beginners-assistance

[strong aspen]

I became what I once swore to destroy

[proven saddle]

dignity? from a tarkov player? no such thing

[strong aspen]

Ill give you that

I lost it when I first started the game

My first raid was on woods and I died to landmines

[proven saddle]

you lost it way before that

you lost it when you thought about buying it

[strong aspen]

I blame the YouTubers

they made it look fun and cool

Now Im constantly contemplating starting a new life because of this game

[proven saddle]

in reality its just pain and stockholm syndrome

[strong aspen]

Thinking about playing Tarkov>playing Tarkov

[proven saddle]

i literally dont play anything else rn

i need help

[strong aspen]

Same lol

I could be enjoying my day and think to myself "Yo im gonna get on Tarkov and just start melting everyone I see"

Then I get my ass cheeks divided by a chad with an Mp7 as soon as I get in a raid

[proven saddle]

yeah but then you get a shit gun with shit ammo and tap some eyes and get a slick

[bold kernel]

guys

Killed my first pc

pmc

[strong aspen]

WWW

[bold kernel]

he was lvl 44

i was lvl 4

[strong aspen]

Massive dub bossman

[bold kernel]

What a noob

[strong aspen]

You're doing better than me

[bold kernel]

he still killed me in the end tho cuz i bled out

[strong aspen]

It took me until level 6 to even shoot a pmc

[bold kernel]

but i got his dog tag

lol yeah he started the fight

[proven saddle]

i kept my first pmc dogtag as a trophy

it was one of my friends....

[bold kernel]

Ok gtg im deployin

[strong aspen]

Love to see it

[bold kernel]

Does more velocity = more damage?

[proven saddle]

no

it means the bullet flies straight for longer

and faster

[elder epoch]

Rock

[lime yacht]

Papers

[strong aspen]

If I get shot and the bullet takes my body armor's health to 0, will it penetrate or still act as if it was absorbed

[proven saddle]

smaller chance itll stop

the lower the durability the higher the chance itll pen

[strong aspen]

Ohhhhhh

[proven saddle]

so technically its possible yes

[fading violet]

if it's 0 the body armor doesn't do anything

every bullet will pen if it's at 0

[proven saddle]

i think he meant the bullet that gets it to 0

[fallen cargo]

if your boddy aremer has 0/50or 0/30.... it is like wairing a paper bag

[strong aspen]

Im really starting to get the hang of PvP now I think

I clip just about every death to find out what I do wrong

[wicked marsh]

are empty fuel tanks refillable?

[fallen cargo]

most of the time you died cus of somting happening 20sec befor you died

[strong aspen]

Last guy killed me while I had RIP 9x19mm because I kept aiming for his legs even though he had no body armor

[fallen cargo]

no nbot refillebel

[strong aspen]

So I could have just hit him in the chest once and ended it

[fallen cargo]

if you have rip ammo no

[strong aspen]

This time I killed a guy because I looked at his chest before shooting his legs

Dropped him in 2 shots

[wicked marsh]

so i just sell it to a dealer? i assumed it would be destroyed if it wasnt refillable

[strong aspen]

I feel good

[fallen cargo]

it takes 12/15bullitsq to the same leg to kil som1 whit rip ammoi

you can make a maggcas or a grenade case if you want in lavontotry lvl

[wicked marsh]

oh ok word, ty

[fallen cargo]

btw rip ammo is only good on verry fast smg and preferd on like a scave boss that you want the armer of (killa gluhark) and probly the new bos for facktory

[strong aspen]

Is there a way to get any more than a 3-round internal mag for the Ks-23

[wicked marsh]

i think that shotgun is extremely limited in customization

btw

🙂

[fading violet]

You can't really mod a ks23 at all

[jolly lily]

these are the keys i have whats some good ones that aren't to expensive to buy

[shell sable]

no you cant

[shell sable]

226 shouldnt be that expensive

[bold kernel]

bro i didn't know there was new reload animations if you level up your gun mastery

please someone help me im lvl 4 and ive legit lost all my money

[zealous fjord]

hi i am brand new to the gmae

game

[white cape]

@bold kernel Use your scav to make some money, and get gear to run on your PMC

[zealous fjord]

IM so lost i dont know where to get outta the map

[silver hornet]

load into an offline raid, with a map pulled up on your phone or 2nd monitor

[zealous fjord]

ok thank you

[cunning dragon]

Last offline raid I did in customs I found THREE marked keys on scavs... never again

[white cape]

never check loot when on offline mode. It will only bring you pain.

[main crag]

My hideout is crafting with the generator off. I jst need to start the crafting with it on then turn it off

[halcyon willow]

heya quick question about ragman

[main crag]

Is that normal?

[halcyon willow]

online most people say the best way to get him ll2 is to buy helmets from him then sell them back

[cunning dragon]

yeah it will just much slower

[halcyon willow]

but my ragman won't buy his helmets back

[main crag]

Better than paying 200k for exp fuel

[cunning dragon]

whats a good way to get peacekeeper spend level up?

[halcyon willow]

buy SSD's on the flea and sell them to him

311$ each

[cunning dragon]

yeah for sure especially if it's something that will just go overnight

[cunning dragon]

ok so better than diary? I notice some go for cheaper than the dollar to ruble exchange rate

[main crag]

speaking of flea. What are good things to buy on flea and resell on flea for profit

even if its not much profit

[halcyon willow]

there's a few items that do well yeah, I found SSD to be best atm

[main crag]

Ill take 1 or 2 k here and there

Im early on. Just started playing again. Im broke. only have 120k

[cunning dragon]

only thing is stuff on flea you can't sell back on flea

loses fir status

[shy coral]

before selling to fleas check how much trader would take

[bold kernel]

ssh-68 or 6b47

[silver hornet]

nothing, because you can't buy items on the flea market, and then flip them back onto the market

[main crag]

I thought you could. I saw a vid of a lady reselling cat figurines

[silver hornet]

nope, not anymore

you haven't been able to do that since 12.6

which was last May

[main crag]

EFT Devs just love to make this game less fun and more buggy. Tarkov really has potential to be one of the best games. Instead its highly mediocre. Just one mans opinion though

[shy coral]

well it's hardcore

[main crag]

Thats a good thing

[shy coral]

so you have to have many rules

if you want to play run and gun go cod

[main crag]

Thats not the problem

[silver hornet]

lol you can do that in Tarkov too

[shy coral]

what's the prob?

[silver hornet]

flipping items just made everything more expensive

[shy coral]

well if you have high endurance

[silver hornet]

then again with BSG encouraging inflation with their refusal to fix BTC and the BTC farm that's a moot point

[shy coral]

and you need to know enemy's loc too

in cod you die with no consequences

[main crag]

Effects, audio, economy, servers, the list goes on

[shy coral]

well it's "beta" anyway

if you want a fixed tarkov wait for 3 years for the game to be full released

[cunning dragon]

they cant mess with btc too much mid wipe but I can see a huge nerf coming post wipe

[main crag]

Yeah but one can only use that excuse for so many years lol

I will still continue to play though

[shy coral]

no game have ever tried to be as realistic as tarkov

[cunning dragon]

even when it's released there will still be stuff to tweak

[main crag]

I wouldnt say that

[shy coral]

yep meta and shit

[silver hornet]

tarkov
realism

lol

is Tarkov highly immersive? yeah

realistic?

[shy coral]

well they try too

[main crag]

Euro truck simulator is more realistic lol

[silver hornet]

no

[shy coral]

well tarkov can give you the fear of dying

[silver hornet]

mm yes let me rub some balm on my nose, hop off of a 3 story roof top, dump a 60 round magazine out of my M4 into a squad of players, and walk off perfectly A-ok as long as I apply some clip-clip snip-snip to my legs

[sacred socket]

can somebody explain the ricochet percentage on ammo?

[shy coral]

not like any other game where you can just match up again with the same gear

[sacred socket]

is higher worse?

[main crag]

ARMA 1 and 2

[shy coral]

no

it's better

wait

on ammo

it's worse

[sacred socket]

i looked at five seven ammo

[silver hornet]

oh another good point for Tarkov's "realism"

[cunning dragon]

I've played all the Armas extensively, imo Tarkov is far better... Arma is a whole different thing

[sacred socket]

the slow moving white tip has less %

while the red tip has 60%

[main crag]

Microsoft flight, plenty of more realistic games. Tarkov is realistic though no denying,

[cunning dragon]

bruh, chess is more realistic

[shy coral]

arma is an older game

[silver hornet]

in Tarkov, an Altyn is GOST 5 which is rated for rifle rounds

in real life, an Altyn can't even stop 5.45 PS through an 8" barrel and standard 9mm FMJ will smash the visor to pieces

[shy coral]

your life is more realistic

[cunning dragon]

I need to get the DLC though...

[shy coral]

tarkov is a game and leans a bit into realism

[silver hornet]

and here we are, moving the goalposts

[main crag]

Sometimes life is stranger than fiction. I wish my life had free DLC

[silver hornet]

was wondering how long that would take

[shy coral]

while you see in tarkov 855 ammo is shit while irl it's the standart ammo the army use

and 995 is the equivalent of piercing a tank

[main crag]

What is the OFC shell for?

[shy coral]

quest

[shy coral]

crafting

[main crag]

ofz

[cunning dragon]

If the game was super realistic you'd never see who killed you... well pretty much never. And it'd nearly always be 1 shot.

[shy coral]

yea crafting 995

and quest

[silver hornet]

The US Army uses M855A1 to get more efficiency out of 5.56x45 in shorter barrels like the M4A1's 13.5" barrel

M855 isn't standard anymore

[main crag]

And armor and helmets would work

[shy coral]

oh ok

my country still uses 855

[silver hornet]

helmets are way more powerful in Tarkov than they are in real life

this is by design

[main crag]

There is armor that can take ap rounds

[shy coral]

yep and they should change armor classes to real life like

[silver hornet]

like I said earlier; in Tarkov, an Altyn will stop rifle rounds, but irl it can't even stop 5.45 PS in an 8" barrel

[shy coral]

not like lv6 armor

like maybe 1a,1,2a,2,3a,3

[silver hornet]

Armor rework is planned™

[main crag]

Thus unrealistic

[shy coral]

well it's just plate changing

[silver hornet]

also, what do you mean? the armor system in Tarkov mirror's the Russian GOST armor system.

[shy coral]

oh

ok

i only knew of the standart armor classing

[main crag]

No german

[silver hornet]

no dude, it's GOST lol

[shy coral]

gost is russia

[silver hornet]

Germany's armor standards is TR armor standard, which is SK L, SK 1, SK 2, SK 3, and SK 4

[shy coral]

oh yea tarkov still haven't added 22 long rifle

[main crag]

Or cincinnati

[shy coral]

but i guess 22 long rifle is shit

[main crag]

jk

[silver hornet]

Russia's is GOST 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5a, 6, and 6a

[main crag]

I live close to nati, The Bengals suck and the reds do to

[shy coral]

that's pre-2017

[silver hornet]

looking at it now, you are correct

[shy coral]

oh tarkov is pre-2017

[silver hornet]

Tarkov is using the pre-2017 standards, yes

[shy coral]

they will add 5a and 6a later i guess

[main crag]

I think the sapphire 5700xt pulse is an excellent card when paired with the r5 3600 and high frequency ram

[shy coral]

the 3600x better

[main crag]

Yeah but not worth the extra money. Might as well buy a 5900

[shy coral]

that yes

[silver hornet]

I'm looking to upgrade my rig when I graduate tbh

[shy coral]

college?

[silver hornet]

High school

I graduate in 2 months lul

[shy coral]

oh i thought college

[main crag]

Id rather have a 5900x than a 5950

[shy coral]

i'm in my first year of college

almost 2nd year

[main crag]

Congrats man!

[silver hornet]

Can't wait lol

[shy coral]

yea that moment when you're still not in college

huh i love my lively self

[main crag]

Get a social work degree. A masters is so useful in social work. So many job options and great pay at masters level

[silver hornet]

I have an RX 580 2GB, a Ryzen 3 2200G, and 16GB DDR4 RAM; looking to get more RAM atm but I'm not quite sure what I'll upgrade my card and processor

I'm going to a trade school, not college

[shy coral]

now i'm depressed af with all these works piling up

[shy coral]

trade school ok

[main crag]

8g version serves you well

[silver hornet]

or getting an apprenticeship, not sure yet

[shy coral]

i guess you're a day trader

for now

[silver hornet]

vocational school, not day trading

[main crag]

Im telling you, social work has a huge career umbrella

[shy coral]

oh ok

[main crag]

But do what makes u happy

[shy coral]

i dont think he's into social shit

[main crag]

Happiness is better than money

[silver hornet]

making shit and getting paid to do it makes me happy

win-win

[shy coral]

making what kinda shit

oh and you get more freedom after highschool

[silver hornet]

I'm not sure yet

[main crag]

I am a double makor and college is worth it. Dont tell people otherwise. The only exception is entreprenurship

[shy coral]

major*

[main crag]

Sorry my typing sucks today. I drank too many beers

[shy coral]

stop being a drunkhead

i tried beer once and hated it

[main crag]

Im not. Im celebrating

I rarely drink

[shy coral]

celebrating what

[main crag]

New job

[shy coral]

nice

[main crag]

Im a counselor. Been one for 5 years

[shy coral]

i like wine and shit but beer's not for me

[main crag]

Its not the best pay but it makes me happy. But being a supervisor you can make bank

[shy coral]

supervisor is neat

[main crag]

You need an LICDC-CS licensure though. Masters level

[shy coral]

oh

[main crag]

I will take the test soon

Im a cdca 2 at the moment

[shy coral]

gl

[main crag]

But with my experience I make good money without a licensure. CDCA is a certification

Change of subject

How do you get r lee ermy voice on tarkov

[shy coral]

rlee?

wdym

[main crag]

The drill instructor from full metal jacket

He says what the f$%^ is that

You know how you can mumble and talk in tarkov

I thought you only had 3 voice options

[shy coral]

double press f1

[glass whale]

how muvh are labs keycards worth ?

[main crag]

Ok. Another question. Best place to find fuel?

[shy coral]

400k

[shy coral]

interchange

oli

[main crag]

area?

k

[glass whale]

shame im only level 4:((

[shy coral]

save till lvl10

[main crag]

too bad it isnt lvl 5 for flea anymore

[glass whale]

ok how can i get xp quickly?

[shy coral]

task

[main crag]

Quests and killing

Kill scavs.

Its easier

[glass whale]

ok whats the best map to do that on

[median ledge]

So I got the game yesterday and understand most of what I need to do but how do I get the tape measure for security in my hideout

[main crag]

Also looting

[white cape]

the map you know best

[main crag]

Customs and reserve. But reserve is more difficult

Lots of chads

[white cape]

@median ledge check tool boxes or shelves for tape measures

[median ledge]

Okay can I also get them from fence

[white cape]

if he has them, yes

[median ledge]

Okay thank you 🙏

[white cape]

but fence's inventory is player driven, so he will only have it if a player sells it to him

[shy coral]

wait gen4 assault kit

protect all hand right

not only the upper

[main crag]

You can potentially get ahead buying from fence, like the gunsmith quests

[visual crystal]

@shy coral yes any armor that says it protects arms means that it will protect your entire arm

[shy coral]

not until armor rework

[main crag]

Most beneficial crafting in level 1 hideout? It used to be salewa but its more espensive to craft now

I need to make money

sry wrong channel

[shy coral]

workbnch

craft grenades

[visual crystal]

what? if you wear gen4 assault or a zabralo if you get shot anywhere in the arm be it your fingers or your shoulder the armor will take damage and stop the round if it is higher tier than the ammo @shy coral

[shy coral]

nono they will do an armor rework where the cutout of the armor is not counted as armor hitbox

[visual crystal]

yes

eventually in the future

[shy coral]

i just realized 12.7x55 is .50 cal

[visual crystal]

the ash 12 hurts like hell yeah XD

the mounted MGs are 12.7x108mm

[smoky wing]

Yeah mounted mg has the best bullet jn the game

1 taps any thorax thru any armor

[shy coral]

Mosin with mag, good or bad?

[visual crystal]

its alot of commitment all just to use a mag

[carmine bolt]

very new but kinda know what im doing looking to do stash runs or cash runs

[polar harness]

what a damn big ass armor this dude had for a dude with an mp133

[halcyon willow]

JUST YOINKED A 3 MAN in dorms lets goo they are so juicy

sks powaaaa

[toxic herald]

SKS is cool

[halcyon willow]

ive been using it in inv but thats kind of a pain

nvm its n

noice

[halcyon willow]

it really is

plz pray for no exfil campers

nice I just go dc'd

in dorms

and 2 vectors

[royal bloom]

Hey guys, what is the best 9x19 ammuniton?

[halcyon willow]

AP 6.3

[royal bloom]

ty

[halcyon willow]

np!

[vernal fiber]

7n31, although its overpriced

ap 6.3 is second best, but better value, however considering its pen its not that great

[royal bloom]

I wanted to try out the new STM-9 gun

[halcyon willow]

shit my bad this guy is correct, was mixing up their pen values

[royal bloom]

so I didn't really know what ammo to load

[vernal fiber]

7n31 if you have the money, ap 6.3 if not (won't be very good though)

stm is cool but unfortunately its not good bcs semi 9mm :/

[carmine bolt]

who sells mags for mosins

[junior rose]

No one, you either gotta find em on the flea market or buy a whole new mosin

How did you even manage to lose an integrated mag

[royal bloom]

Guys I just bough 100 bullets from the flea market for like 150k and they did not appear in my inventory??????

[halcyon willow]

they will be in your stash for sure mate

filter by ammo if you can't see them right away

[royal bloom]

okay thanks I got really really scared for a second

[bold kernel]

You might not have got them unless the money is gone as EFT changed it so when the offer is bought it doesn’t pop up, it just shows red text in the bottom right

[halcyon willow]

the flea got your back boi

https://tenor.com/view/bugs-bug-insects-cockroaches-music-gif-5045519

[bold kernel]

What ammo did you buy for 150k

[royal bloom]

AP 6.3

[halcyon willow]

he was asking about 7n31 so most likely that

or yupp, nice nice

[bold kernel]

Oooof 150k on AP

[royal bloom]

and the money did got counted away

[halcyon willow]

ah yeah with ammo you generally should buy one or two down the list cause people always buying lots of it

[royal bloom]

well Im a verry verry big fan of Semi automatic weapons and the new STM-9 got my atention 😄 So im gearing up

[bold kernel]

Semi auto, I love the SR-25 try it if you haven’t, but a vudu and you’re killin

Just don’t run M80

[royal bloom]

SR-25 you say

1 second

oof pricy

but I'll give it a shot

thanks

what ammo should I run on it?

[bold kernel]

M61 or 2

It’s a bit pricey tho

[royal bloom]

Noticed xD

aye well high risk high reward

thanks!

[bold kernel]

NP man

Have a good raid

[royal bloom]

Thanks alot!

[dry path]

BRUUU

[fast tinsel]

anyone down to do customs?

[cunning cradle]

Is the Lab Keycard worth selling, or should I keep it?

[gusty heron]

[woven wigeon]

[gusty heron]

[bold kernel]

Cobra OP

[gusty heron]

fr

[bold kernel]

EoTech > PK-06

[gusty heron]

i hate holos

so clunky

[bold kernel]

That’s your opinion

But its wrong

No jk

Ik what you mean

[gusty heron]

fair enough lol

[bold kernel]

I just prefer them to PKs

Idk why

I’m sure almost everyone in the server will disagree with me

[gusty heron]

yes

pk looks sexy

[bold kernel]

But if you use the PK you gotta use the 3 lines + dot

[gusty heron]

agreed

[bold kernel]

Valday or Vudu

[gusty heron]

wdym

[bold kernel]

The long range scopes

Which do you prefer

[gusty heron]

vudu but only because thats the only one ive used lol

[bold kernel]

Oh you’re like full new?

[gusty heron]

lvl 12

first wipe

[bold kernel]

How you finding the game

Do you like getting 1 tapped by 7mm buckshot

[gusty heron]

good. i prefer it to rust, ark etc. i stay away from shotgun scavs xd

but seriously shotgun scavs kill me the most

[bold kernel]

Me too

What maps your fave?

[gusty heron]

woods or interchange

i grew to like woods after being forced to play it for so many quests

[dry path]

@gusty heron thanks for the advice man

im level 9 right now

i cant wait to hit 10

[shy coral]

you get all excited to get lv10 until you see market price

[halcyon willow]

nah flea is awesome

[shy coral]

sometimes

[halcyon willow]

you can actually buy real ammo

[shy coral]

real ammo like 855a1 in flea is overpriced

the price is almost like 995

[halcyon willow]

dude what are you saying rn lol dude is just saying he's looking forward to flea

[gusty heron]

i was excited because i stockpiled a bunch of shit to sell i went from like 800k to 1.5 mil ehen i hit 10

[halcyon willow]

obs not gonna be loading up on 995 at level 11 ffs

🤣

[shy coral]

well

im just sayin ya know

best bet at flea is 856a1

not so overpriced

[gusty heron]

i just want some clothes man ragman hiding that shit away at high ass levels

[bold kernel]

Woods 😭

[pure frost]

my stash upgrade is on 0 seconds left but its not upgrading

oops wrong chat.

[dim raptor]

how to extract from woods with no rubles and only 1 of the exfils is pmc only :\ which requires 3000

[celest sage]

Outskirts, UN Roadblock, Northern UN roadblock for pmc

[dim raptor]

yeah but can't you only use the ones it lists for you?

[celest sage]

You’ll always have one of those three for pmc

[dim raptor]

yes but i have bridge which requires 3000 and the others require a friendly scav

so i'm basically screwed?

[celest sage]

That’s how the extracts work, like on customs you’ll always either have crossroads or zb

[celest sage]

No you can go to outskirts or one of the roadblocks

Whichever one you have

[dim raptor]

but they require a friendly scav to extract

[celest sage]

No they don’t

You’re thinking of factory gate

[dim raptor]

but they are not listed you get 4 that you are allowed to extract from

[celest sage]

What 4 do you have

Factory gate, bridge, and what

[dim raptor]

z014, factory, outskirts and brdige

[celest sage]

So go to outskirts

[dim raptor]

it says you require a friendly scav

[celest sage]

It doesn’t

Factory requires a friendly scav

[rustic plank]

Yeah outskirts should let you leave

Should be a truck surrounded by trees at the end of the road

Watch for scavs cause you’ll walk right by scav house

[dim raptor]

Okay thanks

[serene reef]

z014 needs to be active and you need the key

factory door needs one scav player and one pmc

[chrome sonnet]

anyone want to help me with customs im lvl 6 bought game yesterday

[signal nimbus]

some one looking to help a new player

[polar schooner]

same, ima level 6 need help doing some quests dm me

[bold kernel]

can someone help me finish 2 quests in one raid? Both quests are on customs

Hi guys for the gunsmith level 5

How do you get effective range at 2000 meters?

Its the DVL

[silver hornet]

you need the nightforce ATACR scope

[bold kernel]

I have that one

your sighting range is 2000

[silver hornet]

you meet all of the requirements, you need to restart your game

[ornate steppe]

is it bad that I enjoy scav more than pmc

[proven saddle]

a bit yeah

[strong barn]

I think beginners should all scav woods and more people would find the factory gate getting used

like an unspoken rule

[proven saddle]

only did it once

[strong barn]

woods is the only map i havnt done it on :(

[proven saddle]

i died and joined the same rain with my scav and extracted with my friend

[bold kernel]

It still does not allow me to complete the quest even after a reboot

weird

[proven saddle]

unload the gun

[strong barn]

no mag maybe could work?

is there a bullet in the chamber?

[proven saddle]

take tha mag out

and the bullet in the chamber if there is one

[silver hornet]

oh yeah, do that @bold kernel take the mag out

[strong barn]

those quests always ended in some sillyness like that 😂

[bold kernel]

Thanks!

Omg it was the mag haha

[uncut siren]

ayo cache runs on interchange acc decent?

[silver hornet]

take out the mag
fold the stock
usually one of those two

[cosmic tinsel]

theres a reason cache runs are our go to recommendation for consistently farming money without hatching 😄

[celest sage]

Mosin inf vs mosin inf carbine?

[cosmic tinsel]

believe the only difference is barrel length

[celest sage]

Which do you prefer

[cosmic tinsel]

(and the stat changes that come w that)

[celest sage]

I’m doing factory runs

[uncut siren]

ignore the labs card I spawned with on a scav run

[cosmic tinsel]

i have no strong feelings about it

whichevers cheapest lol

[final veldt]

Who should I sell the SAS drive to?

[proven saddle]

peacekeeper

[uncut siren]

imagine exit camping scav camp

[lyric fulcrum]

Can anyone help me out

[uncut siren]

with?

[lyric fulcrum]

I got the game 2 days ago and Ill shoot people with an entire mag and it feels like it does 0 damage

[uncut siren]

get better ammo

[lyric fulcrum]

and ill get one tapped with all the max armour I can buy

[cosmic tinsel]

https://escapefromtarkov.gamepedia.com/Ballistics

[proven saddle]

what ammo u using?

[cosmic tinsel]

so a ton of ammo basically doesnt go through body armor

you've gotta go head

[final veldt]

I see

[lyric fulcrum]

Im not sure I just buy it from prapor

Or mechanic

[proven saddle]

some of it doesnt make it through skin dude

[lyric fulcrum]

Damn

[cosmic tinsel]

thats a wee bit dramatic eh

toz rounds, maybe

[serene reef]

this ^

also hello ya all :D

[cosmic tinsel]

morning (or whatever time it is there)

[serene reef]

4pm x')

good afternoon!

[cosmic tinsel]

afternoon

[lyric fulcrum]

Thank you guys

[serene reef]

Do YoU WaNT a cuP oF tEA dArLinG?

[cosmic tinsel]

try shooting 7.62 PS if you're under level 10, or buying 5.45 BT if you have flea market

neither bullet is great but it mostly wont mag dump for 0 dmg like 545 PS

[proven saddle]

7.62x39 ps/bp (bp better)
5.45x39 bt/bs/igolnik (bs and igonlink better)
5.56x45 M856A1/M855A1/M995 (m995 is best but expesive af)
9x19 Pst Gzh/AP 6.3/7n31 (7n is best)

[lyric fulcrum]

Im level 8 so I dont think I have it unlocked yet but alright thank you

[proven saddle]

up to level 10 i exclusively used sks with ps ammo

lol

[uncut siren]

just use a tox and kill scavs

toz***

[proven saddle]

toz? oh ill show you a toz alright

[lyric fulcrum]

Is factory or customs better for just trying to get money and exfil?

[proven saddle]

neither

[crimson pilot]

Interchange exterior stash run

Or woods stash runs too but it's easy to get lost if you don't know map

IC scav stash run is decent too so you can start with that

[serene reef]

woods is way more fun

when it comes to the map itself

[proven saddle]

its fun once you know the map

[serene reef]

because most people are rather lost

[lyric fulcrum]

I only know customs and factory but ill look up maps

[proven saddle]

not fun when you run into a minefield tho

[serene reef]

yup

[crimson pilot]

Yeah but I know couple guys who got lost there. I got it very fast but some people struggle

[serene reef]

Well if you dont know how to use a map

or a compass xd

[proven saddle]

or look for a giant ass rock..

[crimson pilot]

Interchange exterior is very linear. Just don't go inside as new guy

[uncut siren]

wtf is that

[crimson pilot]

Stay outside and loot hidden stashes and exfill

[lyric fulcrum]

Yeah I made that mistake with my brother literally lasted about 30 seconds

[proven saddle]

THE gun

[lyric fulcrum]

So if im going into interchange and just looting the outside should I bring a bag or no

[proven saddle]

yes

[serene reef]

yes

[lyric fulcrum]

and thank you for helping me out lmfao this game is insanely complex

[serene reef]

to woods or intercahnge always bring a bag

[proven saddle]

always bring a bag regardless

[serene reef]

and if you can have sometinh like tarkov market open so you can spend like 1min to sort your inv and know what is valuable or not

[proven saddle]

its not expensive and you never know

[serene reef]

besides for an example you often find a fuel tank

on woods

the blue one

[final veldt]

This game is very complex

[serene reef]

it goes for 300k

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[proven saddle]

it seems like that until you actually start getting it and it becomes pretty damn simple in concept

simple not easy

[lyric fulcrum]

yeah but ive died so much I literally dont have much money back and not alot of guns so im scared if I go onto interchange I literally wont be able to afford to eat

I really enjoy the game

[final veldt]

Do a couple scav runs on a map you know, thats what I do and I have a bunch of guns now

[lyric fulcrum]

Its just hard when dude are dressed like tachanka and Ive got a Makarov

[proven saddle]

not many people use altyins honestly

[craggy sapphire]

Wtf dude

[final veldt]

Only 2 of my guns I haven't gotten from raids

[craggy sapphire]

I chambered a bullet in my sks

And it didin't shoot

[cosmic tinsel]

customs better outta the two

[craggy sapphire]

wtf dude

[cosmic tinsel]

ha was it 366

[craggy sapphire]

I got no more money

[lyric fulcrum]

Thank you guys and I should use the wiki for knowing whats valuable and I feel you

[craggy sapphire]

No

IT was bp

[proven saddle]

i swear i remember you had every keycard for labs

[craggy sapphire]

Nah

I have violet black and yellow

Some guy dropped all of em to me

[proven saddle]

oh lol

[cosmic tinsel]

im only missing red now 😄 spent 40m on blue this am

[lyric fulcrum]

If I go to LFG chat will someone que up with me cause I wont lie im trash

[proven saddle]

[proven saddle]

i mean youll have the money back in like 3 weeks

Fuck the punisher part 3

fuck it wholeheartedly

[cosmic tinsel]

just boring lol

[proven saddle]

its hard af

when all you got is a shitty aks against meta hks and slicks

[cosmic tinsel]

go suppressed keep a low profile stay on the move and never stay somewhere a scav shoots unsuppressed at you for more than like, 30 seconds

you wanna be an absolute ghost

[proven saddle]

hated customs before, now i hate it even more

[cosmic tinsel]

thats fair

i quite like customs so probably rubbed me the wrong way less

[proven saddle]

dont get me wrong its a lotta fun

but thats it

[cosmic tinsel]

😄

[proven saddle]

just a bigger factory

[silver hornet]

A bigger factory? you mean 12.11?

lol

[proven saddle]

true

cant wait

sledgehammer boss im all about that

hide in a bush for 10 mins and then go dorms

should be pretty quiet by then

[craggy sapphire]

This is so hard

I need to earn xp

[uncut siren]

[ripe carbon]

Nothing was in there lol

[lusty glacier]

[craggy sapphire]

I stood still in a bush for two seconds to check discord

And i got sniped immediatly

[cosmic tinsel]

i have like 6 deaths from typing here

[craggy sapphire]

lol

Wich room is it that has a red card spawn but needs no key?

[gloomy glade]

any know why im getting hard kicked form servers when my ping isnt even high???

[craggy sapphire]

Is it the east wing 322?

[gloomy glade]

like i just got kicked because i had 60 ping full kit lost

[trail notch]

New to the game was hoping if someone can help me 🙂

[lusty blade]

hey im pretty new to tarkov. got alot of experiance in this style of game though. looking for some help getting started

[cosmic tinsel]

i think down in the basement gym area

[craggy sapphire]

I mean the room

With the bloody table

[random hare]

Do you lose ammo in the gun range?

[craggy sapphire]

No

[hybrid bronze]

yo dose i just unlocked the flea market and sold like a sv-98 and it says i sold it and i go to claim it to get and i see the sniper is what i get like where the money

[random hare]

thanks

[craggy sapphire]

Omg

My friend just tagged me in the general chat and said i rape kids

[hexed void]

where would i look to team up with someone else on this server? i need a friend who plays tarkov because the person i first started playing with cant play much anymore and i suck at this game

[craggy sapphire]

Just got sniped while looking at the picture

[cosmic tinsel]

people group up outta this channel periodically. you can also jump into an LFG channel and let whoever know what you're tryin to do

if you dont have luck you can sign up for a sherpa at sherpahub

!sherpahub

ok tyvm

[little fulcrum]

@hexed void if you need help with quests or basic stuff lemme know, could help you out a little if u are on EU

[fossil tide]

Ideas how to get cowboy hats for ragman quest?

I've been killing scavs in factory for couple days, none had them

[cosmic tinsel]

just gotta play rng unfortunately

id focus on other quests and collect em as they come

[fossil tide]

https://tenor.com/view/ok-okay-awkward-smile-gif-5307535

[little fulcrum]

@fossil tide i've got mine mostly on interchange stashes + cloth shops has on mannequins

[random ridge]

yellow card?

[visual leaf]

So since when was SNB considered bad?

[serene reef]

ak-105? good? bad?
lf gun 5.45x39

[little fulcrum]

@visual leaf 2nd best, 7N37 better but i cant consider SNB bad

[shy coral]

ak-74m or n better

huhuhu can't wait for arena to be released

[trail notch]

The Sherpa hub is dead/inactive

[little fulcrum]

@serene reef matter's on your bullet kinda, as far its 7N39, BS or BT ammo i'd say its okay, AK74-M is better as someone said already

[silver hornet]

anyone who tells you that doesn't know what they're talking about. There's no reason to run 7N37 because SNB is cheaper than it, will still pen class 6 armor just as easily, and it's faster than 7N37.

[lusty glacier]

i hate this

i killed him in dorms, went to loot him, and died to a minion who was outside the window.. and im on the 2nd floor wtf

[cosmic tinsel]

well you can at least get it on scav runs now

[lusty glacier]

how?

[cosmic tinsel]

same way as before

just go look for reshala and try and pull the TT

no risk

[lusty glacier]

oh

[cosmic tinsel]

definitely stinks, but killing reshala and getting the TT are hard in different ways

[lusty glacier]

if i dont spawn in the last 10 minutes lol

[cosmic tinsel]

ha, you'd be surprised

every now and then you find 2-3 dead pmcs and a reshala kicking around still

hes no free kill 😄

[lusty glacier]

this was such a scary clip

i walked into dorms and saw 3 of them crouching in the kitchen room

[celest sage]

Yep

[cosmic edge]

anyone okay with teaming up with a newbie?

[uncut siren]

hmu later if you want to learn interchange caches

[brave wagon]

Not really.

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah that was news to me

knew it took a few days sometimes

but felt like people were talkin about having sherpas in the past... weekend

[crisp nest]

thats the best way

[cosmic tinsel]

fastest way for sure

but it was makin me crazy so i did other stuff and coincidentally looted scavs

[crisp nest]

yeah same

i get a lot on my scav runs

@fossil tide oh yeah you can get them from mannequins on inter too

[lunar shadow]

Interchange is the best place, alot of mannequins have them on

[pliant kayak]

[serene reef]

does it fill up?

[crisp nest]

no

[sacred holly]

i already know what you're gonna say

[vocal belfry]

[shy coral]

no

[serene reef]

i heard rumours 👀

[shy coral]

it's fixed

[crisp nest]

thats really old @serene reef

[sacred holly]

nah it's fixed

[crisp nest]

it used to be

[serene reef]

thats why i asked lmao

[crisp nest]

i thought it was

[sacred holly]

but wait now I HAVE A QUESTION

[shy coral]

yis

[sacred holly]

what the fuck is a use of a fuel tank if it's empty

[crisp nest]

but u can recoup losses by crafting with empties

[shy coral]

mags case

[cinder hound]

Strength training

or crafting to mag case

or nade case

[sacred holly]

oh yeah you can craft it right

[crisp nest]

@serene reef 3 of them can be used for a craft

[sacred holly]

yeah okay i forgot about that

[crisp nest]

if you have room save empties

[cinder hound]

but mainly strength training

[shy coral]

just use bucko

[serene reef]

metal fuel tank = nades box

[shy coral]

cheaper

[cosmic tinsel]

you can sell, you can use for str training, and you can craft. also hi soft

[crisp nest]

sell to jaeger for like 3k

[shy coral]

no

[crisp nest]

i thought it was 3k

[shy coral]

flea more profitable

[cosmic tinsel]

^

[shy coral]

like what 30k?

[crisp nest]

i thought its not FIR after use

[shy coral]

no

[crisp nest]

ok

[shy coral]

after use still fir

[serene reef]

jaeger 3k, flea 35k?

[crisp nest]

keep it if u have room to craft magbox

[serene reef]

45k *

[shy coral]

just wrecked this exfil camper out of existence with saiga 9mm

[crisp nest]

why so many troopers

unless it was his

[bitter oak]

For shooter from heaven, can you use a sight?

[cinder hound]

shooterborne?

ur supposed to use a scope

;-;

i think ur crazy

if u use iron

[bitter oak]

Sorry the tarkov shooter

[sacred holly]

yeah

[cinder hound]

yes

[rose bluff]

anyone wanna run customs with me? im pretty new lol

[cinder hound]

depending which one u have

[sacred holly]

the 1st one you're not supposed to use one

[cinder hound]

first one is iron only

[sacred holly]

1st one you gotta do 5 scavs like 40 meters out with no scope

[bitter oak]

Eliminate 5 scavs with bolt action without scope at least 40 meters away

[sacred holly]

beat you to it mungo

[bitter oak]

Damn mobile

[sacred holly]

lmao

[cinder hound]

why did u ask then

LOL

[bitter oak]

Is a sight a scope?

[crisp nest]

he means iron sights

or do you mean reflex sights and the like

[bitter oak]

Yeah, can I put a reflex sight on a mosin or something? Or would that not count

[crisp nest]

id assume you cant

[bitter oak]

Ok ty

[cosmic tinsel]

wiki says no

[bitter oak]

Ok thanks. I’ll be there for a while then 😂

[cosmic tinsel]

ehh just cruise around

check spawns

shoreline was my go to for htis

[sacred holly]

scav house on woods

pretty contested is that isue but yeah lol

[cosmic tinsel]

i have terrible luck there

until the last 20 min of raid

check scav bunker, sunken town, regular town, train station, emercom camp, spine, sawmill, dead mans shack, and scav house

in sort of a big loop

go to any of those and rotate to any other one of those, and keep in mind sawmill can get nutty

[sacred holly]

sawmill gets hella nutty and outskirts is right by scav house so people tend to go by there to goto the outskirts extract

[crisp nest]

i camp village

imo check scav bunker, the camp in between it and scav bridge, and village

if you want low traffic areas

[bold kernel]

yo im having troubles buying the game can anyone help me?

[brave wagon]

What's the problem?

[cinder hound]

2$

thing

LOL

[bold kernel]

pretty much

[cinder hound]

[bold kernel]

[cinder hound]

[brave wagon]

You have to wait a bit sometimes.
