what do I do

[delicate siren]

here's a video of the recoil

I feel there's some moments when having a m4 would keep me alive instead of having a DT-MDR in resort

and i've died because of it

enough to warrent spending 50k more

[wispy glade]

M4 in resort feels wrong for the cqb

[delicate siren]

pew PEw

I run Altyn with slick

XD I realize now that im doing it wrong

I just like 5.56 ok?

[dire matrix]

if you are in close range engagements id supress my gun. its pretty easy to lose someone in muzzle flash

[sour heron]

I keep getting sniped here. when trying to get from WH4 to RUAF Roadblock. what to do?

[dire matrix]

its out of bounds

if you go too far the game kills you

[sour heron]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[dire matrix]

when you die it just says killed right?

or maybe sniper shot

[sour heron]

yes. just killed

never that it was a PMC or scav sniper

[dire matrix]

yeah its the map killing you for going out of bounds

[sour heron]

alright well I won't use that route behind old gas station anymore.

cause I just die...

[dire matrix]

you can

just dont go past the last train car

[wispy glade]

go under the train and just wrap around compound

thats what I do

[dire matrix]

stuck to the front of it

[sour heron]

okay. cross the tracks. got it

[wispy glade]

You can go left from compound and just hug the wall, its just that part before it really

[dire matrix]

theres a sign and a body on the tracks

if you go past them it kills you

[sour heron]

yeah.. I must be going down near the crosshairs.

[dire matrix]

the dead scav is the edge of the kill zone

[bold kernel]

If I craft cases can I sell them on flea?

[wispy glade]

yes

[drifting jolt]

anything you make in hideout can be sold on flea

[sour heron]

k

@wispy glade ty

[bold kernel]

Actually nvm forgot the 50k fees

xD

Is my M4 any good for the price ( a bit under 200k )?

[opaque gale]

Looking for somone who can sherpa me on shoreline for some quests. Im lvl 43 with a 4.2kd but I dont know shoreline. Id be willing to pay for help. I could 100% do this myself but it would be way faster with help. Dm me

[dire matrix]

put on a lonestar tx-15 upper receiver

[shut cairn]

mosin or sks

[drifting jolt]

shoreline is arguably the easiest large map to learn... there's not many points of interest

you can also do offline raids...

[bold kernel]

Lightweight Upper for Tx15?

[dire matrix]

yup

[bold kernel]

kk

[dire matrix]

it should only be like 17k

[opaque gale]

thanks for the input

[drifting jolt]

the whole right side of hte map is empty

[bold kernel]

yea found it for 15k

what's the difference?

[sour heron]

except I am there. Ready to tap you at my Hidden Caches. 🐦

[urban kite]

does anyone by anychance know if rooms 222 221 220 are all connected

[dire matrix]

east or west

[urban kite]

west

[dire matrix]

222, 218 and 221 are connected

[sour heron]

isnt 221 the balcony key?

[urban kite]

i have keys 222 221 220 and 218

[dire matrix]

idk, thats what the wiki says

[urban kite]

which key is redundant

[dire matrix]

look up the keys on the wiki

itll give you a better answer than looking here

[sour heron]

I never found a use for 221 since I have 222

[urban kite]

fair heres just quicker response lol

[sour heron]

well.. here is just fellow noobs lol.. I ran those keys 1x now

[urban kite]

i use it more of general quick infromation for maps i dont run alot ie shoreline keys XD being the only map i despise

[sour heron]

I love Shoreline. my main map.

But I got to Spa maybe 4% of the time.

Why don't you like it?

[urban kite]

all the good loot is on resort and you can only make it if you have sj6 cracked out stamina/ good spawns if you get a bad spawn might as well reset , its really big it takes 3 minutes just to cross give or take range is key so if you cant hit shots at range best of luck

and all the thermal runners too

thats why woods is kinda annoying cause of thermal runners but other than that woods is fine

[zealous cape]

looking to team up for search mission in woods or delivery from the past in factory, if anyone needs these done or wants to help hmu!

[dawn geyser]

Try #pvp-lfg

[zealous cape]

ty

[fiery marten]

Somebody want to squad with me on customs? I'm lvl 10 but good

[dawn geyser]

Try #pvp-lfg

[fiery marten]

Thanks (:

[rustic plank]

Interchange is the easiest money ever

[cosmic tinsel]

interchange beeg beeg money

[dawn geyser]

Easy if you 🐀

[rustic plank]

Die 3-4 times and spend 40k to get my health back then find a Tetriz and graphics card while hatchet running

Ez money

[cosmic tinsel]

i just hate the lighting so i never go

[rustic plank]

It’s just free money

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah its good if you need money

fsure

[scarlet sorrel]

I just bought the standard edition of the game 3 days ago, now that there's a sale going should I upgrade to EoD?

[dawn geyser]

Hatchet runners

[cosmic tinsel]

hatchet runners = free xp

[light cipher]

Can you buy flea market items to complete quests?

[cosmic tinsel]

as long as the item isn't required to be found in raid

[light cipher]

ahhh, though so. Thx

Thought*

[cosmic tinsel]

a lot of quests have added FiR language this wipe, unfortunately

used to be you could just pay thru a ton of quests ha

[light cipher]

rough to be a newbie nowadays

[cosmic tinsel]

well, the flip side is they added a TON of hideout crafts

private clinic got a lot easier, for example

[light cipher]

but i can buy screws, wires, etc for hideout?

[cosmic tinsel]

hideout crafts = FiR

yes

hideout upgrades and crafts dont care about FiR

[light cipher]

awesome! Thanks my dude

[cosmic tinsel]

and then a ton of things that you need for quests can be crafted in hideout

[light cipher]

that i noticed

[cosmic tinsel]

which is basically flea market w extra steps but it feels better

[rustic plank]

being below level 10 FUCKING BLOWS but once you get flea market you feel much better

in my opinion

its my first wipe too

[light cipher]

I hit level 10 last night, what a journey as a first wipe player

[bold kernel]

YEAH life until Lvl10 was hell
am level 14 now and my god does the flea make a difference

[drifting jolt]

congrats my friend.. a lot of people give up before 10

[dawn geyser]

Now you know everyones first 10 level struggles ; now you grew out of your huggies ; welcome to tarkov

[light cipher]

this game is crack

[cosmic tinsel]

highest highs and lowest lows of any game ive played

[sour heron]

what part of Woods is this?

[dawn geyser]

West side above Zb-014

[light cipher]

^

[bold kernel]

should be close to zb014 near scav house

[sour heron]

ok .. thought I was about near my Outskirts extract. ty

[urban kite]

yes to all of the above

[dawn geyser]

Just head straight

[urban kite]

you are

[bold kernel]

you're not far

[shut cairn]

how much more does the compass help on maps like woods

it sucks ass trying to get around

[light cipher]

Been mostly using the SKS for my fist 10 levels with PS ammo. Any recommendations for a decent, inexpensive loadout. I only have about 4 mill.

[dawn geyser]

Very much so for starters

[shut cairn]

ok

makes me want to do the prapor quest more

i never know where i am

i hate woods

[bold kernel]

May be wrong but just follow the road basically ( try to keep your distance to scav house tho )

[dawn geyser]

Do it! Very worth it

[dawn geyser]

You got it

[bold kernel]

nice

Is the AACPC good? bunch of my friends run it but that 270k better be justified

[dawn geyser]

Very good

[bold kernel]

Will it stop PS rounds?

[dawn geyser]

It will tank a good amount of 7.62 yes

[bold kernel]

nice ok

[dawn geyser]

If you are referring to 5.45 it doesn't do much vs it

[shut cairn]

is this by scav bunker

i think i saw the power station

im trying to get to the convoy and usec camp

[wispy glade]

its the small mill

[shut cairn]

wait

[wispy glade]

east middle of the map

[shut cairn]

im on the other side

[bold kernel]

looks like the old sawmill?
Off in the distance I think I can see the factory

[wispy glade]

yes

[shut cairn]

damn

gotta haul ass then\

[wispy glade]

just wrap around the north u can loot the marked circle

[bold kernel]

basically you're far away @shut cairn

[sour heron]

thanks. yep I got sidetracked over to the lumber pile but got turned around and extracted.

[bold kernel]

nice good job

[sour heron]

Woods is my third map. Shoreline, Customs, Woods.

[bold kernel]

I hate woods ngl

[sour heron]

crazy good game. something about all or nothing reward systems lol

[bold kernel]

Reserve and Customs are my go to maps

[shut cairn]

what is this place

im just going to the left side of big mountain

and hoping i get there

[bold kernel]

yep tarkov is stronger than crack for me

@shut cairn take a look at what I sent you

[shut cairn]

ok

i can confirm that i am lost as fuck

nvm

ik where i am now

[light cipher]

any hideout priorities early on?

[bold kernel]

I'm level 14 and have the generator, workbench, med station and nutrition unit

[light cipher]

Full levels?!?!

[chrome steeple]

lavatories also pretty handy

[sour heron]

my friend introduced me to shooting range.

[bold kernel]

yep toilet too

[chrome steeple]

piss hole

[sour heron]

sort icons disappeared on boxes. will relog

ahhh I bet it is because I am in scav transfer mode

[smoky wing]

@light cipher BTC

And every requirement for it

Because most hideout stuff does not make money now

Like nutrition for example

So just get the BTC requirements step by step

[rustic plank]

what upgrade gives gamma?

container

76 dollars not worth

[cosmic tinsel]

its also a season pass

fwiw

what that means, i dont know

[smoky wing]

"Not worth" is a matter of how much you play

Eod gives you a huge head start

[rustic plank]

i play a lot but 76 is too much

[smoky wing]

More than 20MLN roubles

Of headstart to be exact

So seems kinda worth it to me

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah worth is super personal

[elfin gale]

"too much" and "not worth" is very personal indeed

[sour heron]

one thing I know.. Hideout volume is too loud. I find myself avoiding it. 🤣

[elfin gale]

you can lower it in your options

[cosmic tinsel]

its got its own volume slider in the settings iirc

[sour heron]

oh wow 👀

[rustic plank]

what exactly changes from standard edition to eod

cause if im gonna spend 76 bucks i need to know

[light cipher]

more stash space, a bunch of gear and gamma container

[wispy glade]

golden nametag

[light cipher]

I just upgraded myself.

[wispy glade]

""Upcoming dlc for free ""

[rustic plank]

worht it chace?

[drifting jolt]

@rustic plank your stash increases by 400 slots

[light cipher]

I mean, to me, Yes, I plan on playing a bit

But depends on your intentions

[smoky wing]

Eod is a huge headstart

Worth around 25MLN per wipe

[light cipher]

As someone mentioned earlier, "worth it" is personal

[smoky wing]

Stash upgrade alone

Is 18Mln roubles

[light cipher]

Stash upgrade was huge, would have made my life much easier from 1-10

[smoky wing]

Quicker BTC farm
Quicker traders levels

More guns when u reset i belive

A golden nickname and best of them all. Gamma

[light cipher]

Ohhh, that's why my name is gold now

[rustic plank]

honestly i might

[wispy glade]

I upgraded for gamma alone :(

[light cipher]

I paid in CND $, shit was more than I wanted to pay, but I just yolo'd it

[smoky wing]

Definitely worth it

Gamma is 2/3rd(depends on situation/map) container in the game

Only losing to epsilon on reserve and kappa

[rustic plank]

stash space alone makes it worth

[naive depot]

if you play the game a fuckton it absolutely is

but unless you're putting insane hours into this game it's not

[rustic plank]

i might

i have been playing a lot

[elfin gale]

@light cipher true in CND it's quite a lot lol

[naive depot]

i put in over 4500 raids last year alone

[torn matrix]

just spent 3 mil on cases. totally worth it

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah i think im gonna pull the trigger now that its my 4th season

[naive depot]

not to mention stash upgrades will be over 25 mil

i did 1.5 wipes with a standard container

[rustic plank]

1st wipe 2 weeks playing 100 raids already

[naive depot]

yeah don't upgrade until your second wipe

[rustic plank]

bnot including scav'w

[naive depot]

you won't be able to appreciate the upgrades otherwise

[light cipher]

if you managed from level 1 to 10 with standard, you'll appreciate EoD

[naive depot]

this game is unplayable at the moment anyways so don't give BSG more money

[cosmic tinsel]

unplayable!?

ive been playin all day

[naive depot]

@light cipher until they have to pay money to upgrade their stash or get vendors leveled up to 4 and notice how huge of a difference the rep makes

gamma is the only thing they'll notice besides their stash being huge

they wont realize how much it actually costs to get stash level 4 normally

[light cipher]

Fair enough. To each their own

[rustic plank]

but why wait for another sale?

[naive depot]

it's a double edged sword

[rustic plank]

who knows when that will e

[naive depot]

they'll probably do some summer twitch campaign

and have a one day sale

other than that possibly black friday/christmas sales

[rustic plank]

i need the stash space badly

and alpha container fucking sucks

[light cipher]

I've eyed the game for a while, didn't notice many sales

[naive depot]

before i upgraded my alpha always had a docs case and two stacks of ammo

[sharp terrace]

second time i headshot gluhar with t45m

[naive depot]

lost quite a bit of meds from dying without a bigger container heh

[sharp terrace]

except

this time I DIED

AND IM GETTING TIRED OF DYING

WHY CANT I IMPROVE

I DIE TO RAIDERS

[light cipher]

Same

[sharp terrace]

R A I D E R S

[naive depot]

@sharp terrace one time we wiped 8 players and 5 player scavs and couldn't start looting til 8 minutes left and my boy and i both lost slicks, meta HKs, exfils and raid backpacks to player scavs

it happens

[sharp terrace]

why does it happen all the time to me tho

[naive depot]

are you repeeking raiders from the same angle twice

[sharp terrace]

no

i switched a lot

[naive depot]

100% positive on that one?

do you have a clip i could watch

[dire matrix]

dont take long range fights against them

[sharp terrace]

yes i was running all over the train station

[naive depot]

hmmm

[dire matrix]

they have insane accuracy at range

[sharp terrace]

i took a raider's akm

and started killing

but then fucking raider literally ran

and i got him in the head but heard a nade so i ran back

turns out the raider was ALIVE

and he shot me dead

[dire matrix]

did he have a helmet?

[sharp terrace]

i had hexgrid in backpack with 3.6 durability

[sharp terrace]

a sfera I think

[somber barn]

raiders just got nasty aim, they will rng your skull 90% of the time if you dont 1 tap them

[dire matrix]

what ammo was in the ak?

[drifting jolt]

i fight raiders from long distances, or abuse bush geometry and shoot them from a bush without them seeing me

[sharp terrace]

idk

[drifting jolt]

should always check your ammo

[somber barn]

can you even LoS raiders/ais at all?

[sharp terrace]

i was in a tight spot

[dire matrix]

well if it was ps or t45m the helmet can eat a bullet ot two

if it was bp, you got an unlucky ricochet

[sharp terrace]

i killed gluhar with an svds

[somber barn]

i mean i snipe from a long distance, and ya first shot they are confused but they always aim towards me and if u stay there for a second longer they start shooting it, or atleast make their way to you

[dire matrix]

or the game decided not to register your bullet. happens frequently

[sharp terrace]

i did not even touch a raider with the akm

no bullets whatsoever

just 2 kills with an mp5

one was a scav the other one was a peaceful raider

then heard gluhar coming out of some metal shit floor

and shot him

then some of his guards came

i really needed that labs keycard

fucking shit

[misty bobcat]

yo im hellla new where can i get some help

[sharp terrace]

im poor i bought an items case

i have 300k

[misty bobcat]

im lvl 7

[naive depot]

please explain specifically what you need help with instead of just saying "i need help"

[dire matrix]

if you need the labs cards for fishing place, huntsman path: woods keeper gives 3 labs cards

[sharp terrace]

and people are literally saying "oh yeah ill play with you" and then disappearing into nothing like fucking ghosts

[naive depot]

cuz there are dozens of players that say that every day without saying what they're struggling with

[misty bobcat]

oh ok

[native tartan]

anyone wanna help me get some money just spent it all on stash upgrades

[naive depot]

then they just disappear

[sharp terrace]

no i need it cause i gotta sell it

[misty bobcat]

i kinda wanna do some tasks

bp depot

[sharp terrace]

just like my mexican father in a parallel universe

[naive depot]

ah cool so you're still on the intro tasks 😛

[misty bobcat]

yupp

[naive depot]

let me just give you a pro tip and save you a ton of time

[dire matrix]

you can find guids to tasks on the wiki

every task has maps for placing items and stuff

[naive depot]

if you advertise in #pvp-lfg saying you're new and need task help, you will very very very rarely get any responses

#beginners-chat will tell you to fuck off to #pvp-lfg

[misty bobcat]

ok i wont do that

[naive depot]

which creates a cycle of "where do i go"

[misty bobcat]

where do i ask then?

[naive depot]

sometimes people in this channel here will help you out with tasks

[misty bobcat]

ok

[sharp terrace]

just ask for help in depressed messages like mine @misty bobcat

[naive depot]

honestly you join a customs 5 man and feel out the group see if they're doing tasks and shit, see what kind of gear they're bringing

sherpa hub i've never used but i'd imagine it has insane wait times to get some help from a sherpa

[sharp terrace]

like "ohhh its the 1408401728th time i die to raiders" "why do I suck"

[misty bobcat]

well im 13 so i dont think anyone wants to play with me lol

[sharp terrace]

and then someone goes like: "yeah man i'll help you"

DAMMIT ILL PLAY WITH YOU CALL ME RN

WE GOTTA PLAY

[naive depot]

if you can hop into a beginners assistance channel when they're not full it can be helpful but really you just gotta look for someone in here specifically

[misty bobcat]

me?

[sharp terrace]

Y e s

[naive depot]

that's not to say people in #pvp-lfg will NEVER help you it's just rare

[sharp terrace]

the only one who won't dump me

[misty bobcat]

ok

[naive depot]

i'd help you myself but i'm not playing tarkov at the moment but i could get you some guidance on gear to bring and whatnot

interchange is my main map so i can't be a ton of help on customs

[naive depot]

half the people i group with are like 14 years old you'll be fine

[misty bobcat]

ok

beagle wanna help us in a raid

[naive depot]

honestly bro i moved back to my parents house and i dont have a mousepad but i might entertain the thought of an IC raid or two once i get my paintball gun put back together

[bold kernel]

[naive depot]

if it doesn't fuck up again 😂

[native tartan]

is key to goshan register any good?

[naive depot]

it can be

it's a LOT of registers to loot and you're gonna be completely exposed making a lot of noise

[native tartan]

oh danger

[bold kernel]

200k in raid but it is too much time and too much noise + scavs spawns around you

[naive depot]

absolute best case you get like 100k

most of the time you'll only get like 30-50k

not worth

you can pick up two bolts and beat that money

[fading violet]

registers are not worth looting

[naive depot]

10k per slot is what you want minimum

10 "worthless" 10k items=100k

[native tartan]

alright i just have it and KIBA entrance key so i was thinking about learning interchange

[naive depot]

so a backpack of "worthless" items=300k

[native tartan]

alright

[fading violet]

you spend like 15 minutes looting those registers out in the open, you are basically asking to get tapped at that point

[naive depot]

well you have the extremely expensive kiba key so grate door will be cheap

but learning how to hit kiba is a bit of an art form if you want to do it consistently

[barren berry]

[naive depot]

you need to have timing with it and awareness+clearing out your angles

not to mention getting rid of killa if he's up

[barren berry]

^you can get this loot by looting worthless places

[naive depot]

also the whole going to hit power thing without turning off the alarm and oops people already hit kiba when you got back

it's well worth it though

once you get it it's nowhere near as bad as it sounds

[native tartan]

alright sounds good

[naive depot]

going to hit power and loot kiba for me is nothing now

[maiden horizon]

i just got that and ultra

[naive depot]

it used to terrify me completely

[barren berry]

^actually kiba is not being hit very often

[naive depot]

oh is it not?

panman is not panman

he is kibaman

he lives in that shit

[native tartan]

ya i got ultra medical key not realizing how good it is and sold it for only 4 million

[naive depot]

also kiba fights can be so much fun

i live for them

[maiden horizon]

when? i bought it for 4 mill like an hour ago lol

[naive depot]

whether i'm inside fighting people outside or vice versa that shit gets my heart racing

[native tartan]

like a month ago

[barren berry]

@naive depot kiba fights are fun, yes

[native tartan]

there where none for sale

[naive depot]

😂

also panman

GRIZZLY GANG

[barren berry]

kiba is fun™️

V E R Y F U N N Y

[naive depot]

the best is when someone opens the door and sprays

then you run out and kill them while you're reloading

😂

[native tartan]

whats a good budget interchange gun

[naive depot]

er

[barren berry]

rpk

[naive depot]

they're reloading

[naive depot]

hunter, okp7 sight, m61

[barren berry]

or ak-103

[naive depot]

or do you want something fun to use

[maiden horizon]

i use my 5-7

[naive depot]

if so RPK cheap to mod and VERY effective

[native tartan]

alright

[barren berry]

not anymore

[naive depot]

what

did they up the price on it

or nerf it

[barren berry]

1600 RUB per 7Н39 игольник or 1500 for BS

[bold kernel]

hell yea helped a beginner finish search mission and extract
Felt nice

[fading violet]

I don't like using the RPK since it levels your machine gun skill and it only works on the RPK

[naive depot]

@barren berry igolnik fucking sucks

[barren berry]

you succ

[native tartan]

this is how i lost the only rpk i have took into raid

[naive depot]

when i last played two weeks ago BT was still shredding players

[barren berry]

fuck the BT, im using only igolnicks

[naive depot]

@native tartan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dOATYgKxbs

[barren berry]

useless items™️

(ignore tetriz and ledx)

[native tartan]

i like the double sights

[barren berry]

i just couldnt find place for it

ignore it too

[naive depot]

you ever be like oh fuck i lost a screw but it's still stuck to the end of the hex key

[fading violet]

does flexing loot in #beginners-assistance make your pp go stiff or something, I don't understand people just flexing loot here

[naive depot]

well if you'd read the rest of the conversation you'd know why he linked the picture

we were talking about how "useless items" will make you a lot of money

[barren berry]

does trying to be a good person and trying to stop loot flexing™️ makes feel you like a good person or you pp go hard?

[naive depot]

fr

guy's wanting to learn interchange, we're telling him about money making on interchange

if you would like to stop the "loot flexing" then provide some valuable information to him on learning interchange

[fading violet]

and how is that helping him loot interchange, there are a lot of items in the screenshot that are not worth picking up

[naive depot]

lol

[barren berry]

@native tartan

[naive depot]

bro he's brand new to this game he's not gonna be hitting techlight and shit

[barren berry]

use this as your loot area

[naive depot]

and there's a good amount of money in there

[native tartan]

thanks

[naive depot]

if you think all those items in that screenshot are not worth picking up you're a bit delusional

[barren berry]

how you helping this guy by arguing in this chat?

[fading violet]

I didn't say all of it lol

[naive depot]

even then he needs to fill up slots in his backpack and rig, what's he going to be picking up otherwise if he doesn't have all the keys and can't defend himself at the hotspots?

[maiden horizon]

[naive depot]

he's gonna be looting exactly what's in those bags

[dire matrix]

i think id trust a person with the name interchange mainer to know about interchange

[naive depot]

i have over 4,000 raids on interchange

i know this fucking map

[native tartan]

well that picture made me realize that bolts go for like 25k when i thought they were only worth like 8k

[naive depot]

and i know exactly what a new player goes through in this game and ESPECIALLY on interchange

considering i learned this game playing interchange solo for 2-3 months

[fading violet]

I think you took this way too personally lol

[naive depot]

nah i'm just tired of goody two shoes like you butting in saying "stop loot flexing" when we're clearly helping a noob out

when you have provided exactly ZERO information to help this guy out

so please tlel me

if all the shit in panman's bag aren't worth picking up

what loot will he be picking up instead?

he's a noob he has to make money somehow

and picking up what you see is a great way to do that

[tropic skiff]

I'm sure this question gets asked a lot but is there a quick reference for non-gear items that you should keep that aren't for quests (just because those lists are pretty widely available).

[maiden horizon]

[tropic skiff]

I feel like i have no idea what's worth anything.

[naive depot]

go into raid, fill bags, get the fuck out quick, you have your money, do it again

rather than dying trying to get a few pieces of "better loot" and being broke again

🦀eye sensor malfunction fixed 🦀

[barren berry]

@fading violet

sorry, i took it personally

[fading violet]

lmao you two are still going on about this

[sour heron]

so anyway.....

[barren berry]

yes

[sour heron]

Can't do my night raid now.. cause the times are 6pm/6am... scav run..... 🐇 🐇

[barren berry]

@native tartan i'd recommend ya to run couple of offline raids on IC

learn shops name and what's inside

[native tartan]

ya im scavving right now

[fading violet]

sorry I offended your easily broken ego, you may continue to loot flex

[barren berry]

also always remember material

[native tartan]

what do you mean

[barren berry]

for example: in ULTRA med on second floor there is a wooden door before room itself

so if you hear wood in location of pharmacy

you know exactly where is guy

or you hearing a metal nearby

means guy coming up by escalator

[native tartan]

alright

[silver hornet]

@barren berry why aren't you "Syria mainer" instead

[barren berry]

finally i can continue my loot flex, thx 2000 YEARS OF CONSTANT HUMAN EVOLUTION TO CREATE A USELESS GUY, WHO CANT EVEN READ FKING CONVERSATION BEFORE ARUING, MY GOD WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU

[native tartan]

just died on my scav got sniped by buckshot

[barren berry]

oof

[barren berry]

same question

[silver hornet]

bruh

[barren berry]

kekw

you know, syria is same for US

[silver hornet]

I asked first

[barren berry]

[fading violet]

it's 2 million years actually, learn your history

[naive depot]

don't start shit if you cant back yourself up

you have provided exactly 0 pieces of useful information to help cracker out

[fading violet]

lol I get it, can you drop this already, I get it you want to defend your boyfriend

[naive depot]

no

i'm calling you out directly for a reason

[sour heron]

ruff

[bold kernel]

how r u so mad

[barren berry]

nah, you gonna be my boyfriend so hand over your ass

[sour heron]

stinky

[naive depot]

😂

[native tartan]

uh oh stinky monkey

[naive depot]

i am very passionate about this game and helping new players get their bearings so they can establish a gameplay loop and extract while making money consistently

rather than dying endlessly and not knowing wtf is happening

[bold kernel]

.

[naive depot]

.

i am beaglebark thank you for coming to my ted talk

[sour heron]

mmmm not sure.. you kinda took over the new player help channel lol

[bold kernel]

how does play game

[naive depot]

shoot, loot, scoot

[native tartan]

most of the time this channel is just people ignoring the new players atleast what i have seen

[barren berry]

people lazy to help + all beginners-chats are usually offtop

[native tartan]

pretty sure someone in my game has a grenade launcher

[sour heron]

arghhhhh I went night vision at 7pm ... it is pure daylight

[cosmic tinsel]

rare but possible

[cosmic tinsel]

been there it feels TERRIBLE

[shut cairn]

should i just sell fcond

i have no use for it yet

and im below level 10

[cosmic tinsel]

you'll need some for a quest

FiR

so if its not found in raid you can sell it, otherwise probably worth hanging on to it as it is uncommon

[shut cairn]

alright

[native tartan]

ya they just walked into a bush with me i threw a grenade at our feet and started blasting

[warped jacinth]

Ok so who should I go to for some assistance

[barren berry]

!sherpa

fuck

[cosmic tinsel]

i answer as many questions as i can here

[dire matrix]

ask some questions, theres usually people in here that are willing to answer

[cosmic tinsel]

i dont do sherpaing

so depends what ya need

[barren berry]

[sour heron]

help here is awesome.

👏

[delicate siren]

how long does it take for level 50 endurance?

[cosmic tinsel]

i got about one endurance level per player level

just thru regular play

[dire matrix]

sprint 2 full bars of stamina per raid

itll take a bit

[delicate siren]

I do kek

how many raids though

aprox

[barren berry]

more than 2 weeks

[dire matrix]

idk ~500

[delicate siren]

well obviously

[dire matrix]

i honestly have no idea

[delicate siren]

that number i keep getting so i think it might be aprox right depending on the person yk?

[dire matrix]

you can get an air filter for faster gains

[cosmic tinsel]

my whole squad is about their player level

[barren berry]

you can do it in 2 weeks if you will constantly run atleast 3 raids with weight over 45

[cosmic tinsel]

just let it happen imo

[barren berry]

in a day

[delicate siren]

i do like 20 raids per day

[dire matrix]

wait, endurance levels under weight does it not?

[cosmic tinsel]

overweight is for strength, not endurance

[delicate siren]

I get overweight in 5 out of those 20

[barren berry]

ah wait

[delicate siren]

XD

[barren berry]

fuck me, im legally blind

[delicate siren]

Na mate it was just a mistake :3

[dire matrix]

too much interchange. rats melted your brain

[barren berry]

endurance takes same time if you constantly run short raids

basically, you can get only 10 points per raid

after 10 points there is gonna be 250% debuff on endurance

so if you wanna speed it up

do short raids and always hit 10 points

(check in game)

[barren berry]

2 am in my place

[dire matrix]

ah. its like 6 pm for me

[barren berry]

and gotta stay up till next evening

so i can reset my sleep schedule

to sleep schedule of normal human, not a fking cat

[dire matrix]

i need to do that too. quarantine makes it difficult to get out of bed at a reasonable time

[sour heron]

ya.. finished work and around 6pm. wondering if this raid might go dark.. still about 40 mins.

[barren berry]

oof, shoreline

[sour heron]

catch some boys running to extractions at dark lol...

[barren berry]

what time was in lobby

[sour heron]

7pm

[barren berry]

nope

it is not gonna go dark

[sour heron]

aight

[silver hornet]

It might be by the end of it.

[cosmic tinsel]

agree

[sour heron]

looking possible

[cosmic tinsel]

pretty picture

[sour heron]

except.. I don't have 30 mins 🤣

[cosmic tinsel]

hahahaha

[sour heron]

😄

[cosmic tinsel]

all the food is in resort too D:

[placid marsh]

I have no fucking clue what I’m doing

[cosmic tinsel]

you could try hittin stashes from that location, always a chance of food

[cosmic tinsel]

thats what we're here for, whatchu confused about

[placid marsh]

This that everything lol

[cosmic tinsel]

well when you have issues let us know

we got opinions ha

[placid marsh]

I’ve literally got the game a couple days ago and played once died and kinda haven’t opened it again

[cosmic tinsel]

ha

time to die some more, then

[dire matrix]

the learning curve is akin to mount Everest

[cosmic tinsel]

start with scav raids

use a map on another screen

[placid marsh]

What are those lol

[naive depot]

you will die a very large amount at first

[naive depot]

a scav raid spawns you in as a random scavenger with a random set of gear in a raid that's already in progress

[cosmic tinsel]

the one on the left

honestly maybe find a starting tarkov video

[naive depot]

so you can hop in with no risk to your own gear or money, only potential for pure profit

[placid marsh]

I don’t learn by watching stuff that’s the problem I learn by doing but I have no fucking idea what I should be doing

[cosmic tinsel]

just keep banging yourself against the game then

scavs are no risk

[placid marsh]

Fuck it

Might as well

[cosmic tinsel]

pistol runs are basically no risk

yeah

thats what i did

eventually something will go right and it will feel incredible

[dire matrix]

scav off cooldown and you can also hop into an offline on your pmc and walk around with a map open

try to learn customs because most early game quests are there

[cosmic tinsel]

customs is good for quests

factory is fast pvp in a tiny map

good for learning some pvp basics imo

[dire matrix]

id avoid factory like the plague

its a meat grinder for newer undergeared players

[cosmic tinsel]

ehhh low gear, only 5 players, tiny easily learned map

[sour heron]

Well, what I do, is study one map. Start by learning it's extractions. Run it in offline mode if it helps, to just learn the map. You can even turn scavs off. Then I will usually play my Scav runs on a map I am learning. and save my PMC runs for my main map.

[dire matrix]

more people that dont know the map for me to get quest kills on

[cosmic tinsel]

hahahaha

maybe

my buddy just started and he immediately fell in love with factory because it was easy to learn

[dire matrix]

i honestly wouldnt go to factory expecting to survive the first few

it is easy to lean ill give it that

[cosmic tinsel]

he got comfortable shooting

and then realized he needed money and quested

[dire matrix]

but theres some pvp gamers on there, sprint peeking and nading every angle

[cosmic tinsel]

fsure. ups and downs to everything

[placid marsh]

Is there a map for the different area or do I just wander around?

Till I die

[sour heron]

no. grab one of these.

http://www.eftmkg.com/shoreline-full.html#4/-2356.00/13320.00

you have to use your browser to learn the maps.

not like most games where you can press M for map

[placid marsh]

Wtf does any of that mean

[sour heron]

Welcome to Tarkov

[rustic plank]

theres no in game map

you gotta look it up

or just know

[placid marsh]

That’s dumb as the fuck the maps have no legends or anything

[sour heron]

yes they do.

https://tarkov-tools.com/map/shoreline

[placid marsh]

The one I’m looking at doesn’t

[sour heron]

there are many maps for many different player styles

[fading violet]

that map is kinda bad for beginners, I think this one is better

[cosmic tinsel]

thats my go to shoreline map

the best by a billion

[bold kernel]

IS Ultra med worth it ?

[steel quiver]

no

[sour heron]

the only trouble with that shoreline map is it does not have the 37 hidden caches. but yes good for overall layout.

[wispy iron]

Anyone able to help complete the woods quest finding the hidden message and jäger camp ?

[misty bobcat]

anyone wanna play im level 8

[granite kiln]

What’s the best map for bolts and nuts

[bold kernel]

test

[surreal ice]

Is there a good way to level up memory? I want to get the library so I can level faster

[tired spruce]

So what's the difference between the two SKSs? One can take a scope, okay.

[rotund vale]

how do you auto sort stash

[misty bobcat]

the blue button at the bottom of the stash

its two blue arrows

[slow bone]

bruh lost half a mill as a scav

figured id try reserve for the first time

yeeted some pmc with one those half a mill filters

couldnt fucking find the cp extract and got killed trying to find it

looked at a video showing where it is

fucking map was wrong

fml

[sour heron]

arghhh... Tarkov 🤣

[bold kernel]

You didnt lose it, you never have it until you extract

[slow bone]

eh, had the map been right i would have sat in the fucking corner instead of behind the tank at cp exit

[bold kernel]

Sure but you shouldnt look at loot you pickup as loot you "have"

Everything you pickup you have the chance to keep, its never a guarantee

[slow bone]

no i agree fully on that

but i would have 100% extracted had the map maker been more dilligent on placing the fucking extract mark

[bold kernel]

What map did you use?

[slow bone]

was chilling next to the tank instead of the far corner that you apparently had to be in

[bold kernel]

What didnt you find?

[slow bone]

CP fence

[bold kernel]

Oh

yeah

[foggy egret]

That’s why scav runs on reserve aren’t very pog

[slow bone]

i wouldnt know

was my first time reserve and i wasnt bringing my pmc to that

[bold kernel]

anyone willing to help out 2 newbies

[inland stag]

dude scav runs on reserve is the only way i make money

everything else is a loss

[lusty glacier]

what are some good ways to not die by getting caught off guard? happened when i was running down a field with a m8 and we start getting shot by people we can't all locate, and inevitably die

[inland stag]

you either pick up scraps from gluhar or randomly find an aesa next to a tank

xortex i feel that on a personal level

[copper cairn]

With?

[lusty glacier]

shoreline in particular

[barren berry]

JAEGER FUEL NOW RESETED

[inland stag]

is shoreline worth learning?

[lusty glacier]

THANK YOUUU

[inland stag]

ive learned reserves, customs and factory

[lusty glacier]

i think all maps worth learning

[barren berry]

not so much

[inland stag]

yeah but like should i prioritize shoreline

thats kinda what i meant

[barren berry]

it is better to learn reserve and interchange for money

[inland stag]

interchange would be nice for then g p u s

i just dont like the lighting of interchange

thats why i love reserves

[barren berry]

as you can guess from my name, i choosen interchange

[lusty glacier]

i dont like the chads of interchange

[inland stag]

except for pmc extracts

same

that as well

interchange has an ok extract

[copper cairn]

Reserve is my goto

[lusty glacier]

like im running to go reposition and these chads just snipe me with nades

like wot

[inland stag]

customs is my chill map

factory is just straight up fun with flechette and mp153

[supple pasture]

now that ive got the hang of reserve, this map is mad easy

[barren berry]

you can buy 11SR for 3 mil to get a perfect exit

[slow bone]

is it a perfect exit tho?

[supple pasture]

+mad loot

[inland stag]

interchange go brr

[slow bone]

i feel like alot can happen between getting to BK and the actual extract

[barren berry]

yes

[slow bone]

especially since youll be traveling the map's hotspot basically

[barren berry]

located under centre

easy to escape

[inland stag]

not very easy on the wallet

interchange might be the next map i learn

ive only played like 3 raids on it

[dire matrix]

the loot is pretty fire tho, prokill, moonshine, bitcoins weapon parts

[inland stag]

but it was so daunting as a beginner

so i havent done it in a while

[supple pasture]

interchange is mad easy tbh

its just the inside of the store (excluding the 3 big stores) is confusing at first

[inland stag]

when the interchange chad doesnt acknowledge factory

yeah

[supple pasture]

fuck factory

[inland stag]

that bit underneath

like the shipping area

[slow bone]

what are some good budget helmets that arent the penis helmet?

[supple pasture]

im still on postman pat and im lvl 35

[barren berry]

interchange is easy to understand but hard to master

[supple pasture]

none, shattered mask

[barren berry]

git gud lul

[slow bone]

im steadily getting more to spend per raid so im building up my armory

[inland stag]

real chads use beanies

man i got like 57 guns like the rat i am

[dire matrix]

false. doorkicker is the best headgear

[spice gate]

Can anyone bring me through some raids and help me make some money? I am poor

[inland stag]

we can argue on that

austin straight up just run reserves as a scav

after like 5 raids as a scav i had the gist of the map down

[dire matrix]

who wouldnt want to look like captain price. too bad i cant get bigass sideburns

[lusty glacier]

whats the right way to play when you are stuck in a room e.g. dorms or resort and you hear a player running down the hallway and/or you cant repeak the doorway? repeak anyway and take control of the angle? let them come to you and peak them when they are close to the door? or what

[inland stag]

have 8 grenades

[supple pasture]

based

[inland stag]

nah jk

i would just die then

[lusty glacier]

that would give me an advantage if i wasnt inside of a room xD

[dire matrix]

rookie numbers. i bring a mppv full of vog 25s to every raid

[supple pasture]

depends on how close they are tbh, if theyre in like range where you can bounce a grenade off a wall and have it get close to them you can use it to zone them off while you reposition

or be chad and use peakers advantage

[dire matrix]

you can also do the turbo chad play and push your own grenade

nobody expects that

[supple pasture]

walk into ur grenade

[agile vigil]

any idea where you can farm the thermals ?

[dire matrix]

throw, peak, kill, back up

ezpz

[supple pasture]

make them believe youre hurt and then kill their ass

[lusty glacier]

i guess repositioning with a nade wouldnt be bad, but when they have control of the hallway wouldnt it just put me in the same position as before?

[supple pasture]

repeak and hope for best

[dire matrix]

if you arent on 3rd floor you can hop out a window

unless this is about dorms

[supple pasture]

depends on map

reserve you can 100% do that

[dire matrix]

resort you can hop out windows and get under them

[supple pasture]

dorms is kinda fucky tho

[dire matrix]

audio is fucky enough theres a good chance they dont hear you

[lusty glacier]

might aswell peak without the nade and have the element of surprise

if i dont peak for a while, they will question if i peak again or make different move probablyu

[dire matrix]

unless its a right side peek, theyre gonna see your arm before you see them

[supple pasture]

youre gonna have the element of surprise when you get head eyes after you repeak

[dire matrix]

left side peeking is really dangerous

you can also prefire

if you have big mags

[inland stag]

just jump out the window and painkiller

[supple pasture]

actually wait even better

blind fire

assuming ur on left side

[inland stag]

so true king

[obtuse grove]

how do u do part 14 of gunsmith quest?

[dire matrix]

blind fire only works one way doe

[inland stag]

||me and the homies on part 3||

[lusty glacier]

so i was in resort the other day and i started a fight against some ppl at the other side of the hallway

i was scared to repeak them cos i dont have scoped sight or anything, and they probably knew where i was, but i never saw them

[inland stag]

mustve been a rat infestation

[chilly bane]

is there a in game voice chat?

[willow swallow]

ayo how do you get a green keycard

[inland stag]

no

[willow swallow]

not in this hoe

[chilly bane]

so why is there headsets in game that say they are capable of transmitting radio frequency or some sht

[inland stag]

tbh it would kinda ruin the immersion if a 12 year old started screaming at you that he found a graphics card

just saying

[copper cairn]

^

[left sundial]

VOIP would be really cool

[inland stag]

found in raid not existing would be really cool

[copper cairn]

Yall clearly aint ever played rust lol Voice chat is the last thing this game needs.

[left sundial]

would kinda make voice lines useless tho

FIR is the worst decision they made

[willow swallow]

they already are

[inland stag]

i agree

[left sundial]

I get that its supposed to be hardcore right

[inland stag]

i mean

[left sundial]

but its still a game

[inland stag]

sometimes you can scream to team up

but who does that

[left sundial]

if I blow a mf head up I want to have it FIR to flea

[inland stag]

and i love beaming dudes who do

[willow swallow]

someone please tell me how to get a green card

[inland stag]

you uh

[willow swallow]

its not in the market

[left sundial]

luck

[copper cairn]

Trade/Find

[supple pasture]

lmfao usec efigee

[inland stag]

shoot someone

[dire matrix]

barter for it

[copper cairn]

I found mine in reserve marked

[lusty glacier]

man the toxicity of rust is half of what makes it fun

u cant take it seriously

[willow swallow]

its literally not here

[left sundial]

its not my fault interchange is too good

[inland stag]

you gotta barter for it

[dire matrix]

nobody sells it for cash because the fee for listing it over 3 mil is insane

[copper cairn]

^ you aint wrong xortex but in this game it wouldnt be fun.

[dire matrix]

there could also be none on the market

[copper cairn]

Would def ruin it

[dire matrix]

it happens

[lusty glacier]

just have an option to turn it off

[supple pasture]

killa has it kill him you cant get it unless someone puts one up

[lusty glacier]

idk why u think it would ruin it

[left sundial]

okay okay so voip BUT its for squad only

[inland stag]

killa be eating green keycards

[copper cairn]

Ive got 5k hours on rust the game is def more toxic then playin lol

[inland stag]

amirite

[copper cairn]

thats my point bein

[inland stag]

why not just use discord

[copper cairn]

^

[supple pasture]

based

[copper cairn]

exactly

[inland stag]

everyone uses a browser for a map

[left sundial]

because imagine using discord

[inland stag]

might as well use discord for speaking

[left sundial]

its clunky

[supple pasture]

also based

fuck dsiscord

[lusty glacier]

imagine not using TS

[left sundial]

imagine not using skype

[supple pasture]

imagine not using facetime

[left sundial]

imagine not using IG live

[supple pasture]

imagine not using smoke signals from ur neighbor

[left sundial]

imagine not using reflective morse code

okay im gonna be real if you're not playing tarkov in BA you should be kicked

[supple pasture]

ba?

[left sundial]

beginners assistance

[supple pasture]

true

[inland stag]

bruh wait

[left sundial]

yes im going to mute in the VC and stay in there for 4 hours at my stash because im too scared to lose my gear

[inland stag]

i got homework to do

[left sundial]

like play or fuck off

[inland stag]

oh thats what you meant

bruh isnt there only like 25 slots for a partnered server

kinda not cool

is the holodinick worth

[copper cairn]

eh

if you got alot of food

[inland stag]

ive just been buying l u c k y s c a v c a s e

me and the homies love l u c k y s c a v c a s e

and 4 pistol cases cuz im a rat who wont sell things

except for aesas

oh yeah was wondering whats the best way to get the reserves marked rooms loot

full send or wait for someone to leave

and try to beam em

[copper cairn]

I mean waiting aint the way lol

itll be gone by then

If wanting the loot id rush it and rush out that bitch

thats how i got my green

[inland stag]

man i accidentally kept a keycard in my docs case

and went into customs

[copper cairn]

lmaooo dont feel bad

exact same thing happend to my green

practically a keeper at this point lol

[inland stag]

yeah i did it again

with a labs manager office key

[copper cairn]

Atleast thats only around 60k

thats a positive lol

[inland stag]

and im not planning on playing labs for 2 months

til i get level 5 gear

[hard panther]

[inland stag]

cuz im broke

[chilly bane]

how do i reset my game profile?

[carmine shale]

whats the best way to practice pvp

[unborn compass]

factory

trust

[errant estuary]

Why do ppl not use ads scope? That scope has rod dot and pog zoom, but cheap af atm?

[lusty glacier]

Lol I just played 2 shoreline raids in a row where I insta died, I checked the map to see which spawns could go after me, and I die to the very people who came from those spawns I just looked at

[rose harbor]

Hi whats a good helmet other than exfil?

[sour heron]

depends on what level you are at.. but for me practicing pvp means starting with Skavs.. so when I run my Rat maps. I practice engaging and winning scavs. From there I hope to eventually be a better pvp player

I am getting to where I am owning scavs.. but sometimes a scav is OP and kicks my butt

Often you will have a player come in on your scav fight so be ready for that!

[sonic patio]

with the early jaeger quest that you need to kill scavs on woods without wearing body armor, do helmets count?

[wooden ingot]

hey what is the best map for me to start off on got the game recently and having alot of trouble escaping as there is no map for me to follow

[unborn compass]

factory maybe its small , and look u0 maps online

[native hinge]

is there a radar on tarkov maps app available for use? Kind of like how pestily uses on his yt series after every match pinpointing his positions on the map?

[unborn compass]

i dont know if thats allowed tbh

i think he just does that post editing

[dawn geyser]

That's not a radar xD He just edits it on a map (Or whomever edits his videos)

[unborn compass]

yeah that would be cheating tbh

[native hinge]

so theres no known tool that allows u to track ur movement in tarkov and outputs on a map external to the game?

this game is torturing to play with 0 map knwledge

[dawn geyser]

Yes there is none

[unborn compass]

none thats just unfair \

[dawn geyser]

Well - there are none that you are allowed to use.

[unborn compass]

lol yeah

[native hinge]

any tips on memorizing the maps?

[unborn compass]

offline mode

[dawn geyser]

Just the regular ones - Landmarks, repetition

Yeah offline mode

[unborn compass]

scav and try and get out / explore

[dawn geyser]

If you want - you can post a screenshot when you're lost and post it here

Some people do that

[native hinge]

lmao that gave me chuckles

[unborn compass]

and when you get a compass , most still maps have nesw

[native hinge]

u'd be dead posting a sc waiting for a response and getting back into the game

[dawn geyser]

Yeah after you find Prapors convoy he'll give you a compass

Naw, the people that post here haven't died

Normally takes a couple seconds to respond

[unborn compass]

ive done it before in woods , ddint know where to go so i sent a ss

[dawn geyser]

Losers like me have this channel open on my other monitor

[unborn compass]

or join the help vc

[unborn compass]

same

[bold kernel]

is the beta container worth it from peacekeeper?

[dawn geyser]

It depends if you are planning on going for the Epsilon container

[carmine shale]

are flashlights worth running to kinda blind someone in cqc

[dawn geyser]

The Epsilon is obtained after The Punisher Part 6 - it's a 4x2

[dawn geyser]

Yes they're very effective

[bold kernel]

lmao im not even at punisher part 1

[dawn geyser]

Better hop to it then

[opal moth]

@carmine shale yes flashlights are annoying af when they are being used on you

[torpid wind]

if some1 can help, my mechanic part 14 task isnt working and google/wiki is not helping. If any1 has the bp for it or knows the build plz dm me

[dreamy anvil]
