[leaden goblet]

I make about 500k+ a run off it

[ruby stag]

Whats a good way to get xp?

[leaden goblet]

Killing scavs or PMC's, also quests give decent XP

[ruby stag]

Trying to figure a way to level to 10 I want to buy and sell things T_T

[leaden goblet]

If you have money I'd run Factory and kill scavs/pmc's

If you don't I'd run a map with a scav boss

Killing rashala and his goons gives a decent amount of XP

[ruby stag]

Hmm any one want to show me where Rashala lives XD

[leaden goblet]

Customs 😛

Dorms and the newer Gas Station

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Reshala#Location

[ruby stag]

Any one wanna do some customs with a newbie?

[storm merlin]

i need someone to get better with

bc im really dumb

[bold nacelle]

[storm merlin]

[torpid wind]

5 man raids

[bold kernel]

Anyone wanna play im new but i know the basics

[reef parcel]

when buying jaegers compass do you keep it forever?

[upper iron]

don't buy his compass dude

Prapor gives you one for free for doing one of his early quests...

[reef parcel]

ok ty

[silver hornet]

to answer your question, no, you do not lose it, if/when you die.

[upper iron]

But you do lose it, if you have it in your inventory, but if it's equipped, like a melee weapon, it'll stay forever

[polar current]

Is anyone else getting the glitch where stuff isnt found in raid?

[silver hornet]

give us more details if you can please

what items, how you got them, etc

[upper iron]

Dying with things up your booty = not found in raid, player gear = not found in raid

[polar current]

I got some keys as a scav and when I extracted some of my items were found in raid others were not

[leaden goblet]

@polar current if you get a run through or arent in for more than 10 minutes it isn't FIR

[silver hornet]

Scavs usually spawn late enough to not get a runthrough

[leaden goblet]

Some items could be brought in by players hence not FIr

[harsh aspen]

does skier pay the most for anything yet?

[polar current]

I spawned in with a key and a tank shell. I extract and my OFZ is FIR but the shoreline key I got isnt

thats a glitch right @leaden goblet

[silver hornet]

nope

[toxic barn]

any exp players want to let me tag along for the extra help im not bad just keep running into squads

[spare adder]

just got the game, no clue what im doing someone come thru for a homie 😉

[barren sapphire]

[fiery tiger]

lfg to help a returning player not be overwhelmed

[barren sapphire]

[wind harbor]

looking for tips for a new solo player

[sweet kiln]

DM me if want to play in AUS

[hoary yacht]

😄

good builds for this one?

[formal crater]

Why are most of my items no longer found in raid?

I definitely found these in a raid

[hoary yacht]

if you die they dont count as "found in a raid"

[formal crater]

If I die I wouldn't have them anymore though

[hoary yacht]

🤷‍♂️

you could have them in the stash thingy

[formal crater]

Nah it's full guns that I couldn't fit

Does loot I get as a scav not count as found in raid?

[bold kernel]

ya

[bold kernel]

its found in raid XD

[formal crater]

Oh wait, is it because I switched the parts around?

[plush quest]

@reef parcel dont buy the compass though

[bold kernel]

yes

[plush quest]

you get it from prapor quest

[formal crater]

lmao

[plush quest]

and its 20k on flea

jaeger sells for 200k

[bold kernel]

were the parts founf in raid?

found

[formal crater]

Yeah but some of them might not have been

[bold kernel]

thats it then

XD

[formal crater]

Not sure at this point, I was just swapping stuff around

Makes sense

[bold kernel]

wanna dom some raids @formal crater

do*

[formal crater]

For sure

[burnt grail]

If I try to play tarkov on my laptop (on WiFi) it will load up the game but any time I try to do anything in the game (etc. sell any item, turn on/off generator, collect items in hideout) I get a "backend error" and my whole laptop disconnects from the internet. The game will take about 45 seconds to a minute to load back up to the starting screen, where the internet will re-connect by itself. Anyone else ever seen this? Im just tryna turn off my generator at work so I can not waste it 😦

[lavish ridge]

That might be a problem on battlestategames' side

[burnt grail]

dang that sucks. I was hoping it was something with my internet maybe that i could fix

[lavish ridge]

I mean I am no tech support but that's what it could be. Also could be the connection isn't strong enough

so try to go as close to the router as you can

Error messages usually don't explain in detail what the issue is, so it isn't mostly your fault.

[burnt grail]

Hmm ok. Ive been able to do scav runs sporadically during free time on this internet. This is the second time now i have this issue and idk really what the problem is. I dont see anything that stands out

[bold kernel]

This is my first big raid, ill do it at night. Should i insure

[hoary yacht]

dont use the nightvision

that shit go for 200k

[lavish ridge]

Could be a game issue @burnt grail . If you can do scav runs fine then it could be needing a reinstall.

[bold kernel]

Oof

[hoary yacht]

what level are you

[lavish ridge]

Oh wait nevermind, If it disconnects you from your internet afterwards then it could also be a laptop issue

[burnt grail]

I mean. Sometimes i can do runs okay, sometimes i cant even collect crafted items

[lavish ridge]

Yeah then I have no idea

[burnt grail]

on the same internet at different times

[lavish ridge]

What's your internet speed?

[bold kernel]

@hoary yacht 9

[lavish ridge]

Because at some hours of the day internet speeds are slower and faster depending on traffic in your area

[burnt grail]

8 down 10 up

[lavish ridge]

MBps or GBps?

Megabites or Gigabites

[burnt grail]

Mbps

They make internet over 1 GBPs now? Damn

[lavish ridge]

Well

[hoary yacht]

keep it if you want for lvl 10 and sell it for 200k

[lavish ridge]

I'm in Australia, and our internet is sometimes worse than Afghanistan's

so it depends where you are

[hoary yacht]

you got gpnvg-18?

[burnt grail]

I am in alaska trying to play yeah. That prolly has something to do with it i guess

Especially on wifi

[lavish ridge]

I get around 10MBps download if we are being realistic

on stupid websites it says i'm getting 40MBps download

@hoary yacht You quoted the wrong person ://

[hoary yacht]

huh? xD

[night mural]

Also he can't sell the nightvision because it isnt found in raid

Its part of the new years gift

[barren sapphire]

at what time are maps getting dark/sunrise?

[upper iron]

I would say 6pm to 6 am is darkest

You can cut it close with 6:30 pm or 18:30

[hushed holly]

Would you guys recommend just selling these weapons: Gear fear is an issue and I feel like I will never take them out.

To vendor ofcourse ;p they aren't found in raid

[frozen sundial]

@hushed holly if u have gear fear i suggest selling those and buy a cheaper build

[hushed holly]

Even to vendors? it feels like such a waste, in some way

[frozen sundial]

ye its a big waste coz it will roughly get u 200k i believe

[hushed holly]

Or might ti be worth taking things apart

and making some cheaper guns out of them?

[frozen sundial]

@hushed holly are u confident on ur map knowledge or game knowledge yet

[hushed holly]

Yeah somewhat ;p

[plush quest]

are there anything i can use instead of these

[frozen sundial]

if u have good map knowledge u can just use it and try just snowball tasks

[plush quest]

for gunsmith pt 2

[frozen sundial]

u dont have skier 2?

[plush quest]

no

[frozen sundial]

i can fence u some

[plush quest]

sure

[frozen sundial]

do u know how it works? just wait in the flea

[hushed holly]

Is there anyway to put some of the stuff on different ak's @frozen sundial Like take the grip and sights etc off?

[frozen sundial]

ill fence the zenit first

[plush quest]

yea k

[hushed holly]

Like I got some ak's :p

[frozen sundial]

ill sell it in 5 seconds be ready

@plush quest

sold

u got it ? @plush quest

[plush quest]

nope

fuck

[frozen sundial]

i sold 3

ill sell more

[plush quest]

wait

so

i search item on flea and wait for you to sell

?

[frozen sundial]

no ill sell it to fence and fence will sell it in the market for cheaper

[hazy aurora]

how do u auto sort stash ?

[plush quest]

so i watch fence?

[frozen sundial]

no just search zenit pt-1 @plush quest and keep on refreshing

u ready @plush quest

[plush quest]

dosent show up

do i keep refreshing

and wait

[hushed holly]

type in zenit

[frozen sundial]

no search the first item zenit pt-1

zenit or something

[plush quest]

dont show up

[frozen sundial]

oh u havent examined it yet

[frozen sundial]

yes u can remove some parts of it like the scope and grips

[plush quest]

someones just gonna give it to me in a raid

so nvm

[frozen sundial]

okok sry

[hushed holly]

ergh why is weapon building so complicated in tarkov

never know why stuff doesnt fit and such

[frozen sundial]

@hushed holly its pretty complicated yes but its good once u get hang of it

if ur trying to use that ak parts on different ak make sure u have the right ak since ther are like 6 kinds of ak

[hushed holly]

maybe something like this?

or this :p

[frozen sundial]

depends on what u like how much recoil u can control etc

[hushed holly]

I have done this now

I think this works

They aren't overly expensive, I think now

[frozen sundial]

inspect it so u can see the recoil and stuff

[hushed holly]

This good?

[night mural]

The 74m is manageable full auto but not ideal, akmn I wouldnt even attempt to auto.

[hushed holly]

Maybe I should look into gun building more, probably would bring me a lot ;p

[upper iron]

Any newer people want to scav? I will let you take most of the loot I just don't like playing alone =D

[atomic lintel]

do i get to keep the track suit after wipes?

[night mural]

You do not

[atomic lintel]

:_(

[modern mesa]

how tf do spend 750k w ragman without it taking a millennia

[carmine gust]

selling to him counts too so selling all the rigs, armor and backpack you get.

gets much easier to spend with him at level 2 because the 6b3tm armored rig is great.

[night mural]

And if you have money to burn, buy items from him just to sell them back. You lose about half of everything you spend but it gets that spending up quick

[agile raft]

isn't ragman the 2nd easiest trader ot level up since you can buy the paca and beginner helm from him everytime you do a run pre flea market?

that's what i did at least

[eternal pivot]

Hey! is there like a straight-forward guide on what to do as a first timer? I recently bought the game a few hours ago

[visual garden]

Alfa, Same. Ive been watching some youtube vids and its helped. But i wouldn't mind a guid either lol

[carmine gust]

I think watching Pestily's 100 tips video and then find a play through series from a streamer/YTer you like to get the first couple tasks down should do you well

[eternal pivot]

Yup! I'd be helpful to look into somewhat a handbook from time to time.

[eternal pivot]

Thanks! noted

[wise grove]

anyone got white christmas balls to trade?

[bold kernel]

whats the best map for running for loot?

i've just been doing customs on scav as its easy to escape lol

[carmine gust]

Interchange and reserve have great loot. Reserves scav extracts are way better than the PMC ones.

[bold kernel]

oo ty gonna try reserve

[hoary yacht]

what goes through someones head when they camp in a bush?

Honestly, how bad can you be lmao

[carmine gust]

[hoary yacht]

[hushed holly]

What are the best maps to farm for money?

[patent scarab]

guys anyone want to the task supply plans with me??

[patent scarab]

reserve.....

[hushed holly]

But reserve is so hard tho, right?

[carmine gust]

pain killer or wait it out for the concussion I think@hoary yacht

[patent scarab]

i would say its the best for money, but if your not comfortable with reserve maybe interchange

[hushed holly]

Not comfortable with either :P

[hoary yacht]

nothing i can use to heal it during battle?

[hushed holly]

Might aswell learn reserve than

Just gonna be a money sink untill i understand

[hoary yacht]

i use selwa it doesn't help either

[patent scarab]

i would then stick to customs, there is some decent money out there also

[patent scarab]

????

[carmine gust]

do you have a pain killer?

[hoary yacht]

yes i used it

i had 4 used all of them didnt help

[hushed holly]

I play a lot of customs, but never really find the big money. Might not be at the right locations tho

[patent scarab]

just wait dizzyness goes away in like couple mins

[hoary yacht]

Oki, thanks

any other medical supplents that i can take into raids?

[patent scarab]

try kill reshala alone or with a team, i killed him last time got a bitcoin worth of 400k and labs keycard

[hoary yacht]

what is hermos for for instance?

[hushed holly]

I have never tried killing reshala :P

That hard?

[carmine gust]

@hoary yacht hemostat is for heavy bleeds

[hoary yacht]

cool, and bandages?

[carmine gust]

light bleeds

[patent scarab]

this is what my heal setup is rn

but sometimes i take the ifak out and replace it with a salewa

[hoary yacht]

ill follow it, tyvm

[hushed holly]

Why don't you take a salewa @patent scarab ?

[patent scarab]

you can replace surv kit for cms aswell

[patent scarab]

just because it takes some place in my gamma

i love ifak

[hoary yacht]

i dont think i can afford that one, i got the normal version of the game

[patent scarab]

ok then

i would do this

do you have flea?

[hoary yacht]

yes

i got kash tho, big man ting

[patent scarab]

stick with customs

[potent maple]

ive been doing scav customs, only managed to extract twice out of like 15

[void brook]

yeah i hae figured that much out myself ahaha, but i need these quests done so im looking for people to play with

[potent maple]

within 5 minutes id just get killed

or when im close to extract

[steel grove]

youll learn where hotspots and safer routes are over time

game is insanely hard at the start

but only gets easier from there

[orchid inlet]

this game is so tough, i just dont understand so much #

big learning curve

[void brook]

anyone want to play now, i am EU?

[steel grove]

feel free to ask about anything

[orchid inlet]

i just struggle from the ground up im not good at solo lol

i just get demolished

[potent maple]

^

[orchid inlet]

what level are you?

[potent maple]

im a kick ass player in arma, pubg etc, except this bloody game. its way too hard to survive as a beginner and its really killing my experience with this game.

[hoary yacht]

[void brook]

[blazing heron]

which attachments do i need for gunsmith part 1

[bold kernel]

hello is anyone now where i can kill most of all USEC ?

[steel grove]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Gunsmith_-_Part_1

you can check all the gunsmith part requirements on the wiki

[steel grove]

factory can be an easy way to do it

[bold kernel]

ok

[patent scarab]

this is weather station right? on shoreline

[steel grove]

no this is pier

ure on the southeast on this map here

sorry the spot is called crane not pier

weather station is to your left based off of the screenshot you sent

[pliant monolith]

Should I sell the keys to therapist or should I hold on till I can sell em on Flea?

[hoary yacht]

fleaaa

look up tarkov market online to see how much they are worth

i know its a pain in da ass to wait but some go for 100k plus

just a quick question, can you kill a scav boss while being a scaV?

[carmine gust]

yeah but it is hard

[mortal marlin]

@pliant monolith Ddpends on tasks you completed. However the keys I would 100% keep from those are the folding key and the sixpack. The Westwing 306 is very expensive and crucial for an important task line (if you want a thicc case), The 216 has a ton of loot in it as does the tape key. Factory key is a good key to have if you intend to run a lot of factory/customs, ZB-014 is good to have for ice cream cones task and an additional extract on woods, if you intend to run reserve then keep the RB-VO key

[carmine gust]

They will shoot you on site same as when you are a PMC@hoary yacht

[hoary yacht]

How about the scav boss at woods?

he has no armor etc

[mortal marlin]

Also check how close you are to those tasks which require some of the keys you have. If it is too far sell them. If you are close to them then keep it

[pliant monolith]

I am not close to the tasks But thanks alot 🙂

[ancient falcon]

idk if this was legit or not. I was standing right here and got headshotted out of nowhere. at 1:30 https://youtu.be/U2s6ZaPttak?t=90

[steel grove]

san 306 should be around 500k on flea

san 216 and tape you should keep since they arent FiR

[pliant monolith]

Thanks

[summer leaf]

Was it a PMC or scav?

That's sniper scav rock, so someone might've seen you and just popped a shot off. Really normal spot to look up at.

[floral mauve]

should i sell my fuel conditioner and sugar now or save it till it gets more expensive?

[summer leaf]

The answer is always simple for these questions I feel.

Do you need money?

If so, yes. If no, no.

[floral mauve]

i do yes

will it take long for it to go back up

wasnt sugar nearing 100k last wipe?

[summer leaf]

70k around, but that's because of moonshine

Sugar is used in the moonshine craft, majority of players don't have it unlocked yet. Therefore less demand, less money, yada yada.

[tough zodiac]

should i be using moonshine or intelligence folders for scav

[bold kernel]

Moonshine

[carmine gust]

Moonshine had best kappa item returns last wipe I think.

[floral mauve]

will igolnik go up in price too or is it more stable?

[carmine gust]

It will go up. Not much need for the pen at the moment so BS is better now. All the top tier high pen ammo will probably go up later in wipe

[plush quest]

which is better?

i have a suppresor for the apb

[bold kernel]

what is the fastest way of leveling up?

[plush quest]

tasks @bold kernel

[floral mauve]

do tassks

[bold kernel]

ok thanks

[void brook]

i just found in raid bitcoin what should i do

[floral mauve]

god, what of this stuff should i sell, keep for later, leave for hideout

[plush quest]

put in container

@void brook

[floral mauve]

[bold kernel]

sell to therapist

[plush quest]

430k

[void brook]

thats what i was thinking

[plush quest]

no sell to mechanic lol

isnt he better

[night mural]

Therapist pays more for bitcoin

[void brook]

not for stuff like bitcoin

[plush quest]

really?

thought it was mechanic

[night mural]

Therapist for stuff like bitcoin and dog tags

[void brook]

nope electronics sell to theripoist better

[bold kernel]

This maybe a dumb question but how do i put a specific amount of roubles in a wallet?

[short fern]

any beginners want to come with me to interchange?

[short fern]

Hold ctrl

[plush quest]

ctrl click and drag

[bold kernel]

the wallet is red when i do that

[night mural]

Stuff like the TP, paper, oatflakes aren't needed for hideout upgrades or quests. Some may be used in crafting if you want to save them for making stuff

[short fern]

It's full

[bold kernel]

its empty

[night mural]

Where is the wallet and how much you trying to put in

[short fern]

Oh you have to eith drag to the slot in the wallet or other empty space

[bold kernel]

wallet is in stach and roubles are in stash. Trying to put 3k for evac woods

ohh h ok

[night mural]

Should work if wallet is empty

[bold kernel]

TY that worked 😉

[short fern]

No you can't do it to the wallet item only to slots in wallet

[night mural]

You can't drag roubles to the wallet icon?

[dim ermine]

is there meant to be "buy" button oin the dealers?

[short fern]

I don't think so, also partly assuming thats why they couldn't

[night mural]

You should be able to

[dim ermine]

also I'd love to try interchange, but I need to buy meds first

[bold kernel]

Yeah matt is right you have to open it and drag to a slot

[night mural]

That must be a bug

You should absolutely just be able to drag the money onto the icon as long as the wallet has an empty slot

[bold kernel]

Lol im just happy its in there now. took me forever to figure out what was going on

[short fern]

Or just something they didn't care about bc they hate us lol

[night mural]

Nah I'm sure its worked properly in the past

[night mural]

If you click on an item in the traders inventory you'll see a 'fill requirement' or something to that effect at the bottom

Then a buy button at the top

[dim ermine]

oh my god, that's a button. IT's just the word "deal" >.<

[night mural]

Yeah haha

[jagged raft]

Hello. I am new to Tarkov. Any EU available to help me out?

I'm getting the hang of it but still dying most of the time

[night mural]

Try #pvp-lfg

[jagged raft]

Thanks 🙂 was looking for the sherpa people though

[dim ermine]

@jagged raft I'd offer, but I've been playing for literally 5 minutes

[jagged raft]

sure, noob group? I'm down

[night mural]

Try #sherpa-info

[carmine gust]

the sherpa hub is linked in #sherpa-info

[short fern]

I'm learning the secret to tarkov is just don't try to hard seems like the slower I go the better my raid goes

[night mural]

Ink to the sherpas channel

In there

[summer leaf]

Sprinting is really audible, anyone wearing a headset will hear you and whip towards you

So sometimes taking it slow is for the best >:3

[jagged raft]

Factory the best map if you're an impatient gamer, right

[night mural]

Playing slow is sometimes a death sentence though, aggression can catch people off guard

[jagged raft]

and the rest if you have more time to play?

[night mural]

Factory is a faster map in the sense its less players and much smaller yeah

[barren sapphire]

can i buy the key that opens up office in customs red warehouse from flea market, or does it have to be FIR?

[night mural]

Nope you can buy it

Fairly cheap as well now

[bold kernel]

I need help to hunt USEC anyone wants to help me pls ? I am trying to kill USEC on factory but, i kept dying 😢 The task : Friend from the west side . part 1 i need over 6 kills and i am done

[barren sapphire]

i have a "cabin key" for customs

however i cant use it on the specific door

it still says "breach"

weird

[night mural]

Is it the right cabin key? There's 2

One plain silver and one with a grey handle

2 different cabins with 2 different keys

[dim ermine]

is there a way to just surrender to the blood loss, so I don't have to spend 5 minutes bleeding to death?

[misty pebble]

Hey does anyone want to get into kiba with me?

a sherpa?

i have both the keys

[night mural]

You could disconnect from the raid I suppose, you wouldn't get insurance back unless you dropped all your gear before doing it though.

[dim ermine]

@night mural I ran into a scav and died, so it's all good ^_^

[summer leaf]

That's the spirit! ^

[dim ermine]

tbf, I'm basically just doing solo offline play atm, so I don't lose anything, and scavving when I can, but I'm not expecting to actually survive anything

[night mural]

Offline is a fantastic way to learn the maps

don't be scared to mix it in with some online runs once you're comfortable about extracts though.

[hot tree]

scavs are still scary

[night mural]

Shotgun scavs are deadlier than sniper scavs 👀

[bold kernel]

Do you lose compass if you die?

[hot tree]

scav looked at me for like 2 secconds head,eyes

no

[night mural]

You don't lose the compass

[short fern]

I didn't mean sprinting

[hushed holly]

Why isn't this working for gunsmith part 2?

[carmine gust]

tried folded?

[summer leaf]

Fold the stock

[hushed holly]

Thanks!

[hoary yacht]

how would one drop ~~everything ~~ things instantly in the menu?

[carmine gust]

delete is the default key.

[night mural]

in raid? Default is delete.

[carmine gust]

I would rebind it

[hoary yacht]

Great,

ill tho, my delete key is far awya

[carmine gust]

Yeah I use U

[night mural]

Yeah, most people rebind it to something closer

[hoary yacht]

§

this one is good

[short hare]

is this the right type of ammo?

[summer leaf]

Yeah

SKS had a top loaded mag, so you can load them in loose

[short hare]

I tried finding a mag

[summer leaf]

Also, if you double click or inspect the weapon, take out the internal box and put ammo in.

[short hare]

I bought 3 but none of them are for the sks

[summer leaf]

The gun is like the M1 Garand, internal magazine.

[hoary yacht]

can i add a sight on this one?

[short hare]

So I can't buy a mag for it?

[hoary yacht]

like a red dot or something

[summer leaf]

Not at your level currently, later you can.

[summer leaf]

You need to kit it out, is that the AKM Vepr?

[hoary yacht]

Veper KM

[short hare]

okay thx

[dim ermine]

what does it mean when it's says "matching"? I've been waiting to load in for 5 minutes now, and I'm not looking for group. I just want to scav and likely get shot

[night mural]

Just to clarify, it has a mag, 10 rounds internal. you load it by either removing it and dragging the rounds into the mag or you leave the mag in and load into a raid with loose ammo and press R which will load the rounds in through to top of the gun. You can't currently buy bigger external mags for it though.

[summer leaf]

If you click on optics and mods, there should be a "compatible with" tag, just mouse over the little arrow and it'll tell you what guns it fits on.

Try the optics you get from Prapor, some might fit, can't remember if the VEPR KM has a dovetail mount

[mighty shoal]

whats a good way to get a red rebel?

[summer leaf]

Shturman farming, but its a pretty rare drop

[hoary yacht]

where is that exactly? I cant find optics and mods

[mighty shoal]

oh ok thanks

[summer leaf]

Give me a second, I'll boot up my game and check..

[hoary yacht]

ah thank you very much

[night mural]

@hoary yacht Do you have the workbench unlocked in hideout?

[summer leaf]

Okay. Unless you have a handguard with the top rail, or a dust cover replacement, I don't believe you can at lvl 1 traders.

[hoary yacht]

yes

[night mural]

You can 'edit preset' on the gun if you have workbench and see the gun with any attachments you want

[hoary yacht]

one sec

fixed

tyvm guys!!!

[nocturne ice]

where do i get the mods to modify mp 133 for gunsmith part 1

[summer leaf]

I recommend saving up for the barter trade from Mechanic, it gives you almost all the parts needed

[nocturne ice]

what is that

[summer leaf]

The shotgun grip can be found on scavs or just in weapon boxes, rest you can purchase.

[nocturne ice]

what is barter trade

[summer leaf]

You need items, you trade with Mechanic for it.

[nocturne ice]

is it available on mechanic level 1

[summer leaf]

Something like 2 elite pliers, 1 screwdriver

Yeah

[nocturne ice]

what is it called

[nocturne ice]

ohhhh

well i need two elite pliers

[summer leaf]

You need the pistol grip for the stock and thats it I think..

You can also take off the top rail that has the sight on it, since the quest doesn't need it

[nocturne ice]

okay

where can i find elite pliers

[summer leaf]

Toolboxes, technical supply crates are probably your best bet

[carmine gust]

@nocturne ice if you look up an item on the wiki it will tell you the spawns.

[nocturne ice]

Okay thank you

[median kraken]

i would reccomend the cases on interchange, they're easy to hit in a scav

[short hare]

I got 2 obj

anyone knows where I am on the map of customs exactly?

passage between rocks and factory right corner

[summer leaf]

You're standing in trailer park

You need to cross the bridge, go to the far side of the map

[mighty shoal]

what would be the best server i can chose if i am in london to play with us people?

[summer leaf]

Factory far corner is in a straight line in front of you, far right corner, passage between rocks is sort of far left corner

[short hare]

um

[summer leaf]

Unless I'm going insane.

[short hare]

so I go straight?

[night mural]

You're at the opposite side of the map for them extracts

[short hare]

oh man

I'm dead then

[summer leaf]

You know the train?

[short hare]

I have no clue

[summer leaf]

Located past the big red warehouse, if you see the train, run past it and you'll see a bridge

[night mural]

Maybe red wasn't the right colour

[night mural]

hopefully you can see it

[summer leaf]

You is on the bottom LEFT corner

Arrow is aligned with the way you're looking in the screenshot

You got to go to the bottom right of the map (factory far corner) or top left corner (passage between rocks)

YOU'RE BOTTOM LEFT MY B

[short hare]

okay thanks

I'm gonna die but thank you

[summer leaf]

That's the spirit!

[modern mesa]

how do i get pain tremors easily (with a broken bone)

[night mural]

Don't use a splint whenever you get a fracture

no pain meds = tremors

[modern mesa]

if i black a leg will that work

[night mural]

Nope

[summer leaf]

Or get a buddy to load in with a crowbar and bonk you on the arm

[night mural]

All that will do is make you limp

[modern mesa]

anyone wanna hit me with a crowbar?

[languid flare]

@modern mesa broken limb (not black), dehydration or a few meds, but those only briefly.

Just play normally till you get a fracture and dont heal it

Also, Tremor sets in after 40 seconds, including after starting a fresh raid

[modern mesa]

alr

what meds do it

zagustin right?

[languid flare]

Uhh, propital does it for example.
But all of them with high delay and only very short time

Both fracture and dehydration is better and easier

[modern mesa]

alr ill buy some mayo

[hot tree]

what a pro

[hoary yacht]

this guy must be mad asss hell rn

[short hare]

WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME THAT IF I PLAY AS SCAV AND WIN THE GAME AND DON'T PUT MY LOOT IN IN THE STASH I LOSE EVERYTHING

OMG

[languid flare]

It literally warns you

[short hare]

I DIDN'T HAVE SPACE IN MY STASH AND I LOST EVERYTHING

omgggggggg

It took me 25 hours to actually win a game to not get anything

[summer leaf]

Sorry man

Did you not read the big text that shows up?

[ruby stag]

Any one up to help a newbie to walk a newbie in two quests in woods Introduction and Search Mission?

[short hare]

It didn't matter man

I had no space in my inv

ffs

[night mural]

no space = enough gear to not need to worry about the stuff you just lost?

Sounds like a win to me

[short hare]

all i have is shit tho

[night mural]

You could make plenty of space

[summer leaf]

Have you considered.. putting the ammo in the ammo box?

Use middle mouse click and you can fold the stocks on some guns

[short hare]

no i didn't know that I could put ammo in the ammo box

[night mural]

Thats... sarcasm? right?

[short hare]

i'm new?

what do u expect

[summer leaf]

[hot tree]

never thought about something what you could put inside that box?

[cedar cradle]

👀

[summer leaf]

Please put ammo in the ammo box.

[night mural]

Oh i wasn't trying to be rude, sarcasm is hard to get through the screen D:

[short hare]

it took me 20 hours to learn the I don't win the game by just waiting for the timer to finish

that's what i thought

[hot tree]

you could play offline and learn a little bit

[summer leaf]

^

[bold kernel]

Hello, very new here. Anyone down to join me in a raid?

[summer leaf]

Keep doing scav runs and offline PMC runs

[bold kernel]

I keep playing in offline mode but I keep dying even though I have PvE disabled. I think it's a scav sniping me

[summer leaf]

If you aren't certain on maps or fighting still

[summer leaf]

Woods?

[bold kernel]

I was told to learn crossroads so that is all I've been playing

[summer leaf]

There's a fake AI sniper that kills you if you walk off the map.

Crossroads isn't a map.. customs?

[bold kernel]

yes customs sorry

[summer leaf]

Hmmm. You have PvE disabled, still dying to gunshots?

[night mural]

Customs has the fake AI snipers too

[bold kernel]

Maybe that is what I was doing but I swore I was on the map lol kinda hard to tell

[hot tree]

there is a spot in custom where you get shot

[bold kernel]

yes gunshots

[hot tree]

and sometimes fall through the map

[summer leaf]

.3.

[bold kernel]

2 gun shots never 1 taps me so I always try to run and hide but still get shot

[summer leaf]

I think you're running off the map

[night mural]

In the construction expansion, near the train tracks?

[bold kernel]

^yes

[night mural]

Thats out of bounds

[bold kernel]

Ohhhh

Boy do I feel stupid.. lol

[hot tree]

why did you keep going there xd

[summer leaf]

Yeah, you're running off the map man. Look out for the sniper warning spray paints.

[bold kernel]

I kept getting lost

[night mural]

Its easy to miss, theres a crosshair spray paint sign showing you where out of bounds starts

[bold kernel]

Okay cool I will look for that thanks guys

was driving me crazy lol

I haven't done a real raid yet I'm scared lmao

[night mural]

Offline is a fantastic way to learn, can even add scavs into the map to practice shooting them.

[short hare]

problem is when putting scavs in offline is the fps goes to shit

from 100-120 to 50-60

should I sell my plague mask for 58k?

[night mural]

It's needed for one of the last quests, but if you're not bothered about that then yeah just sell it

[bold kernel]

Yeah I'm going to try to avoid running out of bounds. I figured it would tell me when I was going out of bounds lol

[night mural]

Game doesn't tell you anything, ever. haha

[short hare]

I haven't a single quest yet

all of them are very hard

[rustic helm]

how do i get scav kills for prapor

[bold kernel]

Go to customs and kill the NPC's

[short hare]

guys what is the hideout

I don't get what that is

[rustic helm]

craft shit from what i can tell

also crow i have but none have counted do i have to escape in order for it to count

[summer leaf]

^^

You craft stuff.

[night mural]

Are you doing it on your PMC run?

[summer leaf]

Gives you buffs too.

I'd recommend at least getting to workbench level 1 so you have full weapon modding

[bold kernel]

I have 500k should I upgrade hideout?

[bold kernel]

Yes you do

[rustic helm]

no

[bold kernel]

I believe

[rustic helm]

ight

good to know im boned

[bold kernel]

what does loss mean?

[vernal anchor]

Packet loss

[bold kernel]

oh

[rustic helm]

damn bro

[lusty glacier]

how does old gas station extract work?

[bold kernel]

fuck

u need to see green flare lighted

[lusty glacier]

it says there has to be a green flare to extract there

[night mural]

You don't need to survive, you just have to get the kills using your PMC, not on your scav loadouts.

[lusty glacier]

but like why? is it just random?

[bold kernel]

kinda

some times its on sometimes not

[lusty glacier]

i tried to go to the rail tracks where the sniper is to get to old gas, and barely making it out alive i went all the way around and with 30 seconds left i couldnt extract

it was very tragic

[bold kernel]

u need to got in the gas

and just go down

by the stairs inside

[lusty glacier]

there wasnt a green flare so even if i knew that i couldnt get out

[bold kernel]

So many controls in this game lol

[lusty glacier]

unfair game

[bold kernel]

there isnt much

[night mural]

Any extract with a ??? next to it in the menu is situational, either random whether its there or not or has certain criteria that has to be met to extract (Like power has to be on or something)

[lusty glacier]

oh

[night mural]

Extracts that have nothing listed next to them when you double tap O are the always available extracts to you.

[bold kernel]

Why do some maps say you can go below constructions and there are things there but other maps have it blacked out

on customs

[night mural]

In the new expansion part?

[bold kernel]

Oh there is a new expansion

[night mural]

Well, i say new, its like a wipe or 2 old.

but its the newest part of customs if thats what you mean

[bold kernel]

Okay cool ty

Queued up for my first raid

Is this just a horror game in disguise

Because I am terrified lol

[night mural]

You got this.

[eager shuttle]

where yall find car batteries the most?

I just did like 8+ runs on interchange and didnt find anything at oli or goshan lol 😦

[twin token]

where can I get the big crate things for extra space in my stash

[night mural]

Goshan spawns them right at the back shelves, like in the main store for goshan still but near the fire

[twin token]

What are they called

[night mural]

I've had 2 or 3 this wipe from them shelves

this? @twin token

[twin token]

yes

where can I find

[night mural]

Lucky Scav junkbox

Therapist level 2 sells

[twin token]

how do i level up the therpaist

therapist

[night mural]

Quests, spending money with her and your level

[bold kernel]

its worth to level up therapist like alot

[night mural]

Its worth to level every trader imo

[bold kernel]

true

but in my opinion threapist gives best reward

[twin token]

how much are they

[bold kernel]

a thicc case

[twin token]

how much does the box cost

[bold kernel]

in one of her quests

about 1400k

or 1500k

about that

[twin token]

cant afford

can I find it in game

any maps

[night mural]

Its almost 2 million roubles at the minute, for the junkbox

You cannot find it in raids, you can trade 100 dogtags for it if you would rather kill 100 people haha

[twin token]

how do I give stuff to a trader for a quest

[bold kernel]

@night mural its better to buy of therapist

did you do the salewa quest?

[twin token]

no

im trying to do it

idk how to give the things

[bold kernel]

go customs crack house

and u need the salewas found in raid

just got to therapist

got to the task u accepted

[night mural]

@twin token

[bold kernel]

and there should be turn in

yes

damn I got fucked up lol

[cosmic estuary]

Just to be safe but, the "kill that many scavs" can only be done with the PMC character?

[atomic lintel]

KEDR OR KLIN?

caps off sry

[night mural]

Correct

[bold kernel]

How do I tell if I died by a player or scav

[cosmic estuary]

If you can report them I think it's a player 😂

[bold kernel]

lmaoo

[cosmic estuary]

I think that has to be the most half assed rule of thumb I can think of. But, still somewhat logical, maybe?

😂

[twin token]

whats a good place to find selawa kits

salewa

[atomic lintel]

if it has a russian name with space between its a scav

which is better the kedr or the klin?

[pulsar hornet]

i need help with what to sell, coz im full

[dark obsidian]

where do u get supressors?

[bold kernel]

1 death took like all my meds to fix o:

[night mural]

You can use the post raid screen to heal for free until level 5 or 30 total raids i believe

[naive depot]

places that spawn weapon parts or various vendors

depends on which specific one you want

[dark obsidian]

ok thx

[naive depot]

the wiki can be a lot more specific

[dark obsidian]

yea im looking at it now

[pulsar hornet]

can anyone help me sort my stash

[dark obsidian]

put small stuff in ur tac vests and such and then put them in backpacks that saved me alot of space

[bold kernel]

Im just bringing pistol only so I don't lose all my stuff lol

[dark obsidian]

u can stack bps in bps to

[pulsar hornet]

my stash is just backpacks

i have way too many

[night mural]

put them inside each other

[small seal]

Stack your backpacks that are full of stuff in other backpacks

[pulsar hornet]

should i sell sa-58?

its going for like 50k

[bold kernel]

Can I post my stash here for some advice?

I'm a new player, I think I'm gonna try to do quests but I really have no idea what I'm doing.

unless you have a use for something sell it... work toward containers to save space aswell...
Values of things change over time on flea market so checking there will tell you the up to date values of note.

[bold kernel]

Im new and I feel the same way lol

[bold kernel]

Wanna party up and do quests?

I'd love to but I'm gonna give you a legit warning

I am trash. I don't know maps. I'm level 7.

Im level 3

lmao

The sherpahub is available aswell with guides and helpful members.

I also don't know maps

then I'd like to party, that sounds like fun dude.

Im in the sherpahub waiting for a sherpa lol

You can do that?

yeah people come to help you I guess

Oh that'd be amazing.

In the meantime I'll post my stash. I don't know what to run 100% of the time so I'm scared of losing something "good"

and apparently the ammo I use is always trash, whatever that means.

[coarse temple]

looking for somone to teach me tarkov

[bold kernel]

I'd appreciate some feedback on what to run/sell.

I think you are supposed to use ammo labled as BP

that is what I get from youtube videos

can someone give me advice on the task "Delivery from the past"

i'm so close to losing my shit lmao

I just disassemble my weapons and store them for the most part.

[pulsar hornet]

made some space, but still dont have a lot

all my vests are full too

cant even do a scav run now, coz no space

[bold kernel]

"unless you have a use for something sell it... work toward containers to save space aswell...
Values of things change over time on flea market so checking there will tell you the up to date values of note."

[pulsar hornet]

i dont have flee market yet

im lvl 6

[bold kernel]

Then don't worry about it until you do

ultimately just have fun and take your time learning.

You can always find more loot in raids

[pulsar hornet]

i am

can orient myself pretty well in 2 maps

[nocturne ice]

i got a lab keycard on random scav

[bold kernel]

Good. unless you need help feel free to use #beginners-chat and #pvp-lfg to team up with others and share experience..

[pulsar hornet]

got 2 of those

i think lab keys go for like 250k in market

[dark obsidian]

dang

[pulsar hornet]

from what i saw

[dark obsidian]

wish i had market unlocked then

[pulsar hornet]

me 2

[naive depot]

you'll get it unlocked

and eventually you'll use those to play labs instead of selling them!

[plush quest]

150k rn

[pulsar hornet]

Why should i go to labs

[plush quest]

dont

[bold kernel]

Labs is where most rare loot spawns.

[plush quest]

also death

[pulsar hornet]

I see

Prob hard to play too

W all the geared players

[bold kernel]

raiders and most pvp players go aswell

[nocturne ice]

Where is the best place for gas analyzer

and is interchange pvp heavy like customs

[plucky slate]

if i kill scavs with a scav does it count towards quests

[pulsar hornet]

I don't think so

Mine didn't

Had to go in w pmc
