8.5 buck is great, but if you want even more range, try the ap20 slugs
used to use 8.5, now I only use ap20...
75+ meter headshots with 1 slug round is the tits
ap20 pens higher level armors too
they seemed kind of expensive last time I checked, but I think I should be able to make some now for a bit less
anyone down to help me w some interchange quests
I heard that 8.5 only needs a single pellet on a dudes head to kill them, which is mainly why i've been using it haha
but i guess it wont do much to face shields before they kill me
@hot osprey its true but if you see that have a face shield try to leg meta them
Magnum buck is really good though
decent early profit maker too, at least for me when I could get matches for less than 15k haha
ap20 slugs just have a very reliably penetration, so youll 1 tap almost all helmets all the time
where as buckshot will can get absorbed by helmets
50/50 on lvl 4
slightly better than 50/50
its like 55
well most people dont run over a level 4 helmet
plus, if you shoot em in the face it doesnt matter
yeah just saying dont be surprised if a lvl 4 eats it
they rarely do
i think the people who are most likely to kill you do 
so i'm at a point where i have a ton of nice weapons and armor/armored rigs(all t4+) but pretty much none of it is found in raid so i'm unable to sell on flea market. i'm too afraid to take the gear in because if i die it's around 700k at least each time that i lose, should i just go in to every raid kitted anyways?
youdont have to go fully kitted...
i take in great guns with no armor all the time... then kill a scav/PMC and take theirs
or i take in small rigs and get bigger ones in raid
https://gyazo.com/4afb9b518bee9ef189f552d8ec5f7c50
but i'm at a point where i really do not have faith in myself to bring in guns like this without good armor/ammo lmao
im so bad
take off pistol grips and *mags to make the guns smaller
yeah but i literally am not sure which grips go where and with what which is why i don't
LOL
put the grips in a spare bag or rig
just drag and drop, if it doesnt drop on to the gun, it's not the right grip
i know nothing about weapon modding, these are all taken off PMCs i've killed or just ratted
or you can just buy other grips
map boss
could also go into the modding screen to see which grips you have available for whatever gun you want to use later on
he headshotted me through a wall, never going to try and fight him again 
you wont have a choice...
swallowed a nade too, idk how he survived 
all raiders/bosses have higher health
bosses can even tank a headshot if you have certain ammos
he was like the only person i put damage into i believe, 23 of 24 shots hit him, ended up dealing a total of 1k damage. idk what happened 
he heals himself, he carries stims
have to kill him quick
broken
that's just his deal..
i'll stick to headshotting gluhkar
gluhar can tank headshots too
Once I watch how ROBN shot Sanitar in the head point blank, and did not kill him
he hasn't tanked any of my headshots so far 
bosses have 70 hp in their heads, if im not mistaken
it was 995 ammo
995 is lower damage, that's why he tanked it
995 do less than 70 damage, bosses have 70 hp in their heads
anyway should be one shot on a normal scav
yep ))
This is a fucking robery
it's only like 10 mil lolz
ur money. now. 
Straight up "Give me all your money"
having to turn in $6k made me want to cry
you should up your Sniper skill up to 5th level then do SBiH and then pay 800000
then you will get 9th level
i know, I did this 4 wipes
i was multiplying the wrong numbers, it's only just over 1 mil roubles
not telling you, it's for the other guy
Anyway, if you want to uprgade your Sniper skill faster you should do as I wrote
did you not see me correct myself? lol
all good lol
i pulled out my calculator for a second because i was confused and didn't catch what you said in chat
oh, it is a different quest, sorry, you will have to pay like $50k for +3 sniper levels later
say syke rn
i need help
@bronze terrace with?
gunsmith part 3 ive done what the wiki does but i cant hand it in
i dont know them intimately, but youtube videos are your savior
Make sure there isn't ammo in the chamber
ive done that
im not new but im just a bit confused
omfg keep on getting one tappppped..... ffs lol, doesnt even do shit for vitality
think im just gonna go on customs and masturbate with some barbed wire for real lmfao
@bronze terrace make sure u have both iron sights
ah shit ty
np
just play the game and your vitality will go up
focus on other quests
still sitting at 21.6/30 to level 3 vitality, once i reach that then i can literally just build for the btc farm and worry slightly less about money, which is why im going for it
but again... it is like 8am now and ive been up all night so i might as well get some sleep instead lmao
hey any1 down to help me farm shoreline for ledx and a ophthalmoscope tryna get thicc case its my first wipe btw so any help is appreciated (DM me im oce)
you can try #pvp-lfg and see if anyone minds you tagging along, you can also craft a ledx
Any experienced players wanna duo and help me learn interchange a little im lvl 35 ik a bit
are there any good streamers who play reserve? I want to see how they handle d2 extract
cause I keep dying in there 😦
Most "good" streamers don't use D-2
HyperRat said he only uses D2 but hasn't played it for a couple of months so it's not in his vods 😦
ayo im litterally in a raid. how tf do i extract. like find the extraction. im brand new
Double tap O to show your extracts. Extracts with ??? MAY be there, may not be. Do not assume they will be. If they don’t have that, they are guaranteed to work. Do that, then lookup a map on your phone or another tab to find where your extract is
you need to have a map up on your 2nd monitor or phone
Bro why do other player scavs on Factory hunt me down like a fucking animal???
cause people shoot anythign that moves?
Like we literally have nothing I just want to sell whatever garbage I spawn with or look for stuff but no we have to fucking extract camp other scavs to get even more useless garbage
is that a good key?
yes
63k
its one of the marked room keys. You can find good stuff in them
ok thx
youd be better off just using it instead of selling it.
i have flea and theres one selling for 1.6 mil but its fence idk lmao
ok so i have a blacked out leg and closest exfil is far asf
get to walkin
NEVER buy from fence... he overcharges for everything
@mossy ravine yeah ill do that
only a few items are cheaper through fence
aight
cheese, splint, bandage, painkillers
then you'll start getting better heals as you raid and upgrade your hideout
and then eventually from flea
what about if i get a blacked out limb tho
CMS or surv12 kit
you cant buy those though, til you get level 10 f
*from flea market
oh damn ok
you can possibly find them though
and also
after my fight
my head and chest health kept going down even after i healed
why
bleeding
how do i stop that
bandages for light bleeds, and esmarch for heavy
some of the better healing options also stop bleeds
but cheese doesnt
how do i get esmarch
can buy from therapist, she sells healing shit
ok
also i put two dog tags and a stack of roubles in my pouch
how do i sell those
or redeme them o whatever
youll eventually save dogtags
but therapist buys them for 360 per level
roubles you keep
that's $
but the roubles is like an item in my inventory not like my actual money. how do i turn it in
i didnt see my cash go up xD
there are roubles, which is the main $, and then there are dollars and euros too
ok
if the dog tags are over lvl 10 keep them, they are used for barters l8r
ok
is it bannable to have a Flea Market Macro ??
probably
is it possible to have a flea market macro with the captcha things?
To buy things before someone else buys it
just click fasttt
Lol not that easy because I know for sure people have bots doing that shit for them
use a macro and find out
How about I send u the macro and u use it and let me know how it goes
no thanks
Interchange map link is down
any one have a mirror or can post it
Hey guys new to tarkov around level 7 and have been looking for some help with some quests and to have some people to raid with
where are you looking to raid at?
Well i need the bronze pocket watch from customs, i know its in dooms but i go there and get tapped and am basically broke lol also need kits for the therapist very early quests but any help appreciated
join 2 man squad 12
Can someone experience what do help me do this. Obviously I know I can’t do it in one day but if you want to help do a little bit of it with me show me the best route the best places to kill them best gun to use etc
hahahhaha just get 100000000 grenades and hope for the best
Lol yeah it is to unlock the tracksuit
ah ok
But u only get 100k for doing it like bruh
lmao
Hi everyone. I'm from a Russian-language server. We need a Sherpa who will teach a beginner to play (EU), he has problems with communication with English-speaking people. He needs help learning the game. He was deceived a lot and lost his trust. ( TheGrimReaper
#1508 )
doing rashala hunt /saferunn if som1 wants to tag along poke me you must be age 18+
How come my operator can't aim his glock
like he holds it so extremely awkwardly
it's basically unusable
i have some task on customs and cant seem to make it out of the raids can anyone help me finish these ?
Screenshot?
idk why its like that but why dont u have back ironsights lol
Oh shit that might be it
maybe
yeah that's it
👍
no wonder I used 4 mags in a shootout against a scav
the bullets didnt hit
I just thought homie was invincible
No iron sights lol
You can buy the iron sights for around 5k from the traders, odds are someone took em off and fleaed the glock that way
note to self: please don't remove ironsights
Oh, yeah don't do that lol
this is art right here
professional gamer moment
is it possible to put the vudu 1-6 scope on the dvl
With 30mm ring I think
Good
can someone help me get some money?
nah
omg what happend
why
if i was u i would reset ur account
i can buy beta container anyway
or make quest for epsilon
but i need kit to play with so i can kil pmc
what he said
yo basically brand new to the game i bought this game when it first released but have put only like 2-3 hours into it in the past years.
Anyone interested in showing me the ropes xD
Gonna call bullshit on this. I assume your container is just a little further down in the list, or you deleted it for shits n giggles. Either way, not sure what you're trying to accomplish outside of begging for money.
come into voice
Why?
if you want to see whats down of stash
why would u remove ur case
Like I said, it's either further down, or you deleted it.
Seeing it's not further down isn't going to change my mind
For laughs. For 'lulz'
wait so why did u get rid of it???
bruh but why did u get rid off ur container
There's no good reason to delete the container.
fair enough to anything else but why ur container

oh fuuuck, that mustve been why my dude was holding some M700 I found really weirdly, felt like playing Fallout 3 or something lol
hi guys i was asking my self if someone could help me and my friend out to learn the ropes of this game we are both level 6 atm and we really struggle to make kills/extract
have you ever considered.... becoming a rat
If the fully geared dude knows you're there, you aren't ratting correctly
bruh
Truth.
truf
Imagine being a filthy rat I made 16 million and never Rat in my hole 23 days of playing don’t see the point in it
This guys a dumb ass he just want attention or money 💰
imagine being a beggar in tarkov lol
ratting is not exactly what i asked for just someone who could learn me the ropes
beginners assistance is basically go rat and find it out for yourself lol
yea seeking for ESCAPE FROM TARKOV PLAYERS attention
XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Don’t see the point in deleting you secure container than begging money
i got bug and BSG didnt help me so im here
What bug 🐜
hard to guess isnt it
🙂
That you hole stash just goes alway and leaves u with 74$ ok buddy
Honest tips for learning the ropes, use your scav to learn new maps. While playing as a pmc, it is ok to run away from a firefight if you are outmatched. Cach runs are great for money
Does anyone know where the second mini bus is on interchange?
doing killa hunt anny 1 wanne join can learn you the map your age must be 18+
@bold kernel there are 3. 2 are in the underground parking lot, and the 3rd is in the Lot next to Oli
I was able to find the 1st and 3rd but not 2nd and I then got killed by a pmc
i dont recall which are which
there is one in the underground "hall", one is by the break between the 2 underground areas (by safe room extract)
I got that one I believe
did you get 2 in the underground?
hey guys brand new to the game and pretty new to pc honestly struggling where do i ask for help tia
depends waht you wanne now
this place is a good start@ebon terrace There is also a Sherpa discord for help as well (link is pinned in this channel) What kind of help do you need?
all the help lol struggling with extracting mostly and and item value the list goes on haha
extraction whereabouts
Well, a few things to keep in mind. Best way to learn the map is to run it as your scav. Find a map (check the tarkov wiki, there are many maps for each map in the game) and run it.
Scavs are free gear.
another thing to keep in mind about tarkov. Ammo matters way more then the gun
should i do offline mode too obviously
between your scav raids, yes.
yeah realised about the ammo soo many types
but you will want to run your PMC as soon as you feel semi confident. You will die... A lot. but if you want to level up (and you do) then you need to run him
let me see if it will let me post this pic..
that shows the best ammo, as well as the OK to run if your on a budget ammo
Other ammos arnt necessarily bad, some are used in the leg meta (aiming for the legs to kill, avoiding armor)
but for most players, these are considered the better rounds
i see thanks fore your help man
np. if you have any questions, feel free to @ me
with regards to selling things should i just sell everything ?
I have no stash space left thats with storing things inside things
so.. Yes and no... Until you hit lvl 10, you dont have access to the flea market, where stuff can go for Waaay more. In addition, you need to save some stuff for your hideout.
if you want, I can see if i cant help you clear some space
yeah thanks that would be great will you be online later ?
I sell all my gear except backpacks because i cant have gear fear if i have no gear
probably

lol @blissful void
that's one way to deal with it ...
just going to see my daughter and ill be on
the first wipe is the worse for hoarding gear. After a while you get a feel for what is valuable, what you need, and what you like running. after that, its easier to keep space free
ok. @ me or DM me and if im around and free ill help ya later.
hahaha
biggest tip in this game is just keeping the equipment you will run, the found in raids you need for quests, and selling the rest off (post hideout upgrades)
junkbox helps alot
buy off the flea for cheaper than therapist cost often by a lot
the rest youll find out as you browse the open market, and youll see whats innately valuable
quests are great xp but im unable to extract from anywhere except factory 
U are able to exctract alive from factory? 
You don't lose ur melee weapon when you die correct?
yeah my extract rate went from 10% to 24% and my KD went from .26 to .96

Doing quests could use some help
Trying to do some offline but recently when I put it to horde on factory nothing spawns :/ anyone know what might be the problem?
LISTEN I NEED MAJOR FUCKIN HELP
im at absolute zero money and i am at 1 fuckin HP every scav run i do to try to get literally anything to sell i just get killed by pscavs or pmc's
What map you trying to scav on?
You play on NA?
The sales aren't common so probably just around the holidays I would keep an eye out
there's a word
23 feb is holiday in Russia, but I do not see any discount announcements
next holiday is 8 march, but I doubt that there will be discount too
F
im trying reserve cause it feels like the best for quick money but its not working
i need a sugar daddy
There is a bug currently, you need to put it on the setting below horde it fixxed it for me
literally doing hatchet runs cause i cant loose anything
My duo has been destroying with mp7 them
Yea that worked :c oh well hope they fix it soon. I always play on horde mode.
Wanna do a quick scav run? Easy money just hit power run back to bunkers kill the raiders and exfil, its like 200k+ everytime
im in south korea rn so idk if ill have good connection to ur server but im down to try
fyi i literall wont have anything
You spawn with gear as scav
oof duh lol im tired bro
hey guys , does anyone have jaeger levelled up this wipe ?
Someone wanna scav run with me?
should i buy my graphics card for the farm
Its up to you. ATM with prices, i save 2 bitcoins, sell them, and buy a GPU, but that is me. The wiki actually has a breakdown on how long it takes to make back the money if you buy them.. I think it was if you had buy all 50, it pays itself off after 30 something days
https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Hideout if you go to the bottom, under additional info, and expand the table it shows you
How do i find out where the extracts are?
@lavish schooner If you go to the wiki i linked above, and search for the map you are going to run, they will show you extract locations are
is there a case where you can put gun attachments?
Items Case, THICC Items Case, Weapons Case and THICC Weapons Case all accept weapon attachments.
Magazines, if you count those, can go in the Magazine Case.
yyeah idk if i can afford it
i bought a lucky scav junkbox
so i can put in all the goodies and start doing hideout upgrades without losing inv space
You get a THICC Weapons Case when you hit level 40 (if you have all traders maxed) and you can get a THICC Item Case from completing one of Therapists quests
You get a few other cases n such along the way from other traders but those are the two big ones
health care privacy or something
whoops
I had to free up space for my stash and at the time I didn't know what they actually did
Now that I bough the Lucky Scav I can stop doing that
But half of my stash is literally attachments and mags lol
You've got plenty of time before that quests, so just make sure you keep 2 when you find em
The LEDX you can craft
im still pt 1
That's a pretty easy one tbf.
btw i just bought a magbox feels like i need it
You can also craft magboxes in hideout
Using two empty expeditionary containers and some assorted other things.
Think it's metal cutting scissors, 5 bolts, 5 screws and a wrench...I think...
What’s the point of crafting things when almost all the time it cost more money and time to craft it than actually buy the item off the market
its like 300-400k cheaper to build a scav case
if your not counting the fuel it costs to craft
and if you are using blue fuel to run your gen, it drops the price even more using the empties
some things yea, but not all of them. If you look, there are plenty of crafts that make you $$
I made 2mil yesterday alone in the crafts i set up between raids
anyone want to help a noob get his pocketwatch?
is that Customs?
@sour heron yeah
I know how to do the quest I just kind of want some moral support
@alpine meteor you still need help?
also why hasnt this upgraded yet? its stuck at 0?
I bought usd off him
someone told me to buy usd and then offer the dollars back for roubles
He had significant armor on, yeah?
cannot kick myself too hard then...
I just got aim higher too.. more towards the head
what were you shooting
and yes, head taps are the best thing you can do in this game
how do i kill mf 7 pmc when there all in mf squads
BP's
you dont. you hear 5 sets of footsteps you GTFO
XD
squads move slower than solos
bro i only run customs its the map i die less in XD
because they have to move as slow as their lowest endurance player, and they gotta keep checkin on each other
so i go dorms for marked room
some days i killed 2-3 people sometimes i die with 400 bullets in me
is it worth paying 6 mil for ultra med key on interchange?
BP's in AK..
545?
but VERY close range
or 762
i use bs rounds on ak
Trying to see how I can check my loadout history...
bull shit rounds as i call them
what effect does more ergonomics have on a weapon system?
I guess I can start using Presets
I feel ready now.
faster ADSing, lower stamina consumption while adsing
very nice
anyone want to join me and my friend on scav runs on reserve ? were killing raiders
but wwe have to use japan server due to my location, im playing with a guy in NA and his ping isnt too bad
yeah no
: (
well offer still stands to anyone wanting to join us we could use a third since i keep dying lol
thank you for the offer.
It has been raining for days on these maps.. lol
Nice.. I got a PMC kill on my scav run at least.. headshot with shotgun and medium range
2v1 to boot...
If I was a more confident player I would join you.
I am working on my PvP confidence
bro were not confident either lol
sounds good brother
is your Scav run timer avail?
i was on interchange as scav just now - found killa dead with like 3 pmcs next to him - looted it all - raider pops out of nowhere and 1taps me
rip
@ancient star I kept the usd as I didn't need roubles and I did that to max level
Doesn't really matter
tbh if you are going shotgun either try out the mp-153 or the saiga
and if you are using shotgun, either run Magnum buck (buckshot) grizzly flechette rounds, or ap20 slugs
Okay. I am doing a sniper run but gonna bring a Saiga then for getting cornered.
kk
haha a shotgun with ap20 is basically a sniper
it DOES work absolutely fine to take out sniper scavs on roofs... with headshots... decent scope is needed, however
If you are doing the one quest where you need hs shotgun kills on shoreline
I just got really close up to the scavs and headshot them with magnum buck
yo question i spawned in as a scav with shotgun i hit a pmc pretty bad but i died
on dmg dealt to armor it said 898 armor
how is that possible
i only fight 1 pmc
bad ammo against good armor
when i did 898 dmg to his armor
that means his armor is fucked or not
or how does this work
Doesnt have to be fucked. Its pretty much just However much Dmg the Armor stopped.
So if you have a low armor dmg/pen round and high flesh it would obv Stop alot more boolets
were you shooting star shells? coz THAT really messed me up once... lol
anybody wanna help me make money? 😭
hey jake i would join you
im also level 5
ok dm me
Is a gold TT worth anything?
I could not make sense of Woods maps with some of my go-to sites. Found this one. Will help with extractions. Sharing in case other want.
https://i.imgur.com/fIxBdU8.png
yeah it's upside down and missing 2/3 of the map
That being said, i did expect it to be a rick roll
It actually made sense to me doing my first scav run.. and help me get organized on my extract.
if you stay on the southern half of the map some of the extracts are accurate
big tip for woods
good luck finding car/cliff though
if you see a mountain background you are outskirts side
https://tarkov-tools.com/map/woods is the most accurate up to date map
Visualization of all ammo types in Escape from Tarkov, along with maps and other great tools
if you see power plant you are un roadblock side
bring a friend the first time, get the compass asap if you're competant at land nav
can someone help me install the game its not working
anybody wanna help me out, im lvl 8 basically dont know any maps, but yk tryna make some money
lemme know if you down
it can be a pain but learning the maps is a big part of figuring this game out
if anyone needs help lmk ill run some raids / answer questions
na its should be fine
if anyone needs a guide, quest help, or just want to learn the game cause you're new DM me, ill be glad to help! currently only able to help NA due to ping

Anyone around? Brand new to the game, have a few beginners tasks to do or happy to just run raids and learn.
what set up do u suggest, in terms of armor + vest + helmet
whats the best to run with
Depend on how much roubles you have and ur style
If you want a trusty kit that makes sure you don’t die go for Alytn and gen4
Is a gold TT worth anything
Golden tt found in raid is a quest item you need
Late to wipe only lvl 4 if anyone’s willing to help can handle myself just kinda need a guide to show me where the good loot is xD
not altyn + slick/hgrid?
Slick or hgrid is only for thorax, your dead af if you wear those, gen4 is heavy but it can protect arms thorax and stomach
I'm new to this game and can never find the extraction point and already lost most of my equipment. Help me please.....😢
that + altyn + weapon is gonna have me start with almost 40 kg
straight off the bat
ay lmao

How does the fence work? is it like online and everybody can buy from it
NOt talking about the flea market
but the fence
anyone else have scenarios where they solo a map.. take out 3, 4 scavs throughout.. even Pvp engagements.. and then that Scav at extraction kills you with all your hard earned loot????
Yup all the time
trying to do the tarkov shooter quest and its hard trying to pick out individual pixels with an iron sight, how do i make my game clearer?
I would think I was playing a different game if that didnt happen
🙂 thanks. glad I am not alone. so frustrating lol
love this game. glad I discovered it.
so uh i need help...
just a heads up for anyone doing Shooter born in heaven for reserve just snipe into the gpu room
with?
starting to get a feel (kill) for this game lol
that scope is aids if ur using it for the first time
should i be focusing on a shooter born in heaven if i still dont have peacekeeper missions?
whats wrong with this for gunsmith pt1
recoil
yes first time
what do i need to fix?
you will get a few of the sbih kills just by playing normally, i wouldn't stress about it
u got flea market?
no im only level 8
and jaeger?
ok
How do u turn items in stash sideways?
r
ah ty
R
in mecanic or skier i think one of thme has a trade up for a mp 133 handguard
get that
also remember Middle mouse click to collapse some guns
then from peacekeaper get the kac vertical pistol grip
and place it on the new mp133 handguard
and switch it
whats the mp 133 handguard look like cant find it
np
i dont have an hdd lmfao so ii have to get one but thank you
What are ms2000 markers for? I found two on a dead guys body?
pretty easy to find
i have one laying around
nice
the handgurad
o
for the hdd search inside of pc's
go scav on interchange and go to computer rooms near oli
nice
i need 8k xp for level 10 now
im brand new, any tips?
@steady forum scavving is VERY helpful for loot
in my experience i mainly scav and thats where almost all of my sstuff came from
ive been doing alright on "customs" but then i switch over to pmc and get rocked
Play slow and use your ears
just takes time to learn maps but once you learn youll do really good
i can get plenty of kills on "factory" but can never get far enough to extractr
seems like i'll kill a few but everytime i go to loot a player i get merked
Factory is harder to run honestly really good for so
Xp*
One thing to realize is if you kill someone then someone else is probably otw to kill you
Especially in factory
what is the best beginner map for pmc?
Interchange has been good for me
Scav maps and learn how they work and how to navigate
scav ive gotten a handle of after watching a few youtube videos but seems like everytime I spawn into PMC i get rocked
shoreline best for beginners for sure
Then decide
Thanks for all the advice guys. I appreciate it
labs 😎
funny
make sure to put all your stuff inside your backpack before you go into raid, also insure all ur stuff if you are going labs 😎
forreals tho stay away from that map
I main Shoreline for PMC and Customs for Scav runs
aww yeah first gpu of the day
wooot hoooyah
nice man
I have 3 days until my bitcoin farm is built
so I plan on straight grinding interchange
yeah I have like 6 mil so ill buy a few aswell
why the fuck do i keep getting such bad frame lag
like my game just randomly freezes 24/7 and ruins runs
16
oh. that isnt it then
SSD or HDD?
i play HDD 32 GB ram and have no issues loading or freezing
but for some reason i just freeze and get really bad frames leading to me losing fights/dying a lot
I had the game on my HDD, but I spawned in way later than my teammates. So i moved the game to my SSD
i usually load in under 1 min 30 so im ok
m.2 for the win
if you put graphics on low it could be drawing more power from the cpu instead of the gpu @rustic plank
yeah I bought a m.2 specifically for this game
so what do i change to stop it
what is an m.2? i would love an upgrade
It's an ssd that connects straight to your motherboard
make sure you're motherboard can support one
I am running Overclocked NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB [Display adapter]
okay cool
I am on an old Crucial SATA SSD
this game uses a lot of memory as well, I would recommend having at least 16gb in your pc, Also from what I've been told make sure you have vsync checked in your graphics settings this means it's "off" unless that's been fixed
yep mine is off
I have 32gb of ram but it adds nothing so I pulled it out, and have the 16gb.
check the vsync box
What’s the chance of green keycard from 85k?
gonna try Ultra on the shadows quality too
not high at all
Ever gotten anything good from scav case?
is there ever more than 1 scav with the same name in a raid?
no
@rustic plank you might have a bottleneck
the game is CPU heavy so you need a decent CPU, GPU dont matter as much, the game can run great on a basic GT 960
ty. Gonna learn this map.
theres an offline mode?
yes
you still have to have internet connection @chilly carbon but you can go offline so nothing counts, you gain no XP and none of your gear is used or lost
Jaeger fuel refresh is up guys
Get it while it's hot
LFG Customs NA
@rustic plank I could help you further, but I need to know your system specs, I have an i7-3770 which is an old CPU its 3rd gen for frick sakes lol its from 2010 or 2012, but I have DDr3 RAM, 24 gigs of it, and I have a GTX 1070, but I run all my settings on max and I get 60 FPS
its because my GPU is way better than my CPU so it bottlenecks the CPU so in order to get the best performance possible for my machine I have to max all the settings out to put more focus on my GPU since the game is naturally CPU intensive
what's up kyborah
@pale shoal @sour heron the trick for keeping it on or turning it off only matters if you plan to go over the 120 cap, also if your monitor refresh rate is only 60 or 90 or 120 or 144, unlocking it doesnt matter much
@jaunty spire hello
You helping some people out?
trying to lol
yoooo anyone up for a scav run??
ya
@pale shoal @sour heron but if you have a high refresh rate monitor and you can get higher than 120 FPS in the game, if you have an Nvidia GPU you turn off verticle sync in your Nvidia control panel but turn it on in game, and it gives the appearance that you can go over the 120 cap for FPS
@chilly carbon u up for it??
ya
im thinking about getting tarkov, ive watched a ton of youtube videos but i feel i need to talk to someone about it. its alot of money and i want to play it alot
but i dont get the basics
can someone explain
I think it's better to look for a video
yeah just type escape from tarkov beginner's guide on youtube
Hello!, level 24 here. Ive been trying to play solo and always end up dying. Is there anyway i can get some help or even a team mate to show me how to survive?
Try #pvp-lfg!
You could also try joining a lobby by yourself in one of the 0/2 channels and wait for a bit
where do i find pm pistol, i've been looking for the last one for my punisher part 5 quest for 3 days now, is there any known spawn that the pm pistol spawns
Thanks man ill have a look
Kill scavs for it - And look in weapon boxes
You could try spamming factory scav
Quick in quick out just check scavs
i've legit only been going factory and looting the weapon boxes there and i've found like 5 pm (t)
okay gonna give it a go for a few hours
Don't worry I ran like 15 raids until I found my last one
Then the raid after I found 2 in a row
LMAO
hey when you type that, does mine come up at all? The one I made? lol
Search for it in Incognito mode, will tell you what other people see
Cntrl+shift+n
ehh I already tried, its still muddled
like my Recoil reduction one and my PC optimization one are like almost first or really high on the list, but my beginners guide doesnt seem to always consistently show up high
like if I look on my phone in incognito its different, if I look on my Fiancee's PC its different
Both on incognito?
yes
Interesting
I even tried using my Phone Data plan
The recoil one and PC optimization one are always showing
....
but I think its because those both already have 3k views so the algorithm already promotes them but my beginners guide doesnt seem to be promoting as much
Looks cool =p
lol, is the MOE maybe for a task for gunsmith? maybe a low level player needed it
🤷 its on peace 2
some people struggle to get peacekeeper 2
especially if they are new
getting those 7 USEC can be troublesome for some people
good point.
So even though I'm a lvl 22. Would I still be able to get help with the game?
My first wipe on the game as well
I mean yea.
you get get help any time in here! most of the people who help out
Oh okay lol
@marsh bridge yeah dude there is this one guy who lurks a lot and he is like level 38 or something and always talks about how the 22 million roubles they have is not enough
if he can be here seeking assistance, i believe anyone can lol
or they, if I need to be politically correct
Got out of my scav run loaded! now having issues with space and ammo types/mags to keep, any types to get rid of/save without a thought?
any that you can buy off the vendors are mags you dont need to keep
newer player LF a sherpa duo or group
ammo is quite a long list, but for 5.45 if its not BP, BT, BS, 7n39/Igolnik then toss it
I mostly use BT for 5.45 and it treats me very well
@echo phoenix what level and did you lose EVERYTHING? I’m pretty new too but I can try to help you
@echo phoenix if u are super new
And dont have a nice level or tasks
Just reset the account
Okay how do I do that? I’m only level 3
Yup
Yeah I would just reset and start from square one
On website
Go to the eft website
U can reset the account
@echo phoenix scav runs help a lot I would just use scav on maps and run with really low gear
And don’t quit on the game cause once you learn it’s really fun
newer player LF a sherpa duo or group
Right, I was reading about that. I love it even though I’m losing all the time I just wanna get better
Hard to play solo
I keep jumping in groups and they kill me right off the bat
Good spirit 
One map I HIGHLY recommend to scav on is interchange just scav
Ah
Are you doing it without being in a discord with them?
Cause before a map when it says lfg if you get invited they’re probably just gonna kill you
I would never join an invite off the in game lfg
I’m new to pc gaming in general, all I have played is Warzone but it’s getting boring
when low on cash, i've been scavving night time interchange with great success. Clean out goshan and the back shelves, bop a few scavs and extract at emercom. Most of the time I only get 100-150k worth of loot, but at least i survive like 4 out of 5 raids.
I like to run near scav camp kill the scavs check for keys then run the stash’s near the railroads/otw to extract
@rustic plank you read my PC optimization recommendations to you right?
Yes
A good scav to learn is Reserve as well
I’ll my specs really
100k scav is a good run. you're in #beginners-assistance
@rustic plank I have DM you so its easier to communicate
Most of the time u spawn with 60 or 70k worth of shit
@torn surge i can help you out if your up to be backseat gamed a bit, i enjoy playing tetris with my stash kek
@dawn geyser read the second part lol
Then no need to even type that!
There is, if u want to improve you need yo know whats good and what is not
You not gonna improve with 100 x 100k scav runs
U will improve if u slowly up the stake, learn loot spawns etc
Scav runs teach you those things
If you’re gonna be nothing but negative to mostly new players go to #eft-chat
No need for this type of stuff in #beginners-assistance
i think just playing the game in general helps you improve :D, anything is better tha nnothing
People learn at their own pace so no need to flex that you make money
Cause no one here cares really
If u would like to quote the message that is breaking the rules of this chat
Go ahead
There are better ways of getting that message across Vinctx - You can say eventually you'll get to scav runs over 500k
even now, after 300+ hours of being a reserve hatchling (i know worst player etc etc) i still find new routes around the maps that are more efficient
If not, then you are out of luck
or, routes that keep me alive
It’s not you’re just being a cunt
Let's all calm down fellas
Noted, anything else you would like to add? Because you are the one bringing nothing to this chat right now:)
He just worded his sentence badly
where are the most common graphics card spawns?
lmao anything over 1 ruble is good because its profit
Interchange, reserve drop room
@chrome raptor 3 techstores on interchange
@chrome raptor interchange tech stores or dropdown on reserve
Techno,techlight and rassmusen
anyone wanna scav run??
ty
german is pretty good aswell, along with tts
Most of the time, u will find at least one
i'm eu
@median kraken yup, but the golden trio of tech stores should be the priority
kinda lame having to give 3 to mecanic
You dont have to
not imo, german and tts being less contested helps getting them out
Unless u want kappa
and the idea sideroom
If you have bitcoin farm, I would put the found in raid GPU's in there
Then when you're ready for Kappa
You can take them back out, they are stil lfound in raid
i dont want kappa but dont u have to do those quests to get more quests?
Both quests u get after this one
yeah, but no big money rewards behind them
from what i remember, there isnt another btc reward behind that specific farming step
unless im wrong
@median kraken 6 btc and 1 gpu in total
And reap-ir
If u count the reward from both quests
alright, well 3 turnins is alright but the turnins after is pretty steep
can anyone help me on interchange
Not really familiar around the map
do you have to ping me with every response?
The other one is VPX and reader module
All of them u can craft
So overall, you earn money
But u need level 30 and 35 to even accept those quests
So if u are below that. Not worth it

It is a way to keep conversations organized. Similar to Slack, if you use that at work.
Hunter M61's
oh yeah i've used slack, but at least you did the quoting method :D, cleaner that way
@dawn geyser ash is also a good option kek
How much is that weapon
yeh, does what the dtmdr 7.62 does way cheaper
Ash 12 has 1 downside which dtmdr does not have
Bullet velocity on ash 12 is terrible
Unless u memorise the bullet drop pattern of ash 12 or have the perfect zeroing, u will miss at longer ranges
does that matter when fighting killa, however, no kek
yes,
How is that budget
30k from prapor 4
2x vodka
20k a mag
ammo is 600 roubles a round
dt mdr is 150k kek
LF someone experienced to help me with some Shoreline tasks
@median kraken yeah prapor 4
consistancy with hunter is MUCH lower.
prapor 4 is the first l4 i had, before peace kek
alright, but either way, 60k on flea for it, which is STILL cheaper than dt. and has more consistancy for melting him than hunter
Enlighten me
because you have to hit every shot
Huh?
heres the thing
pull straight down on ash
it 2hits his thorax
hunter 3hits, and you have to have those shots pen
ash has 20
t6 faceshield be like
And u get a nice full hp killa armour
His helmet is level 4
And m61 goes thru level 6 fshield as well
Just needs 2 shots sometimes
when does he face away from you in a solo
newer player LF long term duo or group
and you're hitting only headshots on hi,?
Last 12 kills?
Killa is bugged right now
He usually sits in the open
Waiting to get tapped
i dont really feel like arguing with you, ash is one of the best options, and if you have prapor 4, is a much better option than hunter from its full auto 20r versatility and cheap ammunition
