is cultists knife good?
Hmmm
I've seen it one shot people but
I can't tell for sure
Don't buy it tho
It has 2 uses
Lol
oh
Yes
so im hoarding a bunch of items i should be selling
do helmets block any of the damage dealt from a melee weapon?
Every new player has items in his stash that they won't use for a month at least
we can go into a vc and i can stream
They should
If they hit you in the face they don't
I can't I'm at work rn
oh
@haughty tulip Then how tf to people one tap killa with an icepick XD. That seems op
alright ill post some pic real quick
max level strength most be really powerful then
@polar current Max strength is amazing β€οΈ
@haughty tulip Ive seen clips of ppl with max strength walk up to killa with a melee and one tap him to the head
its crazy lol
That might be before he got buffed then
I can't believe someone one tapping killa with an ice pick
He's got one of the best helmets as far as I know
ok im posting some screen shots
But I don't know what's his head hp and how much blunt dmg the pick does
He might pass out of you hit him hard enough that's for sure

@next swallow what lvl are you?
well the helmet part is only level 4
@haughty tulip https://www.reddit.com/r/EscapefromTarkov/comments/m4qnkj/killa_is_so_deaf_lul/ here is an example

Uhj that's nice
can someone help me out with gunsmith quest
i cant get a part
lol and its not on market
Which part
there should be a barter for it then
no its level 4 proper
The part might be bought instantly
TOZ 6P29M Mount
I'd just take it in raid and drop it
Oh God
I sold one to mechanic
That's the Val one?
yeah
i can sell 6 to fence, but you need to be quick
ok
have the flea market open, not the trader window
already there
than k you sir
np
people sell a lot of random shit to fence for some reason
hes only good for busted armors
Also knives before jaeger
anybody wana run custumes,woods, or reserve
anybody wana run custumes,woods, or reserve
im up for custumes what region are you from?
more like is there more the 50 flea market bots active at the same time
gotta ask the real questions 
anyone need help
What do you guys name your containers for keys
they have reasons why they are expensive
name of the map its for
there does not seem to be rampant api abuse like in the days of yore
I have crustems, reserv, wood, intercoursLMAO
Net for sugar and filters go to Emercom on woods for sugar and the back of oli for filters
back of oli is so stacked on water filters
oh those things yea good luck with that
im 90% sure everyone buys
its not because of the price, its because you have to try a bunch before you actually can buy
#sherpa-info @next swallow
the worst part is this problems already been solved by the real world stock market. if we could just put buy and sell orders in everything would be a lot more... restrained
or you overpay a lot
Sherpahub
You are asking too much to nikita

that would probably benefit rmt again
early 80s tech π¦
Rule 1# never forget that Nikita hates you
tarkov HFT 
hey im having issues with my sounds when using discord and game. its scratchy and pops. any ideas?
Anyone want to go for some runs? Im down for anything I just need some help Im pretty new tend to die fairly often
Hello does any fairly new players want to play and learn more together for a few games together Iβm only lvl 6 atm
can you put a pso scope on a mosin
No magazines seem to fit into this rilfe any ideas?
I bought 3 diffrent remington model 700 mags and cant load any of em
sadly not
also try the promag aa-70 mags
either the 10 or 20 rounders
Thank you so much
depends on market conditions! id link search on the barrel and take a look
worth noting that unfortunately you're gonna have to look at both suppressors and suppressor adapters
once upon a time i was usin the daniel defense wave QD but... i havent used 308 this wipe to speak of
assuming hes got pk lvl 4, otherwise hes gotta pay another 30 for the adapter
just remember you also gotta check the price of the mount and a barrel that works
oh really? sorry, i always forget about trader lvls
cause some barrels arent threaded
I killed my first scav boss
good stuff
Gluha
yeah, thats why im hesitant to name cheapest. variety and trader unlocks drive it significantly
bruh
hes a scary boy
i havnt even seen gluhar
ive done one somewhat serious reserve run and i got killed by some player scavs camping in the train waiting for me
and a lot of player scav runs on reserve
never seen him
but isnt he also like one of the hardest to kill?
Isn't Killa the hardest one?
yeah sanitar can be pretty hard
naaa killa rolls solo
also killa is one of the easier ones
you can one tap him if you're killa hunting, and hes super vulnerable to leg meta
just one round of m61 from a hunter to his face and he gone
ah I got my ass handed to me yesterday by Reshala fucker had bodyguards with altyns 4 AP slugs to the face didn't bring em down
reshala is a nightmare when you're not expecting him ha
yeah you just walking and all of a sudden theres just grenade spam at you
exacly
scary af
and yeah, ap slugs are weird against his guys because of the chance for altyns
I counted 5 grenades thrown at me what madman does that
but if you can sneak up against him you can easily take him out
then slowly fuck his guards up
So quick question. I managed to get lucky and extracted with an ultra medical key which I have since sold. Problem is IDK what to buy with my new found wealth and am struggling slightly with inventory space any suggestions (only been playing about a week)
I also just have no idea what i should keep and what i should sell lol
what level are you
11
Any beginners that dont have max traders need a weapons case? Send me a DM!!!
Improve stash
Is the M1A good? Looks pretty nice Im a big fan of Semi auto rifles. Thinking a scoped M1A could be good Could it?
is kourend armour any good or is there better stuff for 100k
Escape From Tarkov quest & hideout progress helper. Plan and track your way to Kappa with information tailored to your PMC.
also use that
for all the items you need
i have level 4 stash already
Improve everything else
@tropic vapor depends on how serious you mean to take the game, are you doing hideout work? Are you grinding kappa?
its probably one of the best level 5 armors
Max hideout is what you need
yeah
its a very good 308 platform
so once you can buy it from prapor it's a go to?
Then spend cash to finish the gunsmith tasks
rush bitcoin farm korkenko
yeah once i unlocked it thats basically the only thing i have run
yeah im kinda at that point
im struggling with quests atm
And save money
what quests do you have
@tropic vapor either save up 100 dog tags for a scav box, or buy one and stack all of your components in there. From there gather a list of items you need for hideout upgrades (these do not need to be found in raid) so fee free to shove them in your pouch. Then gather a list for quest items that need to be found in raid, pretty much all you need to know
yeah ive been playing for a while and i only have like 30 dogtags for it
shootout picnic 4/15
aquarius part 1
sanitary standards
stirrup 0/3
Whats on the flash drive
BP depot 1/4
acquaintance
however i have been selling a lot of them
I keep them on my dogtag case
do bp dpot and craft the flash drives dont waste time on stirup
if you do the lucky scav trade for dogtags only use ones under lvl 30
cause otherwise you wont make much of a profit and you might as well just craft it
you need intel center 2 for crafting flash drives
which is very annoying to get
so just buy a scav box and keep grinding these quests?
yeah i dont know inter too well
grind quests as much as possiible
they give good xp and money
also whenever you have a gunsmith task available do it
yeah i already did gunsmith one
they give a lot of bitcoins rn and they are worth like 800k
so big money from those
and they are really easy
Ive just been soloing everything so my survive rate is only like 30%
i did 9 gunsmiths and leveled up 5 times the xp it gives is insane
fr did the rsass part when bitcoin was 830k
its easy and gives good rewards
oh
i did that early wipe when bitcoin was 400k
and also when the rsass was 1 mil
well my first sniping trip went as expected π
i did that 3 weeks ago because i got an rsass from marked
the rsass is also like 300k or so now i think
highest ive seen was 2.2mil
its a lot cheaper than it was at beginning of wipe
yeah way cheaper
because nobody wants to use it
And then i died
i just dropped a dude with a 50some recoil rsass in dorms. was weird
im really not sure what its place is other than 100+ yard stuff
even at long range the m1a is better
yeah just tested
you can make it through all of the tech stores as a hatchling
no scavs
got a gpu pogu
its stupid, yeah
danm bitcoin only 770k now
only problem is the weight system, if you could run faster with gear the hatchlings wouldnt stand a chance
or load some scavs at the beginning
Can you not put custom sights on M1A?
you can
max endurance and sj6 stims
is the difference between high endurance and elite very noticeable?
im at 47 now, so almost there
you're gonna love it
cant wait
Man I wish I had max end
grind for max strength next i guess
i get max str after kappa and red card
i cant be bothered with max strength
i dont need either
You find or buy the red blank?
My friend found ultra medical in a jacket
isnt max strength pretty op
yeah but not worth
cause the elite perk makes all your gear on the left side not weigh anything for your limit
so you can carry a fuck ton of stuff in your backpack and riig
what level should i aim for?
100
im not even at 20 i think
my end is at 47
lucky scav junkbox is what i want right?
but i dont seek out pvp usually
Killing 1 person and extracting with their gear should put you overweight
yes
@tropic vapor yes
also i never run into people that geared usually
even when running resort
also whoever was asking earlier i dont even know what kappa is
bruh ur in #beginners-assistance mosst ppl here dont play labs cuz there helping newer players or are newer players
Kappa is twitch emote
Itβs my first wipe
I play lab
Me and other people bring new players to labs a lot
cool the majority of the people i help here are below level 15
and need help with delivery from the past
and other low tier quests
Smh
Can anyone help tonight to woods? i want to find the jagers camp π
Kappa is the secure container
I get overweight on like all maps
mule in the secure container
I'm too hungry for jokes
Raiders weigh a lot
bruh holy fuck
WTF DUDE
why is solar so expensive
I just lost a gpu :D
does it count as not overweight in regards to skills when you pop a mule?
like 2 mil per
but still its like another 4 mil for all the euros
and military cables were like 40k
they at like 60k now
They fluctuate a lot
I need help with doing skier quests
certainly does, but if you're at diminishing returns and you're fulla raider gear, pop that mule
No
usually customs
man you could ask 5 people and get 5 difference answers. i personally think it makes sense to start customs as most of the early quests are there
Best ammo for beginners m995
I thought you said ammo
Obv
its easy to learn and also a lot of early quests are on it
Oh yeah
but a lot of players like to start interchange for huge loot to get comfortable, or shoreline because its pretty quiet outside of resort
I think 762 ps is best ammo for beginners
agree 100%
Shot out of an sks
When I was learning game
Someone tried teaching me how to be a rat
Cheap and hits hard
ty for the advice π
Any experienced players mind helping me? How do i wear these airpods?
u pay 12 btc
Thx, I had a really hard time on factory :/
depends, do you prefer head, eyes or head, ears?
i think factory is a good way to learn pvp, but pvp is not the first thing you should learn
Anyone got a meta Rsass build?
Head eyes i think
Factory bad for pvp
Be a gigs rat till u can afford labs and learn there
ehhh its lowbies
it gave me the confidence point firing that i was able to take to resort
bro tf you mean its lowbies
Run sks with bp all the way to level 40
my warmup raid
i only find chads running forts with altyns and every stim in the game applied
They are all below level 30 KEKW
thats what im sayin
Bully
also mostly rpks with igolnik
i only see that during punisher quals
that or meta hk with 995
Igolnik is trash
and that seems to have calmed down
Use BS ammo
all pistols and pump actions today
Lost another gpu :D
What would be better: USEC or BEAR?
i think usec is strictly better, because you have voicelines
yeah usec
that said, bear can say "dicky needles", which people seem to enjoy
Bear breathes loud
I chose BEAR -_-
Like a noob
its fine honestly
"my way or highway lul"
unless you want the bear voicelines and like the bear clothing usec is better early cause you usually get better stuff
I got five gpu's now for my future btc farm :D
:))
Exactly
but a little later it doesnt matter since they all have the same stuff
can anyone join the beginner assistance chat?
also if you have 3 fir you need to turn them in for farming part 4
No
I havn't even done farming part 1
@golden loom Iβm just not going to do that quest lol
you need to if you want kappa
you hate money or what
I donβt want kappa
theres 6 bitcoins, a graphics card, and a reap-ir behind that quest
Oh
one is just 5 caps and 5 wires
I want epsilion
I have gamma but I want epsilion
and the other is a vpx and rfid which can both be crafted
also why would you want epsilon
How do i get the gamma caontainer
you have to buy eod
Oh
@golden loom I got a lot of non fir ones
I am buying it next month
if you do decide to get it wait for next sale
Can I use those
no they need to be fir
π€£
Reeeee
Do you get the gamma container immediatly
yea
Ya
Oh
the game will send you a message saying claim all your shit
also gamma is always worth
Get yo shit
more room for meds and stuff

I donβt put gpu in container cause Iβm weirdo
What
Heresy
For a reason you have your prison pocket
Pmcs don't check it cause that's gay
I have enough money and if I die I have to rebuy the stuff I brought into raid
you can put a sicc/docs case in your gamma along with surv 12 and still have same room as alpha
When I get epsilion Iβm doing docs case 2 mags golden star and ammo
and usually i still just fill that with meds
Cms is never enough when you fight 3 times in one raid
man , this game is hard to play without your friends
y e s
yeah its brutal in the beginning if you playing solo
ive learned to play solo since my friends slowly got burnt out
Hearing is 80% of the gameplay
agree. ive been bailin on my buddies lately
My friends carry me lol
That's different
I carry a lot of new people
But when there's a fight I have to tell them
Sit on that corner and don't make a sound
Solo is better
yeah my friends are very good at communicating so we dont have that problem
Dying and knowing your stuff isnβt coming back makes you not want to die
and also very good at shutting the fuck up
lol wut are friends
yeah but getting carried sucks after a while! I've been trying to get better while my friends are away on family stuff
Having friends carry ur loot out makes you careless with ur loot
If I die I usually let people take my kit
Slightly go towards pvp
honestly what made me get a little better is just farming shturman
First make sure ypu can loot like a God
ive run woods a fuck ton
what do you all consider a beginner?
Fuck woods
@golden loom gluhar is good practice
ooo where the best play to kill scavs then i need 11 more
it varies from person to person but i would say first wipe or so probable
Raiders op
honestly it can be anyone. i show up an ask questions every now and then and im 4 wipes deep
everyone on their first two wipes 
im also on my first wipe
i have never seen that fucker
Well there's a lot to know
only been playing since like thursday
Do u know his spawns
I've seen him enough times thank you
yes
My buddy always talks about the wipe, its where you start over right?
i know all the maps well and all the boss spawns
My scav is sacared of him
School field drop down k buildings
i just never fucking find him ever
Not him but his guards
yep
like seasons in diablo or PoE
The one across from RB ST
I was playing scav and I said "oh I'm gonna go farm some raiders"
I got a scope an ak with ps a couple headshots should do the trick
I thought so
I killed one and then the other one didn't even move or died from around 15 headshots from train station
I'm like
Alright what the fuck
So I pushed
if there werent wipes this game would be impossible
everybody would have infinite money and max skills
I farm raiders with scav
Yes
Shoot them in head
2 raiders can be 1m roubles
If altyn shoot stomach
Do they?
Easy
I think they don't wear altyn
The guards
Bro just shoot their legs from behind the truck in hermetic
Can fragment to thorax
I mainly just rat around as a scav, good resource for staying out of the negative
Why is there so much delay?
thats a really good way to start. you can run low risk PMC runs as well - i recommend an SKS with PS ammo, and just top load it
Also there's the machine gun on the tower behind hermetic
And if you have to fight leg meta

People are so concerned about getting shot in the head they forget their legs got no armor
leg meta?
Donβt leg meta
The moment you prone behind a car it's free loot
You are asking too much for new people
Wym
They don't know how every armor looks like
Legs are thinner than sotmac
A d which one protects stomach and which doesn't
Wym lol
a fuck ton of armor still protects stomach tho
Most armor is thorax only
Most raider armor*
Yeah
Only shoot lower when they have a face shield tho
its literally just trooper hex and slick for non rigs
Or if you are behind that truck the legs
can I join any of these calls to listen or is it specifically for the people in there
They can spawn with gen4
and there are only like 4 thorax only rigs
Do they get visors?
I got one
Not raiders
From raider
No...
I can guarantee it
they can
Could someone help me on jager introduction
Because I spawned them and killed them
And I had a beautiful gen4 75/75
Since I shot them in the legs
they spawn with 2 of the 3 gen 4
finding the camp?
I have that one too
Surviving
Lol
I know where everything is
Raider spawn with that heavy one and he grid
I am
Yeah
They donβt have the zabralo
No
Thatβs guard only
Just the heavy one
Yep
I thought u meant the zabralo
I mean I just said gen4
Oh
I didn't specify because I don't know the exact name
I forgot that existed lol

But anyway
I had the letter for jager and when I was heading back I looked over a hill by wood cutting area for literally 2 seconds and got one tapped by some sniper
That spot allows you to cheese it so easy
Yeah
But you better not peak those fookers for too long
It doesn't matter where you are shooting from
It's guaranteed headshot if you stare too long

Can someone escort me through woods lol
What we talking about?
Raiders
Ah
Btw
Fuck those guys am I right?
Lol
Usually they have decent flesh dmg round
Now...
If you are like me
Which they God damn scavs spawn with snipers
Different story
18 with pst gzh
I've had 8/10 scavs with snipers this weekend
If you have a pistol you better not
Smh
Thatβs unfortunate
just had my first juicy scav extract π
π
1 pmc one player scav dead
Show
Donβt be shy show us
yeah lemme combine it all into a screenshot
Yeah
Anyone got tips on how to get RR?
Tired of getting extract camped
dothe barter
Saka farm Saturnian
I donβt even have level 2 jaeger
Fuck auto correct
Don't fuck the auto correct
The batter is worth it
FUCK
im pretty proud
Should I just buy a mosin and try or what should I do
11 rounds of m80 to legs
the game is gently guiding you away from ratting reserve, then
For raider
Out of a vepr hunter
all the bags are open
it was already int he bag when i pulled it off the pmx
It's useful for Jaeger task tho
and it fit well so why not
You disrespect baby myosin?!!??!!
you can try. i did the shturman farming quest and i found 0 red rebels on his body or in the stash. i probably looted body 17 of 25 times, and stash 5-10 times
I donβt rat I actually like pvp and do well and I have fuck ton of keys I just get camped at d2 every time
Yeah that happens
And hitting hermetic isnβt an option when Iβm solo
Hmmm
Cause ik Iβll die to raiders
Run underground after you hit it
Your best bet is to kill the zombies in d2
i mean the options are 1)shturman, 2) shturman stash 3) pay rubles 4) barter
How much is a RR on flea
just sit at hermetic and wait for someone else to hit it
Lol
like 4 mil i think
7 mill I think
oh damn
I check
How much would be trough barter
15 dfuel, 15 propane, 10 fcond iirc
Scam
duh, thats why i said do the barter lol
Iirc?
If someone gives me the money Iβll get it through barter for them
The barter is like 1.5 mil or something
if i recall correctly
i wouldnt buy rr unless you run reserve a fuck ton
Itβs the main map I run
he does
or woods 
Barter is at most 2.5 mil
sounds like he runs reserve and doesnt do quests
and by buy i mean from flea or barter
RR is red armband gang
I bartered for mine
otherwise just farm shturman
@cosmic tinsel is right
OK so 750k + 1.75m + what? 300k?
hes pretty easy to kill
so you're either gonna have to do quests or pay big lol
I suck at doing quests
Git gud
well its a good thing you run a loot heavy map π
Fuck Jaeger lvl 4 tho
have you had luck with this? not sure if you saw my experience but the drop rate was not good
Jaeger bad
hes fine you just gotta play his games
if you wanna farm shturman for rr just bring mp153 with 8 round extension and magnum buck
I'm tired of this 360 no scope a scav after drinking a FIR vodka and made a loop around woods while singing la cucaracha
also i havnt gotten one yet but only killed him like 3 or 4 times so far
Fuck that
so i killed him 25 times for quest alone
but his stash has like a 1/25 chance of dropping it
and sprinted at body with empty melee slot every time i confirmed the kill
its definitely possible, but the barter is by far the best option from a time invested perspective
Yes
And cheap
One Saturday in reserve it's 7m roubles
Just scav
I do my pmc in factory

Any good reserve keys that i can afford?
I like being flashed half the time
if you need to kill shturman for the quest tho i would say farm him first and if you dont get it from him or his stash in the 25 then to barter
The marked room under black pawn
quest is non-kappa
And the one with the shit load of machine guns
Just barter the weapons case
he isnt that hard
but if this dudes a reserve rat
also i suck at combat so
id steer him towards doin a little bit of jaeger or spending a pile of money
Well how can you get good if you don't get enough (head,eyes)
wat
Steer everyone towards labs so they go bankrupt like me π
I don't have flee
Oy you dot get good until your 1000 (head,eyes)
Easier said than done heh
Focus on your tasks
But yes I'm workin on it
Your kneecaps are a privilege not a right... remember that
-Ks 23 Karl
Run customs until you are sick of it
also do any gunsmith task as soon as you get it
most of them give you profit from doing them
Your eyes also

you need to do gunsmith lvl 1 to open up mechanic quest tree
Is skier level 2 easy to get
Yes?
can nikita let us just wear like 10 pairs of sunglasses
Idk how to level up the traders
protect aginst the star rounds
this barter gets you the RTC and foregrip, and its level 1 mechanic
True but it costs 2 pliers and a screwdriver and I ain't got an idea on how to get those
you'll need to unlock jaeger for the pistol grip - thats the "introduction" quest from mechanic
Yup I just did that one actually
So I have the standard version of the game and I just started. Is it worth it to purchase the beta container from peacekeeper or should I wait for epsilon?
If you can get beta do it
if you're playin a lot of this game, i'd wait, but if you're playing casually or ratting, you can grab the beta

Beta looks cooler
wojan you should try to be at least a bit helpful
No
Sad
100%
Fuck Kappa
My help is immense
sure
immensely something lol
#GammaGang
Helped a new player get like 9m
look, im cool, i play ks23 and kill a lot of pmcs
Heβs level 7
youre not contributing to any discussion here, youre just bragging
or youre trying to
I'd buy eod again if I could just so Nikita can get enough money to get a decent server
Idk how he canβt get better servers
His answer got a reply and that's what matters
how do i avoid getting fucking breach and cleared by seal team 6 5 seconds after spawning in whilst looting a building, it feels like alot of my deaths are from circumstance/bad timing/lack of awareness (getting one tapped from afar or just getting snuck up on by a chad)
When cheaters pay like 120$ a day
Map knowledge
Don't loot until is safe
Comes with time
looting is noisy
Learn pmc spawns
You know what is safe and what isnβt
they likely hear you shuffingly and opening containers
Eventually
Fight or find a secure area the loot
@haughty tulip yeah i need to do better about securing the area before i loot it
That requires you to know the spawns
And how long it takes from certain spawns into that location
That comes mostly from playing
Should i buy a keytool?
I have 2.3 mil
Ik
if you only have an alpha, keytool can be worth it
otherwise get a docs
What tasks should I do for level 10
all of them
All of them
When bitcoin farm? @craggy sapphire
unless u want to end up like me
What he said
Level 42 who needs to find shotguns for prapor
Don't joke with that
No way you haven't done that
Oh
You are far from it
Not too far
Still quite far
most of the stuff you need for upgrades is pretty cheap by now
Do scav guns count as found in raid
yes
Alright thanks
everything that spawns on the map is fir
Everything you spawn with
And idk whatt key i need for the extornist
The repost
WHATS THE NBAME FOR THE BOX YOU CAN HOLD FOOD IN
the key is a guaranteed spawn
didnt mean to yell
How do I make trader spending go up? Do I have to buy from them or sell to them?
holodilnick
Give to skier not repest
yeah its both buying and selling
thx
Both
yes
You can get it for free
time to find a weapons case thicc case red keycard and red rebel in marked room
In the unknown scav
and become the richest man in tarkov
It's 10k just buy it
and a couple gpus
I did
it spawns every raid on that body, and its unlikely somebody will loot it
Besides when I needed the key
if you need that you can go to the shed i think by unitar roadblock
I've never looted that body
i mean, if its only 10k i would buy it too
saves a trip
Yeah
iwel i might start looting it 10k is 10k
