anyone got any tips on learning woods?
noice thanks
Just run the card as often as possible and watch out for the large Rock
Then you can finde the ways more eas
run the card?
map sry xD
oh ok lol
Run offline and learn extracts/loot spots extractions etc.
map is so huge cant find anything that helps me know where i am
i am learning offline and watched some yt vids but i must have alziemers cuz litteraly no clue where tf i am
lmao
Do you play alone or with friends?
Maybe I could show you the map a little
woods has a bunch of landmarks
use offline mode too
yuh i am
any tips to not die in fights as often?
Prevent them
Learn a type of gun
only one i can find is the big rock
what are the other landmarks?
go in with nothing and knife people
scav house, fob, all broken town, town
lmao... everytime i get into a fight i seem to die
i've lost most of my gear this way
Just keep on trying
lol
what i did i spawn in and focus on making it to extract one by one overtime it goes into your memory
is the game easier to learn if i just play with others? i feel confused most of the time in a game
most of the time you should stay hidden and not make much noise when possible , but when u see a player use your advantage and shoot first how many bullets you can , increasing the chance of killing him
or watch youtubers on the map you wanna learn
i learned easier with people
Game is so much easier when people help
Get somebody that knows the game
Run scavs on cooldown and use those gear sets, try to learn something from every death, dont rush into fights, you got this.
I'll keep that in mind and try looking to play with others, thanks :)
thx everyone
what does this do in the flea market?
Say I have 10 wires FIR in my stash. With that on I click one of them and it will auto select the other 9 to be listed together. Otherwise I have to click each one individually
is there anyone with a lil squad going who i can run factory with, to drop off delivery from the past safely? eu/na
ahhh thank u 🙂
someone buy my 11sr card only one on the market and I paid like 400k to keep it up please
lmao
Need help with skier quest extortionist - I got the case, but it says I am still missing once check mark to be complete and turn it in?
Which check
?
Why would you go to beginners to advertise a 11sr lmao
people with high hours shitpost in beginners constantly
good?
that's wrong item
ohhh
deliver from the past item, you got there
what the heck really
afaik
Best boss for loot?
Very good
Ty for info
Sanitar wit taped key
IMO shturman if you can get his box stuff out
Yeah but I don’t consider tape key sanitar loot cause it can be so far from him plus you can get it other ways. But fair point
One of them you get from a quest, the other yes jackets or buy it on flea
you're level 5 so that's how you're getting every key rn lol
I keep getting empty slot bug in my rig and then reload into a mag that shoots blanks. Any tips to avoid it ?
Where can i LFG'
why is gpu good?
how many docs cases is enough?
i have 4 right now and just got a 5th one, think i should just sell it?
Why do you need that many ?
give one to me ^-^
it makes bitcoin
who do i barter it to
even though I got 3 kills in one raid
but after the 3 kills I used meds
should I just have let myself die
it's just a vendor item
well 4 of them arent FIR so i figured it'd be better to just keep them, but the one i just got i can actually put on flea
ye
btc
no
oh
if it's fir, save it
lel
i looked at the wrong person
U really don't need a docs case for every map unless u want to use it for storage - sell it.
could you make this discussion a bit more confusing pls, you two
R.I.P whoever i met on that scav run and we tried taking reshala lol
you need 3 fir gpu for a quest
hope you made it out
what
ok so i just need 3 fir gpus for quest right
yes
kk but what do i do with this not fir gpu tho
bitcoin farming
isnt that nerfed
i dont have btc farm
then you keep it for when you unlock it lmao
Does anyone have the keys on Reserve for "Disease History" quest from Therapist? The keys are: rb-ksm and rb-smp.
Also need to get in to room 306 in the resort on shoreline for a quest. Anyone able to tag along with me and help? (we can go with pistols or w.e so we dont lose gear)
Define nerf, if you mean like the pre wipe event then no they put the timer backs if you mean value of Bitcoin it’s lower then peak last wipe but it’s where it was supposed to be last wipe it got way overpriced
goddamn shus dropped in pricing, i was selling it for like 60k yesterday 
how to add optics to m4a1 without front sight in the way
take off the front sight?
it glows red
btw can someone explain scav karma?
The front sight is a gasblock you need to replace with the low gasblock
Low profile gasblock
i have the 306 key, pretty sure
dont shoot other scavs, shoot pmcs
thats about it
what if i do shoot other scavs
Would you wanna run in with me? Or if you're done with it I can pay you market price for it at spawn doesn't matter. I'm only lvl 19 so I can't buy it yet (trying to hit 20)
you lose karma
and then what
are you decent at pvp?
and then if it gets low enough your scavs gets worse gear, longer cd, and npc scavs will aggro on you
I'm only asking cause I want to run factory to drop off my dumb delivery from the past, so you could help me wit that in return lol
not really lol
ok good to know thanks
3.72 k/d
better than what i have
biggest problem is i only know customs and somewhat know woods
ight
The recoil is gonna suck
Having trouble with keybinds in this game, i have a mouse with number keys on side, I want to be able to hold aim down and then lean left and right holding mouse 2 and 1 and mouse 2 and 2, when i do it it doesn't work right it only lets me lean not ads
Anyone have a spark-plug for trade?
anyone know good toothpaste spawns ?
bad server or he had armor
my friends are telling me it's cause I had the scope at zeroed at 100
How close are you to that barricade?
ive been looking at medical crates but no luck
I had bt
Height over bore could have caused it to hit the wall in front of you
but the bullet should drop right?
could be a ricochet
height over bore would've dragged it into the middle of the gap
don't think that's it
Bullets come out of the barrel not the sight. If you’re too close to a piece of cover that your sight can see over but your barrel can’t shoot over you’ll end up shooting into the cover in front of you
for those that need help with gunsmith 4, besides the carrying handle, scope and mag, the rest you can get from a raider in reserve
why?
He was above you
I was on his head and the scope is zeroed at 100
you fire a bit after this frame
bullet drop?
definitely a cause
im new anyone trying to play a bit and help me out?
What was your durability?
idk this the first time I use the gun
got it off killa
should have been over 80 easily
Any point inrunning labs if I don't havekeys?
holy shit I didn't know it could be that bad
raiders
Plenty of reasons. Tons of crazy loot in labs
Even without keys? @turbid pilot
Yeah
raiders are the loot....
Like 3 ledx spawn not behind keys
i make 1 mil + per raid with raider loot...
There’s virtex and RFD readers in the technical area
that is if i survive
Like 4 different kappa items
And if you have a little money sp- yeah manager key
raiders loot are the big thing
last wipe i ran half wipe with only a black and manager and weap testing
@cerulean spruce
still get consistent 1.2 mil+ per raid
can anyone clarify where this key is?
its not the one for bad rep cause thats bunkhouse key
but is it worth anything or just vendor it to therapist?
does anyone know where CAR BATTERIES spawn? My friends told me a few places but ive been looking every day since the wipe and havent found a single 1
Back of oli mainly
like back of the store or like the far back rooms
can i mod the adar in any way with traders level 1
Not just the back of the store, all the shelves basically
yeap, low profile gas tube from peacekeeper, depending on what youre going sights either get from peacekeeper or if you want a scope get from jaeger, and for a handguard get from skier and the barter from mechanic and get a grip from one of the traders that i forgot
thanks!
would anybody be able to do some runs with me? one of my friends is getting tarkov and i want to be a decent teammate by the time he starts playing
fair warning - im a squeaker
is any of this stuff rare? like should i go extract now?
not alot of its rare but itll fetch you some solid rubles
Yeah, i just wish you could use the weapons modder/customization before lvl 20
You can?
No way
workbench lmao
any sight i can use on m4 at lvl 1?
Oh i dont have work bench yet
alright
i can use the mrs as is right?
303 is a quest key
also you need one fir pilgrim for a quest
just got this out of playing on reserve , first match as a pmc , only joined the raid with an adar
where can I get the toothpaste for the lavator
do any of the locations that are 100+ minutes in raid time open up later into the game, or are those planned locations?
that arent out yet
hi its my first time ever playing this can someone teach me
Streets is coming next year but town and suburbs are dlc maps
if they were to bring out a location every wipe it would still take like 3 years but
they only do expansions
is there a batter way ti find which magazine fits with my gun when i am trading
linked search when you right click the gun
thx
Literally bringing out the final two maps for the game in like the next 8 months
anyone down to run with me ? need some key rooms for quests
Yes. Very expensive key
how rare a labs key spawning in your scav loadout?
this a cheater right duded one taped me through a wall
Depends on you scav karma but pretty rare
someone please help my w the dorms water room
Does the EOD version of this game get cheaper wih every version you buy?
I believe you can continue to upgrade to it, so yes
should i be sniping shturman and his goons or should i go around run and gun style
o
It’s just a matter of getting close enough without him seeing you
I’d he spots you before you can get to him youre in trouble
Sneaki Breeki
oh ok. i need 9x39 ammo too btw. where can i get some
You pay the difference

can anyone help me with pharmacist task i need the key im eu but can try NA servers
i was gonna get out but bogdan the god sniped my stomach with buck from 100m away
no
aight
its like melee
mkmk
also is woods plan map any good?
nah may aswel put one on your second monitor or phone the in game one is trash
ah so its just a copy of the map, thanks
can anyone help me with pharmacist task i need the key im eu but can try NA servers
i wish this made it easier to find extracts
it does by a lot if u have a map open next to it
do the bosses spawn in every raid? And if they do spawn is it always at the beginning or can they show up half way thru?
no
bosses are chances
you can see the percentage on the wiki
also they spawn the same time as pmc spawns
if you check the spawns 2 minutes in hes not there
he didn't spawn
and will not spawn for that raid
oh cool, thank you
pretty sure all that ammo is dogshit besides pp
the RIP was ok
just started a scav run got this, is it worth extracting right away?
no, but best med pack other than grizzly
still makes me feel like im unzipping my pants
make them fear the micrometer peter
anyone trying to do farming part 3?
/delivery from the past, I have the key and am looking to go there
anyone trying to run woods
Is the red keycard spawn in resort the best chance for red keycard?
it’s also at 164 hp so it can’t stop heavy bleeds taking away an important part of it but you can use it to replace bandages if you want
pretty sure they're all tiny percentage
.
Whats the best bullet for\ lvl 1 traders?
depends which caliber
545x39?
i dont even have jaeger unlocked lmao
just started a couple of days ago right after wipe
yeah thank you
scav bosses have more hp, so you want to use "bad" ammunition for them
yo, how much do green labs cards go for? 0 on the market and just wanna know its worth. cheers 🙂
you can look it up online through various websites
depends when in the wipe, I've seen them generally around 7mil
what would you say for right now? would the price increase the further into the wipe or earlier?
have a gander
says 146k and that doesn't seem right
it might just be cause its early wipe
and prices are fucked
so just keep it on you or use it
yeah early wipe it goes for less
i think all card spawns were hiked as well, so i don’t imagine we are ever going to see them as high as they were
oh that sucks
found a wallet on a scav so thats pretty neat
why is the vulkan 5 160k
i have one but idk if i should sell or keep
speaking of helmets
do helmet armor classes matter?
granted I think helmets are useless
just like body armor can?
well if they have high ric isnt it good
or at least alright
same with face shield
high ricochet means big area that can bounce a bullet
each bullet has its own ricochet chance
what is rmed
ahh gotcha
so low tier bullets high high ric and vice versa right
have high*
so like if the bullet hits the ricochet area, it has a chance
not really
more depends on the shape of the bullet
could anyone give me tips to get xp? i have 106 hours this wipe and have done 10 quests and am still only level 14
kill scabs
afaik there's no velocity coefficient involved in it
with hs
how
ez wu
where
feelin like a scav and cute might delete later
idrk personally
they are at
i just know they are on the map
and i kill them as i go
so should i keep or sell this class 6 helmet
ok i guess ill just do factory cuz there is a lot of scavs there
sell 100%
yup
How do i check my hours in game?
overall
Is it online?
yuh
is that all raids or just this new one?
i think just new wipe
when did it wipe because i saw someone with 2.2k hours?
I died fully kitted out to a Timmy because my gun jammed and I was in a hallway and re peeked not knowing it was jammed
Literally the easiest kill of my life
And he was a ttv, went onto his stream and he said “shit on”
How do you get cash from traders? Everytime I sell something I get nothing...
😭
wtf LMFAO
😳
tarkoved in game and irl
Ok
hey guys what is better to start out with bear or usec
Yo guys so you there is this 1$ game called tarkov
So uh ya is there anyway to avoid a million cheaters in every single match
prapor watch needs dorm?
So you cant just buy items from the traders you have to barter?
and they only barter for a specific set of items for each thing?
to get the machinery key which is a guaranteed spawn in a brown jacket in dorms
oh for the key
Can I complete it on a scav run?
yes
NO
okay less scary
tasks cannot be done as a scav
the key yes. the pocket watch no
ill just grab the key
just the key bro. Def yes
NO
hm?
NO
MR PACA PACA
you dare bring PACA into this?!
take down back pack. sell, use, or storage?
imo sell that bitch
does anyone have a updated reserve map? dont see d2 on any of these
Do you have to be a certain level to sell items to traders for cash or?
nop
ah I see how do I get Euros or Dollars?
oh, it is skier. shit lol
https://gyazo.com/b5dad18619bc6f160830645ccfe97cfe use or sell? (tight on space and im saving for scav box)
ok
get your scav junkbox and throw all your stuff in there
you'll eventually catch on as you play the game more
ok thank you
jesus why is KEKDuck Tape so valuable?
sorry lol, and I highly recommend airwingmarine on youtube for fleamarket/ hideout stuff
just a fyi
thats what im wondering
love him sm
so useful
thank you, any good video you suggest?
like your favorite three that help a lot
uhhh, just look at his recent ones to see if you like the guy
there's loads of content creators for EFT now, everyone has different info since everyone has different playstyles
he gets to the point quickly so i like that
60 mag craft, hideout, quest, lab card kek is quite useful @humble plaza
aka the kektape wiki page
whats the quickest way to make money
you could do stash runs
I found that its a good way to make a lot of cash
got to 1 mil plus in a day from doing that
well not a day but like a few hours
what are stash runs?
think he means caches
I heard reserve and shoreline has a good amount of them
if you have a nvidia gpu, disable vsync in gpu settings, and enable vsync in game.
dont ask. it just does
ok in the control panel right
yeah
alright thanks
are the caches the metal thing on the ground?
is it worth using nvidia reflex in tarkov
I have a 1070
what cpu do you have?
it might milk your 1070 too hard
ah damn
but it sounds good, go for it and watch your fps. if it doesnt help. turn it off
np mate
looking for 3 more geared players to grind the marked room in dorms, i have they key. this is my first wipe im level 20. 19yo NA. HAVE ATLEAST CLASS 3 OR 4 GEAR. i keep everything until i break even then we split the profits. im on for 3 or 4 hours. DM me
Hello, is this the beginner assistance that someone from the Tarkov official forums recommended me to post my questions on? can we ask a bit of anything here?
yea
Cool, thanks! I ll compile some questions.
Anyone have the customs office key or any other keys that u need for the beginning tasks? I'm stuck on progession cuz all I have to do are key locked tasks.
loot jackets, kill scavs and loot their bags/ pockets for keys
if an item gets dropped by your friend and you extract with it, does that item count as “Found In Raid”?
alot of keys for quests are static spawns as well, ie. mechanic key for golden pocket watch
did your friend have it before the raid?
if so, no
ah ok then thanks
has to be found during that raid
FIR back into raid = not FIR
a l r
Simple terms, If you or any players bring something into the raid, it is no longer found in raid
go to woods and theres a black truck at USEC camp. spawns M4s all the time in the driver seat
alright will do. Thanks
Alright thanks I'll keep trying to find them. I did the new therapist barter for the customs office key and I was trying to sort my inventory and accidentally dropped it and it glitched through the floor lmao
sorry to hear that. but it does happen to the best of us.
did you guys see the glitch in customs marked room
i saw a vid where some guy got capped right through the floor as soon as he walked in
yeah, it's terrible
?
havent seen it yet
i saw it on youtube shorts
Either its a cheat or a glitch but people said it was a glitch
ah i remember now
i saw someone who did that and yoinked my marked loot
that was early into the wipe for me too
it's a glitch
hey, anyone has any idea of what could be wrong about this one for gunsmith part 16? cant seem to make it work no matter how i build it
bakeezy did a video for this task this wipe so check that out, other than that I have no clue lmao
show stats
we cant help otherwise
dont need the grip, and that's the wrong stock
ive tried without the grip and another stock and couldnt make it work
which one did you put in?
use the M7A1 PDW stock
ith NT4 FDE silencer, rifle length MK 10 handguard, thermal scope REAP-IR, and a 60-round magazine. Ergonomics should be not less than 44, the recoil sum less than 230, and the weight of 5 kg or less.
thats odd it looks like it has everything
i did , but when you do , with the new stats , its doesnt work cause they nerfed recoil with that build
restart game?
was thinking that it might weight too much, why I recommended the stock
lemme check if i saved my build
wiki says under 5 dunno if its changed
true
this is the build you talk about and that one does not work
too high recoils when put together which is why i tried switching the stock but that doesnt work either
yeah, sum less than 230. that might be it
yeah but the thing is you cant go under 230 with that build if you dont change the stock
doesnt work either
fuck
tried already :/
lol
ah i found my build gimme a sec
WAIT NVM
i think i get it
NT4 FDE silencer
specific color
for silencer
you got the wrong color
try it
recoil was prob too high on past build
HAHAHA
i feel smoothbrain and big brain at the same time
same
i just feel bad wasting 2 hours on something i had already in my bag
I was looking at his build like some damn surgeon
anyone have the link to the updated ammo charts
i remembered because i kept fucking around for 16 trying to make it cheaper
the best part of part16 is that I always sell that shit back on the flea
make your $$$ back
i keep the reap
i always die once or twice on test drive

im gonna sell that shit for sure
I dont use thermals or the AR platform, so it's w/e to me
tx is a fun gun to use
556 mdr too since modding on it is quick so its easy for me to build a bunch and keep dying with it if i have a bad day
ever since they added the flea, I've always just sold all my AR stuff, ammo included
let other people fight over it while I laugh in roubles
all the kids and their egro/ recoil "meta" builds. giving me money to kill them with 7.62 Ilgolnik
ive mostly used aks this wipe
the m4 fully moded looks damn good tho
mpx is sick
mpx is nice if you have good ammo yeah
I like the MP5, mpx, AKs, and SR-25/ M1A
i mean if you like smg's you might aswell play with p90 and vector then
dunno about vector jamming tho this patch
MDR 7.62x51 is a beast as well
i have 1000 rounds of ap prob wasnt worth it to craft that much
p90 is great but I dont like the price on S190
but im starting to craft 7n so it should be fun
7n31?
yeah and pk ss190 = about 43 roubles a bull unless my math is wrong
wait
math is wrong
LUL
ah, it's not terrible yet
I'd say save them til next couple months. you'll be able to get each round for 1100
it was only 3-4 raids
my inventory is fucked now
go in live dump shit go back in raid
does stuff crafted count as fir
yes
yes
amen
can someone help me with the introduction and search mission quests on woods i can't find them
got no clue whee to go
Check the wiki
Its what i use 99% of the time
Except gunsmith 4, that one was dumb luck and an execption
are these rare?
thanks
i think 110 might have some containers, ill check for you
yeah keep 110, it has a vault flash drive spawn and some jackets which you can loot for keys
should I get a lucky scav junk box? apparently I have found 55 barter goods but my stash is full
I'm trying to think about how I got 1.1mil in like 5 days
so i could repeat that
because I don't remember
if you sell condensed milk, streamer items and do quests
you'll get it in no time
sell all of those items to therapist
I know
anyone got a gunsmith pt 4 build they can show me
how do i find mp-133 no scav have it
yea
they dont actually need to be found in raid
u can buy them from one of the traders
@bronze narwhal is this fine?
ye thanks
There’s another way
Seems no matter what headset I use in game, I can never hear anyone. They always know exactly where I am from I'm assuming, my sound even though I crab walk everywhere since I'm scared shitless lol. How do I fix this bros?
@bronze narwhal that build he posted no longer works
this is the one i just turned in without using deadly's guide
@loud parcelthe new recoil must be under 250 sum
thanks boss
The one deadly posted is almost 500-700k. I managed to get about half that with just combing the flea market, but deadly posted the video on it so everyone is doing it
should i sell kektape ?
Depends, how much have you done to your hideout?
search it up on the wiki see what it can be traded for, upgrades, and crafting, and if you dont need it sell it
And they are useful for some different crafting as well, it’s not worth to sell it honestly
If you’re hurting for money sell it, but honestly it’s not worth a lot
anyone wanna get money together
Yo guys what's the best way and best map for xp
Take a look at tarkov market. It will show what it’s worth abd what you can do with it @keen mason
run reserve or somthing
Questing for XP @keen sundial
do you have 114 key?
only 6$
Anything better?
No it’s a separate website that shows all the information @keen mason
The best way is kills and surviving, your best chances are customs or reserve if you know the map
And also I kill like 2 PMC and 5 scavs in custom raids and I only get 5k xp
That sounds about right
Is that really normal
Yes
i idea i had in mind
Bruh
Good idea
oh btw idk if the guy is still in here but pistol case does take rifle ammo
Farm scavs on factory. But you need a group and expect not to get all the kills so whatever xp divided
who should i turn the quest in for? therapist or skier?
depends on who you did the quest for
you need to go into the trading section and then click on the person and at the top right itll say task, self explanitory from there
guides on youtube are always helpful for me
No flame that’s not what he’s asking
oh mb
Basically whoever you can take the hit from, whether it be the negative for skier and therapist. I know a lot of people choose skier
@loud parcel yea it’s really screwy, and since deadly put out a video on the new meta one for it everything sky rocketed so I just did that one
ah yeah i see
that wasnt what i was asking abt, theres a quest you can decide who you want to turn in for
the other will lose rep
supply plans its called
oh sorry
no worries, i worded it weirdly
i found a Markov with t in parenthesis, does this mean anything?
im fucking done
theres a special place in hell for people who extract camp on customs during night raids when mfs are JUST TRYING TO DO A FUCKING QUEST
i find it so funny that you can barter a beta case
it’s worth too it’s like 2 mil to buy the shit off flea
dem
unluki
What about reserve
how do i get cases and stuff pre level 20? do i have to find people willing to sell them?
what cases?
was thinking a med case, or doc case depending on price but we cannot trade here, its banned.
im level 8 and i have one lucky scav and one ammo
@split dewdo the therepist quests and get to level 2 with her
mostly traders
ive been trying to get an ammo crate for a while
marked room
she has med case for a lot of stuff but she also has pistol case.
or quest
dont have marked room keys
how tf
do you have an ammo crate
i cant get therapist level 2 for 5 levels. That wont help me
i got my lucky scav at level 6 then got another level 15 and a medcase
ammo case traded thermite and gunpowder to mechanic
yeah but howd you get that stuff is what i meant
well green gunpowder looted from environment
and yeah stashes
only need 2
but i have so many fkin meds

haven’t found a single thermite and only one eagle
where do i see that?
character tab
total cost
common stats
what. the fuck
get ya money up not ya funny up
skrr
im at like
peep the porg
my stash was 41 mil last wipe
80+ pcs looted/found and have yet to find another flash drive
im going to lose my mind
pog
feel that
pog porg
in three wipes twisted, i have found a single flash drive
this is my first wipe
ah
found 4 in shturmans shit box
whats the price of a doc case?
like.. how tf do people complete this ever
should i get doc case or ketool?
find em

if you have alot of keys yes
i mean which should i get
keytool holds just keys
i got a fully kitted hk from a scav run 
docs holds money, info items and keys
is it worth the extra cost?
shit like docs cases and flash drives
you can just quest and get one
therapist offers one if im correct
somebody does
pretty early too
how do i do the water quest for theripist
search filing cabinets. Lot and lots of filing cabinets
i have searched everything
@cunning shadow I found three in one raid in third floor office
factory?
Yes
i dont normally run that map except for my scav runs
you need key 206 and open the room and walk in
assuming you mean aquarious pt1, you need the 206 key. You just enter the room and thats it.
its on the 2nd floor of dorms
2nd story
thx bro
it took me a while to find mine
i dont suppose anyone has an extra keybar sitting around?
keybar?
keytool
keytool
oh
just get a docs case
ive been trying to get one myself :p
its not difficult
no
if you give it to skier
you lose 0.04 rep
skier gives 180k but less xp
therapist gives some money but not as much xp
so arme, what do i do to get the docs case? if it ez?
do quests
oh yeah, easy just snap my fingers all done ofc

Does anyone have a keytool they could part with? Its not against the rules if its not technically a trade.
id be deeply grateful
indebted even.

Oh but you said it was easy.

Hey guys, admin or mod around here? I have a lot of questions to ask, but I fear it is gonna end up as a huge block of text... what do you guys recommend to do?
!sherpa hub
post your block of text
Er, ok but I have been told on the forum to ask my questions here?
Ok, at worse I will truncate them in sections, and ask with a bit of time between each.
alright
Oh, interesting. Should I?
it might not allow you to lol
Yeah maybe. Ok lets go then
Hey guys, new to tarkov, 100 hours "already" (nothing compared to real players) and yet barely a couple of PMC kills, so, yeah, pretty noob here. I often have some questionning in front of my pc, so I would love it if knowledgeable people can give me some clues to feed on. My questions are below in no particular order. Cheers!
- If you think some/many of my questions can be answered by reading a guide, can you direct me to it? I have found that guide like Rainlyte big PDF was SUPER useful, but still not in depth enough. If you know one...
- about SCAVs:
- I NEVER get the difference between a SCAV and a PMC at least not if only take a few seconds with my finger ready to left click..., and so when I raid as a SCAV, I either keep on hurting people and hurting my Karma, OR most of the time I get shot by other players SCAV... As of now, my only scav runs that I survive are the ones where I see no one, OR I just run away when I do... Any advice? do I need 500 hours of play to integrate the characters skins?
- I know I can "get positive karma by killing hostile SCAV players"... but... same here, how the hell do I know that? is there any in game data to let you know this?
- about weapons:
- I asked that question several times on reddit and such, but never found a real satisfying answer: do you guys know any website, or pdf guide, very well done, yet popularizing for noobs, about weapons in Tarkov and the basics of mods? I am not talking about "this is a good mod" or "S is better than N" but more A weapon is this and this, and you need A and B to make it work, some have mods like A or B... Just in order to understand what are ALL these little guns add ons I find in the game without having a clue what this is? Muzzle, barrel, whatever. The basics of weapons, but for Tarkov.
- I am at a loss regarding AK, I keep finding new ones... AK, 74, N, S, M, U... this is so confusing. I never got to find a clear guide about that, so for now I just keep Eroktic tier list opened as to have a (subjective) idea of which one to keep... please?
- please have a look at my Saiga here https://ibb.co/VgC3GQN and tell me why I am confused: I found the mod on the right, the Zenit scope, but it says I can't put it with the SOK-12, so I removed it, and then I can only put it instead of the OKP-7. So I do it, but then the weapon becomes red, so I can't use it... and then there is this other problem of understanding what the hell is that SOK-12, because there is like 3 stuff attached to it, and yet when I try to practice the gun offline, with right-click, I only get to see through the OKP-7, I have no idea what the SOK-12 multiple addons are for, and if I ctrl+right-click it only does CLICK CLICK without changing anything...
- Still for that Saiga, it had a "SOK-12 Leapers UTG PRO MTU002 Short Top aluminum handguard" on it where I added stuff, but today I found a "SOK-12 Leapers UTG PRO MTU002 Long Top aluminum handguard". The only difference seems to be... the weight, maybe? How do I understand the difference here, is there a "just a skin thing" kind of difference sometimes?
- about raids:
- My go to rather than buying is do a few SCAV runs, get loot, then play a few PMC raids with this gear until I lose everything (pretty fast haha), and repeat. Does that make sense?
- Linked to question 5, by doing that, gear like armor deteriorates after time: when it becomes low, should I trash it and get new ones with loot runs, or repair it? what's the most efficient strat here?
- On the maps screen, Customs has 8-12, does it mean I will definitely be thrown in the map with 7 to 11 other real players? so it can be less than 12, but we can not know the exact number, correct? does it include Scav? and can Scav appear several times throughout the game? How does this work? and what about the time, is that an estimate? is there a website that says exactly when the SCAVs spawn, so that I know I have to hurry as a PMC?
- Right now what I am really working on is A) my current quest and B) building a shooting range because I want to try and feel every weapon I find without having to load an offline game. Is there anything else I could do beside what I am doing right now, which is A) Customs raids to get the Director key until I find it and B) Customs raids to get 14 lightbulbs because I need to upgrade the lights before my shooting range. Is that how everybody does it?
And that is about it 🙂 sorry for the length... I just love the game right now 😅
About scavs, determining the difference between pmc's can be pretty simple because generally pmc's will be aggro if you are playing as a player scav while the new scav karma update most of the time player scavs are generally friendly towards you. You also said that you can gain karma for killing scavs and pmcs that have shot other player scavs which is true but its basically pointless as it gives no rep what so ever, you can tell when you lost or gain rep at the bottom right of your screen when you kill a player scav/pmc
your better off taking the car extracts as pmc as they give you 0.25 rep and split every time you take them.
I know there is several useful pdf's on the tarkov wiki, but if you need more there is guides online on reddit which can be primarily useful, there is also youtubers like pestily who are great and helpful content creators for new players
Best way to get cowboy hats and russian hats for Dressed to kill?
@light lance im confused on what your question is on the mods for saiga
the pso is huge so it wont work with the soc handguard small or large
plus its a sniper scope
difference between short and long top is that the sight would be seated farther back
The difference between most ak's is that generally the letter stands for something, like for example the ak-74N, the N means you are allowed to put night optics on
the attachments on the soc are flashlight and a flashlight laser combo
t to turn it on
ctrl t to switch laser/flashlight modes
Hey there, I've been trying to scav on reserve bunker for the drawers full of gas analysers and flash drives. however, I always meet raiders after about 2 min, who patrol the place and inevitably find me. this time I domed one after he shot and missed me. I didnt get any rep deduction. Am I free to kill these mfers?
you can kill them
as a scav
just make sure it isnt a gluk guard
generally when an armor is below thirty that is most likely when you should stop using it as it can probably take one or two more shots depending on the caliber/armor
sweet thanks. I never found gluckar in the bunker, so I guess I can go ham
go ham get that loot
you can find the directors key fairly easily by searching through filing cabinets, if your in need for one I will be on tomorrow and would be willing to give you one.
As with lightbulbs, your better off looting toolboxex
boxes*
@light lance anything else?
also, another question. has the rep gain been reduced? I feel like I did 3-4 prapor quests but I only have 0.08 standing with him.
you can lose rep by doing missions for others
did you do chem 4?
but i hope I could help you
i hate this stupid flea market level 20 BS.
i know why they did it
but i have things i need to buy
Which things do you "need" to buy?
key tool, med box
👍👍👍
You're gonna do fine without that. It just makes the life easier lol
another ammo box would be good
Yeah... But you don't NEED it. It makes the life easier 😄
i dont NEED to eat either just makes life longer
no, I didnt get to it yet. Just did delivery from the past. the quests I did for prapor was Debut, BP Depot, Delivery from the Past.... and thats it I think
Can't compare in any way lol. You NEED food to survive. You don't NEED a keytool to carry keys.
you dont need to carry keys
now Im pulling my hairs trying to find the bunk house key in factory
True. Why would you carry a keytool then?
The point im making wizard is your distinction is pointless
you dont need to play tarkov
but here we are
I want to play tarkov, everybody playing tarkov probably wants to.
You're saying that you NEED a med case, but in fact you just don't want to play tetriz in your stash 😄
i dont NEED to hit this bowl, but i am going to
@tranquil shore you dont NEED to bring guns into the raid but the fact is you just dont want to have to melee everyone to death
True. But since you can get guns, it's stupid to go with a hatchet?
