Is shoreline ledx farming better than reserve tech farm? for rubles
Depends on your gear and patience
Shoreline has a lot of good loot right next to each other and is loaded with chads but reserve has some snipers and has lots loots within close proximity
is key to emercom medical unit worth doing? i heard it spawns ledxs and graphics cards but im still wondering if i should even try
yeah it is
meds and random tech spawn there too
also you have a quest that will need it down the line
Is PRS 5.45x39 ammo good?
anyone down to help me do some woods quest and loot runs level 13 NA
What other relatively cheap ammo that I can buy from the traders would you reccomend?
What level traders?
What level you and what ammo caliber
How do I know what the traders level is?
I'd recommend m855 from peacekeeper
and 5.45x39 cal
It's relatively cheap, and decently powerful
PS/BP is best you can get before lvl 10
PS is easy, just buy.
BP you can get if you buy the AKS from Prapor.
Comes with a full mag of BP
I'd recommend 7.62x39mm PS
For SKS/Vepr KM
Good and early
Im going go with 5.45x39 M855 for now, thanks for the help guys.
Always double check
I'd recommend switching to the adar if you can
guess im stuck with prs for now
Again. No.
You can get PS and BP for 5.45
Which both are way better than PRS
From who? I don't see any
PS is easy, just buy.
BP you can get if you buy the AKS from Prapor.
Comes with a full mag of BP```
Ah, 5.45 PS needs a Quest
Still, BP is avaiable from 0
So I just need to buy and AKS from Prapor to get 5.45x39 BP ammo?
Yup.
Can sell the gun to Mechanic
Comes to ~540R per bullet.
Expensive in comparison, but its the best ammo you can get
Then unload the mags
Its only that one that has the full mag, so yes
Im confused, I'm buying the gun for the mag?
You are buying the gun from Prapor.
It comes with a full mag of BP
You just want the mag, so take off the mag and sell the gun to Mechanic
Tada, you got a mag full of BP
!ammo
thanks
You wanna get as close as you can get to around 40 pen, if not higher
For 5.45 thats BP before Lvl 10
I really need some help with some tasks and i dont know who to ask, ive asked on the sherpa discord and i never get any responses
anyone willing to help a newb out
Anyone know where crossroads extract point is? these maps are confusing
Crossroads is by the storage units

Hey whats up guys

Couldn't extract there 3 times. Timer counted down but I couldn't extract.
yes
Not more than ragman pays
looking for help on a quest
is there anyone who can help me go through my stash, i got too much shit and i dont know what to sell
If you aren't going to use it in the next 10 raids or for quests then you might as well sell ot
@icy vigil just sell what your not gonna use
but i have stuff like keys and tradeables and idk what ammo
i have bags within bags within bags
idk
Send a screenshot
etc
it goes on for a while
ive been carrying gas analyzers since like the start of the game, ive been holding ammo that i dont even know if i should keep. I got a ton of stuff basicaly...
kinda tempted to just sell everything and start back up doing scav runs or smthn yk 😅
Id empty all ur bags and have just 1 stack with all of ur backpacks it it
yeah but i dont have any space to do so...
Put stuff on ur pmc to make space to start off with
Sunglasses and most other cosmetic stuff u dont really need
glasses bad, mkay?
Also, you dont need 2 wallets
@languid flare Well not at his point, but I just got 2 from a Scav raid and I decreased my money space from about 8 to 4.
Fair fair
@icy vigil Generally, get rid of your cosmetic stuff, empty mags, mags that you may have many of (ammo is smaller than in mags)
Maybe Pistols? Up to you if you use them or not
what is this for?
Crafting mostly.
it aint fully beginner assistance , but i suck ass at pvp and would love some help msg me
need help by a eu player
i have quite the amount of keys
Reserve marked room pog
Reserve marked room death
me and my friend need to kill sanitar can anyone help us?
Can someone run me through the jaegar quest on woods to get him unlocked?
@lusty stirrup he doesnt spawn every raid
@coarse dune what's your region?
Can't then. Good luck
RIP everytime i grab the letter i get close to extracting and die
Woods in a nut shell. You can try sitting in a bush and reading for 20 minutes.....
Take rubles for the car extract. Could be a life saver
yea im doing that next time

Yeah. I have done that too many times.

LFG lvl 4 (still pretty new) NA East
@blazing rock ill help ya out
@willow shadow okay
@willow shadow Can I join?

What call?
lfg customs 1
Quick question, is a laser sight just as accurate as a holosight?
ones a laser ones an actual sight
LFG LVL3 first wipe EU Interchange or customs
@shell shoal What region are you?
@river crypt Depends on the range you are working with. The laser will be offeset depending where it is installed from your holosite at least until i think around 50 meters out.
ok
one moment....
anyone wanna escort a newbie through dorms
could anyone help me get salewas or the bronze pocket watch?
my friend in sherpa waiting room
I found an item in a raid called KEK or KEKTAPE. Should I sell to therapist or wait till i get flea market?
ye 16k I just didn’t know if it was super valuable on the market
nahh u can google tarkov market then item name and itll show price
all dorms keys r bad in my opinion but could be useful for u right now
some r also used for quests so go for quite a bit
ok
LFG lv5 EU
anyone i can just follow around and learn the game from ??
What region are you step?
are empty lobbies possible?
As in completely empty no scavs or players?
I don't think so, but BSG said they're working on private matches
wait couldnt u cheese private matches where there is no killing exept for scavs and everyone profits?
No, I don't think there will be any progression in private matches
Yes, that is true. Nikita confirmed that it will be a feature, but there will be no benefit of doing them other than just for fun.
Does anyone wanna play, im pretty new and not that good though just a heads up
empty lobbies are entirely possible @rapid minnow
Bro how do you find extraction points when you first start playing
I’m looking at a map on 2nd monitor but can’t figure out where I am
maybe in interchange we have like just 5 other players
@bold kernel i think he meant private matches
Anyone willing to help with a few quests? I need to do Delivery From the Past and Operation Aquarius for sure
Also @full elk play some offline raids and explore, you'll understand the map more and find places to loot for actual raids, you don't lose anything on offline raids too so you can put bots on and practice firefights as well
@full elk just run scavs. 100% only scav runs.
Doesn't help learn PMC extracts tho, but yes playing as a scav will help as well
@dire island still need help, i can try to help
Yeah I still need help lol, I've just been waiting, I have the docs case from customs, so don't need to do that part again yet
ok well tell me what vc and ill join
last chance for people to get in the sicc case battle royale im hosting if anyone wants in. knife fight battle royale last one gets a sicc case must be unable to obtain one yourself

New player, level 5 need some help with task and learning the game better
is the black vigenette thing that pops up around your screen supression? i think i had a silenced shot fly over me while i was looting but im not sure
IDK
thanks very helpfull
@bold kernel yes, that's suppression
thanks
np
that was hella surpressed then, i heard a slight crackle and that was it
yep
Are 7mm buckshot better or Flechette in your opinion?
aight I'll bring that instead then
Yeah 7mm is a 3 and flechette is a 6 but wasn't sure if the other stats mattered enough to switch
sorry about that, i spilled coke and it got on my keyboard
yeah i tend to pick flechette every time, 8.5 is the only buckshot worth using tbh
and then its stomach/legs, or no faceshielf face
shield
Flechette, 8.5, and AP-20 are the only 12 gauge ammo you should use
^
gotcha fam, I'll sell all the other 12 gauge ammo I have stored
good call
8.5 for legs and faces, Flechette for close range armor pen, and AP-20 for if you want to reach out and hit someone
does anyone wanna run with a brand new player? ive had the game for a week and havent played it too much
I already sent you a dm
Should I sell my 20 bitcoins for like 3 mill to therapist or just trade 13 for a weapons case
Need help
anyone know how i level up peacekeeper fast?
is labs actually really profitable or naw
if u have cards yes, if u only have access its harder but yes
can someone help me do quests?
@pliant shoal just buy dollars from him using roubles

@tropic depot i dont want to go poor though it's already happened once

anyone able to help a lvl 9 out here in about 2 hours when i get on? looking for help with tasks, money making and general game knowledge. I can hold my own in a fight and out flank/ think most enemy players but im struggling with task completion...
anyone want to trade me a m2 sword will give whatever you want for it dont want to do the mission
Shturman got fucked with a mp153
zhuk-6a 37 dura or 47 dura tactec, which will protect me more?
tactec
Tactec for sure.
That zhuk is dead weight
not only that, but the issue is that the lower the dura is compared to the original health amount, the higher chance rounds have to pen it
Thats what I mean by dead weight :P
Its useless, but weighs you still down.
thats true
im just giving an explanation so he can understand why i told him that
zhuk has 75 durability normally
since it is near half of its original durability, it probably can't block much of anything that could pen tier 3-4, and after one more shot it probably wont' block anything that can pen tier 1-2
Its ceramic too, so yeah
1 or 2 shots and its literally ded
armor mechanics are pretty complex and i won't pretend to be an expert
but aacpc, slick, tactec, and other armors that use similar types are very effective, not only for their tier but also for lower tier armors efficiency
yeh
Looking for people to do low level tasks with, im pretty new.

US
Playing with my brother that is brand new at this game. Anyone tryna help teach him the game?
Im level 17 and I need some help with money making and such

Where is the best place to loot gun attachments for Gunsmith part 1?
Any weapon boxes, so pretty much most maps
sick thank you so much
Really noob question. If im selling 5 items on the flea market for 76k each, and my flea market fees amount to 40k, what percentage of my profits am I paying in fees?
76k*5 - 40k
right, but whats the percentage
I think its like 20%
am I roughly accurate
I forgot how to figure percentages.
actually,nvm belay my last google has a calculator for it and I was way off.
Its 10%.
what hideout upgrades do I need to get to reduce that?
Intelligence 3
how much does that cost from intelligence 1

anyone down to help me do some woods quest and loot runs level 14 NA
ok i need advices please, i found a magazine case in a room, but all i have is a combat rig, what should i do ?
learn to take a fucking backpack 

yeah take a backpack
Kill a scav, take his backpack.
Best way to kill a raider scav? i've lost over 800k because of them by now
Don’t agro then until you have a headshot lined up
They are pretty blind at medium to long distances
well... what if 4 of them saw me and aggro'd me first
Get behind a cover and wait for them to come to you then spam
Or just run away and shoot through something would be the safest
What map?
Rat gang rise up
For people who want to level up the Mechanic and make lots of money easily buy rollers for under 71k on the flea, buy the smg from the mechanic for it then sell it back to them for 71k. It’s easy money
yo anyone want to squad up and help me out im new
I can't go in with you but ill answer ur questions

NA East. new to the game. lvl 5. need help with tasks and learning the game
If I take a item back from the flea do I get the money back I paid to put it up?
AGH! room 206 key!?!?
Hi could someone help me do the Stirrup part 1 ?
There is no part two
And just do it later when you got decent ammo.
You dont need it for anything anytime soon.
your best bet is to run into factory with pistols if you really wanna get it done
i finished it early out of pure luck
cuz i got a gyurza with nice ammo off of someone
Someone tell me a TOZ isn't just a troll weapon. I've been using it for about an hour and I have yet to kill a single person through their legs. Even with Devastator Slugs
It's definitely a troll gun, the only time I've been able to kill anyone with it was from < 10ft away and with buckshot.
can someone tell me please how to practice pvp?
speaking of troll things... is the Prapor quest getting documents from customs and deliever tyo factory actually real? The secure package thing never appears? is it a USB>
I've been first in the office on Customs about 9 or 10 times and nothing to collect
@rose whale Bro, say it ain't so! Can't believe they'd do that, especially when your own scav can spawn with one. Waste of a scav raid smh
!wiki delivery from the past
Take a look at the picture from the wiki @river crypt. Is that where you are looking?
yep, been through the wiki and guides.. just doesn't seem to spawn. I'm down to just doing knife runs to look for it
Do you have the quest accepted?
Id restart your game first
yep fair
also note its a client side item, so its only visible on your end and it can't be taken by someone else
@hallow arrow while I agree, theres nothing more satisfying than sending a sad soul back to the lobby with arguably the worst gun in the game.
@rose whale True, I just wish it was a one shot or even a two shot. It's bolt action, has a slight delay upon ignition, only has limited mags, no other grip attachments, ammo that can't penetrate higher than 2. Like dude is it hard to kill anyone with it
and has the accuracy of a blind drunk grandma
If you use it, at least run buckshot
How much harder is EFT without a secure container?
Depends how well you can survive generally.
Harder if you die often.
Not much difference, if you survive often
Tho keys will be... interesting
Last wipe I would have said that you're insane, now with the found in raid flea market changes, I would say more doable? but losing keys would be the big bummer.
I think its literally just the keys as issue
There is the 'Hardcore Challenge'
Which still allows keys and only keys in container
but no container? that's like ultimate hardcore lol
Tarkov is not a game you should play when drunk, experiencing a manic episode or any of the sort. That's for sure.
^ or if you're prone to panic attacks
Today: IC hatchling run for my HDDs
@gritty sparrow if u wanna play im somewhere on eu
or i can bring u those, they arent xpensive on flea
ooh nice
Mechanic is going to give me 6300 XP for it, adding to 32,200 gives level 8 with around 2,300 left
@austere sand I will probably try a scav run as derpy suggested, later, but I'll let you know if I'm available tonight : )
kky
Alway try to be somewhat self sufficient.
Its no shame to ask for help with Gunsmith when its parts you cant get easily, but 2 HDD really isnt hard 😛
if I die in 10 raids for 2 dang HDDs, then I may need help
otherwise I'm soloing it : )
From vids i watched, most engagements are medium range inside the buildings, espcially in the hallways then?
Oh shall i use my PMC wait for a few minutes trick
works almost everytime I want to finish quests
It is painful trying to survive this late in wipe.
ah yes prapor plz give me back my aks74u running PS with an apparent 15k sight on it that i domed a guy the other day with but still died to his chad friends
My goal shall be taking that screenshot of me getting to level 10
nope full auto CQB
big red
I thought I wasnt gonna stand a chance but apparently i did
Yeah he was arms length in front of me tho lol
So many PVP experts here, while I struggle to kill scavs.
Scavs are funny to deal with in my mind
it's always a roll of the dice whenever you get into a scav encounter
unless it;s a player, you can weave back and forth and tap em
well, coin flip really because they are either turned around or locked onto you
Is he going to be braindead? or is he going to 1 tap me from 100m away?
Back of head taps are so funny XD
scavs are definition of min max
Oh yeah has BSG fixed scavs teleporting thru doors yet
A raider almost nailed my team in dorms yesterday cuz of the bug
9/10 I get lined up on the scav and die to a player.
@gritty sparrow nopeeeeee
i mean bodyguard
@bold kernel I haven't had that one yet.
@bold kernel I would be paranoid and think I entered the twilight zone
^ I like this guy
same
it's ok. I don't know russian, so I just spell it out phonetically
wait the audio is called scav4_fight_10_bl for the funny long long long ublydok line
same here lol
Whats the spawn rate of shturman?
!wiki bosses
need help with tasks
w0lf which ones?
Does Jaeger restock his Sicc case trade?
Just unlucky then
Damn
Funny thing is before I got the eliminate shturman quest
Id get him all the time
Ill just keep tryign
When you need to find or kill something, it never appears for you. When you don't need it, it is plentiful.
And death isn't any better.
is anyone having a prob with the captcha on eft website??? I mean im dumb but not dumb enough to fail a captcha 50 times
sometimes it is squirrely
and doesnt even say im wrong it just puts me back on the screen
i have done it 50+ times god help me please
Try from a different browser?
ight bet
Maybe you are just a robot
TRUE
Does SICC trade with Jaeger restock ?
Yeah
How long time does it take?
diff browser worked ty
Should be around 2-3 hours or so?
Its been 2 days now
The timers for every traders are about the same I think
And its still telling me to wait for Restock
When was the last time you bought it
2 days ago
diff browser worked ty
@fierce mortar Glad it worked :)
Thats odd, I have 2 sicc cases and Im able to buy another
Max: 1
No no no
Im lvl 38 and hes lvl 3 for me
You have purchased this item in 0 pcs
Means you can only purchase 1 at a time per every 3 hours
lol what
You have gotten 0 this hour
I bought mine 2 days ago xD
I just bought everything for that Sicc, maybe it'll fix itself. maybe wait a bit longer restart my game.
It is quite buggy afterall lol
Max means you can only buy "x" amount per every restock hours
Unless they changed it
I know, just that i have everything for it
Because I have 2 sicc cases
I also have 2 sicc cases, but the first one i got from Marked before the update
The 2nd one i bought like 2 days ago
Yeah I got 2 from jaeger
maybe ill just have to wait idk
Or i can check after this raid if i am missing one item
Its in 10 minutes or so
Yeah yeah check if you have the right items
Or if you have enough
Yeah
Because Im pretty sure the max just means how many you can buy per restock
Thank FUCK i was missing one item LUL
There we are
I thought i had broken Jaeger
Guys what am I missing here for the gunsmith pt 3?
alot
u need sd upper, and tri rail
and light
u cant use the normal mp5 upper
and its supposed to be the sd version
I can’t find any “sd” parts on flea market
peacekeeper lvl2?
Nah it’s at lvl 1
when looking for ammo and whats better, do i prioritize flesh damage or penetration power
Depends on what you are trying to do
High flesh is for leg meta, high pen for center of mass
and we all about that penetration power around here bb
@dark kiln more often than not you're gonna want high pen
this is one of the most demoralizing games I've ever played
welcome to Tarkov
doing the skier quest to kill pmcs with a handgun
trying that is, got to get 2 more the first one was afk
You dont want to use a tt
Use an APB, it'll give better results.
I'd recommend a five seven or a glock just because of the ammo
The best handguns in the game are the Five-SeveN, the SR1MP, or the G18. Some people like the APB too.
Don't judge, Stechkin best sidearm.
and use luger ammo?
For the G18, you can either go flesh damage with Luger CCIs, or AP 6.3/7N31
G18 or G17 both are good, i'd recommend using single fire and tapping heads but a G18 can function as a leg chainsaw with the 1200rpm
If you use RIP the hits to kill is 5 to legs
SR1MP life
SP13 can pen a full tactek in 3-5 shots
It has 39 pen; as much as 7n31 for 9x19
SR1MP more like five seven with more recoil
SR1MP has 39 pen if you use sp13
this is the same pen as the new 7n31 9x19 ammo
If your gunna use a handgun; use a shrimp because its economical and the ammo is available--relatively
The SP13 also does around 72 flesh damage
where as 7n31 only does 50-55
A glock with 7n31 has third of the recoil and the sights available sit lower on the gun making it easier to use
200 a round versus 2000 a round
you decide
Last time i checked 7n31 was 600 from prapor
if you can ever get it
flea it starts at 1500+
Thank you @silver hornet
sp13 is less than 200 rubles for a 39 pen + 72 flesh damage round from traders
you can buy much more SP13 from Prapor, and no one every buys it
But while it is cheaper the gun that it comes out of is 2 times worse in performance 
sp13 is also around 149 on flea market
the performance for price is unmatched
when they add a full auto Veresk SMG that fires 30rnd mags of sp13 at 1200rpm I'll be very very happy
You can argue price and availability but rn a glock is a better choise from the perspective of pure performance
i cannot justify 2000 rubles a shot for less flesh damage and more accuracy
I also like the sound of the SR1MP just blamming away 🤣
yeah I can't wait for the SR-2
SR-2 will be my go too 100% for labs
Shred any armor E Z
as long as the price/stats stays the same for sp13
All im saying is for over 300% more monetary value per shot I am not recieving 300% increase in recoil using a glock over a SR1MP
Too each their own
whats a good level 4 helmet that isnt overly expensive
Hey all, is there a guide of the order of importance on Hideout? Just started the game and want to make sure I level hideout correctly
MICH is pretty alright, depending on your definition of expensive.
Gezoyte, some of the stuff in the hideout allows you to upgrade other parts and each one offers their own benefits. I'll send you a list of what the modules do, one second.

Thank you so much
@short star Honestly unless i am putting on an altyn I just use the level 1 replica helmet for bouncing off junk rounds. If you really want you can use the green one that is level 3 for the ricochet chance. In my experience, only the altyn has ever saved me and it isn't cheap.
The shattered mask is good too for buckshot protection.
need help with pvp est lvl 7
am i able to do cliff descent on reserve with an M1 rig on? i know i have to remove body armor but are tactical rigs ok

@short star AcHHC
Is there any way to use the SRS-02 as a backup sight on an Ak104
@delicate moat you probably have Tarkov running in the background minimized
control alt delete
honestly, just restart your computer.

nighttime interchange with leg meta in mind is fun
when playing offline, "as online" difficult is the same as easy or medium or hard or impossible?

And some grub in the bushes one tapped me
Sad
anyone down to help me do loot runs level 15 NA
Can I just spam refresh Fence to see if an item might pop up? Or will he time out or something
Everybody tells me that I'm supposed to be using M855 Ammunition when using certain Rifles? Are they correct about this "Meta"?
Anyone who tells you to use M855 is either trolling, or an idiot
Hah, I could kind of tell they we're giving me a joke response.
855a1 is the ammo
@median skiff you can try not very effective what you looking for?
M855A1, or M995 are the only ammo you should use for 5.56
995 isnt worth tbh
For the price it doesnt so the job
You may as well spend money on a fal and use m61 or m62
Ngrgh.
what is a good way to do quests in shorline around the health resort? every time I go anywhere near it I get shot
@bold kernel DM me.

Is that 12hrs per coin or 12 for all 3 because HOT DAMN if 3.
12 per coin
Aw. RIP
So, since I bought 5 of those GPUs at 250k a piece and BC are 100k, it'll take over a week to break even.
I had 5m rubles yesterday. I now have 1.2m. Whoops
if anyone wants to go, learn Interchange loot runs I have a pretty decked out Mp5 I can gift you.
I figure the sweet spot is probably 25 gpus?
Log in everyday and snag the BC.
Any hardcore BTC farmers want to tell me what they spend the coins they get on??
Medbag tree at Old Gas Station apparently has a helmet spawn?
does anyone wanna play? im not im new so i might be a bit useless 😄

@frozen olive @left pebble @fast shore ^ that might help you guys out
Edy is typing
Hi
Hows it going
Nice, I dont need help but I would be down to run some if my wifi wasnt bad and if it wasnt 11 pm here
@twilit spindle I have been running factory and still getting screwed over
It's the lag that's killing me
factory is a terrible new player map just fyi
depends, do you have any keys? how big is your safe container?
i have an alpha
i mean im not super duper broke but i want to upgrade my hideout
and not go homeless
Id work my way to getting the epsilon (finish all of peacekeeper quests) thats basically 2 alphas, do you have keys?
If you dont have any keys Id do fast pistol runs through reserve, hit up queen to grab tech items and sell to therapist
alright, ill do that, only problem is I always die immediately going into reserve
and i dont have the nerve to go into the mall in interchange
very scary places you want me to go
Its not that bad.
I would take you if I wasn't shining my boots.
If you blitz Olli you can get in and out in under 8 minutes. The odds of running into a PMC in that time span is 1/10.
Unless you are afraid of Scavs; in which case I don't wanna take you.
is this a good gun? or should I just sell
@dapper dagger, if you have good 5.56 ammo, I'd use it, but TBH, it's worth so much that I'd just throw it to Mechanic and buy something cheaper.
anyone down to help me do loot runs level 15 NA
Anyone wanna do a couple runs? i need to plant my docs on factory and find a gas detector. i have the pump room key and factory exit key? im pretty new to the game lvl 9 NA servers. ill probably only do a couple runs.
@dapper dagger I could do some nasty shit with that rifle
is lower the numbers on recoil better?
any sherpas on?
@tawny marlin yes
bruh somebody help me with delivery from the past
@solemn pike probably lol
Idk if it's a good idea to think this way, but I kinda stopped being scared to use good guns since I realized that I'll just be able to make those guns myself at a higher level
Unless the gun is crazy expensive or something
Yo im in the military. But if you see me online on discord always feel free to DM me, if im online here i can play and ill happily help anyone try to learn Interchange.
Pog, I need help with that map
@silver hornet 


where tf the sherpaaaas at
how da heck do ya get the punisher pt4 done when ya can't find any pmc rEE
@waxen scroll !sherpa
@topaz hearth sj6 to resort and sit outside east 110
I have a question please, some items that acutally i'm getting from raids by killing people and looting them, when i go back and want to sell them in FleaMarket, it tells me that the item can't be sold cuz it wsnt found in a raid. Can someone explain me if maybe i missing something here or if it's a bug. Thank you
If you loot a player that brought items in, those items are not fir... Only times looted or on scavs / raiders are fir @unique axle
oh, i see now, so even weapons that i take from other players i can't sell them? 😮
You can... Just not on the market
yeah yeah sure. well thank you for your help, that explained me a lot here lol
was wrong about it 100%
Depending on the weapon or parts it may be better to strip the good stuff off and use it on your own guns
I see, as i'm looking to do the best profit possible of my raids, i'm more a low budget for raids than going with expensive weapons and gear and die with it lol. I'm still new and lvl 12 lol
one last question please, who should i lvlup first prepor or skier?
and if possible explain me what the benefits of doing so
leveling up skier will get you peacekeeper
hi guys. short question. im early in the game and i did find two paracords should i sell or do i need them later for a quest?
*which means i should keep them?
sell them, they're fairly common on reserve in the bunkers. I believe you only need it for textiles part 1, which will give you a lvl 48 outfit. Not neede for kappa
guys i got a green labs card in my scav case, sell or keep?
is EFT on a mass market engine or is it a built one?
thank you very much @grave glade
@rugged mason Unity engine according to a quick google search
@flint condor No problem! You can search items on the tarkov wiki and it will tell you if you need them for a quest and any trades you can do with the items. Its really useful 🙂
Unity... so mass production then
FINALLY. BITCOINS!
can some1 help me do a quest in customs?
What quest and region @cyan steeple ?
eu and its called debut
Sorry I'm NA.
Yup. I'd try the #pvp-lfg chat. More traffic there so more people will see it. Generally good to include your region and exactly what you want to do in the post.
mhhh ok thx for the info
nobody in an LFG chat is going to help you do debut. Your best bet is the Beginners assistance VC
The text post not a VC
And a good number of us that hang out there help people. It's just another place to try.
LFG is typically mid tier to high tier (or people who think they are mid/high tier) players playing together. From what I have seen they typically take people who are questing on a ride around the entire map (including pvp areas) because that is what THEY want to do there.
eu and its called debut
@cyan steeple I don't really have tips for actually killing the scavs, but you have to be playing as a PMC. Try to go for headshots, and the gas station (not old gas station) is the place I've had best luck with. It seems like they're a little slow to react, so you can easily run past them and get behind them in close quarters. (From what I've observed.) It's not much, I hope it helps, (take it with a grain of salt, I'm pretty new so what I said might have beeen wrong)
But if you hear any grenades at New Gas don't go. It's probably scav boss.
Or do 
Easy way to get scav kills on customs
Bring mosin- search for sniper scavs- there can be at most 4 on Customs
They stand still in a predetermined location waiting to get shot by your mosin @cyan steeple
rocky cliffs overlooking new gas station and upper parts of the building with usec stash are also really good
Is the aks 74u viable? I was messing around with it, the spray pattern is controllable only within 10 meters
The Ak74U has the most recoil of any of the AKs in the game regardless of how much you mod it @cloud rover
those mods would go further on a different AK
I'm forced to run it stock anyways
It comes with some ammo too so It isn't that bad of a deal
@cloud rover I can send you a budget ak-74u build
50kish
with vendor item
74ish recoil
how does find in raid work i found some items in a shoreline raid in room 301 and died later i put it in my gamma but its not find in raid
so i cant die??
Nope
Anyone able to help me get more confident at pvp, and be able to fight (I run most of the time) , i don't have a high survival rate , its 30 percent! If u can help msg me , u can call and ping , me eg @ so and so
@gritty sparrow Its not the gun, but the ammo.
Remember that 😛
7n31 oh yes
Thats 9x19
You mean, 7n39? 😄
what do you use firesteel for?
That will do plenty, but a bit overkill too.
BS is fine
@analog arrow one Found in Raid for Collector Quest for Kappa Container
thanks @languid flare
7n39 is not overkill. Its the difference from 3 tapping thorax lvl 5 armor or 4 tapping with bs at basically same price range. The ONLY real drawback is the extra recoil which I never notice between BS and 7n39. I never buy bs but I will use the ones I find in raid. 7n39 is arguable one of the best bullet in the game
Anyone wanna do a scav run im new and i need more loot

@silent gulch Tell that to Sanitar
The 7n39 does 37 flesh with 62 pen
BS does 40 flesh with 51 pen
Sanitar has over 2400 health points and wears no armor; you can dump 40-55 rounds of 7n39 into him and he will live 🤣 (combined with him popping like 7 stims mid fight)
@silent gulch BS will 3 tap class 5 as much as 7n39 does <.<
51 pen goes through
i think 5.45 is like playing airsoft in tarkov
@strong barn Also... Sanitar only has 1270 HP
Of which 360 is Thorax.
Soooooo
10 bullets of 7n39 and 9 of BS 🙂
(2 to the head, 70 HP)
Anyone want to run around Duo? I'm only lvl 5, still new to game. I like woods / factory down for whatever.
can anyone help me on woods and get sum quest done?
I'll be your bait😂
Looking to get soem quests done, anyone want to join?
scavs survive headshots
Its a bug, yes
i spent 7 mil trying to kill gluhkar i cant do it still 😦
@languid flare Trust me when I say I have done around 2400 damage to sanitar with magnum buckshot and he heals nonstop with ETG stims and all kinds of shit so it can easily take more than that
And @woeful knoll has a clip of him and I in resort and Maydie dropped around 40+ igolnik into him and---its quite the clip if you have it maydie
Hmm...
Wiki says 1270
But Sanitar is weird all around anyway
He is just strange imo
Bushes? Just a rumor, dont exist
I hope maydie can get the clip because its really something else lmfao
Oh, I've seen some shit with Sanitar
He is the stimlord
i wonder if he has max surgery skill
I mean he most often has a CMS but he uses it fast and it still takes loads of ammo to kill him so Im curious of the bosses stat layout
Never seen him use a CMS yet.
Hmm
Ive heard him click-clack away
and if you kill him and his CMS is missing any uses; he has used it
I see
If you kill him before he gets a chance to use stims; he will have a full backpack of his shit
Every time we fought him he died quickly to headshots
(Not quickly fight wise, just quickly when we see him)
am brand spanking new
But you have to kill him in the start of the fight; if it becomes an extended conflict he seems to never have anything in his bag when I kill and loot him
Im assuming he 'used it' 🤷 but didn't get a chance when I vog grenade him in a different raid as the first player to east wing @languid flare
I guess so
hello everyone
Hello.
suuuuh'
so how in the hell do you find a group
or is it based entirely off of the discord like gtfo?
Sanitar needs fixes though.
Mostly how precise they are.
He's a doctor/Surgeon
200m headshot with valday and 9x39mm BP ammo on the first bullet is a bit much LOL @languid flare
@normal dagger Yes it is :D
shit i thought my dyslexia was kicking in
Exactly.
Way 'too good' for a 'civilian'
well, any pointers? currently running scav on factory.. anything i should be aware of other than general lay out?
Well, first of all, Factory is pure PvP
Bad map to survive / learn the real game
what would you recommend?
Reserve or Interchange
Or customs but everyone knows customs lol
Customs for Quests (Scavs cant do quests, but find non quest items for quests)
Interchange
Reserve I will never recommend. xD
Hard for beginner and not everyone can run it
still got cosmoline on my boots new
scav the maps
Nothing to fear but fear it self @normal dagger
!sherpa
group
solo imo because groups will make you more confused until you are established imo
I hated groups but they have value; strength in numbers and all that
duo is great tho
Try both and see what works better for you 😛
Group is great
Duo is where it's at IMO
if u run with good people
does gl 1 shot sanitar?
@tiny pelican Grenades do, so probably.
time to go cheese sanitar
If he doesnt one tap you as you round some corner
what says he will see me, gl has a explosion radius so i just have to shoot around a corner
Yes, every corner tho 😛
I've seen my duo die to sanitar as soon as he walked inside bottom floor reserve.
Didnt hear/see him, just in, looked around corner, pew pew, 2 rounds of 9x39mm BP in his chest, ded
I was behind him and was like WTF
eh ill just let someone else rush in and die to him
@waxen scroll !sherpa
I just got the game last night if anyone has good pointers that would be helpful!
@limber sorrel what do you wanna know?
Tarkov is a game about ammo and positioning. Map knowledge is key
and ammo is always more important than the gun it is in
@limber sorrel what do you wanna know?
@ember mesa Just basics, im trying to learn the map atm
Customs I'm assuming
and ammo is always more important than the gun it is in
@carmine gust except for guns like the Toz and Ash12
dont use either of those.
LOL are those guns?
The most noob friendly rifle is the ADAR2-15. Get one. Use it. You should use it until about level 15 at which point you can swap it for the M4 or the 416.
@limber sorrel You watched Pestily's new map guides? I wouldn't recommend the ADAR to heavily just because of the ammo selection early. The 855 is pretty bad. SKS with PS is better but the reload time can be rough
Also the sks is very powerful when starting out
you can always go for a ak74u whit bt or bs you can find those on like 10spots on customs
SKS with PS is better but its significantly more expensive. youll find ADARs everywhere.
I mean if you find adars and rec batteries to trade for them YAY free gun but you will lose some fights because of the ammo.
@ember mesa Just basics, im trying to learn the map atm
@limber sorrel If you have a second monitor then use that for your map, if not then just print it out, it'll be very helpful, especially when trying to learn it at first
This guy Tarkovs. Map is so helpful
i just keep switching between in game and the photo
if a new guy want a game whit me i can help you whit the map you need to be age 18+, tho
One of those games eh? lol
@ember mesa thats dumb lmao
use your phone.
"x map exfills."
id bet my left arm 90% of people here have smart phones.
The map is way to small on my pleb phone.....
yeah old I phone here. Screen is too small to see anything on the map.
but I dont actually use maps, I google the youtube exfills.
idk if that makes it easier, I think it does.
Yeah watching the exfil vids helped me a lot starting
@ember mesa thats dumb lmao
@twilit spindle how is that dumb? if you use your phone you
will have to zoom around on everything in order to see
you can't fit the whole map on the screen
I dont actually use maps on my phone, maybe its less dumb with your explanation.
I find the maps have horrible points of reference
so I google the exfills
if i dont know them for sure.
im level 4 and i know some stuff but every time when i play i get one tapped from nowhere how do i know where people are
Learning the spawns. Once you know those you will have a pretty good idea where people are going to be the first few minutes.
you buy you some good headphones IRL, THEN, you buy you some good headphones in Tarkov, and you wear both every time!
thanks for the help
and you SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! Especially at level 4, youre not a ninja. Slow and patient! Let the other people fuck up.
Or just change your name like I did. Never die again.
Sometimes, high level Tarkov play can be compared to a chess match. I basically know where you are, you basically know where I am, assuming our level of aim is about the same, now its a battle of maneuver !
surviving 40% is doing pretty good.
not true.
My aim is atrocious.
I cant hit the broad side of a barn.
The stormtroopers are recruiting me heavily.
If I see you, you have to really fuck up in order for me to kill you.
thats why when I drop PMCs I always DM them with what they did wrong after.
Such a helpful member of the community lolz
That doesnt mean I dont know the game?
I know how to win fights
and i manuever better than you.
I just cant hit my shots so its irrelevant.
That's why I love buckshot. When scavs don't have it at least.
