[drifting jolt]

[urban halo]

@weak shadow

can u mute @inner herald

[inner herald]

[urban halo]

he is annoying and screaming on his mic

[inner herald]

(((((( im verginnnn

[small cairn]

A 5% loss on upgrading Prapor is fine, right?

[drifting jolt]

yes

[remote kettle]

what kinda stuff is in dorm room 214? got a key from a scav run

[drifting jolt]

Pretty sure it's for a quest item. Dorms isn't worth going to unless you have marked key or for a quest.

[remote kettle]

so its worth keeping in the long run?

[drifting jolt]

No. The opposite

I just said... Dorms doesn't have great loot... You either quest there or rush marked room. That's it.

[remote kettle]

therapist buys it for 25k u think i should sell

[drifting jolt]

Wiki it first

Don't remember that key specifically

[remote kettle]

wiki said it was for a quest if you didnt have room 203 key

[azure dagger]

Why is marked key 1 mil

It used to be like 40k top

[chilly granite]

Anyone does have good maps?

I only can find older

[unreal horizon]

I'd recommend mapgenie, you can toggle different filters to see where different things are

[celest sage]

using mp7 as gun for good gear runs, what should I use for budget ones

currently using mp-153 and all of my friends make fun of me and call me names

[polar roost]

use a pp-19

[bitter oak]

Does the hideout only upgrade when you’re playing the game? Does the timer stop if I close the game?

[polar roost]

it upgrades all the time no matter what

online or offline

[bitter oak]

nice, thanks

[shy oar]

How do I know where the exit points are if I barely know the map?

Do I just run around hoping to get lucky and find one?

[random widget]

You lay down in a bush and open the map from the wiki

then trial and error until you start recognizing where the hell you actually are

[shy oar]

if thats a common tactic why not just add an ingame map you can open..

like a physical item

[random widget]

well there is, but I don't think you can buy them yet

they are very basic though

[proven garnet]

i need help downloading the game

[shy oar]

When I started my first run, there was a timer at the top that had turned red when it hit 10 minutes, what happens after those minutes run out and I don't exit?

[random widget]

you go "awol" I believe, basically you dead and you lose all your stuff

[urban halo]

you die

not die exactly

you will lose your stuff

[bold kernel]

you will be mia

missing in action

[urban halo]

so always exit on time

[bold kernel]

and all ur insured stuff is lost too i think

[limber summit]

i have 350 hours and i am literally worse than new players

[random widget]

I really want to try a PP-19 cheap build, but then I look at the ammo cost if you don't want to shoot peas, yikes

I'm just not sure if I can swap over to trying to hit limbs instead of head/torso, though I have played dead space I guess 🤔

[elfin trail]

Hey all, can you get multiple of the documents from the customs office for Prapor's quest?

As a way of preparing to plant them in factory that. Or well, to prepare for failing that step a few times

[random widget]

I believe you only get one, then you gotta get a new one if you die before planting it

hey at least they've reduced the place timer to 10 seconds from what, 30 I heard?

[thin lion]

can some help do delivery from the past cuz i can t extract on customs

[bold kernel]

I need help with filling up a factory lobby 😔

for the same quest

[queen steeple]

Is the punisher part 4 still bugged? Do I need to use the scav vests

I've been told by someone a month ago that the scav vest is not needed for the quest since its bugged

[spare sierra]

Aight so I just stated playing and learning the game and I need assistance . so any veteran players down to teach a newbie how to play ?

[elfin hornet]

You need scav vest bro

[queen steeple]

dammit, thx

[civic sinew]

@queen steeple i did punisher part 4 last week no scav vest just balaclava and it worked not sure if they patched it yesterday but it worked very recently

[elfin hornet]

Just craft slickers in nutrition center

[queen steeple]

the thing is, its twice as cheap to buy an armored rig than a lvl 4 armor +vest

[cosmic tinsel]

thats why its a quest ha

paca + armored vest is cheaper than a class 4 armored rig

[queen steeple]

the 6b23T is 50 k for an armored rig

[cosmic tinsel]

thats the one im referring to, yeah

[queen steeple]

the cheapest way to have body armor and vest is just under 100k

[queen steeple]

wdym paca +armored vest

paca is body armor

shit one too

it conflicts with armored rigs

[cosmic tinsel]

you cant wear armored rigs for that quest

and you cant afford good body armor

i have identified for you a cheap, not very good body armor that will protect you from scav grade rounds

[queen steeple]

well it was bugged a week ago, and it didnt require a scav vest

[cosmic tinsel]

then try that 🤷

[queen steeple]

bruh yesterday a scav with m855a1 killed me xD

not even player scav

[cosmic tinsel]

ok, most scav caliber rounds

you'll always get a paca back from insurance

[queen steeple]

aight, any difference between a kirasa and paca

when it comes to scav calibers?

[queen steeple]

depends how it repairs

[cosmic tinsel]

it repairs ok

yeah, theres a difference

class 2 vs class 3, but kirasa costs more than the rat rig you love

[queen steeple]

hmm, I'll see. I think I will try to do another quest with that armored rig on, if I get a kill and it doesnt count, I will go in paca + scav vest

[queen steeple]

I meant if lvl 2 and 3 make a difference against scavs

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah i know

i said yes, theres a difference

its virtually impossible to quantify because you can still get head,eyesed

[queen steeple]

aight

thx

[lost igloo]

How to deal with quest Stirrup?

[civic sinew]

factory

m9a3

heashots

headshot*

[lost igloo]

Well, didn't help/

[bold kernel]

if anyone needs help lmk im bored

[idle finch]

how much would it cost to buy everything for the beta container and is it worth it? I have a standard version of the game

[sage lance]

bring in the ks-23m and flash people, then shoot them?

[cosmic tinsel]

the last tip is "go until its done"

it took me 3 raids this wipe. probably took me 11 last wipe

[muted compass]

is 545x39 bt still relevant this late in wipe?

[cosmic tinsel]

its a decent round at this point

i still use it if im feelin like doin a budget kit

at less than 1/5th the price of igolnik/bs

you're getting more than what you pay for

[muted compass]

ok thanks

i appreciate it

[bold kernel]

any tips for completing delivery from the past

[cosmic tinsel]

assume your issue is the factory component?

[muted compass]

i got friends and payed them 20k each to be a humain shield

it worked

[cosmic tinsel]

you can also just try and join a fiveman factory channel in this server

[bold kernel]

it would be but i've died in the customs office five times in a row

[cosmic tinsel]

delivery from the past is one of the most common quests people struggle w

ha, if you spawn on the customs office side, lay low for 10 min

then go

[muted compass]

go in office late raid

there are less people

and your quest item always spawns evern when someone takes it before

[bold kernel]

ok bet thx

ill try and find some people when i get to the factory portion

[cosmic tinsel]

i'll also join on anyones delivery from the past mission if im at my computer and not in raid

i offer no pmc killing promise

but i'll go out and vibe

[dire moat]

kind of sabotage or supply plans? wich one? GO! 😄

[bold kernel]

is this a bug? the sights are literally merged

[bold kernel]

kind of sabotage

Much more money and if you do Supply Plans you lose a ton of skier rep

[dire moat]

just noticed that part, and got more than enough with therapist, tyvm!

[bold kernel]

yep by that point I had so much the rapist rep it didn't matter but losing skier rep would've put me at LL1

[potent rain]

lol i just got the shooter born in heaven quest - don't think it'll ever be completed

[bold kernel]

very hard to do

[cosmic tinsel]

takes some time, planning, patience

[bold kernel]

can i insure a gun and throw it in a bush in case i get a beter gun during a run and get it back

or does it have to be on my body to get back from insurance

[cosmic tinsel]

you have discovered insurance fraud

yes you can do that

if you throw it in water nobody can get it

[bold kernel]

is there tax evasion in rust?

[sturdy pagoda]

Lf team custom EU still fairly new

[median edge]

How long do star rounds last

[cosmic tinsel]

depends how bad you get em

as long as like, 30 seconds

[keen sorrel]

If anyone needs help questing/making money let me know! Community games today and a giveaway as well!

[simple herald]

whats an items case?

[shut cairn]

is factory key worth buying

[cosmic tinsel]

extra storage

[cosmic tinsel]

100%

it opens the other factory exits so you can avoid gate3 campers

and it also opens a key shortcut near gas station at customs, as well as the fortress exfil at customs

and its 50 use for like, 60k?

1k rub/use is a steal

[bold kernel]

if anyone is new dm me cuz im bored and wanna help

[earnest rock]

yes

[shut cairn]

is it worth just buying the dollars to get peacekeeper level 2

[cosmic tinsel]

its cheaper to buy SSDs

and sell em to PK

[shut cairn]

alright

[cosmic tinsel]

you'll end up w more dollars per rouble spent

[random ridge]

yo

what marked rooms do you guys like to hit

or are they all the same

[pure marsh]

I'm finally trying to knock out the stirrup task and no body wants to fight me lmao.

Factory is empty in like 5 minutes

[rotund venture]

go to beginner chat I explained why tomboys are superior

[random ridge]

run factory with saiga and flechettes and play agressive af

do you know forklift spawns?

[cosmic tinsel]

sir this is a wendys

[rotund venture]

NO

[pure marsh]

That's where I always spawn. I gotta get pistol kills

[rotund venture]

Wendy's workers are femboys ;-; don't @ me

[random ridge]

if you spawn forklift you'll nearly always find someone at gate 0 i think its called

or you'll spawn in gate 0

if you get ready for him thats one kill

then just push office

[toxic trench]

someone knows where can i find the folder with intelligence? im kinda noob and i dont wanna risk it all just for that

[random ridge]

thats how I got it done

[rotund venture]

lotera

[random ridge]

I personally just kept refreshing the flea market until someone sold it to fence and I got it for like 80k

but I think it spawns in reserve

quite a lot

[rotund venture]

just look

[pure marsh]

I promise, I haven't seen anyone in like 8 raids besides scavs. They leave through gate 3 fast asf

[random ridge]

ah thats unlucky bro

I'd run a raid with you in factory to help you but not na

[toxic trench]

oh ok, i will search in reserve bc i didnt get the flea market yet

[merry flax]

I thought you could supress the SVDS, can you not?

[pure marsh]

Oh and I hit customs marked room all the time. I love dorms

[random ridge]

yup thats where I'm hitting now

[craggy sapphire]

Did i miss anythinf?

[pure marsh]

I've found a money case, gpu and a bit coin in one go

[craggy sapphire]

gpu?

[pure marsh]

Army bandage. Save your IFAK HP

[craggy sapphire]

kk

[pure marsh]

GPU is the graphics card btw

[craggy sapphire]

Ik

But you can't find em in marked

[unique granite]

Best place to reserve sniper kills?

[craggy sapphire]

I actually just soled a gpu

[craggy sapphire]

kk

[random ridge]

i accidentally spawned into a night riad without nvg or flashlight

im a buffon

[pure marsh]

On customs?

[random ridge]

yup

shits pitch black

[pure marsh]

Honestly it's not the worst night map, woods is by far the spookiest

[shut cairn]

did they take mp5sd off of level 2 peacekeeper?

i cant find it

[pure marsh]

Obviously you did the quest to unlock it right?

[shut cairn]

the mp5sd?

[random ridge]

look up piranah gunsmith level 3 guide

[shut cairn]

didnt know it was quest unlocked

[random ridge]

he shows how to make them

[shut cairn]

alright

[random ridge]

i find woods scary in day time

such a congested feeling

[craggy sapphire]

Any suppressors for ak74?

[cosmic tinsel]

TONS

[pure marsh]

The normal MP5 is there but the SD variant is locked behind a quest for the full build, but you can still buy the upper receiver and such

[cosmic tinsel]

linked search on the gun

mp5 can still suppress with a threaded lug

works for the gunsmith quest

[random ridge]

i love night raids just tried to run through and got exfil camped 😄

tbf would've been different if i had nvg

[cosmic tinsel]

lol

[pure marsh]

Interchange at night is so peaceful

[random ridge]

most of these guns are sitting collecting dust

which one should i bring to raid

need to try new guns

[pure marsh]

Jesus get an ICASE

[random ridge]

i only got 4 milly

so just gonna collect the dogtags lol like halfway there

[pure marsh]

Bring out the KS-23 and make that monies

[random ridge]

hahahaaha thats my rage factory run

if I die and get pissed off I run it in factory

[pure marsh]

I know people hype up shrap 10 but shrap 25 is way more accurate and well rounded

[unique granite]

you could run it on interchange

[random ridge]

iwel

I dont know interchange

[unique granite]

shrap 10 does much more damage up close

and can 1 shot to the legs

[random ridge]

my first like 60 hours on this game I just took the piss and only ran customs and factory

so I need to learn interchange and reserve still

[pure marsh]

So can shrap 25

[unique granite]

reserve isnt as important right now

but interchange is something youll want to get used to

[random ridge]

yup need to get those tetriz

[unique granite]

shrap 10 literally does more damage and pen

[random widget]

sell or keep for that cultist quest?

[obsidian minnow]

Best part about reserve is that its so easy to learn

[random ridge]

worth the keep tbh

[unique granite]

thats a keep

its not worth as much in to the wipe anymore

[random widget]

yeah I see it go for about 500k

[random ridge]

its definitley no harm

to have

[pure marsh]

For anyone sleeping on shrap 25

624 total damage if every pellet hits

Shrap 10 does a total of 696 but has a wider spread

[unique granite]

giving a chance for bad aim to actually hit

wtf is with rain everyday

[plush plover]

I keep getting clapped when I get a gas station spawn on customs.

[pure marsh]

If it's raining there, it rains for everyone

[unique granite]

I know but I just want to get my shooters done

its actually impossible to do it in reserve

[plush plover]

There is always some guy who peeks out of a hole in the wall with a geared sniper and one taps me.

[unique granite]

all these kids just hide in buildings lmfao

[pure marsh]

Big facts tbh. Need a thermal

[plush plover]

I can't even retaliate as I never hear them.

[cosmic tinsel]

reserve was honestly my easiest map

[unique granite]

yeah but I dont want to spend 700k on that then get 1 tapped by a m4 guy

[cosmic tinsel]

grab a mosin

3rd floor of white king

[unique granite]

nah youre crazy. I got all my customs shooters within 2 raids

[cosmic tinsel]

stare at dome

[unique granite]

customs is easiest by far

[normal frost]

can someone help with a task

[cosmic tinsel]

well now you're clearly on hallucinogens

😉

[plush plover]

Should I get scoped mosin for customs

[unique granite]

nah youre weird mate

[pure marsh]

You can try to hold in your spawn and let the rest of the PMCs rotate then you move

[plush plover]

Good idea.

Thanks.

[pure marsh]

That's what I do on interchange since idc about killa, kiba or the tech stores

[random widget]

lol I've been inside interchange like twice, going to have to start exploring in there slowly now

[unique granite]

3rd floor of white king? you know to have to survive getting there first...

[random ridge]

im just scaving it till I know exfils and my general way around

[unique granite]

@random widget btw try keeping a map always open beside you. thats the fastest way to learn. just by memorizing where youre going on the map and referring to it as much as possible

[craggy sapphire]

Is this everything i need?

[random ridge]

ye thats what I did for customs and woods but theres hardly a map for interchange is there?

[unique granite]

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

[random ridge]

nades if you're pushing somewhere like dorms

[unique granite]

@random ridge

[random ridge]

thank you boss

[unique granite]

np

[craggy sapphire]

Thanks i was actually going to do dorms

[unique granite]

good luck lmao

[pure marsh]

Think about IC as a giant U and explore each part in different raids. So like hit up oli and the parking garages then leave. Rinse and repeat

[unique granite]

I just memorize interchange by looking at where the nearest big store is fromme

[craggy sapphire]

I only bought f1's

[unique granite]

and sometimes use compass

[unique granite]

f1s are fine

[random widget]

I mean the extracts on interchange and the outside is fine, it's the inside..

"what story am I on? what store? ahhhhhhh"

[unique granite]

yeah use the map and compass

[pure marsh]

Offline is also pretty dope. I do an offline quest run so I know where I'm going then actually queue up

[unique granite]

^ true

[simple herald]

@random ridge https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/interchange

[unique granite]

thats the most obnoxious map ive ever seen

[pure marsh]

I have the app for those and you can filter for what you need

[unique granite]

you use your phone?

[pure marsh]

Yessir lmao so I can zoom in and follow myself if needed and I won't miss anything

[unique granite]

oh

I feel like having a second monitor for this game is literally the best thing in the world

[pure marsh]

I have a second monitor but I hate tabbing out for things

[unique granite]

huh. I have no issues with it

[pure marsh]

Also why is the OLI admin key like 300k? I just want to do quests

Good luck!

[random ridge]

i took a 2 week break this wipe

and literally when I got my second monitor i started playing again

its a must for someone like me who finds it hard to navigate lol

[unique granite]

yeah

its actually so nice

[bold kernel]

Not on the flea, how much do i put it up for?

[unique granite]

like 250k, 300k

[pure marsh]

Like general tips or ground up?

[unique granite]

someone will buy it 100% because its for gunsmith

[bold kernel]

someone just put one up for 55k

Being a chad urself

[random ridge]

are car batterys common enough

or should I just craft it for therapists task

[unique granite]

just wait for the 50k to sell

then put up for 300k

[pure marsh]

I crafted mine but I got lots of monies to waste

[bold kernel]

it sold and mine sold for 200K. 300K the fee was too high

[unique granite]

car batteries are very common in customs and interchange, at the factory buildings in customs and inside big stores in interchage

[merry flax]

How do you bind emotes to hotkeys?

[autumn mesa]

need a teacher for raids (lvl.5)

[dire rock]

double click y then right click the emote or voice line you want to bind

while in hideout or raid

[random widget]

dangit I didn't know about the cowboy hats

80% of my stash is basically " it's for some quest sometime"

[craggy sapphire]

Where are the other extracts?

[random widget]

they are removed if you spawn on that side basically

think of it as the extracts being split in half

depending on how close to them you spawn 🤔

with the ?? being the wild cards

[craggy sapphire]

Old gas is nnot working

So it has to be somewhere else

[cosmic tinsel]

3rd floor is not super contested, just avoid server rooms

[merry flax]

What's the red thing mean?

How do I level that

?

[craggy sapphire]

Need to do quests

[cosmic tinsel]

quest reputation

[merry flax]

He doesn't have any quests for me

quests for anyone?

or him

[unique granite]

I got up there, someone pushed button and ran straight to me. i missed and ie

died

[cosmic tinsel]

bad luck

[craggy sapphire]

Zb 013 doesn't work either

Where should i go

[cosmic tinsel]

did you turn on power

[merry flax]

How do I level quests for him if he has none for me?

[craggy sapphire]

It has already been used

[bold kernel]

why is this a thing if they can't fit in your stash

[cunning dragon]

zb 1011 is easy exfil

[craggy sapphire]

Cuz you are buying 40 of em

[cosmic tinsel]

its not a single use exfil

[bold kernel]

it's a pack

[cosmic tinsel]

i think its players advertising themeselves

[bold kernel]

42k roubles for 40 backpacks

[bold kernel]

prolly

[craggy sapphire]

Doesn't work

[random widget]

are you in zb 12?

[craggy sapphire]

Oh

[dawn geyser]

It's just to advertise their names

[craggy sapphire]

I am dumb

[random widget]

run further down the railway

[craggy sapphire]

Wha?

[bold kernel]

you're at zb 12
Zb 13 is in the fort thingy

replied to the wrong person 😦

[cosmic tinsel]

is that basement of fortress? looks kinda like zb-1012 to me

[random widget]

if you are in zb 12, zb11 is further west along the railway

[cosmic tinsel]

lol

[dawn geyser]

ZB-013 is gunners/expansion

[cosmic tinsel]

thats 12, its not on rn

[craggy sapphire]

xd

[dawn geyser]

If you see no light

That means it's not on

[cunning dragon]

yeah it's not far

[bold kernel]

yes it needs searchlight on

Zb 13 is inside the basement of the fortress

[random widget]

better leg it before you get tapped

[dawn geyser]

No light/No green smoke

[craggy sapphire]

Oh should i go there?

[random widget]

doesn't zb 13 need power and factory exit key ?

[cosmic tinsel]

i mean powers probably not on

zb 13 does need both of the things seth said

i'd go zb11

[random widget]

run

[cunning dragon]

just go to zb 11 it is much closer, hopefully you have a map up

[bold kernel]

is magnum buckshot good? and is it like leg meta or can I just aim for center mass

[cosmic tinsel]

leg/arm/face

[dawn geyser]

^

[cosmic tinsel]

but also just fuckin magdump

[random widget]

hit the squishy parts basically

[dawn geyser]

Magnum buckshot is op

[cosmic tinsel]

bc the pellets hit hard and itll cause panic

[bold kernel]

face then
My monke brain just cannot aim for the legs lol

[cosmic tinsel]

face only if no shield

[dawn geyser]

@cosmic tinsel Also I hate that your avatar has the same bopping motion mine does

[cosmic tinsel]

i hate that your avy is so damn sexy

😉

[cosmic tinsel]

if see altyn, learn to leg fast

[dawn geyser]

[cosmic tinsel]

baha

[craggy sapphire]

I died

[cosmic tinsel]

one last leg thought for hmmperhaps - honestly, the ks23 taught me how to aim leg

[cosmic tinsel]

that do happen more often than not

[craggy sapphire]

Ik

I am not that mad

But i clipped it

[bold kernel]

dude I can't afford that thing I'd rather grab a vector for 90k than it for 130k

[craggy sapphire]

Bc idk how i died

[random widget]

you can see what damage caused fatal damage on you on the end screen

I mean maybe the sniper scav was up

[cosmic tinsel]

do the barter

ya big goof

[bold kernel]

ok so this might sound weird but uh

[cosmic tinsel]

[bold kernel]

lmao I've been trying to do that for a week

[cosmic tinsel]

dang

[coral jolt]

no way you havent found a 5 man in a week

ive seen multiple just today

[bold kernel]

[coral jolt]

theres a 5 man factory posted like 10 minutes ago in lfg

just go join it

[storm onyx]

Hi, I've got a full stash of loot and need to sell some stuff but im not really sure who to sell to for best profit

[coral jolt]

weapon parts to mechanic, barter loot to therapist, melee weapons to jager, infromation items like flashdrives and diarys to peacekeeper

theres a rough overview

[bold kernel]

Therapist: Keys, meds and barter items
Ragman: Armor
Mechanic: Guns, Attachments, Ammo
Prapor: Nades
Peacekeeper: sell to him if you're low on dollors

[storm onyx]

how to do you sell to jager?

[coral jolt]

the same way as all the others

?

[bold kernel]

need to unlock him with mechanics quest Introduction at level 5 I think

[storm onyx]

oh ok

im like 3 and 1 on all the dealers

[bold kernel]

Fence: F'd up armor ragman won't buy

[coral jolt]

3 and 1?

you mean rep levels

[bold kernel]

never buy or sell anything to fence except f'd up armor

[storm onyx]

total level of 3

[coral jolt]

ohhh

[storm onyx]

but all my dealers are level 1

[coral jolt]

yeah go do the mechanic quest to find jager

on woods

[storm onyx]

cool will do when i level up a bit

ty

[bold kernel]

@storm onyx wait wait wait

[storm onyx]

yeha

[bold kernel]

don't sell the starting items to dealers lol

[storm onyx]

y?

[bold kernel]

if you're that low level and your stash is full you probably mean all the guns you get at the start

yeah

you need those lol

[storm onyx]

can we go on a call and i can show you?

[bold kernel]

not rn but you can take a screenshot

prt sc

[storm onyx]

win+shift+S

[storm onyx]

yeah i know but 90% oh my stuff it in rigs and bags to keep it compact

[bold kernel]

yeh I always use that but for tarkov might as well use print screen

[bold kernel]

good

[craggy sapphire]

Anything missing?

[bold kernel]

you won't be able to reload nicely

[craggy sapphire]

Why?

[storm onyx]

1

[bold kernel]

put the hemostat and bandage in the same 2x1 so there's space for the mag you're reloading

[coral jolt]

you will drop a mag cause you dont have an open slot in your rig for it

[craggy sapphire]

Oh yeah

[bold kernel]

when you reload there's temporarily another mag in your rig

[storm onyx]

2

3

[craggy sapphire]

How can i add a laser onto that ak?

[bold kernel]

yeah most of what you got there is your basic loot you get when you open up tarkov fot the first time

[storm onyx]

4

[bold kernel]

stop scavving and go take something out lol

[storm onyx]

5

thats it

[pure marsh]

It looks like you need to die more

[random widget]

wow electric motors have skyrocketed in price

[bold kernel]

add a railed handguard

[craggy sapphire]

Thanks

[storm onyx]

lol i have a friend who has been helping

[bold kernel]

@craggy sapphire CAA RS47 is a good one

[craggy sapphire]

The aggressor?

[bold kernel]

if you have it already sure but it's a tad bit expensive

[storm onyx]

so anyway what should i sell and what shouldn't i sell?

[craggy sapphire]

Oh

Okay

[craggy sapphire]

Now i got it on

[random widget]

you can stack backpacks inside backpacks

[storm onyx]

is it more efficient?

[random widget]

well of course you can put 10 backpacks into 1

[bold kernel]

yes

[storm onyx]

cause they all have stuff in them

[random widget]

a 100 ? 1000000 backpacks?

[bold kernel]

not in raid doe 😦

[storm onyx]

oh ok

[random widget]

you can stack 2 at least? 🤔

[storm onyx]

no they're all full

[random widget]

epic, get some big rigs that are space efficient to put stuff in, or you know, get rid of stuff

[storm onyx]

i have like 4 squares total left hence me selling stuff

[random widget]

put the fuel in your generator unless it's full

sell stuff then and try playing solo instead

you'll run out of stuff in no time :D

[bold kernel]

well not big bois

you can't have a pilgrim inside another one in raid

[storm onyx]

i don't have a generator yet

[bold kernel]

oof dude stop scavving and start doing pmc runs and questing

[storm onyx]

i have been

[bold kernel]

do it more lol

[random widget]

ah I've only owned one pilgrim so far... I found out later it's needed for a quest , blaaah

I think he's been handed stuff from his friends, or at least carried

[storm onyx]

well i never take large amounts out on pmc

not true

[random widget]

start using your stuff on upgrading your base then?

didn't you just say you were helped out?

[bold kernel]

mate take out the mp5, some basic armor and go to customs to start doing your basic quests

[storm onyx]

he literally just tells me where i am for extracts cause i was having trouble

that's it

he's not some god

[random widget]

start purging things, you gotta do it sometime until you get enough money for a junkbox or stash upgrade in your hideout

[pure marsh]

If you're not going to use in the next 5 raids and it's not for a quest/upgrade, sell it

[storm onyx]

yeah but what should i sell and what shouldn't i sell

[bold kernel]

@cosmic tinsel oi I'm nearly ready

[random widget]

epic, what I did was check each individual item on the wiki, then sold if it it wasn't for a quest or for a quest that's far ahead of me

[neon willow]

anybody wanna group up lvl 15 the lfg is all sweaty people

[storm onyx]

ok but is there anything besides pistols for rat pmcs that i should keep and besides quest items

[next charm]

my stash is 90% rigs

[storm onyx]

nice my stash is in the chat

[next charm]

fuck standard edition p2w bullshit

[coral jolt]

well theres your problem

[cosmic tinsel]

[coral jolt]

[cosmic tinsel]

i just got outta raid

[next charm]

[bold kernel]

same name in game

[cosmic tinsel]

[bold kernel]

one sec lemme call

[cosmic tinsel]

i can call you if ready

[bold kernel]

I have no idea how I didn't level prapor up already lol

[sly cape]

can some one help me do delivery from the past

[pure marsh]

Did you grab it from customs already?

[cosmic tinsel]

mission accomplished boys

[bold kernel]

tysm dude

[cosmic tinsel]

we walked hmm perhaps out with some zhuk armor

what kinda gun he have btw

[bold kernel]

both had mp153

[cosmic tinsel]

weird dude

turns out i naded that man on the stairs too

[bold kernel]

headshot with the F1 lol

other guys was level38, you got him with the vss

also had this 👀

[pure marsh]

I'll give you $5 for it

[prisma fjord]

there is a lot of easily expendable items there

[storm onyx]

wdym

[prisma fjord]

unless you are standard edition you don't really need that many rigs to hold stuff

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah i knew i dropped him that was a clean headshot, but i dont need cash much lol

[prisma fjord]

and none of those backpacks offer extra storage room

[cosmic tinsel]

was hopin he had a better gun for you

[storm onyx]

i am standard edition

[craggy sapphire]

What do you guys think of my ak build?

[storm onyx]

yeah but they don't take up space

[prisma fjord]

still looks messy and unorganized

[coral jolt]

put a butt pad on it

[bold kernel]

factory is fun if you're good lol you can just kill everyone in 3 minutes and walk out with 1mil worth of loot

[plain raven]

butt pad, also i think you're probably overpaying for your performance but that might just be me

[storm onyx]

it's purely functional at this rate fullness

[craggy sapphire]

My aim is pretty good

[coral jolt]

butt pad is like 5k

and gives crazy stat buff

[cosmic tinsel]

buttpad is best stats/cash in the whole game

[plain raven]

^

[craggy sapphire]

What is it called then?

[plucky gyro]

hey is someone trying to help me out ?

[cosmic tinsel]

linked search the stock

[prisma fjord]

I don't know depends on what it is lmao

[craggy sapphire]

Okay

[cosmic tinsel]

its called rubber buttpad or something

i always call it butt rubber but i dont think thats right lol

[prisma fjord]

you can link search it

[plain raven]

tbh i always feel like the bastion isnt worth it

when im on a budget i just slap a cobra on the side

[cosmic tinsel]

if you're cool w the dovetail cobra

yea

i used to hate the cobra but this wipe its been fine for me

[prisma fjord]

@storm onyx the cleaner it is the better

but mine is still a little splatter of things

also oddly enough the more space you have the more potential to make money

[craggy sapphire]

Wtf

[plain raven]

yeah but cases cost a lot in the first place

[prisma fjord]

only 2.3 mil for the Icases

[cosmic tinsel]

step 1) be rich step 2) dont be poor

[prisma fjord]

and thats if you are doing the trade to Skier

[cosmic tinsel]

😄

[plain raven]

bro i dont even have 2 mil in my inventory rn

[prisma fjord]

you can earn Euros from tasks

[prisma fjord]

lmao

[cosmic tinsel]

where do you keep your vector noob trophies in all of that 😄

[prisma fjord]

i only have 52 mil roubles, but my stash worth is 127 mil

[plain raven]

LMAO

[cosmic tinsel]

i stopped collecting once i got here

[plain raven]

IS THAT A VECTOR WITH A FLIR

WHY

[cosmic tinsel]

i needed somewhere to put my flir

duh

[pure marsh]

Jesus man. Chill

[plain raven]

bro

[prisma fjord]

lol

[cosmic tinsel]

they're a great way to store attachments

[plain raven]

or you know

you could just

have the attachments

by themselves

and sell the vectors

[pure marsh]

It's not even that good. MP9-N>Vector

Change my mind

[plain raven]

toz is the superior weapon

and i dont mean the ks23

[torn kraken]

At what point does armor start to... Matter?

[craggy sapphire]

Where do i find car bats

[plain raven]

yes

[cosmic tinsel]

i do that too

[torn kraken]

I seem to be getting 1 shot through class 4 armor extremely frequently

[cosmic tinsel]

but then i wouldnt be able to feel smug about dunkin vector users

[random widget]

I just press auto sort and cross my fingers , then sell the things sticking out

[cosmic tinsel]

against middle tier opposition

[pure marsh]

Yes you do. Don't lie

[plain raven]

thats just because at this point in the wipe most people are running around with class 5 and ammo that can pen it

[keen sorrel]

If anyone needs help questing/making money let me know! Community games today and a giveaway as well!

[craggy sapphire]

It is very easy to one shot tier 4 armor

[cosmic tinsel]

it is not

[torn kraken]

So TL;DR, unless I have an assload of armor, don't bother with armor.

[cosmic tinsel]

it is very easy to two shot it

[prisma fjord]

yeah eventually unless you are worried about Scavs its best to go armorless

[torn kraken]

assload of money*

[cosmic tinsel]

i have been running a lot of rat rigs and korund

[pure marsh]

T5+ for PvP, rat armor for everything else

[craggy sapphire]

But the real high tier ammo has a pretty high chance to one shot

[cosmic tinsel]

they're cheap, they come back a lot, sometimes they make a difference

[torn kraken]

I've been one shot my past 10 games either in the thorax or in the head

[plain raven]

tbh tarkov is in a wack as fuck state rn

[prisma fjord]

I mean, even T5 and T6 don't stop the best rounds

[random widget]

filling a magazine with "the good stuff" costs more than me buying a new armor almost

[plain raven]

like i wish i could run pvp worthy kits every raid

[cosmic tinsel]

nothin 1 shots thru class 4 consistently except ap-20 and lapua

the head i cant help you with

[plain raven]

but if i do so i will actively hemorrhage money

[pure marsh]

True, but it's better than nothing 🤷

[prisma fjord]

actually not true

[torn kraken]

Apparently that's all I've been getting hit with because I'll be running around and just get 1 dinked. Game reports it as a thorax kill and no other shots were heard

[cosmic tinsel]

maybe if you're runnin fried armor

[prisma fjord]

wearing no armor is better if you feel you will face off against the best ammo

[torn kraken]

Nope, I double check

[plain raven]

depends on the class 4 ur running

[torn kraken]

Full dura

[prisma fjord]

because armor gives negative to stats

watch NoFoodAfterMidnight the guy who made the ammo charts

[torn kraken]

6b5-15 Uley

[cosmic tinsel]

im seeing enough non-bs/995/m61 to justify class 5 still

[prisma fjord]

he wears no armor most of the times this stage of the wipe

you are faster

he ocassionaly wears a helmet

[cosmic tinsel]

if you're goin interchange, labs, resort dont bother

[normal frost]

why do people not wear helmets in labs?

[torn kraken]

I've been going on woods to complete a task, as well as customs

[ocean wolf]

because good ammo will 1 shot anyway

[cosmic tinsel]

all lab ammo soars thru helmets

[torn kraken]

I'm beginning to think about just not wearing armor because I can't afford effective armor

[ocean wolf]

Zhuk-3 good low end armor

[prisma fjord]

if you are new though, armor is still good against scavs, even tier 3 armor

[torn kraken]

Been 1 shot through that too

[ocean wolf]

against player yea ofc

but good for scavs

[torn kraken]

Problem is most of the time if a scav shoots back, it's an insta head shot in my experience

[ocean wolf]

and rats

[plain raven]

the dumb thing is that at this point you will actually make more money going into a raid naked on maps like reserve or interchange

[ocean wolf]

oh easily

[plain raven]

you just get to the loot so much faster

[prisma fjord]

but if you have a really good grasp of the game you can handle scavs really easy, I have a video on my YT and a segment shows what I do to scavs and my first 5 scav kills I am armorless until I picked it up off a dead one

[torn kraken]

I think I've only had a handful of experiences where a scav didn't whip around and plant a bullet between my eyes in the blink of an eye

[prisma fjord]

I used a Saiga-9 as well

[ocean wolf]

i hatchet scavs if im on interchange

[prisma fjord]

a Saiga-9 with PST GZH

[ocean wolf]

1 right click will kill

[prisma fjord]

once you know the game

[craggy sapphire]

But i see pro's rocking bastions all of the time

[prisma fjord]

the game is super easy ngl

[torn kraken]

I can usually deal with scavs, this is more when they do get a shot back

[craggy sapphire]

Oh wait

[torn kraken]

Working on it, that's why I'm here

[ocean wolf]

dont repeak

the same spot

[torn kraken]

I don't. Learned that from R6

[ocean wolf]

then idk just aim at their head pepega

[plain raven]

bro what do you mean repeak, i dont peek at all

[ocean wolf]

joking lol

[plain raven]

im outta there

[ocean wolf]

hatchet run is hated on but i dont see a issue with it, got 8 mil in a few hours hatcheting interchange you just gotta know where to go, i do it untill i have money for gear

[plain raven]

tbh it kinda sucks, if i want to make money i have to rat run, if i want to have fun in combat i have to lose money

[ocean wolf]

yea

[cosmic tinsel]

its not hated on because its not effective

[craggy sapphire]

Is the ulach better then the bastion?

[cosmic tinsel]

its hated on because its brainless, risk free, and takes loot away from people that are actually risking stuff

[cosmic tinsel]

bastion more flexible, ulach is fine

[torn kraken]

Tl;DR the meta slaves are mad

[ocean wolf]

yea i run geared but you cant if you dont have money

[plain raven]

i wouldnt mind running gear if the shit in my container could be sold if i died

[ocean wolf]

thats where hatchet comes in

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah no

dont get me wrong

[ocean wolf]

yea that patch was trash

[pure marsh]

That sounds pretty lit tbh

[cosmic tinsel]

when i get bored i take a shotgun to interchange and grab a couple of graphics cards

[ocean wolf]

oh yea i run zhuk-3 with toz + poleva slugs

for ratting

interchange

[craggy sapphire]

Any good cheap tier five helmets with faceshields?

[mystic lily]

yeah im lowkey shi at this game rn but just started 0_0

[cosmic tinsel]

i just think interchange is lame

[cosmic tinsel]

is the altyn cheap to you?

[torn kraken]

Every time I go into interchange I run smack into someone with armor so thick it looks like they're wearing a snow jacket and a gun I've never seen :I

I stopped going to interchange

[craggy sapphire]

And i can wear headphones

[bold kernel]

OOF poor flir vector dude

[mystic lily]

What is the best starters map?

[pure marsh]

Shoot them in the legs

[craggy sapphire]

Customs

[cosmic tinsel]

the flir came from someone else. the vectors hold more attachments than they take up space

[plain raven]

bro just wear a ushanka and pray

[torn kraken]

Problem; they kill me in 1 shot

[bold kernel]

oh lol

[ocean wolf]

customs for quests but customs is also a noob destroyer map

[plain raven]

^

fun

[cosmic tinsel]

no

[craggy sapphire]

kk

[pure marsh]

Shoreline and woods is easy money

[bold kernel]

I don't think anyone is rich enough to just slap flirs on vectors

[cosmic tinsel]

@craggy sapphire just use the ratnik barter

[plain raven]

bro imagine

[cosmic tinsel]

plenty of people are

[ocean wolf]

shoreline for keys, reserve for gear, interchange for lose loot

loose*

[cosmic tinsel]

someone i follow on twitch just crossed a billion rubles

[plain raven]

yeah the ratnik for bleach is honestly one of the best trades in the game

[cosmic tinsel]

hes got an icase full of moneycases

[plain raven]

lmao

[ocean wolf]

lol

[bold kernel]

;-;

[craggy sapphire]

Ratnik

[pure marsh]

That's the best helmet in Tarkov

[cosmic tinsel]

https://tenor.com/view/best-friends-step-brother-will-ferrell-gif-4030364

[plain raven]

tbh its all i run

[cosmic tinsel]

honestly dont sleep on the tk-mt

or whatever the airsoft helmet is

[pure marsh]

I'm down if you are 😉

[cosmic tinsel]

high ricochet, great mounts, dirt cheap

[plain raven]

oh yeah the tackek

[bold kernel]

ratnik is pretty pog
also can fit nvg so that's a plus

[pure marsh]

Low penalties as well

[bold kernel]

and chep

[plain raven]

tbh most players one tap me to the head anyways through helmet at this point

not counting the pistol runners of course

[cosmic tinsel]

thats exactly why im into the tackek

any bullets goin thru my helmet unless it richochets

and its high ricochet

[pure marsh]

Start one tapping people in the legs. Give them a taste of they're own medicine

[craggy sapphire]

Just imagine all of the other stuff that i need would this be good then?

[plain raven]

shattered mask kekw

[plain raven]

i hate the shattered mask tbh

seeing good ammo just bounce off it hurts my soul

[cosmic tinsel]

i beat a duo by killin one guy, takin his shattered mask, and then getting a richocet off that mask and killin the second dude

[plain raven]

LMAO

[pure marsh]

I'm not a fan of the Korund but it's not a bad loadout by any means

[cosmic tinsel]

korund is based and pogpilled imo

[plain raven]

i like the korund

korund or trooper is what i run

[plain raven]

when im running gear

[craggy sapphire]

uhh

[plain raven]

SINCE IM FUCKING BROKE

[craggy sapphire]

lol

[plain raven]

my reserve keytool is almost complete

[pure marsh]

Make more money silly

[plain raven]

i just need the two expensive doors under hermetic

[craggy sapphire]

There is some sucky ducky shoreline key s in there

[plain raven]

ive found so many graphics cards in offline raids im so salty

i know loot rate is higher but still

[torn kraken]

I'd like to just survive a raid for once

[plain raven]

lol

go shoreline

stay away from the middle

[torn kraken]

Didn't work out for me

[pure marsh]

Or woods

[torn kraken]

Got 1 shot 30 seconds off from spawn

[cosmic tinsel]

shoreline and woods were my free maps in the guide

[pure marsh]

Most SBIH dudes can't aim anyway, I know cause I'm one of them

[torn kraken]

At this point I'm thinking there's just nothing I can do

[plain raven]

i'd say the main trick to starting out in tarkov is not giving up

[cosmic tinsel]

honestly this

theres gamesense that develops

you need to start paying attention to where you spawn

and where other players could spawn

managing sightlines, risk profiles

[plain raven]

bro the other day i wanted to see if i could make money running gear

[torn kraken]

I do, I've spent hours fucking around in offline mode learning maps, I've got multiple monitors with assloads of information everywhere

[plain raven]

i ran 6 raids in a row, full kit

died every time

[cosmic tinsel]

thats good important information but you gotta learn where you die a lot too

[plain raven]

i had like, 10k rubles left

[pure marsh]

If on customs, load in, throw nades at other spawns, profit

[cosmic tinsel]

there are areas of maps that i basically refuse to go to because they're bad news

[torn kraken]

Problem is I never know where I get hit from

Because it's always 1 hit kill

[plain raven]

mood

[dire rock]

see this man knows things

[cosmic tinsel]

move more

[plain raven]

yeah

[torn kraken]

What's your grand solution if I was 1 hit ON THE MOVE

[cosmic tinsel]

you didnt read my second word

[plain raven]

unlucky

[cosmic tinsel]

MORE

[plain raven]

lmao

[cosmic tinsel]

move erratically

[torn kraken]

Ah yeah, silly me, I forgot my warp drive

[cosmic tinsel]

not faster

[plain raven]

but yeah, just move side to side, etc

[cosmic tinsel]

different

[plain raven]

serpentine is actually stupidly effective

[pure marsh]

Be unpredictable

[bold kernel]

@cosmic tinsel is the VSS better than the asval?

[cosmic tinsel]

every time i get one tapped at range its because im slipping

[dire rock]

look, you cant stop every death you will die, but you can mitigate it by watching as much as possible and figuring out when to be cautious and move slower/sneakier and when to haul ass

[cosmic tinsel]

doing things like running in a straight line

[plain raven]

ive had a someone miss an entire mag on me just zig-zagging

[cosmic tinsel]

no i'm just lazy lol

[cosmic tinsel]

literally just have a "casual vss" preset that i use thats dirt cheap and i dont have to think about

[royal bloom]

Could anyone please help me with the Delivery from the past quest? Im struggling to get it done solo and I dont have enough money to keep losing weapons

[cosmic tinsel]

get the docs and i'll go to factory with you

[royal bloom]

okay

[pure marsh]

I can also join a factory run

If needed

[plain raven]

@torn kraken

[royal bloom]

sure

[plain raven]

i die uh

[bold kernel]

oh lol ok

[plain raven]

a lot

[spare sierra]

need to learn im new , mind if i join as well ?

[craggy sapphire]

Not more then me

[plain raven]

im still doing pretty well for myself

[torn kraken]

I can handle dying a lot, but I'm literally at 50k rubles because I can not get anything out

As a scav or PMC

I just survived my first raid in 2 fucking weeks

[cosmic tinsel]

thats a rough break

[plain raven]

that IS unfortunate

[cosmic tinsel]

and honestly based on that info I think you have more to learn about maps and playstyles

[spare sierra]

same i down 200k and i made out only 1time as scav lmao

[plain raven]

scav run, go straight to extraction

[cosmic tinsel]

which isnt a "lol you suck" comment, but rather a "it gets better" point

[torn kraken]

I've already dumped hours into this game

[plain raven]

dont loot anything, just extract

if you die, repeat

[cosmic tinsel]

it takes a lot of hours

[torn kraken]

I've dumped more time into this game trying to just learn it instead of playing it than any programming language I've learned

[spare sierra]

can any of u guys join me for scav run ?

[plain raven]

figure out the safest route to get from where you spawn to extraction

[spare sierra]

i am lvl 2 so dont knw extracts

[torn kraken]

I do, then someone is randomly camping it

[random widget]

I'm at 88 hours now and now I feel like I can go in to a map with a mission, knowing where the quest location is and where to get out. It it mostly ends in me dead, but those times it goes well.. the best feeling

[plain raven]

UNLUCKY

[torn kraken]

I used to have a decent route on customs, then it started getting camped

[plain raven]

try again

[torn kraken]

5 times in a row?

[plain raven]

dont run customs lol

[torn kraken]

I have

[cosmic tinsel]

customs is fine

[torn kraken]

tasks

[plain raven]

i despise customs so much holy shit

not as much as woods

but a lot

[torn kraken]

Other than woods it's been my best map

[cosmic tinsel]

i like customs for pvp

[torn kraken]

I know customs almost like the back of my hand at this point

[plain raven]

reserve is my home

[spare sierra]

i need to do task on customs , can anyone help ?

[plain raven]

i live in white pawn

second floor

thats my home

[torn kraken]

I just need to kill 1 more scav w/o body armor on Woods then I'm done with the part of woods where I have to go looking for a fight

[random widget]

well... until you get the other quests ^^

[pure marsh]

Fuck Jaeger

[plain raven]

jeager is a cunt
