[unreal horizon]

you don't need to hear much, a footstep or turning sound is enough to know exactly where someone is

[compact zenith]

Listening and stopping for a moment is usually good to do since you'll also spot people far in the distance better standing still

If you have good cover of course

But listening is really valuable

[rocky stone]

ty! ill start working on that

[unreal horizon]

a lot of the time it's not even worth ads'ing indoors

generally I ads to hold an angle, or if I see them first

[small cairn]

Or on long ranges

[unreal horizon]

yeah anything over like 25 metres

[rapid minnow]

Does eating and drinking out of raid increase metabolism skill?

[small cairn]

No.

[rapid minnow]

I finally finished Search mission, gotta go back into woods for Introduction

Is the compass one of those items that you can't lose?

[unreal horizon]

correct

it stays in the slot if you die

[rocky stone]

fr? I pretty much stay ADs'ed

[small cairn]

I mean at closer ranges, not really, this is ofc assuming you are using some kind of meta-ish weapon with a laser on it

and not lets say a mosin

[unreal horizon]

say you're pushing someone in dorms there's no point ads'ing

[naive depot]

if you know someone is around the corner in a doorway don't even ads

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[naive depot]

just prefire and spray into the corner you know they're at

IR flashlight will reduce your bullet spread when firing without ADS too

or a flashlight or other laser

[cerulean spruce]

So the SR-25 is the highest ergo gun for M61?

7.62x51

[unreal horizon]

maybe?

[cerulean spruce]

I can't wait until I get my strength up so I can hold an angle for 5 minutes straight with 40 ergo

[unreal horizon]

I've got 54 on an m1a idk how that stacks

[cerulean spruce]

Does it have a silencer?

[unreal horizon]

nope

[cerulean spruce]

Idk if it matters or not

I mean to have silencers on or not

[unreal horizon]

BMD if you're curious

[cerulean spruce]

I know it helps the recoil

You have a QD on?

[unreal horizon]

This should be better recoil than any silencer

[cerulean spruce]

Why do you have that mount?

[unreal horizon]

1. gives scope a little less sway while strafing 2. it feels good to me idk

[regal shuttle]

hey, where can i request a sherpa?

i need some help doing the aquarius task for therapist. i always get lost extracting

[unreal horizon]

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[unreal horizon]

this would be a good start, people come by here sometimes offering help too

[cerulean spruce]

A ton of people run silencers

Idk how much it helps

[crisp nest]

it helps

the recoil

a lot

[bold kernel]

my headphones have THX spatial sound
Should I have it on in tarkov or not

[unreal horizon]

I mean the bmd is more effective for the recoil stat

also when i'm using 308 I usually just use the MDR, full auto and feels good

[crisp nest]

for most guns that is

well a decent bit of them

[rustic plank]

so dont strength train until max endurance?

thats what ive been told but im tired of level 6 strength

[unreal horizon]

What's your endurance?

if you're above 40 it's probably fine to start

[rustic plank]

37

[small cairn]

I mean max endurance is big stonks

[rustic plank]

so i should get 40 before i do that?

[unreal horizon]

probably

[rustic plank]

cause having level 7 strength fucking BLOWS

[small cairn]

going for strength afterwards is probably better, than doing it at 40 e ndu

how does it blow?

[unreal horizon]

strength isn't worth rushing tbh, it's a bitch to lvl manually and hard without max endurance

[small cairn]

They even nerfed strength

[unreal horizon]

ye

[rustic plank]

jump height is shown in a lot of angles

gives you better chances to win fights

[unreal horizon]

true

it's convenient but not necessary

[hot tree]

why are scavs so good at stealthy moving away when i dont look for like 2 seconds ;d

[cerulean spruce]

Is the SR-25 the best ERGO 7.62x51 gun witha silencer*

[unreal horizon]

i'll mess around and build one, I don't know many people who use it I dont think its very good

[stone hemlock]

SR-25 is good, just not better than an m1a or mdr

[cerulean spruce]

Not many people use the SR-25?

[unreal horizon]

I'm getting it around 50 ergo with different silencers

[unreal horizon]

no

[cerulean spruce]

M1A doesn't have as much ergo I don't think?

[crisp nest]

m1a shoot faster

less recoil too i think

[stone hemlock]

more people are worried abt recoil and m1a shoots faster

[unreal horizon]

my m1a has 54 ergo 50 vert 🤷 no complaints

[cerulean spruce]

54 ergo how

[unreal horizon]

this

[stone hemlock]

but sr-25 slaps

[cerulean spruce]

Oh without a silencer

[stone hemlock]

for cheap too

[bold kernel]

how far away is the wipe?

[cerulean spruce]

I forgot you don't run a silencer

[cerulean spruce]

We don't nkow

[bold kernel]

approximations?
I was thinking a few weeks max, I've stopped playing like 2 months ago

[unreal horizon]

Im sorry it's not personal but who tf would ask that?

[cerulean spruce]

No idea

[unreal horizon]

like no one knows, thats the point

[cerulean spruce]

@bold kernel No one has any idea

[bold kernel]

k

[unreal horizon]

if you look up when the wipe is and cant find it, how would anyone here know?

[bold kernel]

Previous experience on how long the wipe lasts I guess
Sorry

[small cairn]

More like everyone has ideas, but nothing actuel

[marsh hearth]

Is my insured equipment coming back when I am leaving the game?

[hot tree]

if no one steals it yes

or i mean extracts with it

[marsh hearth]

But "missed in action" is not coming back?

[grim reef]

Does anyone want to just sit and watch me stream my game play and tell me what I am doing right and wrong?

[hot tree]

i left in a raid because i broke my leg but it came back

[normal furnace]

[stone hemlock]

nah if u got MIA it doesnt come back

[normal furnace]

I don't see any atleast

[crisp nest]

bruh

[cerulean spruce]

I'm searching for a guide to help me with farming pt.1

[unreal horizon]

isn't that just the factory one or am I forgetting?

[crisp nest]

just do 1 board a raid

in container

or go geared and have some fun

[naive depot]

put tools in butt

run to spot on night factory with a cheap pistol and a flashlight

[stone hemlock]

or run with 5 man and its impossible to fail

[weary reef]

so i ran out of space on my computer and i dont play tarkov anymore and i dont know how to delete the game

[shadow pecan]

i tried resetting my alt account and it reset my main for some reason? am i just unable to do so? and if its not a bug or something why doesnt it tell us

[crisp nest]

uninstall it

thru the contrlo panel

control

[bold kernel]

no if you go to where your bsg games folder is there is an uninstall.exe you can run

@weary reef

[weary reef]

i already did it

[bold kernel]

alright no problem 👍

[crisp nest]

would control panel not work?

usually it opens the uninstaller for you

[bold kernel]

Was wondering if someone could help me do bronze pocket watch

[stable violet]

thx

[carmine gust]

I think it takes 5 minutes to install it then it runs the 20 hours.

[rancid heron]

how much does it cost to sell a thicc weapons case on the market?

[crisp nest]

for 9.5 mil, you pay 1.5mil tax

[ivory ether]

this guy with defender and mp5 was bush camping me and still didnt get the kill smh

[radiant sable]

Lmao he found a defender in a stash

[ivory ether]

yeah probably, it was near railway extract on ic

[crisp nest]

what ap ammo is that

[radiant sable]

It’s for the mcx

[ivory ether]

blackout

[crisp nest]

hex barter

[ivory ether]

[final jewel]

[sand geode]

Does anyone wanna help me out im really broke and need help

[ivory ether]

[willow plover]

agh like nobody responds to shit in the lfg channel

[final jewel]

@willow plover let's run it

[mint idol]

Any idea why does it say i don't have enough space to buy 6Sh118?

[radiant sable]

On flea market the person may be listing more than one

[mint idol]

But i'm trying to buy only 1

Ohhh, nvm it in pack of 12

my bad

[bold kernel]

how can you play offline?

[ivory ether]

keep pressing next when you select a map, it will eventually bring you to the offline raid menu, choose your settings and hit ready @bold kernel

[cloud kestrel]

If anyone wants to play just @ me I am willing to help some new players, I am lvl 13 and I know customs and woods.

[ivory ether]

so im making like 250k-500k but closer to 250k on average for my scav runs, is that a good amount?

or should it be more

[naive depot]

sure

stormtrooper mask saved me against a guy with buckshot 💪

[unreal horizon]

nah that's more than good

as long as your putting in effort to loot and not just leaving with your kit

[lone drum]

How do I stop getting jumpscared ?

[naive depot]

you'll get used to it

if i'm playing solo and it's quiet and suddenly i hear a shot it'll still make me jump sometimes

[ivory ether]

oh yeah i take the stashes on the way to extract on ic

and maybe wander around and look for stuff/dead bodies

[radiant sable]

By going back to warframe 🙂

[unique marsh]

the more you play, the less it hurts

[dreamy monolith]

can someone give me any tips for getting pmc pistol kills im lvl 22 and still havet finished stirrup

[unreal horizon]

go factory and just click heads

[crisp nest]

^

[unreal horizon]

you can use something like a 5-7 or sr1mp for pen, or an apb and spam eyes

[crisp nest]

have meds and a grenade maybe in container

and headset for sure

if you are going naked that is

[rough scarab]

you know what doesnt make sense about buying packs of stuff like backpacks

[cloud kestrel]

Just got about 400k from a scav raid!

[rough scarab]

u can just nest them inside of each other and it wont take up as much space

[fading violet]

glock18 goes brrrr

[dreamy monolith]

i cant hit shots with that for shut i tried but i keep doing it

[fading violet]

just go to factory and spray people

you don't need to aim when they are within 10 meters of you

you can add a stock on the 18 too so it can help with recoil if you want

[chrome atlas]

anyone wanna share their rat camping spots

[unreal horizon]

you wish lol

[shrewd estuary]

so i have enough for a lucky scav box but if i buy one then i would only have 400k

[chrome atlas]

ill trade you

[unreal horizon]

lmao

[chrome atlas]

i have a d2 camping spot that is dirt nasty

[unreal horizon]

oh do you? lmfao

I know a few

[chrome atlas]

is this game about fun or about the littne number increasing

[unreal horizon]

under metal stairs, wood room platform, server racks, long hallway, or TV?

[unreal horizon]

nombas

[willow plover]

Enough from the vendor or enough from the flea? you can get it for like 500-600k cheaper off flea market

[shrewd estuary]

flea

[unreal horizon]

that's always checked

[chrome atlas]

i mean it works for me 9/10 times

ive only gotten shot there once and it was by a dude named "reservemain"

[unreal horizon]

shoot out the far top light and get a boost on top of the pipe

[chrome atlas]

HAH

you think i have friends

[fading violet]

I feel like the pipe is checked more often than devito's spot right here

[chrome atlas]

the amount of shit that ends up in their pants...
priceless

[unreal horizon]

Server racks is pretty s tier

[fading violet]

recently everytime I camped D2 I run into a four or five man

and I had to let them pass

it pains me

[chrome atlas]

i keep geting exit camped on my way to exit camp

[unreal horizon]

only time I see 5 mans is with a fricking KS

when I have a reasonable gun it's always 1 or 2

[chrome atlas]

you think well get an m249

[fading violet]

PKM is confirmed by Nikita, and he says he will add more MGs

[chrome atlas]

:0

[fading violet]

to make machine guns worth a damn they need to make full auto less optimal on other guns first imo

otherwise what's the point in running a MG when you can laser a m4 with 60rounders while strafing anyways

[chrome atlas]

i think its more about volume of fire than rate

[unreal horizon]

It's about sending a message

[chrome atlas]

who cares if i cant land my first 4 shots if i can just keep shooting until them and everything around them is vaporized

[coral tiger]

i mean i pre nade d2 lol

[unreal horizon]

too bad it doesnt work

[fading violet]

you need like 30 nades to pre nade every corner of D2 lmao

[unreal horizon]

half the spots you can't prenade without being a nade god

[fading violet]

unless you mean the actual extract, which nobody camps anyway

[coral tiger]

no line i prenade that tunnel lol 3 nades in there then prefire the spots i know lol

[unreal horizon]

idk if it's even possible to nade the hallway spot behind sandbags

[hollow torrent]

What’s my best bet at getting a golden rooster? Last item for kappa and it’s killing me, I’m thinking about farming Shturman stash

[crisp nest]

scav case

and check the spawns

theres some keys with it behind them

and shturman too

[rose rock]

safes are good too

also reminder that scavs can spawn with labs keycard

[hollow torrent]

Safes can’t spawn rooster can they? And I’ve ran moonshine case easily over 100 times and haven’t gotten one. Gotten multiple of every other kappa item tho lmao

[crisp nest]

what about the quest that gives u one

[rose rock]

here the full shabang

[cinder umbra]

LFG First wipe level 30ish but am dead broke looking for a duo or trio looking to teach me some more fundamentals and make some money doing scavs and playing smart not unwilling to pvp (i quite enjoy it) but focused on making money DM me

[hollow torrent]

I sold the one from the quest lmao didn’t even think about it

And safes can cool, probably farm those then.

Thanks all!

[rose rock]

if you spawn near dome in reserve you got a good shot 😄

then running straight to d2 intel room's safe

[rose rock]

you in eu region?

also can anyone check if my iotv gen 4 armor shows up on your flea? its duration 0 and going for 129420 and it aint showing up my listing when i check it

[ivory ether]

just realized the pack of chlorine looks like a mega thicc bandage

[spice aspen]

you gotta uncheck "operational only" at the top

cuz its broken

[rose rock]

ooooh, gon check

yeah no wonder it doesnt sell lmao, thanks 😅

[spice aspen]

gg man

[oak solar]

LMGs/MGs always suck in FPS games because it's pretty much impossible to carry over their real world purpose to video games

Every FPS: "LMG is just a super big AR lol"

[errant jasper]

can someone put up an item on Flea for me its 16$ with peacekeeper lvl 3

[bleak barn]

U can’t put up an item u bought from traders

[ivory ether]

what happens if i level up my 153

[crisp nest]

lvl3 mastery lets u ads and reload

at same time

[ivory ether]

oh

so lvl 2 does nothing?

[crisp nest]

idk

[oak solar]

"Depending on the weapon, reaching level 2 or level 3 will provide new reload animations. Level 3 grants the ability to reload while aiming down sights for all weapons."

[ivory ether]

oh

[crisp nest]

flex basically

[oak solar]

Some of them are grouped up too

ADAR/M4A1/HK 416/TX-15 are all grouped for example

[ivory ether]

being one tapped by an ap 20 slug on long range

[crisp nest]

i 1 tapped mp7 chad with ap20 when i was running ap20 silenced 8 slot long shotgun on factory

then his buddy kektored me

[oak solar]

Saigas are my go-to budget weapon because I frequently get them in Scav runs

So much Magnum buck off raiders on reserve

I don't even bother with slugs, because why aim?

[crisp nest]

u can only get 5rnders without the quest(s) done

[pure mist]

Or 10 rounders with double the price.

[ivory ether]

ayy just absolutely shredded through this guys korund with my flechette

fuck you and your ap 20's

what a relief

also, should i sell my defender 2

ive got 2 of em but one of them isnt fir

oh fuck i just realized i forgot to get the dudes dogtag

dang

[cinder umbra]

LFG First wipe level 30ish but am dead broke looking for a duo or trio looking to teach me some more fundamentals and make some money doing scavs and playing smart not unwilling to pvp (i quite enjoy it) but focused on making money DM me

[rough scarab]

Would flechette or ap slugs be better in factory

[unreal horizon]

flechette

[rough scarab]

I have a 153 I got in a raid with slugs and not sure which ammo to use

[unreal horizon]

when all pellets hit, flechette kills faster

and in factory it isnt hard to hit all pellets

[rough scarab]

Word

[limber whale]

@rough scarab AP-20 is for penetration, really good against armor, but you need to be accurate since its a slug. flechette is for flesh damage and is easier to hit but harder to kill quickly

[unreal horizon]

flechette is for shredding armor

it does 25x8 it's certainly not a flesh round

[limber whale]

flechette does less damage then ap20 and less pen

[unreal horizon]

the point isnt the pen armor, it's to destroy it

think of flechette as 8 30 pen bullets, hitting at once

that's devestating

[light cipher]

can confirm, started and finished The Setup yesterday, had way more success switching to flechette

[crisp nest]

flechette 3 taps all armor

[unreal horizon]

I dont think this is true

could be outdated but I saw a video of 4/5 tapping class 5

[crisp nest]

ah yeah

zabralo might take 4 tbh

[unreal horizon]

anyways, it fucks up armor quickly and at close range, is more effective than ap-20

[light cipher]

AP-20 was nice for those unsuspecting Timmie's looting their scav kills. Long range face taps

[unreal horizon]

true satisfaction right there

[mystic kite]

how the heck to I remember the exits on the maps, i look for one for like 20 minutes and die every time

[carmine pelican]

NAE Servers. Fairly new to the game, looking to find some kind souls to show me the ropes. Have never had much luck in this game, but I have loved watching people stream it. I feel it's time to really dip my toes into learning the ins and outs of this game.

[crisp nest]

[dusky raven]

NAW servers. very new to the game, looking to get somebody to help me learn how to run customs or reserve or just help me learn some stuff in tarkov. any help is very appreciated.

[mystic kite]

[candid steeple]

that is very smart lmao

[rough scarab]

[coral tiger]

3by4 rig filled with everything money related lol docs cases have keys for different maps 😉

[tender tree]

[hasty edge]

anyone know if i can buy this mag from any of the traders?

[ivory ether]

mechanic

[pulsar hearth]

i think myra sells it...

[unreal horizon]

it's pretty trash, but it's cool

[hasty edge]

who is the best trader to buy ammo from

[ivory ether]

which ammo

also depends on your trader level

[ivory ether]

mechanic

[hasty edge]

[pulsar hearth]

[pulsar hearth]

yeah man hit my dms up

aint got nuthin to do

[coral tiger]

grind lvl 40 ;)^^

[unreal horizon]

I was gonna say, do you not quest?

[vast rampart]

I have come to the server in search of a game admin

Or developer

[jolly lily]

how do i approach pmc bolt kills on factory 99% of the time i play people just rush to gate 3 and rat it 3/ raids no one ever went office

3/4

[unreal horizon]

If you use a vpo with 366 ap, you can 1 tap chest if they're wearing class 4 or under

which most factory players are

if people are playing weird you can always just change up your servers

[jolly lily]

thats what im using but i cant find anybody expect extract campers

i didnt even know you could get up that red bin in gate 3 like wtf

[unreal horizon]

I think you need a boost for that, could be wrong

[frail pewter]

7N1 in mosin does the same

[jolly lily]

gg to that duded got a vpo and pca thought lol

[frail pewter]

prob more expensive tho

[unreal horizon]

yeah but it's about twice the price

[jolly lily]

vpo is a third of the rpice also

3x

i mean

[frail pewter]

ye

that probably is part of the reason I am now poor

[unreal horizon]

but mosin man gets +30 to all stats so it works

[frail pewter]

went through like 1.5mil on that quest just on mosin obrez and a little bit of 7n1 over and over

kept getting aimbotted by scavs and running into lobbies with no players

[jolly lily]

my first raid with mosin i insta died to vector ayltn dude and next raid i went vpo and got 1 kill i feel like vpo is way to go

[unreal horizon]

There were some serious chads on factory today

I was warming up with a 5-7 and got rolled by a raid bag altyn man

[jolly lily]

at least its only 3 kill for task i only need 2 more thats a rip

[unreal horizon]

you'll get it soon, factory is just kinda rng

soon you'll get a factory of noobs and be done with it

[jolly lily]

it feel so weird to take bolt fact also but tthats the only map i feel i get dudes under 25m

[crisp nest]

docs or money case, docs is better usually

[unreal horizon]

a rig filled with wallets is a cheap money case with lots of space, the down side is you have to organize it manually

[crisp nest]

yeah thats the cheapest way by far

use mppv

docs cases are most efficient for the price

money case is like 3% better

[jolly lily]

IS Fact office form sky bridge wall bangable

i heard a guy sky bridge and he shot me through wall

[steady dome]

i got this game on christmas but i recently started playing it more but man is it rough i just dont feel like im improving

[crisp nest]

no

if u were in hallway theres windows

[unreal horizon]

maybe you got desync'd or headshot through one of the windows

[jolly lily]

i was in office

his name was tan is sus

i heard sky bridge metal turn around from safe and got one tapped in head

he also 1 tapped me with a pm pistol with the shit ammo

[crisp nest]

lmao

https://tenor.com/view/csgo-brutale-hacking-spinning-spinbot-gif-14637986

got hacked on

[jolly lily]

that was so effiy though im almost 200% sure that wasn't legit

wish i had shadow play on

at that mommetnt

i had a face shield also it made no sense

[unreal horizon]

what helmet? I suppose it's possible you got head, ears

but still from what you've said I think cheater

[jolly lily]

i killed a altyn dude with paca in chest is where i got helmet and he 1 tapped me head eyes though a wall and altyn with a full hp pm psitol

[unreal horizon]

not sus at all lmfao

yeah that's just unfortunate

[jolly lily]

ima swith servers tbh i was on the cali one

his name was tanissus also

[crisp nest]

theres hacks that let you 1 hit people

but they get detected quick

from what ive heard

something like that

[rough scarab]

Nice cover

[crisp nest]

or was it they somehow get more pen

it was on some reddit clip

of a hacker

using low pen ammo vs altyn

[jolly lily]

still tilts me though i dont even have the momentum now to go back in and get last Jagger kill

[crisp nest]

wjhat quest

[jolly lily]

the Jagger bolt under 25 m

[crisp nest]

ah

vpo/mosin on factory

i like vpo with the cobra sight

trust me it works wonders

[jolly lily]

i was using vpo iron sight

[crisp nest]

oh

[jolly lily]

its gotten me 2 out of 3 already so it works

[open jay]

do you need keys do get good loot in reserve?

[rough scarab]

Is farming shturman guards viable

[unreal horizon]

given that he has a 30-some percent chance of spawning, not really

[crisp nest]

yes

[rough scarab]

I’m debating it cause I like going through lumber on woods so if I can get the guards I might try it

[open jay]

@crisp nest ahh theres so many keys for reserve lol. guess ill have to learn them hehe

[unreal horizon]

better ways to make money on woods then shturman

[crisp nest]

marked keys are cheap but contested

so cheap just get them

1 use pays them off basically

[unreal horizon]

don't buy reserve marked rooms, they're glorified gun spawns

theyre good not great

[crisp nest]

they're good if u go past them

in a dead raid

[unreal horizon]

particularly the black pawn basement, that one's awful

[crisp nest]

yeah thats true

the intel spawn one is nice

[unreal horizon]

the bunker one as expensive, but as a resident of d-2 I grab it every time

[rough scarab]

It’s ratting one of them

[unreal horizon]

the right side of woods is a gold mine

med camp, wooden cabin town, and town by bridge

[rough scarab]

Word

[unreal horizon]

even just med camp, grab the goldenstar and rng sugar and you're doing great

[open jay]

true

golden stars and vaseline

opthalmoscopes too

i butchered that

[unreal horizon]

looks good to me

lol

[rough scarab]

The med camp is by ruaf roadblock right

[coral tiger]

correcty

[rough scarab]

Damn guess I haven’t looked in the right spot for the golden star

[unreal horizon]

it's on a metal shelf on the top right corner

little orange dot on one of the bottom rows, can't miss it

[rough scarab]

Alright gotta check next time I go there

I got blessed by the ration crates there, managed to find all the croutons and canned beef for jaeger in one raid

[jolly lily]

this game tilts me hit a due 4 times in chest with snb mosin and he lived an 1 tapped me with a axe in arm

like how

[rough scarab]

Cheats maybe

Also ate you sure all 4 hits registered

[silver hornet]

Entirely possible that you tagged their arms or stomach

But a left arm kill with one hit from a melee? def strange.

[jolly lily]

he hit me in left arm once and it says dead Collateral from melee like ??

how doe a axe in arm make me die to head from one hitt

[silver hornet]

Only way I can even see that happening is MAYBE some guy with max strength hitting you with the M2 Sword, and proccing a critical hit

[jolly lily]

its was a axe

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/File:Crash_axe.png it was this

dude swung it like 5 times to hit me in arm once and die

guess today aint my day

[ivory ether]

should i sell m433

instantaneous fuse 40mm grenade

[cerulean spruce]

Does HK or Fal have either decent recoil/ergo?

[silver hornet]

FAL recoil builds have terrible ergo

[sour plume]

my HK from (last year lmao)

i doubt prices changed that much since i got it all either from traders or cheapest from market

but it was around 150k

generally guns are either going to have bad/med ergo and good recoil, good ergo and meh recoil or okayish both

without spending 300k for a meta m4 or fal lul

[cerulean spruce]

Oh hk shoots 5.45x45

So HK is just a cheaper M4?

Or not really?

[sour plume]

5.56x45

lol

it's generally a more expensive m4

which shoots faster

[cerulean spruce]

Oh ok

[sturdy harbor]

Does insurance on weapons guarantee me getting it back?

[sour plume]

no

[sturdy harbor]

ok

[sour plume]

you'll get it back as long as no player takes it out of the raid

[sturdy harbor]

if I play against npc's, then?

[sour plume]

if a player extracts with it, it's gone. if it's still in the raid when the raid ends and nobody else takes it, you'll get it back in whatever condition it was in when the raid ended

[sturdy harbor]

nice, thank you

[ivory ether]

ok but why is there a geared pmc with a vector just prone crawling smack dab through the center of interchange??

like right in the open too

[sour plume]

if you die to AI, you will probably keep it unless a player finds your body and loots you

dummy probably

[ivory ether]

he killed me, fuck

[sour plume]

lol

[sturdy harbor]

How much does escape from tarkov currently cost? (I have been playing on my brothers PC, but I would like to buy it too)

I dont seem to find any information on where to buy it, neither on steam, nor epic games

[ember pendant]

https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/preorder-page

[sturdy harbor]

ok thanks

after I bought the game, lets say I chose USEC. Will I be able to play in a team with BEAR players too?

[hot tree]

@sturdy harbor you can group with any players

[sturdy harbor]

sounds great

[hot tree]

but dont group with random people they might kill you

or more like they will kill you ;d

[sturdy harbor]

so teamkilling is not punishable?

[sturdy harbor]

okay xD

[hot tree]

no

[sturdy harbor]

kk

[silver hornet]

in this discord, yes, in game, no

[sturdy harbor]

nice

[narrow tendon]

wtf do u do for food under level 10

u are only limited to 5 crackers per restock which is only like 2 raids at most

i just dont understand

[native tartan]

woods has a ton of food

just loot ration crates

[narrow tendon]

yeah ig so

[native tartan]

and the sugar that you get from it is 70k each once you get the flea

[cinder hound]

dont u just

scav run and get food

[native tartan]

yup you passively regen food as well

[ivory ether]

im gonna go full auto on my scav sa58

this is going to be a good one

[hexed ore]

any fellas in Australia or oceania able to help a level 8?

[compact zenith]

What can I do exactly to combat player scavs that one tap me?

I don't want to shoot every scav in sight because then they'll gang up on me

But I haven't played a scav run for a few days which would have lasted more than a minute because of this

[rocky stone]

I do my best to act like a bot but those player scavs usually are just running around wiping everything, so it doesn’t help much. Outside of that I try to avoid highly contested areas and bolt whenever I hear footsteps/hide and wait

[open jay]

i went through literally every pc inside the interchange mall and power station 2x

am i just really unlucky with flash drive spawns or have they changed where they spawn

[naive depot]

flash drive spawns are miserable

i hear people get them in filing cabinets these days

[open jay]

thats a spawn for them now? damn ok

[rocky stone]

They appear like crazy once ur done with the quest, I’ve had three flash drive scavs back to back already lol

[open jay]

lmfao

[rocky stone]

Is ur Intel lvl 2? U can craft em

[open jay]

literally only need 1 for jaegar

im not spending a mil on intelligence center 2 xd

sadge.

[rocky stone]

But Bitcoin farm 😦

[open jay]

too late in the wipe for me to feasibly build that up ha

[rocky stone]

If you rat run oli twice/three times successfully you can get that 1m

Fair enough

[open jay]

i mean

i have enough money

but like

i dont want to wait and spend money and daiasjfalfhafa

[rocky stone]

I get what u mean lmao

[open jay]

literally .01 rep off jaegar

for royal

then fuck quests and im 4funning running around

[rocky stone]

Bro I was like that two weeks ago and I was falling apart tryna rank him up

[open jay]

his quests are brutal haha

[rocky stone]

Finally got eagle eye done during a labs raid

I did the survivalist path thirst or whatever to rank him up only to find out it gave no rep

0/10 moment

[open jay]

yep i know that feel

i just did his tarkov shooter quests

not terrible cuz i was leaning woods expansion at the time

[rocky stone]

Fair enough, I honestly don’t wanna deal with woods yet

I’m bad enough at finding people at mid range I don’t wanna know what it’s like while fighting schturman

[bronze laurel]

well shturman is kinda easy to avoid. also he is usually dead within the first 10 mins

[rocky stone]

Last like three times I was there I ran to shack 3 with 20 minutes left and saw him 360’ing people it was terrifying

[bronze laurel]

hahaha, ye he is kinda scary if you acctually can't sneak up on him and onetap. Fun boss

[rocky stone]

I’ll give him a shot once I’m better at navigating the game, I’ll probably hard focus questing again before wipes over so I can get some shoreline and woods knowledge

[ivory ether]

ive made almost 2 mil today from scaving feelsokayman

[bronze laurel]

if you just started now is indeed a good time to just learn and not stress so much. Wipe will probably be soonish (1-2 months) hopefully and after that everyone is back to square 1. So getting whatever experience until that is great if you plan on going hard after wipe

[sturdy harbor]

is it the standard edition everyone is playing?

whats the difference between these?

[ember pendant]

It says on that page.

Id imagine most people are EOD at this point. You can always upgrade

[sturdy harbor]

oh I see

so if I dont want extra items, I will be fine with standard...

[ember pendant]

Start with standard and see if you like it. You'll get a bigger stash / container / more rep with traders as you go up levels.

[sturdy harbor]

okay

thanks for your assistance

[rocky stone]

It’s essentially a 44mil rouble boost spread amongst gear, and base upgrades. Great for early game, I’m still on standard tho

[naive depot]

i went 1.5 wipes before upgrading to eod

[bronze laurel]

yea if you just started playing don't by EoD. EoD only worth if you are going to put like thousands of hours into the game

[rocky stone]

I’m deciding at the beginning of the next wipe if it’s worth it, I’ve gotta play the early game again and see if I’m gonna be sticking with the game

[hot tree]

i'll wait for sale or something

[bronze spoke]

Are RB-VO keys rare?

I got 2 in 2 raids back to back (except I died in the second one so I only kept one but still)

[sturdy harbor]

I have bought it now, but how do I download it?

I cant see a download button

[hot tree]

@sturdy harbor its should be in your profile

at the top right

[sturdy harbor]

Oh

found it thanks

[bronze laurel]

oooh snap, welcome to Tarkov. Enjoy your deaths

[sturdy harbor]

xDD

[hot tree]

[sturdy harbor]

I have played it on my brother's pc already, I am fine with dying.

[bronze laurel]

ah but you see, then it wasn't "your" gear that you lost ^^

[hot tree]

what level was he

[sturdy harbor]

very low

and I would accept losing my gear too

I wouldnt be extremely happy of course, but its part of the game

[bronze spoke]

If you want my advice as a lvl 7 pleb who started recently, accept that you'll lose gear and just work on getting more confidence

[bronze laurel]

jokes aside, enjoy the game dude! It's punishing abd has one hell of a learning curve. But there is no game that gets the adreanalin going like tarkov!

[bronze spoke]

When I play with more confidence I play better

[sturdy harbor]

thanks for the tips 😄

[bronze spoke]

When I have no confidence I get jumpscared when I get shot and dont even properly react to getting shot

[hot tree]

^ thats me

[bronze spoke]

Usually just jump in place while spinning around in panic

[sturdy harbor]

xD

[bleak barn]

how tf did the sniper scav one shot me in thorax when im wearing 55 dur m2

[bronze laurel]

playing with confidence and still getting jumpscared. yesterday my mouse flew of the desk, i died

[hot tree]

the worst jumpscare imo is when you have an helmet and get a headshot

[bronze laurel]

ye those are bad lol

[naive depot]

those get me every time

[remote kettle]

you were tagged before, LPS GZH doesnt onetap thorax, and with a tagged up M2 LPS is going through

[hot tree]

thats why i dont wear helmets anymore 😎 kappa

[bleak barn]

the thing is I know i didnt get tagged at all b4

[remote kettle]

well i know you did because LPS GZH leaves thorax at 4 HP

[bleak barn]

i mean my m2 is repaired once and is at 55 durability

[remote kettle]

people dont wear helmets then complain about getting onetapped by BS timmies and shotgun scavs lol

[bleak barn]

man i spawned at the closest spot to gas station and ran there

i see not a single scav or pmc

thats why i post this here cuz it doesnt make sense lol

[remote kettle]

either you were tagged before or you got slammed with fragmentation on the bullet

with fragmentation LPS does 120 damage

which oneshots thorax

[bleak barn]

oh yea if theres that chance then thats definitely it

[remote kettle]

and LPS like i said goes straight through level 4 armor

[bleak barn]

tarkoved i guess

thx for that extra info

[bold kernel]

I just bought the game and got unknown toxic on my first spawn, i cant play my character at all and cant buy an antidote what the hell do i do?

[shy kayak]

Cultists knifed

[remote kettle]

if you didnt pay for healing post raid you wait and it goes away

[shy kayak]

Rip

[bold kernel]

oh ok

thx

[shy kayak]

Moses were u stabbed

[bold kernel]

yes

[remote kettle]

usually takes 40 minutes to an hour depending on other damage

[bold kernel]

m,any times

[bleak barn]

that is such an experience

[shy kayak]

Yea that's a cultists knife

Mym

[bleak barn]

gotta love tarkov

[bold kernel]

lmao

[shy kayak]

Mhm

I just wandered and died when istarted

[bleak barn]

getting knifed by cultists is lowkey the most dramatic start

[shy kayak]

Yea welcome to tarkov

[bold kernel]

ahahha

[remote kettle]

i just got wrecked by pmcs 😑

[shy kayak]

Yea it's hard joining late wipr

Wipe

Slick m4 Chad's everywhere

[hot tree]

i mean they are killable my who played as a scav killed one

[bleak barn]

2 shotgun to the stomach yes

[open jay]

is my flee bugged or is ortho toothpaste 80k rn

what the shit.

it was going for around 20k recently...

whats the best laser in tarkov?

[ember pendant]

Prob Dbal

Has laser / IR / Flashlight

[drifting jolt]

they all offer the same accuracy buff

[open jay]

im aware but

ir offers less accuracy right?

than laser is what ive heard

[bold kernel]

its the same

[remote kettle]

if you have a tactical device it gives the boost

thats why people run the super dim red laser thing, its almost impossible to see but it still gives the point fire buff

[open jay]

gotcha

which device does that?

the cheapest is what i would prefer since all the irs have the same effect

so any ir lasers?

[bold kernel]

every tan one

[open jay]

kk

[remote kettle]

the tan ones have the dim red light i think

[open jay]

so theres really no advantage of the laser then ig?

[remote kettle]

like we said lasers reduce hipfire recoil, and also gives you "crosshair" to improve target acquisition

[open jay]

i meant laser over ir

if the hipfire recoil reduction is the same then ig its just target aquisition

[remote kettle]

its personal preference

also i dont know the difference between IR and lasers tbf

if there even is a difference

[dark cedar]

Yoo

Can some1 help me get bronze pocketwatch

[open jay]

try night riads cheif

raids chief*

[sturdy harbor]

how can I switch to online mode?

[prisma stirrup]

you simply press next 🙂

if you want to play offline select the check box

[sturdy harbor]

but it says my progress wont be saved because I am in offline mode xD

[prisma stirrup]

but you did not check offline mode

[sturdy harbor]

oh okay

so I'm in online currently...

[prisma stirrup]

thats just a warning if you do decide to play offline mode

yea you are

[sturdy harbor]

okay, thank you

[prisma stirrup]

offline when you die to a scav or what ever you dont lose anytrhing but if you extract you dont gain anything either

its just for testing stuff or practising killing scavs/learning maps

[sturdy harbor]

okay, thanks

[gloomy fulcrum]

So im lvl11 and have 2,5mil what should i do with it? Buy weapons?

[hot tree]

i would buy lucky scav junkbox and some other containers

saves spaces

[bold kernel]

containers

i've barely bought a single gun ever just get it from players/raiders i kill

[gloomy fulcrum]

Ooh thats a great idea!

What containers should i get first?

[quaint inlet]

Anyone who wants to make some time for me? I am currently lvl 5 and seeking around the map on singleplayer mode. I ened someone who can help me to read the map. I can livestream

hit me up!

[drifting jolt]

post a screenshot?

we can tell you where you are

[mighty jasper]

i reccomend the lucky scav junkbox

[drifting jolt]

^

then probably ammo ase

*case

[mighty jasper]

yeah or magbox

[compact zenith]

By the way, you can quickly screenshot with print screen

[gloomy fulcrum]

Dayum thats expensive

Is there like a case for meds too?

[naive depot]

yep

[drifting jolt]

cases for everything in the game basically

[celest sage]

Don’t get a meds case for a while, get the lbt backpack

It’s a discount version

[bold kernel]

WOAH

THEY FIXED GHOST NADES

oo shit we got new stuff as well 😏

nevermind 😦

[celest sage]

Patch notes?

[bold kernel]

oo nades were fixed last patch

but i'll send the new ones

Yeah nades were the patch before this

[drifting jolt]

flickering shadows? is that the light flashes or?

i wonder

[bold kernel]

could be

[celest sage]

That was last update

[bold kernel]

i swear they've "fixed" the interchange thing like 4 times now lol

[drifting jolt]

i wish i could have gotten on top of interchange, that sounds fun lol

[bold kernel]

I just had the update today lol

[celest sage]

That update was a couple of weeks ago bruh

I thought there was a new update

[bold kernel]

lmao ig my tarkov doesn't like updating normal

woopsies

besides that

im using a DT MDR, should i even mod it? you think just a suppressor wil lwork

[drifting jolt]

it doesnt really have many mods

[bold kernel]

well its stupid rn

i can't mod anything on it currently really

does anyone know which vendor has the 4.1 inch guide?

[drifting jolt]

it's a mid-tier+ weapon

[bold kernel]

since i REALLY need to unlock them

people tryna sell it on flea for 120k

I equally find it crazy that a colour can make something have a 50k difference.

!ballistics

!ballistic

heyyy anyone know it?

[celest sage]

For mdr I’d suggest just adding a sight, foregrip, and being done

There’s not a lot more you can do or need to do

[bold kernel]

i added a suppressor as well

is that bad?

should i take dat off

[celest sage]

No you can keep it

It’s just not necessary

[bold kernel]

will the flea be as fucked next wipe as it is this wipe?

[thorny nebula]

Guys I’m on my last quest I just need a teapot

[bold kernel]

everything is just surged in price.

[celest sage]

Fucked in what way

[thorny nebula]

Any tips ?

[celest sage]

Who knows

[bold kernel]

@thorny nebula find a teapot

[celest sage]

Everything is hella expensive at the start

[bold kernel]

obv

[thorny nebula]

Where they spawn doe

[bold kernel]

uh

safes

[celest sage]

Safes

[bold kernel]

so pick a map basically, they all have a safe.

factory, customs, i'd pick one of them lol

or shoreline i think they're a few outside of resort

[celest sage]

I’d go for dorms or cottages, maybe resort since nobody is there anyway

[bold kernel]

next wipe should you be focusing on hideout

i don't really get the part, i did nothing to it really this wipe since i joined way way late

[minor lantern]

Well ill say so

ill say rush the bit coin farm as fast as you can

free money

[celest sage]

Yeah but scav runs are pretty cool too

[minor lantern]

True

[bold kernel]

how do i get the scavs who run for me

what do you upgrade

[bold kernel]

sheesh thats expensive

is it worth?

[minor lantern]

i think this is what nero is talking about

well last wipe i got a green card from it

so ill say so

[bold kernel]

gotcha

thats about a mill to get a case right?

[minor lantern]

yea ill say about a mil

maybe 1.5m

[bronze spoke]

Is there a way to move the game to my SSD without having to completely reinstall? And also will that help with the icons of things loading faster in shops?

[minor lantern]

xut sadly i dont think there is a way

and the shop thing is usually from a new update

But it might because your not on a ssd

[bronze spoke]

Well moving the game to my SSD sounds like a good idea regardless considering I'm playing it more than I expected when I was installing it so I'll do it either way

[minor lantern]

yea same here

when i got the game i was like im not putting this on my ssd then i started playing a lot so i deleted it and put it on my ssd over night

[reef prairie]

in the launcher under settings you can change the game directory

[celest sage]

No definitely not

[celest sage]

Make sure when you get scav case you have 10-20m extra you don’t plan on doing anything with

Probably more

[bold kernel]

WHY?

caps

[celest sage]

Basically you run it over and over constantly for weeks possibly months until you get lucky and get like a red rebel or something

[bold kernel]

o

okay

[celest sage]

I personally ram mine for 16 hours a day for a month or two and had nothing but huge losses so I gave up

[bold kernel]

oh shi

okay maybe i don't get one

[celest sage]

It’s a late game money sink

It’s not for profit it’s for gambling, for GLORY

[bold kernel]

btc seems more fun

i'll take that

[south thorn]

@bronze spoke you should be able to move it, I think the launcher tells you to pick the installation location, where you moved the files.

[coral tiger]

so i just dragged and dropped them from original location to ssd location and picked the new install path in the launcher 🙂

[bold kernel]

Why do i do so much better on scav runs?

I start out with a TOZ, kill a scav for a MP-153 then kill this dude...

what da fak

thanks ig

[ember pendant]

Number of things. Less PMCs, less gear fear, less perceived threats.

Good haul though dude.

[bold kernel]

how you play

you aren't scared of losing your gear

so you play a lot more aggresively

true i did sprint at this man xd

going PMC adds the stress of generating profit

and you play a lot worse cause of it

not just safer but somtiems worse lmao, you spend time thinking about stuff that don't matter

the med case is half full as well lmao

what a man

[ember pendant]

He was also an overweight turtle while you were agile like a rabbit.

[bold kernel]

yeah i hate that they got rid of FIR

this is how i made all my money

[ember pendant]

Implemented FIR you mean?

[bold kernel]

i'd kill chads, sell their shit, make budget kits, repeat until im stonking

yeah

[ember pendant]

Eh. I use most of the armor / ammo I get off people now.

I suppose being able to sell gun parts was neat back in the day though.

[bold kernel]

I only have 500k so i can't really yet.

[ember pendant]

Well you just double your profits with the med case, red gp, 2 bolts, fuel con.

[tame fog]

looking to run duos with someone thats willing to teach me this game. Anybody down?

[coral hull]

can some one do some runs with me

[ember pendant]

If you don't get bites here, Wright, try #pvp-lfg. Another alternative is hopping in a Beginners Assistance channel. For a more formal walkthrough you could get a sherpa (info under #sherpa-info)

[bold kernel]

im doing reserve money runs

[bold kernel]

doing reserve money runs, im down to show the map if you feel

o nice new patch

[thick beacon]

can someone help me with the bad rep evidence task?

[pure mist]

is it the one where you go to customs and get a file?

[thick beacon]

yeah

[pure mist]

sorry i'm in a lecture right now can't help you

[thick beacon]

no problem

[pure mist]

my advice is: go at night

bring food and water wait til last 10mins

[thick beacon]

ill try that

[pure mist]

yea, this way there no pmc

[amber sage]

You in the Sherpahub discord? might find some help there
Check out #sherpa-info

[thick beacon]

ok

[compact token]

Just got 800k loot in the reserve bunker and then got one shot at exfil by a mosin scav

[stone hemlock]

Does anyone have the issue when you first open the launcher it says ur in game, then when you close and reopen it, it gives you an error, then it works the next time you close and repoen?

or know how to fix it

[pure mist]

rip

[solid ingot]

Im not really "new" to the game but Im really bad could anyone give me some pointers?

[bold kernel]

hows this gun ?

[pure mist]

kinda meta

if ur going for meta there is a better silencer

[cosmic tinsel]

its frustratingly 90% of the way to meta

[pure mist]

yea

[bold kernel]

xd i found it and only added a 1-6 scope and a trijon

what supressor do i add?

[cosmic tinsel]

focus on surviving, not killing. if you have to fight, push into the other person to exploit latency. prefire as much as you can, and pointfire almost always

[bold kernel]

hello guys!

pss meevo what am i missing

[small cairn]

[bold kernel]

[small cairn]

[cosmic tinsel]

rk-2, shift, or canted grip

[solid ingot]

ty ty

[bold kernel]

which muzzle attachment thing does rk-2 take?

[bold kernel]

ohhh

[cosmic tinsel]

rk-2 a foregrip

[pure mist]

this one

[bold kernel]

which suppressor do i need?

ah

[pure mist]

if your going for recoil

[cosmic tinsel]

the sdn is great but used to be too expensive to use

[pure mist]

yea if youre going for meta might as well

[bold kernel]

for an extra 1 recoil is a 80k suppressor REALLY worth it?
