[bold kernel]

i got download

nice

[fathom narwhal]

what map are u going

[bold kernel]

not sure yet, I don't know them like at all so i have no preference

[modern steppe]

also what is a t bag?

[frosty crown]

for armour when theres that little wrench icon that says like 0/30

wtf is that

[bold kernel]

the quality of it I think

[modern steppe]

durability

[frosty crown]

cuz i see on the market that armor has all different numbers even if its the same kind

[modern steppe]

wont take any more shots

[bold kernel]

thats what I meant

[modern steppe]

but you can repair for cheap

[frosty crown]

so if theres a cheap armor thats like 0/18 but theres more expensive ones that are like 47/47

buy the cheap one and repair?

[bold kernel]

not nescissarily because the cheap ones usually only block buck shot or pistol rounds, so it wouldn't protect from rifle rounds like the expensive one might

depending on the armor lvl

[rich cloak]

@frosty crown never buy armor with a max durability lower than 75 percent of the max

[frosty crown]

ok thank you @rich cloak

like for example the 6b13s max is

47?

so dont buy it below 35?

[bold kernel]

yep

[marsh marten]

any sherpas?

[frosty crown]

any good cheaper armors?

and helmets?

[rich cloak]

@frosty crown I suspect you are newer?

[frosty crown]

ya lvl 6

[rich cloak]

Okay

[frosty crown]

ive got like 2 mil tho

[rich cloak]

I'd say don't buy armor

Use armor you find and repair it

The use of armor is very limiting

[frosty crown]

aight

[rich cloak]

If you run into a player he will shred everything beneath level 5 armor

[frosty crown]

I just get so nervous if I ever take out a gun that isnt complete trash into a raid xD

[rich cloak]

For helmets I like the ssh

[acoustic timber]

scavs are a joke in this game

lmao

or im just unlucky

[rich cloak]

The only time armor really matters is when fighting scavs imo

@acoustic timber both probably

[acoustic timber]

i got headshotted by a ai scav with a mosin

[rich cloak]

Jup

[frosty crown]

so all I need rn is my pp-19 a rig and a bag?

no armor

[rich cloak]

I recommend not using a pp19 but yes

[frosty crown]

why not

[acoustic timber]

cause its bad

[rich cloak]

It's really bad Yeah

[frosty crown]

its the only gun i have 😦 lol

[acoustic timber]

i mean not with ap 6.3

pp19 with ap shreds..

[robust jackal]

@acoustic timber they will either be potatos or aimbot you

My advice?

[acoustic timber]

yeah like bruh

[zinc tapir]

anyone's code take longer than an hour?

[robust jackal]

Shoot first

[acoustic timber]

i heard a scav and turned around and died

[wooden juniper]

Anyone looking for a group??? New player wanting to run something other than solo

[rich cloak]

You have to hit a headshot to kill

And at that point you could use a PM and be as efficient

[acoustic timber]

why is the SKS SO GOOD

[rich cloak]

@frosty crown good budget guns are: sks vepr 7.62

And Mosin

[steady pilot]

sks isnt good

lmao

[rich cloak]

It's not good overall

But it's a solid budget option

[acoustic timber]

i killed this gear dude with a ps

[steady pilot]

veprkm is immensely better for 14k on market

[frosty crown]

i always get clapped by other pmcs when i use the mosin

last round i got 2 shots into a guy

[acoustic timber]

sks or vepr

[frosty crown]

and he just sprayed me down

[rich cloak]

If you are a good shot Mosin is really good

[steady pilot]

sv98 cost the same and is better than mosin

[acoustic timber]

yeah it can kill anything with a headshot i think

snb??

or any 5.45

[rich cloak]

@wooden juniper go to #news-setup and #521628660298678283 when you are done with that you'll have access to the #pvp-lfg channel

[steady pilot]

762 7n1 has 84 dmg45 pen

effectively 1 taps up to lvl 4 armor and lvl 5 armor on luck

m80 is 80 dmg/45 pen and is the same

[wooden juniper]

tnx @rich cloak

[rich cloak]

If you wanna be cheaky and fuck over geared players vepr hunter is the way to go

M80 is relatively cheap and amazing

[steady pilot]

yep

[rich cloak]

@frosty crown and don't forget to bring headsets

One of the most important pieces of gear

[frosty crown]

ya ive gotten a couple and they seem great

stupid question but how do headsets make u hear better?

do they like take in sound outside

cuz my headphones make me not hear shit xD

im talking about irl

[acoustic timber]

i think u get like ringing or something

oh

[frosty crown]

like how do they work lol

[rich cloak]

They amplify sound

The priceyer headsets have nicer filtration

[cursive tendon]

hello everyone im new to the game is there any tips or anyone able to help a new player to the game

[stark rain]

@cursive tendon you ever watched vids?

[rich cloak]

@cursive tendon go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup and accept

[cursive tendon]

[stark rain]

[rich cloak]

@frosty crown I don't understand the question sorry

[stark rain]

*first

[cursive tendon]

i did #521628660298678283 and #news-setup

[rich cloak]

Oh okay

[uneven meteor]

I just joined a team and the first thing they did was shoot me ;-;

[rich cloak]

You should get the PMC role soon

[stark rain]

@uneven meteor never join teams you dont know

[rich cloak]

@uneven meteor don't use Ingame lfg

[acoustic timber]

yeah you will regret it

[rich cloak]

That's all tagt happens

[uneven meteor]

i think i learn that the hard way xD

[wooden gazelle]

so how are we supposed to do any runs in like interchange right now...its packed with squads

[stark rain]

you camp

[acoustic timber]

maybe go in with a squad

[fickle kettle]

@stark rain lol why you have so many country role xd

[stark rain]

and take some nice ammo

[uneven meteor]

I just run around killing people

and have no clue where exits are

[wooden gazelle]

lvl 3 here.....no clue what nice ammo is lol

[uneven meteor]

Arma 3 skills come in handy

But need to learn the game lol

[stark rain]

@fickle kettle I speak a lotta languages haah

[fickle kettle]

lol ok xd

[uneven meteor]

Any tips

[stark rain]

learn the maps

[pastel marsh]

yo anyone down to play with a level 4

[stark rain]

go to escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com

and learn the maps

[zinc tapir]

when i open the launcher and put in my code, it says i need to buiy the gamne even though i already bought it

[wooden gazelle]

i have a triple monitor setup...discord, eft, map of where im raiding lol

[uneven meteor]

pmc is a no no for me at the moment

just wasting meds when i die :c

[stark rain]

You dont even need the map if u play more

[fickle kettle]

agreeable, in the early game meds is very needed

[rich cloak]

@uneven meteor put your meds into your secure container

[uneven meteor]

I do but when i die i need to heal my character right?

[rich cloak]

Or you wait

[stark rain]

That's the point

[uneven meteor]

or i didnt know u can wait

yikes

[rich cloak]

Yes

You have pasiv healthregen

[stark rain]

You play scav as soon as the cooldown is ready

[acoustic timber]

is it bad to do pistol runs

[rich cloak]

You can upgrade it by upgrading the med bay in the hideout

[acoustic timber]

im thinking about doing one

[stark rain]

@acoustic timber depends on how

[fickle kettle]

better than doin hatchet run

[uneven meteor]

the idea of scav is to not kill other scavs right?

[rich cloak]

@acoustic timber not really

[stark rain]

If you know the map, nope

[uneven meteor]

or should ikill them on sight

[stark rain]

@uneven meteor Not really

It depends

[acoustic timber]

im poor

as fucccccccck

[stark rain]

Actually, it's totally up to u

[acoustic timber]

is 2 mill alot

[stark rain]

2 mil is a lot for me

lol

I dont keep money

[acoustic timber]

i feel like im in constant need of money

[rich cloak]

@acoustic timber 2 mil is super okay

[uneven meteor]

and what is the point of hideouts

like is it a raid thing

or just a spot ur char goes

[stark rain]

It's like a

[uneven meteor]

srry for all the questions btw lol

[stark rain]

buff center

for ur pmc

[acoustic timber]

its alright

[rich cloak]

Its nothing special but you aren't at risk or anything

[acoustic timber]

is scav box worth getting

[rich cloak]

Yes

[acoustic timber]

crap

[rich cloak]

100 percent

[stark rain]

If ur lucky, yes

[uneven meteor]

what even is a scav box

lol

[rich cloak]

@stark rain kappa

[stark rain]

kappa

[rich cloak]

It's a conatiner that holds barteritems for you

Basically it keeps you stash clean

And stashspace is very very limited when you have the standard version

[uneven meteor]

Which map you guys recommend I should learn first

[rotund falcon]

GUYS ON YOUR PROFILE PAGE

Customs

[rich cloak]

@uneven meteor customs

Has most of the early game quests and is easy to learn

[stark rain]

CUSTOMS

[modern steppe]

is eod worth it

[stark rain]

yes

[uneven meteor]

Okay and I know there is a online map to learn it right?

[rich cloak]

Absolutely

[acoustic timber]

oh yeah @modern steppe u got that loot run down

[modern steppe]

nah bro havent been able to play for like 24 hours sadly

[rotund falcon]

@burnt loom you tried clicking on the little letter by your purchase?

I got my email to upgrade that way

[shadow cloud]

[acoustic timber]

well u have been playing tarkov for 13 hours but alright

[modern steppe]

[rich cloak]

@shadow cloud keep stuff

[modern steppe]

i have a life I swear

[acoustic timber]

[rich cloak]

[modern steppe]

[rich cloak]

[modern steppe]

[acoustic timber]

[modern steppe]

[rich cloak]

Energy waster

[rich cloak]

It is not

[acoustic timber]

what about the night vision thing

on reshade

[fickle kettle]

but be advice the lastest ver of reshade is being bugg

[rich cloak]

The debs said they will make sure word gets out if they ever plan on changing that

[acoustic timber]

i mean like delete it

[modern steppe]

how do i install reshade doe

[fickle kettle]

so i recommned you just use NIVIDA freestyle

[acoustic timber]

i was wondering if i copuld use it but im not sure

[modern steppe]

i heard nght raids are ez

[acoustic timber]

didnt some dude said

nivida wasnt working

[rotund falcon]

I just upgraded to eod wtf do I do with this space?

[rich cloak]

@acoustic timber the newer versions are bugged

[fickle kettle]

[rich cloak]

Including night vision

[acoustic timber]

im using a older version

[rich cloak]

Oh did they

Damn

[fickle kettle]

freestyle are a okay now 👌

[rich cloak]

@rotund falcon trust me it won't take long and you stash will be filled

@modern steppe just check a YouTube video it's really easy

[acoustic timber]

bro my stash is almost filled

should i upgraaaade

[fickle kettle]

it normal, even EOD player can get full stash xd

[hallow owl]

anyone know how long the upgrade takes to come into effect

[fickle kettle]

and i recommend you try to buy some cases xd

[modern steppe]

imagine having 2 mil\

HOW

[acoustic timber]

lets just say i do alot of custoooooooooooooooooooooooooooms

[rich cloak]

@acoustic timber don't keep Magazins

They cost hardly anything and take up space

[fickle kettle]

@acoustic timber please buy cases and fold the weapon xd

and also i think you can upgrade your stash in hideout

[rich cloak]

And you can take the grips off of your weapons to make them only 1 slot wide

[modern steppe]

how do customs get you loot\

i thought reserve was better

[acoustic timber]

should i buy a mag case

[stark rain]

@fickle kettle Nice profile pic

[rich cloak]

@fickle kettle yes but it costs about 4 mil

[fickle kettle]

@stark rain tyty

@rich cloak so you like to spend irl den xd ?

[rich cloak]

@acoustic timber you do you but I don't reccomned

[strange tide]

why does jager get mad at every quest i do that isnt his.

[acoustic timber]

@strange tide cause he is a bitch

[rich cloak]

@fickle kettle I did but my point was that kuzeno is not gonna do that any time soon

[acoustic timber]

no really

i mean it would be great

[strange tide]

i got scammed yesterday by @ Paulie Walnuts#1254

but i made some money back

[zealous forge]

Ok so how do I become good at PMC runs?

Because every time I've joined I get immediately into a fight

[strange tide]

you kill them

and get good

[acoustic timber]

bruh

[fickle kettle]

ummm that is a very hard question because it depend on you alots

[strange tide]

why dont you build a shooting range and train your shooting?

[rich cloak]

Jäger is a fucking hoe don't @ me

Only selling shit and thinks it's okay to give you fucking..366 ammo as a quest reward

[strange tide]

maybe you dont get warned up enough

[zealous forge]

Usually I get the first guy typically a player but I'm completely fucked up and get picked off by a scav before I can heal

[fickle kettle]

that mean you have a very bad timming

and not good at postioning

[acoustic timber]

what map u running @zealous forge

[fickle kettle]

if any 1 have a question just dm me, i can answer + i can stream to answer that question

[rich cloak]

@zealous forge even if you have a clean shot it's not allways the best play to take it

[fickle kettle]

but no vc cause my english is not good and i'm jp 👌

[rich cloak]

@fickle kettle are you Japanese?

[acoustic timber]

where did that come from lol

[rich cloak]

Where did what come from?

Oh wow I'm a reatrd aperently

[acoustic timber]

me too im reatrd

[jovial bolt]

do i need bloodset syringe or plyers for anything important?

[rich cloak]

Man

[fickle kettle]

@rich cloak ya

[rich cloak]

I put the sexy into dyslexia if you know what I mean

Oh wait

[jovial bolt]

[rich cloak]

@jovial bolt bloodset for medbay upgrades

[jovial bolt]

so keep it?

[fickle kettle]

tch lucky that my english not that good eough to understand that 👌

[rich cloak]

Your call

[lyric echo]

i used to play a lot back a few patches ago. but i need PMC kills for task and every raid is beefy boys vs my bad ammo

is there a diff path im supposed to take

[rich cloak]

@fickle kettle don't worry about it

@lyric echo vepr hunter

[fickle kettle]

@jovial bolt blood set + syringe is usefull but i dont remember what is the plyers

[lyric echo]

is it m80+ or something

[rich cloak]

Players are used for toolsets

@lyric echo yes M80

It has 80 dmg and 45 pen

[lyric echo]

can i buy as lvl 2?

[rich cloak]

Nope

[lyric echo]

ah

[rich cloak]

You should level up first

At level 5 you get acces to flea

[lyric echo]

yeah

just trying to get there

[rich cloak]

Yeah just do whatever in the meanwhile

[lyric echo]

even in factory spam

[rich cloak]

And examine everything from traders

[lyric echo]

i run into big bois

[rich cloak]

Factory is not something you wanna run to make money

[lyric echo]

lol i literally did scan all vendors while i was chilling here

im not trying to make money

[jovial bolt]

most of the time i die in factory

[lyric echo]

trying for pmc kills for task

[rich cloak]

What task do you need to do?

[lyric echo]

pmc kill is prapor right

[rich cloak]

I don't think so

[zealous forge]

@acoustic timber customs mainly

[rich cloak]

I don't know what task you are talking about

[zealous forge]

@rich cloak if they're aiming at me and 50ms away I don't have much choice

[rich cloak]

Obviously

[fickle kettle]

srs i really dont recommned new player for custom cause custom is a pvp map

and quest map, for newplayer they should try to play scav + learn map + learn lootable

rather than enter custom for pvp lol

[sly pond]

ive been scaving custom often and im a newer player

[fickle kettle]

@sly pond please scav reser or interchange lol

[jovial bolt]

scaving customs is whati did for my first 2 days to get to know the map

[smoky kindle]

So I’m not a real gamer and I bought two keys for the resort now I’m kinda poor did I do a bad

[rich cloak]

Uhm

Should I sugarcoat it?

[smoky kindle]

Yes please

I have enough gear to not resort to hatchet runs tho

[rich cloak]

So resort is a bit doo doo when it comes to easy grabbing loot

You should most likely not have done that

It can work if you hatchet run it

But yeah it wasn't a so called progamer move

[smoky kindle]

Oh well I guess I’m not a true gamer

[rich cloak]

It's okay to not be a true gamer

Probably means you have life

[brazen owl]

Hello, is there any tutorial on how to play as Duo?

[snow kite]

Share novement info... a lot

[sly pond]

and have good callouts

[gritty cape]

@brazen owl i can provide a link in your pms to a youtube video

[brazen owl]

But is there any "build"?

Yeah send it Jaws

I've seen the game has "skill trees" and etc on the wiki

[snow kite]

What do you mean a „build“?

[brazen owl]

Would be a good idea for one to focus on a certain one while the other ups the another?

[snow kite]

Well i think you cant really affect that... just ply the game and it will slowly find its way to the top

[buoyant flume]

wtf - did they change the Exfils on interchange?

I have 2 ones I've never had berfore (it was always a train one before)

[snow kite]

Nope

Still the same for me

[buoyant flume]

I have emercom and power station wtf

No idea where those are... I've run this like 15+ times and it's always been the same 2 (not these ones)

[snow kite]

Well you spawned at the train station thingy side of the map

[brazen owl]

Counter Strike Global Offensive usually have roles like Entry Fragger/Support, where one flashes for the other to enter, follow-up, trade kill, etc, is that doable and practical on EFT?

I'm sorry if these questions are dumb, I'm excited for the game

[buoyant flume]

I feel like no matter where I've spawned it's always been the same irrespective though... eah

[sly pond]

emercom in inside

[buoyant flume]

jesus

https://eftmkg.com/interchange-full-Lorathor6.html Where's power station?

Bottom right?

This is what I have atm.. Trying to salvage my bag stuff lol

[rich cloak]

@sly pond it's not

[dense lotus]

It’s outside

[rich cloak]

@buoyant flume ermercom is In the southeast

[dense lotus]

Around the back of “IDEA”

[sly pond]

i knew it was near idea didnt realize it was outside

[buoyant flume]

Gotcha. Thanks

[rich cloak]

Power plant costs 3000 roubles to extract

[buoyant flume]

"Sub station" on the map then

Sorry so where's emercom then?

[rich cloak]

Jup you really don't wanna loose this

[dense lotus]

Outside, around the back of Oli, all the way in the back

[buoyant flume]

Okay

[rich cloak]

Well it's In gamma so whatever

[buoyant flume]

Yeah I have the good shit in Gamma

[rich cloak]

It's a street with a truck on it next to a fence

[dense lotus]

It’s cool he wants to learn extracts 😄

[smoky kindle]

Night raids better for resort loot or no cuz I just wanna get something cool

[rich cloak]

If you rush it the chance of getting spotted is lower on night raids yes

[smoky kindle]

Epic epic epic epic epic epic epic

When do scabs usually spawn at resort?

Scavs

[rich cloak]

No clue

Not a shoreline gamer myself

Reserve all the way

Ight imma head out good luck fellas

[buoyant flume]

Pce

[errant snow]

YES

I DID IT

[placid stream]

can anyone give me a hint what the transport workers shack extract looks like on customs?

[errant snow]

Interchange extracted

[placid stream]

i'm losing my shit trying to find it

oh wait i randomly walked into it lol

it's just a pile of crap on the ground? weird

[frank beacon]

you mean trailerpark workers shack?

[placid stream]

@frank beacon yeah

i was there for ages trying to find it

[smoky kindle]

I’m fucking done I did a raid and this guy comes in, I go to burst him down and my game just fucking freezes for like 29 seconds and I’m dead

[errant snow]

What's a machinery key for?

[smoky kindle]

It’s for the bronze watch prapor quest, customs has a oil truck that’s in construction zone and you open the door and the watch is there

[errant snow]

Pog

Thanks Scav run

[smoky kindle]

It’s in the middle of the construction building that’s like two stories talk

[dense lotus]

[bronze prism]

@fathom narwhal just get a flashlight

i think i solod it second try

[fathom narwhal]

yea i solo it a while ago

do you guys usually use the group search for pmc

[fickle kettle]

Dont do that because the group search is global

[normal abyss]

Also people will teamkill

Sometimes accidentally

[errant snow]

HDDs keep or sell?

[fickle kettle]

May need a few for hideout upgrade and for quest

[errant snow]

Ite

[worldly galleon]

any kind soul wiling to guide a lvl 1 around shoreline

[fickle kettle]

@worldly galleon you should try on offline mode to learn the map friend

And why shoreline xd

[worldly galleon]

i did a few offline runs on just shoreline so i know that area the best

[fickle kettle]

You mean map ?

[worldly galleon]

yeah the map shoreline. thats the only area ive been to so far

[fickle kettle]

You should try other map too, cause shoreline isnt the bestt map for new player

[worldly galleon]

okay

[bronze prism]

@worldly galleon do customs

lots of early missions there

[dense lotus]

Yup, customs is a nice beginner map, also interchange.. inter is very good for quick loot, without any keys needed

[worldly galleon]

okay i'm just doing scav runs at the moment. did a sucessful raid a little bit ago and dont want to lose anything just yet

[fickle kettle]

Ah i know that feeling xd

[ripe basin]

So I just died and I thought I had enough health but maybe I died because I was thirsty? I managed to get a clip of my stats before I died.

[snow kite]

Yep... dehydration

[worldly galleon]

dehydration for sure

[lapis mauve]

you need a lot of meds to survive dehydration

[dense lotus]

So when your hydration is 0, you lose health over time. If you head or thorax hit 0, due to dehydration you will die

You gotta heal your head and thorax, to stay alive

[ripe basin]

Oh dang I didn't know that. I probably ate too many painkillers.

[smoky kindle]

Does anyone know why I keep spawning at the docks in shoreline?

[snow kite]

The gods will

[fickle kettle]

Life

[fathom narwhal]

so i got eod

how long do i have to wait again

an hour?

[snow kite]

Maybe less... for me it did it in 10-15 minutes

[ripe basin]

Yeah the announcement said wait an hour, and if it still isn't available to you contact support.

[fickle kettle]

You have to understand that is blackfriday xd

[fathom narwhal]

and i dont have to reset my acc right?

true

[fickle kettle]

No please dont reset your acc

[sly pond]

i've been waiting for like an hour myself and it hasn't updated. but they are saying it could take a lot longer.

[fathom narwhal]

i just upgraded my acc

o ok

so i dont need to

[sly pond]

you don't need to reset from what they have said.

its just that it could take a while with all the people upgrading and getting the game

[buoyant flume]

Nah you don't

I restarted game after 20-30 mins and got a message from Proper in game

[last peak]

whats the fastest way to earn roubles

[daring ember]

prostitution

[zealous forge]

lmao

[fathom narwhal]

wiggle for loot

i usually just run straight to exit as scav in factory for easy 20-30k when i was in desperate need of money

but u can definitely get more money looting the deadbody

in factory

[errant snow]

My luck is changing

[fathom narwhal]

good or bad

[errant snow]

2 inter runs and got out

[fathom narwhal]

wew

giv luck

[errant snow]

This was after a 19 death streak lmao

[fathom narwhal]

[errant snow]

I heard night raids are for questing

So maybe?

Ouch had a guy tank 2 bullets to the head without a helmet

F

it depend

you can check on flea market for their price

if the item worth alots den keep it

but i advice to keep alots of stuff cause you may need them for hideout - barter - quest

[sand apex]

some items are needed for quests, and often it's required that they're "find in raid" which means buying from the flea market won't work, but items you found in raid before you got the quest will

so worth saving those

the wiki can tell you if an item is needed for a quest

almost every item has some use be it quest, barter, or hideout

though apollon cigarettes still remain useless heh

[last peak]

thank you very much avi and arkallius

[errant snow]

Time to watch walking dead, good sessions today

Night all

[crimson granite]

Does anybody have interchange map with exits?

i want to go there but i cant find any good map on google

[ripe basin]

I pm'd you the one I was using ^_^

[crimson granite]

Thank you very much!

[stone surge]

@crimson granite Interchange is quite easy with exits. They're both outside in a corner, one behind the highway/construction site, the other one close to tents.

So if you wanna exit, you always go outside first then walk around the mall till you find your exit basically

till you're more familiar with the map, you can actually exit at the correct side.

[dense lotus]

A very very.. simple map

[obsidian eagle]

anyone available to run customs? i need two tasks and dont want to risk solo, have key i need, but dont know where to go for water room in dorm.

plus dorms i feel are high foot traffic, im a lvl 8 pmc 😦

[cobalt peak]

how much roubles to make scav case from start?

[lapis mauve]

@obsidian eagle wiki will tell you the room if you search the quest. try it at night, there are less people. i'd go with ya but i'm about to go to sleep

[shell verge]

BEAR or USEC, which one better for beginning with EOD edition?

[stone surge]

@shell verge They're the same

well, there's no difference gameplay wise is what I mean

bear is russian, usec is american

so the only difference is voice lines and dogtags

[bold kernel]

USEC 3 ftw

[stone surge]

Maybe when the game is out usec and bear might be 2 different factions that can't team up, but idk that's not the case right now.

[onyx onyx]

I just Brought the Pre-order how do i download the beta?

[vivid loom]

i think you must wait for the email

[onyx onyx]

ok

[bronze oak]

just upgraded from standard to eod. do i have to wait or is there something i need to do?

[upper sky]

why does physical bitcoin sell for so much? using to trade for Labs keycard..?

[gritty cape]

@bronze oak you've gotta wait. Servers are backed up. Might take a few hours

[bronze oak]

@gritty cape is it safe to play or should i wait till it upgrades

[gritty cape]

It took me almost 4 hours to update. It's safe to play, you'll get a message in TARKOV saying you've upgraded

[quick moss]

lf someone who knows labs, pls help

[bronze oak]

@gritty cape thx

[gritty cape]

Of course

[quick moss]

@low knoll wait

[tribal rose]

Hello there. I'm trying to map the buttons so i can switch between scope aug. setting or tipes while ads

i think i've seen a few people do that, but for more than i try i can't seem to get it right. I'm trying to map it to richit click and my mouse side buttons

anyone know what might be going on?

[mental garnet]

im sry man idk, i just use the normal ones its on

question tho, is there a chat begginers could use to squad up and play together? been playin solo for a while

[vernal anchor]

#pvp-lfg

[mental garnet]

ty

[sour plume]

Do you need to restart the game for trader purchase unlocks to update, usually?

[ruby sedge]

sometimes yeah tj

[sour plume]

Cause I don't see the helmet in Skier's from chemical p4

Kk

[normal bear]

Someone said USEC is american

REEE

[ruby sedge]

United Security (USEC), is a private military company (PMC) and one of the main factions in Escape from Tarkov. USEC is employed by the notorious Terra Group international corporation, vigorously engages in armed clashes, hindering the investigation of Terra Group activities, carried on by local authorities. Moreover, according to intelligence agencies, USEC provides armed cover to illegal work and research of the foreign company.

doesnt say usa anywhere :p

[normal bear]

And by lore it was established by mergin two companies

One created by an american

The other by a brit

[ruby sedge]

the bear however

[normal bear]

Yes

[sour plume]

Generally when an organization starts with "US" the US stands for United States

[ruby sedge]

im pretty sure just says russian built company

[normal bear]

They are ruskee

They are literally specnaz

But rebranded

[ruby sedge]

yeah that was it

[errant snow]

Morning all

[ruby sedge]

Morning bud

[warm terrace]

Sup

[ruby sedge]

Hope tarkov goes better for ya today my man

[errant snow]

Last night was pretty good

Got out of Interchange 3 times, I'm back up to 110k and I got my first 2 dog tags

[ruby sedge]

hell yeah bud

get that cheddar

[errant snow]

Stopped hiding in corners and just sprinted to the tech shops instead, went much better

[ruby sedge]

yeah, depending on your spawn playing fast on interchange will do you well in the early game

then you can transition into a slower playstyle once youve got a good position

[errant snow]

True

I ran into the car park and got into a gunfight

Landed a lucky headshot, looted and peaced out lmao

[ruby sedge]

*skillful

[errant snow]

My second kill was skillful but I gotta admit the first one was pure luck

Second one I pretended to run up the escalators and he sprinted to me thinking I ran away and capped him as he turned the corner

[ruby sedge]

baited and outsmarted

[errant snow]

I totally didn't forget to pick up his modded ak

I was more excited about all the lightbulbs he had LOL

My hideout tho

[rapid minnow]

Why is my RPK mastery going up even though I never used/seen that weapon in my life?

[errant snow]

Because you're a...

Real Player Killer

[rapid minnow]

thanks

[ruby sedge]

oof

[errant snow]

I dunno why though, maybe some guns share the same stat?

[ruby sedge]

your right alleyna, all ak-74 varients share the same mastery

guess the rpk is included because mine is also the same

[errant snow]

Haven't had the balls to go into Oli yet properly

Stuck to the mall and car park so far

[rapid minnow]

can the workbench craft more than 1 thing at a time?

[errant snow]

Not sure

I need fuel for my gens though...

[rapid minnow]

I found fuel in Oli I think

one of the shelves

[errant snow]

...Bollocks

[strange mural]

Alleyna im glad to see success.

[errant snow]

Right, Alpha case I need you to carry my fuel lol

[rapid minnow]

I found it as a scav

[strange mural]

Tech stores are amazing!

[rapid minnow]

I found 2 fuels in 1 scav run but died to a player scav lol

feels bad

[errant snow]

Yeah Snu they are, I made so much from 2 trips in there, even escaped with a scoped Mosin

[strange mural]

Honestly try the oli shelves

[desert hull]

Can I just say it excites me to no end to see new players in this chat

[strange mural]

The most dangerous part is the back loading dock

Filled with a few scavs usually

Like outside

[errant snow]

Yeah I'm gonna pistol run in there for them, try to get one in my container at least

[desert hull]

What item are you after?

[errant snow]

The fuel for hideout gens

[desert hull]

The blue or grey can?

[errant snow]

Uh....I dunno, the one that fills the gen? I thought there was only 1 type

[desert hull]

There's a blue can and a big grey steel one

[rapid minnow]

blue can is the 60 fuel capacity and the grey one is 100 capacity

[desert hull]

This is one of those situations where it's easier to barter/trade for something rather than find it yourself

The grey can is only like 10-13k for a full one on the flea market

100 fuel

Blue can is like 50-60k because it's used in a crafting recipe

[errant snow]

Ahh okay

I'll push to level 5 then

1 more level to go, I'll probably go kill scavs on customs later to get that quest done

[strange mural]

Also pro tip near the registers theres a small cashiers booth in oli
That has two pcs which have banging loot for flea

[rapid minnow]

darn Im too scared to go factory and complete Delivery from the past

[strange mural]

Do it at night

[rapid minnow]

I finished the customs part of the quest

[strange mural]

Less ppl

[rapid minnow]

is it too early in the wipe for people to have night vision?

[strange mural]

People dont usually bother with night factory

But no people do have night vision

[rapid minnow]

ill have to put a flashlight on my Ak then

[ruby sedge]

first time i ever find a colored key card

its worth 35k

smh

[strange mural]

You need me with ya for the rng

[rapid minnow]

Last wipe I found a yellow keycard but sold it for 2.5 Million to therapist

[ruby sedge]

lol

i just found a yellow keycard

in a wallet

in marked room

[rapid minnow]

woah

[ruby sedge]

that bitch is going for 35k on the fm

[rapid minnow]

I have a marked key with 25 uses left

[errant snow]

Marked key?

[rapid minnow]

yes

opens marked room

[ruby sedge]

customs 3 story dorms

[rapid minnow]

on 3 story dorms

[ruby sedge]

has a room with FAT spawn rate

[rapid minnow]

Should I do night customs raids and rush marked room?

[ruby sedge]

picked up 2 weapons cases this wipe and 2 key bars

[rapid minnow]

yes I need a keytool badly

[ruby sedge]

tbh thats what everyone does on night customs

[strange mural]

Customs might have night players

[ruby sedge]

getting marked room is just spawn dependant nitrous

[rapid minnow]

hmm

[ruby sedge]

there 2 spawns that are competetive with getting it and out before anyone else

right before the holes in the wall going into the forest behind 2 story

[errant snow]

Sounds like marked room is a group effort

[ruby sedge]

and the spawn on the other side of the train tracks by junk bridge

[errant snow]

Solo sounds suicidal

[ruby sedge]

i just run it solo

[rapid minnow]

I have never played factory for a few months, how am I gonna complete this quest lol

[ruby sedge]

jjust ran it out with a dvl vss and that keycard

[errant snow]

You brave man

I'm too scared to even go near dorms

[ruby sedge]

ive played like 500 customs raids :p

[strange mural]

Dorms is painful

[rapid minnow]

I ran into 2 story dorms, luckily I was first there, then I looted the file cabinets

[ruby sedge]

down for a run in 5 mins snutri?

[strange mural]

Nah im away

[desert hull]

@rapid minnow rushing dorms hasn't been a thing for a while

[rapid minnow]

why not

[upper sky]

people still do it all the time for marked room

[desert hull]

Cause if you do it without gear or impatiently you just might run straight into Rashala

[ruby sedge]

keyword might

[desert hull]

And marked's loot isn't unique anymore

[rapid minnow]

oooh

[errant snow]

Rashala?

Boss?

[strange mural]

That sounds like kiba rushing

[desert hull]

Yes

[strange mural]

Lmao

[rapid minnow]

rashala spawns in which dorms ?

2 story?

[desert hull]

Both

[ruby sedge]

both sides

[rapid minnow]

oh

[desert hull]

And gas station

[ruby sedge]

and gas station

jynx

jinx

[rapid minnow]

I just prya he is at gas station

[desert hull]

It's him and 4 body guards

All 5 armed to the teeth

[rapid minnow]

What helmet does rashala have>?

[desert hull]

Grenades, modded AKs, class 4-5 armor

Rashala himself doesn't wear armor

But his guards wear Gzhkel and Altnys

[ruby sedge]

which is why you dont run marked room as a pistolling

also because thats lame

[errant snow]

I thought dealmaker was the boss?

[rapid minnow]

I take AK, C4 armour and steel pot helmet as my loadout

[desert hull]

Dealmaker was his old name

He's still called that

But Rashala is his real name

[errant snow]

Oh

[rapid minnow]

he killed me and it says Rashala

[desert hull]

Rashala will camp inside a room

And make zero noise until you pass by

[errant snow]

Rashala gonna Dieala one day

[desert hull]

His guards patrol the dorm he's in

[ruby sedge]

as long as you dont just walk full into the doorframe of any door

and peek it quickly he wont just fuck you up

[desert hull]

He drops bit coins, the golden TT, a modded AK

[frank beacon]

Rashala a bitch

[ruby sedge]

agreed

[desert hull]

Before I got off yesterday I killed him

[rapid minnow]

Loot his pockets first right?

[ruby sedge]

weak ass fool

[errant snow]

Nade the fucker

[desert hull]

Still haven't sorted the loot

Gonna be big money

[rapid minnow]

I cant afford nades lol

[desert hull]

Got 3 helmets

[frank beacon]

Mf lets his guards get killed while he hides

[errant snow]

Gonna be my plan for bosses, just nade the bastards

[desert hull]

@rapid minnow if you manage to kill one of his guards they have nades :)

[strange mural]

Bosses

[rapid minnow]

AI can use nades?

[desert hull]

Yes

[rapid minnow]

oh no

[errant snow]

Yeah

I already got flashbanged by one

[desert hull]

Wait till a regular ass scav flashbangs you

Regular scavs can throw frags too

[ruby sedge]

The flashbangers are the rough ones

I've never personally been frag killed by one

[upper sky]

oh yes

[ruby sedge]

But my friends have haha

[errant snow]

I'm dreading the day claymores get added 🚙

[desert hull]

Reshala guards will 100% frag you though

[strange mural]

I have yet to be hit with any nade

[desert hull]

That's how they open the fight

So if you think it's them run for cover

Cause they don't miss their throws

[ruby sedge]

Meh, best way I've found killing him is just pushing them

[desert hull]

Just push in CQB and hipfire

[ruby sedge]

Scav boss ai never shoots first with good reaction time

And just stunlock em eith full auto

[desert hull]

Killa is the one you need to worry about

[ruby sedge]

Agreed

[desert hull]

Cause he wears class 5-6 armor with an LMG

[ruby sedge]

He just doesn't give a shit, and his ai feels better

[desert hull]

And the trick is he doesn't make any fucking noise

And waits to ambush you

[errant snow]

Can you leg cheese bosses?

[desert hull]

Yes

[strange mural]

Killa is a tuff boy.

[desert hull]

But bosses have double health

So it takes way longer to cheese

[errant snow]

Sorry Killa, your legs are mine later

[strange mural]

Me and alp tried to hunt him but killa is hard.

[desert hull]

You say that

[strange mural]

And people huntinh him are even harder

[desert hull]

Wait until Killa frags you then rushes you with an Lmg

Right after the explosion

[ruby sedge]

You can still 1 tap him with snb mosin I'm pretty sure

[errant snow]

I killed Killa in offline mode with a unmodded sks

[strange mural]

Yes bm

Back of the head is t4

[desert hull]

Well the entire helmet is T4

[ruby sedge]

Snb pens 6

[desert hull]

The mask part is T6

[rapid minnow]

I have a SV98 scav im too scared to use

[strange mural]

Ah

Yeee

[rapid minnow]

the rifle has no scope

[desert hull]

Just buy one

They cheap enough

[ruby sedge]

Sv98 is only 30k btw nitrous

[rapid minnow]

wtf so cheap?

[desert hull]

Ye SV98 ain't something to worry about

[ruby sedge]

And with the trigger delay it's an terrible weapon imo

[strange mural]

Just do it

[rapid minnow]

I thought it was like a premium sniper rifle

[desert hull]

Its pretty common in all honesty and it's one of the lesser snipers

[sour plume]

Okay so the helmet that you unlock at Skier for doing chemical p4 isn't there at all, do you need him at lvl 4 for it?

[desert hull]

Because it's one of the oldest guns in the game

[rapid minnow]

hmm

[desert hull]

Has a lot of older jank problems

[errant snow]

30k is a shit ton of money for me

[desert hull]

Still perfectly usable

[ruby sedge]

Can't remember if its 3 or 4

[rapid minnow]

Ok im going factory and trying to finish the Prapor quest

delivery from the past

[errant snow]

GL nitro

[rapid minnow]

wish me luck

thanks!

[ruby sedge]

Gl bud

[desert hull]

@rapid minnow just camp somewhere for a bit

[errant snow]

Take this cat

[rapid minnow]

Wait for the timer to end?

[desert hull]

Wait until some PMCs die

Nah

Just a bit

[rapid minnow]

thats not a bad idea

[desert hull]

Then slow push the scaffold

[ruby sedge]

I'd say give it like 5 mins

[desert hull]

Don't just go straight there

[ruby sedge]

Or after a shitload of gunfire

Then while they are busy yeet it up

[rapid minnow]

What happens if I get the red blinking light spawn?

[desert hull]

Undergroun

[ruby sedge]

Underground? Hang a Larry and head up

[desert hull]

?

Yeah just rush out

But find somewhere safe fast

Just a random corner will do

Shit you can even camp red blinking light

[rapid minnow]

I feel claustrophobic in factory

[desert hull]

Most people don't rush that spawn anymore

[rapid minnow]

hmm

Im wearing class 4 armour so I think ill have a bit of confidence

[desert hull]

Remember the golden rule

If the target has spotted you

Cover before return fire

[rapid minnow]

ye

[desert hull]

Unless you are absolutely in the open

And cover isn't within 3 seconds

[ruby sedge]

Give them the finger and shout dicky needles?

[desert hull]

Too many noobs think you should return fire

[rapid minnow]

if im in the open then just dropshot him I guess

[desert hull]

And get into an aim duel

[strange mural]

Tbh a lot of the rules of engagement are accurate in this game

[desert hull]

Ye dropshot is probably best in the open

[errant snow]

I stopped trying to engage in aim duels

[rapid minnow]

ok im starting

[errant snow]

Now I try to move somewhere else and flank if I can

GL!!

[rapid minnow]

Bravo 6 going dark until the raid is over

[ruby sedge]

the three r's

retreat

reposition

return fire

[desert hull]

I wonder if he knows he doesn't have to survive

Just plant the thing

[errant snow]

That's what my friend with his tasks

[wind niche]

Yo how long is this issue going to last for ?

The purchase one *

[errant snow]

He goes 1 nade in his box and does he plant

Then suicides

[desert hull]

Why tho

[errant snow]

He says it saves time

[ruby sedge]

lol

[desert hull]

The exit is literally feet from the plant

[ruby sedge]

the extract is 10 feet

[errant snow]

When he's just questing

[desert hull]

And nades are 10k

[ruby sedge]

from that

[errant snow]

LMAO

I should tell him that

[desert hull]

At least for that specific task it is

[errant snow]

He thinks quicker is better

[ruby sedge]

yeah

[desert hull]

Some tasks do require you to extract

Fair warning

[ruby sedge]

also some quests are survive and extract

[desert hull]

It won't make you do that part again

[errant snow]

Oh God

[ruby sedge]

and they require a non-runthrough

[errant snow]

Big F for everyone who died at the end

[desert hull]

It'll just make you play the map again and extract properly

[errant snow]

Do keys come back if you have it in the container?

[ruby sedge]

you dont lose anything in your container

including keys

[desert hull]

Anything in container is saved

[errant snow]

Sweet

[desert hull]

Besides cash in wallets

Those are bugged

[errant snow]

Gonna go get the bronze pocket watch later too

I have a key for it

[ruby sedge]

first goal should be a documents case @errant snow

[desert hull]

Ye docs case is important

[ruby sedge]

not too expensive and its a cheap way to hold all your keys

[desert hull]

Cheap for an item too

[errant snow]

How do you get that---

[desert hull]

Like 200k

[errant snow]

Oh

200K LMAOP

That's so pricey for me xd

[desert hull]

Once you play for a bit

200k is half a raids loot

[strange mural]

Its pretty cheap once you unlock flea

[ruby sedge]

thats just 1 extract

[robust jackal]

That's the first case i bought

[ruby sedge]

with a decent raid

[strange mural]

The whole game changes after flea

[robust jackal]

200k is like one interchange run

[desert hull]

Then after that probably lucky scav junkbox

That's a cool 1.05m though

[errant snow]

My highest lootout is 40k from interchange lol

I get some things and bug out asap

[desert hull]

You'll learn where loot is

[robust jackal]

Just having all my keys with me at all times is great

[desert hull]

My average loot from inter is like 400k

[strange mural]

Everything is pretty worthless before flea

[desert hull]

My friend averages 800k

[strange mural]

Jesus

Thats gotta be some player loots though

[desert hull]

No

[errant snow]

My nerves get to me when I pick up things and I make it priority to leave while I can

[desert hull]

Just knows where shit spawns and goes to it

[ruby sedge]

i know where 90% of the loot is on interchange

[desert hull]

Yeah surviving before greed is important @errant snow

[ruby sedge]

unless hes getting reaaaly lucky on rare spawns

[desert hull]

It's good you want to leave

[ruby sedge]

thats highly unlikely

[desert hull]

Instead of being greedy and going for everything

[errant snow]

I loot Techno and the one...under it?

[snow kite]

400k on inter is average... player loot goes sometimes up to 600-800k without selling the good guns

[errant snow]

Then I gtfo

[desert hull]

@ruby sedge you can ask him later

[strange mural]

Techolight and texho yes

I do recommend doing oli too

[frank beacon]

interchange be like
oh nice i got two graphics cards and killed a player

walking down hallway and gets shot by some dude in the dark

[strange mural]

Lot of hideout shit

[errant snow]

[rapid minnow]

I died

lol

[errant snow]

why does ur game look weird
