[merry dust]

so im not

[near moss]

naa

face is secure

[fervent swift]

But I find it to pay itself off from the reduced fuel consumption

[merry dust]

i just want a profitable craft

everything is like not worth

[fervent swift]

3 cans for over a week of uptime? Sign me up

[bold kernel]

what happened

[atomic knoll]

craft wires

[merry dust]

9k each

[near moss]

its big profit

[atomic knoll]

what makes u think it's not a big profit?

[near moss]

cause i im noob

[bold kernel]

@bold kernel u killed me

[near moss]

and i find the rope things

[merry dust]

i think its fuel that pushes me past the line

160-180k each

[atomic knoll]

Fuel is free as long as u have bitcoin farm

[wispy marten]

Reuse the fuel cans for crafts too

Grenade/mag cases

[near moss]

yea but you have to waist 2-3mil before you get it

[wispy marten]

When they’re empty

[atomic knoll]

u get free fuel and more?

Unless you don't craft

Then ok I won't say anything else

[bold kernel]

fuck, my bad

[merry dust]

wait a sec

[atomic knoll]

Also, making shampoo/ripstop are pretty profitable too

[merry dust]

this is kinda worth

[atomic knoll]

I would prefer making shampoo

[near moss]

dont drop soap if you find

[bold kernel]

i have a shitty pc and the game froze for me for like good 10 seconds, and when my game unlagged i saw you pmc literally besides me and another two guys near that rock, so i began to shoot sorry

[fervent swift]

Me and my friends drops soap to each other as a meme

[atomic knoll]

[fervent swift]

Tbh tarkov should implement a giving system similar to the forest where you simply hold an item out for people to grab

[atomic knoll]

[wooden fossil]

Me and 2 friends are free to help with quests and general play if anyone is interested

[bleak crystal]

Should i sell or keep the RB-ORB1 key?

[potent crater]

KEEP

from what i know that key is big money

[bleak crystal]

i spawned with it as a scav

[potent crater]

yah keep

[bleak crystal]

Oki 😄

[potent crater]

i dont wanna seem like im trying to one up you because i hate when people do this but i spawned with a dorms marked key on scav TWICE

[bleak crystal]

Damn! That's lucky

[potent crater]

ikr

and another time if you know factory the shit spawn near glass hall way where you go to shoot people in glass hallway from no one looted it and it had a dorms marked key idk how and the jacket had 2 RB-VO

[fervent swift]

Get your rep up and you'll get an infinite amount of labs cards

[potent crater]

yah i have been geting those a bit too

[fervent swift]

Even better is all the injectors you get

[slim frigate]

Is PS gzh good for the SKS?

[fervent swift]

I'm two away from finishing samples without looting a single one

[potent crater]

if you dont have flea you can run it or if you dont have a bit of money to spend on the better ammo

[potent crater]

what is samples

[bleak crystal]

There was a time that i got two keycard acess twice in a row

[slim frigate]

Is there better ammo available without flea market while affordable?

[bleak crystal]

as scav

[fervent swift]

Ps gzh is basically the best budget ammo around

[slim frigate]

Cool

[fervent swift]

A peacekeeper task

[potent crater]

i have 6.3 mil and 2 wallets should i buy a third or wait for a money case later

[fervent swift]

Gotta hand in a bunch of different injectors

[potent crater]

i havent heard about getting a lot of injectors but now that i am thinking about it i have gotten some sj6 and sj1's

[atomic knoll]

How's your hideout?

[potent crater]

decent

i could upgrade some stuff but from what i know that i need upgraded needs like better trader lvls which i need PMC levels for and stuff

[bold kernel]

do i need a key for the quest in big red?

[potent crater]

yes

[bold kernel]

how do i get?

[potent crater]

jackets

i dont think there is a static spawn

[bold kernel]

is it found on customs?

[whole thistle]

It's found anywhere

[potent crater]

its tarcone directors office key

[whole thistle]

In jackets and scav pockets

[bold kernel]

yea

[atomic knoll]

Then don't bother about wallets. Your money will go up and down like one of the stocks when the market crashes

[bold kernel]

whats the best place?

with jackets

[atomic knoll]

Actually no, best place is filing cabinets

[whole thistle]

Dorms

[potent crater]

shoreline village i think but i dont think you want to run that

[whole thistle]

For keys lol

[atomic knoll]

For big red key no?

Director tarkov office?

[bold kernel]

i need big red key

[whole thistle]

You can also trade for the key from therapist @bold kernel

[bold kernel]

Director tarkov office

[atomic knoll]

Yeah

It's on filing cabinets

[potent crater]

d i r e c t o r t a r k o v o f f i c e

[bold kernel]

i have none of those

lool

ima try and scav run find it

[atomic knoll]

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

[bold kernel]

?

is that where its found?

[potent crater]

i dont think so

[atomic knoll]

It can spawn there

Check the wiki for the loot

It's a very common key

[whole thistle]

Not common but they can spawn there

[livid basalt]

anyone from eu wanna play some rounds

[atomic knoll]

.....

[bold kernel]

ok

ill try

[whole thistle]

I found 8 director keys pre flea from jackets lol

[atomic knoll]

Not common? Literally find 1 every raid

From filing cabinets

In reserve

[whole thistle]

I think I got 2 from farming filing cabinets

[atomic knoll]

I don't even bother looting it

As it's cheap

[fresh silo]

can someone help me do the bunker part one

[potent crater]

what do i do with my FIR mp9-N

[whole thistle]

Use it or sell it like any other gun lol

[atomic knoll]

sell the mp9 if you are not using it

That's about it

[potent crater]

i just found it on a scav so i didnt know

[atomic knoll]

Just try out the gun and see if u like it

That's all

If not, sell it

It's good if u have the shooting range in your hideout

[slow sleet]

Sup dragon

[potent crater]

hey

[edgy sail]

Hello, i just started playing last night, would anyone want to help me out?

im entirely new to pc shooters

[potent crater]

dm me i can help later after school

that scav was camping extract

[bleak crystal]

Is BP ammo even good for 5.45x39?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[atomic knoll]

ehhh

If u got it for free sure

[whole thistle]

^

[atomic knoll]

Otherwise, no

[bleak crystal]

Which one is good for 5.45x39 then?

that is not THAT expensive

[lusty glacier]

do i level strenggth as long as i am ever so slightly overweight?

[whole thistle]

As long as it's yellow yes

[strong barn]

Yea; its leveled by distance travelled overweight so the closest to 'slightly overweight' you can be; the more distance you can travel <3

[atomic knoll]

tbh all of them are expensive

The usable ones

Even bt is at 500 rubles

[whole thistle]

That's why you gotta use pp

[atomic knoll]

And it's NOT worth it at 500 rubles

[slim grove]

anyone trying to help me with quests ?

[modest ivy]

@bleak crystal BP ammo for 5.45 is alright. It’s low mid tier ammo. After comes BT, then BS, then igolnik

[atomic knoll]

I would just avoid 5.45 in general

[whole thistle]

^

[atomic knoll]

If u have peacekeeper unlocked, and have done the cult part 1

[modest ivy]

BS and igolnik are the only 2 you really want to be using otherwise I would stick to using 7.62

[atomic knoll]

Use 5..56 x 45 m856a1

[bleak crystal]

feels like BP doesnt even do damage

its so weird tbh.. i feel like i shot someone so many times, and hit count is only 7 :p

Still very nooby at this game

[whole thistle]

I never use it except pp for the first 3 days of wipe lol

[atomic knoll]

It was good when bt were so free

Since bt were like 200 per shot

Then came the nerf...

[whole thistle]

I remember buying boxes of 120 bt for 20k 😭

[atomic knoll]

Seriously consider m856a1

And ak 101/102

If u have the ammo unlocked

[whole thistle]

416 if you're a sigma male

[fading violet]

just use MDR

cheap and relatively low recoil

[atomic knoll]

Or the MDR whatever

[strong barn]

hk with warmage unironically

[whole thistle]

Your firerates disgust me

[atomic knoll]

Thing is, it's basically a BT with higher flesh dmg

And can be bought from traders

Which is why it's great

And it's 3 usd

[whole thistle]

Plus it's used in way cooler guns

[atomic knoll]

cool is subjective tbh

I think the AKs are plenty cool

[whole thistle]

Not when it's my opinion

[lusty glacier]

?

so this level strenght good yes

[atomic knoll]

Do u have doc case?

[sterile lotus]

tf are keytools so expensive for 720k. And it can only hold keys

[lusty glacier]

yes

[whole thistle]

Docs gaming

[atomic knoll]

Just fill it up with sas drive till you are overweight

At least it doesn't take up your bag space

[sterile lotus]

im a docs gamer @whole thistle

[whole thistle]

Who isnt

Fuck keytool

[lusty glacier]

is sas drives better than buckshots?

fak

[sterile lotus]

330k for a docs right now

[whole thistle]

You don't have to rebuy it every raid

[atomic knoll]

SAS drives will always be in your doc case

In your secure container

[lusty glacier]

id rather have the space in my dog case

[sterile lotus]

just copped me 2 more 😈

[atomic knoll]

How many keys do u bring?

[lusty glacier]

yes

[modest ivy]

@sterile lotus keys unlock doors with some of the best loot in game. You can make almost 1 mil or over in 1 run with the right keys

[atomic knoll]

And a SAS drive is 800 grams. You just need a couple along with your normal loadout to hit overweight

[lusty glacier]

actually if its customs just half a sicc case

[atomic knoll]

You just need to hit yellow

[sterile lotus]

oh ye i know im just pointing a keytool is 720k and IT can only hold keys while docs are 350k and can hold more stuff in it

[lusty glacier]

buckshot is 1kg for 600 roubles so i dont mind rebuying it

[wispy glade]

u can sell the sas drives

its free

[strong barn]

If your naked it takes
3 docs cases
with 2 full of sas drives
the third can be added or removed to in order to reach that slight overweight
also once your at max strength just sell all the SAS drives to peacekeeper and you get roughly 12 000 USD

[atomic knoll]

Or u can use them to craft usb drives

[lusty glacier]

im going normal runs

[modest ivy]

Yeah it could be that the key tools only takes 1 space so holding 2 key tools is like double the docs case

[atomic knoll]

How heavy is your regular loadout?

[lusty glacier]

i dont want to go naked

[atomic knoll]

....

[strong barn]

I hatchet ran for about 10 days overweight nonstop w/ an airfilter in and now I have over 105 melee kills with 10 confirmed on PMC's

[lusty glacier]

26kg

normal loadout

[atomic knoll]

How much to hit overweight?

[lusty glacier]

31.6kg

[atomic knoll]

those ammo are not 31 kg

[strong barn]

probs with his currenty loadout

[lusty glacier]

actually 30.7kg

[strong barn]

sooner fill it with doc's and sas' and make money 100% rather than bring in a set of gear where all my backup shit has been re-placed with 7mm buckshot but wtvr if you think it helps you make more money/level strength faster then do whatever works for you

[lusty glacier]

im 31kg with the buckshots and everything e;se

[wispy glade]

true gamer kit

[atomic knoll]

all u need is 4kg

which is 5 sas drives

.....

[strong barn]

.....

[lusty glacier]

which is ~6 stacks of buckshots

[whole thistle]

Why 2 stronk cases

[lusty glacier]

3600 roubles

[wispy glade]

why take gear

[lusty glacier]

idk whats the problem

[atomic knoll]

it takes up your real estate

[lusty glacier]

i can replace it

[wispy glade]

both are filled with sas drives

[strong barn]

[atomic knoll]

Sure but u won't be overweight if u pick up light stuff

Since 1 stack is 1 kg

[strong barn]

now the true meme's begin rushing kids with melee weapons and not giving a fuck because your strength skillgains reached diminishing returns so its a bonus that you die

[atomic knoll]

So if an item takes up 4 slots and weighs 2 kg, u net loss 2kg

[wispy glade]

i had a guy run away from me cuz i was using the m2, and he would die if he turned around to shoot lol

[strong barn]

You know he clearly has it all figured out; he hasnt listened or acknowledged anything you've said or ive said besides 'Ill do it better'

[atomic knoll]

ok then

Then why is he asking here

I don't get it

[strong barn]

I dont either 🤷

[lusty glacier]

my question was if getting slightly overweight is all i need for strength

i show loadout

loadout good

ok

[atomic knoll]

Yes then. Go along with your loadout

[wispy glade]

just needs to be in yellow, having more wont give more even though it should imo

[strong barn]

Yea cool you clearly don't need any more input so off you go!

let us know when you get max strength <3

[dawn jay]

can anyone give like a go to list of keys for customs? found a key tool and trying to set it up

[strong barn]

@dawn jay This is how I keep my keytool setup so I can go woods/customs and not give a fuck about switching shit but its a good set
all the safe keys; and a few extra

[astral bison]

Hey I’m very new to eft and I’ve played legit 6 hours of the game and I don’t even know how to customize my weapon. Is there anyone willing to help me today and maybe play a game or even just teach me a bit about the game?

[dawn jay]

Thanks a ton man

[strong barn]

1 slot for that nice key you'll eventually find and want to throw in there

[atomic knoll]

You can ignore the usec key storage key tbh

It's kinda meh

[strong barn]

I like

that building with those 2 rooms = full trizip if solo every time

and you cant make the jump without level 4 or 7 strength or something into the windows :P

plus who doesnt like glitched double boxes

[atomic knoll]

Never found good stuff in it. Well it's cheap so up to u

[strong barn]

Its like any weapon crate; you never know what your gunna find (anything from attachments to SLICKS can be in those boxes)

that approach of 'I never found anything in that room so it must be useless' is how people miss a ton of shit everygame

[dawn jay]

only lvl 14 so its really "do i have it or not?" lol

[strong barn]

Yea--it was more to line up what you currently have stashed vs what you can actually use
I get it, explore and learn new things. please dont just be a ' RUN MARKED ROOM REEEEEEE THERES NO LOOT ON CUSTOMS REEEE' type of dude :/

[dawn jay]

yeah i basically wait for the scraps tbh xD, still learning the ropes of pvp so not trying to take on the gigachads that rush it

[strong barn]

Those guys barely search boxes and can miss out on some good stuff, levels your search skill too so you take less time doing so in the futute. Even if you find nothing in a crate, its worth searching.

oh also exploration XP for low levels in rooms theyve never been in is an unspoken hero to avoiding run-throughs for quests etc

[dawn jay]

well now that i have the keytool im going to try and learn maps a bit more in depth. i have a basic knowledge of most maps, just dont know all the locked doors tbh

[sterile lotus]

fucker tried to stash his shit. But i sniffed it out

[native lance]

How can I tell what armor I can wear while still wearing a tac rig?

[mild horizon]

With normal rigs any armor, wit armored rigs no other armor

[native lance]

Alright ty

[glacial cobalt]

I think that some armored rigs can be worn over some body armors but Corroshi gave a good rule of thumb

[foggy pier]

No, not possible (anymore)

[strong barn]

that was fixed a long while ago; its one or the other now.

[foggy pier]

^

[glacial cobalt]

Ok

[wispy glade]

cant wait for the plate system

[radiant viper]

Best map for screw nuts and bolts?

[foggy pier]

Interchange Oli has been dead as hell

just stay away from tech stores and routes to them

as well as offices

[versed forum]

Im having trouble logging into the website to download the launcher where would i go to get help for that?

[foggy pier]

Currently having routing problems with certain ISPs. Try using mobile hotspot or VPN

[versed forum]

I have whenever i use vpn i get a temp ban from the website

[humble wing]

offices havnt been that bad lately

[foggy pier]

Try this?

https://prod.escapefromtarkov.com/launcher/download

[versed forum]

Thank you

[foggy pier]

Only reason I say that is because I run into quest hunters there once and awhile

especially player scavs around there for no reason

[humble wing]

just wear an altyn and the scavs cant do shit

[bleak crystal]

Do i sell or keep a signal transmitter?

[crude breach]

Anyone from eu wanna run
im level 10

[cosmic tinsel]

is it FiR?

[bleak crystal]

Yes

[cosmic tinsel]

you'll need one for a quest

and two for intel center 3

[viral veldt]

Do my shops start at level 1 or 0?

[cosmic tinsel]

1

[strong barn]

rate my factory kit

[whole thistle]

My average victim on factory

[winter geyser]

anyone know what I should sell out of these junkboxes?

[strong barn]

i got head ear's at 20s into the raid

[whole thistle]

Exactly

[strong barn]

LOL

[whole thistle]

Wiki search your items lol

[cosmic tinsel]

some people might be able to help you generally, but only you know what quests and hideout progress you've made

[whole thistle]

^

[cosmic tinsel]

every time zap and i provide insight we mismatch because its extremely subjective and dependent on player progress

[winter geyser]

Yeah I've done that, but all the lists are outdated and I have so many things to do

[cosmic tinsel]

the wikis current

[winter geyser]

maybe I'm looking in the wrong place

[cosmic tinsel]

!wiki fuel conditioner

[broken quail]

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

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Fuel conditioner

Fuel conditioner (FCond) is an item in Escape from Tarkov.

[cosmic tinsel]

this is an item you have that is needed for a quest

[winter geyser]

the list I printed has some of the quest item amounts needed way off

[winter geyser]

saying I need 10 OFZ shells when its 5

[whole thistle]

Because you're a sigma and I'm a plimbo 😤

[cosmic tinsel]

i just googled plimbo and im rollin

[whole thistle]

Plimbo males are way better fr

[cosmic tinsel]

bunch of quests changed this wipe - the wiki is the golden data source

[winter geyser]

oh wait I can build the water collector now

that frees up space

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah

do that!

[somber rain]

im lvl 16

so close to flea

help

[cosmic tinsel]

most of what you have can be used for SOMETHING

i think the DVD drive is an exception

[winter geyser]

it's so hard to find hoses

[somber rain]

ong bro

i need some for lav 2 so i can finish ice cream cones

i also just need 3 t-shaped plugs for farming part 2

[winter geyser]

have it for rest area lvl 2

[somber rain]

then i can go to farming part 3

[unique steeple]

kill killa

[somber rain]

and then SBIH

[whole thistle]

Go back in time to the week before this wipe and go reserve to kill every scav boss then use all the keycards to farm raiders on labs then go back to the present with your loot

[cosmic tinsel]

firesteel, fuelcon, tank batttery, propane, and alkali are all items that are needed FiR

[whole thistle]

It's really that simple I don't know how you didn't think of doing it

[somber rain]

that transfers to xp how?

[whole thistle]

Raiders give like 2k xp per kill

[winter geyser]

feels bad, I've already grabbed mine off a dead raider and have some extra for gunsmith

[somber rain]

TF?

where do raiders even spawn

how do they spawn

im a whore for xp

gimme gimme

[whole thistle]

Reserve D2 and hermetic door

[somber rain]

oh fuck reserve ill stuck with 1 level every 3 days

[whole thistle]

Also most labs extracts

[somber rain]

i have a labs access but i dont plan on it anytime soon

[winter geyser]

hermetic door, the raider i grabbed them from literally was sniped out of nowhere

[whole thistle]

If you get to D2 first the raiders aren't too hard

[winter geyser]

hit the ground for 4 minutes before dashing over and going prone

[somber rain]

man i dont even know how to kill raiders

[winter geyser]

then running to the train like a rat

[whole thistle]

Agro them then hide

[somber rain]

i cant kill them with PS

not 7.62 atleast

[whole thistle]

You can

[somber rain]

real shit?

how

[whole thistle]

Ps is goated

[somber rain]

elaborate

i know it is

[unique steeple]

ong

[somber rain]

i thought raiders were busted

[whole thistle]

Shoot face or chest

[somber rain]

i always run PS in my enjoyable akms

AKM's

not amks

the akms is ass

[whole thistle]

They're kinda neurodivergent it's not the hardest thing to kill them

It's like rust oil rig just agro them then hide they'll blindly run at you lol

[somber rain]

so i can rat run with an sks+sight+PS and heals?

and i can just bomb raiders and extract at D2?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[somber rain]

i remember running reserve once and i went to the underground area with 4 other people

[winter geyser]

you have to push the lever in the underground to spawn them

[somber rain]

and 8 raiders pulled up and rollled us

can i not just pull hermetic door lever?

[winter geyser]

I made the mistake of thinking the lever that opened the extract did that

[whole thistle]

When you hit the D2 switch the raiders just materialize inside the bunker super close to you

[somber rain]

doesnt that open raiders?

[whole thistle]

You can but that alerts the whole map that readers are spawning so it's riskier

[winter geyser]

yeah, but the siren will let everyone know that some raiders are ready to be shot

and people will start trying to leave

[whole thistle]

True

[somber rain]

ok, so how do i do it without alertin

[whole thistle]

D2

It has no alarm

[somber rain]

and it spawns raiders?

[whole thistle]

The rats will storm the extract lmao

[whole thistle]

Yeah

It doesn't spawn them at the extract like hermetic it spawns them around the switch

[somber rain]

but is it a definite spawn tho

[winter geyser]

that's what I always do when scavving

[whole thistle]

In the main room of the bunker and the offices

[whole thistle]

No

[somber rain]

shit

[whole thistle]

Neither are

If they don't spawn you can just run to extract

[winter geyser]

just schmoove over to bunker, grab that gamer loot, and shimmy into the heating pipe to freedom

[somber rain]

so raiders can have the 60 round mags im looking for?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[winter geyser]

yep

[whole thistle]

That's how my friend got his lol

[somber rain]

how common is it

[bold kernel]

kill tagilla once

he gave me fucking 4 60 round mags

[winter geyser]

along with mk47s and other good stuff

[whole thistle]

It's one of their like 10 possible guns they can gave

[somber rain]

do you think that I, a level 16, can kill tagilla?

[whole thistle]

So pretty common

[somber rain]

i appreciate your faith in people

[bold kernel]

killed him solo with a meme gun and i was level 12 at the time

[somber rain]

damn

too bad he barely fuckin spawns

[whole thistle]

If you aimbot it's really easy tbh

[bold kernel]

hold on let me find the clip

[winter geyser]

if you want to do the "recommended" way, just play woods and keep checking the ZB-1014 bunker

[somber rain]

plus pmc factory is just horrible

[slow sleet]

Tagilla is the easiest boss to solo hands down

[winter geyser]

that's where the game says they'll spawn

[whole thistle]

plus pmc factory is just horrible

[slow sleet]

Maybe next to shturman

[somber rain]

i was thinking about that but each time its only like a 1/10 chance for one or two

[somber rain]

scav factory can have some pretty good stuff

[whole thistle]

@slow sleet I disapprove of you not putting reshala at the bottom

[somber rain]

me and my friend got a labs access and a dorms marked on one run

[whole thistle]

Not as good as literally any other loot run lol

[slow sleet]

Everytikeni spawn customs 8 never saw rashala

[somber rain]

yeah, but factory pmc's are nonexistant on scav

[slow sleet]

So i cant place him period

[somber rain]

its just free loot

besides dumbass traitor scavs

[bold kernel]

https://medal.tv/clips/44z5HhJ0TowTY/d1337hkgW5uN

[somber rain]

reshala is on shoreline rn

[slow sleet]

:/

So i gotta shorline run all day today ig

[somber rain]

lmao tagilla did a fucking cartwheel

what a game

[whole thistle]

Do you smell burnt toast? Are you slurring your speech?

[somber rain]

what a gamer

[somber rain]

lmao have fun

people camp in the concrete building windows

[whole thistle]

It's a 100% spawn

In resort

[somber rain]

so getting to resort where he is is bad enough

[winter geyser]

didn't that event end already?

[slow sleet]

Yo u know whats funny, when i was younger i smelled burnt toast all the time

[somber rain]

i dont think so

[whole thistle]

So that's why you're like this

[slow sleet]

So i would make up some burnt toast and put cheeze whiz on that shit lol

[whole thistle]

You had a 10 year long stroke

[winter geyser]

also just scav into the resort

[somber rain]

people are still camping resort through the concrete wall windows and i cant get signal part 1 done because of it

[winter geyser]

nobody's there when you spawn in

and there's tons of stuff left behind

[whole thistle]

Can we have an event with a guaranteed Killa spawn? I can't fucking find him 😭

[somber rain]

also, i got to chemical part 4, what do i do about that?

[slow sleet]

Interchange,

:D

[whole thistle]

Skier

[somber rain]

go for skier?

[whole thistle]

He's never there I'm gonna shit myself

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[slow sleet]

Mate

[winter geyser]

some pmc had legit just dumped his armor and gun in a bathroom on shoreline

[slow sleet]

Qhen i play interchange just roll with me lol

[somber rain]

i just want to run interchange and hit up oli for some corrugated hoses

[whole thistle]

The other 2 have really easy forgiveness quests skier's is horrible

[slow sleet]

I always run into that fucker lol

[somber rain]

oh also, i had a juicy customs night raid last night with my friend

got an svds off a scav

with a scope

[whole thistle]

Maybe wait until flea to hand in chemical 4 @somber rain

[winter geyser]

wait I had that happen too

[somber rain]

and i got the last morphine for the therapist quest

and you want to know something?

[whole thistle]

It deletes all of your rep with therapist and prapor until you buy them grenades and keys

[somber rain]

got aimbotted to the face by a scav with buckshot

[slim frigate]

Im level 6 and poor, should i sell any of this stuff for roubles or save it for later down the line for a quest or something

[winter geyser]

died after getting shot in the leg 15 times at new gas by a gang of AI scavs

[somber rain]

im still pissed

they need to nerf scavs

the ones with buckshot

they only kill you with face

its broken

he was also just sitting in a bush

[winter geyser]

the reason they do that is most players peek with only their head

[whole thistle]

Give diaries and ssd to peacekeeper and antique pot to therapist, the rest you should probably keep

[winter geyser]

so scavs will lock onto that since it's their only target

[whole thistle]

Except the CD drives

[somber rain]

yeah i was in the road when he shot me

didnt even fucking yell t me

[slim frigate]

cool thanks

[somber rain]

i was running to ruaf

[slim frigate]

peacekeeper gives dollars right? what should i spend those on

[wispy glade]

Keep the teapot

[winter geyser]

expose more of your body and they'll shoot your arm or miss

[olive peak]

Sometimes they dont yell, they will flip you off instead.

[somber rain]

yeah he saw my entire body

he literally aimbotted my face

[whole thistle]

Scav grindset
Expose yourself in public

[olive peak]

Which if you are not looking makes it seem like they just open fire

[slim frigate]

what do i need the teapot for

[olive peak]

A quest much later on.

[wispy glade]

Quest, annoying af to find

[winter geyser]

scavs joined faze clan??/?/

[olive peak]

You will find more though

[slim frigate]

tbh idek if i'll get up to the quest xD

[olive peak]

Really I find them quite often

[somber rain]

faze jarvis>!>!

[slim frigate]

i keep getting rinsed

[wispy glade]

Im still on the quest at lvl 44 lol

[somber rain]

everytime ive been killed by a scav they never yell at me

i just get decimated from no where

[olive peak]

Oh damn

[winter geyser]

faze nikita tiktoker instagramchik

[whole thistle]

I get a ton out of safes

[somber rain]

faze scavman

whatever

[wispy glade]

I exclusively almost only do safe runs, still nothing

[somber rain]

ill just spam reserve for filing cabinets

[winter geyser]

I only get roubles 😔

[somber rain]

also, how to fight gigachads on reserve with PS ammo? with shit aim* while keeping my dignity*

[winter geyser]

headeyes

works every time

[slow sleet]

Stm9 to the head

Every

Time

[winter geyser]

hide in the corner like a rat

then hit them with the rat trap

[slow sleet]

Goodqgeatley

U

Sir

Fuxk off

[somber rain]

are you ok man?

wtf just happened to you

[winter geyser]

😭

[slow sleet]

Fkin rat tactics

[winter geyser]

depression

[whole thistle]

@slow sleet go to the emergency room

[somber rain]

i hate being a rat

[whole thistle]

Call 911

[somber rain]

but i hate being a chad because of bad ammo and poorness

[slow sleet]

I wanna burn the rats down like the weat is in the west

[somber rain]

also, why tf do people run 5.45x39 before lvl 20

they get themselves killed because of the shitty PS rounds in it

its better to just not use it

[slow sleet]

No matter the gun or ammo, run the game like a chad, be the chad.

[wispy glade]

mag dump ps does some dmg

[slow sleet]

Gear does not define yourself

You do

[somber rain]

how tf do people hit head, eyes then

[whole thistle]

It's really good when the game wiped 2 hours ago

[slow sleet]

U aim

[somber rain]

do they just spray at head level

[slow sleet]

Ever heards of aim down sight lol

[somber rain]

yeah no shit

[whole thistle]

Yes with a beautiful kedr

[somber rain]

wow

such beautiful

[bold kernel]

does any traders sell a measuring tape

[somber rain]

no

[whole thistle]

No

[somber rain]

find it yourself

[bold kernel]

i cant

[somber rain]

scav factory filing cabinets

[bold kernel]

ive been looking for so long

[somber rain]

they're all over the place

[whole thistle]

Factory 😂

[somber rain]

sorry mr chad man

[slow sleet]

Scav factory filing cabnits hooked me up with ao much shit lol

[somber rain]

those of us that are shit at the game have to scav on a map everyone extracts 10 minutes on

[somber rain]

^

[wispy glade]

scav reserve kinda pog tho

[somber rain]

meh

[slow sleet]

Reserve as a scav

Imagine lol

[somber rain]

not when you get doinked by a pmc still in raid on 15 minutes

[slow sleet]

Interchange scav runs mate

[wispy glade]

u can spawn at 40 minutes

and kill pmcs

[somber rain]

interchange scav is useless, techlight and oli are always hit

[hard tangle]

nothing to loot everrrrrr

[somber rain]

and those are the only two useful things

[hard tangle]

always empty

[somber rain]

^

[slow sleet]

Oli is never hit for me, that or east na players suck at looting

[whole thistle]

I always find stuff in texho, oli, and rasmusen

[cosmic tinsel]

scavs can only spawn while pmcs are alive

[somber rain]

yeah ik

[slow sleet]

I run kiba, which is never fully looted

[somber rain]

but a pmc in 15 minutes left in raid?

thats sad

not even headed to extract

[cosmic tinsel]

sometimes you got juicin raids lol

sometimes you're there for sbih

[somber rain]

so should i just spam sks on reserve?

[cosmic tinsel]

and loot after 🤷

[slow sleet]

Kiba, mantis, emercom, texho, techlight, ultra med, then oli

[somber rain]

and aim for head

[slow sleet]

Full af backpack

[cosmic tinsel]

its a good move

[whole thistle]

The factory fallacy
I'm poor so I need any money I can get -> factoy gives a little money I'll play it -> I'm poor so I need any money I can get -> factoy gives a little money I'll play it -> I'm poor so I need any money I can get -> factoy gives a little money I'll play it ->

[limber zinc]

We have found the mf that runs mutant on factory

[somber rain]

you must be running pmc factory

scav factory is where its at

[whole thistle]

No lol

[somber rain]

then you're just shit at loot runs on factory

i know literally every loot spawn on factory

[slow sleet]

Saaaaame

[whole thistle]

I used my scav in factory every time it came up last wipe when I was new and it took me literally a month to get a million rubles lol

[somber rain]

are you just looting dead scavs my guy?

[slow sleet]

Your playing factory wrong then

Plus

[somber rain]

also yes, sometimes it can be empty

[slow sleet]

Expansion makes more profitable runs

[somber rain]

but the more obscure loot spawns still have good stuff

[somber rain]

^

going to med tent to get salewas

for task

thats how i did it

just scav all day

[slow sleet]

Man id grab hand drills out of factory every other raid lol

[somber rain]

plus i need to kill 4 more USECs for skier

for friend from the west p1

which is a fairly hard chore for me

[whole thistle]

Questing on scav

[somber rain]

idk how to kill pmcs

did i say i was doing it on scav?

[whole thistle]

Be as braindead and unpredictable as possible

[somber rain]

so just go full monkey on everyone and bum rush?

[whole thistle]

Run nothing but no stock no dust cover 74us and pray leg level with ps

[somber rain]

damn

does that really work?

[whole thistle]

No

Lol

[somber rain]

figured

i could just spam base mp5 with quakemaker

budget rip rounds

yessir

[whole thistle]

Sks face murder ez

[somber rain]

last night i had a good run where i went barebones sks on factory

and i killed a pmc with a saiga and slugs

and then i traded with another pmc

we TRADED

SHOTS

the servers are so shit im still confused at how it happened

fuck this man

im out

[whole thistle]

Ftx slugs, big money

[cosmic tinsel]

why ftx slugs

[whole thistle]

I'm making fun of tiny loot

[cosmic tinsel]

ohhh fair lol

[hard tangle]

does anybody know the spawn rate of Led x inside ultra med room on interchange ?? i have opened a total of 52 times now and have only ever got 2 aphthroscopes and around 10 defibrillators ????? do Led x even spawn in there ?

[whole thistle]

Nobody knows any spawn chances, but I've heard a lot of people having issues with ultra med

[shadow fiber]

does gluhar kill you if you have 2.00 scav karma

[lusty glacier]

whats the difference?

[upper gorge]

One's folded down, the other is up

[whole thistle]

Right click and click turn on or turn off

[wheat summit]

does offline mode save your labs card?

[unreal horizon]

Yeah

[cosmic tinsel]

this is the best way to learn the layout

[humble wing]

Is there a best helmet overall

[cosmic tinsel]

no

[humble wing]

Or is it either head eyes or no hearing

[cosmic tinsel]

pretty much

theres sort of 3 archetypes: solving for safety, safety+hearing, or price

if you go with the first, you're looking at altyn/maska/welding mask, with extremely limited view and a faceshield that will protect you from some mid-high bullets

[humble wing]

Does bt go through altyn?

[cosmic tinsel]

safety + hearing is sort of "do the best you can do with comtacs", and thats gonna be an exfil, a fast MT, etc

[cosmic tinsel]

1.2% of the time, yes** THIS INFORMATION WAS INITIALLY INCORRECT, MY APOLOGIES

because the first two categories dont make a huge difference for the ammos that matter, some players, like me, solve for price. your options here are the TK Fast MT + optional condors, or the shattered mask

in these situations, you're conceding that absorption saving your life is not worth the expense of a nicer helmet, and instead are focusing exclusively on the ricochet chance of the helmets

[fervent swift]

Why is this shit? it's projectile based, not hitscan

One of the worst features in pubg was the lack of trading

[cosmic tinsel]

oh frick i grabbed the wrong bt

thank you for catching this

[fervent swift]

Kill the guy first? his awm shot to your face is now air

[humble wing]

i was gonna say cause i shot a mf in the head 20 fuckin times he didnt flinch

[whole thistle]

Mosin lol

[cosmic tinsel]

yep

[humble wing]

What anout igolnic?

[finite delta]

i placed all 4 markers in a quest, then died. quest isnt finished, and says i need to survive and extract location. what do i do?

[cosmic tinsel]

go back to that map and get out

[whole thistle]

Go to any location then survive and extract

[finite delta]

ok ty

it was customs

[cosmic tinsel]

the app zap is using is called battle buddy, and you should consider installing it to see how armor works

[humble wing]

will do

[steep arrow]

can someone help me with bad rep evidence? i dont have the key for it and rng isnt on my side on this it seems

[fervent swift]

Just use the most expensive ammo all the time

[finite delta]

any location?

can i do factory?

[cosmic tinsel]

same map you had before

[finite delta]

okey

[whole thistle]

Did they change it to that?

[cosmic tinsel]

i... have never tried the other way because it feels unreasonable

[finite delta]

oh ok i do factory then

[whole thistle]

after I did zhivchik on woods I just played customs and it worked lol

[cosmic tinsel]

holy crap

ok

fair enough

[whole thistle]

As as it's not a run through

[cosmic tinsel]

im learnding

[finite delta]

what

oh it cant be run through?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[finite delta]

ugh

[whole thistle]

Actually ik for some it can be but for some it cant

What quest is it

[finite delta]

bp depot

[whole thistle]

||bp depot||

Fuck

Idk how to use the bot let me use google

[cosmic tinsel]

man there was someone who used to hang out here that used to do that all the time. someone would recommend BT as a good starting ammo and he'd go "BS is better. no point not using it"

[unreal horizon]

lmao

[near moss]

how can i lose -rep

[whole thistle]

It doesn't say required survived status on the wiki page @finite delta

[whole thistle]

Coop or car extracts and doing good things as a scav

[near moss]

what are good things as scav?

[unreal horizon]

Not being a dick to other scavs

[whole thistle]

Killing bad scavs and pmcs who've killed scavs

[near moss]

and car drives rep goes down

[whole thistle]

What

[near moss]

first you get 0.25 then 0.16 0.08

[whole thistle]

Yeah

Have you used it?

[near moss]

only in interghange

[whole thistle]

It's per map btw

But yeah you can still go get some from it lol

[finite delta]

it does though

[near moss]

i hope i can lsoe the - rep lol

[finite delta]

because i did all 4

[slim frigate]

what do i need hand drills and analog thermometers for?

[cosmic tinsel]

hideout stuff!

[whole thistle]

I know im saying you need to get out it just doesn't need to be a "Survived"

It can be a run through

[slim frigate]

do i need it early or can I sell it?

[cosmic tinsel]

depends on how quickly you wanna rush hideout

[fervent swift]

lmao

[finite delta]

ahhhhhh

ok

ty

[analog fulcrum]

Is it actually possible to get tagged and cursed when geared? Sounds usefull for killing scavs quests :p

[whole thistle]

If you go in with no gun and have someone drop you one

[cosmic tinsel]

or just a pistol

and no armor

[analog fulcrum]

but, Ive been told if atleast 1 person is geared in team, then no one gets cursed

unless were not in team

[cosmic tinsel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1s9WcJlmE4

voxe did a bunch of testing

[analog fulcrum]

dats a year old, remember there being changes to the tagged and cursed system, so Im not surprised if info on dat video is outdated

[unique steeple]

What’s tagged and cursed

Never tried it

[analog fulcrum]

a tag dats get put on hatchlings, all scavs see the tagged person through walls and rush to kill him

[cosmic tinsel]

you may be right - but can you show me evidence that tagged and cursed was modified, and more recent data?

ive seen teammates rushed when they were naked

so i think what you were told was incorrect

[analog fulcrum]

I just remember people talking about certain stealth changes about the tagged and cursed system a few months ago, changes that reduced the auto aggro range, changes to what equipment is required to avoid it. Could been false, but BGS is known to sneak in small changes without announching, so you never know

[snow sandal]

Does anyone know if the intelligence payment at the scav case is often worth it?

[grim night]

If you go into the raid without a rig, or without a primary gun. You will get tagged n cursed

[snow sandal]

moonshines ripped me off most time

[cosmic tinsel]

agreed

[cosmic tinsel]

last testing i saw showed they all average profitable, but 85k is the most profitable

[snow sandal]

ok cheers dude

[analog fulcrum]

Hmm, what if ur rig and wep is inside backpack :P?

[crude breach]

Anyone from eu wanna run
im level 10

[cosmic tinsel]

if only there was some kind of video that tested it

😉

[analog fulcrum]

yeh, video, dat might be outdated, I was curious if people have more recent testing info, but I guess not

[versed vigil]

legit need help with SBIH, I've been at it in customs, after 10 raids or so, 1 kill.

most recommended spots have no traffic

I have 1/3 in both customs and shoreline, customs was luck, shoreline was ironsight shot with stock AKM

can someone recommend a really good guide or resource so I can get started

[whole thistle]

I got 2/3 on shoreline without trying lol

One was with a ump

[cosmic tinsel]

everything might be outdated

how can we know anything about tarkov if we're worried about stale data

we use the best data available, which is this, to my knowledge

theres no reason to assume its wrong unless you have proof imo

[viral veldt]

is it better to sell a gun and all it’s attachments separately or the gun with all the attachments on?

[cosmic tinsel]

you want to sell as much of the gun as you can to mechanic

attached or not makes no difference

[whole thistle]

With attachments unless you have flea

[cosmic tinsel]

^

[whole thistle]

[cosmic tinsel]

flea gets first pick

then mech

then fence

[strong turtle]

ok scav raid over i am trying to move items from stash to sorting table so i can re-arange .... is there a short-cut button click i cant figure it out

i dont want to drag and drop

[whole thistle]

There is no shortcut for sorting table

[strong turtle]

got it

[whole thistle]

Be ctrl click moves to the stash

[strong turtle]

my stash is filling up quite a lot lol

yeah ctril click moves it to the stash i get that

[whole thistle]

Also make sure to put those backpacks inside each other to save space

[strong turtle]

but i need to move some things out so i can tetris better lol

[whole thistle]

And put stuff in those rigs

[strong turtle]

its all full

lol

[rocky needle]

@strong turtle SHIFT+left click will move to sorting table

[strong turtle]

thx

[whole thistle]

:0

[deep violet]

How much Fence- rep do I loose for killing e.g. Glukhar as a scav?

[strong turtle]

i got to buy that scav box or w.e

to have extra space in my inventory damn it

[cerulean apex]

stop hoarding... sell surplus

[rocky needle]

@deep violet .2 i think

[strong turtle]

idk what to sell lol

ill do it after this raid i gues

guess*

[whole thistle]

.25

My friend did it once so ik

[rocky needle]

tarkov market will show you price, what quests and barters items can be used for

[cerulean apex]

maaan hearing all thoe folks who lost 6 rep for killin a boss... ill never EVER shoot at1

[whole thistle]

That was a bug lol

[rocky needle]

but a lucky scav box is very helpful. i have 3 LOL

[cerulean apex]

@whole thistlescariest bug they have to date

[whole thistle]

Are you one of those trash collectors

[rocky needle]

id say one is a trash collector the other two im holding things to craft/barter

[cerulean apex]

soo not worth losing to a "bug"

[rocky needle]

my first wipe so im trying to learn what's best to make money ect

[deep violet]

@whole thistle Alright. Thanks.

[unique steeple]

do i need do have fir items to barter something with another player

[cosmic tinsel]

yes

[whole thistle]

Go to tarkov.guru hideout profit

[honest gulch]

weiner

[cosmic tinsel]

if not, you could effectively invalidate the FiR only nature of the flea

[cerulean apex]

sigh... just spent 75k euro... time to save up another 50k euro.. this game is pretty good at keeping a person broke lmao

[unique steeple]

wdym

[somber rain]

can you fit a PSO scope on an op-sks?

[whole thistle]

Yeah just flea stuff in general, including flea barters

[rocky needle]

@whole thistle that websote came in super clutch thanks.

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[somber rain]

how

[whole thistle]

OP-SKS with dovetail

[near moss]

is this worth it?

[cosmic tinsel]

say i wanted to sell a non FiR GPU on flea, because its worth more there. instead of listing it, I could look for people bartering for GPUs and get most of the value out of it

[somber rain]

thanks

[whole thistle]

No since you can't buy mags

[near moss]

ok thanks

[unique steeple]

ait

[rocky needle]

@cosmic tinsel cant trade/sell items not FIR on flea

[near moss]

i think this is worth it?

[cosmic tinsel]

exactly

[whole thistle]

Nah

Trash pistol

[unique steeple]

wait, so if i have a non fir gpu can i barter it for example a ledx on the flea

[cosmic tinsel]

no

because if you could, that would break the flea

is my point

[unique steeple]

oh

i see

[cosmic tinsel]

even beyond those simple use cases, it could be used for all kinds of market abuse/RMT nonsense

[whole thistle]

You need something to be fir to do anything with it on the flea

[unique steeple]

ait ait

so all the ppl bartering something for thicc case

wassup with that

[cosmic tinsel]

you get one thicc case per wipe

from a quest

that counts as FiR

[unique steeple]

yeah

[cosmic tinsel]

so you effectively get one very expensive bullet that you can shoot at a high value item

[unique steeple]

so u can only do 1 thicc case barter

[cosmic tinsel]

i traded mine for a green card

[unique steeple]

yeah ait

my friend did the opposite

thicc for green

[cosmic tinsel]

yep

works well for both parties

seller gets to avoid market fee

i get a huge payday off a quest

[unique steeple]

theres still a fee right

just smaller

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

avoids like 90% of it

super high value stuff is better trading for than listing for cash

you list a red card for 50mil you'll pay 30mil in fees

(rough estimate)

[unique steeple]

is green the best keycard

or how do they work

and whys the yellow so chea

[whole thistle]

No

[cosmic tinsel]

they're effectively just keys to rooms in the lab

red is the most exensive, and has the highest loot behind it

but green is the fastest time to break even, followed by black/violet

[strong barn]

anyone know if the reshala/sanitar event is over today? :)

[cosmic tinsel]

yellow has no meaningful loot, and is used to disable an alarm that people mostly dont care about

[fresh fern]

how do u make good money in tarkov as a level 8 player?
