Craft them

[bleak condor]

need to find in raid for skier

[unreal horizon]

yeah

crafting = fir

[small cairn]

They can spawn "in" pc's and also you can find them in safes etc.

easiest is to just craft them tho

[thorny phoenix]

I swear nvgs looked way better when I got them from a pmc

[small cairn]

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

[thorny phoenix]

now when I use them they are like worse

[thorny phoenix]

I found a few when they were "dropped" in front of PC

just unplugged

that's how I got the skier quest done quick

[small cairn]

Yeah Idk how to explain that, so I just wrote "in"

[bleak condor]

ain't got intel center

[thorny phoenix]

foreigners, assemble

[bleak condor]

lol, need the folder

[unreal horizon]

get on that, you want bitcoin

[carmine sierra]

any tips for getting money on peacekeeper spent up for lvl 2 PK? im lvl with not that much money

[small cairn]

Just buy dollars from PK, since they are very useful and you also need them for quests

[unreal horizon]

+1 to that you can never have too many dollars

[thorny phoenix]

why am I so stressed to go out with that gear

[bleak condor]

lol, you need flash drives for intel lvl 2

[unreal horizon]

because you have a class 6 armor at lvl 14

[bleak condor]

where the best place to find computers

[unreal horizon]

also you're using m61, by that logic, why would you wear a c6?

[carmine sierra]

@small cairn i dont have the 1.2 mil to do that though

[unreal horizon]

you can buy them

[thorny phoenix]

is m61 2nd highest pen for 7 62 51?

[unreal horizon]

idk if 993 is higher

everyone just uses m61

[thorny phoenix]

I think it is but it also has like a little Lower damage

[unreal horizon]

its pens c6 thats what matters

[unreal horizon]

irrelevant

still 2 taps thorax

[thorny phoenix]

I just had 5 mil but spent it all on funny upgrades

[small cairn]

Second highest pen, but 993 just overpens

[thorny phoenix]

I swear I shot a guy 6 times into thorax with m61 and he didn't die despite yelling every time

[unreal horizon]

you hit stomach then

[thorny phoenix]

could be

was too dark anyways

[cosmic tinsel]

another good use for shadowplay

[thorny phoenix]

would reserve be a good map to learn now? I memorized customs and interchange af

[daring trench]

i checked file integeraty and it still kicks me out every 3 seconds

[small cairn]

Eh, its good to know, but it is more important to learn quest maps

[daring trench]

does anybody know how to fix anticheat connection failed

[last agate]

BP or SP ammo

[daring trench]

it keeps popping up and the game is literally unplayable

[last agate]

@daring trench try updating all of your drivers

[wary valley]

i am hearing so many gunshots at dorms

time to wait 10 minutes then go loot

[last agate]

a friend had a similiar issue with an RGB keyboard driver being out of date

[daring trench]

bro idek what a driver is. im very tech smart lmao

[thorny phoenix]

oh that's an issue hen

[last agate]

its what controls your video card, keyboard or anything else. it tells windows how to use it.

[ivory ether]

theres going to be a day where i accidentally go into an online raid instead of an offline raid with my best gear and ill lose it

[thorny phoenix]

or you come out on top with 5 slicks in your hand

[wary valley]

bro i hear so many goddamn grenades

[last agate]

just do a windows update and see what happens lol

or a video card update

[wary valley]

how long u think i need to wait till the big kitted war at dorms to end

[last agate]

something is out of date

[wary valley]

isn't there like a thing

[last agate]

or i could be completely wrong lol

[wary valley]

where u can check every drive on windows

go to device manager

[boreal kraken]

(New Player) Looking for 1 or 2 guys to play some reserve with. I was told it was the best map apart from labs to make money on, so id like to learn it. 18+

[wary valley]

probably gonna find ur stuff there

[daring trench]

it says my progess iusnt being saved because i m in offline mode but the box isnt ticked off

[wary valley]

just got service connection loss

[daring trench]

ill try that now

[wary valley]

lmao

well im hiding in a bush anyway so

[edgy tinsel]

What is the best 9x19 ammo?

[wary valley]

ima go check dorms when i get back

[last agate]

thats because the game is in beta

[thorny phoenix]

@wary valley do you also go prone in a bush and check your ammo on website or map?

[last agate]

its just a warning if you do play offline it will not save

[unreal horizon]

7n31

[last agate]

BP OR SP AMMO lol

[wary valley]

i do but i heard some BIG kitted fight on dorms

so i was waiting over there

[hushed jungle]

is it smart to buy my way to btc farm rn?

i have 2.7 million

im level 10

[wary valley]

lmao

[unreal horizon]

i'd rush it

[wary valley]

when i was lv 10 i had 800k

xd

[tropic remnant]

any1 able to help me with some woods quests? i am watching guides and trying to use a map but i still get lost and die..
i need help with search mission and supply plans

[wary valley]

now i went from 1.8k to 1.40 in like 8 raids

[hushed jungle]

TEACH ME HOW

[daring trench]

do i update them all?

[hushed jungle]

I NEED TARKOV PRIME

[wary valley]

what

[last agate]

it wont update if it doesnt need to

[wary valley]

1 million 800k to 1 million 400k

u wanna know how to do that?

[hushed jungle]

yes

[last agate]

it will tell you tho when you click update driver

[wary valley]

basically die

[hushed jungle]

i would lose like a million if i were u

[wary valley]

buy gear

then die and buy gear

[daring trench]

where is the update driver button tho

[wary valley]

insurance everything

[daring trench]

im in the device manager where youtube man said to go

[wary valley]

insurance is like an investment

just click around and left click for update drivers

and the reason why it is an investment is

[daring trench]

do i scan for hardware changes?

[wary valley]

no

[last agate]

click the search bar and type windows update, if something is out of date it SHOULD pop up there

[wary valley]

click on these

so it goes down

[wary valley]

or do that

[daring trench]

yeah, so do i do them all seperately

[wary valley]

idk this is probably smarter

[last agate]

if that is even the problem to begin with

[daring trench]

im up to date

[unreal horizon]

to all of you looking for flashdrives lmao

[last agate]

reddit lol idk

🤷‍♂️

[thorny phoenix]

ok time to run this gear at night customs on ukraine servers

[unreal horizon]

[thorny phoenix]

inb4, ukraine servers have the highest matching time 24/7 and im afraid of people

[unreal horizon]

yikes

[thorny phoenix]

judge me, im jus tbad

[pure mist]

Afraid of people, use less expensive load outs and try to pvp

[daring trench]

didnt work :/

[thorny phoenix]

its not like im afraid of them like scared to pvp

im just always late to every hot spot

[pure mist]

Aim lab to get confidence in aiming?

[wary valley]

and my rat strategy of waiting was right

do you know how many dead bodies are in this dorms?

[pure mist]

Don’t go to hotspots if you don’t have good spawn

[thorny phoenix]

5

[wary valley]

9 dead

[thorny phoenix]

oh damn

its so late into wipe people throw away full hp korunds from bodies and bastions

rats heaven

[wary valley]

they looted it all lmao

[thorny phoenix]

OH

[last agate]

io sucks

[pure mist]

I’m more confident in squads, maybe that’ll work for you?

[wary valley]

[wary valley]

[unreal horizon]

well not really if you have intel center

[cinder abyss]

[unreal horizon]

[cinder abyss]

trust me id know

[hushed jungle]

whats fir

sorry i mean

FIR

[cinder abyss]

found in raid

[hushed jungle]

oh

lol

[cinder abyss]

u can craft them but it takes long

[hushed jungle]

yo what servers give that good cache loot

i hit 100 caches and nothing good

[cinder abyss]

thats not a server thing lol

[hushed jungle]

ik lol

[ripe totem]

think he means map

[cinder abyss]

ahh

[hushed jungle]

whats the tarkov prime server

nah i mean exactly what i mean

miami servers suck hot ass for loot lol

atlanta used to work

[ripe totem]

loot is not server based

[cinder abyss]

i just play on us all

[ripe totem]

as far as im aware that is any way

[hushed jungle]

ik i just want tarkov prime server lol

my friend sent me that shit

how

[ripe totem]

just plays alot

[hushed jungle]

he did "one stash run"

all found in raid shit

[ripe totem]

yeah

1 stash run on like customs could easly get that

thats not alot

[hushed jungle]

oh on customs?

[cinder abyss]

i dont stash run so i wouldnt know

[hushed jungle]

ive been doing intererchange

[small cairn]

@hushed jungle You can consistently (assuming you don't meet to many players) get that kinda loot on reserve by farming raiders, same applies for labs

[wary valley]

loot reveal from customs rat scavange

[hushed jungle]

i couldnt fucking shoot a scav with a meta m4 infront of me

[small cairn]

[grim reef]

Good build?

[agile oracle]

LFG Customs #15
I'm doing The Extortionist and BP Depot

[cinder abyss]

meh

[thorny phoenix]

havent faced raiders once, are they just scavs on steroids?

[grim reef]

Not looking for best in slot, but decent enough

[cinder abyss]

i guess theyre very easy

[hushed jungle]

yeah i got insta taped by a raider on reserve before

[cinder abyss]

raiders are easy just dont peak the same angle twice

[unreal horizon]

its ok

[small cairn]

Decent m4, its almost as if every thing you have one is 2nd BIS

[ripe totem]

shotgun scavs give me more issue then raiders

[unreal horizon]

i'd change pistol grip and put the sight on a riser

and MOE stock with rbp

[small cairn]

I would also change the stock

[cinder abyss]

change the charge handle

[unreal horizon]

eh bigger problems tbh

but yes

[wary valley]

wtf

50k bag is massive

[cinder abyss]

put rk 2 on it

[unreal horizon]

lmao

wut

the ergo is already fucked and tbh 43 vert is ok

considering silencer isnt BIS

[deep gyro]

ayo can someone help me with tasks

[cinder abyss]

its an m4 u dont need a fuck ton of ergo work on recoil

[unreal horizon]

I just disagree

also he likely doesnt have skier 3

[cinder abyss]

u must hold angles then

[unreal horizon]

easy way to get clapped lmao

if you hold an angle you lose

[cinder abyss]

exactly lol thats why i work on recoil

[unreal horizon]

go fire a 43 vert m4, it feels fine

just feel like a loud m4

[manic shard]

Anyone willing to help me out. Im pretty new. I know the basic but could still learn alot.

[cinder abyss]

i usually only use 37 below 43 feels high to me

but i also have level 4 traders

[unreal horizon]

I only use low 30s but I cant say that 40s is bad

still a good gun

[cinder abyss]

for budget 40's is fine i have no need to run budget tho

not a bad gun needs work

[thorny phoenix]

its 21 already night?

[unreal horizon]

like twilight

iirc 22 is dark

[cinder abyss]

21:30 is night

[thorny phoenix]

thanks

damn the community is so helpful it seems like the game is dying

[cinder abyss]

people just want wipe

[vivid ember]

yeah i thought it would be a lot less assisting

[unreal horizon]

i wouldnt say dying

[thorny phoenix]

its not dying ofc

[unreal horizon]

just less busy now that everyone is done every objective lol

[thorny phoenix]

its like, im used to seeing helpful communities in games that are dying to gather new players

[cinder abyss]

scav case garbage today

[unreal horizon]

game's just not super fun rn so some people arent playing

running around and destroying people with a laser beam gets old REALLY fast

[cinder abyss]

everyone super rich cause of bitcoin from early wipe

[vivid ember]

btw if my scav has like a pp-19, a kedr, or a ppsh (some 9 mil smg like that) would i have better luck ghoing for the head or legs?

[unreal horizon]

the reversal on bitcoin is the dumbest shit i've ever seen

i'm already rich for the wipe but the new player just has a harder time

its stupid and just fucks over new people

[cinder abyss]

i think its fine tbh

[vivid ember]

yeah its tough especially on the more popular maps

[cinder abyss]

barter should be the same as before but u cant gamma tetriz

[small cairn]

It is as they say: The rich get richer

I actually started the worst possible time

I got all 50 GPU while they were 1,8 mil and had them for like 2 weeks before drop

[unreal horizon]

lmfao

rip

[small cairn]

Just made the grind more fun

that aside, atleast it made me spend time on something

at this point Idk what to even do in tarkov

[unreal horizon]

im grinding night factory rn to farm scavs I need this fucking ski mask

[cinder abyss]

kappa?

[small cairn]

oof, I'm glad I was prepared

[unreal horizon]

I just stopped questing but now i'm picking it up again

want lvl 55 for black pants lol

[small cairn]

Only thing I can do is tracksuit, which seems..lame

[cinder abyss]

smart man

[small cairn]

ah yes, the 6,5 mil pants

[ivory ether]

just found a food bag and 556 mdr in marked

[unreal horizon]

wurth

[ivory ether]

second successful marked run lol

[cinder abyss]

im set for a while makes the game boring

[small cairn]

Same

[unreal horizon]

I traded my thicc for a taiga because why tf not

[small cairn]

I calculated that if I only play with the loadout I posted

[unreal horizon]

spice things up a bit

[small cairn]

I still have like 80-100 raids left in me

[cinder abyss]

my friend got a taiga from a cultist then died

[thorny phoenix]

whats taiga?

[cinder abyss]

melee

[thorny phoenix]

oh

[cinder abyss]

im gonna barter an m2 sword and run around with ks flash rounds

[reef wyvern]

holy shit theres a lot in this game i've never seen

[vivid ember]

Anything I can do to this relatively cheap build I made to make it better without spending too much?

[small cairn]

picture?

[vivid ember]

sorry im not smart

[small cairn]

[unreal horizon]

ideally a better muzzle brake

[vivid ember]

ok

[cinder abyss]

dont mind poor been spending money on hideout and labs

i might just start giving shit away im pretty bored

[small cairn]

thats what I did, dropped loadouts to friends on labs

never wasted so much money before in my life in that time span

I was quickly down 10 mil stash value from h-grids, meta sa-58s and ammo

[cinder abyss]

just have a lot of stuff i probably wont use so i might as well give it away

[normal plover]

why wont u use the HK?

[cinder abyss]

i will im just saying things like the rssas and mdr i probably wont use

ill just die with these in my bag lol

[reef wyvern]

bruh I'd shit myself tryna extract with that

[cinder abyss]

understandable

[small cairn]

I could use those mags

[cinder abyss]

sad thing is im only like level 40 ive done very few tasks this wipe

its my first wipe i didnt really know

[dawn geyser]

"only"

[small cairn]

[dawn geyser]

You're doing well my friend

[reef wyvern]

I'm level 5 first wipe teach me the ways lmao

[small cairn]

lvl 40 few tasks?

[cinder abyss]

thank you

yeah still on bad rep evidence lol

have to do those for my thicc weapons tho

[small cairn]

Idk my goals were in this order: Get max hideout; Get max trader lvls; Get kappa

I just ended up pushing myselfs after I finished first thing

[cinder abyss]

i just wanted my thicc case

[small cairn]

First wipe too

[dry belfry]

Nerd

[small cairn]

[vivid ember]

Are PMC spawns random or are they spaced out?

[small cairn]

Oh yeah, u owe me money

give me them kneecaps

[dry belfry]

Yeah I was just going to tell you that I still did lol

[normal plover]

first wipe?????

[cinder abyss]

set spawns on each map but it cycles through those spawns

[dry belfry]

Raid with me tonight and Ill give you the rest

[cinder abyss]

ye

[normal plover]

homie the master chad

[vivid ember]

No no I mean can two PMC's spawn on spawns that are right next to eachother on the map or are their spawns spaced out evenly?

[cinder abyss]

nah im decent but not really a chad

[normal plover]

ye they can spawn close

[vivid ember]

alr, ty

[cinder abyss]

i havent been playing tho because i just keep getting dead raids

[crisp nest]

supposedly scav spawns are

[vivid ember]

Alright, ty.

[crisp nest]

if pmc spawwns at X a scav cannot spawn at Y

according to my friend

[vivid ember]

Ok.

[crisp nest]

on certain places

[vivid ember]

I just spawned near a few spawns and I don't want to run into someone.

[dry belfry]

You likely will

Be prepared for that

[vivid ember]

Yeah, I am.

[cinder abyss]

why so expensive now?

[dry belfry]

Give it a few hours

[coral tiger]

no longer found in raid

[dry belfry]

Can craft though right?

[coral tiger]

yeah

[crisp nest]

just barter it if u want 1

[small cairn]

You can barter for it

[dry belfry]

Price will probably go back down to somewhat reasonable

[cinder abyss]

really cant find em in raid anymore?

[dry belfry]

Middle of the day prices get fucked sometimes

[cinder abyss]

was running vss on labs yesterday gun slaps hard

[vivid ember]

Would it be riskier to cross the customs landbridges earlier or later into the raid? I don't know the movement of players well so <

[crisp nest]

very early = danger

[vivid ember]

Ok.

[crisp nest]

just cross it

never been sniped there before

[vivid ember]

Ok.

[cinder abyss]

i cross manmade

[vivid ember]

shit

[cinder abyss]

then push dorms

im hoping scav case gives me a green so i can get another thicc case

[vivid ember]

yeah i need to learn player movement more

[small cairn]

You don't need space, if you waste all your gear

Thats what Im doing

[cinder abyss]

dorms and crack house are where people are usually gonna rush first there

[vivid ember]

no im talking more like the tactics and speed at which players move

[cinder abyss]

forget tactics m67 and shift w

[wary valley]

lmao dude

can guns jam?

[vivid ember]

started getting shot while i was typing about movement earlier, booked across the bridge, started walking a bit slower as i was in a place where scavs were and got sniped from behind. underestimated his speed

[cinder abyss]

yeah but its extremely rare

[cinder abyss]

learn the spawns

[wary valley]

well

[vivid ember]

nah it was like 10-15 mins into the raid

[wary valley]

this mfs gun just jammed and he lost all his scav loot

[cinder abyss]

what did he have on him

[crisp nest]

that the small 1 on dorms side?

[cinder abyss]

yes

[crisp nest]

yeah i cross there too

[cinder abyss]

its quickest tbh

[wary valley]

tk fast and some guns the purple thingy for face and i think a 50k earbud

[cinder abyss]

rip

what level do people usually get max stam

i got mine at 34

[small cairn]

There are to many factors for that honestly

[cinder abyss]

i just played a lot of reserve and got it quick

[small cairn]

also Im assuming u mean endurance

[cinder abyss]

yeah

[wary valley]

he had an ophtamoscope

[cinder abyss]

those arent super expensive

70k

trying to fill up with props lol

[small cairn]

if it is FIR you need it for a quest

[cinder abyss]

not even use them just keep them

[vivid ember]

If I leave a raid do I loose all my health and need to buy my life back from therapist?

[cinder abyss]

like disconnect?

yes

[normal plover]

only if u die

[vivid ember]

ok

[cinder abyss]

no if u disconnect u have to med

[thorny phoenix]

its always so weird to be alone at factory

[reef wyvern]

nice my game just crashed mid run

[cinder abyss]

havent been to factory since i was doing health care privacy 5

[crystal rain]

which is a best use for a budget?

[cinder abyss]

snb

[unreal horizon]

snb probably

[cinder abyss]

like 400 a shot

[crystal rain]

alright

[unreal horizon]

7n1 can 1 tap class 4s which can be good in certain situations, like killing scavs

[crystal rain]

o

[unreal horizon]

1 tap thorax that is

[crisp nest]

use snb tbh

[crisp nest]

its a low chance

it wont always 1 hit

[unreal horizon]

for shit like tarkov shooter it's good

[cinder lava]

who sells a op-sks

[unreal horizon]

jaeger

[cinder abyss]

u going for kappa?

[unreal horizon]

probably not

i'm happy with lvl 4 traders

[cinder abyss]

fair enough

too much of a grind

[unreal horizon]

sometimes I quest but for the most part just playing for fun

[cinder abyss]

yea tasks are boring as hell

[unreal horizon]

for sure

[vivid ember]

are there any rigs that are good for stash management

[cinder abyss]

lbt

[unreal horizon]

mppv is best for slots i think?

[cinder abyss]

that too

lbt has 2 2x2 slots tho

[small cairn]

Honestly, doing kappa makes game actual playable

Game feels boring without quests

[cinder abyss]

maybe next wipe im just working on getting school done

2 weeks left

[unreal horizon]

fair enough

[vivid ember]

whats the specific name of the lbt mppv if you have it if not its ok

[unreal horizon]

if youre bored with the game either stop doing quests, or start doing quests

[vivid ember]

k i foumd mppv

nvm

wow

thats neat

[cinder abyss]

just look up lbt its the tan one

[crystal rain]

whats the best 545x39

[vivid ember]

[small cairn]

I literally bored myself into losing gear fear and becoming a giga chad

Now I just need to get good

[cinder abyss]

id say bs

[crystal rain]

[lunar dune]

[unreal horizon]

[cinder abyss]

nothing good from scav case

[uncut hazel]

[unreal horizon]

and if i'm wrong and you do, they're super common

id sell to peacekeeper

[hearty mountain]

[hearty mountain]

[small cairn]

I can believe maybe 200-300k including mag

[vivid ember]

[hearty mountain]

80k for the mag alone

[hearty mountain]

idk bro i followed a guide okay

[unreal horizon]

u got scammed

[vivid ember]

you dont need a pistol grip

[pure mist]

even this doesn't cost 700K you got scammed so hard

[vivid ember]

the wiki has a parts list

and im pretty sure its the best one

[crisp nest]

you also bought the more expensive 60rnder

[pure mist]

the silver one is cheaper

[vivid ember]

ye

[hearty mountain]

i didnt even know there was multiple bro

[vivid ember]

use the wiki

[crisp nest]

u can see them on the flea

when u link search m4 and go to mags

[vivid ember]

[vivid ember]

thats a lot

[normal plover]

i get on factory as a scav and kill AI scav wanting a labs card or quest drugs bc yono quest and first scav is a labs card pog

[ivory ether]

was thinking it would be like 45 mil lmfoa

[vivid ember]

25 mil is

big

[crisp nest]

2 days of grinding money for me

[vivid ember]

what is your method

[crisp nest]

reserve

loot keys

extract

[vivid ember]

ok

i have rb-ao

[hearty mountain]

is shooting range worth unlocking

[vivid ember]

is that a good one

[ivory ether]

im too shiet at the game to consistently make money on reserb

[vivid ember]

can i get an ai scav to follow me as a player scav

[ivory ether]

also has anyone elses offline raids, scavs been just firing randomly

[unreal horizon]

I mean no it's not worth it, but its pretty cool to have

[ivory ether]

i think so with a hand command

[crisp nest]

it saves time

[unreal horizon]

yes

[vivid ember]

im trying to but this kid wont budge

[ivory ether]

yeah it freaks me out lmao and i have to rethink if i checked offline raid or not

[vivid ember]

oh hey he follows me sick

less goo

[ivory ether]

just found some m a y o on a scav

[hearty mountain]

didnt get a response and already built it

[crisp nest]

its useful

[ivory ether]

i need to do gunsmiths again, that reminds me

cause i need more levels for traders

havent leveled up in a while lol

just been teaching a friend of mine and running some basic questing and raids

[rough scarab]

[ivory ether]

what pistool is that, never seen it before or idk my eyesight is just bad

[crisp nest]

pm

[ivory ether]

[crisp nest]

aps

[unreal horizon]

apb

[crisp nest]

yeah

idk what the non-supressed aps was called

[ivory ether]

o ok

[pure mist]

what's the most expensive upgrade?

idk why i think it's a lot less than that

i was thinking about 15 mil

[cosmic tinsel]

apb suppressed aps unsuppressed

[somber portal]

B means 🅱️ uppressor

[cosmic tinsel]

bought some golden star. absolutely cannot get into it to save my life. PMCs are inhuman strong and its unrealistic

[unreal horizon]

elite strength should open it first try

[ivory ether]

i thought it was just part of the use animation when it takes an extra try to open it

[cosmic tinsel]

it is

its based on the fact that its irl very hard to open

[cinder abyss]

i have a bunch of 1 use golden stars ive been turning into propital

[ivory ether]

oh

lol

[cosmic tinsel]

and im here to tell you that the game makes it too easy, if anything

[cosmic tinsel]

good!

[ivory ether]

can raiders detect footsteps

[lunar dune]

any new guys need help

[crisp nest]

no

[ivory ether]

ok good

[cinder abyss]

raiders easy especially in map

[crisp nest]

raiders impossible to fight in the bunker at night

like in not above

[ivory ether]

i keep trying to fight raiders like scavs and i think thats my problem

[crisp nest]

u cant see if u have nv on but cant see without it

lmao

[latent wadi]

anybody wanna run customs? trying to kill scavs.

[cinder abyss]

not really they just bunch up together i usually have no issue

[small cairn]

[rough scarab]

man

died doing a quest and I had some decent loot

[ivory ether]

what happens if i have some non water resistant headphones in the rain

do they just not work then

[crisp nest]

no

irl maybe

[ivory ether]

haha yeah i was wondering cause sordins says water resistant

[cosmic tinsel]

all headphones in tarkov are water resistant and designed for military/sporting use

[ivory ether]

ah

i think they should add some non water resistant ones that are super cheap and ass

but idk it doesnt rain that often so prob not

[cosmic tinsel]

you already can barely hear in the rain with GSSH 😄

[ivory ether]

oh really, never really used the gssh much in the rain so didnt really notice lol

[unreal horizon]

oh did you start playing after the literal 2 week of only rain?

that was fucking awful

[cosmic tinsel]

it was rough.

[unreal horizon]

every raid. rain

[ivory ether]

hm, idk i got this game 113 days ago

[ivory ether]

shiet that would kinda suck for people who dont have a lot of money and use gssh then lol

[unreal horizon]

it was just gross

every raid all day, raining

[lunar dune]

any new players need help

[crisp nest]

i had a few days of woods with only rain

[cosmic tinsel]

mike did us the jinx 😦

[unreal horizon]

sadge

pls Nikita stop rain

[vivid ember]

its raining everywhere 😦

[unreal horizon]

im going labs until rain goes away

[rough scarab]

factory

i just looted this adar off a scav?

[strong barn]

its from a raider. if a raider or boss guard died other scavs may loot their gun lol

[rough scarab]

it was in dorms so assuming it was a reshala guard

[strong barn]

sounds about right

[rough scarab]

i got mad shit this raid

plus the adar

[strong barn]

hell ya s

[ivory ether]

[rough scarab]

i didnt even do anything I just ran to dorms cause it was nearby

[strong barn]

the joys of a scav run

never know what ur gunna find lmao

i blew up two guys with the gl in dorms then died to a guy before i could check em
lucky scav will have his way lmaoo

[jolly lily]

my tarkov ever time i restart my pc lowers it volume to 1% in sound control panel and idk how to fix or what causes it

[ivory ether]

bsg should add a mini game or pre game lobby during loading, would be a cool feature imo

[crisp nest]

tetris

of the stash

[ivory ether]

yes

something like that

[vivid ember]

yes

what's the difference between bp and ps when they have th4e same velocity

[jolly lily]

pen

[vivid ember]

oh i thought velocity was pen

[south oak]

why are there no phase control relays on the market

[crisp nest]

reopen flea

[cosmic tinsel]

bullet speed and ability to defeat armor are separate but frequently related in this game

[vivid ember]

alright

[weak epoch]

can anybody help me get some kills on dorms? literally getting one tapped from random ass places just trying to get there.

[cosmic tinsel]

are you US? I could do a couple raids. you know evil watchman is not required for kappa, right?

[high escarp]

[ivory ether]

[vivid ember]

[weak epoch]

[scenic mesa]

[vivid ember]

what quest

[scenic mesa]

a couple, the 15 scav kills on woods, and maybe the delivery from the past for prapor

[vivid ember]

ah the scav ones ok

What worked for me is going around the left edge of the map (referring to map genie)

hitting the scav bunker, scav houyse, and abandoned village got me like 4 scavs per round with no pmcs

[crisp nest]

preset

[crystal rain]

[pure mist]

[unreal horizon]

[unreal horizon]

and esmarch

basically all the tier 1 meds

ai2s

[crystal rain]

[crisp nest]

[crisp nest]

[crystal rain]

task getting a little diffuclt

[crisp nest]

gunsmith?

introduction?

[rough scarab]

just kill scavs

[jovial glen]

at lvl 1 therapist you should be using car med with bandage and tourniquet

[crisp nest]

or yk just play, 2 scav kills a few loot pieces and thats 2k exp

[crystal rain]

ah yes

I didnt know I had this quest unlocked

yet

Thanks

damn gunsmith is easy huh

[rough scarab]

kill 4 or 5 and loot stuff and thats like 5k when you extract

inspect everything on the flea market

[vivid ember]

^ perfect for your woods quest btw

route works great

[jovial glen]

its easy but expensive. early wipe its even more expensive

[ivory ether]

is there any mods with similar stats to zenit b33 dust cover

need it for gunsmith 10

[vivid ember]

this is the route i usually took to kill scavs, no pmcs and lots of scavs + loot. the red circle on the left of the screen is a cache location for more rubles @scenic mesa

worked beautifully for me

[crisp nest]

now add bridge car aka village and u get another like 3 scavs

and good loot

[vivid ember]

yeah i never went there unless i spawned there

[crisp nest]

and here has good loot ish

[hollow owl]

[tawdry storm]

Hey, I have just bought Tarkov and I'm very new. I've been over a settings guide from Pestily, who was the inspiration for buying the game, but I'm not sure what the experienced might recommend would be the best way to start out as a brand new player. Would anyone have any tips on a direction to move in? I'm aware I need to complete tasks first and foremost with Prapor and Therapist, but what would be the best way of going about these?

[deep gyro]

just youtube it my man and push through the nervousness

[dreamy turtle]

first get to lvl 10

[deep gyro]

yes

[dreamy turtle]

try to learn customs

you can run it in offline if you dont feel confident

[crisp nest]

i mean it's just a game 😄

[tawdry storm]

Would there be a particularly good way of going about getting level 10? I'm aware that the maps can be pretty overwhelming and that the gameplay is pretty brutal, would the learning curve be just to eventually learn how not to get smacked hahaha?

[crisp nest]

quests if you cant pvp but eh everything gives exp pretty much

just try to have fun

[dreamy turtle]

i get smacked every day

[jolly lily]

My scav is invisible to my friend is that a known bug

[dreamy turtle]

just try not to fight people

[crisp nest]

i was tryna grind level 10 when i was new but sucked and went broke and took like 50hrs for lvl 10

[crisp nest]

wdym

[jolly lily]

I'm standing in front of him and he can't see me but is see him

We're both streaming I'm invisible to him

[crisp nest]

never heard of that b4

tell him to alt f4 reopen game

if u have time left in the raid

[marsh holly]

Heyyo still fairly new was hopin to find someone to help me run through a few of my tasks so i can get to level 10

[junior hill]

I am having issues starting game, its says i have to reinstall the game... so instead I just uninstalled battle state launcher and tarkov from computer and reinstalled.

[normal plover]

lev 10 grind is tuff when u dont know shit took me like 5 days to get a hang of the game tbh

[rough scarab]

It took me a while to reach level 10

Then from 10 to 24 which is my current level I just like shot up cause I actually learned how to play

[junior hill]

getting error code 104005 on reinstall and the game will not launch, seeking help please!

[burnt sonnet]

Anyone tryna help me get to Lvl. 10? I'm absolute hot trash and cant get XP 😦

[sharp star]

when should i throw away an armour that ive repaired?

[crisp nest]

what armor is it?

a lotta people say 3/4 of original max durability

but really depends on what material and what armor imo

[sharp star]

kourend 0/39.6

[crisp nest]

yeah repair with prapor

maybe get 1 - 2 uses out of it

then sell

[dreamy turtle]

its ok im also hot trash

[burnt sonnet]

and of course all of the beginners vc's are full LUL

[dreamy turtle]

you can try the sherpahub

or lfg

i mean what are you trying to do

[burnt sonnet]

but i cant cuz im dogshit

[dreamy turtle]

what quests you got?

[burnt sonnet]

almost all of of

them

[native tartan]

anyone know whats the cheapest barter for a slick or a hex?

[dreamy turtle]

2 troopers and the fabrics for the slick

hex is the clothing barter if you can get them for cheap

[native tartan]

thanks

[noble summit]

hey do any of u guys have advice for the first customs quest

im level 1 struggling alot

[crisp nest]

isnt there only 1 barter?

for each

[native tartan]

i was wondering which was cheaper

[crisp nest]

oh slick

[native tartan]

you can buy the shotguns from jager

[crisp nest]

ragman 4 rather than 3 though

[noble summit]

ooh

[crisp nest]

hex is nice if u save the glasses and masks and ushankas when u kill scavs

[native tartan]

ya im going factory with ash-12 altyn asnd slick

so i was wondering whether it was cheaper to go slick or hex

[peak fern]

BOTH

[unreal horizon]

lol nice

gluhar gaming

[noble summit]

it says hes locked from trading

[native tartan]

last raid was my first time using it in a while and i wiped a 3 man but traded with the last one on factory and it was fun

[native tartan]

you have to do a quest to unlock him

you go woods and find a note

[noble summit]

should i do that first?

[crisp nest]

best craft for workbench 3?

[dreamy turtle]

i cycle my workbench between green -> red -> m61

[crisp nest]

dont have m67 from trader yet

[native tartan]

yes if you want to buy the shotguns off jager

or you could just hope you find them in-raid

[noble summit]

ok thanks

[dreamy turtle]

um, then uh

[noble summit]

do kills you get as a scav count towards quests or no

[dreamy turtle]

no

pmc only

[crisp nest]

^ yes

[noble summit]

ok im assuming u cant get the items that way either?

[crisp nest]

u can find items like shotguns, flash drives etc. as scav

[dreamy turtle]

the items you can get

[noble summit]

oh ok

[crisp nest]

but "quest items" like a gpu package for the farming quest is pmc only

[noble summit]

gotcha

[golden hinge]

[dreamy turtle]

i hate insomnia

[golden hinge]

[dreamy turtle]

[golden hinge]

i don't focus on making money off barters unless its saving money for equipment ima use

too much thinking

[dreamy turtle]

same

too much effort

[crisp nest]

what i do is

w-list everything

then buy them whenever i logon

[dreamy turtle]

well for the zabralo you gotta spam refresh on reset

[wary valley]
