neffy ill run some with ya if you want
I'm NA is that ok?
@bold kernel I am based in NA, I can run some with you
Im also new tho so I am not the best
i can play on Washington or Chicago servers
does this work as for killing scavs with akms?
we could go Customs#18
7.62 caliber and akm work
that is not an AKM therefore it will not work for Punisher pt. 1
nothing .366
aye finally got my first drop, RB-AO key. on the last day of drops lmao
whats the maps that i can buy from therapist for ??
nothing use the wiki you have better maps
aight thanks alot! ill just sell it then
856a1 tracer I normally avoid, run solo alot
I literally cant figure out where the fuck i am going.
What's a good budget silencer for adar?
@edgy sierra what map
Google maps and run then in offline mode
I've been trying to stick to customs and reserve
rotor
reserve can be cruel as people go kitted
reserve is the only map i can kind of understand even with the map sitting next to me
hide in the blue shacks and shoot people
everything looks the same on customs because there are just 3 fucking huge factories that are all interconnected.
I got a SA50 out of a scav run today, so there is that.
customs is pretty easy to understand
Customs used to be worse before the map expansion. You were just funneled either through the woods around dorms or down the street where a sniper always camped
but seems difficult to learn. there are so many walls and i constantly feel funelled.
it was way worse
the worst part i think are the spawns
most older players often run to the spawns of others
I am okay at orienting myself-ish there. But getting around and remembering what areas outlets are where is confusing af right now.
happened to my bro and i yesterday.
I feel so fucking useless at this game, and I dont wanna use any of my loot because I never fucking get the first shot on anyone.
had the same feeling
Play more patient boys
i dont have it anymore xD
unfortunate
i played the game long enough to know where the players normaly are and at what time
do i need to buy markers for scrap metal?
yes
I just don't feel like I'm good enough to put on like a full set of gear and not still get fucked
So I am just stockpiling weapons and backpacks from scavs
my tip is try and find someone to play the game with that knows the map and can give you some insight
if anyone is struggling to get the stirrup quest done, I suggest you get some level 4 armor from the fence, the ssh68 helmet from ragman, and a TT tokarev from prapor with a couple mags
is there a way to make your guns spawn with ammo in them?
guns come with a mag?
a lot of them do
There is that jeager quest where u need to headshot 2 pmcs while having tremor, it also says that a limb has to broken. Is that true? All videos say u only need the tremor
all of those videos are likely old
define 'spawn with ammo in them'
Like If I buy a gun and fill mags, when I get into game, I have to reload them with the filled mags
So tremor plus broken limb?
yes
Oh god
drag the magazine onto the gun
you can put a mag into the gun in the hideout
Hello which 12gauge shotgun ammo is best?
8.5 Magnum, or AP-20
Ok so this might sound stupid, but can someone tell me what the fuck im doing wrong? seriously. i just dont understand why i dont ever see anybody when im getting shot. i know customs map 100% and yet still almost every time i go out i get taken out from some dude i cant see. But i never see other people
Why does everybody always see me but i dont ever see anybody else?
you may be traveling in to exposed areas or really common footpaths
is it cuz im running a typical route??
Thanks
the more unpredictable you can be the bettere
whts the best way to spend money with skier to lvl him up
And whats the difference between them
i usually end up making my way to corner house, then follow the wall behind dorms and around to the factory area
uy stuff you can sell back to him
what kind of stuff
anything depends how much you need
How do I get in on the Beginner raids?
happens to me all the time as well
but i dont ever see anyone ever following the wall,
@floral rose i need 500k
because its obvious its safer to run infront of dorms than behind
how so? then i have to follow the main road all the way to military base
eitheer just sell stuff from stash or buy a gun or something and sell it back to him rinse and repeat to geet thee moneey up
my friend said that crawling makes the most noise in the game out of any movment, is that true?
AP-20 is a slug with the most penetration out of any 12 gauge ammo, 8.5 deals a lot of damage.
Love you thanks ❤️
alot of cover kigh low ground and trees to aid not being seen
ok ill try that i guess. i just feel like im doing something wrong because i never ever see other guys running around. but everyone always sees me no matter where im at on the map
I've had pretty decent luck going behind the dorms hugging the wall
but when i watch others play they run around kjust like i do
thats what i always do
your noise is a big thing also if your sprinting everywhere they will hear you alot then look your way so avoid hitting bushes as that a big giveaway as to you being outsde
sooo guys i just bought the game what do i do?
cry and die alot
Crawling does not cause the most noise. It depends on the surface however. If you crawl on loose rocks or gravel compared to a grassy field. @edgy sierra
okay ty
good luck
see i just quit caring about my footsteps outside, because i have never once heard anybody else walking in this game so i dont see why they would be able to hear me
people can walk up right behind you without a sound in this game
is it ok to pratice in offline?
die
depends on if they have headphones on so on and so forth
whe they are in a slient building any noise is clear
yea i tried the comtacs and stuff but i still have never heard anybody outside. only ever hear people in buildings
@sand badger of course get used to the recoil and that
offline it wont matter as you dont lose anything
yh
you can test as many as you got
Any, sks is good for cheap runs
Sks is good for ANY runs.
hmm okay one more Q: is the game optimised enough?
with the right ammo
i have 6gb ram ill be happy with 30 fps on low
nope still room for alot of improvements
which is better. AKM or AK74-M?
if you dont have 16gb of rams then goodluck
uhhh worrying
and a game on ssd
i have 12gb and have no problems
all depends on ammo choices
12 is ok too
well shit 😦
and a boosted HDD
most ppl have 8gb
Love loading for 8 minutes to be alive for 31 seconds
welcome to Tarkov, friend!
just make suree you dont use anything else to use your ram in the meantime
you managed to get a full 31 seconds well done sir
wait till you get a spawn in customs and get flash banged and lit up 2 seconds after you load into the map
my best was a 6 on factorry lo
My record is 2 seconds
ok will see
ouch
2 seconds for me on factory
red light hallway on factory
i hope ill get 16gb ram next week tho
it was my first game too XD
i love the glass hallway
ic you crouch lvl 3 and lean left youcan see right through the boxes and as the player runs through just pop out and ruin their day
lean is important as players will try to shoot through if they thing your there
I was pumped up to get some scav kills on woods this morning. Loaded up and about 30 seconds in i walked over a mine. was crawling trying to heal and some guy walked up and tapped my head. it was pretty pathetic lol
new woods can be brutal until you learn the map
Wich is the most played map rn?
learn customs first as you will be getting alot of quests on there
Customs? Probably Customs
Why does this game run terribly? Im on a 2060S and i7-9700k and on all low with view distance down I get about 65 fps
its tarkov locked to that
FAIR
do you have the tarkov fps monitor on?
I have a 144hz monitor and i have it set to 120

----------Tech Guide Details------------
In this guide ...
its locked to 60
honestly
cause that one takes like 10fps lul
best tarkov gun is five seven
best tarkov gun is the toz (joke)
The 5-7 is one of the best handguns, yes
57 bset gun in game
i think cus so ppl witch 120fps will have better advantage if u understand what im trying to say
but it's no way the best gun lol
i use svds cause its funny to snipe people
SVD is best rifle in the game
ok so if you choose to fight someone at 100m away with a 5-7 its sucks however a svd it shreds ita all about the moment of engaging and the guns best played moments using itto its strength
tip if you put your tbl on the bottom of the gun then your laser is more accurate
k done
it just means your bullet is just above it and you can hipfire from about 30 m away try it in your shooting range
yeah
may wanna look at selling your gzhel as its repairs not very well and use that money yo but anotheer class 5 or 6
im just using it cause i got it out of a stash
i know its ceramic and its basically a 1 time use
what should I run instead of it?
BNTI Korund-VM armor
eeeeeeeee 130k for korund
yeah but your gzhel goe for about 90?
so your invested in 10k but you can use it more than once and possible for longeer
LOL 130k for my ceramic vest
all depends on price imo the moree it covers the better
exactly bin it off and buy a better repair one
Armor vests are worn to reduce damage from gunfire. They are often complemented with Helmets.
To learn more about the effectiveness of body armor check the Ballistics page.
Escape from Tarkov classes body armor under the Russian armor system, GOST, instead of the more well known NIJ system. (See trivia section for more info)
if you look at this list and sort for class 5 anything other than the ceramic is better repair
is hexgrid good?
the korund makes you slower than the fort
can somebopdy send bets low settings?
hex grid is insane but does not protect stomach
pls
Actually the more it cover the faster it zerod
so what should I use
im new at the game can someone help me and play together
yeah however unless you have a high level on yourr vitality then losing any part of your body will potentially kill you even your stomach
plz
im only level 12 lol
hello pls
but dying is lame so i try to get good gear
i would use the korund get levels up then look at more
Lol i mean you got shot, ofc you will potentially get killed lol
yeah i see
It is obvious
i play wierd tho
na if you have the money do it
i like to like go to big red and shoot at people to clear the map then loot later
The thing is, if the armor covers many parts, it breaks much faster
but you also wanna be doing the runs worth the risk
allows you to edit presets and craft items
but reece
With armor only cover where's most important, it will stand after many fights
when i save my gear for when im higher level
people just call me bad and say gear fear and tahts just kinda wierd
yes your entire hideout is worth maxing out
what should i be upgrading first in my hideout tho
its personal choice who cares about what they say yeeah they might say you got gear fear but you also might have a 20mil stash to their 10 yano play to your strenths not otherws
heating rest space med station
water collector?
i look at it the cheapere you can go in the more of a profit you can make
all that stuff
so I have a junkbox medbox ammo box and like 2m rubles in items at like level 12
i have gone in on runs kitted got a goot load of loot but broke even because the ammo i used can to a stupid price
mhm
AP 6.3
is good
its not super expensive
but the 45acp mags for vector
almost cost mor ethan the gun
so i stoppe drunning it
i used to use 45 acp with RIP rounds
yeah i put that in a pistol and your golden
yeah it still hurts in a pistol
i just helped that guy do his farming part 1 and killed 3 players with a pistol
yeah
ammo>gun
but
gun= different kinds of ammo
so imo your gun is just as good as your ammo ect
i was also told
yeah i kill guys and tend to seell their guns and unpack mags of the good shit so its not costing anything then when i come to have a good amount ill run a gun of that type
altyns are a complete waste of money with all the BP ammo
how do i turn in my found in raid shotgun
has to be a TOZ
ah
found on scavs
so its been 'reparing game' for a while now and ive legit just brought it then downloaded it now its repairing is this a common or is it just me
or in customs stashes
ur download is scuffed
you might have to download it the wierd way
always nice took 2 hours to download
slow internet
my way of making money now
is nighttime customs
with Night vision looting stashes and dorms
i would try to reinstall completely and see
look more than 1 hour to repair the game ;-;
yeah i havent done many night timee yet but i keep hitting dorms with the mark key
hey im new got about a raids worth of experience 😛 im 25 and from uk looking for some guidance or whatever if youre interested in running with me drop me a msg
nothing to good to come out of it so far
@formal vale what you need help with dude
experience is something this server has in abundance
bit of luck grenades hurt alot then aye
just scaved in interchange and killed 2 fully kitted guys with a nade
time run out tho sadly
who needs to aim then you can just yeet a nade
lmao
why do people sell things for so much higher than NPC price
Most stuff are limited
i've got some quests on customs and 2mil in the bank, can someone help me figure out a kit I can buy on the flea to give myself a good chance of not ripping
Nothing will help you much if you dont know the map
I know the map fine
If you really know the map then you will be fine questing with minimal gear
after knowing the map, you should work on getting to know player traffic
thats the most important thing
player traffic is the hard bit for sure, but sometimes gun fights are hard to avoid too
That's part of knowing the map
Some confrontations are inevitable, but knowing the traffic will help you massivley avoiding other players
you can't always help it if you run into someone in big red at 20 mins left i nthe raid
In cluding spawns, hotspots, angles, tricks
I suggest a PM and your otherworldly skill to head shot...
equipment is only as good as it's user... if your still learning buy something you can afford to die with.
ok i see why noone likes customs
i spawned in big red went on top and killed 4 pmc's within the first minute of it starting
actually 1 of them was a scav
do you guys have some tips for wounded beast quest by jaeger? i always get the pain effect but its going away after a few seconds
Im gonna run out of money ;-;
broken limb is the suggestion I think
break ur legs somewhere n snipe or go factory jump off bridge and spray ppl
i'll try it, thank you
anyone up to play?
hey guys, so im just able to play the game, any tips for when i go in? what i should do ect
Do offline mode first. Learn the infils. Learn the exfils. Get a map https://tarkov-tools.com/map/customs learn landmarks.
Visualization of all ammo types in Escape from Tarkov, along with maps and other great tools
Number one priority is you surviving. I say. Secondary is loot unless you're broke.
Does anyone know why Taskmanager says i use 100% ram on tarkov when it only uses 8GB? (i got 16GB)
Would look for windows support regarding windows task manager... or #community-support
At a guess I figure 8gb actively used but it's paging more for future use... mine easily hits 19gbs on occasion...
I was wondering what’s a good weapon to just start off with
sks is the go too all round...
Ok and is there like a reflex that you can mount on it or is there some long process to being able to scope it
It’s around 20k rn I was looking for a more close range thing because so currently have no weapons and wanted to just loot factory, I also suck at the game and realize the maybe factory isn’t the move but I can seem to ever survive
*cant
Anywhere
what is a stash run?
customs is good early learning but if stashes are difficult to secure shoreline and interchange has some too.
And where are the stashes
oh stashes, my mistake i call them caches, idk why
Ok makes sense
So you can just keep running naked stash runs in hope of being able to exfil for some decent loot?
In basic terms
I've done some hatchet runs on shoreline for tasks and still left with stash loot... just got to take care to avoid contact.
just hope you dont have to deal with people camping stashes, it also happens
idk about camping stashes but i run into others doin stashes too lol
i had someone try to snipe me on a hill in the woods on shoreline when i was hitting some stashes
got him with an sks poor lad
Ok I’ll try to get a lightly modded ska and then keep that for a later time and just do hatchet stash runs thank you this helps a lot
mind the curse
No vest or primary makes scavs extra attracted to you.
give ai spawns a wide berth
Will keep in minds
I get the fucking realism thing but does it really have to spawn me mid match in the same building as someone?
Well, I have no money now, so this is fine
guess I keep running in with nothing till I get a fucking gun
I feel you snowm
;-;
i cant select "ANY" by my offers when trying to search for parts it always makes me stay on traders
Is the saiga 9 worth anything at all
Whos trying to carry me in the woods so i can grab this jager note and extract with it
@bold kernel so when i do my knife runs AI Scavs will be attracted to me since i have no vest/primary? is it like a big difference?
not attracted, they will hunt you down
Long live the rats i say lmao
They will group up and all run at you it’s terrifying
If you bring any primary gun you’ll be fine
I don’t know about pistols I think they save you
Pistol and 2 mags is the least you can bring to avoid tagged and cursed
Thanks guys lol! ive been doing knife runs just to mess about, makes sense to try and deter people just ratting about! 🙂
Just a pistol: Fuck that guy
Pistol and an extra mag: Fuck that guy if we see him
almost a milli, never gotten this much from a raid
why are the graphics card in your gamma FIR
Lmaoooo honestly true
i thought if something is in your gamma when you extract it turns not fir
Always gamma graphics cards no?
No it doesn’t
If you get survived everything is FIR
anyone wanna do some runs on customs?
lmao
oh didnt know that
@grizzled meadow that is only if you die
ok
Hey guys, I'm lvl 6 and I just found a bitcoin in a stash, should I just sell it to therapist or leave it for future ? I dont see any use of it for now
Yeah half a million for one haha
Def sell
Thanks guys
The trades with mechanic are not worth it rn
any restrictions for old gas stations extract in customs?
does it spawn at a random time in the match?
If the smoke is there it’s open for PMCs
But the scav extract at old gas station is permantly open for scavs that have the extract
right but we have it as an option but no smoke. it has ??? listed so is it just a maybe extract?
so its just a random chance that its open even if its listed as an option for my extracts?
When you spawn as a PMC you either spawn on the west or the east
And you get one of two sets of spawns
If you spawn on the east you will always get old gas station extract
are gssh good?
and i have so much shit in my stash and dont know what to do with em
I found out
hey, looking for someone to help me unlock jaeger, ive so far been able to get the note but ive gotten killed on my way to extract each time
what silencer can i put on this?
link search the barrel or muzzle break
rotor thread adapter then the silencer
anyone up to help me in woods for Prapors second task
Do yall just discard body armor when ur done with it?
you can repair it if its busted
after that ;)
like when its half of its original capacity @green token
lol throw it on in a hatchet run
aight
Yeah there’s no point in completely trashing it. Sell it to ragman if you can or use it on a low gear run
or fence
for chemical part 4 who do i do
No
He will either drop key with tape or keycard with blue marking with a 12% with key and keycard 27%
if not then it will be one of the new stems
I always rush the room and out of my last 5 raids someone always beats me there rip
you still need someone
Tbh it's not as good as much people think it is try east 107 or 222
it may have 3 ledx spawns but they nerfed it a lot after the first week
whats the scav spawn rate on woods?
Toolboxes. Check all the toolboxes.
better just to spend the 50k on them on the flea
Looking for someone to help me task
best bet is too wait till 10
which task
Ones on woods @fair apex
im down
Do yall keep ur zeroing at 50 always or 100
i know woods descently
I only zero my 366 vpo since the scope is too damn big
I didn't zero when I used a shotgun to snipe a guy
but it does help to zero
2 Man Squad 12 @fair apex
is 14gb's big enough for the game?
its not
You dont want your hard drive full
nah
thats the bigger issue
mine is like 20gb
also better to put it on an ssd if you can
yeah pretty sure its 20gb
Lf someone to help me in customs tryna do quests na
Can anyone recommend strong starter gun for brand new player? I swear I hit people like 6-8 times and they don't die and then I die. Need to get a decent starting build
What ammo should I use with it?
The PS ammo from shop or the armor piercing in my stash I got when I started?
best way to farm ophtalmoscope than key rooms
i need ophal for my thic case quest
Do I get a starting sight for the SKS or use iron?
u could buy the pso 1 from prapor but it is quite zoomed in so its kinda up to u
the irons arent too bad
actually the pso 1 wont go on the normal sks
so id recommend just irons
20 round is cheap
not really 10 rounds will probs do but again its kinda up to u
just remember if u use the 10 round magazine inside the gun u need to bring extra bullets to reload and not more magazines
Who sells 20 round?
peacekeeper should if you have LL2
if not then 10 rounds would suffice
anyone know how to move a game from D drive to C drive without Re installing it?
there are two 10 rounds dunno if one is compatible and 1 isn't or if it matters
just drag n drop then go to launcher settings to change the launch location
Clip
no one told me if I should sell this or not
i just died over a rock, are the servers having huge desync problems right now or is it just me? because this has happened about 20 times this wipe
i have video of it so dont say "well it probably looked like you were hiding" i was behind a rock there was no way he couldve seen me over it
ah sorry didn't notice
np
game is actually fun when you know the map
@hearty sonnet apart from flat disconnects servers been fine.
idk, i havent had exceptionally high ping lately, i just know i keep getting killed in the most absurd ways, like at one point i heard a gunshot at me and then 5 seconds later it killed me around a corner
im just trying to do this stupid fishing gear quest, but every time i go there there is a 5 man also doing the task, or something camping it from resort with a 40x scope
Audio in tarkov is notoriously questionable as important as it is...
@vocal crater Join the interchange lobby im in
ill play w u after this
watch my stream
its not audio, its just things i cant expect, my death is either instant like there is someone around corner who head eyes me, or its super buddy and unpredictable
boy this game really is impossible for a new player lol
fuck this game to hell man
not even sure what the point of playing is
just got a scav with a marked key (700k)
im omw to the extract and decide, eh fuck it lets take this stash
i get flashbanged, cant sprint, and proceed to get hosed
If you haven't died to greed, have you even played Tarkov?
time to try the game on my SSD hopefully runs better
i spawn in at customs, trying to figure out my bearings with the map, and instantly head shot
5 min to load, 25 second gameplay
got a question about a quest
Same thing happened to me i had kiba key spawn in with me as scav and while i was extracting i was getting naded and rushed luckily got out in time tho
like i am trying to learn but cant even get exp
quests
I hate when this happens lol
i have a quest from Therapist to find a in raid gas analizer and i found it and got it on me
but i dont see the option to turn it in anywhere
I havent found a gas analyzer in days and i need 2
is it cuz i moved it to my alpha container?
since it did pop up that i found it once i picked it up
If u moved it to alpha and died it wont be found in raid anymore
U gotta extract for it to count as found in raid
Can anyone help a friend and I with the Jaegar quest? Not really sure how to find him
on woods?
yep
must be nice to be pro at this game and be able to just trash talk people who are learning like the guys in interchange 6 😦
lol only people that are shit have to trash talk other people to make them selves feel good
What do i do if i cant do a scav run and dont really wanna go out in my gear? do i start with no weapon and hope for the best or?
you can do a hatchet run
wait can I not extract as scav?
im at scav camp exfil on interchange and says I need to bring PMC
but any near scavs will have you marked as cursed and they will rush you
U can start with no weapon and run to a weapon crate spawn and hope for the best tbh
you need to bring a pmc with you sometimes on some extracts
U gotta go to railway or emercon
also what does this mean
that means 8-13 players will spawn on that map
8-13 people on the map per raid
on one round
Anyone wanna help me with machinery ill pay something for it EU
Wel, made it out, almost got a 3rd kill but the guy ran... My stash is full so this is painful trying to figure out what to keep lol
LFG still new, US server. If anyones interested
hey guys, just joined the server. I used to play tarkov daily a long time ago and im looking to get into it again. Im pretty much a new player with eod so i have a little kick start. if anyone wants to play lmk
@opaque minnow im down bro
what channel do you wanna meet in?
up to you brother
went to lfg 2
is the search quest bugged cause it isnt counting the convoy as discovered but counted the camp when i died
drag med to limbs
Is there a cheat sheet of best items to prioritize extracting?
Or what to sell/what to keep
i would also like that
You can pay after the match, use healing items on your limbs, or just wait and you'll heal over time.
hi which healing items should i usually bring? i know for sure cms and splints
bandages, sometimes a salewa because hey stop heavy bleeds
they*
bandages over car kit?
dont bring all those foods and drinks
generally only bring in 1 gun
@dark obsidian bluu is my ign for a lot of things, I made it on diablo 2 so my login for things is bluud2 (streamers call me blood 😦 )
Depends how much you're willing to risk. You could just go in with an IFAK and hope nothing goes wrong or you could bring a splint and pills as well or a CMS or whatever you want to account for
I definitely wouldn't bring a car kit though. Salewas are just better and take the same space.
very cool ive been using it for about 12 years now myself across all the platforms ive had
bluu gang
is it normal to get continous server errors on a friday or do i just have bad internet
i keep getting kickedf
i have now died thrice to a 4 man at big red trying to do the from the past quest
should I sell the big battery?
can anyone help me do some woods quests?
do you have flea market already @short hare
I have a question i just started yesterday
save the big battery for flea
but im having inventory issues my shit is full all the time
250k right there
does anyone want to play and learn together?
level 6
if u dont plan on playing the game for a long time todo quest and finish hideout just sell everything but if u do plan on questing and hideout then keep most stuff and sell extra guns and armor u find in raid
or search up the item ur thinking of selling and it will tell u if its for a quest or not
anybody wanna run duos with a beginner? level 5. Trying to get to flea market tonight
You need it for an early upgrade in your hideout.
do i need veritas guitar pick for anythin else than kappa?
not really
peacekeeper sells one
eks from prapor works on some guns
like aks
can someone help me with my mic its not being seen by my computer but the headset works i'm lost
well I just wasted 160 dollars
and sks
does your ak have a bastion?
I can't tell with the picture but it looks like it does
ok guess I'll be using it without a scope for now
if windows go into settings then Blutooth&other devices and mnake sure you headet/mic is being picked up tehre if blutooth amke sure its connected
also check discord voice and video options in settings
@short hare You need an extra item inbetween I think. FFWB in short
Peacekeeper sells that item. Correct me if I am wrong
do i keep this or sell? 400k at flea rn
yeah thanks
now I can the scope
thanks bro
Sell those SVD parts unless they are for a quest or something
bro my stash is all over the place and i dont know what to sell and what im gonna need for later
Sell the gun parts unless you need them now or plan to use on a gun you already have
Those christmas decorations you need only 1 per color
Probably sell the armour, its going to slow you down alot.
yeah i know but im tryna get some more to make something useful in it
what about these
Some are usefull some arent that usefull I think
Flea market tells quite well with the price if its useful or valuable
If its cheap and you sell it but need it later on, its not going to break your bank
How do I get those boxes to put stuff in, also the even better question how do I get an M4 or something more American 🇺🇸 since I’ve only seen Aks and they just aren’t my thing
therapist tier 2 sells them
you can also craft them in the hideout later
therapist sells them for 100 dogtags(have to be lvl 10 or higher) or for 2 million roubles
@obsidian dew M4s are sold by lvl 2 Peacekeeper
Early on 'american' weapons are somewhat harder to mod properly tho
Okay I’m new so I haven’t got that yet
how long does it take for scavs to spawn in
lfg na pmc/scav i am level 2 customs runs
I mean I’ve got the mp5 from him but don’t want to use it since it’s not modded and it will get yoinked
2-3 minutes is the earliest i ever saw a scav
ok thanks
@versed patio Can be up to 5 minutes, bosses are (usually) immediately.
But any scav spawns dont HAVE to spawn any, especially when there is someone nearby
if u go factory pretty much instant
@obsidian dew unmodded MP5 wont be 'yoinked' xD
k thanks
if its a newer player they might yoink it
i would yoink one to
I mean, sure.
But if you mod it, it will 100% be grabbed
I just started playing the game today and im wondering if its better to play offline against scavs or play online against real player to learn the game and get the hang off it
offline to learn maps and get a grip on pvp for sure
@dim whale Both works, offline just has no risk of losing items (but also gaining none)
online to learn more how to fight
so first play offline to learn the maps and when I know the exits and stuff play online?
yea
sure
use your scav
@languid flare I cant loose my items when playing offline?
thats nice
@dim whale Yes. Cant lose any, cant take anything out either tho
thank you for the help 
scav has a 20 minute cooldown so go into a offline raid inbetween
and play scav again
^
thank you, I will do that
thats a good way to make money at the start
and get the hang off the maps
its going to help a lot later
disassemble guns before u sell them to
really?
You dont have to do that anymore
just take of the scope
huh okay
Mech pays most for all parts, except shotguns and bolt action, jäger pays more for those
every standard part should be on the weopon
extras like scops and lasers should be taken of
every other item is going to therapist
besides clothing and armor
thats straight to ragman
how exactly do u up ur standing with merchants
quests
thank you so so much for the help
Therapist: barter and food
Ragman: clothes
Prapor: grenades
Mech: guns besides shotty and bolty
Peacekeeper for SSD, diary, etc
I just screenshottet it, if I cant remember
do u have to survive and extract when grabbing the file from office to take to factory
you can also sometimes sell stuff to peacekeeper go get the spending up
are shotguns good in this game?
@dim whale Yes-ish
Not against armor, aim for face/leg when using buckshot
ok
I dont know where you have your face.
But mine is on my head
so when they have a faceshield go for the legs and if not the head?
Yes
kk
i didnt see you wrote face already xD mb
If you have access to AP-20 later, you can also go for armor, but only up to lvl 4, it struggles with 5
heey anyone with experience down to maybe help me learn how to survive, i have hit a point where i can legit not even run pmc anymore since im injured + got no roubles for anything, have tried several scav runs no luck keep on dying and wondering what im doing wrong :S. sad part is im not really that new of a player got like 160 hours in the game :S
magnum buck has two or three shot legs for me...
You can get ADAR from skier lvl1 in exchange for a "rec" battery. Then replace the front sight with a sightless gasblock from mechanic lvl 1 and replace the back sight with a red dot of your choice. Get 30rnd mags from Peacekeeper lvl1. And there you have it, a cheap starter semi auto AR with light modding - can do wonders if used right.
adar is like one of the best beginner ARs
<.<
Non automatic automatic rifle, yes 🙂
This
It indeed is
you also find it pretty often in raid
yeah from scavs, or your scav can spawn with it
You can get good budget setups with it
Also 100x better than SKS 😛
I cannot see the Kriss Vector in preset menu
Skier lvl 2 for 9mm
Skier lvl 3 for .45ACP
@hexed maple
Yeah i know that but i want to make a preset but cannot see it under the smg's
Hmm
Dunno, never search the preset menu for guns, always buy the base gun and edit it from there xD
hmm guys are bullets that op in this game? i just shot a guy 12 times (i checked the combat logs) and i did 277 dmg which 216 was mitigated wow
bad ammo does bad damage
i was 1m away from him though but i admit i was full spraying 😦
When scav running in customs I always seem to get in more gunfights with player scavs than PMC, chill out boys im just trying to loot nuts and bolts 😭😂
No cant see it there either, the only new weaponn to the wipe i can see is the UMP
cant see the new AR or DMR
does "damage absorbed by armor" mean mitigated damage his armor soaked up?
ahh you havent seen it ingame yet
@hexed maple Have you eamined it yet?
Yep
lol
@merry flume i guess so, i just dealt 277 and he absorbed 216 lol
@merry flume yes
Can anyone help me +1 with Woods tasks?
I have workbench and i have had the kriss .45 in my stash at somepoint but not the 19x18
ok then i dont know
yea 9x18 is russian isnt it?
9x18 is the Makarov ammo
thanks thought it was 9x19
Looking for help with tasks on woods
LF someone with high level traders to buy me a pistol grip i need for a quest, willing to overpay, dm me.
New to game. looking for players
can anyone help me with some quests like the jaeger one
Who should I give the quest item for Postman Pat, Therapist or Propor?
@weak perch Its not a choice, its basically both
I think you give it to Therapist either way and Prapor is done as you finish Therapists
Either that or the other way around, either way, not a choice
anyone else doing customs missions and wants to duo or three-o?
beginner missions.
and maybe the first woods missions too
Lfg to help me quest I have 90 hours so I’m not a complete noob na
Damnnnnnn, just extracted, heard the extraction music, and this pops up.
Pls tell me im fine xD
@crude folio As PMC, yes
As Scav, no
awesome
newb lfg to learn
is there a list of items that i need to save for the hideout and their quantities available somewhere?
!wiki hideout
Well, bot doesnt work
but in short: The wiki
On the Hideout page
@snow umbra
lol i got you, thanks! @languid flare
No Problem. 😛
Here to help
What is a Sherpa? I see the term thrown around a lot
A sherpa is a person that is in this server (and their own sherpa discord) that will help you if you either apply for them officially on the EfT Profile page, or if you ask them very nicely and they got free time.
@idle berry
They are Tutors basically
And generally knowledgable.
Though I will be honest and say that depends who it is and which topic
Ah I see, kinda rolling the dice depending on who you get as well I imagine
Eh, most of them are nice and good.
Just seen a rare few who.. uh, werent able to learn stuff themself.
Might look into it, im learning kinda fast but im probably making all kinds of mistakes, especially when it comes to avoiding/approaching pvp
im fresh 3 days in but I saved up 2mil for a lucky scav box
Are ya EU or NA?
EU
Alrighty, go poke @lament sundial when he's online again.
I know he's good.
(not yet Sherpa, but applied to become one)
new player NA ..looking to start the game but everything is overwhelming
Is it polite to poke a sherpa or is there a correct channel to do it?
@idle berry If you see one around, you can ask them nicely usually.
They might be busy though 
Coco the main thing i would suggest is avoid customs, do it at night time and spend more time hiding early. These are the things that help me at least
I agree the spawns currently suck a lot though
Customs is fine, if you know the spawns and learn to avoid them properly.
spawning west side of the map can be rough though I find
They already 'nerfed' the bad spawns a good bit
Especially something like trailer park area, you can be boxed in
"take 10 sec to know where you are" is a big problem
If I'm crouching and press A OR D my character keeps leaning left and right
any way to fix this?
are you pressing alt at the same time Zero?
no no
It sounds like you are pressing Alt, yes
oh yes
actually
I remember
cuz alt is hold to breath
so I can't hold my breath while crouching and moving left and right without leaning?
or do I need to just change my hold breath to shift?
Well, standard for holding breath is Shift, so...
idk why it's on alt
i think my default for holding breath is alt too tbh, i haven't tried shift but haven't done anything to my binds
oh cuz alt and d or a is smooth lean
damn should've changed it before, this got me killed way many times
lfg im kinda new but know the basics pm me na
lfg had agme awhile but just getting back into it could use some help pm na
I just unlocked the flea market when I want to sell something i open up the item and then click on add offer ?
Can I complete the ice cream cones quest thru flea market?
Oh, so thats gonna take a while then
4 hoses, bolts,
all expensive yeah?
to get water collector
is this good loot?
I usually do it like this:
Check the price of the item at the best selling trader, then rightclick -> Filter by item
Check if its worth it
If it is:
Add offer, put the price I want in requirements (standard = roubles, but can, in theory, be anything)
And then place offer
Watch the fee though.
Over/underprized items cost a high fee
Not as much anymore, but still, yes
Any raid you survive is good.
Whata bout killing Killa?
Can I just join a group and loot killa that way?
Okay thanks I put up graphic card up for too much but now i cant sell it anymore is that a bug?
I mean, Killa can have the mags, yes
@gaunt finch
But dunno if thats the fastest way, considering how much Killa can sometimes reck your life 😄
Well I'm not ready to go into woods
Woods scares me, didnt even do the shootout picnic quests
Iam confused
You put it up for too much?
Did you take it back out of flea?
It should still be FiR
Like I said, bunker is not spawning them like crazy anymore
@gaunt finch Killa is in Interchange, and my suggestion would be like buy a Vepr hunter and a few bullets of m61, thats how i got the quest done
Yeah I put it up and got it back but know it cant be sold on the market anymore
ik, but thats my cheapest solution rn
Spend money to gain money
^
@fierce moat Can you screenshot the GPU please?
Yeah wait a sec.
me and my buddy are having trouble with "search mission" for prapor on woods could anyone help us do it?
you cant find it?
could any one help me get scav kills on woods lol and finish jaegers first task
shits been tough lmao
Top left, below scav bunker the two beige rectangles are the camp, to the east of it on the curvy road is the convoy
@past mesa
^
thanks
The checkmark is not there anymore ;C
anyone wanna run it with me?
i can i need scav kills @past mesa
@fierce moat I dunno why, maybe try a restart?
But usually it should keep the check mark
shrug
i do to lol
been doing it for like 3 days only have 1 kill lol
It completly works fine i just tested it with another card
@fierce moat if not i can give you 200k for it 
How you gonna do that?
in raid, you drop card, he drops money
^
200k is the max you can give though so...
ahhh we can do that i you want
aww yeah, NA? or EU?
Doesnt matter, east coast both can play on
Im EU and by the way how can I put up more that 2 Offers on the market?
You should have three from the start
you can have 3, and it goes up 1 from each 10.00 rep you have
But you raise that amount by getting your reputation on flea up by selling a lot
What makes the red card so damn much?
Not really I once tryd and i got disconnectet the whole time
And 10 is just the fourth slot, after that its 25 rep @shell sable
@fierce moat I play constantly on east coast
shrug
120ping
@polar current Rarity, loot behind it
I only have 2 lmao
was?
@fierce moat You got negative rep?
oh right
0.02
-0.02?
nope but theres a red arrow facing down
yeah then its negative
Apparently you only have 2 slot till you have 0.2 rep, huh
anyway where you from
Okay i guess it goes up the more i sell things
also, arrow down only means you lost some points recently (from taking off the GPU from flea)
Okay
any one can help me filter the ammo i have? to what i should keep ant what to remove?
@pulsar kite what ammo you got?
@fierce moat Im EU, so just let me know when youre ready
Sure im allready ready
you have a slingbag?
factory?
Are you good at this game? ;D
Get rid of: FMJ43, P gl, 9 P gzh
PS gs PPO, PSO gzh
12x70 Led Slug (light blue)
SF slugs
PRS, PS (5.45, not 762 PS)
US, EKO
T46M, 7BT1, TPU sP and Ultra Nosler
^
I have a secure case docs something like that i wonder if you could help me maybe bring it to the right place when i gave you the card
im new dm me if you will help me learn how to play ]
so i can wear full level 5 armour
but if no face shield, buckshot 1 taps me?
Whattttttr
oh on factory? @fierce moat
Thats crazy
Yeah I think so
did you get the folder in ''big red''?
@languid flare and these
Im dm you okay ?
@pulsar kite Those too
garbage @pulsar kite
Just run svd with SNB or a shotgun ez clap
Most of those wont sell well, cause they are bad @pulsar kite
So, probably 99% to mech
so its better to try to reach the spent ammount on a dealer with them
thank you so much , i had shit can fill another ammo box alone xD
does anyone know if they added the head mounted lights this wipe or 2 wipes ago? my friend says he has used it before 2 wipes ago.
LFG new to game
