so how do i git gud?
how much this gun worth
200k
nice
do scav bosses kill you as a scav without harming any other scavs?
Daily doesn’t give rep
they do now
Word
Have a question, this is my first wipe. Today, when I started playing I noticed when i'm a PMC that scavs aren't killing me. They follow me around but don't shoot. I had two looking directly at me in customs and I just sat there and killed one with a knife and the other didn't do anything. He only shot when I started looting. Is this due to the event or something?
Okay, its kind of like having bodyguards
Heard rumours of the halloween mask changing scav AI behaviour towards PMC's, take it with a grain of salt though
I don't have a Halloween mask on so idk
all the ammo you don't need, the small magazines, the pacas, the t-bag, the kolpak, the green army helmet (forgot it's name)
and the guns you don't plan on using
Sell all but BP gzh
does anyone know anything about the upcomiong event
keeping 1 of every mag or whatever
For what
Bruh
I'm using my PMC btw
Download medal
Is that a recording software thing?
Yea
Cool, thanks
And that scav prolly didn’t shoot you because this game is shit and has bugs
Idk, been 4 raids in a row scavs haven't shot me
That’s weird idk what to tell you, I seen a guy in here before who was in a raid with a knife and was marked and cursed but the scavs never killed him
Yeah thats weird
any one tryna play im kinda bad but i wanna try to get good
its a long hard process
aint gonna happen overnight
idk

I hope this works It says I watched it before but I don’t remember watching it
And if the video doesn’t tell you this. Tasks should be your goal, learn customs first, DONT joint a LFG in game, ammo>gun and you finna die a lot
Thanks, yea it looks rough to start out
lmao this event is a catastrophe
event is about to start and there is probably bugs so like yah i think it is with that
hope it gets delayed
why
Just server problem
ok
i tried buying something off flea and my game crashed
snipping tool
good game
it probably has system information
OH
It contains your IP address.
BRUH
lmao
yalll r the hook up
Too late I got it now rip your router
XD
Sn let me stop
asap
OK
tf
do drops give me a code
u getting a girlfriend?
i got one already
what are those drops
ive had one for 7 months dude
vouch
for who
maybe ur his gf 😳
hmm perhaps
hello, i am playing on customs, and suddenly game is black and white
halloween
it didnt happen for me tho
wtf
ok... there is a storm too
LOL
how u guys recommend to get sbih reserve?
Know the spots, have someone bait people and leave after about 10 min in raid cause the rest are underground or escaped by now and scav player will start to spawn in
i dont know the spots
I can help you if you want to
sure, im in a duo
hmu when you want to load in a raid for it. I'm gonna need to try and extract first
we are out of raid
Yeah, so am I
What vc you want to join? Or are you already in one?
3 man squad #26
so all the event is tagged and cursed by scavs that are fucking insane with shit loot
the loot is allegedly buffed
lvnd found a black key card and some other shit on scavs
How do i make money, im constantly dying and broke
don't pick fights
be quiet, be sneaky, and learn a cache route that you can hit and exit with
Shoreline/Customs are both valid
Customs for Caches?
Do you know what area
literally anything on the opposite side of the river from Big Red has a cache near it
hold on
use a map from mapgenie.io and learn the cache locations on woods, customs and/or interchange. scav every time you can and always try to survive before fighting. also check out #sherpa-info if you want to try to schedule a teacher
Could someone give me 10 mil rubels
this is the map I use
every red star is a cache
BOI JUST FOUND 3RD GPU THIS WEEK IN IDEA OFFICE
that would be against discord rules
I WAS DOING A TASK
did you click it and read it
click the link my guy
nice
fuck yeah
so tf does the applique on caiman do
it does what the slaap plate does for the fast mt
is this considered a good raid
additional durability
not bad
nothing crazy either
just a gpu
what i consider a good run is, the value of loot, how long it took me, how long did it take me to get into raid, did i run into anyone
didnt run into anyone just a scav, took 20 minutes
what map?
interchange
haven't checked it until i had to do this task
gpus in idea are not common from my experience but can be found there
never found a gpu
ever
never?
i've found 4 gpus on interchange
well
3 on interchange , 1 in reserve marked
yeah i've found tetriz's
i recommend you to check the idea office from now on. It's a confirmed spawn from me haha
the circled room
the tetriz was right neck to the gpu
i know all the gpu spawns on interchange
oo
i just dont really do interchange
how many times have u checked them
not much tbh i know there is probably a chance i'll get one but im better off on a map that is better for me
interchange is too dark
even with post fx
agree
interchange w/ postfx and gamma you can see everything
i literally did like my first ever task for ragman yesterday
fuck that cunt and his interchange lol.
i dont, i dont own any keys for interchange not a map i would willingly go to
unless i am broke then sure i'll loot oli and goshan
same ahahah
only reason i went there yesterday was because i was at 20k roubles
made over 5mil in an hour
so what map should i be running for the event?
thats good question tagilla has been running me down on customs
hey, can anyone tell me what i need to keep and what i need to sell in my scav box?
it's kinda overflowing
do you have flea
depends on ur level and what quests you’ve done
yeah
i'm lv 28 rn, almost 29
i'm trying to get the water filter to lv 2 and vents/lights to lv3 respectively
check what you need for your hideout
and then keep what you need
and do the same with quests
i know those rolers and skulls are needed for quests
check the wiki, i forget what’s needed for what quest/barter
is there anything that's immediately not useful?
be it for a quest way way down the line, or just straight junk
Why does my friend have a different time than me? I cant invite him
(lvl 13) best place to farm XP? I'm currently killing all scavs on Customs and Shoreline (as a beginner, I find the scavs spawns on those two maps easier to handle)
they're too hard to do
I need to unlock flea market
to do the tasks
but I'll work on it once I get there, thank you
damn, just found a FIR dorms marked key on a dead body on the ground?
in the pockets
it was looted tho
who didn't loot a dorms marked key?
free 100k
it was 300k last time i checked
what's up prices last few weeks
NO FUCKIGN WAY
I KILLED A SCAV OR WHATEVER IT IS
IT HAD H EXA
ABORT MISSION
holy shit
what the fuck
reserve?
interchange
huh
how the fuck did you get a military cable
emercom
is m62 good
yes
its tracer round but yes its good
its slightly better than m80
when become chad
trust me
when i see this guy play
he is sitting behind me and doesnt move
f
get fucked dingus
that screencap makes me happy, I miss the FAL
i was running ps

k im out
i've anscended to chadness
I FUCKIN LOVE THE PANDA SHIT
i've got a rat mindset and chad gear
if you were chad you wouldnt give a fuck what you found and push pvp
thats just a rat with roubles
yes
you dont even have roubles lol
you run almost nothing with me
so more than half of the tarkov player base?
i have 50m
basically
you should save these guns and continue your loot grind, unless you have the biggest balls ever i would never run meta guns/kits during a loot run
is nighttime factory atm the best way to farm xp?
id assume so with cultists players and two bosses roaming around
those guns are modded to the max i would estimate about 700k or 800k
and that hexgrid
holy shit im out
i am refreshing for 5 min and he did not get restocked
im begging god nikita
poor guy died from sks to the head
doesn’t he sell like 10 per restock or something
with ps gzh
yea
should've used visor
is the mechanic aesa weapon case barter worth it
holy shit
it's so cheap now?
yeah
if you don't know already taiga usually don't sell for roubles, when they do it's like 10 mil
it's 3 mil
50% DOWN
3.7
BUY
should’ve sold mine earlier 
chad stash
very swag
Did u mean scav stash
:(

I'm trying to go Reserve on offline mode to learn the map, but the offline mode ALWAYS spawn at night no matter what I choose, even if I check random time
???????
Whats the quickest way to level up for better weapons?
quest
lol
quest til you're 35 and have enough rep for all traders then you have the option to play labs farm raiders
it is highly not recommended bc raiders are cracked right now
no
keep trying to do the customs quest but keep getting capped in the face by players
sounds about right
is there any way i can find a group to help?
you want to help?
i need help
oo
im not very good so theres not much i can do
dms
ok
just ask around someone will help you
!sherpahub
sometimes there are people here but in sherpahub more people are available just to help
could anyone help me with tasks i need to find the note in woods?
because of halloween event
anyone want to run a raid or two?\
Anyone wanna run with 2 newer guys
does the case for pharmasist need to be fir
you can't get it non FIR
nvm i got killed by a chad in dorms when i had a fuckin pb pistol xD
also i meant if i early ex
bro used like 3 m855a1 mags on me and i had no armor xD
While quest items are required to be found in raid as there is no other way to obtain them, the player does not have to avoid the Run Through status.
POG
What gun is best for getting it back from insurance?
Don't want to lose too many of them
4*6 ak comes to mind
alright, thanks
you think a lightly modded AKMS should work
and by lightly i mean very lightly
just a kobra and a shitty foregrip
probably, the weapons that are at risk of being taken are either meta stuff or very compact stuff
so a non meta akm would probably be taken only if the dude that killed you had a free weapon slot
k
I thought it was 42
Tru
any money making tips?
do these halloween scavs spawn with shmaskas?
i need it for the ragman quest, but i have yet to find any
scav runs and stash runs are good
some people have trouble playing tarkov with vpn on(or installing it) so there's that
if you mean that you want to buy CIS version but your friend is outside CIS, you can convert CIS version to international for free afaik
would this game run any better if i moved it to an ssd?
i heard that helps, mine still runs like shit tho..
im getting ffreezes besides stutters
never actually killed a pmc because my game likes to kill itself when bullets are fired
how much ram do you have?
i heard processor is important for EFT
i’m hoping that the second 8GB ram stick i’m going to buy will fix my issues
what does IR laser do?
and probably switch from intel to amd
@raw monolith why switch from intel to amd, just upgrade your intel processor?
amd's get hot in my experience
welp.. amd is cheaper and more price/quality
i think it’s a barely visible laser, and lasers tighten up spread i believe
👉🔥
so i think you’d probably want to put one on a full auto gun
@drifting smelt ok so both lasers will help with spread though right?
i was wondering if IR laser and IR spotlight do the same thing
hmm
just honest opinion, i've built a lot of rigs, i'd just get an intel mid range processor. Amd's get hot a lot, ive went through a few of them
like, if you are going to liquid cool of course its prob ok but idk
i know the laser definitely helps spread while barely being visible, idk about the searchlight tho
ah so the searchlight does the same thing
but it’s a searchlight so instead of a faint laser and point on the wall you’re looking at it’s a faint light
welp from others i heard that amd is better overall if im looking for more quality at a lower price.. still dont have a full wishlist but eh
map?
Hi im reallly new like havent even opened the game yet. I their any tips you can give me? Ive already watched the most basics of guides
besides youtubeing key factors (like maps, items value and what to loot, weapons, armor) just try to play to accomodate with the game and use apps or sites to help you
@wispy cape ammo is king in this game, this time of the wipe you want to just do your task. its not so much the gun, its the ammo you shoot. pull up a balistics guide and learn the ammos that pierce armor. I would learn customs map first
isnt customs kinda harsh this far in the wipe?
not to start a fight just my opinion
tasks will level you up. Also, something that took me a while, you dont have to take every fight. You can re-position yourself if you want or run from a fight you think you may lose. you dont have to treat every fight as fight until the death
@raw monolith yea probably is hot, it depends i feel like they all are lately. I just know a lot of the beginner tasks are on customs
Idk I'm learning and customs definitely feels the most friendly so far
customs is easy to learn but its chokepoints can be annoying as a new player
customs is like, friendly-ish because all of the juicers are in dorms or certain spots
true
yea for sure, woods and stuff its more like you will be getting shot and not know from where a lot of the time. As with shoreline
The other maps feel too big, too small, or don't have very distinctive landmarks to notice
as long as you stay away from dorms you’ll be fine
for me i think any map is friendly besides customs and factory
i’ve been having fun on interchange recently
factory is like not beginner friendly ha. Interchange is the same with hot spots. Just juicers running around that know the map well
It really just depends, tarkov is unforgiving and you will die a lot, just try to learn and do your tasks. This game is a lot about positioning and ammo. No need to rush a fight, etc.
factory is torture even for experienced players.. learned that yesterday from some vids
oh yeah by the way: you will die. a lot.
never played on factory but from what i’ve seen of it it’s horrible
death is like your minion lol, always following u
yep
i actually started on factory and it didnt do well, it gave me a bad impression of what the game is like
you can run away from it sometimes but it always catches up
so i wouldnt recommend it. factory is call of duty
call of duty in a game with no respawns
yep, usually a bunch of naked shotgun/pistolers and 1 juicer mowing them all down
factory is cool for scaving tbh... my experience scaving was nice on factory the most
i scav a lot on customs but that’s only really because i know it the best
yea i cache run customs on scav and its not bad
i just found a hexgrid in a stash lmfao
jesus
stashes are op as fuck
i found my first gpu in a stash
i need to start doing stash runs
same
because i’m slowly but surely running out of that starting money
honestly my first stash run experience resulted in garbage items
scav stashes are good, i run shoreline and have like 80 mil now
jeez
what should i do with all these halloween masks? i sold 2 to ragman cuz no space
idk you can buy them on flea so
they not expensive ig?
faceless is like 66k
i already sold rip
it wasnt found in raid so u couldnt sell to flea anyway
you can only sell fir items on flea?
yep
yep
i have this loot lord plushie sitting in my stash and idek what it’s for
its for kappa
yeah bro just grind to 71
xD
lol
actually its 62 now but still
just sell those items to therapist
Is someone able to help me with task? I have had some of the worst luck with the most basic task ever.
@keen lantern is it in dorms
no its the first task from thearapist
the salewa medkits?
hmmmmmmm, im trying to think of the easiest place to find them
I know that cart in crack house, but the last 3 time I have when there its just death
I know that you can craft them too right?
oh wait you can craft them for the quest anyway
i know it says find and it doesnt have to be fir
like I have to build something int he hideout?
yes
well I can't make that yet
then grind to make it
i would just dedicate scav runs to trying to find them either on customs or the med building on reserve
yeah I never though of that
Is anyone able to do the scav runs with me or wrong chat to ask that in
shit
Get fucked

Hey guys does anyone have the portable bunkhour key for the quest Bad rep evedince i cant buy it nor find it because i dont have flee unlocked
It spawns in a jacket by the office in factory
under which channel can you find people to play with

mine was fir rk-2
lmao
2 roubles + 1 screw driver
lmao
looking for friends to play!
👍

woops
forgot about u
ill get the key rn
had to do my friends hw
nah shes just slightly lazy
science history
hey no worries man i got some help thank you though
science 
aight
tarkov has to be rigged in some way
mine prob too hard yeah
i was down bad and with my money and i scavved randomly before going to sleep, i spawn in with alyonka + labs acess card in my inventtory and omw to extract theres m2 rig filled with barter items
and i pulled out 650k in 4 minutes of work
nikita has smiled down on you today
event still going?
im negative scav karma and i see labs card and im like wtf?
nop
NICE
i got nothing from moonshine
like NOTHING
i shouldn’t complain, i got taiga from 85k
why wont it let me turn in my salewa that i just found?
is it found in raid?
yes
does it have a check mark on the bottom right?
a shift n shit too
lucky u
speaking of
i got a wooden ak stock and ps gs 

it did in raid? can i not put them in my pouch while in raid and still turn them in?
yeah
did you die?
no i did not die. i extracted
the salewa was in my pouch
big juice
7 blue cards 
i get mine in 49 minutes
1 hour 39 for me
no checkmarj
i meant it was already goin
o
why no check mark
run through
it had the check mark while i was in raid
and
so i have to stay for so long?
wasnt lying btw. it had the mark in raid just like i said
IN RAID
you got out of raid
and its gone
wow i wonder what happened idc
all that matters is that it isnt fir anymore
i didnt lie is what im saying?? can you read
craft them bro
perfect kit
huh?
craft them using the med station in ur hideout
dont have the med station yet. havent found a disposable syringe yet
Hit crackhouse on customs
wheres crackhouse?
or just hit resort on shoreline and grab a bag full of only meds
he probably wont survive resort or crackhouse if he has no medstation yet
just go to mill camp on woods
wont be as contested and often overlooked by other players so if you scav here you can get out with 1-2 sugars and a few salewas
BRO
JUST QUICK
2 MIN PMCS
KILL A CULTIST AND LEAVE
IS SO PROFITABLE
all im saaaaayin
mine was 2 pacas
i havent gotten slickie or hexie yet
but when i did a run with medic he got hexie
no hex i don't think
there was hex
thanks
ive had 2 pmc raid back to back with friendly scavs... they all just kinda surround me... is that a bug or a haloween thing?
this might not be the right clip but i recorded what happned
second clip is a continue of the first and the 3rd clip is a pmc raid just after
anyone know whats happening with this????
bug with pistols
Prob fucked up marked and cursed
its working with knife runs and i dont kill friendly scavs so not tagged
any loot i have i picked up from scavs killed by other pmc
pmc*
all the loot i have is from scav killed by other omc
I have another clip but its to long for discord, wont let me upload it
from the same match
its in every pmc game i go into tho
prob just a bug but its spooky as hall and on Halloween of course
if i stepped on a landmine, will insurance get my stuff back
If nobody finds ur stuff
@tough oyster if nobody picks up your stuff yku should get it back
@rustic cliff DAMN
wait
lemme flip
yeah still looks shit but like
5 kills and 3 cultists in one scav raid wit a sks?
That raid is probably worth more then my stash@rustic cliff
literally the one weapon was 190k
like fucking what
@rustic cliff my level5 ass sitting over here with 2 mill and a mozen
i literally dumpstered all that loot for bank
and i’m like level fucking 11
😭
alright great, running into a minefield seems like a good idea
no cultist during day right?
@tough oyster thought ur pfp was whole horse from jjba for a sec. Cultest only during night
Does the game even try and separate players by rank at all
@analog pelican not that im aware
absolutely not at all
@inland marlin lmao
Lol yes
anyone willing to play with a new player?
what do wipes reset?
I think December @pearl pier
that's not what, that's when
and everything, Rals.
you start from 1 again, with whatev er you get from the edition of the game you have
@nimble creek miss read his message
Can I have some advice for inventory management?
stop saving stuff for the 'future' and sell it all
Don’t save shit u can buy for cheap
is there any way to get out of this glitched spot on customs? or am i fucked
Im handing out candy in the beginners assistance voice chat

stop by and drop in factory with me for a tick or treat
i just got lvl 15, what are some good rules to follow for selling on the flee market?
undercut everyone.
whats the best 9x18mm bullets?
just make your price a bit lower then average.
anyone need $ dm me
down to help any new people on customs. i'm just running around mag dumping scavs for weapon mastery. dm me
please be NA
bonus points if you're a conservative
but damn the event was boring yesterday
fr
ngl, i shit myself during the event
this some sad shit
atleast i got a btc out 😦
anybody wanna help with quests for a little bit?
:no:
my newbie ass was scared of culists on reserve that came rushing me and stabbed me
for sure, but if you can wait like 20 minutes
lol
I looked on EFT after long time and I see that I don't have anymore available Christmas pack/gift.
Is there a problem with me or do those packs really disappear after a few months?
do i need to do all in one raid
cuz i did 2 of them, extracted
and it's still like this
i did
i checked the task in game
i did both 2
both of them were green
and i survived
with all of my items
i did cottages and pier
so im on woods doing the introduction to jager and im trying to exit by bridge extract but it says i need to bring alyonka
i thought i was supposed to bring 3k rubbles
cuz of the event
is the hallowen event over?
question, is it normal that u get shot in SCAV game, or are those just players that dont know what to do there
Someone Carry me please?
Im new to the game, and it is really hard to get to the flea market on my own
how do I stop getting killed within 10 seconds of a factory raid?
You dont
3 fuckign tetrizes in one scav run
one in techlight
one in rassmussen
and one in german
and i foudn them all 10 minutes left of raid
how were they not looted
should i buy batteries and try bartering them
Omg
how do i get into weapon modding? i cant ever find a mount for a gun to put a scope on and stuff like this
edit presets
and link search the gun
on flea
i dont have flea market unlocked yet
then you shouldn't be really modding
so i can do my job with default guns until 20?
6
*15 level
Best ammo for that level is sold by prapor 762 PS rounds
Yep yep^
yeah, just buy a mosin and lps from prapor
yes
ks23 factory 2 shots fired 2 enemies killed it's that easy
thanks for the tagilla rig bozo
2 mags of sp7 and 3 guys dead
thanks for the rys-t's and slicks
well not really since i got cornered in idea office by a 4man after
im proud of myself though
😎
should i go for high damage or pen ammo?
high pen ammo to feel like a chad but high damage ammo to kill chads on a budget
soo i guess for a lvl 6 i should go for pen?
you're generally aiming for 50 pen for class 6
more pen = more chance of damaging higher class armor
more damage = the damage that is done when it pens
idk how to do this
what's the name of the map in the top right
oh woods never knew that thank you!
imma do hatchet run :D
ohhh ok
ok thx
Should I sell my svd to peace keeper?
Need to buy/sell 5k to get him to lvl 2
Really want those nvgs
If you can afford it I advise buying the dollars
It's the most efficient and you'll need it anyway
You need 6k usd for a quest right
Btw where do all the people go during night time woods
Ive yet to encounter a player over multiple raids
Because no one plays it lol
Don't 12-20 pmcs still need to spawn tho?
No g
what do i do with the 3 GP i got from the drops? are they good on the flea or sum?
should i buy a thicc items case
Therapist
If you have the spare money and need the space
At that point why not just bring a real gun though
When you’re spending like 30k for a pistol
sold most of my value barter items i have 22 mil with no space in my stash
so i should go for it?
im a lvl 20
How tf are you level 20 with 22m
Also what kind of items are taking up all of the space
I’m assuming all non fir
Honestly what id do is sell a bunch of stuff but I’m not really much of a hoarder for gear
ye that wont work they arent found in raid
What level are you
But idk if that’s a normal thing
They said?
yesterday i got 2 violet cards from cultists
