but people can still access flea market
#beginners-assistance
fiery rover
and make things you get through barter also marked as found in raid (so you can barter and then sell on flea market)
fiery rover
fm is a nice addition because it allows you to get easy access to certain mods you might need for your playstyle
but it currently is too strong and breaks the complete economy
rotund sand
I think flea makes the game more fair
craggy finch
I'm still noob and I love fm, it makes things easier, but I gotta agree. Removing FM would be the best.
rotund sand
which is why I think it has no place in this game
fiery rover
the problem by not having FM is the high tier ammo
frank beacon
Traders. Crafting.
fiery rover
it should be possible to access good ammo or armor to some extent earlier than lvl 30
a good solution would b eto make strong ammo barter only and give it to lvl 1 trader
rotund sand
sounds like an endless cycle to me
to get good ammo, you'd need the barter item
and to get that barter item, you'd need the good ammo
rotund sand
by that token, you could have the raid of your life but since you did not go to a barter item loot spot, next round you'll run garbage tier ammo?
fiery rover
would be an extreme case but then again what would be the raid of your life
the problem is currently good ammo/armor is too cheap and it is not a choice to bring it with you
rotund sand
was just a figure of speech, anything that is more fight-oriented than going to a specific spot instead, for instance
with the problem part, I'll refrain from giving false perspective, since good ammo is obviously not cheap for someone like me. but I get the point, sort of
fiery rover
well if you get the kills perhabs your enemys have the good ammo already
its always a trade off, to some extent a good geared player with decent armor should have a higher chance of survival against a lower geared player (same skill)
rotund sand
possible
stone moss
If you don't have money, use what you have the best you can.
fiery rover
however the lower geared player has to have a chance of killing the high geared player otherwise you go into a juggernaut meta
and we had that meta change coming with the mosin
stone moss
And Hunter came along. But they scaled that back a bit
Scavs aren't using m80
And default mosin ammo isn't quite as op against a tank
And they lock some that behind jaeger
fiery rover
well against a fort its not as strong but then again i hardly see forts used
rotund sand
so, currently, in theory at least, I could kill a geared player with my 7.62x39 BP ammo because I can buy it off the market
fiery rover
thats something i don't understand tbh
rotund sand
and I won't have the same theoretical chance with PS
stone moss
You have to face shot
fiery rover
yeah but thats a bad example since BP 7.62 is shit 😄
compared to other high tier ammunition
stone moss
It's still ok
rotund sand
I mean, its the caliber I'm using, sorry if it was a bad example, lol
fiery rover
yeah i can take m995 or bs as well
stone moss
995 is good
Ignok
Honestly I'd think you should have flesh ammo and slowly get armor own as you work your way up I. Unlocked armor tier
rotund sand
my point was wouldn't it be a juggernaut meta when a significant portion of the players won't be running with the top tier ammo once its barter
naive atlas
7.62 BP is good
fiery rover
if oyu make the armor barter as well
naive atlas
its 5.45 BP which is bad
fiery rover
it gets euqalized
stone moss
Once you can do labs it don't matter
rotund sand
so you mean people won't be able to run geared as easily?
stone moss
Let's be honest
Raider farm is op
Rains class 4 and 5 armor with occasional 6
But ya armor meta is kinda meh. Makes most ammo worthless
I wish they just had 3 types.
split vapor
stone moss
Ya new changes will be interesting
But realistically most people wouldn't have that stuff.
Even for combat
That is special purpose gear. A lot of it
tardy pond
but why
fiery rover
apparently not enough people praised nikita and gave him his monthly sacrifice
karmic garden
The flea has essentially destroyed the early wipe, perhaps putting it up to 15 is good
fiery rover
i think what would also be good is to impose a lock on playtime 😄
stone moss
Lol destroyed. Wit
rotund sand
Nikita heard I was stuck doing Prapor's second quest
fiery rover
do not allow people to play more than 8h a day
rotund sand
he decided to make it so I'm stuck doing the first one
stone moss
I think more than 1 hour pay 1 dollar for 3 more hours
karmic garden
@stone moss early wipe now is you use some crappy gear for a few raids and then you have the flea and it's already full of gear that people are no lifing
stone moss
Vilp have a pop-up dead center of screen that shows up. "You have been playing more than 2 hours. Take a break"
cerulean cape
any way to filter metal gas cans by fuel left?
karmic garden
Locking the flea until 15 would make the early wipe actually mean something again
stone moss
Makes no sense crust
karmic garden
How
rotund sand
I give it one week before no lifers start crying about how they have been hunting only low geared guys
karmic garden
Yeah so it's not like everyone is running armour and high tier ammo on day 2
stone moss
Nah
gloomy rose
question,how do people search both a rig and a bag at the same time?
karmic garden
In a game which is already very hard for newbies
@gloomy rose max level search skill
valid mulch
is there an updated interchange map yet?
gloomy rose
alright thanks
stone moss
Ya a lot of new players go broke
karmic garden
Especially new players starting mid wipe
rotund sand
I mean its incentivizing to not use anything, so they won't go broke anymore
fiery rover
yeah beacuse hey don#t read my guide 😛
rotund sand
maybe I'll get used to be a pistol only guy or something
blissful lagoon
@gloomy rose When u max out a skill it becomes elite level and u get an extra perk, that is the perk for maxing search
stone moss
Idk we will see what becomes if it. Seems a bit steep to me
stone moss
Thought 5 was ok
You could get lucky with a graphics card Ina scav or keycaed and sells it
karmic garden
It would increase seal clubbing by 420%
rotund sand
when is the patch coming out
stone moss
Now it's worthless and have to keep for 10 more levels
night trench
are the hideout resource stuff worth it? like bitcoin farm and scav drop point
karmic garden
@night trench for some people yes and some no
night trench
or do they take long to give back inversion
karmic garden
I won't do the hideout next wipe unless they make something ridiculously op
fiery rover
hideout is worthwhile
stone moss
I honestly didn't find it to be late game
Crafting and workbench are nice don't get me wring
Bitcoin farm? Ehh ok
But later on I have lots of money and no need
So idk
devout imp
Yo, im new to this, legit just downloaded it a few days ago and havent booted it up, anyone wanna help know what the fuck to do?
stone moss
It has some nice perks
royal wind
I use quite a few modules still. I think its worth.
I'm over 20 mil and I still make my own ammo, mag boxes, water, scav case, meds.
stone moss
Fuel maybe we can team up later and I'll teach you the basics
devout imp
aiight cool thats sound
fiery rover
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1i78kqZUIdPX2nw-Yg9z-60labhxh_psZecXZOWhpBkU/edit?usp=sharing just use this to get an idea
stone moss
Unless someone else is willing to take you under their wing
devout imp
what time is it for you, I got work in the morning so I can go till midnight UK time @stone moss
rotund sand
I'm definitely going to reset account, but undecided when
maybe I'll wait till patch
devout imp
legit? xD
royal wind
Gonna be even harder after next patch. Since you wont be able to utilize the market until 15.
stone moss
If I can't today. I can pick you up tomorrow
devout imp
aiight thats sound
royal wind
I dont know what that means.
devout imp
lmaoooo fairs xD
stone moss
It's a stupid stoner meme
royal wind
No, I meant your artificial level.
devout imp
agentice I get it, Im a bonified stoner myself
rotund sand
ah okay
stone moss
Thought pigeon was asking. But they were asking about something else
royal wind
But F that nonsense. I have no problem buying 3 gas analyzers on the market to finish a quest over finding one.
devout imp
lmaoooo xD
royal wind
Took me a week to find one in raid, I can pass on trying to find 3.
rotund sand
thats a big boy problem
stone moss
But legit fuel
devout imp
aye?
stone moss
If you post in here that vss/Val are not good guns. It's harious. Should be a meme
I'ma make it one
fiery rover
i think they are difficult ones
royal wind
Yeah, using the FM to finish quests doesnt make your level artificial. It's actually intended to be used that way.
fiery rover
not bad but just not for every beginner
devout imp
@stone moss, just dm me when you playing fam
stone moss
I ill
I will
I honestly think they are okay
Just a lot in here go ape when you Insult their waifu gun
stone moss
Had two guys go on in chat for a good 10 min because of it
royal wind
There's no middle ground here for guns. It's either a 1. cheap af budget gun, or 2. meta gun
stone moss
Lol
royal wind
You post any other kind of modded gun and people gonna poo on you
royal wind
push up glasses Uhhhh....akshually if you use the rk-2 it'll lower your recoil more
rotund sand
I mean it'll not be the intended way after the patch, that was my point
royal wind
Youre not using the best mods.
rotund sand
currently it is, kinda
stone moss
How dare you not use altyn and fort SCRUB
royal wind
Theyre raising the FM level more for loadout reasons and not quest reasons.
naive atlas
They were arguing about sp5 and sp6 not saying vss was shit
royal wind
People hit level 5 and are instantly able to buy the best armor and ammo. They're trying to draw out the low and mid tier loadouts longer.
stone moss
Below and in the standard eft chat
rotund sand
that might be their intention, what happens to me is just a side effect, I suppose
stone moss
Like OMG its not life or death
naive atlas
O I never go to eft chat
royal wind
What happens to you will be of your own doing.
stone moss
XD
royal wind
If you intentially reset your profile.
rotund sand
yeah, true
^^I think talking "this much" about meta is kinda against the spirit of a game like this, but thats just my opinion
royal wind
Just saying, if you're having a hard time now. It's not going to be made easier by placing even more restrictions on yourself. Might as well just keep pushing forward with what you have.
stone moss
Just pick what u like and run it and have fun
fiery rover
now i just have to think do i wanna reach lvl 40 before the patch or do i not give a crap and just reset anyway with the new patch 😄
stone moss
If u like the toz and kill stuff then use it
royal wind
I dont understand this. Why is everybody wanting to reset before the patch?
rotund sand
I'm kind of obsessive
night trench
keys are not one use no?
stone moss
No
naive atlas
Only if they have a durabulity number on them
stone moss
Mukti use unless you get a key with durability
royal wind
One key is, but it will have a usage count on it if you're only able to use it a limited number of times.
rotund sand
I participated in all drops, but I'm never using the money I make from them on a directly impactful thing
just buying guns for offline or containers for looks
rotund sand
feels like I'm cheating using that money
stone moss
But I give a lot away
rotund sand
once the fm is level 15, I'll feel like I have cheated again
stone moss
Lmao
night trench
west wing room 301 key why so high price?
royal wind
Well play your way homie.
stone moss
I want to duct tape a thermal to my. Pm
rotund sand
maybe I shouldn't be this "fair" compared to my skill level, but meh xD
royal wind
They're expensive because of the potential loot spawns behind them.
stone moss
What spawns in it likely
royal wind
If the room spawns good loot, the key to open it is expensive.
night trench
yeah but you guys know of its hard to access/contested zone?
stone moss
Yep unless the market is flooded
naive atlas
Theres a dropdown to that room
night trench
I think im gonna sell them for some hideout upgrades
karmic garden
301 is a ledx spawn
stone moss
Yea
night trench
because im months from getting into any high level cntested zones
stone moss
Nah
royal wind
Only in your head.
rotund sand
you can do it
karmic garden
Hatchlings get to those areas
night trench
whats hatchlin
rotund sand
the pokemons running around the map
royal wind
Somebody who runs naked with a hatchetand hits the high loot areas as soon as they spawn in.
royal wind
They run in, stick the expensive loot in their secure containers and then kill themselves or die.
Then rinse and repeat
night trench
ow
rotund sand
only a Russian game would advocate suicide
night trench
seems awfully slow way of farming
karmic garden
@rotund sand lmao
royal wind
Not when the loot they're sticking in their secure containers are 1.4m LEDxs or 300k graphic cards.
It's actually pretty quick way of getting money.
night trench
ah
royal wind
That's why it's so common, because it works, unfortunately.
rotund sand
there was a guy on Reddit who made like 40m nonstop playing trying to get red keycards or something
stone moss
You will get that though
Honestly Idc about hatchet guys. Dynamic loot will resolve some of that
rotund sand
dynamic loot?
karmic garden
Not fixed spawns
rotund sand
oh they are doing that?
stone moss
The loot pools are more dynamic so you can get better stuff in random areas.
karmic garden
They've been talking about it for ages
stone moss
The doors will still work the same though
stone moss
Some are broke and have to resort to hatchet. Or pistol. But need for rubles fuels that.
karmic garden
stone moss
And tbh he can go grab the ledx and go away if it keeps him from sitting and camping extract.
rotund sand
relevant name
Nikita, please add a white flag to the game
so that I can take it as a sidearm
stone moss
Lol
stone moss
Be nice if you could have a perminant pistol and like... Level 1 armor and scav vest
So if newbies bomb out they can still run... And without mark and curse
rotund sand
would be nice if I could perma scav, dying and respawning
no need to have loot enabled
stone moss
Lmao
stone moss
I don't want to hear a kid screaming or playing loud crappy music as he camps in a building
rotund sand
I don't see how it'd ever be useful
stone moss
In which case, Jin..
What's the point of having it to begin with?
rotund sand
wasting the time of devs as part of an evil scheme
stone moss
Yea just a waste of coding and bandwidth
rotund sand
plus
maybe some idiot would have it enabled, get jammed by that idiot kid's music
and get ambushed by me
who knows

stone moss
Nah
No cod dogs
They may have though. In shoreline you can hear dogs barking in background other side of wall
rotund sand
I'd love to play with my dog in my hideout
would even pay some dollars to get him a diamond collar
stone moss
Diamond dog?
karmic garden
You should be able to play as a dog and run really fast to the loot

stone moss
I'ma name myself Michael Vick and teach it to fight

That's game related but good hardware and internet helps

latency is more about geography basically and there isn't much to do against desync, either

Yo just went to buy a big stick for my glock on the flea market and all the listings are from one dude with hundereds of magazines each. seems like a hacker or smthn unless he legitimately got thousands of mags?
rotund sand
if you haven't hit another scav within proximity, AI scav will not be aggro towards a player scav
@woeful forum technically speaking, you can find them anywhere, but I rarely ever see those anyways
viral basin
I ran past them and 10 seconds later they shot and killed me

on that note is there even a way to report hackers?

When i tried looting a body

Its prob market bot

@rotund sand whats the fastest way to do that task then

Need or lock
Pt
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.

Nope

yo what ammo should i use in my mp 133?
shotgun
im usin ap 20 but it seems to be literal ass
ah shit brb
jade shadow
how the hell do i survive
regal creek
any vets in here what want to show me the way of the rat cause i'm broke and have zero weapons
void ore
how do i get less recoil? I need it to be less than 600
jade shadow
@charred hazel 4
charred hazel
ah
well first thing i gotta say bro is this game is a fucking shit show. you are going to die ALOT.
anyways...
id reccomend starting off by learning customs
theres alot of good yt videos on that
jade shadow
im trying to do that
rotund sand
@void ore am I sleeping or isn't that already less than 600 recoil?
charred hazel
alright
jade shadow
i learned that shotguns are a joke
void ore
150+450=600
charred hazel
the only thing you need is ammo
charred hazel
you can use any gun but aslong as it has good ammo in it the guns good
jade shadow
i mean i was up in his face and i'm pretty sure i hit him but i died first
charred hazel
yea
rotund sand
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Gunsmith_-_Part_2#Inspect_View needs to be looking like this
charred hazel
shit shotty ammo does that
you dont have much acess to good ammo right now cuz you dont have flea...
jade shadow
i mean i had the vepr as well but i just got one tapped while i was looting yeah.
charred hazel
honestly bro the best thing i can say to do is practice
this game is fucking hard
it doesnt matter if you ever have past experience in other fps games cuz in tarkov its useless
the best strength in this game is knowledge
jade shadow
i mean idk what i should do i got like 10k in my stash and an sks
charred hazel
scav run customs or factory
charred hazel
happens
void ore
yeah, i was watching another guide, mby it was outdated thanks @rotund sand
jade shadow
literally whenever i spawn in i die in factory
rotund sand
no problem \o
rotund sand
factory is a hell nest to learn and loot is scarce
jade shadow
?
charred hazel
unless they removed that?
rotund sand
scav into reserve/interchange
jade shadow
wait whats that?
rotund sand
more profitable
charred hazel
all the scavs are gonnna target you if you hatchet run
jade shadow
thats stupid
charred hazel
yeah it is
jade shadow
if you have 200m in your stash and you're still doing hatchet runs i think you're doing something wrong
misty mantle
goddammit so fckn annoyed
rotund sand
anyways, yeah, just scav interchange/reserve, some leftovers you'll find will net more than customs
jade shadow
i still havent finished the customs quest
charred hazel
which one
jade shadow
the 1st one
misty mantle
killed a high gear player was lootin him then i heard a scav show up tried to move and i was bugged couldnt move at all
jade shadow
ye i got fucked by bugs a few times today too
charred hazel
oh yeah u gotta kill 5 scavs right?
jade shadow
yeah
charred hazel
i see
jade shadow
ive just been doing pve games trying to learn customs
rotund sand
if you are broke, nothing to push the quest with
misty mantle
ugh so instead of like a mil in loot i only got off with 40k motherfck
charred hazel
dont worry customs isnt to hard to learn
jade shadow
legit from 3pm to like 8pm, rn it's midnight
rotund sand
I learned customs rather fast and #1 golden rule for customs as a new player like me is
to not play it
misty mantle
i hate customs with a passion
charred hazel
why lol
misty mantle
im new
jade shadow
customs is dogshit, i tried reserve and it seems way better
rotund sand
for people trying to pvp, I suppose customs might be fun
charred hazel
how
rotund sand
for people trying to do quests and get into game? no way
misty mantle
reserve is easier to survive
young summit
Factory best for pvp :D
charred hazel
why the fuck do people always like reserve more then customs??? i fuckin hate reserve
sluggy thats fax
i always scav factory
rotund sand
because there is maybe 10x more loot on reserve
charred hazel
bruh yesterday my scav spawned with 2.5 mil key in factory and i got extract camped 😦

is overall visibility settings valuable at all?
I see some people having it on minimum
does it give an actual better visibility?

Level 15 if u actually do tasks takes no time at all
tepid rock
i still dont understand this game lmao. theres no instinctive for me to hop on my pmc, The start of matches are other pmc's knowing where pmcs spawn and killing me. i even waited 8 minutes (in a bush) after a customs game because i heard this guy going crazy killing everyone with a silencer and he ended up finding me anyways.
kind tartan
Just do the tasks
rotund sand
I still haven't done pocket watch

?

Go traders and at the top do tasks
U are literally missing an insane amount if u never do tasks
rotund sand
well, this isn't very consequential for people like me who are really bad

Yes it is u can make an incredible amount of money
rotund sand
instead of sucking with better stuff, we will suck with nothing instead
kind tartan
not even going into raid
From hideout or buying stuff from traders and selling on market
rotund sand
I'm talking about bad players
kind tartan
Bad how
rotund sand
I don't know, there isn't a metric
kind tartan
Like not being able to do missions bad?
kind tartan
Just go night time and grab it and run out
rotund sand
I mean I saw literally 1 shotgun so far
first mission in the game asks for 2
that must be telling
rotund sand
you mean by killing scavs?
kind tartan
Killing scavs or just finding them
kind tartan
You can still
rotund sand
now its a miracle

Ive been playing this game for like

Hey how do you all set up your alpha?

naive atlas
Unless you use really expensive ammo, bring a cms
short moon
cool appreciate the tip, haven't been using cms at all
naive atlas
, what do you with blacked out limbs lol
short moon
pretty much
wary marsh
once i was able to buy cms kits lol tarkov was like a whole new game
now new lvl requirment for flea market is kinda gunna suck tho
short moon
i respect that the game isn't like YOU NEED A CMS KIT STUPID.

what do flea market levels give
stone moss
When do the new changes take effect?
craggy finch
i was wondering too
stone moss
Well if any new people want some guidance im available now.
craggy finch
maybe I should buy some stuff from flea market till I can 😄
nocturne flax
Any way to fix the terrible stuttering issues?
craggy finch
try setting cpu affinity in task manager or process lasso to first or last 4 physical cores
also findout how to clear standby memory
there are tutorials
this might help
nocturne flax
Yeah, I've set EFT as real-time priority and I have software that flushes the memory. I'm wracking my brain trying to find solutions, but there doesn't seem to be anything.
I see all these guys streaming and they rarely, if ever, get any stutters. Just hoping it's something devs address soon.

raaa what kind o fidiot is lvl 48 and does not take meds with him...
mighty mica
does anyone know why i cant attach these 2?
mighty mica
what is it called
fiery rover
its the weapon
this is just a barrel and a stock they have nothing that holds them together
craggy finch
guys idk what to do.. my extraction points are OLD GAS STATION and ZB-1012 , both dont work! I just dont extract
im doing smth wrong?
fiery rover
probably both closed
craggy finch
where exactly it is on gas station
fiery rover
go zb011 or so
tight vigil
those 2 are not always there, go zb-1011
if you dont see green smoke / beacon light that means they are not active
old gas station you go inside then down a tunnel in the back
mighty mica
i got it lol
fiery rover
good
fiery rover
yes also
fiery rover
depending on the gun the receiver is also an option to change 😄
like the m4a1 for example
night trench
ak too
vpo, ak, akm, etc all use the same common parts and main change is receiver and barrel
flat cipher
sure but
youre still changing the gun
if you change the receiver of an adar to an m4a1 receiver
it becomes an m4a1
night trench
yeah
fiery rover
not quite but ok
night trench
id call that a sleeper gun tho
craggy finch
@tight vigil thanks for tip about zb1011 - nearly survived 😄
night trench
looks like an adar but suddenly pops full auto on you lmao
night trench
adar is basically a semi-auto m4
fiery rover
it is yes
night trench
if you change lower reciever you can have a gun that looks exactly like an adar but can shoot full auto
fiery rover
if it is an m4 yes
tight vigil
@craggy finch if your extract shows with ???? next to it that means it is not a guarantee to be there, right side of customs only certain one is 1011
night trench
you just changed a few mechanical parts on the inside near the trigger
some guns the only change they need from becoming semi auto to be full auto are cutting a small dent on a lever imside
this specially a lot in old ww2 guns
could convert semi to full auto-only
but nobody wants full auto only gun that would only stop shooting after magazine is empty
flat cipher
you guys like my adar
fiery rover
looks stylish
night trench
have you seen the m4 short carbine version for ahooting inside vehicles
you could make an adar like that so it like an m4 handgun
I dont see point of shooting this full auto
fiery rover
for that ugly motherfucker you should get a timeout
finite birch
so who needs help? im talking lvl 15 and below?

yo anyone willing to carry me in labs
i am noob
wary marsh
i dont want to sound like a ass but if your a noob labs isnt the place for you lol
nocturne flax
Sell it
craggy finch
was thinking maybe some stuff gonna be needed for quests/crafting etc
nocturne flax
It will be later down the line, but that's if you're really gonna crack down on questing
craggy finch
i will lose access to flea market after patch - so a bit concerned 😄
craggy finch
yea, just takes time
every level got same amount of XP?
or it is slowing down after each level?
fiery rover
na it increases with each level
i currently need still 111k xp for lvl 40
in the wiki you probaly can find a list for the xp up to lvl 40
but lvl 15 can be done in 2-3 days depending on your luck^^

there's some exclusive barters that are really good
such as 6x chainlets+1x vase (~70-80k) for a full tactec that sells for around 130k on flea

raven reef
okay, has someone run into this issue : Tarkov crashes just before the game is loaded ( either on awaiting session state or on loading loot tables ), after that im able to reconnect just fine. It only happened on customs/shoreline so far
I googled for a fix, i did the ram pagefile thing, didnt really help, maybe i crashed 9/10 times, instead of everytime. Anyone?
flat cipher
I get the opposite and I have no idea @raven reef i freeze and sometimes crash just after extracting

that may also be why

So I’m pretty decant at the game but I always jump if a gunshot goes off ur I get really nervous when I’m in a gunfight and my aim isn’t the greatest any tips I watch I watch this guy on YouTube fairtx I really like him but he’s really good it’s hard to keep up because he is so good I watch his videos because I thought it would help me
rough haven
The Game Is Meant To Be Really Intense, I Get The Same Way And I've Been Playing Since .10 So I Dont Think It's Something You Get Used To. The Risks Are High But At Times, So Are The Rewards, Just Gotta Be Able To Take The Risk, Even If It Means You Might Lose Everything. You Can Always Build Back Up.
austere notch
@wicked lagoon I suggest practicing online raids with scavs, the more you fight the less jumpy you get, but that way you're not risking your gear to practice
rough haven
^^^^^^
austere notch
offline raids*
rough haven
Offline Raids Are One Of The Most Useful Things, Learn To Fight, Where Loot Spawns, And Extractions And Locations On Maps
austere notch
Also, when you play, even if you jump, try to think about where that fight could be happening. Did those shots sound hollow and echoey? Maybe theyre in dorms. Did it come from my left? Maybe it's gas station. Once you know the areas where people fight most often, you can start to learn where a gunshot is placed on the map, thus making you less likely to get paranoid
wicked lagoon
Thanks any tips for aiming and I always aim down the sight when someone coming around the corner but people just just shoot don’t aim down the sights and I always have a hard time seeing people like I’ll get shot at and I’m peeking for to long because I’m looking for him and then I die
austere notch
Build your firing range in hideout. Go in and practice blindfiring and hitting targets. In a close fight the second you take to ADS will lose you the fight. Also, peekers advantage is huge in this game. Someone could peek the corner and kill you while you hold the angle before you see them. You want to reposition if they know where you are and try to get an angle they wont see coming. If you're holding a spot, make sure you have cover on one side of you. If not, you need to reposition or push the fight to avoid a flank
wicked lagoon
Oh ok thanks this helped a lot
@austere notch how old are you if you don’t mind me asking
austere notch
27 this week
wicked lagoon
Oh ok@
I’ve been trying to find someone my age to play with I haven’t had any luck and I’m not annoying 😂

how long does it take on average for twitch drops to come in

Thought those were instant
candid cypress
yeah, if you haven't goptten on byh now, you just didn't get one
austere notch
I've never gotten one after the broadcast, its always been during
stone moss
lol queue times at 2:00AM are pretty bad
twin orbit
@stone moss spent 6 mins on shoreline, you're not wrong

oh well i suppose most sane people in my area are asleep

wdym they are instant, whens the next time I can get one
or like try again
im broke af I need to figure out how to do it quick :/
prisma slate
what do I sell to jager
wicked lagoon
@austere notch do you play solo or with friends
austere notch
Bit of both, if im live I play solo if im offline usually with a friend or two
@prisma slate You can sell the core of a gun to jaeger for decent money
wraith cypress
What should I focus on buying with rubles as a new player? A guy that was helping me with learning the game said that I should get a docs case and now save for a lucky scav junkbox
twin orbit
As someone with 2 weeks into the game, that doesn't sound like a bad suggestion
Docs case is great, Lunky Scav Junkbox will be wonderful
twin orbit
Duh lol
bold kernel
someone said it was instant
wraith cypress
I have the standard edition so my stash is really small
bold kernel
ok
flat cipher
You didn't get any
austere notch
Okay, I only have the BETA container, so my stash is slightly upgraded. But in my opinion, you don't need much in the way of storage, you should sell most of your crap. I think you should spend rubles on hideout upgrades, specifically workbench, med station, and lavatory, then on better ammo for guns you're running
twin orbit
@austere notch that's pretty much where my heads at too. I don't have any friends who play but based on my experience so far, I'm finding most of the shit I'm now selling and trying to upgrade my hideout to test out weapons and get more comfortable with the gunplay aspect of things.
wraith cypress
He also told me that I should do some Interchange runs for graphics cards as I don't really need any keys for that and we actually did 2 together and both of the times found a gpu. Is that a good money income?
twin orbit
graphics cards are good money when you get the flea market
austere notch
Yes, but interchange is a harder map than customs, and will be harder to newbies after the next patch. If you're working on just money generation, do stash runs on customs
twin orbit
280k+ per
wraith cypress
Yeah I have it and got close to 300k each
austere notch
If you have a sherpa who knows interchange, by all means, you can get much higher value off of raids there if you hit the right spots
wraith cypress
The guy showed me around the map a bit.
austere notch
Its a good map for duos, its a lot harder on solo, mostly thanks to extract camping
bold kernel
With twitch drops if you watch 3 streamers at the same time it ups the overall time watched for Tarkov Stream Loot higher than normal, if I watch a squad stream does it do the same thing?
weird question if anyone can answer
wraith cypress
Yeah he showed me that you can literally camp behind the railway exfil extract
austere notch
Most streamers do not have drops enabled. You can only count as a viewer in 2 streams at a time on twitch, so if you have dual monitors, you can have both playing, with volume, as primary tabs, and count in both. Theoretically getting you 2 sets of drops, but I don't know if they have a safeguard on that or not. But both streams need to have drops enabled to have that work
flat cipher
@bold kernel drops aren't always active
bold kernel
my friend got drops like 30 mins ago so I think they r
flat cipher
Does it say drops enabled
bold kernel
https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/news/id/156

where can I check

The streamer will literally have drops enabled in their stream title, guaranteed.

Under their channel name

my friend got them on thursday is it just not today
unkempt geode
you guys know a good way to level jaegers sales ?
bold kernel
would they just say drops are active on announcements
flat cipher
Yup
austere notch
Historically, drops have been enabled like 4 times, around christmas on a bunch of streamers, on any of BattleState Games official patch note streams, during the tourney last week
flat cipher
Thursday was a dev stream
Which always have drops
It's not Thursday anymore
There are no drops
austere notch

bold kernel
ok
austere notch
The only streamer to have drops right now is Pestilly, he got 4? hours of drops, his choice when to use them, for winning the tournament
flat cipher
He's not using them unless everyone else is
austere notch
Aw thats nice of him
flat cipher
Mhm
austere notch
Also, @unkempt geode honestly, just buy and sell items to him that are close in value, you get money on both sides of the transaction towards leveling him, but will still cost some money in lost profit to do it
bold kernel
I wanna up Jagers like reputation cus mine is only 0.22 but I hate all of his quests
is that the only way of upping it
austere notch
Yup
Also, you need to do his early after finding him, other traders have tasks that subtract jaeger rep, making it even harder to level him to 2
austere notch
They are, by far the most annoying in the game, but you just gotta mosin up and run like 30 raids till you get em all
bold kernel
I don't like that they are gonna make it so you have to be lvl 15 to use the flea
flat cipher
But early wipe is gonna be crazy if they don't
austere notch
I don't like it mid wipe, if we're all on the same field? It is what it is, but I dont like locking out low leveled players that hard
