youre totally right. but thats usually not why ppl message me.
It can, you need the right muzzle device though. The stock one doesn't take a suppressor
ooh okay, sorry still really struggling to figure stuff out
Do a linked search on the M1A barrels, length doesn't matter, then check the muzzle devices and do linked searches on them. Some of the suppressors attach directly.
is a linked search flea market?
ty ty!
Right click on an item, it's in there. Shows all the other items that attach to it.
Sometimes items might not be available as they are needed for gunsmith tasks so sell out quickly, check barters then, people are lazy and often ignore that.
Quite a few of the gunsmith specific items can be acquired through trader barters for cheap (10-30k) but sell immediately on the flea market for 100k or more.
Is it worth trading a 216 West Wing key for a Key with Tape?
thank you @rapid trench
are these good stats for an m1a? i tried to make like, the best m1 i could but these dont seem that crazy?
whats ur budget
im just fucking around with making a good gun in the presets thing and tried to make the best i could
but it doesnt seem that crazy
trying to make the best m1a for later when im rich
well, richer
yeah tryin to figure out how haha
ill show u my build after my raid
okay ๐ฎ
what kind of settings should i be running?
stock or modified some how? running around interchange is just so fucking dark and end up walking up to a scav and being 1 shot
anyone have a pm scav
oh i got the recoil down to 80 with a different silencer
use lantac dragon
Where can I find scavs on Customs?
Rsass stock on the M1A gets recoil the lowest
@final hill Old gas, new gas, dorms, ruaf roadblock, red warehouse, construction side, checkout
god what i would do for a flash drive that is FIR
Wait till late in the raid too
craft
ha assuming im far enough along in the game to have ability to craft
Intel level 3 craft, it's pretty expensive to get there
xd
Besides bitcoin farm and solar, that's one of the last upgrades
kekw
Check the mechanic barter for the M1A RSASS, that's pretty close to meta, blast mitigation device and lantac dragon gives BIS recoil.
Hey everyone, welcome to the channel for another Escape From Tarkov video, this time going over my Top 3 M1A Builds.
The M1A is an amazing weapon, and in the right hands it can get the job done in almost any situation. It's accurate, it's powerful and it has a lot of mod options, but, it's also heavy and has a lot of kick without a good setup....
All three variations there can be bartered for somewhat cheaply.
yeah the one i have right now is 60 recoil and nearly 300k T_T
it will be cheaper once u get high levle traders @final glade
yeah my traders are very low, im struggling to survive raids at all
Is Punisher part 4 still bugged?
I remember that someone told me you don't need to wear scav vest for it to count or something
Yep, only need the balaclava. Although some have said you just need a face mask.
Is the atlyn not good because you cant use headphones with them, like the kiver?
or is the atlyn still good and fine
The sound loss makes it harder, but it's one of thr strongest helmets and will save you getting head, eyes so much
gotcha. Maybe thats one to use when i run with friends then not solo.... i really like to be able to hear
Also got my first in raid slick ever. Im torn on selling it for 300k now or using it lol. ive never used level 6 armor before
Sell it, easy enough to buy it back later when you will use it more effectively
Hex plate carrier, the other level 6 vest can be bartered for about 200k at ragman 3 which isn't too hard.
oh really? I didnt know that. Ill sell it then yea and if i get a wild hair i can always get a hex plate then for a lil cheaper yea
Whats your go-to chad loadout? You like the hex grid then? Ive been watching summit a lot and he likes the exfil helmet with a mask and the hex grid as well
If I craft something it counts as found in raid right?
yes
Sweeeeet
Exfil or fast Mt, same thing
Caiman is nice alternative but the visor is a bit rubbish
okay
those are all level 4 helmets then right? So for a helmet its not really worth to go with the level 5 or 6 then?
The level 5 and 6 helmets have big drawbacks, either poor visibility for the maska (killa helmet) and no headphones and dulled sound.
Insane armour for the head though, and full covering so no sneak earhole or jaw shots
Anyone know the current maths on BTC farm? Is keeping the gfx cards for 800k worth it or should I sell everything past the first?
The first 10 cards cuts down the time the most
Sell the FIR cards you find, buy gfx off the market with crafting/raid/BTC profits.
Keep 3 FIR for the mechanic quest
kk that's what I was wondering. I've been rushing idea non stop farming them and lions recently since the spawns there are worth so much
is farming pt 4 required for kappa?
Theres lion spawns in idea?
A short video to help people find bronze lions in interchange that doesn't require keys

damn.... i really need to learn interchange better
super good for money runs right now especially with propane being 40k/psu being 80k
Is that a well known pair of spawns? Like are you fighting over them a lot or not really?
It is. Check the wiki though, there is a list of the quests not needed, farming is part of the main chain that leads to others so it will be required.
gotcha ty
Not super contested but can be busy as the Idea computer room is popular
true good point. Thanks man! I only run with some friends on interchange and they i guess dont know about that spawn, never heard of it
Cats, lions, horses, clocks, all spawn around the bed display areas in idea.
ok
right now the gfx card spawn and tetriz spawn is super contested lol
oh i bet. so much money
i've been barely avoiding the other teams on my pistol runs
Check on, under and beside beds, side tables, in the drawers, cupboards near them.
just a grab n dash sometimes cant even check for lion ๐ฆ
That video above explains them well
guy i have a question wich needle on the compass is the one that shows the direction youre looking at
?
the red one
okay thanks
yh, told him that it is north so he knows where to start from and the numbers on the bottom right are the numeric angles
The compass heading shows up in the corner of the screen, or maybe middle top/bottom, I don't use it.
That's it. Bottom Right
ahh ok ok right.
can you put a sight on the ks-25m shotgun?
*ks-23? then no
oh dang im bad at iron sights
doesnt matter really it is a close range gun
@barren trellis well it's a shotgun...
aim for legs with shrapnel 10
10 over 25?
yh
ah okay thank you.
im at the point now im just doing suicide runs to interchange with a pistol or shotgun. checking as many computers as i can in search for the holy grail flash drive.
anything that takes you were you want to be
after i do a loop if i dont find it (which they are god awful rare) than i go pvp or die to scavs hiding in the dark.
if i do find it i try to extract. die to scavs hiding in the dark
either way. cheap runs
can someone explain if this is just terrible RNG or something?
shot a player scav in the head, no helmet, heard him yell in pain from the hit... guys carries on playing like nothing happened and beats me in firefight after take 4 or 5 more body shots?
could be desync, you may have hit shoulders or chest
maybe... bummed me out ๐
Quick Reference Sheet [Up To Date]
I stream: ,https://www.twitch.tv/nofoodaftermidnight
Effectiveness,Est. Avg. Shots Stopped By Armor Before Killing
0,Pointless,20+,Can't penetrate in any reasonable amount of hits
1,It's Po...
garbage
it seems good against class 4?
it CAN penetrate level 4, but not reliably
i dont know that info exactly
@hushed anchor the chart im looking at says it will NOT reliably penetrate level 4
Luck i guess
BP is a straight upgrade to PS, and currently pretty cheap on the flea market
fragment is to break the bullet up on impact and cause more damage, the hollow points like RIP and Quakemaker are designed to and so have a high (100% I think) chance to do this
Fragmenting does 50% bonus damage
anyone wanna help me do the Jeager convoy quest real quick, I dont know my way around woods at all
EU?
Would that 'more damage' be bleed or straight up more damage
NA
Oh you described it, 50%
flat damage, the ammo info says about the bleed chance
the high fragmenting ammo tends to have higher bleed chance too anyway
9mm RIP rounds have 100% fragment chance, 30% light bleed and 10% heavy per round
Legmeta is still alive
But wouldnt one prefer to use ammo with damage and high pen
9mm rip with lega meta is pretty dirt nasty
The higher levels a round penetrates, the lower flesh damage it does generally
thats the other side of the coin, you either pen armour/helmet and kill them. Or shoot high damage rounds into unprotected parts
most high pen rounds need 2-3 shots to the chest to kill. High damage rounds need a 4-5 to the legs/arms to kill
lets take the 9mm rounds as an example, RIP does 102 damage per shot, but has 2 pen.
2 pen is stopped by level 1 armour, I am not sure there is any level 1 armour, I think the lowest is 2.
440/102 is 5 shots to kill, hitting the legs/arms. As blacked out limbs doesn't kill, only a blacked chest/head (as long as it's not a bleed).
^ all valid if you want to use as little ammo to get kills as possible
I got 2 1 taps with pistol. I went to save the clip with shadowplay and my screen went black
can still hear myself move and shoot
but can't see shit
happened to anyone before?
sounds like a graphical bug, quit the gam and hope you can reconnect?
The other end of 9mm is AP 6.3 and 7N31 rounds. 6.3 has 30 pen but only 52 damage, which will reliably beat level 3 armour, that's most helmets till min/late game and nearly all face shields besides altyn/maska. But the 52 damage needs 2 shots through chest armour to kill. Or 440/52 is 9 shots to the legs to kill.
7N31 has 39 pen, this beats level 4 armour reliably, but also has 52 damage, again 2 chest shots and 9 leg/arms.
where can i find decent build guides? didnt find any good ones on yt
probably will have 2 mins by the time i join
Builds are changing constantly, jdog does good ones, I linked a M1A build guide above
cheers
So if you shoot their legs and they are blacked out, how do you get a kill after that?
you can still kill them with leg shots, just takes more ammo
Oh I see
so find a spot where you have a good angle on legs... rats get rich
and dont let anyone tell you exit camping is not a valid tactic ๐ ๐
people hate the campers but it works
I've killed a few and had fights around there when I've arrived at the same time or JUST before another player.
oh yeah, i wouldnt make it a vocation, but if youre new and have no gear, i dont blame you
๐
go hunting, rat life is good, learn the maps, learn the good loot, player routes and how to avoid, or trap them
^
always check jackets and filing cabinets
had a fat boy escape by exfil on a interchange exit just... he took 3 ap/20 gut shots like an absolute champ
if you camp that bush by emercom you are evil and I don't like you
but to each their own
Is there no way to get ap sx rounds for mp7 other than find in raid?
nah railway has a couple nice little spots
currently thats it
also, i like to insure my gear, get one kill, then swap my gear for the dead players entirely, good way to remove that gear fear when its a free run
it's made the Mp7 a bit rubbish, as the 9mm and .45 vector are now both available so cheap
yeah
FMJ SX is ok
I killed a guy with the mp7 so i was just kinda looking around seeing what was available for it. Ill prolly just sell it then.
oh
actually, mechanic level 4 still sells AP SX I think
Do you think its worth to hold onto it, or just sell and upgrade to a vector or ump45
oh the 45ap isnt as good pen as i thought it was
That vector is crazy though
it's still a viable gun, but there isnt much reason to hold on to it, bc they're sold on the flea market constantly
ok gotcha
guys when i get quests from peacekeeper ?
oh dang skier buys stock mp7 for 75k? wow ima sell that and grab a vector then
fa sure
anyone know shoreline I got a key for 313 east wing
After friend from the west part 2 @arctic hatch quest from skier
good shoreline map
East 313 is ok, connects to 314 so you only need 1 of those
Ledx spawn in there too so probably worth a bit to sell
does gluhar usually hide somewhere near the station?
I killed all his goons but couldn't find him anywhere
anyone know a high flashdrive spawn spot?
going to rope if I can't find 1 more...been looking for them all night and haven't found any
I have found quite a few in customs office
but not sure if they have an increased rate or if I just got lucky :p
i've died 6 times so far because every fuckin gun is set to single fire by default ffs
is the RR limited use now?
tips for woods scavs?
ambushing people is best as a low geared scav
I think they mean killing scavs
the town top right usually has alot of them and if you set yourself on the hill they run out on the road ez kills
go sniper mountain
kill the sniper and use his sniper to kill scavs in sawmill if they are there
otherwise they spawn near the new medical loot area they added near RUAF roadblock, near checkpoint, and scav house
I got time to run one if someone needs help with a questy
best .366 tkm ammo?
366 ap
For wet job part 1, how do i get a suppressor on the ADAR?
What should you do with dog tags
keep em so you can hand them in for a quest

Could somebody help me with Scav kills on customs?
Is there any way around the barricade on 3rd floor of west wing in resort?
or do you have to go under
guys I need help extracting from woods
if someone can come vc and I can do sharescreen
Which room are you?
I think I know where I am on the map
I'm near the boat
and I should go to un roadblock
right?
@short hare your on the bottom to the left of lumber yard
i think ?
yeah you are
is it better to wait till there's 10 mins to go or go now?
Is there a boat in the middle of that lake?
I don't want to die
@short hare i mean, you can be idk if it'll be 'safer'
just hug the water all the way around
mannnn after 20 woods matches I finally get a pmc kill with good loot
then I die to 2 players 
snipe more...
@short hare have you considered adjusting your settings to get a more crisp picture?
@short hare these are my postfx settings
@short hare luma and adaptive sharpening can make your picture quite a bit more sharp and clear
change the muzzle brake for KAC comp, then search linked for the suppressors, thats one of the cheapest ones to buy and stil lgood
KAC comp, thank you !
I kept doing link search couldnt get any muzzle attachments to come up for some reason
any tips i should know before playing the game?
black or FDE, both work, 28k ish
Customs is rough, lots of early quests there but also players chasing each other down from spawn
Try OFFLINE on factory with an SKS and PS ammo and scavs on for aim training
if you die in offline it doesnt matter
thank you!
Focus on learning more about the game, not necessarily getting good at the game. This game is more game knowledge than it is shooting players.
^
Ok. Is it difficult to get used to recoil of weapons etc?
Other option is surefire warcomp and the monster, costs about 30k all in
no, but it's way different than youre used to @wise rampart
@wise rampart Guns dont do damage, bullets do so here's a bullet guide https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Pp8tKScb0jB66cOCJSAlNn-iKERMXd9FVkSmSq83qn8/edit

1,It's Po...
Dont try to memorize that now, but glance at it occasionally
this is also good
Yeah, don't worry about modding weapons early on, SKS on semi auto or PP19 with 9mm PST GZH are both effective
This is a bit out of date now
5.56 changes, 7.62 and 9mm changed in places too
mote linked it above
Not quite. SKS with good ammo or PP19 with ammo at the legs is good. SKS is not good without good ammo due to low fire rate, especially for a newbie.
that's google docs tho
I want a picture like the one I sent so I can have it open on one of my monitors while buying ammo
you cant open a google doc on a second monitor like a picture?
but it looks so weird
Just look at the green-red areas... 6 is most reliable penetration, 0 the worst
also it doesn't fit the whole thing I would need to scroll down to see all the ammo types
The high pen ammo is easy to remember
@short hare i dont see how this is a worse option... but if yo uhave a gun, then all you need to do is read the bullets in that caliber, not the whole damn chart
how likely is it ffor someone to take d2 extract?
better but still not updated for 12.9
Probably the highest extract point on reserve.
so if i wait for someone to turn on the power im good
12.9 had M62 nerfed, 9x19 pen buffed, .45 buffed
highly likely
ok good thing i have food
Is D2 multi-use?
thats it
yo uhave to turn the power on for it though
people LOVE camping the route down to it
^
so many hideyholes and easy to hear anyone coming as it loops back on itself so you can hear people crouch walking above
watch some of pestily's videos with reserve runs, he uses D2 a fair amount and you can see the corners and spots he checks for campers
i forgot to so im hopin some1 else will
also the final door takes about 20-30s to open enough to extract and its LOUD
yeah
damn nvm
the switch is near the heli, then the extact is in the bunkers over near the barracks
Anyone can assist lvl 4 on Customs or something. Asia server
15 mins left fucj
train is good
no one else is coming i reckon
will i just run over and turn it on
I turn bunker hermetic on and run back to it all the time safely
toots when it arrives, then twice 1min before it leaves, the once more when it leaves
hermetic is 7mins from pushing the button to the door closing so don't hang about, edited
stays for 7 minutes
does the power turn on instantly?
nah, have to flip the switch by control room
i know but when u do
yeah there is no timer
so you flip it, someone camping by D2 could pull the door lever there and then extract when it opens
only cuz i forgot too and im too scared to go bacck
fuck it putting on the big boy pants leggo
get on with it
whats time left?
also, raiders like to chill out down there, and can spawn and rush in when someone turns the power on
raider
told ya
didnt even have time to react just boom
didnt have a whole lot anyways so its all good : )
they are fast, always check corners and rooms before rushing in, at least just a peek
learning ๐
Jiggle peaking?
Is there a guide on how to shoot ironsight weapons?
GET JIGGLY
aim at top of sight post, click button
I always seem to mess up lining up my iron sight shots, especially at long range, but with scopes/reflex sights im fine
some irons are better than others
Mosin and sks just ruin me
The guide is, ads, put crosshair on head, click, = Head,eyes
set fov lower, it's vertical scaling rather than horizontal
let me try out that strat then
try 59 FOV
Yesterday I had a scav with a shotgun run a circle around me as I missed all my shots then got head,eyes
seems to work for most, I improved a load going from 75 (MAX FOV MASTER RACE) to 59
Does scav level affect their loadout?
nope
Aye ive finally crossed over finishing over 100 quests in a wipe. Up to 102 now, over halfway to kappa!
Aight
loadouts are random, they have a 'scav pool' that it pulls from
Is 0.18 a good ads sens?
Some things will never be in there, pretty much anything for sale from PK/Mechanic. Prapor, Jager, Skier are the pools
My scav got me a 50k fal
You'll never get a scav with an M4 or Vector. but will get FAL, Adar, all AK variants, apart from AK101.
VERY RARELY you'll see the legendary FLIR/SV-98 scav
Ive had the thermal scav once
^?
they probably found that M700, it's not a scav weapon
He loaded the scav with that weapon
@limber notch have a play around on factory offline and change it, find what works for you
I was looking at the loading screen
interesting, that's a rare one too.
I missed a bunch of shots on 0.35 so Im lowering it
Where do i enable the fps counter in the top right im seeing on streams?
Sensitivity is flexible, depending on what you are comfortable with
console "fps 1" all lower case
^
ah ok thanks
console is "`" key
If you have 60% kb its fn esc
mine is left of 1, your's might be next to Z or over by P or L
its the button i keep fat fingering tryna hit tab haha
would someone link me their go to woods map for 12.9? (If that is already available)? Thanks. ๐
ah good call, i forgot i can do that @rapid trench
there might be a newer version, this is pretty good, shows stashes too
wiki has lots of good maps including that one
pick the area and then scroll down
It also had the old map
And I lost like some hours going in circles on the old map
The ingame map you can buy from therapist is the old one, doesn't have the expansion from 12.9 ๐
Hahahaha
By far the most fun ive had in eft is meeting a friendly pmc
gotta be careful
We went on a trip past dorm together, I initally left him but he followed me
he gonna stab you
Then a team of 2 rolled up on us and I charged them, I hope he got away

big dick energy there
I dealt 50 dmg xD
What pistol and ammo should I be trying for the 3 pmc kills with pistol
factory, any of the 9mm, P223, Grach, M9, ammo PST GZH, bring an extra mag or two, aim for the face
I'll probably be waiting for level 10 (5k exp left) to buy one from market
m9 is about 14k if u buy dollars
good way to level PK early, buy M9A1s from him
Okay I'll SS this and check at this info again later
I know the Grach and ammo
but don't remember the p223
okay stupid question but now how do i turn off the fps counter ๐คฃ
yep
anyone else getting kicked for background error?
ahhh ok ok got it. thanks
m9 is a pretty good pistol ngl, I point blanked some guy in 2/3 shots
Saw some players use it
Where can I find these maps ?
I was minding my business looting caches and I heard him run onto me then his buddy camped a corner
Click on the map you need map of, then scroll down to see the map varieties
thx
thankss
I only use official interchange map since I have not found a good alternative. I have a good customs and reserve map
I need to do couple of offline maps on interchange
it still feels like labyrinth
inside
Yeah because that exact map confuses me even more
I need to run around see the floors and coordinate
either way you run out, the front of the building or the back, go to the far side and turn right, that'll take you to the extract
Whats this?
Oh Come on, killed an omega geared Player and then Disconnected. And now im stuck in the reconnect screen for 5 minutes
middle of interchange
Oh. I use official map. Have not gone mid yet
The map from the traders?
any experienced players NA down to help a new player out?
hey can somebody help me here with 2 items i need from dealers in order to finish a quest but my lvl is too low for the dealers to lvl up (lvl19)
would be for Gunsmith - Part 7
Magpul M-LOK 4.1 inch guide
SGA stock for M870
No map from wiki, the one which gives pictures
The pictures are amazing for caches
agreed
you dont need to be in a hurry to complete those... they're just money sinks
the maps you buy from therapist are pretty trash
@rare nymph Just wait til you level up more
Not those. The one from wiki. I used to do woods and used therapist map. I quit for 6 months
Yeah, was not a good starting experience
not only does it take inventory space
but you lose it if you die with it on you
I mean, I like that you can put annotations on it
but it would be golden if you character marker was on it
wait you can annotate the in game map?
the SGA stock you can barter for
yeah, you can mark it
Then it would be actually useful xD
maybe no annoate
I just tested it on an offline, just to see how it worked
and promptly sold it to fence afterwards
with lvl 20 ๐ฆ im looking to finish this and the next gunsmith quest to reach lvl 20 to unlock therapist 3 and mechanic 2
Skier needs armour FIR, does it have to be specific armour?
I mean for a realistic take on it, it doesnt even have to be the character marker on the map
He called it white shit or something
it could be the players finger
yep, mechanic 2
Yeah, thats the white armor, you can see it in the wiki
The tier 2?
I think it says TAR on it
3m TAR armour, you can craft it now
3m is the white
I think ive seen it before
tarbank
ye
youve been able to craft it since at least last wipe
yep
can anyone help me finish delivery from the past, just need factory backup
Yeah ive seen it. I think ill try kill a scav with it
Yup, just checked wiki
I usually find that armor on scavs
Have not played factory or woods much at all
Hi i havnt played in a long time, but i was lvl 10 PMC, now i log in after 1.5yrs and my hideout and character lvl are lvl 1? why did it reset me
Wipes
it resets every so often
but the developers are working on a "no reset" branch of the game too
so even if your lvl 50 PMC it will reset you?
for now, yes
@rare nymph did you find the barter?
the game is still in development
level 2 mechanic is level 20 for you
also all your loot will dis-appear?
yep
wow
yep - its the best part of the game for a lot of players, gives everyone a fresh reset
everyones does
any europeans currently having trouble with the game? Multiple disconnects, servers not reachable
its a bummer if you're not expecting it, but its a chance to try new things again!
like I said, eventually there should be a persistent account that wont reset
we dont have it yet
yeah i cant transfer items from inventory to stash, getting an error
and then disconnect
servers have just packed in
as mentioned way above im only lvl 19 and mechanic2 needs lvl 20 sadly
What are beginner assistence channels?
Is it worth right now saving moonshine for the barters if youre still trying to upgrade hideout and spending money? Kinda torn on holding onto them or just selling them for 185k each, thats a lot every 2 1/2 hours
you are in it
Voice channels, my bad
They are a channel for begginers to ask questions, maybe
there are the voice channels that can be used for voice chats/raids if needed
screen shares etc
Do you share screen and players see how u play and help?
you can, yeah
just gotta coordinate with others
Yeah I did that with someone yesterday, probably my 2 best ever raids but I failed both
nice
moonshine is pretty static at 180k, +/-5k, worth selling it now for the money, you can use that
lol, at the edit
rebuy moonshine later for trades
ok thats what i was leaning towards. Since gas is so expensive now im really trying to get up my solar power.
Yeah, I killed a juicy pmc but died when regening stam. Then in 2nd got gpu and died
as long as you get it in your alpha you good
I couldnt shoot becuase escelator rails blocked my gun
shadow, did you buy eod yesterday?
yes...
The stash space alone would have made me fail no nut novembre if it was novembre
lol
es detected ๐
the stash space and gamma container is nuts.
I been thinking though, if i get kappa this wipe im gonna get a 2nd account, standard account and try to get kappa with that too see how far i go. smaller stash and only 4-slot container
I didnt realise till after upgrade but small stash was actually very stressful
Just wait til you fill up the max stash ๐คฃ
for real!
sea shanties factory run lets fucking go
I did feel lost in regards to whats the point of money now since my goal had been to upgrade stash.
yeah, true
yeah EoD is great
that's why i havent done EoD - i like having more goals
Containers, bro!
saved 25m roubles bro
But then I realised that I still need gear n stuff. I got EOD also becuase saving time is rly good for me due to uni n stuff
now aim for getting weapons cases and junk boxes
yeah, you could always do crazy stuff like the stylish one or whatever
those money you could put into a bitcoin farm
and kappa in the meantime
daaang wow i didnt know it was that expensive
you can see it on the wiki, if you search "Hideout"
are the servers fucked up rn?
Euro is like 140/150
Yes.
22.5 mil plus 12mil daaaamn. thats nuts.
its taken me 5 mins tryin to back out of a game
yeah
whats EoD?
Edge of Darkness
edge of darkenss edition
edge of darkness... the most pimped out version of tarkov
dude, really the load in and load out times are crazy
and most expensive ๐ฅถ
especially the loading out, thats what drives me nuts
start max stash, gamma container, some good starting gear
i want the season pass but no gamma or stash increase ๐ฆ
Just grind it out, it's not worth paying $140 for this game, at least not until they fix it. It took me 10 days to get my hideout maxed out with bitcoin farm up and running.
yeah im good not that attached to this game XD
def worth paying that money
i bought eod the other day and the game is so much better
oh wow, 10 days, that seems unreal
get it on a sale.
on sale to upgrade to eod from standard it was 75$
or, upgrade it once a month or something like that. like $20 a version til you get to the max ๐คท
If u got Time and are good ur chilling on standard. If u got money but not time ur chilling with EOD. If u got none probs best not to play.
i upgraded 3 or 4 times to get to EoD, jus tight on money at the time
EoD isnt going to change the fact i suck XD
Yeah, there is no need to spend money on a game if you need it for more important irl things
true true
it doesnt, BUT if youre a loot hoarder like i am, that stash is still nice. "This is only like 5k but i might need it later"
TRUE, and as i new player im like "Cigarettes, hmm, might be good to have."
scav boxes are super handy
I do that as well. You know i held onto 4 fuel conditioners this wipe? ๐คฃ first 2-3 days and i just turned that quest in tonight hahaha
still holding onto blackrocks haha
bro I'm saving things for Kappa at level 6 and I know I won't get there, lol
EU and NA server can play together right?
Thats not a bad idea though. Theres a lot of items.
ive had pestily's mask since day 1 of wipe as well lol
ditto
as long as it was found in raid
stash and space is not a problem, you can easily make money on loot runs, despite of your level as a player, even if you're very bad you can still choose "easier" map and play more safe. the only tough thing to upgrade is your safe container - the longer you wait the harder it will be to finish last missions, but still you can finish them with an hour grinding in factory or just cheese them out with your friends.
so im doing delivery from the past, and I died while trying to extract from factory. I went back on customs and its not letting me pickup the item again? is it just bugged or did I just waste my time going back to customs office to get the item? I can see it but it wont let me pick it up
did you place the item in factory?
did you stashed the item in factory?
I stashed it but when i went to extract I died
thats fine
read the task
you just have to survive any factory raid now
oh okay
it says extract from factory
@burnt grail ty
no problem!
good you got it planted, such a pain dying before that
LFM lvl 8 new trying to find cool people dm
does interchange only consist of exfil campers
?
ive done 75+ raids on interchange this wipe, and have only seen 1 exfil camper, so no
man everyone talks about exfil campers on interchange but ive not come across them once personally
cause they're not a huge deal
ive come across one every pmc raid
i highly doubt that
if so, you have the worst luck ever
and they dont even camp railway like that... so there's no way that's a true statement
@arctic narwhal me and a buddy are looking for another person
i ran into two exit campers at interchange yesterday... one of em runnin a reap ir but was looking the wrong way ๐
(two separate exit campers in 6 or so raids)
i find em mostly at emercom, and i found taking the back fence gives you the best chance at exfil
also helps to take a big rig so you can shove valuables in there and take hole in the fence, which i havent seen camped yet
Back entrance of Oli?
can you clarify?
Do scav spawn (player) at the same tame as PMC on factory ?
hole in fence is behind goshan, and emercom is back enterance as oli
i dont know for sure but it feels like you get... 3 minutes before scavs spawn
I just killed a scav player rushing spawns in factory, 15s into the raid ... i'm surprised ๐ฎ
wow
You said take back entrance. You mean back entrance of the green part of the building? Because they will be looking at the road I assume?
Oh
they usually sit behind the emercom tents
and look at the back side of oli/the wall on the side of oli
you come sneakin in from the back right and goose em
and boom, free reap-ir
(results may vary)
Ah ok thanks
if i reset my profile, can i pick the english speakin dude?
Is it just me or is recoil hard to control. I feel like there is a delay between when i pull down and the gun goes down. And then I end up going too far down
Yes
bc camera recoil and gun recoil are 2 different things
@random venture you also lose all progression
recoil isnt intuitive in this game. keep holding the triggerand the gun stabilizes based on your recoil control stats
So how do u control gun recoil?
like that matters. this game is a punch in the dick
Watched that vid today xD
He spoke the truth
@limber notch Recoil gets better if you just keep holding
Depends how far you are like i wouldnt cuz im 42
there's a big bounce at the start
My recoil is lvl 0. That could be part of the problem
wtb FIR flash drive =[
Howdy! I'm wondering if it would be better to play maps a lot offline to memorize them BEFORE going online, so I can learn gear spots, or if it's better to just do some knife runs and rush around trying to scrape loot together and get out to start memorizing maps?
Doing a once over offline never hurt
Scav runs help too
Yeah I figure it'd be good to do offlines to figure out where all the exfils are
See my issue is never getting killed or even not finding loot, it's finding exfils in a timely manner.
Keep a map pulled up
Maps help but it's slightly different in the game than in the overhead interactive maps
most raids are 40 minutes+, how can you not find extract? lol
Because I spend 30 minutes looting lmao\
well stop doing that
A compass helped me. especially with woods
Idk if its the best but i loot on my way to extract unless I have a target
It's easy to say that, but keep in mind that my unfamiliarity of the map means my movement is slower due to trying to figure out where I am with the map, or using landmarks @drifting jolt
Honestly I guess I ought to just git gud and run offline like 5 times to get a good familiarity
well maybe you should spend more time offline
im looking for agroup to play with
I'd be down
If you're surviving raids playing like that then keep playing like that, no reason to go try and rush around just to die
Not at at all. Im very new and frankly I suck
sure inv me to a group chat
I have kind of learnt how to figure where I am on customs using maps and landmarks.
Also over time you memorise stuff.
it's the most camped map on exfils, but they're still not there a lot
im not saying its constant
It took me 3 raids to figure out interchange caches + IDEA pc room. And I learnt Oli tech store location in 1 offline raid
just that 1 in 70 is great luck and every raid is terrible luck
Probably best to do interchange w/ friend/s
or use the car extract or saferoom
a keycard and for the power to be on
You need to find the keycard in that raid?
There are youtube videos about the extractions
Ill have a look
Saferoom on interchange requires the Object #11 keycard
you can see whats necessary for each exfil
I think I'm not suited for this game :(
I have done 3 runs
and in all 3 I found GREAT loot
bitcoins, tetriz, GPUs and such
only 3?
the most significative ones
i would just do online runs with a map up, youll learn it eventually
I do that
but
when I am about to extract
I get killed in horrible ways
and I get so angry cause
it happens to everyone
Put the great loot in your Alpha container :/
I literally have nothing left
always expect the unexpected
just use your Scav too
I fill it with meds
dont do Factory every time
I went interchange
Yaaaa take ur meds out lmaop
I have the MES key
so I can lose them all?
this is my stuff
@sharp terrace would you rather die with 15k worth of meds or 200k worth of loot?
does the highest game upgrade stash size permanent?
yes
cool thx
well obviously I keep good stuff in the alpha container but last raid I did I found a gpu in scav
And you should have put it in your alpha
in the alpha container the scav does not have?
Ohhh you found it as a scav mb
sorry didnt mean to say "in scav" more like "when scavving"
feels bad
you said this, so we assumed you dont do that
I know man just
I have 1k roubles and all my scav runs are profitable and then I just drop like a body
If you find a GPU as a scav, you then make the SWEATIEST run to the extract ever
that's what I did
I noticed someone was following so I turned he was right behind me
and I shot him
and he shot me
but of course
he gets me first
I mean its more like he had more aim or something cause he got head, top of the head
if your not willing to get depperesion be suicidal and hate the human kind this game will never suit you
Good way of putting it
I just scavved and died by HEAVY BLEED
jokes on you, I was already there!
3rd week and still no flash drives. this quest will never be finished
i feel sorry for you
Go to dorms and search safes
I found mine in the back of the van with 2 pc blocks in customs
does shotgun shells come outta vest or pockets first and is it left to right or up and down in the vest
same with nades
in this situation my magnum would load then 50 then ap
Yes
no the 8.5 would load first
tru
he said magnums first
8.5 is magnum buckshot
oh right right, im stoned, my bad lolz
Lmao
MAG BUCK
lol
sames tho lol thats why i was mad confuzed about the pockets
time to put this to work
this is my only gun left and I don't think I'm ever going to do that if not in labs
how am i supposed to do jaeger`s quest where i need to have a fracture and kill players, that seems really unfair, am i supposed to camp
kill pmc with tremor?
yeah
have a friend hit ur leg with a crowbar, thatll fracture it
isnt arm better?
and then i have to camp...
You dont have to camp
i can just heal one with an item
if you dont want to
it`s not optimal if i dont
cause it will take forever till i get it done
that's a later task
Often you get hit in a firefight anyways and get fractures. That one should come naturally imo
so what about killing 3 scavs on wood without using medecines
or whatever bust a leg or an arm and camp it. its only 2 kills
any good camping spot ?
he is not
every single fucking factory exfil
factory exfil ?
Top right of the map by the scav camp is where ive seen the most scavs personally @royal agate
its so cancer
peacekeeper is wayyyy better than jaegers quests
na
jaeger is terrible
jeager has good rewards for most and his questlines normaly go under things you would do in normal gameplay
killing players is easy but asking me to not use meds or not use scopes is just annoying
peacekeeper has you run around and mark shit 24/7
marking is easy
jeager outside sniper quests
Ive had a breeze with peacekeeper's quests. Jaegers are just dumb
is fine
not using scope and meds is not
bruh so fun running cross map marking
bro so fun having to break my legs
It least its easy ๐คท you want all 200+ tasks to be hard or complicated?
and i can't even break my legs and use painkillers because that will cancel out the other quest
the no using meds quest is on woods bruh
i know
pretty sure leg quest is universal
i'm doing woods
b r u h
jaeger suck
yes
Tip for that one, you cant use meds after you kill them either. The whole raid you cant.
truer words couldn't be said
damn
well wish me good luck but i think i will separate those quests
i will camp the exfil like you said to kill scavs
can i die after i killed them
or do i need to extract
that's alright
as long as i can kill those fuckers
i will also not bring any scope since there is a quest for it
Not sure.... which task? Just killing them?
Pretty sure if youre doing the no meds one you have to extract but im not 100% sure. IF its just scav kills, or scav kills with no armor then you dont have to extract.
let me do a quick search
oh no, youre fine
The wiki says killing all 3 then dying is okay, as long as you dont heal.
esmarch or hemostat will not fail this quest
okiay so yes i don't have to extract
but if i do heal it's over
but drinkable alcohol will not cancel the quest
correct. if you get in a firefight afterwards just dont heal then
so i can use vodka
that also yes. but i dont think vodka has a painkiller effect does it?
Not sure ive never tried it i guess
interesting ok
ugh i have to go in and do these scav kills there too. I just dont know woods very well at all.
wanna join
eh
i know woods a bit
i like to do scav kills alone personally. Then we dont have to share
sure
Especially for one dumb enough like no healing lol. I dont want to be running around looking for 6 scavs while we both cant heal lol
Im sure scav hunting is a thing there on woods right now a lot with all those quests.
i've done this whole game alone except for delivery from the past
oh yea? This is by far the deepest ive gone into the quests so far.
i hate woods
yeah, level 23 by just playing the lone wolf
i need all the quest for woods besides jagers
got everything already, even a red rebel
lol
I just dont know the landmarks in woods at all. dont know how to pick them out. I have a pair of friends who love it and i run woods with them sometimes and feels like no matter how many times i go i cant navigate it at all on my own
i hate woods and i went there like 3 times
but i am fine using markers and the compass
another successful trip to interchange. still no flash drive =[
well my game crashed
If you search only PCs you won't find it very quickly... you need to search drawers too
im down to join yall in a few wood runs
suggested map and location for lot of drawers?
I find so many flash drives, sas, SSD and diaries it's insane
i got 4 in the same run in customs
drawers are the best for flash drives imo
Reserve, Shoreline, Customs, any map lol
