steady pilot
#

M856a1

lofty vortex

Its just a personal preference for me, not a fan of using tracer ammo

brazen owl
#

Will buy M856A1

steady pilot
#

Nobody is

brazen owl
#

Nvm, no one selling it for me

steady pilot
#

Its just the next best round

brazen owl
#

#

brazen owl
#

sitting in "Awaiting Session Start" for 30min now... is this expected with new players/server loads?

steady pilot
strange mural
#

Reque

brazen owl
#

About the Factory key on customs, the wiki says it has 3 places to be found, on the Dormitories, on the building near ZB-1011 and near Old Gas Station

#

Is it guaranteed I'll find it on these 3 places?

strange mural
#

Dont sit in a dead screen bruv

steady pilot
#

@upper sky you should have backed put or resetted 25 mins ago

lofty vortex
#

Last time that happened to me restarting my game helped

strange mural
#

Nothing is guaranteed

upper sky
#

@steady pilot there's no Back button any more. it's just a SCAV run so do i need to restart the game?

steady pilot
#

Yes?

brazen owl
#

But they always spawn there?

#

Or its a chance?

steady pilot
#

Why would you sit there for 30mins

#

That's some patience

upper sky
#

eh... i'm kinda spacey from a weekend partying anyways

#

so i'm not in a rush or anything

steady pilot
steel dragon
#

I wanna play some Tarkov but noone wants it

shut mirage
#

Can anybody help me with the game? i understand the basics but its really hard for me to play in solo

steady pilot
steel dragon
#

I know a tad bit about the game, but solo for sure sucks

shut mirage
#

yea it really does

steady pilot
#

Request a sherpa

shut mirage
#

ok

steel dragon
#

The hells a sherpa

steady pilot
#

Read

steel dragon
#

Oh

upper sky
#

i play only solo

#

don't try to play like a streamer

steady pilot
#

Solo is best way to learn things

#

Squads is for fuckin around

#

Duo is best tho

lofty vortex
#

Im inclined to agree, playing squad I just kinds follow the more experienced guy

steel dragon
#

Yuh, I wanna do Duo's

#

Squads is when you're goin try hard

steady pilot
#

P much

steel dragon
#

Get that large $$$

steady pilot
#

Hard to to try hard when you dont know shit

#

Kinda drags squad down

#

Duo is ok

steel dragon
#

Yeah, I just wanna duo with another novice player

steady pilot
#

Not the worst idea. But requesting a sherpa to guide you is the best idea

#

Good way to make a friend on the latter though

steel dragon
#

I don't need a knowledge daddy, I just wanna play with someone

steady pilot
#

Fair

steel dragon
#

I wanna learn by myself for the most part

steady pilot
#

Tbh

steel dragon
#

I'm tryin

steady pilot
#

Good luck

@atomic sequoia foxtrot

#

strange mural
#

@steady pilot do you ever run m61 on the fal btw

#

Or do you stick to budget

#

M80 is hella good already

steady pilot
#

Nah m80 best overall round

strange mural
#

Yeee m61 has much less dmg ye

steady pilot
#

One tap potential and doesnt struggle too hard

#

And cheap

strange mural
#

Yep

#

Mfw 4mags of ammo doesnt cost me 50j

#

50k*

steady pilot
#

Nobody runs good armor typically and it drops them with a few follow ups if does tank it

strange mural
#

Yeh i got into a gunfight with a full gear player

steady pilot
#

If you can gurantee head shots or double chest shots then run m61

strange mural
#

Shot him twice in the chest, destroyed chestplate and then headshot

steady pilot
#

Guranteed kill then

strange mural
#

Missed my headshot again. Even though im running hamr

#

Do you know what reticle change does on hamr btw?

#

I havent noticed anything but it switches something

steady pilot
#

There is no reticle change

#

You can put a delta point reflex on top

#

That's it

strange mural
#

Also what is the delta point?

#

Change of reticle

#

It costs like 10k

steady pilot
#

What

#

You put it on top of the sfope

#

As a back up collimiter

strange mural
#

Colli.. what

brazen owl
#

Guys I'm still in doubt about the factory key

#

Does it spawn randomly at one of these 3 locations?

steady pilot
#

Fancy word for red dot or reflex

brazen owl
strange mural
#

So you cant use the top sight without?

#

Its random if its there or not

brazen owl
#

On the wiki it only says: "Key location" so I don't know if 3 are spawned or what

steady pilot
#

You need the deltapoint reflex in order to use the top part of hamr yes

strange mural
#

Ah ye

#

Ive always had the dp on so

brazen owl
#

Snutri, but they always spawn at custom

strange mural
#

Didnt know

brazen owl
#

Or there's a chance neither of these 3 spawn it?

strange mural
#

Cant you just buy it anyhow

lyric storm
#

Ey I made friends with 2 geared out dudes

#

They killed the scav boss and let me loot everything

strange mural
#

Pog

#

Gz

brazen owl
#

Me?

#

Its expensive

#

400k for that key

potent atlas
#

@brazen owl in customs/ scav bodies

strange mural
#

If its expensive

#

It wont be there alwaysm

#

Its just rng if it spawns

brazen owl
#

Ok, so theres a chance it wont spawn at none of the 3 locations

#

Thats what I was asking

strange mural
#

Yes

#

Yeah i wasnt sure

#

But most keys are chance game

brazen owl
#

Alright

potent atlas
#

its random

brazen owl
#

5.45x39 BS is good ammo? Found some

strange mural
#

Bs is p good ye

#

Better than bp iirc

#

Less damage much more pen

lapis mauve
#

bs is best 545

strange mural
#

What about 7n39 doe

#

Best pen, too little dsmage?

lapis mauve
#

it takes 3 shots to the chest

#

and 2 to the head if they have a good helmet and you get unlucky

strange mural
#

So too little damage

lyric storm
#

How do you level up traders fast

#

Other than buying stuff from them

strange mural
#

Level up, buy stuff sell stuff do tasks

safe bridge
#

Got two SV-98s off scav runs, which scope should I keep?
PS-320 or TAC 30?

lyric storm
#

Kool

strange mural
#

Why not keep both scopes?

lyric storm
#

Also salewa kits are a nightmare to find

strange mural
#

You can buy em

safe bridge
#

Was planning on keeping both scopes, but was wondering which one I should keep on my SV-98.

strange mural
#

Ahh

#

Up to what you prefer honestly

#

Try them out in offline

cinder elbow
#

Would anyone be able to show me what I should be doing in a scav raid, I just started today and have no clue what I'm doing

lyric storm
#

I need it for the task

#

So I have to find em

grizzled turret
#

Been trying to solo for weeks.. had pretty bad luck.. Not sure if playing with a team would help or if im just destined to be bad at this game lol

strange mural
#

Nom you can buy and trade in.

lyric storm
#

I need 1 can of bug spray

#

Or whatever that is

#

Haven't found one before

#

Also I have 3 ak 74s from the raid

#

What do I do with them

safe bridge
#

Strip them for good parts, then sell them. Maybe keep one, I'm not sure how good they're considered.

zinc lantern
#

Hello guys how are ya, i have a question is this graph true? (in most cases)

lyric storm
#

grizzled turret

@dire fractal thanks mate

scarlet pollen
#

hey guys ! any tips for beginners ? i reinstalled the game today after a year and i barely played it ^^

sturdy snow
#

can anybody assist this noob on a run?

strange mural
#

Keep going wven if you get fucked.

#

Do scav runs for money, and practice the maps in offline as a pmc

scarlet pollen
#

ight, thanks !

strange mural
#

And if you have specific questions shoot

potent atlas
#

Anyone need any help?

#

@sturdy snow foxtrot trio you can hop in there 2 guys playing

lyric storm
#

Bruh it's hard to find players on the Asian server here

potent atlas
#

You can play with others on other servers aswell

lyric storm
#

I can't

#

Apparently if your ping is too high on a specific server they won't allow you to go there

potent atlas
#

Hmm try playing with NA players tell them to select new york city server it should be good for you or turkey, squad leader can invite you to his servers.

cinder elbow
#

Can anyone suggest how to know my position on a map so I can extract?

potent atlas
#

I'll send you some maps

cinder elbow
#

I've got a map up on my second screen, I can never tell where I am on it

zinc lantern
#

@cinder elbow which map

cinder elbow
#

I'm currently on Customs

potent atlas
#

So there two sides of this map north and south

#

One is where you spawn in trailer park area ( garages ) in front of the bridge.

#

Other one is industrial area factories.

zinc lantern
#

in customs you will spawn normaly in the other side of the map compared with the extraction

potent atlas
#

Middle is Gas station (new gas )

cinder elbow
#

I spawned at a gas station in my scav raid but I couldn't tell when I was on the map so I died because I couldn't extract

grizzled turret
potent atlas
#

I sent you this map aswel

#

look in dms

cinder elbow
#

I've got a map of the area up already

grizzled turret
#

I think mines actually outdated

#

I'll update

desert sinew
#

hey fellas, anybody up for a scav raid in customs?

lyric storm
#

Bruh I can't join any server except for Asia and oceania

desert sinew
#

ill be in quad Hotel

cinder elbow
#

I'd be down for a scav raid if you're right with having a new player join

desert sinew
#

yeah sure

#

join me

cinder elbow
#

I don't know how

potent atlas
#

Find a channel

#

and join up

#

in dc

desert sinew
#

you need to verify your profile first

#

in setup

#

and then accept the rules

#

when ur name appears in cian color you will be all set

cinder elbow
#

Ah I see

lyric storm
#

I got a lab keycard when I'm still underleveled

#

Do I sell it?

potent atlas
#

on flea market yes

desert sinew
#

i sold them yep

lyric storm
#

How much you reckon

potent atlas
#

180-200k

desert sinew
#

can anyone explain me how does the wipe thingy works?

potent atlas
#

right click and filter the item

#

@desert sinew every wipe you lose your levels and whats in stash

#

you only keep weapon mastering

desert sinew
#

when is the next wipe?

potent atlas
#

No clue

#

when next big update is out

desert sinew
#

oh okay

potent atlas
#

so 6-12months

desert sinew
#

thanks a lot

#

anyone coming to raid as scav?

lyric storm
#

What server

brazen owl
#

In 6 minutes I'll join factory as scav, miami 1,2,3 servers

lofty vortex
#

My last piece of advice for yall is to check how much gas is in fuel cans that you buy on the flea market before you buy them

lyric storm
#

What's fuel labelled under as

#

Barter items?

potent atlas
#

Metal fuel tank/ expeditionary fuel tank

#

type in and you'll find

#

and its just barter items

vast matrix
#

Guys does matchmaking change when you rank up, like do I get people the same level as me

potent atlas
#

No its random

lyric storm
#

Alright

potent atlas
#

Dosent matter what level are you

lyric storm
#

So keycard for 200k roubles?

potent atlas
#

you get matched against random people

vast matrix
#

So I can meet an OP dude all the time

potent atlas
#

195k

#

would be best

#

instantly you would sell

#

Yes kevin

safe bridge
#

I sold a keycard for 200k about an hour ago, and it sold in roughly ten minutes

potent atlas
#

195000

lyric storm
#

Ok

#

What stuff is worth that much

potent atlas
#

you could ask 4 motors if you need for hideout

lyric storm
#

Or should I go straight up for cash

potent atlas
#

go cash.

lyric storm
#

Aight

#

Eh the max I can go is 100k

#

For cash

robust jackal
#

@silver hornet if u don't like interchange cuz it's dark do it at night nobody can see anything as well haha.

potent atlas
#

@lyric storm thats how it should look when u ask.

lyric storm
#

Oh

#

Can I put 10 fuel and 100k?

#

@potent atlas

potent atlas
#

10 fuel = 200k

#

oh 1 fuel can is 30k rn.

lyric storm
#

It says est price 160k

#

Plus the 100k cash

potent atlas
#

But lowest right now is 195-200k

#

Just ask cash

lyric storm
#

Cool

potent atlas
#

cause people can scam you with empty fuel

lyric storm
#

Uhhh I can't seem to add 195k

#

It just locks on at 100

potent atlas
#

How so?

#

press print screen

#

when your putting it up

#

and upload the pic here.

lyric storm
#

it maxes out on 100k

potent atlas
#

press -

#

and try to write 190000

lyric storm
#

Still 100

potent atlas
#

hmm

lyric storm
#

Bruh I might as well ask for tier 5 armour

potent atlas
#

i can trade something for you

#

what you need?

lyric storm
#

Good helmet and armour

#

So I won't get one tapped

lyric storm
#

Kool

potent atlas
#

put up a trade for these

lyric storm
#

The trade doesn't restrict on any server right

potent atlas
#

yes

#

just make requirements mine helmet and the armor

lyric storm
#

Ok

#

Done

potent atlas
#

i'll trade you when i see

#

armor is lvl 5 so it protects your thorax/stomach

#

helmet is lvl 4 visor is lvl 3

lyric storm
#

My name is Murky_LTE

potent atlas
#

you cant have headset with helmet

#

this one

lyric storm
#

I don't even have a headset

potent atlas
#

headsets amplify sound

lyric storm
#

Sounds cool

#

Also where do you find sugar

#

Need it for fuel trade

potent atlas
#

Dont do that

#

sugar is 50k

#

and fuel is 30k straight from jaeger

lyric storm
#

Oh jaeger

potent atlas
#

38000 on flea market

lyric storm
#

But the market says that the sugar is like 3.4k

potent atlas
#

full fuel tanks

#

No its not 40-50k sugar

#

as u buy check this

#

Resource

lyric storm
#

So what does the approx 3 489 roubles mean

potent atlas
#

Just approx price that flea market system think

#

its not correct

lyric storm
#

Oh

potent atlas
#

38000-38500 full tanks

lyric storm
#

I haven't unlocked jaeger yet

potent atlas
#

So get them in flea market if you need.

#

If you're doing stuff in hideout you need your generator running.

lyric storm
#

The ones that sell for cash are giving me empty cans

potent atlas
#

38000

#

check

#

57 are available

#

and inspect

#

before buying

#

check resource

lyric storm
#

Nor guy?

potent atlas
#

yes

lyric storm
#

Aight

#

How much does 1 can last

potent atlas
#

49 hours

lyric storm
#

Eh it says 25

potent atlas
#

Oh

#

i have solar power

#

thats why i have -50% fuel consumption

lyric storm
#

Oh

#

Damn solar

potent atlas
#

yeah you can have solar

cinder stag
#

i just clicked everything on setup for the voice channels but nothing is popping up

lyric storm
#

Then tap on the tick emote

#

It'll give you this cyan role

potent atlas
#

we hit 15000 lol

lyric storm
#

Ebic

cinder stag
#

ok i did that

#

still nothing lmao

lyric storm
#

Something's wrong I can feel it

#

Also for the bronze watch task

plucky goblet
#

message/ping a mod then

lyric storm
#

Whenever I try to pick the thing up, it doesn't appear in my inventory

potent atlas
#

Its in off raid quest items tab

lyric storm
#

What does that mean

potent atlas
#

if you die with that item in raid

#

you need to have it again

#

and exfil the raid

lyric storm
#

No as in

#

I pick it up during the raid

#

But when I check

potent atlas
#

And you need to exfil

lyric storm
#

It's not there

potent atlas
#

Its not in your inventory

#

its in the quest items stash.

lyric storm
#

Oh

#

Does it count if I pick it up when I'm a scav?

potent atlas
#

No

lyric storm
#

Dang

scarlet pollen
#

well, crash on my 1st pmc raid, glad i found nothing important during those 5 mins

lyric storm
#

Oo I found a gas analyser

#

Sell or nah

cinder stag
#

lol

potent atlas
#

secure it in container

#

you will need it for therapist

mossy vine
#

If u got quest done might sell but if not keep

lyric storm
#

Kool

#

Also got a Geiger counter

potent atlas
#

its a trade up item

ember oak
#

after dooing 20 raids what would be good profit for a new player?

potent atlas
#

Try learning reserve

scarlet pollen
#

aaaaaaand it crashed again when i launched a scav raid

potent atlas
#

it has alot of loose BT/BS ammo and SNB

#

and modded or default aks laying around

#

and you could encounter scav boss / raiders

#

alot of scavs aswell

mossy vine
#

Customs is a must to learn I'd say tho

scarlet pollen
#

if only i could play on it xD

strong trout
#

Interchange is a good one to learn too, it’s a very chill map with lots of loose loot. As long as you steer clear of killa and the Kiva store it can be a good 100-200k haul per raid

safe bridge
#

Having run Interchange over a dozen times, yet only extracted twice, there's a lot more locations to be wary of than Killa & Kiva.

strong trout
#

As long as you’re not just out in the open I’d say I only die 1 in 10 times at interchange

safe bridge
#

Oli & Idea are particularly bad for players (both PMC & Scav).

lyric storm
#

Haven't done interchange before

#

I keep doing customs or shoreline

strong trout
#

Pc rooms and and the shelves on the warehouses in the back (hoses, nails and other valuable bits) are great loot areas

lyric storm
#

If I'm feeling a bit suicidal, I go factory

strong trout
#

If you wanna be super duper safe you can just stick to the loot barrels on the outside of the mall and leave with a decent Haul from those alone

robust jackal
#

Killa was stalking me around genereic

lyric storm
#

Who's killa

strong trout
#

I must’ve run interchange a dozen times but I haven’t seen killa once this wipe

robust jackal
#

Just hearing his laughs and footsteps

#

@lyric storm The scav boss

#

Let's say he is a though and thicc boi

strong trout
#

He’s a dude with an adidas helmet an LMG who prowls around the first floor center escalators on interchange

lyric storm
#

Oh

robust jackal
#

And with ammo that focks you in the ass

lyric storm
#

The guy that wears an Adidas helmet?

strong trout
#

Very Thicc armor and health pools tho

#

The one and only

robust jackal
#

^

#

You can farm him with a mosin pretty reliable

lyric storm
#

Ah it's him

robust jackal
#

7n1

lyric storm
#

Chunky boi

bold kernel
robust jackal
#

Yeah i was just around the apc on generic

strong trout
#

Yeah, but be careful cause even as a player scav he’ll murk you. Pretty sure all bosses and raiders are hostile to player scavs actually

robust jackal
#

I tried to leave through the window the apc is

#

And he was there

lyric storm
#

Can I kill him with a shitty ak

robust jackal
#

I screamed like a little girl

#

LEG META @lyric storm

strong trout
#

Leg meta and pray @lyric storm

lyric storm
#

I see

robust jackal
#

If you kill him you make what 500k?

strong trout
#

Although I saw a video of a streamer killing killa with every single gun and he sometimes gets stun locked by legs Meta

lyric storm
#

I don't know how people make 200k in a raid

robust jackal
#

That's a okay interchange run @lyric storm

strong trout
#

It’s very easy, some common items are worth 100k alone

lyric storm
#

Like I just looted scav boss' bodyguards in customs and I got like 100k

strong trout
#

If you find a hose on a shelf you’re already half way there

robust jackal
#

Learn the invetory game

#

Bags inside bags

#

Rigs inside stuff

strong trout
#

If you loot a graphics card from a PC you’ve instantly made 200k

lyric storm
#

I did

robust jackal
#

Take out mags and grips and stocks from weapons

strong trout
#

Scopes too

robust jackal
#

And you have a smoll weapon

lyric storm
#

I think it's because I didnt sell my bags

#

Like I have 4-5 fucken big bags here

strong trout
#

If you can’t fit a weapon take the valuable attachments instead

bronze ice
#

Learn to differentiate the AKs, some of them are worth 20k~ and others are 50+

robust jackal
#

Didn't knew Killa could be in Generic

lyric storm
#

I hoarded 3 aks

#

Sold one

#

Kept the other 2

strong trout
#

@robust jackal he patrols anywhere around the center of the first floor so just be wary of that area, most scav bosses are like that where they have a set area they could be in

lyric storm
#

Bruh I have literally no space in my stash

strong trout
#

Once you see that double escalator tense tf up cause he could be in one of those shops

#

I’ve even seen him crouched under the escalator itself last wipe

robust jackal
#

If you in a duo

#

You can switch killa aggro

#

Make him aggro you and you friend unload in hos back

#

Then he will switch to your friend and you shoot him

strong trout
#

Zaryas are also good to get him to not insta melt you as well if it’s a good toss

robust jackal
#

@strong trout yeah but i never saw him go inside generic without a player luring him there

#

Tarkov is a horror game

#

Jumped out of my seat when i saw his helmet

#

Was just doing a scav run

strong trout
#

or rather you were just ending a scav run

robust jackal
#

You turn a corner and SURPRISE!

#

He was 2m away from me

strong trout
#

Interchange is such a good map to scav run on

robust jackal
#

He is funny

#

When i want him to spawn he never there

#

But when i don't wanna kill him

#

He always shows up

#

Murphy's Law at it's finest

#

I have like 10+backpacks inside each other

lyric storm
#

Should I sell this antique vase I found

upper sky
#

!wiki vase

broken quailBOT
lyric storm
#

Yeah I'm too low lvl for that task

upper sky
#

@lyric storm this will show you what it barters for or if is needed for a quest. so its value there vs on the market will let you know if you should/not sell

robust jackal

Also do interchange night and Killa is blind

#

Same goes for every scav

#

And every map at night

lyric storm
#

@upper sky the small tick on the bottom right?

upper sky
#

@lyric storm not sure what you're referring to

lyric storm
#

Nvm I'm retarded

upper sky
#

np mate

robust jackal
#

Surprising you can see as much in interchange at night and day.

#

Heh

#

Also easier and more safe to run

#

Not like woods

#

Woods night without NVG is blindness simulator

minor lynx
#

anyone looking to run some raids?

bold ruin
marble blade
#

im such noob tough 😛

lyric storm
#

Do you guys think the paca soft armour is viable

#

For low budget runs

marble blade
#

totally i mean once its shot its useless anyways

robust jackal
#

Will keep you safe from pistol and shotguns @lyric storm

#

With bad ammo

lyric storm
#

So it's good against scavs

marble blade
#

yes

robust jackal
#

Yep

lyric storm
#

Cool

robust jackal
#

But if thr scav has an sks or a mosin nit really going to help

lyric storm
#

This is like my 3rd time using paca

robust jackal
#

But it avoids some dumb deaths

lyric storm
#

The first 2 I got one tapped

marble blade
#

i used to run without armor when i started... learned fast to always take something

robust jackal
#

Pot helmet to go with it is gud

lyric storm
#

Watch me die again

lime glen
#

interchange and shoreline (no resort) only shoreline. maybe factory im not sure. 18+ years old for invite. been playing since launch. I was level 65 before last wipe. dm me if you wanna run with mature players like myself and others or dm for invite

robust jackal
#

Dying is gud

bronze ice
#

Sometimes when I'm feeling cheap I like running with just a makarov or Toz and looting my way up :x
I'd recommend doing this to all the newbies to learn the basics.

robust jackal
#

Makes more space in my stash

#

🤣

#

I need it

bronze ice
#

You'll get your Toz back too like 90% of the time 😄

strong trout
#

@lime glen if you’ve been playing since launch how have you not discovered #pvp-lfg ?

robust jackal
#

Toz ain't even a gun

bronze ice
#

No it ain't

#

😂

robust jackal
#

Throw that shit on someone's face and it's way more lethal

#

Toz not even worth to sell

worthy rune
#

@strong trout where is the #looking-for-group? I'm totally new

robust jackal
#

Too much space for barely any money

bronze ice
#

Yeah, exactly 😄

robust jackal
#

So you can get a role

worthy rune
#

@robust jackal Thx mate, working now 🙂

lyric storm
#

Yeet I got my first ever juicy loot extraction

sour plume
#

ok, maybe im just complaining, but isn't it a little unfair that when a player scav shoots you first and you kill him, npc scavs all start shooting you?

lyric storm
#

I mean

#

To the ai you're just some guy running around the place

sour plume
#

ye but i dont think killing a player scav should trigger ai scavs

lyric storm
#

Eeeee I guess that's how the game works

sour plume
#

because you get punished for defending yourself lol

bronze ice
#

@sour plume I don't think they usually do, haven't played scav in a while though, so can't say exactly 😦

sour plume
#

they absolutely do

#

im looting a body in the factory room outside gate 3, a player behind the pipes starts shooting at me while im looting, he peeks me again and i kill him, then the other 4 scavs in the room all come after me, i kill 2 of them, run out of ammo in sks and die

bronze ice
#

Yeah, I think it's still buggy, you might need to get hit in order to count as self-defense

sour plume
#

kinda yikes in a game where even the smallest caliber round can kill in 1 shot to the face lol, and several scav-spawned weapons can 1shot chest, cant really just let someone hit you

bronze ice
#

Yep, now that I think about it, I usually start blasting everyone after my first kill.

#

But if you want to play it with other scavs, just hang out together

#

and shoot the guys that are shooting at em 😄

spiral dirge
#

i mean is it really yikes when in real life a small caliber round can kill in 1 shot to the face?

#

this isn't CoD

golden jacinth
#

what's the most beginner friendly map? i always play customs, but dont get much done

zinc lantern
#

feelsbad im from eu

#

Customs

spiral dirge
#

shoreline is good too, easy to avoid pvp

golden jacinth
#

and i'm having trouble with the 1st therapist mission, where the hell do you get salewa kits?

zinc lantern
#

you can go interchange and go for caches

#

oh salewa

waxen forge
#

Customs has first task. It is small enough to get PvP but big enough to move around

spiral dirge
#

i got mine from the car in customs

waxen forge
#

Interchange has a ton of loot necessary for tasks and to upgrade Hideout as well as a lot of tasks

spiral dirge
#

just took a few raids is all

#

the white car at the far eastern end of customs

#

has a salewa

#

most of the time

marble blade
#

what one could ask for dorm room 220 key?

vestal venture
#

you can get salewas easily from interchanges mantis store

faint violet
#

Is prapor recovery time 2 hours or 2 days

marble blade
#

its 2 days

vestal venture
#

I see one in there a lot of time

faint violet
#

Ok

waxen forge
#

For insurance?

marble blade
#

yes

faint violet
#

Good cause I really want my 200k Adar back

marble blade
#

72 hours

waxen forge
#

It's 24-36 hours. However if you upgrade Hideouts I believe it's the Intelligence module you reduce insurance time.

faint violet
#

Ok

vestal venture
#

@golden jacinth there is also a salewa spawn in a couple of places on factory however they are not common

#

and shoreline's resort

golden jacinth
#

hmm, thanks for the help

#

will hop into interchange then

vestal venture
#

shoreline has a lot of rooms with salewa spawns

#

also

waxen forge
#

However a lot of the shoreline loot (at resort) is locked. At least the good loot. 3 med station in Interchange unlocked.

#

Shoreline though has tunnel town, pier, and a few other places with loot if you want to avoid resort

#

Factory isn't really a loot map. Not enough time to loot since it's so chaotic. No real loot on the map.

potent atlas
#

In shoreline without keys you can loot all the 37 barrels

golden jacinth
#

First, i need guns

waxen forge
#

True.

golden jacinth
#

everyone always loots all the weapon crates and stuff

waxen forge
#

Scav run. Run passive. If you are really hurting for gear Scav Interchange and just exfil as soon as you spawn. Now you have a kit.

potent atlas
waxen forge
#

If not in that bad shape run interchange and loot passive. Don't look for a fight. Loot PC's in Ollie and Goshan as well as tech stores and some of the weapon crates. Get out and sell it all. Now you have $

#

Run offline PMC for practice while scav cools down. Then do Scav loot run again.

#

Couple runs and you will have $ and gear.

golden jacinth
#

hmm

#

thanks

#

helps a lot

#

I want to learn all the key spawns

#

aswell

#

oh well, time to get to work!

waxen forge
#
#

Keys

marble blade
#

at least lab access keys seem to sell fast as heck

golden jacinth
#

Thanks so much Budracin!

bronze ice
#

@golden jacinth Customs is definitely not the easiest map, but there are a lot of quests in that map :/

golden jacinth
#

ye, i can tell

#

did like 20 raids

#

I only extracted once with scav

marble blade
#

i always team up with scavs 😛 AI is good bait

bronze ice
#

Maybe you're going too fast? 🤔

golden jacinth
#

yeah, i think so

#

tarkov really appeals to me. I want to learn it so much!

bronze ice
#

It feels like Tarkov has a tendency of putting enemies on your flanks once in a while

#

So just keep scanning around you often, not just once after you move

golden jacinth
#

Okay, will do

marble blade
#

idk i have never been shot in back and enemies that have been killed stay dead

bronze ice
#

Depends on how fast/where you move 😅

marble blade
#

oh yeah totally more enemies go to your location once you fire... but they cant if i kill them before that

bronze ice
#

I always stuck to the edges of the area/map back when I started, that helps while learning the map

#

since you have less area to look at

golden jacinth
#

I just found an SV98

marble blade
#

oo

golden jacinth
#

on a random body lol

bronze ice
#

20-30k I think

#

You'd think it would be worth more :/

robust jackal
#

@golden jacinth you can buy the salewa kits

golden jacinth
#

Yeah, but you have to find them for the task

faint violet
#

@golden jacinth

robust jackal
#

Nope

faint violet
#

It’s really good

robust jackal
#

Only if its

#

FIND IN RAID

faint violet
#

I got rushed and dumped mine lmao

robust jackal
#

If its just FIND

#

You can buy them

golden jacinth
#

OOOOOH

#

thanks so much!

robust jackal
#

No problemo

bronze ice
#

@golden jacinth I can do a run with you after work if you want 🙂

golden jacinth
#

sure! If im avaliable i can, might have to go somewhere later

#

where is a good place to put a laser mount on an m4

or is it just how you want it

I'd assume so, you can try it out in the offline mode 🙂

Fair enough

didn't know you can spawn with that..

that's insane

That a couple people have spawned with it

interchange ❤️

mossy vine
#

scav runs are great way for juicy free loot

bronze ice
#

Just don't get too carried away with the scav lifestyle 😄

#

I ran scav runs almost exclusively the first week I played and hadn't done any quests :x

mossy vine
#

Main issue id say is not getting xp and obviously stash size issues XD

bronze ice
#

Yep and the rewards from quests

mossy vine
#

well depends on quest if itd be only to hand something in there's no issue

#

but if u gotta find well

bronze ice
#

Yeah, most quests later on require to run as PMC though 🙂

#

Getting the MP-133s is really easy as a scav though

robust jackal
#

5.45x39 BT or BP? BS expensive

bronze ice
#

Doesn't matter that much, BT is a little better though.

Both kill in two shots to center of mass

what is flea market price on dorm room 105 key?

it’s for opening a door in customs

#

keep it

in dorms

Please for your sake

there's one for 15k tho!

wait highest one after is 15k?

bold kernel
#

no, the highest highest one

shell verge
#

oh lol

stone surge
#

@robust jackal BT kinda sucks because it's tracer.

#

works ok as budget loadout though

faint violet
#

Adar with 100 round mags and cheapest ammo is great

stone surge
robust jackal
#

@stone surge traces doesn't really matter in factory

#

haha

#

gosh Gzhel armor saved my bacon

faint violet
#

Good shit man

#

I do that on interchange trying to salvage my fuck up

#

Like accidentally beaching

robust jackal
#

yeah i had gear that i had to use

shell verge
#

how much is a metal fuel tank worth on flea market?

robust jackal
#

so i though

#

why not factory

shell verge
#

never seen one before

robust jackal
#

paid off

faint violet
#

meh I never find them

#

Check the price on flea

shell verge
#

can you check for me, still in raid 😄

faint violet
#

I’m in school

oh damn

just extract bro

as far as i remember full metal gas cans are like 15-25k

16k empty

cursive geyser

really? thats usually what i get my full ones for

I want my Adar back

I wish it fired a different round than the m4 so they wouldn’t take my mags

😢

latent portal
#

If I am interested in making a jump to start running t4 armor, what body armor and helmet have the best value for the buck?

faint violet
#

bro

#

Just buy a paca and pray no one breathes in your direction

earnest atlas
#

can anyone answer a question i have
?
fp-100 is it only used while in raid or is it passively used even when out of raid?

robust jackal
#

I got that AK in interchange

#

Think it was inside generic

cursive geyser
#

paca isn't really worth it

potent atlas
#

@earnest atlas only in raid

robust jackal
#

I disagree it helped me a shit ton first 2-3 days @cursive geyser

potent atlas
#

everything in stash/hideout dosent give any skill points or xp

earnest atlas
#

TY

robust jackal
#

Saved me quite a bit from scavs

faint violet
#

Paca is a meme

cursive geyser
#

well it may stop like 1 buckshot and then won't do anything

#

better off buying a t3 armor for slightly more

faint violet
#

Saved me from buckshot but then it’s destroyed

cursive geyser
#

^

faint violet
#

it’s nice for desperate budget runs

latent portal
#

paca isn't t4 though, I am currently running t3 and interested on investing in the next armor class tier

robust jackal
#

Usually i can take two but that's cuz usually he is from some distance

faint violet
#

No shit it’s not t4

potent atlas
#

paca is t2

#

pistol shitty rounds can stop and some buckshot.

robust jackal
#

The gzhel saved my bacon looted from one of the guys i killed

cursive geyser
#

i usually run one of the 6b13's but they are a lot pricier

robust jackal
#

Same for that lvl 3 facedhield and helmet

mossy vine
#

T ammo is the bad type right?

potent atlas
#

Tracer

#

ammo

robust jackal
#

Got ambushed by 4 scavs in factory underground

faint violet
#

or go scav around and pick up some tac rigs that double as a armor vest

potent atlas
#

t is better than prs and ps kinda

#

but still tracer

faint violet
#

Wish I could wear soft armor under armored rigs

mossy vine
#

then which one is good?

robust jackal
#

Or buy armored rigs you kill two birds with one stone

stone surge
#

@robust jackal nah tracer is fine in factory y, but BT can be kinda ehh especially if you face gen4 ppl

cursive geyser
#

@potent atlas i would look up an ammo cheat sheet

fair bobcat
#

any tips and tricks to get better at customs raid

faint violet
#

.50cal 12 gauge shells saved my ass

cursive geyser
#

i usually have one handy while prepping for a raid

faint violet
#

Best shotgun shells imo

robust jackal
#

Worst i ran into factory was lvl 4 so far @stone surge

mossy vine
#

will probs have to open up sheet before buying

robust jackal
#

One lvl 5 helmet but meh

stone surge
#

gen4 is really common, they just camp office/lockers with 3-5man squads.

robust jackal
#

Usually 3

faint violet
#

what’s the helmet on the tracksuit boss

mossy vine
#

lasst time bought T ammo by accident and got oofed by scav that i couldnt kill with half mag

faint violet
#

I used it but it got don sided by a mosin shot

stone surge
#

I don't even get why ppl bother wearing tier 3 armor, it's such a waste of money imho

faint violet
#

It’s a middle ground

#

and if you find it

#

Might as well you feel me?

stone surge
#

It's only good vs scavs that have shotguns and pistols

#

that's it.

faint violet
#

If I pick it up and don’t got shit

#

It’s going on

stone surge
#

or sell and pay 10k more for actually decent gear 😄

robust jackal
#

Lvl 3 can stop bad 5.45

faint violet
#

But you know

#

It’s spammed since it’s cheap

stone surge
#

@robust jackal it can't even stop BP bullets, which is basically the minimum budget ppl go for.

faint violet
#

I got a nasty trigger finger so I go through steel case ammo like fast

robust jackal
#

Well i went inside factory with lvl 3 stopped two M9 shots

faint violet
#

Was it almost broken

robust jackal
#

Nope

#

40 left

stone surge
#

@robust jackal you're now comparing 5.45 to 9x19 lul

robust jackal
#

😘

faint violet
#

Pretty similar

#

imo

stone surge
#

but yea like I mentioned.

#

tier 3 can stop scavs or ppl that have shotguns & pistols

robust jackal
#

Going to check his M9

stone surge
#

which also includes m9

faint violet
#

A .45 acp

robust jackal
#

Could be RIP ammo

faint violet
#

would knock lvl 3 armor on its ass

robust jackal
#

That doesn't pen a paca but does SO MUCH dmg

faint violet
robust jackal
#

Also first time my screen gets full red and i don't die and extract sucessfully

#

Gud stuff

faint violet
#

Yeah

ruby sedge
#

👌

faint violet

I ran on two shattered legs with painkillers

robust jackal

He had

#

pst gzh

#

On the M9

faint violet
#

Extracted everything black except my head and one arm

fair bobcat
#

what do scav runs do guys?

#

can anyone answer my question

faint violet
#

what

#

what scav runs to do

ruby sedge
#

Spawn in with random gear at a random time in a already underway raid

faint violet
#

Factory

mossy vine
#

@fair bobcat get u juicy loot without risking anything

faint violet
#

👌

robust jackal
#

Gzhel armor seems pretty solid

fair bobcat
#

i mean that's the best thing to do right?

faint violet
#

Mhm

mossy vine
#

If u don't have any gear

ruby sedge
#

Welll

#

Not really

stone surge
#

@robust jackal it's ceramic L. You're better off going for 6b3tm for budget tier 4 or tactec for budget tier 5

fair bobcat
#

i just bought the game xd

mossy vine
#

But it isnt perfect cuz u can't do tasks and level up

fair bobcat
#

i lost 3 pistols and my ak

faint violet
#

Yikes

#

That’s why you go naked first run

#

Go offline mode and learn maps

#

Or scav

#

Either or

mossy vine
#

Or find ppl to play with like i did

fair bobcat
#

i'll play customs before i learn anything else

mossy vine
#

To safely see stuff around and get loot

fair bobcat
#

anyone wanna play with me now?

mossy vine
#

You might want to verify your rules

#

Then go to voice channels

faint violet
#

Yeah

mossy vine
#

I'm sure you'll find someone

stone surge
#

@fair bobcat Customs is quite hard as a map though

faint violet
#

I already got some dude I play with now

ruby sedge
faint violet
#

I’m trash solo but I’m a good second

stone surge
#

even though they force you into that map for starter quests

faint violet
#

It’s weird

fair bobcat
#

@stone surge i saw many tips that the best map for newbie is customs

mossy vine
#

Customs is easiest to learn but lot of players

#

And scavs

stone surge
#

it is only true because the map is easy to learn

faint violet
#

@fair bobcat

#

I’ll give you a map

stone surge
#

the map is really lineair

faint violet
#

For customs

#

or pull one up on a 2nd monitor

vagrant mirage
#

how do I get 556 ammo?

faint violet
#

flea

mossy vine
#

Ye map is easy to learn and navigate but not easyy any means

vagrant mirage
#

its just not showing up

stone surge
#

customs has chokes and chokes, so you'll be forced to go through the woods behind dorms or go on the streets to move to the other side of the map and this way you're almost forced to find people
