Wa
Yea I think arena is like $20
I just tought it b a fun thing to get
you know how to look up yourself?
Yeah but I don’t really wanna google things all day, I’m sure I’ll find the use c:
buy arena to get ammo cases is the most useless advise i have heard in a long time
reach lvl 15, buy from flea
180K each
Yeah that’s my current plan
Medcase too right?
Doesn’t therapist sell that at some point?
i suggest you look it up.
Just google tarkov wiki medcase
Eh I’ll wait lol
for what=
I don’t wanna be forced to a wiki like it’s beta Minecraft lol
ah, you rely on others to look it up for you
Nope just confirming if I’m right, as well as checking for tagging on rigs; which I’m surprised isnt a thing lol
gl then and don´t forget to buy arena for ammo cases and hold on to 37 metal parts
I think it’s just equipment
I think it’s just the game’s issue if you need to go to google to learn basic things. I’m gonna try and do without for now tho
whats the difference to ask here vs to look up on wiki?
You get a more reliable answer on wiki
Okay I’m done talking then if that’s what you think lol
i am just asking questions
I was asking about tagging rigs. Why would googling the wiki solve that lol
You told me to search up the use of pfilters and mcables.. I said no lol
☝️ u asked how to get medcase.
But its allright
lets move on
No thanks 
stupid question, what's the second longest lasting health regen injector? propital is 300 seconds, is perfotoran the second longest?
I've found a good and consistent "loot run" and want to pop an obdolbos 2, but want more than just a propital. I have tons of perfotoran and pnb's but is there a cheaper/longer lasting hp regen stim besides those 2?
did you ping me @undone drum ? I can't read all of the deleted message from my phones notifications
yeah was wrong sory.
no other stim i think, all of them are below 60 sec
Hi, i just bought the Game but dont know where to download it. can sb pls help me?
damn, is there a way to keep my thorax from losing the hp loss from the obdolbos? pop the propital before hand maybe? I did one run but my thorax going down to 84 before healing keeps me slightly nervous
If you have any advice on how to enter watertreatment/play lighthouse as a bear I would appreciate it.
hey Eikthyrnir you go to your proflie from where you brought the game and it should said install
ty very much
Another question: I am from Austria and i'm playing this game now for the first time. It looks cool but also complicated. Is there any German/Austrian who can/wants to explain the game to me/ wants to play the game together?
yeah im new to the game just got it 2 days ago lol
@lusty mural @late eagle i can help inna bit
Where r u from buddy?^^
north carolina
you can connect West EU or NAE whichever is best
pop propital yeah
i usually do meldonin for loot runs. It lasts fantastic 900 sec, cheap and no hp debuffs
there is a german discord server i will DM you the invite
anyone down to team with a level 25 timmy later
Idk if u had ur anser but go to ur profile on the website
yes i had my answer, but thank U too 😄
whats the best way to get master files ive looked online and it has said run reserve and loot technical crates but i have done it 3 times and not got on any better places?
Customs. I find 99% of my tool items there I also have another buddy who SWEARS by GZ uses that to find his hideout stuff
master tool set? Interchange has lots of them.
on the shelves at goshan
just got out of another reserve with no luck did kill a hk416 gzhel guy with a usp tho lol
ill try the places you mentioned
i’m thinking of getting tarkov should i start with standard and upgrade if i like it or just go with left behind or prepare for escape?
i got the standard and liked it so upgraded but a few of my friends didnt like it so iw ould get the standard then upgrade
if you like it
hi , how come whenever i want to change installation paths it always wants to default back to my other hard drive with no space
i got this armor from an unfortunate trio, should i remove the plates and put it in a diff armor and keep the actual armor itself for a quest, is it rare? Asking because i play kind of hardcore rules (no flea)
Are Tarkov Green Flares expendable or multi-use? And will I lose it if I die with it in my Special slot?
one use expendable, no
omg so having a green flare in my special slot is like carrying a permanent extract unlock for one use?
Does it unlock the extract for my whole squad?
Do the code words work the same way?
flare, yes and yes. Code, haven't tried, i believe it opens for all, but not sure if it goes into special
Is anyone willing to try and cheese co-op extract so I can get more karma?
lots of idiot pmc's who kill me when i'm waiting at the co-op extract on basically any map. Looking to max out my karma.
take the cars as a pmc, it works towards your scav rep
2 cars per map is great exp i believe
don't wiat at the extract, but if you do encounter voip them. Sadly, tarkov in general has a very toxic community for any kind of semblance of trust
i played Hunt Showdown and it's a mile difference
positive I asked if people were willing to do co-op extracts.
didn't ask for advice about a completely different subject but 'thanks'
holy anger
whis key is that so called "menu"
better to just change it to something more accessible, i have mine binded to "L-alt" + "RMB"
i just blushed

logically, interchange
been running ground zero and streets checking liquor stores, but with no luck
good lord, the map i hate the most
whys that
because i go for a walk in aisle 9 and get mag dumped by a rat
never have such good luck on interchange
i hate the game itself
i despise it, cuz i suck at it
so did i, but then i started rolling mfs in customs
glad it clicked for u mate, i have around 190 hours and all i figure out so far is the menus and everything besides mechanics
pvp in general
i get rolled like a potato every single raid
is it mainly pvp you have trouble with? @runic geyser
what got me over that hump is just learning how different guns recoils work, where to aim, and just overall game sense. like having a headset to know where people are coming from and what not.
hi could i please have sherpas help
me and my friend need assistance, we are new to the game, but not too new.
Pve is a great way to learn the game tbh
no tbh, we just want a sherpa to help us run the labrynth required quests
to get access to labrynth
we can hold our own, we run labs and stuff, but those labrynth quests seem like a fucking chore
Ahh okay I thought you was fresh my bad
nah bro like 200 hours of only tarkov and nothing else type of players
we put everything aside and got into tarkov
200 is still super fresh doe
Yeah of course well glad you are enjoying the pain as much as the rest of us haha
could anyone help me guide me through streets of tarkov twice? i have 0 experience on this map
Hey, I'm still new to Tarkov with around 200 hours, and I've been struggling with PvP. In my last 5 raids, I didn't even get a proper 1v1 — I kept getting spotted before I saw anyone and just got destroyed. Any tips on how to spot enemies first or at least make fights more fair?
yo guys where do i find spare metal parts for the shooting range and also bolts for workbench
I have 100 hrs can someone help me questing and pvp pls :( EU
debating on buying it, jsut need to know ill have someone to play with and im not a fan of being super passive in these games
looking for someone thatll help me with quests, im kinda new
when do you engage in fights? At the beginning or end of raids?
Where? At spawn, in the hotzones or at extracts?
Are you killing every scav when you move around?
tried here?

Is there a setting I cN change to help fix stutters when I ads?
what are your specs?
ram is weird. not two sticks of the same ram?
check this guide. Don´t matter if it says streets:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTrAsARQZM0&t#
Ok. I will check. I get 60+fps on customs so it plays ok
if you go into task manager, do you see what is used at 100%?
Memory can hit 90 while loading in but that's the highest at like 70 percent
It's a half second stutter when I ads
why cant i move my mouse on this page and buy stuff
many hands few handholders
You'll probably find better luck asking Arena questions in the Arena Discord
Honestly, I’m not really engaging in fights much I usually try to focus on tasks and end up getting killed before I can even do anything. Sometimes I try to wait out the early fights and move later in the raid, but I still end up getting picked off. I do kill scavs when I see them, but I’m not really hunting PvP more just trying to survive and complete quests
Oh and also it's only for magnified optics
in 90% of the time you are getting killed because you did something predictable.
You take predictable paths, you are around hotzones at predictable timings.
Killing scavs when they are not a danger is a mistake
They act as an alarm system to warn you from other PMCs
anyone know if they changed the spawns for the labryinth key? ive done literally 15 raids and i havent seen it in the health resort
sory wrong person 🙂
whats like a map you are being killed the most?
offf just died on customs flare extract cuz I mustve shot the flare wrong
did you do it in the "flare zone"? Prompt message on the bottom right
then you aimed it wrong. Allign the bottom of your screen to the horizon
oh yeah! shoot and run immediatly
when the sniper "sees" the green flare in the air, he won´t shoot
looking for someone thatll help me with quests, im kinda new
i need help,im super new to the game and ive got everything to build this but it says i dont have the lighter even tho i do
its not found in raid @sinful lotus
I have no idea what that means,i have the item in inventory
I bought it
yes so items to build stuff in hideout or to turn in to traders need to be found in raid
theres a little checkmark bottom right if it is found in raid
"Found in raid" means you found it in raid
Items found in raid lose their found-in-raid status when taken into raid by a PMC
Bought items do not have found-in-raid status
customs, woods
BRO I DID IT AGAIN FML
It fell to the ground instantly again
I went much higher but Ig its gotta be verticle or smth
allign the bottom of your screen to the horizon.
Can you record? And do it in practise raid?
I went higher than the bottom of my screen
my fov might be a lot lower
ima aim right under the spar next time
Isnt if u have them in ur container it also still counts?
If u die)
looking for someone thatll help me with quests, im kinda new
im having the weirdest bug. im on woods and my scope will bring me down to 8 fps if I look in a certain direction
otherwise its totally fine
the sniper mountain and im down by medcamp
using valday 1-6
also i was first to medcamp and it was cmpletely empty
I wonder if there's a cheater or smth
anyone willing to help me get my starter ground zero quest done?
why did my item delivery fail?
Did you have money?
in my puch, does it need to be in rig or bag?
hi?
I am noob and I see Tarkov have a lot of versions which one should I buy?
Which one
I would definitely buy the cheapest one then just see how you like it, you can always upgrade later
Oh ok
PVP OR PVE?
Tbh ive been playing for like a month and i just do pve rn
Would it be very hard?
Helps u learn the maps
I’ve played such games before, specifically arena breakout pc version
Is it similar
Or much harder
harder
Tbh the game is challenging but most times i die its from ramdom pmc grenades or not paying attention
i transit to shoreline then extracted? why does this not count?
You need to extract with the survived status not run through
i was in the customs raid until 5 mins left on timer. was in shoreline like 20 mins and killed 2 pmcs and like 5 scavs
thats so fucking stupid
Might not be compatible with transits
Its not bad you just need to do 1 quick raid to custom
Iirc you have to survive/extract on customs itself and going to shoreline and extracting from there does not count.
when i press sort in my stash it says failed somethimes anyone know why?
Do you get a pop up? Its usually because you lack the space to sort
what?
that clip and vid look sus asf
hey so i just did a scav run and i went to both the emercom and nakatani extracts and neither one would start. I checked that these were open by double tapping o as well. Not sure what the problem was.
u interacted with transit. after this you can only transit
alt f4 when you load into the transit to not transit like a thug
dang. ok. i thiought that was an extract thats why i stopped doing it
so that will take me to another map right?

yo if i prestige, do i lose the progress with ref or do i keep lvl 4?
u lose it, ur arena gets reset too except battlepass progress
damn that sucks.
does that include bp points btw
idk
??roadmap
The preliminary roadmap for EFT is available here -#eft-announcements message
If a boss attacks me,
even if I don't fight back, do other AI scavs nearby attack me?
Specifically on factory, seems to happen quite a bit, where I don't shoot, but AI scavs are agro on me :/
could someone help me with setting in the game i have higher requirements to play the game and i could play well before but now something has change
just pls tag me if anyone is willing to help me
So what is the armor meta once I have the flea market unlocked? A video told me to buy 6B13s but their are no back plates for sell and shit is priced way higher then what it is in the video
where can i find sewing kits in tarkov
Scav raid on Interchange. The back of the store grocery store in the middle. When you see the fire towards the back (assuming you are facing the back of the store towards the warehouse side) hang a left and wrap around through the shelves till you find a side area with two sets of double doors leading to it. I have found more there in my scav raids then anywhere else.
tysm
You can also ask other scavs. I would play cautiously till about 15 minutes left in raid. After that Interchange is swarming with scavs and its very rare to find any PMCs left in the area
But I usually just run around without a fuck to give. I can count the number of times I've died in my scav runs on one hand in there but I can also count the number of days I've played on one hand so ymmv
Lfg for my first round
can sm1 help me get the overseer dorms key?
bro where can I find noodles? not a single one yet
should i leave matching if its been over 6 minute?
On my scav run, I just killed 5 PMCs but only got 0.01 rep for extracting. What determines if I get extra rep for killing PMCs?
(on PVE)
i would appreciate some assistance explaining this bug that Im currently having. on woods rn, this is the second raid this happens, my frames drop a TON (like im at 20 fps and I cant ads) when I look in a certain direction. if I turn around its fine. I can stream if someone would like to help me troubleshoot
try to change your postfx in game and see
I believe rn it would be west
but the last raid it did this it kinda changed directions as I moved towards extract
Are you looking through a picture in picture scope when this is happening?
yes, but it only happens in when I aim in certain directions, and my task manager says nothing is near 100
@minor mural
It's mostly caused by render distance and tons of trees, grass, and textures loading in. It'd a certain direction because that direction is taxing your GPU
this makes sense but then why does my GPU say its fine?
I would try increasing your render distance in post fx so that the pop in doesn't happen.
Because your GPU is fine, it's just a surge of things loading for a second
I see the thing happen on interchange when I pull up a variable optic and toggle it to the long range for the first time in a direction. I need to tinker as well
well for me its not temporary, it doesnt go away no matter how long I hold ADS
how do you change render distance in post fx?
Yeah that's the picture in picture having to render two different resolutions at the same time
I'm afk but I remember there being view distance settings
theres a graphics setting for object lod quality and overall visibility if thats what you're refering to
here
Is tagila friendly to scavs?
no
How can I embed the eft announcement channel in my own discord?
👍 got it. Thank you
I don’t know if that’s the right chat for it but I am quite new to the game and quite late and I can’t get the mission with the repair done on factory haha. Any tips or groups who might help or need the quest too ?
go in naked, repair tools in your safe container, night raid, run to the repair , do it, die, repeat until all done.
Okay Perfect and for the other at Gate 3 I have to survive Right ?
Brand new player - is the “Hold breath” key bind important or is it just used for big scopes? Like do I need to be using Hold Breath when I’m just using a 1x holo?
you can
it helps
gate 3, 0 any extract
hold breath makesi significantly easier to hit precise shots when you are sitting and sniping for example
but you are rarely going to use it in a fast gunfight
Word thanks boys
ye id say its important
vast majority of players use it with 1x sights
Gotcha
Thank you u did it with some luck haha
👍
How the fuck am i supposed to kill killa
or even escape him for that matter he just ate 20 rounds of tcw to the head
TCW SP?
I'd maybe take some rounds that can actually pen him, otherwise not much point going for the head
spray the legs
Then go flesh damage and spray the legs like Flynx said 😛
👍
Break line of sight with him, and he'll rush you
Use doors, you can abuse him quite easily there
thanks, also would you happen to know why every fast mt i find shows a lastec on the side even tho there isnt actually one on the helmet
i presume its a bug but its literally there on every single one
Yeah just a bug i haven't seen it though, you on pve or pvp?
pve
i can see if its the same on pvp after this raid
problem solved i just had to clear cache
bro where tf can I find noodles?
what map are you running?
can someone guide me i bought the game last month and only played twice
I want to get the game but can’t create a battlestate account because the register web page is not working! Help!
Customs woods and ground zero so far
woods - attachment cabin, scav house, med camp, usec camp
customs - barrel caches, top floor of fortress
GZ - just on random tables as floor loot
another quick question for yall im having super slow loading times and some stuttering in game if i send a pic of my specs could i get some feedback on what to upgrade to fix this issue?
sure
Device name Computer
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700 CPU @ 3.00GHz 3.00 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.9 GB usable)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
whats your storage
im new to computer where would i find that
Hiya guys probally gets asked frequently but is there any current promo codes working?
1.14 tb
i have an hdd and an ssd
is the game on the ssd?
let me check
forgive me but Im not sure how to find what games are downloaded on what
its not downloaded on ssd
youll wanna put it on there
okay sounds good
best best uninstall reinstall
get 32gb ram if u can too
eventually youll rage at a death caused by ram and buy more ram
see thats what i was thinking what ram would you reccomend
ddr4
4 or 5 is fine
yeah my motherboard is only compatible with ddr4
i dont remember all the specs u want but its pretty quick to look up
i was looking at corsaire vengance i can get 64 for $100
look at what ur mobo is compatible with n shit
i have 64gb of ddr4 i dont use anymore cause i have a 5 board
planning on selling it, biggest oof
Just gort the game havent play it yet, any experienced player wanna run a duos and teach me a little? 18 and quick to learn
Also hate being passive ratting
mad boring i wanna get some action when i have the oppurtunity for experience
you wont rat but i when your new and want to live you usually play pretty slow
like i would crab people if i were you
crab?
hear footsteps and just sit and wait for them to run into you
maybe but thats boring to
i would do that
but not every time
only when i know im not winning
im a good shot
you have 0 penetration
tarkov aiming is very inconsistent
your sensitivity changes based on what your wearing and your gun to an extent
and your gun sways and isnt centered
but i mean fps experience will transfer somewhat
people in eft chat are trolls, where can i find the overseer key? wiki says shoreline farm guaranteed spawn but ive been going there for past 3 days and not found it, had the closest spawns a few times too and it wasnt there
its bugfed and dosent spawn
tarkov
its either bugged or a really low spawn rate i dont remember
pain
u can use the lfg but a lot of people wont play with new people
some will tho
i personally dont
wheres the lfg
you needa put the anime down brother
yo i had to redownload the game on my ssd and it is repairing the game rn but its been at 0% for 20 mins

Need help with factory fast task
need help with begginer task level 8
lvl6 lookin for some help with beginner ground zero tasks
I'm currently practicing Customs for the Easy Money quest. Did 9 offline/PMC runs so far lost 8, finally survived the last one after ditching my helmet for a headset. Am I right in thinking headphones > helmet early on?
One thing I struggle with: I often get shot and have no idea where it came from. Any tips on improving positional awareness or things I might not be thinking of yet would be super helpful. I try to play stealthy and don't Rambo in, but even when I think I am clear I get transported back to the main-menu. Also, some words of encouragement are welcome, I know this game is hard. But even getting deleted on practice mode feels rough
headphones > helmet
if i could have two things in a kit it would first be a gun and then headphones
Alright. That might explain why the last run I extracted.
ist it possible to set a keybind for changing scope magnification witough having to leave ads?
headphones let you hear much farther and remove harmful audio/ambience
any bind that dosent involve you pressing ur aim button again
can also use alt plus scroll for exact zoom on variable scopes
Got it. Thanks!
to comment on awareness its just an experience thing. its hard to identify where suppressed shots are coming from besides taking an educated guess from the bullet impacts. you can usually try to run around or to cover and decide vaguely where that person is at
but that knowledge comes over time slowly. you can also learn spawns and after a decent bit of playing you learn how people path and the flow of player movement so u can again take educated guesses at player locations
Thanks! Will keep trying.
It does, thanks!
playing solos on channel #13 beginnners if some pros wanna watch and give tips. Dirt poor rn but gonna try to get some wins
Extracted again succesfully after completing task (practice). Those headsets are a gamechanger
they all have different ranges and sounds they muffle differently so you might have a specific favorite one. most people have a disdain for the gssh as it barely reduces ambience and its super loud
no headphones gunshots are literally irl deafening tbh
ah, good to know. I though it was my settings
This is what im running now with. The AK for long-range and the MP5 for CQB
with M882 bullets
and PRS for the AK
you do not need more than one gun
like at all
why would the ak not work for all purposes yk? still shoots bullets
the scope in my opinion is more of a hinderance tho
you can mod the ak out like a decent bit at lvl 1
sight and foregrip n shit
Level 12. 1100 hours. NA PVE. I'm open to helping new players or questing/money runs.
Hey is anyone wanting to run some games I'm like lvl 5 rn
crazy timing wanna run some?
yo, is anyone down to run,im kinda new to the game and just not really having a lot of fun trying to figure out every little thing on my own but always been decent at games like this just need someones help ig
PVE 22
PVE 22
Gotcha. Ill try to see what mods I can attach without workbench unlocked.
ahhh pve just saw im running pvp
u can use the bastion dustcover and whatever sight u want. i like the fastfire
its a 1x red dot
your ammo all sucks butt so your forced to headshot people
any ammo recommendation?
all of them that you have are pretty equally bad
they will get there no armor that anybody is running
through
yeah I noticed with the raiders. emptied a mag and nothing
scavs go down pretty easy
typically in your case you use high fire rate weapons so you can headshot better
accuracy by volume type thing
solo run as a newbie #13 beginners vc
Anyone know how to build the shotgun for gunsmith 5 the videos I see online the build isn’t working for me to turn in to mechanic
Yes I have all these attachments equipped
then you are doing something wrong
such as under 70 durabiltity
u can screenshot it
That was it lol tyvm
repair gun? make sure it's empty
Any new people need help?
i need help running raids cuz im ass lmao
Lvl 20...... anyone wanna team up pve?
I could help you out if you were pvp 😦

new* I can help depending on what task.
kinda all of them man i just got the signal part 1 done and im lost lol
i havent been able to find most of the tasl thats my problem though
How to complete Sew It Good prt 2? I cant get a gzhel under 50%
can i not isurance fraud it?
i tried it but didnt get the gzhel back only the plates
wydm? how are you not new to the game if you don't know where tasks are at?
Like i have had the game for a year i know the basics thats what i mean
oh ok
yes sirrr
so what did you need help with? specially
like i dont know any map besides customs and factory and i think thats why i cant complete my task i use the maps but i cant uderstand the maps if i cant understand where i am at yk
so im i would say the maps
honetly id just say scav them a lot to learn. also maybe pve might or you in the beggining, then switch to pvp once you got maps down
okay thank you i will get pve and figure it out
oh well if you dont own it, just scav maps you dont know and what tasks do you have. i can run a few if you want
man i would apricate it i also havbe a bunch of tasks
anyone wanna pvp im level 7 but i have 300 hrs
You can run offline raids and learn maps stressfree
any new people need help?
Yeah, just saw Desmond's movement video, how do I either break everyone's legs to make them stop or convince the devs to stop trying to make movement "more realistic" when people will get around it anyways
if you want to leg meta use ammo that has high dmg and low pen or both depending on what gun your using
dev part idek lol
howver on the realism part, i like realistic shooters and tarkov is one of the best out there in that category, im fine with making things more realistic
Yeah IDK just... devs try all this stuff to make people slower, then never touch exploits to get around those changes, so if you want to play well you're forced into doing all this dumb nonsense. I'd be fine with the "realism" if it was mandatory, but it isn't. Instead you just jump through weird hoops to move.
It's like 90% of the casual / sweat divide in most PvP shooters
What poster do i need for easy money part 1, i already brought the bison vs undertaker but i cant plant it on the bed
Ohh nvm you have to get the pack one, i thought you just needed to buy it off of flea
Anyone help me with quests early a bit
this was a while ago but do you feel like running a few raids with me? im pretty new just tryina learn quests and pvp
but i need level 2 traders to be able to really do anything 😭
does dlss 4 work on tarkov? i saw something on utube if u enable it in nvidia app it should work ingame
but its still dlss3
idk maybe its not even in the game yet
how can I set 2 medic items on 1 hotkey?
saw a vid where someone had heavy bleed meds on press 4 and normal Healing on release 4
but I cant set 2 items on one keybind smh
nvm I found out how to do it ;D
hello there! I am totally new (about 8 hours gametime) and I have lost nearly everything. I dont have any weapons left, and I nearly lost all of my money. Could anyone maybe give me some advice, I would really appreciate it!
first: analyse why u lost everything
my biggest problem is, that I never reached an exit. Well, technically I did, but I get killed all the time as soon as I get close to one
what maps did you play?
woods and reserve
did you do any of trader quests?
actually, to be honest I dont even know what those quests are
is your scav ready?
yeah, I am searching for a game atm
quit
I sadly could not quit, I got killed instantly. I couldnt even open my menu this fast
sorry
Every death should be a lesson. If you die, you have to stop and think, what did you do wrong
You can always make back gear with scav. Just play carefully and study maps beforehand
yeah thats a good thing to do, should really do that before jumping in
Also there is a way to make yourself familiar with maps without loosing anything
After you choose a map, activate "practise raid"
finally, you should go to traders - tasks and accept all quests. They are all on Ground zero.
It has separated lobbies: lvl 1-20, 21-80
First map you should learn is ground zero
ah i see, didnt know that there were quest, thanks for telling me that
quests are worth doing
just practice Ground zero to learn it then try normal to do them
just watch this guide, while having the game open. Come back and ask specific questions:
thank u so much! I really did appreciate that
no worries. don´t forget to ask questions and
analyse adapt overcome
As a new player myself (around 70-80hrs) i highly advise starting with PVE and doing offline so you can learn the maps and where to extract. In offline you can even set the number of scavs and their difficulty level. The more you learn the maps you can start making the scavs more realistic. The first maps you need to learn are ground zero, Woods and customs because most of the first tasks given to you will be on those maps. Make sure to do your scav runs once you are familiar with those maps because if you make it out all that gear and what you looted are yours.
i agree with everything but PvE
its not worth paying for it. it only teaches you to play badly just learn through pvp and offline
PVE can be used as a tool for new players
so can practise raids
true
i teached a lot of pve players to pvp, its tough to re learn
pve is propably fun, but playing pve to train for pvp is not advisable
I agree with all of what you said. As an older player and new to pc and tarkov I find pve more my stayle while im learning the game and how to play with KBm.
im doing Light keeper tasks right now, and I finished Knock Knock, but im not getting my next quest. its been over 24 hrs.
you have to go accept it from lightkeeper
fuck really, so just go talk to him.
yes and thats for every task you have to turn completed tasks in to him then wait hours then go back to accept next task everytime
fr? has anyone gotten this before
okay sweet, thanks! first time doing light keeper tasks xD
damn, I just died because I ran into a mine field? killed 10 scav, had good loot. could have been a great round for me. what happened ?
mine fields function as map borders
Any Tarkov map you look up will have them clearly marked
Ingame there’s also signs every few meters saying danger
well, then this one was totally my fault haha, thank u
it happens
I think most ppl learn the hard way about them lmao
And the border snipers
i nearly fell from my chair, these mines are really loud
we've all bee nthere at least once
can you buy something from the flea and then sell it back?
you dont need found in raid to sell in the flea then
ohh alright
my friend wants to make a new account on tarkov but is getting stuck in a captcha loop anyone know what to do?
should i sell the psu and dvd
keep a few PSU found in raid for when you eventually build the bitcoin farm in your hideout
try a different browser / machine / network etc,
if that doesn't work, try with a different email domain, e.g a gmail account or something
what email
provider
looking for someone that can help with tasks, im kinda new
pve pvp?
i would consider it but the name is questionable 😭 nah im doing the same thing but good luck lmao
Hey I would like some guidance to buying escape from tarkov. I would love to own the game and try it out but I am not comfortable with having to buy it on a website rather than a well trusted service such as steam and I want to limit or completely remove the possibilities of getting my personal information stolen or my money stolen by buying from a faulty website.
Website is like the only "legit" way to purchase. Buying through a 3rd party site is gonna run the risk of getting a stolen account or something as I understand it. You can wait for it to go on steam in 2029 but you're probably fine through their site...
The purchase is also made through like xsolla or something so you're probably not gonna get in trouble with that.
Ok thank you very much.
the xsolla service that bsg uses for payment is used by steam, twitch and many other companies
I would not recommend using shady third party companies as if the code was stolen your game will be removed via nullifying the key
It's not BSG processing your payment, it's a third party well-known provider. If your concern is BSG knowing your card info, they will not.
NA servers. PVE - Level 13, 1100 hours. Looking to help with early quests, or hit Customs for some of my own.
Hey does anyone know why my game crashes after every raid? its black screen for like 3-5 minutes then crashes
game runs perfectly before/in raid but crashes after every time
in launcher setting check foru files integrity
i tried that already
Any tips for first starting
Don't shoot scavs when playing scav. Can only shoot back once you've been hit by a bullet by a traitor scav already. It tanks your fence rep if you shoot scavs and makes the cool down longer
What the difference between choosing a faction
Other than that learn ground zero, customs and woods first. Offline raids can be helpful to learn maps but it's easiest if you have a duo that can show you around and help you get to extracts
Faction really only changes your starting gear, and can give a slight "advantage" on lighthouse if you want to call it that, but it hardly matters really
Got it thanks
Accept and do your ground zero quests first. It's a game of questing, all the good gear and stuff is locked behind quests. You have to start on ground zero, but there's only like 5 quests there, after that you go to. Customs and woods. Mixed feelings on ground zero. Personally, I hate the map with a passion and get off there as fast as possible
Also, click the blue box next to the purchase option when you are on the trader "buy" screen
Hit the trades tab, and they will have tasks they give you. If they have a green checkmark by their portrait they have a task you can accept. Accept everything
I did
The tasks will tell you what map they have to be completed on. All the starter ones are on ground zero.
Use the wiki and map if you want to try it on your own. I'd highly recommend a sub-level 20 player to help guide you but if you enjoy pain, just send it 😂
So go to lfg
Someone to help you with the meds you should bring in your pouch and stuff is really helpful.... It has an insanely steep learning curve
Yeah I'd recommend it personally.
Why does my game crash with "authorization error" after every raid
so i have chemical part 4 and i have to choose one of the traders and lose standing in the others?? should i even complete this quest? if so who do i choose
I do it for Therapist to get a free injector's case. The other two traders will have quests unlock to earn back the amount of rep that you lost. Skier will ask for 1m roubles, prapor will ask for a bunch of M67 grenades (non found in raid) and therapist will ask for a few keys if you decide to go with someone else. I think therapist's reward is still the best even though flea market is open at this point. Just check how much injectors case goes for and weigh that against the other rewards. I never do Skier's "pay back for reputation" quest because I always have enough rep just by doing his quests anyways.

Can someone explain to me how I died to a grenade here? I'm not sure if it was a tripwire or bugged audio.
Impact nade, another guy deeper
In gate 3? Or the one above me?
Am I missing something about the cultist circle? I keep getting the 14 hour timer and the worst returns. Is there a trick to it?
Could be either tbh, he was definitely cooking the nade for a minute just waiting
you need enough money for that. a blue folder and some other expensive items should do the trick
Anybody got a shroud half mask on their scav? Last item for kappa been looking for weeks PLEASE
yes
Can you run a scav with me rq?

Does anyone know where i can grab some moonshines? I need 2 for the hideout i got lucky with 1 on a duffle but thats it
Cultist circle
I wouldn't bet on finding them in raid,
Maybe if you do full shoreline resort runs?
I'd work on either cultist circle, or just make a booze generator
I know thats not an easy answer but there are certain quests giving moonshine as reward. THe first one needs you to be lvl 35 the second one is the BTR Questline.
2 can be obtained as a quest reward from Circulate
1 can be obtained as a quest reward from Building Foundations
You can read up about how to get these quests when you search for them on the Tarkov wiki.
Not the easiest way but a sure one at least 🙂
Yea ik these exist but it has a lot of perquisites quests which i havent done
I was hoping to kinda just loot them if they spawn in some places
What should i put in?
Is it true that there will now be a wipe in June?
where can we check for currenty events?
??event
Weekly rotational boss spawn increase - Each weekend, one of the bosses will have an increased spawn rate, starting with Reshala.
☝️
hello, anybody has a list of items required for kappa questline?
check tarkov wiki collector
not collector all quests, i got the collector items
use tarkov tracker,
then you can go into settings and hide non-kappa tasks

Hey i wanted to ask if the value of keys goes down if i use it until 1/10 uses and then sell to Traders or if it stays the same
ok then should i sell the customs marked key or use it? 😅
I am lvl 9 and not sure if i should wait till black market for the sell or just use it
Is ref just for people with arena to use? Is it worth doing the quests if I don’t have arena? Without arena are you just expected to buy the gp coins on the flea?
Oh ok, so you don’t need to play arena to use him reliably?
arena is really the only reliable way to get GPs
gp coins are basically roubles for arena
but u cant obtain them through trading other currencies
u need to do quests for them
Oh ok so i shouldn’t really bother doing his quests if i don’t have arena?
just do it if u can cuz thats some xp and gps
but i wont stress about that if u dont have arena
all the good stuff is at ref 3 and 4
his quests lead to a free trial of arena which you can grind quickly in the 3 day trial to get the theta container, but don't do it yet
one of the keys you need to do the questline is currently bugged and doesn't spawn
my dumb ah friend sacrificed his gamma container to cult circle, anyone knows if upgrading from EOD to unheard will give him a new secure container.

should I get tarkov arena before eft?
bp/MAI
ah shit i cant buy BP yet
if u want a more casual experience with the gunplay sure.
its like csgo tarkov
different games
but arena progression boosts ur eft a lot
pp is at prapor 4 & thats what i run most of the time
it should be easier to run than eft also right?
not really
for me it runs worse lol
Bruhh
they optimized eft a decent bit
i get dogshit performance in both games
imo get tarkov its a much more imserive game.. arena is good but it wont teach you map knowladge
does arena give u any advantages in eft? Like any type of currency
ok cool ill try that thx
oo
GP for ref but you need to lvl him
would it still give me stuff even tho I don’t have eft
like I get gp from arena but what if I don’t have etf yet
I see
unless wipe then everyone starts again i think
dang
GP coins and im not sure u could level ref to 4 without arena it would take forever. it also gives lots of EXP. ref is by far the most op trader in eft
he has got some good shit
oo
and in a way with gp coins his stuff is technically “free” cuz u dont use money
o
u can get arena for free?
how much trials?
damn
you could get a better vwersion of the game and get arena included?
OH I GOT eOd WHEN IT WAS AVAIALABLE AND GOT IT
arena is kinda boring IMO
arena exists to simply progress your eft more. most people dislike playing it
dang
i just used it for ref and crates
eft has infinitely more depth
i just do arena for daily tasks
arena plays like shitty rainbow six
There are no sales at this time. To see the dates of previous sales see here #general-chat message

uffff
Hello Hello! im lookin to learn the game and the tactics of tarkov ive purposely avoid watching videos on the game (i have seen a few zero 2 hero runs) ive done the first ground zero quests and have reached level 3 but could use a buddy to teach me how to properly play or just to hang out and play rounds (i do have the pve expansion)
id really watch some video. there far to much to explain. It would take an hour and most people wont do it well. Armor system, bullet system, scaving, and much more
questing loses you money lol, just scav a few times
money dont matter
I agree in an abstract way, but being broke in tarkov means you can't play the game, unless you wanna just walk around and get shot
its extremely easy to get money
just pickup items in the vicinity while u r questing
let me get this staright, ref is still OP but sucks at early levels LL1-2 seems so so but 3 and 4 are great
yes
joining the wipe late sucks, i know i cant get max rep rn
would love some good way to get ref rep
Do great heights quest line
it’s really easy now
bunch of free rep
Hello fellow noobs! Lol
Sent a message.
i bought 10k dollars from peacekeeper how come im not lvl 2 trader yet?

just visual bug then
anyone wanna run a few games im a bit new
i have a scope that can move in and out and have a smaller scope attached to it how to i change from what scope i use
could some1 help me with the ground zero quests?
i will lyk
bet
question, should i be keeping the knives from scav runs? i see people selling ice picks for 1.4m+, do people actually pay that much for melee weapons?
No
alright because i had like 4 of those red pick axes but sold them to a vendor
this man just said no
how did you get 4 red rebels
but like do people actually buy those
yes they are used for certain extracts
crazy luck
yikes, its not as bad as me finding 2 ledx and selling those to the vendors lmao
Wtf 🤣 & Finding Is 4 RR Is Wild He Gotta Be On PVE🧐
all the headphones sound different
yeah.. watched more than 1 person sell to vendor when they didn't know... ouch
No as, you shouldn't keep knives from scav runs
You can check price for every item ingame by right click, filter by item
no, just new to the game so idk 🤷♂️
yeah i learned quickly that day that ledx sell for 1m+
but then again, i was below level 15 the longest time so i didnt see any of the flea market prices
There is a website for that. Just Google tarkov market
Hey im thinking about buying tarkov with my friends but im wondering how does the multiplayer work? Like can you invite them to a party and then you just spawn the same place or what to do you do to find eachother?
you would have to locate each other, you can create a group before going into a raid up to 5 i believe, but once you get into a game you spawn at different locations
what im not totally sure about is if the spawn points are close together
how do you find eachother then is there like a map? and can you see eachother on the map?
its hardcore so theres no "HUD" or minimap to look at. theres maps in game but they arent as good, check out third party websites like fandom, mapgenie, or tarkov.dev. they show loot, spawns, extracts, and how to extract for certain extracts.
and you dont know how far away you spawn from your group?
if i had to guess, its randomized.
usually you spawn next ot your group. In my experience if you spawn seperatew it is in a 5 man squad and 2 spawn in 1 place, 3 in the other and you can meet up then roll on.
Ok and also what is the actual meaning with the game like what are you supposed to do?
shoot, loot and enjoy a hardcore game... rinse and repaeat
and survive lol
i am familiar with hardcore games i have played alot of dayz but is there like a lot of people or is it rare to find other people?
If you dont know something, don't give advise maybe?
well i dont see anyone else helping him out until now 🤷♂️
if i bother you so much you can block me so you dont have to see my trash advice
Thanks for helping! Just leave out what u are not 100% sure. But your advise about maps is gold 🙂
pretty much what the guy said, just enjoy a looter shooter, realistic hardcore survival game.
Maps are big. Usually there is like 8-12 people per map, per round. You can avoid people, but its pretty certain to encounter them.
it is very often that you run into pmcs whether on pvp or e. After some time you learn where the hotspots are and how players normally route based on where they spawn. Honestly much more rare to not run into people
Its not as empty as dayz
one big thing to remember, is when youre playing as a "scav" other scav npcs are friendly so you dont wanna shoot anyone you see. if you kill a scav as a scav, you will lose rep with a vendor named fence.
@queen prawn
what is a scav and what other things can you play as?
theres 2 different "gamemodes" if you wanna call them that. "SCAV" and "PMC". as a scav you spawn in with a randomized kit and just exploring the map with the benefit of not being targeted by other scavs and looting without being bothered, but do keep in mind that doesnt stop PMCs from killing you. as for the PMC, its your "main character" which is what you use to complete your tasks you receive from vendors.
do you get choose like after every game or is it like when you choose its permanent?
what helped me for my beginner experience, play as a scav for bit, use third party websites for the maps like i mentioned above, and just run around looting, exploring, and learning the map. itll benefit you in the long run as a pmc doing your tasks and what not.
you can choose before loading into a raid
after playing a game as a scav, you get a cooldown timer on your scav. just to prevent you from continuously running as a scav
How do you know if someone is a scav or pmc?
pmcs, you can tell just by the outfit theyre wearing or what they have on. as for a scav, they usually act as your typical npc "robot", but you can run into rogue scavs who will just kill anyone, but normally most player scavs are friendly.
