watch yt videos / map to take you their
i do
the map is so confusing
cause when
i use my compass
to go there
its not there
use the sniper rock to determine were you are
ive never used the compass ever
find sniper rock / spine
look for the waypoints
^
*landmarks sorry
find spine and go from their
what exfils does he have
walk up to the car give it the money and wait 1 min
i have factory gate and outskirts
just go outskirts
only outskirts will work
dont waste ur time going to the car
after you get it just run to the big lake
yeah
i always use it no issue but one time 3 groups tried going there at the same time
he has to goto sawmill
run south / sw
they extracted in front of us and some other group then died to chads
no point walking the entire map
o
yeah true
but if he goes near mill he might die
for outskirts
well i dont think he has 3k anynways on him
you can go edge of mill and should be ok, right next to the water
bridge and outskirts are like the same distance from jagers camp
get across where the boat is quickly, have full stamina before you make the run
can someone help me with the introduction quest
yeah i usually do that i just have ptsd of getting jumped by i think 3 mosinmen at once
you just have to work out where you are on woods, jaegers camp is south of sniper rock near the plane crash mate
right next to the plane crash's nose
and if you follow the tailend it leads straight to the bridge which is why i like bridge for helping with introduction
wont get lost
I've had this game a few days now and only completed jaeger quest today after alot of tries
i've had the game for 2 months but i play an hour a day or less on average
cuz i don't play much on weekdays
almost had a heart attack when i stepped on a mine, does it to me everytime
so you spend more time in discord than in-game?
dont we all
basically
xd
yes i just go on discord while studying xd
just reset my acc if anyone new wants to bang out the starter quests with me?
If anyone needs any task help don't hesitate to ask. Currently carrying/helping ppl through their raids! DM preferable!
what do I need to do to unlock 2nd level dealers?
reputation, money spent, and exp level
is it the same for each dealer?
or does therapist lvl 2 require more/less rep and money than lets say prapor
1sec ill check for u
oh ok thank you
ik its level 13
@earnest seal Do shortage and operation aquarius or shortage and sanitary standards and thats 0.16 rep
easiest thing ever xD
and i'm still stuck on prapors second quest
delivery from the past?
oh thats his second one
wanna team up?
NA?
EU 😦
rip
yea oof
lol apparently if you do skier's docs case task you get to 0.2 rep
so thats an easy level 2 dealer aswell
on paper yes, but his rep goes into the negatives after the first few therapist quests
^^
1 BTC: 1 GPU should be a fair rate, right? 
Hey, I'd sell my graphics card for a bitcoin
Not really
whats my best bet of getting 3 salewas in raid
Crafting them at medstation
you can craft them pretty easy
gpu's are inherently more valuable because they can produce infinite bitcoin
ok i dont have hemostatics though where ca ni get thems
Therapist sells haemostat
ll3
they are new so they need 2 screws
Oh it's a barter at lvl 1
u can buy at therapist level 3
yea is there med bags at factory\
i know it's easy to learn but thats what i made the mistake of when i was new
i only played factory
lots of meds at south east woods compound
Factory isnt entirely bad, it's useful for learning pvp and such. Just know you will lose money
I can drop the hemos if you want to cheese it by crafting
my stash is chock full i need to level up therapist for junkbox
sure if you ok with it
you need level 13 too
o yea ik
you should still get the quest done
oh yea
dm me some screenshots i will tell you stuff to sell
k
yup ill tell you what to sell/keep/use
anyone wanna help me with quest?
what quest
hi guys, I got my crafting bench lvl 3, whats a good thing to craft for profit?
red and green gunpowder, probably bp rounds
circuit boards
Circuit board,(green blue craft) red gunpowder, (grenade craft)green powder,
kwon u wanna get married or something
thank you
lol
@jagged arrow airwingmarine is my go to crafting youtuber
he does weekly updates based on current market rates
oh yeah
that staring guy
I've seen some vids he's good but havent seen those that you mentioned
tarkov.guru is my go to for hideout profit, you can toggle different modules and sort by profit per hour and stuff
highly recommend
ok, thanks
sometimes it's a little inaccurate but as long as the input prices are within a few thousand roubles it's fine
how do I get flea market loyalty level 2?
wdym
just by and sell if you mean reputation
lol
you mean the rep?
You mean another slot to trade right?
every 50k sold is like 0.01 I think
^
lol that's trader level 2
thats trader loyalty
ooooh
the flea market also lists the traders offers
beginner here: so i just went into game with 1 random and he killed me
is this normal?
I was losing my shit over this
dont
do that
ever
no
well i figgured after this time
how long does it take for bitcoin to restock, I have a tetriz I wanna get rid of but I can't
lol
every mechanic restock
its 2 tetriz and 2 green batterys
only 100 per reset
they changed it
so as a newbie in this game, what should be the first thing i do?
learn maps
in offline mode
just sell the tetriz
ima kms
anyway to duo queue offline?
learn customs first I'd say, since a lot of the initial quests are there, and the map isn't hard to figure out compared to most others
Will they though
nope
thank you
Are you and your friend under level 5?
yes we are
yes
Now this may be silly,
But you both can go in with only your knives
Since under level 5, healing is free
and what is our aim?
wdym
or bring in PM pistols
whats the barayer
try and kill scavs for their loot
the barter for bitcoin
ok
Then get out with their loadout to start on your quests
they will fix it cause its being botted rn
If both of you have been in the menu for ~20 minutes
ah
You guys should use utilize your scavs
If you know what those are
(Not insulting your intelligence)
Any good crafts for the nutrition unit right now?
whats the best way to utilize our scavs?
Oh okay
we usually just go in and die
If you guys want to try and learn the map Reserve
The scav exfils are extremely easy compared to PMC's
is there a difference between the sniper and the infantry variants of the mosin?
Grab as much loot as you can and dip
Infantry you cannot mount the default scope
You can however mount it using the tri-rail I believe
How much does condensed milk sell to therapist for?
Ballpark ~13.4?
Damn nutrition unit is so ass
Yeah I never have it running
Every other bench I always have running
only thing good is the sugar craft but only if you find the akyonka
also no long crafts for leveling skills
Wait what?
what
No long crafts for leveling skills?
nutrition station has no long crafts
lol
lol
This map may be of more help
I have it running but am only making beef stew or whatever for General Wares
mhm I only had it running for FIR quest items
I also need spark plugs for Car Repair but the craft for that is absolute ass
Any craft for a quest item's worth imo
Even the really bad ledx craft
(It was bad when I crafted anyways)
So
2 bolts
1 screw nut
1 SurvL
1 Pliers
For 2 hours at workbench level 2
Gets you A SINGLE SPARK PLUG
I need 8 of em ;-;
find
Rare af
And I swear I have the worst of luck whenever I find one as a scav I die before extracting no matter how careful I am
@dawn geyser quick question cause you probably know more about this
After I get the intel center L2, I need 10 gpus to get the btc farm up right
I mean as in: I trade my 1 BTC for another guys Not FIR GPU
it holds 10 at level 1 bitcoin farm if that's what you're asking
10 is max
10 25 50
So
Say I finally upgrade my intel center to Level 2
And want to build BTC farm L1
I need 10 gpus right
oh wait
I don't need gpus to build it?
NICE
I understand now nice
if he's dumb enough to do that, take the profit man
Eh it's not dumb
;-; I did that twice today
I suppose that's fair
Traded not fir gpu for 1 btc and 1 cofdm
can somebody run through reserve with me and look for intel folders? i need it for bitcoin farm but i don't have the keys. you can have rest of loot!
Right fuck I also need 3 Intel folders for intel center L2
They're expensive aren't they
;-;
Suicide run customs with a hatchet- crack house
lol
Just hope you get good spawn =p
Spawns at military checkpoint
i have done that. intel never spawns there

cant u just buy intels? Or are you playing hardcore 
I've gotten 3 in 1 go before.
;-;
wish i had that luck
Don't tell me it doesn't spawn there 
Where did you find it
if i had money to buy i would lol
on the floor and shelving
Which room doe
i get into customs office all the time seems like noone ever goes
only safe and 3 computers.
Should i get farming part 4 done?
Anybody like carrying noobs I’m still learning.
just do a money run then buy the intel
I play with anyone no matter how new they are but I won't be "carrying" as i'm not insane at the game either if you wanna play
Computers are low key shit tho. Graphics spawn rate so low it’s usually garbage.
Hell yea I’m down. I’m level 25 and am decent. Just not a god
I only been playing 3ish weeks
Smarter to run night raids with Gamma up or will there be more chances of me dying?
^ I’ve heard about night raids being easier but idk the trueness to it
anyone wanna help me and my friend out? we just got into this game last night and we are struggling lol
I gotchu homie
CPUs are 90k, circuit boards 40k, wires 10k+, flash drives 50k. Lots of money in PCs
Pcs are quite good
Altough i wouldnt be picking up wires
Or capacitors
Unless u dirt poor
beginners-assistance
cpu fans and psus are also good money
lf sugar daddy
Yeah sure i could play with you a bit tmrow and show u the ropes
Yea their not bad. Low hanging fruit. I find PSUs and wires a lot more often than circuit or cpus
40kish apiece. Literally the only shit you can't sell for >9k is HDDs
If you're patient with caps you can
@somber portal begginers doesnt mean poor thi
Tho
U can have level 11 and be at 10 mln
I just started running dorms with keys
Quick loot of both sides then hit the v-ex
does reserve have marked
@crisp nest 3 marked rooms
wtf
I got Rolexs
profitable?
@crisp nest yo hows it goin
good
do you know the name?
oh ok
Oh i dont
But if u search for all 3
1 key will be 700k
While other 2 will be 40k ish
should i just get all
i see yeah im gonna try reserve tmr get some sweet raider gear
ooh
i see
oh i need both?
well i don't have RR so ill just use other extracts
Yeah
Best way for you is to go to hermetic door
And wait for some1 to turn on the alarm
They do it very often to spawn raiders
If i have a group should we split up to turn on the switch and stuff?
oh
So I wait for alarm to go off, kill the raiders that spawn, then extract
For loot yeah
Keep in mind that best way to deal with raiders
Is to use ammo with more than 38 pen
Their thorax have much more hp than pmcs
But head has the exact same value, 35
And most of the time they either have no helmets
Or use level 3/4
Could someone do a quick scav run with me to show me around reserve?
yeah i just downloaded and have no idea what im doing if someone feels like playing
r u NA
So would like a hunter be good for reserve?
north america
yeah I'm in NA
Since most raiders use level 4 helmets and armor anyway
i can show u the ropes tmr
sounds good, thanks!
@smoky wing would bt be enough to 1 tap them or should i just run m80
oh i could run some 7.62 bp maybe hmm
Both will 1 tap head
anything with above like 35 pen should be good, ideally 40
Thorax more like 2 or 3 tap
no point going for body as they are pretty fat
shh
whats reserve?
i dont know
i just got killed by a level 66
that jumped on woods sheds by sturman
and smacked me
ik i'm just considering because i dunno the ranges i'll be at on reserve
3-300m
Okay thanks! will most likely run a vepr or an ak then
i got the game Monday but am still shit, can someone do a scav run on Factory with me?
what region r u
NA
there was a few other guys asking for runs who were new if u scroll up a bit
@bold kernel
but i can run with ya tmr
general max view lines for reserve
ty so much
UN
peacekeeper gives more value but if you need roubles go fence
you will need dollars for gun parts
Dose anyone wantto team up on interchange. I'm lvl 5
if you're good on roubles, PK will give you more rouble value
UN
nah therapist buys it i think
ok im level 5 with only 100k
sell to therapist
she doesn't
wait what
fence and PK buy intel style items
i thought she bought all the "valuables"
so UN gives more value, am I able to exchange them for more roubles?
Or just keep the dollars
ie. flash drives, ssd, diaries
just keep dollars
anyone
if you care about keeping quest items, keep it
you need 3 found in raid
Ok I will keep them, I just found three in a factory safe
wait only two I mistaken the third item for something else
anyone wanna run some? only level 8 trying to grind to 10
yup im na
I can help you a bit tomorrow if youd like?
@echo phoenix I'm down to do some runs in an hour or so, I'ma be up all night and I'm also lvl 8 so let's grind
I want to put attachements on my AR-15 (the default one) but I don't have the work bench equpped. I know certain attachments get dragged and dropped and what's not. Even if the caliber matches sometimes it seems it won't go on. I would appreciate some help
build the workbench
also open the interface up
and check if they are compatible by opening the parts
Anyone willing to help me out, just played my first game ever as a scav n didn’t know how to extracts lol 😪
marked key on customs is insane
Are you NA if so i can play with u tmr otherwise i can hit u up with some good maps
@lethal shard
Hmmm what do you mean you don't know how to extract?
Ya I’m na
Like you don't know the spots?
I don’t know anything lol just played my first game of tarkov ever just now
what map
anyone wanna help me with interchange tasks
@lethal shard
I can play with you in a bit @lethal shard I'll show you stash spots on Interchange and you can have all the loot :)
Relatively safe way to make 50k~ roubles at least every run
And kill a couple scavs
Oh sweet thank you!! That would be awesome!
I can play in about an hour if that's alright with you
Add me as a friend, worst case we can play tomorrow but I should be on still
No problem
can someone help me do jagers quest i neeed to unlock him
Aww this chat is so heartwarming
what 12ga should i run level 8
agreed
U have jaeger?
yes
ammo?
thank you !
7mm buck, magnum buckshot, flechette, or ap-20
They all do different things
With 7mm buck u only aim head
Ur hoping one pellet goes through to the eyes or jaws
Or ears
Magnum ur spraying legs
Flechetter ur aiming head or armor, cuz it only kills armor
thank you ! can I buy magnum from anyone?
or RIP but he cant buy that
And ap-20 thorax or head
i think u mean 8.5mm for the head
Rip is not good
id say chest as its a 2 pellet kill
for head
rip only effect on legs
Why 8.5 mm for head
But you can 2 hit leg xD
No rip is trash
head is 35 dmg
to kill
8.5 is 50 dmg
7mm does 35
thanks for your help!
Vs
gunna run some 7mm in factory
8x50
400
400 damage vs 265 per shot
Which is better
🤔
Ur almost dealing double damage per shot
depends if you're aiming legs or face
6.5 to get that extra pellet
@echo phoenix this is pestily's ammo tier list, used it if you need
oh I thought you were still referring to the 7mm mb lmao
@crisp nest help me money run then i always fucking die
what
????
tf
thoughts on this gun ?
true chad gun
ammo is great, recoil can go decently low, shit fire rate
i mean like if i upgrade yeah
Its ok if u make a p low recoil rpk
i bought it to try the gun out haha
I like it
man was selling 10 rounder for 30 roubles
Ya no 10 rounder on rpk tho
buy a drum
unless u wanna meme with it
doesnt rpk already have shit ergo i thought
their should be a transaction history for the flea
but it's fun to hold down LMB
I dont like wasting 2k a bullet
only drum round ill use is for ppsh
the best gun in the game
So to find keys for machinery key and Dorm Room 206 key I should just kill scavs Anywhere or do I have to kill them at Customs?
machinery key spawns in a dorms room i think
Therss 100% spawns
anywhere also found in jackets
^^ and that
Someone told me yesterday it's rng...
theres a coat in dorms 2nd floor ice cream side just over the barricade if your comming from outside stairs theres a room with a coat that has 100% spawns
for machinery key
Wait Marques said it's rng
well yeah in pockets and jackets ofc but some keys have hard spawns
i didnt know that one had a hard spawn
yeah machinery key has 100% in dorms 2nd floor has a chance to spawn 2 of them lol
So I guess I'll just be a rat until all the people leave dorms then...?
I would
Yea
And for the 206 key just any scav for that one?
is there any chance that 5.45 PS ammo could 1 tap a full health altyn?
0
Dunno
maybe a bug
could he have shot him in the jaw from below the altyn
check his profile
if it looks sus and stuff yk
it was head ears
then he was sus when he killed me
didnt know you could check profiles though
dunno how but you can check the date of creation i think
he clip it?
anything good to do with a NFIR aesa
@true vine I wouldn't dwell on it friend, cheaters exist in every game
Maybe the Altyn had less hp left in it than he thought during the firefight
no, he didnt clip it
after a week and 12mil lost i finaly killed gluhar and got the weapon case
and yeah, I was just wondering because it didnt make sense
not really
shhhhh
could have bought one and saved 4m
just tell urself it was ...
if you are under level 10 eh its ok
Hey there, for those who where were saying about finding and empty server to do somes quest, aren't the server blocked by ping?
above 180 ping is a dc i think
i play at 170 ping with a guy who is EU but i only got dc'ed once
a bit laggy though
Let me give a little bit context
i cant believe you've disrespected warmage hp fmj and mod 0 like this
Some guys told me to find some people, hope in a region that due to the time is very late, and try to do quests together
But aren't the server blocked by ping, like i can't join like the SA server due to it being +150 ping?
5.56
m855
what ammo do you have for what pistols
i have a glock17 and uh
pst gzh is what he has probably
TT pistol
ok pst gzh
use glock with pst gzh
^^
Any lol
oh
hit them in the eyes
Idk what guys are recommending you
i will try
head eyes them or you will die
But dont listem to them
what else is he supposed to use?
You wont kill anybody armoured
Sks?
Adar?
This shit can at least head eyes people
Unlike pst
i have one vss and a sks
use sks with ps ammo
Any face shield on meta helmets
Or even not meta helmets
And glock with pst is useless
hey guys whats the scav spawn time on factory
starts at 15 minutes
i spawn one within 15
he asked for pistol ammo @smoky wing
ok thanks :D
@bold kernel yeah
Not on his level
Would anyone mind running with me im newish.
alright i'll try sticking with the vss and sks
oh?
ADAR then?
Crazy recoil.
Low mag size
Crazy rof
that's like the only other rifle I have
adar is good if you can aim
@crisp nest even worst vss ammo is still super good
But its not about ammo
Its about mags
the pen yeah but isnt it really low damage
Wut?
oh yeah hes level 8 he cant even get any mags
Its like 80 damage
wait what
70*
9x39 @smoky wing ?
"Low pen "
idk i dont use vss
38 lol
ok pen
oh wtf i remembered it being like 30-30 for the worst ammo
pens faceshields
thats actually insane
yeah i got on a scav and the recoil is insane
i should probably sell it since im only level 6
he cant buy vss ammo or mags from lvl one traders can he?
nope
Vss mags
Are prapor level r
4
And are between 30k(barter) to 50k money
Per one mag
But u change it anyway
barrel though
Same
anyone down to help a new player out?
as val is integrally supressed
oh
with what
ah ok
@smoky wing mags too?
or do i need different mags
cuz i have an as val but the mag prices for vss mags 🥶
@crisp nest honestly anything lol more so just helping me get through raids with guns or things to sell..... i keep loosing everything
sure i have to go sleep in like 10 mins but tmr for sure @fallow locust
@crisp nest everything
are u na
Is the same
ok
@crisp nest sounds good, thanks man
time to run as val factory and 1 tap a chad
r u NA
But as i said. Val is expensive to run
@crisp nest yes
i got one from farming
should i sell it?
ah ok ill add u
ok
A good as val build
- mags + ammo
Is around 350k
And the rof is super high, so u need a lot of mags
ill stick to running my 7.62 aks with drums so i can just hold down lmb then
Cuz that ammo is gone in 2s of holding the mouse button
And the best mag for as val
Is only 30 rounds
It hits like a truck tho
Load in SPP and u 2 tap thorax of 90% of players
Cya
can someone help me with search mission task
Does anyone have tips for playing more aggressive? I am a low level with minimal attachments/bullets, but every fight I always instantly get headshot and killed as soon as I peak onto someone.
I did a labs run with a buddy, and a guy was running down the hallway, I peaked out and he was mid sprint and instantly headshot me, not even a spray. Seems to constantly happen
- Low level
- Labs
Bruh
Your buddy is not being helpful at all
Dont play labs if u are new
Waste of money
Unless u have m61 or m995 its not worth to run labs lmai
i ran labs and met 0 raiders
@crisp nest cuz they spawn after certain events
was sad so no profit
/time
yeah i extracted at 2 mins left
was just unlucky
like 0 in the hangar, 0 in the labs building at all
you have to open the hangar/garage dooe
i found 2 dead bodies 1 was pmc
did you
Yeah
sometimes they dont spawn
yeah ik just saying i was unlucky
How much is it to start up Bitcoin from scratch
i'd guess ~10mil for all hideout upgrades needed
Whats the best way to generally level then?
I would say tasks.
Just constantly grind them out?
mhm
I have about 350 total raids but I'm lvl 45.
Depends.
Most of the time I'll be running the "Brown Bomber", I like to call it that way, with a cheap SMG or AR.
Unless stated otherwise by the task.
What level are you Outlaw?
Depends.
I'm pretty sure Pestily has a good levelling guide if I'm not mistaken 🤔
Or maybe that's only to level 10
I have been running various cheap smg's for tasks, but i'm not even sure if paca etc is worth it
I think it's the things you should be going for based on level.
Not sure.
Not paca.
Ill check it out
so players are basically going to ignore armor at this point in the wipe with their fancy bullets
Exactly
i actually like paca a lot
Paca stops almost no bullets.
if you are level 17 wear armor for scavs at least
like a rat rig
they always come back from insurance
Biggest thing holding me back is really money and traders
Paca gets shredded in my experience
in my experience, they'll save you every now and then
You're more likely to die from players.
I didn't say Korund.
options are skip armor, wear paca, or use a rat rig
What exactly is the rat rig?
Gotcha! heard that was good
very good
Definitely worth the price.
So pair that up with like a cheap smg? or like an adar or something maybe?
i'd consider using a vepr hunter, if its in your means
It's mainly preference.
smgs are going to HAVE to go face against players
ammo beats guns
Depends on the person's preference and budget.
but m80 is a very strong round that will defeat reasonable armor
I definitely struggle with headshots it seems
at a very cheap price
personally i love 762 aks but vepr and m80 is insanely good
Don't worry man, I do too even with the experience I have.
if you cant header, you may want to look into the vepr hunter in 762 nato
rfb is good as well
Gotcha! sounds like a plan
i find the rfb almost impossible to use
I just unlocked trader m80 too, isn't the best round but cheaper
but 308 + semi isnt a bad combo
The recoil?
m80 is a good round
Yea, it's 308 so it's better off that way.
but if you like it it shoots great bullets
really fucking bad
lol
😄
is w hat he calls it
So what if I try the same quest a few times, but continue to die, do I just keep spending the money and trying to get the task done or what?
I haven't quite learned the task mentality haha
@echo phoenix still down to run some?
honestly i just put my nose to the grindstone and push thru until i tilt
Up to you man.
There's always more than just tasks.
but theres no winning or losing tarkov
Very true
I need to learn money runs, thats 50% of my problem haha
Reserve and interchange?
Main 3 I run are Shoreline, Interchange, and Reserve.
interchange and reserve lean hatchet running for the big loot
Please don't hatchet run.
Gotcha! I know shoreline well but I hate interchange haha, i'm still learning reserve
That just ruins the fun.
yeah please dont
but you can also cache run shoreline, woods, customs, and interchange for caches
Nah nah I don't
im not saying he should
