Is do scav occasionally but not often
I don’t understand how people manage to get skills up to 51 lol I can’t even get my strength to 3 for my vents
waxen forge
Throw nades
Buy 10 flashes
Go into a shoreline or Interchange and throw them all as soon as the raid starts
As far as the rest of the skills just play
They go up
I honestly never even look at mine
buoyant sorrel
same, keep getting stomped by fully kitted players. cant even finish getting to level 5
waxen forge
You are dying to experience not gear
buoyant sorrel
Pretty sure its a bit of both
keen phoenix
either way were just asking for help dude
waxen forge
You are dying because you are not playing to your gear
Not saying don't ask for help
Just making sure you understand that it's not the gear
It's the experience
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.

yes and i have no clue how to do that

yeah jesus id just like osmeone to invite me and talk me through it and run somerounds with me

buoyant sorrel
I'm not asking for one 👀
waxen forge
But you need to learn the basics and the advice about offline is the starting advice
buoyant sorrel
your advice boils down to 'git gud'
waxen forge
No
keen phoenix
seriously. this guy is being a lowkey asshole
waxen forge
My advice is learn the maps, learn the scav behavior, learn the PMC behavior
Learn about ammo
buoyant sorrel
thanks for your advice budracin thats all i think i need from you
keen phoenix
well most people learn by playing real rounds not just starting in offline move and killing the same scavs in the same spawn area repetedly
buoyant sorrel
@keen phoenix what region are you? maybe we can group

You have to go to an extract that you have

IF you are a PMC and you have ? exits those are only POSSIBLE not guaranteed

Oh okay, i was probably at the wrong exit then lmao

IF you take the time to go to a ? exit it may or may NOT be open.
If you choose to check the ? make sure you have time to get to a guaranteed one.

Yeah, I looked it up on the wiki and went to one that was always open. Only i guess it wasn't one of my exits

Would anyone ever set up a few "spawn camp extermination squads" ? 8 times in a row I died on Shoreline with less than a minute on the game time clock and less than 100m moved. This time I saw 5 dead bodies on the road to customs - So I figured there was a spawncamper present. Needless to say I hadnt even crossed the road before I died.

Scav on interchange
Loot tech and hardware from Oli and the 3 tech stores near Oli
Plus back of Goshan for more hardware
Can hit the offices in Oli and Goshan for PC parts
Get out and sell it. Compare LOWEST flea price to therapist. If therapist is close sell it to her.
Not looking to fight. Leave scavs alone
IF you get unlucky and have no backpack then find an isolated scav and kill him for his backpack. Remember scav agro is proximity so if you kill one in back of Oli then scavs in rest of mall won't be agro

So with the containers, is each one actually specific to their name, like the ammo case or pistol case?

Who can I buy those from
waxen forge
Will have to buy from flea at low level
waxen forge
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.

yeah, and the spawn over inside the factory is garbage to get out of without that key, you have to walk through (or shoot through, more like) 4-5 scav spawning areas with a couple really good loot spots (so if there aren't scavs, there are likely PMCs), the key cuts a big chunk out of the route, lets you at least miss a couple of the scav spawns

flat cipher
Interchange
dire rock
reserve is good once you get some of the keys for it but until then id recommend running scavs for keycards and such and customs and interchange with some moderate loot for killing
interchange is mainly about positioning and customs is more random with a lot of hot spots
thick venture
^ personally i find delayed pushes to dorms after all the fighting tends to get decent loot,
or being the first one there (but then expect some folk)
dire rock
plus interchange has some hidden barrel caches you can look up and loot
thick venture
one thing to remember
don't use the fancy equipment they give you and just run scavs for the first couple runs until you learn how to play the game effectively
also gives you some kit for your PMC when you exctract

do i need to survive the raid?

yea
pocket watch will automatically go to your quest stash in your task tab
you need to leave the game with it

oh rip

and don't forget to turn it in or transfer to the quest stash in your hideout. (task tab in character right hand side, top is on person, bottom is in hideout). if you go back in and die you will lose the pocket watch
its nice to use with quests like "delivery from the past" cause you can get the docs in customs and just hold onto it till you can place it in factory without risk.

also when you insure, it will take cash from your secure case first, then your stash.
toxic bluff
so u could take the money off urself then insure then put it back in gamma :p
hushed furnace
i mean you could but why. as long as you got at least 3k your good
gloomy tinsel
So I nearly have enough to buy a Thic items case, but also don't have a Red Rebel yet. Should I just buy a red rebel instead of farming one or buy the thicc case first and then just save for a rebel?
hushed furnace

what you all got from drops?

Red rebel is useless unless you are confident in your skills to survive reserve/woods
Also you need armoured chest rigs also
Unless you wanna hatchling
Or just rat it out :)

nad you need a paracord

Yep
That's half your beta
It not viable for low level players, either scav it out on reserve or go as a pmc on interchange, shoreline
It's a nice map reserve but very hard as a pmc

Worth buying 25 gpus for my btc farm (8mil). How long would it take to make the money back?
analog fulcrum
@tribal cove well, bitcoin farm lvl2 makes 1 bitcoin every 8h, lvl3 makes one every 4 and a half hours from what I heard
(upgrading from lvl2 to lvl3 now myself)
analog fulcrum
basically, lvl2 bitcoin farm makes about egzacly 3 bitcoins every 24h
1 bitcoin is like 150k, or 140k since I heard it just dropped
tribal cove
Yea, it would take 17days if I collect the btc as soon as possible to make the 8mil back
mossy siren
Also.. you dont lose the GPUS when you put them in..you can farm 100bitcoins and then sell the gpus..
analog fulcrum
well, theres 3 bitcoin slots, so as long as you collect once every day to not let it max out at 3 you should be collecting all in time
at lvl2 farm

@mint hawk hey i'd like to aska question
with regards about dogtags
so i discovered. my Dealers only allows me to barter using USEC dogtags. All my BEAR dogtags are not appearing. Is it normal?
mint hawk
@next seal as far I know it should be overall dog tags and not specialized to a certain class.. Unless they are adding more barters on the sly
old basin
Is there anyway so that when i fast loot roubles or any other item thats stacks (ctrl+click) they all go to the same slot and stack? When looting registers i find myself clicking and draging to avoid this
ancient falcon
does your character automatically make callouts in game?
why is everyone saying "i see the enemy" "you're gonna die here" etc
cunning bane
your character does not automatically do those callouts
ancient falcon
are people just double tapping y then having to navigate the voice lines?
right before a fight?
cunning bane
i think you can bind specific voice callouts to certain keys
old basin
What your character says depends on whats going on
cunning bane
but i'm not certain
old basin
And binding yes
ancient falcon
also factory says 4-6 players. How are there so many people in that game?
Most of them are full geared as well. My games are all shit loot, even if I kill 5-10 people
31 of them are scavs, didn't know scavs spawn with those kind of gear
hollow fulcrum
4-6 pmcs.
waxen forge
6 PMC. Then another about 3-5 player scavs. Then the scavs spawn in waves
However that's factory.
IF you are going for a task you have to go there.
IF you just want pvp then go there
If you want to make $ don't go there
thick harness
Ive seen scav spawns go crazy on factory before. Got bum rushed by 16 scavs in less than 2 mins
Was one of my most fun moments in tarkov. Until my mpx ate 200 bullets and I ran out of ammo xd

@ancient falcon that would be a raider

@next seal as far I know it should be overall dog tags and not specialized to a certain class.. Unless they are adding more barters on the sly

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.

Just did a mosin with no scope run on woods for a task (10kills 50m no scope on mosin) and by playing very aggressive I killed 8 scavs and 2 pmc without getting shot at all.

What does it mean when people say zeroing on like a rifle scope cause i see it quite a lot but i dont know exactly what it means
south dune
Zero is the hit point of your scope, because of distance / bullet velocity / bullet drop
the bullet wont go always straight in a line
solemn mason
@Gussy https://youtu.be/gdSpM6b2kt0
Watch this video he explains how zero wo
south dune
Yeah was about to say watch a better explained guide/video because its a bit confusing
solemn mason
Also, your better of just not zero and just judging the bullet drop because each guns zero is very accurate for one base bullet
fallen hollow
ah yeah i know what that is i just call it a different name
cunning bane
Zeroing is just making the bullet impact hit the same spot as the point of aim of the scope, since bullets travel in an arc because of gravity and physics, the zero needs to be changed at any given distance in order for the bullet to impact the point of aim
i wouldn't change the zero though if i were you, just aim higher
fallen hollow
how do i change the zero?
cunning bane
page up and down i believe ?
solemn mason
The only problem is it doesnt work because each bullet in an ammo type has a different velocity
So you could range for a 100m and hit high with a 700m/s round, but the base ammo for the gun is actual 600m/s
fallen hollow
yeah of course ive played the game for a while just me and my friends call zeroing and this is my friends name for it "bullet go where crosshair fucking is"
cunning bane
unfortunately it's not actually "bullet go where crosshair fucking is" though
solemn mason
Because of ammo velocitys
south dune
^ zeroing is very controversial discussion in eft, more lately because of the devtalks with streamers and such everyone is giving their 2 cents but yeah
better not zero and just aim higher
cunning bane
i've never actually zeroed in any game, i just aim higher
but i suppose i'm not doing 500m shots very often
south dune
yeah we got it
honest tusk
Zeroing only really works if you know exact distances and know where people will peak
cunning bane
the point is it doesn't work if you know the distances
south dune
another point is range finder in this game is lacking

When I was a beginner, I used to think armor was more important than ammo
now i know its the opposite.

Precisely lol

most important is always praising the lord nikita of tarkov so he might help you survive
dire rock
Yeah, some people even go to the extreme and build shrines with weapon cases and stuff like sacrifices to them
But they locked the rooms with expensive keys so we can’t get to them
fiery rover
only thing that works is once a month offer a thicc item case as a sacrifice
fiery rover
see
thats why you die in a raid more than others
not because of skill
its because you lack the sacrifice

But that question depends on RNG. Sometimes you find 3+ guns, sometimes none.
dire rock
Don’t judge me
solemn pike
I found an RSASS and a 74N, but I brought a 74N I found the raid before.
My strategy was to bring a big gun, big enough to kill killa if I have to, then one mag of ammo and a salewa into the raid.
go straight for kiba,grab everything and bail.
Its working reasonably well.
Im making bank relative to my skill level.
silver raven
what does bullet fragmentation do?
royal wind
Hits again for 50% damage.
silver raven
ok, so for ammo that deals 80+ damage, theres no real benefit to frag chance because it can 1-tap anyway?
royal wind
Yes and no. If a bullet does exactly 80 damage a lot of time it cant 1 shot through armor, since armor can reduce the damage when it pens. If it fragments, it would still kill.

Should I use gen4 full protection or the redut t5. Doing a labs run. What do you think?

So like, it feels like it's impossible to win a gunfight against anyone. Even people I get the drop on just turn and 1 tap me. I'm using the suggested armor, helmet and weapons from some of the more popular guides out there as well as as close to the best ammo as I can(not paying 1k per round). How am i supposed to stay motivated when it feels like it is completely impossible to win a gun fight?

@terse sedge gotta use the expensive ammo lol. If it ain’t 400-700 per round you ain’t killing anybody but hatchets.
terse sedge
So I'm supposed to carry magazines with 30k worth of ammo that I'll likely never even shoot because I'll die before i get the chance to use it?
cunning bane
700 per round sounds expensive but when you actually survive gun battles it's making you money
yea
fiery rover
depends on how many rounds you need to kill someone 😄
cunning bane
either that or do factory for many hours
terse sedge
Gonna be like 150-200k to use expensive ammo on top of a decent gun, armor and everything else, I'll never stay positive with cash flow
