[coral canyon]

the default muzzle is really ok?

[lunar mist]

yeh they all perform similar now for the most part

[coral canyon]

what about the stock, pistol grip, handguard?

im not really looking to spend 20k for 1 ergo or something

[lunar mist]

I still run suppressed at the cost to ergo, but I point fire a lot so barely effects me

[coral canyon]

ooo okay i'll take a look at these

thank you

[lunar mist]

maybe not mine its like 560k lmao

didnt realise

[coral canyon]

🥴

i like guns that dont break the bank if you die

[bleak tiger]

This should be much cheaper cause ultra 5, 223cb, geis and scope of your choice. Could change geis mount for anything you'd like

[coral canyon]

oh okie

nl is kinda my best choice cause the ammo is easily accessible and i dont wana run an ak for once

m4 for some reason is so expensive even at stock

[bleak tiger]

It is but could be modded to be amazing

[coral canyon]

nl545 is so much more cost effective though isnt it since it works out of the box

[bleak tiger]

This is what I use from time to time

[coral canyon]

looks REALLY expensive 😭

[bleak tiger]

Yup

[lunar mist]

or if you dont mind slower ammo

[coral canyon]

any interesting budget options?

well midrange, not really budget

[coral canyon]

ive been stockpiling on SPP and SP6 so i wana try running an AS VAL soon

[lunar mist]

recoil is crazy low

[coral canyon]

🫡

[lunar mist]

mcx is still really good on a budget to

[coral canyon]

isnt the ammo crazy rare tho?

[lunar mist]

Quest unlocks cbj

[coral canyon]

[bold linden]

hmu if any1 wants to do the guide - 43lvl first wipe eu servers

[lunar mist]

I did it last month, lemme know if you need any advice

[bold linden]

i just want someone to roam with me so it wont be that boring

i dont rly need advice or anything

[lunar mist]

Fair enough, I did mine solo, took about 1hr30ish to complete

[true sparrow]

How is customs? I got a task from skier to go there😭 im lvl 4 and ik imma die a lot

[weary sky]

you need a hand

[true sparrow]

Would eu servers work good for me?

I’m down to run it with someone though I could use the help and tips

[normal flume]

There are no more wipes right?

like wipes are no more now that 1.0 is out i think? I didnt play before 1.0

[true sparrow]

I think they will still do wipes with the next one being in the summer from what I’ve heard. PvE is the only thing that won’t get wiped unless you choose to not wipe it

[weary sky]

depends where NA are you

[true sparrow]

More east coast. Michigan

[weary sky]

i mean if you check your EU ping on the launcher

if its below 200

[true sparrow]

@normal flume

[weary sky]

yes but no more pvp wipes

[true sparrow]

I’ll check the launcher really quick

[normal flume]

So pvp mode does NOT wipe ever?

[tidal lagoon]

pvp will have a character both for wipe and permanent

ur current one is perma

[weary sky]

not anymore

[true sparrow]

My best eu server would be eu central

Though they are all below 200

West and central would be my best running around 116-150

[weary sky]

thats not awful if you want to try at some point

[true sparrow]

I’m going to do a run on ground zero to complete the burning rubber task

Then we can try if you want

[glass burrow]

can people hear crouch walking

[normal flume]

Whats my best/easiest access ammo at L1 for 556?

going through my traders and not seeing any good options really. curious if anytrhing opens up soon

[coral canyon]

best bet is found in raid ammo. all the early ones are really bad

[normal flume]

Also did they increase comtac 2 prices? Its 50k lol, wasnt in like 30k?

[coral canyon]

comtac 2s are 50k?

[normal flume]

fence shows that for me

oh nvm wrong trader xd

[coral canyon]

fence always sells at inflated prices

[shy ermine]

im at 23 minutes waiting for server how do i back to pick a different map?

[tidal lagoon]

alt f4 and see what happens

maybe u can reconnect and play, maybe u lose ur kit or maybe ure back in stash with ur kit

[glass viper]

Im having trouble with streets, I seem to get blown up by some grenade launcher/explosive hmg half the time I try crossing a road

by Dikhlofos etc, duno if its random scav or boss guards

I thought it was just around lexos but seems to be a lot of spots you have to learn

First I nearly got blown up, then 2 minutes later I was 1hit far away from that spot

[normal flume]

I keep pining my money at the top of my stash but for some reason it continually moves. anyone know why?

[terse gyro]

With the cultist circle, I put in 400k and only got an under barrel grenade launcher back. Is it just luck of the draw or do I need certain items? I put in bulbex and firesteel from what I remember

[tidal lagoon]

only the value and timer u get matters

sometimes its bugged or just gives u shit

??circle

[red thistle]

The cheapest confirmed circle recipes are all from Peacekeeper, here they are listed per trader level.
LL1 - 5 mp5's
LL2 - 2 MPX Suppressed #eft-chat message
LL3 - Flea dependent - G28 barter #eft-chat message (1 labs card)
LL4 - THOR IC armor⁠ #eft-chat message (1 sas drive) <- Prompts a 12 hour circle as per the soft armour price changes - do not use.

[tidal lagoon]

use these for cheapest 14/6hour

[terse gyro]

sick

2 mpx supressed gets it up to 400k?

thats really not bad

[tidal lagoon]

yea

[terse gyro]

thanks, trying it now

no way i got the 6 hr thanks

[tidal lagoon]

[twilit river]

anyone willing to help ne do the easy money task on customs

[full dagger]

anybody game to help a somewhat newish player out with soem missions? id do them myself but i absolutely hate customs

well, i dont hate it, i just hate trying to quest customs

[cursive prawn]

don’t forget to ask in #pvp-lfg lots of live players there !

[twilit river]

@cursive prawn Ty

[hollow otter]

Anyone know where the evasion armband spawns? ive hit every map, every marked room, every bag, static body scav, boss, black box, jacket and Jager stash there is across 100s of raids now and I cant seem to find one its all I need for Kappa

[next nimbus]

you are doing everything right

just getting unlucky

[hollow otter]

Kinda what I thought I was hopping maybe theres a map where people know it spwns so I can grind that. I hit reserve marked rooms for the last 3 days and now im thinking maybe woods. I also tried interchange labs lighthouse shoreline and custom's a bunch

[next nimbus]

i would just spam a map that you can consistantly hit stashes, scavs, and jackets without finding too many people so you can get in and out of raids faster

[thorn ivy]

I recommend mapgenie.io
Some map (i think streets as well) require a pro version.
I think it’s like 5-10$ for lifetime subscription

It has helped me learn the maps and spawns big time
It’s interactive and you can select thing you want to be shown, like player spawn points, extracts, minefields, loot spawns etc etc

[vocal folio]

Can anyone with a working version of EFT send me their consistency file from their eft game files?

[normal echo]

there's better maps like the r3mr ones or tarkov.help that also show loose loot spawns

[thorn ivy]

I know r3mr is 3d
I despise 3d maps, they’re too cluttered imo
I just said what I recommend as no one responded to him

[normal echo]

r3mr maps are the best for learning the layout of the map itself though, as it actually shows you the landmarks to look out for

[thorn ivy]

Like i said, idc, i hate 3d maps and did when i was learning as well
I just told him what i know because no one responded to him lol

[native canopy]

does fence start at 0?

[normal echo]

yes on standard account

[native canopy]

ty

[last sapphire]

Can someone explain to me how the reputation with the flea market works? Still dont know what the benefits are and how you gain rep:/

[thorn ivy]

You gain rep by selling stuff on the flea
Ever x amount of rep you get an extra slot on the flea, you start with 5 slots
Something like that

[noble wave]

Try looking in labyrinth thats where ive found them most often

Best map for kappa items

[marsh marlin]

Is there way to remove that blue overlay? I mean that "hideout item" highlight? I just turned level 29 and it automatically popped on on those cases and i cant remove it from wishlist

[tidal lagoon]

u have to change this setting then remove it from the wishlist

its needed for scav case in hideout so it gets auto added

[marsh marlin]

Thanks!

There is settings auto add to wishlist "favorite crafting recipes". So that mean when i add for example propital as favorite recipe, all components needed for crafting in med station will automaticaly turn as hideout items?

[tidal lagoon]

theyll be added to wishlist so they get a symbol but idk which symbol theyll get

[glass viper]

I cant find a reason to wear armor to streets unless going for boss fight ig. Every single death is a headshot from nowhere visible, and every kill I get is someone who did not see me either

I think I have died every single time I tried looting a scav on this map

Just learned the map has like 17 pmc's so that explains a lot, its not as big as I thought either

[lunar mist]

Streets is a map of knowledge, don't use most main roads go through buildings, side streets or btr, if making crossings pain med,

[coral canyon]

at the bare minimum wear armor so a scav doesnt rip through you with buckshot

[glass viper]

Not a single scav death, they just miss or hit badly when on the move. My only scav deaths are from explosive lmg shot out of nowhere to my knowledge

[glass viper]

Is the paid version really that good? with so many good free ones I struggle to see how its worth

the wiki one and dev.io is interactive as well

[cinder shadow]

What’s the best website for map knowledge in Eft that’s good for Beginners?

[lunar mist]

tarkov wiki is decent

[lunar mist]

but its rotation and rat knowledge that maps don't teach you, that you can learn the hard way or be somewhat taught

[cinder shadow]

Well I am somewhat struggling to get to learning Streets since it’s a big map and I don’t know what section i am sometimes.

[glass viper]

there are several good free map sites but I am not allowed to link them for some reason

I usually use the one on the wiki, but I find it hard for when I dont know the map at all, I use the photo realistic ones when starting to learn the map

[lunar mist]

streets is probably the harder 1 to learn but once you understand the flow its easy, keep playing it and keep using a map, it'll fall into place

[glass viper]

Tryna do properties all around task

but the Real estate agency office room key wont spawn and is somehow not on the market either

[pearl cradle]

what up chat, having some issues reinstalling my game. its giving me the check sum error when the download is completed. Arena downloads just fine. Worked fine on my last pc, any advice?

[lunar mist]

uninstall and reinstall, make sure all related named folders/files are deleted removed and that you have 10% extra storage that what is required, beyond that I have no idea'

[frigid finch]

on factory just found a bunch of insanely well geared scavs? is this new?

[lunar mist]

day or night?

[frigid finch]

day

[lunar mist]

pve or pvp?

[frigid finch]

pve

[pearl cradle]

ok i will try that, thanks!

[glass viper]

Why is there a red skull on factory on my map?

have i just not notived it before or is it some event or what

[lunar mist]

they must be pmc's no?

[lunar mist]

100% boss spawn I assume

[glass viper]

oh didnt know about that, Does it just randomly appear on different maps to guarantee you the boss?

[lunar mist]

actually an event

[frigid finch]

nope, seems all scavs are insanel geared

[lunar mist]

yeh its a new event tagilla and killa with cleanup crew are on factory

[glass viper]

is there someplace to keep track of current active events?

oh yeah this must have started just now? cuz suddenly I cant scav on factory at all

[lunar mist]

keep an eye on annoucnments right at the top

[frigid finch]

so no bosses and just geared scavs? or bosses too?

[lunar mist]

both]

[bleak tiger]

??event

[red thistle]

Killa and Tagilla are 100% on along with their clean up crew on Factory!
Player scavs are temporarily restricted from the Factory location.

[frigid finch]

finally a use for my zab and killa helmet lol

[remote bay]

hello my tarkov keeps on crashing afer any raid ends... can anyone help me solve this i can't play the game

[vocal mist]

[[Events]] and the main page [[Escape from Tarkov Wiki]]

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Events
https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Escape_from_Tarkov_Wiki

[vocal mist]

Or that command, yeah ig #beginners-assistance message

[glass viper]

I kid you not I have spawned in the same apartment in streets 4 or 5 times now

How is that possible with so many spawns

[bleak tiger]

Night time factory is cleanup crew free btw

[vagrant lava]

first picture is arena second is tarkov

what am i missing?

why is he only 3 in tarkov and 4 in arena

[tidal lagoon]

rounding error possibly although idk how that would happen with rep

[proud kindle]

if killa is on factory rn so he wont be on interchange?

[vocal mist]

No, he is also on Interchange

[coral canyon]

where do i get the 6b43 assault armor i need two for sew it good part 3

[glass viper]

Doing the pets wont neeed it in the locked room, I was instantly shot in the head through a window

Anyone know where that guy was?

Went back now, window even has shaders, seems weird

[lunar mist]

fir scavs

[lunar mist]

ignore that, its a barter from prapor, not sure what level

[lunar mist]

punisher part 1 reward and prapor lv4

[barren wolf]

is this supposed to be a thing

[weary sky]

no

[half hollow]

yo so i started arena 2 days ago and im curious, Do i need to do the "To Great Heights!" questline fully? or no

[hidden seal]

define need.. nothign is MANDATORY in the game

[half hollow]

like do i need it to help me progress in the main game with anything?

like tools or stuff

[hidden seal]

no

it is a source of money

but doe snto give you any special item for quests etc

[half hollow]

alrighty, and ik I need the 3rd 1 for me to be able to send items over

[hidden seal]

yes and I gave up on it

[half hollow]

the 4th is the painful 1 ive heard

[hidden seal]

90 matches and the one I managed to make 3rd did not count because of BSG bug

[half hollow]

ooooofff

[hidden seal]

so I shoved it aside

[half hollow]

also arena gets wiped right?

[hidden seal]

no idea

[coral canyon]

i am.so cooked

how does one get hands on level 4 plates besides killing bruh im running out 🥀

[hidden seal]

there are sommon spawns in some maps

even soem assured ones.. itnerchange has 2 right @upper knot ? you can scav those

[upper knot]

Ye

Let me show you

[hidden seal]

and even without these spots I scav a level 4 each 2-3 scav runs

so If you take a saturday focused on that you can get your stash half full of level 4 armors without much risk

level 5's those are more rare

[coral canyon]

crud sorry i meant 5 😭 i got plenty of class 4. knowing where i can find more class 4s would still help tho

[upper knot]

@coral canyon
Blue -> Guaranteed tier 4 armor and gun every raid, both locations. If missing then it got looted. The place in the mall has two floors so search both
Green -> Hideout items and tools
Purple -> For printing money

Ah lol

[hidden seal]

level 5's are more random

[upper knot]

I have 20 Korunds

And Defenders

[hidden seal]

20? lol

[upper knot]

Yes LMAO

[coral canyon]

ooo ok 📝

[upper knot]

Fence 6.0 shop keeps having them

I basically buy a few every day

100-140K

Not bad at all IMO

[hidden seal]

I have yes but fence 6 takes a good while

I am still 3.8

[coral canyon]

im just wearing class 4 but i feel it probably doesnt do anything against half the guys i fight

no way to reliably stockpule?

[hidden seal]

people will assume you have level 5 and try to hit your face anyway

so the damage reduction that level 4 provides on a random 45 pen bullet still helps

[coral canyon]

🥴 goons armor and class 4 plate meta

[gentle perch]

Is the new event an actual quest because I can't see it anywhere

[coral canyon]

theres damage reduction? i just thought it either goes through or it doesnt

[hidden seal]

think it is questless

[hidden seal]

if it goes trough it reduces the damage

significantly if the pen is not at least 10 higher than be base needed

so it doe still help a bit

and level 4 still works well against SMG users and any shotgun

you are not a tank...

[coral canyon]

[hidden seal]

but buch better than naked

[coral canyon]

🫡

what if pen is too low then?

i dont know the specifics

[upper knot]

Sometimes I insta-die with a Tagilla mask and T5 armor sometimes I get 3 kills with tier 4 armor

It be like dat

[hidden seal]

you already at the 3 kills in a raid stage? you evovled a lot

[hidden seal]

you can chew the armor

[upper knot]

Lighthouse changed me

Went from pussy mode to chasing people

[hidden seal]

you have seen the light.. in the house?

[upper knot]

💔

Nah more like it stole the light from my eyes

[hidden seal]

Funny i chase peopel on some maps but on some maps I cannto help but to be fearful

might need to try more lighthouse

you playing solo or you got a team that made you change ?

[upper knot]

I am so glad I got Assessment done

Lighthouse new spawns will make it harder than it already is

[upper knot]

A bit of both but if I'm not solo I try to go in first

[hidden seal]

well, I am produ I told you that it was possible

[upper knot]

I listened to the Bulldog

Now I am become a Bullgod

[hidden seal]

Now I need to catch Up.. I think I killed 3 PMC only in 1 raid (and survived) usually I am happy when I kill one and try to extract with their stuff 😛

[glass viper]

Is it better to camp Old sawmill or Checkpoint when looking for BTR at woods?

[spice cedar]

Are any of these keys good

[gray ravine]

anyone wanna run together?

[wary dock]

Register keys are good on interchange can make like 300-500k if you hit all 20 of them.. x3 if you do all 3 in a raid
OR room is needed for a quest i think

[slow linden]

Checkpoint

[slow linden]

Reshala isn’t bad, he’s right about the registers, that’s kinda it

[spice cedar]

Icic

Ig I used the rusted bloody key and for straight mid

[slow linden]

Yeah Rusted key is a gamble and a half

[glass viper]

Just sit by checkpoint and reset if I dont see it by 30min mark?

[hidden seal]

imho if you spawn very close to old sawmill you can go old sawmill as well. But on restof map you can get to checkpoint before 5 min

[tough talon]

anyone wanna run it? fairly new to the game

[slow linden]

27 min is my cutoff

theres a rock in front of green flare, since the BTR takes the road from green flare you're the first to see it, if it doesnt show up by 27 min I take green flare and reset

[hidden seal]

I do not have that much patience... If I am near that spawn I wait like 12 minutes... will not sit more than that

[slow linden]

no as in, wait till theres 27 min left in raid

dont want 27 min, thats dumb

[hidden seal]

aa ok

[glass viper]

Was just sniped on woods but post death screen shows nothing

nobody

[fiery moat]

its a bug, just wait a few seconds then it shows it correctly

according to the post death screen i died to "shturman" in lighthouse, waited a few seconds then it was fixed

[coral canyon]

is rushing sawmill just a death sentence

[glass viper]

Waited a bit but nothing. Had a sweet babe poster in my docs folder anyways

[fiery moat]

rushing inside sawmill? yeah always

its like popping 10 obdolbos' in a row

[coral canyon]

[hidden seal]

with vodka

[fiery moat]

theres like a 0.01% chance that you will manage to avoid shturman and his guards+ players watching from all over

a few mins after you kill shturman that chance will probably go up to 80%

ur chance of not dying inside sawmill

[hidden seal]

yeah if shturman sees you first you will be hurt and all PMCs nearby will smell blood

[fiery moat]

shturman doesnt leave you hurt often tho

he either just fires warning shots or straight up kills u

[hidden seal]

well hurt is a broad spectrum.. being hurt is the minimum if he aims to kill

[fiery moat]

the only times i died to him were either 2 tap to my thorax with snb ammo or just head eyes

[hidden seal]

I limped away a few times

learned to not poke carelessly

[fiery moat]

after that i always either just snipe him from such a long distance that he cannot even see me, or just go inside from angles that he cannot shoot me to get close enough to him

[hidden seal]

I remember once I was observign him from a rock some 250 meters away. I was zooming in takign my taime to aim at his head.. he sudenly tingles his spider sense, turns to me and one shot me in my face

[fiery moat]

yk that one big ahh rock not so far away from sawmill(not close to emercom,plane nor the beach, just more towards the middle of the map) we were having 2v2 fight there

i backed up for a second to reload

then saw something running towards me

opened my scope and got onetapped

it was fking shturman that decided to leave sawmill for some goddamn reason

and pushed me

he was like, at least 25-30 meters away from sawmill and killed me from like 90 meters

[hidden seal]

in PVE he had a bug (when I was PVEing) that if any PMC (including AI triggered him.. he would go nuts and run all map shootign everything on sight

[fiery moat]

dude ppl are talking about nl545's but honestly ak12 is also very strong i just realized

i've used nl545 a few times before(mainly on labyrinth for max dps to tagilla and killa with bs) but i decided to pick up an ak12 this time

bought one from flea for 70k,(already had ak-evo stock in it) slapped a 5k muzzle brake that reduces 12.5% recoil, a classic se-5 grip worth 10k, didnt even touch anything else, and boom i got an AR with 50 recoil

tried it on shooting range, laser beam

costing less than 100k

i mean, normally if u buy from traders it doesnt come with ak evo so lets say it would normally have 10 more recoil

[coral canyon]

i just think ar platform is cool

but actual m4s run 5.56x45 and i cant buy good ammo until pk4

[hidden seal]

NL being an AR 15 attachment style is part of the attractive I think

but honestly... I am most of the time happy with what I can do with an 74N lol

[brave forge]

Yes.

I ❤️ shoreline

[hidden seal]

I still prefer soviet steampunk style attachments 😛

[coral canyon]

i still definitely love my AKs but i wana change it up every now n then

i like running full zenitco parts on mine

[hidden seal]

well the NL's are better than the 74 for sure

but 74N works well enough.. I die much more due to my incompetence than gun issues

[coral canyon]

tbf NLs are never coming back in insurance, for the AKs at least the base gun comes back

[hidden seal]

yes.. that weird one I posted returned already 6 times

[coral canyon]

i need to build both guns and need to see what the exact difference in roubles will be

maybe 70k diff minimum

[steep fjord]

are the servers down right now?

i think i jsut got ddossed if not

im on ethernet and game said i was 250 ping

[hidden seal]

ethernet makes no difference

ping is the time from your machien to server and back.. 99% of that time is outside your house

any hickup with a router between your house and the server can cause that

and unles syou live in the same city as the datacenters that means at least some 7 routers

[glass viper]

Finally got to train depot and finished btr quest. I got there way early and did not seem looted, but was a dead scav there, was weird

maybe he got sniped, only thing I could think of

[hexed willow]

i dont see to great heights after i finished the skier quest

[odd cypress]

anyone free and tryna help me with a delivery from the past quest, got no key 😢

[blazing halo]

what key u need

and what region

[odd cypress]

bro i just realised u can buy the food u need for it on flea at 15

[blazing halo]

lmao

[odd cypress]

tarcone director key

im stupid

im on eu tho

[blazing halo]

same twin

good luck

[odd cypress]

i mean im still down to run it if u wanna but all g if u busy

the factory part gonna be annoying

[blazing halo]

yeah why not

choose a vc

[odd cypress]

word

beginner 30 im in

[glass viper]

Got 4 thick cases now, wondering if I should just sell my regular cases

[graceful rampart]

If you bring a salewa, do you need to bring bandage and tourniquet? Is it a preference thing?

[light dome]

still bring bandages for bleedings pls

[graceful rampart]

Just worried I’ve been overpacking, but don’t want to waste points for cheap fixes

[light dome]

calok and bandages pretty needed for every run so just bring those

[shrewd python]

i would skip bandages, light bleeds take almost no points off salewa

heavy bleeds take a bunch, still take tourniquet or calok

[shrewd python]

@fiery moat check this weekly

[hardy nest]

if i report a bug with a quest not working. can BSG go and fix it?

[shrewd python]

that is the purpose of the bug report feature

[shrewd python]

@tranquil nebula

[tranquil nebula]

@shrewd python i completed 1 task for prapor and just never unlocked more

[shrewd python]

Have you ever visited and talked to him?

[tranquil nebula]

Dude

Oh…. My…. God

I know im newer to tark but wow. I appreciate it fr @shrewd python

😭😭😭

[shrewd python]

You got tier 3 traders before getting Shipping cans
that's fuckin insane lmao
glad I could help

[tranquil nebula]

You’re the goat dawg

[spare sapphire]

Lmao

[tranquil nebula]

Bro its because i spammed arena during the winter break if u rememebr that

[shrewd python]

Oh yea I get that

[tranquil nebula]

Do you have any advice on the trader i should focus on? I genuinely hate questing and i just want the access to lvl 5 plates (i think thats prapor lvl 4) and to at least have “decent” bullets to buy @shrewd python

[spare sapphire]

What guns do you run

[shrewd python]

Peacekeeper is the goat

[tranquil nebula]

I honestly dont mind any of them. But if i had a preference… i would much rathr run the nl or m4s

[shrewd python]

I'd focus PK pretty hard
M80, 56a1, 45 AP, CBJ, ap6.3
Ref is also insane
Prapor pretty dang good too

Ref probably easiest if you hate questing and like arena

[spare sapphire]

Peace keeper

He also gives good rewards

But mainly focus on all of them

[tranquil nebula]

Ok so PK for the bullets and prapor for the t5 armor right?

[spare sapphire]

Yeah

[shrewd python]

Yea Prapor has good bullets too

[spare sapphire]

Also mechanic is good

[tranquil nebula]

Thanks for the tips both of you guys

Preciate it

[spare sapphire]

He gives you lots of gun parts

No worries

[shrewd python]

but no joke, if you like arena, ref is the easy choice, he's a bit OP

for both bullets and plates

and most tasks are just playing arena

[tranquil nebula]

Bro i have him lvl 3. Im assuming its lvl 4 that makes him insane

I should probably just get him lvl 4 then

What t5 plates does he offer u?

[shrewd python]

Yea fs

[tranquil nebula]

Do you have him max?

[shrewd python]

these two, but also several armors with them

[tranquil nebula]

Would you mind sending a ss of everything he has for lvl 4 please?

[shrewd python]

might be easier if I shared screen

want to hop in a thing rq

[tranquil nebula]

[tranquil nebula]

Yeah thats cool.

[shrewd python]

hop in whenever

[fiery moat]

my current weekly gives 12374 xp and it wants me to kill 35 ppl with headshot in a certain mode. meanwhile yours is just "play a match as scout no matter if u win or lose"

[shrewd python]

skill issue

[coral canyon]

are sideplates worth the roubles yay or nay

[fiery moat]

what was the last time u got shot by your side

i only saw them being useful once when i was spraying a dude in factory office stairs, and the fact that these side plates have like 15 max durability made it so that i could kill him easily anyways

[coral canyon]

valid

[upper knot]

[shrewd python]

I think so, they're so cheap it's like why not
And whenever I check my armor after getting sprayed, they very often have taken a hit or several

So you have to replace them like every raid if you get hit, but I think they're worth

[coral canyon]

also valid

[weary niche]

Why I cannot see my tarkov dlc (if I bought from steam)?

[frozen gyro]

i keep making kits and being to spooped to take em out into the field XD

[lunar mist]

yes

[frozen gyro]

i sadly noticed

[fiery moat]

the one time i got cultists, someone else already killed them

killed 3 ppl, noticed all of them had fkin as val mod 4's in their backpacks

found cultist followers and priest inside stronghold fully looted 2 mins later

the one single time out of like 100 raids i spent

i get a bad spawn and someone else kills them

normally when its any other raid i get to see and explore their spawns just for them to not even be in the damn raid

[coral canyon]

i really like the mutant so i wana run it but i only have access to PS am i wasting my money

[formal hemlock]

[bright wave]

Hello, could someone please assist me? I have been experiencing this issue for several days, and the verification code is not being sent to my email.

[half hollow]

Got an odd question. I mainly play tarkov PVE, but i've started Arena and I was curious. for all the rep I gain in PVE thanks to arena, whenever Arena wipes do i loose all my progress with ref's rep on pve? or no

[slow linden]

❌

Also I doubt arena is EVER gonna wipe

[mystic zenith]

need help w customs quests

[silver karma]

How should I approach the crossing in ground zero towards mira ave? The area with the two entrances to the underground. It always feels like a gamble as it's completely open with so many angles I can be shot from, so I just sprint through hoping for the best and it finally caught up to me earlier as I got sniped

In general how should I approach large open areas I can't avoid? Another is the streets in front of nakatani

[hidden seal]

you comming from where?

from underground or from the ramp?

or from above? from above is pretty straight forward

[silver karma]

I usually come from the stairs next to the sales tower extract

Coming down

[hidden seal]

that is the safest one you can poke down on top of stairs and check and you have LOS on anyoen on the opposite platform

just listen a bit for walking as to your right side there is a large area with broken glass in the ground so lots of noise if anyone moving

[spice glade]

so i just got Tarkov DL'ed. got a few silly questions. mostly about commands, how heal/eat/drink quickly w/o going into character sheet

[coral canyon]

unloaded a mag of pp into one guy and he absorbed half the damage this game stinks until you reach lvl 4 traders

12 hit count bro

[slow linden]

Headshots!

[coral canyon]

he was wearing an altyn

[hidden seal]

you can put some items that are in your pocket sin shortcut

but you cannot accelerate the eating time.. so not worth.. you shoudl eat when you are at a same position

[fossil slate]

How do I do the offensive reconnaissance quest?

[slow linden]

Oughhhhh

[fossil slate]

Do I just use the key?

[spice glade]

so, in the intro raid, it said something like "items can be placed in the quick use slot" or somethin like that, is that not the same slot as your weapons? i just wanna be able to apply meds/torniquets quickly

[hidden seal]

in your character sheet as you call you have the 10 shortvcuts int he bottom and you can drag things there, but only things from pockets and rig

and first few ones are fixed for your weapons

torniquetes, heal, and injectors usually are worth to put on shortcut

[spice glade]

ahh, ok, have patience you prob be hearing quite a few ridiculouse questions from me in the coming weeks 🙂 ty!

[hidden seal]

no question is ridiculous... in a game where nothing is written

but most stuff is on the game wiki

look for EFT wiki

[lean dagger]

Hey
Im having issues downloading the game...
After downloading it wants to verify the files, but it always fails. I have tried a couple things i found online, like trying to unpack the game files for myself, but it didnt work. Any suggestions?

[hidden seal]

there is a community support channel above... probably can get more responses there

[lean dagger]

Oh sorry, missed that

I'll head up there

[spice glade]

RQ, i ran a scav through the raid and made it out, very unusual lol. the sell all button upon returning sold everything on scav, (i was thinking it would just sell looted items) but, can the scav loot be shared with PMC? if so how do i sell looted items only?

[hidden seal]

at that screen you can move stuff to your stash

whas you move to your stash you can use with your PMC or sell to whoever you want

[spice glade]

nice

[hidden seal]

that is main purpose of scav

to gather stuff you can use without risk to your PMC

[spice glade]

do they share the money as well?

[hidden seal]

your scav stops existing after the scav raid outside of raid you are your PMC

[spice glade]

i see

[hidden seal]

when you go again to scav game generate a new scav

[lusty raptor]

how does this work? what's the difference between the top, middle, and bottom? if I want 1 round alternating, or do people do 15/15?

[fiery badge]

To do a full offset mag I usually run 7n and bs or bt I just split into groups of 1 and drag into the mag. The way it is in-game with the system you can’t really achieve that, just amount of x bullet then another of x bullet

[lusty raptor]

i will try to put a normal bullet and tracer in the middle section where it says "Loop" and theoretically when I shoot I should be able to prove it's tracer, blank, tracer etc. Otherwise there's no way to prove it and it just does 15 on top 15 on bottom

[coral canyon]

are glasses just unusable the ergo drop is insane

[hidden seal]

they are mostly useless

[fiery badge]

Does anybody know how ets and the rewards for that work, I wanted to grab the armband but idk the parameters behind obtaining it

[coral canyon]

unfortunate cause some look cool

[lusty raptor]

nvm first game back in 6 months died to a cheater, cya next year

[hidden seal]

you were unlucky.. I see them very rarely nowadays

like, obviously depend on what region you are in

some have more of them, others less

[spice glade]

so, if i wanna start a raid and have the most time on the map, is that were the "select time phase" comes in?

[weary sky]

no

time phase is a 12 hour difference in game

day or night

[spice glade]

how do i know im not entering a map with 10 min left on it?

[weary sky]

you wont

[spice glade]

or 15 or 30

[weary sky]

as a pmc atleast

[spice glade]

ah bummer

scav?

[weary sky]

each map has different timers. that also changes between scav and pmc

[spice glade]

gotcha

[weary sky]

u cannot know

[steep creek]

could anyone help me out with a checksum error?

[mystic zenith]

lfg shoreline lvl 16

[hidden seal]

PMCS enter earlier

SCAVS can enter 10 min after PMC or any moment after that up to 10 min before end

it is a pain to spawn with 10 min left in streets

[spice glade]

yea particularly w/ the 30 min wait for next raid...

[ocean briar]

Hello, im not sure where to ask but its been some time since ive played this game and am installing it again. I have tried to install it numerous times and it keeps giving me an error at the end. Has anyone experienced this and found a solution?

[hidden seal]

it will go down ad you build your hideout and increase your fence rep

[hidden seal]

probably community-support will get more responses on that

[ocean briar]

Thanks, ill try that

[timid igloo]

Hello! How are you? I am kind of stuck in this main mission and I don´t know what else to do to progress. I have started the mission "The Ticket". I just don´t know how to progress in it. I have already completed side missions duch as Network provider and Assessment part 1,2 and 3. And still nothing. I am not even sure if those side missions are related to the ticket main mission. Can I get some information on how can I progress from where I am? Please

[tidal lagoon]

[tidal lagoon]

there are time gates between the quests after assessment keep doing that quest line

[timid igloo]

Hello EnTo! I just did. But I was looking at my current tasks. I don´t have that one yet neither complete nor active. How do I trigger mechanic to provide me with this task? Please

My research demonstrated only how to navigate and complete this task. Not how to receive it from Mechanic

[tidal lagoon]

U just wait

On wiki ull see it says the next quest and then +12hours or smt for example which means u just have to wait 12 hours

In your case should be like 21 hours between them

[timid igloo]

Ok, I have finished assessment part 3 this afternoon. So I am guessing I will receive that one tomorrow.

I will wait. Thanks for the help EnTo! I appreciate it

[spice glade]

which command key toggles auto fire and semi auto fire again?

[timid igloo]

For me it is "B"

[spice glade]

did you change any key bindings?

iv only got about 3 hrs on this game so far

[timid igloo]

I believe I did, but not for this one

Mostly for checking weapon and unjamming it

[spice glade]

cool ty

[timid igloo]

You are welcome!

[hidden seal]

B is the default

not one of the keys peopel usually change

[spice glade]

yup died at least 2ice over single fire lol

[hidden seal]

although single fire works well if you are a fast clicker

semi auto I mean

[spice glade]

only if you KNOW its on single fire lol. i do now

[hidden seal]

I can click only 6 times per second. I know some peopel can do 10 times per second

at that level you are not much slower than auto

[spice glade]

hehe, i click and hold down, wondering "were the rest of my shots? i should be mag dumping rn"

[half hollow]

Question for arena, So I've heard or know it wipes, but im confused on what stays and what goes? Cause I play PVE and I already been answered about my ref rep staying in PVE , but idk if my bought weapons stay, rep, quest items (like the cases and money I got from Ref's quests), armor, and I heard the mastery goes away or doesnt, I keep getting mixed answers about all of that.

[weary sky]

eu?

[red pollen]

Can someone give me some pointers in regards to long range snipping? I am trying to do some stuff on Lighthouse and I'd like to take our some of the rouges from far away, especially those on the grenade launchers... But I seem to be unable to hit anything beyond 450 metres despite setting the sighting range and aiming "above" the target

PvE-Mode btw

[flat pivot]

can anyone help me with some tasks and stuff (im a new player)

[silver karma]

Can someone tell me what happened? I spawned as pmc at the start of the raid in GZ capital insights building. As I usually do I run up to the computer area, close the door behind me, and I loot the room to the left. I hear nobody come up and open the door so I sprint to the second room but there was a guy waiting for me in the hallway and instantly killed me. I thought there was only one way up to this area and this never happened before. What am I missing?

How do you add people in game? I am curious to ask this person how he got to me, just to learn if there is an angle or route I missed

[silver karma]

Thinking about it, maybe he was behind me, like camping the door and shot me through the glass? Although I would have heard him come up while I was looting, not sure

[torpid kestrel]

Hi all, doenloaded the game but then this happened and I've got to start over again, anyone know how to stop it happening this time?

[tepid arrow]

Have you tried searching the error code?

[torpid kestrel]

Yeah

[tepid arrow]

What all did you try?

[tepid arrow]

Iirc optics arnt zeroed according to the velocity of your ammo but rather some other speed. Maybe try tracers and watch where your rounds go so you can visually tell and later switch to non tracer?

[torpid kestrel]

Uninstalling everything including the installer for the launcher

[tepid arrow]

Try this one instead, https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/s/gg149eSTgY, it’s significantly more recent than any others

[torpid kestrel]

I cant do that idc what it means

Y doesnt uninstalling everything and starting from scrstcg work

[tepid arrow]

Bc you’re not installing from scratch, there’s a shit ton of “hidden” files you download with many programs that don’t get removed by deleted the main installation path

Also probably other shit, I didn’t read the post so I’m not sure

[torpid kestrel]

How do u do it from scratch

[red pollen]

Proably I am using a modded SV-98 with T-46M... Following the tracer is a bit akward... And I usually do Lighthouse on night raids to reduce detection range of the AI

[tepid arrow]

You’d have to delete all files, and probably fuck with your like

Registry

[tepid arrow]

Awkward in what way?

[tepid arrow]

You should rlly just do the linked fix, it’s significantly easier than installing from scratch

[red pollen]

Because of the Bolt Action reload

[torpid kestrel]

Delete the battlestate games folder should do it all?

[tepid arrow]

No

[tepid arrow]

U could try a dmr

[torpid kestrel]

Where is is there tarkov stuff?

[tepid arrow]

I have no idea

[torpid kestrel]

Else is*

So that is it all?

[tepid arrow]

No

[torpid kestrel]

???

[tepid arrow]

Idk where it is but I know it’s there

[torpid kestrel]

Whatever ill play dayz instead, only game that never works, not wortg it

[red pollen]

Yeah probably should do that... I was Hoping I could somehow squeeze "A shooter born in Heaven" inbetween the other tasks

[tepid arrow]

Any Internet connecting program i believe is guaranteed to make permanent changes to your computer since it needs to go through your firewall

[tepid arrow]

Why not do the linked fix? Do you wanna hop on call and I can help you?

[tepid arrow]

U could take a cheap bolty as a secondary for pmcs

Alternatively use the mp-18

[red pollen]

Huh?

[tepid arrow]

What part confuses u

[red pollen]

Why the MP-18?

[tepid arrow]

It’s single shot so you won’t have the bolt action reload while also firing t-46

It also counts as a bolt action for shooerborn

[red pollen]

lol what? XD

I didn't know

[tepid arrow]

It’s a fun gun :p

Just make sure you bring a secondary or sumn

[red pollen]

I know ist a fun gun but I didn't you kould use it for that task

[tepid arrow]

Ye I believe it was pretty popular for it when it came out since it shot 54r while still being able to have a sight at level 1 traders unlike the infantry mosin

[tidal lagoon]

just get a marlin

[tepid arrow]

No tracer

[red pollen]

Does the bleed chance also decrease with distance?

[agile pendant]

I don’t believe so just the bullet that’s being shot

[red pollen]

I spent the last 30 mins or so sniping rouge on lighthouse and the damage beyond 600 metre seems a little lackluster aka I don't get throught the armor... So I was hoping to use something that causes bleed

[agile pendant]

Yea I know there isa bit of damage fall off with bullets but idk if that effected bleed chance

I would just do the highest damaging bullet I could use

[red pollen]

Well I guess I gonna do something else and wait about 5 hours to unlock the 50 .cal XD

[sharp cypress]

Are BTR quests buggeD? I completed Another Shipping Delay. Then went into another raid and the BTR driver will not give me a new quest.

[proper sphinx]

yo does anyone know where i spawned on labs / where this guy probably spawned from=?? ik the map reasonably well but idk the pmc spawns this was an 8 second raid (my teammates spawned like 10 seconds before me and i thought they went out the door because it was open but in reality they went upstairs so the footsteps i heard i thought was friendly)

[true sparrow]

I’m lvl 6 and I’m pretty new. I know ground zero for the most part now, you think factory would be good to learn or not since the event is going on there?

[torpid marlin]

With this event definitly no, scavs right now on factory are very deadly. It’s pretty hard . I have 400 h and still died there to scav XD

[true sparrow]

Okay thank you, I’ll learn customs then since I have a task there.

[frozen gyro]

[tulip kelp]

i just cleared the cache

nothing works

[frozen gyro]

what map is decent to attempt test drive 1?

[amber crypt]

ground zero and camp up in a builing always works good

[frozen gyro]

level 20+ ground zero doesnt sound like a great place to be if i hear other people xD

[amber crypt]

no thats a great place to do it

or factory, which is where i did it

[amber crypt]

theres lots of building to camp up in that look over the whole map

[frozen gyro]

then id rather go ground zero yea XD

[amber crypt]

all the other maps i find are a bit too wide and hard to find the players

[frozen gyro]

still got quests on there ive been post poning cus last time i asked about that map someone said the only way to get quests done it to outskill everyone else in the server XD

[amber crypt]

lollll

[frozen gyro]

i mean part 1 is the sr25 soo other maps could work if you see someone further away

[amber crypt]

no im still to lazy to do it either this wipe. like like level 38, still havent done it

yeah it kinda can but with something like ground zero,youll have a higher chance of getting multiple kills in one raid

[frozen gyro]

i will have to say tho i suck at pvp

[amber crypt]

me to bro, me too

[frozen gyro]

i need to plant 3? or 4? tnt for ref

[amber crypt]

dont think im there lol

[frozen gyro]

brutha what level are you

[frozen gyro]

31? 32?

31

[amber crypt]

[hidden seal]

is one of the classic early ones

that and the UMP 45

[thorn ivy]

Avoid open areas, if you have to go through one take a painkiller before hand and just sprint and jump till ur behind cover

[hidden seal]

or pray to a better god

[tepid arrow]

I wouldn’t recommend an exclusively 4x optic for the un but the other dovetail 1x’s like ekp are good

If u want something magnified but also usable close quarters, which is where you should be fighting with a 74un, there’s the 2x prism? sight from skier

You’ll have to swap the dust cover tho

[silver karma]

I have been playing for a couple of weeks and I reached the 50h mark. I would like some advice.

My account is currently level 12. I managed to reach about 7m roubles and a bit of usd and eur by doing the same loop I got accustomed to: running ground zero, looting hideout items plus computers, trying to hoard as many RAMs I can get and vendor them. I usually make it out each raid with 1-3 RAMs and several hideout items. When my scav is available I do the same with him.

I am wondering if it's a good idea to just grind this until I unlock the flea market or if I should force myself to play the other maps and do my tasks. I feel like I know ground zero inside and out, and I am okayish on customs

[hidden seal]

gridn market is only relevant after level 25

so play other maps

[coral canyon]

is it just me or does jpc suck

no soft armor and no side plates why is it so expensive

[silver karma]

Don't I unlock it at 15?

[tepid arrow]

Do tasks, it’s like the only way to progress. Money doesn’t rlly mean shit when the most you can spend it on is crappy level 1 trader shit and leveling up your flea to be useful will take way too long without tasks

[tepid arrow]

Not fully

do some raids by going along the outside edges of interchange like the construction site of the left of the map and the power station as well as the PMC camp to get a tier 4 armor spawn , also do your quests, it will help alot

[terse gyro]

Just got to sbih for my first time. Level 2-3 all traders. Anyone have suggestions on how to go about this? Extract camp? POI camp? Or any other suggestions?

Use a good gun or just go in naked with vpo?

[crimson thicket]

Marlin has changed the game

Although .308 ME is on like level 3 mechanic or something I forget. But it's kind of trivialized sbih. Just play the game, Marlin strong

[terse gyro]

Ok sounds good thank you

Oh bet thank you

[hasty urchin]

Would you by chance be willing to play some? Just new and want someone to play with that could teach me some things

[cursive prawn]

there’s several resources for you, of course sherpahub, but also #lfg-info for live players, and #beginners-chat for other beginners and beginner questions

[hasty urchin]

Ok sweet thanks

[faint pine]

How do I disable nvidia reflex? its greyed out and I cant change a few settings.

[keen lava]

what does this do

[ornate wedge]

blind fire when you hiding behind crate or something

[silver karma]

Will I get access to better ammo once I get to level 15? Or do I unlock them via quests?

I feel like I just shoot pellets at people

[midnight ingot]

both

some quests let you buy ammo from traders or craft them in workbench, and on the flea market you can buy packs of ammo from players too

items in flea are dependant on lvl tho so you might have to be like level30 to get some of the better ammo from flea i cant rememeber

[grizzled glade]

does anyone know where to find alkali cleaners?

[lunar mist]

[limpid knoll]

Hey! Anybody know a good budget labs kit? Gun and armor. Pref from the flea!

[limpid knoll]

I found mine often in technical crates

Try customs and Interchange technical spawns

[lunar mist]

Just use a kit you can kill raiders with, scoped gun and some nades, t4 armor min. There are no budget pvp kits really, min t5 armor and best ammo you for them

[limpid knoll]

Aye aye

[hidden seal]

the tool tip has your answer

[broken marsh]

can someone pls inivte me to rus ofcial server,all links what i find doesn't work

[undone drum]

done

[white kite]

can someone help me with quest

on the dorms

[faint pine]

the tool tip says I need to change the "game fps limit" setting to be able to change reflexes but when I go down to the game fps limits setting it's also greyed out because the reflex setting is turned on, so Im just stuck with not being able to change either of them.

[tepid arrow]

Do you have reflex/low latency in in nvidia control panel

[faint pine]

no It's turned off in the control panel.

[eager tide]

did someone else got an xp bug a few days ago when the server was laging?

[hidden seal]

the is another FPS limit... VSync

you need to disable VSync

but do not worry in fact if VSync is on the driver itself forcefully do not use Reflex

even if the game asks it to use

[coral canyon]

occasionally shadows (usually leaves) appear as pitch black and i mistake them for players. is there a way to fix this?

[weary sky]

see better

[coral canyon]

DARN

caps

[weary sky]

ikr

[hidden seal]

rule of thumb.. if you are not dead.. it is not a player

also most players cammo is better than a pitch black sillouette

[narrow marsh]

would anybody be down to play and help me with the game?

[red pollen]

Just for clarification... The closer the Bullet velocity to the velocity displayed in the gun info the closer the bullets lands where I actually aim?

[tidal lagoon]

not really, it depends on what the guns default ammo is

[weary sky]

still need?

[tidal lagoon]

for example the DVL has m80 as its default ammo so if you then zero the gun to like 200m and shoot exactly 200m itll land where it should

but if u use m993 for example it might slightly miss

[weary sky]

i think 993 overshoots

[tidal lagoon]

yea

[weary sky]

so obv try it out yourself but i always aim slightly down

like at neck/lower head

[red pollen]

Yeah I was just looking at the HP 50 cal and the ak-50 and they have the same velocity

[tidal lagoon]

just coincidence i think but HP is the default ammo for it so it should land just fine

[summer grove]

can somone explain the theta task please

i dont have a whole taskline

[red pollen]

Was wondering if the booby traps are partially bugged or something... Parmesan turned Dorms into a minefield again and I could only disarm one of them... On the others I did not get the prompt.

[quick pasture]

Whats the best way to extract with a scav for the ticket

[desert viper]

I saw people trying to cheese it and join the same lobby on low pop server, other than that I believe voip ?

[proper sphinx]

do you guys think factory currently is a decent map for grenadier? I kind of want to get it done, but I haven't really had a chance to throw one in 4 raids since the PMCs either eliminate me without me having a clue about them or they are all dead qwq

daytime factory*

[hidden seal]

grenadier willhappen by accident as you play

do not try to FORCE it

[desert viper]

I am level 35 and have zero kills with granades -_-

I mostly use nates to force people move in the way I want them to move 🙁

[quick pasture]

You know when they should start queing?

[desert viper]

I have no idea

[quick pasture]

yea this is gonna be a pain

are comtacs 5-6 that much of a gamechanger vs all the other options? the price tag on flea seems hard to justify

i only run sordins for example

despite them being mid

only a 4m range difference, although the comtacs are much quieter

to me they feel a bit too quiet tho

If i want to level trader to level 2 but im missing the cash requirement should i buy/sell to hit it or just wait until i naturally get it by selling found in raid loot?

Is the background creating fps drop ingame not a thing anymore? noticing a lot of streamers use them

like the menu background

[surreal cairn]

one question, wich map is the best for scav runs, and make money¿?

[frigid finch]

is there anyway to disable this terrible priority healing?

[pearl lichen]

if you hold down your healing keybind (i have salewa on 4) and scroll with mouse you can select which part to heal

[pearl lichen]

i would prefer interchange or lighthouse but it depends on what you want

[frigid finch]

yea, but sometimes i heal from my inventory/ass and i cant do that...just wish i could choose which priority i want....would not be hard

[pearl lichen]

if you heal from inventory you can switch to the health tab at the top and drag onto which body part you want to heal

[frigid finch]

yea but thats alot to do if i need to do it quickly...its just really annoying how they changed it to make it worse

[pearl lichen]

i didnt know they changed it

[frigid finch]

it will always prioritize head/thorax over anything, even if your leg is 1/60 and your head is 34/35

its really dumb

[pearl lichen]

oh i dont think you should worry about limbs too much mid fight, maybe keep a cheaper med kit in your rig so you can quickly heal if you need to and keep your expensive heals in your secure container then

i dont think there is a way to turn off priority healing though

[frigid finch]

yea thats what annoys me....muscle memory has to be re-learned cause they changed it...and shouldve just been a toggle

[pearl lichen]

check the pinned messages in #community-support

[coral canyon]

is it true leg meta isnt as good anymore? how many shots does it take to kill for RIP or hydrashok assuming you hit only the legs?

[surreal cairn]

i want mostly valuables or expensive items to sell

[pearl lichen]

9x19 rip should be able to black out either leg with 1 bullet, should be pretty strong still if you can hit your shots

[pearl lichen]

maybe lighthouse or streets if you only want to loot run on scav

[surreal cairn]

okayokay ty

[pearl lichen]

i would look up a loot run video on youtube if you choose to do lighthouse

[surreal cairn]

i think i will make that because i barely know lighthouse or streets

[wanton root]

this game is vicious to us new folks

[lunar mist]

he has 1k hrs

[wanton root]

he's just a kid

[lunar mist]

kids are normally cracked at pvp

[wanton root]

I'm helpless and out of sopranos quotes so I'm just gonna give you a thumbs up 👍

[lunar mist]

You mean 1k hrs is still in infancy in tarkov terms?

I would agree on that

[burnt garden]

Tutorial phase

[frozen gyro]

im not even new XD

[lunar mist]

Yeh it be like that

[wanton root]

I'm just trying to pretend other people are going through what I am, sorry for involving you 😭

[lunar mist]

Curious, have you had an eye exam recently, could you imagine if that's all it was, bad aim coz bad eyes

[lunar mist]

You'll get used to him, he complains everyday but keeps coming back lmao

[frozen gyro]

i wear glasses and had them remeasured recently sadly xd

[burnt garden]

I got sum 230 hours and I'm 0.9 kdr

shi ain't even that hard once it clicks

[lunar mist]

Everyone clicks at diff rates

[burnt garden]

I just stopped playing like a gear fear bum and started running the best kit

went from 0.6 to 0.9 in like 2 days

still going up

[lunar mist]

all me guns are load now, my kd be going down lmao

loud

[frozen gyro]

i stopped playing like that, but it sometimes makes me over confident so i die more often if anything xd

[wanton root]

why does every game have a billion people pretending they're better than they are

[lunar mist]

lots of ego in tarkov

[burnt garden]

24 grenades kit

[wanton root]

not just tarkov. i play this dirtbike game and everybody lies about how much time they have in it like that mikasa

[burnt garden]

Mikasa-Ack

Search my user in tarkov

Ain't lying

[wanton root]

anime pfp = lying

[burnt garden]

noooob

[lunar mist]

wtf lmao

I got 4k hrs

I also have 257m roubles

Staff value 492m

stash

[frozen gyro]

i have 54mil atm. idk what my stash is like

[burnt garden]

I'm executing next 500 scavs I see with gl

[lunar mist]

You should be running t5 kits and t4/t5 ammo all the time with that monies

[frozen gyro]

too lazy to alt tab 3 times to type it over xD

[burnt garden]

My stash value is only 20 mil less

[frozen gyro]

i have been running lvl 5 plates n stuff. ammo has been limited by what i can find around. just havent had luck with it

[silver karma]

Hi - I have been reading up on ammo and armor and the conclusion I am getting to is that as a low level player with only level 1 traders and no flea market, there is not much of a point in trying to run an AK with plenty of ammo. The only ammo I have access to is weak to everything. Would it be better if I ran pistols only to keep it cheap and try to brute force quests?

[burnt garden]

so ur not running reserve and finding 480 rounds of 5.45 BS in 1 raid?

clearly U ain't know the loot spots

[lunar mist]

you need to work todard reserve lighthouse quest and wet job part 6 for m80 purchase/m80a1 craft

[frozen gyro]

even random people that played with me agreed i must be very unlucky Xd they where very confident and "5 min adventure. in and out" vibe. until they queus with me and got deleted by sweats and chads sseveral times in a row saying they usually never run into those that often xD

[lunar mist]

pve or pvp

[frozen gyro]

think im on spa tour 1. so give me a few weeks or months xD

[true osprey]

Scav in Reserve and you will have a ton of usable ak ammo for your level

[lunar mist]

something to work towards

[frozen gyro]

mostly find bp. havent found much bs

maybe cus i go in as scav and people have already yoinked it '

[burnt garden]

ye nah as soon as I finish price of independence

infinite mortar strikes

no landmark is safe from me

[lunar mist]

Just use a smg with highest damage ammo and heads scavs leg pmc's

[frozen gyro]

i have been tryin. i have allot to work towards xd

also my strenght it kindoff a isseu. cus arena and me dying before i can even loot my strenght level is pretty low for my actual level i feel XD
