idk
they are abt 8-12 k
does fence ever sell the really rare shit
fence sells what players sell to him
oh thats cool
so its completly random for the most part and very over priced
Yea don't buy shit from Fence
nah
his pay yo you when selling is bad too
Never sell to him (except knives)
Even dead armor can usually be sold on Flea...Unless it's a dead Paca or something then just sell it to fence
its ok to do lol but pretty rare to actually get the crazy deal
people buy dead killa armor and gen4s
Hello @everyone new to EFT, anyone want to party up and walk me through the game a bit 😄
lol even if you could why would you @ everyone
@everyone doesnt do anytthing
Why ping all
Stop the ping
imagine if that was on lmao
#news-setup and #521628660298678283 @mossy kite
Lmao
ask like 40k people if they can sherpa you
killa armor ❤️ best repairing rating for the cost
the lucky scav junkbox helped so much with my stash though jeez
Because of Hideouts I had 2 Lucky junk box this wipe
i know its amazing for the cost but it has no protection on your sides their wide open which is a bummer
There are 2 schools of thought for tasks/hideout
I'm of the school where I start picking up task/hideout items day 1 so I can just turn them in when I get the task
anyone having issues with the EOD upgrade past 24hrs?
the system is slammed give it time
Others wait til they get the task but my superstition side says that the game knows you need them now so the RNG Jeebus tells you to suck it.
It's damn nice when someone says Hey give me 4 propane and 5 ear flaps hats and I just turn them in
fosho thanks @barren current ive just been waiting for 2 days now and no message from the trader
contact bsg direct then if you only didint get the case...but i have heard a lot abt this on the forum lately....maybe check there too see what others have said
Slime ball click the letter by the purchase on your account page
@barren current yea i haven't gotten the case even tho in the launcher it stated i have EOD
tank battery or docs case.....go
is docs case insured
@zenith drift Restart launcher and game then check messages, got mine almost instantly
ok ill give that a try @rotund falcon
lol nothing is just something to give away later as a part of other items
yea im passed 24hrs doing that over and over but ima just keep waiting on a response from the support i guess thanks tho @dense hinge
I received mine through an in game message, Is your stash bigger yet? @zenith drift
does flea market take a fee?
yes
how much?
taken only if sold right?
no
no, taken if put on flea
no my stash is still standard sadly @dense hinge
if i select a server with the longest matching time of my region, will i be able to avoid pmc-s?
or howw does it work
@strange mural if we lucky we get some stuff back through insurance XD
Probably more likely to have a dead server at that point. I just choose the top 5 lowest ping
I just keep dying to like teams of 3
im poor right now so tryna make some money
just askin if the servers matter
Idk Karl
Quest item
always gotta believe in my fullymodded ak coming back from insurance.
Keep it
aight
anyone wanna help me through the first few quests?
ak74m any good?
well if you mod it it is
i think i just spend 300k on weapons again
fuck.
what doyou guys do to get the most bang out of your weapon mod bucks
what?
I don't go full tits weapon each raid
7.62 something
There are times I'll just run a Hunter with a PSO
what ammo does ak-74m use
5.45
5.45x39
Don't have to go fully modded every raid
Guys look up shit on the wiki
can u link wiki?
@strange mural i dont understand your question
I think #sherpa-info has it
what do you do first
Not die
well you think about what you want to mod it for
als
als?
modded a akm to the max recoil i could realistically and its still fuck all recoil

weapon modding hard
I mod my weapons for wya too much and spend way too long on them
the recoil just
wont go down
i know i could use a better grip but

thatd make it go down a bit
hey guys lfg custom 5 2 beginners looking for help 🙂
also suppressor to compressor is massive increase
ya rk-2 best grip
A few days ago someone sent me the meta akm
Since they took out the TT 10000 I've been using the Akademia Bastion Dust cover on my AK's
Lemme see if I can find it

Wait the TT 10000 is gone?
what do spare mags do? do u need them?
more ammo
?
i dont understand
where do i find guns
Just use thr cheap tula mount
Tt10k is loot only
Learn how to take screen shots
pog ss
Anyone help me and friend get the grips of the game ?
snipping tool
we keep dying etc.
what do spare mags do? do u need them?
uh
Yes
so u dont run out of ammo
google the wiki
@strange mural just get a optics for each raid
does reserve have the lost loot barring labs
FUCKING HELL GUYS LOON AT THE FUCKJNG WIKI
Doesn't cost much and you will benefit a lot
You see @strange mural just tape knife to stock and you will be stronger than recoil in fear of stabbing self yes?
U dont find guns you buy guns
Reserve or interchange
reserve has a ton of loot
ahoi iam a noob
yeah on reserve you have the americano scavs
2 marked rooms
Also I’m fuckjng sorry I didn’t have time to screen shot that gun before I lost it
Interchange is so much more calm
@vague wind you will shoot the accurate
Until you run into shroud interchange is calm
unless cheeki breeki killa comes and splits your ass
🤡
reserve is quiet at night you can pull a easy 500k with a pistol

@strange mural idk the parts off the top of my head but that’s the meta akm for recoil
who sells .366 TKM Geksa?
Skier
Why are you using .366
Just explore the traders to find out who sells what
It's the worst penetration
ive only got the AKM/VPO
Use the 7.62 vepr
Middle click with mouse button to inspect
you've got the 209
Sell it and buy a veprkm for 15k on market
use the 136
And sell the .366 vepr
sell it lol better off going for a hatchet kill
Had a moddes Vepr Km so gooood.
The gun is so bad
i havnt got to level 5 yet to buy stuff of market
Veprkm-136 is pogu
Veprkm vpo136
is PRS better than T ammo
@barren current wanna run reserves
All 545 ammo is trash
Unless 545 BS
Ammo chart
who sells Vepr KM?
The fleamarket
sure pm me so it aint on here being called out for looking for a group when its looking to learn a map lol
7.62 is the way to go
@gloomy heart market. The trader sells too much
if you want ammo / guns you need to get level 5 to use the flea market
it doesnt take long
scav run to lvl 5?
anything run to level 5 lol
Scav doesn't earn exp for pmc
^
ahh
Scav has separate xp gain
You can however extract as soon you spawn
And Ta-da
Dude just examining everything in the handbook gets you lvl 3
You got a gun
handbook?
god people really need to do their own fucking research
and fence's inventory
inventory?
examining fence and handbook got me to 4 myself
Literally just play the game

fence is a trader that sells a very random selection of stuff
This chat makes me want to kms
you could join a different channel
theres a clue in the channel name
SBH it looks like you're in the wrong channel lol
also this counts as "doing your own research" its just using other people as a source
anyone wanna play
Im new to EFT but i know my way around anyone wants to play for a bit?
lfg is full of cucks
true
zero you need to get your roles and then sure
@bold kernel #521628660298678283 #news-setup then #sherpa-info
ok
a man with the links, thats what im talkin about
lol
On the reserve map, is the only extraction for PMCs the one where you have to pull the lever? I want to try and keep my backpack so I don't want to use the sewer exit.
Train
^
the one with the red robin
ok now what?
your name needs to be blue
Unless you got paracord and friendly scav
@bold kernel you arent hitting check mark in #521628660298678283
Oh right. I've been scared to do train. Is it chaos? If I read correctly I have to wait on the train for 5 minutes and try not to die is that right?
holy hell one of the customs boss scav guards blew me away through a window in a single shot
3 more damn kills and I'm done with Punisher 6. I don't want to use an SVD for awhile.
Ah okay I'll give it a try.
good thing i only went in there with a TT hah
It is...just need a break from her after Punisher part 6
Hey guys I got the game last night but I didn’t expect the sounds to be this good to the point I can’t fight for myself for nothin. Any tips on overcoming my fear?😩 no not gear fear by the way
I clicked on everything already rules and the set up
@waxen forge
Did you try uncheck and recheck
Yes.
@dusky hazel do mod things plox
I suppose.. I’ll give it a few more days then
Ok maybe @neat grove



😘
Anyone interested in grouping up for my first ever tarkov raid, lol help me out with my first tasks in customs? would do voice chat
ok thanks
Before losing all your crap
Lmao hes new
im beyond new lol
Hes going to lose all his shit if he doesnt learn basic mechanics
i personally think the pistols are dog shit in this game
do scav.
^
scav is free money
^
apart from the fs
Just buy and loot veprkms
A better pistol
@lone pebble also walk around maps in offline mode
You lose no kit. And can turn scavs on and off
if you want to get better at gunplay i play horde on factory that helped a lot
ive done a few offline custom walks
Helps you learn extractions
still get lost lol but itll come with time and practice im sure
Learning extraction is the important part
Turn on scavs to see where they typically spawn
Then play online to start questing and involing pmcs
Scav is free kit so you can learn any map with them
Can play as ballsy as you want
Unless you want to keep something
do pcbs spawn in computers
What?
do pcbs spawn in computers
The fuck is a pcbs
printed circuit board
"p"rinted "c"ircuit "b"oards
Lmao nobody calls it that
yeah they do
Ok kid
mate if you are going to resort to name calling literally use google
gonna have to agree that if you're actually fabricating computer parts they call them pcbs
Man hypocrite cause you could of googled your answer to wiki
!wiki printed circuit board
where on this page does it say where they spawn
because i did check, and then it wasn't there so i asked here
!wiki pc block
kinda a strech
Printed circuit board Electronics 10% Rare
I got sniped from some fucking scav with my good gear
i need some quick help
Couldn't even fucking find him and apparently had every angle to every cover
Yes @narrow belfry
Early but yes
thanks budracin
One is 6am and other 6pm
so we should do 6 because 17 is nearing night?
17:00 is 5 pm
so 6 am
It's about the same really
ok
19 is sundown
Any Sherpas on able too help?
anyone has a fun vepr loadout?
This vepr?
Swap the handguard with ak100 handguard and slap a grip. Add a gp-25 pad if you want. Good to go.
What is the offline mode?
Like, does the items that I get there transfer to my inventory?
Its offline. And you can choose to spawn scavs or not and you lose no ammo or item on death
It reverts to original stash
@zealous forge wich map ?
Offline mode is purely for practice
Learn the map, looting spots, advantageous areas to be in, plan fastest route to x destination
I had 200,000 but when I upgraded to the best pack my money only went to 300,000 when it should go to 400k? someone help
what ammo do you use with that delta?
Think you only get the 100k difference @obsidian merlin
^^^^^
wait why
Rofl
it said you get 400k though
Yep
You get 3k usd
heyo. whats the button to organize stuff on the stash by changing an item from vertical to horizontal.
R
^
You have to be "holding" it
R while dragging
is it not possible to use BP ammo with the vepr?
ty
Sherpas where art thou
@marble latch wich vepr you using?
is the server down
akm/vpo 209
That's .366
oh, there are more of them?
Wrong vepr bud
lol
Not the 7.62
Veprkm is 762x39
lmfao, okay
Akm vepr is .366
Aka trash
Theres vepr hunter too
Which is much more op
Cause 762 x51 m80 clap ass cheeks
Veprkm is 15k on market
what do you do if your loot doesnt show up after scav run?
Did you extract sucessfully? @blazing geode
yeah
in the screen where you move loot to your main char I only have the loot i spawned with
Silver suggests it
Either that or not
Yep
I remember
Does scav ai kills count to your K/D?
Or only scav players and pmc's?
What do those acronyms even mean
I am running low on guns and money
same
@robust jackal they both count as long as you were playing as pmc. scav runs arent tracked
@blazing geode move a weapon to your "back" slot then press back and go back in
Anyone wanna do some interchange
lmao

i saw that
such small magazines
blasphemous
Why can’t toz be orbital strike
mhhh
me @strange mural just made abt 800k on reserve with min contact

iam now at customs at the trailer park for extration but it wont extract me 😦
double tap I
Money making isnt hard
O*
double tap o to see your available extracts
How good the 5-7 against armor?
Sometimes the counter doesn't show up. Just stay in the area
@azure arrow the trailer park extract is in the woody area where the corner wall is and the card are
Cars are
No shotgun shells are going in my gun
it keeps only putting one in
and then I cant put anymore in
5-7 tiny boolet
Goes fast
Irl would be decent against armor
No idea about ingame
OH
Or sks
My skav has a silenced ak

😩👌
well is the trailer park timed?
Hi im new to Tarkov and from germany. Does someone wanna play with me? Im Newb 😄
No
@wild slate pm me
!wiki customs
@barren current are u from germany?
no
No problem
Ping is not really a problem
thx but would prever someone from germany, its more easy for me to talk in native language
@azure arrow do you see the 2
Unless above 200
That's extract for trailer
Cuz you might get DC
ah it was in the corner
yes thx XD
#toogoodforme

Dat's tharkov
I'm right about my gear fear
Died so much to scavs first 3-4 days
no gear fear.....rsass with paca for the win
Don't have gear fear Dayz is 10x worse to you when u die
I was checking corners and everything
Heard him
Peaked and shot him then he took his shotgun and blasted my face off as I saw him fall
Yes shotgun scavs op
sports bags in raid often have food and hydro
Cause spread reaches face
looking for group and specify
thx
I want krauts only
i want souls
I always survive scav shots to the face with shotguns with like 10 health when wearing helmets
Happened twice in a row few days ago in woods
I just cant extract, even in offline
still kinda new to the game anyone wanna do a scav run in shoreline
is the game matching you until it finds players?
@echo geode You die?
Check the wiki
Use maps
Look at the maps on wiki fam
And double tap o
They literally show you
^
Wich map u playin?
I've played woods, interchange and customs
stick to one map
!wiki woods
and learn it
I liked more customs
only move to the next one when you comfortable with one
than Woods
That's what lack of armor will do anywhere
Do I really have to heal my PMV everytime he dies
Yuppp
Is there a more efficient way
Implemented with this new patch
To combat hatches
You can upgrade shit in hideout for better regeneration
Play a scav when you die
I just buy a shit ton of cars from therapist and hit heal all
But I die to fast to do that all the time
Till you get better that will be the case 🤷
Seems like I just wont have any money either
Hire a sherpa to guide you
Sherpa?
Guys is there a limited time interval where scav players can spawn in on a raid? Lets say there is 10 mins left of a 45 min raid. Will player scavs be able to spawn in?

When starting, which one is better, playing as scav until I get armor and guns or buy them from the traders?
should i be focusing on doing tasks?
cuz so far all ive been doing is spawning in and lootings shit
lol
whats a cost effective food to buy in flea?
ya I scav whenever its up
Tarkov isn't expected to be easy
It's hardcore. How you do at other shooters doesn't mean anything here

I honestly don't worry too much about food
electricblue can we hop in a trio? i need help actually making profit
ima be honest it was hard the first couple hours
but past that its not to hard
so far at least
I eat it when I find it in raid and drink when I find it
Exactly
But everyone new comes in expecting something else
Don't want to google shit
ok
and what should i upgrade first in the hideout
Teach a man to fish kinda thing
i got everything level 1 atm

This game is just overwhelming
always bring some form of liquid because it is the worst thing when you notice that your water/energy is just at 6 when you are no were near your extract
@wicked goblet that's how it be
so it seems like my bullets dont count against other players
It just seems like it's pointlessly difficult
@azure arrow Ammo changes weather you piss on an enemy or turn him into swiss cheese
meh
No.
no
You just dont know what to use
Difficult doesn't make it pointless. You just have to apply yourself more. Not for the participation trophy crowd
Mosin, sv98, vepr hunter, m700, sa58 are all cheap guns that have assceible ammo that destroys playets
i used a mosin
Interchange scav run. Don't look for a fight. Avoid fights. Loot PC and tech stores. Get out. Sell it all
Do it again in 20 minutes
^
I bet your cheap is different then a brand new players cheap
Nope they are cheap
Then after a few turns you will have $
Meta guns are 150k-300k
Scav run is FREE
Mosin is 20-30k
Gotta wait my 20 minutes
Run an offline run while waiting your 20
Boom. You practiced a map and fighting and then scav ready again
Map knowledge is best knowledge
This is not a Jump in and win game
^
well but if i achieved severel hits with a mosin that guy should get down
And I have played eve online
hahaha
Oh shit
never said it
Get Gud in a beginner's channel
runing interchange for money and gear for 2 days, i know that map by heart now
Solid
Literally once you learnt he game
This is actually easier than Nikita intends.
It's a cake walk
He has ideas to make it more difficult
^
sure once i get top gear i can milk new players
Even with Top gear you will still die plenty
still how do you do a profit with dieing every round
Putting shit in your prison wallet
and have to buy a gun for every new round
Im like really new to this game
Because when I need MONEY I go to interchange and DON"T try to fight. Just loot. Avoid...loot more. Sell it
can somebody explain what is going on
You loot cheap guns like veprkm
Get good donvevo
so i just spawn naked now run around and farm with that container
No
ok
You have to learn on your own
do u just upgrade whatever in hideout?
So use the wiki
I still learned plenty by experience
I used it for quests and extracts
That's it
hey fellas. I just went to the exfil site and waiting for the countdown but im still here
after it reaches 0
i just bought a grizzly on flea to heal me outside raids
its a confirmed exfil. its roadblock on customs
I get the countdown "wait until exfil"
!wiki customs
so im in the spot
Do you have to heal your pmc after an offline thing?
Ruad roadblock
ANYTHING
I figured it would
Offline mode?
no im killing players.
Its glitched or diesnt work
i did it 3 times
Go to trailer park
It's a time extract
Doesnt always work
Its buggef
I always use trailer park/crossroad
Notated by 1 and 2
lmao well im gonna lose everything my leg is broken and the exfil I went doesnt even work. rip
Welcome to tarkov
i keep atleast a full pack of painkillers in my alpha
^
eh I mean if I got punished and died for it sure but if the game itself is broke what can ya do.
VERY useful for extracting after enar death
Buy an Ibuprofen from flea. Keep in in gamma/alpah
Meds in container 👌
should i ask question here or in general chat?
You can ask a question in either this chat or #eft-chat
You'll probably get more helpful responses here
damn got shot down in customs,ah well let's go again
just keep on truckin
no one answering my question lol
so i thought my question is not beginner anymore
Do I get leave plenty from leaving an offline game?
thats all ill say
they should probably patch out exfil sites that dont work then.
Even if I use ammo in offline I will get it back once I exit?
also defkon yes just upgrade what you want/need
yes nothing is lost in offline
or gained
no. That was a guaranteed extract site. It just didnt let me load out. @strange mural
The hideout, @fathom narwhal upgrade what you want dude, i have zero issues not upgrading it at all. its a 15mil money drop to max it
did you check your exfils?
not in my interest, so you do you
double tap o
ye.
was ita ???
cool cool thanks
V dorms was locked so I went to roadblock and it just did let me out after the countdown.
unfortunate
@fierce sundial that is not a guranteed extract
its a timed extract
or one time use
roadblock is?
v dorms_
yes
Should i play tarkov drunk
well then it makes sense
If there's ?????? In the extract then u dunno for sure if it's open
i literally said that
Let's drink
trailers park/crossroads are permanent extracts
and zb11 if you spawn trailer/crossroads side
the rest are up in the air
conditional
how do i stop being so shit lol
Plaey and die more
you are supposed to scav when it's avalaible and till you get comfortable
got it
Whats the best TT bullet
Don't go into PMC with too many valuables
Only way to get gud is to play a lot
Why use a tt
Insure everything
When you can use a god damn ak74
Go in with a pistol, get out with more
so how are the 4.6x30 mp7s
or well their ammo
looks pretty concerning honestly
@strange mural can you tell electric blue i wanna play with him?
veprkm cost 15k
Small bullet
and is better pistol
Just play PMC with stuff you can afford to lose
Kodak?
Otherwise go naked or scav
how do I know if I should sell weapon mods on the flea market or to a trader?
Is bullet pen realistic in tarkov
shitty cheap ones to traders
who the fuck slow walks on factory
yes.
no @faint violet
then mp7 has great pen
just saw a guy doing that to go across one tapped his head
the pen is not realistic to irl
why
they are all balanced how nikita wants it
well the armors that are considered late game are
cause then certain shit would be stupid op
That’s ass
incredibly thicc
they have RELATIVE dmg/pen values
and defeat dummy thicc armor with it
Until you get your Money "Spent" requirement up with traders try to sell and buy from them unless the flea vs. trader price is significantly different including posting tax
Yeah slugs are dummy underpowered compared to irl, which makes sense tbh cause they’d legit knock the wind out of or incapacitate everyone they hit even if it wasn’t a kill or penetration
Which would be op asf
Just delete their stamina if it hits com
everything is subject to change
Yeah it’s still beta
they have not implemented enough to replicate irl
Game is in a very good state rn, but they have a lot of plans to make it even better before release
^^^^^
is there a roadmap?
roadmap...?
for what they have planned
no
More new maps, weapon maintenance aspect that actually matters. Lots of stuff.
I’m pretty sure I heard more accurate armor hitboxes were coming up, like the plates being the only armored part and what not, rather than the entire segment of the body being protected
They tease stuff all the time
Yea that haven't announced the 2020 roadmap
"spoilers" in a game with almost no story telling? lol
Till they release a m107 idc
B E T A
B E T A A A
they are going to be releasing new guns, attachments, maps, and equipment along with fixing bugs and overall working on the stability of the game, thats what they have been doing though
Legit when you boot up the game in a giant orange rectangle, it says it doesn’t represent the final product and is a beta version
obviously
Now that they’re in unity I would imagine development progress will be a lot faster as well
its still a very trashy engine
^
but they cant port to something better
its a mircale that this game is what it is
No you’re a miracle
this is cute

I don’t speak Italian dumbass
its preference bro
i love being new to this game, but my question is, why is it when i try my best to do good and use good guns i die in 5 min, but when i run around with a shovel i get so much loot that i cant keep it all
im sorry did you say preference?
preference
Maybe you play less aggressive with worse gear?
It’s just preference

‘Our’ loot comrade
you like -5 ergo vs 35? you like 5 round internal vs 10 rd magazine? you like no rail available for optics for rail available when ever? you like expensive more than cheap?
i feel you @marsh onyx whenever i use SCAV i get great loot but on my main i die instantly
It’s only your loot till someone else takes it off your body
tarkov gods say your playing too fast if you cant run a gun with no armor
preference
@vocal gazelle i got it last night and people said it was consfusing, but i didnt think it was so whack
WTF is this
@marsh onyx you just have to take your time learning the game tbh you have to be extremely patient with this game
others are getting the same error, including me
game servers are down right now
daily taking shit
nah just recently
i got no issues
@vocal gazelle i guess its different since i dont know anyone or how anythig works, especially since i was a scav and another scav started to shoot at me so that was interesting to say the least
servers are dying give them a sec
