any tips to do grenadier ?
hmu for what eva
double click on it which ever has the most penetration that the one
buy an impact and throw it at people
you cant buy impacts tho can you ?
yea u can
tf
some guy at bsg decided it was a great idea to add impacts to lvl1 prapor
so you get 1 of each impact each restock for like 28k each
1 each restock kinda ruff
its 2 more then it should be
u also have the dumbass reduced delay f-1s that u can buy on flea for 30-40k each
1.5 sec delay its basically an impact
tryna do quest that i havent never done before cuz usally i just rush max traders and pvp after but i wanna try to get lightkeeper

Big fan of PvE myself. Haven't touched PvP in years. Decided to dust it off and get into PvE for the first time and I'm hooked! #screenshots message If you're ever looking to learn without campers and such I think it's worth a try even if you intend to get into PvP later!
can someone help me with setting trying to get more frames
What are your current setting and what are your pc stats?
any older heads (no disrespect) wanna show a new player the ropes?
I can at later time if no one else had time for you in the mean time.
Yes sir.
bettt lmkk ill be on for about 2 more hours
Im free all day but you can add me in dm and then I can help you when you have time. Already helping some one now.
chilling hitting light house and interchamge and whatever else
Hey new player here, any advice on how best to learn at this point in the wipe? I'm up to all my customs quests (only played it as scav before).
What exactly are you looking to learn?
Playing PMC in Customs with lvl 1 trader gear as a new player
Starting from scratch then I recommend spending time learning a map or two. If you can knock out quests along the way, great, but if you find yourself not making progress on quest no worries. Just focus on acquiring gear and leveling your character. Keep using your scav for that, there is zero loss if you die.
For game mechanics check out the wiki. You'll also learn with time the general hotspots due to loot density and how you can avoid or exploit those. Watch some basic beginner videos too, there's no question that can't be answered on YouTube
Feel free to use the #pvp-lfg/ #pve-lfg channels to find others to play with. Alternatively you can use #sherpa-info to get some more dedicated help from a Sherpa. There's a lot to cover as a new person and having someone experienced guide you helps tremendously
Ive this infinite captcha
opinions on some good ammo for shotgun for the Setup Quest?
Ap 20, .50 bmg, flechette, piranha
Remember you can take mp18 too and snipe for the quest
visual bug, for some reason it caches the texture, but does not update it when your gear changes, same when you NVG duplicates in the ON and OFF position
fletchette vs AP20 for shotgun
762x54R PS for the single shot rifle
fletchette is better for spamming but with AP20 you can engage from further away
I get it now, thx
i go into a scav and tagilla kills me, isnt he also a scav?
he is a boss also. bosses kill scavs with fence rep below 6
you need like 6.0 fence rep to have 100% chance to be ignored by bosses
any one want do a few custom runs i am new and i kinda know that map

BUG IN PVE LABYRYNTH, sometimes keys dont spawn to get IN the labyrynth from the puzzle
how do i load into a raid
Hit your pc power button
if i get a task to kill scavs without bodyarmour am i st ill able to wear a tactical rig with armour
Yes
You can wear a rig as long as it isn't armoured
if it is, can't you just drop the rig/armor before you take the shot, then put it back on?
you can do that
Is anyone looking to play a few games together?
Does anyone know if when there is a wipe do you get the stuff you got when you started the game back like the 2 m4’s and mp5’s?
You get the stuff back at wipe
Yup, it just reverts your stash, task progress, trader rep and skill leveling to what you started with
You start with the items that come with your edition of the game
2 things actually
1 u were slightly past the flare zone when u shot the flare, the flare zone stops past the posts the reason u got the popup is because u ran through it briefly
2 the sniper scavs will kill you if you run off the train tracks into the ditches regardless of whether u have successfully used a flare or not
Simple answer bro is wait for flare pop up and then run only on the tracks 👍
Usually middle one
Ok, so that means I have to shoot the flare behind the posts. Does that also mean I have to shoot the flare before I get the pop that says I need to use said flare?
Shoot the flare, once you see the pop up. Approach it slowly
Try to do it in practise mode
Ok
is there any way I can make my GPU use more than 10%?
can someone help me do Farming and Signal quests? Thanks
I am using medium textures with low shadows, somehow I have more FPS w PostFX on than with them off
any reason to use this ammo? i killed lvl 50 with t5 armor and he was using it
not really sp7 is the best for leg meta soo
okay ty
could someone teach me a good loot run route on any map please? i am desperate for 2 drills cant find them for my lifeeee

Im down to run some quests, Im not new but dont have a lot of hours either
dope
Im closer to prestige but I cant do Collector quest since my Laptop isnt strong enough to run Streets to do quests there
so its just not possible for me to prestige at all, correct?
hey i’m really new, completed a few task and raids. anyone willing to help a noob?
I can help with advise
oh great! what do you say i should focus on or first things i should worry about as a day one?
Accept quests, make yourself familiar with the map ground zero
Watch a beginner guide from Jesse kazaam on YouTube while you play
wow thanks man! appreciate it. will do. maybe we can play together in the future.
Until then, ask specific questions here!
sounds good
One message removed from a suspended account.
yea that happens sometimes
last time it happened my teammate still spawned next to me
even though i had moved from spawn
can someone put a osovets foregrip on flea so i can purchase it for a quest? or is that not allowed
i need it but im not lvl 3 skier yet
2 more rep .-.
In the future just try #pvp-lfg
I can help you with advise otherwise try #eft-chat
well i need help i am trying to do gunsmart part 12 but i dont have access to that foregrip
is there another one i can use? im not that familiar with attachments and weaponbuilds
im trying to knock down the gunsmith quests
Its def allowed
It must be possible aslong as you keep the needed specs good
Have you tried any other options?
yeah but i dont know what to look at it doesnt let me put it in
i just follow yt channel builds and it shows osovets with no alternative
there is no subsutition for that item, i has to be one of those 2 osovets
It doesn't specify in the quest right?
The question was the osovets not the pistol grip
i think im having a stroke because every time i look at the wiki and game info changes lmao
Yeah I know thats why I started doubting myself
Tarkov wiki says Osovets needs to be included
One of 2, no alternatives
I do not see that on the wiki tho
I only see skel grip, annihilator and las/tac 2
got it from soneone, ty
Good, gl with the otherparts

huh
Its to easy for you
looking for someone who can help doing quest THE DOORS
is the bullet drop of cbj pretty noticeable compared to 5.56 bullets? is the mcx bad at long range
Yes I would say there is a big difference in them over 100/150 meters
Not saying its bad but 5.56 is way more relaible on that range
Helpful tyvm
Np
I need some more help I have gotten a lot better after the last time but a big problem I have now is that I can hear anybody very well like even when there running it’s a little hard to hear and I have my volume all the way up in my ear buds is there any settings or other things that might help with this? (It’s not my ear buds they sound fine in every other game)
If its not your earbuds then its Tarkov's sound engine which is quite shit
hi, do you need healt resort key 303 to open the lock? wiki fansom says no but i want to be sure

how do i kill reshala
Hey everybody. Any1 looking to help me get to level 15?
what u need
Just need to level up and kinda just bored
Everybody has all this gear and I am feeling like a beach Bob lol
like what task/map
Oh mainly customs. The one where you find the water and then extortionist
we can trio if you want
Oh I'm down with that. What do we do?
Tips on looting bodies? Loo I know it sounds stupid, but like 90% of the kilos I get on pmcs I don’t even get to loot. Feel like they are always in a bad spot
I mean, it depends what you are going for when you kill someone (eg very open) you could tactically use a smoke grenade if thats what happens the moast. But typically i dont have any issues when killing and looting people.
If they're in a bad spot you could drop your backpack, rig, and make sure you have a slot for an extra weapon. Then run up to the body and equip everything, then run to safety to check it.
Does anyone know where i can find topographic survey maps? Is there a spawn for them on certain map?
Check drawers, I've also found them on Rogues
man my rng must be horrible, i keep looking for it, ive literally found a ledx before i can find the stupid map thing i need for my hideout upgrade
So, first thing you need to do is to check the common angles that people like be at or angles that you think someone might be at. Example of this is this sniper spot at Customs, that you need to should check if your looting out in the open. This is important, because I've killed players who didn't check these angles, whether it's cuz they didn't think about it or got lazy.
The second, quickly loot their pockets first, then grab their gear, guns, helmet, etc. You wanna loot the pockets first because it's not something that you can quickly grab, unlike a rig, so do that if you can. Don't spend too much time looting, that's gonna get you killed. Take what you can and leave. If that means leaving behind some loot that you think is valuable, so be it.
There isn't an easy way to do this, best you can do is keep searching and hope for the best.
would u recommend any map/location to keep running as scav?
Me personally, I always scav Lighthouse because it's so easy to get good ammo, attachments, and gear there. I've also scav'd Reserve for leftover guns from the Marked rooms to get money/free weapons, but I wouldn't recommend that as a serious money making method, as it requires luck and hoping those marked rooms are unlocked in the first place.
i mean a location with loads of draws, to up my chance in finding the survey map?
Bunker room in Reserve has lots of drawers, that's a good place to start
There's also plenty of other buildings in Reserve that has drawers, not just the bunker
great thanks ill give it a go
No problem, good luck, dude
yo if i buy 2 different apparel outfits can i mix and match the upper and lower bodies
Yes
havent played for 3 months, unless they changed it safes have them the most
Do you drop your mag when running and pressing r?
No but when you double press R by accident
Or if you don't leave space for one mag in rig
needing assistance in finding items for hideout/ pve
elaborate.
stuff like this for a few diff things no idea wher most the stuff is at
shoreline, smugglers' camp or construction site along the coastline
Woods new bunker
is this key good?
Decent
welp what is going on here?
Yes!
How do you put sights on weapons like i know i need to find a rail or mount but i dont know how to see if the mounts fit on the gun or how to see if the sight fits on the rail/mount
Hop on dms
I will teach i
You
If you have items in your stash that you know will work -> right click -> modding.
If you want to see what other options there are -> right click -> Edit Build.
You can play around with all kind of builds and see if the weapon fits the needs u want to have. Important are ofc Ergonomics , Vertical&Horizontal Recoil aswell as the total weight. Scopes are personal preference and flashlights go from meta to functional (x400 is the most cost efficient laser+flash for example).
Thi is great. Thanks. Didn’t even think about it. Also could help with insurance if someone is watching it
is there anyone on Eu that wants to join in on a pmc interchange run with me and my friend? we are kind of new to the game so if someone that knows alot can help us out that wouldf be great
Why interchange?
we like the map and its the one we know the exits on and we have a pretty long time to get out i feel
Did you know 2 bosses there spawn 100% now?
no i didnt even know there were bosses on the map
They reduced spawn rate now
You are 61% safe
Weekly rotational boss spawn increase - Each weekend, one of the bosses will have an increased spawn rate. This week is: Kaban!
The otehr 39% is them bosses spawning
i can onlu find one boss on the wiki
the streamer event is over already
Ah thanks!
Hey guys, I would like your opinion on this. I am a casual player of this game, this is my 3rd wipe, but I have never really progressed far in this game, but that is okay to me, I am still able to have fun.
The question I would like to ask is : Would you consider it 'worth it' for a person like me to buy any upgraded version of this game?
Because sometimes I just think to myself that it'd be so nice to have a bigger stach, or a gamma, etc..
yes if u enjoy the game and see urself spending more time on it yes
Depends on how often you play the game and whether your financial situation won't be impacted by it. It's not really a decision any of us can make for you. But if you see yourself dumping a ton of hours over the years into this game, probably
Alright, thank you guys.
Wait foreal?? Damn I wanted to run it
never played tarkov just got it and ive died idk what im doin need help
use a website called tarkov-market
or use the official wiki
I can help with advise. Do you have a specific question?
nahh not specific i js wanna learn how to play the game i load in get like 2 kills run around cluelessy then die i cant find anything to loot and sometimes accidentlty find the extraction
and im gear fear cus i suck at getting loot
Hey, I'd love to help you learn the bases of this game. I sent you a Dm if you are interested !
Legend
Is Shatun, Grumpy, or Voron better?
Depends on what you need? Good ammo,guns etc or things you can sell and get good money from
learn to scav properly
I'm more interested in rare objects that are inherently valuable, and can go in a secure container
There are on different maps but same loot afaik.
Is one of them more advantageous in location?
Guns and armors, plates is the content of those
Shatun is pretty safe
I would say pick the one, where you know the map best
ok, cool
Kaban is 100% all week or ends today?
all week.
i need that gun lol. need to complete gunsmith 25
Would love to run some matches and get used to the games nuances if possible in pve just till I learn
I’ve only used one shatun key. The first use was like 600kof loot + lv 6 plates. Pretty sure I got a BTc on second open. Then the rest have been trash
But it’s super quick if the EV car is up
And I seem to always spawn right beside it too
I see. Have you done anything with other keys?
I have not
Guys, I need to find 5 Electric Drills, where can I find them?
which maps and areas are more likely to spawn electric drills?
Check out tarkov wiki real quick. Just google tarkov wiki electric drill.
Interchange 4sho Oli
id say the back of interchange and tech stores
Thanks guys, I'll be hitting interchange more frequently now
Interchange is the now I’m most scared of for some reason. Have definitely played it the least. It’s so confusing for me haha
Acrually don’t think I’ve ran it all on PvP
How to find metal spare parts?
I just craft them in workshop lvl 1
Yeah but i need found in raid mark i need it for the shooting rangwe
if you craft an item, it's considered FiR
ok how to craft them?
you need the workbench constructed, lvl 1 is enough
then with a screwdriver and a toz simonov, you'll generate 1 metal part in about 1h
Last question for a while from me : is class 5 armor a big upgrade over 4? And if so what’s the best / quickest way to unlock? Is the proper lighthouse water treatment task the best way?
or a leatherman tool and a VPO will generate 2 weapon parts, but take a little longer
But i cant find it in the workbench
oh, sorry LOL
those I just find seraching toolboxes
there are some in the train yard in reserve
can i find them on interchange thats kinda my goto map
I dunno, interchange is not my map of choice.. other people should know!
Yes
i just havent seen a single one tho
is there toolboxes on interchange?
Lots
where?
oh nvm
i know where some are i didnt know the model of the toolboxes looked like that
Should i take everything from my scav character after a scav raid or leave the stuff i spawned with? Does it affect anything?
Interchange Been A Movie Since My First Raid This Sun Rise 😂
If you sell it from that screen, it sells it to fence. Which gives you the least amount of money. I would transfer it all, then keep quest / hideout items. And sell the rest to the proper vendors
Yeah okay, but if i for example take the gun and backpack i spawned with and sell them or use them on my pmc affect negative on my fence rep?
i did read somewhere it negatively affect my fence rep…
No
no you can sell everything. the only thing negatively affecting fence rep is killing scavs
As a scav
yes
okay bcs i have always left the gun,rig and backpack cuz i thought i get -rep lol
but thanks!
No no no, the whole point of is ( on a basic level) is to give you a way to get a free kit. Even if you have 0 rubles
Just don’t kill scavs as a scav
I’m not even sure what map that is lol. GZ?
yea
Honeslty don’t have a clue. The best way is to go outside and read names of the big buildings
Yes its gz
got it figured out yet? if not hop on #4 beginners and ill walk u thru it
anyone have any tips for getting the scientist package out? I lost all my good kits and I've died 4 times trying to get it, I don't have flea so I am
gear diffed and night raids are definitely not quiet right now.
Tried to team up? Just join beginners or ground zero voice channels
And ask politely if you can tag along
ill give it a shot but im terrible
You need to go to emercom
Everyone is dw
night raids r just full of low levels like me duking it out at quest spots lol
like
its been 7 minutes
guys, is the flare pistol worth keeping?
what task shoulkd i do between two fires or decisions bet6ween ref and fence for the theta case what one is better?
Ye If U Want To Use Extract
but what's the advantage of using the pistol instead of the bare flare
none
thanks!!
there is one flare for the gun, that makes the bosses friendly.
so rare i have never seen in in my 4k hours
What does a giant cloud of green smoke mean on woods?
Is setup worth brute forcing at this point? Not trying to get kappa or anything
screenshot?
I meant to take one but forgot and died so can't grab one still
There were some right behind one of the sawmill buildings and then more a little bit away near that usec check point or whatever it's called
Ton of people swarming too
I was camped out from a bit of a distance watching it until a scav tried to shoot me in the ass and my position got revealed and died pretty quick after
Green Smoke Flare Most Likely
Ok
Why when I’m tryna edit a build almost every item
Is not available when I try to purchase it? Is it because I’m too low level I’m like lvl 5 or 6
You don’t even have the flea market to buy parts, get to 15 then try again
Some things are available not a lot tho
Yea it’s because there are traders too, but your traders are level 1
You basically brute force it until 15
Ok so Can you buy everything at lvl 15?
if you mean weapon parts, a lot of them are locked behind quests or trader level. at level 15 you can buy what players sell (what the game allows) on the flea
any sherpas on or anyone who wants to run a raid
So whatever players set for sale
I Can buy? Or is there still some restrictions?
either its at the extract with the flare or people are abusing the smoke grenade glitch
very obnoxious glitch
yeah there is a glitch to throw infinite smoke bombs that only show up to others and not the thrower
its so bad on factory and labs
will it reset my keybind each time im running EFT Arena? i just wanted to shoot some heads and everything was reset to default that sucks
how to avoid my keybinds getting reset again if i want to play normal tarkov + Arena
I need your help getting my gzhel down to <50%. DM me if you got time to help a desperate solo gamer with no friends 🤡
u wanna someone load in raid and shoot you, while you have ghzel on?
yes
there is, check the official wiki what they are
try and get one off the flea thats fucked up
is there a good Tarkov overlay that anyone would recommend?
hmu killin pmcs
Wdym by overlay
cuz those are typically not allowed
stuff like a map on ur second monitor is fine but stuff that interacts with the game/is overlayed onto the game is not allowed
im wondering 2 lol
How do i get a Sherpa to help me learn the game. I'm a solo player, i've tried a few practice raids, but i don't feel confident enough on my own yet.
Confidence is something you gotta build over time and is not gonna come out of the blue. I would say the most important thing for confidence would be finding a playstyle that suits you.
Not allowed besides won't help much.
hey can someone drop me AR-15 HK E1 buttstock its peacekeeper lvl 4 and i have him at lvl 3 rn
Try #pvp-lfg
Can you send a link to the page?
why does blitz make it then? im talking like Flea prices and such
nothing crazy
that program is also known as ratscanner and isnt allowed
u gotta google the flea prices urself
(Plus that’s just more reliable anyways)
ah man
what do you mean by google? Is there a place on the web where they are listed?
Tarkov-market
I see
yeah what skunk said
is my spacebar bugged because in settings it says "press" but i only jump when i release the spacebar and sometimes it just doesnt jump at all and i have to spam it
default keybind is release, but if u changed that idk
vault also being bound to space might cause issues? im not sure
Vault is on V, and i dont think ive changed it from release to press, but it does say press in the settings? Visual bug maybe, change it and change it back maybe?
😭
are these keys worth keeping? i dont got my sights set on any maps besides gz right now for quests
i just witnessed teleportation in tarkov
and it lost on overweight amount of loot
like
identical people were at both ends of a flight of stairs in gz
on the bright side i got my first usec kill
even if it was level 3 with a toz and a tt with no armor...
Merin is worth saving to sell and to use for upcoming lighthouse quests.
For future reference, google key/item/etc + tarkov market to see the value.
Google key/item/etc + tarkov wiki for information
i just turned in a quest and thought prapor sent me a dc dm omg
ty tho i appreciate it
omg i just had the greatest run ever, albeit the most anxiety filled
so the stairwell with the barbed wire, i was on the ground floor enterance when i had gotten into a gunfight with a stacked level 2..like really stacked
my arm blacked out and i had 2 health on my thorax so i went to loot him to heal but was met with like 5 pairs of steps around the ground floor stairs entrance
i picked up his backpack after i dropped mine, found a car, used it, and killed just a terrible amount of scavs
in total i left with like 3 blacked limbs, a car, 3 bandages, 2 esmarchs, and a few cheeses used up with this as the round evaluation
Hey you on na servers?
whoever this level 2 is rocking a decked m4a1 with a huge rig, big backpack, and no helmet is awesome
was that you
Lmfao no
bcz yeah im in NA, in the west
Want to run a raid? Dm me
eh..im a solo, sry but ty for the offer ^^
Np good luck!
gl to you too <3
Bad example but you want to get runs like this (most recent pic I could find)
Forever ago lol but this wipe
Idek prob like 5m at this point? Idk
140m stash value nun crazy I don’t really focus on roubles
well ill look forward to getting runs like those when i have weapons shooting higher than 30 pen </3
awesome loot tho, defo looking forward to graduating from gz and simple kits to get bags like that
scav lighthouse, i can send u a guide
quick question tho, my stash is stuffed with low quality guns and i have hardly any space, +whatever is coming back to me through insurance. do i sell them all or do i try and use em?
i wanna get better pen weapons n such but klins and mosin infantrys dont really seem like they fit what im doing/aiming to do
Needing gear to get kills is a lie, it’ll help though end of the day just need to hit your shots
insure with therapist, use her insurance message as second stash. It stays there5 days!
a klin doesnt go through a high quality helmet very well last i checked...
well idk
i would be a leg muncher or something with it, but if i wanted to use a high rpm weapon id want to use something of better quality
(also because im tired of low quality equipment...
Ears or neck if you can’t get a clean face shot
whats ur lvl
like uh
6, and im not the greatest shot really
it also lags really bad when gunfights break out
how much money do you have?
Sheeeesh
?
i would sell everything and buy 2-3 standard kits that you get used to
AK-74U
or my favourite
UMP with lasermatch ammo
yes
ump seems like a good option, as far as im aware 45 in an smg is a good mix
eeheehee good info, but do you got one of those for a ump?
advantage of UMP is its high dmg bullets with ok pen (for lvl 1).
And low recoil
i almost bought 80 of those knives on accident..
born to tark, doomed to UMP
hey man
its a stepping stone that ill take after i lose this m4a1
eeeheeeheeee
i just unlocked the shooting range!!
is there a way to lower the lag creation of gunfights or more specifically shooting
what are your specs?
eugh.. you wont like them, but ill go get them
just know this pc is uhm
like 7 or so years old...
click on this follow instructions:
??pagefile
?
??pagefile
whats that do exactly?
so..it allows me to allocate more ram to a thing or does it actually give me like more ram?
it gives you slightly more performance
so i think my game data is stored on my c while the drive i actually download games on is on my d
which one do i give the boost to? (or does it apply to both and i havent read far enough or some other thing
Is tarkov installed on C or D?
definitely on my d drive (also i cannot figure out why my c drive is always so stuffed
then do the pagefile thing on D
if you wanna upgrade one day:
AMD CPU with x3D in the end
but at least
32 GB RAM would help greatly
easiest is to buy ram
one day
41 bucks is defo not enouugh to get 32gb right
ur US?
yeah
16 GB Ram costs 30$ on amazon
you need like add those 16 GB to your 16
But it also depends on what RAM you have and how much ur PC can take
If you have 4 slots in your PC and it has 2 RAM sticks
You buy exact same 2 and put them in
i think i see 2 sticks in this dusty old dog
but theres only 2 slots that i can see aswell.. both are occupied
ok
its not advised
fair enough..
possible but can cause problems
i dont wanna risk it
also what does the guide mean that it will decrease my ssd lifespan?
idk why im asking it literally means exactly what i just echoed lol
alrighty im gonna reset my pc for the thingy, ty for the help!!!!
<3
gl 🙂
its defo not a modern ssd...
ok i had like no lagspikes during a big shootout with like 5 scavs on factory
idk if thats usual but its a big shootout, and its also not gz so idk
id say this is a win for my aiming tho, but i bet i got carried by hip firing with a laser
Daamn u slaying with the UMP
its the laser trust
Screenshot your built if you want
yeah sadly
eugh.. wish that Rlcraft guy had a taller sight..
still a good kit i didnt have to pay all that much for
er
well no bnecause i pulled it from his corpse
but im super duper happy with it and it boosts my confidence, but im scared still bcz a player will react in like a third of the time a scav does (from what i saw
this should be a better sight
bit better:

oo much better actually ty
aa i think i ahd one of those sights on an ak i sold
you can always buy it from skier
i wasnt paying attention (but tbf i didnt use like any attachments
i did and im gonna use it sm
is it worth carrying a pistol?
like even a cheap glock
no
Not when you’re new. Maybe once you’ve played the game more it’ll come in handy
well i dont run out of ammo much during gunfights.. idk, what would the difference make when im not as new?
I’ve personally had plenty of situations where quick swapping to my sidearm gets me a kill instead of just reloading
Players and AI
But if you’re new, money tends to be an issue so spending the money on one usually isn’t worth it until you become self sufficient
(i have 860k and am not really struggling too much
All it takes is a bad streak dw
(ive actually been having one..
well no i had like
5 stockpiled kits that i got off corpses and scav runs
until i sold my last one+random guns to buy a better kit standard
idk, keeping a loaded tt with a spare mag of loose bullets doesnt cost all that much
also 5 mins till my shooting range is done!!!
is there a good guide in this server for background check? i hear getting the pocket watch for it actually sucks bcz your in the open
or is that midigated because im laterr in the wipe
No real guide other than don’t get shot. Hardest part would be getting the key from 3 story dorm and making it back to the truck, or just doing it in another raid
oh so its not optional to fuel the truck?
The objective is to get the key from dorms and unlock the truck to get the pocket watch. If you die you gotta do it again
o that makes more sense
no lagspikes when gz gunfights break out!!
ty alpha guy <333
found an exps!!
are shotguns worth using?
depends which shotgun and what map imo
anything that's not semi or the ks-23m throw it away
i completely fumbled because my gun stopped firing (Not empty)
wasnt a malfunction either
was it after a reload?
How do you get increased rep with the traders? I only know how to with fence
can you screenshot any trader quest - the lower part where rewards are listed
and post here?
I dont know where to see the rewards
i have this
another quest then
scroll all the way down
"Results"
screenshot another quest
you have to click "accept" top left
ok but is that just how i increase rep?
now pls do screenshot again
after hitting accept
Do you see "therapist +0.02"?
yeah
thats how much trader rep you get
yes
ok
but its not your only quest
accept all the other quests if you didn't already
nope, it was a fresh full mag
do you gotta switch to auto whenever a weapon has a single fire setting or does it come already on full autop
stg im pressing the fire button but nothing is happening
i just lost a fire kit to it
on top of that my selewa wont count as found in raid
i check my fire rate every 10 secs
compulsively
wanna be on full auto when the rats are firing at you
from around the corner
fair
if i put something in my pouch under a raid as PMC, does it then remove the found in raid checkmark?
Only if you died
guys tarkov schizophrenia update dropped
i was on the stairs in factory
and i shot a few times at a scav, missed, looked at how to change firemode, then when i unpaused he was just gone
no door sounds, didnt go downstairs because i checked far down there
no footsteps either, just vanished
but id say getting this off a single drum mag (for the most part) is pretty cool
Nikita kidnapped him
who?
All of us
nikita is the big boss
Big boss man
am i able to use reaction gifs here
i have a great one to convey how i feel right now
i dont wanna try because some servers give me a strike if i do
just search Nikita Buyanov on google and you'll know what we mean he's the head of bsg studio
ohhh that clears it up ty
What does this mean?
Raid timer
is that how long the raid lasts as a pmc?
Yes sir
But on interchange it says 35 mins and when i load into it as a pmc it says i have 40 mins left
Yeah its supposed to be accurate but it isn't
If you have access to co-op practice mode but your friend doesn’t can you still play it together or does both need to own it?
No both need to own it
coop practice mode?
Yeah
do you mean PVE?
No you can do oflline raid in coop mode
everyone has access to offline mode...
are lightbulbs craftable
How do you make money without getting gunned down doing key runs or stuff like that
ligthouse scav runs
i can link a guide
I wouldn’t do lighthouse at all, I’d do streets
Being gunned down in lighthouse is likely af with rogues
streets is valid, if you avoid rogues you will be fine on ligthouse
sometimes they are already dead
can you screenshot?
i can't rn
but i see even streamers or myself have the thing
where mags in their inventory just show as 7/30
Guide pls
is the task from Skier "The Higher They Fly" still need to kill 2 pmcs in same raid or it was changed to 2 kills on woods
check out tarkov wiki real quick
it has the most recent information about quests
tarkov wiki is always right
Just google tarkov wiki The Higher They Fly
Hey all, just coming back to the game after a really long break. missed all of ground zero coming out and have no idea how to get early tasks done/get started again. Have been watching videos and navigating the map, but would like some help figuring it out is possible 🙂
can you play on NA East and EU West
Yes, but I'm available in about 2 hours from now
no idea, what i will do in 2 hours
It’s a ? Mark not a 7
It's been a bit since I have been in this server so getting reacclimated to things. Have never used a sherpa because I knew all of the beginning pieces of the game
Yes it just means you have checked your mag and it has been shot
Havnt
Oh alr
I need your help getting my zabralo down to <75%. DM me if you got time to help a desperate solo gamer with no friends 🤡
Where do I find glukar on reserve
is there any way to easily learn extraction points
That’s literally the entire map lol
The trains area is the most common spawn right
And is the packet loss bug still there for bosses
best ref key for valuables? or what's the best way to convert lega to roubles
no
voron probably, u can buy item cases for 2 legas and sell them on flea
The grumpys hideout is really good bc it gives you high tier ammo and armor
u just gotta have a map on the side and play a while to learn them
available now. Can play NA servers
word ty lads
Does anyone know where metal fuel tanks spawn
mech crates have them quite often
What are those
big wooden ones that are all over woods
theres also med ones that look exactly the same
The only time I found one is on a scav
perhaps you just arent hitting the crates? I find tons of them
it might be a ?/30
from a picked up mag or used mag. then it also will show: ~full, 1/2 half these are to show aprox amount of rounds left.
you can. needs to be on release tho
It won’t let me change it? Like the G bind
It’s blacked out where I pick release/ press etc
it should work. go to practise mode and try it out
You hold G and scroll wheel up / down, correct?
helping new players
there are 7 bullets in the magazine out of 30
you can use map genie and filter to show crates
can you help me run beginner tasks?
Id also like to tag along for beginner tasks
Havent ever played ground zero before
helping new players
i can help in voice chat with explanations and guiding, cant play though
we can group up with afghan dad
looking for a vet trying to learn the map in pve and just chill and loot maybe make new friends
i just scored a w trade (not really like an actual trade but loss and gain were happening
1 box mag for ppsh lost, but 3 selewas gained, 2 fir!!!
💀
?
newer player here, i have a dogtag case full of dogtags. should i just be selling them?
hey my gadget doesnt work and i dont know why
im hitting the two gadget keys and it isnt doing anything
gadget activation is on press aswell
is it on night vision mode
newer player here, i have a dogtag case full of dogtags. should i just be selling them?
barters, sell, keep for trophies. whatever you like
no, save them for quests (there are some) and you can barter. You can also keep them for the trophy room to give you bonuses to skills
you won't get much by selling them anyway
is this worth saving for either flea market when i unlock it or quests?
really annoying to find for a very early quest
keep 3 of them
sanitary standards 1 and 2
^^
??event
Weekly rotational boss spawn increase - Each weekend, one of the bosses will have an increased spawn rate. This week is: Kaban!
is zb-14 the best way for the ice cream mags still?
Anyone tryna teach me labs?
you can also craft
Okay bet I have only found one in zb-14
My hideout is pretty bad so I doubt I can’t craft it yet but I’m about to look it up
lavatory level 2
I don’t even have it built yet lmao
I need to hunker down and go get some hideout items
Then either try zb-14 or if your duo or can do it alone try to kill a boss that has 60 rounders
Hi guys, I need to find topographic maps for my intelligence center, what map and location is more probable to find it?
Safes would be one of the best ways
Almost yes
i only find em on reserve for some reason (i only play that map)
what one should i do Big Customer/Out of Curiosity/Chemical Partrt 4
is anybody willing to run with me for a hours?
hey guys would i also ask questions about tarkov arena in here? Can the adar not use any attachments in tarkov arena while playing marksmen? cause for some reason i cannot change any of the parts even though i have some unlocked. thanks
it is a bug from the last update. i was able to build a kit with it prior to the update last week then after it was a no go
sad hopefully it gets patched soon
Yo i completed every single quest for networkprovider part 1 why havnt i got it ?
You sure you did everything?
yep
Do you have a +1 scav karma?
When did you finish the last quest for it?
like couple minutes ago
Not a 100% sure but I thought you need to wait 19 hours
Maybe someone here can confirm it or not?
you know any good places to find 3 cofdms ?
apart labs
Lighthouse
i have been going there only found 1 out of like 30 raids
Reserve d2 I found 2
Did you check all 21 spots in water treatment plant?
yea i check them everytime
What should I really be doing tasks tryna make money or just get pmc kills for guns/exp?
Find a good balance that works for you.
anyone know why my tarkov flea market is loading so slow and has delays and when I sell an item I gotta wait 5-10 seconds
questing is the main way to get xp, pvp is for money (or for quest)
like i did a 2 transit (Customs->Factory->Customs), 1 goon, 1 pmc, and all of Reshalas gang plus around 15 scav kills raid and it was like 38k xp
thats a mid level quest worth of xp where you need to pick up an item and extract
What happens if you upgrade to an edition of the game and your stash cant hold the extra content you are given?
you get the stuff in mail so you have time to make space, but it will disappear after the timer ends
But can you like take the items over time or do you have to take it all at once?
it works just like insurance or quest rewards, you can take parts of them and return later
Are you sure because earlier at a reward i got in mail it said i would not be able to undo it if i didnt accept all the items?
It always says that
So if you click ok do you not lose the items you didnt drag to your stash?
it should be fine, you just reopen the message
but to be sure, first make space for the secure container
thats the most important
You don't
Having fun in the most important but if you’re wanting to progress, tasks
other than knowing the exact spots off of memory is there anyway to know where my quest/task locations are cause I did my first task for prapor wit the ags grenade launcher machine gun etc, but I had to watch a video to find them
Tarkov wiki.
Just Google tarkov wiki quest name
so i have an issue with build creating and could find a vid abt it
i have this settings i have ll1 all traders and flea unlocked
so once i want to search and "paste" my build only this many items show up
and i need way more
you pretty much can't do crafting like that without workbench
and why on purschase all its like 300k ish
you have to purchase all manually and put them on the gun
i have workbench
can johnB glasses spawn on rogues, raiders or scavs? wiki says none of them
but i saved a build and no w want to paste it
shouldbnt i be able to buy things that i need by doing that?
could be none available too
oh so like theres no offers on flea?
or you already have the thing on the gun
it will only grab items you need in the search
ok
there are items that i need on flea
and look
before i press that items that i need are any and not form traders
items are here
ig i will just do it manually
but in future
it should show up everything for the build
right
it should
there is a bug with edit preset where it cannot buy some stuff
you have to buy it manually
it just simply cant find the item
also, if you build from preset, always buy the stock weapon manually, otherwise it will try to buy the stuff that comes with the stock weapon separately
what is the x17 reciever thing called that you need to well build the x17 762 gun?
its just called x-17, its a seperate gun u can buy stripped from mechanic
u just transfer all parts from mk17 onto the x17
yee thankyou, now i can use the broken mk17s from knight to make them fresh again tysm
also, is there any better supressor or so wich gives me more ergo and less recoil then the wave qd?
I think prs/qdc is the meta
oh true i could rock the long barrel too, and maybe i gotta compare qdc and wave since i want and like ergo
can someone explain how the flare extract works on customs? i shot my flare and started running and the sniper killed me but the extraction timer started
you need to wait 1 -2 seconds after you fire the flare. then you run.
okay thanks
Stay in the tracks. Right in the middle. Going left or right gets you shot
you shoot it up in the flare area and run in the center of the train tracks
i did
do i even bother with traders once i get the flee
yeah u get high tier shit from high tier traders
i mean once i hit lvl 15 where i p much jus have lvl 1 tr4aders
I mean some stuff is cheaper from them
If you filter by item it shows the cheapest price, including traders. Then you don’t have to check back and forth
what kits should i buy once i get the flee
What you mean?
like what gun builds/armor at lvl 15
Depends on your budget. You don t need to buy super good staff, because you will spend a quite a lot. As a weapon use 5.56 MDR, you just need a scope and handle or submachine gun like SR2M MCX, MPX. Armor just cheapest t4 Armor, choose one with less debuffs to your movement
Headphones GSH or M32, the cheapest ones. TBH you still have difference between every Headphone that you can meet in the game, but it is not that significant.
run sordins 👍
perfect what i needed to know ty
Arnt liberators better? And same price, or is there actually a difference
Nothing to talk about. It's somewhat individual.
Ima try the sordins then, havnt been impressed with liberators
sordin has goated sound profile
if u are looking for headset range then here
??headset
Thanks to gigabeef here is a mostly complete guide on general usefulness of a headset. Updated for Patch 16.5 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521620522304405504/1355716264831615128/image.png?ex=67e9f0a9&is=67e89f29&hm=ca04d8f6e8e8d465e80f690d68da9d407432d4aaeeb16299de56e414661b3aa3&
can somebody explain to me how the skill based matchmaking is for ground zero? heard it's diff from others and stuff like something abt level 20? idk
Think there are 2 different GZ's. One for players under 20 one for players 21 and over.
ohh ok thanks
so since i'm level 6, i'll only queue with players under 20? and if i queue with somebody who is for example level 30, i'll queue in lobbies for 21 and over?
That is indeed my understanding. Admittedly I'm a PvE player myself. But I'm pretty sure you're correct here.
ok ty
Yes you are correct
Hi, I’m unable to install/start the game due to the “download compromised, installation repair needed” issue. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled and moved the download location and I’m still not able to start the game. Is there any fix for this?
It keeps getting to 75% validating files, then crashes and gives this bug, then infinitely is stuck at 0%
cant decide wich map to hit for the elite plyers and xeno foam in one raid tho welp
customs!
Reserve
cages?
wich chategory?
loot, pvp or how the map plays?
lab prolly
labs layout good
customs is fine too
loot must be streets or labs, pvp is ether labs or reserve basement or dorms and map is ether reserve or labs
and then there are lighthouse and shoreline wich i dont visit if i dont have to
no one does
even tho the "pvp" on lighthouse is simple
and shoreline resort gaming is also fun
but thats it
ic
woods and GZ
quick question when do i get any peacekeeper quests??
Setup tips? 😦
1/8 so far and it was with the single shot sniper but it was kinda luck. Hard to find people to snipe, and can’t kill anyone at close range with flechette
Im Doing Set Up Atm Im Using All MP Series To Test Them Out I Never Use Shotgun But The MP-43-1C Is Beast Close Range In Dorms! But Fr You Can Use Any. Load It Up With Sum .50 BMG Or Flechette. I Mix & Do 1 BMG Slug For Distance The Next Slug To Pepper The Meat. I Shot PMC Even One To Chest Smoked & He Had Lvl 4 Chest Plate So Try .50
Do Night Time Raids & Push Dorms Sit Prone Behind A Door & Blast They Legs Off 😂
Can Craft The Slugs Also, Not Sure Which Lvl Workbench U Need Tho
or u could just use mp153 with flechettes for close and mp18 with a razor for long range
Ye You Can Also Use Those Too! For Quick But Powerful Stopping Power When You Need To Reload The SawedOff Shotgun Comes Thru Clutch & Also Counts For MP Shotgun Kills
What do you guys think about using the saiga for it? I tried but it didnt do it for me
I was confused by it. Do you have a reason for it
its so hard to look at 😄
Has To Be MP Series Saiga's Dont Count But If Not Doing Setup Those Are Beast Against PMC & Raiders
Yeah right
? all you need is an 8 round mag and flechette, HEADSHOTS
Its always better to have the 8 rounder incase you need it
lol scope worth more then both guns
