beginners-assistance

[drifting bison]

yes

[rain karma]

how do i see that

[vagrant cargo]

only thing i did was kill 2 guys

[drifting bison]

if u want a docs case

[honest shore]

Maybe a team or something. If they are teamed they both have to hit you.

[ornate owl]

ok thank you

[vagrant cargo]

and die like 200 times

[drifting bison]

u can barter lion, cat and 2 horses for it

[rough scarab]

its all your starter gear

[drifting bison]

as therapist 2

[vagrant cargo]

its in character stats

[ashen hedge]

You can trade them for useful stuff but also sometimes they're requited for tasks or gor hideout upgrade. Pretty much anything that isn't a weapon or part or wearable or medical or food

[rain karma]

gotta check that rq

[vagrant cargo]

tbh dont care about money the only weapon i need costs 9k

[ornate owl]

where to get cat

[hexed atlas]

Ohh kk

[rough scarab]

stash value doesnt matter unless its all rouble or you plan on liquidating everything you own

[ashen hedge]

Hmm

[honest shore]

My stash value is about 5m.

[honest shore]

I mean they both have to hit you for you to kill both and get no scav rep loss, I worded that badly.

Or one could hit yuo and if you shoot the other you lose rep.

[vagrant cargo]

give me everything you own!! i need moners

[honest shore]

No

[drifting bison]

ive seen a lot of cats in repair shop

and stashes

[honest shore]

I love it when your character reloads while you are leaning against a wall, so they dislocate their wrists and shoulders to reload. Very good.

[bold kernel]

wheres the portable bunkhouse key for bad rep?

i went to the place on factory and after 5 times it aint there so im wondering if im looking wrong or if its changed

[vagrant cargo]

whats the MTS double action

like whats the difference between DA and single fire

[honest shore]

If that's the double barreled shotgun it means you fire both shots at once

[bold kernel]

Double action is pretty much semi-automatic

[vagrant cargo]

whats the advantage of using SA then

[bold kernel]

faster fire rate

[vagrant cargo]

wait how

[ornate owl]

on customs?

[honest shore]

On a pistol kindof, but I don't think there's any double action pistols in the game.

[bold kernel]

MTS is the revolver shotgun

[vagrant cargo]

i meant fire types on MTS shotgun

it says single fire and double action

[bold kernel]

i dont think any of you know what youre on about

[honest shore]

Ah my bad then.

[drifting bison]

yes @ornate owl

[ornate owl]

ok thank you

[vagrant cargo]

i know what double action actually is but not what it means in tarkov

[bold kernel]

single action = slower fire rate but stronger kick and damage and range
semi = faster fire rate but less damage

[drifting bison]

the advantage of single fire with the revolver shotgun is more accuracy

[vagrant cargo]

single action is stronger ????

woah

alright

[drifting bison]

it's more accurate

but slower

less recoil

[vagrant cargo]

so is it better in most situations

[drifting bison]

it's better if you're slugging from like 50m yeah

[onyx grail]

Alright, so I haven't played in over a year, what did I miss?

[drifting bison]

if you're trying to spam buckshot from up close

obviously not

[honest shore]

How would changing the action on a shotgun make it more accurate or do more damage?

[vagrant cargo]

you can talk

[drifting bison]

its a revolver right

[hexed atlas]

Ye u can now scream for mercy 10/10

[drifting bison]

so single action you pull the hammer back

[bold kernel]

balancing

[vagrant cargo]

i dunno something about gas or whatever

some stuff

maybe the trigger pull ?

[drifting bison]

cycle fire you're actioning the hammer and cycling

[vagrant cargo]

idk

DA triggers feel harder i think

[bold kernel]

double action has a harder trigger since it gotta pull the hammer back

[honest shore]

Trigger pull on a double action is a stiff trigger, and thus you are gonna have some extra pull and may be a bit less on target, but gun would still be just as accurate.

[vagrant cargo]

idk if the mts is like that but the revolvers i know have a hair trigger in SA

[drifting bison]

no no

if you pull har

hard

its gonna pull the shot

therefore be less accurate

[vagrant cargo]

hm

[drifting bison]

youre forcibly rotating the cylinder

[honest shore]

I see what you mean, so not gun accuracy, but user accuracy.

[drifting bison]

essentially

since you're putting so much force into pulling the trigger to get the hammer back and cycle the cylinder

the gun will move toward that pull

likely slightly left for right handed shooters

[rough crag]

guys......

[drifting bison]

if you're finger is correctly placed

[vagrant cargo]

i had backwards logic on that then

[rough crag]

u know i was trying to lose some loot......

[honest shore]

You did it? Congrats.

[rough crag]

ffs.......

[shadow pecan]

dont pick it up ez

[vagrant cargo]

people like you are gross

[rough crag]

wdym

[vagrant cargo]

i hate you stop having loot and being good

[honest shore]

Sell stuff you don't need

[rough crag]

MAN

[vagrant cargo]

i hate people who are better than me

[rough crag]

ITS NOT MY FAULT

i scavved into the raid

i died in

and killed the guy

[vagrant cargo]

i cant even kill a stupid ass scav

[rough crag]

that killed me

[honest shore]

Stop using scav if you have so much loot. Do quests on PMC.

[vagrant cargo]

@rough cragcarry me

[rough crag]

i am NOT good

[drifting bison]

having loot doesnt mean hes good m8

[rough crag]

idk how he died from a mosin shot to the thorax

one shot

[drifting bison]

no armor

[vagrant cargo]

yeah well it means he can be a rat alright

[rough crag]

he had an osprey

[vagrant cargo]

teach me how to be the nastiest rat

[honest shore]

Mosin is a hefty gun.

[drifting bison]

it is

[rough crag]

with lps

[drifting bison]

lps isnt weak

[vagrant cargo]

lps good

[rough crag]

one shotting a osprey?

[honest shore]

Hide in bush near extract. Done.

[drifting bison]

u must have crit

lucky

[vagrant cargo]

seriously though i hardly make any money

how do yall do it

[honest shore]

Play scav.

No losses, all gains.

[drifting bison]

figure out which items give u most ruble per slot

and keep those

[vagrant cargo]

i dont think i ever find any good items though

i took a car battery because i was going off flea market price

i totally forgot its lvl 15 to get that now

🥲

[whole gulch]

do keycards have durability like keys now?

[honest shore]

If you want 500k-2m games you need to play PMC and do really well, usually pvp. But with scav you can come out with 250k with some looting or 50k just extracting if you are lucky with spawn loot.

[rough crag]

idk

i kill people

and suddenly money appears

in my stash

[vagrant cargo]

and you dare say you're bad

carry me

!!

[rough crag]

i am

lol

this is my first time playing from start of wipe

[vagrant cargo]

i only make like 50k per raid 😭

[whole crest]

is out of curiostiy and chem part 4 the same?

[rough crag]

and last wipe i only got to level 25

[honest shore]

Then you are making money. Win.

[vagrant cargo]

relatable but dont care you'd still be a good thing to me

[rough crag]

nah

im really bad

i only got that loot cus the guy was running for extract

[vagrant cargo]

wait your username is wehraboo on another server

are you cringe

[rough crag]

ur in mordhau discord server

how

[vagrant cargo]

i play mordhau a lot

theres only like 1k players now though

[rough crag]

how canu see my name in ph server

ur not in it

[honest shore]

Grab a scav gun, knife and that's probably 20k at least. Loot, single slot weapon parts are worth quite a bit. Anything made of gold or super advanced and you got a 50k+ item probably.

[vagrant cargo]

im in it

idiot

[rough crag]

og

u never talk

[vagrant cargo]

i dont

people in ph server are

special

[rough crag]

true

thats why im the most active member

[vagrant cargo]

yeah but i cant find those

seriously idk where to loot

[honest shore]

You can. Hit stashes, hit loose loot spawns, etc.

[vagrant cargo]

the only place i find stuff is interchange caches

loose lot was not good to me even once

[honest shore]

That's a lie I'm sure

[bold kernel]

Whats the best place to loot for a beginner?

[honest shore]

Unless you gloss over loose loot

[vagrant cargo]

not even

[honest shore]

Customs, unless you mean how to learn, in which case #sherpa-info

[vagrant cargo]

i unironically didnt find stuff in fucking RESERVE

i gotta go crackhouse to find salewas right ?

[honest shore]

Reserve is not known for loose loot.

[vagrant cargo]

cause i cant find them in any medical place

[bold kernel]

Thanks.

[vagrant cargo]

IT USED TO BE IM NOT UP TO DATE

[rough scarab]

crackhouse or woods med camp

[vagrant cargo]

why did they remove reserve loose loot ???

it was my golden cow

[rough scarab]

both are pvp spots so go preparred

[vagrant cargo]

like a year ago

[honest shore]

Its a good spot. There's other ways but if you hit the upstairs window room, upstairs closet, and downstairs medical table you can get a lot of meds. I got 3 salewas there earlier in the same game.

[vagrant cargo]

woah

[brazen hound]

is the zenit worth trading for from the mechanic?

[vagrant cargo]

crazy

may start playing customs

[brazen hound]

i have a roller watch and GP coin

[vagrant cargo]

im not good at the game since im new but it doesnt look worth it tbh???

idk

how much does roller go for

[honest shore]

Didn't realize they changed price. It has good attachments to kit up an AK but its a good smg too.

[honest shore]

52k to therapist I think.

[vagrant cargo]

does the vityaz really need all that though

[whole crest]

who should i do the marker customs quest to

[vagrant cargo]

so its like... a 75-80k gun right

[whole crest]

skier therapist or prapor?

[rain karma]

ok so i just did a scav run on customs, spawned at the gas station, scav npcs were chill and then i looted one thing there and they started shootin at me. do they shoot if you loot their shit?

[inland bobcat]

so im lvl 22 now and i still need gas analyzers is there any spawns that i can farm or smth

[honest shore]

It's pretty much meta. Meta guns can go for 250k depending on the gun. I'd guess that one is 130k but idk.

[vagrant cargo]

zenit is meta gun

wow

[honest shore]

Its not meta, but attachments are.

So slap them on an AK and you have a meta ak.

Maybe not meta but good.

[vagrant cargo]

idk if attachments are worth it still

who knows

im TIREd

[honest shore]

YouTubers recommend it and it always sells out immediately, so if the masses could speak I think they've spoken.

Plus you can sell the gun back or use it.

[vagrant cargo]

wow ok

attachments worth !!

vityaz is good

very good

[honest shore]

Used to only cost a roler.

[vagrant cargo]

love vityaz

[honest shore]

A lot of people use it straight from vendor too. Its 9mm but its a kitted 9mm.

[robust stirrup]

need some help, how do i find the key to get the bronze pocket watch on customs

[rough crag]

@vagrant cargoi been playing

factory

only

[vagrant cargo]

Wtf

[rough crag]

aswell

[vagrant cargo]

Why would you ever do that

I hate factory im too much of a stealthy rat

[rough crag]

to get the mp-133s.....

[vagrant cargo]

Oh

There’s loads on customs dude

[rough crag]

but i keep killing players on accident

[vagrant cargo]

Accidents

Yeah

Right

[rough crag]

yea

i wanna go in

and kill scavs

[vagrant cargo]

Stop being good I hate you

[rough crag]

but players always run into me

so i kill them

[honest shore]

There's a common spawn (I think guaranteed) on a coat in 3 story dorms. You also don't need the key, sometimes it is already opened.

[robust stirrup]

unlock jaeger and buy them from him it's worth the money to complete the task

[honest shore]

Buy from Jaeger.

[rough crag]

can i do that?

[robust stirrup]

that's what i'm sayingggggggg

[honest shore]

Yes

[rough crag]

i dont even have jaeger

yet

so

[honest shore]

Indeed

[honest shore]

Then get him.

[robust stirrup]

yeah 20k roubles per shotgun

[rough crag]

but woods is scary

[robust stirrup]

woods is so aids

[rough crag]

i feel safe on factory

[honest shore]

You need to do it sometime.

[lapis sedge]

it is?

i haven't gone there yet

[rough crag]

ill do it with my friends

tmr

[rough crag]

theres mines in the floor

[honest shore]

Then you can just buy them

[lapis sedge]

oh fuck yeah

[vagrant cargo]

I hate woods but some nice guys helped me get him earlier

[lapis sedge]

that's my kind of cheeki breeki

[robust stirrup]

good idea i only run woods w my friends

[vagrant cargo]

Amazing guys

[honest shore]

Mines are marked well unless you go to prapor's camp, and that is a small area in an easy to find spot.

[robust stirrup]

cheeki breeki nice and s n e e k i

[lapis sedge]

i like it sneeki

is it anything like fighting in the garbage?

one of my favorite places in stalker

[honest shore]

Only on Tuesdays.

[vagrant cargo]

The garbage

[unique bolt]

anyone want to play? i dont really know what im doing and i heard its a lot more fun with people.

[vagrant cargo]

It’s more like red forest if every monolith was invisible @lapis sedge

[lapis sedge]

LMAO

HAH

[vagrant cargo]

snipers go crazy in there

[honest shore]

#pvp-lfg

[lapis sedge]

that's perfect! thank you

imma start chantin hymns in russian once i get on and log into forest

[vagrant cargo]

Bruh

[lapis sedge]

give em that real cultist feeling

[vagrant cargo]

Mf going full monolith

idi ko mne

[honest shore]

If you VOIP too much you get muted. Can even get banned

[rough crag]

@vagrant cargowanna see the 3 one taps i got with my trash vpo

[rain karma]

i've had a dude scream "cheeki breeki" (and smth else but i couldnt understand) and kick in a door xD me and my 2 friends lit his ass up as soon as we heard the door kick

[rough crag]

aka the sacred vpo

aka the chosen one

[vagrant cargo]

You can get banned for talking too long ??

[vagrant cargo]

yeah ok

[lapis sedge]

this is fine

[vagrant cargo]

@rough crag carry me instead of flaunting

[lapis sedge]

the delays will give it all the more creepiness

[honest shore]

not long, but for spam. They are related arguably.

[rough crag]

IDK THE MAPS

i dont even know the

custom extracts

[vagrant cargo]

I’ll show you

[rough crag]

i know interchange

[vagrant cargo]

You do the shooting

And stuff

[rough crag]

when i started i played interchange instead of customs

[vagrant cargo]

And I do the finding where we are

[vagrant cargo]

Weird but okay

[honest shore]

most importantly the stuff

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah I suck at everything except reading a map

So yknow

[rough crag]

@vagrant cargo

https://youtu.be/uJG-JA-xwW0

cant stop hitting da head

[vagrant cargo]

That’s my only purpose

[rough crag]

they were naked but

oh well

u cant really tell but i killed the last guy

[robust stirrup]

loool it's gotta be one of my favourite voice lines

[honest shore]

bots lol

[vagrant cargo]

What gun should I play with

As a poor with only lvl 1 traders

[rough crag]

i cut out the bit where they were racist :(((

[honest shore]

sks is a solid beginner

[rough crag]

i said friendly to them

but they said n word

so i killed them

[honest shore]

It be like that

[gloomy bobcat]

you can give the sks a try , this gun is great for low level players

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah but I just looked at it real quick

[robust stirrup]

personally i love playing with the mp-155

[vagrant cargo]

ISNT the vpo just better

[gloomy bobcat]

get the 20 rounds mag from peacekeeper

[vagrant cargo]

Since 30 rounds

[robust stirrup]

genuinely killed so many high levels with it on factory

[gloomy bobcat]

and you good to go

[honest shore]

SKS is cheaper and just feels better to me. VPO is also very solid and can have sights.

Jaeger sells OP sks that can have sights but I don't get the point of buying an sks for so much.

[vagrant cargo]

It’s a like a 15k difference

op sks is 31k

vpo is around that as well

comes with 30 rounder

[proven saddle]

vpo is just better

[vagrant cargo]

and accepts picatinny sights

[honest shore]

Quite a big difference

[proven saddle]

too bad bastions are always out of stock

[vagrant cargo]

no pso though

[honest shore]

Only early wipe

[shadow pecan]

all the dust covers with mounts were going for 70k

[proven saddle]

well yeah but i thought someone asked

[vagrant cargo]

They’re not out of stock rn

For me

Well actually more like 2 hours ago but still

[honest shore]

Skier hasn't refreshed in over an hour and there is still 6134.

[proven saddle]

traders are the same for everyone pretty sure

[shadow pecan]

how many Meds do i need for hideout/quest

or is it just for crafting

[proven saddle]

last time i checked they were all gone

[honest shore]

Might be server based, idk. Doesn't matter too much.

[shadow pecan]

these

[proven saddle]

had to use the rear sight with the mount

[vagrant cargo]

The only thing I dislike

Is that vpo doesn’t have a dovetail mount I think

[proven saddle]

right about none for hideout

i mean you need one for the medstation

but thats it

[honest shore]

They are pretty valuable but common. Your choice. If you craft them into AI-2s they sell better and you get hideout xp.

[shadow pecan]

ok

too lazy

[vagrant cargo]

Which is why op sks is better for woods imo

[honest shore]

If you get a bastion you can put sight on.

[vagrant cargo]

Why are ai2s expensive now and when do I get car kits

[proven saddle]

i always get fucked by someone sitting in a bush if i have a long range scope

[honest shore]

VPO is just worse, except the mag imo.

[vagrant cargo]

No sniping scopes with LL1

[proven saddle]

vpo is way better

[drifting bison]

barter a humpback for a car ll1 therapist

[proven saddle]

technically you can use the pilad

[shadow pecan]

:P

[proven saddle]

but its ass

[vagrant cargo]

and when can I actually buy it

[drifting bison]

ll2 therapist

[vagrant cargo]

The pilad is gross

[proven saddle]

actually its after a quest iirc

[honest shore]

That is a decent amount lol. You might need some for med case, idk.

[vagrant cargo]

ISNT ll2 therapist at like lvl 13 or something

[wraith nova]

Whats been everyones go to weapon build so far

[shadow pecan]

i got that from chem pt4

[drifting bison]

it is

[shadow pecan]

m4's

[drifting bison]

lvl 13 and 800k spent i believe

[proven saddle]

ak 74'

pp rounds

[honest shore]

400k.

[vagrant cargo]

I already have the money thing

Just need lvl

[wraith nova]

ive never used a modded m4 only the free one you get with usec

[honest shore]

And therapist buys so much its easy.

[bold kernel]

anyone trynna run a few games?

[vagrant cargo]

Imma need help with quests cuz I need xp

[honest shore]

#pvp-lfg

[proven saddle]

stock one is ass

[rough crag]

Is the scav junk box good

[proven saddle]

its a gift from god

[rough crag]

I never had enough money to get one last wipe

[honest shore]

Even modded M4s have so much recoil for me its weird.

[bold kernel]

i know im new

but ol

ok

[honest shore]

Save for it, buy it ASAP

[vagrant cargo]

M4s are outdated

Sorry the best gun is double barrel

[honest shore]

This just isn't the chat for that, this is questions. Common source of confusion, Don't worry about it.

[proven saddle]

^fax

[vagrant cargo]

Cheaper than a tokarev and insanely destructive

[shadow pecan]

im using a hybrid46 which is usually like 50k

[rough crag]

Fuck I just killed a geared guy to die to a pscav

Sadge

[honest shore]

Sadge

[proven saddle]

looks cool, its prob shit

[vagrant cargo]

Why do you kill so many men

[rough crag]

Idk

[bold kernel]

gotcha i thought that would fall under beginners assistace cuz i keep getting shat on and i need assistance lmao

[rough crag]

I spawned in

[vagrant cargo]

Factory user 🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️

[shadow pecan]

ok? thanks for being an ass ig lmao

[rough crag]

And he spammed me

So I hit him 11 dies

Until he died

[proven saddle]

try this

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[rough crag]

And then I used to voip to say I’m friendly

And I get tapped!

[honest shore]

Yeah, if you need advice this is the place. And the sherpa discord Alex put up has dedicated guides.

[rough crag]

But it’s fine

[proven saddle]

never trust anyone

[vagrant cargo]

With what gun what ammo

[rough crag]

Scav ak

So trash ammo

[vagrant cargo]

Oh

[honest shore]

PS or T45 usually.

T45 is flesh only

[rough crag]

It was a 5.56

Ak

[proven saddle]

t45 more like hiT45 times

[bold kernel]

thank you!!!!

[whole crest]

WHO DO I DO FOR CHEM 4

HELP

[shadow pecan]

are you eod?

[proven saddle]

caps bro

[rough crag]

I didn’t

[honest shore]

Ah interesting. Maybe warmegeddon then.

[somber rain]

most do skier, so they dont have to pay 1 million rubles

[whole crest]

no

[rough crag]

I was gonna kill the scav but

[proven saddle]

always skier

[rough crag]

I didn’t think he was that close

[whole crest]

1 mil roubles for what?

[honest shore]

A task.

[somber rain]

loyalty buyback

[shadow pecan]

it takes away around 0.20 rep from traders, so you should do the one that has the most rep

[proven saddle]

nah

[shadow pecan]

or you do skier

[vagrant cargo]

Tf is loyalty buyback

[proven saddle]

you can get it back

[shadow pecan]

and dont have to pay 1mil rub

[proven saddle]

easily

[vagrant cargo]

Why

[tiny marten]

i need to know my way around woods and for someone to guide me to usec camp

[whole crest]

dam

[shadow pecan]

so for chem pt4 you can give it to either prapor, therapist, or skier

[proven saddle]

sounds like you only need one or the other

[drifting bison]

#pvp-lfg

[proven saddle]

i recommend learning the map

[drifting bison]

@tiny marten

[honest shore]

Offline is a great way to do it. Or find someone in #pvp-lfg

[shadow pecan]

and if you give it to X trader, Y and Z trader gain a quest to get your rep backup

skier wants 1mil

[tiny marten]

i just dont know where im spawning

[shadow pecan]

prapor wants 10 m67 grendaes

and idk what therapist wants

[honest shore]

Something probably.

[vagrant cargo]

that sounds like an annoying quest

[whole crest]

how fast is it

[shadow pecan]

a child probably

[honest shore]

The soul in particular.

[shadow pecan]

how fast is what

[whole crest]

when do i get the gernade quest

[hardy wasp]

if you accidentally kill an ai scav will other scavs attack you or is it karma based

[drifting bison]

@tiny marten idk where im spawning either bro

[honest shore]

If you play offline and get a feel it will benefit you much more than having someone blindly lead you.

[shadow pecan]

if your negative i think you get shot

[tiny marten]

its so dumb how many pmc spawns there are

[drifting bison]

but

[proven saddle]

loads

[drifting bison]

not all of them spawn every time

[proven saddle]

check a map

[rough crag]

Whoops

[honest shore]

Its not negative, its like -3.0.

[drifting bison]

if you can find sniper rock you can figure it our

[shadow pecan]

oh ok

[rough crag]

I killed a pmc with a pistol this time but I died to tagilla

[rain karma]

how do i get a bigger pouch?

[shadow pecan]

punisher part 7

[hardy wasp]

what about boss/guards? will they start shooting at you or only karma baseD?

[proven saddle]

quests

[drifting bison]

but offline will definitely help

[shadow pecan]

or eod

[honest shore]

Scavs in area will attack you, even with high karma.

[drifting bison]

take 30mins to figure it out on a map

[sharp thicket]

do i just join a chat?

[honest shore]

Boss and guards get friendly at some point, but not immediately.

[austere violet]

grow up more as a kangaroo

[sharp thicket]

for beginners assistance

[drifting bison]

bring up pestily woods guide or 5min woods guide

[proven saddle]

if theres room usually yes

[sharp thicket]

ok

[honest shore]

You can also just ask here.

[sharp thicket]

anyone wanna help me

[drifting bison]

whats u[

[sharp thicket]

i have no idea what to do

[austere violet]

nah but its a questline for the epsilon

[drifting bison]

brand new?

[honest shore]

#sherpa-info

[sharp thicket]

yes

brand new

[rough crag]

Should I sell my tagilla helmet to Rahman

[proven saddle]

im down to explain but im done playing for the day

[austere violet]

or buying eod for the gamma

[drifting bison]

o

[rough crag]

Ragman

[hardy wasp]

i accidentally killed an ai scav that jumpscared me

[sharp thicket]

i played like 1 or 2 raids

[austere violet]

ect

[rough crag]

If I do I will have 98k

[hardy wasp]

and im just sitting in the room afraid

[rough crag]

I meant

[proven saddle]

i can explain but im done playing

[honest shore]

If you like hearing instead of protection. Otherwise you can use it if you want.

[rough crag]

983k

So I will be closer to scav junk

[sharp thicket]

i get the gist of teh game

i just need like a squad

[tall totem]

I’m getting pretty good at the game lol

[proven saddle]

if you think you do it means you dont

[honest shore]

#pvp-lfg for a squad, for a guide #sherpa-info

[tall totem]

I just need help with inventory management

[whole crest]

when do i get the no offence quest;

[proven saddle]

i think you need to restart, had a bug last wipe with it

Hop in a beginner chat VC and share screen. Someone will likely help you.

[whole crest]

[proven saddle]

[proven saddle]

yes

[rough crag]

@honest shore can I sell the osprey anywhere

[rain karma]

i have a DS Arms SA-58 but i am too scared to use it cuz i dont want it to be gone xD

[proven saddle]

ragman

[rough crag]

Ok

[honest shore]

Always check all traders unless you know. IDK.

[rough crag]

Do I need to repair it

Cus it’s on

4

[proven saddle]

above half

[rough crag]

Health

[honest shore]

Don't let gear fear get you.

[proven saddle]

or sell it

[honest shore]

Might make you more to sell it to fence then.

[proven saddle]

usually doesnt

[honest shore]

Fence takes everything

[proven saddle]

it depends

i think that one repairs alright

[honest shore]

Why I said might.

[proven saddle]

@tall totem still want the help?

[rough crag]

Fence says 20k

[proven saddle]

not worth

[lapis sedge]

which trader do i go to for kalashnikov guns?

[proven saddle]

repair above 50% of original durability and sell it

[proven saddle]

prapor

[lapis sedge]

wasn't it the fat guy?

ah

[rough crag]

I don’t think I can

[lapis sedge]

thank you

[rough crag]

It looks like it’s already been repaired before

Cus it’s max is 30.1

[proven saddle]

fence it then

[somber rain]

just got head, eyes by some guy with an sks at night on customs

amazing game

love it

[bold kernel]

where is the best place to start at

[proven saddle]

sounds to me like you got outplayed

[proven saddle]

youtube

[somber rain]

mf just shot me out of no where

[bold kernel]

lol

[proven saddle]

im joking but at the same time its true

[drifting bison]

@bold kernel you mean in terms of resources or map?

[proven saddle]

i think he meant map

but still, youtube

[drifting bison]

customs imho

[bold kernel]

ok

[proven saddle]

customs is kinda hard

[rough crag]

Ok so I sold everything good I have pretty much

[proven saddle]

its really pvp intensive and all the chads are there atm

[rough crag]

Sold my svds and mdr

And ump

[bold kernel]

i have no idea wtf i am doing

[rough crag]

And tagilla mask

And now I have a lucky scav

Box

[proven saddle]

i can explain a few things if you wanna get in a call

[drifting bison]

if u dont face the music now it will be harder later

might as well rip the bandaid off

[honest shore]

#sherpa-info

[drifting bison]

and most early quests are on customs

[rough crag]

So how does a lucky scav box work

Btw

[proven saddle]

yeah but he needs to get used to the mechanics

[honest shore]

Takes up 16 slots, stores 60 (I think) slots of barter items

[drifting bison]

so u cant do that on customs???

[bold kernel]

also why does it take 10+ mins to get into a match

[rough crag]

What’s a barter item

[bold kernel]

Thats what I am saying

[proven saddle]

servers overloaded

[honest shore]

Anything you don't shoot, wear, or eat pretty much.

[bold kernel]

ok

[rough crag]

Ok

[drifting bison]

@bold kernel the path you take depends on the type of player you want to be

[honest shore]

Lower queue time by allowing more servers. It is auto by standard so you will only join the best ping server.

[lapis sedge]

ohh

i was wondering. here i was thinking my connection was ass the whole time

[honest shore]

If you open the launcher and select servers manually it can use any of those and then you get much faster times. 3 minutes average.

7 minutes is the higher end usually.

2 minutes is about how long it takes minimum.

[shadow pecan]

can two people let me kill them for Wounded beast

[lapis sedge]

LOL

[honest shore]

Server doesn't allow boosting.

[rough crag]

So

How does

The

Scav box

Make me money

[shadow pecan]

it gives you space

alot of it

[honest shore]

It doesn't make you money, it saves you money. Store barter items and you will not have to buy them later.

For tasks, hideout, etc.

[rough crag]

Why did I buy it then

I’m bad

How am I gonna get my money back....

[honest shore]

The way you got money for the scav box

[rough crag]

Uhhhhhh

I don’t remember

How I got to 800k

Atleast

[honest shore]

Its worth it. Go through your inventory and put anything you can in your scav box.

[rough crag]

Done

[shadow pecan]

do shoreline stashes

or interchange

[honest shore]

Now if you find more barter items in raid you can save them much better.

[shadow pecan]

interchange is faster but more people do them

[rough crag]

I thought u like

Put stuff in the box

And then sell it all

Or smt

[drifting bison]

its literally just storage

[rough crag]

Idk I never used it before

Me just noob

[honest shore]

You can, but that's not the best use.

[drifting bison]

so you dont have a bunch of loose dogshit laying around your stash

[honest shore]

Its just storage, and barter items take up a lot of space.

Probably barter items take up more space than anything else in the stash. Unless you keep bad rigs or backpacks which you shouldn't.

[drifting bison]

yeah

that or meds

[honest shore]

Weapons also take up a lot.

And meds you don't need to store luckily. You can just buy.

[drifting bison]

if i see a full salewa its coming with me

[honest shore]

That is true.

[drifting bison]

could prob fill those slots with 2 better items but idk

my brain just says u need this

[honest shore]

Its a very useful item, and you're taught to get them with therapist tasks lol.

[drifting bison]

yea

[honest shore]

But Ifaks and Afaks are just better since they fit in container better. At least for standard users.

[drifting bison]

afaks are bae

[honest shore]

Indeed

But what about container full of Grizzly?

Very interesting...

[drifting bison]

1 grizzly 1ibuprofen 1 propital lets go

[honest shore]

Amazing how well modelled everything in tarkov is too. I had a gunfight through a sliver between truck and truckbed earlier.

[rough crag]

Ok so now that I have a lucky scav

[honest shore]

CMS if you can.

[drifting bison]

yeah no other game comes close

[rough crag]

Should I just go scav on interchange

And pick everything up

[drifting bison]

the times that i've been like "can i do that"

[rough crag]

And put it in da box

[honest shore]

You can, but since you have so much you can get better loot with PMC.

[drifting bison]

and i can

[rough crag]

I sold it all tho

I sold the

Mdr

Svds

Ump

A m4

[whole crest]

muiahaHAHAHA

LABS TIME

[honest shore]

All? Ah interesting. Then yeah scav.

[rough crag]

Mostly

I have a vepr

A m4

And a

Thing

Sks

[honest shore]

A thing yes.

[rough crag]

I still have the osprey but it’s useless

[honest shore]

SKS PMC can get more than a scav usually but that's your decision.

[rough crag]

My scav also has an mp-133

[rough crag]

So I can complete my prapor task!

[drifting bison]

😮

[honest shore]

SKS over MP-133 any day

[honest shore]

Noice

[rough crag]

But my task...

[honest shore]

Then fine

[rough crag]

Yay

[whole thistle]

swag

[honest shore]

Alternating is a good strat anyways.

[whole thistle]

133 is crig

[tranquil vapor]

anyone wanna run with a noob?

[honest shore]

Crig?

[honest shore]

#pvp-lfg

[whole thistle]

cringe

[honest shore]

Ah yes, he refuses to go get Jaeger soo...

[drifting bison]

just finna say i found a 60 rd pmag full of m62 underneath greenscreen room on metal shelves

[whole thistle]

lmao

[tranquil vapor]

ty talk

[drifting bison]

those spawns are fuckin cracked

[honest shore]

GL

[whole thistle]

you cant put m62 in a 60 round pmag lol

[drifting bison]

300. blackout

m62 tracer

[whole thistle]

oh that

[honest shore]

You can if you try hard enough!

[whole thistle]

yeah

[whole thistle]

just takes a nail file and a little elbow grease

[drifting bison]

some vas

[honest shore]

At least 12 oz of grease

[drifting bison]

little goldenstar

[honest shore]

painkillers of course. For the mag.

[drifting bison]

vaseline to lube up the rounds

fit em in there

[honest shore]

I like how basic ibuprofen is better than actual painkillers. Very interesting.

[whole crest]

can anyone guide me through labs rq?

[drifting bison]

ibuprofen slaps

[whole crest]

fr

[drifting bison]

has me seeing crispy for like 5 mins

[honest shore]

MMMMMmmmm. Tasty

[drifting bison]

i dont get how vas is a pk tho

imagine in the middle of combat and just holdup

[honest shore]

Magik

[drifting bison]

lemme smear this petroleum jelly on me lips

[noble mauve]

can someone help me do the modify mp-133 task

[drifting bison]

cant have them going dry in this gunfight

[rough crag]

Oh fuck

How did

It become

3:42am

[somber rain]

So I was just in a raid, and my game started stuttering like crazy

And then my game crashed

And my pc froze

[shadow pecan]

how much ram do you got?

[somber rain]

Tf happened

[shadow pecan]

and how many sticks

[somber rain]

32gb :/

2 16gb sticks

[shadow pecan]

thats fucked idk

[somber rain]

I had a task item and I was on my way to extract too 😭

[shadow pecan]

didnt they make that option to put more of the load on your gpu

[somber rain]

I'm just reconnecting

[shadow pecan]

i forgot what it was called

[somber rain]

This game is wack

Hopefully I didn't get shot and killed when I get back in

It was a night customs and I was in a ditch, so I think ill be fine

since when did skier ll2 have the rfb?

[rough crag]

Some how I made money

I was at 41k after buying that box

But now I’m at 281k

Slowly coming back

[marble hinge]

i honestly dont even know how to make money lol

i just run woods

and get loot

[whole crest]

the most meh labs run

[rough crag]

I usually just run factory

[whole crest]

ever

[rough crag]

Rip

[honest shore]

Look it up on the wiki

[noble mauve]

im missing one thing lol

thanks for the help lmfao

[honest shore]

What is it you are missing?

[drifting bison]

this guy out here like i know what im missing but can u tell me

[honest shore]

Someone bought it and was at 12 after. 12. Not 12k. I was 14k.

[whole thistle]

my friend just no scoped some dude in the face who had rogue loot lmao

r700 meta

[honest shore]

R700 no scope meta

Which map do you need for hideout now? Was it factory?

[indigo tartan]

can anybody sherpa me on woods man these qquests are so ass..

[honest shore]

#sherpa-info is where you get a sherpa

[violet narwhal]

yo can someone give me their opinion im in abit of a pickle

[honest shore]

You'd probably get an answer faster if you just ask directly.

[rough crag]

Mannnn

This grenade made NO sound

[honest shore]

Some headsets will automatically cancel out loud noises.

[rough crag]

I had no headset on

The grenade just made no sound

[honest shore]

Then get tarkov'd

[rough crag]

That’s so sad

Killed two pmcs with the sacred vpo

[honest shore]

Either that or tinnitus so bad you can't hear lol. Which is a thing.

[rough crag]

MonkaS

[shell needle]

How should i go by getting my first few quest done?

[rough crag]

Idk

Do them

[whole thistle]

just go do em man idk

theres no special way to kill 5 scavs

[honest shore]

I'd recommend the ones in Woods first and then Customs. Introduction is important and helps with prapor's tasks as you can buy 133's from Jaeger. Prapors search task is not completely necessary right off the bat.

[rough crag]

MAN THESE NO DUST COVER VPOS ARE SO SACRED

[whole thistle]

inspect items until level 2 then get introduction from mechanic and do that first

[rough crag]

A GIFT FROM GOD

[whole thistle]

i hate how saggy ak springs are

[rough crag]

i love them

;)))))

[honest shore]

Aim is sacred, all you need.

[whole thistle]

you have no idea how many times you got reported

[rough crag]

the last pmc i killed

guy came behind me

[shell needle]

Thanks

[rough crag]

i turned around and one tapped

[honest shore]

Looks like you are going against the worst players lol. If I get a PMC kill it is a headshot almost guaranteed. Or I had the jump on them.

[whole thistle]

i crisply tapped some dude at like 40m once with a p226, he was guaranteed pissed

he had a scoped sks and a 6b13

[rough crag]

nah

he gave me 14 points on thorax

two blacked out arms

blacked out stomach

[whole thistle]

i have a lot of actual fights, although surprise attacks and headshots are still kinda common

[rough crag]

i extracted with a heavy bleed

[honest shore]

Yeah that is really bad aim. A good player would kill your thorax or head immediately. Blacking out everything else means he is shooting everywhere, the worst strategy.

[whole thistle]

I was using a rogue mutant with bp and some mf killed me because he surprised me after i killed his teammate

[somber rain]

and ice cream cone is done boys

[whole thistle]

i was very disappointed in myself

[whole thistle]

swag

[somber rain]

fr

[rough crag]

he barely opened the door tbh

[somber rain]

time to night factory to get postman pat

[whole thistle]

i didnt have to bother with it because i killed tagilla day 2

thank god

pretty much yeah

this game has a high skill floor lol

[honest shore]

I said the opposite of that. Only thing worse than aiming at everything but what you already hit or vitals is missing.

[rough crag]

wait

[whole thistle]

to be even semi decent you need to know a lot

[rough crag]

this vpo had a dust cover.....

[somber rain]

is it worth doing bunker pt 2 for the extra xp and rep or should i just leave it

[rough crag]

maybe every vpo is sacred

[somber rain]

that task has been a bitch in the past

[whole thistle]

You couldnt tell? bro

[whole thistle]

you get more quests after it

yes

[somber rain]

really?

[rough crag]

L

[whole thistle]

its a quest to kill raiders in d2 but yeah

[somber rain]

fuck

it does

[whole thistle]

which caliber

[honest shore]

Yeah you should be dead 100% repeeking like that

[rough crag]

im just a god

what can i say

[whole thistle]

keep it until you get skier 2 tbh

its not too big anyway

yeah

17 rds isnt enough for that piece of shit

[honest shore]

Feels like 3 rounds after you hold LMB lol

[whole thistle]

yep

[rough crag]

Decent

[honest shore]

Any raid you get out is a good raid, but vector is noice

[whole thistle]

decent yea

whats in the rig

[somber rain]

excuse me game?

i jsut unloaded 10 rounds into a guy's chest and he wasnt wearing body armor

he two taps me

[wispy lodge]

beginners guide to Interchange

[somber rain]

i did 300 damage, to his thorax...

fuckin bullshit

[whole thistle]

you were using the official airsoft glock idiot

[somber rain]

it was a pm 😭

[whole thistle]

mustve been beaming stomach

[somber rain]

still

it wasn't even 3m away from eachother, and it was in postman pat room

[honest shore]

Rule 7

Guy was posting his YouTube channel. No advertising.

[whole thistle]

Rule 7

[whole thistle]

like that red keycard mf

god damn

[honest shore]

If someone asks. Nobody was asking for Interchange stash help

[wispy lodge]

it was a beginners guide to interchange

[somber rain]

i still cant find a gas analzyer 💀

[honest shore]

Yeah, if someone asks by all means. Otherwise you are just advertising.

[whole thistle]

went interchange and checked every tech store and filing cabinet twice and found 0

[somber rain]

yeap

[wispy lodge]

ok

[whole thistle]

my friend got two flash drives tho

[somber rain]

i refuse to go interchange, anyways

[whole thistle]

he gave me one then we both died

[somber rain]

i've gone 4 times, and died to a camper each time

[whole thistle]

im a sigma male i have no fear

[somber rain]

all in this one wipe

they weren't even near techlight

they were just near escalators

[whole thistle]

For some reason its WAY more scary to be in a raid where my team died and im last alive than it is to be in a solo raid

[somber rain]

sitting there with shotguns

[whole thistle]

i noticed that earlier

if you mod the fuck out of it

416

[honest shore]

It is a carbine, so it has some advantages.

[whole thistle]

its way more expensive to get the 416 low recoil than m4

[honest shore]

But I haven't had it in game.

[rough crag]

FUCK

HOW HAS IT BEEN 40 MINS

I SAID I WAS GONNA DO MY LAST RAID 40MINS AGO

FUCK

[honest shore]

I'd imagine the 416 would be lower recoil off the bat though.

[rough crag]

It’s almost 5am 😭😭😭😭

THIS IS MY LAST RAID

RN

[honest shore]

GN sleep tight GL

[whole thistle]

no

its higher

[rough crag]

One more...

[whole thistle]

higher recoil + higher rof makes it way worse when budget

[honest shore]

Really? interesting.

[whole thistle]

156 vs 147

[honest shore]

I can't even handle M4 recoil though.

[whole thistle]

better ergo tho

[honest shore]

Its pretty good

[somber rain]

no, it's pretty much meta ammo for it

[honest shore]

It has a nice balance between pen and flesh

[rough crag]

Guys if I come here and say one more raid

Tell me NO

[honest shore]

K no. Go to bed

[rough crag]

I need to stop....

[rough crag]

I’m already loading loot pools

BUT THIS IS THE LAST ONE

I SWEAR

I need to change my name too

Fixed

[honest shore]

Just do it in the morning... Oh wait.

[rough crag]

Oh no...

Imma set an alarm for 9am

Then play again

A smooth 4 hours sleep

[honest shore]

To be more in detail, it goes through all armor but level 6 pretty well and does 51 flesh. M995 has better pen but worse flesh. Only upgrade really.

[whole thistle]

2nd best 5.45

[honest shore]

Are you trolling at this point?

[whole thistle]

best 7.62 nato

[honest shore]

Just trolling then lol. You can check ammo here: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Ballistics#Angles_and_ricochets

If it is all green it has great penetration. If it isn't it likely has great flesh.

If it is in the middle its mediocre at both.

[somber rain]

just had the most fearful encounter with voip on night factory

im running to gate 3 and some guy in window hallway says, "state your name"

i tell him my name and purpose and he says that i may pass

fuckin scary

[honest shore]

Lol nice monty python reference.

Did he ask you your favorite color?

[somber rain]

no

nearly shit my pants tho

get me some better image quality and i can tell you

he's to the right of the tree

[honest shore]

Clicking it doesn't make it better quality

[somber rain]

the left tree

[rough crag]

I finally did my prapor task

[honest shore]

Yeah, but this is like 240p

[honest shore]

Noice

[whole thistle]

which one lol

[somber rain]

are you trolling? 💀

[honest shore]

Yes.

[whole thistle]

Bruh

[honest shore]

They did it with all their ammo.

[somber rain]

ah

[whole thistle]

It's ok

It's just a dovetail kobra
