guys you should really invest in a dogtag case , saves alot of space in ur inv if ur grabbing dogtags and when u die in a raid u can atleast know the names of people you've killed
@silver dome and then when you reach lvl 4 ragman you can buy cowboy hats with them and make big lumps of money
@broken briar
Nah you do tags>cowboy hats> glocks and then flea them
anyone wanna play?
lol whats not a flex if you have under 10h a day u a beta
are these any good?
@broken briar well they are the best 12g xD
Hella expensive though
im in shoreline
stop trolling
im in a raid right now
well put it in secure its 20mil rubels

funny joke

very funny indeed
me profile pic is volkov rn
hmm i'm so good at cleaning up my stash by going on raids and just dying
poopy funny made me laugh
Frenks
@cold parrot stop making fun of his age lol
okay
hey guys
If you want to blame people for you being tabbed out go ahead, but it wonât last very long.
im joking dude
thoughts?
Is this for the headshots quest?
hey guys , how come okp 7 on reshalas guards ak's have a cirlce but when i buy it from the flea market , its a blue line?
keep that tushonka holy shit @broken briar
what is the best 5.45x39 ammo?
@silver dome the first thing i said u were funcking with us couse it didnt have the found in raid
@twilit tinsel
@twilit tinsel there is no best
I wouldnât bring that tushonka into raid for food btw
oh right ok
For a quest or just sell it
i filled my second items case and my third med and scav case ._.
Vir meh mod
@silver dome it depends on the mount. The dovetail version has the thin line and the rail version has the circle.
i sell all my meds that arent grizzlys or alu splints
ifak?
mia shreds armor
use the same ammo
LOL
they both use the same ammo
hunter shreds armor too
u can fuck up thicc bois in labs with the cunt
ping bong your oppinion is wrong
Hmm got a question, I have the first quest from Skier, 4 shootguns and 4 body armor, gave him 4x Toz-106 and 4x Module-3M, he took it but nothing happen, I still can give him more
Its a fact not opinion 
i got a red key card once then i woke up
OK so i'm really bad at the game, like horrendously bad. Thinking about jumping back in any tips?
@pearl ivy make sure you hit complete after you turn in your items
Did, game didnt register that I hit the complete, had to restart the game
why do i get like 2-3 minute late spawns its busted
once spawned in shoreline and it qwas 47
@broken briar your internet speed or your pc
yea
i hope they fix late spawns
i dont think they can but idk
Not really much they can do to fix it
yep
save it
How many?
10 of each faction*
Only for trades if Im not mistaken
Some items require high level dog tags
are offline games not working? it stays on "local game is starting..."

cant even back out, have to alt-f4
from what i heard they managed to fuck up offline mode somehow
it worked earlier today
how do i put my pnv-10t on my helmet
what do we do with empty gas tanks now
is there an item i need that i can put in on my helmet
best VSS ammo?
Hey guys, are Hatchling runs a good way to learn the game as a beginner?
Still pretty new and I'm scared of losing loot lol.
No, it's unfun and doesnt teach you much
stupid question how can I retell which are valid extraction points.. it says at the beginning but goes away
Double tap "o"
I think you press O a few times and hold
tax evasion gang rise up
Is there a specific map that's beginner friendly? I tried doing Customs but that was tough.
Hey
I've heard people recommend factory a lot.
I'm new
@steep barn just fun customs, it's a pretty linear map, so if you spawn west you go east, you spawn east you extract west. And run interchange, it only has 2 extractions. Also customs has a lot of lower geared players so playing field is as even as it gets for newer players.
fun=run
@steep barn your better off learning customs , like half of the games quests are mainly on customs
Ah I see.
do woods
heres what i got just now in a marked room :
Factory is not beginners friendly at all and people are bad for recommending it
its one of the best mapa in my oppinionm
Woods is fun. Except scav boss and his goonies
If anything I can try doing some offline runs just to get a feel.
What do water bottles bring ?
now i feel bad
tax evasion gang rise up
@thin estuary u have markers in health screen which is ur energy and hydration. Use em when ur low ish
In the menu? Or game?
Both
Oh ok
Alright, friends. Jumping back into the game after avoiding it for a few days cause I got scared LMAO. Thanks for the help.
In menu under health
AIGHT
aight*
I can't start an offline game. It's loading for so long already
How do I fix that?
An SSD helps a lot.
I moved my files over from my HDD and it ran in less than a min
Oh that's interesting.
I need 5min
Offline mod still runs off a server so the offline servers might be having some issues
My guesss
hm ok
Offline in customs doesnt work for me
Yeah
Only alt f4
Woods worked for me
It might just be a server problem. I didn't have these issues a few weeks back.
Ok
I was also only running Customs.
Firing range and workshop bench are p good
Nah thats fine. Bonuses are bonuses
Ok
I wouldnt invest too much in the beginning
Yes
Alrighty
Scav runs are good cuz even if u dont loot anything u stipp can sell stuff ur scav had for profit
Ur container is a box u keep on ur person in pmc runs where anything in that container if u die is still kept
is there a way to fixing late spawns i just spawned in shoreline 13 minutes late
Ah , so I should always bring it with me, right?
Yes always bring ur case
Aiggt
Any valubles or meds u can keep in there
And how do I know of something is valuable? xD
All comes with experience
Oh ok
@silver dome why get a docs insted of a key bar
some ammo is also very valuable
Thanks guys
lmao
like if you find a stack of 7n1
Key tools are 600k give or take
it was called thats like 1 year ago and it stuck with me
docs case can hold keys , money , cards and btc gp
I have a docs case just as my wallet
same
ii have a money case as my wallet
so ifucked it
how 2 tarkov
And a key tool in my container
then my dick got carpet burns
nice
what if
GUYS
beta smh volkov
GUYS
TAX EVASION GANG RISE UP
@valid widget you dont get m9 at your head
k fair
just get kappa
If m9 is pointed at ur head press x and play dead
yeee
play dead works very well in interchange for some reason
use ur free svd
Quick question yall. Is a keytool worth buying?
bulls i have 2 so i would it is
i just use doc for everything
use key tool
trying to get 1 per map
Go for s i c c if you have the money.
Since I have too many lab access cards anyway
wait no
@rain oar its great if u have a lot of keys
dont use barter
im stuck on matching for 100 mins noice
hey pros whats a good started gun
I'm a broke boi @fathom narwhal
tinybolts, adar or sks
dont use mosin unless for quests
because i have decent ones saved up
Oh.
guys who here tax evasion?
barter is rigged
bulls u evade taxes?
tax evasion gang rise up
@valid widget dm

anyone getting stuck in matchmaking screen? also when you press back button nothing happens
does skier need unused bodyarmors and shotguns for the task?

i tried to give him a 34/70 armor and he doesnt see it. i cant give it
Adar is good aswell

"So, find me TOZes and body armor, shitty white ones."
oh. ok then
activate windows, offtopic
rule1
Yo I actually got 4 scav kills.
but then a player came an ass blasted me ;-;
it's so hard to aim in this game.
I had some AK looking gun but it was only single shot I think.
dont watch youtubers play
it really makes theg ame looks easy
because they have laser recoil
you can watch guides though
he always does labs and acts surprised when he laser kills people with his hk416 that has a scope
if you want to learn, watch people better than u...
of course it will look relatively easy
whats the fuel conditionner for
!wiki disposable syringe
should have guessed
!wiki GP coin
i heard it is, but youd need a sight on it ahahah
always better than some toz or shottie imo
but you can also customise it, mod it etc to make it better to your liking
Adar is fairly good. Basically a cheap m4
mhm
buy a rechargeable battery on the market and trade it to skier, much cheaper than buying straight to flea market
if you dont wanna look on scavs for one
Looking for someone to run labs with (I'm new to labs) I will bring you entry keycard
i have a docs case in my container, and everytime i enter a raid the money i put in is gone!?
i dont think you can put money in doc case
Cause you are buying something or doing insurance
you can put money in the docs case
or have a phone or second monitor with the maps and try to locate yourself and learn
its the best thing you could do
lemme dm you one sec
You can only bring a certain amount of $$$ into a raid now. THat changed after yesterday's update
is there a brightness slider in this?
YOOO I JUST HAD MY FIRST LEGIT EXTRACTION
^Congrats
MY ASSCHEEKS WERE FUCKING CLENCHED
I take it xp gained from scav dosn't trainsfer to pmc, right?
no
how do you rotate weapons in inventory?
R
dur
thansk
I must say
the community of this game is the least suck
that I've seen in a while
Some people are still toxic as fuck
oh you'll have those
but overall
its been quite helpufl
even the bigger streamers etc where lots of toxicity can come from
Especially in this channel people are p great
someone suggest mea cheap good loadout for m4a1?
man
you just get the point do you?
i literally asked a cheap good loadout for a m4a1 which i already have as a reward
does recoil control lower weapon sway? I was using an AK the other day and crouched and my dude was wobbling so much
I mean the only real benifit of an m4 over an adar is the full auto
But if u want to be so abrasive Volkov then so be it
Kids.....
Im never going to use a SKS ever again
Ree
Sks bad
Well.. I learned that now.
what are u going to use now
Inb4 delta, Vepr
I could perhaps get behind that 

well r i p
Well yes
Well
But no kinda
do i
You do

i dont know how to sell stuff
Man guess Imma be selling lab access keys from now on 
npnp
So.... If m61 has 68 pen... And 70 damage... Does that mean it's a 2 tap to the chest even against armor?
i mean sks is kinda pointless
Most ammo 2 taps chest if it pens armor
Are we talking regular sks or opsks, or both?
I love opsks 
@lapis mauve Yes, but at 68 pen, Isn't it guaranteed to pen?
holy shit factory scav runs are amazing
It should pen level 7, so pretty much yes
ehhh
Lol....
i snuck it as a scav and left with 3 adars and an m4
Just donât hit arms
M80 was taking too many shots on raiders đ
is it worth to upgrade my adar to m4a1 now that i can buy it from mechanic?
hate the fact that pscavs in factory shoot on sight..
nice acrimon
@fathom narwhal no
when there are PMC holed up still
just use adar
Raiders have more than 80 chest hp
what are raiders now again
Tanky bois on labs, and they spawn in reserve
If it penetrates, will the armor still absorb some of the damage?
Depends, if it barely pens then yes. If it pens easily I donât think so
So at 68 pen, it should still be a 2tap, maybe 3
if the bullets pens but splits it will absorb damage
if it doesnt split it will deal full
Should be 2 unless you hit arms
Sweet >:D
ALWAYS GET one tapped by a fucking mosin before i let out a shot of my heavily modded meta m4a1
đ¤Ą
fuck mosin
i want the new shiny ak-308 in tarkov
lol?
what rounds with mosin?
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Magpul_PMAG_.308_AC_10-round_M700_magazine
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page ak-308 for a direct link or !wiki search ak-308 for a list of all hits.
lol
jebaited

@silver dome ak-308 isnt in tarkov
it just came out irl
it fires huge 762x51 on full auto
Ak version of fal I guess?
might be, its the ak equivalent of a new rifle fn hernstal is making
and FN SCAR-H fires that round too
Scar is just a block of a rifle
When you open an extract on labs... Are there just raiders waiting behind the door?
Shoot its Christmas
I opened the garage door, and 5 raiders died to my nade...
They were all right behind it
Go be with family nerd
If itâs garage or hanger they are behind the door
And what Ryan

They will be the garage and area
Ah, alright
Atkeast if they do spawn in parking you can just let them come to you a bit easier
I keep dying to scavs and ive run out of guns ._.
And money?
i have 3k
Sounds like you're gonna have to scav run
Did you watch beginner guides to help you understand the game?

Then sell them and buy budget rifles
but why
dont i need armor too?
@lucid flax i started 2 weeks ago also not playing for 1.5 years, what helped me was to do scav runs on interchange and learn that map
you can earn a lot of money there, with relativly low risk
Donât get hit and you donât need armor
Scav run and grab some armor
Do interchange with scav, good chance you will find piles of bodies and nobody around
Having lvl 3 armor for scavs is helpful
For sure. Even paca helps. But if he has 3k heâs not getting armor
Although scav run and grab free stuff including armor
i also spawned like 4-5 times alrdy with a lab keycard as a scav
do scavs continually spawn on offline mode too?
Thsts why I said sell his p90 or whatever he has
Svd
You can get 4-5 veprkms for that price
đ
and after a while you can just buy whatever weapon
from my experience money is not rly an issue in that game
The amount of nades that raiders throw.... lmfao
Donât think so
So.... If i shoot a bullet with 8 penetration, but 155 damage, at class5 armor... Wtf happens?
It takes like 1 point of damage and the dude might take a point or 2 of blunt damage
Then he laughs and kills you
Lmfao... Going to test this theory
Or you shoot his legs
Leg meta
Theres an armor dmg thing to each round
But it will take a few rounds to zero armor till it pens chest
17% armor damage with the high damage .50 rounds XD
use rip ammo and shoot legs
Oh, I thought you were talking about rip or something
It's a flesh dmg round
Nah, i'm talking about ps12a
Basically hitting legs like these nubs suggest would zero someone's health in 3-4shots
I just use 7n1 or m80 and tap head or chest.
ok so i sold stuff from scav run so now i have 50k
7n1, what shoots that other than the mosin?
@lucid flaxnow build some veprkms you can get 3 of them
And much more reliable than pistol
who sells that
Market
Flea
For 9-14k
i need 2 horses for vep
Guys how do I refuel my canister?
Flea market
@lucid flaxno the market
Find or buy one
You don't anymore xD
Also you dont

im not level 5\

đ

You're sol then
photo
should i keep my guns or do i sell em
You died?
ive got like 7 adars
Use guns from scav runs until level 5
and my stash is getting full
@cold parrot put some decent parts and a good optic
so i need to get 2k exp, what should i do
So basically you cant refill them, you just have to find new ones or buy them?
And go to town on heads
Sell shit you arent gonna use 
ok i will sell
but if i sell the items i no longer have them
i found this nice loop of lootrunning on interchange mixed with scav runs on factory
My stash is full of guns that i built, used a few times, and wanted to try something else XD
i aint got money for that tquig
building guns smh
i just use the toz's and veprkm's i pick up
That's cus you apparently never sell your guns đ
My stash is filled with guns I yoinked from other players and am too afraid to use 
imagine having bling guns
^ that too, but i'm not afraid, i just don't die enough đ
when toz do trick
Exactly
smh good players
Why would I take that stacked out m4 I yoinked when I could just take a mosin and clap
I'm not a big fan of the m4 tbh
could it be my playstyle? is that why im so bad at this game?
I'm lvl 28 and have never used an m4
How xD
Don't use the adar either, I like AK's and opsks
Ar15s*
@cold parrot @bold kernel Would yall like to use an m4? :p
I only used m4âs for the quests
It's a simple yes or no :p
Always cool to try out a new gun aye
yes
Cost 65k
i like the adar alot
my whole kit is 65k

If yall can agree on a place to do a raid together, i'll bring you both an m4
Gotta spend money to make money
Don't expect me to stick around though, spawn in, you kill me and take the guns đ
: |
And you get a free dogtag đ
Or put up a trade for an ai-2 for an m4
that is why you bring only makarov
You've got nothing to lose ^^ He's just a wholesome gamer
well im in
I'd definitely take you up on that offer but can't game atm unfortunately
You can give weapons via fleamarket. The person just has to offer a shitty item and request m4 for trade
Let me just kit them out a bit, and grab some mags
sure
It's like a 3k fee
I don't want them to have to pay the taxes, it gets insanely high if you put a cheap item up for high price
Is it lower since it's a barter?
Which is 20k
Ahhhh
They'd only pay like 3k
oh sweeet
Well, that works too if yall would rather, dm me so we aren't clogging this chat up
So acriomon, goes to market, offers like a shitty bandage or something. And then requestes the m4 receiver
Quiglez just hits required search on m4 and should see his trade
Big brain moment
I would like an m4 too pls
Fuck off less, you're not a newbie, and i can't afford to hand them out to everyone on the discord XD
Don't worry, i still love you tho boo đ

inb4 stock veprkm
well, that makes sense since veprkm is all you use
Mod?
Ingame mod
mod??
Iâve never been able to find that chat. I click global chat and nothing happens
who is undascavatv
is he like a sherpa
i seem everywhere and he has a green name
How do you check your mag and see how many rounds you have left
And how do you adjust your walk speed to make less noise
@clever quartz scroll whell
you will see a little indication above your stance symbol in the lower left
Also would you suggest doing scav runs to get loot before going in with my PMC
So that I have some basic gear that isnât my only primary
Itâs the âXâkey+âscroll the mouse wheelâ
To adjust the walk speed?
@clever quartz only if you need to get resources
Yes
Okah
just scroll works
Okay*
What about checking your mag
I would suggest alternating between scav runs and pistol runs
Left alt+T
on a map like shoreline, it has good loot
just got a keytool
Ah okay
Iâm learning factory for my runs because itâs small
factory isnt a very good beginner map
I watched a lot of videos and they all said to do Customs
Customs is cucked rn
1, because of the tasks
Ya Iâve been hearing customs or shoreline also
Customs has the majority of early game tasks
^
how do i get the flea market running "live", sometimes i need to go in a raid or restart my game to recieve my messages
this is a good map for shoreline
keep it open on your phone or second monitor
while you are playing
Yeah Iâve been doing that
loot + spawns and extracts
Itâs just It takes me too long to figure out where I need to go
So like moving through places without dying
Stick to the edges?
Like if Iâm trying to get to the other side of the map
just stay off roads
and dont run
walk or crouchwalk
shoreline has a long timer, youve got time to walk
so like with the timer
is that how long I have till I have to extract?
and like do I have to go to the extractions that they give me
@clever quartz doubletap O on your keyboard while ingame
you get a timer and your extracts
go to the ones without the ???? as they are always open
yeah
Okay
that shoreline map has all the extracts
keys get you into special places that have good loot
Iâve been sticking to just killing a few scavs
on some maps
North you don't have to
skip keys for now
ye thats a good strat
Till I can buy some stuff ig
the only important keys are the movement ones and reload ,ads , interact
@clever quartz also create standard kit you run and write it down
items, mods, armor, guns etc
keep it cheap
asemble whenever you need it to spend less time making it
I can recommend the Vepr km
the extract at the customs factory gate how do i bring a friendly scav with me?
don't fuck with pistols @clever quartz
for a rifle
just get an assault rifle
is it possible to extract as a pmc on that evac?
they're pretty cheap
@bold kernel my flea market sometimes does not send me the money "live", i need to do a raid or restart the game
@stable nova works fine for me
north wanna duo ?
you always recieve the money right after someone bought it?
yes
you hav to accept the money
Iâm currently with family rn
So imma play later
If you wanna add me on discord sure thing
k
nah i mean i dont get the message, once i close the game and start it again its there
So if I buy some cheap AR with some meh attachments should I insure it
@clever quartz always insure guns and armor
Use the Vepr km AR
cheap asf, fires 7.62x39 and semi auto
So does insurance only protect it if It doesnât get taken
yeah
if its in the raid when it end
if someone else takes it and then dies you get it
goal is to make it so shitty that they donât take it lmao
Iâm American so the numbers of rubbles are always a little jarring
I see 20k and Iâm like đłđłđł
But I saw a video that said to buy the cheapest armor they have
And repair it if itâs damaged?
If you are gonna get armor get the 6b3 armor rig
No one ever takes it
Repair it ye
But don't buy it imo
Waste of money
The scavs at the power station on shoreline usually have it
So just go and kill those
Okay
I was playing customs and some PMC walked in and I had some shitty AK (idk the guns yet) and I swear I hit him like 6 times in the body was it just that his armor was good
It might have been the vpo209
Common on scavs
It fires 366tk which is the most garbage caliber in the game
It can't go thru anything
Yeah
T2 armor stops it dead in its tracks
I think it was
Totally worthless round
Iâll just stick to the gun you told me to get
I think I found my new favourite map
Any attachments?
Someone say verpkm
this @clever quartz
pog
@steady pilot early wipe wtf, vepr km is always good
Most mods are found on prapor lvl 1 and 2 or market if youndont have prapor lvl 2 for gp-25 buttpad or tt01 iron sight
Whenâs wipe
Long time
Okay I play rust so
wipes come with big updates
okay so same with rust
But wipe shouldn't be for a while
^
ah okay
It's when they have huge content or game changing issues
That need be played on a fresh wipe
and when they rebalance the economy
To help balance etc
is it a bug when I put on my comtac and get into a game they don't work, and I have to put them in my pack and then on my ears to work
its expermentation since this is beta
@warm roveri never have that issue lol
Iâve tried going in offline mode to learn the maps
But the game just doesnât load for some reason
Are you using wiki maps
maybe I have to buy new comtac from ragy, the old ones are broken
I found some website
@clever quartz oh yeah most offline are broken atm
lul
Itâs pretty good
!wiki customs
It had 3D buildings
No just use wiki
And stuff
Wiki for quests maps modding etc
Yeah it was wiki
If you want begginer guide check out pestily or deadlyslob
You said shoreline right
yes
Customs is how you learn game. You gotta do it
fairs
I mean Iâm not a bad shot
customs has a lot of quests but is kinda hard for new people imo
but not good if you are looking for gear
Everyone went through it
shoreline is king for easy stuff
@clever quartz not when they have t6 armor which you cant pen
Throw everything about fps out the window. This is a knowledge game not just a how well you shoot game@clever quartz
so i found an akmsn on interchange im waiting near exit should i wait for people to come by or just go?
