how can i improve my aim? seems I can one shot scavs fine but players they always one shot me before I can get a bullet off, do i just need to level up more?
@fiery fractal starts playing more maps and try to change your playstyle a bit
@frank wigeon practice
I AM using the map on the wiki, there no "Bus station" @trim herald
its the HK MP5 that i need for gunsmith 3 right?
i feel like this aint the right gun

@bold kernel
Ha
No
No
Cottages may be
bus stop is empty all the time
But nothing I drew would be pushed
rarely see people there
And you're not going to bus stop
You're going next to it, avoiding the scavs by pushing down below it
doesn't he have to kill scavs?
I mean he could kill the ones at bus stop too
Sure
But it's more risk
I personally wouldn't, but it should be safe enough
2 or 3 spawn there, just pop them real quick and go to the next
Ok with that I have a question. If youโve ever played rainbow six, is the playstyle more like playing anchor on defense?
And @bold kernel i recommend doing it at night
How do I kill the scav inside power plant tho? I rarely see him, he's always behind a wall, I have to get there to kill it
@fiery fractal depends a lot
also, a lot of people have certain playstyles
some people play like ash
So there are people who just rush huh
If you can't get to him easily, then leave him Kadrek
using a combination of cover, nades and well placed fire
Better than dying for him
^ solid advice
I like to play more defensive but I always feel awkward playing that way. I feel like aggression is my true way but I get anxiety
Dont have gesr fear if thats what you mean
you're right I die so much because of my own greed
this time a dude with an sks shot me from the hill beside power
If anyone needs help just let me know. I'm just chilling doing homework rn
Yeah, same
like text help or sherpa stuff
Where would you sell bitcoins
on the dark web
Text stuff mostly. I filled a sherpa application and havent heard back yet but I'm down to help whoever needs it
haha ha.
@karmic meadow Therapist will pay the most for traders on tech gear and treasure items
Therapist
That's what I thought thanks y'all
what map do you recommend to learn first?
I would learn customs because of the quests needed there
If I wasnโt at work Iโd take you guys up on that offer
it doesnt hurt to learn it and all beginning quests start at customs mostly
Thanks
np @pale vine
does zsh helmet have built in headset?
anyone up for duos with a new player?
mechanic just took my AKM and didn't give me anything
was it for a quest? like gunsmith @bold kernel
Restart
none of them do
you talking to me mr sherpa
ye
sometime the rewards dont come in immediately it could be a server thing. You should get your items at some point @bold kernel sometimes for me its the next time i log in
and an addition of prox voip after thjat
i dont have the secondary links for the spreadsheet though, and there a ton of people on it rn
highest penetration value is the igolnik @limpid grove but not always the best. if people have low tier armor it can actually over pen and not deal as much because of the lower flesh damage
Can someone tell me where is that key for truck to get pocket watch for quest? I know that its somewhere in dorms but i couldnt find it.
it is good for heavily geared enemies @limpid grove
@pale vine in room 205 in the dorms there is a blue and a yellow jacket on the wall
it is in the yellow jacket @pale vine
ok thanks again @floral badger
@trim herald should i
yup! @pale vine
sure
hey @floral badger wanna run interchange to help me get a in raid gas analyzer ? cause uh my luck is about 0
i have an M4 anyway
hmm is 13 million enough to upgrade everything u need for the BTC farm
like for everything
Depends on what "everything you need" is
whats the best map for getting better at fighting players? factory?
You need stash upgrades?
you think these servers and ping ranges are ok?
lets say new charecter
Should be fine Clarkey
no just the stuff i need for the btc farm
sweet
Anyone wanna take me through a run and coach me ?
it really depends on the flea market costs of gpus. When i made mine last month it was closer to 20 mil @bold kernel
Do it and find out ๐
well i dont wanna spend 13 mil and not garuntee having a BTC farm
idek if its an investment i should concider.
btw lvl 1 farm not 3
@haughty mica sorry dude i would but im actually doing homework rn. Do you know where to look when you go? like the tech stores ๐
@floral badger yeah i know all the spawns i just keep getting unlucky and dont find any or get shot 200m away whilst leaving with one
oh dang @haughty mica XD id go in with an empty alpha container and put them all in there so you dont have to worry as much.
Keep if you want to snipe, sell if you don't
sorry that I cant help much rn. normally id be down
Sell to trader though
yeah i may do that and its no biggie @floral badger
@trim herald ty Sir
hm.. im thinking i shouldnt do it... but its consistent roubles coming in thats the thing
any other beginners here looking to group up or experienced guys to help me learn? I'm down for whatever map/group size
you have to consider the value of the bitcoin farm for yourself. If youre finding lots of bitcoins and fuel its pretty good but it takes a lot of time and consistent fuel money to make back the amount of rubles it will cost. For me id rather just sell all the gpus and make 13 million but thats just me @bold kernel
anyone know if key durabilty goes down in ofline mode?
not finding bitcoins i mean finding lots of gpus in raid @bold kernel
The BTC farm is a dumb gimmick imo
Just sell the GPUs
but im not patient enough
so im not sure
not only the gpus is it its also the money i need to spend on shit to get the btc farm
drum mag silenced ak scav, new fav build
theyre gonna keep working on the hideout and adding / reworking things. i think its a cool concept but unless youre a streamer or play all week full time it doesnt seem to be practical
so ima just dismiss the idea
I really like the btc farm
Means I can get a bunch of cases without feeling like I'm spending cash on them ๐
cases?
^ true XD
Kiba overrated
dude the kiba key hit the floor this wipe XD
its so cheap now
6+ mil stash value
Hi everyone, just started the game and was looking for some help with my first few runs is anyone can help
i just dont really wanna get to the btc farm and then be almost broke cause all the upgrades leading up to the btc farm then not being able to afford the fuel
@pure sorrel #521628660298678283 #pvp-lfg
however i like it..
@pure sorrel First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesnโt matter how much or how well you do in other shooters. This is a knowledge game. You will die and die due to lack of experience not gear. Experience. It will require persistence and commitment. You need to learn maps, scav behavior, PMC behavior, what is good vs. bad ammo. Practice OFFLINE mode, with scavs on, at Customs. Try to make it from spawn to exit 10 times. IF you can do this 50% of the time then you are ready for online. Meanwhile use your scav at Interchange to get loot and learn the map.
Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup so you can get the PMC role and see all of Discord. IF it doesnโt work can PM the @ contact moderator bot for help.
To request a sherpa visit #sherpa-info and click the link.
So I've put together a list of tips and useful information for people who are either starting out on EFT or are just looking to refine their skills.

@kind night It has 3x MDR 308's because I had no other space for them ๐
i have 5 more gunsmith quests to do
Probably, it's a nice little gun
@bold kernel Up to you, I really enjoy the hideout ๐
@kind night i cant see that on the left hand side
cause u need alot of stuff for that
@pure sorrel you have to go to rules first
I made Hideout a priority because it was new and I wanted to upgrade it. I know how to make plenty of $ so it wasn't really a concern. I'm glad I upgraded it. Been done weeks now. I like having my bitcoin roll in every day. For now I'm just filling up a scav junk case with them.
then #pvp-lfg and ask there if someone wants to play
@waxen forge do you think its worth it?
For me yes
ive kind of slept on it big time
Honestly, the scav case is one of my favourite things
I tend not to really get any real value from it, but it's fun ๐
I want to give a fitted AK a shot, which AK should I start with as a base? Ideally lowest recoil IMO? AK-103 looks the best
@trim herald i like it too
Usually I just break even on the moonshine
and ive gotten some nice stuff from it
@sly warren AK-74N
well i want it for the money really...
You guys have to make your own decision. I've liked the idea of Hideouts and wanted to finish it as fast as possible. I like the scav case and they have brought me nice stuff. I make superwater a few times a day and that's an easy 100K per.
@bold kernel It will make you money back, but it'll take a while
@trim herald That fires 5.45, I was thinking of strickyl using 7.62 bigger bullet
well its 2-3 per day?
Ok, unpopular opinion. Shotguns are extremely underrated this patch
Ugh, 7.62x39
labs card doesnt get consumed when running an offline raid, correct?
y'all sleeping on AP slugs, magnum buck and flechette in nighttime factory
@bold kernel 1 every 5 hours when max cards
easy NVGs
wdym max cards?
I've ran some AP slugs on Customs for the quest, it's fun but struggles with higher tier armour
GPUs i think he means
50 GPU's
I use shotgun for 1 reason. When the task makes me use a shotgun.
I use them A LOT in night factory
big flahslight
That's from a few days
you blind homies
7x4 + 2
yeah that'll pay for itself goddamn
@novel ridge 250 * 50
but if its 10 gpus?
oh
but eventually itll pay back
im ashamed
as everything in like ๐ค๐ป
goddamn 29 mil
I lost a mil today
10 GPU's will give you btc more slowly, but it'll cost less
@waxen forge what ll are you?
well if i still have money after getting lvl 1 with 13 million ill invest into lvl 2 and 3
Lost a mil? That's more than Shoot's entire stash worth no?
23 days if you get 3 bitcoins a day with 50 gpus to have the gpus pay for themselves
but how many btc on lvl 1
44
1 per 10 hours maybe?
I heard you need an icepick to extract from reserve, can you loot it on a player?
thats not so bad
not player
250k each day
!wiki bitcoin farm

you can pay for the cards that way
need ice pick from woods scav boss kill
what
13 hours per bitcoin with 10 gpu
damn.. ok ima try to push to lvl 2 at least then
2 btc a day
ima do it tmrw tho
enough to buy a card each day
That's pretty nice way of doing it
just need the initial investment
Depends on the armour ๐
Trader armor isn't broken
You don't want armour that's too low durability
Unless you mean fence then flea may beat him
I think he means Fence
you can make aks for pretty dang cheap in the hideout at the workbench which i like
If it's less than 75% of max from trader then it'll start losing effectiveness very quickly
and the scav case is kinda nice for found in raid items
@floral badger im too impatient
i usually just buy them at that point
but its a nice way of making a nice little budget gun
XD guess its not for everyone. i think it only takes around an hour to 1.5 per ak
Anyone wanna join a call and help me out? I literally j8ust started
Me and my friends are noobs lol
i can help @halcyon cave

im playing on woods trying to learn a map rn lmao
good luck man!
thank ye
!wiki woods

here's some gucci info on it
Good sights for the AKM?
noice
extracts/spawns points of interest
@bold kernel Whatever optics you like
If so, then tt01 yes
tt01 and pk06 is a good, cheap combo
tyty
: )
I forgot the capital in my password when loggin in and just got an hour cool down, anyway to bypass that bull shit?
lol someone is selling 1 alyonka for 2, nice
Does the scav cooldown timer go down while in a raid as a PMC?
yes
well i hate getting a scav run like that
So I found an RR and This lovely gun, both of which I have managed to extract with, my questions are: Can the RR be yoinked from my Scabard? And is that gun good at all / worth anything?
Tag me in your response, and thank you 
it cant be
cant be yoinked from scabard
texas is 166k from skier
I'm level 3 mind you, I just have the mark key for reserve from a jacket and I'm turbo lucky
If you don't, sell it
RB-BK key 
yes
i only shot at 1 person and did 752 dmg and none was absorbed by armor and they lived and killed me?
wut
sounds like a boss then
fire fight was 10 seconds
spray, reload, spray, dead
100% it was same player, same equipment and weapon
and they peaked from same spot
Can't be, like it's literally impossible
So likely a duo
With the same loudout
One peeking after the first one did
And you almost killed both
i guess but still, even if it was 2 people, thats enough to kill 4 players
i only hit chest and head
cuz recoil blods
blows
and i cant control it
all good, very salt, much annoy
What do I need to do to put a scope on this AK plz
Add a mount

Does finding morphine on a body not count as "Finding morphine in a raid"?
Ohh so he mst have brough it in, okay
Does stuff found on ai scavs count as found in raid?
look at the size
thing is i tried the other stock doesnt work too
nvm
Yeah isnt one infantry rifle and the other carbine
no idea i bought the weapon normally and i removed the 514 from it i tried installing 730
it says u cant because i have a stock
link search of weapon will help getting right parts
tried that
Conflicting items on 730mm barrel are mosin rifle sniper carbine stock and mosin carbine stock
Here comes rommel to save the day
my game is stuck synchronising with other players (86%) and hasent moved in the past 6 mins any fix ??
That stock is slick
Makes the gun not look awful ๐
Idk i like the wood on some of the guns
Ak 74n wood stock looks nice
Sure >.>
What


Comrade 
the other day i done chemical prt 4 for skier, but i went to look fore the helmet you can buy and its saying i cant buy it and now i have a task for therapist called trust regain, did it glitch over to therapist?
dont do shit trust regain tasks they are a scam
also skier doesnt sell it
ragman does
can I join the Beginners assistance chat?
I just want somebody to play with
oh nvm theres 5
hmm still dont have it there
Unlocks purchase of ZSh-1-2M helmet (black) at Ragman LL3
Yikes therapist rep +0.3 for that quest
Are the servers good for you guys?
If you don't, no
anyone know why if your running anything with nvidia a mouse appears in the center of your screen
just do anyhter task to progress
Ight i was saying that spawning Old Gas Station is basically gameover and then my power went out
Man idk how youre so much further in the questlines than me but 7 levels lower than me, dafuq 
you pvp more
Thats debatable, i mostly crawl around to objectives and avoid fighting like the plague. Lmao
I have an extract rate of like <25% 
Just curious whatโs the best place for beginners to go to get loot cause me and my friend have been going to dorms and itโs just death every time


hi
Can someone tell me if you can escape By Warehouse 4 to the north on customs?
I have really good luck in Interchange. Its huge so theres lots of places to hide from people and rat around for loot
where do i have to apply to get assistance on voice?
Can you get out here or no?
You can take that shortcut if you have the key for it
@boreal shoal idk if u actually appl,y anywhere. Sometimes people will say they will help new players out
So the only other ways to get out are to the East?
@boreal shoal you need to accept the #521628660298678283 to join voice and use #pvp-lfg
aight
also in the #sherpa-info channel is the sign up
Yes i believe so gman
you already accepted rules i see, its the pmc role that tells me
Ddue thats so fucked. If you spawn at 12 you are screwed
Yeah kinda
What helmet should I use after the ssh steel helm?
Lol
does the damascus knife work for the quest?
should i even be keeping these knifes so early on
they take up a lot of space
what is the best ammo for an adr 556x.45 not sure what bullets to buy
someone was explaining the best route to take but my power went out
855a1/856a1
Not to mention old gas station has some rare spawn potential so people will rush and gun you down 
should i keep a2607 knifes for the quest?
whats the biggest diff recoil or lack on accuracy
HOW TO UNLOCK JAGER?
lvl 10
lvl 10 you get the mechanic quest
does he sell goood shit
whats the quest
and i need fuel so bad
https://www.dropbox.com/s/e79qo1zj62xn5k1/ViCfgkF5JI.mp4?dl=0
why it not accurate, or is it because barrel is below?
you have to pick up this note then you have to extract
i cant extract on woods
i fucking keep dying
wheres the note
i get shot by a streamer with a sniper rifle
literally keep getting sniped its so annoying
Note is at hunting stand
okay thanks
what kinda food should i be buying as a new player?
water bottle
no
not the water bottle
fuck food?
buy the aquamari water
yea fuck it
aquamari is 15k and each single point of it restores 2 water and it has 150 charages
better than norm water
Humpback salmon is always fairly cheap and good amount of energy
i never buy food lol
or water
i never bring it
i havent died of starvation or thirst but thats mainly because i dont get my stomach blacked out
whats the best item to buy and resell to upgrade ragman to level 2?
@heady wigeon I bought the small stuff in large quantities
I just camped flea market for cheap armors
@frosty plinth hmm thats what i did with skier
Like uhhh the uley rig (green one) can frequently be bought broke for for <20k, costs like 12-16k to repair but sells to ragman for 39k
trying to extract on woods is really hard. Outskirts gets redded out early, and lots of the other extracts need rubles or another person
@fathom barn 6b5?
Also repairing them will give you progress to spent towards whoevwr you use to repair but prapor is the only one you can make a profit off of
oh shit
Yeah thats the one
Just try to buy ones that are no more than 20k but have a lot of surability left.
Durability*
what do the "????" mean when it shows next to my extract
Took me like 20 minutes.
@lone star it may or may not work
You can turn it off
you can turn the gen on/off
can someone help me
@errant spoke #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to start with
@fathom barn i c i c, so the durability also affects the price, what about if its damaged
it won't let me select which language i want only region
If its damaged itll sell for less, go for the high dursbility available or preferably in good condition for the cheapest amount.
It's english by default
Its not perfect though and you may take a loss on some but it beats buying a couple hundred GSSH from him.
Im sure theres other methods too, thats just what i figured out myself and im admittedly still pretty new but i made a profit and got him leveled out of it.
Does firing single shots in full auto have some fucked up aim thing?
Just had a fight where a PMC was sneaking up on me, and I had an AK105 with RDS. I put the dot on his chin and fired a single shot, but i didn't hit him I guess? He then shot me once in the face with a pistol from like 25 m
can i go on a raid with a sherpa
how do i get fuel? 
can anyone tell me what bullets are constantly one shotting me in the helmet. i just shot someone like 6 times with low level gear and they turned and shot me once in the head and i died
any bullet will 1-tap you if they hit in the face
m995 
Mosin reloads through the top right? only need 1 mag inside the gun?
face is 1 shot if u dont have cover
Question about buying multiple versions of the standard edition, lul, the website had some issues at the time of purchase, i ended up accidentally buying 2 standard editions, does anyone know if they will or will not transfer the second version to an upgraded version? Please dm me if you have any experience with this question or reply here:) thank you:)
with a golden chain what can i do?
sell it for 10k
oke mates, thx ๐
i lost 2 aks that were insured how long till i get them back / also does it tell me if the items were lost or no? its been 12hrs
prapor
If they were stolen he'll tell you they had no luck finding them
Otherwise 24-36 hours base for return
ahh okay
You can get a hideout upgrade that makes them comeback faster too.
Youll get there, just pop in your hideout and take a look around, a lot of the level 1 stuff is very cheap to make.
Its worth it, it gives you a lot of passive bonuses and crafting options.
Faster out of raid healing, water, energy etc. Things like that.
hmm okay ill try to buy all lv1 stuff down there
Im playing customs. Whats the rcommended loadout for a guy that can't kill anybody and only has 350K (so assume I will lose my gear)
Run a pistol and be a rat
mag extra
I've done everything required in #news-setup and #521628660298678283 -- how do I gain access to the LFG room?
or pistol rat
Scav run 
^
It entirely depends on your skill level and what youre hoping to accomplish in the run though
can i get some mid-raid pricing help?
im a poor shitter tarkov player
like can i screen share and someone tell me what to keep and not, i have a number of items i know are fairly rare
I'm a low level 3, so I need to get to 5 to open the flea market
normal SKS or the Hunting edition plz ???
i rock verp km with 40k worth of attachements and try to learn that way
Neither @bold kernel
If youre planning on dividing the cheeks of the other pmcs in the maps, maybe spend more on your gear
lol
People use guns that arent some variation of an AK? 
lol i only use ak variations cause im a cheap fuck head
Sks is one ofcmy favorite guns in a lot of games. I may or may not have 2 or more very tricked out sks's i havent used.
The SKS suppressed is quiet af. Quietest gun in the game.
Well i dont even use it, i just look at them in my stash and just put on another ak 74.

Pretty sure only the integrated suppressor weapons are more quiet than the rest now
Does supressed help a good deal again alerting scavs tho?
Against*
Or do they have some telepathy shit and realize the hive is down a member when i kill one?
per slot value of cat figure?
eh okay
pistol rat implies nothing else, no armor, no helmet, no fancy pack
@fathom barn Hive mind
can someone explain the gamma case to me?
So when i down one even if its super supressed theyll swarm anyway?
It's jsut a container (that only your PMC has) that you put stuff in and you wont lose anything inside it when you die @livid river
It's an anal cavity where you can hide valuables
Correct.
No
Its my graphics card holder 
So even if I'm trash tier, I should always have that with me then right
Yes
Yeah, you can leave it empty for loot
Cheers boys
Safe container and melee cannot be looted
I keeo my very expensive spare ammo in it
last question, slot value of motor?
kk thank you
They might kill me with little to no resistance but ill be damned if i give them a 50k rouble stack of ammo.
is there some type of guide for what i should sell to what trader
Safe container doesn't even need insurance, stuff within always returns with you even if you're downed in raid
try therapist > skier > mechanic if u want to max every last ruble
im lazy and skip skier tbh
Heathen
For what she can buy, yes
youll see her price is best
can you put a grip on a LVOA handle?
well im keeping 10 of each
you probably need a mount
for the quest
have u tried linked search on the LVOA
no whats that
Linked search shows related items to an item
wtf does that do
what happens if some one immediately tk you after the raid start
Indeed, so I need a rail then a grip?
linked search on a handguard shows stuff that clips on, maybe rails, maybe just sights if it HAS rails
and whats a lvoa
LVOA is just a brand of M4A1 handguard
yeah you probably want a 6 in guide of some kind is what they call it @karmic meadow
Thanks, that's so annoying though.
guys, how do you get an FPS counter in game? I tried console fps 1 but it said no such command exists
the linked search only goes 1 layer deep
so sometimes you gotta linked search, then linked search again
@autumn sand i think its fps1
fps 1 i thought
is it case sensitive?
i think so
oh, thank you @bold kernel
don't tell me you wrote console fps 1
ah
its fps 1 fps 2 and fps 0
everyone
Oh no my flickering OCD
i have so many components
lemme ask a dumb question but just wanna make sure, analgesics have 4 uses dont they?
would not mind the scav cooldown timer if it weren't piled on this ridiculous time to wait for a match. So I run 1 scan run ever half hour or so, one PMC run same (since I need to wait for my dead guy to heal) and each comes with a 10 minute match wait time. Maybe if I run an offline my PMC is healed for that?
@pine nest you can manually patch your PMC Up with medical gear. If youre level 5, buy a Grizzly to do it efficiently.
try modding it
Yes @woeful rapids painkillers can be used 4 times.
thx
There's a few other items that can be used more.
@pine nest You can try other maps or add more servers in your launcher to get around queues. They do suck.
@hallow thicket get yourself a lucky scav junkbox
@fluid path I dont have the funds to burn through each run to heal him up, just to run him into the ground again.
@pine nest Heal thyself PMC
Ibuprofen has 12 uses and Golden Balm/Vaseline have 10.
Where are you running scav runs?
where do i get one of those @solemn depot
@fluid path thanks thats a good tip for wait times
@pine nest lvl2 therapist
if you would notice im a little bit broke af @solemn depot
i have tons of m80 bulles to burn
@hallow thicket maybe, but its good to have a plan for future
and i keep getting adars off of my scav runs
@pine nest Where are you running your scav runs?
fuck u mean
so 855a1 or 856a1 would be good rounds
M80 is for Vepr Hunter, M1A, SA58 etc
welp
I wouldn't bother with 856A1, 855A1 for life
vepr hunter time
idk
how much is bloodset, paracord, and thermometer worth? I cannot see market yet
paracord like 150
20k, 180k, 55k
thank you
@solemn depot whats a lvl 2 therapist? I am a level 3 and only have level 1 traders. I can't even get 1 scav kill for the Debut task
You will level traders up as you get higher level, spend money with them and do their quests
I mean, I know. But I may never know. Its a chicken and egg. I just jumped in, saw a guy in front of me, waited, and he's geared so I died, about 1 minute
You'll get better
alright, so I will make it my mission to learn interchange
If you have a scav run I'm happy to show you a route for Shoreline
Does the power need to be on for me to get the passive healing benefits from the Medstation lvl 2?
Yes
I need to mess around a bit offline
U sure Rommel?
Everything but the pistol, backpack, and docs case found on shoreline, only heard one person and played on my phone in a corner until they left, best raid ive had yet
so I died
Because I didn't extract
When I stood in RUAF Roadblocks
for the extraction time
ran in and out 2 times
waited out the extract time
then I got shot after being a sitting duck for 30 seconds
Legit sad
PMC or scav?
pmc
@bold kernel Reasonably, but I could be wrong
RUAF Roadblocks arent always open
@rare lark No
if the lights aren't on, it means the extraction isn't open
Not really
@left vapor So why did it say "Extracting in 8 seconds" and it was glowing green
Are you sure?
hey guys I bought the kochetov mount for the mosin sniper rifle,installed it but I cant install the PU 3.5x scope
any help?
I would report it on the launcher as a bug then
You need the ring mount, @inner sentinel
thanks
@native vessel it doesn't always work
wdym
I mean
where can i farm fuel cans
It does not always work
Bite a bullet and bought the game
Oli, on Interchange @thorny gate
Imma suffer
kk bb
'catshanka' quality meme names
is there a guide about helmets? I am wondering if any of them worth buying for runs, like does the tank helmet do anything?
it has an armor rating after all
So i should just play offline to get used to map first right?
Helmets are money sinks for beginners
so buy hats, gotcha
They will let you down more often than they'll save you
@thorny gate place I have been finding blue fuel tanks and water filters is in the back right corner of OLI. There are some well lit shelves back there and I am overflowing with fuel and filters.
Can also find them in other shelves in OLI and in the stores being renovated. Best places.
Tried to use EFT website to submit a Sherpa request and it said I was asking to raid in the year 1969
lmao
I wear ULACHS for the aesthetics... ๐
@trim herald Isn't that kind of bs, I mean I killed 4 scavs, 2 pmc's, armed & looted to the teeth, only to be not let out on an appereantly open extraction.
Why does it countdown instead of just turning red, I could've just left for another extract then.
Not try and try again until I eventually perish
I mean, after it didn't work once, you could've just moved on ๐
Isn't that literally the definition of insanity?
I'm still calling bs 
I mean sure, but it's a beta, it happens
@native vessel I recently had an extraction doing that on interchange (emercom) I was a scav and did not have time to run to the other exit (railway) I ended up ALT-F4 and reconnect in time and then it extracted.
But yes, big BS....
wait until you successfully extract and then have the front end servers be unavailable and lose everything
tarkov giveth and taketh away
Yo wasup guys
I've only ever seen it happen on the customs RUAF one
I guess I'll report it to the devs and call it a day. I had some stuff insured, if it's not yoinked I'll have it backl
ive had the customs crossroads extract with a hidden timer
Hidden timers I've had in a bunch of places
ive had laggy servers take 10 seconds to actually remove me after the timer
Always exciting
I've had it once or twice
No timer reallyups the pucker factor of extracting.
Only at RUAF though
i think my favorite was my bud at interchange power plant car, he had extracting in... on screen and all
car left him, took us (he paid), group came by and killed him moments after
good shit in this game
I have had a team member left behind by that car too.
Clearly not enough space in the UBER
He made it out at emercom though.
Which dealer should I focus building rep on the most?
Ragman
@trim herald already seems like interchange is an easier map in terms of learning layout
He won't give you quests until you have him at lvl 2
looking for someone to show me the ropes. im a decent shot just behind the learning curve
@pine nest Than Customs? I definitely don't think so but if you're finding it easier, that's good ๐
@nocturne flax All of them
Only maps I've even tried so far are Reserve and Factory, Reserve seems pretty straightforward when it comes to landmarks
Factory is garbage
Factory feels like a Reject Modern Warfare map
oh ok well I havent played yet. @trim herald. I thought customs was supposed to be one of the easiest. But if I can't succeed there, idk
factory is noice for knife runs ๐
Factory is not representative of the rest of the EFT maps. Not in design or tactics. It's EFT COD
@nocturne flax like Budracin is saying I don't focus on any one trader, too much... I tend to sell more to the trader that will level up soonest based on my PMC level though.
@pine nest Oh no, Customs is not easy. It's just the map with all your quests on
Yeah, Factory feels much more different than the other maps.
I remember when I was new trying to scrounge money by scavving into Factory, hiding in a corner for the last 10 minutes and looting the bodies ๐
Definately not what I would suggest for new players.
OK well right now if Im not mistaken the only quests that matter are killing scavs as a pmc (which I have 0 kills and 9 deaths in 9 raids so....)
idk if there are other things I can do
is Propital useful for anything?
Way back in Alpha when you kept Offline mode Gear tho
the yellow stim
I didn't play much back then, I just bought EoD because I wanted to support the game and thought it was an interesting take on FPS's
@magic knot If that was still a thing offline would be all I would do. Online only for playing with a group ๐
Howdy folks! My inventory is loaded to the brim with backup gear and barter goods and I'm struggling to figure out what to do with all these items. Anyone have tips on figuring out what to keep and what to sell?
@pine nest Find some med kits for Therapist
Propital used for anything?
Problem is even in Alpha the possible gear you could get in offline mode was random but the quality was pushed way, wayyyyy down
You'll get more quests when you finish those, and once you hit lvl 5
Like you'd find a literally unusable AKS in a box if you were lucky
@random acorn https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Quests
Escape from Tarkov Wiki
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 ...
every gun find is guaranteed ammo now
which is a great change
there is a picture of the quest items you will need on there
Thanks, Teddy - I'll look over that.
i know what it does but i dont know why it would be useful
I tried woods twice, ran out of time once because I was a scav and there was only 5 minutes left and the other time I got 1-tapped in spawn. Got a Reserve Key from the latter tho so I'm not complaining
@surreal tiger I don;t use stims, but Propital has health regeneration, removes pain among other things. So it can help you keep going in a fight.
is there any good way to make money cause im broke rn
helps you heal and stuff i guess
and ignore pain from being shot and losing limbs.
@fierce cosmos scav on reserve
@fierce cosmos Tech room barebones rush in Reserve
but dont all the geared people go there?
Think of it like a guy on PCP being shot by police and ignoring the hits until he drops dead.
Stack all the GPU's in your safe container, doesn't matter if you die, still profit
nope I dont even know what tech room is
fizz u got ur scav?
yes
Nice safe loot runs do exist. I don't suggest suicide runs.
want to do a interchange run with me?
sure
use eft loot to figure out some valuable stuff and put that stuff in your gamma
Use scav to loot on Interchange. Hit PC in Oli and Goshan and tech stores. Don't look for a fight. Loot and get out. Sell it all.
like tank shells
I cant afford gamma lmao
fizz whats ur ingame
what time are we going?
6
its CryChanda @last knoll
hold up my servers are messed up
so, how do we make money? cause I always die on this map, even as pmc
less dying = more money
biggest trick to making money is not dying ๐
fizz hop down in 5 alpha vc
Why don't I see any groups of people playing in here?
#521628660298678283 #news-setup @exotic crow
biggest trick to not dying, lots of time in game...
ah thank you
you need a memorized loot route or two for maps to make money
worth learning interchange, shoreline
reserve can make bank, but youre going to find experienced players there a lot.
Mentioned earlier I nabbed the RB-ORB2 key from Woods. It's a Reserve Key, but what's the opinion on this one? Keep or sell?
It's a reserve key, the loot in there is pretty good I guess
how do you see players on woods?
I've only survived long enough to be in there once, no weapons, only attachments.
like everyone is using a supressor
It has a weapon stand, a small box that spawn weapons and etc
you can sell them, propane tanks are pretty common
For the ADAR do you have to have that shitty front sight on there as the gas block?
@fluid path Are either Shoreline or Interchange easier to memorize for loot/cash runs?

You can sell it on the flea market if you want to.

Sorry
@trim herald do you play woods?
Hollllllly-
And you definitely don't need a thermal for woods
