[proven saddle]

you dont

[patent scarab]

you do if you dont want a run thourgh and didnt kill anything

you need like 600xp to not get a run through

[zenith pawn]

.

nice man!

[proven saddle]

600 is nothing

[patent scarab]

a scav is not 600 xp my dude

[proven saddle]

it is combined with the 1.5 multiplier for surviving plus all the other bullshit you get

ill do an offline factory raid and show you

[patent scarab]

i dont care if there is a quest at the line i always wait 10 minutes and hide if i didnt kill a official player

[zenith pawn]

ok gamer90878

[proven saddle]

there you go

with 180 to spare

[patent scarab]

i dont care i would just wait 10 minutes just to make sure

if you have a quest i would wait

if you dont fuck it

[proven saddle]

killing a scav on any map guarantees you dont get a run through

heres how

even without the headshot bonus

you get exactly 600

[zenith pawn]

thanks

this gamer kid is mentally ill

[kindred stream]

how big is the game? Like how many gbs

[zenith pawn]

GIYF

[kindred stream]

giyf?

[zenith pawn]

google is your friend

meaning google it

took 30 secounds man

[proven saddle]

its a bit bigger

[zenith pawn]

around 30-40 now

[proven saddle]

nah

19.7

[zenith pawn]

oh lol

[oak vale]

anyone know why I cant give this to mechanic, It has more than 60 dur, more than 47 ergonomics, less than 950 recoil, 4 space cells, 6 round magazine and a tactical device?

[zenith pawn]

bullet in chamber

[zenith pawn]

bullets in mag

[oak vale]

No way that's the problem

let me check

I still can't hand it in

[zenith pawn]

you need a choke i think

look it up on youtube mate

[proven saddle]

plastic foregrip, plastic pistol grip and tactical choke

[proven saddle]

its not less than 950

[oak vale]

oh it's added

[proven saddle]

youve got 1030 recoil

[oak vale]

Now I get it

[proven saddle]

ye

[oak vale]

I tought it was just one of them not combined

[proven saddle]

950 vertical recoil would make you look straight up after one shot

[zenith pawn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRieb0fW440

@oak vale

[oak vale]

I found I had a choke but now I need a plastic forestock to attach the grip and I dont have acces to those because it's lvl 2 jaeger

[arctic shoal]

GK-02 muzzle anyone got this?

[proven saddle]

mechanic tactical 133 barter

take the choke, sell the rest

[rough scarab]

You don’t need the plastic foregrip

[arctic shoal]

dotn have elite

[proven saddle]

find em

[oak vale]

im missing ergonomics

[proven saddle]

or barter of them

[rough scarab]

As long as you have a Remington Cole it’s fine

[proven saddle]

you do

you do need it

[oak vale]

Yes, that's what I mean

[proven saddle]

also its one hdd so

[oak vale]

I need it

[arctic shoal]

Wait can people trade in this game?

[rough scarab]

No

[arctic shoal]

but like someone buys it than I give him money in a raid?

[proven saddle]

youre bound to get scammed

[hot tree]

^

[arctic shoal]

oh

than big sad

[hot tree]

why what did you want to do

[rough scarab]

Probs wanted someone to buy the choke and drop it for him

[arctic shoal]

yeah muzzle

[rough scarab]

Just do the barter

Hit up as many toolboxes and shit as you can

Once you find the elite stick it on your container so if you die you still have it

[tight ember]

can you kill raiders as scav? I lost 0.05 rep. I thought killing them was fine

[rough scarab]

No

[proven saddle]

you can

it was prob a normal scav

[tight ember]

maybe. he got pretty good helmet and vest. Looked like raider

[rough scarab]

You can check the name after

[tight ember]

oops forgot to do that

[wanton latch]

ayo for the Therapist water task in dorms what room is it? i cant remember

[proven saddle]

206

[wanton latch]

thank you

[quartz tiger]

Any gun recommendation for under lvl 10 and has a scope

[proven saddle]

op-sks

with pso scope

[quartz tiger]

Isn't that expensive?

[proven saddle]

no

its about 50k for the whole thing

[quartz tiger]

hmm ok

im broke af

[proven saddle]

you can try a vpo 215

with a pilad scope

but its a bad scope with a bad gun that shoots bad ammo

[quartz tiger]

ammo recommendation?

[proven saddle]

you literally only have one option

7.62x39 ps

[torn ledge]

Tarkov be like "Oh what's that? You need the Tarcone Director's key? HERE'S 3 OF THEM."

[light vector]

why is your stuff with yellow borders ?

is it like insured ?

[torn ledge]

Yeah, it's all insured.

[light vector]

got it. How did you get all those weapons tho ?

[restive kite]

for chemicals part 4 do i lose the 0.25 rep with the traders i dont pick?

@ me if you know

[ornate latch]

@torn ledge can i buy one of the keys?

[bold kernel]

i restarted my game

[torn matrix]

ah jeez factory for a toz doesnt end well. scavs attacking scavs. caught in crossfire. lose fence rep

[inland jacinth]

Can someone help me out with the 60 rounder and the grip needed for gunsmith 2?

[bold kernel]

quick question what do i need a thermometer for?

[tulip whale]

Also for water collector and booze generator in hideout

[zinc heron]

water collector isn't shown on wiki, weird

[hot tree]

@zinc heron its in here https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Hideout

[zinc heron]

no i'm talking about in the thermometer page

of the wiki

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

[bold kernel]

so its worth keeping then?

[zinc heron]

it's a good barter item

[hot tree]

ah i see

[tulip whale]

Honestly probably not worth keeping, they are pretty easy to find and dont cost much on the flea so if you are trying to hold onto items for the hideout i wouldnt hold onto thermometers

[desert tulip]

anyone willing to help me do aquatics mission?

[zinc heron]

the one where you go to dorms right?

[hot tree]

ah yes the ask a question and dont respond

[zinc heron]

[hot tree]

do you know the name of the anime of your profile picture? @zinc heron

i think i know it

[zinc heron]

womder egg priority

[light vector]

LETS GO FIRST SUCCESSFUL ESCAPE

[light vector]

lol idk why my games on my second monitor

[zinc heron]

lmao

[bold kernel]

can anyone please help me and my friend we're not getting anywhere and we're just losing gear at this point

[pastel shale]

anyone wanna duo?

[urban crystal]

meant to buy ammo and accidentally bought mags

🤡

[sand herald]

reminds me of that guy that wanted to buy like 1k m995 and bought 10k on accident

[unique cobalt]

@urban crystal RIP

[light vector]

not much but it is what it is

[zinc heron]

AYE YO

[light vector]

how do i get bullets ? do i have to buy them or i can craft them ?

[unique cobalt]

@light vector just a personal opinion, dont keep/use any shotgun rounds except for red buckshot and ap-20

[fervent pawn]

Im pretty knew to the game but everytime I try to launch it the launcher crashse and i get an error message then when it loads my monitor shuts of for a couple seconds and then it says something about anti cheat not working can anybody help?

[light vector]

so i can sell the ones in my pouch ?

[unique cobalt]

If you're looking for ammo customs is a great place to find ammo uncontested. Try and find checkpoint key(really easy) I always check above the little room with the gun box in power building too

Yes and clear up all the others in your stash, you dont want to use them by mistake

[light vector]

alrighty thank you for the tip

[unique cobalt]

you're welcome mate

[unique cobalt]

this is not a common issue, have you tried a re-install? tarkov doesn't like HDDs too

[fervent pawn]

Yea I have reinstalled and still have the issue.

[unique cobalt]

damn dude, have you run the game before? if so, what's changed since you last ran it. maybe try turning off your hacks? XD

[dire eagle]

Going to have to be a little more specific about the error you're getting. "something about anti-cheat" could mean a couple of things, for instance that its detecting a software that it doesnt like, that you're banned (probably not), that it hasn't been installed properly, or that it may be blocked from running for w/e reason

[ornate latch]

ur computers not strong enough

[dire eagle]

#community-support Might provide more useful help though, as its more dedicated to tech-support

[fervent pawn]

Well the thing is I have played the game plenty before and all of a sudden the other day BAM it was just bugging out.

[tiny ocean]

anyone got choke for mechanic gunsmith ?? i've been stuck there since i started playing weeks ago

[unique cobalt]

@tiny ocean mechanic LL1 has a trade for an MP133 that's almost perfect for the quest

[light vector]

does it matter if my helmet's visor is down or up ?

[unique cobalt]

would you like face protection or not?

[light vector]

ofc

[tiny ocean]

yes i think i already have that mp133 but still no choke on it, only got 3 other parts

[unique cobalt]

has to be down for the protection to be active

[dire eagle]

His point was just that Mechanic sells a mp133 with the specific choke that you're looking for, 2 elite pliers and 1 screwdriver for his modified shotgun (:

[unique cobalt]

yes, the trade is for a modded 133, correct me if I'm wrong but I think you just need to take the optic mount off to hand in the shotgun. also always make sure the chamber and mag are empty when you hand in gunsmith quests

[tiny ocean]

okey will take me forever to find these items to trade for modified mp133 but i will give it a try thanks !

[cosmic tinsel]

gotta slap a tactical device on too. only comes with a flashlight

skier sells tbl for 4k

[dire eagle]

Run interchange, specifically the back of the major stores (storage areas), plenty of loose tools and toolboxes there, should find the items very quickly. Can even do it as a scav

[tiny ocean]

alright i will try it tonight thanks alot bro

[dire eagle]

Good luck

[unique cobalt]

customs is great too, loot the buildings on the eastern side of the map and you'll get em in no time. Interchange definitely has more spawns though

[dire eagle]

Yep, customs is a good option as well, since you probably have some quests to do there. 2 birds 1 stone and all that

[merry dust]

https://medal.tv/clips/57615938/d1337BQmG6iR

dumbass

https://medal.tv/clips/57616013/d1337bDgvwkt

dumbass #2

[proven saddle]

yo why is resort safe key 70k on the market

is there something to it i dont know about?

[dire eagle]

Goes for 54k to therapist, so its probably just supply/demand for it that pushes it slightly above that

[bold kernel]

awesome game i just lost all this loot trying to load on custom and getting kicked for no reason...trying to reconnect and still didnt connected to the game

[dire eagle]

You're not able to reconnect? Also, what was the error?

[severe river]

So do you guys use binaural audio? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

[bold kernel]

lost conection error

[dire eagle]

You got high ping, or a dodgy connection?

[bold kernel]

nope

never got an error in my life in this game

[dire eagle]

Welp, idk then, especially if you're unable to reconnect

[unique cobalt]

maybe you mistakenly ticked a server in the launcher that's >150 ping. shit like this rarely happens randomly

[bold kernel]

awesome looks like im the luckies guy huh

how do u split ammo,money,etc ?

[viscid storm]

ctrl + drag it to another slot

[bold kernel]

thank u ❤️

[viscid storm]

npnp

[unreal python]

i should just sell this one right, looking at the stats?

[bold kernel]

Does someone know why this doesn't work for Gunsmith Part 4?

[severe river]

So do you guys use binaural audio? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

[dire eagle]

Which gunsmith is this? God im dumb

[bold kernel]

Part 4

[dire eagle]

Yeah my bad, im just blind

It has too much recoil, 250 is max

[dire eagle]

I'd suggest looking it up on youtube as it can be hard to explain. In simple terms, its supposed to make audio better/more accurate, but its still in a testing phase development wise. I have it on and like it, others don't, which is why checking out some comparisons and testing it for yourself is needed for this setting (:

[bold kernel]

I watched a youtube video and they told me to buy all this, what should i change to lower the recoil?

[proven saddle]

check bakeezys video

you need ergo grip, shift foregrip and bravo sight

[proven saddle]

thats for you

[bold kernel]

thanks, i watched an outdated video and didn't know they had changed this task.

[dire eagle]

Yeah, use the wiki for gunsmith. Some things may be changed for this recent wipe, so pay attention to what mechanic says compared to what the wiki's requirement says, and adjust accordingly if needed (:

[ornate latch]

where do i find fuel for my generator

[hollow minnow]

Good spot for fuel is the oli part of the mall on interchange

[ornate latch]

aha any good store names to go to there?

[hollow minnow]

Jaeger lvl 2 sells fuel as well

[ornate latch]

yea im lvl 9 so i just unlock him

[hollow minnow]

If you can stop at techno and techlight, generally its an easy gpu if your there first

Risky tho

[ornate latch]

yea i need fuel not tech

[dire eagle]

Oli also has Propane and Fuel conditioner spawns which you can barter for fuel

[hollow minnow]

Fuel spawns pretty commonly in duffles and stashes 4 me but thats just rng

[ornate latch]

aha'

thanks

[dreamy cobalt]

second day on playing tarkov where can i get more loot?

[bold kernel]

recommend checking shoreline stash locations and just running those, pretty safe and grants lots of loot.

[final frigate]

Where is the zibbo lighter?

[pure mist]

Task?

[final frigate]

Jup

[pure mist]

Dorms 303

You need a key

[final frigate]

Can I do it as scav?

[pure mist]

No

[pure marsh]

No

[final frigate]

Alright

[dire eagle]

Only quest related thing you can do as a scav is find FIR items

[final frigate]

Also what stops people from forming a party that'll popualte an entire server and just farm items?

[dire eagle]

Other players can stop them

[final frigate]

Buit itsn't factory like 5 man?

What is the max group size

[pure mist]

Factory day is now 6 man

Night is 7

[dire eagle]

Yeah people can go 5 man on factory and essentially dominate it, but there is little reason to do so, as the loot is subpar, with only 1-2 other players to fight

[pure mist]

Customs is 12 or something like that

[pure mist]

Yeah really not fun 5 man factory

[final frigate]

fair enough

[dire eagle]

I've run into a 5 man on factory once. I was running a pistol trying to do a quest.
So the only thing they got was that pistol and my tag. Rest of the raid would've just been scavs for them

[vague dew]

what's the difference between ps gs and prs gs?

I see their the same caliber so I assume they both work for the ak-74

[dire eagle]

prs is dogshit, PS is slightly less dogshit (:

[vague dew]

re

what's good for that gun that I can buy with lol 1 traders?

lvl

Just want to try it out

[haughty forum]

whats the best early wipe scope for the m4a1

[pure marsh]

Vepr KM IMO, it's an SKS with better recoil, 30 round mags, and you can add a scope

[dire eagle]

I would not recommend running 5.45 ammo at low levels. 7.62 is vastly superior ammo wise - which is why people recommend guns such as the SKS

[vague dew]

I'm using an sks for the most part

[pure mist]

Rfb really good early gun

With m80

[vague dew]

but if yall are so against it will go back to sks

[dire eagle]

Another option is running bolt-action snipers to level up your sniper skill. Can get some pretty good ammo for those early on

[vague dew]

not good at headshots etc uet

*yet

[pure marsh]

Mosin men

[lime copper]

why cant i sell some guns to dealers?

[rough scarab]

low durability

[pure mist]

Dura

[lime copper]

has to be over 50?

[pure mist]

60

Has to be over 60

[lime copper]

wtf

[dire eagle]

Scopes are largely personal preference, if you're able to, grab one of each scope that you have available and test them out. You can use the wiki or youtube videos for some previews, though do note that this patch reworked the looks of a lot of scopes

[pure marsh]

Vepr-km, give it a shot, level 1 Skier

[rough scarab]

vepr has decent modability too

[vague dew]

only single fire?

I guess that'd what an sks is

[rough scarab]

yes

[vague dew]

hm

will try it

[dire eagle]

Sell the low durability guns to Fence, sometimes you can repair a gun above the 60% threshold if you really need the money spent on your vendors

[pure marsh]

You can add, a muzzle device, foregrip, sight, light/laser and 30 round mags

[rough scarab]

ive been doing all my repairs with skier to get his rouble up

[pure marsh]

Me too lmaooo

[haughty forum]

i just got tarkov yesterday and this has to be the most confusing game to start playing

[rough scarab]

i need to dollar farm pk for level 2

[vague dew]

who sells 30 round mags?

[rough scarab]

for?

[vague dew]

the vepr

[rough scarab]

parpor

prapor

[dire eagle]

The beginning is always the hardest. It will only get easier with time!

[haughty forum]

should i be running night raids or day raids

[lime copper]

depends

if u want to do quests go do night

less interaction with other ppl

[rough scarab]

unless its a get pmc kills quest

[vague dew]

what about ammo for the vepr?

[lime copper]

PS

[rough scarab]

prapor

[vague dew]

ty

[lime copper]

this scav karma sometimes doesnt make sense

[pure marsh]

PS slaps all wipe lmao

[pure mist]

Note there are 2 veprs

[dire eagle]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics Try to learn this chart for the ammo you want to use. It visualises pretty well how good each ammo is :)

[lime copper]

a scav kills my friend and another scav, and when i kill him i dont get any karma

[pure mist]

Late wipe it’s not good lol

Face shot only

[lime copper]

its decent late wipe tbh

[pure marsh]

Death by volume of fire. You thought I was running BP on labs?

[rough scarab]

maybe in an ak

[pure marsh]

I'm a baller on a budget

[pure mist]

Lol I always run bp after second week of wipe

Unless I’m dead broke

[final frigate]

How do I get thermite?

[rough scarab]

loot stuff

[final frigate]

Ive been lotting since lv. 1 I am 12 now

Havnt seen it once

[pure mist]

It’s not common

[pure mist]

Why do you need it

[rough scarab]

probs workbench

[pure marsh]

I've found most of mine on Labs

Sadly that's not helpful for ya

[final frigate]

@pure marsh Thanks

[pure mist]

Underground spawns often enough to find one

On those boxes

[pure marsh]

Yup

And propane

[unique cobalt]

you can also find thermite on the shelves behind all the tills in IDEA

[pure mist]

They are all not often so I would just recommend buy on flea

[unique cobalt]

lots of high tier spawns there

[pure marsh]

IC is IC tho 🤮

[pure mist]

Yep

I never go there other than when ragman force me to

[pure marsh]

Yup. That place is a cesspool, the earlier you knock out those quests the better

[bold kernel]

how rare is it to find class 6 slick plate carrier?

[pure marsh]

Pretty rare honestly

[haughty forum]

can i check what quest i have while im in a raid

[bold kernel]

just found it on one of those scav bodies that spawns in next to car at customs lol

[bold kernel]

open your menu and at the top go to tasks

[merry dust]

theres a few spawns on labs

[daring forge]

any idea why it says my pmc in wounded when its at full health and in game i have blurred vision?

[pure marsh]

Do you have a fracture? Dehydration? No energy?

[daring forge]

guess i had a fracture

i was having an issue last night where id heal and it couldnt say i did

[broken estuary]

Is there an lfg or do we just hop in a group?

[brazen surge]

its probably not worth keeping these barrels to build an HK later right

[pure marsh]

Both but here
#pvp-lfg

[steel cape]

omg, i died from dehydration with 7 seconds left on the timer on the car extract

why

[pure marsh]

You ran out of healing?

[brazen surge]

did your head or other limbs black out?

[steel cape]

i did not have any damage, i just ded

my stomach and leg was black

some guy shoot me up good

i was healed full and couldnt use medical more

but i died anyway

[sand herald]

You can keep the 20 inch barrel that's the good one

[willow swift]

why am I getting a backend error code when trying to sell something?

[pure marsh]

You died from energy loss

[brazen surge]

yeah the 20 inch is the meta, the 16 is just like budget, but i guess how hard is it to find receivers and such for the HK lol

[willow swift]

error 518

[sand herald]

Eh I think when you buy the HK you get a 16.5 inch barrel anyway

[final frigate]

But my barrel is 18 inches

[pure marsh]

Nice 😎

[barren berry]

@rough scarab ding-ding-ding-ding_____ding-ding-ding

• amogus sound *

[rough scarab]

mogus

[barren berry]

feels good

(killa headshot from 7 m)

[brazen surge]

for gunsmith do i just need to get the 6 round barrel to get the space requirement

[rough scarab]

durability is too low

[brazen surge]

*not erg, the space

[rough scarab]

and yea probs

you can buy it from jaeger

[final frigate]

I find this "Damage dealth to body" statistic hard to interpretet, let's say I dit 108 dmg, what does it tell me other than how much dmg I did? Like did I destroy a limb, did I do dmg across multiple limbs

[cosmic tinsel]

you're not gonna like the answer 😄

[elder yarrow]

Need signal part 1. Never been to shoreline. Hatchling run?

[rough scarab]

no

take a gun

[final frigate]

Well I am curious because I've done more than 340 dmg to people, which is your total health pool right?

[elder yarrow]

no weapon boxes on shoreline?

[cosmic tinsel]

440

[rough scarab]

health pool is 440

[final frigate]

Fair

[rough scarab]

isnt it damage done to total body

[elder yarrow]

yes

[brazen surge]

plus if they healed in between they can take more to body technically

[elder yarrow]

each limb takes dmg till blacked

then spread

[pure marsh]

The best time to get mad is whenever you shoot someone in the face and only get like 33 damage

[final frigate]

Do you die when you take dmg on a blacked limb?

[rough scarab]

lol

only if you have a blacked thorax or head

[elder yarrow]

so essentially its more efficent for you to arm someone rather than leg

any limb

[cosmic tinsel]

it distributes it to the rest of your body, times a coefficient. legs are 1x, stomach 1.25 i think, arms .75? someone correct me if im wrong

[final frigate]

What happens if you keep shooting at a black limb?

Leg for example

[elder yarrow]

didnt know this

[rough scarab]

it redistributes with the damage coefficnent

[cosmic tinsel]

it distributes it to the rest of your body, times a coefficient. legs are 1x, stomach 1.25 i think, arms .75? someone correct me if im wrong

XD

this is why leg meta is viable, fwiw

[elder yarrow]

but arms have lower heath pool

[pure marsh]

You're close

[elder yarrow]

lower coefficient seems poo

[rough scarab]

if you check your health breakdown on the death screen sometimes youll see "collateral from x" which is from a limb being blacked and taking damage

[elder yarrow]

Ya but that requires me to do math and fuq dat

[pure marsh]

Arms= .70
Legs= 1
Stomach= 1.5

[rough scarab]

no it doesnt

it just shows that the damage redistributes

[elder yarrow]

If i were to calculate the % of dmg caused to other limbs based off of how much pen/hp the ammo im being dmgd by. ya thats math

[cosmic tinsel]

sure, but you also dont need to

[elder yarrow]

talking about the coefficients still

[pure marsh]

Just aim legs and you don't need math

[final frigate]

Can someone help me with farming in Factory?

[rough scarab]

it doesnt show you how much damage u took lol

it just says its collateral damage

[pure marsh]

Try joining a 5 stack on the VCs

[elder yarrow]

maybe im too high and not thinking too much bout maf

[rough scarab]

i should get a factory team

[elder yarrow]

i need pmc kills in office

[rough scarab]

I have 995, m61, and mai ap I can shit on tagilla

[elder yarrow]

I got BP ammo 😄

[pure marsh]

I used an SKS for it last wipe

Took me 3 raids

[rough scarab]

I had a 4 man rush office trying to quest and thats how I completed the quest

[elder yarrow]

only went in twice now. got 2 in one raid then none the next bcuz 5v1

[pure marsh]

You should have clapped them

[elder yarrow]

im assuming they did

[final frigate]

It seems that I dont have to extract for the farming quest.

Ez

[pure mist]

close quarters fight you can just use a lightly modded automatic ak

[rough scarab]

you do

[hollow sparrow]

is the vepr hunter any good? i wanna try sniping and see if it gets me anywhere

[pure mist]

it's good

[rough scarab]

yes

[pure mist]

it shoots m80 which kills most things this early in a wipe

later mid wipe you want to use m61

[hollow sparrow]

i got one off my scav with a silencer

[pure mist]

there's a cheap barter for the silencer

[hollow sparrow]

whats a good scope to use early with it? or does anything really work?

[pure mist]

anything works really

it is a budget weapon

tac 30 really good

you need a svd low mount

[pure marsh]

PSO works

[pure mist]

and some other mount also works

if he has jaeger 2 tac 30 is insane

this wipe it's vude>tac30>every other optic

[hollow sparrow]

well unfortunately i dont yet

[pure mist]

then pso is fine

[hollow sparrow]

i havent been doing good enough on raids to get anywhere

[pure mist]

just the fov is not good

[pure mist]

just focus on quests early wipe

and pick up things as you do them

[hollow sparrow]

ive got to do the kill scav quests on woods, should i just bring sks and nothing else?

since i have to do jaegers thing anyways

[fleet ermine]

Hello, I'm new to escape from tarkov and pc gaming, anyone willing to teach me and guide me, I'm kinda stuck at the moment

[pure marsh]

I always bring armor, headset, and a bag at a minimum 🤷

[rough scarab]

bring armor in a bag if its the kills with no armor quest

or you can snipe and drop the armor before you kill them

[pure mist]

no helmet gang

[haughty forum]

@fleet ermine same ive watched hours of how to play the game and twitch streams and still have no clue

[pure mist]

somewhere around your 200th death you'll start to understand the game

sad but true

[haughty forum]

I have a map of customs open and have yet to figure out how to find the extracts lmao

[hot tree]

thats normal just go offline or as a scav

[hollow sparrow]

Well

I just lost another gunfight

my game froze every shot I took

[hot tree]

how much ram do you have

[hollow sparrow]

16 gig

[hot tree]

weird

[hollow sparrow]

There is zero reason that should’ve happened

[olive turret]

shotgun or pp19 full auto

as long as its in one of the three floors/stairways of office it counts

got most of mine in bathroom and 1st floor of office

[rough scarab]

if you get a good spawn maybe camp the stairs

[steel cape]

are there any clever tricks or strategies, specific areas to go etc to find the stuff i need to trade for this key? i need it for a quest

[sinful tusk]

[inner mountain]

does everyone elses launcher have to do critical updates like every day?

[sinful tusk]

anyone have dorm 203

trade for ledx or tetriz?

[inner mountain]

if you use a FIR key does it lose FIR?

[proven saddle]

theres no trading allowed

[pure marsh]

No but if you bring it into a raid it will

[proven saddle]

got me this time

[pure marsh]

Get gud

[hot tree]

if you use them it will loose the fir anyways

[proven saddle]

really?

if you find em in the same raid?

[hot tree]

👀

upsi

my bad

[steel cape]

argh

took my sweet time, sneaking around, checking everything.. oneshot in the head from nowhere

@proven saddle sorry but your gear barely lasted 20 mintues :D

[proven saddle]

lol no worries

hope you put the key in your container

[steel cape]

yeah i did

[arctic shoal]

help I need to get to goshan

[bold kernel]

what do i do with my tetriz

[unreal horizon]

aren't you in it rn?

just straight left

[arctic shoal]

IM CLOSE

[unreal horizon]

you're in the warehouse part of it

[arctic shoal]

yteah

I saw 2 people I aint going there

[slow vapor]

anyone know where im at in relation to sawmill

[hollow sparrow]

just got domed again on woods without even seeing anybody

This game is really good at making you feel hopeless man

[arctic shoal]

should I take hole in the fence extract? (ik that I cant have my bp)

[unreal horizon]

you're in medical camp, a bit east of it

[rain nymph]

so im supposed to kill scavs on woods and im at lumber and none are spawning. Its about 10 minutes into the game

[unreal horizon]

if you need to, it's not a very big loss

[torn matrix]

no/ reg extract to keep hand drill

[rain nymph]

anyone know why?

[glass oxide]

scavs dont spawn when players are nearby

[arctic shoal]

I have one btw

this is my second

[torn matrix]

flea?

[slow vapor]

ok which way do i have to head if i look at the lake

right?

[gaunt agate]

where is the LFG part of this discord

[unreal horizon]

west

[arctic shoal]

no I dont have it

[proven saddle]

backpack is useless

[unreal horizon]

look at sniper rock, and run to like 10 o'clock

[proven saddle]

i mean nothing is that useful honestly

[arctic shoal]

I need money rn

[torn matrix]

lol they why would you not take more loot then leave?

[proven saddle]

you should focus on roubles/slot instead of roubles/item

hand drill is kinda bad

[arctic shoal]

im without armor with a pistol

thats why

[snow sandal]

any tips on getting the 3 scav kills for jaegar with no meds? For me scavs just dont exist on woods

[pure mist]

why not just do cache runs instead

on shoreline or something

interchange works as well

[arctic shoal]

im very new and I mostly know interchange

[pure mist]

go around outside and hit the stashes

[arctic shoal]

yeah ik

[pure mist]

really quick run

much better than going into the mall.....

[arctic shoal]

they were looted and I had a garage spawn so idk

got everything poggers

bannable

[brisk owl]

did not know!

[arctic shoal]

I found mine in interchange, in that electric box

[brisk owl]

i've searched like 40+ toolboxes on both customs and interchange

no luck

[arctic shoal]

sad

happens sometimes

I think there is a quest or smth with akali?

[flint walrus]

I'm struggling with stash space, wondering if I should just sell all my loose ammo?

[crisp nest]

if it was trading, its not bannable

its against rules

[arctic shoal]

it says smth about boosting?

I thought its illegal

[crisp nest]

i didnt see it

i just thought it was trading

cuz he said he needs a tollbox item

[brisk owl]

i was just asking for a spark plug

[crisp nest]

toolbox

yeah thats just trading

[brisk owl]

woulda paid roubles

[cosmic tinsel]

its not about that

[crisp nest]

its not bannable

[cosmic tinsel]

sometimes people will just drop tho

[crisp nest]

boosting is completely different

aka cheater killing everyone and giving the player loot

[arctic shoal]

so i need an 02 muzzle from jaeger LL2

will someone help me?

[pure mist]

do the barter from mechanic

he got muzzle you need

[fallow remnant]

how much does the RB-VO marked key go for

[proven saddle]

tarkov-market.com

[cosmic tinsel]

i bought mine for ~70k

[fallow remnant]

thx

[proven saddle]

swear to god someone has to pin that website

[cosmic tinsel]

tarkov-market has everything tho

[fallow remnant]

sorry i didn't know don't get mad homie

[proven saddle]

i know you didnt, thats why it should be pinned

so people find out

[fallow remnant]

ok

[crude dagger]

who sells VP101 mags for the hunter

[arctic shoal]

GK-02

this is the one I need

[lusty glacier]

How did I 3 tap a guy in the head who had a Ronin with pst gzh

[crisp nest]

ronin is class 3

[crisp nest]

jaeger 2 and 3

[arctic shoal]

I'd pay for it aswell

[lusty glacier]

I thought pst is only good up to class 2

[crisp nest]

but u see, it damages the armor

so then theres a higher chance each time

and it does blunt damage to his head

[lusty glacier]

O

First one or two shots hit his helmet and made a sound

[olive turret]

id like to think it went DING

[crisp nest]

u got lucky lol

[lusty glacier]

Idk if it ricoched or just was blocked

[pure mist]

there's another one that also works

[crisp nest]

ricochet probably

[pure mist]

it's tier 2 right?

[crisp nest]

3

[arctic shoal]

yh

huh

[lusty glacier]

I was ready to unload another 25 shots into his face anyway, there's no recoil on the saiga 9 :)

[arctic shoal]

so anyone got jaeger 2?

[pure mist]

the remington 12 thing also works

[crisp nest]

no recoil and no damage

[lusty glacier]

Don't need damage if you are ScreaM

[crisp nest]

scream plays valo now

[crisp nest]

what if they have altyn though lol

[lusty glacier]

Yea, he had good aim but not enough skill for EU cs

[lusty glacier]

How many shots to penetrate altyn? :D

[crisp nest]

most likely 15?

around that

well it wont penetrate

[lusty glacier]

Ez men

[crisp nest]

it will damage their head

and blunt damage it

to death

[lusty glacier]

As long as they don't shoot me it should be easy win

[crisp nest]

i think they'll shoot u xD

[lusty glacier]

Is the stm-9 better than the saiga and where can I get it?

[crisp nest]

yes but full auto guns are just better

[lusty glacier]

Not if they lay their eyes upon my godly tarkov drip

[crisp nest]

uhh i get mine from scavs

i dont use them

[lusty glacier]

No man, full auto guns have recoil

[crisp nest]

stm u can buy at higher level trdres

traders

[crisp nest]

just spray control

be like forsaken and have no recoil

[lusty glacier]

Seems pretty hard

Is it not easier to just tap the head

[arctic shoal]

pray for me

[lusty glacier]

If I spray I'm most likely to hit the body

Wish I could track people through walls as good as forsaken

[arctic shoal]

how good is this?

[pure marsh]

It's okay ig

[grim crag]

when do pscavs spawn in on reserve?

[proven saddle]

after ~10 mins

[grim crag]

ok nice, thanks!

[arctic shoal]

how should I grind xp?

[cosmic tinsel]

raiders and bosses are pretty much the highest xp thing you can do, but they're difficult and contested

safest bet is do quests and try to survive - surviving gives you 50% more xp

[pure mist]

quests or labs raiders

[arctic shoal]

im a newbie how do u expect me to do labs?

[proven saddle]

im not and i still dont expect myself to do labs

i hate it

[arctic shoal]

I have some psus but dont have flea (lvl7) do i sell em?

[proven saddle]

psus?

[arctic shoal]

psu

[proven saddle]

oh

[arctic shoal]

the fan 2x2

[proven saddle]

yeah sell em

about 20k

or nvm

about 13

[arctic shoal]

they 20k flea and 5k to therapist

I dont have flea

[pure mist]

i didn't tell you to go labs

[arctic shoal]

[bold kernel]

Is there a easier way to do shooter born in heaven

[pure mist]

you can cheese it

with 10 friends

[bold kernel]

How

[crisp nest]

3

[unreal horizon]

just do it normally it's not hard, just time consuming

[crisp nest]

if u do dead server

[pure mist]

people select one server at dead hrs

[unreal horizon]

only hard map for it is customs

[pure mist]

also why do shooter born when kappa is level 71

[bold kernel]

Not true

[hot tree]

what do you mean

it is level 71

[crisp nest]

^^

confirmed

[hot tree]

with video

[crisp nest]

and viibin has every kappa quest done

no collector yet

[hot tree]

maybe new kappa quests

[bold kernel]

Also free mag case

[inner mountain]

I dont mind helpin u later when i get home later

[inner mountain]

delivery from the past ive been stuck on it awhile

[grim crag]

when do pscavs stop spawning in?

[radiant jacinth]

do you need to stay next to payed vehicle extract the entire time, or can you go back to it right before the end of timer?

[grim crag]

get right back to it

[radiant jacinth]

thx

[crisp nest]

no real timer but lowest ive got was 10 mins

on factory, maybe like 7

[grim crag]

hmm ok thanks

[crimson otter]

do you check each and every angle?

[unborn cloak]

Did they change the requirements for textiles part 1?

[crimson otter]

I just got beamed

[unborn cloak]

last pack of strike couldn't find it

[rough scarab]

[proven saddle]

youre in a vc rn

[elfin pendant]

in simple terms, what does nvidia reflex do? does it boost fps and should i have it on?

[proven saddle]

it reduces input lag

no correlation to fps

[unborn cloak]

Yes have it turned on

[proven saddle]

i didnt notice a change but my pc is pretty good

[elfin pendant]

ok and i also have to go to nvidia control panel and turn low latency mode to ultra right?

[unborn cloak]

although I was hoping DLSS would come out before reflex

[bold kernel]

so i was playing scav with 2 other scavs

[proven saddle]

no

[bold kernel]

how come they were able to extract from ruaf roadblock but i wasnt?

i was at the same spot they were at in customs

[unborn cloak]

scavs have different extracts

even if they spawn together

[elfin pendant]

oh on eroktik's video he said to turn it to ultra

it will still work if low latency mode is off?

[proven saddle]

again, didnt notice a change anyway

do you feel like you have input lag?

[elfin pendant]

i havent tried it yet. im going in a raid soon

should i have it on "on" or "on and boost"?

[proven saddle]

id say off if you dont have issues

[cyan fjord]

for The survivalist path - Zhivchik
do i need to survive and extract?

what happens if i die after spending 5 mins in dehydration?

do i need to spend another 5 mins in dehydration or just survive and extract any map

[unborn cloak]

I believe you do have to extreact

[cyan fjord]

i need to re-do it if i die?

[proven saddle]

you do

[proven saddle]

yes

[cyan fjord]

ty

[unborn cloak]

Have they changed textile part 1 pre-requisites

[crimson otter]

guys

do you check each angle?

I got beamed by 2 rats

[proven saddle]

yes and no

[unborn cloak]

what do you mean each angle

[unreal horizon]

of course not its impractical to clear everything

[unborn cloak]

I check common spots

[crimson otter]

First time it has happened

[unborn cloak]

and where I hear footsteps

[proven saddle]

i dont actually check but im aware

[crimson otter]

they were proning in the grass

no way of hearing

[proven saddle]

prob heard you

[crimson otter]

steps

[unborn cloak]

they may have moved and made the grass rustle

thats what gives them away for me

[cyan fjord]

[crimson otter]

do level 4 players know all about it or am I fine for now

~15 hrs

@proven saddle

[proven saddle]

[crimson otter]

what makes a gun broken

[rough scarab]

wdym broken

[crimson otter]

I mean someone like me

[rough scarab]

like not work

[pure marsh]

Durability below 60

[crimson otter]

[bold kernel]

im in customs & im hiding in a corner

[proven saddle]

what time do player scavs spawn in?

[proven saddle]

[topaz yew]

[pure marsh]

I'm pretty sure it's once an entity leaves a raid. Death or extraction

[crimson otter]

[proven saddle]

i think pmc, not entity

[pure marsh]

NEEERRRRRDDDDDDD

[proven saddle]

tru

[topaz yew]

did you guys know that if you kill a pmc as a scav is gives you rep from fence and it tells you how much in game so you know that you killed them. Now you dont need to wonder if you killed them it tells you

[bold kernel]

I hear grenades

[pure valley]

@pure marsh I've watched videos so i'm not completely running in blind, should be alright.

[proven saddle]

it always shows

[pure marsh]

That's what I said

[proven saddle]

yes you are, youll see

[bold kernel]

look what i found in a raid

[topaz yew]
