@hardy mist
Nope.

#

And insurance doesn't work on Labs either.

hardy mist
#

damn, that kinda sucks

tawdry holly
#

why is that?

hardy mist
#

you cant scav on labs either, its like a special place lol you need a keycard just to get into the map

brisk mortar
#

Lore reasons. Since ingame you need a keycard to access Labs, the guys that recover your stuff can't get in to retrieve it.

#

And even if they do get in, Prapor usually complains about losing guys because of you.

stable tide
#

no fullscreen windowed?

plucky goblet
#

In the launcher @stable tide

stable tide
#

split vapor

stable tide
#

ah okay

split vapor
#

Also if you don’t turn the hud on

stable tide
#

i killed 2 scavs : )

elder herald
#

I wish there was a way to just turn on specific parts of the hud, I like seeing my stamina bar, but don’t need the equipment bar constantly

stable tide
#

is this good

split vapor
#

But that is what it does it only hides the equipment bar tho

#

It’s decent but that low durability makes it much worse

stable tide
#

ahh okay

#

first body i found

#

got a big backpakc also

split vapor
#

Still a decent helmet those saved me a few times

stable tide
#

ew

split vapor
#

Such is life in the zone

#

Plus no helmet best helmet

#

Imo

plucky moat
#

@stable tide you will get used to it

stable tide

plucky moat
#

stable tide
#

split vapor
#

Yeah alt tab likes to crash the game

plucky moat
#

split vapor
#

Woods best

plucky moat

stable tide
#

split vapor
#

LMAO

split vapor

Yeah don’t alt tab

stable tide
#

plucky moat

stable tide
#

borderless dont work

plucky moat
#

#

split vapor
#

Did you unclick full screen in the ingame settings

plucky moat
stable tide
#

split vapor
frozen rampart
#

I accidentally went into woods at night. I’ve never been so lost

plucky moat
#

lmao

split vapor
#

Oofy

plucky moat
#

i went to factory at night

#

i cant even see my hand

split vapor
#

That’s so worse

plucky moat
#

i was like

split vapor
#

Fuck

plucky moat
#

"how bad could it be?"

#

then i tried

#

i was like

frozen rampart
#

I’m hugging a concrete wall hoping a find an exit

plucky moat
#

"I give up" at the 1st second

stable tide
#

I JUST KILLED LIKE 6 PEOPLE/ SCAVS THEN GOT 1 TAPPED

plucky moat
#

oof

#

my highest was 14 scav in factory

plucky moat
#

just get a mp-153 and put a 8 ammo mag inside and go ham

stable tide
#

TRUE

#

caps my bad

elder herald
#

When offline I can kill like 20 Scavs, online I get too afraid of players and die XD

stable tide
#

ahh

#

idk where extractions are

#

so i doesnt matter to me

split vapor
#

Ha

#

Wiki my dude

plucky goblet
#

!wiki customs

broken quailBOT
plucky goblet
#

just example

split vapor
#

Chris

plucky goblet
#

map was updated in the last week

#

yes

split vapor
#

Shoo

plucky goblet
#

no u

split vapor
plucky goblet
#

you said wiki, i come

split vapor
#

You

knotty chasm
#

Quick question: ATM I'm kind of sprinting to the exits. It's it the aim to be as long in the raid as possible? (Does it give extra xp?) And I have to get to an exit point within the time right?

split vapor
#

Hey I’m the wiki pro here you ain’t

stable tide
#

im done

#

just got sniped in factorys

plucky goblet
#

im also wiki pro user

split vapor
#

No time doesn’t matter

plucky goblet
#

and i actually did something for it

stable tide
#

killed a stacked player

plucky goblet
plucky moat
#

@knotty chasm it depends if you wanna kill more? or you just wanna get the fuck out

stable tide
#

ima end up with a knife now ; (

split vapor
#

Experience is based off what you do Luno so staying in longer means more xp if you do something to get it

#

You can stay the entire raid but do nothing and leave with 100 xp

knotty chasm
#

@plucky moat I got the "run achievement" now more often which halfs the experience, so I thought perhaps there is an achievement for the other way around too 😂

#

Thanks

split vapor
#

Under 500 exp and extract you’ll get a run through status over survived

plucky moat
#

run achievement?

knotty chasm
#

Run through @plucky moat

#

Sorry

plucky moat
#

oh run through

#

that means you went out too fast

#

stay and get kills if you dont wanna run thru

split vapor
#

Killing like 2 scavs and looting them and surviving earns the survived status

knotty chasm
#

@split vapor so even if I am just alive at the end of the raid I will keep whatever ilooted?

plucky moat
#

i usually only run thru if im doing hatchet run

split vapor
#

Yeah

#

You keep whatever you are able to successfully extract with

#

If you die your sol

stable tide
#

pistol + factory = P

split vapor
#

Unless you have insurance

knotty chasm
#

Nice, then I misunderstood that and thought I have to exit or else I'll lose everything too LUL

stable tide
#

what happens if time runs out

split vapor
#

Nah run through stat after extracting isn’t anything important

plucky moat
#

wait, if you didnt extract before the timer, you wont lose your stuff?

split vapor
#

Time runs out you die and lose everything you brought

#

Insurance I think still works when you get MIA

knotty chasm
#

Ah ok then I misread what you wrote earlier

split vapor
#

Aka time out

knotty chasm
#

So in the end I gotta run to an exit, check

plucky moat
#

if youre going labs

#

dont insure anything

stable tide
#

legit done

#

spawn killed

split vapor
#

Yeah gotta extract from the map before time is out

#

Factory? space?

plucky moat
#

@stable tide this is why factory is bad for starter, the spawn locations are quite cramped

stable tide
#

ima try customs as scav

#

day or night?

split vapor
#

Interchange scav night

stable tide
#

interchange = to big

plucky moat
#

day custom

#

practise that map first i think

stable tide
#

alr

#

i hardly know the basics

plucky moat
#

use that

#

map for customs

#

a good map IMO

stable tide
#

okay

plucky goblet

plucky moat
#

lol

#

anyone know how to use the god damn mosin obrez

split vapor
#

Aim at foot hit chest

#

Or get right up in them

plucky moat
#

so aim at chest hit head?

split vapor
#

Or the sky

plucky moat
#

no wonder

#

i was shooting sniper scav

#

even a shotgun is more accurate

split vapor
#

Yeah don’t bother with that

#

Yeah

plucky moat
#

i was at the skeleton in customs

#

right infront of the sniper

#

shot like 3 times all miss cause i was aiming at the head

brisk mortar
#

Never, ever aim head.

plucky moat
#

not with a obrez you mean

brisk mortar
#

Always aim center of mass.

#

Aim small, miss small.

plucky moat
#

true

#

but usually is either i hs them, get lucky and body them or i just die

#

Guys, just a question. What do you think of people who full auto spray down hatchlings

brisk mortar
#

Their doing gods work.

plucky moat
#

really?

#

why

stable tide
#

im legit getting so angry

plucky goblet
#

because hatchlings deserve death for not risking anything

brisk mortar
#

Hatchling lives don't matter.

plucky moat
#

jeez

#

for me, if the hatchling doesnt get too close to me

#

i usually let them pass

solemn rampart
#

But what if the hatchlings give you a lap dance, do you spare them?

brisk mortar
#

The last one I saw, i stomached and legged them.

plucky moat
#

wow

#

cause sometimes i just go hatchling for fun

#

and then people just full auto spray me down

#

i was like wtf?

#

how was that even worth

brisk mortar
#

Tags.

plucky moat
#

i cant even hurt you

solemn rampart
#

I sword run to get certain quests done. Or to make friends

brisk mortar
#

Also you never know what a hatchie is hiding in their container.

split vapor
#

Be me have an ak105 suppressed and scopes in the gamma

stable tide
#

im rinning pistols

#

because i have no gear

plucky moat
#

i mean, even if hide it inside my container you cant get it

split vapor
#

Well yeah

brisk mortar
#

People who don't think Hatchings are a threat are always the people that get killed by them.

plucky moat
#

one of the most retarded thing is that a hatchling trying to hatchet me when im doing hatchet run as well

#

yea thats why if they get too close to me

split vapor
#

Yes like getting a 545 in the back of the head by me

plucky moat
#

i will put them down

#

if not i will usually let hatchlings pass

split vapor
#

Hatchlings live if they say hold fire and continue running away

brisk mortar
#

@stable tide
Space, run offline until you're more confident with your aim.

plucky moat
#

yea i do that

#

i just say hold fire, wiggle and move on

#

tbh, i never played offline before

#

i learned it the hard way

brisk mortar
#

No, I'll still snipe hatchies from 200m. It's what they deserve.

plucky moat
#

thats why im always getting destroyed by full autos

solemn rampart
#

Hatchlings are of no threat, swordlings on the other hand are

stable tide
#

#

and when you get close they will shout

#

russians

stable tide
#

plucky moat

stable tide

stable tide

#

Very quiet

plucky moat
#

dont play music while in game tho

how often do wipes occur btw?

#

and when was the last wipe?

frozen rampart
#

They wipe accounts?

split vapor
#

Last wipe just about 3 months

#

I have a question about the player count for a map. Lets take Woods, it says 6-12 players. Does that mean that a raid won't start until atleast 6 players are in que? And does that only mean PMCs or is it Player scavs and PMCs?

brisk mortar
#

Pmcs

#

P-scavs don't really spawn until after players

urban sand
#

And it is alwayse alteast 6 in this case on woods?

split vapor
#

Technically it could just be you at times

urban sand
#

Ah, so a raid will start even if there is not 6 PMC on the map.

#

That explains why i barley run into a PMC sometimes.

split vapor
#

Especially when you sit in waiting on players

#

Good chance to be a you or at least 1-2 others

timber bolt
#

also decent chance that you might be alone in the raid

#

player count is the lowest its been since april wipe, depending on server region you might not even see or hear another player

#

pmc or pscav

quartz bone
#

Is ssaa 4x working option?

split vapor
#

i wouldnt do any of those ssas options they dont really work

#

past the first option

timber bolt
#

tarkov anti aliasing is ass-garbage

#

install reshade and use theirs instead

#

a few wipes ago, tarkov's AA didn't even work and i'm not sure if they've even fixed it yet

low hull
#

Deadlyslobs settings on his channel is what I'd start with. Go there and chat !settings

Exactlyy most settings arnt optimized I heard but isn't based off anything other then speculation/testing

#

Can someone sell me a magbox for a reasonable price? all the ones on flea are marked up like 150k

brisk mortar
#

magboxing gammas is pretty meta right now, you're gonna have a hard time getting them for cheaper.

hearty veldt
#

ye also prcies are up because of the new FEE system

#

honestly 150k isn't that much given the fact that you can get around 700-1m with magcase in labs easy

#

so it wil pay for it self right away with 1 run

#

check the prices of 12 60 rounder mags for ak/m4 then prcies for igolnik or 995 (60 x 12 ) and you will see what i mean

coral cape
#

I have to give 2 mp-133 to Prapor... how?

hearty veldt
#

check wiki @coral cape for it

#

als osometimes having the mag in the gun dosn't allow you to return it for quest

#

so remove the mag and try again

to give items to traders

go to main menu traders>click the one you want and then task

don't go lumberyard? hahaha

split vapor
#

cause we all snipe on woods

so yeah

people being seen and being out in the open, they do stupid things that get them killed

Going woods is high risk of eating a snipe up your face, so best to run other maps

i accidentaly deleted my alpha container is there a way to get it back?

brisk mortar

Nope.

#

uh nah,but you can one from pk

brisk mortar
#

Actually no

#

Yeah

vestal matrix
#

I only have the alpha container and im not level 4 with pk, is it possible for me to ask my friend to buy it for me and give it to me?

#

I want to buy the beta

split vapor
#

yeah

vestal matrix
#

oeh nice

split vapor
#

whyd would there be anything to block that

vestal matrix
#

I thought that he would be the only one that could acces the beta container because he bought it

split vapor
#

nope you can buy the Alpha and Beta from PK, you can get the Epsilon from Prapors Punisher task line, and the Kappa once you complete all the tasks

vestal matrix
#

do you think its worth buying the beta? its 5400$

bold kernel
#

Will someone sell me a weapons case for 800k?

vestal matrix
#

or should I just do the quests

brisk mortar
#

Honestly no, because Epsilon is free.

vestal matrix
#

yeah true, thx

split vapor
#

But punisher quest line is stupid

dusk marten
#

When you get the epsilon, will it be deleted in the wipe?

split vapor
#

yea

dusk marten
#

Big Oof

the main reason i dont progress is because i hate the quests haha

i have the Quest "checking" from Prapor. Do i have to Exit with the Watch when i found it ? during the mission the task is set to "checked" but i died now 3 times after i got the watch and i can't complete the quest. My brother could complete it without extracting 😦

crude wolf
#

You have to extract with it

#

If you die you have to get it again

plucky goblet
#

your brother couldn't complete it without extracting because you lose the watch if you don't extract

split vapor
#

The quest still updates when you grab it

lethal zealot
#

whats a good place to kill scavs on wood? for the kill 12 scavs task

split vapor
#

If you die still gotta get it again but the quest will still say it’s checked

#

There’s a rock about 100 feet from scav house that you can snipe em

lethal zealot
#

sounds good

#

kind of annoying you NEED to wear a balaclava but 🤷

split vapor
#

Keep trying tho cause it can spawn with very good loot

#

Also check around the books and chairs some loose cash can be there

lethal zealot

is there a loot table for that room somewhere?

#

If you want to make a quick buck tho I suggest learning interchange and farming the tech stores

lethal zealot
#

never been to interchange

#

ill look up a guide or something tomorrow

#

i know customs and shorline pretty well now

#

but thats it

#

well enough to know where i am when i spawn atleast

crude wolf
#

look up pestily on youtube he has a guide on interchange on the stores

lethal zealot
#

ill do that thanks

#

unlocked the door and got killed lmao feelsbad

Sounds about right

you can trade them in for some stuff right?

You can

save them for tasks?

Tarkov with a someone kinda new?

elder herald
#

So question: How do you know which tasks can be done as a scav? Right now I am referencing the Kill X Scavs at Customs tasks, but in general how do you know?

plush anvil
#

You can't make missions as a scav

#

You can collect the key items and such, but the ones that talk about killing is only if you're a pmc

#

@elder herald

#

You can get generic items, but that's all

#

Quest specific items don't spawn, i think

elder herald
#

Okay, guess for tasks with a high chance of death I'll just do a scav run and toss the free gear onto my PMC then try, no real lose there.

plush anvil
#

Yeah, that's a good option

brisk mortar
#

@elder herald
The only sort of quest progress you can make as a Scav is 'find in raid' items.

#

@elder herald As a scav you aren't supposed to be killing other scavs, thats like a team kill, it will be punished with the karma system soon. Scared noob player scavs might kos you though so be vigilant but in reality they are your team.

boreal zenith
glossy venture
#

@boreal zenith yeah mate that means they are vital parts that arent functional. looks like you need a gas block

boreal zenith
#

Thank you, i knew i was missing something, part of it was i couldnt figure out what i was missing and i didnt wanna buy each part and find out

#

Thank you so much

#

you saved me a ton of cash lmao

glossy venture
#

@boreal zenith for the handguard you have on, go to the flea market and look for the "MK12", thats the gas block you need, just drag it onto your gun or find the correct slot for it (part of the barrel attachment) for that build too, either you need to get a red dot of some kind to replace the rear or also look for "magpul MBUS" and you will find the flip up front ironsight to attach

boreal zenith
#

THANK YOU

glossy venture
#

@boreal zenith another trick is you can right click on the part that is red or you want an attachment for and select "linked search" and it will (usually) show you the right things you can attach to it, dont forget to cancel the filter in your flea market when you want to search for other things though. try it with the foregrip, right click on the LVOA foregrip from your weapon inspection menu you have in the screenshot and select linked search, then you can find the correct CASV 6 inch or 4 inch guides (get 1 of either) that will allow you to attach normal front grips that will greatly reduce your recoil and also the CASV 2 inch (get 3) that will allow you to attach lasers and other things.

#

no worries, if you play on OC servers feel free to PM me and ill send you a link to the AUS EFT discord or any other questions

boreal zenith
#

Im on NA but you are literally a huge lifesaver, thank you so much man

glossy venture

#

oh another trick that annoys me you might want to know, just left click the green notification on the handbook and all the notifications of new items will be cancelled. i used to cancel them all manually because i hated the icon 😄

If they add a karma system to discourage scav vs scav fights ima be really happy and sad at the same time. It’ll be nice to not have to be afraid of every scav you see as a p-scav, but also it adds to some of the realism when you have infighting and disagreement over loot etc.

@glossy venture omg thanks so much, I have been doing them all manually

languid crystal

Sigh, I really don't know how I'm meant to spot people, I have played customs like 100 times now and despite what settings I try, I can't ever see anyone at distance yet everyone seems to see me x.x

brisk mortar
#

@languid crystal
If you want to practice, grab yourself something with a long range scope, go to offline woods with Scav spawns turned up, and clamber up onto some rocks.

#

Also use sound to your advantage, even when the opponent is suppressed just look in the direction opposite of the bullet impacts.

Alright i'll try, thank you.

@nova nacelle at that point your arm is just shot. if you get hit in that limb the damage spreads through the body.

so nothing I can do to it?

nope

heal it and make sure you dont get hit there

if you black out limbs its better to extract tbh

and for reloading, do I need extra magazines or just the bullets?

ocean swan

then u can do amount

nova nacelle

ah thanks deziqn

You can drag ammo into a mag and rerack it mid-raid.

Bringing two mags and then spare ammo in your secure container is a good way to free up some space

Probably would help with me getting run up on.. I was playing interchange, came in with zero on me and ended up in a corner in the parking garage when a full kit PMC with m4 and pilgrim just walks right in front of me with his back turned to me, he literally touched me. had nothing to kill him with though 😩

How do you tell if someones a scav or pmc? :/

Through their clothes

and their behaviour

scavs look really different than pmcs

but you can see pretty fast if they are walking like a s cav or play

toxic sapphire
#

I have no idea?

#

I just had a guy who I thought as a scav (had no idea) walk past me normally and then turn around and shoot me in the back

#

are green clothes scavs?

Also they generally have that AI air to them, they dont twitch and turn as much

@plucky goblet ? you think I came all the way to discord and typed up a question BEFORE trying to repair my broken helmet?

plucky goblet
#

well

#

thats the only way you get the cracks out lul

little wadi
#

@autumn delta you can try and repair it with a different trader, like mechanic if you're not able to repair it with prapor, could also get someone you trust to shoot you with a pistol or something that won't face fuck you and then repair it to remove the cracks

#

Also if you just click repair on the helmet you're repairing the helmet not the face shield, you need to double click or inspect the altyn and then repair the faceshield

autumn delta
#

@little wadi yeah I repaired the face shield and it still had 2 huge cracks in it

#

I sold it anyway but wanted to know why it wasn't fixed

#

I don't know if that's how fshields usually are I usually use the kill helm

bold kernel

Can anyone help me to get better in pvp?

what you shooting

#

Players in the stomach or the head

#

Using decent ammo

#

@autumn delta it's just a bug. there is a barter trade to replace a shield with used ones for now but it takes a few trader lvls

#

for altyn anyway

#

@bold kernel what is decent

autumn delta
#

ohh

bold kernel
#

bp, or 7n1

#

and m856a1

#

bp stops around class 4. ppl often have 5 or higher thx to labs. also ak rounds in general can take 5 or more shots to kill on average. ak fire rate is a bit slower then more pvp power guns.

#

Ok, but i still need to get tips on how to win fights, because mostly i get 1 tapped

#

map awareness and ambushing is its own thing.

#

can always invest in cheaper more sniper focused setups until you feel more in control and free to roam.

#

one taps i find are usually practiced areas and setup angles

#

I mostly use mosin with 7n1 and a scope , or i use gear from farming labs scav

split vapor
#

depending how you do labs, camp in parking like a smart dude klin works well

bold kernel
#

I open the garage, kill scavs coming out of there, if non spawn, wait till scavs eventually make their way to me, then i kill them and extract

i just bought the game because i saw some streamers playing and it looked cool. how do i get that same expirience?

brisk mortar
#

Well, what do you mean exactly?

toxic sapphire
#

That is why I bought the game @lethal jungle , it looked amazing and it is amazing but damn the streamers make it look way easier than it is

#

its hard af

brisk mortar
#

Streamers are also usually hyper-aggressive, so that's another problem.

#

Because being smart and careful isn't fun to watch

split vapor
#

streamers need that content and click bait

valid comet
#

i disagree, my favourite tarkov content to watch is from smoke.

timber bolt
#

streamers max out their soft stats so they're able to do this

#

guns have no recoil, black limbs have no penalty, very little chance of bleed, etc etc

#

soft stats completely break the game but the community is so bad at the game they don't realize how fundamental core mechanics work

brisk mortar
#

Read as: I don't like it and it shouldn't be a thing, but noone else agrees with me.

timber bolt
#

?

plucky goblet
#

youre literally the only one complaining

timber bolt
#

once people on reddit realized it was a thing, they pretty much agreed whole-heartedly that it was awful

#

like i said, the problem is people not realizing how core mechanics in tarkov function

#

94% upvoted

#

are you daft?

reef spoke
#

Nunk is right, the end game soft skills are broken ,but since it's not a common issue people dont care. Much like ballstics and other shit I complain about daily.

#

Should they be in game , yeah, but they need to be tweaked

timber bolt
#

he literally sprints and jumps around to abuse netcode

#

sprays people down with zero recoil with pinpoint accurate hipfire

#

has no blacked limb penalties because he has maxed stress resistance and health

#

you can't even do this in cod2

#

modern cods have more recoil than that too

lethal jungle
#

do you lose your alpha container?

split vapor
#

what mean

timber bolt
#

and people still call tarkov """"realistic"""" and """"hardcore""""

lethal jungle

like when you die?

timber bolt
#

no

#

nah

lethal jungle
#

ho

#

timber bolt
#

the point of the secure container (alpha included)

#

is to shove valuable items up your ass

so your deaths aren't as punishing

lethal jungle
#

there isnt room in my ass

there's enough room for four squares of items

if you pay 140 euro, you get space for ten squares of items

I have nothing on my PMC and everytime I go scav I get shot by either a player scav or camping pmc idk how to play this game

i sound like a whining bitch but it is the same result after hours and hours :/

summer osprey
#

@toxic sapphire i pmed you

pine spruce
#

I have the same @toxic sapphire xD but I just bough the game yesterday

#

So I'm expecting to get over it when I master the game more

#

Wait scavs won't shoot you as a scav as long as you don't shoot them?

toxic sapphire
#

player scavs keep shooting me

#

AI scavs just walk on by, but sometimes I recognise its a scav so I think "oh they're friendly" then 5 seconds later they shoot me

#

So now it makes me panic whenever I see a scav, because I have no clue if they're going to shoot me or not

pine spruce
#

I shoot everyone

#

Friends are not a thing if you play solo

toxic sapphire
#

you shoot ai scavs as a scav?

pine spruce
#

Yes

#

Is that wrong then

toxic sapphire
#

i think so, if you're a scav then AI scavs don't bother you, but if u shoot them all the AI scavs shoot you on sight

pine spruce
#

Hmmm

#

Lemme search

toxic sapphire
#

but then you get player scavs that sometimes don't shoot you and sometimes do, makes it impossible for me

pine spruce
#

I'm stupid lol

#

Well player scavs don't talk as far as I know

#

Ai does

toxic sapphire
#

ye they talk but not very often.. you can't determine if it's a player scav or not by whether they're talking

pine spruce
#

Ai shoots very slow placed aswell

#

Players most likely shoot once when they headshot or autofire

toxic sapphire
#

Okay so you come across a scav, you have no idea if it's a player scav about to shoot you or if it's an AI scav, what do you do?

pine spruce
#

The way they walk is different aswel

#

Ai walks weird and stands still alot

#

Players walk like

they always spawn?

no

I don't know Labs map that well

and NPC's would rekt me

but id say if u check all spawns its about 15-30%

i have no clue thats my guess

yeah takes time to learn

eventually you will get a run thats really fast

you can always learn in offline

what pistol?

this is how i learnt

doesnt matter

which i go cheapest

just watch that video and follow him live in an offline raid

okay here's a free tip

#

two HDDs trade for 60rd mags

#

they're worth 18k or so on FM

#

not amazing loot, but fairly respectable for how common PCs are

Also double cowboy hat into glock is good for cash OR gear

#

not bad then I guess :/ why are they so cheap on flea market

#

Because people are lazy/dumb/don't care.

#

Also now that dynamic FM fees are enabled, it keeps certain items from going TOO high

#

the whole point of making money off FM is taking advantage of things people don't know

#

as it turns out, people who play this game are pretty retarded even for an fps community
