[chrome nova]

made it smaller

[earnest oak]

shit picture, but you can see that, from old gas, everything else is to the south

[unreal horizon]

never seen this map, pretty cool

[chrome nova]

yeah, its one of version, there is more on Reddit i think

[pine olive]

can someone help me w goldne swag on customs please

[fading violet]

I just don't see how they can reliably connect all the maps with their current servers lol

[earnest oak]

not a chance

there'd be so much dsync lol

[chrome nova]

we will see

[unreal horizon]

No shame in sitting in a bush for 20 mins then grabbing it quick

[pine olive]

tru

[dreamy monolith]

Im lvl 4 i need 1-2 people for Woods and I need Convoy, Jaeger, and 2 more salewa kits for tasks

[sharp badge]

does anyone have a map of woods which has jaegers camp on it

[supple flume]

https://i.imgur.com/ZnGEH2U.png

find the plane icon then look slightly south of it

[sharp badge]

ty

[turbid magnet]

mapgenie.com has great maps 🙂

[supple flume]

I just tried to do that jaeger one, and found it thankfully

only to just get destroyed in the last 10 steps to the outskirts extract

are people just camping the extracts on that map?

[unreal horizon]

not really

[supple flume]

alright, I just got lucky I guess

[stuck dirge]

Also outskirts is the only extract on that side of the map that doesn't need a key

[supple flume]

I had the choice between factory and outskirts but I got burnt by factory when first trying this map.. hadn't looked up that weird requirement

[stuck dirge]

The zb-014 key isn't bad to have

[unreal horizon]

bridge car for 3k roubles is a great option

[stuck dirge]

I have only used that extract once and it was a terrible experience

But everyone says it is a good extract so I will have to try it again, just had an unlucky first experience

[unreal horizon]

Note you dont have to be there for the 60 seconds, just for the end

[crisp nest]

^

dont cross it

@stuck dirge you mustve crossed the car right

[stuck dirge]

Right after my teammate activated the extract timer, a two person team starting shooting from down the road

[crisp nest]

youll instantly get killed by a scav sniper who shoots you even if you run

[crisp nest]

yeah they can see that its activated i think

[stuck dirge]

We all made it out luckily but it was an experience trying to fight while also not losing track off time

[chrome nova]

one time on Customs we run for the car and saw that someone already trying to get on it, we bombarded it with the nades and got on the car, he is not ))

[bold kernel]

looking for help im 13 and level 2 all i really do in the game is pvp looking to team with someone who know how to play and show me how to play

[quaint flicker]

i can get the basics down with you

[small cairn]

Honestly most of the earlygame stuff is done outside the game

Learning maps, ammo types, valueables etc

atleast IMo

[quaint flicker]

yeah i wouldve gone through maps, some gameplay mechanic and equipment/ammo and loot before entering a raid

[small cairn]

Rest is mostly getting used to that knowledge and then muscle memory

[unborn nova]

yo could someone help me and my friend i dont know how to play

[small cairn]

Man small runs like these really add up quickly

[neon willow]

yeh they do thats that chedda right there

[granite dagger]

Imagine having a gamma

[small cairn]

I have RR, but I don't bring rope, so I can have more loot

[granite dagger]

Well hopefully get the eod with the next wipe

[small cairn]

I mean u can get the 2x4 pouch relativly easy

[granite dagger]

Ye already have it

[small cairn]

exactly, so it doesn't help by that big of a margin IMO

[granite dagger]

But 3x3 is well 3x3 big stonks

[small cairn]

its 1 slot more of stonks

and u can fit tank batteries in it

[granite dagger]

But bless god that I got that Beta case, found 2 GPUs in a hatchet run

[small cairn]

Im so sad I dont have kappa somteimes

cuz I find like double aesa

or something

[granite dagger]

oh 2x4 nvm tought u mean 2x3

[crisp nest]

hatchet running is no-no

pls no

[small cairn]

Pistol running

[crisp nest]

^^

hatchet running cringe

[granite dagger]

Nah I became the predator

[small cairn]

I love pistol running now

even tho I mostly bring shit guns

or well

siht ammo

[jaunty bay]

Anyone feel like helping a newbie out?

[granite dagger]

chop a scav and hunt more loot

[small cairn]

it is just to fend of the scavs

and occasionally face tap someone

[granite dagger]

Naaah real men chop down scavs we dont need no guns

[crisp nest]

when im poor i play factory and hope to get 3 kits for the price of one

lmao

[small cairn]

Takes to much time, u dont have time to hunt for a scav when you are me on reserve

[crisp nest]

^

[small cairn]

also I play scav on factory for the excitement, gives me that pvp feel

and sometimes u just wipe a few players and steal their shit

[granite dagger]

Ye scav on factory is fun

[small cairn]

but now that money has become redundant to me Idk what to do

[crisp nest]

factory scav all the chads have left

[small cairn]

I really wanna do rat stuff, but...It has no purpose

[crisp nest]

so i usually scav reserve than actually pmc on factory

[granite dagger]

Invest it all into printer paper and turn it into toilet paper ez

[small cairn]

I wiped a guy that wiped 4 other guys

[crisp nest]

then hes stupid

[small cairn]

he was on his way out

unfortunately I passed by

[crisp nest]

i wipe the lobby a lot on factory but ive never gone past 5 minutes

so i dont meet pscavs

[small cairn]

I wiped the ENTIRE thing

as in players, scavs and player scavs

I was doing a kill pmcs/scavs with a silenced shotgun

forgot which quest

[crisp nest]

yeah but he shouldve left thats the thing

[small cairn]

I mean he was doing quests

[neon willow]

let other people kill everything kill them when there looting

[crisp nest]

also you cant have 6 players on factory

[neon willow]

5 v 1

[small cairn]

Im pretty sure u can

[crisp nest]

u cant have 6 in daytime

[small cairn]

rarely, but it does happen, no?

[crisp nest]

im pretty sure they removed the 6 in daytime

[small cairn]

really?

[crisp nest]

also factory players loot fast

[granite dagger]

5 is max

[crisp nest]

^

night time has 6 i think

[small cairn]

I thought there was a small chance of a 5 man stack meeting a single guy

[granite dagger]

Went in 4 Man squads a few times every time there is only 1 other PMC

[upper tapir]

so if you 5 stack on factory do you just have it to yourself until 10 minutes?

[granite dagger]

Yos

[crisp nest]

5 minutes in

not 10

[upper tapir]

gotcha

need to get some more buddies then to farm it up

that safe always has some nice stuff

[granite dagger]

Nah its boring af and not enough loot for 5

[cosmic tinsel]

you can probably find people in the channels here. just hop in a factory channel

[upper tapir]

scav farming

[cosmic tinsel]

i agree w waluigi

but you can farm scavs

[crisp nest]

^^

[upper tapir]

im just trying to level so i can get my trader rep up

[crisp nest]

i only 5 stack to hide in gate 3 while all of us voiceline

[granite dagger]

Its only good to trade items

[crisp nest]

then playerscavs come in

and they hear "theres a fucking rat" "blyatttt" and they get blasted by 5 players

lol

[granite dagger]

Imagine hearing USEC

99.9% of my encounters are bears

[neat nebula]

i’ve got a question about rashalla, i was fighting his scavs with someone else and i only shot one before i died with a shotgun at close range, and on the death screen apparently the single scav absorbed 1200 armor damage and all my pellets hit?

[upper tapir]

is it worth it to kill the scav bosses?

[fossil siren]

they can drop some nice stuff

[granite dagger]

Depends how hard its for ya

[crisp nest]

yes if you are skilled enough

[sand geode]

Im new and i need alot of help so if anyone's interested i could really use it

[upper tapir]

i assume a level 6 shouldnt try lol

[neat nebula]

does anyone know how a scav didn’t die from a shotgun at close range

[granite dagger]

Not worth it to hunt them down and then plug walk with barely any meds left across the map

[crisp nest]

his guards have korunds and gzhels and gen4s and shit

[granite dagger]

A R M O R

[upper tapir]

ammo types matter a lot

[crisp nest]

he had a shotgun

[upper tapir]

i just learned about them and its changed the world

[granite dagger]

Unless he melted them with AP-20 or Flechette its poop

[crisp nest]

he said 1 shot had 1200 absorbed

thats not possible

unless you get a 3-4x collat on each pellet

[granite dagger]

Should have aimed for the legs am I right?

[crisp nest]

yeah but im saying what he said isnt possible

maximum damage in a shot unless he has ks23

is 400 with magnum buck

1200 absorbed means 1200+ dmg

so each pellet has to hit more than 3 hitboxes on average

and they have to be armored

which isnt possible

[river topaz]

Was thinking about running shoreline but I don't know any good keys tto get. Anyone wanna tell me what keys I should get ?

[thorn siren]

lvl 11 LFG interchange

[cosmic tinsel]

pick yer poisons

tape key is great and easy

[river topaz]

Wow

that is a lot of keys lolol

Do you think I can fit all of them in a dox case?

prolly not right?

[fossil siren]

i think you can

some keys give access to like 3 rooms and some rooms just suck if you count that

[river topaz]

what rooms suck?

[fossil siren]

Rooms that dont have high valuable spawns otherwise i think theyre all mosty good idrk this is my first wipe and sometimes some rooms are just alot less valuable than others

[boreal gust]

level 6 here looking for another low level player to do some woods runs. only lf duos and we can do scav when its up

[nocturne ice]

a lot of chads run resort be careful

[unreal horizon]

good thing he's going woods lol

[supple flume]

any tips to actually extract at outskirts on woods? I've managed to go 3 times through that map without trouble only to get killed in the last stride to extract

[unreal horizon]

bring money and go car extract if you want

[stuck dirge]

Are you being killed by people at the extract or from elsewhere?

[supple flume]

at the extract, there's usually a person or two (from a few different angles so far) who basically hits right in the last open stretch to the area

[abstract breach]

anyone got lev 3 on mechanic? i need 2 parts for a quest

[crisp nest]

dont go near mill

[crisp nest]

might be a scav at scav house actually

[stuck dirge]

I usually go around the left edge of the map when going to outskirts and slowly approach using the bushes as cover but not going through them

[supple flume]

I actually pass by mill without a problem, I'm talking about literally seeing the extract and in the last 10 steps to it getting hit from people (who aren't behind me)

[crisp nest]

unlucky

or are you EU

[supple flume]

NA

[crisp nest]

no offense all the EU players ive met play like rats

[supple flume]

I was just trying to figure out if there was a thing I'm not getting yet about that area, like an obvious angle from a spot that I could counter from another angle or something

[crisp nest]

at least german servers

[crisp nest]

i would personally go a bit in the woods while running up, or take zb014 key too, or take bridge

[supple flume]

I've arrived there from east, north east slightly and south east, and so far I just get shot at about the same distance to the extract every time

[unreal horizon]

what time are you extracting?

[supple flume]

yeah I think I'll just bridge, I don't have the key yet (and too low lvl for flea)

[unreal horizon]

try not to extract at the same time as everyone else

[supple flume]

when do they extract roughly?

[stuck dirge]

When you are level 10 it is a pretty cheap key

[unreal horizon]

if you're going towards an extract ~25 mins in you might have some company

[crisp nest]

^^

[abstract breach]

anyone got lev 3 on mechanic? i need 2 parts for a quest

[supple flume]

I got there around the 10min mark, since I basically dashed for it while just trying to get the jaeger quest completed haha

[plush quest]

i can

@abstract breach

what parts

[supple flume]

And noted about the key @stuck dirge, sorry for the other at

[abstract breach]

SGA stock for M870

Remington Tactical Choke 12ga

only theses

[unreal horizon]

i can grab them

[stuck dirge]

I love the key, it also has loot if you go down into it

Not great loot but sometimes you gotta take what you can get

[plush quest]

\

these?

[abstract breach]

yeah

[wary grotto]

meta stm?

[bold kernel]

boost poggers

[bold kernel]

build it for ergo

[supple flume]

@stuck dirge I'll take anything hah. I'm at a point where my best loot is spawning as a scav and the game seemingly saying "I pity you, here are some keys, a CPU fan and a helmet - now get out ASAP"

[bold kernel]

this is what i use

forgot to change the charging handle use a raptor on it

[unreal horizon]

use your scavs as a free loot run, if you just extract with spawning gear you won't make much money

[bold kernel]

this is even more ergo

[uneven cedar]

man its tough out here

[supple flume]

I do the caches etc. only if I don't already have valuable stuff at spawn, like spawning with a Factory key and Customs office key in the same scav run 😄

[stuck dirge]

I am about a month into the game and found I learned the most from using my scavs like a pmc, unless they have a really valuable item. It is a good chance to learn without risk of losing anything

[uneven cedar]

played this game for 2 years, come back after a 5 month break and it takes me two weeks to get to level 10

lol

[bold kernel]

thats rough

[restive pasture]

I feel you dude, I came back after such a long time and now im only like lvl 11 aswell

Its a tough life out there

[bold kernel]

yo whats the most valueable craft rn

[unreal widget]

I finally started playing again. Been doing offline and scav raids. Finally did a pmc raid and died without doing a single hit of damage. Can someone help me not be trash? ;-;

[cinder hound]

F

Try waiting a bit

B4 going to hot places

[stuck dirge]

Anyone have tips for leveling peacekeeper, I haven't spent enough money with him yet

[cinder hound]

And sell to him

[cinder hound]

Got it?

[stuck dirge]

Yes ,thank you

[crisp nest]

lmao

and antique axes and cyclons for therapist/jaeger

[cinder hound]

Yes

That

Sefera full condition to ragman

Silencers for skier

Thats all

[unreal horizon]

buy dollars > use dollars > sell back what you bought > repeat

[crisp nest]

what is sefera

sphera??

[cinder hound]

Some helmet

Sells for same as flea

[crisp nest]

is it the kiver with ears

[stuck dirge]

I just don't use much from peacekeeper yet since he is only level 2

[cinder hound]

Lost no money

Yea

[crisp nest]

ahhh

[crisp nest]

then sell diary and ssds

[cinder hound]

This is how u lose money

[unreal horizon]

yup but it's the fastest

[crisp nest]

but its fastest

[unreal horizon]

and you don't need to spend much

[crisp nest]

ssd and diary are better tho

[cinder hound]

I dont think its that fast

Diary best

Just buy 50

At once

[stuck dirge]

I did that method for the second level, just bought and sold back pistols

[cinder hound]

And sell at once

Ur done

Ya u lose money that way

[winter plume]

Lol I just bought 11k of dollars from him from level 1 -> 2

[cinder hound]

Why not make money instead

Just doesnt make sense to me

I guess thats why im at like couple mills

🙃

[stuck dirge]

Money isn't an issue for me yet. I am still new enough that I have gear fear so I don't really use super modded weapons or body armour yet. I have money to spend

[neat nebula]

does anyone know how to get the leather man multi tool for the hideout

[cinder hound]

Ya even tho its not an issue, its still good to save money

So i can buy bullets

[cinder hound]

Mechanic

[winter plume]

Think it sells from..

[cinder hound]

Sells it

[winter plume]

^^

[neat nebula]

and what about bolts?

[cinder hound]

90% of ur income should go to ammos btw

Bolts?

Just find them

[winter plume]

Flea or toolboxes

[cinder hound]

Not judt toolboxes

Everywhere lul

[winter plume]

lol you right

[cinder hound]

Jackets shelves

Top of boxes

Literally everywhere

[stuck dirge]

Tips on where to go for the samples quest?

[cinder hound]

U dont do that quest

If u really really want to

Labs is ur best bet

U need green keycard

Which u cant buy on market

🙃

[crisp nest]

sanitar can have the stims tooo but hard to get right

[cinder hound]

Ya

Especially when

Sanitar hears u

And starts popping all his stims

LOL

[stuck dirge]

I ran into sanitar yesterday luckily he got sniped before I saw him

[cinder hound]

He uses all his stims by the time i kill all his guards

[stuck dirge]

Had just enough time to loot the body and run before a grenade came crashing through the greenhouse windows

[cinder hound]

🙃

Honestly

Dont do samples

As a

Im gonna do samples this raid

Or ima do samples exclusively

Its impossible

Unless u run labs back to back with green keycard

Ur better off using scav case

And spawning in as a scav with the stims

Then trying to focus that quest kekw

[crisp nest]

yeah this happens a lot tbh

[stuck dirge]

The wiki says card with the blue marking is best for the quest

[crisp nest]

but its 280k each

[cinder hound]

Itd a lie

[crisp nest]

and u need to go labs with it

[cinder hound]

Also

Thats labs

LOL

[crisp nest]

absolute lie yeah

[stuck dirge]

Imma wait to do it though

[cinder hound]

U might get a mule stim

[stuck dirge]

Not a priority

[cinder hound]

Its like 90%

Mule stim

Spawn

[proven saddle]

you can craft the mule, thats about it

[stuck dirge]

Where can I find BEARs, NA has so few

[proven saddle]

bears are players

wdym where do i find them

[stuck dirge]

I know, NA is mostly USEC

Like region wise

[proven saddle]

pretty sure its just random right?

also if youre na and you play on eu youre gonna get disconnected every 5 mins

[stuck dirge]

Thats fair, I get disconnected on the NA servers occasionally

[twilit lily]

damn, need an M14 UTG for Gunsmith 15, but none are on the market, and i don't have mechanic level 3

[brisk bobcat]

Can@the tc-2001, 2002 and tc 800 have headphones

Are any of them compatible?

[crisp nest]

yes

[twilit lily]

its actually pretty dumb looking at this

what kind of fucking sniper goes "eh, this harder to get rail ruins the build" even tho it cheaper and doesn't require a 100k extra rail added

ffs

[unreal horizon]

Just don't do that quest?

It doesn't lead to anything, just wait it out

[twilit lily]

I'll do whatever I dang well please, it gets me closer to level 30. Hell, it would get me 30

which is the main goal here

[plush quest]

all 3 can use any headphones

[crisp nest]

^

[plush quest]

except for the RAC cause that only goes on airframe

[crisp nest]

@twilit lily then just spend the 100k

[twilit lily]

Im broke as shit mate

and its not on the market

[crisp nest]

scav once

[crisp nest]

o

[plush quest]

ill guy it

[crisp nest]

get someone to drop/ fence it

[twilit lily]

its one of those situations

not yet at least, but I wanna check something

[plush quest]

what part

[crisp nest]

m14 utg

he said at least

[twilit lily]

yeah, that one

[plush quest]

ill fence a few

[grizzled mountain]

what are gp coins even for?

[plush quest]

barters

for weapons

[grizzled mountain]

oh

[crisp nest]

and armor

i think

[plush quest]

what level mechanic?

[twilit lily]

mechanic 3

[plush quest]

ill sell 4 to fence

lmk when ur ready

[twilit lily]

ready

[plush quest]

sold

[normal sonnet]

Anyone down to help me with a few quests?

[twilit lily]

none of em showed up, lol

Welp, im just gonna try and find another way

[stuck dirge]

What quests?

[fading violet]

they don't show up right away

[twilit lily]

wait, its a level 2 barter

wd-40 and weapon parts

and people actually buy it for 100k huh? thats so dumb, lol

[fading violet]

people don't check barters

[unreal horizon]

^

[fading violet]

there are so many profitable small barters that I keep doing that I kinda don't want people to realize

most obvious one is salewa barter

[twilit lily]

well, gunsmith 15 done

[fading violet]

paid is usually like 12-15k on flea

and people pay 25k for a salewa out right

[unreal horizon]

I bought 15 syringes for 8k each, never buying iskra's again

[fading violet]

that's the one I do a lot too

[crisp nest]

imagine not trading for medbox

medcase

[unreal horizon]

lol some days you can even make profit off that

[fading violet]

what's the vendor price of medcase?

[unreal horizon]

~540k

[fading violet]

wait what

[unreal horizon]

more like 550

trades for dirt cheap tho

[fading violet]

shit

today I learned

I thought it vendors for like 100k

[plush quest]

it does

[fading violet]

the barter cost like 200k that's dirt cheap

[plush quest]

hes saying how much it costs

[fading violet]

oh

[unreal horizon]

oh I misinterpreted that

I assumed you meant buy price lol

[dreamy monolith]

LF 1-2 people for woods or customs and i have a few more challenges to do (Bronze Wristwatch, find a shotgun, and 2 more salewa kits) NAE

[normal sonnet]

Its the prapor convey and marking the big things

[crisp nest]

find the toz on factory scav

it has to be a toz and 3m armor btw

toz is on scavs and 3m spawns on factory

[dreamy monolith]

i got tha armour

[crisp nest]

go factory when u have scavs

just kill the scavs and hope for toz

fastest way

[dreamy monolith]

ok

[silver cape]

Anyone else new just looking to go in some raids

[boreal gust]

can someone watch my woods stream and help me extract?

[sturdy raft]

i got a little problem, im mid raid and i got a bug so that im always searching my backpack or rig and i cant pick something up or drop something

[unreal horizon]

Find a bush, alt f4, reconnect

Don't in-game disconnect, that will kill you

Alt f4 you stay in raid

[sturdy raft]

ok

hope that no one will find me

[unreal horizon]

it'll be fiiiiiine

[sturdy raft]

but thx btw

[crisp nest]

just do it in a bush

away from buildinhgs

[sturdy raft]

yes

game is already starting

[bold kernel]

@crisp nest Why dont you love me?

[crisp nest]

i cant play on weekdays bruv

so i just give advice

[sturdy raft]

this is bullshit, i loaded in and got instantly killed after that stupid bug

is there a way to avoid that the search bug is happening?

[crisp nest]

its never happened to me

[sturdy raft]

lucky u

i killed a chad an then i got the search bug and as i loaded in for the second time i got instantly killed by an scav with a shitty aksu

[cerulean spruce]

I don't know what is the step up from the penis helmet?

[crisp nest]

ratnik

beats penis in everyway and cheaper if u barter

otherwise ulach

[cerulean spruce]

Then above that is faceshields that cost 500k~?

[crisp nest]

cheapest faceshield thats decent is lshz

**zsh sorry

[cerulean spruce]

Are there any face shields that you can wear headphones with?

other than stormtrooper

[cosmic tinsel]

fast mt

tc800

wendy

[crisp nest]

tc800 is cheapest

but the shield sucks

unless u have pk4 or get one off fence

[cerulean spruce]

So faceshields + headsets are for rich people then?

[crisp nest]

usually

[cosmic tinsel]

the best answer is pretty much pick altyn or pick headphones

[cerulean spruce]

rip

[crisp nest]

yup

[cerulean spruce]

ah ok

[unreal adder]

How much does a red keycard go for

[inland pecan]

is this the place to ask for this kind of assistance? my buddy and I are looking for some...backup to go to factory for 'delivery from the past'

and factory is a scary place

[crisp nest]

100mil

[unreal adder]

i'd offer to go but im not the biggest chad either

[crisp nest]

no he needs a 5 stack

so no players join

[strong barn]

@inland pecan Join LFG factory #3

Ill go but we need 2 more if you and your friend are going

[unreal adder]

thats a lot, i dont even have enough to list it...

[cosmic tinsel]

suffering from success

[native tartan]

where did you find it?

[unreal adder]

am i allowed to post videos here?

like ashort clip

Found it in a wallet on a shelf lol

in customs

[crisp nest]

yes

[fading violet]

lucky man

hope you got out with it

[lusty sonnet]

is led slug better than CSP? 12ga

[crisp nest]

both shit

[lusty sonnet]

i can't afford anything else so that doesn't help

[fading violet]

the CSP slug is slightly better since it has more damage, but they are both kinda bad

just use buckshot from jaeger

[lusty sonnet]

i haven't got jaeger yet

[crisp nest]

then do prapor

[fading violet]

you can buy them from prapor too, 7mm

[lusty sonnet]

i've been trying to but woods is terrifying as i only know customs and factory

[crisp nest]

do prapor 7mm

[fading violet]

aim at face or legs

[crisp nest]

face cuz its 7mm tbh

[hazy turret]

Is anyone willing to help a beginner in here? just trying to get tasks done

[fading violet]

still a two shot with 7mm to the legs

[lusty sonnet]

thanks

[crisp nest]

true but u have to aim well

[sullen cairn]

yes I can help @hazy turret

[quaint flicker]

sorry but its already 3am at my place and i cant gather enough energy to help anyone out atm so i guess i should go to sleep but there are plenty of others who will help you out

[hazy turret]

legit just looking to have fun and not suck

[hazy turret]

Tc800 can

2001 and 2002 cant

[brisk bobcat]

Ok thank you dude

[plush quest]

Np

[brisk bobcat]

You helped me a bunch

[crisp nest]

isnt tc800 bad bcuz no ear coverage

with that bug

[brisk bobcat]

No one shoots in ears

If someone is to the side you can turn away

[crisp nest]

but theeres a bug

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D34yMexIDww

@brisk bobcat

[brisk bobcat]

Ok

[plush quest]

I wouldn't wear a tc 800 with a fs

The faceshield is so expensive and you'll prob get hit ears

[plush quest]

What level pk do you have?

[crisp nest]

yeah unless u get fs from fence its not worth

[brisk bobcat]

Pk?

[plush quest]

Peacekeeper

[brisk bobcat]

2

[plush quest]

If you have peacekeeper level 3 you can buy an airframe from the flea

Then barter for chops

And buy a fs

[sterile snow]

I'm trying to get a laser on my M1a4, What can be used?

[plush quest]

Handgaurd with rail

[brisk bobcat]

Is the caiman compatible with any face shield?

[plush quest]

Yes

[crisp nest]

yes

the applique

[plush quest]

A faceshield qnd mandibles

[plush quest]

No the applique is like a slap plate

[sterile snow]

This is what I've got thus so far. How can I up this?

[fading violet]

get a better muzzle and stock and slap on a foregrip

[brisk bobcat]

Can you attach a face Shield and headphones??

[plush quest]

Yew

[brisk bobcat]

Nice

Thanks

[crisp nest]

oh

some guy told me it was for caiman tho

[plush quest]

A faceshield and mandibles to cover full fqce

[plush quest]

It is

[fading violet]

the caiman faceshield is bad and you can't lift it

caiman is not cheap either, I would just wear exfil

[plush quest]

Caiman sucks yea

[cerulean spruce]

Is it ever a good idea to do night rads for ratting and questing

or is it just going to be even harder?

[crisp nest]

depends

what quest

[cerulean spruce]

Is MIA just a better SKS?

[crisp nest]

no it shoots 762 x 51

[ocean moth]

how does it work with the beginners assitance rooms? i just join one or do i have to be invited to one?

im like level 8 but have no clue with the maps still so just looking for others to run with

[cerulean spruce]

Does that only matter because I can't buy the good ammo for 762 x 51 yet?

[wary grotto]

difference between all the difference sa-58s?

[crisp nest]

you still can

u can afford m61 at 1600 id assume and m80 is only 400

[crisp nest]

different attach ments

[cerulean spruce]

Then why does it matter about 762 x 51 vs 762 x 39

762 x 39 bullets travel faster and has less bullet drop?

[crisp nest]

762 x 51 is better

bruh larger bullet = more power 🤣

[cerulean spruce]

Yea but I asked the question is MIA just a better SKS then you said no it shoots 762 x 51

[crisp nest]

yeah mia shoots larger shots

well it's semi auto so i guess it is 🤷‍♂️

and it has better stats and mags etc.

[wary grotto]

which is better thou aus or bel?

[plush quest]

It is

[crisp nest]

i dunno but BEL as a scav starts with 10 round mags

[bold kernel]

what cheap armor is good

[crisp nest]

id assume AUS for that reasom

[plush quest]

None really

[bold kernel]

what armor is good?

[plush quest]

Tv 110 is good for 100k

[crisp nest]

rat rig

he needs cheap

so rat rig probably

[plush quest]

Kinda aforgot that exists lol

[bold kernel]

what rat rig

[plush quest]

Rig from ragman

50k level 4 armour

[crisp nest]

40k ish on flea sometimes

its the 6b something i think

its yellow class 4 armor

[plush quest]

6b3tm

[wind birch]

Is there a pentalt for leaving raids if you get a shit spawn

[plush quest]

You lose all your gear and you add an awol to your stqts

And have to pay 10k to heal

[crisp nest]

yup

yup

[bold kernel]

is killa armor worth?

[plush quest]

Yes

[wind birch]

I’m hatchet running so I don’t care. Will it take my red rebel?

[plush quest]

Not if you are poor though

[plush quest]

No

Hatchet running cringe

[crisp nest]

^^

cringe

[wind birch]

Fuck it then. I’m not wasting my time trying to get a graphics card when I spawn at Emercom lol

[plush quest]

Hatchet runners are only good for greadier

Helping me with quest

[wind birch]

It’s actually great for my Bitcoin farm

[crisp nest]

i could be rich by hatchet running ic

but its cringe

oof tetriz

[wind birch]

Nah you couldn’t. You would t make it out often enough.

[crisp nest]

no but i can die

the point of hatchet running is to gamma it

well i have alpha lol

[wind birch]

Didn’t meant to bring docs. But these runs were made within a half hour of each other. Call it cringe, I call it efficient

[proven pagoda]

any advice on what to take on my first raid?

i have standard btw

[plush quest]

Refund the game

Playing tarkov was the worst mistake of my life

[proven pagoda]

nah im not gonna refund it

[wind birch]

and just got another one since I posted that pic. Hatchet run OP

[wind birch]

I’d go in looking for group and find someone who wants to help out a new player

[proven pagoda]

alr

[wind birch]

Learning this game alone is shit

[ocean moth]

im new too, but i just took one of the pp19s they give you on start and ran with that and a pack and picked up everything i could

Learning alone is very fucking trash lmao

[proven pagoda]

im just gonna grab a grach and a paca and see where i get with that

[crisp nest]

add a cobra sight to the pp19

[wind birch]

You still have all your M4s and stuff

[proven pagoda]

im bear

[crisp nest]

he picked bear

[plush quest]

I went my first wipe alone cause I didn't know lfg discords existed

Sucked

[proven pagoda]

so i have ak and pp-19s still

[ocean moth]

kurt im gonna get on in a bit if you want to run together, im realtively new too

[crisp nest]

BEAR ON TOP IMAGINE USING M4

[proven pagoda]

im getting off pretty soon, i got school tomorrow. im gonna hop off after i try a raid out

[crisp nest]

(unmodded m4)

[supple flume]

it's fun to play alone, I get to make all the most stupid mistakes and hate myself and then hopefully not make them again (and then make new ones)

[wind birch]

Also I recommend customs

A lot of your quests are on it

[plush quest]

(Unmodded ak)

400 recoil

[wind birch]

Game doesn’t really open up till level 10

[ocean moth]

my biggest problem is just map orientation, i dont have a fucking clue where im at half the time even with the map up

[proven pagoda]

im just gonna run into customs witha grach and some meds

[crisp nest]

@plush quest should i become a dirty hatchet runner to get my btc farm up

[wind birch]

I felt like this for the longest. Fortunately it gets better

[supple flume]

@ocean moth load offline, predict where you are, walk a bit and turn, predict again, do that for the length of a couple full runs and at least for customs it's pretty much entirely mapped

[plush quest]

No

Never

[ocean moth]

yeah ive been running with some friends who are high level and im starting to understand it but im no where near being able to run solo confidently

[crisp nest]

do gpus only spawn on inter

[plush quest]

Nope

[ocean moth]

i never thought about doing that lmao thats a good idea

[wind birch]

Only nice part about solo is you know all the sounds are yours

[plush quest]

Any map but factory

[wind birch]

Most spawns and highest percentage/easiest to get to

[crisp nest]

ill probably run hunter or a pistol on inter

maybe rat rig too

[wind birch]

@crisp nest do it. Literally another one haha

[proven pagoda]

should i try to practice a lot with scav as a new player?

[wind birch]

^ scav every time it’s up.

[crisp nest]

but hatchet running is bad for the game

[wind birch]

You white knighting for tarkov?

[crisp nest]

the economy that is

yeah bcuz i dont like the fked up economy

[wind birch]

Yea me either. But you know where that gets you? Nowhere. I’ve been playing less than 2 months and I’m tired of not having endless money and always running into thicc bois cus I’m late in the wipe. So I hatchet ran snd got my btc farm up and now I can thic boi whenever I want and who cares if I lose it cus when I wake up in the morning. My gears paid for

If you can’t beat them, join them. That’s my motto

[bold kernel]

so scavs come after you if you're naked

is it when if they see you and then they chase

[unreal horizon]

chillll

[bold kernel]

or it's when the raid starts

?

[crisp nest]

yes

u are tagged/cursed if u are naked they seek u out

[wind birch]

Oh yea they’ll fuck you up

[bold kernel]

ok

thanks for the info

[wind birch]

Gotta get shifty on the hatchet runs sometimes

I didn’t find it an issue, cus their easy to Juke and usually aren’t in the way, but if you’re having trouble with it run a shitty pistol

[proven pagoda]

i just loaded into a game and i couldnt control anything

so i jsut got popped by someone

[wind birch]

Alt tab when that happens usually gives

Fixes

[proven pagoda]

i tried

i just couldnt move

[wind birch]

Oh that’s a bummer then

If your kit was shit tho you’ll def get it back

[proven pagoda]

and now i cant click next on the raid ended screen

yeah it was shit

my ammo and meds were in my alpha

[fading violet]

@wind birch you are saying that like it's impossible to progress without hatchet running while that's not the case

[crisp nest]

@proven pagoda it takes like 4 minutes

[wind birch]

Nope. I’m saying it’s a fast way to do it

[crisp nest]

ive had that 3 times when i scav

u juust wait a few mins

[proven pagoda]

ah alr

i wasnt scav btw

i was pmc

[crisp nest]

im just that one guy who never tries to use anything unfair xd

[wind birch]

It’s not unfair lol

[proven pagoda]

i just alt+f4

it wasnt responding to anything

[wind birch]

Did not use Cheats in GTA either lol

[proven pagoda]

im just gonna try this shit again tomorrow

[crisp nest]

nah i mean like unbalanced

I never use anything thats unbalanced in games

[wind birch]

Then why you got a Bitcoin farm

[crisp nest]

except for the vector in offline xd

[crisp nest]

i dont im gonna get one but its hard cuz i dont play IC

i can get one i just cant afford the gpus

[wind birch]

I scav it, hardly ever raid it besides hatchet tho. Pretty dark map

[ivory ether]

What level should I be when I should learn maps like reserve/interchange, I’m like lvl 7 rn

[wind birch]

You got customs down?

[crisp nest]

reserve is easy af

not as pmc though

[ivory ether]

Ya I think I pretty much got the layout so I don’t have to look at a map

[crisp nest]

scav reserve is easy as hell

[wind birch]

Then just scav whatever map you want next.

Reserve has good loot, but a lot of snipers and exfil campers. Not to mention raiders. So it’s more difficult than interchange I’d say

[ivory ether]

Hmmm ok sounds good

[limpid ledge]

can someone help me organise my stash, im not sure what i should sell

[wind birch]

Just scav whatever map you want next. Once you got it down scav then PMc it

[ivory ether]

Gotcha thnx

[crisp nest]

reserve is easier than inter

but scav inter is easier

[unreal horizon]

^ both true

in my opinion

[wind birch]

I find reserve harder due to the insane amount of campers.

Plus the fighting on interchange is easier to locate and avoid if you want to

Imo

And I like closer range fighting. My longer range aim and target acquisition still needs improvement

[shy coral]

this is tru especially d2

[limpid ledge]

can someone help me organise myt stash

[shy coral]

call?

[ocean moth]

anyone want to run customs?

[shy coral]

what server are u?

[long hull]

hey im still kinda new kinda having a hard time progressing can anyone help possibly?

[ocean moth]

idk how it goes honestly, im in usa though

[shy coral]

welp that's so far

i play in japan sg and korea only

[ocean moth]

ahhh okay, where do you live?

[shy coral]

currently i live in Indonesia

[ocean moth]

ohhh okay, i was on okinawa in japan for like two years, i liked it way better than the us lmao

[ocean moth]

im not that great with map orientation but ill run some raids with you if you want

[long hull]

aight bet dude

[shy coral]

damn don't get killed

[sharp prairie]

At this point its either retiring from college or retiring from tarkov for me

[ocean moth]

probably will lmao, i always get killed before i even see a dude lmao

[shy coral]

complete ur college then u can play tarkov lmao

[ocean moth]

ill send you a friend request real quick and invite you too a server

[ocean moth]

you got a mic?

[long hull]

aight dude

[sharp prairie]

fuck that Im out lmao

[shy coral]

tarkov can play later college have to be rn

[sharp prairie]

still offering sherpa help though

[long hull]

yep!

[ocean moth]

me and golden are about to run a few raids if youd be down to help, i dont really know where im at half the time lmao

[sharp prairie]

I can run with you guys later after I'm done some work brotha

shouldnt be too long

[ocean moth]

alright dope, we'll run a few while we wait

[sharp prairie]

bet bet

[shy coral]

bruh learn the map with minimal gear first

don't go in with ur like max shit

if u don't know the map that is

this worth? i kinda want it

[sharp prairie]

if u have FMJ SX run MP7s dude

shit shreds

[drifting jolt]

i think it would be cheaper to buy the pieces yourself off flea

[shy coral]

ik but i have mp7a2

[sharp prairie]

honestly I recommend AKs now, make it off meta by like a part or 2 and people won't take it, so you'll always get it back

I run the A1 on budget runs, u just get worse ergo recoil doesnt make a difference to me

[drifting jolt]

that works

43 is a pretty decent recoil

[shy coral]

mp7 don't rly need recoil reduction i guess

that's why i use fortis

the 40 rounders i got from chad

[sharp prairie]

cant rlly go wrong with any MP7 build man

40 rounders is the only tough part price wise

[shy coral]

well if u have mech 4

it's not like 100k per mag

[feral plaza]

anyone tryna help me with this woods raid

[shy coral]

what server

[feral plaza]

na east

but i can play what ever

[shy coral]

i can't

can u play korea or japan?

like what's ur ping

[feral plaza]

lemme c

its like 170

[shy coral]

damn close to the border 180

rather not

[feral plaza]

is that unplayable?

ight thx

[shy coral]

180+ is the limit

if u get 180 or higher the game will just straight up kick u

i can try playing with u if u want to take a risk

but either way i have a meeting with my professor after this

[willow pivot]

@feral plaza what you got to do on woods?

[ocean moth]

shoot me a message when youre down with your stuff, were running interchange right now

[sharp prairie]

Will do

[feral plaza]

i have to do the find the convoy and usec thing and survive

[jagged lance]

can anyone buy me a SGA stock for m870 and bring it to me in raid real quick, need it for a task but dont have level 3 mechanic. will pay 30k rubles

[shy coral]

what server

[jagged lance]

dw i got one on dlea

one finally came up after constant refreshing

[shy coral]

bruh

[jagged lance]

ok new request, i need a Compact mount for sights. NAE btw

[shy coral]

it's just like 2k

i'll gib for free

after spawning just kill me

then search my pocket

[jagged lance]

ok

[shy coral]

what map

[jagged lance]

im sorry but i just got one of these as well

[shy coral]

bruh

[willow pivot]

@feral plaza you know what to do like where to go?

Been a while since I did that quest

[pseudo blaze]

Guys I literally just got the game, HELP lol

[willow pivot]

Sure what ya want help with@pseudo blaze

[pseudo blaze]

idek, I've watched some youtube guides but I'm not sure what to focus on or where to go @willow pivot

[willow pivot]

Tasks are a big thing

[jagged lance]

ok new request

Compact mount for sights

you up for it?

[unreal horizon]

you don't have to use that

all you need is 800 sight range, you can replace

[jagged lance]

im not good at this game, what does that mean

[unreal horizon]

basically you don't need the compact mount, you can use something like a BRAVO4 sight

it works as replacement

[drifting jolt]

learning a map first and fore most... customs is the best starting map, good mix of various terrain

[jagged lance]

i know that much

[drifting jolt]

use your scav run every time it's ready... PMC is your own gear, scav is random gear

[jagged lance]

i just dont know specific stuff like what he just said

[drifting jolt]

you wont really have sights early

[jagged lance]

im level 21

[drifting jolt]

face palm

[cobalt hare]

f l e a m a r k e t

[drifting jolt]

i was kind of talking to the other guy, the one i initially tagged, unless that is you

[cobalt hare]

7:31 AM] Ｄｒ． Ｐｈｉｌ: ok new request
[7:32 AM] Ｄｒ． Ｐｈｉｌ: Compact mount for sights

7:34 AM] Ｄｒ． Ｐｈｉｌ: im level 21

[drifting jolt]

yeah, i thought so, he just kind of started chiming in after i tagged the other guy first lol

[atomic raptor]

Anyone want to help with customs quests, I have the keys i need I just keep dying at dorms. Lvl 27 and NA pm me.

[cobalt hare]

Do you know how to get what you need on flea?

[pseudo blaze]

okay I'll try out custom. I've been doing forest offline, hopped online and got merced in 3 minutes lol

[cobalt hare]

woods is pretty easy if you stay away from the lumbermill and usec camp for the first 20 min

[rose rock]

Twice the reticle, twice the accuracy

[unreal horizon]

this is scientifically proven

[rose rock]

and yeh do give custom a go, worth the runs so far imo

amazing

[unreal horizon]

new meta?

[pseudo blaze]

@cobalt hare okay sweet, I must've just gotten unlucky. Or I'm garbage buuuuuttt

[cobalt hare]

i mean there's a lot of action goin on in the first 10-15 minutes of the raid as people contest the best areas

[rose rock]

but after that, rat banquet

[cobalt hare]

it's a viable strat to wait for all of that to blow over in a bush - all these players will have extracted by then - and just walk to where you need to sticking to low-traffic areas and edges of the map

well

yes

but then again you're also a rat so you're on equal footing

[unreal horizon]

yeah if you're new, there's no shame sitting in a bush for a few mins

[pseudo blaze]

okay I'll probably try that. There's just sooo much to this game

[unreal horizon]

that's perfectly acceptable

[cobalt hare]

even if you're not new

[rose rock]

see it this way: between entering and leaving the raid, everything is fair game

[potent ermine]

anyone looking to train a noob?

[unreal horizon]

do your very best to avoid hatchet running and exit camping, but if you're down to 0 money you gotta do what you gotta do

[orchid moon]

i could really use some help going graphics card hunting on interchange

[cobalt hare]

hatchet run and exit camp with no restrictions

[unreal horizon]

🐀

[potent ermine]

https://tenor.com/view/iworkout-rat-mouse-chuha-चूहा-gif-3934706

[cobalt hare]

humankind has been trying to get rid of rats for centuries, some shame and made up rules ain't gonna do it

[rose rock]

do my favorite in reserve: toss bag in manhole extract, sit in tower near CP fence extract's 1st floor

and wait

[unreal horizon]

that one is fucking funny

can't lie

[rose rock]

its a classic blunder

like straight out of a cartoon show

[cobalt hare]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIwICzpQxek this?

[rose rock]

yeap

straight up watched it

and went

"nah, cant be THAT easy"

[unreal horizon]

remember, you aren't rich unless everyone else is poor

I introduce, the cultist knife strat

[rose rock]

👀

[unreal horizon]

if you buy a cultist knife for 30k, it will take 40k to remove the poison

you are the economical winner

[cobalt hare]

introducing

augmentin

[unreal horizon]

no

not my nemesis

[rose rock]

actually the backpack start also happens in reserve's bunker raider spawn

since theres 2~3 "loot" corpses

ppl gonna go and try loot asap

[pseudo blaze]

Well it has been 10 minutes and I have successfully gotten rekt twice. This is brutal lol

[rose rock]

this is natural evolution being sped up for the fact you can go again

you either learn why you died, or keep at it

👀

[pseudo blaze]

fair point fs

[rose rock]

also tmw im about to get the royal shitter

[unreal horizon]

hell yeah

[pseudo blaze]

I'm going in with a pistol and knife

they don't st and a chance

[violet sparrow]

i gotta get jeager to lvl 2 then i can upgrade half of my hideout cuz of the water thingy

[rose rock]

yeap

dude was a pain

[violet sparrow]

ok but like, i lost my gear fear, but now im absolutely broke because of it, and i have no idea the best way for me to get money cuz im not the best with interchange or reserves, and getting to the resort on shoreline is a pain and it's straight chads half the time i go

[rose rock]

you in eu server?

[pseudo blaze]

also is the best way to upgrade the hideout to buy stuff from the traders and fleamarket?

[rose rock]

👀

depends on which is cheaper

[violet sparrow]

nah im on NA

[rose rock]

aite, go for raider spawns in reserve as scav

[pseudo blaze]

i mean compared to trying to loot the stuff

[unreal horizon]

Caches on shoreline are great and low risk, there are like 40 of them and no one grabs them

[rose rock]

worst case: you die
medium case: you find raiders and a pmc/raiders half scavenged
good case: raiders dead
best case: raiders and a few pmcs dead

[violet sparrow]

there's just so many and i've watched a few videos and stuff for where they are but i can never remember when i get to looking for them

[unreal horizon]

@violet sparrow this might help

[violet sparrow]

i might have to go for the raiders on reserve, but idk where the spawns are so ill have to check those out

yeah lol that's nice

thanks

not as straight forward as the interchange caches but it works

[unreal horizon]

you can hit hermetic buzzer and they spawn near there, you can hit power in bunker and they spawn around map room

[rose rock]

so far, the run i do is the place near where you do prapor's bunker quest 1, train station or the udnerground garage

gl with the scavenging o7

[violet sparrow]

ill need it

thanks a bunch

[rose rock]

fkng mood ngl

[unreal horizon]

wrong chat? lmao

[rose rock]

also something that im surprised that has been working well so far is woods, balaclava, mosin and 10 snb rounds

been surviving or dying by being dense

[cobalt hare]

mosin

kinda expensive

[rose rock]

hey its what i got from a scav run

[cobalt hare]

nvm

[rose rock]

but yeh i can go with sv-98/vpo

if it ever goes that low, but both are viable

[rose rock]

fucks sake

¯_(ツ)_/¯

wanted to put that

also quick question: need a ledx, how viable is it to go hatchling and rushing for the ledx and shoving it up the container?

[willow pivot]

Wish I had keys to access a ledx

[rose rock]

tape key right?

[jolly lily]

buy tape key cheap and 6 rare loot spawns

[unreal horizon]

I think you'd have better odds making money to just buy it

[rose rock]

nah need it for med station 3

[unreal horizon]

then hatchet running and hoping for good spawn

I mean they're like 1.1 mil, you can make that in a few scav runs or money runs

[willow pivot]

I usually don't have good scav runs

[cobalt hare]

spend 2 hours playing fleece market daytrader then

[wind birch]

What rate does 25 cards farm each Bitcoin at? I can’t find shit on the wiki

[unreal horizon]

scav interchange and grab loot off dead bodies around tech stores

[rose rock]

yeah i considered that, wanna rush hideout stuff and gonna need some money for intel 2^^"

[cobalt hare]

sure, you have wasted your life on this, but money is money and it's as safe as you can get

[unreal horizon]

14 hours 50 mins

[rose rock]

fairs, will bother tomorrow then

[willow pivot]

So run interchange got it

[wind birch]

Perfect thank you. Is that after the nerf last week

[unreal horizon]

yeah it's updated

as per the chart at https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Hideout

[pseudo blaze]

I WAS DOING SO GOOD AND THE SERVER CRASHED

[unreal horizon]

tarkov be like that lol

[rose rock]

fkng mood

[neat nebula]

does getting kills as a scav give xp for my levels?

[unreal horizon]

no

[rose rock]

newp

otherwise i'd be way above 24 lmao

[willow pivot]

Yea same id be lvl 35 instead of 29

I just fuck around with scavs on reserve and hope for the best in killing raiders and pmc's

[rose rock]

scav
killing

[little herald]

Can anyone help me with the Delivery from the Past quest? Been struggling for 2 days to do it.

[rose rock]

nah man, let others do it for you

[rose rock]

whioch part you sturggling with? factory or customs?

[little herald]

Customs.

Extracted once ever

I've done around 15-20 raids trying to do this
