Only items found in raid count for quests and flea?
Some quests require items to have the found-in-raid status, some don't. Flea market is FIR only.

Map awareness, have a goal in mind when you go into a raid, and don't be afraid to hide or run given that survival should be your priority.
smoky wing
i think it might be one of the worst level 3 helmet if not the worst level 3 helmet in the game
limber notch
Should I just sell it?
smoky wing
yes get rid of it
limber notch
battlebuddy says lrn does not go thru sfera
Shot his face I mean

limber notch
People say customs is good to learn first

Alr thanks

I think is a good map to start off on. factory is pvp heavy. Interchange is complicated inside the mall. Woods is a forest which is easy to get lost in and I have not done shoreline.
blissful lagoon
Work on your tasks to start with
limber notch
I got a lot of profit form factory
blissful lagoon
When you first open the game, Therapist and Prapor will have tasks available for you
nocturne ice
Customs the map itself is nice, but how PMC's move is cancer
limber notch
But as a loot spot its shit
blissful lagoon
then at the top click tasks
green ruin
:0 I see I never seen tasks
tired spruce
LFG to help w first tasks? I'm only lvl 4 and have been doing offline.
blissful lagoon
u will have to accept them
green ruin
Okay okay

Then u will have to do the same for Therapist, you need to regularly check for new tasks as you level up

Do not shoot the body most people are rocking level 4 armor it wont do much and u will be dead
I have had good luck with m855 to the head
nocturne ice
but m855a1 is a good middle ground before m995 which is the best 556 i believe
nocturne ice
Can light bleeding passive heal at hideout/menu?
everything passive heals at hideout im pretty sure correct me if im wrong but its just a bandage u can buy from therapist and use
nocturne ice
A bandage is like 1k roubles if u are not sure just use that
tiny spoke
m855a1 is super expensive isnt it?
nocturne ice
m855a1 is super expensive isnt it?
if u level up peacekeeper its reasonable but it gets sold out pretty fast
same with 7n31 and ap 6.3
meta ammo
limber notch
Most expensive is 7n39, 1400 or 1600 per rnd
tiny spoke
ahh im pretty new so im just looking on the flee market
nocturne ice
yeah its endgame ammo but ap 6.3 is good too
limber notch
is 7n31 diff to 7n39?
nocturne ice
For 9x19 u can craft ap 6.3 but i run pst gzh and high ergo gun and magdump head
@limber notch yeah 7n39 is a 5.45 AK ammo
7n31 is a 9x19mm ammo
limber notch
ah ok, thats the best 9m ammo and 39 is best 5.45x39 ammo

Yeah its 5.45x39 btw

do u know the spawns ??
gaunt finch
Somewhat, I at least know who spawns where in some parts of map like the room with two blinking lights
I dont rush the thing either
I wait maybe 10-15 seconds and listen then I move
bold kernel
i would rush into office
gaunt finch
Then I get to office and some guy kills me
bold kernel
and pray
gaunt finch
I rushed once into office and didnt die
mainly cause nobody fucking went there
the only pmc on that map was an exfil camper

youre pretty unlucky then

i guess
gaunt finch
should I use any of the guns here? I'm sure ap rounds are expensive asf
I have tons of good bp ammo anyway
gaunt finch

I mean if you keep spawning in you'll eventually find some hatchlings trying to set tools or rush office
gaunt finch
And lose money in the process
Then I'm gonna have to do this whole shit again except with an svd

wait till u do it with a 1 million rouble thermal lmao @gaunt finch

I remember seeing a guy's arm before I got shot to death
limber notch
I mean I was in office 2 raids ago and basically thats what happened to me
I saw his body only while the death animation was going
limber notch
Dont be scared. Try be on the offensive. I found that helps a bit.
gaunt finch
I be on the offensive I get picked off by people who are scared

If you are gonna die being scared might as well just die but make heir raid hell

i did it with like level 3 or 4 armor and a kedr filled with PBM because at the time there was alot of other pistol and shotty boys
limber notch
Might just get a friend to go factory with me and rush exfil
gaunt finch
I would go kedr if everything wasnt so expensive
robust light
idk how the factory ecosystem looks these days though
kedr is only better than shotty for the sucide runs if you have PBM i feel
gaunt finch
why though
limber notch
btw occo, if you know someone is for example running down a hallway and u got element of surprise, crosshair placement and good reaction will most likely secure a free kill

Why are you rushing the task? Why not focus on others and kill pmcs while doing those?

hi everyone, been seeing tarkov on youtube and was wondering how difficult the game is ui wise. i havent bought the game and am seeking information! thanks in advance
lethal narwhal
ui is not difficult at all
odd rampart
is it a difficult game? is it better to play with friends?
lethal narwhal
starting out its gonna be very difficult, playing with friends brings their own advantages and disatvantages
odd rampart
is the server here full of sweats? or is it all skill gaps?
waxen thistle
any use for smoke grenades ?
i just got the game and its somewhat luck based imo
sweats and skill gaps
you can get a game were you barley peak a corner and get 1 tapped or you can get in and throw a a grenade and kill a guy stacked on loot and hopefully leave
odd rampart
might give it a shot then (famous last words XD)
lethal narwhal
youre gonna wanna give up a lot during the beginning but its worth it
very big learning curve

Hi, Im level 6 fairly new to the game lf one or two guys to runs some custome/woods with me for the early quests and get some juicy loot. HMU if u interested. im 25 & from the UK.
somber barn
imo, the biggiest drawback of starting the game is running into high lvl and geared people , guns/ammotypes/modding/looting can be learned as you play. Running into a big MF starting game is a death
lethal narwhal
yeah youll get discouraged a lot
tired spruce
Am I one of the only people who still realize those guys are far from invincible
Like isn't an ear shot lethal in almost every instance?
waxen thistle
threw a grenade at a guy dressed as a jugg with a kitted gun so maybe not

theres ear armour with some helmets, and sometimes it can be hard getting an angle on the ear

naw i nade or getting drop on them is nice, but most of the time being low on them and starting out just makes it hard, i still cant do early quests starting out. i cant get to factory to drop off the case cause some guy with a vector is looting and controlling the top floor, and if i try to wait him out the scavs and everyone else waiting him for to leave show up

Using throwable weapons (3 skill points limit per raid):

Using Melee weapons (3 skill points limit per raid):
129% progression speed: The first 10 hits give 1.3 skill points (+0.13 point per hit)

Walk or sprint while carrying more than ~47% of your maximum

dou know of some cheap things that i can carry that will add alot of weight
So using grenades would cost X * 15, to get 2.3 skill points
Whereas walking while carrying a lot takes 2 km, and gives you 2.3 skill points

there is a 50% progression as well so it evens out to 3 skill points in all three methods
but basically yay
