@round ridge Optics, suppressors, some grips and pistol grips.

[small perch]

@round ridge keep in mind, silencer, scope, 50-60 round mags

[waxen forge]

If it's a wooden stock or pistol grip leave it behind

[mighty jasper]

I'm only home on weekends and I've come to understand I have a specific time window to claim items, meaning I can only play on Friday and Saturday @small perch

[round ridge]

How about the rails or whatever they’re called

[mighty jasper]

My question is is there a solution for people like me who cannot claim items within the given timeframe

[waxen forge]

Maybe but I'd take tech over rails

[small perch]

I usually dont pick up grips or pistol grip since i know ima drop em before the end 😂

[mighty jasper]

Like can I log in via the website on my phone to claim my items or something like that

[fading shoal]

Clase choose therapist as insurance. You can claim items within 7 days

[mighty jasper]

Wait seriously?

[small perch]

No so far there is nothing you can do but log in your game on your pc

[waxen forge]

No @mighty jasper items last as long as they last. Even if you can log in to stash, claim insurance, and log out you can get them. So would need a PC that can load stash not play game.

[small perch]

Choosing therapist is a really good idea

More expensive tho

[mighty jasper]

Better than nothing wouldn't you say?

[waxen forge]

Therapist is not worth the extra for insurance imo

[mighty jasper]

If therapist gives me 7 days that solves everything

[rain harness]

is there gonna be that free i-case winter gift this year too?

:(

[waxen forge]

Only in a case like above would I recommend it

[small perch]

You do what fit you best bro ! @mighty jasper

[mighty jasper]

Cheers fellas!

[round ridge]

What’s the time frame to receive your insured items before they de spawn?

[mighty jasper]

Listen I really don't want to pay the(I think?) extra 60% for therapist but prapor is pretty useless to me unless I play Friday morning

Expensive insurance is better than no insurance

[strange mural]

Insure everything
Use the one you prefer

I use prapor because cheapo and i can just claim whenever

[fading shoal]

@round ridge I think prapor is like 2,5 days but therapist 7 days

[strange mural]

Claim is three days

For prapor atleast

[small perch]

@mighty jasper i would suggest to only insure important stuff if therapist is tooe expensive

[plucky apex]

that's ok i just dont want to run factory solo i find it abit chaotic sometimes

[round ridge]

Thanks 😊

[plucky apex]

@small perch

[small perch]

Yeah factory can be a big mess lol

[waxen forge]

A team on factory will make it more chaotic. Have to worry about enemies and communicating with teammate

[round ridge]

Just wear an armband

[strange mural]

Always just.. insure everythinf

No reason not to

[waxen forge]

Never waste money on armband

[strange mural]

You havent so far your comms are quite alright

[small perch]

Thats a raid in factory, where scavs just kept rushing me in the locker room 😅

[round ridge]

Just Jump check

[strange mural]

Yep

Lmao

[tight elm]

I'm playing as a scav on my first run on customs and can't find an extract. What happens when the timer ends?

[waxen forge]

You are dead

Double tap O

Shows exfil

[tight elm]

I've got crossroads and railroads to tarkov but have no idea where they are

I'm at a gas station right now

[waxen forge]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Customs#/media/File:Customs-2d-by-ROFLWOFFL.png

[tight elm]

I'm a scav

crossroads and railraods to tarkov

And I'm currently at a gas station

[round ridge]

Lmao I remember being on factory looting and I randomly died because I didn’t know what extracting was

[waxen forge]

Which gas?

New or Old?

a dead end. NO way out other than the way you went in

New has woods above it

[golden geyser]

Oh damn, that guy earlier was so confident that disassembling all guns and selling at vendors beats selling whole gun to Gunsmith

he was WRONG

I knew my maths wasn't that ass

[waxen forge]

He wasn't wrong overall @golden geyser

[round ridge]

It does beat

[tight elm]

Okay I guess imma just die lol. I'll try and watch more videos and hopefully I'll know better next time

[golden geyser]

Oh yeah, but I said if there was any exception and he said no

lol

[kind thunder]

is 3m body armour any good?

[golden geyser]

Maybe for most guns but not the two to three guns I've tried

the rest, sure

[waxen forge]

We was 100% correct. Break and Sell to Skier then rest to Mechanic

[round ridge]

Are you selling all the parts to the same guy

[waxen forge]

Makes more Money

[golden geyser]

No

Skier for all available, rest to Mech

[round ridge]

Hmm

[golden geyser]

Yes, 100% confident

I triple checked

lol

[round ridge]

Everytime I do it I get more from disassembling

[waxen forge]

Disassemble makes more most of the time. Maybe not that time but overall it's more.;

[round ridge]

Maybe some of the parts went onto your pmc? If you control + clicked the parts off

[golden geyser]

No it didn't

I rebuilt it every time

Sure

1 sec

[waxen forge]

Did you sell first to Skier then rest to mechanic?

[golden geyser]

Yeah

[pseudo mural]

the cheapest BP being 499R is rough man

[waxen forge]

Then maybe that time it didn't work...but overall it does make more money to disassemble and sell Skier>Mechanic the majority of the time.

[golden geyser]

I mean, even if it sells for more it's barely anything

I just checked with the FAL

[pseudo mural]

man, literally every decent ammo is insanely expensive

BP is 499R, 856 is 355-400r, M61 is 384r

having to spend 350+R a round just to have a chance to clap someone in Gen 4 is pretty nuts though

[tight elm]

What's the best way for me to go about learning a new map, especially the extracts?

[fading shoal]

depends on your budget but I dont find ammo expensive at all, only m995 is

[golden geyser]

I honestly just want help with the golden zibbo quest, I've died 3 times trying to bushmen around the dorms

[pseudo mural]

499r is pretty expensive honestly

2 rounds is 1k.

[waxen forge]

Internet map on 2nd screen. Offline mode with scavs off to explore and learn map.

Then offline later with scavs on to practice.

[strange mural]

SlowlyPassedToday at 15:29
BP is 499R, 856 is 355-400r, M61 is 384r @pseudo mural

those are not the best ammos though

other than bp

[pseudo mural]

The best ammos are even more expensive

[strange mural]

856 loses straight out to 855a1

995 is ofcourse expensive

[pseudo mural]

855a1 is 384R

[strange mural]

its incredibly good

[pseudo mural]

995 is 875r

[strange mural]

yeah

you have to pay for quality.

[pseudo mural]

I mean

[strange mural]

55a1 is good enough

[pseudo mural]

that's more expensive than a vepyr.

[strange mural]

also m61 isnt worth using

yes.

but guns are just platforms

for the ammo they use

[pseudo mural]

how much is 855a1?

[strange mural]

3$

if you get it from skier

its 200 ruples

[pseudo mural]

That's not too bad, so basically vepr/akm/sks are unusable for price

[strange mural]

peacekeeper is 2¤

[pseudo mural]

(for a new player)

[strange mural]

not really

[pseudo mural]

can you get 855a1 from skier at LL1?

[strange mural]

ps ammo is fine

for 762

no

[pseudo mural]

Lol

so...you understand my annoyance here?

[strange mural]

not really
you have to pay for quality and ammo is everything

prior only 995 was good too

kek

had to pay 1k a shot

[pseudo mural]

Yes, and prior to that, ammo was a lot cheaper.

[strange mural]

but the other ammos were trash

so ofcourse you pay less

for trash

rather pay premium for ammo and cheap out on the gun

[pseudo mural]

Ya, except paying for premium ammo is more expensive than a cheap gun

I spawned into interchange as a scav, had a keycard on me, an adar

m856a1

11 seconds later a PMC sniped me

had enough time to run to cover, press tab, dead.

[strange mural]

only solution to ammo is either

to level up

or pay till you do

[pseudo mural]

I am leveling up

[strange mural]

im fine with ammo prices as long as they arent 7 dollars each

[pseudo mural]

but getting to LL2 on skiier will take what

lvl 13-15?

[strange mural]

lvl two skier does not sell it

[pseudo mural]

wait, isn't 800 rubles $6?

or is it $4?

[strange mural]

its around 8$

[pseudo mural]

So ya, ammo is $7 each.

[strange mural]

100 and .... 4? ruples is one dollar

yeah

only ammo i wont generally pay for is 995

every other top tier ammo is manageable

[pseudo mural]

It basically limits your choices to either 7.62 PS, which does bounce against high teir gear pretty regularly

or mosin

[plucky goblet]

762 BP

[strange mural]

aint too bad

[pseudo mural]

ooh cheaper than I was seeing it

so that's, 15k for a full magazine right?

[strange mural]

yep

[pseudo mural]

or 5k for a 10 stack/10k for a 20 stack, that's still insanely expensive and not doable for me but it will be eventually

looks like I'm stickin with SKS/AKM

[strange mural]

sks uses the same ammo

[pseudo mural]

there are good and bad to ammo being that high, one PMC kill can bring you 50k in ammo alone, I generally grab mags/ammo before guns now

[strange mural]

[pseudo mural]

Ya I know

[strange mural]

also

ps is honestly fine

[bold kernel]

hngggg

wanna know what would be fun?

[pseudo mural]

It is, for the most part. But running vs peeps with BP and a penis helmet getting one tapped vs dropping 5 shots into them is no fun 😦

[bold kernel]

tactically throwing items

[pseudo mural]

or no way that was on an adar, I magdumped a 20 rounder into a dude with 855 and he turned around and domed me with a VSS

[strange mural]

if its 855

[pseudo mural]

the person I was running with couldn't stop laughing, either it was a bug or the dude had like a 500k loadout

[strange mural]

its absolute garbage

[pseudo mural]

well I haven't bought ammo for flea market yet, so if it was an adar it was def 855

[strange mural]

yeee

[pseudo mural]

since decent ammo outside of PS/Mosin is locked behind trader levels

[strange mural]

855 is literally peas

like

[pseudo mural]

ya

bouncing with 855 is super frustrating, and until level 5, and even ontop of level 5 when your too broke to afford decent ammo for the 5.56, kinda no point to use it

[strange mural]

so

if you want to run cheapo stuff whle you make that money

just use either a gun that uses 7n1 or m80

both are relatively cheap

the rifle platforms consume a lot of ammo

and fullauto isnt generally worth

[pseudo mural]

I run carbines to limit my cost

I can tap fast enough that full auto vs carbine isn't a massive issue

[grave helm]

Question: If I want to upgrade my EFT version to EOD do I lose something or need to reset my acc?

[waxen forge]

No

[strange mural]

nope

[waxen forge]

New items come in messenger

[strange mural]

it just comes in mail now

[grave helm]

okay thank you

[pseudo mural]

which guns run the m80 again?

that maybe the best choice considering I only have 136k

[strange mural]

vepr hunter

fal

m1a

and uhhh

m700

[bold kernel]

ffs

[pseudo mural]

maybe I should just stick to doing scav runs for a bit, cuz I can't even really afford a kit atm

[grave helm]

scav runs are pretty easy money, if you're new stick to them or go completly naked into a raid but u need to look up the good loot spawns to make it worth it

[waxen forge]

You need to use scav runs more efficently to make $

[golden geyser]

How much you got in the bank?

[pseudo mural]

130k

[golden geyser]

pffft

[pseudo mural]

I accidently deleted about 300k last night

[golden geyser]

What did you buy?

[pseudo mural]

🙂

[grave helm]

I make like 50-90k in 15min scav runs

[golden geyser]

LOL

[pseudo mural]

nothing lol

[waxen forge]

Interchange. Loot PC and tech store. Get out. Sell to Market (if price makes sense) or therapist. Easy 200K each run

[golden geyser]

I lost 650k from dying in a Scav run

I was 15 seconds away from evac

[pseudo mural]

Ya, I put 300k into my alpha on accident while talking to my wife moving stuff around

[golden geyser]

and..?

[grave helm]

I got 240k from yesterdays scav run cause someone stacked backs into each other

[pseudo mural]

er not alpha, trizip?

the little bag

pouch? i dont remember it's name

[grave helm]

pouch

[golden geyser]

Then what happened

[grave helm]

but its safe tho since you dont lose it

[pseudo mural]

ya, I threw it on instead of my army bag and went in a raid

[unique willow]

how much is black labs card worth, asking so if i should run trough

[grave helm]

check the market

[unique willow]

really cant

thats why im asking

[grave helm]

wait I check for you

[unique willow]

if i should run trough

[golden geyser]

I would if I wasn't in a game atm

[pseudo mural]

270k

[unique willow]

oh

[pseudo mural]

for black lab card

[unique willow]

fuck

yea imma just run

[pseudo mural]

ya I had a white one earlier and was just running thru, had to go to ruined fence, was running by double loot and a PMC got me 😄

[fading shoal]

lol why

access card is 180k

[pseudo mural]

because 180k is double what I have?

[unique willow]

fastest raid i've had now

but easy 300k plus

worth the run trough

[fading shoal]

so for 90k profit you go for run through

ok then

[unique willow]

?

you lose money if you run through?

[waxen forge]

no

[pseudo mural]

yes, for 180k I would 100% run through

[unique willow]

i dont understand kraidens point then

[solid gulch]

i only run through if i spawn with a labs keycard tbh

[pseudo mural]

this chat is for newbies, of course we'd run through for 180k

[unique willow]

well ofcourse i will run through for 300k

[golden geyser]

lol just 180k

[strange mural]

i mean

[pseudo mural]

"just" 180k

[strange mural]

just generally running through with keys is worth

[silver dome]

does run through have any negatives?

[strange mural]

its free money

no ti doesnt

[silver dome]

then why

[pseudo mural]

no, none

[fading shoal]

`talking to slowlypassed

[golden geyser]

Nope

[silver dome]

are they saying

worth the run through

[golden geyser]

People just have really big egos lol

[silver dome]

like the run through does anything bad

yup

[pseudo mural]

Ya obviously.

[unique willow]

if i spend 2min in a scav game to get the money for a high tier set then whats the point in not running it?

[pseudo mural]

Kraiden, yes, most people here would run thru for 180k, there's no risk, it's a free 180k.

[fading shoal]

he has a black labscard for 270k, but the labs access key is 180k only. Why go for run through for 90k profit? when you can make 4/5 times as much with one labs run

[pseudo mural]

what?

[waxen forge]

Labs is totally overrated.

These are new guys so they aren't exactly ready for labs

[pseudo mural]

I want you to take a newbie loadout into labs, with low level armor helmet and weapons and survive

and make more than 180k

[waxen forge]

Hell I have a couple thousand hours and I take the 200K for the labs access card vs. bothering to go in

Played that damn map too much when it came out. Cheesing raiders into a hall isn't fun.

[pseudo mural]

ya

it's guarnteed profit, vs risk, esp for new players that 100% isn't worth it

[fading shoal]

fighting scavs on interchange or whatever map is more fun than fighting labs raiders?

[pseudo mural]

Most of us can barely afford ammo to pen raiders

[waxen forge]

Push button. Hold down a hallway. Let raider open door. Shoot him. Wait for next one.

Not my idea of fun

Been there done that.

[bold kernel]

guys

i have an issue

[waxen forge]

I'll take the 200K labs access card $ each time and run other maps.

[fading shoal]

well dont talk about fun when 8 out of 10 pmc's is hatching running reserve or shoreline.

Those must be having a lot of fun lol

[bold kernel]

my insurance items returned

[fading shoal]

I have more fun

[bold kernel]

and now my inventory is fucked

what do

[waxen forge]

Ok man. Enjoy yourself

[pseudo mural]

Dude, we're noobs

congrats on having more fun

you're in the beginners assistance chat

[fading shoal]

congrats on the 90k profit

🙂

[pseudo mural]

Wow, you're a piece of work man.

[unique willow]

kraiden is here just to flex on newer people since we are the only ones he is better

[fading shoal]

Really? He's saying congrats and I say congrats and im the bad guy lol

wtf

[bold kernel]

lol just read kraiden's messages

yikes

[pseudo mural]

Dude, what aren't you understanding?

You are in the beginners assistance chat, flexing on people about how we're bad for selling lab card

[fading shoal]

if you dont understand its not very good tactic to go for run through with that little profit but instead take it as an offence

[pseudo mural]

and telling us you have more fun than us, than people in a chat that's specifically to get better and improve

and you are surprised people are annoyed by your flexing?

[brisk shell]

what loot does lab offer?

[pseudo mural]

lol

[fading shoal]

YOure talking shit to me about farming labs

[pseudo mural]

Nothing when you die because you can't pen raiders

[fading shoal]

that its boring

[rose echo]

Guys take it elsewhere please

[pseudo mural]

It maybe boring, but this is for beginner assistance.Saying run thru and sell the card is a great move for a newer player

[fading shoal]

i helped a lot of guys in this room with tasks and gear

and tips

[brisk shell]

is there something good in lab?

[fading shoal]

but you just flame

[waxen forge]

Dude He had a black key card. It was worth 270K. It was a scav run. He made 270K profit. Seems logical to me.

[pseudo mural]

Ya there's all kinda good gear in there fuze

[waxen forge]

Move on now

[pseudo mural]

but it's hard to get to because they aren't normal scavs

[rose echo]

Move on or get muted, please

[brisk shell]

I haven't been able to find a helmet anywhere

[pseudo mural]

they flank you, throw nades, do all kinda other stuff

ragman sells helmets

[brisk shell]

well I haven't played labs yet

[waxen forge]

@brisk shell Buy one from Ragman

[brisk shell]

can you find helmets?

[pseudo mural]

yes

scavs will have them often, although I always end up headshotting them and ruining the helmet

[brisk shell]

ok so I would assume helmet protects you from small arms fire?

but it's not good against rifles

or am I wrong

[pseudo mural]

so, armor works weird in this game, it depends on not on the caliber but the penetration vs damage of the ammunition the enemy is using

[plucky goblet]

depends on armor class and used ammo

[pseudo mural]

certain ammo won't pen certain armor

[brisk shell]

but it will do some damage right?

[pseudo mural]

if it doesn't pen I think it just takes away durability of the armor iirc

[brisk shell]

oof that's new

mostly games just make armor so that it reduces damage lol

but good to know, also can face masks protect you from getting 1 shotted to the head

[waxen forge]

Face masks cosmetic/do help a bit with hiding the very white face

[brisk shell]

no I mean the ones that slightly obstruct your vision

[solid gulch]

god i fucking hate interchange

[brisk shell]

when you have them on

[waxen forge]

Oh you mean on helmets. Yea they can protect but some obscure vision and some helmet/visor combo like the Kiver muffle hearing.

[brisk shell]

I would assume it's best used during combat

[unique willow]

is there literally any point on having lvl 1 helmet on, since i cant hear anything and it will only block like a single pellet from a shotgun

[waxen forge]

Never use Motorcycle or Fireman helmets

[plucky goblet]

class 2 helmets are useless

just throw them away

[waxen forge]

@brisk shell Visor is not perfectly clear and does obscure vision some. Can help with cost of reduced vision clarity.

[brisk shell]

ah ok

also how do flashbangs work in this game, I know they're called something else but do they like blind you?

[pseudo mural]

so for skiier LL1 quest, I need 4x toz, and 4x module-3m vest right?

[strange mural]

some motherfucker got me hard
i looted all of his mags and stuff, alongside his akms

his second mag was .366???

and i reloaded and couldnt do anything

what a troll

[pseudo mural]

it has to be the module 3m bodyarmor right?

[strange mural]

yes

needs to be those exacts

[pseudo mural]

Which raid can I find that in, cuz 25k is a lot 😛

[fickle kettle]

Scav

[brisk shell]

where can I dollars

[waxen forge]

Its just random. Can be any map

Exchange rubles for Dollars with Peacekeeper

[brisk shell]

ah ok thanks

and I need a coputer for bitcoin?

computer*

[waxen forge]

Bitcoin can spawn in safe, scav pockets, boss pockets.

Not in computer

[brisk shell]

oof but I heard a friend saying

[rocky ocean]

@strange mural maybe he didnt knew it doesnt work with akms because it fits into the mag

[brisk shell]

he was farming bitcoin

[waxen forge]

You can farm bitcoin in Hideouts.

[strange mural]

yeah likely case göki

[brisk shell]

yea that's what I was talking about sorry lol

how do you do that

[waxen forge]

Have to upgrade other modules before you can access and then update the bitcoin farm

[brisk shell]

ah ok

@strange mural bro

i gotta waste my items

[strange mural]

hell yeas

[bold kernel]

i have too many weapons cuz of insurance

[fading shoal]

buy from peacekeeper

[bold kernel]

what

[pseudo mural]

so what exactly is the secure container change everyones talking about?

[brisk shell]

does insurance act like a huge alpha container if you inscure everything?

insure*

[waxen forge]

Not really

If someone loots your dead body and exfil then you don't get it back

If nobody loots you then you get insured items back

Mags are returned EMPTY

Meds are not returned

[bold kernel]

it also counts for thrown away items

[broken briar]

guys at this point imma give up i have been trying to get 15 scav kills in customs i have spent 2h and gotten 0 kills

[bold kernel]

so if you throw an ak away

into a bush

the insurance will take it back

no matter where you threw it

as long as no one finds it

[brisk shell]

oh nice

[bold kernel]

same if someone were to pick up your weapon and then drop it somewhere to get a different weapon from a guy

[broken briar]

help?

[brisk shell]

ok that's neat

[bold kernel]

@broken briar git gud?

play slow?

don't run naked with a hatchet?

[broken briar]

in going in with a tt and a guy in fort pulls up even in 3 am

[bold kernel]

and what armor do you have

maybe move out of spawn asap

[waxen forge]

Damn. He may have been new too. Fort sux. Not a lot of vets want to use it

[broken briar]

i dont couse i go in with tt

[bold kernel]

lmao i think that's your issue

you wanna kill scavs

[solid gulch]

i fucking hate interchange so goddamn much

[bold kernel]

[strange mural]

[frosty plinth]

my stash is a dumpster fire

[strange mural]

id like you to know im working hard to max my account

[bold kernel]

(;

[silver dome]

snutri

whats ur recoil control at

?

[strange mural]

havent leveled it intentionally

so its prolly shite

[silver dome]

how much would it cost to get it to elite

as in the price of bullets

[strange mural]

a lot

[silver dome]

how much

[solid gulch]

lol i extracted while bleeding out and unable to fix myself thanks to the infinite healing bug

[silver dome]

lol

happens

[solid gulch]

i had literally 50 health left so almost didn't make it

[flat bay]

This is what happens to me on woods every time I spawn RIP https://streamable.com/wiybe

[pseudo mural]

spawn in, somehow get in 2-3 minutes late, immediately headshot within 10 seconds on customs. weeee.

Is there a way to speed up loading time? I'm running a 2tb 970 pro evo SSD nvme

[robust jackal]

you were in suicide field

at day

XD

[pseudo mural]

no, spawned outside storage

oh antivi ya

[flat bay]

I spawned there

[pseudo mural]

suicide field in day=bad

[frosty plinth]

but it looks like you also spawned late

[pseudo mural]

not much you can do about it 😦

esp when you spawn late

[robust jackal]

there is a reason

it's called suicide field

[pseudo mural]

ya, and if you spawn late you are almost guarnteed to die quickly it feels like

[robust jackal]

i avoid going there even doing night just go around it

[strange mural]

JUST NEED TO GET A HANG FOR THE OTHER SPAWNS

slow walk

[robust jackal]

play woods at night

[strange mural]

but yeah

[robust jackal]

i enjoy it way more

[flat bay]

Not much I can do though when I spawn there xD I hit the guy once and then got sandwiched by another guy from my left D:

[robust jackal]

no BS snipping from across the map

[pseudo mural]

ya

[strange mural]

usually i feel people spawning later have an advantage because they spawn in to others backs

[pseudo mural]

when you spawn there, it doesn't matter

[flat bay]

When I go at night I get popped so easily

[pseudo mural]

Snutri, usually when I spawn late I'm headshot within 10 seconds it seems

[robust jackal]

even with NVG?

[pseudo mural]

happened twice today

[flat bay]

yup with nvg

[robust jackal]

sometimes u gotta play slowly

[flat bay]

I do xD

[robust jackal]

my survival rate at night is bretty gud

[pseudo mural]

that's my name

;D

[frosty plinth]

@flat bay if you spawn there late like you did, run toward the water instantly, not to the boxes. And just hope no one catches you

[robust jackal]

yeah if you spawn late

gtfo

out of your spawn

as quickly as you can

same goes for customs

[flat bay]

I'll try that next time @frosty plinth in this situation though it wouldn't have done much as there was another guy on the hill

[frosty plinth]

true

60% of the time, it works everytime

[robust jackal]

when you were looting

those crates

[flat bay]

xD

[robust jackal]

there is a spawn

to your right

like

150m in

if the guy rushed you

its gg

[flat bay]

2 of them did xD

and it was gg

[robust jackal]

yep

[flat bay]

they might have been a team

[robust jackal]

spawned there before

[fickle kettle]

Rip

[bold kernel]

i wanna stop using pistols to level assalt rifles

but pistols are so good

[robust jackal]

you could have also just hug lake

and got away

[flat bay]

look at 1:10 @robust jackal on the hill wouldn't he have caught me then either way?

[robust jackal]

probably not

cuz it goes downhill to the lake

the hill would cover you

unless

he went to the spot

you were before

in those rocks

then he could still see you

[flat bay]

either way it was a bad situation i guess XD

[broken briar]

do i need body armor if my rig has armor

?

[flat bay]

I was hoping it would just be the one guy and i could go around and get a shot in

can't wear body armor with an armored rig

[silver dome]

WAT DA fak

[robust jackal]

Hill would cover you there

@broken briar you can't wear armor and armored rigs at the same time

[flat bay]

Yeah it probably would have but then I'd still have 2 guys on my tail xD

[robust jackal]

XD

[bold kernel]

uh

anyone here uses smgs?

[stark coyote]

Yep

[frail forum]

guess who just got his first succesful extract? :D

[bold kernel]

why do they feel like toyguns

[bold kernel]

@hearty sky "healing bloodloss removes 30hp from the ifak"

[frail forum]

@bold kernel me too bruh

[bold kernel]

so if you don't mind wasting 30 durability of your ifak when healing bloodloss

then yes

[frail forum]

also got 2 keys in one raid yay

[bold kernel]

@stark coyote at that point i might aswell use an assault rifle

lol

[hearty sky]

@bold kernel ok tnx

[strange mural]

9mm is shit ammo

guns are just platforms for ammo

and if the ammo sucks

[stark coyote]

Lol, why ask the question if you don't want the answer xD

[strange mural]

the weapons arent that good either

[bold kernel]

because i was wondering if you could make smgs viable

[prime topaz]

can i build pc to mine btc ? why are there so much pc parts ?

[bold kernel]

and i mean low tier ones

@prime topaz yes

[strange mural]

yes you can.

[prime topaz]

how?

Hideout is a location in Escape from Tarkov.

[strange mural]

you need to kill legs

[silver dome]

Lol

9mm armor piecing is op

[stark coyote]

Smgs are viable because they have fuck all for recoil, if you can land 1 headshot, you can land a dozen without stopping the spray

[strange mural]

no it isnt.

but yeah

you either go for face

[strange mural]

or you cut the legs off

[bold kernel]

eh

honestly

i guess it's not a weapon for me

[strange mural]

https://i.imgur.com/9Q1IhRq.png

[bold kernel]

^

[strange mural]

such is the fate of the 9mm

[stark coyote]

Try an mp153 with ap-20 slugs kebab

[bold kernel]

uh we're talking about smgs

[stark coyote]

That weapon is for everyone xD

[bold kernel]

not shotguns

but yeah high tier ammo shotguns can be fun

but i have a different question

why?

[stark coyote]

I'm aware, and you said they weren't for you, so i recommended something on the opposite end of the spectrum

[bold kernel]

when i can just get an ak

[strange mural]

for fun

its the onyl reason

[stark coyote]

Aks are trash xD

[bold kernel]

lol what

[strange mural]

no they arent.

[stark coyote]

Okay, no, they aren't, but they aren't a weapon for me 😛

[strange mural]

exaactly

[bold kernel]

what about m4s

are they any good?

[stark coyote]

If it doesn't 1 hit kill, i want it to have no recoil xD

[strange mural]

guns are just up to what people prefer

same with scopes

[bold kernel]

i'd assume lower recoil

[strange mural]

the ar platform is good

[robust jackal]

ak's are my babes

[strange mural]

lower damage, semi pen, liuttle recoil

[frail forum]

btw is the weather still based on Moscow weather?

[strange mural]

better modding id say

no weather is random afaik

[bold kernel]

@frail forum what

lol

[frail forum]

i think the weather used to be based on the moscow irl one

[bold kernel]

really?

btw i didn't actually survive my first raid

[strange mural]

i got a pmc kill in my first raid

[analog scarab]

there better stats than mine

[bold kernel]

i think after my first ten

i had like

10% success rate

maybe even 0

and no pmc kills

but on scavs i had no issues getting a kill from time to time

too bad it took me 7 days to realise it was because of armor 😡

[stark coyote]

Well yea, scavs are kinda trash xD

Do a factory offline with impossible horde scavs, that shit is fun AF

Bring a lot of mags tho 😛

[grave helm]

lmao

I would get roasted by them in an instant

[bold kernel]

but still

they have armor

even shit tier armor is worth

[stark coyote]

Face xD

All it takes is 1 shot below the helmet, above the neck

[solid gulch]

right in the ol' jugular

[stark coyote]

Above the neck xD

[solid gulch]

if you had a faceshield i think the jugular would be your only bet tho

[stark coyote]

Also, since it's factory, it's close range, so it will help you learn to hip fire, no time to ADS

Nah, hosk, just use an extra bullet 😛

[glad bridge]

im relatively new to tarkov i know enough about shooting and the basics but i am not good with extractions and what items to pick up/sell so would anybody be down to play with me and help me learn how to actually play this game

[strange mural]

JUST THE FIRST TIP

#521628660298678283

accept them

[glad bridge]

oh ok

[stark coyote]

The second tip. Don't get shot 😛

[glad bridge]

i know that much

[stark coyote]

Sorry, if i had time today i'd actually try and be helpful xD

[glad bridge]

i just need help with getting a lot money and best ways to do raids

and also how to use the hideout

[stark coyote]

What do you consider a lot of money?

[bold kernel]

hey

[glad bridge]

like 500l

[bold kernel]

do scav raiders

[glad bridge]

500k

[bold kernel]

kill player scavs?

cuz not sure

[hearty sky]

what is the best backpack for budget that has more space than scav backpack ?

[stark coyote]

Find a group that is doing factory runs, if they are doing night time, invest in the night vision. You can make 100k per run on factory easily

pilgrim or attack 2

40-50k

[waxen forge]

IF you want to make money just run interchange and loot PC's and tech stores

A lot less risk than factory and better loot on the map

[stark coyote]

No it isn't bud, factory is close to 0 risk when you go in with a full squad

interchange, everyone does that

[waxen forge]

Dude Factory has about 1/10 the loot as interchange

I'd never tell anybody to run factory as a money making loot map

[stark coyote]

I'm telling him it is the safest way

Kill all the scavs, pickup guns, sell guns. Easy and safe money

[waxen forge]

Agree to disagree

[stark coyote]

No, we are just arguing different points, Mine is slower, but safer. Interchange is high risk because there are a lot more players, and killa, but it can be much more profitable

Each one has its positives and negatives, up to him to choose which he wants 😛

[waxen forge]

Like I said agree to disagree. I am never going to agree with that position. You way gets you weapons. If you are rolling a 5 man then it's just 1 PMC weapon and the weapons from the scavs. Factory has 1 safe and no other loot to speak of.

Interchange has dozens of weapon crates, hardware items, PC's and tech stores as well as meds.

[long spear]

you can make more money faster on reserve than on interchange tbh

[waxen forge]

Easier to move around without being detected and time to loot.

[stark coyote]

Interchange has weapon crates and jackets, they can spawn m4s and keys XD

[bold kernel]

wow

does the wiki

have no verification process?

[stark coyote]

Sorry, i meant to say factory, not interchange 😛

[grave helm]

@glad bridge if u want 2 earn money go play Scav interchange. Loot dead bodies, kill scavs and extract -> ez 50+ k per raid and doesnt take 15min

[stark coyote]

Scavs stop spawning after the 15 minute mark on factory, wait till then, run around and loot. Extract before 7 minutes, super scavs spawn at 6-7

[waxen forge]

Ok

Sure

[bold kernel]

super scavs?

[waxen forge]

You do you. I will continue to recommend what makes sense to me.

[long spear]

if you want to earn money do reserve no backpack loot runs ez 300-800k per raid in 10 min or less

[stark coyote]

Super scavs is an exaggeration, but they can occasionally spawn with slightly better gear than the normal scavs

People just like to call them that

[pseudo mural]

raiders always flank me

[stark coyote]

Also, there is more than enough scavs spawning on factory to fill the backpacks of a 5 man squad, so it's not like you run out of weapons to loot

[pseudo mural]

it's weird, and they run in packs like scavbosses

[stark coyote]

@glad bridge if you really want to make money, figure out the flea market.

[severe beacon]

@glad bridge do your quests

tarkov wiki

[silver dome]

guysd

how do i refill my factory key uses

[severe beacon]

you get a new key

[pseudo mural]

you don't

[silver dome]

someone said

u can

[stark coyote]

lol

[silver dome]

refill it

[long spear]

you can at jaegar

[silver dome]

fuck

[long spear]

for one mre and 3 lunchboxes

[stark coyote]

Nope, just have to buy a new one

[long spear]

its a trade

[silver dome]

i havent unlocked jaeger

[pseudo mural]

sucks don't it

lol

[long spear]

you guys should stop giving people wrong advice in this channel lol

[severe beacon]

that key is cheap af

its lik3 6k rub

[pseudo mural]

You cannot refill it as a new player, you have to unlock jaeger

which means you cannot refill it.

for like, 80% of us in here

[long spear]

so then specify that and dont just say its impossible

[stark coyote]

I'm looking at jaeger now... You can't refill it, you can trade for a new one

[long spear]

its a refill

[stark coyote]

Ah, i see now, it requires a key for the trade. Derp

Also @severe beacon the factory exit key is 140-160k XD

[severe beacon]

i got mine for 6k rubs

[stark coyote]

Sure we are talking about the same key?

[severe beacon]

you can just do porta potty jump

either way

[stark coyote]

Lol, we are talking about factory exit key, not the factory zone key

You are talking about a key used on the customs map, this is a key on factory map

[long spear]

the key used on customs and the key for factory extract are the same key

its just called "factory key"

[stark coyote]

Then how dafuq he get one for 6k when they lowest they have dropped in weeks is like 100k xD

[silver dome]

haha

just realised

u can sell it on flea

and the uses restart

oof nvm seems like i bamboozled some dude hard

1/50 uses and he bought it for 150k

[thin sparrow]

Guys can you buy Fuel for the hideout on the flea market?, not unlocked the market yet

[long spear]

yes

[thin sparrow]

cheers

[long spear]

its not too expensive either

[thin sparrow]

Is it just Gasoline/Petrol?

[long spear]

theres a 60 unit fuel tank and a 100 unit one

it doesnt specify the type of gas

[thin sparrow]

ahh ok its fuel in a Tank, got it thanks

[supple oak]

how much would a factory exit key 50/50 be worth

[stark coyote]

It looks like all of the keys on the market are listed around 160k, and it doesn't show their durability, so i doubt you could get much more than that

[bold kernel]

it doesn't show durability?

how come

[waxen forge]

Inspect them to see durability. Same for Fuel tanks to see capacity

[bold kernel]

^

[stark coyote]

👍

Still, around 160k. A lot of the 160s are full durability

[bold kernel]

yeah just got one

[stark coyote]

Better option is to use it 😛

50 factory runs will net you anywhere from 5-10 mill 😛

[bold kernel]

i'm probably gonna use it for shotcut more than anything

and i have to remember to check durability

cuz i don't have jaeger yet

[stark coyote]

Fair lol

[supple oak]

but factory isn;t easy atleast for me a complete begginer and should i store keys rather than meds in alpha pack?

[bold kernel]

uh

you shouldn't store anything in your alpha

[stark coyote]

Factory is super easy if you run a 5 man squad, pop into one of the lfg factory channels, they can prolly teach you a bit

[bold kernel]

you should store stuff in your inventory

but if u wanna store keys

[waxen forge]

Since you only have alpha you should only take keys in alpha if you plan to use them

[bold kernel]

get a docs bag or a keychain

if not just put into alpha for the raid

[waxen forge]

Getting a keytool or Docs case will help but alpha makes you have to choose more/

[stark coyote]

Key tool, if you have stuff to unlock, dogtag case if you plan on messin up some pmc

[bold kernel]

and take it out afterwards

[supple oak]

well i always take meds in my alpha countainer when i go pmc, and i didn't buy an expensive version so im stuck with alpha

[stark coyote]

You can store meds in it, if you find anything more valuable, just move them into your bag to make room

[bold kernel]

@supple oak you're not stuck with alpha

you can get a bigger container

with tasks

[supple oak]

how? im lvl 3 at the moment how far would it be?

[severe beacon]

lol far

[bold kernel]

extremly fucking far

but everyone has to go through this

even people who bought EOD

[long spear]

you could find someone to buy a b eta container for you, its 500k roubles at the trader

3x2 i believe

[severe beacon]

cant do it anymore

[bold kernel]

epsilon might have 1 less slot overall but it has it's uses that cannot be achieved with EOD

and kappa is just a straight upgrade

[long spear]

oh yeah thats true, he would have to post it for you on flea market

[severe beacon]

cant post it on flea

it has to be in game trade

[long spear]

you cant drop container in game

they changed that recently

[warm rover]

Is the Find parts in the moding section broken ? I want to find the parts that I don't have, but instead it lists all of the parts of the gun, even the ones I have

[severe beacon]

it has to be in a back pack

then you can

i think

[waxen forge]

Go to flea. Examine all the weapons and weapon parts you can. Everything. Then when you "modify preset' you will be able to see all the parts that fit it.

[long spear]

@warm rover you have to have the base part of the gun and then click assemble on the preset page and it will look up what you miss

[waxen forge]

He cannot find parts if he hasn't examined them yet

Why I said to go to flea and examine it all

[median spoke]

Is there a way to partially crouch? Because some angles are to high to see thru when crouching and to low when standing?

[warm rover]

I did examine the parts, The point is it lists all the parts that I have and don't have

I want it to list the parts I want to buy, not even the ones I don't need

[compact basin]

@median spoke Hold C and then use the MWheel

[median spoke]

Sweet

Thank you

[compact basin]

Welcome. Also, I suggest you do #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to see the entire discord

[waxen forge]

There is a box that says something like include parts I have ...check or uncheck to exclude or include what you have.

[long spear]

or you can just do what i already answered for you to

i wasnt aware of a box you can check however

[warm rover]

Where's that box I can check ?

[waxen forge]

Its when you go to buy the parts

[warm rover]

Yeah but assemble does assemble what you have in stash, i can't assemble what I don't have lol

[waxen forge]

There is a choice to buy parts

[long spear]

no execute if you do what i said it works

[warm rover]

It still lists everything

[long spear]

click on assemble, then click the weapon, and then it will show you the parts you are missing from the current preset to assemble

if you attempt to assemble a preset and are missing parts, it shows you the missing parts and gives you the option to buy them

i know for a fact this still works just tried it

[warm rover]

Oooh now I see, it didn't pop up that window before,

Now I don't understand why it lists only one item of that specific part instead from all of the people offering in the flea market

[long spear]

its a new feature, its still buggy and unoptimized

[stark coyote]

I'm not a fan of it tbh... It always wants me to make barters for the parts, or take euros or dollars xD

[long spear]

it shows you the cheapest listing as of right now

or is supposed to

[stark coyote]

They need to add a rouble only filter option 😛

[long spear]

try changing it to quantity from 1 instead of 0

[warm rover]

Yeah, not everyone has dollars lol

[long spear]

in flea market options

sometimes that works

[stark coyote]

Is there an easier way to get money into a money case than dragging and dropping it onto the case? XD

Like ctrl clicking?

[sturdy snow]

where can you find flashdrives easily?? i only know customs really well, so its been a challenge

[compact basin]

For customs: big red office area

[long spear]

the only consisten place to find flash drives is customs at the blue van

if you try to find flash drives just sticking out of a computer it could take forever

[sturdy snow]

wheres the blue van again?

[long spear]

the blue van is near the zb 1011 exit

[sturdy snow]

ohhhh okok

[long spear]

theres a bunch of blue gas tanks and its behind those

once you cross through a hole in the wall going past gas station trying to get to zb exit

look for the blue gas tanks right in front of u

[sturdy snow]

well are there other maps that have quicker spawns that i should run for?

[long spear]

no customs is the only reliable flash drive spawn ive heard of

[sturdy snow]

oh ok

Thank you!

[long spear]

yeah np, remember they stick out of the front of the computer dont try searching the computer for them

[sturdy snow]

yes im aware thank you much sir

[long spear]

i actually found two at once in that van when i was on that task

[sturdy snow]

ugh lucky!

[solid gulch]

oh thank god i got my stupid "plant a camera at brutal" quest done

[broken briar]

oke

[blissful quarry]

if im going as a snipey boi, what are good sidearms to bring that wont break the bank?

[stark coyote]

I've heard good things about the five seven, that'll run you about 40k for just the gun

Glock 18c with drum mag is a decent full auto choice, but you need to sink money into the good bullets

Honestly though, you might be better off bringing a cheap smg on your sling

[blissful quarry]

ive heard of those but im more looking into the budget category, while still having the possibility to kill someone

[stark coyote]

HK mp5 kurz, run you around 17k, has low recoil, decent gun all around

It's not a pistol though, so it will take your sling slot

[blissful quarry]

thats a good idea i will keep that in mind

[stark coyote]

Glock 17 with a drum mag is an option, that will run you about 22k

[blissful quarry]

looking at the cheaper pistols like the m9 and p226, the AP ammo is really expensive

[stark coyote]

Yea, unfortunately, the weapons aren't really good, it's all about the ammo you are using

[strange mural]

veprkm is a nice choice

very very budget

[unique willow]

five seven is an incredible weapon

[strange mural]

but expensive

for a pistol

[stark coyote]

What is your prey frost?

[unique willow]

just took the customs boss group with that on an open area

[stark coyote]

Scavs or players?

[strange mural]

you shouldnt be aiming for only hunting scavs though

but to be prepared to take on players in case

[blissful quarry]

ive been doing woods for a task to kill scavs, i have 4 scav kills and about 6 pmc kills, that map is insane

[bold kernel]

@strange mural i see what you meant now 😡

[strange mural]

with what

[bold kernel]

ping

[golden geyser]

How much is the Izhmash AKM dust cover (6p1 0-1)?

[bold kernel]

i got killed by a guy

when i was behind cover

and it was delayed by like 300ms

[stark coyote]

If your concern is scavs, you can get the cheap ammo, if you're confident in landing face shots

[strange mural]

not much at all acc

[blissful quarry]

i can kill the scavs with my primary, the pistol is 100% for players
