They just patrol the area until they see someone
The moment they see your ass they rush you
hey guys fairly new to the game, cant seem to survive solo any tips?
take your time, and learn the safest routes on each map
learn maps in offline, map knowledge is more important than gunplay skills
is it worth buying body armor/bags?
yeah, paca's are cheap and any player will blast through them, but it gives you a chance against scavs
armor is always worth it, bags give you a chance to make money
when you're new i think armored rigs are a good middle ground. they offer some protection and some space to make money
i'll try that, i also tried the group matchmaking a couple of times to find out i just get TK'd from the word go, am i unlucky or is that common?
yep dont accept random invites they'll drop you instantly
if you're trying to find people do it from this discord, it's really hard to play without comms
I was wondering if anyone could help me get better at the game. Just started
I can answer any questions you might have, anything specific?
yeah i have comms, thanks for the help guys, if anyone wants to team and try to put some work in im down
eu/us?
UK
Count me in
Well, i really understand much. like how do i leave raids and whats the stuff i can pick up
hello
I got an hgrid off a guy I killed
repaired it and it's got 46.3 dura
is it still gud?
max is 50 so that'll be fine
my main concern is that it only protects the thorax and a blacked stomach does 1.5x damage to all other limbs
its still fine
thats not a big deal
it kinda is..
its a trade-off because now stomach hits dont break ur armor
so then you wont be low armor and get 1 hit in thorax later on
yeah but now instead of being able to take a shrap10 aimed at my thorax/stomach it will one shot me in the stomach easy
yeh ig
!wiki rb-op key
Smh I am not interested in the basics but where they hang out after you start killing them because they disappear from the buildings
barely
i just have insane aim but no game knowledge π
i went in before with sks with 20bp rounds
killed raiders got m4
killed fully geared guys
ah i see i dont play reserve
How do you have so much money
i only just started reserve
i like woods and customs more so its harder to get loot
I am level 23
also that gzhel you might wanna sell
just hit level 10
30 dura will make it so you can get 1 hit
And i have 700k because OF THE FUCKING TETRIZ NERF
by decent ammo
to fence
you can use it if you want its really good
its 48.2/48.2
killa is the best class 5 i believe so as long as its at least 75% then its good
i forget the max durability
i have killa and a hexgrid not found in raid man it sucks :/
btw i recommend hotkeying your meds unless the hotkeys dont show up in out of raid
ik
hello, I'm new to this game. I have about 20 hours on the game and I still almost always get smacked as a pmc every game. I have 3 pmc kills. As a scav I'm better and I manage to get some kills. Recently I,ve gotten a bit better and I managed to extract safely as a pmc more often but I almost never can get into a gunfight cuz I randomly die from a bullet in the head or a random grenade. I've watched quite a lot of guides (pestily mostly) and welyn's youtube videos. I know I'm supposed to die a lot and I know this game is brutal for begginers but all I want is to just get into some fair gunfights cuz just running around the edge of the map and looting what I can gets a bit boring. I like playing on customs, interchange and shoreline as an pmc and reserve as a scav.
there still good armors reguardless
killa armor max is 60
its fine then, 48 is still a solid number
focus on tasks maybe try woods you wont fight many people there
but if it gets zeroed or like down to 25 then throw it away or sell it
I have 700k
what place is the best to start off at
tho
i feel like the game forces you to once your broke
And i am level 23
map?
Yeah what map
Customs, interchange and Shoreline
you will have to play customs for your 1 st quest
wha
even though its hard
I tried woods and I got completely lost even though I had a really detailed map opened on google. I may try it again sometime though
Interchange is a solid map to learn now but later on its gonna be nerfed
@orchid thistle are you NA? i could help you out sometimes
in terms of loot
go to the sherpa server
I'm EU unfortunately :/
f
its in the #sherpa-info chat
!sherpahub
I'm down to play with anyone in EU who could help me out a bit though π
thats fine
@orchid thistle i could still play if you are west side of EU
omfg having a good raid once in a while is the only reason I play tarkov
fuck yeah
i play tarkov with my friends xd
ppsh on factory is so funny to use
it doesnt really matter the rank you're at, if you just need someone to re teach you stuff then they'll be happy to do it, and if not then just ask for advice and info
haha
Okay
my launcher says my region is EUR
damn
lmao
that sucks
ppsh = best gun killed all these peoples on factory time to die with their gear
na lmao
jokes its just fun to use sometimes after dying
I think if you killed someone on factory with a toz they'd uninstall
ight im goin in with toz brb
lol
well you got the chad group hahah
but still
blow my nuts dad is a perfect name lmao
reserve makes dreams happen xd
π
i just dont like that map
but yeah gear fear isn't a thing with a squad xD
i want that raider loot tho
at level 9 clapping geared guys from miles away
i would go solo geared but i dont know the game well enough to
fax , i have gear fear but i play with 1,2 people and it all oes away
i have 320 hrslike 10 of them are with people
yep same just did 2 raids with a rat buddy on shoreline
Feels good to third party 2 squads lmao
fax and knowing someone can dump relives that stress of bringing good stuff
unless your squad gets wiped
ye but thats a lower chance then going solo every raid
like we did cuz we were running bad gear on customs and got obliterated by some guy with pp19 using 7n31 xD
well i 1 tapped him thru his exfil with a vpo215 then his buddy got me after camping 15 minutes
who tf brings an exfil and a pp
idk
that combo just dont work
and he had an empty mpx drum on him
the guy i killed must have been a yt guy or sum he had a tv-110 , ulach , attack 2 and a FN pistol ...
π€·ββοΈ
on what map
factory haha
weird guy
yo stfu
who does zero to hero with a huge backpack on factory
ikr
is this the guy you killed @unborn compass xd
idk who this guy is
lmao
his name was fathagregori lol
yeah thats me
i just noiticed your pfp moves wtf
technically keytool is infinite profit assuming you use the keys. i would just buy it
nitro π¦
Scavs tho innit
is whole mag 6.3?
yes
how much money do you have rn?
i have like 200 more i just crafted aswell
keep the 6.3
you could top up that mag with 6.3 then get a cheaper mag
like do you need the money
i'd keep it unless you have pk L3
8 mil i just bought 6 gpus lol
yeah just keep it then
buy the rations from flea
you can buy the mre's
just seems so boring to dress up as a blue man
lol
on a map i dont like
dude the resort is so fucking good for loot if you have keys
i think i have some
smorf
I deadass got the game two days ago, what are basic things I shoudl bring with me? Do I have to compensate for bullet drop/wind? Is there a way to help my aim or just git gud
no wind
are any of these resort>
all the sans
bullet drop
no wind afaik
no wind
bullet drop is minimal but depends on range and bullet velocity
run like sks, some ps ammo, paca, ssh68 helmet, meds in your container
experience
if you have no scope, dont worry abt drop
I have scope
just aim at the top of their head
it hits either way
usually
or their thorax
mosin 1 hits most armors in thorax
Cool
Also I have a level 4 rig that gives armor, is that any good?
I could show a pic of my gear soon
yes thats a good budget one , tac rigs
one of these?
bottom right best rig
Helping people with tasks, dm me. Making a queue too so if I'm mid-raid ask to join that! Currently loading into a customs run, have open slots after this.
Should i use the svds or sell?
i like it
shit π
its a decent gun
hey guys what are the best resort keys? right now I have the tape key, west220 and east205
i have like 20-30
wish it showed money spent in flea market id at least have 300m lol
I need to spend 750k more with Jaeger. What is the best way to buy and sell without losing much money?
axes
antique axes from flea
^^
ive had the game for 2 months
xd
nearly at least but i only have 50-60 hours
i have 4 and im prob better than u
lmao
toxicity has arrived

good while it lasted
what u gonna do ab it
it seemed alittle to nontoxic here
ignore you
im glad hes here
This is a chat to help people
anyways
pussy move
I want some more keys for resort, I only have tape key, west 220 and east 205 right now
What are the best ones
i can almost bet money that this mf is a weeb
Either bitten left or top left
use a map, my suggestion is map genie, and take alook at loot behind locked doors
i once got 200% accuracy in a raid
is he legit gonna ignore me
collateral FTW
fkn fortnite kid
@bold kernel
still counts as only one hit
Yes
@bold kernel
congratz
Rip my loot
no1 gives a fuck
i shot 1 bullet, killed to scavs and died to a third xD
Damn
no mod here?
why were the scavs in each other π³
What is that guy btw why is this kid so angry
ayooooo

what r u gonna do ab it
i bet
saved me from so many shots on factory
Idk I just sell everything
I need maneh
Mah bitcoin farm
Spent around 13m for solar panel and another 7 for gpus
And I got so much to buy still
God damn
can som1 get a mod, its too much toxic kids in here!!!!
solar panel isnt worth it imo
wow ur officially a neek
Btw my guy, I do have a brain and blocked you already so I can't see what you say
lmao pussy move
If you have one you'll stop talking unnecessarily
someone should do the math. they increased the price again, maybe its not worth it right now
where tf are ur balls
yesterday
Ah
yeah I think they did 2 d ago
oh nice
It's so dumb

i did mine 4 days ago
Nice

what level yall at
ah fair
14 
Bro I swear I need help to not waste raiders loot
Or shopping cart
Because god dayum
i play too much, lvl 48...
Oh dear, i just found someone who was very new, im a scav, hes also one and he shot me in the middle of about 7 other scavs, poor dude
all i did was wave at him xD
does the eye pro against flashbangs stack?
Like if I have an altyn faceshield with 25% reduction and a pair of crossbow glasses with 30% is it 55%?
ive heard it does
It does
its time reduction right?
yeah
kinda dumb
nah
standard eedition is so aids
Idk
kinda pog
should reduce strength, not time
you can basically go make a cuppa in the time it takes a STAR to wear off
Rate this gun
i think you should wait till next wipe/sale to upgrade
I want to know opinions
that scope is aids period.
Oh no I know that
scope, foregrip, bigger mag
get a foregrip and bigger mags, 20 rounders on a m4 wont last long
imagine running good guns when you can run a shit ak with a drum of ps 7.62 or 5.45 bt
yep
I had a hard time using the one in the dt mdr
xps3-0 is good
they others have multiple dots
I just sold it tho
thats a good holo, the one with the magnifier is dogshit
If it's got 2 dots in the circle
the xps3-0 is the cleanest
is the area between the 2 construction sights on Customs 100M+? middle construction and old one (located near elbox/med house)
As a scav I don't have that luxury

But I'll make note
I want to do a pmc night time reserve
so you have chosen....death
I want to find Glukhart again
Well as an OP scav player in reserve
I believe in my survival skills
good luck
im doomed when it comes to reserve, or cursed
dude xps3-0 at night makes it impossible to aim lol
at day it's pog
I run it on everything
You are not alone
That place is hell of a party all the time
If it ain't an army of fully geared pmcs
It's an army of raider looted scavs
It's hard to fight an army
I actually got surprised no one 3rd party me while fighting the raiders
I got no space for meds
Damn
Is this on reserve?

what gun are you using
If the stuff you are using to craft it are not priced higher than the vpx then yes
orsis
π€
Does it have an eye cup?
Vudu doesn't have an eyecup
What mount are you using
Why it looks like that
It hurts me eyes

Oh dayum
Poor pmc brought a nice svds with 7N1
eye relief
means the scope is too far from your eye
try using a different mount
like level 16 or somethin, would this be an OK setup to run for customs?
Aight
and btw that faceshield is the class2 one that'll shatter in like 2 hits
one hit
wont protect from anything but buckshot
and if they are shooting bushot at you it will hit under the faceshield as well so dosent trally matter
yeah that shield is only for eyes i think
aight thx
i swear the PM pistols are a myth. i AM cursed when it comes to pistol quests, the gold TT took me 2 weeks
scav factory
Can the compass be looted from my corpse or is it like the melee weapon?
It's like the melee weapon
Awesome
Yeah compasses, melee weapons and arm bands cannot be looted off of bodies unless they are in like a rig or a backpack
Damn
Hunter is prolly the worst weapon to fight raiders with
Even a TOZ is better

Wait no
A hunter with what ammo?
Yeah of course lmao
I'd just get rid of the gun at that point

I couldn't
Well I did
But I couldn't get to the bodies
Because of raiders ofc

Scav ammo is garbage 99.9% of the time
They blacked out my leg early
Yeah but a pistol with pts gzh is better than the hunter
Fookin hunter
Yeah but you get those every so often
It's hard to kill raiders without good ammo
You'd be lucky to kill 2 raiders with tpz
I don't need good ammo
I just need something that's not a hunter
Even a mosin is easy kills on them
But the hunter is so bad even if my aim is right on their face
I just get railed by raiders anyway so I dont fight them unless I have a sniper
A glock with a 50 rnd
No
One of the cheap weapons
With 18 round mags
and pts gzh
That's enough for me
A pm with a 50 round?
No pm is trash
I don't want to have to get close to kill them
I don't think that will go well
PM are not accurate at all
Well my next scav got the tommy
Now that's what I call premium scav
If the raiders spawn near K buildings again I'm gonna kill them in 10m
isnt pm drumm mag like 80 rounds
Can't remember
Some ridiculous amount for a pistol
84 rounds
Damn today I haven't had so much luck with raiders
Either they don't spawn or some weird shit happens
What is best place to find FireKlean its my last item for kappa
i found fireklean and firesteel both in 301 west shoreline
Maybe Wiki also helps for your luck
Well it tells you where it can spawn
If no one can tell you here
I need to arm myself with courage to go night time reserve
Well
At least if I die
my kit was free

Including the nvg
Since Glukhart can spawn with it
It was free
I love scav runs on reserve
It's unlimited nice stuff
Ye lmao
I just hope I don't find glukhart while my scav has a hunter
Even a saiga and 10 rounds is plenty
But not a hunter
Anything but a hunter
Well if it's glukhart god forbids one of his guards has a Rys-t
Or whatever name it has
The key?
Oh the class 4 one with a face shield
Yeah
Gotcha
I already had an encounter
That dude ate bullets
He had lvl 5 armor and the helmet

Yep
I didn't know it was glukhart
I thought it was raiders
I killed glukhart with an ak and a pso1 from train station
And I didn't know
That was a sad day
They all look the same when you start shooting them
A sad day where I could've earned me some money
From far and at night everything looks the same

Well here I go
Its whoever can black out your limbs the quickest is Gluhar
I hope they don't black out my leg again
Yeah he's the last of my concerns honestly
He's weird af
And if you shoot properly he doesn't shoot back
That's how I killed him today
Unloaded 20 bullets in his head
Never heard the term "shoot properly" when referring to Gluhar
maybe i'm just super lucky
I've seen in a few videos where they just stand still and absorb bullets then die
Have slots open for customs helping with tasks, dm me asap
how common are ledxes in sanitar's office
very common
really just depends on your luck because there are like 6 spawns in there but i have never found one in like 25 runs or so
i find them almost every run
I've come across like a dozen people now who keep one rouble in each of their four pockets, why are people doing this?
what
one rouble in each pocket
That's an amazing idea
I'm going in factory just to have someone search my bod
anyone need help
if I insure an empty bag, pick up a load of stuff in raid and then die, what happens to the stuff I picked up in raid?
you dont get it @bitter oak
ok ty
Either You got shit luck or I have some mad luck cause I got the tape key and the first raid i got a ledx lol
its probably the first
i also happened to get 3 ledx without getting a single ophthalmoscope for private clinic
Tape key?
Yep
also cause sanitar is easy to farm
Wtf

It paid for itself 20x over on the first run lmao
Used the profit to get myself some ninja armor and a bunch of other resort keys
They used to only be barters
I love resort
Me and a buddy third partied 2 squads fighting it out in east wing last raid
5 bodies mm
Is there any helmet better than the altyn
Here goes mosin man
The rat of the night
Killer of pmcs
Destroyer of raiders
Ah yes

Gamer eyes
ahahaha yes
I can actually kill raiders without getting shot with that thing
So it works
Since it's really accurate
thats a uh toz
Oh fock
not a mosin
AHHHH
ya its better
LMAO

ignore my survival rate
Lol
what's wrong with ti
its to good
Ey we got a similar rate
i dont wanna make anyone jealous
We just cracked bro
how much
@rocky stone YOOO thanks for reminding me of how pog the adar is
I've been running too many hks and vectors lol
20 k
Itβs probably not too bad, itβs looking like a golden star but for bleeds
Adars are just insane man
meh
Pop it while ur wearing a slick and altyn and rush
Ye I doinked so many pmcs with one
fuck adars m4/hk gang all the way
That + meladonin + golden star
Blasphemy
Itβs so satisfying
I dislike your opinion
I prefer adars because it forces me to take a second with my shots, full auto doesnβt do much when I canβt control recoil yet
Full auto or not it's just so fucking satisfying
Especially paired with good ammo
Two tap em bitches
M995
I can justify a 20 round mag of m995 if Iβm running my Adar
Second mag has to be rags ammo tho
you got a good adar build?
just spent 8 and a half million to get level 3 stash now i just have to wait
run
did you perish
Yeah
big sad
I usually run this, slap some suppressor if am feeling rich
ph well
taking funny tx-15 in probbaly gonna get head eyes
thought about going night time decide not
what are those nvgs
idk took them from gluhart
It's really cheap to run nvg
stop you're making me want to reset
I have so little ;-;
the good ones
If you run night time
And find glukhart
he usually creeps like apmc
with those nvgs
When I killed him I thought he was a pmc
Because he was slow walking while crouched
wait who?
I got mine since I started playing
@bold kernel i just got flea 2hrs ago
and i rush
i used to main rust
then came to tarkov after 4khours
@placid talon go to the Overall screen and look at statistics
how much is your stash worth
yeah most tarkov players come from Rust/Arma/Squad
I used to play arma a bunch
oh yeh since im big dum dum, anyone with a good woods map? gotta do mechanic quest and its way too big and i get lost easy π
mines 40m rn
how is your kd 0
ah
i have seen around 8 in 40runs
wow sucks
and my mates took the rest
the only tetriz I have ever found was as a scav
I was tryna learn interchange, went into techlight and found a tetriz on the shelf lol
thx dood
how are u only 2.8mil stash at lvl 26
Like I have a friend who's broke asf but had a flir and hex armor and decided he'd give them to me for a modded hk
in the end I took in 2.1 mil worth of loot with me ( 2 big boi vector kits ) and dropped him a full kit ( korund, altyn, vector with 100 rounds of ap 6.3 ) just for the hexgrid
I just want to have fun ngl
don't really care how rich I am
Am I right in thinking killing an AI scav only aggro's the other scav's in proximity
i like the pvp on this game
And not other AI scavs?
but i dont know how to peak or where to hide etc
(As a scav that is ofcourse)
all scavs are agro if you kill one
That is not true, only nearby scavs
In a certain vicinity
wait fr?
Yep
I could've sworn it was all scavs
@bold kernel look dms
Like scavs in old skeleton in customs wont kill you in warehouses
old skeleton?
Or whatever building is next to sniper scav next to ruaf
you mean crackhouse?
lf dues im lvl 12
what
mmmm head eyes through a wall yes
Ouch
name doesnt even show up in the playerbase, cant ask him why hes a bitch
Anyone EU lookin for a bit of Guidance?
Sure, ill help you out
hello i have a question i play in woods a lot as a sniper with svds. my question is what will be the difference if i used svds compare to mp153 with ap20 ammo ?
yes the accuracy and cost of rounds and also its more short range
I have lav level 2
whats a good craft I can do to make money
None rn
there is nothing I can craft at a 5 or 10k profit?
anyone trying to help me im new to the game
Everything's kinda set sailed in terms of cheap crafts, everything that can make you money are ammo crafts and GPU's
And bitcoin
ive been making gunpowder at a like 15k profit
Which one?
blue
Makes sense
if you know how to manipulate price fluctuations there are a lot of profitable crafts
also if you have SBIH done you can make scav junkbox nonstop for mad profit
red gunpow is straight 80k profit
If I remove an offer do I get the fee back
No
You do?
no you do not
you dont
Yeah I was bout to say
fUCK
What happened?
probably listed ammo for too high price lol
I sold some Chops for 369420 roubles but 2 mins later the price went down to 320k so I thought they never selling and removed em
90k lost ;-;
lol never take shit down
that ain't too bad
Considering Chops were 150k earlier, i think that was a good call lol
bruh i accidentally put a gpu up for 17 mil instead of 1.7 and lost like 7 mil lol
anyone want to help me i got the game a while ago but never played.
what do you need help with?
lmao i got head eyes thru a wall and my buddy too by an actually high level player
kinda sad tbh
just wallbangs both of us thru the emercom camp walls

ayo all, some one down to help me with the jager task.. interduction π
woods scares the jeebus out of me and i dont know the map at all
is there a way a scav boss (reshala, probably) could jump down a window from the third floor of three story dorms? spawned in the first floor as a scav, then i ran up and killed another scav right next to him, then he started coming after me and pushing me to the ladder, as i was using a TOZ with the worst pen ammo in the game, he didn't die after the 8 or so shots i fired at him, then he threw a nade at the ladder and i ran to the second floor to protect myself from it, when i came back, he was nowhere to be found. Checked every single open room in the floor thinking he was going to be camping somewhere but no, interestingly enough, there was an open window right behind where i last saw him.
i died by another scav player since i had 3 blacked out limbs and 1 bullet left, so i wasn't able to check for him outside.
Possibly bro, bosses move weirdly
And he could have glitched
βββββ
What helmets can you put both a face shield and headphones on
exfil helmet i think and fast mt
fast
Or, do any helmets have integrated headphones
Damn
Any others?
not sure
They removed all duplicate bag stacks
in your inventory or stash
alright
I saw a helmet that looks like it had a microphone sticking out of it, could any helmets also function as headphones?
Why in the first place you want integrated headphones
FAST MT helmet has headphones you attach to the helmet
