well too late for that
Idk if it's worrg
Why sometimes SCAV bot shoots me when i'm a SCAV too ? Just did 10 games with friendly bots and now i started one game, did not shot a single bullet and got killed by a SCAV bot ?
We're they the undercover scavs?
what's your rep at
-5,50
Low scav ?
I was -5,8 when they were friendly
i don't know why but -5.5 they shoot on sight
I went to -5,8 to -5,3, never got any problems
And this game they just decided to shoot me so i thought they were traitors but i got back up to -5,5
Alright so there is an unknow factor that makes you get shooted at -5,5 but not at -5,8 and -5,3 xD Whatever 😂
Thanks dude 🙂
just don;t be a bad scav lol
I'm trying very hard but i learned the SCAV rep after 150h of game so yeah it's a bit late
is it worth it to kill a boss scav for the like -5 dep
rep
even though it’s not likely to happen
if you join the community sooner you'd know lol
it was a big hit before and at the start of the wipe
Are 104 and 204 safes on 3 story?
114 and 214 too?
Nvm i just checked them on wiki
hey, so i've just bought tarkov and i was wondering if someone wants to play with me later today and teach me a couple of things i need to know, i'm EU
Are you NA?
Because my friend told me he saw you and his name was also big floppa
I am gonna be on in 3 - 4 days
ah, rip i'm EU
Oof
We could try playing still because depending on where in eu you are we might not have too bad of lag
ye sure
We could try areas more east in na and areas more west in eu
There is not safe first floor of 3 story
Also i would reccomend putting your servers in yout nickname
None st all?
None
There are 2 safe in 3 story dorms
Not in 2
Both second floor
Yall need a stm in your life
How do you tell difference from scavs vs raiders?
yeah will it consume my keycard tho
?
they look the same to me and a come up to me friendly at first, only to pop me in the head 5s later
when i go to labs offline mode
Nope
aaah rahh man
if you kill a whole army you need to kill another one
keep running into squads, almost wiping them and the last one is just crabbing
fuck off
pussies
4 altyn mutant men vs 1 vss sp6 enjoyer
wtf
these guys use laser weapons?
medved
all this for one guy
i used the 45 mags
what is the survival lighter used for
barter
can you find more of them later on?
is it needed for kappa i dont remember
what is kappa
its the biggest secure container in the game you can get it after you do a mission for the fence gathering all these streamer items and stuff
you can now do it after you hit level 62
its like 9 slots isnt it
the last 9 guys i have killed have been bear and i need 1 usec kill for friend from the west
3x4 so 12
ah
the gamma is 9
my mouse cursor is in the middle of my screen ingame
what if tarkov turned into a zombie game
tg labs fucked up and they couldnt contain zombies
mmh
head eyes
real nice
mmmm
i wouldnt survive in labs
i keep trying
Idk floppa
someone help me, my cursor is in the middle of my screen. And it effects ads
glukar
i restarted my game and still the same
fuck man hahaha
9 min queue to factory just to run into tagilla in the first 20 seconds
absolutely smashed me
tagilla needs rework
it took me 10 grizzly slugs to kill him and he almost killed me
you are using grizzly slugs
idk what to use lmao
i just got flea market so now i can buy anything
im mostly gonna use it for upgrades
yeah
grizzly slugs are not good unless you hit tagilla all in the stomach
i dont even use my hiedout at all 😭
ill show you my video lol
what
yeah hes just bad
and sometimes factory says easy instead of hard
so noobs get tricked by tagilla and he steals their armor
why would tagilla need a paca
rip
i still use zhuk-3s
just so easy and cheap to use
he likes to have full storage with guns and armor he doesnt use
buy it for 0 durability from fence or flea
and repair it
its 40k for a t3 armor
pretty good
WTF
can i yoink his shit?
like 6 scavs spawned on parking gate
lmao
and picked me out of the world
break into his hideout
even though i killed tagilla some duo came and swiped his stuff
and i only killed one of them
i dont play labs
yeah i usually dont too but 3 kcs
because i dont have the money 😎
im new to labs, havent played it since you didnt need key cards
i dont buy keycards
i mean that each raid on labs is like 400-500k
scavs spawn with keycards
that is if you have good scav karma
labs is expensive but worth
200k with therapist 4
Ezz
How much did they go up
idk
Jesus
im looking at the tarkov market rn
labs is prolly my fav map i just dont play it
thats what it says
better than interchange
Damn I’ll just sell my fir cards and buy new ones
these ammos any good
absolutely not
Not really
bs ammo
what can i get
or bt i think
do you have flea detergent?
nopr
Yeah igolnik as best and then like bt/bs
best you can do is PS
Hahaha
PS GS?
yep
Yeah but it’s pretty bad
okay
Ps has a nice fragment chance
where do i get ps gs
Prapor probably idk tho
noe
oh fuck you might not have it yet
go to fence
see if he has any
idk if you completed the task so you can buy it from prapor
no
did you do delivery from the past yet?
What task is it?
delivery from the past unlocks ps gs
delivery from past
from prapor
what lvl @dusky lotus
10
first wipe i guess
mhm
its like prapors third task
i need to adios
do u have machinery key
and i dont wanna kill a fucking raider with 30 bullets
yuo
have it on my pouch
because i tried to do it a couple times
what
use a map bro
i do
or guide
bro
assfucking
To get key
he said he got it
Machinery key spawn
Oh ok
i confused with therapist task
Pain
GIVE ME 1 USEC
Hahahahhahaa
lol
detergent
just watch a video on how to get it
or ill help you
but i dont have a mic
lol okay
Watch piranhas guide on it
yeah i believe i did the woods jaeger mission with it
just trying to learn the game this wipe
so watch guides or accept help
its not easy playing solo unless you watch guides or use mapgenie
well enjoy then
Check wiki, you need to use that key to unlock the place the watch is in
Never try to figure quests out on your own it's impossible lol
lfg 14 new to game level 8 need someone to help with map im good with everything cause i used to play for like 2 wipes but quit just came back
with maps
its alright
Look it up and find where it is lol
mmyeah
dont bother with him, let time be wasted. He will learn.
yeah first wipe
the missions will only get worse. Finding this bronze watch is easier than the missions you gotta find in woods
so when you get to that point use a map or suffer
"obtain the documents in the dorms" lmao
obvious
obvious you like wasting your own time, but its not mine so oh well
i dont waste my time
dbal-pl tactical laser any good?
Lasers in general are pretty bad
what?
If it has a flashlight mode to switch to then it's good lol
They give you away and barely help
laser increases hipfire accuracy, only turn on when you need it
laser doesnt help when adsing
Just learn where the gun points
idk how can u say that they are bad
and thats about it, but flashlights serve the same purpose
flashlights and lasers both increase hipfire accuracy
Because I don't need them to know where my gun is pointing lol
flashlight are supposed to blind the enemy but im not sure how efficient are they
I use a flashlight instead to blind the people I'm fighting
blind and increase accuracy
i guess there is logic in that
They do a really good job at blinding people
x400?
Yeah
ok
A tiny flashlight in full sunlight blinds the same amount as a floodlight in the dark it's weird
for best results use 5 flashlights and lasers
sure sure
Lmao stfu
i shall buy 6 flashlights
i at least use two flashlights
I ran 7 once
2 flashlights for real?
yeah i have one on my left and right attachment
2 flashlights is okay 5 was overkill lol
any ideas as to how my buddy just got charged a million ruppies for insurance? We died really quickly and can't really veryify if he accidently brought anything weird, but i can't find anything that costs that much to insure
anotha one
we also checked to make sure he didn't accidently list anything on the marketplace for a ludicrous amount of money
so it wasn't a flea fee
did he insure his docs case or something
it can cost a lot to insure the docs case + all the keys
Pestily made a vid where he had like 6 lights on a gun
Blinding assault
Too many lights makes anything you look at super bright and hard to see
why not
U saying u had 13 min and couldn’t extract
Rip
Didn't read that I just saw red
that took approx 500k
wanna play
?
good enoug?
Take a backpack
Also that is the most juiced out bronze watcher I've ever seen jesus
@merry dust look at this shit
for labs
Why is that key in your container lmao
idk forgot
Later
No it's a decent helmet
i think since hes going geared might as well get a faceshield helmet
hey, so i've just bought tarkov and i was wondering if someone wants to play with me later today and teach me a couple of things i need to know, i'm EU
decent for getting your head blown uo
!sherpahub
lol
??
i know but its gonna take a while for them to respond
Idk how long they take I've never used them
since there is a ticket system and all
does eyewear reveal my location in day also? I know it's terrible in night raids
If it's foggy
well is eyewear really that worth it anyways?
Not all eyewear does it
yep
I've found that the level 1 ragman opaque glasses don't
got one shotted by a raider in labs
Lol
Look away from the rain
stand under a building or sum
the flash slugs tho
ruthless
i wasnt even mad when the guy flashed me with it
"flash slugs" lol
idk what they are called
They're just flashes there's no projectile
ik
he put 2 in my eyes
No
and probably danced on me
I don't think those exist
Easiest way to get thicc weapons?
Quest
what's the farm duration of a bitcoin with 10 GPUs?
Which wuest
Look up "thicc weapons" it'll say on the wiki page
Isnt thet all t4 traders?
Then yeah
Why csnt thicc items hold junk boxes or pistol cases
Too sir would be too efficient
anyone know what the event is?
#eft-chat pinned
thanks i avoid eft chat so i did not notice
Based
is sp8 good
Condors are nice imo
yes i prefer sp7 becuase it has higher flesh damage though
Condor ricochet
i wear crossbows on factory to avoid ks-23 star ammo
yes plz
but sp8 does have higher fragmentation chance than sp7
ya your best off just going for high flesh and shooting legs or arms
anyone got a portable bunkhouse key?
best your getting is pbm which has 28 pen
i do
Ah dang i thought raider spies would have raider gear
Naw just raider level ai...
Yeah
I was hopeful
Now ill just die to a raider while scav running
Cuz idk which is which
I don't think they attack fellow scavs?
Please tell me nikita didnt smoke enough crack to just copy and paste raider ai
is EKO good with raiders?
366?
yeah
i mean issue is that raiders can spawn with tier 4 gear
which eko doesn't do too hot with
Yea
nothings moer fun than blasting an unsurpressed 366 ak 
I tried it twice in offline labs, honestly didn't like it at all
trying AP-M rn
do raiders of that switch spawn here?
never run labs before Shrug
I think they spawned in the hallway to the left
someone told me before and I forgot 
well already AP-M feels more promising
and not that expensive
.366 tkm?
yeah
f
It can pen t4
RB-VO Marked Key any good?
ya it’s pretty good
would you keep two of them? @merry dust
i mean you could sell and buy another one when you need to
if it really matters
other wise just keep
They’re cheap
40k
if u don’t have flea keep
nope
I found them on the left, took me forever to know where to flank
can someone help me do a scav in a bit D:
wtf 762 Bp still does the armor damage as AP-M 336 
rip
is has more pen but less damage, idk if that's a plus or minus
id rather have more damage than more pen
I guess with auto, high pen is actually advantageous
Wrong
yeah, but if you're using the vpo semi auto
an opinion cant be wrong, stoopid
No you are stoopid
especially if im poor and the more damage rounds are cheaper 
I would always rather pen because i dont aim legs
Uless it is like luger vs rip vs quake maker
Hahahhahaha cries in 1.8 million
2x as much as i have at least
bitch if you want to talk dm me
No
thank you very much game, i have so much time to loot and extract!
interchange scav moment
i have not once spawned on ic as a scav with more than 13 minutes left in raid
how much did it take foru to load?
You probably got a 10-8 minute timer and then spent a chunk loading lol
thats just interchange
Yo, can someone help me out. I dont understand anything 😄
tarkov moment
i have more than 6 days of ingame time and i still suck ass
which i know is not much compared to others
but still
yeh, but wanna teach me some of the ropes?
i cant play rn
aight
I got the game 2 days ago and I also need help lol
sure
yeah go for it
or?
you got a mic
join 2 man squad #10
in discord?
wait, there are groups with noobs if yuou scroll
oh yea
we join one+
?
yeah which one
number 2 is full 😦
aighty
Mp7a1 or mp7a2?
Hey first day on tarkov. Anyone wanna show an old dog the ropes?
I'm sure Sherpas do! 😄 #sherpa-info
just started the game, what should I do? just died first raid as pmc, so should I be looking for scrap and stuff to sell?
!sherpahub
si
As a starting player, i think the best way to get started is to play just 1 map only (probably customs) and try to do the quests you get from traders (check prapor and therapist)
While having a map open on the background or 2nd screen
Expect to die a lot
Be happy if you survive
For free stuff you can try to "scav" youll spawn in later in the raid and can pick up items left behind
I just pre-ordered to get access to the game, but I don't know how to download it. Can anyone help me?
makes sense
go to your profile, it should be there
Dont think too much yet about what to pickup and what not to, but in early stages; meds & food/water are pretty helpful
yikes, thats a lot of info to soak in
fun
Once you get the hang of it and unlock fleamarket youll develop a sense of what the valuable items are and what to leave behind
And one more important thing
Wait a couple minutes, at the bottom it doesn't even say standard package owned
The wipe is going for a few months now, the ammo you can buy at low level generally doesnt penetrate the armor people are wearing by now
so avoid conflict. got it
So dont expect to kill people with faceshields or shooting on the torso
Aim for the legs ^^
Ah, there it is
Dm me if you are na because im gone for a few days but when you are back i can play
If you dont see a faceshield, aim for the head :P
can I still expect my bullets to be blunt damage? body armor does block bullets, but from what I hear its painful as shit
Blunt damage = 1
oh
Yeah you do blunt damage through armor
It's not 1 just not a lot
Its between 0 and 1 rounded up to 1
You do get fatigue and the pain effect when shot 
Depending on the armor, just assume its 1 95% of the time
gotcha
Your bullets will break the armor in a few shots though, after that you can shoot them without it stopping them @warm rivet
oh neattt
However, but thats a bit deeper into the game mechanics, low durability on armor breaks the armor resulting in eventually penetrsting
If someone you do 0 armor damage then yes
Bad armor = easier to break down (such as ceramic armors)
I was browsing the sub and saw a lot of posts about gun jamming, any way to prevent that? Just to be prepared
But to recognize some playerd armor type you need some hours in the game :P
my friend
Repair your guns after raid and don't use scav guns
6.5 buck
lmao
Dont repair too often though, but yes avoid scav guns (scavs spawn with lower durability guns)
Scav guns are okish just don't expect them to work well, they're inaccurate and jam often
and often have a grenade in the chamber instead of a bullet
really depends on the gun, when i had a better rep i got a full durability sa58
cause that shits recoil is huge
haha
And dont eat sugar, keep it until you unlock fleamarket at lvl 15
Youll thank me later
you will very much thank him
Also because it kills hydration lol
but hungry?
You can eat 69 out of 70, people will still buy it for top price
Its a good way to train metabolism, just dont eat all of it
Oh and use your secure container to store items in :)
If you die, anything in there will be kept
doesn't fee get fucked?
Fee of what?
thats where I keep my apple juice
A 1/70 sugar?
nah but seriously, I just got a couple meds in there
flea market fee?
Meds are good to keep in your container
Later youll find yourself storing mags, keytools etc/ammo in there as well
The fea for sugar is already high, but the trader price of a 1/70 or 70/70 sugar isnt too big (and fee is depending on the trader price)
So youll find yourself not paying much more than a 70/70
hello can someone please help me
how to get out of here? new gas XDD
oh I managed to get out, you need to jump before hitting the wires
will the loadouts of scavs also improve with the event?
No wonder I couldnt find the extract for customs, holy shit its huuge
Do you use a map ? (Not ingame) @warm rivet
Custom is the easiest map btw 😭
Also you can check then "offline raid" option before queuing to explore the map a bit. Keep in mind any items found/xp gained is gone. And if you die you dont lose stuff. Its a sort of testing stuff kinda thing
imma do punisher part 3, anyone have a good sight to recoomend for the aks 74u_
Sights arent going to fix that terrible gun, but i like the MRS personally
Its an aks74u
:P
Its one of if not the worst versions of the ak. Other aks are better to modify etc
ugh
yooooooo I just found a riot helmet
welp, thanks for yer input, i do liek that sight too
But its a quest requiremenr
Riot helm, is class 1 and impairs your hearing
Drop it
hey all my icons for guns and stuff are wrong I've tried to validate and go into a raid and restarting how do i fix it
i had fun with the akm quest, cus i made it into a dmr, but im guessing this shortstack wont work well with that
I got an img of a map, thats what you meant, right? @kindred vault ?

Oh that one should be fine :)
Also customs is actually one of the easier maps to learn (mainly because there are so many early game quests on it)
And its smaller than most maps
Oh no thats outdated
Customs got a bit bigger
The spot where the compass is drawn, is now also part of the map :P
oh shit, 10 minutes left, thats a lot of time
really?
Sec let me find one
Im in some shack yard, found a weapon container and now Im scared of losing my helmet
really bro, drop the helmet 😛
yo
wait seriously?
i got link wrong
drop it
oh
best way to check if a helm is any good is its level of protection
tier 1 to tier 6
the psh is a t2(?)
^ that but also this helmet reduces your sound a lot
it is pretty shit
tank helmet is worth wearing
@warm rivet if you strea your gameplay in a channel i can guide you towards an exfil
doesn't reduce your hearing
t1
tank helmet reduces your hearing
very slightly though
same reduction as any other helmet with ear protection
just crank volume to 100 ez fix
that's not how it works shadow.... 😛
oh I cant speak though
my mic is totalled
Stops buckshot though, it's suprisingly clutch on a Scav
i wish to see this in action
fair enough
If I still have the video, I'll show you when I get home
did you get contusion?
Yup
reminds of my condor glasses saving me from m61 rounds twice in a row once
richochets op..
Condors 
i once deflected 3 bp with a shattered
never again did it happen
RNGesus was on your side
25.2% chance of pen with 7mm
on tank helm
holy shit
thats a good chance of not pen
Yup
if only 1 pellet hits yes
it does .2 increase
at 98 dura
which is 1 bullet not pen
same with if pen
is there hanger gate power
for labs?
if labs yes 2nd floor of hanger middle building middle console has button chance
yeah so lets say if both hit, you're looking at a what, 37,5% chance to hit?
probably
my probability math is rusty
where do I find good ammo
i just got home from school so im too lazy to calculate anything
raiders/scav bosses + guards / ammoboxes / reserve
i love how its just
"reserve"
rip
too many places for ammo on reserve
is offline loot different than online
is it odd that I dont seem to be encountering many players?
yes its different
oh that makes sense
most PVP on a map occurs in the first 5-10 minutes
@worn arch
Please don't
afk for now! gl newbie 🙂
Or in the case of factory 1-3
is the left behind edition even worth getting?
can someone teach me how to play im lvl 2
thanks for the help! cheers!
keep this or nah?
Use it
aiht
Also whys it insured
why not
Cuz ur not gonna drop it
😂
🤣
u never know
imagine this right
you're running interchange
and you find 25 red keycards
and you gotta put them into your sicc case
boom, drop the card, get it back in insurance

@humble wing is truly ahead of his time
are there any good youtube videos to get started in eft?
tons
or you can ask a sherpa
they're basically mentors
!sherpahub
exacty bro
aight thanks
LFG 14 new too game need someone to help me get money, i played 2 wipes but quit like 6 months ago so ik a little but not allot NA
fucking embed fail gg
my lucky scavbox is almost full. do i sell everything inside including quest items? or do i save them for quests?
like please man like i refuse to believe i kill 4, then theres still a 5th and the 5th kills me a split second after i take my mag out of my ass
like that guy i killed on the ramp tripled my teammate and also doubled me in this clip, like its sus asf but ill give him the benefit of the doubt
idk what i coulda done
swarming me from all sides
running out of bullets
istg
np
cancel animation once done healing
how man
cancel animation
left click
i was right clicking and shit but it aint work
LEFT
ugh

then 3 more ontop
lol.
this is right off spawn btw.
so tilted man
my last good kit aswell
same shit been happening ALLL DAY
i kill 3 but theres 4
i kill 2 but theres 3
the golden rule
but fuck this
So start killing all of them, leave no one behind!
im more mad about the fact i took a drum of bp out legit a millisecond before i died
I'm halfway to level 14, should I keep it to sell in flea market or should I sell it now?
Keep forbnow and check price and it will probably be through the roof from event
whats the best map to find look and level up quickly
labs.
would anyone like to spawn in with me so i can shoot you in the head for the jager tremor quest, will do the same favour back if you need it
Foesnt count for teamstes
ugh...
Woild have to snipe and get into the same lobby
What’s the new event?
well, thanks for the info
Im dumb not new event loot buff
can u play with friends in this game?
Yes
There is a new event tho lmao
cant use labs rn
Tasks is fastest
how do i recover from this immense poverty
dont say scav ill strangle you
lost over 10mil to cheaters alone
xD
Sca- rat runs
now getting ran over by shitty crabbing 5 mans
Ks full of zvezda and then a meta m4 full of 995 or 3 cant remember the number
what are some of the better reserve keys
im starting to do reserve runs and wondering what keys i should pick up
i have a mission to kill 5 scavs, can i do it as a scav?
no
scavs dont have tasks yet attleast
this game is bullshit hackers nonstop
heres a screenshot of some of the best keys
Are the orb keys any good?
according to what i found online they are very good but because they sell for like 500k each its just better to put on flea
anyone help me with quests? im lvl 11
Not all of them sell for "500"k most of them sell at 100-150k
i think
Anyone got any advice? Scav runs arent netting me hardly anything at all (reserve and customs) My pmc account is under 30k right now haha
Where do u scav on customs
go to ikea
ikea isnt on customs
no, go to ikea instead
i think he meant go to sweden
Ikea is everywhere
so are u playing?
hopping into interchange may not be a terrible idea
on ikea
ikea was the loot we had inside us all along
your a loot
ikea is unfortunately too far for me to go to haha
😏😏
NO
i dont like scavving interchange
NO
interchange is a gold mine for scav loot
well if u dont want to no need to yell
i scav reserve
i can kill pmcs and get good loot
I scav factory
my only issue with scaving interchange is I always end up with under 10 m inutes on the timer
chaotic evil ending
thats my exact issue
with reserver, u can spawn up to 42 min mark
hang out with big boi pmcs
Yep
I wish I could survive a pmpc encounter on scav or pmc haha
my last raid i saw like no one on reserve with a 42 min timer
i always see pmcs killing scavs and whatnot
most are gone by 30
with some ratty ones left behind
missions are brong when ur solo
boring
so i just scav reserve while doing other stuff
i get 100k minimum and ususally around 250-300k per scav run
I'll mess around with scaving on reserve it's just not been it for me haha if I'm not dying to auto aiming raiders I'm dying to pmcs or not seeing anyone
A scav backpack is normally here or someone placed it here?
how do i breach doors
im playing as pmc now and i cant find scavs to kill
What map
Custom
is akmsn better then akmn
No
where can i find L1 in raid for peacekeeper
In stim spawns
Otherwise tagilla spawns with it all the time
