I'm fairly new but I've never been under fire so aggressively when I spawn
Factory has the worst spawns in my opinion, like if you spawn glass hallway or in one of those red rooms, you either rush like a maniac or get pelted with a nade
If I spawn crossroads I probably take the boxes at the extract by the car, loot a couple things in the storage area, go big red if it's quiet, then cut across new location towards old gas, looting more/less depending on what I have
Factory is a shitshow, that's just small maps in any game for you
If I spawn crossroads I probably take the boxes at the extract by the car, loot a couple things in the storage area, go big red if it's quiet, then cut across new location towards old gas, looting more/less depending on what I have
my point is that the area around you is 'yours' because you're unlikely to encounter enemies in the first 5 mins, so take the loot and don't rush into other people's spawn area, and you're fine in my experience
less aggressive you play, and more aware of likely locations of others, the safer you are
I suppose, I try to be a chad and play aggressively but I suppose thatβs not working too well
Can i get help with any of these tasks please
is anybody having trouble scaving reserve?
like getting in a raid or in raid scaving?
getting into a scav raid
i found like 4 gas analyzers in one raid once lol
im often in queue for 10+ minutes
file cabinets are full
and never find a game
and theres a long scav time cause everyone wants to scav there and there isnt enough pmc
just do interchange or customs
everyone scavs on reserve, hence the long matching
@hexed maple I cant help with the quests in game since I'm at work but I can give you tips on them if you need
sure, all help is needed at the pace i am doing these at π
tasks are hard at the beginning. especially if you come in late wipe
learning the pace of each map helps a lot
DM me that screenshot and any questions you have and ill help you out as best I can @hexed maple
any chads wanting to help me learn pvp because I've lost a lot because I dont know what to do in situations
howdy everyone, im brand new to the discord and pretty new to the game
Best way to practice pvp is to memorize how your gun works, so find your favorite piece and study its recoil pattern and aim offset, turn up offline raid scav difficulties and fight bosses
can anyone help me with some quests?
Or use your scav as the experiment, try more aggressive tactics with them in order to get used to the feeling since its no real loss if a scav gets iced
Which quests?
can someone help me do find yeagers note without dying
Is the hunter a decent sniper or better off using something else?
How is its range for sniping?
unless you have jaeger lvl2, mags for vepr hunter are hella expensive
5mag is fine if your only using it for a sniper
5 shots of m61 should be more then enough to take down 1-2 targets from range
Can someone help me do some quests?
i need some help bringing in some money and actually surviving pls help
I just found my first HDD but idk what to do with it... sell it or keep it
If you need free backpacks, barter it to Peacekeeper for an MBSS, otherwise sell it to Therapist
hdd's are kinda meh unless you need early backpacks
i need assistance with getting gas for the out and completing some of my first challenges, i have lost most of my gear and cash any help would be much appreciated
Looking for someone to spectate me in a shoreline red keycard run and help me navigate a bit
Not sure how to path efficiently around rooms in resort
watched a bunch of tutorials but I'm still confused
you guys ever hear this looping sound effect of a small rock falling to the ground in your right ear headphone?
I just found my first HDD but idk what to do with it... sell it or keep it
@shadow blaze HDDs are used for a barter trade needed to compete gunsmith pt1
@shadow blaze HDDs are used for a barter trade needed to compete gunsmith pt1
@cloud rover Thank you
what is a cyclone accumulator battery?
a barter item
is it valuable
SHEEEESH
Hey everyone, i'm wondering if the end game recap works properly? I emptied a full AK mag into a scav player from like 10m and recap says 3hit (I hit & killed an other scav minutes before so i'm pretty sure these 3 hits really are that previous one)
just looking for some help in customs to get some tasks done
@crimson timber i've had it bug my previous hits onto that screen before, the raid before. but its possible ur first shot hit his head and u just kept unloading until u saw him drop
What is the best gun to buy at beginner?
@golden hinge He didnt drop he killed me after taking full mag of AK.
I guess it bugged on the screen.
my styash is full anyone able to tell me what i should sell so i have an idea?
or possible ideas to orginize it
like from level 1 traders? semi auto saiga-9 from skier might work, but it's kinda crap. Otherwise your best bet is sks(hits harder) or aksu(shoots faster).
saiga you'll probably get back with insurance, sks maybe, aksu probably won't
from lvl 1-10 i use a pistol or mp5 with knife trade and aim at heads. after that you have several good and cheap options on flea
Oh, that sounds more like desync Enyx. You were probably already dead server side while you were unloading on him.
my styash is full anyone able to tell me what i should sell so i have an idea?
@normal island check the quest page on the wiki and keep stuff that needs to be found in raid. sell everything else. keep gear for 3-5 raids if you have room. can also ask if you have anything that sells for a lot on flea
This gun is great once you get Peacekeeper LL2 https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Kel-Tec_RFB_7.62x51
can i get any decent ammo for those guns?
the only "decent" ammo at lvl 1 traders is lps but you can only use it with mosin. so just aim for heads
can i get any decent ammo for those guns?
@static creek best would be sks with 7.62 ps, worst would be mp5 or any other 9mm
or mosin yeah
lvl 2 pk has m80 and you can get cheap semi auto's. some of the best ammo early on
ps is still bad. need to shoot heads with it too
π€
level 2 pk is after flea though
lvl 10
before lvl 10 your options for ammo are all bad. best to pick something with low recoil to make shooting heads easier
if you avoid players and assume they will kill you and just need a gun to kill scavs anything works
i like to go after people
also if you find a mp153 or saiga 12 those are good, just shoot legs
i don't loot
scavs don't wear armor like 60% of the time so ammo doesn't matter that much. Your best bet is to avoid players
ok
also dont feel bad about stealing the gear off dead scavs and chucking yours in a bush for insurance
like is this what you meant?
yeah that
thanks
it says it was updated like 6 days ago so should be accurate
stuff with green check marks is what you need to find in raid
rest can be bought
ok appricate it
and the stuff under fence you can ignore if its your first wipe
yeah
is m61 goood ammo
some of the best
if you haven't i would suggest looking at the ammo chart
Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.
All the data displayed below is the produc...
though, its overkill for most things and m62 is better overall imo (though it is tracer)
nothing more fun than a 50 rounder of m62 in a meta fal tho
green laser beams pew pew
5 man with g18c's and green tracer
Nah, ppsh- 71 round tracer mag.
6000 rpm of tracer
night time factory.
ppsh is only 5000 rpm
green tracers are def the most noticable
i gotta give it to the glock squad on that one
for 9mm that thing is bright
How many hours do I have to play this game before I stop jumping at being shot at lmao
hours? none
the player not being a bitch, who knows
if i hear an m700 go off 50m to my left even with 1000 hours i still jump a bit
best thing we can teach you is, if you don't hear the bullet hit something near you, it wasn't meant for you
Well the qualifier was being shot at, not just shooting in general
anybody willing to help me out with some of the beginning quest
@golden hinge That would be one hell of a desync. 0 hit there ?! π
major desync yeah. you should have aimed a bit higher but that many stomach shots might have killed him
for sure lots of hits
Would love to find a group to run raids with here and there. been playing a little before this last wipe and now hoping back in. still getting used the game. if anyone is interested let me know!
Na?
anyone wanna play got a basic knowledge of game and map knowledge
So, Hello people. I started the game about 2 months ago but I am having really hard time progressing. (I dont know if this is a ban reason but,) I am playing in EUW and can someone give me a red rebel to help me or help me get one because I dont know how to get one. Your help would be really appreciated π.
@rain moon nobody will give you a RR for nothin. You can go for woods and kill shurman to get rebel from or from his stash
Or you can trade/buy it
I have 500 k barely
@rain moon find a loot run you like and keep running that
Ok i will try
If you need money - check out reserve/interchange loot run guides
^^^
There is plenty of them on YT
I need the rr for reserves
@rain moon you don't
Dude there is only 1 proper extractions
yes its horrible, you just gotta check your corners
Again, go farm IC, after that gonfarm shurman for RR
Yes ill try that
- poof * red rebel is yours
?
there have been tons of people playing dome recently on reserve so when you do eventually get a rr, watch out
every time i found exit campers in d2 i killed them. once there was a duo of 2 lvl 50+ dudes there . . .
watch general sam's video so you know all the spots to check
How does one do the intro request for mechanic with out dying multiple times?
You have to go to woods, find the letter then exfil, its to unlock jaeger
if you can find somebody who knows the map well they can do it with you so its a fast evac
Take a Propitol, condensed milk, bottle of water and I think a pack of crackers to a map you feel good extracting. Eat the condensed milk and crackers at spawn. Take the Propitol to keep your health up and hide 5 minutes. Then drink the water and make your way to extract. @hexed maple
just 1 propitol?
I did it with one but health and all that has changed a lot. The wiki should be up to date so look there to see if it changed.
ok
Ive found the note many times, its just i keep getting killed by players while I'm running around with no gear and a hatchet
Is it normal that my ADS sensitivity is faster than my normal sensitivity even if theyre at the same setting?
@slender moat find a sherpa or well geared player who is willing to walk through it with you
different sights have different sensitivity too. It is a pain to get it set how you like.
or depending on you spawn wait till that last 10 min of the raid and then just run
@carmine gust i tried with several guns, no scopes, same gear, same result. ADS sens is faster than hipfire...
@hexed maple thank you
np
Is there anyhing to do to help with the dsync ? I just got killed and i heard the gunshot after my death, seems weird
playing on less populated servers is about everything you can do
@quasi hawk All the server i play on are at less than 15 ping and i get 1ms ping to speedtests :/
I also tried manually selecting :/
@narrow gull dampn, it was on woods, can't really do less crowded :/
nanana, i mean selecting a server in launcher
mhm, ty.
Does anyone have a guide about the post raid damage overview screen?
Whats there that is not clear, specifically?
Impacts are shown, type of ammo, it tells you if your limb was blacked out, and also shows food/water status? @proper ginkgo
it tells you what caused your untreated damage
so i just found out that if you bought this game before Jan 2020 you have gifts waiting for you
once i spent literally 10 minutes walking right on top of jager's camp without realizing it for the quest
I was like, huh wait I thought his camp was over here its a tall little shack right and just kept of missing it
so anybody wanna help me kill 15 scavs on woods?
if i have the game closed but i have things crafting will they still craft?
yes
Any tips on cleaning this up? What ammo to sell to trader, what ammo to sell on flea?
Keep the good stuff, sell the mediocre and bad ammo.
sell the lower level ammo
how do i play with peoiple for beginners assistance

anyone got a the ski mask with the eye cut out? thats camo i need it for ragman quest ;-;
whats the fastest rpm gun
iirc Glock 18C
anyone wanna stack factory and help me get some 3M armors? I'm not having any luck. Was in a raid just now and had 2 3m armors on me and some dingus waited till 30 seconds left in the raid to rush me while I was looting
@rocky nacelle has to be FIR so even if someone had a FIR one it wouldnβt count if they gave it to you
@main pendant you can either rush the factory spawn or just be mindful when playing.
I definitely got mine off scavs on maps
ya that isn't working so far lol
either I can't find a single one
or i find it and a rat lord gets me π¦
I wouldn't stress it tbh
Coming from Hunt:Showdown I'm finding the directional audio frustratingly ambiguous.
Is it a good idea to prone while firing when using a molot drum mag? Feels like the recoil is too hard to control at times
Also a huge difference between this game and hunt is the fact that you don't hear things as far away as you do in hunt, since there's so much ambient noise
Can somebody put a AKS-74/AKS-74U PT Lock on flea for me
nahphi, ever used radio headsets during raid?
cuz i can hear from map corner to mid map with em on
I mean I use ears, yeah
anybody down to run some raids? also i would appreciate a mp-133
iF upgrade to top package from standard edition will it reset my account?>
Also a huge difference between this game and hunt is the fact that you don't hear things as far away as you do in hunt, since there's so much ambient noise
@civic drift Its not the distance, its the direction. It's just not good objectively.
yo can someone hook me up with a kit lol, just started playing again and its mad how aids the game is before flea market is even unlocked, cant buy fuck all from traders and i really dont wanna sell my graphics card to therapist lel :/
Just roll SKS
cant do shit with sks though when geared guys are spraying 260 rounds all over the map
You just gotta be more mindful with engagements.
easier said than done
i play on slow crouch the entire game, hiding and shit and still some guy bopps me from 7km away
Im going to die to the 2 man geared team no matter what but the rain of grenades is ridiculous. Just pepper the entire area of possible places. Insane how many grenades get thrown at me.
My pre 10 loadouts were the SKS or whatever decent shit I could pull out from SCAV runs tbh.
was that early game though?
No I bought this game like 3 weeks ago
ah, how long did it take u to kickstart with good gear then?
I mean I still don't take really great things per say. I've stopped using the SKS mostly, but that's definitely because it's not as flexible.
Honestly I was just ratting hard and getting guns to sell
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. The last at least 15 times I've loaded into a raid as PMC, i have gotten one shotted from god knows where, even if i sit in spawn and just lay down in a bush. Someone please tell me what im doing lmao
over time you learn what path's people take and how to avoid players
so you don't get shot
Yeah, it's the unfortunate response. Like, it'll happen regardless, but that's why it's good to basically stick to a single map early.
So you can learn the spawns, the hotzones, etc.
why arent they more then 3 beginners assistance rooms?
go to sherpa hub, it has better ways of getting people to help beginners
?
!sherpahub
I'm planning on building a new PC to play tarkov with. Can someone make me a list 900 and under? Thank you
@slender vapor that's not true lol
anyone help me w an interchange and shoreline quests?
why cant i join any channels?
why cant i join any channels?
@ornate sable i was wondering the same thing, i message the moderators
i cant join anything either
does anyone wanna hop in a vc and help me learn this game
@halcyon karma what are you trying to learn?
i can try
Does anyone know if this barter trade is still active? I'm definitely lvl 2 with Mechanic and I've searched his entire screen. I see you can just buy the receiver with rubles but no trade.
it is
thats weird
Hi everyone, as a new player with all trader 1 and no flea market (level 7), is there a way to get the MP 133 plastic grip for the Gunsmith 1 quest ? i found all the rest in the wild quite the bummer i can't find that one :/
@crimson timber You can find it but its pretty rare. Your best bet is either to barter the piece from mechanic for 2 HDDs or barter for the entire shotgun for some tools and then just put the grip on that.
Yeah the gunsmith quests can be pretty hard pre-flea
any fix for not being able to join channels?
@grizzled mirage I might be dumb here, but the 2 HDD is for the forestock and the entire shotgun trade doesn't have the grip only the forestock and choke right ?
Or is there an other trade with the grip i'm missing
Ah yeah my bad by grip I thought you meant the forestock. Youre correct the only way to find the pistol grip is in raid or to purchase it from another player off the flea market. It does have a chance to spawn anywhere weapon attachments can, but your best bet is to kill scavs that have MP133s, as they can have the pistol grip on their weapon.
@grizzled mirage Ah i see, that'(s what I thought thanks for the time you took to answer ! π
@crimson timber no worries man, if you want some help hunting down scavs just let me know.
It's not the scavs the problem, it's usually the fully greeared ninja that OS me from nowhere π Thanks i'll tell you if the need arises π @grizzled mirage
@low rose why do u need the m4 upper?
i dont need it. i found a wrench and figured i could build an m4 cheaper from ground up by doing the trade. but it probably doesnt matter
im definitely not poor, just stingy lol
i mean your saving about 1 thousand by doing it.
1k dollas, but really traders demand extra payment for a functioning gun over building it yourself, so why not?
when is the dev stream???
i mean your saving about 1 thousand by doing it.
@frigid shard gotcha. Figured I'd give it a shot lol
can someone list an aks-74u PT lock please?
don't rip me off too bad
I just don't got skier L2
imma sell it to fence
cool
np
could anyone show me there money runs it would help me alot
does anyone know if BT ammo for 5.45 is any good?
whats better
if you don't know if BT is good enough or not, it's good enough I think π
whats better
@heavy ginkgo compared to what?
like just a general sense iv got loads of ammo and i dont have any good up to date charts
Ballistics are an important part of Escape from Tarkov. They play a big role in firefights and often determine the outcomes. Choosing the right weapon, ammo and gear is one of the most important parts in coming out on top of fighting.
All the data displayed below is the produc...
more green = better
like ammo is one thing i dont understand in this lol just trying to learn it all lol
I know this ain't looking for game, but if anyone US east/EU is down to help me with a couple quests on customs/kill scavs on woods, would be sweet:)
@heavy ginkgo click the list on the side for the ammo type you want
https://tarkov-tools.com/ammo
Visualization of all ammo types in Escape from Tarkov, along with maps and other great tools
should I have binaural sound enabled?
If i want to sell something to a mate, is it possible to spawm naked together, he drops me the money, i put it in my alpha container and then disconnect ?
does anyone know if BT ammo for 5.45 is any good?
@heavy ginkgo BT is the absolute baseline you should use for 5.45. The only "better" ammo types are BS, and 7N39.
!s
@full inlet yes
i can't join any servers all of a sudden they all have this padlock symbol what do?
makes sense, thanks!

@tardy root
@worldly oasis
Its a discord issue, on there backend
we just gotta wait till they figure it out
best ammo for killing 3 pmcs with bolty in 1 raid?
this is my first wipe and i need some roubles, can anyone give me tips?
ive played for a bit but lost so much stuff, now i only have one kit and 30K roubles
ive played for a bit but lost so much stuff, now i only have one kit and 30K roubles
@cold hamlet do scav runs and survive π
reserve scav is popular, I'd just go customs but I mainly play customs anyway lol
Scav reserve is pretty viable but it's also a real hell map to learn
Customs is probably a lot easier to not get waxed on
i get waxed in custom
If you wanna go scav reserve, be prepared to meet 10 other player scavs as well
do fuel tanks still refill if you extract with them from a raid?
you cannot refill empty fuel tanks
Okay thanks
anyone want to help me run customs, I need to goto dorms and get golden zibbo
NACentral, lvl 23, semi good gear.
LVL 3 need help
what do i do with empty fuel tanks
i just did my pmc raid and got fuel and put it in my gamma and it says i didnt find it in raid any reason why?
did you die
yes
any items in gamma lose FIR when you die
whats a good way to level up skiers money, like just buy toz shotguns and sell them back or?
what do you think about playing woods solo
lmao same
gusy how to find the extraction point
like can i just wait till timer runs out and get extracted
cus im very new and idk wheres the ectrct
gimme a moment
in ur hideout what can you use to fuel ur genarator?
I can't figure out how to find the extraction either
I keep hitting compass button but nothing is coming up
ok
i swear im dying everytimei go for a raid
can anyone like carry me
i havent gotten to extraction once
reeeee
what map u running?
factory
why
i used to run customs at the start
lmao i lopst almost everything
when do you think they will fix the bug because I can't join any channels
now i switched to interchange and i got 100% survival rate so far like 6 runs
so i should custom first
hmmm
i would recommend you look up some videos about interchange tbh. I used to play customs, now i hate customs because ive realized its tiny with a ton of chokepoints. I ran into geared out PMCs every raid. Now i switched to interchange and i haven't seen a single PMC, you just have to run the back area of the store and use a headset to avoid any PMCs you might hear somewhere nearby
ooooo ok thanks
all the fighting usually stays in the middle area of the store where killa is etc. but the back storage rooms hardly ever see any action from what i've seen so far and you can get some decent loot if you know where weapon crates are in that area, and the metal shelves can contain screwdrivers, hand drills and some other stuff. If you feel like that's not enough and feel a bit ballsy, there's an area on the very left of the store that contains some electronics but from what i hear its a bit more dangerous. \
wait one, im gonna find the video i used to see whats crackin on the interchange map π also, emercom checkpoint extract, always available, easy to locate and i haven't died a single time going there yet. Just some scavs behind the store sometimes, not that big of a deal
Just like in the real world, financial stability can sometimes be tricky to find in #EscapeFromTarkov ; thankfully, there are plenty of ways to make a good profit and in this video I'll be giving you some tips on how to make a nice profit while playing Interchange, one of my f...
i think this the one
Interchange harder to survive than labs :)
@bold kernel not really, i've yet to meet a PMC outside the central areas of the store or the two massive stores on the sides. it boils down to knowing where not go to not get killed
and tbh i think it's much better than any other option out there. Reserve = complicated spawns and a lot of hot zones if you don't have the ice pick and paracord combo, Woods = god knows how many times i died to some camping sniper, the map is plagued. Customs = tiny, clamped map, you're bound to run into trouble. Shoreline i haven't tested yet, but i don't have good memories with it from back in the day ._. and of course the factory meat grinder, which is now full of KS23 with flash rounds. factory raids for newbies right now are pretty much rng.
Need help building a fat nest egg in tarkov
Somehow made it to about 5mil but wisely blew it all on hideout upgrades and now I have just awful luck getting money
Don't even know how I got that near 5mil
why is every channel locked for me
Discord is having issues
can someone help me do tasks and if so join 2 man squad 13
i got this gun from a raid i just done its worth 100k to a trader so i was wondering if i should keep it or sell it?
put a foregrip on in and then test in in the shooting range
How do i mod and put attachments on weapons?
you have to have the workbench unlocked in your hideout
...
let's you load into labs once
Oh cool
and worth big moners
I killed this guy with a good gear set and found on
That was my first successful run lol
its worth over a mill i think rn
WHAT
anyone up to hop in a vc and help me learn this game
200k actually
I dont think so how do i check
I should prob just sell it lol
lab's has the sweatiest sweats, you'd just die in a min tops
the loot
the most rare spawns of any map, tons of med spawns(with stimulants), raiders with decent gear everywhere
@narrow gull Can you look at paracord for me. Im not lvl 10 yet.
anyone up to hop in a vc and help me learn this game
Damn dude. I need to get flee market.
HOLY SHIT I ESCAPED WITH THE LAB CARD
Ok
What are the chances
Of spawning as scav
With a card
Same. My scav spawned with it as well
Yea i was just looting like normal i didnt know it was worth 200K
Im not leveled enough
Yes
Okie
You can sell it to a dealer for like 60K or wait and sell it on flee for 200K
i assume you mean this one
can't find it Β―_(γ)_/Β―
whats the best helmet to run on shoreline with killa armour
none
anyone up to hop in a vc and help me learn this game
I legit just saw the card and ran tf out lmao
@valid parrot is it found in raid?
does it have the tick in the corner
did you get a run through basically is all I mean π
means it's FIR and you can sell it on the flea
Oh cool
Now i have to hit lvl 10 lol
With the flea
Is there a supply and demand thing? Like the csgo marketplace
Do things drop and rise in price
there's supply and demand, and then there's people asking ridiculous prices because some items come from higher level traders
i mean you can't sell something you bought from a trader on the flea
but prices on some items are inflated af
whats the best helmet to run on shoreline with killa armour
@sacred vapor Altyn lol
Do things drop and rise in price
@valid parrot a lot. Like for example a 40-50k item can drop down to 20k because people keep trying to get their items sold fast so they list it at a lower price than the rest causing the price to go down a lot
Oh ight
Ohhh cool
Btw im not sure if this is the right way
But since im broke and only have like 200k
@halcyon karma go to #pvp-lfg channel and see if anyone can help you out, good luck in Tarkov
Im just doing solo runs with a pistol
But since im broke and only have like 200k
@valid parrot pistol run on reserve bro
Pistol run on the map reserve
Reserve is the best money making map
Well 2nd best
1st being labs
imagine recommending someone new to play reserve(chads say hello)
??
Shoving random things up your rear gets you loads of ammo, even if you're level 1.
if you're experienced
Got a MGT? Free 40k. Got a radio? 80k.
Got an Array? drop everything from your pocket and shove it up your rear.
An array is 80k to traders and 600k on the flea.
Even without FIR status, it's useful for barters.
I guess that's a bit later in game though, not exactly for noobs.
if you're experienced
@narrow gull the only reason I know reserve is because I went into an offline raid, loaded up pestily's guide for the map, and followed him in the offline raid
@quasi hawk if you get a non-fir AESA you might as well keep it for solar power
If you're watching youtube videos, you're already sufficiently experienced to rat on Reserve.
Exactly
Drop down room, tech room with all the loose tech, intel spawns all over the place.
You can easily rat out 1m+ roubles out of there.
assuming you completed the run and extracted
If you survive, everyone and their mothers rushes that room and King building
Shorelines also a pretty good map to make a fuckton of money on
Very hard to survive on the resort tho
Reserve has a much higher density, Shorelines is a lot of walking.
Well reserve just has loot all over the map
Shoreline is just the resort
But if you got the keys
And its a dead server
You can make well over 3mil
I'd say Reserve is more consistent though.
But, yes. Shoreline does have a higher potential if you're lucky.
i prefer interchange for loot... less stressful than reserve
if i play reserve i farm raiders
hey im new to tarkov is there anyone willing to like form a group and teach me the game and shit @everyone
Bruh
iv never found the exits on that map
Interchange?
yes
Im gonna be honest. I bought this game and have like no clue what it is
i mean i think i get it
i see
Then try not to die
thats it?
The whole game revolves around risk/reward
i often die bc im brain ded sometimes
Same lol
all of them say hard difficulty or something
custom is the best for beginning
What map did you do?
I need help touring interchange for ragman and/or playing woods and killing scavs. NA EST. ping or dm
go accept your two initial quests from Prapor and Therapist
and then go to Customs to do them
who and who? There are quests? Im so confused now
wait
wait
i think i have found it
.
honestly, the timers are so confusing. Could someone ELI5? I spawn in. 46 minutes on the timer, and the north barracks RB-VO room is already open and looted. Is that a latespawn? How do i tell if it's a latespawn? I thought the raids lasted 45 minutes but since there's 46 minutes left is it 60 minutes? Does that mean i've never got into a raid early?
i see, so maps have different raid durations. Thanks. I thought it was a set value for every raid regardless of the map
@random hamlet you new wher you from and age i can help you whit the start of the game
@delicate gazelle evry map got a fixs time intercange is 45min, and if you get in at like 44.30 you got in late you cant get in befor that
as a scave you span in when the aiscaves spawn in mostly 3* a raid interchage 2min afhtere start 30/35min left and 12/15min left
but mostly last 12min
In solo scav runs you mostly spawn around 25+ min left on interchange 35min from time to time, with group scavs you spawn in 90% of the time with 13min left
So I founds an slock in a weapons box. Idk what it is but mechanic sells it for a bItcoin, so does that mean I should sell it to someone, sell it on the flea or just keep it?
a what ?
lol if you need to pay a bitcoin to ragman its wort 200k
you mean Wilcox Skull lock ?
i got mecanick lvl 4 i dont see it
yeah. Its called an SLock when you aren't inspecting it
12k on the market
why cant i join any voice channels
in beginner you need to be dragd in
its the termal on it thats that mutsh or is it a night vision scope
you got the stock helmed thats wort 12k
what rooms you trying to get in villan

@narrow gull thanks a ton man
wierd, why do people need it?
gunsmith quests
like what quest? i don't think i ever needed them
part 4 i think
it's got like 1 more ergonomics
and it's the build on the wiki LUL
i see it
can someone help me learn interchange?
what are you supposed to do when you run out of money, have no guns, and can't even extract with scav run
keep scav running until eventually it works
well considering I've never made it out alive I don't see that happening anytime soon then
this 20min timer is such a joke
yeah it can be annoying, try running naked looking for loot with pmc, you dont even have to heal, just try to find some shit and either die or extract
try to do that while your scav is on cool down
is the melee strong in this game?
no
killed a man witha crowbar once
@granite heath you can also run offline raids to get used to it
died later to blood loss from bullet holes
I don't even have a crowbar
learn where scavs spawn and roam for starters, work on one map
crowbar is the lowest damage melee in the game
probably beats fists I'd imagine
Hello! just got eft and i have no idea what im doing or where to start
aight
i have done a few scav runs on customs and have died
what are you supposed to do when you run out of money, have no guns, and can't even extract with scav run
@granite heath extract with scav run
Hello! just got eft and i have no idea what im doing or where to start
@crimson sigil welcome to pure hell
i guess you have come to the right place
in the beginning its a shithole
@frosty compass I can't extract with scav run either. I wait 20mins to die within 5
i tried PMC and i found a few things and i realized that i was in offline mode
yeahπ
bruh
@frosty compass I can't extract with scav run either. I wait 20mins to die within 5
@granite heath play less aggressively, learn the map more, be more desperate to not die
half the time you'll spawn around 25 mins on customs and half/most the players are already gone
that's why scav runs are way easier
if you wanna make money quick, consider scaving on interchange
if scav runs are supposed to easy then there's no hope for me
do scopes exist in this game? I've yet to see one
yes
find or buy
and you can't access the shop until lvl 5 can you
yeah probably
but as you level up and do quests traders will sell you more stuff
like scopes
i had my first survived scav run... i was in raid for a total of 8 min but at least i didnt die
it'd be a lot easier
@granite heath ak iron sights are fine, pistol sights are enough to kill scav with an ak. circle of life
@crimson sigil congrats
good job you make some money?
good start
can anyone play with me and help me learn maps
what servers are you on?
NA
uhh yeah that could work give me 10 minutes
ok.

@drifting flare @radiant garnet @bold kernel dm me im new too
do i have to pay to you guys to show me some things that I am interested in?
no?
Got the beta container, what do i do with my old alpha one ?
i dont have space and i dont need it for anything, why would i keep it ?
ragman gives me 230k for it
go for it
looking for a group to run with, anyone down?
hey guys i was wondering if anyone could supply me with some info? I am having trouble finding info on the difference between the comtacts
Im just wondering what the difference between them is and what the meta "best" set is. price on flea market says Razor are the best
hey guys i was wondering if anyone could supply me with some info? I am having trouble finding info on the difference between the comtacts
@dawn quest headphones you mean
?
yus
differences are minimal, I don't even question which ones I put on
@bold kernel im down
I was using sowrdin for a bit..then moved onto the ones that attach to the helmet but i am having super trouble determining the difference. other than the gs12 ones being horrible
Except the GSSh I agree. Those make your own steps way too loud to hear anything else IMO
honestly i liek the razors the most only cos the look lol. so im trying to find a legit reason as to why i should buy them over the cheaper ones
They are better on Reserve than most because they have the alarm sound come through lower IMO
wait really? for the razors or all?
Razors.
thats super cool i did not know this
Just how I feel running them. YMMV of course
thanks I will try that out!
Yeah LMK what you think
why cant i join a vc?
why cant i join a vc?
@rapid shard discord is potato recently, restart
Yeah I have seen a few poeople saying they cant tonight.
is beta container trade worth it?
It's pretty expensive. I would probably push Epsilon instead but if you feel it will take you forever to get that then probably if you have a non FIR ledx.
ty ty π
anyone else new want to duo? im 21
what is the value of bitcoin to therapist currently
Think it was like 211K earlier tonight when I sold my last batch
okay thanks
If you are ready to suffer go ahead and buy it
Yes
yes and it whows on flea market for that item
so i am level 15 right now and i have been doing raids with standard aks and notr being able to control the recoil when is the right level to start using modded weapons with less recoil and also on a budget because i only have 1.5 mill
get the workbench to at least lvl 1 then you can preview mods. You should be good now just start basic. Try to stick to dealer unlocked parts as much as possible because flea prices are poison. I like a basic red dot and a little recoil control for an AK.
doubletap single fire is your best bet to control recoil early on
and running offline raids and spraying some mags until u feel the recoil
Crouching/prone helps recoil more than any mod can, Tarkov rewards ambushing quite well.
did anyone have trouble joining a voice channel? I dont know why im locked out???
stimmy it might be full
@toxic pine Its a crappy little error. I had to restart my PC because restarting discord did not fix it
fixed it, just had to force quit it through task maanger
any newb custom runs?
@granite heath you still playing?
nope I think I'm kinda done with this game
I'm now completely out of guns and can't even scav extract
reset acc
so there's like nothing I can do...I'm just stuck
or hatchet run
reset acc
it resets your account to when you started
no cap?
oh so the ak74u?
so you lose all your progress but you get starter shit back
its not an easy game you just gotta play
I don't care about progress. I'm level 3 with 1 lifetime extract and that was only because I was lost in my first ever game and happened to stumble upon an extract
I've never had an extract when I've purposely been meaning to get to one
I have them pulled up but they don't seem to be accurate
I get these weird names that aren't even listed on the maps
@granite heath yo if your down to reset im down to clown
do scav runs and go straight for exit and its a free kit
scavs have different exits than pmcs btw
I might reset later but I'm getting off. I'm tired of dying. I've been playing for like an hour and a half now with no progress
dont blame you
different extracts??
i fee ya man
its not easy but if you keep playing it gets better
so the maps don't have all of them listed?
i have been using mapGuinee
don't know that one. I'll look it up
if you play a pmc run it wont tell you the scav exits but if you play a scav run it will say unique extracts only scavs can use
and it seems pretty good
I'm talking about the maps I'm looking at. Maps I google. Do those have all the listed extracts?
yes
yea!
oh
usually
basically, you are given certain extracts each run and can only use those
I knew that part, I just can't get to them
i figured out yesterday that you can double tap "O"
lol yea it says exits and time left
a good thing to do is to go in settings and read the keybinds
and you can figure out some stuff
yeah I knew that double tap O
again, just can't get there. I die within about 5-10mins every run
hell I tried factory and didn't even last but maybe 2mins max if that
factory is not good for new players
do customs and learn it cos thats where all the early quests are
anybody want to do the bronze pocketwatch quest with me?
alright then. Well I'll try it later I guess maybe
i dont know what that is but im willing to try
what vc?
2 man squad 7
what?
but im a total newb
oh I found it
3 man squad 10
some other guy is gonna help aswell
lemme restart discord
me neither
i dm'ed you
not going to even attempt to join you but i wanted to know how you use the VC?
all of them are locked for me
just
can you penetrate doors in tarkov?
i just did that and they are still locked
the voice chats arent locked its server sided
come on
I have a quest to do and i have the keys and know where it is but keep dying could somebody do it with me so that i dont die
What quest and on what map?
Customs the skier quest for the classified documents and prapour quest for the bronze pocket watch, they are right next to each other
I am EU
For the bronze watch you have to go to construction site
and its inside of the truck door
salmaan do them on night time with only like a hatchet
its rly easy on n ight time
okay
night*
besides sniper scav i dont see that many players near construction
agreed
thanks
Ive gotten killed by scavs twice
I mean u could join a customs LFG voice chat and try to find someone who could help you with the quests π
anyone playing woods? I'm trynna get Jaeger but not too familiar with the map yet
@shadow venture depends on what you like its hard but rewarding but the game does not teach you anything so its a learning curve
i like FPS's like that but I'm not sure bcs I would play mostly solo
in case i wont like tarkov is it possible to refund it?
Donβt think so
Truthfully you wonβt like it for the first few days
Youβll get beaten down and youβll have low level traders and no flea market
BUT once you get past that is when the gun begins.. grinding tasks, doing big loot runs, etc
yeah probably it will be a game for me which i will return to it once per some time
can someone help me getting the scavs on wood done?
anyone got a good solo reserve guide?
All my friends are offline so i can only solo lol
@shadow venture I'm danish and tarkov has 25% tax on it... So its 25% more than the price shown on the website xd... only found out when i went to pay for it
Ye in poland its 23%
Good Lord...
Heh, I sure love paying taxes
@bold kernel learn the bottom right hand corner of the map first. Then work your way top left as you learn.
Top left is where the bigger buildings are.
Alright
The buildings across from train station spawn raiders... So I farm the shit out of them.
Yee, Gonna stay a bit away from raiders until i get a bit more confident in my pvp/pve skills
@shadow venture the game is amazing, and I prefer playing solo. But if you don't have patience, and are looking for a fast paced game, then Tarkov is not for you.
@drifting jolt I have ants in my pants but I seem to do just fine for myself, but I do agree that this game can be very unforgiving.
You die just like every other game, but in Tarkov you actually lose things. Some people don't do well with losing shit.
Can anyone watch the live streams here in discord? Or is that frowned upon?
i mean, i think there are specific channels where you can stream and people can join and watch
Im pretty new, I know how to do some very basic things. Can anyone help me get better
