Yo last question, should I always go with good gear?
Like im lvl 10 now so I can mod guns. And buy decent armour
Mate i've been killed that many times I dont even have a weapon anymore
honestly if below 200k run like pistol thats what me and my friend do
Im always below 200k xD
same here lmao
Except when i got medbox
i die way to much
Just need to learn a lot more about the game atm
I die way too much, because I always pistol run factory
It's one of those games where you obviously need to know spawns, angles etc.
Im.probably gonma sell all my guns, rigs and armour as well as not quest items
idk how but my friend has had game for 3 weeks and knows every spawn for interchange customs and woods
i could link a map ive been using that is super helpful shows everything u need but i just keep on scab spawn locations and player sp[awn
scav
yea thats it
Yeah drop link in and I'll have a look
its been so clutch
it's old
that just what i used to memorize the map
that isnt the full map
@severe echo It's missing the new part of customs to the south, with the broken building in the middle and crack house
that was pre patch theres a whole new part now
Dov u get experience if you play as a scav?
Just a case of learning and rinse and repeating raids isn't it till your familiar with the maps
Which is crack house? Is it the one with lots of meds?
oh a huge question ive had which nothing i try on reddit can fix is load times
Is your pc good or bad?
im average about 5 mins but when i play w my bro he drops in about 2-3 mins earlier
good
Then you are waiting for ppl with bad pc's
no we all have very solid rigs
plenty of ram too which i heard was a problem for many ppl
Most of your time is probably in "Waiting for players"
200+ hardwired internet
umm i dont believe so it is usually saying loading loot or somethiong along those lines
Then idk
anyone in here down to group us as new players or help a new player?
is there a minimum gpu amount required to farm bitcoin?
or can i just make the farm, add a single gpu and go
can anyone help me i am new and looking for people to play with and teach me the game btw me poor lmao
i trusted on scavs aim that they gonna just hit my armour so i can get it under 50
these 2 guys with vectors and aks helped me with it lol
but ragman doesnt want it
oh gosh what did i do wrong
Does reshala mostly spawn at dorms? I've been looking for him for like a dozen raids and I haven't found him. I mostly go gas station and fortress though
anecdotally, it feels like about an even split between the 3
theres also a small chance he spawns in field between gas and scav checkpoint tho
damn this lil guy is an elusive SOB
I already have the kill I just need his damn gold titty
i swear he only shows up when i dont want him there lol
i cleared fortress and was looting upstairs
For the quest, Supply Plan from Therapist, who to give the folder to? Therapist or Skier?
all of a sudden the zavodsky bros march up the stairs at me
depends if you're close to a trader levelling up point. if not, skiier gives more roubles, therapist gives more XP
Last time, Skier gives that LZZH Helmet that is black and cheaper?
Is it still there?
not seein that in the wiki
anyone wants to help me and my friend get gold zibbo ?
Someone told me to lfg here as a noob, is that appropriate?
you can ask here and in the LFG channel, and theres a separate sherpa discord if you're looking for sherpas
Junior admin
oh they're some kinda boss
oh ok
its guides, people to help learn raids and stuff
cool
Ok i really like going into difficult games blind, but what would be some important must knows?
you NEED a map on a second screen
sneak around every cortner
Sound is important
second monitor
with map
you will get destroyed
Does sound work?
yes
omg thank god
they hear you they brrr fuck you
some people say it doesnt, ive never had an issue with it
Im comign from siege
If i can hear something it works better than siege
regulate walking speed to not make sounds
ADSing is way harder than siege
Yh im not saying siege is harcore or similar
no i know, just something to be aware of
i came from siege too and i had to relearn walking while ADSing, recoil, etc
I mean this game seems like a fun alternative whilst siege improves.
Its gonna be like learning siege all over again
oh god
its not nearly any similar to siege
in terms of difficulty
its like comparing a horror game to a flight simulator
the horror game and flight sim had sex
By the timei started playing i only played ranked with a diamond friend so i was fucked
and eft came out
this game i would say is about twice as hard as siege
MMMM fries
when being onetapped by a pro
can anyone help me find jaegers camp? keep getting rekt on woods trying to find it lol
ive never seen any
Yo easier than siege already
ive heard
"kind of scavs"
theyre dangerous
siege is minecraft compared to tarkov in difficulty
theeere we go thanks for the help lol
oooo thank god lol
it was scary doing alone lmao
can anyone help me find jaegers camp?
yeah im planning on havin a buddy shoot mine near the water next time i duo
im not tryin to get head,eyesed by a scav
yeah some of these scavs have some high tech aimbot lol
what do i do with all these knives
@past cliff HEAD, EYES
thats a meme
you must know
head, eyes is the description for the Kill-feed when being headshotted.
Head and eyes hit.
you'll need 5 of the bars non damascus knives, any others can be sold to fence
i dont pick up knives ever at this point - per slot they're terrible value
Should I sell all my unmodded guns, ammo, non quest items and bad armour rigs and bags?
if you dont need it and wont use it, sell it
if you're out of room, and you like it less than other stuff, sell it
My eod stash is full of junk
Is there a good Sensetivity converter from other fps titles
Who should I hand chemical part 4 to?
LF Someone to help me in woods to do Search Missions quest, new player and unsure of map
im playing scav on reserve
Ass
idk how to play lmao
and i have been stuck in awating session start for 20 minutes now
Just play
ok
should i just close my game
Should i learn reserve and look for intel or should i buy it?
i just bought it, but you should do whatever sounds more fun to you
Ill build up some cash and buy it.
Also im thinking of saving for kiba keys. If I do should I rush at the beginning of raid, disable alarm then open or guard door and open at like 15min left?
You could always learn labs for intel too. It spawns pretty often there.
Yeah but for 200k lab keycard i might aswell just buy the intel and get it 100% as well as not risk dieing
Last question for now at least. Is it worth trying out bosses in offline mode?
evening gents, quick question about skills:
i get notifications that I leveled up a certain skill in my scav runs. do scavs have a seperate set of skills OR do they level certain PMC skills or is that kind of progress "wiped" after the raid? coz I am kinda lost here. ๐
can someone help me with finding jaegers camp please?
Scavs have separate xp to pmc. Scav skills and xp gained with scav wont count for pmc
I also need help completing the Jaegers Camp quest
@tight stream what region you in?
NA
east or west
East
anyone lookin to grp not super geared or know all extract points but aim is on point
If I die after placing the roller for bullshit quest, do I lose the item?
no
you dont even need to get out alive
What is a good ammo to craft at the workbench for passive profits?
so once your stuff is placed dont shoot anything honestly, better to get gunned down than risk accidentally killing a player scav that looks like a pmc
bp and ap 6.3 both netted profits last i checked
so did the green gunpowder craft
i burned a half mil by mispricing an item on flea the other day
these things happen lol
I bought 5 PSU for a hideout upgrade then realized I needed mechanic III
So sold them for 3k ea :')
o no
In hindsight I probably could have done barters with them
????? just hold on to them ๐ฎ
Can you mount/unmount silencers in raid ?
I got a question about groups, can I join ppl's groups while im on another server? or do we both need to make sure our servers are the same in the launcher
You can join other players groups regardless of what server you are on.
However, if they live halfway across the world, you might get booted due to ping issues.
yeah I thought so, looks like most players are from the US, and im sitting here with my south african server like
can anyone helping me doing chem pt3?
whats the best shotgun
which sks is good sks?
you can put sights on the op-sks varient
can any teach me the game
otherwise they are the same
So I plan on getting kiba keys. Is it worth spending time to turn off alarm?
are u confident on ur pvp
Kinda unless im ambushed
Are led slugs better than 7mm buck?
best 5.56x45 rounds ?
K
is ps ammo bad
Yes BT, BP and BS are the best rn
@violet otter PS 762 is decent... 545 PS is not
Why does m14 utg 4 point sell for 200k?
It's a required part for a Gunsmith quest.
Well thats ez money for me I guess xD
I was gonna sell to mechanix for 5k lol
Thanks for your help orbb
alright, i have almost 3 mil, but im not sure what do with the money. tips for a newbie?
Invest into better gear for runs, invest into hideout, quests, etc
well yes, but what exactly? im slow to quest cause im bad
Gunsmith quests... that's pretty much it lol
I find mechanics gun building quests are the best
Can someone assist me with "The Extortionist" Task?
Ive "done it" several times never able to extract
Have flea market?
Buy the factory key
Leave through the shortcut, run by new gas, run to zb, or vice versa and leave via stronghold
Is there an extract stronghold?
Ya
ZB-13?
Oh shoot
Ay yo Ill help
is there anyone who wants to trade green card vs black i got black i am willing to put some stuff on top
Kiba keys have no dura right?
no
Well i spent all my money on them
also the task dose not lower prapor
Guess im wrong
Power has to be on to open the door
@lusty glacier reset all controls?
i think the issue was your LMB wasnt set as press, or hold, or double tap, ect
just "LMB" w
you can fracture someones leg with a crowbar right? and it wont black
Is it weird to be lvl 7 and to not have been able to finish a single goddamn task yet?
Actually?
melee to someone's limbs has a chance to fracture for sure
like cultists will snap your arms like twigs
theres a loud ass alarm too
@oak pelican nah that's normal for beginners
Depending on the route to powerstation It might be worth disabling the alarm
Any absolute big boned chads want to carry me in some labs. I have 2 keycards that dont have found in raid status. Id rather just use them, than only get like 60k rubles from them.
@bold kernel how new are you
first wipe?
This wipe, just started this wipe about 4 days ago. I played a couple wipes late 2019 early 2020
FUCK MAN THAT FELT GOOD
ahhh okay
he chased me down cause i shotgunned him from afar
and i got that lucky spread into his face
I still consider myself kinda new, so if you find someone to take you to labs i wanna tag along haha
ok
i started early october, too scared to run labs by myself
the random deaths really do confuse me tho'
you can have all bleeding fixed
but randomly you'll still die
like are you suppose to randomly bleed?
You can take damage from more than just bleeding.
because it happens to me a lot
And your bleeds can be opened back up if you use that limb too much right after fixing the bleed
basically
๐ค good game
@red flame do you patch your legs a lot
If you have a fresh wound and run, you get a bleed
That's ur problem
and had everything blacked. was limping to extract
Ya you had a fresh wound and bled
sick. tyty. not even mad I lost that 42's gear. he needs it if he was that hungry for a shotgun scav haha
Hey all i just started playing like 3 or four days ago. I am level 5 in game and looking for help with quest raid and map knowledge if anyone or a group is willing to help.
@olive ferry @rancid swan are you guys NA?
Yes i am @robust light
is this good loadout?
ill do a raid or two with ya and anyone else who wants to tag along
Yes
That would be awesome. Let me know where to go
I'm down
cool, wanna meet in 4 man squad #7?
Wheres that
Ok
scroll down the voice channel lists and you should eventually see the # player channels
Still got room?
yeah
Im down to tag along
allright we in group 4
can any1 help me completing tasks?
Anyone got level 3 skier and willing to help source me some parts for gunsmith 13?
@muted roost what tasks
Anyone wanna help run duos on customs n stuff? Level 3 trynna do all starting tasks
Needing help with quests in woods, specifically Jaeger's intro and another prapor quest
How should you deal with your inventory when your new? It's all ready full.
Also what are the 1,2,3 beside the dealers? oh and the crown.
Hey would anyone wanna do a raid?
intreduction
how does FiR actually work? i thought i understood but several times now ive killed players, taken their gear and when ive come to sell some of it on flea one or two things wont be FiR even though ive literally just extracted with them
anything you take into raid loses found in raid.
so their gear can only be sold to traders.
is this a good akm build?
definitely not bad
pistol grip and stock
only thing you could blatantly change
without calling it min-maxing
so even though ive found it during the raid, because they came into the raid with it it doesnt count as found in raid?
correct. whatever someone brings in isn't found in raid anymore.
but that doesn't mean people won't put on a found in raid helmet or something they find over their gear. so always good to watch for the fir circles.
doing gunsmith part 14 can someone buy me from Mechanic LL3 a Magpul MOE pistol grip for AK please?
the pistol grip can be very cheap for a boost in ergo, hell, same for the stock. it's why I'd change it at all
but I'm falling in love with high ergo builds
damn i was hoping to sell these nvgs too ๐ฆ thanks for the info
but if my ak looks cool then my insurance wont work lol
a gun being about 100-120k is normal for budget
200-300k for anything that smacks and you don't have the trader options.
What is a good budget gun for under 50k
obviously some guns will be worth more than that off the weapon alone, but I don't consider those guns
just go sks and ps ammo
Guys I have a question in a quest when It says "Survive and exit the raid" does that mean I cant get a run through?
I mean something other than sks that can actually have a sight
once you have to survive, not run-through
correct. sks can have a sight, just not the basic stock for it, I don't believe
Nothing
you want the op-sks
Maybe a five seven
I feel like Adar could do for under 50k
50k is nothing in terms of a weapon so
ppsh with a 71 drum full of pst gzh 7.62x25
if you can't get the pst, get the fmj 43
i think it's called
You'll never kill anyone with FMJ, good luck with the leg Meta :D
you will kill people with the fmj
not aiming at legs
tier 3 visors only bounce it off for five or so shots
and no one is smart enough to stop wearing tier 3 visors
basically
Ridiculous to suggest someone new asking for a 50k budget weapon will kill people with FMJ ammo in a PPSH. Taking the SKS is a far better option
i bought a fab defence ak stock but now i cant put on a buttpad and i have 3 more recoil soo
11 more ergo tho
the buttpad was just for the basic vpo stock you had
I'd rather not run the PPSH, there's a reason you see almost no one using it D:
Well what's the cheapest full auto shit you can run
lol. and there's a reason you can find videos of people using it to the 'shocking' effect of it killing people.
I'm not saying take it to reserve or labs.
-but customs, interchange, factory?
Why not, lol
@chilly plume ak?
does this look sexy or what
Just find a cheap one in a scav raid, throw poly furnature on it from prapor, grab a foregrip and lazer, there ya go
is it worth having a silencer at this point?
silencer or flash hider
one or the other.
same effect
hiding presence
but muzzle flash is what usually gives others away for me, so I just would never want to be spotted off that. silencers are really nice for night raids.
but going loud will always intimidate
Your scope and stock are UGLY :(
Scope is ugly yes
took this off a player the other day, but it has the same handguard
ok bro what else you suggest then
That is a nice akm
scope I recommend a valday, but that's my preference
or a bravo 4 with a fastfire on top.
if you like the holograhpic, look at the eotech hhs
@lusty glacier if I find them in raid I use them. The kak one for adars is really common and very good.
Shitty break on that AK but fully pimps it, that guy you killed lol xdd
I mean he was a level 38 running his level 23 friend through interchange
Zhukov stock and the PWS muzzle break but I think they're quite expensive atm
stats on the zhukov and uas ak are basically the same
Yeah but it looks nice
This is what the Zhukov looks like
I said your gun looks ugly :p not that the stats are bad
its also 10k cheaper
Do I have to have the quest item for delivery from the past in my in raid inventory?
Yes
Guess you're stuck with an ugly gun :p
sexy* gun
Ugly
Do people still use the tx 15
Haven't seen one in forever
Used to see them all the time some wipes ago
More scopes
The Ergo on one is so fucking ass
tx is still a thing, but vector is reigning supreme
Wait how is that a sbr its got a 16 inch barrel
Can't hold or aim for shit with a TX anymore
Its a 22 conversion tarkovs just confused
That's kinda my question
that you get access to skier level 2 or 3?
regardless, it's virtually the same price via flea market
output is insane, and the recoil is something that even a toddler could manage
Rpm, controllablity, ammo type, mag type, easy mounting
The ammo claps too and it's quite cheap.
O
AMAZING reload sounds
From stock it is a naughty little thing
yeah the fact even stock vector is as deadly as it is
You can run it with glock mags. The 50 round drums or stick mags are so fuckin good
How amazing are the reload sounds exactly @red flame
you legit just add mods because you want it to be YOUR vector
idk about cheap 300 rounds is like 500k lo
pst is fine if mag dumpiing
7n31 maybe but ap 6.3 isn't too bad and from peacekeeper you get like 150 for $600
I think thats what the people who i take vectors from think lol
i took out shturman and his crew third day of wipe with my first vector
just mag dumping pst lol
yeah, that's a good rule, too. don't single fire that shit
Like a fuckin hose
Sucks when you mag dump a 50 rounder of expensive ammo and whiff lmao
Pst isnt gonna drop 2 geared players back to back in 1 mag easily
if they have slicks an altyns
Well only 7n31 will save you then, maybe 6.3 if you hit the head
7n31 is so similar to 6.3 now
Ive literally never run into a slick or an altyn
was it always like that?
So for me it works
I run into altyns every day
I always see slicks an altyns
and I play customs lol
Even if it doesn't, I spray them legs
interchange here
7n31 almost full pens class 6 I believe and ap 6.3 not xd
Slicks are like the most common thing ever
No they aren't
them appearing in stashs has def helped increase the sightings of them.
Bruh
I've seen 6 slicks this wipe, 3 killas lol
stashes have been fucking wonky in terms of how good they are
I've seen tons of slicks some wipes back idk when
my friend found a slick out of one of those basic black square weapon crates
gear crates. whatever
:
dude was level 11 at the time, so he had a heart attack, lol
I only play reserve so no stash for me :(
reserve feels like a big version of factory to me
everyone is just running a good killing weapon, but nothing else good
I find a lot of hatchet runners that are like level 40 on reserve lol :) it sucks for the first month or so
i stay on customs so i can feel like i'm okay at the game
I have, its just more of a pain then interchange and customs for me
Honestly surprised how often stronghold doesn't get looted on customs
yesterday every scav raid I went in, it was unlooted
5-7 is a poger gun
5-7 is good
1 tapped altyn andy
@red flame i go there late pmc raids and usually find 300k of shit
Ive found troy stocks just lying around
ive been 1tapped by the shrimp too thru alty
mhm
Shrimp is so good this wipe
shrimp is good
Been enjoying it immensely
Pistol runs :(
and feels fun to mod
For some reason I always do better on reserve than customs
Reserve full of pussies this wipe that's probably why
If only tasks were on reserve instead of customs
i am on customs, that's why
Reserve definitely has more money potential
But everyone's still running customs quests
I'm lvl 5 rn so it sucks that everything is on customs rn
nah man in all honesty if y'all are ever running construction zone and get shot from somewhere unknown
i'm sorry
Customs is harder than ever rn for me
but that's my favorite thing to do 
Level 5 customs is trash
ching
I bought literally every key not in dorms
i can show you customs if we don't lag too badly
Worst key in the game might be the usec stash one
i really shouldn't be in this chat. i have 1100 hours on customs alone
I know customs very well but I suck ass in raid
Eh its fun to chat here
๐ต๏ธ so if you want some help
I mean if you could teach me some shit about raiding in general I'd be down lol
Dont need someone telling me bt ammo isnt worth taking in
I know customs very well map wise and I know everything you could know off raid but in raid I suck ass lol
Last wipes I was doing fine but I feel like I'm stuck rn
what quest
Probably because of lack of gear rn
What quest u need help on fam
My quests rn suck complete ass
Every quest that involves bringing shit back from raid because this wipe I can't seem to survive any raids
Idk why I suck so much ass this wipe lol
I started halfway through last wipe
Customs has been very active this wipe
I started like 2 or 3 wipes ago I don't count lol
This is the farthest ive ever gotten in tarkov
But ye tomorrow you can teach me some shit if ur on
Level 23
I'm on every day other than when I'm working
O
I legit only know customs well, though
I know reserve decently and I know customs very well
what quests do you have, artyom
Shoreline quests...
The signal one, the ambulance one
Reserve quests too. The underground bunker one
i can help with that since I have similar marking quests if ya' want? and ching, I'll show you spots that you probably don't know of
and you'll have your mind blown
Aight
Im drinkin for more bday rn. Might be on later
I need to learn how to actually survive raids again
Think I need to re learn tarkov lol
Scury with a shotgun
Anyways gonna go to bed, see ya later
Anyone got any tips for getting the opthomalascope for the thicc case quest, ive found a ledX and one but for the life of me cant get the last one.

Woods?
yeah im in a tarkov rut. 2nd wipe and im lvl 12 but keep getting dunked on lol
opth are primarily located in places where chads will loot
otherwise stashes are your best friend
Yeah trust me I know xD
Try the med base on woods
I spent the money getting all the shoreline keys
Like 5 med crates with noone around
and I've yet to go into resort
Lol ill hit resort with ya
Aight ill give it a shot, Ive been hitting the med St key on interchange
All the loots yours just need to learn the map
BTC 3 is nice dont have to do shit and i get money while im at work
We can share. Curious whats behind the key doors. Ive made over 2 mil on shoreline keys
it's my first time having bitcoin farm
and I'm already loving it
I know the map well, but I don't know resort layout
I run thermals on shoreline to bridge the gap in skill where I don't know where anyone is
ledx spawns graphic card spawns keycard spawns quest locations
Ive got about 30 aks ready to run
i've farmed sanitar last wipe just to learn a boss
so I an confident in shooting him in both the eye sockets before he can blink
Lol I just need to learn shoreline so I can carry my scrub friends to victory
Last time we went in with no armor and handguns
last time I went shoreline was a week ago. killed a three man just camping waiting til it was late in raid to mark shit. best raid so far. dude was wearing that 6sh backpack or whatever
Love to see it
made it out with 30 seconds to spare and I was limping the whole way
except when your bleeding kicks back up cause your legs are blacked, your arm gets blacked next, which happens to kill you based on that small chance
Not wrong
not using painkillers?
can someone help me with getting jager?
yea
kk. what channel
you choose i will join you
Oh shit almost forgot add me so I can find you when I'm on
for the extortionist quest
are the docs gauranteed to be inside the cabin by the warehouse?
I believe so
Unless someone takes them
Then again I don't know if they have changed it
Anyone tryna play shoreline? NA e
well i've played around 12 raids died every single time not even shot my gun lol just constantly lost too, hmm anyone lend me a hand??
@hard arch yes
even if someone else has the quest and takes it its still there for you
my games broken, it dropped my mag and i cant pick it back up because the game thinks its still in my inventory but i cant reload or unload my gun
how do i fix
theres a gun store in Interchange, what key do I need to open it??
Silly question? Is there a way to take a Screenshot in tarkov
the Prnt screen key is default but you can bind it to a different key in settings @ripe ridge
Anyone trying to do a run with me I'm completely new to pc and this game
i'm new to both too
you chose a very interesting game for being new to PC gaming... oof
i mean the game is good, but is quite a task to learn if youre new to PC also
if you can grasp this game, then you should be fine to learn anything else without as much hassle lol
you need two kiba keys
i just struggle actually seeing people to shoot at died every raid so far not even shot my gun once lol
Hey all i am level 6 trying to get the beginners task done if anyone wants to help or run i need a little more map knowledge on customs as well.
and the map well i'm constantly lost people say use the tarkov maps on the wiki but doesn't help because i don't know where i am to start with ๐ญ
unfortunately we cant really teach you how to read a map ๐ฆ
Thanks! :))
@sour barn i have some really good versions of the map add me and ill dm them to you
thanks
Pick a map, ( I recommend customs to start with becuase a lot of the beginnning quests are on that map) and spawn in an offline raid. Look at your exits and go straight to it. rreapeat this until you can make it to an exit without looking at the map. It will help you so much.
you will be much more likely to spot players or scavs if you arnt so distracted with figuring out where you are
hello i am still very new i started 2 days ago but i can navigate on my own around customs, i was wondering if anyone would want to duo or trio with me to help me out a bit more thx!
Lfh I need to run quests in dorms
These maps with 3D graphics can be better for orienting yourself. Comapre your spawn location to the spawn points on the map.

Escape from Tarkov maps, stash locations, key guide and loot guide. Find the best loot and key locations in all Escape from Tarkov maps.
I like the mapgenie maps because they have a lot of info, but can be hard to interpret before you get used to the zone
map genie has been my savior
Yah, it's fantastic
are you eu or na?
ah okay sorry, im eu, otherwise ide help you out
no prob thank you though!
good luck!
so I will need both the kiba keys?
yes
and a very loud alarm will sound when you open the first door unless you turn it off
if killa is still up it will aggro him when you open the door
how would you go about turning off the alarm?
Is there a way around the failing Download? i cant get the launcher
@grim night oli secret office in goshan has a button, once you're past the tents go right all the way and you'll see a set of wooden double doors that leads to it
be careful in there that staircase in there leads up to techlight
at the beginning of a game you can definitely get into some fights there
in the task introduction (getting the letter for jaeger) rather then escape can i just put the letter in my safe box
every junk item.
No, barter trade items
item case
Rip they are all sold
I just reached lvl 10
So I just got the flea market so idk what to buy or do
Where to look for nuts and bolts?
anyone wanna help me w my essay for english class? ๐
can any1 help me in the inturdaction mission?
on any map, toolboxes has the highest chance of spawning bolts and nuts, but you can find them in most containers, like jackets, crates, drawers, etc... https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Toolbox
coolio
whats the best map to play??
Why does my heart beat so fast during a firefight in this game
and then it gets to the point where i cant aim for shit lmao
buck fever
if you just started playing just stick with your tasks, most of them will require you to play specific map; if you don't have EOD prioritize Prapor first as he will eventually grant you with larger safe container
yep pretty much. is there any way i can help get rid of this or am i forever trash at this game
ive been paring myself up with an sks with bp ammo ,ssh-68 w/ paca to get these scav kills out of the way for prapor
Hi
my heart goes 100bpm whenever im sneaking around ppl
this isnt my first wipe but im trying to actually get into this game more this whipe
do you know how can I look for a group in discord in my particular region?
if anyone needs help learning the game or anything feel free to add me im no pro but i can sure get you close to kappa
or is there any groups for a region? like for australian server
@frozen basalt CAN U HELP ME WITH INTURDACTION?
#pvp-lfg and state your desire region, or just pick LFG channel with people identifying themselves as being able to play in your region (na/eu)
@muted roost im NAW
this discord is mostly NA with some Europeans playing in odd hours, if you want to play NZ I would probably try on Pestilys discord, but who knows maybe you'll find people here as well
i'd help you out anton but my nets been absolute trash of late
man i keep on getting shot at within 50 seconds of every raid theyre so short lived and its really annoying
and all the scavs keep head-eyesing me too
there are two issues - map knowledge and overall game mechanics
if you're dying within first minute of your raid it means you're rushing head first into other players, most probably because you don't know where other spawns are and where to expect them
to fix that you can watch streamers play and learn the basic flow of your preferred map
surprisingly, the flow on most maps is extremely static and repeatable and once you get it you should be able to predict where and when you can be in danger and when you can lower your guard
for instance, on customs the spawn at railroad to tarkov will most likely rush to crack house (or, if they're cheeky they will wait for a moment to ambush people who spawned at the trailer park), while railroad to port and both sides of railroad to military will rush to dorms and spawns around usec will be occupied with, you guessed it, usec
as for the other part, just pick the map you know and feel comfortable with, and if there's no such map for you yet, just stick to customs, and play it in offline mode while setting scav amount to horde and selecting "tag and cursed" option
this will give you opportunity to learn the game mechanics and gun play with no penalties, as you won't lose anything dying in an offline raid, everything will be reset to the state from before the raid
bring your usual gear, plenty of ammo and healing and keep practicing
what map are you running
did u do it within 4 mins?
intercahnge, shore, customs
i really hate they made such a beginner quest in the high contested areas where big guns go. like how is a weak ass lvl 10 gonna fight those bois for his quest
im doing more thena loot rat, im a questing rat
no back, no gun, just my ax and hiding in a corner when i hear gunfire
doesnt make sense to have dorms be the beginner quest since thats where juiced up chads go
Trial by fire, fastest way to learn get over the jitters lol
i mean i fine with learning that you will die, but like the starting quests is in the highest loot areas? that seems like that not fire, its just yeeting into the sun, i get the +4 wipe people breeze by it and the +2 know what to do, but fresh people are just walking into their deaths
i ratted outside resort for 15 minutes staring into my axe. and pretending to be dead. then ran up and faked death outside cause i heard gunfire somewhere nearby for another 2. then i got to the roof and there was more gunfire inside so i just afked on the roof till i heard people ran away. somehow i still got shot by ai scavs on my way out.
scavs should not pose a threat to you, if they do keep practicing in offline mode
naw, i mean just random scav shot at me, i just ignored him. i was hiding from players
my head gets desintegrated the second i see a scav 
@fleet yacht Thanks! I'll try it later
how long has the air filtering unit been broken?
Just bought the game anyone down to help me out
Forever but if you refresh it'll reflect accurately.
its 25 hours now 5 minutes.
by refresh, I mean relaunch game.
ok thanks
can anyone help me learn customs better? 90% of the quests are on there and im complete dog shit
dogshit player myself but am willing to help
sure
why can i not complete mechanic level one
What do you mean complete mechanic level 1?
weaponsmith?
if i have a fracture will it go away over time if i get off rn?
yes
Just buy a splint from therapist for 3k or whatever
is there any group that focuses on helping beginners by playing with them and actively teaching them things? i think it should honestly
!sherpa
That's the sherpa area
!sherpahub
oh shit its real?
There are some good ones out there
i was just high and thinking about this but goddamn thats really cool that its real
i hope its not a flop
CalciumCal used to be extremely active here before he became a trail sherpa. I know he helps heaps of people over there.
It is early wipe so their schedules may be a little booked with the influx of new players + them working on their own progression.
Yeah just keep in mind you have to book an appointment with them basically, which is cool, but it isn't instant help :) I've heard nothing but good things from it so
If interchange alarms are disabled before opening kiba will killa still rush to it?
no
Thanks
np
Oh I have some horror stories, Yin.
sure
Most of them are pretty good, but there a few sherpas that are still like 2 years behind on content it seems. I think it's pretty hard to lose the sherpa tag once you get it.
RIP D: I haven't even used it, but I know 2 people who have and they had a good time with it but yeah, I think so
I have a bug right now where peacekeeper says I don't have any dollars, yet I have 10k, how to fix? :D
oh weird the game is saying I have no money at all O_O
huh
lets see 1 sec
restarted game to check
Oh yeah
Wow why have I never had that issue until now lol
yea, for some reason traders uncheck that box once in a blue moon
Thanks :)
It'll tell.ypu after you put your selling price in.
Add offer. Set Price. View payment.
It all depends on selling price I believe.
how do the raiders in reserve work ?
do they come only once ?
and do they always come from pulling the alarm ?
ty boss
np np
it is a 1 year old post so the values are subject to change some, but it'll give you a good idea of how they interact with the map and when to expect them.
so basically as a scav lever raiders probably wont spawn ?
cuz they probably would have been spawned already ?
Depends if someone hit weewoo yet or not
I often spawn very early on reserve scavs.
Ultimately you wont know unless you try or spawn in early enough
94 rings ~4 mins so if you spawn in within 5 minutes of it starting you should know.
hit weewoo lmao
weewooweewoo screenshot police
so i wanna start running faceshields
whats a good not super expensive helmet that allows faceshields and headsets?
LZSh
is there anyone out there willing to sherpa me?
lvl 16 quests on just about every map
lvl 2 faceshield only really blocks scav stuff right?
most average pmc ammos go through i think
but thats 160k damn
Wait, doesn't everyone call hermetic alarm weewoo?
Ok its come to my attention i have no idea what im doing
welcome to tarkov^^
wat u mean
i want to help a noobie
So how does painkillers work if I pop Vaseline and get into a fight does it increase my chances of living or what?
in seconds
Painkillers basically dampen the effects of destroyed limbs
My gf is asleep i don't want to pass her off
im in 4 man #7
If u get ur legs broken u will be able to keep walkin if u pee med
Like, if you're on painkillers and a guy blacks out your legs, you won't be limping
if u use vaseline
if someone blacks ur arm or ur leg
u can aim straight still
and u can run with it
but it will still hurt u if ur leg is blacked or broken
but the important thing is u can still run and walk like normal
So if I get blacked limbs I can still run and reposition basically
if limbs are injured you can run and black them out with the painkillers
while vaseline and ibuprofine is like 300
so watch out
so when u pop vaseline or morphine or ibuprofine
before a fight
when u know ur in a hot area
its called pre meding
K
Ibuprofen and painkillers also take away 15-17 hydration
So like when I do my dorms quest I should vasline before I peek 3 story
yeah
before i even go to 3 story
like 20 feet away from it
I pop vaseline
when i pass by stronghold or gas station
I pop vaseline
vaseline feels like it takes so long to pop lol
if u understand
So I should basically premed in bush about then run up to it
mofo cant open the vaseline
thats why its used as a premed
u dont need to be in a bush
u can do it while walking
the reason people use morphine or pain killers is cuz
they need to pop it fast
like if someone suprises u and shoots out ur leg
u quickly pk or morphine
so u can still fight
or ur basically dead
in my opinion if you ever get in a fight where ur not on pain killers and someone shoots you and ur bleeding out
i would still painkill before bandaging
So basically i should keep cheap painkillers hotkeyed for a surprise fight and the vasline in my gamma when I go into pvp areas
because being able to move is more important than stopping bleed
yes
exactly what u need to do is what u just said
if u have flea market
instead of pain killers
I would bring a propital
its like 10 - 15k
and it heals all ur limbs over time
and its a 1 second usetime and a pain killer
o shit blobmaster
Yeah I have flea I'm lvl 18 atm but I'm still learning its a steep learning curve theirs so much info about this game
i have a question can ai scavs wiggle lean?
Yes
the devs made so that the scavs act like players
long story short im glad i didnt have anything on me
they check mag and lean and run back and fourth
they ads at u even if ur normal scav
but they dont shoot player scavs right?
unless u shoot a scav in the area
Raiders are different
raiders will shoot u in 3 seconds
they will push u the fuck out
and throw a middle finger up
How far is the agro area if you kill a scav as a scav
then nade you or spray u down
ok do you know a good map to look for salewa meds in raids?
thats just feeling @jolly lily
All the maps are good
u just need to know where to look
woods has med bags in the new camps, customs has intel building/med building, interchange has mantis and some med rooms
Whats a good pp19 budget build i can use?
in interchange is that inside the mall?
