#

its also becuase 5 bosses on 1 map means loads of loot

open hemlock
#

and free labs means inflation

charred crane
#

what is "hideout" on the main menu??

velvet blade
#

do bears sound just the same as scavs?

open hemlock
#

different voicelines, same language I think

#

why did bitcoin slow down

#

in hideout

#

you can use those gpus now to barter from mechanic

coarse ledge
#

I JUST BURNT MILLIONS OF RUBLES MAKING THE BITCOIN FARM A WEEK AGO NOW BTX FARMS ARE USELESS?!!

#

it takes like 10 days to make 1 btc

#

WTF DO I DO

meager inlet
#

is it normal to unload like 20 BP bullets into killa helmet and then he kill you?

hot tree
bitter crag
#

sure you hit them all?

meager inlet
#

uhh probably

#

lemme look at the clip

#

it is an offline raid so I ain't mad

coarse ledge
bitter crag
#

was it 7.62?

meager inlet
#

yeah it wasn't... i see now I was looking at the wrong type

coarse ledge
#

πŸ™‚

bitter crag
#

oh what was it then? xD

#

5.45?

meager inlet
#

yeah

coarse ledge
#

yeah, and his helmet has really high hp, so zeroing it out is also hard

bitter crag
#

in that case if you hit only the face shield it would take 6-7 shots before youd deal any damage to him

coarse ledge
#

mooooore

bitter crag
#

if you hit the helmet too then propably double that

#

no 454 i tested it

coarse ledge
#

bruh didnt you hit him 20 times?

#

then u died?

#

oh wait ur someone different sorry

bitter crag
#

This might be hard to answer briefly, but I bought the game over the weekend and have already maxed out my stash. I'm only level 4 and have only completed 1 quest. As a scav I ended up getting a few high valuable things like a bronze lion, a diary, a gas analyzer, some thermometer. Are these for quests? To make space I just sold them all. But now I also have a buncha random junk too. Also my backpack stack is maxed out and pretty much all rigs are full of ammo, mags, or health items. What should I be trying to sell versus what to keep? I even did a scav raid last night and wasn't able to keep everything since I ran out of space (also not sure if it's a bug but you can't put items back into your scav inventory after you transfer it to main stash)

strong barn
#

@pseudo dagger This is all items filtered to Found In Raid required for all quests

pseudo dagger
#

Oh damn that's a ton.

velvet blade
#

Skier doesn't want to take the flash drive from me, even though it's found in raid for the quest (orange checkmark)

#

what shall I do?

pure talon
strong barn
# pseudo dagger Oh damn that's a ton.

Dont stress about keeping every little thing. Youll probably find it again in the near future excluding colored key cards and the taiga melee weapon + Red Rebel

#

The list I sent is in order of use. Top stuff is first quests, bottom stuff is later quests. Use this to find the items you can afford to keep and afford to sell right now @pseudo dagger

Click back to main menu - return to skier, try again.

#

Yes sir. you can stack packs into packs so if you find two of those blue backpacks they can go inside each other with more backpacks inside it lol

tired terrace
#

yo what map do you guys recommend using to just get better at fighting and like awareness type of thing thanks!

tired terrace
# velvet blade Factory

what ive been running but i dont rlly learn much on factory because i either get one popped or kill one person or get lucky and kill killa and dip

velvet blade
#

if you're doing something wrong, then there's room for learning

strong barn
#

Your perception skill will increase as you play affecting your hearing distance. Besides that its practice knowing sounds of the map people walk on etc to guess where they are. @tired terrace

tired terrace
#

true

velvet blade
#

try recording a raid and watch it, analyze it

tired terrace
tired terrace
#

because they dont like the i can die in 30 seconds factor

strong barn
#

Practice like @velvet blade said. Keep playing, record your deaths nd analyze them.

#

factory your gunna die alot because its factory lmao

tired terrace
#

i should convince my friends to just run factory because they kinda just play woods so most of the time its not like grungy combat its more or less who sees who first

strong barn
#

I use factory as a gear dump tbh
I never play it unless quests or this event with killa

Interchange and customs are good maps to fight people but with this labs event nd reserve thing all the players are spread out across them more so then Interchange and Customs

tired terrace
#

i feel like that is the "get gud map"

#

like where i would help my self understand whats going on

#

instead of hoping i see sombody the same time they see me

strong barn
#

Imo interchange is the hardest map to memorize besides labs because theyres 1000 angles and 3-6 ways to get to any particular location lmao

safe rampart
#

how do i kill someone who has a flashlight aimed at me? i dont know where to shoot because the flare is so large, im speaking after dying to someone like this in interchange lol

strong barn

ya i feel it

safe rampart

im sure itll come to me.

#

i was using an akm with irons

tired terrace
#

i mean i just need to play more

strong barn
#

Its hard bro lmao @safe rampart thats a tough one. Sometimes is just luck lmao

#

my issue with reserve is extracting, or getting demolished by some mongrel with a crazy gun from like, a mile away

#

got my first reserve extract earlier today actually

thorn leaf
#

anyone feel like picking up a first wipe player. having a rough morning. need someone to watch my back for me .

tired terrace
#

the only one not like that you need red rebel and you still need to drop chest armor so is it even worth at that point

strong barn
#

if you wear an armored rig you dont have to drop anything for RR extract

small cairn
pure marsh
#

RR is worth every penny of the barter

tired terrace

#

Have you ever just observed the flea market?

dry belfry
#

Have you ever just sat and watched the flea market for 5 hours

small cairn
#

If so u wouldn't say that...

safe compass
#

I can't buy anything from traders for some reason. It's like they can't see my currency. I have like 600k and can't even buy ammo. Anyone know how to fix this?

pure marsh
#

Y'all don't have Tarkov market on your other monitor?

safe compass
pseudo dagger
#

Hold up. Is the economy that variable that you'd need to micromanage when you should sell stuff?

small cairn
small cairn
safe compass
#

i feel so freaking stupid lol!

#

ty

small cairn
#

understanding the market/the players that use it will lead you to more money

pseudo dagger
#

Oof. Ok

small cairn
pseudo dagger
#

And that applies to just the flea market or traders as well? I haven't gotten to level 10 yet

small cairn
tired terrace
#

yo kinda random is anyone down to duo trio on interchange help me with the map

pseudo dagger
#

OH that makes more sense

small cairn
#

but you can save/make quite a bit of money if you know alot about barters/crafts

#

so it is worth learning the traders aswell

#

if you aren't that much for market

pure marsh
#

Tarkov Guru <- google that

#

It has profit per hour, if barters are worth the price, and is constantly updated by pulling Tarkov Market data

velvet blade
#

@somber portal I restarted the game and it wasn't fixed 😦 😦

pseudo dagger
small cairn
#

I mean it has as many as you want to interact with

#

I made my way through the game mostly by clowning it, I googled my way to the quests and never really payed attention to money (mostly cuz I am a dirty sks rat)

dry belfry
#

I'm not good enough to be traditionally good at this game

#

So I'll find my own ways to fuck shit up

small cairn
#

Who said u have to be good?

dry belfry
#

My ego probably

small cairn
#

don't tell anyone

dry belfry
#

I haven't checked mine in a bit

small cairn
#

but these numbers don't mean shit for each other

dry belfry
#

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

dry belfry
#

I can see both sides

night citrus
#

its been a long wipe

#

especially since btc was 1m

dry belfry
#

The cool thing is

#

That I truly believe each wipe the game is getting better and better

night citrus
#

yeah

dry belfry
#

I fucking hate FIR, but I did enjoy this wipe a lot

night citrus
#

shorter wipe schedule coming as well

#

nice link

dry belfry

Click into Security

And hit upgrade

pure marsh

I think the flea follows the lore

I don't think taxes follow the lore

Sorry, seems like a bug

swift osprey

night citrus
#

you need flea and fir tho for tarkov

#

its the only way this game is somewhat balanced

#

it promotes not dying

hidden stashes are best rn

swift osprey

swift osprey

night citrus
#

yea just do stashes

#

btc not worth

swift osprey
#

oke

#

thanks

night citrus
#

its great to rush in beginning of wipes

#

cause its constant money

swift osprey
#

oh ok

#

what map for stashes?

#

like I usually play woods for safe loot =))))))

unreal horizon
#

I recommend IC for stashes so you can get out at 7 mins

#

Grab whatever's on the way to your exit

swift osprey
#

do u recommand any vids?

#

like the "stash run on ic" stuff

unreal horizon
#

Not really just look up a map

swift osprey
#

oh ok

unreal horizon
#

You're staying outside it's pretty much 0 risk

dry belfry
#

Video could be helpful too, I even had a tough time finding every single one

#

However you learn best

#

But yeah, it's easy and I'd say 75% of the time they go untouched

swift osprey
#

thanks for much

#

for helping

dry belfry
#

You can also google something like "Tarkov Money Run 2021" or similar and find other strategies

#

Everyone has their own way to play, that's the cool thing about Tarkov

#

No right or wrong way to play

I'm not new to this chat friend

I come in here to help newer players because I remember when there wasn't a discord and only the forum.
you'd ask for anything and you'd get told to just go pound sand

barren oasis
#

i hear wipe it like right around the corner

dry belfry
dry belfry
#

That should be your goal

obsidian pelican
#

allright

#

lmao this is my first wipe and i started like 2 months ago all ive been doing is finding which gun im comfterble with and learning the maps

dry belfry
#

That's a great start

obsidian pelican
#

but i would like to say im getting there

#

as a gun i really like to use m1a and i also used a bit of lategame wepons like m4 and vector

dry belfry
#

Yeah, M1A is really good

obsidian pelican
#

my friend has been playing the game for like 2 years and he just gave me guns that he thinks are good and i like most of em

#

like as val,vss and way more

dry belfry
#

It all comes down to preference

#

And really, the ammo is more important than the gun

obsidian pelican
#

yeah i know

#

like i "chadded" on reserve and went with an ak 103 with good ammo and i killed some tan man that was using pst gzh in a vector

dry belfry
#

You big chad you

obsidian pelican
#

yes big chad i would like to call my self

#

and a 25 % survival rate

#

lmao

dry belfry
#

That isn't bad at all for a new player

obsidian pelican
#

really?

dry belfry
#

Yeah, that's good

dawn geyser
#

When did you join the wipe?

dry belfry
#

I think 40% SR is considered high

#

march or so

dawn geyser
vestal knoll
#

dry belfry
#

Yes

#

With no warning

night citrus
#

#

dawn geyser
#

Ammo?

#

Hmm?

obsidian pelican
#

thats why

dawn geyser
#

Oh

#

Yeah scavs don't carry good ammunition

obsidian pelican
#

imma send him an ammo chart

vestal knoll
#

is there difference in ammo, i had no idea

dawn geyser
#

If you get a scavs weapon, hit Alt + T to check contents of magazine

#

Yes big difference

#

Ammo matters more than weapon

vestal knoll
#

sooo thats why i die all the time

night citrus
#

i live by the rule "a good gun is bad with bad ammo, but a bad gun is great with good ammo"

#

ammo means more than the gun in this game

nocturne swift

Came to my mind but didn't think it would make such difference.

Hey yall. I used to just "play the game" for the 130 days I had my account, being scav raid for guns, pmc raid when scavs on cool down, rinse, repeat, done. never got flee market, kept materials or made good in game financial decisions, leveled or accessed new dealers or quests, etc. I have the limited edition ($140) purchase of the game and I really want to make the most of it. I want to learn how to level the hideout an dealers to be more capable, know where to get the mats like bolts and duct tape, etc. Combat and raid tips, how to learn map and mechanics, the ins and outs, know what to look for on bullet types and weapon stats, how to level char skills, etc. I know it will take time to learn, but is anyone interested in helping me? Not a hand holding session, but actually teaching. I will take notes and everything. Let me know if you want to help, thank you.

have the map your trying to learn pulled up on your phone or second monitor

ive been doing offline raids and using my scav is there a easiest map to learn?

woeful trail

and just run it on offline till you know layout and extracts then your just left learning player habits

customs is the easiest but thats my personal opinion

to learn that is

Customs is a traditional FPS map, it likely is the easiest

interchange is one of the 2 maps i dont really know lol

factory is probably the easiest to learn but also shit loot and chads

As a pmc ive mainly been running in with solely a pistol and killing scavs and taking their loot. Ive amassed a fair amount of rubles. What cheap loadouts should i start using instead?

Labs is the easiest to extract

Most are easily identifiable with things like exit signs lit up or search lights. if the extract is green when you double tap O, it is accessible. Opposite is true if it is red. Some are timed, hence the color coding. Some will be accessible 24/7. They are usually in map corners or visually identifiable areas. With a 3rd party map, try to find one with labels on extracts. I recommend using either https://www.gamemaps.co.uk/game/tarkov/ or https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/customs

not a beginner, just wondering why all of a sudden my btc farm stopped working properly, got fuel in my genny but still its a 130 hour queue

bold kernel
#

@minor rain Also, don't be afraid to do pacifistic or rush through raids on scav if you have a prioritized extract. Getting familiarized and getting gear for pmc is good enough of a goal. If you really want to learn and survive, setting goals is a highly recommended thing to do.

1 more question actually, whats the best difficulty for me to run in offline mode? should i just keep it as online or should i do hard

keep it as online id say

not really an upside but gets you better value than selling them

unless youre going in very heavily geared and you want more of a challenge

ya run as online you get used to the wacky ai system

Scav AI is pretty good at teaching you not to peak the same angles twice. The scavs first shots are a courtesy, after that they switch the aim bot on.

if you got lucky scav, id suggest keeping diaries for prapor kround (idk how tf you spell it) armor

#

First wipe getting to use that barter and I kept like 8, 2 sets of not complete trash armor that you usually get back from insurance

#

by that I mean I was able to use the 2 sets over 4ish raids? depends where you die etc.

dark arrow
#

ok i did not know you dont get insurance back from labs

#

that is interesting

open hemlock
#

high stakes

digital sable
#

Isn’t the reason insurance doesn’t work on labs is because the insurance dudes don’t have a keycard? With labs being free, shouldn’t they be able to head in and get your stuff now?

unreal horizon
#

I agree with that ^

#

could also be because they literally can't find the lab, but we can so that doesnt make much sense

digital sable
#

Or they’re just scared to go there because of raiders and such

#

Though Prapor’s dudes must be kind of badass since they escape from Tarkov with 100% survival rate

red folio
#

who says they do?

#

probably why they dont find your stuff sometimes

digital sable
#

If you pay insurance and the stuff isn’t looted, stuff comes back 100%?

red folio
#

no

digital sable
#

Is it not 100%? I always figured if it didn’t come back, someone else extracted with it

red folio
#

not looted= didn't extract with your stuff

#

and yes. it's not 100%

digital sable
#

Oooh interesting

red folio
#

if you play more consistently, insure with prap. few times a week? insure with the rapist

digital sable
#

So ditching insured loot for more space isn’t always worth it?

red folio
#

depends

#

you should test it by insureing an extra mag and dropping it every raid

#

see what happens

#

but dropping a piece of gear to switch it for someone elses is considered "insurance fraud"

#

works most of the time because no one usually loots it. but it's not guaranteed

digital sable
#

When you say it fails sometimes, are you referring to someone extracting with the gear? Or are you saying sometimes the raid ends, no one looted the stuff, but it still fails to return?

red folio
#

the latter

#

or is it ladder?

#

fuck it lol

digital sable
#

I was looking on the wiki to try and find mention of that, but couldn’t find any

#

Interested to know what the failure rate is

#

Also, it’s β€œlatter”

shift is for good RC, and great ergo

yes

warped kraken

ima take recoil i guess

I’d figure it’s been datamined or something. I guess I can start bringing a cheap insured mag then dropping it to try and estimate it myself if not… but that also doesn’t sound like fun.

Question. When someone's blacked limb is shot, does the extra damage spread out equally between all limbs (so if 5 limbs remain, each take 20% of the bullet's extra damage) or is it spread out in proportion to how much health that part represents (so head takes 35/(440-black limb's HP))?

#

I have a feeling it's the latter because otherwise the toz can 2 shot kill someone by legging them

pure marsh

The damage after it's blacked is equally spread to each surviving part

By that multiplier above

Ah.. so a TOZ with devastator shells deals 198 damage, after it blacks out a leg consuming 65 damage the bullet still has 133 damage left, spread out equally between 5 limbs the head takes about 26 damage. So another shot will deal at least another 26 damage to the head killing the person.
Conclusion, TOZ can 2shot someone from their legs
