[gusty temple]

Hey guys, with an ak74u-s and shitty level 1 trader ammo, should I be aiming for head eyes or legs?

I've found that aiming for head-eyes rarely works for me (I think because I end up hitting the armoured thorax or the helmet), but wondering if this is a skill issue and I should keep practising or if it's just more consistent to go for legs

[fallen swallow]

Depends on what ammo you take

[gusty temple]

I think I only have low pen stuff from the level 1 traders

[little agate]

High pen, aim body/ head, low pen go for legs, preferably if low pen look for something with a good bleed chance along with damage

[gusty temple]

Would it be worth swapping the ak74u to something else if I only have low pen?

[little agate]

If you only have low pen your just bet is just going to be shooting legs, what I’d recommend is run something like the kedr or ppsh, both are cheap and great for legging, while you build up ammo reserves for the ak

[gusty temple]

Ok makes sense, thanks guys 🙂

[fallen swallow]

easiest way to do this one?

was thinking mosin with scope and just pray

[scenic lake]

go with armor
see scav
take off armor
shoot scav
equip armor
profit

[fallen swallow]

thats..... genious, and i should have thought of that

[scenic lake]

and mosin with scope is a good idea

[fallen swallow]

cheap and effective ish

[scenic lake]

having good range and being able to shoot a scav before he sees you really improves your chances

[fallen swallow]

im more worried about PMCs than scavs

[scenic lake]

same goes with pmc's

if they dont know you exist, they cant fight back

its quite shrimple realy

[fallen swallow]

Yeah fair

But most people use ranged weapons on woods

[scenic lake]

well, it is a very open map

there isnt really any cqb on woods

[fallen swallow]

Yeh

We'll see how it goes after my scav run

I hear people fighting boss man

[ocean walrus]

Is it common for Tarkov to die mid-raid?

just alt-f4 itself for no reason

[slow wing]

going into customs with just a pistol and one mag, will i be tagged an cursed?

[slow wing]

yes extremely

[ocean walrus]

gg

[slow wing]

its crashed randomly for years

[ocean walrus]

Game altf4d itself 9 min before raid ended

And its been loading me in for the past 5

:)

[slow wing]

you can join back if your not dead and can load fast enough

what map

[ocean walrus]

Customs

Praying someone opened fort exit or im MIA

[slow wing]

where were you when you dc and whats your extract

[ivory nacelle]

What is the cult circle and what do I do with it?

[slow wing]

sacrifice

[ocean walrus]

Fort, Crossroads and Trailer Park

I dcd next to fort

[slow wing]

you can probably make trailer park

[hidden seal]

Lol with my speed I open inventory to drop armor when I close inventory I am not seeing the scav anymore 😛

[slow wing]

you might have to drop your backpack if your heavy tho

[slow wing]

real chads go into the raid without armour for this task

[ocean walrus]

Nit with 30 sec left haha

[slow wing]

yea your screwed

[ocean walrus]

ggs

arguably nothing worthwhile

[muted eagle]

nah thatsd good

[potent fractal]

hi im a relatively new player and i see blitz do a overlay that shows u the value of items is this bannable im a bit reluctant to use it as i have eod but it would be really helpful has anyone been using it or anyone have any info on it. I have used blitz for other games but was a bit jubious of this one

[slow wing]

put figurine and something else in secure

[ocean walrus]

raid already ended when I was sending

[muted eagle]

grizzly worth more and they need heals fr

[ocean walrus]

Now it fucking closed again

error 1000 wrong encryption params

[peak cobalt]

Hello everybody

I decided I would ask the question here: how the hell do I complete 'Gunsmith - Part 2'

[scenic lake]

wdym?

just check wiki

and do it as it says

[muted eagle]

you're good, will not be banned

[peak cobalt]

More in the sense of, "where do I get my filthy hands on a 60 rounder"

[scenic lake]

you can try to kill bosses that spawn with them

[muted eagle]

you either make them in lab level 2 or find them in part spawns

[scenic lake]

or craft them in your hideout

[ivory nacelle]

What is the overlay called?

[muted eagle]

blitz

[peak cobalt]

Ohhh ok, gotcha

[scenic lake]

you sure?

[muted eagle]

yes

[unborn remnant]

any other newish players on

had the game for years but just now getting into it again still less than couple hundred hours

[ocean walrus]

Elaborate on newish

[potent fractal]

do you use it ?

[muted eagle]

no

[ocean walrus]

Well, back to looking for Lv4+ plates in raid

[unborn remnant]

like i can play and im decent but only level 7 cause i dont got much time due to work

[scenic lake]

i am pretty damn sure you can get banned for it, after a quick google search it said that its in a grey area

so it is risky

[muted eagle]

not really, i know people who have used it for years and are okay

[scenic lake]

dosent change the fact that you can get banned

[peak cobalt]

I'm looking to play, have had half a wipe of experience so far... owned the game for like 3-4 years but I never bothered to actually play until 1.0 wipe

[muted eagle]

if you can find one playerr who has been banned off using blitz ill send you 100$

[peak cobalt]

What?

[unborn remnant]

same boat here got like 70 hours total

i’ll be on in a bit running raids

getting some side tasks done

[scenic lake]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Tarkov/comments/1o7ppkg/tarkov_ban_for_using_blitzgg_overlay/

[unborn remnant]

found my first ever labs card so might do that

[potent fractal]

ye but it is guy on reddit probably had radar and doesnt wanna admit it

[scenic lake]

xD

[muted eagle]

"Blitz Customer Support responded to me on reddit saying they verified their app with BSG and it wouldn't result in a ban"

[ocean walrus]

I can extract right after dropping in as scav and loot will count as normal?

[silk heart]

yeah

[opaque void]

lvl 5 need help extracting from woods and maybe killing a scav or two

[ocean walrus]

Great

[scenic lake]

he got banned a week after installing blitz after playing for a long time

[potent fractal]

it says fraud probably was dropping kits or something and they thought he was rmting

[peak cobalt]

Blitz shouldn't be bannable, I used it for League a long time as well... why would it be? It basically presents you with information that you already could have known through experience beforehand (unless we are talking flea prices and not trader prices).

[muted eagle]

literally means nothing

[potent fractal]

i can literally get the info on a website it just makes life easier

[scenic lake]

wdym

[potent fractal]

also battle eye can literally see blitz u aint hiding it if it was for that u would be banned as soon as u launched the game

[peak cobalt]

True... so why would it ban him only a WEEK after?

[opaque void]

can anyone help a lvl 5 brotha survive woods lol

[scenic lake]

beacuse anticheats are stupid?

it is really not likely to get banned as soon as you cheat

[arctic whale]

do i give the info on ref to ref or to fence

[tiny orbit]

Things get banned in waves so cheatmakers dont see what triggered the bans

[peak cobalt]

Well yeah obv but they usually don't take that long. Took me a day to get banned from MW3, for instance. (it was a server tool with which to ban hackers from the network but treyarch didn't like it 🙁 )

[scenic lake]

they easlly can take that long

[peak cobalt]

Yeah I forgot about that

[peak cobalt]

Already have a map open?

[muted eagle]

whoever you want the rep for

[peak cobalt]

I can't run Labs... don't have the experience (or the keycards, for that matter)

??sherpa

[red thistle]

Sherpas are players who help beginners study the main game features and improve their skills to survive the harsh Tarkov environment. This difficult and honorable task falls on the shoulders of the most friendly, patient, and, of course, experienced Tarkov citizens.

Sherpas are volunteers who dedicate their time not only by teaching others but also studying Tarkov themselves, adding to their knowledge of the game. Selfless aid to new players greatly contributes to the growth of the Escape from Tarkov community.
When teaching beginners, Sherpas rely on their preferences in the game: location, weapons, equipment, tactical moves, and their unique gaming experience.

u have 2 queues on GZ

under 21 u get paired with ppl also under 21 and 21+ u can figure out urself
if ur in a group and any of u are 21+ u get put in the high queue (majority doesnt matter, highest lvl does)
only GZ has this tho, all other maps have a single queue

do people really prefer less frames but playing in higher rez? idk id prefer 1080p 240hz than 2k or 4k 60hz

[cloud basin]

higher fps is always better but once u get a monitor u play native

i aint playing 1080p on a 1440p monitor

and i aint buying a 1080p monitor for a 4080 super

[tiny orbit]

60hZ IS TOO LOW

[finite sail]

idk if i had a 4080 i aint buying a 2k monitor, 1k is fine

there's isnt that much difference from 1k to 2k to my eyes at least, everyone is different

[tiny orbit]

1080p is too low in 2025

[finite sail]

no its perf fine

[cloud basin]

having 60 browser tabs prob aint helping either

[tiny orbit]

Disagree. Low fov low res

[finite sail]

disagree to your disagreement lmao

its ok we all have our setup that we like

[cloud basin]

1080p to 1440p difference is big
1440p to 4k not so much

[tiny orbit]

Yeah. The freaks even do stretch res. Thats like 720p low fov

[finite sail]

noot that much, ive played on both and i dont really see the difference unless i put my head on the screen and look at each pixel

i dont stoop that low lmao

meh i dont like the g28 that much but its a nice one

[dapper epoch]

The one g28 gives enough for 14 hours?

I dont either I take the scope off to save for test drive 1 and sell the rest

[cloud basin]

gives enough for 6hr if afaik

[cloud basin]

WAIT THATS THE SCOPE FOR IT

[dapper epoch]

Yes lol

[finite sail]

i usually buy it from flea with a ring mount, its around the same price if not 15k more

[dapper epoch]

Theyre scalping the fuck out of them for me

People are just taking them straight off the g28

Ill not have to worry about that crap whenever I decide to do test drive

[cloud basin]

why even have that many

just put a backup sight on the gun and the 1-8x up ur ass

and swap them when u need to

Too much effort id rather just run it

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

personally im not checking it tho (not beforehand atleast)
dont wanna spoil it

[safe shale]

I just needed to make sure I’m going in the correct direction

[tiny orbit]

There are different endings. Some will have you have to farm for hundreds of hours. Others let you escape quick

[safe shale]

What is the quicker way?

[tiny orbit]

Dunno. Not doing story stuff so have not checked

[cloud basin]

whatever tigz did is fastest i assume

since he was the first to escape

[dapper epoch]

|| Give the case to Prapor, and youll get the line to pay him 500m ||

Its not a good ending tho so its up to you

[tiny orbit]

Are there 1 achievement per?

[dapper epoch]

Yea

And the different paths have achievements tied to them

[finite sail]

not a good ending gameplay wise or just story wise?

[dapper epoch]

I mean neither honestly. Just gathering all that money is fuckin boring

[finite sail]

oh i thought some endings have a effect on gameplay after doing one

[dapper epoch]

Not that I know of

[tiny orbit]

Dont see how it could

[finite sail]

idk i was just curious

[tiny orbit]

Just doing the quickest one first makes most sense if you are going to prestige

[dapper epoch]

Im doing the most involved one

The best ending

i might do the harder one too since i dont plan on doing prestige

[boreal flax]

what happens if you kill sanitar in colleagues part 3

[small plume]

you fail the task and complete a different one instead

check the wiki to compare the rewards and see which one you'd rather have. colleagues part 3 gives a black keycard and some other stuff

[boreal flax]

sanitar drops stims right? can i kill him before accepting the quest and get stims for samples?

[small plume]

yes

[jolly plover]

whaTS a good shotgun i can buy? want to try em? and what ammo???

[low python]

Honest answer. None of the shotguns in Tarkov are good. It's just a balancing thing. Part of what makes set up so annoying and why we all pretty much use the mp-18 break action. Throw a variable scope on it and it counts.

[dire monolith]

The shotguns are all pretty much the same, the mp155 if you can buy it is fully auto so I’d use that. As for ammo the best you probably can’t buy, I’d say use 6.5 express buckshot and aim at legs of people.

The best ammo that you might have from a quest would be magnum buckshot (aim for legs or face), or flechette (penetrates all armor, aim anywhere)

But the problem is you can’t buy any good ammo low level

[dapper epoch]

Holy fucking hell this might have been my best raid yet

[muted eagle]

nice good one

[dusk oxide]

will there still be wipes?

for my current character?

No

some guy said nikita had mensioned there would be wipes

[tiny orbit]

Yeah, on the seasonal character that come later

[dusk oxide]

oh ok

[finite sail]

do we know what kind of effects the seasons will have? like boosted xp or something?

[tiny orbit]

My personal guess is no story missions. More like oldschool wipes

[finite sail]

that would be nice, straight loot and fights

or stuff like you gotta buy the rep instead of doing tasks

[vast sentinel]

Hey, I wanted to ask if you guys have any advice on tracking items? I am finding myself lacking hideout space because I am stashing much more crafting items than I actually need.

I am mainly talking about hideout items, its not as important to track quest items for me.
The built in wishlist feature is pretty terrible as it does not allow you to set a number on your wishlisted items, nor does it allow you to remove wishlisted items if they are in the hideout category. Which is crazy to me.

I know there are a few online item trackers but a lot of them are outdated, or clunky or require a subscription.

So what do you guys recommend for tracking items?

[frigid bear]

hey guys, is it normal if I cant chose which limb to heal in arena? in tarkov I just have to continue presssing 4, but it doesnt work in arena ?

[young ledge]

@dapper epoch@vast sentinel Do not discuss websites that violate the TOS

[dapper epoch]

Since when do either of those violate tos??

[young ledge]

Since one of them datamines

[dapper epoch]

lmao bruh

Ok

So is Nikita gonna go after the every single youtuber/streamer who recommends that aswell?

[compact wind]

there used to be a google doc you could use. havent seen it in a while. check around and im sure you will find one.

[vast sentinel]

well, the suggested websites dont solve my issue so my question still stands if anyone wants to chip in.

[young ledge]

Take what I told you and move on. Tarkov TOS applies to the discord server

[dapper epoch]

I hear you my friend but I am gonna call out the stupidity of that statement and thats within my right

[jolly plover]

need some help, i dont know whats the point of wearing armor when everyone, like literally everyone, 1shots me, like always

[vast sentinel]

well, people have good ammo now so theres really not much you can do. Low tier armor still helps against scavs but youre basically a free kill for most decent players that started at the beginning of the wipe, Id recommend avoiding combat if you cant keep up in progression with the gigachads

[ruby siren]

i just got the game any na server people willing to hop on and run some raids help get some quests done and help me get some good player kills

hi, i have an issue where the graphical problems from ai upscaling/ frame generation is present even though i have turned all related settings off. mainly some ghosting and massive pixelation on damage taken events. please advise as to how i may fix this

[silent berry]

Any tips how to level up the traders from level 1 to level 2 fastest?
I only need spend money 😄

[frank junco]

buy some of there stock and sell it back to them, youll lose some money but thats the fastest way

[fathom bough]

idk am just kinda doing quest and wich ever one i get thats

[silent berry]

Thank you, so just buy the most expensive stuff and sell it back to him basically?

[frank junco]

ya like for jaeger i always just buy like 10 guns at a time to resell to him

[silent berry]

Thank you

[frank junco]

selling items counts as money spent btw

[hollow pawn]

How do I know if while scavving a scav is a good one or one that will shoot? I had a grey scav shoot at me in Factory without hostile actions (in PvE)

[fierce arrow]

wait till someone shoots you, then kill

as a scav, you need to take that risk

[hollow pawn]

yeah was going for that strategy but i got shot and died 🙂

[fierce arrow]

in pvp I saw a scav killing scav, so I killed him and then other guy inside the building next to me started shooting, so i killed him too xd

+0.15 fence rep

[gilded dome]

Anyone trying to give me 5 pmc dogtags

[hasty falcon]

guys

how to finish the ensure access to ... quests

like i need to ensure access to reserve and lighthouse and lab

do i need to continue the others quests to unlock these location or ?

[fierce arrow]

you mean you can't go straight onto lighthouse, reserve etc?

lighthouse is locked behind 20k$ that you need to give to mechanic

and if you want to access Labs, you need a keycard (white one) and access the labs through transit (probably best one is on Factory, in the sewer)

[lethal scarab]

guys for my next main tasks on tour i have to get 3 kills on woods and acess secret terra group facility to get the next map unlocked do i have to go to the terragrou facioality or acani just get the 3 kills on woods?

[sullen sundial]

Any sherpas willing to help new player learn some maps(Ground Zero, Customs, Interchange, Streets)? 🙏🏼 I struggle finding extracts lol

[crimson badger]

What’s a good 400k cultist circle recipe for lvl 1 traders?

[dapper epoch]

5 mp5's from PK

[fierce arrow]

@sullen sundial im not a sherpa, but extracts on GZ, Customs and Interchange are one of the best ones to learn at first. Interchange exits are mostly on the opposite side of the map

[gilded dome]

Best map for killing scavs?

[sullen sundial]

Thank you! I’ve found a few on that map that I know of. I try having an interactive map pulled up while playing but honestly that just gets me more disoriented lol

[fierce arrow]

those maps have problems with scale, all you need to look for are the markers in-game like... IDEA, OLI etc

and this map I've sent you isn't updated, they added a "scav camp" thing, it's literally here (and on "X" is flare exit somewhere)

[sullen sundial]

Appreciate the help! I’ll check it out

[royal monolith]

for chemical part 4, who should i give the mission to? skier, prapor or therapist

[fierce arrow]

Skier vs Therapist vs Prapor

[ivory nacelle]

Do the PMCs in PvE get harder the more you level up, or is there no kind of scaling?

[compact wind]

not really a scaling. just dont peek the same corner more than twice. they will laser you

[alpine umbra]

sooo, i just began on the game, and i dont really now anything tbh, and i cant seem to find someone that could help me, so is there anyone that could help me learn the basics?

[glad prawn]

加入 Sherpa Hub 的 Discord 服务器，然后在里面提问，会有很多很酷的人愿意帮忙。

[grizzled breach]

anybody wanna play, i could use some help as i have no idea what im doing

[hidden seal]

repair it maybe

[hidden seal]

not hard to do in labs

[jolly plover]

ITS FOR SCAV

ups, block mayus

[hidden seal]

do nto think you need to run it as a scav

[jolly plover]

yep, it said scav, i just changued it for one that was exxtractign with 140ammo

im just running scavs rn, im sick of getting 1shotted even with tier 4 and a face cover

[sharp plume]

when the snow coming

[hidden seal]

you will be sneaking in middle of field.. perfectly blended.. then next secodn all will be white. The game is awaiting the maximum annoyance moment for that

[ivory nacelle]

Why does my secure case disappear when I load into a raid in pve?

[hidden seal]

you loading as scav?

[sharp plume]

😟

[ivory nacelle]

No PMC

[vague orchid]

glukhar is fucking annoying to fuck.

[ivory nacelle]

it also got rid of my special equipment

[hidden seal]

LOl this game bolts are as expensive as rifles

[hidden seal]

mm strange.. did you remove it from the character at any moment?

[ivory nacelle]

nope

i cant even assign stuff to hotbar in raid

[hidden seal]

IN PVP it works ?

[ivory nacelle]

yes

[sharp plume]

its a sign to play pvp

[compact wind]

might need to alt f4

[undone drum]

Focus on working on your mistakes and play unpredictably

[silk garnet]

More unoredictably?

i was behind a door for 20 min

[undone drum]

On what map?

[silk garnet]

Customs

[undone drum]

Remember that sitting behind this door for 20 min doesn´t guarantee safety

[silk garnet]

What do i mean?

[candid mason]

at what minute does the reserve train come?

around 10-15 min right?

[tepid plover]

does scav rep even matter if i dont really care about scavving that much

[candid mason]

whenever you get into minus you get a quest form fence i think that sets you to 0

double check it but I dont think it matters @tepid plover

[tepid plover]

it gives +1 only

[candid mason]

its mostly better geared scavs/lower cooldown/better intereaction with bosses

ye well +1 is pretty high

[tepid plover]

dont really care about any of that lol

i scav like once a day

[candid mason]

well there you have your answer 😄

youre too chad to scav

[smoky halo]

is there a server or a channel for COMPLETE beginners? Literally know nothing about the game and would like to find someone? or something? to make the learning process easier

[warped anchor]

What is moonshine for?

[compact wind]

multiple barters, the big one being thicc case

[solid lion]

at 6 rep, Fence starts selling you his high tier loot

[warped anchor]

Oh isn’t it like 10x or 50x of multiple items?

[unborn spindle]

yh

[compact wind]

this one, and beginners chat underneath. and there is a pvp-lfg and a pve-lfg lower down for grouping up.

[tepid plover]

anything worth getting there?

[unreal socket]

what about this is wrong for gunsmith part 8

[silk garnet]

How can players lvl 14 even play when players with lvl 41 are in the lobby tell me?

[unborn spindle]

i started mid wipe on my 1st proper wipe

litch nothing wrong

the game starts getting shit when u cater too much to casuals

as well as this

ur gna get even longer q times

by splitting playerbase even more

every game

[silk garnet]

IIt's like having Cristiano Ronaldo playing against 10 year olds doesn't make sense

[unborn spindle]

how u gna learn

ur litch asking for them to make it 'easy'

[jolly plover]

Which lvl do i need for normal keys in flea??? Not marked ones, want a blue one

[unborn spindle]

if u cant handle it pve

[unborn spindle]

should be 20 or 25

[silk garnet]

Not easy

Leveled its what i want

wtf its not hard to understand

Ground zero

[unborn spindle]

yeah when u kill someone it isnt rewarding lol

[silk garnet]

The map is for 21 down

And its 21 up

[solid lion]

Ground Zero is rat capital

[unborn spindle]

imagine if the cap is for all maps

[silk garnet]

When i go kill a guy lvl 41 with flea market open?

When do i say all masp??

like 2 maps

[unborn spindle]

wats the 2nd map @silk garnet

[silk garnet]

For people who dont have flea market

It makes sense to me

[unborn spindle]

ur nerfing urself because they make loot worse for the maps that have level splits

[silk garnet]

Im nerfing myself playing vs people lvl 41 with 7800 hours

Thats what it is

[unborn spindle]

skill issue lol

[silk garnet]

Yeah ofc it is

[unborn spindle]

learn and try to improve

[unreal socket]

tarkov in a nutshell

[silk garnet]

They can buy whatever they want

I can buy from the traders

[unborn spindle]

lmfao

i promise u

[silk garnet]

Ur brain is not working

I promisse u

[unreal socket]

even in pve having the flea is important

[unborn spindle]

the gun dont matter 90% of the time lmfao

[silk garnet]

Yea

[unborn spindle]

its the bullets and ur hitting ur shots

[silk garnet]

its the bullets

so

[unborn spindle]

yeah and to get good bullets u gotta find them

[silk garnet]

ur agreeing with me

[unreal socket]

wrong you do need good guns sometimes, having a gun with theSHITTIEST recoil isnt rlly gonna win you many fights

[silk garnet]

He cannot understand

[unborn spindle]

just dont use that ass of a gun lol

[silk garnet]

its like put usain bolt vs 3 disabled

[unborn spindle]

all im saying is

its not impossible

harder? yes

[silk garnet]

1/10 Its possible

[unborn spindle]

but its so much better when u kill someone whos kitted

[unborn spindle]

ur just dog if its 1/10 lmfao

i kill level 40s as a scav lol

[silk garnet]

Uau

how many hours u have in this game?

[solid lion]

if I can kill Killa and Tagilla with a basic m4 using m855a1 I found in a raid, you can kill lvl 47 players

[unborn spindle]

i just hit 1k this wipe. when i played my 1st proper wipe it right before hardcore

[silk garnet]

All time brother

[unborn spindle]

how many hrs u got

[solid lion]

stop crying and spend that time to get better

[silk garnet]

200

[unborn spindle]

i played my 1st proper wipe in feb and had around 300 hours even tho i knew nothing so ihad to relearn

and still the same situation

[silk garnet]

Yeah

ur the genius

[unborn spindle]

u got too many hours complaining in cord

[restive creek]

a dead scav had this in his pocket, what is it????

[silk garnet]

Why does England lack intelligent people nowadays?

[unborn spindle]

[true coral]

[ocean walrus]

How do I go about the 'Kill X' boss quest, take some budget items and race to one of his spawnpoints?

[short bay]

'literally on this discord

[ruby siren]

#pvp-lfg #pve-lfg depending on which one you play also you can ask around a bit in beginners assistance but youll have better luck in the channels

[prisma orbit]

Thanks, i have only done PVe before

[prisma orbit]

Thanks

[ruby siren]

yeah btw if you try pvp get ready for dissapointment that is pretty much the deffinition of tarkov pvp why pve is so popular is because a lot of the playerbase is ass at pvp

[prisma orbit]

A lot of people told me that, i will rather stick to PVe for a while

[ruby siren]

yeah i would train your aim also on pvp you will need to check every corner not just scavs players with crazy aim

[prisma orbit]

ah okay

[ruby siren]

also how many hours you currently got

[prisma orbit]

Maybe 10 hours

[short bay]

it has a very steep learning curve yeah. But at all levels of play, map knowledge is key mostly. You need to know the spawns, the hot spots, how players will move etc. Ground Zero is best at teaching that, map was made for PVP BUT it can be avoided if you know how.

[ruby siren]

it will take about 1000 hours to get sittuated

[prisma orbit]

damn

[short bay]

it varies heavily on the player and how the time spent playing is done. People that "just want to go and shoot people" will be demolished.

[ruby siren]

no dip just practice angles

[peak rose]

yo guys is my scav rep just actual dogshit or is this a glitch

[short bay]

open traders and see whats the rep with fence

[peak rose]

-0.2

[short bay]

its bad but not super bad

[peak rose]

but no gun is wild

[short bay]

it is

[peak rose]

biggest zero to hero incoming

[short bay]

eh just go factory and find the first corpse

[oblique rune]

CAN SOMEONE help me out with 206 and pocketweatch pls

[short bay]

for pocketwatch, get the machinery keys with a scav so you avoid dorms completely, put machinery in your safe container

aquarius 206, just wait it out and enter through the back side (broken window with trash bags you can climb on)

[manic sable]

just become a pvp chad and kill everyone

best tactic

[slate ridge]

^

[ruby siren]

that takes like a 1000-3000 hours to actually become good and this is new players bro probably at max has like 250 hours if hes been grinding

[manic sable]

i have like 600 hours at most and i can beat many of the people i fight if its actually a fight and not just someone sitting in a corner

[naive igloo]

biggest lie told in tarkov is that you need a bunch of hours to be good

what you need is to practice arena, 40 hours in arena and 250 main game and you can kill anybody if you are decent at fps

[manic sable]

arena is so ass

made me worse at the game

movement is completely different

[naive igloo]

yes it's super ass but if you care about getting good then it's the best way to learn mechanics

now it is but it's the same shit in the main game you just can't strafe spam like in arena

[manic sable]

strafing is the most annoying shit in arena

mf's just go from one side of the map to the other while shooting at you its so stupid

[naive igloo]

i really don't mind it like most people, just practice your tracking

[unborn spindle]

Arena is aim and shoot

Doesnt help wuth anything else

It would give u bad habbits

[naive igloo]

that's what i mean by mechanics

[unborn spindle]

As it has no ineria

If u need to aim training u'd be better off doing aimlabs

Or just playing the game

[naive igloo]

no you are not better off in aimlabs or just playing the game

[granite apex]

LF duo or trio, just got back into tarkov know my way around most maps not all, trying to learn more im level 22 dm me

[naive igloo]

i'm speaking from the perspective of someone that is fairly new and got better with arena

[unborn spindle]

Each to their own. Alot of people r gna try do what they do in arena in normal eft and find out quickly that u cant

[naive igloo]

you can run the real game but going in arena and getting 40-50 fights with the actual guns and recoil and shit is way better than going into raids as a noob and risking your gear getting max 4-10 fights a raid

[naive igloo]

why would anybody do that? lmao

it's just to practice aiming against real players even if the movement is different it's still beneficial

[unborn spindle]

Bro just ignored the fact that alot people wont know the movement is drastically different

Or realise

[ruby siren]

what about broke people who decided "hey im gonna drop a hundred bucks on this special edition" not everyone wants to get arena

[naive igloo]

i mean it'll take you exactly one raid to realize the movement is slightly different in real game

[naive igloo]

well this doesn't apply to those people lol

[ruby siren]

(this applys to a lot of people a lot of people heard it came to steam and bought the better version that is more expensive)

[naive igloo]

i deadass don't even know what you're trying to say

if you have arena use it to practice if not then idk man save up and get the better edition if you really care about getting better

[ruby siren]

im saying when tarkov came to steam a lot of people also arena isnt really that good tarkov is much better than just arena which in my opionon is a lot worse

[worldly igloo]

ive had that a few times, just really bad luck

can happen at any rep

[vagrant vortex]

[manic sable]

||yes, i believe instead of working with prapor you work with kerman or something like that. Im not too sure||

[versed meteor]

thanks

[limber trail]

are they not literally the same?

what am i looking for

[manic sable]

try hovering over this

if it doesnt tell you what it has added idk how to find out

[limber trail]

they both say the same things, idk

must not be a huge difference then

tthanks for the help tho

[versed meteor]

dumb question if i use a stim with like +30 health will that raise my health skill or do i need to be shot first while on the stim in order to make it work?

[limber trail]

gonna get head eyes wearing either of them lmao

getting shot raises your vitality skill im not sure what raises health

maybe just healing?

[manic sable]

oh yeah im pretty sure you just cant see what is enhanced when its a soft armor piece lmao

so stupid

[limber trail]

that is a little stupid, so what is an enhancement

like a higher chance to bounce a round or what

[manic sable]

im not sure if every type of armor has the same enhancements that can be applied but this for heavy vests apparently for example

[limber trail]

i see, interesting

thanks !

[torn rapids]

therapist

she will give you an injector case

[proud dew]

Ok thanks what would the others give if you dont mind me asking

[torn rapids]

prapor gives you a grenade case and i forget what skier gives you

but the most important thing is the follow up quest

to get the rep back from prapor, you need to give him 10 m67 grenades Which you can (eventually) buy on flea

and for skier you need to give him a million

[proud dew]

Ok thanks

[torn rapids]

therapist needs you to give her a bunch of keys but I'm not sure if how early you can buy them on flea

but the injector case is the best! you can put it in your secure container

[proud dew]

Ok thank you for your help I appreciate it!

[lofty folio]

Adrian i can help at some point tonight

[lofty folio]

Above sawmill

[opal dawn]

past snipers rock?

i ran all around it but couldnt find it at all

[lofty folio]

yeah if your at sawmill follow the road to the right of snipers rock going up , and the camp will be on your left from the road maybe 200m down the road

[opal dawn]

preciate it, ima take a look next time i play

[viral cloud]

Any idea how to complete that early custom dorms missions, 24 raids 24th time dead here.... GG 😄

[lofty folio]

play for the 30 minute raid not the 10 minute raid

[viral cloud]

So you would wait somewhere and go there later in the raid ?

[lofty folio]

yes for that specifically that is your best bet if you want to avoid pvp and get quests done

loot unpopular places or chill around

[viral cloud]

Ok, cause customs seems to be my nemesis, i do not have much problems on Inters or Woods but freaking custom and starting quests for prapor, skier and therpist are no completable for me still

[vague orchid]

Just to confirm factory is the best map to farm out a Makarov on correct? I need one FIR for a quest

[viral cloud]

@vague orchid I got lot of them on customs

inters/

[lofty folio]

thats a typical new player experience its all good, even for exp players you get unlucky on dorms often too
hot spot , close quarters, boss and guards all on top of eachother etc

if you need a hand i could help you out with it

[viral cloud]

I will try it, otherwise i would not get much better, last time i was going on exit and got headeyed by reshala guard xdd

[vague orchid]

Where would I find em on customs? Scavs? There's not a whole lot of pistol spawns there

[viral cloud]

On customs i got them a lot in the warehouse area from scavs, on inters in that camp in woods

[lofty folio]

yess for sure

[vague orchid]

Okay so basically I'm just farming scavs

[viral cloud]

Yeah or that camp on inters, lot of spawns here imho

[tepid cypress]

what do I do with gp I found 2 and I cant sell it

[viral cloud]

Ref is using them as payment method after u unlock him i think

but i am not sure

[tepid cypress]

if ur a low level and dont have traders high lvl how are you supposed to get decent ammo do I just have to wait like a month until I get my traders up lmao

[viral cloud]

Loot from ammo boxes, later with better traders or for example sometimes overpriced from fence

Thats why i loot almost every better ammo on my scav runs 😄

[tepid cypress]

werent u able to buy ammo from the flea before I havent played in a while

idk why they got rid of it if it was like that before

[viral cloud]

Idk, thats my first wipe 😄

[tepid cypress]

oh alr

[viral cloud]

49 hours

[nova umbra]

most high tier ammo cant be sold on flea

ref sells things for gp coins

[nova umbra]

check the flea for boxes of ammo not individual rounds

you can sometimes buy better rounds that way

[viral cloud]

Btw i was checking the wiki about scav karma, i understand the max of 6 etc. but i do not know much about that it gets better each whole number, can someone explain to me for example what will be better on Karma of 1 or 2 as i undestand the benefits of maxing it on 6 but is there any difference between 1 and 6 at all ?

[oblique hornet]

There us no difference between 1 and 6 other than the benefits at 6 and the lower scav times the higher your rep is

[viral cloud]

So the loot which i spawn on scav is not getting better by my karma as i saw somewherE ?

[torn rapids]

attachment cabin on woods has a good ammo spawn outside it

[glass atlas]

familiarise yourself with the ammo spawns on the maps you play and just hit them. I’ve found a bunch of M855A1, 545 BT and whatever in abundance since they can come in 100/120 packs.

[oblique hornet]

It can but ive also seen people with 6 plus scav karma spawn with pistols

[tepid cypress]

where can I find gas analyzers more frequently? Im on sanitary standards pt2 and I havent found one yet I tried customs but dont know where to look

[viral cloud]

@tepid cypress Inters idea and almost every shop there

[oblique hornet]

Check filing cabinets, tool boxes, tech crates, basically all maps

[woven depot]

I’ve gotten decent at firefights and slowly learning the health system but jeez these extracts are killing me

[elfin elm]

offline raids

nothing gained, or lost; except learning experience

[stable wasp]

is the hall of fame bugged or ? why does it show 0% combat boost when i put opposing faction dogtags too

damn wtf i had to just reset the game, nvm

[viral cloud]

Is there any early use of SAS then cultist circle ? 😄

[analog wraith]

Pve too

[jolly plover]

why there are times when i hear my gun shoot, i die, and then it tells me i didnt shoot, are the servers really that bad?

[scenic lake]

+1

[jolly plover]

really? i literally headhsoted a guy with a m700 right before he killed me and shot didnt register 🙁

[scenic lake]

:3

😝

[plush quest]

should i just vendor the figurines and bear from the new code?

or are they used for something

[scenic lake]

wiki is your friend my friend

[analog field]

yo yo sup

[scenic lake]

dosent really matter

[undone drum]

and u killed them?

[analog field]

ah nice

[jolly plover]

which code gives it?

[plush quest]

OEFT7THBDAY

[jolly plover]

tyyy

[solar mirage]

How does one get the mandibles for the neosteel helmets

[stone spindle]

hello, what am i supposed to put in the spare additionals slot inside the resting space 3 ?

[scenic lake]

gooning posters

so you can goon
its quite shrimple really

[young ledge]

there was an item in an event last wipe but right now the event is over and you cant get the item for it anymore

[winged shale]

Where can i find oscopes quick

[half kernel]

Anywhere with medical spawns

Medical bags

[winged shale]

like medtent on factory works?

[half kernel]

Pharmacies on Streets of tarkov are decentish spots

Medtent would work

Probably not the best though

[bitter crag]

yes but youll have only a few chances

[winged shale]

darn idk streets

[half kernel]

Streets is a good map to learn

[winged shale]

any tips to learn a map quick?

[bitter crag]

woods usec camps ok and around the area

[stone spindle]

okay ty 🙂

[half kernel]

Big with a lot going on and a lot of places and chances for loot

Medical camp on Woods is a good one

Crackhouse on Customs too

[winged shale]

fr?

[bitter crag]

also emercom in interchange and new areas there got many med spawns

[half kernel]

Yup

[winged shale]

ah

[half kernel]

Upstairs in crackhouse in that long big room facing towards Fortress

[winged shale]

yes

[half kernel]

Be careful because any scavs, pmc's or bosses in Fortress more than likely can see you sometimes and will screw you up when you're in that medical room minding your business.

[winged shale]

yeah

you think scav runs i can find one quick too?

probably lower chance but yeah right?

[half kernel]

Definitely good chances on Scav runs

As long as people haven't looted it first

As a Scav you'll spawn in later and some player scavs can spawn in before you. Also Crackhouse is a popular loot spot and a lot of people go through it.

So be ready for a fight or to find no loot, on PVP that is.

On PVE you'll be fine

[winged shale]

aight thank you

[half kernel]

No worries

[winged shale]

also with learning maps you think i should just do practice raids a lot and learn?

[half kernel]

Scav runs I find are best to learn

Go in with a map on a 2nd screen or keep tabbing out

Go slow, check every building and find the extracts

So you can earn a little money from selling random crap while you learn.

[winged shale]

ah i see

[half kernel]

You will need to do some side quests on Streets eventually.

[winged shale]

streets is a giant map and ive played a few scav runs and random people helped me extract but i feel like i didnt learn much

[half kernel]

I tend to find playing slow and cautious on your own is a better method for learning maps. however if you're a first time Tarkov player or have recently started then this can put you off and set you back a bit.

Playing with people is great for learning maps you're somewhat familiar with already a little.

[winged shale]

yea

[half kernel]

Mix the 2 solutions is the best option I believe. 🙂

[winged shale]

okay

[half kernel]

Playing alone can be good to do certain quests, especially the kill 5000 scavs etc ect

[winged shale]

kill 5000 scavs..

[half kernel]

Overexaggeration

Lol

[winged shale]

lol

well thank you

[half kernel]

No worries

[plush quest]

is the ground zero duration wrong on the wiki lol

it says 35 minutes and i extracted at 25 and it said i was there for 5 minutes </3

[peak sphinx]

yeah when i entered raid it was 30 min

not sure if it was because of update or wiki is wrong

always good habit to double check timer, maybe something updated or something got funky

[plush quest]

blegh

at least i didnt have anything i needed to be fir on me

[cloud basin]

USEC is a tiny bit better on 1 map at 1 spot

[exotic sentinel]

Update just dropped which drops raid times

[cloud basin]

[cosmic island]

can you get thicc items case from marked rooms still?

[hidden seal]

Think you can get any case

afaik

[jolly plover]

got the rb vo marked, is it good?

well, more than good, how easy is it to open it?

[stable wasp]

Ya, it still said 0% but after i reset the game its displaying 8 something

[stable wasp]

Its at the corner of the map, its usually safe to get to. Your only problem is getting to extract. You need someone to hit the switch for hermatic, need to turn power on for D2, or Cliff descent with Redrebel/Paracord/No body armor

Should aim to get red rebel asap. so you can leave reserve and lighthouse easier
