[steep tendon]

Oh

[exotic jungle]

e.g. acting as a meatshield for a close friend

[flint tide]

can someone help me gunsmith part 1? i modded the shotgun and the game does not let me transfer it

[steep tendon]

Tbh it’s probably a good idea unless ur insane or go with a group

[exotic jungle]

and yeah people with gear still have gear fear for some of them

losing millions in an afternoon can be excruciating for some

that's something you've got to deal with, or you'll end up still afraid at lvl 40 lmao

though you have to be rational

[languid temple]

make sure dura <60

[flint tide]

ty man

[deft dust]

i take in a T5/6 as many raids possible as well as the best guns/ammo in my stash, higher survival rates when playing against players especially right now

[elder ridge]

Can someone guard me while I plant stuff in customs plz?

[exotic jungle]

I find my best survival rate is when I play with shotguns, even if I'm complete trash with them

[flint tide]

<3

[exotic jungle]

since I can't touch anything even with slugs, I just play tactically and try to close down

[deft dust]

I dont think shotguns are bad at all, magnum buck the legs or slug the chest, works alot of the time imo

[languid temple]

algs, applies for all gunsmith so just remember 🙂

[main brook]

delivery from the past is driving me fucking crazy how am i meant to do this shit

[exotic jungle]

is it the quest where you have to get something in customs and plant it in factory?

[cunning lion]

Yeah thats the quest

Just grab the thing from customs and put it away for a future raid

I ran into factory with a pistol and with a little VOIP everything workedout

[exotic jungle]

I'll never dare to say that shotguns are bad, I've had too many (torso, chest) by 12/70 ap, I'm the one who's trash with them

[cunning lion]

Heh

I hate slugs so much

[exotic jungle]

thank god AP isn't readily accessible anymore

[cunning lion]

I hit a dude 4 times with slugs and he just shrugged it off

[main brook]

@exotic jungleyeah

[deft dust]

I miss AP 20s 😦 can't even buy them at jaeger lvl 4 atm such a shame

[exotic jungle]

yeah I just use buckshot and aim at legs

[cunning lion]

Buckshot is nice, you can leg someone to death or spray their face with pellets

[glacial moss]

id take buckshot over ap20 any day

[cunning lion]

Agreed

[exotic jungle]

For the customs part, tarcone's office (the big red warehouse) is a top point of interest on the west of the map, there are multiple quests asking ppl to go there, and there's a safe + PCs that can contain pretty neat stuff (a friend of mine looted a bitcoin there). It's right next to spawns and extract so PMCs are enticed to go there. Usually they take the most directs paths, and the warehouse itself is pretty exposed.

If you understand when to get there, you're pretty much golden for that side of the quest.

For the factory side, you should learn spawns, pray that you have a good one, maybe hide a bit or play at night and hide + use some voip, use your best gear... The easiest way is to play in group

[amber wave]

if I have to bring a shotgun to woods what ammo should I bring?

[exotic jungle]

slugs

[cunning lion]

Bring an SKS?

[amber wave]

the poleva blue ones?

[exotic jungle]

nah there's a quest that asks to kill 10 scavs on woods

I'm still not there yet

[cunning lion]

You mean shootout picnic from prapor?

Kill 15 scavs on woods?

[flint estuary]

as a new to the game lvl 11 shitter, should I keep an Antique Vase for the quest or just sell it?

[cunning lion]

Honestly just bring an SKS or a OP-SKS slap a scope on it and you're golden

[amber wave]

Im trying to run a double barrel for scav kills

[cunning lion]

Oh god

[amber wave]

just dont know what ammo is gonna have any sort of range

[cunning lion]

Yeah slugs are your only choice for range

[open apex]

can u not buy the marked key for customs dorms?

[exotic jungle]

hmmm now that I think of it

[cunning lion]

Marked key has been removed from flea

[exotic jungle]

besides AP20, slugs force you to shoot scavs in the head, I can't think of a round that'll damage a tier 3 armor

[cunning lion]

Aside from Flechettes?

Its either Flechettes or AP20

I think .50 BMG works

[exotic jungle]

has it?

[cunning lion]

Yeah

[steep tendon]

Yo is the marked key good? It’s a gold key, first time I seen something legendary and didn’t know how good it was, it’s like RB something

[cunning lion]

Labs card as well

Take that shit and run

[exotic jungle]

okay

yeah take that shit

[steep tendon]

Should I sell it or use it

[cunning lion]

Stick it up your butt

Use it

[exotic jungle]

depends on the key

[cunning lion]

You can't sell it anyways

[exotic jungle]

I'd say

[cunning lion]

Not on flea anyways

I curse those who get weapon cases from marked

Lucky bastards

[steep tendon]

Ph it’s called RB-BL

BK*

Oh wait sorry

RB-VO

[cunning lion]

Ah thats reserve

[exotic jungle]

when in doubt check tarkov market

[steep tendon]

I found it in a jacket

[exotic jungle]

rb-vo is worth 80k

you can sell it imo

[steep tendon]

Bruh

So it’s shit

[exotic jungle]

and buy it later if you need it

[steep tendon]

I’m not selling it gonna keep it

[vast sentinel]

My junk box and stash is filling up quite quickly and I am not sure what stuff I should keep and what I should sell. Is there any system to knowing what is useless and what isn't?

[steep tendon]

I found a key that was worth 1.5 mil once as a scab

Scav

Died with it tho

Hutton

[exotic jungle]

I've just checked, no marked key room is banned from the flea

[cunning lion]

Really?

I thought it was

[exotic jungle]

nah, it's just too expensive, fees are skyhigh, so people would rather barter for it than pay fees

just uncheck bartering on flea

[cunning lion]

Ah interesting

[exotic jungle]

the economy is a bit fucked up

there's a whole economy of items that are too expensive to be sold for cash on flea

which is a problem since fees are made to limit items' prices

[jagged jasper]

Can the keys in the doc case lose found in raid status?

[cunning lion]

Yes

[jagged jasper]

Sheee

[exotic jungle]

any gear that you bring in raid loses its fir status

I know what it's like, looting a key, putting it in your keytool, and forget about it

[jagged jasper]

My smooth brain just up and wasted 2 600k keys xd

[exotic jungle]

lmao

[cunning lion]

Oooof

[exotic jungle]

just gift it to a friend if you're playing in group

that way you'll feel like a good samaritan 🧠

[cunning lion]

I've found Ultra Medical key before while taking D-2 extract

Always check them jacket pockets

[jagged jasper]

Hah been trying to get some folks to play but damn game ain't cheap even with sales on

[exotic jungle]

got it on reserve also

now I'm checking every coat on this map

their loot pool seems pretty neat

[cunning lion]

Jackets are nice surprises

[exotic jungle]

yeah

AI scavs seem to love them

[plain knoll]

bruh anyone got any tips for finding regular splints in raid? cause i need 5 of them for a daily task

[golden quest]

rt st good?

[exotic jungle]

any medical spawn

[crude grail]

check med spawns and scavs

[golden quest]

or car keys?

[crude grail]

rb-st?

[golden quest]

yeah

[crude grail]

yes that is good lol.

[plain knoll]

lul thats what i been trying to do on interchange, shorline and customs i have found nun in the past 6 raids

[exotic jungle]

ultra med, emercom on interchange/woods, white bishop and so on

[golden quest]

i died with it i could sell it to therapist

[plain knoll]

gotcha ill try woods next i didnt even think about that tbh

this will give me 278k rubles and 42k xp lol

[exotic jungle]

don't forget reserve

talking about ultra med key, the place where I've found the most bandages and splints this wipe is... ultra med

if anybody loots this key

just sell it

[plain knoll]

i dont have ultra med key sadly

[exotic jungle]

that's straight garbage for its price tag

[plain knoll]

yeah it was pretty doggy towards the end of last wipe

[exotic jungle]

didn't play last wipe, I've stopped when bitcoin was at its top

and returned this wipe

[plain knoll]

gotcha

[exotic jungle]

ultra med and techlight used to be the shit

[plain knoll]

last wipe was my first wipe made it to lvl 43 then quit till wipe day this wipe

[exotic jungle]

now it seems most of us just go there for fun

[hybrid tendon]

Anyone need help with Lighthouse quests (EU)?

[plain knoll]

yeah i think begining of last wipe was the last time the techlight and ultra med were good with dynamic loot its kinda more stacked on maps like shorline lighthouse and woods since loot is a lot more spread out all over the map high tier loot that is

[exotic jungle]

you're right

on interchange you'd better hit all computers than hit techlight imo

[plain knoll]

yeah youd prolly get out with a lot more loot

usually on interchange now to make money you hit computers, back of goshan, and back of oli

[olive oracle]

do AI scavs loot dead pmc's?

[exotic jungle]

I think they should balance that out

[plain knoll]

yeah they can tomb

[olive oracle]

broooo some ai scav straight up robbed me

thats messed up

[plain knoll]

meaning you didnt get your stuff back in insurance?

[olive oracle]

no i was doing a scav run and killed 2 pmc's and one of them had a fuckton of loot and while going through their bags some ai scav walked up and took one of his nice ass guns

[plain knoll]

damn lmao yeah tbh if the gun is worth enough id just kill him and dip

i mean whats it like minus .03 for killing one scav

[olive oracle]

i would have but their were like 4 scavs there, and by the time i realized i got robbed i couldnt find the guy, plus i was like almost dead so i took the rigs and dipped

[plain knoll]

gotcha

bruh i hope i can get these splints cause that 42k xp would be real nice

[drifting lichen]

should i sell them to fence or wait for flee

[crude grail]

sooo

[clear tusk]

where do u get them?

[amber wave]

its 700K for the flea fee

[drifting lichen]

customs

[bold kernel]

can someone who knows woods help me do intro

[wheat terrace]

Yea let me hop on real quick

@bold kernel In a beginner chat

[ancient shuttle]

Roler. sell or keep. I'm lvl 5 rn

[crimson jasper]

50k on flea

[timid wadi]

Sell

[tribal garnet]

sell to therapist

[ancient shuttle]

ty! also dumb question. need a tape measure for security upgrade. any places I should look?

[wet solar]

how do ppl reach lvl 7 on snipers if you can only get 3 points per match?

[tribal garnet]

like i mean if u know lighthouse scavving onto lighthouse and checking construction site is very good lol

[ancient shuttle]

ok. I'll try to see if I can find one. thanks

[jagged jasper]

Interchange also gave hideout and electronic mats well during my scav runs

[flint estuary]

so I noticed AI scavs not all spawn at the start of the raid, is it like a fixed time spawn for them or they just decide to drop whenever?

[burnt pagoda]

is the RFB good or nah

[flint estuary]

this a scam?

[wispy marten]

You only need to get level 5, just take a mosin with cheap ammo and spam reload it then extract. Mentor gives +3 sniper levels and shooter born in heaven gives +1. You’ll need level 9 for psycho sniper eventually

[wispy marten]

They spawn randomly throughout the raid, usually where there isn’t any players around

[wet solar]

yeah, im doing this, ive done it like 10 times and i havent even gotten 1/10 of a level. i load like 40 bullets at 300 rubles each every 10 mins due to loading times to go up 3 small points when i need hundreds

[inland marlin]

good enough

[burnt pagoda]

lol that's all I needed to hear, thank you

[wispy marten]

Are you extracting or leaving? You should get more than that. I usually take in as much ammo as you can carry and just watch the skills tab. If you hover sniper skill then it’ll tell you when you stop gaining exp. then it’s safe to extract

If you leave you lose the exp though afaik

[misty ginkgo]

Personally i enjoy it a lot.

My favorite cheap gun.

[glacial moss]

yes

[burnt pagoda]

FS, I'm ballin on a budget so cheap good guns are up my ally currently

[jolly oak]

will tagilla kill you if you are scav?

[bold kernel]

im kinda confused on how these voice chats work. Why when I join an empty rom I hear other people who are in raid?

[glacial moss]

if u have low fence rep i think yeah

[brittle gate]

I had 0.3 fence rep and he immediately attacked me

[misty ginkgo]

Slap a sight on it and a grip and it's a budget chad killer. Use some M80 or better.

[misty ginkgo]

I think you need to have like 4+

[burnt pagoda]

Rodger that, im about try it in a raid

call me timmy the tank

[wet solar]

you dont lose it

[wet solar]

i stop when i see the red arrow. thats about 2-3 points

thats like 30 ammo

[wispy marten]

That’s about right, should be less than 100 points to get to level 5 which isn’t that bad, 30-40 raids

Depending on what level you are now

[wet solar]

should i go past the red arrow?

[wet solar]

how many rounds should i load, because the red arrow appears after like 30 rounds

also i think its more than that

[keen viper]

Can weapon cases still spawn in the marked room? I have heard they were removed from the loot pool - but I am wondering how people get them weapon cases with the found in raid status. Surely they won't all be from the boss hunting questline, right?

[wispy willow]

probably selling their christmas tree weapon cases

[tough oyster]

how are labs these days? just got my first keycard

[wispy marten]

Hover over the red arrow it should say the % you’re gaining. When it goes over 100% and you don’t gain anymore then you can extract

[wet solar]

any maps u recommend to avoid any combat and do it fast?

[tough oyster]

interchange or woods

[wispy marten]

Lighthouse probably easiest to extract if you know them since you get all extracts most of the time. If not then woods is safest but longer to extract

[wet solar]

i dont know lighthouse unfortunately

[tough oyster]

nobody really walks around the perimeter of interchange at the 40-30 minute mark

and u can do stash runs at the same time

[wet solar]

i do know interchange, so ill run that

[wet solar]

i know there are other players who just do the stashes on interchange from the start so that might be something ill run into though

but interchange seems simple enough

[tough oyster]

just be careful of highway scavs, i just run through the parking lot if i have to go to emercom

also dont bring bag for hole in wall extract

can also bring cash for vehcile extract and camp the roof of power

u leveling sniper skill?

[wet solar]

ye

i stacked my pouch full of ammo

[tough oyster]

i gotta look up how levelling works

[wet solar]

i was thinking of bringing a bag to do stash runs at the same time

since emercom is close to hole in the wall

but i might not have emercom

[earnest sail]

whats the best cheap armor+helmet I can get from flea?

[river yarrow]

What's the best early 7.62x39 ammo early on? Level 1 traders, just unlocked Jaeger.

[wispy marten]

PS

The best ammo overall at that level

[river yarrow]

Thank you 🙂

[pearl pier]

at what fence rep level do i start to see positive changes?

[keen viper]

Why the fuck is USB-A 60K+ right now?

Holy shit.

[dire hull]

Hey! So I have these 3 quests Chemical - Part 4, Out of curiosity, Big customer
When I do the quest all 3 will be done, or I have to choose which one I complete, and if so which one should I take

[glacial hound]

So i have Jaeger 0.19 rep and need 0.20 for level 2, is there another way to level him up without completing his tasks?

[wispy marten]

You choose one and the other 2 fail, after that you get 2 quests from the two you didn’t pick and you’ll have to give them something to earn the rep back. Skier is usually the safest option as you have to give him 1 mil roubles if you don’t choose him

[dire hull]

holy moly. okay thanks

[ember pendant]

You choose one. It's up to you which one you pick. I typically take the grenade case from skier, but you can pick whichever

[wispy marten]

And all the rewards are around the same value anyway, you’ll also unlock a helmet from ragman if you choose skier, doesn’t mean a whole lot but you can’t unlock it any other way

[main brook]

do backpacks give u any protection?

[glacial hound]

no

[wet solar]

hovering over the red arrow doesnt show the % im gaining

[dire hull]

you get a grenade case??

oooh that is the unknown reward right

[bold kernel]

anyone able to take me through woods to unlock jaeger

[wispy marten]

Hmm, hover over somewhere around the skill it should show it. It might be that it’s not in negatives yet so it doesn’t show

If it’s not the red arrow then it’s just the picture maybe

[wet solar]

im about to check and see

[tall owl]

Ok so melee weapons are actually useless

i was hitting a guy that was DC'ed and before i killed him with my melee he loaded back in and shot me

ran out of stamina twice

[upbeat elk]

Gotta headshot

[tall owl]

i did

[upbeat elk]

U probably didnt

Gotta aim above the head

[tall owl]

literally standing in front of him aiming above face

209 dmg in 9 hits

[upbeat elk]

Well that just shows u that u didnt hit his head

[willow ocean]

trying to get 400k spent more on jaegar,what things do i buy from him that he actually will buy back?

[burnt pagoda]

i love when your 20 feet from extraction with 30 sec left and servers go down

[tall owl]

There was blood comin out of his forehead so 🤷‍♂️

[upbeat elk]

But the dmg shows u didnt hit the head

[tall owl]

you always extract if servers go down

[upbeat elk]

Head doesnt have 209 hp...

[wispy marten]

If you’re level 15 then buy antique axes from flea and sell them to him

[burnt pagoda]

i didnt

it said reconnect but when i did it was over

[willow ocean]

but i need 400k more spend not sold mate

[tall owl]

Then servers didnt go down, you just crashed

[upbeat elk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQusXAKmJq8&ab_channel=Trak

@tall owl

[upbeat elk]

Its the same

[wispy marten]

Selling to traders also increases spent roubles on them

[willow ocean]

oh

[burnt pagoda]

it said "server down" does that mean something else?

[tall owl]

idk whenever servers died i always extracted, when i come back to tarkov it starts on the scav loot screen

[burnt pagoda]

i hear ya,Tark is a unforgiving game lol

[gaunt trout]

anyone know what gun i should use for shooter born

[carmine surge]

Anyone struggling with levelling up peacekeeper heres this

[ancient shuttle]

what are chainlets good for? Just money?

[inland marlin]

my god just buy dollars

[upbeat elk]

Anything that you can headshot with from 100m. DMR/Sniper. Whatever works for you.

I would use m1a or similar probably

[carmine surge]

buy it then sell it

[tall owl]

nothing dont bother picking them up

[inland marlin]

buy dollars and then keep them

[ancient shuttle]

okay ty

[inland marlin]

youll need them. i buy 9000 dollars a day

fuck pk

[carmine surge]

Im level 16 you're 44 we are not in the same boat

[manic python]

did they change customs from 35m to 25m?

[tough oyster]

someone explain this to me, if i level up sniper skill until i hit 50%, and then wait 16 mins, i can continue to level it at 100% speed until i hit 50% again?

[tall owl]

Was this close to wiping a three man as scav, but of course my game lags when the last guy is shooting at me 😴

[upbeat elk]

You will still use them. No point in buying/selling other things and losing money when u can just buy dollars and spend them later.

[flint furnace]

whats the best way to get money spent on skier

[tall owl]

Sell shit to him instead of mechanic

he pays decently well for it

[ancient shuttle]

any good place to find classic matches?

[pearl pier]

spawned in as a scav with a STM9 and then got betrayed 30 seconds later

i love this game

[steel basin]

M133 Shotgun quest, you need lvl 2 trader to complete? I buy the once for barter and put the pistol stock but dont get accepted

[severe girder]

is the standard SKS and OP SKS essentially the same thing stats wise?

if im not modding it

[barren sapphire]

yes, but the op-sks can take prapor-scopes right out of the box

[olive bough]

You mean gunsmith part 1?

[steel basin]

yes Alespic

[severe girder]

thanks. whats an okay prapor lvl 1 scope?

[olive bough]

Did you follow the wiki?

[torn lake]

I find it very hard to do the punisher series, yet its so important for the account. How do I get better in running shoreline and not being first to die or last to kill scavs?

[barren sapphire]

the PSO scope

[steel basin]

wiki says levl 2 item

[wispy marten]

No

[barren sapphire]

sit in the bushes between power station and gas station. From there you can see when scavs respawn on both places

[crystal oracle]

Bruh I could make so much money rn

Just need to craft green batteries. ez profit

[severe girder]

i need to put a dovetail first tho right?

[crystal oracle]

yes I think you do

[barren sapphire]

the op-sks has that dovetail inbuild. The regular sks does not

[robust robin]

Stm isnt even good people only think its good because it looks like an ar 15 platform, when actually its basically the same as a saiga

[deft dew]

Still getting huge lags at "awaiting session start" and when loading out of raid (takes like 1-2 extra minutes), which piece of hardware causes this issue? SSD/RAM bottleneck?

[severe girder]

oh yeah ur right

[barren sapphire]

op-sks + pso scope is an absolute beginner beast. But I wouldnt mod it any further, the rest isnt worth it

[severe girder]

i've been iron sighting it like a champ so far

[barren sapphire]

now imagine what you could do with a proper scope

it just looks that way on the end screen. Once youre back in the menu your character hasnt gained anything actually

[pearl pier]

saiga 9?

does the stm sell for much at least

[robust robin]

Not at half durability

Its good with any ammo better then pst but thats hard to obtain

[pearl pier]

do i get better weapon durability with better fence rep?

[robust robin]

Better to just use a mp5 or ump because stm isnt even full auto

I dont think so not in my experience

[pearl pier]

so at the end, its ammo which matters more?

[barren sapphire]

always has been, pew pew

an absolute garbage weapon with good ammo is still top tier

[robust robin]

Yes and also the firerate, as stm is single fire so you have to click super fast

[upbeat elk]

Basically gun = handling
Ammo = dmg

[spring basalt]

STM can be used as a very budget dmr if u dont like the SKS

[cursive whale]

Is the .366 eko or smth ammo good?

[barren sapphire]

not really no

[robust robin]

I would only use ap as it is really good

It is 1k a round though, but can one tap to chest with lvl4 or below armour

[crystal oracle]

BRO POWERBANKS ARE 100K NOW COS OF THE GREEN BATTERY CRAFT WTF

[spring basalt]

or fmj/geksa if ur gonna go for legs

[tough oyster]

does reloading assault rifles level that skill?

[cursive whale]

Should i use .366 eko with vpo209 or the 7.62 or whatever the caliber is

[deft dew]

Does muzzle velocity = how severe the bullet drop is?

[olive bough]

Nice that’s gonna make me tons of profit

[robust robin]

Whats the green bat craft?

[barren sapphire]

the 366 AP ammo from flea market is great. It two shots chests

when opponent has 4 class armor

[robust robin]

*1 shots

[olive bough]

#beginners-chat message

Craft

[spring basalt]

rec bats have gone up aswell less go

[barren sapphire]

no they didnt

[cursive whale]

Well i dont wanna spend 79k for ammo

[crystal oracle]

3 power banks, 2 r batteries, 1 adapter and 1 red pliers

Workbench lvl 2

[robust robin]

And you need 5 of them wtf

[crystal oracle]

3 powerbanks

[olive bough]

Just loot filing cabinets

[crystal oracle]

thats 300k

[upbeat elk]

Sad thing is i just bought 5 green bats this morning before the craft...

[olive bough]

Boom easy profit

[spring basalt]

never would i hvae thought round pliers n USB adapters would go for so much

[barren sapphire]

run the VPO-Sniper from jaeger, with a silencer. That way you only need a few bullets. The sniper comes back in insurance always. Its an insanely cheap built that two shots everyone right now

[crystal oracle]

Why did they add this craft xD

Now the green bat is gonna decrease so much

[tough oyster]

wait theres a green bat craft?

[olive bough]

Because green batteries were so rare

[crystal oracle]

Ik

[upbeat elk]

It shouldve never been 1m+ each

[tough oyster]

i just sold like 2 powerbanks...

[cursive whale]

Which jaeger lvl?

[crystal oracle]

Could someone send a screenshot on how to do the craft rq?

[olive bough]

Again, if you wanna make profit just get a route with a lot of filing cabinets

[barren sapphire]

https://youtu.be/Yg0x5cKj4YU

[olive bough]

You find lots of powerbanks in there

[river yarrow]

Best early shotgun early on? Just unlocked Jaeger. (No flea market though).
What ammo to use? What attachments to get?

[crystal oracle]

I wanna buy the stuff before it goes way too expensive

[cursive whale]

Ill try mine and then this

[crystal oracle]

I just need the powerbanks and the pliers

I have 2 r batteries rn

[olive bough]

It’s already expansive unfortunately

[spring basalt]

I have so many usbs n rec bats lol

[crystal oracle]

same

I have 5 adapters

and 2 r batteries

Along with 3 r pliers

Can someone send a ss of the craft for me?

[robust robin]

Time to grind reserve knight buildings till death

[crystal oracle]

ty

In 2 hours im coming back to craft it

cos im crafing nixxors rn

[barren sapphire]

5hours to get one battery that sells for a million

[brittle canyon]

lmao that greenbat made out of pure energy or some shit

[crude grail]

RB-VO worth?

[cursive whale]

Whats the best map for money?

[upbeat elk]

its ok

[brittle canyon]

2 rbat 3 powerbank compress it into an AA

[olive bough]

Shoreline and reserve

[brittle canyon]

makes sense

[crude grail]

i just found one is it like "extract now" value?

on scav run

[fast wadi]

It should also require uranium tbh

[barren sapphire]

Depends. Interchange has an easy and safe stash run. Reserve is more risky, but has higher reward. Shorelines is a snooze fest but also relatively safe

[inland marlin]

no

[river yarrow]

Best early shotgun early on? Just unlocked Jaeger. (No flea market though).
What ammo to use? What attachments to get? Should I just roll with with 133 and the cheapest buckshot?

[crude grail]

copy that ty

[barren sapphire]

just take any shotgun, with any buckshot, and oneshot people in the face

[cursive whale]

Last time in shoreline i got fucked by to absloute chads

[river yarrow]

Instructions unclear - thanks!

[dull tapir]

Woods is ez money

[olive bough]

Interchange got some nice loot routes

For example there is a route in OLI where there are about 30 PC blocks

[barren sapphire]

shorelines has some fucked up spawns. If you spawn at the right side (road to customs) youre surrounded by spawns. Only the beginning is difficult, then it gets safer

[cursive whale]

How much are the oli office keys?

[olive bough]

PC components and chance to get a GPU are very nice

[olive bough]

No clue, check tarkov market, but they’re not needed for the route I use

[robust robin]

I think like 400k just for a quest

[cursive whale]

Route guide?

[olive bough]

Logistics department is 230k

[cunning lion]

Was just scavving the oli computers

[olive bough]

Gimme a sec

[cursive whale]

And is emercom medical key good?

[cunning lion]

My eyeballs did not see the PMC standing right in front of me in the open computer section

[cloud pilot]

Hello, is "ammo dumping" still a thing to gain recoil skill?

[ancient shuttle]

thanks again for the tip. I got what I needed and more for my hideout

[robust robin]

You can reload a sniper to get sniper skill?

[barren sapphire]

yes

[robust robin]

Yeah i think shooting at all levels recoil skill

[cloud pilot]

Ok thanks

[barren sapphire]

you can take an m700 with an EMPTY magazine into a raid, and some ammo. Then just press "reload" to topload the mag. Then just unload the mag in your inventory and repeat

[dull tapir]

Or mosin

[robust robin]

Mosin only has internal mag though

[cloud pilot]

Will just "r" work with two mags?

[dull tapir]

You can infinitely reload the mosin

[barren sapphire]

no you have to topload the mags. Just replacing mags over and over doesnt do anything

[cloud pilot]

Ok thanks

[robust robin]

Does that mean that toploading an sks will level assault rifle/carbine skill?

[violet furnace]

what does "Subsonic" special effect means?

[barren sapphire]

it meas the bullet doesnt make that loud crack noise

[violet furnace]

ohh, ok

[hollow obsidian]

is it worth holding onto the labs access key card when im only lvl 2?

[tepid garnet]

Imo yea

[dull tapir]

Yes you will need 2 later for a quest

[tepid garnet]

Yes and keep at least one so you can learn labs offline

[halcyon fulcrum]

daily quests

[halcyon fulcrum]

subsonic is below the speed of sound so they wont break the sound barrier, pew pew pew

[severe river]

Hey so a guy had told me that they would revert the minus rep you get from having killed Santa. I guess he was wrong? I'm -6

[olive bough]

He was lying

[quasi venture]

THAT UMCS CAMP AND CONVOY quest is so damn hard on woods

[torn goblet]

Is it normal to get killed by USEC rogue (John) as a SCAV ?

[inland storm]

why shouldn't it be normal?

[torn goblet]

The patrol on floor never attacks me

[inland storm]

them not attacking you is not normal

they attack anyone on sight

[fast wadi]

rogues are different faction from scav

[misty ginkgo]

They don't attack me on sight. Unless im on my pmc (bear).

[torn goblet]

That's not what I saw on youtube videos about scav runs on Lighthouse

[inland storm]

i forgot to mention if you're usec then they don't shoot on sight but tell you to piss off. but if youre' a pscav or bear they attack on sight

[torn goblet]

Like the patrolling guys never attacked me, ever. I did maybe 20+ scav runs on Lighthouse. Only the machine gun guys yell "SCAV ahead" and pew pew

[misty ginkgo]

No they don't?

I usually run into their warehouses and loot. They never shoot me.

[torn goblet]

Yeah same, but maybe because PMC killed the turret guys

I don't know

[olive bough]

rouges attack bears on sight. They attack usecs and scavs only if they get too close

[misty ginkgo]

I stood and kissed one of the middle ones.

He didn't warn me or anything

[olive bough]

Maybe he was having a good day

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Rouges are weird man

[misty ginkgo]

Maybe yeah. They changed the AI recently. Idk if that changed the behaviour against scavs

[robust robin]

Maybe fence rep messes with the ai

[misty ginkgo]

I have -2...

[robust robin]

What is your timer

[misty ginkgo]

40 something i think

[robust robin]

Jesus

[misty ginkgo]

🤷 Only time i use my scav is if im having a bad day and literally can't get anything done

Or if im bored and wanna get some shitty kit and pvp with it

[robust robin]

I have like a 14min timer with 1.5 rep and intel lvl1

[unreal ruin]

I'm about to potentially lose so much gear because the errors are tarkoving my stash ;-;

[misty ginkgo]

You don't lose stuff cause of errors.

Only thing you could lose is the gear you brought out of a recent raid. If the servers went down that would happen.

[unreal ruin]

If I restart the game whilst it's stuck on the after raid transfer screen, do I keep the stuff i already moved into my stash?

[misty ginkgo]

Just wait

I had the same problem, servers are slow rn ig

[unreal ruin]

I see, thanks

[robust robin]

Yesterday i got out of raid and couldnt even move items out my inv

I got an intel and sick airdrop loot but idk if it saved

[unreal ruin]

I'm just waiting for the items to stop blinking

[robust robin]

Yeah they were doing that and i gave up and just quit, i was on pmc so it mightve saved but if it didnt i would be annoyed

I just hope i dont lose my pimped out rfb

[unreal ruin]

I found an MPX and MP7 in a barrel cache and I just want to get them out

[robust robin]

Tbh they wont be good without good ammo

[swift acorn]

not letting me hand it over

[misty ginkgo]

Restart?

[robust robin]

I guess you could get away with pst but with the mp7 you just need pk3

Dont you hand it over to therapist?

[unreal ruin]

What level is considered beginner?

[robust robin]

I would say less then 20

Thats when you are stuck in customs

[upbeat elk]

Did u die?

[olive bough]

I’m not considered a beginner anymore I can’t ask for help

[robust robin]

Depends on the amount of wipes youve played tbh

[olive bough]

First wipe, 150 hours total

[upbeat elk]

Id say youre still a beginner

[robust robin]

Yeah i would say you are stilla beginner but thats just the average

[unreal ruin]

This is my 3rd wipe but I died every raid I went out

for the past wipes

I still don't know what I'm doing

[robust robin]

Yeah im on my 4th i think but most my others ones i have inly reached like lvl 20

[unreal ruin]

I think the highest I reached was level 4 or 5

[robust robin]

Man when you start doing shoreline quests you die so much haha

[unreal ruin]

There's shoreline quests?

[upbeat elk]

How do u quit so fast. The game only becomes fun after 20 😄

[robust robin]

I was a beginner, like i said the shoreline quests put me off past wipes bu this wipe im nearly on punsiher 3 and spa tour 2

[upbeat elk]

Shoreline quests are very frustrating, i feel ya

[robust robin]

I do agree it gets alot better when you get nice scopes and suppressors

[upbeat elk]

im so happy im mostly done with them

[winged dragon]

im giving away a docs case that i dont need, if this is not allowed please tell me so i just sell it

[robust robin]

Theyre like 300k on flea lol

[misty ginkgo]

Game gets fun when you can pvp without having to think about money. 😄

[olive bough]

I hate signal by mechanic

Took me 5 raids to complete part 1 w/ map

[winged dragon]

is that alot or little?

[robust robin]

Scav/pmc kills are 100x worse

[olive bough]

Part 2 was easy, i’m finishing up part 3

[robust robin]

Its good i would just keep it for other maps

[misty ginkgo]

I would keep it tbh, it's just easier to have one for each map 😄

[robust robin]

So you can just keep a shoreline docs and a customs docs

[winged dragon]

i have sicc and a couple keytools + 4 docs cases

i have 2 that i dont need

[upbeat elk]

Signal isnt that bad, as you have to run to locations where people arent going to really.

[robust robin]

Yeah you could prkbably just give it to a friend if you really wanted

[winged dragon]

money isnt a problem for me and i thought id make a couple guys' day

[olive bough]

I have a reserve and customs docs

[robust robin]

Docs cases are a game changer early game

[winged dragon]

solo life

[olive bough]

Indeed

[winged dragon]

nah my friends have multiple too

[winged dragon]

exactly thats why im giving it away

i know the struggle

[misty ginkgo]

Fair enough. Please just find a guy under lvl 15, other people can just buy it.

[robust robin]

Yeah i would go into lfg and look for some beginner and suprise him with it mid raid

[winged dragon]

went on multiple factory runs trying to voip people

they jst shoot on sight

[olive bough]

People are not very gamer on factory

[upbeat elk]

Most of the people on Factory are for PMC kill quests, so yeah

[olive bough]

They usually go there for blood and nothing else

[misty ginkgo]

🤷 I would go customs and find a timmy tbh

[winged dragon]

fair enough ill try that lmao

[unreal ruin]

What is a docs case

[olive bough]

A neat little thing where you can fit all sorts of stuff

[misty ginkgo]

A 2x1 "case" that can hold keys and some valuable items.

[olive bough]

Like keys, money, valuables such as bitcoins, ssd, flash drives etc

[misty ginkgo]

It can contain 16 slots

[unreal ruin]

Oh what

[robust robin]

Its 2x1 and stores 4x4 of keys and info items and cash

[olive bough]

How much does SICC cost

[winged dragon]

~700k from jaeger

[unreal ruin]

it only costs 300k on flea?

[robust robin]

I think theres a jager barter

[winged dragon]

lvl 3 or 4 i dont remember

[olive bough]

Damn you, jager!

[unreal ruin]

Can't wait for flea then

[winged dragon]

you want one axillith?

[robust robin]

Sicc case is better for pvp because it can hold dogtages with more slots at the cost of no intel storage

[unreal ruin]

How much should I bring?

[olive bough]

Oh sicc doesn’t hold intel?

[winged dragon]

xD

nothing bro

[unreal ruin]

since I can't access flea yet

[olive bough]

Then no sicc

[winged dragon]

ill give you one

[unreal ruin]

Oh, thank you

[winged dragon]

is sicc lvl 3 or 4 jaeger?

im sure its 4 innit?

[misty ginkgo]

Sicc is ll4 jaeger yup

[winged dragon]

do you think ill get flagged or banned if i give it away?

i dont want problems lol

[robust robin]

Nah you wont

[upbeat elk]

No

[winged dragon]

awesome

[upbeat elk]

Too small amounts to get flagged

[winged dragon]

@unreal ruin just send me a pm with your ingame name ill give you one

[unreal ruin]

You can get in trouble for giving stuff? Like large amounts?

[upbeat elk]

Yeah, its to avoid RMT

to fight it rather

[winged dragon]

interesting, i dont know the ins and outs of the flag would you mind telling me more? cuz im always on the edge when it comes to giving stuff to my friends

[olive bough]

Only things I ever gave to my friend is like meds on the spot and some stuff for gunsmith

[upbeat elk]

Not sure how it works, but u shouldnt get flagged if u give some stuff to your friends that u play with regularly.

[winged dragon]

gave my friend an ultra key but i was super sketched

[upbeat elk]

I believe its in BSGs best interest to not explain how the system works so its more difficult to get around it

[unreal ruin]

If I'm stuck in a crit error loop, is it better to just restart the game?

[winged dragon]

i restarted my game just now

[bold kernel]

just lost all my best gear lets go

[cold blade]

do some scav runs you’ll get it back in an hour

[bold kernel]

i accidently killed santa

im not liked by the scavs

[upbeat elk]

Santa doesnt spawn anymore. Right?

[cold blade]

yep

[cold blade]

Is your scav rep in the -?

[bold kernel]

ill check

definitely is tho

i think it takes like 22min to load a scav

[karmic turret]

yo

so im trying to install the game

[cold blade]

oh yeah it is a bit low then

[karmic turret]

and i all i get is

Not enough space on disc C:\

ERROR: 101001

but

i am chosing D:\ as my install location

well

technically im using D:\Battlestate Games

i copied the Battlestate Games folder from C:\ and put it in D:\

[robust robin]

Make a new installation path?

You could try reinstall the launcher

[karmic turret]

do i really have to reinstall it?

im trying to install it in D:\ but it says theres not enough space on C:\

[cold blade]

Is your temp file clear?

[karmic turret]

uh

when i googled

[robust robin]

The launcher isnt too big

[karmic turret]

they said to change the temp file to a place with more disk space

since i have like 1 gb in C

so i made a new temp fil

e

in D

and i mean

thats empty

it looks like this:

[cold blade]

but have you set that as your temp file

[karmic turret]

yeah

in system enviroment

thats user variables

system variables

@cold blade any idea whats going on?

[cold blade]

no clue i’m trying to find a solution atm

[robust robin]

I would just uninstall then reinstall launcher if its the last resort tbh

[karmic turret]

should i just do that then?

[cold blade]

if you submit a support thing on the forums they will send you a link to a zip of the entire game and then you can just change the directory in the launcher I believe

[karmic turret]

well thats gonna take a while

ill reinstall the launcher to begin with

[crystal oracle]

How much are green batteries and powerbanks now?

[cold blade]

lithium batteries cost around 1mil I think

and power banks are 13k

[robust robin]

They went up in price because craft

[unreal ruin]

Should I wait until flea to sell things like that, or just sell to traders?

[wet solar]

is there any cheap rig with a 2x2 slot?

[robust robin]

Geksa

[tender relic]

What is this “kappa” people talk about? I thought it was a twitch emoji

[wet solar]

its a container

[tender relic]

Oh I like containers

[whole thistle]

Biggest secure container

[robust robin]

Umka

[wet solar]

ty

[robust robin]

I mis remembered

[whole thistle]

You have to get level 62, do almost every quest, and get every streamer item to get it @tender relic

It's 3x4

[robust robin]

Stupid level requirement

[whole thistle]

It's not meant to be accessible

[cold blade]

wait till you get flea

or keep them

[robust robin]

It was actually feasable for a normal person until the lvl requirement, even aqua got it lol

[cold blade]

How long are the wipes? i’m sure if you just put a few hours a day you could get it in a month or two

[robust robin]

You could unlock collecter but its hard to get the lvl requirement

[whole thistle]

6 or 8 months

[deft dust]

aqua used to be a factory chad back then

[robust robin]

He used to be tan man now hes just piss man

[whole thistle]

Yeah he wasn't the tarkov once a week for 1 hour gamer that he is now

[cold blade]

He does upload daily so I think he plays quite a bit

[robust robin]

He is still fun to watch and i appreciate the content though

[deft dust]

indeed

[whole thistle]

His videos recently are just a single raid barely edited

They're kinda boring

[cold blade]

you don’t watch aqua for the raid you watch aqua for aqua

wrong chat

[robust robin]

Zoodoo ranger enjoyer

Monster fan

[cold blade]

big mac enjoyer

[robust robin]

Idk any other alchoholic cans so i just said monster

[cold blade]

oh I thought you were naming aqua ign tags

[robust robin]

I was doing the meme

[vagrant cargo]

Why can’t I play on lighthouse

It used to work and now the game kills itself when I launch it

[crystal oracle]

They are like 130k now

[shadow pecan]

Round pliers, rechargeable batteries, usb-a's, and power banks are all much more valuable than before because they just added a craft that uses them to make green bats, which are like 1.2 mil on market

[crystal oracle]

Yeah

Are the powerbanks still 130k? or are they gone up again

[shadow pecan]

I'm not at my computer

Plus this which is wonderful

[exotic jungle]

should be on by default

[wet solar]

it is, but when the servers start getting shitty, bugs like this occur

[exotic jungle]

oh lord

powerbanks are sitting at 110k ru lmao

[wet solar]

pogchamp u can get green bats now

powerbanks will quickly tank tho so watchout

sell now while its expensive

[exotic jungle]

tbh I didn't care about them batt

[wet solar]

you need 5 for rest lvl 3

[languid temple]

green bats will also be tanking right?

[primal breach]

Friend died to a PISTOLING while having this

got head, eyes'd

[exotic jungle]

and what's the point in having rest lvl 3?

[glacial crown]

Guys

[exotic jungle]

unless I've forgotten something

[glacial crown]

When I get off work should I farm rogues on that one map

[exotic jungle]

next to none

[wet solar]

necessary for other things like library

[glacial crown]

lighthouse or whatever it is

[exotic jungle]

isn't the library the only thing that requires it?

which in turn isn't required at all?

[robust robin]

Its really good to help level strength

[whole thistle]

That xp tho

[exotic jungle]

yeah

[deft dew]

As a new player, should my loadout cost priority (as in "spend the most on") be ammo>armor>helmet>gun>meds?
Is there any lvl 4 armor I can buy from LL1 traders?

[exotic jungle]

but it's not really crucial

[whole thistle]

Yes and no there is no lvl 4 armor pre flea

[hot tide]

Ivan Frolov the standard setting is
L + alt if I want to change it to L + ctrl it won’t let me use two keybinds

[exotic jungle]

more or less, but balance things out around your priorities and what you feel comfortable with

I might be crazy but I don't buy helmets

I don't get head, nape'd that often

[barren oasis]

same but when i do tht mf comes in clutch

[hushed steppe]

do people burn ammo to increase recoil skills?

[exotic jungle]

when I do use one, I get head, jaw'd as always

that's half of the head hitbox

[whole thistle]

Yeah lmao I bought one every raid and only got like 30 ricochets lasts wipe
Still worth it

[whole thistle]

No

[exotic jungle]

plus it's the lower half, the most easily accessible when you aim center of mass

[hushed steppe]

what do you use GP coins for?

[river yarrow]

Level 1 Traders, 133 Shotgun, what ammo to use? Buckshot or Grizzly Slug?

[deft dew]

well my priority is usually to avoid PMCs altogether if I can help it until I have access to decent ammo/armors

[exotic jungle]

don't forget that most of them run T4 armor

and some ammo is able to crush those armors

not necessarily a question of rubles though

run something you're comfortable with

[pallid gulch]

was wondering why USB got expensive O_o didn't notice this one

[whole thistle]

Some shitty barters

They added them originally as a joke lol

[robust robin]

They were the currency in contract wars right

[whole thistle]

The premium currency yeah

[burnt vortex]

Does mastery over a weapon significantly improve reload times

[jade walrus]

Should I just ditch my scav rep?

its 0.7 because at start of wipe i was new and killing all i see

maybe i will just ignore the rep idk

[robust robin]

You get special reloads and the unload animation keeps a bullet out of the chamber instead of dropping it

[jade walrus]

what do you guys think?

[icy turtle]

is asia server in eft good?

[burnt vortex]

Depends, I really enjoy my scav rep. Higher scav rep means better equipment

[icy turtle]

im planning to play eft in a few days

[jade walrus]

I know it does

[burnt vortex]

Ah so it’s not faster tho?

[robust robin]

Yes always keep it high

[jade walrus]

thats why im sad having low one laready

im already at -0.7

[burnt vortex]

You start off with 0

Oh

[jade walrus]

yes

i was new to game and just played

[burnt vortex]

You put .7 at first

Lmao

[jade walrus]

i know what scav rep is now

but its too late

[burnt vortex]

I was gonna say like dang that’s good

[jade walrus]

so maybe i will just ignore it this wipe idk?

[burnt vortex]

And nah that’s easy to fix

Do a few car extracts and you won’t even notice it

[jade walrus]

Hmm

I will try

[burnt vortex]

It’s a massive help

First car extract on a map is .25

So you’ll go from -.7 to .-45 in one go

[jade walrus]

I know

i may restard the wipe

[burnt vortex]

Do 3 of those and you get so much rep

[jade walrus]

i havea few mil rubles worth of loot im only level 10 tho

[robust robin]

Lvl 2 gives new animations and lvl 3 lets you reliad whilst scoped, wiki doesnt say it increase relosd speed but mag drills does

[burnt vortex]

In literally 3 matches you can nearly get back 0 neautral rep

[exotic jungle]

here's what I've just looted in ultra med:

[burnt vortex]

Ultra med?

[jade walrus]

on a new account those 3 matches would have me at 1 rep

[halcyon fulcrum]

nice

[robust robin]

1.5 mil key lol

[burnt vortex]

What’s ultra med?

[exotic jungle]

a pharmacy in front of techlight

[robust robin]

Interchange next to the tech store

[exotic jungle]

the key is worth 1.5M lol

[burnt vortex]

I mean do you. But if you think 3 matches is too much just screw your scav rep then

[exotic jungle]

my worst decision this wipe was to keep it

[burnt vortex]

Lol

[robust robin]

Need power on and has med spawns, get 2 or more ledxs and it pays itself off

I got one off scav and havnt sold it yet

[exotic jungle]

well try and get them ledx

[dire hull]

how do i become a chad?

[exotic jungle]

it's mostly meds

and crappy ones

[robust robin]

Become geared and always w key

[idle locust]

use the best ammo

[burnt vortex]

Chads are marked by heavy gear and the search for combat

[exotic jungle]

try run this key 10 times and see how many afak you get lol

[robust robin]

Put a paperweight over the w key

[dire hull]

so put on my lvl 6 armours and get a good gun go in like hell?

[burnt vortex]

I mean that’s one way

My friends consider me a chad

But I rock Lvl4 armors consistently and use the Saiga-12 and Vityaz

[dire hull]

saiga is crazy good i used it once. only for close corners lol

[burnt vortex]

I think it’s more of a mentality thing

[exotic jungle]

I'm so disappointed

I'm ready to suicide myself

on interchange

[burnt vortex]

Saiga-12 with a 20rd mag

I hate interchange

[exotic jungle]

I'm just packing bullets

[burnt vortex]

And I’ve got a mission or two there atm

Which I am not looking forward to

[halcyon fulcrum]

dont you need it for a quest?

[exotic jungle]

the key? no

don't think so

it's a decent source of ophtalmoscopes, though you'll find them also at emercom, which key is worth 500k I think, and is absolutely needed for a lvl 15-20 quest

[dawn geyser]

It'll help with the ledx/defib/ophscope quest, but not mandatory (Assuming you're talking about ultra med)

[burnt vortex]

Is it worth getting the scav box using the 100 dog tags?

[halcyon fulcrum]

nononno

[robust robin]

If you dont need them for quests

[halcyon fulcrum]

rsas cost 16

[robust robin]

Is that over a certain level?

[halcyon fulcrum]

peacekeeper lvl 3 i think

i'd keep em

[robust robin]

The dogtags

Like over a certain player level

[halcyon fulcrum]

ahh ill check 1min

[dawn geyser]

L15+

[halcyon fulcrum]

place in que 123..

[dawn geyser]

GPNVG's x9 L25+

Is what I mainly save them for

Some people use the tags for Backpack trades

Not sure about the level for the backpack trades though ; I don't do them

[halcyon fulcrum]

^

[crystal oracle]

damn

green bats are around 800k now

sheesh

They are going down quick

[burnt vortex]

What backpacks do you even need for a trade

[dawn geyser]

Not backpacks to barter, Dogtags for backpacks

[halcyon fulcrum]

everyone workbenched it

[spark bough]

anyone has hillside house key\

[burnt vortex]

But what like backpacks can you get

[dawn geyser]

Raid

Oh same as the GPNVG's

[burnt vortex]

I easily have over 20 berkut level backpacks

[dawn geyser]

x9 L25+

Raid.

Raid backpacks, the couches

6SH118

[burnt vortex]

Oh that’s a thicc backpack

How much space does it have

[halcyon fulcrum]

alot

[burnt vortex]

YEEESH

That’s a lot of room

[dawn geyser]

[burnt vortex]

Oh you have a KS-23

Where do you get that?

[dawn geyser]

Don't tell him

[halcyon fulcrum]

saves 6 boxes for storage

[burnt vortex]

I’ve been trying to find one for my samurai shenanigans

[dawn geyser]

The world doesn't need more KS-23's

[burnt vortex]

Lmao

This is a fair argument

[robust robin]

That one quest reward

[tiny current]

Does any1 wanna help me level I’m lvl 8 I bought the game 4 days ago

[robust robin]

I got one too

[burnt vortex]

I’m not too far into my quest

[tiny current]

A

[burnt vortex]

You’re level 8 and you bought the game 4 days ago…

[halcyon fulcrum]

ks makes me feel safe

[burnt vortex]

Man I suck

I just want to run Flashbang rounds

And go chase people down with my machete

[dawn geyser]

Well different people have more time to play the game lol

[burnt vortex]

I mean I play a decent people

Probably 4-5 hour long sessions

But I also don’t focus on quest too much

[dawn geyser]

There's your problem

[robust robin]

You level 18?

[burnt vortex]

Just PVE/P

I’m level 18 over the course of 3 weeks

[dawn geyser]

If you hard focus quests you fly through the levels

[burnt vortex]

I have the base edition of the game

And my stash is so small it hurts

[robust robin]

Yeah quests help alot, i would invest into hideot to help the collecting ones so that you can unlock pk questline and punisher

[reef ledge]

the last 11 seconds on flea have been good lmao....thanks to my unnecessary hoarding of rechargebatts

[burnt vortex]

I have got my hideout pretty decent

And I’m trying to upgrade it more, but yeesh. It’s hard to keep up with my friends who all have EOD

[robust robin]

What quests you stuck on then?

I feel you too

[burnt vortex]

Not really stuck

Just don’t focus on them too much

[robust robin]

I got lvl 2 stash and im already full to the brim

[burnt vortex]

I generally run with my friends as their Rat Guard

[jade walrus]

What are the loud sirens on reserve ?

[burnt vortex]

Since I almost always run a 3 gun setup with tier 4 body armor sand tier4/5 helmets

[jade walrus]

its an alarm or something

[dawn geyser]

Alarm for Bunker hermetic door

Lets you exfil while it's up

[jade walrus]

oh ok

[burnt vortex]

I usually provide them complete coverage for their ratty asses

[dawn geyser]

Also triggers Raiders near train station (% chance of spawning)

To you Non-EOD players

Props

[burnt vortex]

There was one match where I took in an Ak-74 and 9 magazines.(45mag and 8 30rd mags)

[halcyon fulcrum]

what 3 weapons? @burnt vortex

[burnt vortex]

Literally saw someone and blew through all my magazines providing cover against a 3 man team

[robust robin]

2 dbs and a glock lol

[burnt vortex]

My friends ran off until I died

I run Saiga-12, Vityaz, and TT-33

[deft dew]

Could I maybe finally get an answer as to why I'm getting minute-long lags upon loading into the raid and sometimes during raid that 50/50 give me "server connection lost" when there's no queue?

[cursive whale]

should i sell my cpus or barter them for graches?

[burnt vortex]

Usually a 20rd mag and 4 back up magazines for the Saiga-12, Vityaz usually has 3 or 4 magazines, and TT-33 might have 2 but usually 1 magazine. Plus I carry one frag, flash/smoke grenade

Plus all my extra meds

[dawn geyser]

Technical questions are better asked in #community-support - Is it map specific? Have you tried to run factory?

[robust robin]

Save them for quest

[exotic jungle]

quick summary of my run for ultra med on interchange:

• got the perfect spawn at power station, went to ultra med/techlight quickly
• found light bulbs in techlight, and a CMS with a few splints in ultra med
• didn't see a fucking scav, he surprised me and blacked out my arm
• by the time I was down to the 1st floor, emercom had already been looted
• went to do what I should have done from the beginning: fill up my bag with food and gtfo there
• goshan shelves were already empty

[burnt vortex]

Depending on my rig that changes obviously

[halcyon fulcrum]

dbs?

[dawn geyser]

Dragonballs

[cursive whale]

what quest?

[robust robin]

Signal and farming

[deft dew]

tried several times, no answer, map doesn't matter

[burnt vortex]

Bulb is used for a hideout upgrade

Lvl2 gen

I need one

[halcyon fulcrum]

keep the sd for intel barter

[exotic jungle]

idk if the splints I found would repay me for the M80 ammo I used

[dawn geyser]

Ram more than 16? How's usage while you're playing

[deft dew]

8 (waiting for 16 to arrive), didn't use to happen though, it's been only during the past few days

can't alt-tab during the game as I would have to wait another couple minutes to get back in

[dawn geyser]

16 is pretty much the minimum - I know the minimum requirements online says it's 8

[halcyon fulcrum]

@exotic jungle its an rpg.. you dont get the big sword off the boss everytime

[exotic jungle]

what are you trying to say?

ultra med key is just trash

I've seen nobody defend this key on this wipe

[halcyon fulcrum]

its rng

run it 10 times then comeback

[deft dew]

like I said, I had no issues during the first week after buying the game

[dawn geyser]

Ultra med is not trash lol

[exotic jungle]

already did

[halcyon fulcrum]

you need stims for a quest too

[robust robin]

Double barrel shotgun

[exotic jungle]

this wipe? you've tried it?

[burnt vortex]

Question, i saw therapist sold some sort of epipen pouch. Is it worth it to get that?

[exotic jungle]

and you @halcyon fulcrum did you try it this wipe?

[dawn geyser]

It's mega nerfed

But it's still not a trash key

[exotic jungle]

for its price tag man it is, you can get almost the same loot at emercom and it's quieter

[dawn geyser]

I have a friend that has ran it 4 times and gotten a ledx

[exotic jungle]

srsly?

[dawn geyser]

Yeah

This wipe 12.12

Might be luck

[exotic jungle]

idk, 1st time I hear someone saying something good about that room this wipe

[robust robin]

I have ultra med shpuld i sell or keep it

[dawn geyser]

Well then you also have people who load into 3rd day wipe and get a red in giving tree

[exotic jungle]

lmao

[dawn geyser]

Speak of the devil

[exotic jungle]

yeah

[exotic jungle]

imo sell it, it's overpriced

[robust robin]

Seeing as you were talking about it

[dawn geyser]

From what people are saying

[exotic jungle]

unless you're really trying hard for samples quest (and even then, getting the correct stims is a stretch)

[dawn geyser]

Don't expect a return until maybe like 10+ runs?

It's meganerfed since previous patches

I didn't buy it personally this wipe

[robust robin]

You see people gettimg like 3 ledxs at once though

[exotic jungle]

this wipe?

[finite terrace]

any tips on getting known with prices? i usually have no idea of the value of the stuff i'm picking (usually weapon parts), surprised to find out that sometimes some muzzle breaks and other small shit are like 30k+

[dawn geyser]

It's definitely possible

Ok you guys are trolling at this point.

[robust robin]

I have seen clips idk if its this wipe

[exotic jungle]

I'm not talking about two wipes ago, when this room was the shit

[dawn geyser]

If you have a second monitor, have tarkov-market.com open on your other monitor

[exotic jungle]

it seems to have been heavily nerfed, so check if your clips are from this wipe, or older

[dawn geyser]

First column is flea price, last column is trader price @finite terrace

[robust robin]

Then again sometimes rng is just crazy

Pings dont ping when you edit @dawn geyser

[dawn geyser]

Still highlights

[exotic jungle]

that's what I'm trying to evaluate without running the room > 100 times, by asking ppl around
