[proven star]

Do you need gas analysers for anything other than quests

[raven gazelle]

hideout but they r very cheap

[inner sentinel]

Fellas is the 7.62 AR platform viable?

[mossy valve]

yes cause ps ammo is dirt cheap and is still good

[inner sentinel]

I'm broke and can't afford good 5.45 ammo

Aight

So it's worth to slightly kit an AKM or should I just spam 15k AKMS and VEPR?

[mossy valve]

thats up to you lol but akm is one of my faves

[inner sentinel]

Neat,thanks for the tip my man

[valid shard]

anyone want to play with a newb? im very very new, but not dumb. looking to learn, can follow directions, and willing to do whatever

[native vessel]

@inner sentinel Using 7.62x39 PS is fairly inexpensive choice to use and obliterate people with

[inner sentinel]

Wonderful haha

So It'll pen class 4 easily?

[native vessel]

Easily? No, but it has the second best penetrating power out of all 7.62 type rounds, and it's cheap

It gets the job done.

[inner sentinel]

allrighty

Thanks man

[native vessel]

@inner sentinel

2nd is the penetrating power

[inner sentinel]

Gotcha

And it's dirt cheap

Allright looks like I know what to main

Thanks

[native vessel]

No problem

[verbal seal]

Hey so uhh im pretty new to this game my friend told me to buy it we played a couple of games and from what i know you spawn as pmc loot see a scav shoot him then all the scavs are gonna come at you then if you survive you basically look for a train or something to leave the game and get the loot i dont know anything else (except from the items i have in my stash when i downloaded the game) i dont know how to put sights on my guy which gun is good which gun is bad i dont know anything (well except you know if a part of your body is at 0 its blacked out and cant heal not until you die or leave you know the basic stuff and the insurance and stuff)

and oh yeah and if you dont have loot you play as a scav

[hallow thicket]

epic drops bro

fuck sicc case, money case, dogtag case, 3 bitcoin, gpu, or a flir, i want hunter matches an paca

[raven gazelle]

pls stop complaining about drops

[proven star]

Nice... a scav saw me from ages away and immediately threw a grenade and killed me

I couldnt even see him. AI power.

[ocean crane]

maybe it was a scav boss or guard ai

i think they are stronger

[proven star]

Nah was on Shoreline near the weapon boxes rock above swamp

Wasnt even near the rock yet and a scav went off and then a grenade landed next to me lmao

Didnt even have time to move, it travelled too far and explode a second after it landed xD

[bold kernel]

probably a vog

[lavish pulsar]

[lavish pulsar]

ok

[raven gazelle]

theres more at the top

[lavish pulsar]

waht did you do

[inland shell]

is the cheapest 1 slot key container early the keytool?

[raven gazelle]

its not cheap

[inland shell]

true but its technically the cheapest right? theres nothing except docs keytool and sicc case to hold keys ?

[lavish pulsar]

its better to buy a docuements case if you wanna go cheap

[inland shell]

i only have the 2x2 secure container 😦 makes it difficult decisions but its probably right idea

[lavish pulsar]

ripp

[near vector]

When the game says damage dealt to body and absorbed by armor. Does that mean i actually dealt so much to the body, or is it that i dealt that much but the armor asbsorbed so much so what i actually dealt was listed?

for example, if i deal 100 damage and 90 was absorbed by armor, is that i dealt 100 or i dealt 10..

[river cloak]

Is there any helmet that is decently budget for new players that have a decent protection and visor?

[ocean swift]

Hey guys, I'm having a hell of a time finding a multitool and grinding out scav kills on factory and customs just getting wrecked over and over putting like a 100k into each run - feels like i've been level 8 forever. still need white armor and shotguns for skier - i feel like it's been 2 days no progress. so any help would be apreciated

i did get that customs doc but am scared as shit to bring it in raid to factory

[near vector]

i hear factory is good but im new to it so dont take my word for it.

if you go factory id take like no gear or just scav it

(good for shottys and armor that is)

[ocean swift]

i guess... no gearing feels dirty, like 1 shot to the chest and you are done. i've been doing scav runs to make money and that's fine but not finding and really i want to progress my dude

[raven gazelle]

buy a multitool

[ocean swift]

i can't

[raven gazelle]

y?

also y u playin factory

[ocean swift]

oh shit... the multtool is just sold by that mo fo

[raven gazelle]

dont play factory if u aint good enough to play factory

[white burrow]

Hello, I am on Therapist second quest

I know you need 3 gas analyzers total

For the first quest does that one need to be found in raid

Or no

[raven gazelle]

no

[white burrow]

The second part needs 2 found in raid right

[raven gazelle]

yes

[white burrow]

Ok thanks

I already have 2

Just need to get to level 10 and buy one off market then

[raven gazelle]

or find it and put it in ur pouch

[white burrow]

If you die and pouch the item is it “found in raid”

[raven gazelle]

no

[white burrow]

I see

Also for the optional quests does doing it give you any bonuses

[raven gazelle]

no

[hexed niche]

how to turn gun sounds off?

[raven gazelle]

what

[hexed niche]

i mean down

can you turn gun sounds down?

they are really loud

[raven gazelle]

i think gun sounds r pretty normal

dont think u can turn them down

[hexed niche]

well i have my volume max so i can hear footsteps with my tac earphones ig

[raven gazelle]

so just turn ur headphones down

[delicate wren]

Are there any things you guys suggest I do as I’m first starting off to get myself up and running?

[raven gazelle]

use ur scav whenever u can to get loot and do ur quests to lvl up

[delicate wren]

How do the quests work?

[ocean crane]

they tell you to do a certain task and once you do it you get rewards

[raven gazelle]

go to ur traders and click on tasks and they will ask u to do something and once uve down it they will give a reward

u can look up on google or utube on how to do it

[delicate wren]

Do you have to do them in PMC runs or can you do them in both?

[raven gazelle]

depends on the task

[vague solar]

The only thing you can do on a scav to progress tasks is get found-in-raid items that some tasks need. If your task is to "kill 15 scavs" or something like that, you cannot progress it on a scav run.

[bold kernel]

[vital mortar]

Or if it's a quest like golden swag, find the golden zippo and place it in trailer, those don't work on scav neither, as the quest item only spawns for pmc who has the quest and you have to do a specific action

[sullen dew]

yo do I need to be beside the car on customs the entire minute in order to extract?

[hexed niche]

I found a huge bug

And I am pretty sure video evidence too

[analog fulcrum]

@sullen dew u can come in the last 5sec and still u will extract

[hexed niche]

There is a bug that makes people invisible but you can still take damage from them.

[sullen dew]

@analog fulcrum sick thanks

[daring terrace]

Yeah that’s been a thing

[analog fulcrum]

and u can check time left by double clicking O, after u payed for the car @sullen dew

[daring terrace]

I rebound mine so hitting o once dropped it with the timer

[hexed niche]

I was playin with friend and he said look out person. I didn’t see the person. Then when the scav died he went to loot but the body wasn’t there. And he wasn’t playing a trick on me bc I was taking damage and I was behind him. This has also happened without someone else. Suddenly sometimes I will just drop dead with no gun sound and wherever. Out in the open or sometimes in a room. For example I just got shot walking around but the person didn’t show. I then walked into a very small room and crouched in corner. My characters then dies and I have no indication why or how.

Ah ok

It sucks ass

When are they going to fix it?

It’s a pretty big bug

Oof I lost all my guns to the bug

And my ak ama

[daring terrace]

Hard telling it was a thing last wipe

[hexed niche]

wipe?

[unkempt mural]

how was your food and water levels...

what map

the shots could have been for away and supressed

[fiery rover]

since you are new to the game, its hard to tell if you were actually killed due to a bug or cheater of if it was just bad luck a supressed sniper ect. in Tarkov are so many possibilities that its hard to tell at the beginning if you die because of another legit player or a bug/cheater

[delicate wren]

is there always a time out after you do a scav raid?

[fiery rover]

Easy example for a Bug: customs dorm 3rd floor i threw a made to the stairs inaide from the door that leads outside. My buddy pushes up the stairs inside and gets killed by my nade.

Problem: when He died He just dropped, He did Not get the soundcue for the exploding grenade or when i threw the grenade and it landes. I got the Sound of the Explosion.

Yes always

[delicate wren]

dang

[fiery rover]

To prevent people going scav All the time

[delicate wren]

yeah, i assumed it would be something like that

[worldly raven]

Hi guys I have really bad loading times; about 8 mins on customs, I have been told that getting an SSD will fix this. I have ordered one. Will it definitely fix my loading times?

[ocean crane]

it should

[worldly raven]

Cool

Its just the loading map and loading loot that takes long. My matching is quick and the other loading loot one goes very quick

[ocean crane]

it should help but it won't be completely fixed

[worldly raven]

Cool thanks

[ocean crane]

a better thing would be a cpu upgrade

[worldly raven]

Planning on doing that soon aswell

[ocean crane]

alright so i guess bear with it

[bold kernel]

@worldly raven yes a ssd will help ALOT

[desert hull]

@ocean crane SSD matters a fuck ton more than the CPU in loading

you can have a 9900k at 5Ghz, still will take 5 minutes to load on a HDD

[ocean crane]

oh didn't know that

thought the cpu mattered more

[desert hull]

definitely not

SSD improves loading from like 5-10 minutes to 1-3

Can someone help me with some tips for the Setup" quest by skier

like i want to avoid dorms since i hate fighting in there

but that is the only spot for pvp pretty much

[raven gazelle]

what is the heps key for and is it good?

[lethal creek]

I'm struggling with inventory management. Most of the items that take up my stash are those blue, lets call them "misc" items.
I'm considering selling everything that is not on the quest list. Is this a valid approach? Sell everything that is not on the quest list to npcs?
From this list I would only keep the hose and the plugs following this logic, but I have a feeling some may be important later...

[raven gazelle]

up to u so its good to keep the quest items but the fcond is used in a trade for a rr which u might want to do

[lime charm]

you can mute the stream. You're just not allowed to pause it

[raven gazelle]

but the crickent is useless

[lethal creek]

That's the problem, there are things here and there that can be useful, and There is no way to know everything by now

[raven gazelle]

and tplugs r very easy to get

[lethal creek]

probably if I have several of them, those are easy to come by

so I'll start by there

I'll be getting rid of those then, thanks

Can't have fun with someone who decides that an emoji is the only way to end a sentence. And then complains about my proper use of periods at the end of a sentence.

[supple nexus]

i also dont know how to get correct scopes for the corresponding guns i have

i saw guides on youtube they use flea market but im only lv 6

[gentle stratus]

also just this in general.

[supple nexus]

do any of you buy scopes from traders

[gentle stratus]

And also the carnal sin of having your facebook linked to your discord.

[bold kernel]

double click the attachment, there should be a little arrow on the right, when hovered with mouse will tell you if it fits a gun in your stash. @supple nexus

[gentle stratus]

Which he immediately removed after we mentioned it.

[bold kernel]

dude who cares.

it's a petty argument, this chat isn't for whatever that is.

[gentle stratus]

understandable.

[lethal creek]

Can someone help me understand why I couldn't extract here?

[gentle stratus]

??.??.?? may have something to do with it.

[lethal creek]

I don't know what it means

[gentle stratus]

It means it isn't always there. Or it may be 1 use only

[idle bluff]

It's not a guaranteed extraction. For where you're at, the floodlight on top of the bunker indicates whether or not it's available.

[lethal creek]

ouch, only if I knew that, 1011 was right there

[idle bluff]

In this case you're in ZB-012, so it's not a guaranteed extract nor is the floodlight outside on.

[gentle stratus]

That is a rest in peace.

[prisma stirrup]

The other one is really close

[idle bluff]

He had 12 seconds left in the raid if you look at the screenshot closer.

[raven gazelle]

he ran out of time

[idle bluff]

I presume you already ran out of time before you posted this.

[lethal creek]

haha, yes too late now

only lessons to learn at this point

[raven gazelle]

u couldnt have gotten to 1011 in time anyway

[lethal creek]

yeah but I went to this one since I was close to it, had no idea I wouldn't be able to extract

rip

but thanks for the info

[prisma stirrup]

Oh oops

I always go to 1011 better to be safe

[slender prawn]

Yo wtf was this dudes problem with me like for real ? :/

Can anyone maybe play and help me with this quest I'm on?

[left zenith]

what quest?

[plush siren]

Is it just me that found it extremely hard to learn all the map and extraction points in such little time?

Learning the human anatomy was much easier to memorize than a whole map of reserve

[left zenith]

I actually learned reserve very easily, a tip you can do is just do scav runs and explore the map, offline if you really want to

also always have a map pulled up on a different screen

[vital nymph]

Reserve is easy to learn, there only like 1 extract

Also u can orient yourself by the chess things

[lime glen]

gonna run some reserve/customs and interchange/maybe scav runs too/looking to help people newer to the game/im level 29/my 5th wipe/must be 18 years or older for invtite/dm me

One of the BEST! Features in this game is the feature where you are able to get shot by a person you can’t see or hear! Honestly it gives the game a nice feel that you could die at any moment and not even the best EFT player could prevent it.

[raven gazelle]

where is the best place to get lions?

What is the sharpness setting in settings?

[raven gazelle]

it adjusts the sharpness

[desert hull]

left is unsharpened

right is sharpened

it decreases "blurryness"

its like the difference between a 90% correct eye glasses precscription

and a 100% correct one

well, theres more to it then that but thats the easiest way to explain it

everything feels like it needs more AA in my tarkov, can sharpening be the reason?

can someone help me extract in a VC? im in a shoreline scav raid and im having a hard time

Which non-pistol/shotgun ammo has the least drop?

[olive turret]

@desert hull wait where do I get lions in idea?

[desert hull]

@olive turret 95% sure the displays can have lions/horses/cats

like the fake rooms

[olive turret]

Fuck I don’t usually check em

[bold kernel]

@olive turret They are on TV shelves

In the display rooms

One next to idea office

And two more spots as you go along inside

Aight sounds better than not seeing a lion in 25+ safe runs on customs

What's the range on flashbangs, ran a few metres out of spawn of factory and got flashbanged 4 times in a row from the otherside of the wall

Genuine confusion struck

As I theen got headshotted by a scav with a TT

Never have I been this humiliated

[keen topaz]

Scavs got aimbot grenades

I'm terrible at navigation ;_;

[latent ocean]

Woods

looking for jaegers plane

[bold kernel]

[latent ocean]

jeagers camp* xd

[raven scroll]

can i join you on woods i need to kill savs

[native vessel]

Finding the camp isn't hard, not dying is

[proven star]

I did that mission just before and forgot that you lose quest items when you die so i ended up going on a scav killing spree and died to some shturman guy

[native vessel]

shturman is the scav boss of woods

2-3 "warning" shots with an SVD, if you don't change position, the next one is your head

[bold kernel]

lol

[native vessel]

he's a nice guy

I like him

[latent ocean]

anybody can join

@raven scroll wanna join us yeah?

[native vessel]

He can drop the Red Rebel, which is expensive, and nice.

The guy had a crown so it woulda been player with the name

like realistic?

[sick cloak]

no like the directional isnt very good

its ok but not as good as some other games

[bold kernel]

I think it's fine

ik where im being shot from every time

[harsh badger]

the shooting is pretty satisfying ngl

[sick cloak]

i know where im being shot from but the direction of footsteps can be kinda inconsistent

[proven star]

Ive gone into a scav run at customs, been in here for 10minutes looting and heard 0 shots 🤔

What is this game coming to

Storage and big red were unlooted and all the stashes ive search are full

The heck

Dare i go into dorms lol

[sick cloak]

sounds fun

dorms is a spook

[bold kernel]

can anyone help me check the stores in interchange im hopeless at that map

[proven star]

I also found room 218 key so screw it

Wait do the scavs inside dorms attack player scavs ?

Cuz i aint got armor

[olive turret]

if its reshala and his gang yes

if its a player scav most likely

if its a normal ai scav and no scav saw you kill another scav then you're fine

[undone bison]

anyone care to help me out playing?

like team up and show me the basics?

[proven star]

That was some spooky stuff man... Nothing was looted in there...

@undone bison I can teach you shoreline

im not really that new

but i keep dying

ive died about 60 times this past 2 days

and extracted about 5

3 out of which i made some decent profit

i really need help, and i feel like although im playing exactly the same as i did pre-wipe, im doing something wrong.

[stiff bone]

im pretty noob too when you are eu we can noobup ;D

@calm nexus

[lofty minnow]

i need to get the "mechanic key" in room 205 in dorm on customs. Ive heard Dorm is a hot spot. I need to go in with PMC cuz if i go SCAV chances are dorm has already been looted. Is it worth trying to get the key as PMC with just a pistol on me? Or should i try to find a group?

[stiff bone]

what lvl are you?

[ashen hearth]

If I craft the propital in the med station but i have a lot of ibuprofen in my stash, will it automatically take the lower quantity left ibuprofen bottle or its random?

[lofty minnow]

lvl 3

[stiff bone]

i can help you at the quest when you want

i also need to do some quests on costum the key cost on fle like 5k are you na or eu

[lofty minnow]

@stiff bone im NA

[stiff bone]

f im eu ;

[lofty minnow]

):

whats the ping like EU to NA? other games ive played its like 90, where as NA to EU is like 150.

[stiff bone]

when you have 151 you get kicked

[lofty minnow]

gotcha

[bold kernel]

yea

I hate that

[proven star]

Where do you have to stand for the Factory Shacks exit on customs ?

Probably upstairs im guessing

[native vessel]

you have to stand by the shacks on the construction site

between the two holes in the wall, where you have to do a prapor quest

[sterile tapir]

Are some of the hideout upgrades passive? Or do you need your generator on. (Like the medstation gives faster healing and etc)

I never noticed it go faster...

[bold kernel]

anyone want to run interchange eu?

[proven star]

Cant we just replace that word

[analog fulcrum]

@sterile tapir pretty sure theyre passive(the health, water and energy regen)

Its that damn body in the small room near i think exit 0 ?

Silos

Great...

These god damn shotgun skavs man

Doesnt matter if i have lv.4+ armor or a helmet i always die in 1 shot

Shotgun scavs are the real enemy here

Omg that was so messed up. PPSH ftw.

Walk into the bunker and grab the letter and am rushed by a player and 4 scavs

I get a key unlock the place and get tons a fuckin loot and then I get shot by a person who isn’t there on my screen.

This is the 5th time today

I can’t get any guns ig not bc I have no skill bc I can’t shoot people I don’t see

He saw someone and I didn’t

They weren’t on my screen but the NPC shot me

Even the body

I do better as a skav than a pmc

I’m better as PMC

I tab out and can’t get back in

Play in borderless

that actually is the fix

I do already

Only items which spawn in raid count as found in raid, not items players bring

anyone else having issues with Tarkov crashing just as you load into a raid? was fine yesterday but constant crashes today?

@gloomy glade yh me yo

[ornate moss]

sup wasnt playing this wipe yet, is there any patch notes , whats new, anything important?

[gloomy heart]

are you meant to have more fps on offline mode then online?

[bold kernel]

nope

[gloomy heart]

eh im getting constant 60 in offline but i drop frames often to like 20-30 in online

[gloomy glade]

Yeah man constant crashes to the point I can’t join a raid lol

[gloomy heart]

does it say server closed connection or somet

[sweet abyss]

your fps might be lower because there's more happening in online raids

[gloomy heart]

i doubt somet is happening every like 10 seconds hah

[sweet abyss]

yeah but your pc has to load data from other players too instead of calculate only things that happen on your own pc

[grim geode]

Is anybody else finding it super difficult making cash now? I find myself keeping hold of pretty much everything in case I need it for quests / hideout

[sweet abyss]

Just sell them

and try to play with cheap gear with the intention of killing scavs and sell their stuff

that's how I do it when I'm broke

also look for an online chart for what you need for hideout and quests

that way you avoid keeping useless stuff

[gloomy heart]

should i be using ram cleaner and physical cores only?

[sweet abyss]

I do

I noticed some difference with ram cleaner

but look it up on the internet

there are loads of reddit threads about them that go in depth

[gloomy heart]

it really only plays up on reserve and shoreline

a lil on interchange

[sweet abyss]

I mean those are pretty big maps

do you have 8gb ram?

[gloomy heart]

yh

[sweet abyss]

ah

[gloomy heart]

and im on 400 distance too

i need to get more

[sweet abyss]

make sure to put your settings on lowest possible

and shut down as many other applications as well

8gb ram is a major pain in the ass for tarkov

[gloomy heart]

yh ik i need a new motherboard tho if i want more ram and then that means a new cpu too

might aswell buy a whole new pc xD

[pine mesa]

can anyone help me learn how to play?

[hollow sandal]

@gloomy heart Try to keep an eye out for b450 motherboards, and an amd ryzen 5 3600. You can end up with 16 ram, a great mobo and a cpu for about 350 bucks

[gloomy heart]

i literally have the ryzen 5 3600 on my wishlist on amazon xD

[hollow sandal]

Definitely check it out b450s can be had for around 120-135, some nice 3200 ram for about 60-75 and the 3500 for 169

Plus b450 will support the next gen of amd

[gloomy heart]

yh ill have a look into it ty

[vague solar]

What's the meta for training strength right now? Chuck 8 grenades every time you load into a raid?

[vital mortar]

ppl either fill up their bag with cheap stuff that weights a lot and walk around in maps like shoreline or go in as a duo and melee each other and healing

[harsh badger]

im tryna learn factory if anyone is doing it

since its small and i guess i can get ok gear quickly

[ocean crane]

factory is the wrong map for gear

[olive turret]

its also where some sweats go for quick pvp and loot

[harsh badger]

damn i was tryna learn to do that lol

[olive turret]

might run into altyn slick bois

[harsh badger]

where should I go?

im basically out of guns and shit

[ocean crane]

anywhere but there

and woods

[olive turret]

always use your scav runs

whenever its up

[harsh badger]

5 more mins

yeah

i always do

but i suck so i usually dont get out sadly

[ocean crane]

i personally like to go scav interchange i always get out with good shit without shooting someone else

[harsh badger]

ok ill test it out

[ocean crane]

that or i die to the sweatiest people

[gloomy heart]

should i uncap fps with a 60 fps monitor?

[harsh badger]

above 60 fps is useless

if your monitor is 60 hz

its probably the worst way to level up but what ive been doing is rush Factory with a cheap pistol and try to get 1 or 2 kills and pick something up as well to get xp and die

its a terrible idea right

[olive turret]

IC/shoreline pistol cache runs are better than that

[left zenith]

@harsh badger that’s not true

more FPS= less input lag

even if your monitor is capped

@gloomy heart you might as well uncap

but you can try capping it and see if you notice anything

[vital nymph]

just do quests lmao

while they're ez

[loud tartan]

Hi!

If I got hit and have 0 hp on a body part ( leg for example ), what item should I use to heal myself? Like to bring the leg to > 0 hp level?

[olive turret]

cms or surv kit

if you get blacked in the leg you can use a painkiller to walk normally and it gives you the option to run again but if you run with a blacked leg you will take damage

does the bullet get loaded in the chamber or in the mag

This is my AKM

Is PS ammo good for it?

[vital mortar]

PS is good for beginner ammo, if you want the high tier, get BP if you can

[storm fern]

Whats better about it

[vital mortar]

PS can go through tier 4 alright, BP will shred tier 4. Check ammo chart for that stuff

[keen kelp]

I need to do the 5 scav kills in customs if someone could help me, I am NA

[ocean crane]

yeah ps can go through tier 4 most of the time

[storm fern]

Any dealers sell BP ammo?

I am only level 9

[vital mortar]

and when sending pictures, make a screenshot instead of a picture from your phone, will make it easier for people to check what you're posting

Prapor LL3 after completing punisher part 5. So you will make do with PS for now

[storm fern]

I had forgotten the button

[vital mortar]

The akm is fine, can do much better, but you don't have Flea so you can't do much about it, With the AKM you can do well with it stock

[clever depot]

I'm struggling to know where to move during mid / late game

I can usually get 1-2 kills early but then Idk where to go for the rest 30 minutes

[rare escarp]

That just comes with experience. no one can teach you that. Just have to grind unfortunately

[dense veldt]

Just had a scav raid with 2 mil in keys and while extracting "lost connection"? Now I have a scav on cooldown and nothing

Why did that happen? It just kicked me to the menu

[naive ice]

Yeah that is normal

Sometimes tarkov fucks you

[cunning basalt]

Hey, I'm new to tarkov but I do know what I'm doing if there is anyone that would like to help me out learning customs/dorms a little more that would defiantly be appreciated [AU] @cunning basalt plz if interested

[dire rock]

@clever depot typically what you want to do is go into a raid with at least one goal weather its a quest or just plain kills or a loot area or something like that, then just take the steps to achieve that goal and once your done just leave, there will usually be fights along the way and if your looking for fights theres plenty of ways to get them

@rare escarp only things that cant be taught are playstyles and attitudes

[rare escarp]

@dire rock since he was talking about kills, I assume he is talking about where to go for pvp later in the raid.

[dire rock]

wherever theres bullets being shot, theres pvp

[ocean swift]

Hi is it just me or is Gumsith Pt 3 a little out of range for the level? Like the parts to conver the gun aren't available on the market

[white burrow]

Is it worth speedrunning factory to get 3M armor

[ocean swift]

I'd say no, it doesn't need to be found in raid so you can get it on the market if you can make 10

so you can do a run through if your scav spawns with one

[white burrow]

Dude everytime I play this game I get jumpscared so much lmao

I’m gonna die from a heart attack sometime

[ocean swift]

Consider it a feature. It means the games mean something

[white burrow]

Yeah

I’m ok with playing scavs but I will basically refuse to play PMC without a squad

There’s too many things to keep track of playing alone

Random scavs, other PMCs, snipers, etc

[ocean swift]

I understand that feeling, it can get frustrating, but even just do some pmc runs to get used to looting and putting stuff in your alpha/gamma

naked even

on customs

[white burrow]

I see

Maybe

[ocean swift]

because then you are still earning something and learning the level

going for hidden caches is good

also - you will get most low level gear back from insurance

[white burrow]

The caches are helpful

[ocean swift]

like ak74-u - condom helmet - 2 level armor

[white burrow]

I might run a couple of offline raids and just go around shooting scavs

[ocean swift]

that's a great idea

if you've got good gear put it on, it should be fun

[white burrow]

The only map I’ve tried to learn is customs

I’ve done maybe 30 or so scav runs so it’s pretty clear to me

[ocean swift]

It's a good first one except some of the early quests are rough and you run across high level pvp

[white burrow]

Only place I don’t go is dorms

[ocean swift]

factory is a good one to do for your scav runs

[white burrow]

Yeah sometimes you get unlucky

Yeah I would like to learn factory scavs

[ocean swift]

because you can just kill a couple scavs and run to an exit

[white burrow]

Seems decent

[limber scaffold]

hey quick question i have all the keys for res bunkers but rb-ps82 wont open or show the unlock thing

[ocean swift]

DysDiv: remember you can reset your account to default at anytime so if you find you are in a financial hole you can't climb out of you can restart. but you will need to redo quests

would lowering the resolution decrease the ram/cpu usage?

ie make the game stutter less

[bold kernel]

would increase cpu

lowering will put more strain on cpu

higher puts more on gpu

[sour plume]

well both cpu and gpu aren't really issues, just ram

[bold kernel]

ye im on 8gb

[sour plume]

same

[bold kernel]

no the best

[regal plover]

@bold kernel A basic SKS is a nice cheap option https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Simonov_Semi-Automatic_Carbine_SKS_7.62x39

[bold kernel]

how do i get the sks dont i need to trade things to unlock?

[regal plover]

Prapor has it already

[bold kernel]

ah ty

[languid flare]

I'd like the SKS more if it had a better reload ;_;

[bold kernel]

btw how will i know what parts fit what gun

like what sites and mounts

as well as gas blocks rails etc

[languid flare]

When you inspect a part it has a little dropdown arrow, where it says what it fits on in your inventory

[sour plume]

orb do you know if the ram cleaner actually works/does what it's supposed to or if it does anything at all/possibly has negative effects?

[languid flare]

Besides that, building a workbench and then rightclick 'Edit preset'
@bold kernel

[bold kernel]

is that only if you have the gun in your stash?

[regal plover]

@sour plume I don't know much about the technical aspects, sorry.

[bold kernel]

the drop down

[regal plover]

@bold kernel Yes, but if you construct thr workbench in your hideout you can see what all fits together

[languid flare]

<.<
Exactly what I said, yes
XD

[regal plover]

Like this:

[sour plume]

also once you get the flea market you can linked search a gun or a part on a gun to see what'll fit on it

also also you can wiki search the part and it'll basically do the same thing, tell you exactly what it goes on/what goes on it

[regal plover]

[languid flare]

Just to be sure: "Wiki" is the answer to answer 98% of questions 😛

[regal plover]

With the Weapon Presets you can see all parts you've examined before.

And try out different configuartions

[river topaz]

what's a cheap sight i can use on my sks just bought one

[left zenith]

op sks?

[regal plover]

If you want a sight on the regular SKS you need the SOCOM mount first

[bold kernel]

whats good ammo to run with sks

[regal plover]

If it's the OP-SKS you can use the dovetail mount

[silver hornet]

7.62x39 PS

[bold kernel]

should i pay for this or is there a better way?

[strong barn]

buy and use the meds you need to heal fully; that way you gain stats in your Health skill instead of just paying therapist for no skill points--essentially

if you use her post raid heal; you give her 8k rubles and miss out on the Health stat points you could have gotten by spending 10k on cheese and bandages

too each their own but I have level 11 health skill and Im level 43 so 🤷

[bold kernel]

ah ok ty

[pastel coyote]

I'm really low level and stupidly poor and I need help in some raids. Can someone help me out?

[misty hill]

Soo.. what does the health skill actually.. do

[strong barn]

Soo.. what does the health skill actually.. do
@misty hill It gives %'s chance less for fractures to occur; and use water/food less

[misty hill]

Ah'
Worth it then, overall

[strong barn]

if i go and jump off 1st-2nd story resort; I may only break one leg instead of two--likewise if you shoot me

Ah'
Worth it then, overall
@misty hill I think the extra 2-3k rubles it may cost is worth the skill being raised; aboslutely

[bold kernel]

best way to learn things? i've watched over 5 hours of guides and still have no clue haha

[strong barn]

Keep playing and dieing and watching more videos when you have questions--keep learning this game is knowledge more than FPS--and rpg as much as it is FPS

[misty hill]

best way to learn things? i've watched over 5 hours of guides and still have no clue haha
