beginners-assistance

[crisp nest]

crosshair

on labs dont use that

you will get shit on

[ruby swift]

take the frontsight off

[ivory ether]

yeah i know i was just going offline mode to see what labs was like lul

[cosmic tinsel]

its pretty rad

[naive depot]

it's scary

love it

[cosmic tinsel]

that too

[ivory ether]

so how do i activate raiders on here

[cosmic tinsel]

two garages, there are overlooking offices in each

[naive depot]

pretty much turn on any extract

[ivory ether]

oh

[cosmic tinsel]

inside those offices should be little devices with a microphone on it, and when you approach they have about a 50% chance each of saying "open garage" or something

[ivory ether]

i just got styled on by 2 ai's

idk

[cosmic tinsel]

otherwise raiders usually spawn around 12 min in

[ivory ether]

i think i was in some sort of cafeteria

[cosmic tinsel]

coulda been, yeah

theres a food service area near red room

[bold kernel]

hey, if anyone wants to play for a bit with a noob just ping me or DM

[ivory ether]

wait so how do i take off the front sight off the sv98

[unreal horizon]

you can't

[bold kernel]

What stops heavy bleeding

[ivory ether]

ah

[cosmic tinsel]

tourniquet, hemostatic injector

salewa, ifak, afak

grizzly

[ivory ether]

ifak is a good one

[bold kernel]

I got shot almost died then killed 3 scavs and bleed ou5

[unreal horizon]

^ You really shouldn't use any of these but if you're in a pinch, do it

[cosmic tinsel]

its p bad for heavy bleeding

afaks are fine

salewas are fine too actually

[ivory ether]

ah, isnt it only like 30hp per heavy bleed tho

i dont really remember

[cosmic tinsel]

it eats the whole ifak basically

[bold kernel]

All my limbs where red

[ivory ether]

oh wait, 30hp is for light bleed nvm

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, i bring hemostat into every raid

[bold kernel]

I was on a scav

[ivory ether]

oh 210hp for ifak heavy bleeds

[cosmic tinsel]

well you're SOL then

[ivory ether]

yikes

[cosmic tinsel]

ya

[bold kernel]

Yea I was

I killed on pmc atleast

[sweet rock]

Does anyone know how much a TAC 30 is worth?

[unreal vortex]

hemostats use fast too and are cheap cheap

[ivory ether]

the scope?

[sweet rock]

Yes

[ivory ether]

30k

[bold kernel]

30k for tac 30 according to this app

[sweet rock]

Ok, thank you

[ivory ether]

wtf lol, this is the 3rd scav in the row where i have the exact same gun, mags, and ammo

saiga 9, 20 round mags, gt

[twilit lily]

holy hell I did it

I MP7'd a guy who had a crazy ADAR

...and forgot to pick it up

Shit

uh.... free AK-74 I guess?

that's weird. that set up is totally a scav set up. but its not FIR. Did this guy bring in a Scav AK into Factory?

[unreal horizon]

scav roleplay

[cosmic tinsel]

i dont think the vpg comes on scav aks

[twilit lily]

guy had a "meta" Adar and this

[cosmic tinsel]

but i could be making shit up

[ivory ether]

how do you get the custom name on that mp7 lol

[twilit lily]

The fact i forgot the pick up the Meta ADAR pisses me off, since those parts are good

that's the preset name

[cosmic tinsel]

edit preset menu

[ivory ether]

oh

[twilit lily]

I legit just saved the Preset of it with a Kobra and laser as "Factory Fuck Fest 2"

I also have 2.5 for an MP7A2 with grip, Fuck Fest 1 as an MP5, and Fuck Fest 3 as a P90

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah well, i have a saiga 12 named saiga so

thats pretty neat

[twilit lily]

and since you can't put a . in the name, i had to name it "Factory Fuck Fest 2 and a Half"

either way, that MF tried killing me with PS

thank god the rat rig can take a hit

[ivory ether]

so mp7a1 is cheaper and has better stats than a2?

thats what i saw on flea idk

[cosmic tinsel]

a2 takes a foregrip

[twilit lily]

and since theres 3 dead PMCs with all their guns up in office, they're so losing it

[ivory ether]

oh

[cosmic tinsel]

ends up with better stats, and thats why it costs more

[twilit lily]

A2 can be further modified to be better, they both share the same base stats so the foregrip is free add ons

but its so small it doesn't really matter

[ivory ether]

oh alright

[bold kernel]

How do you get a bigger pouch

[cosmic tinsel]

quests!

[unreal vortex]

quest

[cosmic tinsel]

or buy a better version of tarkov if you wanna p2w

[bold kernel]

I bought the lowest version lol

[cosmic tinsel]

the biggest container is gameplay only

[bold kernel]

Can you upgrade your version or do you need to make a new account

[cerulean spruce]

Why hasn't anybody realized that the Saiga barter from Jaeger level 3 is an insanely cheap way to get a flir....

[twilit lily]

AY

[cosmic tinsel]

you can upgrade

[twilit lily]

LEVEL 33

[ivory ether]

lol i just killed a player scav and disconnected

pog

[unreal vortex]

ya half price flir its great

[cold narwhal]

hey

[twilit lily]

CUZ TURNS OUT THAT QUEST LEADS TO A FREE QUEST FOR VITALITY

[unreal horizon]

shut up thats secret

[bold kernel]

I may upgrade after next wipe and get really into tarkov

[cold narwhal]

can someone teach me to scav run?

[twilit lily]

...

[bold kernel]

Run loot run exfil

[unreal horizon]

step 1 loot, step 2 scoot

[twilit lily]

fuck you

i legit did this already

for your damn sniper quest

[bold kernel]

Anyone available for teaching a straight noob?

[unreal vortex]

What do you need help with? everything?

[bold kernel]

Everything other than basic controls, yes

[long gate]

make that 2 noobs if youre cool with is lmao

[swift rose]

wanna make it 3? XD

[cold narwhal]

can someone teach me how to scav run in reserve?

[cosmic tinsel]

the hardest part of scav running reserve is blocking off enough time in your evening to wait for queue 😉

[unreal vortex]

my best advice for someone completely new to the game is to watch a vid of a map walkthrough and follow online in an offline raid

I could help with specific maps if you have questions, though

[unreal vortex]

scav in hit button farm raiders get out = profit

[long gate]

anyone down to run customs? low lvl and still learning but if anyone is down lmk

[bold kernel]

ill run it, anyone else up for it?

[cerulean spruce]

I got a red rebel
I did it!

[long gate]

@bold kernel lets get a squad going lmao

[unreal horizon]

Congrats man!

[bold kernel]

Scav run time

Where does that drop from

[barren oasis]

THT EZ

[ivory ether]

does anyone buy the bayonet

[barren oasis]

jeager '

[ivory ether]

oh ok ty

[barren oasis]

np

[jolly lily]

For the quest to kill pmc and use balaclava and scav vest what's the best gun to use with small mags that fit in the scav vest

[barren oasis]

hunter

is a good

[jolly lily]

K ty

[fluid kraken]

anyone want to play, i can play interchange or customs, i just need some assistance. i am looking to get some tips for pvp because i keep dying lol (im lvl 12 NA)

[ivory ether]

does the tool set need to be fir for the farming quest

[unreal horizon]

it does not

[ivory ether]

nice

[naive depot]

put them in your secure container and you can make planting them very easy

[bold kernel]

Rip my m4ai

[naive depot]

shit happens bro

[bold kernel]

Yea I just never see the person I'm dying to lol

[naive depot]

you'll get used to that

knowing what angles you need to be checking at any point on a map is a skill you'll develop

[ebon oar]

can you die after planting prapor's case for delivery from the past

[naive depot]

you must extract

[ebon oar]

i thought they changed it

[naive depot]

better to be safe than sorry?

is this for delivery from the past?

[ivory ether]

i dont think you need to extract for it

[ebon oar]

yes

[ivory ether]

havent done it yet, but i heard in a video or something

[naive depot]

you don't have to extract same raid according to the wiki

[ivory ether]

or the wiki

[ebon oar]

honestly i read the wiki page and it said you can die after but i want to be extra careful

[unreal horizon]

You need a successful extract but not needed in the same raid

[ebon oar]

k

[naive depot]

so just join a 5 man factory raid

ez mode

5 pmcs day time 6 night time

[ebon oar]

im trying to get that done in 1 go along with farming

[naive depot]

factory 5 man then

[ebon oar]

nah im trying to do everything solo, more of a challenge

[naive depot]

sounds good

didn't know how desperate you were

[ebon oar]

i'll manage

just roll the dice for a quiet (relatively) factory raid and hopefully no one blows my head off

[naive depot]

i did it last wipe on night factory with no flashlight or night vision lol

[ebon oar]

yeh im looking to do it on night

just wait for gunfire and make a dash to the suicide box

[naive depot]

you only have to plant for like 10 secs now

[ebon oar]

i can only imagine early-wipe-30-second-have-to-extract-and-survive DFTP

[crisp nest]

20 secs

[naive depot]

oh mine was fine everyone else was killing each other at office

[ebon oar]

lel

[fluid kraken]

its 10 seconds now i did it the other day

[crisp nest]

farming?

it was 20s when i did this wipe istg

[bold kernel]

anyone wanna do some runs?

[ivory ether]

fuuuck i just found a tetriz and died

welp

that kinda sucks

[bold kernel]

unlucky :/

[ivory ether]

also killed a guy who had ks23 shrap 10

interchange is a bitch sometimes

[bold kernel]

yeah it can be

[ivory ether]

i dont really know how it works but how much is a btc worth rn

cause i found a tetriz on some player scav

died with it tho

[unreal horizon]

like 320k a few hours ago

[pure mist]

I sold mine about 350 about 8hrs ago

[shrewd estuary]

ok I have no idea what to do

today has been a bad day in tarkov

[bold kernel]

Log off? Idk

[ivory ether]

im a fucking idiot, forgot to bring 3k roubles for bridge extract when i spawned right next to it and village

[bold kernel]

I never bring roubles with me lol

[naive depot]

i always have ~30-50k in my docs/sicc

just in case

[ivory ether]

is there anywhere i can find cash at village

[bold kernel]

Safes

[ivory ether]

is that in village

[bold kernel]

Idk

[unreal horizon]

you can check jackets, it's not likely tho

no safes at village

[ivory ether]

oof

i found 2 sugars and a pack of 7n39 ammo lol

[unreal horizon]

only safe on woods is at sawmill

[ivory ether]

damn

[bold kernel]

Is 7n39 any good

[ivory ether]

yes

[unreal horizon]

yes best 545 ammo

it'll butter any armor

[bold kernel]

Nice

[crisp nest]

only 70k

[crisp nest]

same i learned my lesson once and now ill never forget

[unreal horizon]

flesh dmg is sorta crap though, 37 dmg means 3 thorax to kill

[bold kernel]

Oof

[naive depot]

5.45 bs is better

flesh damage

[unreal horizon]

true

[naive depot]

fragmentation chance

[unreal horizon]

bs is a better bullet, igolnik has more pen

[naive depot]

17% vs 2%

worth

much better than eagle neck

[unreal horizon]

best gun is chad DVL with no stock

[naive depot]

wish you could shoot guns with no barrel

[unreal horizon]

that would be dope

[silver hornet]

Kalashnikov proved you can do it with an AK

[bold kernel]

People always ratting

[ivory ether]

ok i made it to outskirts

that was scary

fucking hell, got ambushed by like 4 scavs lul

[naive jacinth]

yo anybody wanna watch me do a raid

i just got the game and have no clue what im doing

[barren oasis]

I gotcha

[ivory ether]

if i eat/drink offraid, will i still be leveling metabolism

or is it in raid only

[wary stone]

raid only

[ivory ether]

ok

if i reach a certain amount of flea market rep, will i have more trades available at once

[unreal horizon]

yes, at 10.0 you unlock a 4th slot

[ivory ether]

oh shit

nice

[unreal horizon]

then a 5th at 30

[heavy river]

Any groups helping out newbies?

[bold kernel]

Spawn In with do other scavs head shot one and I take a shotgun shell to the gut and I'm just suffer the whole time till I bleed out

[ivory ether]

what map

if it was interchange there are some med vans on the left side of the map that sometimes have some meds in there

[bold kernel]

I was on customs I got some meds but couldn't stop the bleeding

[ivory ether]

ah

[bold kernel]

Yea

e

[naive depot]

too bad you can't cut up your scav clothes and makeshift a bandage

go streaking across interchange with a gpu between your cheeks

[bold kernel]

And a suppressor on your dick

[crude rain]

Anyone know the prices on tank battery?

[plush quest]

220k

@crude rain

[crude rain]

sheesh okay thanks

[quaint trellis]

anyone on

[agile tundra]

ye

[ebon oar]

how much were tetriz' at their peak

[agile tundra]

like 500k

i think

[ebon oar]

my disappointment prying one off the hands of a dead player scav only to find that they were 75k was immeasurable

[agile tundra]

yeh game is geting a wipe soon thats why everything is going down

Anyone needs any help on EU let me know

[wheat tiger]

what should i do level 1

[agile tundra]

play the game

[plush quest]

800k-1m

[plush quest]

tetriz went down cause bsg nerfed bitcoin

[agile tundra]

everything is going down

[silver hornet]

that's because bitcoin is going down

[plush quest]

yes

not because there might be a wipe soon

[agile tundra]

there will be a whipe soon tho

[silver hornet]

says who?

[twilit lily]

So uh, I had a run in reserve where I through I got attacked by a player scav

[plush quest]

did they confirm it?

bsg

[twilit lily]

Might might might

[drifting jolt]

practice so youre not a bumbling fish out of water starting next wipe

[twilit lily]

Unless they say it, stop spreading it

[silver hornet]

as far as I know BSG has said nothing regarding when next wipe will come.

[drifting jolt]

^

[crisp nest]

no its not wiping any time soon

deflation of btc

[agile tundra]

bsg nikita himself one said no wipe and he droped it the next day bruh

[drifting jolt]

before mid summer it'll wipe, that's my guess

june

[silver hornet]

June/July is my guess

[twilit lily]

It hasn't even been a full wipe length yet right?

[drifting jolt]

they'll want to sell more games to summer kids/teens/whatever...

[plush quest]

no nightime yet cant run reapir

cringe

[drifting jolt]

5 months 3 days ago

[silver hornet]

you'll likely have better luck going to #community-support

[naive depot]

nope

[agile tundra]

anyone EU needs help let me know

[bold kernel]

Looking For Someone to Play With

[ornate zealot]

Is anyone else getting hit by like 3-4 bullets from a scav, when they only shoot 1?

I had a full hp korund and suddenly died to bt rounds - 1 shot, registered as 4

[unreal vortex]

fragmentation maybe

[plush quest]

fragmentation would count as 2 not 4

[sterile vessel]

i am, its so aids, for me its mainly ak scavs or adar scavs

[ivory ether]

woo, med case secured

ez

[zinc fiber]

if anyone needs a guide, quest help, or just want to learn the game cause you're new DM me, ill be glad to help! currently only able to help NA due to ping

[rough comet]

i just dmed you

[ivory ether]

i should buy another ammo case as well, too much ammo too little space

[drifting jolt]

i have 11 i think

[ivory ether]

woah

[drifting jolt]

@ivory ether

[ivory ether]

thats a pretty thicc case

[rough comet]

very, thicc

[drifting jolt]

weapons cases > thicc weapons cases

[rough comet]

very thicc case

[spark plover]

I like that weapons cases will go in thicc items. So much better.

[drifting jolt]

93 weapons in those cases lol

[cinder hound]

Lol another example of shit ammo

https://youtu.be/8wQikipu0nQ

Reminder game is 90% ammo

Not the gun

[bold kernel]

My god.

Okay, well. https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics All for you new players. I'm new as well. This is quite helpful. Although I didn't know it's actually that bad as seen over the video. 🤔

yup that's a holy bible of rounds everyone should have it bookmarked

[light scarab]

idk if this is the right chat for this, but does anyone have any advise on making my computer not crash upon loading in when I play anything except shoreline or factory

[naive depot]

how much ram do you have

[light scarab]

16gb

[naive depot]

do you have firefox or chrome open by coincidence? it sounds like you're running out of memory or need to do an integrity check from the launcher

[light scarab]

occasionally I do and I have noticed that makes it crash more, but even after I close it it still crashes pretty often.

[bold kernel]

is ram auto cleaner on?

in game settings

[light scarab]

probably not, in the tarkov game settings?

[bold kernel]

ye

[light scarab]

checking it out rn. I don't know how good 16gb is, but the only thing I usually have open when I play tarkov is a discord call

[bold kernel]

16gb should be enough, I have 16

[ivory ether]

yo does anyone know why my game stops responding for 10 seconds like 40% of the time when i alt tab

its kinda annoying since i dont have 2 monitors

[light scarab]

It was not on, will turning it on help?

[bold kernel]

try it

[light scarab]

kk, now I just need someone to play with once my roommate goes to work.

prolly in an hour or so ~w~

[bold kernel]

what's your lv?

[light scarab]

14

[bold kernel]

same here, I can do some runs

[light scarab]

what maps do you know well?

[bold kernel]

dm me

[native hinge]

@ivory ether Try running it on Borderless

Full screen does that to ur screen

[ivory ether]

i am

[native hinge]

then right click eft.exe and disable/enable full screen optimization is all i can think of

[bold kernel]

oh and try to turn on/off MiP Streaming

that has to do something with RAM right?

[sterile vessel]

its prolly his cpu if anything

[bold kernel]

oh maybe

[honest matrix]

can u complete tasks with a scav?

[naive depot]

nope but you can pick up quest items

[honest matrix]

like can i get mp133 shotguns on my scav?

and turn them into therapist for a quest?

[naive depot]

you can buy them from jaeger

but yeah you can

[unborn cloak]

Try putting the game on windowed full screen

[bold kernel]

how bout i give you gp card irl and you give me gp card in game?

[unborn cloak]

Deal

[honest matrix]

should I insure my rig

[bold kernel]

:)

[unborn cloak]

Now gib 3090

[bold kernel]

woah woah

chill

860

take it or leave it

[unborn cloak]

Na you never specified

[naive depot]

860 is a mobile gpu don't do it

[unborn cloak]

You owe me a 3090 or I report for scamming

[bold kernel]

wat

[unborn cloak]

Say he scam in real money trade

Then they ban you for scamming in real money trade

[bold kernel]

:0

[honest matrix]

should i insure my rig

[bold kernel]

fuck

[unborn cloak]

Insure everything

[naive depot]

ye

[honest matrix]

why everything

[unborn cloak]

Except docs case etc

Because if your low level you'll get it all back anyway

Nobody wants a zhuk 3 or paca

[honest matrix]

yeah im lvl 4

[bold kernel]

i insure only amour and mags and weapons

bruh dont even use paca

its like

being fat

it only gives you extra kg

for nothing

[naive depot]

saves you from getting one shot by a scav in the chest

[bold kernel]

well

[honest matrix]

good for svacs

ok so whats the best way to quest

[bold kernel]

still wouldnt buy it

[naive depot]

Anime Avatar

man paca has saved my ass before lol

they're so cheap it's just like w/e

you'll get it back guaranteed to use again

but might as well buy a lemon rig

[bold kernel]

uhh

lemon rig?

[naive depot]

6b3tm

[bold kernel]

yea

yea

i love that rig

[naive depot]

just realized it has stomach coverage

[bold kernel]

[naive depot]

this is my third wipe

🤦‍♂️

[bold kernel]

2nd

[hallow hound]

anyone wanna help me with the jaeger camp quest?

[naive depot]

i am not good at woods

[dense gyro]

i always forget about the fast reload

[royal bloom]

I was just shiting my pants cause I was getting rushed and was spamming R to reload 😄

perhaps that's what happened

[cerulean spruce]

Does Flir have less hertz than Reapir?

[hardy marsh]

I think it does have less

[dense dock]

[cloud kestrel]

:D

[bold kernel]

what is ur k/s rate?

[cloud kestrel]

Ive played a lot of shooters such as deadside, squad, and r6

[cloud kestrel]

1.6 or something, mostly scavs though

[cloud kestrel]

I killed a dude running a decent M4 on woods on that same run yesterday running m855

[bold kernel]

wtf

what backpack r u using ???!!!!

[cloud kestrel]

No idea, it was on his body

[bold kernel]

i started using better backpacks when i was lvl 22 and now iam lvl 24 ???!!!

[cloud kestrel]

dang

[cloud kestrel]

the dude I killed was lvl 39

[cloud kestrel]

I killed him up close with my mosin

[cloud kestrel]

I was doing jaegers scav kills with no armor

[bold kernel]

well today i killed a lvl 15 probably fw :c i feel bad he wasnt very good and i one tapped him as a scav

iam sooo sad when i kill low lvl

[cloud kestrel]

how do ya check if u killed a player scav? isnt there like a red triangle next to their name?

[bold kernel]

after u finish raid

you got the win screen

[cloud kestrel]

ok

[bold kernel]

or if he had a dogtag its clearly a pmc

oh wait

[cloud kestrel]

yeah

[cloud kestrel]

pmc also dont look poor

[bold kernel]

you mean like player scav like guy who is playing as a scav?

ohh yea you cant check that

[cloud kestrel]

Yeah, when you kill a player scav

[cloud kestrel]

mk

[bold kernel]

just you can tell it from his movement if he had loot and stuff like that

[cloud kestrel]

Yeah thats how I've differentiated it

[bold kernel]

do you kill NPC scavs on sight?

[cloud kestrel]

sometimes but if it's not necessary I won't normally I do it though, but not when I play as a scav

[bold kernel]

mmhh goood

[cloud kestrel]

I think I'm going to jump into woods an get this last scav kill for my boy Jaeger

[bold kernel]

but watch out, NPC scavs can loot too they wont have full backpack but they may have second weapon and couple of items

[cloud kestrel]

Ok

[coral tiger]

7 mins for players in shoreline wtf is this 😂

[inner pasture]

Hey, started playing a week ago, i play mostly customs and rarely woods, which map should i learn next? Ty!

[rose ruin]

I've been just doing interchange a lot. There can be big fights but if you RAT like me you can get out 90% of the time. Though a lot swear by reserve for rating instead.

[inner pasture]

Nice, thanks!

[flat peak]

@rose ruin where do you go in interchange, I've mainly just been hanging around Oli but are there any other good spots to pick up loot and maybe fight a bit

[hazy heath]

The entire right side of the mall if your looking at the mall from the outside, Several teck spawns and scav boss, just venture more into the mall from oli and you will find pvp

[flat peak]

thanks

[rugged yacht]

interchange

learn a money run

[manic viper]

lvl 5 pmc need help inv me

[hot steeple]

could someone pls join customs 6 im solo running customs for a task and idrk where to go

[vagrant oak]

Does any quest give me a magbox?

[unreal horizon]

I don't think so

[vagrant oak]

Dang

[vagrant oak]

What would be the best way to get one?

[unreal horizon]

you can craft in lavatory, i'd just buy them tbh

[vagrant oak]

Ok thanks

[tight lake]

hi, i'm quite new to the game (lvl 6) and need someone to help me understand how to play this game

[sick lantern]

First Wipe lvl-14 have basic knowledge just need to learn still
(EU)

[normal basalt]

i'm new to the game ( lvl 6) and need someone to help me understand the map

[unique marsh]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov

try #pvp-lfg

[ivory ether]

lol i found a good way to level pk, farm like 3-4k dollars and just keep buying and reselling m9's from him

idk if thats efficient but yeah

[pure mist]

for someone like me who likes m1a i just mod m1a with pk and use it in raid

[bold kernel]

fuck this game

why do i always get teamed

i cant win 1v3 >:(

[unreal horizon]

gotta be constantly rotating and grenading

I mean 1v3's shouldn't happen even if you're the same skill, don't get too beat up over it

[rugged yacht]

1v3 is easy you gotta just make them panic

easier to make a 3 man panic than a solo

[bold kernel]

yea but i was the one panicking

1 leg down

fucking grenade air strike

and constant chasing

[rugged yacht]

1v3's in this game are similiar to CSGO you gotta play for picks

[bold kernel]

csgo is different

you just 1 2 3 shots 3 kills

with a ak

[unreal horizon]

don't try to fight everyone at once, isolate 3 1v1s

[bold kernel]

yea but they got around me

[unreal horizon]

which to be fair, is much easier said than done

[bold kernel]

yeaaa thats how you win most 1v3 fights

one by one

or a nade yea

going night raid do i miss something ???

[unreal horizon]

if you don't already, toss a stack of bullets in your container

[bold kernel]

oh right

[unreal horizon]

personally I'm not comfortable with 90 bullets

[bold kernel]

what?

thats a stack and a half

thats alot of ammo

[unreal horizon]

I mean the stuff you have on you

[bold kernel]

oh

[unreal horizon]

yeah but might as well have reserves

[bold kernel]

so you dont like my loadout?

[unreal horizon]

nah no problem with it, looks good

[bold kernel]

oh ok

just asking if i could improve it somehow

[unreal horizon]

maybe bring a few more nades, depends what you plan on doing though

[bold kernel]

can i ask to play with ppl in this channel?

yea

[bold kernel]

iam doing a quest

chemical p1

[unreal horizon]

you're probably fine then

that's the train car right?

[bold kernel]

yea

its really close to zbh12

[ivory ether]

so vector and its ammo can be bought from higher level skier right

nvm

yeah

[unreal horizon]

vector from skier, ammo from peacekeeper

[ivory ether]

ah gotcha

[unreal horizon]

well the high pen variants at least, you can get .45 rip from mechanic

[ivory ether]

oh ok

[unique marsh]

.45 vector slaps

[unreal horizon]

I love it

[vale timber]

does my fov matter in this game or is it personal preference?

[unreal horizon]

preferance

it's vertical though, 59 in this game is 90 in most other games

[rugged yacht]

i use 70 FOV

i feel slow if i have below 70

[vale timber]

I just keep dying to people I cant see. A video said that 59 was good but I just dont understand

[unreal horizon]

59 would only beneficial if you have nutty aim and are used to flicking on it

for the average person i'd say max is better, but again, preferance

[strong barn]

happen to have windows virtual audio or surround sound on? make sure they are OFF

[rugged yacht]

try 70

[strong barn]

this wont affect what your seeing but it can help pinpoint which direction to look 🤷

[vale timber]

Yeah I don't have them enabled

[strong barn]

Excellent
Weird tip Id give a new person who is struggling to see the enemies is --
it might sound stupid; but move your mouse more frequently. Have your head on a swivel in tarkov; the only time your mouse should be stationary is after you hear someone or see someone. Tarkov requires a lot of you as a player.

[rugged yacht]

or mute your headset and wear an tlyn

altyn

[strong barn]

kekw 🤣

[rugged yacht]

😂

😂

😂

[strong barn]

equally fair tho 🤣

[heavy river]

Any other newbies or people helping newbies looking for 1

[empty night]

im a fellow noob lol

[ornate zealot]

altyns are great, just follow the direction of the ding

[heavy river]

Any other newbies wanna join for quick scav on reserve?

[small cairn]

eu or na?

[heavy river]

NA

[small cairn]

[ornate zealot]

oof the noobs are back on customs...I feel bad for killing them

[blissful prism]

LFG EU level 7

[ivory ether]

so is dorms v ex always open for pmc's if 4 people have not used it yet?

[stuck peak]

Yes

[ornate zealot]

if anyone uses it, it's expired

even if it's just a solo

[ornate zealot]

Sometimes the car isn't there and you can't use it

[ivory ether]

oh alright

[coral tiger]

Anyone wanna run shoreline tonight eu lvl 27 gotta do the resort quest in 306 and then find the groups sent to the 3 places

[bold kernel]

That would be me lol

[fluid kraken]

what are altyns?

[ornate zealot]

It's a helmet that covers your entire head with the visor - class 5 all around

https://clips.twitch.tv/RoughFriendlyPonyCclamChamp

[fluid kraken]

lmao

[ornate zealot]

hey, it's tanky

:)

[crisp nest]

yes its like 21 vs 60? or something like that

sorry 21 to 35

[ornate zealot]

actually reapir did get upgraded to like 60

[green portal]

is pushing Customs Dorms solo not advisable? I have the quest to kill PMCs in there

[strong barn]

i mean--you dont have to survive after you kill the PMC's...right? 🤔

[crisp nest]

paratus holds 35

[bold kernel]

huh

[crisp nest]

you dont

[ornate zealot]

It's fun to fight in dorms

[crisp nest]

6 in diff raids

[green portal]

in that case I'm not sure where I should be hiding then

[ornate zealot]

just push everyone you hear

[green portal]

top of 3rd looking at stairwell? or in a room?

[strong barn]

Just push like you own the place
grenade the windows prefire hallways and voiceline like a chad

[ornate zealot]

most people won't know what to do when you push them hard

[green portal]

I'm assuming I spawn next to Dorms to hold down in

[strong barn]

dont be afraid to hop out a window mid fight and run in from the lower floors
everyone expects you to run down a hallway into their face

[strong barn]

its not about sitting in a room and 'holding it'

[ornate zealot]

but if you really wanna hold a spot

3rd floor balcony has a window

[strong barn]

^

[ornate zealot]

that looks into the 3rd floor hallway

you can prefire that door

[strong barn]

^ this man knows

[ornate zealot]

when you hear people run across

[green portal]

on the side next to car right?

[ornate zealot]

yeah

and if you need to get out

there's a window right under you can jiggle onto

[strong barn]

I know i saw a youtube vid recently of that exact jump from JesseKazam

[ornate zealot]

wear an altyn camping that door

[green portal]

oh the balcony outside to look in the middle room / hall?

[ornate zealot]

guaranteed kills

[green portal]

hm OK OK

[crisp nest]

or get the bois and hide in different rooms

free kills even if you have sks

[strong barn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BO0JG2B0vp0&t=534s @green portal @ornate zealot ?

[green portal]

oh word

[strong barn]

7:25 he does it right

[ornate zealot]

yeah that's the one

[strong barn]

its cheeky af

[ornate zealot]

you're behind htem so quickly

I usually toss a nade in the hall

then another upward as I drop

the 2 nades are enough explosion to cover my entire run up hte stairs

[bold kernel]

I never bring nades with me

[ornate zealot]

how often do you get killed by 1 or go fuck I gotta run at them?

[bold kernel]

I havnt seen any body use nades yet

[neon willow]

they do work and clear areas

[crisp nest]

^^

[chrome violet]

ive killed myself like 10 times with grenades

[ornate zealot]

they're more useful in cqb, but tossing them well during cover to cover outdoors is great as well

[crisp nest]

you can take space and clear areas

[chrome violet]

i hit trees every fucking time im pretty ass

[ornate zealot]

pull the pin then do a q/e tilt

[neon willow]

lol yeh i kinda suck at nade throws too

[bold kernel]

I want to do raids with other people but I know I'll get spooked and shoot them on accident

[neon willow]

it happens

[ornate zealot]

to minimize your exposure time and also better for tossing around obstacles

[unreal horizon]

Just don't shoot anyone in the back, if you don't know who it is ask your team to jump or look straight up

[bold kernel]

True

[neon willow]

the hesitation will get you killed tho

you need to know where everyone on you team is

[ornate zealot]

Yeah I prefer solo play

I find it easier to 1v3 than 3v3

[unreal horizon]

Or just comm with your teammates lol

You should know what yall are doing

[ornate zealot]

4-5 mans though are tough

[neon willow]

i think solo/duo is better agreed

[chrome violet]

yeah ive played four man a couple times and its a confusing nightmare

[neon willow]

4man is aids lol

[ornate zealot]

killing 4-5 mans requires a lot of sneaking around and cheeky reangles

[neon willow]

not hard they will kill each other lol im jk

[ornate zealot]

sometimes I run together in the middle of them

and see how long it takes for htem to realize

[chrome violet]

ye i did a 5 man with good gear on reserve one time and a guy with m61 sr25 killed all 5 of us, a sad day

[bold kernel]

is there a mag for akm that has min check lvl 1 ?

[light scarab]

https://gyazo.com/e976efddebbb757d4f26bac0c52f84b9

For gunsmith part 2, idk what I'm doing wrong

[unreal horizon]

probably the recoil?

[light scarab]

I'm doing everything the wiki is telling me to do

[unreal horizon]

oh you don't have enough ergo

[strong barn]

theres no stock lol

[light scarab]

Oh, I thought I needed to take that off

That's probably it

[crisp nest]

you FOLD the stock

dont take it off

lol

[light scarab]

ty that worked

plz no bulli

[strong barn]

😂

[bold kernel]

took the day off to dedicate it to learning de wey, can anyone help explain the different types of meds to me?

[strong barn]

they have a description that pretty much gives you everything you need to know

[crisp nest]

just inspect them

[strong barn]

or do you not have any idea of the different status effects in the game at all ? @bold kernel real question not tryna be a douche

[bold kernel]

thats my problem tbh

[unreal horizon]

heavy bleeds: esmarch or hemostat
light bleed: bandage and most meds
health: ifaks, salewa, ai2

fractures need splints

[crisp nest]

grizzly heals all of these

[coral tiger]

Ifak hemostat and splints are all you need

If your low level

[crisp nest]

afak is just better vers. of ifak and salewa

[bold kernel]

got it thank you

[coral tiger]

Debatable

[bold kernel]

i need to write all of this down and put it on my wall lol

[crisp nest]

???

[unreal horizon]

well no

the healing threshold is too low

[crisp nest]

salewa does heal more per use yeah

salewa is more practical

afak is better in pure numbers

[strong barn]

boys I need max stress resistance
your character gets a status effect called Berserk that is infinite painkillers and increased fov

[crisp nest]

just get shot a lot

[strong barn]

e z

[bold kernel]

I need to get more hemostats so I can make more salewas for a tasks

[unreal horizon]

just hit lvl 10 and buy them

you should get 10 quick just by playing

[bold kernel]

Only level 6

[ornate zealot]

Just go to crack house and find them

It has to be fir

[crisp nest]

^

[bold kernel]

Wheres crack house

[unreal horizon]

as all crafts are

[crisp nest]

are the med spawns only on the tables or also on the shelves in medroom of crackhouse?

[ornate zealot]

Oh you meant buy them as in the hemostats

I thought you meant the salewas

[bold kernel]

I need the hemostats to make the salewas

[ornate zealot]

Meds spawn in the med storage room and the chemicals room

[celest sage]

Infinite painkillers

Wait why increased fov

[ornate zealot]

You can find whole salewas on customs in crackhouse

[crisp nest]

wait whats the chemical room?

[bold kernel]

Where on customs is crack house

[ornate zealot]

The room with the test tubes

[celest sage]

Near RUAF

Has intelligence spawns too

[bold kernel]

But I also need to craft 3 salewas

[celest sage]

You can just find them

[ornate zealot]

Huh does it have to be crafted

[celest sage]

But I’d craft them

[crisp nest]

YOU CAN FIND THE SALEWAS IN THE MED ROOM

[celest sage]

No

[crisp nest]

no

[ornate zealot]

Didnt think so lol

[bold kernel]

It said craft 3 and turn In 3 salewas

[ornate zealot]

You can craft or just find it whole in a raid

[celest sage]

@bold kernel get the salewas from crackhouse OR craft them

[crisp nest]

it does not say craft only

[celest sage]

Craft or find in raid

[bold kernel]

It said either

[toxic ore]

finding it in raid is way easyier

[celest sage]

Yeah it’s an option

You pick which one you want you can craft them or find them

[toxic ore]

i can help you find them whoever wants them

[celest sage]

But I’d just craft them it’s way easier imo

[toxic ore]

na

[celest sage]

Why not

[ornate zealot]

Do you even have fuel to run your med station?

[toxic ore]

takes way to long in my op

[oblique mauve]

what do u guys do to ur fuel cases when they run out?

[oblique mauve]

sell to therapist?

[unreal horizon]

don't use this, you're missing a large chunk of the map

[toxic ore]

want me to take you to find them

[coral tiger]

Make nade cases and sell them lol

[compact granite]

i was trying to buy a few backpacks from ragman then i got a dumbass captcha now it sais im banned from flea market?

wtf

[oblique mauve]

ok ty

[bold kernel]

I'm at work

[coral tiger]

I think you only make about 10k but it get rid of them haha

[ornate zealot]

Just sell the metal ones

I use blue fuel tanks cus you can turn them into mag cases

And those actually sell for something

[coral tiger]

Same with metals you can make grenade cases 😂😂

[ornate zealot]

Grenade cases isnt much profit

Mag case is

[coral tiger]

But gets your money spent with dealers up 😉😉

[ornate zealot]

I exclusively run blue fuel tanks

[light scarab]

umm, is there any way someone could help me get a 4.1 inch guide real quick

[unreal horizon]

why? metal is 150k for a full day

[light scarab]

oh wait I think I can get it via barter

[ornate zealot]

blues are free

[toxic ore]

tarkov gonna wipe in a few weeks thats why i stopped playing lol

[unreal horizon]

ok

[crisp nest]

its not

but ok

[ornate zealot]

more like a few months

[unreal horizon]

^

[ornate zealot]

but I mean if you don't wanna play, just don't :)

[toxic ore]

yea lol graphics cards dropped to 700k bitcoin at 300k

[barren oasis]

yeh ok

what ab it

[ornate zealot]

how is that an indicator of a wipe?

[crisp nest]

lmao this guy believed the guy yesterday

[toxic ore]

i wasnt here yesterday

[ornate zealot]

bitcoin prices are rising again, the earth is flat confirmed

[unreal horizon]

makes sense to me

[coral tiger]

Blues aren't free show me where there free coz I'd like to know unless your not running a btc farm

[unreal horizon]

lol

[coral tiger]

This guy turns his gen on to start the craft and turns it back off and waits 3 days for a mags case

[unique marsh]

yikes

[ornate zealot]

150k per x2 + 20k metal scissors + 25k x 3 for bolts + 20k x 3 for nuts = 455k per mag case

sell mag case for 350k

so you pay 100k for 2 blues

[unreal horizon]

lavatory doesnt need fuel my dude

[ornate zealot]

why do you need to wait

just run full fuel tanks

[coral tiger]

You get what I mean tho 😂😂

[unreal horizon]

we don't

[barren oasis]

bro we dont

[ornate zealot]

so yeah - 100k isn't nothing... I guess

but it's really cheap for 70hrs

LOL

50k per fuel tank, there I corrected myself

[coral tiger]

I was taking the piss 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️I'm saying blue fuel isn't free🤷‍♂️

[barren oasis]

we know tht yu fucking donut

they meant in price

[ornate zealot]

I was saying if you craft the mag case with the empty blues, it almost pays itself off

which is better than buying a metal and doing nothing with it cus grenade case is negative profit

[coral tiger]

I mean it's not really negative profit because if your running a btc farm your making 700k from the btc and still making the nade case your selling to the dealer so that's 1m every 2 days 🤷‍♂️

[ornate zealot]

you make the bitcoin money from blues as well

so that doesn't really count

[coral tiger]

Yeah but you use more blues than metals

[worldly falcon]

In the shop is there any way to show only compatible items?

[unreal horizon]

this can't be a serious point

[barren oasis]

why are yu so concerned on what they do

[unique marsh]

you can do linked search for flea marked stuff

[coral tiger]

2 days worth of blue is 4 blues right?

[barren oasis]

just stfu

[coral tiger]

How about you stfu I'm pretty sure we was just having a discussion that you wasn't involved in you absolute rude twat

[ornate zealot]

It's about the cost/minute, which blue is cheaper

[worldly falcon]

Any way to do that outside of flea market

[worldly falcon]

Oh nvm need to be lvl 10

[ornate zealot]

right click an item and linked search

[barren oasis]

bro yu all up on his dick ab what he does if he find it profitable then its there concerned idk y yu going at him for using blue gas

[unique marsh]

don't think so, but you still see trader prices on the flea market

[ornate zealot]

you can try the modding interface

but it only shows parts you own, not what's offered by vendors

[worldly falcon]

Also don't have that 😅

[coral tiger]

I wasn't all up on his dick I was just giving the point against his and we was having a normal discussion which you seem incapable of having because your brain capacity doesn't allow it...

[unreal horizon]

chill

[barren oasis]

[idle bluff]

Think both of you guys need to take a step back before you continue at each other, especially you, Maix.

[crisp nest]

@coral tiger no offense bro but he proved that blue gas is more efficient

in every way

[barren oasis]

im just ina raid doing SBIH

[worldly falcon]

(Idk what blue gas or all these terms are so I have a long way ahead of me)

[ornate zealot]

no wonder he's so agitated 😹

sbih can do that to a guy

[idle bluff]

Then focus on the raid, we can't have you telling people off like that.

[crisp nest]

the blue gas can 🤣

[worldly falcon]

((I still don't know tf that is))

[coral tiger]

He may have but still wl there was a discussion going on and jumping in and telling people to shut up is just not needed 🤷‍♂️

[unreal horizon]

let it go and move on

[unique marsh]

to fuel your hideout you need gas, blue gas can is one of the two types of fuel cans you can use

[crisp nest]

you should have one in ur stash

lol

[coral tiger]

But yeah I'm good haha

[crisp nest]

the blue can of gas

[worldly falcon]

Best maps to get stuff like bolts and tools?

I've been going factory a lot since it's easy to find the exit

[fallen hollow]

are flechette shells any good anymore?

[ornate zealot]

customs

[unreal horizon]

yeah they fuck up armor

[worldly falcon]

Also I was just chilling earlier in factory and I just went blind and died

What happened

[ornate zealot]

someone flashbanged you

(more likely a star shot)

[worldly falcon]

That explains it

[worldly falcon]

They have FLASHBANG SHOTGUN BOTLS?!

[bold kernel]

What does Vaseline do

[ornate zealot]

I marked the red x's where you can find big tool boxes

these drop lots of tools and lots of valuable loot

[worldly falcon]

Alright thanks

[unreal horizon]

yeah they're sort of busted but you can only but 2 per restock

[fallen hollow]

i knew my baby's would still be good

[fallen hollow]

is a painkiller

dont ask how

[ornate zealot]

the flashbang shotgun rounds don't have a long effective range - they're good for night raid though

[fallen hollow]

it just is

[bold kernel]

Lol

[ornate zealot]

you must've poked your face into his barrel without realizing

[worldly falcon]

||Just gotta wait for scav to come back since I don't have much to use and I don't wanna loose it||

[unreal horizon]

the nice thing is you won't be spending too much, since most lv 1 gear is cheap

[bold kernel]

Just run in with nothing and through some expensive stuff in your pouch

[crisp nest]

hatchet running :/

[worldly falcon]

Yeah sometimes it's fun to just run around with a knife and pray you don't get shot

[unreal horizon]

don't do that

[crisp nest]

i totally didnt hatchet run crackhouse yesterday

[worldly falcon]

But then again you have to heal yourself after you die

[unreal horizon]

it's no way to learn the game

[bold kernel]

Last hatchet run I did I made 75k

[unreal horizon]

you'll never get better hatchet running

[unreal horizon]

exactly...

[crisp nest]

i needed intel for intel 2 though and im dead broke rn

[bold kernel]

Only did it because I was low on money

[ornate zealot]

You can get better at hatchet running :^)

[unreal horizon]

fair enough

[bold kernel]

I do to learn loot spots and map better aswell

[unreal horizon]

on which maps? or just in general?

[bold kernel]

I've only played customs so far

[ornate zealot]

oof hatch running customs

[worldly falcon]

Where's the extraction points?

[ornate zealot]

depends where you spawn

[unreal horizon]

customs isn't very good for loot, only good reason to go is questing and pvp

[ornate zealot]

if you spawn east, you go west; or vice versa

I'd argue otherwise

I've made 2-3m+ raids on customs multiple times

[bold kernel]

So is this map not good to use

[ornate zealot]

https://tarkov-tools.com/map/customs

[crisp nest]

yup as pmc theres only 2 sets of extracts

[unreal horizon]

Yeah but think about how much more you get from the average reserve/interchange raid

[reef spoke]

Hey new guys, can I can your thoughts on something?

[ornate zealot]

I pretty much only PVP those maps so not much 😂

[unreal horizon]

fair enough lol

[reef spoke]

Does this make sense to anyone else but me?

[bold kernel]

I've only killed one or 2 pmcs

[ornate zealot]

It makes sense to me, but I watched that whole discussion video between veritas and nikita

[unreal horizon]

in reference to sights being zeroed to certain bullets?

if so yeah, makes sense

[ornate zealot]

I think it's a bit harder for new players to understand though

[reef spoke]

yeah, im working on something for the wiki since i've neglected doing that for them.

[ornate zealot]

If you add enough exposition, yeah, that diagram would work

you even accounted for horizontal recoil

[reef spoke]

Thanks guys. I have a bad habit of forgetting not everyone does precision rifle shooting at a hobby and have "lost" a lot of folks in my explanations.

[unreal horizon]

that's a pretty sick hobby

[reef spoke]

It will make sure i'm never wealthy thats for sure lol.

[unreal horizon]

very true

[ornate zealot]

I just tell myself I gotta make more whenever I pick up new expensive hobbies haha

[reef spoke]

well yeah, but 3k for glass alone starts to be daunting...

[ornate zealot]

Just make more money ez

[dawn geyser]

lol

3k

More than my ar & glock combined

[ornate zealot]

I'd want some cool optics one day

[reef spoke]

I exaggerate a bit but I think I ended up paying just under 2k for my USO.

[dawn geyser]

I'm here pondering on whether or not I should spend 700 bucks for a uh-1 and you're doing triple my prices

[reef spoke]

uh-1 is objectively the right answer for holos .

holosun is a solid option for about 350 too though

[dawn geyser]

I have a holosun already

[ornate zealot]

I can't use that sight in game at all

[dawn geyser]

The uh-1 is just

Pretty.

[dawn geyser]

The in-game sight doesn't do it justice xD

[reef spoke]

^

then again no game does red dot rights

[dawn geyser]

yeah it's

I'm going to say impossible

Red dots are just

[ornate zealot]

the weaver is pretty accurate

[reef spoke]

-shakes fist- Damn perception rendering issues
