maybe even 19
Yes kolontay

Oh they removed him ?
like 4 or 3 wipes ago
Wait really?
yh
Tf?
cultist can spawn on there now tho
Ok ig but its not the boss thats the problem cause if im not mistaken he still got that bs ass aura that jams ur weapon if he gets near and if you get smacked by the baton bb your stamina
yh i dk why they removed it maybe cos of they added different task like peacekeepng mission etc to it
Helping low levels PvE or streets tasks
Hi everyone, can someone look at the video i just posted and help me out in this
i cant seem to hand in my weapon for gunsmith part 3 despite it matching the wiki
show screenshot
i really dont know im so lost
maybe buy another mp5 and put all the stuff on it?
or
restart game
first restart game
Nah bro hold sec
The checkmark doesnt appear always even if the gun is correct btw
But it can still be handed in
Are you sure its part 3?
yup ive done part 1 and two and have part three its my only gunsmith currently
did you try restarting your game?
not yet currently in a raid will report back soon
kk
Do you have the quest actually accepted?
anyone have a cool budget friendly weapon build for SBIH?
best budget would be underlever, best mid budget for stealth would be surpressed dvl
both have t4 pen ammo from traders
any you are happy with pm2 1x8 is decent and cheap
🫡 noted i'll be sure to look em up, thank you
where does one get a suppressed dvl though?
you can buy the gun, suppressor and end of suppressor of flea
🫡
or skier
is it time to let go? 
Workbench craft
cant do it i cant buy 1 component it requires lvl 2
20*
what is the best website to leearn the maps? when u dont know where u are from the start?
escaapefromtarkovwiki
watch videos to kind of learn where you are, very map dependant, even when you know woods sometimes you will spawn and not know where you are
learn the landmarks from videos to understand where you are when you come across them
hey guys i dnt know if i just sell this tetriz or keep it for something, they sell up to 380k, what should i do?
Either get a Sherpa to help you or learn how to play by watching videos online. No one can really teach you how to play until you develop a playstyle that works for you
where is a sherpa
#sherpa-info you’ll find All the stuff you need there. Join the discord for it and they should be able to help you with anything you may need
you can buy the lower from mechanic like 10k lol
are you looking for bit coins unless no sell them tetriz you can barter for 2 of them and 2 green bats for a bitcoin from mechanic
I mean I have 2 spare m4's in my stash but idk bout the mods and shi yk
unless I js buy a new lower and sell those spares
what can i do with bitcoins, just sell them?
yh
You’ll get better prices on the flea but some items are worth selling to therapist for more roubles
just take the upper off and put it on new lower lol
oh aight bet, thanks homie
the only thing u really need is the pistol grip map and the bolt and your butt stock from the lower
alrr tyy!
the upper is the top row 3rd across depending on what you got on my gun but i got mur 15 upper so its that one
just like that swapped my gun without modding it
bett thanks alot brother <3
np mate
so if you havent done it yet your upper is the model 1
how do i get building materials that have the found in raid mark. i have a bunch of things ive found in raid but i dont know what "found in raid" marked looks like. also. same thing for the medical items in the early quests
if it has a checkmark on the lower right corner its a "found in raid" item
and also if there is a orange checkmark its a quest item
everything counts as found in raid as long as u actually find it in a raid lol
maybe u just bought or got most of ur barter items
im looking at 2 items i just xfilled with and they dont count
pliers, bolts, nuts, screws, metal parts, fuze
those should normally count as found in raid
i have a bunch of med items that ive got too. bandages, analgin. none have the checkmark
did you find them in boxes and stuff or did u take them off of someone
all in boxes
and did u die or run through the raid?
some raids i died and xfilled with them in safe pocket thingy, but i have some that i successfully xfilled
dang...
check those where u didnt die and found naturally
aight. well i dont have much that i didnt run thru or die with so. bleh. im really new so im just running through quick. lootin what i can. and finding xfils when i can. trying to learn the maps
yeah I get that, just make sure you spend enough time in the raid (I think around 7 mins) or get enough XP so u dont get a run through
ok. thanks dash
im gonna take a break right now im a little sadge lol. but ill be back at it later maybe ill have more luck
lmaoo yeah maybe, wish u the best of luck! if u need help with anything dont hesitate to dm or tag me <3
Can usec wear bear clothes now or is that upcoming?
It will be coming for TUE owners
Guys i did prestige 1 for the first time i didnt get any of the rewards : armband, dogtag, rock paper scissor emote etc
Idk what the problem is but Im not getting the Cultist Jacket after Purchasing Unheard Edition
I'm about to prestige and was gonna transfer 3 salewas. Will it work if the quest specifies "find in raid" or would I still have to go and find them?
As long as those salewas are found in raid it will work, however generally not worth it and I recommend prestiging over bitcoins instead. Salewas are easy to find and wasting 6 slots on it instead of 6 bitcoins might not be as beneficial
Are you on the correct objective that allows it to spawn?
Im at the first oine learn more, wiki directs me here, only find a key and note here
Guess I gotta extract with note and come back
learning to navigate customs is weird to me
its so hard to get a sense of direction for me
takes a bit.. but in most maps it is all about findong where you are
customs is easier than most in fact. Except that you can spawn inside some building
Do the morphines or food for jaeger instead
The map has a lot of easily identifiable landmarks just watch some videos and keep a map up on phone or 2nd screen
and play on practice
not worth tryign to run a real raid until youhave played on practice enough to locateyourself
yeah I am
I have the map open but even still all of the pois blur together for me or its hard to tell exactly which one im looking at relative to the map
Watch a video to learn most map guides show where they are on the map when looking at a location
Most important landmarks is what side of rive you are.. and if you are in buildigns area or in the forested area. With aht you knwo the quadrant in the map
True forest, parking lot most common spawns
good advice
then by spottign the big buildings liek big red and the chemical plant tanks you can get a more precise position
also play with t a map open on cell phone or second monitor
yup
Go practice mode and run the entire edge of the map
like spawn in practice get a look around and chekc map try to pinpoitn where youa re, not guess. get some clues. It is liek playing geogesser
inside buildings is harder... but those will coem with time
need a hand here. got the mission for main story called tour. mission objective is hand over building items to skier but gotta have found in raid. i got what he needs. why cant i give em up
You need to have all of them before you can hand any over iirc
Just get more and it should let you
any new players need help with something
Question if 2 PMC arrive at the Emercon Checkpoint in Interchange at the same time, do they both extract at the same time or 1 needs to die.
no? why would one need to die
Cause I was at the Interchange Emercon checkpoint on PMC, I have the extraction there and then stayed put near the truck as the extract covers from the tent to the nearby vehicles but i can't leave. And then a random PMC apeeared and shotgun me and while i die he despawned so i think he extracted.
So was like WTF.
are you absolutely certain it was your extract?
Yep.
I got the Emercon checkpoint, I walked there from the power station as the car there is gone..
My extractions was, Emercon, Power station Car, Co-op. The only ones able.
Im not sure what to say other than load in via pve and double check that where you were is somewhere you can actually extract. the other guy might've just been a little closer
Hello, ive had issues, ive been trying to get an group invite from a friend, but i dont recieve group invites. i can send them they see them but once they accept i dont see them in the group .
That's more of a technical issue Ferny, I would have both of you alt-f4 and both restart your games.
in the launcher, you both need to check for updates and make sure youre on the same version number
in my experience, not being able to join a friend was because of mismatched versions
I do not hae the PVE stuff aka no PVE zone bought
or if their ping is so high that the system wont let them join your server
dont blame ya, but if I were in your shoes I would test where the boundaries of the extract area are. its basically an invisible line that you have to cross to begin extracting and its a rather large area around the vehicles on the road, but again without knowing exactly where you were standing I couldnt tell you
Hello, I was wondering how do i increase my Survival rate in tarkov? I die a lot wether it’d be from a player or a scav for whatever reason.
you don't die (more)
hope this helps!
realistically I feel like that just comes with time and more so knowing what spots on the map to avoid and what routes to take, what POIs get the hottest during the raid (dorms on Customs for example)
knowing the spawn locations roughly helps a lot too
is the new beginnings only requirement the lvl?
how do i turn in the hdd for saving the mole i've pressed transfer and visited him and went thru all his dialogue i cant find a way to give him the hdd
found it
i did prestige and i didnt get neither the achievement nor the rewards
You should make a support ticket
Have the same issue, profile is p2, no achievement or rewards, but some how my pve char is p2 with all the rewards, but no achievement, i've never even played pve and you cant even prestige on pve yet. made a ticket hopefully they fix it asap D:
As a low lvl am coping for this lol.
lmao yeh right at start woulda been fine but i'm level 54 lmao
just make sure you've got voip on, new players running a scav miss out when they dont talk back, the guy I extracted with got 3 ssd's 2 magnetic tapes, a bitcoin and a 300k gun with m80 and m80al
yo i got all 5 materials for skier for the building material tour mission but the prompt to hand em in when i visit aint there?
Are all the items fir?
make sure its at tradering screen and not character tasks screen
👽 ahh names wtf
@true ospreyyh i got em put em in my safe pocket thing died did 2 rounds to get all 5 materials
If you die then the item loses its fir status
ahhhhhh i see
If I can remember correctly the quest states that the items need to be fir
Also the items lose their fir status if you get an early extract which is based on xp gained/time spent in current raid
ah okay nah thats on me didnt quite get the concept of fir appreciate that homie
All g brotha dw
is there a way to fill empty fuel tanks
i bought an empty one from fence
only like lvl 11 tho
no
typical fence scam
For future refference you can avoid this by double clicking and checking the fuel directly
Also there is no way someone sells fuel to fence if it isnt empty
hello im new to tarkov and need help please can we call and play some games
whats a good bolt action I can use for Tarkov Shooter 1 & 2?
the lever action rifle counts as bolt action so use that for sure
thats what i did
oh cool. thx
All good
still need?
yes
yeah im really struggling with the hand over building materials to skier. can someone help me out
ok i just had to visit him nvm
how do the amount of people that spawn in raid work in this game
Can I send money/gp coins to arena before I prestige? will I lose it anyways?
maps will show you possible spawn locations.
Every time you load in, its different.
Could be 8 squads of solos, could be 4 squads of 3, could be a mix of anything
When you load in, it gives you the max player count for the map
Some are ranges some are set like factory and labrynth are 5 max others 10-12 or whatever
i got some active codes back in special coms but not the INEEDSPACE stuff
i just prestiged to 1 someone help?
is it possible to be only you
im trying to do shooting cans but some fuckers always rat in the building
Even in the most odd off hour I still see signs of other players, but finding them can be hard
careful, you can get banned from here for that
Don't use tools like that
Its not a hacked client?
No it's some overlay you're using
It's against TOS
i dont use overlays
you clearly do
I came from arena onto this and it came up
anyone got the new codes
You have something, figure out what it is and get rid of it
okay cheater
think if i was using a hacking client i would use it
Uninstall that tool simply
yea uninstall whatever overlay or ratscanner bullshit that was
How about you send that pic to a mod and we'll see how it goes
how about me and you have a scrap
bet
if you have 16k def don't go lab
that's crazy
Have you played Labs much?
You prob will, and asking for a carry isnt very useful lol
go to a less risky map and learn a money run
How much of a wimp u gotta be to use shit like that lol
fat gimp
not even hacking it was blitz for LOL i didnt know it supported tarkov
dude in panicking hard cause he posted a pic of an overlay that could get him banned from here lol
ooo nooo i dont wanna get banned of a discord server
tell ur nan shes got an amazing throat
fat mong
fyi you can get an ingame ban from 3rd party tools like that.
fyi ur nans got an amazing throat too
dude is spooked lmao
prove it, repost that image
oh shut your mouth
??events
Reshala and Glukhar are having a turf war on Customs. 100% spawn rate for Reshala and Glukhar, and AI scavs are replaced with guards.
awh
acting all tough for what
??
no point
holy shit this game is so confusing, spent over a hour just looking through menus after the tutorial
I think i got most of the key combos down. is there something else to look into? I was about to look up a video guide about the medical system as it is confusing to me. Idk if anyone has any suggestions that'd be great
You will spend half if not more of your time on in game menus instead of playing. Just how it is
For the medical system its pretty straight forward you have health you can regenerate it with a medkit alike the cheese kit or and other type of medkit painkillers make the pain debuff go away and make you be able to run with broken legs splits heal fractures and surgical kits repair blacked limbs
Bandages and other type of things stop the light and heavy bleeds on you
I dont know of any one video in particular but you should definitely watch an intro to tarkov video
Unless you enjoy pain and frustration. Some people legit do. in which case no dont look up anything, you can figure it out but you will only figure it out because of death. you will break your legs a lot so always have a splint
awesome, thanks for the info
As Gobie said modt of the time is spent in menu I would suggest pick a map learn it and try to have some fun with the pain
Just I need to know what all the items do and such, then also what is worth being looted or something thats worth alot etc..
Learning the worth is good for when you are trying to make big money just focus on extracting and making it out a few times with some loot
Its almost a sensory overload, im trying to learn EFT, Squad, and star citizen, and no more rooom in hell 2. Pain in the ass to remember asll the different keybings
Alrighty,

Grd Zero Tartowers Sales Office extraction. The “Note with code word Adaptation." Is the note to be found while looting, find it, then go to the extraction point. Or, it is at the sales office desk area? ~Thanks~
quest question: can you wear a PACA under a scav vest for Setup? or should I just barter a JayPC off ragman if I want to wear armor for that quest?
Yes, it doesn't matter which armor you wear, as long as you have the vest equipped
my longest shot yet lol

not a beginner but returned to the game after 2 years, scav games are 10 minutes now, it used to be 20 minutes, is this a permanent change?
hi friends, where can I find figurines? I want to collect them for the fence task 'Small Business - Part 1'
wherever valuables can spawn, labs is one of the best places
thank you! 🫡 if I have to go to labs then well, so be it.
what
anyone want to play. I am a beginner
I 've bought it 3 days ago and it still inactivated yet,,,,
me 2,im already sent 7 reports and no one answer me
Misinformation deluxe
scavs and pmcs see the same raid timer, pmc spawns at the start of the raid and player scavs spawn from some minutes in to the raid to around 10 minutes left in the raid
should i build booze generator?
is it profitable? like scav box and cultist is a bit of gambling actually
+gpu pretty ok with time but idk about moonshine
i like to collect all the sugars i get and use them as food down until they are 1/60, then by the time i have booze generator built i have a lot of sugar i can use already
if you collect sugar and craft the water its definitely profitable
yeah i have a pretty good amount of sugar as of now so ill try it out, ty
what guns can i mount this on and how do i do it i cant see to use this on any m4 or hk build
looking for some help just started today pve or pvp dm me or ping mee
Do required search and it should show you, no?
linked search, required search would be for a barter or something where an item is required to barter for something else
linked search the part, it might help
whats the heaviest item you can put in your pouch?
Trying to finish last 3 levels of strength by just running around with heavy stuff in my bum
Yeah i meant linked search
Not on pc rn so i forgot
do you gain more strength the heavier you are? i thought you just gain strength instead of endurance when you're running above light weight im not sure you will gain more strength for being extra heavy. you can also throw a bunch of grenades or flashes
but you might be able to put that dumbell in your pouch, that would be the heaviest item if it will go in there but its definitely heavier than you were looking for i think
it only showed what i can put on the handguard not what what gun i can put this on
You gota dive a bit deeper
You linked search and then check the handguards section
Since it needs a base for it
You then linked on that and you see the uppers that it can be attached onto
Tl;dr adar/m4a1/m16a1e1/a2
But in your case you might not wana do that since the part is from the new battle pass on arena
no, just need to be heavy
oh hanx, forgot about the dumbell
as long as your weight is not grey like it is here you should gain strength when sprinting. a regular kit with a backpack should bring you pretty close to it
When going prestige 2, will I get my prestige 1 rewards in the mail or?
you will get the poster and armband from prestige 1 when you go to prestige 2
Any good maps to get ammo with no keys?

(Goons claimed my life)
Hey everyone, I am needing some assistance with To great heights part 4, yesterday while I was off work I spent upwards of 5 million rubles 🥲 trying to win the 3/6 games in arena, just wondering if anyone would be willing to squad up and help me with that, WARNING I am very new (18 days since I created a BSG account) I have played a lot in the past 2-3 weeks however I’m still not the best, just send me a text and I’ll be on in about 2 1/2- 3 hours
id help brother im not a crazy sweat but id help
dm me
play your scav to get gear, if you have lighthouse unlocked you can try to kill some rogues for decent weapons to use
I disassemble rogue USEC weapons just incase random bum pmcs or scavs try to grab their loot
if U want gun U work for it
What up everyone
I hate mia avenue tunnel campers.
I have a dumb question, but on streets if you pop a flare in klimov street to extract
why does the sniper scav still shoot you??
because you did it wrong
I'll wait for a normal answer
its because you did it wrong
because you did it wrong
you need to make sure it says signal flare area in the bottom right before you shoot the flare
there is no other reason the scav would yshoot you
I have two eyes
I saw the sign, and it still shot me lmao
Either you shot it from the wrong place, you didnt shoot it at the right angle, or you accidentally shot a yellow flare or something
I've never had that happen before and I always shoot it the same way
easy to accidentally shoot it so high up that it goes behind you
not a sign, there is text that pops up in the bottom right of your screen when you enter the area for you to shoot the flare. and as other people said you need to shoot at a proper angle into the air. if you use a signal flare cartridge i usually aim for 60 degree angle or so
if you really want to know, use shadowplay and send a recording next time.
We cant tell what happened in the game without seeing it
I know
why are we asking these questions then there is nothing else to explain
maybe it was smt w the game
unless the bug is back but that would impact everybody i believe
it's not exactly known for it's most logical bugs
do you have a clip of it
could be but without a clip we have to assume the most likely thing which is user error
unfortunately not, I asked my friend to but he didn't hear me ask
or we just put shit happens on there
I'm not mad ngl, I got a black keycard out of it so I was just askin
People ask the question you ask all the time, pretty much everytime they have a clip with it, they messed up
tbh I was just askin cause I know it used to be a bug where even if you flared it'd shoot
but if the bug was resolved maybe I did fuck up but that's how life goes
Yea I haven't heard anyone else reporting it, but ya never know
fs
i dont think that bug has existed for quite a while now
I'm not the most active user on this game so
To ensure that the flare is done correctly:
- A message needs to pop up in red text in the (right bottom) of your screen. Thats how you know you are in the right place
- You need to shoot it at a slight angle in the direction of the extract.
- Offline practice helps, GZ teaches you this the best.
careful not to clip shit like powerlines too
what
If you get proficient enough you can start running the second you pop the flare without waiting
thanks
but what
how the fuck does that work
sometimes there's powerlines right above flare extracts, i forget if thats the case on streets, just don't shoot them with the flare
you shoot the flare against something, it dont go up. gotta be careful with powerlines and whatnot
also make sure the flare is not upside down when you launch it
whats the best way to find toolsets. ive looted around 150 of them and still yet to find one
try interchange maybe, theres lots of tool spawns in oli and in the back area. check all the toolboxes and crates as well as dufflebags and theres lots of loose spawns on shelves there too
Where would I find elite pliers im going insane for 1 of them cant find it anywhere
elite pliers are comically rare for me i found 3 in raid from level 0 to 39
shoreline smugglers camp
ive had luck on shoreline
I find them all the time on woods - in the new bunker and train depot
I don't think I've ever hit those spots and not seen elite pliers
Gotta give it a look then
by new bunker I mean the one by scav town
So scav town and train depot
Not scav town itself, the new bunker very close to it
the marked circle bunker you can see on the left there
Ohhh yeah I get it I'll check it out
What are you meant to do against the BTR when people pay for it to kill everything? I ran way into the forest, couldn't even see it, but it still sprayed me down thru the trees.
hope there is a rock or thick enough trees near by
Hard cover is the only real way to save you from the BTR if it gets hostile.
Just be glad it's just the PKM it's using and not the 30mm cannon.
you can listen for the metal sound of the turret moving, if you hear it that means the btr is mad at something and its usually because someone paid for the service. its an early warning sign for you
great lol I heard it gunning down some people so i started booking it the other way but it still got me. Ill look for something it cant pen next time I guess. thanks guys
besides where he said.. the scav camp north east of shoreline
has lots of these tools in the shelves
I've looked everywhere by now nothing XD
a few weeks ago I psoted a screenshot here where I foudn 8 of them in one raid in shoreline
not normal.. but tools are common there and on any workers place.. liek interchange west camp
right now I need normal pliers fir:
holy
As a beginner still learning the value (or non-value) of looted items. Keep or sell? Please give me your 2¢ regarding the 2 helmets (Diamond Age & MSA Gallet) in the one image compared to the single image helmet (Fast MT). ~Thanks~
use them
basically all t4 helmets u can keep to use
You can also try Shoreline scav camp near co-op exfil
this one
Ok and thanks! So in these examples only the armor class is the most critical, right?
most important is armor class, coverage also is important tho, some helmets cover ears and some dont, and some can have extra slaap plates on the top as u see on ur image to the right. but t4 is the highest lvl helmets u can get that dont block ur headset slot and most of them are similar, covering the most important parts of ur heard
ud rather have one that covers ears but its not end of the world if u dont have one
When I try and group up with people in the LFG for the map screen, people can't see me. I checked the servers and I am on all of the NA ones, and I checked the box, "play on bsg servers". Any ideas?
Which map?
any, but ground zero in this case
anyone wanna play with a timmy dont know the maps good enough to extract only lvl 9
hey guys, beginner here. quick question:
what is a good "default" setup including all gear, weapons + ammo, and medical items so when i get out of a raid i can quickly buy all my default gear and get right back into a raid
anyone willing to help a low level unlock the rest of my traders and maps? im up to woods now but dont know any extractions
yep i can
i can if you want
yeah im down
looking for someone to help me learn a little and the maps youtube not helping much
yeh i can
I need help 😭
when doing the story the first part and i lie about going to interchange 3 times, does that have a negative effect?
how to set keybinds to use scroll for zoom but still have functioning next and previous
make one of them a 2 stage bing like ctrl+scroll wheel
Quick question, do quest items not spawn in practice raids? Trying to do some scouting before I do a big quest raid on streets and don't really know the map worth a damn
are you asking about the item you need to get from streets?
a quest item?
Whats the quest called?
Correct, they do not since 1.0.
fr?
lmae
Level 3. N/A Just want to find people to show me the ropes and maybe complete tasks/quests. Having trouble finding people
I'm game
ok
I only have interchange open
Can I go in other maps if other people have them
Let me know if you want to play. @shrewd python
I only have interchange open
Does leveling up unlock more maos
like certain level, will grant access to a certain map
You have to do tasks
You need to follow the story quests to get the other maps
So it should say survive 1 time on interchange or go there 3 times
go where 3 times?
sorry just trying to get clarification
Thanks for responding man
To interchange
just confusing is all
do you know anyone who would want to help a lower level out at all
If not, its all good., I been asking in nearly a dozen discord servers
and just cant find people to play with. Just would be nice
What region are you ?
N/A
I am not trying to complain, but its just so difficult finding people to play with
Probably just put the game away for a couple years lol. Thats what I did bnack in 23
Spent so much time on Reddit, Facebook and Discrod and can never find anyone. Thr only consistent people I could find are guys who told me I had to give them gear or pay them
This the quest like you need to follow to get more maps
Will be in the tasks/story tab
I played offline yesterday to get a feel for the exfil locations
I know you are busy and have your own thing you are doing.....but do you by chance know of a good way I could find people
the vcs
I only play a few hours a week. Well now, much more
or the lfg channel
I been asking in there
Yea discord is really the only way
Never join people random in game 😂
I thought maybe Ill get lucky in a non LFG channel and find someone who might be looking for people but hanging out in another channel. I know sometimes people do that
dont EVER do that
People dont just sit in the LFG channel.....they like to converse in other channels until they find a group. Sometimes anyway
i did that once on gz
Whats gz?
ground zero
See like I want to find a group but also, I want to find a person or group that doesnt mind playing with a player who doesnt know much
I did it 1 time when i first started this game never did it again 😂
you play pvp or pve
Sometimes the LFG peeps have a certain level of expectation even for a beginer
and not every person or group wants to "teach" and I dont need a step by step teacher
but just people who dont mind playing with someone who doesnt know whats going on
all the time
I have both
I have only played PvP
I played pve for like 6 months learned all the maps and extracts then started playing pvp
I am guessing PvE is similar to other FPS games
im trying to fully finish pve before i move onto pvp, so i have full knowledge of the game
its a bit easier than pvp
since boss spawn chances are basically a 100%
is the the PvE like linear missions or is it basically like team deathmatch with NPC's
no its just pvp but instead of players its ai
no
oh ok
but the boss guards are genuinely better than most pvp players
I hate games that do thar
I actually prefer harder difficulty
is ti the same loot in PvE
yes
or better loot in PvP
nope, everything is exact same but no players
so like in PvE its you vs all NPC.s
so like does every map have a PvE option
fight enemy factions
if you bought the PvE
and fight you when they see you
no, in the bottom right of the screen you can see "switch to pve"
and it just switches
so every map can be PvE
yes
and they all have the same exact quest items
yes
It’s literally the entire same game from top to bottom
so only difference is if you are one of those people who just want to play against actual people
ok
Just no real players
if youre playing solo, then no insurance will always come back
if youre with a teammate some scavs or pmcs can pick them up
that was next question,....so how many teammates can you have?
same in pvp, 4
4 in a grouo?
yes
Nice to know
Bro ive been trying to look for people to play with. I got the game today and i have a decent undersyanding on the foundations and have played a few raids already. Wanna play?
but obviously with PvE certain quest items are probably heavilly guarded all times
no, unless they are in boss territory ofcourse
unlike PvP where nothing is really programmed
well damn, dont worry I am not gonna ask you guys to play cuz I already know the answer but thanks for sharing
I still want to find people to play PvP
if you dont know the people youre playing with, theres a 70% chance they will kill and steal your shit
@sharp oracle you see my messagev
north america
or do I have to say Southeast
oh ok
Thanks to @onyx barn @open junco for the help
I’m down to play with you my guy. I just got the game today and I have decent foundation on the game and have played a few raids already @sharp oracle
Im playing right now
I am also NA
no problemo
I am down, but just want you to know othjer than knowing the gist of the game, like I dont know where stuff is or like checking ammo, what ammo goes with what
I just havent played consistently to remember....I'lll play and then wont play for a few months and forget everything
thats fine i just need a duo to play with
i would help if you were pve
ive been playing by looking at the map and alt tabbing back and forth
lets play right now g @sharp oracle
i cancelled my queue
should i get pve?
Also if your struggling on day raids go at night thats what ive been doing
@sharp oracle check dms, lets play
why is that
might take me a min to get my microphone settings right hold up
Its just a little less chaos hide in the shaddows
I might be able to run with you guys just gotta see how i run as im eu
bet
Im not very good player i just kinda mid
doesnt matter i just need fellas to play with
ok give me a few when i jump in to make sure mic is working

join us
i just got the game today but i know the foundations
im looking for people to play with
where you at
yea lets run it i can help
im NA
i mean what channel
how the fuck
its pretty useful to learn the game
thats how i learned literally the whole game
and plus you can do whatever you want without worrying to get 1 tapped at the start of the raid
it can still happen but low chance
would someone mind helping me out with this echo please. I am sure Its just a setting on my mic and want to fix it so I can play with people. just would like someone to jump into voice chat with me.
How what
800 gp coins
the WORST mistake EVER
Arena still way to op
I am a loser and a failure. I tried my hardest to find a group and then i do, and my mic messes up. I apprecaite everyone helping me. I really do. I am a failure. I am sorry for asking for help all the time. I am not tech savvy
its just a microphone
I am just trying to get things right. I hate myself. I hope you guys have a good week
you can write stuff in chat
I cant play with anyone
its not a big problem
its all good. I appreciate the help
it is because I want to solve it so people enjoy playing with me
its cool man. I am thankful I met you and just glad I learned a little bit. I just want to get it right
and I dont have friends to help. its all good man. just was excited to finally play with a group and practice
any9one want to help me out please
what shotgun ammo can i use for setup that can actually kill someone? seems any ammo i use is just "here have this free kit while i tickle you"
Superperformance and go for legs
or use the sniper shoty or both
sniper shotty ive tried but i miss or they bounce it
Its time to leg meta then
leg meta usualy doesnt kill em fasst enough somehow when i try
Gota use the correct ammo
lvl 19 looking for teamates'
i know. Im just not gonna do that quest anymore
Is arena the fastest way to lvl?
kinda seems so unless you have an insane round in eft
arena is one of the better options when you are already a higher level
But for rushing to 30 eft raids are faster?
if you have lots of quests to do and can do many quests in a single raid for each map you should do that, playing raids doesnt really give much xp unless you kill bosses or complete quests
if you are on pve you could try transit back and forth between maps until you have the max xp multiplier and kill every boss you see for a good amount of xp, you could also do this on pvp but it will be more difficult
I basically have to level in arena. Otherwise id probably still be level 15 or so xd. Arena really helps to unlock some flea market stuff
Do your ground zero stuff before arena tho so you dont get put into the high lvl lobbies
I done most ground zero stuff. Already level 35 atm
But still on some level 15 or so quests xd
arena has a lvl cap wont level you up forever
Meh it atleast helped me unlock some flea market stuff
Where are we pulling that info from
The cap is for the skills (30)
setup for sure is much easier early in wipe
could of sworn they had a hard cap at level 30 after everyone was abusing the xp years ago. even my pvp character doesnt have the level i have in arena its much higher since i play that everyday
It is a little bit finicky how xp works in arena
But what's 100% certain is that skills cap out at 30
im about to prestige but dont have any bitcoin, is there any other high value item i can take with for some fast money?
not much
buy a black keycard and run labs for some bitcoins and try to farm a bunch really fast otherwise bring quest items you have a hard time finding like the stims for samples and iskra, beef stew, noodles
for ice cream quest?
ye
3 for ice cream cones and 1 for gunsmith 2
cant you just craft those
yes
Alternative is you farm bibs
Anyone able to VC assist, Saving the mole Mechanic quest.
I keep following the wiki and every time I don;t seem to have the interaction for the Scientist to get the key for the door.
I did the other 2 task already, just need the scientist to get the item.
There is a chance someone else has grabbed it and opened the door already
The key isn't mandatory
Not sure if it can be listed
Also you probs can't even access flea since you are on that quest
You can climb across to the room from an adjacent room
Yeah just climb across
is there like an lfg specifically for beginners ? couldnt find it and i doubt any experienced players are looking for newbies
Hi can anyone help me on pve
Need some uk gamers who are newish and on customs tasks PM ME
What game mode
Pve or pvp
anyone newbies looking to group up ?>
@fathom fox this is your chance
join any of the begiiner chats and just see what quests people are doing, always plenty of active begginner chat rooms
if i complete "is this a reference" do i get to keep the streamer box after prestiging?
wouldnt you just need to complete it all over again?
that's what confuses me, if prestiging is like wiping i do know that steamer box is persistent through wipes
well if you gonna prestige you'll find out I guess, your not not gonna prestige if it isn't persistent right lol
i believe you will need to do the quest again for every prestige. if you participated in the event on twitch when it released you can get it in the gifts section on the tarkov website without doing the quest
the quest exists so that people who didnt participate in the twitch event can still obtain the case
the first 4 prestiges dont require kappa anyways so theres not much point in getting it and the streamer items can all just be sold
ye, i've always been concerned about kappa, i guess i'll just use the scav box
how does prestige work can i transfer money to the new life and what do i lose?
Basically wipes your pmc except a bunch of stuff you save
Check the wiki to see how big the transfer window is for each prestige and what you can put inside @austere otter
okay thx
Basically you lose everything except a % of your current skills and waht you put in the window and you get the rewards for each prestige you've done
i only see items 10 mil roubles i cant see what i can put inside on the wiki
you pretty much want to put in bitcoin, ammo I think
bitcoin to spend with traders
ansd ammo to give you a chnace as timmy again
i can
The 10mil roubles are needed to prestige, gota find again the transfer window stuff
its stupid that a guy with 12k hours gets a bigger bonus with prestige than a timmy thats learning the game XD
Wdym
exactly
wym
that makes no sense
All I can find on the wiki is how big each transfer window is but not what you can and cant put in each
Cuz I think some of them have different restrictions
Unless that was changed
But tl;dr put in some bibs
ez clap
yeah its mostly valuables, not guns or armor
its not much, this is what i found people used the transfer for
Pretty much
bitcoin and items you struugled with to find last time
Bibs, jaeger stuff, 60 rounders
flashdrives are a great shout tbh
They are kinda everywhere but sure ig
its all everywhere when I dont need it lmao
Really common in pcs now so i wouldnt waste the slots
yeh I wouldn't but I also wouldnt prestige now they ruined it so
Its easier to do the first ones
They gonna add more after
yeh they ruined it, I grinded kappa for my first prestige
Now it goes to waste
Literally did some of teh shittest pvp quests for nothing
Ah thank you brother ive just found it 🙏
hey im not like new i have 2k hours but i just cant for the life of me get the cultists on customs and idk if im doing it wrong or if im unlucky. in over 10 raid sthey dont spawn, ive checked wikis, guides whatever but theyre just not there and idk what im doing wrong
they are just rare. they spawn on customs near crackhouse and stronghold just make sure you queue for the raid during the times they spawn and you will get them eventually
22 to 7 right?
yeh
yes
anyone know where they moved server selection? its not in launcher
theres no shot
wdym?
either they decided they will just auto detect or your bugged
mine is still there, same place
lemme try restarting battlestate
found it :)
oh good
🫡
You dont need other keys to get to it. There is a bitcoin spawn there and some valuables but its rng
Ig u right on that one 😀 but 5-6 is the same
If u on 1 lets say,it benefits u as well up to 4
id rather just have prestige one as it was than 4 pisswater ones, they literally mean nothing
Then dont prestige again ig
They did say they will add more
So if u speedrun up to 4 then after 5-6 it will be like before for u
are docs/keyholders allowed to be trasfered with prestige
it seems you used to be able to transfer sicc pouch and a bunch of things
now its very limited
hello , does it change anything if i give the folder 0052 to skier instead of therapist for the quest '' kind of sabotage '' and '' supply plans''
probs will once ive played icebreaker and eacaped terminal
Nope, you just gotta chose which rewards seem better to you
I usually go with skier cause getting rep with him is usually harder for me than therapist
80k therapist and 200k skiers , no brainer if you ask me
Therapist gives more exp which is arguably better than money
But its not that much more i go for skier
Skier will ask for 1 mil to get rep back. Prapor will ask graneds and therapist some keys
If i remember correctly so keep that in mind
Difrent quest
Right nvm 🤣
But yea, once you get to another one like that when you have 3 chices its gonna have more drawbacks
alr gotcha
Anyone wanna run factory with me? need my toolset quest and chem part 3
Nikita is Russian Kojima btw

Thanks working on jaegers quest
my 0.2kd ass got blessed by a generous 4 man
if i was to give my friend a back pack full of ammo to help him out will i get banned?
also i might have heard or read somewhere that the twitch drops we got this year will be useable throughout the whole year. does this mean that if i open them all and prestige they will be there again after?

yea don't do that
ref do something
Yes
anyone wanna help me learn the game in pvp experienced or someone new wanna learn together dm me or @ me
are crickent lighters no longer available on the flea market?
why cant i turn this in for gunsmith part 1
repair it
gunsmith guns need 60+ dur
your amazing thank you! lol sorry for the dumb question
ure good bro
also when selling scav guns to traders you only need to repair to 60 to sell it
anyone want to help a new player
Can someone explain to me how I completed Discombobulate, turned it into the BTR driver. It said I had over .40 BTR rep, but then when I got out of the raid it no longer said I had the rep.
do you like pve?
Yeah I like it, I find it fun to play. I've only played the game for 3 days and its the most fun i've had in a while.. It was worth the money ngl. I gets to be a horror game at times but its fun overall.
Thats good to hear. I am new as well except I first bought just standard edition and i got immediately exposed to the true tarkov experience but ive made a few friends. Im debating getting pve or not because I heard it doesnt really let you learn what tarkov is truly like but PVE sounds fun
Is it true the ai is dumb?
I think PVE really shows you the basics of Tarkov, and shows you what the stuff is and learn the stuff, but PVP is just going againts sweats and stuff, its just person preference but I personally like PVE over PVP
I would be down to play with you sometime tomorrow if you want
I would love that, what timezone are you in?
EST
If you like PvE then that's great, but it's bad practice for PvP
Builds a bunch of bad habits
as someone who helps a lot of new players, people starting fresh are more often better than people coming from PvE
^
most people that i see that use PvE as a way to learn for PvP typically become very carefree and that gets them killed a lot of the time once they swap back to pvp
lfg new to the game looking for new players to play wit or someone to teach me the ropes i got good aim
Which “To Great Heights” mission do I need to complete before I can transfer arena stuff to EFT PVE?
how come u get banned for this

rmt?
real money trading
anyone doing beginner quest? just prestiged so at the starting quest again
part 3
If you die on the "for Humanity" ending in terminal, how do you get a new Kruglovs keycard to start the craft for the Activated kruglovs keycard?
lfg, lvl 3 gamer with 0 wins under my belt, i would love to change it but have terrible luck solo,anyone willing to help? dm me if you a chad
I don't carry but I can teach you if you want, what region are you
im eu, I can join a chat run some raids, help you learn if that would help
for sure
beginner zone 35 then
you make it again
i think its the first crafting recipe
for the kruglov
Would it be possible for me to join to learn a bit aswell or are you two only doing duos*
?*
im pretty new are any of these keys any good or should i just be selling them?
Nikita is Russian Kojima btw
Pretty sure that bedroom key is on the lighthouse island, if you havent unlocked lightkeeper and arent close to doing so you should sell it. Blue tape key is used for a quest but doesnt have any good loot anymore, psp1 can be sold and pkpt has good loot behind it like vertex / cofdm for lend lease. Grumpys hideout on interchange is good for getting some nice armour and plates you should use it
Of the ones on the right some of them are used for quests i would just sell the duplicates
Any tips for punisher part4 pmc kill part
you should sell it even if you got lightkeeper
genuinely not worth keeping it
lighthouse one?
how can i talk wish someone in the comunnity that has rights here i got cursed in all the ways, being called all kinda things and racist and violent behaviour against me for jumping in a channel just now and seying hello. I just jumped here a week ago i never encounted someone so hateful and with such behaviour
if you dont respond to someone in lfg they will do that
or act nice and just kill you in raid
Yes but this does not right to act in such a way and for moderators to not do anything against this tipe of behaviour
Did you record it or something?
no but if yo jump with me in the same channel it will just start cursing and what not i bet just because i had an ackcent
akcent
being racist
calling me and all the east side of europe in all kinda ways
i dont wanna reproduce that here
im not a kid but this tipe ov behaviour so violent, racist and hateful ....is not right
Personally I would just move on, no need to interact with them
i know but unfortunate that i join here a week ago or so and 3 th time i just jump in 1 channel for to ask a question and then after just seying Hello ...they just started acting that way....and no one does anything against this tipe of behaviour in a comunnity official discord.
Im new here but somewhere down the line eather someone dont do the job properly or just failed at having an official community server
They cannot really do anything if there is no proof. Try having shadow replay or something on and make it catch discord voices as well.
You need to have a video / audio proof of the people along with their usernames
I know the username 😂 I can jump in the channel it mey do the same just for seying hello again and because I got an akcent it can go crazy in me again for being from Europe
Thats a good idea, just make sure to be recording and then reach out to a mod about the incident
Idk how I got bad PC skills nvm
tell me about it lol
why can't i turn this in?
The mount at the top is not needed also missing iron sights also also wrong stock
Check wiki for help
anyone mind showing me where the evac points are on woods
guys i dont understand what im supposed to do, i get piut in lobbies with players at 1k, 2k, 3k hours and just generally thousands of hours played + even prestiges, and i litteraly die off spawn. i dont know what to do bc i just cant quest cuz this just happens like i dont understand what im supposed to do about this
im litteraly level 10 and i die to players with prestiges and thousands of hours like i genuinely cant progress and do my quests
Yea the game heavily consists of experienced players at this point of its life there are less newer players than experienced ones and theres a load of information that not only the game doesnt tell u but expects it anyway.
its not the fact that i dont know how to play or im lost, its litteraly just the fact taht i spawn in and its 3 minutes into a raid and im getting onetapped by a 3k hour player
You just have to keep dying as bad as it sounds so u eventually start getting familiarised with it and know what to expect.. unironically it is a git gud game
U getting late spawn?
Those 5 secs are enough for adjacent spawns to urs to rush your spawn
ok and what do u want me to do about that
Respectfully it is the fact that you don't know how to play yet and that is completely normal and it will come with time
and alot of the time i dont even spawn late i litteraly see the deploying in xx: seconds
Take a look at a 3d/2d map and only enable pmc spawns and extracts
The learning curve is steep af
bro i know what im doing i just dont understand how i just keep dying to players wit hthousands of hours
i wouldnt call it a learning curve if im getitng onetapped every raid by someone who had it easier to learn the game
They rush the closest spawn to theirs
no they werent lol
Not everyone started in the beggining of a wipe
Oh they were
u realize since they have 3k hours that means they played also when people didnt have thousands of hours
They most definitely were
and were getting started off so that doesnt make sense bro
3k ain't that high in the context of this game
They were in the exact same possition as you are if not worse
the people with thousands of hours learned the game in a less uneven climate ,
simple
You have 10 times more info nowadays than they had back then
ok but what do u want me to do with this information
like im not just gonna run into raids and die in 2 seconds so i can redo that i wanna actually play the game man
To stop complaining and look at yourself instead
U have to learn the flow of the map u play
You gota learn the flow of the map, you will die and you will get onetapped until you learn
Look at the map on the wiki and see all the spawns around the map
But you dont if you keep perma dying 1 minute in
and i know the player spawns and extracts but im still dying
i dont think that matters alot
Knowing them and knowing how to play around them is different
i litteraly know the map and im dying so idk what to do
Then its an angle issue from what im getting
You can't be seriously telling me that you know everything about the game and its still the games fault that you are dying
You have to accept that you gota improve
If u know where they will come from and what angles have a clear overwatch/ shot it becomes significantly easier
While i do get the frustration, there is nuffin much you can do sometimes/often. Maybe you can campntheir asses if you know they are comming
i never said i know everything i said i know the maps and i know what im supposed to do so idk
Leaving tutorial
If you knew what you are susposed to do then you wouldnt be perma deadge
so when people say 2k hours is low it just means 2k hours isnt enough to not get onetapped off spawn
thats waht im understanding
quests?
the early taid is the most danger, you need to know wherevto hidecand where tu hint on few first minutes
Its not about the quests but more about the first minutes of pvp in the raid
Im near 1.5k and i still suck major doodoo so nah. Some peoplle might git gud in 50 hours. Others take 5k hours
I'm the spawn rusher myself
ahahaha
also.. never stay where you spawn. worse place to be
I sure as hel aint xd
well obviously i dont do that
i only do that if i dpawn atca place that if i do not rush a certain spaen i know i will be in a bad place
Better starting changing ur ways
prime example: big red side
Or change ur name @frozen gyro
As I said to other new guys in here, you will get abused and you will always come back for more
reserve labs and factory are just better
customs is a map i prefer to play in duo. other maps i prefer solo
I hate that spawn so much but i keep getting it xd. When i was trying setup it was 50/50 big red or old gas spawn
i dislike dorms. dorms push much for reflex and i lack that
Same
I only go to customs if I really have to
I fcking love dorms
