glacial sorrel
#

but still, its bullshit and you cant deny that

tepid fossil
#

The people you fight usually have better stuff in their backpack

#

That may or may not be worth looting

glacial sorrel
#

and if extract camping is in the meta please tell me

#

because i may as well quit

#

its boring as fuck

tepid fossil
#

Well it’s not

glacial sorrel
#

ok good

tepid fossil
#

But the people usually camping can’t aim to save their lives

#

But interchange is the worst place (for me) to go into unless I have an 11sr

glacial sorrel
#

well interchange is where the money is

#

as well as reserve

#

and labs but like i dont wanna pay 200k to get in

tepid fossil
#

So I usually just recommend people who don’t have the card to get a huge armored rig or rig and use manhole

#

Reserves is good

#

They added a new extract as well

glacial sorrel
#

yeah i heard

#

i never really play reserve to be honest

tepid fossil
#

Then get to it

glacial sorrel
#

i guess i should play it

tepid fossil
#

Even scavving

#

Can get you a lot of money

glacial sorrel
#

i gotta do some convincing with my cousin to play more reserve, he hates it

tepid fossil
#

Just solo it

glacial sorrel
#

i understand why he hates it, the dome and the extracts

tepid fossil
#

D-2 is objectively the best extract

strong barn
#

the extracts are fine with d2 now

glacial sorrel
#

yeah the new one right

strong barn
#

and the manhole, reserve is e z

glacial sorrel
#

you probably can pick up quite a few of those TV 110 rigs there

tepid fossil
#

Manhole is kind of eh

glacial sorrel
#

i went to extract manhole and i found like 5 bags just floating there

tepid fossil
#

It hurts to see it

glacial sorrel
#

yeah

#

is d-2 easily campable

#

i hope not

tepid fossil
#

Why is it?

glacial sorrel
#

i dont know

tepid fossil
#

Get to the control room, grab the intel folders that spawn there 70% of the time

#

Turn the switch

glacial sorrel
#

yeah true

#

200k easy

tepid fossil
#

Go from pawn to dome

#

It’s literally bank

glacial sorrel
#

wish i had 2 monitors

tepid fossil
#

You can find 4-5 intel folders if you’re lucky

glacial sorrel
#

for maps

tepid fossil
#

Memorizing it by hand is what I did

#

No problem at all

#

You don’t need 2 monitors

prisma stirrup
#

you can simply use a phone its not a big deal i manage just fine with my phone

glacial sorrel
#

it only takes a few runs but those are the hardest runs

#

ok

tepid fossil
#

Honest

glacial sorrel
#

does everyone get d2

tepid fossil
#

Yes

strong barn
#

Not everyone uses it tho

glacial sorrel
#

what about scavs

strong barn
#

No

tepid fossil
#

No

strong barn
#

burt they like to camp down there somwtimew

tepid fossil
#

I’ve never met any

glacial sorrel
#

yep i can assume

tepid fossil
#

Granted I use rr a lot

glacial sorrel
#

imagine a system where your breathing gets super loud when you camp lol

tepid fossil
#

And I go in there pretty late

glacial sorrel
#

ha rr, im too poor

strong barn
#

I’ve never met any
@tepid fossil
daaamn Ive got run up on a 3 man scav camping tunnels lmao

tepid fossil
#

Darn

#

Most I’ve met is people “camping” control rooms

#

Then again they left anyways because they were trying to exfil through d-2

glacial sorrel
#

i try to play on lower population servers because id say 40% of the time i play on US servers, there is a guy next to me when i spawn

#

i was literally taking my goldenstar and i couldnt do anything and i got killed right off of spawn

tepid fossil
#

The more pvp you participate in the faster you’ll improve

#

Pick more servers

#

I don’t even have the option to do that since I play on SEA servers

glacial sorrel
#

i guess but its nice to know im not gonna get killed 30 seconds into the raid

tepid fossil
#

You won’t if you memorize the spawn points

glacial sorrel
#

but as a beginner

#

i am struggling to find reasoning for people to spawn next to me

#

when there are about 3 times the amount of spawns as players

tepid fossil
#

Well

jovial sleet
#

welcome to eft

tepid fossil
#

If you can’t just assume there’s a person across of you

#

It really helps in memorizing the spawns

#

Then you can look at your map if you guessed correctly

#

I did that back when I was new and I had an easier time memorizing the spawns for customs

glacial sorrel
#

yeah

#

i play customs about half as much as interchange

#

i play interchange a lot but i gotta admit the campers are annoying

tepid fossil
#

I avoid interchange

glacial sorrel
#

i do feel like it would be easy to camp in any map though

tepid fossil
#

Actually

#

The only time I’ve died to exfil campers was when I did interchange

#

I’ve died the most to exfil campers on that map

glacial sorrel
#

there is some fuck on twitch who literally streams himself exit camping

#

exfilcamper on twitch

tepid fossil
#

Oh that guy

glacial sorrel
#

i kinda hate him ngl

tepid fossil
#

Eh

glacial sorrel
#

i dont know him

tepid fossil
#

It’s part of the game

glacial sorrel
#

hes the definition of a rat lol

#

he uses a reap ir and camps emercom

tepid fossil
#

I don’t think that’s what a “rat” would do

glacial sorrel
#

and i hate to see how much money he makes because people shouldnt be rewarded for that

acoustic falcon
#

its part of life

tepid fossil
#

But hey atleast when you kill them it feels nice

glacial sorrel
#

i mean i got camped on dorms car exit once

tepid fossil
#

Yeah I always get exfil camped in real life

glacial sorrel
#

last two seconds and i couldnt see the guy on the stairs cause the tree was blocking it

tepid fossil
#

You know the other day I was walking back to my home then suddenly I get shot by a dude from across of me

glacial sorrel
#

i was walking out of my house

stone moss
#

musta been using PRS

glacial sorrel
#

there was a guy on my porch camping me

tepid fossil
#

Nono

#

Saiga 9 with pst man

glacial sorrel
#

yes

tepid fossil
#

Gotta love em

#

Only on Wednesdays though

glacial sorrel
#

i got camped so hard and i messaged the guy but i wasnt mad cause he was doing shooter born in heaven

stone moss
#

IDK extract camping is how Nikita wants you to play tarkov anyway

tepid fossil
#

In a way yea

glacial sorrel
#

yeah

stone moss
#

The rest of the map is irrelevant

#

Should just make all of them smaller tbh

tepid fossil
#

No just make it so that people spawn perpendicularly From each other

glacial sorrel
#

what if everyone spawned at the same place and the last man standing got to loot the map

stone moss
#

make it so you all spawn in a circle

tepid fossil
#

In one small box with a 30 second extract

acoustic falcon
#

my mom almost exfil camped me

stone moss
#

Honestly we should just paratroop in

tepid fossil
#

Well anyways @glacial sorrel

glacial sorrel
#

yes

tepid fossil
#

Even if your cousin doesn’t like that map

glacial sorrel
#

yeah lol

tepid fossil
#

Just do it solo

glacial sorrel
#

yeah

tepid fossil
#

It’s actually a super good map

#

Even if you want Do a scav

glacial sorrel
#

ik i still hate the dome but it is money

#

i do my scavs all the time

#

im proud of it

#

free loot

tepid fossil
#

That’s nice but if you’re not really poor

bold kernel
#

hello

tepid fossil
#

There’s no reason to

#

Hello

bold kernel
#

just got the game can anyone help me

glacial sorrel
#

exactly

tepid fossil
#

Unless you find it fun

wanton sparrow
#

Does anyone know the best ways to make money? I have like 80k roubles left and I dont want to go into raids with PMC because i dont want to die and have to pay the 10k to therapist.

glacial sorrel
#

once i blew 6 mil in one day because i just wanted pvp action

#

i was traumatized

tepid fossil
#

Tough

glacial sorrel
#

i only had 7 mil

narrow patrol
#

oof

tepid fossil
#

Well even if you blew 6 mil you’ll earn it back

glacial sorrel
#

i earned it back lol

tepid fossil
#

Atleast you didn’t blow 20 mil in a single week

#

I did that last wipe

acoustic falcon
#

@wanton sparrow play scav

tepid fossil
#

@wanton sparrow use your scav

glacial sorrel
#

well 6*7 is 42

acoustic falcon
#

literally free money.

tepid fossil
#

Do it wisely though

glacial sorrel
#

i could blow 42 mil in a week

tepid fossil
#

Do actual maps

wanton sparrow
#

@acoustic falcon @tepid fossil just go in and extract or rat around for a little bit?

tepid fossil
#

Try to memorize loot runs and do it on your scav

acoustic falcon
#

like hanzsu said, do it wisely. more risk more reward

tepid fossil
#

Once you have enough money do your pmc

glacial sorrel
#

i wanna get a special account where i can scav in on labs and be a raider

wanton sparrow
#

Thanks for the help guys, time to scav

tepid fossil
#

Sounds like easy mode

#

Have fun

wanton sparrow
#

Thanks, you too

narrow patrol
#

@glacial sorrel thats fucking easy mode lmao

glacial sorrel
#

exactly

tepid fossil
#

If only it wasn’t 2:27 am

#

I would have fun

glacial sorrel
#

i get scared of tarkov at midnight so i watch twitch

acoustic falcon
#

eu Extract

tepid fossil
#

Everyone assumes I’m on eu

#

But I come from the rice fields

acoustic falcon
#

right side of globe is all europa :v)

tepid fossil
#

i get scared of tarkov at midnight so i watch twitch
@glacial sorrel I used to have this problem too

#

I come from the rice fields

glacial sorrel
#

well you cant deny tarkov is easiest mid day

tepid fossil
#

Where garbage start with an a

#

Well you’re not lying

#

But I like it kind of at midnight

#

Tons more people running full gear

glacial sorrel
#

so what rooms are best on reserve

narrow patrol
#

tbh

glacial sorrel
#

i know theres that one room rb-ak you dont have to have a key for

tepid fossil
#

Marked

narrow patrol
#

all rooms are amazing

modern steppe
#

duuuude i cant go into any raids as a pmc only as a scav

#

help

tepid fossil
#

Also the drop down

narrow patrol
#

in resserve

tepid fossil
#

@modern steppe what do you mean?

modern steppe
#

i load into the raid and then the game crashes

#

some server error

tepid fossil
#

@narrow patrol some of the keys aren’t actually worth buying if you aren’t gonna go to them every run

glacial sorrel
#

did you restart

modern steppe
#

its been happening for days

tepid fossil
#

Like the one’s on dome and rb pp

narrow patrol
#

hehehe pp

tepid fossil
#

Oh I think you should report bug that

#

But besides those keys the others are all equally as good

#

So all the keys are good

#

Besides pp and ones on dome of you aren’t running them almost every raid

glacial sorrel
#

i have rb-mp12 i think it has like a folder with intelligence spawn

tepid fossil
#

Yes

#

But you don’t even need keys for reserves

#

If you go to the control room

#

The desks have a high chance for intel folders

#

Most I’ve found was 5 intel folders

glacial sorrel
#

damn

tepid fossil
#

It’s easy bank I’m telling you

#

Even at that you can hit manhole

glacial sorrel
#

are there any videos on like good routes for the map

tepid fossil
#

I mean YouTube has guides for it I guess

#

But honestly I wouldn’t recommend soloing reserves if you’re learning it unless you’re willing to lose a bit of money

glacial sorrel
#

yeah thats why i dont play it

#

there is my problem

tepid fossil
#

Well

#

Easy solution

#

Just scav it until you’re comfortable

glacial sorrel
#

im never comfortable with this game

tepid fossil
#

Map is smaller than customs so it’s a lot easier to learn

#

Well whatever fits your definition of comfortable in this game

#

For me it’s not feeling nervous 90% of the time

glacial sorrel
#

idk i have a hard time not freaking out

#

i know i am not a bad pvp player

#

i can kill people

#

but the problem is that people can get wildly lucky

tepid fossil
#

It’s part of the game

queen kiln
#

Are you using proper armour?

tepid fossil
#

You need to realize that

#

Then you’ll be good

mighty patrol
#

Eep I'm nervous 100% of the time since one bullet will kill me. "Head,eyes"

tepid fossil
#

Don’t think about the head eyes

#

Your armor can tank for you anyways

mighty patrol
#

Tell that to the game lmao 99% of the reasons I'm dead xD

tepid fossil
#

If you’re slow walking in the middle of the open

#

That might be why you keep on getting head eyes

mighty patrol
#

It s like the movie wanted where the bullets curve no matter how you run into one point

glacial sorrel
#

why do some people not wear helmets

#

as dumb as head eyes is

#

people can shoot the back of your head

tepid fossil
#

Because people get one tapped anyways

#

I had at one point stopped using helmets last wipe

#

I had no problems surviving

potent wagon
#

sometimes people think that everyone is gonna use high-end bullets so it's gonna be pointless to wear helmet

tepid fossil
#

It s like the movie wanted where the bullets curve no matter how you run into one point
@mighty patrol feels like to sometimes

glacial sorrel
#

i mean if youre wearing a class 4 helmet the chances of you getting one tapped are reduced

#

it might just be worth that price of the helmet

tepid fossil
#

By what from 100% ???%

glacial sorrel
#

idk

tepid fossil
#

Helmets are rng

glacial sorrel
#

but enough for me to want to wear one

tepid fossil
#

Not blaming you though

potent wagon
#

for me, i will keep using helmets with hope of ricocheting some bullets

tepid fossil
#

I’ve been saved from lps

glacial sorrel
#

i dont think anyone really understands bullet pen and i dont either so im gonna take the chance

tepid fossil
#

I usually use helmets for cheap bullet protection

#

Class 4 helmets ricochets bt half of the time too

glacial sorrel
#

whats wrong with ricochets

potent wagon
#

helmet + face shield = no stupid 1 tap from scav

tepid fossil
#

That too

#

Ricochet chances

#

A chance for a bullet to bounce off your helmet

glacial sorrel
#

i got one tapped by a scav lol

tacit sleet
#

Hey
I need a good map for the reserve underground tunnels please

glacial sorrel
#

i heard him but i couldnt see him cause the room was dark

tepid fossil
#

I don’t think there is any yet

lapis mauve
#

The wiki has a decent one

tepid fossil
#

I’ve been head eyes by a scav on multiple occasion @glacial sorrel

#

s

glacial sorrel
#

yeah its annoying af

tepid fossil
#

It’s mostly on factory though

#

The scavs with saiga’s are the ones usually head, eyes

lapis mauve
tacit sleet
#

@lapis mauve Can you send it to me plz?

bitter path
#

lol

#

bruh just look it up

tacit sleet
#

@lapis mauve You're a life saver, thanks

tepid fossil
#

That looks confusing as heck

potent wagon
#

yeah mostly when i'm looting in front of the bathroom, then a stupid scav kicked the door and put 20 slug on my face

tacit sleet
#

@bitter path No good ones on google and I dont have the wiki app

tepid fossil
#

Wiki is a website

tacit sleet
#

@tepid fossil No it doesn't

bitter path
#

google > reserve map > game wiki > scroll down

tepid fossil
tepid fossil
#

It is

tacit sleet
#

@tepid fossil I thought they had a mobile app

tepid fossil
#

Nope

#

It’s a website

potent wagon
#

the best way to remember the map is to explore it offline mode

bitter path
#

if you have a question about the game 11/10 times the answer is on the wiki

tepid fossil
#

No it’s 10/10 times

bitter path
#

ah shit you right

tepid fossil
#

Because 10-1 isn’t 11

tacit sleet
#

@lapis mauve thanks man

bitter path
#

quick mafs

tepid fossil
#

Think harder not smarter

bitter path
#

god brain

#

show me pls

tepid fossil
#

Just Nikita things

wise stream
#

Interactive maps are a life saver

tepid fossil
#

Never heard of those

#

What are those?

glacial sorrel
#

that ones my favorite

wise stream
#

Ye

glacial sorrel
#

it doesnt have reserve

#

but

#

it has spawns and stuff

tepid fossil
#

What are those?

wise stream
#

That one, yeah sadly no reserve

lapis mauve
#

That one is my favorite too for the range finder

wise stream
#

Yeah it's real nice

tepid fossil
#

Oh that’s cool @wise stream

#

Haven’t seen that before

wise stream
#

I pull em up on my phone to know where I'm going in a raid

#

Cause it took me a bit to find the medical storage on interchange

tepid fossil
#

It’s pretty cool though

#

I actually was thinking about a real time map tracker or something

potent tusk
#

I cant get tarkov shooter part 8

#

I get 2/3 every time

bitter path
#

mood

sterile tapir
#

Do you have to extract for the wifi camerca's for Skier?

#

(sorry for the ''spam'' I keep forgetting to check for the awnser)

twilit kindle
#

Nah

#

Just place them

silver hornet
#

@potent tusk same, for me last wipe, it was either 2/3 and I didn't see anyone else, or I'd get bullied every raid

sterile tapir
#

aight

tacit sleet
#

How much is the labs keycard sold for therapist please

mighty patrol
#

75k no?

glacial sorrel
#

you can buy it for 180k i think

lost ether
#

75k to sell to therapist and 189k to buy it

glacial sorrel
#

you can sell for 60

#

for me

#

i can sell it for 60k

#

does that have something to do with trader rep

lost ether
#

nvm

#

I can sell it for 60k

#

they must have decreased the price

mighty patrol
#

Could be 60k now. Might be nerfed. But i was 75k before

lost ether
#

^

#

it is 60k rn

glacial sorrel
#

is it easier to quest alone or with people

#

i havent done that many quests and i kinda want kappa, so i decided im gonna do them

stone moss
#

I love spawning in 3 minutes late

glacial sorrel
#

yep

stone moss
#

Got in, checked time, took a few steps and some dude killed me lol

acoustic falcon
#

some quests are easier to do alone others i couldnt imagine doing without help

bitter path
#

i.e. delivery from the past

lapis mauve
#

bullshit

stone moss
#

I tend to find any quest is easier with more eyes and guns on your side. lol

wise stream
#

looking for a foregrip for my adar build, where would I get one without flea?

pure talon
#

which lvl are you? which merchants are available to you?

wise stream
#

I'm lvl 6 rn and I have all lvl 1 merchants except treehouse boi

potent tusk
#

can you just kill your squadmates for shooter born in heaven pt 8

pure talon
#

skier lvl 2 has magpul mlok with 2 mounts and a place for foregrip with a -1% recoil for 12k

#

skier lvl2 has also the first worthwhile foregrip that's available to you, rk-4, with whooping -2% to recoil. for just 6k

potent tusk
#

tarkov shooter pt 8*

pure talon
#

i think you can

#

it worked in the pastt

#

people were paying 1btc per kill to finish this questt

late fulcrum
#

Easy way to make sure I extract with my skav?

pure talon
#

@potent tusk just rush your way to lvl 10 with sks and stock adar - which is perfectly fine btw

#

there's no easy way to extract with a friendly scav

warm ravine
#

anyone able to help me unlock jager?

stone moss
#

If nobody offers to help, i can help you after i get off work

#

in like an hour

tiny stag
#

if you spawn in late to reserve, where is it best to go to? everywhere seems looted crybear

spice pecan
#

Depends on how you're running, people always miss stuff

stone moss
#

If you spawn late in reserve you prob gonna get dropped lol

tiny stag
#

oh sorry I meant as scav

stone moss
#

pawns, queen, and underground

#

honestly, that map has loot everywhere

bitter path
#

knights and k buildings

#

somtimes under hemratic

#

could have hella bodies

stone moss
#

sometines top of dome too

#

Some snipers get dropped but not looted

bitter path
#

idk i play reserve all the time and rarely find or see snipers up there

#

most players camp tunnels like shitters now

stone moss
#

True, most will camp tunnels now

bitter path
#

still got people rushing drop down tho

stone moss
#

sniper dome was more before the tunnel was put in but you can sometimes still find stuff up there. Weapon crate up there if nothing else.

bitter path
#

yea tru

#

once tunnels came into play a lot of other shit became kinda obsolete for players without RR

tawdry oriole
#

anyone wanna help out a noobish player

stone moss
#

sure

#

what region?

#

and with what?

tiny stag
#

hey guys, what's the best place to store keys? I have a keytool that I use when doing runs but I have heaps of extra keys idk what to do with them/where to put them

lethal seal
#

spare rig

#

for a cheap option

tiny stag
#

ah that's a good idea, which cases can they be put in?

clever depot
#

f you put stuff in your container and extract is it FIR or not

gleaming dome
#

anybody know how i should set up my DPI and stuff?

edgy grotto
#

bruh

clever fulcrum
#

at what (current max durability/stock max durability) % you start considering armor unusable, on average?

lethal seal
#

personally i dont consider it unusable but at 50% i start keeping an eye out for a on par or better replacement

proven citrus
#

is there any nightvision scope that can be mounted onto a Mosin?

#

(or alternatively, a scope that kinda works wearing helmet nvg's)

clever depot
#

@clever fulcrum @lethal seal I read somewhere that a factor for bullet penetration is how much total hp armor has based on the original value.

#

Meaning if armor is 65/80 and 65/65 (repaired) it's the same thign

#

in that factor alone

clever fulcrum
#

yeah, I read that too, thats why Im asking

clever depot
#

Therefor I'd guess around 80% you start selling or keeping it for budget runs

bold kernel
#

@clever fulcrum for me i stop using it if its 25 durability or less

#

thats for chest pieces but then again im no pro lol

clever depot
#

25 less durability or 25/25?

#

@bold kernel

bold kernel
#

25 less

clever fulcrum
#

I usually leave all <50% max dura armor for trash quest runs

lethal seal
#

veritas made the battle buddy app that actually helps if you really want info

lavish pulsar
#

whats the difference between the ak-74m and ak-74n

short holly
#

so, i just looted a rolex watch in my pouch, unfortunately i died, but now that ive gotten it out it's not found in raid?

lavish pulsar
#

nope

short holly
#

so only items you survive a raid with get found in raid?

lavish pulsar
#

exactly

short holly
#

ok

#

thank you

lavish pulsar
#

no problem

stone moss
#

rip FiR roller

short holly
#

what about when i take a kit off a pmc?

stone moss
#

if they didn't find it in raid then no

short holly
#

i dont like that but i guess it could be abused

lavish pulsar
#

yea

stone moss
#

They supposedly did this stuff to stop hatchet runners and RMT

short holly
#

but i guess, worst case scenario its a bit of kit i can use

#

what's hatchet running and rmt?

lavish pulsar
#

hatchet running is when you go into a raid with nothing but your meelee so you can run and grab loot

stone moss
#

Hatchet Running - smart and easy way to make money without taking large losses. Usually used by people that ran out of gear and/or money. RMT = Real Money Trading. Buying in game items from a 3rd party site with real money.

#

RMT is against the rules and potentially helps fund hackers.

mighty patrol
#

well still, hes gonna need the rolers for scav case if he didnt build it

#

if not trade it for a nice pp19 gun

stone moss
#

Or just sell to rapist

short holly
#

i swear my scavs have some religious objection to stacking ammo properly

stone moss
#

It is to mess with you if you are OCD

#

Helping new players learn the basics of the game. DM me if interested

median spire
#

bt or bp?

stone moss
#

bp if u dont want tracer

short holly
#

fuck yeah i just extracted with an rpk

#

ive never seen one before :))

tiny stag
#

why do people run tracer rounds?

short holly
#

see where you're shooting or for marking your targets for your squad

mighty patrol
#

well if ur not running suppressor, you may aswell use BT

tawdry oriole
#

anyone got tips on making bank

light tree
#

@tawdry oriole what map do you mainly play?

stone moss
#

suppressor with bt is ultimate big brain move

bold kernel
#

Shoreline plus stashes

#

Easy cash

mighty patrol
#

iv encountered plenty of the big brain peoples

tiny stag
#

is shoreline better money than reserve?

#

for scav runs

light tree
#

reserve has the most loot

#

if you want the most out of your scav runs always do reserve

#

bunny what map do you recommend

#

for noobs to make cash

bold kernel
#

Yea I usually do scav runs on reserve and PMC shoreline

wise stream
#

scav interchange is also really good if you get a late spawn

#

just go through and loot all the bodies and such

light tree
#

@tawdry oriole I got 155 million roubles atm, i only play customs

#

Know where to loot and learn parkour jumps

#

also learn player spawns, helps a ton

#

if youd like i could dm you a couple of good videos

wise stream
#

cool, I love getting shot by a moonwalking slug running pmc as a scav

final vapor
#

anyone know how to bind voice lines to keybinds?

#

im tryna yell asshole at vepr hunter gamers

wise stream
#

dont like us?

short holly
#

how do you guys like to play customs?

#

also, will pmc's spawn at every slot at the start of a game?

burnt breach
#

not always

#

@final vapor u have to have the voice lines out and in the middle bottom u will see a keybind list

stone moss
#

@short holly I don't

#

lol

light tree
#

@short holly its fun, map is linear with plenty of cheeky spots that the average player doesnt know

#

also dorms pvp is great

#

its generally very difficult to be shot from behind which gives every encounter a fighting chance

lime willow
#

is it a thing to stack BT between every couple of BP rounds

light tree
#

nop

#

it is a thing to mix high pen rounds with high flesh damage rounds though

#

but people generally dont bother

lime willow
#

i can see the logic in that

light tree
#

id rather just use pure bt unless you are silenced

devout tendon
#

lfg EU. Semi geared on customs doing quests.

bold kernel
#

does this look like lfg daddy uwu

#

@light tree can you jump over the fence near the factory area where there is a blue car and toilet next to the fence? I think the area is called shortcut on the wiki map

short holly
#

you can but be careful i broke my legs when i did it

light tree
#

@tiny stag yeah, to make it every time you want to aim to miss on the right side of the edge

#

if you aim for the edge you will miss everytime

short holly
#

what map would you recommend after customs?

warm ravine
#

whats a good pistol that can kill most PMC's

short holly
#

i think you want the TT but im not sure

bleak zealot
#

Do scav bosses always spawn?

short holly
#

if you search up a bullet caliber on the tarkov wiki, each one has a table showing you the damage, armor pen, etc.

chrome ibex
#

@warm ravine Fn 5-7 with SS190 rounds go through level 4 armor, glocks with AP 6.3 but if you are looking budget glock with PST

#

@bleak zealot Each boss has a chance to spawn, almost all are around 40%

granite rampart
#

i need 2 flash drives for skier quest, any ideas how i can get them?

#

woods tent my best bet?

chrome ibex
#

Interchange computer route has 20 computers, woods tent, van on customs, tent near two story dorms on customs

warm ravine
#

on customs?

granite rampart
#

thnx

light tree
#

@warm ravine just go factory if u want to rush it

#

@short holly map after customs? customs again 😄

short holly
#

lol

#

im getting bored of it and i feel like im missing out on better loot

#

do the maps have like tiered loot?

warm ravine
#

do you go to dorms during your custom raids?

short holly
#

depends, but usually not

light tree
#

customs have great loot wdym

short holly
#

idk i dont see the high tier armors, guns

#

unless its off a pmc

light tree
#

oli logistic key spawns next to shortcut shitter car

#

easy 200k

#

goshan register key spawns in new gas station bus

#

easy 300k

desert hull
#

@short holly The maps have different loot yes

light tree
#

mes key spawns in new gas station ambulance easy 100k

#

etc etc

granite rampart
#

reserve best loot

#

no doubt

#

hatchet runs on it net me 100-500k per run at least

mighty frost
#

question

#

why is the pk-06 so expensive now?

granite rampart
#

meta scope

mighty frost
#

i swear it was cheap last wipe?

light tree
#

because its the only working sight

granite rampart
#

also whole game got a rework

mighty frost
#

:/

light tree
#

and nikita nerfs it by upping the price

granite rampart
#

wdym only working sight

mighty frost
#

so smart for me to sell it?

#

i found one

#

i need money anyway for stash 2

light tree
#

@granite rampart depending on your fov most sights are inaccurate

mighty frost
#

I use 63

#

I feel like 63 is good

#

Not too off

light tree
#

ye 63 is good

desert hull
#

@granite rampart it was the meta sight so it got a price nerf

#

to promote using other sights

mighty frost
#

So should I sell the one I found? @desert hull

desert hull
#

you tell me?

mighty frost
#

uh

light tree
#

just sell it man

still tinsel
#

Anyone know why I constantly get third partied

scenic kestrel
#

why even ask that lol

#

of course we have no idea

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

late fulcrum
#

Anybody trying to play together I’m new and I’m ass

short holly
#

what is getting third partied?

bitter path
#

you gotta finish your fights fast

#

more than 3 mins and someone else gon come running

desert hull
#

@short holly fighting somebody and then being shot by a third party

warm ravine
#

i am done with tarkov for today, I keep on dying again and again

delicate wren
#

that happens. in my experience, its good to take a break if youre not on your game. just chill, take your mind off the game, and come in fresh

late fulcrum
#

Same with me bruh I’m getting shit on 😅

delicate wren
#

that was happening to me all day on sunday, but ive been playing pretty good the last 2 days, and ive found some pretty good loot

#

ive made about half a mil today, and found 2 labs keycards, which is pretty good

late fulcrum
#

That’s wassup I’m struggling with scav raids 😂 I can seem to just extract without get drilled

#

*cant

delicate wren
#

its just a matter of learning what people watch, and where they can/will be

#

i was really bad at that when i first started, but know i know the maps i do almost inside out

#

youll learn it the more you play

late fulcrum
#

*The more I get shit on 😂 but yeah it’s like every other game I have to put hours in to see improvement

delicate wren
#

Practicing, and mastering your craft is the only way you’ll get better

#

I’ve put in the hours, and I’ve seen a huge amount of improvement in my play

shut mason
#

Where can I find the remingtion choke for mechanic part 1

#

does it spawn in weapon boxes?

#

like de other attachments

late fulcrum
#

Can I put a scav vest on my pmc?

shut mason
#

yea

late fulcrum
#

Thanks cuh

long creek
#

Hey I got a question

#

I managed to scoop this bad boy up before i ate shit at factory. is it any good?

shut mason
#

yea thats a reserve key

#

its marked room

#

in the barracks I think

warm ravine
#

pretty sure it sells for a bit aswell

shut mason
#

IDK how much it is on flea but I know the room it unlocks spawns good shit

delicate wren
#

its about 64k

#

on the flea

long creek
#

That's kinda low, probably better to try use it myself.

#

Can't even use the flea market anyways xD

delicate wren
#

yeah, unless you really need the money, might as well keep it

light tree
#

u cant sell it on flea because its no fir

shut mason
#

but there you go

long creek
#

yeah no, I ate shit xD

delicate wren
#

i think reserve is the next map im going to learn

long creek
#

Oh yeah, that room.

delicate wren
#

gonna get my hands on some raider loot

long creek
#

First entryway to the building to the right so to speak, then down one stair and to the right?

warm ravine
#

whenever I play reserves I always get fucked

long creek
#

Pretty sure that's the marked room

shut mason
#

yea

#

it spawns weapons and containers

#

and like money and ammo too

light tree
#

reserve is a thousand times more enjoyable if you have red rebel

shut mason
#

for the exfil?

light tree
#

ye

warm ravine
#

what does red rebel do?

light tree
#

it unlocks a special extract

shut mason
#

on woods too I think

light tree
#

so u dont have to wait for train or take the sewers or turn on the siren for the door

warm ravine
#

does it count as a paracord?

delicate wren
#

You can extract cliff if you have RR and paracord

warm ravine
#

or do you need a paracord aswell

light tree
#

ye

shut mason
#

yea

light tree
#

paracord and rr

shut mason
#

just put the paracord in your secure

long creek
#

What's rr?

#

Red Rebel?

light tree
#

red rebel

shut mason
#

pickaxe

long creek
#

Gotcha.

shut mason
#

climbing axe

#

how tf do you even get it?

light tree
#

it has a small cahnce to spawn in those green plastic weapon boxes

#

and a chance to spawn on shurtman

#

and a cahnce to spawn in shurmans stash

delicate wren
#

It’s 5.5 mil on the flea I think lol

long creek
#

Oh yeah speaking of which. I have managed to scoop up 2 of those keys

#

How hard is it to get to the stash?

shut mason
#

I dont play reserve but expect geared

light tree
#

u need a special key called shurmans key

long creek
light tree
#

its generally not worth

long creek
#

Got two of them xD

light tree
#

the cahnce of it spawning is around 1 /20

shut mason
#

oh

#

yea the middle of woods

light tree
#

in shturmans stash

shut mason
#

is the dangerzone

long creek
#

Oh yeah, isn't that the uh....

shut mason
#

which is where sturmann is

long creek
#

Fat log place

shut mason
#

lumberyard

long creek
#

yeah

light tree
#

id just vendor the key or sell it on flea

long creek
#

How do you even deal with him. Isn't there like a mil boss scavs around him?

shut mason
#

ur gonna be fighting everbody

light tree
#

he is the boss scav

long creek
#

Ah hell no :S

light tree
#

he is always accompanied by 2 guards

shut mason
#

he has goons protecting him

#

he uses SVD and AK

#

that are pimped out I think

long creek
#

Oh yeah i don't think I can sell it.

#

Think I got those when twitch drops was a thing.

light tree
#

they are armed with snipers, generally there are a couple of good rocks to stay on to cheese him

long creek
#

shiiiet

light tree
#

they arent kited @shut mason

delicate wren
#

You gotta get through him, and his gang to get to the stash

shut mason
#

oh really?

light tree
#

ye

delicate wren
#

And hope someone else hasn’t already done it

shut mason
#

Ive only seen him once so I just assumed it cause hes infamous lmao

light tree
#

no one loots his stash

long creek
#

Probably good to bring a fat backpack for it aswell.

light tree
#

its a waste of money

long creek
#

Can Imagine it's pretty stacked.

light tree
#

also shutrman doesnt spawn a 100%

long creek
#

For me, (lvl 5) it's probably good, no?

rough hare
#

how does one go about getting 15 pmc kills for punisher 6, this didn't seem to bad until i found out the svd is 90k?(60k on flea)

shut mason
#

isnt it 33%?

long creek
light tree
#

@rough hare go camp in spots or just factory if u wanna get it done in less than 2 hours

shut mason
#

scavs

#

the mags?

long creek
#

Those mags, yeah.

delicate wren
#

I think mechanic sells them

long creek
#

Or something for the hunter

shut mason
#

scavs with vepyrs is where i get em

rough hare
#

I just don't want to get drilled by people running insane loadouts in factory, but I want it done asap too xD

delicate wren
#

Someone does for sure

long creek
#

@rough hare Do like I do.

light tree
#

@rough hare go camp in sniper spots in woods or just customs

shut mason
#

kairon just take a armoured rig,AK, and a SSH68

long creek
#

Run a fucking dogshit TOZ

shut mason
#

lmao

#

mosin

#

light tree
#

rough hare
#

@shut mason I need svd kils

shut mason
#

ooh

#

#

worthy talon
#

shut mason

rough hare
#

light tree
#

rough hare
shut mason
#

light tree
#

long creek
#

That's fat, yea

shut mason
#

thats svd is loaded

worthy talon
#

woods run that

long creek
#

Is it possible to smack on a silencer on a hunter , or a mosin?

light tree
#

mosin yes

#

hunter no

long creek
#

:I

rough hare
#

I feel like ima get one tapped if I bring it in

light tree
#

@rough hare tbh i would build up stash value abit

rough hare
#

thats my luck

shut mason
#

dont bring that on factory

light tree
#

to get rid of gear fear

#

if u are scared to bring something it dont run it

#

because u will make bad decisions

long creek
#

I need to get a sniper mosin, what would be the most efficient way to get it?

shut mason
#

uhh

rough hare
#

its not that, its that I need to be able to consistently buy svd's for the quest

worthy talon
#

run with a crew

shut mason
#

I know prapor barters one

#

lemme check

long creek
#

Yeah but I don't have the materials.

shut mason
#

oh god yea

light tree
#

what do u need mosin for?

shut mason
#

batteries gon take a bit

wise stream
#

you cant get a normal mosin and yeet a scope on?

worthy talon
#

reserve has a bunch

long creek
#

Boomer I'm only lvl 5.

#

I don't have access to flea..

#

xD

wise stream
#

I dont either

#

im lvl 7

light tree
#

@long creek what do u need mosin for?

long creek
#

@light tree I'm dogshit with shooting AK (or smth like that)

light tree
#

go sks, great starter weapon

#

ps rounds are decent

shut mason
#

Imma go run interchange to get one gasan ill just do it as scav I already had one in my inv so I just need one more

long creek
#

I don't like the sight on that tho

#

The thing at the back of the gun ruins it for me.

wise stream
#

run scavs, they get mosins often

shut mason
#

flame try finding a EKP sight

long creek
#

Look at it xD

shut mason
#

its like 8k

long creek
#

Fat

#

I mean, I could try it.

shut mason
#

jesus

light tree
#

imo take some time to get used to it

shut mason
#

thats a fat ass stash

#

Im used to the AK because ive used it in other games

light tree
#

i wouldnt recommend mosin after the nerfs for new player

shut mason
#

the sights atleast

rough hare
#

@light tree oh, I didn't realise how low on cash I was, thats because I spent far too much on paca's and ratniks for punisher 5

shut mason
#

God im dreading the day I have to do the punisher series

wise stream
#

I go mosin farming on woods daily

light tree
#

@rough hare if you build up a massive stash value you get rid of gear fear as well

#

it helps you make rational decisions and play better

rough hare
#

I had a decent amount until I upgraded stash size

long creek
#

that's all I got.

shut mason
#

7n

#

39

#

thats the good shit

#

7n39

wise stream
#

the best shit, no?

light tree
#

no

#

u cant run that

shut mason
#

isnt sks 7.62?

#

wait nvm

delicate wren
#

PS rounds are fine for SKS

shut mason
#

7n39 is for mosin

light tree
#

buy ps rounds from prapor 1

shut mason
#

im stupid

long creek
#

those?

tiny stag
#

when you guys run sks what ammo do you use?

light tree
#

no

#

those dont fit in sks

shut mason
#

yea no

#

I was wrong

#

You got the best ak74 ammo tyho

light tree
long creek
#

Pog

delicate wren
#

@tiny stag I just run PS from prapor

long creek
#

Ps gotchu

tiny stag
#

thanks

shut mason
#

Ive been farming BT from scavs

#

since I cant buy it yet

delicate wren
#

Cheap, and decent for the price.

light tree
#

@tiny stag depends on if i run a mag or not, generally i like to keep a 20 rounder bp mag in my secure container if i see any big boys

#

u can select mag reload by holding r and scrolling

long creek
#

What's the M80 ammo used for?

wise stream
#

That T45M will run in your sks, no?

light tree
#

no

#

it wont

long creek
#

Somehow I got 80, seems good

tiny stag
#

oh that's super clever

#

thanks!

light tree
#

or it will but its bad

shut mason
#

oh uh

#

then im stupid

#

I have my BP in normal mags

long creek
#

I smacked some PS ammo into the SKS

light tree
#

m80 is the best ammo in the game cost performance wise

long creek
#

Is there a way to get a scope for uh... Sks?

light tree
#

u have to get a different variant of sks to get the dovetail mount

worthy talon
#

@long creek u wanna run i could help you a bit

delicate wren
#

You can put one on OP SKS

light tree
#

its the yellow one

#

the wooden sks doesnt allow for a scope

shut mason
#

lmao my scav has a AKM with a drum mag and no stock

long creek
#

@worthy talon I don't even know what map yet

shut mason
#

and no dustcover

delicate wren
#

That thing will kick like a mule

wise stream
#

T45M is second best ammo for 7.62x39 tho

long creek
#

Also, my pc has 8g ram.

shut mason
#

pog

long creek
#

So..

#

Yeah.

#

Factory is the only map I can properly load into lmao

#

Really need to up that ram 😒

shut mason
#

wackass AK

long creek
#

xd

worthy talon
#

ouch factory is rough for new players

long creek
delicate wren
#

You’ll find some strange setups on scavs

shut mason
#

Im new and ive made bank off of factory

#

but it is hectic yes

delicate wren
#

VPO yucky

long creek
#

I mean, It depends Ypezz

#

For me I found out that if I manage to get into the shower room, I can kind of fend myself

#

-kind of-

light tree
shut mason
#

Also my last scav run like 10 mins ago I got labs keycard

long creek
#

It's just getting there that's the issue ^^

shut mason
#

flex

light tree
#

ps is the 2nd best

worthy talon
#

yea until the nade god comes in

long creek
#

Is that for Sks aswell?

shut mason
#

No?

long creek
#

Or just ammo in general

shut mason
#

oh for SKS

#

The ammo has the same name for 5.45

light tree
shut mason
#

I use tarkov helper only because you cant see the shotgun ammo

#

ive tried

#

for the github one

#

you cant scroll

#

it laem

long creek
#

@worthy talon But yeah, I might not be so useful. Last time I tried to play with another guy, i spawned in suuuuper late. :U

#

@worthy talon As much as I'd love to roll with someone, it's hard :I

shut mason
#

My internet is too unstable

light tree
#

if u are just starting it the game is a million times more fun to learn from teh ground instead of having people hold your hand

shut mason
#

unless you live in my country

#

I cant play with u

worthy talon
#

im not worried like that i play with a guy that has that problem

shut mason
#

I tried playing with my friend in UK

#

didnt work

#

DCed all the time

long creek
shut mason
#

ye

#

I did that when I had a SKS

#

except no helmet

light tree
#

i always run a balaclava

shut mason
#

or vest..

#

: (

delicate wren
#

You probably don’t have to keep meds in alpha

light tree
#

without a face mask ur head is alot shinier

#

easier to target

shut mason
#

What does it do anything else bunny?

long creek
#

bala done

light tree
#

nope

long creek
#

Anything else?

delicate wren
#

A mask is worth the 3-4K

shut mason
#

I got like 2 nice ass balaclavas

#

2 CFs

light tree
#

also if you cant afford it, dont run a helmet

#

or its peference

#

but most of the times if a player headshots u u will die anyways

long creek
shut mason
#

Ive never used a ratnik but when I had a ssh68 it worked fine

bitter path
#

penis is basically the default until you start getting better gear

long creek
#

Okay no actually

#

I need to find Salewas for a quest

#

Recomendations?

bitter path
#

i would keep at least 10 of your rounds in your pocket

light tree
#

so if u are playing customs

shut mason
#

salewas?

light tree
#

there is a salewa spawn on the back of a car

#

in checkpoint

desert hull
#

@bitter path SSh is default until like... LL4 all traders

long creek
#

Is it that one where there's 4 cars in a row?

shut mason
#

Oh I did a big brain move and crafted the salewas

long creek
#

And you can jump over the wall?

shut mason
#

cause i couldnt find em

bitter path
#

you can find them in white bishop on reserve

light tree
#

its the weird little building where a sniper scav spawns on the right side of the map

#

he is on the 2nd floor covered by fences

shut mason
#

I got a generator and medstation and grinded on scav interchange for fuel and crafted my salewas

#

Prolly a stupid move

long creek
#

If I run a scav on customs, does killing scavs count towards my quest?

light tree
#

nope

shut mason
#

Na

long creek
#

shiiet

delicate wren
#

quests only count on PMC

light tree
#

scav doesnt give exp to ur pmc or quest progression

shut mason
#

You can find quest keys on scav tho

delicate wren
#

Don’t make the same mistakes I made kids

light tree
#

or u can progress by finding items on ur scavs and turning them in for your quest

long creek
#

well, gonna do a fac run on my scav, see how that goes

#

brb

bitter path
#

fac run scav for quick gear

#

might be shit but itll work

shut mason
#

what I did for prapor was find the key I needed to open a truck for a watch and exchange it to my PMC and then I ran to the truck as my PMC

#

It worked out

long creek
#

true

light tree
#

if you want to make roubles always do reserve scav runs, great extracts and a ton of loot

shut mason
#

I just get lost on reserve

#

Ive tried learning the map

bitter path
#

use your scav

#

nothing to lose

shut mason
#

I do

light tree
#

id rather spend time in offline mode going around

shut mason
#

I dont run maps as PMC until I learn them

bitter path
#

youll get the hang of reserve, its worth it

shut mason
#

or offline

#

I learned customs on offline

light tree
#

if you have a second monitor pin point ur exact location every 10 min or so

delicate wren
#

I still need to do the prapor pocket watch quest LMAO

light tree
#

on a map

delicate wren
#

I’m being lazy lol

shut mason
#

heh I use my phone

#

no 2nd monitor

bitter path
#

unless you have RR reserve be rough cause all the noobs camp d2 and tunnels

shut mason
#

damn

#

Im a noob and I dont even camp

#

what nerds

mellow thorn
#

Bunny how do you pin point your location on the second monitor

delicate wren
#

I’ve only run into extract campers 1 or 2 times

shut mason
#

the detailed ass maps

#

thats how gaemr

light tree
#

you open a map on your second monitor and try to pin point your own location every now and then

mellow thorn
#

im new just started yesterday

light tree
#

as a exercise

shut mason
#

here one moment

light tree
#

it helps with the map learning curve

mellow thorn
#

oh okay

#

i definitely like the reserve map

light tree
#

map knowledge is alot more important than gunplay in this game imo

shut mason
#

This map taught me to memorize customs

light tree
#

also what new players generall dont know is that

#

increasing ur fov fucks w sights that dont magnify

shut mason
#

This is the interchange Map I use. Ive only learnt OLI and the back of interchange

light tree
#

as well as laser pointers

shut mason
#

I thought aslong as ur fov isnt 75 you are good

#

mine is on 74 and im fine

night oak
#

The mapgenie ones are good too

delicate wren
#

Interchange was pretty easy for me to learn

shut mason
#

I learnt factory just by playing

night oak
#

Maps are amazing and have toggle-able loot. Somewhat out of date but not bad

shut mason
#

its not that hard to learn it
