it and bam

[winter niche]

got it off a pmc last raid

[high abyss]

yeah no

dont use that what the fuck

[winter niche]

been running an attak2 bag then just found that last raid

[winter niche]

why? I have like a 12 survival streak

[sand dock]

fuck running a bag imo just get a bag in raid so youre light and can sneak quietly

[winter niche]

running this kit on factory bc ik the map and can 2-3 tap every pmc and scav, then just mag dump taguilla and pray lol

[high abyss]

that bag is extremly rare

if im not wrong

[winter niche]

yea prolly

ive ran like 150 raids and just got one

[high abyss]

wow

[winter niche]

btw if I insure a bag in pve, there isnt any players to take it, meaning ill get it back 100% of the time?

or is that logic wrong

I have done all this shit in pve so I can learn the gameplay and map and whatnot

[high abyss]

oh wait u play pve?

[winter niche]

yeah

[high abyss]

ohh

[winter niche]

thats why I've been saying my shit aint really impressive lol

[high abyss]

i was like dude

[winter niche]

im over here killing taguilla 4 times a day, ts easy bro

[sand dock]

O.O

[winter niche]

yea, just learning the maps and how to play well and agressivly like the good players, then when I am recovered physically from my issues ive had lately ill be ready to feel mental pain and start playing pvp

sweating my ass off aginst the pmc's preparing for the real ones lol

[sand dock]

i feel like nothing is going to prepare u to go againest live players in tarkov

its a different animal so to speak pve and pvp

[winter niche]

well if I play violently and am used to aiming head-eyes I should be ready for em lol

[sand dock]

like learn the maps learn the scav and pmc spawns

[winter niche]

ofc

I gotta def do that

[ocean edge]

facts im still learning the maps but factory is the easiest one to learn

[winter niche]

I gotta get outside my comfort zone and stop playing factory

[sand dock]

yes

[ocean edge]

its the smallest one but there is only one extraction for pmcs that doestn require a key

facts ive been playing the woods one

[winter niche]

I already pretty much knew it because I played a 1-1 version on my temu tarcov game lol

[ocean edge]

havent tried any of the other ones

[winter niche]

real

[ocean edge]

facts

[sand dock]

just like i have to get out of my comfort zone which is customs and go to woods and do that damn jaeger quest

[winter niche]

I tried woods and I should prolly play it more

[undone drum]

if your confort zone is factory, ur doing something right

[sand dock]

^

[ocean edge]

i havent done any of the quests tbh im not trying to play alone while i do them

[undone drum]

don´t get lost

[sand dock]

but its soooo much funnnnnn lol

[ocean edge]

thanks bruh

[sand dock]

feeling that anxiousness when u hear foot steps running

[winter niche]

I gotta try ground zero a bit, i havent done many quests, but im not really fiending for guns or anything, I just buy things off the flee market if I am absolutely desperate, but I havent lost a kit in like 20 raids, the only thing in my way for now is taguilla pretty much

[sand dock]

getting that badass head shot on a pmc

[winter niche]

lmao

[ocean edge]

wait how do you make it to where you can see where youre at? idk how to work this website

[sand dock]

u gotta sign up for it

[fringe jay]

i mean its PvE so aint that bad to go out of your comfort zone

[sand dock]

i was wondering the samething

[ocean edge]

nvm

[sand dock]

i mean ngl dude 20 raids without losing ur kit in pve sounds like ur good enough to come join the real thing

u have soo much cash so many kits and not losing it

[winter niche]

I agree but I am not physically well so I dont feel like stepping out of easy mode till im recovered

[sand dock]

thats makes sense

my comfort zone is anxiousness

[winter niche]

Had a surgery yesterday so feeling like shit, dont wanna deal with being poor and feeling bad abt that too lol

[charred perch]

is pve private or are there still other pve players ?

[fringe jay]

you just change guns when the durability gets less then 93 xD

[sand dock]

right lol

[fringe jay]

in your party yes

if u want xD

[fringe jay]

but after the AI changes they be hitting nades like crazy xD

[sand dock]

iv been finding that dependent on what im doing and where im at

like i usually rat and partisan will come out of nowhere chunkin nades

or some scav boss with a nade launcher on his ak will come after me

[fringe jay]

in pve ? come on man xD

[sand dock]

but usually when im ratting

oh my bad lol

dude my bad ur in the minority here

but its just what i know

[high abyss]

i just had a very good labs raid

[sand dock]

iv never been to labs

[upbeat bane]

Go Time

[high abyss]

i only went in with an sks and ended with crazy stuff

[fringe jay]

comfort zone and shit

[high abyss]

i didnt run into a single person either

[sand dock]

i can only wish i had containers

[honest yoke]

dont forget your headset if you value your eardrums

[high abyss]

only went in with an sks

[fringe jay]

whats with everyone running secondary pistols xD

[high abyss]

i got some blue folders as well

[winter niche]

anybody able to show me around customs? I wanna get some good loot but still be able to find an extract or learn where 1 or 2 of them are

[winter niche]

I can buy some keys and run em with whoever is willing to show me around

[sand dock]

i cant dont got pve

[winter niche]

[upbeat bane]
