Skip, we need the 762x25 P41 round for when the PPSH comes
modern dragon
Oh, that's... actually a fair point.
I didn't realize the PPSH was chambered in 762x25
That gun is so fun to use in Squad as a Raider.
modern pilot
so the quest that needs 10 pmc kills in the office area
split vapor
Yeah,
modern pilot
what is the limits on that
split vapor
idk
modern dragon
Office Area of... what map?
modern pilot
i just killed 3 pmcs in the hallway and they didnt count
split vapor
factory
modern pilot
factory
modern dragon
Oh, good question.
split vapor
might need to be in the office?
modern pilot
so i legit have to camp inside the room
modern pilot
big gay
split vapor
Skip
modern dragon
And maybe even the door between rooms.
Wow, that's some whack shit
I wonder if we will get barrels of explosive/incendiary stuff that we could blow up or light on fire with those rounds eventually.
modern pilot
dear bsg make quests great again lmao
modern pilot
because a quest that requires you to camp a room for at least 3 raids is pretty dumb
modern dragon
Like, if anything gets fixed besides optimizing the maps and game, it's Skills and Quests.
Skills are literally BS.
Like who would think "Let's just yeet 812659864561 grenades to level up Strength!"
modern dragon
Or, Let's get my leg chopped by my friend and bandage it up in order to become better at healing myself!
modern pilot
makes it stupid hard to lvl without cheese
modern dragon
Like, instead of the Skills being required to make the next tier of Hideout place, the Hideout item should increase the Cap for that skill.
split vapor
tbh playing the game normally got me up to strength like 10. last patch
modern dragon
Do you play constantly Overloaded?
stone surge
are legs and arms always considered 0 armor?
modern dragon
Basically yeah.
We don't have Kneepads or Shinguards sadly.
That's why the Leg Meta is a thing
Just black their legs and then they can't do anything!
split vapor
the only arm armor we have is with 6b43 and Gen 4 assault and the full kit
rich cloak
modern dragon
Weird, the NA tag seemingly isn't working.
Like, I have it marked in the Setup area
It just doesn't get applied to me.
hot swan
hey im just looking for tips for the new hideout. like whats best for me to upgrade first and stuff?
modern dragon
Med Station first.
Med Station will reduce the time and money you will spend on Out Of Raid Healing
hot swan
alright thanks. so whatever is needed just try and get med station maxed out?
hot swan
cool thanks a lot
modern dragon
Generator, and then Solar Plant
Because the Generator powers other stuff, and the Solar Plant reduces the Fuel Consumption of your Generator.
Eventually you will want to get the Bitcoin Farm because that is a constant source of Income and, well Bitcoins...
Don't forget to do Tasks also.
Those are required to level up Traders, which some Trader levels are requirements for certain things in the Hideout.
kindred thorn
What exactly is required to breach doors? I've played the game for a bit, but it was a long while ago. Returned after patch, and I can't breach any doors
I remember I was able to do it
would crowbar or hatchet help, or leveling some stat?
modern dragon
Nope.
Some doors need a Key, and if you can't Open said door, you only see the Breach option. If you can Open it, you see the Open AND the Breach option.
Breaching a door is used to get the jump on an enemy but it's Loud as fuck.
brisk mortar
There are only a few doors you can actually breach: Unlocked doors, and one of the doors in the factory office hall.
kindred thorn
I see, well I forgot quite a few things apparently
modern dragon
Usually you will use the Breach option with a Flashbang to stun an enemy and make them basically unable to do anything.
It's a common tactic in military/SWAT operations.
kindred thorn
yea yea, I'm aware. I just though you'd be able to breach some locked doors. Turns out it's not the case
stone surge
So in terms of attachments and ammo, what are the most important traders to get up first?
I assume prapor and skier?
hidden thorn
where do i find the maps

bold kernel
Any suggestions for new players with a small amount of money and inventory room?
stone surge
dissemble weapons you most likely wont use anyways
and sell them to skier and leftovers to mechanical
bold kernel
So don't sell the full gun?
bold kernel
Ah, okay.
stone surge
I mean you could, then I would sell it to prapor, but only do it if you dont have inventory space to dissemble them
because you'll make a loss
bold kernel
Also, is there a way to get Weapon cases or better pouches? Without spending hella money?
stone surge
dissembling and selling to skier leftovers to mechanical
also helps leveling them towards tier 2
prapor you cn just powerlevel with 100-150k
Hideouts are the only way to get inventory space
and there's a case, but it's quite expensive i believe
and wallets for storing money saves a few slots
bold kernel
Also, where can I find an electric motor so I can start my Bitcoin miner?
stone surge
No clue, i haven't bitcoin mined yet
bold kernel
That's my goal, I'm not sure if it is worth it.
It takes a lot of parts, and atleast 100k
stone surge
from the hideout vids it's def worth it if you collect the bitcoins regularly
bold kernel
Oh sick! I'm just missing the intelligence system.
Is there a specific place on a map to get PC parts like CPUs?
Like a best place?
hidden scarab
hey guys just a quick question, how hard is interchange, im fairly new to tarkov been trying too learn the maps a bit but ive only been in interchange like twice
stone surge
interchange is imho pretty hard
there's a lot of scavs, hard to hide/dissapear once spotted. But once you're out you can almost always make it.
that's my experience atleast 😛
it's easier than factory and labs though
stone surge
Maybe it's biased, but I find factory quite hard.
bold kernel
It's the PVP?
stone surge
once you get into a shootout, it generally snowballs into a huge ass fight in small rooms
and it's hard to make it out as victor and extract
hidden scarab
where are the loot spots in interchange?
jaunty timber
If I have the "Loyalty Buyout" quest for skier, does that mean I have to do it to get new quests? Or is it only to get the trader influence back?
split vapor
@jaunty timber don’t do the trust regain tasks it’s just a waste as just doing another quest nets you the same thing and more

After one weekend of playing, the game got more intense and more enjoyable
But I still dont understand the modifications. I sometimes just want to add a simple red dot sight on my AK. I buy many different parts but in the end I cant fit any red dot sight

Yes I know but I cannot see if a sight matches to the cover I want to mount to my AK

how does upgrading the stash work? i only have 1.2m and it says i can upgrade even tho the requirements are 3.5m

You just need to have a 3.5mil value in your stash?

urban silo
@bold kernel So you have 1.2m cash and 2.3m value of weapon and parts?
stark rain
If I go offline mode and switch AI to both specs easy but enable bosses, will the boss teams still be the same like online?
bold kernel
yeah i guess
upgrading now
spent maybe 350k buying all the shit for it but its worth it for 100 total extra slots
urban silo
Nice congrats
bold kernel
i found one keytool in the marked room on customs and made 1.2 mill off it so i was cheerin
also got the key worth a mill or so off a scav but im def keeping that
i got af ew lucky raids
even f ound a flash drive on a pc in interchange
so yeah if youre really fucked for cash id say just sell guns you arent gonna use
cash and space
as i was
urban silo
Yes I do
bold kernel
just sell guns you arent gonna use
i had so many kitted out AKs and i was rly reluctant to sell them
but i thought if i was never gonna use em theres no point
just waste of space
urban silo
Yes I do the same just have maybe one or two spare
urban silo
but anyway I wouldnt have more space than for maybe 5-6 aks
bold kernel
i use scoped mosin + that as my budget kit
yeah its a bit gay you can spend 100 dollars to get a fucking stupid huge stash but i guess they gotta incentivise it somehow
bold kernel
yeah that too
urban silo
Or can you upgrade you container as well?
bold kernel
nah
you can buy them
but the one you get with the speshul edition is huge
plus all the guns you get that you can just sell
you can sit at several million at the start of a new wipe
i wish the shit went out of my inverntory when i was building it tho
the screws and hand drill are still takin up space

I mostly run shoreline, and i like it, still waiting for that red keycard spawn

scav runs on interchange can net some good shit
even if you avoid fighting and extract with 5-10 mins left you can get some good scraps

Yeah, thats not too bad!

Shoreline is easy too
Shorline and interchange have least probability for pmc contact
Cause of how much you can rotate
steady pilot
Customs is bottlenecked pathways. Woods is bottlenecked to either being near shore or along wall.
Yes
But you have multiple multiple pathways
Unless you go to high loot areas it's nearly impossible to find someone sometimes
They usually extract camp tho
cerulean cape
imo shoreline way less likely to run into pmc than interchange.... interchange i always seem to find people, but i also am basically only doign scavruns cause i want to get used to map before i risk much, and when i do pmc i do lowgear shit, need to invest in some decent armor

I cant reset game profile only on 17 november

Salewa can be found in Mantis on Interchange, in resort on Shoreline, trunk of car by Military checkpoint on Customs and some other places.
waxen forge
I recommend Interchange because of multiple weapon crates, tech stores/tech spawns and other items that are not behind locked doors like loot on Shoreline. However with Hideouts Interchange is hopping as it's a big spot to find resources to upgrade hideout. I still think it's best money making spot though
bold kernel
MedBags i remember from customs:
- In a concrete ring behind gas station
- In a white car at storages
- the big power pole near gas station
I started on Customs because of quest

Nah man but seriously. If your having trouble aiming I would suggest to learn how to mod a bit to bring the recoil down on whatever gun you're using.

Do I get exp for eating/ drinking stuff off raid? Or should I want until in raid

You get xp for eating stuff?

Yes

This questions probably been asked a lot, but what is the money requirement for stash lvl 2? It says 3.5mill but the game says I have 2.2mil (I only have like 500k)
And at some point it said I have had the 3.5 mill but I never got close to that amount in cash
Uhh weird.. I just moved rubles around in my wallet to make a full stack of 500k and it said I could upgrade
lavish seal
when should i start upgrading stuff in the hideout?
waxen forge
When you have materials and want to upgrade
true rover
Hideout isn't really important until you hit like LVL 2 on traders
by then u start getting good gear and can afford to upgrade
torpid wraith
anyone have any good builds for an akms?

How exactly are you supposed to use extraction points that say bring a scav or bring a pmc with you?

By bring a player scav or pmc with you

Thats pretty crazy lol
atomic inlet
any tips on how to handle the thicc bois there on every map now
split vapor
snipe them in the face
feral gorge
@atomic inlet Leg meta kill since he'll get stunnee and won't shoot back. Reshala try snipe from up the hill or just go and sweep them one by one. And idk about Shturman since he's been the hardest fucker for me to deal with, also never saw Glukhar soo idk
But you could check the wiki too since the wiki offers strategies on how to fight them
waxen forge
You can also not take on fights where you are at a clear disadvantage
If they are armored head and torso you can leg them
feral gorge
Basically
If they have armor and a helmet but no faces shield. Tap their face
If they have a face shield and u don't have something that could pen like a hunter but u have a TT then go for legs.
atomic inlet
@waxen forge i dont start the fights really its mostly the over geared players beating me out of all my rub
ocean crag
whats the point of the memory skill now that skill rollback is no longer a thing? other than lv8 for the library
steady pilot
smoky glen
@ocean crag Nothing at the moment like you said. Skills have been neglected a bit over the last years. Only skills added have been Covered Movement and Search (for corpses) - I think new skills will be added / existing skills beeing overhauled bit by bit now that 0.12 is released and then we will see what memory will affect. I think the next addition will be prone movement, now that they added a (working) speed modifier for it and added different ground sound effects while crawling - also it finally isn't heard by the whole map anymore when you crawl.

for dealing with geared players there are a few cheap guns with high pen ammo, usually anything that shoots 7.62x51 or 7.62x54 is a good start
amber delta
Its worth it evolve hideout?
lapis mauve
yes
lapis mauve
maybe not early game

i've done a few cheap ones

medstation level 2 gives an extra 27 hp per hour regen, level 3 gives another extra 55

edgy blade
Which SKS is better overall?
proven halo
the right one because it has sights.. lol
delicate plover
just to confirm: vertical audio differentiation is not implemented yet, right?
lapis mauve
left one has suppresor and better accuracy
but you can get a vepr km or akms for about the same price
and they are better
steady pilot
@edgy blade no the opsks is the worst. It has terrible stats
It absolutely not worth the 40k listing price
The regular sks is 20k on market and the veprkm which is 17k market are better and best options for cheap 762x39 rifles
edgy blade
I ended up getting rid of both cause I always run the VEPR lol
steady pilot
Good man
edgy blade
I have an AK-105 with a silencer and a sight as well as an Adar 2-15 with a silencer and sight ill probably get rid of too
edgy blade
Gonna save that thank you ❤
steady pilot
Apparently the regular sks I hear has "tighter and easier to control groupings and faster tap rate" but meh
I find hardly no issues using a vepr, which has more flavor imo
edgy blade
I've been loving my vepr and i dont even run it with a sight or silencer, so Im a big fan of keeping it
stone surge
So how do I go about factory and that quest with the laptop from prapor
edgy blade
Are these two guns worth keeping?
stone surge
I litterly died over 5 times now with that laptop
that quest seems like a dead end for a solo player tbh
steady pilot
Look at the durability
Lower durability is linked to having accuracy issues the lower it gets
On top of it already being .065
So, in short, adar bad. Sell it or replace lower receiver with m4 receiver.
Ak105 is just a short ak74m. Tbh I prefer ak74m if I were to use a 545 rifle.
I just avoid 545 personally cause its crap rounds get me killed
edgy blade
Thanks delta, I really appreciate all the insight. You've been extremely helpful to me always it means a lot. And yeah I do prefer running 7.62
Gonna just dish them both off to the mechanic for 180,000 total roubles
steady pilot
Yeh no problem. Just be careful of my biases🤷
I like to look at things from an overall perspective though
So overall, ops sks, adar, and ak74u are trash and should be avoided 
edgy blade
Thats okay I honestly appreciate someone who has bias because I know when I do its cause I stand at a point for a very specific reason so I honestly just trust your judgement lol
steady pilot
406mm molot barrel is trash too
370mm is actually more accurized
Otherwise use 18 and 20 inch
Or shortest barrel if you a pistol ar guy I guess
edgy blade
Im running a 260mm barrel on my M4A1, i like the gun but the recoil is pretty insane
steady pilot
Exactly.
The ergo loss is worth the recoil reduction and accuracy of longer barrels
steady pilot
I mean you can, I would.
Looks > stats
Props to you for using any gun for looks over stats is all I'll say
If you can make it work
Like shit like this fun to me
edgy blade
Lmao that looks like a ton of fun honestly
edgy blade
It brought vertical recoil down from 89-76 and horizontal down from 229->211
down to i should say
steady pilot
Yeh
edgy blade
Overall it still feels like a lot of recoil
steady pilot
Handguard is poor reduction
And you can get mur upper receiver if you got munz
And canted rk2 grip is...gross lol
I prefer ergo over most recoil reduction anyway
amber delta
What security does in hideout if we level up it?
edgy blade
Is there a better handguard for recoil reduction with this?
steady pilot
Do a linked search on either. The barrel or upper receiver
Look at all the handguards
Lvoa C is decent
edgy blade
Also i was look at a weapon modding guide for the M4 and they had the canted grip on there lol
edgy blade
Gotcha lol, well it wont fit onto the LVOA-C anyways hahaha
steady pilot

Noob question, i have a bunch of 1 key should i keep all or is one all i need?
lapis mauve
@stone surge if you mean delivery from the past, i waited until 12 min to grab the docs on customs. then i went night factory and waited until 12 min again, had to kill 10 scavs before i could place it but it worked within a few tries. i've pretty much only played solo as well
just need 1 unless it has uses
steady pilot
@short otter sell extras

bear better with aks

another noob question, I cannot seem to find where to buy the SKS magazine, i tried looking through all vendors. Is it sold at low levels? Currently at lvl 4
short otter
Fair enough, i was reading a little and lots seem to say the SKS is great for starting off, could you recommend an alternative weapon in the mean time?
short otter

Naw, even I run into dudes im under-kitted to fight. Part of Tarkov is knowing when to fight, and even to run.
Also do not always go for headshots. Aim small, miss small.
Only go for heads if you've got the drop on them.

is there anywhere weak on armour like maybe the legs?

Legs and arms are always unarmored, however it takes lots of shots to kill that way.
