beginners-assistance

[unreal horizon]

idk how you'd play this game without that

[dawn geyser]

You cannot

[bold kernel]

i hate woofs

woods

[wispy zealot]

... idiot...

[bold kernel]

⏩

[dawn geyser]

How can you hate woofs

They're so fluffy.

[bold kernel]

wods

my only tip is leg meta.

[river plume]

Yo wassup y’all. Pretty new to the game. Coworker and I just got it. Any advice on how to keep from gettin discouraged/tactics? We keep dyin on customs, and pretty much losing all of our stuff.

[quaint flicker]

one thing thats important is to take breaks especially if you have bad runs just so you dont lose all your motivation in one go

tactics at the beginning is to avoid hotspots and do loot/stash runs on maps that are more open like shoreline, woods, customs or interchange

[bold kernel]

i think you should go reserve more often, learn where the loot is and a pattern for everytime you go in to a raid. Also, reserve is a smaller map and you could possibly learn the game better

[dawn geyser]

^Reserve as a scav

[bold kernel]

true

[unreal horizon]

I wouldn't recommend reserve to a new player tbh

[dawn geyser]

If you learn the position around the K-buildings you'll get decent loot

[bold kernel]

i would

[quaint flicker]

playing in groups is also a good way to not get tired of the game

[river plume]

We just got it yesterday. Standard edition. All I got left from the initial package is an M4, and he’s got nothing from initial

[dawn geyser]

I would sell the M4 to Mechanic

Stock M4 is uncontrollable

[quaint flicker]

if youre EU and you dont mind another person i can help you all out in a group to get the basics down

[river plume]

Was going into factory constantly as scav to try and get out real quick a bad tactic for loot carrying?

Nah I’m in NA

[bold kernel]

scav on reserve is the best

[quaint flicker]

not necessarily but factory is usually only good if you want to do some quick pvp tbh

[dawn geyser]

Loot on factory is non-existent

It's good if you want to practice PVP

[bold kernel]

factory loot is all killing the other pmcs

if your like 10 minutes left on reserve i suggest going to train station or underground bunker for dead raiders and pmcs

[river plume]

I gotchu. I guess our thinking was if we loaded in and exited quick as possible we’ at least leave with scav load out

[dawn geyser]

Ah I see

[bold kernel]

well unless you bring in a huge backpack and pick up scav guns to like vendor then you can make a little bit but not as much as you really need to to break even lol

[dawn geyser]

Just to have a loadout on your PMC huh

[crisp nest]

i just did that i always do that and i killed gluhar

then died at exfil to another player scav

[river plume]

Yeah I mean. I’ve got some decent stuff doing that. But coworker is almost barebones

[crisp nest]

fuck that scav cant even kill the boss by himself

[dawn geyser]

I'm sure you guys are getting discouraged it's tough

[crisp nest]

ive lost like 5 mil to other player scavs already

lmao

[bold kernel]

lol

Ive lost loads recently I just dont care lol

[dawn geyser]

Idm showing you the ropes on reserve, but i'm at work

[river plume]

Ye. I mean, if there was some way to not lose as much. But we haven’t been getting insurance cuz it’s expensive af

[crisp nest]

i dont care about the loss that much i just needed that money for my hideout

[bold kernel]

i always have a loot route when im going scav reserve

you gotta learn your money maps mainly reserve and interchange are the popular ones for money

[crisp nest]

hits me much harder because i lost 3 kits yesterday(vector meta m4, etc with class 5)

[bold kernel]

like garages, then medical then helicopter ration boxes and if late match, loot dead raiders or eventually kill them

[river plume]

I gotchu. Is there just like a fuck ton of loot?

[dawn geyser]

There's raiders

[crisp nest]

how the hell am i supposed to get out overweight from like 2 guns when my extract is across the map

[dawn geyser]

Which is like souped up scavs

[bold kernel]

on interchange and reserve? theres LOADS on both

[dawn geyser]

Has great gear and things to sell for money

[crisp nest]

if you get heating pipe go for raiders

[bold kernel]

scavs on crack

[river plume]

Ah I gotchu

[crisp nest]

don't be me

[chilly dagger]

be him

[crisp nest]

if you dont have heating pipe

[chilly dagger]

^

[crisp nest]

its riskier by far

[bold kernel]

sometimes, boss guards they are harder but have better loot

[dawn geyser]

Just learn the K-buildings/trains area
then learn the 4 extracts for scav [CP Fence, hole in the mountains, heating pipe, bunker hermetic]

Not to be confused with hermetic door

[crisp nest]

its really why i died tbh

[bold kernel]

Reserve it really depends on what spawns you go for if youre wanting meds you go for white bishop if youre wanting guns and bullets you hit up the pawn buildings stuff like that

[river plume]

Ahh I see

[stone hemlock]

Yo where does the guilded Zibbo lighter spawn?

[bold kernel]

white bishop can be somewhat profitable sometimes people tend to leave CMS kits which can sell for a little bit on the flea market

[dawn geyser]

Type in your quest name on Google and add "tarkov"

[bold kernel]

raiders do have godlike aim though if they are alive, so be sure to outsmart them

[dawn geyser]

It will show you exactly where to find it

[stone hemlock]

I did it doesnt say where it spawns on the wiki

[bold kernel]

but you can also just farm yourself some cms kits for personal use too

since theyre mega useful to just have

[stone hemlock]

and ive never seen one before

[bold kernel]

customs three story building dorms

its only quest item

[stone hemlock]

Do u know what room?

[dawn geyser]

Yes it does.

You need to look up the quest

[crisp nest]

use the wiki

[bold kernel]

on the third

[dawn geyser]

Like I said

Not the item

Look up the quest name followed by "tarkov"

[bold kernel]

you need a key

[stone hemlock]

Oh it does, sorry i missed that

[dawn geyser]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Golden_swag

[stone hemlock]

I got it

thanks

[dawn geyser]

Gucci

Gl man!

[bold kernel]

throwback to some raider loot leftovers on reserve:

[chilly dagger]

hacker

[crisp nest]

dont take the shotgun gl40 shell

[chilly dagger]

man

[crisp nest]

thats not that much for reserve tbh xD

[dawn geyser]

^

[bold kernel]

its free tho

[crisp nest]

you gotta loot based on price per slot too

[chilly dagger]

its better then what i have

[crisp nest]

like gzhel and m32 have bad $/slot

[dawn geyser]

If you're newer it's good loot

I'm sure he's a bit on the newer side

[bold kernel]

yah

[dawn geyser]

Yeah then good job

[crisp nest]

[chilly dagger]

i want wipe to happen soon

[dawn geyser]

Everything is reset

[chilly dagger]

[dawn geyser]

If you can think it, it's reset

[bold kernel]

so

new tasks

[crisp nest]

@dawn geyser hey do you know if player scavs can have gzhel

[dawn geyser]

You should get shat on more.

[bold kernel]

every task gone

new task

must be

[dawn geyser]

They cannot spawn with Gzhel

[crisp nest]

ah ok

[chilly dagger]

why would i do that

[dawn geyser]

Sorry I didn't finish

[crisp nest]

have no idea how player scav with 0 raider gear survived 15 rounds of bt to his chest

[dawn geyser]

Keep dying and learning this wipe @chilly dagger

Better you'll do next wipe

You should spend your money on hideout upgrades right now

[bold kernel]

meth'd up

[dawn geyser]

To see what you want next wipe

And what you don't want

[bold kernel]

scav took some hard dook before raid

[crisp nest]

man followed me across the map just to steal some raider gear and a keycard

like damn

[bold kernel]

dedicated

[crisp nest]

gluhar had a coloured keycard too

it was yellow tho

[bold kernel]

ow

[dawn geyser]

Yellow peepeepoopoo

[bold kernel]

that one hurt

[dawn geyser]

[crisp nest]

indeed

2 yellow so far 0 others

[bold kernel]

gluhar ez 1tap hes got no helmet noobly

[crisp nest]

he can have helm im pretty sure

[bold kernel]

guard loot is more yummy than raider

i have only seen him without

[crisp nest]

im only scavving reserve because im broke

otherwise would pmc it

[bold kernel]

i have never encountered a cultist?

i have heard of them

[chilly dagger]

hwo much money yall got

how*

[crisp nest]

560k

[bold kernel]

550k

[crisp nest]

thats why im mad about dying with gluhars gear

[bleak shell]

like 720k

[crisp nest]

1mil isnt that bad but i need the money to finish the last hideout upgrade i need

[dawn geyser]

I scav case'd a ultra med key the other day

[unreal horizon]

go milk those reserve cages

[radiant sable]

I’m down to 50k 😎

[bold kernel]

ok, easiest raid boss is

[crisp nest]

reshala

[bold kernel]

sanitar

[dawn geyser]

Shturman

Sanitar!?

What's wrong with you

lmao

[bold kernel]

1tap

[crisp nest]

shturman can 1 tap though

[unreal horizon]

^ agree

[bold kernel]

sanitar sucks ass

[unreal horizon]

yeah, your face, with his vss

[bold kernel]

cant aim for shit

how is sanitar not hard lol the guy eats bullets and juices himself

[dawn geyser]

Shturman no armor, 2 guards, long LOS to kill him

[bold kernel]

he overdosses

[crisp nest]

shturman 1 taps with a fragment

[crisp nest]

0 LOS when his guard hides in a cabin

[bold kernel]

1tap saniter

[crisp nest]

and u dont know hes there

[dawn geyser]

lol

[crisp nest]

we thought there was 0 guards

im looting

[small cairn]

Sanitar himself is meh, but his guards tho

[crisp nest]

then i hear glass break and im dead

[dawn geyser]

Angry russian noises

[crisp nest]

1 tapped by snb

to thorax

[bold kernel]

sanitars guards are the most dangerous

of all guards

[crisp nest]

reshala is easiest imo

at new gas

[small cairn]

shturman

[unreal horizon]

1 tapping Sanitar once doesn't make him the easiest boss 🙂

[bold kernel]

were talking about the bosses not the guards

[small cairn]

oh just the guards

[dawn geyser]

Guards factor in boss difficulty

[bold kernel]

sanitar guard cracked

[small cairn]

So killa no guards= easiest

[bold kernel]

killa 1tap

[dawn geyser]

No, i never said that.

[bold kernel]

but the other way around

[small cairn]

I know, I am joking

[dawn geyser]

Oh lol

[bold kernel]

killa has no friends

[small cairn]

The should rarely be taken serious

[small cairn]

Except his trusty go kart

[bold kernel]

adn his drip

killa kinda drippy doe

[light scarab]

Why the heckie are so few of these sold

[crisp nest]

[crisp nest]

i just checked

[bold kernel]

i couldve bought one for 9 mil yesterday

[crisp nest]

well not in-game rn but i checked on tarkov market

i guess its not updated then

@pure frost barter it for gpus or something because the tax is too much

[unreal horizon]

ask for a thicc or something

[chilly dagger]

do i need a car battery

for anything

[tight temple]

for your hideout if you havent worked on it

[chilly dagger]

what in my hideout

[unreal horizon]

you need 4 or something but you can craft them for that quest if you want money now

[bleak barn]

yep 4 but u can craft it anyways

[chilly dagger]

@unreal horizon you wanna run some?

maybe level me up 1 time

for 10

[unreal horizon]

can't tonight unfortunately, maybe another time

[chilly dagger]

ight

[silver hornet]

to therapist

[lethal flame]

how do i change the kind of dot on my sights

[chilly dagger]

alt+right click

while aiming

[crisp nest]

dont have to be aiming

just cant se the change if not aiming

[dawn geyser]

[green portal]

do you usually make money back when buying moonshine for scav case?

wondering if there is some sort of passive money making thing that is better than moonshine, or if it's not worth it for that purpose

do Interchange scav runs, 10 - 15 minutes each, you can roam around and check things out. not too risky either

[crisp nest]

just do 85k

scav reserve better but too much 3rd partying

like i killed gluhar today then got cleaned up near extract lmao

[pure frost]

reserve takes ages to get into

[green portal]

Reserve I would say yes to but there are too many people and too many angles to get shot at. also confusing at times for a nooby

[pure frost]

depending on servers

[green portal]

why 85k

[crisp nest]

best profit

*net profit sorry

[green portal]

hm where is that from?

[crisp nest]

what most people do is 85k when online the moonshine before logging off

moonshine better but too slow

[green portal]

oh interesting

oh so the speed is factoring in gas time or something?

because if moonshine wasn't best net profit then why do that over 85k when logging off you know?

oh wait doesn't use gas. is 85k moreso making best net profit at a better rate?

[crisp nest]

yes

but u cant logon during midnight to start another 85

[green portal]

oh that makes a lot of sense, thank you a bunch

I crafted a Moonshine and am thinking of just using it, have another one going too from non-FIR supplies

I only today found out the Therapist crouton thing isn't too strong compared to just buying Moonshine

[finite mountain]

Will tarkov go on sale on the 9th?

[crisp nest]

most likely

[finite mountain]

Okay, thanks bud.

[green portal]

what's on the 9th?

[unreal horizon]

holiday in russia

[green portal]

[candid steeple]

yeah, I need it for gen

Just don't know the locations of the boxes

[bold kernel]

just buy em

[candid steeple]

[ivory ether]

idk thats just how i found my spark plugs/electrical items

seemed pretty efficient to me

[bold kernel]

yeah it really isnt

[unreal horizon]

just do your quests and hit lvl 10 if you aren't finding 1 spark plug you just aren't looking

[ivory ether]

maybe try going there as a scav

[bold kernel]

i found 3 salewas nd 2 spark plugs this one raid

[unreal horizon]

spark plugs are everywhere, filing cabinets are toolboxes

like search 2 rows of cabinets I'm sure you'll get one

[candid steeple]

[chilly dagger]

[violet sparrow]

yo ok my friend just said that the wipe is on wednesday and that BSG tweeted it, but i can't find the tweet and i wanna check somewhere else to figure it out

[fleet whale]

u need better friends

[cerulean spruce]

“Friends”

[violet sparrow]

lmao solid point

[unreal horizon]

[hollow torrent]

??wipe

[red current]

The last wipe occurred on Dec 24, 2020. The date of the next wipe is unknown.

[ivory ether]

how much extra fuel does it burn to have my lights on inside hideout

[unreal horizon]

none

[ivory ether]

oh

[unreal horizon]

fuel is used at the same rate no matter what happens in your hideout

so go crazy on all the modules/lights

[ivory ether]

ah, so having lights on doesnt take fuel away?

my generator just has to be on

[fleet whale]

generator status says how much fuel u use

on, fuel consumed

off, no fuel used

flat rate all the time

solar panels give 50% off fuel consumption

[ivory ether]

oh alright i get it

interesting, good to know

[unreal horizon]

pls don't buy solar this late in the wipe though

[fleet whale]

^^^

fax

[unreal horizon]

it won't pay itself back

[ivory ether]

didnt even know that was a thing lol

[frosty compass]

wipe is always tomorrow

[ivory ether]

do i need to bring anything else for this

*fishing gear

[fleet whale]

u need less

[radiant sable]

Will Bitcoin farm at this point?

[fleet whale]

drop that sniper

[frosty compass]

why so much gear lol

[ivory ether]

i need the sv98 for the quest

and the multitool]

[frosty compass]

imo just do 1 primary always

oh

you mean stash it?

[ivory ether]

yeah

[frosty compass]

ah rite

[unreal horizon]

probably? I'd say we have another month or so left

[frosty compass]

I'd just do it at night personally with minimal gear but u look fine otherwise

[ivory ether]

ah ok

im gonna try running it with a pistol and some basic armor first, if that doesnt work ill just try this loadout here

[fleet whale]

dont run shit gear

think of all the fights u couldve won if u had good gear

[ivory ether]

yeah

trying to get rid of gear fear lmao

[unreal horizon]

gear fear goes out the window when you're questing. speedrun for cheap, thats the way

[fleet whale]

then just bring the best and lose it

[ivory ether]

yeah

[fleet whale]

u get use to losing it and used to getting it back

[ivory ether]

just spent like 2/3 of my money on stash so im trying to save when i can to get back where i was

[unreal horizon]

no reason to bring your best gear questing imo, you're going to a low traffic area anyway

[ivory ether]

oh so drop the sks and gzhel?

[frosty compass]

quests are just memes though, you don't need to treat them like a geared run

[frosty compass]

agree, just get in and out

[unreal horizon]

keep the sks, you need survived status once you drop it

[ivory ether]

can i just buy the sv98 from flea if i fail

lol

[unreal horizon]

not the same raid, you could die after planting and extract another raid btw

[frosty compass]

ofc

[ivory ether]

wdym

[frosty compass]

you need to actually live once you plant it, he means

[ivory ether]

like drop as in put in my stash

[unreal horizon]

like you need survived status but the quest won't completely fail if you die

[frosty compass]

if you take in 1 gun then drop it off

you'll have no gun

lol

[ivory ether]

ill take a pistol or something

[unreal horizon]

fair enough

[slow bramble]

57

[ivory ether]

yeah i still have a 57 from my pre level 10 days lul

will probably use that since i have enough ammo for it

[bold kernel]

[ivory ether]

the discord server?

[rough scarab]

Yea

[frosty compass]

you just answered your own question

[ivory ether]

oh yeah same

[rough scarab]

It just disappeared from my server list

Thought I got banned lol

[unreal horizon]

i've had other servers being fucky but not this one yet

[ivory ether]

server just crashed for a bit on my side lol

so anyways, which 57 variant do people use

they have the exact same stats.

[radiant sable]

It’s happened like 4 times the last few minutes 😟

[modest hatch]

deadass

[unreal horizon]

redact my statement

[ivory ether]

so the only ammunition worth running on the 57 is ss190, sb193, and l191?

for pen

[open jay]

any scopes like the valday for my 101?

its kind of expensive at 43k

[unreal horizon]

burris is a little cheaper but you need 30mm rings

the elcan is 1x/4x but its stinky

[open jay]

in other words

not really

😦

[unreal horizon]

yeah optics are just kinda expensive

🤷

[open jay]

any advice for getting money in this inflated economy?

preferably not 0 action but also not kiba

lol

[unreal horizon]

just go loot lol

money is everywhere

[rough scarab]

Cache runs

Scav in and look for dead bodies

[open jay]

are cache runs in reserve viable

i wouldnt mind learning the map while looting around

[rough scarab]

I coulda gotten two dvls off of dead bodies but didn’t want to trade my gun for@it

[unreal horizon]

no caches on reserve lol

[open jay]

@unreal horizon oh lmfao

oops

[rough scarab]

Didn’t realize I need it for gun smith

[cinder hound]

but ur gonna need to hold 15 of them

if ur doing that

so dont keep it

[naive depot]

oh apparently there's a fuel tank trade with them 👀

[wispy zealot]

what about fleece and another clothing item looks simular

[cinder hound]

for armor trades

down the line

also quest item for ragman in the future

found in raid

[craggy folio]

LF experienced player to help me out. New to the game. Any map preferably customs. Need you to get me a kit since i have nothing really. Few raids to help me start a bit DM me

[wispy zealot]

what about fuel tank

keep or sell, im lvl 8 rn

[unreal horizon]

keep to sell at lvl 10

or use but regardless more profit once you hit 10

[fathom tinsel]

if its a blue fuel id use it to craft stuff and then use the empty fuel tank to craft mag box

[wispy zealot]

what scope can i buy for m700/mounts if needed

for someone who doesnt have market unlocked

[crisp nest]

weapon

cases

[ivory ether]

does the tigr safari quest have to be done in 1 raid

[crisp nest]

no

[ivory ether]

oh thank god

[jolly lily]

whats best gun to rock like 2 mags to run tech and get like 2 pmc kills idc if i die or its stock

[naive depot]

RPK

5.45 BT

or you could do BS If you're feeling a bit more spendy to try to counter higher level armor up there but that would be maybe half a pack of a mag

[crude cave]

as val any good ? Just got one from completing a mechanic quest

[lethal flame]

is it possible that i spawned into a map alone

with no pmc's

[formal dew]

or they all died/extracted :p

[rose rock]

that or they ratting 👀

[foggy egret]

yes, but its very, very rare

[drifting jolt]

if you're playing at night or in a low population server yes

[heady yarrow]

Could somebody help me in a game to find Jaeger - "Introduction" quest given by mechanic

[barren raptor]

any beginners need any assistance?

[unreal imp]

There is a map on the wiki for that

[graceful nova]

Anybody wanna help me go to do quest Reserv

[bright ledge]

Hey I grabbed jeagers note, but its not appereing in my quest inventory

[graceful nova]

Did u extract @bright ledge

[bright ledge]

I did

[timber fiber]

Hello guys, i’m looking to exchange a rivals armband on the flea, anyone interested?

[bold kernel]

@bright ledge exactly that happened to me i just had to do the task all over

pain in the ass

[bright ledge]

Damn

[hot tree]

rip i wouldnt want to do it again

[bold kernel]

i didnt want to either so i came back to it some time later

[open jay]

is the hideout really worth it? i dont use the scav runs, i dont use bitcoin farm or the targets, and because of economic laws, theres pretty much 0 profit to be made by crafting

i dont really use it for anything and it cost a considerable amount of money already

[green portal]

damn I got ripped off from the 85k scav case...

@open jay I think use it for passives and FIR task items

there are some crafts that are good to know outside of that but... yeah basically just passives

takes a while to be able to make some of the FIR task items though so just upgrade when you can or want to (eg want the passive or need a specific task item)

save the items for last imo

[silver hornet]

scav case is a gamble

[bronze laurel]

idk, i just feel it's nice to have something to progress towards. If you wouldn't use it at all, then skip it

[jolly lily]

When I play interchnage 8/10 times no one ever hits power what's the point of not hitting it?

[silver hornet]

If you hit power, 9/10 times you won't be getting the loot from the rooms that require power.

[green portal]

yeah first one. just gonna do 1000k

never gamble haha

[silver hornet]

I only do moonshine or intel

most of the time I break even

[mighty jasper]

what is the best minimal armour class to use now?

[small cairn]

zhuk, kirasa and Untar for scav related stuff

[near plover]

mp153 on factory

[small cairn]

if u want to fight players, then your best choice is a tv rig, korund or something along those lines

just remember that most players use m61, so good armor gets kinda redundant

[graceful nova]

Can anybody help with marking ambulance at resort?

[small cairn]

Best tip is just hiding near resort in a bush and then go mark it after 10 ish min

assuming you havent tried that

[reef grove]

is it normal to have 100k to lvl 8

[bronze spoke]

Is there any reason to collect melee weapons? And is there any difference besides I assume damage?

My PMC used ER Bayonet but I found a Crowbar and not sure if I should just sell or what

[small cairn]

Some have different dmg values when stabbing/clubbing, some also have more range and red rebel even has another use, which is 1 additional extract on reserve

[grim pulsar]

Anyone who can help me later with quests oncustoms and mabey do some runs on woods? (DM me)

[small cairn]

but no, there is no reason to keep melees, just look at the dmg values and pick the one with the highest

[mighty jasper]

wtf i went to reserve and shot an ai with the heavy machinegun and he didn't die after 3 shots

and then i got suddenly killed without hearing anything

[small cairn]

Most likely desynced

[mighty jasper]

fuck man

[bronze spoke]

Would you say it's worth getting a little bit of a damage boost and a little more range on the crowbar but 3 times the weight? I feel like I almost never use the melee anyway to the weight would in most cases not be worth

[small cairn]

In all honesty, I don't even carry melees, because then I can pick up scav melees and sell them

e.g. when I find an antique axe

thats easy 50k

[bronze spoke]

Actually smart, good idea

[small cairn]

once I found a RR

[sharp flicker]

could just barely afford the scav box if i were to sell a lot of valuable things

should i

[bronze spoke]

Sounds like a bad idea but I think it would depend what you think is valuable things
I'd personally scrap my entire stash for one of those 😂

[sharp flicker]

with valuable i mean things like a lab access card, fp 100, some flash drives

[bronze spoke]

If you're a beginner I'd imagine you won't be going to labs anytime soon considering how sweaty it is (and even if you go it'd be risky) so if it were me I'd sell the keycard assuming by the time you are ready for labs you'll either find another or be able to afford to buy one
But I'd also recommend getting someone elses opinion aswell cause I'm pretty new myself

[bold kernel]

sell labs keycards when you're not good enough to go labs

im not saying im good enough at all lmao, i've been once

but if its found in raid, or even to therapist its better than just letting it gather dust in your inventory

[sharp flicker]

found in raid because scav gaming

[bold kernel]

then sell kt on the flear

unless you're good enough or have a good team

in my opinion

[small cairn]

Always sell labs keycards and wait until you can buy them from therapist

unless you are giga rich and addicted to labs and don't have time to pick up the cards yourself

[small cairn]

I probably wouldn't buy it rn then, just buy it when you can comfortably continue playing

maybe buy it, when you have 2m or something

but u could, a scav box is super nice for questing

and even better if you are a hoarder

[sharp flicker]

i need to spend at least 10 minutes after each scav run on inventory

does that tell you anything

[small cairn]

not much

I do that too

considered getting a thicc item case to solve that, but I Would 100% just fill it up instantly

[bold kernel]

when i get my first Thicc items case i thought all my problems were solved

i had legit so much space

two days later lmao

im full again

[bronze spoke]

Bro I've been scav only runs because of how long I spend in my inventory trying to organise it and then I have no space because I just hoard gear

[small cairn]

u should really play as pmc too

else you will feel the wrath of being lvl capped

and have low skill lvls

[bronze spoke]

Yeah I started just going as PMC trying to do quests now because I want to unlock the flea market 😂

[small cairn]

[chilly dagger]

Baked beans

😋

[open jay]

do you guys prefer the 5.56 aks or the 5.45 aks?

[remote kettle]

5.45, 7.62 then 5.56. With 5.56 AKs your better off just running and M4 or a HK

[open jay]

what about 5.56 mdr?

[remote kettle]

works on a budget

the difference is that the m4 and hk have 800 rpm and 850rpm respectively against 600 something RPM of the 5.56 AKs

[open jay]

and whats your reasoning for prefering 5.45 over 7.62?

[bold kernel]

so much better recoil

although 7.62 BP is such a solid ammo, the guns have so much more recoil

also with 5.45 you have more options

you have PP, BT, BS and Ignolik one

[remote kettle]

recoil and ammo yeah

5.45s more moddable too, and i like modding guns

[bold kernel]

PS is like PP and BP is like Ignolik but oyu don't have BT

[bold kernel]

i thought they had basically the same mods?

just different base guns

idk tho

[remote kettle]

almost. i just prefer 5.45

but starting out id def stick to 7.62 aks, the PS ammo from prapor ll1 is insanely good for the price and availability

[random turret]

need someone to play on EU

[remote kettle]

only decent 5.45 ammos worth using are BT and up, and BT isnt that good

[remote kettle]

dont have time today sry

[bold kernel]

Nah PP is acceptable for budget

and BT is great?

[remote kettle]

not really

[random turret]

np bro

[bold kernel]

how much pen does it have

[remote kettle]

compare to 7.62 PS

[bold kernel]

really?

i usually compare PP to PS

i thought BT was quite a lot better than PS

[remote kettle]

5.45 PP has 30 pen

5.45 bt has 37

PS has 32

[bold kernel]

yeah 37 pen is solid

def usuable for most situations IMO its 2 pen less than 7N31

or the 9 mil ammo

[remote kettle]

but the thing is PP and BT arent available from prapor 1

which PS is

[bold kernel]

ah fair fair

before level 10 then yeah

as soon as i get flea market though i'd change

[remote kettle]

which is the main reason why PS is so incredibly strong early game

[bold kernel]

and M855

[remote kettle]

run SKS with PS and youre set to go for actual PMCs

m855 is ok, got 28 pen

4 pen less than PS, besides at ll1 traders only semi 5.56 guns are available if i remember correctly

[open jay]

why does everyonthink bp is better than bt

[remote kettle]

because it is

[open jay]

is it just the tracer aspect?

because the pen favors bt no?

[remote kettle]

BP is 7.62 and BT is 5.45

[open jay]

i meant bp and bt for 5.45

[remote kettle]

7.62 BP has 47 pen

5.45 BP has 32 pen

5.45 BT has 37 pen

but the two good rounds are the two next up

[bold kernel]

luger cci

[remote kettle]

5.45 BT is third best, BS is second with 51 pen and 7n39 is best with 62

after 5.45 BT it jumps massively

[remote kettle]

just no

[bold kernel]

luggeer cci fart ammo

ong

[remote kettle]

truuue

[bold kernel]

stock fal type beat

[remote kettle]

got an mp5 with luger from a raider on a scav run, hit a guy 18 times and no kill

[bold kernel]

hehe

[remote kettle]

no reload space

[bold kernel]

ik

gonna fix

[remote kettle]

also overweight

what level r you?

[bold kernel]

21

i dont need the kvass

radiaton exposure?

wf

wtf

ya think theres gonna be a new map next wipe?

with radiation

[hot tree]

cant wait to play with my hazmat suit ;d

[bold kernel]

imagine

i really want to play town map

sounds fun'

[hot tree]

or imagine like a radioactiem the longer you have it in your inventory the more damage it does

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[willow pewter]

what 556 should i be using?

for a somewhat modded adar

i assume m855 isnt good enough

[grim pulsar]

can anyone help with tasks on customs and mabey do some runs on woods DM ME

[small cairn]

Assuming u got max vendors, then 5a1, if u dont have that then probably 6a1?

[celest sage]

^

[bold kernel]

Hey anyone here that has max traders that could help me out? Please send me a DM if u can

[compact zenith]

I see people saying aiming at head level is important, but how do I know where that is?

I keep hitting the chest or thorax every time and get downed by a headshot immediately

[random turret]

need someone to play

[ember pendant]

Repetition mainly, but having a duo in front of you and watching what's head height as you follow them around could help.

[shy coral]

simply aim straight slightly up

but mainly experience ngl

[digital cave]

itll be added in the future

but i dont think they announced it in the next wipes

[open jay]

how does peeker's advantage work? doesnt it make sense that the guy holding the angle has the advantage because his sights are right where the dude has to emerge from?

[digital cave]

aim for the neck/hich thorax and let the recoil get the headshot

[digital cave]

i think peekers advanteage is, that the game wont register you after you sit for a period of time, and when someone rushes around the corner he sees you before you do

[digital cave]

also, that is just holding an angle, because if he doesent know you are there, you have the element of suprise

but, im not 100% sure i am right

[remote kettle]

its not a bug or desync error, peekers advantage is mainly that if you peek, you initiate, meaning you know when youre turning the corner or peek the enemy, you are playing preemptively, and your opponent is playing reactively, meaning he has to react to your movements

and reactions take time, which is why the peeker, or initiating party, has the advantage

thus the term peekers advantage

[digital cave]

hmm, ok

[remote kettle]

basically you dont need to react, as you know when the fight will happen, and your enemy needs to react, as he doesnt know when the fight will happen

note that this only applies when both parties know where each person is, and youre peeking into them

[open jay]

👍

[pure frost]

would snb 1 tap killa

[rugged yacht]

why do people think interchange is dead lol

if 1 gpu pays ur current kit then its fine

[stark aspen]

yo

[pure frost]

i made over 10 mil yestrday on interchange

not counting kits from pvp

[stray drum]

so my stash is completely filled with all kinds of loot and i dont have any space left, every time i escape a scav or pmc run i have to play tetris to just barely fit the loot in. im stacking backpacks in eachother, filling rigs, and taking the stocks of of guns but the stash is still overflowing every time, and i have a standard account so the stash is tiny af. So: does anyone have some easy cases or other ways to not let the stash overflow? Thanks already for any replies!

[unreal horizon]

why are you full? are you hoarding guns or quest items or something?

[stray drum]

nah im either selling guns or using them but im still getting loaded

and only 10% of my stash is just random barter items

[unreal horizon]

if you have base stash, try to keep stuff as liquid as possible, it can get cluttered really quick

[stray drum]

wdym liquid?

[unreal horizon]

keep money rather than items

[stray drum]

true

well thx man

[sour plume]

ehhhhh

don't sell things that aren't guns unless you're absolutely certain you don't need them for a quest/hideout etc

guns are fairly easy to replace early with scav runs & at worst case you can buy mosins, pistols or shitty mp5s to kill ai with

[radiant sable]

Commit sell stuff

[finite slate]

just 1 trick the grach

[sour plume]

doesn't the grach have really bad sight alignment

or am i thinking of a different pistol

i know one of the 9x19 handguns has really bad sight misalignment

[finite slate]

i love the grach ive been using it in nearly all my raids

all pistols are good if ur poor tbf

[rugged yacht]

if your not poor and using a pistol then your either shit at the game or a weirdo

[small cairn]

Or alternatively, you are tired of meta

[unreal horizon]

m4 this, hk that, I just wanna use a ppsh

[small cairn]

Nah bro, me and the homies use PM with 84 rounders and blackout legs

I forgot what ammo, but there is literally 1 PM ammo type, that just oneshtos legs

[unreal horizon]

yikes

[small cairn]

not kills, but just blacks out

which is very funny

[unreal horizon]

do that on interchange and cripple the hatchlings

[small cairn]

One day

Im gonna go in fully geared

with pm /w 84 rounder

and just knee cap people

and leave them to rot

[unreal horizon]

slick exfil and pm

[small cairn]

Might even bring a flash

to make them panic

and think it is a nade

[unreal horizon]

I was using the KS with star rounds and fucking with my friends

little did I know there was a shrap 10 in the chamber

[small cairn]

headn't but not deadn't

[small cairn]

Man what do u do after kappa

Idk what the point of tarkov is

[unreal horizon]

vibe out

[small cairn]

How can I vibe, if I just send vibe into the void

you need something to reflect the vibe to ahve fun

and I aint got no friends

[unreal horizon]

exit camp with gl
