ok will try noiw
thats the only one that works with that Dustcover
np m8
it looks cool
yeah
but if you ever want a diffrent handguard with a sight
the TactaTula 10000 mount
or 1000 i forget
1000
just goes on the dust cover
the normal dust
yea
any AK pretty much
noted
they are like 5000 rouble
I will do that when I die
that tactula mount is the easiest
which wont take long
tactatula is best really
and the Holosun scope
yeah and its really cheap
idk aboutthe holosun
also, whats better HAMR sight or similar style ( 2 scopes ) or 1 normal and 1 canted sight?
the hamr is nice
i preffer the reticle of spectr
a nice little red dot
the backup mount
the little 45degree mount for the front rail
called backup
NcStar MPR45 Backup mount
the pk06 i like on the backup
no
Shoud i get EOD?
wat
yeah I have few pk06
the backup fits on handguard
would rather use the Aimpoint backup
pk-06 is bae
it is
Love how im fully kitted now and gonna get killed in like 5mins
oof
Have that Prapor Task where I have to like like 20 scavs in woods
but almost every player has God damn silenced sniper
everyone plays labs basically
Lab is a no-no for me
tbh scav killing in mass is easiest done with just pistol in the container
thats the easiest way
smh
APB best pistolp
g18 50 rounder with tracer
apb best pistol
no u
g18 50 round is a close second tho
g17 is coolest
i like my 111 ergo glock17
how did u get that
111 ergo glock vs -2 ergo mosin
lemme see the build
actually nvm I can tell lol
the glock ergo base is that high?
I never realized
Its fine I can see what i9t is
but all the lvl4 mech mods basically
ahh for fuck's sake
huh
tfw you kill a geared player with an mp-133 on scav run and then you die so stupidly as you're about to extract
damn i need a lot of mosin silencer
Im in waiting room for anyone who need assistance
i need 10 pmc kills with silenced mosin minimum range 80m
woods
That one I cant help with lol
u can
i hate woods but probably best way to do the quest -.-
Just gotta camp woods
yeah but not today its 3 am
best way to level Endurance/Health?
play in barded wire
well
^ really?
endurance just run
that levels stress resitance
which in turn level health
but its a huge waste of time to do that so dont do it
just play
kinda need both stress resistance and endurance to get health π
would buying those injectors that give stamina and just constantly injecting myself and running like that work? I guess it would correct?
gamma
whats cheapest and most heavy ammo you reckon?
only real way to level strength reliabley out side of spend a fortune on grenades
just put a bunch of what you will use
but buckshot
and just run around with it? Jump aswell?
its been a while since ive played. back in the day pretty sure it was just jumping yh π
I had heart that pitching grenades also raises strength. But I have no idea.
yeets m67 100m
I killed a guy with a scav backpack filled with cheap prapor grenades. I then made customs feel like Vietnam.
the trees are talking
Charlie in the wire.
nvm its like 450000 a level
stack Tbags?
use ammo cases if you wanna go overweight
fill them with shotgun and gogo
or just waht you will actually use4
bought a shit tone of shotgun ammo and my 22 tbags and im ready to go π
so just walking
i just don't care because it takes way to long just to reach lvl 10 or so in strength
i only need two levels or something like that
im at al;evel 7
3 or 4 i guess not sure
i just need health for this THICC I case
you got LEDX lined up?
Need 3 for the I case
ledx still need that one ofr the quest
and a few other things
the yellow dome u can get them
othlamoscopes
i just don't like hatchet running currently tbh
Server room has one on pc desk
Server does?
is it everytime?
noice
na
nope
no
not even close
if they would spawn everytime they wouldn't cost 1million rubbel a piece
1/20 i got 1
its way easier just farm the money and buy them
probably faster
depending on your keys it should be easy
shoreline is good money
i would probably just run labs with laboratory and weapon testing area key
and manager office
probably fastest way
if you take a pistol with you and manage to kill ascav or 2 even better
just scav on customs get 500k how waht
get the feature where scavs spawn with suppressed scoped ak74's
and find flashdrives
and a lot of bravo scopes
Doers that come with eod
what
get a few
its a meme
my scav spawns with shitstuff and i have a eod so i highly doubt that
its doesnt
its a joke
ah sry its late
I did my math wrong on the buying greandes to throw
10/10
lol π
what are some proper fucking heavy shit. I might just buy a shit tone of nades and throw em
is that 60xp of health or strength?
strength
did you not hear waht i saida caretaker
60 xp
for 4.5 mil
and you still have to throw 600 grenades
Damn i mean 60xp for 4.5mill rub is a shit cost for not even 1 level lmao
I only need 5.8 exp for my next strength level
the exp is what matters to level health
not even worth leveling strength imo
its like 30% of strength xp also goes to health
Im in waiting room for anyone who needs help or has questions
aw
?
sitting there all alone
watching any good
The US server and it's a pretty normal time to be playing games
I might just be missing people as I'm going solo
What US server
Normally the coast servers have more people
I get plenty on the DC one
keeping it on Auto is best bet to find players
Iβd assume even in auto select you should get people
unless Aus or something
Was in auto selected USA
It is late and also labs
Even on one server for me I get a decent amount. Idk if theyβre full games but thereβs people
labs could be it too
and i say that an immediately get mowed down by a player lol
does anybody new need help?
yall wanna guide me through golden zippo quest hahah
can i filter mods by which weapon they are compatible with
Yeah if you right click on the gun and hit linked search it shows basically everything
now we talking thanks
I can help
Np
eftdb.one and tarkov gamepedia wiki also list compatible weapons for each mod. sometimes u need an additional item and or replace something to get it to work like ufm handguard requieres a kiba arms gas tube e.g.
its not possible to add a foregrip to trax 2 or trax 1 if using the trax bridge to us trax 1&2 together on a weapon?
Is the Golden iPhone a quest item or just valuable?
only a valuable. currently no trades for it
where should i do my scav runs, what route should i take and what should i be on the look out for
I would say interchange, there is much much loot there without needing keys, it can also be dark in places so easier to hide from people also. Go around the back of Oli, then do the computer rooms. The extracts r also easy as in opposite corners from each other in each corner of the map.
well what do you want from the scav run money or gear?
gear well i would say look toward kinda customs because there are high pvp areas and places where you can run and hide and there are allot of places you can dissapear into the woods with
@languid dagger flea market is the best solution for such cases)
not everything
true but most of the good armor and the stuff you will want is gonna be pricey
due to high demand it creates high price (ecomics stuff)
agree about top stuff, but if you're beginner you don need top stuff π
yea for like paca and kirasa and stuff like that flea market is your best friend
I have a problem with finding the direction from where the sound comes.
Say I'm in the open and hear scav talking - I turn left and right and I just cant tell direction the sound comes from.
Is it something that comes with experience?
(Im using good quality headphones)
You mean like in games settings?
In windows I have stereo and using regular stereo headphones.
Im interested in this too
Sennheiser HD 280 pro
No I mean in audio driver settings. And good.
Tarkov does not have hrtf unfortunately. You have to make do with pure left/right. Which takes practice and map knowledge
But youβre on the right track, when you hear a sound you should turn your head until it only plays in one channel
And then you have a good idea of where it is
As for distance
that just takes experience
Its not ideal but Im using this method too
Especially for guns
Yeah well you donβt have anything better at the moment unfortunately
In the future
Yeah, but it seems to be in both channels all the time ...
It is probably me... need to practice more
Yeah that sounds like you having 5.1 enabled or something
Or loudness equalization
Make sure to disable all effects in your driver properties
They all mess with spatial audio
audio stuff isent my speciality 
@shut locust Good point, I'll double check my settings
New sound system is in the works, but no ETA yet. Probably after the upgrade to Unity 2018.
No
decent budget gun/mod setup for like <100k?
you got a decent mod setup for vepr?
just slap a rk3 and tt 1000 on there with a pk06 and you good
ty
π
what do i need to put the grip on
ah its not a forward grip?
nope
oki yeah i was wondering mount didnt know it was pistol grip
if you want a foregrip get the b-10M foregrip and then slap on a RK-1
bm10 handguard from skier lvl 2
yeah i googled the shit on the wiki as he mentioned it
always have that up when playing so i can learn lol
USE THAT
its pre helpful
for vepr not ak
but yea that site is usefull it just hasent updated
oh shit thanks
whole hell of a lot easier than going through wiki
yeah ive been playing for a bit and know maps for the most part im just extraordinarily bad and never done weapon modding more than slapping a grip on an mpx lol
back when i played that site wasent around so i had to learn the hard way 
yeha same
so I know all the best shit right away
but you will get there
been playing for likr 4 wipes
:/
870s decent at all or no use learning them
i'd love to get good at just blowing peoples legs off with them
To bad EFTDB isn't updated
my hearts just always drawn to shotguns
Wiki is, although it's less ergonomics to see what mod goes on what
@quasi moat you can get an ak74m from prapor level 3 for 39k. get the PWS CQB muzzle break for -11% recoil for 10k (which is absolutely ridiculous), rubber stock pad for another 4k for -5% recoil, and any decent pistol grip
and in total you have a 545 assault rifle, with less than 200 recoil total (42 vertical which is insane), for 39k + about 20k of modding
ty
it's easily the most efficient AR setup in the game considering 545 is probably the best all-around caliber to use
in terms of price
and you still get 60 rounders
@abstract owl you need help?
Here is my new players guide:
https://tarkovballistics.blogspot.com/2018/12/weapons-of-tarkov.html
u do everything on your own or do u work with nofoodaftermidnight?
I work on my own with friends.
Just wondering, if i am lvl 28 but have combat skills of a lvl 5, do i still count as a beginner?
Mid gameish prob
Ive been playing for about a week now and i have a full stash. what should be the first things i get rid of
is there anything in your stash you dont need? then sell it. you have an overflow of guns/armor use them
Anything not valuable and/or easy to buy
if you have rigs in your stash, put the magazines in them
If you are tight on stash space, keep only 5 mags for each type
because you will get them back with insurance most of the time.
also check your profile on escapefromtarkov.com if you are eligible for the new years gift, it has a ammo box
open the link i posted and log in
then scroll down and look for Additional ingame equipment like in the screenshot
and while you are loged in, setup 2-step verification
i have nothing like that i only have the standard addition
@modern pilot when did you buy the game?
the 8th of feb
you have to have game prior to the new year
28th of December was the due date iirc
can u post a screenshot of your stash, i can help u sorting things out that or what u can trade at barters
Np
Otherwise nothing much you could do without cases
If you want to use what you have there atleast
how do i get those?
Can you recieve the additional ingame content again after wipes?
Or is it a one time deal?
rewards are 6months available
@modern pilot item cases can be bought from therapist or the flea market, for both u dont have enough money/ the necessary items for the trade
can you find them in the instances?
so here is what i would do.
sell: Tactical glasses, Transformer Bags (TBags), the glock iron sight, fake mustache, scav vest's,
take the magazin out of the SKS, it gives u a little more space
no, items cases dont spawn in raids
On top of what @grave summit said, you can also remove grips from weapons to reduce their size
they will not be usable until the grips are reattached, but it'll save the 1x weapon height
for 1 square
yes, on most weapons removing magazin and pistol- grip reduces weapon size
foregrips can stay on
Foregrips dont affect it
@abstract owl you need help?
Is it possible to like "drop" a level on traders?
Yeah
Some tasks can reward negative rep for a trader
Did you turn the chemical task into prapor
smh I was so hyped for skier 2
Over ther or skier
nah, im on the stirrup quest, op aquarius dropped me back down to skier 1
Ah
One quest you can turn into prapor ther or skier the two you donβt turn into will give you a rep regain task donβt do them
Itβs easier to regain the lostrep by their next task
Also I have prapor 3 rn should I stock up on BS 5.45 because Im gonna drop back down to prapor 2 when I finish Stirrup
depends but i wouldn't do it
don't know which prapor quest you are currently on but leveling prapor is no problem especially that early you can easy do his quests in the worst case get some sort of bodyguard to get you the items you need
i'm on the bad rep one, but I dont want to do it because Im also on the op aquarius part 2 on therapist and dont want to drop my rep with skier even more
bad rep doesn't lower skiers reputation
what are you on skier currently because to get him to lvl 3 it takes some time and lvl 2 is doable all depending on how much money you have/luck at farming
Stirrup drops rep for Ther and Prapor
Operation Aqua 1 and 2 both drop Skier rep
Chemical Pt4 you can turn into Prapor Ther or Skier where the two give a -0.3 rep for failure
by the time you do chemical pt4 you normaly have enough rep on all of them so that it doesn't really matter
or enough quests do up them all
I just bought the pre-order and I don't know how to get my beta code. Can someone help me out?
in ur email
there is no real point waiting to do quests because if rep because you can get more than enough from all quests
check spam for the code
@restive gyro E-Mail spam order and stuff
at times it goes to spam
the neg rep is easy to make up from more tasks over the rep regain tasks they will give you
or you can search Battlestategames or esacpe from tarkov in ur email search bar
yeah u dont do trust regain
or whatever ther's is
its pointless
loyalty buyout is the other one i have im not giving 1m R to skiers
@wanton stump what's going on bud
@split vapor hi i just came in the discord to find some people to playwith im new to the game
Yeah I don't like the idea of buying out as a quest. Buying and selling naturally in amounts should make the trader like you more regardless
na i think selling shouldn't give you rep only buying
i see that being more balanced
but different topic not for here π
flea rep doesnt mean anything
Looking to Reapply for Sherpa, what do i need todo..
he gave you the link in gen chat
@supple vault
but thats what you need
thanks
np
oh i see it, it had gone by didnt catch it.
between twitch, school work, eft, and work work i didnt catch on disc quick enough lol
buy or trade or you have a chance to get them in the marked room in dorms
@bold kernel
they shouldnt be over 1m rub on flea
People like yo mark them up real high i believe at loyalty 3 therapist you can trade ibu, NACL, and something else for a key tool
Not really i mean document case is the same thing it sells for a stupid amount but to the traders is only worth like 122xxx
Oh side note you can use the doc case to hold keys
People dont think about it realistically, to use flea correct you should look at the highest paying trader then you put it on flea for slightly more not tens of thousands more
well yeah
nothing on flea is really a realistic price
a realistic price is basically the price Ther will buy it for then add a little above it
/.
huh
Does attention as a skill work?
Guys what do I need to buy to be able to equip vertical grip on mp5?
Does this channel make the Sherpa program more of a thing?
NP!
get that recoil down to a laser beam!!!
If anyone here needs help I'll be streaming alter tonight starting at 6:30pm
Anyone willing to help out a new player learn the ropes for a bit?
Just started earlier today
sadly its too late for me to do anything here in the UK but welcome to the Nikita cult worship club
i can help you out @lucid compass
guns are fun

oh yeah i forgot in the UK you cant process a breadknife without a license
Oh well at least i dont have to worry about being shot by a crazed lunatic with open carry
Theres two sides to every coin in this arguement my dude
uh huh
yes dad

If anyone needs help with anything in game, send me a DM, i also have gear for people below level 20. Cheers
β€
i wasnt ,just making fun of england
Im available for the next 5 hours
He has every right to mock england lol have you seen our prime minister? jesus. h. christ its an embarassment
^ please use #general-chat
quite

@dusky jewel hey, just saw your message, thanks for the offer, right now i'm chatting with a friend
Ok itβs cool, if you need any pointers or advice on anything at all just shoot me a message! :P
does anyone wanna play woods?
So why is extraction camping a thing
people are lame
everytime i try to scav i get extract camped
because that's the only way for them to kill
@tiny salmon I love woods! im down
What's the best way to buy/barter for guns in early levels?
My vendors are all lvl1 currently
Flee Market, cost a bit more, worth the money tho, just dont go all out on a loadout until you build up some cash
2 blackrocks for an ak74 and then market for maybe a suppressor/grip and some decent ammo has been pretty good to me so far.
Just do every mission you can, they give you a tonna xp
lvling traders is easy, just do their missions, buy and sell things to them and be high enough lvl, the game progression is fairly smooth if you follow the quests
Okay. I haven't looked into the quests very much. I'll work on them a little more
Thanks
With the Flea Market you dont really need to lvl the traders to get whatever you want, it just feels nice to have easy access to everything, you can basically by anything in the game from the Flea but just for a bit more than if you had traders lvl'd
GL π
@dusky jewel you still up?
i am for some reason
lol
dies internally
You want to play?
whatcha wanna do
yeah im still here whats up?
Well some advice on what to sell to whom would be great!
Then just more raiding lol
but that is what you do
dont listen to shoot lol
nu
heres what you do:
take all the items that you want to sell,
sell everything that skier will buy first, then therapist, then mechanic
unless you are trying to get money spent on a specific trader then sell it to them
thats the way to get the most money
Ok, why that order
like ther pays more for meds
they will always buy for the most money
^
skier will always pay more for an attachment or clothing item than any other trader
or any item he will buy for that matter
therapis will always pay the most for what she buys
they just dont buy everything
so sell to skier, therapist, then mechanic
Next question, what weapons to sell and which to keep
sell what u can buy
thats personal preference
its about what you like to use
also what you can buy
sell any guns you can easily purchase
adar master race
So anyone wanna play then?
NA central
Yup
Nevermind my game is having hella issues rn
Actually my computer just can't access the internet I guess
On my phone
kick computer
Fixed it
noice
is mp5 9x19 suppose to be THIS weak?
I literally emptied 30 rounds in guys back
and he didnt die
PSO gzh
Thatβs hollowpoint
so thats weak again armor?
Very
damn
Use pst
lemme see how much they are
Basically same
It will be slightly better against soft armor like paca
Donβt even bother with them
Just aim for the head
Their armor will stop it
yeah with no recoil its easy to hit head
Does the USEC character have different starting gear?
anyone here have solo fear?
worrying about going into raids and i generally just dont play unless i have someone with me
Only a few things are different about usec and bear starter gear
I need a reason to use gear solo is boring after like 5 months of no wipe
to get skier level 2 i need to spend 600k more. i only have 482k in my stack and i barely have any space in my stash anyways
is there a quick way to get the money spent up?
Buy attachments from him and sell them back
Some things that he sells he wonβt buy back
@languid dagger
Could always scav and hoard sights
alright i went from 550k to 260k but i now have lvl 2 skier
thanks for the advice @split vapor
Just wondering, is the Global chat implemented yet? When I turn it on nothing changes as far as I can tell
Yeah but when I do that nothing changes in my messages window, as far as I can tell the button doesn't do anything
made some significant progress tonight. ll2 prapor, therapist, and skier
and im slated to get mechanic in about 500k
im lvl 15 so i can get ragman but i need to spend 1m and ive spent 75k so thats gonna take a long fucking time
Are keys kinda a hit or miss thing? I'm considering doing a couple of runs to collect some.
Oh so they don't spawn every instance? Random drop rate?
I was thinking more are they worth seeking out
anyone willing to help me out with lvling and some loot im lvl 6 and struggling
Pistol in case farm scavs. Do quests those are easy xp
cool what room?
Just starting this one will let you know when I'm out
kk
any
I'm on the NA servers
Duo bravo is open
ok
unleessyou got someone else joining
lets do that
prapor ll1 doesnt sell the Cobra EKP-8-02 reflex sight for me, what gives?
he doesnt sell the ekp without the dovetail till lvl 2
only the one with the dovetail
if you guys end up having any questions or want to a sherpa raid feel free to msg me in my stream and @ me. linked to my profile
Hey guys, is there a way to throw grenades less far?
yes!
keybind the nade (hover mouse over. press any key 4-0)
LMB will throw as normal but give you a bit of aim
RMB will underhand throw
use the characters fingers to aim it, and you cant cook it
so it's good practice
Anyone willing to team up with a level 11 noobie? I got a mic and everything, can play factory or a bit of customs if you want to put up with me
Thanks @edgy grove
If anyone has any questions, or need help getting a little motivation to complete tasks, DM me if you seek assistance.
anyone want to team up on factory pmc runs?
@bold kernel wrong channel, you should look in #pvp-lfg
@rose echo can you move your suggestion to #544472689444782080 ? it's a good one but better discuse it on the right channel π
It's not really a Discord suggestion, more for the Discord handles for the Sherpas, I will remove it and DM him instead π
Well, the handle @sherpa exists, is that what you mean?
No it's to get the Discord handles from players for the Sherpas to contact them.
Oh I think something like that is plannedβ’οΈ
Oh OK no worries then π
@uneven estuary you need help?
Guys, is it a bug when I couldnt extract in Roadblock on Customs? There was countdown and all but nothing happened
timer reached 0 and thats it
Im just saying idk why that happened
server probably ate shit
Extraction was on RUAF, I approached it, there was countdown and nothing happened
so I had to basically crawl my way to smuglers boat
both of my legs were blown off
oof
was ruaf open, was the light on?
ha
Yeah, there's this bug that sometimes the times reach 0 seconds but you need to stand there like 3 seconds more to exfil
RUAF Roadblock and Sniper Roadblock were affected I think
or you need to leave exit and enter again
Yeah.
In the premilinary patch notes the fix for this is listed so, it's not that the exfil is not working, it's just the timer is wrong/off
sometimes the UI with the countdown doesn't appear but if you wait you exfil
tl;dr: those exfils are like super bugged π but fixed for the next patch
Hey Andresto this getting fized
I did multiple times
and stood for couple more seconds
nevermind now
good to know thats a bug
@split vapor I would like to assume that this bug is fixed under the "fixed AI when interacting with doors" π€ but can be a separated bug, I don't know π¦
Post it on #521614464643104768 and we'll see π it would be nice to know
Eh weird just used ruaf check as pmc and it work instantly
Tarkov'd
IVANMA is hacker
okay
@split vapor it's not a consistent bug, it happens sometimes
I forgot to mention that π
any idea on the constant server connection lost or whatever it says
"Connection lost" it's the most ambiguous one, it's just that you lost connection to the server. The server can be down, your ISP can be fooling around of your network could not be working right
Guys when i play with my friends sometimes i load in and everyone is stuck in place
That's desync
it only started yesterday
Andresto i know its desync how to fix it
why do people find it enjoyable to camp task objective
people are asses
im so sick of getting sniped by some scrub in the bushes when im trying to grab that bronze pocketwatch
its to the point im doing hatchet runs so im not throwing money away
who doesnt only hatchet run tasks
ooga boogA
Need help with it? @modern pilot
Is this intended or a bug: shooting a mosin with lps to the chest they survive?
if it doesnt frag id assume its possible
@bold kernel they will only survive if:
- you hit arms and it deflected or failed to penetrate arm instead of chest
- you hit stomach
- armor was at least class 5
...mosin ammo is so strong that people are suprised if they don't one tab someone ... π
I definitely just 1 tapped a dude to the chest with SNB rounds in a Mosin. Felt so good
Well it is an AP round
hey, so im like level 20 but i can barley run shoreline, i need to get the first peacekeeper mission done. Anyone down to help?
like pc cant run, or you cant run
Both? :D
Ouch
Can Mosin Infantry have scope?
Thanks
There is also Aim Sports Rail for Mosin
will that work?
Its cheaper
nvm I got the tri rail
thanks
np
Is there an actual effect for your scavs when you level up, or it it just text that pops up without an actual purpose?
scavs do level up
they have their own stats and level
you can see it in skills tab while a scav
Ok, so they aren't just reset because the scav changes, the skills you advance actually stay?
yers
thats cool
How long does it take for my Sherpa application to be approved!?
no idea
Really looking forward to helping the community as a Sherpa π¦ waiting for a reply
@fossil tartan have you applied via the new Google doc application that was released a few days ago?
What are the important things they look for in a Sherpa? Is it raid survival rate/level/PMC's killed etc?
Survival rate isnt a good indicator of skill / experience / knowledge @soft rose People have different playstyles
Some pro players just do hatchet run every time and die with loot in gamma container
By pro I mean experience wise, like veterans
@modern pilot I just managed to get that watch tonight after 12 tries. I finally managed after a full on sneaky breeky run at night. If you havent tried cover of darkness it might be worth a shot.
@rose echo yes I have
@fossil tartan I did also, so if either of us get it at least we will know lol.
Here is what I would call an experienced player:
- Uses semi-auto fire instead of full auto
- Can handle weapon systems unmodded.
any one willing to play? (I am sort of a noob, I can't remember the maps)
I'm sorry man you just started sorta spamming me
@misty halo That's Actually not an indicator of being an experienced player. I think it's more about decission making
Agree. Got a friend that's an excellent gunfighter, he's just dumb as a sack of tushonka.
I'm great at fighting and stay on full auto
recoil control and tap fire are their own skills not in semi auto
different play styles
Yeah that's one of the first thing I ask to newcomers, how they like to play or how they see themselves playing this game. Some people would prefer the looting/survival experience over PvP
I love the Recon play style, ambushing and medium-long gunfights, listen a lot and elaborate tactics (specially on Interchange β€ )
I love the gun and run playstyle. Shooting and moving as fast as possible
Suppresing to allow a teammate to run to better cover
The rush of running out of cover knowing there is someone sniping you
I'm having trouble finding any noteworthy loot. Basically as PMC I try to get to areas where maps say there are gun containers and whatnot, but at best I find some spare magazines and that's that. Any tips?
Depends on the map a lot too
If you mean looting containers, that is pure luck
Customs, and did a run or two on interchange, but interchange is a bit too much of a mess for my newb brain rn
its the best for cash other than labs. Labs is guaranteed firearms if you can survive it. But yeah weapon containers are pure luck usually Makarovs or AKS'
@boreal lotus Try Interchange offline with a map, and try to identify the 4 sections it has: Goshan, OLI, IDEA and the Mall itself
There is some good loot over there and can it be more chill to explore than just running Labs
@fallow pelican I agree partly, the strategic decisions you make, like the gear you bring also matter.
But in combat, how you shoot is a decision too.
@misty halo That's what I mean, taking an unmodded gun doesn't make you pro either... Nor firing on semi... But controlling recoil does, knowing where, and how to fire, fast aiming, when and where to take cover... All this is what you need to become an experienced player
Thanks for the tip!
Recoil control is my Specialty
Okay, after some offline mode exploration, Interchange makes a whole lot more sense
Erh, how do I get to invite a friend to squad up? We're both in the factory lobby, same time selected, but his name doesn't pop up
Make sure he clicks "looking for group"
Yeah, we've been waiting like this for a bit now
Are you both on the same time?
anyopnje need help
@wary cloak what's up? π
hi guys - any tips on quiet maps to quest on? i feel like i'm gonna run out of money before even getting one done!! obviously there's a steep learning curve and that's cool
i'm only going in on my main with pistols and a couple mags, and play scav
mostly factory so far, with a little woods
just hatchet run tasks
or do later in the day maps likely less people
@coral pollen
just a keep pistol in your container
ok thanks, super noob question... are there still NPCs in this?? or are all the scavs always players
always be ai, players and player scavs
like it wants me to kill 5 scavs on customs and bring shit back and i'm like hmm seems impossible
ok cool so i can get lucky and have a less full server, just hatchet some AI for the task
for customs keep a pistol in your case and only use when you find scavs pop them in head and put it back in ur case and then use their gear
i never waste gear on doing tasks
if i can help it
really any pistol on one tap heads
ok i gotcha. so i'm guessing the AI scavs are the ones talking?
yeah got it. ok thanks. still tho for a first task the one where u gotta bring back like 5 shotguns seems hard af. cuz u gotta survive and carry them all out its not like they fit in that small container lol
go buy the shotguns from skier
Because you are doing the Debut if i am correct
and also the Supplier task you need shotguns also
but you easily buy them both
ha gotcha and yah im just talkin surviving the PVP as a noob. makes more sense if u just buy them
cuz theres no way to just do PVE on a server right?
huge the edge of the map, like on woods and shoreline thats easy
yeah that's what i've been doing
well you can only run into Ai if no players come by
right but it's always a threat apparently. got it thanks again
I feel not needed with so many people wanting to help π
I look every 5-10 minutes in here when i have time
but most times either it is already answered or the guy IΒ΄m asking if he needs help is not answering
I've been trying to do that stupid quest at the dorms where you get the gilded zibbo and the. Take it to the trailer park I believe? I ALWAYS ho up against super geared.peeps and can't finish or die. Everytime. Everytime I've tried since the. I've never crossed paths with pmcs there
Have you tried go with someone else to support you? Or just wait until the squad leave the dorms area
Some way to do it would be to just go afk in a brush where no one is going until the raid got only 20 minutes or so left
@coral pollen shoreline is the quiet map, it is easy to avoid other players there.
Which headset is best to use for indoor maps?
imo none really, its easier without
i like tac sport
@violet summit depends what you like. all of them are really close
@violet summit gsh is best for distinguishing footsteps in close quarters imo
sports is awesome for hearing people in bushes at least for me
Welp
I give up
On Checking
There's either a bunch of people in the area where the truck is and I lose gear, or I try to hatchet, and when the inevitable players are there, and I spam Stop, they just let me go only to shoot me as I open the truck.
Any other way to level that fat fuck up?
You can do it :) go in geared as you can
Just go slow listen and grab the thing when u have a chance
Tarkov Give but mostly tarkov take
Prolly gonna have to sit there for 30 minutes until the groups of players dicking around there just pack up. Fun. Egh, guess I have to do it.
I can help you in 20-30 minutes @boreal lotus
Ah, I'm heading off to sleep now
