Ah ok, cause the meta changed a lot
Too many pussy ass players
Hatchet runners every game
i dunno i think i haven't played the last month or so - R/L problems
i thought they found a way to stop hatchet runners?!
didn't they make it so that all Scavs (npc ones) aggro on you if you have no gun?
anyway, nothing matters, you can survive and thrive no matter what... just remember, 1 bullet to the face kills just about anyone and you can always hide ; )P
there ya go : )
they're falling for my trap
Cy@
3 down xD
cya later
4
im good all of a sudden
found 3 guns
sick
and i escaped
@open oracle they did, but scavs dont insta spawn
so people make it to, and loot the spawns before scavs even arrive
and then get killed by the people with guns
@flat cipher what is your issue?
what
Like, you need help

I should have rephrased that better
yes lol
i just want to kill scavs and unlock jaegar. i fucking hate woods.
I meant, do you need help with anything
no lmao
Ah ok
im well past needing help
Dmmp, don't walk in the open
i'm walking through tree lines and inbetween bushes
i don't know what else more i can do
Woods is full of snipers,I bet you figured that out. So if you can't beat them join them
Learn the spawns and guess where people will be and if you get shot at. Run for your life
Make sure you are always on painkillers
ok
You move as much as you need, just keep the movement silent
Just keep checking around 24/7, and don't run until your stamina is out
should i just crawl everywhere then?
XD no, move from cover to cover
so much for my metal gear rp
Do you even know where to go to kill the scavs at?
Forget that lumber yard exists, that's how you die. Only go for scav house and stay in the raid for a while for more scavs to spawn if you need
ok thanks for the info.
is there something weird with the sound system or am i getting in dead lobbies i keep going interchange and i cant hear any gunshots or anything at all
wouldn't surprise me if somethings just wrong with interchange itself
@hallow thicket yes there is but also interchange is 90% hatchlings
@daring mauve what are you trying to do, jaegers note?
I just took a mosin when I did mine, I hugged the wall, and just sprinted all the way over
Ignored most things
I'm trying to do that too
I just died because of a bad habit
or rather
I'm severely colorblind
So I have a lot of trouble with green and browns
Funny innit?
what does "heal all" mean for meds?
all parts of body
cool
and usually uses all of the heal
like it distributes it evenly or?
it uses all your med in one go, until youre healed up?
Anyone else in here find that even if you manage to get a quiet server you still die over and over again to people that bought the EoD version of the game? I just want to get machinery key for a quest and I am not closer to getting it after so many attempts. Every time I go to dorms I die! 😭 any tips?
Try taking a little loot, scout out the area before going in, take your time
Yeah I've tried to do that a couple times. I've even hid in bushes until I hear of theres any fighting going on or not. But somehow i always get killed and never see it coming. I'm going to try doing a few hatchling runs and just get the key in my secure container before i die
anyone wanna do a couple runs and teach me a map (im new to this game)
you already said that
I know
xD
hey i'm new to the game by any chance can someone help me it would be really appreciated ?
@bold kernel @vast herald which country
us
im UK, so can only do cosmic
England
I new also but know woods pretty well if anyone wants to play I'm na
whats that ?
do you need to hold the "hold breath" button or tap it?
what is a wipe?
everything is reset
oh when was the last wipe?
oh ok ty
btw do u think just farming money is a bad idea for somebody new
because im just rushing the room on factory every time on my main
and looting what i can
tuck your tail inbetween your legs.
and i make out decent money everytime
If you're making it good for you. But try Customs or Shoreline
Learn the stashes on those maps, and just keep hitting them over and over again.
Anyone I'm going to go make a stiff drink
and lay in bed.
ok i also got a key for a military checkpoint
and its worth like 190k to the therapist
idk if the key is worth to go and use or should i wait and sell on market
Uh
it's used for when you piss of therapist and you need to get in her good graces again
ok but its not useful to actually go to?
no
its literally just for a quest that doesn't come up unless you make Therapist hate you
How do u make her hate u
there are quests that lower rep with other traders
so a quest might make prapor like u a bit more, and piss jaeger a bit more
etc etc
@fallen hollow you a G
whats the diff between ak74N and 74M?
feel the same to me
@long basin hold control and drop em in anohter slot
then choose how many u want
Your a hero
no stress broski
@long basin hold down control then drag and drop
can anyone help with my frame drops like its been fine ever since till today and now im literally running on 10 fps and havnt changed anything
i just got exit camped on factory by 2 fully kitted fat backpack suppressors
fun game
Welcome to tarkov.
^^^^
bruh i just made my first 100k run
Nice
I think i like the SKS
Which map?
customs
Ah
i got a face mask worth 50k lol
Do you know the map well?
yea i know it pretty good now
Ok
customs isnt really a money making map
i basically hit gas station and the camp next to it
yea reserve looks like i have to fight more
Not really
Customs is more pvpish Reserve might be open but it's filled with rats
hmm
i need keys for those rooms tho right
Some of them
im still low level
But A lot of rooms don't require keys that still have nice items
Knight Buildings are an example
This is a short 5-8 minute loot run which will require quick moving and thinking to make work but will give you a solid idea of some prime loot spots on Reserve! Still early days and perfecting and will improve in the future or find other routes.
Live Loot Run - https://www.t...
no keys meeded for this]
for sure ill check it out soon i didnt find a map of reserve that had buildings labelled so i didnt try it out
It's fine
is woods good btw because thats how i have gotten most of my money
just used to the customs map i have everythings labelled
idk the name of it but there is a little hut
Just to give you an idea as well
oh shit yea i can just scav run reserves
idk
Mhm
if have gotten so much from it
Watch that video first
Of Pest doing a run
mhm
im too scared to go to dorms
i always get killed when i go around there
is there loot in dorms if i dont have keys?
thats the main way of making money on customs xD
yea i mainly kill the scavs at gas station and UN
Not really
pick up mostly guns and purple 1 square items
You need keys to get the most bang for your buck on customs
or in dorms
Mostly in the dorms area
Otherwise it's not worth
Unless you camp marked room and wait for people to open it
i dont even know where the rooms are on customs
ill ahve to find a map with the rooms
bro the first time i went to dorms i went up the back stairs and made so much noiuse
insta death
But yeah if you want at least 100k each run, learn reserve and you can get EZ money
Not sure
Imo no
Takes too much room if you don't have a big stash
i dont extract often so my stash is fine XD
Ok yeah
i usually just sell most of the stuff i find
Then keep them for it if you're going to be dedicated to finding and getting ammo/mags for the gu
gun*
and ive been finding sks is fine so i just buy one if i need it
It's actually cheap for how broken it can be
With the right ammo and aiming in the right spot you can one tap a fully decked person easily
the ammo the mosin shoots can be deadly
yea mosin is definitely harder hitter
cough VSS
Up to you if you want to use one gun or another
That too
VSS is also broken
SP-5 is next to nothing in cost but destorys
literally
@cinder umbra go shoreline
fat stacks and barely any pvp unless you go sanatorium
You need tons of keys tho
For you to get really fat stacks on there
or just check red keycard spawn
on sanatorium yes
but the rest of the map is filled with SCHMONEY
started doing it a bit ago, just now bought keys
@limber nacelle for sure Ill check it out I just started feeling like I know what im doing so I wanna keep goignc ustoms for a bit
so I got the mp5 with knifes and mags and ammo are cheap is it worth using?
Depends on what ammo you bought
i bought pst
best ammo i can get right now
so is it better to buy ammo with more dmg or ammo with more armor pen?
ive been going for more armor pen
yea i cant buy ap63 yeat
but once i get market ill prolly go for it if i like th emp5
ive been going no armor to save money
i feel like the armor i buy doesnt do shit
yeah
can anyone help me with making bank
i cannot i only got 500k
oh yeah you're a beginner too
slightly modded M1A, AVS
last time it cost me 300k
i'll probably just use an op sks
i mean id use a mosin but im a fucking cheap ass
i think sks is easier to shoot tho
i should try mosing with thermal
someone wanna help me kill 10 pmcs on shoreline ?
yea its not worht it imo
@snow dew sorry im noob
not even that
its impossible to have even a PU on that one
cause straight bolt handle
whats a PU?
mosin scope
oh yea I cant even find scopes to use
with the T stand
iron sights kinda suck ass tho
prapor gives you a sniper mosin in exchange of some batteries
for sure ill keep an eye out for them
tbh ive been looting scavs more than anything
not really
9mm against pmc lmao
9mm doesnt penetrate shit
Fal meta
Sure can, go for akm with 7,62 even if ps ammo aint worth much, it's doable
can he buy an AKM ?
i think i can trade for an akm
dont spray like a dumbass maybe
Do semi if you do AK 7,62
Exit camp chads i guess
i mean sks uses 7.62
Free flea made guns
so akm just for bigger mag?
so funny seeing guys call the fal trash just cause they dont know what b does
Fal is epic
Expensive sure but up close pretty much a laser beam and it doubles as a dmr
If well kitted *
And well kitted? Isn’t the fal not very upgradable
CQB
should i sell or keep my dvd drive?
Ain't really worth much and easy to find, just sell them
what's that sound that sounds like something quietly hitting metal?
I hear it often in Interchange
really far shots?
sounds close though... close, but quiet
footsteps on metal maybe
Footsteps on metal, either someone creeping on metal plate or stuff on floor, or creeping up an escalator
hm it sounds high pitched and quick, but you may be right
i feel like footsteps are usually persistent
ricochets maybe
yeah I think that's it!!!
Probably shots
High pitch would be ricochets
hatchet dude following you hitting metal with his hatchet to freak you out
lmao
would be amazing if that happened in as many raids as I've heard it. I must be delusional 🙂
Would love if someone could help me get scav kills on woods
For the quest farming part 1 do I need to do all the control panels and survive in a single raid?
No, can be done over multiple raids @spark hawk
You can do a raid for each control panel, if you die, you can use the third raid to extract to complete it
Phew thank god
Maybe I’ll try and get a group and just 5 man it. Only played factory once it was my first ever game and had no idea what I was doing😂
yeah i took one beginner in to do it
he was almost rage quitting till i told him all he needed to do for the third raid was to survive, we spawned right near the extract
Presumably he still had to kill some scavs to avoid the run through?
Besides factory anybody wanna run woods in like 45 mins I need 15 scav kill😁
What's the best way to learn how to play? Any video recommendations or anything
can sum1 help me with supply plans on woods?
anyone wanna run customs trying to loot and learn
i have a lot of keys rn for customs im pretty sure but im lvl 9 and have no keybar plus only aplha container
what is the best map?
How does health damage work? I just did 577 damage to a guy and it didn’t kill him, isn’t that over the max health of like 400
he had some good armour
Does doing damage to armor count as the damage done to body stat?
not possible to have done 500 to one guy
not straight to body at least
unless he medded in between
My game is at 70% downloaded.. What's the very first thing I should do
i can help u
if u want
i would examine everything and do some naked runs
get a feel for the game
dont try make millions of the start
I shot a guy sneaking up on me in marked room, he shot me back we both reloaded and I kept shooting him and then he got me, my death screen said I did like 280ish damage to armor and 577 damage to body and I got 29 hits so I’m pretty confused the numbers seem absurd to me
basically, you shoot the armour, that does no body damage
until the armour is depleted
did u hit anyone else during the raid?
Goku were you referring to me when you said you'd help
yeah
So does the 280 armor damage I did count towards the 577 body damage? Cause if it does then it makes sense
Nah he was the only one
Okay sure I'll tell you when it's finished installing
kk
thats what im sayin
so blowed just killed 2 geared players on woods with a mosin and i didnt even get to finish looting the first one b4 i got sniped
theres always one more
sadly
@proven fable Okay it's done
k
ok
ok
ok?
Uhh
Well factory acctuly is easier to figure out without a map
Watch a quick video
The maps can get your mixed up
Where should I start
I just keep getting shit on
Are some items only barterable? I dont see a ruble option
Which rig should I use for endgame loadout?
@modest flower what do you mean only barterable?
anyone willing to help a new guy out
shit im new and keep getting headshot by scavs XD
just downloaded tarkov, anyone willing to teach?
@modest flower certain traders only buy certain items and traders who buy that specific item wont buy it if its too fucked up ie 0 durability armor and skier/ragman
it would help if you gave info like what item
Its like 6k on flea but most you can get is 500ish from therapist iirc
@unreal path I’m a bit late but you still up?
@long basin aa batteries aren’t worth grabbing unless you’re completely empty
What level are you at and what maps do you know
Yeah just focus on quests for now and get to level ten
Money isn’t going to matter a shitload until you unlock flea market
It’s to but guns
If you’re so broke you can’t buy guns then you need to do scav runs and recooperate some funds
wtf did he give you a rr and a lot of ledxs?
Looks like a red keycard sale. That's 47,500,000 roubles.
lordy lawd
why cant I hear anything?
?
I cant hear anything from the VC
Check your Discord settings. Might have the wrong audio device selected.
does anyone not get all the money back when you sell something?
are you doing it via Flea market? there is a listing fee if you're doing it that way also money sometimes splits up when you receive it from flea market
whats the best way to minimise horizontal recoil
Where is the best place to search for a red rebel?
Shturman's corpse.
or in his stash but it's not worth it
You can also find them very very rarely in the green weapon boxes, the bigger ones
And you can get them from the hideout Scav Box. Got one from there with a 70K search about a week after I bartered for one.
Nice
Thank you guys
i heard that if youre a new player and blow through your starter stuff you can reset your account every month ? where is that option hiding.
I dont understand why you wouldn't reset if you had no money tho.
unless u have eod its not rly worth it
@blazing notch Go to the EFT official website, make sure youre signed in, go to your profile, then on the right side you will see "Reset The Game Profile" and when you go through the steps after that it resets your account. But as pope said above its not really worth unless you have the edge of darkness editioni
how does one "git good"?
Learn from your deaths is the best advice @bold kernel
hm, 90% of the time my head is being taken off from god knows where with one bullet. and 100% of the time I dont even have time to react before Im a corpse, Im not sure how to learn from that
or rather what to do to prevent it
Be more mindful of where you pass through
whats a good way of leveling up?
Do quests
I did yesterday the gunsmith tasks and it brought me from 17 to 21
And you only have to mod some weapons
Yw
Quests and getting the "survived" rating in raids are the best way to level up. Survived can be achieved by earning a certain amount of EXP in a raid be it throgh looting, searching or killing scavs/pmcs. As for gunsmith missions you assume he has access to flea market yet and/or a good chunk of cash to just buy the mods he needs to complete it
survived gives 1.5x xp earned in the raid for your pmc
Survived can be achieved by earning a certain amount of EXP in a raid be it throgh looting, searching or killing scavs/pmcs.
You need to earn 300XP to avoid the run through
That's the one
Doing both of those together is your best way to earn XP. Or just grind factory for ages
pls can someone help found loot on the ground on interchange and need help getting out
call me if u can help[
What is a good map for a beginner?
@grand hawk Factory or Customs. Factory can be brutal, just get a factory key ASAP, take out scavs, escape.
Try to do the quests first for rubles and experience. Get to level 10.
Factory is not friendly to starters. That's called a trial by fire
Usually I get pistolings or hatchlings
But it's so CQC that without some basic understanding of how the game works you'll get dumped on
I realized that
It's worth going to factory early on for the three 3M armour spawns for the first Skier quest, now you can't (realistically) get them from the flea market.
just extract when you find one
is it a rare spawn
There's three spawns to check, so that improves your odds. I don't have numbers sorry, but certainly it's the approach Pestily recommends
roger, cheers
gonna do a run or 2 at customs/willing to help new people/dm me/im level 39/4th wipe/18+ years old for invite/message me
If I try to build a gun from a preset and it says offer not found what do I do
You just need to be faster at hitting the button cause it shows you the cheapest offers, from flea, so someone else will have already bought them
cant do that anymore rip
why not

What’s a good way to lvl ragman?
Like is there anything on flea I can buy and sell without taking a huge loss?
Hello i just bought a copy of the game and i don't really know much about it but my concern is , is my hardware enough to play it smoothly laptop i5 9300H GTX 1650 16g of ram is that enough ?
anyone want to help a noob extract from shoreline?
im kinda stuck
i dont know where extracts are
@fallen estuary Run the game on the lowest settings and see. Make sure you are getting solid FPS.
@grand ermine there are maps just google shoreline extracts but you need to know where you are
@grizzled jungle thanks i will try it on low , but does that make any difference ?
i mean is it harder to spot pmcs and scavs
on reserve do raiders come and protect the train?
You will be good. Most players have their settings at the lowest, save for a few. Watch a few youtube videos.

how do you cancel animations in this game like stop ur healing?
Right click
What do the checkpoint and factory keys do
everyone WATCHOUT for @clever oyster . Will purposely split up labs group to get you killed then go loot your bodies. @tranquil wave @smoky star and @mortal meteor can attest to this
@grand hawk factory opens up extra extract on factory and there is a "shortcut" house on customs that u can open with it
The house near the Gas Station?
On the other side of the road
yes
i'm keeping that
u need use to 2 uses tho
yes
its very nice
its worth it
1 use = 3k rubels so its whatever
the factory one i'll sell
no tahts the factory one
it does both
the factory opens that house and an extra extract on fac
idk

oh its for that
yh thats not worth it
didn't even know that building existed lol
sell most keys to therapist. she usually buys for best price.
I just bought an AKM 7.62x39 and I can't find mags that fit it. Does a different dealer sell the mags?
@modest flower what lvl are you
03 i think
aight so right now idk if you cant buy clips. check mechanic peacekeeper and prapor
they should have some
Ah okay I found some thank you
Would anyone be cool with helping my do some quests and money runs? I've been trying to learn reserve but it feels like it's brutal without red rebel
As well as only having an alpha container
no
Gee thanks
@scenic anvil if u don’t have RR the extracts are horrible but in can show u around
I just heard it was the best map for rubles
Eh that’s debatable, but if you go in a with a fat rig u can use manhole extract
Yeah i'll do pistol runs on it occasionaly, but is it worth going in kitted if you dont have rr/
I mean you could use train extract or hermetic door but I personally HATE both
I haven't had good luck with those either
If u like reserve, def save up for the RR
Gotcha
I wanna learn the map but rr is just way too important lmao
Good to know tho
what would be the best map besides reserve?
I always ran fat rigs before I had RR
Reserve is my fav but interchange has a lot of money in it, but u run into more chads there
Interchange i've had terrible luck in
it feels like i barely get into the mall before someone 1 taps me with an as val
yea tbh getting into the mall is the most dangerous part lmao
does anyone know how to fix the walk key?
walk key?
sometimes i need to hit it twice to make my movement to the slowest
yea there’s a key that changes your movement all the way down
is it set on double tap in your settings?
So should I just try to learn interchange and hope i dont die?
id say play what map you like playing, both have great loot
reserve is easier to learn im
imo
Factory and customs are the only one's i've had good luck in so far
Cause i started customs
customs is a good starter map but no loot unless you are hunting PMCs
Yeah
I figured, just nothing good seems to be ther
e
Would you mind doing some interchange runs with me?
the hidden caches are a good money maker for lower levels
ill do some reserve runs with you if you want
i need a sherpa for help plz
in sherpa waiting room
@full stone
this is what came with when i bought preset
that looks better than my entire stash lmao
@topaz pasture I can help if you want
i got it now thanks tho
Pm me or ping me if you need any help.
how many flash nades to take into raid to throw around to `level strenth?
any1 know why i cant add any offers to the stock market? i dont have any others out...
im restarting rn im see if that fixsw it
Is there any set of eq settings that will help me hear enemy players better?
you dont have enough money
you need to pay 22k for the fee
you only have 200 roubles
why do you have sooo many pistols?
@bold kernel wear headphones in game like comtacs or sordins, theres a few but its mainly just preference
@fierce mortar get it now?
but is there any set of eq settings that help?
Equalizer settings, adjusting the volume of frequencies
Icy just wear headphones dude, that isnt a setting on 90% of games
@fallen hollow bring smoke grenades instead of flashes. You can get a max xp per raid by throwing 8 grenades
That’s about 65k in smoke grenades a raid
go on the flea market or traders and buy a headset (in tarkov)
Im not talking about in game settings my dude im talking about eq settings
you can do that on settings.
just found this in marked WTF
@bold kernel thats nice, i got one with a docs case, green labs card and a 2.3 mil key in one marked room
damn
how to kill reshala & co if he is sitting inside gas, and I have a 70 recoil ak without long range scope?
then just push up to him?
leroy jenkins it
how do i do the first gunsmith quest
so in that marked room there was a guy camping in the bathroom behind it.. I wooped around and shot him and hes being toxic
@grand hawk read what modifications are needed and build a weapon accordingly. OR watch some youtube tutorial.
ight
Which key I shall keep til level 10
i'd sell all of those tbh
Oh
damn nice
Oh
basically sell at level 10 he means
sell RB-GN and the marked (yellow) key on flea at level 10
all others are OK to therapist
@bold kernel that is one goddamn juicy keytool
ikr
Marked rooms kinda hot
i just got a weapons case outta a marked room
Imagine getting a key that's worth 2m as a noob and selling it to a trader for 55k
FML could've been rich
Oh dam that rb-gn key is worth 2 mil? I found one after I@killed some lvl 12 pmc
Yeah
Guess ill sell that when I get on
use tarkov-market.com to check flea prices fyi
How I get loyalty lvl up? Just doing their quests?
I’ve spent enough money and I’m the lvl but proper is still only lvl 1 cause I don’t have .20 loyalty or w e
@spark hawk Yes, just by doing quests for the traders.
Guess that means I’m going woods for 15 scav kills
Idk anymore. Ive played this game for an while and still cant seem to figure out how to play. I haven't had a single successful game in like 3 weeks. its to the point where i want to just Uninstall idk what im doing wrong. And since im like lvl 15 people think im a joke
how could i get my metabolism higher very fast
Eat a mayo at the start of a raid, then drink like 2 waters
do i have to get out for xp to work or nah
You just can't DC from the raid or go MIA
so i have to extract?
No, you just can't DC or go MIA
ok
eating or drinking anything levels the metabolism but it does have diminishing returns
That's why you only do 1 Mayo and 2 water
Exracting gives a 1.5x xp boost
Not for skills
thats just player xp
i just ate the mayo and drunk both water and it didnt go up atall
i went into a raid and did it
i'm looking for someone to show me how to play the game
sure thing
aight what channel?
can someone help me with supply plans?
looking for someone to play with ( New Player )
are night time raids really less populated ? Does it still wait for the minimum amount of players for that map ?
less
can someone help me please
What do you need help with?
whats a good build for someone with around 2 million?
I'm probably not the best person to ask, however if you join one of the Beginners assistance chats, you'll find some good, useful information
best RPK-16 build?
All personal preference. Go into your inventory, right click on the RPK and choose "edit preset". This allows you to put lots of different attachments on and find your favourite/preferred build. If you click the info tab in the bottom left when in the edit preset menu, it will show you how the weapon is changing with the attachments
awesome, thanks
no problem. If you need any help, feel free to give me or the Sherpa's a shout
@late ferry bruh i'm like lvl 37 and i'm a joke
just avoid encounters, pick off scavs, find a good way to make cash, i.e. for me its cache runs
Hey just wondering how do I play with people? I don't need a sherpa but I also don't think i'm good enough yet to go into the LFG channels yet because I am only level 16 is there like a middle ground?
All personal preference. Go into your inventory, right click on the RPK and choose "edit preset".

wehere can you see the number of uses left on an item in flea market?
very new to the game is there a place to get help?
@iron yacht and I are looking for Sherpa help if possible
we just wait until someone joins?
not too sure
@upper violet help with what
@dapper heath if it doesnt show it beside the name youll have to inspect it
@final skiff I'm just looking to understand the game a bit better. I've seen several videos but cant help to feel like I'm doing stuff wrong.
best place to farm for fabric?
@quick gate what are you looking for help on
@final skiff if its not too much trouble for you i would appreciate it.
anyone new need help makiing money
Was just about to ask actually
you guys can help new players but i suggest not holding their hand the whole way. Thats what was done for me when i started and i never got better at the game until i started playing solo.
solo is the best way to learn the game 💯
I respectfully disagree, I was playing with my duo since level 3 and learned way faster than I would have been able to by myself, even tho he was level 43 when we started playing together
Now he's 54 and I hit 53 yesterday and I owe it all to him pushing me to do quests
I also disagree. But only if you're playing with a teammate who is good/better than yourself. I find players often learn skills and tricks better playing with people who are familiar with the game. You don't have to play with them for long, but you have a distinct advantage playing with a level 10 plus friend and that is access to the flea market
Even if you are running with 5 it makes no difference all im saying is that you shouldnt hold there hand. You can play in groups if thats what suit you, but i recommend them not holding your hand. No problem with playing with others as thats what i did alot when i started.
Also, a big problem with starters is a lack of confidence (Confidence doesn't always mean that it is to a point where is not good). A good way to gain confidence is playing solo. Playing solo can give you confidence after a while. In My opinion, i feel as if confidence is atleast should be a big part of everyone's game.
Hello, would anyone like to run Shoreline and assist me in Lend Lease Quest. Have the keys for 306 and 216, just tired of running into squads.
@placid ledge posted there about 10 min ago, but thx for the advice
if you mind me asking, why dont you want to run squads?
Me? I meant it as in bumping into squads. I usually kill off 1 or 2 but die to the last.
oh i get it then
Yeah most of the time people hit up resort in a group. Can't catch a break especially since one room is east wing and other is west, so u have to travel across.
Confidence comes when you feel confident, playing solo might've given you confidence while it may discourage others
confidence can also come from having experience in encounters.
Experience in encounters won't help most people gain confidence if they lose 90% of their firefights
Anyone else not getting into games?
i've been getting into games fine but im mostly on factory
any sherpa wanna help me through labs?
Me and my buddies all took 7 minutes to get in, and now we’re all rubber banding and getting hit by shots that none of us hear
Such stupid
The servers are fucked wow
@spark bramble You're unlikely to get many Sherpa's helping on Labs as it's such a high-level area. You're better off starting offline raids
And then finding a group. Sherpa's are here to help with the start of the game and to help beginners. Going on Labs as a beginner would not be recommended
hmm mkay
I defiently wouldnt consider myself a begginer but at the same time I do need help with labs specifically just because of how high entry it is I suppose I can try to go solo i was also going to start with offline raids regardless no way im risking that
Anyone else have a completely fucked server?
Yeah, I'd suggest offline raids to begin to learn the exfil's, and then going to join one of the Looking For Labs groups as they'll be high-level/high-geared players
Quick question. I have a few high-value keys, like San.316, San.303, Dorm 214. Are they actually worth much, or should I sell to the Therapist for some early-game cash?
im not very good at remembering much key locations, but you can always use thw wiki.
Is the loot in the locked rooms worth me hoarding keys?
I've been playing for 2 days, hence my query in the first place.
I don't really know enough and don't want to regret selling uber-rare keys later on
just know that dorms is one of the most popular places in customs
also the scav boss can spawn there as well
you can always go dorms, but you can get killed alot going there
I figured that's something I should save till I get into a team
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Dorm_room_214_Key
Not the correct result? Use !wiki page 214 for a direct link or !wiki search 214 for a list of all hits.
Oh. Doesn't look too exciting. No miniguns or anything.
nope haha
but
there is a safe
that has the chance to get you something good
id say if its not worth atleast 50 k keep it
Selling red rebel, 1-1.5m below market price, if you need one let me know we can set up some sort of trade, pm me thanks 🙂
Room 214 key's worth 61.5k, West Wing 303 is 123k
west wing keys are on shoreline and usually the resort is always packed with pmcs or scavs
if you can sell the west wing key
just sell dorms for now also
Would these be worth holding onto until I can get onto the flea market, or probably not?
did you check for market price?
I'm only level 6
ill check flea market price
Hello, anyone want to do a pistol reserve run? I am level 6
on flea market the dorm room 214 key is 61k
if therapist offers 61.5k for the dorm key sell
Thanks. How about that west wing 303?
123k on market
So exactly Therapist prices. Thanks
yo, i got a decent amount of ammo but no guns for that ammo. have few weapons but no ammo for them. what should i do lmao
@manic egret do some runs and get to level 10 and buy your ammo
have a question and sorry if its a dumb one but im new to the game and pc gaming in general. whenever i move ill see lines move up my screen warping the image on screen. this happened on old monitor and the new one i got today(MSI G27C4). My graphics card is a MSI Geforce RTX 2060. i saw a older post on reddit saying it was anti aliasing but his screenshots looked different and didnt warp the image. sorry if this isnt the section to put it in
Sounds like V-sync to be honest that's causing screen tearing
does anyone know how the sensitivity in this game is scaled? trying to convert from kovaaks aim
whats good gear to run on customs to complete checking for prapor
Naked
my wifi has been great all day but 3/4 runs i’ve disconnected and have died bc i dc to server 🙃 idk if it’s a me problem or
hey anyone here maybe able to help ?
What should I do with this lot ?
i think something really bad just happend, i have the quest where i need to turn in 2 backpacks to skier.
it took 1 of the bagpacks from my items case , now my filled lucky scav box is gone also with the backpack anyway to recover ?
why does the game do this
Same here @manic egret
eft down?
its an update
how long
ridiculous time to do it in all honesty. Mid-raid and I had blacked legs and couldn't get to the exfil in time, so instead I decided to go centre of Interchange and just get myself killed by scavs 😦
Guys, what is that red circle sort of light thing?
it's the attachment
if you click control and right click you can get rid of it and toggle the laser
I think it's a spread reduction
hey guys, is the server down?
basically gives you the same hip fire spread as a normal laser. Except its barely visible to enemies
is that a holographic site on the as val? looks like such a weird combo lol
Yes there is a current update apparently
is there a way to get a scav role? I identify as a scav
i need korean comrade to play tarkov with me when the server get back on
cuz of the ping i cant play with other usa ppl
is offline raid avaiable during this maintanence?
Is there any way to speed up hideout buildings or no
no
@calm wraith no. The game won’t launch during update

oof
What's the best pistol to do pistol only runs on maps like reserve>
imo 57
I use an M9A3 with AP6.3 ammo @bold kernel
what is the cheapest way to level strength (to 3)?
I expect I'll have to buy smth heavy and drag it around, but any specific items/quantities?
walking with weight 48.75 and up hitting a friends legs with melee and him doing it to you while you heal, and throwing nades
im solo :/
48.75kg is at level 0. Required weight goes up 0.13kg with every level.
And strength levelling is just a mess.
then just play the game normally and bring a few nades along to learn how to nade and kill people
ok, thanks for the tips
Hey some one can help me , I need find guys to play with I try to many days and can’t find any one ,because I play in Asia ,so some one know where I can find chat like this and can’t find players that play in Asia ?
Maybe post on https://www.reddit.com/r/EFT_LFG/. I google'd and found an Asia Tarkov Discord with ~120 members, can PM you the link
herro
is small S I C C case worth the 1.8M it is on flea?
oh wow, but is worth it? like what can i store in there?
keys/money/small items etc? or something else
I dont really see the point of getting a sicc case like bringing a keytool is all I need, if i get a keycard or something im definitely gonna make space for it lol so I dont see the point of bringing one
im level 12 can i still ask for help
I never play shoreline lol I hate the map
