#

Damn you, traders!

steady pilot

icy summit
#

#

skier sold out.

steady pilot
#

Thanks to meta

lilac belfry
#

all it takes is two assholes

steady pilot
#

And new players

lilac belfry
#

to change dynamic prices

#

Obligatory thanks Nikita

steady pilot
#

And people who think recoil is everything

#

This is is the result

icy summit
#

well, on a muzzle break

#

it kind of is.

lilac belfry
#

I mean, low recoil + recoil control skill 30+

#

= RIP the guy you shoosting

steady pilot
#

Spraying is a crutch

lilac belfry
#

I mean

#

if you are alive and the other guy is dead

#

it worked

steady pilot
lilac belfry
#

Welcome to Tarkov (tm)

steady pilot
#

Regardless

#

You dont need it

lilac belfry
#

Some guns need it

#

some players need it

#

that's why we are here helping beginners

candid cypress
#

I just downloaded the game, do I just go right in and die?

fickle kettle
#

we need pws cqb for sniper worry

#

@candid cypress yes

steady pilot
candid cypress
#

my body is ready

steady pilot
#

Me too

icy summit
#

ngl, 54 Recoill on a fucking LMG

#

is nice.

steady pilot
#

Hope you watched beginner guides

candid cypress
#

Whats some decent beginner guns I should sim for

#

nope

#

wher are they?

steady pilot
#

The rpk is kind of a meme in stats btw

icy summit
#

youtube.

#

Erg SUCKS

sick reef
#

use toz

#

best

candid cypress
#

I was kinda thinking of going in blind and get rekted as I learn

icy summit
#

That will be quite alot of rekking

steady pilot
#

@candid cypress I mean. Sure. Atleast use the wiki๐Ÿคท

icy summit
#

what's the best ergo grip?

steady pilot
#

The um

#

Mechanic one

#

XD

#

!wiki grips

broken quailBOT
icy summit
#

yeah, pretty sure that will... not help

#

unless i somehow menage to get TT grips on RPK.

steady pilot
#

!wiki fortis

broken quailBOT
icy summit
#

48 Ergo and 57 Recoil While using the 95rounder...

steady pilot
#

!wiki cobra foregrip

broken quailBOT
steady pilot
#

Found it

icy summit
#

Cobra has the same ergo, yeah

steady pilot
#

Oh they reduced it

icy summit
#

worse Recoill controll, sadly.

steady pilot
pliant moon
#

I found a plate carrier (Wartech TV-110). It has 79.7 armor points. Looking to sell on flea market, going rate seems 75kish but all of them have 0 armor points left (or low 20s/30s). Should I be selling it for more?

steady pilot
#

Rvg is most balanced grip in game

#

For price ergo and tecoil

#

Recoil

stable nova
#

when you say pso, do you mean the pso 1 or the 1m2?

steady pilot
#

Find other ones near your durability

#

Pso1

#

Is the best looking

#

And prapor lvl 1 sells it

#

They are all functionally the same
There are 3. One of them is for vss. It only has 1 chevron and big rangefinder

fickle kettle
#

pso wut

icy summit
#

PSO BEST SIGHT.

steady pilot
#

^

fickle kettle
#

it kinda

icy summit
#

PSO PSO PSO

steady pilot
#

1p59 is also op

#

Till they nerfed

stable nova
#

what mount do i need?

steady pilot
#

Ergo

fickle kettle
#

cause it remind my sks build

steady pilot
#

No mount needed

icy summit
#

it dosen't have a precise rangefinder bulid in

steady pilot
#

The gun just needs a dovetail on side

icy summit
#

PSO-1 HAS

#

YIS

#

AND IT EVEN WORKS

steady pilot
#

I know

#

But 3x

#

And 10x

stable nova
#

you mean on front side?

steady pilot
#

Look at an ak103

#

Look at this gun

#

Do you see the rail above the trigger

#

That's a dovetail mount

stable nova
#

so i cant use a bastion cover

steady pilot
#

You cant use it on a veprkm or bastion cover no

#

Its dovetail mounted

#

You can on ak103

#

And ak74m

#

Or akmn

#

74n

#

N = nightscope in russian = dovetail there

#

Ak100 rifles are modernized AKs and all have dovetail

#

74M = ak100

pliant moon
#

would it be wise to frontload Vepr mags with BP rounds, like 10, then 20 HP rounds? BP are spensive.

steady pilot
#

No

pliant moon
#

what ammo should I use?

steady pilot
#

Best you can afford

pliant moon
#

why not front load?

steady pilot
#

That 30k you spend on ammo may save you 200k in kit and also earn you 300k+ in kit

#

Dont cheap out on ammo

#

Cheap gun is ok
Cheap ammo is not

pliant moon
#

hmm ok

#

im only at 1.7 mill

steady pilot
#

That's plenty...

#

If you play smart you'll win

pliant moon
#

and do you generally use guns you find/loot if hteyre close to what you normally use? or always use the same gun (rn Vepr is my kit)

#

ok ty

steady pilot
#

Fresh wipe

#

I had 14 receivers for veprkm stocked up

pliant moon
#

I need a gun box

torn widget
#

Whats the best sight fokr a ADAR?

steady pilot
#

@torn widget whatever you want.

#

Its preference.

torn widget
#

Aight

steady pilot
#

@torn widget find what you like

icy summit
pliant moon
steady pilot
#

Yes

muted bison
#

@pliant moon you can trade them for an MP5

stoic raven
#

how does a beginner rebuild from having nothing of value in my stash or on my person

pliant moon
#

scav runs

icy summit
#

Scav.

stoic raven
#

oh i see.

torn widget
#

it says item not compatible

#

When i bought a scope

pliant moon
#

scav is how i make all my money, by the time im done dicking around with my loot it's ready anyways. I barely run PMC

#

but im lvl 5 scrub so ?!

steady pilot
#

@torn widget you need rings or mounts...

stoic raven
#

i fuckin suck tho, i always die on scav runs

#

and pmc runs\

pliant moon
#

take it slow, use capslock crouch walk whenever you think u hear something, wait for 1 good kill then GTFO to exit

stoic raven
#

issue is, i dont know where the exits are

steady pilot
#

Use the wiki maps

#

And offline mode

finite walrus
#

is there a way to wipe off visor when its raining in tarkov?

pliant moon
stoic raven
#

i looked up a map to customs, and i dont know how to pinpoint my location

steady pilot
#

@finite walrus no

finite walrus
#

oh damn

#

cuz I saw a streamer doing that shit

steady pilot
#

@stoic raven go to offline and learn. It's not hard to learn landmarks

pliant moon
#

@stoic raven if you dont know exits do offline mode

finite walrus
#

was trying to figure out how

stoic raven
#

ok

pliant moon
#

pick ONE map and stick with it, i've only ever played customs

steady pilot
#

Well no

pliant moon
#

(apparently good map to start with)

steady pilot
#

Learn other maps

#

Customs is just quest heavy

icy summit
#

Yeah,Play all of them.

steady pilot
#

Interchange is a good money maker

pliant moon
#

I'm still learning customs though, whats the point until im comfortable with a map?

steady pilot
#

You need to use maps for different things

#

Customs is not good for money

pliant moon
#

Figured i might as well just stick with it until i KNOW IT

#

no? shit

#

i only really loot players anyways tho

steady pilot
#

It's a high risk bottle necked map

#

Interchange is much more freely pathed

#

And good lootspread everywhere

#

I learned on interchange when I was a wee noob

#

Killa didnt exist then though. Nor game was slower too

pliant moon
#

I'll try it out.

steady pilot
#

Scav run it

#

Atleast

#

For money.

pliant moon
#

ofc

#

probably why im still lvl 5 lol, scav ONLY bro

#

such a puss

steady pilot
#

You won't get better just doing that

#

Dying and losing shit is apart of the game

pliant moon
#

just got my workbench, someone said i use this to see compatibility of attachments or something? I assume it's that cool view I keep seen screens of with the attachments spread out?

steady pilot
#

The goal is to get better and not die

pliant moon
#

how do

toxic cave
#

when i click the find parts button in the modding screen does it show me the cheapest parts it can find on the market?

pliant moon
#

nvm got it

steady pilot
#

@toxic cave its buggy

#

Just buy manually

toxic cave
#

but its showing me the parts i need though?

#

whats buggy about it?

steady pilot
#

It doesnt buy for best price all the time

toxic cave
#

oh okay

steady pilot
#

Just screen cap it and buy manually

#

Its just a tool to help learn modding

#

Atm

#

They have to update it

toxic cave
#

idk if its for JUST learning how to mod, its actually a really nice tool to experiment with custom builds and even saving presets if you die and need to make another one

pliant moon
#

The workbench?

toxic cave
#

yeah

frosty crown
#

whats the golden rooster for

#

got one from a drop

pliant moon
#

i got mine from watching twitch

rain anvil
#

I think theyre worth 100k or something

lilac belfry
#

Golden roosters are a streamer item that sell for a lot and can be used in trades. You need one found in raid to complete the final quest for the kappa container

#

You get the final quest by.....doing every other quest

rain anvil
#

orlynow

young drum
fickle kettle
#

yes

tribal cove
#

Do drops work if I only mute the browser in windows sound mixer? I guess that twitch cant see that I muted that, right?

drowsy lantern
#

Yes correct

tribal cove
#

Great

plucky reef
#

tx-15 is thermal right?

icy summit
#

no?

plucky reef
#

tribal cove
#

@lilac belfry how much a stock tx 15 on flea?

tawdry lion
#

the market or any trader who buys it

pliant moon
#

not seeing cases on the market anywhere?

#

not a flea market item?

#

@tawdry lion ty

lilac belfry
#

I'm not sure what it goes for but I like th TX enough to make you more money if you're careful

torn widget
#

yall think a 240 SSD is good enough for tarkov and some other stuff to run off of

lilac belfry
#

what cases are you looking for

pliant moon
#

Gun case, i have a money case and medcase,

lilac belfry
#

weapon case

pliant moon
#

any other case that will help me manage my inventory

lilac belfry
#

is the name

pliant moon
#

ty

lilac belfry
#

buy an Items case

#

buy 4 MBSS backpacks

#

put an item case in each of those :3

pliant moon
#

actually?

#

I will lol

#

if worth

torn widget
#

Guys

#

I need to know

lilac belfry
#

Nope

torn widget
#

is a 140 or 240 SSD good enough for tarkov

#

Why nt

#

not

lilac belfry
#

oh

chilly loom
#

all quest has to be done as a pmc right?

torn widget
#

Ive only used hard drive my whole life

#

and i dont wanna suffer in hell anymore

#

I need a good ssd

lilac belfry
#

WEll

#

get yourself a 960 samsung EVO

torn widget
#

how many gb

lilac belfry
#

Depends on what else you do with your PC

#

I Really want to upgrade to a 500

torn widget
#

I want a ssd and a new graphics card

lilac belfry
#

i'm gettin squeezed at 250

#

BUT my motherboard has NVMe slot so my SSD has a speed of 1 GB

torn widget
#

Im just looking for like a 240 ssd

#

Is Kingston a good one>

#

?

lilac belfry
#

Kingston isn't bad

bold kernel
#

Is it just me or do the "fully geared" players on YouTube/Twitch play Tarkov like it's Call of Duty but beginners have to play it like it's a 1 shot 1 kill survival game?

torn widget
#

Should i spend like 20 more bucks and go with a 250 samsung

scarlet breach
#

dose scav xp and skills add to the main char? or is everything separated ?!

lilac belfry
#

@bold kernel it's always a 1 shot 1 kill game if the nakes are good and got got bullets

#

Scav XP is separate

#

My PMC is level 39 but my scav is level 18

scarlet breach
#

Oo scav has it's own lvl ?

lilac belfry
#

Most skills for scavs level at different speeds. Endurance seems ot level at a similiar speed

#

The highest I've had a scav is level 24

#

I want a level 40 scav lol

scarlet breach
#

how do i check scav lvl/skill ?

lilac belfry
#

In raid as scav, tab and go to Overall

#

Level is behind the scav avatar

bold kernel
#

@lilac belfry doesn't seem like it. All this body armour and helmets and super low recoil high capacity magazines full of elite ammo make it like COD

lilac belfry
#

Yeah and part of the reason they can afford to do that is because their PMCs have the skill levels to handle that kind of action

#

The stamina, strength and overall skill levels to have that kind of ability are because that's all they do so they have very decked out foundational skills for their PMCs

#

Watching Pestily silently run at Mach 3 and hit people with hatchets because he had like 15 strength and Elite endurance was only possible because this is all he does

#

the big reason lower level players need to be careful is their stats make them crumple

#

my PMC can currently take a couple ignoliks and NOT lose a limb or get a fracture

scarlet breach
#

@lilac belfry thanks bluething_heart

pliant moon
#

What's the fastest way to level skills?

bold kernel
#

point is, the game plays like a stealth shooter early game, then becomes run and gun.

lilac belfry
#

Do you want the short answer or long answer, Bandit

pliant moon
#

long bb !

lilac belfry
#

nah man. It's a stealth shooter dependin on what you want to do, and how you do it

#

I am always bushwookieing whether I'm level 5 or level 52 like last wipe

shadow solstice
#

For my first ever raid, I am trying to avoid pvp since i have no gear anyways and I will try to kill some scavs instead. Should I just go with a pistol and a couple meds?

lilac belfry
#

half of my boys do the front gun work while i am DMR marksman

#

that's a smart way to do it, oscar. learn the maps and get some other gear, sme cash

#

map navigation and awareness will save your life

shadow solstice
#

alright will try. I run the map a few times offline as well

lilac belfry
#

so, BSG kind of uh.....hm

#

"bitched out" when it comes to leveling skills now.

#

BSG is very much trying to level the playing field with casual and dedicated players (which I think is bad)

#

so now, if you are leveling a skill too fast, the game will decay your skill leveling. You can see this by screolling over your skill in rade

#

*raid

fast nebula
#

Where's the best place to find people to team up with for raids?

lilac belfry
#

besides this discord, go murder people Jack and when you have a good fight message the player you killed or got killed by

#

some of my best teammates are people I squared up with in-game

fast nebula
#

I gotcha, I loaded it up and tried a raid solo and got absolutely bodied

lilac belfry
#

yeah

#

That is how it be

#

and sometimes you're the one who kills 6 PMCs in a raid

#

so that's the short answer, @pliant moon

full lotus
#

how much is a military base checkpoint key worth ?

lilac belfry
#

the longer is describing each skill's max method for leveling

#

check the flea market my friend

full lotus
#

i cant im in a raid ๐Ÿ˜„

#

i spawned with one

lilac belfry
#

enough to keep it

#

I remember it going for 800k at one time

#

might be just 100 now

full lotus
#

well i died, rip

#

rofl

lilac belfry
#

it is okay

#

you are stronger now

#

literally

bold kernel
#

is "Road to Military Base" on the EFT community maps the same as "Railroad to Military Base" (Customs)?

lilac belfry
#

it's the northern part of customs

lilac belfry
#

where the railway ends between hamburger hill and the other bit

bold kernel
#

thanks

#

I have no clue how to pass a map

real coral
#

anyone wanna team?

bold kernel
#

I'll do but im clueless

real coral
#

np ill get u extracted

timber dock
#

Mr President

real coral
#

anyone else?

bold kernel
#

uhmm

#

Anyone down to duo with me

#

just need basic guiding

pliant moon
#

What's a good cheap start weapon for someone who has like 1.7mill, something i can afford to lose often

real coral
#

im down

lilac belfry
#

Mosin

#

Mosin teaches you to wait patiently, to hit properly

#

and it can take down anyone

timber dock
#

Or perchance a Vepr KM?

lilac belfry
#

Vepr is level 3

#

Mosin is level 1

pliant moon
#

what do you mean level 3?

#

im level 6

lilac belfry
#

When I sherpa/teach scrubs

#

7.62 veps are when you've killed 5 pmcs with a vepr hunter

#

after you've killed 5 pmcs with mosin :3

pliant moon
#

zzz

#

I dont want to mosin anymore

#

Vepr AKM or vepr KM?

#

any particular build?

lilac belfry
#

how long have you mosin'd

#

because it sounds like you didn't mosin long enough to be a bad enough bitch to use it on labs and succeed

obtuse basin
#

Does eating/drinking outside of raid level your metabolism?

lilac belfry
#

Yes

#

oh

#

outside raid

#

No.

obtuse basin
#

so you're better off bringing food/drink into raid then eating?

lilac belfry
#

do not do that

#

Yes

#

so you can't cheese it

obtuse basin
#

damn

lilac belfry
#

I found this out day 1

obtuse basin
#

because you gain healing exp healing outside of raid don't you?

lilac belfry
#

you do

#

you didn't at first

#

for the first week

#

if you healed outside raid, no exp lol

obtuse basin
#

damn ok

#

i'm level 21 now and only find out now ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

been eating/drinking outside of raid before going in all this time T_T

pliant moon
#

good sight for vepr?

obtuse basin
#

I personally stay away from VEPR...

#

not worth modding it

#

it's basically a budget gun that shoots AK rounds

pliant moon
#

I'm in need of a budget gun to focus on

#

i gues you don't put sights on budget guns?

obtuse basin
#

There's budget builds for guns, but budget guns like VEPR/VPO it's not worth modding

#

you can't polish a turd lol

crude geode
#

heyy anyone can partner with me and guide me some basic stuff ? ๐Ÿ™‚

obtuse basin
#

Example of budget builds are ADARs which are great bang for buck and you can mod it all the way to an end game M4 gradually

pliant moon
#

what should i be using as someone who's sitting around 1.8mill?

crude geode
#

i am online for 4/5hours BWT

pliant moon
#

ADARs... alright ill take a peak

lilac belfry
#

on VEPR put TT 01 weaver sight

#
  • PK06
obtuse basin
#

@pliant moon YOUTUBE SEARCH "BUDGET ADAR"

lilac belfry
#

you have won the game

obtuse basin
#

there's tonnes of videos on how to mod an ADAR

#

super cost effective gun

pliant moon
#

cool thx

timber dock
#

You can't polish a turd, but you sure can roll it in glitter.

pliant moon
#

would you start using ADARs if you only had 1.8mill and learning the game (lvl 5)?

obtuse basin
#

yes

pliant moon
#

cool

obtuse basin
#

also other AK's you pick up that aren't VEPRs are all viable

#

AK-105, AK-103, AK-74 variants etc

#

you can mod those gradually as well

dire tendon
#

Go-to AK scopes? Looking for like, a 2.5x or something. Red dots aren't strong enough and the 4x is too wild.

obtuse basin
#

most AKs you can put on TT01 weaver mount and then a sight on it

dire tendon
#

Oooh neat, ty

#

What's a couple good budget options to toss on that mount?

stray stirrup
#

@steady pilot any specific links for those guides?

obtuse basin
#

just do a linked search on that mount

#

and go for whatever fits your budget

#

they're all good

lilac belfry
#

yeah honestly guys

#

I know this game is hard

#

and scary

#

but the no.1 way to learn how to do this shit is to just try it

#

Minmaxing guns with guides and doing it right the first time is great

pliant moon
#

Pin that bro, then close the channel. done.

#

super helpful

lilac belfry
#

but it's also really fun to find out what you like

#

because of how the mechanics work

pliant moon
#

I am "trying it" im just firing off questions between matches

lilac belfry
#

Mhm

#

the Linked Search is probably the best thing they ever added

#

because man before that

#

yikes

velvet olive
#

whats the best ammo for 556x45 weapon

willow heron
#

had the stream all night on

#

no drops

#

wth?

stable nova
#

i wonder if it was a good idea to hoard the t-7s

lilac belfry
#

Once the drops are done

#

T-7s will return to being 5-8M roubles

stable nova
#

they nerf them ๐Ÿ˜›

#

yeah i guess

lilac belfry
#

probably within a day

stable nova
#

i hope i don't nosedive with them

lilac belfry
#

people will use them

#

and die

#

and then the flea market will have thei price rise

stable nova
#

but they will rarely get destroyed or?

#

either looted or insurance

#

would you run them in lab?

#

i guess not

lilac belfry
#

no

#

Reserv/Interchange EXFIL camp

fast nebula
#

@lilac belfry just played 3 more raids and got absolutely bodied again

#

even did it with groups, pretty sure one of the times they killed me

lilac belfry
#

patience my friend

#

all it takes is cheap gun, and well placed bullets

fast nebula
#

well I lost like 3 already so

#

4 actually

lilac belfry
#

tbh

#

the more you die and get shot

#

the better you resist later lol

#

Stress Resist meng

#

@fast nebula let me show you what I mean

#

That is what Stress Resist like 15 looks like

shadow solstice
#

What do I have to do to not get an early termination? I killed a player and a scav and had 1155xp

#

also what is the effect of the early termination

lilac belfry
#

That doesn't do anything

#

you don't want a Run Through

shadow solstice
#

ok

#

thanks

languid current
#

not knowing hw to leave an aera stinks

lilac belfry
#

I wish you had been there for Day 1 of Labs

#

What map are you stuck on

languid current
#

customs

lilac belfry
#

where must you go

languid current
#

well i only have a min left

lilac belfry
#

are you scaving

#

or PMC

languid current
#

scav

lilac belfry
#

what place

#

did you have to go

languid current
#

rail road to military base or a trailer park shack

lilac belfry
#

if you find the new gas station next to the big hill

#

it is straight back along the railroad on the other side of hill

languid current
#

there was gas station but i found no exist

lilac belfry
#

there are two gas stations

#

old and new

languid current
#

idk which is which

#

40 mins of searching

lilac belfry
#

One is next to a woodsy hill

#

the other is in a corner

languid current
#

no woods where i was so it was the other one i guess

shadow willow
#

Hey Brando, I am new as well and still get lost but something that helped me significantly was going into the map offline without spawns and just walking around the whole map

#

I looked for a map online and tried to identify where I was as I was walking around

languid current
#

yea that sounds like it could help

timber dock
#

Damn Scavs with seemingly thermal vision in the woods. Bushes aren't safe anymore.

twilit pike
#

I was stuck looting a crate and could not move or do anything i could only see the inventory screen with no inventory, pressing the back button does nothing. ended up dying. is this common?

stray stirrup
#

erm how do you "switch" item orientation in inventory?

full harbor
#

how u refil fuel can

urban panther
#

No. Sell the empty one and you just have to get a new one

#

Any tips on doing the gold watch prapor quest cause ive tried alot of times and died

full harbor
#

where do u get fuel from

tribal cove
#

After a nice raid I went to the extract and found 2 guys in a bush camping the exit. Killed one, but died to the other. I killed 2 more pmcs on the way. Isn't woods supposed to be easier?

stable nova
#

woods is like factory..

#

just outside ๐Ÿ˜›

#

tribal cove
#

What should I play then?

urban panther
#

@full harbor you can craft fuel at a level 2 lavatory. Or Jaeger lvl1 for 15 matches

#

Or just flea market

tribal cove
#

@stable nova

stable nova
#

im also a beginner

#

depends on your goal

#

if its making money

#

i would say interchange

tribal cove
#

Well, I like pvp and usually I just loot dead players :)

@urban panther Either hope for a good spawn and rush the room you need and get out before anyone else shows up, or hide in a bush for 35 min and go in after all the action has died down

urban panther
#

Do scavs spawn in mid raid(not player scavs)

trim herald
#

Yeah

hearty sky
#

Higher ergonomics better?

karmic garden
#

@hearty sky yes

hearty sky
#

awesome, tnx

karmic garden
#

Low recoil and high ergo is preferable for any gun

#

But for some applications, one or the other might be preferable

hushed raft
#

Does extracting make any sound?

#

I just got shot while running into gate 3 on factory

#

but I'm super quiet pretending that I extracted

#

Hoping for him to run in after just to fk him up

#

But do people on the outside get like a sound que that the person inside extracted at all

trim herald
#

No they don't

#

But camping that extract is REALLY common

hushed raft
#

Ye but its just the two of us

#

and I hear him like crouching around outside the extract near me

trim herald
#

He can try to wallbang you too

amber saffron

any ETA on when the servers will be back to normal?

Whenever their server architecture upgrades are done

Probably a previous raid

May be a bug then I guess, never heard of that type of bug before though

I have patience but not that type of patience @ruby nebula

ionic crown
#

So im not sure whats happening, could be my pc cant handle the game. but if someone could help me it would be great. Everytime i start up EFT itll just sit there and load and spin and i cant end task or anything. Normally I have to restart my pc. Anyone know why this is happening?

tribal cove
#

M856a1 or M855a1?

zealous swallow
#

Do scav and PVE runs until you know a map

#

Then try PMC

#

Thatโ€™s what worked for me

#

But Iโ€™m still a noob tho

#

Only 15 hrs in

#

With scav runs on factory you can sometimes make some decent money

#

Because running towards exit is short

I'm rather confused about this game

So "raids" are pvp right?

waxen forge

Raids are going into a map

On any map there are other PMC (players), scavs (ai), and player scavs (also players).

People were saying yesterday that Bartering is bad and you very often get ripped off and should turn it off. Is there any good deals or is it always bad? @waxen forge

long spear
#

usually bad

waxen forge
#

I wouldn't do any barters on flea...personally. Traders also have some barters. I really don't do any barters with traders either but from what I know some are decent

long spear
#

there are some good ones from traders

#

just usually not there either

Oh I meant traders. I didn't know you could barter on flea

#

Painkillers for 2x mattches or Car for 2x duct tape from Therapist seems juice?

When you search an item on flea often the first so many "offers" that have the little swirl arrows are barter items ... not buying for straight cash

what key do I have to press to get out? im really noob on this game

inner glacier
amber saffron

unless itโ€™s power station of dorms

#

you need to get money

inner glacier
#

or if you are not on customs, google a map for your map

amber saffron
#

and wait for a minute

inner glacier
#

@amber saffron what do you mean? I thought you could only extract on the 2 shown (scav) or 4 shown (pmc) by double tapping o?

waxen forge
#

? mark exfils are only Possible

#

And some have "conditions" such as the car behind dorms (for PMC) which requires payment.

amber saffron
#

yeah

waxen forge
#

Car by Power station on Interchange also requires payment

amber saffron
#

some need a key

waxen forge
#

Exfils on Labs require you to push buttons to activate them.

inner glacier
#

Can you always extract behind dorms with payment? or only when it is marked?

amber saffron
#

when itโ€™s marked

#

but i think thatโ€™s always, not sure

waxen forge
#

Some on Reserve require you to no have a backpack or have additional items such as RR and paracord.

thats 19 minutes man

can u read it for me

inner glacier

@bold kernel There are 2 different modes of play. Scav should be thought of as a "free life". Imagine you are in counter strike and you can select to play as bot. That's kinda like what scav is.

Information is key in EFT

you think tarkov is a 5min game?

waxen forge

Or buy another weapon from trader

amber saffron
#

but if youโ€™ve insured it, itโ€™ll return in 12-48 hours depending on the insurance

#

if youโ€™re new, i highly highly highly suggest you to play offline and learn the maps and the spots

#

itโ€™ll really help when youโ€™re in game

when i first started i went in with everything i had and died GWcorbinHolyFuck my friend who introduced me to this game blocked me for a whole month, and now i understand why GWjiangoOmegaLUL

inner glacier
#

@stable badge Honestly as a new player the three BEST resources you have are:
-Scav mode (you spawn in with loot so if you die you are losing nothing).
-Offline mode (you lose nothing/gain nothing if you die, only experience)
-YOUTUBE VIDEOS - These are a godsent and there are millions.

If all else fails just listen to king @waxen forge. He literally spends all day helping out new people here.

so tip for all the other beginners: dont jump from rooftop,s try to fight i guess :3

is it something to gloat over or smth trivial?

hmm and why does the price to pay does not include the discount? i mean it actually does but there's some VAT that is applied and get the price back to full

Vat?

waxen forge

Taxes are region based so they vary

ok i need someone with less than 24% VAT to gift me the game so I pay sticker price ><

Uh

stray stirrup

oh well, so much for the discount luring me in ><

trim herald

I mean it still is a 25% discount, not BSG's fault you live in a country with high VAT

stray stirrup

true true

#

but still i dont see vat being applied in steam or other shops

split vapor
#

You buying or upgrading

trim herald
#

It is Static, it's just done behind the scenes

waxen forge
#

Just go outside and scavenge some CPU fans and RAM and then find a therapist to sell it to. That'll cover the VAT.

trim herald

If you use steam in a different country you'll have different prices

NOT OFFICALLY RECOMMENDING STEALING

@stray stirrup except that steam does have vat accounted right into your price

@waxen forge Yep, did that. The task is marked as completed now, but I'm not sure where to get the reward items.

and prices are based on region

so unless you wanna break the law and commit tax fraud

you have to pay just like everyone else

@waxen forge Yep, but I have no new messages from therapist.

So it said done and let you hit complete? but no message yet correct?

Indeed. Also, it says rewards (received) on the task page, which is weird.
