You'll get varying opinions on that. I'm not sure if it's worth, but some people really like it
@tired heart lucky scav box first imo
Ok
the hideout needs more investment to be decent. you can save more space with the jukebox and can collect parts to the hideout on it
why do i shoot once and reload 2 bullets?
https://i.imgur.com/fVKiHjk.png for this shotgun mission, do I just sell them to him?
what silencer for mosin btw?
click the Turn In
ah ty
@open flower Well, I dunno the details and stuff, but 'one in the chamber' is a thing
Usually for some bolt actions
i thought it was something along those lines
How do you see weapon preview
AK 74 M or N ? Seems like M doesn't allow better stocks so I guess N can be modded better so N is in general better to use?
@tired heart you need to build the workbench in the hideout to be able to mod weapons off-raid.
Ok
Is there a limit to how many times you can craft something in the hideout?
what does the log.office key opens
Morning all anyone need anything?
@normal hound oli? You use it to get a task item
@languid flare definetly with the mosin and the sks. If you press reload it will kick out the button in the chamber so you could basically reload it as long as you have spare ammo (and going to lose the ammo in the chamber in the ground )
if my legs / arms are completely knocked out in game, is there a way to heal them?
@nimble niche through a CMS, which is medical thingy
thanks @frail forum i'll look it up
that heals them back to 1hp, so you can then heal them completely with other meds
@frail forum big help thanks
tbh it's not always worth, better off just using painkillers initially imo
hey guys, so I died after I placed that thing for the praptor tasks
@nimble niche survival kit 12 is better to use but it takes up a 1x3 slot
now its saying I'd have to leave factory
@pliant elk just run a raid where you survive and extract
alright thank god
@pliant elk just run another raid and survive
@pliant elk dont worrie better tasks are coming later ๐
awesome @mint hawk, big help guys, nice community ๐
cause I died like 5x on factory
and had to get it again on customs
finally I placed it and 5 scavs ran me over
i killed four but the 5th got me
@pliant elk oof.. Luckily I got it on my 1st try.. Got the perfect spawn for it below the stairs xD
@pliant elk even run through
cause I just did a custom run and the item was not there and i was wondering
just sprint for the exit ๐
was a good run tho killed 8 scavs and got 4.5k XP
i am looking for quick money runs.(no keys)
computer store in interchange seems alright, any other advices?
Oli in interchange
@plucky reef its something with a B, i think bramit or something. You can trade it for two power cords on mechanic level 3
computer store is in the oli, right?
There are multiple PC in olie and in the halls (offices) around Olie
Also PC's in Goshan
@mystic tinsel interchange hiden stash. if you want some weapons run the garage for the weapon stashes .
3 in Idea office too
@amber saffron thanks bramit yeah
thank you all!
Yo im doin the kill scavs with a supressed weapon on shoreline, just killed 2 scavs with the SVD-S with the Rotor 43, they didn't count, does that not count as a suppressed weapon?
!ammo
@mystic pasture afaik some of the new guns are buggy with quests so perhaps with the new SVD suppressor too
Ok thanks
@mystic tinsel I feel like shoreline stashes are the best for now since so many people are trying to get killa on Interchange
Farm the killa farmers for money
SVD does not classify as sniper rifle
Its the one that just says "suppressed weapon"
@Ignis Ardens#6551 same with the SR-25.. I think it might be bugged with the new suppressors
@mint hawk well the stashes are outside and ppl usually try to get inside the mall quickly so its still relatively safe i think
yeh np
@tropic jetty except the shooter born in heaven boys
Gotcha.
I still need 3 on Interchange.. So annoying
@mint hawk yeah, i mean it's tarkov. I got my most intense firefight in shoreline swamp. not even scavs are there but we run into a 3 man squad and hell break loose .
just started the game, how do i start my first mission?
@vale briar check the traders they have a tasks tabs
Also accept the first task from Therapist
ok lemme check
Once you complete those more tasks will open up with other traders
noice
Tip. Use the wiki for tasks. Task descriptions are vague. Wiki will tell you what to do. This is not a puzzle game so looking this up is just Intel.
for the therapist task
can I not just buy a gas analyser?
and give it to her?
I bought 1 but it doesn't work somehow

Find in raid
@pliant elk should be on the shelfs nearby the cashiers
On shelves. Can also find in the 4 tech stores. Plus chance in the storage room behind Idea office
TexHo outside of Olie, Techlight upstairs from that, Rasmussen near the caved in floor by generic...and the one next to Voyage across from Mantis in the middle of the mall.
you can put bitcoins in docs right?
@amber saffron yes
@amber saffron Keys & Keycards
Maps
Currency
Physical bitcoin
GP coin
Secure Flash drive
Technical documentation
SSD drive
Folder with intelligence
Diary
Slim diary
awesome
What is the use of Christmas tree decoration? I see streamers putting them in safe containers
You can craft the christmas tree in your hideout
It has a few crafting options inside it once done
And then craft with them yeah
Also the purple decorations can be used to pay for a scav case
If you're not planning on crafting with them then they're only worth like 7.5k roubles to the traders, you can't sell them on flea market anymore
The shelves infront of the cash machines, so you're there
Just go along the front of the store
@pliant elk its not guaranteed
k
Correct, not guaranteed, just the highest chance spawn location I know of
Because the only thing guaranteed in Tarkov is death
also worth checking the hiden stashes outside they contain random loot so they might have a gas analyzer
oh by the way how do i distinguish an enemy from a friendly
You dont
as PMC: Everyone
You dont
ok
as SCAV: those that dont shoot you
Yup
if in doubt, shoot
Ive died to players i thought were bots
If you scav to factory no one is friendly either
On any other map, again no one is friendly so just stay away from scavs as you're bound to get killed by a player scav
problem with scav on factory is it is so fast paced that most shoot on sight.
Other maps you may have a friendly scav interaction but never know.
Hey hey @waxen forge
Mr @slender imp \
Yeh factory is always kos
And most player scavs will kill other player scavs because they may have good loot or keycards
Hit up #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to get your PMC role
Yes boss ๐
Delboi where us Rodney the plonker?
Never know if a player scav will be nice or not. I give them a chance most of the time but have my trigger finger ready.
Shoot first, lean wiggle later
I usually kill on sight
Most of the scavs shoot me so i decided to shoot every scav i see. I dont trust them anymore. Too many kos
Hes selling moody watches at the market @hearty sky
How about Soviet Russian Camcorders?
I don't expect to find many friendly scavs if I use my scav on Factory. Other maps I've had more success.
should i click deal 
Got shot of them to Trigga
Be careful though, some containers show as full despite being empty
That's why you level traders
yeah
But its full. Dont sell
So you don't have to pay flea prices
This should be the price of emptys
ive got all to level 2, im working to get them to level 3
i got all this from twitch drops
That's the price for full ones from Jaeger.
Nice, id keep em and use them unless you are in dire need of money
Dell boy has a good deal for you
im getting 4.5k for each @waxen forge thats not fair ๐ค
The blue ones are the ones that you can make mag cases from in your hideout
you can poop mag boxes
why are you guys collecting dog tags?
Then sell them on flea
https://i.imgur.com/w3Gs4T9.png What do I need to search to know what sights I can put on the weapon?
whats the reason behind it
I though you were buying.
oh no, ofc not :lmao:
Hoard matches. 15 matches = 1 full jerry can
Certain level dog tags can be traded for items or used to complete tasks
so I keep all of them
was trying to give yall an anxious moment 
Some for trade but I don't know what. I don't do trades
@solid birch you can put almost any reflex on it
Or just sell to therapist
you just need a mount
that is therapist
Pretty sure currently almost all dogtags are worth more to trader than as a barter tool
im gonna sell on flea for cheap
@stone surge how do I find out what sight fits where ๐
Right click, linked search @solid birch
@solid birch Unlock workbench lvl 1, then rightclick it in ur stash and click "edit presets"
Wait no, at Ragman LL4 anything between 10-32 is worth trading for a cowboy hat
Easiest way is to upgrade workbench to level 1 @solid birch Then examine every weapon and weapon part on Flea. Then Right click and Edit Preset.
if you right click on the gun (in inventory) and select "edit preset" you can see all the bits that fit that gun
But before that they're all just vendor material unless you want to save up 10 of each for the Q
You can mod away and will be able to see every part you have examined.
@solid birch you need to have the mods/attachments examined before they show up as available in edit presets though
hmm
i used https://eftdb.one/ when i started @solid birch
it doesnt have all the guns but is simple and helpful for beginners
The edit preset is a powerful tool as long as you take the time to examine the items on flea
thanks
@waxen forge yeah
As @waxen forge said
To upgrade workbench all you need is 2 screw, 2 screw nuts, and a multtool
^ you can just search flea and go through ur traders
spent 6 hours examining everything i could see 
and examine everything
*multitool
Examine now and you don't have to waste time examining in raid which will get you killed
^^^
Just ask delboi he's the harry potter of Tarkov.
I loves me some magic
You are a wizard
it can be kinda annoying as there are hard-to-find mods (like 2/4/6mm mounts) that are required to put a sight/foregrip and such on a weapon
then it might look as if a foregrip or laser is not possible on ur weapon
man i really need to increase the ergonomics on my mosin
while you're missing a crucial small part (the mount)
-1 is kinda ass
Is there a way to try sights before actually buying them?
The edit preset will tell you want is blocking a part.
cant "try" them
Nope
Sad
but you can see their reticle on the wiki
Thats a good point
Guess if you kill someone with that optic you can try it without buying it.
@languid flare Just buy it and test it out in hideout shooting range or offline mode and if you dont like it sell it
@languid flare sights are so subjective to the users taste, gun and map. Just try a few and find one that fits
basically costs max 2-3k for a sight to test out
So just buy and try, gotcha.
Or be lucky and kill someone xD
Yea you will get a varying opinion on optics. I love the Valday but many prefer something else\
There are vids on youtube showing optics though
Pk-06 is a good cqb option
I would like to love valday, but the sensitivity is absolute shit on it. Can't use it coz of sensitivity
Valday is a good all round scope
i dont even get how people can play with that
ye i like the pk-06 for reflex
Can watch streamers and get an idea of what it looks like. If you don't know what optic they are using and ask in chat they will tell you. Check out DeadlSlob, Markstom, Klean, Pestily.
i just died on spawn ๐ข
f
@vale briar welcome to tarkov
My record is 2 seconds after spawn
Is killa armor any good or peope just wear it as a trophy?
oh boy
What map?
the worst is spawning in late as a PMC and dying instantly, that's the legit worst feeling
Says Killa on it
@hearty sky , repairs very well and is decent armour
Ultrahighweight polyethene armor = always good
@frosty plinth yeah i know that feeling
Hey guys how can i check if the scope that i want to purchase work with my rifle?
Killa helmet makes you look like a racially neutral tachanka
in edit presets?
- see if its compatible, keep in mind you might need a mount or some other stuff
sorry i'm very new
@cosmic goblet Just remember, almost any scope/reflex can be put on any gun with some exceptions.
- try it in http://eftdb.one/
#521628660298678283 and #news-setup @cosmic goblet
aslong as you have a rail on ur weapon
So you can see all of Discord
When you double click ob the item on bottom right corner there is compactibility part too
now back to my problem if someone can help ๐ฉ
Upgrade workbench...examine parts of flea...Right click and Edit Preset
@cosmic goblet If you have an AK you want a scope/reflex on, make sure to buy a Bastion Dustcover.
Or the tacticual rearsight adapter
since your new

and m80 ammo
I'm trying to find something to mosin inf
you cant put a sight on mosin inf
but the database says that i need another mount
for cheap at least
With the changes to nerf skill cheesing, is the Tank Battery in Gamma Container strat still a thing?

you need a mount, then a ring and a scope but thats for the mosin, not inf

or mng
tri rail might be expensive for a new player
@gray mountain for training strength? idk honestly dont think so
mng can put some reflex sights i think?
I would just play the maps normally and you'll be lvl 3 strength quite fast if that's what you want
and throw grenades once in a while
@stone surge Yeah, Im just really slow at lvling strength
!wiki PU 3.5x Ring Mount
Throwing nades also lvls strength
That how I did it. Just took in 20 flashes and tossed them at the start of the raid
Yeah but thats expensive. I do use grenades casually
Then would buy more later and do it again...since I needed strength leveled
I dont wanna just chuck them at the start
$ easy to make
you dont have to
It was worth it for me
yea I used flashes
and throw them when u need them and dont worry about strength
it's only 6k
and just use them when u need them or for safety
then it's a plus/plus, you use it to secure or zone an area check if there's movement
and you lvl strength
^^
although zharya's are not that great for checking movement, as the nade goes off so fast
before ppl can even react.
but walking around with tank battery is pretty pointless im sure
alright
and boring
Yeah Im kinda stuck with my hideout upgrades
was thinking I might as well buy the battery get to lvl 3 and sell it again
ye but there's exhaustion
because I know it was viable before
you lvl it when you loot stuff around the map aswell
especially if you go interchange and loot propanes and car batteries there
and make money on top of it
I mainly push my scavs to interchange
you can be stacked with Propanes, Motors, Cat batteries if you rush Oli
those 2 are the worst when it comes to looting
so they'll lvl strength on ur PMC slowest aswell
fair enough
Yeah I mean I basically only loot marked room and players
on those maps
on what armor points amount should I discard my armor/helmet/rig and get a new one? 5? 10?
@young drum less than 70% of their original default max durability
let's say you buy a gen4 that is normally 68/68
i would not use it @ 50/50 or below personally
the effectiveness of the armor degrades as it loses durability.
and 50/50 gen4 is the same as 50/68 gen4
so you walk around with broken armor
50/50 is still OK though
I mean, I ran a tactec with 30-40 durability and it works solid still
30 dura tactec sucks though
30 dura tactec has a good chance to be oneshot by m80 while full tactec doesn't.
I let it go down to like 60% or something then ditch it
any way for changing from bear to usac?
Reset your profile.
not other than reset ur account
@hollow compass resetting profile completely
where do i reset account from then?
keep in mind you lose all progress you made!
I dont recommend...
i've made no progress so it's fine ๐
But profiles page on escapefromtarkov.com
best budget sight/scope for the ADAR?
thank you
@pliant elk PK-06
@pliant elk prism carryhandle
I think you can do it from the launcher as well.
@hollow compass login to the escape from tarkov webpage there should be an option to reset account in your profile
do I need a stock for it?
If you dont want to change your gasblock
its always colliding with the front sight
A stock?
Adar should come with a stock.
Example of my suggestion
@pliant elk change the gas block than you can put anything to the body without obscuring the view
However the gas block/iron front sight will interfere with the PK-06
but the colt m4 front sight is always in sight
Mk-12
colliding really annoing
@pliant elk look at my image
@pliant elk change gas block

Ree!
!wiki mk12 low profile gasblock
Ok
That!
I always just throw an EKP on any adar I find for budget runs.
here the front sight is in the way of the pk-06
@pliant elk get the thing I just showed you
ok
Cobra EKP sits a little higher, so it's still usable with the front sight post if you're looking for pure budgeting.
i just bought the gas block
perfect thanks guys
Factory the experi
but good ammo!
Good lord just sell your mag box
ty I'll safe that image
And your money case
Ah the old vepr km recommendations eh? I really wish it wasn't actually a good recommendation so I could complain about it @steady pilot ๐
Youbdont have any money and you can just buy mags as needed
Sell them lmfao!
Buy them back later when you get money flowing
yea I had 1 mil
all gone
thats fine tho
I get like 10 loadouts back from insurance lol
probably
They arent going to change in price
whats the best upper budged build?
?
nvm
Like the next best thing?
yea sort of
@steady pilot second that. really good gun
Man hunter scavs got nerfed so hard
I had to hit a guy in his zsh faceshield THREE times with the ammo they spawn with now
Yeh they introduced scav 762 nato ammo for s reason
hunter pso is the weapon called?
R. I. P. M61 hunter scav. You were too pure for this world
@pliant elk vepr hunter
ah nice
Pso scope for 17k or 1p59 scope for 13k
and for armor/helmet?
@pliant elk make sure you get the 10 rounds mags for it
Just stick to ssh and 6b lvl 4 armor
ssh best budget and 6b armored rig
best budget loadout you can get for your money
Chad boonie life
I wear helmets mainly just for the aesthetics
Helmets dont do shit
6b5-15 right
we dont use helmet, we die like man .
d'you know where i can find printable maps of the game ?
which ammo for the weapon?
M80
m80 is perfectly fine
762x51mm m80
got really nice penetration
Dont run anything different
Rip old m80 too ๐ข
great thanks guys
Saw a clip of a scav helmet shrugging off a shotgun blast while flipping off the streamer. So they're not entirely useless!
It's meant to be budget
@pliant elk That's a pretty expensive loadout for a level 8 :x
Nah
No?
Definitely not
That's pretty budget lol
I got about 1.7 mil and I'm lvl 28 what should i use in your opinion?
Yeah I'd say so
Vepr like 30k, vest is about 50
@fair grail whatever you like!
Why are you very poor at level 28
He probably has itens
pso 1 or 1m2 scope which one is it
Hmm true
His funds probably are not liquidated
Just wondering if he's having issues with surviving
I die all the time ๐ฆ
jup
Pfft, I have 1m at level 35. He's got more money than me.
@fair grail any idea as to what your main problems are with surviving?
I'm getting around with 300-500k and running budget builds no problem
I only have 3mil cause I dont loot anything. I kill and collect dog tags, loot from players as needed. Money isnt hard
1-2 good runs and you back up 200k
So many new players running expensive runs, got a L6 vest from a level 10~ yesterday 
Got that fort armor from EoD baby.
@karmic garden I always try to get all the loot i guess thats the problem
They're new, they don't know the value. It's ok.
@fair grail do you start looting as soon as you kill people?
It's not ok - it's great ๐
lol
I've never gotten this many PMC kills before
I'm on the SVD quest so the influx of newbies with SVDs has really helped me out with replacing the ones I lose.
I played a scav raid yesterday and killed a level 6 on factory who was running his Xmas p90 and eod fort
@karmic garden I try to check the area but it's not that easy because I soloqueue most of the time
He had also desynced and was running in place
@fair grail is this your first wipe?
It is
@fair grail don't worry about it too much then. It'll come with experience
okay
Everyone dies a lot to begin with
What's the svd quest?
I had like 10 stocked up cause everyone sleeped on it
You need to find your groove
@steady pilot the SVD has always been pretty great imo

@rich cloak 15 PMC kills with the SVD

Can u not craft anymore 1 salewa for 2 ai-2?
Idk why people loved the mosin but not the SVD
Mosin is eco AF 
No u
@steady pilot TrIgGeR dElAy
I'm still at punisher part 1 because I'm not doing shitline

Fuck doing quests at all
^
After doing quests like 8 times over for wipes. I just have fun shitting on people and being cheeky 
Yup
Yeah, I like having an objective. For the most part. Fuck the majority of Jaeger quests.
I don't care about getting level 4 trades or anything
My objective is to make people punch holes through the monitor
I just want to dump on people on factory
I got a bunch of stuff in my inventory like a TX-15, modded m4, modded ADAR, P90, Thermals, 6B43 armor but I never know what to use because I'm kind of scared to lose the stuff and I feel like the things are so valuable
Escape from Tarkov is a game about stopping other people from having fun
^
It's all gonna go away in a few months anyway
Why be afraid to lose it if it just sits in you inventory being useless?
Just run it and if you lose it you can get more
I usually sell stuff that i'm affraid to lose, buy more gear i'm confortable with
@fair grail a really good way to climb over gear fear is to sell everything you are too afraid to use
@fair grail if you don't use it sell it
sooner or later you get more comfortable and with the money you can put many budget loadouts together
Yeah you're right
I dont even care about losing my shit. I just hate dying so I cant kill more people in a raid

Use everything, stop selling stuff you think are too good for you to use and buy worse shit. Use your money, believe me, the game is so much more fun if you do.
Go to factory with gen 4 assault, airframe chops, meta hk etc to get rid of gear fear (and tell me when you're queuing)
I just feel like I have to wait till I have a better Player to play with so I don't die that often
a im able to stock in the standard stash all i ll have with standard version ?
@karmic garden

Nah, thats bull. You will become a better player because you use better stuff
@karmic garden Yeah for sure XD
@twin eagle
Yeah using always crap loadouts will retard your development
@brave sinew I do not understand your question. May you rephrase it?
thats true I guess
@steady pilot You dont have to agree, but its true
Its not
It is super not
Sure you'll have a better outcome but you are still a bad player lol
Better ammo, yes. But even a good player can dumpster people with shit ammo
using better gear will not hlp with strategy and map knowledge
Use budget stuff as a noob, meta gear when you're intermediate, then budget stuff when you're very experienced and bored and need a challenge
but don't cheap out on ammo
well putting on an altyn and a fort armor on a beginner with a decent m4 wont make them magically a better player. Just a slower moving slower killable target
@sage olive prs 4 lyfe
I never said that better gear makes you a better player, I said it makes you progress faster to become a better player
When i buy standard version of the game (35$) ill receivd some guns and ammo and other thing right ? Can i store all of that in stash to explore game without lose or ill need to equip because of little stash size
dude as soon as I see someone I'm dead ๐คฃ
it doesn't lol
@tropic jetty unless they go to factory and it's all pistol players
Last night, playing with Tower, who had a mosin with 4x pilad, 1 tapped a kid in the face with max meta svd, fastmt with everything, t-7 thermals, black jack.
when will i overcome this hurdle
Okay, well it worked for me
@brave sinew are you still intending to play tarkov with a controller?
It takes experience @glass moon
@karmic garden I have seen ppl like that killed in the leg because they don't even know where to turn with their slow ass armor
Part of it is your anxiety kicks in when you see someone and it effects your shot
Being better with shittier gear makes you a better player. Cause you learn your limits and how to play smarter to overcome those limits
^
Really puts in analytical thinking
@karmic garden i wont
@tropic jetty only the most retarded of them are that bad but yes
@brave sinew good!
You and others tell me its way difficult
And you havnt print those maps to manual edit them ?
I never printed any maps
Just because a fight can be taken doesn't mean it should be taken.
^
When you're new just have a map on another screen or your phone or your macbook Pro
Doyou think it's important to upgrade the Hideout or is it like a just forfun thing
@fair grail I don't rate the hideout personally
And really make or break a fight
This
@fair grail dont focus on it early
Okay thanks
People are so oblivious and predictable if you are patient
And dint expose that you are there right away
One of the main things that got me killed when I was new to Tark was popping off before I had a good shot or had assessed the situation
If they spot you, shoot and try to win, or duck quick and reposition, let them come to you, cause 90% are greedy and will chase
If you see a scav even. You don't have to shoot him immediately. You can take a position and wait for him to walk into a shot....especially if you don't have the best weapon.
I remember shooting an sks at a guy running down the stairs from the shoreline radar tower and missing, then getting pinned in the building. If I had have just waited for him to start leaving weather station I would have had a clear easy shot
That was one of the first pmc raids I ever played
And it was a good lesson
A lesson that sks is trash 
@steady pilot word

I can't stand the SKS
I like it just bsg nerfed it
And it sucks ass now
Like irl? Hell ya give me an sks
I haven't used it since like last June
Played the early game this wipe with an ak-104
guys im new and i get killed every run i am very demotivated 4 hours into the game.. give me 1 tip please
Reset expectatons
Dont Die ๐
This game is brutal. It has a steep learning curve. Forget what you know about other shooters.
Practice offline with scavs on normal. If you can make it from 1 side of the map to the other 50% of the time without dying to scavs then you are ready for online
Don't run (too much). use your ears (listen)
4 hours in and dying every time you are dying due to experience (lack of)
@visual cedar maybe refresh?
if i go offline if i shoot do i lose ammo after?
No
been an hour since posting
oh
@inland mantle keep running as a scav, will teach you the map and not everything on the map will try and kill you
If it shows as one of your offers...i wouldn't worry about it
@inland mantle find someone on this discord to play with
Run scav...then run offline to practice while scav is on cooldown.
@visual cedar its a bug
im trash man i just play cs go this game is different cant play with someone @karmic garden
Its most likely on the market but not on your screen
do you happen to see it in the market?
Not at home atm sorry
dw ๐ thanks tho
@inland mantle everyone sucks when they start this game
@visual cedar have you tried looking at cheapest first?
Oh wait my bad
when playing as a scav, others scav dont kill us until they are real person ?
Unless player scav ...or scav boss
thx
If you shoot one of them though, then they'll kill you.
Choose map and time
Hit next
no map..next
Then Check offline box and "enable pve"
Or dont enable pve if you want to learn extracts
i cant go offline as a scav?
Got spawn killed twice, any way to prevent it or is camping spawns a usual thing?
Is the Flir good for example on an adar/Tx-15?
Depends what you want to do
Does it matter what you use it on
@steady pilot flir on meta mpx 
You got me
As long as it's a reliable caliber its fine
scav
Try them all out as a scav
@karmic garden What should I do with it
Use it
@fair grail whatever you like
okay
Put it on something and take it to woods 
okay thanks
Make sure your ar15, whether is m4 or adar, has m855a1 at the minimum. Happy scanning heat signatures up to 230m
I dropped a 3 man squad twice doing untar and m4 quest with a flir
M995 is not too expensive if you want to absolutely wreck without worrying about it
Its ezclap
M995 price is fine if you tapfire
If you spray mags like a cod kiddie yes its expensive
I'd say M995 is 100% worth on any semi like TX or ADAR
M855a1 works on faces just fine
Not so much if you spray an M4
Late @trim herald
You also don't need 60's on a TX or ADAR

@steady pilot Yeah but I like semi auto guns more in general idk why
Good
Semis are good. Trigger discipline and etc
Aim face
Ez clap
M4 is fine on semi
Giggle switch if necessary
It's a lot of personal preference honestly. I personally would probably run 885a1 on an M4, and 995 on any semi simply because you'll get more rounds on target faster with an M4 and while 885a1 is good I'd rather that little extra pen on a semi to reduce the chances of a ricochet
wp bruh
Where can I buy an SKS mag? all my traders are lvl1
It should have an internal magazine
^
So just get ammo
Also agree with rommels statement
Top load like a scav ๐
but I can only load a bullet at a time ๐ฆ
(Cause its ass)
ah
Shitty gun is shitty ๐
i thought it had a 10 bullet mag
and a 10.
for the Vepr I'd need either Skier LL2 or Market, correct?
still the mag it comes with
Yes but he wants quick loading
Which would be 20 and 35
(Which is still slow af btw)
Is there a way to figure out what the last quest in a quest line is?
Yeah it's the kappa one
lul
I mean for each trader specifically
@bold kernel there's an infographic
!wiki quests
Quests, both player-given and dynamically generated, are intended to be a big part of Escape from Tarkov.
There are many quests in Escape from Tarkov. Some require you to pick stuff up for certain traders, while others require you to kill other operators or mark vehicles and specific places.
Quests are the fastest way of gaining XP in Escape from Tarkov. Completing one will often reward you with thousands, if not tens of thousands of XP points.
On top of the experience, quests reward you with:
Trader Reputation. By gaining trader reputation you unlock new trader loyalty levels. Each time you unlock a new loyalty level you will be able to purchase a large number of new items from that trader.
Quest locked items. Some items can only be purchased from a trader after you complete their relevant quest.
Should I focus a lot on questing?
Or 2 horse figurines, @muted bridge
gotcha ty
@fair grail more or less. Focus on survival and then if quest is close by
It probably isn't but ๐คท
Nothing else to look at except flipping through them all
Yes I've checked the wiki but it doesn't seem to show me what the last quest will be, it's a random order no?
The last quest is collector from fence
its a set order..
I'd like to figure out how far I am from completing every quest in the game
its just hard to determine
theres a number on the tasks page of each trader
itll say "10/11 โ " if you've completed 10 out of 11
But that's just 10/11 given
The second figure isn't the total number of quests for the trader
Once you start running into Q's that are super specific for weaponry or gear, you know you're at the end
Although I'm pretty sure I lost a quest kekw
SCP - 3008 IS scary
You will have a few failed ones as a couple of quests you can hand in to multiple traders
Well said
I had the quest "an apple a day keeps the doctor away"
But I got an error when accepting and now it's gone 
That isnโt a mandatory quest
RIP the health xp
when does it come up?
okay
Guys wanted to talk about insurance, worth it not worth it?
Worth
Worth 100%
Many people will not take your rig/backpack, and even armor
Ok, but on everything or gun
Yes...if a 2 level finds it and they are naked they may take it but many people won't
Insure everything
So I disassembled a gun by accident, how can I put it back together lol
Unless you are on a meme run and just don't want it back
Drag the parts back to the weapon
Drag all the parts on to it @steep kettle
The only time I wouldn't insure is never - Abraham Lincoln
Like in my primary gun slot?
Ok so letโs say I insure it, when do I get the stuff back If I die
10-4 ty
As long as nobody took it
ok I got it
Therapist is faster but is more expensive for insurance
The hideout, whatโs worth getting?
Personal preference but I never insure with anybody but Prapor
Dont focus on hideout
The workbench will let you edit preset to mod weapons
Otherwise it has some benefits but I'd focus on tasks if you have to prioritize something
Ok, yea Iโm still learning the dam map lol
Work bench is definitely first thing tho
workbench is worth getting early on just for modding and learning how it works
Check the wiki maps and go to offline mode
and it's cheap
I think Iโve extracted successfully twice
#521628660298678283 and #news-setup @spare mist so you can see all of Discord
Oh shit
And you get a bit coin farm that makes money but takes like anmonth to make that up
is that in actual cash...not counting cost of materials?
lol its more than that
Stash included?
Sounds good to me.
How far in are we into the season Atm?
It probably is @fork187#1625
I know it cost a lot when I did mine
I just know 15mil is like minimum
Couple months @spare mist
So people are geared? I know when I hear a m1 I run lol
RUMOR is possible wipe in March....but those dates usually get pushed back by a month or so.
Even if you find the shit you needed that's still lost profit cause you dont sell it
Many geared but many new players as evidenced by all the white single digit PMC in the lobby over the weekend.
Most of that 15 mil cost is for the stash space though
@spare mist you're in luck tons of new players playing right now
And veterans are really scattered now
Still people whether they have gear or not, can be dumb
And everyone die to a bullet to the face if you're using good ammo
yeah i saw a lvl 32 with a 300k rouble m4 and some other gear using m855 bullets a few days ago lol
!ammo
Unless you like dying
Spend more money on the ammo than you do your gun
Big fan of dying
Killing someone with a 20k vepr and 20k BP ammo and wearing their entire 400k kit
Insurance is a beautiful thing cause you can hide your shit
I'm definitely the one dying there
If you die you lose your enemies kit
Getting killed by a mosling while rocking 600k gear 
Honestly, when you're new I would say the biggest benefit of insurance is that you'll very likely die a lot by scavs
Which means often your gear will go untouched
Best tip I can give is once you kill a man dump your stuff and take theirs. Then if you die later you lost theirs and not yours, but if you get out now youll have 2 sets
(Das what I said)
How good is the AK 104 ?
Good weapon is one using good ammo
If you want 7x39
7.62x39 is a bit meh for full auto rifles
Short barrel to 103, you get a lot more recoil for negligible benefit
Pg&e up
And down
I switched to scroll wheel cause I snipe regularly

Can i keep rewards for tasks in the dealers inv and take them like after 1 month or they gonna dissapear?
Not sure as I've never tried. I know they stay for a while just not for how long
Anyone know the most efficient way to spend money on peacekeeper?
Buying dollars
@bold kernel selling stuff to him also works well .
@SebyRO#5861 I have a feeling they expire after 48hrs. But I base this on insurance mail
You'll lose cash that way
So i have 4 million now, what should i do, go for stash upgrade? or buy a weapon case + item case?
@bold kernel
Can confirm quest rewards stay way longer than insurance mail
@winter surge I'd upgrade stash simply because I like to finish stuff like that
Mkay
Cases are more cash effective
I'm not sure I never had to leave them ๐คท
@steady pilot ?
Buy your way through part of the Gunsmith tasks
got some psu scopes Ive had in the mail for a week or so from a quest
@bold kernel just saying its unknown if expire or not, I'm guessing they dont apparently
But why? ๐
What is GP for and how much is it worth
26k to therapist
Trades
Ok
It's used in some barters but more cost effective to sell to her unless you're going to use one of the weapons you can buy for them
I got a strange message from papor but idk whats about either insurance or all the items i have in his stash from task rewards: "Today is not ur day - storage time expired."
Insurance expired
I like the PK-06
any cheap but really effective ak builds

Can someone suggest a real man's AK build?
If you got money just use an ak103 or AKMn I guess. Not really worth using 7x39 AKs on full auto
That's cheap as chips
Honestly Seymore the ak-74 series isn't that bad, just put a handguard that lets you put a foregrip on it and then a sight on it
And it's still solid
Just make sure you aren't using PS
How big are the maps?
big
T h I c c
In meters so I can adjust the scopes
Hey guys, new to the game, this probably has been asked but is there a map or spread sheet that shows what keys unlock what doors?
Does 5.45 do better against armor ?
@bold kernel ty
Slightly better against armour yes but it's negliable
This is the only map there is with 100m and 50m zeros
