ofc not @silver sparrow
oh im dumb you tagged someone else
i sent that website to that other dude to check prices

its worth about 500k on market. pretty trash key ngl
my first labs run was level 15, your level 42, you are not new. tarkov is about stepping out of your comfort zone as much as possible. my labs prime this wipe was at level 27 at 3.5 mil. now im at 43, and i still love labs and run it alot
big portion of the advice in here is to make money, i understand thats a priority but some people in here are like 5 mil asking for good money methods. the best money making method is to get good at pvp, that way you can kill the people taking whats rightfully yours. so instead of running pistols everyday for the rest of your tarky career, take what you have, wipe is around the corner, and everything in your stash will be gone. my mistake last wipe is running budget the netire time and having 9 weapon cases full of meta guns when it wiped. i make 10x more money now that i am competant at pvp, so dont be afraid to buy the good ammo, and good weapon parts.
its not that im new its that i suck and dont want to run labs because everyone there is better than i am. if it were free to go i would but its expensive for me to toss kits like that
thats the mindset that makes you worse, i took my level 12 friend who had 500k into labs, he is dogshit btw, he killed 2 slick gamers with meta hks.
id rather make a ton of money off a card and be able to actually afford labs runs than be broke with a no longer FIR labs card
he said as soon as we loaded in "well there goes 200k and a good set" he got out with about 2mil profit
the mindset "i will lose if i go to that" is the worst thing you could say in tarkov.
your at 14mil, you are fine on money
but you said your friend went in with that mindset and got out with 10x value
yea, and then his mindset changed, and he turned every raid into something like that
as soon as we load in and anybody says something like that, i tell them to shut up
if you want to slowely climb 100k a day, go ahead. its like preffering knitting over sky diving, sure i die more than 90% of people in this server, but i have more money than 90% of people in this server
fear is the bane of all tarkov players
my point still stands that even if i wanted to do labs i would be better off selling the card to afford runs than bringing it and doing 200 raids to make that value back
should i keep this?
yes
its for a task
ok
or you can sell it and craft one later
what level r u?
then sell
ight
its a late mechanic task
i have space
still its 30k, and unless ur gonna grind for the next 2 months straight, killing pmcs and scav bosses, its useless
ight lol
who should i sell intelligence folder to? its not found in raid
use it on scav case, if not then fence
same was doing labs since level 8 lmfao
when i go into tarkov, my mindset is "i lose every fight i dont take"
trust me, if you stop caring about money, you will make 10x more money
when i go to tarkov my mindset is no one can beat me in a gunfight i rush every time lmfao
had the game for 11 days my stash is now like 17m i have no rubbles tho coz i buy keycards
i dont remember the last time i backed down from a fight, even if ive already killed 6 people and have a bag full, its just more loot for me
is trading weapons to other players bannable @frigid shard
coz i have a few meta hks i wanna trade it for keycards lmfaoo
nope, if you trade like 2 weapon cases a day then yes, but just like 1-6 guns a day is fine
@frigid shard what servers u guys play let me join labs runs
im off tarkov rn, but i play miami, and most of the time im solo, i usually only play with a team when i sherpa
everytime i hit 200k i buy keycard and come out with more guns and armors lmfao
Can I give someone full kit when i am playing together?
Trying to help my friend out
yes
anyone wanna trade meta hk for a few keycards xD
ive dropped my brother 3 ledxes when he was on thicc task and im not banned
cool thanks
im so addicted to labs bruh
im new to the game and i ran like labs like idk 12x? i haent seen a hacker yet
thats a good number imo
its currently going to shit cuz black friday sale, but for the next few hours u should be fine. the next 1-2weeks is gonna be cancer
its gonna be bad during sales i believe
yes spring was 1-2 hackers every raid basically lmao
coz people will buy acc to hack then transfer items to their main
why is there alot of hackers during spring?
twitch drop
isnt that when covid happened
i think increased the popularity
well primarily rmt, they get a cheap account, make 70mil in a day, buy a red card, sell it for the same price they bought theyre account, repeat, profit
i mean last hacker i ran into was about a month ago, probabl like 50 runs since then. recently its been like 1 every 60 labs runs
im staying off labs for next 2 days to see the situation, if its good then im back to it
thats a good idea
@frozen sundial https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGNFdqUlac8YuKWsj0ueL5w this guy shows what the labs expirience really looks like
oo
thats gonna be me
what a chad
yall insane
any AU players in here? just got the game
honestly hes a big pussy, but it goes to show how everyone will have their chad moments, and the moments when they sit in a corner waiting for the enemy to push, and he died wayy more than he gets out
You either hold unexpected corners, or abuse the awful netcode and get peekers advantage.
Most gunfights revolve around repeeking each other repeatedly for that advantage.
Anybody trying to team
anyone wanna play?
Honestly either play super safe or super agro because it just gets confusing if you play in the middle
Combining both is the best, sometimes you just have to be silent, and at other times going loud will save you.
It's all about reading the situation, and a bit of luck.
Yeah im down to play
anyone wanna run woods for fun/learning?
could use a carry on some fetch quests
why is a bitcoin 500k on the market
I thought you couldnt sell btc kn flee
Completely incorrect
There is no luck in tarkov
Or at least in fights
The biggest part of a gunfight is your position qnd your gun. When I have an mpx,im going to be 10 times more agro than I would be if I had an m1a
Every corner, someone has peepers advantage, weather it be distance, or gun, or both
If someone is holding a corner with a val,I will bounce a nade,and then I will push as hard as I can. They can kill me in .5 seconds, only way I can win is if they're running from the nade or panic
Nades are more for flushing people out than killing, at least in my playstyle
Classic nade bait @frigid shard
In tarkov, your first step to extract makes every difference to getting out fat or dying
As soon as he hears me pull the pin he should run out and kill me, 90% of people freeze
Damn, you're totally right. Tarkov is a game about pure skill.
I can't believe I thought I was seeing non-existent things like desync.
there very much is luck in Tarkov
and it more often than not involves the game fucking you over because it decided to not work
I run into desync that gets me killed maybe once a month. People who complain of it every day are either on the wrong servers, or making excuses
Oh, nice. A sample size of one.
i used to die 3-4 times a day because of desync...
i had to change my fighting style xD
i used to do super quick peeks and go back behind cover sometimes without even shooting and then i died behind that cover somehow
quick peeking bad
Got the game 3 hours ago. Done a couple raids but got nothing good out of it. Trying to find a guide to help me make better decisions in combat, and where I should go, etc.
You can watch some guides on yt or request sherpa
Practicing fighting scavs in offline mode to desensitize your self also helps a lot.
In offline mode you don't lose anything right?
yep you dont lose anything a gross oversight by the devs to make the game even less fun
Lol
i dont got a mic but can somone help me learn the maps
Also yt guides are quite good
For telling ton only, where, what is, but also, is it worth it
did we have a spreadsheet of items whe should collect for future missions or items I shouldnt sell?
Escape from Tarkov. This is a helper webapp to provide you with maps, ammunition information, hideout items, quest items and much more!

โค๏ธ
hey guys, idk if this is the right place to ask this, but i just bought the game, but the download speed is so slow, like in KB's? i tried restarting, running launcher as admin, using a vpn, nothing worked
what ammo should i be using for the m4 if i dont wanna spend the 1k per shot955
vy ys gaym hard
speak english
Honestly I just used overwolf + game maps extension
so I could press ctrl + f and have the map infront of me
and just play it enough times in offline, you'll get efficient
What maps you know @severe flame
By now I know factory, reserve, shoreline and customs
I am terrified of interchange
im not even "good" at the game but im pulling in 2-3 mill a hour
just grabbing gpus tets and killing killa
also i got the keys so i get a led ex like every 3-4 raids
some times more then 1 per raid
black friday sim
wanna come with me on a run
just bring light gear and a gun that can defend your self
Sure man lol
plaz halp someone. Im in chit chat 3
how does one escape gamer poverty?
quick peeking good
don't die

@hot tree play it more
Can I get sum help? Im in chit chat 3, im pretty new btw
i got the game 5 minutes ago any tips?
Activate tasks as soon as they open, a lot can be done passively while you play. The first 2 are from Prapor and therapist. Open a map on another screen, there isn't one in game. Watch a vid on the extracts for the map you are playing. Most early tasks are on customs. Before you can reload a gun you have to have inspected the mags. You can do this by double clicking the gun and then middle mouse the mag.
Scavs are free gear sets. Use them to learn maps. Their extracts are different from main character ones on most maps however
Oh and scavs aim lock, Try not to peek the same spot on them because after a couple shots in one place it's all head shots from there. There is a ton to learn but that should help with the basics
any chance someone can help me learn factory? thanks
#sherpa-info always a good place to start
yo quick question, which of these keys are absolutely fucking useless
@uneven niche all of them except marked
@uneven niche Most of them are either useless, or 1 time quest keys
Quick question for someone, is 482,000k for a full kit with tier 4 armor and tri zip a bit on the higher end or is that a decent mid budget build
that is ammo gear gun etc all included
Its a nice budget kit
sorry 514000 (forgot to add in headphones and helm)
depends how much money you have
some people might see running a 250k tactec as budget
500k is to much in my opinion. but thats cus im not rich
I'm at 50 mil, and my average set is 1.5mil
over a million can easily be done.. a brand new slick is like 700k
jesus
Eh, it's about 550k with the barter.
slick 700k thermal like another mil
i'm at around 2-3mill usually with my stash staying about half full
I have over 20 million in armor, but seldom wear any
i go in armorless all the time
3 troopers and some cordura. Depends on how much the market fluctuates.
^
Market is a faster buy
i am lvl 15 with around 2-3mill rubles on adverage if thats a decent indicator @frigid shard @heavy rivet
Its not bad for where you are, but its nothing crazy
^
your status/worth/value in the game is basically determined by yourself
if you want a lot of stuff... and have it, then you're doing well
if you want a lot of money and have it, then you're doing well
if you want great stats and have them, then you're doing well
I like having a huge stash of shit... and i do, so I think im super successful
I want lots of pvp and I get alot of pvp ;)
i want to die a lot, and i do die a lot.
i hate breathing so i stopped
can relate
My first raid in a week was 4 labs gamers which was pretty fun, they were rats so it wasn't great but its gotten me back to tarky
i only play IC anyway. lots of pvp there recently.
Interchange is too ratty
thats why i play it ^^
im a rat. i like hiding in a corner for 30mins each game eating my pringles
I need to get better at pvp and being in groups lol
looks like 2 guys bringing their introvert friend to a club
Yea we gave him a blue card we found and we were going in and filling him up and getting out so he could sell it lmao
So he could join the labs club
ahhh you mean hell incarnate
is there a group of people that are willing to take a newbie on a raid hunting raiders ^^
will i be banned if i dropped for my brother graphic cards i carft for him in my hideout ??
thanks and no we play together and i just helping him build his bitcoin farm !!

!sherpahub
Can someone help me play xd?
@frigid shard could i play aha
beginners, if yall want money just do night raids ffs
If your far enough along for nvg sure.... some nights are pretty damn dark.
I am fond of always hitting stashes.
Finding low visibility routes that contain loot or get me safely to extract was it's own learning curve.
Yes do night raids stashes
i started doing that on customs for stash runs and god damn the free monies
I've got 3/10 fir goldenstar. Should i sell it on flea or keep or sell to traders?
Clear spawn>secure quick loot>push task/exit tends to be how I do any raid.
Turn it into Propital
What level of what do I need?
Medstation 3, if you don't have that, either hold onto it, or Flea it.
Kk
Also new here
I tried to clear the spawns but I'm usually the one who gets cleared lol
Otherwise I tend to find a bush and stay there for 10 minutes
That really bumps up the survival rate but also quite boring
first 10m = i am one with the rat next 20m = i am speed
The 30k ones
the one that big boss wears? lol
I am putting it on a 6b47 so i at least still have some armor on my head
Alright a sherpa also gave me that same loadout
Where are you going to night raid at? I need to get my sniper quest done and I might try to hunt you down :O
I am thinking about doing the oil tankers quest in Customs
and kill some scavs in Woods
Very cool
I hate those marking quests
@pearl plume dont worry there will be even worse ones to hate
Labs
I'm lv13. I don't think I can handle Labs XD
can anyone help I just bought the game and don't know what to do
run some offline raids in Customs
how
@nimble zinc do a scav and watch a video

@limpid valve i sent u a pm
anyone wanna fool around/learn on woods
Anyone from EU and needing help with anything DM me.
I have 2500+ hours and love to help new players!
Hehe
@analog field you wanna fool around in the woods?
under the shirt over the bra? lol
If you get a friend into factory and kill him with a pistol does it count for the pmc pistol quest?
@supple reef negative
You cant get any of the kill quests done by killing a partner
and i need skier to get peacekepper quests unlocked
You can try queueing separately and hope you get in the same instance.
Is it kill PMCs with pistol?
ye
just camp in the rafters of factory with a suppressed pistol
tried
wear a dark headcover
3 pistol kills is easy. Just 5,-7 to factory
hide better?
im using a PBM with good ammo, ratted on this guy, 15 bullet to the head nothing happened
Getting 7n31 without prapor maxed is a pocket drainer for sure.
This pistol with PMM ammo
the vid i looked up said it was good ammo and the ammo is 2k a bullet
Sadly that's not the case.
Well you got scammed. 9x18 best ammo pens paca
It only has 24 pen, it works great on unarmored targets though.
aim exclusively for the head when using a pistol
@supple reef 5-7 or glocj
I dont want to spend like a 100k on one pistol btw
youre better off getting head eyes, then mag dumping a chest
@supple reef just run a shit pistol with decent ammo over and over til you get it
The G18c with a 50 round mag filled with PST would perform better than your APS.
Just use a stock glock with ap 6.3
^
just mag dump the glock18 on full auto and hope for a head eyes
It's about 40k a kit for the drum mag and G18C.
what ammo do i use with glock 17?
ap 6.3
Ap 6.3
PST on an extreme budget, otherwise AP 6.3, and if you're a chad, 7N31.
It melts a Slick in less than a second if loaded up with 7N31.
24 pen, but it's better than the APS due to fire rate and automatic recoil compensation.
the 3rd best
whats sherpa
@supple reef any ammo kills to an unarmored head/face....
its goes 7n31 ap 6.3 then pst gzh
39 pen, 30 pen, and 24 pen respectively.
Pst gzh is dogshit
aim for the head and you're golden
@supple reef get a factory key so you can extract at gate 0 or cellars
Oh, wow. The G18C is 35k each at the moment.
They're usually hovering around 25k.
Well, it's still cheaper than running your APS with 2k/round ammo.
Anyone wanna get into a call and help me out?
What do you need to know?
- Point barrel at enemy
- Hold the fire button
- ???
- Profit.
Just dont let the underpants gnomes steal your loot!
There's three "good" handguns
G18 w/RIP or 7N31
5/7 w/ SS190
SR1MP with SP-13
lolno
5/7 w ss190 is my fav
The M1911 even with .45 AP is vastly inferior to the others
Mag size, can't attach a suppressor (yet)
can it even take sights?
It's decent for the price.
You can mount a sight on it, .45 AP's do 70 flesh with 36 pen.
They're 2 dollars each, which is dirt cheap.
killed one pmc
still alive
dang it
i only killed one pmc the rest were player scavs
i extracted
atleast u killed one
this pistol was good
I have a question. I want to start playing with SMG and im wondering if the PP-19 worth the try should I go MP5 instead. My group have no love for the PP-19 but i find it so cool, just dont wanna invest like crazy on something not worth it xD
The iron sights are a little bit wonky on the PP-19, but it's a discount MP5 if you use it well. It has next to no recoil while being dirt cheap.
However, if you do start using mods, keep in mind that buying a MP5 can be cheaper than slapping multiple mods on a PP-19.
You'll get the PP-19 back from insurance more often than the MP5 though, the MP5 is 1x3 while the PP-19 is 2x3.
So modded it may get more expensive, but more chance that people let it on the floor
Im gonna have to check the flea market alot for the price difference
add a dirt cheap silencer and sight and you'll most likely be golden
and i know Ap 6.3 are the way to go... but at 1300 per shot xD
i get mine back almost everytime
if you can't afford it go with pst gzh
a mag dump on most people will kill them
also do quest for peacekeeper
try and get him to lvl 3
you unlock ap 6.3 for $4 a piece
A full 50 round magdump with PST is going to kill anyone, even if they're wearing a Slick with Altyn.
Well, assuming you hit.
pp-19 can only carry 30
so if you're looking to carry a higher ammo capacity then go for the mp5
So you recommend just to put a sight + silencer on a pp19
And ammo depend of my budget
what i do
yes
if you want to really melt someone go with 7n31 but it 2k a shot
then theres ap 6.3
then pst gzh
Mmm i was buying prapor front of weapon (forgot the name
which is usually standard
yes if you change the handguard to the appropriate one
the b-10m is standard
may run pst in 1 mag and 2 of Ap 6.3<
or 2 of each so i can have a cheap ammo for scav and hatchling
ideal
b-10m is locked to me
its the ak100 something im using
the one with a bottom and right rail
But i like your idea to keep it simple with a sight and silencer
Just need to stop wanting to have pretty guns xD
Once you get skier 2 ak modding becomes pretty easy
yea pretty guns are useless without the right ammo
also try and know what your objective in
you can get m993 for the low low price of 5k a round right now.. .lol
Ill take note!!
recoil
argo makes ADS and handling it a lil faster/easier
recoil is when you shoot though
So for a gun with low recoil i cold focus more on ergo
Damn I was only looking at recoil xD
Was spending alot to go from 50 to 40 xD
Thanks alot for the infos!! Now i go and have fun presetting guns and make some cheap pp19 ๐
cheers
any time
The only thing you really need on your PP is the buttpad, anything else isn't really worth it.
You'd be paying 25k to slap a foregrip on a 20k gun, the buttpad is only 4k while offering a significant reduction in recoil.
A sight is worth it though, just because of how wonky the iron sights are.
^
Good i'll check it out!!!
uuuuh I just picked up a weapon in raid, now it's flashing and I can't do anything, can't even throw it away


Or just move to extract with that gun.
Imagine if a hatchet finds me like this 
ty 4 loot hehehe @steel narwhal
coming for you cheeks @steel narwhal
we on you
we comin for yo toes
any new players wanna do some runs? i can bring in gear, help do quests, explain the game, doesn't matter to me
scared of what?
Game gives a lot of anxiety lol
scary game
gotta learn to get used to it
by playing over and over again
expecting people to be in common places
and knowing places to check
anyone down for a raid? im new and kinda need some help
what server
yeah what he said
I need help
Im doing gunsmith part 9
i got all the right pieces and everything fits but i cant put the stock on
@supple reef post a pic
you have aks-74n and aks pt lock?
^
The two pieces under the ak on the right are supposed to be able to go on
the s part messes a lot of people up
I got the parts from the fandom/ wiki
you have ak-74n not aks-74n
god dang it
yeah, you need to match up all the letters and numbers on the 20 ak variants
thats what i was looking at
worked
On gunsmith part 10 now
i love these, they pretty much give you the money back with a bitcoin or somethin, there fun and give you alot of xp
i get two ammo cases from this quest ๐ฎ
dang
you need to get one for it tho, so kinda break even
It's pretty much cash for XP
Can anyone help me do some quests on customs?
im pretty drunk but fuck it
if anyone wants
i'll drop you a good kit
and we'll team up
lvl20
let me know
why there is only 3 beginner assitance voice comm?
they need more
its annoying
when i join first time.. they did everything to hass me and chase me away.. to keep spot in case their friends comes
@proven citrus what server
I just bought EOD and I got everything except for the 400k rubles, does it only give them to you during wipe?
@lunar roost did you upgrade from standard or other editions?
if u from standard they only giving u 100k
ok thats why
to make it 400k total
It is a beginner chat lol
Some peopel have more items that rubbles
What?
why u calling someone broke in beginners chat lmfao
have some respect and know what chat you're typing in lmao
not very nice to laugh at someone for being broke
especially when they're just beginning
@grand maple that guy probably just rat his whole tarkov career
perhaps even an exit camper
^^
one might say
looking for similar low levels that want to team up and do quests
I have to mark the 4 trucks on customs anyone wanna go with me
you deserve worse. 
because they get picked on
Can you please just shut up with your God Complex big man
@pure talon bc no other PMCs will spawn... factory day time is max of 5 PMCs
So you just go in and kill scavs
there will be a total of 6 pmcs that spawn in factory
so one more pmc
not just scavs
Toilet head on customs on his left wrist
I know they can spawn in safes
if anyone needs help lmk im lvl 44 in here helping any lvl with money runs and tasks
thanks
@drifting jolt that was a case before the update, people were camping bathroom, but with the changes to scav ai it's no longer a viable option, so?
and all the beginners in here just need to ignore the dumbass singular guy. he probably just got killed by a lvl 1 while wearing slick airframes and wants to come in here to talk shit
i used to understand the concept of 5 man factory as a sort of poor men raider farming, but i'm not seeing the point anymore
Delivery From The Past quest is a good reason for some
@pure talon What do you mean? People do it for questing and/or to help lower levels kill scavs for kits
before the update people used to do camp bath room and hold against pushing scavs, but now scavs are avoiding bathroom at all costs and steer away from dead bodies so its no longer a viable option to farm; most people who used to do that on regular basis won't be comfortable with running around and hunting scavs on them own, not to mention contesting scav players.. yet factory lobbies are still full and i don't really understand why
not trying to imply anything, just genuinely curious
that wrist is still a decent spawn from what I've experienced, but yes, watch out for people camping that entire building/courtyard. high traffic
and sniper scav can spawn across on the opposing roof past all the tanks
so windows can also get you killed
@grand maple u donโt know what a god complex is
I mean, it fits the level of condescension you've reached. 
If you didnt come here to help people then dont come in here and talk shit
Especially since this is a BEGINNERS area
I am helping u you have been using god complex incorrectly u should google how to use it properly

๐ฟ
Clearly man, you didnt come in here to help but instead ridiculed someones amount of money and made fun of anotherโs persons low level. Just because someone doesnโt have a high level or a large amount of cash doesnโt mean you can just come in here with all that negativity
maybe its just us, but i feel the same, i think you're right
they still do push
but less so than before
honestly, i dont know whether that's a bad thing.
Scavs being a free radar and all that
Might actually give people a better opportunity to conceal themselves
Saying this shit at the beginning of your sentence doesnโt help you man, if you aint here to help or be supportive then shut up
well said. it is assistance, after all. ๐
can someonbe help me out i just got the game yesterday
@tawny compass ya i got you man
i'm kinda wasted but i read back at this whole conversation and i cant help but feel you're in the right here
i can only show people customs with confidence 
what. i was complimenting them, lol.
mb,no offense i hope
appreciate it homie โค๏ธ
looking for someone to help me with flea market and how to save roubles
sure, but please be specific, such a broad question doesnt help
compare prizes to traders, this might help: https://tarkov-market.com/
you are likely to be abused if youre low level for an in-demand item however
such is life in tarkov
a 4 inch rail that costs 1100 roubles?
50k on the flea
and if you think that's bad, just wait till you see post-wipe flea market
๐
but i hope this helps man
thanks man i appreciate it
some people will abuse it
just make sure you're keen on not falling for it
unfortunately, flea prices are built for some mods to abuse it
so double check it
it sucks, but you cant do much about it
are there any forums on budget builds for low level that you know of?
yeah man, budget builds are constantly discussed in this channel
and #weapon-modding
depending on your trader levels
there's also plenty of mods for popular weapons sold for dirt cheap with SLIGHTLY lower stats for 1/10th of the price on the flea
of their otherwise 'meta' mod competitors
so you get a slightly worse gun for a value that is almost irrelevant for far less the price
my favorite is adar + geiselle + PWB (if you dont have it form trader, a cheaper alternative works fine as well) + a 4.1 inch (if you dont have it from mechanic, just get the basic cheap foregrip) along with whatever scope/colli you desire.
dirt cheap and efficient
just make sure you dont spare expense on the ammunition
ill keep a closer eye on this channel, im level 10 and ive got around 500k, and my inventory mostly consists of adars and various aks
m855a1/m856a1 or better
the odds are heavily stacked against you, just go dirt cheap and try your best and play ratty
or wait out hte raid till the chads have fought one another
then do your thing
level up, get some cash, be a dick and take no chances
and always take a cheap shot
if it is ever available
i truly dislike how this game stacks the deck against newcomers
I don't think it's that bad.
like, fine, some items can be 'lategame' but some essentials are hard to come by or you're paying 10x-30x the price on the flea
so just dont get them
Even this late into a wipe, it's still manageable when I run weak kits. it's the knowledge that needs to be built up. it's always rough, lol.
Spend ur 500k on shoreline keys and turn it into 14 mil in 3 days
definitely, man
i only bought a good headset months after i started playing
i learned the game through sense, not sound
was about to quit playing. Found 2 dead guys with 1m kits each on them near extract lol in labs
just click their heads ez calp
the difference is absurd
What headphones do u have @proven citrus
dont quit mate
never quit
unless you truly dont enjoy the concept of the game
dont quit
yeah i dont enjoy it
i spend 1 day making money, 1 day playing labs. Its a cycle and im not having fun
U should quit then
i dont have much disposable income
Unhealthy to play like that @noble sand
this was 40eu
how else should i play @molten portal
and a good headset
@noble sand force urself to lose ur gear fear
microphone aint amazing, but the sound is fine
It will make it 1000x more fun
which is fine by me, i didnt buy it for the microphone either way
@molten portal i dno man, i rarely play labs
tis possible you can end up in the late-stage depression cycle of tarkov
i just fix it with customs/factory pvp
but i can imagine that for some that are experienced at the game, labs is too disheartening
How much do u have?
then why the fuck are you playing labs?!?
i got like 800k rn, had 5m this morning
Stop watching streamers
cause i only have fun in labs
Spend the 800k on shoreline keys u can make 14 mil in 6 hours of farming
play the game you enjoy palying it
not the big-dick energy from a slight handful of people that can do so and actually return a profit from it too
most of us dont
@molten portal everyone gets to resort b4 me
dont let that drag you down
Do u know the map?
@proven citrus i enjoy labs cause of the map, and i just rat around in it mostly
you cans till have a fun game trying PvP with a budget build adar and a handful of mags
youre fine
yeah for the most part @molten portal
did i mention i suck at pvp? guy was laying down loot and i still wasnt able to kill him
thats great man, but, i cant help but state that you're fighting a losing battle due to your choice of mfaps
Learn it better then keep running it if u make it there first u can leave with 2-3 ledx pretty reliably which is 3.4mil not including everything else u get
i play labs even tho i have no money
interchange and shoreline are still good maps and they are very likely to return good profits as long as you don't try to contest the high-demand areas of the maps
still plenty of good loot to go around that people rarely come to
and if you're half decent at playing a shooter and a bit of patience, you really should have no problem returning a consistent profit whilst running competitive-budget builds
i make great money, but i rarely play labs. Maybe i'm a pussy, true, but we both have opposites to deal with here @noble sand
@proven citrus ty for teaching me how to farm without fighting
@frozen sundial lmao its almost ironic you drop in here now after we did a few raids ๐
hmu some other time, i wont be drunk
๐
i rat reserve to make money and then labs to pvp
then you shouldnt have too bad of money problems
if i may be so bold to say
i did 3 factory runs i killed like 8 people already ez gears
same, but i oftentimes kill 2-3man squads of >lvl20 people
carrying super budget builds
where's the fun in that?
its sealclubbing
i'd rather appreciate a good fight
and oftentimes i still kill people on factory and my gear is more expensive than the gear i take out if i survive
its a money sink unless you go ultra-budget many times
i dont take anything with me just an ak with bp ammo
andi go out with gears
7n39 expensive asf
m8 ive sweeped factory maps clean of PMC's before with a pp-19 as a scav
not because that pp19 is good
its rather that people often take budget gera
and then play factory
to do some pvping
iv seen one armor same as killa
its fine
lmfao
just get BT
bit more mediocre
at 1/5th the price
topload your shit with fancy high-pen ammo and then take the kill with cheaper high-flesh dmg ammo
1 7n = 1400 roubles
1 bt = 200 roubles
do the math

can anyone help me to play this game?
@calm iris define "help"
give some tips and also to play the game as assistance sense i got the game yesterday.
about what specifically?
not trying to clown on you but a lot of people ask for "help" without giving specifics
be more specific, but in that context the only thing i would say is to dont give up, it's a really rough ride as a newcomer, if you put the dedication into it it's absolutely worth it.
either way i really should go to bed
are you asking for tips on survival or money making?
we want to help you the best we can
What I mean by help is, getting a person that is experience to show me around the game for each map and what to do and not to do, where extracts are, and good areas to go to for what type of gear setup you run.
is this a good enough for specific
7n39 and bS are same price
@proven citrus going full loaded 7n39, 60 bullets per mag (3 mags)... 300k worth of ammo alone
just saying im still level 3
i just got the game yesterday ok
idk how to
well i guess ill just quit the game for how complex it is and the unfairness.
i guess thanks for trying
@calm iris so you go to trade => look for the first or 2nd trader and look top left should be a task bar => click on it and click accept button in the middle of your top screen
yes idk what the first one wants but i know what the second one wants but don't know where to get or how to
what quests are you on? if you look them up on the tarkov wiki it often tell you what items you need and where to find them
and this page has links to maps to help you get there. the game also has an offline mode so you can learn the maps at your own pace with or without enemies.
@calm iris if i'm not wrong the first one ask you to kill 5 of the SCAV in custom map
@blazing trail what do you mean if i
yea but what does he want what does deadbeats mean
can you take a screen shot of your quest?
click accept at the top
thanks
lol xD
do you guys have any recommendations on locations for just like doing tasks and loot?
im a beginner but usually you can just look it up, pestily is good i just watched his customs guide the second time, great guide
is the svd any good?
Very good. Itโs one of the best budget weapons, because it uses the same ammo as a mosin but can be fired as fast as you want it to
Is there anyone who could help me with money in tarkov
Look at map guide videos on YouTube. They help tremendously. @frigid bay
Pestily has great vids
which map would u recommend
@frigid bay customs til you know it, then maybe interchange.
Interchange has a ton of loot, it's just a very complex map for some.
Who is new to Tarkov and wants some help? I am tired of doing my quests right now. lol
@frigid bay reserve is similar in the amount of loot, it's a bit more expensive loot, but it's a bit more dangerous.
@drifting jolt yeah true all the raiders and stuff
Exactly! And beefier PMCs overall
is anyone available in an hour and a bit to help me and my friend through customs, and give us overall tips since we are level 3 ๐
@drifting jolt what maps do u money run?
Is anyone available to help me out to get started? Ive watched a lot of videos but playing is completely different xD
@frigid bay already said interchange my dude
@drifting jolt oh my bad
@drifting jolt yeah just found intel
@brisk jolt you around for a voice call?
@drifting jolt ye
Well at least you doing something productive xD
somebody wanna do one run together(help sos)
@frigid bay eu or na?
eu
ill play a raid then
can someone please do a few raids with me please cause im level 3 and struggling?
EU or NA
you know how in a horror game you have a monster chase you and it makes you feel scared
i had a PMC chase me halfway across interchange just now
i'd be letting my stamina refill and hear running so i'd have to start hauling ass again
now i'm scared to open saferoom
opened it and threw my backpack off of donut and jumped down lol
im new to tarkov, but i was quite educated from yt vids, i have over 3mil and 5mil worth in stash im level 6, have a lot of good guns but i dont bring them and only do scav runs, is it considered gear fear? i wanna lose it as fast as possible but every time i pmc i get shot from somewhere and get afraid to lose gear without any action or something ( ping me if you have tips or anything helfull)
anyone have tips how to get rid of that gear fear?
@loud crane yea thatโs gear fear, you have 3 mill any gear you lose at your level can be replaced once you get the flee market, work your way up try to get a kit you like that 150k-200k and use that until youโre more comfortable losing it
You just need to remember anything you lose can be replaced
i just play and be like "ima can get this back"
You still will learn something, it may just be, hey this spot on the map has a good sniper lane or a weird scav spawn but youโre building up your knowledge of where danger zones might be
yeah ok, thank you man
Also as good as scav runs can be, pmc runs tend to be a lot more profitable
i made only like 100k from pmc runs
everything is from scav runs
i want to unlock flea as fast as possible
what for task do you have rn?
You need to play once cause thatโs the only way to get exp towards lvl 10
therapist to find one gas analyzer, jager message one, delivery from the past, and gunsmith mp 133 one
i can give you an gas analyzer
what about the jeager message one
oof
i hit one guy 5 times with mosin snb rounds but he killed me near extract, almost got tast finished
oof
yeah, very exhausting, but thats why i bought tarkov
when i played i just wanted to get lvl 10 xd
EU
same with me
even with flea i still cant make money because i die alot xd
solo
k
i would play with friends but they dont own the game
lmao exactly same, but one friend is planning to get it
anyone up to play some raids? Im new to the game xD
i would play but not now..
What region you in?
EU
๐ฆ can't then. GL though
im from eu i can play tommorow
im new to steam switched from console any one want to play need help with the game
@loud crane Sure bud
ok
@naive oak Where you at? Can roll in NA.
us what you mean roll in na
alight I'm still trying to get used to the whole pc thing is a completely different world
Yeah I have run into a lot of people who are playing Tarkov as their first PC game. Starting in the deep end of the pool lol
yeah no joke it kind of reminds me of vigor in a way on console but Tarkov is so much more in depth
We can get in a voice channel and start getting you set up. I just have to pull food out of the oven in about 10 minutes so I don't burn the house down.
alight sounds cool yeah I've been trying to figure out how to communicate with people on Tarkov but i guess there's really no way unless you use discord
yeah. If you scroll down the channel list on the left there are channels for 2 man squads and up under the looking for group channels.
I'm in 2 man squad 6
How do i put star slugs in a mp 133
you dont
they only go in the ks-23
try to get your hands on the 8.5 magnum buck
or ap20
beyond that, i'd do research on ammo types and their viability. tarkov requires a lot of knowledge compared to typical fps.
@hexed maple anything that's 12gauge
Hi guys! Anyone could link me maps that are according to the ingame compass please? If they even exists
Hello fellow comrades. I just bought the game and i look for someone to quickly get me through the very beggining of the game. Like how to buy items or youse my gun/move around the map. Just the begginings honestly
And excuse my english if it would be a problem while in vc
Im level 4 and was wondering if someone could do some raids with me please, i've mainly played on customs, im on EU servers
try using the wiki
if you right click any gun, linked search, it will show you everything to do with that gun
can only do linked when lvl 10
Iโm NA and new. Looking for a real experienced player to help me get better and level and get money. I can someone what shoot and my strong map is reserve or kinda interchange
im from Eu is there anyone who could do one or two runs with me to get some money
guys how do I change scope on the HAMR? neither alt+rmb or ctrl+rmb works for this one
u should check in settings
I did, what else should I look for, change scope and change magnification is this two binds
do an offline run and try to figure it out
im just fokin dumb, it doesnt has second scope I need to mod it ๐ but it really looked like its integrated
@unborn harness yeah u need to put a little scope inside the frame
I am struggling to find the extraxt points
look up on google the map you're playing. plenty of good pictures that show all the extracts
google a map and try to figure out where you are, using landmarks
thank you
than you
i am trying to do it but i couldnt figure it out and lost all my stuff lmao
It happens
If you look at your extracts when you spawn, you will always be the opposite side of the map to them
Iโm NA and new. Looking for a real experienced player(s) to help me get better and level and get money. I can someone what shoot and my strong map is reserve or kinda interchange
Not exactly a beginner, but i need help getting the last SAS drive from the drone at shoreline. I don't know the map that well and when i try i just die
just got the gaem 2 days ago could use some help
@tawny compass What region are you in?
na east
Same. I need to do a quick restart then I can give you a hand
ohk
It will help u a lot more to figure stuff out on your own through YouTube and shit rather than getting carried @tawny compass
@tawny compass Actually this bug is being a pain. I have to try and fix it before I can play.
i dont want a carry tho
I'm new to tarkov and simply don't know anything. I don't know what weapon should i use, where to grind and i've got some loot that i don't know what to do with. Anyone willing to help me deal with it?
Low level dealers the SKS with PS rounds from Prapor is about as good as you can buy.
Well i've got some looted weapons and not sure if i should use them and what addons should i get for them
If you like bold action the mosin is also a slapper. Ahh. If you don't have flea not much you can do about add ons.
yeah but if you want mod advice I would look at the weapon modding section. I'm not great at it myself
Not about addons but more about weapons like if it's good or nahh
That's all i've got to run with
Those are all pretty much stock. Their fine guns but I would mostly use them in semi auto because the recoils gonna be bad. Ammo will be the most important thing. You don't have access to any good ammo for them unless you found some in raid
Ammo wise...
for 5.45 the BS is second best in game and the BP is ok. that is your best ammo exceot that AP SX which is for MP7 and you should save to sell on the flea for like 2200 a round.
I want to get delivery from the past done, but I'm worried that I will die in factory. should I just go in and see what happens, or maybe go night time? idk
Ignore this guy @tawny compass
whats lgf lol?
Iโm NA and new. Looking for a real experienced player(s) to help me get better and level and get money. I can someone what shoot and my strong map is reserve or kinda interchange
