[bold kernel]

i did

[primal venture]

@tardy aspen ?

[waxen forge]

Did u check boxes?

[bold kernel]

yep

[waxen forge]

@ a Mod. Bot is slow/broken

[earnest pollen]

@bold kernel if you are having issues, i recommend trying to contact staff, top right corner

[tardy aspen]

@primal venture totally. its not a replica obvi but.... if you were to google images of uncircumcised and then look at the helm.... theres a disturbing resemblance lol. Definitely recommend not googling that though, no telling what you will find.

[primal venture]

shit you right

lol

[tardy aspen]

lmao

[primal venture]

kinda does look like that

you've ruined that helmet for me now

[modern steppe]

wtf literally looted a lion off a dead PMC last night but i dropped it bc i didnt think it was valuable

[outer forge]

all part of the plan

[earnest pollen]

[modern steppe]

\

bro these emojis are epic

[outer forge]

@modern steppe wanna join me in a raid? we might as well start somewhere 😛

[modern steppe]

sure lol in like 20 mins

add me

what level are you

[terse sedge]

Which ammo should I be using for the ADAR?

[waxen forge]

995 if you can afford it

[lapis mauve]

Highest pen you can afford

Will post ammo chart in a sec

[terse sedge]

I have the chart, I just dont get it

[earnest pollen]

@terse sedge 855 is fine

[outer forge]

@modern steppe like level 3. i started yesterday lol

[lapis mauve]

Look at the column with pen, the highest is what you want

[modern steppe]

yoo same level 3

[lapis mauve]

M995, m856A1, m855a1 in that order

I would go with any worse ammo

Wouldn’t

[outer forge]

alright. im in the LFG customs #5 @modern steppe

[earnest pollen]

@lapis mauve cool, will you quickly unlock PK LL3 for him then?

[lapis mauve]

Flea market is a thing

Or he can pick a gun that shoots cheaper ammo

Or use useless ammo and not kill anything

165 a bullet isn’t bad

[waxen forge]

Agree with RC. I am the first to caution new people about overusing flea but as soon as good ammo starts showing up on flea post-wipe I'm sure as hell using good ammo.

[cerulean cape]

just flea everything & tear down weps for vendors tbh, ezpz

[waxen forge]

Nope

Never to to agree with that

[lapis mauve]

Until you level traders only sell expensive thing on flea

[cerulean cape]

with just tearin weps down and selling weps im far ahead of vendors in terms of sales for next level before ive hit player level tbh. but most my flea shit is expensive and not rap anyways

crap*

if its like sub 50k just goes to thera

really probs sub 100

[waxen forge]

Why sell basic stuff 3 at a time on the flea with tax when you could sell to traders in bulk for immediate payment and increase "spent" with them.

[ashen imp]

anyone want to help me i have nothing

[cerulean cape]

thats what im sayin, sub 50 or 100k goes to thera, but tbf dont find that much shit under that price, then weps are basically the only other things, and they et disassembled and sold to skier/mech/prap

[modern steppe]

fellas

is the lvoac blk handguard valuable i just found it

[waxen forge]

Sell to skier

It's no big deal

[modern steppe]

not much cash?

im in scav right now in reserves what are some tips?

[cerulean cape]

shoot before you get shot

[bright tundra]

Anyone wanna run with me and teach me abit of the maps etc?

[ashen imp]

how do i get filters to show salewas only being sold for rubls

[terse sedge]

Scroll the mousewheel down till you see one for roubles

[waxen forge]

In a raid at the moment but there is a filter on the top right side.

Or just sort by price low to high and find cheapest rubles

[ashen imp]

thanks boys

now i got popped in the head while trying to loot a duffle bag with my last ditch effort to get money

[normal abyss]

Cog in top left > currency dropdown box, change to roubles

Also tick to remove barter offers

[drowsy rampart]

i cant seem to put a scope on a mosin to save my life what am i doing wrong

im trying to put the kochetov mount but it wont let me

[waxen forge]

Is it the base mosin or Infantry?

No scope on infantry

[modern steppe]

are those wireless military radio things valuable

just grabbed one from reserve

[drowsy rampart]

ohh

ok so am i stuck with iron signs with the infantry mosin?

[waxen forge]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Military_COFDM_wireless_Signal_Transmitter

Once again Wiki @modern steppe

[modern steppe]

ope sory

[waxen forge]

Need 2 for task and then can be used for Barter

It's cool. I'm just trying to teach a man to fish kinda t hing

*thing

[modern steppe]

o wow 80k for prapor

sell or wait for task

[waxen forge]

It's a later task so depends on if need the $

[modern steppe]

eh its taking up space so ill sell

do things generally make more money on flea market?

[floral steeple]

yes

[waxen forge]

Some not all

But there is a tax on flea and it does not count to leveling traders.

For something like that I'd say flea.

[modern steppe]

thanks

i also got a GP coin

seems epc

[waxen forge]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/GP_coin

Trade item

[normal abyss]

@modern steppe don't ever sell tech shit to prapor

[waxen forge]

^

[normal abyss]

Those things are 112k ish to therapist

[waxen forge]

Shit. I never noticed he said that.

Yea @modern steppe For traders it's Therapist>Skier>mechanic. Plus break weapons into all parts and sell parts to Skier then rest (that Skier won't buy) to Mechanic.

[normal abyss]

@modern steppe those things also sell for thera cost on flea so always just sell them

You can buy them back for about the same, worst case you lose a couple thousand roubles

[ashen imp]

so i sell tech shit to who(stuff like caps)

[waxen forge]

Therapist

Therapist>Skier>Mechanic. IF she won't buy an item try skier (always try her first)_ then if skier won't buy it sell to mechanic. Then if those 3 won't buy try the others with FENCE as last option

[normal abyss]

Uhh

[waxen forge]

Can also Right click on items and Filter by Item to check if it's a high ticket item on flea. IF flea beats it including what you pay in tax then sell to flea

[normal abyss]

You're missing the most important step my dude

There we go

Discord having weird delays on my end

[waxen forge]

I was doing it Yoda style

[mossy blaze]

Is there any scavs on any map that have a decent chance of spawning with the AVS chest rig?

[waxen forge]

Since 12..nope

[normal abyss]

Buy it from flea

[waxen forge]

Labs and reserve probably only options

[mossy blaze]

need to find one in raid for quest

[normal abyss]

Which one?

For rag?

[mossy blaze]

friend from the west part 1

[normal abyss]

Read it again my dude

[waxen forge]

You can buy them. Not F.I.R required

[mossy blaze]

oh

im an idiot cheers

[normal abyss]

No worries

We've all been there

[tiny void]

So I'm out of raid with 2 fractured arms, what do I need to repair them?

[waxen forge]

Simple splint from Therapist

[tiny void]

oh is that it, ok

[normal abyss]

Or alu splint

Or grizzly

[ashen imp]

also last thing is there a good way to heal up in the character screen after raid bc i have j been spamming ai2s but there has to be a better day

way

[normal abyss]

Grizzlies

From flea

Make sure they're 1800/1800

Around 35k per

[ashen imp]

bruh igt i gotta get money i got 6k to my name

[waxen forge]

Scav interchange...loot sell

[ashen imp]

thanks guys tarcov has a great community

[waxen forge]

No problem. It's a rough game. Be patient

[normal abyss]

Absolutely

The learning curve is dummy thicc

[waxen forge]

Tarkov not to have fun. Tarkov to test men vs. boys

Basically what Nikita says

@ashen imp For example on $. I just ran interchange and just ran the PC's in Ollie. Made 140K just from looting PC's. Didn't even touch tech stores

[ashen imp]

pcs in ollie?

ok ill look it up

ive came from rust so im used to losing and gear fear

[waxen forge]

Tarkov is an experience.

[ashen imp]

yeah

[waxen forge]

Is your scav available?

[ashen imp]

yeah im iun interchange rn

[waxen forge]

Cool. I was going to say if you've never been there try scav first

[normal abyss]

You can make a million an hour running low risk reserve runs ;)

[ashen imp]

damn yeah i just died ima do ollie first and see what happens

[normal abyss]

Speaking of interchange

Reee can people stop calling it tex-hoe

[waxen forge]

How about T-Ho

[normal abyss]

How about techno like it's meant to be imitating

Grr

It's in Cyrillic but since we have shared letters people think it's English

[tranquil stirrup]

As a new player, what would people suggest I invest in first? I'm torn between just slowly saving up for the bigger/better cases or just getting 1 of everything and gradually working towards each case (stash space has been stressful ).

[lapis mauve]

junk box first for hideout stuff and quest items

[normal abyss]

Also sell more of your stuff

Sell most on flea

[tranquil stirrup]

Ah, okay. Awesome. Anything else in priority after that? (I've saved up 2m so far at level 15).

[lapis mauve]

maybe med case or weapon/item case

keytool or docs case

[normal abyss]

Keytool or docs case are pretty gucci

[ruby sedge]

Docs case is pretty budget now adays and it does the job

[waxen forge]

Everyone is saving up for the sicc case

[ruby sedge]

Sicc case was my first purchase this wipe, totally worth it

[kindred niche]

when is the next wipe? Im very new and not sure if to wait to play

[waxen forge]

First big purchase every wipe is Junk box. Then b/c of hideouts I bought 2

[ruby sedge]

8 months to a year

[waxen forge]

Wipes with big content patches. It was 9 months before this wipe

[ruby sedge]

Wipe is very fresh rn @kindred niche

[waxen forge]

I'd say 6 months or so

Wipe is good...we like wipes

[kindred niche]

brilliant time to get learning, also what is this about cases?

[ruby sedge]

Just items to hold your keys

[kindred niche]

oh sweet

[lapis mauve]

not just keys, there is a box for almost everything

[kindred niche]

and im guessing i cant upgrade my container?

[waxen forge]

Can upgrade safe container through tasks

[thick mist]

You can also buy them through high level traders

But yeah, realistically you're going to be stuck with beginner one for a very long time

[waxen forge]

I played first 9 months on standard account. Totally viable option.

[mossy dirge]

YO i need help im new

[fair ermine]

Welcome to the club

[waxen forge]

What questions you have?

[brisk mortar]

@split vapor

Do Sherpa things

Help these newfriends.

[mossy dirge]

i need help with basically everything

[waxen forge]

Any specific questions?

[heady hamlet]

Other than a quest and as a trade good, any reason I should hang on to dog tags I find?

[normal abyss]

Nope

[waxen forge]

Other than task and trade ...no

[heady hamlet]

kind of want to hang on to my first PMC kill as a memento... but thats a lot of money

[waxen forge]

Depends on what level your first kill was.

If he was 30 and up then it's cash. 10 and below not much

[heady hamlet]

Level 29

13k

[distant garnet]

keep it, soon enough 13k will be nothing for you

[thick mist]

When you insure a weapon but don't select all of the mods on it, and the weapon itself doesn't get looted, do you only get the receiver back?

[waxen forge]

Did you insure it in stash then mod it or something?

I just insure at the insure screen and when u click on the weapon it insures all of it

[steady pilot]

I keep telling shoot to get off his ass @brisk mortar

[thick mist]

Nah in the insure window under my weapon insurance I've been de-selecting all of the mods because I figured nobody would take random mods off the weapon and throw them on the ground so I shouldn't waste money on it

[modern steppe]

im really confused about all aspects of healing lol

[waxen forge]

The mods may be what they take. Suppresors and optics and shit

[thick mist]

Well yeah by mods I mean like stock, gas blocks, grips, etc

[waxen forge]

Just join the Insure All crowd. It's easier

[thick mist]

Because I just got back only my MPX receiver so I'm curious

[waxen forge]

Honestly in all my hours I've never considered using insurance that way

[thick mist]

Yeah haha

I thought I was doing a cool little life hack to save a few roubles here and there

[waxen forge]

You were certainly thinking out of the box

https://tenor.com/view/smart-thinking-thoughts-think-ponder-gif-7713620

[thick mist]

And got punished for it :(

Never thinking outside the box ever again

[tranquil stirrup]

[thick mist]

1984? Never heard of it

[kindred niche]

would it be wrong to ask in looking for a group as im new? or should i just tell them in new?

[steady pilot]

You can absolutely utilize looking for group. And advising that you are new is a good idea so they know what to expect and how to progress with you.

[kindred niche]

nice cheers

[steady pilot]

However.

Dont forget about Sherpas

#sherpa-info

[kindred niche]

yeah ive applied im just not sure when ill be online next

[waxen forge]

Damn. GPU up to 220K

[normal abyss]

@kindred niche you can also just sit in beginners assistance voice channel and ask one of us to hop in

I would but I need sleep

Oh there's some guys clogging it up

Give us a sec

@ashen imp @mossy dirge can you guys not sit in that channel together as there's currently a player limit

[high spindle]

[thick mist]

Oh shoot, sorry @modern steppe

It's uh.. Extremely vague to say you're confused about ALL aspects of healing. Are you unsure of how to use healing items?

[modern steppe]

ya thanks

[steady pilot]

[thick mist]

Mods really need to add a newbie help voice chat 🙄

Do you want to hop in uhhhh

[modern steppe]

i think there is a voice chayt

just lockd rn

[thick mist]

Join The Romp Bar

[modern steppe]

ok hol up

eating me some oragne chicken

[thick mist]

And nah that voice channel is only to be used to look for a Sherpa according to the admins

Ooo yum

[ebon flume]

scav boss on woods, what weapon does he have?!

[thick mist]

But yeah I've helped people in there but was told to leave because it's for Sherpas only

[ebon flume]

one tapping me from 300 feet away

[thick mist]

An SVD

Yeah he's pretty insane sometimes

[ebon flume]

ok

[thick mist]

@ashen imp @mossy dirge

[solemn rampart]

yea, it supposed to be looking for sherpas and yet ive rarely seen sherpas ini this chat or voice chat. most the time its normal guys helping the noobs that i see

[thick mist]

I mean it would take 10 seconds to add another voice channel and I know it's been requested before so idk why it hasn't been added yet

[split vapor]

doesn’t help that only two people can be in the vc

[thick mist]

Hm?

The mods changed it to a limit of two because they want it to only be used to find a Sherpa

@ashen imp and @mossy dirge are using it for doing a raid though it seems

Or just ignoring notifications

[mossy dirge]

srry

[ashen imp]

im sorry sir for our severe lack of judgement

[mossy dirge]

im sorry sir for our severe lack of judgement

[high spindle]

[thick mist]

Yep you for sure just get receiver back

Big brain moment ruined

Welp going to be getting a lot of weapons like that back

[steady pilot]

Caaaaausee you didnt insure the parts you changed on it

Tbh idk how you could mess up the hunter

[thick mist]

Nah that's not what happened

In the pre-raid insurance menu you can insure your weapon with all the attachments

I figured... What're the chances that someone is going to kill you and then take random attachments off your gun and toss them? No. They're going to take the entire gun or just the expensive attachments.

[steady pilot]

I never use that menu

[thick mist]

Since everything is attached to the gun I insured, I figured I would still get them back if nobody loots the gun

[steady pilot]

I use the one right before raid and hit insure all and subtract my keybar in my gamma cause fuck paying 60knfor something I won't lose lol

[thick mist]

Cutting the insurance price by a LOT

But apparently Prapor just sees my gear laying on the ground, disassembles my entire gun, and then only brings back the receiver haha

[steady pilot]

Smh

[thick mist]

Big brain insurance scam was ruined :(

[delicate knoll]

can i do gunsmith part 1 through flea market?

[lapis mauve]

you can and should use flea market for all gunsmith quests

[grim igloo]

^

[delicate knoll]

alrighty

is there a good guide for it? cus i cant find an informative one

[thick mist]

The wiki has good info

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Quests

For all quests

Click on trader portrait to see their lists

Gunsmith pages have lists of all attachments as well as possible alternatives

When a barter says ">35" level dogtags does that really mean 35+? Or is it 36+?

[delicate knoll]

less than 35

oh wait

greater than 35

im stupid

it would be 36+

35 plus would be > with _ underneath it

[thick mist]

Damn okay

I have three level 35 dogtags rip

[delicate knoll]

very unfortunate

lol

i dont think i have killed a player over the level of like 15

[simple topaz]

hi there, so i got my sherpa request confirmed and when i went in to the game to get my sherpa kit with my sherpa i got this message and was never able to get my equipment. anyone know about this bug or what i should do?

[delicate knoll]

u can get items from sherpas?? whatt

[simple topaz]

only a basic sherpa kit to go on a run with

[echo geode]

Does anyone know when the game will get on sale again? Because i'm pretty interested on buying it

[delicate knoll]

whats in it @simple topaz

[modern steppe]

yo weird question but can the flea market be lucrative?

[broken moon]

it can be

[brisk mortar]

@echo geode

[modern steppe]

what are gp coins used for?

[split vapor]

i know for a weapon trade or two

which is a gain of value compared to selling the coin

[modern steppe]

what weapons? none of my traders are leveled?

[thick mist]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Physical_bitcoin

[sour plume]

So since I've started playing I tend to aim at the head a lot out of habit from other shooters, however when I'm watching people using good ammo I often see them just go for body shots, is there really no point in going for head if you have good ammo?

[dull cave]

no

head will kill faster

many are just lazy

I personally fall into the same trap

It works out 99% of the time, but that 1% gets me fucked.

[sour plume]

hm

[lapis mauve]

1 shot head or 2 shots chest. I think the people you watch use full auto though, so it’s easier to just aim center mass

I try for head shots when I can

[whole schooner]

depends on range, but yeah.. single isnt bad

depends if you want to take it easy vs rock and roll

[green shuttle]

Why is my workbench locked in my hideout?

[rocky oyster]

are you trying to build things?

[green shuttle]

no but it says its locked

[rocky oyster]

the workbench itself? or the ability to craft things

[green shuttle]

the workbench itself

[rocky oyster]

weird

[zenith compass]

@green shuttle Have you built a generator and got fuel to run it?
That might unlock the workbench

[green shuttle]

yes, i have both generator is filled with fuel

[zenith compass]

I see

[hidden socket]

How do you get through early levels at this point of the wipe?

[green shuttle]

quests

[dusky hazel]

questing usually helps a lot, but it is for real a solid grind if you dont have a lot of experience with EFT. The main learning curve is figuring out the maps and how the system works

Its hard, and meant to be that way but dont let that discourage you

once you get the game down its an incredibly rewarding game

[green shuttle]

^^ what he said, i just started playing a couple months ago the hardest part for me was weapons and for some reason the sound in this game was hard for me to get used to

[hidden socket]

I think sound is the thing for me.

I think part of it is my internet possibly too.

[green shuttle]

the dynamics are really odd but they will be doing an update soon with better sound with Steam Audio I think it was called

[hidden socket]

Like I have bad aim I know, but I feel like my internet connection does not help me.

[dusky hazel]

the sound is borked. Soon there will be a sound update and that will all hopefully go away

[hard creek]

are there servers on here for someone to help learn the basics with?

[dusky hazel]

sorry, but your best bet would be to play offline mode for that

[green shuttle]

!sherpa @hard creek

[dusky hazel]

and if you want to learn online you can find a new group or request a Sherpa to assist

[hard creek]

Sounds good!

[rocky oyster]

offline was my best friend for the first week or so

[modern steppe]

honestly i hate doing quests

i jus wanna make money an have fun

[dusky hazel]

offline mode is the best way of figuring out all the maps and the nuances

[hard creek]

Ive always liked the idea of this game and have always wanted to play it

[dusky hazel]

it is an incredible game, and Im not just saying that cause Im a mod

[modern steppe]

woah ur a mod

[dusky hazel]

Im a mod because I love EFT

[hard creek]

I like a challenge, I consider myself a decent FPS player but this game will put me in my place lol

[modern steppe]

yo @dusky hazel do you know how i go about profiting off the flea market

[rocky oyster]

if you undercut everyone your stuff will sell more

[dusky hazel]

and dont think that even those of us that have been playing for a long time also dont get our asses handed to us. It happens constantly. Tarkov givith and Tarkov takith away

[hidden socket]

I think a lot of it is just I know where lot is and I know the maps ok, but I don’t know how to play it if that makes sense.

*loot

[hard creek]

Skull would you wanna play when its done dowloading for me sometime?

[dusky hazel]

@modern steppe you have to learn what is currently selling. Take a look at what items are needed for the hideout and then go farm them on Interchange. Make it out alive and then profit

[modern steppe]

thanks brotrher

[dusky hazel]

@hidden socket makes perfect sense. EFT is not like any other FPS on the market

[hard creek]

Can always tell me to kick rocks whenever you want too @hidden socket

[modern steppe]

also idk how to farm on interchange

[dusky hazel]

take a look at a few videos posted on YouTube, there are a bunch a good streamers that have great info vids on how to make money

[hard creek]

Ive watched Klean a few time playing thats how I gained interest in playing

[sour plume]

EFT is kinda similar to Rust if Rust had modular weapons, except there's no map and your "base" can't be raided

[hidden socket]

Not tonight as I am going to bed. Not sure when I’ll be back on honestly. I have school right now and it’s hard glitter me to play.

[dusky hazel]

just keep in mind guys, this game has a MASSIVE learning curve, it WILL make you angry, it WILL scare you and it will beat you up for a while. Dont give up, it will all click sooner or later

[hard creek]

I cant tonight cause its downloading any way

[hidden socket]

I’ll message you when I can and let you know.

Sent you a friend request

[dusky hazel]

my best advice is to get good at one map, play it over and over and over until you know everything about it. That way when you start to play other maps you can always go back to the one you know the most and feel comfortable, make money and have a better time

[modern steppe]

smart

which map woudl you reccomend

[hidden socket]

I feel like customs is a good start. That is the map I know the most.

[modern steppe]

bro i hate customs tho wiith a passion

[dusky hazel]

customs or Interchange. Customs mostly because thats where all the beginning quests are at and IC because you can make some good money

but thats just my opinion

[modern steppe]

are quests realy important?

bc i hate them

[jade cedar]

anyone wanna run a map with me

[sour plume]

customs would be the best to start imo because you need to learn it for the early tasks

[jade cedar]

customs or factory

[dusky hazel]

the way that the system works now it is really hard to level without questing. Also the traders require rep to advance them and that is the only way

[lapis mauve]

If you can make lots more f money you don’t need to do quests

But quests will save you a ton of money I. The long run

[modern steppe]

ok cuz i really hate doing quests

[dusky hazel]

also the only way you will be able to upgrade your hideout

[modern steppe]

damn bro

[dusky hazel]

I get it, some of the quests really suck and are super grindy

I struggle with them sometimes myself

but I am more of a covert player and not an agro one. I tend to avoid encounters with players

[polar beacon]

Where do i go to find a raid group

[dusky hazel]

@polar beacon #pvp-lfg

but you should go to #521628660298678283 first so you can see all the rooms

[primal venture]

yo my dumb ass needs a sherpa

@split vapor how me do dis again?

[steady pilot]

#sherpa-info

[primal venture]

k thank

[obsidian eagle]

i have been playing for less than a week, does anyone do sherpa style runs at all for learning tips and tricks?

[ripe basin]

I'm doing the sherpa also for the first time. I'm confused on the "Raid Days" section. Am I supposed to put when I want to do a run for the time?

Nvm I think I figured it out.

[obsidian eagle]

good to hear, because i have no idea what you were talking about lol

[ripe basin]

I just found out you can apply to have a sherpa. This is my third wipe and I still suck at this game -_-

[obsidian eagle]

i definately fall into that category

how often do the wipes happen? is it posted anywhere?

thank you

whats the best way to determine a player vs ai?

god i sound dumb

more a movement thing?

so offline would be good for ai knowledge, then online players will look out of place?

sorry again, im nowhere new to gaming, just tarkov

just trying to find my best path i guess

ok

kill anything that moves? lol

ah got it

customs is really all ive played so far, trying to learn one map at a time

very linear which makes it easier

then i pick out landmarks

i do run a map on my second screen but have noticed names have changed for extracts

cant seem to find most updated map

ok, i really appreciate it

[acoustic depot]

am currently extremely broke, yet I have little stash space left
should I suck it up and sell my guns

[obsidian eagle]

youll get more... lol

[acoustic depot]

I guess

But I'm not confident enough to run with a lot of them

[obsidian eagle]

i hate such a long cooldown

[acoustic depot]

my mp5 and FAL especially

[obsidian eagle]

got to use it to get confident i guess

[acoustic depot]

But then again I rarely used armor, so maybe doing that will turn things around

[obsidian eagle]

perhaps

i havent learned enough about the armors yet either

thanks again for the help Arcade, going to go get some runs in

[acoustic depot]

Yeahhhh I kinda just got up to level 5 with naked PM runs

[sour plume]

if you don't mind losing some shitty early handguns you can dive right into onlines but offlines is a good way to learn maps safely and learn scav spawns

[acoustic depot]

Picking up some garbo armor and an AK from a scav really helped me close out Prapor's 1st quest

[bronze prism]

bro PM runs are god tier once you get even a little bit of experience

[acoustic depot]

I don't have that experience sadly

[sour plume]

handgun raids are so good for early game, scavs rarely ever wear helmets lol

[bronze prism]

i mean i have maybe like

14 hours

give or take

im pretty new

[sour plume]

like even a player with any level of helmet that doesn't have a facemask

[acoustic depot]

You may be greener than I am, holy shit

[sour plume]

you can 1tap them in the face with a pm

[bronze prism]

but a few scav runs to learn the map a bit (customs specifically)

and a PM run is 100% profit

[acoustic depot]

Yeah I think

I need to learn maps

[bronze prism]

well like 15% profit

i know customs and factory like the back of my hand

[acoustic depot]

Only one I know somewhat well is Interchange

[sour plume]

i know customs fairly well now but not factory

[bronze prism]

im alright at interchange

[sour plume]

factory is just mega aids

[bronze prism]

never played woods

[acoustic depot]

and I roughly know one area of customs

Played a few rounds of Woods before the wipe

[bronze prism]

i also sort of kind of know shoreline a little

[acoustic depot]

friend gave me a rifle to play with cause everything was dirt cheap

was good

[bronze prism]

stole a space trooper off a guy

so fire

[warped locust]

why wont it let me set a price to sell bitcoin on the flea?

nvm my keyboard is just messed up 😄

[torpid wraith]

any big differences between all the 545 aks

[ruby sedge]

not really big with the ak74 varients

but with 100 series theres a few differences

mostly just barrel length though

if you want meta the ak74m used to be the best, havent checked this wipe

[dense lotus]

Pretty sure it’s still the best, at 47 recoil

[torpid wraith]

hol up what....

47!? this n that i have modded out i think and its only 76

[dense lotus]

Vertical recoil*

[torpid wraith]

75

[dense lotus]

Either the N or M can be 47 recoil, I’m pretty sure it’s the M model

[torpid wraith]

what is a good way of scnreen shotting? prnt scan?

i play in fullscreen is why i ask

[dense lotus]

I don’t build them, let me see if I can get you a screenshot

[ruby sedge]

gyazo is good

im using this right now https://gyazo.com/1ea125f17520feff629ef46fcf31ab7c

[dense lotus]

And yes printscreen is fine

[torpid wraith]

okay. so im just terrible at modding then

very likely

[ruby sedge]

no no

silencers give terrible recoil compared to a comp

its the trade off

[dense lotus]

This is an old screenshot, I’m pretty sure that this build is now 47 recoil

https://gyazo.com/14b87c87f91b7f3f4c949b8eecda2331

[ruby sedge]

https://gyazo.com/70bdaa5f285cb596d2bafb1d0b521309

[torpid wraith]

m4s silencers only trade off like...5 or 6 recoil though right? thought that is what i saw on a stream

[ruby sedge]

5 or 6 is like having a second foregrip

[dense lotus]

Tbh 99% of the time, compensators over suppressors

Silencers are decent if your out there single firing and stuff, but the recoil trade off isn’t worth it

[torpid wraith]

i do like single tapping heads

[dense lotus]

Not to mention the cost

[torpid wraith]

but maybe i should be runnign something different with an ak

in that scenario

[ruby sedge]

nah theres more uses for a silencer

[dense lotus]

The sdn suppresser and it’s aac mount is like 80-90k

[ruby sedge]

very useful when playing in a squad

have your forward player/flanker with silencer

[dense lotus]

Yeah, but then again.. the risk of losing stuff is considerably less when squading

[ruby sedge]

true, but when u can pick up a ak silencer for 35k

not too bad

[dense lotus]

So I guess spending big on everything is fine

Yeah I guess

Usually I don’t rock many aks

[ruby sedge]

m4 silencers are cheap too

[torpid wraith]

so the troy handgaurd is the best for the ak?

[dense lotus]

Depends on ak

[torpid wraith]

74N

[dense lotus]

Cmrd is best as far as I know (M)

I dunno if it fits on the (N) model, but If it does.. it’s the best

[torpid wraith]

it does not. it will wokr on my 102 though

[dense lotus]

The more you shoot the higher your recoil stat will go anyway, so over time you’ll get a nice buff

[torpid wraith]

idk if there are other options that im not able to see from just linked searching under gas blocks for the N but the best 2 that i see are the vs-24 and the troy

[dense lotus]

You can also lvl assault rifle skill to get another recoil buff

[frank beacon]

do scavs have less visibility at night

[dense lotus]

And that’s 10000% worth doing

I would say so, it feels like they do.. unless you make over the top loud noises @frank beacon

[torpid wraith]

ahh shit.

okay so i got it down to 54 now. what are the mods usually associated with recoil managment?

dope.

appreciate the help

[ruby sedge]

Feelsgoodman chucked enough nades for lvl 3 strength

Vents time bb

[frail pine]

I'm killing PMC but no tags and raid report shows as bear / usmec ???

or does that mean they are scavs?

[lapis mauve]

Means you didn’t grab their tags, if they didn’t have any someone grabbed them first. Scav will say scav with - as level

[frail pine]

ahhh kk

[ruby sedge]

some times the game shows your stats from last raid

happened to me a few times this wipe

[lapis mauve]

Yes, happens to me a lot

[dense lotus]

Did they lower strength from 4, to 3 for vents?

[lapis mauve]

Yes

[dense lotus]

Ah that’s nice

[bronze prism]

idk what that mean bro

[lapis mauve]

Hideout stuff

[frail pine]

ah ok i know what happened my friend picked up the dog tags haha

[ruby sedge]

thank god they lowered it to 3, would have taken me another day or so to get :\

[torpid wraith]

i am having mega issues with space. my scav box is filled. i feel like im holding onto things i shouldnt be

[ruby sedge]

only advice i have is check the flea market price on most items

most things will only get cheaper as we go along so not terrible to sell

and have to rebuy much later

[fierce tangle]

how do i know when i should stop repairing armor and just sell it. for example, I have a kirasa at 39/47, should i repair or sell?

[acoustic depot]

repair i think

[normal bear]

@fierce tangle you can try battlebuddy

[fierce tangle]

what is that?

[dense lotus]

It’s a mobile app

@fierce tangle I don’t suggest using any armor, once it’s durability drops below 45(max)

It won’t exactly do much for you

Even gen4s.. having 45/45 isn’t great or ideal

[torpid wraith]

why do you say 45

[fierce tangle]

alright makes sense

also, is it a waste of money to purchase quest items that arent required to be found in raid?

[ruby sedge]

some of them have other uses too

so might have value elsewhere

[swift wadi]

what are some realistic prices for gamma and epsilon cases? i kinda want to buy something bigger

[split vapor]

eps are like 3m

gammas typically 5-6

[swift wadi]

thanks

[dense lotus]

@torpid wraith 45hp is typically enough to withstand one of two hits, anything less and your armor won’t take the full hit

If u have 45 hp gen4, you can die to one chest shot m80

[undone hazel]

what maps to learn as a beginner?

right now i only play customs

shoreline maybe?

i have tons of close range weapons but Ive heard that factory is very hard st lower levels?

im level 7

[dense lotus]

Shoreline is pretty chilled out, and you can make very very good money there

Factory is very tough for low geared people

[ruby sedge]

Shoreline is good, and interchange is good for a new player

Shoreline will teach you longer range, and interchange cqb

[upper sky]

@undone hazel level4 only been doing customs as well. was going to do Shoreline enxt

[undone hazel]

yup, today ima start doing shoreline offline

[upper sky]

i just scav it... never thought to try offline to practice tbh

[undone hazel]

yeah scaving is good for starting, In offline i want to learn where to go so where I do scav runs I dont run around like a headless chicken 😄

[upper sky]

ah yea i guess i like running around clueless a bit as a scav. i keep a map open on second display, find i learn well that way, little bit of pressure but not PMC pressure

[undone hazel]

I did literally the same thing on customs

like first 10 games I had to have the map open

[upper sky]

oh i always still have it open hah

[fierce tangle]

what is a good sight for the adar? i just put on the low profile gas block and didnt realize that it took away the front sight

[undone hazel]

customs is not that complicated, when It comes to interchange then its a different story 😄

[final ivy]

Interchange is complicatesd to start with especially that damn car park lol

Got lost down there a few times even with a map up

[dense lotus]

Interchange can be a difficult one, to consistent extract alive on, speciality in the early levels

[normal bear]

I mean if you walk into oli/techstores and you dont know what they are you basically commit suicide

[dense lotus]

Tbh I don’t like interchange, I play it for the quests then I leave it alone.. in most cases it’s just full of people tryna do kiba or farm items

Earlier in the wipe I needed to run it a few times for a usb, and I saw so many pistol bois it was crazy

People zooming around avoided each other xD

[normal bear]

Nah

Kiba farming rn is shit

Tech stores are the moni

[grim wagon]

i went past kiba twice yesterday looking through the windows like a kid wanting candy at the multiple guns sat in there

few raids later killed someone opening the door and looted it after, nothin

mfw

[waxen forge]

I used to look at the Toys R Us catalogue when I was a kid. Wonder if Kiba mails one out around Christmas.

We could put it on our couch in Hideouts

[plucky goblet]

i got the keys but was only inside twice

[normal bear]

I was there 5 times

Only one good run has guns

But each of these guns was worth less than a tetriz except for sopmod 2

Soo ye tech stores rule

[waxen forge]

Now if they would just do something with Emercon. It's locked. Make it worth the key (other than task). Maybe a 1% chance of a Ledx or at least more Ifak and stuff in there.

[normal bear]

Well ummm medcases spawn ledx's.now

But still not worth

Just go mantis kekw

[waxen forge]

Yesterday's Patch thing? Hadn't heard about the chance of LedX in med bag

[normal bear]

Medcase

Check wiki

[waxen forge]

Cool. 0.05%.....so you are saying I have a chance!

[plucky goblet]

they also spawned in medcases and bags since 11.7 i think

[waxen forge]

I probably just didn't remember since I've never found one in a medcase

[rancid carbon]

hello, someone speak russian?

[plucky goblet]

@weak shadow oi

[weak shadow]

aaaa

@rancid carbon whaddya need

[strange tide]

i survived and extracted... why didnt this get accepted?

[ruby sedge]

It doesn't work with a run through

Maybe that's it?

[rich cloak]

@strange tide it says survive and extract which afaik means that if you get the run through status it doesn't count

I'm not quite sure what triggers the run through status but in my experience killing a scav is enough to not get it

[strange tide]

so i gotta kill some spicy bois?

[rich cloak]

I think so

[ruby sedge]

just a certain amount of xp

[strange tide]

well it says its a V

[ruby sedge]

i think its like 500-1000

[strange tide]

but do i have to get 500 xp?

like either way

in any raid now

[ruby sedge]

pretty sure yup

[strange tide]

alright then ill try that rn

[rich cloak]

It does not state any map so it should be any raid

[strange tide]

wish me luck

[gritty forum]

question is there a good cheap gun with good iron sights i dont like tghe ak's

[undone hazel]

mp5 can be moded for fairly cheap

[rich cloak]

@gritty forum sks is usable

@strange tide bro

[weak shadow]

jesus

my eyes

[rich cloak]

You habe so much barter money lying around

Get a fucking scav junk box

[strange tide]

@rich cloak I have 2.

[rich cloak]

Oh my God

[strange tide]

both of them are full.

[rich cloak]

Do you have to flex this hard?

What's you stash worth?

[strange tide]

all the items in my stash?

[rich cloak]

If you go to overall

What's the value at overall stashworth

[dense lotus]

Hey, how’s tarkov treating everyone

[zenith compass]

Could be better
Ended up panicking on a scav run, was unsure whether the player scav looking at my direction was hostile

Took the shot, then got domed by a PMC

[dense lotus]

Dude.. I am the same, scavs give me them funny looks all the time

I’m always anxious about shooting them or not

[zenith compass]

Whenever I hear a specific phrase or "Uh huh" from an AI, I know there's a player nearby

Player scavs are a gamble, tbh

I try to avoid them

[dense lotus]

Yup, I tend to back peddle whenever I see scavs looting etc

[rich cloak]

I had a scavrun on reserve the other day where someone blacked my leg and I didn't have any painkillers so I was hobbling around and ran right into another fully looted playerscav who thought I was a normal scav and ignored me

That was wild

[zenith compass]

Wow, and you didn't get shot down?

[rich cloak]

Nope

[zenith compass]

gg

[rich cloak]

I think due to the crippled movementspeed and walking through an open area he just thought I was a scav

He probably noticed right about when I pushed my obrez to his neck

But it was a but late at that point

[zenith compass]

Hidden in plain sight, lmao

[rich cloak]

Jup

I even gave him the classic scav middlefinger when I noticed what was going on

[zenith compass]

Gotta love those moments when the AI pull the finger as they're being shot at

[rich cloak]

What I don't love is scavs aimbotting my ass as soon as I peek a corner

Killed someone on interchange the other day with a Mosin. Turns out he brought killa armor in but only a adar with no mods and m855 KEKW

Like why do you bring in killa armor while being to cheap to get some actual ammo

[noble flower]

Can u only use one scope with mosin?

[rich cloak]

Nope

There is the original Mosin scope

And there is a railmount that can be fit instead of the rearsight

With that you can slap all kinds of scope on it

I don't have a list handy which ones go on there but it's a bunch

[steady pilot]

There is a new mount that fits on kochetov

Linked search the kocketov

Ignore the trirail, its trash

[noble flower]

Ah just found a tri rail

[rich cloak]

@steady pilot have you ever used the railmount on it?

[noble flower]

oh

damnit

u mean the arbalet patriot @steady pilot ?

[rich cloak]

How many gunsmith quests are there?

[steady pilot]

Yeah

[noble flower]

okey thx

[strange tide]

@rich cloak probably 6 milion?

@rich cloak 16 gun smiths

[rich cloak]

It's way more than that

The value

My stash value is at 13 million and I have only one quarter empty junk box

OK

Is there any special reward fo doing all gunsmith quests?

[undone hazel]

what is the cheapest case at lower levels?

my stash is full of items that I need but i could save so much space with a case?

can I put anything inside a magazine case for example?

[soft anchor]

no

[rich cloak]

@undone hazel ammo boxes are pretty affordable same with documents cases and wallets

Don't buy a magcase if you are short on money. Just sell your nonexpensive mags and buy them again when you need them

And don't keep guns around if you are not using them

[undone hazel]

rn i have 1.2mil

[rich cloak]

Lucky scav junk box helps a lot too

[undone hazel]

yeah but thats abit overkill

even tho its huge

[rich cloak]

How does you stash look like?

[undone hazel]

veeery messy

ima try and sell guns that i dont use

[rich cloak]

It's usually a good idea

I have a shit ton of weapons in my stash but I'm on the max stash size so it doesn't matter

With the basegame stash I reccomned having about 3 weapons at max in your inventory

[plucky goblet]

bruh

[rich cloak]

And remember to put things into containers like backpacks and rigs

[undone hazel]

oh well right now I have 4 in my stash and 3 in bags

hahah

[rich cloak]

Bruh.mp4

Do you stack your backpacks @undone hazel?

[undone hazel]

yeah I do, but you cant store items in between them...

[rich cloak]

Yeah but they don't take space that way

The only other advice I can give is to sell things to prevent gearfear

You ain't gonna get any use from having gear in your stash you are too afraid to lose

[undone hazel]

right now i dont have thaaaat much of a gear fear

before I had it way more

now im starting to get a hang of the game more

[rich cloak]

In my opinion you play your best if you aren't scared to lose whatever you bring

[cobalt peak]

best time to go into raid with nvg?

[rich cloak]

@devve#6676 at night

But seriously anything after 2100 is probably fine

[cobalt peak]

will try to do 7 scav kills without armor quest

probably won't succeed

😄

[rich cloak]

Why would you bring a nvg tho?

Just take a Mosin to woods and camp the scav house area

Nvgs are pricy

[dense lotus]

24:00-2:00 darkest imo

Anything outside of that window.. and it’s actually not that dark tbh

[rich cloak]

Yeah

[waxen forge]

Also depends on weather. Moon out and clear night is easy. Heavy raid/clouds then its dark. I rarely use nvg and run a decent amount of night.

You get used to the darkness

[dense lotus]

A lot of the maps also have light fixtures etc, but I’d say woods is for the most part, one of the better maps for night raids

[rich cloak]

Can't see shit anyway

[noble flower]

I went on factory at night thinking "it's inside so doesnt matter, maybe less people play during night so I can kill a bunch of scavs and extract without worrying too much about other PMC's"

oh boy was I wrong

[normal bear]

Nvgs cost nothing

Pnv is 30k (idfk what its called)

Pvs is a trade for also 30k

Maybe 40 at bad days

[cobalt peak]

finally lvl 15

yay

how much gunsmith pt4 cost to do?

[frank beacon]

night raid + thermal

[thick mist]

RIP to when thermals won't be able to be placed in containers anymore lmao

Price will probably tank hopefully

[undone hazel]

can i put anything in an ammo case?

or a mag case

[normal bear]

Ammo

Lmao

And mags

I mean

Is that a legit question

[undone hazel]

yeah sounds right i just wondered haha

cause i have problems with space

[tired juniper]

Just ammo in an ammo case

[olive plover]

You can put mags in gun case tho

[bronze oak]

When do i know when i shouldnt repair armor? Also how do i know if repairing amd selling is worth it?

[cerulean cape]

what bullets for 7.62 vepr

[warm terrace]

@cerulean cape BP

[cerulean cape]

oof 350/round, aight lol

[warm terrace]

PS is still effective, but BP is the best

[cerulean cape]

thats fine, ive got more than enough lol

[olive plover]

Its semi

[warm terrace]

@bronze oak I would say anything under 25-30 isn't worth repairing, that'll stop maybe a couple 7.62 rounds

Overall durability that is*

Like max durability. Sorry, it's early lol

[bronze oak]

Some streamers said if overall durability gets bow 60% of what it started ditch it

[olive plover]

Repair it then sell it

[warm terrace]

yeah, most level 4 armors start around 40-50 max dura

later on, gen 4's are like 70-80

[bronze oak]

@olive plover repairing and selling it wont lose ne money?

[olive plover]

You get more than you spent to repair

[bronze oak]

So if its under 60 percent of overall ditch it. Got it

[sour plume]

Is there any penalty for leaving an offline raid?

Anything on your stats/etc

cause my friend went into an offline in the dark and he can't do anything lul

[rose echo]

No you can leave no worries @sour plume

[reef geyser]

nothings lost

[bronze oak]

Are items traders sell buyable by all players? I saw someone complaining about weapons cases being sold out so does that mean if i dont buy it in time and someone else does from therapist i cant buy it till restock?

[thick mist]

Yes, that is correct

You could always buy one from the flea market though

Albeit at a higher price usually

[bronze oak]

Is this true for all items that dont have "a lot" for the stock?

[stray comet]

anyone wanna squad up i need help on labs

[noble flower]

When I link search the mp5k-n no mounts come up in the search, are there none that fits? or is just the linked search function poorly made?

[bronze oak]

I had no idea traders share their inventory for everyone

I think the linked search doesnt show everything for some reason.

[stray comet]

or not okay

[thick mist]

This is not the looking for group channel

[noble flower]

I cant do labs, Im too new and too n00b :D

[stray comet]

wait theres a channel for that

[thick mist]

Please read the #521628660298678283 and #news-setup first @stray comet

[vestal moon]

im looking for new players to run with also

[bold kernel]

#pvp-lfg

[stray comet]

bet im not new just cant do them solo

[vestal moon]

Looking for group failed me

[bold kernel]

I don’t know what to say man

[noble flower]

I tried labs once. that was 200k down the drain real fast haha

[stray comet]

yeah lol

[thick mist]

Yeah, labs is not a good place at all for beginners

[stray comet]

wanna just run a scav army

[thick mist]

Did you read the rules entirely?

[bold kernel]

It’s a great place for quick cash if you have keys

[noble flower]

they really need change how the alpha/gamma /etc boxes work. it's pretty bullshit that you can run in naked in labs, get lucky and find aledex, put it in, and you have it even if you die ^^

Shouldnt save new items, only safe space for items you bring into the raid imo

[bronze oak]

If they are going to do that why not remove it all together

[stray comet]

yeah i like the locked cases

[bold kernel]

Or at least make your character have an animation for taking out the case so it takes longer

[noble flower]

I think it's great to have a safe space for items you dont wanna lose in this unforgiving game. I just dont agree with being able to get new items out of raids safely even if you die

[bronze oak]

This is just artificial difficulty. Are we going to start having animations for reloading mags?

[stray comet]

honestly i wouldnt mind that

[bold kernel]

That already takes time tho

[stray comet]

lets move over to general so we dont get in trouble

[bold kernel]

Putting shit in secure cases is instant

[thick mist]

I personally like being able to put items into secure containers because for new players or those not good at PvP, some quests would be almost impossible

[bold kernel]

Don’t say bad. Say inexperienced

[thick mist]

I mean.... You could have 3 years of experience but still be bad

[bold kernel]

That’s true but if that’s the case then you need to just stop

[thick mist]

What if they still enjoy playing the game though? haha

[bold kernel]

Then git gud kid

[thick mist]

Uhhhh what

Can you get shot through walls in this game? Like if a body part is sticking through or something

[split vapor]

Yes

[thick mist]

Welp

Sigh

[split vapor]

You can shoot through a lot of things

The dorm room walls

The dorm floor

The factory floor from bathroom to office

Wood doors

[thick mist]

Figured I'd be safe behind a 8-inch or whatever thick concrete wall

[mighty chasm]

holy two successful extracts in a row i feel like a pro

[split vapor]

Wood boxes

Eh should be

[thick mist]

Apparently not :)

Maybe my leg was sticking through or something

Extremely frustrating either way

I hate Customs so so SO freaking much

[mighty chasm]

i mean was there a hole in the wall? there seems to be a lot of cracks and stuff in concrete fences

[thick mist]

Nah I made sure to check because I was trying to ambush this guy I heard on the other side of the wall

Otherwise I would have just shot him through the crack haha

I just want to know what the hell they were thinking when they designed Customs

[noble flower]

can you get one shot in the leg? and die? oO

[thick mist]

No clue

[noble flower]

heard a shot and I died. In end screen "random scav name" left leg

oO

maybe it was a sniper on a roof, and it went through my body into the leg or something

[loud wagon]

do i get anything

from offline raids ?

[zenith compass]

@noble flower If the damage spread across the body from a bullet hitting a black limb is > health for either torso or head, yes

[thick mist]

@loud wagon You neither gain nor lose anything from offline raids

It's only for practice

[noble flower]

@zenith compass I was full hp, first encounter in the raid, one shot dead. says l.leg :P ^^

[zenith compass]

You might've got tarkov'd in that instance

Welp

[blazing geode]

in the kill 7 scavs unarmored quest

can I drop my armor, kill the scav and put it back with the kill counting towards the quest?

[ruby sedge]

Yeah that would work

[thick mist]

Sigh

[mighty chasm]

what do i need hdd's for? anything important?

[ruby sedge]

@mighty chasm theres a quest for them later on, and a couple barters

but mostly i just sell mine to therapist

[mighty chasm]

i can trade it right now for a backpack, think thats worth?

[gaunt frost]

can somebody tell my why am i still pure shit at the game even after grinding every day for the past 2 months

[ruby sedge]

its 2 for the mbss right agc?

[mighty chasm]

it says its 1

[ruby sedge]

yeah thats worth it

[mighty chasm]

aight

oh also, should i keep salewa kits and golden star balm?

[ruby sedge]

salewa's are decent meds for in raid

and i use star balm at the start of every raid, its painkiller effect lasts a while

[mighty chasm]

ok ill keep em for a good raid then

my stash is so full. i need to clear it up so i can collect my insured stuff

i remember being told that duct tape is good? know what i have to use it for?

[ruby sedge]

its worth a decent amount on the flea market

and used alot in your hideout upgrades

[mighty chasm]

to bad i dont have money for those upgrades lol its os expensive

[ruby sedge]

Tell me about it, I regret spending so much early on

Everything I bought is like 1/4 the price now haha

[lyric basalt]

Do you die if you jump from 3rd floor balcony in shoreline?

[brisk mortar]

No, but you break both of your legs.

[sour plume]

does xp gained on a scav apply to future scav runs?

[steady pilot]

Your scav has a separate xp and stats bar yeah

[sour plume]

ah cool

[thick mist]

What

[split vapor]

What

[thick mist]

Are the documents not the "valuable cargo" that you have to retrieve for Skier in The Extortionist?

The wiki said you only need the key and the documents

[split vapor]

Key>doc case>exit and give to skier

[thick mist]

Yeah I got the documents but they just disappeared so I figured they went into a special secure quest inventory or something

[ruby sedge]

@thick mist did you die?

[split vapor]

Did you die once you got them

[thick mist]

Yeah I did

Do I actually need to extract

[ruby sedge]

you lose the quest items when you die, you gotta run it out

[split vapor]

Then get it again

[thick mist]

Holy fuck that's bullshit

[split vapor]

No but okay

[ruby sedge]

oof

[thick mist]

Customs is so shitty I don't want to be forced to go on this map

[ruby sedge]

your not really forced, you could play the whole game without doing quests

using the flea market

[thick mist]

Well yeah but you lose out on a lot of exp and money

[broken nacelle]

Negative attitude

[dense lotus]

If you need help going back in and getting it, im down to go with you

[thick mist]

So dumb that I can't even progress Skier's questline because of how garbage this map is

I would very very very very very much appreciate help

[dense lotus]

Sweet, i got you man

[thick mist]

I've lost like 500k because of this shitty map it's so frustrating

[waxen forge]

Not the map

[crisp coral]

Can’t use more nvidia freestyle

He say not support this game?

@neat grove

[split vapor]

If so thats a step in the right direction

[crisp coral]

Why

Support Reshader

Not support freestyle?

[waxen forge]

Not for long

[split vapor]

reshade is trash

just needs to be blocked perm by now

[waxen forge]

Newer version not supported. Play game as intended not with hax

BSG can add a color blind feature to take care of disabilities that's it

[split vapor]

reshade is basically hacking without buying hacks

[crisp coral]

Official say “Yes “for reshade

[waxen forge]

For now

[neat grove]

Reshade is allowed atm

[waxen forge]

Hopefully that moment isn't long

@neat grove thanks

[waxen forge]

How to play is a broad subject. Learn maps, learn scav behavior, know good ammo from bad, learn good loot from bad. Get experience so you don't panic when you hear a shot.

I mean that as advice

[trim pelican]

is there a place where we can get sherpas

[rain harness]

every time its pmc

scavs are ez

we require sherpa

[waxen forge]

I really suggest running a lot of offline mode to get some experience.

[rain harness]

i do and that is easy

but PMCs are like

[waxen forge]

Sherpa will help but this game is Hard. Experience pays off.

!sherpa

so i need to do my second task for Prapor, the watch on Customs. i know it's in dorms room205. i always run solo, and last time i spawned in and went straight to dorms for that room and got blasted instantly when i opened the front door. that's fine, it happens. question is: should i cheese it and wait until late(r) in the raid when PMCs aren't rushing Dorms/Gas Station and fighting there? or did i just get unlucky?

[waxen forge]

Watch isn't in dorms

[thick mist]

The watch isn't in the dorms, it's in an oil rig near the factory

[waxen forge]

It's in the truck.

Key to truck is in dorms
