rip
I tried... wasn't working I guess
screenshot?
LFG Newer player trying not to die
already died lol
all good. I didn't know how many options were there for practicing
for Signal quest which roof is the dish on? East or West?
@honest field No worries! I really just want to run with some other new people that way I don't get yelled at for doing dumb shit lol
if youre learning no one is gonna yell at your bro lol
Yeah I'm down. Which VC do you want to join?
Full
sometimes doesnt give you any notification that you found it either so make sure you check your tasks from completion
i dont have anything in my stash anymore, can anyone help a brother out
do some scav runs homie
its hard at first but then it gets easier ๐
ok
try to scav interchange, you can make good money while avoiding hot spots
and evacs are easy because they are always the same for both scav and pmc
or scav in and run to extract to keep the gear !
help plz
with?
thank yall alot:)
juist got out of a scav
got a ak something with a flashlight and a scope
how much do you get from selling bit coin to thps
like 420-470
Ok
what would be the best mosin ammo (7.62x54R) to kill killa?
SNB for sur
are you sure? i thought 7n1 was better than snb
7n1 does more damage but less penetration
your probally gonna wanna headshot him and 7n1 wont go through the faceshield
say i do want to kill him with snb where would i aim?
snb will go through all his armor
but headshot would be best because i dont think youll manage to hit him enough in the body before he rushes you down
how many headshots in the faceshield do ya think it would be?
with snb one shot should kill him
alright, thanks for the info
no prob
nice !
you can get alot of gear running to extarct with scav and even sometime a labs key card !
luckily no
i honestly do not know, it all looks right?
I followed every guide on google and youtube..
try restarting the game?
doing so now
like guides aside, it litterally meets all the requirments
no prob lol
what's a good timeline to go into woods and getting my quest done for supply plans
i feel like a lot of people rush mill for the boss
what do you mean timeline?
so i know at spawn a good amount of people head to mill to kill the boss
so i'm thinking like waiting till about 30 min left on clock to get in and get my stuff done for quest?
that should work, the cabin is on the outskirt of the mill so you could probally run in and get out easily enough even if people are nearby
ye, last time i got the doc but got sniped on the way out but i did it a bit earlier in the map
so i figured i would wait till a bit later
probally not a bad idea, like you said alot of people rush mill to see if stickyman is there and if not dip
gotcha
Do you lose maps if you die?
LF a friend , im fairly new.
LFG for Factory anyone down i am new
Veritas guitar pick you need for collector for kappa. If youre going for kappa keep it, if not sell.
Did they change the water filter unit so the water filter only gets used if its purifying water or did i level up a skilll or something for that?
how do i get 110 energy?
any low levels wanna play custom PM me
any low levels wanna play custom PM me
it says +10 maximum energy reserves but it's still out of 100 for me
tru
That usually works for me when i have a hideout glitch like that
any low levels wanna play custom PM me
it worked thanks
anyone on aussie servers wanna jump on woods with me and help me do introduction for mechanic and prapors search mission
im kinda new playing again after a year NA who wants to play?
advice on how to properly hatchet run
i'm broke and would rather not use my good shit on factory
whats the best scope to use on an sks with nightvision?
im in the same boat man its hard getting back into it ay haha
god damn this game is intense
I've only done 1 raid and I lost so much shit. note to self, never solo shit when ur brand new
died to a land mine?
do those exist
Yes, but they are almost always marked with signs
yep, except for the usec camp ones, fuck those
there was a sign, first raid ever and I forgot a flashlight. tried going right in front of the sign and reading it
didn't go well
bruh
how do I get with someone who can teach me this game
all the intricacies
how to not die immediatly to a land mine
you can either go to the LFG channel or sometimes here to have people help you
Check the Sherpa program or just ask here
This guy be playing woods and spawning at the USEC camp LOL
hm nice, thanks lol
It isn't like that on all maps, I promise =D
id help if it wasnt almost 4 in the morning lol
Sherpa program is people who got special ranks from BSG themselves to help newer players
epic
i need help , im new
do scav teammates get different extracts?
usually they have different, but often close by extracts
and every so often they can have the same ones
or have one extract in common with one being different
how 2 get a docs case
lf a experienced player to teach me or a noobie like me we can learn together
@bold kernel i'm down to suck together if you want
ok
hey does anyone know where scavs spawn in the beginning of customs?
many places
u should ussually loot until u are like dorms or gas station and look at the map or sum
ur doing the first prapor quest?
yea
i have 4/5 and now i cant find any
@hard arch add me
it took me until level 12 to do that one b/c i hate customs lmfao
yea
i just killed rooftop scavs
im so bad so its hard for me lol
easiest way for me
jeez
oh yeah
like ive gotten in offline mode found scavs then went to them in online and then no scavs
how to get a marked key?
just mod it, get the pt stock and some decent sights
1)check spawns on wiki 2)buy
sure
add me
i dont have weapons and i cant afford any though
i wanna buy it but i'd need someone to show me where its at and how tf to profit from it cause im broke asf
in a raid atm but i'm down to join after this @bold kernel
@hard arch bet just add me
If you are broke dont bother with marked rooms lol
lol
omg
yea its cheap but still, dont bother
i have one of those
my point is is that i have 600k and the key costs 599,999 lmao
it'd literally run me ddry
if i could sell it i would ๐
and you wont survive a single raid cuz you dont have money for gear and you will be just a loot delivery guy to someone
im lvl 3 tho
is it found in raid?
yes
ah good, keep it to sell
is factory key worth keeping on hand? i cba with exit campers and i wanna go to the other exits
if you play customs/factory then very much yes, it doesnt sell for much but is suuper useful
I had an rb-kprl key i found on a scav but i sold it for a mil, still second guessing me selling it because i probably could have used it for decent stuff considering its sale price
i have about 5mil in reserve keys i have not used yet. but i figured, i will eventually and then it will rake in the big bucks. so im keeping them in stash
depends how you fell on reserve its not an ez map
Just use a pistol and armor/backpack like 90% of people seem to talk about doing
you still have to know the map and have a way to deal with the raiders
Don't be silly, I don't need to know anything when I play with just a pistol because well, obviously I don't want to learn anything by playing like that :D
then someone will gun you down in no time flat, pmc or raider
so how long does it take for scavs to spawn?
Doesn't matter because I only use a pistol, I am a gamer
depends on the map
customs
Real gamers get hatchet kills ๐ค๐ค
ive seen them spawn as fast as a 1-2 min in
what if you dont have a hatchet?
Then you use a knife ๐ค
at ruaf?
then you are not a real gamer duh XD
Everywhere
then what about being cursed?
also i have a question how do i make more money with 4k roubles at level 8
scav
what about other ways
Go scav, go to interchange, clap 2 or 3 scavs underground, extract and sell the weapons and repeat a few times. Enjoy
more scav runs? but honestly thats the best way, maybe some stash runs on shoreline/interchange?
looks like i have to learn interchange
dunno how
well it really depends, i scav only on reserve and i can easly get even around mil a raid
actually i know the checkpoint extract and hole in the wall
how?
Or use the OLI area of the map loot that up, extract, takes only a few minutes.
the what?
1 mil a raid, show us dat stash $$$
The Oli area of the map the green side, has a lot of mechanical parts in it.
It's heavily contested right now because of fuel and filter spawns. Isn't worth it at the moment
ivested it in all the basic cases lol, bought all the non thicc cases
If you look a map up online it should be clearly labeled, it's pretty large
well does anyone want to teach me interchange though?
yea i knew what you meant after you said it
especially that 1 mil run
What kind of excuse is that :D
imagine not naming yourself in windows files
but fr though what's that run you do as a scav
imagine using windows for anything but tarkov lol
bro?
if you get just 1 or 2 raiders and sell all on flea especially mods you are making some serious bank
I'm level 8
Hard to see you making 1 mil a run with that stash but ye
and idk raider spawns in interchange
There are none
im talking bout reserve
Reserve and Labs have raiders
not 1 mil every single raid lol thats obvious, but like once every 3-4 raids
why don't you show us you doing it?
Hi, where can I find someone to help me get to lvl 10?
Do you really tho? Like in all honestly bro
just look it up on youtube, bunch of streamers even get like 3-4 mil scavs on reserve, that map can be crazy
Those aren't guaranteed or normal runs, they're like once every now and then lucky runs :D
yup, wasted a lot of money early wipe on those shoreline keys and gear for quests
does anyone know the selling power of the bitcoin to therapist?
you just gotta learn how to abuse raider ai and you will get the same results, check it on yt, im not flexing you can do it too, its crazy profitable
it was 550k yesterday
man having no money sucks
Thanks for the tips I guess :D
lol yea like that
if you kill glukhar and his goons you get 1,5 mil EZ
(but doing that is super not ez lol)
I still havent killed him a single time, started running reserve just this wipe
I don't think people saying that 1mil a raid is very realistic as scav on reserve
yep u do it just by killing raiders right?
You either have to hit every jackpot for loot or honestly check EVERY single option out
i had like 10k roubles then i found a graphics card as a scav on shoreline and then boom money
idk shoreline
best map
you gotta realise, scavs often have pk06s, 60k a sight, good ammo, sometimes over 1k a bullet, even a dumb roller that spawns often goes for 500k
I have a weather safe key fob r shoreline
In all honestly, sometimes the loot on reserve is utter garbage. My route is hitting pawn marked, straight underground to bunker then into queen and out th D2 extract to check for AESA
but I just don't know the map
Sometimes it's reversed based on spawn and in a different order but I hit those and making 1 mil a raid without ratting around isn't as easy as it sounds :D
I just want you to know I only play Reserve so everything you tell me I already know :p thanks though
decent run, if you want to go supper low risk buy an alpha, m9 and just sewer extract, mods and ammo from just a few buildings can make you 300-400k ez, not even mentioning batteries, filters and ofz
Hah okay, i was a Shoreline/labs guy last wipe, just a few ledx or looting the black keycard and killing a few raiders and you can make a lot of money real quick while still having fun
tbh you could just buy a thicc item case or drop some money on shoreline keys, get ledx for quests and make some more money that way untill you hit that lvl 35
I don't need one atm
yea but you will need it for that thicc quest for (and if you dont have you also want one for the med station lvl3 )
so who wants to join up with total noob here, guess the dcs I had yesterday were due to super heavy load on our home network thanks to netflix
anyone wanna go interchange or customs to get me some loot?
anyone want to help me start out? just restarted my account
LF someone who would hard carry me and show me reserve like if it was they're baby i got some keys but dunno where they go or how to extract
Is anyone else not gaining skill exp?
I thought this was normal and skills just level up super slow, but crafting's been stuck at lv3 for 2 days, with all stations running around the clock, except when I sleep
I'm lv30 with over 240 raids, but skills are all really low compared to others
You rat too much for your physical skills
except I don't...
crafting shouldn't be level 3 in 2 weeks of running things either lol
But what about your other skills
i can tell from your other messages, you really hate rats....
at an avg raid time of 7:22, tehre's no way I rat lol
They ruin the game tbh
That's because you have a 30% SR
You die fast I guess? Lol
lol yeah, it was like 40s until I started doing jaeger and prapor's quests
I can only tell you that strength and endurance level up by moving/being heavy D:
is anyone willing to teach me me interchange on reserve loot spawns, i am lvl 17 and got the game a month ago
au
i felt that... i started losing to much money then i resorted to hatchet runs
@upper iron could you show me some phys stats + KM traveled?
I have 480 km traveled
I am going to check if mine are higher :D but I only do a specific run on reserve and a bit of labs so mine might not be above yours even
although I guess my endurance is moving up not awfully
does anyone know what handguard fits on the 406mm ar15 barrel?
Naw i dont find them ruining the game at all. Its a playstyle that fits the world around it.
but other slills just don't move
That's because you are one buddy
Hey, is it worth to sell the RM-MP21 key?
I'm with meat on this one, it does suit the game setting, though I find it too boring lol
shhhh. but also its just a way people play
Where is k/m travelled
overall -> looting
Playing reserve only it's hard to find people 50% of the time ):
damn
No I played about 500 hours 2 wipes ago and that was it
you got longer life then what ingame raids go to
I played 30 hours of last wipe
you stay after the fact
and I played about 150? 200 hours this wipe =D
But I do spend a lot of time afk so I'd say 100 hours are afk hours :X
oh ok makes sense
my avg. span is actually like 30 mins, I do my loot run, try to find PvP then just leave if everyone is ratting ):
yeah idk how it gave you 55min average lol
Idk how it works that avg out =D Reserve isn't even close to being 55 mins so
and last raid I got clapped about 5 mins in fighting gluhar and the boys that seemed to be cracked out
the time average makes no sense
are there any promocodes i want to upgrade to edge of the darkness edition
Yes because sometimes it'll say like 1 min 30 seconds and other times it'll say like 1 hour lol
nope
your best bet is to wait for February 23rd
what's feb 23?
what's on feb 23?
Probably a sale
Defender of the Fatherland Day, they did a sale on that day last year.
How patriarchal
I think it's the day the Russian Civil War ended
how much of a disount will i get?
they usually never go above 20-25% for individual purchases
i kinda want to upgrade now
struggling with inventory space and sweaty grinds for epsilon are the most fun part of first wipe though D:
but it costs me 100$ since 22% vat in my country
afaik promocodes don't exist outside of gifted copies of the game that the devs occasionally hand out for events.
Tarkov is a good game, but not worth that full price imo =D
can anyone tell me what is the use of golden skull ?
you need it for a hideout upgrade
scav case @lean whale
it's also used for a couple of barter trades
is having all traders at or very close to level 2, at level 17 good progress?
Man I need to start doing Jaeger quests now ):
say bye bye to kda and SR for a while :)
I have 2 and im lvl10 so should i sell them or keep them
well you actually use shotguns so maybe you'll fair better lol
I'm still stuck on the 12 gauge headshot quest
spawn in the middle of shoreline woods, holding a shotgun, wearing UN TAR armour, while using no meds
or some stupid shit
Haven't even finished his first ones =] woods is a boring map for me
I have no idea how to play reserve so you got that going lol
all the other maps I'm fine wiht
it's 100 eur to upgrade to EOD for me
Reserve took me quite a while to get to grips to
hello, can anyone please help me with a shoreline task? i need room 306 west wing key its pretty expensive on flea
what server, hamster? I actually need some shotgun kills on scavs
It's only 70k
yeah :) thanks again lmao
we didn't make it out lol
i think i did and you didnt, you died around zb014 and i bolted lmao
oh true, works for me lol
I had no gear except an SV cus it was the no armour quest
well it is rather expensive for me, but i guess ill buy it
haha i basically never run armour anyway, too expensive, no idea how yall finance that
every run
bitcoins :)
oh yeah that does make sense lol
early game I mostly just made money of PVP in customs
Did you :p
yeah i left for two weeks and now everyone has faceshields lol, kinda tough
? Where are you guys finding these chads please
Altyn 
damn im jealous
I bought it for 90k so I will use it
90k for a c5 even if it weighs 13.5kg is nothing. I will use it for my fun run on Reserve with KS :D
welp off to do an interchange quest which ill definitely die doing, wish me luck
Enjoy
damn
when I was like level 8
My best run so far has been a Tetriz + AESA when it was 1.8mil =D
is living high is not a crime part 2 required for kappa
Only part 1
But part 1 and 2 are not a chain bizarrely.
Is the 9x21 SP13 worth anything?
need help getting good loot and leveling up
it's about 1k per bullet on the flea market
Yeah boi
I spawned, shot some dude in the head with sks
Boom. 3 10 round mags and 30 bullets extra of that stuff
60k in 5 seconds of gameplay ๐
you love to see it
Almost forgot, he also didnโt have his roubles for extraction in his safe container so 102k in 5 seconds
Almost 5
gotta keep grinding until 10, thats when you actually get to play tarkov
what quests do you have?
Still the first ones everywhere ๐
I need some screws for hemostatic for the salewas for the Doctor and 2 MP133โs for Prepor
Okay people, how did y'all manage to save for 3.5 mil rubles for stash upgrade?
I can't bring myself to save that much cause other hideout options + gear
Itโs not worth it to be honest
Just stack backpacks and put stuff in every container, think about what stuff you gotta keep and what can go
if you have a drivers license, and im not joking, it is more worth your time to sign up for doordash and make irl money to buy gamma. that takes way less time
I wish i was kidding
I wanna buy EOD, what should I know? In raid atm
i made 120 dollars in 2 days off doordash
lmao
it gives you a 3x3 secure container
max stash size
trader rep
and additional shit at beginning of wipe
@real birch biggest stash, some extra gear and Gamma container which is 3x3. Also your name is highlighted golden with a crown next to it
but if you wanna make money in tarkov just go to interchange and loot tech rooms
or make friends with some good players and run labs with them
if you can't do that just bring a backpack and a shotgun and loot stashes
Anyone down for a scav run?
Ehm... Do you want to teach me interchange?
Oh american
Nvm
Tarkov is such a whiplash, sometimes you feel like a god but today I play like shit
just use the vector then you always win
god i knew that gun was gonna be op the second they announced it
just tap heads
i mean i just use it lol
i've always been a 9mm simp
this just encouraged my bad behavior
Killing people in pvp is usually not the problem for me it's mostly pathing
im going to bed. if anyone on NA is new and sees this, message me. I can try to help you with something tomorrow
later gamers
I want to learn interchange [EU] anyone down to teach me and have a good time?
Clapping pistol runners :) Good job
@real birch Sure, Im consantly farming it right now. DM me if you wanna join
Looking for people doing woods Quests, I have to finally start doing Jaegers ones :( EU <-- I generally know woods if you need to do introduction and stuff like that
Hi, any groups I can join to run with and learn this game?
same
i have like 35 hours on this game and im still shit
@real birch im looking to learn that aswell
I would help but my motherboard killed itself
I'm looking for someone to help me learn the ropes of this game. - I'm coming from primarily a valorant/cs background. EU.
any promo codes that work i want to upgrade to EOD eddition
what wepaon would u reccomend for a begginer, econimically, like max 50k (lvl12)
EU lvl 9 customs tasks
someone wanna play? very new to eft dont really get it atm
damn my VAT is 22%
IEMAND NEDERLANDS EN WIL TARKOV DM MIJ๐ณ๐ฑ
lmfao how the hell do you get to bunker 0014 on woods
i felt like i was right there but couldn't see it
oh makes sense because it's underground lmao
I can't find any scavs on customs
I found more PMC's
Than scavs.
Pretty sure my 2 scav kills on customs are lower than my PMC kills on customs rn
theres pretty much no scavs on the red building side of customs
so cross over to ruaf roadblock and go near construction and the new part of customs and there youll find scavs
mfw load in, 9 seconds in i get dinked to the head and die
Anyone know why my game audio plays through to discord? I'm using a headset and mic.
IEMAND NEDERLANDS EN WIL TARKOV DM MIJ๐ณ๐ฑ
eng only
what the point of joining as a group when they just shoot you on spawn...are there no in game comms? if not..that sucks hard and i feel its ยฃ40 down the shitter.
play in the discord LFG
yes tarkovs lfg is just people looking to spawnkill you, that how you survive in mother russia
can someone with peacekeeper lvl 2 pm me
you actually wasted ยฃ40 on not finished, buggy and shitty game 
well i mean simple solution dont join randoms play with ur friend or play alone
^
this isn't a solution when some quests and objectives are pretty much locked by group play
so get friends
the real solution is to find people you can trust eventually through discord, and dont join random game invites pretty much ever
yeah, find trustworthy people
thats why i said play with friends
they dont have to be your best man at your wedding, just enough so they dont shoot you in the back
tip: be careful of anyone who mentions they need pmc kills
but if u go as a group then pmc kills dont count
they'll lure you to the spots and kill you just for your tags
@analog crag Why are you grouping with randoms who you do not trust in a game where you are nothing more than a lootbox with legs to people who aren't your friends
devil's advocate, none of my real friends play this game, way too hardcore
so yeah, its tough finding people
and the current system needs work imo
Solo is genuinely easier
Less confusion, more freedom
for some tasks yeah
but eventually there's a wall for solo
Just embrace your inner vietcong
There is no tactic too scummy
where you'll invest 10x resources and time for something that can be done very easily with a group
i guess that's just the design though ๐คท
can i ask what the task wall for solos are?
cos last wipe i got kappa almost completely solo
huge increase in difficulty on interchange and reserves
yeah im not saying its impossible
ah ok
but for newer players its rough
like myself, this is my first wipe, evel 28 ~250 hours
fun game btw
Yeah nah
Reserves, budget shotgun, target the legs
Be a rat
Hide near trainyard/bunkers
If you hear fighting, let them go for a bit then swoop in and be a vulture
Pop them while they loot or heal or just ambush
Legs are unarmored
interchange is tougher for me than reserve right now
Doesn't even matter if you die occasionally, one good run well more than pays for your kit
interchange is just group ater group after group
feels like im the only solo on the map
Tbh I refuse to do interchange unless I am absolutely required to
I hate that map
lol
yea
When it first got added the performance on it was so awful on my machine I'd load in 20 minutes late
it took me like 8 raids to finish big sale
was just going in pistol towards the end
are gpus really this rare ?
ive never seen one ever in raid
You need to search certain areas
If you search them, they're somewhat uncommon
If not, you will never find them
yeah, they're on like interchange tech stores and high tier rooms
Reserve has a few spots with really solid high tier computer stuff
do u pref interchange or tech room
Fuck interchange with a pole
Reserve is where the homies go
should i run reserve w/o backpack and cheese tech room for my 3 gpus ?
for the quest
is that quest even worth doing right now
seems like a waste with gpus being so expsneive and noones bitcoin farm is maxed out yet
dont i need it for quest progression
If you want to get quests done
Then yes
Just naked run the room and shove GPUs up your ass
and im kinda broke
If you want to also potentially dab on some people, bring a budget shotgun
Even a 133 with some buck can seriously get you loot
my 133 runs are kinda cursed
Most people do not have faceshields and buck to the face will still flatten your head like nothing
i only run into squads lmao
Failing that, legs
Grab some nades tbh
They're cheap and good to train Str with anyway
yeah i love running nades
I was mad as hell yesterday at the speed of progression
tech room is in the building infront of the heli right ?
But now I have fully embraced the life of fuck it, I will budget run reserve and just dab on kids
Yeah
Up the ramp thing
In the room
Past the sandbags
First door on right
Jump out rightmost window, go in floor below
Slurp
i lost a run with a money case trooper armor gen4 altyn decked rpk decked ak to rain
yesterday
๐
lost altyn + tier 6 armor to a scav 2 days ago
not found in raid so its whatever but that did not feel good
buckshot or magnum buck
magnum buck right
i dont know i hit next so quick
haha
i do know play scav though
Eh
Buck is enough
Even one pellet is enough to [head, eyes] someone
And it'll still delete legs if you hit them solid
just a-20
ap-20
why not
yo anyone wanna help me with bunker pt 2
what i'd do is top load a few rounds of ap-20
as in case
ap 20 is a slug no?
AP-20 is great
If you have access to the flea
ap-20 is amazing
And some cash
im lvl 21
but im broke rn
i pvpd for like 15 lvls
i think its only like 800 rubles ea
iirc
Then yes by all means run Ap-20 if you've got decent accuracy
But if you just wanna meme on people and still get loot
Run some buck or the 7mm buck
id rather meme on people
for the fun
lmao
Or if you REALLY want to just mess with people
Get flechettes and test those out
i never ran those
flechettes to the leg ?
Only barely less AP than slugs, and they won't one-pellet to the head
no 1-shot is no go for me
But if two hit the head on anything class 3, dead
Well
It fires eight per shot
So
oh
ye
tru
Like
i get what you mean
making that gpu money
To the chest, it may well take two shots
FUCK
i forgot to put on my rig
what a disaster
But a solid whack to the head will rip that shit off up to potentially L4
rigs are for chads, embrace your inner rat and make do with 4 slots
i have docs on me
fml
if theres more than 1 gpu
im dropping docs
nvm i cant i have marked key in there
what a disaster
customs is getting boring wanted to play reserve for a while but the extracts are intimidating
do peacekeeper quests on shoreline
lol eazy
Is crack a good place to go? I found a cms there once but nothing good other than that. I just went there for a Salewa but for that
Got that
It was unlooked about 20 mins into raid
Nobody was there and the scavs right over at construction new were still there
im not a big fan of it considering there's so much more loot and crack is kinda out of the way on most of my loot runs
but im sure there's a reason people go there
So it's not hih traffic?
no, it is high traffic
it depends
usually people rush it to loot specific items
any high tier spot is going to be a pvp spot at one point or another
Eh I mean there is a cabinet
i find in most of my raids that if it's not rushed at spawn it will usually stay clear because people assume the closest spawns have cleared them
@bold kernel you can use it for the first prapor quest
Mp-133
20 seconds into the raid
mf got quick peaked 3 times to the head
he even had a visor
I... could, yes? But I've already done that quest.
Yeah just to mention
Yes.
i couldnt see shit my visor was fucked
And also that the raiders are active, IIRC
cuz i shot him in the brain 3 times
lvl 47 geared out of the wazoo
he was mad
after that one
i feel like confidence is key in this game
Hi, can someone explain, why after I upgraded from base version I didnยดt get a bigger alpha container? Do I only get one when getting the biggest version?
confidence matters, but trigger discipline is also important
cant go for a shot every time you see a pixel
Each upgrade tells you what you get extra
yes, you need the highest tier one
You can go to the tarkov website and check
mh ok, thanks
Don't
Genuinely
Do not buy EOD
Unless you have already played for multiple wipes
i didn't because it seems lioke cheating
i want the real experience
It's a huge expensive that does little beyond saving you some grind
i like that it gives future DLC
Do not spend your money until you are sure you actually enjoy the game enough to make it a worthwhile purchase to skip a grind you've already done
but yeah, if i get it will be next wipe
Future DLC is nice, yeah, that's the only reason I 'd really want to do it until I've gotten the content done
fuck me i dinged another guy in the head but another guy with a visor came
388 dmg absorbed my armor
@bold kernel you should go learn the differences in ammos for example there are ones that pierce though armour more then there are ones that do higher flesh damage
i know ?
i wasnt saying that it was unvalid and that he shouldve died
he obv shouldnt
i just meant that i was unlucky
cuz he had a visor
while im running magnum buck
just dump in his chest then
i was dead after the first shot he was crouched on a staircase
chest shots really dont work there
k
i was dead instantly after my first shot
i wouldve had to crouch and shoot him i saw him too late
ahh tru
I just want the eod for the container and stash space honestly the regular edition is very limited. Especially without the cases and ammo boxes
Hey probably a stupid question but is it possible for someone to survive 3 fal shots in the chest at close range? I was almost certain i hit them all, but the person in question didn't die, and i was wondering if i was doing something wrong in regards to accuracy
ammo type
I need help, I don't know shoreline very well and I need to place markers on 3 tanks
Can someone help guide me and possibly play & have a good time afterwards? ๐
not sure, i was a scav
@gilded umbra https://tarkov.ascheron.dev/
Different ammo has drastically difference performance, and different armor affects this heavily. Range, gun build and bullet velocity, bullet type, shot placement, accuracy, and server latency/desync all have a large impact.
thatll do it then its all down to the ammo
If you take ammo that's not got high pen and shoot it against an L6 vest, it's going to just bounce like rain. If you get something with amazing pen, it can onetap even L6.
this whole game is based around ammo
It's kinda bullshit
And for an actually nuanced explanation on why, https://callmecasual.blogspot.com/2019/09/the-progression-system-in-escape-from.html
well some high ap will just go straight through and not do any flesh damage
7n1 will just go straight through
I mean if in this game you can survive 3 shots of .308 winchester to the chest bc of ammo type its a bit different than my other tactical shooters
depends his armour coulda just tanked it cause as a scav u get shitty ammo
You had a FAL, yes?
can I buy the Gzhel for "Sew it good" part 2 on the flea market?
yes
FAL uses 7.62x51mm Real Fucking NATO, which means it uses anything from
Go to https://tarkov.ascheron.dev/ and click on 7.62x51mm on the bottom left
@gilded umbra i half pack mags depending on weapon and mag size

If it was Ultra Nosier? Then some wet tissue could stop the rounds
first portion will be high ap and second high flesh
Ultra Nosler - flesh damage round
If it was M993, it'd clap someone in a Hexgrid in like 2-4 shots
But someone in that same Hexgrid you could have empty 60 rounds of Ultra Nosier into their armor and they'd just laugh
tl;dr: Ammo matters way way way way more than just about anything else
its the difference between losing and winning its like the most major thing
Thanks for the help
Oh and is this the right place if I'm looking for a group to carry me help me out?
what lvl r u
3
It can be
As long as you don't start screaming that we didn't magically know about your dog dying of cancer and that you have autism
Not really that kind of person
found a tetriz on my first time in tech
and a pistol runner was there before me
gr8
I do have experience in games like Dayz so I'm not completely clueless
I'm relatively newish but I have rapidly embraced the idea that just
FUCK honor
Be the dirtiest, scummiest rat to ever exist
talking about dirty and scummy
Peek holes in walls, lay bait, run super budget loadouts and clap sweaties with 366AP to the head
Why is red labs keycard so rxpensive help
Does it unlock something inside labs?
Yes
Red room?
My tactic currently is just to sit in a corner in factory, wait for everyone to kill each other, and pick up the scraps
Ok thanks can I put it inside secure container?
still die 80% of the time but if it works
lol i need to do this for the cowboy hat and ushanka quest
You can fi nd that info on the right side of the link, Simula
Top right
There's a little info panel
red has a bunch of rare loot
and its rare
It's not lost on use, right?
That's the thing I'm not seeing on the wiki
its not
Beautiful
What level are you currently? @bold kernel
Difference between ADAR and ADAR?
its infinite use and in red lab keycard room you can get up to 13 Ledx's they sell each for around 800k~
Currently a hair under 10 this wipe, got a bit of a late start, but I'd been doing mostly scavs so far to get back into the feel of it
Last few days I've started running Reserve and it has been going a hell of a lot better
tru
Like no joke at all
Customs was fun because it was what I was used to, but if I did good, it's like
Cool
I have a vepr and a shotgun
Maybe a mak
If I just ratrun reserve with nothing but a pocket full of shells and a shotgun? I come out with https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/521626362251837451/805100328125988874/3585ca5ee4b4ca7a5007aca2278d312a.png
So why in gods name would I keep running customs to try and scrounge up loot when I can just zero to hero
i loaded into the wrong fucking map
shoreline run
im so used to clicking customs
scope alone on the m1a was 800k mad profit
is it profit if you can't sell it
mechanic will take 600kish for the whole gun lol plus thermal is fun to use]
didnt have to pay for it so might as well use it
sold all the alytns for 100k to ragman and the h grid
m4a1 sold for 200k and 103 for 170
When doing papors search mission task once you have found the 2 locations do you have to extract or do you automatically complete the task?
oh ok thanks
I could definitely use your guidance a bit @bold kernel lol
Take anything I say with a grain of salt
I'm by no means an expert and this is just what's working for me so far
can someone help me that had mechanic level 2
Why tf can I never see people I always just get one shot and a never see anyone its so fucking annoying
I need help with ammo again
7.62x54R SNB, 5.45x39 BT, 5.45x39 US and 5.56x45 55 HP, 7.62x51 TPZ SP
Which one should I sell to vendors and which should I keep for flea market
Believe me Iโm still new af any partner is helpful while Iโm learning @bold kernel
@eager sigil https://tarkov.ascheron.dev/
Thanks!
can someone help me that had mechanic level 2
everyone is just chilling in corners in their rooms on reserve
holy shit
u cant go anywhere without checking everything
Are you sneaking?
where is the best place to get gpowder?
anyone willing to quest on shoreline? I am trying to do the punisher part 1 quest, im not very familliar with the map
how did I die to the same guy 3 times in a row in factory?
I joined a new game straight away....
can someone help me I'm level 6, have know idea where the good loot spawns on customs, and I only have 25k roubles left and almost no gear
is this out of stock, for good ?
because every time when i check it
is out of stock
@lofty sun have you been spending roubles on gear?
im only level 3 lol but i got like 250k more rouble from what i started. i used the loot i got from scav when i extracted and used it in pmc
no, just sells out quickly. certain items are real tough to get if you dont time out the restocks
yeah
fast mt, team wendy exfil, for helmets that support comtacs, altyn, maska 1ch for full protection
can someone help me earn some cash? ive managed to blow through all mine waaay too fast
time to play very safe on both scav and pmc. focus on loot, avoid as much combat as you can, and only do pistol runs on your pmc for now
thinking about buying my first THICC weapons case... any reason I shouldn't? I'm lvl 35 now, about 9.4m in stash atm
my advice to metal applies to you as well ha
yeah i struggle with extracting anything out even when i play safe
you get one through quests, but you can certainly grab one now. make sure to confirm if the barter or the purchase is cheaper based on current market conditions
keep running stuff until you find guns that work for you. m4s, vectors, mp7s are all pretty meta and easy to control
i wanna run rpk
also are server connection issues common?
vss rpk are good too
yeah - its important to find setups that you can run thru vendors
i wanna run this
thats nice and pricey
idk i never had a problem with gear fear
i like running geared
and if i die i just make my money back in 2 loot runs
trying this
otherwise go nuts with that
Can you top load the t5000 like the SKS?
theres an argument to using gen4 assault over full kit**
not sure - if you have gun range you could try it there
ight
i have no clue on how to find jager in woods
going slick then
theres a map for it in the wiki
@weary inlet using wiki is a must for this game
the argument against gen 4 full is you're wasting durability protecting your arms, leaving the armor less durability to protect thorax
Or your at a huge disadvantage
it looks vague in the flea market menu
cant sell items from traders
thru fence no ?
not really
w/e ill run
not predictably
the angled grip
ye
or a diff rk
ight gonna run dorms with this
ah fuck i forgot laser / flashlight
@cosmic tinsel is insuring this loadout worth it ?
this game can be so shit why doesent it let me reload? like ever
i never had problems with reloads
i click r but it doesent work i have to do it manually
its been like this for a few days now
and it just gets me killed everytime
because i have to go in inventory and 'Unload' then put the mag in while the other person is pushing me
i think so. i get more stuff back than i expect
i insured my bp and gun
yeah thats fair
theres always a chance you die to a scav headshot in the middle of a field, die in water, die in a bush and nobody finds it after the fight
always a chance the dude that kills you gets killed before he can get to you
does alternating the crafts in the hideout increase skill gain
IEMAND NEDERLANDS EN WIL TARKOV DM MIJ๐ณ๐ฑ
nah i got fucking
dcd
well thats annoying
well not fully but i couldnt move and i couldnt stop any animation
how does the pouch system work?
Hi, I just hit lv. 10 and unlocked flea market I have about 900k roubles should I invest in my hideout early on or?
anyone want to squad up
I'm up, I'm looking for a squad that can carry help a lvl 3 out
I have experience in other tactical shooters like dayz so I'm not completely clueless on the weapons department
i dont understand this is my third wipe am i supposed to have fun and die in raid and have a high kd with low survival rate or am i supposed to rat around and just play a loot simulator
the answer my friend is do both simultaneously
@alpine salmon Rat till the bitcoin farm and chad it after. That's my plan at least
lol
It can be anything you want it too be
Stop thinking Linearly and think Quadratically ๐ค
love it when you extract and then you get the error message and boom all your loot gone lmao
Oof
I ended on a bad note last night, might give interchange a few more runs today
I want those 25 scav kills
someone pls answer this
What do you mean by pouch system
like i think im just unlucky
ah yes you shove loot in butt and it stays there after dying
Anyone willing to help a lvl 7 noob?
like how does the pouch in general work
So anything you put in there stays with you if you die and cannot be looted
shove loot in butt and stays there until you take it out and cant be looted
Do you mean the secure containers?
yeah pretty much
so like a small unlootable backpack?
Yes
yes
