pseudo jay
#

lusty oracle
#

@celest sundial I'm good dude you

twilit patio
#

it saved my inventory

pseudo jay
#

@twilit patio frin where? :/

twilit patio
#

from the flea market

waxen forge
celest sundial
#

chilling, whats got you hung up

waxen forge
#

Click the cog wheel by My offers. Check the REMOVE BARTER.

twilit patio
#

@pseudo jay do you know how to go to the flea market???

lusty oracle
#

@celest sundial I'm in the channel which is begginer assintant channel

waxen forge
#

Or scroll down

#

and you will see the non-barter items

pseudo jay
#

yeah i do

twilit patio
#

just make sure as budra said to have the right filters

waxen forge
#

Level 2 therapist is junk box

twilit patio
#

i just bought it from flea

waxen forge
#

Usually cheaper than flea

#

Junk box hold Hideout and task items

lusty oracle
#

@celest sundial I have a trouble about finding the exits

waxen forge
#

Does NOT hold items that can be used by your PMC. No weapons, clothing, food, melee, ammo, etc.

twilit patio
#

@waxen forge i sell everything above 40k vaule do you think its not the best plan?

lusty oracle
#

@celest sundial and I'm dying so fast

pseudo jay
#

holy shit....that scav junkbox is around 1m rubles

waxen forge
#

Dpeends @twilit patio

twilit patio
#

@lusty oracle are you using the internet maps?

celest sundial
#

@lusty oracle google search the exit gates, then jump into a offline raid to learn them

lusty oracle
#

@celest sundial I do but it so confusing

twilit patio
waxen forge
#

Many people start collecting task items (and now Hideout items) day 1. That's what the junk box is for

celest sundial
#

theres plenty of maps you can download

lusty oracle
#

if I play with someone I can learn much better

twilit patio
#

@lusty oracle memorize important and big unique buildings

waxen forge
#

Also to level traders need to be spending/buying from them.

twilit patio
#

@lusty oracle the quicker you know where you are the best

lusty oracle
#

I was thinking that I have a good memory until the game

waxen forge
#

Should check flea to see if the flea price is substantially over trader price INLUDING TAX. If trader is equal then sell to trader

#

Therapist>Skier>Mechanic

twilit patio
#

lusty oracle

twilit patio

Never turn off sound

twilit patio

lusty oracle

You need to get used to the sounds

lusty oracle

severe orchid
waxen forge

waxen forge
#

When did you buy?

#

Just now?

severe orchid
#

waxen forge
#

Ok

#

They have to process it.

#

They are also doing an update today.

You should get an email when it's ready but since they are updating their systems may be busy today

#

Keep checking profile every 10 minutes or so.

Once your order is processed the Install button will show up

severe orchid
#

oh okay

#

it’s 11pm and i need to sleep now so

#

ill download tomorrow thank you man :))

#

i’ll see you in the battlefield tomorrow !!

waxen forge
#

No problem.

#

Welcome to EFT

#

First tip. Reset expectations from how you do in other shooters. This game is hard and has a STEEP learning curve. You will die a ton.

rich cloak
mossy geode
#

anyone tryna help me with my tremor headshots?

rich cloak
#

And how do you imagine that working out? pepeLaugh

mossy geode
#

what?

#

i literally get a tremor by my stim, then shoot two people in the head if they agree to help me 🤔

rich cloak
#

Ahhh

#

Okay

mossy geode
#

it's really not difficult lmao

steady pilot
#

Cant shoot friends

rich cloak
#

It doesn't work tho

steady pilot
#

Or party members rather

mossy geode
#

alright i only get MP443 headshots anyway

strange mural
#

yeah you need to fiddle with servers

steady pilot
#

What

mossy geode
#

HUH

strange mural
#

if you want to kill people you play with

steady pilot
#

No @ syn

#

Just break your leg. Get a suppressed rifle and camp on woods

#

Tap heads. Repeat.

mossy geode
#

one of those guys i see.

steady pilot
#

More like everyone in Towers server

turbid oriole
#

you have to download the launcher

severe finch
#

Does Shturman always spawn on Woods or is there a chance he isn't there at all?

steady pilot
#

The sniper guru

split vapor
#

His spawn is 35%

steady pilot
#

Boss spawns are never 100%

mighty jasper
#

Which items should I buy/sell to level up prapor?

#

I'm about 280k short

steady pilot
#

Anything

#

Anything you buy and sell is 1/3 loss

waxen forge
#

Yea just buy 5 baby Ak or something and sell right back

#

280K isn't much

mighty jasper
#

Oh that's it?

steady pilot
#

You gain money spent by buying AND selling

#

I usually end up leveling him anyway cause I buy a bunch of crap from him regularly

waxen forge
#

Think of "Spent" as Transacted instead

mighty jasper
#

I don't know, prapor is good but he never gives the best prices

#

there's always skier mechanic and ragman

steady pilot
#

For selling this is true

#

That's why no one recommends selling to prapor.

mighty jasper
#

Oh yeah, selling I meant

#

I found myself having 1m spent on skier and like 50k on prapor at some point

#

If we're on the topic of sellers, what should I be selling to jaeger?

urban sand
#

What 12g slugs is best in range?

calm nexus
#

none.

split vapor
#

Range more like Is it going to hit shit

calm nexus
#

never use shotguns for range

urban sand
#

Okay, what has best range.

#

I have to use it for punsiher on woods so. 🙂

calm nexus
#

wait.

mossy geode
split vapor
#

None

#

Unless we had rifled shotgun barrels those will help

waxen forge
#

I use shotguns for 1 specific reason. When the task demands it.

dawn vapor
#

soo how can we tell the difference between scav and player?

split vapor
#

Just get within 15 feet and you’ll be okay

waxen forge
#

Experience

fickle kettle
#

w8 when the update happen waw ?

waxen forge
#

If you are a PMC all are hostile so it really doesn't matter

#

Ai scav will not loot and will not have 2 weapons

calm nexus
#

ok, if you need the best range (dont expect any good results) go for either a "12/20 HP Slug Copper Sabot Premier" (BEST range) or a "12/70 AP-20 Slug" (Best AP)

dawn vapor
#

and what would be your take on how to get started as a beginner?

proper ginkgo
#

What are all the different inventories for? Rig, bag, pockets, etc? Where do I put ammo, food, meds, loot?

calm nexus
#

Scavs act like AI

#

they have paths, and they walk like bots

waxen forge
#

@proper ginkgo

calm nexus
#

players are usually less predictable, shoot in random patterns, and cant snipe you with a PM

waxen forge
calm nexus
#

im assuming ur talking about player scavs ofc

proper ginkgo
#

tyvm @waxen forge

calm nexus
#

normal players are ez to spot.

#

either hatchlings, medium gear or super terminators

#

youll know what i mean when u see them

waxen forge
#

@proper ginkgo Also recommend watching some streams. DeadlySlob, Pestily, Markstrom, Klean

mossy geode
#

quattroace

#

he's a god

calm nexus
#

see that guy over there with the cool looking armor and massive backpack? ye thats a player.

waxen forge
#

Deadly and Markstrom stream in the morning US eastern time zone.

#

Klean more afternoon

#

Pestily varies as he is Australia

wispy void
#

@dawn vapor learn the maps. I play offline mode before joining a server to learn where scavs will spawn and the extracts, then play as a scav to learn before jumping to your pmc once you are comfortable. Start with Customs

calm nexus
#

see THAT guy with literally nothing? player.

mossy geode
#

medium gear can look like scavs at times btw @waxen forge

dawn vapor
#

ty frosty

#

and bud

calm nexus
#

ye but u can kind of tell the difference

urban sand
#

Thanks @calm nexus !

waxen forge
#

Uh sure @mossy geode Not sure where that came from

calm nexus
#

np

hearty sky
#

Why do i get the message " 1502 you dont have enought money to pay the tax " when i have enough rub for a fee to sell dollars?

dawn vapor
#

so if i run out of stuff to use do i have to start going in naked or should i just wait for scav everytime?

mossy geode
#

someone was saying how easy it was to distinguish the difference between players and scavs, you said there's "medium gear" players so

calm nexus
#

either

#

@dawn vapor watch tutorials, and learn the maps

#

it will take time

#

and u WILL die.

#

but, youll learn

wispy void
#

@dawn vapor either. But you should play as your scav at every opportunity at first. If nothing else you can spawn in and go to the extract right away

waxen forge
#

Wasn't me

#

If you are low on gear/$ then you should use scav to make money/gain gear @dawn vapor . Go in and avoid fights, avoid players, and scavs.

#

GO to interchange and loot PC's in Olie and Goshan..maybe tech stores.

#

Get out and sell it all but keep the gear

#

Use the gear offline to practice

#

20 minutes later scav again on Interchange and loot more PC's and tech stores

#

Sell it all. Keep the kit. Use the kit offline

#

Now u have $ and 2 kits.

#

Keep doing it.

#

Money is easy to make if you go about it correctly

wispy void
#

offline is helpful to learn the map and the general locations of scavs plus try out your gear without fear of losing it

dawn vapor
#

ok 😛

hearty sky
#

Why do i get this message?

dawn vapor
#

tax D:

plucky goblet
#

probably because you dont have enough money to pay the tax

hearty sky
#

but i do

waxen forge
#

What are you selling? Rubles for US $

hearty sky
#

USD to Rubles

#

fee 28k rubles, and i have 89k

#

what freaking tax now?

waxen forge
#

Not sure honestly.

wispy void
#

maybe because of the update that is apparently going on?

mossy geode
#

that's always been a thing and always will @hearty sky

waxen forge
#

I don't sell money

#

So never have encountered it

mossy geode
#

though you should not have done the "require all" option

waxen forge
#

You will need the US $ for task anyway

split vapor
#

Maybe cheaper not doing it as a pack

waxen forge
#

And if you plan to run M4/HK stuff

mossy geode
#

same tax*

mighty jasper
#

Is there a "normal" extract in Reserve?

#

Like, without any requirements?

#

Everything seems either random or overkill

#

like "drop your backpack"

waxen forge
#

As PMC there is no "Normal"

#

Scavs have heat pipe and hole in wall which is just an area

#

The PMC exfil are "dynamic" exfil similar to labs exfil

split vapor
#

Not like milbase is supposed to be easy anyways

waxen forge
#

Tarkov is not supposed to be easy

split vapor
#

Train is the easy exit

#

Then hermetic door

#

Sewer

#

I'm just waiting for the 500 people to come in saying "Help my game won't load" when EFT goes offline to install the update

Can you repair something with 0 durability?

I just extracted as a scav with killa body armour but its 0/60 durability

waxen forge
fervent stone
#

oh , thx . I see the section now

frozen bone
#

does the skill "burnout" or whatever they added in the latest patch apply out of raid?

uncut narwhal
#

I just looted a Lab key Testing area key, it's worth like 75-80k. As a pretty much completely new player, is it worth keeping for the future or selling?

frozen bone
#

like searching items sold by traders?

dusky topaz
#

@uncut narwhal The testing area key is a low profit key for labs, entry to labs requires a keycard that is valued at around 200k give or take. Even if you keep the key for late game,when you have enough gear and experience to go labs there are better areas that don't require keys that you can quickly loot and get out.

uncut narwhal
#

So I should just sell it then?

dusky topaz
#

do you have the flea market

uncut narwhal
#

Yeah

dusky topaz
#

then see where u get a better deal and sell it yes

uncut narwhal
#

Okay cool, ty

dusky topaz
#

the 75-80k like you said will do you more good then keeping a key that isnt even that good

rotund falcon
#

Any advice on Tarkov shooter pt.1?

what does a cms do?

waxen forge
#

CMS as well as the full surgery kit will heal dead limbs/stomach

@rotund falcon shoot scavs with the mosin if theyre 50m away
if theyre not, run back until youre far enough and hope they havent killed you yet and shoot them

cyan wigeon

Is there a way to climb ladders

waxen forge
#

No

cyan wigeon
#

I saw this gentleman on the roof of this building and I don’t know how to get to the top

waxen forge
#

He's a scav

#

He spawns there

cyan wigeon

So I can’t get his shit?

waxen forge

No

noble flower
#

20" barrel is the longest you can have on m4?

sonic lake
#

yes

noble flower
#

hmm, I bought a 20" for HK, doesnt fit my m4 >.<

sonic lake
#

theres a 20" for ARs/M4s

noble flower
#

yeah found it, but they really gotta fix their linked search, I couldnt use my RIS handguard with it

#

but if I link search the barel, it doesnt show any handguards whatsoever

waxen forge
#

Edit preset

sonic lake
#

^

waxen forge
#

Way easier

#

Just take the time to examine everything in flea so you have all part options

noble flower
#

it would just be a lot more simpler if the linked searched worked rather that go into edit preset everytime for a single part

rotund falcon
#

Doing offline labs to practice for a run

sonic lake
#

it does work

#

its just not search for compatibility

#

if it goes onto your upper

#

itll show up

stark moat
#

What's linked search?

sonic lake
#

right click a gun part

#

itll show you what it goes on and what goes on it

waxen forge
#

Right click on a weapon and it shows compatible parts

stark moat
#

Ooh, nice

waxen forge
#

HOWEVER I tell people to upgrade workbench in Hideouts. Examine all weapons and weapon parts on flea and Use "Edit Preset"

#

As it will show compatibility.

noble flower
#

meh, ofc I cant use a side sight using this barrel and the only handguard available for it xD

sonic lake
#

?

#

examine all parts man

noble flower
#

?

sonic lake
#

the 20in takes most of the handguards

#

and most of those handguards can take canted sights

noble flower
#

in edit preseet, all handguard that was shown were had red text, only one that ditn was the RIS II

rich cloak
#

@noble flower what gun?

#

?

noble flower
#

maybe gasblock

#

screwed it up

sonic lake
#

you can put canted on the RIS though?

Hidden stashes around the map

kind canyon
#

I see people hipfire alot is that generally the best way to shoot at closer ranges? just not worth it to ads?

zealous forge
#

The loot table is really random but you get a decent profit

dawn vapor
#

hrmm ty

zealous forge
#

Also Scav Run in interchange

waxen forge
#

Hipfire is very good for close range

dawn vapor
#

o so what is the visual of the hidden stash?

wispy void
waxen forge
#

Some look like the top of pain cans in the ground

#

And some are more like wooden/camouflaged covers.

dawn vapor

hrmm ty

I'm just gonna watch videos of people who actually know how to play the game until I can play :p

@dapper dirge when the scav hits a lucky headshot

dapper dirge
#

😂

weary badge
#

@cyan wigeon I'm new to this game myself but what made me go from where you are at now to getting some kills and being able to extract is 2-3 days of offline practice with difficulty set to "impossible" and number of NPC's to high

#

Also pick one cheap gun and stick to it

dapper dirge
#

Adar is a great start, slap a holo and go to factory for 2-10 runs and make a mill doing it

waxen forge
#

Factory is not a good map for beginners

dapper dirge
#

it is actually, do 1-2 offline with no scavs take a walk around, figure out a good chokepoint like tunnels and its easy pickings, or is it just me?

waxen forge
#

Just u

#

I'm never recommending new people play Factory to learn the game

#

NO time to loot, multiple angles to cover,

#

It's EFT version of COD

#

Not how the rest of the game is played

tender void
#

essentially actually factory is very good for newbies

dapper dirge
#

then my friends are dicks cause thats where iv spent most of my 80+ hours

tender void
#

IF THEY ONLY DO FACTORY

#

that is the closest to COD that you will ever get

native drum
#

Should I try to get a small sicc case too keep in my alpha container? Do you guys think it is worth it?

dapper dirge
#

but i did earn enough in one day to get my scav box

tender void
#

and it does give good...tactical expereince if you running a squad

#

@native drum yes

waxen forge
#

Agree to disagree

tender void
#

@waxen forge nope...

#

re-read what i said

#

XD then disagree on taht

#

or try to

native drum
#

Is that the best way to get the most out of my alpha except getting a kappa container?

tender void
#

@native drum dont worry too much about your container

#

if you have the money for a SICC case....why not?

waxen forge
#

I'm saying in my 2000 hours I have learned a lot. I'm never going to agree with factory being a good map for new people'

#

So I agree to disagree.

tender void
#

if they never want to leave it, wanna learn how to shoot, dont mind resetting profile

#

essentially and always run with squads, its fine for new players

half ice
#

Hey guys! I'm new to the game 🙂

tender void
#

@half ice welcome

native drum
#

Okey awesome 😄 @tender void

marble blade
#

welcome @half ice

half ice
#

Thank you!

maiden crater
#

@half ice Welcome...and me too ^^

dapper dirge
#

@waxen forge iv earned a scavbox and 15 adars that are maxed out and i cant hold anything else in my stash and im on EOD, i have an equal share of player and scav loot in there just cause its so small and lines of sight are so short i dont have to worry about being domed from half a map away

#

factory is a fun map

#

once you know it all

main grail
#

servers back up?

waxen forge
#

That's nice

half ice
#

Any good guide I should follow first? To get first impressions, key bidings, and important information?

waxen forge
#

I'm still never recommending it as a noob map

tender void
#

thing is...that is a small experience

#

if someone's aim is shit...

#

they will lose everythign

waxen forge
tender void
#

if you solo que factory, you are most likely against a 5 stack

#

so, you do not want to go solo, and as a newbie, they may not know this

waxen forge
tender void
#

as a 100% new player....factory is garbage

marble blade
#

ew factory, its such confined space

tender void
#

you will lose your whole stash

maiden crater
#

@half ice There's some great beginner guides on YT 🙂

tender void
#

since even if you get a kill....your instinct will be to go loot

#

and that is when you get domed

half ice
#

Thanks @waxen forge

dapper dirge
#

i solo 90% of the time and it works fine for me, must just be lucky

prisma stag
#

hi folks. just wondering: if I upgrade from standard to eod will be my SC just replaced with another one or I'll have both of them?
and if both - is there any chance that someone will want to buy alpha at the flea?

long spear
#

theres not much loot on factory either for that matter

tender void
#

@dapper dirge ....then yes

#

@prisma stag na it gives you a message

marble blade
#

real loot is in shoreline

waxen forge
#

Interchange for money runs

dapper dirge
#

@long spear im not looking for stuff to find, more for peoples loot to take from them

waxen forge
#

Shoreline loot is locked aside from stashes and what you find in village/pier

#

Interchange 99% of the loot is unlocked

long spear
#

reserve has more money than interchange

acoustic timber
#

do new weapons tend to be expensive?

long spear
#

as long as you have an extract plan

acoustic timber
#

like on the flea?

#

i rlly want a sr25

marble blade
#

crazy expensive

waxen forge
#

Should be buying from traders

#

Flea is people making profit

acoustic timber
#

what trader would

#

sr25

#

be

waxen forge
#

Level traders...but from them

#

At level 1 traders you aren't buying high end weapons

prisma stag
#

@tender void sorry, didn't get your response. can you elaborate a bit?

waxen forge
#

Use what you can get

#

As a beginner gear is the last thing you need to worry aobut.

#

Learn the game. Get good

#

Then worry about gear.

#

I'll take an experienced guy with ok gear over a noob with top tier shit every time

maiden crater
#

It's hard though, there's so much delicious gear in this game ^^

dawn vapor
#

since i got no space its no worry for me 😛

#

no use if you cant even pick em up

tender void
#

@waxen forge agree...ammo is what matters and the experienced guy with a fking....mosin or adar, hell even a mp5 i would trust

acoustic timber
#

i just wear usec trooper armor

#

because its really good armor

#

and its cheap

#

mid ranged

tender void
#

cuz I know that guy prob gonna be running 6.3 for the mp5 and knowing hipfire and aims

#

@prisma stag so....nowadays if you upgrade, they send the upgrade in a message

#

you no longer need to reset profile for the items, you get it straight up

#

your case however is replaced

prisma stag
#

now I got it, thanks

tender void
#

np

misty portal
tender void
#

XD

#

game hates you

wooden gyro
tender void
#

and ONLY you

misty portal
#

tender void
#

hahaa

#

naa uypdates

#

so....they are installing now

wooden gyro
#

they are

tender void
#

the check update thing wont register it

#

just wait

prisma stag
#

at the begining I thought that you wrote something like "you'll have both of them but won't be able to put alpha to the flea" but now it is clear, thanks @tender void

tender void
#

erm

fickle kettle
#

please guys just read birbsweat

misty portal
#

wow. of all odds, the exact minute i want to play tarkov its updating

tender void
#

alpha on flea

#

is sht

#

you don't put alpha on flea

#

anymore

#

read?

#

what???

#

what does that say???? I cannot!!!

prisma stag
#

yeah and I don't think anyone with good mental condition want to buy it anyway

tender void
#

wHy GaMe nO wORk!!

misty portal
#

bruh chill

#

i got the game yesterday, been ignoring that bar since its just been flashing some message that hasnt applied to me

tender void
#

bruh...you have good timing to be the 15th person that asked that

misty portal
#

figured if it was updating it would tell me through the bottom right like it has

fickle plank
#

question, do you lose melee weapons that aren't the knives?

tender void
#

so you chill!

#

@fickle plank any melee weapon in scabbard NEVER gets lost

#

@misty portal if you got triggered by 5 people making jokes.......ohhh boy

fickle plank
#

Okay, i was wondering bout that

fickle kettle
#

@tender void bruh they just said extened for 30 min :v

tender void
#

imagine us who have been here for 15+ people asking why game not up

misty portal
#

can you calm down geez. i just asked a question and you had to go and mock me about it

tender void
#

imagine us who have been here since .12

#

@misty portal ya.... calm down dude

fickle kettle
#

now can you calm down birbwise

tender void
#

jeez....i told you already, you just have good luck to be one of many

#

so we poking a bit of fun at you.....calm it bro

#

man!

acoustic timber
#

nooooooooooooo

prisma stag
#

and I have one more question. why can't I launch the game? :D

tender void
#

ah right... extended duration

#

^_^

misty portal
#

yeah well forgive me for interpreting you actually mocking a genuine question as a bit insulting. I know im not the first to ask it, i got the damn game yesterday i don't notice everything

tender void
#

@prisma stag try alt+f4!

#

@misty portal you are forgiven!!!

#

^_^

#

i saw that deletion!!!! keke

prisma stag
#

nope, thanks. I believe "echo Y | format c:" would work better

tender void
#

wait, waht does that do?

#

oh....wait

#

hahahah

#

👍

prisma stag
#

nothing nowadays but back to 95/98/me and so on up to XP...

tender void
#

you did that in cmd?

prisma stag
#

yep, once on 98 installed in vmware

tender void
#

oh god........i don't wanna look in support right now

supple oak
#

hey umm how to actually get the lvl 9 sniper skill with the qexaustion and all

#

should i start grinding it a long time before the quest or something?

tender void
#

guess so

#

i honestly have no idea now also

#

i have 0 str still

fossil patrol
#

Is there a website for gun builds?

tender void
#

was gonna grind that wayyy later on

#

but now with exhaustion.........im fked

#

@fossil patrol if you new....

#

dont worry about it man

#

justt run some adar, with a scope

long spear
#

may not be updated regularly idk

fossil patrol
#

I’m newish but I’ve come across some really good guns

tender void
#

don't use them

fossil patrol
#

My stash it pretty stocked for my class

tender void
#

my suggestion....

fossil patrol
#

Why not?

tender void
#

unless you have no gear fear then........sure

fossil patrol
#

Ty crosstie

#

Nah I enjoy playing my games

round pagoda
#

i sell anything other than sks and adars cuz i know ill be mad when i lose the loot xD

tender void
#

^_^ good attitude! I cant yet

#

same

supple oak
#

oh wait theres a quest with lvl 12 sniper skill yea thats totally possible with the exhaustion. if you cant even get search skill or endurance leveled anymore

tender void
#

I essentially have builds I use, and I sell everything else that i know I will be afraid to lose

fossil patrol
#

Got a decked out m1a off a lvl 45

#

Dimes him with a ska

#

Sks*

#

Domed*

#

Lol

tender void
#

i honestly have no idea how to level skills nowadays

round pagoda
#

i killed a fully decked out player during the nigth with a shotgun

#

his buddy was camping the extract and i died

#

on factory

fossil patrol
#

Oof that blows

round pagoda
#

he had nigth vision and the biggest backpack in the game

#

a m4 and a mp7, i was so madd when i died xD

tender void
#

then i honestly doubt he had only 1 buddy at the extraction

round pagoda
#

yeah probably

tender void
#

sweet, game should be up soon

round pagoda
#

what level are you acertorix?

tender void
#

atm....18?

marble latch
#

getting the same error, was going to do a "quick" raid now!

round pagoda
#

im at 16 xD

dawn vapor
#

nice

#

i am still 2 or 3

tender void
#

well...i know why i am 18

round pagoda
#

i started like less than a week ago tho

tender void
#

started a while ago

dawn vapor
#

i started a few hours ago 😛

tender void
#

however i essentially this time only had time to play

#

erm

supple oak
#

so basically from seing how skills work i think you need to play with a mosin from lvl 1 to lvl 40 something only with mosin then you can get close to lvl 12

round pagoda
#

i die all the time to squads 😄

tender void
#

like one day a week

#

cuz real life is a btch

#

@supple oak not anymore

#

skill exhaustion

supple oak
#

@tender void getting 20-30 raids a day where you get 5xp every match for a few months

#

would work

tender void
#

....

supple oak
#

soo nolife with a sniper and lvl 12 will be yours till the end of the wipe 😄

tender void
#

ya but i cannot do 20-30 raids a day lol

#

rip my life on that

#

this week is the one week where i got time now kinda

mint hawk
#

Reeeeeeeeeeeeee

#

this is taking long

grave helm
#

I hope nothing broke after the update

bold kernel
#

Wrong mind set when changes to code are being made...

#

I expect everything broken!

#

my guns will explode like it's far cry!

grave helm
#

I know that a lot of stuff breaks after an update

#

Having a positive mindset while also knowing smth bad can happen isn't wrong tho 😛

bold kernel
#

I don't think expecting my guns to explode is negative. an exciting bug to discover..

grave helm
#

lmao

bold kernel
#

found some before update i'll be testing as well

long spear
#

i hope my guns explore

#

sounds like a rather interesting bug

rotund falcon
#

Is trooper armor worth buying? It only covers the chest and back so I was wondering

bold kernel
#

it's only class 4 I think? but it protects vitals... lowprofile if you want to have more camo stand out

#

might be lighter then some things in it's class as well

tender void
#

trooper is good

#

if you have angles

prisma stag
#

btw, on some of the news channels I saw something like weapon jamming. is it really happens when weapons durability is getting low? have someone experienced this?

near pier
#

hey, can anyone explain to me how tf i find what scopes work on what guns?

fickle kettle
#

@near pier preset waw

near pier
#

w0t?

fickle kettle
#

there is a funtion ingame

#

call preset

long spear
#

you must have workbench level 1 in hideout for presets

near pier
#

^just got that

long spear
#

then right click gun and choose edit preset

near pier
#

so itll just tell me what scopes i can use?

fickle kettle
#

it show you everything about the gun

long spear
#

but know this, some scopes you have to put a rail or some part to attach to the gun, so you may not see everything that can go on it from the initial preset screen until you add the first part

fickle kettle
#

go ahead and explore birbwise

#

that is you need to w8 for 30 more min dou

near pier
#

sadly

prisma stag
#

and yeah, you have to inspect a thing to see it in preset

near pier
#

i went to buy new workshoes and came back to "An installation of the patch is extended for another 30 minutes. We apologize for any inconvenience caused." "An installation of the patch is extended for another 30 minutes. We apologize for any inconvenience caused."

#

thx btw

main grail
#

its up now

#

Miss me with that aheago shit PEPEREEE1PEPEREEE2

trim pelican
worldly bloom
#

hello there! so i need to get the bronze pocket watch for prapor! im a level 6 and ive just gotten the hang of modding a tiny bit, anyone out there who could help me out?

rich cloak
#

@worldly bloom what do you need help with?

worldly bloom
#

i dont know where the pocket watch is and im not familiar with customs

rich cloak
#

@trim pelican the problem with these keys is that they just aren't that amazing

#

@worldly bloom oh okay

misty thorn
#

im watching it now i havent done it yet either! hah

worldly bloom
#

oh snhap thanks @misty thorn

rich cloak
#

Great you 2 can Team up for it

worldly bloom
#

@misty thorn im good to do that if you want to do 2 runs!

rich cloak
#

You only need one

misty thorn
#

sure we can try haha

worldly bloom
#

you can grab first run

#

oh cool

rich cloak
#

Task items are endless

worldly bloom
#

awesome

rich cloak
#

They just dissappear on your screen

#

Dont get the key from dorms tho

#

Buy it on the fleamarket instead

#

It should be really cheap

worldly bloom
#

okay thanks drago

rich cloak
#

Happy to help

stable nova
#

is offline mode not working?

worldly bloom
#

@rich cloak if @misty thorn is down we can 3 man this and look for extra loot!

stable nova
#

i wanna just test my new monitor and gpu :/

#

local game is starting and nothing happens

misty thorn
#

I am 100% down hah

rich cloak
#

@stable nova customs and reserved didn't work before the patch don't know if they do now

stable nova
#

tried woods and shoreline

#

not working

#

someone in general chat also said its not working at all for him

rich cloak
#

@worldly bloom usually you either go for tasks or for gear not both

stable nova
#

argh i have nothing else installed where i can check my new hardware 🙂

worldly bloom
#

@rich cloak roger that, seems like a smart thing haha

rich cloak
#

Spiff my general advice is to set a certain goal before going into a raid and focusing on that goal. Afterwards you wanna get out. Obviously no plan survives a combat encounter and you sometimes have to change your plan

#

But in general : set a goal, achieve it, fuck off

#

Will pull your survival rate up

worldly bloom
#

will do cheif!

fickle kettle
#

VPO-215 thinkingpepe

trim pelican
#

yeah they are shit thats why im selling them lol

fickle kettle
#

oh

#

reasson ?

trim pelican
#

talking about my keys

turbid terrace
#

So I got this game 3 days ago and walked away from xbox finally i found out hard way not to join random people cuz they just kill u for ur stuff need to meet people that wouldn't mind running some stuff for loot

rich cloak
#

Yes

#

As a beginner you shouldn't do off raid healing in general

#

Run your scav

grave helm
#

run scavs, do flea market

rich cloak
#

A full heal is about 10k as far as I remember

grave helm
#

otherwise pay for healing and get into the next raid

rich cloak
#

And that stacks up quite fast

#

There is a lot of prep and stash management to do so maybe do that in the meanwhile

#

Well yeah

#

Run scav then

long spear
#

once you hit level 5 you can use grizzly kits for off raid healing

#

i believe they are still the most cost efficient

#

buying them off the flea market that is

rich cloak
#

Yeah they still aren't cheap tho

gritty cobalt
#

Anyone willing to group and help me out with a quest?

rich cloak
#

Full grizzly is like 38k

long spear
#

well if you are off raid healing theres not much point to use anything but a grizzly unless you wanna lose money

rich cloak
#

Yeah but as a beginner your money is short and spending 40k for something that you could wait on is a hard sell

long spear
#

but thats irrelevant if he plans on healing back up when he dies

#

might as well buy it

rich cloak
#

True

#

I'm just saying

long spear
#

i mean theres literally no point to wait on it lol

#

not sure what you are saying : P

rich cloak
#

?

#

How is there no point in waiting?

supple oak
#

which bullets should i use with infrantry mosin i forgot :D?

rich cloak
#

@supple oak lps or 7n1

#

7n1 makes sure that you can kill thicc bois

#

Lps is cheaper

#

But lps is fine

bold kernel
#

is this where i ask more experienced players to help? 😂

#

I hate 4 mans on customs

rich cloak
#

@bold kernel yes

#

@bold kernel trust me 4 mans a Re good on every map

bold kernel
#

it would be sick if someone could show me how to profit in raid

#

there's no loot for 4 mans on customs lol

#

i make it out but when i do i barely make any money

rich cloak
#

@bold kernel grab stuff get out pepeLaugh

#

You'll learn what items are good money per slot value

bold kernel
#

examples pls

#

lol

#

i just grab everything

rich cloak
#

One advice I can give is that weapons have bad slot value

bold kernel
#

also what is sherpa

rich cloak
#

A sherpa is a bsg endorsed player who helps new players

grave helm
#

is the Christmas Tree Decoration ball worth smth?

bold kernel
#

oh how do i use it

rich cloak
#

!sherpa

how do i know if the sherpa worked

pseudo mural
#

VPO 215 ....meh

#

=\

split vapor
#

its trash

pseudo mural
#

I tried

#

mosin is still 600000000000x better

#

but I have a feeling you're gonna see a lot of vpo 215s on scavs

mighty jasper
#

Is there a way to reduce my self-hearing?

#

Like I don't want to be hearing my own footsteps that's really impractical information.

#

Or atleast I don't want to be hearing them louder than the people next to me

bold kernel
#

is game broke?

mighty jasper
#

I think so

#

Mine wont open as well

bold kernel
#

@mighty jasper uh

#

just slow walk

#

whilst crouching

#

or stand still

#

Wearing headphones helps @mighty jasper Not gssh headphones though

#

tarkov down for others too?

#

yes

#

f

mighty jasper
#

@bold kernel Are these the headphones ragman LL1 sells?

bold kernel
#

Yes

mighty jasper
#

Oh/

#

Where else do I get headphones for cheap?

bold kernel
#

did you guys get kicked out of a raid or

#

@mighty jasper flea

#

then level 2 ragman

mighty jasper
#

How much?

bold kernel
#

sells comtacs

#

then level 3 ragman

#

sells sordins

#

The flea market, I recommend comtacs but it's personal preference

#

sordins

#

comtacs are like 20k

mighty jasper
#

oh

#

thats double the price :/

#

Well worth it though I'm sure

bold kernel
#

I recommend finding one you like and sticking with it

#

👏 sor 👏 dins

mighty jasper
#

The cheaper the better tbf

bold kernel
#

Or just play bigger maps and don't run headphones at all

mighty jasper
#

Are the gssh known for any issues?

bold kernel
#

lmao good luck using that logic on anything in this game @mighty jasper

#

yeah

#

they suck

mighty jasper
#

Why/

bold kernel
#

in real life they're awful

#

They make your ears bleed

#

in the game they're awful too

#

cuz it's realistic

mighty jasper
#

I... dont really understand what makes them bad

bold kernel
#

can't you hear?

#

or rather not hear

mighty jasper
#

They saved my life multiple times

bold kernel
#

because of the ear damage

mighty jasper
#

except for this time

bold kernel
#

bro

#

the only headphones you've ever used

mighty jasper
#

where I was walking and barely heard the guy walking in a bush next to me

bold kernel
#

are the gsshes

mighty jasper
#

No

bold kernel
#

you literally have no point of reference

mighty jasper
#

I had com and sport

bold kernel
#

well

mighty jasper
#

I just didn't notice much of a difference

bold kernel
#

what

mighty jasper
#

I could hear footsteps here i could hear footsteps there

bold kernel
#

i think you might need hearing aid then lmao

mighty jasper
#

I do yearly hearing tests, my ears are fine

#

Cheers though

bold kernel
#

They're not bad per se. None of them are particularly better than the other. Just find a pair that you like

mighty jasper
#

Is there any guide on these headphones?

grave helm
#

yes

#

veritas made one I think

mighty jasper
#

I just can't really afford much stuff nowadays

#

I lost about half a million roubles today

bold kernel
#

It's just that most people tend to dislike gssh's because they have a very harsh sound to them

pseudo mural
#

Wow the game is running like a bag of smashed assholes

mighty jasper
#

Oh I love veritas

bold kernel
pseudo mural
#

2 minutes 22 seconds to get from "play" to being able to click buttons

bold kernel
mighty jasper
#

Seems marginal

grave helm
#

@pseudo mural why? xd 😄 I got perfect performance from the game

bold kernel
pseudo mural
#

I have no clue

#

it's taking FOREVER to load

mighty jasper
#

That's supposedly in Dbs I'm assuming?

grave helm
#

still trying offline?

pseudo mural
#

and I'm on a 1gbps connection, on a evo 970pro

bold kernel
pseudo mural
#

no im just trying to load profile data

grave helm
#

I think my game is fucked aswell now

#

Made it out of a raid in factory and killed 2 ppl (no performance problems) but now im stuck at loading

bold kernel
pseudo mural
#

yuuuup, hopefully they didnt just break shjit

grave helm
#

I hope I dont lose my loot xd

pseudo mural
#

Kebab, those graphs mean nothing without context

bold kernel
#

here's your context

#

because apparently

#

raw data has no meaning

grave helm

nvm I made it out < 3

...

#

the raw data doesn't even show what he's measuring

bold kernel
#

"ambient sound outdoors"

pseudo mural
#

how exactly can it show meaning when it doesn't show what measurement he's using?

#

in what?

bold kernel
#

the game?

mighty jasper
#

I think these are Dbs

bold kernel
#

lmfao

pseudo mural
#

no..like

#

what measurement is he using

#

is it Dbs?

bold kernel
#

uhh

mighty jasper
#

Or on a similar, logarithmic scale identical to that of Dbs

bold kernel
#

the universal measure

#

of sound?

mighty jasper
#

assuming it's Dbs

pseudo mural
#

ya, same Clase

mighty jasper
#

So, by that logic

#

For reference

pseudo mural
#

Kebab, I meant, it showed no context on what any of that actually means

#

is a high # the best? or low?

mighty jasper
#

10Dbs means double the strength of the sound in our ear

Although by scientific terms it's 3db

hi

mighty jasper
#

But since we are humans

Hi Jello

mighty jasper
#

A 3db difference would only make roughly 10% a difference in sounds.

What does offline mode do

bold kernel
#

man i wonder which one is better given that no headphones is the worst option

#

@cyan wigeon lets you play vs ai

#

or by yourself

#

to explore the map

cyan wigeon
#

And I can keep the stuff I loot?

bold kernel
#

hell no

#

lmao

cyan wigeon
#

If I die with my kit do I lose it if I’m in offline mode

bold kernel
#

no

cyan wigeon
#

Ok

#

Fanks

mighty jasper
#

You lose nothing in offline mode

#

No matter what

#

The servers could crash, you'll be just fine
