[safe elk]

Because the quest continues

Simple enough to understand

[minor crescent]

why is there no carr??

[weary niche]

That means you dont have that extraction

Tap double O on your keyboard

[minor crescent]

Any newbies looking to squad up ?

[waxen umbra]

I`m looking for someone to play with

Its my second wipe and I´m in eu

[cursive prawn]

hi!! welcome to OEFT!

the best place to find other players is in #lfg-info there are channels for PvE and PvP. lots of live players there.

[waxen umbra]

thank u

[weary sky]

i might be down later

if your still about then

[meager vessel]

I'm having trouble installing the game, I keep having issues with files and was wondering if anyone has a sec and could help me out

[ember veldt]

How much space do you have left on that drive?

[meager vessel]

300 gigs I dont think its storage, I can show you if you get the chance im in chit chat 3

[ember veldt]

Sure, give me 5 mins

[meager vessel]

thank you

[glass viper]

Is there no way to search the traders?? like I can search my inventory?

[vocal mist]

You can search via the flea market interface

[glass viper]

that just shows me flea market searches

if I press traders again I just get the window with pics of all traders

[shrewd python]

just filter by trader offers only via the flea interface

[hidden seal]

still.. would be nice to have search in the main trader window

[past trench]

hi i need one ofz shell for the task but i cant find them have been spamming reserve checking tanks and rb-st 30 runs deep no luck anyone that can help

[hidden seal]

the most infalible way to find somethink in eft is... not needing one

[obtuse light]

hmm?

[hidden seal]

quoted wrong post sorry

[past trench]

yea that is what im starting to realize

but if anyone got a better route then the reserve please let me know

[glass viper]

thank you, now the flea market function is actually useful before 15

I want a scope for my M16A2 but cant figure out how to go about it

might not be doable before I have lvl 15 flea market I guess

[shrewd python]

if you can build the workbench you can use the nice gun modding UI, makes it way easier

[glass viper]

yeah thats what I just realized, back to hunting for the leatherman

[shrewd python]

you can just buy it

mechanic sells one

[glass viper]

thanks lol

[shrewd python]

those things are impossible to find

But the EKP from prapor is what I would go with

problem with m16 and m4 is the front iron sight often blocks optics

but until you can get a new gas block you're just kinda stuck with it
ekp sits pretty high though so it might not be blocked

[glass viper]

bought the ekp but says incoptaible

[shrewd python]

do you still have the carry handle on

[glass viper]

Dunno man

Sure I can access this cool looking modding menu now but I cant actually do anything, all parts have a red shopping cart on them, and can seem to remove or add anyth\ing

[shrewd python]

ah the m16a2 is weird
you can't remove the carry handle, you need something that mounts on it

[glass viper]

alright any suggestions? im just sick of iron sights would rather play hunt showdown in that case lol

[shrewd python]

until you level up using any m4 style gun is pretty hard

[shrewd python]

use pp-19 with dovetail ekp

that's what I do until I hit PK2 at level 13

or 14... i forget

[glass viper]

pp-19-01 and then just buy a dovetail and add?

yeah that actually worked thanks!

[shrewd python]

Since you can't get good ammo early on I like that thing cause it has very little recoil and is super cheap, you can just spray at the face
But if you find good 5.45 (BT, BP, BS) then you can use the ak74u from prapor with the ekp

Also you can switch reticles on that sight

most people use the chevron without the dot

[glass viper]

alright! Ammo boxes exist just to stack many in small slot or?

like the unopened boxes of ammo

[shrewd python]

I think the main point of them is just so they're easier to pick up than like a tiny bullet

they never save space

you can just unpack them once you get them

[weary sky]

ammo would be a bitch to find if it was loose rounds

[glass viper]

True

Struggling to see how Im gonna keep my hideout fueled

think I found fuel once

[idle basalt]

you only turn on fuel whenever you actually need to do something that requires it (or buy fuel)

[weary sky]

when you get bitcoin farm is only time it should be on 24/7

[minor crescent]

the new bitcoin code must be a joke

i though it was like 1 bitcoin

instead we got 3 blickys and many many disks

also why do the disk go at 720km/h T-T

[minor crescent]

oh yeah i forgot abt april jokes

[cursive prawn]

stop this

[glass viper]

yeah look at the new quest as well lol

[digital fossil]

how does killing a scav thats shooting at you work, a player scav just tried to kill me he missed his first couple shots and my shots hit first, i only engaged after he started shooting at me but my rep still went down considerably, do i have to be hit first inorder for it to count as a traitor scav kill?

[viral wharf]

he has to hit u first or have shot at another scav, otherwise u r considered the "bad" scav because he was shot first

[digital fossil]

man thats so dumb

[viral wharf]

yee

a lot of bad scavs "abuse" it shooting around other players to scare them get shot kill the inocent one, that is the bad scav to the game, and get scav rep

[digital fossil]

thats so scummy 😭

do you just kinda have to be scummy to do well in this game?

[viral wharf]

naa dont worry to much havent seen many do that shit a lot this wipe, and if u need help theres people that r usually prety nice in the comunity

[digital fossil]

yayy

[glass viper]

Does the blicky actually do any damage?, that quest seems impossible, but must for completionists

[wary umbra]

whats the best place to get contruction items i need nails and sewing kit FIR

[weary sky]

gz underground

[wary umbra]

ok thanks

[simple sigil]

trying to get this quest done. Whats a good map to use. iv tried a few but a lot of them are laggy for me

[hidden seal]

that must be done in shoreline

[wary umbra]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/shoreline thats decent map

but also just striaght run to the terminal use button and run away

[hidden seal]

[simple sigil]

ty ty

[ancient thorn]

is reshalla spawning on all 3 possible locations ? or dorms only

[pliant gate]

its random honestly mostly run into him at stronghold rarely dorms

[tropic halo]

is this game worth buying

be honest looks hard but it also looks very fun

[cursive prawn]

hi!! welcome to OEFT!

i would say its 100% worth it! i absolutely love the game

sorry i cant elaborate much im currently in raid enjoying it lol

[mild lily]

Its hard, its pain in ass, but you always want to go back to Tarkov, its like your ex, you hate it, but think about it

Anyway, i dunno where to write, but im strugling with Assasment part 1, any tips? i hate that map

[tropic halo]

imma get it

screw it

[mild lily]

its a good game, i come back to it always

[marsh marlin]

Is this good for customs scav run? :D

I freakin love looting corpses and leftovers

[tropic halo]

i mean would anyone be willing to help me

[mild lily]

I would drop u some gear but im poor as fuck, where u from?

[tropic halo]

ion want gear i just wanna learn in from tx bro

im

[dawn pine]

where are the goons at atm?

[mild lily]

Meeted them hour ago on Lighthouse

[dawn pine]

please tell me you kept the 7.62 mdr

[dawn pine]

good

i dont want to meet them on customs

nope nada

as i fear them

[mild lily]

i got disconected after fucking killing them

[dawn pine]

oof

[marsh marlin]

Yeah why? I already have 2 of them, its build from boss right? So player who died with it killed boss

[mild lily]

arent black MDR are better than yellow?

[dawn pine]

its just a rare rifle

[dawn pine]

ircc the orange mdr fires 5.56 nato

the black fires 7.62x51

[mild lily]

i can help ya a bit after i do my quest

[mild lily]

full auto?

[tropic halo]

thats cool bro my game is still dowloading so just take ur time

[marsh marlin]

you mean MDR in general or this exact build? Because tbh i find goons on customs like all the time. I play for 1 week and already killed them 3 times and one time found this gun on dead PMC

[dawn pine]

mhm

[mild lily]

im not fan of them tbh, costs too much, i can buy 4 ak for one

[dawn pine]

yeah

[dawn pine]

eh

ima fan of expensive weapons

they are better than cheapones and will serve you better

[tidal lagoon]

the mdr requires almost no modding compared to an ak

[mild lily]

im poor bro, im buying small ak amd trying to do that ass assasment

[mild lily]

the modding of ak costs 40k at best, while im not gonna take mdr to raid with shittiest attachments

[tidal lagoon]

i was thinking about actual modding but ye u can get a shitty ak with some mods for that price probably yea

[mild lily]

i take good shit to labs or labirynt, to scared and shit aim in normal raid

[hidden seal]

funny.. I do not hate my ex.. .. and do not think about her

[mild lily]

Its like

[hidden seal]

it is not like MDR has many slots to upgrade. Just one scope and done

[mild lily]

ehh, wrong example

[hidden seal]

@tiny siren muhuahuah finnaly I open a twitch drop I had forgotetn in my stacch.. and it gives me 2 lions! FINNALY

[tiny siren]

Did you need them for the living high task?

I swear, I couldn't hit reserve without tripping over Glucky. Now I need him for Eraser and I can't find him anywhere

Also, hey, is the armored train whistle broken?

I am just never hearing it for some reason

[tiny siren]

Finally find Glucky when he lasers me directly in the face on my first peek

No voicelines, slow walked over cause of exactly that possibility, didn't even see him, just the tracer

I had like 100 rounds of M80A1 on me still, too. 🙁

[hidden seal]

I limit myself to 60 rounds of very good ammo

[tiny siren]

I'd been getting cocky

[hidden seal]

and more 60 of Scav level stuff.

cause if I need more than 60 good rounds I know I am goign to get !@#!#!& in the rear

[tiny siren]

Normally I'd bring M80 or even BCP, but I've usually had more issues with running out of ammo than dying lately, so I figured the higher tier stuff was the better choice. WHEEEELP

[hidden seal]

I am still very ... cowardly.. so As soon as I kill 1 pmc and do 1 task I start to move to exfill

that if I am not dead already 😛

[cinder coral]

Nikita is Russian Kojima btw

[next nimbus]

does he know

[peak pasture]

anyone have any tips for learning the maps faster

[next nimbus]

have a map up on another screen and constantly just be checking where you are and learn points of reference

[meager bramble]

has scav loot been buffed this event?

I'm getting a bunch of good stuff

[toxic trench]

did they patch the tech where you can grab the case thats in 114 through the window?

[jolly vine]

how to unlock reserve? cant find any videos on yt for it

[true osprey]

Just do the Tour twink

[abstract harness]

yes
you might be able to boost on a friend’s head, idr

[sonic iron]

I need a gun please

[cerulean lance]

any think they can help with me stacking bags efficiently?

[humble otter]

looks like it's time for you to scav a bit

[humble otter]

don't collect bags that can't fit any other bag in them, i'd sell em or use em up if that's the case

[cinder wharf]

Hello! Strange thing - I've just raised my pack edition, start PVE game and kill other player in PVE mode. How it is possible?

I thought that PVP is disabled in PvE mode..

[true osprey]

What did I just read

The pmc's that appear on pve are all bots if that's what you are asking

[cinder wharf]

aaah ok thanks!

[floral dawn]

Anyone doing terminal savior ending?

[mild lily]

sell skull mask and other shit, buy Baby Ak, try to do tasks

[true osprey]

Why does the ending matter

[old notch]

i am new and very broke and my stash is filled with random junk and guns that i don’t have mags and ammo for. what should i do?

[weary sky]

sell all your shit

buy starter shit

[old notch]

like literally all of it ?

[clever wigeon]

Not sure if this is the best place to ask.
I bought tarkov on steam. Not realizing you could buy from the website. Gonna assume theres no way to migrate from current steam account w/ current exp and stash to a tarkov website bought account?

[tidal lagoon]

u can try t oask in #community-support they know more, but im like 99% sure its a no

but like u dont miss out on anything really by having it on steam

[clever wigeon]

Yeah im pretty sure too. I guess if I can achieve the same stash size and pocket size as the unheard edition thru quests I'll be okay but if not I'll have to start over

[tidal lagoon]

you can get the pockets through a dumbass questline that requires 15btc in the end, the max stash size u can get by just playing is 10x68, unheard gets 10x72

[clever wigeon]

No gif perms.

Time to grind I guess.

[elder dune]

Any appreciable difference between Val and VSS?

[wary umbra]

you can but the stock attachment on val but that doesnt make diffrence

both are equally good

[sour wasp]

You are correct in your assumption. You would lose all of your progress.

[sour wasp]

I don't understand and could clarify this:..." you can get the pockets through a dumbass questline that requires 15btc." ~Thanks~

[tidal lagoon]

u do a questline and the final quest requires u to hand in 15 bitcoins to get the extra pocket slots that unheard gets

[serene spade]

im getting constant connection loss helpppp i need to get in the raid

[ancient thorn]

where tf do i find these badboys, i need like 5 of them fir

[woeful spruce]

Techcrates, toolboxes, i find most of those on interchange, the big wooden crates on customs fortress or construction sites on streets

Make sure to also look at daily quest rewards maybe youll get lucky

[limber rain]

can someone help me? I dont see what I need to do, tutorials tell me to craft the greencard, but its not there ( the one shown there is just the normal green labs card)

I just had to restart my game twice :)

[dawn pine]

anyone have some tips on which weapons i should use for this task?

the bolt action rifles are just driving me insane with how inacurate they are

even upclose

[tidal lagoon]

mxlr

none of the bolt actions are really that inaccurate

[dawn pine]

okay

i diduse the mosin thing

and it was going so far

and getting somewhat close to the pmcs are somewhat of a pain

[tidal lagoon]

no other bolt action but the mxlr is really worth using for those quests since it has such a high fire rate

[dawn pine]

okay

should make my fights against the pmcs upclose easier

i dont want to go to factory as i dont want to encounter tagilla

so ground zero is my only option

[tidal lagoon]

u can just run away from him

factory will make it way faster to do

[cursive prawn]

factory!! 🏭

[dawn pine]

oh yeah true

where do you tend to encounter him the most?

[tidal lagoon]

honestly its pretty much random outside the spawn areas

[dawn pine]

okay

[tidal lagoon]

he will probably be in the main open areas but can wander around into the offices and such

and will chase almost anywhere

[dawn pine]

interesting

[dusky lichen]

Looking to join a group to help me get back into the game. Have not played for years
If there a channel or area to look for groups here I may have missed it

[ancient thorn]

is there a updated gunsmith questline guide after the attachments reworks

[tidal lagoon]

wiki should be fine still

[fiery moat]

guys

is there a problem with my game

[errant owl]

what do i need to do to unlock to great heights questline i swear i cant seem to get it

[fiery moat]

i played labs 9 rounds in a row and escaped all, realized i could do that one achievement to survive 10 raids in a row, i keep going to factory, killing ppl and extracting, it still says 9, nothing changes, and i dont get the achievement

cannot get "ready for anything" my "current escape streak" on pmc keeps saying 9

first one is my overall stat and second one is pmc stat

[toxic trench]

do i need the phased array element for any task?

[gritty gate]

no

[ember veldt]

anybody wanna help me do some tasks?

how does one unlock the mechanic

[tidal lagoon]

do the tour storyline

[stone tartan]

Im a little lost on acutally meeting mr kerman, rn I have falling skies almost done and I'm on the descions to keep or give the case. But I just failed a objective on the unheard chapter because I couldnt get in touch with elktronik, what do I do so I'm able to talk to kerman

[cyan frost]

I have a bunch of dog tags but I can't hand any over for Tour?

[stone tartan]

They have to be found in raid I'm guessing and prob on you or in your inv

[cyan frost]

How would a dog tag not be found in raid?

[stone tartan]

If you died with it in your pouch

[cyan frost]

I haven't died for the past 10 raids.

I keep 'em in a tags case in my gamma

I just want to go to Reserve

Oh, wait, I get the issue.
I'll just go to Factory and kill more guys.

[steel forum]

thats the issue you brought them into raid so it lost its found in raid status

[cyan frost]

ah

[brave forge]

did they fix the trick where you can buy scope rings to buy scopes under leveled?

[bleak tiger]

Builds

[short bay]

so just a joke

[glass viper]

And where do I access that?

[weary sky]

do you have workbench built?

[glass viper]

yes

[weary sky]

right click weapon. edit build. top left is your saved builds

[tiny dew]

which ones can i throw to skier that i wont really need later?

[lime pond]

keep the packj of nails, you will need alot of them

mscissors u will need tooo

[tiny dew]

thanks

[glass viper]

Do arena kills count towards achievements and such? for example meele pmc kills

[marsh marlin]

Can someone tell me how can i open that "roll" menu when i want to use healing? Like i press 4 and it rolls down and let me choose which limb/part i want to heal first? I have currently continuous healing ON, does it work with that too?

I think same mechanic is roll menu for choosing magazine for gun

[glass viper]

Cant see any of my previous saved builds by doing this, top left is just "new build" "open" etc

[tidal lagoon]

no arena kills dont count toward any achievement on main game

[tidal lagoon]

the hotbar slot needs to be bound to release

[marsh marlin]

So i need to either have that combo of press 4 for heavy bleed and release 4 for healing, or release hotbar to choose, one of them? I cant combine it?

[tidal lagoon]

wdym combine it, press & release 4 does kinda combine the heavy bleed and medkit into 1 button

for scroll heal the requirement is just that the slot the medkit is on is set to release

[marsh marlin]

I dont get it, when i have 4 press heavy bleed and 4 release heal.. how can i combine dropoff menu to release too?

because when i release button 4 it only start to heal, not opening any menu

this is my heal bind, its on 4

[tidal lagoon]

if u put the medkit on slot 4 then hold 4 then scroll it should show the menu

[chrome crown]

does anyone know why the oli cash register key doesn't spawn over this desk? i didn't find it in like more than 100+ scav runs

(it spawns on the other side, but there's nothing)

[alpine sphinx]

Try doing a pmc run

Most quests require you to do them in pmc raids

[chrome crown]

I remember passing by on a few pmc raids

[alpine sphinx]

It can be in the offices too so check them too

[feral lintel]

how do i fix this

the game is not on i tried restarting the launcher aswell

[glass viper]

am not able to pick magazine by holding down R, is that supposed to work?

Man Tagilla scares the shit out of me every time

[undone drum]

U hold r and scroll mouse wheel?

[glass viper]

y reload just start immediately no time to pick anything

[undone drum]

But do you scroll mouse wheal immediately when pressing R?

[stark relic]

is the colt carbine buffer tube or the atp buffer tube better for a m4 build?

[undone drum]

do you have a workbench?

[toxic girder]

Hey guys, I'm back from many years away from the game. I always played solo, and would like to find 1 or 2 other more experienced players to play with. I'm from BC Canada, hoping to find someone from my area. Where would be the best place to ask?

[cursive prawn]

hi!! welcome to OEFT!

finding such a specific player will be challenging, id widen your search at least temporarily. but you can find lots of live players in #lfg-info whether you play PvE or PvP

[toxic girder]

Thanks!

[pastel obsidian]

I sent you a DM

[shrewd python]

I think it's the multiple exclamation marks that makes your new greeting so creepy

[vocal mist]

mhm

[cursive prawn]

hi!! welcome to OEFT!

[shrewd python]

something about it is just very ChatGPT

[cursive prawn]

it’s just 3 total and most ppl really like it so i think it’s just you

maybe ency a little

i mean it started as a bit but people liked it that’s why i continued

[shrewd python]

people would still like it (probably more) if it didn't seem fake as hell

idk, just my 2 cents

[cursive prawn]

i understand what you’re saying, but an authentic greeting requires nuance and a difference for every single person. there’s a lot of people who join… i needed to standardize it and make it seem like it’s just something i do.

every single greeting is the same and if i can answer a question at the same time it’s even better

i could go like hiii welcome to OEFT!

[shrewd python]

Fair enough, I just don't think your standardized greeting is better with that many exclamation points
just seems like creepy corpo speak

[shrewd python]

yea that seems better

[cursive prawn]

that was kinda the bit at first but it kinda just got outta hand, i didn’t expect there to be so many to greet and half the time im in raid 😭

[cursive prawn]

i will try the new one out

is that okay @vocal mist

i might adjust it slightly but i can try something less official or corporate

[weary sky]

still need?

i know the sherpa program sometimes has long waiting times

[fierce arrow]

why am I loading to the game slower than my friend even tho I have better PC and it's dropping my PMC without countdown?

[astral glen]

Your hard drive might be slower, and your RAM

[fierce arrow]

SSD m.2 and 6400 ddr5, we literally have the same hard drive

[unborn sand]

Normal in tarkov that you have good games till 1 at night on the weekend and then its unplayable one shotting from ppl who got 200 hours and better hear than me people scraming in the mic an onetap me after coming from a corner which angle i held .

[cinder jungle]

i need help on shoreline its a nightmare and i have no clue how to navigate it and i kinda suck with the wiki maps

[ancient thorn]

do hideout crafts come out as fir ?

[fair flare]

yes

[ancient thorn]

was the atomic defense mask always tier 3 ?

[gentle perch]

Is anyone here with super good stash organising skills? its gotten out of hand haha

[shrewd python]

you prob just have to sell more than you'd like

[bleak tiger]

Got brought down in line with other ones. All of them now are lvl3

[vocal mist]

I suppose

sidenote, have you ever wondered why is it OEFT and not EFTO?

[dry hatch]

Anyone know how much they increase the area for The Huntsman Path - Secured Perimeter in the last patch?

[frigid finch]

is there a new wipe coming soon?

[vocal mist]

no, never actually

This character that you play on is permanent and will never wipe

[cursive prawn]

hmmm

wait ...

[vocal mist]

huh

[humble otter]

[vocal mist]

[proper wadi]

my first run in tarkov with a real kit thor crv has lv4 plates and mags filled with pbp and ap6.3 if i die i will prob uninstall lol

[meager sparrow]

Hey Guys so I'm new I played this game once before but I wanna know for the life of me how do I do the objective

[astral glen]

What objective?

[meager sparrow]

Any objective like I don't have map knowledge to really understand what I need to do

[unkempt egret]

Wiki has detailed guides for most quests and detailed interactive maps (there are other third party maps available per preference eg mapgenie).
Do an offline raid or two to get your bearings on the map of choice then follow wiki instructions, having a second monitor with a map/wiki open helps a lot.
Scav for money/almost risk free exploration and try to focus on one map at a time untill you know your way around

[hidden seal]

first thing.. learn maps.. be it runnign scar or practice mode

as it is nearly impossible to complete anythign until you can reliably find yourself

[zealous oriole]

can someone help me with the ref to high heights mission im on pt 4 but if lose one game the quest will reset

[ashen crow]

can some1 help me with my settings ; just got my pc back and they reset completely.

[cinder coral]

What are your specs?

[ashen crow]

ryzen 7 5700g for cpu
3070 gpu
32 gb ram

[cinder coral]

I'd recommend running most things on medium, i had a similar setup to yours previously

Then you can inch some settings higher afterwards

[ashen crow]

what ab postfx

[cinder coral]

I dont run postfx

[ashen crow]

like idk any good ones

[cinder coral]

Thats up to you and your monitor settings honestly.

[ashen crow]

hmmm

okay, thank u

[cinder coral]

Lmk if it runs well

DLSS or FSR are good things to use btw

I'd personally recommend quality if your fps is stable enough

[glass viper]

So im trying to figure out the controls, using the mpx in the start, laser and flashlight.

T turns off both, shift T cycles between 4 modes, but it seemingly only turns laser on off

I mean control T

[astral glen]

Laser would only have two modes

On and off

[glass viper]

while 2-3 presses does nothing

Yeah but can I not have only laser or only flashlight?

[astral glen]

Some tactical devices have multiple modes, like IR flashlight, IR laser, flashlight, laser, both combined

[astral glen]

Sure, but you’d need to take the flashlight off the gun and then turn the laser on and then put the light back on the gun

The easier option is just purchase a tactical device with both a laser and a flashlight on it and then just toggle between them

[glass viper]

Ah alright

but control t seems to have 4 modes, one of them turns on laser while 3 does nothing?

[astral glen]

You can’t toggle individual devices that are attached, if you switch between modes you do it to all devices on your gun

A laser only has one active mode

[glass viper]

So 3 contorls + t clicks to turn it on if its off

[astral glen]

What device are you using?

I think you’re over complicating this to be frank

Inspect the gun and tell us which device you’re referring to

If a device is switched off, then toggling the mode will not turn it on

You likely are just using a device with multiple modes and one of them is an IR light/laser

Which you’re not going to see without night vision because it’s IR

[glass viper]

For sure I just want to get how it all works lol, its just the mpx you pick up from the corpse in the tutorial

[astral glen]

Yeah I haven’t done that tutorial since Nov 15 2025

Please inspect the gun

And then take a picture of it

[astral glen]

Yes as I said, the mode that you’re thinking is “off” is the infrared stuff

You have a visible red laser and an IR laser, both of these also have modes with an IR flashlight enabled

You can’t see these IR features without night vision devices

[glass viper]

ah okay thanks. confused me cuz the mpistol could toggle to only either on with T, but I see now its on 1 device

is clicking mouse wheel supposed to let you instantly inspect things? wont work for me

[astral glen]

No that’s how you examine items that are unknown

Anything that has a ? And a blacked out icon can be examined

[tiny dew]

The tutorial gives you an ap rounds mag with this mpx btw

Very sweet

[proper sphinx]

hi guys, silly question but my friends load in almost minutes faster than me, what are some general reasons I can get faster loading times / performance? I don't know anything about computers.

[true osprey]

You should probably provide some info about your setup

[proper sphinx]

where can I find this? thank you also, I didn't think about that

[true osprey]

Get familiar with dxdiag

[proper sphinx]

okay, I'll look it up online. Thank you!!

[ember wolf]

hey i had to delete tarkov for some other games and I'm trying to get it back but anytime i try downloading it that app says it is calculating time and stays a 0 percent forever what do i do

never mind my PC was being a POS

[fickle cairn]

best places to find raiders on labs?

[glass viper]

damn pve mode is kinda whack, shot a pmc at moderate range and his first reaction was to crouch and start healing

[tidal lagoon]

they are pretty much all over the place, just run around pressing all the buttons

the big hanger gate buttons can make them spawn inside the hangar gate tho but not always

[fickle cairn]

ty sir

[tiny dew]

can the main story missions be done on scav? for example if i extract as scav from customs will it count the objective as done?

[next nimbus]

no

only objectives that need items like skiers 5 building materials can be retrieved in a scav

[tiny dew]

alright thank you

[next nimbus]

yeah they had to dumb down the AI for PvE so local machines can run it and their servers dont get overloaded

[tiny dew]

is this irl time or tarkov time?

[tidal lagoon]

irl

[next nimbus]

arent those timers bugged

like they dont countdown at all

[tidal lagoon]

idk i always heal

[tiny dew]

ty

[next nimbus]

every time i get an injury when i die and get off for the night it always stays till i heal it

wouldnt be suprised if its bugged

[crimson thicket]

your health will regen but things like broken limbs dont fix

[next nimbus]

ik the health does but is it just fractures or do bleeds not heal either

[ember veldt]

somebody want to help me do some quests?

[next nimbus]

#pvp-lfg

[glass viper]

what does the "tactical device activation mode" keybind do? default T+B

[next nimbus]

it switches the mode of devices on your gun

like a flashlight laser combo for example will swap between having flashlight to flashlight+ laser or just laser

[glass viper]

no thats "switch tactical device mode"

[next nimbus]

oh

no idea then

[glass viper]

different keybind

[next nimbus]

let me boot up tarkov and find out rq

[glass viper]

trying to set everything up, figuring out which ones I can have on some obscure button like the unload chamber keybind

cant see any time I would ever use that, except maybe with certain shotguns in some niche situation

[next nimbus]

i use it to unload ammo out of bolt action rifiles

[glass viper]

Why would you need that? I mean any situation where I load/unload mags I might as well be right clicking in inventory

[next nimbus]

because you cant drag the bullet out of the gun anymore in the menu of the gun

for some reason

so using unload chamber is the only way of getting the bullet out

[glass viper]

So in the rare case you found better ammo you would use it before reloading?

[next nimbus]

no its more for when i shoot a guy with a bolt action and he has good ammo so i want every last round

[next nimbus]

this would be another use case but i usually bring the best ammo in the game when im using bolties

[glass viper]

where do you have it?

seems like the kind of keybinding to have on fnumber key or something

[next nimbus]

i think ctrl r

wait no thats my emergency reload

it is set to L

[glass viper]

how about the unload mag keybind? is there any scenario you would need that

[next nimbus]

i found out what tactical device activation mode does

it turns your flashlight into a pressure switch

so instead of toggle to turn your light on its hold

[glass viper]

ahh okay thanks, so thats probably the only use, kinda neat tho

[next nimbus]

whenever you shot bullets out of every mag and you need to reload the mag with the most bullets

so you unload so there isnt any ammo in the gun then reload and it selects the mag with most ammo

so say you have 3 60-mags and one is loaded with 46 rounds, 12, and 4 bullets

if you just reload the game will select the next highest ammo count

and if you already have the 46 round mag in then itll swap out for the 12

this is exaggerated tho for explanation because if the difference in ammo count is that great you would know the 2 other mags are almost empty so you would just check the mag normally

normally i would do that if i wanted the extra couple bullets

just to be safe

[glass viper]

alright, think I would be in the tab menu sorting shit way before im in a situation where I would use that

[next nimbus]

yeah i dont see many people doing that at all

this is just a me thing that i do

[glass viper]

how about fold/unfold stock? is there a reason to do that beyond inventory management?

[next nimbus]

nah theres no reason for that one

only real reason i would think of a use is if you have a long gun and found urself in cqc and didnt want to get barrel stuffed so you fold the stock so the gun is smaller

but the chance that even makes a difference is marginal

especially cuz you throw away the stats the stock gives you when you fold it

[tidal lagoon]

idk if u got an answer but its a rather useless bind that just changes the activation mode from toggle to hold, so instead of pressing T to turn it on and then T to turn it off u just press T and the device is on until u release it

[glass viper]

trying to remove all double click keybinds, just have it on drop backpack and meele weapon now. Is it bad if I put quick draw on 1 and just not use regular sidearm?

[tidal lagoon]

its like toggle aim vs hold

[next nimbus]

yeah i figured it out and told him somewhere in this wall of text lol

[tidal lagoon]

ah bet

[next nimbus]

i was curios too cuz ive never seen that keybind before lol

[glass viper]

Yeah I could see it be useful to flash someone with flashlight just before peak but duno think regular works

[tidal lagoon]

yea ig its kinda nice but never really used it myself i prefer toggle binds for most things

[glass viper]

How about sidearm quick draw? cant I just always use that over regular? and remover double tap to remove delay

[tidal lagoon]

yes but it uses stamina

[next nimbus]

sidearm quick draw automatically activates whenever your main gun jams

so there really isnt a need to have a bind for it

unless you run out of ammo or something

[tidal lagoon]

u also kinda shouldnt be running pistols

[next nimbus]

i bring a sawed off shotgun with me in my pocket

comes in handy

[tidal lagoon]

crazy

[next nimbus]

people dont expect 2 shells of flechette after trying to push once they hear a gun click

had a dude run at me inside a room in dorms after he heard me run out of ammo

whipped that shit out all over his face

[glass viper]

just empty slot for less weight? watchu mean

[next nimbus]

yeah most people just bring a primary

unless they need another gun for a specific reason

[glass viper]

thats the second time killa one shots me when I enter the mall, what are the chances, cant he spawn all over it?

I find he is standing in the ikea entrance way often

[tidal lagoon]

they are just kinda useless

u should always be using a proper gun if u can afford it and the task doesnt demand otherwise

[acoustic ermine]

spawns over entire top and bottom floor just not basement

i often spot him top floor or idea tho so yeah it might be a higher chance of him being in idea than anywhere else

[ancient thorn]

is there a thread or something like it regarding the "is this a reference" quest, like explaining all the said references

[mortal shadow]

how to learn every map quickly??

[torn rapids]

play the game

watch the game

[ancient thorn]

open map on second monitor and play the shit out of the map

do every quest you have on said map

[mortal shadow]

i have some quest in woods but i don know the map

i tried but i died and cant even see the shooter

[ancient thorn]

woods is pretty straight forward, is a big forest with a giant mountain in the middle

[ancient thorn]

thats pretty most 80% of the game on all maps

[mortal shadow]

damn

[ancient thorn]

until you play like 3000 hours and get some more gamesense

[mortal shadow]

i started plating this game 2 weeks ago lol

guess ive to put some time in practice mode then

[tiny dew]

just go from spawn to extract a couple of times in practice until you get the hang of the map

[ancient thorn]

nah no point in going in practice, if anything run some scavs, keep scaving the map you want to learn, scavs are way less punishing

[humble otter]

just keep in mind pmc extracts are different then scavs

[lavish kindle]

Is it possible to put a 50 round mag on a MDR?

[ancient thorn]

wich one

[lavish kindle]

751

[true osprey]

Can easily check by pressing edit build on the gun

For future reference

[lavish kindle]

thank u.. ive always gone online to try to look

Ive lost all my good gear trying to survive Labryinth....grigin impact grenade and half clip of BS still didnt kill boss before he killed me

[noble wave]

labyrinth tagilla doesnt die from nades

they literally do nothing to him

no matter how many u throw

[ancient thorn]

does arena uses the same regions as eft ?

[lavish kindle]

wow...ive thrown alot thinking i never hit him..hahah

[astral glen]

No

[ancient thorn]

is there a way to select regions for arena ?

[astral glen]

Yeah, on the main menu of Arena, go to the settings

[ancient thorn]

inside the game ?

didnt find anything in the launcher

[astral glen]

Yes in the game.

I said in the main menu of Arena, not the launcher

[shut trail]

i bought the game couple weeks ago, any tips to start good? any tips to start at all? haha

[peak dirge]

Hey! I'm lvl 19, i'm starting to get the basics from the game, but I'm having issues w PvP build wise. Would someone be able to lend me a quick hand? I would appreciate it a lot 🙂

[twin geyser]

what aspect are you having issues with?

[peak dirge]

I'm aware on how ammo works, pen stats and everything. But being lvl 19 i'm kinda locked in what can I really use. When a task gave a decent built weapon (SR-25 from Prapor as an example) I had no issue w PvP, but when I run the low-level builds I found in Reddit, I lose 9 out of 10 times. So I was hoping someone could help me learn a couple mid-level builds to see if I can improve

I'm aware it's not about the weapon but the ammo, and I try to get the best available always, but still even when I aim for head / thorax, or legs / arms if I see too much armour, i get raped hard

[foggy ibex]

bro ive been in vc every single fucking day can somebody please just come 5 stack arena for a singular fucking match bro i need melee kills

holy fuck this is hell

[twin geyser]

so there are a couple ways to stack the deck in your favor
Shotguns with pirannah are really good bang for buck
UMP is a surefire way to get good damage in
unfortunatly you kind of have to out skill/rat them because if you are doing like PVP PVP
its going to be hard
check out the AUG and G36... Those are supressed good builds for like 85k

SVT is a cheatcode if you can find/buy one

[peak dirge]

AUG worked super well for me. I try to avoid PvP to make missions to unlock the full flea market at 25, but I always find some chad w a long range scope that singe taps me on the face even when I managed to get Ronin's. I'm starting to burn out because i'm tangled in long missions where you need to extract after filling them, and it's being impossible

[wispy needle]

for the arena free trial? do you get access to custom presets or is that only a paid thing?

[peak dirge]

Most are PvP or force me to enter known PvP areas like the mall, resort and dorms

[hallow forge]

run reserve scav and loot ammo spawns

you dcan get crazy amounts of 5.45 bp

[peak dirge]

Don't have reserve available, I think i'm stuck haha

[hallow forge]

oh yeah you need dogtags...

[peak dirge]

I tried going on team, but ig that for being low lvl I always get refused (or bcs my stats)

[hallow forge]

wanna run a few and try to get those dog tags?

[peak dirge]

sure!

appreciate it

[twin geyser]

Lol
Do somr scav runs on factory

what's up ppl, jumping back into tarkov after a while and trying to actually learn the maps this time lol
i’m decent at gunplay/survival stuff but still get lost af and die not knowing where extracts are

hi PVE or PVP? i can help you 🙂

[jade tartan]

im in grave danger without a sherpa if anyone wants the position/s

Wait it out mate for abit let everyone fight and move away then just go in and get it done

[tiny dew]

^ true

Im new too and my survival rate increased when i started to just take it slower

Only sprint from cover to cover, sit still like 5min at the start and it should be fine

[brave forge]

which of these paths is the best to go down for PC 3?

[hidden seal]

first .. knwo the map. plas as scav enought hat you know it very well

when hide for 3 min with that map knowledge you have then go for the objective. AVOIDING MAIN STREET

aff dead without seeign anything at 30 second of mathc.. the least fun one can have in this game

[hidden seal]

DAMM YOU GOONS!

now I am low on 5.56 ammo..

[willow hinge]

ideally a mix of both. id like to pvp but would like to learn the maps a bit in pve first

[marsh marlin]

been playing a lot of rainbow six they added solid snake

i like metal gear

i want the defender dmrs nerfed into the next planet

and maybe remove the bosg and smg12

[marsh marlin]

Do i ALT F4 this or how this works?

Is it going to start eventually or i can get bugged in loading?

First time it takes this long

[shrewd python]

how long has it been at awaiting session start

[marsh marlin]

dunno like 4 minutes

maybe 5

[shrewd python]

yea def alt-f4

haven't seen that bug in a while

[cinder coral]

Yeah alt+f4 is the only way to get past that iirc

[swift python]

Dawg just got this game yesterday racked 10hrs so far. I keep dying lol

[vocal lagoon]

I just got it today and same idk how to find extract and I just keep getting killed

[mint light]

nothings gonna change until atleast 500

[mint light]

everyone uses third party maps on like websites and the wiki

[hidden seal]

10H is very very start. Play as scav and practice mode to learn the maps

You need at least 10 hours in each map to know the BASIC of the map

[swift python]

@vocal lagoon lol same man. I gotta youtube the exits on the fly when im raiding. And some when I arrive you need rubles or a buddy to extract. The long walk back gets me killed

@hidden seal damn I've been jumping around the maps really. Prob why im always lost

[hidden seal]

you have zero chance of doing anythgin until you learn the map. Open a copy of the map in your cell phoen or second monitor

and play scav and practice mode (offline) to learn the map

[swift python]

@hidden seal you right. Plus I've been just raiding and rushing to look for loot. I can see my faults in doing that

[hidden seal]

you will NOT survive raids until you know where the extracts are and how to get to them and what are the stupid and non stupid paths to there

[swift python]

@hidden seal Know any good 3rd party maps i can use?

[peak pasture]

Any tips for completing the kill target with Aug for ref task

[hidden seal]

just search in google EFT nameofmap map 3d (3d maps are easier to learn on start)

like 300 , i have some uncompleted quests, but yea . just wondering if i should save them for something specifically

[peak pasture]

i would say level him up first cuz his trades get better but if you dont care about that then is dosnt really matter

just whatever you think you would use the most

Best return is probably keys

You do need lega medal too tho

Okay, thanks

Timer starts when you receive it in the mail

[glass viper]

Do npc scavengers use extraction? do they check mags? hard to tell who is npc sometimes

[bleak tiger]

Wait they don't check mags, they can't jump or tilt their heads

[glass viper]

Alright good to know, then that one was a player lol

[marsh marlin]

Does this stim even have any purpose? It seems like small skill leveling boost but thats it? Does even anyone use it?

[undone drum]

just for crafting

[willow hinge]

thats ok i am too tho lol

[elfin sinew]

Some people use it in terminal to hit max strength if they haven't already got it

but for the main part is just used to make more sj6's

[alpine abyss]

I Need help with pvp and i dont know if theres a kind soul willing to help me out with that. i always die lol

im struggling a lot to do anything since pvp is something i dont know how to do very well and i dont know if anyone would be willing to help me out with that

[desert raven]

Asvenz i got 2k i could help you where do you stuggle most?

[alpine abyss]

mostly pvp in general lmfao

[desert raven]

like when to take a fight?

yea i could help you man hop in a call

[potent ember]

I lowkey need help but not w pvp

[alpine abyss]

im in 4 man #5 if you wanna jump in

[desert raven]

jake whats your issue

[potent ember]

exfill location

[daring plover]

do cultist only spawn on the right side of stronghold or can they spawn infront of crackhouse?

[potent ember]

i am really good at pvp i think i killed like 5 pmcs and 2 player scavs before exfill time ran out

[woeful spruce]

They can spawn spawn around crackhouse yea

[daring plover]

so if scavs are coming from crackhouse they arent spawned there right theyre on the other side, same applies vice versa?

[inner isle]

This might sound odd but. Any recommended places to find storage cases? Im rly struggling with storage with only one weapon case and one scav junk box

[bleak tiger]

Only storage box you can find is ammo box. Rest of them you have to barter for it or buy it

[inner isle]

U can find weapon cases too no?

[woeful spruce]

For that you need to open a map form the wiki or mapgenie on your phone or second monitor, doubble tao "o" to see extracts you have in that raid and navinage like that. Its gonna take some time

[potent ember]

Thanks man

there are maps???

awsome

[bleak tiger]

No

[potent ember]

hey what is a good gun to run on woods

traders level 1

nvm what about ground zero?

[tiny dew]

any, really

with the ammo you have you are killing mainly scavs or other low level players anyway

[potent ember]

OMFG I MADE IT TO A EXFILL ON ACCIDENT LETS GOOOOO

sry

[civic sundial]

lvl looking for some help DM

[spice bay]

Guys, I need help. Against the Conscience - Part 1 for ref not showing up for me

[woeful spruce]

[willow hinge]

God damn I hate interchange

[next nimbus]

Real

[cinder coral]

Nikita is Russian Kojima btw

[tropic badger]

guys. how to fix this? ( im not using mods, im on pvp so dont mention it)

[tropic badger]

the scavs are unlooteble and make damaged sound

[tropic badger]

bro i js killed boss and cant loot him

[hidden seal]

think only on next raid... it is not a common bug

[willow hinge]

anyone know why prapor is locked for me? no trading /tasks

[compact wind]

have you done the tour taskline? it unlocks traders as you go

[hidden seal]

because you need to unlock him

by progressign tour until you exit factory

exit factory and give mechanic 2 fir weapons

[willow hinge]

[brave forge]

Is buying red rebal worth it for me? Im level 25, I have almost 3m rubles and about 7 kits worth of gear. I am going to start running reserve and shoreline a lot more for PC tasks.

[hidden seal]

it is useful.. but remembe ryou need the paracord as well

[brave forge]

True

[crimson thicket]

I won't go reserve without red rebel

[brave forge]

Cool ty

[slender plover]

Last time I tried to find cultists I got killed by a grenade launcher across the river on customs

[idle basalt]

what am i doing wrong? for GS3

[tidal lagoon]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Gunsmith_-_Part_3

[drowsy coral]

i followed it

[tidal lagoon]

u have the wrong stock

[drowsy coral]

thats what i have but for some reason i cant give it to mechanic

[drowsy coral]

it did not mention it in the wiki, thanks for the information 🤝

[tidal lagoon]

you need to look at the inspect view

there it shows the finished build, the shopping list only shows the additional items you need to buy after buying the gun and since the stock come with the gun it wont tell u to get it

[vocal mist]

exactly, it mentions the stock by saying

[dreamy sierra]

Wuh.

[midnight ingot]

press pass

[dreamy sierra]

Oh, I see it now.

[midnight ingot]

aye its wiki link for it

[dreamy sierra]

It was bugged earelier.

[dreamy sierra]

Any of y'all wanna VC?

[marsh marlin]

Okay how does this make sense? So i craft kalok with kalok or what am I missing?

[idle basalt]

it just refills it

[elder dune]

It has 3 uses when you drop to 2 or 1 you can refill it back to 3/3 at the price of one water bottle. That’s it

If you bring calok and water into raid, drink water down to 1/60 and use calok twice, it’s a good deal kinda

Any tips for doing CO-OP extracts? PMCs keep killing me even when using VOIP

[drifting canopy]

Hey boys quick question : 0 water & 0 energy used to instant kill you after some time, does it still do that ? I survived like 8 minutes healing with medkits last night and was scared I'd just fall over any second

[glass viper]

zb-016 at woods, there is a green flere but nothing happens when im inside? tried standing all over, no extract timer

[light stag]

do you have the extract ?

[tidal lagoon]

it has never done that in my time playing, only way it would kill u is by dealing damage to ur head or thorax while its already at 0

[elder dune]

I haven’t played Reserve much but it seems that it has trickier exfils compared to other maps - any recommendations in terms of the best ones to prioritize? Armored train sounds like a slaughterhouse

[undone drum]

red rebell extract

or if u questing and have not much loot on you and no backpack.
Sewer Manhole

[undone drum]

do you have the extract in your available extractions?

if u spawn on this side of the map, u might not have it

so its just open for the people, who are on the other side of the map

[drifting canopy]

Thanks

[elder dune]

Thanks!

[elfin basin]

hey guys, i got this task from the terapist but i havent unlocked the map, what should i do?

[undone drum]

its a daily quest, dw you don´t have to do it

[muted python]

keep doing the tour mission and you will eventually unlock it, but cant really do much now

[earnest shadow]

Looking for advice for a good weapon to run consistently. Currently level 32 and wanting to pick a main gun to get comfortable with. Any suggestions for something that’s affordable to mod and has access to decent bullets at a lower level?

Hey guys first time trying to hunt cultist priest for a quest. I’ve been spamming customs as I know the best and shoreline and woods both seem like a nightmare.

The biggest issues I have is always seeming to spawn crossroads and just getting ratted by some squad camping panda or fortress. What routes do you guys take from big red and any general tips for finding the priest.

I saw them 1 time last night and killed 2 sektants but didn’t see a priest, I was in stronghold

[true warren]
