[heavy pumice]

can someone join up and explain the game to me plz i just stared

dm me plz

[unique plover]

Has to be 60

[warm mist]

ok thank you

[bold kernel]

What should I focus on doing when I am running a scav raid compared to pmc raid?

[cobalt hare]

loot

[heavy pumice]

if someone is decent and can explain the game a lil can you join me and explain the basics

[unkempt yoke]

How do you know if you killed someone cause sometime i kill people and not know until when i extracted from the raid

[cobalt hare]

i used this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX6psgHatqA channel to get me up to speed

[cobalt hare]

just like real life lol. if you need to know for sure gotta walk over and take a look at the body

[warm mist]

there isnt really a good way to know @unkempt yoke unless you see the body fall or hear them yell

[calm marsh]

Top brand isn't ticking for Big Sale... ideas?

[plush spruce]

bro i cannot find 1 last salewa

[calm marsh]

Where are you looking?

[cobalt hare]

scav -> woods, emercom base

[calm marsh]

yeah, that's a good one, or several med crates on reserve

[plush spruce]

ive been going scav on customs since i know the spawns there

zero luck on reserve

ill try woods

[plush spruce]

ill check there thank you

[sterile saffron]

Forgot the cursed thing and brought in a makarov and got swarmed killed 2 before going down

[bold kernel]

It’s my first day playing and I’m just now getting used to shoreline after a couple successful raids when should I move on to customs?

[thorny tartan]

can someone help me with a quest on customs? I am level 18 and can hold my own, jsut want someone to show me where the tankers are at :3 im in 2 man squad #14

[sterile saffron]

Umm should try and learn it as soon as possible

[heavy pumice]

tryna duo i just bought the game

[sterile saffron]

4 man squad

Fuck if

It

[ashen wave]

how do i revert the permanent kos status scavs have for me as a scav

and is it linked to karma?

[cobalt hare]

yes

[ashen wave]

because i have like -1.94

[cobalt hare]

if it's not too low d- oh well

[ashen wave]

what do i get it to before they stop

[spice pawn]

Rip

[cobalt hare]

what level are you? might be worth to just reset the account

[ashen wave]

8

[cobalt hare]

well. depending on how much time you invested into level 8 and how important the rep to you the reset might be a good option

i totally would do it, you can get the level 8 back in a very short time

[ashen wave]

and i dotn kep the stuff i guess

[cobalt hare]

yes

or rather "no you don't"

[ashen wave]

if i get it to my buddy could i still grab it?

like from him?

[cobalt hare]

sure.

[ashen wave]

ok yiikes

[cobalt hare]

just don't give him millions and don't trip the anti-rmt protection

[ashen wave]

what is the req to not trip it

[cobalt hare]

actually forget i said that, it's very unlikely you have the big ticket items like keycards that would do it

[plush spruce]

they really need to make it more clear that you arent really supposed to kill other scavs

[ashen wave]

ya

[plush spruce]

4th time today ive been killed by another scav i just need to start shooting first :c

[ashen wave]

i do

its fine tho

[dire rock]

i cant recommend that

[cobalt hare]

i can

[ashen wave]

where do you reset acc

[cobalt hare]

https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/support/knowledge/328

[plush spruce]

im tired of dying to them man

[dire rock]

well either you learn to be careful around them or every scav will want you dead and youll end up with an hour long timer

fence rep is a bitch if it gets low

[cobalt hare]

tarkov explainting game concepts to new players? oh please

[plush spruce]

fair enough

[cobalt hare]

it's even worse than eve online

[dire rock]

one of the valid criticisms ive seen, however theres plenty of third party ways to learn so i dont see it as something they should focus on at the moment

[cobalt hare]

they won't just like CCP did not until (they realize) it starts to hinder the growth of the playerbase too much.

[plush spruce]

its just such bs man why should i die because another player doesnt know about scav karma

[dire rock]

its their rep

[plush spruce]

its my loot :c

[dire rock]

eventually youll see them less and less because they cant scav

[plush spruce]

i suppose

[cobalt hare]

scav loot unless it's rreally really needed or very expensive doesn't exist until you leave the raid in my mind. i just assume it'll get lost and i'll die which makes me worry less.

[umbral latch]

a quest like sanitary standards... can i do that with my scav?

[cobalt hare]

yes

if i do get the expensive/needed stuff i just shoot first

[dire rock]

im sure theyll update the scav info soon, the new karma system literally just got added

[plush spruce]

i hope

well atleast the emercom base looks promising for salewas, the medbags were looted but there were plenty of med items loose in the area

[dire rock]

emmercom med on interchange?

[tough aurora]

whats the best scope to run on the sv-98? currently have an RN30mm mounted

[plush spruce]

the place recommended by issmkc on woods

[dire rock]

scopes are personal preference

[cobalt hare]

people sometimes refer to it by "scav camp"

[tough aurora]

im looking at this scope that is 3-24x42, how do i read that?

[dire rock]

what works for me may not for you, if you want some recommendations however the Burris tac30/elcan specter and valday 1x6

[cobalt hare]

it's actually an emercom base in the ingame map (and has a bunch of emercom gear in it) but i've not seen non-russian users refer to it as such

[dire rock]

just look at the bottom for its magnification

[cobalt hare]

also there's a second medical focused place on woods which is the northern part of the USEC camp - there's an operating table there with numerous medicine spawns

[merry dust]

LEAGUE PLAYER DETECTED !!

[dire rock]

uh oh

[dire rock]

i mean what do you mean i have no clue what your talking about :)

[abstract phoenix]

what armor should i get now that i got flea market? i need something other than a fiona lvl 2

[dire rock]

whatever you can afford, 6b23 and zhuk-3 are good level 3 armors

[abstract phoenix]

i'll go for those then, thanks man

[cobalt hare]

[merry dust]

Im a Level 13

who plays once every year

and only in coop vs ai

[iron prism]

are sniper scavs on woods shooting faster this patch?

[cobalt hare]

yes

[dire rock]

and you recognized my poro?

[merry dust]

it’s literally like the face of league

[dire rock]

well your the first

[merry dust]

it’s also on my viego when I emote

so I know that

[merry dust]

I am?

😤

[iron prism]

def a gigachad braum main here

[merry dust]

who that now

[dire rock]

i can respect it, usually my adc is a little to brain dead for me to play him though

[foggy valley]

hello

[cobalt hare]

this is when you pick xerath

[merry dust]

I only know brain dead lux ult

Thrash seems cool as well

[dire rock]

hi

[merry dust]

I like all the like forsaken characters

cause no mana is

so big

[iron prism]

is a korund at 34 durability too low?

doing shoreline pvp

[cobalt hare]

it's basically a 4.5 level armor

[iron prism]

yeah, i'll just use a new one. they're only 120k

[abstract phoenix]

what helmet should i also get since i got flea, i need it for loadout lmao

[real sleet]

does anyone know a video that explains how raids work and how to do them

[cobalt hare]

there are 3 types of helmets:

1. full face airframe faceshield fast mt protection from all sides that cost a fortune
2. big pots of class 5/6 thickness and not seeing/hearing things i.e. altyns and maskas
3. the dickhead helmet for 30 grand or however much it is

everything else is meh

[abstract phoenix]

you cant buy the alytn, where can you get it though?

[dire rock]

find in raid or high enough rag boi

[cobalt hare]

ragman ll4

[abstract phoenix]

man im on 1 still, i need level 20 for even 2

also do you mean ssh 68 helmet when you say dickhead helmet?

[cobalt hare]

then don't bother with any of that. either get the penis helmet it's bleach-traded modern brother

yes

there's a toilet recipe that you can use to make large amounts of bleach

[remote kettle]

level 17 for 2

[remote kettle]

ulach best non fs helmet

[cobalt hare]

and 2 bleaches can be traded for https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/6B47_Ratnik-BSh_helmet which is the mostly the same as ssh-68 except a bit better

[ashen wave]

wait ok so i just reset acc, went in as a scav and got smoked by another scav. does it say whether or not its a player scav?

[cobalt hare]

you can tell whether the scav that killed you was player-controlled if they have a report button next to their name on the death screen

[shell jetty]

Is getting peacekeeper LL2 a priority? Using AK's so it doesn't seem that useful, and I'd have to buy a ton of dollars to get it

[remote kettle]

if it has the report icon its a player

[abstract phoenix]

what gun should i use now? im gonna do a reserve underground food run near the trainstation

[remote kettle]

not really

[ashen wave]

but as long as i have a 0 fence rep no scav should kill me right

thats an ai at least

[cobalt hare]

has red rebel
uses crunch masters
my man!

[remote kettle]

u have an mdr, u can rock that

[remote kettle]

you shouldnt be kos with -2

[ashen wave]

i... was tho

[remote kettle]

unless its a boss or a raider you shouldnt be

[abstract phoenix]

sure, but is there anything good i can buy for now though? im saving that mdr as i stole it from friend so he couldnt get insurance claim lmao

true ratting

[ashen wave]

could it be a glitch then because every single time i would load in id end up getting killed by a scav even after i reset my acc

[surreal wedge]

What's the best thing to sell to peacekeeper? I remember it was better to sell him specific items to maximize dollars instead of directly buying dollars

[cobalt hare]

can't tell what level/traders are you but my go-to would be either one of the semiauto shotguns with magnum buck or the RFB

[abstract phoenix]

are the lmgs even good, they like 40k lmao

[frail anvil]

depends how you mod them would be my guess

[abstract phoenix]

hmm, i might try a adar, would that be good?

[cobalt hare]

as long as you don't pay full price for it

[abstract phoenix]

i got one for 15k

80 durability

[cobalt hare]

eh. here's a protip: take an adar off a scav, take all the components off, throw the lower receiver (the actual "gun" part) out, buy a new one from skier for 7k, reassemble - voila. 100% durability adar

[remote kettle]

855 is good enough

[remote kettle]

then you're getting shot by players

or bosses

[ashen wave]

theres no way there is that many players that dont know ab scav karma lmaoo

[remote kettle]

cause some of them dont care

[shell jetty]

I mean 80% of my factory scav-runs have a player-scav just going rambo on everyone

[remote kettle]

look at the death screen, if theres a danger icon (the report button) next to their name its a player

[shell jetty]

I don't think they care about karma 😄

[mint field]

Yo is there a fix to where you can see your quest progression in game because im doing shooter born in heaven and i cant see my quest progress to confirm my kills?

[frail anvil]

i think it only counts once raid is finished

[mint field]

even thoe i didnt get one in that raid

[stuck ibex]

Just started playing not to long ago, only lvl 10 if anyone would like to help me learn a bit more bout the game. US

[mint field]

sorry i did get one during the raid

[frail anvil]

my game just crashed great

[mint field]

but their was no notification that I got a shooter born in heaven kill

[deft dew]

How many parts of a gun need to be FIR for the whole gun to count as FIR? I noticed when modding for Gunsmith quests that when I put parts I bought on a FIR weapon at some point it loses that status

[plush spruce]

@cobalt hare man you are a fucking legend, just got my last salewa

[frail anvil]

there is no notification until you finish the subpart of that quest

[merry dust]

all

[deft dew]

good news is you don't meet those players often because their timer is so damn long

[merry dust]

but for gunsmith it doesn’t matter

[shell jetty]

This quest seems to be bugged: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/The_Extortionist
When I get to the container opened by the Unknown Key the documents aren't there.. The container also looks different from the inside when compared to some youtube-vids about the quest, has this been changed/broken?

[cobalt hare]

happy for you mate

[merry dust]

No

[deft dew]

oh so as soon as you mod a FIR gun you can't sell it on flea?

[mint field]

@frail anvil I did get a shooter born in heaven kill during the raid because after the raid i did get one towards my shooter born in heaven

[shell jetty]

Where them docs at then

[merry dust]

Ye

[merry dust]

Where tf u going for it?

[tribal garnet]

can someone give me a rough price range for red card? i wanna get rid of mine lol

[cobalt hare]

did that yesterday, it's quite literally just like in the picture

[shell jetty]

Are there multiple containers that the key opens?

[cobalt hare]

what do you mean by "containers"

[stuck ibex]

@shell jetty no its only unknown key

[abstract phoenix]

would you say this is good for reserve running with friend?

[cobalt hare]

there's a shack made out of sheet metal in the middle of this construction/whatever area

[mint field]

Is there a bug where you cant see quest progression during raid because alot of my quest goes to 0 during the raid

[cobalt hare]

the key opens the door, the quest item is on the floor

[shell jetty]

This Hut/Container, which is opened by the unknown key. Been there twice and no clothes on the floor

Some people have had similar bugs it seems

[merry dust]

The clothes are always there

I haven’t heard of any bug regarding that at all

[cobalt hare]

you need to wriggle around, it's hard to find the right angle from where it's interactible

i know what you're experiencing

[frail anvil]

i think its more of a once you kill 3 PMCs on said map then youll get notified that you finished a subtask of a quest

[shell jetty]

Yes but the issue is that there are no clothes on the floor

[cobalt hare]

send pics

[shell jetty]

Gahh I'll do it later

[cobalt hare]

play it in offline mode

[shell jetty]

I went there during the night though, probably shouldn't have an impact

[cobalt hare]

if only on the eyes

[stuck ibex]

first wipe in tarkov if anyone would like to help me learn maps a bit im already kinda know the way around. Looking for a possible few ppl to play with im only lvl 10 atm NA EST.

[boreal oak]

Hi, does anyone know how to change a tarkov email.

[frail anvil]

you should be able to do that on the website

[deft dew]

How come my scav comes with worse gear on 2 karma than on 0-1

[frail anvil]

might be just luck

[boreal oak]

Pretty sure that option is still greyed out

[frail anvil]

it shouldnt be

[boreal oak]

Il check when im on my pc, last time i checked the option was greyed out and for others on the internet too.

[shell jetty]

Ok now in offline mode the stuff is there! But can you see how different the container looks compared to the wiki?

[cobalt hare]

...it doesn't? all of these "docs folders" have an idetical model

[robust robin]

It doesnt matter too much

[shell jetty]

The container/hut, not the doc

[robust robin]

Some people had to figure out the quests before a wiki lol

[shell jetty]

Yea but my point is that they've changed it recently, and seems like it bugs sometimes that the clothes don't appear at all

[lone turtle]

any good tips on how to learn woods?

[shell jetty]

Some people said on forums that you have to relog after failing the quest, that might be it

[stuck ibex]

@shell jetty can you take a ss of what the outside looks like?

[shell jetty]

Outside it looks identical to the wiki pics

[stuck ibex]

ive just watched a lot of videos on it cause im on the same quest and that doesnt look like the inside

[shell jetty]

😄

Exactly what I'm saying

The insides have changed

Go check it yourself in offline mode if you wish

[robust robin]

Wow you have to loot a jacket in the middle of a room instead of in the corner

[shell jetty]

The entire layout is different, it no longer has those small walls and the textures are different

[cobalt hare]

if you think there is a bug it's best to capture footage and send to BSG support

[shell jetty]

Guess they introduced a bug while they changed something

Yeaaa I'll send it

[cobalt hare]

if you think the wiki can be improved there's an option to edit the page

[robust robin]

I think if the layout of a building is changed its not a bug, its intentional

Go to the wiki discord and submit photos if you really want

[shell jetty]

The bug is that the clothes aren't always there!

[robust robin]

Easier to find the doc?

[stuck ibex]

i wasnt aware it changed last time i was in it which was like a 2 weeks ago it still had the walls for me

[shell jetty]

Ok the bug is that the clothes&doc aren't always there!

[iron prism]

best way to finish punisher pt4 shoreline pmc kills?

[robust robin]

Resort.

[iron prism]

snipe around the map, rush resort ?

[cobalt hare]

camp the fishing gear spot

[iron prism]

pure evil

[cobalt hare]

make sure to count the seconds and do it right before the timer completes

[iron prism]

full auto seems difficult in resort, especially with only 1 mag slot with scav vest

[potent fog]

decent goodies!?!

[bleak gyro]

When is a good time to repair my guns? below 95% dura?

because i noticed as my gun durability drops the MOA increases

[waxen scarab]

I personally always keep my weapons above 93% as that's when malfunctions can happen.

Other than that it's entirely personal preference and what you'll be using the guns for. Extreme ranges a .05 extra moa could mess you up but firing down a hallway won't make a single difference.

[frail anvil]

anyone wanna run some woods?

[bold kernel]

yes i need help finding the jaeger camp for that quest

if you can navigate for me ill hop along

[frail anvil]

oh that

i can try

[echo spoke]

can anyone help me find one of these

[cobalt hare]

its completely random

good luck

[bold kernel]

can always buy one

on the flea when you unlock it

[echo spoke]

I need it found in raid tho

[cobalt hare]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/FireKlean_gun_lube also this

[echo spoke]

ty ❤️

[shadow bloom]

i was about to get off and am crafting sum that needs my generator on, will it stay crafting at its pace if i leave the gen on?

[echo spoke]

all day been trying to get my last one

[bold kernel]

yes but youll burn fuel

[sterile mist]

if you turn genny off, the pace is slow

[bold kernel]

oh nvm my bad

[sterile mist]

by slow i mean hours,

[bold kernel]

but yeah the fuel burns

[cobalt hare]

kekw forget this

[echo spoke]

??

why

[cobalt hare]

i mean unless you already have all of the above

[sterile mist]

because bb thats battlestate games for ya

[shadow bloom]

i mean if its off its gonna take 243 hours so should i leave it on?

[echo spoke]

I have everything just missing 1 fireklean

[cobalt hare]

finding 2 kleans in 24 hours sounds less than realistic

well

[echo spoke]

I've sold like 10 before

Never thought id need them 🤣

[shadow bloom]

i also have one fuel tank left

dont know what to do cause i have like none left

[cobalt hare]

jaeger sells fuel tanks at LL2

[shadow bloom]

and how many times i gotta suck him off to get ll2

[echo spoke]

anyone wanna come on a hunt for klean 😉

[cobalt hare]

just suck off BSG

and buy the fancy edition

[tribal garnet]

honestly if u dont have btc farm its up to you to leave it on or not if not then its up to you fuel is very useful and pays for itself with case crafts and you can also craft other profitable things in ur hideout while its running

[shadow bloom]

its a single gas analyzer that i havnt be able to find sense day 1 wipe

so is it worth

[cobalt hare]

that's basically a 200k + barter items needed to craft it

this crafting recipe is all kinds of evil

[tribal garnet]

oh lol just scav onto reserve a few times and look at dropdown and Queen tech spawns youll find atleast one there

[shadow bloom]

DONT YOU THINK I TRYD THAT

[tribal garnet]

its mad tempting to just run this kit on shoreline lmaooo

[cobalt hare]

here's a pro tip on getting GA

[tribal garnet]

like i mean idk you're just unluck then i guess

[cobalt hare]

go be a player scav on interchange and shoot other player scavs

[tribal garnet]

ive found like 60 gas ans this wipe lol

[cobalt hare]

thus multiplying your chances of finding them!

[tribal garnet]

or u can just ask ppl if they have one lmao most ppl have that task done already

[shadow bloom]

@cobalt hare is smart

well its already crafting so should i just keep it on

[inland storm]

is the stirrup quest worth completing?

[tribal garnet]

might as well lol

[cobalt hare]

no

[shadow bloom]

i also dont have the rubs to buy more fuel

[tribal garnet]

eh not really imo its like 6k xp and its a deadend task lol

[cobalt hare]

there's a quest right after it for 2 more FYI

[shadow bloom]

ik

i play a bit last wipe

i was only like lvl 10 lol

[cobalt hare]

i think i've randomly found mine in that power station on interchange, just lying on a shelf or something

[tribal garnet]

u got any idea what reds currently worth? ive checked flea hella but idk if they actually sell cuz ppl want like 20 GPUs black green and blue and like 4 dorm marked keys lolol

[shadow bloom]

imma sleep now yall have a good one

and thanks for the help

[cobalt hare]

not the right person for that question

you too

[tribal garnet]

dammit lol

[frail anvil]

i can try it depends on a spawn we get

[deft dew]

holy shit I actually killed a PMC in a straight engagement
he only had lvl 2 armor and was using .366 FMJ but I'll take it

[frail anvil]

.366 eko helped me once

[safe vessel]

quick question where is a good spot to find bolts and that sort

[inland marlin]

toolboxes, big brown technical crates. as well as loose loot spawns in certain places like oli in interchange

[thorny tartan]

can someone help me with a quest on customs? I am level 18 and can hold my own, jsut want someone to show me where the tankers are at :3

[ashen wave]

is the report button you use to identify if a player scav killed you the little triangle caution thing to the left of the name

[safe vessel]

ah alright thanks, do you think reserve or customs would be a good place?

[inland marlin]

reserve if you have keys

[safe vessel]

aight thanks

[inland marlin]

but thers also alot of toolboxes ig uess

[hallow island]

what are the new kappa items this wipe

[olive bough]

You can find the locations on the wiki

[hallow island]

i have all the old ones already

[thorny tartan]

I know but so much more fun to be shown them 🙂

[hallow island]

im guessing the pgw or whatever and bulbex?

[wet solar]

can you only do the jaeger barter for thicc wep case only once per account or something? even on restock the barter is out of stock..

[brittle canyon]

camp the flea not the trader window

[wet solar]

why?

[brittle canyon]

it’s faster

[marsh harbor]

T3 armor 55 dur vs T4 30 dur

what to use

both were repaired

[bold kernel]

55% durability?

[glacial moss]

what map?

30dur would only tank like one shot if its shotgun or high caliber

[bold kernel]

If it's 30 durability out of 80 then it won't tank anything

What matters is %, number is irrelevant

[misty ginkgo]

Is 11SR nerfed since it's so cheap this wipe?

[frail raven]

Ugh i feel like such a B. Im like so skurred to pmc raid. Even just with free skav sht

[waxen scarab]

grab a cheap double barrel with a pocket of shells and a backpack and go to customs or something

[frail raven]

I like customs. Thats the one ive been working on the most. Just had a legit skav run

[waxen scarab]

most early tasks are on it and has a good mix of close/med/long engagement routes

best starter map imo

[frail raven]

That S that pretty much makes you go to old gas is rough

[echo steppe]

is this normal?

i have a crap computer but just wondering

[waxen scarab]

far as i'm concerned as long as it isn't steady 100% you're good

[echo steppe]

im horrible with computers but i want more fps than less ye?

[waxen scarab]

yeah

[echo steppe]

thanks man

[tacit blaze]

where can i find the items to upgrade my stash to level 3? hand drill and pack of nails, that stuff

[bold kernel]

Tool crates

[fickle olive]

Anyone want to barter RB-ST? (If it's allowed?)

[robust robin]

Flea?

[fickle olive]

yea through flea

[robust robin]

Why you asking here

[fickle olive]

idk where 😦

[misty ginkgo]

Not many beginners have the items worth RB-ST.

[bold kernel]

Nor do experienced players lol

All rng

The damn keys

[misty ginkgo]

RB-ST is locking me behind so many quests rn

Just waiting for my friends to get the same quests, so they pay for the key

lolll

[swift acorn]

which one if better

[waxen scarab]

I prefer the ana personally

[echo steppe]

how good is hillside house key?

[fickle olive]

good loot behind this key?

[robust robin]

Mmac

[steep flame]

???

[echo steppe]

i think it's quest lock @fickle olive

[tribal garnet]

Ayeeee

[echo steppe]

like RB-ST

nice @tribal garnet jealous

[robust robin]

You just need to hand the key in for the quest

[steep flame]

it just opens cash registers

[tribal garnet]

i just bartered for one like yesterday lmaoooo

[echo steppe]

lolol

[steep flame]

i have a fir rivals band just sat in my stash

[tribal garnet]

lol i got a red card chillin in my stash i just dunno whats worth while to sell it for lol

[steep flame]

idk if i want red this wipe, seems meh

ive seen it sell for ~30 mil

[tribal garnet]

i feel ya there yea ive been told around 25-45m lmaooo

[hallow island]

defo not worth 30mil currently

[steep flame]

its not but people buy it

[tribal garnet]

ive had like 20 ppl tell me prices anywhere between 25-35m or 40-45m lol

[hallow island]

look at barters, always 90% cheaper

i got mine for like 20 gpu's

[waxen scarab]

T-plug

[tribal garnet]

thats still 20m lol

[hallow island]

thats...10mil..

[tribal garnet]

ikrrrr GGs

[hallow island]

even less because it was at beginning of wipe

[tribal garnet]

oh yea lmaoo my math was mathless

[tribal garnet]

yea i feel like thats pretty normal lol no ones gonna expect to get like 40m for a red card at beginning of wipe

[robust robin]

Rogue farming is the new raider farming

[tribal garnet]

either way red still the most worth item in the game lol

[swift acorn]

yo where do i find fucking mil corrugated tubes

[waxen scarab]

only spawn on lighthouse

[robust robin]

Got one off a player scav lol

For some reason he went to water treatment...

[fickle olive]

Guys, do you think it's worth to trade Beta case from Peackeeper?

[waxen scarab]

if you aren't EOD yeah

[fickle olive]

3x2 sounds nice 😄

[robust robin]

Punisher takes a while tbh, im contemplating doing the trade but punisher is free

[fickle olive]

What do you have to do for punisher?

[waxen scarab]

oh yeah i forgot you get a case for punisher

[waxen scarab]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/The_Punisher_-_Part_1

there's 6 parts

[robust robin]

Im on 3 atm but i know ill get hardstuck on 4

[fickle olive]

Ohh damn

[waxen scarab]

I grinded the fuck out of em and am on 6 now

[fickle olive]

I rather spend like 700k and get more space now 😄

I think I will get my money back pretty quickly with 2 extra spaces

[waxen scarab]

punisher's case is 4x2

[fickle olive]

It will take me forever to complete those tasks

[waxen scarab]

I wanna get kappa this wipe, never gotten it before because i've never gone truly hardcore into this game before

[robust robin]

I think everyone does its just so shitty they had to level lock it

[shrewd scroll]

do u do moonshin or 95k

[tribal garnet]

depends i like to switch it up cuz i normally profit from all of them Intel for keys and moonshine for gear and tank bats ect lol i only do 95k if im too lazy to buy moonshine or intel

[robust robin]

I would get scav case if i had eod :(

Fucking jager quests

[waxen scarab]

lol which one you stuck on?

[robust robin]

I have 11 jager quests that explains it all

[waxen scarab]

very nice, on the 2nd worst tarkov shooter where you kill pmc's at close range. got 2/3

[robust robin]

Oh yeah im still doing shooter 1

[waxen scarab]

that's the iron sight kill scavs right

[robust robin]

I bet that shooter is easy with vpo and ap against nakeds on factory

Yeah

[waxen scarab]

was so dissapointed, mosin'd a nakeds head off in factory and extracted.

26m headshot.

[robust robin]

Whats the level you need to get to to optimally get to sniper level 9?

[waxen scarab]

it was like 5 or something right

[robust robin]

I thought it was 3

Ive never made it that far

[waxen scarab]

yeah 6, you can get 3 lvl's from quests

[echo steppe]

how good is hillside house key? what can i barter for it?

[waxen scarab]

actually lvl 5, forgot about SBIH giving a skill

Everybody talks about just spamming reload to level sniper skill but i've found the best way to do it is to be an absolute sadist to scavs.
Blow both legs off then go for arms, if they're still alive get a headshot

[remote kettle]

basically everything

you got a FIR one?

[misty ginkgo]

Do you guys every run night time lighthouse? I hear that it's full of cheaters, so i don't wanna run thermal etc. tbh.

Been running a few low budget runs, never met a cheater

[neat flicker]

Sounds like a war crime

[waxen scarab]

Levelling my skills is worth any price

[neat flicker]

What does levelling snipers actually do

[misty ginkgo]

Faster reload afaik

[neat flicker]

Oh you need them for quests?

Interesting

[waxen scarab]

yep

[remote kettle]

elite boosts mastering rate but if you max sniper skill props to you

[waxen scarab]

so get to using bolt actions early when you want a chill raid

[neat flicker]

Imagine having a chill raid

[waxen scarab]

Most my raids are pretty chill lol

[neat flicker]

All my raids are in constant fear

[waxen scarab]

nah that'll get better with experience

That's how my first wipe was

[neat flicker]

Yeah it’s tough but im willing to power through

[waxen scarab]

when i spawn into woods a solid 9/10 times it's a nature walk with occasional popping scav heads

[verbal relic]

What am I missing? Should be all parts for Gunsmith Pt 1

[remote kettle]

60 dura

minimum

[neat flicker]

I’m thinking maybe I should try and get a few scav kills in my raids. I usually just freeze and wait for a sound to pass if I hear someone

[verbal relic]

TY!

[waxen scarab]

oh man, i used to be a deer in headlights too

[neat flicker]

I just don’t know what to do

Cause if I move or run then they’ll know exactly where I am

I think I might just try and run to surprise someone when I’m next in that situation. If it doesn’t work then I’ve learnt from it. If it does work then great

[waxen scarab]

It's all situational but the first thing you should usually do is find cover, either visual or hard and wait for what their response is

[inland marlin]

it doesnt matter if they know where you are if you know where they are

[waxen scarab]

if they keep coming then well, you're in cover with an advantage. If they stop then they probably heard you and might be taking cover as well, or might be attempting a flank. I'd reposition breaking sight lines to try and flank

[wide plume]

Can anyone tell me if console can play with steam players?

[misty ginkgo]

What?

[waxen scarab]

nani

[inland marlin]

lol, console?

[deft dew]

gotta be trolling

[wide plume]

Yes console

[waxen scarab]

man's lost

[inland marlin]

and steam lol

definitely trolling

[wide plume]

Came out in 2020 apparently

[deft dew]

gib link

[inland marlin]

nah your being trolled. its not on console, though you can use a controller to play apparently if you are ...unwise

and its not on steam

[waxen scarab]

wait you can use a controller? I'd consider it for scav runs lol

[deft dew]

why do I keep spawning with lab keycards on my scav

[wide plume]

I have it downloaded so obviously you are incorrect

[neat flicker]

I suppose that true

I’m just afraid I’ll start running and they’ll just spray me down no matter what

[inland marlin]

you have tarkov on steam huh

[deft dew]

I asked for a link

store page link, right now, mister

[waxen scarab]

well just standing still will get you gunned down too my guy, reposition to an advantageous point asap

[inland marlin]

you need to practice your gun skills. lack of confidence

[waxen scarab]

also always wear headphones, even if you're naked you should have headphones on

[wide plume]

I’m so fckn confused

[waxen scarab]

poor bait

[neat flicker]

Me too

[inland marlin]

he has it downloaded on steam guys.

you are just ignorant people

[neat flicker]

I’ve been playing lots of offline raids to test recoil and more, my aim is pretty good but I’m just afraid to push still for some reason

[wide plume]

Ok console

Jeesus

I just assumed it was on steam

[inland marlin]

thats good, offline is great. now every time you play the game take a pistol and a paca and run factory 3 times to desensetize yourself

[inland marlin]

lol. so you tell me im wrong but you actually dont even know

nice

[waxen scarab]

wasn't just me that did this

[inland marlin]

the factory part after an offline warm up

[neat flicker]

I’ve gotta say, the worst part is when I’m heading towards some place and then I get shot out of the blue. I literally jump out of my chair

[waxen scarab]

it can be a horror game sometimes

specially at night

[neat flicker]

It’s the fact that the map feels so empty when you are playing, and I forget there are other players that exist on the map

[waxen scarab]

hmmm can't relate lol, i'm usually pretty hyper aware and looking around constantly

i don't sprint super often unless i'm forced into the open with no cover

[inland marlin]

blisk just hasnt experienced enough negatives to know what to worry about yet

[neat flicker]

I look around, clear corners, peek properly and all. But there’s so much space to clear it’s easy to lose concentration

[inland marlin]

well, that and the difference in servers is likely a culprit

but i notice when i teach new players alot of them are way too relaxed. just not knowing how much danger theyre in.

[waxen scarab]

pretty much all the problems i'm hearing come from lack of map knowledge but that sadly comes with time, no real fix for that lol

[inland marlin]

like standing up looting in the middle of the road.

[waxen scarab]

god i got a friend who does that, or he's on top of a body looting before its even hit the ground

[neat flicker]

I’ve been killed by a guy on my crosshairs I didn’t see, someone in a bush, someone on the other side of the road, it’s been painful

[inland marlin]

some people are that way i think, its just a game to them, which is fine

but makes playing this at a high level a bit hard with that mentality, imo

[neat flicker]

It isn’t a game

[inland marlin]

but they still want to be that high tier player they watch

[neat flicker]

It’s a lifestyle

[inland marlin]

kek it is for me

lol

[waxen scarab]

if you wanna play like landmark or pestily then it can't be just a game

[neat flicker]

Well even though I’m dying constantly and running around like a headless chicken it’s still fun

[inland marlin]

pretty much lol. atleast, not until you learn all the technical stuff like maps and ect lol

[waxen scarab]

honestly once you got more hours under your belt the rest will come naturally

[inland marlin]

but if you want to get that squared away a ton of effort for the first 3-5k hours would pay off

then its just down to aim, and thats a long term problem

[neat flicker]

Stuff like this only happens when you are new

[waxen scarab]

I was shit my first wipe, a rat my 2nd wipe and this wipe i'm still a rat but not scared of pvp

[neat flicker]

I just need to put myself out there and see what happens

[waxen scarab]

taking more than one magazine might be a good idea

nice knife fight

[neat flicker]

I’d like to say I’ve managed to get over gear fear pretty quickly, but it’s just general fear, or rather inexperience, that’s holding me back

[neat flicker]

I had 2 mags spare, but for the wrong gun

[waxen scarab]

LUL

very nice

important lessons

[neat flicker]

That’s why I was just looking at him, I was spamming r

Then it turned into a knife fight

Bonked him on the head

[waxen scarab]

don't think i've ever got a melee kill

so that's one up you got on me

[neat flicker]

Yay 🙂

[inland marlin]

what are you afraid of

[neat flicker]

Oh, right after that fight I headed across the railway. Without any ammo mind you. As I was crossing I saw another pmc crossing further away. I was hoping he hadn’t seen me, but of course he did.

I ducked under the train and back to where I was before. And hid behind a box. I heard footsteps, then with a single shot he executed me

[carmine creek]

so how does one acquire multiple gpus?

[inland marlin]

multiple raids or one good one

[carmine creek]

well yeah but im kind of clueless on where to run in raids to find one in the first place tbh

[neat flicker]

Idk really. I guess it’s just me thinking that running is a stupid idea. When I heard footsteps in a factory building on customs I just waited outside and held the angle on a door

[inland marlin]

use an sj6 and run to the tech stores in interchange and be the first one to check them all

[carmine creek]

i know techlight, reserve marked room and techroom

[neat flicker]

Cause I felt like running in would put me at a disadvantage

[waxen scarab]

oli has a shit load of pc's in it if the tech stores are empty

[inland marlin]

why didnt you push him. you heard footsteps. what more do you need

[waxen scarab]

it's all situational, W key warriors get their shit kicked in sometimes but being too passive can get you ran up on

[inland marlin]

if your always waiting for the enemy to act you will always be victim to whatever they bring your way

if you take matters in to your own hands you decide how things go

[waxen scarab]

^ Gotta have the initiative

[neat flicker]

I’ll try that next time

[inland marlin]

is that the only option?

hiding or running in?

[neat flicker]

I just assume they have the reflexes to pull a complete 180, know exactly where I am and kill me

[inland marlin]

what about baiting him, grenading him, sneaking up to him, setting up an ambush somewhere ahead of him

most people in this game especially on factory are not very good or pvp pros

theyre just new trying to quest like you or whatever

[neat flicker]

How could I bait him?

[inland marlin]

its hard to explain. thats a bit advanced. but use audio to make him check around a corner then swing the corner and kill him for example

shoot your gun at a wall, pick up a scav gun and shoot after and pretend your in a fight to bait him to peek and headshot him

[neat flicker]

So have him intentionally look your way then wide swing them?

[waxen scarab]

pretend to run away when you're actually setting up an ambush, lie with voip, open adjacent doors then peak through a different one

[inland marlin]

run along metal on another side of a wall from him and get him to peek then headshot him

[waxen scarab]

Shit tons of options

[neat flicker]

I wish I’d taken a vod

[inland marlin]

cant really tell you how to do it. its situational. but you need to be thinking of doing these things.

VOIP and say 'dont kill me im new' and see if he rushes you

[neat flicker]

I’ll check when I get back and I might @ you both for what I could have done instead

I suppose I could have opened the door, and I didn’t hear any footsteps I could swing out and quickly scan for where he was

[inland marlin]

you should follow my pvp guides on YT if you want itd probably help you alot

i used to play the hiding game but it was just lack of confidence

i assure you it is better to be aggressive

[waxen scarab]

I think everybody plays the hiding game when they first start

[inland marlin]

but you have to be aggressive tactically

pvp in this game is a mind game, a game of strategy at high levels

[tacit blaze]

what’s the best starter map

[waxen scarab]

customs

[neat flicker]

I’ll check them out

[inland marlin]

practice your gunplay offline until your confidence then push yourself to be more aggressive and see how it works out

if you fail itll be either bad aim or bad tactics but each time youll learn more

[neat flicker]

Yeah cause I know for a fact being surprised by someone is very tough to deal with

If I suffer from being surprised myself often, if I’m the one taking the initiative and surprising them I could actually have the upper hand

[tacit blaze]

how am i supposed to know what items i shoukd sell and what i should keep? i found a flash drive that i’m keeping but what about other items

[inland marlin]

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

[neat flicker]

Trial by fire

[robust robin]

Mainly from experience

[inland marlin]

indeed

[neat flicker]

Alright then, my goal for today will be to not cower away but instead try to be more proactive

That sounds far more fun too

[violet furnace]

Whats easiest way to kill ppl on office area on factory? cheap one would be best

[robust robin]

Either a shotty with flechette or an ak with bt

Or an ump of course

[deft dew]

you always want to dictate the engagement, keep the enemy guessing and have them do what you want them to do, not letting them think or heal or reload

[inland marlin]

if you pick the right moment to capitalize youd be surprised how often the enemy is completely stunned

[inland marlin]

do you want to see a relevant pvp clip that shows baiting and surprising people. i think its relevant to this discussion

[waxen scarab]

let's see it

[inland marlin]

ill dm it to you to minimize the self advertisement lol, but its for discussions sake

[neat flicker]

Yeah

I need to head off and get something else done so a dm would be best

[robust robin]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/916771644536684594/923286700925534208/1640184554-medaltvescapefromtarkov20211222144534-tr-edit.mp4

[neat flicker]

I can look at it later then

[robust robin]

This ones an original

[violet furnace]

waht ammo? lasermatch or hydra?

[inland marlin]

the lesson to learn in this clip, is that i 1. knew where they were based on the gunshots and my map experience, 2. identified their location by seeing the blood on the wall 3. pre-fired the room, 4. i fell back and used the baiting i was talking about to get a kill on the last guy, instead of repeeking the hallway

[frosty quarry]

@inland marlin Whats up

[inland marlin]

hullo

[carmine creek]

can i stack the SJ6 with energy drinks like maxenergy or hotrod?

[waxen scarab]

Yesterday i got really lazy and was just wandering through the open on my way to extract from shoreline when i hear somebody sprinting up to me. Literally no cover or bushes or anything so the only cover i got is the few inches of grass at my feet. I drop to the ground and aim at the direction it's coming from. HUGE guy with lvl 5 stuff, p90 full of ss190, was so busy sprinting he didn't hear me and i got a single ps round between his eyes. Was so mad he sent hate mail

[robust robin]

Fmj is good but laser will do

[frosty quarry]

I would try to use FMJ, more pen

[native tulip]

I don't understand how this works, seems pretty buggy tbh? My raids are all 15-30 minutes long before I either exfil or die

[frosty quarry]

And if possible of course, 45 AP

[inland marlin]

yeah that timer is broken it doesnt matter

[native tulip]

cool lol

[violet furnace]

not eneough to be good, but 4 dmg less, yea, they will be god

now i am going with sp7 and kedr

[frosty quarry]

SP7 is hella strong in KEDR

Have to aim for legs though of course

[violet furnace]

my kd went from 4.8 to 4.18

[violet furnace]

ik

[frosty quarry]

But yeah its a very budget gun and it shreds

[violet furnace]

i use klin, 1000 rpm, kedr is 900

[frosty quarry]

I would use the kedr-B

[native tulip]

Btw I'm a newbie and if there's one thing I understood and I wanna convey to other newbies: ammo is WAY more important than you think. A good gun with shit ammo will be outperformed by a cheap gun with decent ammo

[frosty quarry]

Less recoil

[frosty quarry]

Yes very true

[violet furnace]

14k for gun, about 1k for mags and 17k for ammo ( 3 mags total and one stack

i fukin hate that quest

[native tulip]

When you insure mags, do you also insure the ammo inside?

[robust robin]

Nope

[native tulip]

what quest

[violet furnace]

6 pmc on office area on factory

[native tulip]

so you'd have to first insure the ammo and then load it into the mags?

[violet furnace]

but i need jaegaer for that weapon case barter

[native tulip]

oof

[robust robin]

You cant insure ammo.

[native tulip]

rip

[violet furnace]

thsi time i will get armor

at some point i will star using KS and shrapnel and zvezda istg

why tf when i go with shotgun and shoot 9 magnum in their legs, they have fuckin altyns on them,. but i get folded from 3 shots?

[inland marlin]

you missed

[waxen scarab]

must not be hitting them very well, 2 magnum bucks with ~66% of the pellets hitting the same leg will kill anybody

[inland marlin]

no mortal being can survive more than 3 magnums to the legs

even bosses i think its 3-4

[violet furnace]

i know i am just desperate

[inland marlin]

desperate lol what do you mean

[waxen scarab]

factory office pmc kills

[inland marlin]

desperate to kill him? altyn chads are scary to be fair

aha

well keep at it magnum is a good choice itll happen sooner than you think

tons of naked ppl on factory you just need a raid witht he right enemies

[violet furnace]

desperate - as in i am going on that map 10th time today, and i killed only 2 ppl

[waxen scarab]

nobody ever expects a guy laying down in the hallway with a 153 full of magnum fuck

[inland marlin]

XD but the experience your gaining is invaluable

if its that hard for you youll only be better for it when you end up completing it

then next wipe youll do it first try

[violet furnace]

the experience of "how should i jump form window"?

[inland marlin]

no the experience of "head,eyes"

and hopefully, how to avoid it better each time

[fast wadi]

toz to your head

[violet furnace]

And now, when I camp here

Noone goes there

Fml

[inland marlin]

XD

[narrow gull]

if you make noise in offices people won't go there
you need to let hem go in first

[inland marlin]

nobody you want to go up there anyways XD

[waxen scarab]

I feel kinda bad, the way i did that task was jaeger's "Kill scavs without NVG's at nighttime" I thought factory would be a decent place to try it out. At top floor of offices were 4 naked pmc's with pistols i mowed down with a shotty to complete the quest

[violet furnace]

i got best spawn, run for my life there, and then some chad with rpk entered

get magnumed, lol

inspect mag "about half" in stash it was 65/95 ammo

[robust robin]

Bt?

[narrow gull]

about half can mean anywhere from 50-75% without any mag drills skill

[inland marlin]

LOL NICE

get magnumed haha

[violet furnace]

40 igolnik

[left summit]

is this to much in the gamma container ?

[fast wadi]

grizzly can fix fractures afaik

so no need for the cms

[robust robin]

If it isnt full then no

[violet furnace]

nah, its good, just take some ammo with u

[fast wadi]

50 hp for fracture

less then heavy bleed

[narrow gull]

cms doesn't fix fractures, it fixes blacked out limbs

[fast wadi]

oh yeah

[robust robin]

He might be thinking of surv

[fast wadi]

yeah, yeah

[left summit]

yeah i put in ammo to everytime

[fast wadi]

sorry

[narrow gull]

surv kit fixes fractures as a side gig, it's mainly for blacked out limbs

[ornate steppe]

whats the cheapest way to buy fuel for my hideout?

[narrow gull]

you'd use it over cms because it restores more hp to the limb

[robust robin]

2 propane and fuel conditioner barter

[violet furnace]

i thnik CMS restores more

[narrow gull]

no, surv kit restores more than cms

[violet furnace]

ok

[narrow gull]

The Surv12 field surgical kit restores a destroyed ("blacked-out") body part to 1 HP. The player can use medkits afterwards, to heal the body part further.
Destroyed parts that are restored with a Surv12 field surgical kit will only have 60% - 72% of their maximum HP for the remainder of the raid. If the body part is destroyed a subsequent time, performing surgery again will lower the maximum HP of that body part further.
Neither the head nor the thorax can be repaired after being destroyed.
The Surv12 field surgical kit will not only restore a destroyed body part, but will simultaneously remove a fracture from that same body part when used.
surv kit

The CMS kit restores a destroyed ("blacked-out") body part to 1 HP. The player can use medkits afterwards, to heal the body part further.
Destroyed parts that are restored with a CMS kit will only have 25% - 45% of their maximum HP for the remainder of the raid. If the body part is destroyed a subsequent time, performing surgery again will lower the maximum HP of that body part further.
Neither the head nor the thorax can be repaired after being destroyed.
cms kit

[violet furnace]

btw, where and what weapon is best to do the tarkov shooter 1? u need to kill scavs from 40 meters with iron sight

[narrow gull]

imo the easiest is to hunt sniper scavs with a mosin or vpo-215

[robust robin]

You can also line the shot up with a scope them take the scope off without moving your mouse to get a clean kill

[brittle canyon]

you can pay a little bit extra and get an sv instead of a mosin and actually have something called ergonomics

[narrow gull]

but if you do use vpo make sure to use eko rounds since the rifle is zeroed for it

[robust robin]

Laughs in ap-m

[violet furnace]

thanks man

[amber elbow]

Exactly ap-m where it’s at

[narrow gull]

ap-m has like 25% less mv and will hit lower than zeroed

[brittle canyon]

not like you’re gonna do sbih with it

[deft dew]

AP-M will still onetap most scavs to the thorax even if you miss the head

[narrow gull]

even at 50m you'll hit thorax instead of head

[robust robin]

The furthest im shooting with a vpo for 18k is 100m

[amber elbow]

Any shattered light mask enjoyers

Beat budget face protection no cap

[robust robin]

Tarkov-ballistics.com

[violet furnace]

clapped 2 injured man that were fighting right before i killed them, lol

[robust robin]

Apex moment

[carmine creek]

man, i cant for the love of my life find a gpu 😦

[violet furnace]

i got to kill one last man, God give me the strengh not to punch my computer

[odd falcon]

can someone give me a tip how to not die on customs?

[modest junco]

If anyone wants to play some raids I’m new dm

[odd falcon]

😛

[inland marlin]

how do you die

[odd falcon]

i die by getting flanked

and i dont see them

[remote kettle]

and where if there is a general area

[odd falcon]

hill

[remote kettle]

...

[odd falcon]

and big red area

[remote kettle]

off spawn?

[odd falcon]

not at spawn but rly quick

[remote kettle]

then id recommend learning customs spawns and think about how players get to places after spawn

because they know where you might have spawned and the route you will take, so they ambush you

[tame shard]

hello, can i do anything with dog tags?

[fast wadi]

You can sell them, barter with them, and you need some later for quests

[remote kettle]

id save 8 lvl 15 of each for gs 6. there are barters for them and the pk 3 rsass barter is god tier for gs6

because you cant buy the rsass from flea market

[tame shard]

Alright, i killed a lvl 23 pmc and just took it. Guess ill keep it for now

[hidden ermine]

any good map for scav?

[robust robin]

Lighthouse

[remote kettle]

lighthouse or reserve

[robust robin]

Or factory if you want to focus pmc

[odd falcon]

also air drop suck ass especially if i want to do a quest

and everyone just runs at me

[deft dew]

learn woods stashes and run those as a scav, 99% free loot and you meet absolutely nobody

[robust robin]

Woods is huge and takes forever to run around thats all

[deft dew]

it's also slightly better for consumable items and general barter items, I'm learning Lighthouse atm for gear and valuables

but I've found three class 5 armors in Woods stashes in the past five days

[shell jetty]

Yeeeep. Been doing Woods as pmc and factory as scav, tried scavving woods and got quite a lot of stuff but it takes many times longer than factory! Same with Lighthouse tbh.

[gleaming cargo]

should I do it?

[robust robin]

Are you standard?

The pk rep is always good on standard to get pk3 but you know that manual is like 300k profit

[gleaming cargo]

yeah I was kidding.

[robust robin]

Rgo is good too

[gleaming cargo]

0.01 pk rep for that much money is not worth it haha

[robust robin]

Tech manuals have a super high cut to flea though

Like mil tubes you can spend 1mil to buy one and only make 500k when you sell one

[gleaming cargo]

wouldn't they give way more Flea rep though?

[robust robin]

Flea rep isnt worth it, unless you think you can sell 150mil worth of stuff on flea

[real sleet]

anyone have a couple minutes of free time to help me with my inventory

i have no clue what i need to keep and get rid of

and its almost full

[carmine creek]

you need 30rep o slot 3 stuff, doesnt worth to put it up

[inland marlin]

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

use that to decide what to keep or not

[bold kernel]

can some one help me with bunker part two

[real sleet]

i mean guns and ammo and stuff too though

[inland marlin]

dont keep anything below 60% durability. https://eft.monster/ and see if the ammo is good or not

most rounds with less than 30 pen are bad

[fast wadi]

guns you don't use you can sell

every gun from a scav run you can sell

[real sleet]

oh

okay

ty

[fast wadi]

since they are low durability

if you need to level a trader, disassemble the guns and sell the parts to skier, peacekeeper or mechanic, the broken core to fence

[real sleet]

https://gyazo.com/ca618e16001ff070f2753cfaa00439f6

i should keep this one since its full dura?

[fast wadi]

if you are going to use it, yes

throw a bastion cover and a red dot on it

[real sleet]

is it better than the m4 you spawn with?

[frigid spoke]

Does https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Decontamination_service have a level requirement? I have done health care privacy part 4, but never received decontamination service it seems.

[whole thistle]

The ammo is

[odd falcon]

does auto heal in hideout count towards skills?

[fast wadi]

private clinic done?

[odd falcon]

or do i need to heal myself

[amber torrent]

what's a good AKM to build for punisher part 1?

[whole thistle]

You have to do private clinic so 35

[robust robin]

You need to do all quests before

[fast wadi]

auto heal has no exp

[whole thistle]

any akmn with a pso scope

[inland marlin]

doesnt matter really. healing it yourself gives some xp though

[amber torrent]

thanks!

[inland marlin]

if you heal from therapist you dont benefit anything

[frigid spoke]

Aaah, oke, thanks @whole thistle !

[odd falcon]

and by hideout heal i dont mean the instant heal after raid but the dot heal per /h

[worn wolf]

is this weapon good?

i found it off a pmc

[odd falcon]

expensive i think

60k suppessor

[worn wolf]

its 72000 if i sell it to jaeger

[odd falcon]

on flea

[robust robin]

The ap20s are the best part about that gun

[worn wolf]

i dont have it unlocked

should i sell the gun and keep the suppressor?

and the ammo

[fast wadi]

what gunsmith task you at?

[worn wolf]

1, im trying to find that thing to lower the recoil for the shotgun

i cant find it anywhere

[odd falcon]

save the suppressor for sure

[brittle stump]

how do i get the workbench to unlock

[odd falcon]

and the ultima is good too

[worn wolf]

he also had this

[odd falcon]

wait

the whole gun is 300k or sth.

[worn wolf]

seriously?

[tame shard]

Yo, so i got 16gb of ram and tarkov usually only uses around 6gb. I saw other people saying tarkov uses up like 11gb of ram for them, so is there a way to let the game have more ram to get better perfomance or does it just do it by itself

[odd falcon]

i mean what lvl are you atm?

[worn wolf]

7

[robust robin]

The automatic ram cleaner setting could help

Although try with it on and with it off because it could end up not helping

[worn wolf]

do any of you guys have the heps key for shoreline?

since i need it but i dont have the flea market avaible

[shrewd scroll]

im level 35 and ive done healthcare privacy part 4, why havent i unlocked private clinic?

[real sleet]

what is the point of taking peoples dogtags?

[dawn geyser]

Barters/Need a handful for a turn-in quest

[wet solar]

im having trouble killing sani, he keeps prefiring me, chucks nades with amazing precision, shoots thru cottage fences and through bushes

also he spawns like 1/30 raids

[keen lantern]

hey guys - anyone know which red dots have little to no sway / wobble? it's getting real annoyin :/

[wet solar]

553

kobra

both good sights, kobra cheaper

[keen lantern]

ok tyty ❤️

[gritty raft]

So I just got a key, but I have no friking idea where it needs to be used. It’s RB-BK but I don’t find any RB-thing on customs :/

[safe pollen]

I have a TGL ASR key, can it be sold

[left summit]

anybody know where i can get the 556x45 surefire mag5-60 i need it for gunsmith part 4

[inland marlin]

rb means its for reserve

[deft dew]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/RB-BK_marked_key

[gritty raft]

Crap

Is it worth me learning the whole map or nah ?

[deft dew]

all maps are worth learning, and eventually you'll have to if you want to do quests there

[near stream]

^

thanks to jaeger mission i learned woods vv quickly

not because how fast i was dying

[deft dew]

https://tarkov-market.com/item/RB-BK_key
that key also sells for a bit on flea if you don't want to keep it

[gritty raft]

I mean there’s like 20 maps I can’t learn all of them right?

[near stream]

what are the best attachments for UMP to make it meta?

[gritty raft]

I don’t have flea market lol

[deft dew]

it's not that hard, keep running them in offline mode or as a scav with a map open on a phone or another monitor and you'll remember the layouts in no time

[fast wadi]

8 maps

[iron remnant]

Anyone on EU server willing to play with low lvl?

[deft dew]

well certain items are worth holding onto until you unlock flea, you can use tarkov-market to check what sells for a lot and to remember what to keep when you're looting

[gritty raft]

Aight Ty

[atomic pewter]

How valuable is the dorms marked room key btw ?

Just spawned with one as a scav

[violet furnace]

about 2 mil

[atomic pewter]

Ok I see...

[deft dew]

can't get it on flea anymore though

[atomic pewter]

For real ?
So can't sell it ?

[deft dew]

try it if you have flea when you're out of raid

doesn't show up for me

[atomic pewter]

Nah level 10 here

[atomic pewter]

Might be out of stock tho ?

[ember frost]

anyone wanna help me and a friend learn the game? we are newbies

[deft dew]

https://tarkov-market.com/item/Marked_key
last price update is from a month ago, before the wipe

[quaint onyx]

most likely they are bartered because so expensive

[wicked quiver]

Got some shoreline tasks I could use help on. Dm me

[deft dew]

oh yeah my bad, you can barter them

[atomic pewter]

Haaa I see
Welp will keep it found in raid just in case for the time being

[atomic pewter]

Good thing ?

[deft dew]

people want other expensive things for them though, like green keycards, merin keys etc

[atomic pewter]

Yeah ok will keep it

[deft dew]

you can barter for the dorms marked key with Jaeger LL3

[atomic pewter]

Isnt price stupid ?
Like three pther marked keys ?

[quaint onyx]

you can do a required search for it to see what you can get for it

[open apex]

anyone wanna play lighthouse with me im new to the map

[atomic pewter]

Will do
In 5 levels lmfao

[real sleet]

why wont it let me extract at dorms v-ex

[deft dew]

the 3 marked keys can have 1/25 durability afaik so you can run reserve to see what you get and then get a fresh dorms marked key from jaeger

[atomic pewter]

Good point

[deft dew]

Car extract, the car needs to be there and you need to give it I think 7k roubles

depending on your Fence rep

all V-Ex extracts are car extracts that are one-use only, have a 1min timer until you can extract and require you to pay

[real sleet]

oh

[unkempt yoke]

I want to do my quest on lighthouse but im scared of rouges

[deft dew]

you can also check if they're available even if you're not there, if you double tap O and the extract is showing in red somebody has already used it in that raid

[unkempt yoke]

Do they just insta one tap you

[glacial moss]

if you come to close yes

[deft dew]

Pretty much, watch a guide, bring a long-range weapon and you'll be onetapping them in no time

[glacial moss]

but they only spawn in a specific area if u avoid them ul be fine

[unkempt yoke]

And im also a bear

[bold kernel]

can one of you help me with bunker part two

[odd falcon]

why does the ifak not remove heavy bleeding even tho it says it does?

[glacial moss]

it needs to be at 210/300

or above

[odd falcon]

wtf

[deft dew]

when you inspect the medkit it tells you

[bold kernel]

who wants to run some raids together

[deft dew]

#pvp-lfg

[real sleet]

wow first pmc raid was a success

[dawn geyser]

Nice job!

[real sleet]

ty for telling me that coral i sat there for like a minute

i also got a kill 😎

on an actual person this time

[sacred tendon]

anyone else been stuck in awaiting session start for over 10 mins?

[shrewd scroll]

can someone help me organise my stash?
please

[near stream]

where can i find nuts

i swear they are impossible to find

im 2 nuts away from getting my wb

[sacred tendon]

i could try to help, im no expert tho

platt

[quaint onyx]

they are pretty much everywhere

[real sleet]

can you help me too kurome

[dawn geyser]

If you are on a scav run, and have been stuck on 'Awaiting session start' specifically for more than 5 minutes, Alt+F4 and restart

[sacred tendon]

ok, ill do that

[deft dew]

I got stuck on "synchronizing" today twice, only on Lighthouse

[dawn geyser]

When the server and your client desyncs while you're queueing for a scav run it just hangs at awaiting session start forever - For some reason it seems to be exclusively scav runs

[deft dew]

you got a kill on someone leaving dorms? dirty rat, but also nice

[real sleet]

i got a kill on some guy that pushed me at this thing https://gyazo.com/2d08087115d9e249bb0201a9a7eac468

then i ran to dorms to extract

but couldnt do that so i had to go the boat

[opal ore]

can anyone show me the basics or just help me out? i cant tell the difference between a pmc and a scav

[dawn geyser]

Even seasoned players have trouble spotting PMC's and scavs apart from a distance

But if you're trying to tell the difference from an AI scav from PMC, movement and any voice lines are good indicators

[opal ore]

Oh alright thanks for the tip

[real sleet]

https://gyazo.com/d2ade6dcecb5f84c9244c3254c630925

you cant buy this stuff?

[quaint onyx]

from flea you should be able to

[real sleet]

oh i have to level 15 huh

[tough oyster]

does moa really matter for shotguns

[dawn geyser]

When using slugs

[quaint onyx]

if you snipe with them

[tough oyster]

i see, whats the best shotgun for spa tour 1?

[dawn geyser]

I personally use a 153/8 round mag

[tough oyster]

and what about ammo?

[dawn geyser]

If you're feelign spicy a Saiga-12

AP-20

[quaint onyx]

what was spa tour was it silenced shotgun kills?

[tough oyster]

ap20 is craft only right

[tough oyster]

shotgun headshots i think

[quaint onyx]

jaeger level 4 you can get ap-20?

[uneven lark]

as a low level yes, when you get jaeger level 4 you can buy it @tough oyster @quaint onyx

[bold kernel]

im trying to learn 1 map at a time is anyone up for shoreline?

[frail anvil]

Does zb-014 as an extract open randomly?

[robust robin]

You need a key to open it

[dawn geyser]

No you require teh ZB-014 key to open the gate

If it was open that means someone opened it with their key

[frail anvil]

I opened it but it didnt allow me to extract

And I will say we did have it on the list of extracts

[quaint onyx]

was there green smoke?
