#

how do i get the unknown key for the extortionist quest

keen sluice
#

what tasks and its normal to lose money pre 10

keen sluice
crisp nest
#

near the truck that says welcome to tarkov

bold kernel
#

does it have the key and the document thingy

crisp nest
#

it has the key

tender tree
#

gimme one sec, pretty sure its all the starting quest but getting jeager

crisp nest
#

you use the key to unlock a room that has the document

bold kernel
#

Ohhh ok thanks

#

This quest is a pain when i dont spawn in the right direction

keen sluice
bold kernel
#

Wow thats a good map

keen sluice
#

u can save it if you want

tender tree
#

bro where can i see those for other maps

keen sluice
#

just search up mapname map tarkov

#

heres another useful one

bold kernel
#

Cool

crisp nest
#

mapgenie is ur friend

keen sluice
#

i personally hate mapgenie

crisp nest
#

i just use maps off reddit myself

keen sluice
#

its so cluttered and the map is too big to navigate without scrolling but its got tons of info

bold kernel
#

i dont have 2 monitors yet so i use laptop

#

for the map

crisp nest
#

thats fine i have to alt tab lol

keen sluice
#

yeah but then if you're gonna turn off the menus your better off using an easier to read and navigate map

ebon oar
#

what's everyone's favorite top clothing, mine is probably the USEC sandstone (even though im using the BEAR grizzly rn)

#

that tan jacket is too clean

weak sandal
#

i found an ash 12 what should I do with it?

crisp nest
#

what level are you

#

@weak sandal

weak sandal
#

#

its super geared out i don't feel like i deserve it lmao

crisp nest
#

send a pic?

weak sandal
crisp nest
#

you get the mags for it too?

#

@weak sandal

weak sandal
#

yes I did

crisp nest
#

use it

weak sandal
#

aight then

crisp nest
#

it kicks harder than most guns in the game

#

very damn hard

weak sandal
#

i noticed when i tried to kill some scavs lmao

crisp nest
#

just use singlefire and click decently fast

#

the ammo is very strong

drifting jolt
#

it's seemingly inaccurate at range though

uncut hazel
#

tommy gun is so trash i let out a entire clip on a guy with no armor and didnt kill him i have a hit count of 10

crisp nest
#

aim better

#

its a ppsh not a thompson

silver hornet
#

clip

crisp nest
#

oh

#

lmaooooo

shy coral
crisp nest
#

i do call it a clip sometimes by accident but i do at least understand the difference

silver hornet
#

confusing a PPSh-41 for a Thompson
saying clip instead of magazine
reee

silver hornet
#

it is my duty

crisp nest
#

it's like the people who hear vulgarities when someone speaks like japanese or chinese

silver hornet
#

this game does have 58 Russian guns in it lol

#

including all of the AK variants

crisp nest
#

he also couldve read his inventory but...

silver hornet
#

reading's too hard

crisp nest
#

true

toxic compass
#

somewhat new, but which of these armors would be better?

#

i see their both level 5, just one is ceramic with a lower durability, and one is armor steal with a higher durability

silver hornet
#

Defender 2 will last longer, Gzhel will break in a couple shots.

shut marsh
#

ceramic is harder to repair

bronze dragon
#

anyone have a spare mp-133 for a quest thx

shut marsh
#

and it’s all relative to if the bullets pen the armor or if the bullet gets absorbed

#

:)

toxic compass
#

got ya, i was planning on going woods, so mostly large calibers right? which would be better for that

shut marsh
#

i typically would travel a little lighter on woods

#

big open map

#

it’s not gonna save you from some of the massive calibers on woods, at least reliably

toxic compass
#

ahh i got ya, al damn facemasks are usefull, gone out on big runs then get head eyes with ps 5.45 lmao

shut marsh
#

yeah I mean

#

you pay for the shit to have a chance at protecting you, ppl forget that it’s all chance and it’s not guaranteed to save your life

#

HOWEVER I’ve had gear absolutely bail me out before

#

just the luck of the draw

toxic compass
#

yeah i get ya. also is there a good way to tell if something is a dead body or a player proned in a body? the other day i saw a bear hiding in a body, but i though it was a dead body on top of a scav then got blasted lol

uncut hazel
#

just got a cool looking bolt action off a player scav whats a good map to go sniping,i never sniped before

shut marsh
shut marsh
uncut hazel
#

I play customs alot but i never seem to find a nice area to sniper , and with the woods expansion i am a lost puppy with 1 eye ball

shut marsh
#

yeah I mean

toxic compass
#

i personally like shoreline to sniper, went with a mosin and came out with an mdr and an m4 lol.

shut marsh
#

yeah I mean big calibers like that can bring ya easy kills

uncut hazel
#

i havent played shoreline in 2 years

shut marsh
#

unlucky

uncut hazel
#

i got a VPO sniper

#

doesnt look the best but itll do maybe ill try interchange thanks anyway

frank forge
#

lmfao can someone group up with me and guide me idk what im doing

unreal horizon
#

Cam that profile pic is dope

shut marsh
#

lmao it’s me when I play sova

mighty imp
#

yo i heard you can make profit from buying a gun from mechanic and selling it back to him. please tell

unreal horizon
#

maybe some barter, to my knowledge you can't

#

or from flea or something

bronze dragon
#

anyone got a mp-133 for the quest

unreal horizon
#

you can buy them

#

flea market or jaeger 1

bronze dragon
#

im lvl 4

unreal horizon
#

pick up the introduction quest from mechanic and head to woods to unlock jaeger

bronze dragon
#

ight thx

bold kernel
silver hornet
#

ceramic > steel

#

real talk

bold kernel
#

what?!

drifting jolt
bold kernel
#

sooo its better?

drifting jolt
#

i dont know the logistics of it, but i do know it's a viable option IRL

bold kernel
#

to use that white armor

#

:0

#

and what about the combined material

drifting jolt
#

if you're not wearing at least level 4 armor dont even bother

bold kernel
silver hornet
#

The type of ceramic used to make armor is way different than the type used to make bowls plates and cups

bold kernel
#

oh

#

right

#

this game is suppose to be realistic right?

#

so the ceramic armor will be better?

silver hornet
#

no

#

well

bold kernel
#

:c

silver hornet
#

right now it's not good

bold kernel
#

FUCK

#

i have 3 of those

silver hornet
bold kernel
#

but if i wear it it will still do something atleast

#

i hope

silver hornet
#

yeah

bold kernel
#

what about the big black lvl5 armor

#

is good?

silver hornet
#

Korund?

bold kernel
#

uhhh

#

gm sec

silver hornet
#

Eh, Korunds are pretty ok for what they're priced at.

silver hornet

silver hornet
#

sand geode
#

oh ok well ig do that

silver hornet
sand geode

plush quest

unborn cloak

You can learn more if you play with someone else

plush quest
#

this wipe was half group half solo and way better

sleek orchid
#

Good day, how do you install on Mac

bold kernel
#

you gotta learn the game solo, if you play it with someone you count on them

plush quest

nvm you can

#

buy the game then download the launcher

bold kernel
#

well atleast i like the game solo

#

if u play it with someone my hearth is not racing

#

i dont have adrenaline

unborn cloak

Ye but it would be good for him to learn the small things while playing with someone

Please get me out of here

#

Wheres the nearest extract

small cairn
#

it is top right

#

but you need a red keycard

bold kernel
#

yeaa i sold mine, cant help you :/

small cairn
#

Now you can use that thicc case to hold more red keycards PrapKEK

bold kernel
#

yeaa!

#

but

#

how rare is that keycard?

unborn cloak
#

Not rare at all its got 100 percent change of spawning

bold kernel
#

fr?

#

so why does it cost 100mil :/

unborn cloak
#

Obligatory for me to say that was sarcasm

shell sable
unborn cloak
#

Imagine not finding 14 red keycards

bold kernel
#

like yea

#

imagine not finding one as a scav every run

#

but i got mine by scav run i was soo scared i will lose it :0

#

i once got 2 labs card as a scav

#

wow iam so lucky as a scav

Anyone wanna do a loot run on Interchange? Looking for 3 people who know that map and can show me and my cousin what to do

frail zealot
#

Looking for Long time player (since launch or relatively close) to come to me and my friends private discord to help us manage our stash, what to sell, what to keep, and to go to interchange with us for some crates. Prefer 20+ in age for maturity. (Not dissing teens, or young adults, just easier to find mature players in older ages.)

elfin trail
#

Why always the private discord?

frail zealot
#

Because channels fill fast.

#

And its only us two.

elfin trail
#

Hidden advertising? I bet you'd have a lot more luck if you'd just ask someone to hop in vc with you guys

frail zealot
#

Its not advertising.... Were literally just two gamers trying to get a pro for help. Nothing further.

flint beacon
#

Hey, would anyone be willing to show me around the game? Just got the game yesterday, kinda confused by everything.

ripe carbon
#

@flint beacon sure dm me

#

if anyone needs help just dm me

clear garnet
#

Sorry to bother yalls

#

But what scope is this?
It has thermals but its super clean

tulip whale
#

Reap-IR

clear garnet
#

Is it pricy

tulip whale
#

Yes

clear garnet
#

Oof

tulip whale
#

It often averages at around a million

clear garnet
#

Looks pretty nice for a rifle scope

#

But its usually good for long ranges

neat nebula
#

is there any way i can fix my frames on tarkov? i have a good pc that runs any other game well but in tarkov my frames freeze or drop suddenly

tulip whale
#

Well it only works up too 230 metres so not great for long range

clear garnet
#

Oh

#

So i guess its mid range

tulip whale
#

Yeah

clear garnet
#

Ima try bringing a canted sight

#

Thanks mate, Cheers

tulip whale

wanton gust
#

I assume this late in the wipe body armor is kinda useless?

teal owl
#

i mean

#

its not garuanteed to save you

#

its just a chance

wanton gust
#

Like it feels like I only run into M61 or Ingolgnick or however you spell it

#

I know that will pen me ye?

teal owl
#

M61 will 2 tap thorax any time so

#

well

#

rephrase that

#

Most of the time

small cairn
#

How much exp do you get for reloading a sniper?

teal owl
#

I dont run into m995 or Ignolnik that often

small cairn
#

is it 0,1? Or is it nerfed/reworked

small cairn
#

1-2 are useless

unborn cloak
#

I just did tarkov shooter and played normally with it hunting scavs

small cairn
#

4 u shouldnt buy nor use, unless you get it for free

unborn cloak
#

It will give you more sniper xp

small cairn
#

I just want lvl 7 sniper skill so I can do the guide xd

teal owl
small cairn
#

Atleast read the wiki if you are gonna link it like that

teal owl
#

what

#

you get 4 free levels from quests

small cairn
#

Nowhere does it say how much exp per round I get

#

and?

#

I still need lvl 5 before I get those "free" 4 lvls

#

so I do psycho sniper

teal owl
#

get to it

small cairn
#

man you must be suffering something different

teal owl
#

no you are just lazy

#

and cant read wiki

small cairn
#

where am I lazy

#

It says nothing on wiki

teal owl
#

yes

small cairn
#

and u havent read it yourself

#

where does it say the amount of exp I get per reload

#

pls do tell

#

then Ill admit Im wrong

teal owl
#

yes

small cairn
#

Go ahead

clear harbor
#

what's a good ammo for ppsh?

small cairn
clear harbor
#

so in that cast the rightmost one

small cairn
#

Yeah, or just not using the gun at all would probably be better

#

What were you planning to do?

clear harbor
#

i'm just doing budget interchange cache runs

small cairn
#

Just run around with an sks instead or something

clear harbor
#

why do you say that?

small cairn
#

its 20k for the gun

#

92/bullet for ps

#

and it will go through tier 3 gear

#

one sec

clear harbor
#

problem is i have to aim with that gun xD

small cairn
#

Ah yeah...if you aren't confident in your headshot aim on scavs etc

#

then it probably isn't for u

clear harbor
#

yeah i don't have first person shooter background

small cairn
#

but then again, if you are on a budget you need to compensate for the lack of a good gun/ammo

#

besides you are gonna need to get the muscle memory down sooner or later

#

so might aswell do it with cheap weapons rather than a 400k gun

clear harbor
#

true, prob should just spam factory and get the fighting straight

small cairn
#

I would probably do that, but only with scav runs

#

then do e.g. stash runs as pmc

clear harbor
#

fair enough

small cairn
#

that way you dont waste money on gear/heals each time

clear harbor
#

tough game for newbies

small cairn
#

Yeah it is very punishing, especially if u got no one to help you in the beginning

clear harbor
#

level/skill based matchmaking woulda helped ;-;

small cairn
#

Idk, it's more fun to meet a good player/bad player in intervals

rose rock
#

^

small cairn
#

if I constantly met one of the 2 the game wouldn't be fun for me

rose rock
#

makes you gotta fake it till you make it

#

like some sort of darwinism, but way condensed time wise since you can go again and again

clear harbor
#

just died 2 seconds from extracting i love tarkov

unborn cloak
#

Tarkoved

small cairn
#

Yeah, if the game doesn't feel like you are being punched in the dick, then you aren't playing tarkov xd

unborn cloak
#

You should feel pain and suffering while playing

rare osprey
small cairn
#

I mean compass isn't NEEDED so to say, but still nice to have it xd

#

or wait, you can just buy one, cant you? Thinking

pliant stag
#

whats the best 5.56x45 ammo?

small cairn
#

955, most will be using 5a1, due to it being cheap at skier 4 and it being the next best

#

and PK 3 I suppose

rare osprey
#

I bought a compass for 30k

cunning dragon
#

Is it a dead end quest? Nothing after it?

rare osprey
#

nope, nothing after it, and it's not a kappa quest

cunning dragon
#

hmm I spose... especially if you don't like woods, otherwise I would have thought you would complete it by accident

#

I did it by accident unlocking Jaeger

craggy sapphire
#

U JUST TRADED

#

WTF

#

It might have been a glitch

small cairn
#

Do I get the same amount of exp for reloading a sniper mag, as if I were to reload a single bullet into e.g. mosin?

celest sage
small cairn
#

To logical of an answer

#

I dont like it xd

#

jokes aside I probably just should...

cunning dragon
#

More I just don't know and I wanna know too 😆

small cairn
#

xDD

#

aight Ill check it out after my mag reloading spam

#

maybe 15 min from now

unreal horizon
#

try reloading each 20 times or so, i'm curious now

craggy sapphire
#

No

small cairn
#

The pressure is real xd

#

also Idk if this is a feature or a bug (most likely the latter one)

#

if you shine a laser through thin tents

#

it goes through it

#

but shows a red dot on the surface

#

e.g. enemy outside

#

shines towards you

#

you will see a red dot on the tent

unreal horizon
#

lol flashlights already go through walls

small cairn
#

Just happened to me

#

thought he was right

#

but he was actually left

reef prairie
#

probably a feature

small cairn
#

like as if he was pointing from right to left

#

instead it just showed both

#

lemme try to paint it

unreal horizon
#

like on the inner wall but bright?

small cairn
#

if it doesnt make sense

unreal horizon
#

lets say for example he was shining from the right

small cairn
#

So this is what I see

#

enemy outside

#

I notice the dot to the left

#

and expect him to be outside from the right

cunning dragon
#

dats one thicc boi huntin a rat

small cairn
#

but as I looked closer

#

I see 2 dots

#

one left and top right

#

note there is no laser line

#

just 2 dots

#

and IDk if the dot on the left is a feature or not

unreal horizon
#

huh

small cairn
#

I would understand if there was literally a laser going through

#

and it having no dot

#

but there was one and no laser line

#

Feels buggy to me Idk

#

and no there was only 1 guy

#

not 2 :p

unreal horizon
#

that's odd i've never ran into that

small cairn
#

Yeah I just thought I should say that while I just saw it xd

#

cuz im 1000% gonna forget it

#

also a minor thing

#

or well not in this case

#

but s till

spiral vapor
#

anybody willing to help a total noob?

small cairn
#

with? Also what region

spiral vapor
#

just trying to get stuff done and not constantly die, US

#

down to 26k rubles and can't survive a raid to save my life...

small cairn
#

If you arent already, then ofc do scav runs, and apart from that...Do you know any maps? E.g. extracts, loot routes maybe even PMC spawns?

spiral vapor
#

I look at maps, no loot routes known, nope to PMC spawns

#

do scav runs as much as I can, if I can survive them... which is rare

small cairn
#

I mean I want to help you, but I only know loot routes for reserve xd

cunning dragon
#

I was like that too at the start got to the point where I wished that I could do scav runs back to back, but after watching Pestily Raid series everything seemed to click a lot more

small cairn
#

but I can suggest looking up youtube vids about hidden stashes on e.g. interchange

spiral vapor
#

I've watched so many YT videos

#

not specifically on hidden stashes

small cairn
#

The thing about interchange, is that there is an extract if you just hug the outside wall

cunning dragon
#

I still get lost and still die but at least I kinda know where I am, pathing for less risk and a bit more confidence to take on a fight if I have to

spiral vapor
#

Interchange scares me

small cairn
#

and the chads on interchange go for the main building, so you will rarely see people run outside

#

other than ofc other stash runners

spiral vapor
#

because of so many people running it for graphicws

small cairn
#

yeah

#

but that is in the middle of the map

#

they dont roam near the edges

#

aslong as you dont go into the mall, then it is relativly safe tbh

spiral vapor
#

I can try that

#

no quests for interchange right now, woods and customs

unreal horizon
#

interchange is way more intimidating then it should be, the first few mins are chaotic but if you stay quiet you'll be fine

spiral vapor
#

ok

unreal horizon
#

vast majority of people will run straight inside, leaving you to caches and stuff

spiral vapor
#

I'll give that a shot, I need to survive a scav run to get a weapon to use first

cunning dragon
#

I really like Shoreline, theres so many stashes and so many small towns to loot and you will only ever run into other scavs or other low level players as chads beeline to resort

spiral vapor
#

currently my Grach won't cut it I don't think

small cairn
#

It should

cunning dragon
#

Grach is fantastic, aim for face

small cairn
#

the only thing you are gonna fend of are scavs

sometimes you WILL have bad luck and run into an Altyn chad, not very often, you are aiming to survive at least 30% of the time if you can. Death is normal. If you run into another pistol runner at least you got a 50/50 chance... more if you can catch them by surprise

unreal horizon
#

in game graphic settings that brighten, saturate, sharpen, whatever you want

cosmic tinsel
#

also turn off all the film grain nonsense

unreal horizon
#

i'd uncheck all the boxes in graphics, unless high qual colour if you'd like

cunning dragon
#

and also just remember a lot of quests don't require you to survive. Just run there naked with your gun get ur quest done, kill a couple of scavs, whatever happens after that it is a successful raid

spiral vapor
#

well there goes another life to somebody I didn't even see, one hit dead

Noob question : Do i need to switch graphics to lower just so the grass and other things dissapear for a better view of the opponent or does everyone play on decent settings and keep the grass/environment bits?

I don't think it's that big an advantage

Alright, thanks. I was just wondering since i used to play a bit of war thunder and downgrading graphics to remove the grass lets you snipe across maps.

That's one of those things where I balance up the advantage vs the experience and usually I choose the experience. I want my games max graphics 4k for maximum immersion

yeah thanks, im on this golden zibbo quest atm, is there anyway to avoid all the dorms "action" like do i get in and out and hope for a quick spawn or AFK for 20 minutes and go in after that?

reef prairie
#

going in late is better

#

dorms can be a warzone within 1:30 minutes

chrome nova
#

zibbo is like in the second room on the right from the metal stairs, very easy grab and go

deft dust
#

will try late i think, shame though i have an unused marked key lol

chrome nova
#

night time is the best, like 20 min into the raid, but no guarantees, you know

cunning dragon
#

I think the best time is a little after start but before player scavs start spawning in because they will head there too

reef prairie
#

i thought player scavs spawn very late now on customs?

cunning dragon
#

if you aren't trying to do a quest then you got nothing to lose yoloing straight in there with the marked key

reef prairie
#

i did a few scav runs and i always spawned with around 10 minutes left

chrome nova
#

it is unpredictable, sometimes I come to dorms at the end of the raid and marked room still unlooted, happened many times

is there any advice about what to save and what to sell at low level? I feel like I just fill my stash with junk because I have no idea what I should be selling to traders or what to sell on fleamarket

chrome nova
#

earn money and buy what you need on flea, save only rare quest items

spiral vapor
#

I've seen the photos, it's just a LOT to look through each item and figure out if I should be saving or selling

#

and what to sell to traders vs fleamarket

cosmic tinsel
#

this was easier for me to mentally parse

#

than the photos

strong barn
chrome nova
#

not a lot, actually

cosmic tinsel
#

at the end of the day, selling to flea is USUALLY better than selling to traders, but selling to traders is required for levelling them up

#

the big concern is keeping the FiR items you need for quests

#

its a pain in the butt, but the more time you're willing to invest, the easier your life will be in the long term. if you cant be bothered, that's fine too, you just may end up grinding some items

#

For Delivery from the past, grabbing the document shouldn't be too much of an issue, once you have it you can go to Character -> Tasks and move the doc from online raid folder to offline raid folder, that way you don't take it into next raid

#

and you don't do the factory bit until your ready, then use the dicsord server here to go to factory LFG, and get a 5 man

finite kettle
#

ooooh

#

thats going to help

viral prawn
#

so there are no other PMC's for when you place the document

#

So basically your items, unless handing in quests instantly

#

go back "Into" raid with you

#

so gotta move them from in raid quest inventory

#

to out of raid quest inventory

#

until your ready to go

#

but either way factory quests suck the big one

#

and i'd reccomend doing them on this discord server with a 5 man

#

so you don't get capped 3 seconds off spawn in red hallway

#

For the other quest, pharmaist, i think that's dorm 114, i don't recall off the top of my head, but honestly its worth watching youtube video's

#

of all the quest item locations, so you know exactly in the room where to grab, n run

#

so your not fucking about in a danger zone for a really long time

#

Dorms is a hotzone, so unless your going to fuck

#

in and out is the way

just wait like 10mins

then go dorms

If you are the last person in a raid or you do not being enough gear, the scavs will lock onto your location and hunt u

winter plume
#

Blocked? Hard drives don't get blocked. IP's get blocked as its a network connection to the server.

eternal canopy
#

4.3.4 the reason for blocking and I do not even know what it is

winter plume
#

nvm misread. Account is blocked. I would message support and present your case.

eternal canopy
#

thanks ❤️

ivory ether
#

is the glock 17 a decent pistol to run?

#

like interchange/factory

upper tapir
#

couldve been cheats or suspicious software on the harddrive

#

if you didnt format it completely before installing it

#

account sharing is also bannable

#

so thats what it could be

#

or your friend couldve cheated and now your computer is also HWID banned since he tried to logon to yours

winter plume
#

^^ also if you didn't format a hard drive you bought from ebay that isn't brand new... I would suggest doing so

upper tapir
#

yup

#

all sorts of keyloggers or viruses that could be on there

eternal canopy
#

I bought an ssd 970 evo plus for $ 128 as the seller said it was completely clean( I bought it for games

upper tapir
#

did you format it or not?

winter plume
#

Windows or OS already loaded?

upper tapir
#

if so lookup how to format, if the OS is on it make sure you install windows iso onto a flash drive so you can reinstall the OS when you format

eternal canopy
#

Okay, I'll do the formatting, but my friend's account is blocked:( and I feel guilty about this, he wanted to help test the game's loading skill, and eventually lost his account

Can confirm. Reserve can be rough but rewarding. Keys are ideal for reserve. I've been seeing people not hit marked room lately.
