which exit
Can’t extract on side you spawned on you need to go to the lil bunkers
my scav guy have a sniper , the cyan color sniper
@twin token
@pulsar kite if you kill any scavs in game wit shorty make sure to check they attachments
Shotty
i go to dorms?
check everything u have, there's this ceramic t3 armor that weights 12 kgs too
i only noticed that in my last scav run that i could snatch the mods sadge killed 3 and 2 of em had shotguns , was looking for the pistol stock
Go passed dorms
Go over radio tower hill
Then cross road through hole in fence
Take a left and then you’ll hit a wall then take right
Then you’ll see bunker
Bam
If that doesn’t help much lmk
Yw
i had 8 secs
That work
until the timer went out
?
Good shit man glad I could help
tysm
which extraction you were talking about blue
he had key? or its without key?
oo nice
I got 2 dt mdrs from the raid is it good
nice
is it good
For future reference too there’s about 4 small stashes right by that extract btw
Yes that’s good find
should i sell it
what is the price of p90 and vector?
Ya hoarding ?
P90 is 50ish k I think and vector is 40 from dealer and I think 70k market
Don’t got my game open atm so not 100%
@copper cairn can u help me clear out my stash
Yea man add me on disc
if ya streaming it galaxy i would join 😄
can u do tasks in offline mode?
go to a 3 man vc
why does it take me like 6 mins to find a match??
depends on ur servers
I picked like 5 eu servers
id leave it on auto
auto is scuffed
cuz my region is set to NA
and like lowest ping I play on is 70-85
in eu that is
When is Tarkov going to upgrade to Unity 19?
WHAT GUN CAN BREAK MY ARM?
but what ammo
!ballistics
cus i need to break me arm and then headshot
Ah shit command wont work.
Basically that list shows all ammo performances
But every ammo can technically "break" an arm
yeah but i need an ammo that can always break an arm
There's no "always".
lol
But the expensive ammo tends to do it 99% of the time 😂
If you hit the arm but that's 1500$ a shot at times
lol
there's rip ammunition which is good vs limbs
don't now if it always breaks them plus there's the perk that reduces limb break chance
i've had ??? dorm exit on my screen
i waited until 2 min remaining it was still closed. Is that like a bug ?
The ??? extracts are situational, the Dorms one (If you mean the car by dorms) needs you to pay roubles to extract
anybdoy wanting to go help?
Picked this game up a week ago after a friend gifted it to me during a white elephant. Im really into it but i cannot for the life of me get out of woods with the letter to jaeger. ive run into people camping the site and come across teams of 4 whom 6th sense find my bush/rock and kill me. any tips on how to complete this?
so like if i hit someone with a knife 10 times how does he not die??
i just used fucking superformance and bp on my body not broken once
the gate was closed and i was pmc so what am i supposed to do
The extract isn't open if the gate is closed
Could someone help me finish the "Delivery from the past mission"? I have tried it several times but cant get past the 2nd part
okay bro thanks
does morphine count as stimulant?
just asking cuz of the quest for killing scavs under stims effect
My Tips for Woods is to listen and look more often than running with your head cut off just to extract. Bring some fluids and food in case you have to wait it out to make a safer extract possible.
you won't need food or drink for 45 minutes long match
it takes around 47 minutes to completely run out of food/water
more like bring cms kit if ur stomach gets to shit
It all depends if you know Woods enough..and the heavier you are and the more you run around you will run out faster thann 45 minutes
Way faster.
You can absolutely starve/dehydrate faster depending on weight etc
ah, didn't know weight affects that
If your light loaded and just doing the quest with light gear and not looting you would be correct Eren.
just make sure to buy the aquamari water, its much more price efficient than buying water
guys im fk broke again how can i make some safe money? im the best at customs.
scav run
I need a marked key but they are going for way to much
that's what I started doing now, got 250+ today off my scav
cuz they can give you 10x the price of the key
@patent scarab Do Scav runs and loot a lot.
wich map
i do them always on factory
even factory profits if you survive
Factory is risk/reward.
ok sure thanks, imma do it rn
If your up for a bigger map with less frequency of threat you can get away with killing other Scavs a lot easier than factory..giving you a better chance to extract with the loot you get.
is there any way to get a marked key without buying it
man i really want to know shoreline how can i understand the map best? i really want to learn it for some money runs
jackets, drops,
You can buy in game maps from Therapist.
isn't 6B23 armor too expensive for being just tier 3?
its like 50k aint it?
I can show you around Shoreline if you want. It's one of my favorites.
anyone know if its possinle to put an elcan scope on a vepr hunter? and if so, how
use the edit preset stuff, that lets you put on the weapon any attachments that are available for it
so you can see yourself everything that can be put on it, that's what I do
this game is jokes, shot a fk scav with snb ammo with a mosin and didnt die LMAO
snb ain't that good from what I know
isn't the sniper 7N ammunition good?
He'll die from bleeding out...
Can any one help me do two quest in woods? The convoy and jaeger one?
Just not in time for you to get the kill
SNB has higher pen but lower damage
snb ammo is good but, that mother fk should have died
Against scavs SNB is probably the worst. Overpen for days and not enough damage
@umbral pollen. im doing those too
I can Boogie.
@sgt h. wolf. can i join?
What's your regions?
NA
NA as well.
poor EU guys
You both have the quests active right? It's a dumb question but I've guided other players that didn't have the quest activated...
75% of the player pop feels like from NA
There is plenty of us EU players 🙂
I mean, UK so i guess i'm technically not EU now? KEK
Let me get my coffee and my headset on..give me 5 mikes.
Alright. Shall we do discord call then to communicate?
Or do you guys wanna share screen and I can talk you through it?
i have the jaeger quest
oh this for newbies?!?!
anyone else new and would like to learn together, no idea WTF i am doing, but would love to learn?
Anyone want to show a new player the ropes?

like I killed 3 scavs without problem without using meds but I can't take them even after I get the kills
@unique cloud The chat channel is full I cannot join you guys.
it doesn't say you can't use meds after you get the job done
Hopefully you guys have the help you need.
@serene adder Think it indicates the whole raid.
you cannot med at all during the raid
as you found out anyway
yeah it does, that's bullshit, got sniped by random guy
do any stims count for the jaeger quest too or do I need to use only the combat stimulants?
like morphium for example
is there a spawn time for shturman?
always
Use milk or hot rods
insta
They count as stims since they give buffs
awesome
i never knew that i just used the longest lasting stim last time haha
i cant see why it wouldnt
Milk is 300 seconds, don't know about the hot rod
I hope it works cause wasting money for stims when I'll surely die, no thanks
where can i find a gas analyzer thats not in factory, i cant make it out of spawn without dieing in first 2 minutes. lol
They can spawn on any map.
loose loot spawn? or specific areas
I've tended to find them in contaniers or on dead scavs
make sure to check drawers, they commonly spawn in there
thanks fellows! ill try something new than factory
lmao bro you need a bandaid
lmmao
blacked stomach
Fucking didnt know theres a random patch of mines behind the usec camp
Ahh. Rip, okay
yea are you new
hey all i was looking for someone that could help me learn the game
I found those mines as well.
@runic patio which map are you playing and region
yeah those suck
Cant finish that damned quest because od it
That was on woods. AFK right now, just got a nice factory run
meh, now that i know i’ll never run into them again. If u need help w that quest lmk bro
I tried to use that rock as cover while fighting the last kid i killed 😪 they’re pushed up so close to the camp
woods is impossible to navigate around. woods and interchange that is
hm, idk i disagree
Both are easy. I dont have problems on navigation at all in the game really
both of those maps could go to hell for all i care
What happens with my loot if i cant rejoin because of server problems ?
gone
lost i assume
Aids
all you need to know is the idea and the other shot and you an tell exactly where you are at all times
or whatever many containers are
Anyone that is decent at shoreline that knows where the scavs spawn can you help me get the quest done? Never played the map so I have no idea. Cheers.
check bus depot gas station and pier boat
no idea where it is pal thats the thing
use a map
yeah well asking for help is what the server is for
Using a map isnt help
lamo
I just dont play shoreline
im level 32
Oh yeah? I'm level..
and i main shorelone
level 14 and i could find my way around shoreline, stop being a gimp mate he gave an idea
Nah, @wintry storm just run offline with a map open, it's real easy to locate
I can help with woods and shoreline. I know them both. It doesn't matter what level you are..it's how long you have been playing and how well you know the maps.
There's only two extracts possible on PMC, and one optional. The map is practically a triangle, between the shore resort, the actual resort, and cottages
Tbh, just try to help yourself first before asking for help
Which tends to lead to frustration for new players.
Coming in entitled to help isn't really a cool thing to do though
then dont
Ask for a better trim bro
people wanna be hand held ive learned the hardway me telling you where they spawn and to use a map is a help that how i learned you just wanna be hand held lmao you aint gonna learn shit like that
I'm here to help. Just ask..I can join you in raid or guide you with screen sharing.
that would be perfect pal
LMFAOO someone that can use a compass, try learn it
I was new once, all I needed was Google, but I understand people needing help, but there are tons of guides for shoreline on YouTube.
I never got help with quests, yet I'm not toxic, cause all the hints pointing me and guiding me towards success matter
Guides work sure..but actually being in game in the raid on the map and using landmarks is the best way imho.
i dont see the need to watch a video on shoreline when I can just have someone run the map with me, allowing them to benefit too.
Your 100% gonna learn the map better by playing it, and most of the guides are whack anyways
if they die you're just gonna make them mad
I get this is a place for new players to get assistance, but calling someone out for not providing the help they expected is kinda wack. Oh well. Doesn't matter.
they can come in with a pistol, idc
pestily's map guides are pretty good, but half of one guide took me an hour
Yeah I used them too when I learned the maps
maps are OKAY, im asking for a quick bit of help, 1 raid with someone
not for someoen to say use a map, when most likely I have one up
the game does a pretty piss poor job at helping players understand the maps
half the maps are outdated now anyways, atleast woods is.
having the ingame maps intentionally lack detail and info like spawns/extracts is basically just a 'fuck you use the wiki' to new players
there are updated maps for woods
Nobody uses the in-game maps anyways
I do.
Its best to just pull up an interactive map with the extracts and other stuff
On your second monitor if you have one
the game shouldnt be designed with the expectation players will be using external information and tools
I had to use the maps out of raid only, cause my pc freezes more frequently with map on and my phone is shit
theres no reason for the ingame maps to be bad
nyone feel like playing with a newbie?
but true the maps are bad as fuck, all in russian too if i remember correctly
There is a nice Woods map that new players should use.
They're trying to keep you immersed lol
Legend and compass included.
tabbing out to a wiki all the time is real immersive
oh nice, first time I see new woods reworked map
Save that link
Nikita wants people to find information out for themselves, there isn't an expectation to use external tools
I was joking but w/e
luckily woods are kinda easy to remember so I know the locs, just don't know the spawns
That map I posted is from the Sherpa Discord..
I applied to be a Sherpa..so I hope they are watching me help!
okay and where are scav spawns?
Mostly at the areas with the buildings
I just wish the factory gate would be useful at all, idk why there have to be PMC and SCAV lol
They also tend to spawn at random in the woods
like if I tried to be friend with random scav walking around I'm sure he'd just kill me and try the nearest scav extractions
Player Scav spawns are lost on me. I do not know.
apart from the factory gate
I would think they are random.
Yeah I wish there was a penalty for killing a scav as a scav
factory gate extract is for pmc and scav only, not for scav + scav
which is pretty much useless extract
I wasn't talking about that
hey anyone want to play? got a few days in the game. down for anything
I mean ton general
well there was supposed to be the penalty system for scavs
scavs respawn right
any1 want to play? im pretty new
do the extracts on reserve change ?
me too im down
they do
See a lot of peeps saying stash is full, I know it’s effected by what edition you purchased before upgrading it but organize and stack bags on my 4th day of gameplay
you have the eod edition lol
ur stash is SO much bigger
Yeah even starting with base stack bags, work on learning medical supplies and sell attachments. Yeah it’s huge lol
I still got a lot to learn but always ask if they stack bags n fill them majority hadn’t done
I have a mp133 and a salewa, found in raid, and for some reason the game wont let me hand it in for debut and shortage. can someone tell me why?
anyone know how loot tables work for storage containers like bags, coats, weapons crates etc
Is it always the same, regardless of location and map?
or does each map/ crate have it own possible loot table
@unique granite are they marked FIR in your inv? (tick in bottom right)
that's odd then, what happens on the quest screen?
the button that says to hand it in isnt there
and the box where it shows which items to hand in for quests doesnt show the gun or salewa
is there like a specific thing I need to have before handing it in?
I put ammo in the shotgun
Can you screenshot the screen where the 'HAND IN' is supposed to be?
why wouldnt it let me hand it in from my inventory though?
You did, you just have to hand it in on their tab
oh
You can never hand things in from your own task tab
yo anyone help me with my inventory got a bunch of stuff but not sure what i need to keep or sell for some of it
ok thank you!
shouldn't be propital expensive?
man I hate that I get randomly 1 tapped, scavs should see less in the rain
I've been looking around all the time and haven't seen anyone and then just 1 hit
I hate fully auto w no recoil control lol
its fine as far as you're not using the trashy AKs
@serene adder true lol, I still like the single shot majority of the time till I get a better gaming rig and can actually play more then one map lol
gl and do your home work on what works with this game
@remote saddle system wise?
Mind i ask, anybody able to help me with jaeger quest?
Can anyone help me with a quest on woods?? im lvl 9
seems to me like you just don't hoard as much as most people
True I’ve been dieing a lot current pc only allows me to play woods n factory sad days here lol
All the rigs in there are also full of stuff for the hideout and tasks xd
I really miss my scav junkbox RIP scav junkbox 2019-2019
Yeah I gotta do more, I keep catching peeps off guard n fill up but still learning a lot being a newb lol
I tried to sell most of my shit now
90% of my stash problems will disappear as soon as I get my hands on the box 
Especially when I still had the TinyPP edition the junkbox is just an amazing spacesaver
sold around 20 bags that I had stacked, felt endless to open it all
Haha yeah
Once we can get cases that’s the way to go?
I mean its kinda huge and doesn't really give you too much space, costs 15k euros lol
way to save your stash space for sure
BigPP beginner tip: Get lavatory level 2 and make scav cases
I highly recommend you save yourself cans called herrings
@serene adder thx for the tip
and squash cans, and buy food bag for barter items cause people sell that for stupidly high price, 900k roubles
Mats for magazine case are ezpz to find and it's worth buying the KEKtape for the scav junkbox
its much more price efficient to even buy the barter items off flea and buy it with barter items from jaeger level 2
but every squash can is 40k now, and herring is 30k, tarcola is 30k as well so save those too
and hot rods are luckily fine, just 12k +-
ye i was stupid enough to buy the case off therapist for 2 mil
F
if u buy the shits needed for crafting it it saves you like half a mil
Honestly, scav junkboxes are my main cashcow
kektape ain't that expensive
All the mats are so easy to find and I just buy the rarer stuff like the kektape
i haven't really found magcase, cuz I ain't doing maps that are reserve/interchange/shoreline
Once went through the high loot area on the west side of customs and found like 5 metal cutting thingies 
and holy shit the raining in this game is seriously loud as fuck
Magcase is also super easy to craft from the lavatory
couple of nuts couple of bolts metal cutting scissor and 2 cans of fuel (that you use first ofc)
ye bolts are 40k each rn
so it ain't even worth crafting prob
I haven't found bolts in quite some time
nvm u can't even buy them cause everyone's having hands out of my league
the bolts someone's selling dissapear after less than second lol
does level 3 workbench unlock more weapons crafting?
You aren't finding bolts because I'm hoarding them all. I'm sorry. 
I mean jackets and toolboxes don't spawn any for me
and I still wanna find my T plug duuhd, I need only 1 for farming part 2
i tried that, yeah
drawers used to spawn them now i get crickets or usb shit
or matches most of the time if not crickets
yeah idk. If you want something bad enough, shit doesn't come.
whats the best way to get the gas analyzer?
I heard there was recently a reset, I played back before the most recent reset, other than some new content, are there any other seriously significant changes? I last played back when they had made hatchling runs dangerous due to marked/cursed, but kinda stopped after that.
search drawers, they have increased chance of spawning them, or oli on interchange
no big changes
they reworked some quests is all
andu updated woods
yeah saw the updated woods on reddit, but cool good to know. thanks!
Woods, the quests, and the new guns are the biggest changes
most of the quests were just made easier
'easier'?
hey idk what im doing ngl
The earlier task require less stuff. I assume that's what they are referring to.
Almost everything needs to be FIR now it seems.
they are making the game less and less for casuals.
just installed the game lf someone to learn the ropes with 🙂
Im only level 2, im down to be confused together
lets get it lol
hello guys i am level 12 need some help doing tasks EU
I disagree. There have been heaps of changes to make the game more beginner friendly. Therapist after raid heading, loading weapons by right clicking mags, a sort feature. I'm not exactly sure how it could be perceived as less casual than a year ago.
Hunter will be more consistent at taking down 1-2 targets. Sks will be more diverse since it can get 20-35 round mags making it possible to bite more off at once.
hey i just got the game and am looking for a sensei
They both have strengths but I'd opt for a hunter myself. It feels better with just scope. The sks feels better with all the mods to me. You really can't to wrong with either.
hey guys, easiest way to learn the exits?
Quality of life doesn't mean they haven't made changes more geared towards the honest tacticool player.
Pull up a map on your second monitor / phone. Look for landmarks on the map and try to find yourself around using those, Rem.
alright
If that doesn't do it, go watch a videos on the extracts before you play a map.
Play offline with a map pulled up
thats actually a good idea, thanks
ye, you need to kill now 3 scavs without using meds instead of 5
if you want to practice aim, I recommend offline labs with horde amount. :) you won't spend the card since it's offline mode
and if you find a cheap blue card, you get probably get stims and try out early high stats
factory with horde mode is rough
can probably get*
It gets easier with time. You just have to learn how scav/ raider ai works.
Can anyone help me with a quest on woods?? im lvl 9
It'll get to the point where you can so horde and not take a shot the entire time because of how predictable the ai is.
Lvl 99 scav taming
gain elite skill they have to flip you off before engaging in combat.
Bruh just let gluhar and the boys do that.
They'd be significantly easier. Hell reshala and his goons normally flip me off
there reaches a point scavs can see the blood on your hands, and the wrinkles on your face
they know what's up
Raiders start walking in single file lines because they don't want to waste your time.
Hell, at lvl 100 scav taming they start looting and bringing you stuff and dropping it
Is tag and cursed without weapon still a thing?
As a solo player yes. It doesn't seem to be if you are grouped with someone that comes geared.
hey guys, which cheap shotgun ammo is the least poop? buckshot? And what size?
for which map?
i usually get into woods pretty quick
customs is pretty quick
factory interchange
shoreline and reserves are the ones that take long for me
That is med building right?
Yeah
Can anyone help me with a quest on woods?? im lvl 9
^
sf
is it easy to get Machinery Key as scav?
or would you have to use PMC to get there fast
Define easy. Tbh it is same. If someone didn't loot it before you you can still get it regardless of scav or pmc. Only difference is if you spawn at the junk bridge you can get there first loot it and put it in your safe container. Else it is same
Sometimes you will just spawn in with a key for the map you're on as scav
can someone run factory with me. I have 3 quests there. The more people the better. Please @ me if you can help
any EU players wanna play?
any one wana duo starting tasks
returning for new wipe looking to get to level 10, anyone want to babysit for a little bit?
any one want to play with me? i am still pretty new to the game
i am in wooods and im so lost... Plz send help
any sherpas here?
Looking for someone experienced to coach me/help with begginer quests
this akms scav kills on shoreline fucking sucks. The amount of rats and sweaty kids on that map is unreal. I have died about 15 times in 3 hours and still havnt done it
if you've died that many times doing one quest then maybe it's not the quest that's the problem
Ok i need some help with fund raising and logistics in EFT, and its a long and exhaustimg topic so if some sherpa willing to help could dm me so my problem doesnt get spammed away here, i would appreaciate it
^^^^^^
🤔
I could post it here but i am worried it will get spammed away pretty badly
Anyone tryna run customs?
trying to run Factory for Stirrup (3 PMC Pistol Kills) and it's a major pain in the rear.
use a G18, the SR1MP, or the Five-seveN
anything else will suck ass and you will not have a good time
Can't afford them
yeah I've been trying suicidal bum-rushes with a PACA, SSH-68, and makarov
don't worry about stirrup, there's no quests beyond it
Well i guess i will post it here but anwsers in dms due to my old laggy phone would be appreaciated.
So the problem lays here - I am suffering from success. Basically, i have started squading up with friends and taking advice, noticably getting more combat effective and surviving more often. This led to me looting a lot of weaponry, some more modded then others. I even managed to kill a scav boss once, which is not bad for a level 6 player i think. So now i am here - using the advanced armor or modded weapons had huge costs in repairs, insurance, ammunition. This lead me into a hole where i could be able to insure only when doing pistol only runs, which have prooven a success like seen on the attached photo. So now i am here, with a stash full of guns, some modded, some supposted to use ammo i cannot even buy yet, with less than 20k roubles barelly able to buy meds needed for raiding. What should i do? Should i sell my weapons? If yes, which ones? How, in parts or not? To which traders? Should i wait for the flea market to unlock? How do u make money well without it drowning in insurance?
@silver hornet Yeah, I just want to unlock the ability to buy the 366tkm AK from Skier
why
sell guns you can't afford to use to mechanic for maximum profit
But i heard they are really good when you can get the right rounds, and flea market is just 4 levels away, i am talking two modded AK-101s, they use 5.56
Which i can only buy for dollars in the m885 ver. Which is shit from what i heard
yeah and the 'right rounds' are expensive as fuck on the flea market.
I have a favourable modded ak 74m but at this point its hard to afford ammo even to it. I have a lot of 7.62 ammo, should i sell it?
yeah and the 'right rounds' are expensive as fuck on the flea market.
@silver hornet well that complicates everything even further
I cant remember well now but i believe i have two stock Ak-74ms, a stock AKS-74m, a saiga 9, two makarovs, and two modded ak-101s in stash currently unused
plus the AK-101 isn't that good of a rifle anyways
So i should sell it to mechanic. In parts or whole? Its also my only silenced gun
whole
So both ak 101s for sale?
And what about insurance? Like insuring my glock 17 currently costs 22k
Prapor ofc, the med girl is not worth it
The glock is just modded into insanity, look at the screen above. The better build is made to a weapon the harder its to insure
Insurance price got raised.
I'm aware
Disassemble; sell parts to skier, then the whole gun to mechanic.
but I don't know how one single Glock that's not even modded out that much is worth that much to insure
Why would you do that?
Skier gives more for parts.
Not since last wipe.
I still find he gives more for the parts he does take and you need to spend money with him anyway.
I don't use the buy and resell method either.
To Mechanic
to Skier
Mechanic flat out buys parts for more now. No reason to sell shit to him unless you're trying to level him up.
So sell both ak-101s, and what about 7.62 ammo? I have like 15 stacks of it and the only gun that uses it is my sks
What ammo specifically?
Regular BP i believe, not sure tho. it could work if i had a gun that fires it.
BP is the best round for 7.62x39.
I'd just use it or hold onto it. Ammo sells like garbage to traders.
I would like to use it but i dont have a weapon that does so nor have an idea how to get one. It might sound funny from a level 6 player, but after fighting a couple raids with my favourite AK-74M build, the SKS doesnt live up to my expectations unless on a budget run
how often does wipes happen?
6-9 months
when was the last one?
the 24th of December
thank you
The SKS isn't good unless you mod it out.
perfect time to have bought it then lol
20-35 round mods, aftermarket stocks, etc.
I'm not saying it's a bad rifle but it's good enough for new players.
or 9x18 caliber
my prob rn is i have no stash room and i have no idea what to sell
The SKS isn't good unless you mod it out.
@silver hornet its a nice platform if you want something penning arnor for free, but i want something better standart. Any ways of getting a better 7.62 gun?
yeah, level up prapor so you can get an AKM
AKM? But isint that outated as hell therefore having high recoil?
the SKS is older than the AKM lmao
Ik but its played differently
what?
Yo, just started tarkov, which weapon should i use/map to learn the game?
The SKS is 10-15 years older than the AKM
how is the SA-5B aus i think its called
I fired a bit modded ak 103 once and it felt way worse then my ak-74m current build. Are all 7.62 automatic guns so higher recoil?
yes
Yeah..
My current base ^
It's cause 7.62 is BIG bullet.
i cant find any ammo for it but it sells for 50k
BIG! But hurt.
So overall akm is gonna be better for cqc than ak74m due to harder hitting but worse on range due to way higher recoil?
Pmc handles recoil like some civilian, not military guy
@silent skiff it depends tho
In this game bullet> gun
Hm..
Nikita doesn't like to pull down his mouse to control recoil.
Akm has bigger damage, but if u load up shitty bullets
You will end up with 20 hits and no kill
Hmm so simmilar to 5.56, i have stocks of bp tho
Ah good to know, might consider an AKM. And while we are at it- is the AK setup i sent above ok or utter crap? Reminder i still have no flea market so i mod with what i loot.
Yeah its kinda okay, there is a nice scav gem gun tho
Vpo 366 AK
Semi auto, but if u loot it with AP ammo
.366 is garbage unless you have .366 AP
Its 1 shot k.o to most players
If u hit thorax
Yeah, AP only
Most pmc will run 3 or 4 level armor, so in 90% of cases you will 1 tap them
is this gun worth keeping this early?
Hmm yes and no
Isint level 4 balistic armor suposted to stop a 7.62 AP round at 2920m/s at 100meters range?
Gun is great, but the round not so much @kindred shell
i cant find any ammo for it
Yeah i would keep it till u hit level 10
if you can't find 7.62x51 M80, don't bother. Also, don't use that helmet.
gotcha
Round you have installed is kinda rng
whats wrong with the helm?
garbage + pretty sure it blocks hearing
gotcha
But level 4 u will need to mag dump
Ye helmet is garbage
Use metal helmet from ragman
Its a firefighter helmet, not much to be expected in terms of protection @kindred shell
Will stop most pistol rounds, and in some cases even rifle
thanks for the tips
Try to find a military grade helmet that allows you to put headphones inside on raids
so sell whatever is below 3 gotcha
The SSh-68 is Vietnam-era not WW2
Except some random shotgun shell
Also yeah, level 3 is the absolute base for helmets.
@silver hornet ye ye, my bad
I mean inside or on whatever just make thrm work and dont use the gsh headphones from prapor level 1 unless you want an earr*pe
Thx for correction
get your niche helmet facts right, nerd
It's the best budget helmet, no contest
I wouldn't even pick any level 4
After level3 i would only swap my ssh for faceshield helmets
This might be kind of a stupid question (I'm very new to the game), but what sort of things are the best to carry on a PMC to try and just build up loot in your stash? I'm not very good at the moment, so I don't particularly want to take in expensive gear (i.e really good armour) that I'll most likely lose.
for my first 5 runs i went in butt naked with a pistol
use your scav, know what items to use in your hideout/are needed for quests
Know what ammo is good, what's bad
About collecting stuff, i wouldn't sell many items
Would focus on getting level 10
Cuz most level 1 traders will give you meh money for the gun
killed some scavs got some loot. i love woods
Pistol runs are also nice
For woods, when u can farm scavs and get out
Altough i would wear paca armour as well
i farm scavs at the hospital area
To stop random shotgun scav from 1 tapping you
Its cheap, and effective
Best tier 2 armour in the game
paca is the blue one right?
Ye
Its useless against players
But awesome against scavs
Cuz most of scavs use shitty ammo
Any sort of personal recommendations for a pistol to bring along in a run?
Makarov
What edition of the game do you have?@grim heath
its like 6k
Just standard
Remember to always keep meds on you
Ye
@smoky wing PACA is grey, by blue he is reffering to the UNITAR level 3
I wouldn't recommend the Makarov
Dont confuse the man
I'd honestly just shell out the money for an M9 or a Glock.
Speaking of which, reee BSG add a .45 Glock
Glock 17 fecking demon agnist scavs, also @smoky wing sorry if i insulted you by this, i did not know
Nah no worries, u did good by correcting me
Yeah glock is amazing
But if u are super super tight on budget, grab makarov and aim for the head
Worst case scenario u lose like 9k rubles
I twitch dropped a glock 17 and did runs on interchange with it, absolute unit.
anyone wanto to hop into a channel and assit a poor fellow like myself?
Would it be worth insuring the makarov or just leave it?
a young infant deer stuggling to take his first steps?
you guys know how to attach a Vulcan MG 3.5x on a dmr or sniper?
Leave it @grim heath
@grim heath how much is insurance?
I think about 2-3k, not checked yet
In most cases i would say leave it
a young infant deer stuggling to take his first steps?
@potent echo i would but its 2am
But most people dont rly pick up makarovs
and it says its a night scope i assume that means night vision?
Sad!
I think about 2-3k, not checked yet
@grim heath thats 1/3rd of tge guns price, not worth it
proceeds to insure glock for 22k like a chad
also how good are grenades?
Super crazy good
like can they clear out 4 scavs in a single room good?
If they are close enough , yeah
sick
I never used grenades, are they really good?
alright I'll try and give that a go
i got flashes once and it hurt me irl lol
thank you
Should probably get some for clearing customs dorms then hmm
Yeah
flashes are not fun
I mean they put rly high pressure on your enemy
they impair both your pmc and you
If u know that some1 is hiding in the exact spot
You pop a grenade and wait
Guy either runs away or dies
And while running, you can pop a few shots and hopefully kill him
Especially since this game has no grenade indicator
All they hear is you unpinning the nade and then the sound of the impact
thanks for the tips guys
ive been stashing a bunch of frags
flashes are for the memes
i think i have like 15 frags
When they reload they drop the mag on the ground
that's true ^
And this might be a stupid idea, but how do you enter dorms? By the window? Frontdoor? How do you avoid getting mowed down? Cause while in duos i go to the side door and open it up as my partner waits prepared aiming downsights and engaged everything inside, but how do you enter solo?
really?
thats cool
Untill around 40% ish of flash wears off
@silent skiff spawn near dorms and rush, or go late... but there is no RIGHT way to approach it
They toned them down a bit, but they still completely blind you for 5+ seconds
checked the insurance price of the makarov and its 846
Insure it then
I tried it out on myself and it blinded me for much longer time than 5 seconds
Most people wont bother picking it up
it was around 10 seconds, was crazy
depends on how close they are
but its nicely done flash grenade, never seen them done like that
Alright thanks for the help everyone, goodnight! And @serene adder +1 friend point for knowing a good character from a good animated series
@grim heath also pro tip for you
is there a way to make your stash bigger? I have the standard version but I see that other people's stash's are much much larger.
Is there any way how to get the docs for therapist easily?

@spring plume hideout
don't forget today's another episode, should be banger
Upgrade
Thry will still come back to you
Expensive af
If no1 picks them up
i am new to tarkov someone help me with a ropes
What in there do I upgrade
ah that's a good tip actually
Yeah upgrade is hella expensive
ty
High level players do it all the time
yeah I've been playing with a friend and he's taught me to always try and dump his stuff in a bush
there is this thing called stash, u can upgrade it for 3,5 mil on level 2, gives u 100 squares more
How many levels are there? Like 4?
yeah
If no1 picks them up
@smoky wing somebody did that with an m4 to me and i was mad today, i wanted that m4 i deserved it for yeeting him with a glock
Well, 3.1 million more to go 😄
@silent skiff its actually viable strategy
Ik ik :/
you can still buy better version for saving yourself the money
don't forget to use scav anytime you can for money
I've already bought the Standard Edition. Is it possible to upgrade my version of the game?
Yup
Yes
absolutely
there's still fee which sucks but for the eod edition there's 19 euros off
like?
Where would I go to upgrade my version
that's not perks at all
Different melee weapon
website
that's just quality of life improvements
What part of the website
Gets 2x2 secure container
under profile i believe
I take perks as skills
EoD also gets better initial standings with all dealers
not too much more
so.. any tips how to get the docs for therapist quest in the woods?
I have no where to put these... Don't get on me about my organisation
I was there few times and picked it up, but then shturman or some players destroyed me
don't forget to equip everything you can for free space
i can help you with stash organization if youd like
I don't have access to the flea market yet Victx
@spring plume tell you what to sell and what to keep
Some containers can be bought
From traders
Like mechanic
I belive he has mag container
As a barter item
just equip the backpack,vest and shit and put that stuff in your inventory, keep only ammo, ammo case and the vest, sell the rest
and keep grenades too maybe
Whenever
you're available
Also u can put backpacks inside of backpacks
I sold some for free 100k
does it matter what character i pick at the start?
@spring plume meet me in 2 man squad #20
how do they work
Bear is russian, meaning russian voice (and language) and russian starting weapons
Sorry a dude jumped in, he's about to hop out
Usec gets english voice lines
And nato weapons at the beginning
Other than that, just skins
ok thanks alot
it does not
No worries
Anyone having problems with Gunsmith part 11? Whenever i put the stock on that i need, the recoil doesn't change
making it so that i can't finish the quest
it just changes your starting gear and voice lines which you will never use anyway
Ye as i said
bears get AKs, USEC M4s
Rly small difference
They will be more in the future tho
I mean i belive u can taunt scavs
With your voice
Dunno if it works, was always too lazy to check that out
So citation needed
yes, as scav
anybody wanna do the Delivery from the Past quest together? i keep dying at factory lmao
or people say you can do that if you have scav clothes
Try ripping the stock off and putting it on manually
if you flip off scavs, they'll shoot you
NA or EU?
NA
ah shit
fml
I wish scav run had more interaction
With other scavs
Other than "we will not shoot you unless u shot anybody that is scav"
I mean they sometimes even say ''gg izi''
Still not cheeky breeki level
ye i need my stalker cheeky breeki
I wish there was a map
imagine if u could play on a guitar in your hideout
lol that would be interesting,
And they would be passive to anyone but scavs
Unless u get too close or shoot first
Cuz its kinda their duty
You know PMCs would farm the hell out of them though
Squads would line up headshots and execute them all at once
@summer leaf that is why they would be in buildings
With 1 or 2 soldiers patrolling
You shoot one of them, hell let loose
Cool steps nonetheless
Would also tie nice to peacekeeper quests
Like he would order you to kill certain untars that want to rat him out
was able to find a scav but I can't aim well under pressure lmao
What map?
customs
I got rid most of the time about the shaking hands when someone shoots me but still
if I'm too chill I don't move and get headshotted
Also wear armour
And if u can helmet
So you dont get 1 tapped by random scav shot
I would say paca is kinda a must
If u fight a scav with ak its whatever
But if u fight a shotgun scav it makes all the difference
Remember about meds , bandage is a must, painkiller too
yeah, I always try and bring bandage and painkillers at least
I usually dont bring painkillers, just splint
wanna keep some space in my container in case i find something good
Well painkillers are only 1 slot, and they let you run
like when I found car battery today, gold vein for me
still need 3 more or make 1,5 mil for the military battery
but I guess you could use the military battery to level up strenght right? just cheese it
how do you fast crawl from a sprint?
just run and hit that lay button no?
maybe but i dont remember that working
like im watching this video and my guy just launches forward when he crawls but when i do it, my guy stops and takes his sweet time
Need Help Finding Jaegers Camp in Woods for a Quest
whats some good not expensive bullet for Silenced Stechkin Automatic Pistol 9x18PM
don't stop holding W
None actually @mighty shoal
9x18 is by itself , a terrible round
But the best of the worst
PMM OR PBM
ok
I'm done
I just forgot to take off the rig I filled with shit and took it accidentally into raid, camper again 1 tapped my chest
this is so much fun
Welcome to tarkov
I'll remember this virgin for life who was just following me
Free dog tags
howdy

be careful playing with a player called "ThePope" everyone. He teamkilled me because i wouldnt give him the extra backpack I picked up. the kid has severe anger issues it seems
how do i play online, it keeps saying im offline
if you don't have the offline box ticked you're not playing offline
ok thanks
I dont understand spray when I full auto. Im a few meters away from some guy, reticle centered on his chest, and I dump two mags. I only mannaged to hit six shots. Reticle was on him for most of it. I know that the reticle only gives an idea where shots will hit, especially when shooting full auto but I thought this was crazy. Any tips for when you get into full auto fire fights?
what gun ?
