ohh
You just use it to learn
Is it just me or is tarkov being hella slow
It is
Trying to sort my inventory, everything just blinks at me
36 billion people are trying to play Customs all at once

Is it insured
nah
That's your mistake then
Yeah
i found it mid run
@hearty sky yeah
ofcourse @hearty sky
F
That's the whole point of repairing love
wont dont a lot of streamers have kappa containers
It will take away durability
awesome. Tnx.
Though when N approaches lower numbers(Say, 5-10), it becomes impractical
You probably shouldn't be repairing things that low anyway
Tactec and 6b killa armor repairn the best
Anything under 25 is practically unusable
And white armour! Repairs amazingly π

I mean it's pointless to wear it as it won't stop anything, but it repairs really well!

wtf do i do with a skull & teapot
@proper ginkgo Because it's locked behind a lot of annoying quests
I'd just sell them
!wiki teapot
Buy them back when you need em
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Antique_teapot
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page teapot for a direct link or !wiki search teapot for a list of all hits.
Teapot is found in raid
!wiki skull
Very rare
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Gold_skull_ring
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page skull for a direct link or !wiki search skull for a list of all hits.
Aha okay makes sense
The skull you can sell
Read away:D
Eh, not that rare. Fairly common in safes
Anyone know the keybind to rotate objects in the inventory?
it now from very rare to somehow rare
Can someone tell me what the default settings for sens are i dont want to revert and risk losing my settings
thx π
Anytime
yeah people are definitely using some sniping shit
@trim herald It's my only objective rn >:D
π©πͺ
Good for you dude
I'm half working towards it, just cba doing the shotgun Q's atm π
I cba with half of the quests cause I did them 8x over
what
Items case/Thicc items case
!wiki containers
what's the state of servers in australia? thinking of getting this game but oceania has it rough with some games
amazing questions
Oh, there's a wiki for containers π
@signal whale Currently all servers are struggling, normally the Aussie servers are fine though AFAIK
Get rekt
???
thanks @trim herald , is the population high enough to have a good experience?
One of the most popular streamers in this game plays from Aus.
Lmao
I don't play Aussie servers but based on what I've seen from Pestily's streams there's enough players to be fun
ah cool
Hes on american servers too
His raid series on youtube is excellent as well
Ever wanted to see a full playthrough of EFT in your own time? This is the series for you! Each episode discussing each individual detail as I play through the game. From keys to important locations it's all going to be here!
-------------------------------------------------...
@steady pilot another EXFIL question: tne

the dropdown says "Old Road Gate"
Go to dorms
is that the one behind the Old Gas Station?
Red gate on the wall
ahhh ok
No thatβs old gas
Scav yes thanks
How valuable is a Labs Keycard?
@bold kernel200k
no only if you hit them with your shot
can you lock doors after you unlocked them?
No.
you crawl your way to the extract 
wouldn't mind getting out of this map with this keycard π
I wish you could lock doors
Keycard going between 110 and 180K
It'll sell at 180. I'm hoping it goes back to 200.
Prices fluctuate
It came down cause of twitch.
It's a busy time atm so I guess market is saturated
During the dead hours I can sell cards for 200k
i have just a pistol and no armour - is it worth just hiding out for 20 mins and then moving to the exit?
y'know, lie in a bush and make some tea
You're going to die eventually
Everyone does
It's better to die and learn from your mistake
He's got that keycard though, lol.
True
He wants to extract.
yeah i know just wondering decent strategy for getting out when you have nothing
But like, it's an experience thing
no gear just a pistol and a keycard lol
Every man dies. Not every man really lives. - William Wallace (maybe)
Lmfao
Honestly, most PMCs would be close to extracting after 25 minutes in Customs.
@waxen forge that's JRR Tolkien
I see them all the time under 10 mins
Just play careful. Technically your rate for survival goes up the longer in the raid as there are less variables over time
You know how to get to your extractions right?
yeah i am thinking wait until 15 mins left then start to make my way over if I hear no gunfire nearby
He knows now
i see there are snipers on the towers
You're a scav, the snipers wont shoot you.

oof
Been there..done that
You learn once
- delta 2k19
Yeah, players cant get up there.
is there a weight limit or other factors to jump over the blue portable toilets from the car?
is it possible to clean a visor?
no cleaning
Not yet, but I hear they're adding it soon.
gotcha
quite annoying
@steady pilot is there a weight limit or other factors to jump over the blue portable toilets from the car?
How are the new Exfil helmets?
i just bought eft how do i download and start playing?
There's a big INSTALL button on the webpage.
@pearl dagger #community-support
But yeah it's on profile pahe
Page
Where you bought the game
Weight CAN affect that jump but I dont think it will.
@bold kernel not really
Youd have to be a super thicc boi.
You just need to open door, aim at the train car, and jump for the corner
yeah there is no install button do u usually have to wait after a payment bc i already got the verification email
@royal wind Technically they're slightly worse than the airframes probably, but they look super cool π
Oh, should be same as airframes I'd imagine, not tried one yet
I Always connect late and when i get into the game and i see someone they freeze and i cant hit or kill them. 30 sec later i take damage out if nowhere and die. Is this a recurring bug or something.
PS: it always happens on Customs as a PMC, it already happened like 4 times
Sounds like bad desync.
How can i fix it?
Not sure, do you have packet loss on your connection?
Or do i just report it as a bug
Sounds like it's on your end, connectionwise
That too
They are upgrading infrastructure
Cause twitch literally blew publicity of this game out of the water
It went from niche to big hype
Okay thanks guys
Yeah eft is poppin off really hard, even ppl who shit on the game are now playing it 
it takes 5 mins to get to main menu 
cant even start the game anymore π€£
It took 6 hours past the time to upload patch. I woke up when patched released. It took 8hrs to finnaly download. Took 2 hrs to load menus and traders. Then took another hour to find 1 raid and then went to bed
Wipe day was fun. Fire up EFT...walk away watch the entire LOTR trilogy, then all the Star Wars movies...go to work a few days, come home wash the car, get a haircut, cook, a turkey, then sit down to play EFT.
That was my day on wipe day
wtf Im lucky that I didnt have that kind of problems when it came to the patch
Everyone was spamming the download
Instantly cranking servers to 300 degrees Celsius
it took me like 6h to download the game tho since my download speed jumped from 30kb to 14mb and back like a rollercoaster
I was getting I think, 10 KB/s?
Glad eft is getting cucked because so many new players come in. They will upgrade their server big time
felt like this game was gonna fail during kickstarter days
I saw the trailer for eft but never knew what the fuck I watched till I saw shroud being addictive to eft
I first heard about it back pre-alpha and thought it sounded fucking amazing
I watched some 2016 era customs gameplay video and bought the game and waited until the closed beta started
Or pocket the change like No Man's sky
I remember watching DevilDog play it way back when and thought it looked amazing
Im a bit sad because I cant play any other fps anymore, csgo/r6/cod/pubg everything feels so shit

Then didn't see anything until I saw a random streamer I followed due to R6 play in like .4 or someshit, immediately bought the game
@waxen forge look at you, finnaly got it. 
it looked good and all but i didnt h ave a beast setup backthen
and i saw gameplay of low fps
I'm green
Like the hulk
I want colors too π¦
You've been pretty helpful so it's been about damn time
im blue da ba dee da ba die
I try
Tried to save a weapon preset just to get hit by the spinning wheel of death
sup guys
Like presets even work
^
^
I haven't had any issues with using presets?
I tried to use preset and everytime I tried to buy the mods it got an error
It's been super smooth for me
I have a couple saved. Not perfect but a step in the right direction
^
same, presets save me a nice bit of time
I have a few ak74m that Iβve built and like
The only thing really that I'd like is if they'd just list all the ones you've made rather than having to either search or go through each rifle in a drop menu
But it's still really buggy
It gives me trader prices, which is generally the cheapest
Items I know will be cheaper from players I'll buy separately
Like optics usually
Thank you sir
@steady pilot "Authorization Error Occurred" any idea what that is?
A tarkov bug
Every see a volcano erupt?
Lmao
Means you need to restart the game
so guys
happened right after my exfil
That's the servers now
if i shoot people will it kill them?

so do i lose everything i got?
wot
If u hit them
@bold kernel PMC or Scav?
Scav
Then probably
Guns help
your mom kills people
yo how do you get the axe
Like the EOD axe
Besides being EOD get one on flea
Anyone can hatchet run
ok

just bought the game on the website and was wondering where I go to install the game now
your profile
Your profile page
on the site
went on profile page and the game is under the transaction section
do I have to wait
will it move to the preorder section when its ready to install
Nightforce
Highest zoom I've seen use for is the 1/6x honestly. Anything beyond that just feels like overkill
Vudu best
whats the zoom for the nite force
also how do i tell its zoom?
i think i bought a night force for my svd tried it in pve reserve
where do you get thermals from
how long does it take for the game transaction to go through
even at the longest range everything was way too zommed in
Nightforce is like 16
ok
can you exchange dollars for RUB?
a buddy of mine had to wait quite a bit to have his payment go through @fickle kettle
youre talking about like purchasing the game right
3-9x42 what dose the numbers mean?
ayeee just got a free keytool even though theyre tanking lmfaooo
ya i bought it and its just sitting in the transaction section
@bold kernel Indirectly, if you buy optics for dollars off the trader and sell for roubles on flea
so the payment hasnt gone through?
what do the numbers mean on a scope?
got an email from the external people they use for debit cards saying my purchase went through there
but nothing from the actual game yet
What scope you looking at
i suppose you can just leave the page then if youve gotten the game check https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/profile
First numbers are the zoom, numbers after the x are degrees of angle iirc
And yeah
Check for the email but also check on the escapefromtarkov.com website ...login and go to profile
Like vudu 1-6xsomething

1 and 6 mag and doa
this is what youll hopefully see on your profile page
@fickle kettle Also go to #news-setup and #521628660298678283 to get PMC role
i clicked the link you sent and it was there

it wasnt showing up on my page for some reason
love when i get randomly disconnected with a labs card in inventory
thanks @trim herald
I have 0.25 reputation with every trader now? Is that bugged?
I havent even interacted with all the traders
what's the deal with "Offer Not Found" on the Flea market?
@fickle kettle is everything good now?
Is there a way to fix shattered visors?
I think i hit install and it just finished installing a bsg launcher
They have to reach a certain amount of damage threshold to be repairable
is it pretty self explaintory from this point
@steady pilot No, I have standard
@steady pilot Ah ok thank u π
@WrickedyWrock#5380 relax it takes a bit
okay thx
It'll happen
The servers are super stressed
yeah okay thought so
why do some ppl have crowns next to their names
Eod
Eod owners
oh lol
The fancy game package
Bet
@void grove wanna play together? i got eod a few weeks ago
its safe to have a red rebel as a melee weapon, they cant be looted right?
Melee cannot be looted
how long does it take to get stuff back from insurance?
Has anyone upgraded to EOD and not seen any increase in their RUB available?
24H?
24-36 hrs
it says you get 400k RUB when you purchase EOD
they should add the differeence if you upgrade
so, anyone in here willing to show me the ropes? someone with experience and would like to help me? thank you!
with standard you got 300k
You get the difference of (Eod contents - standard)
yeah so why don't they add 100k to the cash in the stash?
And next wipe you start with the said EoD content

@bold kernel everything should have come in the mail
any sherpa's available
i got the extra gear & weapons, meds, etc but no add'l currency other than the USD
anyone waiting?
Idk man it must of bugged
Did you already have the 400K
The difference between eod start is 400k and the usd. And stand is just 300k
why does reserve have such a long q
anyone got a good spreadsheet with mods per weapon etc?
@high pawncause all servers are taking a dump #eft-announcements
Yes
yooo wtf
Yea
I've been through 8 of them
Wipes are good
everything resets?
Yes
ok
Wipes are very good
rip
so @steady pilot when it wipes again I will end up with the EOD starting stuff?
i just got 600k today aswell π¦
@mossy jungle There's so many mods it'd be impossible to have a spreadsheet for it. Upgrade the hideout and you can check them out ingame
Fresh wipe is the best 3 weeks of gameplay
how come
Time between last wipe and this wipe was 9 months. People got bored. Stopped playing
Because not everyone has max kit
i did a support request last wk about the lack of top-up on the RUB
People had too much $ and too much gear
they did not "accept" it yet
Yes
like new maps out etc
looking for a sherpa
Yes with big patch
They have to for balancing and bug reasons

glad someone beat dayz
Plus it's good for the community
^
is there anyway to bump up my game contrast and make colours more vibrant like people do with nvidea ? i have radeon
i want fortnitegraphics
Do players ALWAYS have dog tags on them?
@Ben#4761 only pmc
Unless they've been looted, yes Ben
no lol
like if you kill a player and they have no dog tag, they're 100% player scav?
No
sometimes they put their dogtag in their gamma
A player scav has no Tag but has an Empty pouch slot
r/woosh
Player scavs have a a container slot
An ai scav has no pouch slot
ok fair
Pmcs have dog tags
I dont understand how im not killing some people.. just had a scav run in factory where i got one with a mosin headshot. I looted an sks off him and heard someone running towards me. I spammed the whole clip into the scavs chest and then he shot me with a shotgun
War trophies
lol
Get a dog tag case
oh ok
yo how do you know if you got a twitch drop
No way i missed shots when he was 3m in front of me and i was prone
I have two almost full. Otherwise they trade for shit and sell for most at therapist @full harbor

Expensive thing needed for tasks...and hideout upgrades

Atleast you guys can learn and get mad together
Mad in EFT? Never

should i use epsilon or gamma
Oh sorry @torpid zinc , I meant to tag Jeere -.-
Gamma bigger
wait do ai scav kos exile?
@trim herald oh you got fucked up
Do you want 8 or 9 squares
any sherpas available
What's the question @true sun
@steady pilot @waxen forge Walked with 2 broken legs fully fully juiced earlier across entire map, realised i messed up extract locations, went all the way and got out with key card and full invent
just need someone whos experienced and wants to work with a newb and teach the ropes to me
Epsilon used to be a viable option when you could put guns in the secure container, now I think gamma is just better
I probably would, don't know if any traders buy it though
11 streams up. gimme my free fucking loot
jaeger
I can hook up with you tomorrow @true sun . With servers flaking at the moment I'm more chatting than playing.
I'm NA east coast
okay can we mic talk while i play?
Be around most of the day
so am i mate!
yea sure.
please help lol
You can even "go live" if you want
Be my sherpa too bud
U know more than me
idk how haha
YOu are pink
I've got a question about purchasing the game
Pink = toxic
im new to computer gaming and discord etc\
Well you are jumping into the deep end with EFT then
Also I mean I can help you help him
You an jump into Chit Chat 3 on the left side @true sun
is there a way I can change the install drive of the launcher because I installed it then deleted because I wanted to change the drive it was in but every time I reinstall the driver it automatically puts it in the drive I don't want?
this is like i'm hosting my own birthday party and invited weirdos that just talk shit
will do
If I buy the game in the US right now, will I be able to play it when I return to Asia
@waxen forge if you ever want some back up on your sherpa trips feel free to ping me. I get bored.
is there any spot on custom thats good for killing many scavs?
anyone running any?
curious, this may sound stupid but what exactly is a sherpa?
basically a teacher
is anyone doing sherpa things now tho?
After you white names accept #521628660298678283
so there is no spot on custom that spawns more scavs than another hm
@sand torrent @heady horizon go accept #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to unlock discord
is there a way I can change the install drive of the launcher because I installed it then deleted because I wanted to change the drive it was in but every time I reinstall the driver it automatically puts it in the drive I don't want?

it just says that they provide help for ingame things. that is a very broad statement. I shoulda asked for more specifics sorry
Was just doing a quest, thats a 500k key in my alpha lmfao
ive accepted both and im still white
takes time
Message modmail
dropped most of my insured gear too lmfao
Nice man. But keep that stuff to begginer chat or #screenshots
what grip should i put on my mpx?
oops mb
Np
@viral ibex depends if ur looking for ergo or max recoil
fortis shift for ergo and recoil
rk2 for max recoil
Is AKM considered throwaway for new players? (I can't gauge value yet as I am still level 3 and do not have flea market)
Rvg grip is best ratio of cost/ergo/recoil
Akm veprkm and sks ak74u ak74
All guns that are generally overlooked
Cause they cheap (and mostly trash)
That too
Veprkm is better 
For a semi 7x39 platform
Mosin gets dropped a lot tbh
You should rename yourself to Daddy Veprkm, the amount i heard you give it love today π
Why the fuck is the USEC stash key 450k btw?
.366 ammo is such a meme
Yep
Is the SNB ammo any good for mosin ?
@warm rover no you want 1 tap thorax potential
So 7n1 best
Snb is under 80 dmg
Can you gurantee two well placed shots to chest before you die?
For snb?
I have a couple hundred hours in raid, wanting to help a new player get into the game, will offer assistance to any newer players
is it really normal to die in 1 shot from a scav? insta headshot from a mile away so bullshit
directional audio doesnt help either
Lps is equivalent to m80 in pen now, so yes it works, but 7n1 is still considered the optimal round for strong chance against players who are geared.
He was asking about snb cause it was a high pen
So I gave the next best thing for penetration and dmg necessary
I wouldn't bother with LSB if I could get hold of 7n1 honestly
Meh. For the price, Iβm sticking with LPS. I hit my shots so Iβm not worried about having to do a follow up. I understand your reasoning, though, completely. 7n1 is great. Any ammo that starts with 7n is good.
But expensive.
7n1 only got expensive because m80 nerf and svd hype
Paying that extra 200 roubles was fine but its definitely expensive more so now
Were talking a bolt action to. You shoot like 5-20 rounds at any given time, not magdumping like mp7
THATS expensive
Haha fair enough.
So I mean spending 5k more to help gurantee easier kills is worf
looking for a sherpa
I mean basically SNB has more pen than lps an 75 damage @steady pilot
Generally yes.
1% of players use lvl 6, like 14% use lvl 5. The rest is 4 and lower
so better 7n1 best
What does the Russian words mean? Im gonna do offline Lab runs to get to know the map
You are generally better off
With 7n1
Snb works , I'd rather use in a semi auto tbh
Like svd
click the dropdown and click as online
Click the arrow down and choose the difficulty Adams, I don't know what the Russian means though
But even then svd 7n1 claps
How do you squad up?
Yeah I selected it as in online but still weird that random russian words come up
You add someone and right click their name and hit invite
Or you can try looking for group option and searching name
pretty sure its just as online in russian
a few quick questions
do i need to set server to Australia ? if so how ?
i dont have the offline option is it now gone ?
how do i put put medic stuff up where the rifles are and how do i medic my self ?
TIA
if i have a few valuable items should i wait till i hit 5 to sell em on market or just vendor em. i got a money box and gold rooster
haha i love beingextract camped
@cosmic fog look up a pestily and deadly slob beginner guide on YouTube
can i name and shame?
No
someone camping extract tunnel for 30 minutes
should be an option in the launcher to use servers with best connection @cosmic fog
xtract camping little cunt
Yeah extract campers must be desperate.
next time just check for a camper lol
i cant
^
Any new players need a hand?
it's not a safezone when you run to it
it was night time , he was camping it on a hill in bushes
I always pack a flash for that
@silver dome you don't have an flir?
is the M1A rifle worth keeping or should i sell it?
i dont wont to be running a flir while looting ressort and finishing a quest
@slate anchor keep. It doesn't sell for much.

i meant the version of the game
@slate anchor I mean it's a good gun. Just doesn't sell for much. I'd keep.
the next version is like $22 right now
@silver dome Do not call out other players in chat.
@slate anchor If you're broke sell it, it is however one of my favourite guns in the game but the ammo is fairly pricy
that's if you have the standard edition
Someone literally told you you can't after you asked
Volkov just run an flir or nvg if it's a night raid
oh pricy ammo... i literally wasted like 200k+ on 9x39 mm bp, backbreaking tbh
does ammo even matter
Yes
Kinda your fault for dying there. The guy was up on a hill, you didn't see him, he killed you. It sucked, but you need to pack the right loadout for your raid.
cant u just headshot 1 shot
depends on the helmet
Ammo is more important than the gun often
is scav junkbox worth?
and type of ammo
i thought helmet doesnt matter that much
I found a white ball. Is it useful? I cant sell it
If you have a standard edition definitely @drifting shoal
aight
You can craft things in the hideout with the white/red/violet christmas ornaments if you have the tree crafted
anyone wanna play? I'm tired of getting cucked by squads
@full harbor It matters a lot. Most players will be running class 4 if they have a brain, so you want to pack ammo that clears level 4 armor at least
makes me a n g e r y
@trim herald i dont have the tree
you should check out the ammo chart @full harbor
@full harbor If they dont have a visor and you hit the face yes. Otherwise ammo really matter
If you pack the wrong armor, prepare to dump 18 rounds into a guys chest
Hello, is there a place where I can look for a group? The in game function seems to be taking forever...
How good are visors? Like how many shots can they block?
Depends on the visor and the ammo
If it's shitty ammo even a lvl 3 can stop like 10+ rounds
@drifting tangle go to #521628660298678283
Yeah. I think I have a good one, it took like 5 face shots for me from a sa58.
jeez
That's why you use M62 rather than M80 π
What helmet is it on?
One second
is there any recommended easy way to make monies? i been doing scav runs but meh not a lot of money (roughly less than 30k each run)
Kiver-M
M62 is better than m80?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bur6SMLgsVg @slate anchor
3 Maps 3 different attempts to loot some money! A loot run can be anything from running to high tier spots with no real attempt to survive or like in this case, taking it a bit slower but with full intent to make the moneys!
--------------------------------------------------...
@tribal cove Thanks!
@bold kernel He was just absolute garbage ammo then π
thanks
@tribal cove You lose onetap to chest potential but you gain a LOT of pen. I think it's worth for an SA for sure
Will get m62 from now on then
@slate anchor Usually you want to be looking into what spawns where on a map. Also not sure how you don't clear 30k off what you spawn with as a scav
Usually that clears me 50k at least
just got blasted instantly by a teammate from joining via in game matchmaking...is that the norm for the player base??/
@bold kernel if someone invites you with ingame lfg, 99% chance they are trying to tk you
Douchey but it happens
i play on cusotms 24/7 because i'm new but also since i know the map inside out and it's the only map that i've mastered atm so i'm kinda tight on map variety which is why i find it hard to find good loot, especially on customs @bold kernel
Customs has only one high value loot spot which is dorms
BUT
Hidden caches are AMAZING
im new to both EFT and discord but want to squad up and use voip as well
You know about them? @slate anchor ?
how do i search for others looking to play rn?
im only lvl 4
Anyone know what cheap guns I should be running? I've been running mosin, but after spending 200k rubles on trying to get a sniper mosin set up I just need some good alt
VEPR 136 is great for a budget gun
@slate anchor look up the hidden caches, and search the warehouses.
about who? @trim herald
Hidden caches
nope
Great, great loot with little risk.
Dorms has the loot but everyone goes there and you will get killed by a streamer
oh thanks
20k? Wow
i usually go to dorms but my luck isn't always on my side so i either get killed on my way there or find no one @bold kernel
is everyone else having issues
They can spawn almost any loot in the game and if you hit 5-6 of them you're almost guaranteed to come out with 100k+
Yeah, don't go dorms
like trying to get into games
Fucking deathtrap
Dorms is only if you want to PvP honestly π
Only go there if you are fully kitted
i always go there as a scav to scavenge whatever is there
or as a pmc but pretty late in the round
Honestly as a scav too, I'd just hit caches π They're excellent
what should I buy from lvl 1 prapor to get ll2, ive only spent 400k with him
Yeah don't. Just skim the warehouses and hidden caches. There is usually plenty of weapon cases etc.
is the money case worth keeping?
Especially as you're starting out as they often have a bunch of items you need for the hideout
If you have lots of stacks of roubles yes @worn blade
Otherwise sell it and get a couple of wallets
i went to dorms with ak47u and came out with two really nice modded rifles
Yeah I have an mcase and a medcase
damn nice iain
Is medcase worth?
Id say so lavon
yeah i got kinda lucky he pushed me and i headshot hhim
you should use AS VAL instead, my BP ammo melts down any geared boi @hallow thicket
Medcase is handly as you'll have plenty of meds kicking around
its not very expensive either
Alright. It would get me 500k ruble so I was considering selling. Thanks.
I kept mine
Medcase selling for a lot despite everyone getting one for new years
true
Svd is selling for around 20k which really surprises me
its because people always need medcases to hoard their meds
Because most people have at least 2 of them once you get a decent stash going
Items don't usually drop below vendor sell price
Huh? SVDS is 55k min?
Alright. I think I'm set. I know how to exfil on most maps and I have a guy I play with who synergizes well with me.
@trim herald saw one on flea for 20k
A barter?
Nope
Or a roubles sell?
Roubles
Someone fucked up I guess
Yeah maybe
can you get key tool from a quest? I thought I got it from a drop but it's not in my inventory and that was hours ago
No
Key tool?
What does upgrading security in hideout do?
That's the thing that holds all your keys right?
keyring to put keys on
Yeah
takes only one slot so you can put like 16 keys in your secure container in one slot
@bold kernel Gives you access to upgrading other stuff only really
lavon if you dont have the money for it there is also a docs case which does the same and for other items but its 1x2 instead of 1x1
for cheaper
hit up the marked rooms and you can find them
I'm not in the market for those rn.
I'm still fairly newish. I'm getting better though
I've done 3 raids with the same gear and gotten 100-150k from each
okay.... im in a fight... handgun has no bullets... so instinctivly... i click r to reload.... oh guess what the game says fuck you and for some reason my characte doesnt wanna reload
ammo in rig or pockets
Do you have a spare mag in pockets or rig?
Did you have a mag available?
probably in bag
You need a spare magazine for that weapon in your pocket/rig.
Then that's why π
Won't look in bag
Your PMC aim't gonna unzip their backpack and root around for a mag when you hit R
Just like "Hold up fam, need to go through my bag one second"
I'm wondering if I should get better at solo runs. I found a guy who I play with who synergizes well with me. I would say he carries me but I saved him from an ambush a few times so I think we're about even
your pmc is lazy is basically what hes saying
See even he needs his ammo in pockets
@steady pilot how come youre aloud to gif and i can only post linsk XD
so whats better rig or pockets?
Neither is better
@bold kernel Up to you but if you're having fun with duo's there's no NEED to play solos
Rig expands pocket slots
you have to use rig when using rifle because mags are big
I removed my offers from the glee market
True. I have the most fun playing duo but not sure if I'm handicapping myself in any way.
You always have 4 pocket slots, use a rig for . more
If you died? Only if you insured them and nobody took em
Nooo
they should be in ur messenger
I was selling them on the free market
O
He removed item from flea market
I donβt see them
Lol
Wait that removes the item?
Check ur mail
It's flea market
Yea ik
i just answered ur question lol
No should get mailed to you
In messenger?
Yeah
Did not appear
Ok
Restart actually
its from ragman
Imma sell my keys
It takes a while for them to come back after you withdraw an offer
I sold some shit on flea, had to restart for the money to show up in messenger
Barter is fucking stupid. It always tricks me into selling my loot for less lol
Just ignore barter
Assume there's no way to tell how much damage you do to someone who killed you? I did 4 shots to the chest drawing blood with some AK variant which apparently didn't kill him.
You can go to the cog wheel and check mark ignore barter trades
Only time barter worked was when I sold 2/70 off my sugar for a fully modded ak
@inner glacierthe after action report?
Wait actually 
Sugar is also 45k on market
Or whatever
So actually you got ripped off
Cause I guarantee that ak wasnt "fully modded"
Ben what ammo did you use?
I had a sugar with 35/70 on it, sold it to the guy. The ak had a pad, foregrip, mag, and scope.
The damage is across all your targets
Click cogwheel, then tick those two filters
Thanks
@bold kernel Sugar is worth more
What does the lavatory do
The amount of sugar doesnr matter
Damn
Yeah.
@bold kernel Dude, were you raised by bears? You shit in the lavatory
I'm not too sure @fluid path. It was a Scav run. It was one of the ones that only fit in a 10 round mag. Believe the mag hold was called 544 something that began with S
π¦

Also lets you craft a bunch of stuff you need for the hideout and quests
but it was an AK varient I spawned with as a scav
