Depends, magbox is pretty neat in labs imho
But not really for saving space in your stash
unique willow
So what is the fastest way to level up strength if you dont have a duo, since all tips for strength leveling have included another player
stone surge
go labs and spam nades
unique willow
how much does one nade throw give?
stone surge
iirc 0.1 exp
per nade all equal
so zharya being most cost effecient
or you'd have to walk being overweight (40kg)
but leveling strength is just stupid, I would just keep on playing and throw nades as much as u can
without actually powerleveling it
unique willow
how much are zharyas?
stone surge
6-7k
unique willow
ok not too terrible
i could get into few games and just start yeeting them
get atleast a couple levels
stone surge
since ur in beginner assistance i dont think u've done labs yet
unique willow
yea no
stone surge
but farming raiders is good for money
and you get more than 30-50+ nades
from just the raiders L
unique willow
well i do have money from basic players

run them where you want to
learning is good
interchange is very profitable though

interchange and shoreline are the next 2 maps im thinking about learning
interchange has the best most abundant loot right?
strange mural
i suggest looking at interchange
yeah
its all ovber the place and abundant even after somebvody has gone through and taken the cherries
shoreline has many snipers and resort isnt worth the risk without a lot of keys
soft light
Im thinking shoreline just because my pmc gets wrecked by someone i never see on customs everytime. Shoreline is more spread out and i can avoid players if i want to right?

if you get a mill or two you can buy items that cost a mill or two
then sell it back the exact same price you bought it for

I'm 99.9% sure that works

@desert hull dead servers? i tried to understand this while watching Pestily, but even if you take the server with the longest wait time, you are going to wait it out and problably you are going to wait like 3x more, can you explain?
soft light
wait i need 10.0 to unlock my 4th order slot?
desert hull
you will have to wait on games sometimes, yes
@soft light yes, that chart lists all the thresholds
robust jackal
also night raids less players
soft light
oof ill try the buying selling trick then thanks 😛
undone hazel
how do i know which are low pop? by the queue time?
soft light
and does dead servers work? i switched to turkey and russia last night looking for quiet servers. it just felt like i waited longer though and still ran into the same amount of players
undone hazel
same here @soft light
soft light
thats how i picked servers by longes que time, not sure if that meant less players though
undone hazel
tryna figure it out aswell
soft light
Are you trying to finish quests un molested karl?
desert hull
@undone hazel match time can be accurate but the problem is high pop servers that are at capacity will also have high match times because of overload
chrome swallow
help somebody or a scav is up on top of the smoke stack on customs and im in the parking lot below it basically dancing
all i have is a stupid toz
desert hull
so you kinda have to know which ones are full and which are gonna be dead
its alwyas the same servers that are dead tho
@soft light @undone hazel also run at night
night always has less players
soft light
night runs are my favorite
soft light
so far im playing this game as a stealth survival lol
undone hazel
ooh okay
desert hull
especially inside buildings
like interchange at night is about the same thing as day
but theres less players
undone hazel
kinda same here @soft light , i wanna make somec decent money and then have fun doing quests that actually take effort and pvp not worrying about dieing and being poor
undone hazel
yeah i guess
desert hull
I even listen to music sometimes on those servers lol
would never dare to do that on a pop server
you will still see players on "dead' servers
soft light
@undone hazel ive been playing for a few days and got money making figured out. im only learning customs so far but i go in at night with a scav and hit every hidden stash. usually make it out with 200-300k if i have a pack
desert hull
it should just be a lot less
if you go to the high traffic spots you'll still run into PvP
like going dorms in a dead server will still force PvP with somebody
just won't be like 3 squads like on the big servers
@soft light yeah stashes are great
soft light
what server are usually low pop? @desert hull
desert hull
interchange has a really easy run too if you want to learn that
never even have to go in the mall cause they're all outside
soft light
interchange is on my list for next map
desert hull
you can just run from your spawn to extract and hit like 8 stashes
I do it as a PMC sometimes even if I'm dying a lot for free money
robust jackal
Miami during the later night is pretty chill
soft light
oh stashed like that in interchange too? sick
undone hazel
yeah i learned customs first too, tryna take my time and learn interchange some day, right now yup trying to make money on customs
desert hull
customs has few loot areas
robust jackal
make money on customs only if you kill a lot of ppl
desert hull
like the biggest attraction are dorms which is pvp heavy and its a small area
and rashala
soft light
i think theres 7-8 stashes from spawn to extract in my route on customs
robust jackal
or now every loot stashes on the map
woven turret
is there any sherpa that would be down to playing with me?
robust jackal
even then not ideal for loot
woven turret
i need some guidance :0
desert hull
I can answer questions in voice
bronze ice
Isn't there always a set number of players?
desert hull
but i ain't tryna play with a group right now
no, game will launch with the minimum or even just you if its bad enough @bronze ice
woven turret
i basically want to play a game with a sherpa and maybe get tips, i will use the sv98
desert hull
just you in a raid is really rare
bronze ice
Are you sure? o.O
desert hull
but it can happen
soft light
can you really get a server with just you? will you still get player scav spawns?
desert hull
yeah and yeah
but if the server is dead enough to have just you in a raid
it probably isnt gonna have many pscavs either
soft light
i think sometimes i spawn as a scav after everyone has left
bronze ice
Wow, that's insane
desert hull
like I said its not common
usually like on customs there will still be about 4 ppl maybe
bronze ice
I always waited in the loading screen with the "waiting for players" status so I assumed you NEED to have the minimum amount of players for the match to start
desert hull
but thats opposed to like, 8-12
desert hull
you'll get them now
desert hull
yes
robust jackal
yep
bold kernel
nice
soft light
@bronze ice im not sure if thats waiting for players to join, or waiting for connected players to finish loading
bold kernel
epic epic
desert hull
@bronze ice waiting for players is waiting for ppl to load I'm 99% sure
and it won't wait for everyone
just a percentage of the players
if that goes for a long time I find its because theres not many ppl in the raid
say if there's 4 ppl and at least 75% of the raid needs to load
3/4 need to load
so like, one dude with a slow PC can slow down the start
whereas in large raids with 12 ppl usually you don't have holdups like that
cause enough ppl load before the others
all that is just my speculation btw
undone hazel
okay just to clarify, how do I know which servers are dead? Im in EU, does it come with experience? sorry for being such an idiot tho 😄
vivid basalt
how do you close the tarkov without restarting the whole pc when the end task in task manager doesn't work :p anyone got any fancy powershell commands?
desert hull
a mix of looking at match times

my hand is killing me reeee
vivid basalt
That moment when it escalated from tarkov not responding to the PC PC not responding
That was interresting ._. I wonder what caused that
magic heart
If you have more than one monitor open task manager before you start tarkov and move task manager to the second monitor. that is how I do it. It only freezes the monitor it tarkov starts on in my experience and everything on my additional ones work fine.
I hope that helps
sorry If I am dumb and that advice was already given
vivid basalt
definitely not what happened here, it was only the launcher
I think there might have something else going on here 😛
crisp urchin
Yeah, sometimes Tarkov fucks up on boot for some reason
I just close it down and open it up again and it works
faint violet
If tarkov was out on a new engine
magic heart
when I press play on the launcher the game wont load and it freezes the monitor that is what I was referring to. sorry I thought that was what you ment.
occasionally that happens*
crisp urchin
For me the launcher closes down on boot
magic heart
there is an option in launcher to stop it from closing
crisp urchin
Not that I have anything against it. Unless the game isn't willing to boot up properly lol
magic heart
lol
the only fix I found for boot issues was to run in administrator every time and have task manager on a second monitor in case it does not work so I can still close it
vivid basalt
yeah no this only happened once before and I suspect my pc would have frozen then too. should be impossible to actually have a launcher basically reserve all the threads on your pc and lock it up, but that's what it seemed like.
magic heart
becasue task manager still works from a second monitor if it is already open whentarkov fails to boot
crisp urchin
Yeah I might try to run as admin when I boot up the game again
magic heart
dang sorry to hear that I hope it all gets sorted out for everyone. seems like a lot of startup issues
vivid basalt
@magic heart are you doing fullscreen thou? it might be a fullscreen bug for you
crisp urchin
I play on a lowered resolution. No idea if that has something to do with it
My guess is something to do with Battleye. No idea
Never had any issues like these before
magic heart
yes I am doing fullscreen. idk maybe. I am honestly not great with this kind of thing. it freezes the monitor and nothing that is running on that monitor responds but everything on other monitors works fine
vivid basalt
I think tarkov crashed on me when I ran it in fullscreen, but then again I tabbed out.
vivid basalt
fullscreen has a tendency to reserve the screen :p
magic heart
wow thanks a lot I will see if that fixes the issue all together.
I honestly dont have it very often. once in 6 or 7 starts
magic heart
but if that fixes it I would be really happy lol
fallow sandal
Anyone want to help a newbie I haven’t even been able to extract once so I’m losing everything I have
magic heart
I am a huge noob myself. I dont know much about the game but I know about boot issues LUL
bold kernel
and insurance
vivid basalt
depends on your pc @bold kernel You can get better performance on fullscreen.
crisp urchin
@fallow sandal I was in the same boat like a week ago. I recommend learning the maps, being less scared, be more confident, watch videos of people playing the game. With time it will get better
bold kernel
throw away your gun
crisp urchin
Currently I'm sitting at a full stash of alright gear and about 2 million in roubles
magic heart
you can sign up for a sherpa on the website I believe. I need to read the rules for the discord still
depending on the area you might find one easily. there are only 2 on the site in my area that I saw atm
good luck with everyones issues I hope they get fixed or you get help soon. I am off to get killed in some raids myself LOL
crisp urchin
I remember a week ago when I couldn't get anything done. Now I can easily run money runs on Interchange and do quests. Which is awesome
Just shows the incredible learning curve of the game
bold kernel
yeah my first week i died 95%
vivid basalt
@magic heart good luck in the raid, I think I am also heading in now that I restared my pc adn stuff.
crisp urchin
My survival rate is about 40% now. Might not be a lot but it's just nice to survive raids
desert hull
40% is pretty high for the playerbase as a whole
probably slightly above average for this discord
if I had to guess
bold kernel
or u take less risks
vivid basalt
I got mine up to 14 😛 just takes one bad day and you got like 10 raids with no survivals
bold kernel
not really
dense pine
hmm... is there a list of which cases can go into a secure pouch?
bold kernel
but that theoretically IS surviving
desert hull
yes, but nobody is doing it
bold kernel
you're implying it though
desert hull
just like how I can say getting PMC 4 kills in a raid isn't impressive if you happen to be cheating and killing squadmates
desert hull
?
point being
if you die your raid was a failure unless you did something that carries over anyway
being tasks or something you butt pocketed
crisp urchin
I try not and get into fights considering the gear I have and considering the other PMCs may have
If I see that they are running cheap armor pistol, sure I'll take fight
vivid basalt
@crisp urchin Try out the Hunter, been doing pretty well with that and its affordable.
bold kernel
are there any mag options for hunter
crisp urchin
I have actually been running the mosin with the 3.5x scope. Been doing some work with that
bold kernel
or is it fed directly
vivid basalt
well mosin is slow, while the hunter can lash out 5-10 bullets at a decent speed.
woven turret
guys
desert hull
@crisp urchin mosin is more accurate
woven turret
i just made a dude mad
vivid basalt
yeah agreed the 5 rounds is pretty bad, enough to kill a scav, too little to be able to miss a shot ;p
bold kernel
yeah but
desert hull
@vivid basalt what?
bold kernel
does it support magnified scopes?
desert hull
the gun one shots 95% of scavs

there was a not snuck in there

how is six bullets not enough to kill a scav
woven turret
i was scav in gas staiton, so, this guy tries to kill me an di go trough the beach to lighthouse and he was waiting for me (he tough i was waiting until it was clear) but since i flanked he wa sjust there with no cover
i just one tap him
desert hull
you can miss 5 shots tho
woven turret
vivid basalt
I have missed 4 shots and got the scav on the 5th only to have scavs rush me from behind while I was reloading 😛

but...toz =laser to the face
last night I was faced with two exfil campers at tunnel on shoreline, you can't really flank someone exfil at tunnel

the toz is awesome on scav runs

so I ran from car to car, one guy popped out, toz to the face @ 40+m
ran to another car, toz to the leg @ 30m, both dead in under 10 seconds

crisp urchin
I haven't really gotten to use the Toz. For shotguns I've been using mp-133 or the 870
pseudo mural
I racked up 2 PMC kills+5 scav kills last night as a complete noob in the dorms, cuz toz is basically a laser to the face
way more so than the mp133
like, I'm not even really aiming
crisp urchin
Toz with the filthy ammo is probably insane lmao
pseudo mural
now, the dude who had the facemask helmet
i did legs him cuz, i shot him in the face and nothing happened
then an AI(i think? it was a scav in dorms) shut the door on me as I threw a grenade and it bounced back into the room I was in..a room with bars on the windows
so i died
crisp urchin
Oh wow lol
pseudo mural
I know right?
pseudo mural
After it happened I was like "...that AI is friggin smart"
if ya'll don't know yet, if your new like me...nades are amazing
crisp urchin
I haven't used nades at all yet
pseudo mural
go offline and learn how to use em
they will save your butt a lot when you get into a situation where you can't get out of it easily
esp if you are doing like dorms or gas station or something
also unlike other games, they don't explode on impact, they'll roll a bit, you can bankshot them too
bold kernel
they will kill you too if a throw is too tight
pseudo mural
in buildings that becomes super useful, esp if your like holding a stairwell and someone with better gear is trying to come up
ya
also they bounce off doors if the AI shuts the door 😛
I'm still running shoreline only because I really enjoy it and am learning what to do where to go a lot better just running one map
any tips on improving your aim besides turning your mouse sensativity down?

I would recommend playing aim train games. Not EFT especially

bold kernel
oh ok
desert hull
cheap investment, lots of utility
woven turret
is it recomendable to have like a sv98 and a pistol with it?
desert hull
not recommended to have any specific loadout
all preference and what you have on hand
woven turret
i will use pistol for close combat
desert hull
if you want to know what I do then yeah, I use pistols with my snipers
gray mountain
Depends on what scope you have
desert hull
but truthfully a backup cheap rifle is a better secondary
gray mountain
imo
desert hull
like a VeprKM
gray mountain
if you have a long range scope you probably want a pistol or shotgun secondary
if you have a short range scope, just quickscope those idiots
at least when it comes to scavs
undone hazel
how many tasks do you have to do to get the gamma container???
ocean burrow
how beneficial is pinging a sherpa and having them raid with you..anyone done it?
bold kernel
vepr hunter is a good mid to long range. if u practice hip fire you can spray a 10rnd mag to some effect
lapis mauve
you can only get gamma with eod, epsilon is for doing the punisher quests from prapor and kappa is for doing all quests
lapis mauve
kinda
desert hull
can also barter for a beta from Pk4
bold kernel
I have a fair number of ppl who like to raid with me regularly
lapis mauve
if someone sells to fence, idk if you can use flea to trade it anymore
pretty sure i can't sell my epsilon on flea
bold kernel
if you put ur gamma in bag at stash you should be able to raid with it I think...
strange mural
yes
lapis mauve
Yeah, I will probably do that to give epsilon to my buddy when his computer issues are fixed
desert hull
@lapis mauve you can just sell in raid
desert hull
because they're ass
lapis mauve
Btw if you get alpha vest you can have 6 toz’s loaded and ready to fire on your hot bar
gray mountain
what
lapis mauve
So 30 shots before reloading them all
gray mountain
damn
lapis mauve
You can key guns in your vest
lapis mauve
Not drop
gray mountain
ye
desert hull
cooler to drop
gray mountain
imagine just pushing a guy behind cover
desert hull
like you dont even care
gray mountain
and you drop 30 buckshots at him while pushing
desert hull
which you dont if you're using 7 TOZes as your weapon of choice
desert hull
you want to know whats faster than using different tozes
speed reloading 1 tozx
lmao
bold kernel
quick reloads is a thing
desert hull
rounding corners with the FAL with a laser
bold kernel
dunno if it has a soft skill
lyric storm
I can't hit shit with hipfire half the time
lapis mauve
desert hull
not with a laser
pseudo mural
but that first round hits true 100% of the time
pseudo mural
no I mean, it feels like a laser
desert hull
not when ADS
lyric storm
The laser turns me on
cerulean cape
if 2 people are in a party, and 1 of them has specific servers set, will it choose one of those servers the one person has et?
pseudo mural
as in, you pull the trigger, the bullet follows the path of where the barrel is pointing 100%
desert hull
the person who invites everyone will be the one who picks server @cerulean cape
pseudo mural
toz/fal both feel like that for me
cerulean cape
aight
lyric storm
It chooses the leader's server
pseudo mural
I wanna play with others, but really only with people as new as me(like, under level 5, a group of noobs who have no idea whats going on)
open basin
so for bp depot do i have to mark them all in 1 raid and survive?
lapis mauve
No
bold kernel
no
crisp urchin
You don't need to do them in one raid
lapis mauve
Can do 1 or 2 or whatever
open basin
oh sweet
bold kernel
each step can be it's own raid
lapis mauve
If you have a small container doing them 1 at a time is good
crisp urchin
I personally did it in one raid
lapis mauve
Same
pseudo mural
Why is it scavs see me from 200 feet while turned backwards and can snipe my face off with a saiga 9
is it something I'm doing wrong, or are certain scavs just insanely good?
pseudo mural
they seem to have better situational awareness than any PMC lol
lapis mauve
Sometimes, other times they are blind
pseudo mural
one sniped me from the radio tower on shoreline while I was next to the wall running towards the traintracks to exfil
yet sometimes I can walk straight by them without them noticing as long as i'm behind them
lapis mauve
That’s not an ai scav, they don’t spawn there (unless you mean weather station, but can’t see the wall from there I’m pretty sure)
dawn cargo
^^
lapis mauve
99% was a player scav
pseudo mural
that makes sense. two seconds later as I ran towards the road to customs exfil, I got one tapped to the face by the AI scav that sits there
it was just a bad run
lapis mauve
Yeah, if possible check for scavs there before running in
pseudo mural
I did, he had gotten into contact with someone else I think
cuz he was around the corner near the sandbags
i ran to the rock, hid, peeked, shot and i think it was just a lucky shot that domed me
lapis mauve
You can extract to the right of the gate, next to the wall
pseudo mural
it was pretty funny
Ya, but I always run to the rock to grab cover to scan the exfil first
lapis mauve
Hard for scavs to see you there if they are by sandbags
pseudo mural
he was by the sandbags
wasn't like it was a big loss, it was a scav run where I had killed 3 other scavs(in my defense...they had a weapon I wanted)
I know I shouldn't kill scavs, but when you spawn in with a toz and nothing else sometimes its gotta be done 😛
lapis mauve
Usually I scav on interchange or reserve, since I only shoot players I almost never fire so gun doesn’t matter
pseudo mural
I will one day play those maps
I'm 100% trying to learn as much of shoreline as I can before moving onto learning customs
it's been a great intro into the game, because customs as a newb you die pretty much instantly it feels like
lapis mauve
Yeah, customs is kinda small and easy to funnel into people
severe finch
Na fam
lapis mauve
Run or jump to die faster
gray mountain
DAMN
pseudo mural
Yup
lapis mauve
Made your chest go to 0
bold kernel
welp
pseudo mural
I had a super hard fight on pier the other night, I didn't understand the exfil ???? thing
hey atleast you got exp! I'm still level 4 lol
lapis mauve
??? Means it may or may not work
bold kernel
pseudo mural
Had a super hard fight on pier, got to the exfil, boat didn't come, I was blacked out on both legs
lapis mauve
Usually there is a light or something if it’s open
pseudo mural
walking to the tunnel took 19 minutes
bold kernel
some exfils
gray mountain
feels bad
bold kernel
can have a 50/50 chance
pseudo mural
ya I learned that last night
bold kernel
and they can only be used once
pseudo mural
remember, I asked you about it
pseudo mural
Kebab, you US?
bold kernel
what lvl are you
pseudo mural
4atm
bold kernel
hmm
pseudo mural
i've been doing a lot of scav runs where I just exfil with the weapon I am given
cuz..I kinda didn't understand the game at first
cerulean cape
whats the cheapest food/water per rouble?
pseudo mural
still ahve 200k roubles tho, I bought the maps and some armor and a weener helmet
cerulean cape
maps not worth, use online maps
bold kernel
optional exfils usually have markers. some have been... malfunctioning and have no clear sign of availability apart from exfil counter starting.
cerulean cape
vepr/paca/penis best budget kit imo
bold kernel
not true
lapis mauve
Cheapest food and water is what you find in raid, rest is way overpriced right now
strange mural
i wish you could atleast draw on them or something
cerulean cape
meh, only using food/water for hatchet runs, so not finding any in raid, but running out very quickly lol
bold kernel
You can give the maps to others with the labels still there too I think
lapis mauve
For food both the lunch boxes are amazing
If you can make aquamari in hideout you never need water again
bold kernel
lapis mauve
Wiki
lapis mauve
It tells you everything about your quests
lapis mauve
I can give it a try later, in like 3ish hours
bold kernel
yeah as if anyone is looking for players
that aren't at least average
on lfg
I'll be available for sherp raids in ~1 hour
region?
na
smh
lapis mauve
If you invite people they play on your server
lapis mauve
Just depends on if their ping is unplayable
bold kernel
well even in na some servers are just bad sync
lapis mauve
I play with someone in Brazil (I’m in California) and we both have ok ping on each other’s servers
bold kernel
damn idk if i wanna play tarkov
like rn it's great but i feel like this might be just a honeymoon period
tarkov takes no casuals
it's not about being casual
i just probably shouldn't be playing games like this rn
