@ancient falcon not if you play offline

ancient falcon
#

aight cool

#

need to know the map first

tardy pond
#

Id recommend starting on customs and learning that map, theres a few good maps out there to keep open on your second screen, or just learn it through offline mode

bold kernel
#

@red halo no worries man you will get everything back at some point just keep playing

ancient falcon
#

why is the lab expensive? it is guaranteed best loot?

tardy pond
#

Yeah gear isnt that important once you get the hang of thw game, it comes and goes

red halo
#

@tardy pond i mean not ALL of it, but it gives you a sinhle ak47, and a set of some pistols. so no ak, backpack and chest rig gone

bold kernel
#

it has some great loot but also a lot of super experiences and geared players go there

#

so its very very high risk

tardy pond
#

Have you not done any scav runs? @red halo

ancient falcon
#

oh ok I'd need heaps of armor

red halo
#

not really sure how. i just clicked "escape from tarkov" and then picked a place.

bold kernel
#

not just gear but also experience

tardy pond
#

Okay

red halo
#

literally downloaded yesterday

bold kernel
#

@red halo you can reset your account

tardy pond
#

Press the escape from tarkov button, and it brings you to a screen with

#

Pmc and scav

red halo
#

😮

ancient falcon
#

overall visiblity lowest?

red halo
#

best news ive heard all day lol

bold kernel
#

but you can only do it a certain amount of times i think, like once every two weeks?

tardy pond
#

A scav is a randomly generated character that you use for that one raid, you can get some gear and extract and keep it for your pmc

bold kernel
half jackal
#

you might not be able to

red halo
#

oh! yeah. i just used me pmc. i was wondering what the scav timer was for

half jackal
#

iirc theres a 2 week cooldown

#

just run scavs

#

extract with the gear and use it on your PMC

#

the beginner gear is pretty to look at as a new player - but its actual value can be looted in 1-2 runs if you know what to do

#

same with scav gear - its really cheap once you figure some things out - so dont be afraid to use it

red halo
#

why is there a timer anyway for the scav?

half jackal
#

so people aren't spamming scav only

bold kernel
#

youd never play your pmc otherwise

red halo
#

that makes sense

half jackal
#

theres also chances for your scav to spawn with rare items (keycards/expensive keys/etc) they'd have to get rid of this if scav timer didnt exist

#

otherwise market would be ruined

bold kernel
#

scav is nice because it gives your character time to heal after a raid

spark hawk
#

Also scav and pmc xp is separate

bold kernel
#

if you cant afford meds

tardy pond
#

I've always enjoyed that if you dont instantly die in a raid you can cycle between a scav run into pmc into scav etc

bold kernel
#

yep

#

what helm is a decent tier

#
  • facemask
#

as in facesheild

amber saffron
#

airframe

#

exfil

#

wait do you want headset?

tardy pond
#

How much do airframes go for?

bold kernel
#

is there a lower tier

#

before that

amber saffron
#

tier 3

urban summit
#

what budget gun would you guys recommend for killing killa?

amber saffron
#

!helmets

bold kernel
#

what are some tier 3

#

helms

amber saffron
#

@urban summit vepr hunter with m80

half jackal
#

~120k? without any faceshield/etc @tardy pond

amber saffron

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Headwear in Escape from Tarkov offers multiple purposes.
There are cosmetic items, protective helmets and utility items. Each helmet offers protection for different zones of the head, which becomes an important consideration before heading into combat.
Another important consideration to make is that different helmets will have a different impact on how much sound they muffle. Sound is an important part of the gameplay in Escape from Tarkov.
Escape from Tarkov also features modular helmets, which will influence and change the amount of zones protected by the helmet. The zones, or segments, are as follows: Top, Nape, Ears, Eyes and Jaws.
To learn more about the effectiveness of armored headwear check the Ballistics page.

@urban summit go get a Klin and just cheese him

tardy pond
#

Thanks @half jackal

amber saffron
#

there’s a green one

half jackal
#

@bold kernel SSH

amber saffron
#

no not that green one

#

uhh let me see

#

the LZSh light

royal wind
#

Kiver or LZSH are gonna be the only level 3 ones.

amber saffron
#

kiver no ears tho

#

id rather wear headset than helmets

royal wind
#

And LZSH is overpriced for 3. I wouldnt bother with a faceshield for those prices Foxy.

amber saffron
#

^

#

good point

#

just wear headset tbh GWcorbinHolyFuck

#

helmets are a scam

#

i’d only wear them in factory or labs

half jackal
#

I would rather have headset than a helmet without headset

#

helmets are extra useless on labs

royal wind
#

If you absolutely NEED a level 3 helmet and faceshield I'd use the Kiver. Even though it makes you deaf AF

amber saffron
#

headset is the way to go

#

helmets bad

#

headset good

#

armour is important

#

but helmets not so much

half jackal
#

not having hearing is really really really bad

amber saffron
#

yeah

#

i always wear headsets

half jackal
#

I think 95% of my kills are because I hear someone first

royal wind
#

LZSH alone without the mask is more expensive than a kiver+shield. They're both gonna suck, one will drain your stash less.

amber saffron
#

yep

#

like even on super budget runs i take a headset

half jackal
#

and faceshields suck for everything except pistolings and scavs

amber saffron
#

yeah

bold kernel
#

i run headset even on pistol runs

royal wind
#

And people like me using a VPO215 for the memes.

bold kernel
#

theyre just amazng and cheap

amber saffron
#

headsets are awesome

#

yeah what @bold kernel said

spark hawk
#

So what you guys are saying is invest in a headset

amber saffron
#

yes

half jackal
#

15k for a headset

bold kernel
#

for sure

half jackal
#

run it

royal wind
#

I couldve killed a thick boi by shooting him in the ear but he had the side protection on. 😦

bold kernel
#

12k from ragman i think

half jackal
#

yeah for gssh

amber saffron
#

i wear sordins but that’s my personal preference, different people like different things

bold kernel
#

indeed

#

does ragman sell peltors are some point?

#

at*

tepid patrol
#

@amber saffron thats why lzsh is good and expensive, you can wear comtacs with them, also a faceshield

royal wind
#

Sometimes a helmet helps. I was using a VPO215. Had no chance. 😦

bold kernel
#

oh yea he does for 18k, nice

tepid patrol
#

faceshield saved me so many times, especialy from random scavs or low geared players or pistols

half jackal
#

I mean technically

tepid patrol
#

i never run without a lszh with a faceshielf anymore

half jackal
#

he wasnt running Faceshield since hes a noob using Fast MT

#

so eye shots still work

tepid patrol
#

not him

#

me

#

about ppl arguing helmets are useless

half jackal
#

lzsh is okay

#

but no side of the head protection

#

I'd rather have level 4 side/top/back then level 3 back/top/face

pallid ridge
#

Helmets aren't useless, you don't wanna go fully geared and get 1tapped by a pistol.

royal wind
#

I'm not saying they're useless. I feel they're way overpriced for the protection they provide.

half jackal
#

30k for headset and ssh

#

thats all im willing to spend if im out of ulachs

royal wind
#

80-90k for a level 3 helmet with faceshield when you can get a level 4 armored rig for 50k. The prices just seem skewed.

bold kernel
#

yeesh, 80k for a helmet? Im not there yet

half jackal
#

I mean technically

#

level 4 helmets start at 65k

#

or lower

#

Ulach is top/side/back level 4 & headset compatible for 60-80k

#

level 4 armor is generally ~60k from ragman - except for the one armored rig

royal wind
#

Yeah, I'm talking about the visor compatible ones.

half jackal
#

i just dont think faceshields are ever worth it unless you're really new and keep getting facetapped by scavs

royal wind
#

I think their benefit is outweighed by the cost.

half jackal
#

I say that but - altyns/LSZH/vulkan FS are useful

#

level 5/4/4 FS

#

level 5/4/6 full head protection

daring mauve
#

wtf happened to the market

#

there are like no listings

#

wtf

bold kernel
#

just ask yourself, what would quattroace do kappist

half jackal
#

server died

daring mauve
#

oh

#

rip lol

half jackal
#

market server maybe too

#

so listings reset

daring mauve
#

half jackal
#

uh

#

be cautious

daring mauve
#

scav runs it is

bold kernel
#

servers have been total trash lately

daring mauve
#

my scav reset. uuuuugh. how else am i supposed to distract myself from my unappealing boring life

bold kernel
#

why does it take so long for me to join a game

daring mauve
#

servers slow

bold kernel
#

where do you live

tardy pond
#

I really hope the server stuff is sorted out soon :/

spark hawk
#

We all need to buy EOD version for better server support

bold kernel
#

I was going to say "Money cant fix bad programming" but then I remember you can buy better programmer

tardy pond
#

I alrdy did 😅

#

Most of it is due to the 3rd party services they use though right? And the interaction that has with the game coding?

bold kernel
#

Im not sure to be honest but a lot of games struggle with shitty network code

half jackal
#

"unoptimized load distribution and lack of game servers"

#

when one server gets really overloaded it knocks everything down probably

tardy pond
#

Fair enough

daring mauve
#

lol the game isn't even letting me insure stuff

#

rip

bold kernel
#

yea man the network is fucked

#

dont bother

daring mauve
#

i'm gonna...go outside

bold kernel
#

lol

daring mauve
#

see what the real world has for me...

bold kernel
#

going outside in another game

daring mauve
#

playing The Forest obviously

bold kernel

noice

#

@vernal anchor is it against the rules to recommend other games?

floral hatch

AKM

bold kernel
#

what's "budget"?

tepid patrol
#

with ps ammo

floral hatch
#

half jackal
#

@bold kernel Im going to guess no, but its more suited for #general-chat

#

@floral hatch Vepr KM

#

slap a tt01 mount

#

and a Pk-06

bold kernel
#

PS ammo man dont do that to yourself

tepid patrol
#

@half jackal why bother witha singleshooter wtf?

#

KEKW

half jackal
#

use BP - will one-tap 95% of helmets in the game

#

for 30k gun

#

ok.

tepid patrol
#

bp is 1k abullet

#

ps is 70 a bullet

#

and has 36 pen

#

bp has 47

half jackal
#

imagine asking for a budget loadout and being recommend a 40k gun thats unusable on auto because of the recoil

sharp cave
#

my gun is blinking in my inventory and my character is stuck in a loading animation what can i do

half jackal
#

PS wont one-tap most helmets

#

BP will

bold kernel
#

@sharp cave servers busted just wait for it

sharp cave
#

but iucan still move and do shit but i cant search

half jackal
#

BP will literally one-tap 95% of the mega geared players you run into

tepid patrol
#

@half jackal just watch summit play budget akm

half jackal
#

PS wont

tepid patrol
#

its too expensive man

#

1k a bullet

half jackal
#

AKM is 40k for 140 recoil

tepid patrol
#

1 mag is half your budget

half jackal
#

summit uses forward grips/modded stocks

tepid patrol
#

thats why you kit it

#

for like 30k

half jackal
#

My usable AKM build is like 90k

#

for 85 recoil

#

using the most efficient parts

floral hatch
#

@half jackal ok i got Vepr KM with tt01 mount and PK-06

half jackal
#

its semi auto - use PS or BP ammo.

sharp cave
#

they keep blinking and i cant do anything

half jackal
#

in-game?

sharp cave
#

yes

half jackal
#

or stash

#

relog

sharp cave

im mid raid

half jackal

floral hatch
#

@half jackal what mags

half jackal
#

link search the gun

tepid patrol
#

@harsh ibex just bring a pisol or something its not based of money

floral hatch
#

what mags should i use\

half jackal
#

apparently pistols still getting targeted (?)

tepid patrol
#

its based of do you have gear or not

half jackal
#

@floral hatch use 30 rounders

floral hatch
#

which type of 30 rounders

ancient falcon
#

What do you need for those no recoil hipfires?

tepid patrol
#

@floral hatch use the white ones with 5 percent boost

half jackal
#

nothing really

tepid patrol
#

cheap

half jackal
#

lower vertical recoil = better

ancient falcon
#

I've seen so many videos of people not even adsing. Just hipfiring with very little recoil

floral hatch
#

Palm US?

half jackal
#

@ancient falcon any gun with low vert recoil will point fire with low recoil

tepid patrol
#

@ancient falcon it appears you dont have reocil cuz you dont see it

floral hatch
tepid patrol
#

@ancient falcon if you are not ads it seems no recoil

half jackal
#

also ^ you're not going to notice as much

ancient falcon
#

I put a vertical grip, still heaps of vertical

half jackal
#

what gun

floral hatch
ancient falcon
#

HK

floral hatch
tepid patrol
half jackal
#

Whats the recoil?

sharp cave
#

are the servers actually still fucked up rn or are we able to play normally rn

tepid patrol
#

@floral hatch make sure you insure all your gear,especialy with budget runs, people will rarely pick up low end gear and you will get it back

ancient falcon
#

81 @half jackal

spark hawk
#

It’s never normal. Your always at risk of disconnecting

floral hatch
#

@tepid patrol what rig and backpack and helmet

half jackal
#

@ancient falcon yikes - use RVG as a forward grip - put a bulletec flash hider on there

sharp cave
#

in terms of me getting the same issue i just got , i killed a PMC started reloading and i got stuck in reloading animation and my gun was blinking in my inventory and so were 2 other mags but the raid was going on as normal

tepid patrol
#

@floral hatch i insure everything and get like medium-budget guns like 80ish k back often

half jackal
#

replace the CST buffer tube with SI Advanced (the cheap gray one) and put a MOE stock with buttpad on there

tepid patrol
#

@floral hatch what are you trying to do? which quests?

ancient falcon
#

i have bgv rn

tepid patrol
#

you wanna play? @floral hatch

floral hatch
#

yes

bold kernel
#

Guys it depends on your money, "budget" is relative

#

If you are shitass broke then budget means pistol only

#

If you have 200mil then budget is 300k

it's their trading rank basically

The more you increase it the better market parks you get

royal wind

is anyone else having issues rn with like selling stuff or in game ?

ancient falcon
#

@half jackal where does the SI advanced buffer tube go?

#

doesnt say slot is not empty when I hover over it

royal wind
#

It attaches to the receiver.

#

Do you have a stock on the weapon already?

ancient falcon
#

yeah i have HK enhanced buffer tube

half jackal
#

ahh fuck

#

HK

ancient falcon
#

but the other one isnt compatible

half jackal
#

yeah just use the enhanced buffer sorry

royal wind
#

Yeha, the advanced Si is for M4, Adar, TX etc.

half jackal
#

same thing though

ancient falcon
#

recoil is 69 now

spark hawk
#

I’d keep it there

half jackal
#

what flashhider?

ancient falcon
#

81 to 69 is a noticable difference?

half jackal
#

yes

bold kernel
#

69 recoil on Valentine's day? Lucky boy

spark hawk

69 for the memes

ancient falcon
#

bulletec st

half jackal
#

what stock?

ancient falcon
#

6012

#

HK enhanced

half jackal
#

whats on the buffer tube?

ancient falcon
#

HK enhanced buffer tube

#

it has -3 recoil

half jackal
#

I mean like what actual stock do you have attached

ancient falcon
#

oh HK slim line

#

didn't know it had 2 stocks

half jackal
#

Slime line is the actual stock - it goes on the HK enhanced buffer tube

ancient falcon
#

oh right

bold kernel
#

Hk has like 4-5 options no?

ancient falcon
#

the SI advanced wasn't compatible

tiny laurel
#

as a scav, will other scavs aggro me if i start killing the bossés goons?

ancient falcon
#

I just got this from a raid, haven't used it enough. Do we need to use the same gun a lot?

half jackal
#

69 is probably fine

ancient falcon
#

so we level up or doesn't matter

half jackal
#

for another 10k stock you can get it down to 64 but for now thats fine

ancient falcon
#

what stock?

#

idk spending more

HK E1

surreal brook
#

looking for help to do prapers missions

half jackal
#

thats the best recoil you'll get without running RK1/2 grips unless you replace barrel - you can get it down to 37-45 if you fully kit it out

bold kernel
#

Wowa best to get used to one weapon if you wanna gitgud

ancient falcon
#

thanks man @half jackal down to 64 now

half jackal
#

Using the same type of gun will slowly increase skill in the type.

spark hawk
#

As val is gitgud gun

ancient falcon
#

@bold kernel yeah I always lose them in pmc so have to wait another day to get it back

half jackal
#

like using assault rifles/etc

surreal brook
#

@bold kernel ty sorry about that

bold kernel
#

No worries man

half jackal
#

theres also gun-specific mastery - but i wouldnt worry too much about that

ancient falcon
#

will that improve recoil and control as you level up?

bold kernel
#

Yea, also reload speed and ergo right?

#

Don't quote me on that

spark hawk
#

Is there away to increase the amount of offers you can have up in flea market?

bold kernel
#

Increase your trader rank

#

By selling more and with bigger priced items

#

How come I can't add a Dovetail OP-SKS Mount to my sks?

royal wind
#

Cause it aint an OP-SKS

amber saffron
#

because it’s for the OP-SKS

bold kernel
#

And you can't turn an SKS into an OP-SKS ?

amber saffron
#

no

royal wind
#

Nopes.

bold kernel
#

And there's no proper way to search for an OP-SKS versus a normal one?

half jackal
#

do yourself a favor

#

use a vepr km

royal wind
#

Mmm... that I don't know.

half jackal
#

its an OP-SKS but better in literally every way

daring mauve
#

I dumped 100k into cool attachments for my OP SKS.

#

Thus it is a better gun

bold kernel
#

kek

half jackal
#

like actually try the vepr km

bold kernel
#

well if you have a good build for me then sure

#

that's budget

royal wind
#

BUT! If you put 100k into that Vepr IT would be the better gun.

austere mortar
#

i got epsilon container now
what can i do with my alpha

royal wind
#

You can sell it to a trader. Dats it.

half jackal
#

@bold kernel Just buy the stock vepr KM, use your favorite sight/scope with it, maybe slap a buttpad on

#

it has better stock ergo/recoil

#

40% cheaper

#

has 30+ round mags

ancient falcon
#

should we always go for AP rounds?

half jackal
#

uses same bullet

austere mortar
#

who should i sell my alpha container to? jaeger?

half jackal
#

whoever will buy it if you dont want

bold kernel
#

@ancient falcon no

fierce sandal
#

hey guys, is there any way I could give over my q reward epsilon case to my friend? or that has been completely disabled?

austere mortar
#

why do peacekeeper sells it for 5k$ though

royal wind
#

I think ragman or skier will buy it too and he pays more.

bold kernel
#

@fierce sandal disabled

fierce sandal

what bullet should we get then? there are too many options

austere mortar

#

@ancient falcon depends what you want to achieve with your loadout

royal wind
#

There are a lot of options but generally only 1-2 are viable with any bullet type.

bold kernel
#

Usually it's great if you have high pen but you might also wanna go high damage low pen if you're aiming for legs arms

I really need to just start doing quest instead of being a rat 🐀. I just love the cheese

I always go for head

#

Do your enemies often have faceshields?

ancient falcon
#

7.62x51 mm M80 or M62

tepid fossil
#

@bold kernel from time to time

#

I prefer no helmet

bold kernel
#

If you wanna be 100% safe go for high pen high damage

#

is BP ak ammo

#

good

royal wind
#

The best

bold kernel
#

But get ready for $$$

royal wind
#

If youre talking 7.62 AK

half jackal
#

@bold kernel 545 or 762?

spark hawk
#

1000 a round the other day

tepid fossil
#

@bold kernel mediocre, okay at best

#

If it’s 5.45

#

7.62 very good

tiny laurel
#

just got full autoéd by an M4 guy that sounded like he was just in front of me, and the flashes also came from ''nothing'' right in front of me , desync much?

bold kernel
#

I run BS ammo because I can't be bothered with other shit

#

Otherwise if I'm pistoling I use high damage

tardy pond
#

What bullets do high flesh damage again and just shred legs?

tepid fossil
#

It’s okay @bold kernel

tardy pond
#

I believe it was a 9mm round

tepid fossil
#

Mediocre

bold kernel
#

@tardy pond for which caliber?

tepid fossil
#

I recommend BT^

tiny laurel
#

bt does the job and u usually dont care about them being tracers on a 74

#

at worst it helps you hipfire

tepid fossil
#

^

#

Red tracers too

tiny laurel
#

i mean, u usually dont engage in situations where tracers matter with 74's

tepid fossil
#

I usually run BT and I’m fine with tracers

tiny laurel
#

yeah

tepid fossil
#

Might start running BS though or m4

bold kernel
tiny laurel
#

bs is for when you expeect class 5+ players

#

imo

half jackal
#

everything below 40 pen is really meh imo

bold kernel
#

You never know when they're there so I always run it

half jackal
#

since most helmets in the game are level 4

bold kernel
#

No chances

tiny laurel
#

its mostly a matter of budget tbh

bold kernel
#

I'd rather run naked with BS ammo than armored in bad ammo

half jackal
#

ammo is the first thing you should spend on in a kit

harsh ibex
#

why is my intellect skill 0

#

ouch

tardy pond
#

@bold kernel i forgot what caliber it was ran on a leg meta fastt firing gun but cant remember

tiny laurel
#

i just never met an opponent that tanked my bt enough to make me wap tbh

tepid fossil
#

Budget indeed

harsh ibex
#

how does one level up intellect?

#

instead of just scav ramble

#

with becomes fully cyka blyad when shot at, doesnt ease the tension

tepid fossil
#

Well

#

I don’t trust scav players anymore

#

Ever since an incident that happened back then

tiny laurel
#

#

rest of the time i just do what a mans gotta do to get dem loots

tiny laurel
#

my friend usually gets a 50k r700 with scope on the flea market + M80 and rolls with it

tepid fossil

tepid fossil
#

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve bullied people in woods because of the suppressor

#

And yeah true

#

I just rolled with the 200k build and got out with it alive

tiny laurel
#

modding make it more comfy but its not like its really gonne be the difference between life and death as opposed to AR or SMG modding

tepid fossil
#

Mhm

#

Ar mods are like

how long

on reserve last

tepid fossil
#

Mod too much you’re losing a lot of money

tiny laurel
#

7 mins i heard from sacriel\

#

feels like 5 to me

tepid fossil
#

Mod too less you get too much recoil

tiny laurel
#

well

#

yes and no

#

you can mod it efficiently if your budget is average

tepid fossil
#

True

tiny laurel

or ultimately if you just bathe in money you just want that optimal gear

tepid fossil

Kolpak isn’t that useless anymore huh

tiny laurel
#

clsss 2 iirc?

tepid fossil
#

It’s just garbage tier now

tiny laurel
#

the only use i can see of 366 is memebuilds with fullkit veprs and shoot the legs

flint bramble
#

ive got the 510 mm barrel

#

values differ

naive atlas
#

is there any difference between the 30mm rings?

boreal wagon
#

why do I get bad owner param when trying to accept my insurance return?

royal wind
#

30mm is 30mm, the only difference is the mounting options.

naive atlas
#

ah i guess ill get the cheapest one for the vudu

bold kernel
#

What is the Epsilon Create?

royal wind
#

It's a 4x2 secure container.

#

You get it after finishing the Punisher tasks.

bold kernel
#

Oh

#

Idk what the punisher tasks are, i havent even started many tasks.

#

Im lvl fucking 23

royal wind
#

Prapor missions. Asking you to kill scavs or PMCs with different weapons.

#

Ahhhh

#

Before you get the mission?

bold kernel
#

Yes

fiery rover
#

bold kernel
#

royal wind
#

I dunno the prereqs to get the tasks. But there's 6 Punisher tasks that you have to do.

boreal wagon
#

I just get it when I move things in from insurance returns and its been bugging me cause I have alot of juicy guns wating for me there

fiery rover
#

punisher part 6 is the quest for the epsilon container

bold kernel
#

So the number 6th quest is the Epsilon?

royal wind
#

Looks like you have to do 9 quests before you get the first punisher quest.

bold kernel
#

On the punisher sid

#

Well i got 8 left 😄

royal wind
#

Then you have to complete the 6 punisher quests for the crate.

bold kernel
#

Fuck

royal wind
#

So 15 total.

fiery rover
#

the first ones are rather easy, punisher depending on your skill might take a while

royal wind
#

Looks like I'm down with most quests judging by that chart.

But usually a hatchling will get to it first so have to go fast

slate mesa
#

never been on reserve^^ learning fabric right now

#

factory

worthy cobalt
#

What should I do when I'm a noob with gear. Should I use all my money to try get good gear and hope I make it back or should I find some budget loadout and run with that for while?

bold kernel
#

no

#

dont buy good gear when your prob going to die with it

slate mesa
#

always budget stuff, learn the maps first

worthy cobalt
#

Is there like a "standard" budget build guide anywhere?

slate mesa
#

all you need is a mosin or ak with a scope on it and a backpack

#

shotguns are great if can hit the head

naive atlas
#

@slate mesa factory is mostly a pvp based map

#

Theres hardly any loot

split vapor
#

shotguns are p trash

bold kernel
#

thats only for factory shotguns otherwise is kidna usless

slate mesa
#

its okay john, need to go there for a quest anyway

bold kernel
#

factory has bare loot its fun but if you want to make money its not the map

slate mesa
#

Intercharge has closed combat too

#

close

worthy cobalt
#

So I should not buy armor and stuff then? Just gun and storage?

bold kernel
#

ppl jsut gonna kill you

analog fulcrum
#

@worthy cobalt if youre new and low on cash, pretty much

slate mesa
#

theres this cheap level 3 armor vest you can try, it protects against pistols from scavs

worthy cobalt
#

I guess headset is a must anyway tho?

naive atlas
#

Yea

spark hawk
#

Just ply scav learn map and extract and use scav stuff on PMC. Sell other loot

naive atlas
#

Always wear headphones , if you can only afford 1 dont use a helmet

slate mesa
#

yeah, do scav runs as often as you can, great for learning and no risk in it

spark hawk
#

Been playing for 2 weeks and just bought the cheap headset from ragman and holy hell what a difference!

#

Pretty much playing dead

#

Deaf

worthy cobalt
#

I'm using that one all the time. I just feel like I get killed by things from the other side of the map all the time. I never even see who kills me

cobalt cipher
#

does eating/energy and drinking actually mean anything or you just need to keep it above 0 and that's it?

slate mesa
#

sprint if you have to cross open ares, sneak and be patient if youre in cover

#

good question legtator

#

I know you level up a skill if you drink and eat, so you char needs less food over time

bold kernel
#

Is it worth lvling up peacekeeper

#

if im low im on money rn

silver dome
#

was servers lagging like shit rn?

worthy cobalt
#

It says there are 7-12 players on customs. So lets say there are 12 and I kill 1 will another one be able to join in on that raid or will there be 11 or less to the end of the raid? Always wondered that

naive atlas
#

More cant spawn in

#

Player scavs can though

worthy cobalt
#

Can there be more than 12 with player scavs then? Or cant people spawn as scav before 1 pmc is killed?

bold kernel
#

why is glushka

@bold kernel

happy friday

#

Scav run to make money.

#

Explore maps in offline mode, learn caches, extracts, jumps, major points of interest, where people like to move through.

#

Start with Customs.

#

Tarkov YT'ers have a lot of map guides

You can’t survive that long without whatever you get fatigued and die @carmine mauve

@chilly tangle learning the maps and watching youtubers and how they play helped me alot.

worthy cobalt
#

The xp you get when you play scav does nothing for you pmc right? Its just a tease?

chilly tangle
#

Scav runs are SP. No real people?

light sun
#

When you scav run its just a class other than ur character

chilly tangle
#

But do them to try and get loot/currency?

light sun
#

there are still realy people

#

real*

chilly tangle
#

Ahh ok.

tribal cove
#

Found a redut m 49/49. Does it have enough durability to use on a high tier run?

chilly tangle
#

How do u explore maps in offline mode

daring mauve
#

Scav runs are still MP. NPC scavs will not attack you unless you attack them. Skills gained in Scav mode do not apply to your PMC. Any gear you extract with you keep.
