ok i got a few hours wanna run something for xp?
Sure, Iβm not on my pc rn. I will be in 30mins
ohh ok
If thatβs fine with you?
as long as i dont pass out at my pc. finished 16 hour day at work, Medical
So if i dont respond for a bit i could be asleep at the keys
just pm me
Sure
Oof this player scav was pretending to be AI and shot me afterwards
I wont lie ive done that before . .
Can anybody show me where on a map that the usec stash on customs is?
... mosin.. omg dude you lost a gold mine.. at least... what ive been told, i die with mine every time..
shotgun has been my friend recently
looted a guy with 3 stacks of ap shotgun slugs.. ive falling in love..
@split vapor can i get link to that map?
!wiki customs
I was needing help unlocking the last vendor
woods runs
Someone else needed him too but was lvl 8 and wasnt home yet
ok
Ive only done a couple wood runs, have not made it out alive yet
i get too turned around and either die to randomness or dont extract because i go the wrong way
woods so far = my cryptonite
Woods is not the map id be playing if new.
Need for quest.. hard to avoid to get the last vendor
@grand elm can i dm you real fast because i need advice here and someone to trow ideas back and worth with, this is getting annoying
this bronze pocket watch is so hard to get π¦
hey
how does one apply as sherpa?
of course @marble blade
i've just recently starated playing EFT after buying this gave back in 2017 and rage quiting cause i suck at pvp games lmao, but i've been playing 99% offline in customs and i think i've got atleast most extraction memorized, is there anything else i should learn?
i've also done an occasional scav run... but those always end in death pretty quick for me cause i suck lmao
i did run for extract once cause i spawned in with a keycard once, but its useless to me and im not high enough level to use the flea market
don't go to dorms, it's a bloodbath
isn't some of the best loot there though?
@tardy turret Lol yeah
well i guess i hsould just start small first lmao but even then. my luck with spawns is terrible and i always spawn like 10 mins late 50% of the time with a person right next to me almost
but anyways for the keys like for the customs warehouse is that a random drop on scavs?
Dorms solo can be rough, cause if there's a squad the only place worth going for them is dorms typically
and yea i learned to stay far away from there unless theres only like 10 minutes left and ijust scavenge the dead bodies for whats left lmao
rarely do that anyways since ive only played scav like 10 times so far xd
really want to level my pmc though but scared to loose my stuff
you shouldn't be afraid to lsoe your items.. its still Beta and even fi you run out of the cash it's easy to get it back from scav runs
just accept the fact that you will lose lots of stuff
every death will make you better and less likely to lose it next time
and also.. last option is to restart your account
Any1 wanna hlp out a new player. Only got 6 hours of game time and needing hlp with quests.
and like hawky said scav run for gear
i know i can reset my account but i dont wanna do that, and scav runs for gear yea .. heh if i can ever survive xd
@craggy halo Best advice I can give is use #pvp-lfg and post what level you are and try to find people who have the same quests as you and do them together.
I would also recommend doing some scav runs on interchange @tardy turret
is that the mall?
its super easy to extract, you don't need to go through any choke points or pvp areas
yep
customs is pretty shitty in that regard because getting to an extract involves crossing over the middle of the map
gonna need to play that offline to learn it then, only ever played customs xd
you could just spawn in and run to extract if you really needed some gear
You have to insure your gear
^
that means that all gear other player sdont take off you
don't got the money for that π
you get back in ~1-2days
it's always worth to insure though
even if you get back 1 or 2 items
but all i have is a shitty ak so i don't think anyone would want that xd
you already have insurance paid for
it costs me about 20k to insure 800k loadout
or if you die to scavs
do you loose your melee?
and there will be moments where you die to scavs, unlucky moments or whatnot
and then you get back everything
cause i noticed some characters you can't loot that from
and experienced players most of the time don't even want the gear from lower lvl players
either out of pity or cba to waste time to loot small items
If you dont have money to insure, you dont have money for the gear you bring in the raid.
there a resource for a good new player loadout?
@tardy turret it really depends
because even for new players, the budget they have varies.
i'll probably just run in as a nude pmc trying to loot putting a few items into my puch before i die
some pre lvl 5 manage to get 2-3mill somehow, while others struggle to even have 100k
so it really depends what you wanna do
less than 500k :p
vepr KM / SKS are decent weapons
with PS bullets
and just put on whatever you get or find
honestly the thing that set me up on money when i first started was learning interchange and doing my scav runs on that. scav runs on customs are an easy way to die
and spam scav
till you have a decent bank
Go scav -> Learn interchange -> Have fun & get rich
avoid customs when it comes to money
yea i did notice that, on customs i onstly spawn with shit ammo and against high tear players
and do it for quests
you can do hatchet runs to the interchange tech shops and get graphics cards and tetriz really easy
please dont advocate hatchet runs
lol
litterly giving them the aids experience right off the bat
but i do need to get 5 scav kills on customs as pmc... rip
if you do hatch runs, you might aswell just do scav runs as a new player
this gives you experience in gunplay too
do some scavs til you have a couple guns and then head into customs
scav runs on customs? or interchange?
not customs
interchange always
go interchange
i've already only been running customs and fuck me i hte it, love the map but i hate it lmao
Interchange will give you a good experience too
it's prob the most scary map for beginners
it's awesome when you play it w/o knowing what to expect
it's dark, scary, feels like a maze
and tons of loot everywhere
i did it once i got spooked alot
i'll try it out offline first to get a feel π
any good auto weapons for beginners actually?
Weapons don't matter in general as caliber/ammo dictates the damage you're going to do
can't even get the vepr rip
7.62x39 is pretty solid
since you can get PS bullets which are cheap and pretty reliable.
5.45 has the downside that anything below BS (expensive) is not that great.
but for beginners, you could rock 5.45 BP/BT
who sells those?
@tardy turret if youre level 5, you can try flea marketing a PP-19 or MP5 (with the stock)
how do u tell if u got a drop from a twitch stream?
before you can purchase off players
i wish i was level 5... only level 2
o. well listen to Veyx and do your first quest or two with what ya got
Youll level fast if you do the quests.
@tardy turret you can buy an sks and ps ammo at prapor but its semi automatic
but thats probably your best bet for all around budget before lvl 5
Semi automatic has the plus side that you can be more greedy with ur ammo
because you'll need less ammo generally.
that is true, i'll try it out when i go into offline interchange π
ps ammo will one shot people in the face even through majority of face shields you will see people wear so you at least have a chance
Just experiment with guns, there's a lot of viable weapons
sell them
there's some barters and a few are required for quests (late)
i generally just sell them to therapist
but youll have a quest for them later.
Prices on tags are high right now so Id sell them all.
I see
My tags go for like 25000 almost so I wish I could kill myself lol
@frosty crown prapor will send u a message
How do you know how much you go for?
@grand elm If only the tags were still the lvl x 1000
can you get a scope for the sks?
is there a lfg for eft cause im new but i wanna play with somebody
@tardy turret PSO
@tardy turret Almost any scope
unless yoou get the axion, then almost any scope
Thatd be nice. Seems around x500 right now
i dont think he can because he isnt lvl 5 not sure though
if you want a decent combo for both long & close range you could do PSO + PK-06 on a ncstar mount
hes just buying from traders
@bold kernel a couple of LFG chats down below
@bold kernel #521628660298678283 #news-setup then #pvp-lfg
I have a stash total value of β½19 mil right now but only have β½4 mil in liquid roubles, when is it time to sell various weapons and such?
don't think i can put that scope on cause i can't find any mounts for it , oh well π
@tardy turret what kind of scope do you want?
a simple one for CQB or long range?
or long range + close range
anything that i can put on an sks so i don't have to use ironsights lol
i think u are stuck with iron sights till 5
nah don't bother with scopes and whatnot for now
π
modding guns / putting scopes on it is annoying if you don't have flea market access
i can see why lol but i really hate some of the eaerly guns iron sights
yeah sks is one of the most annoying iron sights in the game i think
so much of your vision is blocked
the ironsight fills you screen so much
if you take off the rear sights its not that bad
ive heard of that actually but never tried it
ohhh question can you get bigger magazines for the sks? so you don't reload bullet by bullet?
is there supposed to be a looking for group section?
rip everything needs fleamarket access xd
@smoky warren #521628660298678283 then #pvp-lfg
i've done the rules thing it isn't working.
How can you find out how much your dogtag goes for?
can you loose stuffrom your gamma container?
no
now i see what a hatchet run is lmao
but thats really awesome to know, portable mini inventory
always run with at least a pistol, then you can kill a scav and grab their gun if need be
i tried to melee a person once... it does nothing lmao
melee is hella weak
but, imma go try out interchange offline to get a feel for the map, thanks all of you for the info !
also managed to find a ak with red dot and silencer at the bottom of my inventory lmao
good luck, hmu if you want to run any scavs on it im happy to show you around some loot spots
nice
i'll keep that in mind, you US, EU or RUS?
OCE but i can play west coast US with low ping
@tardy turret im east coast us but you seem cool i can try to help you too, its my bedtime soon however
looking for someone to help me do beginner quests, im US
what if u have a quest that needs u to extract, but you get run through
does it still count?
yeah it counts
ok
ah cool i think i can get decent ping west cost usa, well id be suprised if i didn't tbh xd since i'm only east coast lmao
@long spear lol it is for me too, just plan on doing offline interchange and scav run of it before heading off
ya'll can add me if you want i have ethe same name on there as here i think.. unless i mispelled it...
how do you even add people as a friend on EfT?
open up messenger then click friends at top
ohhh i see π
you would have to just message me in discord as i dont always have tarkov open
if you ever wanna play
if i remember i'll send you one, else i'll be playing alone forever xd
can we fold bipods?
and if so whats the keybind to do it cause i cant find it in controls
sry thx
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh whats the best way to get level as pms? get kills?
questquestquest
Can someone help me sell my stash if i screen share?
rip. never gonna get 5 salewa and 5 scav kill sin customs
i suck π
you can get salewas off flea
I thought that two when i first started
@fallen crane for the quest you have to find them in raid now
does it say find in raid on the quest?
every time i get one as a scav, or anything remotly good i get one shot from nowhere by a scav or by some other player after spraying my entire magazin into the players head
is the small SICC case worth the money?
and no can be from anywhere
yeah you can just flea market it then
need to get to level 5 first :p thats why i want that xp lol
is the documents case too small for you @next vessel ?
or do you collect a lot of tags?
if you answered yes to any of these questions then yes
just focus on the scav kills first @tardy turret
alright i'll do that tmr then ^^
well try to
but gonna finally try interchange, thanks for all the help @fallen crane
no problem
Anybody got a good budget loadout?
@grizzled heart Mosin, 40 ammo, Ifak & Painkiller
@formal hill just watch pestily and link your twitch with eft thro the eft site
ok thanks
good budget sks ammo is ps
!ammo
will it do good damage
it can one shot a lot of faceshields
and penetrate some armors, but as i said its budget
theres only one that is better
but its over 5 times as much per bullet
just look at the chart
Dude I need money
damn it bois im slumping
been low on the bread
sold icase today for moenya nd ive lsot half of it
where you get it from
Do Scav runs
the chirstmas gift
Like I said Budget loadout Mosin, 40 ammo, Ifak & Painkiller
no amour
no armor
or scope
@main grail its an error when you leave
Scope depens on the map, but mostly not
no armor is suicide
what map do you reccomend?
I been roaming coustoms and interchange
what have you been selling and looting @grave helm
@grizzled heart Player Guns and equipment that I have killed
I killed one dude who looted Killa and made 700k just from his gun
Is vss a decent weapon in raids?
whats the point of this factory old door key, is there anything in that generator room?
@twilit pike it has a few loose item spawns
Does anyone here have open sherpa requests?
weird, no scavs are spawning on interchange offline
@tardy turret Did you set the setting correctly?
yep pve was enabled
might take a bit for them to spawn in
ive had the same thing happen to me
if any new players are looking to do some runs, I am down to help you out if you need π
What's the point of PvE mode, to explore maps?
Can I send my friend any items through mail?
and to practice fighting scavs without other players interfering @twilit pike
But you don't keep the loot right?
when you exit it its like you never played it
don't lose anything, don't gain anything
@glossy pumice no, but u can do trades over the flee market
@mint hawk Is it instantaneous?
@glossy pumice well once you put up the request it takes about a minute to show
be available* shows instantly..
or does he get the item immediately
And is there any downside to doing the trade?
they must just put a cheap item up asking to barter it for your item
fees
How much are the fees usually?
depends on the item
depend on item value being put up,, but very low
depends on the internal value of the item
So It's negligible?
depends
so things that are highly valued to players
but the game says are cheap

keytool?
i cant do the math
that's not worth
cheapest best fuel for hideout?
but at current value
not bad
don' bother
I know
I'm just wondering about the fee
im confident you can accurately assess the value of the two
ive just been buying it fram jaeger lol
i don't even power my hideout lol
who tryna raid?
legit do a scav run and go to OLI and get like 3 fuels
I need some nice guys
VO Γ Ti Γ 4log10(VO / VR) + VR Γ Q Γ Tr Γ 4log10(VR / VO)
VO is the total value of the offer, calculated by multiplying the base price of the item times the amount.
VR is the total value of the requirements, calculated by adding the product of each requirement base price by their amount.
Q is the "quantity" factor which is either 1 when "Require for all items in offer" is checked or the amount of items being offered otherwise.
Ti and Tr are tax constants currently set to 0.025.
supposedly thats the expression
test it if you like
i hit this scav 7 times with the hatchet and didnt die, is there something im doing wrong? or melee just sucks?
melee does kinda suck. you'd want to hit their head/face if youre gonna do that
you probably just hurt every limb
your strength is also probably low
yeah gotta hit the head for melee to have a chance to be effective
Gotta clonk their noggin
whats the command for the best m4 build
As a player scav, killing another player scav, will i aggro the ai scavs?
found a factory key today not even used should i just sell it?
if you arent gonna use it then yeha
wellll i got a 218 key on shoreline so i might have to toss her to the wolves
could use the money thats for damn sure
unless you run factory a lot i dont think it's useful
you right i appreciate ya
are scav spawns random?
like on places where scavs are spawning sometimes, can it also happen that they don't spawn? also amount random?
they always spawn in certain locations but when they spawn depends
is eft stats the website still good for seeing what servers do not have a lot of people on them it seems to be down and its been over a year since i last played
and can you still switch to low pop servers
Hey guys
what are GP coins used for? And how much can I sell them for on flea market?
like 26-27k @outer osprey
Thank you!
faster way to link π
as a general tip: you can right click an item and press "filter by item", it will then open the flea market with a search for that item
i discovered that also just recently lol
Your melee can't be looted right?
quick question - I got this odd ass cat thing, should I hold onto it or sell it?
looks like a tall brown cat statue thing
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Living_high_is_not_a_crime_-_Part_1
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page cat statue for a direct link.
thanks
@plucky goblet thank ya, kindly
do i get higher chance for drop if i watch many streams?
no
where can i find the event in the formus
do player scavs drop dog tags?
no
damn it, im having so much trouble finding Gas analyzers
interchange has em pretty common
yeah im doing interchange rn
just started, playing a bit tonight and more tomorrow if anyone is down
couldn't find it yet π©
@amber saffron dont stress it much
Try the OLI store and the power station
hit oli front, texho, techlight, and power
yeah
the white shelving
that looks like gas station shelves
about titty height
i've had the best luck with those
I'
've never seen one on the industrial shelving spawns
ty, ill try again
ah
It's random, I found the first one at lvl 3 or 4 at the power station
does number of graphic cards in bitcoin farm matter?
nice. thank you!
Spa Tour PT 1. How do you get headshots with a shotgun? So far I have only either got thorax or missed the head entirely!
Split the difference. π
But I am aiming directly at their faces with a 2x scope
The scope might not be zeroed at that distance, if it's not then the shot lands below where you aim
Try the shooting range or a wall to test where the shot actually lands at that distance
is the hideout important in the beginning?
I finally got it!
awesome!
Thanks a lot for the help @dull cave
np π
@past lodge Shotguns have really poor accuracy stats so your shells will deviate a lot if you're using slugs, could just have been unlucky
YO THIS GAME HARD
Yes
like my
@trim herald depends on barrel
the long barrel shotguns don't have bad slug accuracy
i'm glad that someone told me to use leg meta
went for factory scav run and killed few players who were scavs aswell but tried to kill me
yeah i know, but they had looted some helmets aswell from the room next to me where some PMC players died so i didn't risk it
they didnt yeah
but i'm noob so
Well, if it worked then it's fine!
It's definitely good to get into the habit of aiming for the head though
i know, i usually do
but someone told me with shotguns to always aim at legs.. but i guess they just meant the geared guys
Yeah although those flechette rounds rip up armour
why shotgun when you can use other gun 
I had a guy almost kill me once with them through a fort
@fickle kettle he was a pscav
@broken briar I don't think anyone does
true
collects all items in the game 100x
kill every content creator 10 times
get fence level 2
etc etc
lmao get fence lvl 2 got me
Kill a cop irl. 5,200 experience, 15k roubles, and an op-sks
i have him at lvl 3 
n e r d ^
I haven't even unlocked him. I've done basically no quests this wipe and I'm level 22 after 40 raids mainly from just playing factory
eliminate the eco of rasicm
Hey, do u guys recommend selling the barter items on flea market or just to the dealers
most of the time to flea
right click and filter by item, it would take you to the flea market listing for said item. Check market prices. sell to the highest - unless you wish to level a merchant
@spare mantle check flea if it's close then sell to traders
Aha okay thank you guys!
Regarding Signal Part 2, I found the required circuit boards from raid, but died before extracting, can I now just buy them to finish the quest?
which ammo for vepr ? FMJ ?
m80
Ah alright, thanks
glhf
The dorms v-ex extract on customs, does it open later in the raid? it is on ???? right now but it is not red, does that mean it'll open later? I have the cash i just need to extract from there
No car...no exit
? means possible but not guaranteed
If it doesn't work when you get the move to Guaranteed exfil
I see, thanks π
I don't bother with the ? exfil unless they are on the way to a Guaranteed Exfil
Shoreline and Reserve don't run well.
It's most likely the game not you.
hey anyone im new and need help with a shooter born in heaven
what about it?

Guys I have a quest item in my stash but when I go to the task page it doesn't show up, how do I give it to the trader?
it's the first doc's quest, to hand over sawega or whatever they're called
I go to the task page, it says to hand over 5 of them
The Salewa
First aid for Therapist
You have to go to the Trader page...then Task tab
are Hoses good? those corrugated ones cuz idk what to do with them(well, i mean i could use them in my hideout but is there better option)
@sick schooner nope, just hideout or sell on fleamarket
meh
do you have problems with offraid healing?
if so, an investment into your med center and such might be in your intrest
You need them to upgrade hideout
hideout is worth upgrading simply as a form of progression
and the benefits are worth it long term, not short term
fact: an item can be sold for about the same exact price it can be bought for
if you ever feel the need to ask, just sell it unless it's a quest item

okey
you got me so distracted I was looking at handguards for 2 minutes trying to find a foregrip
thanks nerd
I made it across Customs with my PMC hacking and coughing with a blacked out head.. I don't ever want to do that again.
woods are such dumb map 2 minutes to spawn always get headshoted by player from nowhere 100% of the time
nope
11 times i went for jaeger 11 times i got headshoted rigt of the start
i barely moved from start π
potentially the problem
what an advice
lma
oi
@stiff umbra gonna be honest, if you tried 11 times in a row and was headshot from the start, you probably did something wrong
Look at every death as a learning experience
obviously i spawned to woods that was it
ye i learned i thing i should go afk for at least half hour when i spawn to woods
nah
@dull cave are you trolling me or what is this
He's saying that if you are dying as soon as you spawn then you are probably making a tactical error
i dont know what to tell you because I wasn't there
all im saying is that you are doin something wrong
People do push to spawns. Move as soon as you spawn.
and I suggest you take a look to see what it is
well whats the tactics and telling me i didnt something wrong
im not sure
well then be quiet
budracin actualy helped
and i will point out everything you did wrong
becouse i didnt know people push spawns
which concludes that spawns are close together which i didnt know
Spawn pushing is worst probably on Factory...then I'd say Customs next
However people do push spawns on woods too
spawn pushing is terrible on all the maps
I can get free kills on customs, woods, and interchange almost every time
which highlights a big ol problem
dude i spawned again to woods and i literaly could see 2 people off the spawn tried to run away well worthless efford
why are spawns so close this is dumb
thats never gonna be fixed unless they lower player count on maps or let players spawn somewhere other than map boundary
both are shit ideas
first solution's problems are obvious
no i spawned immidietly SSD load times
second solution's problems are that it'll give players better spawns based entirely on RNG worse than it already does
i was literaly watching dude aiming at me from 4 seconds since game starts
did you deploy with the timer he is asking @stiff umbra
then im suspect that you saw two people immediately.
yes i did
there are no more spawns with LOS on each other
I'm 99% certain
except like
maybe 2-3 across the game
I have never ever seen that
and I only know of one on customs
maybe within 30 seconds
customs has 2 spawns that can see each other within 5s
but not right away
well then i am riddiculously unlucky
but its rare ppl spawn at both
becouse this was my 13 try in woods
i dont think you are unlucky
and i get people shooting at me literaly 10 seconds to game
I think there is something you are doing that isn't putting you in the best situation
where on the map are you spawning
Northeast side of reserve can see each other basically instantly
well i dont remember all 13 spawns and i literaly cant tell
Guys i'm here again with stupid questions. What should i do with GP coins? Just sell or do they have any meaning?
becouse i get killed befor i even check my surrounding
if you cant tell its cause you don't know the map
if you don't know the map that'll kill you dead anyway
its pretty much impossible to die in the first 2 minutes of a woods raid if you just dont move
In all my hours getting killed within 10 seconds of spawning has never happended
they are used in some trades, but usually better off sold @sick schooner
i spawned several times at west border
aight
@waxen forge my record is in 12s
west border has no close spawns
ty
closest is at the brick building at old station
1.5-2s
I don't know what is happening on your end but it doesn't sound typical. Maybe Factory dead in 20 seconds but not other maps.
Oof
well like i said i got sniped there so i dont expect someone to rush me
late spawn into raider factory
in prewipe
@stiff umbra just record your next gameplay
I'm pretty sure you're just dying in the first 3-5 minutes
i will be happy to help you
Shit just go live and we'll watch
and its cause you're probably running around at the start
i never survived in woods for more then 20 seconds
i just generaly avoid this map since it just trolls me always
Go Chit Chat 1 and Go Live
well livestream a game
@waxen forge reserve has some nasty spawns
I think reserve has 2 really shitty spawns under dome
at CP gate extract i think?
one dude spawns at the guard tower and one dude spawns at the hill right above him
so hill dude can walk 3 feet and shoot him
all in all
spawns are zucced
i can get free frags on customs just by running towards a spawn in the first 20 seconds
@desert hull Eastside behind black pawn, the one beneath the guard tower and the one by the small Brickhouse on the Northside can see each other 5 seoncd in when they just walk a tiny bit
task requires Module 3M armors
^
task description sucks and doesn't imply this well
skier says something about needing shitty white ones or something
ah
tubes expensive?
@modest dust generally 5.45
penis helmet 
2001
I just got some markers for a quest for prapor, if I lose them do I have to buy new ones myself?
yea @modest dust
thats midtier
bordering on high tier
60 is solid
ach
ulach
lzsh
well which
only one of the 3 supports a facemask
the other 2 are level 4
ulach covers ears, ach doesnt
Mabye it's a diff helmet I'm thinking od
if someone drops morphine injectors in a raid and I pick it up, is it still counted as found in raid?
^
today i was doing reserve run
i killed a guys
who wear LZsh + face shield
but he was using Val + Killa amour =))
so what happen was i headshot him with the MP9 
Alot of bullets will still go through face shield so your not invincible
But you'll be much safer then open helmet
Atyln is good for being a tank
no it just an explain of you should not use LZSH with high endgear
cause you can be headshot from a 9mm LOL
You got high end armor
Oof I didn't know it could
Why skimp on helmet
Helmets are expensive
I don't like the LZSH because it doesn't cover ears. I honestly go no hat -> Ulach with ears -> Airframe/New hat
i think Kiver would have save him if he did wear 1 LOL
and kiver is not expensive XD
But it fucks your hearing
And I'd rather have ears than a hat that generally won't save me anyways
Can probably count on one hand the times I've survived due to a helmet
that why Fast MT exist
I just wear the penis helmet with comtacs 90% of the time
Fast doesn't give me ear cover
Penis helmet is a good compromise if you want to wear a helmet, it's really good for what it is
doesnt it also fuck your ear
?
Nope
w8 what pen** helmet are we talking about
I love killing 3 full gears
yeah
what did you kill them with
Then getting killed by a hatchling with a pistol hiding in the bushes
nothin more satisfying than dropping a squad of fullgears without them even seeing you
I had mosin they def saw me
lol
I was just better
thats cool 2
nice
but more fun when they dont have a chance
customs is so fucking hard
im just not able to do The Extortionist
customs is free kills
Eh.
I keep running into geared people
Got full w keyed in dorms by someone w atlyn the next game after killing those 3 full gears
"nothin more satisfying than dropping a squad of fullgears without them even seeing you" + with an OP-sks 
and i died again
Mosin
Bruh, if he's got a pistol he's not a hatchling
nah mosin loud af
is it possible for someone to give me a hand? π©
so does OP-sks now 
Going from mosin to full gear is nice

I've been thinking about running sks more
op-sks

They're garbage, don't do it
dont use sks 
It's just straight up a shitty and more expensive VEPR
pretty sure you can still headshot ppl from 100m if you know how to use
You can do that with a 5-7, doesn't mean it's the best gun for it
Modder mpx is where its at
Modded
Everytime I kill someone with one and use it I destroy the server
Then I put it in my stash and let it sit.
Better start running scav. More in between runs
yeah
can someone tell me, if the player count per map includes player scavs or just pmc's ? π
what happens when my legs are blacked out and someone then shoots at my legs?
oh okay
the total cost of all items in stash is that flea market prices or trader prices and is that broke done weapons or the weapon in whole
stomach, arms, and legs have different damage multipliers
and if I lose an insured backpack in the raid and it comes back, do I get everything I looted that was inside it back aswell?
does anyone mind helping me with The Extortionist? im really struggling :(
@dull cave thx partner ππ
yup
@prime ermine sure!
Is it me or is the map Reserve a lot less populated than the other ones?
My queue's are significantly longer on that map, only played it a couple times though
It's harder but it has alot more loot not sure why people are sleeping on it
Because of the new Killa Q and if you're after loot there's easier accessible loot in other places
Oh and does anyone have a good reserve map? They all look like ass
anyone wanna do some runs at shoreline customs and maybe interchange? just looting for money atm/new players welcome/ this is my 4th wipe/dm me/18+ years or older
WHEN WILL christmas ornaments be sellable again?>
Hi i need assistance
What up?
you a pro lol
I mean I know the game pretty well, what's up?
you know the streamer guns with the side scope
i bought one and now i have zero other guns and i need help getting money for buying other guns and i need help learning how to use the streamer gun yea i am poor
i am level 5
and i just bought eod yesterday
Oh I gotcha. You can request a sherpa to give you a hand with the basics ingame, or go into LFG
i have ammo and stuff
But without armour you'll just die to scavs instantly bud

#sherpa-info for sherpa stuff
Alright lads, had the game for a couple days now and have been learning customs. Iβve been running an SKS with iron sights with PS ammo and Iβm ok vβs Scavs but any PMC I come across seems to full auto me down
That gun makes my feelings hurt
Should I start using a full auto gun? Iβm on around 1million roubles at the moment
sks can work fine for what it does... but yea PvP can be difficult at that caliber still
Hello, is there anyone willing to make a team to do some quests? I am kinda noobish and cant do it on my own.
@bold kernel any recommendations mate? Or should I stick to SKS with my budget?
@digital stag AK with good ammo will be an upgrade, you could try the VEPR hunter with M80 ammo, it'll pack WAY more of a punch
@trim herald I did try out a Vepr AK carbine in 7.62. I had a bit more joy with it but still itβs semi auto
You don't want to Full auto a 7.62
The Hunter uses a larger caliber though, can 1hit chest on anyone without top tier armour with M80
@digital stag sks is a fine opener for getting supplies and through scavs. Sneaking up on players sometimes. can be great on stash space too. But if you wanna compete against players you want to build up into hunter vepr maybe. Or work on farming scav bosses...
Otherwise the AK with good ammo is a solid choice, https://imgur.com/GntiGCX
Yo yo. Just installed the game, about to load into the map. Anything I should know right off the bat?
You're likely to die π
Reset expectations. Don't matter how well you do at other shooters. This is EFT...different animal
Use internet maps on 2nd screen.
Learn scav behavior, PMC behavior
Use GOOD ammo
@waxen forge thanks
I want to get eft and want to buy it with paysafecard.
Do I need a mypaysafecard-account for it or is the code of the paysafecard enough?
So I've put together a list of tips and useful information for people who are either starting out on EFT or are just looking to refine their skills.

@waxen forge Thanks much!
Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.
All the data displayed below is the produ...
Alot of that can be found pinned and doesn't need re-posting as well
Wish Iβd have found this discord earlier. Excellent info
Iβm gonna run a Vepr Hunter tonight. I wanna get used to the pmc v pmc fights
f
Hunter will get you into the bad behavior of one tapping fat bois
@strange portal if you have the right key with you there should be a UNLOCK prompt over the BREACH
Hey are there any games settings that have a standard among players? for example I saw the default fov set on 50, should I put this higher?
@rich cloak wouldnβt one tapping geared people be good behaviour? π
Best map for Beginners?
Aaah I get you
@valid thicket early quests are all on customs. Other than that interchange
If I go semi auto I want to run the same gun over and over to get some muscle memory behind it
@rich cloak ahh gotcha. good to know!
Because the hunter is basically cheesing the system
how about Factory?
@valid thicketfactory is not really a map you want to play since there's no loot
Factory is EFT COD. It's for tasks and just pvp
@digital stag 9mm got left behind in the armor/ammo changes which makes them basically useless against any armor
But they still are fun and can still kill
Just use ap6.3 when running 9mm
Iβm just abit afraid if I start running full kits my 1m roubles will go down the tubes in 2 or 3 runs. Iβm still at only 14 raids or so
And 5 extracts, playing extremely passively
You won't get better at it by not doing it
w8 i forgot who sell the AP 9mm 
peacekeep
Peacekeeper
@digital stag Try out the AK build I linked you, it's only about 60-65k
Ammo is more expensive as you'll want BT/BP at least, BS probably
60k with the gun
As the gun itself is 38k from Prapor
I guess you can get it cheaper off the Flea
Then if you expect the gun to be 60k and you get it cheaper, so much the better no?
Veprkm for example I find on market for 9-14k while it avgs 15k
And then 32k from trader
Vepr's are WAY more common than AK74N's though
Ak 74 and ak74n are just as common
And about the same price
Iirc an ak74, tt01 ironsight, zhukov stock, pws, and sight of choice was like 60k for a really cheap full auto build lol
You can happily full auto that linked one
I mean sure, but isn't pws meta?
It's a meta muzzle, the build isnt. I'm just advertising something you would. Go put one together and compare your build
Go hug the wall
Behind the blocks
