hmm do keys have a chance of not spawning or someone else got it if it isnt there?

Everything is rng to spawn my dude

vernal anchor
#

Only a few keys will spawn consistently

#

And those are for quests

normal hound
#

how do i check how many bullets are in my mag?

elfin kite
#

ALT - t

steady pilot
#

Or mag check in rig.

#

If your skill is low

#

It will only give approximations

hmm what skill would it give you a number?

#

hey folks- anyone got a link to the latest .12 ammo tables?

tribal cove
#

Is there any site that shows how the prices on flea have evolved in time?

vernal anchor
#

We don't officially have that kinda data

normal hound
#

how do i buy stuff?

tribal cove
#

That would be interesting for stonks

normal hound
#

it doesnt let me buy a gun

tribal cove
#

Are you lvl 5?

#

can i do pve with my friend?

waxen forge
#

Offline? No

normal hound
#

how do i invite people or add them?

waxen forge
#

Can team scav or team pmc...can't team offline

tribal cove
#

Only offline by urself. Or online with other players

#

And ur friend

normal hound
#

how do i play with my friends?

stable nova
#

is there another way besides relogging or doing a raid when my fleamarket sales are not getting removed from my offer list after they are bought?

ocean pilot
#

what are earpieces for exactly?

waxen forge
#

Items not sold will take about 2 minutes to be returned via messenger

stable nova
#

no budcrain

#

thats no what i mean

#

sometimes when my items are bought i don't get messages until i do a raid or i relog

vernal anchor
#

Restarting should work, It has for me but I've also heard sometimes its just a matter of time

waxen forge
#

@normal hound You keep hitting next after choosing PMC or Scav until you get the lobby which is a list of names and a picture of your character on the left side.

#

Then hit "start looking for group" under your character and your friends do the same

tribal cove
#

@ocean pilot they make important sounds like steps, gun louder and the rest less loud(rain, thunder, birds...)

normal hound
#

ok

#

thanks

waxen forge
#

Then 1 person invites the others by Right clicking and "invite to group"

#

Don't team with rando

hearty sky
#

which suppressor is more silenced? hybrid or snd-6?

vernal anchor
#

There is currently no difference in sound

distant tundra
#

Ooft, just completed my first scav raid and holy moly

shadow solstice
#

is interchange good for beginners, to take a break from customs?

distant tundra
#

Intense

vernal anchor
#

Interchange is a fun map but a big maze

hearty sky
#

@shadow solstice heck no, you will die withhin minutes

vernal anchor
#

It's valuable to learn

stable nova
#

interchange is imo the best beginner map

waxen forge
#

Just avoid the middle due to the Killa farming and Interchange is fine. Also it has a ton of loot that can be sold but is also useful for tasks and upgrading Hideout.

heavy quest
#

@shadow solstice I mainly play customs to learn but did a few scav runs on interchange. They worked out okay. I wont bring my pmc in just yet though

hearty sky
#

how to do that bullet flying animation?

vernal anchor
#

Do you mean the reload?

hearty sky
#

sometimes i see animations where you catch the bullet in mid air

#

but i only seen that on stream

#

bolt action rifle, pistol, aks

frigid junco
#

get the wepon skill to max

#

the mastery, gets a reload animation

hearty sky
#

oh, i see. awesome. tnx

bronze oak
#

just got some gen 4 armor

#

how do i know how to price it on the flea market

vernal anchor
#

I think you can do it when you take the mag out of the gun, then drag the bullet from the chamber out of the gun, it should flip it out

#

I think it only works on a few guns though

bronze oak
#

its at like 55

normal hound
#

how do i see if i have a round in the chamber?

tribal cove
#

Is the tactec 50/50 good enough? Or thorax only armor good?

stable nova
#

@bronze oak you rightclick it an press "filter for item" then it shows the flea market listings of the item

vernal anchor
#

If you go into your inventory then double click on the gun

#

Yep for the M700 I can confirm it works when you drag the bullet out of the chamber

#

Chamber is bottom right with the round in it

bronze oak
#

@stable nova sorry i meant how do i know whats a good prie for selling armor thats at like 55 for gen 4. alot of the stuff i saw was zeroed out

terse summit
#

Does it matter if I get the run through status on a scav run

pliant moon
ocean pilot
#

is it normal that i, now being level 5, have not managed to extract even once, except for one scav raid where i havent met any enemies?

i killed multiple enemies (scavs and pmcs) multiple times, but always died on my way to the extraction point :/

vernal anchor
#

Yeah thats fine

#

It takes a while to learn safe routes

#

You're getting experience and thats what matters the most

shadow willow

Hello everyone, here's a fellow player looking for advice. I am new to the game and find myself really poor after a couple of terrible runs. I keep getting killed in Customs (beginner map) and half the time I don't even see the person shooting me until it's too late. What I want to do now is create a budget loadout to reduce the hemorrhaging of money every single run. I saw a couple of youtube videos for budget loadouts but they are like 180k and that's basically all my money at the moment. From what I've read what I should be doing is hatchet runs but I feel that won't teach me anything, I want to at least have a weapon and try to fight instead of running around with a little axe waiting to get killed.

#

are pistol runs viable? and if so which pistol do you recommend?

#

the cheapest one is the PM but I don't know if it's good enough to kill anyone

waxen forge
#

Use your scav wisely. Use it on Interchange. If you really are low on gear/$ just run straight to exfil with your scav gear. Then use that gear to practice offline on any map. Then after 20 minutes of offline practice go to scav again. Go loot and practice the map. If you die go back offline with the kit you have.

tribal cove
#

Is the tactec 50/50 good enough? Or is thorax only armor good? What armor should I use (not armor vest combo) that is cheap lvl 4 or 5

waxen forge
#

Hatchet runs (if you die) will leave you with 1% health vs. 30% health if you die with a weapon

ocean pilot
#

as you could take out of my last message, i'm not having much winning experience with it, bu i manage to get kills etc with a budget loadout of around 80k if that'd help you.

i use: SKS with 60 bullets (prapor, the bullets that cost 87 rubels each)
the 17k helmet and the 18k armor from ragman
and a sling from ragman (2k)
then just some basic meds on top (painkillers, bandage etc) seems to be very cost effective, has at least allowed me to kill one or two scavs and maybe a player every run, which allowed me to loot their better gear and go from there

#

@shadow willow

#

(if this is bad, pls correct me more experienced players :3 )

silver dome
#

are the twitch drops still working?

#

or are they iover

waxen forge
#

Still ongoing for awhile longer

vernal anchor
#

They're working

#

I just got onew

shadow willow
#

@ocean pilot Do you feel like the helmet and armor are worth it? I was buying the same helmet and armor from ragman but I get killed almost instantly with it.

silver dome
#

@shadow willow if your looking to kill some THICC bois , then go ahead and use the vepr hunter with m80 or higher. usually 2 shots to the chest is a kill

waxen forge
#

I got a Paca from a drop yesterday. Was stoked

ocean pilot
#

@shadow willow the armor only works vs shotguns etc afaik. but it has safed me a few times already, helmet doesnt protect the face, but it will safe you from into the back headshots i believe

heavy quest
#

melee weapons have chop and stab damage. How do I stab and how do I chop? Is there a secondary attack button?

waxen forge
#

As long levels your Endurance, strength, stress resistance, and other skills are low so you get damaged more quickly than leveled PMC.

#

Honestly @heavy quest 99.9% of the time you want to shoot them

#

Hey i'm looking for someone who would be willing to take me through a shoreline loot run and has a lot of keys!

anyone that could teach me the game ?

winged flame
#

looking for someone to play with, im totally new but decent at fps

waxen forge
heavy quest
#

@waxen forge yeah of course ;) But still, I might get into situations where melee will work out well. Better to be prepaired then

#

also I think it levels uhm.. something

shadow willow
#

@waxen forge Fair enough, so essentially the way to go is full scav runs and playing offline against scavs with my PMC until I get enough money to try raids properly again. I gather that means naked pistol runs are not viable.

heavy quest
#

strength?

waxen forge
#

Strength

vernal anchor
#

You can also quick slash melee by double tapping your melee button

waxen forge
#

@shadow willow Pistol runs are going to leave you vulnerable to ranged fights. Pistols need head shots and obviously at range pistols aren't as effective as a rifle.

heavy quest
#

@vernal anchor does that do stab damage then instead of chop?

waxen forge
#

I would recommend running offline a good bit until you can successfully run from 1 side of the map to the other and kill scavs without dying most of the time.

heavy quest
#

and chop when I "normal" attack with the melee?

vernal anchor
#

I believe it does the chop animation

waxen forge
#

You can use scav runs to make more gear/loot and sell it to traders to earn $

normal hound
#

i cant see my friend in the looking for group

waxen forge
#

Did you both choose the correct time and map?

normal hound
#

yes

#

and we did looking for group

waxen forge
#

Did they start looking for group by clicking "start looking group" under their character

heavy quest
#

@shadow willow I'm level 8 currently and I do scav runs whenever I can, also sometimes PMC pistol runs online and runs for playing around offline

bronze oak

verbal wedge
#

what does zeroing even do

shadow willow
#

Ok will do, thanks @waxen forge and @ocean pilot for the help. I'll use your advice. Hopefully I'll be the one doing the killing soon enough instead of all the dying 🙂

waxen forge
#

You will be. Just takes a good bit of time to find your way in EFT.

shadow willow
#

Hey @heavy quest, have you had any success with your pistol runs?

normal hound
#

!customsmap

vernal anchor
#

Zeroing centers your scope to account for standard drop over the range you set it to

normal hound
#

!map

#

!customs

verbal wedge
#

how useful is it

waxen forge
#

!wiki customs

broken quailBOT
vernal anchor
#

It means if you're zeroed for 200 then it will shoot 200 meters straight

normal hound
#

thanks

vernal anchor
#

Its very useful for long range shooting, but if some people prefer just aiming a bit higher to account for drop instead

verbal wedge
#

cool, thanks.

heavy quest
#

@shadow willow honestly, depends on how you define success. it got me scav kills for prapors first quest, also levels my character. I have an 10% survival rate that way, though. But I don't mind that, long as I feel theres progress. And it feels like that

hoary kraken
#

can you finish the bronze stopwatch mission with scav?

verbal wedge
#

no

#

all quests can only be done as PMC

#

as far as i know

hoary kraken
#

well i could get the key but the truck is empty wonder if someone got there first or it is me being a scav

verbal wedge
#

its you being a scav.

#

just extract with the key and come back as pmc

unborn hound
#

Hey guys - I'm 1 week in, level 9, ~1 mill rub, only bought the basic verison so stash starting to get pretty crowded. I've been scanning across all the "quest" and "hideout" items images etc but getting overwhelmed with what is worth keeping and what isn't from this shot.... any tips? Do I just sell it all and re-buy what i need as I need it from flea??

verbal wedge
#

ok @unborn hound

#

sell all those dogtags to therapist

hoary kraken
#

@know thanks!

#

upst @verbal wedge

verbal wedge
#

actually, @unborn hound just sell most of that shit to therapist lmao

waxen forge
#

Buy a lucky scav junk box from therapist level 2

#

If you want to continue collecting task/hideout items

unborn hound
#

Yeah I am still a fair way off LL2

#

Even just from PMC level

#

😄

verbal wedge
#

lmao i killed the woods boss without even realizing it

#

i am a such a noob

normal hound
#

is it usually take long to spawn im waiting 6 minutes

waxen forge
#

In that case then you may want to just sell the items. Check flea price compared to Therapist>Skier>Mechanic.

shadow willow
#

Just a heads up @hoary kraken I just tried to do that mission and failed. It can only be done as a PMC and after getting the watch you have to successfully extract from the raid. I got the watch but died before extracting. Be careful of the scav sniper on top of the building.

unborn hound
#

OK thanks @verbal wedge / @waxen forge - i'll just sell most of it for now

waxen forge
#

Check lowest flea price. If Flea price is significantly higher including tax then sell to flea. IF not sell to traders as it helps level them up.

unborn hound
#

A few bits, like the HDDs I know I can trade up for a gun

#

But there's so much to learn in this damn game, haha

verbal wedge
#

facts

#

its okay tho, im only 3 days in

heavy quest
#

@unborn hound I sell some quest items and keep some. I research the found item on the wiki and see if its used for quests. If it is, I check if I need to find the item "in raid". If it needs to be found in raid, I try to keep it. Otherwise I sell it. "find in raid" means you cannot buy it on flea to finish the quest.

hoary kraken
#

@shadow willow yeah i got the watch once as a pmc too, but i only had a pistol and it was night time, my yolo run to exit strategy didnt end up quiet well lol

verbal wedge
#

ive learned pretty quickly

waxen forge
#

Yea some are for trades but I rarely ever do trades so I don't keep up on trades as much as others.

unborn hound
#

OK thanks guys

#

I'll just do a clearout

#

should make me some valuable RUB too

bronze oak

is it just me or are the servers shitting themselves

molten ermine
#

What meds should I take on run? I know they should go in my gamma container

patent arrow
#

Depends on purpose

#

Labs = IFAKs for me, and a CMS

#

CMS for every run besides hatchet/pistol

#

Saluwa for everythn else

molten ermine
#

CMS heals blacked limbs but what does ifak do? Stop bleeding?

patent arrow
#

IFAK is a 1x1 saluwa

#

IFAK > Saluwa > CAR

#

Also painkillers

#

Just pocket those tho

molten ermine
#

Grizzly does heal blacked limbs

#

?

patent arrow
#

my typical meds loadout

waxen forge
#

Low meds like cheese and bandages only do 1 thing each. Cheese heals health points but does NOT stop bleeding. Bandages stop bleeding but do NOT heal health points. Once you get to CAR and up they stop bleeding and heal health points in 1 product.

molten ermine
#

Vaseline for ?

fickle kettle
#

cleary you didnt read any healing item worryWeirdBig

patent arrow
#

Vaseline are painkillers

#

but higher capacity

#

and longer duration

so better

molten ermine

I have 3 morphine from runs use or sale?

what exactly does the effect "on painkillers" do? I noticed everything is sharpened, what else?

painkiller effects let you sprint on blacked legs/broken legs, and steady aimed for blacked arms

molten ermine

Surv 12 kit better than cms considering cost and performance?

I never take it, it's 1x3

#

cms is 1x2

heavy quest
#

thank you @patent arrow

patent arrow
#

❤️

warm terrace
#

only benefit is that the surv12 heals fractures

fickle kettle
#

surv 12 kit is better than cms

patent arrow
#

oh rly

#

Tbh the 1x3 is a big throwoff for me

fickle kettle
#

no that not it

molten ermine
#

So surv 12 kit and salewa?

fickle kettle
#

surv take less the HP away

patent arrow
#

Do CMS and saluwa

tardy brook
#

I always run a cms vs SUV 12 kit due to the size and cms are cheap.

warm terrace
#

so if you don't want to run a splint as well as your normal meds, you can use the surv12. I would say CMS salewa tho

patent arrow
#

And a 5 use splint

molten ermine
#

Doesn’t surv 12 have 15 uses compared to the cms at 5?

patent arrow
#

Surv 12 is 1x3

waxen forge
#

I keep an Ifak or salewa in my gamme with a CMS and a bottle of ibuprofen. Also a sicc case and then a stack or 2 of ammo

patent arrow
#

CMS is 1x2

fickle kettle
#

just run CMS for cheap run

#

surv 12 for geared run

patent arrow
#

Nono

#

CMS for geared run

#

Surv 12 is too big

fickle kettle
#

so ?

waxen forge
#

CMS heals my blacked out...ibuprofen takes care of fracture and I can usually find a splint

patent arrow
#

Incase you need 1 slot and cant replace anything, where else would you put this bigass 1x3 expensive item?

fickle kettle

i mean we should ask him that what ver is he anyway

I only ever run Surv because of my Kappa

Honestly over time you will figure out which setup works best for you. Try them both out for a few raids

if he not eod and dont have a kappa

CMS is a must

vernal anchor
#

CMS is very useful

#

Im big into mobile, fast looting, and can't have a 1x3 item fucking up my gamma space

#

1x2 can tetris easy

molten ermine
#

I have EOD and I upgraded from standard and I understand why using little space is needed

heavy quest
#

I guess it really comes down to space preferences

patent arrow
#

Comes down to playstyle

heavy quest
#

yeah okay

fickle kettle
#

but sicc + surv

#

you still have 2x2

molten ermine
#

Lately I have ended up in a few fun fights every round and blacked limbs kill me if it’s two or a leg. So I am trying to figure out what to take. Normal have painkillers and salewa kit and a splint since I’m new

fickle kettle
#

and if do find somthing that worth more than the surv

#

you can just throw it out to the bagpack

patent arrow
#

@molten ermine The way looting works in this game is based on value:space ratio, so having expensive 1x1's is always better than slightly more expensive 1x2's. Smaller items tetris fast, and can save your life on multiple occasions ontop of the value boost

#
  • vest stacking in backpacks
#

And vests are mostly 1x2 and 1x1

#

slots

molten ermine
#

I get that. Last night I was in a gun fight and I had enough room to put the lab key in my gamma and I ended up dying but was happy I got the key

patent arrow
#

so big 2x2 or 1x3 or 2x4 items like guns are impossible to tetris, hence why you break them down into 1x1 and 1x2 parts

#

Size does matter 😉

molten ermine
#

So ifak is salewa but a 1x1 version?

fickle kettle
#

well ya it still depend on the playstyle den worry

yes

Just unlocked flea so trying to work out how it works

waxen forge
#

Because basic weapons aren't going to get you that much more on flea and take too much time to put up for me.

fickle kettle
#

it better to sell etc stuff on flea rather than weapon

waxen forge
#

Plus as lower players you guys need to be "spent" with traders anyway

hearty sky
#

Which assault rifle has the best rate of fire?

patent arrow
#

nobody buys pre-built guns too

waxen forge
#

Also selling to traders is immediate payment

#

@hearty sky HK best imo

Better m4

@patent arrow HK is a submachine gun?

What ammo?

hearty sky
#

oh, nice. kewl. tnx

patent arrow
#

m995 is too expensive for me, so use the m856a1

fickle kettle
#

for what joe ?

patent arrow
#

isnt m995 like 900 per round now?

#

insane

placid garden
#

For the HK.

nocturne nebula
#

@molten ermine IFAK definitely doesn't. Not sure re: CMS vs Splint, there's a bit of nuance there that I'm a bit too new to understand. I believe a splint will stop some pain modifiers but not allow healing whereas CMS would 'repair' and allow you to heal back up the limb after

fickle kettle
#

they use the same ammo as M4

#

and also why not m995

patent arrow
#

HK = M4 that shoots faster

#

with annoying front sight

fickle kettle
#

you shooting your enemy down with money worry

patent arrow
#

lol ye

fickle kettle
#

he would be happy to die to m995 round anyway worry

1 wrong spray control can fuckup all your profit

m995 scary

vernal anchor
#

Meta I schleep

molten ermine
#

@nocturne nebula so I could run CMS, splint, and ifak? What would be there difference if I used surv 12 and ifak?

fickle kettle
#

cms-painkiller-ifak

#

and if you want just use all 4

molten ermine
#

The splint job is to remove fracture but the surv12 removes fractures

nocturne nebula
#

Surv 12 will enable you to heal more hp on a repaired limb (80-90%) vs a CMS only allowing (45-60%)

fickle kettle
#

reasson why you painkiller cause it fast way to remove any pain debuff

#

very good in pvp and any sistutation

#

and if you only carry a splint

#

dont you everythink that you will get more than 1 broken part of body worry ?

what's the thing where you mod weapons in the hideout called?

fickle kettle

#

I assume i need to upgrade it?

fickle kettle

no just craft it

waxen forge
#

craft to level 1

#

need 2 screw nuts, 2 bolts, and a letherman multitool

#

Can buy multitool from mechanic for 21K

reef prairie
#

what does "increases chance to find better loot" mean? are the loot containers in a quantum state and the content is determined by the player who first searches it?

vernal anchor
#

I believe so

inner glacier
#

Yeah done it @waxen forge 🙂

#

Is there a quick way to cross-reference what items would vendor to the traders for with the flea market price ?

waxen forge
#

Not at the moment

inner glacier
#

Ah, shame 😦

waxen forge
#

For things that are not weapons or gear you would filter by item and check lowest flea price and then check therapist.

tribal cove
#

Reserve or interchange? Where do I make more money safely?

fickle kettle
#

none

tribal cove
#

Where then

waxen forge
#

I would say interchange

fickle kettle
#

you have to take a risk for both of them worryWeirdBig

waxen forge
#

Exfil as basic exfil instead of having any requirements.

#

PC's in Olie and Goshan with a good backpack can make you 200K easy without even having to enter the rest of the mall.

fickle kettle
#

just beware of the the exit camp

#

and try to avoid the middle

patent arrow
#

Reserve is a smaller, more dangerous interchange

tribal cove
#

Going to an exfil on interchange should I walk inside or near the biulding close to the parking lot?

patent arrow
#

If boss spawns near queens, your run is instantly lost lol

#

or halved atleast

nocturne nebula
#

As a still new player who won't win most of my engagements Shoreline has still be the most consistent way for me to make money. I stick to hidden caches and avoid that big building in the north

patent arrow
#

North building is the only reason shoreline is toptier for loot

#

Resort

nocturne nebula
#

Resort, yea. I'd never been able to get out of there and until I am geared at the very least it's just a death mission for me to try. The caches have been good to me and I don't get insta-picked off as much as I do on Customs

patent arrow
#

customs should only be run for marked room and quests

#

no $ is on there

little cedar
#

helllo i just got the game today and im dying 2 mins after entering. does anyone know how to heal after you die and a map for new players?

patent arrow
#

interchange is best to learn in my experience, but customs as a start

nocturne nebula
#

Marked rooms, big time loot areas, just not achievable early goals for new players

small perch
#

Hey @waxen forge congratz on becoming sherpa 🙂

nocturne nebula
#

@little cedar you can go into your 'Character' inventory, click over to your health tab, and you can drag any med items on to your character there

little cedar

@nocturne nebula thank you.

how do i find people to group up with?

@nocturne nebula that not working i must be doing it wrong on something do i have to be in my hideout?

gloomy fox
#

Do we need to be choosing the same server in the launcher if we were to play as a group?

little cedar
#

or in game

hearty sky
#

Gamma and Kappa containers can be obtained only if you purchase game package?

bold kernel
#

Also by completing every quest in the game

#

Don't have to buy

nocturne nebula
#

@little cedar Not in hideout, not in game. So on the main menu you should be able to click on 'Character' which will open up your stash and your character sheet. There are tabs at the top left and it starts you on 'Overall' for your loadout. But you can click over to 'Health' to see your character's health status

small perch
#

@gloomy fox you dont need the same server

hearty sky
#

i guess i have to finish all the quest until march xD

small perch
#

You’ll find the person you’re looking for in the game lobby

nocturne nebula
#

@little cedar As long as you have some med items in your stash you can right click and use them or just drag them over to the injured limbs to heal

gloomy fox
#

@small perch The lobby is global or based on region ?

little cedar
#

i have bandages

small perch
#

Global im pretty sure

nocturne nebula
#

Bandages only stop bleeding but they can't heal

small perch
#

Cause i can play with anyone, even tho we dont have the same server

nocturne nebula
#

As a new player the cheapest way would be AI-2 (it looks like a piece of cheese and most folks call it 'cheese' as such)

little cedar
#

ohhhh

bold kernel
#

But as soon as you hit lvl 5 stop using cheese

small perch
#

Yeah try to bring one thing to heal (cheese), 1-2 bandages, and 1 splint

nocturne nebula
#

Use bandages in raid to stop bleeding if you have a limb that is in bleed status

small perch
#

Thats a start up

bold kernel

You can get a salewa for 10k with 400healing

small perch
#

Welcome mate 🙂

#

You deserve it! I’ve seen you a lot around

little cedar
#

thank you so much i'm fully heal

#

so custom is the best way to level?

#

i mean best map to start for beginners

nocturne nebula
#

@little cedar Customs is the easiest map to learn but it is challenging because there are some narrow chokepoints that but you at high risk for engagement. I struggled in my first week there heavily, still do in fact. At the end of the day you have early quests to do that force you into Customs. I'd recommend trying to complete them at night to reduce engagement risk.

#

@little cedar I've had the most success as a new player on Shoreline. Less engagement risk and more opportunity for me to poke around and loot a bit.

#

@little cedar do you have two monitors? If so, I always have a map from the tarkov wiki for whatever one I'm playing pulled up on the 2nd monitor to reference

bold kernel

better off killing yourself so you don't "quit" the raid

placid garden
#

ah k

#

self-nade?

quasi pilot
#

@bold kernel not recommended with the updates... if you kill yourself or a friend kills you, your PMC will have 1% hp on all parts meaning the cost to heal up to raid again is higher

bold kernel
#

There's a leave penalty though

#

Where you lose the stuff you brought in

nocturne nebula
#

@placid garden And if you are meet an inevitable death and your gear is insured you can strategically drop your items in overlooked spots near you on the map so that if someone loots your body there's nothing on it. Similar idea if you loot a guy who has better or equivalent gear, you can just drop your insured gear and take theirs. Good chance you'll still get or original gear back

bold kernel
#

Aka insurance won't work if you leave > confirm leave

#

That's what I've been told anyway

placid garden
#

@nocturne nebula Mind blown.

nocturne nebula
#

Insurance is good =]

quasi pilot
#

best to do is toss your insured gear somewhere hidden... but i always try and make it out

placid garden
nocturne nebula
#

Especially good for new players. Despite the cut throat nature of the game, experienced players tend to not loot the gear of new players (they can tell by your dog tags what your level is). Maybe that's being nice, but it's probably just as much that your gear isn't any good compared to theirs anyway

waxen forge
#

Also many people aren't going to loot your backpack, armor, or rig if they have similar or better stuff. It just takes up too much space in a backpack.

quasi pilot
#

unless its another new player just starting out trying to get gear XD

hey folks,
2 questions:

  1. if I'm leveling skills as scav, will it level skull as pmc? I'm suspect that no, because I got situation when I leveled skill as scav and in subsequent raid as pmc I got the same level, but need confirmation
  2. when I use 2 different scopes I can switch between them. but when I bought optics with additional scope on that I wasn't anle to switch between them. how can it be solved?
waxen forge
#

Scav and PMC skills separate

#

Control plus Right click is switch between optics as the default keybind (iirc) although I've rebound a lot of that stuff.

#

IF you are talking about the HAMR optic then you have to also buy the red dot to go on the top of it.

prisma stag
#

so they can be leveled but just for that fraction, correct?
I mean, I can get recoil control 4 for scav and 5 for pmc, right?

quasi pilot
#

the exp you gain from scav does not transfer to PMC

prisma stag
#

I changed keybinding to ctrl and alt + mmb because I used to hold rmb for aiming.
I tried HAMR, yeah. didn't noticed that it has just frame, not the actual reddot at top, sorry

#

thank you all!

waxen forge
#

np....lots of people make that mistake with the HAMR

Is there any point in me holding on to the quest items from low down in the quest image? Respirators for example take 4 slots, i need 5 of them. They're 8k on flea. but realistically am I going to be able to justify holding on and clogging up my stash for ages?

#

WOuld love to hear your thoughts

bold kernel
#

i can't see any lower receiver

quasi pilot
waxen forge
#

If you have standard then you have to be more critical of keeping task items. Items that can be used by PMC (like respirators and hats) wont' go into it but I recommend if you want to stockpile task items to get the Lucky Scav Junk Box to hold the non-usable task items.

#

Otherwise sell if you need space

quasi pilot
#

and then it all depends on the armor the scav was wearing if he had armor otherwise you were just unlucky

holy shit, fml. i was so glad to finally have managed to bring home 2 mp-153 shotguns for the first task from prapor... but i just couldnt turn the task in!

turns out i need MP-133 shotguns... where do i get mp-133 shotguns from? :/

vital rover
#

Lol sorry to hear that @ocean pilot, you got bamboozled 😄 The shotguns have a wooden pump-stock I was told. I think the scavs on Customs have it, if someone can confirm?

You can just buy

@young drum sorry i logged in and was trying out the create new button on preset and what it does is once you have a weapon selected to modify when you click the create new it wipes all attachments and leaves you with just the reciever so you can start a new preset on that weapon

prisma stag
#

@vital rover and one more advise on flea: before selling something - check local traders prices.
for example, I saw a key sold on a flea for 55k while teeapist buys it at 61.5k. and yeah, if you selling on flea you have to pay money for placing item

is the quest that the therapist gives you worth it?

Doesn’t anyone get sarcasm

it gives relationship which gives you new items in the store

#

one more question, me being jkust lvl 4, should i sell or safe this lab keycard? (it almost pays for one whole of my budget loadout :/ )

prisma flame
#

KEEP

waxen forge
#

Sell it once you open flea

visual terrace
#

ok do i have to do it as a pmc or can i scav run for the red health packs

prisma flame
#

fine

waxen forge
#

If you don't want to run labs

prisma flame
#

sell

#

pfffff

waxen forge
#

You can find those non-task items as a scav or PMC

ocean pilot
#

ok then, either way i should NOT vendor it then? xD

prisma stag
#

you don't want to labs at lvl4 so you can keep it for later or sell on flea for like 200k

prisma flame
#

labs is a high level area high risk but lots of gear and you need that card to enter

waxen forge
#

@ocean pilot You can buy the MP-133 shotguns from flea once you get to level 5

trim herald
#

@ocean pilot It's 75k to trader or 190k on Flea, your choice 😄

ocean pilot
#

alright

#

what about the other key thingies? are they worth keeping? (they are all from customs )

waxen forge
#

Search them on Wiki

#

It will tell you what they do and if they are needed for task

stable olive
prisma stag
#

wait for lvl5 and decide basing on flea market prices. I usually keep one of the each key and sold everything extra to therapist or flea (depending on the which price is higher)

I saw on a pestily video I could buy a lucky scav case from Therapist. I do not see it. Does that mean I need to level her up to get the option?

fresh linden
#

whats a lucky scav case?

inner glacier
#

Brilliant. How do I level her up? Just buying from her or? Does it take a long time?

#

can I level her up by selling back to her?

tribal cove
#

No. You need to do the tasks

trim herald
#

@inner glacier You have rep you gain from tasks, you also have a spending treshold you need to reach by buying and selling. You can buy stuff from traders and sell it back to them to speed it up

"Reputation is gained upon successfully completing deals, every ₽100,000 gained from deals incrementing the players' reputation"

Just type in sal

Just selling items gain your rep

oh great thanks

prisma stag
#

@inner glacier to check how to level up rhe trader - open the trader and look at top right of the screen. it will show requirements and current level of sum, rep and so on. to gain rep do quests

are you buying it for yourself or for a quest @inner glacier

#

The Q I think

fresh linden
#

do raiders spawn on factory?

split vapor
#

No

#

Just labs always

#

And milbase occasionally when called in

#

And a group can spawn when the train arrives

trim herald
#

There was an event where they spawned on every map, in case you've seen it in videos

fresh linden
#

does scav loot scale with player level?

split vapor
#

No

#

Rng

fresh linden
#

so i could get a scav with full fort and an m4?

split vapor
#

No

#

!wiki scavs

broken quailBOT
split vapor
#

Shows everything you can have

#

Gear wise

#

You spawn with any item in your bag or pockets

#

Well loot items

trim herald
#

You could spawn with fort back in the day though

fresh linden
#

yeah i got 3 labs access keys from scavs

split vapor
#

Eh

#

The ai could

amber saffron
#

the only good things you get as a scav is the loot tbh, the guns are usually ass

split vapor
#

Super rarely at like 5 minutes left in a raid

trim herald
#

AI could spawn with Fort from the start

#

Fo shizzle

split vapor
#

It’s why people farmed factory for the supplier quest

#

Get that fort

trim herald
#

I distinctly remember coming out of the shortcut on Customs and running into a scav with fort within the first 3 min of the map

split vapor
trim herald
#

But they were more common late, sure

inner glacier
#

What is Fort? @trim herald

i saved my to my 2nd monitor desk top and open it during game

74m

#

Better and cheaper also better and cheaper ammo

viral ibex
#

ok

#

thanks

stark plover
#

OP Sks or SKS

split vapor
#

Akms even modded is still uncontrollable as hell

#

Neither get your self a 762 vepr

#

Also the first reason

#

Better stat wise

#

Plus you have mags

#

Over the stock 10 round internal

vital rover
#

But smaller caliber and less damage no?

split vapor
#

Uh

#

Eh

#

No

#

That’s not how that works

stark plover
#

What map do I play? I hate customs because I always get killed and it feels like there's too many people

vital rover
#

Isn't AK-74M 5.45x39mm

split vapor
#

The other maps have more people

vital rover
#

AKM is 7.62

split vapor
#

Yeah

#

Yeah

vital rover
#

so higher damage

#

higher TTK

split vapor
#

No?

serene eagle
#

Higher dmg would mean smaller ttk hopefully lmao

vital rover
#

Yes then that's what I meant obviously, "lmao" truly hilarious

split vapor
#

All 762x39 rounds are trash besides BP

#

Any 545 platform is more controllable and easier to use

#

And rounds are just better

vital rover
#

yeah ok,

#

I have limited exp it's just in arma I'd always prefer 7.62 guns

#

but there's not even wall penetration here i guess

split vapor
#

Plus 762 BP is a locked round

#

Making it unrealisticly expensive

#

The minimum 545 to use is BP then BT and best is BS

#

7n39 is best pen but does no damage

vital rover
#

Why is SKS recommended so highly then?

#

as a beginner weap

split vapor
#

It’s cheap

#

Kinda it

vital rover
#

Yeah tapping heads with it seems easy and insane dmg even to geared players

split vapor
#

Vepr is cheap from flea 10k for the scav model and a stock is like 2k

#

Plus you have cheap magainzes

glossy sapphire
#

If I loot a hatchet off someone, do I get to keep it like the knife? Is it auto insured or do I have to do that each raid

#

Standard btw

split vapor
#

And it’s easier to mod a vepr over the very limited sks modsing

#

The normal sks only takes like 2 mods a suppressor and rail

#

Opsks can take dovetail optics but the opsks has slightly worse stats over the normal sks

young drum
#

how much time you have to reconnect (e. g. after your game crashed)?

split vapor
#

Once you get back into the menu and hit reconnect they’ll be a timer that’s like 2 minutes before you’re done. But that only starts once you get in the game menu
