by zeroing under and aiming up
I mean the advice doesnt apply to you partner, if you are as good as you say you are
πΏ
ignis is correct
Doesnt mean its not good advice for us
most times approximately aim at the headish area because often you wont have enough time to get a perfect shot, but if you can and do have time then sure, go for it
you tell me what to do alot
No hes telling US what to do
go ahead and continue to talk to yourself about it then
is me
be my guest
and you're telling us things that vets can do
hey guys should i sell my dogtags or what should i do with them?
yeah
usually sell dogtags to therapist
i sell em personally
yeah same
there are trades later on but not to worry about them right now
theyre very profitable
i keep my friends dog tags lol
do people actually buy them on flea for like 10k?
I got the Glock 17 after trading 3 cowboy hats with he mechanic, now what do I do with it
although im sure some do
Same, we have a guy who dies constantly and its kinda a competition to see how many of his dog tags each of us have
@lyric storm shoot people
shoot bitches
I can shoot half the time
@mystic pasture I do this with my squad mates too
Man that glock baited me so hard
Thelminas, you'll need 10 of USEC/BEAR each for a quest
I thought it was full auto cos of the size of the mag
And I don't wanna lose a precious glock
ahhh thanks guys!
lol
I like some of y'all
don't come to night customs tonight
all in time
hes new, i dont blame him, its hard to get over it at first for sure lool
I'm kinda like this after losing 4 M9 Berettas in customs
oof
well its an M9
I have 4 M9 Berettas I took from people in factory π
vepr hunter and fuck everyone up
Yeah I laid off pistols most of the time
maybe try just doing some offlines on factory against scavs to get your confidence up, and scav runs to get you some more gear
Ok
do that
Lemme try
just go kill scavs
Inb4 I die
hit their head
yeah, set them to ez and high amount, on PVE and they often wont hit you
Sp6
Did I mention my aim is borderline atrocious
great aim practice
expensive as fucc
yeah, def go practice for a while, also watch your crosshair placement
as do all 9x39
7n9 specifically is kinda bad
if aimed at chest level
I think I need moar frames
i talked with tower about it at length a few days ago
@lyric storm ill happily run some raids with you tomorrow if youd like some training
7n9 has the most whack ballistic profile of the 4 rounds
Yes please
damn bro, thats all good with me
not sure tbh
Yeet
yuh, gn thanks for the tips
is there a straightforward way to make decent money or get decent loot on customs?
Feelsbadman
I just broke 1 million Rubles! Woot!
ty!
i am very split between doing tasks and grinding moneys
@strange mural I am very split between playing tarkov or actually doing something that brings me joy
hey guys im new, which map should i learn first?
what is a good way to level up fast
do tasks
@pale rover customs has a lot of low level tasks but is pretty bad for beginners otherwise
I more have the problem of just getting shot in the head from someone next to me I didn't even hear approach
Either way anyone wanna show a newbie around for a bit? I only bought the game yesterday
@pale rover shoreline
why shorelien?
it has quite a lot of random money spawns around
but its quite a pvp map with a lot of snipey boys
and resort is a no go
@pale rover customs because easy to learn extracts and early tasks require you to go there
interchange is good for getting loot early on too
Hi Iβm brand new to pc and tarkov
Idk how to add friend on my pc
Or how to really do anything lol
what do you guys rebind your key to to change optic reticle/optic zoom? default is LAlt+RMouseButton
seems fine by me
can't change while ADS though
you use hold?
Need money
I was down to sub 100k cash lmao

want 2 bucks?
Got bad spwnding habits
which stuff should i buy from flea market? @desert hull i think if i kill scavs i get more loot that looting boxes or am i wrong?
@pale rover guns are cheap on the flea and sometimes armor too
Ammo as well
Honestly anytime you want something buy from flea
If it's cheaper from a trader their listing still shows up
okay. and hwo can i check which weapon attachement work on my weapon?
Link search the part of the weapon you want to find attachments for
Right click to linked search
It will show all things that can attach to that part
If you need help with weapon modding just ask me
Or others here
@lyric storm u new?
ok then don't answer it's not like i wanted to play factory with you anyway π‘
@bold kernel eeeeeeee I just died in factory night raid
Because I didn't bring armour or meds
I'm gonna buy another round of nvg
Or hope insurance woman gets my stuff back
I wouldn't bother to insure through therapist. Not worth the extra cost.
Just time of return. Therapist is a bit faster but not by enough to justify the cost
yeah
Oh
It was my first time using therapist
And it was also my only nvg
I'll just stick to prapor then
whats the best cheap scope to put on a hunter?
1p59
can i just slap it on there?
You need a mount I think
@ember oak no
1p59 scope
can you not wear body armor with an armored rig?
ye and i'm lvl 5
They removed that
still gucci enough
i don't wanna be a burden so i don't lfg
fam i cant hold myself half of the time
You need a 1p59 weaver mount @ember oak
If you want a scope without much mount stuff you can just grab a pso sight
well i can't play anyway
Should slap onto the dovetail mount on the side
which key i need for that on customs?
shot someone up there but he closed the door π¦
Factory key to use shortcut
What the hell is that. Too small to really tell. Is it ice cream?
Military checkpoint key
which keys i should buy as a beginner?
You will need "customs key" for some tasks.
Shoreline keys are also needed for tasks.

Check that
206 and 303 keys you find on scavs every 2 minutes
Unknown key is always in the dead body by construction and they truck key "Machinery key" is always in the jacket in dorms.
@pale rover you can get on top of the building without a key
That's a possible sniperscavspawn
TIL about the land mines π
He streams mornings. Same team as DeadlySlob and Kotton. Good source of info for the new guys. Just went live a couple minutes ago.
Gotta love spawning as a scav, having a labs key on u at spawn then finding a fsctory exit key in the first coat u check
Living the life over here 
Yea, tbf i spent it all on decking out a FAL
is it ever worth going labs as a beginner or should i just sell the keycards i get?
damn the RR pick is expensive?
red rebel
is incredibly fucking useful
@river cedar not really if you dont have money for kits and good ammo
just sell it for 200k tbh
i do have some kits that i got off of other players and also a scav boss but i imagine you gotta be giga good in order to make any profit off of labs no?
also this
what about it
yeah sounds pretty scary to go there on my own
yeah people like cashing in
ye
Saw one at 400 for 20k yesterday which aint too bad
is it possible to offline raid with a friend?
400 for 20k is kinda worth
check salewa price
Good luck
Can't fucking finish shaking up teller
Fuck customs and anyone involved in its creation
@gray mountain it's the best off raid healing
Yo I swear I can't hear people creep up behind me half the time
Lost my prized ak because of that
If any new players want to run some raids in an hour I'd be free
Me pls
Sure
My helmet doesn't allow
So what about those chunky hard helmets
Also if it doesn't allow ears then it probably muffles hearing
I see
@lyric storm players will most likely one tap you anyways
That's why I never wear a Kiver or zsh
To the head at least
ssh masterrace
Hue
Any fellow beginners trying to go die together? lol
and then that other rag helmet
ZSHs can take headphones
@sterile dirge you can join us once I get online
@rich cloak sounds good let me know when
The normal faceshields are level 3 armor. Which means that it won't block a wet fart
there are many zsh
Nope. No ears
or similar soundinfg ones
Not the one I mean
Gotcha
I got the ssh one

Frick
Guys is an A18 worth keeping
!Wiki a18
helmet of masters
It's solid
If the A18 isn't trashed
@lyric storm
I'll wear it when u get online then
Not sure if I would repair it
If it's down to 1/2 durability I'd sell it
Yeah Drago, thats exactly what I've been using it for π
If you are scared of using it sell it
Flea or trade
compare prices
Check skier...see price. check flea (factor in tax). Make choice
Is it shamed upon to do hatchet runs for marked room in dorms?
no
Not really
I can't even sell it to skier
because boss will fuck you
You'll get destroyed anyways
and its crowded
Then sell to flea
Ive done it 4 times no problem
If skier won't buy it (and it's empty) then it's too damaged
It's at like 24 ish
But someone will buy on flea because they haven't leveled traders and can't buy good gear from trader.
Yeah skier doesn't buy it than
Yes he does if it's empty and not too damaged
Imagine buying armor 
I'll just put it for 60k
Skier always buys gear.
Does he?
it prolyl has stuff in it
Never sold armor I think
dun it
Did you check lowest price? Is it around 60K
I wonder how long he's been using it
If the lowest price is 90K i'd say post for 75K or 80
Armour class 4
No what material is it
Combined
Ok
Yea @rich cloak Skier always buys gear (unless it's too damaged) that's part of the Therapist>Skier>Mechanic progression.
Aperently certain materials take more or less durability damage
Yea ceramic does not repair well
@waxen forge like I said I never sold armor to traders
Tactec repair rates 
I really could use some help with inventory management and what to keep and what to sell.
Should check with skier more often. He just paid 15k more for a class 4 armor than the lowest on the flea.
Traders aren't bad
Keep task items/hideout items. Buy lucky scav junk box to help store them.
Where can I get a lucky scav junk box?
@severe finch therapist or flea
Ah okay
Therapist level 2
I only just unlocked the flea
I'm trying to, trying to sell a lot of items, because I keep running out of space
I have a general idea of who to sell what to, but I need to keep leveling in mind
@severe finch barter items sell best at therapist
I noticed that yeah
Check Flea price (factoring in TAX)>Therapist>Skier>Mechanic
After checking flea check therapist. Sell her everything she will buy
Then move to Skier and mechanic
Break weapons into all parts and sell parts to Skier then rest to mechanic. makes more $ and helps get the "spent" up with both
You can get prapor spent up just buying ammo and weapons
I never really get anything from prapor atm, because he doesn't really have good bang for the buck items
@lyric storm like I said I will be on in a hour or so but factory is a huge yikes
@severe finch pp19
Just one run
Buy it and sell it back
Jup
I just sold my PP19
We can do the water one if you want
We'll see what we can do when I'm on
Rsealmen do dorms quests by afking for a long fucking time
Sadly that's kinda true
Because everyone has extracted by then?
@lyric storm dorms is a absolute shit show
Factory is shite at night
hey guy!
so what does every one think of the game i am in stalling it now.
Played mostly Tarkov for 2 years so I'd say I like it
Its a very good game
I know @rich cloak
I am now very addicted to gear
I need to turn down my spending
i hear its hard
It is
lol
It is hard
cool
To be real yes its "hard"
@potent drum best game i've ever played tbh
also iits my very first computer game
i just bought a computer last week
Holy Shit. First PC shooter and it's tarkov
dont think any other game bring me that rush when you find valuable items and you need to extract with it hahaha
Oh boi
This is going to be a experience
sooooo i am ready
O h B o i
Like skipping week and moving straight to crack
Just reset expectations
Youll die a lot
Youll suffer at the start
i hear i cant wait
@waxen forge more like skipping to crocodile
nah
For starters
@lyric storm if they want to start here let them
Why bother with cs
Because jumping straight to tarkov is a big boi move
NEver swam before and decide to swim from NY to England
Alright alright
Why does everyone on the flea market want Alonya?
go big or go home mama aint raise no bitch. lol
!Wiki alonya
Something something sugar to moonshine to cases
!Wiki alonya
But if you're new don't worry
@severe finch alonya?
It's alyonka
Yeah that
Oh yeah
sorry
How much does it go for?
Choccy
I dunno, but every trade I can find wants it as payment
2 with Nutritiou Level 2 gets you sugar
I mean
Its pretty easy to figure out
Its either quest barter or a hideout item.
sugar is for fierce hatchling moonshine
Dont twll them not to do them
But to be smart and check the prices
And compare
There are plenty of barters that end up in small net profit
I am just so confused right now.
On flea some people sell for straight cash
Ok basically
How can we help? @severe finch
For now you go trade with the traders
Other's "sell" say a suppressor but don't want cash they want like 10 sugar or something
Flea market is for when you get to lvl 5
And that's a ripoff
Can't do flea til level 5 yes
I have no idea. It's all a bit overwhelming and I need to figure out the economy of this game
Also dismantle whatever guns you want to sell to the traders
It earns slightly more profit
Than selling the whole thing
wow is this all part of the game trading stuff
Yea
I mean it's realism
The market regulates itself
It ain't something like csgo where you save awp
oh boi
And by that I mean that market bots regulate the price of certain items lol
Res
Pwople want to buy and sell items for their quests and hideout upgrades
This makes those items worth money in the market
ok
Here is the simple idea. Traders sell all items that Flea sells (except for gold chains and other valuable items you can only find in raid). But to buy certain items from traders you need to level them from 1 to 4. So for example you may not be able to buy a big backpack from ragman til level 4. His price for that backpack will be X. However with the Flea Market PLAYERS sell items to other PLAYERS. They know you can't buy it from traders so they sell it for a HIGHER price to MAKE A PROFIT. So do tasks and level traders and you will be able to buy items cheaper than you will pay on the Flea
@lyric storm Cs references probably don't help someone who plays their first video game 
Oh yeah
Ok
I was hoping he'd watched some gameplay
Also
Accept the #521628660298678283
"Saving awp" is not a thing you usually hear in everyday life 
O you unlock the role

RUSH B
And the server
Yesterday I learned
Not to get attached to guns
Rip my sks
M4 Adar
My five seven
π’
Oof
It's a lesson you would have learned eventually
I think I just need some help getting a basic setup that's effective and easily recreatable incase of death to just get going well then I just need to figure out what to sell and what to keep. And in case of selling where it is smartest to do so.
Guns are just means of making more money and having fun in the process
Outside of the 5/7 those are all ehh
yeah
Modded the guck out of all of them
Whatever
@zealous forge it's about personal preference
Modding them back up is half the fun
Is it possible to do the the triple flashlight m4 meme
@faint violet and that's why the veprkm is amazing
And win
@lyric storm yes

But why would you
Honestly @severe finch I would worry more about learning maps, scav behavior, PMC behavior, tactics, and such more than worrying about gear.
Russian shit
Because I love memes
Adar
Veprkm allways comes back
I sniped someone with it across the river on customs
I'm poor I'll take some guys modded vepr
just a wall of lead in his general direction and he died
"sniped" 
Fuck you "bad service version"
Huehuehu3
It is sniped
If itβs 300m
Itβs just
30 rounds going in his general direction
Well right now the problem is that I have started to get familiar with some maps and how they work and are put together, but when getting into gun fights I just have nothing I can comfortably use, so a shot in the head and I am gone.
Yeah you need to use armour
what kind of silencers are like good? or is there like a big difrence or? (really new btw)
Don't tell that to a new player please 
@grim rampart in general they don't have a huge difference
Aw shit
ty @rich cloak
And that may be bad depending on the gun
In general you want a silencer to not be loud af
Most of them are the same
Usually of you buy the cheapest it's fine
Suppressors help but you can totally be successful without one
Sks tho
Sks isnt worth using though
I don't like sks
Mag dumped a fucking level 33 with a black mosin
Oh it's a totaly passable gun
You can sell it and buy a better weapon for the same price
SKS is also just kinda meh
do people use real money to buy items or does every thing happen in game
Veprkm 
Never knew mosin had a polymer body
I'd rather use the AK 74u tbh
No reason to use SKS over vepr KM anyways
@potent drum all Ingame
Everything happens ingame
In game @potent drum
thats good news
It IS a dmr
so then you canβt compare it to the vepr
But then again vepr KM does everything better than SKS
@lyric storm but if you use a sks or veprkm you want the 7.62x39
Sks can eat my pants with the long reload
Vepr does literaly the same job with less modding
Or get a 30 mag with vepr KM hey
Veprkm works in the same slot as the sks but is just better
No I'm not gonna spend more money
I've already spent a fortune modding most of my aks
Where is delta when we need him
Where we voicing
Use whatever you like but it's really just a better sks
A elitist for a budget gun 
It is right
π¦
My budget gun is anything the scav can bring me
Whatever the Adar is better than both
If it's a vepr
So itβs ok
I'm selling it
^
If it's an sks
I'm selling it too
is there place in discord i can find someone to link up with
Isnt 800 like very little
Oh
Yes
3 mags
Or level traders and buy it cheaper
I always buy 1
thanks you guys have been great wish me luck hope to see yall in there
Adar is really solid
good ammo is good ammo my g
I don't fucken like single fire weapons
Because my aim is shit
And I'm playing on a small screen laptop
I'm that bad
If you donβt like single fire weapons
Problem with full auto is the cost of sustained fire
Get a better trigger finger
Lol
if you canβt magdump 30 under 6 seconds
like what is good ammo for the adar
Yeah for real
The only single fire weapons I use are tozes or saigas
@grim rampart at least m856a1
M995 is the best ammo
^
ok
Others are subpar
Tbh I feel so disabled playing this game
Fr
M995 costs 900 per bullet

-_-
Good finger dexterity will come in useful later in lifeπ
Itβs like firing mini M829
How
What can I do with good fingers
Whoβs gonna tell em
Other than poking someone's eyes
Just stay on topic
Good for opening jars and whatnot
Yall children
good
I think you use the wrist
Thanks dirox
Not the fingers
no
M995 costs 900 per bullet

Finger strength is essential for opening jars you dunce
If you canβt get a tight grip donβt even try
Off topic
But only $4 per at Peacekeeper level 4
Reeee
Eeeeeeeeeee
Holy
Imagine peacekeeper 4
Nikita lowered the amount recently
Kool
Bronze watch doesn't go in your inventory @faint violet
^
Then WHWRE IS IT
It's a TASK SPECIFIC item
In your task stash
In you raid task inventory
what
Like he just said
When you extract
hmmmm
It does not show up in inventory
This is bs propaganda
But if you die you lose it
I didnβt
You die
Donβt think
Check tasks
Imagine talking shit and not knowing how fucking quests work 
Oh yeah I did nvm
Omegalul
Itβs all coming back to me

Pepegas in the chat

I got dc and came back to a scav fucking me
Gay


unfortunate I lost a fal with a 60 rounder
Bruh I lost 100k whenever I play
Take it slow and you'll make it
Canβt take it slow if the game disconnects you crossing the bridge on customs
Bruh I spent about a mil on hideout yesterday 
π

tarkov likes me
I'm 400k away from getting stash upgrade
The scav finding your afk body 
So help
The bots in this game scare me

More than anything else

Normal scavs arent a problem
The scariest thing is the sound of a grenade hitting the floor
Yep
Because If you hear it
Thatβs how I lost my sks
You are neck deep in shit
No the fucken scavs I hate the most are those sks scavs
Some guy was spamming nades cause he canβt hit shit with his primary
That's what I would do
i am back
If I rmb to use nades
kek
That greande is basically worth as your sks 
140k
Sks scavs are nothing compared to sniper scavs
who do i want to be bear or usec
Fucking golden Grenada
R u a weeb or American
whoβs a weeb
english
Russian?
I smell them
Pick usec
USEC it is then
@potent drum Bears looks like bears and swear in Russian
@potent drum do you want to sound like someone ripped your spine out every time you take a step with a blacked leg?
There is no correlation
Idk
There is 100% correlation
Probably because it's russian
As a USEC u get to yell "GET THE FUCK OUT" all the time
So you're a bear
Seems like you are the only one here fitting thaqt description
@faint violet that was actually pretty funny 
Fuck off
Triggered by your own joke
Usec gang
Iβm just clowning on myself today arenβt I
Jup
thatβs half the fun
I'm with bear and I think I regret it

clown
This one voice line cemented my choice of PMC when USEC 3 came out π
@lyric storm as you should
Ah whatever
I can learn russian anyway
In the settings menu
Ok
Eh anyone can play with me
Later on, I'm interested to see how the PMC-specific skills play out
What is memory skill
@lyric storm
Nothing yet iirc
Memory's supposed to reduce skill rollback
That used to be a feature a few patches ago
Instead of asking
thanks newb
Wiki it
Trained skills last longer before they start to fade.
Note: Skill rollback (fading of experience in skills) was removed in patch v0.8.0.1208 (19 Apr 2018)
Effects
Decreases the rate at which you forget
Decreases rollback of skill levels
Elite level: Now you won't forget any skills
Yeah Iβm bad π
Yee? @potent drum
Level 8 of this skill is needed for the library
Wait
Can you forget the memory skill
No
What server u on
ok
uhhhh
uhhhh
Uhh
Uuuuuuu
As long as your intellect, perception and charisma are levelling, you gain memory skill points too
Big brain
Similar to how health works with endurance and strength
america
I am evolve
brain 2 big sticks out of cover
Feck I'm on the Asian server
You can still play
wait @lyric storm
Yeah but 200 ping
where r u from
just friend each other
Singapore
200 ping wonβt affect you
oh
Just the people shooting you
200 ping is on the limits of playable still
I'm pretty sure it does
It fets worse at 250
Don't have to be on same server to play together. Whoever does the Invite is the server host and the other person plays on that server
So if someone shoots at me
Also don't have to be friends in game to play together
you may live
Hitreq is clientside
It takes like 0.2 seconds to register
no
good thing i have no friends
π€‘
There is just some minor desync etc etc which may be good or bad depending on situation
Nvm I'll wait for like 15 more mins
tfw you play as scav as first game and you die within 1 minute
It's okay
Pretty normal
I die within 20 seconds
Welcome to Tarkov
@wicked escarp play more
Twice
lol i am
Ooof
Try not to unless you really need their gear
I kinda never learn
lol i kill them out of panic
Unless you have a chopped mosin with no sights
Like, really
then murder
hey
Because I totaled 2 scavs and ran
or angry
Still angery
Its apparently area based
Tagged and cursed
But basically everybody will be angry
can't be angry if u ded
Just kill the scavs
Fun fact: Player scavs always have a pouch slot when you loot them
Fun fact
Scav agro is proximity. If (as a scav) you kill a scav at big Red on Customs...the scavs across the bridge won't be agro
Scavs scream when they see you
Its not 4head
Its legit just
Or anywhere near them
Kill them
Inb4 I fucken die from a thorax wound
Because I can't aim for shit
And scavs seem to hit every shot
You hear them yell, seek them out using cover and headshot them
That's what I do
ok were do i want my first place to be
customs
Customs has early quests
But when I peek out, 0.025 secs later they yeet me
itβs a funnel tho
@lyric storm peek at diff place
It doesn't matter
It does.
It really do matter
