frosty compass
slow seal
#

hmm okay will try that. btw do i have to buy compass or buy it

#

how does that work

hoary topaz
#

You get a compass from a quest from Prapor

#

It's a fairly early, and easy quest

slow seal
#

frosty compass
slow seal
#

game is pretty hard just got hs'd by a bot with so much loot

hoary topaz
#

Tarkov'd

slow seal
#

LMAO i guess

hoary topaz
#

Compass was helpful for me the other day on Woods when I spawned in the new section. Otherwise, yes, it's mostly useless once you know the maps

#

But when you're new, it'll be helpful

slow seal
#

ok will try to get my hand on it

#

thanks tho

frosty compass
#

instead of inhabiting a bush looking at a spinning arrow

slow seal
#

yeah prob that's the right way to learn

real agate
#

just did a pmc run on customs and didnt see or hear anyone

#

makes no sense

slow seal
#

happened me once too idk why

real agate
#

also where can i find fuel?

#

i have 0

frosty compass
#

do you know interchange?

real agate
#

nope

#

been there once

frosty compass
#

Ic is the land of free fuel

#

oli shelves = never paying for fuel

real agate
#

i shall find a map online and go hunting

slow seal
#

so other character i didn't selected when i first joined the game have gear whenever i join so if i escape with him do i get everything ?

empty goblet
#

What is the fastest way to level up Perception? This is my first wipe

real agate
#

What should i do with my diarys

wintry storm
#

What case is worth investing in right now? I am full of barter items, and food right now. When I mean investing in, i mean pay the current prices they are listed for.

naive depot
#

oli is also insanely dangerous right now so you'll want to go in and out

naive depot
#

according to the wiki at least "finding and picking up loot" is how you'll level it specifically and you can get a boost from completing the quest psyco sniper which gives you 2 levels

real jetty
#

i cant click next

#

nvm its all good now

lime grove
#

is one of the holographic sites better than the others? not sure of the differences

real agate
#

it cant be just me that thinks there shouldnt be class 5 and 6 armour

deft lake
#

I forgot to heal my character after dying and now I'm injured all over. is there a way to go back to that screen to full heal or do I have to use items now?

silver hornet
#

@real agate Okay, genuinely curious. Why do you think there shouldn't be class 5 & 6 armor?

runic patio
#

is this normal?

silver hornet
#

is what normal?

runic patio
#

619 dmg and lose thew fight

silver hornet
#

619 damage on one person?

runic patio
#

how much hp do players have

#

yes with a shotgun

silver hornet
#

Players have 440 HP

runic patio
#

im so confused

hoary topaz
#

You sure it was a player?

#

Doesn't Killa have something like 800hp?

runic patio
#

i am not

#

it was at the construction building on customs. i heard no russians slurs shouted at me though

real agate
#

it seems dumb that without the top ammo in the game im losing the fight 8/10 times because they can shrug off a few rounds

silver hornet
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

welcome to Tarkov

deft lake
#

I'm guessing I just have to use items to heal myself then.

runic patio
#

til ammo matters, okay oh well. didnt lose anything only a scav spawn kit !

hoary topaz
#

@deft lake Yes, items

wind ravine
#

@slow seal anything you put into it you keep when you die

Why do I gotta wait 5 minutes just to get healed by the therapist after a raid?? I press next but nothing happens until 5 or more pass. Is it a bug?

for other scopes you need the OP-SKS

honest pelican
warm jewel
#

I'm stuck at the gunsmith's quest that you get at level 2, don't really know what I'm missing plz help me ;-;

honest pelican
#

recoil is too high

#

you need a Remington Tactical Choke 12ga or something similar that reduces the recoil

#

people are ripping you off on the market though

#

so if you can find it in-raid

#

would be perfect

warm jewel
#

Don't got the flea market unlocked yet so I don't think I got a choice there

honest pelican
#

or you need Skier Lvl 2 (at lvl 15)

warm jewel
#

I didn't know read the entire quest, it does say the sum of all recoil

#

ill just do some custom raids and hope for the best

#

thank you!

np man. I still gotta get that choke as well, so I'll prolly be hunting for it for the next few days as well xd

Okay I might be stupid, but whats the deal with the issue of downloading this game? I keep getting the connection is too slow. Then it stops the download. Or I get a timeout error. Am I doing something wrong?

besides pvp and flea market how exactly do ppl get high end guns

#

like the vector would u be able to find that somewhere why is it so expensive

hidden heron
#

is it fine to remove the rearsights on the sks? I'm seeing conflicting info when I google it

Hey, I am completely new, can anyone teach me?...

honest pelican
ember torrent
#

ty man

runic patio
#

You can craft vector in the christmas tree lol

ember torrent
#

but yeah yk how theres like a god gun do people find it or they buy it

honest pelican
runic patio
#

My gf built the christmas tree in her hideout and the vector is the top craftable

hidden heron
honest pelican
#

people with some more game-knowledge might correct me (cause I might be talking bs rn) but I think it reduces your sighting range with the SKS if you don't have a rearsight

ember torrent
#

oh hideout allows u to build guns?

honest pelican
# ember torrent oh hideout allows u to build guns?

Hideout allows you to do quite some stuff. You can modify guns, craft items, generate income (bitcoin farm) and so on. I don't know if you can craft guns, but as cxz mentioned the Christmas tree seems to be able to craft guns

#

at least the Vector

mighty shoal
#

is there any good ways to learn directions in this ?

honest pelican
#

depends. What do you exactly mean by "learn directions"? Learn the maps?

mighty shoal
#

i mean like which way is north west and that

honest pelican
#

the sun helps a lot. Remember the time of your raid and check the sun.
Other than that you just gotta get familiar with the maps and learn which spot is where. That way you can also figure out what's what direction

#

otherwise you can get yourself a compass

#

from Jaeger

mighty shoal
#

oh ok thanks

honest pelican
#

runs you about 200k, but it's a 1-time-purchase

#

as it can't be looted

mighty shoal
#

so you will never lose it?

#

also does it do inside the alpha container ?

honest pelican
#

you have a slot for your compass

#

that one is unlootable

#

if you put it in your pockets or smth like that you will lose it

mighty shoal
#

thanks

hidden heron
#

you get a compas from a prapor quest

honest pelican
#

alright. Didn't know that. Only hit like lvl 20 before the last wipe

ember torrent
#

jakob how much should i be averaging per raid

honest pelican
#

in exp?

ember torrent
#

rouble

#

im level 5 rn just got it yesterday

honest pelican
#

depends. If you doing quest runs you don't have to make much money. I'm not really paying too much attention to my rubels / raid ratio, but you should just play the way it suits you. If you think you got enough to make an extract worth it, do it. Otherwise you can just keep going. I usually get a plan of how I'm gonna run as soon as I know my spawn location and go with that. If I didn't make any money I'll stay for longer. If I got very good stuff I might cut my route to get out quicker

#

and if you're running short on money do some scav runs

#

usually a scav run gives you 50-100k if you get a little bit of equipment and loot from killing other scavs or just looting containers & stuff

#

if you got a good run you can go anywhere between 200k - 5mio tbh

#

but I'm not a pro or anything. Only been playing for 4 weeks myself (hit lvl 20 in the last wipe with about 40-50mio worth in equipment)

that means no

honest pelican

just hover over it. Then it shows every weapon it's compatible with that you currently got. If there are none it's not compatible with your weapons

#

ohhh i see

felt pretty happy about everything

probably a 30-40% survival rate

#

this patch has been just fucking brutal

#

i think i have a 9-10% survival rate

hard stuck at level 7

because i keep getting domed before making any progress in raids

and im trying to figure out why i even play this game

to suffer ofc

#

this is a hardcore game

it wasnt nearly as bad last wipe

but something changed and ive been getting absolutely fucked

anyone scav run?? im kinda new got 700k rubles

tranquil plover

ive died to people camping the convoy for the prapor quest for the compass 4 times, i've died to a random sniper scav at the bridge extract on woods after somehow surviving the convoy, ive died to people camping in big red trying to do delivery from the past, i've died to scav boss being weirdly close to old gas when trying to extract there, and im just fed up

#

i cannot catch a break with this game and it is simply soul sucking

#

Also no, I haven't survived raids in between these ones

I'm jusy

@bold kernel Red circle, you need a machinery key to open the door of the truck. It will be on the floorboard.

Also keep in mind, this is an outdated map not updated with expansion ^.

@bold kernel Also feel free to consult the EFT wiki for easy access to quest info, due to wipe it's still being updated. But most everything early game is the same. https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Quests

So, sorry for all the questions. But trying to get an idea of how you play so I can assist you. What is your first thought when you get into an engagement hit each other and both go into cover?

#

@tranquil plover

tranquil plover
#

all good, 1 sec

#

if i get hit at the start of an engagement and im miraculously not dead and then take cover, if im not bleeding / have a limb thats almost blacked out / a broken leg then i'll push them to see if i can catch them off guard. if i do have one of those injuries and i think they're pushing me, ill use painkillers and try to fight. if they dont push me and i have one of those injuries then ill med up and see what they are doing

inland bloom

While there is no right or wrong answer, myself I'd try and outplay them. Rather than push I'd loop around and flank.

tranquil plover
#

if i have the space to i try to push wide / sneak to flank

inland bloom
#

So, right now. I'd say keep going into raid, try and do your tasks. If you get into a fight try and outplay, or you can even run from it if applicable.

#

The best teacher is experience.

#

It's back! A full playthrough of Escape from Tarkov with informative pop ups and my thoughts verbally spewed out of my mouth to help you guys get a better understanding of the thrill that is Escape from Tarkov

ive watched all of pestily's raid series

#

im gonna just quit for a while i guess and wait for the playercount to die off

#

or wait for streets to come out

#

because right now something is off and i simply cannot perform well

inland bloom
#

Quitting is never the answer, I suggest you take a break.

#

Come at the game with a different mindset.

#

1 day to even a week.

remote gale
#

i keep going into raids but not finding scavs, only finding pmcs. Any common hot spots for scavs on customs? Also tips for the MP-133 shotty?

tranquil plover
#

in a week im back in university and my job resumes fulltime

#

so its gonna be quitting until i find time again

#

because throwing myself at this problem is simply unhealthy

inland bloom
#

I marked those locations with the circles.

remote gale
#

Yessir, I'll give you it here.

Not at all it is really intense and realistic

pure junco
#

o wow ok i didnt know it had an offline mode ill jump in

quaint void
#

Yeah you basically load in as your pmc and a red box will appear and it'll be offline moad

#

I'm a newer player but take your time to learn the mechanics and the map custome and just take it slow and really learn

#

Watch videos as well to get a feel for the game

#

How much should i sell key with tape for ? None is on the market for days

pure junco
#

+ty

languid flare
#

@bold kernel whatever you want for it.
People sold it for millions last wipe, but that makes fee also very high and therefor useless for you.
Try a barter, like for a LedX or Sugar (probably not currently? Sugar is still low prize)

drifting jolt
#

@fossil tinsel you have to enable PVP in offline mode

#

odd

do i keep this red rebel or do i sell it

If you intend to use it then keep it

Why is there no remington choke on the flea market?

High demand on it

Only trades for marked key usually. No buy

I have one so I'm trying to sell it

but idk what the price is

50k id say

You also have to find the convoy then extract

The camp will stay if you die but the convoy won’t

frosty compass
wind gulch
#

"no life" is an insult term from people that doesn't take video games seriously bro

#

we don't do that here

frosty compass
#

to no life something is to spend most of your free time on it

wind gulch
#

it's literally another type of "nerd" lol

frosty compass
#

you can get run through on factory and still complete it

wind gulch
#

no, spend your free time on it is called "hobby" lol

frosty compass
#

?

wind gulch
#

no, you're just understanding a term very wrong, that's all

frosty compass
#

to do the factory part, you can go as a squad of 5 and no other pmcs will be in the server

Hello im new can i get help

wind gulch

it's ok to be wrong tho lol

yes, people farm scavs that way, but it's not that OP, it's boring

clearly it takes hours on end to get something

but minutes for a smaller streamer. At least it did for me.

frosty compass

literally just smaller streamers that I followed I think everyone has drops enabled

if you mean the bigger streamers then pestily/landmark

frosty compass

and support with my viewership

bold kernel
#

ah all right

#

This guy's pretty cool. He does woods a lot.

#

not too sure how you'd like a sniper though.

frosty compass
#

not sure how i feel about that pic and username

bold kernel
#

I'd link a chad in but he doesn't stream much

frosty compass
#

you're a helpful dude, i haven't seen you around here until past couple of days

bold kernel
#

Well at the very least he interacts with chat and doesn't really get pissed off over the little things which is what I like

#

Yeah I just get bored and figured I might as well try helping out here and there

#

Not too experienced with the game but I know how it feels to be demoralized as a beginner so that's something

agile raft
#

is 24% survival rate a decent survival rate or?

snow reef
#

anyone down to play? im in beginners assistance one if anyone wants to play

bold kernel
#

I think 30%+ might be because I feel like I die but still do good at times at 28%

agile raft
#

right okay so a little more consistency is required 😄

#

lets be fair though if we all didnt have to do weird ass tasks with pistols our % would be higher hehe

bold kernel
#

totally

agile raft
#

is this AK particularly worth something? I got it from watching streams

bold kernel
#

it's basically any other ak

#

unless it has 70 vertical recoil I wouldn't bother buying it

agile raft
#

mm ok

#

trizips are only 40k on flea wow i would've expected them to be much more

cursive birch

how many PMC players can spawn on factory? daytime if that matters.

bold kernel
#

5 including yourself but people say 6 sometimes

hot tree
bold kernel
#

idk but that's like hollowpoint flesh ammo

#

no idea why it's blue tipped

hot tree
#

and with blue background

west current
#

didnt patch say they added new ammo?

#

unless i read that wrong

bold kernel
#

yeah but its not the luger

#

that's been in the game

#

new ammo would be the 338

What r the most essential reserve keys

bold kernel
#

how are things returned to you after insurance? Do they sit in the mail so I can clear my inventory or what

quasi island
#

@bold kernel yes you have around 2 ish days to claim otherwise it will dissapear

#

@hushed holly depending on trader lvl and overall lvl i would run what suits you best for your money situation. always try and run the best ammo you can.

#

@keen veldt What quests you need help with?

hushed holly
#

Currently using sks with bp ammo without any armour

quasi island
hushed holly
#

should i buy any armour?

carmine gust
#

Are you getting killed by scavs or players more?

quasi island
long basin
#

i just ricocheted off a fucking fireman helmet

#

is that even possible ?

carmine gust
#

if scavs yes armor if players no

hushed holly
#

@carmine gust players

#

Keep on getting 1 tapped anywhere i go

#

or atleast, thats what it feels like

carmine gust
#

that will keep happening with the level armor tou can buy

#

so save the money

hushed holly
#

okay :)

#

Thanks for the help

carmine gust
#

NP good luck. It's a hard game to learn but so worth it

hushed holly
#

Yeah, i played it a while ago. But realized I forgot 90% of everything

#

Just have the feeling this wipe is real harsh on me ;p

quasi island
#

you dont really have much of a choice until flea and ragman lvl 2

#

so yeah best not to waste money

carmine gust
#

Yeah it is hard on all of us I think.

#

but fun.

bold kernel
#

Is it even worth buying armor then? It costs as much as an sks

#

not including helmet

quasi island
#

not really if its paca

#

might aswell wear nothing

bold kernel
#

thats funny this game shits on new players in so many ways

carmine gust
#

unless you find yourself dying to scav body shots a lot yeah.....

quasi island
#

once you quest and unlock flea you should just run baseline lvl 4 armor to make your life easier

quasi island
bold kernel
#

yeah if I rush for scav kills I get flanked by players that have spawns memorized. if I don't i get maybe 1 scav kill

runic patio
#

Best budget weap?

#

With lvl 1 traders

hushed holly
#

The bronze pocket watch quest is hell

#

I swear

quasi island
#

prob sks

runic patio
#

I assume sks

#

Okay. Ammo type? PS is only one i can buy, but is bp optimal

quasi island
#

use BP if you can

#

but ps does the job

#

if you dont wanna come in too geaared

runic patio
#

Okay. Thanks, fuck this game is rough

#

Im not. im taking an SKS

#

and ammo, lol

quasi island
#

yeah but for me and my preference, when i come in with good ammo i come in with good armor

#

its just the way i play

#

but u can do anything

dreamy wigeon
#

yo how come traders are giving me ranndom stuff and no I am not talking about twitch drops they just randomly give me like 100 PSST GZH

runic patio
#

level 6 in 3 days. Im going so slow its painful

quasi island
#

@dreamy wigeon they made it so prapor gives you packages. only for 1 week i believe.

#

randomly

dreamy wigeon
quasi island
#

Yeah if you use one of the PMC and scav extracts you will receive a reward from fence.

#

like if you extract with a pmc on a scav and vice versa fence will reward you.

#

@dreamy wigeon

dreamy wigeon
#

oh

#

ok

bold kernel
#

should I restart my character if I used up all the ammo that can actually kill other players?

dreamy wigeon
#

thats pretty good

quasi island
#

no haha

dreamy wigeon
#

stay onn the grindn

bold kernel
#

but I can't buy anything from flea

quasi island
#

the thing about tarkov is the loot is always obtainable.

dreamy wigeon
#

reset whe nyou get everything and want a challenge ;p

quasi island
#

you might be down in the dumps but there is always that scav every so often haha

dreamy wigeon
bold kernel
#

scavs have garbage ammo from my experience

#

Just like me

Just got the game if anyone is down to teach me the ropes, preferred EU dm me

#

Ive hit a scav 5 time in the chest for him to 1 tap me just because wrong ammo and no armor

agile raft
#

oof first time im fuming playing this game... Some dude in the darkness of big red waiting for me to be in the key animation to open office to kill me

#

lost like 600k in gear because he's a shadow in the corner

quasi island
#

get used to that lol

bold kernel
#

how do you pop off if you can't penetrate armor and can't get leg shots in?

#

I emptied 30 into a dudes chest and he took it

drifting jolt
#

shoot him in the face

bold kernel
#

shields exist tho

drifting jolt
#

almost no one is rocking faceshields right now

quasi island
#

pre lvl 10 you gotta get used to shooting limbs

#

and head

dreamy wigeon
bold kernel
#

I have had plenty of arm shots and they never die from them

carmine gust
#

unless you are full auto I would avoid legs and go for head. Most ammo you are looking at 10-15 hits.

bold kernel
#

I literally cannot buy good ammo I've checked the pen charts and my vendors

dreamy wigeon
bold kernel
#

I don't have flea

Anyone wanna team up

dreamy wigeon
#

bro I was doing that and I am doing just fine rn

carmine gust
#

Learn reserve a bit and scav there. There is BT 5.45 ammo all over it and that is decent.

bold kernel
#

don't you have the christmas gift bp ammo? That one's good.

dreamy wigeon
carmine gust
#

also in the expanded customs area for the BT and occasional BS

bold kernel
#

why would night time help me? There is a minimum PMC count right?

#

and I would be running flashlight while other habe NV

You shouldn't sell your keys?

Look them up first. You need a lot of keys to progress. You put them in your secure container.

Some where like 30 000 rubles

hushed holly
#

wow..

#

i Run in to so many groups

#

I kill 1 and 2 others pop up

#

wtf

runic patio
#

yup

carmine gust
#

Groups are more fun for some people and you have a better chance of getting your stuff back if you die and less chance to die in the first place if you work well together

keen edge
#

Y doesn't eft make it a bit easier to know who your teammates is

carmine gust
#

because they do NOT want this to be easy at all. Nikita actually hates us all

keen edge
#

I hate them too

hushed holly
#

Was planning on selling those

#

why is the san 301 key so expensive?

#

And I should just sell it right?

carmine gust
#

one sec

keen edge

Anyone wanna do raid with me

hushed holly
#

Is it worth keeping that 301 key tho?

#

Arent those ledx's really contested?

Is it possible to chat ingame

hushed holly

But if you want

#

I am up for the dorms water quest

And raiding in between

keen edge

Sure

hushed holly

Seems like that is better do-able with a group tho

When you do a scav run, do friendly scavs react if you put aim the gun at them - e.g. retaliate lol ? or was it a play scav

damn that is new right?

runic patio

Like where do i see

next to your health

runic patio

limits/ how much i weigh

#

I could sprint, jump etc

west bison
#

you always can

#

there's a number next to your health and if that is yellow your overweigt

runic patio
#

wow what a cool mechanic

carmine gust
#

It really needs to tell you like the no backpack and red rebels do. Holy moly

runic patio
#

Effects no movement in game, but certain extracts just wont let you go

#

without telling you why or giving any indication of an error message

west bison
#

They do effect movement in game

#

higher your weight slower your move

#

and more stamina you use to run

#

and walk

carmine gust
#

Thanks for the tip on that extract Coma. I had no idea.

runic patio
#

So i need to level weight or something ?

west bison
#

higher your strength is the less it will effect you

runic patio
#

And how do i gain strength

west bison
#

being overweight, throwing nades, meleeing things

carmine gust
#

But not teammates..... They figured us out.

runic patio
#

So passively, ok

west bison
#

mhm

#

skills will level passively

#

just play the game

runic patio
#

Run out of guns xP, need some scav resets

#

is it possible to put a scope on the prapor bought sks? or any sight

carmine gust
#

UTG SKS SOCOM railmount. will let you. Not sure price or trader level these days. Probably (almost certainly) not practical.

#

there aren't even any on flea...... so no. Nothing you can really do as far as I know.

#

it is Jaeger level 2 and about 30K on flea. They weren't showing on my preset buying menu for some reason.

runic patio
#

same value as the gun itself!

#

Thx

#

did you just know that info off hand, or did you check somehow? and if checked, where/ how

carmine gust
#

checked in game with the weapon modifying screen you get from having workbench

#

right click and gun and edit preset

whats a good mid tier gun for lower levels 30k to 40k

agile vigil

hey guys, can someone help me with the quest to get jager and the one for prapor with the compass ?
