Whatever floats your boat
Therapist>Skier>mechanic

that for hideout
bam
!wiki hideout
Duh
is there anyway to sell from scav box directly
anyone wanna help me im having a really bad day in terms of gear
@silver dome put it up on the flex market and you should make more money
na lol
fuuuuck i was having one of my best raids so far but i got killed as i was looting the 4th body :/
ah well, at least i'm only missing 1 scav kill
though i lost a decent loadout
Do you guys use shotgun?
Only when the tasks makes me
i did wait quite a bit but i was in a pretty shitty spot so the idea was to quicc loot and get out lol
Sometimes you just have to leave it.
fair enough though, i'm happy about how i played so
sold everything in my scav boxes lmao
I cant see the voice channels and I had to rejoin the server for some reason
I don't remember leaving
how do I get access to the voice comms ?
uncheck and recheck if you did, restart discord if it doesnt work, message a mod
any reason to deck out an akm over an ak103. isnt the ak103 the newer model with better recoil stats and better parts?
zhukov stock is one of the best stocks?
i just killed a guy with it, and sold it part by part, so idk
Yo whenever I try to start the game I get a black screen and the loading icon in my mouse forever
-49% recoil
But it does nothing
Trading with a scav is fun:)
Any help?
i absolutely LOVE when the game freezes when im trying to exit the inventory because im getting shot at
oooh i love being victim of scav on scav violence
is there anything i can do about the stutter
support chat might be better for technical questions.
Stutters in 2019 no way man
What are stutters
@obtuse nymph even on 2080 ti this game freezes all the time
Lol
what that weird kid in the back of your class used to do when he got cornered by bullies
i just have ti
Rog strix 2070
not super?
Got on first release so no
aw, unlucky
๐ค
question
do your scav runs folks [casual flex]
@bold kernel watch out
it's gonna get deleted
cuz mods gay
It's alright
I get that this isn't the channel for that but this is the only channel I talk in :p
What I just said ^

K a p p a
The rules are in place because if you do it then everyone thinks they can
Just saying
L e g m e t a
why is no one in this discord thats lfg any good
they always come out with penis helmets and shrek armor with stock vepr
whille i have zhuk airframe and hk
lmao
yeah
wtf is shrek armor
bc im about to assist these beginners into bringing their best gear
any of the green lvl 4 armor
@silk laurel lies
no
well i got a question for your question
why not use zhuk
i wouldnt really recommend a beginner to bring expensive gear
he lying
also gear =/= skill
rather sell expensive gear until you learn how to make money and use budget loadouts
i have friends but they arent on when im on
I'll trade friendship for roubles
name your price
20 roubles
sounds like some quality friendship
deal

I bring mid range gear because Farming reserve as a hatchet isn't fun nor is buying and immediately losing expensive gear. I run mid range until I have to much quality gear and I want to lose it. less hatchet play and more raid exploration and fun.
dude I can teach you so much about this game, been playing for three days, I'm pretty much a vet
I don't have any friends who play this game either though
Imagine trusting randoms with your best gear on though
never gonna use this server's lfg channel
I'm confident my computer will freeze if I charge into a room to kill someone in high lvl gear.

oh lol
I trusted a player skav once, we ran around for a couple minutes until he saw that I picked up a suppressor and he killed me
I'm also confident that I've done well because I out smart my opponents and don't COD my way through Tarkov
never trusting skavs again
easiest way to outsmart any opponent is watch the flank
literally everyone flanks in a firefight
Out smart a duo
depends on battle.
any shotguns that aren't doo-doo?
They all doodoo
No
saiga 12k suppressed w drum mag
Shotgun ammo is doodoo
rip rounds
Shot guns and pistols are hellah unreliable
lzsh and zhuk w alpha
shotguns suffer for PvP.. great for scavs...
u will destroy

Never touching a pistol again tbh
weapons don't matter
difference in firerate
it's just the ammo
but the fact that shotguns themselves
are pretty ass
I'd rather do hatchet runs than pistol runs because pistols are so frustrating
doesn't rly help
@bold kernel ever tried ap ammo?
I just need some budget shotty or something, can't do my quests or key runs cause I keep getting slapped
just
get an assault rifle
some shotguns shells can kill class3/4 but the firerate really kills it in trading shots
I usually ran the Luger CGI ammo
then stop getting slapped
@deep temple veprom
bring out gear not a shotgun
Veprkm
literally run a p90
Shotguns are more expensive than veprkm anyway
13k on market. And 762 ps reliable enough.
Atlanta no.
i keep getting authorisation error when i extract as skav
and you tell him to run a p90?
@deep temple
Not a good tip for a beginner trying to learn
Way more effective than any pistol or shotty
He's asking budget... amount of ammo p90 spend... not as cheap as some other options
if you want a budget peashooter run a vityaz
Just use a vepr for a bit
Its not
is ther any way to fix authorisation error it keeps making me loss all my gear
@silk laurel that's not a beginner loadout lmao
That validay sight... you must have zero scope stutter
what are you even doing on this chat atlanta
Is this your first patch?
i just been playing since NDA
and PS best ammo for that build? @steady pilot only things I've used so far are mosin and SKS
am still very noob
no not my first patch
The verpkm is basically an sks
by far
being a beginner doesn't resolve around ingame lvl
Okay yeah you have pvp experience
I'm level 7 and still bad ๐
You can get away with less risk with decked out shit
@deep temple just don't listen to atlanta
im here in this chat bc i havent invested time into the game since the labs update and know nothing ab the game thats come since them
Level doesnt mean anything, but I don't trust someone coming in here suggesting p90 as a worthy investment to people who barely grasp the mechanics of the game
No
run it w 6b and paca
Trash
so you're giving invalid tips as a joke on #beginners-assistance ?
Lmao now we got the sks rant

and bp

whats wrong w the sks
Just wait
Less accuracy harder and more expensive to mod
WELL
Lmao
SINCE YOU ASKED
is it still sharing that out dated vepr pic?
im not gonna argue w yall over an opinion, if u suggest vepr, suggest him the vepr. when i played, the sks was better than the vepr
But a ak103 is 25-30k for an immensely better platform over a 35k trashcan opsks
yeah
Yeh hunter worth
the 101 is really good
vepr hunters are my kryptonite
VSS/VAL is nice midteir
Hunter has really good value
i hate them because they are like my only deaths
lmao theyre good ass guns
but i cant be upset
but they scare me
Vss is totally high tier
As long as you aren't going for long range
"when i played sks was better"
yeah I use vals all the tim
always a blueberry or penis helmet dude that cleans up on shoreline and gets the bodies i killed
so that is still floating around./...
Vss for 55k with super quiet 43-45 pen rounds
a val with 7n9//spp is stupid powerful within 75 meters
when i die, i dont get mad that i lose my gear, i get mad someone else gets what i have lmao
Budget wise it's good because they are like less than 80k decked out and SP-6 is at really good value
๐ ๐ ๐
do visors actually do anything btw? Like blocking the weaker end of bullets?
yeah
Yes
yea
Somewhay
Lvl 3 visor might stop pistols and shotty
Level 3 is for scavs
level 3 visors wont stop midrange rifle caliber rounds
It's literally just face armor
dan honestly a good helmet untill you get money is they 6b
level 4 visors are where shit gets good
level 4 visors are top tier because only the best rounds penetrate them
visors honestly only protect you from scavs and pistolings
is level 4 visor the one that looks like tachanka
If you arent running the better no headphone helmets ye
if you upgrade from standard to EOD do you lose all your progress and have to start over?
No
no
All comes in mail
ok ty!!!
@strange mural I only run chonk when my squadmates run helmets with ears. Its a trade off. I wear heavier more protected gear, I go first.
I really wish they made this more clear when you upgraded
Like from USPS?
russian united states postal service
lol
Just wear fort and atlyn with a 100 ergo m4 with thermal and walk ads the whole time at the front of pack in interchange. Pro strats
thermal
interchange
Works.
it doesnt lol
Penetrates
The issue?

thermals on interchange are garbage
L0l
the lighting is weird
Works the same
Reap IR
As any other map
nah. it works
Bud
The reap ir is like the best thing for interchange
Is there a chance to get into the same raid as a scav end up finding your body ? ๐
There are 2 settings
Activate red thermal
im aware
Smh
blackhot
and whitehot
delta I know how it works
it still works fine on interchagne
Its literally the same on any map
ive seen it as well. its not as helpful as youd think in the hallways
delta, what im saying is that in the mall the ambient heat makes it so there is a lot less contrast between player and wall
outside its obviously the same
What??
Just extract camp with it
inside the mall there is lower contrast
No it doesn't
does anyone want to play i just got the game
You need to play with it more or show me evidence of this
I literally play with it 247
And dont have an issue
@steady pilot #521628660298678283 #news-setup
Exfil camping is the biggest douche move
ikr
@steady pilot I use reapir's on my sa58 9/10 raids
Still havent gotten killed by ex campers
the contrast in the mall with the reapir is kinda wonky
Yes
holy shit dude
@dull cave run w me pls everyone else runs with penis helmet and vepr hunter
me niether but like later
aight
You must have really bad nvidia settings or bad pc cause I do not have an issue with heat. On white hot, everything is black besides an actual heat source, or loose items.
regardless delta, in my experience, the contrast in the halls and especially in the basement is objectively worse.
I have a fantastic pc
and I run an x34p monitor
which has excellent color
my nvidia settings are a slight bit of sharpness and a small amount of saturation
Maybe your just both retarded with bad eyesight
maybe
There is no contrast issue that is detrimental to scope except a flir. A flir is impossible to see on the map
any specific nvidia setting for tarkov?
Is there a chance to get into the same raid as a scav and end up finding your body ?
is that control panel or filter thing?
Yes @warm rover
I dont run any filters
Just need luck and its possiblr
Do the postprocess filters actually help colorblind people
Not postive
@deep temple https://youtu.be/AgANGU5MvoU?t=271
@warm rover pretty sure way it work is PMC is always fresh lobby and ScavMan is joining on existing, so if you die with mate on PMC, you can potentially join same match as Skav an help again or loot body
its in the nvidia overlay
I assume if it changes the color you are seeing then yes
any idea how much this would be worth?
150k
maybe a bit more
its only tracer from what i can see
whats in the mag @spice hedge
can i die from that ?
yeah its tracer
not much worth there
20k stock 30k handguard 40k suppressor 15k gun 25k-30k mag? 15k sight. 8k grip
Energy kills you in a few minutes
Dehydration just slowly hurts
i only got 40k so im happy with that
?
did you sell to mechanic?
always part out good guns and sell the expensive bits on the flea market
no i mean i only have 40k rubles the now
o
@dull cave ty for video, I don't speak the German but should be able to figure out
HAHAHA
go into geforce experience
in your settings, should be something like "experimental features"
"here's video none of us understand"
need to turn that on
autotrans cc's lol
anyway
turn on experimental features
bind it to whatever
go in game
slap that bind
hit "filters"
then apply those settings from the video
adjust as needed
i personally sharpen it a bit more and reduce the sat a bit
( you dont need them tho unless medically an issue )
hush delta
you dont need to play the game
or help new people
nobody needs to do anything, save for eat and drink
Is there anything special about snb other than pen
not to say you shouldnt
Cant remember
I dunno I played night first time and man literally hid in hole, popped up with flashlight and melted me... it was pitch black for me so I was very confused
@steady pilot i did it ๐
@strange mural
7n1 > SNB
I know
what does this transfer means?
you have a quest item in your inventory
if you die
you lsoe it
if you put it in quest inv stash
what drink gives most hydration for $
what if i transfer it?
But im just thinking up strats for tarkov shooter headshots
you wont lose it on death, or have it to complete quest with
@strange mural that would be a good idea then
cant i put it in my stash and than in my container?
@deep temple if you're using filters to get an advantage at night time you're getting it for the wrong reason. There are night vision devices for 30k.
goki there are two inventories
items, and quest items
they cant mix
@strange mural yea, so it would be good for headshot quest
if you fuck up an 'rax em, you get another chance
oh no I don't want advantage I just want pretty game @steady pilot I just need to accept that I can't see at night lol
@rocky ocean it's just a quest inventory. You can keep it safe in off raid stash while you figure out how you're gonna plant that thing on factory for 30 seconds
aahh ok
I'm new (lv 3) looking for some raid buddies. Preferably Factory or Customs.
so you can take it out to play raids without losing
yes
@rocky oceanif you die with it in in raid stash you lose it and have to start over
thanks kebab
then you can do your quest later once you put it back in inventory
got it thanks !
โค๏ธ
So keep it off-raid till ready for factry
@rocky ocean I suggest finding someone willing to help you out
that quest can be difficult for new players
having someone watch your back is very useful
just wait till last 10 mins xD
thank again to everyone for help
@rocky ocean go to one of the LFG factory voice chats

Probably not worth it lul
thats what im a bit afraid of tbh
i'd much ratehr do this quest with someone i know
idk
@bold kernel why would they?
i dont know anyone 
@dull cave just to be dicks?
join a factory channel
lmao i know everyone here pretty much
im talking a channel here?
yeah, me too
teamkilling doesnt happen in this discord much
the mods do their best to stop it
their idea of doing their best can be bypassed with a proxy
uh
yes
get a new phone number?
Not worth it
its an excellent deterrant
goki
this time i dissmantle a gun and put it in my backpack because of space i put it back together after extraction and realised its a akm vpo 209 again ๐
ignore this dude
just join a channel
or #pvp-lfg
say you are doing the quest
and do it!
do that if u gay
if ur not gay lets do it tomorrow together
and find 3 more ppl
to help us
i wouldn't kill playerscavs if they didn't kill me
i see akm vpo 209 is cheap :x
Cause its bad
I'm tempted to run class 5 armor and a fully modded 209 now
these mags bad on m4?
Why would thet be
Just less ergo
i use backup mount with reflex sigh, will ergo affect it?
have you looked at it snutri?
@royal vale what do you mean
@strange mural its a giant brick of metal
its heavy
its long
its wide
Ergo does currently not slow down backup sight ads @royal vale
im not sure on how true that is
so it's perfect mag for me, i think...
sure
The canted sights act like 100 ergo ads
interesting
Its snap aim
Hence why meta nerds deck out their m4s with it
lol
With a shitty valday scope
valday aint shitty
It has the worst frame drop out of all scopes
does it now
And the mils are ass
Cause they just hipfire
pointfire bb
i point fire with a fal out to 35-45m
but thats becaues i run a reapir, and a backup canted sight is super claustrophobic.
I'm gonna say doubt and might consider that viable barely with a laser on
66 recoil fal
got my handy ls321 on
level 25 ar and level 30 recoil control
it works for me
Yikes.
So you went and sat in a corner dumping ppsh mags
Unless your able to snap shot with M4's I usually push 60 rnd full auto and just pre-fire/spray ppl down with pure fire rate.
Stronger scopes hit performance and prefer efficient guns that run m80 mostly and allow slower aimmed long range combat.
Cant wait till they nerf point fire and lasers
any sherpa willing to play with me?

admittedly I don't have much real steal experience
but point firing is pretty damn accurate

toxicc


Yeah, I'd say point firing is pretty close to IRL
You can hit a moving dinner-plate target reliably up to around 5 meters
Dont think we were questioning the validity of 5m
๐ฌ
yeah but
thats because its a gun
it shoots straight
you gotta know how to point the gun at 50m
Do it now
do what now
correct
Oreally.
that is what they are designed to do
I c
Bullet shoot in line 
boolet shoot in parabola
I one tapped no scoped a pmc and got my first key ever today
Is the Rb psp2 any good?
Oh so they dont shoot straight
Anyone need help btw? I'm finally online
not sure
Got it
Iโm seeing 2 mill but I feel like thatโs not right
is the adar any good?
@rocky ocean absolutely
So I just made 2 mill?
im playing with it but idk how to feel about it
Lmfao
and put it up!
That dude must be piiiissseeddd
lol
fact that it wasnt containered is waky
where was he when he died?
was he looting something?
what level was he
@rocky ocean I'll break it down for you. ahem it just a single fire m4.
lmao
nice
Thereโs a fee to put things up?
ye
How can i get lvl 2 ragman? I mean there is not a lot i can buy from him and not a lot i can sell to him. Is there anything i can buy from flea market and sell him for more or something?
@crimson granite helmets bags rigs glasses
@crimson granite start using his helmets
Ok
Can I use the key? Like why is it so valuable?
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Key_RB-PSP2
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page rb psp2 for a direct link or !wiki search rb psp2 for a list of all hits.
check that out
wiki unfortunately doesnt give much info
i dont play reserve, so im not sure whats good about it
though I do know those cages are pretty decent loot
Its a good key
from what it does say, 4 ration crates which means lots of food spawns
Those cages have really solid loot
lots of food can be quite expensive
though if you dont play reserve much, you would probably make more money selling it
reserve is kinda busted
So I can farm it just for the food?
i wouldnt consider PMC running it
no not really
its not that good of a key
food and drink items at most will be 25k per slot
Are riot helmets useless?
I need 300k just to sell it
if i were you ponchis, i would sell it
Never wear motorcycle or fireman helmets
Thank you for the ragman tip. Im niw finally on lvl 2 with this dude xD
Fuck
Nope down to 100
What is the best budget helmet?
Wait what how expensive is the key
hey what settings should i run the game at for best performace? i haven't played in about half a year but i remember some settings really messing up your game when turned on/off
Ssh wazie
@strange mural 2m
Ok
Snaak dont play on low
@alpine fossil test yourself. different for everyone. dont play on low #521628660298678283 #news-setup
@fossil patrol reserve is a very hard map
especially for new players
Yea Iโve never played it
i suggest you sell it and buy some keys with more value
@strange mural its about what the game thinks its worth
its exponential
But yeah just sell it
@fossil patrol do you play a lot of customs?
Yea thatโs all Iโve been playing
awsome
I suggest you sell that key
get yourself a keytool, marked room key, dorms room 110 and 114, dorms guard room key, and maybe factory key
or dont get yourself a keytool actually
xmas gift is around the corner
regardless, marked room key is 100% required
I find weapons cases there more than a third of the time
110 and 114 are both great, a pc, a medbag, a flashdrive spawn, and two safes
Ok marked room is in big red right?
Gotcha
at the end close to vehicle extract
Thatโs where I got this key lol
spawns money cases, docs cases, weapons cases, keytools, guns etc
its a cheap key, just make sure you check durability before buying it
some lay off their 1/25 keys on the flea scamming people
am I good to go for a solo on customs?
BP
will stop like, 1 bullet
personally I would run ps because bp is expensive, but yea its good
not even 1 probably
thx
Not worth the money imo volk
YUP
Yo anyone wanna play with me?
People will dome you anyway
I need me a sherpa
Whatโs some good ammo for mosins? Iโve been using the lps gz I think
lps is great
it feels snug , like you are protected
Protects from scavs too. Fuck those random aimbotters
7n1 is marginally better
ponchis , try snb
snb isnt worth
snb fucks anyone nomatter what their wearing
doesnt onetap chest volkov

Ohhh I want a fal
does spraying a weapon level up your recoil no matter what?
Yeah but the weapon specific skill only increases if you hit with it
yea but you can just spam reload to up that one
also reloading
Yeah but its meeeeega slow
not really
Not that theres any other reliable way
if you always when you know no one is around just spam few quick loads

its a lot faster than you think
Yeah but id rather have fun or do tasks for 40 hours personally
i love dis game and you guys โค๏ธ
Of course theres a difference in recoil but i think grinding it out would just burn me out for minimal increase
Well i hate u 

Im just a poor boy i cant take labs keys
@strange mural imagine having a -29% rk-2
Buy a extreme duty dust cover but o a sight
thats what maxed AR is like
and die one shot to the head 
I usually run stuff like this:
(insured, BP. but i've stopped using sight and muzzle brake since i lose it every time)
but it feels like it doesn't matter, either i get sniped from someone i couldn't see, or get mowed down instantly. I have luck sometimes, but only from low level players and i guess player scavs. If it's a fair fight I can fight but almost all of my deaths are (PLAYER) head, ears (ME) or something but instant. So I try sprinting everywhere so if i get shot at from a camper, I have a chance, which actually works, but then everyone knows where i am. I seem to have better luck as scav, probably because they spawn in later, but I don't want to just sit around for 10 minutes to start.
personally, if im gonna watch a movie or something i will turn on tarkov on the secondary monitor and macro him to reload an sks
@shell brook your troubles are basically every new players troubles
i try but i simply don't see people
i would recommend you play with someone else who is pretty good
i lowered my fov which helps some
the things you struggle with come from experience
playing with a good player will help you gain that experience artificially
ye
yeah
if you would rather solo, just take 30 seconds to think about where you died
what lead up to it
how the raid went in total
what killed you
reflecting on that will help you stop making mistakes so much
i mean last time, I got the jump on 2 lower level people 4 and 6, and won easily, but after going cover to cover on customs cause there was a sniper i got shot by an experienced player from the side while in cover from getting shot by someone else to my front
maybe i should have checked to the side actually
see! you are already doing it ๐
also, dont be afraid to run away
you dont need to take every fight
yeah
still died though but almost got away
does glasses do anything
why?
hard to explain, but they make you super visible in fog
its a rendering issue that i dont believe has been fixed
when the pmc is in fog, the glasses will render as like fully black
it's says it protects from fragments
ah, ok, thanks
yup
i've seen a lot of people that appeared fully black at distance that might be part of it
alright i'm going in
imagine being able to see thru windows
imagine not cleaning your faceshield before you go into a combat zone
you can clean your faceshield!? ๐ฏ
No he was joking
lol k
tf are you supposed to do with a cracked face shield if you cant even repair it?
sell on flea to fuck with other people
that actually sounds like a solid plan
thanks guys
ok i killed 5 scavs, and went into offices on customs
^toxic lol
then someone walked by the window (maybe knew i was there but closed door) and when he walked by a second time i shot him but he killed me instantly with full armor
even though his vision is totally blocked by the metal
what do i do
dont get shot
this game should really add wipes
that you can wipe face shields with
and after 1 - 3 raids the face shield becomes blurry like now
c l i n
its really aids how some spots are blurred D;
learn to be able to use ur mouse to turn ur head
so you can see around the dirtyy spots
maybe i should have gotten to better cover even if he heard me and used nade
@half jackal clin would be shit for visors iirc
poly carbonate actually has a pretty specific way to clean it
is the mp5 for the 8 knives worth it?
yeah
what else you gonna do with the knives
stuff em in your bag every raid
find something more worth? drop the knife
get 8 knives? trade for mp5
i don't go into raid with knife then put knife in scabbard
good idea
ill do that
i only need one more, but I have like zero room in my stash
why has no one told me how fun it is to run factory
just going in and killing 1 or 2 guys and sprinting out
sell stuff you can always buy it back
Are knives the unofficial trading currency
no
wait lets say i sell a adar to skier or something can I always buy it back no matter how long its been?
well buy it from flea market
you can't buy back anything you sell to a trader
oh damn
if the trader sells it
i mean you lose a little money but better to have space
you can buy it
and yeah you can buy from flea
so you can get everything that way
and you will make much more money later
im not level 5 yet im like lvl 4 3/4 lol
almost there :p
