[crude grove]

Allegedly they spawn there. I’ve never seen one myself.

[fathom barn]

i dont think i have the keys for that

[terse narwhal]

same]

[crude grove]

You can buy it. It’s only like 200k-400k /s

I dunno how pricey it is, but it ain’t cheap.

[terse narwhal]

best do shoreline then more likely to spawn i guess

keys i think are around same price

[trim herald]

Honestly farming the cash for the ledx will be faster than trying to farm a ledx

[fathom barn]

hmmm, buy key and try to get one the old fashioned way, or just buy the ledx

[half nova]

@steady pilot what do you mean clipboard kinda of new

[crude grove]

What Rommel said is true

[steady pilot]

When you copy and paste stuff

You have a clipboard on phone

[fathom barn]

better just get jaeger to level 2, i desperately need to clear some of this shit out of my scav case

[steady pilot]

I have ot locked to my clipboard so I just click it and pastes.

[terse narwhal]

could run interchange for graphics cards a couple times at 250k each

[fathom barn]

yeah i've done that a few times to get a nest egg, but its not very fun and i dont LIKE to do it

[terse narwhal]

250k in 3 min

i did it by accident as i was after scav kills

[pallid yacht]

i am litterly waiting 20min each game

i only played 2 games in 3 hours

[terse narwhal]

eu loading fine

[pallid yacht]

this kinda sucks ass

[fathom barn]

the other night though i was doing Database part 1 on interchange and i found a graphics card in the idea office room and it made the whole raid worth it

[steady pilot]

@pallid yacht yep. Open more server and dont let it match past 7mins in case there is a matching up. Servers are being upgraded due to twitch hype

[terse narwhal]

its a nice surprise that one, someone once left the card and went for all the pc's instead.

[hazy patio]

okp dovetail is the patrician collimator

[fathom barn]

yeah i saw it there and i was like "nah no way, its a circuit board

but nope, it was a graphics card just sitting there waiting for me to claim it with 10 miinutes left in the raid lol

[steady pilot]

Everyone forgets pc blocks spawn gpus

[fathom barn]

well it wasn't even in a pc

it was on a counter in the idea office

[steady pilot]

Yeah people overlook shit all the time

[fathom barn]

the one where the database manifests are

it was a nice surprise

[trim herald]

The spawn rate is so horric in PC's though

[fathom barn]

i still haven't found in a pc yet

[steady pilot]

!wiki pc block

[broken quail]

PC block

PC block is a Loot Container in Escape from Tarkov.

[steady pilot]

1%

Lol

[fathom barn]

oof

[hazy patio]

Still

I've found them

always check

[trim herald]

At 1% it's not even worth my time 😄

[hazy patio]

you're also checking for flashdrives and ssd's

[steady pilot]

[magic knot]

!ammo

[tribal robin]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[fathom barn]

i check every pc i can and haven't found an ssd, flashdrive or graphics card in them yet. I did find an SSD in the pocket of a scav tho

[barren meadow]

fuck i cant get anything fucking done in this game

i am so bad

i have no clue how fucking people shoot me or see me or hear me or what

its so frustrating

fuck

[steady pilot]

@barren meadow everyone is when they first start you're not alone

[trim herald]

Don't need to open the PC to check for flashdrives

[fathom barn]

yeah i know, still haven't seen one tho

[hazy patio]

Assume there is someone looking at you all the time trying to get the best shot they can

[steady pilot]

You learn from mistakes and get better

[barren meadow]

@steady pilot when does it end

[fathom barn]

and im right there with you darren, not to mention this game gives me serious anxiety

but it makes me feel alive

[barren meadow]

fucking matchmaking being 10 minutes every time isnt helping my morale

[fallen swallow]

Try dying every raid

[steady pilot]

They working on upgrading servers

Be patient

:)

[barren meadow]

@fallen swallow i don't have to TRY that.

[fathom barn]

everytime i get shot at the lizard part of my brain takes over and i just panic

[bold kernel]

20 mins in queue.... help?

[fathom barn]

and im over 200 hours in

[fallen swallow]

I've tried everything at this point

Might lose all my money soon

[reef kettle]

anyone looking to carry on customs?

[barren meadow]

last night matchmaking at peak time was like 1 minute

it was glorious

now this.

[fathom barn]

bruh i have a 21% survival rate

[steady pilot]

@reef kettle #pvp-lfg

[reef kettle]

kk didnt know which chat

[fallen swallow]

Try a 6% survival rate

[steady pilot]

I have 60% and even that it is considered shit for someone who's played forever

[barren meadow]

seriously delta

[fathom barn]

my K/D is 2.3 tho? lol

[barren meadow]

when does the pain end

level? 20?

[waxen forge]

Show off. I'm at 40

[fallen swallow]

My KD is shit

[steady pilot]

Just lay on your dick more and you can be like me

[waxen forge]

K/D means nothing here

[fallen swallow]

My sr is shit

[crude grove]

I think level 50 or 70 is highest

[fallen swallow]

Lose all my gear each raid

[steady pilot]

Losing is apart of the game

Makes earning much more rewarding

[barren meadow]

dude

losing in like 2 minutes on spawn

[fathom barn]

Doesn't stop me from hoarding gear tho

[barren meadow]

is beyond frustrating

[steady pilot]

Look up YouTube guides from pestily

Tbh

[barren meadow]

loading woods is like.... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand i'm dead.

[fathom barn]

i have so much money locked up in gear i'm afraid to use lol

[steady pilot]

Mmm I love woods

[fallen swallow]

I've watched so many guides

And I'm still shit

[steady pilot]

Gotta learn from mistakes. Spawn points. Where people walk around. People are predictable and take nearly the same paths everytime at a given spawn point.

[fathom barn]

dont worry, i'd wager most people are shit at this game, especially when starting. I'm 217 hours in and i feel no more confident even knowing the maps i play lol

[steady pilot]

I've played so much I can guess rather accurately where someone would be at a given time

Cause people are so predictable

[spice hare]

I want to know how to go from basic shit gear, (like 700k and your soul income is a scav run) to essentially the guys you see running labs in full gear, I want to get to that, but I don't know how, and I'd hate to do hatchet runs, any tips?

[odd elm]

keep playing.

[fallen hollow]

i need a cheap class 4 body armour

[odd elm]

as vague as that tip is, thats literally how you do it

[steady pilot]

Labs is ass btw

[fathom barn]

its a battle of attrition

[steady pilot]

When reserve exists

[waxen forge]

You need to run some with some experienced people or at the least go live in a channel and let some of the experienced people watch and teach you. I know you don't want to hear it but if you are constantly dying 2 minutes into a raid you are putting yourself in bad positions, taking fights you shouldn't or some combination of mistakes.

[valid dust]

dumb question do scav bosses still shoot you even if your scav? I walked up to gas station and got gun downed even though I didnt shoot a scav

[odd elm]

Upgrading from regular to insane loot basically comes from killing PMC's with higher tier shit

[steady pilot]

@valid dust yes. They warn you and give you like 15 secs

Sometimes.

[fathom barn]

@waxen forge My issue is i just dont know WHEN to move. Last night i did database part 1 and i spent 20 minutes hiding in the parking garage just waiting for the shooting to stop so i could grab the manifests

[fallen swallow]

To get good loot you need streamer luck

[valid dust]

ohhh I was confused why they acknowledge me then shot me thanks

[waxen forge]

Not really. Upgrading to high tier loots can come from earning money and buying it.

[fallen hollow]

@steady pilot cheap class 4 armour whats the name

[steady pilot]

Idk

I use tactecs only

[fathom barn]

6B3TM or 6B5-15 are both cheap and tier 4

armor rigs

[steady pilot]

Probably ^

[formal anchor]

hey im new to this discord im looking to play with other players where do i join

[waxen forge]

@fallen swallow Not even close to true

[steady pilot]

@formal anchor Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to unlock discord and be able to use #pvp-lfg. If you get a blue name you did it right. If for some reason it doesnt work, message the Contact Moderators bot for acess.

[formal anchor]

thanks that was quick

[steady pilot]

I would use an AVS over those rigs tho

@formal anchor clipboard ftw for all the 100s of people coming in asking that

[formal anchor]

ahahaha i see

[fathom barn]

AVS is definitely my preferred armored rig, but it costs a good deal more when i can grab a broken 6b5 and repair it for less than a low durability avs

[steady pilot]

Meh

You are saving a lot of cost regardless cause you're not buying armor and a rig

And it will.mostly likely return to you

[fathom barn]

30k makes a lot of difference when putting together a broke boy kit tho

[steady pilot]

I just use tactecs and let it help.me survive 7n1

The investment makes me.less broke in the end

[fathom barn]

i gotta start actually some of this better gear i have. lol so much of it has come back to me in insurance

using* even

[steady pilot]

There is an edit function. Get with the times oldman

[spice hare]

how to get good loot?

[waxen forge]

@fathom barn That's why I was suggesting running with some experienced guys or even going live in one of the channels and letting some experienced guys watch and give tips.

@spice hare Go to a map that has loot

[steady pilot]

@spice hare live. Survive.

[fathom barn]

i'll have to do that

i'm sure streaming on this game will destroy my fps tho

[waxen forge]

"good loot" is tech/hardware. That sells for the most and then you can use the $ to buy gear. Gear is not in
itself good loot. It takes up too much space in a backpack and doesn't sell for as much as the in-demand tech/hardware items.

On discord live

[steady pilot]

Ik I sound memey. But literally just surviving drives success in this game

[waxen forge]

I think it uses minimal resources

[fathom barn]

does discord live not kill performance? cause i do stream on twitch, but tarkov alone brings my pc to its knees

[steady pilot]

Just upgrade your toaster

[waxen forge]

I think discord live is minimally intensive. No real data but I know it pauses your preview screen when you click onto the game

[steady pilot]

Buy a rgb gaming chair

[fathom barn]

oh thats good

[steady pilot]

Download more ram

[waxen forge]

This wouldn't be streaming for quality...just enough so people could watch and give pointers

[fathom barn]

good point, how do i go about setting that up? I mean getting someone to watch a run? Is there a formal deal like the sherpa thing on the website or just find one of you guys when you're not busy?

[steady pilot]

Just ask around

[fallen hollow]

need help, what else should i bring with me?

[timid wadi]

helping out beginners in channel 1

[steady pilot]

#pvp-lfg

[waxen forge]

Need to use the discord desktop app not the web version

[steady pilot]

Sitting in begginer assistance voicd chat probably will attract a sherpa

[waxen forge]

Then if you notice all the guys on the left side live I'm thinking if you go live people will come in

[steady pilot]

@fallen hollow spare ammo to top mags

[waxen forge]

Or you can ask some of the vets to watch if they are hanging out

[fathom barn]

oh i'm on the desktop app for sure

[fallen hollow]

cheers

[steady pilot]

Put it in container

[fallen hollow]

@steady pilot how much ammo?

[fathom barn]

I'll try that out tonight @waxen forge thanks for the info

[waxen forge]

No problem

[odd elm]

Hypothetically, if a friend who owns EOD gave HIS friend a gamma container, then reset his profile, would both people have a gamma container?

Asking for a friend, monka

[fallen swallow]

Welp time for one more scav run let's see if I get rekt within 5 seconds

[waxen forge]

Used to be like that...can't drop containers anymore

[steady pilot]

@odd elm you cant trade containers anymore

[odd elm]

oop

[waxen forge]

Where you scaving @fallen swallow

[fallen swallow]

Reserve

[odd elm]

dang that hypothetical situation would be cool tho haha- yea- 😦

[waxen forge]

Go Interchange

Less heat

[fallen swallow]

Fucking hate interchange

😂

[trim herald]

Shoreline then

[waxen forge]

But it's $ and less heat if you sneak around

[tardy comet]

any sherpas looking to help a beginner?

[waxen forge]

@tardy comet Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup so you can get the PMC role and see all of Discord. IF it doesn’t work can PM the @ contact moderator bot for help. #pvp-lfg

[steady pilot]

@fallen hollow a stack is fine. Just dont magdump if you can help it. Also go buy a alu splint. Its 5 uses. And a ibuprofen bottle is 12 uses go get one

[fallen swallow]

Sneaking around and just getting the run through thing every raid isn't fun

[waxen forge]

You said you were needing a survive and to get some gear

[trim herald]

Impossible to get a run through on shoreline if you go cache hunting

[steady pilot]

Dont need bandages when you have an ifak

[waxen forge]

Running and gunning isn't going to work for u

[trim herald]

You'll get so much xp from the looting alone

[fallen swallow]

Wel I have gear but if I keep dying I'll have nothing lol

[fathom barn]

finally, jaeger level 2

[trim herald]

And if you're PMC you can happily grab a few scavs at powerplant on the way out

[magic knot]

When is sunrise in this game in in-game time?

[waxen forge]

Thing is your method isn't working....so we are suggesting alternative methods.

[steady pilot]

5am ish

[waxen forge]

If you want to improve your success may have to adapt

Vs. trying the same thing over and over

[hexed steeple]

best way to start out? scav factory?

[fiery fractal]

can someone point me to the ammo types?

[waxen forge]

HELL NO

[magic knot]

TT a decent budget-pistol with the right ammo?

!ammo

[tribal robin]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[waxen forge]

Not factory

[steady pilot]

@hexed steeple scav interchange

[fiery fractal]

pog thanks

[young kettle]

Scav shoreline or interchange

[fathom barn]

my scav runs started making me so much money when i started going interchange

[waxen forge]

@hexed steeple First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesn’t 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 doesn’t work can PM the @ contact moderator bot for help. #pvp-lfg

[fallen swallow]

Lol I started with factory only

[steady pilot]

Factory is worst map

[fallen swallow]

Only did factory scav runs when I first started

[waxen forge]

Waste of scav

[steady pilot]

^

[fathom barn]

100%

[fallen swallow]

Not if you get out lol

[waxen forge]

Not representative of how to play the game

[fathom barn]

unless you're a gaming messiah

i guess

[fallen hollow]

@steady pilot am i ready?

[steady pilot]

Good nuff

[waxen forge]

I'm beginning to see your problem @fallen swallow You want to run and gun and keep doing it your way. We suggest options but you aren't seemingly wanting to adapt.

[steady pilot]

Not a fan of low power optics

[fallen hollow]

delta?

[steady pilot]

More power to ya

[fallen hollow]

any other attachments i should put on the vss

[steady pilot]

Nope

Dossnt need any

[fallen swallow]

Lol I don't run and gun

[steady pilot]

^

[magic knot]

Not being toxic, being genuine, but CoD or BF might be a better run and gun title. EFT is slower paced because it harshly punishes mistakes

[steady pilot]

Yep

[trim herald]

@fallen swallow Even if you get out on Factory it's pretty fucking garbage 😄

[steady pilot]

Although to a very good veteran player

Aggresive gameplay is rewarded

Sadly

[fallen swallow]

I'm just saying I did that when I started

[molten marsh]

Anyone get the bug where you can't see or hear any enemys but they can see/hear you hence kill you, its pretty much like you're playing in offline mode for yourself but you're in someone elses game without knowing

I've been getting this problem too often recently

[magic knot]

So are servers down-down or just slow? Yesterday was able to group in 5 minutes or less for Interchange, now it's 6+ minutes

[trim herald]

You sure you aren't just getting killed by people who spot you first? Or at longer range? @molten marsh As I've never heard of that bug

[ornate zenith]

Sounds like desync..

[waxen forge]

@magic knot getting overloaded again

[magic knot]

Ah, thanks

[fallen hollow]

@molten marsh if your getting killed by scavs, they can see you through foliage cause they cant see it and you just cant hear them cause there further away

[molten marsh]

@trim herald i an positive, i was playing with someone else, they could see me i couldnt see them, they call hearing shots and i dont hear anything

[steady pilot]

Scav AI are worse than players

[ornate zenith]

Definitely sounds like desync to me.

[steady pilot]

[lilac dawn]

sw_delta what bullerts would u usually advise

[steady pilot]

For?

[fallen hollow]

@ornate zenith yeah it does

[lilac dawn]

is the most expensive always the best?

[fallen hollow]

no

[steady pilot]

No

[pseudo python]

anyone wanna play a few?

[lilac dawn]

what is usually the best bp and bs?

[steady pilot]

Foooooor

What

[molten marsh]

But can desync be for an entire run? because i've gone entire runs like that

[fallen hollow]

@pseudo python #pvp-lfg

[lilac dawn]

i dno like a ak47

[trim herald]

BP for 7.62x39, BS for 5.45x39

[steady pilot]

You mean akm

[lilac dawn]

yh all of them

[steady pilot]

Ak47 doesnr exist lol

[lilac dawn]

yh

just aks

ak-74m

[steady pilot]

Akm, 762 bp is kinda your best bet, but ps will work

Ak74 545 bs is honestly your only bet. Use bt and BP if you want just dont expect good results

[trim herald]

Eh, AKM is basically an AK47

[fathom barn]

i dont like the akm

[trim herald]

Just stamped, rather than milled

Same shit

[steady pilot]

Upgraded receiver

Its more modernized over the orginal.ak47

Not just stamp vs mill

[lilac dawn]

best budget armour for interchange what would u say just anything t4?

[steady pilot]

Sure

T4 is minimum recommended

[lilac dawn]

!ammo

[tribal robin]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[lilac dawn]

where is the ammo spreadsheet?

[steady pilot]

There

[young kettle]

How do I know what tier my armor is?

[steady pilot]

Inspect it

Look at class

[young kettle]

Thanks!

[steady pilot]

@shogun将軍#7496 #pvp-lfg

@bold kernel

[young kettle]

I need t4 armor to really do anything against rifles right?

[steady pilot]

Pretty much

Even then it's not enough imo

I use class 5 minimum

I just don't recommend lower than t4

[glass trout]

is there a way to get a 45 degree mount on the CMRD AK handguard?

[steady pilot]

Linked search the handguard. Add rail

[tawdry berry]

i just did the 1st therapist quest and i cant collet any items

[novel ridge]

at what level is a skill elite

[tawdry berry]

why is that happening ?

[steady pilot]

51

[calm gust]

do you change the servers you're qued for in the launcher or in game?

[trim herald]

Launcher

[steady pilot]

Launcher

[glass trout]

theres no compatible top rail? all the rails are under or the sides unless im doing something wrong

[gleaming rivet]

anyone wanna do some sweaty pistol runs?

[steady pilot]

@gleaming rivet Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to unlock discord and be able to use #pvp-lfg. If you get a blue name you did it right. If for some reason it doesnt work, message the Contact Moderators bot for acess.

@glass trout the same rail that mounts a grip on bottom should go on top

[gleaming rivet]

did it work?

nvm

[steady pilot]

Use this to learn modding

Shows you all parts for free

And comptabilities

[lofty shuttle]

so if you have the Kappa container do you lose it when the wipe happens

[steady pilot]

Yes

[magic knot]

Confirmed a Sherpa session, and the kit provided had a Glock 17 without barrel or slide...? 17 Slides only sell for Euro's so I can't complete the gun. I can sub in my own sidearm, I'm just a bit confused

[lofty shuttle]

WTF

[calm gust]

So wait is it better to do automatic server selection? or multiple servers so that you aren't in just one?

[steady pilot]

Auto is recommended

If it's not working force more servers

Under 150 ping

[trim herald]

@magic knot You got trolled by a Sherpa, who was it?

[glass moon]

I just stalked a pmc looking for the perfect chance to kill them and when the time came i forgot that my ak is on single fire -.-

[trim herald]

NAME AND SHAME, NAME AND SHAME 😄

[steady pilot]

@glass moon tapfire is good

[trim herald]

Not if you expect it to be on Auto

[glass moon]

[steady pilot]

I guess

I just boop people in head

[glass moon]

u so good 🤩

[steady pilot]

[magic knot]

@trim herald Ain't saying, doesn't bother me enough to out them

[sour plume]

They might do that to other people tho

Trolling sherpas are very harmful to the beginner community

[trim herald]

I bet it was Shoot

[sour plume]

and in general

[trim herald]

Was it Shoot?

[steady pilot]

Of course it was shoot

[trim herald]

He's too broke to buy a glock with a slide or barrel

[magic knot]

Wasn't shoot, I'll say that much

[steady pilot]

He got a red rebel and paracord from someone in towers server

[trim herald]

Shoot under an alias, obviously

[bold kernel]

me and my friend can both load into games fine but when we load together we cant get a game? anyone know why?

[fallen swallow]

What do I need to buy to fuel the hideout?

[trim herald]

Fuel

[sour plume]

Also a glock is an...interesting choice for a sherpa loadout

[steady pilot]

Money

[trim herald]

@bold kernel Seems to take longer for squads than solos atm

@fallen swallow Metal of expeditionary fuel tanks

it's not about level, it's about overall knowledge

1v1 me bruh

[trim herald]

@lilac dawn When you feel like you can 360 no scope everyone

[sour plume]

you'll decide for yourself when you stop feeling like a beginner

[fathom barn]

i'm level 30 and i feel no more confident than i did when i was level 1 a month ago. I just get lucky sometimes.

[lilac dawn]

where is god loot in interchange?

[steady pilot]

Tech stores

Computers

Oli

[fathom barn]

i'm just a noob that knows the map... sorta.

[steady pilot]

Caches outside

[sour plume]

I've seen a lvl 24 with probably more pvp/game knowledge than most people who play the game

and at the same time I've seen a lvl 37 who thinks 9mm is good and doesn't know what fuel tanks for his quests are

[steady pilot]

Cause level doesnt define experience

Wipes do

[obtuse raven]

Anyone wanna duo?

[steady pilot]

@obtuse raven #pvp-lfg

[magic knot]

How u git in Kiba tho

[sour plume]

some people also just don't do quests and will be under leveled as a result

you buy both kiba keys

[steady pilot]

^

[magic knot]

I wAnT mY m4 REerEeEeE

[steady pilot]

Kiba is a pointless store to loot

[hazy patio]

What is the difference between the vss vintorez and a vs val?

[steady pilot]

Not worth risk

[trim herald]

40k, @hazy patio

[grave helm]

Im currently lvl 26 and havent done signal part 1 yet lmao

[sour plume]

i dont think it's pointless at all

[trim herald]

Kiba is pretty pointless

[urban root]

No nothing like that defines experience Delta, experience is based not only on time but the ability and want to learn about the game. Plenty of players claim they're experience because they have a certain amount of time or wipes but if you're not willing to actually figure out how it works it means nothing.

[fathom barn]

I'm 30 and haven't done it @grave helm

[trim herald]

Very rarely worth the time it takes to get in

[sour plume]

even without the modded m4/ak spawn you can leave with hundreds of thousands in attachments

[fathom barn]

i've done the easy part of it, i just haven't gone to resort for the 2nd antenna yet lol

[trim herald]

CAN

[steady pilot]

@hazy patio nothing. Pretty much same stats. Vss is 40k vs 80k val. Vss levels DMR skill and val levels assault skill.

[trim herald]

Likely won't

[sour plume]

ye but what's the risk?

[trim herald]

Killa, other players

[steady pilot]

Literally everyone else hunting pmcs

Around kiba

[sour plume]

the risk is whatever you choose to bring in and you can gamma anything besides thermal scopes

[hazy patio]

ah so the val is only high because people are able to use their much more leveled recoil skills

[trim herald]

It's not worth it on a loot run for sure

[steady pilot]

The amount of times it would take to survive kiba would not make it worth it

[grave helm]

@trim herald out of my 4 kiba runs I only died once and got vss, modded m4, ak and a loot of good mods

[hazy patio]

makes sense in way

and none in others

[sour plume]

find 3 scopes/suppressors you just made over 100k for nothing

[steady pilot]

Ok the same can be said about a tech store and gpu

Which is much less risk

And no keys

[trim herald]

@grave helm You total up the cost of the guns and mods from all three runs, I bet you a single techlight run would've equalled or beat it

Or a single backshelf Oli run

[sour plume]

tech stores are less risk? im fairly certain pmc hunters check tech stores before they check kiba lol

[steady pilot]

Nah

[sour plume]

i very rarely see anyone else near emercom or kiba early in the raid

[trim herald]

No scavs at tech stores, so no noise, also no standing around like a moron opening two doors, or being stuck in a glass hut

[steady pilot]

You need to work on your pathing if thsts what you think

[fathom barn]

tech stores i usually only run into other hatchings and we knife fight each other.

[trim herald]

You can loot all good loot spots and be out by 6 min

[finite jay]

Is it normal to sit for 4+ minutes in matchmaking?

[grave helm]

@trim herald I made around 900k ish I would say and most came from my latest run some mins ago, it is worth it looting but u have to be fast ^^

[fathom barn]

the other night i got into a knife fight with 2 other hatchlings in ramsussen or w/e the techstore behind texho is

[trim herald]

@grave helm You made 900k from some scopes, an M4, a VSS and an AK?

@grave helm I mean you didn't, but ok

[odd elm]

while scaving, is it faster to load in as a duo, or as a full scav team?

[grave helm]

I made 140k just from 4 mods a moment ago lol?

[steady pilot]

@finite jay currently yes till they fix servers

[trim herald]

M4 was what? 150k, AK maybe the same, VSS is 50k. So we're looking at 350k

Unless you also looted like 3 REAPIRs

[grave helm]

in 3 runs?

[trim herald]

No way you hit 900k

[sour plume]

I did have a run where I made around 500-600k just from attachments from kiba

[trim herald]

Yes

A RUN

A SINGULAR run

[steady pilot]

Regardless kiba requires key and a lot more risk to survive

[trim herald]

That's like me saying I found 3 GPU's in Techlight once so every raid is 1 mil+

[fathom barn]

Several people are typing

[sour plume]

a bunch of scopes, a REAPIR, a FLIR, couple suppressors, a box of 9x39 BP

[grave helm]

I TOLD YOU I made 900k ish in 3 runs wtf are on about,

[bold kernel]

easiest ways to make money

[trim herald]

And you said you got an AK, a M4, a VSS and some attachments over the course of 3 runs

[trim herald]

That does not add up to 900k

[sour plume]

he said most came from his latest run btw rommel, not that all of it came from his latest run

[bold kernel]

what happend

[finite jay]

I'm at 8 minutes in matchmaking

[grave helm]

I also found 3gpus in my last interchange run before I got into kiba

[finite jay]

This is not fun :(

[crude grove]

I once found two GPUs in Rasmussen and I apologized for saying it was the worst of the three shops

[bold kernel]

ur lucky

asf

[grave helm]

@trim herald My bad, I meant in one run

[trim herald]

Right, so the GPU's that weren't in Kiba was way better loot than everything you got from Kiba

[grave helm]

^

true

[trim herald]

Which proves my point

[crude grove]

Why a sicc and not a key tool tho

[magic knot]

inb4 Kiba has small chance to spawn 8 GPU's

[trim herald]

Kiba is added risk, as if you're doing a loot run you'll get fucked by Killa if he's there

[sour plume]

sicc is way better than keytool

[steady pilot]

Kiba again, not worth risk and payment for keys when literally gpus and tech stores exist.

[trim herald]

Not for a loot run @sour plume

[sour plume]

okay fair

[trim herald]

You won't find anything on IC that goes in it

For Shoreline, sure

[crude grove]

What Rommel said

[grave helm]

I had a key tool + dogtag case + doc case for money etc but switched it for a Sicc* one

[crude grove]

Oh.

[steady pilot]

Sicc*

[crude grove]

That’s too much.

[trim herald]

I ran keytool/Dogtag until I got a sicc

[crude grove]

I normally only use a sicc case for customs because the sheer amount of keys

[sour plume]

if you're doing a "loot run" on ic though you dont bring keytool either right?

[crude grove]

I do.

[steady pilot]

Why

[grave helm]

same Rommel

[sour plume]

if you're just rushing tech stores keytool is useless

[steady pilot]

Customs keys are worthless

[grave helm]

before I got keytool I went for Doc case

[steady pilot]

Marked is all you need

[trim herald]

I do, only so if I get a late spawn and all techstores are looted I can rush and die at Kiba

[steady pilot]

[grave helm]

I should stop writing and actually play my raid lmao

[sour plume]

late spawns existing is stupid

[trim herald]

No arguments here

[crude grove]

Also what Rommel said

[sour plume]

unfair to people with slightly worse systems

[trim herald]

Dude

[crude grove]

It’s not a hardware issue.

[trim herald]

I get late spawned with a 8700k, 16gb of 3600 RAM and a 2080TI

[sour plume]

ive died on ic several times solely because i spawned like 30-60 seconds late lol

[trim herald]

It's not hardware

[sour plume]

oh okay

yikes then

[trim herald]

Oh and my game's on a nvme ssd

[bold kernel]

how u get so many gpu

[trim herald]

Cheats

[alpine trout]

buy em?

[magic knot]

Managed to Camp Fence to complete that G17 for chicken scratch

Lul

[trim herald]

Open console and type "GIF GPU PLEZ"

[magic knot]

If only, Rommel

[sour plume]

So late spawns exist for no reason

[grave helm]

Tried it, game crashed. Thank you @trim herald

[fast stirrup]

yo can someone help me play eft cuz im shit at dis game

[trim herald]

@sour plume Pretty sure it's when a server was launched without max players you get thrown into it if you search for a game on that map within a certain time period, like 5 min or whatever

[waxen forge]

@fast stirrup First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesn’t 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.

[fallen swallow]

It's funny how I actively avoid fights in tarkov and when I do get in a fight I get 1 tapped

[trim herald]

Was it BUD?!

[sour plume]

as much as everyone hates queue times I'm sure we'd rather wait an extra couple minutes to actually be able to start the raid from the start

[trim herald]

He's a boomer so it'd be excusable

[waxen forge]

I have no control over sherpa kits

[snow hedge]

an hour lock out for a wrong password?

[sour plume]

jesus

[snow hedge]

what a joke

[waxen forge]

Unless it's something I provide specifically out of my own pocket

[sour plume]

does bstate provide sherpa kits?

[trim herald]

Romeo was given a glock as part of his kit without a barrel or slide 😄

[magic knot]

I was under the impression Sherpa kits were generated

[waxen forge]

@sour plume Yes

[sour plume]

interesting

[trim herald]

So Romeo was cucked by NIKITA

[sour plume]

I thought sherpa provided kits were always out of pocket lol

[trim herald]

NIKITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[magic knot]

Managed to sit on Fence and nab the parts to complete tho

Game failed to cuck me lul

[bold kernel]

Am I wrong or the thermobag is grossly overcharged in the flea market?

[trim herald]

You're wrong

[sour plume]

who tf sells their gun parts to fence lmfao

[trim herald]

madlads

That's who

[bold kernel]

the barter of the dude is over 690k??

[sour plume]

a bag to hold all of your water and food is pretty useful if you play a lot and never scav raid

[bold kernel]

10 hot rods, 5 tar cola, 5 herring, 5 squash are over 690k?

[trim herald]

No, but you're paying for the convenience of one click

[bold kernel]

lol

[magic knot]

"Lul good luck with this Glock frame noob"
JOKE'S ON YOU GAME I'LL JUST WATCH MARKET LIKE A HAWK

[alpine trout]

5 squash, 150k

[sour plume]

herring i think is like 20k, hot rods are ~15k, tar cola maybe the same, squash i forget

[alpine trout]

idk about the rest

[trim herald]

Any item you can barter for is cheaper generally to just buy all the items

[magic knot]

I'm still wheezing from that

[alpine trout]

150k in hot rods, 150k in squash, 100k in herring, idk about tar cola

sooo

[trim herald]

I've made literally millions just reselling Red Rebels and SICC cases from the barter

[bold kernel]

so I need to get jaeger asap and save like 200k got it

[alpine trout]

more like 450k

but sure

or just buy the bag from the flea

cause it's worth

[trim herald]

Huh? The thermo case is from Therapist

[sour plume]

suppose I should buy the red rebel

[bold kernel]

I'll keep storing food in by vests

[trim herald]

Wait

It isn't anymore?

[alpine trout]

no it's jaeger

[bold kernel]

@trim herald no its from jaeger

[left knot]

so when im crouching and im looting something, i stay toggled crouch when i stop looting anyone know how to fix this?

[bold kernel]

lv2 jaeger

[trim herald]

That explains the price a bit as well I guess

A lot of people really struggle to get him unlocked and level him

[sly pond]

wow

[sour plume]

nvm it's out of stock

guess i'll try again later lul

[sonic lake]

@split vapor wanna bring me along 😉

[left knot]

ok cool thanks guys

[bold kernel]

is there someway i can get money without dying every six seconds in a game? i have 5k roubles and not a single gun

[fathom barn]

i just got level 2 jaeger and im happy about it for the surgery kits lol

[trim herald]

@bold kernel Where do you scav run?

[fathom barn]

people charge so much for that shit on fleamarket its disgusting

[fallen swallow]

Yikes dxrk

[trim herald]

@sour plume He resets hourly so

[split vapor]

sure

[bold kernel]

customs or factory but i always die

[split vapor]

get in a BA vc

[trim herald]

That's where you're going wrong

[bold kernel]

ok

[trim herald]

Scav run on Shoreline for caches or Interchange

[split vapor]

@sonic lake

[sour plume]

interchang

[sonic lake]

... theres like 3

[split vapor]

just get in one thats opem

re

[bold kernel]

ok

[split vapor]

:justdoit:

[sonic lake]

theres someone therre 😦

[split vapor]

idk

ill move u

ffs

[fallen swallow]

😂

[trim herald]

Shoot is going to drag you into super secret voice chat

[sour plume]

jealous

[fallen swallow]

Beware enter at your own risk

[bold kernel]

if I dont have a backpack on me I should scav on factory right?

[trim herald]

No

[fallen swallow]

No lol

[trim herald]

Still scav Shoreline caches or Interchange

[waxen forge]

Never

[steady pilot]

You shouldn't factory scav period

[magic knot]

I don't like where this is going

[fallen swallow]

Only if you wanna wait till everyone is gone kek

[trim herald]

You'll generally have a larger vest if you don't have a backpack

[bold kernel]

I have a vpo which likely has FMJ, no backpack and the shit 6 slot vest, I'm not gonna kill players and I cant rely on scavs having a bag

[waxen forge]

You can find a backpack in other maps. You can find an isolated scav and take his. On factory you have no time to loot and multiple angles to cover

[sour plume]

Factory scav is fun

but not something you should do for money

[trim herald]

@bold kernel And you can still make 200k with a scav vest from caches or Interchange

[waxen forge]

If your goal is to shoot stuff then yes

[trim herald]

But sure

You do you 😄

[fallen swallow]

I should just sell my factory. Keys lol

[waxen forge]

IF You are broke then it's dumb

[fallen swallow]

I have 2 - 50/50 keys

[trim herald]

Sell one to therapist

[fallen swallow]

Why 1?

[bold kernel]

the point is that on factory I either die immediately and go on the PMC or I get out with a little loot and can surely find a backpack on the back of a scav

[trim herald]

May as well keep one no?

[bold kernel]

in other maps I could loot for 20m and then die to a PMC

[trim herald]

Unless you're broke AF

[bold kernel]

I dont want to lose time

[fallen swallow]

Isn't it more worth to flea?

[magic knot]

Is TT a decent budget sidearm? I asked this before but didn't see a reply, sorry if this was already answered.

[alpine trout]

factory keys kinda trash

can just jump the wall a little past the gas station

[trim herald]

As I said, @bold kernel , you can make 200k+ with just a scav vest on Shoreline caches or Interchange

[alpine trout]

or from the car on the inside

[gleaming rivet]

.

[sour plume]

can also die very easily while doing that

and make a ton of noise in the process

[trim herald]

@fallen swallow About the same price on Flea as to Therapist

@magic knot Not really

[alpine trout]

can't say I've ever died jumping the wall

[bold kernel]

@trim herald how am I gonna do 200k with 6 single slots and 2 double slots

[sour plume]

i have, more than once

[devout kindle]

@magic knot You really shouldn't bring a sidearm unless you have no other option

[sour plume]

not that many times but still

[devout kindle]

They won't Pierce through any good armor so

[bold kernel]

no bitcoin or GP coin or similar answers

[trim herald]

@magic knot Honestly I wouldn't recommend any pistol other than 5-7, and generally no sidearm at all 😄

@bold kernel 1 GPU

[fallen swallow]

Ah gotcha rommel

[steady pilot]

Veprkm is my sidearm

[magic knot]

I have a 5-7 from the New Year's Care Package but I don't wanna risk losing it

[sour plume]

toz best sidearm

[trim herald]

@alpine trout I've died to scav boss at new gas when jumping the wall

[bold kernel]

GPU in a cache?

[magic knot]

Pencil pp

[plucky apex]

do more people played geared at night or daytime on shoreline

[fathom barn]

okay what in the hell just happened. I was scavving on interchange, spawned next to another player scav, killed him, my game stuttered and 2 ai scavs just spawned in front of me and killed me.

[trim herald]

@bold kernel Low, but you don't need one. You can happily find a P90 and some random stuff, even just 10 screws is 200k

[steady pilot]

@plucky apex same 🤷

[trim herald]

20k slot value isn't uncommon at all in caches

1 fuel conditioner is just under 100k

[bold kernel]

@trim herald where do you find p90s just laying around? reserve? surely not interchange or shoreline caches

[trim herald]

Caches

I've had like 3

[vale summit]

whos trying to squad up

[trim herald]

Or 4

[sour plume]

what even are caches? random little underground barrel/other shit that spawns throughout the map?

[bold kernel]

p90s in caches????????

[hazy patio]

How do I aim if the game does not agree?

[trim herald]

Yes

[magic knot]

So for Geared runs AKM or bust?

[trim herald]

@sour plume yes

[steady pilot]

Caches have almost anything

[sour plume]

take one of those off shunt, lol

[trim herald]

Anything that can fit in them, so no long guns

But shorty AK's, p90'

[sour plume]

I've never found anything but ammo in those tbh

[hazy patio]

The red dot and the two optics do not agree

[trim herald]

etc

[hazy patio]

one must be right

hwo do i add steam overlay to tarkov?

?

This game isnt on steam

Why would there be an overlay

[autumn rivet]

Anyone know the difference between RTT and Player RTT? My RTT was showing 47, but my Player RTT was like 4000 at times.

[sour plume]

you can add tarkov to your steam library

[steady pilot]

[icy cosmos]

how?

[hazy patio]

player rtt is your ping

[jovial fractal]

@icy cosmos Add it to steam as a non steam game and launch it from there

[hazy patio]

rtt is server ping

[sour plume]

add it as a non steam game ye

can do that with any game

[steady pilot]

Alright then

[sour plume]

and it should let you use overlay while in game

[icy cosmos]

then i can use controller right?

[sour plume]

probably not, idk tho

[steady pilot]

No

[sour plume]

this isn't a controller friendly game lol

there's a lot of buttons

[steady pilot]

There is no controller support yet

[icy cosmos]

why not if steam has controller

[steady pilot]

You have to macro buttons to act like leys

[icy cosmos]

cant i use controller through steam?

diregarding button

[steady pilot]

Bruh you realize steam says "controller suppprt" or "partial controller support of it does "

[icy cosmos]

disregarding lack of buttons can i

[magic knot]

Because the game isn't a Steam game and even though you can apply overlay through adding to library it doesn't provide the necessary bridging software required to enable controller use

[steady pilot]

It's not a steam game

So why would it have controller support from steam

[icy cosmos]

idk i saw some posts claiming i can

just wanted to confirm

[split vapor]

uh it cant

[steady pilot]

If you set up the macro sure?

If you dont know why u cant use a scope on a gun just look at the wiki

[steady pilot]

Sv98

• cost 25k
  -40 ergo
  -140 recoil
  -has mags
  -rail ready to mount optics
  -suppressor is 25k

Mosin
-30k
-5 ergo
-180 recoil
-suppressor cost 40k
-need kochetov mounting
-internal mag with only 5 rounds and loses a round everytime you press R

[magic knot]

Managed to slap this together from a scav run and a couple failed PMC runs with Gamma loot, no idea if it's any good

hmm sv98 looks appealing

[steady pilot]

Its budget

[grave helm]

@smoky kindle You need to do the task to unlock more task. Thats how Task/Quest/Missions work.

Nikita wasnt ready

[unique wolf]

oh cmon, there's no way their servers are that buoyant

[uncut socket]

any maps not taking 10+ mins to load in?

[grave helm]

What server are u guys on?

[unique wolf]

I got into Customs in like 50 seconds for offline, that's about it

[grave helm]

I get into a raid after max 2mins

[inner sentinel]

Is it worth the the time to just loot the garages+power station+2 outside stashes on interchange?

[magic knot]

Offline just throws you in as soon as it loads tho

[steady pilot]

I have no issues on murican servers

Tbh

[magic knot]

I've been having tons of trouble in East Coast NA

[uncut socket]

east us

[grave helm]

@inner sentinel I doubt that, even tho I found a paracord on a scav in the power station. Also u have like 3 PC's there aswell

[icy cosmos]

hey if anyone is able to hop on a call with me to intro game tht would be great

[inner sentinel]

Ah,I'm asking beacuse im too scared to venture inside the mall

[sharp yarrow]

had good queue times earlier today, but havent been able to get a game for the past 45 min. Happen to anyone else?

[uncut socket]

^yes

[waxen forge]

Later in US east. People off work...servers getting full

[lethal sage]

Ok... i just bought the game... i have to ask what happens when you die?

[uncut socket]

you lose everything except whats in container

[waxen forge]

YOu have to rebuy the game

[trim herald]

That's a very deep question dude

[sharp yarrow]

im not queueing for east servers

[steady pilot]

@lethal sage Go to #521628660298678283 and #news-setup to unlock discord and be able to use #pvp-lfg. If you get a blue name you did it right. If for some reason it doesnt work, message the Contact Moderators bot for acess.

[trim herald]

I'm not sure if we have time for a whole philosophical debate

[inner sentinel]

I had 3 games load nearly instantly on customs and then waited 10 mins for a scav run on IC

[icy cosmos]

is it stupid to just hop in game to learn? like start with good stuff tht i can lose?

[trim herald]

Yes

Play offline

Watch stuff from Pestily

Do Scav runs

[waxen forge]

@icy cosmos First thing to do is RESET EXPECTATIONS. Doesn’t 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.

[steady pilot]

@lethal sage if you die you lose whatever you have on you

[grave helm]

Its 1am @trim herald time is there

[trim herald]

It's midnight thank you very much

[icy cosmos]

[inner sentinel]

Yes

[trim herald]

Basically yes Echo

[waxen forge]

However do not underestimate scavs as a new player

[inner sentinel]

I use offline solely to test recoil

[grave helm]

@icy cosmos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxM2Atm4ccg&t=109s

[steady pilot]

Imagine needing an offline explained video

Its offline. Bro

[inner sentinel]

Guys does anyone know any attachments guides? I'm having a very hard time controllint recoil and finding which attachment need what rail etc

[proud patrol]

Guess and check

Or ask

[steady pilot]

@inner sentinellinked search

[proud patrol]

Linked search too

[inner sentinel]

And does the gun part material change anything?

[proud patrol]

Sometimes works

No

Material doesn’t matter

[steady pilot]

Mod for free with this ^

[waxen forge]

[magic knot]

Offline in Alpha let you keep all gear you found

Was busted asf

[inner sentinel]

Say if I change my wooden/scrap vepr to a polymer one it doesnt change a thing right?

[grave helm]

U can also look up builds on youtube or reddit

[steady pilot]

@inner sentinel technically it has +1 more ergo but that's it..

[inner sentinel]
