@jagged night https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Woods
i think stashes are where the money is at now
yeah guess so. just sucks xD
its not worth bringing in good gear in my opinion
bringing anything past a korund, ulach and mdr 556 just seems too expensive cuz you wont make it back in 1 raid most likely
yeah i used to make my money from tetriz and gpu. guess i cant do that anymore
exactly
i either bring a stock m1a or 5-7 plus some shit tier 4 and hope to make some money
but ig if youre rich and want to pvp then whatever
i personally find factory to be the best for pvp
so sad. ive been doing IC non stop ever since latest patch came out and all ive found is 2 tetriz.
im just doing IC for pvp. take an sks and try kill some chad, grap their gear and kill some more. i usually make out with some good gear, but im not gonna bring anything out of my own gear
right? ive rushed techlight at least 10 times in the past week with no one there and i find nothing
thats how i feel rn
even with a perfect spawn so you are gonna be the first in texho and rasmussen even techlight, theres nothing except dvd's ...
either im really unlucky or they ninja nerfed it. cus i dont see anything in patch notes
you mean those backpacks that are lying around which you can loot?
yes the black/red ones
ill try that
@barren canyon there are 5 good spots to find tetrises graphikcards and som high end items (150-250k)but there are like 50 placec you can fide items that are 20/50k a slot even 100k
up to 5 guns spawn on kibas walls in a single raid
Personally I have seen 2 ak74s + m4a1 + mp7a2 + MPX on Kibas walls at the same time
does mantis,emercom medical & idea medical storage have ledx spawns. i seen a video where they showed they spawn there but ive never seen a single spawn yet
Idea office also has Tertris and GPu spawnz
only ultra and emercom have ledx spawns
farm scavs
kill some scavs and survive for big xp and do task
@pseudo sandal it took me about 60 hours to get lvl 10
Did you find it yet? I can help you if not.
Umm. Should I prioritize increasing pvp skills or learning some map for money runs?
i would say learn some map for money runs
if you have big money you can bring big gun for better pvp e.e
just learn eathere a computer run on interchange or learn som building spawns on custom eithere of them you can make 300/500k a run decently safez
Maybe you can show me (for example by drawing on map) what +/- route.I shoukd take?
anyone willing to drop me a Plastic pistol grip for MP-133/153 😛
@ionic oasis i can fence a bunch of parts for your quests if you want
anyone want to 5 man a delivery from the past run?
@bold kernel i can try and sketch out my very own patented "interchange rat run" that ive been using for a while to grab some cash, and send it to you
Oh. That would be cool thank you
cool, just gimme a sec
anybody down for a newguy run? I maybe have 6 runs under my belt and could use the help
yo I am a lvl 6 tryna run factory solo does anyone have tips on the gear i should run?
tip: dont run factory yet
why
factory is for da memes
not for learning how the real game is
but also ignore the level 10
looking to help out some dope new players, NA
would love the help if possible!
If anyone can help me learn the game dm me please
i bought the game last night i kill people i jus need to know the basics
anyone wanna do a reserve run or customs? if anyone has machinery key on customs i need it for the bronze pocket watch quest. LV6
@rain verge IM LVL 6 TOO
ayyyy yo
AND I NEED THE KEY
2nd or 3rd story building??

3d

hbu
it about if u want the stuff he sell or if ur ggoing after kappa
rq question is this a good setup for lvl6?
bring more ammo and put it in alpha maybe
ok
maybe more meds but not sure what's open to you this early
The gas station in Shoreline, is it always on fire?
Is this better
repair ur armor, put ai2, bandage, bullets in container
you don't need cms
if you have a mbss backpack, take that instead, nobody will loot it ever
insure all your shit
@lapis moat
i don't play shoreline but people say it's fine
if you avoid populated areas it's apparently chill
yea thats what i normaly do
most populated place i go is the main road next to the shoreline
but normaly to exfil
how many tasks i gotta do for prapor to get to the thicc weapons case one?
wiki should tell you
yo is wipe tomorrow
no
today
Wdym wipe was yesterday
o shit, you were one of the ones who got wiped? rip your loot bruh
get max level with all traders so level 40
is there any other items to hold keys aside from the keyholder
looking for anyone to run factory or customs with, i keep losing roubles and gear every raid it seems like im just digging myself deeper into a hole
anyone wanna teach me how to play?
Wait, so does the quest just randomly appear once your level 40?
he mean that u need to max all traders and level 40 is like the level ull be when u do
oh
im talking about the quesstline like what one do i follow so i dont do tttasks and waste my time if i dont NEED to do them to get to tthe task to get the case
U NEED TO MAX ALL TRADERS LMFAO
so basically u have to do al lthe quest
no i have them all maxed technically just not lvl 40 lol
its in wiki
wiki says level 35 to start the quest
you need to be level 40 and have enough rep for max level. most quests unlock one after another so just keep doing them until your rep is high enough. the wiki tells you how much you need
I'm ready to take noobs to labs, hop in
Ive been trying to do punisher part 4 for 8 months, can anybody help me

Hey, my friend downloaded the game and when it finished his launcher still just says install. Any fixes?
looking to help some super cool new players, NA coom let me give you the roubles
if anyone needs help making roubles, i can give some fool proof tips to be rich
yess please@bold kernel
@tulip pecan learn the location of interchange and customs hidden caches. Learning these locations will help you make a lot of money as there are alot of valuables in these containers
all of these caches are on the outskirts of the map so you will seldom run into players
night raids are especially effective
ive done about 8 raids in a row as a scav on customs at night and have made around 3 mil.
whaaat
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Buried_barrel_cache https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ground_cache @tulip pecan
look at the loot tables first and the locations
also avoid players as much as possible
loot tables?
what the stashes can contain
you want to plan your route according to where you spawn
but on average you can get 10 plus other buildings and loot spawns on customs
and on interchange you can easily get 12 on average
well id better get to grinding
@tulip pecan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC3r65dd5og https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UEE4Z1jfbU
In this video you will find locations of all the hidden stashes on Interchange. I grouped them into routes I often use, usually when I exit the map. There is also minimap and player marker to help you find those caches in game.
TOPICS
0:00 Power Station
0:26 Outside IDEA
1:22 Railway Exfil Route
2:28 Mid Road to Emercom Route
MAY INTEREST ...
Jaeger's Hidden Stashes are a great way to find any item in the game but have you ever wondered where all of the Hidden Stashes are on Customs? Well look no more! I stream 5 days a week on twitch at https://twitch.tv/vox_e
Twitter: https://twitter.com/TwitchVoX_E
============================...
once you learned these routes YOU CANNOT go broke
ive made 23 mil in a week by doing this. played about 20 hours or so
and this is including all of my losses
i dont have the flea yet so should i sell the stuff to the traders?
i think the site is down
Can someone help me unlock Jaeger?
the woods quest?
Yeah where you find his docs
what is the name of it again?
oh yeah, introduction
i'll give it a shot. woods is my home
Im new to this game would anyone help to assist me
@wicked zodiac yo did you get the quest done yet?
@tulip pecan Yeah i just did it, thank you tho

Oh, theres more people willing to help im sure

@ionic iris me
what ya need?
Could you help me get rubles there’s a problem tho
gonna need to be more specific
@ionic iris i sent a dm
Quickest way to hit level 10?
Try some quests for traders, not the most fun but they will get you there
Labs raider farming
Good luck with getting keycard pre lvl 10
I feel like shooting legs is not plausible for me, how do you guys even do it 😦
I am trying to tbh, I think its more a problem of playstyle.
Like leg meta?
If so, some weapons are a lot more effective, RIP ammo is pretty effective, whether you use pistol caliber or 12 gauge
should I rat around if I go for the legs
You gotta get them when they’re caught up with something, so they don’t have enough reaction time
I just try and go for face/ headshots
Gotta be a little more patient, but saves ammo, and a little less risk
what map do you like most?
I need help with bunker part two. NA EST. DM or ping
Hey guys what should I do with (<10) dog tags?
I want to keep the higher level ones for a Scav Box I think you can buy one with 100 or 150
Scav box is 750K on flea most of the time. I don't think it is worth saving all those tags.
weren't tags like 11k?
You'd get more out of selling 100 tags than collecting it for a scav box.
@carmine gust @severe flame @mellow matrix It's like 360 roubles per level or some shit
390.. somewhere in there
@junior sentinel shotguns are underrated, and easily slaughter scavs
yes
8.5 magnum buck is great against PMCs as well...
The AP20 slugs are good too, but i rather like the buckshot
they have hellofa hit detection
yeah, it's a usual one tap to the chest/back of 97% of any scav you run in to
Does anyone have a min to help me with my inventory I just started recently and i'm not 100% sure what to keep
Sell all barter items to therapist and gun parts to mechanic
I mean as far as keeping quest items and stuff for hideout
What game version do you have
Standard
If you have eod keep it but anything below that don't keep it unless you have a scav junk box
Keep quest items but sell hideout items on flea market
Dont have flea market
Ok well keep them until you do
Mkay thats kinda what i'm saying my inv in full of shit i think i need
and i'm like 10k xp away from market
I need a watch or something
Task items are generally easy to find
i found the key and i've gone thru dorms like 10 times cant find shit
yea
Okay
You have to extract after you find the water or it doesn't count
I also have to find a pocket watch
Oh ok you need machinery key for that
Its inside of construction area on tarkov next to ruaf gate
Its a tanker
If you need a watch i can hop on and help you out ill be home in like 25m
That'd be cool PM me when ur ready
Alright 👍
does reshala spawn time right away or theres a time
hes either on the map or not, i think
So if he's in that raid, he'll spawn at start
Can someone buy a AKS-74/AKS-74U PT Lock from Skier LL2 and put it on the flea market for me? I'm trying to do weapon smith 2 but there isnt any on sale...
@summer blaze you cant sell items on flea that you buy from dealers
i dont have skier ll2
i get that
the items you buy from dealers cannot be sold on flea
nvm i get u now
my bad
the gunsmith quests arent going anywhere
dont even worry about those in particular until you level your dealers a bunch
buy my storage sure is x'D
so do bosses kill player scavs without provoking them? i was on woods running around as a scav and got shot by sthurman while running to cabins
What part of the map of customs does the welcome to tarkov bus spawn
@hushed cradle yeah, all bosses kill scavs
that makes more sense
even AI scavs
i like got a little annoyed thinking it was a regular scav that shot me because i had just spawned
i typically stay close to AI scavs since they point out PMCs
kinda makes sense why there we so many dead PMCs around
ahh the classic headeyes buckshot scav
new players if you wanna make money, night time customs stash runs are your friend
around 400k in this raid and i made another 500k just now
just killed Killa in under 60 seconds... never had to fire a shot...
grenading his spawns is awesome lol
Got killed by a rat for the first time i love it
ahaha just trying to extract coz i killed 3 snipers on woods but i got 3 blacked out limbs
Where's a good place to get gas analyzers on interchange
he probs meant fence it
it's not much but it's honest work
Does anyone know how to get into the upper room in the shack on customs, by the trailer park workers shack scav extract? there's loot according to map, but it just says breach
on the door
@bold kernel bro i just did it for the first time just straight up walked on top of shipping 2 story. Nabbed a motor and red gunpowder and a fuel on the way out lmao
@frosty compass i think you need a key for that one
the interactive map don't have a key on it, which is weird
ah, it's portable cabin key apparently
three jackets right next to spawn isn't that bad tbh, might get that one
Can anyone help me with the game every time i load it up it would load up with out the options to go on you character or play
verify install
How do I do that sorry I’m kinda new to pc still
Thank you @stone moss and @frosty compass
is anyone able to help me with some tasks?
@warm jolt i can help you
god im getting shit on
Can anyone help me make some money?
it really isnt
u hella rich
for Level 12 yea
really though
lvl 12 with over a mill is good imo
i see youtubers bringing in kitted M4s
You can spam scav runs and in an hour if you're ass you'll have a mil
so i get worried
when ur lvl 12 u should have at least 10 mil so ur doing pretty poorly
bruh dont compare yourself to other people
yeah i shouldnt to be honest
@bold kernel stop the cap
://
literally better to just set your on goal
cap? as in baseball cap?
this kid is a bad troll
fucking roll with it
yeah ii can tell
spend what u want
everyones got their own playstyle just spend whatever amount ya want also try not to use more then idk 4 emojis in one message
👍
good goal
😄

tax fraud in tarkov
hello im a lil nubbin and i need some tips at where to go what to get and what to buy
what lvl are you optic?
2 :P
how much money u have?
yeah
about 232k rubles 66 euro
Just do quests.
generally what you want to spend is reflected on how much you get from a raid, so if you spend alot of money on gear and ammo, you might not even make back the money you just spent
and being low level means you should bring shit gear
less of an impact if you die
id suggest any armor with a stock sks with ps
you should also know what to loot and what not to
if you can level up peacekeeper to lvl 2 he sells very good rounds
M80
Put those in a vepr hunter
thats what i do
ive gone on many a scav run and gotten shot a hell of a lot before the first 10 minutes were up on coustoms woods interchange and reserve
learn 1 map
already have, customs
good good
when youre playing as a scav, try not to shoot other scavs as generally they just become and obstacle for you and you can make them follow you or push an enemy by giving them hand signals
run dorms down south toward that area evac at smugglers boat if available
double tap Y and youll get a drop down menu
Thank you
i just need a person who knows what they are doing to take me through some stuff

@eternal sapphire Sherpahub is a great source to learning a map, either independently or under the guide of a Sherpa
!sherpahub
could anyone help me out im kinda new to the game and im very poor
if nobody picks up yours, yes
im new to the game im only level 6 can someone help me
I am new to the game. Would anyone be willing to help me learn?
@scarlet pollen what u tryna learn
anything
i know next to nothing
I know i should do scav runs when i can and thats about it
What maps u wanna do / what playstyle are you interested in
idk
Customs for early quests and interchange or reserve for loot is my standard advice for what it is worth. Think it was from a Pestily VOD or something when I was starting out.
Customs loot is better now though so that may be all you need your first few days
any new players wanna do some runs? i can bring in gear, help do quests, explain the game, doesn't matter to me
just here for a good time
I'm EU can someone teach me labs? I know it somewhat but i still have darkspots

It is always a good day to rat.
@bold kernel do you want money or action out of the game? If you want to have fun go factory with a toz :) I do it all the time to kill some boredom, and it’s like 15k rubles for a toz with a sight, or do you want millions of rubles, if so go learn stashes on customs or something
Labs raider farming, level 10 in 2-3 games.
I only have one labs card though
grind quests then
Well, pray to RNGesus that you don't get Head, Eyes'd within 10 seconds of your raid.
can you call and help me?
labs raider farming is a lot more tedious than reserve farming
Find a box of SNB rounds somewhere, they're pretty common spawns. Go hunt Killa with a mosin.
or can someone
if hes new hes not gonna kill anyone with a mosin
Labs is the fastest way to spawn raiders if you get the garage extracts.
Could go Reserve if someone teaches him the way of abusing corners on raiders
Well, he'll probably die to raiders on labs too.
a classic
So can one of you call me and help me out?
Doesn't he have 70 head HP? If you load the wrong ammo that's a 2-tap.
ye
We're all fake people here, we're just very sophisticated AI pretending to be people. We don't have a voice.

lmao
I also like absorbing oxygen through my lungs, breathing is an activity I also participate in, fellow human.
indeed, just the other day I was consuming food for my body to use as energy
Try the Sherpa channel, they're a bit more active there.
Or just read the #sherpa-info channel.
thank you @quasi hawk
The Sherpa hub has a lot more active veterans in there.
There are many humans in the Sherpa hub!

lf for people to help me to do task im level 6
how do you do gunsmith part 2?
Cause i did what the wiki told me and it isnt working
Fold the stock
yes
what i did when it didnt work for me was disassembling it and then assembling it again
quick question, if i repair an altyn face shield, will it fix the big ass hole in it?
might or might not depending on how much a dealer can repair it
its 500 roubles to repair at mechanic so ill just do that and hope. the hole is only at the bottom so i can mostly see
i forgot how the repairing system works in this that made it less durable
my dumb ass
definitely did not fix the hole either
@uneven niche pretty sure u need the repair the face sheild as well
Some shield have attachments so u might need to inspect it if the attachment is broken @uneven niche
Need some help with the delivery from the past quest if anyone is available to help me out
@forest shoal It's best to find a group so you dont die on factory planting the item
Joining any of the Factory 5 channels usually works.
They're the kind of people that are farming scavs for hours.
Mkay thanks could also use help with the extortionist quest i just recently got into this game and still don't really know where i'm going outside of customs and factory
From begginer hideout ( with styff, i don't have to have ll2 tradors ) which crafts are best? I'm doimg 5xfuze+5x40mmVog->8xVog25
And
PSU+screwdriver->8xCapacitors
hey im looking for some people to play with that ain't gonna get angry at me for asking some questions and not really knowing what im doing
Not now sorry. But tommorow for sure
how hard is it to effectively farm killa with minimal itnerchange map experience
i have an idea of the routes, jsust not familiar with interchanges flow
@rare fractal you need to learn his spawns, how to kill him and how to get out quick especially when other players come to try to take your loot
you only have about 5 minutes maximum to kill him if he spawns usually, that's if nobody is rushing to kill him
ive got his spawns down, except the top floor and when he's roaming. killing him hopeufflly is a crisp headshot with m61 and a hunter, getting out id use backpacless route
he doesn't spawn top floor, he runs up there if he aggros on a player up there
or occasionally he'll aggro on someone on the bottom floor then run up to the top afterwards
@rare fractal its not hard its just the spawn rate makes farming him so slow, there are better ways to make money if thats what you're after
im a newer player and this seemed like a nice way to develop some sort of skillset in eft haha
mm okay then id suggest a 308 mdr so you can take on players and popping an sj6 as well
hunter is a bit rough for pvp when someone is bringing a meta hk
i wasn't aware that his spawn rate was very slow
im just on a tighter budget than normal, pushing for the bitcoin farm and am level 21 only
i thought this was a decent way to make coin, i think im very wrong though
mdr is quite budget, dont go suppressed
well its a nice way to do what you said, develop skills
making money will be a by product
im absolutely useless in knowledge when it comes to lootspots in IC, so i'd be rushing his spawn and if he's not there pushing the backpackless extract even if run through
yeah thats fine, its what i did when i was interested in farming him, pop an sj6 and go up via the ramp into adik
if you want to learn more about IC loot just watch any IC money making guide, they all show the same stuff
got a link/
literally just got the game what should I do first
ill dm it @rare fractal
ty
@primal ridge check out each trader. inspect every object that is blacked out. then learn a map or maps. either through videos to see first and then offline mode to experience it and to see where to get out. always do scav runs. some people say reserve, i say interchange. and then just slowly start learning the game. can check #sherpa-info for more
I found a mdr in a cache lol
nice lol
hey looking for some scav kills on shoreline anyone want to run it with me and jump in
I'd love to @heavy ginkgo
@bold kernel lets go
Is there someone hunting raiders on reserve and could take me with him?
2pm tomorrow sale of tarkov noice
gonna be seeing some new players
can i have some help for someone
any other first timers..? literally no idea what the hell im doing
@toxic adder whatcha need?
@gleaming swallow play customs
do it in offline mode at first... you dont lose or gain anythinmg
but you can explore the map with no repercussions
use that map
i need people to play with but i dont know where and what to say
im also very new to the game
Looking for group
i am deadass the dumbest human on earth
Happens to the best of us
lmao thanks
ANYONE OVER LVL 20 WANNA HELP ME OUT?
sorry for yelling
i need a windham weaponry rail gas block
verry willing to pay for it
just go to LFG channel and say ur looking and state ur level most people dont care theyll be happy to help u out
im looking for new people under level 10
to put them into the game called cock and ball tarkov
any recommened pistols for the pmc kills
@alpine coral sup
hey
@urban kite 5-7 is popular
Anyone wanna get some games in?
I got a pc a month ago I'm getting slapped in tarkov lol
All the pistols with the right ammo slap hard
how to up endurance fast.?
I've noticed that when it comes to money and gear I prefer to cheap out whenever I can. like a 30k scope or 30k worth of ammo is just too much for my liking, but I always see videos of people rocking the best gear, and I constantly die to geared guys. Do I just need to change my mentality and stop worrying so much about money? I think its hindering me in terms of using decent gear
Just keep running
There’s no way to really cheese endurance
@earnest shadow It really depends... If you find yourself pushing shots and pressing action then going in more geared will give you more lasting time in the fight
Very true
I've played tarkov off and on for a few years now, and that rat mindset from way back in the day has always stuck with me. So now im at a point where I go after fights, but im too cheap to truly spend 200k on armor and 100k+ on a gun
So I think I need to change my mindset, just not really sure how
i rarely mod a gun that already has mods on it
i usually just change sights/scopes
I also never really buy armor, just take in armor that i take off of others
I tend to just die so much it really hinders my way of gaining good armor. I definitely am not the best at pvp, and I think its mainly due to my use of subpar rounds I can't kill anyone geared
shotguns are good and dont break the bank
Any rounds you recommend for dropping geared guys? It seems when I use subpar ammo like BT, I shoot them 5+ times and instantly get one shot back
@earnest shadow headshots.... and with AP20 slugs you can rip even level 4 or 5 helmets to shreds
8.5mm buckshot rips 97% of scavs to shreds
What is the name of the safe room key in the customs gas station?
Managers office?
AP20's won't get through class 5 with 37 pen, they're good against class 3, and most of the times class 4.
A SKS filled with BP rounds is way more effective than a shotgun filled with AP20's in the majority of fights.
It's just fun to use AP20's.
good ammo is worth the money but map knowledge is also king
Very true
Well I have level 2/3 traders, but things like 7.62 BP cost me so much just for a mag. I mean should I just be dishing out 20-50k per mag? or am I doing something wrong in terms of bullets
get pk to lvl 2 and use m80. its cheap and pens lvl 4 first shot. plus there are cheap guns that use it
If you've got Mechanic 3, you could use 366 AP's for 400 a shot.
If you load .366 AP's in a VPO-209, it's just a discount ASH-12.
I'll give that a try, appreciate it yall
Now when you hit lvl 4 traders, does ammo become cheaper? or is ammo genuinely always super expensive
the trader prices dont change, but they have some good ammo for cheap
some ammo like m61 you'll do a quest and then you can buy a certain amount from the vendor every two hours
Ahhh gotcha, is it usually cheaper than flea market?
4.6 fmj and m855a1 are very cheap and good. m62 is also amazing for the price
7n31 for example i never buy from the flea market
Gotcha! that must be my problem then
i don't like paying 2100 roubles per bullet
Exactly, thats my issue
but if i can craft said ammo or get it for cheaper
m80 will still wreck shit and it's pretty cheap from peacekeeper
m1a is a great gun
Much appreciated! Ill use it now and see how it works out for me
what maps do you play
Do you have any tips for experience? I've been farming as many quest as possible for trader rep, but it seems to take forever to level up for trader requirements
also with 7.62 bp for example it's one green gunpowder to craft 120 rounds in the hideout
Really everything except reserve
do tasks and kill as many scavs and raiders as possible if you want max XP
and players of course!
Alright gotcha thats what I figured! Just takes time it seems
what's been your main map?
after you do them a few times you can do quests pretty fast
can someone help me do the quest to unlock jaeger?
I enjoy customs at the moment
But I know shoreline and woods fairly good, and interchange a bit but I have only started really trying to learn it this patch
I think interchange is my favorite map, it has a bit more grounded of a setting to me
hit them with the rat attack
all u need is a mosin and the most expensive ammo atleast 5
new player looking for duos or trios to hit lvl 10
@crude dagger yo
@cosmic cosmos sup

lmao ayeeee lobo thats whats up
3 man squad #17
Hey is there anywhere i can post about any possible hacker accusations? Im just curious for future reference
nope
witch hunting is not condoned here on the official servers
you could always make a case and submit it in a report through the client report system
if you are killed by one you can report in game
can you duo in this game?
Yes, you can play with upto 4 others
yep, 5 person squads for pmcs and 4 for player scavs
Where could I find the chat with all the items i should keep / sell again?
I heard there was a good spreadsheet haha
!wiki search loot
First one I think
Can someone help me with gunsmith part 2
What exactly do you need @bold kernel
I think, he needs stock adapter, as it's for 3.5k frim traders and 100-250k on flea
Need people to play with to teach me Tarkov
is there a list anywhere for things i should be crafting in my hideout to not lose money?
also do you guys know of a ranking or a video for the different types of scav case loot, i dont know whats worth running
@sinful acorn
❤️
lf someone experienced to help me get better at pvp
you could try offline horde in factory
player vs player
Horde factory with max difficulty is fine for gun practice...
If you just want map engagement and encounter management try the sherpahub
Am I going crazy. I thought I saw a vendor trade that used 3 scav vests?
What tactic/gear for stirrup do you reccomend for player with little money(betweem 0 amd 300k) and little skill?
Can anyone give me any insight why this game is literally unplayable for me? The second I load into game my ping shoots up to 400 and I lag out almost immediately. This doesn’t happen on any other game I play
in launcher check, which servers you have choosen
also always check, what region somebody is from before going team with him
I’ve been trying to play solo just to get these connection issues worked out, I have been trying to fix it for days idk what’s going on, my servers are set to the closest ones and my internet is fast!
hmm... idk then. try checking for updates and maybe put game aside for some time (I had simmlar issue, but now it's ok)
If server changes don't help maybe #community-support will have further steps you can try
@bold kernel I ran adar and sks at start... just need to avoid spawn rushes and players in general until picking up a gun that shoots a bullet I like.. made some money and spent it on containers for stash space... rinse repeat until I have money/spare guns to risk tasks or hotter routes through map. Unlocked 1-2 levels of hideout before starting my first task...
because I could...
could someone help me with delivery from the past

now I'm running akms'es and i Feel good with them. My friend is pushing me into switching into m16 platform an being more chad. now I want the most to have money and level up more traders to ll2 (pmc level is blocking me)
but i kinda don't get, how to make money while avoiding players. only thing, i can think about is going trough hidden stashes
@bold kernel
@bold kernel 2 things mf is endgear gun cost a lot to set up cost a lot for amo and if you died they wil allways take it
for the monny
learn a map1 map and play that for 2 weeks learn evry spawn andfigger a loot run you like
can pe interchanfe doing pc run or wappen crates in the garage can be teckstore run
customs i can make 250/500k a run
when I make 200k, I consider it very good run
what do you loot
i'm usually checking garages behind big red (more sentimental thing, as we foung graphics card in them some times) and new medical.
rest really depends
garages dont do them no valu
ok
il poke you
so i have an EU Key. If i choose to upgrade to a higher tier key I can use USD and it will auto convert the currency I assume?
anyone know if the black friday discount if pre or post vat? (pls ping me if u respond)
Hey guys, what should I do when I spawn in that red room in factory.. which goes to a forklift I think, and someone already camping my only door? (or throwing nades in)
Late spawns on factory can usually leave you dead. Spawning in that tri hallway, you have to push or be pushed.
Ok, please excuse my newb rant but what the fuck is up with armor. I can't afford anything, cant even afford a pistol anymore, I've lost everything. I keep dying to fuckers with armor despite catching them off guard and bursting almost entire mags of 5.56 ak rounds or 7.62 shots from sks into their chest and they don't die then they turn to me and kill me in two shots. What am I doing wrong why is it impossible to kill people with armor, I feel like I need a block of c4 to take out people
Your ammo is shit
From that door you'll have a spawn to the left past the forklifts, and straight ahead down the hall. Some love the spawn because of the close proximity. Rough for new players.
End of story
Ok, what ammo should I upgrade to? And how much is it gonna cost me lol
Well what ammo were you using in the first place
I literally have like 2000 bucks left
Vex is being a little too dismissive, but yeah, what ammo
@bold kernel I suggest downloading battle buddy on your phone, has ammo comparisons too
Look into bp/bt for 5.56
BP is shit unless you click heads
BP isn't shit lol
BT is great for thorax if you can't click heads
7.62 BP is the best ammo for It's caliber
Bt is tracer variant, and the difference in them is minimal to the point where it doesn't matter on maps without fat boys. (raiders, really)
They aren't asking for best ammo on a budget when they're implying a low level.
I just didn't touch 7.62 unless given bp from a raid.
On a budget, stick to BP or BT rounds for the 5.56
They'll pierce tier 3 armor easily. Both Will
And if you go chad with 5.56, run Igolnik
5.56 doesn't even has bp/bt, thats 5.45. Or am I missing something?
Yyyyes
5.45,sorry. 
okay, just asked to clarify that there are no hidden names or smth 🙂
Regardless, use that shit. It's what I used til I could afford good stuff. Otherwise scav into raids and get a single kill. Leave with whatever you can.
Yeah I have battle buddy I'm looking at it rn, the only ammo I have found/used is 7.62x39mm PS for my sks, the starter rounds for the Grach and PM, and then 5.56x39 something
This game is weird. Stuff becomes cheaper as you level up.
I would just scav run until you are able to afford better ammo. Plus it'll give you practice and you could probably grab a few guns off scavs.
Yeah I got a couple AK variants from scavs and looting but my pmc keeps dying when I get pushed and my bullets just don't work on people
5.56 PS
Any tips on how to handle when people just rush and spray at you? They always prefire and I have no armor so they kill me in one shot
I tray to stay as undetected as possible for as long as possible
Sounds like you just need to round manage better. Plus, uhh
Tarkov ain't a game to splinter cell in. You'll learn rushing is good to reach places first so people will be behind you or something.
If you hear them running, prefire that ass
And for armor, you just need to learn scav spawns. Scavs will chunk your armor
Players either kill you or don't lol
You're probably dying to peekers advantage.
Or crouch/prone so it isn't an insta headshot
Yeah I dont go slow and I'm not afraid to get moving but I try to mask it with combat going on around
If you're aggressive, you can usually see the enemy 150ms~ before you can see them.
I mostly play factory and interchange btw
Oh, story has changed
Desync is obviously an issue, so yes. Rushing a corner and shooting as you do that normally guarantees you first hit.
Any factory tips to avoid getting clapped in the first 20 second by people who rush and prefire lol
I was playing yesterday, killed 2 scavs who rushd me (and my first player), looted them, then got rushed at gate 3 when a guy rushed me when I had 2 seconds left
Literally don't play factory
Yeah.
It's the most fun, why?
Factory save for when you have g
You aren't well equipped for it yet
Literally aren't well equipped for Factory yet
Are you trying to play call of doody, or tarky
I don't know how to explain it, it's just very intense and a lot of people, just equals more intense shootouts
I like CQC most in tarkov
There's less people, actually
In most shooters I play anyways
Don't play this game like any other shooter
Cause this isn't like any other shooter
That I've ever played anyway
the thing is, most of the time you will be out geared on factory
Go to customs. It's cqc
idk, I run into a fuck ton more people in factory then I ever have in interchange or customs
People like me, Adrian, go into factory with tier 5 or higher.
Right now you just need to learn getting better at the game
Okay so don't play factory till I'm properly geared?
So customs interchange?
i meet a lot of people on interchange. been one hell of a day today playing interchange. to many people
Customs is a lot of geared people too
I hear dorms is a mess 24/7, I wanna go one day
So stick in warehouses and construction.
med room above texho on interchange has geared people
So which map has the least geared players usually
I have 600 of my hours on customs alone
I'm finally learning other maps
but customs I feel like a bully
im an IC only guy. ^^
lasy time I played interchange I killed 5 scavs, and got sniped as soon as I walked out lol, that was my last match of that day
interchange you gotta peak every corner. every single one of them. otherwise u will be clapped by a rat
I had so much loot then
I only say woods because people tend to bring less gear over the snipers
Since snipers will negate armor anyways. It's like not wearing a helmet to labs
Meta build m1a
What is that?
Woods is just trying to stay low so you don't get tapped
That's it
If you get spotted
The End
I rarely meet thick armored boys on woods was my point.
I know what meta is, I'm not new to gaming, i'm talking about the gun I didn't know what it was
I don't think I've ever seen tier 5, but I only have 40 or so raids on woods
Yeah i think when I get home in gonna focus on woods or interchange
Also what are some guns beginner guns
Gun doesn't matter. Bullet does.
Good beginner guns*
Just go for cheap/free
You'll get a feel for guns that way, too
Everyone has a different bread and butter
Okay so focus on saving for ammo, and not getting clapped in woods and interchange
Basically, yes.
my fav gun is the p90
Woods I would hold off on, tbh
They're reworking it significantly
P90's fire rate alone
You could shoot caps at someone's toes and you'd kill them in a second
Shoot caps? Wdym
Well what do we mean when we say that
How to not die and bring loot back
I figure I should probably stay outta shit and loot whatever remains unless I know I have a good shot and they're alone
And unarmored lol
It's easier shown than done. It's legit movement and knowledge in this game.
Don't watch Aquafps. Good person, but bad gamer
Why wdym
Watch Pestily if you haven't heard of the God father of Tarkov.
Three times twitch rivals champ
Is he a bad person but good gamer lol
Nah, just good all around.
Aqua is an example of trying to be too much of a Chad.
And he is always poor because of it.
Did u just unironically use chad
Ok but like Chad as in like Chad vs virgin meme or incel talk lol
Mega Chad
big chads are the funniest to kill
I am not even good, but you should reach a point in tarkov where you stop and think to yourself 'man, that was one sided...'
i think that a lot.
and you also feel bad for the level 30 and ups that skulk around still like rats? Me too, lol.
i feel bad for the lvl 30+ who gets killed by me xD
Tarkov is the only game I've played where you can see the panic.
i like it when i kill one from a 5 man squad and everyone who is still alive run around like a headless chicken.
I still think killing sherpas while they're carrying people is the best.
i think i found some sort of boosting or helping service team today on Interchange. 1 geared and 4 hatchling running up ramp from emercom.
Most likely a sherpa. Because that's exactly how it looks. Sometimes they'll give the others gear
And it's always matching lol
yeah he was killing the scavs while they others were looting them
i killed the geared and the hatchlings scattered ^^
Kinder than me. I'd hunt them down meticulously lol
yeah i only wanted the geared persons gear. i just ignored the other hatchlings
I see it all as kill exp
But It's also a waste of ammo and money : /
I guess, if you think of it that way? One tap for each of them. maybe three to five if you're not the most accurate.
Check their bodies, get some attention xp, too? Sounds good to me.
Well for me money is kind of important right now
And It's a waste of money to kill them just for a little bit of XP
Anyone bought tarkov through vpn to save on tax? 🤔
lol im not that poor
if i kill someone with a bleed from a shot after i die will it count for quests
if that was me the hatchlings would get scav guns and kill me later while hiding in a corner XD
for quests i don't think so
tarkov chad isn't incel chad dw lol
chad means big gear, only want to kill people
it's kinda... super sad that's even a concern for people. Goes to show people legit think they're incels, lol.
In a day where being called names makes people hold onto that name. 
Thanks for the clarification, the last gaming discord server I joined was filled with a bunch of those types who complain when women don't date them and then spam the n word
I just want to avoid those kinds of people
Yeah, this is a chill discord.
Is it ok to ask someone to help with Factory tasks here? I need Big Brother take my hand in that scary place and look over my shoulder while i hide some stuff
If any EU players need help with quests or anything feel freee to hit me up x
Haha.. T-Bone Rare, Can i bother your after an hour? I need to place that thing in factory
Yeah man of course! I'm helping someone right now on customs so send me a dm and I'll get back to ya in 20
ditto, can we both do the task at the same time? lol
i need to pick up the items first though
HEY GUYS IN HIDEOUT I UNLOCKED AIR FILTERING UNIT IT HAS 3 SLOTS I CAN PUT FP-100 IN IT what is the use of it
It says group lvling is 0% atm unless i fill the slots with FP
@tawny crest it's a 40% bonus to physical skill exp
The air filters deplete over time like water filters.
ty i got it!!
In a scav raid on factory I killed a pmc and player scav with tremendous loot. After extracting, the items I looted are not found in raid. How can this be?
the stuff you take from other players are not fir
ok, thanks for the information.
can somone help me learn interchange
Happy Thanksgiving guys! I'm brand new to the game 🙂 download finishes in 20 minutes. Anyone willing to help me learn a bit?
@bold kernel i got you
anyone got money making methods?
im sitting on 1.6 mill lvl 13
I need a B&T adapter for the mp9 does anybody think they can spot me? if so Call me or dm me
Anyone on that could help me learn a map or two? ^-^
@lean mauve don't die. scav run every time it's up. cache running is low risk
cuz nobody helps that much here anyway
go to sherpa hub, they have a lfg channel for people that need help with quests
not a beginner but I haven't played in almost a year, looking for some help relearning everything
and not getting mad if I make some mistakes lol
I agree. I’m not even new, I’m actually pretty decent, but I just fuck up a lot and 1 mess up and then no one wants to play anymore
im bored str training anyone need help with something lol?
no train strength
@wise grove I just need some pointers you know. someone was pretty helpful yesterday and i put most of my money into hideout
so now i just need ways to make money and to do my quest is about it
still on the first quest with prapor and therapist
one guy ran infront of me when i was shooting at someone and he raged blamed me and left lmfaoo
do cacheruns with a big backpack on night shoreline/interchange, bring a handful of smoke grenades with you to throw around aimlessly to train throwing + strength.
rest of strength skilling should come since youre going to be overweight from all the shit you're going to be carrying
all i do is farm for labs card and ran labs
some people are too tryhardy. It happens.
hey im not so much a beginner but i found a red labs card on shoreline yesterday and im not sure what to list it for, there was only one offer up when i checked after i got mine and it was at 100 million and it went unsold meaning the guy who listed it lost 36 million roubles
i only have 14 million roubles tho
just use it @silver sparrow
ive never run labs before
im only level 42 i think i would get stomped by better players
im levle 16 and i ran labs alot its kinda fun
sure if you like; but I prefer vocal conversations
@wise bough the rapist
ummm, double check on flea if people buy the item always
them compare to dealer prices
once you you see the prices, you learn what items you should sell to dealers vs flea
@wise bough unfortunately not in game atm, and there are so many reserve keys idk off the top of my head
@silver sparrow what lunar says, just do that instead, i personally wouldnt hold on to it.
@wise bough https://tarkov-market.com/ you can see recent pricing histories of items here.
Some items are sold on flea around trader value (like teapot) because people want to get flea market rep. Unless you're farming rep yourself, therapist is best.
im not gonna sell my red labs card at therapist value
