Hmm, pre-rework I always found them there.

[warped musk]

hm

last wipe i just bought them but now ...

so is it worth to buy the 6 hoses?

for water collector and lavatory

[summer axle]

Is there a way to get back to the heal screen?

[harsh nexus]

@warped musk Yes; because long-term you'll need it to craft things you want cheaper than vendors.

[hazy trellis]

hello, i know theres a hotkey for clearing the chamber of your gun, but i was wondering if theres a way to select a shell to put into the chamber before loading the magazine, im using two shot TOZ mags and it would be very helpful to not have to open my backpack each time :S

[solemn narwhal]

hold r and scroll wheel

[hazy trellis]

that only seems to let me pick a magazine

@burnt tiger Keep bulbs, blue tape, bolts and screw nuts and motor, sell all that other shit to therapist, including the book and fuel conditioner.

Obviously don't sell the docs case, but the rest of that is just shit for now :D

how much is room 218 key worth

[bold kernel]

Did bleeding chance changes cchanged ammo tier list?

[harsh nexus]

@high ridge

You can always find the average prices of items on https://www.tarkov-market.com/

This should give you an indication of value, though the flea market will be fluctuating faster than this website!

[hushed holly]

I was curious to what armour to buy, I heard level 4 armour the moment I got acces to the flea market

Is there any suggestions what level 4 armour?

and what helmet?

[bold kernel]

For armor i go for trooper

For helmet either the cheapest lvl3 high rocoshet chamce or kiver+faceshield

[hushed holly]

Err, got any specific name for a helmet?
I should check?

Isn't trooper like really expensive when I compare it to 6B13 armor?

[vernal anchor]

anyone else using a 3070?

I'm playing at 1440p and getting around 55 fps in reserve...

3600x and 16gb 3200mhz RAM

[leaden oyster]

can anyone help me complete the first in the line of jeager quests, getting the paperr on woods...

[bold kernel]

I need help making rubles. keep dying while tryna do tasks

[tepid fossil]

I don't think so no

[smoky patrol]

I crafted 3 salewa kits but cant give them to therapist do I need to find them i nraid

[tepid fossil]

tarkov is CPU bound try upping your graphics settings

[smoky patrol]

try turning off use only physical cores I use an amd processor too made big difference

[languid flare]

They need to have the checkmark symbol in the bottom right

[languid flare]

No you cant, but it doesnt matter much anyway.

[upper sky]

yea... just a big time sink to go back to 0 rep

lol

[languid flare]

Its not that much, they got each plents of Quests

[frosty compass]

you are short on ram

16gb is enough but it's tight and reserve has memory leak issues

[storm rose]

should I get a scav junkbox or beta container first

[frosty compass]

scav junkbox

but the junkbox is way cheaper, you don't rly need to choose between them

[smoky patrol]

I use 16 gigs too don't have a problem

But 1080 p

[frosty compass]

the game gradually bogs down with 16, it eats like 10 at the main menu lol

reserve specifically has issues, people say

[storm rose]

alright thanks

[frosty compass]

junkbox should be like 1mil, but haven't checked recently, and beta is like 8.5mil normally

junkbox makes you money a lil bit too ,cause you can hold junk if it's underpriced for a bit longer

[smoky patrol]

i haven't played that map yet maybe it will cause issue for me too

[acoustic vale]

who should i hand supply plans into ? therapist or skier and why

[storm rose]

well the beta container trade atm with the flea market would be around less than 2 mil no?

2x ASEA 300k, 800k ledx and 2 mcb which are like 40k

I could make either at the moment

[frosty compass]

then easily beta

2 extra slots is like minimum 20k a raid extra in the absolute worst case

[runic patio]

10 shots hit on one player for no kill, with 5.56 LOL

am i misguided to think tarkov was ACTUALLY realism game? 😦

and how can i equip to survive shit like that

[frosty compass]

hit them somewhere important and they will actually die

[frosty compass]

irl if you shoot someone's foot 10 times they won't die

[runic patio]

sprayed at chest height

so at most the spray dropped to his legs, trust me ur not surviving, or at least sprinting away from that bro lmfao

[olive dagger]

is it just me or does it take 3000 years to find a scav run on interchange

it just gets stuck at matching for 45 min

[runic patio]

45 mins wtffffff

[olive dagger]

its so annoying and only with scav

[silver knoll]

come say hi i help newbies :_

[runic patio]

most i have is 8 mins max bro

scav or pmc

[olive dagger]

scav

[runic patio]

are u on some fucked servers

[olive dagger]

nah

[runic patio]

yeah ik, my scav timer and pmc is both 8 mins oin the long ones

[mild crater]

If i have something that costs 175,000 and something that costs 150,000 should i sell one. Sell one or keep one. Keep all. Or sell all

[rugged yacht]

Why can I not see anything

Where ever I am and I try to fight someone I just cannot see them at all and cant fight back and just stand there and die

[wise stream]

cool scav

[swift hawk]

Should I start upgrading my hideout asap or is it more of a lategame thing?

[wise stream]

hideout is rough to work on earlygame(before flea) but its a great way to make money

[proven pagoda]

my stash is full fuck i got no space what do i do 😦

[late hill]

unable to get Auth Code to be able to login have e-mailed support but no answer any Suggestions?

Thank you. I just get overwhelmed with soo much information

[valid cypress]

yeah same here bro played yesterday and just repeatedly died

[latent ingot]

Ive been playing with scav weapons mostly since the wipe

[agile raft]

ADAR with a nice little sight and some stuff removed is pretty nice

costs 1 rechargeable battery + however much your sight costs

[latent ingot]

before i would use the 153 with 8 round barrel with fletch my friends would give me

[agile raft]

you remove the gas thing and add the one from mechanic

ill send a screenshot im loading in a raid atm

it's single fire but i like it

[latent ingot]

Ty @agile raft

[proven pagoda]

My stash is full can anyone help me im in 2 man 15.

[valid cypress]

what is the sherpa waiting room?

[languid flare]

I mean, single fire is sometimes better than full auto.
Unmodded it makes you miss less

@valid cypress For waiting for a sherpa, if you got an appointment

[valid cypress]

how do i get an appointment?

[languid flare]

go into your profile, there should be a menu point saying 'apply for sherpa' or something

[valid cypress]

okay

[languid flare]

May take a bit, but its guaranteed

[valid cypress]

is there any way to find someone to help through this discord?

[languid flare]

Yes, #pvp-lfg or asking a sherpa directly if they got time.

[valid cypress]

okay, are you allowed to join the beginners assistance rooms?

[languid flare]

Of course

[valid cypress]

thanks

[frosty compass]

...wut. restart dude

[languid flare]

No problem 🙂

[frosty compass]

if it's more than like 5 mins, restart

[coral sphinx]

Does anyone know if the flash drive or diary are any useful?. Their descriptions make them sound like they help some trader for a quest but I’m only a level 2 atm so I’m not quite sure what to do with them

[brisk oak]

keep any flash drive you have found in raid

diarys are far less worth

you need 4-5 flash drives found in raid for quests so yes

they're very useful if they're fir

keep them

[coral sphinx]

Alright perfect, thanks buddy

[frosty compass]

sell non-FIR drives though, it's just a craft item at that point

[rancid turtle]

Any dealer sells a sight for the scav Adar?

[valid cypress]

who sells fuel?

[carmine gust]

Jaeger.

[valid cypress]

hes locked

[carmine gust]

yup

[strong grotto]

Any NA help with Woods? I need help getting jager, and i dont know the map enough to not get killed solo

[runic patio]

hey all, when modifying mp133 for mechanic, does the recoil number need to be above 950 or below it?

[carmine gust]

@rancid turtle you can get one from peacekeeper. The iron sight at least

[rich basin]

@valid cypress Jaeger can be unlocked by doing a task from prapor I believe. You go into woods and there is a deer stand next to the crashed plane. You must go as a PMC then collect a letter at the bottom of the stand

[rancid turtle]

Does anyone lvl 1 rep sell any red dot?

[valid cypress]

thanks

[latent ocean]

@rancid turtle if you don't mind a blue, skier sells a blue dot

[rancid turtle]

Awesome thanks! I just can't seem to be able to aim with the Adar iron sights so hopefully that helps! Thanks!

[carmine gust]

@rancid turtle you can get the aimpoint micro series mount and T-1 from Peacekeeper but it is expensive. Get a low profile gas block from Mechanic too or the front sight will obscure the red dot

[ancient falcon]

I got loot from a scav raid and one of the guns that I got doesn't say its found in raid for some reason

is this a known bug?

[carmine gust]

They will pick up dead peoples guns

anything a PMC brought into raid does not get found in raid status

[ancient falcon]

if I get kill a pmc and get his gear it's not found in raid as a scav and as a pmc?

[carmine gust]

right.

[ancient falcon]

thanks lol didnt know this

[carmine gust]

NP

[bold kernel]

anyone factory 5 people group? just to kill some scavs and get some loot

[runic patio]

what difference does it make to loot it on scav raid or pmc raid ?

[rich basin]

cxz huh

[carmine gust]

None. but if a PMC brought it in then it is not FIR

[slender otter]

Xp

[bold kernel]

I need some help with learning customs player spawns and PVP, anyone availible?

[runic patio]

And does anyone know a purchasable muzzle for the mp-133 for the mechanic part one?

And okay, so say i need a raid item for a task, i can still get it on scav??

And it will count

[rich basin]

cxz honestly just grind out xp on factory going with a pistol and ammo then get flea market

[slender otter]

Yes

[rich basin]

Flea market helps on all gunsmiths a lot

[runic patio]

i tried but every time theres a guy with a suppressed full auto weapon farming KD

[slender otter]

Group up

[runic patio]

so i fucked it off, level 8 so far anyways ig

[carmine gust]

@runic patio here is a vid I just watched on that. I haven't tried his way yet but will be soon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmWVl6iWL2Y

[runic patio]

thankyou

[elfin bison]

any tips on not accidently killing teammates?

lol

[carmine gust]

Good coms. Stay together. Take a hard look at them when you go in so you know their gear and let each other know when you swap out gear in raid.

[elfin bison]

ok thx man

[lethal seal]

@runic patio you can do the trade with mechanic for his 133 shotgun which has the choke and the front grip

[runic patio]

Yeah its consistently out of stock and i havent found a single elite somehow.
I only need a choke, and just found out i can kill scavs for it

[lethal seal]

do scav runs on interchange and just go through the back area for those random tools

[runic patio]

I do that a lot

[carmine gust]

People have been picking that clean as PMCs because everything is so valuable this early.

[runic patio]

Like my inventory is stocked on 10 pliers, 12 hard drives etc. But just never seen an elite, suppose its a little unlucky but not rly

[errant flicker]

Assisting NA players or Western EU (due to ping lock) DM me so we can get a group going.

[bold kernel]

is this an good idea?

got ak 74m and hard to get its ammo

dont use m4 right away bad decision

use mp5 and light armour for a bit

[carmine gust]

@bold kernel put on your secure container

[bold kernel]

while you learn the game

[carmine gust]

the Alpha. It lets you hold stuff in it that cannot be taken away when you die

it goes in the Pouch slot

[bold kernel]

what bout now?

lookin spiff

[drifting jolt]

nah, his alpha is empty

[carmine gust]

Put on of those 50 round stacks of ammo in your secure container to reload the mags. Put the meds in your pocket so you can hot key them.

[bold kernel]

that is true

you need a pack of cheese

a tourniqet too

[carmine gust]

yup cheese and esmarch in there with it. You can always take them out if you fine more valuable things

AI2 is cheese btw

[bold kernel]

I hope you know your extracts as well though

I was going to send a loot priority thing but this list sucks

metal fuel tank as F tier

[bold kernel]

i dont have both

nah dude its the red liquorice near your vaseline

the pack of cheese you can buy from therapist

buy painkillers too because if your leg gets busted you're going to have to walk the rest of the way

[carmine gust]

or vasaline in the alpha.

[hollow forge]

sell that scav knife to fence

[drifting jolt]

8 of them = a mp5 from peacekeepr

[hollow forge]

fun

[languid flare]

Usually not worth to collect, as few have just 16 slots free :P

[barren sapphire]

why do scav runs feel so much easier...

[drifting jolt]

cause some-most PMCs are already dead

[small raven]

Hey guys does anyone actually know where the documents in the extortionist quest are? the picture on the wiki seems outdated

[carmine gust]

Um that is where I found them this wipe.

Under that pile of rags.

[bold kernel]

yeah that one is current

gotta get unknown key and open up the cabin

[small raven]

Yea ty guys, they just changed the inside of the cabin and I got confused

[carmine gust]

yay now get out safe.

[bold kernel]

yeah it says that it changed the look but it's mostly the same

[fallen path]

should i do chemical part 4, out of couriosity, or big customer?

[toxic barn]

What extended mag and barrel do I need for mechanic shot gun mission ?

[late bear]

Just got the game and looking for someone to show me what is going on and how to keep my loot

[rich basin]

Ghost, if you play as a PMC you get to bring in your own loot. but if you die you lose all the stuff you had on your character

[errant flicker]

We can take one more person.```

[rich basin]

Scav is a random loadout

You must evac to keep the stuff you had on your body

[late bear]

Right i have lost everything and am just doing scav runs with no luck

Im not very good right now it is going to take allot of time.

i dont know anything about the maps

having problems finding the evacs

[bronze copper]

Best tip I can give that helped me is look up maps on internet and use YouTube to find evacs etc even in offline mode or do scav runs to get used to the maps and landmarks etc

[late bear]

ya iv looked up the maps. they didnt help i dont know where i am on the map to start with

what is the best site for maps

[bronze copper]

Look at landmarks

And try learning 1 map at a time

[late bear]

im trying to learn factory

[rich basin]

Factory is the "pvp" map

[shadow gate]

@late bear im new and learning factory too, where are you from? Id like a partner

[rich basin]

Its very small and you will most likely die

[bronze copper]

I’d start with customs

[late bear]

US Florida

[rich basin]

Factory is the map you go to kill people. I'd suggest learning reserve/customs to find good loot. Reserve is more geared people though and I think easier to learn than customs

!wiki reserve

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Reserve

Reserve is a location in Escape from Tarkov.

[late bear]

I will try custom

it dont help that the scavs one tap me

[rich basin]

click this link for the customs info

Another tip is. dont aim at close range. you're better off hip firing

Also just because a gun looks better doesnt mean it is. This game heavily relies on ammo

Learn tne ammo

the

[late bear]

thanks

[rugged yacht]

Is getting rolled normal?

[rich basin]

wdym "getting rolled"

What do you mean = wdym

[rugged yacht]

Like if your fighting someone and you headshot them 4 times and they turn and 1 tap you

[rich basin]

yeah its normal

you probably didnt hit them like you think you did

[rugged yacht]

I feel like everyone is made of steel and my bullets are made of foam

[rich basin]

Hitting shots is very hard to do.

[bronze copper]

Yep

[rich basin]

Also there are better bullets in this game

[rugged yacht]

except when i use BP ammo i just 1 tap people

[bronze copper]

You need better ammo probably

[rich basin]

a scav raider on reserve can black out your arm in 1 shot. Its all about the ammo

more expensive the ammo it probably means it better

[rugged yacht]

Ive been using the vepyr with bp ammo and It seems to work really well because It goes through helmets and also is pretty good

[rich basin]

its hard to use better ammo when you dont have flea market

[valid cypress]

where can i get sks mag?

[rugged yacht]

Also, how should I unlock flea market

[rich basin]

Kaspah the sks is a loading gun

[valid cypress]

ok

[rich basin]

get to lvl 10 !

[rugged yacht]

Its taking a long time without good guns

I have so much stuff to sell but cant because I cant get flea market

[rich basin]

Kaspah so if you have the type of bullets the sks needs in your pocket on rig you just press "r" and it should reload it

[shadow gate]

I'm too scared to use my pmc i know ill die and lose all my shit :(

[rich basin]

Cub go out with a pistol or a cheap gun and learn how to not die

also getting greedy usually gets your killed. so loot then dip

[rugged yacht]

Yeah u have to play PMC to progress

[rich basin]

not really.

[shadow gate]

okay! Is it better at night or day for pistol

[rich basin]

If you live while as a scav you can transfer the stuff onto your inventory

[rugged yacht]

Yeha but you dont level up your skills

[shadow gate]

i have exfil as scav twice now

[rugged yacht]

which are pretty important from what ive been told

because it helps you sprint longer

and jump farther and hear more

[rich basin]

Yeah

Skills are important

[rugged yacht]

What I di

[brisk oak]

strength and endurance are the ones that will affect you the most

[rich basin]

usually why whoever no lifes the game more usually wins

[rugged yacht]

cause I still have gear fear which is bad

but I refuse to take out a good gun with bad ammo

cause a vector that shoots nerf bullets isnt much better than a vepyr with BP

[rich basin]

! another tip is keep things and dont sell them. you might need them later on for a task

[brisk oak]

keep the ak from bunker part 1

you need one fir for punisher part 5

the ak 74n

[rugged yacht]

this one?

[brisk oak]

yes

you need one FIR for pun 5

[rugged yacht]

K will do

[brisk oak]

and scavs spawn not that often w them

[brisk oak]

found in raid @languid flare

[languid flare]

Ah, they changed that now too? Interesting

[brisk oak]

2 pm pistols fir, one m4 fir and one ak74n fir

not the ak74m for that matter

[severe river]

Is there any keybinding for uninstalling parts of a weapon? Or any way of disassembling it at once?

[brisk oak]

right click weapon and do disassemble

[languid flare]

Where do you find FIR M4s except in weapon boxes

[brisk oak]

quest rewards and raiders

punisher 3 i think is the one that gives you a fir m4, just store it

also all the m4s you get from quests count as it, so just strip off all attachments and give it 2 him

[late bear]

just lost another scav

[languid flare]

At worst the patrol Quest from Peacekeeper gives you one waaaay later

[late bear]

to buttpumper

[brisk oak]

just 5 more kills to finish punisher 6 pog

is there a way to get a free gun i have nothing to go in with

[brisk oak]

scavs or lucky finds at gun racks / weapon boxes

[languid flare]

Or if you are truly empty, Prapor gives you stuff

[royal jetty]

If you have flea just buy a pm pistol

[brisk oak]

^ headshot a scav and snowball from there

[late bear]

im only lvl 6

[brisk oak]

prapor also should sell pms

[languid flare]

Buy a PM from Prapor

[late bear]

I have $497

[plush beacon]

Cant chat at the mo but is there anyone willing to run me to jaegers camp and out. Woods confusded me before lol EU server

[rugged yacht]

what ammo with the PM?

[royal jetty]

Sell stuff to therapist maybe to get some cash to afford one

[brisk oak]

something that works out for me is waiting on factory until the 2 minute mark and then looting all scavs, usually quite some weapons get left behind

[frosty compass]

going for almost-bottom tier and hatchet are stupid compared to just taking a PM, killing a scav and getting a low tier loadout for free ^

[brisk oak]

but that's done as a scav for that matter

[frosty compass]

what about it?

[royal jetty]

Your not wrong, but then again getting a kill on a scav with a hatchet can be difficult

[rugged yacht]

What ammo with the PM?

[brisk oak]

i'll tell ye in a sec

[frosty compass]

hatchet is stupid is my point

[brisk oak]

hatchet is only for cheesing strength lvling and such imo

[royal jetty]

Misunderstood sorry pal😅

[frosty compass]

if you're just starting, the most expensive one prapor sells is fine

[brisk oak]

tagged and cursed got alot worse this wipe imo

pm pso gzh

[frosty compass]

bank robber + pm is no tagged and cursed, and you can actually kill a scav, for only 16k

[brisk oak]

@rugged yacht

[frosty compass]

that's the only budget build noobs should be going for imo, cause if they can't kill a scav with pm, they won't be able to do it spending way more with an sks

[swift hawk]

What are the tarkov drops from twitch? o.o

[bold kernel]

random loot for watching twitch streamers with drops enabled.

[swift hawk]

Ahh alright ty

[frosty compass]

pog

[sage ridge]

how much is this

[frosty compass]

poggers

[steep jay]

@stoic nova the factory map, no

[frosty compass]

1.3 mil

[toxic barn]

This mechanic mission won’t let me turn in this aksu and it’s modified how it’s supposed to be

Yeah

[cloud night]

Someone said the other day there might be an issue with decimals, like it counts recoil as 600.22 total or something stupid like that

he doesn't need one since he's not using a PT stock

[toxic barn]

Lmao think it’s the weight

Not sure

But than the erg goes down

[cloud night]

less than 600 total recoil is the requirement. Someone said there might be an issue with decimals into the recoil stats that don't show up

If nothing else works use a PT-3 stock with a aksu lock, it will drastically reduce recoil

[frosty compass]

follow da wiki

to me, trying to figure out gunsmith quests blind seems painful and insane

[errant flicker]

Assisting NA players or Western EU (due to ping lock) DM me so we can get a group going.```

[tender kernel]

Is there still a possibility to play against bots and not getting your lost after dying?

[cloud night]

offline mode

[severe river]

A higher ergonomics number means that the weapon shakes less when moving?

[frosty compass]

!wiki ergonomics

[broken quail]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Performance_modifiers#Ergonomics

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Performance modifiers

Performance modifiers are weapon and equipment stats that affect how your character interacts with their equipment and the world.

**__Ergonomics__**

Ergonomics affects two different things:
• The speed that the player aims down their sights.
• The volume of the character aiming down their sights.

[barren sapphire]

whats the best level 1 trader ammo for sks i can buy?

[frosty compass]

ps

but you have holiday gift ammo

that's best in class

[cloud night]

Sks loaded with free bp is cheap and nasty

[tender kernel]

how do I turn on offline mode

[drifting jolt]

PMC, choose your map, enable offline

[frosty compass]

if the big box for offline is ticked, it's offline

[heady tusk]

What button to bring up compass

[untold raven]

https://www.facebook.com/vivagardner/videos/10114399189660313 1:36:40 into my video, I get the bronze watch and I extract... why is it not there for me to turn in

[rugged yacht]

Is RPK good?

[frosty compass]

it's more or less a 5.45 AK

[rugged yacht]

ok

also

why can i not put a PK-06 on a vepr km/vpo -126

136*

I had one on earlier

[frosty compass]

that's a question with lots of answers

what rail are you trying to use

[tall fox]

i always see streamers hipfire everything, is that the way to go?

[inland bloom]

If you have a laser, and your close yeah.

[tall fox]

just run around and hipfire everything? i'm way to careful to do that :/ always sneaking around :D

does the laser actually change anything while shooting? or is it just a visual helper

[drifting jolt]

hip firing is where it's at when they're fairly close... and ive heard the laser tightens your grouping of shots, but idk if that's true

[harsh nexus]

It's a visual helper 🙂

[tall fox]

ok :) thanks

[barren sapphire]

how the F am i supposed to do the gold pocketwatch quest. Whenever I rush to the tanker I get picked off by people who watch entries to that point because they know poeple are going there. When I go slow, its already looted.

[rugged yacht]

How do i get rid of this part on the ADAR

Without breaking the gun

[bold kernel]

buy mk12

peacekeeper

replace it with that

[rugged yacht]

I dont see it

[bold kernel]

my bad that's ll2

mechanic

he sells it

[rugged yacht]

thank you

Is this okay?

For ADAR 2-15

[bold kernel]

throw the 55 fmj in the garbage

buy m855

[rugged yacht]

K got it

what ones do I not need (I dont have flea market)

like If 1 is expensive and I should save it

[agile raft]

what do i do with this key?

[bold kernel]

that's a good key

I think tape room in shoreline spawns like 3-6 ledx?

[agile raft]

its extinct on the flea

[bold kernel]

you either go to shoreline and grab marked room or trade

[agile raft]

if i put it up for max price im paying 900k in fees lmao

what do you mean trade?

[bold kernel]

on flea you can ask for trades

[agile raft]

what are some good trades i can ask for it ?

[bold kernel]

the key will be cheaper later on its not like it goes for millions considering the fee so something around 300k-1m right now considering it's rare

[agile raft]

you think i could trade a marked key for it?

[bold kernel]

probably

@rugged yacht by the way you gonna use that pistol ammo?>

[rugged yacht]

What ones

[agile raft]

is this key with tape infinite uses?

[bold kernel]

pst gzh

yes it does have infinite uses

[rugged yacht]

Probually not I dont really use pistols

[bold kernel]

mind you that it also spawns ledx which goes for around 900k or 1.5m

[rugged yacht]

Im keeping the AP 6.3 caus eI was told it says for allot per round on flea

[bold kernel]

the room at least

[vernal anchor]

It's also used in a quest

[bold kernel]

yeah keep the ap

[rugged yacht]

So sell the pistol bullets?

[bold kernel]

what about the shotgun shells?

[rugged yacht]

def not

[bold kernel]

the ps ammo?

[rugged yacht]

um

[bold kernel]

actually you can just stack those up

[uneven phoenix]

Anybody wanna hop on and help a noob out?

[rugged yacht]

is it better than BP?

[bold kernel]

There. Throw those out.

also the pst gzh near the shotgun shell that I didn't mark.

BP is strong keep those

PS ammo is basic ammo that's like m855 but easy to acquire from Prapor

[rugged yacht]

K that better?

[bold kernel]

yeah that looks good

[rugged yacht]

Who should i sell the ammo to?

[bold kernel]

let's see

probably peacekeeper

the rounds don't go for much anyways

[uneven phoenix]

Let me know if anybody is able to help me on customs or something other than factory

[bold kernel]

also instead of selling stuff to mechanic for the extra money you should try to sell stuff to skier since it'll be a hassle later on

at least until you reach the threshold of his loyalty level

[limpid wraith]

Am new

Need assistance

[uneven phoenix]

Me too broski

If we don't find anybody ill hop on with you and we can lose our gear together lol

[frosty compass]

it's not a complete hassle later on tbh, you just waste money, which you do anyway selling to him 🙂

[ember torrent]

any tips for rushing level 10? did u guys just do tasks because i dont want to rely on some rng because i cant find some keys

[bold kernel]

yeah I know but he just gives good stuff

like quest gunsmith 2

damned pt lock

[frosty compass]

tbh you just need to keep getting good raids in, quests just supplement it

[ember torrent]

james i FOUND A TETRIS ON second interchange run bro ty for helping me

[frosty compass]

ur welcum dude

[ember torrent]

and why do ppl trade tetriz for bitcoin then sell bitcoin is it a major price difference?

[bold kernel]

yes

[rugged yacht]

Is this a good way to setup loadout?

[bold kernel]

actually I don't know how much a base tetriz sells for to traders

[rugged yacht]

or am I missing someting

[bold kernel]

but bitcoin is like 360k or so

tournaqet

[rugged yacht]

ill get facecover now

Ok i added an esmarch and a facemask

[sour fjord]

Where did you guys find Emelya for Jaeger?

[bold kernel]

as much as salewa can heal heavybleed you'll want a tournaqet to do that

[rugged yacht]

Okay

[bold kernel]

cabinet or jackets

[rugged yacht]

also forgot this

[bold kernel]

I have not found one in those gym bags

[tender kernel]

What mount and scope should I use for the most basic mosin

[rugged yacht]

took out the normal splint cause i have an ALu one

[uneven phoenix]

Anybody that can jump on any map but factory with me

Preferably customs for the beginning shotgun quest

[silver hornet]

if you don't have the flea market you can't

[rugged yacht]

How much would you say this stuff is worth?

takint out ammo case

thats not being sold

[frosty compass]

just cry inside and play tarkov until it appears

[silver hornet]

a lot

[silver hornet]

me but it's the tall Tushonkas instead

[frosty compass]

can't you craft those

[rugged yacht]

Ok that stuff

[frosty compass]

I find emelya rye croutons in duffle bags a lot

[silver hornet]

pretty sure it's only the short ones

[rugged yacht]

IK the hoses and the cord has prety good value

[sour fjord]

@frosty compass, nah. You craft the short ones using the tall ones.

[silver hornet]

^

[sour fjord]

For some reason, I found a hell of a lot of tall tushonka this wipe and no croutons. Lol

[frosty compass]

hearing it the second time made me believe it 2x as much

[frosty compass]

el em ay oh

[uneven phoenix]

Anybody that can help?

[toxic barn]

Yo anyone experienced on woods want to take me too kill some scavs and get some of these quest done I only know customs and factory and reserve as of now

[silver hornet]

define 'help'

[uneven phoenix]

Hop on with me on something other than factory hopefully

[frosty compass]

if you just say what you want help with instead of asking if someone will help, people can answer 😉 ❤️

[uneven phoenix]

Alrighty my fault i had said it a couple times already and didn't wanna spam

[kind dirge]

hello , i,m new to the game , know sombody a way to improve my FPS ?

[runic patio]

can anyone point me in the direction of whats needed to put red dots on a standard AKM ?

[scarlet forum]

i have been trying to figure this out all day haha

i assume you need a mount or slide or something like that

[silver hornet]

@runic patio @scarlet forum Ultimak handguard from Skier, and the Burris Fastfire red dot sight from Peacekeeper

[runic patio]

is it same for SKS ?

[silver hornet]

no

[scarlet forum]

thanks

[silver hornet]

there's no way to put a red dot on an SKS with level 1 traders

[scarlet forum]

but isnt that reflex sight kinda expensive to put it on a standard AK?

[uneven phoenix]

Anybody that can hop on? Im NA

[runic patio]

thanks for the info\

[rugged yacht]

is being a rat bad

[silver hornet]

no

[scarlet forum]

i started 3 days ago, im happy if i can kill 1 pmc and then sneak around at the edge of the map to extract

[rugged yacht]

I started around 3 days ago also

[uneven phoenix]

Same haha

Maybe 4 days

[scarlet forum]

yea might be 4, when the sale started 😄

[uneven phoenix]

We can all hop on together if ya wana lose together lol

[inland bloom]

This is my 3rd wipe, but this latest one took a very very large break. Need to get back in the mindset.

[uneven phoenix]

Good luck bud

[upper sky]

are cultists immortal wtf

[uneven phoenix]

Not that i habe nuch to give lol

[silver hornet]

pretty sure they're bugged right now, HP wise

[upper sky]

F

[silver hornet]

which is why it was dumb as hell for BSG to not allow discussion about them until now

[inland bloom]

You guys noticed how IFAK's are so insanely cheap now? It's actually great.

[slender python]

because thats all it seems to be giving me from twitrch drops 😂

[reef apex]

HOW DO I SPAWN DIRECTLY NEXT TO A DUE IN CUSTOMS AS PMC. LITERALLY GAY, DIDNT GET MORE THAN 3 FEET FROM MY SPAWN AND GET SPRAYED DOWN BY TWO GEARED DUDES. FUCKING MINT

[slender python]

happens to me quite a bit on factory only had it happen on customs once or twice lol

[reef apex]

Just love the fact that it was my last gun in stash, and when I do scavs I run into 4 mans when I have a pistol just trying to leave to use that pistol as a pmc run ffs

Literally hit them with a full clip of m4, missed two bullets, and neither of them died

[scarlet forum]

yeah customs spawns are quite rough i think

in the forest area there are like 4 spawns

relatively close to each other

when i spawn there i always hear gunfight going on after like 10 seconds

[slender python]

what level are you

[slender python]

if you don't know all the stash locations on ic or customs i can run with you but im new as well and dont know all the maps as well

[scarlet forum]

is there a decent graphic/postfx guide out there? i just checked in google and the first one i found made me have 25 fps haha

[reef apex]

@slender python I dont have guns to run with so

Im level 4

[slender python]

best advice i can give you is do night time scav runs and hit stashes if you know where theyre nthen extract right away at but if not i can show you some stash runs, and the way i play youll rarely run into players with my routes or actually pvp unless we got the drop on them so the gun thing wont matter as much @reef apex

[inland bloom]

Nightime is when the PMC's run NODS, Day is probably better.

[blazing heron]

which items should i save for building hideout because i have a lot of screws. tarps and stuff like that but i dont know which to sell and save

[inland bloom]

At least you have a chance in combat.

[slender python]

i'm level 6

got over 10mil stash value

[reef apex]

But how lmao

Ive had one good run this entire wipe. and it wasnt even that good

[slender python]

im far from pro or even great im average at most im just careful and got a slow ratlike playstyle

i hear you running 200 ft away ima drop to the nearest bush and shoot you from behind when you run by

[reef apex]

Lmao, It seems like I cant hear anyone, yet the minute I turn the corner im headshot and looking at a screen saying dead.

[slender python]

want to do some runs? dont need a gun ill run with you or do a quickj scav and grab one or i can scav with ya idc

[reef apex]

Alright. Im down. scav run?

[blazing heron]

do i sell those

[slender python]

im down iill invite ya

[wind gulch]

can craft them to backpacks

[slender python]

if youre low level save em and trade em for backpacks

fleece and ripstop is x2 scav backpacks

[toxic barn]

im a good shot looking for someone to take me too woods for some quest

[civic scaffold]

is this key worth keeping or should i sell it?

also what map is that key for?

[limpid wraith]

Interchange

Its ight

[civic scaffold]

why does it sell for 600k?

[limpid wraith]

Good spawns

[civic scaffold]

so should i sell it on flea or keep it and use it?

[celest flax]

this key is for shoreline any key that is east or west is for shoreline

[mild ruin]

Am i aloud to ask for some help in this chat. Needing help with learning the maps and shown the ropes.

[timber dagger]

hey i need help

gunsmith 3 wont accept my ak74u

i did it as the mission says and it doesnt work

[velvet mason]

fold it @timber dagger

anyone wanna do customs quests ?

[blazing heron]

i need help organizing my stash

backpack and rigs are full of stuff

but i have normal game so i have the smallest stash

[velvet mason]

if u take the mag and pistol grip off guns they become 1x

helps alot

also sell the trash ones

[tranquil anchor]

When wipes happen I know stash is gone. Money I’m assuming as well is gone. What about the hideout and quests ?

[blazing heron]

which are trash

[velvet mason]

id keep afew aks and the sks to use

maybe the mp5

hunter is good

also if ur standard account i wouldnt hold onto much that isnt for furute quests found in raid

sell everything else

[autumn crater]

Im fairly new to the game, but now Im beggining to run low on money. Any good way to get money?

[lone fox]

Looking to get some help finding Jaeger's message... i've ran all over woods with a map up in offline... but some how somewhere i get turned around and cant ever seem to find the plane..

[bold kernel]

What do i do if I cant find my docs case which has all my keys

[tranquil anchor]

You can sort by container and then try to find that wa

Way

[blazing heron]

i dont have flea market yet do i save paracord or sell them to therapist

[bold kernel]

Who sells labs keycards now and at what level?

[violet junco]

is this game worth to play

[hushed cipher]

any problems with gunsmith part 6? I have all the parts and mag removed and it still wont get taken

[arctic hatch]

how you should heal yourself after raid ?
i got dc and now gave me this

loading ....

[harsh nexus]

@arctic hatch In your inventory use the medical items to heal up

Just like how you'd heal in a match

[languid flare]

Everything is gone.
Its a wipe.
Not a soft reset.

[oblique tulip]

What is the best map to run for beginners? customs?

[silver sparrow]

ye

[earnest orbit]

customs is brutal for noobs but has all the starter quests in it

[compact hound]

i just did 416 damage to clutchqt's armor and 348 health damage and they still didnt go down like wtf hahahahaha

[naive depot]

it happens

[compact hound]

i mean i didnt even hear them breathing heavily or yell from getting hurt so much just straight took it turned then killed me haha

[naive depot]

@compact hound

this was me vs killa with AP SX in my mp7 once

he has 890 HP

[upper glacier]

guys, i have two mil, really struggle with space in my inventory should I buy junkbox?

[hot tree]

@upper glacier yes they are very nice to use

[bold kernel]

If it'll help save space...

[upper glacier]

is this junk?

@bold kernel

[knotty finch]

save the car battery

you can put backpacks inside backpacks btw @upper glacier

[upper glacier]

this is in my backpacks

[burnt grail]

Whats the easiest way to get this damn 3 PMC kills with a pistol quest? I cant even kill a pmc hardly with a fully kitted gun 😦

[sand wolf]

run reserve pistol runs if u wanna do the quest whilst also making money or best bet is customs/factory

[upper glacier]

my luck was factory

[sand wolf]

customs is a bunch of low level noobs and factory has other pistol runners

[thorn crypt]

go factory for stirrup

[sand wolf]

and if ur lucky a hatching idiot rushing safe at office

[burnt grail]

Do i really need to come in fully armor'd with a pistol? I feel like thats wasting money with just a pistol

[thorn crypt]

just go in with a paca and an m9

[burnt grail]

ok

[sand wolf]

or a sr1mp or five seven

they op

[thorn crypt]

you’ll definitely die a few times but you sort of gotta grind it out.

[undone lynx]

You could just pistol run your early quest. You won’t knock them out as fast as straight factory but between early customs and woods you’ll get it done in a few raids.

[thorn crypt]

get a luck HS on a geared player or run into a naked trying to quest.

[undone lynx]

Spawning by big red on customs always gets me atleast one.

[steep jay]

can someone go into factory with me real quick and help me finish the delivery from the past quest

[thorn crypt]

it also helps if you understand the main sections on factory, there’s like 2 or 3 sections that always have a fight right off spawn.

[burnt grail]

Thanks guys, ill be workin on it all night i feel like lol

[steep jay]

can someone go into factory with me real quick and help me finish the delivery from the past quest

[maiden bough]

Can someone help me out with some beginnners tasks bronze pocket watch hidden water dorms and prapors convoy in woods

[keen sluice]

[little wave]

hey what happens to my inventory if i upgrade to EOD ?

[astral dust]

Do the maps from medic do anything if I buy them whats thier purpose

[spare robin]

[late temple]

@astral dust Yes, I’m looking to play

[flat kelp]

As a new player, what is the best way to get started

[late temple]

Any players looking to do factory runs with a potentially new player?

[next estuary]

Anyone help me with the beginner tasks? dm me EU

[late temple]

@flat kelp According to Pestily, grab 4 other people and do PMC raids in Factory

[bronze stratus]

I have this state of mind that I think the games are too short, any way to change this?

[plush quest]

can anyone help me finish delivery from the past and prapors convoy

i dont have the key and i dont know factory

[late temple]

gaming, you don’t need any key, we’re gonna go the back exit

we plan to have 5 PMC’s

[plush quest]

i mean the first part

and the second

you need a key for the first right?

[late temple]

i thought there was an extract you didn’t need a key for?

[plush quest]

the first part of the task in customs

[late temple]

ohhh i’m talking about factory haha

[harsh nexus]

You get more stash space, items stay the same.

[thorn crypt]

gate 3 is the extract you’re talking about

[lusty glacier]

how do i know when my insured items are coming back

[little wave]

it dosent tell u

[little wave]

u just gotta hope they do

[lusty glacier]

if they arent looted, are they guaranteed to come back?

[little wave]

probably i have never lost an item that wasent looted

[lusty glacier]

aight good cos like i cant survive as PMC

[agile forge]

Any items that aren’t extracted will come back

[lusty glacier]

playing scav is just fine but if im a PMC ill get one tapped by a scav in best case scenario

this game works in mysterious ways

[little wave]

happens to all of us

[silver hornet]

If you insure with Prapor, insurance items will return within 24-36 hours.

[opal gust]

i need to spend 800k with skiier
what is the cheapest way to do that

what can i buy from flea and sell to him at a minimal loss

[novel geode]

guns maybe or some parts and some wearables

[lusty glacier]

what does "all subsequent dlcs" mean for edge of darkness?

[plush quest]

you will get all dlc that gets released

i think thats what it means

[hollow forge]

Can someone help me with doing search mission for prapor?

[silver hornet]

[vale wave]

how much does a green keycard go for?

[rich basin]

@vale wave on flea market when you try and list a item it shows the average price. You can use that price to see what the item is selling for

Flea market usually gives the most for the rarer items

[vale wave]

alright, I'll give it a go when I unlock it

[rich basin]

yeah same with graphics cards

They sell for like 250k on flea market but only 100k on mechanic

[upper iron]

4 million at the moment

[honest field]

rip

[tender kernel]

[main badge]

[carmine gust]

Village on shoreline has a lot

[regal plover]

I got 3 from drawers already. "The National" store in IC has 4 filing cabinets next to each other. I scav to those for all my drawer-related needs.

Very rarely looted

[plush quest]

theres like 8 filing cabinets and 4 jackets in crack house on customs i think

is that whats its called?

[main badge]

thank you

i will try both

[regal plover]

What?

[plush quest]

its called crack house right?

[mint ruin]

anyone trying to carry a noob through tasks

[plush quest]

[rugged yacht]

Should I keep the garbage christmas gun?

[carmine gust]

farm filing cabinets, stashes or the interchange tech stores

[agile forge]

@plush quest also, look on the shelves in Oli at Interchange

[iron garnet]

[plush quest]

@iron garnet dont you also have to kill killa 100 times?

[iron garnet]

[plush quest]

[bold kernel]

did they change the tables for ground caches? i see alot of new stuff

[carmine gust]

yeah it's all overhauled.

[flat kelp]

I keep trying to play as a Scav and I keep getting killed 5 seconds after I spawn

What am I supposed to do to avoid that type of shit?

[rustic helm]

Bug out ASAP but that's about it

[undone lynx]

sounds like you are scavving factory lol

[barren oasis]

thats what i was about to say

[flat kelp]

yeah i am should i be scavving on a different map?

[rustic helm]

Try Customs

[barren oasis]

try shoreline or Forrest

[rustic helm]

Just don't go resort lol

[undone lynx]

no. thats just how factory is. It can be rough as a scav

i mean do any map but factory is small and pmcs can be rough

[bold kernel]

did they just add most items to caches this list is way longer than i remember. https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ground_cache

i know its updated but thats alot

[languid flare]

Was already like this half of last wipe

[bold kernel]

that explains it i stopped playing mid wipe last time

[stable isle]

Thank you!

[dire rock]

np

[stable isle]

Been running around offline for the last hour confused out of my mind

[dire rock]

yeah took me a while to get the hang of it as well

[stable isle]

So that minefield all along the west wall, is that the only area with mines?

[dire rock]

no, as far as i know everywhere thats out of the map is a minefield

had a friend hit one going to outskirts because they took out the wall

[stable isle]

yikes

[dire rock]

yeah, funny as hell to hear people hit them in raid though

[stable isle]

not so funny being the one getting his legs blown off

[dire rock]

luckily i havent hit one

[stable isle]

Is scav bunker the one with the giant radio tower sticking out of it?

[timber fulcrum]

If i get tarkov would someone be willing to teach me how to play and play with me and guide me through my first few raids?

[wintry storm]

is it better to hand in the documents to therapist or to skier?? I think i fucked up and handed it to therapist without realising would of got 200K but instead i got 70K and now skier is on -0.14

[lilac ember]

anyone got a map for customs

[worn condor]

I have come here for the sole purpose of asking if items bought from merchants disappearing into the shadow realms is a normal occurrence

[ember torrent]

does woods spawn everyone near something noticeable on a map

or is there a time where u will be put legit in the fucking woods and the only thing u can do is run

[languid flare]

Well, depending how familiar you are with woods...
You spawn in 'mostly' wood spots, but if you know Woods you can figure it out

[bold kernel]

Can anyone help me my Tarkov doens have any sound

[ember torrent]

@languid flare ty

[worn condor]

I'd tell you to check if you turned sounds off but you probably already did

[bold kernel]

I can hear discord and other games it is just Tarkov

[worn condor]

interesting

[carmine gust]

Check windows volume mixer?

[long heath]

hey guys first run, I just have a pistol and extra mag some meds mre and water

do I bring anything else?

[willow hare]

for

[long heath]

just my first run in the game ever, pmc

[rotund parrot]

HOW DO I PLAY

im soooo confused

[pearl plume]

Woods is so difficult lmao
I was trying to find Jager's letter
Ran into a duo and got killed
Then I was sniped in the next one

[rotund parrot]

lol i got sniped first game

[pearl plume]

Have you tried some offline raid?
Would recommend Customs as most of the beginner quests are there

[long heath]

oh I didn't know the quests could be completed offline hm

[pearl plume]

No you can't

I mean it would be better to get familiar with the map first

[long heath]

ah fair

[pearl plume]

And pistols are not that good imo, but you can try to get the hang of it

Need to click on heads all the time

[long heath]

well yeah, i'd suspect they aren't great but I'd rather that than run in blind with my m4

[pearl plume]

yeah that's what I did at first

[long heath]

I'm sure I'm gonna get shit on, I'm ready haha

[pearl plume]

you don't have to bring food or water

just meds

[long heath]

oh you don't? okay.

What's the purpose?

[pearl plume]

because usually you will die soon enough XD

[long heath]

oh pfft haha

well i'm deploying in 10, i'll let ya know

[pearl plume]

should be enough to last you a whole raid in smaller maps like customs

[vital burrow]

i cant install the game when i just bought it, the download speed has been insanely slow taking me over multiple days of attempting to download Tarkov only to be greeted when the download completes with saying "Invalid Disc Space" when I have beyond enough disc space and then appearing with yet another error like game update installation error, making me attempt to download the game over multiple days again. The download process has been so painstakingly terrible but even when it completes it has errors and the game isnt downloaded. I just want to play the game or atleast get my money back. Please help!

[earnest orbit]

Is your normal download speed better? The tarkov downloader is usually quite fast

[long heath]

I literally walked out of the spawn and got headshot

[vital burrow]

i get 50mbps

[long heath]

excuse me? lol

[pearl plume]

which map?

[vital burrow]

im in oce and i usually get 50mbps

[earnest orbit]

Customs will do that @long heath

[long heath]

uhh the one some beginner guide suggested

yeah customs

[vital burrow]

so annoyed rn

[pearl plume]

yeah I just hid in a bush for 5 mins on customs

[earnest orbit]

@vital burrow how much space free do you have?

[vital burrow]

i just wanna play the game i bought

[pearl plume]

then you should be good to move around

[vital burrow]

75gb

[long heath]

like i stepped outside shot some guy at a crate with a shotgun and got sniped from Zimbabwe by someone else

[pearl plume]

could be sniper scav?

[long heath]

No idea don't even know where the shot came from

[earnest orbit]

That should be plenty

[long heath]

sounded like a large caliber round and it was definitely from far out lol

[pearl plume]

If you don't know where that came from, then I think it's sniper scav

There are several on the map

[long heath]

that's rough lol

[vital burrow]

so why does it take 10 hours and then when it finishes have errors

and then isnt installed

[long heath]

@pearl plume should I scav?
