@chilly plume got a good vid?

chilly plume
#

Go on YouTube and find a recent guide something not too old cause the game has changed a lil bit

pure talon
#

and play offline raids to learn maps and basic game mechanics, also gun will probably behave much different from youd be expecting, so use that opportunity to try them out - as far as tarkov is concerned an offline raid never happened, you will not lose anything if you die and everything is rolled back to state from before the raid

frosty stump
#

oke thnx guys fore the tips

chilly plume
#

But yeah @frosty stump just find a good guide on the game and practice and ask people around for help when you need it and you'll be doing great in no time

frosty stump
#

i hope so @chilly plume its looks like a very nice game

eager sigil
frosty stump
#

curently non

eager sigil
#

Or region

#

EU?

upper owl
#

or is it not as hard as rust

eager sigil
#

Similar

upper owl
#

ah ok

frosty stump
#

@eager sigil jep

bold kernel
#

Just go out with an smg and you dont need to worry about recoil

eager sigil
frosty stump
#

if you have one spare

eager sigil
#

Username is the same as here, hmu

upper owl
#

should you carry 2 guns or only one

#

when doing a raid

chilly plume
#

One

bold kernel
#

Uno

frosty stump
#

@eager sigil its only Killspade

upper owl
#

is a sniper good or like what should i run, is there a meta

bold kernel
#

Smg go brrr

chilly plume
#

You can't exactly decide what to run until your lvl 10

modern obsidian
#

Should I choose Bear or the other guys at the start?

chilly plume
#

Up to you

upper owl
#

like you can only use pistols

eager sigil
modern obsidian
#

Any benefit to one Over the other?

eager sigil
#

Nope

bold kernel
chilly plume
#

You don't get to buy whatever guns you want until you unlock the market @upper owl

frozen basalt
#

Not yet

plush quest
#

Bears get aks
Usec gets m4

modern obsidian
#

English>Russian

frozen basalt
#

bear an usec are the same for now

#

soon they will get there own perks

chilly plume
#

Can't choose what you find

upper owl
#

which one speaks russian

frozen basalt
#

bear

modern obsidian
#

I prefer 5.56 in real life so I’ll go used

#

Usec*

bold kernel
#

A man of culture

frozen basalt
#

anyone can use 5.56

chilly plume
#

@upper owl watch a guide on tarkov its WAY different than rust trust me

#

I play rust as well and tarkov is way harder and different

modern obsidian
#

What map is a good noob map

frozen basalt
#

customs

chilly plume
#

Customs

upper owl
chilly plume
#

@modern obsidian customs has all the beginning quests you need to do

modern obsidian
#

Got it, I’m sure I’ll learn all this momentarily after it installs

heady fox
#

Where most scavs located in woods?

chilly plume
#

@upper owl well just play the game then

modern obsidian
#

Is there a good guide anywhere that explains the med system in the game

chilly plume
#

Yes

#

Find one on YouTube there are plenty

modern obsidian
#

Just google it?

#

Okay

chilly plume
#

I can explain a bit for you if you want tho

modern obsidian
#

I know like there’s a shit ton of different medical items😂

frozen basalt
#

@heady fox sunken village the new village usec camp an scav bunker as well as scav house an checkpoint or marked circle

chilly plume
#

Yeah there is

modern obsidian
#

I won’t make you list off every item I’ll just watch a video haha

chilly plume
#

Yeah good idea lol

frozen basalt
#

only heals u need is surv12 ifak hermostate an painkillers

upper owl
frozen basalt
#

selewa is nice but its 2by 2

modern obsidian
#

What about the cheese thing

frozen basalt
#

they are ok but they only heal 100hp

#

so you would need to carry 4-5 to get max hp again

chilly plume
#

There's tons of items but medkits like salewas and ifaks they combine lots of medical items

modern obsidian
#

Gotcha

chilly plume
#

For example

#

A cheese will heal you but not stop bleeding or fix fractures

#

A salewa though will heal you up stop bleeding and stop heavy bleeding as well

#

And a grizzly can fix fractures aswell

#

And for completely blacked out dead limbs you use a surgical kit

modern obsidian
#

Ohhhh shit okay, so like there’s items that fix multiple injuries for it

#

Got *

frozen basalt
#

heavy bleed that you dont stop with a hemostat will eat the ifak or salewa alot like 250hp off of it

chilly plume
#

And of course there is specific items for each specific injury if you don't have a medkit

#

For example if you don't got a grizzly you can use a splint

modern obsidian
#

What does vaseline do

frozen basalt
#

painkiller

chilly plume
#

And there is also painkillers that can temporarily get rid of any fractures and shit

modern obsidian
#

This game is hella in depth

ember pendant
#

Get rid of the negative effects. You'll still take damage for running on a fracture.

chilly plume
#

If your in raid and in the middle of a fight and your hurt bad you pop some painkillers to temporarily be fine until you can fix everything

frozen basalt
#

dont take it mid fight

chilly plume
#

Then there is stims but those are later on

frozen basalt
#

take it before the fight

modern obsidian
#

Expect to take damage haha

#

I like it

chilly plume
#

Can't always anticipate a fight but yeah good advice lol

frozen basalt
#

it can take about 4-5 seconds to put it on

chilly plume
#

Depending on the one yeah

frozen basalt
#

i always pop off spawn an near high loot

chilly plume
#

I always pop if I'm expecting a fight

ember pendant
#

I pop them when I plan on running a decent distance or about to fight.

frozen basalt
#

the more you play the more you will know when a fights about to happpen unless its a bush camper then your fucked

modern obsidian
#

Understandable

frozen basalt
#

can expect a bush camper

chilly plume
#

There is a shit ton to learn lol

frozen basalt
#

cant

ember pendant
#

If you get shot between cover in the leg you basically are a sitting duck hobbling away.

modern obsidian
#

What’s some good items to bring on my first raid? Or should I just run scav for a little

frozen basalt
#

i mean you can but theres sooo many bushes

ember pendant
#

Scav run tbh.

frozen basalt
#

do scav runs to learn the map you want to play

modern obsidian
#

That’s what I’m thinking

chilly plume
#

Do offline raids for a bit

#

Learn the map

frozen basalt
#

you wont learn pmc extracts but you will get a idea of where to go

modern obsidian
#

Didn’t even know that was a think tbh

chilly plume
#

Get a map

ember pendant
#

But bring the grizz kit in your container and one of the scav gearsets when you go to do pmc.

chilly plume
#

On a second monitor or tab out

#

Have a map

frozen basalt
#

when you play a pmc on customs you always have to cross the water to leave unless certain extracts are up

modern obsidian
#

Yeah I have my laptop here with maps open

chilly plume
#

Good

ember pendant
#

That grizz kit will fix 80% of the stuff that happens. Just bring some painkillers to supplement blacked limbs

modern obsidian
#

Appreciate it boys

rigid glen
#

Grizz takes considerably longer to heal tho

#

so just keep that in mind

modern obsidian
#

Got it

frozen basalt
#

just double click to heal faster

ember pendant
#

You can cancel the animation at around 3 seconds and still get a full heal off.

rigid glen
#

oh really?

ember pendant
#

Yea.

rigid glen
#

you just double click heal hotkey?

clever tiger
#

Hey im new to the game and im looking for someone to run some games with me?

chilly plume
#

Whatever it is you will learn along the way with practice @modern obsidian

frozen basalt
#

as soon as you see the needle or anything happen double click an it will stop the long heal for only 3hp

ember pendant
#

Grizz heals for like 250 per use. You just need a fraction of the time it's actually healing.

rigid glen
#

oh shit that

near cave
#

what is best budget 7.62x39 ammo?

rigid glen
#

's good to know

frozen basalt
#

so if your missing 3hp off a arm u dont have to sit an do the 20 second heal

modern obsidian
#

@chilly plume thanks

ember pendant
#

Ps sweat.

#

Bp for best.

rigid glen
#

thanks bruv

ember pendant
#

Only two rounds I'd use for 762.

chilly plume
#

Who needs rifles when you can just run a 5-7

frozen basalt
#

thats all i do

#

5-7 nothing else its not worth it

#

headeyes with a m4 u dont even get to fire 1 time

#

no thanks

near cave
#

does tank helmet have an internal headset?

#

or does it make sounds worse

frozen basalt
#

no

chilly plume
#

Never use tank helmet

#

It's horrible

frozen basalt
#

scavs just have it on cause there scavs never take it

chilly plume
#

I wouldn't run a kolpak either

#

Shit helmet

frozen basalt
#

only helm you should buy is the penis helm

chilly plume
#

Only helmet worth running at low levels is ssh steel helmet

frozen basalt
#

yup

#

nothing else is worth 80k

near cave
#

got a few untars

#

might use those up

frozen basalt
#

they will do good but you will stick out

chilly plume
#

Untars as in the blue ones

#

That is like asking to get tapped in the head

near cave
#

yeah just using for loot run but i see how they'd make you stick out

bold kernel
#

It would be better to get shot in the head than wear those

frozen basalt
#

just wear a usec hat

#

helms are just like everything else in this game not worth it

chilly plume
#

Untar helmets are worse than no helmet because your head sticks out so much

near cave
#

djeta also useless?

chilly plume
#

Just use ssh green helmet

#

Yes

#

Useless

frozen basalt
#

if i were you it would be class 4 armor ski mask usec hat comtacs an 5-7

chilly plume
#

Only helmet worth running at low levels is ssh green thingy

summer blaze
#

but blueberry cosplay D:

frozen basalt
#

if you cant use the 5-7 then m9 works good to

#

you will get tired of blue berry cosplay real fast lol

near cave
chilly plume
#

I agree with running 5-7 but idk about no helmet lol

frozen basalt
#

peacekeeper wants u to be a blueberry forever

summer blaze
#

^^

frozen basalt
#

helms not worth it

summer blaze
#

I rolled up to resort with my buds all as blueberries

frozen basalt
#

your going to get head eyes or head jaws anyways

deep pelican
#

just run altyns, too cheap not to

summer blaze
#

we all died. but at least they all come back xD

#

no one wants to take blueberry gear

chilly plume
#

Just run altyn it way better than nothing

bold kernel
#

found a slick in a stash

#

live is good

chilly plume
#

Same

#

Well

rigid glen
#

Anyone down to help me do the store visits quest on interchange?

chilly plume
#

I found a ghzel and an Altyn in a stash

rigid glen
#

I just keep getting raped by vector four mans

frozen basalt
bold kernel
#

i found an altyn yesterday

ember pendant
#

Gzhel is nowhere close to a slick lol.

bold kernel
#

just running stashes for quest items rn

frozen basalt
#

yup all the new guns hit so hard

summer blaze
#

@rigid glen I did that quest by going in there at night and just wait until like sub 10 min then looked at all the stores and gtfoed

strong jolt
#

oh boy do I suck at interchange

chilly plume
#

Once I killed a dude with a toz from behind and he had 1 mil worth of gear lol

summer blaze
#

had to bring food thou

frozen basalt
#

if anyone needs help with any quest on tarkov feel free to add me i can help i play on NA

bold kernel
chilly plume
#

Do you only run 5-7

frozen basalt
#

when you have hours in to the game you will understand that big guns are a waste of money unless ur with a squad

#

the gun will be gone before u can even fire with the spawns on solo

chilly plume
#

That is still not an answer to my question lol

rigid glen
#

by that time tho there's hella scav players

frozen basalt
#

yea only 5-7 unless with friends or a quest

chilly plume
#

Nice

#

5-7 needs nerf lol

frozen basalt
#

same with vector an lapua

chilly plume
#

Tapping altyns with a pistol is not right

frozen basalt
#

the lapua firing like a shotgun is not right

summer blaze
#

@rigid glen going in as a team works too, but it does get confusing unless u know everyone so personally I like running most missions solo xD

#

or just do the "bash head against wall until wall crumbles" way and run in over and over with hachet :p 1 store per life

fickle wraith
#

Then again, I never really spend much on guns to begin with

#

I like using great ammo weapons such as the VPO which isn't that expensive to mod

frozen basalt
#

theres just so much that can happen in this game

#

its not worth the big guns

fickle wraith
#

Yeah definitely true

frozen basalt
#

i like to take them from people

fickle wraith
#

I mean I never use the 500k weapons or anything remotely as expensive as that

#

like 100k is the max usually, unless I stole it from someone

summer blaze
#

Just use decent gun with decent ammo :p AK74M and PP hasnt backstabed me yet lol

chilly plume
#

Good strat use 5-7 to upgrade to big gun in raid

frozen basalt
#

reserve is a good 5-7 map

fickle wraith
#

BTW great beginners tip, when you got the money, the marked room key is so worth it. Already got at least 3 mil back from it and still got 10 uses left. Its incredibly profitable

frozen basalt
#

you can come out with 4-5 aks without a battle

fickle wraith
chilly plume
#

@fickle wraith 5-7 is op right now

frozen basalt
#

its always been

chilly plume
#

You can tap altyns with the right ammo

summer blaze
#

@fickle wraith u r lucky af I used a good 15 charges and got maybe the base cost back and I only died like 3 times

molten spruce
#

Hey level 11 here looking for help getting money and doing quest if anyone wants to play and help hmu anything is appreciated

fickle wraith
#

I was running the mp153 with ap20 for a quest and goddamn that also hits like hell

fickle wraith
#

And the car extract did help me out many times tbh

celest fox
#

I'm having some trouble getting to level 10, and I watched Pestily's vid about getting a fast level 10, and the plan was to go into factory and just pvp a lot, but every time I go in, I end up dying. So I'm essentially just losing money every time I go in
I'm assuming there's a better way to get to level 10 than just rolling the dice in factory

fickle wraith
#

questing, getting to know 1 particular map and just enjoying yourself

#

if the game starts to feel like a grind, stop playing for a while. This game can get very annoying very quickly haha

summer blaze
#

@fickle wraith I found only 2 cases, a ammo and a money with the money being lost. All the others were guns that at most was 100k so maybe im just stupid unlucky

#

wont argue the key is a good investment thou

fickle wraith
summer blaze
#

My friend found like 3 fking rassessssss

fickle wraith
#

dont forget to take out the mags and the ammo

#

cause sometimes the mags cost as much as the weapons

summer blaze
#

yep

fickle wraith
#

or the lapua amo

#

ammoi

summer blaze
#

im just unlucky lol

fickle wraith
#

yeah, it happens

#

I didnt buy the key though, found it in the big construction building on customs

#

found it twice now in the same jacket, and found many other 500k+ keys in that exact jacket. So might wanna check that out!

summer blaze
#

my last one I had to sneak into dorms, get ambushed by 7 scavs, unlocks door only to see another scav pop out the starts and try to peek me, killed the guy with a scav shotgun, opened room only to find like 12 M61 ammo, a 50k gun and like a pistol .-.

strong jolt
#

If I want a shot at killing killa, do I have to rush for him before anybody else gets there? Or is there a decent chance he'll be around later in the riad

#

I'm hemorrhaging gear sets being very aggressive

Guys, I'm 99% sure theres an extract camper behind the gate on old gas, in customs. I have no nades. Im a scav trying to get out, with 10 min left in raid. How tf do I make him leave ?

summer blaze
#

I love how my luck is so shit that since I bought the key, I have spawned once at the radio tower. That single time, I went into dorms and had a welcoming party thrown by reshala and his buds. rip me.

fickle wraith
#

just wait if youre scared

#

let him leave first

#

time is your ally

queen steeple
fickle wraith
#

yeah then just wait it out

getting in there is a bad idea

Need custom or interchange runs

pure talon

hmm, does't work, but there's a dedicated discord channel, you have to apply for a raid and someone will get back to you

limber notch

Can you even count pmc kills? Doesnt kills count scavs too?

pure talon
#

character screen, overall

limber notch
#

Yeah, doesnt it count scav kills too

#

Im quite sure that also counts scav kills

pure talon
#

it does

#

but in detailed sheet you have have bears and usecs counted separately

limber notch
#

Yeah his title says 2800+ pmc kills

#

Oh

#

got it

pure talon
#

but yes, i think it's 2800 kills in total, not pmcs

but given how much he play even that would be possible

Wow I have a good bit of my kills on lvl 31-50 players

Does anyone feel like helping out a complete beginner? I'm level 3 did some offline stuff to get familiar with PVE and maps, but otherwise I have no idea what I'm doing :/

chilly plume
#

This is beginners assistance

rich glen
#

I know

#

it was an autonomic response

pure talon
#

i love the level of constructive feedback this channel offers

civic flume
#

Would anyone be willing to be a Sherpa for me? I literally have no idea what I’m doing and the videos I’m watching on YouTube aren’t really helping that much

pure talon
#

@dreamy sierra this is the friendly part of community btw

rich glen
#

I've asked them to add more beginners assistance voice channels but I just got referanced to the Sherpa hub discord

#

which can be pretty dead at times

#

feels almost like being relegated to some support phone which has no operators on it

pure talon
#

what would you expect

#

BSG banned 40k players in January, barely anyone plays anymore

rich glen
#

that they add more beginners assistance voice channels? or even make it so you'd just spawn more voice channels as needed? I've seen discords that have that

#

we're talking about company that needed 4 years to add inventory feature to the game, and another 7 months to implement it correctly.

rich glen
#

not to mention a few years to even make this discord

#

but I won't hold it against them, they are a growing company and there are growing pains

#

especially with Unity, which was probably the wrong choice of engine but the one they had experience with

pure talon
#

I don't know, I didn't had much time to play recently so I played only couple scav runs, but every game seems to be dead, whenever i went to customs either usec or crack house were not looted

rich glen
#

well, I have PvP gun fights every game (if I'm not actively avoiding hot spots), try adding more servers to your selection

civic flume
#

Is there anywhere I can go to see if any experienced player can show me around?

rich glen
#

scav runs can be pretty dead since most players have already extracted by the time you get into raid... try Woods, you often get 40min in that map as a scav (interchange I often just get 15 min)

rapid trench
#

Scav runs are usually much quieter than pmc raids.

near cave
#

pmc runs are not dead lol

wind gulch
#

they loot stuff that is left

civic flume
#

Where is Sherpa hub?

bronze void
#

Scav runs are quieter because you spawn later, on interchange you can spawn at 10 mins remaining most PMCs will be gone by then

limber notch
#

Should I just sell not FIR gas an to therapist?

wind gulch
#

if you did the gas an quests then sure

limber notch
#

I need to 2 FIR

#

so I dont think ill need more for quests

wind gulch
#

well I didnt read the "not" lol

#

no you don't just sell em

bronze void
#

gas analyzers have a couple of good barters, you might want to check that

limber notch
#

ok thanks

#

Ill check them out

wind gulch
#

you can craft some stuff with it but not really matter

bronze void
#

gas analyzer + uv lamp give you grizzly from therapist 2

pure talon
bronze void
#

then you are extremely lucky, i hit crack every time from intelligence and its either looted or not spawned

#

and that is as pmc

limber notch
#

Yeah ill save it for trades

#

Intelligence has so many spawns on reserve compared to other maps

wind gulch
#

I'd sell it, it is just 14k for 2 slots, keeping it is a waste of stash

too bad idk reserve

Every time I go to reserve scav or PMC I get headshot from across the map. Lol

#

I think woods

hardy bone
#

Yeah, there's a couple spawns on woods for it, but I had no luck there

limber notch
#

but its not a 100% spawn rate

hardy bone
#

Both in village, iirc.

limber notch
#

factory has 3

#

Dont rush to extract though

#

I got a run through and so not FIR

#

wait 7min or kill 1 person

polar current
#

guys why do people wear those level 2 starwars face masks?

#

just to protect against scavs?

ocean granite
#

What is FIR?

polar current
ocean granite
#

alright

hardy bone
#

Didn't realize that RTs made things not FIR. Lol

ocean granite
#

so if you extract before 7 mins, the items are notFIR

minor coyote
wind gulch
#

you either in raid for 7 mins or get 200 xp

hoary yacht
#

so i cant find any scavs for my request

wind gulch
#

you will not get run through status

hoary yacht
#

this game is bugged af

#

i dont understand it. Before i couldn't find gas analyzers, now i cant find scavs

deep pelican
#

and that means its bugged?

minor coyote
#

scavs spawn later in the raids now

#

chill in a bush for 20 min then go hunt scavs

hoary yacht
#

i think its fucked lol

#

oh faxs

limber notch
#

Thats why I can never find scavs as soon as I spawn on factory

hoary yacht
#

so they dont spawn same as me?

deep pelican
#

just kill all pmcs and then hunt them after

hoary yacht
#

i need 5 kills with a sniper from 40 meters

minor coyote
#

player scavs dont spawn until certain time, ai scav can spawn throughout the whole raid

hoary yacht
#

i have 4 rn

limber notch
#

They spawn at same time as pscavs?

minor coyote
hoary yacht
#

gonna run customs ill give that one a try

#

where is it exactly?

minor coyote
limber notch
#

Thanks

hoary yacht
#

cheers

#

i think the game makes it harder to finish some quest

#

for instance it took me at least 16 hours to find gas analyzers 💀

#

literally cleaned interchange and i found nada

minor coyote
#

gotta go to maps where they spawn often

#

use the wiki, or mapgenie quest tool

hoary yacht
#

apparently interchange has them on the shelves, i found 0

#

i finally found one in customs and one in interchange

analog marlin
hoary yacht
#

yup, i literally looked through entire interchange and found nothing

#

its very frustrating

pure talon
#

drawers

#

jackets

#

duffel bags

#

i have no idea where this concept originated, but going to oli specifically to look for gas analyzers is so wrong

proven quartz
#

I found 2 in one run at Customs

minor coyote
#

just do factory and search drawers for ez time

hoary yacht
#

ive found more in customs and reserve than in that shitty interchange

wind gulch
#

reserve has like 60 70 drawers,, you can easily find gas an there

minor coyote
#

the drawer route is packed now tho :c

proven quartz
#

so when we need assistance, do we just find an opening in beginners assistance?

#

or is that just people watching someone experienced play

wind gulch
#

go in as a scav, when everybody is already left

pure talon
#

if you have specific question this is the best place to ask it, you may also look here for people to give you an introduction to the game, but i guess looking for sherpa may be better idea (or may not, i have zero experience myself with them)

wind gulch
pure talon
#

watch streamers and play offline to learn maps

proven quartz
#

That's what I've been doing so far

pure talon
#

pestily's raid is the best probably as it tries to replicate new player experience, contrary to most streamers who focus on end game and pvp

strong jolt
#

is a vector with ap ok for going after killa?

hoary yacht
wind gulch
#

that's looking through 60 drawers

strong jolt
#

I swear gas analyzers are more common after the beginning of the wipe

#

I find them all the time now

hoary yacht
#

im telling you i went through everything on every single map

#

ive found more graphic cards than that shitty gas analyzers

#

i found 4 graphic cards, 5 or 6 tetriz and no gas analyzer

#

until i found one in the dorms and one somewhere in reserve

strong jolt
#

I think filing cabinets are good

#

farming shoreline pier isn't bad, there are like 3 cabinets there

#

or factory

bold kernel
#

lol

coarse lily
#

I found some 6B13 armour is that any good?

ember pendant
#

its aite

strong jolt
#

it's not bad. it doesn't repair well

#

so it's kinda like a one and done type of armor

ember pendant
#

If you know what a Gzhel is, its basically the C4 equivalent.

#

1-2 raid armor

bold kernel
clever wave
#

I EXTRACTED FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!!

limber notch
#

I found mine in cache but now I need 2 more

limber notch
coarse lily
#

Is SNB ammo good

#

?

#

Like should I save it til I get flea market and then sell it on there

ember pendant
#

Its good ammo

#

Id use or sell it

bold kernel
ember pendant
#

Personally I'd use it though.

limber notch
coarse lily
#

I dont think I have any guns that take it

bold kernel
ember pendant
#

You'll find a mosin or sv-98 soon.

#

Those are pretty common guns. If you don't like boltys just get rid of it

bold kernel
#

infact you wouldve had a better chance surviving without it because the 6b13 gives severe movement pens

limber notch
#

Damn

#

So what armour should I use?

bold kernel
#

53 pen vs class 4 armor

#

the 6b13 is like butter

ember pendant
wind gulch
#

the ones that you can afford

limber notch
#

so 6B13 xD

bold kernel
#

i would just use the zhuk-3 @limber notch

ember pendant
#

If you are sub level 10 you can't access that.

#

Unless you find it in raid.

wind gulch
#

is that the PRESS armor lol

bold kernel
limber notch
#

yeah its press

bold kernel
#

both armors are great budget

limber notch
#

I have flea

bold kernel
#

zhuk 3 is good because its cheap as fuck and repairs EXTREELY WELL

#

you can use it from being zerod out over 10 times

proven quartz
#

Are quests the fastest way to level?

bold kernel
#

also the 6b3t-m is a level 4 armored rig that is cheap asf too @limber notch

#

besides that maybe the trooper and thats it

potent jasper
#

What is the best way to make money without the best pvp skills

coarse lily
#

The M1A any good?

wind gulch
ember pendant
#

tv-110 / avs are good for backpackless runs.

limber notch
#

Yeah it is pretty cheap

proven quartz
#

Just need to get to 10

limber notch
#

But most sold are very damaged

#

Might use zhuk

bold kernel
#

avs is really bad because its made of combined materials

coarse lily
#

Ifk if I should sell is as I only have 8 bullets abd lvl 1 traders dont have them

bold kernel
#

use tv-110, m-1, and m-2

wind gulch
#

cuz killing raiders give tons of exp and you can totally do it at lower than lv10, but it requires experience

proven quartz
#

this is my first wipe

wind gulch
ember pendant
#

Raider farming can net 50k+ xp on labs if you have a great raid.

bold kernel
ember pendant
#

Can't reliably do that though. Typically 20-30k at most.

bold kernel
#

im pretty sure half the guys here cant even fight more than 1 scav at a time

ember pendant
#

Yet you are telling the level 3 his C4 armor is bad 😄

bold kernel
#

class 4 armor is bad

#

only good class 4 is trooper or brown bag rig

#

korund at the very least

wind gulch
coarse lily
#

Well I have only used Pacas so far so I trust it will be a considerable improvement over that

bold kernel
#

pacas dont stop shit

#

not even worth buying

#

just go without

#

and safe some money

limber notch
#

If I use an M1 what dura should I buy?

coarse lily
#

I just used the ones that they give u to start

bold kernel
wind gulch
bold kernel
#

but anything above 60

wind gulch
#

4 aquamaries

bold kernel
#

steel repairs really well

wind gulch
#

like 60 70k I think

#

at most 80k

bold kernel
#

^

#

if you have the ll for it tho

limber notch
#

25/63 = 60k 48/65=90k

bold kernel
#

save your self some money

#

its not that big of a deal

limber notch
#

And repair with mechanic?

wind gulch
#

barter it lol and you get a brand new one

limber notch
#

Yeah im just checking

#

I have a 65/65 M1

wind gulch
#

aquamari is 16k rn, GO BARTER IT

#

cheap af bro

bold kernel
coarse lily
#

Last question - what do you do with dogtags?

#

Is there any point keeping them?

bold kernel
#

its hard to explain what vendor to use when repairing

#

just use prapor

limber notch
#

mechanic repairs better for more i think

bold kernel
#

for 3 times the price

#

you might as well just buy a new rig...

limber notch
#

yeah

wind gulch
#

@limber notch did you buy the 25/60 for 60k?

bold kernel
#

if the dura lost is 12.5<, use mechanic

#

if it is 12.5> use prapor

#

for example, a 0/60 killa repairs anywhere between 58 and 59 with prapor

#

for a full repair

#

but a 55/60 repairs to around 59/59 with prapor

#

so ur losing a lot more when repairing less so just use mechanic

#

but if the armor is heavily damaged than use parpor

real birch
#

Got out of a raid and got my hands on some good shit

#

Is this a good ak build?

bold kernel
#

100 vert recoil

#

meh

#

i would re use it

real birch
#

Tried it at shooting range, any ideas on how to improve it?

#

Ima reuse it

#

I want to keep the scope x suppresor

bold kernel
#

i wouldnt change anything

#

did it come with mags ?

real birch
#

Is this good as well?

bold kernel
#

theyre decent guns

#

but ammo is more important

#

@real birch both guns there are pretty bad

#

you should never use a suppressed ak

#

theyre fine not the best

#

way too much recoik

real birch
#

Two people, by the looks of their state of gear + equipment it seems like they either suicided or killed each other

bold kernel
#

u can use em if u invest into good ammo

#

i would use a jmac rrd, or a srvv/antidote

real birch
bold kernel
#

that hk is a lost cause

real birch
#

Prefer to use suppresed during night

bold kernel
novel crow
#

anyone trying to run with me '

#

doing anything

bold kernel
#

no

#

like you wont be able to land a single shot cuz the recoil is so bad @real birch

real birch
bold kernel
#

that hk has really high recoil too, both guns are modded terribly

#

sell the part and make some money out of them

#

parts

#

or just run em if u have fun playing them

real birch
#

Both handle poorly asf

bold kernel
#

the ak is salvagable if u use a compensator

real birch
#

The Ak sounds beefy and I can handle it

bold kernel
#

parts*

#

that hk is GARBAGEEEE LOL

real birch
#

The HK, like the gun but it seems like it can be heavily improved

bold kernel
#

if you want to pay 200k sure

#

you need a 20" barrel, troy m-lok hand guard, cqr grip, moe stock, rubber butt pa

#

pad

#

plus either the thunder beast suppressor or the aac sdn

#

that'll make it almost meta

real birch
#

Damn I thought I got my hands on a good deal, wanted the HK since day 1

bold kernel
#

i need a bigger stash asap

#

i cant fit all my quest items

real birch
#

Can't sell it to other players

#

If you buy an item, bring it & die

#

Does it not count as found in raid?

minor coyote
#

as soon as you take an item into raid it loses the found in raid check

bold kernel
#

make money nad build your own hk

bold kernel
#

and*

real birch
bold kernel
real birch
#

I really want something to use during night time w suppresor

#

I ran w adar and it was GREAT

bold kernel
#

use use m4 instead of adar brother

#

its only 13k more expensive, has full auto and performs bette

thick mist
#

Why does Prapor just keep sending me random stuff in the mail?

real birch
#

Yeah realised how limited semi automatics are when I killed two out of the three man ontop of three story at dorms

bold kernel
thick mist
#

Oh nice

real birch
#

I shot em at stairs, but got rushed by the group alpha w ak & armor

thick mist
#

Was it the same last wipe? Don't really remember that

bold kernel
#

no

thick mist
#

Ah okay thought so

brittle echo
#

so i crafted a mag case earlier this week, filled it full of mags some with ammo, and took a bit of a break from the game for a few days. now that im back everything seems normal exept my mag case and all the mags are just gone

bold kernel
#

lol

#

they had a magbox rollback

#

invested into a lucky scav box i hope it was worth it

#

cuz there was a bug with them

brittle echo
#

i checked my ragman messages and i dont think i accidentally sold it, nor would the game let me if it had stuff in it

#

well what the hell dude

upper iron
#

When was rollback lol D:

bold kernel
#

yesterday

#

bsg told everyone to empty their mag boxes

#

cuz they were getting deleted

brittle echo
#

that was easily 700k + worth of stuff

bold kernel
#

who cares you can make it back in 2 raids

brittle echo
#

wtf kind of bullshit is that

bold kernel
#

its just a mag box

brittle echo
#

sorry im not level 30 i literally just got to the point where i can make some profit on my hideout

#

thats seriously messed up

upper iron
#

Huh really?

bold kernel
#

there wasnt a roll back btw

bitter lotus
#

anyone who can help a newbie with some runs?

bold kernel
#

no

upper iron
#

=D big trolly

brittle echo
#

so thats it i cant get a bug report reimbursment or anything?

bold kernel
#

no

#

bsg doesnt reimburseanything

brittle echo
#

i know theyve rolled back stuff like that in the past, like changing whats allowed inside what, been playing a few years but iv never had my stuff just straightup deleted from my stash...

bold kernel
#

lol

#

maybe u deleted it

#

by accident

brittle echo
#

i dont even want the mag case was jsut gunna stock 3 of em to sell as a sav box

visual garden
#

My magbox was fine

brittle echo
#

i didnt delete it by acident lmao

visual garden
#

all my shit is still there

onyx solstice
#

can anyone help me make money Im going broke and keep dying I dont know what to do

bold kernel
#

stash runs

onyx solstice
#

Really?

bold kernel
#

well if all of OUR mag boxes are still here but yours arent then its probably ur fault

#

the best way to make money is to run heavy armor and an automatic weapon

brittle echo
#

well ima report it anyways thats really messed up, wouldnt even be that mad but it was easily 300k in mags and ammo

visual garden
onyx solstice
#

that would be pretty good I added you

bold kernel
#

THATS NOT A LOT OF MONEY

#

CHILL OUT

onyx solstice
#

only if you want

visual garden
#

300k is litteraly chump change

bold kernel
#

300k is one half assed run

#

500k is one decent run

high escarp
#

do you guys have 3 or four ppl

bold kernel
#

500k+ is good run

high escarp
#

im looking for quick cash as well

brittle echo
#

wait so did anyone else even lose a mag box or did they just empty em?

bold kernel
#

NO ONE LOST ANY

bold kernel
#

ONLY YOU DID

#

LOL

#

this guy

brittle echo
#

dude you need to relax lmao

high escarp
#

lmao

bold kernel
#

no u do ur freaking out over "700k"

brittle echo
#

this is like the one place i can actually get info on this

bold kernel
#

im enjoying this a crap ton

upper iron
#

700k is a lot of money to new people why you shit on people like that

brittle echo
#

i mean kinda stupid to just depete stuff straight out of the stash just trying to understand if anyone else had it happen

upper iron
#

=D

brittle echo
#

your acting like a shithead

bold kernel
#

700k is 2 half assed runs

#

or one good run

upper iron
#

I mean

bold kernel
#

no ur just mad because you cant manage ur stash properly

#

you guys realize that

#

you dont have to be chad slayer 9000 to make money run

#

just grab a big bag and go on customs to loot some stashes

brittle echo
#

i dont disagree with that but when im dying in 70% of my runs to people with way better gear 500k takes awhile to get

bold kernel
#

or go interchange with a big backpack and loot oli, goshan and idea

upper iron
#

Imagine you include me when I have a fine stash/money I am just saying, 700k is a lot of money to some people =D

bold kernel
#

then avoid the people

brittle echo
#

and either way its not the value i just wanna know if other ppl had shit deleted

naive depot
#

500k is hitting oli and nothing else on interchange

brittle echo
#

and clearly not

bold kernel
#

no one had their stuff deleted afaik

upper iron
#

OLI even more profitable because of fuels, 180k POG

naive depot
#

@brittle echo oh you had a magbox disappear? that's fucked

#

@upper iron if you'll ever see them spawn again lol

#

i imagine you've tried restarting the game and your magbox is still missing? might have to make a support ticket then

upper iron
warm sentinel
#

can someone help me do a successful customs run

brittle echo
#

yea restarted a few times, made sure there want one waiting to be claimed in hideout etc

bold kernel
#

oli is stupid profitable rn

#

i havent done a single m oney run this wipe but i should try just to see what i get

potent jasper
#

what is a money run?

upper iron
#

Where you see how much money you can get

potent jasper
#

oh

upper iron
#

Loot only big PROFIT items, hear gunshots? Avoid. Hear footsteps? Hide

tawdry pollen
#

the ultimate rat strat

bold kernel
#

when you go into the raid with the specific intent to avoid players and make money

warm sentinel
#

anyone know the evacs in customs

upper iron
#

Yes

tawdry pollen
#

i do

warm sentinel
#

can someone com on a run with me

bold kernel
limber notch
#

Bro how many player scavs spawn in factory

tawdry pollen
#

a lot

wind gulch
limber notch
#

I killed like 7 and some guy came behind when I had no ammo

tawdry pollen
#

yup factory is full of player scavs atm

bold kernel
#

poop

tawdry pollen
#

i always get out before they spawn

wind gulch
#

always've been

bold kernel
#

nobody should ever be in factory long enough for player scavs to spawn unless they want to farm them

tawdry pollen
#

^

wind gulch
#

I've killed countless of player scav just as they spawned cuz I heard them

limber notch
#

I too was a player scav

#

I massacred my own kind

tawdry pollen
#

lmao

#

i just use factory scavs as fun pvp practice i don't expect to live usually

rose ingot
#

is it a dumb idea to go into a raid with only a ssh68? i dont have space in my stash for body armor

warm sentinel
limber notch
#

I made ez 80k-100k off a 2min factory scav run

tawdry pollen
#

i made 600k off one last night, heard a chad medding in bathroom and pushed him with my hunter

#

ez slick + altyn + vector

limber notch
#

Yeah ive had success with glock on factory

#

killed m4 and vector chads on 2 occasions

#

but the rest I have died

bold kernel
#

penis

tawdry pollen
limber notch
#

Also shotguns are crazy good in factory

tawdry pollen
#

yup

#

ks23 is my favorite

#

can oneshot anyone in the legs

limber notch
#

No idea what it is but I killed a pscav who had a shotgun and mowed everyone down with it till I ran out of ammo

bold kernel
#

best first map?

tawdry pollen
#

just take an mp153 with 8mm slugs into factory and aim for the leg

#

and customs

limber notch
#

On a different note I have about 30 bags inside each other where I store dog tags, its a pain to get to the last one

tawdry pollen
#

lmao thats the way

#

i have like 23

limber notch
#

I should sell a few tbh

tawdry pollen
#

how much money do you have

limber notch
#

260k

tawdry pollen
#

ya i'd sell some

limber notch
#

actually 10k

#

cos imma buy orb1 key

tawdry pollen
#

gotta save up for hideout

limber notch
#

My hideout sucks

tawdry pollen
#

it's super important to upgrade it

limber notch
#

Idk what to do with it

tawdry pollen
#

it will make you millions once you get bitcoin farm

limber notch
#

I got the stuff which gives me passive health and energy

#

and I want intel centre but i need intel

#

and to upgrade vents and stuff

tawdry pollen
#

reserve is good for intel

limber notch
#

which require bolts

#

and hoses

bold kernel
#

dont feel bad shadow i want alot of things on tarkov to but its gonna be awhile lol

limber notch
#

I don really know reserve other than White pawn

#

and that heli is a trap

tawdry pollen
#

youtube guides are your friend

wind gulch
# warm sentinel how

find maps on google, then when you going into a raid, read everything carefully

limber notch
#

Yeah

tawdry pollen
#

and offline raids

limber notch
#

I watched pestily cover reserve

#

Still gotta do it myself to learn

tawdry pollen
#

yeah try running around it offline

limber notch
#

Player and item Spawns are things I have to learn asap of all maps

tawdry pollen
#

you can make soooo much money on reserve once you know the layout

#

but if you plan on playing this game seriously you neeeeeed to get your hideout upgraded. bitcoin farm was my #1 priority this wipe

limber notch
#

Its amazing how experienced players have a purpose in raid. I just go wherever and pick up anything I see

wind gulch
#

lol

lofty sun
wind gulch
#

that's how you die and get nothing done lol

limber notch
#

Yeah

minor coyote
#

play however you want

limber notch
#

Explains my 20% SR

minor coyote
#

sr doesnt matter

#

just have fun

limber notch
#

also factory played a huge part in that

tawdry pollen
#

once you run a map enough you know the best spots to go based on your spawn

coral roost
#

maybe try plotting out ur raids on mapgenie

minor coyote
#

build cool guns n shit

limber notch
#

Turns out that uses money VERY quickly

tawdry pollen
#

haha yeah

coral roost
#

paca isnt really worth it

minor coyote
#

paca garbage on factory

limber notch
#

yeah I realised after my mistake

coral roost
#

it doesnt block much in my experiance

minor coyote
#

maybe for customs

tawdry pollen
#

yeah don't use a paca at this point it will barely save you from scavs

minor coyote
#

its good for shotgun scavs

coral roost
#

just go pistol helmet

#

aim for face

tawdry pollen
#

once you get ragman 2 the 50k lvl 4 armor is good

limber notch
#

I was doing it for pvp mainly. Now I know what I should be doing to some extent

#

Thats why I purchased ORB 2 (and soon ORB1) for reserve and kiba keys

#

Have yet to run kiba

lofty sun
#

Can i suppress the TT pistol?

coral roost
#

yeah @lofty sun

limber notch
#

died trying to find extract on reserve

lofty sun
#

hehehehe

tawdry pollen
tawdry pollen
lofty sun
#

what do I need to do so?

limber notch
#

Idk where manhole is

#

The D2 extract?

coral roost
#

@lofty sun what level are you

tawdry pollen
limber notch
#

Ive heard about it but idk it

lofty sun
limber notch
#

I was looking for manhole

coral roost
#

just focus on getting level 10

#

then the whole game is open to you

limber notch
#

I was near some gas station I think

tawdry pollen
#

the dropdown room is a loot room that you can get into for free

#

it has gpus and other good shit

#

really important spot to know on reserve if you get a good spawn for it

limber notch
#

Its called the Dropdown room?

tawdry pollen
#

rb-ak is the name of the room

limber notch
#

Ill check yt

tawdry pollen
#

and the key that opens it

limber notch
#

Ah yeah

#

ik which

coral roost
#

its usually very contested tho

tawdry pollen
#

ya always check that room if you get a spawn nearby

limber notch
#

You jump out a window right

tawdry pollen
#

yeah true very contested

coral roost
#

so be prepared to fight

limber notch
#

Yeah ive seen lupo do it

tawdry pollen
#

but half of it is hatchet runners so bring a shotgun for em and they'll drop easily

coral roost
#

reserve gives me anxiety

lofty sun
#

anybody wanna run customs with me, that knows the map?

limber notch
#

That is in black bishop building?

lusty glacier
#

does killing 3 scavs in 1 quest force me to restart if i drink water after the raid?

limber notch
#

Which is at the front of heli iirc

lusty glacier
#

cos right now it tells me to restart

tawdry pollen
willow dew
#

havent played in awhile and forgot where to get updated maps and ammo charts. can antone help me out?

tawdry pollen
#

mapgenie and tarkov wiki

limber notch

but not much
