Can make most things work if you are accurate enough tho.

#

I wouldn't reccomend going Chad mode till you learn maps. Be a rat for now.

pure marsh
#

I vote the Vepr KM as the best beginner weapon, sight, grip, mags, and muzzle device

#

Or any shotgun

prime sapphire
#

Yeah you probably know better. I only use DVL so I'm a bit of a diff breed.

#

Sks is always my early wipe gun but Vepr is probably easier for a newbie.

pure marsh
#

I just like the upgradability of it tbh

#

Its not just stuck ya know?

prime sapphire
#

None of that with my DVL LMFAO

pure marsh
#

Facts. I'm more of a SV-98 kinda guy

prime sapphire
#

Tbh I just wish it shot it's real .40 whisper ammo.

fading violet
#

bolt actions are so satisfying in this game but they suck unless you are a god at aiming

prime sapphire
#

They can be really op you just have to play them properly.

fading violet
#

I mean, the semi auto DMRs shoot the same bullets and are just strictly better overall

pure marsh
#

Shift+W and quick scope

prime sapphire
#

Yeah true that.

#

MDR with a sniper scope is nuts

pure marsh
#

M1A is my favorite DMR based on style alone

#

MW2 got my heart for that platform

prime sapphire
#

Yeah m1a is ok. MDR feels like it's less recoil for it's tap firing.

#

Semi auto spam and a dream.

pure marsh
#

That's Tarkov in a nutshell. Spray and pray

prime sapphire
#

Not for me but yeah usually that's the game.

#

If one bullet doesn't kill I didnt do my job xD

pure marsh
#

I wish they'd add weapon skins. Not good ones but like you can collect spray cans and paint them yourself

prime sapphire
#

As a 6th wipe DVL otp one bullet is usually all it takes tho.

shrewd tree
#

What’s a good .366 weapon

prime sapphire
#

Yeah I agree.

pure marsh
prime sapphire
#

^

#

Super spammable great all around gun.

shrewd tree
#

The 209 right?

pure marsh
prime sapphire
#

You still do quests? I quit after the 3rd wipe.

#

Just play to hunt players now.

shrewd tree
#

Are there are .366 rifles that shoot in full auto?

prime sapphire
#

Not yet.

pure marsh
#

Sadly not yet

shrewd tree
#

Oh ok

pure marsh
#

It'd be cool tho

prime sapphire
#

Kinda op tho that 366 AP ammo is nuts

shrewd tree
#

I have 5.5 mil rn and Im still being cheap af

#

Im buying the eko rounds lol

pure marsh
prime sapphire
#

Yeah same

pure marsh
#

I got 40 in 300 raids last wipe then quit questing and PvP only

prime sapphire
#

Yeah makes sense. Also @shrewd tree I have had 40 mil and still run naked with a shemag dvl and messanger satchel.

shrewd tree
#

Lol

prime sapphire
#

Only profit BBY

#

Though to be fair I usually fill a few ammo cases with m993's

pure marsh
#

I main shotguns. It's hard to lose money on that end

prime sapphire
#

So that is costly

finite ginkgo
#

Does your hideout and everything get reset in wipe?

pure marsh
#

Yup

prime sapphire
#

Yes

finite ginkgo
#

Wow.

pure marsh
#

Eve are we friends now or what?

signal depot
#

i need to upgrade shotgun for mission, am i best off waiting till I unlock the workbench 1st? im only lvl 5 haaving trouble finding the attachments needed fropm vendors

prime sapphire
#

Yeah I am game. Haven't been able to play this wipe yet tho.

#

Will be able to in just under a month.

pure marsh
#

I've been playing rust 😅

prime sapphire
#

Currently living in Yellowstone so gaming is..... Complicated

fading violet
worldly aspen
#

I (lvl 17, first wipe) currently have two scav junk boxes that are full and i am fixing to buy another one. Is this good or am i being dumb by hoarding this much?

fading violet
#

i am willing to bet over half of your stuff can just be sold to traders

worldly aspen
fading violet
#

I have 2, one for crafting ingredients and 1 for stuff I'll sell and it's more than enough for me

bold kernel
#

that shit look like the battle pass

bold kernel
#

that shit look like a legendary chest

prime sapphire
#

Pre lvl 20 you can pretty much vender everything.

west plover
#

how well would ap 6.3 work for leg meta with a vector? I'm out of RIP ammo and in raid but have AP 6.3

prime sapphire
#

Unless you know for sure it's a quest item.

#

Ap6.3 will pen all armor just shoot chest and head.

#

2nd best ammo in slot.

normal plover
#

All armor is a hella of an exaggeration

prime sapphire
#

@west plover

normal plover
#

Shi will bounce of of level 5 and has a struggle with level 4

prime sapphire
#

Nah it shreds lvl 4 has a bit of a struggle with 5 sometimes

normal plover
#

That's pbp

west plover
prime sapphire
#

Nah

#

You won't have to worry about it

prime sapphire
#

That shit shreds.

#

Especially out of a vector

normal plover
#

This one

prime sapphire
#

If it bounces you will 0 the armor before they can react.

#

Shut is dumb af xD

#

To be fair tho my philosophy is if it's not M993 the ammo is shit.

wispy tapir
#

Can you leave offline raids?

prime sapphire
#

Yes

#

Offline you won't lose anything for

wispy tapir
#

Cool

prime sapphire
#

It's completely for practice

#

You don't keep anything either

wispy tapir
#

Ok good I am shit my pants when a dude walked up on me lmao

prime sapphire
#

:)

wispy tapir
#

Does anyone want to group up? I kinda don't want to do my first raid alone lol so I can learn as I go?

prime sapphire
#

Sorry would have just under 300 ping or I would xD

#

Just run scavs untill you find a partner.r

wispy tapir
#

No worries

prime sapphire
#

It's free realestate

#

Post in lfg and you will find someone

#

Or look for a Sherpa

fading violet
#

good luck finding a person to play with you in lfg if you are lv1 tho lol

prime sapphire
#

It's not too hard just say you are new and looking for people to play with. You will find people just fine.

#

Just dont hide it and you are good.

coral citrus
#

5 insurance just came back

#

pretty sure all of them are pistols xp

#

are visor-less helmets worth the weight?

normal plover
#

If it covers ur ears like a ulach or that green bowl of a helmet then its good

how do you report someone on yalls discord server for team killing after getting in raid then leaving discord

Quick question: Does holding shift hold your breath (which makes you stabilize your gun) while you ads?
I notice my weapon is swaying like crazy when i mounted a sight

coral citrus
#

OMG THANK YOU

#

A beginner video i watched said to use shift

#

so i assumed he was correct

#

starts praying for you

rich rose
#

Is m855 good?

merry dust
#

but its prob your best ammo

#

also, still hot pfp

rich rose
#

what about m856a1

fathom plank
#

thats a little better then m855

#

but nothing amazing

rich rose
#

is it better than either prs gs or bt gs or bp gs

fathom plank
#

PRS is hot garbage

#

bt and bp are also pretty good rounds

#

BT has the same penetration power as m856a1

#

bp being a little lower

bold kernel
#

Any advice on how to get money and level up fast?

was camping in a bush over a wall near construction/north of scav fortress for several minutes, no one saw me go here... two people from dorms come up on the other side of the concrete wall, and lob a nade over the wall right near me. shrapnel doesn't hit me, but man that was sus

royal belfry
#

what do i sell to skier

#

to level him up

#

wtf when did mk47 go from skier 3 to 4

coral citrus
#

For penetration calculation, do you just directly multiply the durability percentage to the base penetration chance of the bullet-to-armour ?

yeah this wipe? nice joke

normal plover

Why u say dat

ergo on it is straight garbage now, and recoil isnt even that great

Whats the price diff

river burrow
#

lol youre kidding right?

#

assuming youve done a few peacekeeper quests its over 5 times the price

merry dust
#

Last time I checked ap was 1100 a round and fmj was 1000

royal belfry
#

how much did mk47 use to cost?

crude citrus
#

why is it that if i hold a corner someone can sprint round and kill me yet not die to me dumping a mag into them

#

like what the hell is with the latency and desync

rugged solstice
#

Depends on how the person was equipped and where you hit them and with what bullets. Also on close range, it's best to hipfire and try to hit their head or thorax

crude citrus
#

Its just dumb like i may aswell not take armor or a helmet

#

cause ill die anyway

compact zenith
#

No armor at all makes you a one shot practically anywhere

#

Not worth it

royal belfry
#

make sure to check the shot stats

#

ive definitely had times ive shot like

#

5 bullets

#

and then on the results screen it says i shot none

#

pretty amusing

crude citrus
#

not really, just shit coding

fathom ocean
#

What

bronze maple
#

Does the ULACH IIIA's sound reduction debuff still apply if I am wearing a headset with it?

crude citrus
#

armor or no i die

#

Like why

bronze maple
#

because mosin is very big bullet

#

and depends on where he shot u it can damage multiple body parts

crude citrus
#

thorax dead

bronze maple
#

like goes in through one of ur arm, through ur torso, and then through ur other arm

crude citrus
#

Like i barely saw the dude

#

and boom

#

I legit saw him glitch forward a couple meters before i died

bronze maple
#

yea as a beginner i just play this game as a stealth game not a shooter game if I get detected I consider it mission fail lmao

#

that's prob just this game's shit netcode

#

make sure to use caps lock to toggle between fast and slow movement crouched caps lock movement is super slow but is also like silent so I just use that to stalk around the map and hide in bushes

#

i dont even shoot people that walk over me when I am in a bush I just let them pass so I can go do my quests lmao

It takes for me 2 minutes to load before the "awaiting session start " normal?

Or with

coral citrus
#

With ssd

upper iron
#

Pretty normal imo 🤷

coral citrus
#

I edifed

upper iron
#

I load in 1 min with an NVMe, sounds about right for an SSD, takes like 4 mins with a HDD

#

I guess

coral citrus
#

Thats like GTA levels holy shit

toxic ore

can someone help me i cant survive i have 3k roubles

bronze maple
#

loading in faster than that doesnt even matter cause ur gonna end up waiting for players for like 2 mins anyways

yup

its like having ssd for league of legends

ur gonna end up waiting for the one guy with hdd so why care about ur own loading speed

Oh didn't know that. I read on reddit that some people spawned first so I assumed it was battlefield style

atm im so frustrated

#

because my item is not FIR AGAIN

rugged solstice
#

not sure what the amount is you've to reach

coral citrus
#

Dude I really wanna shoot myself now

crude citrus
#

some arbitrary amount cause nikita is a cuck probably

inner nymph
#

I think the amount is somewhere around 600

#

Just loot a bit and you should be fine

coral citrus
#

quick questions
How to check stamina without sound?

I assume to check exp you also press tab?

#

I normally press tab to check stamina but that makes sound

rugged solstice
#

Aim your gun or slow with mousewheel

coral citrus
#

Thanks to all :p

#

You guys make playing this game less frustrating

inner nymph
#

You can also set your stamina to always show

analog fulcrum
#

@coral citrus to not get a "run through" you need to hit a certain ammount of xp, OR u can just be in the raid for minimum 10minutes

sand herald
#

You can loot to speed up the surviving for 7 minutes thing but I cannot guarantee you how much time it cuts off

normal plover
#

U would know ratmark

Why not ricemark

I'm kinda down for ricemark

Anyone wanna group NA

coral citrus
#

i couldnt even find a run through page on tarkov wiki

#

ooo, this para was off the found in raid page

rugged solstice
coral citrus
#

Another thing:
I feel as though how successful my cache/money runs are is purely dependent if the guys that spawn near the caches decides to do a cache run

coral citrus
#

Like I feel im getting better because im getting more valuable loot.
but truth is its just me quick googling the price per slot and getting lucky that no one took the cache stuff

sand herald
#

if you spawn in with cache runners while you cache run yourself you're most likely not going to get much

#

cause they're looting them too

#

if you wanna do stash runs go shoreline

coral citrus
#

nah i did a cache run because i spawned too far from any meds location in customs

#

im still trying to do that quest

#

i certainly don't feel i can get much better at tarkov (gameplay wise at least),
i think most of the skill involved is probably the decision making, be it if it helps you progress faster or using more efficient ammo/guns , thats about it?
like the knowledge of how common or rare something is that you can sell it off to make space etc, and making faster decisions based on loot because you don't need to google.
prob shortcuts / flanks around certain buildings to get the drop on someone.
Like theres no depth to the learning in tarkov, most of it is just through experience. You don't get to apply whatever you learnt in new situations.

It might be because im a noob so i don't see the scope of the skill ceiling so someone enlighten me.

#

Because I noticed that alot of the questions i was asking in this chat was decision related questions rather than hey can someone explain this to me, or im stuck doing this etc

#

yep, I understand that.
Which is why I say that i don't see what you can learn in tarkov beyond those few things I mentioned that you get to apply to new situations.

Im not trying to shit on tarkov, I just wanna see if the vets can offer other perspectives

i remember there being a picture of literally every quest item in the game that you needed on the wiki, cant remember the link though

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Quests, both player-given and dynamically generated, are intended to be a large part of Escape from Tarkov.
Some require you to pick stuff up for certain traders, while others require you to kill other operators or mark vehicles and specific places.
Quests are the fastest way of gaining EXP. Completing one will often reward you with experience p...

2 man squad #20

I thought it decreased based on how many times you used rather than your rep

olive turret
#

Like each map is counted separately

daring raven
#

how do i reach level 20???

bold kernel

And if it gave .5 the first time it gives .25 the next and so on (those aren’t actually the values)

I'm unlucky I guess

RNG babe

olive turret
#

.25 then .13

#

It’s different for each map though

#

So .25 on customs then doing it in ic is another .25

Ah ok

versed vigil
#

oh man

#

this scav karma thing sucks

#

someone shot me

#

missed with a shotgun at point blank

#

i kill him

#

because i have paracord and labs card

#

I'm the bad guy now

tired hollow
#

Do you still get cursed if all you bring in as pmc is a pistol and 2 mags?

versed vigil
#

I think so

alpine trout
#

I've literally never seen tagged and cursed myself

#

in my 1000 hours

#

feels like a myth tbh

versed vigil
#

it's not like you get a beacon on your head

#

just scavs rush you instead of running away

tired hollow
#

Thats kinda how i feel, Just went into a raid with only a pistol and 2 mags, definitely was not hunted

#

I don't know if still a thing or not

alpine trout
#

Maybe they toned it down, I remember a video when it was first introduced where a literal 10 man scav army just beelined for someone

tired hollow
#

Oh god

#

that sounds awesome yet terrifying

alpine trout
#

If it was a thing, they either turned it off or toned it down lol

serene reef
#

which shotgun is the ap20 chad slayer?

radiant rain
# versed vigil I'm the bad guy now

remember, unless you actively want to fight, you don't HAVE to fight. a lot of times you have the option to just run away. if he missed, you had time to run. if it was point blank and he missed, the player was a horrible shot and you most definitely would've survived just running away.

serene reef
#

mp153?

#

155?

alpine trout
#

either-or

#

it's the ammo that matters

serene reef
#

i need 12g supressed for shoreline

#

spa pt1 and punisher

alpine trout
#

just use the 155

#

I use those quests to get wacky with it, saiga-12 is fun

cobalt vector
alpine trout
#

wow I was about to help that guy and he deleted his message

versed vigil
#

just because the guy missed a shot

#

I literally ran straight to the extraction

#

and that guy chased me

#

if I had no gear I wouldn't have shot back until I got hit

radiant rain
#

just saying, most times people don't have to shoot back. whenever i help people in the sherpa hub they mention how they had to shoot back because some other scav missed their shot. they even mention how they had to kill bosses and their guards because they shot at them lmao. there's always the option to run away

#

when i'm in a bad spot and get shot at, 10/10 times i will run off to the nearest cover and 9/10 i make it there alive

versed vigil
#

yeah, but the option is rendered void when I carry 300k and some dude took the long route to come find and hunt me

radiant rain
#

how so?

versed vigil
#

if I die I lose all the good stuff

radiant rain
#

would it matter?

versed vigil
#

a lot

radiant rain
#

whatever you lost when you die doesn't exist anymore

cobalt vector
#

best example of not shooting when u dont have to

versed vigil
#

yeah but I extracted my loot, so I got labs card and paracord

cobalt vector
#

spent like 2 mins with them running around my ass

radiant rain
versed vigil
#

if I didn't kill them, I wouldn't have either

radiant rain
# cobalt vector

good shit, most people would've resorted to shooting and then complaining about encountering groups lmao. being patient pays off

cobalt vector
#

dude look how stacked those mfers were

versed vigil
#

IDK why it doesn't count as hostile when someone shoots me and misses

radiant rain
cobalt vector
#

i made it out, completed a quest and was happy

#

if i even made one shot, i couldve killed one yeah cool but not killing both

versed vigil
#

like, the game should detect there are no nearby raiders or PMCs

radiant rain
versed vigil
#

otherwise, what it does is encourage people to just troll. Isn't it the point to have friendly scav players?

radiant rain
versed vigil
#

IDK, to me it sounds like people who just want to jump in and shoot everyone have the upper hand

radiant rain
#

decision making is (going to be) a HUGE thing. in the future, fights are gonna slow down drastically. and with the upcoming pmc karma, you're gonna want to identify your targets before you take a shot, so the fights will slow down a lot. the game is going to make you think twice, whether to take a shot, run off or stay silent

versed vigil
#

PMC karma?

radiant rain
radiant rain
# versed vigil PMC karma?

yeah, akin to scav karma. shooting players of your own faction will lower your reputation and potentially end up with death squads looking for you, bluntly put.

radiant rain
#

^from what i know, nikita might have different plans

crude citrus
#

XD

crude citrus
#

a broken system

radiant rain

unless they add npc pmcs who will murder you if you have negative karma

#

but even then

bold kernel
velvet blade
#

wait a minute, scavs don't shoot you as long as you're shooting them?

#

I just continuously single fire'd a scav for like 10 seconds and he never shot me

alpine trout
#

they can get stunned

radiant rain
unkempt gulch
#

do killing pmcs give more xp than killing scavs?

fallow spire
#

Somebody to love and susy balls are blasting music in our channel

#

just an fyi to not play with these losers

radiant rain
versed vigil
#

also, 2nd scav

#

this time I didn't react because I had nothing on me

radiant rain
#

wym you didn't react?

versed vigil
#

he was looking at me

#

I QEQE

#

he took aim and shot me in the face

radiant rain
versed vigil
#

I knew that was going to happen

#

it's always the same thing

#

that's why I don't play scav

#

if I need money, I'd rather hatchet run than scav

ashen thicket
#

do you still have to wear scav vest for punisher part 4?

radiant rain
#

yes, scav vest and a balaclava of your choice

#

has to be both

ashen thicket
#

damn

#

last time u only have to wear balaclava

versed vigil
#

btw, scav stuff aside, is it worth killing sanitar vs collecting all the stuff for therapist?

#

I'd say jaeger's part is so much easier and yields much more of everything

radiant rain
ashen thicket
#

sad

radiant rain
versed vigil
#

yeah well

#

I've never seen most of those injectors, nor any labs card except blue

#

tyty

#

as a matter of fact, I killed sanitar with a pistol the raid before I was given the mission

#

sad times

velvet blade
#

😦

versed vigil
#

doesn't matter tho because I was running pistol with 2 mags and died after killing him and 1 guard

silent hollow
#

as a beginner, is it worth it for me to just sell all the expensive items i get from raids? my inventory is filling up and i need space

inner nymph
#

Yes

silent hollow
#

also should i start using my rifles…before i was going in with pistols and sks

inner nymph
#

If its a quest item you should keep it though

silent hollow
#

oh ok…i was getting expensive armors and headsets..so i sold them

inner nymph
#

Stuff like guns and armor you can sell if you feel the need

#

Ah

#

Its good to search up the items on the wiki to see if its needed for a quest

silent hollow
#

ok thanks

#

i’m going to start using the m4s from starter stash thing because i need space

inner nymph
#

gl

silent hollow
#

thanks

radiant rain
silent hollow
#

ok thanks

radiant rain
#

also, unless you have a decent amount of M856A1, M855A1 or even better 5.56 ammo, don't bother with M4-like rifles. stick to ak's (7.62x39 preferably, as PS performs really well even against level 4 armor and is available from level 1 prapor).

silent hollow
#

i need inventory space….so i don’t know what to do

inner nymph
#

Sell it

#

Unless you feel confident to not die

Keep those

#

how do you get tagged and cursed? 🤔 (not in offline)

brazen atlas
#

As a PMC, does kills toward bad player-scavs and PMCs go toward fence?

#

Or is that only scavs?

ocean slate
#

only on scav

brazen atlas
#

Oh. Darn.

#

Thank you anyway- I appreciate it

radiant rain
velvet blade
#

wtf REALLY? I didn't know that

#

so if I go pistol only this still counts as tagged and cursed?

merry dust
#

No

#

A gun, or rig and (armor or backpack?)

velvet blade
#

so what it basically means is that nearby scavs will pre-see you without having to look around?

#

or all AI basically

#

I'm failing to find info about this in wiki

merry dust
#

They TARGET you

#

like if you’re maybe a second story dorm away

they’ll come to you
