beginners-assistance

[grim wagon]

being able to make salewas is op

[celest fox]

nap time now, be back in a bit

[fickle kettle]

but

i thought nikita just remove the 2 AI-2 -> Salewas

[bold kernel]

can i buy fule or do i need to find it?

[night mural]

Both

[tepid sail]

I just did it like a hour ago @fickle kettle

[fickle kettle]

ya

[night mural]

OLI on interchange is a fairly decent spot for fuel

[fickle kettle]

w8 what ?

[grim wagon]

they removed the ai-2 craft but not the splint+painkiller+bandage one

[fickle kettle]

@tepid sail how did you do that an hour ago ?

[grim wagon]

not the AI2 one for sure

[fickle kettle]

100% not the AI2

[worldly frost]

Any experienced player available to call to give me stash and economy advice all around on a discord call & screenshare?

[fickle kettle]

if it was

you are arrested

[bold kernel]

i can still craft ai-2

[grim wagon]

not what we are saying

[fickle kettle]

no i mean the 2 AI-2 into a salewa

[bold kernel]

ah ok

[tepid sail]

sorry, 5 hours ago, but ja, I've been raiding all day

Idk when the patch was

[grim wagon]

it got remove over a day ago

[fickle kettle]

there was never a patch for that

[tepid sail]

I must be crazy

[fickle kettle]

but atleast we can craft pile of med now

[bold kernel]

how long time does it take to become good at this game?

[fickle kettle]

1-2 wipe

[bronze ice]

Depends on what you consider good

[grim wagon]

^

[night mural]

^

[bronze ice]

I thought I was good last wipe

[bold kernel]

should i just play with pistols as a new player or?

[bronze ice]

Here I am, feeling like a noob after two wipes

[misty monolith]

So, I've had the medstation for a day or two now, but I have no idea where to even get fuel

[night mural]

I've got over 900 hours in raid time and I still have moments where I feel terrible.

[bronze ice]

@bold kernel I'd recommend Vepr

Pistols will get taken from your body

[night mural]

Oli back shelves are decent for fuel

[bold kernel]

where can i buy vepr?

cant find it

[fickle kettle]

pistol is okay for figthing scav

it a way to learn how2 headshot anyway

[bronze ice]

But it's NOT ECO

[bold kernel]

hahha i know how to headshot from pubg and modernwarafre but this is some next lvl of difficulty

[fickle kettle]

it will if you kill some 1 with it

[bronze ice]

[rocky ocean]

@bold kernel which maps are you playing?

[night mural]

I killed someone through kiba glass with an APS yesterday

[fickle kettle]

well

[night mural]

My proudest achievement.

[fickle kettle]

at least THIS GAME HAVE A GOOD HITBOX 👌

[bronze ice]

Ye, the head hitboxes are quite large

[fickle kettle]

R6 hitbox flashback

[worldly frost]

@fickle kettle I'll upload a clip in a few and tag you when I share it, you can laugh at me.

[languid flare]

Every time I do a PMC run, I die.

Only items I get are the Container ones

Scav runs= $$$$

[bold kernel]

i fell u

feel*

[languid flare]

[bold kernel]

@rocky ocean custums getting fucked from every way i can but ye

[night mural]

Play your pmc the same way you play your scav

[bronze ice]

Haven't done scav runs in weeks

[misty monolith]

Except for the fact that my scav is kitted better than my PMC because I spend most of my hard earned cash on medkits and new guns because I'm rubbish

[bold kernel]

is there wipes every month or?

[night mural]

Not every month

[bold kernel]

how often?

[night mural]

Next one is rumoured to be march

[languid flare]

Next is RUMORED to be MArch

[worldly frost]

ah.. can't wait to share this video around everywhere

[tawdry dune]

every like super major patch

[worldly frost]

maybe put it on reddit and receive hella ratings.

[bronze ice]

Seems to be around every year

Not sure tho

[bold kernel]

link it here goona upvote it

[night mural]

Normally not a whole year

[bronze ice]

We just had one 1-2 months ago now

[grim wagon]

6 months is about the longest

[foggy zinc]

When you enter a bus do all the windows explode like it used to?

[grim wagon]

no

[bronze ice]

Oh

[solar inlet]

Hi, I’m new to pc gaming and I bought this game (I know). Been doing a few offline raids but about to do an online Scav Raid. Any help would be appreciated

[foggy zinc]

awesome, soooo many times i shit my pants a few years ago with that feature lol

[rocky ocean]

@bold kernel wouldnt recommend pistol on customs more like mosin sks vepr

Or aks

[tawdry dune]

so I have a questions, is anyone else having an issue with backpacks disappearing from inventory after logging outs?

[bold kernel]

just checked cant buy vepr

[fickle kettle]

@bold kernel flea

[bold kernel]

sks i cant buy the mags

[rocky ocean]

Adar is also very good

Which lvl are you?

[bold kernel]

ah ok like never checked that

im 5

[fickle kettle]

ah 5

[night mural]

@solar inlet I wont be on for another 12 hours or so but feel free to dm me questions or anything you need

[fickle kettle]

safe to go

[rocky ocean]

You can buy everything from the flea market

[bold kernel]

but it is like trade in stuff?

[rocky ocean]

No

[bold kernel]

i dont have these stuff that i need to trade in

[rocky ocean]

You can filter out trades

[solar inlet]

@night mural I appreciate it, thanks Stanley

[bold kernel]

ah ok

[solar inlet]

Stanler*

[rocky ocean]

Top left should be a gearwheel

[misty monolith]

I.. only just realised that your pouch-thing doesn't get lost on death

[rocky ocean]

You always keep your container

But only that

Nothing else

[misty monolith]

Well yeah, but that means I can take like a whopping 4 items with me every time I die!

[rocky ocean]

Yep

[bold kernel]

got one vepr for 12k and one for 14 what ammo should i use?

[rocky ocean]

!ammo

[tribal robin]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[bold kernel]

what container u mean? the poach or whats called

[rocky ocean]

Alpha container

[night mural]

Yeah the safe container

[bold kernel]

can u like buy bigger ones+

[night mural]

Alpha, beta, gamma, epsilon and kappa

[rocky ocean]

If you have the standart edition

[bold kernel]

ye i do

[rocky ocean]

@bold kernel you can get bigger ones through upgrading your game or completing all missions

[bold kernel]

ah ok

[night mural]

Or by finishing the punisher quest line

Punisher pt6 gives you the epsilon

2x4

[rocky ocean]

After all tasks you get the biggest container

[bold kernel]

ah ok

what to do when im absolutley broke cuz i know im 100% going to become that

[night mural]

Daddy prapor gives you a handout

But also scav runs

[bold kernel]

ah ok

[night mural]

It's very easy to make money on scav runs on certain maps

[bold kernel]

i get killed most of the times but yeh

[misty monolith]

When I'm scav for some reason I always misjudge a player as a scav, and then get my head blown off

[spiral dirge]

You never lose your melee weapon either btw

[night mural]

It's easy to just straight out avoid confrontations as a scav on some maps

Interchange is your best friend as a scav

Lots of loot spots that keep you out of the hot areas

[wet spade]

what's a good

armor for lvl 3-4?

[fickle kettle]

do you have ragman level 2 ?

[spiral dirge]

Get lvl5 and buy class 3 or 4 off flea

Just not ceramic

[amber saffron]

paca is good if you’re new

[spiral dirge]

Ya

[wet spade]

nope

i'm only lvl 7

6**

[spiral dirge]

Kirasa and the press armor are class 3

And cheap

[night mural]

Paca is only really any good at stopping scavs

[wet spade]

prress armor?

[bold kernel]

Class 4 no?

[night mural]

Press is class 3

[fickle kettle]

the problem about those 2 that you cant buy them that easy

[bold kernel]

hm

[warm stream]

Paca will only stop pistol rounds too. Anything larger and it's night night

[night mural]

Not bad at buckshot too right

[fickle kettle]

for a low level

a paca would be okay

until you get to level 15

den we could talk about other thing

[warm stream]

Not sure. Buckshot you need to just aim for flesh anyways

[wet spade]

what armor should I get 😮

[amber saffron]

yea paca is fine for a level 6

[fickle kettle]

just wear a paca

[night mural]

Honestly any armour is worth running If it's something you have and aren't buying

[fickle kettle]

den kill scav or somthing

[amber saffron]

why are you taking 2 guns 😩

[wet spade]

oh i just extracted

XD

[warm stream]

Yeah paca will definitely help out a good bit. It's definitely better than none

[fickle kettle]

and den stole from the guard

[wet spade]

and the sniper is pretty hard to aim close T-T

[fickle kettle]

i mean scav*

[night mural]

2 guns is my meta

Vpo and an mp9 with luger

[fickle kettle]

ah

that combo

[night mural]

Perfection

[amber saffron]

how can you afford two guns at level 6, one of them being an svds

the heck

[bold kernel]

bruh

[wet spade]

got it from a player

[night mural]

Throw on a kolpak and we have a real loadout

[amber saffron]

ah

i was a broke shit at level 6

like 30k roubles

[warm stream]

I ain't even got that much

[worldly frost]

I'm lvl6 with 1.4mil roubles xD

[bold kernel]

whaaaa

im lvl 15 with 771k

[amber saffron]

you have a lot of good stuff in your stash that you can make money out of btw

[wet spade]

oh?

what do I sell?

[amber saffron]

keep the keys

some of them you need for a quest

like the 206

[bold kernel]

help

[amber saffron]

do you play customs

[wet spade]

yes i play custom

[bold kernel]

yes

[warm stream]

Also check out some YouTubers videos man. There are tons of guides on what to and how to do it starting out.

[wet spade]

& why is this helm so cheap?

Oh $

Sorry

[bold kernel]

lmao

[amber saffron]

LOL

[bold kernel]

it's like

100k+

[amber saffron]

ye

[mighty jasper]

Cheap :^)

[bold kernel]

yeah cheap

[amber saffron]

flex

[bold kernel]

yes

[mighty jasper]

^

[amber saffron]

i use a ssh-68

[bold kernel]

Helmets bad

[amber saffron]

the shit i can afford

[bold kernel]

lemme just flex on yall lmao

[wet spade]

Sorry what's a RM-ed?

RMed

[mighty jasper]

@amber saffron You should get the other class 3 helm that costs 32k

[amber saffron]

which one

[mighty jasper]

I cant quite recall the name

Uh

Level 3 very little penalties

[grim wagon]

6b47

lsh light

ssh

[amber saffron]

oh

[grim wagon]

zsh

[mighty jasper]

Yeah I think

[grim wagon]

many helmet

[amber saffron]

thanks

i’ll try it out

[grim wagon]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Headwear#Armor boop

[wet spade]

does sound reduction

work like a headset?

[grim wagon]

its the opposite

it muffles sound

[wet spade]

so it's "bad" right?

[night mural]

Yeah

[grim wagon]

yeah

but you get better coverage for it

[night mural]

Unless it's a kolpak

Then you get no coverage

Or hearing

[grim wagon]

lul

[warm stream]

@grim wagon y'all still looking for discord mods?

[grim wagon]

think so

[wet spade]

so is the penis helm the best for lvl 3 helm?

[warm stream]

Also guys I recommend buying some sort of headset too and get use to them. It's worth it

[grim wagon]

^^^

use one type and get used to it

comtac or sordin

sordin is more bassy.

[night mural]

The penis helm is fantastic for the price

[mighty jasper]

@wet spade Best bang for your buck, not the best by any means though

[night mural]

The gssh? Headset is decent for me

[mighty jasper]

I stopped using it after reading the penalties

[warm stream]

Oh. I didn't think they were all that different function wise

[tawdry estuary]

Damn started playing just now... hardcore game 😛

[wet spade]

can i always wear a headset despite my helmet?

[tawdry estuary]

get killed evry time 😄

[mighty jasper]

Welcome to Tarkov :^)

@wet spade No

Some helmets block headsets

[wet spade]

ahh, so long as it covers my ear

I cant?

alright

[mighty jasper]

No

[night mural]

Some of the headsets are too much imo

Like soundwise

[mighty jasper]

Some helmets cover the ears and allow headsete

S

[grim wagon]

theres a note of that on the link above

[warm stream]

@tawdry estuary this game is not like MW or COD or anything at all. Playing this game like one of them and it's not gonna be good for ya.

[mighty jasper]

!wiki headwear

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Headwear

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Headwear

Headwear in Escape from Tarkov offers multiple purposes.
There are cosmetic items, protective helmets and utility items. Each helmet offers protection for different zones of the head, which becomes an important consideration before heading into combat.
Another important consideration to make is that different helmets will have a different impact on how much sound they muffle. Sound is an important part of the gameplay in Escape from Tarkov.
Escape from Tarkov also features modular helmets, which will influence and change the amount of zones protected by the helmet. The zones, or segments, are as follows: Top, Nape, Ears, Eyes and Jaws.
To learn more about the effectiveness of armored headwear check the Ballistics page.

[tawdry estuary]

idd ... used to play CoD and css 🙂

[mighty jasper]

There you go

The b47 mentioned earlier covers ears and allows headsets

[tawdry estuary]

but just a starters question, how you see the extraction points 😄

[icy summit]

you go up to them

the counter counts down

you extract.

[warm stream]

Double tap O and it list your extraction points. I've been pulling up the tarkov wiki page and using the maps

[misty monolith]

Wait, so helmets block noise from other people?

That.. actually makes sense.

[tawdry estuary]

and is it a good idea in the beginning to loot scavs? I have the feeling they still keep coming and coming 😛

oke ty 🙂

[warm stream]

Helmet that covers ears do block sound.

Yes loot scavs but do it smart.

[celest olive]

Loot them prone

[warm stream]

Always search pockets of scavs and jackets on the map.

[celest olive]

And once you hear someone coming move away from the body

Jackets are the hidden treasures lol

[misty monolith]

So far the only notice I've gotten from people 'coming' was a gunshot, which usually means it's too late for me

[icy summit]

You can hear steps from tens of meters

with good headset.

[warm stream]

@tawdry estuary loot smart. If you kill something don't just rush in and start looting. Give it time cause more will come

[alpine trout]

Gunshots sound closer than what they are (compared to other games)

guns are LOUD

[alpine fossil]

Comtacs are also really good for your awareness

[alpine trout]

Even suppressed guns can be heard from quite a while away

[night mural]

Also a really good note on noises etc for newer players, if you're being sneaky because you think there is a player nearby be aware that things like ADSing, opening inventory etc will make noises and they can hear those

[alpine fossil]

Pretty much if you can hear it, they can too

[misty locust]

Log in fresh accoount,, whats the best thing to do

[night mural]

Yup. Even things as small as turning a laser on and off

[celest olive]

Contacs are crazy

[night mural]

That click can be heard

[alpine trout]

@misty locust scav run

[alpine fossil]

Whats a good ammo to use with an adar btw?

[night mural]

Or an offline

[warm stream]

Also guys. Use the offline option too to learn maps and spawns.

[night mural]

56a1, 55a1 or 995

[alpine fossil]

Are those available at low lvl traders?

[warm stream]

No. That's top tier ammo.

[night mural]

55a1 actually has more pen than the 56a1 now but iirc it has an accuracy penalty

[tawdry estuary]

going to start with scav, how can I get stuff if i play with scav ?:)

[night mural]

If none of those are available then imo I wouldn't use a 5.56 weapon

[celest olive]

995 at 1k a round can frig off

[warm stream]

Loot it and extrac with it.

[night mural]

Yeah 995 isnt worth at all

@tawdry estuary if you extract as a scav you can keep everything he has on him

[celest olive]

@tawdry estuary I Suggest you watch a video and do a offline raid before just going balls deep

[alpine fossil]

Look up a map with the extracts on it before you get into a raid tho

[misty monolith]

The extracting part being a real important step.
Look up a map online for the area you're heading, and when you get in as a scav double-tap o to figure out which extracts are actually available for you at that time.

[alpine fossil]

On a monitor or on your phone

[night mural]

Honestly, if you want to learn by playing just do offline

Nothing risked

You learn the maps by walking through as opposed to looking top down from a static map

Or do both

[alpine fossil]

I still have to look at the map when playing scav on customs

[warm stream]

Once you extract as a scav you have to move all your items from you scav into your stash

[night mural]

Honestly I struggle with some scav extracts still on maps I rarely scav into

[warm stream]

Also guys there are some great content creators out the on YouTube.

[alpine fossil]

Imagine the game giving an error and crashing after you extract with your scav with a fully kitted m4 and m1a

[warm stream]

I looted a m4 and tx-15 and that happened to me

[alpine fossil]

It was the worst honestly

I managed to get my first 4 man squad down and that happened

[warm stream]

OOF. I know the feeling man.

[alpine fossil]

Oh well, i did win that difficult gunfight which is way more rewarding

[bold kernel]

how to use commands?

what key?

cant find?

[warm stream]

Alrighty guys I'm going back to bed. I'll be on in a couple hours if anyone wants help let me know. I'll post in here when I'm back on

[alpine fossil]

Cya man

[warm stream]

Double tap Y I think

[bold kernel]

what keys should i sell?

ye ty

[warm stream]

Key all keys unless it's a duplicate

[bold kernel]

sELL Dupes keep rest for quests

[warm stream]

Keep*

[alpine fossil]

Why did you insure appolo cigarettes

[bold kernel]

wait what

lmao

didnt realize

[grim wagon]

nah

dnt keep them all

[alpine fossil]

Lol

[grim wagon]

unk key is useless after the quest

safe also

and "key" and mech key under it

[vale sky]

You could just put them in a key chain?

[grim wagon]

cabin keys also after the quest

[bold kernel]

i dont have anywhere i can put the keys

and i've got 727k

[grim wagon]

the rest, look at the wiki

[warm stream]

I kept mine in case my buddies need em or forget them

[grim wagon]

decide if the loot is worth visiting

go on flea and buy a keytool or docs case

[warm stream]

Keytools cost alot.

[grim wagon]

worth though

[alpine fossil]

You get one for free if you claim the christmass gift

[grim wagon]

nope

not anymore

[alpine fossil]

I did that 2 weeks ago

[grim wagon]

last years gift had one

this years doesnt

[warm stream]

DEFINITELY use the wiki guys. It's helped me out a literal shit ton.

[alpine fossil]

Idk how i managed to claim last years gift then

[warm stream]

Later pimps

[grim wagon]

you got it before it was replaced

[misty monolith]

So.. On a scale of 1-10 how bad is the TOZ-106?

[waxen forge]

Just throw it at them

[bronze ice]

Best gun EU - 2020

[waxen forge]

Seriously though. It fires and can kill people but it's bolt action. I'd use pretty much anything else.

[bronze ice]

I only used Toz for my first 30~ runs after wipe

With slugs it's alright

If you headshot

[bold kernel]

like wtf when i was scav running a scav was hiding a bush and killed me

[waxen forge]

Could have been player scav

Unless you had agro them earlier

[bold kernel]

nope

didnt shoot anyone was just looting

[alpine fossil]

Then it was a player scav

[misty monolith]

So your stats recover over time, but any idea what the time is? Say it says it'll recovers with like 8 points, is that a minute? an hour?

[waxen forge]

It's not per hour. I believe it's per minute or lets say per 5 minutes. I'm not 100% sure. However you can increase that gain rate with Hideout upgrades.

[wet spade]

are the malls in interchange

all connected?

[waxen forge]

The stores?

[wet spade]

yes

IDEA, etc

are they all in 1 compound?

[waxen forge]

There are stores on both ends Idea and Olie....from there you can get into the main mall

So yes

You can go into Olie and walk all the way to Idea while being inside

[wet spade]

Oh wow damn, there's alot of scav here

[spiral shell]

Played this about a year ago, and im starting to get back into it. Solo till lvl 5, and im wondering if anyone wants to show me the ropes!

[waxen forge]

#521628660298678283 and #news-setup so you can see all of Discord

There is a #pvp-lfg then

Can also do #sherpa-info to see the sherpa request form

[spiral shell]

Thank you for the info! I believe that I've completed the rules and setup. I appreciate it

[waxen forge]

No problem

[split vapor]

[waxen forge]

Also make sure you go to the game website (escapefromtarkov.com) and login..then go to Profile and "receive additional in-game content" to get your Christmas present

[wet spade]

can i mute the game when i'm alt tab?

any hot key

[woeful mortar]

is the Lab. key. Testing area (weap.)
worth selling? like is it gonna be needed for a quest later?

[split vapor]

Function f3

No task

[woeful mortar]

@wet spade I hit the windows button and it auto mutes

most of the time

[rocky ocean]

@wet spade i think you can change it in options under sound

[bold kernel]

i found this

[rocky ocean]

There should be a boc iirc

[bold kernel]

fence sell it

[split vapor]

No

Fence is stupid

[bold kernel]

but you need two bitcoin and 3 GP to get this from the mech

[split vapor]

He sells what players sell him

[glad apex]

that gun is not worth anywhere near that price

[split vapor]

It’s also trash

[upbeat flax]

wtf is that gamma

[glad apex]

lol

[night mural]

You could buy the bitcoin and gp for less than that

[waxen forge]

Fence sells armor that is broken for inflated prices. Rest of his stuff is totally overpriced

[glad apex]

and still make money

[waxen forge]

Best option...level traders and then you can buy items cheaper than you can buy them from flea

[glad apex]

100000%

not even that hard

[night mural]

Unless you know

[glad apex]

still waiting for the flea to recover from the twitch drops

[night mural]

There is a limited trader stock and people are scalping the item you want

[honest tusk]

Fence sells high buys low

Aka fence is a cuck

[night mural]

Then you unlock the trader, still have to buy from flea because trader sold out.

Fence was the flea market pre flea market

Buys anything no questions asked, never worth it for something any other trader will buy

[honest axle]

anyone that has done gunsmith pt2 that can help me?

[waxen forge]

What's up?

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Gunsmith_-_Part_2

[honest axle]

yeah i used that

and the mechanic wont accept my gun

[waxen forge]

Make sure you use a basic AK-74U

Not a variant

Also make sure mag is Empty

[honest axle]

i used the one he got me

[waxen forge]

Fold stock

[night mural]

Yeah empty the mag

[honest axle]

done all that

can i show u on a channel?

[waxen forge]

Yea

[honest axle]

chill chat 1

[icy summit]

Fence isn't a Cuck

He does the Cucking.

[alpine trout]

Why can't I remove the front sight from my ADAR and keep it usable?

[pseudo mural]

you need a different gas blockj

the mk12 is what most people use

[plucky burrow]

ah dang 2 new players doing duos is certainly not recommended

[pseudo mural]

the M4/ADAR front sight is actually the gas block that pushes the tube back to cycle the gun as well

[alpine trout]

ty

[pseudo mural]

This is very confusing to new players and leads to situations like the Monstrum/Prism/Reflex sight just being pointing at the gas block/front sight 😛

[alpine trout]

is my adar good?

[pseudo mural]

no

[alpine trout]

:^(

[pseudo mural]

so

[alpine trout]

any cheap upgrades?

[pseudo mural]

take off the adar wood foregrip

and the wood rear

[waxen forge]

take off the front handguard and replace it.

[pseudo mural]

you can get that recoil down for cheap

although the rear wont matter as much

[upbeat flax]

this is a "budget" and sexy adar build

[pseudo mural]

take the front off, get a better handguard, put a foregrip on it

change the muzzle device

[waxen forge]

Cheap(ish) would be the Daniel Defence RIS II...then toss a grip on it

[pseudo mural]

can the DD RISII run on the big barrel?

I can never remember because I don't run adars because 1100$ 995

[waxen forge]

The 406"....? yea

• mm

[pseudo mural]

11$ 995+everyone running T4+=nerp

[split vapor]

995 trash

[pseudo mural]

855a1 is more expensive than 762bp atm too I think

atleast in FM

and it's not like it's ever in stock on PK 😛

[bold kernel]

what sight to use for Vepr AKM

[pseudo mural]

whatever you want

[plucky burrow]

any sherpas in aus server around?

[pseudo mural]

I just the prism 2x

[bold kernel]

i tryed pso but it dosnt work

[split vapor]

Because it doesn’t have a mount

lol

[glad apex]

@plucky burrow not aus but whats up?

[pseudo mural]

are you trying to shoot distance or close?

[frosty gyro]

hey guys, I'm trying to buy a laser from skier but it keeps saying it's out of stock even though he has 575. Anyone clues here?

[pseudo mural]

cuz I tihnk you can do the bastion +1p59/1p69

[split vapor]

Get something with a dovetail mount if you want that

[bold kernel]

what mount do i need i tryed to find dovetail but i dont know what

[plucky burrow]

im tryingg to finish my first prapov quest @glad apex

[glad apex]

@spare brook probs been bought out by resellers

[pseudo mural]

shootemup you can just do a bastion +the weaver mount iirc

for the veprkm

[frosty gyro]

OK, so even the non-fence vendors can lose stock?

[pseudo mural]

yes

certain vendors are 100% always out of stock for me

[frosty gyro]

that explains it, thanks @pseudo mural

[glad apex]

@plucky burrow ahh i gotcha, if you have no luck finding help im more than happy to help you when i get in from work

[pseudo mural]

ap63, 855a1/955, ncstar lasers

[upbeat flax]

@bold kernel dovetail is the mount method on AK-family. there are many mounts that doesn't have the name in them. Cobra is a sight for it tho

you can also link search the gun

[plucky burrow]

@glad apex ah cheers mate i appreciate it

[bold kernel]

ok ty

[glad apex]

@plucky burrow hmu in a dm so i dont forget

[pseudo mural]

honestly I've just been using the mosin

one hitting everyone is fun

also with all these new players

I've wiped a bunch of 4man scav armies

[split vapor]

It’s the ammo

Not the gun

[pseudo mural]

i feel pretty bad about it

[split vapor]

Don’t

[pseudo mural]

but they shot at me first so

[split vapor]

https://streamable.com/gpd8y

[pseudo mural]

we were running to dorms

from sniper road block

and ran face first into a 6 man scav army

I thought they could only run 4 people, but apparently they made two friends

one messaged us and called me a hacker 😦

When you kill someone

[split vapor]

4 per group but you can find others dudes

[pseudo mural]

they can see your name

[pliant elk]

one question guys, do I have to bring those markers with me for the quest to mark the tanker, if yes can I loose them If I die?

[pseudo mural]

Yes you lose them

put them in your alpha

[split vapor]

But it’s the scav name

[pseudo mural]

instead of oyur car kit

not if your a PMC and they're scavs

[split vapor]

Not your name

[pseudo mural]

they will see your name, you wont see theirs

We were running 2 man PMC duos doing quest

[pliant elk]

what happens if I lose them?

[pseudo mural]

ran into a 6 man scav army, dropped all 6, got messaged by one of them to tell me I was a hacker 😄

[waxen forge]

You have to buy more

Can buy from Prapor

[pseudo mural]

Kellz, take your car kit in your bag or vest

[pliant elk]

k ty

[pseudo mural]

take the markers in your alpha

you can plant them from your alpha

also...you have a lot of ssh68s

[glad apex]

a quick point on markers, you dont actually have to be anywhere near them while it says protect, plant and run

[pseudo mural]

that too ya

I plant em and run off

they're not like the awful boat SV98/tool quest I had to do which was mean and awful

[glad apex]

PMCs can break them but it has never happened to me in 2+ years

Mate that Boat quest gave me PTSD

[pseudo mural]

same

1 minute of just sitting there

after having to kill 3 guards

[glad apex]

same with the gold chains

leaves you so exposed

[pseudo mural]

i think honestly

the boat is worse

cuz you have to take out the 3 guards at gas station/desolate beach

and make ALL KINDA NOISE

which then every thickboy on shoreline reacts to and comes running

"Someones at the gas station touching my safe?!" full speed sprint from resort to drop the person touching your loot

😛

[rocky ocean]

If you plant them does the timer only means "survive"?

[pseudo mural]

the timer means other PMC's can take it off

but nobody is that dedicated to hating you

they'll just kill you instead

[rocky ocean]

Ok

Can scavs take them off?

[pseudo mural]

no

[glad apex]

Scav players i think can

but im not 100%

[indigo apex]

Is "Matching" normal to take 5+ mins?

[pseudo mural]

but nobody is that dedicated, they'll just drop you and take your stuff instead and then you'll fail your quest

[glad apex]

you can get pretty creative with where you put them, i can guarantee you no one will be actively looking for them

@indigo apex depends on the server mate

[pseudo mural]

I put mine under the rear tailgate

[rocky ocean]

All good was just interested in it

[pseudo mural]

Enuf, as a duo it took us 18 mintues x4 times to match last night on customs

[upbeat flax]

if it doesn't match you after 5:10 then you should retry

that's our golden rule

[pseudo mural]

not sure that's true anymore

[upbeat flax]

it's been like that for us

[pseudo mural]

with the massive influx, restarting the que i just sat in que for another 12-14 minutes

[rocky ocean]

Same for me

[brave sinew]

Where can i find map IG ? to have them to the begining of raid

[pseudo mural]

if I just stay in I get matched eventually

[rocky ocean]

I retry after 3 mins

[pseudo mural]

Hysterio they dont matter

[upbeat flax]

we've been getting matched either at 5 ish or below

[pseudo mural]

therapist has them but dont buy them

last night we didn't get matched before 12 minutes

[glad apex]

@brave sinew https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Escape_from_Tarkov_Wiki

[mystic tinsel]

can i put 2x or 2.5x scope on ak? and if yes, what parts do i need?

[glad apex]

maps used to let PMC's pick their spawn point, you can probs tell why they removed that

[pseudo mural]

factory was 11 minute wait on average

[waxen forge]

Bastion dust cover will work

[rocky ocean]

@mystic tinsel which lvl are you?

[waxen forge]

!wiki bastion

[brave sinew]

@pseudo mural i use wiki maps already, but for the rpg side id prefered to have them ig

[broken quail]

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

AKademia Bastion dust cover for AK

The AKademia Bastion dust cover for AK (Bastion) is a dust cover in Escape from Tarkov.

[pseudo mural]

hysterio therapist sells them

[mystic tinsel]

@rocky ocean 6

[glad apex]

@brave sinew they dont work like maps mate

[rocky ocean]

You can rightclick ak and use linked search to see what fits

[brave sinew]

@glad apex oh ! zob :/ id continue like now so !

[bronze ice]

Bastion is expensive tho, use tula if possible

[rocky ocean]

You can use it for the ak / mounts and scope

[pseudo mural]

bastion is fairly cheap tho?

[upbeat flax]

bastion? expensive?

[mystic tinsel]

i tried tt01 and pk 06 but i need scope on customs

[glad apex]

@brave sinew they are an old item that let people pick spawns, it was a horrific item so they removed its purpose but kept the item

[bronze ice]

8k without trader levels

[waxen forge]

If you are looking for a zoom optic I'm not 100% sure it will fit on the tactica tula rearsight adapter.

[upbeat flax]

guys use tacticala Tula 10000!!!!1!

[waxen forge]

That works for red dots

[pseudo mural]

the TT won't fit a 2x

[glad apex]

what about the dogleg?

[pseudo mural]

you have to use either a bastion, or on an AK74N/M/Whatever you can use a cobra mount

[upbeat flax]

all AK dustcovers with raids will fit all scopes in the game

rails

[brave sinew]

Now that i begin to understand game mechnanic and that ive explore customs a bit, is that time to try scav faction ?

[mystic tinsel]

alright i'll look at bastion and a 2x or 2.5

[waxen forge]

Try scav faction?

[glad apex]

@brave sinew you should be using your scav to learn the maps

[waxen forge]

Or to get loot and make $

[mystic tinsel]

man i hate customs

[rocky ocean]

Should be otherway around scav first than pmc

[pseudo mural]

i am level 30 and hate customs too

[glad apex]

@brave sinew they spawn with set loot, if you die, no worries, if you live then awesome free loot!

[brave sinew]

try an online raid with scav

[upbeat flax]

Customs is fucking aids

[mystic tinsel]

but quests are on custom

so ...

[rocky ocean]

@upbeat flax why so?

[brave sinew]

I do only offline raid for now

[pseudo mural]

legitimately, customs is a bad map with bad design that needs fixed

[upbeat flax]

that

[glad apex]

@pseudo mural they need a back route from elbow to old gas

[indigo apex]

Well, I got in after 7mins then it said anti chest detection failed :'(

[pseudo mural]

they need a lot of things

[brave sinew]

wich other map should i visit to begin ?

[pseudo mural]

like not having 8 different chokepoints on one single map

[waxen forge]

Interchange

[glad apex]

@brave sinew interchange

[upbeat flax]

Interchange or outskirts of shoreline

[pseudo mural]

one if which is often guarded by scavboss

[brave sinew]

ill try this one so ! thanks

[bold kernel]

i have got all these stuff what do i do with these do i sell it or?

[pseudo mural]

if your a good player on customs

you can just camp

and destroy everyone

[upbeat flax]

@bold kernel look at the Hideout / quest needed items page on their respective Wiki pages

Reshade the Cumstains boss

[pseudo mural]

If you sit at crossroads in the bushes

you can drop half the map easily

[brave sinew]

@pseudo mural i am not, just 3 hours of game, i just want to test online to be confront with real player

[upbeat flax]

scavs are only online

[pseudo mural]

real players are going to drop you 😦

[glad apex]

@bold kernel keep the bolts and screws and the purple filter, sell the rest to therapist

[upbeat flax]

for your knowledge

[pseudo mural]

keep the white bulb

[rocky ocean]

You can always play scav nothing to lose

[pseudo mural]

you only need 5/5/2 now

[bold kernel]

and these?

[pseudo mural]

for tree right?

ii need to farm that today

keep all that dynna

[glad apex]

^

[rocky ocean]

You need screws

[brave sinew]

@pseudo mural I know that, but avoid dying all time= avoid progress

[rocky ocean]

For hideout

[pseudo mural]

you need that for HO

Hysterio I know

just..tamper your expectations

[rocky ocean]

The first hideout extension

[pseudo mural]

your gonna get shot from places you have no idea where your from

[glad apex]

@brave sinew you will only learn when you loose gear

[pseudo mural]

for the first 20-30 raids

[upbeat flax]

and scavs don't go some places

[pseudo mural]

you are gonna get shot in the face without knowing where you got shot from

that's the tarkov experience

[brave sinew]

Slow, your fine, thx. I play on a 13" mac, ill need a biger screen for pvp... D'you know if there is an issue with sound direction ?

[upbeat flax]

uhh

not really

but wear active headsets

(Comtacs, Sordins, sports)

[pseudo mural]

sound detection is 2 channel

[brave sinew]

I play trought shadow (cloud) and sometimes sounds looks like they come from multidirectional

[pseudo mural]

vertical channel doesn't exist

7.1 doesn't exist

[glad apex]

only use active headsets if you plan on always using them

[pseudo mural]

5.1 doesn't exist

you can use $5 knockoff earbuds

[upbeat flax]

shadowcloud?

[pseudo mural]

and do the same as someone with $500 iems

[upbeat flax]

how bad is the delay on shadowcloud

[brave sinew]

@upbeat flax i'm connecting my mac to a data center wich provide me a windows computer! Limitation is my connexion (30mb of video flux) and not mac capacity

[eager solstice]

what do you mean 7.1 doesnt exist?

[upbeat flax]

it just doesn't help

is the point

[eager solstice]

ah

[pseudo mural]

it doesn't exist, like

there are only two channels for audio that tarkov outputs

[upbeat flax]

using any sort of cloud game service for tarkov is a mistake

[brave sinew]

dont understand your question i think

[upbeat flax]

you need lightning fast reactions for tarkov

[pseudo mural]

there are only two channels of audio for tarkov

not 5, not 7

[upbeat flax]

2

[brave sinew]

It's not that bad, 30ms of delay, juste like my vdsl connexion

[pseudo mural]

30ms+input lag

[upbeat flax]

yikes...

[pseudo mural]

playing on shadowplay you should just play offline

[upbeat flax]

yeah.

shadowplay is not shadowcloud

it's actually "shadow" or something

[pseudo mural]

shadowcloud, whatever

streaming game service

as long as you never run into another player you maybe fine

[brave sinew]

I play to another game (apex) at good level trought shadow, sometimes there is delay, but not that bad

[upbeat flax]

mhm. cloud game service streaming thingymajig

what do you mean by "at good level"

[pseudo mural]

Apex doesn't have bots with 250m detection ranges

or players who can drop you with one shot

[upbeat flax]

and isn't always tryhards

[eager solstice]

oh shit i just learned there is a 40mm grenade launcher

[upbeat flax]

there is but not really

[brave sinew]

I gonna stop shadow the day ill have optics and a good computer

[pseudo mural]

I play this game with 80fps 1440p+1gb/s internet connection

[eager solstice]

oh ok good

[pseudo mural]

it's still not enough 😛

[humble thorn]

do Items in my stash count as "in raid" items for future quests i havent done yet? or do i need to find them again

[eager solstice]

i dont wanna get blown up, getting one shot in enough thank you

[upbeat flax]

there is a mounted grenade launcher

3 of them

with a very narrrow angle

@humble thorn checkmark in the bottom right

if it's there, it's found in raid

[brave sinew]

@pseudo mural ill be easy to kill so, not a problem because with the mac i cant even play !

[humble thorn]

ty

[upbeat flax]

tho

if you're just going to keep getting killed

you can't really improve

and i don't think it'll be fun

even if you only encounter a scav, your shots can attract players

[brave sinew]

But its my only way to play, so ill do, even if its frustrating ! It may daily game routine since living in far campain

[pseudo mural]

that's fine goodluck!

[upbeat flax]

i suppose people are into whatever they're into

i personally dissagree with what you're doing there

[pseudo mural]

Another exfil camper

in the past month and a half I've been exfil camped once

the past 4 days I've died to an exfil camper 11 times

[upbeat flax]

0 here

[pseudo mural]

done IC at all?

[upbeat flax]

the 2nd most ran map for me

[pseudo mural]

it's never happened to me on customs

but 11 times on IC

[upbeat flax]

either i come out super quick

or super late

[pseudo mural]

I came out at 8 minutes left

[upbeat flax]

play like you expect somebody there

[pseudo mural]

and got dropped bny a camper sitting ontop of the tent

I did

[upbeat flax]

weird

i always preaim the tent side

[pseudo mural]

I did

he shot me from 250+m

lol

ain't much you can do at that point

[waxen forge]

Yea I don't really have too much of a problem with exfil on IC

[pseudo mural]

I never have before

just the past 2-3 days

but I've also never seen people camping quest objectives

and that's happening constantly

[small perch]

good morning folks !

hello there @waxen forge

[pseudo mural]

I've killed multiple lvl 40+ folks sitting in the stairwell at the bronze pocketwatch quest

[waxen forge]

Morning @small perch

[pseudo mural]

I also got exfil camped on customs in the weirdest way the other day

[small perch]

i've been playing the past few days, and i didnt see any extract camper or quest campers mroe than usual? maybe its just bad luck for you?

[pseudo mural]

I was coming to railroad exfil

I got to the exfil

two dudes jumped out of the trian and naded exfil

[bold kernel]

Hi , pls TAG me when you reply me !
I have the Red Lab keycard, do I need anything else to loot Lab ? like aany other keycards etc ?

[pseudo mural]

...

[small perch]

green and black @bold kernel

ledx can spawn in green

black is not as important, but its not that expensive either

[bold kernel]

why green and black ?

[pseudo mural]

two raids later, I threw a nade in the train as I ran by it

[bold kernel]

when I have RED ?

@small perch why green and black ?

[pseudo mural]

and as I exfil'd(at zb1011)

i had two kills

???s usec

had to be the same guys that camped me

[upbeat flax]

or just sell the red keycard

[pseudo mural]

pretty innovating way to exfil camp I think

[upbeat flax]

absolute aids map and aids spot

[small perch]

well your question was : do i need anything else to loot labs... so yes red is freaking excellent, but what do you do if its already been looted ? @bold kernel

[bold kernel]

oh ok

[pseudo mural]

if you have the red keycard, just sell it

[bold kernel]

I am not selling it

[upbeat flax]

are you good at PVP?

[pseudo mural]

how long have you been playing?

[bold kernel]

I need it to LOOT fuc... RED LAB

[pseudo mural]

the best loot in lab is on the raiders

which doesn't come from the red keycard

[icy summit]

it comes from

[upbeat flax]

you realise the key is used legit in the most common spot to hang around at?

[icy summit]

DEATH!

[pseudo mural]

Like I said, how long have you been playing?

Lol Nyarl

one of the newer streamers I was watching had 200k cash and nothing in his stash, got a red keycard

refused to sell it, went into labs, died in 20 seconds

[upbeat flax]

kekw

smartest man alive

[icy summit]

kekekekeke

[pseudo mural]

20 seconds later he was like "Ya maybe I should sell it"

well derp ya bud

[bold kernel]

I am keeping RED LAB KEYCARD to farm it over and over and will make much more than 18 million

if it makes sense ?

[upbeat flax]

this guy

this guy

[pseudo mural]

okay, so you've been playing for less than two weeks than

[icy summit]

this guy

xD

[pseudo mural]

goodluck farming labs bro

[upbeat flax]

goodluck bb

[bold kernel]

why whats wrong in LABS ?

[upbeat flax]

BRUH

WE TOLD YOU

[pseudo mural]

Dude

[bold kernel]

what happen there

[upbeat flax]

æ

[pseudo mural]

There are raiders

[upbeat flax]

DUDE

RAIDERS, FULLY GEARED PEOPLE

[pseudo mural]

and the sweatiest of pvp

[upbeat flax]

THAT

[bold kernel]

I will kill them

[novel quartz]

When i look around in game, it stutters and my mouse for some reason is flashing on the screen, as if my mouse wants to leave the game.

Anyone know what the reason of this could be?

[pseudo mural]

youa re not going to survive

no, you won't

I'm lvl 30, the 4 times I've done labs

I've died in <2 minutes

[bold kernel]

I will use Australian servers

[pseudo mural]

You will still get fucking toasted by raiders

[upbeat flax]

because that will help

[bold kernel]

where server is empty

[warped epoch]

@novel quartz press alt+enter twice

[pseudo mural]

dude, your not listening

do whatver you want

[upbeat flax]

with 140000 concurrent players

[pseudo mural]

good luck

[novel quartz]

I tried that @warped epoch

Didn't heøp for shit

Help*

[upbeat flax]

get your fucking ego out of your head and come back when you lose all your money

[pseudo mural]

People who've played the game much longer than you, vs confidence that you're gonna go into labs and wreck them

[upbeat flax]

:)

[pseudo mural]

lol

[warped epoch]

restart your game maybee

[bold kernel]

i can always sell card

[pseudo mural]

does red keycard even get you in?

[bold kernel]

so whats wrong in trying ? Aye ???

[pseudo mural]

i thought it was just for the room

[upbeat flax]

uhh

losing money

[pseudo mural]

you can't insure your items

[upbeat flax]

which you will

[pseudo mural]

in labs

[upbeat flax]

more than you gain

[bold kernel]

why scaring me ? because you have no red lab card ??

[pseudo mural]

LOL

[upbeat flax]

okay

this guy is actually trolling

[pseudo mural]

I have en ough to buy a red labs card

[novel quartz]

@warped epoch i will see if the restart helped, as i rage quit after 3 games with this "bug"

[pseudo mural]

I don't because it's pointless

the raiders have better loot

just like kiba keys

[bold kernel]

@pseudo mural but it and then sell it ?

[pseudo mural]

What?

[upbeat flax]

@bold kernel

[pseudo mural]

listen I don't take advice from brainslugs man

[upbeat flax]

i don't use this word often

[pseudo mural]

anyways

[upbeat flax]

but legit

[pseudo mural]

go do labs

[upbeat flax]

stop being retarded

[icy summit]

Anyway

[pseudo mural]

with your bad self

[icy summit]

to win in Labs

[bold kernel]

I will

[pseudo mural]

I can't even survive labs offline 😄

[bold kernel]

u want free Lab access with me ?

[upbeat flax]

?????????

??????????????

[bold kernel]

u know I got RED LAB CARD

[upbeat flax]

???????????????????

[icy summit]

you have to make sure to have your weapons are blessed by Khorne!

[pseudo mural]

i don't even think red keycard gets you in iirc right?

it's just for the red area

[upbeat flax]

it doesn't

it's just to access arsenal

[bold kernel]

u will pay 150k for access

[pseudo mural]

so you'd need to spend 150-200k

[upbeat flax]

and get nothing out

good deal

[icy summit]

gud deal

[bold kernel]

why nothing out ?

we will take out

all the stuff

run after run

[pseudo mural]

lol

Dude I forgot to insure my baller AKM earlier

[upbeat flax]

because either there won't be anything

[pseudo mural]

i feel so dumb

[icy summit]

I want to watch.

[upbeat flax]

or you'll take everything worth anything

[pseudo mural]

I miss my AKM

[bold kernel]
