drifting jolt
#

and all of that stuff is pretty much worth saving except maybe the pliers

solid dagger
#

dm if you want to help me out im brand new i know a few things tho

drifting jolt
#

those top 2 30 rounders are like 40k mags i think

lunar pine
spiral turtle
#

no new armor? sadge

drifting jolt
solid dagger
#

k thx

drifting jolt
lunar pine
drifting jolt
#

im unavailable for voice at the moment... sell the VSS, and the expensive mags, bc they are not 'Found In Raid'

#

and the ammo for it is expensive as balls, and you cant even buy teh ammo til level 10

spiral turtle
#

no USE THE VSS

#

you have 3 30 rounders!

drifting jolt
#

he's level 2

spiral turtle
#

so, he can clap

lunar pine
#

i just hit lvl 3 from that lol

drifting jolt
#

he cant buy the bullets bro

lunar pine
#

with a bare ass ak lol

spiral turtle
#

sp-5 ??

#

super cheap

drifting jolt
#

from who?

spiral turtle
#

hell be lvl 10 in no time

drifting jolt
#

it's not worth keeping

#

especially if he has only the standard edition of the game

slow bone
#

agreed with mote

drifting jolt
#

the sight is worth keeping, but not the gun and the mags, takes up to much space

slow bone
#

i had the same problem in the beginning

#

killed 2 incredibly geared guys first match

spiral turtle
#

remove pistol grip

drifting jolt
#

if he were level 10 maybe, and it's still expensive ass ammo to run for an auto

#

he can buy or find another one later...

slow bone
#

kept the guns forever, took up all my space and in the end i wasnt able to sell them on the flea because i had no idea they had to be FiR

lunar pine
#

so keep the pistol grip and sight from the VSS?

drifting jolt
spiral turtle
#

haha nah if you remove pistol grip it makes the gun smaller

drifting jolt
#

on most guns you can remove the mag and the pistol grip to make it smaller

lunar pine
#

OH

spiral turtle
#

and mag

drifting jolt
#

but just sell the guns and mags to a dealer

#

if you just have to try one later, you can once you get flea market

#

not worth sucking up your inventory space, you have almost no experience with this game's automatic guns

spiral turtle
#

vss is a laser

lunar pine
#

is the SPP ammo good?

drifting jolt
#

that gun is kind of a higher skill level gun

spiral turtle
#

spp ammo is high tier

drifting jolt
spiral turtle
#

yeah dont try to snipe

lunar pine
#

yeah im running out of space ive been selling so much to dealers

vernal wyvern
#

shotgun internal mags mean any ammo you load in-game is the next to be chambered, right?

spiral turtle
#

@lunar pine many rigs give more space than they take up, use them for extra space

slow bone
#

how often does the game come on sale?

drifting jolt
slow bone
#

think i will upgrade to EOD

drifting jolt
#

they had a sale at xmas, so id wait til next month

rapid lotus
#

can anyone recommend a way to get the 6b43 armor under 50%? cause I'm not trying to pay like 6 mil for broken armor

slow bone
#

ive been having a blast thus far but alpha case and smoll stash are fucking annoying

drifting jolt
#

to see if there's a sale

drifting jolt
slow bone
#

just upgraded today to lvl 2 stash and christ what a difference

rapid lotus
#

@slow bone I upgraded to eod like 2 days after I started playing

#

its worth it swear to god

slow bone
#

figured, but ill wait for a sale to upgrade

glass wharf
#

anyone want to help with delivery from the past on factory?

drifting jolt
#

@slow bone try to wait til next month if you can, will probably get another sale, and it's usually 25% off, unless you got the $ and dont care

drifting jolt
#

get it done stress free

slow bone
#

that works?

#

bruh

drifting jolt
#

yeah, factory day is max 5 PMCs

glass wharf
#

ive died so many times

#

didnt know that

drifting jolt
#

so if it's you and 4 other dudes, then no other PMCs will spawn, just player scavs after about 15 minutes

slow bone
#

yeah delivery from the past is a bitch

drifting jolt
lunar pine
#

what do u do with dogtags?

drifting jolt
lunar pine
#

how do i get one

drifting jolt
#

you can turn a 100 for a case, 140 for a different case

meager crescent
#

if u save them u can trade them for stuff but u can sell them

drifting jolt
#

@lunar pine flea market

lunar pine
#

crap lol

meager crescent
#

id save them

drifting jolt
#

you only need 54k total exp for level 10

lunar pine
#

i was just trying to kill 5 scavs on customs lol

drifting jolt
#

yeah dude, that's dope

lunar pine
#

these vss mags only go for 15k selling, should i hold for lvl 10?

drifting jolt
#

if the thing doesnt have a white circle and check mark in the bottom right... it is not Found In Raid or FIR

#

if it's not FIR, you cant sell it on flea... those mags sell for that on flea market, but your mags arent FIR, bc things PMCs bring in cant be FIR

lunar pine
#

ahh ok

drifting jolt
#

everything you find on a map will be FIR if you get either 600 exp or are in the raid for at least 10 minutes as a PMC

#

if not, the items will not be FIR and cannot be sold on flea

#

those mags on flea are like 40-50k, but to a dealer you get less

#

and since you got them from a PMC they will not become FIR

lunar pine
#

thanks for explaining so much

agile forge
drifting jolt
#

did you kill anythging?

#

oh oh youre saying not asking

#

i doont believe thats accurate

lunar pine
#

anyone want to play customs on eu?

drifting jolt
buoyant shale
#

how much slower am i at 20.3 kg compared to a guy who is only running a pistol?

#

how has he already looted texho and techlight when i got there lmao </3

#

i cant tell how much of a difference a 16 kg makes cuz it also depends on spawn

drifting jolt
#

the gun you have doesnt really matter, it's just your weight

buoyant shale
#

yea ik but if he is only wearing a pistol he should be about 4 kg

drifting jolt
#

it's not hte speed that is effected as much, it's the distance

buoyant shale
#

stamina consumption i think

#

or stamina regeneration

drifting jolt
#

someone lighter will run a lil bit faster, but will run a lot farther if they're lighter

gusty zenith
#

Hey people. I bought the game yesterday and im really scared to use my gear, is this the right place to look for someone to guide me?

drifting jolt
gusty zenith
#

ok ok

#

The beginners vc isnt one on one is it

drifting jolt
#

no

#

you need a sherpa if youre that concerne.d.. you can request sherpa services by typing !sherpahub

#

it's not immediate though

crude flower
#

Is it possible to hold your breath while holding e or q?

rain zephyr
#

Hey guys, do you have any tips for a super new player? Like, where should I be raiding, what should I be doing in game, that kind of thing. Kind of a broad question I know but I thought i'd ask.

drifting jolt
#

Scav is coming in with a random loadout, it's free gear and money with no risk... PMC is where you bring your own shit in

#

^ map

#

most of your beginning quests are all on customs

#

so if you learn that first you can start questing, which rewards you with nice chunks of EXP

#

Guns dont do damage bullets do...

rain zephyr
#

Can you do quest shit with a scav?

ivory field
#

No

drifting jolt
#

only simple shit like 'find this item in raid' like shotguns or armors

#

if it's 'find this quest item' then no

rain zephyr
#

Ok, got ya, and then tactics wise how should I be playing?

drifting jolt
#

So take it slow, move with purpose, dont just be wandering out in the open

#

listen A LOT

rain zephyr
#

Thats reassuring lol. But yeah, can do, i'll take my time and listen.

drifting jolt
#

if you've played a lot of FPS games that'll help, but youre still gonna get walked all over for a while

#

@rain zephyr OH, and AI scavs will NOT shoot you if you're also a scav... UNTIL you hurt one of them, after that they all will aggro to you if they see you

#

You can do a few offline raids to help you get acclimated

worn hound
#

Gotta throw call of duty out the window and try to feel like what a real life combat would be tbh lol

drifting jolt
#

after selecting your map, hit next, then enable offline

rain zephyr
#

Ok, thats a useful did bit, how can I differentiate between scavs and PMC's?

drifting jolt
#

make sure to enable scavs, then you can kinda learn scav AI a bit

#

they wear different shit, and scav clearly act like bots

worn hound
#

By clothing and the way they move

drifting jolt
#

player scavs will look the same, but they will different behave like humans

rain zephyr
#

Ok, cool.

spiral turtle
#

although scavs randomly sprint now, which can be scary as shit

drifting jolt
#

AI scavs will also wiggle at you

opal moth
#

and pick up guns

drifting jolt
#

and eat and drink

opal moth
#

lmao they really be doing everything now

rain zephyr
#

As for looting, should I be looking for specific stuff or is it mostly random spawns?

spiral turtle
#

eft is a game of knowledge, you will have to learn the value of every item over time

drifting jolt
spiral turtle
#

use the wiki to search for specific items if u care enough

rain zephyr
#

I have the map opened up in a tab and am looking it over

spiral turtle
#

you seem like a reader, check that guide out m8

#

and go quest

rain zephyr
#

I appreciate the help lads.

drifting jolt
#

we're always here to answer questions

spiral turtle
#

im not

#

i come and go as i please

#

this mote guy is on a mission or smthn

rain zephyr
#

Nice, I think i'll play a bit and come back most likely with a story of getting stomped and some more questions lol.

drifting jolt
#

I **help nearly everday, spent over 2 hours in a call with a noob earlier today

spiral turtle
#

are you in the sherpa hub?

drifting jolt
#

dont want to feel obligated to answer sherpa requests

maiden dawn
#

Mote is dope! Extremely helpful

drifting jolt
#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

thanks man

#

how the raids gone?

maiden dawn
#

Yeah good dude.. Done 3 raids this morning on interchange.. Still going awesome. Loving the game even more

drifting jolt
#

fantastic!

maiden dawn
#

1500exp off lvl 10! Lessgo

drifting jolt
#

good on you bro! that's one good PMC raid... you kill 3 or 4 scavs and youve got it

maiden dawn
#

Dude i'm finding so many Tetriz's lol Making good bank.. Doing pretty good at getting to those idea front offices first

#

Yet to find a gfx card

opal moth
#

where do you find tetriz i have never found any personally

drifting jolt
#

they're not common, but more easily found interchange than most other maps

opal moth
#

ooh alr thanks

drifting jolt
#

German, Rasmussen, Techlite, shop across from emercom medical, idea office, idea backroom, texho are the most common spawns for tetriz @opal moth

#

if you look on a map, the unnamed shop above emercom medical has GPU and tetriz spawns

#

i ALWAYS check that shop

#

on the metal shelves and orange countertops

proud gyro
#

im lvl 13 but trying to get people to do the kiba store runs with me I have both keys

barren trellis
#

tired of being shot in the face

#

oh wait this still doesnt block rounds Lol

clever copper
#

i got into marked room and picked up an m1a how much modding do i need to do before its worth using

drifting jolt
#

200-300k

#

to make it a beast, but it's pretty good with minimal attachments

clever copper
#

i'm mostly just using it instead of a vepr hunter next raid cause it has bigger mags

drifting jolt
#

hunter is still a beast too though

clever copper
#

yeah thats why i use it so much

drifting jolt
#

just not as good close as m1a bc of the mags

flint stream
#

Total newbie but i have picked up on the game fast. What is the fastest way to level up?

opal moth
#

yo is rip ammo good to use with an mp5

drifting jolt
#

quest

flint stream
#

yerrrrr

drifting jolt
opal moth
#

got yaaa thanks

clever copper
#

pst gzh can work if you go for headshots

#

unless they have a faceshield youll dome em pretty quick

drifting jolt
#

can being the operative word

opal moth
#

oh alright good to know thank you

drifting jolt
#

pst wont stop a chad with chest shots at all though

opal moth
#

i usually run an mp5 with a drum and rip but ive been aiming at the chest/head this whole time lol

#

prob y i dont live too much

opal moth
#

lmao yeppp

clever copper
#

yeah go for legs and youll down em quick

drifting jolt
#

tells you all you need to know about bullets

opal moth
#

ooh alright perfect thx

drifting jolt
#

pay attention to penetration of armors, and the flesh damage

clever copper
drifting jolt
#

if it doesnt pen armor at all, it probably does super high flesh damage impying it's leg meta ammo

maiden dawn
clever copper
#

^

drifting jolt
#

nah i like numbers, not graphs

opal moth
#

oh alright ill use all of em lol

drifting jolt
#

preference though

clever copper
#

in short if you have high pen go for chest or head, if you have high damage go for arms and legs

opal moth
#

alright thank you for the info

drifting jolt
#

np

limber horizon
#

hey so i got two chemical things for vitamins part one, but forgot to hand over and went into another raid, if i die in this raid do i lose the first two chems

Looking for some help on reserve, Ive got like 20 hrs and just looking for some guidance DM if interested

maiden dawn
#

Just got to level 10.. What's the first thing I should do? lol

opal moth
#

bathe in the glory of the flea market

maiden dawn
#

Yesssss!!!

#

lol

opal moth
#

lolll

eager yarrow
#

doess the online time in the overall section count as only time in raid or time total on tarkov

opal moth
#

but fr pick up everything you find, sometimes you can find something worth a lot to sell on the flea market

#

time in raid

eager yarrow
#

scav and pmc or just scav

opal moth
#

do you mean the 2 times when you click on a map? like where it says 13:00 on one side and another time on the other

eager yarrow
#

when you press overall and it says your online time

#

in the menu

opal moth
#

ooooh

#

I'm pretty sure it means time total on tarkov, I don't know for sure though

bold kernel
#

doing dorms run i have 5 uses left on mark room, can someone guide me and help me

upper iron
#

What do you need a guide for if you've already used it?

opal moth
#

whats a guide

#

the maps

red flame
upper iron

Just seems like a bit of a bait for TK D:

red flame
#

ResidentSleeper that, or legitimate bad player

Anyone able to help me on eft I have 800 roubles left and Iโ€™m level 5 kinda losing motivation to play dm me if you can help

rustic plank
#

I have

#

I just die

maiden dawn
#

What map?

shadow current
#

play slower, more methodically

opal moth
#

i cant get on rn but ill send u a good vid one sec

rustic plank
#

Iโ€™ve been running interchange a lot because I got all the stuff I have as of rn from there as a scab

#

Scav*

maiden dawn
#

I was the same when I first started man

shadow current
#

try factory

#

factory scav is usually ez mode

rustic plank
#

And normally when I kill someone I die from another player scav that I cant tell is player scav or a player from 500 years away

shadow current
#

part of the game you die then you rise up.

rustic plank
#

Iโ€™ve just had no luck and now no money lmao

shadow current
#

you can reset your acct for the starter money and guns

#

on eft website

wild trout
#

anyone trying to run possibly help me with some quests im new to the game but half ass know how to play lol

surreal ice
#

to craft a medbox, does the fuel tank need to be empty?

#

magbox*

silver hornet
#

it can be either full or empty, I'm pretty sure

mystic crag
bold kernel
opal moth
#

thats pretty good loot

#

not insane insane but pretty good

bold kernel
#

i went in with magnum buck expecting to kill scavs

opal moth
#

magnum buck gets the job done

shadow current
#

rat attack

bold kernel
red flame
#

ears are okay

bold kernel
#

this is th eammo

red flame
#

just liquidate the majority of it

#

m61 good ammo. use sparingly

opal moth
#

for a new player it isnt that bad lol

mystic crag
#

trooper is good throwaway armor

red flame
#

yeah, but there's a reason people don't use it when they know the game

mystic crag
#

repairs well and will get back from insurance like 50/50

red flame
#

i won't teach a new person that something is good if i won't use it personally ๐Ÿ˜„

shadow current
#

hunter + m61 = ez rat to meta

opal moth
#

Bruh

red flame
#

it's a good mentality. i aim to support by telling you that it won't be what you will run most of the time lol

opal moth
#

Man most likely can't run hella geared just saying

placid tree
#

mate i just throw on whatever and go in

red flame
#

some people are like that, but who's to say they aren't PES_LowIQ

tiny stag
#

what is currently the best way to make money (besides btc farm)? Would it be tech store rush on interchange?

naive atlas
#

rush tetriz and gfx card for btc farm

red flame
#

yeah, your best bet is interchange rushing, kick fucking teeth in on labs, or just do reserve.

#

oh yeah, shoreline

#

shoreline is always money

vestal kite
#

how do you max your strength and endurance??

red flame
#

have to go resort though

placid tree
#

I barely remember customs

red flame
#

you unlock access to the air filtering unit in your hideout that gives a... i think 40% exp boost or some shit to physical skills

#

maybe 30%

#

but that will greatly increase your strength and endurance leveling. endurance is just running around. strength you need the weight number to be yellow (encumbered)

vestal kite
#

overweight you mean

red flame
#

you can fill a docs case with sas drives to store in your gamma as weight, shotgun shells are cheap and work, too. if your case is large enough, you can even tank battery.

#

yeah, idk the specific term for the minor encumber

vestal kite
#

okieee thanks

#

!!

red flame
#

air filter unit requires the fp-100's btw. so it costs money on top of the fuel

tiny stag
#

yeah actually it is so silly, after I asked, I ran texho and found a gpu

red flame
#

unless you find the filters, but they're rare

tiny stag
#

that's like 1mil in 5mins

#

which is ridiculous

placid tree
red flame
#

i miss days when i didn't know the game well and my heart was always audible in my ears

tiny stag
#

interchange tech store

placid tree
#

imma attempt that

red flame
#

it's hard to get out of, lol

#

legit just takes time

#

if you run tech stores, just be wary if you don't spawn next to them, you will be beat. and even spawning beside them, someone with higher level stats or even an stim popped can outrun you

placid tree
#

Idrk, I always light people up but never drop em

#

Since I began playing again I don't believe I've extracted once yet lmfao

bold kernel
#

doing dorms run i have 5 uses left on mark room, can someone guide me and help me

red flame
#

how do you have five uses left if you need a guide, man

#

you came here earlier with that suspicious shit, lol

nocturne moat
#

Can anyone help me with challaneges

red flame
#

game is nice if you like being punched in sensitive areas

#

like the balls

placid tree
#

so you know like when you're checking how many bullets you have left or whatever? I always accidentally do left alt and w making my gun aim upwards by accident due to me normally walking/running

red flame
#

you'll want to rebind all that shit. side mouse buttons are op for tarkov

placid tree
#

What would you suggest?

nocturne moat
#

can anyone help me with tasks

red flame
#

take everything off shift is what I did. i use ctrl/alt+ my side mouse buttons, scroll wheel, or clicking down on the scroll wheel.

#

really something you have to sit down in an offline or at your shooting range and feel out

placid tree
#

Can you lose things offline? I've always wondered that

red flame
#

nope

#

you can take a fir labs card into an offline labs and it won't lose found in raid, too

gritty orbit
#

do ai scavs spawn in the second the game starts? i know player scavs are later on. also, if ai scavs do spawn off the bat, are those the spawns you see on the maps online? or are those the player scav spawns that only happen later into the match?

red flame
#

Ai scavs should spawn off the bat, but some maps like factory or customs, it's hard to say

#

i feel like sometimes you see nothing early on in the raid

surreal ice
placid tree
#

there's so many controls lmfao

red flame
#

here i'll start it up and screen my settings

#

because i don't have everything rebound. just what i deemed important for the rat lifestyle

storm crescent
red flame
#

shit

#

that svd is horrible hahaha

dire matrix
#

they are all kinda bad

storm crescent
#

ya lol look at that ergo

surreal ice
#

0 ergo lmao

storm crescent
#

idk why these guys were all running thermals

dire matrix
#

just take reaps, stocks and ammo

red flame
#

they are all bad, for sure

#

the reapir on them take for sure

dire matrix
#

take the supressor off the sr-25

#

sell the rest

red flame
#

yeah take silencers off

storm crescent
#

alright bet

red flame
#

maybe keep svd for the quest

surreal ice
#

listem to campbell

dire matrix
#

take mags ammo supressors and sights

red flame
#

but mod it before you use it please

storm crescent
#

so silencers possibly ammo and stocks

#

ya ofc

#

what svd quest

#

how far in is that

red flame
#

svd quest shit will burn a hole in your pockets if you die

dire matrix
#

punisher part 6

storm crescent
#

uh

#

oh that's the epsilon one

#

right?

dire matrix
#

yeah

storm crescent
#

ya it's done

red flame
#

then you're good to go

dire matrix
#

well then

storm crescent
#

now im just tryna grind for a ledx

#

for a thicc case

red flame
#

i don't even like reapirs, man. flir is the best thermal

storm crescent
#

flir zoom is nuts

dire matrix
#

honestly the silencerco supressor is ass

red flame
#

that zoom level PES4_MoneyEyes

dire matrix
#

sell it too

storm crescent
#

but i dont think you can bring it into a nighttime raid

dire matrix
#

the only good one there is the sig qd

red flame
#

i bring thermals into night raids

#

only lost one this wipe so far

placid tree
#

wait how good is a grizzly first aid kit lmao

storm crescent
#

i thought the screen brightness

red flame
#

but i kinda spoonfed him the kill

storm crescent
#

of the flir is too bright at night

red flame
#

maybe, but i have postfx set and all that

storm crescent
#

ah

red flame
#

i am a night rat, so i kinda setup my shit for that. if i play daytime my eyes bleed

#

i don't even use nvgs lol

storm crescent
#

its stupid profitable

#

but non fir thermals don't sell for much

nocturne moat
#

can anyone help me with tasks

red flame
#

i just use them if i pull them off people

#

i usually hunt cultists and try to let one stab me

#

go through a whole grizzly in a single raid for exp

red flame
storm crescent
red flame
#

nah, i'm just a sped lol

#

legit just do it because i like getting 20k+ exp after raids

nocturne moat
#

can anyone help me with tasks

red flame
#

i fucked that screen up hard. forgot to show check mag. oh well

vast palm
#

hey all

red flame
#

if no one takes it out of raid

#

if time expires in raid, anything on your person will be lost

dire matrix
#

if it doesnt get taken out of raid you get it back after 24-36 hours

#

no ammo meds or grenades tho

red flame
#

so you drop everything before time hits 0 and you'll get it back

#

correct

dire matrix
#

its gone

red flame
#

yeah people taking your stuff out of the raid you lost it

#

means it's gone

dire matrix
#

if your insured gear is in raid at the end of the raid timer, you will 100% get it back

placid tree
#

..i never realized that while i was reloading my mags were getting dropped lol

red flame
#

hopefully they were insured

opal moth
#

I saw this vid and some dude had thermal goggles or something I had no idea those were in game

red flame
#

8mil

opal moth
#

Good those things looked broken

red flame
#

the day before wipe happened, everyone was running them without a care haha

opal moth
#

Wow lol

red flame
#

they dropped the price of them down to 400k and made it so you could get several

#

you can only use ironsights with them, though

#

the ir rays won't go through any optics you try to use

opal moth
#

Oh ok where do you even get them from anyways?

red flame
opal moth
#

Holy lmao. Can you find these ingame?

red flame
#

probably. not like i ever would haha. probably in places like kiba on interchange

#

but i don't think you can sell them on flea now that i think about it

#

so probably not able to find them

opal moth
#

oh alright

plush quest
opal moth
#

thx

#

would be crazy finding one tho

@fiery mountain you might be better suited to use the #pvp-lfg channel, might get better luck there, but also be warned they are shutting down the servers for a patch update, the #eft-announcements said

It's barter only because of the immense fees it would charge if you were to list it for roubles

so i would need to have a found in raid blue card and a found in raid violet card to buy this for example

wish there was a table that tells you what "super-rare" items are in the scav case

torn ledge
# crude orbit wish there was a table that tells you what "super-rare" items are in the scav ca...

It is sort of covered on the Wiki - each searchable container has a list of possible spawns. Most of those pages specify the rarity of items:
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Looting#Searchable_Containers

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Looting is the main source for acquiring items, gear and weapons scattered throughout the Norvinsk region. It is also the easiest way to obtain items with the found in raid status.

#

Hm, actually having looked through it looks like the rarities have been removed in most cases ๐Ÿค”

#

Rare/super rare should be relatively obvious though.

Super rare is things like Gold Watches, Bronze Lion Statues, Skull Ring etc etc. Most of those items have purple backgrounds.

I'd recommend checking out #pvp-lfg and the Sherpa Hub (see #sherpa-info). You may still find someone who can help, but those are the best places to go ๐Ÿ™‚

like san 216 is worth alot, therapist buys it for 45k while on flea it sells for 635k

You need it for a quest and it has really good loot spawns.

dont sell shit to traders as a found out the hard way lmfao

wich 1 of them is this special key?

ancient oar
#

san 216

torn ledge
#

The one with the red bit.

#

Don't sell that key if you plan to do the tasks in this game - 216 is needed for a quest, but it also spawns good stuff:

1 x Weapon box (4x4)
2 x Grenade box
1 x weapon spawn M4A1
Loose loot (Computer Parts, Meds, loaded M4A1 Magazines)
1 x LEDX Spawn```

Tarkov gets dark... If you spawn in a mall back room.. all the darker.

Nighttime can sometimes be veeery dark, but if you look around and see no moonlight or anything like it then thats weird, but if you're a scav you may have spawned indoors looking at a wall

Yes, you can select and play on servers outside of your designated region, the question is if your account is going to get blocked if you keep logging in to the game from other location.

Hi everyone. What is the best ROI for the scav case?

cosmic tinsel
fossil tide
#

Whats better to save. 2 usec armors or gen4?

cosmic tinsel

but all 3 are generally profitable and just sort of comes down to risk/reward

Hmm, okay. So I'm better off just selling the moonshine

I got full stash. And the best choice i have to is save either one. Idk

cosmic tinsel

ok same thing then

#

gen4 is expensive AF to repair

copper shale
#

True, sugar and water is more expensive than the moonshine.

cosmic tinsel
#

but a good condition gen4 is better value/slot than trooper

#

sugar + water + market fee
