damn that rifle is 1.2m
should be no rail
the rsass yea ik lol
how tf
Thats the only empty slot I have
its for a mission
lol
stack ur bags?
stack all ur bags into 1
Not worth, they are 1:1
it clears space
so its not worth it to even have them out
They are full
when can i ulock it with peacekeeper?
get a junk box
yea i dont even have tasks with peacekeeper
should i just buy it off flea market?
u need to do skiers task to get peacekeepers
yea ik
you have any marked room keys?
i have the customs
i do
and reserve
the first time i went to the dorms marked room i got the rsass lol and sold it
2 quests for therapist tier 2? Nvm I need lvl 13 and im only lvl 3
u can lvl her easy
Im lvl 3
I have 1 akm, 2 ak-74m and 2 m4a1 standard. Should I sell the akm for space?
its up to you
It only has 10 rnd mags
also have rpk and mosin + 2 mp5 and 2 other random guns
That should be enough for lvl 10 no? Even if I sell akm
well u can always get better weapons and more modded weapons during raids
I dismantle and sell to mechanic right?
no
just sell to Mechanic
don't strip it down, just sell it
ok
strip down stuff you find in raid, dont bother with stuff once its out of raid
as a rule lights sights and grips are going to be worth more per slot than the gun, and wont be as large
So in raid if tight on space only take lights sights and grips?
yeah
Ok thanks
and bonus points if its stuff you like to use
because it sells for not a ton of money to mechanic, but would cost you a bunch more on flea
Yeah, ill keep the sight on this akm becuase I want to use sights but Ill just sell the rest.
thanks
you got it
the raid I did was a scav, Ill try a pmc and see how that goes. Thanks for the help
confused af?
What’s confusing?
i cant complete the quest after turning in the document case :/
and i cant find information about the deputy thing?
Why cant this go on ak-74m? it says its compatible in inspection
You got the item from the train car on customs?
There’s some lock that has to be put on the gun first. It’s really expensive I think
Oh, in that case ill just sell this since I dont have flea market. Thanks
How do I hand in the selewa kits? I just sold one to her but it didnt give me +1
They have to be found in raid, and you have to turn it in from the quest screen. Selling it to her doesn’t count
You have to actually 'turn in' the kit from the same place you accepted the quest.
i got the item from the train cart, turned it in.
but i need to find informations???? to finish the quest?
For the salew kit quest I assume some maps have med loot spawn where u can find medical Items right?
yup
I hope customs has. Im trying to get good at it before I pick a new map
Also can you passively heal a fracture out of raid? I extracted with a fracture, game crashed so therapist heal didnt work and next day i still had a fractured arm.
no
Ok thats useful to know. Thanks.
you can buy a splint and use it in your inventory too
yp i got the itrem on train cart.
so i made a budget adar and what gear should i take out (helmet,bag,etc)
I used a splint to fix it. Not sure if I had during raid
hey i bought the game today and just finished installing can some1 give me a run throug?
wiki and pestily will help you alot
I got armor and shotgun in raid for the first skier quest but its not working
@fading quest take at least t3 armor and buy the bank robber from lvl1 rag
any tips for doing the "Delivery from the past" quest for Prapor
and btw adar is one of the best guns for you to use rn because it fires m855 sold by lvl 1 peace
its literally impossible pmc keep camping red building and i managed to get it one time and died in fkin factory
now i have to do it all over again. Man this task is hard
duru lay in your spawn for the first 15 minutes no cap
I'm about to honestly
if you hear fighting there wait another 5
then i have to do factory its really rough as pmc
factory is 4 rats with shit gear and 1 kid who knows whats up
just dont panic youve got it
thnx
How do i know if my gas analyzer is found in raid?
Maybe I’m the only newb that didn’t know. But I bought the standard edition EFT. Went to the website to upgrade and before I could even find that option I found a holiday New Years package of loot that I just had to click to accept then it game me ammo box tons of Grenades helmets sweet lmg a bunch of loot. Was hard to find space for it all but it was a nice surprise
when i picked it up it told me that i could hand it in, but now i cant seem to
it'll have a checkmark on the bottom right of the item, if you leave the raid to early or not get enough xp it wont be found in raid, also if u die with it in a container itll lose found in raid aswell
wait how do you get that?
I went to escape from tarkov.com which brought me to the battle state website... logged into my account and then scrolled down and there was a holiday loot bundle to accept. I did and it said successful then I went in game and it was in my messages bottom right of Home Screen in game
It was given to you if you bought the game around new years
oh ok
what is better? AKMSN or AKM
If any EU need any help just drop me a message, I can do some raids too
wheres a good spot to find emelya croutons?
holy shit I've been playing this game for years and I completely forgot they sent out these packages. Time to go claim all of the loot that I've desperately been needing lmao
yo does some have skeltonized ar15 pistol grip im trynna get one for gunsmith part 13 ill suck ya toes and trade something
I'm fairly new to the game and dk if I just got killed by like shturman or a hacker, i get chained no shots missed, and doesn't say how I died. Is this just AI or a hack thing?
@edgy mason pretty cool to be honest. i got quite a bit. now for the tip how about ya help me with a raid lol mr Vet 😉
@random ridge what map were you on
customs @mossy gyro
Where were you? Probably the hidden AI scavs that shoot at you if you cross a boundary
Not customs , woods sorry
yeah, there are snipers there too
You walked out of the map
my second times playing woods lol. not a good start
Are the customs maps on the wiki up to date?
yup
lmfao fair enough. add me on tarkov - ExquisiteSalad. I'll probably be on tonight after work
Thanks!
If i wear headphones i can also hear my own steps while walking very slowly, can the other players hear me footsteps as well? Both without and with headphones
yeah very faintly. you should be good a lot of the time if you're sneaking up on someone who you can clearly hear walking, as they wont clearly hear you enough to even notice you @hoary yacht
Awesome, thank you.
@hoary yacht generally speaking yes but it's super difficult to hear unless they have a high perception level or they have their volume as loud as it goes. as long as you avoid glass, metal, and wood you should be okay for the most part
What do you have to do to get into beginners assistance?
wait for an opening
just joing when a lobby isnt full 5 is full they fill and stay full
Awesome, thank you. That's good to know. I avoid wearing headphones since it makes verything so much louder
Gotcha! I didn’t want to just go in on one if I wasn’t supposed to
headphones make footsteps & gunshots much louder but it negates background noises. they are super useful in order to hear enemies and they will help keep you alive more than not
just dont be an asshole
Fair
yeah you can hear people like across buildings. like if you're in dorms 2 you can easily hear someone in the three story dorms with headphones
they are a game changer
are items like paracord just used for barter or do they serve in game purpose... trying to figure out what to sell and what to keep
ANyone wanna play woods?
headphones are so cheap aswell theres no reason not to use em
you need i think 4 found in raid paracord for an end game mission, and also 1 to do red rebel extracts on woods and reserve
they also are used to barter for the SICC case
@flat skiff you need 3 for a quest and you also need them for a S I C C case which is super useful
SICC Case is life
i just got mine again im so happy 🙂
my god i'm jealous. I don't even have my damn docs case yet lmao
i cant find a lion anywhere on the map
lions are tough. keep crushin safes
^
yo is the key with tape even worth selling or does it sell? the fee to sell it is 600k while it goes for a mil
Barter it. Not really worth selling straight up
barter trade it for a scav junkbox
what do i barter the key for?
@edgy mason that document case was an item i got in the holiday package just now whats it do? yall taslking gibberish to me haha. Excited to learn
oh man its amazing
you can put it in your alpha,beta, gamma whatever youve got and you can fill it with keys that you want to take into raid
that way they take up almost no space and you can keep it safe in your container
it also holds money, diaries, and intelligence folders as well
its for sure worthwhile to have in your container at all times, jsut make sure you dont take it out cuz it worth a lot
Should I trade 8 knives for an mp5 or 8 knives for 2 P226r pistols?
pistols
@edgy mason i only have a 2x2 alpha lol boooo need to figure out how to get that larger
just buy edge of darkness lol
you have to do quest or buy them off flea or yon buy a better version of the game
the key is used in a quest later and it also has several potential ledx spawns. its a great key. that said its a reasonably common sanitar drop, so if you wanna keep fighting sanitar you might as well sell this one before the price goes down
Any ammo recommendation for these guys?
7n31/Ap 6.3 is the best. Pst for budget. RIP / Lugar for leg meta
Both of those rounds are low pen. If they have armor go for the head/legs
how long do i have to wait if i didnt kill anyone for my raid to not be counted as run down
Whats a good ammo for the PM pistol?
10 minutes @buoyant shale
There really isn't great ammo for 9x18 IMO. Just get something cheap and aim for the head. If they have a visor run.
thnx
How do I cure my aching depression after losing 2x gpu spawns cause I bled out by a light bleed as scav
ok. I am planning to run the PM with my SKS loaded with PS. Does that sound alright?
Id personally opt out of bringing a PM. Just extra cost for little use.
ok
At what point do you stop using a piece of armor? Like, this class 4 is at 39 for example. Should I keep using this or no?
like i doubt there will be any left by the time you join as a scav
so just an sks?
So use it until I can't repair over 30? Or is it close enough to 30 now that I'm just going to regret using it?
Oh I already did, it's at 39.3/39.3
depends
like gen4 you should stop using at 40
but armor like that stop using at like 25 i'wll say
mine is 47
hmm. What do you mean by gen 4? That's something different from class 4?
i only use it for my task runs
if i go for resort shoreline i run hexgrid or korund only 100k for prapor level 3
its a armor name
gen4 is name of armor
its tier 5 armor
@cinder hawk Read the wiki page about armor durability
Ctrl + F and type Durability
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics#:~:text=The durability damage taken from,including from individual buckshot pellets.
@cinder hawk Use those to gauge for yourself when a damaged armor is not worth using
Im not going to talk about anecdotal evidence regarding a single piece of armor vs another
when that webpage will show you how to identify EVERY armors durability and effective use at said durability
the gen4 full protech your stomac and your armors anf throx, it has 95 dur
which is a lot
@cinder hawk
I need help with the map idk where any exits are and I just keep dying out of nowhere I’m almost out of stuff
I hate the gen 4
why?
I dont need my arms to hip fire with a shotty
in my opinion the price and the dur korund is best, only 100k
its not the best proteching the only bad thing about it it has less dura but its so cheap for level 5
Ye
I really like the Korund. I keep finding them for like 50-60k from fence then just repair them super cheap lol
that is the good thing about it, cheaper to repair than gen4
what is the key with tape worth barter trade i have one im trynna sell an extra one i got
i think the game thinks its worth 350k
so if you charge more than that the taxes will eat you alive
this is why everyone has barter only for the key 🧠
@undone flax
whats it worth barter then im just trynna sell it and not get hella ripped off
around 350k~?
you can upcharge in bartering to around a million
ask for like a graphics card or something
seems reasonable
see what other people are asking
and do what you gotta do fam
yea ik but like theres a thousand barter for it already what should i reqest for that id actually get
oh kk
look at what others are asking for
and undercut them
If the 10 more recent barters are asking for 2 gpu's per keywithtape
ask for 1 gpu
still worth
cause u cant sell the key for more than 350k without losing money
PROVIDED you have a bitcoin farm to put it in
i tried to put it up for a ledx and that didnt sell so i ended up wasting 250k on fee already
Gotta do math and hope for the best
ill try the 1 gpu then
yea i just hate the market fee now it used to be easy to sell an expensive item
someone may trade that key for your key
Means we gotta be more creative ;)
Or just get super lucky and ask for a higher price item and hope the person is dumb
^ 🤣
I love it
Thats how I got my ultra medical for my tape key
hoping people are dumb doesn't sounds like good advice for beginner's assistance...
I mean
Especially given that he already lost money in fees
I guess
but if you have spare cash for taxes and wanna try
I mean Id do it 🤣
@mossy gyro I feel where your coming from tho :)
On the brightside you can only be so bad
until you are literally at the bottom--and there is no where to go but up
🤷
I have nearly 50 hours and its just getting worse. Its driving me absolutely mad
Welcome to Tarkov
try watching pestily?
Watch pestily
I do
well
practice
The raid series?
Play a lot slower... I try to hit extract last 2 minutes... a lot are out by then I play slow slow!!!!
got my ultra to a person trade for a tetriz
500k
so dumb
That raid series isnt exactly helpful since he isnt new player skill either
Lmao
50 hours is still rookie hours. You wont get gud until u hit like 200+ hours
so I cant just mirror what he does a player
maybe 100+ hours if u take in the info well
Yea; all the stuff he doesn't tell you--you learn from hours of playing the game
I just lose the gear
and I have nothing to fear
You'll play so much h better if you loose your gear fear
also hi @leaden garnet
Even if it cost you your entire stash
That’s what happened to me I lost almost everything bc of that.
Lol
yooo lunar, hope wipe is treating u well
Customs usually
then I was doing Reserve consistently because of a few nice keys I got
...
its all good @mossy gyro i have 1.5k hours and still get smacked around from time to time
@leaden garnet level 23 and banging out so many quests Im stuck from doing them until I level up; think on a week of playtime or something this wipe
so yeet!!
hope its doing good for you too
what is punisher part 1
still a bunch of things i learn everyday
But I've watched so much tarkov
i reset my account numerous times when i first started out
Ik what spots and maps I should do
watching is a lot different to playing
I'm brand new. Have less than 2 hours just poking around. I'll go lose all my starter gear once I figure out how to figure out which direction I'm going.
haha
what i do when i low in money/gear is run shoreline and loot the stashes
if u dont know shoreline
then u can use mapgenie.io
I want to learn reserve and interchange
But I like customs too much to actually learn them
'once I figure out how to figure out which direction I'm going.'
Damn this man can't even begin the process of navigation 🤣
I love you @molten oak and hope you do well all the same that made me laugh
interchange is a rat map, always gotta keep ur eyes out
same
I only run my scav on reserve
I just have to pick a map and tattoo it on my hand or something.
reserve is good but if u kno it. like where the crates are and what not
or wait for them to make a compass I have to take out of my pocket
@molten oak I did that for customs
@molten oak Tattoo back of eyelids
everytime you blink--you can't miss it
😄 I'm fine with being terrible for a while while I learn. I even thought of selling everything worth more than a pistol in my stash in preparation for losing it all.
just run customs with nothing. it's an easy map to learn.. watch videos like "Tarkov Custom Guides"
Navigation isnt my issue its just being killed from no where all the time
Not on naymore
Ahhh
I am going to take a break lol
I was gonna say I get off work at around 12:30 am
I could help you run customs and make money
What’s a good naked load out for quick customs right. And such like what you bringing at bare minimum
A pistol and a bank robber
PM shit rig
Bank robber
Bank robber ris only 10k rublez
If you have enough usd then buy the m9a3
What pistol
M9a3
im level 13 what should i sell
From peacekeeper
Hmmm
It depends
On what you want to keep
Cuz alot of that is good for hideout and quest
Do u use hideout a lot? Like for craft or upgrade
its my first wipe
Kk sell the d fuel, diaries, ssd lamp, paracord unless u got a rr, all the tape, tea, meds, bloodset
Fireclean used for upgrade
dont i want to make intelligence from diaries tho?
Workbench lvl 3
Oh
U use scav case?
wat
Go to crack house on customs
Go to the second story
And the library
Theres like 4bor 5 spawns for intel
Super good
i know that spawn but how often do they actually spawn?
and i reckon as a beginner ill get domed by some mega chads
why would there be a library in a crackhouse lmfao
I get them quite often
Too was watching a video of Pestily and when he’s looting he opens a chest quick turns a little and everything identifies itself slowly. How do you do this without having to click or interact each item
White dot appears when near item
Gotta do something with all that extra awake time
they gotta read this 🙏 🙏 🙏
Not that any of them are married. Unless it's like Breaking Bad and the wife doesnt know (for a while)
Guys anyone know best thing to buy/sell to jaegar to level him?
Can someone help me do the UN kills
melee weapons
you can also just buy some of his shit and just sell it back to him to level him up fast
@native inlet the cheapest way is triton rigs buying off flea market and selling to jaegar
How many y’all bought EOD is it worth it
its worth it if your enjoying the game as it helps alot
I started with standard and bought eod after playing for liek a month i was hooked
any new players need any help running quests i played 4 years just started this wipe late like 2 hours ago just let me know i run through quests fast
TROOOYYY
@civic grotto any chance you could help me with a customs run i dont know the map
What do u need help with
just some guidance im running blind. lost two raids now. doing good on scavs but im first quest newb
@flat skiff you get a squad yet?
anybody looking for customs or reserve?
@west sage i can get on in like 30 im pretty new though, i dont know reserve at all, but i know customs a little
you will just have to help me find extracts and stuff
i know game mechanics, not maps though
im down for customs if anyone else is
is it easy to do woods car extract with friend?
i got us to both press F at the same time on it, even though it showed 2 green icons for him (and just 1 for me), only I extracted
that happened to me also, you both need to be standing next to the car.
I dunno much about bridge extract but sounds like a bug
guys how do you reload a shotgun from the character menu
or do i have to fill the tube when i spawn in?
all i see is a barrel and i cant load it 😦
whats the easiest and fastest way to get level 10 im already lvl 8 and need help with that little extra boost
missions
Put the gun in uour stash, inspect it, then find the thing that says 6/6 or 0/5 or which ever and drag that into your stash off the gun
Then you should be able to load or unload it then put it back on the gun
Can someone help me finish the untar missions
should i sell moonshine or will it be more expensive later
how many i need?
Is the compass lost on death?
No
So kinda like the container & knife, you'll just keep it permanently?
Everytime you use the Scav Case it will use a Moonshine.
To build it you need 0
Yes.
Container, compass, armband and melee (except cultist knife) cant be looted
Tyvm.
can someone teach me how to play this game
Is it possible to do Spa Tour - Part 1 with the mossberg now or is it still bugged?
how do you turn on and off nightvision goggles. or flip down visor are they same key bind?
I think that would be N.
yeah it's N
This is true
can confirm ^
can i join any beginners assistance vc?
Anybody need one new to the game only like a level 3
Can you get a run-through status as a SCAV?
if you join a raid that's not 10 min in yet and you leave yes
Ah okay, thanks!
it really only happens on reserve and interchange i think
Never happend to me 🙂
Cause I usually loot before leaving anyway
@bold kernel
So, because you're admitting to killing this users you'll be blacklisted from LFG. Regardless of the reason or your paranoia, TKing is unacceptable.
What do I do with dogtags? Can I sell them?
^
@brazen quartz Need a few for Quests, some useful barter, but mostly sell
Alright.
Also, hi @ember pendant 🙂
Thanks.
Hey derpy
hi @ember pendant
Hey Cincinattus
Peavy being famous
Just took me quitting the game to get this type of love lol
@brazen quartz Any of your low level Dogtags use them for the trade for the MBSS bag
I cared before it was cool D:
Okay
they aren't really worth selling since they only sell for a couple hundred
Just like all famous artist, I'm not appreciated until I am gone
They are better to sell than most of the barters UNLESS you get the right level dog tags.
And the MBSS backpack isnt even all that good, considering how common berkut/daypack/scavBP are
With the one exception being the use of Ventilation shaft on labs.
Well, goodnight everyone. Tarkov is extremly fun, but also very terrifying.
Is what I found out today.
Lf someone to take me to jaeger
Yes. Yes it is.
Blacklists do not expire unless they're appealed.
And yet I wish I could play this game without the need of a duo 🤣
playing with a duo is just a lot more fun
what are military cables for?
barters, mostly
any good barters? or should i sell
raid backpack 🙂
what trader?
And 12 for Hideout apparently.
Prapor 4
Honestly, as usual. Just use this :Phttps://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Military_cable
Message @tall cipher
Is there a resource for which lasers/flashlights improve accuracy?
every single one. @median veldt
(Though Iam not sure about flashlights that dont have a laser as well)
Do they also improve ADS accuracy?
Can someone help me customize my AK74M? It's frustrating, can't seem to put things on.
I don't think the ones in the 25mm rings improve hipfire accuracy.
heres your answer try hipfireing without a laser at a wall then try with one
The most popular lasers are the LS321/Dbal from previous wipes. Not sure what all the cool kids are using now.
@ember pendant Still those cause IR light 😛
Dbal also had the cleanest flashlight (Less flooded out)
Literally going insane.
ppl are using flashlights alot more this wipe ive seen cus they so blinding
Hey guys i got a quick question
Shoot, Nitro
We might have a quick answer.
Whats an average amount of monet to have for lower level players
is it normal to go below your starting money
Yes.
Varies depending on the players skill level and how much they scav.
There isnt really a normal amount.
I have not but i havent gotten a whole lot
started at the 500,000 now got like 900,000
am i allowed to post a screenshot with an question?
Thats pretty decent @long cedar
Yea, Truffles.
@bold kernel Yes
im at 500k at lvl 33
What is considered having alot of money
I was doing a Factory scav run and I was wondering if I did happen to get shot after this would have I died?
like 10 mill
To me? 100mil+
@long cedar When you dont have to worry about spending it for your net raid.
That's the real answer there.
true derpy
@bold kernel While the countdown runs? Yes.
After the screen goes to black? no
Is there an average number that is considered above average amount lol
sorryi f thats a silly question
fuck bro i spent 700k for .45 vecter ammo and sold the vecter after i didnt like it
2100 a bullet
Yeah damn
Most people in this chat are sitting probably in the 1-5 mil range.
Im only level 3 havent gotten flea market yet
rather bring the ppsh with 70 rounder
also whats the best way to get more inventory space low level
You'll learn that money is a resource the. No reason to hold onto millions.
peavy if you so rich can i get a ledx for my hideout
Iam always way too low on my money
Sitting at 3mil, but that means jack shit, considering Iam standard account and need 3.5m for Stash lvl 2
Lol, I don't even have my hideout done.
nitro you dont have to buy cases justg do tasks
@long cedar Backpacks arent efficient, rigs are
Im at like 12 mil at level 20 after 75ish raids.
No position to give stuff away yet.
Ok cool just seeing how much people got
backpacks usually take the same space as they give you inside them @long cedar
Better to stack them inside each other
@ember pendant You are pretty rich 😛
Iam 19, with 3m
Cases help a lot too. The scav junkbox will be huge.
Well, I have a 68% survival rate. Not dying helps.... alot.
@long cedar Therapist lvl 2 for ~2mil
Oh ok
@ember pendant Iam also at about that, maybe 65%
Interchange + Kiba + Ultra keys ? idk.
My strength is higher than my endurance this wipe lol
bro how peavy you good?
Havent really played since the 4th, so.. meh
5k hours
ive been on every day but i have school tmrw irl
I've done 5 PMC raids in a row where I've died within 30 seconds and usually without moving a foot
like wtf are you supposed to do
Please dont say Factory
Coming prepared helps too. Having C5 + / Good ammo / Modded gun wins a lot of fights
i like interchange and somewhat shoreline rn besides shoreline play are babies
i seen to raid backpackers with altyns on and they ran from a mosin and buckshot shotgun guy
two*
I would too, shit.
Buckshot is scary tho
Those mosin and shotgun guys can kill me and net me nothing
If I die, they get my whole 1 mil + kit.
Iam gonna start my Shotgun wipe from now on xD
Just.., need to actually play ;_;
i missed a headshot cuz my pmc is weak
Klean is that you? Shotgun / DVL?
Shotgun + Magnum Buck
😛
But a sniper as side isnt the worst idea...
If you like IC though and want to learn to play that map like a pro.... watch my boy sharptooth
@ember pendant Dammit, stop giving me good ideas xD
someone argued with me saying its better to bring a svds to woods with the sthurmans scope on it with snb or 7n1 which ever he said cuz he said it pens lvl 5 , i said to brind dvl m80 and glock with ap6.3 cuz noone is bringing higher then class 4 armor
7N1 is bad against PMCs
Doesnt one shot class 4 anymore, so SNB is better for class 5 people
People definitely wear C5. I've been wearing and killing people in C5 since the 2nd day of the wipe.
SNB is great ammo though.
but still noone is bringing class 5 or higher to woods
Cap
I farmed a group of 3 not 2 hrs ago of killa armor and gen 4s
Guess Iam noone 😦
if i see an altyn kid on woods, he took the wrong turn to labs and ima clap him
U bet ur ass I’m bringing class 5 when doing the guide
wrong turn from
Wearing an altyn on woods isn't a great idea. Sound is way more important to track people down.
thats fine
That's why you likely won't see many C5 helms there.
that too
People usually bring armored rigs and class 4 helmets to woods
Cultists make no sound anyway, so.. sure
Well its nighttime... no shit lol
i bring comtac and 6b3t
Trying to fight them In general is a mistake
There loot is meh
ive never seen one im too good art dying to landmines
Their loot pool isn’t great for the cost/risk, and u need a thermal to accurately counter them
It’s scuffed
Eh, NVG is plenty fine if you are aware of em
idk about that. NVG does the trick
Anyone else leveling endurance mad quick this wipe?
just don't walk in the middle of them and get surrounded.
bro just listen for them duh
Endurance levels a lot faster after 20+ imo
I’m 30 points out of elite endurance already lmao. Getting levels at an insane rate
just feels like you start running enough to level it faster.
Fair enough
just carry a tank beattery in the epsilan lmao
That levels strength...
Thats strength, not endurance
Smh
That'll do nothing for endurance, and very little for strength since they lowered the level requirements for it.
i was talking about strenth
Then how is that relevant to the conversation
or the sas drives in a docs case

cobra who asked if it was relevent not me?
we talking about leveling you good my guy
???????????
?
We were talking about endurance
Chill you two.
cobra mad cuz bad
No reason to argue about that
weird flex but ok
Idk why ur getting aggressive
dont even know what defines someone as bad 😆
I mean if I can get to kappa in under a month that pretty much defines a good player if u ask me
Guys, if you want to argue, go into a DM with each other :/
Just banter we chillin
nah theres plenty of things that you think define a player as good
Still, do it in a DM please 😛
i dont want my dms clogged with fan boys
🍿
so im playing during the night and its barely visible is that normal?
Opposite of good. LOL
@modest oriole Its called Darkness, yes 🙂
well yea but i didnt know if the game was this dark
Is it that dark IRL?
@ember pendant Outside of cities, yes
In one, no 😛
Night vision even the cheap kind is better then nothing. Except the monocular, ur just wasting ur time with that thing
Can get a cheap class 3 helmet and slap night vision on it for under 50k
monocular isnt bad either imo, better picture than the cheap binocular
But thats preferences and stuff
hm thanks for the tip
is there some secret to finding spark plugs
i've raided the green store in interchange like six yimes
Filing cabinets
@midnight sky Tollboxes, Drawers
I doubt its actually 'green' though, besides the color 😛
Wait... they don't sell weed there?
nop
Anyone else notice a trend of rats in back of oli? Crouch walking kids with vectors waiting to take ur shins out with rip ammo
Water filters going up in price?
that's what just happened to me : (
all I wanted were spark plugs n nuts n bolts
peacefully walking the aisles
If so, then I bet your trend correlates with the increased price of filters or something.
Bro it’s so fucken annoying. Earlier I was 65 kilo’s waddling out and there’s a vector kid crouched in a corner. Like wtf how is that fun for u
Whats special about vectors?
Fat boys make more noise. Possible he heard you first and just posted up.
Fire rate and ammo type
They shoot stupid fast, at low recoil, with decent ammo.
With little to no modding needed.
Rip ammo if u leg meta there’s no chance to fight back
Enemy just folds over
It’s braindead
I mean it gives you more of a shot of fighting back than getting facetapped by 7n31 (typically)
I guesss
3 bullets TTK still give a chance of quickly tapping them
Unless they’re ratting and u don’t expect it
Then the reaction isn’t that reasonable
Realistically u can’t react fast enough to a vector that’s aim punching ur legs with ammo that will black it out in 3 hits, then have a chance to kill u with every single shot that registers on said blacked limbs
It’s a lost cause at that point
Only way to beat a vector is by backing up if possible and repositioning HARD
That's why shoulder peaking and running between cover while on PKs is such a popular among the better streamers.
I guess yeah but u can’t shoulder peak the entirety of oli realistically
Ever see one of them take dorms late and run between rooms 10-20 times trying to get intel?
I’m talking about back of oli specifically. I’ve yet to have any issue whatsoever on any other map
You can shoulder peak to clear areas. There is a tactical way to go through the area.
Whats oli short for?
oli
It’s just oli
nothing
Lmao
Oh, I haven't done much of that map yet
oh yeah
that thing across from ikea
I saw it one the maps
Its the name of the shop shrug
yeah other side of the map
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OBI_(retail_chain)
What OLI is ripping off in game.
OBI GmbH & Co. Deutschland KG is a German multinational home improvement supplies retailing company. It is headquartered in Wermelskirchen and operates 668 stores in Europe, of which 351 are in Germany.
There’s idea, oli and goshan
yup
anybody know how to get to jaegers camp?
there are a lot of YT tutorials and guides online
if you are really struggling hop into the sherpa hub and ppl will take you
i can in like 20 mins if you cant find anyone
Looking for an updated weapons guide. I dont know what weapons are worth picking up or not.
Circled it for you.
thanks bro
For selling or using?
its really preference for using
some ppl love the VEPR hunter and say only use it but i cant use it for shit
@ember pendant @manic horizon Using yeah, I get there's a preference but surely there are just weapons that are dog shit vs worth picking up ya know.
its not really the weapons its more the ammo you use
like i love using the SVD and use it almost every raid
3 minutes in and I already hate this game
its tough
Joined a raid and murdered immediately
by my own team, like wtf, just to farm me for my gear
don't use the in-game LFG
if you found them in the LFG you can report and if you have proof they will be banned from the server
then report them
they will be banned from this server permanently
incorrect
really
nope
they do get banned from LFG
oh not the rest of the server
nope
Well I already want my money back, this game is complete shit if I am forced to play with people rather than venturing out on my own.
you dont have to play with people
and i would never play with randoms off of the in game LFG
Well this is a relief I think I launched solo
you see how theres a button that says ready when you dont have ppl in your group its theres when you have ppl in the group too and its the same
Any other gun suggestions for beginners? I'm only level 15 and starting to see the difference in guns. I have a budget build for an AK-74M but man so much kick and not much power.
Thanks.
AK's do have a lot of base recoil
MP5's are cheap, or an SKS is really good for a cheap build
both need no mods really
Mm got ya
SKS has good ammo from prapor, not the best but it's the best you can buy from traders for a while
Ty
Hi! So I’ve tried sending requests for a Sherpa on the website, but I get no response and it just says “CREATED”. How can I get in contact with someone that can help?
do you guys think its better to watch a video guide or play with someone thats experienced to learn how to play the game?
Both tbh.
Video guides to give you the basic idea, then load into an offline mission to practice.
That way when being taught you arent such dead weight, know the basics and will learn more.
ok thats what i figured that its more efficient doing both. i just got the game today and im just getting demolished
i was really unsure but i was playing night maps and i didnt know if it was supposed to be pitch black or its my settings
yeah, you die a lot for sure
what's helpful for new people is to play offline and learn the map and exits
you get better as you learn where the spawns are and where to expect people coming/going from. I still have trouble remembering where other people spawn, but on most maps I know exactly where I'm at
well until they updated woods, and the new stuff in customs
yea like most times im really slow while like moving cuz i dont wanna get shot in the back
but yeah low level, you gotta be sneaky sneaky
and listen for stuff, you can kill scavs pretty easy, but a geared player is a pain
yea i freaked out cuz i know damn well i shot this guy 4 times pretty close range and i got 2 tapped and i died
i was guessing he was geared to high hell
yeah, you gotta understand the ammo penetration, and the armor mechanics
The game is rough when your new, especially after people have already had weeks to gear up.
If it helps, the game gets so much better at level 10 when you get access to the auction house.
Also chin up, anyone can be good at Tarkov as game knowledge is the most important thing.
Hang in there and keep playing, you will become a chad eventually.
which probably changed, I haven't played in about a year but just picked it back up
that guide posted earlier is useful
im new anyone wana play customs?
yo im down XD
alright i only have one friend that plays hes doin homework
You sure he isnt eating crayons?
friend me
XD heyyyyy the purple one is good
yea itll take me a sec trying to connect my earbuds
ok
Any new players need some help? Questing? Weapon modding? inventory mangement? Questions in general? Just DM me.
i need to get used to customs so i have a map out of it on my ipad next to me
will that help?
Its essential imo lol
The EFT wiki has decent maps for all the missions also
Customs is a hard map to learn on though
People act like its the beginner map due to the quests, but its filled with hardcore pvo seeking chads 24/7
Pvp*
customs is my favorite
and interchange next
I want to like factory, but it's so quick and fast
Interchange best map
shoreline probably
but this is 1 year + old information @delicate cave probably knows better
yesterday I heard shoreline and interchange got geared up players
Woods maybe, depends if you like trees,getting lost and sniped from 50km away
They do ghost but the maps are so big you can try and avoid them and still get great loot
On shoreline the chads run to the resort, and interchange they go for the center to the techstores/KIBA and to hunt Killa.
Be a bro and turn the power on for them and they wont even come outside xD
why do streamers always buy doc case so early? for what exactly is it usefull to spend so much money on?
shoreline and interchange would be your worst option to learn the game
Its super handy to store keys and several other tech related items
customs always was and probably always will be the best map for learning the game
I strongly disagree, as someone who was a new player very recently, and still kind of am
Its a pvp and camp fest
Noone goes to customs to loot, they go in to fight, hunt noobs and get into high tier fights at dorms
How does one go about finding a friendly mentor to lean on a bit?
customs is horrible for new players, its too chokepointy and linear. Especially with nowadays shitty spawns. The only reason people say "learn customs first" is because most early quests are on customs
Shoreline/interchange atleast you have room to move and have a good chance of getting some loot and extracting.
Customs your going to get camped, hunted down by a squad or simply gunned down by chads.
@knotty dock do you know about stashes and crackhouse?
in shoreline and interchange you die the moment you dont pay 100% attention. its filled with rats who will wait for you for hours and with chads who will try to fuck you up with nadespams and altyns
since playing the maps only makes sense when you go to places like rasmussen
Methinks you are too much of a chad Clit to know the pains if a noob
Getting out with a single olt and making 50k roubles is a good raid
honestly try and find a good tarkov community. I've tried requesting sherpas 4 times as a new player this year and haven't even been messaged. I've found Klean's server way more helpful than here "The Janitors Closet"
Any new players need some help? Questing? Weapon modding? inventory mangement? Questions in general? Just DM me.
@proper sandal entire staff thing on this server is terrible
The amount of time it takes for any reaction from mods feels like I'm messaging EA support lmao
oof sorry to that player scav who was laying down on interchange extract
i was scared
i got told to check discord age to see if its a new act if i ever team with somebody how do i do that
in game messanger
to me is the easiest way
I bought EFT yesterday. My biggest hurdle is extracting, since I dont even know where I am and where to go.
i heard there is a compass but do I need to buy it ?
you get compass as a quest reward around lvl 5 from prapor
im on for the night and willing to take a couple new people with me if any one would like extra help
Is it safe or lost on death ?
safe, its like your melee weapon and armband
Great
@zinc fiber how does that work where do i look
Also, how do I check weapon mods ? Do I need a workbench in my hideout to see available mods ?
if you team with someone, in the game there is a messanger you can see in your bottom right hand corner. when you open it there is friend option wher you can add people through in game name and find them quicker and easier in lobbies that you match up with .
make a work bench in hideout then get to lvl ten to reach the linked search option.
👍 understood
how do i cancel drinking animation ??
left click
welcome
Any new players need some help? Questing? Weapon modding? inventory mangement? Questions in general? Just DM me.
whats a good level2trader weapon to run as a default setup?
without spending tooo much
depends what you doing
but a good cheap wappen tat can kill is a addar
cheap to mod (put scope and mussel on ) and shoots good ammo
sniper sv98
and akms for full auto
I'm shooting a guy 60m away with m61 I got him about 3 times then he suddenly 180s and headshot sprays me with an smg headshot with a luger
round
but has a big kick
maybe you hit arms only
wtf about the 180 headshot with an smg
can happens i use mp5 and mpx alot i somtimes get 100meter + headshots
more luck then skil but stil
where you laying down
no I shot then once it turned around I ducked behind a counter
but i must've ducked into shot
was it a raider, or?
some douyu streamer
couldn't find his stream though
it was at spawn. I ran straight up to oli then went there as I heard people fighting at the entrance. Then he ran up I shot him a few times then he just turned around and knew exactly where I was and headshotted me with his smg spray from 70m+
Did you have a suppressor?
Noises really give your position away. Especially gunfire.
also the amount of length some people go to camp is insane in this game
I killed 2 players thought that was it since it lasted 5 mins and I was looting at d2. All done I enter d2 and his friend was just sitting behind the door and got me from behind
Patience pays off :)
So I know people on youtube recommend to go into a location in offline mode, like factory and just do live target practice, but what are some other good ways to get a good start?
Sad reality is that it's boring as fuck, but at the end of the day they're the one scurrying off with all the loot.
unless he wasn't in their team
dw these campers get bad karma often, sometimes they still get domed after camping 25 minutes
Learn the maps and play using your scav run to experience actual gameplay without risking gear
Nothing sweeter than killing an exit camper with 5m left on the raid. Sucker probably spent the entire raid there just to get smacked.
all 6 of these insurance returns are nothing but m9s
What Sitrax said, running Scav between PMCs on new maps is a great way to learn it. Together with Offline, too.
hm for the first while basically do a bunch of scav runs and learn the maps I want to raid before I do actual PMC runs?
That's what I did. I ran my usual map(s) on PMC, and whenever my Scav was up I played the new one I wanted to learn.
i've only tried out factory, shoreline, and woods
As a new player ( pre lvl 10 ) you should 80/scav/20pmc
i don't think i'll play woods much b/c i can only get a stable 60-65fps on it
After level 10 start upping pmc equal w/ gear
shoreline is a vibe and factory is just loot
Scav runs have a cooldown so you do just want to do them when you're new whenever they're up. You probably should do a few PMC runs if only to learn about the start of the game, health system, and getting over gear fear.
or you can buy 20 m9a3s like the chads
Ugh, I hate Shoreline. Interchange gang.
shoreline is the best imo
I hate it cause there's so many weird quest things on it.
I must be crazy, but I swear all the "Kill X Scavs while running the Mak n' Cheese combo" are on Shoreline
i probably like shoreline alot because the way its laid out is the way i envisioned tarkov before buying it
nice and open, some trees for cover but not too many, some good areas for loot
Really? I've only ever had good loot at the resort.
any place with houses has good loot
My experience with shoreline is either running up against other big boys in Resort, or just getting sniped literally anywhere else.
I think I might just be spoiled form the two thousand tech spawns in Interchange and KIBA tbh.
generally when i go to resort it's pretty dead
Bruh really?
yeah
Jesus
few scavs in the building but there's never anyone outside
I legit cannot go 2 seconds without hearing people shooting/'nading there
Much like Dorms on Customs lol
I feel like everyone goes there
It's the reason why I have like 10 Quests from Shoreline lol, they're all in the resort
Whats going to be the easiest way to kill sanitar? Really need jaeger level 3 to get my water collector 3 and booze generator up
So if you die during a raid you still get all the experience you gained or do you have to extract to keep exp?
pretty sure you get xp but it's like halved
Okay thanks.
Is Prepare for escape bundle good?
How does insurance work? You only get stuff back if a player doesn't loot it right?
right.
Insurance returns your item if it's still on the map at the end of the game
^ in addition to the question, what if a player discards from your inv?
