@tired aurora Loot Oli on Interchange
when u run scav u have a chance of starting with it in your bag fuel that is.
yeah, but super common unfortunatley
can someone help me learn the game im only level 12 lol or just somebody to play with
yeah i saw then i was like i should type there lol
@worn lake Sherpa hub is deadicated to guides and helpful players if your looking for guidance.
I just got 16GB worth of RAM, used to have 8, does anyone know how good the increase in FPS and quality is?
GTX 1650, Intel core i7 10th gen.
Solid enough right?
The Intel core was the sole reason I could barely play on 8GB anyway.
yeah, those are much better specs than mine, and my shits fine
@mellow maple have you not tested it yet yourself or...?
I'm about to, legit installed the RAM 2 minutes ago.
good luck
Don’t expect a night and day difference though. It’ll help, but it’s not gonna be groundbreaking I don’t think
🙆♂️
yo i just got this game a couple days ago anyone down to help me out a bit
Can someone help me with the extortionist quest for skier? i dont know anything about customs and i dont know where it is. I can bring decent gear

^ TL;DR Discord deadicated to helping.
if anyone could teach me a little more about the game it would be great
i am in 2 man #13
anyone who'd be willing to help a new dude out with learning the map and stash runs etc. I'm level 5 watched loads of videos and still not comfortable with any of the maps outside customs, so if someone could show me the ropes even if its just for a few runs it would be greatly appreciated!
i need help on gawh
need help learning tarkov
please evry time i shoot small freeze of lag occur help.
vsync enabled?
no, I use to listen to their music all the time though. It's Ncync btw.
lol

More cores don't help Tarkov sadly.
It does help with background tasks, or if you're streaming, but it has no effect on FPS.
how long do wipes last? and when is the next
@quasi hawk so i went and tried out those settings, i think my problem is my monitor is huge, it's a 3840x1600 resolution display
You
You're pushing 6m pixels per frame compared to 1080p which is 2m pixels.
Might have some trouble with the 2080 TI on a resolution that high.
You need a 3080 or higher for that.
@hardy hamlet last wipe was october-may, they usually last a while
this one will be a long one
should i give the 3 graphics card to mechanic
hi lvl 15 first wipe I wanted to learn reserve and make some moneyy any help would be appreciated
ye
eu any1 up for duo im not great
@SAVED IM DOWN FOR A COUPLE
EU LVL1 just joined and is hella confusing.. i have spent all my money buying wrong things and i always die.. i would be glad if someone can give me a head start and help me learn the extraction points and what to loot. i really dont have a clue 😄 
what kind of things did you buy?
Visualization of all ammo types in Escape from Tarkov, along with maps and other great tools
@charred moat
use that
its very helpful
the ammo chart will show you what bullets pen what armor
and the maps sections is very very good to use when you are starting, map knowledge is very important
i would probably hop into an offline raid alone and learn extracts for one map
I keep on dieing in raids. Any tips on how not to?
Don't get hit.
Helpful tip bro
Thank bro.
na but what sort of stuff are you taking in raid?
Most of the time I use scav because I only have 2 extra guns and I don't want to take a risk,
So AK, Saiga-12 stuff scavs spawn in with.
if i were you i would learn the map interchange, the inside is scary at the start so just stick to the outside
try to learn the map and find all the stashes
you can make easy money from doing that
IC usually has loads of rats and some veterans trying to kill Killa for his tracksuit.
ive ran in like 20 times in the past two days and only gotten killed 1 time
and im ass
you just have to stay low profile
As I said, rats.
get some loot and get out
I read that Customs and Factory are okay too. I might've gotten that from a bad source in that case.
I recognize that.
The more experienced players usually rush other spawns to reduce the player count on the map.
until you find one chad with night vision
i'm a beginner, just spawned customs as scav at sniper roadblock encountered a full geared monster leaving dorms rushing to exfil, wiped in 40 seconds
ye :/
Spend 5 hours yesterday playing as scav, dieing, playing PMC offline for 20 minutes. Over, and over, and over.
i just playing offline horde on factory and it was fun
sometimes or always?
always I think
then went to online and closed the game after 30 seconds lol
i dunno yesterday i exfiled crossroads, warehouse 17, far corner, admin gate and had no iussues
I am having serious desync lately and it's getting awful either I drop dead without I hear a shot or after I kill a raider he drop dead then I walk 1 meter then I drop dead too because he apparently killed me.... Pls help anyway I can fix this
i tend to go to dorms like 70% of the time as scav
u either escape like an hero or die without losing anything
xD
i had a lucky run like at level 3/4 where i went up to third floor and someone killed reshala and his guards. plenty of loot
What levels are you guys?
i played a bit last wipe
got up to lvl 12 then my mates got toooooo serious about this
lost interest
I played last wipe too
this is the first wipe where I actually learned most of the maps
but I hate playing alone
same
same
so hit me up to play if you are na 🙂
EU 😦
😦
let me check my ping in na tho
man Ive just been doing night time runs
that's what keeps u alive most of the time
yes
Any website to help with gun presets or what to kit up for meta guns?
ye but very expensive
its like 150k for the good nv
and like 60k for the mono
dunno if updated tho @dark bear
best imho is the termal scope
u see like a red/white highlight
the monocular is probably my favorite
woods is like easy mode with that
oh well
the lowest ping i can get in NA is 100
nvm tho, i just notice the game is region locked when u buy it
so i can't join NA region even with a vpn
noticed*
@terse monolith I live in NA and play in EU servers all the time...
wait i must find it again
I bought this while working in Japan, I go over to Japan for a few months every year then back tot eh US. The only servers i see listed are Hong Kong and Seoul. Living in Seattle it seems to connect me to those servers 1000 miles away. How can I go about connection to the local EFT servers in the...
There's a fairly low ping limit... but it isnt region locked.. you can even change your server manually....
that link is from july 2018
ok, but the cvlient says region EUR even if i select NA servers, does it matter?
Not that im aware of... your ping just might be an issue
i'll try a scav in Bea.. beahau... BEAUHARNOIS? dafuq.. there btw
its in quebec canada
yes
lol nice
and for it to go away type fps 0
good to know lmao
i-m trying a run on an NA server from EU
damn next one, i-ma lready in
aight
the one time i get a sniper there-s fog
@terse monolith you can always throw it in a bush and insurance fraud it if you think you might die
i-m scavving, btw in dorms someone hid his weapons in the bathroom
oh shit, my bad
oooh i-ll leave it there then
😦 killed near the exit
i'm a beginner i can teach u how to be a hoarder and a rat

hey guys! how can I barter items without using auto fill? like if I wanna use my lowest lvl dogtags for an MPX
@unborn harness good question.. Not sure if there's a way to fill individual tags
Easiest way would be going to the flea market and buying it through there.
You can select the dog tags you want if you buy it through the flea market.

Whenever I'm modding a gun I'm 100% sure I cannot see all the actual parts for it, this is happening to me with 2 guns the MP5 and the Val I don't understand why it's not showing me parts such as Mounts and such.
@silver wren are you 'linked searching' the gun?
I already did that and nothing showed up as not searched
Some parts aren't part of the actual gun itself
Some are linked to barrels, handguards, etc.
Like, the scope mounts on an AS Val are tied to the barrel/suppressor, or the dovetail mount
@silver wren did you examine the parts?
It happened to me sometimes
Plus the stuff cincinattus said
The best way I can do this is most likely by going into the flea market and examining every part I see lol
Or just manually search it
What parts specifically are you looking for, if any?
parts to mod AS Val, or Val and MP5
@silver wren correct.. if you dont have all the parts examined it wont tell you those parts...
That's only if you're using the preset menu
If you're doing a linked search it'll send you to the flea market where everything is listed, regardless of whether it's examined or not
I've done that before man and it's not showing every possible part, so I don't know.
Well, I worded that poorly
how do you know it's not showing the all the parts?
If you link search an M4 it won't show you the muzzle brakes, suppressors, etc
It searches anything linked to the lower receiver.
the AS Val doesn't have that many modding options available other than the stock and the sights
^
The MP5, you can only modify the sight, barrel extension, and the handguard
Ah alright I got it now thx

Intel items comprise of maps, keys, key cards and other usable items that will help you get ahead of the competition - or at least know where the hell you are in Tarkov. Most of the keys can be used an unlimited number of times. Keys with a limited number of uses have their durability (number of uses remaining) listed in the bottom-right of their icon and on their inspection screen.
hey i am new to the game and never played before, could someone help me, i just watch some videos from youtubers but not more and beginner assistant chats are full.
@green crescent I suggest joining the sherpahub for our deadicated helpers and guides in the community to assist you.
!sherpahub
if im synchoronizing with other players for 10+ minutes, should i just restart the game?
hmmm
so you might have to 'reconnect' to it or 'disconnect' from taht raid
try disconnecting your internet... then reconnecting
if that doesnt work, just disconnect from that raid.
just turn your wifi off for a second til it breaks connection, then try reconnecting when it load sback to menu
Would anyone be willing to help a new dude out and show me some stash runs or drop some map knowledge on me and show me around? Level 6 but still only comfortable on customs and even then ive avoided the dorms mostly and avoid building interiors if possible. Greatly appreciate any and all help/tips just hmu!
@slender python Only indoors that should be avoided if youre terrified are intel/crackhouse building, and dorms... that's about it
all the other interiors are fine... except maybe the big 2 story construction with the turrets... but Reshala is rarely there
@slender python you should go to the building which is at far bottom left side of the map, not many ppl go there and theres pretty good loot
lvl10 noob here....is there any use for emptied metal fuel tanks? sell back to dealer?
help level idk noob last time i played was before the last wipe whats new and what do i need to know
customs expansion.. heavy bleeds.. a few new guns...
anyone want to play with a noob?
I can help out some new player with quests I am from EU
anyone wanna play? im level 9 wanting to learn the game and just chill
Which Servers are you playing on?

thanks
sry for late reply, but since no one answered. The expeditionary tanks are useful for crafting, the grey one not so much. Some people I know bring the empty grey one into raid to be heavy and farm strength with it 
Decent player here, looking to help new players. DM me if you are interested.
Whats the best map for beginners
easiest map =~~ snoreline~~ shoreline
most important = customs
also factory if you want to practice pvp
Customs i just constatly get my ass handed to me
try shoreline and stick to the outsides of them map
you can make decent money with jaegers caches
alright thanks
heres Pestilys video about it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4qymXDdbaA
All 37 known shoreline cache locations and a potential loot run for them! Honestly these are a hidden gold mine of opportunity and a great addition to the game. Spreading out loot on the maps is important.
Map - https://ibb.co/6b2YH04
Loot run - https://ibb.co/N6JgVBR
----------------------------------------------------------------------------...
@wide hatch There's also 19 caches on **INTERCHANGE... with 17 of them being easily accesible without getting in fights... and you can get out in under 12 minutes if you do it quick enough
thanks
As a beginner, I seem to have the best luck on customs, though. At night I can get the drop on the unaware. Usually level 8-12 who are still avoiding dorms and big red.
how do you see anything at night
Depends. I do use a flashlight sparingly. I tend to move VERY slowly and listen a lot.
Can still pick out chimneys and certain key landmarks to get my bearings.
@wide hatch The only way to truly actually brighten your game acceptably is to raise your monitor's gamma
the in game brightness does nearly nothing
I raid my gamma to like 155%
There is that... but I prefer not breaking immersion
see everything in darkness... for the most part... some times it's still just fucking mad dark... but i can see indoors in darkness no problem
that doesnt break immersion
monitors are different
Some people play in brighter lit home environments
if you cant see, then you just cant fucking see
Truth
If I can spot you from 100 meters away in darkness, and you cant bc of your monitor, then that's not breaking game immersion
it's breaking game immersion for the loser... not me
I mean, maybe my default settings aren’t too bad. I can see the corner shop on customs, at 02:00 from the northern end of the road.
y are working LCDs worth less than broken ones lol
I got a tac-kek heavy trooper mask is that good?
Only level 2 armor so it's not great to run but they look damn cool so people will pain 130K on flea to meme with it
LF people to help me with tasks - Will compensate with bitcoins(roubles), keycards, etc.
how do you change zoom on a scope?
Depends on the scope. Some are variable zoom
think control right click is default?
or alt right click sorry
LF people to help me with tasks - Will compensate with bitcoins(roubles), keycards, etc.
DM me if interested!
I'm trying to get a few weapon presets working but when I go to purchase them ("Find Parts") it wants me to buy the gun and then all the attachments that already come with it (buffer tube, iron sights, rails, grip, etc.) How can I not buy all the parts twice?
Half the parts on the screen are already on the RPK it wants me to buy at the bottom
hey, what do i use intel documents for? i know theyre valuable
Buy the RPK, then open the preset and select the RPK. Click assemble and it will prompt you to buy the parts you are missing@shy parcel
Ok, so just buy the gun first then add the preset to the existing gun?
yeah. I'm not great at the building but that is the way I have found
Would anyone be willing to help a new dude out and show me some stash runs or drop some map knowledge on me and show me around? Level 6 but still only comfortable on customs and even then ive avoided the dorms mostly and avoid building interiors if possible. Greatly appreciate any and all help/tips just hmu!
You need 1 for intel center lvl 1 and 3 for lvl 2
You can also use it for the Scav Case
I am lvl 6 and new I NEED help and map/peek assistance factory mainly please dm me and help
@raven cargo i can help you man
@raven cargo im getting back into the game, i can tag along to provide some fire power
can someone please help me make some money on shoreline im super poor and cant ever make money
anyone know how to make ruebels? im hella poror and just get beamed by people with full gear
stash runs are pretty good for getting cash
what is that
some maps have hidden stashes placed around them, with plenty of decent value items in them
interchange, customs, and shoreline have them. i run them if im trying to get some cash, easily make upwards of 300k a run
Hey how’s everyone doing. I just got this game and I’ve done around 12 raids and at the moment I am lvl 3. But to be honest don’t really understand the game completely and was wondering if anybody would teach and raid with me?
@shy parcel uncheck the box on the left to not buy the part
What trader sells the pk-06?
so like anyone wanna help me make money, im really poor
and brandon none of them do
need one to get some mega loot we are new
can u ban people on this discord for tk on purpose
Level 3 at the moment wondering if someone could just help out a little show me around maps or teach me some tips.
yep
you need to report your proof to modmail
Doing carries, and money help all day! @ me or dm me for a invite
i had killed by a player the second i see my screnn.. i havent moove it was split second..
when screen loaded it says raid ended in 43 second.. btu it was not 43 seconds for me
im playing in EU server.. last 3 hours whatever i do in game all wasted... server disconnecting like 5-8 min before extraction everytime.. coming back to game takes 10 min ...
this is great frustration
also if that true.. then we can just sit at respawn points and kill poeple befre they see the game screen .. right???
everybody respawn in same map but not different points..
if so how someone .. run the distance in 43 seconds to kill other player?
ir respawn in same location ?
i would like to learn these things how it works
Im not a beginner because I am lvl 41 but I am still bad. So im looking for some people to go to labs with me who won't get upset if I potato.
havent played in months i need some assistance to get back on my feet
hey just got the game and ran into this trying to get the patch going, how do i go about fixing it
@dense moat
Run this, click on the 'Set path to existing game installation', then you should be good to go.
What it does is erase any reference to Tarkov in your registry, letting you reset the file path.
rip but it didnt work
That's strange, it should've
try the LFG chat
alr thx
usec
Usec all the way
ok also whats the difference?
oh ok
ok
which is soon
also whats a wipe and does anybody wanna play?
A wipe is when they reset everything so it’s like a fresh start to pretty much make everyone equal again
where uu from?
ohh ok
Because you’ll have overgeared/overleveled people this far into the current wipe
ok
So it’ll be a better experience once you practice this late ready for the next wipe
don't take this to heart tho, it's not that bad
level 6 looking for a person to help me around customs.
anyone wanna play im new
hi all, i've got a monitor displaying at 3840x1600, and it's running pretty slow on a 2080ti running some recommended set up

yo anybody down to help a dude
wydm @bold kernel
like help in what
i just need some help doing runs. making a lil money.
o same
im working on hideout and sent myself broke
ill join back
for reserves u cant have ur backpack (or armor?)
what's the best way to test guns in game? i just had my first pve encounter and even though my iron sights were bang on, i missed
does the game drop bullets over distance?
@fossil tinsel Manhole can only be used with no bag, RUAF can only be used if the light is on, old gas station on customs can only be used with green smoke, there is zb1102 or something that can only be used with light on
Customs car extract can only be used if you got 3k? or 5k roubles don't remember. On Reserve there is an extract by the dome you can only use with red rebel and no body armor
The boat extract on customs can only be used if the fire is lit too
The hermetic bunker on reserve can only be extracted on if the lever is pulled
I don't know any more relevant ones XD I don't know about the new interchange ones
where do u guys do ur scav runs for juicy loot
This is my second day on this wipe and I don't know any of the new stuff yet
Speaking of, do any lower levels want to play? I am level 5 this wipe so far, only played a few hours yesterday -_-
If anyone on EU and is low level/new wants to play, I am in 4 man squad #10, I don't know the new extracts/customs so I am learning atm :) was lvl 40 last wipe or something
gentlemans im rich
ok
I am surprised no one wants to play lol xd
i do
Any other beginners/new to this wipe? 4 man squad 10, I am EU tho
Just wanting to help out, idk how many beginners use #pvp-lfg channel
How come everyone can eat 40 bullets and I die by one?
umm why did i just die randomly by the crane at shorenline???
my feet literally exploaded underneath me
for what caliber?
5.45x39mm
ok so both of them are flesh rounds and they have really low penetration, so in order for u to get kills with them you have to shoot at your enemies legs tbh
What's a better bullet?
i would suggest BP, BT orBS
Because I can look at other traders but as far as I know I can only buy PRS or T because I'm not level 10 yt
Ye I can get PS
from prapor lvl1
yeah ps works until u can get better rounds
but if u want some easy cash pre lvl 10 u should go sks with ps
that shit is op
lol
are the bullets yellow or pink/red
so u have red ps?
yes
well save that for an sks
Last question, do you by any chance know where I can get the mags for the SKS
Or is it a bullet loading type gun
if you buy it it will have an internal mag and then you just but the bullets in manually
later on you can get larger mags for it
just dont use aks
its not even worth using with that ammunition
hey so im pretty new to eft and im trying to do the gunsmith lvl 1 from mechanic, where/how do i get the pistol grip for the mp-133??
okay cool thanks
Hey, sell all drives to Fence? SSD/SAS/Flash???
I don't yet have the game.but I'm thinking of buying it and playing it solo. I don't play ALL the time but play some days of the week and weekends for about 2 hours. Should I get it?
I would say no
I mean, 1 raid can be like 30-40 mins, that's 1 raid... Sure it can be quicker, like 20 mins, 10 mins maybe per raid, but on average 20-30 mins a raid? Unless you're a fat chad and speed run all the other shitters on the map
It needs active play in all honesty, to be able to get anywhere in the game 🤷 will take you months to get anywhere decent I guess
How long is a wipe?
I think wipe will be soon, normally wipes are 6 months or so, but this one is 8 or something. I just returned after 8 months and the wipe still hasn't happened
That should be enough time for someone like me to do decent
I don't expect to.have an inventory like aquafps
Sure get it then :D
I don't find tarkov a very casual friendly game but maybe that's just me
I ay other mislm games
It definitely isn't a game I play with the intention to play for an hour a day or smth
Yeah xmas sale should be soon I think
I've watched a ton of YouTube videos
I've played for about 10 hours over past 2 days and I don't feel like I've really got anywhere xd
I just want to play it for the experience and whenever I have the time I can try to progress
Then why even ask! :D If you want the tarkov experience then fuck yeah, get it
I find tarkov a little bit too addictive
That's why I'm getting it
My first raid will probably be an offline on customs so that I can get used to the gameplay
Anyone who's willing to help me get to level 10?
any 4 man squad here who can adopt me into their next factory raid so i can get delivery from the past done at last D:?
13 hours a day
man when i was in school i thought i was insane for playing 14 hours at once but that was just a single day... mad
Most of it is just hideout and stash stuff i probably have around 200-250 ours in raid
level 7 need to get one more mp133 to give prapor if anyone wants to duo customs real quick
I can sell one to fence once I'm done with this raid if you want
i wouldnt have any money to buy it off him with
It's going to be about 30k, i guess it's a lot for a begginer
Well shit
i can give you the shotgun but im not sure surviving with it xd
either way raids are fun. You could help me learn a new map if you want
i dont have a mic the only thing i could do is join with you and follow you to the extraction point xd
or i could drop you an item to sell and you would have enough money to buy that shotgun from fence
190k with 2 mags of BT ammo. Any recommendations I don't want to spend more than 200k total 🙂
190k total for weapon + equipment
+20k for comcats forgot
so yeah +/- 200k total
how
that stock is bad, no?
hmmm not sure ill double check
i don't use the butt plate ones so idk
Thats also an option why not
ap-20 to the head will 1 hit anybody unless they have altyn or something
1-2 to the chest kills anyone class 5 or lower
Why do people do this? With single fire you wont even use all that ammo lol
Just found this one from dead guy 😛
i do that so i dont have to carry extra mags
fairs
throw a 100 rounder in there and your good
@glass oxide ap-20's are not very beginner friendly since they cost 1.5k+ from flea and require jaeger lvl 4 for cheap
I mean i have access to flea and some spare cash I just set hard limit 200k per loudout for now
i would reccomend sing manum buckshot for legs or just aim for center mass or faces with no faceshield
they're literally on the flea rn for 600
last time i checked they were like 1.5k
Should I trade 13 bitcoins to Mechanic for a weapons case or should I save them until I get 38 bitcoins for a THICC weapons case?
13 bitcoins is not worth it
the barter is much better
the barter for weapons case ends up around ~1.4 mil
You mean the one that uses motors?
yes, 8 motors, 15 wires, 5 (i think) working lcd's, and a phased array element
Need to get a key or something so I can find that phased array element, haven't found one yet lol. What should I use the bitcoin on then instead?
selling to therapist ig
Gotcha, I'll do that then, thanks for the help
untar helmet any good?
if you ask me no helmets are any good since i personally get shot through them no matter the armor class or caliber of bullet
ive just started the game
and ive lost pretty much everything i had in my stash
how do i keep going?
do some scavs run
i keep getting killed by duos, or ppl with better guns
scav runs, it's a free kit to just loot and make money with
hi guys
new to the game
just bought yesterday
ive done a few runs and filled up my stash
is thre anyone that can help explain to me how the game works when i go as my main charachter
Well when you go with your PMC, you get to chose what to bring with you during the raid, contrary to the Scav, if you die you lose what ever you brought with you
Whenever i try to do scav runs it takes atleast 10 mins for it to find a game, is that normal?
If you are trying to scav into Reserve yeah. Customs is great for looting as a scav
so i should stay away from reserve and do customs
do whatev you want to do Reserve just takes awhile to scav in too. personally i've never even played on Reserve before so i know literally nothing about the map
Yeah could be preferable
any good way to get some easy money i lost everything and now im broke anmy tips?
use your scavs
anyone wanna team?
annyone want to team i new dm me
is it possible to cheese the 7 usec kills from friend in the west with a group?
ANYone experiencing spam getting kicked
Im willing to help new people out if anyone needs some. I am from NAE
New player LFG
thanks
level 7 and looking for a person to help me learn the game.

Got another question, when putting a laser on a gun, does it only improve hip fire or is ADS affected too?
think it is just the hip
what.
Lasers and lights decrease bullet spread when shooting without ADS.
Can anyone help me with the Checksum error please ??
@polar heron #community-support message
Shoreline or Interchange? Which one should I learn first? I have successfully learned customs and can pull about 600k to 700k out of a run with about a 85% success rate by myself. Ive heard there is alot of money on both maps however with a rat play style which one would accommodate me better? I plan on learning both eventually however I would like to continue to grow my wealth so I can buy the appropriate gear.
85% survival rate are you kidding me ?
Not survival rate. Just my success rate with my customs runs.
on nighttime and if you play very avoidantly of other players it could be doable 😛
also if you are planning to grow your wealth, interchange is a good one
not much loot on shoreline if you dont go to resort, and that's a chadfest
My survival rate is almost 40%
You have to contest loot on Shoreline with other players, Interchange has so much stuff you probably wont even run into anyone if you go for the less valuable (but still rich) parts of the map
Oli, cacheruns, weapon boxes in the parking lots, office computer parts
Thats what I have heard. All the fatties are only there to kill killa
thats my favorite
mine too :D
rarely run into people there and its seldomly looted
nowadays im good on money so im not really playing to farm anymore, but come next wipe you know where to find me
@hollow forge so yeah, i'd say go for interchange.
Is night the best time to go?
yes
Always check out PC room in idea too. The past couple days, I’ve found 4+ GPUs there on the shelves and PCs in super late game. Worth it
I always go night on customs. So i am use to the dark
I run night for stash/container runs when I need money
the store itself is reasonably lit and daytime Interchange raids are very likely to be played with people that have the intent of ambushing others on exfils
so i'd say, play at night
for farming anyway.
Im having a tough time in reserve, I think it's time to get to interchange
I’ve never been able to vibe with reserve
reserve is hard to extract imo, but soo much juice potential
At what time do scavs spawn?
Reserve is fun, great map, difficult tho
Raiders and chads
r a i d e r s and tech loot, no keys required
Yea what time do the scavs spawn on interchange?
I hope they don't spawn at -10 mins
Its my map pick whenever i feel chaddy and want to do some high-risk high-reward play
I ran out of luck with reserve
My SR is catastrophic for Reserve though i think if it'd be counted
and currently my SR is 58%
Sitting at 50 myself, The Guide wrecked my bum hole
anyone could help me learn shoreline resort and the different spawn routs towards shoreline?
do vss svd tx15 and sr25 lvl up sniper rifle skills? im asking for the quest called wet job part 6 or 7 and psycho sniper from peacekeeper
where are the stats on the ammo types? i know you can get them on the internet but can you also see them in game?
No
there's more than enough stash action on shoreline
it's not going to be million rubles a run but it's low risk and good money
nope, you have to go online for those
@elder jacinth Character tab > Skills > Mastering > Show: Sniper Rifle
Those are most likely the guns related to said soft skill.
HF cranking bolt actions basically.
so hard to find a sherpa on this server me big sad

@green heath
dont the ytake payment in there? 😮
I have never heard that. Their volunteers.
@green heath No. Sherpas offer help for free. Anyone requesting payment should probably be reported to a moderator.
I am available for Q&A and assist with tickets on the Sherpahub. I may leave on short notice though.
i just get destroyed by geared guys every raid, what is the point in playing its not fun
gotta learn how to survive them, most players arent the smartest basic flanking and stealth will keep you alive, dont go into head on fights with the geared boys
It is hard and not for everyone. Map knowledge is so important it is hard to get started. Repositioning is the most powerful weapon in a fight.
finally someone who speaks my language
Yeah I only realized it a week or so ago and am not great at it yet but holy crap.
ninjaegg
that's me!!!!
your my long lost uncle click this link here to collect 2 billion dollars
i have died
no scam
YAY I'm rich.
i drink eggs raw
on your knees?
what
i dont know if I should bring a backpack to go die a horrible death
cause I dont wanna lose it
Just take MBSS or smaller. Shouldn't get looted and prevents people who come without from taking all your stuff out.
I got a LK 3F off a scav
and I was just gonna use that
since im going factory for pvp since I need to get better and i dont know anything about custom
or any other map aswell
Yeah it matters less on factory because whatever you take is getting stolen if you die no mater what it is.
yea I was just bring a MP153
and like 12 shells
I was just trying to kill 2 scavs or a pmc or something loot it and then get out
Makes sense.
problem is thats the only gun in my stash cause I used up all my guns dying
so I just bought one since i had 140k
and now im down to 82
Don't neglect the scavs. Great way to learn new maps.
what do you mean by "dont neglect the scavs"?
Do your scav runs when it is off cooldown.
yea thats what I do
and then learn maps and rush more with it
since I got nothing to lose
yup.
reserve can be great because the raiders have good kits.
I saw in the chat below this one interchange is easy to learn
I still need to do my 1st quest so I have to play custom sooner or later
It has a lot of angles and dark corners. The basic loot run on it is easy though
custom? or interchange
interchange
isnt that the one with the mall
yeah
yea im not risking going into the mall
your always in the open to get shot
ill try to run reserve
with my scav
hes got a semi auto rifle I think
I like going into the back of Oli for hideout stuff and then out. With scavs I will go to the mid area down stairs to find dead PMC but that is higher risk. Hence using scavs for it
makes sense
reserve with a semi is a good plan.
its that gun idk what its called
but I dont got any head protection like usual
so I just gotta hope I dont get headshotted
SA 58. It can have M80 in it.
god damn
The recoil is crazy so tap it
thanks for the advice
NP
is there anyplace I can look at the map of reserve
so I can learn easier
I found one on google images we good
@bold kernel https://images2.imgbox.com/7c/d9/IFuRM22w_o.png
there is a link ^
Anyone down to play some tarkie
i bought the game a few days ago and i've not been online yet, only had a wonder around interchange pve
i dont really know where to start
quests?
Can't leaving for work in 30 😦
Accept the tasks for sure. You can get some passively done like killing scavs.
Prapor and therapist for the first tasks.
thanks
what should i go in with? gear wise?
the med stuff, splint, bandage, pain meds
what about ammo and guns, clothing etc
YW. Customs has most early tasks. I would try naked with an SKS and a few spare rounds in the pocket. Put a bandage in your pocket and med kit in your secure container.
hot key the bandage by hovering over it and hitting a number 4-0
thank you
You can load the SKS in your stash by opening it, taking out the iunternal mag. Drag ammo onto that then put it back in the gun
PS 7.62 is the best ammo you can get from dealers early. Ammo>gun.
ok thanks
i've watched a load of streams to see some of those things
a week's worth before i decided to buy
Good way to start. Pestily has good map guides that I like.
i was watching a guy called mortus
then i tried pestily...i became somewhat overwhelmed watching his vids
IDK him, may check it out sometime.
Won't hurt that's for sure. Take scavs when they are off cooldown for free stuff. They can spawn with some great items.
cooldown?
Scavs have a 20min cooldown after you use one
after i kill one and then it respawns?
No you can play as a scav
you spawn later in raid with random stuff. It is a free kit plus a little loot
and that's good for newbies like me?
Their spawns and extracts are different though. Yeah it is good because you don't risk anything it is all free
Yeah you have to put it in your stash when you extract
ok
AI scavs will not shoot you when you are one until you hurt one of them.
Raiders and bosses will still.
Free kits every 20 minutes
and with your PMC remember to heal with therapist after every raid. It is free till level 5
yeah I would especially low level. If you get it back even 1/10 raids it pays for itself
Well I'm off to the salt mines. Peace.
Salt mines. No it is an expression.
if anyones brand new and wants to play dm me
Salt mines were a place with awful conditions lots of peiople died in. My work is slightly better. YW and GL
have a good one
sad
hi im a beginner lvl 10 looking for mates
@kindred field @civic thorn want to squad up?
when i go to join a game is says i'm in offline mode even though i dont have the tickbox for offline selected
how do i go online?
if you don't have the box ticked, don't worry about it
it's just a jank sloppy game
^
ok thanks
idk why it says that, if the box is unticked, it's online
someone just messed up and never corrected it one day
your melee slot is safe
Yes 🙂 No you dont but i do anyway incase i throw it out or some stuff
it's like a secure container
ta
ye 🙂
but if you don't have a red rebel or antique axe, insure whatever you have so you can drop it and get it back if you find one
i insure my red rebel on the off-chance i go to woods and manage to get a red rebel off Shturman
so i'll drop mine in a bush somewhere and holster the FiR one
I guess ill start checking the bush next to shturman from now on
lol yeah shturman always has good scraps
20rd svd mags are 20k at the very least so it never hurts
hey, im a beginner looking for some guidance. bought the game a while back, never really got into it. pretty good at fps genre, but looking for some much needed guidance
lol i never drop it right next to shturman, i walk for a good minute
@fading sluice i just bought it a few days ago, you'll need to be more specific in your line of questioning
so i get the basic premise of everything, but im really just looking for someone to queue up with and learn really
i think that's what the sherpa's do
@fading sluice u down to play, i just got it aswell.
sure
bet
vc or call?
vc
aight where?

why does everyone 3 man on factory
its so annoying getting killed to 3 man altyn groups with mp7s and mp5s with best ammo
idk how you find it fun to 3 man factory, there is barely any pvp since all the players on the map are pistolings / mosinlings or people with low gear anyway
trying to teach someone to play the game is impossible when its a infestation of squads and star rounds

Anyone willing to help a new dude out with learning some runs? i'm level 6 and still learning the maps and where all the stashes are located and suc Any and all tips and/or help is greatly appreciated ! and yes ive watched hundreds of hours worth ofg videos and still not comfortable on the maps yet besides customs and even then only parts of it
whats the best ammo for 12 gauge?
8.5mm buckshot or AP20 slugs
what do flechets do?
rip up armor, but they're not preferred over slugs or buckshot
it's good if you're running up against huge beefy boys... but it does low flesh damage
I initially liked slugs, but buckshot seems to be, overall, more effective
imo
i started with AP20 slugs
and then switcvhed to 8.5mm
and havent turned back
is it good tyo like swap between 8.5 and flechettes or no?
no... dont ever alternate rounds
oh ok
unless you go labs... but if you're taking a shotgun into labs youre a masochist
Anyone down to help me level and do some early tasks?
Anyone wanna play, im new
ok
Is the mosin any worthwhile of a weapon to lean on early game? And if so, what rounds should i use on it?
Mosin's alright
mosin for beginning of wipe
now its not that great cause everyone has level 5+ gear
id rather an adar in my hands imo.
If you cant afford ammo than mosin could be a useful weapon cause the ammo just hurts in general. Just hit them shots 😉
@paper granite it definitely is... Mosins shoot the most poweful bullets noobs can by from dealers.. you're looking for hte LPS Gzh
Alright, thank you very much. And also, what do i need to puta scope on one? Do i have to find the parts in raid or at the flea market or can i buy them from a dealer?
@paper granite i dont believe you have access to a scope on it pre flea market..
or at least when your dealers are low level
Damn, well thank you for the advice anyways.
you wont ever search for parts in raid for a gun, you'll just find em at random
there's no surefire way to find the parts youre looking for
im new 7 days in tarkov anyone want to teach
