restart ur game

thats the mount for the sight

Its the Delta Lupold something
ty
would recommend a different reflex sight, pretty sure that one kinda cost a bit
can anyone buy me something from a trader level 2 i dont have unlocked yet
So counting up the tags I have collected, I have only ONE bear tag and like 10 USEC
Does no one play Bear?
I'm looking for a bit of help, new to the game, is anyone able to assist?
should i give gpu to mechanic for task or sell it?
is it worth it in the end to keep going with his tasks?
Might as well push your tasks, better long term return
for kappa?
If that’s what you eventually want to go for yes
can someone help me get jaeger note please
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521614489884295169/799894301895163944/unknown.png I love getting egyptian figures opon attempting to entering a raid
@bold kernel All you need is: Backend error
thanks
@bold kernel to unlock jaegor?
do you mean how to do it or help doing it in raid?
f
Really depends on the ammo, id suggest slugs if you can and aim for the head, dont give up the game, just shottys
rip, what map were you on?
for what gun?
m700
m80 is good mid tier and good
Or should i run 7n1
oh ok thanks
haha all g
ty
oh and btw m62 is a good inbetween of m80 and m61, but is a tracer so be careful using it from a sniper
ya
ok so right click the barrel of the gun
linked search
open up the side and go functional mods> muzzles > suppressors
or muzzle adapters
and then right click link search them
thegun
and right click the barrel
oh found it thanks!~
cool
the gemtech one is cheap btw
aslong as you have the correct trader level dont know which one it is
got ya
I was apparently not behind the wall in his screen.
was this a desync?
I was clearly behind the wall
Can't even use cover in this game sometimes..
What ammo should I use for shotguns
Where can i find builds for guns? I dunno what to put on my SA-58 and my VAL
Go to the shotgun that ur usings wiki page amd select the ammo it uses sort by pen highest and find the best one that you can get on a budget
Generally ap20 is best, but that isnt exactly the most economically viable option long term
Best place is youtube tbh
they pushed flechette up a grade, otherwise I'd recommend it.
Yeah i wasnt too sure so i say double check, im not a shotty fan
It sucks cause I still don't have the flea market cause I'm awful so I'm at the mercy of the level 1.traders
it's still very cheap for what it does, but I've also had it completely not kill something I've shot twice. which isn't good
shotguns feel meh right now, for sure.
@hoary stag thanks man, ill watch a few videos!
Oh ill drop it in a sec, but if anyone wants i have a giant playlist with good tarkov vids
@final hill every time you die as a pmc, don't buy heals. heal manually for the experience.
it'll help boost you up to 10 since the exp to reach it is minuscule compared to beyond.
what lvl do i need to unlock jaeger ?
can i extract the msg as a scav ?
No
No
ok thanks
Only can do quests as pmc
got it
You can prob find a sherpa do help you around woods
My bf basically walked me through it to get it done
If you fail a bunch pm me and ill help in a bit
I recommend trying solo, since it will stick better for most. 🙂
alright
Also youtube and wiki all your quests tbh itll help you get around as a solo
Also praper has a early quest to give you a compass which helps
yup. then at some point when you're comfortable playing, you'll squad up with others and they'll bow before you because you'll just exude confidence compared to the normal tarkov player. 
Reject rat, become chad
yeah, i'm opposite. reject chad. become the fattest rat.
rats aren't quiet, though. they squeak and scurry around
knock shit over. leave droppings
I mean id be lying if i said i was chad in any form
I've run out of stash space cause I can't help but hoard shit
You bag stacking?
Yes
I tell myself if I rat long enough, I'll become more chadly
Once a rat, always a rat
Even have EOD so I already have the largest stash size
Oh you fr stashing
you need to sell stuff, regardless of no flea market
I'm scared that I'll sell something I'll need later
Refer to hideout and fir quest pics
don't sell barter items. simple enough
liquidate guns and armor
bags. healing
healing keeps salewas
only actual healing item you need in raid i believe
well, yeah, but that's like me saying
That and pain relief
Ironically...I think that's the only healing item I don't have
Can i get a pic of the majority of your smaller items?
Not on PC rn sadly 😔
Ah
Thank you for the help though
I'm gonna just sell the higher teor shit I know I won't use and some of the tons of mods I have
Not a bad idea if you dont got flea or they arent fir
is it worth insuring guns ??
yeah
👍
Can anyone help me find jaegers camp?
sure
sweet!
jump into lfg woods 2
is getting the scav junk box worth it
yep
in everyway it is
you can buy it or crafting isnt bad tbh, but depends on your lavatory level
thanks
Was it BP or BT ammo thats better?
bt is slightly preferable
is there a list for dorm keys?
yeah
theres a lot
ty
cntrl f and dorms
Hey guys, I just started playing Tarkov and things aren't going so well. Do you guys recommend playing in a group to learn how to play the game?
best to learn solo tbh, always use wiki and watch youtube vids
but if there are any problems you can request a sherpa or come here if need be
Thanks! I'll keep playing to improve
Yeah you'll only improve in solo and duos but always more in solo especially in gun fights.
how do i get cases for inventory ? im out of space still lvl4
hey so i just got eft and for some reason i cant seem to download it
there are now crafts for a grenade case in the lav and flachette ammo in workbench
that or are you talking about the blue ones
the launcher?
at lvl 4 there isnt much, need to tetris till market, therapist or lav 2
it keeps giving the error msg saying "your file cannot be accessed
when i try to download the game
so basic checks are, got enough space, and arent trying to download to a different drive?
i find a lot of problems when trying to get eft on my ssd from my main drive
well im trying to download it to my d drive because it has more space
than my c drive
@hoary stag blue ones yeah but you can craft mag cases I guess
yah thats all for the blue, and the resell well once bolts drop down
not sure, might need to see a pic, does it give you any instructions or links?
run bsg laucnehr as admin?
yeah ive tried that
how do i just get the game as a whole onto my d drive
instead of it automatically going to my default drive which is my c drive
im trying to remember my fix, i belive i move the bsg launcher to my desktop or something
and the game was inside that folder maybe, either that was it or for another game
Found yourself loading in after everyone else, after having installed it on the wrong, slower disk? Want to get the game from a friend to save on timed and data caps? Well it's super simple to move the game from one location to another or even from one entire computer to another.

----------...
maybe give this a watch
anyone wanting to team up with a beginner im level 2 and getting smashed haha
@white rain what are you trying to do?
fair enough but what task are you on?
still on the start ones need 1 salewa kit till thats done need to kill some scavs in customs i think too
mod a shotgun also
im complete noob played a tiny bit last wipe thats all
ok 1 sec
yeah it says something about crafting them but i have no base upgrades yet wasnt sure if i should focus on that yet
should be the first thing to do
im level 2 lol
sell the black knives to jeager if possible, sell nippers, measuring tape. the christmas balls, use or sell the kirasa, sell dvd drive. sell repellent, cyclon
if you want to sell the brown knives too you can, you need 5 for punisher part 4 but you find them pretty often, they're also used for the mp5 barter trade
the bayonet you can sell too, and the 2 long wd-40
gpx you can sell for now too
Thank you yes I do have jager got him yesterday I've done the mp5 trade once so will sell the knives :) thanks alot
anything else youre unsure of, the wiki has like everything you could ever wanna know lmao
Appreciate it thank you
for punisher part 4, do we need to wear scav vest?
I heard you only need balaclava
Do scav hunt you if you only have a pistol?
because its glitched
where'd you hide
trade secret
im not much of a exit camper myself
what was the price for the labs accuses card in the middle to end of the last wipe
Ok I think I just suck guys haha, my longest round of EFT has been like 4 minutes, I always get killed, now im down to about 80k and Im out of options...
is there any reason to why i didnt get my insured gear back ?
Someone found it
scav scav scav
hey i just found a key with tape and the going price is like 2.5m but the fee i have is like 3mil? whats wrong here
yeah its fucked, you basically have to use the barter function
you could barter it for tetriz
do like 3 or 4 tetriz and thats equal to 2m
idk see what other people are doin
ah yeah i see a ton of tetriz and graphics card offers
alot of people doing 4 tetriz ima do 3 so itll sell hoperfully
Hey, Anyone wanna play? I'm on eu servers, would love some company
is there any meta to which dealers to turn in quests to if there is a reputation penalty on another one?
what was the price for the labs accuses card in the middle to end of the last wipe
What should I do with all of my dogtags, just sell them or keep them for lateR?
Sell em, killing people won't be an issue when you get a quest for them.
you will need 20 of lv15+ for barter a weapon
for a quest, and need some for tasks also
don't sell nippers, instead trade them for CMS to Jaeger
I'd suggest not to sell them all
is there a guns tier list or something?
or resources to see generally what guns are better than others
yes, gimme a sec
Visualization of all ammo types in Escape from Tarkov, along with maps and other great tools
btw it's ammo that kills in tarkov, not the gun - you can have the most meta gun and if you fill it out with bad ammo you won't be able to kill anything
ok i understand that ammo is more important but i have so many guns i dont know which one i should mod out/use/sell
and ammo types may seem overwhelming at first but in reality every caliber has one or two go to types and rest is considered trash
How Can I cancel the reload of my SKS?
right click, cancels animation, applicable to other animations as well, like surgery
Trading key with tape Dm
guys is it worth to buy the lucky scav box early?
ofc
i can mod any AK with the right ammo and they will all perform equally well?
depends joruto what edition you got?
there are just a few things considered more rude in tarkov than this one guy who needs whole hour after each raid to unpack his backpack
Basically, there are some good cheap builds out there
really its all about the ammo
Also if you are low level, definitely stick to single fire unless you are like 5 feet from the guy
is tarkov recoil any similar to cs?
how do you use the flea market? i just unlocked it
You can search for any item, or sell any of your items to players as long as they are found in raid
You right click an item in your stash and click filter by item and it shows you that item people are selling
Right click and click linked search and it shows all the items that connect or go with the item you clicked on
Like if you clicked on a gun it shows scopes, mags, ammo, etc that go with the gun
how do i sell an item on the flea market?
take a full auto gun, a few magazines and launch an offline raid to learn the recoil, it's much different from any other game
Use the filter by item button on right click to see prices, and then on the top right click add auction, then click your item in your stash, and if you want roubles you click the top bar and type the ammount your are selling it for
There is a fee to sell on flea market
Im not currently on eft so i cant describe it in detail since ots not in front of my face lol
@pure talon or use shooting range
oh no this helped, thanks so much! imma put some things on the market when i wake up, played all night getting from level 9 to 10 lol
Awesome. And remember to watch the fee, sometimes it is better to sell to traders. For example handrill i think sells for like 34-36k on flea but you can sell it to therapist for 36k without fee so theres no point in selling it on flea market
Yea ill look into it! Thanks a lot! 🙂
what do I do with the pestily mask and other streamer items
where do I get spark plugs
toolboxes/duffle bags/caches
Thank you
Hey. I've never loaded the game in yet. Does anyone one want to teach me the ways?
if u are EU sure.
anyone fancy a noob lvl 6 EU, do some raids
does tarkov have incendiary rounds?
^no
Can anyone help me understand the inventory and help me kind sort through stuff? Lol got a  bunch of stuff idk what to do with
3 lol
Anyone want to help me get to CF Fence on Reserve? I was training reserve with scav and all of a sudden I find a slick lmao
I am a new player looking for someone to teach me the tarkov ways
in lfg customs #5
In raid rn
lower lvl looking to run some raids US servers. Not 100% new but need a refresher after a year away
does anyone know why i am hearing discord groups out of my moniter and not out of my headset
Figured it out :]
hi guys, is it normal for my Scav runs to have missing backpacks after extraction?
it happens 2nd time already
scav has random gear so
can someone tell me the laser that makes a big red circle and give good ergonomics if im not wrong ?
Dbal
thx
When do prices peak and when are they lowest?
why is everyone so geared already on my server everyone has m4's and thermals already
i havent gotten into a lobby where i didnt get killed by a fully geared in about 4 days
wich map should i run
there are some places that generally spawn food, the biggest one that comes to mind is on Customs in the new construction skeleton building
in the center arsenal/bunk bed area there is food
but honestly just keep searching jackets and crates and duffel bags everywhere
you can try shoreline and go to the village area and go throughout the houses
just go woods thats how my friend got it
@crimson shoal all of them but start with customs
the new village has so much food in it
just rember your probally going to die alot so go in with light gear
anyone else going up against a absurd about of geared players?
nope
i am not that light gear i am already level 20
o nice
It's weeks into wipe. If you're starting out, you will get shit on.
PLEASE tell me what server you are on, im level 30 but i cant get any quests done because everyone has top tier stuff in my lobby
id usetarkovwiki to do them tho
floridians and texans are no lifers when it comes to this game apparently
umm try na servers
but its geting to the point in the wipe where the geared people are the norm jsut get good ammo and shoot the head
Please do and run customs so I can be the geared player lmao
gear or not a good round and fk them up
7n will probs 1 or two shot them in the head
Plus level 10 you have access to their gear
yup
where is the best place to find an ak-74n in raid?
i would be lvl like 35 but i have collage
hideout generator locked how to unlock
should telll you if you need something first to build it
if not then prob just need some gas for it
you need a sparkplug
how long was the shoreline raidtime? 50min or?
is it worth to buy lucky scav box ASAP?
100%
what does that do? box for items?
well 800k to go
its like 16 squares big
but has 196 inside
and u can put in loot items
ohh nice, thanks
If you like hoarding before selling to see the big numbers at the end of a day
Scav boxes are bliss
Helps save time and management so you aren't fiddling every raid
i should start doing that, putting all my scav loot into it then selling at end of day after i lose all my money on pmc
Yup. You end up realizing you never truly lose money after a certain point. 
i make like 400k in a scav run (that is a successful one of course) then i lose like 200k in a pmc run then complain about losing money 🤦🏻
Main reason imo for scav boxes are to hold quest and hideout items so they aren't cluttering your inventory. and yeah, if you're running tier 4 stuff and not modding your gun much
Each kit should only be around 100k
I never recommend running pistol for budget. You look sad sprawled out on the ground
i aim for around 200k when i have over like 1.5 mil under that i try to run budget kits at like 100-150k
and you cant even defend yourself against scavs most of the time
Well, ammo is tarkov. but in the case of bullets
My prefiring wall is almost guaranteed to trump your tapping
huh
shoot enough bullets and things can't avoid them basically
yea thats why any semi-auto guns just arent viable in this game
I still use semi a lot, but I also run thermals to bridge a gap in skill I've yet to do myself
guys how much fps will i get on a radeon 4GB RX 550?
That sounds so bad for tarkov
you wont run it super well is what hes trying to say
ok
Not every response has to be an answer, sadly
i have a 1660ti and i run around 60-80 fps
and I'm just an ass
what
how shitty optimised is this game
i have 6gb vram so what im saying is that i have a better card than you and i still run badly
Very poorly optimized.
its super well optimized for these graphics imo
ive seen this card get 60fps in other titles thats why
LOL
look at cyberpunk performance compared to this game
'hey dad this graphics card runs roblox at 144 fps'
'pls God I need it to play cyberass'
AAA games from 2017 etc
not roblox
thats based imo
it won't work, GTX770, which is twice as fast, runs Customs at 45 FPS
well fuck
2017 is actually 20 years ago
the gtx770 is 2gb vram and the 550 has 4, but the 770 is like 10x better in every way other than that so yea you kinda stuck dude
Past three plus years have been huge leaps for tech
doesn't matter they still have better graphics than tarkov lmao
Why can't i find any graphics cards anymore?
I havent been able to extract more than maybe 3 times in the last 10 days, thats it for me?
did they lower the spawn rate?
if anything the 15% increase to global loot made them more common, you probably just aren't looking in the right spots
I go to reserve graphics card room every time and so far in 25 runs i have not found a single one
Gpus are a high traffic item, too. So anywhere they spawn, you have an increased chance of confrontation
i think they may have nerfed that room im not sure though, interchange is better for finding them because of the 4 tech store spawns it has, if not then get level 2 intel center and craft them kekw
are there any other requirements like say "kill scavs with pain effect" or something like that
they might have died by bleeding out
you sure you have the right silencer, some of them dont count for it
is that your first raid doing it?
hmm that is weird
they might have died by bleeding out instead of from the gun
in which case it wont count.
hey i am new and got lucky thorax shot on a chad, i have now a modded gun, is it good and what should i do?
sell it and buy lots of sks
what kind of gun is it
ive been through a couple wipes and am down to help teach you some good ways to make money if you need it. just message me.
someone wanna help me do this quest on shoreline?
im in the shoreline chats
are you na?
im kinda to EFT can someone help show me the ropes and he me get better DM me if so
how much is a west wing 301 key going for atm?
best shotgun slugs other than ap-20?
Flechette vs armor 8.5 for arms/legs
ty
the others arent worth using
I just killed 3 PMCs on woods with ap20
not true, even though i prefer ap20
compartively, yes true
8.5 for face doesn't work for me
8.5 is nasty too, but slugs have range
one 8.5 pellet to unshielded face does more than 35 dmg
^
flech does justunder
oh, so you're just assuming they have no armor
if you want to specify, lol
most people dont wear face shields, and even still one buck to face will break any face shield pretty much
which is less than 2% of PMCs you run into
thats why we said to use it on unarmored targets
😄
legs arms face
I wanna know where all these chads people keep running into are? I dont see chads hardly ever... I think people see a more geared player and just call chad
yeah, maybe you're just walking everywhere like a chad yourself and seeing every person 😄
350 raids in this wipe, and ive seen maybe 2 or 3 tops
hi ire, this is beginners chat
Hi Meevo, how's the twitch career?
you can take that trolling elsewhere, friend @red flame
Im a lot of fun to play raids with, just took 3 friends in to 3 raids in a row, we completed quests each raid, and nobody died
Call it trolling because you are apparently getting rused. 
The burgers are falling out of your ass.
Ok, buddy
So I'm kinda asking for some help. I am starting out and practicing in offline mode, but am a bit weary to go online by myself because if I die I lose my base gun. Anybody have tips? Should I keep practicing offline with Scavs or?
try a scav raid
and then do very cheap pmc raids
maybe an sks, some meds in your alpha
Scav raids are when you spawn in as a scav correct?
yes
So will I have to fight other scavs? Or will I be shooting real players?
i can help you in voice chat if you'd like
give you some tips and tricks, and overall direction
good guy mote
tip of the fedora
I might pop in a vc here soon. 
just let me know... dying is inevitable... dont feel worried about losing your starting gear, it's not great anyways
you cant experience gun fights and fighting other players if you dont just play
When it comes to Tarkov, there's no knowledge like first hand knowledge
yep. dying is natural. most players have survival rates between 25 and 50%. insurance gives you more back than you'd think, especially when you've got cheap stuff
Yeah I understand that! I've been doing this, so I go into a map without scavs offline, kinda learn where things are, noises of the environment, spawns, etc. Then I bring scavs with online settings and practice looting and shooting etc.
you've already done more prep than i did when i started 🙂
yeah, that's good, just do it online now
you'll still get dunked on hard at first probably and thats ok
learning is the most important thing right now
^
im finding playing solo when my brothers are offline really hard. the only map I really know is customs but I get smashed within the first few minutes usually, and if I go anywhere else im just lost lmao
Spawning near big red is dangerous at first... but do you have the maps?
I do
You need to run around offline then and soak in the map
Personally ik I am just starting out, but "noob" to "noob" SeidoN_ like I said I find offline mode, no scavs, explore the map
guess so. im just frustrated cause im really close to 10 but I cant get any quests done. like I tried to do scav kills on woods and I get spotted and killed before I even work out where I am on the map aha
totally reasonable to be frustrated
you will get more xp if you're having time to loot, kill scavs, and survive raid
and learning the map is instrumental to that
its possible to learn on the go, its what i did
yeah ill give that a try. what map is worth learning next?
but i think i probably gave myself a lot of frustration doing that
shoreline has a lot of landmarks
and as long as you avoid resort its not too scary
I was leaning towards shoreline yeah
shoreline is more boring than most maps
but could be safer
just avoid resort
i think thats a great reason for a noob to play it 😄
shoreline is sleeper but man it is it profitable
all maps but factory can technically be profitable... but besides Labs, Reserve, then interchange are best
how much money can you make from labs raiders alone
i might go into one
agreed. interchange is good for noobs but i find it confusing
I'm feeling
spicy
with 3mil
I mean, the reserve raiders are safer for farming
ik im still poor but i wanna try so badly
ight so, situation need opinions, "Player / Scav right behind a door" You hear them, do I
- Breach the door?
- Open the door?
most doors wont breach
open so you dont lock yourself in an animation
why would you breach doors though
you lock yourself in animation
and half the time it doesnt open
also breaching doors is loud af
^
feels cool as heck tho
^
yeah feels cool asf when you breach a door
lmfao
yeah, and also breach doors are rare-ish
instead of discarding an item is there a way to just "replace" it
no
instead of pressing disgard
nope
delete key throws it quickly
If someone closes a door in your face because you're in a firefight with them, that is the time to breach the door. Just to kick it while spamming yell voice lines.
ctrl+click moves the item to the other inventory
@upper pollen bind your discard key to whatever your search key is + CTRL or ALT
If you see someone behind door, I guess best move would be to open it quickly, throw a nade or two or jiggle peek
so search would be 'F' and discard would be like 'CTRL + F' or 'CTRL + ALT'
can someone help me real quick
what's up?
building on this - klean did a great video on using your flashlight + blind fire to disorient and enter
where is warehouse 4 extract is it below or upstairs
i want to get out with these aks
in front of the doors
PP-91 is ass
next to the doors yeah
the main entrance to warehosue 4
the big metal ones
oh okay okay thanks
two big metal doors in the center
no standard doors, the big bay doors
9x19 is a rough caliber until you spend money
I have a loadout with silenced vector + 4 drum mags
I wanna take that shit so badly into labs muhnhnnnn
not fookin reserve
i got out thanks
bc bullets are expensive
i'm just using reg pistol rounds
thats such a weird extract
they do the trick
Pst gzh hidden gem
im prolly gonna up to ap rounds though
or hell
maybe rip rounds
I can put like 5 in each mag with rest pst gzh
Do rip if you want to erase people with a smg
idk man
is it worth the investment
i dont wanna lose 4 fucking drum mags
It feels so damn dirty buzzing legs. It's something to run when you get trader level
plus its one of my first "expensive" loadout
Like peacekeeper 2 I think gives m80 for 3 bucks a pop
That goes through tier 4 like butter
Definitely a budget round early on
yeah no
im so bad at the game i need an automatic to fucking survive fights
as much as i wanna use hunter
Sa-58 is automatic
Scavs spawn with it, too
10-20-30
Can be up to 50
oh 50 drum
M4 you need peacekeeper 3 for the m855a1
more expensive to mod bc of the dust cover and terrible iron sights
isnt m855a1 cheap already though
But come skier maxed, you get M855a1 for cheaper than m80 and it does the same work
Not down to 300 a bullet cheap it does get to lol
I thought we were talking budget and comparing

best bolt action to do the tarkov shooters?
ive been using the molot with AP rounds
clappin about as hard as a mosin for half price
m700 or suppressed DVL arent bad choices
sweet ty
expensive
worth it
molot scope is 10k
im not saying its not great its just something i'd use for SBiH instead of tarkov shooter
The sound is a bit off / odd
you're not the first person to feel that way. it feels good to me
but there are complaints for sure
To me it feels like when someone yells they are like 5 feet from me, but this dude was in another room down the hall.
I mean maybe not
im not sure if this is where to post this message but would anyone be willing to help a new player run the game and learn the ropes?
its the right spot. theres more demand than supply right now for active in game sherpaing
whats with all these vectors camping in corners
but there is tons of advice available through text here
On the note of stealthy’s question. Maybe not directly for a Sherpa, but how does everyone here like you to look for a group to play with? Just hit a random voice channel?
new gun, people are using it
Is there a good spot on Customs to get those scav kills?
look at a map for where scavs spawn, patrol those areas
scav spawns are not what they used to be. sniper scav points are good, otherwise i just float around construction, dorms, and the gas station area until i see things
Oh cool it’s actually active then, thanks. Some of the other games discord’s I use no one pays attention to it so you just have to throw yourself into a lobby haha
The snipers die about twenty seconds in :p
it feels that the longer you sit in game the more scavs spawn
I can get a kill or two per raid, just used to Interchange where there's some really consistent areas
it can be a crap shoot, but the crossheads near main bridge, old gas, new gas, patrolling near ZB1011, old construction area, and near bus terminal
just go to dorms
fast MT, lzsh, tc-2002, tc 800, bastion
dont do this
??? \
Except kinda do do this, I do have quests there.
if you have quests, but if youre newer, you dont wanna go to dorms for just scav kills... youre asking to die
chance for reshala spawn, consistent scav spawns
dorms scary but also scavs spawn there
yeah, but it's not worth the risk dying to PMCs
so many other areas are less dangerous for killing scavs
ay fox, if u work out a budget build main weap, run dorms
you'll learn more dying there 20 times than u will hiding in outskirts and killing 1 scav per game
Flechette Saiga has been doing me well and is cheap. I'll run there when I spawn near it
i mostly agree with mote on this one
@calm marsh Unless you have 1 of the 2 close dorms spawns, then it's not worth going, you wont be first there, and will run into the building to get shot by a PMC who beat you there... go later in raid if you go to dorms
and mote is seriously overhyping dorms, if u play patient you'll be fine.
Hi there, did a lot of googling and looked at the wiki, but couldn't find an answer to this. Does anyone know what I need to do to not get a run-through on a scav?
I won't be fine, the first few times at least ;p
game needs to have been open for 10 min, not you surviving for 10 min
But can't learn if you never go
not get 600 exp, and be in and out before the raid has lasted 10 minutes
from the start of raid, not the start of when you get in
Thank you guys, if I'm reading this right--if factory timer is at =<9:59, I should be good, right?
Considering fighting in dorms is the first CQB experience for most noobs, I am not 'overhyping' it... it is the most dangerous area in Customs overall.
If you're not used to fighting CQB then youre going to get slaughtered by PMC with an SMG tossing half a dozen VOGs down the hallway at you
probably while shining a flashlight in your face
dorms is sometimes boring, sometimes what mote says
@calm marsh search leg meta, be ready for freaks hiding in corners and run a flashlight
grenades run dorms, so if u got any left from ur new years gift, bring 1 or 2
u gotta break the noob barrier at some point. sooner you start taking fights and losing, sooner u learn
I’m new to eft, been trying to run a few offline raids, and doing some scav but I feel it’d be more helpful to run with someone. If anyone is interested feel free to let me know!
and i main dorms for marked room. it really is hit and miss, id say 40/60 chance of boring vs fun. bottom floor end of the long hall, the L shape is a good position, and u can enter dorms through the window there
Keep in mind with these listed items ^Some are late game, you don't necessarily need to keep all
Anything a new player should buy right away?
Always a headset, if you hear your opponent before they hear you it's already huge.
Thank you! Now that you mention that, I do see people just stop moving and listen a lot.
@bold kernel thank you

QUICK HELP
in raid and can't heal my thorax
its 0 and i can't use surgical tool
worked on limbs but not on thorax
stay on painkiller/vaseline, rush extract
if painkiller wears off u drop dead instantaneous
eat and drink, dont go 0 energy
or water
youre super lucky to survive with thorax 0
is it completely done?
now get to extract
so you can't heal it at all with surgical kit?
if your a scav are scavs supposed to be friendly?
if you don't shoot at them
oh
because I spawned with ADAR and factrory key on scav and first thing I saw was a scav pointing a gun at me
I ran and the second thing I saw was ano0ther scav pointing a gun at me
if someone is 10 m away from you and slowly walking aren't you able to hear that with headphones on?
some guy just walked up behind me and got 5 m close and he made 0 sound
possibly player scavs
new to game, need a squad
bruh i'm not gonna lie that last woods run was sus for me
like I don't usually cry cheater but the end game screen should give you more information on the gear loadout of the guy who killed you
also what distance they got you from
you can tell the ammo they used on the kill screen
honestly i'm yet to see a cheater in woods, and cheaters generally have names like "328291029" or "banmeagainnikita"
It was BP that tells me nothing
bp a good bullet that sails thru a helmet in both calibers
could have been an sks a silenced akm an akm vpo anything that shoots that ammo type I need to know if its possible to make legitimate accurate shots from scav bunker into sunken village with a gun like that and doing so that quickly and accurately
He dropped our squad of 3 in like 5 shots
which scav can penetrate lvl 5 armor on customs?
yeah, he probably caught you guys pants down, is good at knowing his range, and got lucky
in 5 shots 2 of us were down and he hit me 7 times through a wood building and cover
1 shot
i just got one shoted on customs in thorax with level 5 armor
i was at full hp
it was a scav that killed me
at the start of raid
as I said, could have been legit, very probably was legit but I would like to have had more information because it felt very very sus how quickly he wiped us, like he was snapping from target to target because we were spread out
i'd click the report button if you're ever sus
but you're gonna drive yourself nutty worrying about hackers if you're not in labs or resort
yeah no who would hack into woods unless they were getting desperate with shooter born in heaven
Should I sell my dog tags or wait
I mean you can also keep them as fond memories
Keep all dog tags above level 10
you need 21 dog tags for quests
I have all my friends tags and the tag of my first pmc kill
and 100 lvl 10 + tags for lucky scav junkbox
thank you tinyasianman lvl 25
My first PMC kill was a guy called "AssGrinder" xD
hahahaha
I found a NIXXOR lens in a run through raid. I have no idea what it does but I can sell it for 15180. Should I?
15k is way too cheap for a nixxor
you use it for security 3
what does security do? should I keep it til I can sell on flea market
it progress gates other hideout parts
It really doesn't sell for that much more on the flea
I found this one on the ground in interchange, I thought it was part of a tin can
theres a killer fal barter
so I should keep it until I can get that upgrade?
for nixxors
Anyone know why I can't hand in Gunsmith pt. 5?
not without a screenshot of inspect view
because the prereqs havent been met
In that same raid I got a Tactical Sport headset. Keep or sell?
read through what he wants carefully, sometimes you need to flip up an iron sight or fold the stock or some dumb shit
remove mag
Ty :)
sell
sell on the flea otherwise just use it
ok. Thank you all
tac sports, sordins, comtacs are all around the same price anyway
I dont have the flea market yet. Should I sell to ragman or wait till I have flea market
the headset is priced at that to sell to ragman?
Can someone help me with Delivery from the past Factory part? Im having trouble getting to the swing room with out dying

Ok
Yo is there anywhere I can go to get my account reset? I'd started this game not knowing how to do anything and lost all my loot after resetting my account and not knowing there was a 30 day wait. Is there anywhere I can go with this or am I just stuck?
any 3 wanna let me headshot them with a pistol on factory? lol
doesnt count if you're Q'd with em
OOF
just spam pistols until you're done
im trying to get suppressed shotty kills there now, maybe i'll see you there 😉
sounds like you already used the reset option. play scav runs and pistol runs until you have loot
Go watch youtube videos about Tarkov for the next 30 days if you are really doing that bad--other than that; ye ol' get gud applies
🙄
@cosmic tinsel lol pistol vs shotty i hope not lol
whatever you earn 🙂
sounds about right
runs are inconsistent
so do your best, put whatever you have into your hideout
push quests
and dont worry about cash/stash value
are a-2607 knives required for quests or trades or should I sell them
5 are required but they come pretty quickly. i just waited until the quest happened
ty
can somsone help m get jaegers note to unlock him i dont understand the map

Is there a hotkey option to move loot to/from one a specific slot (rig/pockets/bag/alpha) to/from a dead body's specific slot?
Yes

That doesn't move to specific slots
Then, sell the gp
the green gp are 70k each
im level 5 looking for someone to task with. I'm a decent battle buddy and not too bad of a noob

Can anyone help me get to level 10? I know the basics for the game I am just having a hard time progressing. Every time I pay scav I die quickly or my bullets just dont pen anyone. Lmk if anyone wants to run some and help me out :) - thanks
TY
sold 2
Should I sell my SKS to the mechanic for 14470 roubles or should I sell it to flea market when im level 10 or should I run it
yw
does anyone know if hot delivery actually needs you to place 2 or if its still bugged?
Playing your scav doesnt increase your pmc lvl
I am just trying to get some kind of gun to use as my pmc. once I die as scav I do either knife or pistol runs
riteon, idk if ur afraid of losing gear or not but ik that I definetely am. I usually do knife runs because they are super low risk and u can insure knife if u want. U dont need to bring a rig or armor either. Idk if knife runs level you up more or less, but if they are as good for leveling up as normal runs then maybe try some
Ive been doing knife runs over and over but just get killed super fast lol. Anyways what map should I be trying to play knife runs on
what are the cheapest guns? also should I sell my SKS
they don't level you up at all, other than looting, personally you should just get sks and do quests, quests are the only way to level up to 10 if you dont do quests it will take literal weeks to level up especially if you are new
Riteon, what I do when low level, and strapped for cash, is Penis helmet, any tac rig, backpack if you want, a base SKS with just PS rounds slap on some comtacs
and boom, cheap kit
also keep the sks its the best starter weapon, use some bp ammo from the gift then boom chad slayer mk2
^
@bold kernel mp5 sd from peacekeeper lvl 2
want me to vendor to fence again?
its a barter for mechanic level 2
plz
w a SKS and BP rounds, you have over a 50% chance to facetap altyn users and kill them in one shot
ok
anyone up to do some factory runs?
shows how good of a gun it can be with the right ammo
Reformed what map do you think I should play
customs just do you quests its not that hard, i dont know why all beginners (including myself) are so hesitant to get their quests done
ready?
anyone looking for one more guy for a customs run?
ty
Is there any sherpas on right now doing runs with new players?
where does one find bp ammo for sks
I just want to watch new players play the game but beginner s assistance so full
bp
flea market
oof

Im not a sherpa but ill run some with you
ps is not even that bad
ok
second best ammo for that caliber
is 42 ps enough for an sks run
yes

How do you level up a trader? can you sell stuff to them or do you have to buy stuff from them
ok and?
what map should i learn next, ive got factory and customs down enough to not need a map
buy a lot of stuff to level them up
huh
in the buy menu of a trader itll tell you how much you've spent and how much you need to spend to get to the next level
this dude got to the spending threshold by bulk buying berettas
just showin yall the best gun in game.
thats a bomb ass beretta
ikr

Anyone here still has to unlock Jaeger?
you wanna unlock him w me? @bold kernel
I spawned as a scav and immediately got shot by another scav. Of course I was like 200 feet from the exfil when I died from blood loss, even though it wouldnt let me use a bandage
what do I do in that kind of situation
you need a esmarch/hemostat/salewa/grizzly to stop a heavy bleed
that's why you couldnt use the bandage
yeah, so you were fucked
ok, good to know
main thing you can do is just learn where med bags are and hope for hte best
so i have no issues making money and i was wondering if spending 2.5 mil for the 11sr card (safe room exfil) extract was worth it ?
level 18
Quick question, gunsmith part 2: Wiki isnt correct or am I doing something wrong?
I had a keycard, too
Parts arent compatible
