calm marsh
#

I'm very stupid. Is this a PMC or scav?

tulip whale
#

Scav, more specifically it looks like one of gluhars guards

calm marsh
#

Thought it might, but then it was weird it wasn't aggroing

#

And appears to be bugged standing in a corner

#

Anyway, thanks.

#

if im using BT ammo should I aim for head or chest on killa?

candid tundra
# calm marsh

if you want to tell just lean left and right fast aka wiggle and they will wiggle back if there scavs

bold kernel
#

is it better to keep the valuables needed to craft the scav box,
or just sell them

paper gull
#

low level and new, I want to run a pistol with a flash light, relatively cheap. What recommendations and what ammo? just to cheap out on PMC runs

rough scarab
#

Killing glukhar guards tank scav rep, don't they?

welp, just misread a situation. Saw someone kill someone else, so I shot, and they were a friendly apparently.

RIP fence rep

#

maybe he killed a not friendly/bad scav? therefore making him a saviour that you executed. shameeeee @calm marsh

final frigate
#

This game still crashes a fuckton on a 3k pc

#

What a bunch of shit

calm marsh
#

I'm sure that's what happened, but it's really frustrating to lose all that rep to what's effectively a misunderstanding

#

I get it on one hand, but still oof.

whats best map to scav for toothpaste on?

unreal lion
#

# cosmic iron anyone willing to teach a semi newbie?

honestly man the best way to learn the game is by playing solo. itll be boring as fuck but holding someones hand the whole time isnt an efficient way to learn, itll be boring but you just gotta keep slamming your head against the wall youll get it eventually

There was an ammo update?

i like that the durability burn is shown when you inspect, because it’s a good way to guess how good ammo is if you aren’t familiar with the rounds

Is my toolkit being used (wasted) when I try to repair a control panel in factory when the timer is counting and I get killed?

tulip whale
# paper gull anyway to raise it? I repaired it

You cannot repair it past the red bar, its like armor in the sense that you will always loose some max durability each time you repair it and scav weapons already have a low max durability

#

how does anyone play woods

#

its so hard to see anyone

hollow minnow
#

Dont go in the woods

#

Lmao

exotic ruin
#

i always see people with snipers or marksman rifles with long range scopes

#

def not close range LOL

hollow minnow
#

You can close range woods

#

Just stay lumber

tulip whale
#

Woods is a new player trap, you will die to someone you dont see or hear and will have no clue what just happened half the time you die. once you play it more you will start to learn where people are likely to be and get used to the environment more, making it easier to spot things that stand out like human beings

hollow minnow
#

Use the woods as cover and flank

exotic ruin
#

Hm i see how I'm wrong LOL

#

seems harder and easier though

hollow minnow
#

Yall should've seen old woods

#

Pvp paradise

tulip whale
#

Yeha it was great

#

pretty much everyone went to lumber and you got a lot of fun fights

hollow minnow
#

Now its just a confusing death trap for new players like you said

tulip whale
#

yeah

hollow minnow
#

They spawn you in front of minefields sometimes kek

unreal lion
#

but hes the only one that buys low durability weapons

tulip whale
#

It used to be difficult to navigate now its a lot harder, you need to have a map open and use landmarks to figure out where you are and where you need to go. Plus you get a lot of people not see the mine or sniper warnings and die to those

how do i know what to keep in my stash

paper gull
tulip whale
#

Anything you are going to need FIR for a task or going to use soon either in raid or hideout keep, anything else sell

bold kernel
#

any tips on leveling also?

paper gull
#

you can open the wiki from it to see when you need it for hideout, if its a close upgrade keep, otherwise I sell. If the price diff between traders and flee is too big I keep

#

If you go as PMC, waiting till 15 mins before raid ends you find Lots of Scav. Kill them

bold kernel
#

do i just hide?

paper gull
#

nah loot slowly, learn map

#

Seek out gun fire, best way to learn I find

tulip whale
#

If you are looking to get the most xp out of your raids play very slow, carefully loot each part of the map and rotate around scav areas for scav kills.

#

Scavs usually spawn in a few waves every 10-15 minutes on most maps

#

So the longer you spend in raid the more of those scav waves you can kill

bold kernel
#

what if player scavs one tap my poor ass

tulip whale
#

But honestly i wouldnt focus all that much on trying to max XP out of a raid, i would just focus on having fun and tasking

paper gull
#

btw for weapons SKS is cheap (20k) and very effective.

Keep items you are going to need FIR for tasks and want to keep for hideout, i would sell just about anything else

take everything with you and figure out along the way whats expensive and whats not

like a gold chain is more expensive than soap

syringes are commonly found in med spawns, there are a few on reserve that are easily lootable

#

spark plugs are commonly found inside toolboxes, dufflebags, loot caches, and "junk" boxes

whats the best map for sniping

buoyant crane
bold kernel
#

hmm okay ty, i cant find any salewas either so lmao. just trying to get hideout good to make them

buoyant crane
#

the reserve med spawns are the best to find them

#

if you want I can show you on a map?

bold kernel
#

yeah just had bad rng, gonna keep looking and start crafting them when i can

#

uhh sure

#

that would help

#

only thing that sucks is reserve is probably the hardest map on my pc idk why

#

new pc comes 23rd so game will run better

buoyant crane
#

the building I circled in yellow has many, many med spawns

bold kernel
#

but current pc is not built for tarkov

buoyant crane
#

that is where I find my salewas/syringes/other meds

bold kernel
#

alright ill check it out

#

is it a hot zone i primarly play customs so idk

buoyant crane
#

all of reserve is a hot zone

bold kernel
#

yeah fair point

buoyant crane
#

the trick is to go where you do not hear people

#

and to move when you do hear people if you do not want to fight

#

as in, if you hear movement, just go somewhere else. most people do not actively follow

tiny stag
#

hey guys what's a good pistol for the stirrup quest? I'm lvl 15 so don't have flea access otherwise would use 5-7

buoyant crane
#

only reason I say isnt the MP443 is because it has a low fire rate cap that can mess you up

tiny stag
#

ahh okay cool, thank you!

buoyant crane
#

that said most of your kills will come from accuracy not volume

#

so the MP443 still isnt a bad option

#

generally this means M9A3, MP443, or P226

#

Don't use the TT/Tokarev or PMM/Makarov unless you have good very good aim

Do different maps give you better loot?

diff tables iirc, like reserve gives guns and gun parts more

ofc labs gives the best

@unreal horizon the factory plant quest still bugged where you can keep the docs case in stash?

bold kernel
#

im in the same boat spirit

whole marsh
#

niiice

buoyant crane
#

its not necessarily that different maps give you better or worse loot, just that each map has different locations inside it that may have different loot

whole marsh
#

lets gooo

buoyant crane
#

@whole marsh@bold kernelim not busy if you want me to answer any of your questions

whole marsh
#

yes pls :3

buoyant crane
#

just ask them here and I will answer as I'm able

whole marsh
#

how do i start? Like what is the premise and what is my goal

buoyant crane
#

weird question to ask, did you look up anything on the game beforehand? lol

This game is pretty open-ended with the only objective "goals" being to do all your tasks/obtain wealth/etc but for most people they just want to survive and keep progressing their account

bold kernel
#

so im extremely new, around 10 hours in and got it yesterday. I have a full stash of guns, ammo and gear. I feel like ive got nothing that helps me progress in the game. and quests i just end up getting a kill and then forget the quest and just run around and loot

buoyant crane
#

don't get distracted during the raid and run off

whole marsh
bold kernel
#

im on the first one, kill scavs and get shotguns

buoyant crane
whole marsh
#

i just got my paycheck so i had cash to spend yknow?

buoyant crane
bold kernel
#

yeah

buoyant crane
#

for those you'll just have to explore until they're found

#

in the meantime, you should be trying to get the salewa kits actively to progress Therapist

bold kernel
#

yeah just need onemore

#

is there a map that gives more of that than another

buoyant crane
#

maps do not have set loot pools, see my above comment

whole marsh
buoyant crane
#

you have many options for acquiring medical supplies

#

my favorite is to play Reserve

#

and to go to this building:

rich rose
#

So how do you get higher tier weapons and loot? All I seem to be able to get are ak’s

bold kernel
#

Customs is pretty much the only map i know, and i played factory like twice

ruby dagger
#

any suggestions on figuring out where the heck you are on Woods

buoyant crane
#

@bold kernel

bold kernel
#

oh and woods i played a bit

ruby dagger
#

I can't get the introduction question done cause I can never figure out where the heck I am

#

even with a map

buoyant crane
#

such as the Salewas you need, but also other stuff you'll need in the future like Syringes

bold kernel
#

@ruby dagger google the map and go off roads or the lakes

buoyant crane
#

sorry meant to reply to @bold kernel

buoyant crane
#
  1. Buy weapons from your traders, and acquire higher ranks in your traders to get a wider variety (of increasing value) to purchase
#
  1. Loot specific maps, in specific areas, that have high chances to spawn weapons
bold kernel
#

one big lake at the bottom of the map near mills, and the little lakes at the top with the bridge

buoyant crane
#
  1. Kill boss scavs and/or Raiders
#

etc

buoyant crane
#

but experience will help more than anything

ruby dagger
#

I'll keep trying, but I really don't like woods

#

lol

buoyant crane
#

Why not?

ruby dagger
#

just hard to find my location, and so little cover

buoyant crane
#

cover is everywhere

#

you just have to know how to move

ruby dagger
#

I really like reserve and interchange

buoyant crane
#

the map is either very easy to move around or very hard depending on your mindset

#

theres a flow to it

whole marsh
#

answer other questions after this so you dont get overwhelmed, but what is a good map to start on?

unreal lion
#

what are the best jacket runs

bold kernel
#

any tips for factory? i want to get the keys and stuff like that to sell/progress

im sick of it i have like 4 quests that are locked behind keys

whole marsh

#

ah

Do scavs in different maps carry different guns? I’ve only played customs and it seems like they only have shotguns and ak’s

buoyant crane
buoyant crane
rich rose
#

Ok

buoyant crane
#

scav bosses carry higher end gear

#

as do Raiders which are the highest tier of scav

whole marsh
#

do i have to select a task in order to complete it or just do what they ask of me?

unreal lion
#

you have to accept it

buoyant crane
#

it has to be selected first

whole marsh
#

alright

unreal lion
#

you can have as many tasks as you like, you will gain completion towards it as long as you have accepted it before

buoyant crane
whole marsh
#

ooo cool

#

alright

#

off to go kill scavs and take shotguns?

bold kernel
#

any tips for factory, want the filing cabnets

buoyant crane
unreal lion
#

theres better places for jackets and filing cabinets

buoyant crane
#

factory is generally a "Noob trap"

unreal lion
#

factory is basically just pvp and a safe lol

buoyant crane
#

lots of people are attracted there because of the small map size

#

thinking it'll be easy to learn

#

in reality the map is basically meant for PvP and is highly punishing

bold kernel
#

fair

#

whats the best maps for it then?

buoyant crane
#

Reserve is very good

#

has a massive amount of jackets/file cabinets

bold kernel
#

any tips for it?

buoyant crane
#

Reserve has the hardest extracts to use

#

if you play a PMC there you will need to learn specific steps to unlock extracts

unreal lion
#

have a map open while playing

buoyant crane
#

as there are no "free" ones that just allow you to leave no questions asked

#

every extract has a requirement or a task that must be fufilled

unreal lion
#

wait does the manhole extract have one too?

buoyant crane
#

for example, the manhole extract is freely usable at all times but you cannot bring a backpack. No exceptions

unreal lion
#

ahh

buoyant crane
#

the D2 extract requires the power to be turned on in the bunker

whole marsh
#

can i be a scav and kill scavs to complete a task? or do i have to play as my pmc? (who i am assuming is my main character)

buoyant crane
#

the hermatic door requires the power switch to be flipped

#

etc

unreal lion
#

you cannot get completion towards a quest as a scav

buoyant crane
#

you can acquire generic items (such as the MP133 shotguns for your first task) as a scav

#

and those will count

whole marsh
#

oh :/

#

oh! okie nice

unreal lion
#

quest only items u wont even show up though

whole marsh
#

but i have to kill them as a pmc

unreal lion
#

like the bronze pocket watch

buoyant crane
#

but anything requiring you to pickup folders/documents/quest items (like the pocket watch in prapor's 2nd quest) or to Kill X scavs will only be doable on PMcs

unreal lion
#

dont kill scavs as a scav without learning about scav karma!

buoyant crane
#

and yes dont kill scavs as a scav

unreal lion
#

#

the quick tl:dr

unreal lion
#

your reputation with the fence trader is your "scav karma"

buoyant crane
#

if you kill scavs as a scav fence there will be very unhappy with you

bold kernel
#

oh thats why hes at -.30%

#

lmao

buoyant crane
#

and in the future you will have increasingly longer timers between when you're allowed to play scav, you will get worse loadouts upon spawning in, and you will ALSO, and this is a big one, have less and less extracts available

unreal lion
#

oh i didnt know the extract one

bold kernel
#

can that go up?

unreal lion
#

also scavs will be hostile on sight towards you

buoyant crane
unreal lion
#

usually they wouldnt be

buoyant crane
#

good luck extracting with that

unreal lion
#

thats insane

buoyant crane
#

it takes a shit ton of bad deeds to get there

bold kernel
#

can you get the scav karma up again?

yes, by killing "bad" player scavs

or if you kill a pmc as a scav

ie they have more going on

unreal lion

#

those being, Reserve, Interchange, Shoreline

no specific order

though Shoreline has less than the other two if I had to say

that said, Shoreline is probably the safest if you stick to a route

Okay so I'm pretty decent at surviving and just bought a friend of mine the game. I shouldn't have any troubles besides customs spawns, because sometimes i feel boxed in because of how cluttered they are.

Usually I just directly walk to center through some obscured way

grim oak
#

I feel kinda fucked when I spawn at big red

#

Idk, any tips on where to go depending on where you spawn?

shadow fiber
#

if u have the directors key and spawn at big red do that

unreal lion
#

if u wanna avoid combat id go down to the river and across or into the trailer park and go to the river from there depending on where u spawn

#

the streets around it are usually where the fights happen because the spawns are so obvious and u run into people fast

grim oak
#

If you spawn close to it that's what I do but usually you're very exposed

#

Ruaf seems like a traffic zone but I've never encountered players there

unreal lion
#

it def is a chokepoint

grim oak
#

If there's scavs there that's good

#

Means nobody has been there or is in the proximity

Also I usually don't see scavs first, I just hear them before I see them, even when I run past them lol
