Interchange is easily my favorite map

its one of the lightest maps imo.
ruby sedge
agreed
grim wagon
like nightime you dont need nvg
waxen forge
Yea really not dark
grim wagon
use audio. its the only way
ruby sedge
big tip would be try not to sprint too often, people can hear from miles off
yeah, audio is key on interchange

Dude i dont sprint on woods so interchange is just
Slow, mini crouch
The noise cancelling headphones are really good but abit pricey
waxen forge
Not really pricey. You guys will redefine pricey as you play more.

best things to buy sell for skier level?
not losing 50% of money

not really possible

sell only granades to prapor, sell guns and dun parts to mechanic, and sell electronics to therapist, most money gathered that way

buy selling is what i did tbh

also when you get level 5 you unlock flee market, thats where you will make most money

Thanks folks. @trim elbow I'll take you up on that offer my dood. I'm okay at gunplay but def need more navigation and looting experience
trim elbow
@merry terrace glad to help
merry terrace
Unfortunately not, but I do have a phone
thick mist
Ah okay that works too. Always useful to have a map open of whatever raid you're doing
merry terrace
True, just have no clue where to find good ones .-.
thick mist
The wiki has plenty of good ones
This is also a good website
What maps are you usually running?
ebon flume
Maps help, but you should try to memorize the rough layouts so you know where players/scav spawn and come from
thick mist
Well yeah, but maps are how you memorize the layouts better :p
ebon flume
True
thick mist
But yeah it's a good idea to eventually not need a map to navigate
merry terrace
I normally go Customs because I'm the most familiar with it
ebon flume
But I recommend walking around the whole map offline or watch a beginners guide
Customs is fairly simple, yes
steady jasper
or maybe learn how to use the map with these links https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Map_of_Tarkov
these map informations are really helpful if you begin on tarkov
rich cloak
Is customs still a shitshow?
ebon flume
Define shit show
steady jasper
Sometimes yes sometimes no depending of the players on the session
bold kernel
Anybody wanna come and hold my hand for a raid or two? Can'
*Can't bring myself to like this game because I suck and don't want to invest too much time in it in order to.
ebon flume
That's a weird attitude
bold kernel
I mean I don't have the time, really
ebon flume
You have to play a game to get better.. Did you not know it is a hard game before buying?
unique kite
Yeah it is very difficult, you have to learn how to play slowly and be patient
Plus you gotta learn the maps and a lot of the meta regarding spawns
bold kernel
I think the worst part for me is the time it takes from getting fucked, to getting back to another raid
unique kite
What you mean?
wet ledge
so dam lame when ppl is camping at roof of interchange to wait for kills
ebon flume
U can get on the roof?
bold kernel
I mean first I spend time gearing my guy up, loading up a raid, get shot in the head in the first 5 minutes, then spending "a lot" of time re-equipping my guy to get to another raid
ebon flume
Camping is part of the game tho
wet ledge
i mean its dam lame
interchange have a 50 mins
timer
i walk out as scavs during like 7 min remaining
ebon flume
Git gud 
rich cloak
@ebon flume you can not
bold kernel
Drink a invisibility potion
rich cloak
@wet ledge first of all no he isn't because you can't second of all you are not supposed to call of duty this game
wet ledge
im not running
rich cloak
And what the fuck is wrong with using a silencer? 
ebon flume
He was probably somewhere outside, try to use cover
rich cloak
The farthest you can go up and look outside are the billboard towers
ruby fox
what do you guys say is the meta kit rn? armor and health wise?
rich cloak
And some of the staircases that would lead to the roof
bold kernel
So nobody wanna carry my ass?
ruby fox
no, as in what armor and helmets, visors etc is meta rn?
ebon flume
Nobody here is gonna hold your hand I believe
rich cloak
@bold kernel there really isn't a way around that. It's hard and you will get fucked but that's what tarkov is about
bold kernel
What's the best map to start from?
olive plover
Camping is fine, extract camping is a pos move
bold kernel
I know the factory layout but it's brutal
solar onyx
Customs has a large amount of early game quests @bold kernel
bold kernel
Aight
unique kite
Auzhie you wanna duo on customs real quick?
bold kernel
Yeah sure
rich cloak
Customs is good because a lot of early quests are there and the layout is pretty simple (you allways have to go to the opposite end for extraction)
bold kernel
Hold on just a minute
sterile flame
yo can someone join so i could ask something
sacred hatch
Hello, how do I choose a role like BEAR on this Discord?
split vapor
You don’t
sacred hatch
Is it possible actually?
Ok
What are the best graphic settings for Tarkov?
What does the render distance setting do? It's a LOD setting?
thick mist
@sterile flame join what?
ebon flume
Whatever runs best on your system, I think. There are some good guides on yt @sacred hatch
Turn off the blur and noise stuff
Shadows help you see enemies in cqc
LOD is how detailed far away objects and models are afaik
torpid wraith
i have a very macro question. I cant get past it in my own head when playing however i always see streamers not seeming to care about the sound they make in raids. is it just they know so much about maps they are used to where the likely spots to find scavs/players? My thought process is just that information is so huge in this game and sound is a huge part of the info accessible to you in raid
ebon flume
Depends on where you are and at what time. Like in the beginning noone will be near your position in general. Also many streamers play careless and/or terminator mode
warm terrace
@torpid wraith yeah, they are confident in their gun fighting and reaction skills to be able to react to being shot at or if they hear someone around them step or ADS.
torpid wraith
Just makes me feel like i am playing the game WAAAAY too slow comparatively. But maybe thats not a bad thing. whatever gets the dub
ebon flume
I think you can play the game how you like.. Both aggressive and sneaky are viable approaches
Take interchange for instance, either you sneak around and take the smaller loot spots and ambush players, or rush to kiba kill the boss and prepare for heavy gunfights
Also depends on gear
thick mist
@torpid wraith streamers are also usually rolling with super meta gear and high level armor so they don't have to worry about getting shot as much
ebon flume
Exactly
thick mist
Also they probably have millions of roubles and making money isn't a problem to them so they don't really care about losing gear as much
ebon flume
Also some are just good at the game...
thick mist
Hell, some streamers like Veritas literally have people hand free kills and top gear to them lmao
And well yeah, they're also good
ebon flume
I watch grimmz from time to time and think "damn how did he do that"
night wedge
how usefull is a silencer
ruby sedge
@night wedge they are situational, good for playing solo and longer range shooting
or for your forward player in a squad
in a straight firefight you want a compensator, they give much more bonus' to your gun
thick mist
Silencers are one of the most useful attachments in the game apart from weapon optics
From medium-long range engagements it's EXTREMELY difficult to pinpoint where you're being shot from because it's impossible to hear the weapon firing
But yeah if you're sprinting around and playing paintball on Factory then they're not very useful
I always hate going out with them though because they're so expensive and I'm not very good at PvP so I know I'm going to lose them lmao
ebon flume
Someone almost killed me on woods and I did not hear the trace of a gunshot sound
vague wind
silencer is a pain in the ass to fight against in woods
because if they prone, they become one with the grass and you have no idea where its coming from
livid patrol
Why do I have play Customs? I mean I watched many videos where they all said that I had to play only customs when u're a beginner
For the task only?
waxen forge
You do not have to play only on customs
vague wind
just play what you want really
livid patrol
Factory is good enough?
waxen forge
People recommend that map as it has the first tasks and is big enough to move around but small enough to get some action. Can play whatever map you want
livid patrol
Okay got it
waxen forge
No. If you think Customs is hard factory won't be easier
ebon flume
Factory is hell on earth imo
livid patrol
thank you guys
waxen forge
Factory is the COD of tarkov. It's pretty much pure pvp with multiple angles to cover and is fast paced. No time to loot or do a lot. Not a good map to get used to mechanics on.\
ebon flume
I like shoreline, but stay away from the resort
And interchange has good loot
Not much experience with reserve and labs is essentially endgame because you need keycard
torpid wraith
thought you couldnt take handgaurds off during raid
ruby fox
what would u guys say is the best sniper rn?
strange mural
So is the priority
For attachments
Sights > grips etc > silencers etc
waxen forge
To sell?
strange mural
For use
waxen forge
I honestly mod a weapon to increase ergo and reduce recoil. Can't say I ever considered a hierarchy.
I like suppressors but it's not a must have for me.
night wedge
if i go scav and i got near a boss, he can kill me? or it will treat me like a scave or as a player?
ruby fox
i feel like running a sniper i kinda need a supressor on it
strange mural
Ive been thinking of getting a hunter and a scope to learn stuff
waxen forge
Basically scav boss kills PMC and player scavs.
ruby fox
are hunters very moddable?
night wedge
na they are a basic sniper rifle
ruby fox
i was sorta thinking about getting a saboteur, they any good/
waxen forge
For some bosses like Rashala his guards will kinda yell at you but the time between them yelling and when they start shooting is pretty small so best practice as a player scav is avoid boss unless you want to roll the dice with the fight.
"Good" is a lot about what you like. More important is the ammo
ruby fox
im gonna get a saboteur and see what i can do with it
ruby fox
yeah im not rlly looking for something cheap just want something good
dense lotus
bold kernel
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME ?

Does hunter require a scope stand for sights
thick mist
Depends on what optic you want
strange mural

Uhh

Gotta look at wikim
thick mist
What kind of optic are you trying to use?
It can fit standard PSO scopes without any additional mounts
strange mural
Havent tried anything yet just wondering
ruby fox
anybody know of any suppresors for the DVL-10?
thick mist
The 500mm barrel has an integral suppressor IIRC
ruby fox
does the 600mm
thick mist
🤷♂️
thick mist
If you inspect it it usually says
rich cloak
Hunter isn't a sniper rifle tho
ruby fox
what adapter is needed to put sights on the side of the rifel instead of tacticals?
thick mist
Ah
na they are a basic sniper rifle```What
thick mist

rich cloak
@ruby fox it goes on the top rail tho
ruby fox
so no long range sight then right
i need something that goes on the side so i can still aim
bold kernel
Is there a lfg chat cause I cant see one?
waxen forge
No it's canted red dot and can put zoom optic on too

@night wedge why would hunter be a sniper rifle?

@thick mist it doesnt seem to
thick mist
Hmm, what weapon?
plucky goblet
what are you trying to attach it to
plucky goblet
doesnt work on the dvl
plucky goblet
you can use something like the Hamr or Bravo and put a sight ontop of it
thick mist
What scope are you using? A lot either have or can attach backup sights
waxen forge
Honestly most aren't running many attachments on a sniper rifle.
Rifle, optic, maybe suppressor.
plucky goblet
theres also a 34mm mount that got rails ontop for sights
ruby fox
i already got a 34mm mount
plucky goblet
and if you want a sight ontop you need the one with rails ontop
thick mist
Then just put a reflex sight on top of that?
ruby fox
@plucky goblet rails ontop of the sight?
plucky goblet
thick mist
Either the 30mm JP one
ruby fox
oh i see
thick mist
Or the 34mm NF one ^
ruby fox
thanks
waxen forge
thick mist
Hamr can be kinda eh for sniping but yeah
waxen forge
Or you run a 4x like the 2 above with an integrated red dot (that you have to buy)

So what's the easiest way to get Skier's money thing to 1 mil anyway? I just don't know what to buy or sell

@ruby fox for using a dlv ID actually reccomned using either a backup weapon or a scope where you can go to 1 times magnification

Break weapons into parts. Sell parts to Skier...then what he won't buy sell rest to Mechanic
rich cloak
@modern willow all attachments he buys
empty lodge
Heya !! EFT will have deals for black Friday ? sorry to jump in the middle haha
waxen forge
Buy attachments from skier.
rich cloak
Skier has the best price on them
thick mist
waxen forge
At times there is a Christmas sale...no guarantee
modern willow
Okay, I used to just buy and sell his shotgun barrels but it's taking a while
waxen forge
When you loot weapons and gear you should be breaking weapons into parts and selling parts to skier then rest of gun to Mechanic. Also should be selling rigs, helmets, and other gear to Skier.
modern willow
Alright, thanks!

Jesus I hate the prone mechanics in this game
If you're on the slightest downhill slope you can't elevate your gun at all lmao
Got the drop on this guy running up to me but since I was prone I couldn't even elevate enough to shoot him rip

Wtf
Skier LL2 sells VPO-136 for 30k lmao
That's so dumb
They really need to adjust a lot of the trader prices
Especially considering you can just buy them for ~16k on flea

does anybody know why when using the same comtacs inside a building, I can sometimes hear someone moving as slow as possible crouched through walls, when other times I can't hear them moving at all?
I've been killed by this a couple times recently and it's really annoying because I can't figure out why it seems so inconsistent

Some comtacs better than others. Also you have a skill that you lvl that makes it easier to hear footsteps

just at a wipe or if you reset ur self

If I have an alpha box but I would like to upgrade to a gamma box, is that possible in any way, even somehow through the official tarkov website?
I can’t just purchased a game at container on the market and use it in the same slot right?
solemn rampart
You can get different sized containers by doing your quests i believe but gamma is locked to eod edition of the game. Just so you know theres a container bigger than gamma called kappa that you earn by completing all quests in game then youll get a quest to hand in all the streamer items found in raid to get the kappa

i have a metal fuel tank, how can i get it filled?
solemn rampart
I dont refill them, i buy them from yeager lvl2 its really cheP and u can get 2 every trader refresh
simple topaz
Oh sweet thanks @solemn rampart . I did see a gamma on the market, if I saved up and bought that would it work for me if i only have standard edition?
solemn rampart
Yes, tho its unlikely to ever get it from flea market
simple topaz
weird I saw some on there
solemn rampart
If you have a friend that has eod they can sell all of their stuff, put money in the container and drop it for you then wipe their acc for fresh start
strange mural
isnt doing all quests incredibly hard though
i know gammas sell for high millions
simple topaz
lol
yeah I’d be better getting it off the market lol these quests are ridiculous
I’ll wait till no more wipes though
solemn rampart
Im getting close to finishing many quest lines. Id say im in the last quarter or so of quests and im between casual n hardcore as i work 4 days 12 hours a day.
strange mural
how much stuff can you actually hold on base edition storage if you just put backbags into backbags
simple topaz
unfortunately I find backpacks into backpacks doesn’t work well because they are all huge
thick mist
Not much because usually when you put backpacks into backpacks there's hardly any room for other things
strange mural
yeahh
thick mist
It's only useful for storing other backpacks
simple topaz
Honestly weapons and items cases in this game are too damn expensive and rare
covert sonnet
Flechete or AP-20 do you think guys?
thick mist
Yeah but they're insanely good which is why they're so pricey
simple topaz
Millions of rubles just to store some stuff
Where do you even get them besides market?
strange mural
how much do thiccs cost
thick mist
Really need to introduce cheaper storage options
solemn rampart
I have a big back pack with a beta, with 2 pilgrams, 2-3 trizips, 5 berkuts, 8 scav back backs all inside 1 back pack
simple topaz
Thics are like 9 million
thick mist
Items are like 9 mil
strange mural
j e s u s
thick mist
Weapons are 3mil
simple topaz
@solemn rampart what is the big backpack holding everything
solemn rampart
@covert sonnet fleche if using a toz until u unlock a certain ap but i forgot what it is.
thick mist
@simple topaz Mystery Ranch lmao
simple topaz
ah
thick mist
Like 42 slots I think
simple topaz
I’m so damn poor in this game no idea how people get so rich between wipes
thick mist
Stores more than it takes up
Either being insanely good at this game or doing lab runs
solemn rampart
@simple topaz i cant remember atm as im at work but i do know its holding a beta back pack with some gun and mags, sv sniper i think. The bera continues the inception
strange mural
ive just seen some of that one guys loot goblin videos and... doesnt that mean hes literally carrying around like 40m gear
i know its just before wipe but still
thick mist
You mean the video was right before wipe?
Because the next wipe isn't for a long while
strange mural
yeah
simple topaz
what’s so special about labs? Just crazy loot to sell? Or you get geared player loot
strange mural
before this last wipe.
thick mist
Yes.
solemn rampart
@covert sonnet look up the best ammo for toz video, i think its from pestily, he goes trough it and its recent upload
thick mist
Meaning crazy loot and geared players
LEDX's have a decent chance to spawn there and they sell for 2.2mil right now
Virtex's sell for 1mil
VPX's sell for 650k
solemn rampart
I make all my money from interchange and reserve and quests.
thick mist
Also people either do hatchet runs there or go fully kitted out with juggernaut armor and kitted M4's
So if you manage to kill someone you get insane loot
solemn rampart
Ive recently spent like more than 2 mil in flea market on keys yesterday
thick mist
It's a huge risk vs reward though because to even get in you need to pay 220k for a keycard lmao
So it's a very big gambling thing that can be addicting
I had around 7mil from labs but then day after day I kept getting awful luck with spawns
Dropped to 2mil
Now I am just poor and scared to use not-dirt-cheap loadouts rip
solemn rampart
I do interchange for the tech stores loot, oli's industrial goods, and search pcs for graphics cards and flash drives. Reserve has multiple way to loot/run it for good money
simple topaz
lol that’s like me except I’ve got like 100k
rustic hinge
OP-SKS not so budget sniper? PSO + suppressor = 80k+?
thick mist
If you're using a suppressor and optic there's no such thing as budget haha
rustic hinge
I C
solemn rampart
@rustic hinge id recomend using the valday sight 1x-4x with supressor on op sks 20 round mag
bold ruin
I wish there were more sherpas 
rustic hinge
valday? ok. I'l check it out. same mounts needed as if mounting PSO?
thick mist
I'd actually suggest using the VPO-136 though because it uses the same caliber as SKS but much cheaper and easier to mod
solemn rampart
For everything its like 60k-70k i think
simple topaz
Is doing night time runs with cheap night vision goggles a good way to avoid too many people ??
thick mist
Nope. Valday needs picatinny
solemn rampart
@simple topaz yes
thick mist
Yes Merc
rustic hinge
kk
thick mist
Generally safer
simple topaz
So if I get my hatchet and cheap NVGs and go run through interchange or forest or reserve it’d be easier?
thick mist
Also easier to fight Scavs because they have flashlights so easy to spot and they have shorter spot distance themselves
simple topaz
oooh that’s good to know I have to kill 15 scavs on woods and I keep getting headshot from a PMC sniper 300m away
thick mist
I mean if you're bringing NVG you might as well just bring a gun
rustic hinge
is there a website with like, weapon loadouts to look at?
solemn rampart
Honestly i dont run nvgs very often into night raids, 1/2 the time i can see really well cus its bright out for no reason 1/4 i can just barely make ny way around and rest of the time i see well enough.
thick mist
Meaning good cheap loadouts @rustic hinge ?
rustic hinge
yup
thick mist
There's a LOT of YouTube videos you can look at
rustic hinge
no no, those are often misleading
simple topaz
If I do NVG on woods for this 15 scav kill on woods run and want a cheap sniper to kill my scavs what kit would you recommend
rustic hinge
clickbait for views
simple topaz
and I guess I’d need a thermal or nvg scope
solemn rampart
@rustic hinge you can also use presets and just mess around. Note that attachments you can use on a gun wont show up until you inspect it when using presets
rustic hinge
I'v watched a few weapon loadout vids on youtube. most of the time it's 10+ minutes of gameplay and maybe 1 minute of loadout explanation
thick mist
I mean yeah, it's kinda helpful to see how the gun performs in-game
strange mural
so does the exp you get from offline actually level you up?
thick mist
No
strange mural
thought so 
thick mist
Just devs being dumb dumb
solemn rampart
@simple topaz run cheap nvg mask, take a mosin with scope and supp or sks with scope and supp thats what i do
thick mist
Neither scavs nor offline give you exp
solemn rampart
What u mean, hk good right outa the box XD
simple topaz
@solemn rampart thanks. Can you put nvg on a mosin?
strange mural
next question: are there any other inventory hotkeys other than control and alt clicks, and r to turn items, something like opening inventories?
solemn rampart
@simple topaz theres a nvg scope but i never used it
zenith compass
Middle click for checking mags/inspecting items
solemn rampart
@ruby fox well if you find the recoil to be fine then build for ergonomics. Use a valday sight and a suppressor is up to u. Just build a preset and equip and try out all kinds of attachments till your satisfied.
ruby fox
ok, what actual does ergonomics do?
ruby fox
oh ok thats pretty nice
split vapor
Much noise you make when changing sights
ruby fox
is it viable to build for both or is it better to choose one?
solemn rampart
@ruby fox ergo decides how long you can ads, how well the gun handles, that kinda thing
solemn rampart
@simple topaz u can use nvg mask/helmet with normal scope but make sure you dont have any kind of glowing sight or red dot or what not as those wont work since nvg just amplify s light
vague wind
my holo worked with nvg
solemn rampart
@ruby fox i think you can do both but its probably best to do one.
ruby fox
ok
simple topaz
Thanks @solemn rampart
How do people like streamers have such good ADS accuracy with no reticle? SURELY they have a sticker on their screen or a mark or something or some software putting one on there at all times? They get perfect headshots 50m away with ADS
ruby fox
would u say the m4a1 or the HK are better? or are they both good?
split vapor
Nearly the same mods
solemn rampart
Just use what you find comfortable and find good looking
split vapor
Hk has a higher rof
ruby fox
m4 higher damage? or something?
split vapor
Uh no
solemn rampart
M4 good, hk better
split vapor
Damage is bullet related
solemn rampart
@simple topaz point shooting (hip fireing) is viable because bullets fly straight from barrel unlike games like cod or battlefield, you can practice to get good with it
strange mural
so are there any guides on how to level up your specific skills
split vapor
Wiki
solemn rampart
What skills?
split vapor
Tells you what to do
solemn rampart
Strength, chuck nades and whack people with melee
strange mural
and something something concealed movement something
simple topaz
Surely they put a sticker on their monitor though
solemn rampart
No, ive pointshot guys from 30ish meters before (though it was a lucky headshot) as for ads, its not hard to get kills 50-150 meters away
simple topaz
crazy
solemn rampart
Concealed movement to lvl it just crouch walk at slowest speed a lot
thick mist
I really wish there was an in-game description of how to level it though
solemn rampart
I typed too much for being on phone XD
solemn rampart
I just baught stuff from ragman then sold it back till i was good
Dosnt really matter what
rich cloak
It doesn't matter what you buy from ragman
You'll allways get 57 percent return value
vague wind
i find leveling ragman the hardest for some reason
rich cloak
The best for peacekeeper is the Mp5k but you can only buy 5 per restock
@vague wind because he doesn't buy shit
I sell all my dogtags to ragman
thick mist
Wooow there's a max amount of penis hats you can buy
rich cloak
Yes
thick mist
Also Ragman is hard to level because everything he sells is usually useless
At LL1 at least
rich cloak
Penis helmet tho
thick mist
Still think they should bring it down a bit
1mil is a tad absurd
Maybe 800k for LL2
Or 750
rich cloak
Yeah that seems reasonable
ruby sedge
I wouldn't be upset, Ragman is usually the worst to get lvl 2
I mean my pmc was always looking slick in raid to get money spent but hey lol
thick mist
Never really understood the point in leveling traders anyway since it's usually just cheaper to buy on flea market
rich cloak
Not allways
thick mist
Well yeah there's a few things here and there but generally flea is better
Didn't the flea market used to not be in the game?
Or has it always been
rich cloak
I think it's been added at some point after traders?
strange mural
im trying to study up the wiki
and in the mods section
if it doesnt mention any sights other than the standard
are there none compatible
fore example the sks
plucky goblet
you need mounts for sights on the SKS
thick mist
Yeah, only the OP SKS (the tan one) can use sights
