[wooden gull]

tbh i don’t remember ever spawning there it’s usually like between old sawmill and village

i think there a spawn by the wall

[astral otter]

I spawn there and at outskirts a lot

I never spawn top left so I don't know that part at all

[wooden gull]

yeah same here i don’t get usec camp spawn or sunken villages

[fiery moat]

[astral otter]

I know customs well now at least

Haven't played shoreline enough

[random sand]

Close your game clear cache and logs then go into raid and stay in the raid a bit longer

[fiery moat]

is it better to give the secure folder 0052 to therapist or skier?

[grand linden]

did they remove the frostbite?

[astral otter]

Are there guides for stash optimizing?

Bro got hacked

[safe grove]

Not really much to add on besides get cases, and stuff like if you're desperate for space to remove pistol grips from guns to save some blocks

I personally dont like stashing shit in rigs, because it becomes a pain, but that's another level you can go to if you absolutely need it

And also liquidating what you can on the flea to "store" items in cash and buy em back when you need em for non-fir stuff

[astral otter]

I stack bags and put rigs in those bags if I need to

Those twitch drops absolutely annihilated my stash

Is it worth getting two junk boxes?

[safe grove]

yes, i always at min try to have 2. Ill crank it up a ton early wipe when I hoard everything I need for late quests, but then knock it down.

[astral otter]

Alright bet

I'll keep it in mind

Is it also worth working towards a docs case?

[safe grove]

yes

[astral otter]

Looks like I need to find that shit for the barter

[safe grove]

yerp

[obtuse light]

huh so ref balaclava does not count towards punisher?

i found one of his balaclavas on some pmc and just wear it because well- it says balaclava. Just killed 2 pmc with that and scav back vest and it didnt count

[astral otter]

Are dorm keys a good way to get those? I haven't even tried them yet lmao

I also got the 310 resort key iirc

[safe grove]

not really

[safe grove]

not worth going if its your only key

[astral otter]

It is so that's fair

I should invest in a duo

That's why, I couldn't see the channel

Thanks man

[compact vortex]

yooo what does the junk box do from trarapist i cant put anything inside of it

[undone drum]

meds

[compact vortex]

i cant put anything inside tho

i tryed meds

[astral otter]

Junk

Hideout items

Valuables, streamer items, tools

Anything you can sell her (besides meds) it can probably go into that box

[undone drum]

upps sory, yeah its for barter items

[grand linden]

yeah im not build for labs, how tf am i supposed to complete the missions when im going against mf like these

[astral otter]

You don't

[undone drum]

genuine question or just venting

[compact vortex]

dw im worse

[old shadow]

does anyone know if christmas flares will work after tomorrow?

[grand linden]

questioning

[undone drum]

seeing so many hrs of opponents is disheartening?

or is it KD?

[grand linden]

its literally this

50 hour dude vs 5k monster

[undone drum]

5k means nothing
there are many players with 1000s of hrs
and 300 hrs player who are genuinly good

[old shadow]

you can thank the cowards that ran to pve and left the rest of us normies to fight only sweaty chads 🥲

[astral otter]

I'm just learning maps in pve

I'm treating it as a second wipe too ngl

[grand linden]

i love getting one tapped and every opponent magically knows my location

[undone drum]

you wanna know how?

[compact vortex]

ears lol

[grand linden]

probably basic locations

[undone drum]

also:
knowing where people spawn and roughly knowing where to expect them in the first minutes from dying 100 times there

[grand linden]

i had to escape lab just to unlock it, died just within meters to exit

[undone drum]

Its called "Knowing flow of the map"

[undone drum]

analyse what you did wrong, break it down to small peaces

[compact vortex]

well i cant talk i only got 30hrs so ur probs right about everything lol

[undone drum]

nah, challenge me

ur welcome to question it

[compact vortex]

the only map ik where every1 spawns in is ground

[undone drum]

already good

people go, die 1000 times, play their stash empty without learning anything

[grand linden]

i panicked when players surrounded me, thats what i did

[compact vortex]

my aim is smt else

[undone drum]

and u did what?

[compact vortex]

had a free kill im i messed it up

[grand linden]

went into corner where i shot myself into leg basically

[compact vortex]

lol

[undone drum]

my aim is worse, but in tarkov knowledge, unpredictability, decision making, positioning beats aim

[compact vortex]

fair

eh ill get there

[undone drum]

move always move is my motto

[azure mist]

Sound management and game knowledge > all

[undone drum]

did you know for example: if you turn around, access inv or aim downside you make sound?

[compact vortex]

ngll i might try find a dou that as bad as me so we both suffer

[compact vortex]

what maps u dont know lol

[azure mist]

The amount of ppl I play with and against that are trying to rat or be sneaky but still end up shuffling or doing some other weird stuff, hitting bushes, going on bad surfaces, etc, sound kills more than anything imo

[grand linden]

yes

[undone drum]

labs streets

[compact vortex]

ngl isnt labs like hell?

u spawn get jumped

[undone drum]

everything is hell untill you know it

my fav map is lighthouse. everyone hate lighthouse
i learned exactly what to do at each spawn by dying 1000 times there

Now its paradise

[compact vortex]

lol

im learning customs

[undone drum]

My safe path on lighthouse

Least ammount of chokepoints and pvp areas

if you just wanna quest

[compact vortex]

i dont have that map unlocked

but when i do sure

[azure mist]

Thats a map of customs tho so ur good

[compact vortex]

btw what the blue line

[charred marsh]

should i keep a ufh rfid reader?

[undone drum]

my safe path basically
how i would go around it, if i wanna avoid pvp

[compact vortex]

aaa

[undone drum]

check tarkov wiki real quick, if you need it for quests or hideout
Just google:
tarkov wiki ufh rfid

[compact vortex]

i kinda was alr following smt like that with out knowing

[undone drum]

nice nice

[compact vortex]

so i spawn some where near brige and just followed the wall

[undone drum]

yeah but not at dorms ofc

[compact vortex]

i when tru that

[undone drum]

and hill east of dorms being camped often

[compact vortex]

to many shots

btw i extracted as scav on custom and my main story line quest didnt finish

do i have to do as pmc?

[undone drum]

quests like that can only be done as pmc!

[compact vortex]

F

eh atleast now i kinda know the way

[spring adder]

Why in gods name do you lose so much fence rep for killing a guard?

I killed one guard, and lost 3.42 fence rep.

[compact vortex]

dang

[azure mist]

Sounds like a bug

[compact vortex]

mine only 0.17 low as hell

[undone drum]

because some bosses + guards are in scav faction

[spring adder]

That's a crazy high punishment though

[compact vortex]

ngl its tarkov

what do u expect

[azure mist]

Yeah you don't lose that much unless it's a very recent change

[spring adder]

I mean sure it's set me back to 5.96

But like-
3 and a half rep points?

[azure mist]

Oh if you had that high it might be something with you being above 6

[compact vortex]

i mean thats messed up

[undone drum]

do you know how to look up what boss is in scav faction?

[spring adder]

So killing a guard just drops you to right under fence level 4?

[spring adder]

Not the foggiest

I got this junk from it too

[undone drum]

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

[azure mist]

There's probably some scaling going on based on your rep amount, some people for example were saying killing santa gave no punishment but if you were above 6 you lost 1 rep. I killed a boss as a scav and lost 0.1

[compact vortex]

yo thats ganna help when i need to kill bosses

[spring adder]

That just feels wild. That killing a scav boss guard resets you straight to below fence level 4. No matter how much rep you have lol.

[vague orchid]

thoughts on the M4 build I made? the Cmag is just there for the looks, I useally just use 60 rounders

[astral otter]

Not enough cursed jank

Needs more picatiny and lasers

[compact vortex]

whats that..

[astral otter]

You don't know about the cursed weapon loudouts on tarkov?

[compact vortex]

Noo

I'm only lvl 5

Idk more than ground zero and little bit of customs

[vague orchid]

so canted scopes and stuff

[astral otter]

You need like 5 flashlights on it trust

[vague orchid]

equips the brightest flashlight.

sadly this in PVE where blinding people doesn't work

[astral otter]

NOOO

[vague orchid]

can I mount canted irons?

[undone drum]

no

[spring adder]

Wait flashlights do nothing in pve?

[undone drum]

maybe people in #pve-chat know

[compact vortex]

In pve do u just pay 40 dollars to shoot NPC's? Or is it different

[vague orchid]

damn I wish canted irons wheer a thing

[vague orchid]

it's a lot calmer and you don't deal with bad conections as offten

[compact vortex]

Oh

So chill side of tarkov alr

[spring adder]

Pve is a much more enjoyable experience to me personally.

I don't really like pvp, I don't really trust people, so you can take the game at your own pace. Much more comfortable. I got it on steam sale ^

[vague orchid]

yeah that's basically why I swapped over

[compact vortex]

Fair every1 has their opinion

Ngl I enjoy the PvP so I prefer normal tarkov

[sharp crypt]

Hey guys I have a 3070 FE 32gb of DDR4 ram a 5600x I'm trying to get at least a constant 60fps I know streets it will never happen but like customs I'm only running an average 50 is there something I should try to change?

[spring adder]

I just have as they say-
A lack of talent in pvp

I don't really fancy hopping into a game, getting totally destroyed by a guy with thousands hours over me, and losing all my stuff

[compact vortex]

I don't have that problem

[undone drum]

thats what makes those fights so much meaningful
there is something at stake
and makes it exiting

[lapis flicker]

Start on pve and after you gain knowledge and confidence be sure to hop on pvp

[wary timber]

You can scav and do offline raids to learn maps etc so you have a better understanding

But also, learn from your deaths and record them

[undone drum]

problem with that:
many pve players get bad habbits

lack of healthy paranoya kills

but pve is fun i am sure

[compact vortex]

Ngl learning a map when Ur lifes on the line is just way easier to learn idk why

[patent estuary]

bruh what even are reserve spawns wtf

[compact vortex]

12 sec...

[patent estuary]

istg i died even faster

i like spawnd ran a few meters and died

5 seconds might be too much fr

[compact vortex]

Lol

[lapis flicker]

What is the max possible stash size like can you buy the unheard edition and then the 56 lines of stash with cash + hideout upgrades?

[astral otter]

Not looking forward to this

[tawny knot]

the further into the game you go the more boxes you get the stash is less of an issue. plus hideout upgrades

[compact vortex]

I need to find the drill to upgrade my stash

Any1 know where it's at

[patent estuary]

try interchange

[wary timber]

Gz and customs nice for drills

[patent estuary]

i've seen a few in OLI on the shelves

yeah ground zero too

[compact vortex]

Ty

Anyway I'll do it tmrw and gn pll

[sharp crypt]

Okay maybe I just gotta tweak some settings

[left forge]

smuggler camp in shoreline is really good for hideout items, you might find a drill in there

[lofty folio]

anyone need halp

[zealous kiln]

hello

anyone to play, i'm new just doing initial quests

[visual isle]

so for the flea market is there anyway to keep the Auto select option on by default when i sell?

[lofty folio]

unfortunately not need to click it every log in session to my understanding it stays when you enable it and are selling with in a session

[lofty folio]

what servers are you playing on

[zealous kiln]

i guess europe you mean?

[lofty folio]

yeah i am NA Canada

[graceful spear]

is there a prize for being a player who have successfully joined Team/check/blast with the highest lose rate?

in Arena

I've managed somehow to break all expectations.. Prior to 2 days back I played Arena for about a week (been playing EFT for years) but never knew the games were "connected"the way they were. Team matches Tended to win every 3rd or 4th match all the way up until 2 days back. The I got the quest s earing hights part 4. Pay 1 mill rubles and win 3 out of 6 team type matches. I've won 2, twice, and another probably 60 lost. Currently at a 52 Highest lose streak. I've paid somewhere between 12-18 million (lost count) to renew the task. Dunno what happened, but just as I got that "expensive" task, it seem completely impossible to end up in a winning side

[bitter verge]

lol

[hidden seal]

if you have above 6.0 when you killa scav it will consider you had 6.0 then apply the penalty

so if you have 9.0 and shot a scav.. will drop to 5.96 same as if you have 6.01

[unkempt egret]

Nikita hardcoded the games to give you the worst teammates in the game after you accept a quest that requires a winstreak.
He also manualy deletes all the items you need for a particular quest the second you hit accept.

[spring adder]

So the slightest infraction if you're above 6 rep and you get reset to 5.96?

That's a bit of a f*ck you if I ever saw it lol
I wonder what the motivation was behind this choice

[hidden seal]

think was for peopel to not make safety buffers otherwise they can go into bosses start killing them an their guards woudl not aggro

[unkempt egret]

Probably to prevent people from using high karma as a currency to farm free scav/boss kills with no consequence.

[spring adder]

But if you shoot a boss, or a guard. You make them hostile anyway, even without that huge rep hit. Right?

So if it's already coded in the game that they become hostile after you hit one or the other. The rep hit feels a bit needless.

[unkempt egret]

Could be that the rep hit IS the way it is coded for them to turn hostile.
Spagethi code works in mysterious ways.

[spring adder]

I don't think so.

Because the same happens when you shoot a pmc in a group
Or if you accidentally dink a lonely scav in the leg (which you don't even lose rep for but the whole map turns hostile)

If it already works that way for scav and pmcs.
Then the rep hit to killing a single guard feels a lot more like a f*ck you than spaghetti code

Maybe I'm just grumpy because I don't like losing rep

It isn't like it takes effort to work up again anyway. Just one scav run where you dink a pmc someone else is already fighting and you're back to max rep

[forest skiff]

how common are the cheaters on labs right now?

[reef chasm]

and just how exactly do I lure this scav to do the co-op extract? he never gets close to the extraction cornor no matter I shoot him or let him shoot me or whatever

It’s so hard to lure SCAV to specific position in a tight space like this

[astral otter]

Honestly i know if you just keep making noises they should come eventually

[reef chasm]

Is there a special trick? Like make noise at the point of extract but don’t let SCAV see you? Or maybe injure him first to aggro?

[astral otter]

I've got no idea man

[mint light]

either

1. be in pvp mode and talk to a real player.
2. facetank all his bullets and forcibly move him with your body

[ivory trench]

when does this frostbite event end its so fukcing ass

[undone drum]

its ennded

[ivory trench]

thank god, okay than kyou

[ivory trench]

[ivory trench]

[ancient pilot]

that area is great for all the hideout items

[ivory trench]

is this gun any good?

[keen fossil]

It’s okay

I’d repair it

the adar is a low recoil 556 dmr

It shoots flat but the bullet isn’t the best for semi auto weapon

[ivory trench]

kk got it thanks, also if im actively looting something like a bag,do people hear me ruffling through it?

[dusky lantern]

I'm really new to the game and looking for people to play with and learn the game

[keen fossil]

I know openning/closing makes noise but I’m not entirely sure about searching

[mint light]

yes

[ivory swift]

should i do story tasks or side tasks first

[undone drum]

story tasks until you unlocked all traders and most maps, then side quests

[ivory swift]

kk

[ivory trench]

anyone know where i am in customs?

[ivory trench]

is that his?

[sharp plume]

no

your on the right side

[rich current]

How do I prevent being domed in the head

I have a 21 leave percentage

[undone drum]

be first or be last to enter

you spawn there?
excellent, go in, do you quests, get out quickly

didnt spawn there and don´t want to pvp? loot around the map, untill late in the raid

[undone drum]

since you use map genie

[ivory trench]

is old gas station around me here?

[tall panther]

Yes, to the left there

[rich current]

Id love to PVP but I simply cant with the ammo Im using and the skill level that Im at

[undone drum]

thats alright

[ivory trench]

think im here but i cant find it

im s ascav btw

[tall panther]

Walk forward

[ivory trench]

nvm got it ty

from this loot any ideas of whats worth keeping?

[tall panther]

Assuming you are newer and lower level, everything. but the SKS

[ivory trench]

my inventory is jhust packed to the brim rn i have no space

so annoying

[tall panther]

Yikes

[ivory trench]

im tryna sell but it says i dont have enough space in my stash, i guess for the money? anyone know the solution? do i have to make mroe space in my inventory?

even tho space gets cleared up when it does sell

nvm i did it, i have enough money to buy this but then ill be broke, is it worth it?

[placid quest]

yes, this is a crucial first item to inventory management

[ivory trench]

alright tyy

[sullen reef]

Is the frostbite event over? I wonder if i just spawned with a helmet and glasses that prevents the damage.

[ivory trench]

yeah

[ivory trench]

holy shit this thing is iunsane

[placid quest]

wait until you get a thicc case lol

[ivory trench]

lool is there an ammo case too?

[placid quest]

yes there are ammo boxes

[cyan apex]

@ivory trench here's all the cases

[keen fossil]

Is the toolbox new?

[cyan apex]

this?

[keen fossil]

Is it just like “tool” items

[cyan apex]

link bsg to discord

[keen fossil]

Yeah

[cyan apex]

u get it for free

[keen fossil]

what is it tho

[keen fossil]

Oh

[cyan apex]

toolbox lol

[keen fossil]

lol

[ivory trench]

Holy shit, when do I start getting access to all that lol

[cyan apex]

only thing missing is thicc weapon case and sicc case

[ivory trench]

Tonight may have been my best run yet, 3 runs and didn’t die once

[cyan apex]

traders starting lv 2

[keen fossil]

You unlock them as you complete quests and level up

[sullen reef]

Were they pmc runs or scav runs?

[ivory trench]

2 pmc runs and 1 scav

The scab doesn’t really count tho I got spawned in with like 13 mins left

[sullen reef]

NICE! I'm finally getting to the point where I can finish some runs. I still die a LOT as a pmc though.

[ivory trench]

Yeah me too, think my survival rate is like 18% lol

[sullen reef]

Its hard because starting out you don't have enough roubles to get a good kit, and when you get a halfway decent one on your scav, then you get lose them and then back to no roubles.

[ivory trench]

Tbh starting the game during the frostbite event is a huge money sink, I’m honestly really pissed off about that event and how much it crutches beginners

[ivory swift]

is this good i found it in a crate

[sullen reef]

LOL it was brutal especially while trying to learn the maps

[placid quest]

yeah those go for like 300k on the market

[ivory trench]

Yup it was not fun LOL but now I found it a lot easier to play thankfully, and don’t have to keep spending 20k on a stupid ass helmet to prevent frostbite

[sullen reef]

That is a huge plus. Did you trade knives for the hat at all to save money?

[warped anchor]

Sells to ragman for some decent cash

[ionic saddle]

why cold kill me so hard?

[dreamy ruin]

any kind soul that could bring me a hexagon sks suppressor? I need to unlock ammo case so bad

[polar dawn]

in what order to unlock for hideout?

[upper shale]

can someone help me with pkp i cant find it

[silent sage]

it only spawns on kaban

[atomic charm]

why is it that all of a sudden scopes on my sr25 are 100km away from my face?

[hollow pawn]

hi - I was wondering if someone could help me with Gunsmith part 3? I feel it's "ready" but somehow Im missing something

[tawdry hazel]

You still needing help?

[hollow pawn]

yes if possible

you can DM and I can share screen if easier?

[tawdry hazel]

Take a screen shot of the weapon inspection tab

Should show all the parts

[hollow pawn]

i just took it all apart

[tawdry hazel]

yeah

[keen sentinel]

I just did 4 quests on shoreline, extracted and was met with a black screen where i could still hear the wind

so i reset and none of the quests counted. GG

[hollow dune]

yup same

3 raids in a row

[keen sentinel]

ur the 2nd person that said its a problem rn. yeah im just gonna go to sleep

[cyan apex]

actually it was kind of good, giving money for easy missions, people not running helmets in the starting as nobody knew what kept people warm, so everyone was rocking the beenies lol

though bennies were on lv2 ragman, until then i was stealing all the knifes off scavs and buying ushankas

[tawdry hazel]

Worst part about it being lvl2 Rag, I remember bringing a random a bag full of 12 beanies just so they could raid as a newbie

[cyan apex]

oof

this was a lifesaver

[tawdry hazel]

Agreed

[cyan apex]

factory > dead scavs > no frostbite

[hollow pawn]

is the cold/frost effect gone?

[silent sage]

no

[hollow pawn]

I was on a scav that just had a grinch mask and frost didnt kick in though

on woods

[rain mango]

im helping new players in raids dm me na

[thorny whale]

does anybody have some tips for stirrup? seems like killing pmc with pistols is impossible ive tried to shoot people in the legs but i just dont do enough damage and get killed instantly

[last finch]

free class5 armor plates giveaway message me if you wang them

[little oxide]

How many players I can join on a raid?

Also how do I redeem the codes if I bought Tarkov on Steam?

[little oxide]

Like 0/4 or 0/3?

[hidden seal]

you need to find people without face shields

and the auto pistols with drum mags help as well

[hidden seal]

you need to make a BSG account on their site and link to your steam

and max group size is 5

[little oxide]

I made an account already, but not yet linked on Steam

[hollow pawn]

guys. this on GZ. i just need to find the liquer store.,..

[silent sage]

A true tarkov moment

[hollow pawn]

lol

[fallen swallow]

true GZ moment

some spawns are super close to each other

[fallen swallow]

you know where the science building is? with the indoor parking garage

[hollow pawn]

I know where it is as I did it on PvE, I just cant seem to survive past the 1st min. Fair I had a Marlin as Im trying to do shooter part 1, but still -_-

[fallen swallow]

ah

[hollow pawn]

it's the 5th time today

[hidden seal]

Spawn and immediately move to hide. Wait to things to unravel for a few isntants. Use tunnels to get to the back of the store after that

[fallen swallow]

ik keep forgetting that store down from emercon has a hallway to the liquor store

[hidden seal]

the interior connections of GZ are the best part of the map

using the street is mostly a trap

yet I keep falling for it 😛

[hollow pawn]

died again, but at least I got tarkov shooter 1 and 2

[hidden seal]

funny I struggle with tarkov shooter but had no difficulty with the liquor store

you already over level21?

[hollow pawn]

yes, 26

[hidden seal]

I assumed not sicne it is an early task

after level 21 I think you will need to be much sneakier and hide for a longer while

[fallen swallow]

Don't even need to hide just know your spawns

[hidden seal]

yes but hiding for 1 min is easier 😛

as GZ usually have very early violent clashes that cull the PMC count

trying to remember.. what is the quest to check the trunk of a car in front of fusion in groudn zero?

aa foudn it shady contractor

[minor crescent]

is 5.2 MOA bad?

[median relic]

[minor crescent]

[median relic]

high moa is bad for sniping

[minor crescent]

i dont usually rat or cqc

i usually do medium range

[median relic]

to make it simple: MOA is the measurement how much off Target your bullets can be on about 100meters

like for example that toz from fence with low dura has a MOA of 61 which means you cannot reliably hit something on a large distance

and if you compare the other two pictures ( new svt VS fence low durability SVT) you will see the MOA gets worse if your weapons durability gets lower

@minor crescent

[minor crescent]

oh ok thanks

so this is not bad

[median relic]

this means on 100 yards distance your weapon can be 1,8inch of target

[minor crescent]

sooo

,30 cm

so accurate

[median relic]

91,44meter is 100 yards and 1,8 inch is 4,5cm

which is still okish but not super great 😄

[minor crescent]

ah ok

[median relic]

not a sniping weapon

[minor crescent]

well as i said i do mid range or even close

[median relic]

and it means UP TO this its not all the time ofc

[median relic]

yea its still good i just want to tell you so you can tell yourself next time 😄

[minor crescent]

yeah thx man

[median relic]

no worries 🙂

[minor crescent]

i was struggling to undeerstsand that for a while

[median relic]

yea the measurements are wierd

[hidden seal]

yeah that is a rule of thumb conversion MOA is minutes of angle that at about 100 m is ROUGHLY that same number in inches of deviation

but there is some rounding on that approximation

on any auto weapon the recoil will have more effect than the MOA

[minor crescent]

no wa i killed someone withh rrlp

[hidden seal]

well if you aim to face or legs it works better than AP ammo

[minor crescent]

i think i got him in the eyes

i just sprayed idk

is this full auto glock good?

[manic sable]

knee deleter

[minor crescent]

ok so leg meta

i should use dums dums or rip

[twilit python]

is west wing 222 key good???

[noble wave]

think so but check the wiki to see whats behind the door

i dont really remember

[twilit python]

okayy

this is whats in it

[copper violet]

unusual request but i'm looking for a PVE flea market guru - PM me

[undone drum]

[arctic linden]

do the rouges shoot at scavs?

[undone drum]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHU0teWGVBw&t

not if you don´t shoot them or come close to them

keep 10-15 m distance and check the guide above for the hidden spots

[arctic linden]

alr thank you

[wet tulip]

Can someone help me one round of arena checkpoint please?

[tropic pulsar]

I need the same thing. I am not super good, but can hold me one. Let me know if there is anyone that can help us out!

[jovial smelt]

The camp to the south west on interchange is always a good spot, near the trucks and the van where the flare extract is I’ve seen plenty of cans spawn there

[twilit python]

is it good?

[wary timber]

Interchange, camp by path to river has about 5-6 fuel spawns

[hidden seal]

interchange scav camp and railroad exfil tent. In woods ZB-016

these places were I collected most

and without being super dangerous spots

[ebon oyster]

why is adrenaline stims so common 😭

i have 7 i want diffrent ones

[hidden seal]

because tarkov players get nervuos..t hat produce a lot of addrenaline. Therapist people come after the match to drain adrenaline from the bodies.. and make the injectors

[ebon oyster]

ive been grinding my med stash up

cause i used all my meds when i was questing now im up again

i gotta sort my meds by what i posted ts blasphemy its not sorted at all

gonna have to give some of my stims to the guy im guiding

[open grove]

Ready for a small war 🫡 good stuff

[ebon oyster]

yeah i got most of these while trying to find food

and while running with my boy vour

[open grove]

Yeah you find way more morphine’s and adrenaline than any other stim

[ebon oyster]

i made 900k while doing pmc and scav runs with the guy

[faint kayak]

Later on don't you find more stims and such on maps like labs

[ebon oyster]

5 cms he got 3 i found 9 salewas well i kept 9 and gave him 5

yeah theres alot of med spawns in labs by what ive watched

never been there

i just got to lvl 15

interchange is the goat for decent med spawns while doing scav runs

[vague orchid]

Do rogues just have a chance to not spawn?

[fallen swallow]

yes

they have set locations, but sometimes they dont spawn there

[faint kayak]

How am I doing first wipe?

[vague orchid]

Nevermind found one

[ebon oyster]

damn

[vague orchid]

It almost killed me

[ebon oyster]

and i thought my med stash was nice fr

[faint kayak]

Tbf most of the stims are from twitch drops

[ebon oyster]

still impressive

this is my first time playing so idk shit

[faint kayak]

I need on/off partners because I enjoy company but my schedule is so random, even though im on for long sessions it can be day or night is all i work 3rd shift and sometimes im up during the day on my days off and sometimes im up all night to keep my sleep schedule

[faint kayak]

We can runnit if u wan im bored

[ebon oyster]

nah im doin scav right now

[ebon oyster]

[fiery moat]

i dont really know a reliable spawn but if you get jaeger to LL2 then he has the metal fuel for 191k

[ebon oyster]

[rustic void]

what do these +20s mean in my skills? Havent played in a couple years

[shadow pelican]

Anyone wanna help out a level 4 through customs?

[wispy void]

poor baby

[placid quest]

the amount of experience gained after or during a raid.

[velvet saffron]

awesome thanks

[vital hinge]

Guys how do I hunt cultists ? I usually go in customs in skeleton, between 22pm and 7am. It's been like 10 raids and I didn't see them even once. I make sure to check every where around, in the bushes especially. Do they spawn only in the beginning of the raid or can they spawn during the raid (assuming I'm on the correct time interval) ?

They should have 20-30 percent chance of spawning according to some sources

[frosty jay]

Hi can someone pls help me with my tarkov arena task for the theta pouch 🙏

[placid quest]

thats just how hunting cultists is. my rate of finding them is about 1 per 15 raids. I usually go shoreline or woods.

[hidden seal]

when I do not want to find them... they fidn me.. maybe you should start wanting to avoid them

[wary timber]

Ive had best odds of finding cultist on shoreline funny enough

[proud sedge]

How do I know when to get out of the BTR?

It gives me 0 indication what stop its at

[wispy void]

did you pay for a stop>

it goes straight to what you pay for

[compact vortex]

lf some1 that new to play with

[hidden seal]

it stops where you paid it to go

[vital hinge]

ty but in customs they only spawn in one area so I thought it might be easier

[hidden seal]

it is way more reliable than real life uber

[pale zinc]

Why is my aim like this

[proud sedge]

Ok thanks I figured that out I guess but was panicking in the btr lol

I thought it made stops along its way

[rancid osprey]

Hideout shooting range bug

[gloomy jacinth]

ive just completed to great heights part 5, what do i have to do now to unlock the next task towards receiving the theta container

[pale zinc]

Typical

Any fixes?

[rancid osprey]

1.0 ready! Should be fixed by 2.0 😉

[rancid osprey]

I think it's just with that scope and sometimes the Razor

[rancid osprey]

Won't look like that in an actual match but sometimes putting a riser under the 30mm mount will fix it but usually not

[pale zinc]

tac30 too

[rancid osprey]

In Tarkov, what can say? Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit.

[rancid osprey]

Oh yeah, and I think it has done it on me using an Elcan on an RFD but I might be mistaken

[opal ridge]

Should have a quest having you go customs I believe

[shadow ridge]

do i need to wear a hat to stay warm on factory or no because its mostly inside?

[gloomy jacinth]

Yeah thats what i want but he isnt giving me any task

I still have that task to kill pmcs wearing a paca and to kill targets inside a building

Might be that

[mint dagger]

I'm brand new to the game, can anybody teach me how to play

[weary sky]

EU?

[mint dagger]

north America

[opal ridge]

Yea

[storm trout]

Are you doing PVE or PvP?

[azure fable]

iv lost everything. i just get pushed by people with crazy gear and i cant do anything, do i just wipe my account and try again lol im lvl 13

[ivory swift]

why are traders so expensive to level up

[compact vortex]

idk

[tidal lagoon]

theyre not really

[ivory swift]

a million roubles for one level up is expensive

[hidden seal]

first if you are still low level stay in GZ for a while

since is only map with a differential match maker for lower levels

[azure fable]

oh, i didnt know that lol

[hidden seal]

at least until you feel you know why you are dieing

wish that matchmaker extended to customs.. would make onboardign of new players so much easier

[wary timber]

Buying, selling and bartering coubts towards mpney spent

[azure fable]

yeah lol that would be sick, any other map its always someone with 3k hrs

[ivory swift]

Oh ok that's way better thanks

[hidden seal]

like most will come from selling

except from therapist sicne you WILL buya junk box

[ivory swift]

I just noticed I have 362k spent in therapist from selling stuff to her

And other traders

[wary timber]

Yes ^^ knowing selling and bartering is included helps a lot

[hidden seal]

otherwise you woudl suffer liek hell to level up peacekeeper

[wary timber]

Fr, barter and selling to him is a life saver

[azure fable]

ig GZ level cap is below lvl 13 bc i got killed by a dude who is lvl 47 and has 4400 hrs lol

i looked it up and it says lvl 15 but that must of change to lvl 10 or somthing if hes in there

[ivory swift]

How do i access secret terragroup facility prapor gave me reserve map and i dont even have to go there?

[sharp plume]

its labs map you need labs access keycard

you have to transit to it from either factory or streets

[ivory swift]

how do i get the keycard

[vital hinge]

buy on flea or find on scav

[ivory swift]

i dont have flea

[full ravine]

anyone know how i can get past this part

[topaz dawn]

So pre level 10-15 I'm less likely to run into full kits on GZ compared to Customs/Woods? I'm returning after about 6 years and this game's changed a little

[vital hinge]

below lvl 21 you are against level 21 and below

above 21 you are against lvl 21 and above

[topaz dawn]

Ah that's quite nice

[vital hinge]

i think you have to be lvl 30 too

[signal bramble]

Still, you gotta be quick and nimble

"I'm ready, what about you."

• Emile

[topaz dawn]

Yea a lot's changed from the 84rnd Makarov in gamma days it seems

[vital hinge]

nice haha

[signal bramble]

[serene imp]

Guys I have an issue with arena, my xp is desynced, it's been going on for days now, and also, I unlocked some items on the battle pass, got Ref lvl 4 and can't buy them in EFT, it says I still need to unlock them. I'd like to report that bug but I haven't found the correct category to open a ticket, how can I reach out to BSG please?
I tried clearing cache, checking files integrity, none of it worked.

[signal bramble]

Give it a bit of time, it may be insanely slow before it'll resync or so

[hidden seal]

21

[serene imp]

@signal bramble Thing is, it happened when there was an issue with the servers, and it's been like that for almost 2 weeks now

Isn't there anywhere to report bugs that are within the game? I only find account and such things in the report an issue category

[silver parrot]

so, i been playin Tarkov for a bit, like 45 days my account has been active, i have level 6 gear and armor and all that thanks to a friend that bought them for me along with good guns and stuff to survive, BUT
i need to do the quests, i need hideout items, especially BIGGER STORAGE cause i dont have much

[swift acorn]

is the mysterious room marked key good?

[silver parrot]

ive been stuck on the shoreline mission

i know where i need to go its just i cant do it alone/i would like help to get it done and get out as safely as possible

[zealous kiln]

hello, im noob wanna play with someone to understand extractions, can i group with anyone?

[naive pulsar]

hey same here man

[open flower]

is having max gun mastery worth?

[naive pulsar]

hey i need help i only know one exit on 1 map and dont know what to look or where to

[sharp plume]

look up the wiki it has interactive maps that show a lot of stuff like extracts

[raw sun]

what is this defective wall in my hideout?

[spiral arch]

leading to gym hall of fame and gear rack upgrades

[raw sun]

so do i dismantle the wall?\

[spiral arch]

yep opens a new room

[crisp plume]

you get slightly quicker reloads and with max you can reload while aiming down sights

Its hard to help people with to great heights part 3 cos they need to get 3rd place

[rare inlet]

i get that just playing solo and teams arent good

[crisp plume]

I got through mine solo

just learn a single map on a game mode you enjoy

blast gang is easiest imo to influence a win and get a high spot

[grand orbit]

Is there landmines on ground zero?
Also how tf am I supposed to find an extract

[sharp plume]

use the wiki maps they show landmine areas and extracts

[grand orbit]

thanks

[uneven umbra]

where should I run as a new player because I have a quest to extract on customs but I keep getting my ass kicked by people with thousands of hours lmao

[wary timber]

Have you learned customs?

But also, you should have quests on ground zero

Ground Zero has 2 separate queues so you'll most likely be put with beginners like yourself with some luck

[uneven umbra]

I mean ive got the map genie map open on my 2nd monitor and ik the map well enough to know where I spawn

[hidden seal]

aff bsg... laucnehr says ;ping 40 when I enter game ping is 340 and I got booted

[uneven umbra]

only quest I have on ground zero left is to use the vehicle extract but last I checked it cost me like 25k because my scav karma is at like -0.68

[wary timber]

Dorms is a very PvP heavy area, same with the gas station near dorms. And the huge building in middle by flare extract is also a PvP heavy zone

[hidden seal]

new super stupid BSG bug.. I select Brazil servers and it connected me to a Eastern european server

[wary timber]

You also have boss spawn at dorms, gas by dorms and the huge building in the middle by flare

[hidden seal]

taht was bullshit bsg.. I lost my kit because you decide to connect me on other side of world

[uneven umbra]

so armorless runs with the 10 round single fire ak might be my issue? 💀

[spiral arch]

i can help ( learn customs) you out in abit if you want? im just eating now

[hidden seal]

I do not know if I get happy or frustrated that I died more tiems to BSG server issues this week than to players

[ivory swift]

why did i just do a whole raid finish 2 quests and it didnt even save

[warped anchor]

😭

[ivory swift]

it only saved the amount of ammo i used

[stable wasp]

Anyone know why im still stuck with 5 max listings on Flea market with 23.4 rep. while my homie has 7 rep with 6 max listings?

[hidden seal]

something happened to US north east servers a hickup at least

my ping skyroicketed

maybe some games were rolled back

i was thrown back at my hideout

[wary timber]

Unheard gets +1 listings and u get ur next +1 listings at 30 or 50 rep

[stable wasp]

appreciate ya

god damn unheard

[wary timber]

Here you go

[stable wasp]

tyty

makes a lot of sense

i tried searching on wiki, didnt realize i had to scroll all the way to the bottom for that chart

[wary timber]

Yea, itsa bit annoying

[grand orbit]

knew this games gonna be torture but damn this is aids lol love it tho

[weary sky]

very hard but very worth. find yourself some buddies

[grand orbit]

sould prolly do that seems like most are sadly in amarica and not europe

i tried once and it makes the game so much more fun just having someone to play with is actually the key to fun icl

[digital musk]

If anyone is looking for a site to track their progress, items, etc... I ran into this site and it's probably the best out there right now - https://tarkovforge.com
Super clean and most importantly shows you items you need to keep, what for or sell. This might the the first site that is an all in one features for EFT.

[viral linden]

Whats the Best LPVO to use on night raids. Ive tried 2 of them but the scope makes targets darker and harder to see.

[lofty grove]

I have a standard account how would I go about upgrading to prepare to escape edition? Would I keep my stuff?

[heavy tree]

hii!! im new and bought the escape edition..can anyone give me tips?

[weary sky]

dont die

[heavy tree]

...thanks..

[hidden seal]

yes you would

with some caveats

you on steam?

if yes.. hope you had made a bsg accoutn and linked to steam. Because all upgrades are trough BSG account

and if you have not.. the moment you link both.. your accoutn is reset

[lofty grove]

I'm on bsg

[ivory swift]

bro why do i extract from raids and it says it wasnt saved im just wasting time getting loot and doing quests and it doesnt save

[hidden seal]

you playing on practice mode?

[compact wind]

no, he made a good point. dont die. play slow and safe.

[ivory swift]

no

[heavy tree]

i will

is there a decent gun build that someone whos playing for the first time with the escape edition could use?

im still getting the hang of FPS on pc but im relatively decent..prolly not at tarkov

[hidden seal]

stay on GZ on your first few matches

but run as scav or practice before you worry with your gun

[twilit python]

can someone slide me some ornaments 😏

[hidden seal]

impossible

they cannot be traded

[twilit python]

oh i meant give me them in raid

[hidden seal]

cannot as well

they cannot be dropped in raid

[twilit python]

:c

were best spot to get them?

[hidden seal]

the trees

obviously

[twilit python]

well yeah, but what map is best

for trees :3

[hidden seal]

1 per map

interchange is with tree furthest from hot pvp zone

[twilit python]

oh allright, could you show me pookie?

[hidden seal]

is in middle of the road in front of the mall

you cannot not see it if you go to the road

[twilit python]

allright thankssss

[stuck dawn]

Everyone loves persistent fatal errors. Years pass, the same errors occur and i am yet to find a reliable fix (current guess is a syncing issue when extracting from a raid)

(have double checked and this is a BSG side error. YAY)

[gentle monolith]

Uninstalling tarkov is the only reliable fix for these errors

[stuck dawn]

i know. Hell deleting system 32 is also a very reliable one.

[ivory swift]

i did 2 raids where i got my favorite plate carriers just for none of the raids to save

[stuck dawn]

Yeah, welcome to BSG server side errors, didly shit we can do but wait.

Just out of curiosity what plate carrier did you find?

[ivory swift]

the tv110 and avs

[stuck dawn]

AVS is among my favorites. the TV110 is good but i like AVS more since 2 extra slots means it is a life savor as just a stash space saver

[ivory swift]

i like them because they look nice

[stuck dawn]

yeah that too. but my favorite of all times is the Osprey. Damn fine rig, shame only 1 4 slot

[ivory swift]

thats a beefy one

[stuck dawn]

real beefy, but give it some ESAPI or Br5 plates and you are a bullet sponge

[ivory swift]

its something I'd wear if i wanted to kill everything

i wished the tv110 came in different colors

[stuck dawn]

i mean it is what i use when i run labyrinth, that and a Vulcan5 or 2D TM with visor. Dont like altyn or maska for that since FOV gets shafted (But altyn is a option since lv5 vs 4)

[stuck dawn]

yeah, cronic pain of tarkov everything is the wrong colors for real drip

[ivory swift]

im here trying to find a labs access card for my tour quests

[stuck dawn]

yeah, that is the constant pain. If you havent try running scavs on Ground Zero and loot the filing cabinets at Terragroup (room unlocked by scientist key and one next to it), Tarbank and then capital insight top floor (floor with the AGS). This was my go-to run for them early wipe before getting intel center to make them.

[ivory swift]

alright i play pve so learning the game is way easier when i was on pvp i couldnt even extract once

[stuck dawn]

Oh yeah. 100% understandable. I have too many hours in game and even i play PvE

[ivory swift]

yeah everyone i ran into even on ground zero "beginner map" had like 5000 hours

[magic perch]

can someone help me figure this out please, im thinking of upgrading the game as i got gifted it on steam, once i do, will i have to reset progress to gain access to the bigger stash and and container and other such goodies

[stuck dawn]

No, you do not have to reset to gain access to the benefits of the other version they will be applied automaticlly and the things will appear via Prapor or system

[magic perch]

thanks!

[ivory swift]

can i get gamma container anyway instead of buying 200 dollar upgrade

[signal rain]

hello, this is my first time playing EFT, I choose PVE cause my work doesnt lets me play more than a few hrs/day, anyways, Im about to hit lvl 19 and was wondering how should I approach the Tour quest? it stopped giving me options after telling me to find the entrance to the labs

[heavy tree]

how do i access my items from the escape DLC?

[signal rain]

terragroup facilities or so

[heavy tree]

or are the items already given when you start?

[stuck dawn]

Gamma is only for EoD and Unheard. You have access to 2 better containers even on standard. Kappa by finishing the collector questline. And Theta from some Ref quest (These can be done even without buying arena via the arena free trials if you plan ahead enough).

[lofty grove]

Tying to upgrade my game got this "confirm your card screen" I'm not seeing anything in my bank or getting any sms.. is it safe to refresh the page idk what to do

[sharp plume]

its the transit to labs on either factory or streets

[signal rain]

ohhh, I havent played much on factory ever since a dude with a rushing hammer killed me

ill try looking for it when the servers are back

[lavish kindle]

ANyone else having issues today where u finish an extract, but backend error makes u loose everything and go back to before run???

[pulsar ingot]

@lavish kindle having the same issue

[zenith island]

also getting this

any idea how to fix it

[stuck dawn]

BSG side error. Nothing we can do but wait. Happens every so often but gets fixed decetly quickly.

[uneven umbra]

double pressing o says I have old gas station on customs but theres no flare or anything and nothing happens in the basment so how do I extract?

[undone drum]

What other extracts do you have?

old gas is open, when green smole is present

[uneven umbra]

zb-013 zb-1011 the flare and the vehicle one

[uneven umbra]

so it doesnt like open at some point into the raid?

like theres no use in me waiting here for the smoke to appear?

[undone drum]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PpK5SVhlIqI&pp

[uneven umbra]

so my only free* choice is running to zb-1011?

[undone drum]

No its either open or not

[uneven umbra]

alright thanks

[undone drum]

Yes, unless u have flare on you

[undone drum]

Usually one extract is open without condition but its often on the other side

of the map

[uneven umbra]

theres that one way gate next to smugglers too isnt there?

so I have to go all the way arround?

[undone drum]

Where u have to jump over?

[uneven umbra]

yeah

you can only jump one way right?

[undone drum]

50m to the left of it there is another open gate

[uneven umbra]

yeah but thats the other side of the depot building right?

[undone drum]

Yeah

[uneven umbra]

alright thanks

I got 15 mins to get there from gas and I hear suppressed snipers 😔

I KID YOU NOT I WAS GUNNED DOWN THE SECONED I LEFT GAS 😭

[undone drum]

Killed scavs there?

[uneven umbra]

I didnt kill any lmao I just ran in and there were no scavs

waited, msged the dc, left and died 💀

[undone drum]

U heard shots that direction right? Maybe the right move was to go around, leaving the other entrance

All green, my servers were great as of 30 mins ago

[slate mountain]

reason why I am asking is because I loaded into a raid earlier and extracted but the items I got didnt save

[open grove]

Couple messages on main chat talking about server issues, so you may be onto something

[hollow grove]

Couple would be a major understatement. Like 10 reddit threads and at least a hundred messages.

[open grove]

Can safely say BSG’s server status page isn’t working as intended also then 😂

[slate mountain]

on a freaking weekend as well hahahaha

[hollow grove]

For them the weekend has already started. It sucks but... I dunno. Crap happens. There is some reports things are coming back up though so that's great.

[open grove]

Was gonna say I was gaming for last 4 hours no issues but hopped offline 30mins ago, that’s European servers tho

[vague orchid]

any tips on killing zaracyhe? trying to do the snowball achivment

I can't seem to get him before he gets me and I've been following the guide

I've been trying to use the spear loaded with FMJ

or is it just better to kill him once acess to lightkeeper is given and re-do the lightkeeper stuff?

[mint light]

ak 50 with hp ammo

one shot head

[naive pulsar]

i mean this community sucks dick at helping people learn a new game or even try to help

[vague orchid]

oh good idea

[undone drum]

what happened to you?
asked once, and no one replied?

[naive pulsar]

its all go to the wikki or youtube and look it up i went into voice chats and people refusd to try to teach me some of the basics or help me learn a map or something you got a better chanec to stick to looking at youtube then joinging a discord server

[open grove]

Map learning and learning the basics are best done by YouTube for sure, pre recorded edited videos and 3d maps are by far the best option, so that’s probably why people are pointing you that way

This is a great place for specific help but the big open ‘teach me the basics’ is a massive ask that a YouTube video can do much easier than someone dedicating hours to you. Although people do do that here too!

As for quick questions just scroll up this chat is nonstop support of specific issues or help people want

[dusty rapids]

anyone know what this is?

[open grove]

😂 has to be an oversight, probably a mis labelled item that isn’t attainable

That’s a new one for me

[undone drum]

tried making a ticket in #sherpa-info discord?

[oak jackal]

are the servers still messed up?

[ivory swift]

how do i get this achievement?

[undone drum]

not possible anymore

past event

[ivory swift]

will it come back?

[undone drum]

no

[ivory swift]

[tawdry chasm]

[tall panther]

Typically 3 hours then they rotate. Usually a 5 - 10min window of no goons well they are rotating.

Goons are currently on Woods (PvP)

this is the second time this has happened it only does this if I use the flare gun

[frank junco]

flare pistol you shoot straight up

handheld you aim down some

[spring timber]

wait so I have to use them differently?

[frank junco]

ya well the gun aims where you shoot it

[spring timber]

no where in the game does it describe that

[frank junco]

the handheld one is goofy

[spring timber]

Ive never had an issue with the hanheld one once in my 450 hours

[frank junco]

well i mean the flares have to hit a certain height to work

[placid quest]

yeah dawg you gotta aim straight up with the gun

[spring timber]

bruh no where in this game does it say this

thx for lmk

[placid quest]

thats how it is for like 90% of the crap in this game. Gotta figure it out. Sometimes you learn the hard way.

[frank junco]

fr youll run into that more often then not

[placid quest]

"what do you mean I cant fire a .300 blackout round in a 5.56 rifle? it fits in the m4 mags!"

[frank junco]

[rich current]

I just got this in a really lucky scav raid, thanks to whoever was the other player scav!

What is best to run whilst going to ground zero on low level whilst not being all that good

[wanton plume]

Both those guns aren’t a bad choice I go in with shit guns and be walking away with some nice kits

[frank junco]

ya mp5 on gz would go crazy

[wanton plume]

I like the hk on gz

[rich current]

What about armor

currently running this setup to find some better kits later on

[wanton plume]

It’ll be Ite nun good fr so won’t hurt to lose it lmao

Pistol only with no armor be the best come ups

[sullen coyote]

For Arena how long is a season?

[umbral salmon]

why this game have so many cheaters?

back to back to back to back cheaters :))

[hidden seal]

the rig from your previsus screenshot is far better armor

[hidden seal]

just report it in game after your death not here.

posting how you did here is against rules

[unique arch]

any tips how to kill priest

this shit quest is killing me

i was thinking about starting raid 21:30 and waiting for 22 so ppl would be gone

[hidden seal]

if the cultists spawn they will actively hunt.. so if you want to be the one to kill it you pobably cannot wait much

[unique arch]

yea i rush on customs scav base

but i had twice thingy like

i kill 3 guards and cant find priest or he is dead already

[hidden seal]

they are aggressive and tend to fid fights and die fast. even in PVE is hard to fidn and kill them before AI pmc do it

unfortunately.. luck is needed

on PVP I never tried yet

still staying away from night raids in PVP

[unique arch]

yea they are

sus

to say it kindly

[wind furnace]

Lookup maps online and keep them on a second monitor while you play, explore and learn where higher end loot is

[ivory trench]

Can someone remind me, I remember there being this thing when you put items in your safe pouch and extract vs just leaving it in your inventory and extract, something about the status of the item if you want to try and sell or something? Does that ring a bell

[weary sky]

if you dont die it stays FIR

but if somethings up your bum and you die it will lose FIR

[ivory trench]

Got it thanks!

[thin parcel]

is there a channel to find duos?

[weary sky]

lfg. You EU tho?

[thin parcel]

Nah AU

[dreamy ruin]

any tips on getting level 4 plates found in raid?

[open grove]

I think Kollontay/kaban’s guards have a lot in their armour you can take out

[open grove]

The arena related keys have a high drop rate for plates, usually atleast 2 a time, 1 lega token for those or you can sacrifice a ‘Mastichin’ figurine to get the Voron key on shoreline - the issue is sometimes you get tier5/6

[reef chasm]

Is it possible to use MXLR to complete The Tarkov Shooter series? Does this gun counts as Bolt-Action?

[weary sky]

yeh

[reef chasm]

Wait what? Why is it count towards bolt-action lol

That’s good to know

[fallen swallow]

Lever action / bolt action

It's not really a DMR since it can't fire without pulling the lever

[unkempt egret]

Lever action is "close enough" to bolt action for it to count. Just after 1.0 it was spammed to hell and back by basically everyone to the point it got nerfed like 4 times in a month (trader levels mostly).
While on the subject, the break action 762x54 Mp-18 counts as both a shotgun and bolt action for quests so for example settup and shooter born can be grinded at the same time.

[weary sky]

tbf the lever isnt actually that good for anything other then close range

its not very accurate past like 100m

[hidden seal]

i never managed to hit with its iron sights past 70

[bitter crag]

i mean its go 850 ish velocity and 1.33 moa so its still great up to 300 m at the very least

[eternal shoal]

anyone can help me with shooting cans task on interchange? NA east

[manic sable]

you cant do shooting cans on interhcange

[eternal shoal]

yeah i meant ground zero lol my b

[viral bay]

Hey, i need help for Therapist task, to Find and Gas analyzer in Raid and to hand it over, so i can craft one in the Christmas Tree does it than count as found in raid?

[astral glen]

Yes, crafted items are found in raid

[viral bay]

so the Task Find a Gas analayzer in Raid, and Hand over the Items both count?

[eternal shoal]

I have a found in raid gas analyzer for therapist, but it is not letting me turn it in?

[viral bay]

with in in pouch

[eternal shoal]

yes

[viral bay]

yeah thats why

[eternal shoal]

daaaaang lol

[viral bay]

i didnt know that too till today

you have to survive with it

[eternal shoal]

that hurts lol

[viral bay]

yes

i found that also today out

[hidden seal]

when you find something yuo need and you are looking for a long time.. extract. you can have other raids...

[hidden obsidian]

Does the transit on streets to labs not work with groups, I'm trying to complete the task "Beneath the Streets". Every time I go into a raid with other people it always pulls everyone out and splits them into different offline raids. Is there some thing im doing wrong?

[hidden seal]

you need to make the group before you go into the queue. Not a LFG one

[mild venture]

XD HOW

[noble wave]

yea bro it has a lot of valuable spawns in there

[grim raven]

he was healing
