ty ty

[south dagger]

just scav in run to dorms, u might get lucky, then pmc, rinse and repeat

[bold kernel]

wheres factory far corner

[spark hawk]

That’s a way more up to date map then the one I’ve been using 😂

[regal plover]

I like using this map. https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Customs_Interactive_Map

[rose lichen]

can someone help me do the Prapor pocket watch quest, i keep dying on customs

[analog mulch]

what should I run for my first mission?

I was thinking going with a pistol and no armor to just test the water

[regal plover]

Sounds good Ran

Just know; you're going to die. I'm not tryin to be pessimistic, but that's how the first raid goes for 98% of new players

[sonic lake]

I like you plugging that map

unless you're pestily then you wipe reshala

[regal plover]

It took a lot of work and is useful Spyder

[sonic lake]

more ppls need to know about it

its really cool

n gud

[regal plover]

Any suggestions for it?

[sonic lake]

not really
tis gud

[analog mulch]

I decided to wait and go scav

[regal plover]

That's a good call.

Good luck!

[plucky axle]

Rip every run of customs I always die to a geared 5 man

[subtle basin]

how do scav spawns work in this game? when playing as a pmc that is...do they spawn in at the same time as pmc's or is delayed?

[sonic lake]

yes

some spawn just a little after pmcs spawn, and the rest spawn in waves

[subtle basin]

ohhh that explains why sometimes i dont come across any at all, ty

[plucky axle]

Yeah it's interesting

[flat cipher]

You get the first lot after the first 5 mins has passed I believe

Shortly after normal scavs spawn

[ocean ruin]

anyone wanna help a noob out

and like discord up

[rose lichen]

can anyone help me w/ the bronze pocket watch quest, i keep dying on customs

[coarse garnet]

@rose lichen I would gladly be a meatshield for you. Most likely won't kill them but I am very loud.

[rose lichen]

alright i may actually be about to do it but if i dont Ill hit you up thanks alot anyways

[warm tinsel]

sup guys

[plucky axle]

Hi

[warm tinsel]

whats going on

[plucky axle]

Life

[warm tinsel]

you sure because it just seems like a lot of death as of late

[plucky axle]

Indeed

[valid mulch]

why isn't this working for gunsmith part 2?

[modern flare]

guys does shturman really have 35% spawnchance? i did 30 raids now and saw him once

with no other players around

[dire rock]

@valid mulch try unfolding the stock

[valid mulch]

didn't work

[modern flare]

@valid mulch why is there a sight on it?

[valid mulch]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

tried taking it off and it still didn't work

[idle bluff]

You don't have the standard muzzle.

[valid mulch]

@idle bluff can you elaborate?

[dire rock]

some quests bug out and you need to restart your game before you can turn them in

[valid mulch]

holy fuck

restarting it worked

[idle bluff]

AKS-74U standard muzzle is this: https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Izhmash_5.45x39_muzzle_break_for_AKS-74U_(6P26_0-20)

You don't have it on your gun, which is affecting stats.

[valid mulch]

I spent fucking half an hour

[dire rock]

his stats still match the requirements dont they?

[idle bluff]

They do in this case, but if you were following our gunsmith guide on the wiki but was missing the muzzle, that would have done it.

Based off the image he posted he created his own build that works.

[dire rock]

then why couldnt he turn in?

oh

maybe if id read things lol

[shy fable]

why doees my insurance always comes late

I receive an insured item after 2 - 3 days

lol

I thought it was 24hrs

[spark hawk]

How many secure containers can I get through quest? 2 epsilon and kappa?

[dire rock]

1 epsilon and a kappa

kappa from completing nearly every quest and epsilon from completing the punisher

[fast rivet]

@shy fable prapor insurance is like, 48-72 hours

therapist insurance is 24-48 hours

[dire rock]

prapor is 24-36

therapist is 12-24

[spark hawk]

Guess I’ll have to work on punisher quests then. No way am I completing every quest

[daring mauve]

Is there a way to cycle the boltnon a gun? Like pull it back and extract the round from the chamber?

[distant grotto]

double click on the gun and pull the bullet out

if there’s no bullet n only question marks inspect the chamber first

[ancient falcon]

normal scav one shot headshots me while I'm bunny hopping.

wtf is this AI aim

from my south east about 20 m away

I just heard his mumble and dead

[spiral dirge]

Scavs are either hellen keller or John wick it seems

[long haven]

I HATE THIS FUCKING BUGGED AS GAME I Lag out after killing a full gear as a scav, I reconnect and I get shot by some kid

ass game

fuck it

fix your shit tarkov

[bold kernel]

Rude game 🙂

[spark harness]

so

i spawned into a raid with some person i invited from the lobby

and he dropped me a sicc case

full of keys and keycards

idk what to use them on

this was last nigth

im only level 4

[regal plover]

What keycards?

At the very least keep them until you've unlocked the flea market @spark harness

Do not sell them to the traders

[spark harness]

ill quickly look

ok ok

so there is

red

blue

violey

green

black

and 5 normal keycards

also

has arsenal storage

managers office

and weapons testing area

are they good?

[regal plover]

So every keycard in the game.. Heads up, the red keycard is the most valuable item in the game. Currently worth about 52 million roubles on the flea market. Violet around 13ish million. The others are also worth a few mil at least. All in all you've got about 80 million worth of keys and cards.

[spark harness]

is that alot?

[regal plover]

More than the vast majority of players.

[spark harness]

lol

like i was gonna sell it to one of the traders

but ok

[regal plover]

Yeah. Don't do that.

[spark harness]

oh ok

so

how do i use these cards

[regal plover]

You can use them on the map Labs

[spark harness]

is it like factory

[regal plover]

You need an access card to get into Labs (single use key card). And it's larger than Factory, but the AI is much more difficult. There aren't any scavs, there are raiders.

Lots of heavily geared players too.

That key card package you got given has given you more money than you'll know what to do with.

Muskrat, do you know what the Black Lotus card for Magic the Gathering is? That's the equivalent of the Red Keycard. People farm hundreds of hours for it.

[ancient falcon]

does nvidia filter lower fps?

[echo merlin]

Anyone willing to teach me interchange?

[last hedge]

Find in raid items > https://i.imgur.com/XxVYeUT.png

[wintry moth]

can i buy the armor for the supplier quest from the fleamarket or do ineed to find them in raid? https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Supplier

[regal plover]

@wintry moth If they're not specified as "Find in Raid" you can buy them.

[wintry moth]

how do i know if they are specified like that?

doesnt look like so, does it?

[regal plover]

It will say "Find in raid"

[wintry moth]

ok thanks

[tawny quartz]

can someone help me with my inventory, i dont know what to sell or to keep

[last hedge]

can someone help me with my inventory, i dont know what to sell or to keep
@Eternal Daddy#8027

start by selling whatever you aren't going to use, and you don't need to find in raid.

[stoic mica]

Why i cant buy Thicc case on flea market?

[upper iron]

brO IT'S 11 MINS LEFT IN THE RAID AS SCAV AND KILLA IS UP SUCK MY PP

[drifting grotto]

For gunsmith 6, I cant figure out the right combo for the RSASS and Im running dangerously low on rubles trying to figure it out. My main issue is the recoil sum and ergo, with me switching out the 18 inch barrel for the 22 inch, I get the desired sum but the ergo is below what;s needed

[upper iron]

sadboihours :{

[vague mulch]

!>gunsmith part 6

[drifting grotto]

I already checked the wiki

[vague mulch]

Hmm, that's not the right command.

Did u follow the guide exactly or?

[drifting grotto]

yes

[vague mulch]

Hmm, send pic of it gun

Gunsmith - Part 6 is a Quest in Escape from Tarkov.

[drifting grotto]

I already checked the wiki
@drifting grotto

[vague mulch]

I followed it and it works out fine

[wide hound]

I need some help with some Therapist missions, the one where you need to find water in dorms and the one where you need to find the gas analyzer in a raid

[drifting grotto]

22

18

you want the modding menu?

[silver hornet]

@wide hound For the gas analyzer, you should check the OLI store in interchange. For the water, you need to go to Customs with the dorm 206 key.

[wide hound]

no clue about the one in interchange as I dont play the map

and yeah I could prolly go to dorms with that key

[vague mulch]

Big green store on the side

[wide hound]

I just need someone to watch my back

I always die as pmc

[vague mulch]

#pvp-lfg

[wide hound]

: )

I dont even have the 206 key

[drifting grotto]

best luck is hoping fence has it or just be looking in jackets a lot

this makes no sense

[vague mulch]

Or kill scavs. They have keys sometimes

[drifting grotto]

snek?

[vague mulch]

?

[drifting grotto]

did you see the image?

[vague mulch]

Yeah, is that the stock stock? @drifting grotto

Or some other stock?

That may be the reason why ergo and recoil poopoo

[drifting grotto]

whats the stock stock? People only sell the receiver on the market

[vague mulch]

Wut

[drifting grotto]

??

am I dum>

do people sell the whole ass gun on the market?

[vague mulch]

Set it to operational weapons

Yeah

[drifting grotto]

where that option

[vague mulch]

😂

Top left next to the search

U gotta click and set it

[drifting grotto]

but yeah.. this stock has +12 ergo and -35% recoil

[vague mulch]

Check the original

I think it's a magpul gen2 or 3

Cos I bought the whole gun of flea then chucked on the parts and it was alright

[bold kernel]

is there a way to strip gun presets

if i wanna start modding from the bottom

also whats the difference between charging handles

[drifting grotto]

oh my god that took forever

[vague mulch]

Some add ergo @bold kernel

Like the one stock on Adar gives no ergo. Hk extended is +1. Then raptor is +3

[bold kernel]

any other differences

[vague mulch]

Some look cool

Makes ur gun look more gucci

[worthy heart]

hello how do i join the chat it is locked for me

[upper iron]

Which, voice?

If it's voice, you're probably a teamkiller, or a troll, so you've been muted and are unable to join the voice calls

If it isn't, then no idea :D

[onyx trail]

hey i am looking to get started downloaded the game earlier and i got no idea what i should be doing

[misty saffron]

go to the trader and accept prapor and therapists tasks

[onyx trail]

okay

and then just try to complete them ?

[misty saffron]

yeah

if you need help just go on youtube and see guides for tasks and other basics like controls

[onyx trail]

alright

is there any point in bringin alot of gear for these first missions ?

[misty saffron]

no only bring a pistol and extra mag

[onyx trail]

no extra bullets?

[misty saffron]

and customs is great for starting off

[onyx trail]

okay customs it is

[misty saffron]

just have 2 - 3 full mags

[onyx trail]

alright

[misty saffron]

and you can see maps for the extracts and what not on google just search the customs map eft

[onyx trail]

ahh okay nice

xD

[misty saffron]

here

[onyx trail]

oh thank you

[misty saffron]

k good luck man youll die alot but trust me once you learn it gets really fun

[onyx trail]

yeah i had to reset my profile cuz i died 6 times earlier

[misty saffron]

lol

[onyx trail]

oh one quick question what is the better thing to go inn as ? a scav or PMC ?

and what is the difference between those two

[worthy heart]

@upper iron i cannot join beginners assistance i am new to the game and server.

[upper iron]

Beginners chat you mean?

[worthy heart]

nvm

we good

[upper iron]

Lol

You're in that channel :p

[worthy heart]

xD

[digital sand]

Is the game down right now its not letting log in

[raven gazelle]

no dont think so

[clever heron]

Yeah it is

I can't log in either

[calm anchor]

joined a raid and i cant see my friends unsure why

[digital sand]

Error 213

[raven gazelle]

well my game is fine

[celest compass]

it just fixed itself for me

the launcher needs to update

@onyx trail as a scav you spawn with a randomized set of low to mid tier loot that you do not contrlol, your extracts are also different in each map. You also are qutoe on quote friendly with scavs and to an extend scav boss bodyguards

as a pmc you bring in your own gear and you shoot everyone

[onyx trail]

ahh okay

[distant condor]

I found that back-to-back scav runs are good for building up a stash of lower-tier gear, but you don't get any XP so you shouldn't only do them.

[marsh jacinth]

Its also a good way to make a little money as a new player

[raven gazelle]

u do get xp

???

[marsh jacinth]

not for your pmc

[distant condor]

^ Yeah that's what I was meaning. My bad

[marsh jacinth]

you get scav xp

[raven gazelle]

oh ye ok

[distant condor]

What does that do btw? I never figured that out lol. I'm also kinda new.

[marsh jacinth]

Your scav has skills the same as your pmc

at least thats what ive found out. Im still quite new aswell

if you go in as a scav check your skills tab next time

[distant condor]

Hmm. Neat

[marsh jacinth]

when i say the same, i mean like the same concept. they dont share the same levels and stuff

at least thats what it looks like to me

I could be wrong

[onyx trail]

is there a map for scav extraction on customs ?

[sly stream]

the normal map should have them all

[onyx trail]

this one ?

[serene gust]

yes

[onyx trail]

oh okay so green ones works for both ?

[serene gust]

double tap o in game

it'll tell you available extracts and time remaining

[onyx trail]

what dose that mean ? only some of them work?

[serene gust]

yes

depending where you spawn

[onyx trail]

i am running out of guns

[serene gust]

extract is generally on opposite end to your spawn

[onyx trail]

ahh okay

[spark hawk]

I’d recommend going to one that doesn’t have ????

[serene gust]

patience, and knowing when and when not to fight is essential in tarkov

it's hard to get established at this point in a wipe tbh

[sly stream]

how often are wipes?

[onyx trail]

what is a wipe

[raven gazelle]

should i keep paracord or sell it?

i think the next wipe is in a few months

[sly stream]

wipe is when theres a big update and they wipe your inventory and your pmcs stats n stuff correct me if im wrong

[fair flint]

Hey, just return to play tarkov last week. I have a questions regarding leveling up skills.
How do I up my strength?

[sly stream]

throwing grenades i believe

[onyx trail]

i have insured some of the things i went inn with

when do those things come back to me ?

[spark hawk]

If nobody extracted with them and insured with prapor it’ll be 36-72 hours I believe

[mossy frost]

depends on the one u insured with ica be 12-72hrs based on gear and other stuff

[steep depot]

Could I get some help with the pocket watch quest

I got the key but it wont let me unlock the truck

[quartz pendant]

Anyone have any idea how the shots hit is calculated? it keeps saying I missed most of my 30 round BT shots even after the dude has 0 armor and is dead

usually is carrying level 5 as well so I am lost

[sour plume]

i think if a bullet fragments it counts as landing 2 shots

but otherwise 1 shot landed = 1 shot landed

if the stats screen is saying you missed most of your shots, you probably missed most of your shots

[quartz pendant]

I just find it odd since most of the shots seem to land especially if he is dead afterwards

and his armor is toast

BT is not great for anything above level 4

[sour plume]

it doesn't take very many shots to shred high lvl armor

like ye it won't pen gen4 on the first shot, but it will after a couple

[quartz pendant]

ignoring the huge blood splatters BT is not a great round against heavily armored players

I usually end up having to 0 the armor before I kill them

[distant condor]

@onyx trail For me it was about 24 hours.

I insure with Prapor

[sour plume]

BT can pen most c5s in 6-7 shots

c6 it can do it in around 8

although the pen table isn't updated for Slick

but im p sure Slick is a lot lower dura than fort

and it goes through fort in 8-9 shots

[quartz pendant]

on the wiki chart it says that 5-9 shots to pen level 5 and level 6 is 13-20

usually the don't tend to go down easily either way because after I go to loot the armor is usually either near 0 or completely broken

BT is classe 3 but BP is classe 4 which is interesting

[olive turret]

isnt that a different bp thats class 4?

[sour plume]

idk who made the wiki ballistics chart but it can be misleading, NFAM has done actual calculations with every round and every armor in the game up until like 2 patches ago

[quartz pendant]

oh yeah I made a mistake there

both are classe 3 with BT being better armor pen wise

[sour plume]

actually he did both, weird

his own data contradicts his explanations

[olive turret]

mfw a solo level 13 player i saw just 180 1 taps me when i saw him running away

[sour plume]

don't see him, shoot him

@lament sundial

[lament sundial]

What is going on

Oh lmao

[sour plume]

don't see him, shoot him

[lament sundial]

https://streamable.com/pw2l8

Obligatory clip

Lmfao

[sour plume]

lmao

[lament sundial]

Too me ages to find I make too many clips

[sour plume]

it still kills me

[coral pulsar]

Anyone able to help with Interchange and getting the gas analyzers? 😮

USW / USE

[olive turret]

@coral pulsar you need more than 1? i thought you only needed 1 found in raid then you can buy the other 3 off of flea

[verbal summit]

prolly not lvl 10

[coral pulsar]

Not sure, if its just one, then I guess just finding the one.

[quartz pendant]

holy fuck

someone was hiding in a dark corner and leg meta'd me to death

scared the fuck out of me

[strong hamlet]

Hi all, is anybody else struggling with "delivery from the past" factory part? The fact that you can only try it once before doing the customs part again is so frustrating I'm beginning to give up hope.

[analog rain]

I'm still struggling with the Bronze Pocket watch retrieval, I've gotten the watch several times but I always get killed when trying to get out of there.

It's pretty rough.

[strong hamlet]

I managed to do that at night, but at least that is just a 1 part quest, the fact that if you die ( very likely in a shitshow map like factory..) you have to run customs again and get the item once again.. that's so brutal.

[spark hawk]

Hol up if you fail the factory part you have to retrieve the pocket watch again?

[olive turret]

two different quests dangle

one is talking about the pocket watch quest the other is talking about delivery from the past quest

[spark hawk]

Oh I thought delivery ffrom the last was putting the pocket watch in factory office or somthing

[olive turret]

there is no factory part for pocket watch quest you just straight up give prappy the watch. in delivery from the past you retrieve a document from customs office then put it in a side area near factory office

[spark hawk]

Ah I must have thought they were the same quest. My mistake lol

[olive turret]

We all good those are some of the very first quests so its hard to remember them

[spark hawk]

I’ve honestly only done the pocket watch quest for prapor and I’m working on his 15 scav kills on woods

Personally hate anything to do with customs. I still need to go to dorms for a few beginning quest

[odd raptor]

Need some help with this quest. https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Supervisor
the key doesnt spawn in this location for me. Does anyone know where it spawns?

[raven gazelle]

can i do quests as a scav?

[odd raptor]

no

[raven gazelle]

ok thanks

[odd raptor]

only the "find in raid" do work

but the kill or loot objectives nope

[raven gazelle]

ok

[marble latch]

guys QQ is it possible to do online raids with a friend?

*offline

[lethal narwhal]

i dont think so

[silver hornet]

nope

[verbal summit]

@odd raptor just buy it 5head

[silver hornet]

was about to say

[wise tartan]

any vets wanna help a noob?

[silver hornet]

#pvp-lfg

[olive turret]

@odd raptor its not a guaranteed spawn there iirc just buy it and turn it in

[exotic portal]

what am i supposed to do as a low level player?

[bold kernel]

any people looking for squads

[quartz pendant]

I just finished a raid but it is loading blackscreen

it has been doing this for a while do I restart or what?

[queen laurel]

tarkov is down?

[spark hawk]

Looks like it! Just as I sniped a pmc in the face on woods I got dumped 😭

[cosmic briar]

Yes, Tarkov's host provider is having an issue

[lethal pond]

Servers are down, no wipe.. refer to #eft-announcements

[noble sand]

Thats some krummy news

[cloud quarry]

Are quests really worth it? Because i just eant my epsilon case and then ill just go ham. But i also feel like kappa case may be worth the time

[languid basin]

its down to you tbh

[lethal pond]

@cloud quarry the kappa is 3x4, its worth it

[cloud quarry]

Ok but whats the best way to get it

Its my first wipe snd i feel like i dont get enough of a reward of doing it so it just becomes boring

[vernal anchor]

You get Kappa by competing almost all quests in the game

[placid juniper]

@odd raptor just buy the key

[spark hawk]

I’m gunna assume the loot I had when the servers got a poop I lost

[vital basalt]

@cloud quarry It's kinda late for a kappa, thats why im not going for it either.. You can go for epilson which is a 2x4?

[bold kernel]

Its a wipe? I thought just the servers are down

[hexed thicket]

the servers are just down, it's not wipe @bold kernel

[mint plinth]

When are the servers gonna go on?

[silent temple]

When they start putin em back on

[lethal pond]

No wipe

[cloud quarry]

@vital basalt ye im really close to epsilon but i hate shoreline such a bad map

But its my first wipe and i started like 2 months ago so im just hopin it wipes in the beginning of summerbreak

[regal plover]

@cloud quarry There should still be quite a bit of time before a wipe happens. An announcement about it I believe is supposed to come next week.

[cloud quarry]

Yeah i heard about it but i hope that they wipe asap cuz i got no important studies to do

[noble sand]

I'm stuck on Prifle data loading

[vital basalt]

@cloud quarry I hated shoreline so much. Now I only play that and reserve. You'll get the hang of it real quickly

[regal plover]

Shoreline and Reserve are my 2 go-to maps right now.

Great loot and PvP.

Gonna scare me when a pack of cultists come busting through 5 doors at once and rush me with poisoned knives.

[sly ingot]

@pastel agate imagine naming urself after weed when you have dirt weed

thats hut asf

[noble sand]

just killed 2 fully decked out guys in labs... about 1.5m in loot

[versed cipher]

is this normal?

[lethal pond]

Yes

[versed cipher]

do i change the DPI setting thingy for both then? 😮

[lethal pond]

What are you trying to do?

[versed cipher]

change the high DPI setting

[lethal pond]

You only need to do that for EscapeFromTarkov not EscapeFromTarkov_BE

[versed cipher]

okk ty ❤️

[hollow torrent]

If anyone wants to learn shoreline pm me

[gloomy rose]

any tips for finding shturman using a sniper or from a long distance in night raid without thermals?

[carmine gust]

So I'm stuck in an out of the way place with no nades..... Best option?

[wide harbor]

looking for some people who kinda know how to play as i really dont

[spark hawk]

What’s good stuff to sell to peacekeeper?

Or should I just buy stuff from him?

[full stone]

Just buy

Best/easiest way to do it is just buy dollars from him

[valid frigate]

How many ways is there to get onto the top floor of the 3 story dorms?

[vital mortar]

2

middle section and south side

[valid frigate]

Thanks. thats what i thought. means i didnt clear something

[vital mortar]

got shot?

[valid frigate]

yup

could see the inner stairs and the door and got shot

[devout dock]

why are some scavs fucking gods. Like one tapped me. I was full health, face sheild and vest

[vital mortar]

it's possible to get shot from second story dorms, don't remember the view to get shot from though

[devout dock]

shoot me thru a gated window and blacked my arms

[valid frigate]

was crouched in the center hallway, he had to be in a room or maybe i didnt check the entire roof. lessoned learned

[devout dock]

also is m2 vest good?

like its 60 hp

rig*

[valid frigate]

Uwu, possible it was a player and had B type ammo. has much better penetration

[vital mortar]

it's decent like the other armor rig in that class

[spark hawk]

What’s the price of a defib on flea

[vital mortar]

200k i think

[spark hawk]

Noice. Found one in ultra med room

[vital mortar]

remember ledx can be found in there too

[spark hawk]

That’s what I was looking for 😂

[devout dock]

is it just me or is this game sometimes so fucking annoying

like

i gear up pretty nicely

im doing good

found morphine and IFAK

a mbss backback and a mk3 rig

not bad for a scav

moving carefully thru gas

then last second I see the muzzle flash of a suppressed gun hiding behind a shelf and screen goes dark

[vital mortar]

If by carefully you mean creeping, then it's a given. Gas station (guessing customs) is one of the hot zones besides dorms

[oblique forge]

i think im close to my tolerance limit for this game. i cant complete a single pmc raid. i get killed out of nowhere every time. its not worth my time i dont think soon. i know customs and how to get around but tired of just dying out of nowhere it isnt fun

i really want to like it and play but i cant tolerate 2 months more of the same thing lol

[flint fern]

Dying more than 50% of the time is completely normal.

[oblique forge]

100% of the time lol isnt much fun i have some gear i'm able to do some scav runs and have about 2 mill in cash from the sales, but anytime i do a pmc and use any gear its dead w/in about 4 minutes and everything is gone anyway

[flint fern]

Half if that is pathing, but more importantly, WHEN you move, and how fast.

I am only level 29, with 82 PMC kills, but I am at the point now where I can win up to 1 v 3 fights.

[oblique forge]

it will take about 2 years for me to get there and past level 4 now but i dont think i have the patience for it lol

[flint fern]

For me, the barrier was confidence, and conviction in the movements.

People say it a lot, but there is something important about having no fear.

[oblique forge]

im past the point now where i worry about stuff and am doing the paths i know to check for loot but constantly just dying with no notice isnt my idea of fun

[flint fern]

If I had to sum up my game so far, it would be:
50% condfidence
20% movement
10% skill
20% luck

Now for some quick easy gun/armor loot I just go wipe Factory.

[oblique forge]

ill likely just get wasted in there the first time someone comes around a corner since its so close quarters

ive not tried it really, just offline a bit messing around

[flint fern]

You have to be able to hold angles and peek at the right time in factory, or go full charge.

[vital mortar]

Same, i was dying every time when i started out, then i got more used to the movement, the paths, not going for loot straight away, always assuming there are more than one enemy. Survival rate was 25% last week and I've pulled it up to 37% now. Only been playing for a month and a half

[flint fern]

It's not an easy map because of all the angles, but at the same time, it gives you some control about where you can and can't get shot from. Unlike a map like woods/shoreline.

[oblique forge]

i think my account is about 40 days old but im still @ 0%

mainly doing just scav runs a bunch 98% of the time. finally fine w/ doing pmc, but they're worthless sofar

[flint fern]

My survival rate is only 39%, died a LOT at the start.

are you east coast NA?

[oblique forge]

im i TX, so am using the NA servers, but CST

[flint fern]

I could do a raid on east coast servers, since I am EU, but west coast I would get ping kicked.

[oblique forge]

let me see which servers i have selectred

i remember that is a menu item choice somewhere isnt it...? im forgetting where

[flint fern]

in the launcher

[oblique forge]

ah thats why...let me check

yeah looks like i just selected all the USA servers and have been using that since the beginning

[flint fern]

Do you wanna do a raid?

[oblique forge]

sure that would be cool if you'd like...i can gear up with whatever you think is fine and just follow your lead

[flint fern]

scroll down to duo voice #12

[spark hawk]

What’s a good pistol to run for factory? I’m just trying to kill pmc with it for a quest

[bold kernel]

I prefer the TT pistol

But it is really preference

[zenith compass]

From my experience, the Grach fills the role quite well for a 9x19mm pistol, with the high magazine capacity and mount for attachments
If you're looking for something more viable against body armour, the 5-7's a great choice

[bold kernel]

I will also say, I really geared up in factory to finish the prapor mission to drop off those documents in the office, kept dying with a hatchet, I went in fully geared ready to go to war with the whole factory, I don't see a soul

It's like bruh....

[spark hawk]

I’ll def need a high mag capacity! Hopefully just run into a few hatchlings and gun them down lol

[silver hornet]

5-7 has 20 rounds

[bold kernel]

IS ANYONE WILLING TO RUN WITH NEW PLAYER?

not really new new but pretty much no one has showed me anything really all on my own

I mean what I have learned in factory is that you either run into guys who are fully geared or hatchlings

Or a hatchling with just a pistol as you suggested

yes i agree

And you can hop in a beginner assistance channel mate, voice comms is key if you are wanting to run with someone

[humble pulsar]

sit down big fella

[agile hamlet]

anyone wana guide me threw factory, i cant fuckn find this gas analyzer 😦

[formal nova]

It’s a random loot item, not a guaranteed spawn anywhere @agile hamlet

[agile hamlet]

the problem is surviving while salvaging

[timid rain]

i find a lot of gas analyzers on interchange in olli

[fringe hearth]

@agile hamlet The gas analyser does not have to be found in factory, people get confused by the optional part of the task

interchange is a good spot to hit up like guy above me said

[agile hamlet]

ohhh alright thanks.

[maiden coral]

what's a good wat to complete operation aquarius pt.1

I always get killed going to dorms

[fringe hearth]

@maiden coral how well do you know the map?

[maiden coral]

pretty well, I've done like 50+ raids on it with pmc and scav

[fringe hearth]

and you usually get big red spawn i assume

[maiden coral]

big red?

[fringe hearth]

massive red barn looking thing that has an office

that needs akey

next to crossroads

[maiden coral]

no, I spawn a lot by the tower and the storage area

so, close to the red barn but not exactly

[final glade]

guys i've been struggling a lot in this game, and i'd like to say i'm slowly improving but i'm not so sure lol

[exotic halo]

Any tips on improving?

[final glade]

i definitely feel liek it's not really an aiming problem but more of a spotting people problem

like playing with mny friends they just spot people so fast

[exotic halo]

Completely feel you ^

[final glade]

theyre liek oh i see a guy down the road

and i have to like scope in to see them lol

[exotic halo]

I honestly just can't get the groove of the game down

I've had the game for 2 years and i honestly just suck, any other FPS game and i'm great but it's tarkov and i just need some help 😂

[final glade]

yeah, i find im fine with playingf wwith friends becuase they can spot the people and then i'm a good shot

but i actually enjoy playing alone more

i just cant do anything lol

ive only been playing for like a week but i don't think i've extracted a pmc run that i have encountered players in

[exotic halo]

I think i'm around the same depth ^ however my friends are terrible too so you've got the upperhand

[final glade]

my friends are quite good it seems

they usually smash people they fight

and i've actually gotten a decent amount of money

but thats just playing with them

[exotic halo]

I've had 200k for the past 4 days, I've played everyday

[final glade]

ahh, i have around 2.3m right now

i get a good bti from scav runs though

i have a run i do that is safe money

im tryingto go for a red rebel so i can do reserve more often

[fringe hearth]

@exotic halo scavs are a good way to get you some money, place i like to go with them is customs because i find a shit ton of barely looted PMC's around the place, couple of days ago i got an RSASS and decked ak's just from a 5min scav run

[exotic halo]

I've tried manot, I keep dying like alot

Honestly dude i just need someone to teach me the tricks of the trade

[fringe hearth]

well here is something that sounded very bland to me but is actually useful, that is nailing a map down in offline mode

I have taught myself very useful vantage points from just walking about offline with extra scavs

[final glade]

my rpoblem when i paly alone, liek for instance a run i did on reserve, i spawend, walk to the top of one of those grassy mounds at the edges of the map, and instantly died from idk where

i feel like that happens to me so much where it just efels pointless to que up

[gritty sand]

i need beginners assistance

[fringe hearth]

on what?

[gritty sand]

my friend gave me his account and i don't have a lot of money

apparently i am supposed to do the punisher part 5 so i can get a container

i have to kill pmc's while wearing certain stuff

[final glade]

oh

umm

you should probably not do that

[fringe hearth]

well if your friend is not going to use that account

[final glade]

you're really late in the quests you should just learn the game first

[fringe hearth]

i recommend restarting the account so it's fresh

[gritty sand]

but he said his stash is "fat"

[fringe hearth]

how much money does it have anyways

[gritty sand]

it has 5000 roubles 4 euros and 10 dollars

[final glade]

that is definitely not fat

[gritty sand]

but he has a lot of these case looking things

[final glade]

ahh i gotcha

[gritty sand]

and he had this black helmet and tan chestplate that i took in with me

i lost it though, i couldnt even see because of the helmet

[fringe hearth]

well trust me restart the account

if your friend does not play on it anymore and it's full on yours now

[gritty sand]

ok

[fringe hearth]

that way you are back to the beginning

[bold kernel]

Can someone send me a labs callout guide? thanks

[thin lotus]

or sell the whole stash

[final glade]

yeah just starting halfway through in this game just sounds like a distaster

its way too complex

i just started playing recently and if i had started with liek a full stash id have no idea what was going on

even more so haha

at the moment i'm jsut struggling because i don't really know how to improve

[fringe hearth]

just watch guides like i did

[final glade]

i do watch soem guides but watching some insane playuers just mulsh through pmcs doesnt hlep me that much lol

[fringe hearth]

don't watch guides where it's them getting kills

watch guides of them explaining the map and spots to go and have an advantage

[final glade]

like i watched a pestily guide recently, it was him starting a new accoutn andt he first thing he does is rush apartments kill people and then kill reshala lol

yeah maybe, that doesn't help me spot people unfortunately, not sure what can help that lmao

[cloud quarry]

Im almosr done with my intelligence level 2 in my hideout but do you guys think its worth it? I want to create mor passive rouble income . Ive also seen scavcase and i think i will be needing it to missions like handing in 4 found in raid carbatteeys

[fringe hearth]

intelligence level 2 gets you bitcoin miners right?

[exotic halo]

Anyone up for running a few runs with me giving me some insight

[cloud quarry]

What do you guys think is the best way to get more passive income? And if bitcoin are worth it

Yeah thats right manot

[fringe hearth]

bitcoin farmers are pretty good imo

[glass cloud]

Moonshine is great

[exotic halo]

Btw, just a curious what's the deal with the Assistance voice channels and people streaming?

[glass cloud]

70-80k for the water filter, 100k for 2 sugar

For a 300k moonshine

[cloud quarry]

I just thought about having 1 graphics card and then just farm the water collector then moonshine and slso workbench

Will be a bunch of work but i think its worth it

[rugged umbra]

Hey Fellas, any recommend ammo for 5.45x39?

Budget but should be good.

[compact basin]

BT/BP are nice budget rounds

[glass cloud]

l dont suggest bp for any intentional use

Always BT or higher for 545

[inland marlin]

i kill ppl with bp all the time

[silver hornet]

BT has 5 more pen than BP but it's also a tracer round

[lament sundial]

BT is the best budget round for 5.45

[wintry moth]

can i run as a scav to find prapors camp and the quest item to unlock him or do i need to go as pmc?

[snow hedge]

quest unique items dont spawn as scav

[wintry moth]

that explains why it wasnt there the last time..

[wintry moth]

is there any use for an empty metal fuel tank?

or just sell it for 500 rubels?

[chrome nova]

no use, this is why you would want to use expeditionary one

[wintry moth]

its the only one i found so far 😦

[undone blade]

Could carry it around in raid to gain strength

[chrome nova]

i am level 45 and still do not know how to refill metal tanks, if its possible at all

[wintry moth]

ill sell it

[chrome nova]

i remember there was exploit on Customs, but I think it was long fixed now

There is a lot plastic one spawns on Reserve

[oblique brook]

Anyone know decent places to find car batteries use to come across them before I got the task can never find any

[lethal narwhal]

oli in interchange

you can also make them in hideout and they count as found in raid

[oblique brook]

great thanks man

take a look at hideout first

[chrome nova]

found many of them in Yeger stashes

or you take tank battery and disassemble it in hideout, you will get 3 car batteries from 1 tank

[shut tartan]

So I just started playing and tried to escape from Customs on offline mode with some maps I found online and I couldn't figure it out. Does anyone have any tips to help me navigate these maps?

[mighty patrol]

well you either start left and have to go out right or the other way around

@shut tartan circles the exist where you can go out

[chrome nova]

no other way than walk it and look at the map

[mighty patrol]

but yea the exist have to be available to you. also i missed old gas station, which is another one

[shut tartan]

So i know i can double tap o to see what exits i need to go to. I thought i made my way to one but it said i needed to pay 7k to use it, was i just at the wrong exit?

[chrome nova]

guaranteed exits are ZB1011, Crossroads and Trailer Park, all others can be used once and might not work for you

for the car extract you have to pay on every map

[mighty patrol]

u sure smuggler boat is once? o.o

i thought every1 could extract there as long the campfire was up

[sonic lake]

yes

[pastel falcon]

need help finishing the 4 pmc pistol kill, stuck at the last kill

[cloud quarry]

just go factory

thers always other pistolings at office

[pastel falcon]

tried that, every other pmc is like fully geared, im only level 10, should i just run up to their face and shoot em?

[cloud quarry]

test reserve if u havent theres alot of hatchlings there

and i mean you can always go a bit more geared. i would go fiveseven and regular armor lv 3+

[sonic lake]

APS/B

G18C

get it done in one factory raid

[latent kayak]

any recommended guns for running customs as my main map?

[random eagle]

Mp5?

Collect 8 brown knives and trade them for mp5 , that was my load out for custom once upon a time

[latent kayak]

hmm thx

[random eagle]

0 recoil too , all you need is a sight

[cloud quarry]

ore just a lightly modded ak

[random eagle]

^^

[latent kayak]

i'm assuming you are only running bs or igolnik?

[cloud quarry]

mp5 can be problematic especially in dorms

[latent kayak]

money isn't really a problem just that i never know what to use

[cloud quarry]

no i always go bt if i go ak

i have started using tx-15 and i like it

[latent kayak]

my friend uses that gun and it performs amazing

also love the sound. i will also try out the ak too

[cloud quarry]

are you a beginner or what? if you have money go for an ak until you can fund a raid with better gear

[latent kayak]

i'm actually level 30 xD

i just been running around with m1a and wanted to see what other people use

[spice pecan]

@latent kayak if you like the M1A you should try out the RSASS. I got my highest xp game of all time yesterday with it on reserve (44k xp)

[sonic lake]

m1a better tho

[spice pecan]

in what way?

[sonic lake]

price, recoil, versatility uhhhh mods, overall performance

[spice pecan]

price

sure

overall performance, i would argue

this is the one I made

[sonic lake]

you got 50 rounders in an m1a

you can build it for ergo or recoil

has higher ROF cap

also you might wanna repair that sass soon lmao

[fierce orbit]

hey guys quick question here - if i insure backpack fill it with loot and than toss it in bush will the backpack with loot be returned or just backpack ?

[sonic lake]

just backpack

[spice pecan]

Just the backpack

[fierce orbit]

damn :/

[sonic lake]

lmao

trying to insurance fraud and get a loot delivery

[spice pecan]

Would be pretty dope tho, I would bring in like 4-5 backpacks per raid

@sonic lake just built an M1A with a similar setup. Slightly better recoil (Vertical is next to nil, Horizontal is the big one), but much worse in the Ergo department(15-16 points). With that, it the RSASS cost about 200k-300k less in the full kitted form

So, idk use whichever you feel like lol

[sonic lake]

can get an m1a to 49 recoil

m1a just has a lot more versatility

thus better performance

ofc people play better with different guns but

[spice pecan]

Hey man, I like both guns. Highest kill and XP games with the RSASS, Longest streak was with the M1A. Both are great guns

[sonic lake]

when just looking at it from a stat standpoint m1a is the better gun

not gonna tell people what to use tho

[spice pecan]

Since both are the same caliber, which round do you like using

?

[sonic lake]

for .308?

[spice pecan]

Yep

[sonic lake]

m61/2

whatever I have on hand

[spice pecan]

Fair enough. I usually sell my M61 and 62 and default to M80. I like the higher flesh damage (M62 is close on damage, but I cant stand tracer rounds)

and it is hella cheap

Usually by a few thousand at at time when it dips below 200 rubles

[sonic lake]

m80 is FAL ammo

[spice pecan]

?

[sonic lake]

epic spray ammo

[viscid storm]

anyone want to help me with woods quests? USA

[sonic lake]

hold down m1 with no regret

[sterile raptor]

Any new players to the game? Who wanna make some easy roubles? 😄 You need to be from EUROPE. DM me

[spice pecan]

1 shot taps on Raiders and players is nice (and cheap with m80)

[sonic lake]

I prefer m61/2 for semis because consistent 2 hits for everyone, whereas m80 struggles against bigger bois when in semi

im a slow clicker lmfao

[spice pecan]

lol fair enough. I will say it struggles against face shields, but thats when I just start spraying

[mint spade]

hi i found a purple key 1million worth nbobdy bought it and now I don't find the key back

[sonic lake]

huh

usually therapist is the best place to sell keys

[mint spade]

I sold it on the market

[spice pecan]

For the high priced ones, it usually goes to the flea for me

[olive turret]

IT will come back in the mail just chill

[mint spade]

*tried to sell it

[spice pecan]

though most things are better to sell the Therapist

[olive turret]

normally you sell most keys to therapist tbh

[spice pecan]

It will come back soon ish

[mint spade]

that's the prob

[sonic lake]

jus wait homes

[olive turret]

how long ago did it expire?

[spice pecan]

You will get a message from Ragman saying it didnt sell

[mint spade]

2 days

ago

[fierce orbit]

next wipe ? @.@

[autumn delta]

can I just ignore traders without putting myself at too big of a disadvantage?

[olive turret]

i mean quests are one of the easier ways to level up due to their exp but if you want to ignore that then just go pvp

[sonic lake]

you're putting yourself at a disadvantage

[autumn delta]

well I just really don't like some of the later quests, but I know the traders have some of the best gear. Like how big of a disadvantage?

[sonic lake]

everything you buy on flea has a huge premium

[long haven]

how much does therapist buys lucky scav junk box for?

[sonic lake]

not as much as she sells?

[long haven]

I mean yea

but how much she buys it for?

[spice pecan]

like not worth it amount

[digital sand]

how much is a

RB-VO key

[keen ravine]

25k

[digital sand]

So far this are all the keys i have gotten for free

[patent pike]

dang

thats a pretty nice collection

[shy fable]

is bitcoin needed for any quest?

I have 3, do I just sell them?

[silver hornet]

just sell

[twin plume]

sell to therapist, not to flea market

[topaz sluice]

[wild tiger]

Hey! Im also new to the game and looking to possibly group up and run customs with someone?

Been pretty much only playing customs to get the map down.

[clever crow]

ayo! I was wondering if there was a specific time frame that this game is set in. (and specifically if it limits the guns that the game can implement). Anyone know?

[spark hawk]

Are you asking if they are gunna add laser blasters later?

[sonic lake]

no laser guns

they only add shit that exists irl

like the food

and medkits

and items are all stuff you can get irl

[silver hornet]

@clever crow if I had to guess, either 2010s or 2020s

[timid rain]

@wild tiger you still need a teamate?

[torn sandal]

what map should i run as a beginner?

[spark hawk]

Tarkov takes place in 2028

[naive atlas]

@torn sandal customs for the quests

[sly stream]

whats a good map to loot

[torn sandal]

im done

2nd time getting 1 shotted by scavs

i have litterally no money left

[timid rain]

@torn sandal run scav to get money also if you miss shots on scavs get behind cover and peak another corner because they will aimbot after a few

[torn sandal]

should i run scav on factory?

or customs

[mighty patrol]

reserve or interchange

[timid rain]

what yae said

[torn sandal]

alright ill try a reserve run

[naive atlas]

he is new though

[mighty patrol]

reserve cause alot of people snipe pmcs from 1000m and never loot them so who knows :3 or you might be able to kill some raiders and grab even more loot. interchange mostly cause of fuels people forgot easy 120k

[naive atlas]

he does to normal scavs, he wont be able to kill raiders

imo just learn to play by doing the quests

[torn sandal]

im poor now thought lol

i only have like 130 k

[naive atlas]

shoreline cache and interchange imo is better than reserve for new players

[torn sandal]

i dont know those maps though

alright ill try a shoreline run

[quasi warren]

if anyone can help me with some interchange tasks i would like to do some runs with him, pm me

[bold kernel]

Hey everyone! thinking of doing some ULTRA Medical runs later today and sharing the loot with newer players. If your interested, feel free to shoot me a DM

[wide harbor]

So I just killed this fully kitted guy in customs with some decked out guns. I am still really new so do i sell the guns or use them and see what happens?

[wild falcon]

what lvl are you

[wide harbor]

level 8

[wild falcon]

dont use them wait until ur level ten

then sell to flea

[wide harbor]

these are just a few of the things from that guy

[wild falcon]

yeah wait

[odd bobcat]

was he wearing 3m armor and a vulcan

[wide harbor]

yeah he was just aiming down sights so i took my shots and got lucky then RAN to extraction

[bold kernel]

@fickle kettle not 9mm

how does one "git gud"?

[violet hornet]

Anyone have a nice guide or any tips for farming scavs on shoreline/doing the humanitarian supplies quest for Peacekeeper?

[spark hawk]

I mean you could use those guns for practice. You can always build them again later when you have the money

[tame badge]

if any noobs wanna link up and learn together dm me lmao

[topaz sluice]

sry,but i dont think the game is for me, how can i refund it?

and by that i say my pc is trash

[vital mortar]

No refund

[sonic lake]

no refunds allowed sadly

[devout dock]

the axe run went well but also horribly. Every single fucking limb was blacked out except my right arm which had 12 hp. I found an adar a vepr and an ak

I had pain, stress, tremors, and I could barely move

I got into a fight with a player hopeing they had meds but I could not aim and one of his shots caused bleeding

And somehow I got 3 kills but I couldnt even loot them because I kept getting into fights consecutively

@toxic belfry SHerpa hub is best place to get immediate help. Putting in an official request for a sherpa through the EFT website is best way to get an actual Sherpa.
@bold kernel Anyone with the label Sherpa on OEFT or Sherpa Hub is an actual in game Sherpa. The helpfuls and experienced members are not. Some of the mods on Sherpa Hub are also Sherpas, but not all of them.

The issue Im having at the moment is gear and money. I got the 80 USD kit and Ive blown that up twice lol. Im left with a couple hundred rubles and no gear any more. People kept jacking all of my gear so no insurance claims. (so many lost SKS)

[celest condor]

If you are sending in a Sherpa request make sure you include your full discord ID, i.e. StinkySmurf#7603

[mighty patrol]

well you can always just run with what you get from scav tbh

[celest condor]

@subtle wing You in game? or at least able to be in game?

[mighty patrol]

most people wouldnt bother stealing stock aks either

[bold kernel]

didn't mean that they all aren't all sherpas there I just meant a lot of helpful people are there

[celest condor]

@bold kernel Cool, just clarifying in case.

[subtle wing]

@celest condor Ive got a bit I just got out game can get back in for a bit

[celest condor]

excellent, want to learn a simple loot run so you can make your own money from now on?

[subtle wing]

@celest condor absolutely

[celest condor]

go to Sherpa waiting room, I can grab you from there.

[mighty patrol]

mind if i watch ? just curious where you farm it

[coral pulsar]

Anyone helping with some quests? 😮 gotta get Jaeger and cannot for the life of me extract successfully

[bold kernel]

I may do some helpful runs as well just helping a streamer run a division 2 raid and grab some followers on twitch for myself, but after I would be down

So worse case let me know and I'll hop on to help you guys

[celest condor]

@mighty patrol Want to join me.

[coral pulsar]

I should add, NA servers are where I am at

[mighty patrol]

as in ingame or just live?

[celest condor]

in game.

[coral pulsar]

I mean, technically both but the servers are the important part :p

[mighty patrol]

sure starting up the game

[coarse yarrow]

anyone want mission help?

[bold kernel]

What level you need to access flea market

Thanks

[final skiff]

[cerulean zephyr]

Any suggestions on getting money or what to do when low on it? I find myself getting money then loosing it all within a day spending it all on gear

[lapis mauve]

scav run oli, should get good stuff at least every other raid (if you have flea blue fuel sells for around 90k after you use it)

[mighty patrol]

try to loot reserve or interchange without spending money on gear.

[cerulean zephyr]

So what do you suggest I should bring it to lower my cost when going into raids?

[lapis mauve]

if you are super broke just run you scavs gear

its free

most trader stuff is not great at level 1, when you get flea vepr km can be modded for cheap.

[mighty patrol]

Mostly taking an armored rig cause people tend to leave it, earpieces so i can hear them running and a stock gun with a sight should do the trick

[cerulean zephyr]

Aight, appreciate the tips.

[mighty patrol]

you could take a helmet but you prolly gonna get shot in the face anyway

[lapis mauve]

the armored rigs with small inventory get left behind more often. the big ones are very good to grab to let you loot more

yeah, to save money skip helmets

they are just ricochet chance until lvl 4+ anyways, and lvl 4 isn't even that good

[mighty patrol]

i use 6b5-15 armored rigs btw, still 50k but you get it back from insurance if u die

[lapis mauve]

all the old style russian rigs are very cost effective and good to get back in insurance

[mighty patrol]

if u find a fuel , propane or motor just put it in your container first, also water filters better to have 2 then 1 fuel

even if u die, you make profit

[pseudo veldt]

is this a good loadout for shoreline

[ancient falcon]

how does a raider kill me in the thorax if only my head was showing. I was in the balcony of train station and he was inside the station on the other side. I peaked for a second to check and he instantly killed me

[flat cipher]

because scav targeting is fucked

and if they see you, they can hit anywhere

its dumb broken

[pseudo veldt]

does the term raider refer to a player scav and a pmc

[ancient falcon]

oh i see

raider is its own class

They are geared guys that spawn in reserves when you use the hermetic bunker lever. Same as the guys in labs

[final skiff]

bc raiders are broken

gluhar has aimbot too

[pure girder]

11SR,
21WS are op

@flat cipher can u re use them

if there like 1 key left

[flat cipher]

They have 15 uses

[spark hawk]

How much are those keys? I’m not near my pc and mainly run IC.

[bold kernel]

Is tarkov doing hardware ban or IP ban? Or both

[oblique heron]

Does anyone know where jaegers camp is?

besides "woods"

lookin for specifics here lol

[oblique heron]

ty

[serene gust]

NP

[oblique heron]

got it. Much appreciated

[pseudo veldt]

what is the best helmet that can reliably take a mosin shot?

[oblique heron]

The best way to survive a mosin shot is to not get shot with the mosin

[pseudo veldt]

and also the sky is blue

[trail cedar]

Its white

[long basin]

Hey

What’s the best gun for shredding someone up close ? Like early game ( maybe buy off traders )

[trail cedar]

In my Exp. M133 shotgun from scavs. not sure what ammo

[final meadow]

Hey, I wanna buy some fuel for my hideout on the flea market, but all the containers are empty. Whenever there are new offers I double click them to check if they have fuel. But if they do, when I click to buy them there's an error that they have been already sold. I've scrolled down and all the older containers are empty too. Is there some trick? How does one buy fuel?

[tulip wigeon]

@final meadow MAGIC

[bold kernel]

i need help my game is stuck on the title screen where the pine branch is

and i dont know what to do

its just stuck

[tulip wigeon]

im a guess you meet the requirements to run the game

[bold kernel]

yes i do

[tulip wigeon]

correct

ight i was just wondering

the only time this has happend to me i found out i was reading a stick of ram

[bold kernel]

YOU WERE READING A STICK OF RAM?

caps

[tulip wigeon]

wasn't reading is what i ment to say and thats the day i found out i was stupid

[final meadow]

@tulip wigeon So is there some setting to filter out empty cans or is everyone just checking every single one and then hope to be the first one to buy it?

[lapis mauve]

@pseudo veldt if you mean a ricochet then any with high ricochet chance. if you mean actually stopping the bullet then you need lvl 5+ to stop lps/7n1. the ap ammo types like snb basically ignore any armor.

yes, you need to inspect each can

its annoying

[tulip wigeon]

@final meadow if its above 50k inspect it if it has no gas goto the next one atleast thats how i do it or just go grab some from reserve

[oblique heron]

just broke 1 mil for the first time ever bois

[final meadow]

I just saw someone posting 40+ plastic fuel cans for 45k each (usually they are 80k +). They were all full.

I managed to buy one 😄

before they all sold out

[lapis mauve]

wtf

[tulip wigeon]

good

[final meadow]

and I was spam clicking

[tulip wigeon]

just takes time and some money
