Left Alt

#

It should show in your settings

shell aurora
#

I do that but the scope is still wobbily

#

left alt changes the scope

bold kernel
#

Check your keybinds in the setting menu then

cyan tinsel
#

Rock passage is only open if there are flares. If it’s open, the flares are there from the beginning of the raid and don’t go away

#

Default steady scope is Left Ctr I think

tiny dragon
#

anyone wanna team up?

random barn
#

im new here, my level says 14 but let me tell you that was a hard 14 levels lol, just looking to play with people, im still fairly new to this game

frozen sparrow
#

level 7, chilled, sitting in beginners assistance 2. just looking for people to raid with to aid the learning process 🙂

subtle fern
#

is a radeon rx 460 good for this game?

pallid pebble
#

@random barn @frozen sparrow I feel the same way and I'm also a new player getting into the game. Would be down to go into some games with you guys anytime

radiant nova
#

anyone wanna do customs

#

fairly new only lvl12

silver hornet
stark fable
#

no hes fine if hes new he should prolly look here

wraith tide
#

so do any scavs spawn in at raid start or do all scavs, even AI spawn in after ten minutes?

regal plover
#

AI spawn at set points throughout the raid instance, including the start.

bold kernel
#

is it still worth doing quest?

#

or is wipe near?

dire rock
#

wipes in like 2 or 3 weeks

#

hopefully anyway

wraith tide
#

is there an update coming on may 8 or just the discount?

rare burrow
#

dont bother with quests with wipe coming

bold kernel
#

What if your still low level?

amber stag
#

unless its a quest like "kill scav's at customs" because it will help you learn maps if you don't know them already

rare burrow
#

if you're low level and new I would just try and get familiar with the game and maps

#

quests are easy, but it takes practice to learn pvp

bold kernel
#

Alright sounds good cause i have the kill scavs at interchange so ill finish those up but not the fetch quest!

rare burrow
#

what lvl are you fern?

bold kernel
#

17

rare burrow
#

thats not too bad, you have access to flea market at least.

bold kernel
#

Yeah ive been playing since the last wipe but my fucking house flooded so i had to wait off on playing tarkov 😦 but im getting into the groove

rare burrow
#

you can still do quests but now is a good time to get better at killing other pmc's bc if you die a lot its nbd since wipe is coming

#

just takes time to get into it, you'll be fine

bold kernel
#

Thanks apprciate the advice its honestly what ive been doing cause holy moly its been crazy fighting these end of wipe thicc boys

rare burrow
#

how much money you have?

bold kernel
#

who wants free shit? i'm not playing this game until wipe comes because i'm bored of running m4 and as val every single raid

#

im down if your down

#

name?

#

in game

#

AND-o

#

make sure you have space in your secure container

#

gotchu

bold kernel
#

Do all raids start with maxmimum PMCs?

vital mortar
#

not necessarily, in case of extreme long matchmaking, it's possible the game will start with whatever people are in that same session or you could end up alone, tried once where i was alone

bold kernel
#

Gotcha

spark verge
#

-+

bold kernel
#

what's the pso eyecup good for?
seems to tunnel vision the scope and make it look smaller

rotund falcon
#

ergo i think

#

@bold kernel

cyan tinsel
#

I don’t like it

#

+1 ergo

#

but it makes the scope horrid to use

rotund falcon
#

yeah its not worth it

#

now if it reduced sway

thick harness
#

Are you on max fov @cyan tinsel ?

#

That doesnt look like a max fov screenshot, it should be bigger on max

#

and reduce the size of the cone

#

but yea nobody uses them

tawny pulsar
#

whats the best laser flashlight combo and why?

elfin pendant
#

im in a raid, dropped my bag to run faster and the bag disappeared. what is this?

desert hull
#

@elfin pendant could be someone found it (possibly a hacker)

#

could also be it fell through the floor

elfin pendant
#

like literally in front of me

#

it disappeared

#

i dropped it andd it was gone

verbal tangle
#

i need help

desert hull
#

so yeah either hacker or dropped thru floor

elfin pendant
#

i had like 500k in loot there

#

wtf dropped thru the floor thats a thing?

desert hull
#

its a thing in most games yes

#

but yeah occasionally happens in eft

verbal tangle
#

i need help

desert hull
#

ask

elfin pendant
#

and its not extracting

#

can it be bugged?

tiny geyser
#

dbl tap O to make sure you can use that extract. Yes not extracting can be a bug

bold kernel
#

It can be bugged leave the area and go back to it

#

I did have it happen before as a Scav and I had to run away a bit and then go back to it, but yea you should also hit O twice

radiant prawn
#

@elfin pendant ^^^ look at this. But also I am not fimiler with that extract. May take paracored or money to extract there

bold kernel
#

how tf can one get the pistol pmc kills task completed

#

i tried on factory

#

can't even camp cuz i get rushed by scavs it seems

#

even tho completely quiet

#

i kill them but run out of ammo quick and also give my location to players

#

You can get it doing any map really

#

Go to someplace you prefer, I did mine mostly custom dorms

#

it's pretty much the only exclusive close quarters map

#

Usually got hatchlings too you can kill pretty quick

#

But it is all close quarters in there

#

i suck so i need loads of tries

#

everytime i went dorms i died to chad spray

#

heard ppl saying the easiest way is on factory

#

That's fair it can be hit or miss as I said find a map you feel confident on and find a spot in CQC to fight in

radiant prawn
#

@bold kernel go nighttime dorms

bold kernel
#

lost 5 pistols so far

#

down to 1 mil now

#

And a lot of people prefer factory for it aye, but as I said don't go with whatever else wants, if I learned anything in tarkov it is don't go with the flow, go with what you prefer

#

Also what pistols are you using?

radiant prawn
#

Bunch of pussy boys in there I am lvl 10 and not good at the game so I did a run on there and actually got some really geared player kills

bold kernel
#

pm and tt

#

How have you lost a mil from that

#

You going in fully geared?

#

no just pistol runs, didnt loose the 800k doing this

#

but im gonna go below 1 mil if i keep this up just by buying new pistols

#

Oooh you said down to a mil, but I will say this find some map you like and just find a spot you know people/hatchlings will go to and post up

#

i'm 1/5 cuz i managed to dome a 400k geared player on customs

#

no helmet

#

However I would also say just do normal runs, if you are insuring your pistols you will get them back, feel like I got 50/50 on getting them returned

#

and wow xD brings all that gear just to get domed with no helmet...powerful

#

i dont really care about losing them if i know ill get the task done at the end of this xD

#

yeah man he had dat green sniper and a modded gun forgot what it was

#

150k rig/body armor

#

and some other goodies

#

The green sniper really even isn't that good, hell I will use if needed, but prefer other snipers to it. And that's fair still if they aren't bringing a helmet going to guess either a idiot or new player

#

he was lvl 62

#

xD

#

Yikes

#

maybe he was stupid rich

#

pre wipe playstyle

#

looking for someone tp help me learn customs

#

I mean there are some folks you call loot goblins for a reason

#

Literally just make themselves target for you to get their gear, sounds like a loot goblin

young void
#

is m61 really worth the money over m80?

gentle stratus
#

depends on your chadness

#

if it looks chadly, yess.

raw vault
#

i went onto factory as soon as i got the quest and got all 4 kills so i guess its luck

flat cipher
#

@young void one has 68 pen, and one is cheap and doesnt

#

M80 is very good if you're poor

young void
#

im not poor tho I can defs afford it

#

just wondering if it really makes that much of a difference

flat cipher
#

One has a 50% chance to pen class 4

#

And the other overpens class 6

young void
#

well most ppl are running like level 4 or 5 rn

flat cipher
#

Most people are running 5/6 if they have money

#

If you can't afford 61, use 62

young void
#

this late into wipe a lot of ppl can afford it

#

nah I can afford m61 easy

#

it's just I dont wanna overpen and have it do less damage

#

kinda like the Igolnik vs BS 5.45 situation

flat cipher
#

You will not pen 5/6 with m80

#

61 is a guaranteed, 100% two tap to chest

red flicker
#

Hell, if you don't want to splurge on M61, get M62

flat cipher
#

It's probably the best ammo in the game, honestly

young void
#

I guess I'll just use M61, I see a lot of guys running tactecs now

#

ty

bold kernel
#

m80 will shred a tactec

red flicker
#

If you click fast enough before you get headshot because you didn't upgrade

viscid vector
#

m61 can one tap a thorax

#

through anything

thick harness
#

M80 can one tap unarmored to the chest m61 cant, its a trade off. I prefer M80 most of the time

#

m61 doesnt do enough flesh dmg to one tap a thorax

lapis mauve
#

lets put it this way, if they have slick m80 kills them by shooting chest 5 times. m80 also kills them by shooting stomach 5 times. m61 is 2 chest shots with any armor

#

m80 also takes 3-4 shots to kill an altyn

flat cipher
#

M61 is massively better

#

If you can afford it, 100% worth the cost

lapis mauve
#

m80 also doesn't really one tap lvl 4 anymore, some level 3's even

thick harness
#

If you are hitting every single shot to the thorax I agree, I just feel like so many shots hit limbs in firefights I prefer higher flesh dmg. I know im in the minority on that opinion tho

#

I use 7n1 with my svd too, flame me for that lol

lapis mauve
#

m80 is 10 more damage

#

if that bothers you use m62, its 1 less damage than m80

bold kernel
#

guns are over rated, use a melee

Any new players in NA need some help getting started? All i ask is have a decent mic and don't be stupid lol

bold kernel
#

i embody stupid

cobalt coral
#

Ok so I need some help, im betting i wont hear any advice I haven't already heard but hopefully ill be surprised. I keep dieing straight away, it doesn't matter where I spawn whether I play it aggressive or stealthy I always die immediately.

#

Like less than 2 minutes into the raid more often than not

hearty tide
#

you're probably picking bad lines and walking into sight lines of other spawns

#

what map?

cobalt coral
#

I've been playing nothing but reserve and I'm under the impression that I have a pretty decent idea of where most of the spawns are by now

#

But I always just either seem to get shot right off spawn anyway or get funneled into the shittiest areas imaginable

hearty tide
#

reserve is a fairly "endgame" map and a lot of good players play there, they know the spawns and they know the lines people will take from the spawns to the loot spots

#

they will be watching those spawns

#

Hey can anyone help me get a mp - 133 ive been playin for 5 hours and have gotten non

bold kernel
#

what level are u

sand breach
#

8

#

i got the game 3 days ago

bold kernel
#

i was gonna say if u were 10 u can buy them off flea and complete the quest

sand breach
#

yeah

hearty tide
#

a lot of players start playing reserve right off the rip instead of learning the early quest maps. sometimes you get lucky and get out of reserve with a bunch of expensive shit

sand breach
#

yeah

lapis mauve
#

reserve is very easy to spawn kill people

sand breach
#

i have just been having trouble getting my hands on one

hearty tide

what map are you playing on @bold kernel

#

me?

hearty tide
#

sorry i meant @sand breach

#

my b

sand breach
#

uh factory and customs

bold kernel
#

for the mp133 quest i think customs or fact is the easiest

sand breach
#

thats the best luck for me

#

yeah i get them sometimes but every time i get one i die lol

hearty tide
#

yeah customs i see them almost every raid. your best bet is the area right next to ruaf gate extract. usually 3-5 scavs walking around over there

#

not too too much traffic of players

sand breach
#

okay

#

thanks

@muted sluice
No. First number (6.5) is a min magnification, second one (20) is a max magnification. 50 is a lens diameter in milimeters.

@wanton trail can you elaborate?

Usually on any game discord there is chanel for every country. Because it's been on hour i try to seek if there is any french here, and i can't find any. and i don't like wasting my time

I don't think there is a way to do that on this server, but I don't spend too much time in here so I'm not sure

@wicked sphinx would know better

Because on forum there is no one.

Well i guess i will just surrender the game then thank for helping

There is no channel for individual country in this discord server. You will have to find a french tarkov server yourself, which there should be

@vital mortar ty for confirming

Is there some sort of visula q. To beable to tell apart pmcs from player scavs?

Im having a hard time because i hesitate to shoot a player when im a scav, do to the fact I want to be friendly towards other player scavs

Very noble.. You can mostly tell by the clothes

#

And if you can't tell, then watch their behaviour, time/risk permitting

#

And if you still can't tell, then blast em

vital mortar
#

@bold kernel yes you can wear armor, as long as you have the scav vest and balaclava, any other equipment is allowed

olive turret
#

@marsh berry other than observing if they have 2 weapons, if they dont act like a scav other than that no other way to tell except once they're dead

marsh berry
#

ok, THANKS GUYS.

@olive turret how do you tell once they're dead?

@left root if you look inside their inventory and they have a slot for alpha container

@summer jacinth its better to sell those weapons from raiders or mod for yourself at least. those premade are trash af

thx for the advice

prisma stag
#

hey folks, quick question: my own movement sound is quite delayed. like, I've turned around and when I finished the turn I hear my footsteps. the same with bushes and so on, this always make me nervous because I think that someone is really close to me. my headset is wired so this is not Bluetooth related delay. not sure if there is a delay with other kind of sounds. any thoughts?

vital mortar
#

depends on how long the delays are, when turning around the upper body turns first, then your feet follows which may seem like a delay. But if it is more than one sec then somethings wrong

prisma stag
#

well, it is less than second or so, so this may be the case, thank you

vital mortar
#

as for bushes, it may be because you expect sounds when the gun reaches it first, but the sound first start around the arm/shoulder part

prisma stag
#

about bushes - it is more like turning in bush. bush sounds while walking are understandable

vital mortar
#

ye the sound in bushes is not instantaneous, i think the sound register when the legs/upper body moves and not only the arms

prisma stag
#

thank you mate

pure notch
#

I have metal tanks but how do I find fuel?

prisma stag
#

you have to find full ones. in raid or on flea, but you have to check every offer (can't remember if condition filter works on fuel)

#

so there is no option for refill (but there was a bug few patches ago when you took empty canister in raid and return with filled one)

muted juniper
#

^

#

you can just sell the empty tanks

strong jolt
#

Do you guys think night raids are still generally safer? Or are they more dangerous now cause everybody's going in with thermals and heavy gear

#

cause wipe was announced

bold pumice
#

depends on the map tbh

vital mortar
#

depends on maps

bold pumice
#

but most people who do night will bring NVGs at least

some people just run night raids for quests

#

And it's rare for people to bring shit gear with NVGs

muted juniper
#

so id say its somewhat safer

#

but not that much

#

not safe enough that it justifies being blind

brisk rain
#

@strong jolt i love doing night raids

strong jolt
#

@brisk rain yeah they're fun but right now I'm trying to do The Guide

#

so I'm just trying to survive basically

brisk rain
#

just be a rat and you will be fine

strong jolt
#

I think on woods I'll go daytime but still bring a thermal

#

I feel like nighttime woods is gonna be full of thermal thicc boys

vital mortar
#

daytime woods tends to have thermal boys too

strong jolt
#

hmmm

#

which do you think would be safer?

muted juniper
#

woods is just a shithole either way

bold kernel
#

Yea no real point going in there unless you are going thermal sniper

strong jolt
#

I'm doing the Guide

#

I have to go there

vital mortar
#

either i would say, if i got quest on woods that does not require killing, i usually just try to rush through the map

ocean crane
#

did all of the geared people just get on

vital mortar
#

they are always on, we are pre-wipe so people are burning through money

ocean crane
#

the last few raids i did had a lot of gunshots

#

and i was the first dead

#

i see why tho

vital mortar
#

expect thicc boys in every map now

ocean crane
#

rip

vague mulch
#

depends on the map

brisk rain
#

i killed 8 thicc bois last night

vague mulch
#

ic night is pretty chill

vital mortar
#

interchange, factory are probably the maps to avoid thermals. But thicc either way, still plenty of hatchling on shoreline, but when they're dead it's pretty much quiet

vague mulch
#

snoreline

brisk rain
#

snoreline is so blah

spark verge
#

shoreline is actually a pretty good map if you do a cache run\

ocean crane
#

i need big bags n stuff but i end up getting smacked by a geared boy

#

is there a map with less of these thicc boys

oak forge
#

@ocean crane wipe is soon thats why everyone is geared

ocean crane
#

i know but is there a map with less of them

vital mortar
#

shoreline, but it'll get boring

oak forge
#

well not labs

#

maybe customs

ocean crane
#

kk loot is loot

#

and i need it

oak forge
#

are you going geared @ocean crane ?

vague mulch
#

night interchange

ocean crane
#

well kind of aks and some armor

fuck yeah

guide completed

oblique sky
#

any body want to help me out tomorrow do my first task for praper and the nurse lady

bold kernel
#

Wait what’s the best 5.45 x 39 ammo?

#

BS?

strong jolt
#

yeah or 7n39

#

7n39 has much more pen and a little less damage

bold kernel
#

Way more expensive also

strong jolt
#

yeah

oak forge
#

use BS

bold kernel
#

How does BP stack up?

#

Workable or no?

oak forge
#

against lvl 4 yea

#

above that rip

strong jolt
#

yeah BP and BT have similar pen, and then there's a pretty big jump up to BS

bold kernel
#

Ok

oak forge
#

I like BP more than BT, I dont like tracers

strong jolt
#

Is there a particular spot that's good for finding the Mayo? It's the last thing I need for the collector

bold kernel
#

M855A1 is decent right?

strong jolt
#

yeah

#

that's the next one down from m995 basically

#

in terms of pen

oak forge
#

yes its fine

#

but not against lvl 6

#

IMO it should be the go to ammo if you are not rich

vital mortar
#

Mayo tends to be randomly spawned, found 6 in reserve yesterday in completely different places

strong jolt
#

how the F have I only found 1 this entire wipe

#

and I sold it or threw it out or some shit when I was still a noob

vital mortar
#

i kept mine in case i reached the quest, got tired of quest so now it's been sitting in my stash for the past 2 months

bold kernel
#

So M855A1 is pretty cheap comparatively to the other higher tier ammo types. I’m thinking about ditching all my 74s and going to HK and M4 platforms. Good idea?

#

I have like 8 74s

vital mortar
#

keep the 74 for when you run out, the HK and M4 have a high fire rate, if you're not used to it you'll run out quick. The 74s ammo ain't expensive for the good one

bold kernel
#

Yeah it is

#

It’s like 1k per round

vital mortar
#

in comparison right now with m995

bold kernel
#

For BS

oak forge
#

well I think the most value to cost ammo is the PS 762

bold kernel
#

That’s only effective against level 3 though right?

#

Or am I mixing it up

oak forge
#

no

#

this bullet is for akm

#

its fine against 4

#

against 5 you need lots of bullets

silver hornet
#

Against 6, good luck

oak forge
#

but it is around 90 roubles per bullet

#

haha yea 😄

bold kernel
#

Well fuck

#

I got 1.8 mil rubles and 3k dollars and I’m trying to figure out the most economical way to use it due to me not being that good

oak forge
#

well choose a weapon and get good with it

prisma stag
#

that's easy. look for the trader you've got up to lvl3 or higher then check flea for every thing he wish to sell you at lvl3. then invest in trading with this staff on flea :)

oak forge
#

I recommend AK-74s and AKM and vepr

bold kernel
#

I don’t have any trader at level 3

#

Only level 11

#

Reason?

prisma stag
#

like, jaeger want to sell you flechette for 70something roubles and at flea you can sell it at 120+ roubles

bold kernel
#

Personal preference?

oak forge
#

they are cheap

bold kernel
#

K

prisma stag
#

oh, then hunt for a rare keys and run for the locked rooms

oak forge
#

mods are cheap but you wont get recoil like m4s and hks

bold kernel
#

But their top tier ammo is hella expensive

oak forge
#

use AKM and vepr

#

PS

bold kernel
#

AKM and Vepr with PS, that’s viable?

oak forge
#

availble level 1 from prapor

#

yes

bold kernel
#

awsome man. Thanks for the info

oak forge
#

but try the akm in the offline mode

#

because recoil is not good

#

so you learn how to deal with it

bold kernel
#

I kind of like the single shot guns

#

I feel like I’m more accurate with them

prisma stag
#

and yeah, regarding flea. check everything you've combed on flea and with traders. sometimes you can get like 10k per item when you buy things on flea and sell to a trader

bold kernel
#

Picked up a goshan key earlier from shoreline

#

Yeyeye

vague mulch
#

vepr is nubbad but i had bad experience fighting against duos with a vepr

prisma stag
#

try shotgun with flechette. at close-mid range you'll likely onetap even armored enemies

bold kernel
#

I’m worried about solo fights and outing Scavs down easy. I’m resigned that I’ll lose 2v1s

vague mulch
#

for flechette aim or the legs?

#

just run away from 2v1s

bold kernel
#

What ammo one taps Scavs?

prisma stag
#

why the legs? it pens lvl4 quite good, I believe

vague mulch
#

ps does alright

#

oh does it?

bold kernel
#

Ok seems like PS for the AK and Vepr is the way to go then

#

For budget yet effective

hmm ap20 or flechette

strong jolt
#

any tips for killing pmcs while i'm blinded by a flash?

prisma stag
#

hmmm... find a pmc who is standing still (looting, for example), throw a flash between your legs and quickly aim to that pmc then boom and shot? hope this works

strong jolt
#

thx I'll try it

bold kernel
#

You can do it to me if you want

prisma stag
#

yeah, same here, can sacrifice myself if you want. I'll even bring my own flashbang :)

magic urchin
#

I got tagged and cursed even tho I came in geared with nvg it was night and the scavs could still see me from far away and would agro on me through wall and ceilings

prisma stag
#

yeah, at night they are almost blind. they'll spot you if you make noise (shooting, for example) or came too close (like, 15 meters)

#

so maybe the night was bright? like moon is shining or so?

magic urchin
#

No lights nothing

prisma stag
#

wait. are you went to offline with tagged enabled?

magic urchin
#

I was 3 floors above them

#

There were other players

prisma stag
#

then it was online. really strange. are you sure they were normal scavs, not raiders?

magic urchin
#

And they had almost perfect accuracy the shot they shot at me was a 1 tap to the head through a hole in the ground

#

And it was shoreline so no raiders

prisma stag
#

I have no idea then...

#

player scav maybe?

magic urchin
#

Nah

#

5m in

strong jolt
#

@bold kernel @prisma stag thanks. I just did it though. was easy. just took 2 raids on factory

prisma stag
#

have you blinded yourself or it was luck with their flash?

strong jolt
#

I blinded myself. if you flash your back, you're still technically flashed but it's not as blinding as if you get flashed fro mthe front

#

and it still lasts a decently long time

prisma stag
#

nice, thanks for the info

strong jolt
#

and since the spawns on factory are so reliable, I just flashed myself and rush whatever spawn I was closest to

subtle wing
#

man its been rough, I had 5 raids all ended in a stupid death 1 was a good fight in Dorms I dropped a guy but I couldnt hear his buddy behind me. Everything else has been I cant last in a fire fight my guy is dropped in seconds. I know part of it is map knowledge Ive only played since early Last month, but what are some other things I need to be mindful of in a fight?

forest jewel
#

Im level 23 and have only done one labs run. can someone help teach me the map and extracts?

bold kernel
#

Yeah, anything that looks like a big metal door in a large open room like a storage room or parking garage with an overhead room on the opposite side of the large metal door is definitely an extract

#

Just go into the overhead room, look on the desk, and if it says open door on one of the intercom things, then do it and watch the big metal door

prisma stag
#

@subtle wing well, map knowledge, as you pointed. also ammo choise and situational awareness. where are the spawns, where are the loot and what are the paths from spawns to loot places and how long it takes to reach them. then try to sneak behind.
if you see enemy and you'll have the opportunity window for a shot for a few more secs - wait, maybe his buddy near. and lisren carefully for a footsteps and gun sounds

bold kernel
#

there's an elevator too but that's gay lol

calm geode
#

can some one teach me to be a rat and help me level up

#

dm me

prisma stag
#

oh, that's easy. go straight to extract and camp here. trust me, you'll have the opportunity to shoot some guy who looted the most valuable stuff and will receive some hate as a bonus

pseudo veldt
#

can you one tap anyone in the head regardless of the armor they are wearing with m995 ammo?

rare burrow
#

not 100% of the time but m995 will penetrate even the best helmets often

lapis mauve
#

995 won

#

won't pen vulkan or killa faceshield

#

everything else should be 90% chance or better

rare burrow
#

~23% chance on vulkan

lapis mauve
#

@bold kernel what do you want, recoil, ergo, cost, or weight

rare burrow
#

~54% on killa face shield

lapis mauve
#

where do you see this?

pseudo veldt
#

is that why it's priced as much as sniper ammo?

lapis mauve
#

i am seeing 23% on killa faceshield

rare burrow
#

its priced that way because it pens most armors like its not even there

lapis mauve
#

and its a very popular caliber so lots of people use it

rare burrow
#

also true

lapis mauve
#

snb pens level 6 first shot but not many people use guns that can shoot it

pseudo veldt
#

many people use the mosin which shoots snb

rare burrow
#

RC you were right about the killa shield 23% i was looking at chance after 1 shot btw

lapis mauve
#

i think the number of people with mosins is less than the number with m4's. the m4 people also use way more ammo

rare burrow
#

mosin is easily accessible and has good stopping power for the price

lapis mauve
#

good luck shooting 200 rounds of snb in 1 raid with a mosin

#

snb is also a common spawn on reserve which drives price down

rare burrow
#

personally would recommend going with M61 if you're not trying to run a mosin

flat cipher
#

the firerate of the m4 helps it in the pen department because it just shreds the armour apart, that it cant penetrate first shot

bold kernel
#

Will I get a trade for an M4 and HK for my factory exit key in the flea?

lapis mauve
#

you are selling m4 and hk or factory key?

bold kernel
#

Factory key

lapis mauve

bad idea

#

someone can give you m4 and hk receiver

#

and it counts as the gun

Where do cases and high quality optics spawn?

@bold kernel for cases you want marked rooms one marked room on customs and 2 on reserve google them and the keys. optics can be found in most building on reserve but for consistency flee market is the best bet

@whole ocean People who know the spawn will rush you right off the bat. Nades can help you keep control of the situation, and dont be afraid to sprint to reposition

should I be the one to rush or play a bit passively @river talon ?

get a docs case until you get over 6 mil regularly. and use docs case for your container until you can afford a sicc case

scav runs im told are good. can walk out with gear to keep if the raid is successful, and not risk losing yours

you can also try offline raids so u can also then test out ur loot

in general best way is unfortunately to die a lot learn from mistakes

@main goblet Learn the maps and expect the contact before it happens. If you are constantly surprised by the gunfire you will not be effective. Its all about positioning and knowing when you are likely to make contact.

what happens if u dont extract by the time maintenance starts?

the game will probs just shut down and u will be kicked and loose ur stuff

thats a guess btw

they prob wait till the ongoing raids end and shut down

no during maintenance the raids get reduced to 10 mins and you dont lose your shit i believe but thats only if you're in a raid during maint

im really hung up on ;losing gear' im trying to get out of it

so im too cautious, slow, scared etc

#

in FPS games, im usually around 3kd 28% acc with fully auto guns. So i should be ok at this eventually

dire rock
#

Play scav as much as possible and go to the high traffic areas, you can find a lot of loot chilling there from kills and there’s no risk if you die

#

It’s how I got my stash a lil full and learned to keep calm

silent temple
#

Scavving factory at this point in the wipe can sometimes nab you a slick loadoat

#

But being sneaky beaky on reserve is also good, so many scav extracts

dire rock
#

Interchange or customs for me

left root
#

i have been, up to 2 mil that way. But its not giving me combat experience, largely because im playing cautious

silent temple
#

You can always camp dorms for cheeky loot on scav

left root
#

i tried shoreline after guys here said its quieter

#

customs is always geared pvp guys

dire rock
#

Shoreline is bleh imo

usually in a squad

My EOD was 72 eur expensive but I want a bigger secure container and indeed the stash is small. I am too casual to grind for bigger stash or secure container.

ocean crane
#

i might buy eod at wipe

zealous swallow
#

Yeah but probably no discount then.. but they have discount every few mon s

#

Months

ocean crane
#

i enjoy this game started playing a week ago

#

even if i survive once every 50 raids i still enjoy it

#

i would've made it out 2 times with phat loot with a friend but i got exit camped on interchange while my friend made it out both times i died

zealous swallow
#

Yes it’s a good game and the pvp keeps your blood pressure up

ocean crane
#

i just need to get used too a gunshot going off in my ear

#

it startles me every time i get shot at

zealous swallow
#

Yeah it’s great

#

Sometimes I get shot it freaks me out too

#

I’m just so focused

ocean crane
#

me and my friend were looting the some guys roll up on us with mp7's and we just had to run

#

i think i had a mosin

dire rock
#

its honestly better to stay relaxed then sit there tense as hell and listening for every little noise

#

youll just startle yourself and panic

zealous swallow
#

I don’t like the mosin rate of fire is too slow , it’s a good sniper but for straight up fire fights if you don’t land the first couple of shots you die

dire rock
#

^^

zealous swallow
#

I bought the SKS a lot when I didn’t have flea

#

The iron aight sucks but not too much else you can buy

dire rock
#

i like the hunter

bold kernel

fallow anchor

bold kernel

#

fallow anchor
#

ok

#

yea hopw?

#

i have the luanchr up

river talon
#

If anyone would like to see how to make good money on reserve. Streaming in Chit Chat for beginners

timid rain
#

@river talon the best way to teach them is to bring them in raid with you

river talon
#

@timid rain lol are you asking?

left root
#

Watching a stream doesnt do much in this game i think. Ive watched a lot of Pestily vids lately, i suck lol

sterile acorn
#

im pretty much brand new to the game anyone wanna help me out?

timid rain
#

@river talon No. I do money runs on reserve too but when I do them I will bring people in, because watching someone isn't the same as doing it.

grim gulch
#

i have played three raids and died 2 times. Anyone want to hop in a raid with me and help me out?

river talon
#

@timid rain Well I would disagree anyways. You will make much more money playing solo than with a group. I'm only level 65 though so IDK

left root
#

is factory any good for noobs. Heard you can take 5 man squad, so would only be 1 pmc to worry about?

timid rain
#

@river talon I know but when I bring them in I show them where they should go for when they play solo. I also give them everything valuable first.

#

@left root for pvp yes but looting no

river talon
#

@timid rain must be the best

strange geyser
#

anyone wanna help me level up ? im only level 8 trying to get to 10 and if you want to help me learn maps and spawn location and stuff like that too it would be awesome

pliant cobalt
#

Can anyone teach me the basics on here? Sorry to ask, but the vids I watched aren't really helping.

silent narwhal
#

I too would enjoy some help, I need somebody who can run with me.

river talon
#

@pliant cobalt Im just chillin in ChitChat doing loot runs, more than happy to answer questions

sterile acorn
#

im new to the game and would appreciate if someone could help me a little, im not really bothered about loot i just want to get better and understand more

regal kiln
#

Whats a good kit you can put together for cheap?

sharp patio
#

This is kind of beginners assistance, I'm trying to do gunsmith pt 12 but I need a 2U "Kleh" tactical flashlight. Dont have mechanic 3 and there's none on the fleamarket. Would someone be willing to put one up for me? I'll pay extra xD

unreal breach
#

im a complete noob can player scavs extract near their spawn or do they have to cross the map like PMC

sharp patio
#

You spawn randomly and have scav extracts, which are often different than the pmc extracts

unreal breach
#

ok thanks

bold kernel
#

can anyone help me learn maps?

#

and level up?

#

nobody really helps new players around here with anything other than game info tbh

#

i'm also pretty new, joined 2 weeks ago

#

was able to get in game help twice

river talon
#

The problem is people think "help" is getting carried or getting hand outs. Keep getting carried and you will certainly never get better.

bold kernel
#

i was actually able to learn some really helpful things during in game ''carry''

river talon
#

Learning is a personal endeavor

bold kernel
#

he basically got the tasks done for me, i learnt how i should do them and how to move around customs without getting in too much trouble

#

so now i know where to go to get those tasks done on my own, and move around customs

river talon
#

So you are better now and dont need help. perfect

#

oh wait

bold kernel
#

i learnt some caches and player spawns

river talon
#

you can do all of this without even being in game

bold kernel
#

not really, its easier to memorise when in game

#

especially for new players

river talon
#

if you think so.

bold kernel
#

i know so, u're being ignorant

river talon
#

lol... yet here you are needing help

#

complaining its not good enough for you

#

sad shit homie

bold kernel
#

i needed it, i stopped searching for it because eft community on discord is just about handing info to new players so they can feel smart and kindoff show off ^^

river talon
#

And here you are crying and calling people ignorant. the community will miss you

bold kernel
#

and you're the same

river talon
#

you just need to be carried

bold kernel
#

typical toxic player

river talon
#

you are the one bringing toxicity with your crying lol

bold kernel
#

do u even know what crying is? ''homie''

vernal anchor
river talon
#

nothing was toxic till you waddled in

unborn scarab
#

i wish i got carried

bold kernel
#

i called you out on ur bs, that's it

river talon
#

Awareness, self and in game, you are lacking

#

Did you lol? got me good

bold kernel
#

no one's willing to put their gear on the line for a noob, and that's completely fine, but saying it wouldn't help the player at all is complete bs ^^ cya

river talon
#

@unborn scarab Yo ill carry you

unborn scarab
#

ill take it

river talon
#

What map do you like?

unborn scarab
#

everyone except reserve actually

river talon
#

reserve is the best lol

#

aside from labs

unborn scarab
#

i like running shoreline myself the pvp in resort is always fun

river talon
#

lets do it

#

maybe @bold kernel can watch and take notes, since he isnt very good at making friends

unborn scarab
#

high gear?

pallid pebble
#

im a noob so maybe im not aware, but i havent run as a scav in a good while, but when i opened up the game just now, scav was locked for 20 minutes. Is there a reason for this?

river talon
#

yes, because there was an update

unborn scarab
#

update caused the scav timer to reset

#

happens each time ya update it

pallid pebble
#

thanks guys

#

ive only had the game but a week or two, have been doing offline raids really, but its been good. theres a lot to learn

warm rivet
#

@pallid pebble you working on any quests?

pallid pebble
#

none. i guess i just havent delved that deep yet

#

im aware of the help they bring or importance of them. just havent tried myself

#

like the keys and all that tp get to safes, or locked rooms. Aware about them, but know less about those and where to find them

#

And I only really know customs anyways. That's where most of my practice has been offline, and a little bit of woods

distant spindle
#

anyone tryna help me get some loot and money im new af lvl9

pallid pebble
#

regarding extracts anyways

zealous swallow
#

Once you learn the maps and extracts you can focus on loot spawn locations . Then you can start to make some money

#

But in general you will also learn doing scav runs as much as possible

#

Get a feeling for pvp

pallid pebble
#

im gonna have to start doing scav runs for sure

zealous swallow
#

And once you feel confident try to do some PMC runs

pallid pebble
#

when ive been doing offline runs as well im always running it with horde ai, to get involved in the combat as well, and looting.

zealous swallow
#

Only way to get better is to die a lot and learn from mistakes . Yes offline runs will help as well you will know where AI scavs spawn

#

I’m still pretty new myself , have about 65+ hrs in but still die a lot

#

Also search YouTube for map guides, those helped me

lapis mauve
#

@sharp parcel it doesn't work if you kill people in your squad. you can pick the same server and try to get in the same match (them in a squad, you solo) but you may not get the same game

strong jolt
#

are there any post effects settings that make NV less horrible? I'm trying to get nighttime kills on factory and there are so many glaring lights

left root
#

probably a dumb question....Why would i want to turn 4 LCDs and screwdriver into 4 broken lcds?

olive turret
#

@left root dunno maybe they want whats in the lcd so broken is a dumb way they describe it or they got lazy and use the broken model for both an opened unscrewed lcd and a actual broken one

strong jolt
#

They put a new gun in?

weary fern

How long can I wait to claim quest reward items? Running short on stash space
