I am level 10 and am wanting to mount an acog or short ranged scope on an ak or sks. Not sure what I need to buy to make that happen? What kind of top rail, mount, scope is recommended on somewhat of a budget. Looking to get my sks done up for under 100k

vale wave
#

Restarting the game doesn't fix it

rough hare
#

get your friend to kill you and hide your stuff xD

molten pecan
#

me and my buddy had the same issue, restarting the game helped

vale wave
#

well fuck

#

I just got a code from a friend for the eod edition I put it in and it said it will send me an email with the device ID and I still haven’t got it anyone know what’s going on or what I need to do

wise stream
#

#

fast egret
#

Yes I have gone back just to make sure it was and it definitely is

#

It was the full eod version and I already had the basic version so I don’t know if that has something to do with it

#

@obtuse lintel

obtuse lintel
#

nah i am a really good sniper

#

trynna get pmc kills

#

just killed a 4 man sniper only

opal gust
#

holy shit

#

dont use 7.62 nato FMJ

#

i shot a guy on reserve center mass 5 times from close range

#

didnt go down

silver hornet
#

M80 ball ammo, yes

opal gust
#

i had m61 and m80 in my stash but i cheaped out

#

dont

silver hornet
#

Yeah M80 sucks against class 5

opal gust
#

it was BPZ FMJ

knotty skiff
#

m80 has treated me well

silver hornet
#

M61 will two-tap the thorax regardless of armor class

#

BPZ FMJ is garbage lol

opal gust
#

shoulda used m61,

#

i wont be cheap again

silver hornet
#

The only ammo types worth using for 7.62x51 are the milspec rounds

#

The .308 civie hunting rounds suck

opal gust
#

speaking of that, i have 4 stacks of bt 5.45 and a stack of bs, not level 10 yet

#

so much cash schmoney

obtuse lintel
#

yeah i got a lot of the best ammo for killing geared players

#

really fun to just one tap people

#

using a hunter

opal gust
#

I got the RB-TB key which gives me free AKs always with a mag of bp or bt ammo

obtuse lintel
#

wish i had any key tbh

#

i don't got much luck with keys

opal gust
#

rb-tb is so worth it

#

when you hit 10

#

also get the marked room nearby

obtuse lintel
#

yeah i been playing this game for two years almost every wipe i had the key

#

but not yet in this one

#

trynna grind to level 10 by farming pmc's but it is so slow with guns i don't enjoy

knotty skiff
#

uhh..

opal gust
#

im level 8.5

obtuse lintel
#

i am like level 7 almost 8

opal gust
#

massacre scavs on factory

knotty skiff
#

well why dont u put a little bit of effort so u can unlock the flea

opal gust
#

we are putting in effort

obtuse lintel
#

i literally just laid out a 4 man solo lol wym

knotty skiff
#

not when you religiously use snipers like johnny

#

you can afford to use a few other weapons to lvl up

silver hornet
#

Quests are some of the fastest ways to level up

obtuse lintel
#

but where is the fun in that if you don't got a good gun

#

or a gun with no attachments

barren dome
#

if i die in labs and my friends picks my stuff and brings it back to me in the next raid can we get banned for that?

obtuse lintel
#

cause no one under rank 10 can get a good scope or a good red dot tbh

#

@barren dome no

#

he just gotta make it out with your gear

#

and come back in with it

silver hornet
#

You could just farm Scav Boss + raiders on reserve.

obtuse lintel
#

i am farming pmc's on reserve

#

they go in geared then get one tapped by a hunter it's sad

#

but i respect it

opal gust
#

going dome with a remington 700

#

boutta dick on some nerds with m61

blissful rain
#

Do tracers add more flash to the gun when firing

median zodiac
#

do offline raids give you xp?

blissful rain
#

No xp

#

It will say how much xp you would have gotten but you won’t actually get it

median zodiac
#

okay was confused when i ended that offline raid

bold kernel
#

@opal gust they dont add flash, only thing you would see is the tracer after you fired from your scope

How do I give skier my body armor?

timber dock
#

Like for a task?

late fulcrum
#

Yeah

timber dock
#

Task tab when interacting with him, should have a 'hand in' option for the objective for that task.

late fulcrum
#

“Task tab”?

timber dock
#

Click "Dealers" at the bottom, click Skier, click the 'tasks' tab at the top?

#

Same spot you accept and turn in quests normally.

#

Then you can click the related task and there'll likely be a 'turn in' button next to the objective.

late fulcrum
#

From here I don’t see a turn in button

timber dock

Oh, you need specific body armor.

Means you don't have any.

limber widget
#

With me wanting to buy my friend standard edition (it says it can be launched anywhere Europe selected) is this within euro itself?

#

or anywhere like it says

silent temple
#

@limber widget From the website:

"WARNING! Purchases are locked to the specific geographic region the purchase was made from. The game can only be launched if your current region is the same where the purchase was made. The only exception is Europe — purchases made in this region will be available to launch anywhere around the world. Your current region is: Europe."

languid flare
#

I wonder why this is...
Also: Europe, wooo! 😄

vernal anchor
#

If you have the europe version you should be able to launch from anywhere

silent temple
#

I think it's probably more expensive than other regions?

vernal anchor
#

A little bit

proper apex
#

!wiki GreenBat

broken quailBOT
torn ledge
#

The main reason Europe is able to launch anywhere is because of EU laws that require digital property to be unrestricted.

#

At least, that's my assumption based on prior experience.

languid flare
#

Eu wins once again

rough hare
#

is there a noticeable difference when you have 2 graphics cards in the farm compared to one?

i guess i cant complete the tasks as a scav?

@little compass You can collect found in raid items but directly finding task specific kills or items are PMC only.

silent temple
#

i guess i cant complete the tasks as a scav?
@little compass You can collect items like wires, salewas and such.. But kills + quest items can't be done

Yeah

if you disconnect does thing in your pouch dissappear or do they stay

@slim maple 2 months ago? ish

#

any tips to get better as a beginner

vale stream
#

YES I FINALLY GOT IY

#

FFS

#

it feels so godamn good

slim maple
#

Tips are: Do not be dissuaded by the mentality of "rat." It is a valid playstyle that can allow you to overpower your enemies. Especially an uncoordinated team.

#

Chad playstyles are more likely to get you killed if you don't know how to play the game.

#

Alternate between both. Know when to fight and to run.

vale stream
#

the goblin playstyle is better

#

grab everything and run

#

until you can run decent kits and play like a rat

slim maple
#

lol that's also a valid playstyle. I'm doing that at the moment to try and get beta container

vale stream
#

same

#

i could get it but my goal is to get to 10 million before it lol

slim maple
#

although at this point I'm liking how the game plays so I'm thinking of buying eod or just waiting to see how the grenade launchers change the game

vale stream
#

you should wait until the next wipe

#

you have to restart your account to get the eod

#

so youll lose everything on this wipe

slim maple
#

ah I see I thought it carries over unfortunate

vale stream
#

im planning on buying it next wipe

#

hopefully durin a sale lol

silent temple
#

the goblin playstyle is better
@vale stream Get smacked up at the alkharid gate?

#

you have to restart your account to get the eod
@vale stream this is false

vale stream
#

sneak around the mines and steal all the adventurers loot

#

is it?

#

oh sorry

silent temple
#

You get your extras via system messenger

vale stream
#

thats what i was told

#

oh then its better

silent temple
#

Yeah it would be dumb if you lost stuff

vale stream
#

its what I read

#

but maybe the post was old ig

#

sorry bout that

#

oh jeez

#

having the safehouse fully upgraded is the best feeling so far

You dont have to reset your account to get EOD i have done it myself you just get the extra gear put into your new extended stash

Question: Guy I played with said you shouldn't dump/hide dead player's gear in the water (ex. Wood's lake, Shoreline ocean) because you don't get it back from insurance. Said that BSG patch this out because it would be too easy for players to hide dead guy's gear. Soooo, should I continue dumping dead teammate's gear into the water or not?

if you say 3 then i say 4 (5-7 and srimp are good for sure, g18c and aps are kinda ok)

#

Fffuuuu, why must I be so bad at this game. But I also can't stop playing. Level 9 and still working on the first couple tasks.

#

"server connection lost" after dissalowed program 17

#

tried stopping virtualisatoin stuff and autohotkey

#

still getting disconnected

#

is this the new meta?

#

i think it might be hyperv

chrome ibex
#

Do you have nvidia filters on

little compass
#

not sure what that is, but right now ive just rebooted after uninstalling hyperv cos thats the lsat big change i made

#

connection lost again

#

also installed virtualbox recently

#

are you talking about post filters in the tarkov settings?

#

got rid of virtualbox

#

still same

#

i give up

silver hornet
#

@lapis mauve @wise stream 5-7, SR1MP, and the G18

lapis mauve
#

aps is debatably better than g18 since its more controllable (and cheaper, and has a suppressed version)

craggy sage
#

what do i do when i finish a scav run and my stash is full

#

ive already put bags in bags

#

cant sell post raid right

#

else you lose everything you brought out

maiden perch
#

@craggy sage correct- make sure your PMC is loaded before going ona scav run and plan for success -- They are adding a 'scav table' to the game in the future.

craggy sage
#

that's a good point I could have loaded my PMC up properly first

maiden perch
#

Do we have an answer with proof on how insurance works with Scavs picking up player weapons yet?

shut pelican
#

what is a scav table?

slender prawn
#

who wanna help me with peace keepers quests

raven gazelle
#

The scav table is gonna be a place where u can store all ur scav gear and sell what u want before u put it in ur inventory

#

@shut pelican

hot zenith
#

how do you change how to reload

#

like loading the mag for a sniper instead of replacing a mag

south sun
#

hold reload and mouse wheel, only works for weapons that can be loaded from the top

Last night I was playing with some guys in here (I'm pretty new) and 3 of the 4 others were pretty decently geared. I died along with one of the "geared players" (High level armor). This other guy that was lower geared around level 20 or so just straight picked up all of our shit that he could and bounced. Do we report those type of people ro server admins or? probably took me for about 100k and I'm level 12. Took the other guy that was geared for a lot more.

uncut magnet
#

Until I understand weapon modding more should I just sell all the attachments I get?

zealous tendon
#

To understand weapon modding you should unlock the workbench level 1 in your hideout

uncut magnet
#

Im very new and rarely survive raids

zealous tendon
#

Then you can use weapon presets to see what goes where

uncut magnet
#

Oh ok

#

Os it worth just keeping a bunch of random attachments though

zealous tendon
#

not really no

#

what level are you?

uncut magnet
#

Idk like 4 or something

zealous tendon
#

Then just sell them

uncut magnet
#

Just keep getting rekt lol

#

Ok ty

How long you been playing for overall?

inner flicker

whats a good wayto do freind fromthe west part 1?

zealous tendon
#

@inner flicker and @uncut magnet join me in 3 man squad #10

noble hollow
#

just factory?

zealous tendon
#

Any map really

#

if anything factory is harder

#

You want a map that spawns more PMCs than 4 other people

#

customs and interchange I'd say personally

dreamy salmon
#

why

zealous tendon
#

Because you need PMC kills, and more PMCs spawn on customs and interchange

dreamy salmon
#

ah ok

uncut magnet
#

@zealous tendon I'd love to but unfortunately I work for another 3.5 hours

zealous tendon
#

Sweet as man

dreamy salmon
#

if i join someone thats on another server does the game lag

#

i am currently on oce

zealous tendon
#

You Aus?

dreamy salmon
#

yes

zealous tendon
#

you cant play with anyone other than AUS/NZ

#

Your ping is too high to other countries

dreamy salmon
#

really that sucks

zealous tendon
#

I am NZ/AU

#

but I am playing with Americans atm

dreamy salmon
#

u live in the usa then

zealous tendon
#

no

#

I am NZ

dreamy salmon
#

u just told me it wont work

zealous tendon
#

for you

#

because your AU

#

Your internet is much worse than NZ

dreamy salmon
#

lol

zealous tendon
#

I get 120 ping to the US

dreamy salmon
#

had no idea

zealous tendon
#

you get like 200+

dreamy salmon
#

yup lol 220+

uncut magnet
#

@zealous tendon if ur somehow still gaming when I'm off that would be awesome to join u if not I appreciate the offer

zealous tendon

blazing heron
#

i have one question. when you are going to extraction point and its always on the other side of the map and i usually run at the wall for cover from right or left side or im running from bush to bush is this good tactic or is there better way to extraction point

#

anyone know where is the best location for bitcoins

south sun
#

safes/marked circles

#

it's kinda tricky to know where the best direction is

#

usually just sticking to the shortest path works well if its well covered

#

you'd usually stick to the walls if you're new to the map since its hard to make heads or tails of where you are

blazing heron
#

can you find tetriz on any other map than interchange

burnt breach
#

reserve

#

shoreline

silent temple
#

Anywhere with a tech spawn isnt it?

burnt breach

pretty much

i have one question. when you are going to extraction point and its always on the other side of the map and i usually run at the wall for cover from right or left side or im running from bush to bush is this good tactic or is there better way to extraction point
@blazing heron I wanna draw up a woods run I did yesterday with someone

#

Ideally we would have carried on forward and round the edge of the map but with 4 people fighting and the other guy only having a pistol we made the executive decision to run away and go the short-but-risky route

tiny stag
#

hey all, since BTC is disabled in the flea market. what's the best use of them atm?

silent temple
#

Each one is a solid 116k to therapist

#

Rest of the barters found here

mint thistle
#

what should i be putting in my alpha container? ive been putting meds in it but dont know if there is a better use

silent temple
#

what should i be putting in my alpha container? ive been putting meds in it but dont know if there is a better use
@mint thistle meds in when you enter the raid, and then swap out as you find other stuff.. Either useful or valuable

mint thistle
#

so like a key or somn?

silent temple
#

Keys are good, usually sell for a few thousand at the least

mint thistle
#

ok, thanks. i didnt even think about putting expensive stuff in it. (im kinda dumb)

silent temple
south sun
#

put things you need for your hideout too, since they're not required to be found in raid

silent temple
#

will give you a very quick price-per-slot on the flea of an item

#

which could be completely different to the vendor value (should you die)

zealous tendon
#

Thats actually up to date @silent temple

#

@dreamy salmon You playing still?

silent temple
#

That's fair I've seen people recommend it.. such shit data

zealous tendon
#

Yeah but Loot gob lin is pre wipe info

#

So its actually useless

analog fulcrum
#

well, IDK if market prices are important when looking what to put inside his secure container, considering that everything in the container will loose FIR status upon death and thus cant be sold on the flea

#

imo need to either know vendor price or what u can use the item for yourself, like a barter

silent temple
#

keys are a good shout though.. Either they have a reasonable value to therapist, or they can be kept and used if theyre very valuable

elder knot
#

How can I loot Pestily?

silent temple
#

Kill him first, then press F on body

fast egret
#

Can you store guns and attachment also can you put bags and vests in a lucky scav box

silent temple
#

Store guns and attachments where? and bags/vests cant go in scav junkbox

analog fulcrum
#

@fast egret none of those things u mentioned can be stored in scav junkbox

dreamy salmon
#

sorry man @zealous tendon was off playing rust now

elder knot
#

Do I need Tarkov Prime to loot Pestily?

fast egret
#

ok thanks

proper apex
#

is it still meta to disassemble weapons and sell it after?

left zenith
#

nope

#

since mechanic is the only dealer

#

jaeger for shotguns and snipers though

proper apex
#

so no profit to disassemble now?

silent temple
#

Nah

proper apex
#

marked keys are really cheap on flea wtf

#

I thought their loot is much more valuable

wise stream
#

they got nerfed iirc

silent temple
#

If you like Holodilnicks then go for it

analog fulcrum
#

yeah but I believe their value on flea always goes down to therapist sale value eventually annyway, since they drop kinda often

blazing heron
#

what is the fastest way to level up so i can use flea market

silent temple
#

Quests

storm canyon
#

would like help with some quests and raids

cerulean seal
#

question

wise stream
#

Anyone wanna run some raids so I can actually make a little bit of money?

#

i try to scav and I just get domed by pscavs

i try to pmc and that ends horribly

whats the time on customs i hav to wait till to extract?

arctic kraken
#

I'm stuck on tires in reserve, is there tricks to get out of this ?

stone moss
#

I would alt+f4 and relaunch and reconnect and see if it gets you out.

#

TStreetz, what region are you?

arctic kraken
#

ok i'll try thank you

stone moss
#

When the sherpa tells you to apply for a sherpa.

blazing wigeon
#

well if you go through the hoops they get a free gear set so it is a lot more easy of an experience for them @stone moss

stone moss
#

@blazing wigeon Out of curiosity, what do they get?

blazing wigeon
#

saves me the hassle hahaha cheers Mako

vernal anchor
#

It's not great, and that's pretty much on purpose

stone moss
#

Well, they have to learn how to use things they have access to... Don't really see an issue with that gear tbh.

vernal anchor
#

If it was too good then people would abuse it

languid flare
#

USEC getting an AVS, BEAR only a Blackrock
Amazing

stone moss
#

Well that too, but you would be telling new guys that the stuff they have is worthless and won't get them anywhere otherwise

#

@languid flare Because USEC is where it's at.

blazing wigeon
#

@languid flare the rigs changed over time the AVS became armoured later in development

languid flare
#

I know. Its still funny

stone moss
#

They should kinda update it then...

blazing wigeon
#

probably, it's not like we wouldn't bring them armour anyway usually

blazing heron
#

is there any resource which item is cheap and which is expensive cuz every time i loot to many thing an ddont know which to keep

raven gazelle
#

u kinda just need to learn that

stone moss
#

Some of that comes from experience but supposedly there is a website you can check item prices on or something.

blazing heron
#

ok thnx

twilit chasm
#

Anyone know why map I should be playing as a level 3. I’ve lost most of the stuff the game gave me at factory and I tried customs but it’s fackin large

pure talon
#

crossfire don't play as a PMC yet, do scav runs and play offline mode with PvE turned on and "tag and cursed" selected to practice aim and weapon handling against bots

#

this will help you find extraction points on maps

#

and customs is where usually new players start, it's not that huge

#

labs requires a 200k investment every raid for a single use key card, reserve is demanding as well

#

woods will get you uninstall the game after few days from being sniped out of nowhere

twilit chasm
#

ay thanks

pure talon
#

shoreline can be fun, but it's huge

#

so that leaves you with customs and interchange

#

i've chose customs as my main map when i was in your shoes and it fine choice, but interchange is much better map to farm, money wise

twilit chasm
#

is it normal for extraction points to be like on the opposite side of the map so like crossroads and trailer park if you spawn admin becuase the one time i did it that happened and i got loot and kills but died trying to get over there

pure talon
#

yes, intentional

languid flare
#

You always spawn opposite of your extracts

pure talon
#

maps have chokepoints and it's expected for players to meet somewhere in the middle

stone moss
#

Honestly Crossfire its going to be very subjective what maps are good to run. Change, not necessarily true in reserve.

languid flare
#

Well, Reserve has always all open, but its still (somewhat) true for Scavs

stone moss
#

Honestly crossfire, run your scavs when you get a chance. Maybe do some offline runs because PMC and Scav do not always have the same extracts and you want to learn both mode's extracts.

twilit chasm
#

got it alright. So i guess i just gotta figure out the maps well which makes sense.

stone moss
#

Customs is where your beginner quests are so it is good to learn and IMO reserve isn't a bad beginner map (if your computer can run it well enough.) I would suggest looking up a map on google to help you out in raid.

pure talon
#

also the game makes a distinction between surviving a raid and a run through, if you spent under 10 minutes OR had less than 800 (I could be wrong on this number) XP when you left the map it will be called "run through". You'll get half the XP and items you found won't have "found in raid" tag.

languid flare
#

(600, after survive bonus XP)

stone moss
#

Pretty sure it is 600 exp but if you kill someone and loot it you get enough.

#

New guy prob isn't going to get run-through too often tbh lol Also that mechanic does not work like that for scavs

pure talon
#

Yeap, thanks for correction. Point is that the extraction points being far away from spawn points are intentional and game punishes you for rushing towards exit.

stone moss
#

Sometimes it is worth getting out early depending on what you are doing. But if you want exp you need to survive first and foremost. If you kill some things and maybe loot a bit, you get more exp if you survive due to the multiplier you get for surviving.

#

I would not worry too much about levels until you get customs and one other map down though.

stone moss
#

You can also seek the help of an experienced player that can join you in raid and teach you as well. There are a few of those around, but it is a pretty toxic comm...

Plz no

#

The wall

bold kernel
#

the wall indeed

stone moss
#

Yeah, you can go to sherpa and go through trying to register and wait for a sherpa if you want. There are also other players that volunteer to help. It is a little better than this server for help IMO

twilit chasm
#

i mean i think i can do on my own for now, they cant help me learn the maps, itss easier for me to just get that on my own imo. Thought that was more for if you lost everything

stone moss
#

If you lose everything you can do scav runs and if you make it out you get to keep everything from that raid.

opaque garnet
#

Ffs, theres always a sweaty in a corner. I think I've died close to 10-15 times in a row now + scav runs. Getting to lvl 10 a few hundred exp at a time is such a fucking grind.

stone moss
#

I would try not to be over reliant on scav though because you want to level your PMC to advance in the game.

twilit chasm
#

alright thanks for tips guys

stone moss
#

np

#

It can be rough, Dude.

opaque garnet
#

I'm getting worse the more I play...

stone moss
#

Sometimes you gotta just walk away and come back 15 minutes later

#

If you let it rattle you, it will make you worse

#

I would assume there is a guy in every corner though

opaque garnet
#

I don't really get mad any more, I just feel shitty. Tired of being nothing more than a target. Can't kill anything, even if i surprise them from behind.

bold kernel
#

there is a guy in every corner though

#

i got a solution

opaque garnet
#

Try to hide, sneak, crawl in bushes and behind walls but it doesn't matter

bold kernel
#

get a hunter, a pso sight and camp the shit out of sewer manhole

#

on dome

#

well not sewer manhole just the area around it

opaque garnet
#

Can't get anything cuz im not 10

bold kernel
#

sewer manhole got some good cover but u can camp the knights and heli

#

hunters spawn on scavs and pso isnt rare either

stone moss
#

Ill be honest, being tactical/slow doesn't usually serve you well in this game. If you move fast you can get the jump on someone.

#

The only exception is camping

bold kernel
#

wait prap ll1 got pso

opaque garnet
#

You guys dont to seem to understand, doesn't matter what I have if some dude is rocking some crazy armor ive never seen, I can't pen anything. Once put 22 rounds into a dude and he survived and shot me once

stone moss
#

They would have to find a hunter...

opaque garnet
#

And I have some scopes but they don't go on any guns

#

Again, doesn't matter, I don't take them cuz I'll just die and lose them

stone moss
#

Trust me, I understand. I play with newbie gear all the time

#

one sec

twilit chasm
#

wait what does the "taged and curse" thing do

stone moss
#

eff your day up

#

The scavs detect you easier and are aggrieve toward you

#

Dude, Your starter ammo besides the mosin ammo will not pen a lot of armors.

#

You are better off shooting at the head/face.

bold kernel
#

reserve has alot of 7.39, BS and BT spawns

#

pretty high pen ammo

pure talon
#

it's a mechanic to prevent people from hatchet runs (i.e. going in naked to minimize potential loss and maximizing profit) - if you spawn without gear and main weapon the scavs will auto aggro you within 100m

stone moss
#

its a mechanic to prevent you from running with no armor

#

You can take a pistol and you will still be tagged

bold kernel
#

also SNB which pens most good armor

stone moss
#

but takes two shots

#

better off with lps gzh

bold kernel
#

lps 2 shots aswell if the guy has any kind of armor

#

but aTLEAST SNB PENS

opaque garnet
#

Except when they have a helmet and faceshield. Shot a guy twice, once in the face and a second time in the leg with mosin. he didn't die

bold kernel
#

shit caps

stone moss
#

But you can at least 1 shot lower tier armor

pure talon
bold kernel
#

not rly

stone moss
#

having to do 2 shots for every enemy with a bolt action.... meh

opaque garnet
#

Sure doesn't seem like it

bold kernel
#

armor still absorbs a couple dmg

stone moss
#

idk, i generally 1 tap with it

#

its only 5 damage below 7n1

#

and you can get it from prapor. I rather use SMB with a semi auto or if I am going Headshot only... but thats my preference I suppose.

#

Either way, for the most part, aim for their head/face, Dude.

#

Usually not protected or protected as well as the torso

bold kernel
#

5 dmg is a big difference if armor can just absorb a couple dmg and u wont get a 1tap

opaque garnet
#

Hell, the other day my hunter decided it was using spitballs for ammo. Musta but a dozen bullets into an unarmored scav and he just didn't die

stone moss
#

Then it won't matter if he farms SMB or gets lps lol

opaque garnet
#

This game is brutal to new players, just the levelling and tasks alone

stone moss
#

He can at least 1 tap low armor with the lps is all I am saying.

#

Yeah, it has a steep learning curb and quite difficult for new guys

#

Just keep at it

bold kernel
#

snb just has more pen and u find it all over the place

stone moss
#

But if you get good at aiming, you can take something like the PM and drop a well geared player with a well-placed face shot.

#

True enough. The pen is top notch

bold kernel
#

offline is decent for practising aim aswell

stone moss
#

absolutely

#

but learn customs via scav and offline raid and learn one other ma (imo reserve is a good second). Then go out from there.

opaque garnet
#

I like Inter, reserve is prob 3rd with customs being far and above my best map (in terms of knowing where everything is). The only issue with offline is they aren't anywhere close to the difficulty of real players.

stone moss
#

You can crank up the ai dificulty

#

The ai has come a long way

opaque garnet
#

So as online is the easiest difficulty?

stone moss
#

As online makes them how they would be in game

#

They start easy and gradually get harder through the raid

#

cranking it up makes the scavs more accurate and stuff

opaque garnet
#

Oh jesus, well then I am absolute garbage lol

#

I still die in as online

stone moss
#

You gotta start somewhere

opaque garnet
#

so i can only imagine how quick id die in hard

stone moss
#

oh a word of advice

#

dont strafe as you shoot

#

stand still and actually aim

#

moving will really throw your aim off unless you are used to how your gun shoots while strafing

#

I kill geared dudes with crap equipment a lot of times because they try to spray me while moving when I take the time and a couple bullets to line one up on their noggin

twilit chasm
#

i just got like 8 kills on scavs then i was out of my 3 clips and it wouldnt let me switch to my pistol* so i died, turns out if you accidently click caps lock you cant press "1" to get to your psitol

stone moss
#

caps lock only affects walk speed

#

Is your shift key stuck or something?

rain bough
#

My loot route for Interchange is pretty much IDEA PC room, Goshan Shelves, Oli PC and the back of OLI, and then sometimes Emercom medical. Is there anything I should add or change? I've been struggling to get the 3.5mil for Stash 2 and I'm level 33

rain oasis
#

Question. For PMC kills, can you just queue in with someone and kill them?

stone moss
#

No you cannot, logic

#

Team kills do not count toward quests.

trim pelican
#

do you like my loadout

pure talon
#

looks pretty random to me

pure talon
#

why do you need that pistol mag for?

rain harness
#

do you like the AK i built

trim pelican
#

lucky pistol mag

#

idk its just there

rain harness
#

What do you think of my AK

trim pelican
#

bad

rain harness
#

How do i improve it

trim pelican
#

fortis shift

rain harness
#

What is that

pure talon
#

my 2c - I recon you're still low level char, maybe with access to flea market but with vendors still being locked for you

rain harness
#

i lost all my money making it i bought the parts from fence

#

i have 41 k

pure talon
#

It's very hard to build a reliable AK of flea market for reasonable price, and ammo is pretty expensive so I would rather run what I have without worrying about it too much or stick to single fire and use sks and adar, both solid weapons.

rain harness
#

my life savings

trim pelican
#

i am on smurf quest

pure talon
#

Once you have access to flea market you can buy RPK for 50k which out of the box will have stats comparable to 200k+ AK

rain harness
#

i cant afford rpk

trim pelican
#

do scav runs

#

and loot things and more

pure talon
#

keep in mind that your gun is the cheaper part of the equation, you have to pay for ammo as well

rain harness
#

is the ak a bad gun i shot a guy with the pubg level 3 helmet thing like 80 times

#

it did not do good

#

it said "hit count 7 " and damage absorbed by armor like a lot

pure talon
#

it's not about the gun, it's about the ammo

rain harness
#

is ps good

pure talon
#

guns doesn't do damage, ammo does

#

it's not

#

you build your gun so your ammo lands on target

#

that's all

#

"better" weapon will let you mod it further or allow you to fire better calibers

rain harness

by having 10 rounds in mag you will be forced to aim your shots well

#

but you won't break the bank on good ammo

rain harness
#

that also uses ps

#

and you said ps is bad ammo

pure talon
#

no, it uses same caliber

#

use bp

trim pelican

it's protection class

trim pelican

rain harness

you are telling me you can level up your helmet in real lfie

#

life

pure talon
#

if you buy a body armor in real life it's certified for a certain level of protection

bold kernel
#

up to level 3a irl right

trim pelican
#

is m995 really slightly better than ap sx, a smg caliber

bold kernel
#

invest in m995

pure talon
#

also check this video it will help you understand the basic mechanics of the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLs8dhonuCA

4.6x30mm recently got a buff & people have been asking me how the new values stack up. In this video I breakdown the changes to the ammo & how it performs against all levels of armour!
I stream 5 days a week on twitch at https://twitch.tv/vox_e

do you wanna play

trim pelican
#

u cant fool me thats a real person not a bear

pure talon
#

if you just jump to 460s timestamp it states that with shitty ammo it takes 24 hits to kill a player with a level 5 body armor, while using the ammo with good penetration it only takes 4.

#

meaning that if you run with shitty ammo it's entirely possible that you empty your clip at point blank range and you won't kill your opponent

#

that's how important the ammo is in this game

@pure talon wna play

@pastel flume you don't get insurance through labs

pastel flume
#

@hot zenith okay, thanks, our group was arguing about it.

hot zenith

because scavs can't go there, they can't pick up your insurance

because scavs can't go there, they can't pick up your insurance

#

i bought the game a week ago and was wondering if someone with access to the flea market could buy 2 items for me and trade inside a raid together

#

im doing the gunsmiths first quest for xp and stuff and i need the plastic pistol grip for MP-133/153 and also the Custom plastic mp-133 forestock with mounts

#

i dont think they cost too much its just so hard to get them without the market

languid flare
#

The stock thingy you can barter from mechanic for 2 HDDs

normal wraith
#

where can i get those?

raven gazelle
#

COMPUTERS

languid flare
#

Computers, mostly

normal wraith
#

ok cool

#

what about the grip

languid flare
#

And the pistol grip can be found somewhat common on scav shotguns

#

Its not too rare

normal wraith
#

yeah ive been doing scav runs all day and checking all the scavs i find and none have spawned with them

languid flare
#

Well, if you find noone who can buy it for you (which would be via flea for them as well..), you gotta keep trying.

normal wraith
#

and the custon plastic forestock is 50k but 2 hdds are 20k so i could get them cheaper like that

blazing heron
#

is this my connection or why do i always lost connection

burnt breach
#

are u playing with friends that are far away?

#

cause there is a ping limit in tarkov

languid flare
#

Lost connection is not because of ping
Ping kicks are detailed as such
(Something about 'because of bad connection quality)

blazing heron
#

im solo

#

lost 2 raid full geared and lost eveerything

split prism
#

where can i find more scavs to loot ? in customs

burnt breach
#

pretty much everywhere except the woods

blazing heron
#

play as scav and just line up 3 ai scavs and kill them

bold kernel
#

@split prism i dont recomend scaving into customs, there isnt that much loot there other than the scavs. id say you should scav into either interchange or reserves. theres more loot there and you can learn the maps as you go

blazing heron
#

im gonna cry i got disconnected 3 times and lost 3 fully geard classes crybear

what servers do you have selected @blazing heron

anyone wanna help me in tarkov?

dusky shell
#

do you loose skill xp upon death? my mag drills keep loosing points every time i die

#

i got it on lvl 2 with 16.3 when i started this raid, got killed and now its on 13,6

normal wraith
#

scav name im fairly sure

slim maple
#

scav name

tender mortar
#

its the name of the scav

slim maple
#

To know if a scav was a player you can see "pouch" in their inventory

tender mortar
#

not 100 percent. you can also see if they have a scabbard you cant take, if they do they are 100 percent a player

chrome ibex
#

@dusky shell From what I cant tell the in game calculation is weird, even if you survive it is different sometimes

river zephyr
#

a mission from therapist requires me to extract from customs, can i do it as a scav?

slim maple
#

All quests must be done as pmc

river zephyr
#

alright thanks 🙂

dusky shell
#

@chrome ibex ye it just reset me back from 19 to 13.5 on mag drills and 4 points lost on strength.. wth..

its a discord server and in the server is all the maps

remote zealot
#

i have 2 mp 133s for prapor but i cant hand them over. do i need to finish killing scavs before i can give him the guns, or is it because i stripped them down?

ornate sapphire
#

@remote zealot its because you stripped them down

raven gazelle
#

click on the trader dont do it through the task bar at the top of ur screen

remote zealot
#

dang, i already sold the essential parts. time to farm fence ig

crystal bramble
#

smarter to sell to Mechanic or Peacekeeper early on?

slender prawn
#

i sold to peacekeepr

last belfry
#

You should sell weapon attachments to skier and the weapon itself to mechanic. Everything else you can sell to therapist except ammunition

golden mortar
#

sell the attachments to mechainic now unless your leveling skeir

gaunt cypress
#

anyone here willing to 1 on 1 with a newbie

unreal imp
#

You can just sell weapons straight to mechanic nowadays

#

do the salewa's for the first therapist task need to be found in raid? or is it possible to get them from someone and use them to complete the quest

unreal imp
#

Needs to be found in raid

static turret
#

ok

#

thanks

unreal imp
#

Many spawn in the cages in reserve and they can be crafted as well

raven gazelle
#

no they dont??

#

they dont need to be found in raid

unreal imp
#

Dont they

#

I remember wrong then

static turret
#

thats ok

#

thanks for the answer

raven gazelle
#

np

ocean fable
#

the salewas and the first gas analyzer do not have to be found in raid, however the next 2 gas analyzers have to

rough hare
#

I hate how rare gas analyzers seemed to me at first, now I find them more than I want

modest wind
#

why do i have 8 prapor traders wtf is this

strong barn
#

Put your glasses back on 🤣

rough hare
#

@modest wind I don't understand, you seem upset

modest wind
#

ok lol

gaunt cypress
#

duo?

rough hare
#

is there anything I could put on here to make the recoil better?

spice otter
#

U can put a polymer stock instead of a wooden one.

rough hare
#

ooh ok

#

what is like a low recoil for an ak?

hot zenith
#

depends on how much you are willing to spend

rough hare
#

just curious what vertical recoil for an ak is considered low

raven gazelle
#

test it

hot zenith
#

for a budget build, an AK under 75 vertical is pretty decent

raven gazelle
#

see what ur able to handle

slim maple
#

lowest recoil I can get an ak-74m to is 58 with 100k in total

rough hare
#

hmm ,ok. you guys reckon that this thing is a decent weapon for killing reshaly

ocean fable
#

@rough hare the stock isnt the greatest. if you replace it with a Zhuhov-S it will most likely be below 60

hot zenith
#

nades lol

#

I killed Reshala and 4 of goons with just nades alone

ocean fable
#

@rough hare for AI it should be more than enough. You will be able to full auto on close ranges but mid to long range I recommend tapping

rough hare
#

I don't really use nades, when I have them I forget that I have them

#

I could bring a couple of rgds I guess

raven gazelle
#

u dont need a good gun to kill a boss u just need to be smart

ocean fable
#

however you might require a good gun to get to the boss alive xD

rough hare
#

a good gun certainly helps tho xD

#

more likely to kill a boss with an ak than a tt pistol

raven gazelle
#

yes but my point is u dont need a good ak and u dont need to spend a ton of money

ocean fable
#

like NotBatman said its not much of a difference. If you are unlucky and his guards are running altys the tt will fuck you over but AI in this game is completely braindead you can easily do it with a stock sks with ps rounds or a vepr hunter with m80

rough hare
raven gazelle
#

btw theres not much point in taking painkillers and vaseline

ocean fable
#

if you are not going to bring a cms or survkit bring some water and food at least in case somebody blacks your stomach 😄

#

but other than that you are good

rough hare
#

ok, will get a cms xD

raven gazelle
#

lvl r u?

ocean fable
#

tell us how it went

rough hare
#

are FIR cms's used for a jaegar quest?

#

37 @raven gazelle

ocean fable
#

no

raven gazelle
#

is it for a quest u killing reshala?

ocean fable
#

at least I dont think so

rough hare
#

yes @raven gazelle

raven gazelle
#

u need 2 fir cms

rough hare
#

I will check incase, onesec

#

ah

#

I have one FIr

ocean fable
#

oh yeah right... jaeger wants it

rough hare
#

is that quest far in?

ocean fable
#

jaegers quests are a little weird, there is a bunch of different questlines so to speak 😄 so it depends but you could just check what quest leads to it on the wiki and then backtrack until you find one that you have if you know what I mean

rough hare
#

oh ok, I just did that and its one of the next ones for me :p

#

time to start making that defib

ocean fable
#

I just checked it comes after the quest where you gotta clap some peeps with headshots while suffering from tremor

rough hare
#

yeah, I need one more tremor kill

ocean fable
#

easiest way to sustain a tremor is having a fracture 😄 preferable in the arm so you can run without taking damage and if you are on painkillers all the time you dont notice it

#

just make sure not to heal it next time you get one and keep it until you get that kill

rough hare
#

my arm never seems to get broken, I always check the medical bill screen

#

I just see a little indicator showing they headshot me D:

#

but I will if i see it

#

thanks btw!

ocean fable
#

no problem at all

#

Am struggling to get money up with Peacekeeper for LL2, what are the best things to sell him?

shut pelican
#

buy m9a3s from him and sell it back

tacit pewter
#

what would be the best things to buy/sell from Jaeger to get to LL2?

rough hare
#

I would just buy the cheap antique axes from flea and sell them to him

ocean fable
#

sell all shotguns and knifes to him you can get

#

thats smart Kairon22, probbably a good idea

rough hare
#

you can get them for like 53k upwards normally, and selling each one to him is just above 50k

tacit pewter
#

oh thanks, that's good to know. Now I just need 50k lol

ocean fable
#

if you are below 50k and have nothing to sell its probbably time to spam scavs 😄

rough hare
#

@ocean fable i'm going to wait until tomorrow to do the reshala raid, might try team up with some fellow Europeans, will let you know how it went if I remember to! xD

ocean fable
#

@rough hare team up with me I am a fellow european

rough hare
#

do you mean tomorrow or today? 😄

#

same thing i guess
