And you're good

blazing kite

Inject yourself with Propital and you wont make the noises

trim herald
#

That one

atomic jewel
#

That stops the noise? Was already planning on it for healing

blazing kite
#

you will heal enough to not make the Im dying sounds

bold kernel
#

so would this gun be counted as well modified? if so how much do u think it would cost to mod one like that, (estimate)

unique willow
#

200k

nocturne nebula
#

You're supposed to be able to use CMS on all 0'd out body parts right? Couldn't seem to sew up my thorax just now...

bold kernel
#

is it actually good? should i save the preset?

fervent tide
#

how do i refill my fuel tanks

waxen forge
#

You don't

#

Go get new ones in Oli

blazing kite
#

You get new fuel tanks

fervent tide
#

oh, do i just sell empty ones to traders?

trim herald
#

That's not a 200k mod I wouldn't say

waxen forge
#

Or go on flea and scroll all the way down to about 69K and start inspecting to find the full ones

trim herald
#

It's a meta mod though

bold kernel
#

okay. ima save the preset and not sell it ill use it sometime then

trim herald
#

Wait

#

The PK isn't on the ncstar?

bold kernel
#

apparently not

waxen forge
#

weird

bold kernel
#

well he is lvl 16 ..

trim herald
#

So he got a build from somewhere but didn't understand it

bold kernel
#

looks like it l

#

lol

trim herald
#

Put the PK on the ncstar

bold kernel
#

i did.

#

guessing i should put an acog or something on gun

trim herald
#

Also putting the mbus on there to increase ergo

#

Is so pointless when the entire purpose of the ncstar is to remove ergo from the calculation

bold kernel
#

mbus?

trim herald
#

The iron sights

bold kernel
#

hm..

#

what muzzle u think would be good on it

#

just a suppresor?

trim herald
#

It has a muzzle on it

bold kernel
#

didnt notice

#

oopsies.

#

gonna try this thing on factory horde

#

damn selling stuff is hard, I just want to collect everything, im such a horder

#

whats up with the red offers on flea

#

its so fucking annoying

fallen swallow
#

It's a bug

#

From changing the time thing

trim herald
#

I don't think it's related to that

#

A bunch of new people have been having issues with that shit

#

And I doubt someone who just got the game would know how to change their time

bold kernel
#

its very annoying i must say..

fallen swallow
#

No no no

#

The devs removed the time to put items on flea

#

That's where the bug came from

waxen forge
#

Yea I thinks that is where the red offer problems came from

bold kernel
#

im not the best with modding but if i wanna have a scope on that m4a1 what do i have to modify?

#

cant seem to put an ACOG on it

waxen forge
#

Nohting

#

It has a rail

trim herald
#

Oh, then agreed Brendan

waxen forge
#

Just put on a Valday or Elcan or somehting

#

I don't like ACOG....

#

Upgrade Workbench in Hideout. Then go to flea and examine every weapon and weapon part. That will give you full functionality of the EDIT PRESET function. You can swap parts in and out at will and the parts do not need to be in stash to use this feature as this is a “virtual build.” If you like what you made you can “save” it with a custom name and it will allow you to buy all the parts with the Assemble puzzle piece. Use cog wheel in buy parts section to determine if you only buy from traders or include flea offers.

#

can you still select spawn point with a map? do scavs not attach hatchlings? on multiple occasions now scavs didn't attack me

waxen forge
#

No cannot pick spawn

simple steeple
#

Hi, I just got the game fairly recently and was wanting to know about good starting points and other various tips

waxen forge
#

Scavs attack all PMC

#

@simple 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.

Youtubers are talking about a wipe, what is it ?

waxen forge

Game resets to as if it were the day you bought the game with big content updates

#

Next is "planned" for 5 months

#

Wipe are good

#

Those planned dates often change

fiery comet

yeh so the game doesnt get boring

I wish they would change beginner quests from customs

fiery comet
open lotus

I hate customs

#

Cloud do quests or something etc

waxen forge
#

@fiery comet As in if you are going on raid? Put meds in alpha

#

2 bandage and 2 cheese

#

Bandage stops bleeding...cheese heals health points

#

Do tasks

#

If you are brand new though

#

Then offline

fiery comet
#

no like inventory guns to sell etc

The obrez

whats thast

The crappy sawed off mosin

fiery comet

the one in my inv

You asked what to sell

#

Obviously I'm talking about the one in inventory.

fiery comet
#

the inf or the mosin

waxen forge
#

The one that is sawed off with the blue tape on it

#

Everything else is fine.

#

If you are going to use it...keep it...if not sell it.

#

Break weapons into parts and sell to Skier then rest to mechanic

Whats better: Teapot or 1P69 Sniper scope

dusky oar
#

hola

mighty mica
#

okay thanks

waxen forge
#

Top of my head probably teapot

bold kernel
#

Ok cause im mid raid lol

waxen forge
#

But right click and filter by item for both and check lowest flea price

bold kernel
#

Yeah i whish i could

waxen forge
#

Generally tech/'hardware/jewelry/statues sell for more than many weapon parts.

#

Optics are a variable though

bold kernel
#

3-10x Riflescope it is

waxen forge
#

Will need teapot for a task

#

Find in raid too

bold kernel
#

but how far into that task is the teapot necessary?

#

Or the person ur doin the tasks for

#

Which task mission is it?

waxen forge
#

Believe it's ragman...it's a bit down the road

bold kernel
#

Ok

waxen forge
#

Should be selling weapons and gear to traders Therpist>Skier>Mechanic

#

Only some items on flea

bold kernel
#

@bold kernel ik thats so annoying

waxen forge
#

It's because the tweaked a timer setting for flea

#

It bugged some stuff out

queen pier
#

can i join someone in a few raids just got tarkov trying to learn the maps

simple steeple
#

I dont know how but I made it out

karmic meadow
#

.366 FMJ is trash ?

bold kernel
#

@queen pier Sure

waxen forge
#

However only certain tech/hardware should be sold on flea.. really. Selling weapons and gear on flea is a waste of time most of the time.

simple steeple
#

So for offline raids none of the equipment you get comes with you?

waxen forge
#

Compare flea LOWEST price to therapist price for tech/hardware/jewelry/statues and then sell to best deal

carmine hearth
#

Whats the new cost-efficient 5.56 since m855/6a1 are like 700$+ p/bullet

waxen forge
#

For weapons and gear sell to traders

#

@simple steeple YOu lose nothing...gain nothing

#

@karmic meadow Yes

#

Don't use it..sell the weapon

karmic meadow
#

I can't use anything else beside 366?

No @simple steeple Gain NOTHING...lose nothing

carmine hearth
#

795 Roubles*

waxen forge

Yes but would you rather have a chance to kill someone quickly or not.

#

Go cheaper on gear/weapon but not cheap on ammo

carmine hearth
#

aye

#

rip ima just run a mosin

#

rip adar dmr

simple steeple
#

ah alright

#

Is there a good place to start map wise

mighty mica
#

how come i cant attach the srvv straight to my ak? do i need something else

fallen harness
#

Don’t cheap out on ammo, I did and I dumped 45 rounds into a guy before he finally died

carmine hearth
#

Why is everything so expensive now?

#

Like m855a1 used to be like 200 per bullet

#

and now it's 795-800

rich cloak
#

Because it's great ammo

#

And in a market you allways have to look at supply and demand

waxen forge
#

Did you remove the current muzzle device @mighty mica

mighty mica

Zhuk 6a tho

Yeah

bold kernel

i mean i got it for free from a scav

waxen forge

Yea I though that too

But it's not "bad"

No scav wears a zhuk

that was a player i looted it off of

for the introduction quest do you have to evac after you find the letter thing coz i found it and it didnt come in my invent so i assumed u didnt need to evac and went to go fight and died then tried to tourn in the letter and it didnt let me

trim herald
#

Yes

#

You need to get out

quasi crypt
#

for every quest item that you have to find you have to extract

waxen forge

It is a Task Specific item. ONce you pick it up you will find it in the Tasks tab

If you die with a task specific item you lose it and must pick it up again

What's the best cheapest gun I can run

trim herald
#

vepr 136

#

For value

surreal dragon
#

What kind of rounds?

quasi crypt
#

mosin/hunter are rather cheap as well

#

PS rounds minimum, 7.62

surreal dragon
#

K thx

trim herald
#

Get BP if you can

quasi crypt
#

BP would be better but they are expensive

trim herald
#

It's a semi auto rifle so you won't use a lot of rounds

surreal dragon
#

What's the average price for BP

quasi crypt
#

800-900 i guess?

trim herald
#

Ish yeah

surreal dragon
#

Oh and what helps to decrease the recoil on the guns

trim herald
#

Foregrip, stock

surreal dragon

Would muzzles help too?

quasi crypt

@surreal dragon this chart is handy especially if ou are new: https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics
my rule of thumb was when i started to never run ammo below 35 pen if possible(high chance of penetrating tier 4 armor)
especially now a lot of people run armor

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.

and watch the video jumping to 5:02. Trying to teach people to fish here...not just giving them fish.
Upgrade Workbench in Hideout. Then go to flea and examine every weapon and weapon part. That will give you full functionality of the EDIT PRESET function. You can swap parts in and out at will and the parts do not need to be in stash to use this feature as this is a “virtual build.” If you like what you made you can “save” it with a custom name and it will allow you to buy all the parts with the Assemble puzzle piece. Use cog wheel in buy parts section to determine if you only buy from traders or include flea offers.

What guns do you guys take on shoreline? Not just for the resort, the map in general

most maps the spawns are 50/50 left/right or top/bottom and you have to get to the opposite site

im really stuggling with this game. I love it but I just dont understand it enough i think. I am level 6, whenever i get into a fight i lose. no matter what. I cant complete any of the first tasks too

waxen forge
#

That's tarkov

#

Its a brutal steep climb

#

Takes persistence

trim herald
#

@frail thicket 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.

Multitasking

or read the description, helps often as well except for the really generic ones

bold kernel
#

even answers before you can ever come up with a question

outer kelp
#

Cheers

frail thicket
#

so if i go into offline mode, what happens with my gear if i die? and what happens to loot that i pick up during the raid?

quasi crypt
#

nothing, you lose nothing and gain nothing

#

no exp as well even if it shows you you received something

trim herald
#

It's a free run with no consequences @frail thicket

bold kernel
#

best way to test out guns learn maps and just get a grip on the environment

quasi crypt
#

but remember to enable scavs and set the AI to "as online" to practice spawns and so on

bold kernel
#

i set mine to horde mode just to practice having multiple ppl coming all at once lol

quasi crypt
#

can be fun as well^^
horde + as online ai + tagged an cursed
feels like a zombie game

never tried tagged and cursed tbh

hey guys, lets say i'd need help with learning the ropes of the game etc, would i just go in the Sherpa waiting room and hope that someone comes along and helps me? or do i just fill out the request on the eft site?

quasi crypt

you basically aggo all scavs on the map as soon as you aggro one

waxen forge
#

I am booked all day and every day til next weekend. Figure the others are as well

#

Or close to it

trim herald
#

Bud's a busy bee

waxen forge
#

@quasi crypt Not exactly

#

Bigger maps agro is proximity

#

Factory yes

#

But on many maps once you leave the area the scavs further away won't know what you did

good to know

what kind of suppresor is that good

trim herald

Any, if it's far enough away

bold kernel

oh lord lol

it only takes that one bullet to the right spot to drop you like a fly

open lotus
winter lantern
#

all of it

#

accept the 30 rounds maybe

open lotus
#

to traders?

bold kernel
#

what lvl are you

open lotus
#

6

bold kernel
#

best bet is to compare what traders are offering and then compare it to the flea

open lotus
#

flea is slightly better but people actually buy this?

bold kernel
#

of course

#

well man let me take that back

hallow thicket
#

is there an issue with matching rn

#

or does reserve just take a long time

bold kernel
#

since your at that level best bet would be selling to traders tog get your cost spent out the way for later down the road

#

the more you buy and sell to venders the faster you can get the spent money down so when you hit the certain level with them you dont have to worry about that part

#

just do the task and sell to them

open lotus
#

oh ok thanks

bold kernel
#

@hallow thicket have you posted in the support chat to see if anyone has the same prob?

rich cloak
#

Walls sell to traders unless you get way more in the fleamarket

weary badge
#

Is it true that if an armor vest is damaged it goes down in armor class?

trim herald
#

No

#

But it has a chance of not stopping a round

weary badge
#

Allright thanks

trim herald
#

So I recommend getting rid of armour when it hits around 75% of max durability

rich cloak
#

There more durability it has the better it stops bullets

#

@trim herald do you allways wear them down to 75 percent?

#

I usually sell my tactecs when they are at about 40

trim herald
#

After 75% of new max I get rid of them

#

Always

#

Sometimes I swap them before that, but usually 75%

wise glacier
#

red rebel icepick is not dropable right ? i.e. if i die i keep it ?

wait, do vendors sell a set amount of quality ammo to me as a player each reset?

frosty plinth

yes

well, specific ammo

#

some ammo is unlimted

forest steppe

like i saw skier has m855a1

frosty plinth

yup

but i thought that was for all players, not just me

frosty plinth

it's both

forest steppe

zealous eagle
#

What does it mean when a players name is green in the lobby

frosty plinth
#

he will sell you "x" amount, and he has a stock of "y" "y" is drained by all players until he resets

rich cloak
#

@zealous eagle it's a sherpa

forest steppe
#

ok so for example i might be able to always buy 60 rounds from him each reset

frosty plinth
#

yeah

forest steppe
#

wow i wish i knew this long ago

#

i coulda been stockpiling

#

im dumb

frosty plinth
#

well, most of those good ammos are locked behind higher levels for the traders

so it's most likely a new thing for you

or new-ish

@forest steppe I buy up the max of M80 and M855a1 every restock

Adar is a good starter rifle. I got a lot of them early on with scav runs. You can definitely buy one, but you may not want to get too attached to it.

how do i put this on

You need a mount

trim herald

@bold kernel If you get a M4 upper it won't really do anything to the rifle

what mount

trim herald

You need the lower to make it full auto, but then you've just got an M4 instead

Use the preset dude

bold kernel

The news years loot should have the mount somewhere in the items you carried over

You can pick more than 1 server???

it defaults to auto so it'll find the best ping vs matching time for you

the region locking has to do with where your computer is. As in if you have the NA copy, you can't bring your PC to Britian and play there without buying the EU copy.

hard storm
#

@vocal chasm I'm new too if you want to party up. I have a map up on my 2nd screen for extractions

torpid compass
#

Can anyone help me understand why I can never extract from any of the extracts on customs as a scav?

karmic meadow
#

double tap O to see your extracts

agile raft
#

you have to check which one you're supposed to take

torpid compass
#

i dont understand how to read that, when it says "exfil02" what extract is that suppose to be

karmic meadow
#

what's next to it

trail shadow
#

look up a map and it will show you specific exfils

torpid compass
#

im already out of game idk what was beside it

karmic meadow
#

What's the difference between AK-74/N/M

torpid compass
#

i spawned on the east side of map and checked every extract on the west side of map and none worked

agile raft
#

you had to double tap o

#

ill show you im loading in a scav

rich cloak
#

@karmic meadow N had a dovetail m has a folding stock

trail shadow
#

next time you go in double top o immediately and find those on a map

rich cloak
#

And stats are a tiny bit different

karmic meadow
#

So AK-74 has nothing from the above

rich cloak
#

Yrs

karmic meadow
#

Is it worth modding a stock 74 then

rich cloak
#

That's the basegunv

#

Yes

#

You don't need a dovetail

karmic meadow
#

got it thanks

trail shadow
#

rich cloak
#

Get yourself a pws cqb muzzel and a b10 handguard with a grip

#

@trail shadow try requesting a sherpa

trail shadow
#

mmm yes never though of that haha

agile raft
rich cloak
#

I could do a teaching reserve run at some point if there's interest In that

karmic meadow
#

pws cqb 74 or pws cqb normal

agile raft
trail shadow
#

^ good map

rich cloak
#

torpid compass
#

so railroad to military base is the north extract, but what is scavs checkpoint?

karmic meadow
#

aight

trail shadow
#

#

rich cloak
#

If you want to lower recoil even more you can get a zhukov s stock

#

Or a caa handguard

calm gust
#

if you have a task, does it que you only with people who also have that task?

trail shadow
#

dragon that would be helpful

torpid compass
#

calm gust
#

there were literally 4 dead bodies outside the room where I had to do my quest

trail shadow
#

Drago sorry

rich cloak
#

@trail shadow im gonna post about it at some point next week keep your eyes open

#

@calm gust no

trail shadow
#

rigid mulch
#

How do you flip an item in your stash

rich cloak
#

There is no matchmaking other than making sure you get grouped with pmcs

#

@ComeOnPanda#9170 r

open lotus
#

the army bag is so useless

rich cloak
#

Yes

trail shadow
#

are we allowed to pair up? is there a channel for that?

rigid mulch
#

Ty

rich cloak
#

@trail shadow like voicechannel?

#

Scroll all the way down for voicechannels

trail shadow
#

i mean just like for mlg

#

and go to own call or something

#

at least until they add voip

karmic meadow
rich cloak
#

Because people are weird @karmic meadow

karmic meadow
#

lol aight

valid rapids
#

What do wires, pliers and wrench do?

trail shadow
#

ty i didnt read through all of these

calm gust
#

@karmic meadow lots of market manipulation by bots

#

Market is pretty heavily inflated because of bots, and will be for a long time

trail shadow
#

upgrade hideout and build somethings

valid rapids
#

K thanks

karmic meadow
#

Thanks for the infos

rich cloak
#

@calm gust it is not anymore

#

With the removal of the timer most bots got fucked big time

calm gust
#

Everything is more expensive then before the timer change....

agile raft
#

what's a decent scope setup for the hunter?

#

Or do we just ironsight it?

alpine trout
#

@calm gust Which doesn't matter because you make more money too

#

@agile raft HAMR scope is very very gooood

#

you can attach a delta to it too

karmic meadow
#

455$ tho

alpine trout
#

If you want anything better than a PSO you're gonna be spending over 30k roubles anyway

lusty light
#

there is no outstanding evidence of any changes to the market due to bots

alpine trout
#

why not spend 45k and get a HAMR

lusty light
#

just speculation.

agile raft
#

this one then yeah?

alpine trout
#

Try to be cheeky and get one that has the 1x attached still for the same price

#

lol

#

people mistakenly list them with the sight still attached

#

so you can save 15k

rich cloak
#

@lusty light I feel like my personal market experience got better

blissful arrow
#

is there any sherpas that can help us?

alpine trout
#

I think you need a mount on your hunter too

#

I forget which one

rich cloak
#

@blissful arrow make a request

alpine trout
#

"Axion Cobra Mount" is a mount that'll let you attach a HAMR to a vepr hunter

rich cloak
#

Oh God

#

Hamr on a hunter

chrome swallow
#

i just got done with a raid and it said "reconnect", i tried and failed now i cant load into my stash because it just says i cant connect to servers and then it duplicates the menu screens floating light bulb. any ideas to try?

rich cloak
alpine trout
#

It's good dude

lusty light
#

oh mine did too drago 100%

alpine trout
#

it's legit good

rich cloak
#

@chrome swallow restart

alpine trout
#

just a bit large lol

lusty light
#

just saying people love talking like they know what they are talking about when they dont

rich cloak
#

@alpine trout hunter us pretty inaccurate tho

lusty light
#

bsg needs to release data or we dont have hard evidence of market manipulation

rich cloak
#

OK thanks for the info

alpine trout
#

HAMR has a large enough FOV and not huge zoom so it's still good for the hunter

chrome swallow
#

ive tried restarting but no luck, any other ideas like maybe a setting or something im missing out on?

alpine trout
#

imo

#

I like it

rich cloak
#

I mean you can do what you want

calm gust
#

@alpine trout If you are good at the game none of this matters.... it's more punishing for newer players if you rarely extract lmao

rich cloak
#

I just would use a m1a instead

alpine trout
#

@agile raft I should have asked how much zoom you want

wispy pond
#

can i get some beginner help?

rich cloak
#

@wispy pond 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
