I am so confused trying to locate the goshun manifest... I can't find it

gloomy aurora
#

did someone ask me to dm them?

warm rover
#

I have to go through the middle and get to the door from there ?

open basin
#

yeah\

#

You can also watch a youtube vid about it lmao

warm rover
#

Yeah I literally lost myself in there until a scav obliterated me

#

Good thing I put those 2 gpus in my container woooh

#

can't believe they were sitting next to each other

green shuttle
#

just used the vss for the first time and that thing is a little ripper

frosty crown
#

what do i use my bitcoins on?

green shuttle
#

you can save them up and trade them for weapons or cases

frosty crown
#

which trades are worth it?

warm rover
#

Can I keep the dogtags for later on for quests, or do I have to accept the quests and find dogtags afterwards ?

green shuttle
#

@warm rover im pretty sure you can accumulate them and use them for quests later on

#

get a dog tag case

warm rover
#

Too expensive, I want to get a sicc case tho

green shuttle
#

@frosty crown i think the cases are more worth it but you can check how much the case sells for vs what a bitcoin sells for

bold kernel
#

@frosty crown up to you but lately I sell them and buy containers with the money

warm rover
#

I want to get to the punisher 6 so I can get epsilon asap

grand crow
#

Are earbuds okay to use instead of headphones

green shuttle
#

yes whatever you prefer

grand crow
#

Thanks

#

I get literally quite sweaty with headphones

green shuttle
#

lol turn your ac up then

rotund falcon
#

How important is manual control of recoil in this game? Will i fuck it up if I try to control manually

green shuttle
#

what do you mean manually? isn't the only way to control recoil via manually?

rotund falcon
#

like csgo type spray control

green shuttle
#

there's not really crazy recoil patterns like in CS

open basin
#

yeah pretty sure there's automatic recoil control in dis shit

rotund falcon
#

I have terrible accuracy with it

#

My round go nowhere near the enemy

potent drum
#

when are you no longer new at the game

green shuttle
#

the unmodded guns will give you pretty bad recoil, just need to mod them

potent drum
#

or should not be new

rotund falcon
#

Whenever you feel like it

#

It’s arbitrary

potent drum
#

never going to happen

green shuttle
#

how long have you been playting?

warm rover
#

I usually test my guns in the shooting range before going to raid

rotund falcon
#

@potent drum dude if your worried about being competent at the game don’t

#

Like this game has so much shit that it’s hard to know it all unless you have no life and grind it for 12 hours a day

#

Also how the fuck do I manage my money I find myself dropping 60k per raid on shot

open basin
#

learn the maps before you drop money on raids

#

also learn how to make money with your scavs

solid gulch
#

and for literally every quest EXCEPT killing PMCs you can probably pistol run

warm rover
#

Man scavs are sometimes big ass tanks... I put my whollle mag in him he's still strong

open basin
#

learn how to figure out where you are on a map

solid gulch
#

woohoo finally level 30

open basin
#

man i've been losing firefights that i feel like i can win if i werent using a damn mosin

green shuttle
#

Is Punisher Part 6 the only quest that requires dog tags?

warm rover
#

yeppp

green shuttle
#

so i'll just sell all of my high level dog tags and keep the low levels if thats all I need them for right?

warm rover
#

pretty much, 10 from bear and 10 usec

#

doesn't matter what lvl

potent drum
#

damn man

#

faint ruin
#

im new to the game about a week now and besides my bad aim cause i mainly play league of legends i just cant seem to spot people before they spot me any tips or any other useful advice is appreciated

brazen owl
#

play slow. Move, stop on cover, watch your surroundings, repeat.

mint hawk
#

@potent drum No server issues this morning on EUW

brazen owl
#

Beware of the sound you make, almost everything creates sound in EFT, moving, aiming, turning around, etc.

potent drum
#

i triedto load back in game six times even after closing the gamestill got a server lost error

stark coyote
#

Lil stuck. Peacekeeper is at lvl2, but i don't have anymore quests for him, all i need is to increase standing to level him though

open basin
#

wait how do you not have anymore quests for peacekeeper and still be at lvl 2

stark coyote
#

Idk

#

Don't even know if i have done any with him yet

open basin
#

have you done any quest for him

stark coyote
#

No clue, standing is at .2

open basin
#

you need to complete friends from the west pt 1 and pt 2 from skier

#

thats prob cuz you have eod

mint hawk
#

have you started missions with him though?

open basin
#

you get .2 boost for every trader with eod

mint hawk
#

you need to progress through skier to access peacekeeper

stark coyote
#

Uhg. Fuck skier

#

Looks like i'm going pistol only for a while 😦

open basin
#

friend from the west pt 1 is ez

stark coyote
#

I don't even have that unlocked xD

open basin
#

kill 5 usecs, handover 2 MBSS backpacks, and 1 AVS vest

#

you just need to do golden swag to unlock it

#

have fun with friend from the west pt 2 πŸ˜„

solid gulch
#

oh wow i just got the "the game thinks you didn't extract with anything bug"

#

i found a beta2 and a vss 😦

open basin
#

just transfer an item and press back

stark coyote
#

Can you buy the golden zibbo?

open basin
#

no

#

stark coyote
#

Fuck.... Where the hell you find it then? XD

stark coyote
#

Good lord.... Customs...

Anyone care to hold my hand through some customs? I can bring some big dick gear, just hate the map xD

analog summit
#

How does 1 simply run shoreline?

#

I need to do signals part 1 and have no idea how to

stark coyote
#

I really want to tell you to hold shift and W

#

I gotta do that quest aswell, care to team up? See if we can figure it out? XD

open basin
#

signals pt 1 is ez

stark coyote
#

Not if you don't know the map

open basin
#

shoreline is a very ez map to learn

stark coyote
#

They all are, just takes time

open basin
#

this map is only a month and a half old too

stark coyote
#

My account isn't that old πŸ˜›

analog summit
#

alright let's see

#

alright I need to add someone and we'll do this together

bold kernel
#

welp trying to play this game is like >squad up

#

squad members see my level

#

whole squad leaves

#

it's like when you first try to get a job and every job requires 50 years of experience

analog summit
#

yeah tru

#

I'm level 20\

#

is that good enoughj

bold kernel
#

try level 3

open basin
#

squads wut

bold kernel
#

I've literally been right about to infiltrate with a squad when they see my level and suddenly everyone has to go to bed or take the trash out

#

like b r u h i'm new not mentally retarded

open basin
#

tell them you're new before grouping then

analog summit
#

lmao

#

aight tahnks brothr

bold kernel
#

I did?? look at LFG channel

#

what key is it to access the rooms in the garage on customs?

#

I cant for the life of me remember what its called, it unlocks the 3 locked rooms

open basin
#

garage?

ornate fossil
#

its the USEC storage key

brazen owl
#

is there a chance of spawning as scav with no pmcs in the match?

ornate fossil
#

yes

open basin
#

isnt it that if you spawn in as a scav then there's at least 1 pmc

vernal anchor
#

It should not be possible

#

Scavs can only spawn into active raids, and raids are only active while players are in them

ornate fossil
#

like you could be spawning in as they are leaving

#

but what he just said is true ^^^^

blazing geode
#

do you need to leave the game open for bitcoin farm to actively farm?

rose echo
#

No @blazing geode but need to have the generator running

blazing geode
#

is there any fix to scav loot not showing up? (it only shows what the scav spawned with)

open basin
#

transfer item and then press back

smoky idol
#

Guys, i did a shoreline run and killed 4 scavs, and managed to extract. Loss 60 spare sks bullets though when I dropped them trying to make space.

blazing geode
#

@open basin thanks

open basin
#

np

solid gulch
#

does pulling stuff out as a scav not count as found in raid anymore

sand apex
#

it should

open basin
#

man

#

i just extracted and it tells me my character is in raid

#

and no i have to reconnect

#

i reconnect and server connection is lost

#

man i better have completed this dumbass quest

solid gulch
#

@sand apex i don't think it does anymore, all the stuff i've pulled out as a scav is no longer "found in raid"

#

at least the armor and rigs

#

oh wait i know what happened

#

i was bugged where it didn't load the stuff i extracted with

misty quartz
#

Hi, any advices how level up fast? Best map for scav hunting?

open basin
#

what lvl are you

misty quartz
#

6

open basin
#

just keep doing tasks

misty quartz
#

yeah, bu ti wanna level skills too

open basin
#

like which skills

misty quartz
#

stamina etc

open basin
#

those will level up as you play

fossil saffron
#

@misty quartz If you are looking for easy way to kill scavs i would take a coupe of ur friends or ppl in this discord and sit on Factory toilets, there is couple spots that you can see also any angle and you can see both entry points to the toilets. Otherways, if you want to level stamina and kill scavs and get stuff done i would run Customs and woods, maybe shoreline if you get a friend to bring keys with him. i personally would NOT buy keys as low level.

bronze oak
#

any newbs need help

bold kernel
#

scavs are surprisingly hard to kill

#

sometimes at least

#

when 5 push you at once and you have to reload

neat spruce
#

If I have a job that requires power in my hideout, and I switch off the generator, do I lose all of the progress towards the job that was in process, or can I pick up where I left off when I restore power?

open basin
#

nah

#

it'll still make it

neat spruce
#

awesome

open basin
#

but add like 10 hours to it or something lmfao

neat spruce
#

lol

bronze oak
#

if you turn power off it makes it super long

#

if you turn it back on it restarts the time

neat spruce
#

that sucks

open basin
#

just craft stuff before you sleep

bronze oak
#

so if something takes 10 minutes and you turn power off itll go to like 5 hours but if you turn it back on itll still be at 10 minutes

#

or in between raids

open basin
#

then turn it off

neat spruce
#

it's only another 17min

#

I can rub one out, then turn off the generator.

open basin
#

god i have one more shitty quest and i'll get peacekeeper lvl 3

hearty sky
#

scav xp means nothing right?

open basin
#

yeah scav xp doesnt really matter to you

sand apex
#

I think there's a DLC planned that involves making use of scav xp

#

like you can level up a scav etc

#

but I don't know any more details than that

open basin
#

right now it doesnt matter at all

sand apex
#

but the scav has its own skills etc that affect him, but he's gone once you're done with him so there's no real point

undone hazel
#

should i keep or sell my bitcoins?

sand apex
#

I don't even bother drinking/eating as a scav unless I need to to survive the raid, since leveling metabolism on the scav is pointless

#

up to you

#

if you will find the roubles more useful than the bitcoin trades, probably sell them

open basin
#

some of the btc barters are cool

#

but thats a lot of btc

sand apex
#

you can always buy them again

#

their price fluctuates but it's been pretty stable in the 110k range lately

open basin
#

i feel like it's gonna get cheaper the later the wipe

sand apex
#

probably

#

it has been going down over time

#

though not super fast

open basin
#

yeah cuz people are getting their own btc farm

sand apex
#

but then they add new trades that use them increasing demand which affects it too

#

hard to predict

open basin
#

wonder what the prices are gonna be when GPUs have a durability on em

tight elm
#

What do I need to level up to reduce scav downtime?

open basin
#

intelligence center lvl 1

sweet bridge
#

what is the easiest way to level up to lvl 5 im lvl 3 rn

tight elm
#

@open basin thanks, how much does it reduce it by?

open basin
#

it reduces the timer down by 15%

#

no idea on the actual time

sand apex
#

base time is 20 mins

#

so that shaves 3 mins off

#

the level 3 adds another 20% reduction, losing another 4 mins

meager girder
#

what is the optimal spec to mod for in semi auto shotties? Recoil or ergo?

placid heath
#

i love this guy ^

#

zealous swallow

@sweet bridge healing your PMC when you die πŸ˜„

#

@placid heath What do you think?

placid heath
#

dude i take the default

#

and get good slugs

stable nova
#

what consequences has run through?

amber saffron
#

best ammo for mosin?

stable nova
#

@amber saffron im using snb

placid heath
#

can the mosin use 7n1? if so thats the best

amber saffron
#

if you edit a message it doesn't actually send me a notification

placid heath
#

would recommend the 7n1

steady pilot
#

7n1 is the best for a bolt action

#

SNB is ok if you use it in SVD

#

but 7n1 still best

amber saffron
#

doesn't the PU 3.5x fit the mosin? πŸ‘€

#

it's saying the item is not compatible πŸ€”

steady pilot
#

you need a curved bolt

#

the infantry model is a straight bolt

vernal anchor
#

You need the kochetov mount and the pu 3.5x ring mount to put it all on

placid heath
#

delta i wanna see ur vepr built bc i hate that gun even modded

steady pilot
#

its literally an sks but better

amber saffron
#

thanks

open basin
#

you need the sniper version smiteS

#

is the 7n1 a two shot kill on thorax?

#

on class 4 armor

vernal anchor
#

Should be one shot

#

86 flesh

#

Thorax 80 health

open basin
#

im getting better with the mosin at least

steady pilot
#

SNB will always be a 2shot

#

but guranteed

open basin
#

i need 4 more kills for tarkov shooter pt 1

steady pilot
#

7n1 is most of the time will 90% one shot lvl 4. and 40-50% dice roll on lvl 5

#

@placid heath

#

just a cheap 30k build i use to back up my bolt actions

open basin
#

open basin
placid heath
#

my ak74n is like

#

100k

#

πŸ˜„

upper sky
#

steady pilot
#

vepr is usually 10-14k

#

dynacomp is 2k

open basin
#

the op sks is like 25k

steady pilot
#

polymer is 4k

#

butt pad (if you want) is 3k

placid heath

placid heath

#

PS if you're cheap, or BP

placid heath
#

neat

#

vernal anchor
#

BP is nuts

steady pilot
placid heath
#

and a scope?

open basin

hm i need to do the punisher questline for bp

steady pilot

#

placid heath
#

ye+

steady pilot
#

reddot and grip is preference.

placid heath
#

ima try running that one solo in a few

#

before it backs my m700 up πŸ˜„

steady pilot
#

the scope is 13k

#

3-10x

open basin
#

is the hamr worth using

#

cuz that shit is over 40k smiteS

steady pilot
#

it's ok.

#

you need to spend extra money to get the deltapoint too.

open basin
#

yeah

#

i like the elcan

steady pilot
#

the elcan has like the whole package for 3-35k./

open basin
#

30k koreaFEELSG

steady pilot
#

@placid heath

#

so yeah cheap rifle, cheap mods

#

better than a pistol

#

just taking a veprkm with tt01 and black polmyer for a 16k total build is A-1

tribal cove
#

If I have 1 lab keycard I can only go on labs once?

zealous knot
#

i always get an extract called cliff decent. but no map ever calls out that location???? or am i blind

vernal anchor
#

On woods?

open basin
#

yeah on woods

#

pretty sure it's the mountain stash one

zealous knot
#

i guess its mountain stash but you need paracord?

steady pilot
#

@zealous knot its behind Dome on Reserve, and in the hidden loot spot on woods

open basin
#

but cliffs descent isnt on any of the woods maps

tribal cove
steady pilot
#

paracord and Red Rebel pic

vernal anchor
#

Cliff descent used to be called mountain stash

#

It would normally be at the bottom middle of most woods maps

open basin
#

yeah the maps have it as mountain stash

zealous knot
#

ok, im guessing risking a red pick for that extract isnt worth it lol

vernal anchor
#

You can equip the axe and keep the paracord in your container if you want to

#

You won't lose either if you extract there

zealous knot
#

isnt the axe high value?

vernal anchor
#

Yeah it is

plucky goblet

you don't lose melee weapons

buoyant jolt
#

Hello people, new to eft and still trying to lean the maps. Is there anywhere were I could get decent updated maps?

zealous knot
#

even if someone loots you you keep it?

plucky goblet
#

yes

vernal anchor
#

You can't loot player melee weapons

zealous knot
#

ok that makes it a nice extract then thanks

plucky goblet
#

and even when you still could you didn't lose them

#

@buoyant jolt the wiki

#

!wiki customs

broken quailBOT
zealous knot
#

is there a long timer to paracord down?

buoyant jolt
#

Thank you

plucky goblet
#

as an example

vernal anchor
#

There's no animation for the extract

zealous knot
#

its instant extract!!!!?

vernal anchor
#

It acts as a normal extract, just that you can't use it if you don't have the items

zealous knot
#

ok ok thanks ill youtube it

tribal cove
#

I was once on reserve and went to 3 consecutive extracts, but I didn't have the required items

#

So i did the manhole

unique willow
#

quick question @vernal anchor , if an ammo penetrates cleanly lets say through tiers 1 to 4, does it still do the exact same damage to all of them?

vernal anchor
#

Yes I believe so

unique willow
#

yea kinda thought so too, so if im getting shot by m995 and i only have like tier 4 armor, then its literally the same as wearing nothing at all

vernal anchor
#

Yeah

#

Thats why it has low flesh damage, so that it's balanced

steady pilot
#

so yes a m995 round can 2 shot you to chest

#

if tier lvl 4 armor and low er

#

Same reason why m80 one taps chest on all lvl 3 armors, 90% of time on lvl 4

tribal cove
steady pilot
#

its fine

#

nicer to have suppressor for solo play

lapis mauve
#

might want painkillers

steady pilot
#

attracting whole map with a dinner bell

tribal cove
#

true. i wanted to get one and adaptor + supressor is 60k

steady pilot
#

nah

vernal anchor
#

You could also put something like a balaclava on to cover your shiny head

steady pilot
#

get QD wave for 40k

#

never mind is 48k now

tribal cove
#

will search for that

steady pilot
#

people found out they were good

vernal anchor
#

M700 is a loud gun which can be fun at times but if you really want to keep attention off you then a supressor is nice, and also gives you some stats buffs

tribal cove
#

Does the qd fit on the adaptor for m700?

stiff warren
#

does anyone wanna raid with me?

vernal anchor
#

The Daniel Defence Wave Muzzle Brake 7.62x51 will fit on the 20" M700 barrel

#

And then the Wave QD Suppressor will go on the muzzle break

tribal cove
#

Oh. Ok

runic rapids
#

anyone got time to raid and teach some stuff?

steady pilot
#

A sherpa can

unique willow
#

ok how am i getting a sight on this, i tried linked search and all that but im not getting anything out of that

#

ok nevermind

feral gorge
#

@unique willow Link search and go receivers

vernal anchor
#

You want a DS Arms Extreme Duty dust cover for SA58

unique willow
#

i need different grip and all that

#

too expensive

#

but thanks anyways

feral gorge
#

Ok then lol

steady pilot
#

you link search things that attach to it

#

so for muzzles, the barrel, for optics the dustcover or upper receiver.

vernal anchor
#

Best fal pistol grip will give you 8 more ergo than the default

#

The Fab AG Fal pistol grip

steady pilot
#

cost 6k

unique willow
#

so also about the ergo, it makes you ads faster, takes less endurance to hold it, and wobbles less when you ads while moving?

#

is it for anything else?

vernal anchor
#

Thats pretty much it

feral gorge
#

Less sound when adsing

#

Having above 50 ergo is plenty

unique willow
#

love the negative ergo on mosin

feral gorge
#

Ye

steady pilot
#

meta nerds get around not having ergo with the Canted/1oclock sight on their gun. it aims like you have 100ergo

tribal cove
#

My m700 has 15 ergo and it doesnt feel that great

open basin
#

you cant use surv12 or cms on head right?

vernal anchor
#

You can't use it on head or thorax

Its really strong which is nice, M700 got some love

open basin
#

play the game πŸ˜„

#

ur back to lvl 1 with all your starting items

amber saffron
#

well yeah

tribal cove
#

@steady pilot how much in roubles?

amber saffron
#

but I die and lose my stuff and die again

#

and Ill end up where I am now

#

so πŸ€”

open basin
#

but now

#

focus on task and watch the video to learn how to make money

vernal anchor
#

I would recommend doing some scav runs to get cash

steady pilot
#

just learn to scav

#

and survive

open basin
#

just get lucky and find 2 gpus as a scav

#

EZPZ

steady pilot
#

go play interchange

#

watch videos on how to survive

amber saffron
#

because I barely can kill anyone

vernal anchor
#

You don't really need to kill anyone to make money

amber saffron
#

so I don’t get any loot to make profit

open basin
#

thats the beauty of interchange

steady pilot
#

you cant kill anyone cause you have bad ammo

open basin
#

you dont have to kill people

steady pilot
#

and everyone is heavily geared

amber saffron
#

oh

#

should have learned interchange rather than factory

vernal anchor
#

I would not recommend factory for getting money at all

open basin
#

factory isnt what normal combat is anyways imo

steady pilot
#

factory is a fuckfest

#

not a noob friendly map

vernal anchor
#

It's more of just a PVP place

open basin
#

factory pvp is it's own thing

unique willow
#

factory is where you want to go if you really want to learn how to pvp and all the aimduels and so on

misty quartz
#

So which map is friendly for newbies?

steady pilot
#

idk who tells people that beginners should go to factory

unique willow
#

you know how to pre peek and all that you can use on other maps

steady pilot
#

Customs for questing and interchange for money

#

after cutoms, lvl 2 ragman unlocks a lot of interhcnage quests

tribal cove
#

Is woods the best map to avoid players?

steady pilot
#

no

open basin
#

no lol

#

woods has the thermal sniper tryhards smiteS

steady pilot
#

Shorline is probally the most player dead map

open basin
#

almost all the players on shoreline are gonna be in resort

tribal cove
#

That doesn't sound good @open basin

#

So shoreline or woods for my sniper raid?

open basin
#

the only pmcs i've seen that arent in resort in shoreline are at the gas station trying to do tarkov shooter

vernal anchor
#

Woods main problem is that is has some chokepoints

stable nova
#

ah done with woods for now

vernal anchor
#

And now with the scav boss it has more traffic with people trying to kill him

open basin
#

is the east wing room 205 key worth a lot?

vernal anchor
#

But it still has excellent sniping if you have the right spots

gray mountain
#

#

I died to the infamous scav boss grenade

#

fortunately I had my SA-58 insured

#

You might need to go back to your stash then back in

unique willow
#

yea i did, i even restarted already

gray mountain
#

Can you sell to mechanic?

vernal anchor
#

Yes

unique willow
#

yea

open basin
#

god i hate helmets

#

at a earlier shoreline raid my head was at 0/60

#

yet my helmet was at a clean 25/25

#

freaking useless 😠

unique willow
#

prapor, peacekeeper and jaeger also dont want to buy that

#

but for some reason fence is willing to

open basin
#

he buys everything

vernal anchor
#

Might just have to list it on the flea market

unique willow
#

yea im doing that already

#

since selling to fence is often times really not worth it

#

and mechanic wants to be an ass

tribal cove
#

So I want to do a first raid with a sniper. What map should I play? I dont need thicc loot, just want to have some fun killing scavs or pmc is possible

cyan nova
#

im very very new like ive only had the game for a few hours, ive come here for guidence

#

any tips would help, i just want to increase my chances at survival

tribal cove
#

Dont rush, be patient, listen for enemy steps always and you need to know the map.

vernal anchor
#

Learning maps is a great help. The wiki is also your best friend

tribal cove
#

Dont have meny tips cause I am new to

rustic sigil
#

Wazie, woods

tribal cove
#

Ok

vernal anchor
#

Don't worry so much about succeeding off the start, because the game can be tricky to get the hang off

gray mountain
#

Thermaling these scavs

cyan nova
#

from what i've seen its confusing, since im sorta a hardass i've been throwing myself into customs and learning it as i go

#

i've kinda succeeded in surviving

bold panther
#

ambush people, don't be the ambushee

gray mountain
#

The way I've learnt maps is just going on a semi geared run and having a map on my second monitor and hope to god that I can find some sort of landmark to point me in the right direction

misty quartz
#

Endy, most important - dont be feared of death. Gear is just pixels

gray mountain
#

I think its supposed to be "ambush people, not get ambushed"

#

ambushee is still the one ambushing

#

right?

#

nvm

cyan nova
#

i've been thinking of running into factory and see how long i can survive

gray mountain
#

scratch that, Lazy was right

bold panther
#

gj

vernal anchor
#

People also recommend playing maps in offline mode to get a hang of them without losing gear

gray mountain
#

^

bold panther
#

don't run factory unless you like losing shit

cyan nova
#

ive been thinking of doing that but i cant find the option ;-;

bold panther
#

it's not about surviving, it's about getting out and making money and xp

gray mountain
#

Ive found Factory useful to just get into the high action combat that you might encounter in more high risk maps

bold kernel
#

do gastubes matter?

misty quartz
#

If you choose go into raid you can tick poption for offline

#

option

bold panther
#

click the hour on the map you want then next>next>next

open basin
#

surviving is how you get xp and money for the most part smiteS

gray mountain
#

@bold kernel I think gas tubes can have stats, most dont tho

#

Some gas tubes come with ergonomics and recoil I think

vernal anchor
#

You get to offline by going map selection > next > enable offline mode > ready

cyan nova
#

i also have an issue with aiming when people are moving 😦

amber saffron
#

interchange is a pretty cool map

#

any extracts that are always active?

open basin
#

railway and emercom checkpoint are always open

#

it just depends on what side of the map you spawn

amber saffron
#

so it's either of those or both of those?

open basin
#

nah it's always either

amber saffron
#

I see

open basin
#

unless ur a scav

#

if you're a scav then either one is open

#

!wiki interchange

broken quailBOT
amber saffron
#

I know where railway is, need to learn where emercom is

#

thanks

open basin
#

there's a second extract for pmcs by the power station

#

but that one isnt always there

vernal anchor
#

They're at opposite sides of the map

open basin
#

and you need 3k roubles for it

#

emercom checkpoint is closer but it has some extract campers on it

amber saffron
#

why do people camp extracts 😩

#

so annoying

unique willow
#

they are only after the gear

#

thats all they want

#

and since they are bad at pvp

#

they camp

#

thats how they have fun

open basin
#

there's also some people that might snipe you when ur extracting at emercom

#

open basin
rocky ocean
#

My problem is getting the docs on costumes becauae i always get the same spawn next to the zb underground extract

#

I got the docs only one time but i just have to try more

open basin
#

just wait till the end

prisma stag
#

hi folks.
can anyone explain for me the extraction timer? I mean, I thought that when you press O it shows time until you must leave the raid. also in one of my scav runs I run out of this time and died in like 10 secs after it counted to 0. so everything was clear at that moment.
but yesterday I played customs as pmc, run out of time, hit the car at dorms and realized that it need 7k while I had like 50 roubles below it. so the story is: i reached dorms ectraction, it highlights in green in exit list but I wasn't able to extract and raid timer timed out.
I didn't die for like extra 3 minutes so decided to try to find that money I miss and went to bunch of scavs who finally killed me.

so my question is: what the timer really mean? time to extract? time to find exit (but not necessarily extract)? or what?

rocky ocean
#

Will get there eventually

open basin
waxen forge
#

Probably a bug. Always get out before 0:00

prisma stag
#

well, that was my thoughts as well, but wanted to clarify in case if I missing something

stable nova
#

yay finally lvl 15

reef prairie
#

isnt the car exit 3k?

twin eagle
#

Which map do you guys prefer/recommend for a beginner that started like an hour ago? πŸ˜›

waxen forge
#

Customs/Interchange

#

Customs because it is small enough to get pvp but big enough to move around...plus has the first task

#

Then interchange because it has a ton of task/hideout items.

#

Is a great place to make $

vernal anchor
#

Probably customs because it has a lot of quests on it at the start and is easy to read a map of

twin eagle
#

Thanks!

waxen forge
#

Also remember you can run Offline Mode to practice any map

#

No gear lost if you die....but don't keep what you loot

#

Use internet maps on 2nd monitor

#

Middle mouse click examines the grayed out items

twin eagle
#

Oh, thanks!

vernal anchor
#

Also, the wiki is your best friend

stable nova
#

do i need to do a quest for skier lvl 2?

waxen forge
#

Examine everything that each trader has. You get XP and don't have to take time examining in raid

stable nova
#

i meet all the requirements for next loyality level

#

still it shows lvl 1

waxen forge
#

Exit game and restart

#

It's a bug i believe

twin eagle
#

@waxen forge Oh thanks didnt know that!

open basin
#

try restarting your game then

vernal anchor
#

You can examine with middle mouse button to save time

waxen forge
#

When you get flea unlocked it's time consuming but go into flea and examine everything EXCEPT KEYS.

willow heron
#

How do I get permission. Here

waxen forge
#

That way you have them examined and don't waste time in raid

vernal anchor
#

Just like that

willow heron
#

Thanks!

waxen forge
#

Plus can use the Edit PReset function and workbench

#

I don't do keys that way if I find a key in raid and it's not examined I know I don't have it yet

vernal anchor
#

You can't equip items that you havent examined in a match so its good to get as many guns and gear as possible examined

willow heron
#

Is there any guide that can show me what armor with what tactical rig I can wear?

twin eagle
#

All right cool thanks

waxen forge
#

You can wear any armor with a rig as long as it's not an armored rig

#

So no AVS or Tactec with body armor

vernal anchor
#

If it doesn't have any durability then it works with armor

gray mountain
#

EFT down again?

willow heron
#

Amazing thanks!

vernal anchor
#

Possibly

amber saffron
#

just got an "authorization error", what does that mean?

@twin eagle if you dont have a second monitor you can use the steam overlay browser instead of alt tabbing or using a phone

Any recommendations on tactical rig without armor

#

@waxen forge Ive watched this game for 1-2 years atleast, never bought it though because I have no one to play it with. And I usually get bored very quickly if I play alone all the time. But I had to get it now, because I just need something that is intense, everything is so boring nowadays

tawny vector

@amber saffron I just got it too, took me out of the game sadbear

waxen forge

Well t his is certainly intense

amber saffron

yeah same

I hope I didn’t lose my shit lul

plucky goblet

i only said it looks like stash to me

The picture is just white if you have NVGs on

So I knifed someone 7 times and he didnt die, do you have to do it like 15 times and all on head or something? :p

#

hit their legs or arms if their face is not open

#

melee's do absolutely 0 damage on any type of armor

twin eagle
#

Got it!

waxen forge
#

Yea melee isn't a thing in EFT

vernal anchor
#

Hitting an un armored head will do a lot of damage though

#

And any hit which blacks a head out is an instant kill

gray mountain
#

Yeah I entered with NVG and thermal

#

big mistake

plucky goblet
#

or just use a gun instead of a knife

tawny vector
#

I got a lab key for managers office

#

should probably just sell it no?

plucky goblet
#

if you dont intend to play labs, sell it

#

but even if, youre extremely open when looting the office, so i myself would sell it

from what Ive gathered, labs is not somewhere I want to be

dense patrol
#

Is there a good guide about which kinds of items you can/can't shoot through? Like doors, crates, walls, containers etc.

waxen forge
#

A specific guide. No

#

You can shoot through wooden doors

#

Glass in Interchange yes (mostly)

#

Crates and walls are maybe but not likely

unique willow
#

its generally quite realistic game, if you think that you should be able to shoot something, you likely are able to

dense patrol
#

I know nothing about guns from real life, so I wouldn't know πŸ˜„ I guess it also depends on the gun/ammo?

twin eagle
#

How can I tell if someone is a scav or not, impossible for me right now lol

unique willow
#

yea could be rather hard, but they do wear quite different clothing and also scavs have certain patrol routes and move quite differently compared to real players

waxen forge
#

How they move. Weapon on back?

#

Looting?

#

Once dead ai scavs have no Pouch Slot

unique willow
#

there is no real easy way to tell a simple to to know it, but you will learn to know players from scavs real fast

#

@waxen forge well it doesnt really matter too much after they are dead

waxen forge
#

If you are a PMC doesn't matter either. They are all hostile

twin eagle
#

So what exactly does "discard" do? if I find something and I cant loot it because of space and i discard it

#

it just goes away for other players?

frosty plinth
#

you drop it on the ground

waxen forge
#

Nope

#

Falls on ground

twin eagle
#

Aaah

frosty plinth
#

so as a new player, if you insure your guns, you can discard them in a bush when you find new ones

#

and the discarded guns will return to you as insurance in a few days

#

assuming no one randomly finds them

twin eagle
#

I have no clue what insurance is:O

#

:P*

frosty plinth
#

you should be insuring everything you are running out with

#

!wiki insurance

#

After you choose a map/time hit Next not ready

#

Then go through the offline option and the no map with NEXT

#

Will take you to Insurance screen

#

Can insure 1x1 items or just Insure all.

Use Prapor. Therapist isn't worth it.

So I bought a PP91, I bought a mag for it "Standard 20 round mag for PP91" and I bought ammo. I put the gun on me, the mag in my bag with the ammo, and get in game and it says I dont have any ammo in my gun, then I was like wtf is happening and tried to "install" and said its not examined or wahtever and didnt work either

#

Lmao

#

Im so lost

You can't use any equipment that hasn't been examined first

Also when you buy weapons they come unloaded. Mags come unloaded

Everyhing is examined from before

"before"?

I loaded the mag before hand

But you should also be able to drag the mag to the gun, right?

You would have to eject mag from weapon first.

Then drag the mag from backpack into weapon
