beginners-assistance

[manic horizon]

But yeah, pestily does a lot of helpful guides and the raid series is brilliant, even for an experienced player, however I would say focus learning some maps first

[chilly plume]

learn customs first

cause you have to do customs first

[manic horizon]

Move slow, listen a lot to what is going on, learn when to run and when to fight

Then focus doing some quests to level up

And scav whenever you can

[torpid summit]

"move slow" could you elaborate? I have had a couple instances where I have been crouch + walking and I still get prefired on factory

[manic horizon]

Ahhhhh, don’t play factory lol

[torpid summit]

it seems like even at the slowest speed people can still hear u occasionally

[manic horizon]

They can, I mean don’t sprint around less a headless chicken looking for fights

[torpid summit]

right

[normal cloud]

ive been trying to do the mechanic gunsmith pt1, can someone tell me what i did wrong here?

[torpid summit]

how about using grenades? I was playing customs earlier and tried to throw a nade through a small opening and ended up killing myself like a dipshit

[drifting jolt]

tarkov'd

[chilly plume]

@normal cloud replace plastick forestock with beechwood and use a sprut mount

and you can get rid of the grip

[normal cloud]

@chilly plume ok, thank you

[silver hornet]

that's typically how it goes for this chat

[red folio]

grenades in this game are probably the most realistic I've ever seen in a vidjagame

[wind gulch]

really, like how they always bounces to the left?

[silver hornet]

you shouldn't able to throw grenades as fast as you can in this game

[chilly plume]

@normal cloud tell me if it worked for u, should do if you did nothing wrong

@fossil quest best loadout at your level is sks with ps ammo from prapor

and if you want armor its paca and ssh steel helmet with headphones, from ragman

[upbeat elk]

bro, literally every question youre asking here can be found in a single video. Its way easier to do research yourself and then ask the details later. It applies to everyday life situations as well.

You want us to teach you the game, that requires tons of hours to completely understand.

[spring basalt]

any tips for running labs online for the first time

[chilly plume]

sks with ps ammo is really good for low levels, can ez tap people

[normal cloud]

not enough ergo

[chilly plume]

show me the setup

@normal cloud can you screenshot what u did

[upbeat elk]

For the mechanic quests you can check youtube videos. Tons of them explaining how to get the cheapest setup.

[drifting jolt]

dont die...

[smoky wing]

dont die

lol

[somber barn]

Dont move out into the keycards areas if u can help it, is what i am hearing

just go right to exfil

[lofty moss]

Does an LFG type thing exist? Solo is fucked

[somber barn]

#pvp-lfg

[upbeat elk]

Yeah, just scroll down a bit

[drifting jolt]

game is better solo....

[upbeat elk]

Just below beginner assistance voice channels

[chilly plume]

@normal cloud my setup works perfectly so your doing something wrong

[drifting jolt]

*you're

[somber barn]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Gunsmith_-_Part_1

[lofty moss]

Cap this shit sucks solo

Especially as a new

[drifting jolt]

nah, solo is best play

[upbeat elk]

Id argue that duo is best

[lofty moss]

I have no clue what I’m doing I need another

[somber barn]

as a new player this game holds back nothing, for starting i found groups more fun

[normal cloud]

this is what i did, not enough ergo for the qyest

[somber barn]

what is that light

[normal cloud]

flashlight

[drifting jolt]

worry about that questline later...

[chilly plume]

@normal cloud use ncstar laser

[somber barn]

just look at the wiki page it shows it in picture

[normal cloud]

now it works

[chilly plume]

there u go

[upbeat elk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3WQj81GbpE
There, please just use youtube enxt time. Way faster/easier.

[somber barn]

why would you waste 3 minutes of your time, i get you trying to promote you buddies youtube.

[chilly plume]

i was boutta say, i have no idea what your doing wrong because thats the exact setup i used and the exact setup in the wiki and everything

[somber barn]

just look at wiki it says it and you done

[chilly plume]

but turns out it was just the laser

[upbeat elk]

Waste 3 minutes looking at a video, or waste 10minutes in discord?

[somber barn]

doesnt he say he need a laser on it anyways?

[chilly plume]

stop arguing over it anyways, he did it already

[somber barn]

naw i just wondering why he put a flashlight, i thought the request was for a laser on it

[chilly plume]

he was just using a flashlight instead of laser that was all

he replaced flashlight and it worked

[upbeat elk]

I mean, im not arguing. Im just explaining to him that its so much easier watching a guide. It takes way more time to discuss it in discord.

[bold kernel]

anybody wanna help me

all the vcs are full

[chilly plume]

its easier to look at the wiki than do either of those @upbeat elk

[upbeat elk]

Probably true for most people. I didnt even know that the wiki has the info, but some people find it easier that someone explains it to you in voice/video than text.

[sage raven]

im tring to find a group to shouw me through the new maps havent played in a min, this the right place?

[chilly plume]

eh doesnt matter anyways, as long as you get the info one way or another

@sage raven go to LFG

[upbeat elk]

I guess yo could do it here and in LFG. Altho, LFG has a tougher time when it comes to completely new players imo.

[bold kernel]

[cinder hawk]

Which craft should i be doing with the scav case?

[kindred coral]

I need someone who can help me get to lvl 10 currently lvl 9

[bold kernel]

Kill people make money. Download trkov maps on your phone look up YouTube videos

[slow bone]

the small sicc case cant be bought from the flee, right?

[cinder hawk]

Correct

[slow bone]

guess im buying docs then

[plain sentinel]

can some one please explain to me how is this being used or for what ?

[wind gulch]

any tactical device turned on will improve your hip fire accuracy

[cinder hawk]

It's a laser sight. It adds a laser that will shine on the wall or an IR search light

[brave wagon]

You slap it onto a rail and activate it with T

[cinder hawk]

When you have it on it increases your hipfire accuracy

[brave wagon]

CTRL + T to change laser

[cinder hawk]

^

[wind gulch]

this one will still conceal your position and give the extra accuracy, rather than a flash light/laser

[brave wagon]

flashlights do give the same benefits as the laser too

if you're thinking about running a flashlight instead

[plain sentinel]

what is IR search light

[cinder hawk]

(but only if the tac device is a laser/flashlight. If the tac device is ONLY a flashlight it wont give the accuracy bonus)

its an infrared flashlight basically. It doesn't really have any "real" use in this game at the moment, but due to a bug with the way tac devices work, it gives the accuracy bonus of a laser so its very useful to use because you basically can't see it, but it gives you the extra accuracy

[red flame]

You can barely see it with and without night vision

It's a red light of sorts

[cinder hawk]

Yeah

It should be bright in night vision and almost invisible without, but currently its just almost invisible in both lol

[plain sentinel]

okay i got it thanks to eveyone

[cinder hawk]

np

[plain sentinel]

oh I got one more question is there a different between red and green laser or personal pretense ?

[cinder hawk]

just preference

[plain sentinel]

thx

[torpid summit]

im not level 10 yet how much does a plague mask for for on the flea market? is it worth holding onto rather than selling to one of the dealers?

[flat linden]

Is there any way to counter the awful de-sync ?

[hot osprey]

Hi guys, is there a guide somewhere on on what the various bullet acronyms stand for lol?
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics like I see this, and as I've been mostly using 5.45x39 guns (AKs I guess?), I've mainly stuck to BP/BT ammo for its price-to-green-squares, so if I find 5.45 in a raid, I usually leave it if the letters dont begin with a B
but then for example we go to 9x18 which seems to be mostly trash but look at those acronyms lol
Are the acronyms/names (e.g. "BT", "BS", "gzh", "PSO") based on irl things? just a bit confusing to look at and sort through without referring back to the wiki page lol

[short solstice]

[surreal dagger]

is something wrong with the fela market? every time i buy something the roubles go down but the item doesnt appear in my stash?

@half jackal

Bunker Part 1

It doesn’t lead to much and isn’t required for Kappa

[sour heron]

hola

[cyan drift]

True but i just wanna level up by doing quest

[half jackal]

Did you do gunsmith yet?

[glad sky]

as a beginner to this specific game, which pre-order version should be purchased?

[half jackal]

That will boost you from 20 to 30

[cyan drift]

only to the m4

im need level 18 to do the next one

[half jackal]

@glad sky buy the base game, you can always upgrade later for the price difference

[glad sky]

10-4 thankyou

[half jackal]

And it’ll let you know whether you enjoy it or not without spending $150 or equivalent

They also have 25% off sales occasionally, so it will save you some cash if you do decide to go all out

As you can choose to upgrade during a sale and still get the discount

usually

[mint frost]

i legit do not know what im doing

[sour heron]

that's cool. welcome. You must like hardcore games like this or Rust etc. Any experience?

[mint frost]

on rust?

[sour heron]

A game like EFT

[mint frost]

yeah i have 170hr on rust

[sour heron]

Cool. What made you decide to get EFT?

[mint frost]

It looked fun and i like hardcore games

[naive depot]

i guess fun is a word you could use for this game 😂

[sour heron]

Is your SCAV run available to run. Those are nice cause you can go all in as a SCAV and not risk any of your own gear. Just pull up a map of the map you would like to run. Maybe on a 2nd monitor?

Cause You will need to know Your "Extraction Points" we call them....

[mint frost]

yeah i can run scav now

[sour heron]

first order of business is choose a map and pull it up on the web. for example. I am learning Customs now. https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/customs

[olive turret]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdDX6erXuaQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2LuRc9VuFM these two vids are pretty decent explanations this game has a huge learning curve and will kick your shit in

[sour heron]

^^

[mint frost]

k thank u guys

[sour heron]

np. keep asking. The game does not have the traditional Map key to pull up in game. that is why you gotta kind get oriented on one. cause you need to know where your going.

[spring talon]

yoinks

And i just got the other key from gunsmith

[blazing heron]

isnt this pretty good trade cuz you can get paracords from lavatory and nails in oli or no?

[lunar sage]

Look at the cost/time, but SICC case is fantastic no matter the cost.

[blazing heron]

paracord are 80k

s

nails 25k

but i often found nails

and both of tapes

[spring talon]

yes

I found all of my paracord

theres a few spawns on reserve

its alot of money to get that many paracords

[plucky heart]

there is also two beige shelves by the entrance facing the camp where they can spawn

[sour heron]

What is the best thing for Heavy Bleeding? I think I got my arm blown clear off.

[kind minnow]

im lvl 5 i need someone to play with me and teach me the game EU

[sour heron]

I am lvl 5 US. I can help if you have a question.

[sudden anchor]

@sour heron hemostat

3 charges for heavy bleeds

[sour heron]

Okay tyvm

[plucky heart]

likely you only have the esmarch available to you early level, they are one time use.

[tardy verge]

as a level 5 hemostat will be hard to come by, for now buy tourniquets from therapist, they look like red donuts

[sour heron]

okay cool.

I will make sure to bring them in my PMC raids

[sour barn]

where's the gold pocket watch located? is it the truck in factory shacks?

[tardy verge]

i bring two each raid before having access to hemostat

cuz heavy bleed sucks

[plucky heart]

Truck cab in the "bones" area of customs

[winter raft]

customs in bones

[sour barn]

hmm where the hell is bones

[tardy verge]

so like

[tardy verge]

it's near warehouse 17

[sour barn]

ty

[plucky lion]

im srsly struggling on that quest everytime im getting killed by high tier players

[winter raft]

that's just customs in general

[tardy verge]

dunno why high tier players are there tbh

[winter raft]

you have to embrace the way of the rat

[plucky lion]

its so annoying

i died 7times today

[sour heron]

😄

[plucky lion]

and still dont have it

[sour heron]

I have heard the term.. what is the way of the Rat?

sneak up on fights and take their stuff?

[tardy verge]

rats are players who avoid combat and focus on loot

[winter raft]

it's more nuanced than that

yeah it's the idea that winning fights doesn't matter because if you die a raid is worthless

every new player should be a rat until they learn the game

[tardy verge]

rats tend to make big bucks

[sour barn]

me too 6 times i row now

[raw sapphire]

whats the diff between puting 1 and 2 fuel into generator

@tardy verge can you help?

[agile raft]

am i missing something or is this money printing?

[blazing heron]

2 power cords for 8 wires you make 60k profit lmao

[plucky heart]

are you at the stash screen? or scav transfer

[final geode]

no stash

[plucky heart]

then you shouldn't lose anything, go ahead and restart.

[final geode]

oh ok cheers

[plucky heart]

it will just reset the state to where the items where previously located, ie on your body not in your stash like you were trying to do.

[final geode]

i think one of skier tasks is bugged for me

its the "whats on the flash drive" quest

I have 1 flash drive in my stash but he doesnt wanna take it

and yes i have it found in raid

[nocturne relic]

is it in your stash or on your person?

cause it has to be in the stash to give it to them

[buoyant shale]

its in my scav box

in my stash

[nocturne relic]

take it out

maybe

[buoyant shale]

didnt work

[plucky heart]

can you take a screenshot of the usb?

[buoyant shale]

its above my scav box

[bold harbor]

= lv 43 300pmc kills 9KD. will help anyone with anyquests loot runs just DM me. gotta be chill and want to learn =

[plucky heart]

peculiar, have you tried relaunching the game?

[proud river]

can anyone help me do money runs? i can do any map PM me (NA)

[strong jolt]

@sour heron FYI you can get a salewa craft started and then turn off your generator and it will still craft, but will take a lot longer. I seem to remember this being good to do overnight.

[buoyant shale]

yea many times

[raw sapphire]

does durability of medical items matter for med case trade

[plucky heart]

Try and clear the cache using the launcher and see if the issue persists. It's not clear why that is not letting you turn the item in

Ive had that issue with items like guns needing to be complete before you can turn it in, but not a singular item like USB.

[buoyant shale]

i am suspecting that it might be that i need to just find a flash drive

not hand in

but im not sure

cuz that what it says on the task description

[plucky heart]

negative, for that quest you must find two and turn in two.

both found in raid.

[buoyant shale]

thats crazy so im fked basically

how do i clear cash

[strong jolt]

@buoyant shale sorry if I missed some details but I think for that quest you ned to have both

before you can turn them in

if you're trying to just turn in the first one on its own

[buoyant shale]

no I already turned one i think

[buoyant shale]

^

[strong jolt]

ok

[buoyant shale]

it says 1/2

[haughty tulip]

Damn, lagg is a killer today

[plucky heart]

@strong jolt did you have to do that?

[haughty tulip]

You die and don't even get shot

Then you hear the bullet as your screen goes black

[strong jolt]

I remember having to do it for some quest, I think it was that one

but it could have been the other flash drive quest

[plucky heart]

Yeah you just jostled some brain cell in my head where i remembered having to do that

cant remember if its that one, second please.

"You must have both flash drives before you can hand them in to Skier. They cannot be handed in one at a time, unlike many other quests. "

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/What's_on_the_flash_drive%3F

@buoyant shale

[barren trellis]

if u die and lose quest item, can u quit the quest and start it again to get the quest items?

[strong jolt]

yeah so it's weird you were able to turn in 1 on its own

[plucky heart]

He wasn't able to, it is just showing he has found 1 in raid

which is the one in his stash

he needs to find the second one, then he can turn in.

[strong jolt]

ohhhh

yeah that's it then

[plucky heart]

depends on the quest, for most if you die with the quest item the state is reset to prior to collecting that item. meaning you will need to collect it again when attempting the task

[barren trellis]

i mean like, they give me a quest item outside of the map. and i have to bring it to shoreline

"fishing gear" quest. gave me a sniper and leatherman. i got murdered need to get another

[plucky heart]

if you die with that item, ie the sv98 you will have to replace it if it is not placed.

once it is placed, you are safe.

[strong jolt]

I don't suppose there is a list of which items are considered "common," "rare" and "super rare" ? for this:

trying to maximize my chances of getting shroud mask and I don't know if it's rare or super rare or what

[blazing heron]

i am a damn proud rat

[plucky heart]

I took a quick glance around and can't seem to find any info right now, apologies.

[strong jolt]

np thanks

[bold kernel]

Why the fuck do I keep getting dissconected from server? Just fully kitted up with my best stuff, and disconnected as soon as I get in. Every time I reconnect same thing

so frusterating

[buoyant shale]

thank you i think u right

[raw sapphire]

on the laucnher look at the servers you are using and tick only the ones with low ms

otherwise its your connection

[olive turret]

@bold kernel dont auto select servers and dont use chicago server

[raw sapphire]

it used to connect me to us even tho i am eu when i turned automatic on

[sour heron]

okay thank you. I will do that.

[tribal grotto]

can anyone help me run xp and tasks

[grave relic]

I tried doing the sherpa thing but never heard back, are there people that like to help new players in game?

[plucky heart]

this is a place to get some help. any questions you have?

[grave relic]

I was hoping to play in game with someone. Bit of a guide?

[plucky heart]

Yep that happens as well, most people just say what region they're in and what they need help with and people reach out as far as I understand.

[strange knoll]

Need more beginners rooms lool

[plucky heart]

^ big time

[grave relic]

Im in the NorthEast of NA, just want someone to either learn with or someone that likes playing with new players.

[strange knoll]

i want to learn

[grave relic]

I lost all the shit that came with the version I bought in the first raid lol.

[plucky heart]

that happens.. haha. I recommend spending time learning the maps in offline mode to get a general understanding of how to get around and get out.

[grave relic]

I did do that, played a bit of offline, I guess I just like playing with other people rather than solo raids

[plucky heart]

I feel ya brother stick with it, im sure someone will pick ya up.

[vernal rain]

is there a reason why i cant buy stuff from fence ?

[olive turret]

its better if you dont buy from fence since he scams on most items but do you have fill items check marked on bottom if you're buying from dealer screen?

or is it just bought before you can buy it

[lone drum]

If I just need to kill scavs on custom, should I YOLO it or use serious gear ?

[bold kernel]

you can probably just do it with a glock and a couple mags tbh

[naive depot]

bring whatever you're comfortable with that'll let you kill things

[crude orbit]

is the "ir" just bullshit?

[sour heron]

is there a penalty for leaving a raid? it kept erroring.

Reinstalled my game on my main SSD.

Hopefully get very fast game spawns now

[gritty lance]

anyone willing to help a homie out with aquarius pt.1

[delicate egret]

Only penalty is losing your gear

[gritty lance]

I dont have the key, and ive been trying to get the mission done with a friend who has it and it isn't working out too well

[sour heron]

I love this game. Have not been back to Rust in over a week lol

[naive depot]

on loading map yeah it's normal

[crude orbit]

where to find 3m

[gritty lance]

the white armor?

most scavs have it, I run customs and I see it a lot, it's not as hard as it seems. tbh I need the toz I already have the armor

[crude orbit]

i find alot of toz, i've had multiple FiR 3ms before but didn't know to save them

[fair valve]

Anybody have the link to the sherpa discord? Need some help...

[jolly lily]

I was watching pestily and he's said thiers a wipe Thursday is he trolling ? or is it legit?

[grim oak]

prob trolling

unless they release streets on that date

last wipe was 2 months ago

bruh

[crude orbit]

oh

cant link it oof

[gritty lance]

nice link

[crude orbit]

ill dm u

[grim oak]

!sherpa

theres a command

/sherpa

[crude orbit]

the bots been busted pretty sure

[grim oak]

wich sends the link

oh

[crude orbit]

its aight i just dmed him it

[grim oak]

nice

[storm slate]

/sherpa

!sherpa

No there isn’t

[grim oak]

There is

the bot is down

dude youre a smartass

[jolly lily]

The link to shepra disc is pinned in beginner info the channel above this one

[strong jolt]

Is 1 headshot scav kill enough for survive status these days?

or do you need 2 scav kills

[hearty sonnet]

since when does ps go through level 4? I have gotten killed thru level 4 helmets 2 times this wipe because of ps scavs

got hit a single time on my Zsh and it kills me

top of the head and it was full health

[olive turret]

@strong jolt 1 scav headshot and loot iirc or 2 hs iirc

[strong jolt]

ok thx

gearing up to do the guide so I'll know soon lol

[grim oak]

if you kill a scav loot him that shoild be enough

if there was a scav theres loot nearby worth checking

[vernal rain]

is there a reason why heating pipes didnt work as an extract

?

[bold kernel]

was it on the list?

[buoyant shale]

so you know where u can get outside the map and get shot by scav snipers outside the map (for example, in the bridge in woods).. so my friend died barely outside and we have a meme to collect each others dogtags, is there a way for me to go get his dog tag without dying?

he is kinda behind the rock

[coral kiln]

UNLESS the meme is to die for a meme let him be

[buoyant shale]

the meme is who can get more dogtags of the other one

its the most valuable item in the game

so what u r saying is there is no way?

[crude orbit]

you can do it but you'd have to be fast

[olive turret]

@vernal rain was heating pipe in your extraction list?

[bold kernel]

Whats a good cheap laser that improves hip fire accuracy, the NcSTAR Tactical blue laser LAM-Module?

Does it actually improve hip fire accuracy or just visually help?

[sharp hornet]

Whats a good budget loadout?

[wind gulch]

it does improve, you can try it in hideout

any tactical device that can be turned on helps

[formal fractal]

can anyone help me on woods doing some quests?

[worthy timber]

Anyone need another guy? I’m somewhat new to the game and I’m looking for someone to chill with

[upper iron]

No, because people can see the blue laser :D use the Perst-3 or whatever it's called, it's like 13k and it's IR

[upper iron]

All lasers improve hip fire accuracy and where you are aiming, if you use IR then it's a lot harder, but people can't see the laser. For example, with IR, you can hardly see it, but just know your bullets (with low enough recoil) are going to go where the front of the barrel is

[bold kernel]

Looking for a duo or more to bang out some quest

[tepid fossil]

Pinging me at 6 am in the morning whatshu wun

[olive turret]

@tepid fossil

i was playing with peavy cinci and panman and we were talking about you so i felt like pinging you

even tho it was early morning

[tepid fossil]

EARLY MORNING

WHY

[olive turret]

@tepid fossil

[tepid fossil]

[olive turret]

[dense niche]

new to the game need peeps to play with and learn from

[gritty lance]

good luck

[tidal hawk]

Bro what do I do I don’t even have enough money for healing myself

Scav runs arnt working out

I’ve already reset profile

This game is so hard

And I need my gas container

What do I do?

[upper iron]

Go on a scav run, go underground interchange

[bold kernel]

anyone wanna help me and my brother on customs we are fresh spawnies just goingin for loot and kills and quests hopefully

[upper iron]

clap 2 or 3 scavs, extract, sell everything, now you have money

[bold kernel]

heslevel 2 im level 4

[gleaming merlin]

anyone wanna help somewhat newbie ive played and know controls and how to shoot of course only thing for me now is map layouts

[valid folio]

hello

[nocturne ice]

What AKM do you not need a mount for a PSO sight, the one where you can just put it on?

[valid folio]

why gunsmith part 11 dont accept it: ??

i don't get it.

[uncut night]

@valid folio Put the folding stock on and unfold it

[spice gate]

Could anyone take me through a woods run to find jaeger camp and to do Search mission from prapor?

[valid folio]

@uncut night i can't unfold it

wtf

[uncut night]

Do you have the folding stock on it?

[valid folio]

VAL stock?

[uncut night]

Yeah

Make sure it's unfolded, then take it off

Then you can put the pistol grip with the stock on again

[valid folio]

but when i put it on

i can't unfold it

[uncut night]

Oh

Take off the night vision scope

Then unfold it

Idk why, that's whats preventing you from doing it

[uncut night]

Take the scope off

[valid folio]

ok ill try to take off night vision

[uncut night]

And unfold the stock

That should work

Then you can take the stock off and put the grip and buffer tube back on

[icy swan]

Try putting the original stock back on and unfold it then put the required mods on.

[valid folio]

AAAH ty very much!

Vanish took the scope off and it worked

what is this bug btw...

[uncut night]

The grip with the buffer tube doesn't work of the original stock mount is folded

For some reason

[valid folio]

got it, well quest done

thank you for patience

[uncut night]

Np

[signal fractal]

Is it just me or are scavs op on Woods? I am trying to do that quest to kill them without armor and a bolt action with no scope. They can laser me through bushes. = /

[uncut night]

Idk tbh

It might be because the fact that there's so many more bushes

[dire matrix]

use the m1 rig or the korund armor. they still work with the task

but you didnt hear it from me

[signal fractal]

10-4 Thank you

[uncut night]

Korund is glitched for the quest?

[dire matrix]

its because its new

[uncut night]

[icy swan]

Puke.

Thats a hole.

[glossy cliff]

Anyone wanna help me find brass pocket watch, dorms water, or jagers camp?

[bold kernel]

what lvl do u need to get all traders to LL4 ?

[dire matrix]

40

[bold kernel]

ight thanks

[signal fractal]

Aside from that, is there another way? lol. Just wasted 100k on that armor to find out there are land mines on that map....cool stuff

[plucky heart]

You can usually play pretty slow on woods, take your time and avoid the landmined areas. Going to the camp near the water usually results in 1-3 scav kills per raid not counting what you run into on the way there.

unlock jaegar and use the cheapo vpo bolt action to cut down on costs.

[sturdy marlin]

ok...in my ambient aaudio i hear a voice every minute or so. i am certain its a voice or something that sounds exaactly like one. is this a known bug or something?

[fast imp]

anyone wanna help me finish a few quests im pretty new

[coral flame]

Anyone able to help me learn some descent money paths, im okay at the game just cant seem to actually make a profit

[ancient falcon]

This game has the worst visibility

hope they really work on that and not stay as is

especially through windows

https://gyazo.com/812aa0ef0290a54786daa3d46c4bfbfb

I killed 2 of his mates

[edgy flint]

ill play

[ancient falcon]

went to reposition and apparently hes in the window

This game doesn't allow me to see shit

[edgy flint]

@fast imp

[ancient falcon]

look up gpu and tetris spawns at interchange

there are plenty of paths

[edgy flint]

@fast imp what lobby you wanna play in. I am still new too

[olive bloom]

I never played this game a lot. I'm pretty new but I know some things. Would anybody help me get some tasks done

[edgy flint]

@olive bloom im down. Im shitt but i can help with the beginning stuff

[olive bloom]

Sounds good

Thank you

[edgy flint]

you wanna just join 5 man #16?

[bold kernel]

So I have a lot of rubles now and I feel like theyre just going to sit around and do nothing because I am happy using AKs

Any advice on what guns to use next

or attachments or anything

[olive bloom]

Sure

[edgy flint]

just joined

[olive bloom]

Wait where

[median kraken]

@bold kernel pick a map get some keys for it

[bold kernel]

Thats a good idea

I have all the dorms keys and a marked key for that stuff

[plucky heart]

ill back that up, if you have excess money invest it into your character somehow

hideout etc

[median kraken]

i would pick a different map than customs, reserve or shoreline are reccomendations.

[chilly plume]

@bold kernel reserve is pretty easy loot

Get keys for it

[bold kernel]

I have RBST and RBMP12 from scav runs

[chilly plume]

That's 2 keys you don't gotta buy

[bold kernel]

Ill check out what other ones are profitable

[chilly plume]

Watch a priority key guide

[bold kernel]

I still play like a noob and use guns I get from scav runs and I am sitting on 5.5m rubles lol

then I watch Pestily and see him with like, less than 2m and think I am doing something wrong

[chilly plume]

Avoid any expensive keys other than psp and ps80 keys, those are worth it even tho they cost a bit more

Orb keys too

[median kraken]

you have RBST FROM A SCAV?

[barren sapphire]

man i still dont understand what the best way is to hunt scavs. Every player usually rushes the spots anyways so youre in grave danger. THe other way is to wait for respawn which is just 20 minutes of boredom

[median kraken]

one of the best keys for reserve lmao

2.5m rouble key

[bold kernel]

Yeah, spawned with it. Considered selling it but figured I should just use it

[chilly plume]

@bold kernel maybe your doing something right and pestily is doing something wrong, ever think about that

Maybe you are the superior player

[bold kernel]

I sincerely doubt that is the case given my SR and his

[median kraken]

well, if you want to learn reserve i got some people running it right now.

i have most keys

[chilly plume]

Who cares about sr

You got the roubles

[bold kernel]

Ok whatever based on my aim and other shit I am definitely not good lmao

[chilly plume]

Who cares about aim

You are better than pestily financially

[median kraken]

i can show you the good spots and cheap keys 😄 im a pretty budgeted guy, so i can help out in the keys aspect

[bold kernel]

Oooh maybe Ill get a couple key tools

or just one

[median kraken]

only one keytool one sicc is needed for reserve

[bold kernel]

I need to work on quests, I have piles of quest items stacking up in my inventory

[chilly plume]

@median kraken where is your psp1 and ps82

[median kraken]

Psp1 is 500k Psp82 is also around 500k

i preferred RB-ST's consistancy

and i stick more near the knight barracs than hemo

[chilly plume]

Bring docs instead of sicc

[median kraken]

Sicc just does what docs does but better lmao

[chilly plume]

There are so many intel

You gotta bring a docs

[median kraken]

intel can go in a sicc chief 😉

[chilly plume]

Have I not played in that long damn

Ignore what I said then

[median kraken]

@bold kernel do you want to come along for some reserve?

[bold kernel]

Thank you but I am about to sleep

[median kraken]

aight.

[bold kernel]

so not tonight, itd be great to send you a message some time tomorrow or later

[median kraken]

just one run, this crew goin for one more anyways 🙂

[dire matrix]

intel cant go in sicc

[median kraken]

oh nevermind then, i swear i've seen my homie test it on discord.

[dire matrix]

wiki says otherwise

[chilly plume]

So I was right they didn't change it then lol

Haven't played in a while until started again this wipe so

[bold kernel]

Whats a nice cheap laser device?

PEQ2? Blue laser?

[chilly plume]

@median kraken start bringing an empty docs into reserve

[median kraken]

blue

[bold kernel]

LA5?

[median kraken]

i only get 1-2 and i play always in at least duo with a homie, and he brings his own docs

[chilly plume]

If you go for intel spawns you can get rich

There's so many

[median kraken]

alright, but i dont play solo chief please read my message

"i play always in at least duo with a homie, and he brings his own docs"

[chilly plume]

Yeah I read it after I sent my message lol

[bold kernel]

What about an IR laser so people cant see the dot?

[chilly plume]

I like ncstar, good cheap laser

[median kraken]

Engineer, me and my crew are doing one last run

you want to join?

[rigid bobcat]

anyone wanna help me new to tarkov

[median kraken]

@bold kernel ?

[void pivot]

@rigid bobcat there is a sherpa program

[rigid bobcat]

whats that

[void pivot]

basically go to

well I forgot lol

basically

[quasi harbor]

is the 100 killa quest part of kappa?

[void pivot]

there are these people you can schedule a time to go into the game with

and they will help you

[median nebula]

i am in need of assistance

[plucky heart]

Its a program that is partnered with the developers that aims to set new people up with experienced players to aid them in learning the game. Basically the same thing going on here but more formal

[void pivot]

thanks homie

[median nebula]

how do i play lmao

[plucky heart]

The people in the VC you are in should be able to help you out quicker but thats a pretty vague question lol

[median nebula]

lmao

i played like one raid about a year ago and like nah famn

[barren sapphire]

yeah the sad thing about this game is that you have to force yourself through a lot of frustration until you can get to the good part

[median kraken]

@median nebula you can join my crew on one reserve run

i cant promise anything

but 😄

[plucky heart]

It's a tough game, there are plenty of videos on youtube giving an overview of the game to give you an idea of whats going on. or you can dive straight in.

[median nebula]

i just want like a guide lmao

these guys seem like there busy

[median kraken]

i can guide you around reserve 😄

[median nebula]

isnt reserve hard or

[median kraken]

its not too bad

just stay close and w ecan do this

[median nebula]

umm ok

lol

[plucky heart]

someone better take you up on that offer, cause i need a reserve crash course myself. Ive avoided it since release.

[tiny stag]

should I wait until I get "decontamination service" to do my other interchange quests like the 20 scav kills, visit stores, etc?

[plucky heart]

Can you wait until you get that quest? I thought it was locked out till later

[dire matrix]

its the last quest therapist gives you

[plucky heart]

I'm not sure its worth it to wait, but thats just me.

you can passively kill scavs in every raid you do anyway, but up to you different strokes for different folks.

[dire matrix]

i wouldnt wait, ragman quests are good xp and money

holding out till you complete all of another traders tasks seems silly to me

[tiny stag]

ahh okay

thanks guys

[plucky heart]

Yeah if its convenient to combine tasks into one raid go for it but I agree, I wouldn't stress about it too much

[crude orbit]

ragman quests require going to interchange

i dislike interchange

atleast the first two

[tiny stag]

also, got any advice for how to kill 3 scavs in woods in 1 raid? I've done it before but lately I have been finding them super rare to find

[plucky heart]

Im with you there..too dark.

[plucky heart]

I advise going to the new camp near the log camp. Should get 1 or 2 on the way there and multiple spawn in that area alone. If you spawn there just wait inside until they spawn

[tiny stag]

do scavs not spawn in instantly in raids?

[plucky heart]

As far as i know its wave or tiered

[barren sapphire]

A Few do. Then theres a respawn period after half the raid

[plucky heart]

as in 3 here 5 there

over the course of a raid

[median kraken]

@plucky heart i got slots, you can come along 😄

[tiny stag]

oh wow

thanks!

[barren sapphire]

But since yesterday people are reporting Different spawn behabiours in customs, so maybe they changed It

[plucky heart]

they did report a change to behavior on customs correct, ive noticed a change myself.

[tiny stag]

@plucky heart is the log camp the one on the right?

[plucky heart]

haha i need to get back in the swing of group play before I end up FF'ing someone in here 😄

but ill take you up on that offer at some point

[plucky heart]

Negative, one second

[median kraken]

nah you're all good, we check pretty well

[quasi harbor]

is west 216 worth buying - how's the loot in the room? I need it for a task so was considering buying it, but its like 500k now

[median kraken]

honestly if you do ff its fine.

[barren trellis]

is there a way to make it stop pulling money from my docs case when i buy stuff? like i put my money in the top row of my stash or my money case top left spot of stash. but it keeps pulling my money from my docs case (i keep money in there for customs / woods runs and need cash)

[dire matrix]

it has a rare ledx spawn and some ammo spawns

[median kraken]

honestly if you want to join now, come along, more the merrier 😄

[plucky heart]

blue is the logging camp, red is the camp im referencing to go to

Avoid the blue circle if you can, there is only death there.

[barren sapphire]

Shturman says hi

[plucky heart]

sure, ill do one which channel

[tiny stag]

thank you so much bandeetz

[topaz night]

Any tips for pvp, i got out with gear and gain nothing, ive lost 400k in the past 2 days without profit

[quasi harbor]

pvp generally isn't the way to make profit

there are exceptions with getting kills on gigachads in labs or factory, but you generally make a profit by finding stuff in raid to sell or farming bosses for bitcoins

[barren sapphire]

You should have a good money Route you can run which then finances your pvp needs

[lost pulsar]

learn usual "crossing points" between spawns and be ready for it and forget that profit ive lost 5 mil past 2 days doing tasks that involves pmc kills 😄

[balmy ice]

LF some chill players for couple of runs. No experience requirments, dont mind help new players with tasks / money runs / boss farming. EU, ENG only, 18+

[rough basin]

i'd like to join

[tawny drift]

@topaz night if you want to profit from pvp, you cant be married to the loot you pull out. gotta sell it

[glossy cliff]

fucking exit campers are you fucking kidding me. can someone help me get the brass pocket watch quest done?

3/3 runs so far someones literally camping ruaf exit

[tawny drift]

are you NA?

[glossy cliff]

ye

NAw

[tawny drift]

same go to 2 man squad #1

[rough basin]

up for a third?

[glossy cliff]

[rough basin]

pretty sure i'm on the same prapor task

[manic hatch]

Anyone trying help me

[deep flume]

Any aussies on here looking to help someone new?

[limpid jay]

Anyone have any good routes on customs? Fairly new and looking for a good one

[terse yoke]

need help i am kinda new

[topaz hearth]

can you send me that map 😐

[rare nymph]

Anyone down for some runs? I'm NA and pretty new just looking to learn and get experience

[tiny stag]

guys!!

I found this on a scav

I'm tying to sell on the market but everyone is trading for a green labs key - why is that?

should I trade for a green key card? very confused

[median kraken]

when you sell on market, it gives you a MASSIVE tax

so i would trade it for a key or two you want

or keep it, just keep it in raid

@rare nymph i gotcha

[tawny drift]

@tiny stag thats insanely lucky keep it

[edgy flint]

looking for one more

5 man #16

[naive depot]

green keycard is used to open a locked room on labs

do NOT trade it for a green card

as for why they're trading for it? no clue i'd much rather have ultra lol

[glossy cliff]

my friend sold a ultra key for 3m

[bold kernel]

its 11 mil according to tarkov market

but thers non up

so yeah

[round ridge]

Does anybody know if overall visibility affects the range at which I can render in players?

[smoky wing]

@tiny stag

this key is worth around 11-15 M

@naive depot they are trading for green to avoid huge fees that come from selling it for robules

or trading for 10 graphics cards or 20 tetriz

simply because putting this key for roubles gives a huge fee

that u need to pay in advance

[bold kernel]

DOSE labs have a lot of HACKERS ?

[smoky wing]

meh depends

most out of all maps that's for sure

[fallen cargo]

i think there just a lot of verry verry good players there

so 1 thinks faster did that guy just 360noscope me

but there just that good

this game shoud just have a kill came afhtere the compleat raid is don that you can rewatsh

[bold kernel]

am am geting wallbang on labs so thats why i was asking

[fallen cargo]

yea there just that good its where all the big boys play

you want the same fights go to shorline to resort you get the same feeling 40%of the time

[bold kernel]

alright bet ya i got like 10m $ and dont know wtf to do with it

[fallen cargo]

lol i got around 6/7

ful hidout upgrade exsept for bitcoin

but labs cost around 500k to 1mil a raid

[final geode]

can u upgrade your "edition" to a bigger one? i mean the packages

[limpid jay]

For like the game?

[bold kernel]

i dont mean 10 m in real life lmfao

[smoky wing]

@final geode yes

u just pay the price diffrence

[final geode]

ok thanks alot

also skryre rules yes yes @smoky wing

[plucky heart]

https://i.redd.it/58iiphfq3z861.png sorry for late response

[edgy flint]

could use another. 5 man #16

[sour heron]

any US players want to play Shoreline map?

[river crest]

When you want to play the game and tarkov wants you to AWOL

[grave drift]

lmfao facts

[river crest]

Guess I'll come back in 30 minutes, hopefully my character is dead from dehydration or something

[reef turret]

with artyoms car do you have to extract in the same match?

[silver hornet]

don't think you do

[knotty meadow]

If you don't want to trade it for a green keycard (A key that you can only use on labs, a map which is very sweaty and high end gear filled, with a 290k ENTRY FREE), you can either keep the key and use it (It is very profitable) or you can trade it for GPU's or Tetrizes, for the hideout you can craft a bitcoin farm, which requries Graphics Cards to work, the more GPUs you got the faster it produces Bitcoins, which sell for 560k right now. (Bitcoins only sell to vendors, ALWAYS sell barters to therapist, she gives best prize!) With a Tetriz, every 2 hours you can trade 1 Tetriz to Mechanic and get a bitcoin, this bitcoin you can sell to Therapist for 560k!

[wraith geode]

Hey guys is this supposed to show x/4?? I've gotten 3Ms and TOZs and haven't been able to turn any in? Do i need all 4 of each all at once to be able to turn them in or can I turn them in as I go?

[swift hawk]

@wraith geode were they on scavs?

[wraith geode]

yep

[swift hawk]

As in did you do a scav run to get them

[wraith geode]

ive found them in both pmc and scav runs

and found in raid

[swift hawk]

It doesn't count if it was done on a scav run for some reason

[wraith geode]

ohhh since its a task?

[swift hawk]

Mhm

[wraith geode]

lame

thanks for the info!

[sour heron]

I got server connection lost last night for the first time.

[swift hawk]

You can craft low tier armour in the hideout to complete it though

Best of luck friendo

[wraith geode]

ahh ok

thanks!

[torn ledge]

Guys, help me decide: should I just fuckin sell all my moonshine or try and find all the insanely expensive items to craft a Scav Case?

[manic horizon]

i would use it if you have a case

[torn ledge]

Feel like it'll take for-fucking-ever to get the cash back from Scav Case anyway. Never got anything too amazing from it last couple wipes

[topaz hearth]

That's the other one & It's alright 😄

[blazing heron]

any spots for shooter born in heaven on reserve

[manic horizon]

i usually make profit, but sometimes you get the huge profit

like last moonshine i did i got a tank battery(500k), the cottage key(450k), and a folder of intel (250k)

and that pays for itself 5 or 6 times over

[torn ledge]

Yeah I usually make money back from Moonshine/Intel but it'll cost around 2mill just to get the Scav Case up rn. The lions are so fucking rare, and are selling for ~400k each rn.

[manic horizon]

then try find the lions

[torn ledge]

Just thinking I might as well sell the moonshine I have and keep producing moonshine until I find the items.

[manic horizon]

fair enough

[torn ledge]

Easier said than done. I've looked through a LOT of safes and only ever found one 😄

[manic horizon]

no hit shoreline resort or the interchange saferoom

ive found 6 this wipe in the saferoom

and ive only hit it like 30-45 times

[torn ledge]

Mate, I've run Shoreline a LOT for LEDX's and looked through all the rare loot spawns I have keys for.

I know the spawns, I just haven't been very lucky this wipe.

Fuckit, I'm just gonna sell 'em for now 😄

[manic horizon]

yeah thats fair

i just wouldnt unless i desperatly needed the money

[torn ledge]

I don't need the money but I'm gonna reinvest it into GPU's

[manic horizon]

nice

im debating buying my last 10

but thats 10 mil haha

im just crafting them, takes ages but im slowly filling up

[torn ledge]

Yuuuuuuup. GPU's are so fuckin expensive atm compared to last wipe lol

[manic horizon]

its cos bitcoins are crazy

[torn ledge]

I regret not buying a bunch when they were like 160k

[manic horizon]

540k i sold one today for

a bitcoin^

[torn ledge]

Yup likewise

540k compared to, what, 220k last wipe?

[manic horizon]

yeah

but the farm takes like 3 hours more even maxed out

[torn ledge]

BTC has gone waaaay up

Mhm

[manic horizon]

yeah, but they have nerfed the farm, and fuel is also crazy

i swear i used to find 2-3 fuel per raid on IC, i think ive only found one now in the last 100 raids

[torn ledge]

Yeah, the intentional shortage has doubled the usual price for fuel

[manic horizon]

yeep

[torn ledge]

Thankfully, barter trades n such make it not too bad.

The only real shame is not getting the blue cans because I can't go on to make mag cases etc

[bold kernel]

can u buy a Military cable tank battery OF THE FLEA ?

[torn ledge]

Yup, you can buy both

[upper iron]

You can buy fuel from jaeger for 140k a pop though

25 hours per 140k isn't too bad

[torn ledge]

Sure, that's good and all. I just wish I could get the Expeditionary Cans at a reasonable price

250k on the market rn for expeditionary and 300k for metal fuel. Insane.

[sour heron]

no way to search our inventory by keyword?

[torn ledge]

Sadly not.

[sour heron]

thought I had a key on me...

ok ty

[torn ledge]

You can filter for keys, if that helps?

[upper iron]

Okay but you can the big one for 140k from Jaeger lol

[sour heron]

ok. might need level 10 for filter

oh I see what you mean. the filter icon. ok thanks

[torn ledge]

You're missing the point. Expeditionary is less worth it for fuel efficiency, but two empties can be turned into mag cases.

Last wipe when they were easy enough to find (and therefore cheap), it was worthwhile to use them over metal

[upper iron]

You can make the metal ones into a nade case though

So you don't profit but you don't take a huge hit :D

[torn ledge]

Sure. But I can turn mag cases into Scav Junkbox

You're not wrong, but it doesn't change the fact that fuel is insane rn 😄

[upper iron]

It doesn't, but you can buy it way cheaper =D

[sour heron]

having more trouble getting oriented on Customs map (my 2nd map to learn) than I did Shoreline.

[torn ledge]

Customs isn't bad once you learn specific map areas. Old Gas Station, New Gas Station, Construction, Dorms, Big Red etc etc

[kind minnow]

im lvl 5 i need someone to play with me and teach me the game EU

[torn ledge]

Try the Sherpa hub - #sherpa-info or #pvp-lfg

[topaz hearth]

My first time hitting the marked room on customs & got the ammo box [-_-]

[torn ledge]

Nice

You seem unhappy about that but that's a pretty decent grab

[topaz hearth]

yea I already had one ammo box

for now that's enough for meh

[grim oak]

Decent grab

@topaz hearth one is like 100k

[topaz hearth]

yea saw that I thought marked room worth more then that

[torn ledge]

I hope you're ready for disappointment.

[topaz hearth]

😦

[torn ledge]

You'll have some runs on the marked room that'll be like 20-50k, sometimes you get nothing at all

[topaz hearth]

already disappointed reading that xD

[torn ledge]

Other times, a 500k+ run just from the room

You just have to recognise that a marked room does not mean amazing loot each time. It varies wildly

[silver hornet]

Who knows, maybe if you're really lucky, you'll get a red card

[sour heron]

is this a discard?

[torn ledge]

Yup

[sour heron]

thanks

[topaz hearth]

Toyota key

[silver hornet]

EXCUSE YOu

It's YOTOTA

[sour heron]

okay here is my key collection so far.

anything jump out as good?

[civic sentinel]

3 nippers is pretty lit

[sour heron]

LMAO hahaha

[torn ledge]

San 221 is good

It accesses 3 rooms with decent spawns in the resort

Factory key is always good

[narrow yew]

RB-VO is a decent marked room on Reserve,

[silver hornet]

114 has a safe, 206 you need for a quest, customs office key is good, two factory keys are pretty damn good, keycard is good for money, which KIBA key is that? RB-VO is for marked, Room 118, 203, and 218 you can sell, Room 214 is good

[narrow yew]

I think he has Kiba 1. If so, he hit a gold mine cause kiba 2 is free in quests.

Yea. He has the 400k key to kiba.

[sour heron]

wooo hooo this game is deeeep man. immersion lol

[torn ledge]

Keep that one. KIBA can be a gold mine, but you need a second key (which is cheap af and you can get free from quests)

[narrow yew]

55-60k on flea atm for second key. Or yea. Like 25% into quests you get the key free.

[sour heron]

aight gonna put the San 221 key up my butt lol.. and try Resort

[torn ledge]

There a fuckload of really good keys on Resort but that one is quite contested; be prepared for a fight

[sour heron]

a double barrel would be nice... hmmmm

[blazing heron]

reserve is the dumbest map of all time its a fucking rat paradise and shooter born in heaven is impossible i dont see a single soul

[torn ledge]

🤔

[silver hornet]

🤔

[blazing heron]

i got 1 kill while watching tech room yesterday but now i dont see a single thing

[grim oak]

Bruh. Reserve is a map where new players who just wanna make a buck go. No wonder you ain't seeing chads.

Or they're ninja chads.

Or they're doing shooter born in heaven at the dome

[blazing heron]

im not saying that i dont see chads i dont see people at all

[bold kernel]

at Reserve ???

[blazing heron]

yep

at least me

[bold kernel]

wtf kind of servers u going on i go to gpu room and they like 4 ppl they fighting

[blazing heron]

austria

[bold kernel]

imma need to try those servers XDS

[grim oak]

Why do sometimes no scavs spawn in when i set offline mode and enable pve as well as set the amount to high?

[sour heron]

ARGHH... more power players up this time a day.. good practice but not winning lol

need more scrubs like me to login to even the playing field...

😄

[rugged spear]
