beginners-assistance

[copper depot]

am i using the usd right LOL

[vivid ivy]

I just came to this channel and thought you were talking about irl money

[haughty tulip]

If he doesn't have to worry for not having gear or money then he can enjoy a bit more the game

And with this damn fog you aint learning any map

You can barely see

And God forbids thermal chad decided you are gonna be wiped off the map

[unreal furnace]

yeah i really dont wanna play in the fog

[haughty tulip]

You should wait

It's going to suck for you

But on the good side

You are close to getting a wipe

[unreal furnace]

true

whens the fog going?

[haughty tulip]

There's no better time for a new player

4 more days

[unreal furnace]

damnn

[haughty tulip]

Yep

Either go in with a sherpa so you can get money and stuff for the end of the fog

Or wait until the fog is gone

Nevertheless you need someone to take you around because it's gonna be hard for now

[unreal furnace]

is factory sweaty?

[haughty tulip]

It's for pvp

I guarantee you death

[unreal furnace]

aha

gotcha

[haughty tulip]

Not because of pmcs but because of killa

Usually you can survive it

If you know how to play it

But with killa there it takes a second for him to drop shot you in the face

[unreal furnace]

mhm alright

[haughty tulip]

See, if you get chased by killa you are most likely dead

Only thing that could save you is good ammo and a door in between you and him

[crisp nest]

i mean calling people sweaty in tarkov is dumb

[haughty tulip]

Yeah

[crisp nest]

its perma death tryhard all you want

[haughty tulip]

He's right

[unreal furnace]

yeah true

[crisp nest]

i hate rats but i mean they're playing "tactically"

[haughty tulip]

Tactical camp

With a shotgun

And they'll aim for your legs

They will sit in the same spot for 20 minutes watching youtube until you arrive

[unreal horizon]

its a survival game no one gives a shit how you play just survive

[unreal furnace]

hm

[haughty tulip]

there's going to be people mad at camping

But you need not to worry

Every play style is good

[unreal horizon]

^

[haughty tulip]

This game makes you not want to die

If you don't have pvp skills

Rat skills are reliable

Be a proud rat

[unreal furnace]

mhm

yea all this is gonna prob take me awhile to get used to

[unreal horizon]

shift w relies on desync or boomer reaction time lol

[molten pecan]

hey i just extracted with a scav where is my 100k

[unreal horizon]

there's a short delay, go for another raid it'll be there by the time you're out

[molten pecan]

thanks mate

[unreal horizon]

yeah it happens for everyone, i wouldnt worry

[molten pecan]

so i dont need to take a quest or someshit ye ?

[unreal horizon]

it'll show up in your mail in a bit

[molten pecan]

okay thanks mate

[lilac gale]

its like 5 minutes

[floral swift]

how do i check how much amo i hav

[molten pecan]

is it this msg ( well done. I hoppe you didnt mess up too bad. Otherwise, how would you have gotten out of there>?> Youre a ninja, arent you?)

[unreal horizon]

alt+t gives an approx. amount

[crisp nest]

everyone who plays this game is boomer

[unreal horizon]

use gamer brain and prefire when the footsteps line up with the corner

[uncut siren]

why tf is everything so expensive

[molten pecan]

yep only kids play cod, youre correct

[molten pecan]

its every pre wipe like this

people spending all there money

[crisp nest]

i came from csgo so i got that jittery aim and prefires

[molten pecan]

i wouldnt say csgo helps u in any way by this game, complete diff aiming xD

[haughty tulip]

never have I seen

A scav not shooting another scav

Until they added the 100k

[molten pecan]

i just diud last round

[haughty tulip]

Here I am chilling with another scav

[molten pecan]

we were 8 scavs on scavlands

[haughty tulip]

there's 4 at the moment

[molten pecan]

btw where is the ETS button in th elauncher ?

[haughty tulip]

i think this event teaches scavs to be friendly lol

[hearty portal]

anyone got some tips that well help me alot?

[wind granite]

why does anyone use the ASVAL when the VSS is cheaper and appears to have better stats?

[bold kernel]

because pog gun

[unreal horizon]

at their best the val has 1 less recoil, only reason to use val is because it takes the AR skill rather than DMR skill

for the price just run vss

[unreal imp]

money is free

[marble trellis]

how do i convert my dollars i got from fence to roubles

[unreal horizon]

most people use mp5

[marble trellis]

who do i buy the mp5 from and who do i sell it to

[unreal horizon]

PK to mechanic

[ivory ether]

wtf, i just joined on on a totally dead factory instance

[marble trellis]

thanks!

[ivory ether]

its literally just scavs lol

[mellow solstice]

probably a 5 man who already extracted

[ivory ether]

it was day factory

[mellow solstice]

day time has a max of 5 players and you can fill that in 1 group

[ivory ether]

and i looked everywhere as a pmc, didnt find anything but ai scavs, not complaining tho, i got my syringe for chem 3

[haughty tulip]

damn

who need to buy a thermal

when you cna just go loot it from a dead pmc

lamao

[keen falcon]

Hi all! New to EFT. Is this the right place to ask for someone to show me around in game?

😄

[haughty tulip]

just scav in and get one for free

[haughty tulip]

it is

[cinder hound]

?wipe

[haughty tulip]

I just got one

[haughty tulip]

next thursday

reserve

Remember bosses are a thing

And sanitar is cracked

Well he clapped a lvl 57

Bro

Trust me

Run the other way

90% of the times you are dead

I reckon he won't die with 3 ags hits

game is farting

weapons won;t load

Yes

There's a vid of lvandmark shooting the bastard around 30 bullets of m61 and he did not die

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyL17MwPL3I

Igolnik sucks pve

Never use anything with low flesh dmg

Bs

You'd do better with BS

lmao

ags lord

I see you mike

ah I see

Then I guess that's alright

Still sucks tho

[unreal horizon]

yeah it has low flesh but you never account for a boss to shrug off a nuclear bomb

[haughty tulip]

I didn't when I scaved in and his guard took 3 bullets of BP to the head

[unreal horizon]

air space control baby

[copper depot]

fk i rlly hate this pistol quest so bad

[haughty tulip]

Don't do it

Why are you doing it right now

The fog ain't gonna help you

Wait

I hope you know that's a joke

[unreal horizon]

[haughty tulip]

And don't whip anything this thursday

pls

[plucky minnow]

every map has fog now ?

[haughty tulip]

except factory and lavbs

oh i did not see reply

Thermal gang

If you manage to get one off flea

[plucky minnow]

i would like to xD But i goes around 7mil now

kinda new

ohhh

[unreal horizon]

??wipe

[red current]

Nothing has been officially confirmed about the upcoming patch date or any future wipes. New info will be posted to #eft-announcements

[velvet blade]

any tips on fighting targets with a flashlight device in a night raid while wearing night goggles?

[haughty tulip]

do the 100k usd event

have to restart

game is farting and not loading

[velvet blade]

anyone knows the end date of fence event?

[plucky minnow]

i feel like this game isn't for me always dying to some chad

does everybody start like that

?

[haughty tulip]

do it till your hands bleed

[plucky minnow]

how do you guys improve

[hollow pagoda]

Repetition n time I would assume

[hardy marsh]

its on till wipe

[haughty tulip]

dying plenty of times

[plucky minnow]

Yea i guess its true

[bold kernel]

can you combine pvs-14's?

[plucky minnow]

Hope i’ll get better

[velvet blade]

I want you to watch that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_8CVkLxMsM

Then watch that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HtlfS0aTVU

It's the same person I swear

[plucky minnow]

Okey i take the advice thx

[haughty tulip]

Also if you find a sherpa

That'd be good

That's gonna boost you a lot

[velvet blade]

before you find a sherpa, do something that is galaxy brain:

record your gameplay for like 5 or 8 raids, then show it to the sherpa

boom, you're a chad in 1 class.

[plucky minnow]

What is Sherpa ?

Ohh good to know

[velvet blade]

#sherpa-info

[south cloak]

if u disconnect as a scav you cant reconnect?

[velvet blade]

you should normally

[south cloak]

well thats wierd

idk y I disconnected as well

[velvet blade]

did you disconnect before loading loot or after?

[unreal horizon]

if you disconnect you die, if you alt f4 you run on the spot and can reconnect

[velvet blade]

there's a difference between losing connection and confirming leave

[ivory ether]

does nv help visibility in the fog?

during daytime

[haughty tulip]

ok

so much stuff that I can't take anything else

Time to go waste time

[copper depot]

is there a way to check how many of something u have in ur stash?

like how many of a mag for example?

[haughty tulip]

Not that I know of

[velvet blade]

What does "Connect to global chat" do?

[haughty tulip]

You might as well join general chat

[hardy marsh]

it puts you into the matrix

[velvet blade]

?!?!

[hardy marsh]

someone want meta mpx?

[formal bay]

Drop it into ocean on Shoreline. Davy Jones can have it in his locker.

[copper depot]

what's a good mid tier helmet?

[dark arrow]

imo i will throw a ulach on because right now people are running ammo that is just gonna one tap any helmet

i dont personally worry about the helmet

[unreal horizon]

helmets are useless

use wendy/fast with visor if you want to spend dollars

[floral swift]

how to know how much amo there is in ur mag

[jovial tangle]

right click then check mag

or alt t if you in raid

@floral swift ^^^

[velvet blade]

was russia 2028 renamed to tarkov? or it's a different product

[jolly lily]

whats the cold blooded stim called

[ebon summit]

xtg

its a white stim

[jolly lily]

xtg is for cultist

poison

its sj9 i figured it out

[worthy stream]

(Never played Russia 2028 or knew about it because I was too young at the time but: ) I'm pretty sure that while Russia 2028 was an entirely different game, EFT was heavily based on it.

[ebon summit]

wiat what did they change it? ok im just dumb i think

[velvet blade]

hmmm trainfender I'm pretty sure I saw that name here before

[ebon summit]

yeh it was the first game they made and from what i could find before they made tarki to fund it

[velvet blade]

[celest sage]

[alpine anvil]

feels like such a bad time for new players to buy the game, ive killed so many low levels on factory with high tier kits…

how tf do they buy a korund, altyn and a mp9 with rip at lvl 4

[ebon summit]

they kill someone for it

[static canopy]

What do question marks mean near extraction locations?

[ebon summit]

it might be open it might not

if its red it was a 1 time use thats been used

[ebon summit]

did he fail the caption like 3 times?

[bold kernel]

i don't know tbh

[ebon summit]

thta would be the most likely reason

[bold kernel]

is it like a temporary ban?

[ebon summit]

give it like 20 miniutes and he should be good

yeh it is temp

[bold kernel]

ah alright thank you so much

my friend got scared for a sec lol

[ebon summit]

[primal marlin]

[lusty junco]

can anyone help me get the $100k

[ebon summit]

you done health care privacy 1 to 4 right?

@primal marlin checkout the link above make sure this is disabled on your pc

[ebon summit]

go in as a pmc and just lie in the grass next ot extract until you hear a scav will be faster than trying to get someone to scav into your game

[primal marlin]

@ebon summit its still there, its fine ill just take the performance hit and not play fullscreen

[violet coral]

wipe?

jk

[ebon summit]

@primal marlin after doing some more checking online its to do with windows and not tarkie one of your settings must be messed up

[left shale]

Hey there, lookin to get started, i've played some games and i'm not the best but I was hoping to squad up with someone who might be able to teach me a thing or two. Is this the right chat for that?

[ebon summit]

@left shale Checkout #pvp-lfg if you are trying to group up with some players you will find people in no time

[left shale]

Thank you!!

[supple herald]

You, my mans, do you get the 100k USD if you extract as a scav?

[crisp nest]

yes

[ebon summit]

Yep

[supple herald]

When? and how?

I just extracted there

[ebon summit]

extract using a pmc and scav extract then about 10 minutes after you will get the money from fence

you can do it on woods interchange and reserve

[crisp nest]

5-10m later

[supple herald]

Awesome!

Cause Ima get some fat cash in about 10 minutes!

[ebon summit]

can do it unlimited times also

[supple herald]

:D

[violet coral]

how do I install this thermal onto a weapon

[keen falcon]

Hi! Anyone willing to show a noob some basics :D?

[ebon summit]

checkout #pvp-lfg if you wanna play with someone but if you got any questions ask away in this chat and someone will respond soon ):)

[keen falcon]

Awesome! Thank you so much!!

I would thumbs up but Idk how on this server 😦

[violet coral]

Does anyone know the mount I need for the thermal scope? I can't find it.

[somber rain]

welp, im fucking done with this game

i was wearing korund armor and an altyn

and i got one tapped by a fucking scav

[safe wind]

tarkov'd at its finest

[somber rain]

but ive actually been improving a lot

ive killed about 4 pmcs today

[pure mist]

Lol after a while you get used to crap happen in Tarkov

[lethal relic]

I just got Tarkov and I don't know where to begin lol

[dire rock]

well the game is most likely wiping next week so id wait for that before really getting into it

[crisp nest]

link search

[lethal relic]

okay, I just want to know how to play the game before that happens

[crisp nest]

then he will get destroyed earlywipe because he has no clue what hes doing

[tired otter]

anyone want to make a few runs?

[dire rock]

yeah go ahead and get a grip on the game just letting you know to make sure you arent suprised when you lose what little progress you had

[crisp nest]

ah ok i get you now

[dire rock]

main early goals are learning maps, getting quests done then learning to survive raids, in that order

@lethal relic

once you have those down then you can learn the wonders of the million and a half ammo types and pvp

[pure mist]

Always nice to learn maps first @lethal relic

[lethal relic]

which one would be the best to start on?

[pure mist]

Customs

[lethal relic]

okay

[dire rock]

customs, it has a lot of early quests and good landmarks

[pure mist]

There are a lot of early tasks on customs

next i would recommend woods and/or interchange

[lethal relic]

should I go in with my stuff on me or what should I go in with at the start?

[pure mist]

Do offline first

[lethal relic]

okay

[dire rock]

like i said your stash gets reset next week so dont worry about losing stuff right now

once it wipes, just run a lot of scavs and only bring the essentials on your PMC raids

focus on avoiding other players and just gathering loot and getting your early quests done

[lethal relic]

alright

[ivory ether]

anyone know why hole in the fence by the mountains isnt working for me

im a scav

[unborn crater]

any tips for costumes

still new

[ivory ether]

nvm im dumb i was at cp fence

[dire rock]

you mean customs?

[unborn crater]

ye

[unreal horizon]

avoid crackhouse, dorms, and fortress if you're not looking to fight

[unborn crater]

can you put a scope on a mosin bolt

like a 8x ?

[unreal horizon]

yeah

[unborn crater]

so how ?

[unreal horizon]

well it needs to be the mosin sniper variant, not the carbine variant

[pure mist]

Link search and get the mount

[unreal horizon]

there's a combo of mounts from prapor to mount a 3.5x mosin scope, and a mount to mount any scope

[pure mist]

I believe it’s kochetove or something with patriot mount

[unreal horizon]

^^ that

[unborn crater]

its a infantry rifle

one

[pure mist]

You can’t put scope on an infantry one

[unborn crater]

dang

[crisp nest]

i dont think theres an 8x in the game is there

[unborn crater]

idk i was just saying

[pure mist]

There is

There is a night force one, it is 8x-16

[unreal horizon]

can do this from lvl 1 prapor

[pure mist]

This was my many load outs before i learned the game better

it’s Cheap and good

[keen brook]

I just bought the game and it says they will send me a invitation to the beta. It has been a few hours and im just wondering if it takes a few days or if I missed something in the sign up.

[crisp nest]

[keen brook]

damn, I was hoping that I could play today. thx

[keen brook]

[proven parrot]

Yeah I also got it for similar reasons, 600 hours in, I still suck ass

[scenic crown]

l

[unreal horizon]

it's punishing and hard, but that makes the wins feel so much better than any other game

[solid flame]

where do u see ur hours

[pure mist]

After a while it doesn’t feel quite as good

[unreal horizon]

can always spice it up with meme runs

[proven parrot]

where you see your stats ingame

[proven parrot]

thanks, i am not in the game rn, forgot what it was called

[unreal horizon]

i always think it's overview

[signal dove]

i just unlocked the flea market for the first time and i want to sell this redut-t5 armor that i found

but the pricings are like 3.8 million to like 5 million roubles

should i sell it at the same price? or lower price?

i was curious and even selling it at 2 million roubles costs me around 600 thousand in fee

[frail quarry]

Slick or Hex?

Can only fix 1

[hollow minnow]

@golden moss hop in

[golden moss]

[golden moss]

[valid musk]

Anyone else not able to play any map except factory and lab?

[bold kernel]

[crisp nest]

labs only for the forseeable future for me

[celest sage]

I was bored so I got 100m

[mighty jacinth]

ik but how to tranfer usd to rubles

[crisp nest]

useless to do anyways

[crisp nest]

the best way tho, is mp5

[meager inlet]

Okay, different question, what item can I sell to jaeger that I can buy from peacekeeper for lvl 2 jaeger? @crisp nest

[crisp nest]

maybe other snipers too but idk

[rare vault]

what does the tagged and cursed feature do in offline mode?

[unreal horizon]

scavs push you when you're in a radius around them

[safe rampart]

if you get something in a raid, then put it in your container, will it come back with you on death?

[gray knoll]

Yes!

[unreal horizon]

yeah everything in your container, compass slot, and melee slot is safe

[safe rampart]

yeah i saw this clip where a guy got a "docs" container with redcard in it

put it in his alpha and got killed at extraction

n i didnt know if he lost it or not

[gray knoll]

he def kept it but he would not be able to sell it on flea

[safe rampart]

[harsh cobalt]

i very new (literally got the game yesterday) and have no idea what im doing lol anyone able to help

[sand herald]

Get out of this game until it resets

[harsh cobalt]

fair enough

[lethal magnet]

nah, go ahead and learn what you can

though it will be better when it wipes

[sand herald]

I was kidding

[lethal magnet]

lol ok

[sand herald]

Do what major said

It's better for you to see what you can learn

So when it wipes you'll have an extra knowledge

[harsh cobalt]

oh lmao

when is wipe?

[sand herald]

No confirmed date

We hope it's within this month

[harsh cobalt]

ive done a few raids so far usually i like kill one guy then get shot from across the map

[sand herald]

Start with either factory or customs

They're the easiest maps to learn

[harsh cobalt]

ok thanks

[lethal magnet]

how much of a difference is playing with EU player when you are US player?

and playing on EU servers

[sand herald]

Eh, mostly ping wise

Lot of desync probably

[lethal magnet]

ping is usually 70-100 more

[sand herald]

Ye you gon peek and get back in cover and die

[lethal magnet]

compared to the avg 50-70 ping i get from US servers

oh fuck that

Need a US player to run duo or trip on customs with

im lvl 4 noob, played back in 2017

i know customs well enough, and decent with a few other maps, but mostly been doing skav runs

guess im gonna just solo it, did a trial run offline and made it out barely but had some good loot, made me wish it would of been online. only way to get better is play, idk why i be getting scared to just go out and do it llol

LFG customs 13 if anyone wants to join me

[harsh cobalt]

@lethal magnet one sec

[subtle cipher]

If you can wait like 3 minutes just gonna smoke a cig?

[unreal furnace]

is it better to move around more and be a bit more aggressive than be camping and silent walking when starting out?

[fallen cargo]

depends what your goal is

[violet coral]

GUYS NO FOG

wipe incoming

[fallen cargo]

when starting go in cheap and walk a round and go from cover to cover and learn the map( map scave spawns loot ...)

[clever steeple]

[royal belfry]

do raiders spawn on reserve when you turn on the lights for d2?

or only when you pull the hermatic door alarm

and the other raiders spawn by default

[granite tartan]

double tab y and then right click the line you want and press the hotkey you want it on, should stick it to said hotkey

[bleak heath]

looking for others to play with?

[bold kernel]

are raiders on all maps?

[royal belfry]

just reserve and labs iirc

[gentle drum]

well... prapor just text me that raiders starting to going around

so idk if that gonna true or nah

[warped birch]

what should I do with FIR GPU'S now?

[granite tartan]

sell em

[warped birch]

bc BTC is not worth it anymore right?

[radiant niche]

who wants to try and do some dorm marked key runs, i have an extra and can split the loot with other beginners

[royal belfry]

when people say intel spawns they mean things like diaries and flash drives?

[twin ravine]

i just got the game...

[radiant niche]

i believe so

[twin ravine]

what do i do...

[radiant niche]

i can help you out ^^ join the vc i'm in

[twin ravine]

can i join with a friend?

[radiant niche]

go ahead

[royal belfry]

i guess theyre quite valuable since the in game "exchange rate" would be 1 dollar = 150 ruble while all those intel stuff are like 240-310 dollars

[twin ravine]

k hold on

[radiant niche]

👍

[reef prairie]

Intel spawn == folder with intelligence

[royal belfry]

o

whats the main use for it? the lab keycard barter?

or scav case

[reef prairie]

Yes, and hideout upgrades

Mostly scav case later in the wipe

[royal belfry]

thats a lotta stuff for the purple keycard

[blissful remnant]

Hello guys. I'm trying to register for the game to buy it... but it will not accept my email address because I use protonmail and that's a domain that isn't accepted... for whatever reason.

Can this be resolved?

[solar temple]

It sure can. You can almost gaurantee that the entity running the EFT website is not in this discord. You would have to message them by mail at the referenced email link on the eft website.

Secondly, you can gaurantee they wont grant access to 1 type of email type. It would be more productive to create an account with an email company that is accepted.

Because that would take 3 minutes compared to weeks of waiting for a response.

[dim ingot]

i have a protonmail address for my etf account; so unless they placed that restriction on newer accounts then there might be some other issue?

[blissful remnant]

Well, i can't think of what it is. I've used my old gmail account instead for now and bought the game. Do you know how long it takes for the purchase to get processed?

[solar temple]

immediately. Download access is granted upon purchase directly from the website. I was notified by email that i can download however the website itself unlocks the ability to download from eft.com

[blissful remnant]

Ah right. i think it is a little longer than immediately. For about 10 minutes there was nothing in my profile other than a record of the transaction saying that the payment was being processed. Now i have a great big install button 😄 Thanks for your time though guys!

[solar temple]

Ya thats the button your looking for. Goodluck!

The same will work if you upgrade to Edge. However if your running EFT, a restart would be needed to apply it to the account.

Below the install button, depending on the version you purchased, should be a free pack of stuff, if you click on it, it will be sent to your character.

(this has to be done after every wipe to get that free pack of stuff)

[lethal flame]

raiders on interchange???

[bold kernel]

anyone able to help me with finding jaeger quest & perhaps some pre-modded weapons for first few mechanic quests? trying to get to level 10 from level 7 so i can enjoy the end of wipe a little bit, i can pay for everything! dm me!

Every map

[vast zinc]

can anyone help me with some shoreline quests I really want a thicc case before wipe

[ornate steppe]

which trader can i get mp7 mags from?

[hot tree]

i think peacekeeper

or mechanic

[copper depot]

if using 7mm buckshot, should i aim legs if they have face shield?

[solar temple]

no

[copper depot]

just keep spamming head?

[lethal flame]

ngl buy flechette or just aim for the leggs

if he has a faceshield

but a small pellete of you buckshot can kill him

[copper depot]

the pellets have a chance to oneshot their face right

[bold kernel]

i have a problem

[plush quest]

if they have a facesheild its like less than 1%

[twin narwhal]

if anyone needs help hit me up

[hot tree]

damn nice loot

[desert abyss]

[terse anchor]

What’s the first thing I should do while just starting

[hardy marsh]

Focus on quests

[terse anchor]

So with this “wipe” coming I’ve only played 3 games, will quests help me after this wipe or should I focus on learning how to pla

[hardy marsh]

Honestly since it’s so close to wipe I would just focus on learning the game but when it wipes do the quests

[terse anchor]

Okay

Now is the wipe confirmed?

Or is it basically confirmed but not confirmed hahah

[opaque violet]

I would assume its close because they messed up the economy with all these events

[terse anchor]

Oki do I keep everything I started with from buying the game? Like will that reset

[carmine gust]

It will be just like the first time you logged in

[eternal wolf]

Hello everyone, i've been strugling a lot to find where to extract or simply just where to go, how am i supposed to navigate?

[terse anchor]

Oki :D

[carmine gust]

map genie maps are my fav. Just google MapGenie and the name of the map you want then play around with the filters

[eternal wolf]

But when im actually in game there is no compass or someway i could pinpoint my objective?

[mystic smelt]

you can get a compass from a quest but its not really useful id suggest learning maps in offline mode and just knowing them off from heart to know where extracts and loot spawns are

[crisp nest]

late, but thats the christmas pack

they will not receive it

its for accounts bought before this wipe

[opaque violet]

Everything resets skills, stash, level, quests etc you even choose character again

[tight ember]

I want to try some high tier gameplay since wipe is coming but I don't really know any good stimulants that high tier players use. any tips on those stimulants

[opaque violet]

blue sj stim

[crisp nest]

you missing meds

[terse anchor]

Is there a best weapon in the game?? Or is it all pretty balanced abs goes by what you like?

[crisp nest]

and yes pls repair armor and refill mags too, but otherwise, they are:

mule etg propital sj6

[hardy marsh]

Odolbos

[crisp nest]

maaaaybe meldonin

[tight ember]

whops those are the meds I think I should try

[crisp nest]

yes thats good, another stim u might want is the ETG-C

[tight ember]

alright

[crisp nest]

it regens you really fast if you're at like 1 hp after a gunfight

[hardy marsh]

Odolbos buy good

[crisp nest]

but it takes basically all your energy and hydration (the etg)

so u need food afterwards if u dont have high metabolism

[tight ember]

alright I try some of those and take some food. I don't think I try odolbos since there is chance I die and I only want to try these weapons

[ivory ether]

is the reserve event still going no?

[hardy marsh]

Yes

[ivory ether]

ooh nice

[crisp nest]

so mule is when you get lots of loot and want to get to somewhere like the extract

[ivory ether]

cause a friend of mine told me the fog was gone so i was like

[crisp nest]

the etg is for when u get hit up bad

the propital is for as soon as you get in a fight but dont have painkillers on, u use it when u can

and sj6 and meldonin are for like getting to places really quick

[hardy marsh]

Odolbos

[terse anchor]

My second match I died of energy or thirst or something I was just like blinking then just passed out

Also what is insurance and how does it work

[hardy marsh]

If no one grabs your gear and gets out with it you will get it back

[hardy marsh]

But if someone grabs it it’s gone

[terse anchor]

Does insurance cost anything??

[crisp nest]

grab as in extract with it

[hardy marsh]

Yes roubles

[crisp nest]

yes

[terse anchor]

Like it seems like you’d obviously want to pay it

[crisp nest]

i mean... its insurance

[terse anchor]

Lol

Anyways wdym it doubles it

[hardy marsh]

Yes you always want to insure unless your kit is terrible

[terse anchor]

And how much do I pay?

[crisp nest]

not on labs

[hardy marsh]

Depends on how many items you insure

[terse anchor]

Does insurance go for everything on my body or just one item

[hardy marsh]

Everything you insure

[terse anchor]

Ah okay so it’s usually smart to do unless running a kit that’s not worth it

[crisp nest]

ooh wipe soon?

@terse anchor so for this kit, itd cost uhh lets see how much in insurance

[opaque violet]

Fog gone?

[crisp nest]

yes

[opaque violet]

dope

[unreal horizon]

Huh so it was in-game days

[crisp nest]

or it was 2 days irl

[unreal horizon]

Whatever I was honestly getting sick of the fog

[opaque violet]

It was the getting beamed by bosses you could not see being the most annoying

[crisp nest]

i have intel centre 3 and its still...

wtf

[opaque violet]

Yeah just like the assholes selling dbats for 950k when the fee is over that xD

[crisp nest]

lmao

least it sold

[hot tree]

cheap

kappa

[crisp nest]

i dont farm money in the event lol

[opaque violet]

I dont loot bodies

[hot tree]

but damn 17k for 1 bullet

[opaque violet]

Im just going for xp

[sand herald]

that's more than m61 wtf

[crisp nest]

all the noobs think vector is meta i guess

or they cant control it well

[sand herald]

nah actually, it's just people taking advantage of the fact that prapor's trade is out of stock

i checked it while it was on stock, they were around 3k

[crisp nest]

i mean it always is now basically

[opaque violet]

Put on a timer i guess

[crisp nest]

i wish sdn's had a buy limit

everyone buys like 100 on the reset

so its gone quite literally in 5 seconds

[sand herald]

5 seconds?

dude i wanted to get just 5 of them and like the moment it restocked it was gone

i was like "did it restock or no??"

same with m995s

and mechanic's barter for slicks

[crisp nest]

a lot of the people are probably using bots

[sand herald]

ion even know why would they use bots

like yeah you set up a bot to buy 100 sdns, you're bad at the game so it doesnt matter

[crisp nest]

🤷‍♂️ i know that people used to bot the zabralo aesa barter

cuz it was 100% profit to vendor

[pine osprey]

I'm looking to help out one or two new players at the beginning of this next wipe, I'm NA EST and you can DM me if you're interested.

[static pike]

new player here, started yesterday and am having a really hard time.
question, is learning all the extraction points on a map(and how to navigate to them) something you're expected to do before playing online raids?

I played a few matches and walking around hoping to find an extraction point doesn't seem like a good idea

[unreal horizon]

worth running around in offline

doesn't matter how good you are at killing people if you don't know where to leave

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov these maps are great

[static pike]

thank you

i saw a compass slot in my inventory but i don't seem to have one

[high void]

i think you need to find or buy a compass

[crisp nest]

u must get one

its useless though

[unreal horizon]

you get 1 from a quest

[woeful trail]

read the wiki and download the maps to view on a second monitor or your phone

[unreal horizon]

I mean it's objectively useful, just most people dont use them

[high void]

also how do you actually see people easily, most of the time i just get shot and i don't know from where

[crisp nest]

but u can always see a landmark

[woeful trail]

they will show you the extracts and some will show spawns

[high void]

i think a compass is great with the map

[static pike]

ayt

any particular map i should focus on learning first?

[crisp nest]

custom

[unreal horizon]

most people don't use their eyes

[crisp nest]

lmao

[static pike]

ayt ty

[unreal horizon]

they'll look at sunken cabins on shoreline and say "anyone know where this is"

[high void]

wait but how do you actually use your eyes to like, see people, i usually get shot and i cannot see where from and I'm just dead

[crisp nest]

sound and/or bullet tracer

or u run

[high void]

I do have spatial awareness it's just that its quite difficult to see them

oh...

[unreal horizon]

just find cover

you'll never win that fight

they're already ads'd on you, you need to locate them and lineup a shot

[safe rampart]

??wipe

[red current]

Nothing has been officially confirmed about the upcoming patch date or any future wipes. New info will be posted to #eft-announcements

[high void]

i see, so if you get shot at its best to find some cover fast to try to fight back or just embrace the fact that you just lost that raid lol

[unreal horizon]

just reposition movement is the most important aspect in this game

[high void]

What do you mean by reposition movement

Like change spots

be on the move like all the time?

[bold kernel]

everyone 3 4 manning factory yikes

[unreal horizon]

like never peek the same angle twice in a row

and always be moving durings fights

[high void]

oh correct

Because they're going to look right there waiting for you

[crisp nest]

sadly i wont

ill be flanking

because i expect ppl to not be dum dum

[bold kernel]

ervis u tryna play some factory

[crisp nest]

rather, did they replace all scavs with them?

[unreal horizon]

Probably, and yes

[merry dust]

absolute zero recoil beam

[crisp nest]

i dont get it lol

u killed him and....?

[umbral falcon]

im level 8 hes level 33

[barren oasis]

so

[umbral falcon]

i would be mad if that happened

[unreal horizon]

level doesn't mean much

[umbral falcon]

fair enough

[rough scarab]

level 33 is probs still bad

or not that good

[unreal horizon]

i've seen great lvl 10s and shit lvl 50s, and sometimes you just get tarkov'd 🤷

[quaint flicker]

depends on how many wipes one played before no? like someone who played 3 wipes and is level 10 would still be better than someone whos first wipe and level 50

[unreal horizon]

yeah

lvl isn't a great indicator of skill

you can no-life the game and suck or barely play and be talented

[pure marsh]

50/50 rule
