but loot isnt my focus so i play much more slowly
Loot should always be your focus early wipe imo
Hideout items sell for an insane amount
well people have the best loot
Pretty easy to make a lot of money that way
Yea I often have good runs just waiting spawn.... sometimes until end of raid... Just finding a good position and practice with a dependable gun can make some big scores...
Yeah just waiting right near those extracts.... Setting up a tent.... Camping a bit......
you extract camp?
Well spawn clearing n people in a rush... why run in open with them?
Anyway... if it works...
anyone who needs plastic pistol grip for mp-133/153 for gunsmith part 1?
Yet another question - are those insane loading-times normal? got Tarkov on an NVMe, yet spending more time in menu after each round then the round actually lasts
got ram cleaner on? plenty of ram?
unless you mean matching times?
Could also be just your 'connection' to the menu servers.... merchants n stuff can slow down with certain loads
daaamn finally a good pmc run
i have recently seen a picture where someones inventory when they press tab is smaller so they can see all of it does anyone know how i can do this?
class 5 rig, fully kitted aks, some quest items
sweet
@bold kernel #beginners-chat
gj
oh yeah sorry i thought i was in that chat xD
@raven gazelle not familiar with that feature
seen stacked screenshots... thats about it
stacked?
just edited pictures where they photoshop the stash together.
@bold kernel - 32 gigs of ram, gigabit-connection - even after a fresh start those loadingtimes persist - talking about the ones that occur if you get killed, for example, spinning circle in the lower right corner
This is a legit question and no im not a begginer. How do i escape being fucking sniped from the other side of the map constantly. Its seriously so annoying.
Load times are just garbage right now, no clue why
Starting up the game takes a good 5 minutes for me sometimes
Just lvl 20+ players out of nowhere and you cant hide from it
What map are you playing on?
*lower right corner, sorry ^^
Reserve, interchange (dont get that as much there, customs, shoreline (not as much). @thick mist
@sharp sinew guessing menu servers under load then with high wipe loads going on... more ppl playing as prime hours roll around...
gotcha, didnt knew those were affected aswell, cheers ^^
perhaps make a report through launcher about having high load times in your region.
Hmmm I'd just learn where common sniping spots are and try to prevent them from having an angle on you
believe there is login>menu>raid servers... ppl can get stuck on any one with different... problems
anyone having issues with disconnection?
Well dome has sight over the whole map..
On Reserve it's usually dome or the sniper towers, Customs is usually the rocks or hills behind gas station, Shoreline is... Uh good luck on that map
whole map sees dome too. like alot of positions only a couple shots are safe before you should really move
Yeah dome is kind of annoying but not many people should have fully kitted snipers with drum mags and high powered optics yet so that shouldn't be too common of an issue
And oh boy is it a common issue though
Not guns I use to snipe but sure lol
but i guess ill try to look out
!sherpahub
Yeah whenever I play Reserve I'm either hiding from dome or watching dome to kill people up there lol
If anyone needs help with the task checking, dm me and join the server linked above (Running a raid helping people with it right now)
reserve I snipe... I look at all counter sniper positions I have frequantly... try to keep my head down and scope out common places ppl stand in open.
quiet long enough I move positions... keep low ground and pass a couple loot points to secure a couple items
Oh and also. Any way to avoid getting shot in the face? Like a position you can stay in or whatever. Feels kinda shitty getting one shot by an AK when you got a good helmet still.
By end of raid if I got loot... poke around raiders or dead bodies left over.
for none secure bonusp
I'm assuming rushing the store is very very bad if you arent a pistol-ling as I've tried rushing to the entrances 5-6 times and died before getting there each time,
but I was talking about how people have agreed that garage is a horrible place to be because there is no loot and basically no ways to get into the store from there, slows you down a lot as it takes several minutes to get through. in addition its hard to see scavs because of the low light level
but I think I've learned that the best way to do interchange is hang back for 3 or 4 minutes before approaching so everyone else can get in and not snipe you in the back
hiy so i have a question about this game. i love it it awesome btw! and a prett good community also
so my stash is full and i actually have no idea what to sell and what not to sell
Ah i try to do that but thats when i get one shot from nowhere lol @bold kernel
@thick mist
@coarse cove well... your not the only one... even at end of raid I pick paths I shot clear or have plenty of cover
I die sometimes too... but secure loot covers me usually
Wow literally the first thing that happens when i join a reserve game is that i get sniped from nowhere...
fuck reserve
go through main entrances that don't have ramps only
avoid the garage
wait a few minutes before pushing to the store
mainstore/idea conversion area is death trap
Interchange guide 101 that I've got so far, any thoughts?
@fluid rose unless you know you need it... sell it... maybe regret it later... but there is always more loot in raid
there is alot to learn... what guns you like to use? get to know them... and their best bullets...
okay i see,
i have also noticed that there is missions that have 6 of one said item thats why im just nervous about selling items.
just keeping it all is a choire... even if you sell it all... can buy it on flea market with all the money you can make
is there a way to tell if its an important quest item?
well ya it's annoying... but you here to check boxes or shoot ppl
tasks just help fill in time between raids
i pick everything up
so they are not relevant?
except apple juice and misc like that
they give exp.... lvl traders... but you can still do good with lvl 1 gear if you practice
like i have about thirty bolts and screws
well roight now i have a 53% raid susc and a 4 kda
with 100 hours
with level one gear
upgrade your hide out? otgerwise I would just dump a dozen or so on flea and tank prices while taken money
i almost abuse the scavenger is that dorty?
see i didnt een no that bolts upgraded flea market im sorry
Your got the gist of it... I'm about same after tanking my. k/d in factory for exp to lvl 10
yeah see i dont like grinding factory like that where u camp the room isnt that almost abusing the system?
I never camped no room but I fpund other spots... anyway... I had an objective n went for it
oh i see
why can I not place an offer for this key?
not found in raid?
can you afford the fee
go through main entrances that don't have ramps only
avoid the garage
wait a few minutes before pushing to the store
mainstore/idea conversion area is death trap
Interchange guide 101 that I've got so far, any thoughts or additions? Trying to learn how to play the map better
im poor _:D
@bitter radish that looks like a chad way of doing it sure
you good with flick shots?
Im okay with them
and yeah I guess so it does mean I get to go in and fight people with tons of 1on1s more than having to worry about getting sniped and things
or dark spaces
so ig its chad i dont really know how 'chads' are supposed to play
cuz inner mall has great 2nd floor angles and multiple angles of attack.. such a route usually you secure whay you can n fight to extract or die where you find loot...
what
so eventually work the way to inner mall and go to 2nd floor
if you want to fight
@bold kernel thanks again
go through main entrances that don't have ramps only
avoid the garage
wait a few minutes before pushing to the store
mainstore/idea conversion area is death trap
Try to fight on second floor of main mall *
saying solo inner mall... either know what loot your looking for... secure it and die or kill everone near loot you want... take it n walk out...
or die trying
2nd floor tech shop for graphics card is the 'popular' route...
after that ppl go toward center of mall for killa n kiba or near by tech shops... usually with minimal concern for cover or clearing... cuz they can flick shot well...
Well i understand where the loot and stuff is
Im just trying to get better at knowing how to PLAY the map
apart from that people will sweep oil for it's high qual loot too...
im going to see how pistol running affects when to push the store
If rushing it is possible
if you have less weight/can run faster and longer
cus i dont like maps where you are forced to wait a few minutes at the beginning
It's an option... gambleing plan
I don't do it cuz I can't clear that fast or that many openings
At best down a hall from tech store I climb boxes and try to snipe... listen for ppl behind... move when bored or near end raid.
lousy place for me thou
update: pistol run works to get in the store and kill a scav for a gun.
unfortunately there were 7 players in oli
two spawn points inside and another ~3-4 outside... it can get a crowd early raid
that is early
3 different times I got shot at and looked and saw the flash/dust and still couldnt see them though
that map is way way way too dark
lol
maybe after 15 i think I'm out of early
I dont understand why SO many people were there lol
Tech stores had 0 people, but there were SEVEN in oli
what is that
and maybe my settings are wrong because I could NOT see them
loot density... still early... could be careful movers watching for the spawn rushers
I mean im sure they were but why not watch tech stores
7 people happened to decide on oli > tech same raid same time odds of that lol
but man they were straight up invisible
there is two modest tech stores seen from back of oli for decent marksmen... could catch them or ppl rushing oli
depends on team comp n goals
This guys aim was horrible i just laid down and looked towards him and he kept hitting around me, i was scoped in on him and all, would see the smoke cloud, the flash, could not see him at all
like 5-6 shots of a shotgun from him i just couldnt see his body
so dark
i think my settings are fukkd
maybe... can't speak to your monitor or settings...
oil hasn't felt too dark for me...
hey, i just unlocked the flea market but have no idea what I should use it for. any tips?
can someone help me farm killa only once or twice
@barren sapphire You can use it for anything, weapon modding, hideout building, but most things are going to be really expensive early, I'd say farm hideout upgrade materials and sell them on flea, great way to make money. Also, buying keys can be a great early investment
check the going value of your loot and sell there or spend your money on stuff you want or deals you find.
whoever u need the reputation for most
wiki should cover details of benefits and consequnces of choices.
dm me if your willing to help me with my inventory
Ive been to zb014 5 times and not found a single 60 round mag for ice cream cones
is there a better way to get those mags for the quest?
raiders or killa?
is killing rashala and his boys with a mosin only and taking no damage good?
should I feel proud of myself as a noob?
yes :)
yessss
It's a good run
resh has been my buddy on scav for some reason
if you extract
I did
and that is exactly why I need help managing my inventory lol
so if anyone wants to hop in a call with me and help that would be great
any extract usually good unless you pick up absolutly nothing.
yeah bck to hatchet running on woods for these mags then
sell it all unless you need it... you can buy more or play another raid again... thats my.goto
what you need is w.e task your doin or hideout upgrade your makin
the rest is replacable and reason to keep playin
but not just the stuff I got from resh, my inventory is full and I dont know what to do with most of the stuff lol
Quick question, when i have a quest item (golden pocket watch) and i extract before the 10 minute thingy runs out, do i still get the quest done?
you can buy his golden gun off flea... it can be sold too
quest is done when you hand it in afterward... otherwise ur just holding it...
there are some tasks that nake extracting a seperate step
like after planting something you can die but the plant is still done... extract in another raid
eft mind getting in a call with me so I can screenshare?
so you can tell me what to sell and what to keep?
Hi everyone, can you please tell me where I can search for a group to help me with the Delivery from the past? Seems close to impossible on my own
I really dont know what I am doing
can someone help me get a gas anylyzer
is reserve marked room different to other marked rooms
whats the best cheap pistol to do factory EXP runs? TT?
tt is decent
but so expensiiive
they're not
there not
buy a 5-7 or PP-91
and they'll save you 5x for every time you die because you were using a pistol
"actual gun" like what?
anything
like anything
the fuckin 5-7 mags r like 70k alone
deadass?
yes
lol
i vendored my 5-7 to mechanic so i wouldnt know flea prices 😆
5-7 is only found in raid rn cause nobody has the traders leveled
idk if you can even buy it with max traders
is a really good pistol but expensive
wrong
yeah so you're one of the tiny tryhards that have it already
obviously you can't suggest that to a newer player
i detect slight shade being thrown, and i didnt read where he said cheap
for cheap i use the pp-91 klin or kedr
most people dont own face shields so its good for headshots
Mfw i kill a level 6 player wearing an altyn

can anyone in game send me a detail pic or post a pic of the mech 3 ak74m zentico barter?
Hi m new to the game and am wondering if theres anyone who could play with me and show me the roaps
How do you turn on the light on the helmet?
turn the flashlight on when it's on your gun
take it off while it's on
put it on your helmet.
can someone help me get gas analyzers
looted
hello, can anyone help me?
I'd like to know what items I should be selling to what trader?
I know armour and clothing to ragman but that's about it
Okay, here's the general rule of thumb for selling shit.
Sell everything you can to Therapist. Then to Skier. Then to Mechanic.
Sell everything in this order will get you the most money.
The only outlier here is selling melee weapons to Jaeger.
Can someone help me with bad rep evidence, I don't have much gear and can't afford the key of the flea market
which key is it?
uuh can u guys put some up that aint 175k?
how do u switch the zoom on a scope
alt right click i think
lol
ctrl*
i hate how the only expensive items r the quest or hideout items
yeah its bullshit
not really its just supply and demand innit
ye its just kinda annoying
it is annoying though i agree
i put up 600k to get through the first 2 gunsmiths to help my squad so they dont have to
Hey everyone. So if I have skier at level 2 if I turn in another quest that lowers my rep with him does it take away his level 2 status?
YE
but they r the only items that r worth money
Need help for quests can someone direct me to a text channel for that or is it just in LFG
damn
if only i had money
instead of joining games iwth desynced players and cheaters :v
@rancid jackal no text channel unfortunately. You could try in the LFG chat to see if others need the to complete the same, some here in this chat may too if you say which specific one
anybody got peacekeeper level three that could buy me a mp5sd upper receiver and silencer?
can someone help me get gas analyzers
why do you need other's help for getting those?
i just cant find any
get a door key and run factory I got mine done in 10 minutes for both parts
Then you gotta be faster for spawn areas, if not, search any bags you find
and hidden stashes
keep found in raid ones and trade one in without a mark because you need 2 found in raid ones for the second part
okey
What is the 322 key for?
It sold to therapist for a hefty 100k but wiki said useless soo
Still not high enough for flea because I can’t find a 133
Stuck on prapor quest
I completed the quest and I find them everywhere now.
It’s been 26 hours for me
Did alyonkas get nerfed they're like 15k on market not 50k
no
there's just a lot more on the market
Alyonkas have one use and that's making moonshine
and barely anyone is at the moonshine making stage
when the wiki says a map has "X players" (factory has 4-6) do scavs and player scavs count towards that number?
nope, just PMCs
just sold a san 322 key for 80k lol
blows my mind how people buy this key lol
like imagine spending 80k for a key that literally unlocks nothing xD
lol i can never find flash drives
same @olive turret
although pestilys new video is pretty detailed of where to find them shows you spots they actually are
and for me its so consistent that everytime i go to factory for some lootsies with the scav i get a flash drive or keycard
factory for loot why?
im poor
i checked the tent in woods and car in customs and did the computer runs in ic and i saw none
reserve is the only map i dont know very well
super easy to learn it seems massive but its actually small
and extracting as a scav is so easy on that map
i can run it with you and show you the map if youd like
cant rn since i gtg soon but i might take you up on that offer man tyvm
alright just @ me sometime
Hey guys, what's up?
Do I get tagged and cursed if I bring a loaded pistol and 2 more loaded mags?
im not too sure but i would usually just bring a scav vest as well just in case
What is tagged and cursed?
wtf marked room can be totally empty?
tagged and cursed is where you go in with almost nothing and the scavs basically run at you like madmen
so lets say a pistol and a mag
what should i do with dogtags when i just start?
sell them to therapist
thanks
np
PSA from a noob to everyone in here: I just got over gear fear and had the best 2 raids of my life back to back. no way I would have won any of those fights without decent gear.
Hey guys, my game is on an ssd, but after I back out of a looking for match, or get back from a raid, my game takes FOREVER to load the main menu, like usually 4 minutes. Any suggestions?
I mean it takes like 4 times long as my friends
Hi! new to the game, literally just downloaded it could anyone please help me get started :D
is this the channel to go to to look for a froup
no
#pvp-lfg is where you go to look for a group
hence, the name, looking for a group.
yes
hey, question, when I put items within my stash into bags, do Hideout crafts and Dealer trades still see them?
does that remain the case if they're within several bags within each other?
Anybody willing to play with me? And help me level up please
@inner island if u mean keep keys to use them for a bit then sell them just know that if u take those in raid and u die even if they r in ur pouch they will lose there in raid mark and u wont be able to sell
np
@bold kernel yes you can put items in bags/vests and they still work for barters and hideout upgrades

I've noticed that bigger rigs have more space inside them than they take up in stash.
Bags within bags.
Ammo, pistol, med case...
Am I missing anything for extra stash?
Weapon cases, grenade cases, item cases, etc
Cheapest storage available is AVS rigs, you can buy broken ones for cheap and fit 2 helmets and a bunch of 1x2 and 1x1 things in them
anybody got peacekeeper level three that could buy me a mp5sd upper receiver and silencer? (dm me plz)
when i try to load in to the game it takes forever and is very laggy and stutters a lot, can anyone help me?
IM NEW AND HAVE BASICALLY BEEN LOSING GEAR LEFT AND RIGHT CAN ANYONE HELP ME
sorry for caps
can anyone tell mme why the med case i put up for 530k just sold for 100k?
what the actual fuck, i cant offer things on the flea mmarket for more than 100k?
user error
im a mong
just jipped myself out of 430k
sad times
Rip
yeet
who do i sell secure flash drive to
dont sell them you need them for a quest
only if it's FIR tho lol
the 3rd skier task you need 2 found in raid
and you need 3 for Jaeger
well you can craft those three so 
so if i sell something like gas analyzer or kek, then when i unlock the task to find those in raid can i just buy one off the flea market for the task since I found one previously?
should I rush and worry about level and xp? Feel like if I don't play fast ill get beat and constantly be out geared and outgunned each raid? any suggestions
Hey, I noticed if you take weapon attachments off a gun while you are in the trader menu the price remains, so you can sell guns for more than you can buy them for, without actually selling the attachments
Whats up with that?
I actually don't think it gives you the price that it says. I remember it used to be like that, but it actually didn't give you the full amount, it was a lot less since it didn't have attachments
@mint eagle you need 2 found in raid analyzers. Items bought off the flea market are not counted as "found in raid".
why is saline solution worth so much?
hideout
what is the San. 301 key worth?
!ammo
@sleek tusk 650k
dang ty
np
How do i spot player scav to AI scav?
mainly just how they move, if its a body then player scav will have an empty "pouch" slot on the bottom of their loot
i ment when they are walking or something like that.
u basically just need to learn what a scav acts like and judge it from there
so like how a scav moves and stuff
@sleek tusk npc and player scavs have the same animations and can have same clothes/gear. Basically the only way to tell is how they walk/run and aim while walking around. Npc scavs tend to walk around predictably, slowly scanning the enviroment side to side sometimes, while players move/aim more erratically/unpredictably
i need help
@bold kernel can u be more specific ^_^? help with info, or help directly ingame?
i started 2 dayes ago and need some one to teach me the basics
i need help i cant find a play style thats reliable!
anyone have the oli logistics key for database part 2 would like to lend a hand 🙂
how do i get more space in my stash? are there other ways than upgrading my stash in hideout?
ehre yes
aight
and what loadouts/weapons do you guys recommend in the beginning? any specific weapons?
AK's all the way
do you just use them as they come or mod them somehow?
Is there an easy way to tell if another player is cheating? I heard this guy sprinting inside a building, on his way out. I crouch and set up to ambush. He rounds the corner at full sprint and one-tap headshots me before I can even get my red dot on him. Every time I am full-sprinting it usually takes me a short amount of time to aim my weapon. Didn't seem to be any lag, I had just engaged and won a fight vs another player a moment before.
if i got one thats been lasting me a while ill through a couple mods on it
but mostly bare bones or vary little attachments
is any ak fine? or do you use specific ones?
some are better than others
suprisngly the vpo 366 variant was doing wonders
im very new so i would appreciate some example of good ones so i can keep them whenever i find one
yeah i liked that one too but the magazine with 10 shots really throws me off =/
but the regular AKM is nice with PS, or SKS too if you can get a scope on it,
anything 7.62 pretty much
oh okay thanks for the tips 🙂
is there a way to refresh fence's inventory faster so that i can maybe snag some 3M? xD
if i was far enough on that quest i could help you but not there yet
i like the akm and the AK105
If anyone is having troubles on gunsmith part 1 there is a barter trade for an MP133 that has everything but the pistol grip
no mechanic
oh lol
you can buy the pistol grip from Jaeger
No one killed me but i died. Server crashed. Any ideas
not all that stuff some stuff isnt even sold on the flea market @bold kernel
but it is easier
people just spray the life outta me from 30 meters away, whenever i try that my shots go in the air lmao
I just got back into the game after a long time of not playing and have forgotten everything - can anyone recommend good kits for my first few raids?
i have 377 hours on the game countless hours spent training my aim and im just as bad as someone who just started i used to be a console player but switched a few months ago and cant adjust i used to be good but i cant figure this out and i need a master and their guidance i would be humbled if a sherpa would be willing to help me thank you
can you buy a mount for an akm somewhere so that i can add some optics?
i cant find any on the traders
nvm i found it
Which specific loot items should you look out for as they sell well on the market?
i have multiple times every dpi under 1000 i would play for like 5 hours and switch
@bold kernel what did you use?
Anyone down to help a newbie?
m1-b gas tube xD
@bold kernel its not my dpi its my playstyle mindset and emotions that have blocked me from my flow state i will never stop trying but i need a real master if i am to get better
Which specific loot items should you look out for as they sell well on the market?
@coarse lily
If you aren't too interested in your hideout right now, lightbulbs are like 30k on the flea market
Car Batteries are about 140k-ish
I don't have the flea market just yet, so I've been using this to price check
Price online monitoring, charts, price history on Escape From Tarkov flea market items
ye its really good to upgrade it as fast as u can
Is anyone able to help me with postman pat? Keep getting camped in factory.
WOW I GOT insta laserd i survived 2minits with this gear xD
got rushed by a 3man stack
with vals
i realy love this game thats helped me to get gear fear atleast
anyone know a good corrugated hose spawn? Oli has been very dry for me
@tawny pulsar Oli is pretty much the go to for hardware
anywhere else tho? i mean i legit have ran it about 12 times today and found 1
i know it spawns in toolbox rarely and i feel like i have a better chance doing toolbox runs. but i only know like 4 in the back of the mall of interchange
where do i report a cheater
?
I dont know if you can forsure but ask support chat they will know more
k thanks
Can you reload fast for pistols if you don't have a chest rig
double tap R it should work
Is it recommend to start the base immediately if you bought the EoD?
Please can anyone who is really good at the game and knows Reserve give me a hand? I don't know reserve too well and dont really know extracts etc. And I have a RB-BK key I kinda wanna use
I cannot find scavs on woods for the life of me
@covert garden Go to scav house
I do, 80% of the time none are there
Wait about 5 minutes after raid starts they should start spawning in there
if not, go to the checkpoint there are usually 2-3 scavs there
yeah i have more luck waiting then looking for scavs
I just go with a silenced sniper (or non silenced) climb up a rock that overviews both of them, and just camp those two spots for scavs
I keep running into pmcs when I try. I have 6 left
what do I put inside the case u get from edge of darkness
Do we must find the FIR quest items AFTER we accepted the quest?
You can find them beforehand and just hang onto them @ember galleon
Is there any full list of armour so that I know whats good and what isnt
I dont want to pick up some crap armour on accident
Could someone send the image that has all the items needed for quests? I'm almost level 10 and want to see what I can dump into the flea market and what I should save
@mint briar its on the quests page of the wiki
@ember galleon no you can find them beforehand
Hi all, fresh arrival - I have a question - can scavs see through bushes? I had this situation when I grabbed the pocket watch, ran into bushes behind the fence to hide, a scav (seems to be AI, uttered a voice line) ran after me and blasted me with a single shot when I was hidden in foliage. Should I just assume that they can see me?
I think it depends on the bush but scavs can sometimes do that
@sage dock Yes, scavs are op
just go after solid cover rather than bushes
@daring terrace and @olive turret thank you for the answers, wish i had knewn i would hang on to the 1 usb i found :p
yeah usbs are a pain to find
i gave up on looking for them on my pmc
then i spawned with one in 3 different raids
thanks, will choose a better hiding spot next time!
@ember galleon yeah this wipe I basically have my scav box full already of the stuff I need 😂
i don't even have a scav box
Therapist level 2 and 1.2M it can be yours
i know but i am only lvl 12 don't have much time to play currenlty and i am not very lucky with flash drives or gas analyzers in general
i normaly buy those fuckers off the flea market
what are these wipes that ppl refer ?
How come both me and my buds can't see my listings on the flea market?
I have the lowest listings so it should be really easy to see, but they only show up on my listings page
@lime finch a wipe is when all players have their gear/level/quests completely reset, this is to keep the game from getting stale and allowing geared players to relive the scav days with everyone else
@cloud stratus does it have a schedule?
how long ago was the last one ?
like 3 weeks ago
I need help with delivery from the past please
try it during the night raids that tend to be the best time to do them and take your time no need to rush it let the other players kill each other then u get the doc case
Wipes are for testing more then then stopping the game getting stale I believe...
dev will reset anything if it's ouy of control and needed a patch. strength got reset multiple times for various fixes
Show me any game with dedicated servers that doesn't ever disconnect anyone... It happens, it's a known thing here. It's also a Beta, play at your own risk.
Hey just started out anyone about to give me the low down?
Everyone is currently playing as testers... it's understood problens arrive and anything reported through the launcher is appreciated.

Whats the point of the optional part

Anyone know why it takes me forever to get into a game with the loading map and loading loot sections taking ages or is this just my cpu being crap
I have a very old computer and it takes me a while so take that as you will
Yeah takes me up to 10 mins
And then I get p variable frames
Hoping to upgrade my cpu soon tho so hopefully that will make a difference
any up to take me under their wing? i keep trying but just keep dying lol

@silver hornet yes

I need a good factory map
need help on shoreline for a quest
try the discord above... it features maps and helpers.
hi is it possible to put a sight on the mosin when you havent lvled any trader yet?
and have no flea?
@dusk charm u can trade it for batteries but i dont recommend it
ok ty
can I work on scav killing quests as player scav?
no
Does anyone know how 'worth' it is to turn your generator on to start building something and then turn it off to conserve fuel? I'm making Salewas and I know it's 2hours more to build them with the generator off, but am I really saving that much fuel?
id say so
just means you dont have to go find more or buy them more often
just turn it off when your done?
Well, you can hit start and then turn the gennie off. it adds like 2 hours and 10 minutes to the creation time. But presumably it saves on fuel
If anyone needs the m80 handguard or the choke for the gunsmith quests lmk and I will slap one on a weapon and sell it on the flea mad cheap for you
i am new to this server as well as the game and want some help and someone to play with where can i get that?
can you not put items found in raid inside a container or something?
a few times now that items that i found in raid are not marked as that
I have a question, if you bring an empty fuel can, will it refuel after raid? or can you not refuel?
Is Pilgrim a bad backpack for looting Shoreline Resort with the bright colors it has?
Hey, can anyone tell me what mount I need to put a PSO on a SKS tapco?
You need the OP-SKS for the PSO
@wary condor you can't refuel anymore
@languid sage night time is usually 2030 to 0530.
what does Key to OLI logistics department office sell to traders for?
If i just wanna kill Killa, do I bring M855 or M856
just buy some m995 of peace keeper
i just stared the game, and i wonder what map should i start on.
@solemn pike m856, higher flesh damage, neither pens his armor so you gotta hit his legs or have a 60 rounder to d emolish his armor and then thorax him
Thanks I was planning to shoot him in the leg.
I have a teammate whos gonna stun lock him while I try to finish him.
thank you.
@slow patio interchange is great for money, factory is kidna pointless, reserve is also great for money but you might run into cheaters. shoreline can be good for money but id mainly recommend interchange. Just do your quests
@solemn pike just aggro him, hide behind a wall, he will rush you. Once you start shooting his legs he will be stun locked.
@solemn pike but buy 1 60 rounder at least, its easy to miss his skinny legs and 30 rounds wont be enough to kill
are cheaters very common on this game? @proper ginkgo
@slow patio extremely but mainly only on labs, but i have heard theyre bad on reserve too. otherwise its not as bad on other maps but labs is such an awesome map...
Anybody know the first time you can buy Vepr ammo off the vendors?
I know what im doing otherwise just not used to using this newbie ammo.
i guess, anyway for now will go on offline mode and learn the map. thx for the help
anyone here have access to Jaeger LL2 and willing to help me out?
whats the best 5.45x39 ammo under BT & BP
@dawn karma PP
Hey can anyone help me? Sometimes when I load into a raid my screen is pitch black. I can cases my inventory and move around. What’s going on?
I can't for the life of me see what I'm missing here. Anyone help?
My Gun;
tarkov wiki
fold it
Far as newbie armor goes, should I be wearing Zhuk 3 or Kirasa?
@solemn pike either is fine if you have them, better than Paca
About the same,, you'll lose more speed with the Zhuk, but it's a difference between 2%, not noticeable
thanks.
whats this key for?
Shoreline.
In resort, the middle building, there's a locked safe in an archive/storage room
2nd floor
Go right on on the stairs, the open door at the end
@raven gazelle I was gonna say you shouldnt be going there for a while but if youre wearing Killa armor into every raid, youre having a much better wipe than me, so yeah go play Shoreline.
Dont wear the pilgrim tho you stick out like a sore thumb.
Cottage safe key requires a backdoor key to the cottage
Man im hot garbage at this game. If I can kill you at this game, you should uninstall this game. Ive killed 4 PMCs solely because they were wearing pilgrim.
you can get decent stuff out from safes, or only money, bitcoins can be found in them too
Or a lot of Makarovs, lol.
that too
im having some issues with the mosin iron sights. I appear to be completely dead on but i still miss
Have you checked that your zeroing is correct
Nevertheless, I find it to be the same 🤷♂️
the same what? Like me? The zeroing on iron sights cannot be c hanged from 100
Is there any way to put more than 3 items onto the fle market?
Once your rating on the flea goes higher, yes.
@somber solstice Yes, I find iron sight on mosin to be horrid
Do you have the front sight on aswell?
@raven gazelle that key is great if you have the cottage back door key
How do i claim a quest that i have done
@steel grail that's not bad
Support wouldn't happen to reset my game profile for me before the set date of allowance would they?
Does XP earned on a scav run count towards your PMC profile?
I cant believe im asking this question after 900 hours.
whats the scav level apply towards?
Basically they have all the skills your PMC has, so those level up
Tips on killing Shturmann?
anyone have oli logistics key for database part 2?
hey so I cant even download the game
When I click the link it says "this site cant be reached"
wait I think it fixed itself
This is really noob question. The 1 next to my friends means one of them is online right?
What is the best way for a newbie player to quickly get the EXP for level 10? Been killing scavs in low gear runs.
quests is probably the best way to hit level 10 earlier unless you are really good at killing scavs.... which i am not
whats the exp you get per scav even
Alan wake
couldn't tell you, i'd guess between 100 to 200 per kill
but i think the more you get the less exp per kill but you'd have to get someone to confirm that, im still pretty new to the game myself
no! my child
@gentle stratus Thats the MDR? And why are you goin into labs without armor.
MDR? no. its an mp7. and i go labs all the time. I am raider farming. not pvping.
Wouldnt Reserve be significantly better?
no.
Some people in this chat post in beginners assistance who are really well off. Isn't it pretty possible to run into good PMCs on Labs regardless ?
yes. For sure. But I sometimes Just have to take a rist
I mean. I won't post my low gear labs runs in here if you think it will turn the children rat. but.
Running Labs to farm Raiders
lol
feels like youre really well off. Maybe you can teach me some stuff. Ive never actually been to labs.
Sorry, I am not a pvp god. Nor do I claim to be.
Labs is a shitshow rn
if anyone is looking for someone to help them make some money if your a new player as well i'm good at showing the ropes hmu shoreline or customs for quests i can do reserve to get hideout stuff in that order i love them maps DM me i love duo's and trios
@solemn pike your stash value is higher than his
@silver hornet That's irrelevant.
how is it not relevant though?
"Much better than me" but your stash value is higher than his.
That doesn't make any sense.
Labs keycard costs what 150k? How can you afford a 150k key and still be broke.
also,
@silver hornet That's irrelevant.
@solemn pike this was a joke.
🤔
I can understand hatchet runs, but who goes to labs poor. I thought Labs was strictly endgame shit.
No, you can run labs for ledx etc but also just go in with m1a to kill raiders and leave
how in fuck? The key costs almost as much as the starting money.
and im EoD so I get more.
and? you vendor 700k from getting out of it
2 unsuccessful runs and you are flat broke. Im not tryna do labs until I can afford it. But ive never played it before,now Altair has me curious.
Labs is good moeny assuming you dont die to hackers, and play smart (unless your trying to fight)
I only really play Interchange. They let you keep your insurance in Interchange.
125k for keys atm, Fairly easy..125k+gun and alittle ammo 10-15min in raid and you make 5x that back
if nothing else you atleast break even
I guess cause my idea of a good run is 200k in profit.
you guys think way bigger.
good on you.
Spend big to make it big
for me itd be really hard to come back from 0 on day one. alright fair enough.
I cant understand doing labs without armor knowing you could run into good PMCs, the risk > reward on that one is fucked up.
Im trying to learn how to kill the raiders on Reserve on scav runs.
you guys live in a different world.
Just tap the pmc in the face as well lmao
but yea just learn spawns and its not that bad
only have about 20 hours played, would love to learn to be a good rat and see my riches rise!
become a chad its much better for your income! but im sure some rats will be able to help you along the slow n steady path
im still stuck on my first 2 missions and have no idea what im doing
can anyone help me with getting the plastic pistol grip for the mp-133
@wintry sluice buy a mp-133 from the flea with one on it
He's not level 10 yet
then get lucky
no other way
unless he's asking for someone to drop him it in which case yeah
If anyone needs 60 round magazines for the quest; have a list of found in raid items you can trade roughly 20k per mag and I'll barter you roughly that value from my trader
I just learned if you put a barter trade on the flea using a 'found in raid' item looking for X Y or Z and I can trade you NOT FOUND IN RAID magazines from my vendors
lvl 28 4 kda ~40 S.R Looking for someone to help me git gud 😦
Any body wanna do starting mission runs with 2 noobs
lookin to sell a doc case :OOOO not FiR 😩
@forest pendant not really related to anything you said but if you want I can teach you Interchange.
what does the number after the 14 mean?
friends 14, then there's a person icon and it says 1
what does the 1 mean
is there an ez way to get the delivery quest done?
rip
use lfg
ive lost most of my things cause idk how to play the game at all...
Same dude, some days are just like that. U will gradually get gear back and it’s not the end of the world having to wait 20 mins just to get a few scav guns
Ran a scav and looked in my inventory to see two keys. Factory and MES.
Hey guys, I m a new player and was wondering if anyone’s willing to help me out a bit, I watched few tutorials but it’s still really hard to play the game, so is there any chance an experienced player can team up ?
Thanks!
so for the quest where you have to find a folder for therapist but skier wants it aswell, does it matter who i give it to or ?
alright cool!! thank you
just makin sure i dont mess myself up in the endgame or something
i appreciate it
Therapist will give .09 trader rep plus 7,700 XP + 70,000 roubles, while Skier will give you 180,00 cash, .03 rep, and 4,400 XP. Giving it to Skier will reduce Therapist's trader rep by .1, giving it to Therapist will reduce Skier's trader rep by .3.
Yeah, ultimately, as you progress through the quests, it doesn't matter.
ill take it
lmao nice
like wish it wasnt a sv but
I see a lot of people getting SV-98s with thermals but I've yet to get one
god i just went on factory with a kitted mpx and gen 4 and man was it a blast
Man it feels like out of no where all the pros are on at once
for the bitcoin farm: do the ingame hours equal real time hours?
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Hideout#Bitcoin_Farm
It's all in real time
thx - where can I find Leatherman Multitool (for workbench)?
Mechanic
any efficient way to farm for pilgrims? Been farming scav waves with no luck on factoyr
anyone need help with anything?
Hey just coming back after not playing for a long time have an ok grip on the basics but would like to play with someone to give me advice
im down @dapper sandal
@shut saffron shure
need help scav hunting on interchange
bois,whats the best beginner loadout/budget loadout?
Sks
aight im always running sks atm
But as always depends on lvl and what you can afford as a budget
Or mosin if your aim is good
For automatik weapon you prolly can only use what you find, i dont recommend unmodded aksu. If you want you can try mp5 or mpx what ever you can get from pk
Armor your only Option is paca except if you find stuff
No
alright thx 😄
My Budget currently would be sks sling backpack and paca
Rig i always loot from scavs Same goes for bigger backpack
And always keep meds in your pouch
ye alright thx for the help
can someone help me with shoreline it wont take long
also what r all the akm weapons?
if your looking for what items to keep in general, wanted to help everyone that needs it 😄
Does the 5-flashlights-on-the-front-of-your-gun-to-blind-the-enemy tactic actually work lol
Anyone got some tips on where to find morphine? I need one more found in raid for that damn therapist quest :/
@sweet ravine Med boxes, I can think of at least 3 on Customs
Just rush them every raid and eventually you will get one
killing reshala and his goons can net you quite a few also
Or scabs will spawn w it too
does spawn camping exist in this game?
yes
my scav runs are kinda ok , nothing goes rly wrong with it , but when i go with my pmc , i have went into like 4 times already and at least the 3 of the 4 times i got killed in the first 5 seconds .
but exit camping is more common
was it customs
yeap
yeah if u spawn in bottom left there are 2 spawns pretty close to each other
and 1 time factory
so people run and get on a vantage point to try and pick off the other urn
and factory...is well.....factory
well idk , bought the game yesterday and i was like farming shits with my scav so i can go decently gear with my pmc , and every single time i get killed like that
im havign to wait till the 12th
and its so annoying
12th = National Russian Day
so it will probably go on sale
I have an issue, i dont have friends so i cant squad up so i devised a plan:
- get a friend (hardest)
- find a trustworthy friend (second hardest)
- Not die instantly every raid
- Get betrayed by the friend (Also easy)
- Regain the hours worth of loot
- prosper
- Yeet filthy casuals
- Escape tarkov
- Die (easiest)
- Repeat
Yes, my foolproof 10 step plan
please rate it out of 6.7
solid 5/7
how precise is the hipfire in this game from the center of your screen?
in close ranges, depending on your weapon, pretty good
alright thanks
just be careful of recoil depending on what you are using, you don't want to spray with an ak-74u
yeah, ill watch out thanks man
what are the first few things i should be working on in the hideout?
Med Station generator workbench lavatory lvl2
And in General everything that gives passive boosts to energy hydration and HP Regen out of raid
though if you are a millionare you might as well just buy cheese from therapist and get medical xp healing yourself in the menu
what do i do with 'generic' items, like cigarettes, matches, dog tags, tplugs etc? Just save them up for barter trades? Also is there any merchant who sells decent AK ammo? I have a fairly kitted out ak i've scrambled together over my first couple of raids but running out of ammo
sell most to therapist, try and see if there's any barter you can do that gives you something useful, Prapor gives good ak ammo at lv3 i think, not sure about that, but barter items you might as well sell in the flea market as well
thanjks
@strong peak healing in ur stash does not give u health xp
ye but it doesnt give u it
oh, well, never mind me then
You get XP for lvl but you dont Level any skill
For normal loot: a few you can keep for barters or later crafts in the hideout but most if Not found in raid can be Sold
Also you can craft salewa in the med Station it is better healing than cheese
Good AK ammo depends on your trader lvl, some are also quest locked, otherwise flea Market is your Best friend
BT BP are good if you have more money BS if you are rich bitch 7n39 golnik is the strongest for penetration
PS is decent but cant penetrates lvl 3 i wasnt very lucky with it this raid
Stash getting pretty full, don't really know what to sell
Pretty much everything ends up being a quest item
dont get attached to anything
and it will take a while for you to use most quest items
if you have too many extra weapons, disassemble and sell to skier and mechanic, or just go with some random loadout into factory and try to farm some xp
So basically sell all barter items?
pretty much, what's your level?
Under 10 lel
ok, feel free to sell most to therapist
You can always Post your stuff here and people will Tell you what to keep and what to sell
For weapons: if you dont play it sell it, a fal is good but i dont play it so i Sold mine
I tend to Focus on certain weapons or weapon trees
lmao
OCD guys stay clear
i already want to die
EKP scopes feel free to mount them on your weapons and give them use, everything else just burn up in therapist
keep meds and any weapon mods you will use
Even the toolset?
Keep it
you can keep that
Gunpowder im keeping too
I need that ammo box
Pronto
There are some hideout items too?
Keep therm, soap, nix or, toolset
Keep the axe sell it later to Jäger
Keep the screws as well
Do the toolset trade on mechanik 1
Sell all the mods?
Plz don't sell me
Usw the grizzly to heal yourself after raids
can confirm healing in menu gives you general xp, not health xp
You also might want to keep the lightbulbs
bloodset toothpaste batteries ?
Sell
Bloodset you can farm easy later
Toothpase and Batterie have no Real good trade they are hardly worth the trouble
The soap and tp can be bartred for a armored rig
Lvl1 ragman its like 3 soap and 4 tp or so gives a lvl 4 armored rig
Everytime after a raid I spend 30mins sorting out this stash
didnt they change they make it so that you can kill player scavs without other scavs getting angry at you?
Taking too much time
didnt they change they make it so that you can kill player scavs without other scavs getting angry at you?
@fallen hollow That is if that player scav attacked you first
Clear often the small er the stash the more imprtant it is to keep it organized
Are you on standard or EOD Vulpaex
I am on eod but i played Standart 1 year
i thought they made it so that you can kill player scavs first
Standard for 1 year?
cause its quite annoying if they have a mosin and shoot it at your general direction and you just have to wait to be hit
Wow I don't think I can play that long on Standard lol
so do i just start a 2man squad group for example and someone joins and then we group up in game?
Add the other person in-game and use the voice channels yeah, pretty much it
alrighty thanks
Does therapist not buy dogtags anymore or does mine just not like me?
i did 15 times
