So this idiot is running around T6 Armour, and a Shit helmet. It makes noo sense.

are 20 round mags for an as val viable or not really

1 was for sure thorax the other 1 was chest one was arm. And he was wearing those new helmet that are not even gonna protect him
use 30 round mags.

what do you guys think is great for scav runs besides reserve? The queue times on that map are 10+ mins atm for me.
and if interchange, which areas do you guys go to as scav? I check tech stores but they're usually very empty. THanks
naive tulip
need some assistance on interchange map knowledge with goshin, oli offices etc
chrome ibex
@tiny stag Interchange the value is often not in the techstores, learning the spawns for Oli and warehouse section of Goshan can easily profit a lot. Propane, hose, fuels, Kek, Metal Cutters etc are easy value per slot but you need to know what's good in the hardware sections
When I scav on interchange if the techstores are hit I normally will loot those areas and often get out with a decent amount of cash
tiny stag
ohhh okay thank you very much
chrome ibex
Also going on a murder spree in those stores also help a lot, the scavs are normally easy to out maneuver even if you have a trash weapon because there is so much cover
Also running goshan for food can be good since quest food items can be found there too, Ishkas Lunch Box (might have scuffed the name) also spawn in almost all the square weapon cases on the map which depending on the time in the wipe can be 10-40kper about 12k right now which is not bad since they are guaranteed in a ton of them

sell them and get a dogtag box

Kek is Not worth that much anymore
Also the best Thing for dogtags is the ledx probably since its currently rather expensive to get

hey guys do the scavs on shoreline spawn in super late or something? (ai scavs)
I am trying to get 10 kills for a peacekeeper quest and I'm running between 3 scav spawns but none are spawning
if someone killed them they are meant to respawn every now and then right?
chrome ibex
Some places respawn rarely, but there are a few places where spawns happen after players spawn in. Resort near admin and in west wing are spawns that happen late into the raid, gas stations area has some spawns later in the raid mostly near pier. The town north of tunnel extract with the tank spawns scavs later in the raid often. Shoreline has a reduction in scavs a few wipes ago for performance I think, but it has been slow since then
lament sundial
@tiny stag You'd be best running right to the SCAV hotspots once you spawn in. If you see no scavs there or they have already been killed. Extract and go back in. A lot faster than waiting for respawns that might not happen.
@tiny stag If you don't know the hotspots I can mark them on a map for you
tiny stag
I have an online map with the hotspots. Thanks heaps for the tips both.
I always thought that scavs just respawn after a few mins. On Woods I got my 4 kills of scavs in 1 life by sitting near sniper scav, killing the 2 that spawn and waiting a few mins and repeating
lament sundial
Yeah they respawn at certain intervals, but its not guaranteed enough to be worth waiting for.
chrome ibex
Another place a lot of scavs appear late into shoreline is by blue walled area near CCP extract, not sure why but I have seen large groups of scavs there but only LATE LATE into raid
But yeah rushing and just killing a hotspot or two then resetting is the best way to get it down unless you are doing other quests at teh same time
lavish pulsar
How much does intelligence sell to therapist
tiny stag
@chrome ibex resetting? As in extract and go again?
silent temple
Yeah it's probably quicker to get 2 or 3 kills and reset than to wait ~5-10 minutes for the next wave of scavs
and i guess safer, since your shots are going to attract attention
chrome ibex
Yeah unless you are doing other stuff on the map, or just want to PVP I would just reset
Personally I try not to do Scav killing quests unless I have something else to do on that map since killing scavs in generally a waste of time if you really want to level fast

Woods and Shoreline, probably followed by customs

@tiny stag Kinda up to you, but most maps you can do this...
Woods might be riskier because of all the campers/snipers

@little nova. Bare Mininum to actually run this game on a framerate that gives you a chance is a 1080 or at least 1070, like an i5 6700k or better and at least 8 gb ram although 16 are much more adviseable
@tiny stag Shoreline is best for that I believe

Ahh, keep the cobra and go to prapor level one.
He sells a very similar sight, the difference being that it has a super weird attachment that we call a dovetail mount. It's not worth it to buy or search for a mount rn.

Is it this???
Little confusing with the cobras because there are a couple of them.

U can sell empty tanks to fence.

Yes, sry, I was talking about the metal ones, my b
spice otter
Keep ur mag cases, don't sell any of them.
burnt bramble
the fuel tanks really aint that good
when looting
course im not selling it im collecting containter

spice otter
Ye, but 3 mag cases, 3 kek, metal cutting scissors, and 8 bolts nets you a lucky scav junkbox. Since the prices will be fixed at 1.9 mil, its def worth
ocean fable
how much does the lucky scav junkbox sell to therapist for?
spice otter
Ehh, u trying to get rid of one?
ocean fable
I am trying to calculate if its worth it to buy the mats and craft it in the lavatory to sell it to therapist for either very small losses or even small profit in order the money spent to her effciently
*in order to increase
spice otter
Mmmm, you'll def spend the money to level her. Lol, just from scav raids, you can get a majority of the leveling money
ocean fable
I have one but I dont wanna empty it out to test it there is no room in the stash figured maybe somebody would know but its not that important. thank you anyway

@muted compass no its pretty much the worst there is along with green tracers. with 9x19 you either go for AP 6.3 rounds cause they the only ones that got any noticable armor pen or you go for flesh damage/leg meta and use either rip rounds or luger cci
if you cannot get any of those I recommend running some different like a sks until you do 🙂
tiny stag
Hey I have 6m roubles and 20m stash.
I'm still using budget ak builds. Should I start trying out meta guns or keep as is? Fear of losing money i guess
muted compass
alright thx @ocean fable
spice otter
You could start using meta aks, do you have ur dealers up mango?
tiny stag
They are mostly level 3, I am lvl 26.
I think I need 33 before they're mostly complete
At what money amount did you guys start using meta guns?
spice otter
Hahaha, that's a funny joke. I'm a frugal person, and I'm always broke. So I just tend to use guns that are the best bang for my buck.
tiny stag
I think that's me too
spice otter
Except I always have no money

start by using the best ammo
then work urself into guns

factory is where im dieing to many FAT altin,exfil,as val dudes running around killing me

@bold kernel keep doing it, maybe bring a friend to refrag and safe your kit. Bring an svds with iron sights and nothing on it, 10 round mags ect. just dont save on the ammo use either 7N1 or 7N37
tiny stag
is there any budget sight similar to the PK-06? It's so expensive but I really like it
velvet mason
not exactly
i like the delta point and the pk06
dp alittle cheaper i think
its kinda like the reflex from rb6 siege

@tiny stag try the P1X or the fast fire 3

im going shoreline for kill scav quests if anyone wants to come we might find some loot i have alot of keys

Yeah, I havent gone Reserve at all this wipe.
I tend to freeze when a firefight starts... havent had this tho

that looks like a desync death... Unfortunately due to the servers being kinda bad atm that's happening

Saw people running in place and then suddenly i die

I wouldn't go that far

probably shit internet

They were getting DC'd and stuff. Fortunately, I have not had issues and I am east coast too. shrug

anyone know a good sens for 1200 dpi

Hey guys, I got a key called RB-OP and there's no offers on the flea market. any idea how much I should sell it for? apparently it has an intelligence spawn in the room
short patio
check on here it has fairly decent averages for the prices of things
https://tarkov-market.com/
tiny stag
thanks very much!
short patio
also if you play on reserve a lot the key might be worth keeping
tiny stag
yeah I think I will keep it. when I go to sell it the fee is higher than the key listing price
weird
short patio
hmm have a look at how much the therapist would pay for it, that would show you how much the inflated price players have put on the key
vague spoke
hey does someone explain reserve or any map to me im ok in the game but i miss map knowlege
stone moss
Might help to download a map online and do some offline runs.
But also depends what all you want to know about the map as well. There are places that list item spawns and things.
bold kernel
just lost 2m on svds going factory to get punisher part 6 done but it was worth it
stone moss
oh wow
short patio
@vague spoke have a look at the wiki for map knowledge as it has a variety of maps for reserve: https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Reserve
vague spoke
thank you but i can play the map to go online i just want to play a bit and maybe get to know some lesser known things
short patio
Might be a good idea to look into getting a sherpa to help with that
short patio
I think on this server they prefer if you make a request for a sherpa using tarkov's site eg
Send a request to a sherpa :

alright thank you

@vague spoke im about to run a reserve raid or 2 youre welcome to join

as a new player should i basically only play 1 map to try and learn it as much as i can

Kinda up to you tbh
It is easier to just do one or two maps until you get them down though

Just follow the quests imo. You'll get to know the maps slowly if pull out a map before going in.

hey guys any good smg/gun to run on factory? I wanna grind levels

btw for kedr/klin use PBM goes thru class 3 if i remember correctly

spice otter
Goooood morning Tarkov! Oh how I hate to know that I'm gonna get my ass handed to me all day.
spark fern
I am on Punisher 4 and I do not play Shoreline a lot, where is the best place to run into PMC's? Also, the map size says "10-13", does that mean at least 10 will spawn in or will there potentially be less to keep wait times down?
long lichen
Best bet is the resort
spice otter
There will mostly be 10, always rush resort for the quickest kills, but hit up landmarks if you don't want to deal with sweat bois, village, pier boat, weather station, an gas station are all good bets. The last tip I have is that you rush whatever landmark is closest to you immediately as the game starts, as they are the hubs of conflict in the first 3-6 minutes
languid flare
@spark fern It will try to get to ten, 13 is max.
Most PMCs would be around Resort or the coast

timid tapir
yeah, i heard the game is gigashit if you dont

Indeed, if you wanna run big money maps, u need an ssd

Not too bad.
Just loads longer.
Its doable without too

Should I run from cover to cover or just walk? Speaking about typical gameplay
fluid meteor
hi i am new can some one teach me??
ashen laurel
am i able to use empty blue gas tanks to craft mag cases in my hideout
bold kernel
yes
Keep cover close by if possible. I only run to about half my stamina if possible/needed.
Running is actually hugely noisy and can reveal your position to people close enough.
I "walk" and reduce my speed so the sound 'speaker' shows one line... I believe it reduces the range I make noise through foot steps.
@fluid meteor There are guides and helpful people on the sherpa hub.

@bold kernel I got to say this:
The

part, really make me stop.
Cause... yes, walking slower makes less sound.
bold kernel
yes but to what range/limit? Apart from the obvious reducing to slowest speed while crouched...
Why allow a range unless going mid way did something?
fluid meteor
mr eft do you know someone spanish??
fluid meteor
thanks
languid flare
I think, from experience/using it myself, that it has different stages (and not as many as the range suggests) that each are slower, but not always more quiet
bold kernel
Maybe... I just go by what information the game and current research gives me.
Works well enough on my teammates

I mean, yeah.
Its not like I fully researched it.
Just what little I found by playing and playing with it
