You get a 2 doc cases from quests

bold kernel
#

how much are ammo and mg boxes?

amber saffron
#

100k ammo

dense zenith
#

I wouldn't prioritize purchasing those

bold kernel
#

lvl 2 lavatory can craft mag cases

amber saffron
#

300k mag

bold kernel
#

i have ammo like everywhere

amber saffron
#

give or take

#

ye i have ammo and mag boxes

#

super useful

subtle nimbus
#

thats why they are amazing

#

and cheap

for what they do

amber saffron
#

all cases are useful

ok gonna go on flea now

#

So what's the fastest way to level up strength? I need it for level 3 vents, and currently, at level 25, I'm level 1 strength with 5.3/20 toward level 2

what is para cord for?

what are hand drills for?

The wiki knows

thanks @waxen forge

np

autumn rivet
#

@pastel comet I filled an MBSS with shotgun shells, got over weight and ran around shoreline for a solid 40 minutes before extract and got a solid 0.3 progression. is there anything faster or do I just have to grind for 100 hours to level it?

pastel comet
#

I

amber saffron
#

throw nades

#

not sure tbh

#

just play

pastel comet
#

yeah what he said

#

I think the fastest way is just throwing them, so get a bag full of nades and just chuck em

autumn rivet
#

aight, time to bankrupt myself lmao

pastel comet
#

factual

dense zenith
#

It's .2 str for first thrown grenade in a raid, and .1 for every subsequent

#

I believe

quasi hawk
#

You could whack someone with your knife

autumn rivet
#

1.12 Million rubles to reach level 2 😐 holy hell.

quasi hawk
#

0.1 xp per whack if I recall correctly.

waxen forge
#

It's not that bad

#

Should be using traders

#

Don'

#

Don't overuse flea

#

Therapist>Skier>mechanic to sell most things

#

Can check flea price but if trader is close sell to them especially while leveling them

amber saffron
#

ive spent 11m with therapist

waxen forge
#

Break weapon into parts and sell to Skier then rest to Mechanic

#

Basic weapons are a waste of time to sell on flea

amber saffron
#

i always try to buy everything from traders

autumn rivet
#

oh, I've spent way over what I need with traders. at this point I use fleamarket to level that up.

amber saffron
#

and sell everything to them

#

only if i get more than 40-50% money i will use the flea

trail ermine
#

hey pink if that works you must let us know

autumn rivet
#

Will do, Cuddly. I'm gonna go in with a dozen nades, see what it does, and then see if I can get within 600 meters of a scav without getting laser beamed in the face

#

see if that chopping works

quasi hawk
#

You could team up with someone with a grizzly medkit, just heal while getting whacked.

#

That's the cheesiest way as far as I know.

trim herald
#

You'll bankrupt yourself before you get any significant str gain from nades

trail ermine
#

lol

bold kernel
#

I dont understand how Scavs have the pinpoint fuckin accuracy with the weapons they use

tribal cove
#

Can I do the Introduction task as a scav?

trim herald
#

I think you need to spend somewhere around 67bn to get str to 51 with nades

#

No

tribal cove
#

Oke

untold creek
#

Can anyone on my in-game friends list invite me to their server? Or do we need to be in the same region?

trail ermine
#

i love how i as on reserves in the giant dome antenna and got sniped by a scav 600-700 meters out

trim herald
#

Best way of levelling str is just going into a raid overweight, buy some buckshot and stick in your bag while you play normally, you'll get the levels quick enough

uneven sleet
#

anyone feel like helpin my finish my "Deubt" task? only need 3 more sacv kills.

quasi hawk
#

It'll take 270-300 hours of walking overweight.

#

That's going to take a bit too long.

trim herald
#

To hit 51, but you don't need 51 do you?

autumn rivet
#

@trim herald I did that yesterday. 40 minutes in shoreline doing nothing but running around the fence got me 0.3 progression

fierce tangle
#

what would be better for factory, aks-74u or ak-74N?

waxen forge
#

Buy 20 flashes.....go to interchange or shoreline. As soon as you spawn in throw them all

trim herald
#

Running?

autumn rivet
#

ye

trim herald
#

Running gives 0 str xp

waxen forge
#

Save up some $ and do it again later

autumn rivet
#

...

#

whelp

trim herald
#

Walking while overweight gives str xp 😄

bought the wrong ones didnt yee

Hi anyone looking to help a beginner get his first extraction?

autumn rivet

brb, gonna tongue fuck my shotgun barrel real quick

trim herald

Christ also does not give str xp

trail ermine

XD

what did you buy pink

waxen forge
#

Blue name means it worked

#

If it doesn't work first time uncheck the rules box and then recheck it

autumn rivet
#

I'm still matching with a dozen grenades RN, cuddly. gonna try that, then see if I can whack those scavs.

quasi hawk
#

You can whack someone you're grouping up with, right?

trail ermine
#

that sounds so fun tho i might do just to listen to the explosions

trim herald

So iirc, 12 nades should get you around .3 or so sp

They have nerfed some of the cheesing methods such as teaming and hitting your teammate while he heals

quasi hawk

Oh.

#

Well, early-bird bonus, eh?

waxen forge

The did try to reduce some of the ability to cheese strength and stuff as per #❌〡patch-notes

Honestly, just buy some buckshot and do your tasks as normal

Whenever you walk you'll get str xp

@autumn rivet they nerfed powerleveling

amber saffron
#

the heck is powerleveling?

quasi hawk
#

The most efficient way to level something.

rich cloak

When you do a certain thing that levels a skill over and over it stops giving exp

trail ermine
#

is there a page or something that gives stats for armour against certain weapon ammo types

waxen forge
#

While leveling skills, the character will now have "exhaustion” of skill per raid, this means that skill will be leveled more slowly during the raid after every repeat. If you do not level a certain skill for a while (a few minutes), the character will recover and will be able to level this skill with normal speed again. This change is directed against skills abuse (targeted and consecutive leveling of the same skill)
Skills now have a maximum level that can not be overcome even with stimulants-60 #❌〡patch-notes

i got one shot through a helmet with visor down

trim herald
#

Any good ammo will do that

waxen forge
#

Yea

bold kernel
#

!maps

trail ermine
#

oh dope

waxen forge
#

Helmets are a money pit

rich cloak
#

@trail ermine what were you wearing?

waxen forge
#

You will die more times wearing a good/great helmet than it will save you

mighty ore
#

Helmets will save you against scavs tho

waxen forge
#

Yes it will save you but you will die more times than it saves you

mighty ore
#

Except mosin scavs

trail ermine
#

idk what it was called, i know it had a visor you can flip up/down

rich cloak
#

And there is the occasional ricochet

waxen forge
#

Plus if it was motorcycle or fireman helmet then it's trash and you should throw it on the ground

dense zenith
#

That is fair to say helmets are money sinks, but I wouldn't just not use one either

autumn rivet
#

So I'm dead already... but the first nade indeed did 0.2 progression. every one after that was 0.1. I killed 2 scavs getting 3 total hits in with a hatchet, got me another 0.3 total there.

mighty ore
#

Yeah, most visors are worthless

rich cloak
#

Take that system pepeLaugh pepeLaugh

trail ermine
#

lol

autumn rivet
#

sure enough, I think running factory with a hatchet since I don't have anyone to let me whack them might be the easiest

opaque light
#

Just got Tarkov and went on my first raid and honestly felt clueless, anyone trying to run me through a customs raid by a chance?

trail ermine
#

how do you even get that close

modern hearth
#

Right I'm relatively new to the game been playing a couple days, is there anyone willing to guide me through tarkov, be it through messages or in game, I understand what I need to do, just some help would he appreciated haha

waxen forge
#

However dying with no weapon will reduce how much health you return to stash with

autumn rivet
#

factory... I used the flashes to flash the scavs and then whacked them lol

trail ermine
#

oh lol

#

that sounds so toxic

waxen forge
mighty ore
#

But a good visor and armour set paired with cover will do you real well against scavs, against a geared player armor and helmet will do basically nothing because they'll hose you down with armor piercing rounds

trail ermine

I rarely bother with anything more than the 6B helmet

anyone feel like helping my finish my "Deubt" task? only need 3 more sacv kills

mighty ore
#

That's the one on customs yeah?

uneven sleet
#

yeah

mighty ore
#

If so just do night raids and camp in storage

#

The 44 storage container let's you camp scavs from inside it, they'll just walk past and you get free shots

#

As bits got a jacket so you can get keys to put in your container if you're lucky, might even profit off the raid even if you lose your gun

#

whats the best place to go to look forward upgrading base?

autumn rivet

Interchange has the tech and hardware items

young pollen

ok everything seems to be working now. @waxen forge I apologize for not reading the rules right away

if i go into labs offline will it consume a keycard and can i die and if so do i lose loot

Is it worth shpressing an m700? If so what is the cheapest way to do it?

(For woods)

trim herald

Wave is cheapest

You need one in your inventory to access it, but it will not consume it.

amber saffron

servers dying yet again? 😩

tribal cove
#

Daniel defence?

trim herald
#

@supple terrace You'll need 1 for a later quest, if you sell though it's 250k to Therapist

supple terrace

should I keep it in your opinion or not?

trim herald

Do you have plenty of cash and space in your stash?

supple terrace

I got like 300k

I'd rather a headset than a helmet

Absolutely ^

Gssh headset is shit tho so don’t use it @trail ermine

amber saffron

Nah, all headsets are preference

There isn't one that's better than the rest

Correct

amber saffron

i'd go for headset + helmet or only headset

Some say there may be a bit of a distance factor with some but in my experience it boils down to if you like more bass or less

You could google some maps, and try offline mode to learn the layout.

hopefully you don't get killed lol

amber saffron

yeah

in with just a pistol so it should not really matter if i die

but i hope not

I mean a suppressor just SUPPRESSES the sound, it doesn't remove it

Although suppressors aren't working properly in this game yet

@fierce tangle if you go solo night would probably be better

to sneak in and out

but the mission is hard so it would be easier to go to lfg channel and do it in a full squad

if you die you have to go back to customs ect

gotcha, thanks

oh shit

yea

thats why you should do it in a group

theres a question mark it means the extraction is not guaranteed

Also, that isn't where the extract is. Not sure if you're just hiding to show the boat in picture but

trail ermine

@golden badge also that supressor killed 6 people i saw thr aftermath

golden badge

That's what she said

Do i have to accept quests or do i automatically have them active

You need to manually accept them

Therapist and Prapor have first tasks

Can i take both at the same time? Or one at a time

#

What all can you expect of Sherpas when you request one?

trim herald
#

Quests are the quickest way to level honestly

waxen forge
#

When you confirm the raid you will get a kit in messenger to use

#

Most will answer questions in a voice room

#

I take people on a scav run to show them how to make money on Interchange

#

Then a PMC run wherever they want.

solemn river
#

Ive never run interchange before

trim herald
#

Labs?

solemn river
#

I basically only run factory because its the safest for me and i know all the extracts

trim herald
#

Woah

#

Madlad

waxen forge
#

I usually don't run them on labs. More on the standard maps that have purpose for tasks and such.

solemn river
#

I just run office and grab filing and safe kill pmcs if i have to and then run out

#

Ive only died factory once on scav cause i mistook a player scav as a bot

#

I just cant memorize customs extracts

trim herald
#

Shoreline or Interchange are way better for loot

#

And generally safer

solemn river
#

I thought they were less safe

waxen forge
#

No

#

You have room to move around

#

Time to loot

solemn river
#

Cause everyone runs them and everyones geared head to toe

waxen forge
#

Actual loot spawns on the map

bold kernel
#

I can safely say after 26 hours of gametime, I'm gonna have to consider some Sherpa help.

solemn river
#

I think i need someone to walk me through interchange holding my hand

bold kernel
#

It's a strange thing, feeling like you are potentially too bad to play a game.

trim herald
#

Shoreline for example has only 1 high value loot zone, so everyone geared will go there. While if you're scavving you'll go for different loot and have a MASSIVE map basically to yourself

solemn river
#

Cause i wont be able to figure out loot locations and extracts with iut panicking

trim herald
#

Through like 30+ scav runs I've never seen a single PMC or player scav

solemn river
#

Without*

dire stirrup
#

@bold kernel Its made to make you feel that way

trim herald
#

Interchange won't take as long, and has the potential of better loot, but you're more likely to run into players or playerscavs

solemn river
#

Usually i get into a map i dont know (anything that isnt factory) and just start panicking cause i know im fucked not knowing where to go

Tarkov is not your typical game

:/ Yeah is there anything which is really just in general? I really dont know if sugar is worth more than screwdriver etc. and I want to do stash runs :/

waxen forge
#

Ammo type is vital

#

In that example sugar is worth more

#

However other than that it's a matter of experience.

#

Most PvP players bring at least class 4 armor, which negates almost everything.

The logistics I love. All of it. Gunplay and map knowledge is killing me.

Task items and Hideout items are going to be best option

Honestly the easiest way to learn is to make mistakes and bring out some garbage that doesn't sell for anything 😄

bold kernel
#

there should be spreadsheet like this (quest items & hideout items) so that I can just hit CTRL + F and not check everything.

#

Things on those lists will generally be worth $

You'll never make that mistake again 😄

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.
All the data displayed below is the product of NoFoodAfterMidnight. This page is aimed at spreading the knowledge he uncovered, and making it easy to understand for new players.

trim herald
#

So you'd then have to enter all barter items

bold kernel
#

the second one is spreadsheet which is good

trim herald
#

Like Propane for example, the value it has on flea is directly correlated to the price of Red Rebel picks

#

And Paracord to sicc cases

#

For example

bold kernel
#

and what should I level up in hideout first as a beginner?

trim herald
#

All of it evenly honestly

#

Most of it is blocked by the levels on other stuff

waxen forge
#

First

#

Workbench

trim herald
#

^

waxen forge
#

So you can then go examine all weapons and weapon parts of flea. Then you can Right click on a weapon and Edit Preset

bold kernel
#

done

trail ermine
#

lol

waxen forge
#

If you have parts examined Edit Preset will let you mod a weapon easily with all parts that will fit on it (as long as you have them examined) even if you do not have the parts in your stash.

what do you really get for doing optional part of quests

Labs CAN make you rich, but most maps can

amber saffron

whats a decent replacement for labs then?

trim herald

Reserve, Interchange, Shoreline

You just got to remember, you will have to invest 180k in order to potentally get more if you survive.

amber saffron

i know interchange, should i learn shoreline next or reserve?

dire stirrup

I'd go for shoreline, as reserve extract isnt the easiest

trim herald

Shoreline is really simple

Reserve you sort of want the RR pick

How the heck are you supposed to level up Strength? I am level 30 and I have str 1, I need 3 for the hideout! 😄

are there any lowtech players?
i have i5 7500 8GB RAM and gtx1050 (2gbs), was wondering if i could run EFT smoothly (even on low specs)

amber saffron
#

you can kill people up to class 4 armour

trim herald
#

Maybe not your first raid, but you will inevitably die due to it

foggy latch
#

i thought before .12 BP was the ammo t ogo like an m995 equal

trim herald
#

No no

#

BP has always been subpar

#

Unless it's for 7.62x39, then it's great

amber saffron
#

BS>BT>BP

#

dont go any below than BP

trim herald
#

But 7.62x39 does not have a BT, so I'm assuming you're looking at 5.45

#

To put it like this

#

Imagine you run into some guy who's got hella gear. Like 1 mil+ worth

#

You get the jump on him

#

Would you rather kill him

#

Or hit him 20 times and then die

#

That's the difference between BS and BP

amber saffron
#

ofc for that stuff you will use BS

#

but when you're on a budget and just doing simple runs

#

then BP does fine

trim herald
#

Then don't use an AK for budget runs

#

Use a VEPR

#

You're putting yourself at a massive disadvantage by not using BS

Okay so

If I recall correctly

Bs is better than Bt on 5.45x39

#

And bt is better than bp

Bp is better than ps

And ps is better than T

#

And it goes down from there right?

I'd keep it, and run some cache runs or Interchange to get some cash

Leveling traders should always be a goal. Then you can buy from them and not pay inflated flea price. Remember people are selling on flea to make a profit.

Well now atleast
