@naive lion guess you did not start with hideout yet ;P

naive lion
#

I have loads of space for anything around 2x2 or below

#

nope

#

I upgraded the medbay only for that health per hour

tiny laurel
#

Ultimately you want all kinds of crates in multiple iterations , buying one is never wasted

cloud glacier
#

@tiny laurel well... buying lesser weapons crate is not so efficient as waiting to buy the big one tho... if you can manage to earn the money

shrewd bobcat
#

What is the step up from AK's, like what would be the next go to weapon AFTER AK's?

tiny laurel
#

Pistol crate ?

wraith jay
#

howdy what type of ammo i should use to sks idk what's best one

tiny laurel
#

@shrewd bobcat there is no before/after

#

!ammo

tribal robinBOT
wraith jay
#

thanks

cloud glacier
#

@tiny laurel no - just weaspon case. It is less storage efficient than THICC variant

naive lion
#

still saved me so much space

shrewd bobcat
#

@tiny laurel Well I just meant like what is a step up, like a Sa-58, ASVAL? VSS? M4?

naive lion
#
  • its potential for more profit
tiny laurel
#

Oh ok, but less expensive tho?

#

@shrewd bobcat honestly there isn't really a setup up or down, just different weapons for different usage, the real step up/down is on ammo

clever tapir
#

I just started and have my stuff from standard edition and I want to be sure that even if I take in a pistol each raid and die then I won't screw myself over much

cloud glacier
#

@tiny laurel yeah - that's why I said "if you can manage to earn the money" - I also own the smaller one for now. But eventually you don't want to have those earlier variants I guess

shrewd bobcat
#

Ammo is not the issue I just don't like AK's anymore lmfao

naive lion
#

Makarov costs around 6k

#

so you wont lose too much if you die with one

#

but I recommend you go to practice in offline mode first

cloud glacier
#

@clever tapir If all you lose are pistols you're fine - as long as you learn the map and the extracts. If you see that you die like 100% of times in your first games - do offline mode and learn the map first

naive lion
#

find exfils etc

tiny laurel
#

@shrewd bobcat then pick what you'd like to play, but weapons aren't "better" or " worse" by themselves , it depends what you use them from and with what ammo

clever tapir
#

I went into offline mode and killed a few scavs then extracted

tiny laurel
#

Just avoid .366

shrewd bobcat
#

@clever tapir I started a week ago and have around 10m rn, money isn't hard, play maps with high hidden stash amounts, interchange netted me like 4M yesterday just sticking to outskirts. 🙂

#

If you're really struggling, just scav, extract, sell, repeat.

clever tapir
#

Yeah I figured if I lose it all somehow then I can just do scav runs to get it back

naive lion
#

try and get level 5 before that tho

bold kernel
#

Alright made some money, wanna complete this loadout, what shall i add to it?

📎 unknown.png
naive lion
tiny laurel
#

Healing

shrewd bobcat
#

Suppressor on m4 if you want it? @bold kernel

#

What ammo are you firing?

tiny laurel
#

Just make sure you have m995 or m855a1 , and get heals + painkillers + alu splint

shrewd bobcat
#

M995 is 1k per shot but shreds t6 without thinking about it 🙂

tiny laurel
#

Would be sad to get out fully kitted and spend 20 mins limping on the first scav buklet

bold kernel
#

Thought about suppressor but the current loadout gives me more recoil stability, got 240x995 as ammo

shrewd bobcat
#

CMS kit.

bold kernel
#

Got a cms and heals on me aswell unfortunate ss

shrewd bobcat
#

IFAK, Painkillers or higher tier like morphine if you want.

tiny laurel
#

Good luck then

bold kernel
#

Not using it straight away, this will je my future labs gear once i found a proper squad just wanted to have atleast smth to choose from 🤔

#

Be*

tiny laurel
#

👍 this one will do the job

shrewd bobcat
#

What Tier is killa armour?

#

5?

bold kernel
#

Uhm i suppose so, lemme check in some mins when iam back at the pc

tiny laurel
#

Yes 5

bold kernel
tiny laurel
#

1 idak cld end up being short on a PVP labs run

shrewd bobcat
#

Can someone show me what you unlock for Level 4 therapist? Like what she sells?

honest tusk
#

Tbh running an alu splint is probs a better use of space in the gamma

Does anybody of you have that showcase of how all scopes look when aiming thru them?

runic echo
#

anyone know the value of dorm room 105 key?

#

just spawned in with it

brittle osprey
#

It's cheap

#

around 2k

#

I think

runic echo
#

ah ty

brittle osprey
#

@bold kernel if you go to the gamepedia and search for a scope / sight and bring the up the page for a specific sight it will give you a preview at the bottom

tiny laurel
#

Haven't checked but maybe in-game "notes" aswell

naive lion
#

is there a way to check for bartering trades that require certain items?

tiny laurel
#

Wiki the item

naive lion
#

that makes sense thanks, but what about flea market?

tiny laurel
#

I don't think anything else than checking those yourself

bold kernel
naive lion
#

why is sugar so expensive on the flea market?

tiny laurel
#

3M body armor

#

Sugar is used to craft moonshine, which is valuable for someth I don't rwmember

#

not sure if anyone may have made a list or not and i have tried looking on google but not much help there either but would anyone have a list or general meta to use for beginners, i honestly have no idea what weapons to take in or what to buy, havnt won many games or gotten out much gear either but a basic loadout would be awesome if someone had one and then i suppose i can work and figure stuff out from there

languid flare
#

And sending Scavs out, I guess

hexed basalt
#

im partly afk ( at work so any responses could you @ me or inbox )

mint hawk
#

@hexed basalt lul

#

@hexed basalt ak is usually the cheapest to run.. Just an easy foregrip. Many say the 7.62 vepr but I'd suggest one of the 5.45 ak's

granite rivet
#

do you really win games in this game? isnt it just making it out alive with goodies vs being shot in the face?

tiny laurel
#

@hexed basalt check out "budget builds" on YouTube and chose what you like, one thing, never cut the costs on the ammo, ammo is the most important

mint hawk
#

@granite rivet shooting others in the face is winning

granite rivet
#

when you put it that way rofl

mint hawk
#

The more players you kill, the less you have to worry about

tiny laurel
#

Getting out with 3 full kits when you entered with a mosin and 20 bullets is a win

mint hawk
#

I think I killed like 8 or 9 PMC on customs yesterday lul (in a single raid)

granite rivet
#

yesterday i killed 3 other pmcs with a pistol then someone with actual gear came up to clean up

#

i thought i would get out with some goodies

honest tusk
#

Yeh in situations like that its a gamble of risk/reward

hexed basalt
#

thanks for the info and tips @tiny laurel @mint hawk

honest tusk
#

Sometimes its better to cut your losses and getout

tiny laurel
#

@hexed basaltnp, don't thank me lul, this is channels for questions

mint hawk
#

When looting scavs. Only take gun, check pockets and bag..

hexed basalt
#

ive been using an sks but so unsure about mods, ammo to take etc. Started with so much stuff now i have next to nothing lol

tiny laurel
#

Sks isn't very good

#

I mean

hexed basalt
#

ill try ak though i do prefer using an AR

granite rivet
#

just make sure to do scav runs when they come up

tiny laurel
#

It will shoot the bullet, but for lower price you can get or customize a vepr km for better ergonomics/possibilities

granite rivet
#

doing them every so often keeps me in the positive and im getting some more experience with rando gear

hexed basalt
#

i might give that a go, see if there are any vids on vepr builds or something

naive lion
#

can lucky scav junkbox carry dog tags?

honest tusk
#

Dont think so

tiny laurel
#

@hexed basalt check "budget builds" on YouTube
Ultimately pick and try what you want to build yourself an opinion

#

Nop

bold kernel
#

Room 220 Key any worth ?

#

Just got in in my current raid

mint hawk
#

@bold kernel doubt it but it's for a skier task

naive lion
#

11k roubles on flea market I think

hexed basalt
#

if you put up an offer and just click it once should give you an avg price for it ( atleast this is what ive been told to do )

naive lion
#

I assume he's in raid and can't check it rn

tiny laurel
#

Use eft-loot.com for ruble value or check the wiki to see what's behind the locked door

hexed basalt
#

ive found a key and a lab card so far no idea what they are for but told to hold on to them haha

bold kernel
#

Thanks for the answer @mint hawk , rest

tiny laurel
#

@hexed basalt lab card = around 150+ l rubles, grants you 1 access to "the lab" map

mint hawk
#

@tiny laurel that is about 2 days delayed in prices

tiny laurel
#

Tell the new price then :)

mint hawk
#

Probably 6klul

#

SAN keys to already open doors are worth more

tiny laurel
#

Yellow lab keycard = 80k, all the other keycards are 500k to 20+mil

hexed basalt
#

the one i have is only white

tiny laurel
#

Lab access

hexed basalt
#

and also an RB-VO key with 25 uses

tiny laurel
#

180k

hexed basalt
#

not bad could use that then lol

tiny laurel
#

@hexed basalt godlike, marked room in reserve

hexed basalt
#

yep no idea what that is yet so i think ill just keep it left aside until i know what im doing haha

tiny laurel
#

Map reserve
There is 2 singlefloor barracks next to the train station,
The first one has a marked room with hella gear spawning

bold kernel
#

Yeah, i was in a raid and couldn't check it. Running low on money doing money runs. Had no ammo left on my pistol, sneaked my way behind a PMC, hit him in his face with a hatched got a graphic card and 2 vpx from him tried to bail out got 1 tapped by scav. Luckily had it stored in my gamma container 😂

hexed basalt
#

oooh maybe i might risk it and go in give it a go, cant hurt i suppose with 25 uses on it

mint hawk
#

@tiny laurel not really hella.. You can find a toz and chainlets in there

#

But can also spawn a Wcase life any other marked room

bold kernel
#

How do u Put IFAK'S to ur hotkeys, i tried dragging em but it wont let me D:

languid flare

hovering + number

cosmic fog

hello , so what the go with this stupid out of stock thing now .. they fixed the spam bidders but stuffed this part.. now i have sold out of belomo pk sights , its keeping 2 of my slots so now i can only sell 1 thing at a time for 3 fukin days ... and the remove button is glitched .

#

does smugglers boat only spawn at a certain time? and if so when

fast rivet
#

@bold kernel make sure its in your pocket or rig slot, then hover over it and press a number

languid flare
#

@bold kernel It only spawns sometimes

#

So not every raid

bold kernel
#

its on the list

#

but it has ???? next to it

fast rivet
#

its a gamble to see if it spawns or not

#

hence the ?????

bold kernel
#

cant see the baot either

#

I appriciate it @fast rivet , @languid flare

fast rivet
#

theres no boat

#

just the campfire is lit or not

bold kernel
#

if its on the list does that mean it will spawn eventually?

fast rivet
#

no

#

its a maybe spawn

#

some raids the campfires lit, others its not

#

if its not, haul your ass to the one without the question mark

mint hawk
#

@cosmic fog is a bug.. Just restart game.. Also.. Why u selling one for one.. Just tick the sell all similar

tiny laurel
#

@mint hawk or you can get stuff worth millions

mint hawk
#

@bold kernel boat is only for guys that spawn at the silos.. Smuggler boat is one use only so if someone beats you there it will be gone.. And smuggler boat is there from start of server

cosmic fog
#

@mint hawk no ifuked up , i purchased heaps from jaeger , trying to get my level from .19 to .20 and i listed them higher than his price so i cancelled it. i was selling like 37 or something like that . didnt list 1

frank current
#

what is the lockpicking thing?

wet moss
#

Can you buy eod, drop the gamma to a friend and reset your account and get one back for yourself?

bold kernel
#

thnx @mint hawk @fast rivet

mint hawk
#

@cosmic fog if you canceled it, t will be returned through messenger from ragman.

cosmic fog
#

yes it came back , but kept the selling slot in market

#

per image

frank current
#

@wet moss would be a bit cheaty if you ask me, as a mod if i would find that out i would ban the person giving out the containers, cuz that means you can sell them for real life money so that players get a bigger secure pouch of the bat whilst not having to pay 100 bucks

fast rivet
#

yeah i've had some weird bugs with the market

junior yacht
#

wait u can drop the secure container?!

#

and reset account??

mint hawk
#

@wet moss can't drop pouches in game.. Like literally cannot

#

@cosmic fog then restart will fix

#

People used to drop gamma for friends at start of wipe and then reset acc

junior yacht
#

did they fix it?

cosmic fog
#

roger , restarting ny friend

wet moss
#

Apparently you can if it's in your backpack before the raid and they don't have a secure container equipped

#

Or does that not work anymore either

mint hawk
#

@wet moss can't put it inside a backpack

cosmic fog
#

@mint hawk nope restart didnt fix bro 😦

wet moss
#

oh ok

#

I have a new friend playin and just thought that would be a good opportunity to upgrade and help him out

frank current
#

well yes, but actually no

mint hawk
#

@cosmic fog then you'll have to contact support for that bug.. If there are no items up on flea and just says no stock

cosmic fog
#

rgr

fast rivet
#

its getting so bad sometimes that you have to scroll to halfway to page 2 to get to an offer that isn't out of stock

mint hawk
#

@fast rivet set filter to quantity 1

wet moss
#

i guess u cant buy epsilon off flea anymore either

hollow terrace
#

@cosmic fog you will have to wait the end time

wet moss
#

so looks like oh well

mint hawk
#

@wet moss do the taskslul

cosmic fog
#

u have this bug as well , or is it something to do with the new system ?

wet moss
#

i suck too bad at the game

#

;o

frank current
#

can skills degrade / unlevel over time?

fast rivet
#

didn't have to a week ago

mint hawk
#

@frank current very slowly.. Almost no change

frank current
#

what is slowly

naive lion
#

does breaching doors ever work?

frank current
#

doesnt seem like it no

fast rivet
#

only if it isn't locked by a key, and you kick the right direction

frank current
#

hinges need to be on the other side

fast rivet
#

^

frank current
#

kicking in doors works great IRL though xD

naive lion
#

I see thanks

worldly sedge
#

mmmm, which of these chats is the one for LFG?

frank current
worldly sedge
#

oh

#

lol, didn't see that one

tiny laurel
worldly sedge
#

ahhhhhhh, that explains it! First time using a public discord really. Only ever used it for 2 way calls before.

tiny laurel
#

No worries

coral void
#

how come i cant use the red dot on the hammer sight im pressing rmb+lftcntrl and it wont switch

polar skiff
#

You need to put a reddot in to the sight slot on the hammer to use it.

coral void
#

ohhhh i thought it already had it, im dumb lol

polar skiff
#

Also switch the sigh switch to a mouse button, left control rmb is retarded and when you have to switch fast is just gonna kill you.

waxen forge
#

You can use the same key for more than 1 function based on press type as well. I have C as crouch and double tap C as check mag for example. With C on my mouse.

polar skiff
#

^ What he said really go trough your controls and try stuff out in offline.

coral void
#

another dumb question but when i use the red dot portion in hideout the bullet is hitting way lower then where i am aiming

polar skiff
#

The reddot is on top of another sight, basically you are aiming so far above your barrel that the shot is going to hit lower than the dot.

#

Honestly, id recommend going with a canted sight instead

#

Hammer is expensive and you can get a decent long range sight and a canted sight for less than the price of a hammer

thick harness
#

I just did a yolo factory for my last raid of the night. got a mosin with lps gzh. Got 3 thorax hits on a super geared PMC and only did 36 dmg to body but like 300 absorbed. What sort of armor would have that high vs lps?

coral void
#

there is something wrong with my game, if im in single fire mode and i click i see the charge handle go back but it does not fire :/

thick harness
#

sounds like a desync issue, try restarting

waxen forge
#

Is it a full auto weapon?

coral void
#

yes

polar skiff
#

@thick harness 4 - 5

coral void
#

must of been desync like the one guy said restarted and it works fine

thick harness
#

really? Ive 2 shot guys in tactecs before

#

im not really complaining just really surprised

#

lps gzh at point blank 3 to the chest

#

wouldve thought at least 150-200 dmg min

polar skiff
#

Depends, lps has 42 pen

thick harness
#

he was super beefy tho i couldnt tell what he had it was a crazy fight near the office

#

i know he had a drum mag on whatever he had lol

polar skiff
#

Don't think that is a guarantee on 4

#

Run a few rounds of SNB instead and keep some in your secure container if you are running armor busting budget runs

thick harness
#

was scav

#

just wanted to yeet some pvp before i got off

#

it gave me a mosin and a pilgrim lol

#

i was like shit this would be perfect if i wanted to loot

#

but imma do factory anyway

polar skiff
#

If you ever get M700 you can yeet some dudes

#

usualy if you get a M700 you get m62 with it

thick harness
#

yea i was with a guy earlier took him to shoreline for a loot run and he got m700

polar skiff
#

And m61 even*

thick harness
#

he had a guy trapped on the boat but got third partied

polar skiff
#

Tip is to look at playing with the M1A once you hit around 1.5 - 2 mil steady

cosmic fog
thick harness
#

i just burn through whatever guns i scavenge

cosmic fog
#

puts it on the line

thick harness
#

i cant remember the last time i bought a gun

#

and i have at least 10-15 in stash still

polar skiff
#

What level are you?

thick harness
#

as long as i buy some decent ammo i dont mind the gun

#

26

quasi breach
#

Many people say the gun doesn't matter, the ammo does. If you have the right ammo, every gun can be good

polar skiff
#

Should look at doing some standard sets instead, i ran like you a lot last wipe and lost not thanks to ammo but because i never got used to a recoil or a gun or a way to play.

cosmic fog
#

kinda , there is a thing called recoil that does even out great ammo to poor shooting

quasi breach
#

@polar skiff If you have trouble with recoil, test out guns in Offline mode or shooting range.

thick harness
#

im a single shot guy i click heads

#

i rarely use auto

quasi breach
#

some weapons that can be modded well are the Mp7, AS-VAL and m4

thick harness
#

even on full auto guns

quasi breach
#

and some AK's

polar skiff
#

Naw, that was last wipe 😄 @quasi breach

cosmic fog
#

i was , until i built a 32 /79 recoil m4

thick harness
#

i single shot all my AKs

cosmic fog
#

now im auto except over long shots

quasi breach
#

You should be making sure medium to short ranges is always on Full auto @thick harness

thick harness
#

i could argue against that, i got a paintball finger

#

my single can damn near get close to full auto

#

i hear your point tho for sure

quasi breach
#

Well, for slow firing weapons that is fine

#

but for something like an MP7

thick harness
#

oh yea

quasi breach
#

full auto is probably still faster

thick harness
#

i use those up on factory yeet runs

#

mag dump everyone lol

polar skiff
#

Again if you like tapping like a madman like me, look at the M1A, not to expensive, spits M80 or M61 if you really want to dump money in to ammo.

quasi breach
#

I haven't played in a while, but I can remember some stuff from back then lol

thick harness
#

Yep i got 2 nicely decked out m1as in my stash currently

#

i bring them out for my beefier runs

#

got both from players

polar skiff
#

Yeah its a great gun. you can get one from the fleemarket for 60K

quasi breach
#

Welp

polar skiff
#

flea*

quasi breach
#

I should start playing to get to 5 atleast

#

Yikes

polar skiff
#

How long ago since you played Haru?

quasi breach
#

A very very long time

#

Probably 2 wipes ago? maybe 3-4

polar skiff
#

Yeah they buffed the 7.62x51 ammo Not sure if you were around for that

quasi breach
#

let me just pull the game up

#

Let me pull it up rq

#

then I can tell you when I last played

#

Ah shit, it only shows me when I started this wipe

#

nvm

polar skiff
#

Ah well

quasi breach
#

But, I could cheese the discord

#

one sec

#

earliest message I could find

#

is 05.05.2019

polar skiff
#

Think the buff was trough then

quasi breach
#

Dunno

polar skiff
#

Anyway they cut trough armor up to gen 4 like butter now.

quasi breach
#

I noticed

#

lots of videos where people die in 1 hit lol

polar skiff
#

Hehe yeah, M61 cannot be stopped by any armor in the game atm

quasi breach
#

Well

#

To be fair, I am still

#

like a huge noob at the game

#

I know some specifics, but gamesense and shit like that, I am currently at like 1%

#

xd

#

Though I have yet to die in any raid

polar skiff
#

I got a pretty good percentage but yeah sometimes you just get rekt by lazer scavs or by surprise PMC

quasi breach
#

Well

#

I am trying to get to level 5

#

so I can do some cash grabs

#

to get me going

#

With my luck, even some cases I could get

#

But apparently, everytime, even if I take massive amounts of time

#

it just says

#

,,Run through''

#

Even when only like a minute left on the clock

thick harness
#

you need to get a minimum amount of xp

#

time doesnt matter

#

for run throug

quasi breach
#

^ I loot everything I can and try to kill everything I can

#

still counted as a run through for me

polar skiff
#

Yeah its a bit odd at times

quasi breach
#

Like grenades?

#

coughs

night crag
#

I never got a run through with a kill

quasi breach
#

To be fair, I didn't get kills in the raids, didn't come across anyone, not even scavs

night crag
#

Well then, you went through it lol

quasi breach
#

I took my sweet time and looted, but I guess that counts as a run through

waxen forge
#

It's XP not time

night crag
#

What map

quasi breach
#

Mainly Customs

#

started with the map and so far play it the most

night crag
#

That’s fine

#

Just go to storage, customs(the area in the map) construction, all around the east side of the map where there a few big warehouses

#

You’ll find scavs there

#

Get some exp level up

naive lion
#

can you directly upgrade stash space without upgrading your version of the game?

undone hazel
#

can anyone reccomend something for spotting people more easily?

night crag
#

@naive lion through hideout yes

#

@undone hazel practice? Lol

#

Or just buy a thermal sight lulW

quasi breach
#

@naive lion Cases

#

Magcase, Junkbox, Weapon Case etc

#

Though you need to do quests for that or spend the money

naive lion
#

I know about cases I'm just asking about the stash

blazing kite
#

@austere granite try offline mode. once you know a map well and where scavs will usually be spawned and patrolling you will know the areas where players would be and will see them easier

night crag
#

Like I said it’s through the hideout but I think it’s quite costly @naive lion

naive lion
#

yep

night crag
#

Not something to do as you start

naive lion
#

3,500,000 Roubles
1 Handdrill
7 A pack of screws
4 WD-40 100ml.'

#

rip

#

guess I'm sticking to cases in the meantime

night crag
#

I mean cases are not that much cheaper lol

#

Depends what case

#

But yeah you should probably start with a scav junk box

#

It’s 1.4m and you can put all your random barter items into it

naive lion
#

I don't suppose the materials are cheap?

night crag
#

For the junkbox?

quasi breach
#

^ The materials you can easily farm yourself

#

If you mean the hideout thing

naive lion
#

yeah its just the 3.5 mil thats hard

quasi breach
#

Tbh, there's tactics

naive lion
#

but the extra 100 squares of space seems very worth it

quasi breach
#

where you get like 300-500k per 2-3 minute runs

#

But dunno if that is true

naive lion
#

I don't think I can do that very effectively

quasi breach
#

I mean

naive lion
#

I'll just play normally

quasi breach
#

There's a tactic where you only need a melee weapon

#

and run through

#

but, you'd need a container for that

waxen forge
#

Hatchet is not a good idea

quasi breach
#

^ I was specifically mentioning a strat there

naive lion
#

80% of my profits came from the past 3 days

quasi breach
#

It's obviously not a good idea, just there's a strat for that kind of stuff

naive lion
#

by killing high level geared players

polar skiff
#

Interchange scav runs usualy are good for a quick 300K ish go trough the large stores, loot fuel and filters and stuff things people just walk by

naive lion
#

You should start man, I started a few days ago and it’s great

@final meadow honestly I just do the trade with prapor(?) with the batteries for the mosin with the scope when I wanna go mosin or just put that scope on it

is there a way to see what is compatible with my weapons beside right clicking and inspecting everything. In the traders trying to find what ammo i can use and literally have to right click everything just to see what caliber it is

celest condor

9x19mm Ammo is all pretty weak. If you have money you can go AP 6.3 for some a little armour piercing, Luger or RIP for high flesh, or go cheap with PST.

waxen forge

quasi breach
#

so AP, Luger or RIP

#

alright

night crag
#

Yea I think RIP and going for legs would be the way

celest condor
#

@hexed basalt ammo caliber is shown in the guns thumbnail. You really should check ammo charts to see what is a decent ammo for the gun though.

#

Alternately you can use linked search on the guns magazine to see what is compatible. But be careful with that one. I know at least the 7.62x39mm and .366 ammos use the same magazine but are not interchangeable in the gun.

could you possibly link me to an ammo chart? and when in the traders i dont see the caliber in the thumbnail at all just shows the price

guys, how to change scope magnification while holding LMB?

celest condor
#

holding???

#

Did you change your key binds

hollow terrace
#

Yes, i use "continuous"

celest condor
#

yeah need to rebind change retiucle and switch sights then.

blazing kite
#

side mouse button works well for that

celest condor
#

DOn't think defaults work with continuous.

#

I moved mine to side mouse buttons and I LOVE it.

hollow terrace
#

thanks guys. I use walk/breath on then, but i will change too.

celest condor

I do not suggest using continuous specifically because of the issues with changing reticles nd switching sights

I always used continuous on PUBG/CS1.5/CSGO etc.. etc..

@glad galleon specific questions are easier.

night crag

Random questions, what kind of controls did you guys change? Just out of curiosity

blazing kite
celest condor
#

@waxen forge Has a nice little spiel about resetting expectations and so on, but Iam not a god like him.

glad galleon
#

So

thick harness
#

change your drop/discard button

#

will help speed up looting

glad galleon
#

When i crouch and aim i automatically stans up

night crag
#

I think that’s the only thing I changed so far

thick harness
#

i also changed my variable scope change

#

from alt+click to a 4th mouse button

#

and my slow walk from caps to a 5th mouse button

#

but all preference at that point

celest condor
#

@night crag Grenade to double tap, show exits as a single tap O, sight controls (change reticle, switch sights) to thumb buttons on mouse, toggle tactical device and turn tactical device on/off on mouse buttons as well.

#

Other than that I am default.

night crag
#

Yea I think I’m gonna change the zoom button for the sights as well

celest condor
#

oh, check magazine and delete I bound to some extra keys I have near my pinky.

night crag
#

Why double tap grenade?

celest condor
#

@glad galleon Did you change any of the default controils

blazing kite
#

in case of accidental G press

thick harness
#

this man defintely blew himself up on accident

lol

glad galleon

Yes

double tap G so I don't accidentally blow me or teamates up.

G is right next to F after all.

I don’t know G is kinda far never had that problem but maybe it’s something waiting to happen lol

glad galleon
#

Crouch to ctrl

celest condor
#

@glad galleon Check your keybinds. You messed something up there if you are standing when aiming. Only think I can think of.

glad galleon
#

Continously and with aim

celest condor
#

@night crag I have never done it by accident, but I have seen it.

night crag
#

If you have crouch on hold on CTRL I imagine it will interfere with quite a few stuff

celest condor
#

Best was my son and another guy in the labs red keycard room... door closed and dropped an F-1 in there with them.

thick harness
#

oof

night crag
#

There’s a lot of controls that are ctrl+something that you gonna do by accidents

#

Lmao smurf

celest condor
#

I suggest learn with default controls and slowly change things.

night crag
#

It’s either that or change all the ctrl+something to c+something if you’re set on having ctrl as crouch

celest condor
#

oh and I also moved my melee weapon key to K, just to get it our of the way. I have pressed V by accident on enough occasions to move it.

#

And in a fight when I want to crouch, I don't want to pull out a knife by mistake 🙂

dusty yew
#

Hello

#

Someone?

celest condor
#

@dusty yew Hello Melody

dusty yew
#

Hello, I just got the game yesterday, and I have some questions.

#
  1. I played 6 games, and in all them I died. I almost have no weapons in my inventory for playing with weapons. What happens if I lose them all?
#

P.S.: No money also.

night crag
#

Do you know what your scav is?

#

Like what’s the concepts of doing a scav run

dusty yew
#

No, I just started yesterday night. I know I can play with my profile or with a bot (with weapons)

final meadow
#

scav runs

night crag
#

Because it’s basically a risk free run, you drop in as a scav with random gear. Scavs won’t attack you unless you attack them and if you leave you keep whatever you found

dusty yew
#

But if I play with the bot guy (like, with weapons, not mines), if I scape I get those weapons to my soldier too?

#

But my questions are:

#

How to know who is scav ? Also, how to exit the map? I never find the point.

night crag
#

When you finish a scan run you get the option to transfer the stuff from him to your stash, everything

next kraken
#

Yeah playing as a scav is essentially free loot

night crag
#

You should watch some beginner videos melody

#

To get the basics

dusty yew
#

Ok. Where do you recommend me to play firstly? Factory or Wood?

night crag
#

Then stop by for more questions since it’s pretty much the basics

next kraken
#

I would recommend looking at the wiki for the map you play on, there are maps that will show you your exits

night crag
#

Customs @dusty yew

next kraken
#

Not factory at the beginning

dusty yew
#

Alright, Customs then .

night crag
#

Customs and maybe after interchange

dusty yew
#

One last question

next kraken
#

Customs is good, woods is also pretty chill but very open

clever tapir
#

what do i want to do with starting rubles?
save it? buy meds? weapons? ammo? hideout?

dusty yew
#

I have the map from internet, but no idea where I am deployed, so I can't know where I have to go... just orientation?

clever tapir
#

with customs you will either spawn east or west and that's about all i've figured out so far

final meadow
#

yeah, after a while you will learn the maps

#

and will know where you are

next kraken
#

Yeah, you’ll have to learn the maps a little; I’d recommend watching a couple extract videos or running offline without bots

final meadow
#

for now, do a few offline games

dusty yew
#

Okaay, so I just have to play as Scav, right?

final meadow
#

scav runs for money

#

offline games to learn maps

dusty yew
#

How to know who is Scav? And with Scav I have to Escape also or just wait till time finishes?

next kraken
#

You can also run offline, there’s no pressure and you can learn the map a little

final meadow
#

thats what I did like a week ago and it helped me a lot 🙂

night crag
#

@dusty yew watch videos man really it will help a lot, watch customs basics videos, you’ll know where you are after a little bit

next kraken
#

You can’t really tell who is a scav super reliably, but they’ll talk to you in Russian etc

grizzled fjord
#

AI scavs move in a very robotic fashion. Scanning left to right slowly with their gun as they move

next kraken
#

You can observe them being more robotic, they don’t sprint etc

dusty yew
#

Alright 🙂

#

Thank you all

#

Very appreciate!!

clever tapir
#

i can usually tell who is a scav because i'll hear angry russian yelling and then get domed from god knows where

dusty yew
#

hahaaha

fickle gyro
#

an instant headshot is normally an indicator of a scav.. -

dusty yew
#

Thanks you all! It was useful... I lost all my stash but I will recover it somehow

clever tapir
#

turning a corner and my head is taken off :c

final meadow
#

my first two games of tarkov ever were about losing lots of stuff together with a bunch of friends to npcs scavs while thinking they are players 😛

#

we also tend to shoot each other

next kraken
#

One of the things I do is scav runs on reserve at night when I have no money

clever tapir
#

earlier i was having a decent run until a scav instantly blacked my leg and it went downhill from there

final meadow
#

but a week later, I feel much more comfortable

dusty yew
#

But playing as Scav is a bit limited, right?

final meadow
#

and got a few mil rubel

dusty yew
#

Just one game every 20 mins?

next kraken
#

In the last 10 minutes there’s like no one left on the map

clever tapir
#

yeah so do a scav run and then do an offline run and then a scav run

dusty yew
#

Ok! I got it!

next kraken
#

Yeah, but you usually run PMC in between

dusty yew
#

Thnx!!!!

clever tapir
#

and figure out the maps

dusty yew
#

Woow... thank you so so much

next kraken
#

No worries!

blazing kite
#

In offline mode you should be able to clear a map from start to exit about 10 times or so and you would be ready for online matches @dusty yew

I just died to a team of duo while I was pretty juiced up while I was trying to do my quest, I dont know what I am supposed to do. Why are duos at the shore of shoreline at 18 minutes?? Whats the point??

clever tapir
#

to kill people and take their loot

bold kernel
#

at the shore of shoreline?

#

really?

blazing kite
#

Its close to the extract near tunnel. people waiting for last minute exits and people going to barge

bold kernel
#

So when I'm supposed to go there? because early no, late no, to go there mid raid I have to move early so also no

#

the only time I managed to go there I was with only a pistol and it backfired because I died from scavs lol

blazing kite
#

Clear the area and then move in

sullen kindle
#

Is farming part 4 worth it ? Or farming questline in general ? The GPU are so expensive and he wants 6x

bold kernel
#

thats what I was doing, but idk maybe I'm not good enough to take on a duo by myself

blazing kite
#

duos or more can be a challenge. you kill one and have to worry about the other now. its normal

bold kernel
#

I'm pretty sure I sprayed that dudes head and chest with my bt ammo but he didnt flinch and he headshotted me with ease, like I wasnt firing at him

blazing kite
#

check your hit and damage counts at the end of raid screen. many people feel like they are doing headshots and all that but usually wiff

fiery fractal
#

Man you guys got any tips for making long treks to an extract point? I find myself getting caught out quite a bit

blazing kite
#

stay to the outside walls and travel the long way maybe

bold kernel
#

I think I'm just not gonna touch this game again until I literally play every raid in a duo or more, waste of time otherwise

fiery fractal
#

Solo is quite boring when you’re not sure how to play.

#

Don’t know where any of the hotspots are

blazing kite
#

dous and more can be even more difficult

fiery fractal
#

Duos I feel is fine but more then that is hard to coordinate

#

But even duos you have to make constant call outs so you don’t shoot your buddy

bold kernel
#

you have literally double the firepower and you can flank people, theres no downside if you have decent communication skill

sullen kindle
#

Idk I really feel like this game is " fair " to solo and duo compared to other games ,you can easily ignore fights as solo if you see a duo, if you engage well then there is no reason to cry about your actions, but that's just imo then again I always " lone wolf " games

blazing kite
#

Offilne is the easiest way to figure stuff out. you can be free to try things and not worry about players interfering. learn the map, looting, shooting your gun. then go online and use the skills

fiery fractal
#

Does offline use resources?

celest condor
#

@bold kernel Need to share loot in a team. More noise.

waxen forge
#

Offline is nothing gained...nothing lost

bold kernel
#

I know the locations of shoreline, I just didnt know that pmc duos where at shore at 18 minutes, and to do the quest I need to be in the open for 30 seconds not moving so tough luck

fiery fractal
#

Hmm ok, one of my main issues is that the hotspots I’m familiar with atm I don’t want to go into alone

blazing kite
#

shoreline isnt that long to begin with so PMCs at 18 minutes sounds normal

#

all map times have been reduced

bold kernel
#

I should've just ran and extract and try the quest next map

#

still feels like shit

#

I want to play duo everygame

sullen kindle

Quests in the game are so stressful uhkilla

#

Especially if you are like me standard edition scrub trying to get a better secure container soontm

#

But then when you get a quest done it's like GoodUsec

celest condor
#

@bold kernel One of the guys I play with, I taught him how to play the game. He refused to play the game solo. This was near end of last wipe. Now he is higher level than me, 2 tasks away from his Kappa and is essentially better than me.
Playing solo can be intimidating. But just keep at it and slowly the game just clicks.

honest tusk
#

Yeh once you can play solo well it will inevitably improve your duo game too

clever tapir
#

i can't group with people :c

#

solo forever unfortunately

celest condor

@celest condor docs can also hold money, but not skulls and some other stuff. For 3 mil is it worth it

clever tapir

i can't call anything out and they can't confirm if i'm their teammate

@tribal cove I have one sicc case. I use it for shoreline keys simply because I had more than 16 keys, I had 20 keys before I gave them to my son for his key set and sicc case.
For me tat is the only reason to have a sicc case.
If you hint PMCs and collect dogtags, then it can be useful for that since sicc cases can hold dagtags.

clever tapir
#

doesn't let me select oce unfortunately

@clever tapir Don't need to select same servers. Game lobby is global and you will connect to the party leader servers. Ping be damned.

  • a CMS maybe?
waxen forge
#

yea that'd be perfect

amber saffron
#

i would take a CMS but i noticed i dont use it that often

waxen forge
#

I'd say yes to CMS but didn't know if he had one or the funds

quasi crypt
#

if someone blacks your leg 4 painkillers are gone really fast

amber saffron
#

and i only take it when im going in for pvp fights or killing scavs/farming xp

next kraken
#

God I need eod

quasi crypt
#

and then you have an issue

next kraken
#

I need that gamma

waxen forge
#

My gamma is CMS, sicc, ibuprofen, ifak/salewa, and usually 2 stacks of ammo

amber saffron
#

i dont usually take a cms on money runs

hello anyone wanna help a newbie out?

golden mesa
#

Hey guys, i was just wondering if the health resort keys are worth it. I have like 4 of em, and they all seem to be worth 100-400k. Im solo an pretty bad so idk if its worth going to one of the most (if not the) busiest places in Tarkov. Should i just up and sell them?

waxen forge
signal lynx
#

ok

open lotus
#

Every time I get shot I get one tapped so I don’t think there’s a point of bringing meds

celest condor
marble blade
#

@open lotus you get one tapped because players have so good ammo, make sure you use tier 4 armor or 3 for scavs

celest condor
#

@open lotus bare minimum meds, bandage and painkillers.

#

A bleed will eventually kill you. And nothing worse than limping across a map to your exit.

marble blade
#

i always get car medkit, painkillers aaand 1 splinter

quasi breach
#

The tasks you have to do with your PMC right?

dapper sparrow
#

hi, how do you differentiate between what to keep, what to sell to dealers and what to sell on the flea market?

celest condor
#

@quasi breach Mostly . There are some tasks where you have to collect items. Those you can do as a scav and it is still considered found in raid.

quasi breach
#

Alrighty

celest condor
#

@dapper sparrow Experience mostly. For now loot everything and compare sales prices fromtrader to flea. Look at trades you can make with items and then decide from there.

amber saffron
#

aight i added an ifak now

dapper sparrow
#

@celest condor i also cant even use flea market without a certain item, how do u get those?

amber saffron
#

im ready to go to interchange 😎

celest condor
#

Also one mans garbage is another mans treasure... I collect USB chargers, 8 of them gives me an M1A

quasi breach
#

Isn't flea market at level 5?

#

Or do you need an item now?

celest condor
#

Level 5

#

@dapper sparrow what level are you?

amber saffron
#

you know what

quasi breach
#

@dapper sparrow You just have to get to level 5, no item

amber saffron
#

i might as well add a CMS

dapper sparrow
#

every single deal u wanna make on Flea Market u need an item called Alyonka @celest condor

marble blade
#

when you find a modded weapon should you take it apart and sell that way?

amber saffron
#

how often do you all find yourselves using a CMS?

quasi breach
#

@dapper sparrow Those are people mostly trying to scam

celest condor
#

Remove the ALyonka filter along top of screen

dapper sparrow
#

oh lol

ocean burrow
#

if i toss my shit right before the raid timer hits 0 will i get it back on insurance?

celest condor
#

You just have a filter in your search

grizzled fjord
quasi breach
#

They want you to trade Alyonka for their items

marble blade
#

@ocean burrow yes

quasi breach
#

Which is usually more than what they list

celest condor
#

See my current filters. Click the little x to remove the filter.

quasi breach
#

If you scroll down past ,,Aprox. (price)'' there's listings with just the price @dapper sparrow

next kraken
#

I’m getting tired of having to extract from factory

dapper sparrow
#

ah i see

next kraken
#

I’m just too bad lmao

marble blade
#

factory=camping fest

quasi breach
#

Other than that you can just filter ,,Exclude Bartering listings'' @dapper sparrow

dapper sparrow
#

where is the filter option? @quasi breach

celest condor
#

Also helps to remove batering offers. Do that by clicking the gear and seeing filter options.

quasi breach
#

The cog @dapper sparrow

celest condor
#

beside my offers

dapper sparrow
#

thanks!

next kraken
#

Probably just going to start running Hatchling

elder crypt
#

Honestly as new player the best place I've gone for looting is reserve. I've had a lot of success there surprisingly.

next kraken
#

And just run through and not even bother trying to make money

dapper sparrow
#

just 1 more quick question: I have Terragroup lab keycards, sell to dealer, keep or flea market?

next kraken
#

I’d say flea at this stage

quasi breach
#

@dapper sparrow Keycards go well in the flea market

dapper sparrow
#

cool thx

quasi breach
#

You can sell them for more than the Dealer price

next kraken
#

I’m pretty sure you have to be geared for labs

dapper sparrow
#

dealer already 55k hnnnggg XD

quasi breach
#

^^

dusty yew
#

One question, there is a way for playing with some of you or friends? I would like to learn playing this game.

honest tusk
#

Flea for the big profits off of cards

next kraken
#

Flea will give you like 200k

dapper sparrow
#

omg

#

awesome

honest tusk
#

Its closer to 180k now

dapper sparrow
#

im rich 🤣

honest tusk
#

Still big profit

quasi breach
#

@dusty yew When you select a map you just click next until you get to a tab where your character is shown and names.

next kraken
#

@dusty yew just add people in game, and when you go to play

quasi breach
#

Anybody who is looking for groups you can select there

next kraken
#

^^^^

quasi breach
#
  • you can add people
next kraken
#

This guy beat me

dusty yew
#

Alright, thank you @quasi breach @next kraken

quasi breach
#

well, 8 or so months I was gone

#

but I still got the sauce

onyx hollow
#

Should I avoid tasks because they ruin my rep with other traders or should I just do them?

tropic musk
#

@next kraken many times i add player from the list, they just killing on the spawn

next kraken
#

Yeah it sucks

#

Generally better if you know the person you’re adding haha

upper iron
#

waxen forge
tropic musk
#

@waxen forge thanks

dusty yew
#

One last question (sorry), what happens if time goes out? Because I don't find extract point? I am extracted automatically or I just lose everything?

onyx hollow
#

You lose

#

MIA

harsh ibex
#

i killed a guy wit this an avs and some nightvision shid so i extracted. is it good?

📎 unknown.png
onyx hollow
#

Never play night but I believe nightvision is quite profitable

#

Check flea market

harsh ibex
#

k

onyx hollow
#

And let me know, I'm curious xD

upper iron
#

apparently it's like 100-200k for a nightvision set or smth

#

someone told me

harsh ibex
#

its like 35k

#

but the adapter and stuff altogether is 50k

onyx hollow
#

Is an electric motor worth the inventory space guys?

#

That's OK teletubbie

cosmic sand
#

Where do i get the baul bauls?

onyx hollow
#

Not great but aight

past lodge
#

@onyx hollow it;s wirth 40k to 50k. That's 10k a slot. So, that's usually worth it.

#

It's also a base upgrade item.

#

So...depends on if you need it? Like, I'd take it.

onyx hollow
dusty yew
#

There is an option for not waiting 20 mins from Scav ride to Scav ride?

onyx hollow
#

These are the things I have now

#

Idk the worth of bleach or other cleaning products

#

Worth keeping?

amber saffron
#

your gun

blazing kite
#

if you are over level 5 and have the flea market just right click and filter by item to get prices

amber saffron
#

has no ammo

#

you will die

rocky ocean
#

@dusty yew upgrade Intelligence Center
lvl 1 -15%
lvl 3 -20%
total -35%

onyx hollow
#

im just manouvering to extract

radiant abyss
#

Yeah, I'd get out with that, especially without ammo

amber saffron
#

^

onyx hollow
#

Scav spawned with 10 siaga bullets xD

radiant abyss
#

VSS is worth a bit I think

left vapor
#

80k

amber saffron
#

VSS best gun

#

i always use the VSS

left vapor
#

your helmet is worth alot

amber saffron
#

with sp6

#

helmet is like 30k?

#

vss is 40-50k

onyx hollow
#

yeah pretty succesfull scav

#

Im glad I still had 2 bullets and A friendly AI to kill this guy with the empty VSS

#

VSS has supress too so might be worth smth good :>

rocky ocean
#

its good 😄

onyx hollow
#

My scav runs are better then my normal runs 😦

rocky ocean
#

i had the same experience but it swapped over later ^^

#

vss is 40-50k in fm atm

onyx hollow
#

I gotta stop being scared, takes me a while

#

Ayyy Ill take it

signal lynx
#

that feeling when you haven't extracted once after 10 games

rocky ocean
#

just get more comfortable with maps ect

onyx hollow
#

Yeah I'm just grinding customs atm

meager girder
#

is it ever worth it to breach a door when pushing someone? When?

onyx hollow
#

I never do it because its way to fucking loud

rocky ocean
#

there are some doors which you can only breach in to get in

meager girder
#

Right but im talking specifically about pushing a room someone is in already

rocky ocean
#

im not sure if you kick in a door that you cant evade to left or ride side if someone is already waiting for you

meager girder
#

thats what i was thinking

rocky ocean
#

you can open doors normally and walk left or right

#

to avoid bullets to the face

meager girder
#

So the answer is no?

#

nver breach when pushing

past lodge
#

You need a flashbang or grenade.

rocky ocean
#

i can check it sec

onyx hollow
#

Yo those motors are 50k

rocky ocean
#

yea

onyx hollow
#

I did me like a 300k scav run on customs

#

😄

rocky ocean
#

electric motors are always good to take

#

but they take 4 slots

onyx hollow
#

Yeah true

#

I think i just tossed like 4 tape for it or smth

rocky ocean
#

@meager girder just checked it do not breach

#

you cant move

#

you can always move when you open a door

meager girder
#

ok thanks

rocky ocean
#

you can even walk with the door

meager girder
#

appreciate it

rocky ocean
#

if you breach you stuck to the animation until the door is open fully

#

best is open the door normally walk to the side while opening and throwing nade / flash in

#

or with teammates one opens the door and the second guy just games right in

stoic sentinel
#

what happens when i shoot someone in the chest trough someones arm

#

because i just did that with a mosin and he didnt die

rocky ocean
#

does he had a armored vest / rig?

stoic sentinel
#

no

#

we found him outside the building dead "killed by sakaali"

#

it was a 1-shot mosin round

rocky ocean
#

without a vest you should 1 tap kill him in the chest

#

which ammo did you use lps?

#

doesnt even matter i think all bullets for mosin should one tap

#

in the chest without armor

left vapor
#

they do

#

it probably penetrated his arm > went through his chest > went through his other arm

stoic sentinel
#

no they dont

#

only 7n1 and lps 1-shot

left vapor
#

lol

#

ok

stoic sentinel
#

and t-46

onyx hollow
#

That's a lot of penetration oof

stoic sentinel
#

damage absorbed by armor 0

left vapor
#

you hit is arm

#

lol

stoic sentinel
#

that was the original question

#

"lol"

.-.

vagrant mirage
#

at what range should I start using slugs in this game?

left vapor
#

you didn't hit his chest

rocky ocean
#

^

stoic sentinel
#

well clearly did because he died after 5 seconds on his own

#

found him after posting the question

left vapor
#

bleeding?

#

that's a thing

#

anyways, dropping it

#

@vagrant mirage if you can, don't use slugs

vagrant mirage
#

why not?

waxen forge
#

If you can don't use shotguns period

#

I only use them when the task forces me to do so

vagrant mirage
#

but the mp153 is pretty good with the high firerate

fiery fractal
#

Any tips on solo runs?

waxen forge
#

Not really

vagrant mirage
#

and I always get it back from insurance

waxen forge
#

Because nobody wants it because shotgun doesn't penetrate armor. That's why you get it back. It's kinda telling.

@fiery fractal Positioning and audio.

Know that map. Know where to expect to find PMC and scavs and how they will move throughout the map.

vagrant mirage
left vapor
#

@vagrant mirage I mean, MP153 is really good, yeah, but the problem is you will take so many shots to kill someone with gear when you compare it to high end M4 / Fall / AK bullets

#

it isn't really worth it if you can afford those bullets
