Whats a good method to practice PVP abilites?

bold kernel
#

shoot people

slim maple
#

you can go in with a pistol and try to jump on some people in reserve

#

just aim for the legs is all

#

or find a npc and take his gear

bold kernel
#

i just play scav, every chance i get and i dont back out, i play scav to literally chase down pmcs

#

dont be afraid to engage thats how you learn

#

just try to out smart them

slim maple
#

remember to take a look at your surroundings too sometimes there's a good place to escape and figure out what the next plan is

#

I watched a guy jump out of a building window in reserve while his enemies fought each other. After they were done, he shot the last guy who was too busy looting, took all his gear and left.

bold kernel
#

i creeped up on a guy on reserve who was busy looting and capped him and took all the loot

arctic kraken
#

Is it possible in the white horse building on reserve to jump from the second floor to the staircase ?

bold kernel
#

could anyone help with prapor postman pat

raven gazelle
#

postman pat postman pat and his black and white cat

tepid citrus
#

I just got the game running on good FPS had quite a bit of practice on horrible performance. Anybody want to do some practice raids?

bold kernel
#

I hate factory

#

with a passion

zealous tendon
#

@bold kernel Just go into LFG once you have the package and make a 5 man group

bold kernel
#

I havent got the package I die to fast in factory πŸ˜„

celest condor
#

need to get package in customs to do the factory part

bold kernel
#

im on the one where I gotta get the letter from the scav

#

in the green chem room

#

I think its called

celest condor
#

postman pat.

#

sounds like

zealous tendon
#

Sorry my bad, confused myself haha

bold kernel
#

yeah thats what I said πŸ˜„

#

I have managed to break my game also lmao

celest condor
#

best way for factory tasks is to get a 5 man. Factory has a 5 man limit now so you own the whoel raid. Just your team vs scavs

zealous tendon
#

When I think factory quests I can only remember the PTSD quest delivery from the past

bold kernel
#

when I load my game it goes to the menu

#

but has no options

zealous tendon
#

Did you launch it from launcher or EXE?

#

you cant launch it from the EXE

#

only launcher

celest condor
bold kernel
#

oh fawk

zealous tendon
#

If you are trying to add it to steam/making a shortcut make it to the launcher

bold kernel
#

where csn I find anew one πŸ˜„

zealous tendon
#

just click install from the tarkov website again

#

and it will redownload the launcher

bold kernel
#

found one :d

#

im trya 144

#

cus it looks kinda choppy

wicked anvil
#

I just got team killed by Joranimoe, he also has no game sense and if you call him out he team kills you. Heres screenshot to prove

celest condor
#

Imagine that, new players that are not very good. This is certainly the place to do things like this.

#

This is also far from being proof of an intentional team kill.

wicked anvil
#

Your right should of just recorded my gameplays

wide jackal
#

The 203 key is used on what map?

bold kernel
#

customs

delicate wren
#

@wicked anvil ive heard some horror stories about people TKing and stuff. recording your games might be a good idea for your future games. just be cautious, its happened to some of my friends, not a good time

#

also, is intellegence center worth it for my hideout?

wicked anvil
#

@delicate wren Yeah, had like 100k+ of loot

ocean fable
#

damn dude teamkilling a level 9 thats just fucked up

#

are completely certain it was on purpose?

wicked anvil
#

Yeah

celest condor
#

intentional TK for your team mates gear normally is an instant thing in my experience.

#

as in you get killed as soon as you spawn. Pretty rampant if you join a random in the game lobby.

wicked anvil
#

Word

celest condor
#

Even from your description seem you antagonized him as well.

#

if you call him out he team kills you.
@wicked anvil Does not make it right of course. But likely have been handled better in general.

ocean fable
#

not necessarily, I had teammates shoot me in the back while opening the marked room cause there might have been a sick case inside or killing you at the extract so they dont have to carry your loot to the extract yourself πŸ˜„

wicked anvil
#

Its what ever

#

Just know, people will kill you over the littles things

ocean fable
#

I mean honestly if you dont have the emotional stability to receive critism about how you play a video game the internet and online gaming in general just isnt for you

#

its like saying its your fault the school shooter killed everybody because you didnt become friends with him

celest condor
#

@ocean fable Which is why I said normally πŸ™‚ TK for gear found in raid is another, related issue. Also Tks because of lack of communication, or lapse of paying attention. I have also TKd while just screwing around. Typically with my son thinking it is funny to shoot him, so I shoot him back with a much bigger bullet.

#

calling out has different connotation than criticism.

ocean fable
#

yeah I hear you I have done the same but that is with friends. And while an accidental teamkill can always happen killing your teammate you grouped with intentionally on a public discord servers with rules of conduct that prohibit that very behaviour is just a lack of self control and a sign of being a weak minded and small individual even if you he called you a son of whore. Just leave him behind, exit the raid and dont play with said person again. Grieving people in video games because of a difference of opinion is one of the more toxic traits of some humans

celest condor
#

I agree. Just like if you do get TKs in a game, leave their voice chat and stop playing with them. Don't go calling them out again. especially complaining about their lack of skill and game knowledge in a beginner text channel.

ocean fable
#

True, whats done is done it wont change. I feel like Kushturtle added that part to state a reason why he got killed him to add some context but idk. The other guy not having game sense is not one of the mainpoints I took from that post πŸ˜„

@silver void Keep searching; your attention skill will get higher giving you 'a higher percentage for better loot'; you'll get one eventually

i kinda need help with health care privacy part 5.

#

im eu.

stone moss
#

Hmm what EU servers or part of EU? May or may not be able to join you due to ping limits.

bold kernel
#

Eu servers

#

nvm im acutal braindead.

Its all good. Kinda late for you isn't it?

#

hey guys, what is the best use for dog tags? I have a lucky scav case and items case so I'm unsure what to use mine for

slim maple
#

who knows maybe it'll have another use for next update

stone moss
#

I sell mine but there are several barters for them

bold kernel
#

vog-17 or vog-25?

slim maple
#

17 has 2.5 delay with 60 fragments

#

25 has 2 second delay with 40 fragments

bold kernel
#

ye but which one would u prefer.

slim maple
#

I'd honestly go with a vog 17 it might have a bit more delay but it'll black out a leg

#

70 damage

#

I got screwed over by a grenade since someone wanted to chad 2 scavs but he ended up dying

#

they took his gear and threw a nade and blacked out my leg

#

i forgot to use painkillers beforehand so I got screwed

bold kernel
#

aw thats a rip.

#

anyways thank u.

slim maple
#

np

stone moss
#

I would do vog-25 because its just a bomb and will kill them if they are near it. But honestly, both work. The VOG -17 is easier to get, though you can craft the VOG 25-s in the workbench

fierce latch
#

hey anyone want to get in chat with me and help me out with my hideout im not sure what i should be crafting

#

for profits i mean

slim maple
#

It depends on what level you are

#

hideout you need 3 things I think

#

1 is workbench

fierce latch
#

34 with almost fully upgraded hideout i just dont know what to craft

slim maple
#

resting and heating

#

ah I see

fierce latch
#

wanna get in a call real quick?

slim maple
#

Nah I'm too low level. I only like looking at the market. I know nothing about hideouts at the moment.

#

I only know what to get in the beginning

fierce latch
#

ahh i see ill figure it out

slim maple
#

high tier ammo should get you a pretty penny though

#

don't know what is needed to make it since wiki won't tell me

#

nevermind I had to click on the item

rustic lintel
#

Hey I just started playing about an hour ago anyone wanna call and help me out? My computer does take a while to load some maps though

slim maple
#

You need an ssd

#

works wonders on loading times

rustic lintel
#

Do you know how much they cost?

slim maple
#

like 30 dollars on amazon or something

rustic lintel
#

Damn I just checked and a 1 tb is around 130

civic ore
#

you dont need 1 tb ssd

#

get like 256gb or 480

bold kernel
#

yea

#

if you only play tarkov and some steam games

#

256 should be more than enough for windows and tarkov on it

prisma fjord
#

@tiny stag keep them

#

there are a lot of trades for dog tags

#

and some of them are in the 100's

tiny stag
#

which trades you recommend> I have a full dog tag containter

#

I also have the scav case and items case - the big trades

prisma fjord
#

I mean, it depends on what you need, another items case doesnt sound bad imo

#

if you have nothing left to get then yeah, sell them to therapist

#

do you have 2 scavs case?

tiny stag
#

just 1 but I have a thicc case so maybe not needed

#

thanks sir! I will trade to therapist maybe

#

unless do you get FIR if you do the trade?

prisma fjord
#

FIR?

slim maple
#

Found In Raid. A little checkmark near the item.

tiny stag
#

oh also, I need to kill 30 scavs on interchange for a quest. what's a good cheap sub machine gun to run to try do this task?

#

not looking to pvp so will be taking really bad ammo too I think

strong barn
#

@tiny stag Try the Klin with 30 round mags of PBM or PMM for armor pen; or sp8 or sp7 if you want to leg meta people with flesh damage
Its about 20k for the gun and 2k per mag; but it has 1000rpm compared to its cousin the Kedr with 900rpm

tame moth
#

brand new to the game, which map should i stick too until i gain my footing on tarkov

bold kernel
#

customs has most of the early game quests

fervent kraken
#

customs is the best for learning because its linier and easy

#

but

#

theres a lot of pvp

tame moth
#

probably good to get used to heavy pvp in the early run of it though

fervent kraken
#

kinda

#

but the pvp u will get at dorms will be fully geared players most of the time

tame moth
#

gotcha

#

are the beginner chats where newbies play with vets?

fervent kraken
#

to some extent

bold kernel
#

whats the best midtier helmet to buy?

fervent kraken

cause 6b23 armor sucks i guess

waxen cairn
#

does leveling sniper skill differ from level to level? as in needs more points from say 3 to 4 than 6 to 7?

bold kernel
#

yea

hot zenith
#

upgrading to EoD edition doesn't reset my stuff right?

zealous tendon
#

No

#

upgrading to EOD they will send you the missing items in the mail

hot zenith

ocean fable
#

I just failed the guide twice on the last map, first run around I left labs for the end got deleted by a speedhack aimbotter, second time around my game crashed about 90 seconds before the exit and I got killed by a player scav while reconnecting

hallow hornet
#

Some guy shot me and I just demolished him, I found armour called "6B43 Zabralo-Sh 6A" is it any good?

#

If it's not I can just sell it for 179k roubles.

ocean fable
#

its not that I am new but I am wondering if I could get some help anywhere? Does the sherpa hub help with things like that? If anybody is interested I am looking for 2 experienced EU players level 40+ running geared to the teeth with thermals, slick and good helmets to complete the guide. Offering 10 million rubels each as reward upon completion in form of items of your choosing (sicc cases, ledx, keycards ect.) DM me if interested

bold kernel
#

sounds like ur gon kill them lmao

#

@ocean fable guide is easy, i did it duo. just do labs first and just lurk around the edge of the rest of the maps politetanker

#

and if you drop 10 million roubles to different players they will get banned for RWT lmao

#

real woney trading

#

oh shit

grand merlin
#

#

@bold kernel @bold kernel
Its RMT
Real Money Transaction

#

@grand merlin all kind of barter item and 'junk' as the name says

grand merlin
#

can attatchments be put in?

raven gazelle
#

no

languid flare
#

No. That can be put in the items case and weapons one too i believe

desert compass
#

What should I sell to skier and jaeger?

languid flare
#

Whatever you need to get the sell stuff up.
Skier doesnt pay more in anything anymore.
JΓ€ger pays more for sniper and I think shotguns tho

desert compass
#

Thanks

south sun
#

can sell melee weapons to jaeger too

languid flare
#

That too, true

rough hare
#

buying antique hatchets from flea and selling to jaegar is a decent way of doing it

solar goblet
#

hey lads when is the customs update droping?

rough hare
#

could be tomorrow

hollow zealot
#

I thought it was postponeed

rough hare
#

again?

#

it was supposed to be friday

#

but that was postponed to early next week, so probably tomorrow? unless they postponed it again

worthy sun
#

lmao sure

#

I was on factory and I was sitting in a corner for about 5 minutes

#

and suddenly this guy, prefiring, runs around the corner and kills me. I didnt make a single noise in like 2 Minutes

stone moss
#

He may have known you were there, especially if you had been shooting.

#

A lot of people can tell exactly where you are in that map if they have an earpiece and know the map well.

worthy sun
#

its just making me so mad

stone moss
#

Well i am sure people weren't thrilled about getting killed by a dude sitting in a corner either. For all you know you killed a teammate of his and he called out your location.

#

But that's the game

icy vigil
#

im a relatively new player, can someone help me out with my unorganized crammed stash

stone moss
#

For the guns... if you aren't planning on using it... sell it

icy vigil
#

as whole pieces? or separate attachments.

stone moss
#

I also would not bother with anything shotgun

icy vigil
#

really?

#

oh ok

stone moss
#

you need mp133 for quest but other than that trash them to mechanic or something

#

Also... please equip your alpha container

worthy sun
#

Why do you have your container in the stash?

stone moss
#

You do not lose that (or any items inside) if u die.

icy vigil
#

wdym ill lose it

#

oh

worthy sun
#

you can

#

t

#

You will have all items in there if you die and youll keep it

stone moss
#

No the alpha and melee stay after death. nobody can loot them

worthy sun
#

^ And all the items in it

icy vigil
#

so ill keep my loot

#

after i die

#

whatevers in there

stone moss
#

yes

worthy sun
#

Yeah

stone moss
#

Invite me to a call dude

icy vigil
#

good to know

#

not rn

#

i cant talk

stone moss
#

ok

icy vigil
#

sorry

stone moss
#

nah its all good

#

but get rid of shotguns and the 12 guage ammo

icy vigil
#

ok cool

#

so basically, sell guns that im not intending on using and keep the alpha container

stone moss
#

can sell some of the random weapon parts (not magzines)

#

id sell respirator as well

#

keep the suppressors

icy vigil
#

what does respirator even do

stone moss
#

sell goggles and glasses to ragman

#

and helmet

icy vigil
#

is there anything specific in my stash that i should keep or sell

languid flare
#

Dont need more than the base ssh helmet from ragman

worthy sun
#

did you finish the second (i think) therapist quest yet?

#

with the gas analyzer?

stone moss
#

guns you will use, suppressors, some sites and scopes, meds, some food items, ammo for guns you will use and magazines for guns you will use

icy vigil
#

i havent even done any quests

worthy sun
#

do them

stone moss
#

ssh is garbo

worthy sun
#

keep the gas analyzer youll need it for an early therapist quest

languid flare
#

penis (ssh) is best helmet πŸ˜›

icy vigil
#

im getting mixed signals here

stone moss
#

Best helmet if you want to hear the drum right before you die.

icy vigil
#

im presuming ill sell the knives correct?

stone moss
#

I have not been saved by it this wipe. I quit using it

#

you can keep those for barter trades with peacekeeper

languid flare
#

I got saved by it at least 5 times

stone moss
#

the brown handle gets you mp5 and the black handle gets you p226R

worthy sun
#

wait really

stone moss
#

Yes

languid flare
#

Not too worth tho, those barters, not in this state of wipe

worthy sun
#

good to know

icy vigil
#

so basically sell shottys

#

is that it

worthy sun
#

Im selling everything I dont use

stone moss
#

it gets you trade points with the merchant and you can sell the guns if you don't want to use them...

#

If you are a newbie and need a gun its an easy "free" gun to get

icy vigil
#

mechanic for guns
ragman for clothing shit
therapist for medical shit

#

to sell to

stone moss
#

But yea, barters count toward amount traded with a merchant

icy vigil
#

right?

stone moss
#

Soooo depends what you are doing

#

IMO

icy vigil
#

how about pistols

#

or i should say what about pistols

stone moss
#

TheRapist will pay the most for anything she will buy which is like random jank. Mechanic gives most for guns... however, if you want trades with prapor or peacekeeper or w/e to put toward progress leveling those merchants. Then you may not want to always sell to mechanic

icy vigil
#

ok thank you all

stone moss
#

Most guns are fine in this game. Ammo matters, but your aim matters more in most cases. I can take a PM like you start with and kill a dude that is decked out with a well placed headshot

icy vigil
#

still dont get wtf TAPE and LIGHT BULBS are for

stone moss
#

Not everyone has a face cover on and even if they do you can kinda blind them and get out of there.

worthy sun
#

Some guy tanked two glock 17 shots in the head a few hours ago

#

And 9 other rounds

#

idk if head or not though

stone moss
#

A face shield can protect people and the helmet can block/deflect shots.

vernal anchor
#

@icy vigil If you aren't sure what an item is for, it's probably a barter trade or hideout

stone moss
#

But if they do have a face shield each shot leaves a nice crack in it so it hinders their ability to see

#

if u can face them and get away they will often raise their shield to see

icy vigil
#

ok thanks guys

stone moss
#

A lot of it is situational, but honestly I rarely see guys with face shields this wipe.

icy vigil
#

selling slug rounds too

stone moss
#

Here is a true story. Was helping a new guy a couple months ago. He ran into a geared player that was trying to camp him out. He shot the guy in the face with a 9x19 pistol a few times. Dude could not aim for crap after that and he ended up being able to get away.

#

He was badly injured, but he got away and was able to heal up and limp out.

icy vigil
#

is there any like recommended body armour/helmet or like sell any below this or that

stone moss
#

IMO helmet is waste of time. if you find one, put it on but other than that... don't waste the money.

#

For armor... you will only be saved from buckshot with class 2 armor that will be available to you right now and 30k for it is a scam

#

The problem is, if you go in without body armor and a gun you will get tagged and cursed which means AI get a hard on for you and will detect you easier and be very aggressive, which can make them hard to deal with.

icy vigil
#

should i sell paracord?

stone moss
#

ummm i would keep it for now. Maybe sell on fleamarket once you hit level 10

#

You will get double what TheRapist will buy it for

worthy sun
#

Im almost level 9

#

But its taking me sooo long to reach lvl 10

stone moss
#

The big thing is do quests if you can, kill things and loot a little and get out alive.

#

If you die you miss out on a huge exp multiplier

worthy sun
#

I know

stone moss
#

πŸ‘

worthy sun
#

Alright im in a raid now

stone moss
#

gl

icy vigil
#

i dont have any quests

#

or "tasks"

#

i spent quite a bit of roubles for a hideout early which might of been bad

stone moss
#

Go to each merchant and go to the "tasks tab in the upper left"

icy vigil
#

oh only one is TheRapist

stone moss
#

If nothing else, prapor and rapist should have one for you.

icy vigil
#

oh and

i always get killed by a fellow scav

#

and its so annoying

worthy sun
#

When you are doing scav runs?

icy vigil
#

wdym

#

i had to kill a scav cus he was shooting me

worthy sun
#

You have two "characters" to choose from. Scav and PMC.

PMC = The person you can equip and level in your stash. Scav will shoot on sight

Scav = Random gear and other scavs wont shoot unless you shoot them

icy vigil
#

can we do a raid, me u and @stone moss

#

yeah ik what a scav is

#

i was a scav

#

and i got shot at

All your stuff will be gone next wipe either way.

yee i know

keen sedge
#

So if you play in offline mode can you set it to no scaves so you can run around and check stuff out

slim maple
#

yep

keen sedge
#

Ok thanks

#

Do scaves always spawn in the same places or is it always different

steel grove
#

they have set spawns

#

but its a random one every time

keen sedge
#

Thanks

#

So when you and a team mate play together do you spawn in different locations and have to meet up

steel grove
#

yes and no

#

you spawn close but usually not right next to each other

marsh bluff
#

sp exp you gain as a scav doesnt carry over to your pmc correct?

analog fulcrum
#

@marsh bluff correct

#

your scav has his own main lvl + his own skills

marsh bluff
#

that you cant check im guessing

sacred vapor
#

whats a good kit for someone with 2 mil?

analog fulcrum
#

you can check your scavs lvl and skills when youre in a raid as scav

torn ledge
#

@sacred vapor How much of that are you willing to spend on a kit? I'd suggest just grabbing some class 3 armour and an AKM with PS ammo or something. Mod it out a little for recoil reduction etc but that should set you back 100k-150k, incl backpack and rig.

sacred vapor
#

ok

#

ill give it ago thanks man :D

is paca armor worth taking?

since i cant buy the armored rig yet

analog fulcrum
#

@marsh bluff well, its gonna save u from thorax/stomatch hits from shotgun scavs with buckshot, also some really bad ammos from some other guns

#

but any player who knows what hes doing is gonna have ammo thats going to completelly ingnore the class 2 of paca

marsh bluff
#

yeah ok so its anti scav for when im doing exp/gun runs

#

but isnt nessesary if you engage scavs correctly

analog fulcrum
#

ye its mostly scav protection, but they might hit u in the face annyway

marsh bluff
#

rn i just take the steel helmet and comtacs i was taking paca but i feel at this point as long as i engage properly it shouldnt make a difference and will save me some cash

#

at least untill the first armored rig

analog fulcrum
#

ragman lvl2 will have a class 4 armored rig for like 48k, that one is worth the money

#

super cheap for class 4 + dont need to buy a rig

marsh bluff
#

yeah that ones what im planning to add to my setup once i unlock it

#

im learning how to engage scavs properly rn anyways

languid flare
#

@marsh bluff Paca is only protection against buckshot & pistol Scavs

#

Or, well... low tier ammo scavs generally

marsh bluff
#

yeah seems that way i think i shoudl be focusing on learning proper engagement ratehr than using that armor becaulse ultimatly it doesnt really do anything that proper engagement cant solve

#

the level 4 armored rig is a different story but i dont ahve that yet

languid flare
#

Yeah, the 6b3tm is gold
That + ssh helmet (penis one) will be your standard go to equipment when you got it.

And about using Paca or not... well, honestly. Up to you if you mind spending the money, cause it DOES give a small protection against scavs, which can help

marsh bluff
#

ultimatly i want to transition to a scav run for cash, pmc run for pvp

#

rn im just oo low level wich is why im going after scavs

latent yacht
#

PMC is where you can make the most cash as your scavs won't have access to lucrative keys

marsh bluff
#

true

languid flare
#

Also, doing Quests can be fun :D
I prefer that over pure PvP

marsh bluff
#

quests.....the quests so far seem like nightmarish grinds

languid flare
#

They could be better, I will say that

remote quiver
#

i need some help with quests if anyone wants to im not that bad at the game but i still have no idea what im doing

rough hare
#

should i use moonshine or 85k?

#

(I have 3 moonshine)

marsh bluff
#

like the 2nd quest taht requires you to fight through dorms on customs.... thats not really achievable for me XD

languid flare
#

@rough hare If you have em, might as well use em
Maybe you get lucky.
Otherwise... 85k

rough hare
#

so don't sell the moonshine on flea then

languid flare
#

I mean... Scav Case is a gamble either way, its up to you if you wanna lose the money now or a little later
But if you dont use em, you wont get lucky either

torn ledge
#

You might make some crazy profit! Or you might make a large loss. More likely, you'll break even, more or less.

bold kernel
#

i got a rr first 85k case xd

marsh bluff
#

i mean the real key is that there is a statistical average payout

languid flare

The real money we made are the friends we found along the way.

Theres a part i need for gunsmith 4

and i dont have mechanic level 2 yet

so i need someone to buy this 6k rouble thing and put it on the market for me grizzLUL

if u buy it its not fir so u cant put it on flea

FUCK

#

wait right

#

yeah

languid flare
#

If bought of trader its not FiR

amber valley

Nevermind i just remembered that

BUT they could drop it in a raid

amber valley
#

god damnit BSG, thanks for making it hard for casual players grizzLUL

raven gazelle
#

thats what they want sooooooooo

amber valley
#

ive been outta the game for a bit. im level 18 but i started playing another game, then another game, then i got a switch lmao

vernal anchor
#

The idea is that you just progress to mechanic 2

amber valley
#

so i need to get back into it

slim maple
#

unfortunate

amber valley
#

Yeah, im thinking thatd be easiest

slim maple
#

it'd be so fun to do so

amber valley
#

Well if anyone wants to jam with someone who just needs to shake off some rust then im down. I havent played since before the backpack update

#

so i think tehres some other changes that happened tho

wanton sparrow
#

Does anyone know how to get a pt lock for the gunsmith part 2 quest?

marsh bluff
#

@bold kernel how do you reroute it if it wont open

analog fulcrum
#

@wanton sparrow well, u can buy it from skier lvl2 if u got him unlocked

marsh bluff
#

i cant reroute it becuase the launcher wont open now XD

analog fulcrum
#

@marsh bluff ehh did you move the launcher files or the game files? Since I think they use 2 different locations

marsh bluff
#

same location. so all of it

wanton sparrow
#

@analog fulcrum I dont, im only level 11 and havent spent that much yet

analog fulcrum
#

ehh pretty sure my BSG launcher and the game folder are in different locations

marsh bluff
#

pretty sure you pick locations when you install XD

analog fulcrum
#

yeah but I think you first pick location of launcher when installing it, then inside the launcher u pick where to install the game itself, so 2 locations, Im not 100% sure of this but I cant check since I wont be home til tomorrow

marsh bluff
#

yes but in this case the second location is the launcher folder

analog fulcrum
#

ah so you chose to install the game inside the launcher folder?

marsh bluff
#

well yes

#

wont let me change the directory now that ive seperated them anyways

#

"there is no acess"

#

run as admin to teh rescue

#

but i still dont know how to move the launcher, though i suppose i dont have to

analog fulcrum
#

well then, if you wanted to move the game to your SSD, I think u had to move out only the game folder, leaving the launcher files/folder in original place, so you could open the launcher and reroute the game folder

#

dont need to have the launcher itself on an SSD to improve loading times, just the game itself

marsh bluff
#

yeah i just like things neat and tidy but that saves space

#

i got it working probably now

#

marsh bluff

quest items?

bold kernel
#

how much do lab cards from therapist cost?

analog fulcrum

@marsh bluff some quests need items to be FIR, some quests it doesnt matter

@marsh bluff Quests tell you "Found in Raid X" when it needs to be FiR
If it doesnt say that, it can be not FiR

What do you need help with

well propably a lot of things

amber ocean
#

if anyone needs help feel free to DM me, but I only play Reserve

unreal imp
#

One thing you should know straight from the start is that paca armor at this point doesn't stop anything, so you save money not buying it, and bullets determine the armor penetration and damage and not the gun.

snow osprey

anyone know how commonly raiders spawn on revere

@snow osprey gluhar is 43% and raiders, i would say are around 30%

@marsh bluff you still need help?

marsh bluff

enh its just a process of learning slowly is all

once i hit level 10 things are going to go a bit smoother because my raid profits will double

shell edge
#

I can help you run woods

marsh bluff
#

im practicing my interchange run

shell edge
#

gotcha

raven gazelle
#

id recommend u do quests to lvl up

marsh bluff
#

quests are garbo and you cant really do them unless you know how to play and survive in the first place since they require that you sucessully extract

#

so by nessesity one must learn how to survive and extract before one can do the quests

strong barn
#

offline mode is always there for you to learn the exfils

marsh bluff
#

something tells me it would take me a long as time to level if what im doing is rushing dorms and dieing 40 times

#

then even if sucessful having to get out with a pocket patch

#

watch

#

like thats a bit more than a noob can acomplish

#

but i CAN get into the parking garage on interchange, kill scavs, and get out with guns and loot enough to keep doing it

strong barn
#

Its the most basic of fetch quests; if a noob can't figure that out he has a lot more to work on then just this quest

marsh bluff
#

correct

#

i have alot more work to do

#

before i can do that quest

strong barn
#

Maybe the new update 2morrow too customs will bring people away from the bronze watch location

marsh bluff
#

doubtful with 50k different dorm rooms and keys

strong barn
#

New keys etc are possible

marsh bluff
#

true but it would take what? 20 new keys ?

#

to overtake the loot of dorms?

strong barn
#

Its a completely new area to many many players favorite map; Im sure it will draw attention

#

true but it would take what? 20 new keys ?
@marsh bluff
to overtake the loot of dorms?
@marsh bluff
Implying dorms has loot; dont make me laugh
The loot there is from the pmc's who die fighting over marked room or reshala; there is barely anything there except safes

marsh bluff
#

seems to be enough with marked rooma nd reshala

#

and ladax

strong barn
#

When the map has no other hotspot; yes

#

The new area may change that

#

We have to wait and see; dorms will still be hot

marsh bluff
#

tbh my issue is i cant get through the chock in the center of the map

#

choke*

strong barn
#

It wont just be that railway by gas anymore

#

a whole new area to the other gas station will be opened

#

so you have a much more circular area instead of linear

marsh bluff
#

i get pinned between gas and dorms or construction and gas

strong barn
#

you have more escape routes with the new update; even if you manage to get the watch

marsh bluff
#

yeah i hope its a decent change

strong barn
#

there will be a cross over at the old gas station now leading to zb-1011
alledgedly

marsh bluff
#

but for perspective ive only managed to extract 3 times

#

i have exactly 1 player kill and it was a player scav

strong barn
#

tarkov is a hard game

#

keep playing :)

marsh bluff
#

right

strong barn
#

your skills will level alongside your pmc

marsh bluff
#

so 2nd quest is a bit more than i can do rn

strong barn
#

making you run faster; further; shoot with less recoil etc

marsh bluff
#

so i farm interchange garage to learn to kill scavs (who still fuck me 50% of the time) and have ocasional pvp fights

strong barn
#

atm your a level 1 or so in all categories so anybody who plays the game at all more or longer than you will run faster than you; shoot with less recoil etc

marsh bluff
#

ill leave the graphics cards and power loot to people who can play, ill take my guns and scav loot

strong barn
#

keep playing; dieing and your pmc's skills will improve and you will move better and have a deeper pool of stamina

#

Also less chance to bleed; break limbs etc

#

its a grind

marsh bluff
#

yup, its not too bad either

strong barn
#

how many raids have you been on?

raven gazelle
#

there isnt all that much to learn about killing scavs

marsh bluff
#

untill i get level 2 ragman/proper/therapist im basically running around in scav gear no matter what anyways

#

so getting my gear from scavs is the best thing i can do rn

#

becuase they have better shit than i can buy

#

(30 raids)

latent schooner
#

try going hunter with m80 ammo

#

budget gun that can kill alot of chads

i need some help but all the beginners assistance channels are full can someone help me through some raids

i dont have acess to a hunter

unless you mean a mosen

#

also no m80 ammo

yeah when i dont ahve scav weapons left i buy that

anyone looking for quest help?

river topaz
#

Hey i am pretty new to the game. wondering if anyone would wanna help me get some loot n tell me tips n stuff πŸ™‚ dm me!

marsh bluff
#

watching streamers on interchange and its like this giant brawl on 3rd for the tech stores and loot and they always get like double digit kill counts adn i cant help but kinda wtf at how inefficiant that is, sure the winner gets choice of loot but like 11 people got nothing, those are shit odds betting on being the best person on thrid floor, am i missing something or like are people just doing it specifically to play king of the hill

latent schooner
#

they are fighting over the ultra medical storage that regularly will spawn ledx and the tech light tech store which commonly spawns graphics card or tetris

#

there is usually a few groups that fight there most raids

marsh bluff
#

yeah but they are also fighting each other

#

only one makes it aout alive

#

do they suceed enough for it to be worth it?

latent schooner
#

ledx is like 1.8 mil or something

#

often control of that area of the map can relate to control over majority of the big ticket loot in the mall

marsh bluff
#

but even then its still king of the hill, your either the best or you lose

#

takes alot of confedence

#

just wierds me out because theres no way its that profitable

latent schooner
#

it is if you win

marsh bluff
#

nobody has a 100% winrate

latent schooner
#

win 1 in a few and its worth it

marsh bluff
#

so losses take out your winnings

#

i mean i cant even fight the scavs so it will be a while before i can take that kind of fight

latent schooner
#

then dont go there

marsh bluff
#

i dont i stick to teh garage

#

but it just wierds me out

latent schooner
#

you dont get better without fighting though

marsh bluff
#

true but somethign tells me a level 6 tryingg to weigh in on that contest isnt the smartest person on 3rd floor

latent schooner
#

if you do not have ultra medical key do not fight that fight

#

if you cannot even unlock the door there is no reason to go for it

marsh bluff
#

all the tech loot, plus someone else taking it XD

latent schooner
#

there is other tech stores that are not as dangerous

tough token
#

can anyone help me ive been playing for a week now and cant seem to get past level 4 any tips on leveling up faster and maps i should try to learn and play on more or is custom the easiest

marsh bluff
#

play interchange, stick to the basement, kill scavs... not saying its a good idea its just what im doing and now im gaining exp and shit

latent schooner
#

easiest money that is safe is probably stash running interchange

tough token
#

well anything helps thank u

latent schooner
#

is boring, will probably only run into scavs, but should make good profits

tough token
#

i love this game so far its just hard getting around

hearty torrent
#

hi i just started tarkov and im looking for some help

tiny stag
#

@marsh bluff do you find many scavs in the parking lot?

#

@tough token quests really ramp up in xp, so do as many as you can. Once you get decent you can play factory and slay scavs and the odd pmc

marsh bluff
#

at least 4

#

Holy crap guys I just got the game and had a few excellent matches but can't figure out extract locations

slim maple
#

here's a map

#

you should learn in offline mode for a bit that way you can get out when you need to

dry sleet
#

What's a good beginner solo map?

slim maple
#

Let's see

dry sleet
#

Been doing factory

slim maple
#

Customs and Factory are quite small so unless you know how to PVP then you should not go there yet

#

I'd say a good beginner area would be Interchange or Shoreline.

#

Interchange mostly since there's a lot of hiding spaces

#

Shoreline has some nice loot but it's quite open.

#

Customs is fine too but tomorrow will be a new expansion update so it'll be different

Ok im only lvl 7 rn thats why Im asking, based on what ive seen tho I will probably keep it so I can get thicc loot from that room

Hey, I've been playing here and there with my brother. I kinda suck. I'm lvl 7 and just looking for someone to maybe do a raid with me? I doesn't matter to me the map, just looking for tips and help playing the game

silver hornet
#

@opal gust they're placeholders, but I think they represent your survival rate on those maps

tiny stag
#

is regulated materials a required quest for kappa? and does the ash-12 you unlock make the quest worth it?

#

the 10 OFZ shells quest

silver hornet
#

No, and no.

tiny stag
#

thank you!

silver hornet
#

@bold kernel there's a couple charts on the wiki for what you need for Hideout. Most of them are just barter items.

normal fable
#

soo did i spend 200k on a filter for my AFU just for 5m of a boost i didn't get to use?

is kektape useful or rare?

ocean fable
#

@tiny stag no and most def yes. Ash-12 is one of the hardest to use but also one of the most overpowered weapons in all of eft

silver hornet
#

@normal fable it takes 5 minutes to install.

#

@silver hornet it went away after 5 min & it says i don't have any boost

Take a screenshot of your filter

Have you checked behind the tanks on reserve?

a few times as scavs with no luck

#

have you had a lot more luck than me? lol i need if for the quest

blissful lagoon
#

@tawny pulsar that quest doesn't lead into anything and it's not required for Kappa

tawny pulsar
#

its not required for kappa?

blissful lagoon
#

Correct

tawny pulsar
#

what a waste of time.. lol

blissful lagoon
#

I just do it passively through scav case

tawny pulsar
#

thx

blissful lagoon
#

I got my kappa over a month ago and I don't think I've finished it

#

although that might be a lie, I may have lol

#

and np ❀️

I wish shooter born in heaven wasnt required.

hot laurel
#

where can the bronze pocket watch spawn?

tawny pulsar
#

only in the tanker in customs factory zone

#

@hot laurel its a quest only item not an everyday item

okay thank you

modern hatch

Any specific spot I can find marked key? Really want it so I have a good reason to go to dorms

@modern hatch not really your best bet is scav pockets and jackets

Looks like it's better to disassemble to sell it rather than selling the whole weapon as one

if im a scav and i just spawned in and i kill another scav and extract will that be a run through?

It’s hard/impossible to get a run through as a scav

skier

#

you get 2 easy quests to make up for it from the other 2

I did therapist because she gave a med case which was like 600k at the time

#

And I don’t use zsh helmets

#

I bought a med case as soon as i turned level 10 cause I had 2.5 mil saved up

what is the best bang for ur buck hightier armor and helmet?

Some of the lvl 5 armor wasn’t too badly priced. But I think trades for tactec or cpc are best value

#

im pretty low lvl rn so im looking for stuff i can buy thru flea

lapis mauve
#

Oh, check prices on gen4 hmk or redut, those were cheapest last I checked

Killa armor might be good value too if you don’t die a lot

How is this gameplay compared to Battlefield and other shooters ??

pure talon
#

It's more like a ARMA or DayZ rather than BF or CS.

vernal anchor
#

Morecomplex

pure talon
#

And that's only the shooting part of it. Then you have all the inventory aspect of the game, looting and gearing. I like to think about Tarkov as a mix between ARMA and Diablo.

quiet wren
#

Will it get better, if you play it with others like groups of 2/3 persons. Kind of never got in to DayZ's gameplay πŸ™‚

arctic kraken
#

How do you find players to play with on a regular basis ?

quiet wren
#

Arma and Diablo.... Sound like many hours gameplay ,, lol

vernal anchor
#

Team play can be a positive and negative, you have to worry about knowing where your team is but you also have support

glass plinth
#

@quiet wren Did you just bought the game?

quiet wren
#

No, just looking in to if it will be for me πŸ™‚

glass plinth
#

Hmm well you could always join the beginners assistance or rooms and ask for them to share their screen and ask questions.

#

πŸ™‚

#

thats how i learned the most.

#

And i love the game.

quiet wren
#

Thanks for the tip πŸ™‚

Tarkov is a game that will beat you up for a long time before you start winning

toxic timber
#

what do u mean mako it will still beat u up after u start winning

vernal anchor
#

True

toxic timber
#

u win once u feel nice u go into another raid "boom" one tapped from 100m away or sth

quiet wren
#

Have gone through youtube to look in to it also. Just like to here more from you guys... Like how the game is playing it together with others / going solo alone...

vernal anchor
#

You won't get the same experience in any other game though that's for sure

toxic timber
#

true thats wut make tarkov super fun and addicting

carmine estuary
#

im down to be a cheap knock off sherpa

pure talon
#

There's a #pvp-lfg channel here where you can hook up with people. Eventually you find your friends with whom you'll be hanging around on a regular basis. Just keep in mind that the game can be very hard and confusing on it's own, and having to constantly track your teammates may be taxing so I would rather stick with a smaller groups (duos/trios) until everyone knows the map and the callouts.

toxic timber
#

@quiet wren if u want to know how to play tarkov with others then u must play with others to know actually

#

chill ppl will usually correct wut u did wrong and just try not to make the same mistakes next time

carmine estuary

this is tarkov
