hey guys does anyone have a way to learn more of the hotkeys like inventory hotkeys and stuff. the settings controls only shows in game hot keys
#beginners-assistance
kindred grotto
im curious how to bind things like my medical supplies to my hotbars and other inventory hotkeys to make me quicker at the game
novel harness
@kindred grotto If you have med/bandages/throwables etc in your pockets or chest piece. You can click on it and then use 4-7 i believe
kindred grotto
hmm i see okay thanks
zinc lantern
hello
i have a question
can somebody explain to me a concent i have about overall visibility
regal plover
@kindred grotto This should help. Hit the "Show Controls" Expandable: https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/How_to_Play_Guide_for_Escape_from_Tarkov#Controls
To bind meds, either drag them to your hotbar or hit the number you want to hotbar them to when hovering over them.
kindred grotto
thank you
wicked steeple
anybody wanna team up ?
regal plover
Lots of people in #pvp-lfg do.
Do the #521628660298678283 and #news-setup stuff to get your PMC role to get access. If you have trouble, use modmail.

Im not that good but i wanna do interchange should i do it?
tawdry roost
if ya aint playing ya aint learning
buoyant mason
Interchange is a great map to start on too!😁
tawdry roost
on that note anyone got good interchange map
the ones i find are quite unconvienient
buoyant mason
Good in what way?☺️
tawdry roost
navigating
i either find ones cluttered too much or confusing
and i want to learn interchange since i hear it has decent loot
buoyant mason
Best off watching a somewhat decent loot guide my friend, that would help more in my opinion
Quite a few show you around
tawdry roost
first manuvering looting later
buoyant mason
That's the only map I've ever used, don't know if that's the complicated ones you were referring to
tawdry roost
ok going to die on interchange 😄
tawdry roost
nah thanks i have enough of scavs
and pmcs
im still training to shoot and survive
dont know why but i still cant get used to playing tarkov
bold kernel
i think the best map to start on is factory
take a day to do a lot of scav runs there
on bigger maps there isnt much you can learn from pressing w+shift and dying out of nowhere
rose echo
Personally I think Customs is a good map to start on, a lot of the first tasks are on it and it's a pretty decent map 🙂
tawdry roost
you are right but im done with customs at this point
i scav the crap out of factory i know customs need to learn interchange
tropic snow
shoreline then if you avoid the resort is also good map to learn
and get some tasks done.
tawdry roost
sob story i need to resort for quest.. got spawn camped 3 times by now
glass storm
Sry for the phone pic
Don't have DC on laptop
Got some stuff from scav run
Is it gut
buoyant mason
What in particular did you get?😁
rose echo
@tawdry roost He doesn't have Discord on the laptop, so wouldn't help screen printing it 
rose echo
Nothing amazing really @glass storm but armor is always good, SA-58 is decent enough
tawdry roost
well you survived so thats good
rose echo
Exactly!
candid ridge
Can we all just sit here for a second and appreciate that this man is running tarkov on a laptop
tawdry roost
^
why is that i watch streamers and their opposing PMCs cant shoot for shit blasting full mags n shit. i play i get one taps to head by lazer snipers
candid ridge
Welcome to tarkov
glass storm
The laptop handles the game pretty well
I7 and a Rx 5**
Or Rx4**
Not sure
I got the sa the black rig armor helmet
Basically everything below the mp5
buoyant mason
All good, personally I'd sell the shotty and knives but that's me ☺️
And the gas mask, you're essentially just making your face stand out more using that 😁
glass storm
I love gas masks
I wanted to sell the shotty
And I'm collecting knives
So I can buy the MP 5
And such
I get for the black grip one something nice too
buoyant mason
Ah I forgot about all those barters, it's not something I use too often 😅
Only real early game barters I take advantage of are hard drives for the MBSS and tushonka tins for 5.45BT 😁
tropic snow
2 harddrives for a 60round ak mag is also swell
dull osprey
How does this work?
buoyant mason

night chasm
I'm a level 5 can anyone help me to get better at the game?
I have basic knowledge just not so used to combat.
buoyant mason
you're a trader with no need to level, please don't break the illusion 💔

anything with a sight is good

at least it isn't the dovetail night vision scope
buoyant mason
it looks horrible lol
buoyant mason
if you have access to the flea and a big enough gun the MBUS iron sights are really nice, i quite often use them even at this stage
buoyant mason
yeah theyre lovely, especially for like 6k or however much they are 😍
wicked falcon
just got my first factory key 🙂

That's disgusting, Tower.
torpid wraith
Anyone wanting to play with a semi newbie?
buoyant mason
never tried those ones 😦
late tangle
They are pretty gross
vague wind
How can i tell that a scav is a player scav?
late tangle
If there is a pouch slot in their inventory
Below backpack
If nothing it's a normal scav
torpid wraith
So is the way to actually do raids doing key runs? Ive just been doing Customs and looting the same spots of little attachments and stuff that I know. Never really see anything outside of a shit ak
late tangle
If you're doing money runs
Or you can do what I do and just got for pure pvp
Go for*
torpid wraith
By money, is it just straight up money, or moneyt as in sick gear
late tangle
If ur going for PvP you can make like 900k in 15 mins
900k in gear that is
Assuming you're winning fights against squads
Money runs are safer and more consistent money
Like you get treasure items and shit
What your doing kinda sounds like money runs without the rewards @torpid wraith
torpid wraith
Yea pretty much
buoyant mason
as a beginner its massively unlikely youre gonna fight, beat the squad, loot and then extract in 15 minutes 😅
torpid wraith
i literally dont know any extract locations on interchange. every map i lookup is so cluttered with info i dont need
buoyant mason
outside in one of four corners, super easy to learn my friend
once you have a rough idea where everything is
torpid wraith
Okay yea i see it now. the way the map i structured is slightly eird
buoyant mason
yeah theres a lot of stuff to learn mate thats why, once you learn where Goshan, Oli and Idea are navigating the map gets massively easier
torpid wraith
goshn is the big open room with fire in places right?
buoyant mason
yeah mate thats the one
sweet dagger
I'm on my 4th game in and loving this!
torpid wraith
can i just dc from an offline raid?
wicked falcon
I've been playing just Woods, Customs, and Factory and I currently know those by heart now. I should probably learn the others as well about now
plucky goblet
yes
wicked falcon
I'm on my 4th day playing
wicked falcon
it was a sad day finding 2 lab keycards on scavs in an offline raid 😔
torpid wraith
yea think im gonna start maining some interchange for a bit. customs and factory are the only ones ive been doing so far
buoyant mason
i only run interchange dude, easy to navigate (once you know) plenty of loot, predictable scav spawns and of course the main man killa
sweet dagger
Anyone else basically shitting themselves in Factory?
buoyant mason
yep, too much going on for me @sweet dagger
wicked falcon
I still need my 6 pmc pistol kills and I've been trying to go factory for that
sweet dagger
I'm just crouching around and all I hear is some dude just wrecking face above, below and beside me.
buoyant mason
its hard at this stage in the wipe because everyone has plenty of gear @wicked falcon
wicked falcon
When is next wipe?
buoyant mason
and yeah its very intense especially if you arent familiar with sound placement and the map itself @sweet dagger
and in about 2 weeks ish
maybe
noone knows a dead on date
we have 'middle of october'
wicked falcon
Interesting
buoyant mason
but soonTM
sweet dagger
Such a cool map though, love the aesthetic of Factory
buoyant mason
i never play unless i quest, ive played it about 20 times since i got the game 😅
sweet dagger
Is there a document on where all the extractions are per map?
sweet dagger
ty @bold kernel
How do you rotate items to put them length ways into your inventory whilst looting?
split vapor
hold the item and hit R
sweet dagger
ty!
regal plover
Hey new players, what brought you to Tarkov? Did you see it in a Youtube video? Was your favourite streamer playing it? Maybe a friend referred you? I'm curious.
sweet dagger
I started playing because I wanted a new shooter game. I was tired of the super arcade stuff and used to play a bit of Arma back in the day. I found this game by watching Shroud an Summit1G @regal plover
Just got my first Kill!
rose echo
@sweet dagger Nice!
tawdry roost
Friend recommended as good shooter. But the lad aint playing to teach meh
sweet dagger
So much adrenalin
hollow dew
I loved the feeling in day z when having firefights with most highend gear (pristine m4 with all prisine attachments, yellow boxes, maxed inventory etc.) and you can have exactly this in EFT from the get go. Loot-Shooter is just insanely good. My hopes are this will get the best game I ever played when the performance gets fixed.
rose echo
@hollow dew totally agree there, I was a DayZ fan myself
burnt owl
how many quests there is in the game that u lose quest item if u die ?
hollow dew
@burnt owl not so many if you take into account the secured containers?
tawdry roost
After 0.12 it will be a bit tad harder
burnt owl
i stucked with the mission to put something in factory
rose echo
That's the only one I can think of to be honest @burnt owl
burnt owl
i get the documents with night raids but i am unlucky in factory xD
tawdry roost
Try to do it during night
hollow dew
@burnt owl yes I struggle with that too in every wipe.
tawdry roost
I remember the quest where you need to fix that sahit in factory with two toolsets
Thats also risky since ya need to escape too
hollow dew
toolset repair mission in factory yeah, this wipe I litterally smoked everything xD
burnt owl
well if u have 5 man group its ok, but its hard to find 5 ppl that want to help xD
hollow dew
no need to get a group to do that. toolsets are not so expensive.
rose echo
He's on about the prapor one I think
burnt owl
yes
rose echo
I can't recall the name lol
hollow dew
the pistol kill mission?
burnt owl
i need it for prapor lv2
rose echo
No when you have to plant the docs from customs in factory
tawdry roost
Pistol kill mission is decent. You buy cheap pistols load decent ammo leg meta camp somebodys ass
burnt owl
Delivery from the past
rose echo
That's the one
hollow dew
yeah I did the pistol mission in 3 raids I think
hollow dew
if you do it early in the wipe its easy. But later there are only juggernauts in factory
burnt owl
in eu right now there alot of newbize
hollow dew
yes because of Summit and Shroud streaming the game, lots of new players
burnt owl
not a lot of ppl with face covers in factory
hollow dew
I used the autopistol that can shred armor, I dunno whats it called. It can kill juggernauts too
burnt owl
yesterday we did meme run with some ppl from lfg, just pistols i got vepor hunter from a scav and killed a jugernat with it
rose echo
APS?
hollow dew
APS yes
burnt owl
i made him a 3rd eye =]
rose echo
Lol nice
lost egret
Synco if you want to noob it up sometime let me know
hollow dew
the hunter you find from scavs has M61 ammunition, it can 1 shot even Gen 4 if you are not unlucky. Its really really strong. A friend of mine plays only hunter or m4
late tangle
Wdym
You can't one shot through gen 4 with m61
Not unless u fragment to the thorax
Only the 7n1 will one shot to the thorax through gen 4
jagged fog
m61 full pen through lvl 6 armor even
hollow dew
@late tangle I killed lots of people with 1 shot of M61 who had gen 4
late tangle
Thats cause it fragmented
Or they were hurt
It does like 71 damage flat
Or something like that
The only 7.62 round that can consistently oneshot to the thorax is m80
And that's level 4 armour and below only
hollow dew
if the bullet fragments, doenst it do like double damage because 1 projectile becomes 2 projectiles?
late tangle
It either does +%50 damage or just 50 more damage
I can't remember which
M61 has like a %13 chance to fragment or something
Idk
regal plover
late tangle
Idk why people like m61 honestly
It has the same time to kill as m80 on level 5 armour
regal plover
I use M62 for sniping and M80 for non-sniping
regal plover
O.o
late tangle
M62 is 2 hits to the thorax no matter what
regal plover
Idk, it's pretty hard to see where your bullets are landing 700m away without M62
late tangle
Ohh
hollow dew
M80 is more competitive, M61 is just because its picked up from scavs , I think I never bought that caliber
late tangle
That's why
buoyant mason
yeah the feedback m62 provides is great
late tangle
I use m80 since I snipe alot and have a good feel for my gun
And I can oneshot through level 4 armour every time
buoyant mason
the real question is why use that caliber to snipe in the first place? 7n1 all the way
late tangle
You have a 17% chance to one shot through level 6 with 7n1
regal plover
Because the R700 sounds awesome and the DVL has low recoil so you can easily see where your shots land at closer ranges
late tangle
It's busted in my opinion
hollow dew
When I snipe then its usually my mosin as 2nd gun. When DVL gets buffed again I would play the suppressed version, I think that would be my favorite weapon but atm its not 1 tapping so I wait for the buff
late tangle
I use m700 cause it's super quite with a SDN
And sex appeal
Its a fucking sexy gun
jagged fog
no u
late tangle
When the SVD gets its surpressor it's gonna be rediculous
regal plover
New guys, be sure to take a look up here when walking by. Nobody does and it makes for easy kills.
hollow dew
lol, I dont play that gun exactly because it has no suppressor. It would be incredible
@regal plover last two times I was shoreline, I got sniped from there.
late tangle
I always forget that spot exists
hollow dew
but my gen 4 took the shot xD
split vapor
smh orb sharing state secerts
late tangle
I like sniping from the rocks near weather station better personally
regal plover
EZ PZ
regal plover
150 usually.
hollow dew
I use x2.5 and not more because FPS, and you play with a what, a x26? xDDDD
regal plover
These 700m shots are harder.
(That's a guy I killed)
Zero to 300 and put the person halfway down the black stripe at the bottom of the scope to hit people on the island.
hollow dew
regal plover
To hit people at tunnel extract, put them at the veeeery bottom of the scope so you only see their head to land the shot
hollow dew
I think everyone knows Pestily? xD
regal plover
Yeah but that's with 2 people cooperating.
regal plover
Wanna see the 700m kill I just landed 2s ago? I'm using the Leupold
late tangle
Sure
regal plover
Zero to 300m with this scope and this is how you hit people on the island from the lighthouse https://streamable.com/0l5e6
late tangle
PMC or scav?
regal plover
That one was a scav. There are usually 2 or 3 there that make for good target practice.
late tangle
Ya I once had 6 just chilling on that tip
torpid wraith
what do earphones do exactly
hollow dew
@torpid wraith it makes you hear things better without your own gunshots being too loud. The max distance you hear footsteps is increased etc.
The technique is called "sound compression" and the earphones have different equalizer-settings.
The most competitive one is the "tactical sports" but it is expensive. The most used/viable by veterans are the "sordins".
regal plover
It's mostly down to personal choice. Most people like the Sordins, followed by the Tactical Sports
Then there are a few people who like the crunchiness of the Comtacs and GSSH
rose echo
I can only use comtacs myself, everything else sounds funky to me
split vapor
Comtacs make everything sound metallic
plucky goblet
sordins best
torpid wraith
hoooooly shit
what a run
i was in Oli and killed 3 pmc's and scavs just keeeept coming and i was so weak. started it off with a broken right arm. the alst dude flashed me and rushed and somehow i managed to kill him. i was so scared of all the scavs i jsut went back outside and ran around the entire complex to NW
Wait....the last dude had dogtags in his inventory. but its ays he was a scav?
eternal helm
Hey! Are we allowed to lfg on this channel?
waxen forge
Player scav that killed a player and took his tags
eternal helm
I'm LVL 4
idle bluff
plucky goblet
@torpid wraith he killed some player then
torpid wraith
Okay also, what is standard medical supplies i should bring for a full length raid?
waxen forge
Ifak if u can get one. Splint and pain meds.
I keep a bottle of ibuprofen in gamma as it last a long time and has 12 uses in each full bottle
torpid wraith
is food/water something i should keep in my stash and bring on raids?
waxen forge
At this point food is not necessary. Energy never drops by much.
I sell my water when we wipe. If you stay the entire time in a 60 minute raid and are very low level you may be down to 5 or so hydration but not at 0
If shot in the stomach you can usually get out before dehydrate and on a lot of maps you can find a drink.
torpid wraith
so there are a shit ton of aks in this game. what are good ones ?
alpine hull
Honestly
alpine hull
at the start before heavy modding, it's less about how good a gun is and how good a shot you are
torpid wraith
im not terrible
alpine hull
crappy gun with a good shooter will beat out a guy with end game gear if they cant shoot for shit
buoyant mason
7.62 hits hard but lags behind late wipe due to not being high pen PLUS it bounces around like crazy
torpid wraith
i just got a fully decked 556 ak102
alpine hull
its not bad with decent ammo
buoyant mason
the 556 ak variants are usually not worth buying
MDR will do a better job cheaper thanks to the flea
torpid wraith
just trying to figure out if i should deconstuct the scopes and shit or use it
winged meadow
rain on parade*
alpine hull
worth pointing out the 102 does have the highest possible muzzle velocity in the game
buoyant mason
plus the m4 has a lot higher firerate than the 556 ak, youll usually drop people quicker 😄
alpine hull
right mods and m995 its a freaking lazer with almost no lead time needed
buoyant mason
like i say mate, have a play around and see what you like! 😄
its all opinion based as the right single shot in the right place is usually all it takes 😄
alpine hull
yeah in the end it's a lot of personal preference
torpid wraith
mkaymkay. i just have a shit ton of stuff and not alot of space after a huge raid i just had
torpid wraith
why is it not letting me repair the helmt i have? its 48 of 53
plucky goblet
what helmet
torpid wraith
kolpak
plucky goblet
probably not lpw enough for the trader you try to repair with
eh
just sell it
its a useless helmet
glossy osprey
kolpak not even worth it
plucky goblet
makes you deaf and doesn't protect in any way
torpid wraith
i cant 😦
waxen forge
Never bother with motorcycle or fireman helmets.
Muffle hearing and won't stop rounds
Just sell it to fence if it's too damaged for Skier to buy it
torpid wraith
none of the merchants will buy it. im assuming because its damaged
plucky goblet
then just delete it honestly
torpid wraith
oh i swear the fence said he couldnt buy it
waxen forge
Move it in your stash (just move to another spot to fix the bug if it's the bug) then sell it to Fence
torpid wraith
yea lol 3k
waxen forge
There is an occasional bug in which a trader won't buy something that they certainly do buy. IF you go back to stash and move the item then return to the trader it will work.
torpid wraith
gotcha
proven field
whats the wiener helmet
torpid wraith
ssh 68
waxen forge
Howdy @proven field Yup the penis helmet...Not bad really
proven field
@waxen forge hey man 😚
everyone always says penis helm but i never knew what it was lmao
waxen forge
It's cheap and effective
torpid wraith
i thought some people were saying the sks doesnt have a suppressor?
waxen forge
No you can suppress the SKS
plucky goblet
it does
torpid wraith
how do iget keycard for labs? just on random scavs anywhere?
plucky goblet
that, scav bosses, drawers on shoreline and labs itself
also therapist ll2 sells them as well as mechanic got a trade 1 bitcoin for 1 card, but don't do that
torpid wraith
alrighty. also if anyone wants to group im down.
waxen forge
Buy from Therapist at level 2 or 3...Or buy from Flea
twin rock
lfg message me
neon barn
Hey is there anywhere a noob like me can find a group?
stoic parrot
yes
torpid wraith
do the dogtags say the persons name that you killed or are they jst the same names?
split vapor
Dog tags say the players name and level along with who killed them,when and how
@torpid wraith
torpid wraith
alright. so what would be the best course of action if iwanted to get into labs? should i just hunt killa?
waxen forge
Just buy a card off the flea
split vapor
Labs boring
Raiders too easy now
Labs 1.0 raiders best. Basically aim bot you if you double peak
lapis mauve
if you want to go labs buy a keycard from therapist/flea, bring a pistol and maybe a backpack and kill a raider
instant profit
or grab some expensive items and stuff them in your container
livid atlas
How long have yall found it to take to to get max AR and recoil skills
I kinda dont have alot of spare time so I cant really "hardcore grind this game"
lapis mauve
my highest skill is 23. recoil is 15. but this is the first wipe i played a lot, i hear they don't always wipe skills?
sweet dagger
ty!
torpid wraith
my keycard wont get used up if i do offline labs right?
split vapor
yeah
solid gulch
hello, i started playing yesterday and a friend told me tha will a wipe comming out.... what is this wipe? and when it cames out?
zinc egret
wipe means your progress starts again
you lose whatever you have in your stash, and start fresh
solid gulch
ooooh, and when will it happen?
zinc egret
maybe in the next couple of weeks
glossy osprey
they havent released a date
solid gulch
ty both!!! @glossy osprey @zinc egret
bold kernel
@livid atlas you need more than 100 000 rounds shooted to max level recoil
torpid wraith
how much do all those levels affect your performance
fallen briar
^ was about to ask
eternal helm
does it last past wipe
zinc egret
usually no
doesnt carry over between wipes
i mean i answered right after them, but i gotcha
np. i am too
fallen briar
ok so i got the game yesterday, and i killed a geared guy who had a decked out m4a1, should i sell or ?
he had like a helmet with a faceshield as well, dont know the name
zinc egret
might as well use it at the point. try it our in offline to get a feel for it
zinc egret
it's a good time to get over gear fear
obtuse folio
wtfffffff just happened
obtuse folio
i went into a woods with a gun i have just spent an hour modding and a really good gun some guy let me have the other day plus some loot i had stacked in bags, im sure it was offline mode and my game crashed so when i reconnected i abandoned because i thought it wouldnt matter but i lost everything. is that a bug or am i just stupid
zinc egret
@fallen briar ammo is most important, and armour is second imo
obtuse folio
thats sooooooooo fucked
just wanted to test it looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
zinc egret
haven't had any issue swith offline @obtuse folio
torpid wraith
ive been one tapping with that setup. but im big noob still
zinc egret
seems fine. bp is better, but ps is fine for what you have access to @fallen briar
also, newcastle brown is the bomb
fallen briar
hell yeah
zinc egret
good luck out there
fallen briar
cheers 🙂
obtuse garden
whats ur username
regal plover
Don't worry! That's normal in the beginning.
You're going to be dying a lot to start off.
torpid wraith
if i actually left my que i can paly as well. still waiting for the game to respond
stoic parrot
ohh gimmie a sec
obtuse garden
Sweet
stoic parrot
didnt think people would help so quickly lol
obtuse garden
i got bored of playing solo, none of my friends have this game lol
torpid wraith
saaaame
obtuse garden
and squading up in-game takes sooo long
torpid wraith
okay im mega scared.
my game refuses to open after i alt tabbed. i dont want to quit cause idk if i qued into map already
sand apex
you get 3 minutes to reconnect
obtuse garden
oo good to know
regal plover
Pro-tip: Don't ALT-TAB during the "Map Loading" part of the loading screen. You've got a 50/50 chance of crashing.
The rest is mostly fine
obtuse garden
alt tabbing in general when a games loading or starting ups been known to bug it out sometime too
regal plover
It's happened to me a couple times that if I Al-Tab in the couple moments after extraction my game crashes and I lose everything from that raid... so wait the few extra seconds until you get to the stats screen.
obtuse garden
mines the same as my discord name
stoic parrot
oo
torpid wraith
alright first question. how to add people
obtuse garden
go to the messenger button on the bottom right
and click the friends tab top right
obtuse garden
I only have guns and nothing to sort of.. Protect myself
torpid wraith
do face/eye slots actually do anything or are they just extra little loot
i got some shit if yall want. i need to clean house a little
obtuse garden
In this game since theres zero hud, it might be nice to have everyone wear unique clothing
but yea i dont think they do anything
torpid wraith
im in tri echo btw
torpid wraith
yea idk why he joined
regal plover
Kindly ask them to leave?
Get ready to jump in quick if they do Zayo, before somebody else does again
stoic parrot
quad alpha mabye XD
regal plover
Nice.
summer ibex
can extractions be blocked if another player is close?
just had a player scav walk up on me at roadblock on customs, and i hit the extract timer to 0 three times and couldnt extract
ended up having to walk to a different one
split vapor
You dont need to do anything to extract you just walk up to it if it is yours
summer ibex
thats so wierd. maybe it was a bug. I had the 7 second extract timer countdown 3 different times and it would not remove me from the game
split vapor
those pretty little features
ha
yeah those can happen
timer goes to 0 and nothing
same with where you get to an extract and no timer pops up
summer ibex
yeah i wasnt really sure, cause in a different game (Hunt: Showdown) if an enemy team is close enough to the extract you cant leave until they move away or you kill them.
split vapor
The only extracts where you need to do something are the few payed Truck exits
regal plover
There are no extracts that can be blocked by other players. What happened to you was a bug that doesn't happen too often
sweet dagger
If you're a Scav how long should you wait until Extract? I got the left early thing and didn't have enough XP?
regal plover
You need... I think it was 600 EXP to not get the left early status.
NVM it's 300
The Guide
I literally just checked that quest page because I remembered writing down the required EXP amount there lol
In total, of all time?
uhhh lemme check
sweet dagger
ok ty for info
regal plover
So there have been at least 1903 people who have done (logged in) edits of *some capacity) over the entire life of the wiki. This includes fixing a single character spelling mistake.
I think I looked it up before and the top 10 editors have done something like 95% of the work on the wiki though
So it's really only a small group of people who do a substantial amount
Looks nervously at 0.12 😰
Not atm
I just finished manually categorizing 4251 images into 126 categories a couple days ago
That was the last big thing afaik
Yeah, that was a pita
So, so much...
Oh, and I was only including the English wiki in the editors count I showed above. We actually have it in 4 languages.
The French one was recently completed
the German and Russian one need quite a lot of love
We had some hard workers on it
You know how I said the ENG wiki had over 1900 contributors of all time? The French wiki has had 35.
@nocturne kestrel Did most of it. He's a beast.

I'm trying to trade Ragman for a backpack, he requires something that is in my stash. I hit Fill Items and it shows a green checkmark and Deal! at the top, however I can't do anything else? How do I get it into my stash?
regal plover
Do you have room in your stash for the backpack?
sweet dagger
Yes I do, I backed out whet back to Character and found it in my stash, ty tho
torpid wraith
do scavs become aggro when you kill player scav?
regal plover
If the other player scav hits you first the scav's won't aggro you for killing them
noble blade
Dis guy is cool ^
split vapor
torpid wraith
i have made a terrible mistake
rose echo
Scav on scav violence? Lol
torpid wraith
i have palced a massive fucking night vision scope on my hunter
not knowing how absoultey huge of a zoom this thing is lmao
rose echo
Oh dear lol, does it have variable zoom? What scope is it?
torpid wraith
NSPU-M
rose echo
Ah right, no that one doesn't I don't think, if no good you could just take it off if you have a flashlight?
Put in in your secure container or drop it in a bush if insured
torpid wraith
nah i just brought a pistol. i was wanting to amke this a sort of sniper in the nest run. just chill and kill some players rotating
regal plover
That's the worst scope in the game, hands-down.
Good luck trying to use it.
If you manage a kill with the scope i'll give you a million roubles.
On a PMC
rose echo
I'll match that, so two million
heavy forge
Hello, just got this game. Anyone wanna party up? Apologize if this is in the wrong area.
heavy forge
tyvm sorry gl!
lucid cove
Damn theres like no room in these stashes
torpid wraith
im gonna camp this trailer extract crossing and get this 2mill kill if i have to mia for it
regal plover
The trick is to not be a horder
torpid wraith
I think i might be the only one left in this lobby.
rose echo
Umm I don't think suicide would count, @regal plover? 😂
buoyant mason
@torpid wraith how go the raids, made any progress since yesterday?
torpid wraith
sorry boys. i couldnt do it. i just dont run into alot of people in my raids
dont know what it is
regal plover
On your launcher change your server from auto-select to a bunch.
torpid wraith
also @buoyant mason yea! i had a really sick Interchange run where i got 2 pmc kills, 1 player scav, and 13 scav kills. walked away with 2 decked guns alot of good bags and kits. turned that into a mini labs run. got a sick rig from there. just cruisin a little now.
buoyant mason
Sounds good mate, glad everything is working out for you 😎
rose echo
No worries @torpid wraith it was a pretty tall order
torpid wraith
if i had just SEEN someone. it would have been doable. i heard 2 sets of shots the entire game. camped gas station and camped the crossing to trailers. NOTHIN
rose echo
If you need a bit of extra cash anyway let me know. But yes at the moment night raids are pretty quiet
torpid wraith
big sad. and thanks but nah. im not good enough yet to need anymore then what i have rn. especially with this wipe im hearing all about coming up
rose echo
Soon can't come soon enough, can't wait for the patch!
torpid wraith
do they talk about anything it is going to include or is it all up in the air
regal plover
Lots upcoming. Here's one of the big features: https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Hideout
Browse the gallery there
New map too, bosses, guns, quests, etc. Basically a couple big new features and a huge amount on content
buoyant mason
I love when new guys turn down free shit, keeps the mystery alive
torpid wraith
sounds dope.
buoyant mason
When I was new putting a sight on a gun classed as me modding it 😅
buoyant mason
Dovetail?☺️
torpid wraith
idk what youre asking
regal plover
BTW the wiki has all the weapon mods and how they connect linked together.
Go to the page for any mod/gun and you can see what can directly connect to it
torpid wraith
why wouildnt it show up in a linked search on the wepaon?
buoyant mason
Worst case scenario although less than ideal buy a Socom rail and plonk the sight on that 😅
regal plover
Dunno. It should always be there since Skier LL2 sells it, unless it sold out and nobody was listing any.
torpid wraith
just bought one searching for it maunally
regal plover
Flashbacks to when traders had a limited amount of money and frequently ran out
buoyant mason
I'm glad I wasn't around for that 😅
regal plover
Yup. Trader Resets. They have 20 million for that hour.
If they run out, tough luck. Hopefully enough people buy stuff from that trader so you can sell your stuff.
It was a bit harsh.
buoyant mason
At least it was hourly and not every restock in terms of the times we have now 😅
regal plover
Mainly because it wasn't balanced properly against the amount of people playing and the amount of stuff being sold
buoyant mason
With her insane prices and somewhat lack of usefulness I imagine therapist was always broke
regal plover
Actually it was usually Prapor. There were only 4 traders back then and Prapor had all the guns people wanted.
Well, 5 if you include Fence.
buoyant mason
Gonna miss fence 😢
regal plover
He might stick around. Specialize in selling people's unclaimed insured gear.
buoyant mason
That'd be great, he's got more potential, especially with that 'shadow connections' skill they may one day add
nocturne kestrel
Hello @regal plover
regal plover
Good morning and goodnight Titi. Just in time to see me head off to bed. 💤
torpid wraith
whats the meta for dogtags
lilac forge
LL4 ragman for cowboy hat -> LL1 mechanic for glock
buoyant mason
I'm guilty of just giving them to therapist not gonna lie 😅
lilac forge
they do sell for a fair bit
regal plover
I can't be assed to do the barters. I just sell them all. A full dogtag pouch worth of tags usually sells for just over a million.
buoyant mason
Sell the poop ones, keep the TTV ones 😅
nocturne kestrel
@regal plover night night ;)
I personally trade dogtags for Zhuk-6a since I use them
buoyant mason
Can't say I've ever used it with the sheer convenience of raiders dropping gen4 everywhere 😅
tawdry roost
Lab hoe 😂
buoyant mason
Basically, that and killa armour, I have about 15 full sets stashed at the moment 😅
bitter cradle
hi peeps.. new player here...
do AI scav turn hostile to me if i kill another player scav
even if he shoots me first
split vapor
Yeah
bitter cradle
aw man
split vapor
But if said player scav shoots and hits you and kill him they shouldn’t turn hostile
bitter cradle
ahh so if they shoot me first then its greenlight for me to kill him
Thanks for the info 🙂
split vapor
Gotta get hit first
bitter cradle
aight... cheers mate
tawdry roost
I hatte that scav on scav violence.
chrome flume
hello i need you help, i play like a scav in your game on map customs. but i cant leave on exits i look on the internet wheres are the exit but when i go there it wont let me escape please tell me where are the exits or how its work escaping like a scav
summer ibex
@chrome flume scavs have slightly different extracts than PMCS do
some of them are the same, but most are not
chrome flume
so where are exits for scavs on map customs?
chrome flume
i dont know where are the exits
chrome flume
caled?
chrome flume
crosroad
late tangle
and?
chrome flume
and bunkers
late tangle
what side of the map are you on?
chrome flume
west
late tangle
where in the west?
near big red?
or in containers?
cause you need to be on the road as far west as you can be
then go at the north end of it
chrome flume
no, no i em dead but i want the know how its work, so on every raid is a diferent exit?
late tangle
if ur doing a pmc raid on customs
you spawn on either the west side (big red side)
or the east side (construction/dorms side)
and you always have to go to the other side of the map
across the river
you can see the river on the map right?
chrome flume
yes
late tangle
you are always gonna have to cross that no matter where you spawn
and you can either have crossroads and trailer park extract
if you spawn on the east side that is
or you will have zb-1011 and zb-1011
if you spawn on the west side
chrome flume
so theres are 2 sides and on every side is 1 exit?
late tangle
you will always have 2 extracts on the other side of the map on customs
you either go from east to west
or west to east
and have 2 options when you get there
there are more extracts along the way that you can learn about later
but those close if someone else uses them
chrome flume
so on other side is two exits and exits that will cloce when somebody use them?
late tangle
no the ones that close you will find on the same side you spawned on
but the ones on the other side of the map never close
always open for business
chrome flume
one time i spaw on the east side and i go on the west side on crosroad, bit it wont work
chrome flume
scav
late tangle
thats why
you have to check which extracts you have by double tapping O
then you can look on the bottom left of the maps for the extracts
chrome flume
so if i pres double o, I EM GONNA SEE ON MAP WHERE ARE MY EXITS?
late tangle
it tells you the name of the extracts
you look at the map i sent and you figure out where they are
chrome flume
whats are the blue exits?
late tangle
scav only exits
late tangle
they are all numbered
and in the bottom left is the names that go with the numbers
under exit points
chrome flume
i cant read the exits names its too much pixelated
late tangle
any time
glass storm
Why does the scavs 360noscope me ?
Killed the fuckers friend from a hundred meters away and then I saw shot at him twice and he just snapshot me
bold kernel
how do i know what ammo my guns needs
broken quailBOT
plucky goblet
check there
bold kernel
thanks
sweet dagger
How many knife hits does it take to down a Scav?
sweet dagger
I got 5 stabs in, so more than that xD
late tangle
What kind of knife
late tangle
Cause the antique axe and tomahawk will one shot with right click to unarmored head
sweet dagger
oh those sound cool
sweet dagger
oh never knew that
wicked falcon
Just killed reshala for the first time at dorms. I've never been more scared in my life, at least 5 grenades HIT me and stunned twice but still lived.
bold kernel
Gratz man I still haven’t taken out only killa once on accident
wicked falcon
I have most of the good keys for dorms like the guard desk and marked (and a couple other rooms with safes) so I was just doing a tri-zip run with a PM w/ drum mag
I killed one of his guards and picked up the AKS and body armor
regal plover
Good morning
wicked falcon
I have the screen shot still I think. Only killed 2 guards, 2 random scavs, reshala, then gtfo
Good morning
regal plover
For all you guys that just got the game, you're being thrown right in the deep end at the moment lol. Raiders everywhere!
wicked falcon
I've been playing around 2 weeks now 🙂
regal plover
Hope you're ready for a fight then ;-)
wicked falcon
I've got my F1's and my pom juice
regal plover
Perfect
tawdry roost
problem with raiders they dont have l33t gear as in labs
regal plover
This should help: https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Scav_Raiders
They used to be PMC's but turned into scavs, so they'll be yelling at you with the Russian and USEC voice lines.
torpid wraith
how good is the pp-19 with ap6.3 bullets? i got it from a pmc the other day and used it a little. feels like it takes alot to kill. how does it compare to other subs
regal plover
The PP-19 is probably the cheapest of the submachine guns
buoyant mason
9mm is 9mm bud, not much fun at this stage in the wipe
simple hawk
lel I didn't realise this channel existed. I'm blind LOL
buoyant mason
👀
lapis mauve
with 9x19 you usually want to shoot heads, or legs with rip maybe
simple hawk
Sooo are groups better than solo or is it like a preference thing?
buoyant mason
depends on your play style and preference mate, i prefer 3's but thats just me
simple hawk
aight. Idk if i want to group with someone tbh. I just started like yesterday anyway. Eh doubt anyone would want a n00b anyway
tawdry roost
some people actually do want to take nooblet and teach something
buoyant mason
its nice to get to grips with the game first, once you're semi comfortable on your own you wont happily take or get used to a carry 🙂
tawdry roost
just try to have some gear dont go naked
simple hawk
yeh. I got unlucky. Had like one AK and shotgun and ton a gunparts. Then I died just as one of the americans said something of "SCREW YOU RUSKIE" or something like that.
tawdry roost
scav/raider
buoyant mason
yeah the raiders at the moment are really unforgiving
tawdry roost
but thats what i heard i never witnessed the wipe my self so
buoyant mason
pre wipe is for about a week usually 😄
tawdry roost
be carefull its not that hard
buoyant mason
raiders mainly use shit rounds, wear decent armour and a faceshield
tawdry roost
just invest some dosh into good ammo
i dont have nor i run any decent weapon
running always some sort of ak74* or ak10*
tawdry roost
get atleast pistol with good ammo
glass storm
Tired of using anythink
tawdry roost
i rekt 4raiders with scav on faktory brought back 2 m4a1s 2 used armors 3 helms 2 backpacks
thats a gear fear lad start earning and loosing stuff
glass storm
Meh
How can I discard fast
Is there bind for it ?
I can equip and store bz ctrl,alt+right clck
Examine mms
For example
Ty
Any keys to know
tawdry roost
did they just make raiders scav friendly?
tawdry roost
some wierd stuff sometimes raiders aggro on me on factory sometimes i just can walk as they would be scavs
formal laurel
Do raiders attack p scavs?
regal plover
@glass storm Press "Show Controls" https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/How_to_Play_Guide_for_Escape_from_Tarkov#Controls
tawdry roost
yes/no
glass storm
Danke
tawdry roost
sometimes they just blast my arse sometimes they ignore my arse
fallen briar
bro ive tried this delivery from the past mission like 3 times , ive got the docs 3 times and died in factory all attempts
any tips
and im bringing in decent gear
there just seems to always be one geared guy who dominates the map
buoyant mason
night raids with a buddy and some cheap night vision?
lapis mauve
a lucky spawn helps, going in with some other people makes it easier. with a 5 man group there is only 1 other person
lapis mauve
i wouldn't try it now, with raiders and more players at factory than normal
lapis mauve
before today i was doing quests so i know what to do next wipe (since this is the first wipe i played a lot). now i'm not sure if i will still try doing them
tawdry roost
just skip quests at this point... raiders are laser shooting factory is just big massacare
bloodbath
fallen briar
ugh just went in a raid i legit cant survive now
tawdry roost
the prewipe events are happening so i would just do what i do
practice combat and do alot of pew pew
viscid raven
will raiders kill scavs?
tawdry roost
50/50
i have mixed feelings sometimes they blast my face sometimes they completely ignore me
tight kite
Guess I can no longer chop scavs so I'll just sneak up on a dead body, loot and run.
tawdry roost
technically they should aggro you imidiatly
torpid wraith
I litereally just spawned in with 3 looking at me. so i think the game thinks they shouldnt\
i killed the first one immediately cause i wasnt sure.
do these raiders....ever...fucking...stop....pushing
they never stop i can never loot
rancid hawk
they don't stop
Labs raiders just continue looking for threat
So i suppose those raiders do aswell
ashen trail
how can i stop dying so easy haha
sand apex
Stop playing... Easiest way to stop dying lol
proven field
The games dofficulty is turned up to like 10 from a 2 rn @ashen trail
Just for a week or less until the next big tarkov patch hits
ashen trail
so it was a perfect time to just buy the game haha
reef spoke
You will die a lot.
play scav raids til you get the hang of it, as those are free kit and will reduce the difficulty somewhat
ashen trail
ive been playing for a week now and i just game from console so its a bit of a learning curve
proven field
Have you ever used mouse and keyboard for a shooter? Or only used controller?
ashen trail
pretty much only contoller
im getting used to mouse and keyboard tho, getting alot better
proven field
Haha good, I was going to say you could look up games called aim trainers, they just have you try to click circles as fast as you can
Gets you used to using a mouse to aim
steady pilot
@ashen trail oh yeah not having the mouse and keyboard skills firsthand will not help
@ashen trail play offline mode as much as you can you dont lose kit nor do you gain
But it's fantastic map knowledge and good experience killing scavs
proven field
Offline mode is so fun if you turn on horde amount of AI on easy difficulty
ashen trail
honestly i just get the feeling that enemys are eating bullets and i die in 1 or two shots,. that goes for player scavs, scavs and pmc haha
even when i use decent armour, helmet and best rounds for my gun
proven field
There’s a lot to learn in this game, like a lot but it’s so fun to learn and feel like you have a grip on it. One of the things you can learn is different types of ammo and his armor penetration works
Also this late in the wipe all the players are running the best gear, best bullets, best armor etc
It’s a difficult time lol
ashen trail
ive noticed haha any idea when the next wipe is?
cold hull
what does changing the magazine on a gun do, say i change a stanag to a drum, does that affect all my stanag mags or
what
rancid hawk
no? you just have one drum mag and a bunch of stanags ready for reload
bold kernel
that change the ergo of the weapon @cold hull
steady pilot
@ashen trail literally wipe is within a week. Learn the game as much as you can now. Early wipe is the BEST time to play for fun n gun shit
bold kernel
does any one know if theres a key to open this room at power station on shoreline
split vapor
There is not
I'm pretty sure you used to be able to jump through the windows but I believed they added an invisible wall to it
bold kernel
was something else inside than a weapon crate?
fickle python
I have level 2 vendors unlocked, but still feel like I'm outmatched. What's a good kit for not going broke and dealing with late game players/raiders?
regal plover
A Hunter will deal with the armor everybody is wearing.
lapis mauve
any gun that shoots 7.62x51/54
summer ibex
a hunter can two tap anyone to the chest i believe, and one shot basically every helmet that isnt killas
m61 ofc
regal plover
I'm partial to M80 for CQC and M62 for long range, personally.
stoic parrot
anyone wanna do some runs
steady pilot
Orbb that is the most ass backward logic
Not to mention its horrid drop rate
Correct
wicked falcon
y’all are gonna be so proud of me
I decided to spend all of my money and put it into high class armor and a kitted out SA
and I got my first squad wipe
I didn’t loot much because I just wanted to gtfo
It was on factory
sweet dagger
Where are the players? Trying to play Shoreline. Is there no PMC/Player scavs on that map?
bronze storm
@sweet dagger check that you didnt join a single player lobby by accident
sweet dagger
How would I check that? @bronze storm
Also is it a strat to sit in a corner and be the last alive on Factory and just loot everything and dip?
bronze storm
When you join a lobby, clicking the next button goes to the single player option, just make sure thats unchecked.
rose echo
Nice one @wicked falcon!
sour wing
is it worth spamming full auto in a corner just to level up a gun skill level?
regal plover
@sweet dagger I'm doing Shoreline and finding plenty of PMC's. In fact, one just dropped an R700 shot right into my eyes 40m into the raid lol
Just ask @livid spear , he saw it.
He's also dodging that same sniper atm so he may be a min
sweet dagger
@regal plover When I'm playing I tend to spawn near Tunnel and progress my way along the Shoreline. I find a Player Scav by the Barge and a few more Scavs by the Lighthouse. Other than that I don't see many. I have found a few recently though. Probably just bad luck
livid spear
I looked at you to see where you were aiming and then saw your body go limp lmfao
regal plover
I routinley stay 40-50m on Shoreline
livid spear
i love shoreline
regal plover
Shoot things 150-850m away
livid spear
lmao
regal plover
Usually chat here while waiting
livid spear
i usually just kill scavs and loot
regal plover
The prey always comes eventially
livid spear
i can make decent money looting shoreline
regal plover
I'm just here for the kills, I don't need any more money lol
regal plover
I haven't been bringing in backpacks for like 2 months now
livid spear
lmfao wow
i think i'll get there maybe in a year or so
at least i'll have a full wipe this time
regal plover
You get out Commander?
regal plover
Nice.
regal plover
Np. I'm about to hop back in and do the same thing.
Eat some food while sitting up there
regal plover
Unless a raider blacks my stomach and/or arms again.....
livid spear
no helmet will stop that gun
is that what happened on lighthouse
my bad
should've noticed sooner
regal plover
Some helmets have a ricochet chance. Will bounce any bullet regardless of pen stats
livid spear
i've seen summit1g kill Killa with a saiga-9
shot him in the neck lmao
what
bro i swear
i watched it live
he said "I should use the saiga-9 more often" lmao
his buddy said nooooo
upstairs interchange
2nd level
livid spear
maybe i'm getting confused with where me and my buddies fought him, but he definitely killed Killa at interchange with a saiga-9.
i'll find a clip
i think it was neck
i heard you can't shoot through the eye slit
he was shooting his head
yeah
regal plover
Somebody else could have drained its durability.
regal plover
I've 1-shot killa in the legs with a shotgun ebcause somebody else nearly killed him before me
