[merry dust]

cobra sight ps12b

[whole thistle]

Ps12 and a sight

[solid agate]

ok

[whole thistle]

Ps12b is kinda unnecessary

[solid agate]

is it ful auto or semi

[whole thistle]

Full

[hollow thorn]

Doesn't it borderline like

one shot?

[whole thistle]

Yes

[merry dust]

yup

[whole thistle]

It does 65 armor damage

It two shots everything and one shots most

[solid agate]

noice

no frontgaurd or suppseorr needs?

handgaurd

is recoil not bad

[whole thistle]

There is a suppressor but the gun sounds cool

[solid agate]

what about the front handgrip

[whole thistle]

Just anything

[meager burrow]

What are some of the best budget close rangge guns, i want to just grind Dorm Pvp and need a good gun for it

[whole thistle]

It's like an mdr

[solid agate]

oh ok

[meager burrow]

im thinking HK but idk

[solid agate]

i also have mdr and mhk

hk

[merry dust]

ash12

[vivid ember]

Colleagues pt 3 or Huntsman Path - Sadist? Colleagues seems very dumb but idk.

[whole thistle]

It has a lot of recoil on paper but 650 rof makes it not too bad

[whole thistle]

Sadist

[vivid ember]

just making sure, tysm

[solid agate]

there are branching quests?

like u can choose?

[vivid ember]

yes

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[solid agate]

which ones for who

[vivid ember]

many actually

[solid agate]

i know skier and prapor and therapist all hate sanitar

[whole thistle]

Chemical 4 is the earliest one

[solid agate]

or seomthign

i just did colleagues part 1

[vivid ember]

therapist likes sanitar actually

[whole thistle]

Jaeger not sanitar lol

[solid agate]

and i have not done chemical 1

oh i thouht they didnt like him

jaeger for sure

[vivid ember]

therapist shares the same ideals as him, helping ppl

[solid agate]

but my quests for sanitar have been pissing him off mainly

[vivid ember]

so if you decide to kill him for jeager you loose 0.02 rep

[whole thistle]

Sanitar helps people?

[vivid ember]

but therapists quest wants you to give a green and violet so fuck that

[vivid ember]

hes a scav doctor

[solid agate]

keycard?

[vivid ember]

yes

[solid agate]

tf

[whole thistle]

He gets scavs addicted to drugs

[solid agate]

who tf does that

[barren spruce]

Wait killing Skav bosses has negative rep?

[whole thistle]

He doesn't help them lol

[solid agate]

no wonder they got aimbot

[vivid ember]

blue and green mb*

[solid agate]

they are on crack

[vivid ember]

no

[whole thistle]

If you're a scav then yes

[vivid ember]

its a quest

well as a scav yes, pmc no

[solid agate]

guess ima have to kill him

[vivid ember]

unless you have a quest

murder him

[solid agate]

cuz i need higher jeager karma

[barren spruce]

I was about to say

[solid agate]

and i dont have spare keycards

wait

i think i forgot to turn off my generator

before i left for the week 2 days ago

also is it worth crafting a lab keycard and signal jammer for a rfid reader or something

in intel lvl 2

[vivid ember]

im not sure

[compact rune]

hi anyone know how to download tarkov to d drive help pls

[vivid ember]

launcher, online (below your username/icon), settings, scroll down for game directory. i believe that should be it.

[merry dust]

ps12b

[compact rune]

come into call real quick @vivid ember

[merry dust]

170 armor damage.

[vivid ember]

ok

[whole thistle]

57% of 102 is what the wiki says

[merry dust]

what armor tanks

ps12b

[whole thistle]

None it's just ps12 does more armor damage

It terrifies people more

[merry dust]

i think i blacked a slick

and did 320 normal

[whole thistle]

Yeah it would only take 2 shots lol

[merry dust]

fuck man

fuuuuck

[whole thistle]

ash 12 armor smashing power

[wary valley]

Go flea market

Probably ur best bet tbh

Shit can be highly unstable

And sometimes u can only see the profit when u craft immedia

[pure girder]

does anyone have a ultra key i can use? level 16

[tropic apex]

looking for some chill dudes lv 2, just started playing this wipe lv 70 veteran for 3 wipes with over 300+M each wipe

[stiff rampart]

anyone want to play with a level 5 legend with like 10 days of solid offline tarkov experience

i need a pocket watch or something but random looting and not getting immediately murdered are also things id be interested in

[burnt grail]

Is the 11sr card trash now with the dynamic loot in place?

[upbeat barn]

@stiff rampart i can play a few in just a second i if your still down

[stiff rampart]

ok no rush let me know

[viral gull]

im a level 5 with little pc experience, can i join? i need pointers'

[stiff rampart]

sure

i was being sarcastic about the legend part, i don't know much

[solid agate]

yea this guy sucks

[stiff rampart]

it's true

[meager burrow]

is this helmet good

i know its tier 1 base but idk with the slaap plate

[rough patio]

what is the best way to get that 1 gpu? playing for a month and never saw one and need it to finish quest

[rain tundra]

I know I'm later but necrus pharm sucks, yet it's worth like 800k

[quaint quarry]

As all other helmets, it's better than nothing @meager burrow

[rough patio]

should i go as low as hatchet sj6 intercharge runs?

[cosmic tinsel]

no

[rain tundra]

Unfold the mp7 stock

[rough patio]

if it was not the quest requirment i would not give a damn about gpu but cant push it forward without one

[rain tundra]

And no that helmet isn't really good

The slap plate won't help much

[potent crater]

what is the best thing to run on scav case

[cosmic tinsel]

85k for profit, moonshine for streamer items/big risk, intel for keys

[potent crater]

what about 1k?

or 7k?

are they just bad

[unborn flicker]

you think a red keycard would sell for 40 gpus?

[burnt grail]

generally yes just bad.

might get like 10 or 15k item from it but thats about it @potent crater

[solid agate]

hmm

[burnt grail]

The only ones really worth are the 85k, moonshine and intel folders

[solid agate]

should i buy all the jewelry for scav case/

to build it'\

i only have gold chains rn

[unborn flicker]

imo, im a gambler so I would buy it again

but fr idk if it's worth the like 2m investment

eventually you will get something good

[solid agate]

and i have no idea how to get gold rings and what not

[burnt grail]

Ive personally never had good luck with the scav case so i havent this wipe yet but 🤷 it sup to you if you like to gamble

[solid agate]

i mean im trying everything out this wioe

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, probably

if i had 40 gpus i'd do it

[solid agate]

if i get broke again ill just go back to scav grinding

[cosmic tinsel]

theres probably some ic rats sitting on 40 of em

[burnt grail]

@solid agate if you havent had it before then i would recommend giving it a shot. its cool

[solid agate]

i dont mind being broke this wipe if it means i can try everything out but how do u guys get the jewelry

[burnt grail]

i just dont get lucky with it after 3 wipes lol

[solid agate]

the jewelry is expensive tho

[burnt grail]

either find it or buy it from market

grind some money runs

[rough patio]

i saw them in safes mostly

[solid agate]

i dont know how to find anythig

[burnt grail]

or scav runs

[rough patio]

but otherwise just bought them

[solid agate]

ive only found gold chains

how much to buy everything for it?

im not at my pc rn

can someone do a quick search

[burnt grail]

uhh

its around a mil

i think 1.2 mil

[solid agate]

i have 5/8 gold chains

only 1.2m?

i thought it would be like 3m

[burnt grail]

i think

no

[solid agate]

hmm

[unborn flicker]

o

[solid agate]

1.2m is def worth

[unborn flicker]

must've went down, I remember paying like 2m for it

[solid agate]

i could get 1.2m in like a couple hours

[burnt grail]

not taht much. might be closer to 2 mil but its def not 3

[rain tundra]

Mostly cases

[solid agate]

i have 2.1m

rn from selling my 7 BTC

[rain tundra]

Rolers can be found from usec building on customs if you really want to grind

[solid agate]

yeah not really

[burnt grail]

ive never seen one there lol

[solid agate]

ive gotten one from interchange kiva

[burnt grail]

ive seen a couple streamers get one but ive never seen it

[merry dust]

pog pistol run

[rain tundra]

I've seen them a few times

But more commonly chains

[solid agate]

yeha sae

[burnt grail]

interchange use to be good for that before dynamic loot. kiba, extract room

[solid agate]

i have a bunch of chains

yeah

now it sucks

also is it kiva or kiba

[rain tundra]

Kiba

[burnt grail]

kiba arms

[mystic moth]

Can I get some advice on the proper or fastest way to do Ice Cream Cones?

[unborn flicker]

kill killa

[burnt grail]

craft them in lavatory

[unborn flicker]

that too

[solid agate]

whats ice cream cones quest

[mystic moth]

I haven't found a single KEK tho

[solid agate]

!wiki ice cream cones

[broken quail]

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

Escape from Tarkov Wiki

Ice cream cones

Ice cream cones is a Quest in Escape from Tarkov.

[burnt grail]

for a new player tho crafting them is way easier lmao

[rough patio]

now i realized after running 3 times on sj6, how many damn ppl are rushing the tech stores

[mystic moth]

I got a ton of regular tape

But no Kek

[solid agate]

yep

[burnt grail]

check tech crates, theres a lot on customs @mystic moth

the wooden crates that say technical crate in the top right

and toolboxes

[rough patio]

eh i wish that quest didnt needed fir for it

[solid agate]

oh yeah

i just crafted those

[mystic moth]

That's all I do all day all night

Filled up half my Scavbox

[rough patio]

gonna just craft it

[mystic moth]

No KEK

[solid agate]

u can buy the 4 6l23

[mystic moth]

Pop kek

[merry dust]

oli

[burnt grail]

still no kek?

[merry dust]

go oli

[solid agate]

i find kek a lot

[burnt grail]

hmm......

[rough patio]

cause i hate that rush naked to loot playstyle

[solid agate]

reserve scav

i find like 5 a raid

[rough patio]

and pray

[unborn flicker]

wym, dont you like naked rats shoving all the good loot in their ass so when you kill them you get nothinig?

[solid agate]

sometimes its useful for quests

[rough patio]

tbf they could just lock high quality loot out of case

[unborn flicker]

i did hear someone talking about not letting people put stuff into their secure containers

so you can bring in meds/keys etc

but cant put loot in

[rough patio]

if they make secure container bigger and do that rule

i would love it

[pure girder]

has anyone got a spare ultra

[unborn flicker]

ultra med?

[pure girder]

yeh

[unborn flicker]

what u need it for

[burnt grail]

yeah those are just lying around everywhere

[unborn flicker]

shits like 1.2m lmao

[pure girder]

i want to grind it out for a bit n give it back

i'm level 17 no flea

[rough patio]

oh and i did that only for some factory quest when i was total newbie staring at mechanic toolbox quest

now i always bring minimal gear

vpo with apm ammo

is wonderfull budget weapon

[unborn flicker]

boltie?

[mystic moth]

Ok one more question

[rain tundra]

Ultra is a expensive key, it's unlikely anyone will let you borrow it

[rough patio]

aye

[mystic moth]

What the fuck is this shit

[unborn flicker]

MY MAN

[mystic moth]

It happens 100 times a day, but only within a certain timeframe

[rough patio]

got some chads with it by playing slow

[mystic moth]

Then I get 100 games with none of it

[rain tundra]

Especially since they probably don't know you

[burnt grail]

your ping got too high

[mystic moth]

Then it comes up again

With perfect internet

No, it didn't.

[burnt grail]

are you sure?

[mystic moth]

100 million percent.

[burnt grail]

thats the biggest reason for connection issues

[mystic moth]

To nearest Google server

[pure girder]

anyone have a spare ultra key

[burnt grail]

are you on wifi?

[rain tundra]

I don't even let people I've known for a while use my expensive keys lmao

[mystic moth]

DURING the dc

I checked a lot

Cus I knew it would happen again

My ping to the nearest server is roughly 30ms

[rain tundra]

Just run with someone who had an ultra key @pure girder

[burnt grail]

are you on wifi?

[mystic moth]

No, I'm not.

I'd rather die.

[burnt grail]

hmm

lmfao

[rain tundra]

No one's gonna give you an ultra key without knowing you really well lol

[mystic moth]

I just really hate wifi.

I'm on fiber, with an ethernet cable to my PC

And a really good rig

With no problems other than this...

[burnt grail]

its trash for gaming but that is an issue i had before i got better internet

ok so its not your end then 🤣 no shot

gotta be something with the servers then. maybe if its at a certain time every day or most days, your servers you are on get more traffic ?

[mystic moth]

That seems to be the case.

It's always this time

Around midnight, til 2am

Otherwise, 0 issues for HOUUUURS

[solid agate]

akgonasd

[pure girder]

its like 1 in the morning

trying to get some raids solo

[rain tundra]

Ok then wait for it to be day

You aren't gonna be given an ultra key, or at least it's very doubtful

[burnt grail]

or maybe ask here someone who has it to run for a bit

ultra med is one of the best non-labs keys lol

[rain tundra]

He's saying it's late so no one's on

Because that's what I said he should do

[burnt grail]

even here?

oh ok

[rain tundra]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't give anyone my keys, even if I know them

Because you could just leave and never return it lol

[burnt grail]

true

Ill give my homies like

[solid agate]

but

were friends right?

[burnt grail]

bunkhouse key or quest keys like that

but like ultra med or emercom or anything like that nahh we can run it together lol

[rain tundra]

No

[solid agate]

lets change that

we can play saturday

[pure girder]

someone who has millions help out lol 😛

[solid agate]

i need some keys for quests

like the customs chief officer

[rain tundra]

Yea same. Once I finished using those quest keys I gave them away

[cosmic tinsel]

why do you need an ultra key? its junk now

[rain tundra]

But I'm not gonna give someone my ultra key

[solid agate]

do u have the key for prapor customs chief past life

[rain tundra]

I've only pulled one ledx since dynamic loot

[rain tundra]

Idk which one is it

[pure girder]

i like opening places

[rain tundra]

Idk you can try your luck with the e110 tape key

[cosmic tinsel]

loota cheaper places to open

lol

[rain tundra]

It's 42k

[cosmic tinsel]

NOT YOU

lol

[rain tundra]

E110 with tape. You can find ledx but idk how it is with dynamic loot

[potent crater]

hit goshan on idea side with a big bad for food lots of money made

[rain tundra]

Ik I was trying to give alternative options

[cosmic tinsel]

o ok

[rain tundra]

Necrus sucks

[humble wing]

why is this so expensive?

[burnt grail]

ive been hitting it with the punisher part 4 quest a lot. i havent seen one ledx in there. 2 golden stars in prolly 15-20 runs is pretty much it

in tape key

[humble wing]

doesent it just hold money?

[rain tundra]

Don't bother with that one

[rain tundra]

Yea idk I haven't opened it recently

[solid agate]

i just bought one for 960k

to upgrade med station

[pure girder]

what map is that for

[solid agate]

that way i can craft my own

and sell it back to hit ROI

[potent crater]

loot event

[rain tundra]

Shoreline

It's in resort

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah. people that need to hold a lot of money can afford to spend a lot on a money case

[potent crater]

well loot change

[cosmic tinsel]

i have 2 money cases, and ive seen people with a lot more than that

[solid agate]

gibme to prove it

[humble wing]

well i got one at the start of wipe from rb vo and i just checked the price and it went up by like 1 mil LMAO

is it worth the sell?

[solid agate]

its 1.5m rn

[rain tundra]

Hell just get every key for shoreline resort, I'm sure you will get something worthwhile

[solid agate]

which ones are good

[rain tundra]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[cosmic tinsel]

if you dont need it, sure

you can always buy another

[rain tundra]

301 ?

Idk

I rarely use my shoreline keys

[solid agate]

shoreline is like a worse woods

resorts basically the only reason i go there

[serene reef]

hold up

i have like all the "important" keys i found w/ my research

[potent crater]

bro i just wiped the factory lobby and died to the last guy in A TRADE BRO

[serene reef]

dunno how correct that is

[cosmic tinsel]

soft are you winnin daughter

[serene reef]

actually

[solid agate]

dad?

[serene reef]

dad

i am

like

the last 3 raids

are so

THICC

but also chill

[mystic moth]

Anyone know the guaranteed spawn off the top of their head?

[cosmic tinsel]

OOOOWEEE

[rough patio]

that scav that finds all the bodies wins

[mystic moth]

Which of these is guaranteed?

[cosmic tinsel]

un, northern un

[mystic moth]

God bless.

[cosmic tinsel]

bridge is always there if its not red

(someone could poach it)

[serene reef]

i know where he is

[mystic moth]

K, back in I go

[serene reef]

you only seem to get ruaf roadblock if you're near outskirts

its like they only wanted people to use outskirts

but then were like

if you spawn ON outskirts

what do you do?

[potent crater]

nope everyone is dead so the loot is lost forever because no pmc's to get into the raid

and because its factory i didnt insure

[serene reef]

xD

Dragon

think

[rough patio]

i mean isnt the zone still open for player scavs?

[serene reef]

player scavs

they wipe lobbies

[white prism]

Those spawns are to send you through contested areas to get out. So you have to be sneaky and use your survival items. If i gotta exfil outskirts i gotta usually go through the mill to avoid pmcs coming from mountain stash

[potent crater]

i killed everyone so i dont think anyone can join in

for scavs tehre has to be a pmc still in

[serene reef]

Are you sure about that xD?

[potent crater]

idk

@cosmic tinsel

as a scav does there have to be a pmc in?

I think there has to be

[serene reef]

If you think about it

It would be unfair to everyone

[potent crater]

how?

[serene reef]

Well you LOSE loot

Idk it doesn't sound like tarkov

To just close servers because all clients are out

Especially at cost of equality that all loot gets to be looted

Besides are you sure there wasn't a player scav already in game?

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

[serene reef]

I spawned at factory 17min left once

Wait actually?

[cosmic tinsel]

not all clients. allpmcs.

[serene reef]

Is that somehow confirmed?

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah, i traded in a 5 man brawl in factory

and got my hexgrid back

[serene reef]

Maybe nobody checked?

[cosmic tinsel]

nobody checked the 5 pmcs bodies in forklift spawn?

[serene reef]

Like it really sounds not like tarkov

[cosmic tinsel]

like, anecdotally, if you hang out as a pscav on factory

[serene reef]

Yeah

[cosmic tinsel]

you'll see that it gets dead

[serene reef]

I run through on factory

[cosmic tinsel]

at the same time you stop seeing pmcs

its extremely hard to prove, but my anecdotal evidence has me extremely confident that pscavs only spawn when pmcs still remain in server

[serene reef]

I WANNA ASK A HACKER

WITH WH

[cosmic tinsel]

it doesnt CLOSE the server when pmcs exfil,just lets the game cool off

yeah, if you ever find out proof one way or the other i wanna know

[serene reef]

But yeah ig that makes sense

[cosmic tinsel]

but honestly getting my hexgrid back told me everything i needed to know

[serene reef]

But like what is the purpose of scavs then

[cosmic tinsel]

same as always?

[serene reef]

They're there to sweep items

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah

[serene reef]

Clean stuff

[cosmic tinsel]

you can still sweep

[serene reef]

So insurance isn't opp

Yeah but if all pmcs die and one extracts with 30min left

[cosmic tinsel]

unless the pmcs all die before scavs spawn, like in my case

[serene reef]

There will be no player scavs

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah

just rare that that happens

[whole thistle]

no

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

[serene reef]

ProofI?

[rough patio]

what if 1 player scav snucks in before last pmc dies/extract?

[whole thistle]

never heard anything about that

[serene reef]

They sneak in no more pscavs spawn

[cosmic tinsel]

do a 5 man lobby in factory with something nice on your body

kill everyone

kill yourself

you'll get your kit back

[serene reef]

Shit that's really a nice idea to test

[cosmic tinsel]

actually

factory 6 man now

when i got hex it was before the expansion

[whole thistle]

Meevo exposed

[cosmic tinsel]

CLASSIC MEEVO

[serene reef]

HECC DAD

What did they do

[serene reef]

oH

I thought the sceeenie was older lmao

I guess I'm too drama hungry after 3 raids of silence

XD

[cosmic tinsel]

i yelled at a nerd for callin therapist the rapist again

but i do that like, once a week

[rough patio]

oh so not many scavs = pmc gone and tons of scavs means pmc still lurking in

gotcha

[cosmic tinsel]

yeah

you'll see factory raids cool off

[serene reef]

So how do I keep spawning customs that late xD

[cosmic tinsel]

pmcs vibe til late

im a late customs viber

[serene reef]

People really be there with 10 min left lol?

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

they hidin and rattin and stash runnin

like, i cant prove it

other than what convinces me

[serene reef]

Yeah ofc it sounds logical

[rough patio]

kinda depends on map

[serene reef]

But still xD

[rough patio]

on woods its easy to get out on last 10m

if you are going for lots of spots

[bold kernel]

scavs hunt pistolings right?

[merry dust]

ye

[wide pike]

yes

[cosmic tinsel]

they have a chance to

[wide pike]

you need a rig or 2 mags

[bold kernel]

lol that explains alot

[wide pike]

🙂

[bold kernel]

when I was new I went into a raid on factory with only a pistol

[wide pike]

i did it a lot

[bold kernel]

two scavs instantly ran towards me

[wide pike]

like A LOT

[bold kernel]

and I killed them both

[wide pike]

yeah they bang you most of the time that early XD

[bold kernel]

wait so would this be a viable way to hunt scavs?

[rough patio]

yes its anty naked man mode

[cosmic tinsel]

ya

viable

[bold kernel]

nice

[rough patio]

scavs hates hatchlings

and good

[wide pike]

well if you carry a decent pistol and good armor then yes

actuall yno the armor negates it

[bold kernel]

it never seemed to happen after that

[wide pike]

you have to be op naked with a pistol lol

[bold kernel]

cause I started carrying the sling

and clothes and shit

is the grotch too expensive?

[wide pike]

if youre a good shot its worth it but once you tier up traders you can buy much better guns, peacekeeper in particular

i use the glock thats just my preference

[serene reef]

9x19 just sucks imo as caliber

[potent crater]

what

i love 9x19

[serene reef]

Leg meta sure

Shhh I gotta catch some zzz's

Nini everyone o/

[bold kernel]

seeya

ayo the dvd marked room?!?

[cosmic tinsel]

marked room on dvd

[bold kernel]

where do i find the loot marked room used to have

i feel like it is somewhere in factory

[torpid flume]

can you not convert dollars to rubles?

[cosmic tinsel]

not easily

you'll need a ton of dollars

hang onto em for now

[torpid flume]

how much is a ton?

[cosmic tinsel]

14.5 K

[torpid flume]

yikes

[cosmic tinsel]

plus another 25k if you want the air filtering upgrade to your hideout

[torpid flume]

and the 75k for solar panel...

[cosmic tinsel]

thats euro

[merry dust]

(E)ur(o) mom

[torpid flume]

oh yeah that

still..

[cosmic tinsel]

ye

solar panel not needed

i skipped it

[torpid flume]

jesus

[cosmic tinsel]

this one is kind of important

[torpid flume]

peacekeeper just wants money at that point lmao

and what's this

[cosmic tinsel]

its bugged

[torpid flume]

damn so that's why

[cosmic tinsel]

everyone's has crazy shit

[torpid flume]

lmao ok

[cosmic tinsel]

some dudes have like, 2 hours

like me, apparently

actually mine COULD be right

[undone sorrel]

lmao i dint know that does shit till i watched a video

[torpid flume]

the hell happened?

[bold kernel]

just tested it

scavs do rush you

also

is anyone else lagging out?

[torpid flume]

dude i disconnected again

what the hell

[meager burrow]

anyone hvae a super budget kit they take out to just try and get good profit raids with low PVP

and want to share it with me

[white prism]

Does anyone else notice how your scav timers and scav load in equipment changes depending on how many scavs you do in a row without doing pmc raids.

I reset and started doing this differently. I pretty much only do raids for quests right now. I primarily do scavs and sell, im level 9 and have 2 millionrub and a bunch of modded weapons with great ammo, and i use them occasionally, but i sell everything else.
So in doing this ive noticed a pattern with the scav raids

[unreal horizon]

timer will be mostly the same unless rep increases drastically

[white prism]

Ive had .01 rep lost since since i started again

[unreal horizon]

unless you mean time left in raid, which is completely random

[wide goblet]

what is the best ammo for the sks i can get at level 6

[unreal horizon]

ps gzh from prapor

[white prism]

If i do a pmc raid after a scav and die, the next scav raid is like hella close to exfil with enough time to loot and no pmcs left.

Do 4 scavs in a row load in a terrible spot early in raid

Im not complaining im just sensing a correlation

Surley theres some algorithm to try and get you not just scav only.

[unreal horizon]

don't think they care that much tbh

you don't progress on scav so its sorta detrimental doing it

[white prism]

Shit i got all the stuff i need from scavs and i level up hell fast in pmc raids.

[celest condor]

Had a sherpaling that had about 10 PMC raids. But had 28 MILLION rubles... Hundreds of scav raids.
Pretty sure they don't care if you do scav raids.

[cosmic tinsel]

with high scav karma you can pretty much exclusively scav

[pure mist]

what do you get

[cosmic tinsel]

mad hunnies

[pure mist]

look at me

im down horrendous

just like chrryz

[cosmic tinsel]

hahahaha

pretty much every scav i have

is a "good scav"

keycard like, 20% of the time

usually an armor

[pure mist]

i should've grind it during the event

[cosmic tinsel]

lots of svd

[potent crater]

best very budget factory gun?

ks?

[unreal horizon]

probably

or 8.5mm

[potent crater]

i have been running ks and its pretty spicy

[pure mist]

Saiga

Or mp7 fmj If you got the trader

[white prism]

I need two more lcds thats it!!

[pure mist]

Wait what

[potent crater]

i think for a task?

to get the rep for the trader?

idk tho

[pure girder]

does anyone have a spare kibba or ultra key for interchange i want to run some solo for tonight get cash and give it back the next day i'm level 16

[pure mist]

Yeah idk I’m getting confused

[unreal horizon]

you won't make any money because no flea market, and no loose loot

[pure mist]

Yes rooms are garbage

[cosmic tinsel]

feel like a scam tbh

[unreal horizon]

what makes you think that

[cosmic tinsel]

XD

[unreal horizon]

down tremendous

[potent crater]

yaaah i was like wait i think i just saw you....

[pure mist]

Don’t point it out

I wanna see some poor sack fall for it

Lol

[unreal fable]

Does anyone know if the total cost of all items in stash calculate correctly with scavs or no?

[slim mirage]

anyone wanna sherpa a levle 3 with 211 hs but no idea whats going on with the last 6 updates

[humble wing]

LES GO

FINALLY

[humble wing]

just get it yourself

[whole thistle]

Are you going for kapper?

[humble wing]

nope but hes gonna sit in the top of my stash for good luck

[whole thistle]

Bruh

[humble wing]

i mean i do have evasion

but lvl 71 is really high

[whole thistle]

Incredibly high

[trail mural]

is it normal for no one to sell the sicc pouch

[pure mist]

23 mil xp

[humble wing]

like im only lvl 33 and have 600 hours already just this wipe my first wipe that is

[whole thistle]

You literally can't find them in raid lol

[pure mist]

If I got more time and not so bored with tarkov it would be entirely possible to get kappa

[trail mural]

oh right my bad

[whole thistle]

Idk why

[trail mural]

same as nade launcher?

[whole thistle]

Yeah

[pure mist]

You could

Not anymore

[trail mural]

damn

[whole thistle]

Ik I'm saying idk why they changed it

[pure mist]

600 is menu time as well

[humble wing]

yeah thats my point

[worldly token]

Apparently they still spawning somewhere on the map

[pure mist]

What

Sicc?

Don’t think so

[worldly token]

Not cases in general

[humble wing]

is this calculated in flea value or what>?

[pure mist]

Marked room only

[pure mist]

Nope

Trader value I think

[humble wing]

mmm

[whole thistle]

Not every item can spawn in game

[worldly token]

Hmm I haven't been able to find a case inside the marked rooms since the dynamic loot

[humble wing]

also what is special weapons?

apparently ive found 2

but idk what that mean

s

[whole thistle]

Idk

[worldly token]

And I'm working on my 3rd set of keys, feels like should have found something by now

[pure mist]

Also weapon case and few other case don’t spawn

[whole thistle]

In 3 runs I got an ammo case and med case

[pure mist]

Dynamic loot fucked it

But idk if they change marked room back yet

[worldly token]

All I find are fucking cheap guns lol

Maybe a chain here and there

[mystic moth]

"Oh look it's a scav"

Disconnected from servers.

HAH CLASSIC

This fucking game I swear to god

[pure girder]

does anyone have spare kibba keys or ultra med i can use for the night level 16

[worldly token]

Ranger plz stop spaming...

[hot plinth]

i dont think anyone is just gonna give one to you man , people will probably run you through it ....

i just dont see with how many times you have asked anyone wants to just give it up, maybe asking someone to run with you is better?

[fathom ocean]

I gotchu

You have to give me 3 mill tho

[worldly token]

Man if we just asking for stuff someone wanna drop me some thermite

[fathom ocean]

Yeah for 1 mill I gotchu

[inner mountain]

tons of thermite on interchange

[worldly token]

Yeah I know.... but the rng gods hate me

[supple prawn]

is it more worth scav running factory every cooldown or going to a loot map like interchange or reserve?

[worldly token]

Factory is the easiest free money, reserve u hit the underground a might get some nice raider loot

[keen stream]

I do factory runs as my rep is high, and there is an opportunity cost while spending a lot of time inside scav runs

[supple prawn]

thats what i was thinking

[keen stream]

Is your rep like 0?

[supple prawn]

im somewhat close to 3, maybe 2.8 or sumthin

id have to check

[keen stream]

Nice!

[supple prawn]

i didnt take full advantage of the event lol

[keen stream]

Hey 3 isn’t bad. You have more to gain from car extracts? But yeah reserve raider bodies are good, interchange stashes are good. I do the factory strategy personally though

Basically a free load out worth of gear and .01 rep in between raids.

And you start getting access cards pretty often above 4.0 ime

[potent crater]

I JUST FUCKING TRADED AGAIn

IM LITERALLY ABOUT TO FLIP A TABLE DUDE

KS-23M WITH SHRAP 10 KEEPS LEADING TO TRADES

AAAAAAAAA

[keen stream]

You auto pick server or do you choose the ones closest to you? @potent crater

It’s a huge, measurable difference

[potent crater]

picked entirely across us

[keen stream]

Yeah when I’m playing solo I manually pick the best 2-3 servers

[potent crater]

ok

will do

[worldly token]

St Luis is my favorite

[keen stream]

Sometimes the raids are a bit quieter but I almost never desync die when doing that

When I play with a group in different spots of the country, there’s a lot of desync for all of us as it just puts us somewhere in the middle.

Sorry about your death tho

[potent crater]

ok the guy i traded with friend requested me and just said hahahaha we traded and i friended him on disc :)

[celest condor]

@potent crater Just spitballing, but I wonder if you are almost killing them and then bleeding finishes them off

most likely not of course, but just a thought

[bold kernel]

should I sell or usa killa's armor?

[winter nimbus]

haha gotta love head,eyes hackers

[worldly token]

They aren't that common, u sure u just didn't get sniped

[viral gull]

How do you pick your servers and how do you know what’s a good one or not?

[winter nimbus]

Nah haha i was moving and the moment i left i got head,eyes

left cover that is

[keen stream]

In the launcher, there's a "change servers" button at the bottom. I pick the ones with the lowest ping and reasonable matching time, those are what I consider the "Good ones"

[worldly token]

A player or scav?

[winter nimbus]

Player

[worldly token]

Sounds like u got sniped

[keen stream]

We don't have enough context to make a determination either way imo 😄

[worldly token]

One of my buddies whenever he dies ^^ fucking hackers, no way a fair player would of beat me

[keen stream]

One of the things I love about this game is that there's so much I still have to learn. Things that I can't explain other than "hacker" often have real explanations that I discover later on watching streamers or gameplay footage. Like crazy flanks falling through roofs that I never would've thought of, super narrow angles where I can't see them but they can see me, etc

Reserve is great for those

Lots of crazy plays can be made all over the map

[worldly token]

Yup, buddy of mine jumped off a roof onto the bunker doors down on a team of 3 wiped them all out

Not the bunker doors but on of the garage doors

[white prism]

Anybody spend alot if time optimizing this game graphically?

[whole thistle]

Yeah the devs

[white prism]

Sick burn

[limber oyster]

Any fellers willing to help me get shortage done? NA East

[vivid bluff]

can anybody post a compact mount from skier level 2 need it for gunsmith

[dry dust]

hello ppl

[crisp nest]

no one has it to post

you caant buy and post

[unreal fable]

where military battery

[crisp nest]

use the wiki

[unreal fable]

dynamic tho

I'll try my best with the tanks on reserve

[glad flint]

@unreal fable they can be in the garages on the knight buildings. Around tanks and inside rb-st. They also spawn under the k buildings on shelves

[somber rain]

yall

my computer is almost fixed

and i can go back to bombarding yall with questions

[unreal fable]

Thx man

[hallow island]

im a thurrow enjoyer of the m590 with a flashlight and no sight

with magnum and a penis helmet to accommodate it

[ancient shuttle]

Ok I'm level 5 right now and I have a damaged hard drive. Should I save it for later use in my hideout, trade is to PK for a backpack, or sell it

[merry dust]

Your choice

what’s the backpack

and those are fairly common

[ancient shuttle]

you get an MBSS from Peacekeeper for it

I'm thinking against the backpack tbh

I'll prolly sell it for now

[merry dust]

backpacks worth more I think

11k mbss

Vs 5k therapist

[ancient shuttle]

oh true. I'll barter then sell. and is the director's key any good usually?

[merry dust]

Hold

Mbss sells for less to ragman

If you want money go to therapist

[ancient shuttle]

ok

[merry dust]

you want backpack go pk

[merry dust]

Directors is good

Intel spawn safe 3 pc 1 gym bag

[hallow island]

decent loot, and used for a task

[ancient shuttle]

ok ok

thanks guys

[leaden schooner]

i have found out 4:3 didnt do anything im still trash at the game

[hallow island]

well did ur fps get better

[vernal wave]

anyone tryna run a few raids

[worldly token]

Trimg to figure out how I got sniped through abunch of concrete lol

[thorny jetty]

good gaming chair?

[worldly token]

Was hiding behind the concrete up at Silo, he first shot hit the wall 2nd shot head shot, I wasn't moving crouched so he couldn't see me he just started shooting at the concrete for no fuxking reason

[thorny jetty]

peak game sense

[worldly token]

If he was shooting from inside of silo I would say oh well, but he wasn't, there's no shots from there though, his first shot hit the shed 15m away he 2nd shot was dead on, doesn't make sense, and he was shooting from behind me

[thorny jetty]

i mean could be dumb luck

[worldly token]

Imm just run go offline so I can screenshot it

[thorny jetty]

fair

[worldly token]

Actually imma say it was my fault

you can 100% see through that on the other side

[leaden schooner]

no

[leaden schooner]

YES

[leaden schooner]

or honestly i think by a few

[polar scroll]

this my first wipe, how bad was extract camping last wipe, cuz ive never ever had it happen before. just curious

[bronze laurel]

it's not as bad as people make it out to be

i've had 2 camps this whole wipe

last wipe maybe 5-10

[soft topaz]

is there a 3rd party site i could get the game?

[nocturne phoenix]

hey i found an S-8 machete and im getting conflicting messages on the price some say 2+ mil other 50k and there are none on flea market so i cannot see for myself

anyone know the actual price

[buoyant mason]

I think, if I remember correctly BSG was denying people the keys at one point and telling people not to use a reseller, could be wrong

[soft topaz]

ive been trying to get the game on their website but nothing i do will work. it always gives me cant buy now try again later or contact sup

[buoyant mason]

I’d personally avoid resellers, like I say I could be making it up and it was never the case but I’d rather be safe with it, it’s not a cheap game, maybe see what support say?

[soft topaz]

they dont asnswer is the problem. reseller is like the last option

[buoyant mason]

Damn, that’s a shame man sorry to hear it 💔

[leaden schooner]

tarkov is a really expensive game

so i dont blame him

[buoyant mason]

Yup, costs a fair amount of £££

[leaden schooner]

but worth every euro

[polar scroll]

use a vpn. it worked for me

just make sure u buy the correct region

[onyx lotus]

any chance for a help on prepor's bronze watch quest ? after I pick it up and I try to avoid any contact I always die on PMCs hunting me

LVL 7 currently

[bronze laurel]

eu or na?

[leaden schooner]

where do you find the key for it?

[onyx lotus]

Eu

[bronze laurel]

i can join for a run

[leaden schooner]

for the truck of coutse

[onyx lotus]

Dorms @leaden schooner

Check some youtube guides on it, pretty sraight forward

[leaden schooner]

course

dorms

[bronze laurel]

that's the machinery key i think. You get it from dorms

[leaden schooner]

my worst enenmy i always shit myself but thank you

hate being at dorms alone

so fucking scary

[onyx lotus]

Go on a scav run

[leaden schooner]

wait you can scav run it???

[onyx lotus]

And hope that nobody looted that key before you hit that place, and try to escape

[leaden schooner]

no problemo then

[onyx lotus]

Only the key can be looted from what I know, the watch itself is on PMC

[bronze laurel]

yea that is correct

and rarely does anyone loot that key this late into wipe

[leaden schooner]

true true

me to both of yall

[dreamy cobalt]

do you still get punish from scav kill boss?

[bronze laurel]

lmao who camps big red office door with magnum buck

byebye hexgrid and pimped out mutant

atleast ricks got out tho so worth it^^

[onyx lotus]

haha yeah ! thanks a lot buddy ! sorry to ditch you right after that 😍

[hallow island]

scammed

[graceful flax]

Hey all! I have a question, where can you find Wd40? I only got one since I started the game and cant seem to find anymore 😦

[bronze laurel]

if you go to interchange you should be able to find a bunch of it in OLI. Toolboxes is another source

[graceful flax]

Alright thanks alot! 🙂

Thats because its the last ingredient to upgrade my stash space ^^'

Oh and another thing, where do you mostly find Green Gunpowder?

[hallow island]

is anything useless in this

tired of having healing laying around everywhere

(almost everything is fir)

of the cars

[onyx lotus]

Check for the tarkov wiki for the stems and the opti if needed for a quest i think

[bronze laurel]

sportbags for instance, all over the place more or less

[onyx lotus]

I know peacekeeper has a quest called samples and it has a bunch of stems to handover

[graceful flax]

Okay thanks for the great help Pirate!

[viscid geyser]

is there a way to fix my game? everytime i turn in a quest i cannot collect the rewards till i restart my game then once i collect them i have to restart again to be able to accept the new quests

like i can only accept 1 quest at a time then i have to restart to accept the other quest

[hallow island]

reinstall ur game or verify ur files

[viscid geyser]

did both

still didnt fix

[hallow island]

sounds like a skill issue then

[viscid geyser]

started happening 2 weeks ago

and when i go to collect rewards i get infinte loading items

[hallow island]

never heard of this happening before

[viscid geyser]

whats the program you guys use to record clips?

[narrow gull]

shadowplay usually

[hallow island]

shadowplay for nvidia, amd relive for amd

[viscid geyser]

how do you bring up shadow play?

its alt plus something

[hallow island]

alt+z

[viscid geyser]

i forget

ok thank u

ill record a video of it happening

[haughty storm]

Guides for what keys I bring to shoreline?

[viscid geyser]

i sent a bug report but idk how long those take to get answered

[narrow gull]

bug report will probably not get answered
you need to open a ticket with support

[plucky ravine]

think pestily might have a good video on that

[haughty storm]

Gotcha. Thanks man

[surreal wedge]

My stash is full and idk what to prioritize selling. Is there any resource I can look up to help me with that?

[shy citrus]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Quests?file=QuestItemRequirements.png

[surreal wedge]

Thanks man

[slow sleet]

[viscid geyser]

https://youtu.be/d6y0_AVgMbE

@hallow island^

[shy citrus]
