You can get an early upgrade from peacekeeper at level 15 I think when he is loyalty 2

You can do a horribly overpriced barter for a beta container

What's the good map to learn first? Customs? My buddy back in the day told me to run factory all the time and I feel like I got fucked over a lot

red flame
#

Whoever says factory

#

Mouth breathes

red flame
#

And are akin to those who run reserve first thing

lyric cedar
#

That's what I thought

#

Yeah he wasn't the best teacher which is probably the reason I fell out of it

So I got delivery from the past, should I try to solo into factory or try my best to get a 5 squad ?

red flame
#

oh wow imagine if you had a full one!1

nocturne ice
#

Is that the one in customs office?

#

Oh yeah 5 man it I would say

tranquil anchor
#

Yah

red flame
#

people that 5 squad into factory don't even get keys from jackets as karmic justice

nocturne ice
#

I would 5 man so I don’t have to go to customs again

bold kernel
#

Get a 5 man. Do the quest. Run around the place for exploration exp or wait for 10 mins. You should be good.

If I put e.g. laser on rail in raid do both items get FiR?

#

if i need to gear out my PMC, which dealers sell a good gun/armor/backpack...not sure what i should be buying if my PMC has died so many times i dont have that free starting gear

torpid zinc
#

what should i sell for peacekeeper to get his lvl up

valid hatch
#

whats a good website to check prices?

#

not lvl 10 yet

ancient falcon
#

bro these scavs headshotting you with a shotgun 20+ metres away is getting ridiculous

nocturne ice
#

tarkov market prices

rugged yacht
#

their bullets curve through my helmets

bold kernel
#

@torpid zinc diaries, ssd, intel stuff usually is cheaper in ruble and sells for good $

icy swan
#

@gaunt mason Do scav runs until you feel better about what you have lost so far. Sell what you don't want and keep the rest for your PMC loadouts. It's great way to get back to a positive place.

valid hatch
#

im not sure what to do with my new years gift gear

#

might just sell it off

#

i know i aint gonna profit from it

gaunt mason
#

@icy swan I can also just wipe my account each week, right?

cosmic tinsel
icy swan
#

Is that like a soft reset?

#

Because I've never done that before.

cosmic tinsel
#

yeah its basically makin a new character - you can do it thru the bsg website

#

new starter kit, new name, new chance to pick bear/usec

icy swan
#

So you volunteer to lose all progress and go back to starting fresh?

cosmic tinsel
#

correct

icy swan
#

No thanks.

#

lol...

cosmic tinsel
#

yeah, its something my new friends have been asking about

#

gear fear is real

icy swan
#

It is real..but damn..no risk it...no biscuit.

cosmic tinsel
#

i keep reminding them that tarkov is chock fulla loot, you'll get a turn

gaunt mason
#

but lets say i am not broke, which is a good backpack to get and from which dealer

#

?

icy swan
#

What level are you?

#

And what level are your dealers?

swift hawk
#

True, I just did scav runs until my inv was full of rigs, bags and guns and just forked over the 40k for the helmet and armour

cosmic tinsel
#

scav bp/day pack are a good place to start if you're sub level 20 and have a little bit of cash

gaunt mason
#

i brand new

#

level 1 everything

icy swan
#

The more you level up the dealers, selling and buy stuff to and from them, the more they will have to offer you.

gaunt mason
#

just want to know what a cheap and good gun/backpack/chest to roll with

cosmic tinsel
#

sling or scav bp. maybe sling to start if you're brand new. get some comfort figuring out where loot it and how to extract

gaunt mason
#

@cosmic tinsel thanks Evo, thats the answer i needed

cosmic tinsel
#

(honestly almost ever scav has a backpack you could take too)

swift hawk
#

Also in doing so you upgrade your charisma, making pricea cheaper

gaunt mason
#

@cosmic tinsel i dont usually live

#

so i dont keep anything

icy swan
#

I tend to stash the day packs and scav backs till I have about 12 of them..before I dip into them and use those for my PMC.

cosmic tinsel
#

i'd go in without a bag and focus on surviving first, then

gaunt mason
#

anyway, i am doing a run to maybe do the two intro quests if anyone wants to roll with me

#

@icy swan what are day packs?

silver hornet
#

backpacks

cosmic tinsel
#

black scav bps, available as world spawns but not from lvl 1 ragman iirc

icy swan
#

day packs are larger black backpacks. Same size as the Scav packs.

#

Sling, T-Bag, the EOSS, Army bag, blue dufflebag and the blue skiing backpacks are the ones I use at first until I can save enough of the larger ones.

#

Also as a tip. You can put bags or backpacks into other bags or backpacks of the same or larger size. You can stack them so they only take up the first bag or backpack spot in your stash.

gaunt mason

drifting jolt
#

I followed the most recent gunsmith part 2 guide (Piranha's), and i meet all the requirements, except im 1 short on ergo, anyone know whats up?

cosmic tinsel
#

icy swan
#

Right?

cosmic tinsel
rugged yacht
#

Is shorline a good starting map

brisk rain
#

customs

drifting jolt
icy swan
#

Customs is..since most of your beginning quests will be there.

dark obsidian
#

what key do u need for the truck for the bronze pocket watch?

brisk rain
#

machinery key

dark obsidian
#

where do i get that

icy swan
#

Dorms

#

Or if your level 10+ the flea market.

dark obsidian
#

so dorms

#

im lvl 7

icy swan
#

Or if you need help..I can buy it and give it to you in game.

brisk rain
#

or we can just unlock the door for you

icy swan
#

Indeed.

brisk rain
#

lol

dark obsidian
#

oh that would be nice

#

ill try to get it on my own real fast but ill let u know

icy swan
#

It helps to do the quest, to learn customs and such, but help is also good.

dark obsidian
#

i know customs pretty well

proud lion
#

is there like a quick move keybind to move stuff instead of dragging

runic patio
#

Ive gotten 5 machinery keys so far today

#

ctrl left click

proud lion
#

ok

runic patio
#

“delete” key to fast drop an item

#

middle mouse button to fast examine something

summer zephyr
#

So how do you shoot the gun?

runic patio
#

shift

summer zephyr
#

I have tried every button

#

and can I bind the movement to my arrow keys?

icy swan
#

Left mouse button.

blazing heron
#

are servers down

icy swan
#

to shoot.

blazing heron
#

i just got disconnected because of connection but i have 30 ping rn

icy swan
#

Not sure..

summer zephyr
#

there is no "left mouse button" on my etch a sketch

dark blaze
#

im so new...does anyone wanna do a raid thing with me?

icy swan
#

The launcher usually has the scrolling red banner that indicates issues are happening. There is nothing on my launcher atm.

#

Do you have a quick keyboard?

#

Babodias

#

Just the numpad and arrows?

#

Or are you in here trolling the help?

dark blaze
#

is there gamechat?

icy swan
#

I can help Scottie.

#

There is no in game chat atm.

dark blaze
#

like if i get into a group with scavs

#

oh ok thank you

icy swan
#

People use Discord or Teamspeak.

#

There is no proximity chat save for emotes in game.

dark blaze
#

whats teamspeak

#

is that similar to discord?

icy swan
#

It's another way to talk with players.

#

Not at all.

dark blaze
#

oh

#

yea im in a group with other people on a scav run

icy swan
#

Are they using this discord?

dark blaze
#

umm i actually dont know...how would i ask or finout

icy swan
#

Well can you talk to the group your with in any manner?

opal gust
#

i just got level 2 workbench and level 2 shitter what are the most profitable recipies

proud lion
#

i think he may be in a group with a bunch of AI's

dark blaze
#

its on the "loading loot" screen

icy swan
#

Ahh..ok so your just loading into the game.

#

or raid rather.

dark blaze
#

yea

#

sorry, i dont mean to be annoying

icy swan
#

Unless you guys are on the same discord chat channel..your not talking.

dark blaze
#

ok

icy swan
#

It's ok Scottie. I'm happy to help.

proud lion
#

don trust them scottie

#

they could shoot you in the back at any moment

icy swan
#

Unfortunately that does happen a lot to new players. Used and abused for their loot they load in with.

#

When you scav spawn in with other player scavs you don't start -right- next to eachother. You start in the same general area.

steep crane
#

anoyone wanna play EU im really new

dark blaze
#

ok yea im in and dont see anyone

opal gust
#

check in the LFG chat

steep crane
#

o i didn;t see that

#

thx

opal gust
#

no problem

icy swan
#

Also Scottie it's a good idea to try and get a look at what the other players look like, weapons and outfits, to determine who is part of your group after you load into the raid.

dark obsidian
#

so i had a good scav raid but i couldnt get the key :/

icy swan
#

Did you extract?

dark obsidian
#

ya

dark blaze
#

just killed someone!

dark obsidian
#

4 kills to

icy swan
#

Nice Scottie!

#

bluu. You cannot do quests for your PMC with your Scav. The key will not be there.

dark obsidian
#

ohhhhhhh

#

makes sense

icy swan
#

The key will only be there as your PMC

#

For quests that need Found In Raid items however, you can use your Scav to get them that way and turn them in.

Hello all semi new player struggling heavy to do anything and have all but lost all my starting gear. trying to do customs scav kills looking for some pointers

dark obsidian

real talk though... scav ai is really wild now. i've had one triple take a pole. not even leaning, but side stepping how a player would

cosmic tinsel

all that changes is how many points of durability you lose on repair

it's awesome to be able to see them get more wise as the game grows 🙂

patent scarab

ohh okay thanks guys 🙂

short hare
#

only thing I do in this game is play scav runs cuz I don't got any weapons and armor for normal runs

cosmic tinsel

but I play like 20 scav runs and I only escape once

cosmic tinsel

that'll be super common.

@short hare go to #pvp-lfg and look for someone to teach you; games a lot easier if someone teaches you what to loot and how to extract

mp5sd is gorgeous but a pain to build

short hare
red flame

just a big sigh. means i waited on the quest for nothing lol

cosmic tinsel

nbd. the return on value of the gunsmith quests goes up as the wipe goes on

fewer people rushing the few key parts on flea

at least i got it without having to 'try'

just took patience

when you get a gun in raid you cannot use it till you ID it and you cannot reload it till out ID the mag

which is not done when you ID the gun for some reason.

On customs?

obsidian dew

so i have to press middle mouse button on guns before i can use them??

Only if they are grayted out

you only have to do it once for any of that type and then it is ID forever (till wipe)

zzzz

proper fox

Death screen will say who and where they hit you. If it's a Russian name it's usually a scav

hot tree
#

or no name usually means invisible scav snipers killed you

Thanks for the tips

@polar current Minimum exp requirement met or min time in raid is the only way to avoid run through

polar current

#

i think its like 15 minutes

polar current

TY

proper fox
#

And honestly id sell most mods for guns, its just hard to keep mods you arent currently using until you get the flea market where you can search for them. Keep scopes and silencers though

lunar jetty
#

@proper fox unless they are either good for me or expensive on the flea i sell them to PK for a few extra dollars

proper fox
#

Minimum time is 10 minutes i think

#

Im so bad with pk. I need to buy and sell more from him

#

I just need more money to get his level up

proud lion

is paracord any good

loud pebble
#

whos doing runs

proper fox
#

I dont think it's worth a lot

icy swan
#

paracord is good along with the Red Raider pick.

#

Paracord can be used for certain, and convenient, extracts on certain maps.

proud lion
#

oh

icy swan
#

You do need the Red Raider pick along with the paracord though. So you can either hold onto it until you can get red raider or sell it now.

proud lion
#

ok just sell it to the traders?

icy swan
#

If you don't have flea market..or you can wait till you hit levl 10

If I put an item for a task in my container and I survive, can I still use it? I heard that I can use it for my task as long as I survive regardless of if it’s in my container but I wanted to make sure

west bison
#

since if you die even items in your container will not have the FIR

bold kernel
#

If your planting it in raid yes you can secure it

#

keys work to

karmic night
#

Wait

#

If I survive with it in the container does it work

#

It seems contradictory sorry

west bison
#

does the task your trying to do need to be found in raid?

karmic night
#

Yes

west bison
#

then you have to survive

#

if you die even with a item found in a raid in your container it won't keep the FIR status

#

you'll keep it though

orchid crescent
#

my gun is currently stuck in a reloading state is there a fix

karmic night

Ok so the container has nothing to do with it. Gotcha. Thank you!!

orchid crescent
#

its hella wack I cant do anything

cosmic tinsel
bold kernel
#

@karmic night also if you were to have survived and you got a run through, it also wont count as found in raid

so make sure to either stay in raid for 10 minutes+ or get a couple xp

i have a thermal sight and i can sell it for 50,000 to a trader is it worth it

cosmic tinsel

lmao no

proud lion

it isnt that one

cosmic tinsel
bold kernel
#

its both

#

one of them you need 5 kills with

cosmic tinsel
#

they're both worth a half mil minimum

proud lion
#

ok

cosmic tinsel
#

50k is the cost of like, any decent gun

silver hornet
#

damn FLIRs are that cheap?

#

might have to cop some when I get more money

bold kernel
#

yeah you need 5 kills with the 60Hz

#

for a quest

cosmic tinsel
#

they've been that cheap

#

maybe not at the end of last wipe but flirs used to be like 200k last time i played seriously

silver hornet
#

they were almost the same price as REAPIRs last wipe

cosmic tinsel
#

daaaang

silver hornet
#

Last time they were 100k was during the 0.12 wipe

cosmic tinsel
#

i dont remember wipe numbers but i definitely used a ton of flir wipe before last

silver hornet
#

yeah that's when they were cheap

cosmic tinsel
#

makes sense

silver hornet
#

0.12.0 wipe is when they were cheap because they spawned everywhere, so thermals were dirt cheap
0.12.6 wipe is when thermals were removed from in-raid spawn pools and you could only sell items on the flea market if you found them in raid/got it as a quest reward/crafted them, so thermals were really expensive
dunno about this wipe

cosmic tinsel
#

ahhh interesting

#

yeah i definitely found a flir in white knight last time i took it serious so thats consistent

silver hornet
#

I found three on the roof of white knight once lmao

also is anyone having an issue with Dorms v ex?

It doesnt work

You need Rubels for it to work.

It's a paid extract.

@icy swan I know that

#

#

I stand next to the car

#

timer hits 0 nothing happens

#

car doesnt leave

#

its a glitch

icy swan
#

I have yet to try that extract today so I cannot tell you if it's just you or not.

#

Most new players don't know you have to pay to extract there.

#

Otherwise..yeah probably a glitch.

you'll need to pay dollars for friend from the west part 2 anyway

i got 2.6 mill roubles right now, and it costs me 1.3mill to buy 10.5k dollars from him, so hopefully the leftover money will be enough for a while

i dont know how to make it more clear lol

if you're selling SSDs at a loss, its more efficient to buy dollars

frosty compass
#

It's literally just better value to sell him SSDs if you want dollars

cosmic tinsel
#

so its... profit? better than 1:1?

frosty compass
#

what do you mean, a loss

#

you do know that PK buys stuff in dollars?

cosmic tinsel
#

yes?

#

what are you on about lol

#

wow, its profit

#

thanks for the tip fam im off to farm money

#

wonder how long that'll last

#

you can sell an SSD for 39k roubles worth of dollars to PK, so as long as you're getting SSDs for less than that its free money

i just didnt expect there to be a market arbitrage opportunity here

frosty compass
#

it's not arbitrage

#

cause dollars are useless

#

so you can't really do anything with them other than buy PK items

#

or the few other uses they have

cosmic tinsel

yeah which can be farmed into valuable FiR items through hideout

and sold for roubles again

otherwise leg meta baby

frosty compass

At that point just leave it at shoot their face and let them learn how thick is too thick

frosty compass
#

buck is crazy good for headshots

cosmic tinsel
#

its just a bigger hit area than bullets

#

and you dont need magnum for that but if you got lvl 2 jaeger you might as well have it in case you gotta go leg

red flame
#

7mm fucking sucks. And 8.5 has only worked against flesh for me.

#

so flechette being cheap is still the best choice.

#

flea market flechette is still cheap is what I mean

cosmic tinsel
#

flechette good for tearing up armor mostly yea?

red flame
#

I don't have jaegar maxed. I wish

frosty compass
red flame
#

It will do that and shred their flesh each time. And we're talking like

#

I've worn tier five and been two shot

frosty compass
#

magnum's literally 2x damage of flechette

#

fwiw

red flame
#

against armor tho it wouldn't even dink

frosty compass
red flame
#

Hence flechette being better. I think about if I'm fighting thickies.

frosty compass
#

and therefore different strengths and weaknesses

red flame
#

If it kills thick, it kills a stick.

cosmic tinsel
#

ima be real i think this goes beyond beginners assistance

red flame
#

Most definitely. Beginners use 8.5

#

You right

cosmic tinsel
#

7mm even

red flame
#

Sasly

#

Sadly*

cosmic tinsel
#

they wont have 8.5

frosty compass
proud lion
#

what about 6.5

red flame
#

If much worse is enough to not kill I'd understand a desire to dispute

cosmic tinsel
#

315 total damage vs 312

red flame
#

but it still one taps, and has the armor shredding the 8.5 doesn't. Just my preference since I don't like hitting legs.

frosty compass
cosmic tinsel
#

james you have views too 😉

red flame

But there's a reason me and many others run flechette

you're not really discussing though, just on a monologue about your ammo choices
