Oh I have another question

Sweet

Good
sell em
factory is 50 i think
iirc labs are going for around 200k
Lab is one factory is 50
Maybe 250k
depends heavily
woods is so weird to navigate
yea
I see
totally
u won't be touching lab for a while
Which ammo should I use for each gun?
!wiki ballistics
Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.

study this a bit
Veritas' app is also good to compare bullets
just imagine ur playing tetris
do you guys use the vendors for extra stash slot?
naw
Why is eft not on steam???
because steam takes a large cut and theyd rather do their beta by themselves
Oh thanks @strange mural
30% aint a joke
Only scrubs use Steam. EGS launcher is where it's at
It says its a preorder tho on the website
ok cool
You're pre ordering for the final release of the game, however, you get access to the beta
Ooooh
and they have their own window stash
I might get it
and u can put ur stuff in their window stash
btw
i never done it
there might be a sale on new years
not sure if ill have a good time and be ravaged by pmcs
but i seen streamer doing it
what's veritas app?
always
lol
great
battle buddy
the game is before VAT btw
I'm currently having stash space issues so I have a ton of rewards that I haven't claimed lol
kk i think ill get it soon
@knotty bridge Battle Buddy
^
so when u buy it it would be like ยฃ10 more
wtf is battle buddy
!wiki battle buddy
basically what salted is doing clase
@fathom narwhal So I basically never accept the quest and just store stuff over there?
ye
That's pretty clever but sounds like something that might bite you in the ass later on
You can store as many rewards as you want. From what I know anyway
pretty sure they will patch it out
when the game is released
but for now
u can use it
Yup though I don't know how they would go about patching it. Let's say like in my situation. My stash is pretty fucked at the moment. I can't accept any even if I wanted to
maybe like how they do with ragman
where when you buy/sell stuff from flea
u cant use his stash
do u guys think we'll beat the record this year
Think Ima start using that
Over 50% of my gametime is on inventory management ._.
Like.... right now
Not even tetris BR smh my head
cp record
o
Standard edition stash memes btw
hah
something something alpha container
yes
yes
i'm standard edition and my inventory management is just fine i can screenshot ๐
guess who's upgarding their edition next sale
What kind of Laser can i use for my AK-74M Ive tried to link search but dont get much
@bold kernel do it.
I might upgrade to EoD next blackfriday. We'll see
25%*
o gg
30% for black friday
I'll go as far as to spend 60$ total on the game
really?
what will that get me?
@crisp urchin what's the point for waiting for another black friday if u can just get it on new years 25% off
wait 25
rip math
lol
How do I split ammo or money?
hold crtl
I mean yes. Who knows if I'll even be playing by then
Thx
and drag it to an empty spot @tribal cove
What laser can i put on my AK-74M?
Depends on where you're located because of VAT
Standard, naturally
na doesn't have vat
thought I'll try out the game before I go full cash money

^
Oh right, 'mericans don't give a fuck about that VAT shit
Woah.
but yea
it's really interesting how watching better players, they use their health as like, a resource. They see health completely differently than I see it.
Is there anyway to better understand that?
Upgrade to a bigger brain
other than playing more
I did, it broke
What laser mounts can i attach to my AK-74M?
No I'm kidding it's like that with every game
i literally don't know what you even meant by that? @pseudo mural
what kind of resource
Kebab, like
If you ever played MOBAs you get that
@bold kernel wiki
^^
sorta like a rogues energy in WoW or something?
@bold kernel any laser really, just need a handguard with rails
Uh
ok
i never played your american mmo subscription based games?
linked search the gas tube to get handguards
ya more critical than that but
0 combo means... 0 combo
they're willing to risk health to gain position
i just assume u mean league lul
Yeah that's just game knowledge I assume
I dunno how else to explain it
They hear the gun, they know how much damage it deals to their current armor
i understand you
I don't think us scrubs posses that knowledge quite yet
ran into a five man as a duo
four down 
but as soon as you will, you'll probably start thinking like that
@strange mural oof m8.
snutri, I took out a 3 man last night solo and felt like I was a king
dude. hunter is a beast
Are Zarya granades any useful?
hunter op
Chuck a zarya in and they won't be able to see shit
I tapped one from the road block next to smugglers rock
zaryas are nice
Should I start carrying a couple with me?
nooot really generally
the other two pushed me, I ran back to the white hut thingy, took one out on one side, turned around and put two thru the other guy
Selling them seems a little more tempting
if you go geared i suggest you run a few nades
suuuper lucky
I've been hoarding like 8.
well fuck me i didn't check my bag before killing scavs :)
you can buy em from prapor.. 2
I would run nades not really stuns or flashes

hey guys
easy 600k @bold kernel
time to go chuck some nades
is it worth it to level up recoil?
i mean obviously its not efficient throwing nade 24/7
but im not rushing my strength level
@silver dome depends if you want to spend a lot of money and time on it
it is a huge gain but a massive time sink
probably a dozen million and more than fifty hours? from what ive seen
thats just a wild estimation
i can google how long it takes
sure
and 12 millionw orth of ammo?
like running with car battery for strength
just be a mosinling
you dont need recoil skill for that
mosins where it's at
and u can kill them youtubers
yeah
so it would shoot like a laser?
Invest in op mosin ammo and just one shot everyone
^
there is little recoil to it
i want it not to move at all
this guys is a mosinlin
that wont happen
;D
I pretty much only use mosins
this levelings hit aint worth it
No vest, no armor and no helmet. Why? Just loot from the dead bodies you kill :)
since there are wipes
7n1+mosin=boomboom.
lol?
u mean snb
u can level up
7n1 is effective too
but this wipe is going to be early
snb is super expensive
snb doesnt one shot chest
i dont know of anyone that runs it instead of 7n1
7n1 will take you with just a chest shot right?
i take the 7n1 and dont bother trying for headsdhots, just shoot center mass
no servers are matching right now
but he is standing still
kinda no point, it takes another half a second to a second to line up a headshot
vs just going for the chest
(on long range shots while they're moving)
and even then
guys
bullet drop
paca only protects from scavs
i run paca+ssh68 to protect from scavs like snutri is saying
If I shoot a player scav do AI scavs get pissed?
yes
as a scav yea
!ammo
Oh
then run something with good ammo
if you shoot first
he has to hit you though
if your a player scav and kill scavs they get mad
but as a pmc it doesn't matter
scavs will KOS you
also apparently the anger is only area based
So if I'm at dorms on customs just minding my own business and I see a player scav I should think twice before I shoot
In this clip, how did I take damage before hearing the shots? [obviously a dumb mistake not to check that room and laser kekw]
it is snutri
so if you move far the scavs wont insta rage
if you shoot a scav on customs
sniperscav near the hole in the wall to factory will not aggro you
ya
I always kill player scavs regardless
I learned my lesson
@bold kernel subsonic rounds :d
^
never trust a player scav
unless u queue up with them
and never queue up with randoms
Lmao
most likely a bug @bold kernel
i literally kill everything i see
You can duo scav?
thats what ur supposed to do
Aha oke, thank you
ya can do 4 person scav
and 5 man as pmc
Woah.
friends and I regularly do
same
Sounds unfair
its k
nah
sure right until you run into a 5 man team on customs with 750k kits each
EFT is unfair
just a fact of the game
so what do you guys recommend running as standard vest + helmet? or do you not run it at all?
Really puts "think before you shoot" to mind
I run the 6m armored vest thingy?
and the ssh is a good value helmet
and a ssh
you mean the AVS?
i dont remember the name of the T4 armored vest thing
ya
just...remember you have it on
and don't trade for a better non-tactec rig
like a moron
cough
@strange mural What are some good value armored rigs to run with an ssh?
i think ragman sells some
but if bigbrain do market research
the prices fluctuate
also, if you're on a mission turning in bags, empty the bags first, the trader will take all of your stuff in them
My ragman is level 1 :(
generally you dont want anything lesser than 30 durability
Does armor strength have an impact on durability?
I mean
Durability on armor strength
yeah my ragman is lvl 1 as well, do you recommend upgrading the vendors or just investing in stash size?
if you can get ragman to level 2, or peacekeeper for 1x m133, you can get the AVS i think
Vendors
always upgrade your traders
AVS is very nice
AVS is good
avs is good
m2 is good
its pretty expensive from what I can see haha 1M spent on ragman? thats all my networth!
tactec is thicc and expensive but very good value
ronald you can buy and sell back
I have 3 tactecs from the dudes I killed last night
only make like less than 200k loss
;P
you guys are clever as fuck
I cant about shit like that after a full day of work
basically wiki is god.
always ask here before you do something
is throwing nades a good way to level up strength?
i was gonna just go in with a backpack full of stuns
rip ram
not really kenny
6k
oo
its very incredibly expensive
not really
costs tens of millions for max level
compared to the other grenades
i only need half a level
bruh
how do all pmcs throw grenades like a bitch
they were literally trained for this situatio
yes it is

pretend its atennis ball
i can tell you it isnt as easy as cod makes it seem
is there any place I can check for a Dealer leveling guide?
which one should I go for first, etc
i can give you a tldr
either sell to them passively
or buy their most expensive item
and sell it back
i mean, they're not that hard to throw, atleast current gen it's basically a baseball
hard to aim though
yeah or throw far
ill literally lob a grenade anywhere
ya
pmc throw it like a btch
try and throw a nade prone boys
Sounds impossible
How long does it take for email transfer? My brother bought the game for me, but its just left at "the transfer has been initiated". Is it not instantaneous?
that's what the m203 is for
@faint imp #news-setup / #521628660298678283 to unlock the whole discord
Its been two hours ๐ข
and there is #community-support
ye
ah
support took ~3 days to respond for me
lol my support contact just kept telling me my account was locked due to suspicious activity
and was like "that's me...trying to purchase your game"
and he kept copy+pasting his response
until I tried a different support person who helped me lol
Mine was "You will have to use another credit card" lol
-_- thats dumb lol
haha I wish that had been my problem :/ I guess they locked my entire account down when my card was like "nah man, this Russian site is sketchy"
My credit card went through for the inital .16 cent deposit, then declined it on fraud alert for the actual purchase. So i tried my Debit card, never got the verification amount deposited, so that didn't work. THen i used Paypal with the original credit card and it worked fine.
i suggest using PayPAl if possible
PayPal also triggered it as fraud on my end, but I have heard it worked for most people
yea.. when i see some off purchases made in Moscow next week i'll know why haha
i love infinate matching for scav runs
Well @tall cipher isnt live game support
nono I mean their 24/7 live support, used it twice and was speaking to them instantly
OH! No. Where's that at?
since my car is a military credit union card
it's the payment processing company, I forget their name
it wouldn't work with xsolla
I doubt they could help with account tranfer issues though, no?
@faint imp This is the support email : support@battlestategames.com
Already sent! โค๏ธ lol I am trying everywhere
We have tech support on the modmail, but it's 11pm in europe. ๐
they helped me with my account problem, can't promise anything
Thanks everyone, maybe it will just transfer on its own somehow. lol โค๏ธ
no worries

โค๏ธ thanks brethren!
Yw
@faint imp you are wanting to change the email address linked to the account?
Yessir
huh
wtf
why in veritas 2 thicc box
only scav raiders
Early Sunday morning, before heading out to some family events, I decided to load up a Factory raid during the pre-wipe (lol at original "pre-wife" typo) event where all the maps contained Raiders. I'm fairly confident against the bots in Factory, so being off-stream and not ...
look
Veritas oof
Yeah it takes 2 weeks to complete, it's a security measure. It would say that to your brother when he started the process @faint imp
That's an event video
Yes pre wipe event
Oh damn it's madikaz
LOL wow that sucks. Well I will try it in two weeks!
Where they add raider to all maps
Yes
Luka
is it worth it to learn it
there's better ones tho

i wanna try it
Might just cancel it and play on the email he used lol
i wanna kill scav raiders yoink their armor
You can still use it etc, just takes time to complete, I did it myself you see @faint imp
fuck interchange
I wouldnt try to convince him lol
Why of damn @feral gorge? Did I miss something? ๐
Nah just first time I see ya type mate!
Welp news to me ay
Really? I'm in here daily lurking, stalking...

Always
Yea that sounds kinda creepy
Wait
Oh

Soo I know why Delta here always then kekw
It's just like hide and seek, but you don't know you're playing ๐
@feral gorge what does that supposed to mean lul
Man I'm I've been in here helping new players
And spreading veprkm is love and life

Adar > Vepr now tho
Yeah just banter guys, was just checking in and saw the Q about the email. TTYL LYLT
since M855A1
so i got the hera arms CQR tactical grip and the 6 inch and in the compatible it says it will fit on my ak but when i try to put it on it says its not compatible with it, anyone knows why?
@loud wagonthis is intended
Only goes on m4 HK and ash12
It says it does just because of the rail

on bullshit quest, can you kill scavs before you plant the items or will it fail the quest?
No scav murder at all
okay so none before or after
Can kill PMC
For the duration of this quest you are only allowed to kill PMC's, not any Scavs (including bosses)
Did any of yall just get clapped at dome playing with a 3 stack?
Or rather half an hour ago?
I always insure my stuff is that ok ?
@rose echo just remember: birdwatching goes both ways
@warm rover yeah i recommend it
you get a lot of stuff back and insurance isnt really that pricy
i got a fully modded HK back from mail today
yeah recently I get more than half of the stuff back
2lazy2jzToday at 5:14 PM
you okay Beniama ?
mine does NOT look like that
My inventory is completely full and I need help deciding what I dont need
kinda new to the game
so it takes a bit to figure out what you need
What's relatively cheap and efficient armor btw?
the AVS is fairly cheap
anyone wanna join the call and help
And helmet wise? @pseudo mural
SSH is T3
its the best helmet you can buy at the begining
Alright
and about as good as the more expensive versions you cant even buy at the beginning
level 3 armor and high riccochet chance
Thanks yall
paca doesn't really protect against anything but scavs though
If you still have trouble extracting raids I can only recommend the paca
Yeah and that's the important bit
Come on what Player can't pen level 4 armor in like 2 shots?
I guess people using 9mm ap
But that's not a lot of players
SSSh-95 is the helmet right?
difference getting 1 tapped by a player in the chest vs getting 2 shot, 2 shot gives you a 5% chance right lol
Can someone please help me with my inventory? I have a whole additional stash worth of insurance items that I can't fit, I'm not sure whatto keep and what to get rid of, I will pay 25k to whoever helps me.
can you post a screenshot?
im not the best for it ^^
ah ok
sure
is there anyone i can talk to today to figure out my eod situation?
@solemn kite accept the #521628660298678283 to unlock discord (you did it right when you have a blue name) and then you can check out #community-support
i never full auto
is that bad
Full auto is crutch 
no
i dont know where to direct this question but idk why people tell me the sv98 is trash and sometimes to drop it
I think because it used to have a firing delay, but I think that is gone now
Or they just donโt like it. I used it a bunch and itโs good
Yep
its only like 20 k
Itโs like a mosin but better and cheaper
Never used it before, sounds fun tho
@tall cipher
I like m700 better but itโs good
@warm terrace
Should be all set now, thanks @ancient zephyr
perfect thankyou
What's the best way/food to increase my energy off raid ?
I just keep what I find. Also eat/drink at the start of raid instead of in hideout so you level metabolism
Most of the canned food gives around 50 energy
hey
If you are really low the mreโs/lunchboxes give like 70-80
anyone able to run me through?
@raven blade
yes?
Need to do #521628660298678283 so you can see all of Discord
Do #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to see all the channels
there we go ๐
I am like 40-50 what's the most cheap food to buy ? economic
Run a scav raid and if you take long enough it'll be back up by the time you are done....if not fully almost
Just click the food category, it sorts by cheapest for you, look for something canned
Yes, Iโd tell you but Iโm in raid
yes @warm rover the kochetov
@bold kernel I already have that with the base scope, I want to put another one, the pu 3.5 is quite wiggly
@gray mountain 
:REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE:
Best modding tip. Upgrade workbench in Hideout. Examine every weapon part you can find on the Flea. Use Edit preset on a weapon (right click...edit preset) and then you can mod away.

Guys, to level up my strenght, while overweight I should, Walk, Sprint or Jump?
Walk
lol someone is selling this weird shit on the flea market 
Throw nades
ok ty
buy it
and i thought my hunter with a usp-1 looks ugly ๐
Cool keep it in #weapon-modding
Not sure how this helps any beginners
is it possible to find a keytool? i have way too many keys :/
can u tell me which items to sell
yes goki
good chance to find in a marked room
customs
found many there
"Chance" to find in marked room
Don't know about "good"
just checked flea market keytool goes for +590,000 o.O
lol
:x
im old ๐
Keough94 sorry
hmm which one to add lol
till you get box mags into the mosin dont talk to me
Welp, i finally caved, addicted to this game, bought EoD
so many fucking hatchlings on reserve ๐ก
Lol, i keep seeing them on interchange the other night
i killed 3 in one raid, that was weird
how do i rotate items in my inv?
press r while dragging the item
thanks
killed 25 scavs inside Oli today they just kept coming
and two pmc's
kill 25 scavs on interchange done in one run
why do I always have to save preset in order to assemble or find parts... :/
ive never really noticed it
i only notice it when playing solo
@warm rover not sure what you mean exactly
i know
@warm rover you have a gun already made and have to save it to make a 2nd?
that doesnt make sense
of course you have to make a preset to find parts for that preset, it doesnt exist before you save it
but once you save it it should always be there to open back
up
you can
yeah you can
Worth using 95 round mags?
you have to have a setup you want, then you save that setup for finding parts for it later
its not stupid =/
not sure what you mean
like when u kill someone and get their gun out you should be able to see the cost of that weapon without having to make a preset
In fact, you want to see how much all those parts cost before you are sure you want to have that preset, clear and simple.
im pretty sure you can just delete the preset
you can
if its not to your price liking
its just annoying that u have to do that
that would be more convenient but i dont think that will change
if they were to do that they might as well keep going and just show u the price on anything in ur stash
Showing traders price while picking things in the modding screen would be nice
doubt that will change.... a lot of things in this game would potentially be nice lol
Yep
half the fun is the learning
They did say they are working on improving presets though
that fun to learn but its hard to learn LoL
do you need ever need to own more than 1 paracord?
this shit needs to be fixed
if you take your paracord out of ur secure container for a more valuable item
which is 100% worth doing
you will have to buy another if die
insure the paracord
ezpz
@opal jungle honestly, its kinda good bcz you know that armor does actually work
alright, i just ask because ive found 2 now
what rounds were you usin
pistol
onto a shitty level 3 helmet
jeez
9 shots
im more short on space than cash
9 shots
probably not a lvl 3 helm then
is the sound in the hideout changed, it has more echo for me than yesterday
whats good armor
you can turn the sound off entirely if you want
EU Lvl 6 Scrub Player looking for a mentor to duo customs with (quests, learning the map fully) ๐
what you mean by good? like cost efficient or useful
theres nothing to fix, thats working as intended lol... you need better ammo
this is late in the wipe, people have better gear
cost efficient and useful
or just shoot their limbs
something under 80k
@bold kernel im down
6b5-15 is good and cheap
@long spear Duo India ๐
Interchange
Interchange is soo complex for me.., it's a giant market, confusing directions
But dozens of weapon crates, 4 tech stores, Hideout material in Ollie, and other task items
Plus 3 unlocked med stations
Something is wrong with tarkov
I just spawned and died to a PMC but it says I killed 4 Scavs wtf
It's a known bug reporting a prior raid stats
ah okay
Also with the quests it asked to kill 5 usec, I killed 3 but it only registered 2 
@warm rover that means you killed 2 usec and one bear
no I saw they were all usec
how should i do the mechanic quest in factory to fix the panels? just go naked with a toolset in my secure and try to get lucky with not being interrupted?
yes ^ xD
yup
alright ๐ฌ
there's a spawn that'll put you in front of one of the panels
so you can hope to be lucky ๐
im also wondering what is the best way to do the prapor mission in factory, ive died once with the item and just got it back from customs
i keep getting killed in the most retarded fucking ways
i peek the dude , shot him twice , he turn around , peaks INTO A WALL and 1 taps me
ok tarkov
I found these 2 keys... do I keep them or sell them ?
I mean are they worth keeping
I haven't been to shoreline yet
not sure , sanitarium arnt that expensive , i think
they are like 150-300k

Filter by item and see price. Then look up on WIKI and see if they are task related for tasks you need. Decide if you want $ or tasks.
Ah I see they are for quest, will keep em then xD
how often does the game wipe
whenever there are big updates
With big content patches. Last wipe was a couple months ago...Last wipe before that was 9 months
next one is three months
Next wipe probably won't be for a few months
or so
Wipes are good
ok thanks
that is the estimation that we have right now but yeah wipes good
@spice hedge oh hello btw

does the lucky scav junkbox go up in $ ?
hey ๐
@warm rover might just be the general price changes that traders do
Is reshade banned now btw seeing that Important scrolling bar on launcher
about it being related to blocked loading files
not that I use it just curious I didn't find any post related to that least on quick search
yes
its banned
got banned a few days ago after the developer QnA afaik
it was a cheat after all
actual reshading is banned
but it still exists in the form of nvidia filter.
essentially does the same thing
ban that one too
it's not that simple.
because it's a filter.
it doesn't modify game files.
it's like changing your monitor colors/sharpness
^
Its pos pricessing
