Mine also but very pricey to mod :)

No need to mood m1a if you know the maps well
rotund sand
here I'm thinking about base gun + sight costs
river ruin
*mod
bold kernel
Indeed, remember a well placed mosin 7n1 shot to the stomach is lethal up to level 4 armor :)
zenith compass
I don't mind spending a bit of dough for mods
rotund sand
whats your survival rate
zenith compass
Been running earlier patches basically stock, so I'm experimenting with them now
Mine?
rotund sand
yeah
bold kernel
Until you learn the maps you are better with little to no mods
zenith compass
0% so far, lmao
Only been in 2 raids this patch as a PMC
Just been scavving around
rotund sand
lel
bold kernel
:)
rotund sand
close to mine, I'm at 11%
bold kernel
Scav is fun
zenith compass
First time, got lit up by one of Reshala's guards
Second one was a server DC
bold kernel
Ooof, I hate the bodyguards defending the gas station
Got a run where the entire map died to them
bold kernel
It's a choke point
zenith compass
Mhm
Wasn't aware of the Customs extension further out on the left, that could've saved me
bold kernel
Behind you can get on the rocks and snipe half the map
rotund sand
I'll go to dorms #oneday
zenith compass
The boss has juice, that's for sure
bold kernel
The bodyguards are insane, especially their nades and also the fact that they rush you when you are near
river ruin
Dorms is good newer player if you can stay low and pick up the scraps. Most of time gear will be left behind
Late raid of course
bold kernel
But all the rats check dorms
bold kernel
Dorms and gas station are a hot spot
jade shadow
that's why i just rat in the woods on customs 8)
jade shadow
i wasted 100k on a goddamn glock
river ruin
If there is alot of shots at dorms find a good spot and pick people off
jade shadow
customs has all the quests tho
bold kernel
Bad design
bold kernel
Map knowledge mostly
rotund sand
I just want to go dorms for questing
bold kernel
Good ammo then
rotund sand
not interested in loot
zenith compass
I've basically learnt Factory, now moving to customs and woods
jade shadow
factory doesnt have much to learn and it's just a grind tbh.
i really dislike factory .
river ruin
Play em until you don't need to refer to a map anymore for extracts/loot spawns/PMC scavenger spawns. It will increase your survival rate alot
bold kernel
New interchange should be fun
zenith compass
Noted
jade shadow
go into pve and practice the routes
river ruin
Spawn points are huge, most good players farm em
jade shadow
if ure scared of dying that is.
bold kernel
Either hide and avoid them or hunt them down
zenith compass
I see
First 5 minutes, positioning's key
river ruin
Takes along time to learn the maps but once you do it get even more addicting lol. Because your surviving more
bold kernel
Yep it seems survival rate goes up with the pmc level
zenith compass
Fair enough, haha
Looking forward to those extracts
First raid of the patch where I survive
bold kernel
According to the latest Reddit questionnaire
rotund sand
how do you avoid the PMCs at spawn
bold kernel
You need to learn the other spawns, the loot points, movement and then maybe you have a chance
rotund sand
hiding in a bush 
river ruin
You don't have to hide from them just be aware of them when your crossing the map
bold kernel
Positioning is key and you get that from map knowledge
rotund sand
I don't want to get into gunfights if possible
bold kernel
Map knowledge
stone moss
You just go where people don't go and stay quiet. If you want to avoid people, reduce your sound profile
bold kernel
That comes with map knowledge
rotund sand
yeah but late into the raid, if you are trying to cross the map
other people will be crossing the map towards you
bold kernel
We are talking about ifs and buts here
rotund sand
it was a figure of speech
scarlet elbow
gooood morning
stone moss
Jin just team with me this weekend
bold kernel
You can also do night raids when the moon is up and no fog or rain
stone moss
Lol
bold kernel
Less PMC's and scavs are kinda blind
stone moss
Nah I want to help you. You just are way ahead of me timewise.
rotund sand
yeah
bold kernel
Until you meet that sniper scav with nvg
scarlet elbow
is the game back up yet? im ready to lose more shit
zenith compass
Flashlights recommended, or not really?
rotund sand
I tried 1 night raid, got camped
bold kernel
If the moon is up and it's not raining the visibility is quite good
scarlet elbow
anyone know the size of the update?
zenith compass
I see
rotund sand
at least the scavs are easy to detect with their flashlights
bold kernel
Flashlights are too much
Imho
Unless it's factory night time where you can't see shit
rotund sand
I was able to kill 2 scavs purely looking at their lights
bold kernel
Yes
stone moss
You can see a flashlight out in the distance at night ez
bold kernel
Also if you don't play you aren't gaining xp
And confidence
So get out there and play the game :)
If you want to achieve something
zenith compass
Aye, of course
rotund sand
I mean I missed them because I was getting hit while trying to fire, probably
zenith compass
Aim punch?
rotund sand
think so
zenith compass
Ah, right
rotund sand
or maybe not, would have to rewatch
scarlet elbow
do knives have a purpose?
rotund sand
I can't tell how many times I died because I simply think someone doesn't see me lol
scarlet elbow
wondering if they're useful at all
tried slicing one scav a few times and i think he laughed at me
teal dagger
Stupid question: I am level 11. Will I loose access to the flea market after the patch 😄 ??
scarlet elbow
is there a more effective way than just clicking banging the thing?
click banging*
scarlet elbow
clicking rapidly
zenith compass
Ah
scarlet elbow
hoping for the best
zenith compass
Attacks with RMB to the head save on hits
scarlet elbow
the melee equivalent of spraying and praying
scarlet elbow
i shall review.
zenith compass
Well, granted you strike within range, which I failed 3 times in a row
Lmao
But yeah
scarlet elbow
i was about to say.... whiffwhiffwhiff
so the axe i understand should be relatively deadly to the head, how about knives
zenith compass
Don't bother left clicking with them, haha
Right click does a stab, which is better overall
scarlet elbow
would swinging the axe not do more damage than poking him with it though?
or did they not thinka bout that'
zenith compass
Anti-hatchling measure, afaik
In the real old days, melee weapons (Although few) did double damage and didn't cost stamina per strike
scarlet elbow
eh well... anyone whos taken an axe to enough wood will know stamina is real XD though most gamers undoubtedly arent chopping wood where they live
zenith compass
Lmao, yeah
scarlet elbow
get those real dense block pieces the axe just gets locked into, fuckkkk
zenith compass
Imagine if that was in Tarkov
scarlet elbow
woodcutting?

ah, oo gtg fora bit4
rotund sand
lol thats another issue
languid flare
@stone moss The access to another players invenotry bug was fixed
rotund sand
it'd suck to get it yanked, though, true
stone moss
O e way of doing it and supposedly.
That was in the game for a long time though before it was "known"
languid flare
Also, melee never was 'yanked' from what I saw
stone moss
I had a friend that did happen to so I can verify it could be.
languid flare
shrugs
stone moss
He actually quit the game after it happened
rotund sand
unless it was The Mandela Effect, there are a lot of people talking about it
stone moss
Lol Mandela effect
I think people just don't remember as well as they would like tbh. This isn't steins;gate.

true, though, we still haven't reached Steins;Gate

rarely its 2-5
rotund sand
because no match was being found
stone moss

stone moss
I think it dies
ancient falcon
more than 2 hours left
stone moss
Does
rotund sand
I'm actually not sure, no way to confirm
stone moss
Lol
So I was bored and had money. Started working on hideout
It's kinda annoying with the timegating for no reason.
Tarkov now feels more like a mobile game.
rotund sand
soon you'll have to buy stamina with real money to be able to keep crafting
rotund sand
and can play X raids per day before you need to buy your way in
stone moss
Yah... That would be rich
rotund sand
have to admit I'd play the game more that way
rotund sand
the more realistic way would be a monthly sub
rotund sand
nothing forces me to play a game more than a fat sub fee I pay
nah why f2p, it'd still be the same
stone moss
That's y I don't play eso
rotund sand
just like WoW or FF
rotund sand
technically, you are not wrong p:
stone moss
I lasted 2 days in ff and was like. Good God this is borring
And quit
But pso2 coming soon to the states
Might be OKish
Dude the motor level 3 takes 10 hours
Wuut
rotund sand
10h, wew
bold kernel
night trench
maybe if tarkov had a very slow non-raid way of winning stuff
like say your character starts working for some roubles for a few hours but you cant raid until timer stops or abort, that way you have to time stuff
so when working on hideout you cant work or raid, etc
royal wind
They kind of have that now with the bitcoin farm and scav case. But it would really suck if it locked you out of raids while it was working. I would not be keen on that idea.
candid cypress
I just heard someone say recoil control affects horizontal recoils, and weapon class mastery (assault rifle, sniper, etc.) affects verticals recoil. Is this true?
night trench
but scav case is basically a roulette and bitcoin farm only requires fuel
currently the base timers make no sense
for building
except that if you have ten million roubles and have zero upgrades you cant upgrade it all in a day but what purpose does that have
stone moss
But the cards are 300k
dire rock
@candid cypress recoil control reduces horizontal recoil and I don’t believe weapon mastery affects recoil but I could be wrong
stone moss
Roi for Bitcoin takes a while
candid cypress
Not really, if you think about it. Gpu’s aren’t sunk cost. So at any moment you could just take them out and sell it. If you look at it from that perspective, you basically being profiting immediately
stone moss
You can remove but that doesn't really change the fact you need a lot of Bitcoin to cover the cost of getting to and upgrading Bitcoin farm.
On a long enough timeline... Yes it pays off. Just takes a long time.
That's all my point was.
If you are going to remove the cards and sell. Then why bother with it?
If you paid for upgrades to get to Bitcoin farm and for the cards. You are loosing money if you sell them as well.
candid cypress
Cause it’s tarkov, once you get how to play it, you get to the point where you never lack money, so why not use money you weren’t going to use anyways to make free money
stone moss
Honesy anyone that uses it that I have talked to raves about the money they make off it.
And you can potentially make a lot.
But I agree, if you play right money isn't an issue.
candid cypress
It’s not “potentially”, you will
But it’s not really for people who are struggling for money
It’s more for the rich who have nothing better to do with their money
Someone who’s struggling to gear themselves for the next raid cause of money issue shouldn’t really bother with a gpu farm
stone moss
You could say the same for hideout in general. But again you will eventually get roi and at a point it will pay for itself slowly.
The luxury of having money is being able to just buy the junk
It either way, the cards will ding you for 9mil I think 30 is max
bold kernel
60 ain’t it
low rover
I'm level 6 PMC, was wondering if there are any tips for quick ways to level up, I'm still learning a lot of stuff, any help is appreciated

@leaden mortar how can i do again fast level?
fiery rover
what fast level?
signal glade
from level 8, to 15.
bold kernel
Most exp is gained from tasks. killing is next best way to level up
stone moss
Not a surprise tbh
fiery rover
kill stuff?

i can't enter tarkov?
fiery rover
go reserve and kill raiders and survive

wtf..

@signal glade taks give u a lot of EXP but if u find it hard, killing is the best way, but the very best one is killing and extracting on labs
stone moss
Yea and tasks are usually a pita

tasks are easy (sarcasm, tasks can be a bitch)
well anyway gotta check onto nioh2 since the game is still down
stone moss
If you are having trouble hitting 15 they arent

update crash the game?

thought it was not obvious enough so i edited it for clarification
no update still in progress read the #eft-announcements

there are a lot of people who unironically think they are easy

why do u want to be a mountain guy from nepal lol

So it has to be helping people in that particular discord?
And yes the eft website was really.... Really vague...
fiery rover
no the discord came afterwards
bold kernel
Sherpa discord is the appropriate place to be helpful and get recruited
fiery rover
can i apply to be a sherpa if i am banned from a german tarkov discord?
bold kernel
Considering it's be pretty laid out on how best to now... no not really
fiery rover
🤔 they really had something against my jokes about austria
stone moss
Either way, I appreciate the info.
bold kernel
If your banned on official channels then your probably not getting anywhere near staff.
stone moss

i am not sure if its actually an official dunno i also found the ban to be fishi (or kick rather not sure if i could reenter)

Well that's up to you to settle with appropriate staff.

slate steppe
hey i know this isnt really a beginner question, but i was wondering the best way to get fuel conditioner... is there a specific scav case i should be doing... i need 2 more found in raid and havent gotten any at all recently and ive been running alot fo interchange
unique willow
Was the leveling speed for strenght changed?
@slate steppe there's a fuel conditioner spawn in the middle of labs by the robotic arm
lost crypt
My buddy’s endurance didn’t get reset but mine did ?
unique willow
it did, he is just bullshitting you
zenith compass
The strength/endurance reset didn't impact me that much
Less than 1 skill point in both, lel
slate steppe
is there a chance for it on a specific scav case offering?
zenith compass
But yeah, for those who've levelled it up a fair bit before
fiery rover
No
zenith compass
Sucks to lose all that effort
ornate moss
what the duck happened with the flea price
zenith compass
Wouldn't surprise me when people find new ways
slate steppe
its because the servers were down, people are jsut buying, no supply
ornate moss
ok lol
steel sphinx
giving away stash, pm for RR/ sicc case/ etc (<lvl 15 only)
for anyone wondering; i quit for the wipe. dont wanna run as high level with 0 endurance
fiery rover
Lol
steel sphinx
@ornate moss msg me when u waste 6 mil on nades to get strength up and get it wiped mid-wipe
ornate moss
Bud i spent 5+ Mil on grenade quest so dw 😉
who cares 6 mil is not alot
i make that in 1-2 days
EVERYONE got wiped not only you
so everyone starts with 0 which is fair
considering people who cheesed it had a unfair advantage after the skill nerf
now everyone starts with 0 and its fair.
stone moss
Ehh
unique willow
it is not you playing his game, if he doesnt feel like playing then he doesnt feel like playing. No one else should be really telling others to play or not.
ornate moss
ofc its his decision but imo its a bs reason to "quit" because of a skill wipe 
doesnt matter if its half wipe or full wipe who cares 🤔
steel sphinx
id rather have a full wipe
stone moss
Same
unique willow
full wipe would be lit yea
stone moss
But that will come eventually
steel sphinx
its aids to play 0 endurance with high tier gear
at least buff the gain so it doesnt take 200 hours to get lvl 10 strength
fiery rover
unpopular opinion: everyone salty because of the strength and endurance reset is salty because they cheesed it before and now can't cheese it again, not counting those that are salty because of the hideout strength 3 requirement that one is a legit reason
atomic jewel
@ornate moss It's pretty frustrating when you were aiming for level 3 strength for Vents Level 3 and now you have to start over again with leveling being harder with the new weight system. Levelling for strength is just stupid if they haven't changed how it levels (no sign of it in the patch notes)
@fiery rover I was approaching level 3, no cheesing and I'm salty
fiery rover
ok lvl 3 makes sense because of hideout
ornate moss
yes i agree @fiery rover
and yes @atomic jewel they should have thought about hideout
but level 3 doesnt take too long 🤷♀️
atomic jewel
@ornate moss How are you supposed to level it quickly?
fiery rover
well be a thicc boy :d
ornate moss
just play, you need to be overweight or you can hit people / throw grenades
atomic jewel
@ornate moss You're overweight at 25kg now, you need to be over 36kg to start leveling (unless they have changed it without listing in patch)
sweet ravine
so uh, we get a bloodpressure counter instead of weight limit?
bold kernel
new best way to level up endurance and strenght?
fiery rover
normal
there i sno best way also the patch is out literally not even an hour how should anybody know
atomic jewel
Do we know how you get the grenade case?
atomic jewel
Thanks
fiery rover

thats the barter
thats repellent, matches and survl, the first and last one is new matches should just be a new picture

All new barter items
Nah, I have matches in inventory
Only 2 mind, but they don't show if I check the barter
so new kind of matches

raiders on reserve
bold kernel
probably solution to stop lvl 5 flea money farming...
gleaming gulch
scav boss minons or actual boss
bleak nova
on reserve u canm find them in black and white knight on the med beds
beginners will struggle to take out raiders @gleaming gulch
gleaming gulch
not if you let people kill them for you
I got mine from hiding and letting people do all the work
late canyon
Beginners wont struggle to take out raiders
They have insanely abusable AI
It takes 5 mins to learn how to cheese them
bleak nova
yeah but u gotta learn it
late canyon
yes, for 5 minutes
bleak nova
also getting aimbotted from across the map doesnt help much
bold kernel
there is hermetic door on reserve for raiders loot...
fair eagle
Is it just me or does weapon handling feel more smooth?
late canyon
Gluhar doesnt
late canyon
if you attack raiders from250m or so away, if its not a scav boss, they wont fire back
Just like normal scavs
bold kernel
Is interchange reworked?
maybe just me
does the game work again?
I got a glock for quest yesterday ilike the sound
gleaming gulch

gleaming gulch
its prob does depends on what server you play on
gleaming gulch
@bold kernel check patch notes
stone moss

stone moss
G2K
desert grail

stone moss
Gotta reset I think

stone moss
It's like a Serta mattress
bold kernel
@tired brook check wiki for all the gun builds
desert grail
@bold kernel im pretty sure the transaction has gone through

bold kernel
@bold kernel servers are over loaded due to patch hype...
oof

stone moss
Jeese man putting his back into it
bold kernel

desert grail

bold kernel

Waggy tryna run some IC?

strange cobalt

sick tapir
!wiki hunter matches
broken quailBOT
bold kernel
those are barely 5hrs new... wiki will take probably more then a day to start on new items.
unique willow
Ok so i just played a couple games, and i somehow lost 20mil from my inventory as i played? what the hell happened?
bold kernel
new patch either has new bugs or something you did had higher fees then expected...
try to recreate it and report it.
gl testing tarkov
anyone wanna help a noob lolz
@bold kernel can answer questions..
unique willow
I mean i did not even buy anything but meds from therapist, all else was gear from stash. And for some great reason the game decided to take mad stacks from me. The other case was full, and the other was near as much as the now the near empty one
bold kernel
if you want an in game guide you can try the sherpa hub or lfg
rgr thx
@unique willow well that sounds pretty vague... try to do it again and report the bug if you figure it out.
stone moss
Some here will do it as well
unique willow
im actually afraid to play right now, im just going to wait for someone else to do this for me
stone moss
XD
bold kernel
suit your self.
stone moss
I'll ruin my bank account when I get home. How should that be reported?
bold kernel
Can't say if they will be wiping progress o future updates so one way or another we are likely to 'lose' stuff.
stone moss
Didn't they say next would be.a partial wipe?
bold kernel
@stone moss The report button has instructions and support will contact you for further info.
stone moss
On the launcher?
stone moss
Lol I'll figure it out eventually I suppose I k ow it isn't via forum.
Melee, nade throw, carry lots of weight
bold kernel
I imagine another wipe for economy will happen in future still for anti hatchling and flea farms though.
tardy pond
So how wacky is the new patch
bold kernel
weight doesnt seem to work
stone moss
I'd expect a full wipe pre release
bold kernel
@tardy pond check patch notes in announcments... otherwise itsnlike any other
bold kernel
@bold kernel not sure what you mean but if you think it's broken send in a report
stone moss
Mostly seen complaining about weight limit and head bobbing making people nautious.
bold kernel
nah im just running on factory
stone moss
But some say they like the tweaks
urban timber
quick question, was everyone's endurance and strength reset?
tardy pond
Yes @urban timber
stone moss
Yes
urban timber
okay thanks
stone moss
Report of money disappearing too
tardy pond
@stone moss im not looking forward to the weight changes as not being able to pick up any gear from players unless youre pretty much named does not sound fun, but havent tried it yet myself
stone moss
It comes back apparently but some sort of backend error
urban timber
now is it a bug or did they reset it on purpose
stone moss
Gotta remember eternal we mid wipe and have 0 str
bold kernel
@urban timber part of patch notes
stone moss
Prob not as bad later. Also it's ridiculous to go in as a juggernaut.
tardy pond
Yeah i know its mid wipe and strength just got wiped, but how much better will it be once you level it up again?
urban timber
okay thank you guys
tardy pond
Ive read that just a gun, some ammo armor and a rig will put you around 30
stone moss
We have to see. We are technically beta testers
tardy pond
I know
stone moss
It may be tweaked
unkempt geode
cause i need those level 3 vents
tardy pond
Like i understand you cant carry 150 kg of stuff in your pockets
bold kernel
same as lvling as pre patch
carmine swift
Not to interrupt, but I'm relatively new to Tarkov, anyone want to help me get started?
bold kernel
that is the go to method atm
tardy pond
Do you have to get melee hits?
unkempt geode
melee scavs ?
stone moss
What region are you
jovial starBOT
stone moss
Kinda matters
carmine swift
Thanks.
bold kernel
@unkempt geode ppl hide and melee each other healing to farm str n health.
the returns are slow...
bold kernel
both
bold kernel
uuuh cant say but likely
stone moss
Ok
I know I've been told most mods, Sherpas, and some of the other people are just volunteer s. Which is pretty cool.
bold kernel
alot of ppl want to help the testing grow
stone moss
Definitely understandable. It's an incomplete and glitchy game with server issues, but even still it's pretty Darn good for it not being a AAA team.
I heard their core staff only 16
violet bear
hello guys, I am trying to do the punisher part 2, killing 12 scavs with a suppressed weapon.. is there a pistol I can use?
I've tried the APB but it doesn't count
stone moss
Take your pick. Lol
bold kernel
it hasn't always been glitchy but such is development.
stone moss
pB, apb, 5.7, shrimp, tt
bold kernel
gtg gl. try the wiki? can have handy details
unique willow
yea @bold kernel i did start to think that i might be fairly braindead and might have accidentally bought like a sight for 20mill or something, but i went over to eft-chat, and my god is it toxic. But also figured out that it was not just me
rotund sand
fuck, I did the repair thing but I couldn't extract
time to try a run through
nice, got the best spawn
bold kernel
@unique willow wb so have you recreated it and reported?
@rotund sand you lookin for #beginners-chat ?
untold bluff
anybody wanna group up
rotund sand
not necessarily, but if I'm breaking a rule here, I'll keep silent from now on, no worries
unique willow
@bold kernel I don't have any recording software, and don't really feel like downloading one just for this since its clearly a bit more widespread problem that others are going to report it regardless
bold kernel
the game actually keeps logs...
so you could report and provide game files... support just like to get as many sources of info as possible.
hollow niche
anyone know wooden clock value?
fallow quarry
hey guys im lv 4 and looking for some players to help me learn the game
fallen hollow
you know how the game now adjusts its resolution or something on startup?
how do i change the ui scale cause everything is really small now
next seal
what is the money loss bug??
bold kernel
so far it's just random money being lost..
@fallen hollow the only other settings is launcher settings?
next seal
like roubles inn your cases just gone?
