[golden glen]

waht rep you get 3 offers on market?

[unique steeple]

3

0

[golden glen]

rip

[unique steeple]

ong

[golden glen]

im only at 2.60 lmao

I wish my fence rep was that good lol

[upbeat elk]

I will probably get it at the end of the wipe if i keep playing lol.

You really need to grind a lot and sell everything on flea to get that 30.
That's 150m worth

And i sell most of my shit to traders unless flea gives me like 50% more. Im lazy

[golden glen]

I feel that

[bold kernel]

It's really not that much to get to 30, I don't think new players should care about it but later in wipe you may be glad you sold some stuff on the flea

I sell 95% of my items on the flea

[quiet kraken]

do i have to fix armor before selling it

[bold kernel]

yes

[unique steeple]

no u lose money 90% of th etime

[golden glen]

u can if you want to get trader up with the repair

[upbeat elk]

Imo it needed to be 3 slots and u can unlock 4th.

Its just so aids when smth drops prices fast and you're stuck waiting for the shit to sell-out for like 10 minutes.

[bold kernel]

I agree, 2 slots is terrible. That's the main reason I'm prioritizing getting 3 slots lol its a significant QoL

[unique steeple]

most ppl dont even reach 30

[bold kernel]

who is most people

[upbeat elk]

I'm at 8.4 atm. Could be a lot higher if i sold everything on flea but yeah... it takes a lot of time

[unique steeple]

most regular day to day players

i reached 60 last wipe with around 1k hours

30

[bold kernel]

oh okay yeah then you understand

[upbeat elk]

150m

[unique steeple]

wym

[upbeat elk]

It's dumb

[bold kernel]

I never said it would be easy, but you understand that it's possible

they should totally lower it though

like honestly 10 rep should unlock the next offer slot

and every 10 after that

[tough oyster]

should i sell these or try to craft something and sell that

[unique steeple]

oh yeah fsho its possible but like most my freinds who play lot less and other games as well couldnt reach 30 tho

[bold kernel]

keep 3 bloodsets for a quest, sell the NAcl and H202, you can craft IFAKs with the pile of meds

yeah he justs needs 9 more h202 and 7 more nacl and 10 more chlorine

[restive steeple]

go in with nothing: live

go in with class 4: die to a duo 😔

[bold kernel]

with those types of barters i prefer to just buy everything in the moment, but sure you could save for that if you want

[restive steeple]

ah yes, killed by a duo with the one getting me being named "fetustickler"

amazing

[bold kernel]

skill issue

[upbeat elk]

Names in Tarkov is just 90% memes

[signal raven]

i keep on dying to stupid shit, which i think is mostly because of my positioning and my reckless play, any more experienced players tryna play with me so i can learn how to not die all the time?

[restive steeple]

I've seen worse names I just think its funny I always get killed by those ones

[upbeat elk]

The more experienced players meme with their names. The not so experienced have normal names. I've noticed because i rarely get killed by normal names, just by some meme or cheater names.

But i've killed a ton of normal ones

[bold kernel]

i got killed by 'bigdaddy43' best experience of my life

[signal raven]

ik but like its consistant im always ending up getting killed in the open and shit

[upbeat elk]

Yeah, cheaters usually have some weird names. Like just numbers, or just gibberish "XXWDDW"

[restive steeple]

I probably wouldve heard them if I didnt decide to say fuck it and go in with the kolpak but even then they wouldve just face tapped me and the result wouldnt have changed

[tough oyster]

how do u make 50k euros

i have 13k so far from quests

im tempted to buy an items case

[bold kernel]

Don't ever bring that into raid. you're better off with no helmet

honestly balclava and a headset is the best set up

[sinful valve]

I have a 50k xp quest to kill reshala 10 times. Is it worth?

[bold kernel]

not bad, he might be hard to find that many times but the 50k exp will be a nice boost

[restive steeple]

yeah yeah I know but I thought I could at least see if I could use it to survive against scavs, but the answer is probably no for that too, sucks that I run into a fucking duo with a class 4 rig on

[sinful valve]

Yeah I figured as much, I’ll probably go with a group

[restive steeple]

gdi man everytime I get near Big Red now theres always something, but before I even had the prapor quest I could go up there and kick the door all day for no reason without anyone interrupting me

yeah for you

Whenever I get Class 4 its a blessing

[upbeat elk]

Class 4 is literally 80% of the playerbase now

[sinful valve]

Class 4 is the staple this wipe I’m pretty sure

[restive steeple]

Congrats, I'm that 20%

no need to nitpick my literal existence on the game

[signal raven]

thats why i want to play with an experienced player, like i just got headshot out of nowhere on interchange trying to get off the outside map spawn to the inside part, there wasnt really any other way i can think of getting in, so im trying to play with somebody that does know a safer rout, not only on interchange too

[upbeat elk]

You can buy ammo at level 1 that easily fucks level 4 armor

[restive steeple]

youre still just trying to invalidate my own experience by saying that, I dont care, sure I can, that has nothing to do with what im saying though lmao

I dont understand what youre getting at

[digital sable]

If you can record your gameplay, I’m sure people would give you feedback on any clips you post here.

[signal raven]

ight

[upbeat elk]

W/e. Dont come here crying about you being bad if you dont want to listen to advice/criticism

[restive steeple]

???

[thin prawn]

why is this so valuable?

[restive steeple]

im not saying for everyone, please use your brain I know its hard for this channel for some reason

Im saying FOR ME

[upbeat elk]

Quest

[restive steeple]

As in, yes, it may be the normal gear of everyone else, but Im low level and broke

???

this channel I swear im gonna tear my hair out lmao

[thin prawn]

250 rn

[signal raven]

like what type?

[thin prawn]

sell or nah?

[bright jasper]

I'm new if you want someone to run with and forget the elitism

[restive steeple]

What youre doing isnt fucking advice or criticism because I wasnt even looking for advice when I was stating that it's rare for me when I get to use class 4, how does that statement warrant any advice, its just a statement, me crying isnt because I'm bad, I know that, it's because I want you to use more then 1% of your brain to understand how to read a sentence properly 😔 🙏 please jsut grant me this

[upbeat elk]

7.62 PS

[restive steeple]

I'll take advice or criticism but you were trying to provide some kind of solution to something that wasnt even a question, just a statement

[upbeat elk]

If you're not looking for advice or giving advice then why are you here in assistance channel?

[thin prawn]

I HIT 25K INSTEAD OF 250K

IM DEAD

[restive steeple]

Thats what I was saying before but its basically a general chat for the most part

[thin prawn]

no

I SOLD

ONE

FOR 25K

[restive steeple]

so if they can chill here then so can I

[thin prawn]

i kind of figured that out

[atomic elm]

what should i do with my labs card im new and dont wanna waste it?

[upbeat elk]

This is not a chat where you cry about you dying and then getting mad when people give you advice

[restive steeple]

????

[thin prawn]

i thought i hit 4 0's but for some reason only 3 registered

[restive steeple]

USE

YUOUR

BRAIN

PLEASEEEEE

YOU STILL IGNORED WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY

😭 I cant take this anymore why are you so dense

[upbeat elk]

I think you're the only one not using any brain here

[restive steeple]

This has to be some kind of condition

you literally ignored the message you replied to

or moreso the messages that came with it

where I said that I WAS JUST FUCKING TALKING AND NOT EVEN TRYING TO GET ADVICE

[upbeat elk]

I aint reading your paragraph. Don't type here if you don't want advice given to you.

[restive steeple]

"paragraph"

"y-youre the only one who isnt using your brain here"

"More then four words...? Hnghhh brain hurty"

[foggy pier]

Chill out - like this dog here

[upbeat elk]

There are 3 different chat channels here where you can cry about anything. Please not here.

[summer mauve]

Awww

[restive steeple]

Suck my dick, youre literally making a problem where there wasnt any before you starting mouthing off solutions to nothing

How can you be this dense

[upbeat elk]

Lol, ok

[valid hatch]

why is bp so expensive swear it was cheaper before

[foggy pier]

5.45?

[upbeat elk]

762?

[valid hatch]

nah 7.62

[foggy pier]

Thought 7.62 was flea banned

[upbeat elk]

It did go up in price a bit

But its reasonable, as its one of the best rounds in the game

[valid hatch]

prapor

[foggy pier]

Maybe not, I really don't buy ammo from flea

ah

[upbeat elk]

The price from Prapor increased a few times

[foggy pier]

imo 7.62 BP was way to common last wipe

[regal ingot]

Is 2.5 million rubles a safe amount to buy the first box from therapist?

[valid hatch]

yeah but i remember like 2-3 wipes ago when i played last it was like 600RUB

[upbeat elk]

Yes

[regal ingot]

would leave me with 1.4

kk though so

[upbeat elk]

Its 1161 now. It's completely reasonable

[foggy pier]

Every death was 2 shots to thorax then in death screen just to see it was BP

very unpleasant times

[valid hatch]

suppose so i just see 4 figures and i cringe

[quiet kraken]

which button was to lower face shield

[valid hatch]

n

[quiet kraken]

ty

[upbeat elk]

m61 is cringe. That's like over 3k per round

[stable island]

since it says i located it do i still have to go back or do i just have to go to customs and make it out

[upbeat elk]

And then there's SNB, which is below 1k

[upbeat elk]

Just survive

[misty ginkgo]

Im a M61 enjoyer. If you just survive it’s usually worth it

I craft my M61 tho 🤷‍♂️

[sinful valve]

If you’re buying mags of m61, you’re a fucking madman

[upbeat elk]

Well, that is the only way (except from scavs/raiders ofc).
And it costs like 3k per round last time i checked to craft

I'm fine with m62 and BP for now

[misty ginkgo]

I’m pretty sure Peacekeeper sell it aswell

12$ or some shit each

[sinful valve]

What’s the best budget round for its effectiveness?

[upbeat elk]

Ah yes, after a quest i forgot about it

[misty ginkgo]

M80

[sinful valve]

Ah I see

[upbeat elk]

12$ is not that bad, dang

But reaching sniper level 7? idk

[misty ginkgo]

RFB with M80 is literally the best budget gun ever

[misty ginkgo]

Not that hard. Just run lighthouse with a DVL - you’ll get it in no time

[glad knot]

do I vendor this bad boy

[round ridge]

yes

[sinful valve]

What’s the point of buying m993 if m80 is just as effective?

[upbeat elk]

I hate sniping and i hate lighthouse lol

[upbeat elk]

Bruh what? 😄

[worthy stream]

pfp energy

[glad knot]

It was my pfp for a bit but you can take it

on god anyone here can have it

SCAV NFT FOR $FREE.99

[foggy pier]

Diaper helmet very bad, most helmets that prevent you from using earpiece is typically bad (unless includes face shield)

[worthy stream]

xD I honestly would cuz it's 10/10 but I've had this one for like 5+ years

[glad knot]

understandable

[sinful valve]

What?

[foggy pier]

Isn't M993 like x3 better than M80?

[upbeat elk]

What you said makes 0 sense

[foggy pier]

I think M80 is only viable up to class 3-4

[glad knot]

M80 is the worst 7.62x51 iirc, it melts tier 4 and that's it I think

[sinful valve]

My bad I meant m61

[upbeat elk]

Still makes no sense

Try again lol

[pure mist]

m80 is very strong lol

[glad knot]

I mean he might as well use M80 since not many people have T5 yet anyways

[pure mist]

rn it hits hard

[upbeat elk]

I guess you're comparing m80 and m62

[pure mist]

decent amour damage high flesh

m62 is just for the -5 recoil

[misty ginkgo]

Someone bought my marked room key for a violet

[glad knot]

Nice

[upbeat elk]

+3 pen comes a long way when penning level 5 tho. 41 and 44 is a huge difference

[glad knot]

is it?

[upbeat elk]

And the -5 recoil helps

[glad knot]

This sounds like perfect sarcasm but it seems to also be not sarcasm because tarkov ballistics are just that sensitive

[foggy pier]

M993 barely provides more AD compared to M61, both considerably pen class 6. For price difference, I wouldn't run M993 unless if I'm using sparing shots with sniping

[upbeat elk]

I dont have the battle buddy app to check the %, but i'm pretty sure 41 and 44 pen has a big difference when it comes to penning level 5

[sinful valve]

See, that’s what I was saying

[upbeat elk]

If anyone wants to check

[sinful valve]

this is the spreadsheet my friend gave me

[upbeat elk]

You were comparing m993 to m80. Then m80 to m61.

You said nothing like that lol 😄

[sinful valve]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Pp8tKScb0jB66cOCJSAlNn-iKERMXd9FVkSmSq83qn8/htmlview

[foggy pier]

Wiki says 6/6 for M61/M993 for class 6

[glad knot]

no he said he meant m61

[sinful valve]

No I wasn’t, I mistakenly called m61 m80

[glacial arrow]

i justy boughtr the game

[upbeat elk]

Ah gotcha, my bad.

[glacial arrow]

can someone help me lmao

[foggy pier]

Only downfall is when AD is below 60, then it has minor difficulty penning class 6

[severe pivot]

if i have a blacked out thorax or arms what do i need?

[upbeat elk]

The only reason people use m993 over m61 is the bullet velocity. Easier to snipe with

[misty ginkgo]

CMS

[quiet kraken]

what do i sell

[sinful valve]

Surgical kit

[glad knot]

CMS kit or Surv12

[sinful valve]

I see thanks that makes sense

[misty ginkgo]

I had a guy headshot me with M993 on Labs 😦

[regal ingot]

Wow that junk box sure helped my inventory space lol

[severe pivot]

is a cms 5/5 for 5 blacked out limbs?

[misty ginkgo]

YHup

[upbeat elk]

I had a guy headshot me through the wall today with m80 lol.

In labs

[glad knot]

surv12 is uhhh

[severe pivot]

ok blacked out legs are different right? they need splints?

[glad knot]

Only if fractured

[misty ginkgo]

I've just been dying to chads... Labs is active again

[severe pivot]

oh ok

[glad knot]

then again you can use painkillers and meds to bypass that

[foggy pier]

Basically keep everything there. I wouldn't worry until it gets full - at best big diary, chlorine, USB-A has no use to you

[severe pivot]

im about to go on a kamikaze mission in the woods, need to kill 8 more dirty scavs

[upbeat elk]

I've been killing lobbies and then dying to raiders.

[inland cliff]

anyone have marked for the cult part 2?

[quiet kraken]

alright

[severe pivot]

if anyone wants to escort me to jeagors house lmk

[upbeat elk]

https://youtu.be/6KzYnVxt-sM

Has anyone experienced anything similar?

[misty ginkgo]

I've had some pretty good raids aswell.

Either it's me just playing the game like cod and shooting everyone. Or it's an instant head-eyes

[foggy pier]

My friend has been having weird shit going on with labs raiders

[misty ginkgo]

That's... Weird

[foggy pier]

He's had 9 raiders down in power

[misty ginkgo]

Shiii... That's a ton of xp

[foggy pier]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/859235642604519444/934645121243303976/unknown.png

[upbeat elk]

I was so confused about the sound. Had smth very similar in Resort where it sounded like players were right next to me. But they were at East wing entrance and i was in the middle of the hallway.

[misty ginkgo]

I know that!!!

Had the same thing happen on Shoreline. I was at tunnel extract tho

[strong pewter]

guys i got a gpu should i hand it in for the quest or sell it to trader

[foggy pier]

Keep, you can't use for quest but you can save it for BTC Farm

[misty ginkgo]

I would build my btc farm...

[upbeat elk]

I think i got the clip saved, lemme upload it real fast

[foggy pier]

for quest it needs to be FIR

[strong pewter]

oh..

[stable valley]

can som1 help we with a quest on factory real fast?

[strong pewter]

okay i will wait until btc

[glad knot]

Not exactly but KINDA?

[strong pewter]

wait why tf is this key cost like 300k

i just realised

[foggy pier]

Cottage key is a quest key, pretty spendy

[misty ginkgo]

You need it for a quest

[strong pewter]

what map is the cottage key for

oh

[misty ginkgo]

Shoreline

[strong pewter]

welp

its not fir

[quiet kraken]

which keys are worth keeping

[upbeat elk]

Lol

[foggy pier]

Checkpoint, gas, directors is definitely good

[glad knot]

He disappeared behind that wall and then just kinda hopped back out lmfao

[foggy pier]

Pump front is shit

[upbeat elk]

I got a similar clip from a few wipes ago of a scav just not dying and then clapping me. And a scav teleporting as well.

[upbeat elk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3oGSrc7gls&ab_channel=Trak

This one

[glad knot]

Only reason he didn't die is cuz he was a raider and I was using a kedr with scav rounds

[foggy pier]

@quiet krakenCheckpoint, gas, directors are good - rest are shit sell to Therapist

[glad knot]

that was also last wipe, before the pst remake

[fallen hollow]

I just had the biggest fucking hand cramp when I was in a dmr fight at like 250 metres away, that was a very hard fight lmfao

[fallen hollow]

Doesn't 218 open the safe room on dorm 3 story second floor?

Oh wait thats 214 isn't it

[glad knot]

what the FUCK?

[foggy pier]

Yeah that's 214

218 is loose loot

[upbeat elk]

People think scavs are strong now? They dont know about the early 2021 scavs lol

[glad knot]

I mean if you heard scavs now have 3 health pools and some of them are only about 10 points away from scav boss health 👀

[narrow gull]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Scavs?so=search

this is their biggest health pool

thorax and stomach are kinda boss level, or at least boss guard level
head is still pretty squishy considering they don't have helmets most of the time

[sinful valve]

Just got head eyes’d by a scav on factory

Took the shattered mask… I’m going back in

[glad knot]

I uh just got betrayed by my best friends and now i'm in shock

[sinful valve]

Oh nah

Why?

[glad knot]

rogues man they be bipolar

[sinful valve]

Sadge

Nah Fr they be lighting me up

[stable island]

what causes fatigue

[tall thicket]

You sweet sweet child.

[glad knot]

with a grenade launcher

[tall thicket]

You were greeted by the Angel of Death. The Grenadier.

[glad knot]

This is the first time in SEVERAL runs they've killed me.

[tall thicket]

I think a scav might've aggro'd them earlier?

[glad knot]

The only other times they've killed me was when I entered the tower or whiffed the headshot on the eastern factory gunner

Maybe, idk. But I saw both front gunners alive

[tall thicket]

Also, you were a bit uh close so maybe they got hyper-aggro for no reason.

[crisp thistle]

out of this what should i keep or sell

[tall thicket]

What level?

[glad knot]

They let me walk by that side all the time when it's day.

[crisp thistle]

1 on all

[tall thicket]

Character, I mean.

[glad knot]

One time two mfs walked right into the compound and went to me while both gunners were alive

[crisp thistle]

oh

[glad knot]

I got scared and shot one lmfao

all three of us scavs but they didn't voiceline

[crisp thistle]

its in overall right

[tall thicket]

You'll want to keep that RSASS as it is unobtainable through Flea and early levels of traders. It is required for a Gunsmith quest.

The fuel conditioner you will need later for a Ragman quest if I remember correctly. You'll require three of them for that quest.

[crisp thistle]

keep in mind i only have 300k rubles

[glad knot]

anything here I should sell? I've got nearly 700k

[cinder widget]

If your inventory allows for it. You can also work on your economy and focus those quests when the time comes.

[crisp thistle]

so keep all of those what about plague mask

[glad knot]

sell it

or run it for drip

[cinder widget]

What edition do you have? Aka what is your base inventory space like?

[whole thistle]

Keep fcond and rsass, the rest is whatever

[sterile crypt]

[vale timber]

I killed a guy with an Ash-12, is it worth keeping or should I sell it?

[fervent thistle]

Anyone else have the quest to turn in a double barrel, but it wont let you actually turn it in?

[glossy dragon]

Depends on your play style, I’d say try the gun out to see if you like it

[eager hawk]

can someone help with stutter issues

[glad knot]

Good luck head eyesing them then

[rose trellis]

Hideout I mean

[glossy gale]

[serene reef]

sanitar's bag or medbag

a vss with a valday scope

potentially a colored keycard

smol chance tho

[glossy gale]

never seen nor heard of sanitar

[serene reef]

[short elk]

Throw away literally all of those shotgun shells

[glad prawn]

How do i get eagle and thermite

[idle copper]

how do i fix it when it says awaiting session start then crashes

[azure jacinth]

i find thermite on the warehouse shelves of goshen

[glad prawn]

Idk what that means

[azure jacinth]

its on interchange on the way out towards emercom exit

[glad prawn]

I only ever did customs

[azure jacinth]

do a scav run on interchange

[glad knot]

@vale sky where in B&WK did you find those flash drives?

[wary linden]

so how do i figure out where i am on woods

[smoky moth]

Compass, landmarks and a map will help

for example at around North you can see a large mountain in the skybox

[inner glacier]

Hey guys, I have just started watching Pestily's raid series. In this video, at 15:45, he has on the screen "shortcut keys for meds + ammo top up" - can anyone explain what this means? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SfU3X8I2ic&list=PLZJoJ7H5Zfou35S9qHj_lza1n-geWBW3s&index=2

[wary linden]

tysm

[jovial ore]

any mind helping out a noob?

[glad knot]

nearly whiffed a good scav run

[amber wave]

For humanitarian supplies, does it matter if I find the second optional trucks?

[maiden perch]

I dont think there are any optional trucks

This is the shoreline mark the trucks quest?

[amber wave]

Yeah and kill scavs with the untar set

[maiden perch]

Finding the trucks is optional

marking them is not

(lol)

[ivory heath]

Is it ok to auto sort inventory? Ive heard good and bad thigns about it but my inv is pretty messy

[maiden perch]

@ivory heath I would never auto sort my main inventory, boxes ect are fine

[ivory heath]

Alr

[maiden perch]

there are several reasons for this.

[ivory heath]

why not?

[maiden perch]

1. bugs
2. it moves all your stuff to the top
3. you will have zero control over your stuff, it wont be like you like it.

There are a few more but uhh, deploying 😉

[ivory heath]

Ah, good to know

Thanks

[karmic dove]

Does making money become a little easier once you hit 15 and unlock auctions/barters

[amber wave]

Not really

[karmic dove]

Oh I figured it would be since you can sell your stuff at higher prices than the traders normally offer

[magic niche]

can someone help me with this one? 🙂

[dire monolith]

does offline raid in labs give take key card ?

[carmine surge]

Should I sell wooden clocks or keep em

[carmine surge]

It shouldn't, you'll just need one to load in

[glossy gale]

can you go in offline with friends? or na

[smoky moth]

no, that is still being implemented

[narrow gull]

ye, a lot of stuff can be more expensive on the flea than traders to sell

[pearl pier]

how do i mark everything in my handbook as seen?

[narrow gull]

and vice versa, a lot more stuff can be cheaper to buy

[narrow gull]

i think you can click on the green popup

but it will keep coming back

[pearl pier]

ah thx

oh

[fallen zealot]

this was a cluster fuck

[pearl pier]

does exchanging for usd from peacekeeper count towards the LL2 requirement?

[fallen zealot]

yes

[glad knot]

airsofter

[ocean brook]

Does someone have the RB-ST key? I'll pay 100k roubles for you to unlock the room.

[iron kraken]

voip is your only savoir, sadly most players just kill other scavs and run factory eventually

[vapid flume]

I hate it

voip doesnt work

[flint blade]

voip breaks my discord and idk why

everytime i load in cant hear discord so i have to restart app

[iron kraken]

also depends on map and servers some places people are just desperate for many reasons but this is what tarkov does to people

[iron kraken]

F

[hazy veldt]

yes a lot easier, if you put in the time.

[iron kraken]

anyone for woods? im just looking to kill some scavs

[atomic elm]

what should i do with my labs card im new and dont wanna waste it?

[karmic dove]

Thanks @hazy veldt

[sharp inlet]

im super new to the game i know some of the basics and know customs just need someone to play with

[vale sky]

File cabinets

[split dagger]

happens

[open hedge]

why do so many low levels go woods?

[iron kraken]

depends how low a level some people just trying to do quests you can get jager almost straight away

[open hedge]

oh yea some people go for it immediatly

im just wondering because every time i go woods i kill 2-4 people under level 10

[iron kraken]

ah they just learning the hard way xD

[open hedge]

guess so

[hazy veldt]

a lot of quests early on, you got the iskra deliveries, then I think two different scav kill ones

ofc getting jaeger unlocked

• it's a fairly peaceful map since it's so large

[open hedge]

well i like to play super aggressive on wood so i guess im just a noob hunter

sorry low levels i will help you in this chat

but on woods

i kill anything that moves

[coral osprey]

Is their any use for the ripstop and fleece ?

[bold kernel]

How often do they do wipes and do you legit start back from 0?

[short elk]

6-8 months and yes.

[bold kernel]

thanks!

[obtuse cove]

Basically a new season

and by that time you'll want a wipe, because you'll feel....fresh

[ivory heath]

Whens the next wipe?

[obtuse cove]

Like the fall(like October prbly)

[digital badge]

crafting and also the textile quests from ragman you get around level 40-42

[ivory heath]

gawd damn, did I join at the beginning of a wipe or something?

[obtuse cove]

Yea

It wiped on December 12th

[ivory heath]

ahhhh

explains why I havent seen much giga-chads

[digital badge]

they also made a lot of changes this wipe to prevent really good gear from being in rotation as much

[obtuse cove]

and all the flea restrictions

[digital badge]

yup

[ivory heath]

flea market is so annoying, luckily im just a level and a half away but I just want to sell my graphics cards q-q

[pure mist]

I love it lol makes me stronger that Timmies can’t just buy bp lol

[digital badge]

facts

bp is making me broke though like 1k a bullet gawd damn

[ivory heath]

1k PER BULLET

[digital badge]

yeah

[ivory heath]

Wuh

How

[pure mist]

Lol 1k isn’t that bad tbh

[ivory heath]

._.

[digital badge]

it is when you wanna load 5 mags for a mutant build

[ivory heath]

How tf you guys make so much

[pure mist]

I do

[iron kraken]

scav good or just be a bawz

[pure mist]

I don’t make that much I just plays really stupidly and casually pushing fights sitting 16 mil rn

[iron kraken]

also being lvl 15 to use the flea market helps a lot xD

[digital badge]

I spend my money too much lol so I go broke a lot

maxing hideout, buying more sicc cases, keycards, keys, etc.

all that costs a fuck ton

[pure mist]

You got air filtering yet?

[digital badge]

nah im not pushing max skills this wipe

[ivory heath]

Ive been stuck at 200k for a while, dont want to buy too much from ragman so ive been playing mostly scav. Which wouldnt be so bad if I didnt have -3.1 rep

[pure mist]

Air filtering and btc farm and solar are the money sinks

[digital badge]

I have classes so I dont really have as much time to grind as I did last wipe

[iron kraken]

bruh you have most problems but the good ones

[pure mist]

Same lol I’ve been level 43 for 2 weeks

[digital badge]

heating 3 was what sunk me lol

and scav case

[mighty kernel]

Best full auto AR this wype?

[pure mist]

You just gotta bite the bullet lol

[pure mist]

Isn’t one lol

[ivory heath]

And the bad ones are...? Couldnt imagine that

[pure mist]

M4 hks sucks pretty bad this wipe

[digital badge]

im also lazy so I buy a sicc case for each map so I dont have to move my keys between them

[iron kraken]

you got my point backwards xD

[ivory heath]

oh.... uh oh

[pure mist]

Yeah I feel ya I have 3 sicc cases one docs for each of the map I play (customs shoreline labs inter)

[short elk]

I found someone on flea selling a mtube for 3k euro and it's the only reason I'm not poor right now lmao

[coarse raptor]

Is there a scav heavy area of the woods that players generally don't go to due to bad loot or anything? Need to get 5 scav kills without body armor and bad luck so far of constantly running into a player lol

[digital badge]

I sniped mine for like 700k and 800k but still expensive lol

[digital badge]

scav house down by outskirts

usually 2-3 spawn there

[pure mist]

@digital badge I’m not doing btc farm and scav case this wipe. You?

[digital badge]

ye I already have both

[iron kraken]

you want to deal with shitty scavs and be good scav if you struggle with money because they get filtered out through the wipe, a normal scav run is like 300-500k without flea market

[pure mist]

I don’t bother with btc farm usually

I do get a extreme amount of non fir gpus tho

[digital badge]

it pays for the fuel so 🤷‍♂️

[ivory heath]

Aint no way a regular scav run is 300-500k, what are you grabbing?

[coarse raptor]

300-500k is easily doable

[pure mist]

It’s pretty normal lol

[ivory heath]

._.

[coarse raptor]

my last run I got 700k

[digital badge]

I mean usually you spawn with like 200k worth of stuff at least

[iron kraken]

nope best bet might be try sniper rock not many people go directly to it just loot around it

[ivory heath]

Aint no way, pulling up mine rn

[iron kraken]

you need to learn where to look what to look for etc also think space taken in inventory per cash gained. silly items like poxeram and morphine stack up cash fast theres condensed milk all over too thats 15k

[ivory heath]

All of those are 15k each?! Where are you selling them cause I dont for a damn fact therapist aint that gernerous

huh

guess they are

[pure mist]

Lmao

Lol

[ivory heath]

Well now i feel stupid

[coarse raptor]

also things like bolts

[digital badge]

do you have flea?

[coarse raptor]

20k+ easy

[pure mist]

Condensed milk kek tapes poxeram are insta grabs etc bc they are easy to vendor

[iron kraken]

youll get there mate just time and learning ❤️

[ivory heath]

Not yet, but poxeram at therapist is easy 12k

[digital badge]

ah thats why then

once you get to flea your mind is literally gonna be blown lol

[coarse raptor]

ok yeah, before flea 300-500k can seem nuts lol

[iron kraken]

the sewing kits are 30k

[digital badge]

items that you think are trash are gonna make you bank on flea

[ivory heath]

my god

[digital badge]

some shit weapon part? Guess what you need it for gunsmith 80k lmao

[pure mist]

I suggest people don’t worry about money til after flea

[ivory heath]

I need to worry, ragman beating my ass up man

[pure mist]

Or.. after max traders lol

[ivory heath]

But ima sell all my 15 poxeram rq

[digital badge]

lots of people dont make it to max traders

kinda silly to tell them to wait until then

[pure mist]

No I meant don’t worry about doing money runs

[digital badge]

ohh

gotcha

[pure mist]

Like if I have 2 mil don’t worry about it it’s not a problem

Once people have max traders money is just ez clap

[ivory heath]

Should I sell handrill, 38k but I feel like its rare

[thin pasture]

Can someone help me? Im stuck on prapor quest : No place for Renegades. I can never find the raiders in the underground bunker on reserve

[iron kraken]

i get it all as i go i have 3 scav boxes 1 for very valuable other 2 for hideout and tasks i played 5 days and i have 28 million stash worth and i get thats really slow but im happy knowing im sorted when i need something main pain is getting levels to buy or trade for cases to sort stash im always full because i cant store meds or bullets its big sadge low level problems D

[iron kraken]

you need a few for your hideout

[ivory heath]

alr

[wild kestrel]

Need a chad with keycards to carry me in a labs raid

[ivory heath]

I could also use a chad with keycards to carry me in labs raid

[stuck pollen]

anybody know of a good way to quickly check whether or not an item is used in a quest or the hideout? need to clear out my scav junkbox

[thin pasture]

Raiders are not spawning in underground bunker. Whats the deal? How do you complete this quest?

[pure mist]

Quest 24 7 lol

[iron kraken]

wiki

[iron kraken]

im too noob for that xD i just figured out which end of the gun goes brrr

im sure i shoot myself more than anyone else

[pure mist]

Quest is certainly easy enough and will teach you map knowledge lol

Just follow some guides and start questing

[iron kraken]

i know ill have to bite the bullet eventually but ill find me a buddy first so i dont go through the trauma alone 😂

[full star]

Should I sell all of this to traders or wait until I have access to flea? I am at level 9

[iron kraken]

you should look up what you need for hideout on wiki because you have a bunch to sell to therapist and a bunch you need

pog

[lavish tinsel]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Loot Could also check this if you have concerns

[iron kraken]

you had nothing fam when you click scav never get hopes up always celebrate whn it says survived otherwise the loot changes how you play

although big sadge i feel the pain

dont let tarkov tarkov you

[coarse raptor]

Does crafting continue when you logout?

[short elk]

Yes

[buoyant arch]

I suggest u sell all the purple background items to therapist. They have sell the same price on flea and u dont rlly need them atm

[short elk]

M856A1 might be the only one you have access to? Mind you the caliber in general was nerfed this wipe and there is better options. https://eft.monster/

m855A1 is better but do not know if it's flea banned or not

[agile steeple]

anyone for customs pocket watch quest? I've tried rushing it, tried waiting 10 minutes, tried waiting 20 minutes, and finally I'm just about to call it impossible

[dire monolith]

try night time @agile steeple

[agile steeple]

oh shucks. literally the only way to approach the quest I havent tried yet. Wonder what fully kitted chad will bring at night time

[native viper]

yo guys anyone free to help me free up some space on my stash?

[iron kraken]

come to customs lfg 12

im going to get a cup of tea brb

[native viper]

does anyone have any spare customs key they dont need so i can do dilvery from past quest?

[chilly light]

can you scope with night vision goggles?

[short elk]

Depends on scope. Holos will not work.

Regular sniper scopes or anything with etched on lines rather than laser ones will work

[stiff knoll]

Hi yall I'm wondering if I have a quest at 50% because I went to the room but didn't exfil when I do the run again I have to go back to the room every time right?

[smoky moth]

which quest

[stiff knoll]

operation Aquarius

[smoky moth]

its still at 50%?

means you just need to extract if its already 50%

some quests just requires you to visit it once, but you can extract in any raid to finish the objective

[stiff knoll]

ok word thank you

[boreal vine]

I saw on some stream an idea to bring gas tube with handguard in a pouch to get out with few scopes/mods for just one inventory slot. Anyone tried this? What handguard did you use?

[open apex]

GIGA TANK REPORTING FOR SHORELINE DUTY

[native viper]

nice cute legs you got there

[gusty crescent]

Can someone help me with the jaeger letter task

i dont know woods at all

[limber cape]

What are handguard mounts?

I have a Vs combo gas tube and handguard

And there’s mounts and I don’t know their purpose

[pure mist]

For foregrips and lasers

[limber cape]

How would I go about finding a mount that I can apply a fire grip and a laser

this is what I have

[native viper]

flea market i guess?

[limber cape]

Yeah I don't know what the mods are called though

This my second wipe

[smoky moth]

search for the category, and then examine everything

or examine traders stuff

[limber cape]

What's the category?

[smoky moth]

let me depo my scav stuff first, this run was too successful for me

[limber cape]

I've been looking at traders stuff but I can't find anything that say's it's compatible

[limber cape]

YO?

[smoky moth]

you can do Linked Search on the weapon handguard

[limber cape]

Ah okay

[vapid flume]

Ok bit of airdrop loot

[limber cape]

What map did you scav on?

[smoky moth]

GPU was from a stash

[smoky moth]

woods

[limber cape]

Nice

[smoky moth]

i guess people tend to miss stashes a lot on this map

[vapid flume]

Some people just wont willingly play it, like me

[smoky moth]

i get bored of scav sometimes and just wanna go chad mode as PMC

but none show up when i actually want to fight

question, should i use the weapons that can't be sold on flea? or sell it

this thingy fits 5.56, i have a few m856a1

[dire monolith]

when u barter a key can u barter one that is 1/25 ?

[smoky moth]

you can, but don't expect people to not check the durability of it

[lament gust]

you mean you barter for something using a key that's at 1/25?

[smoky moth]

lower the price a bit

[dire monolith]

i mean to jaeger

[lament gust]

yeah you can

[dire monolith]

like i got pkpm key i can use it to 1/25 before trading to customs key

[lament gust]

Yep

durability doesn't matter to traders

[glass peak]

Any of y’all have the Merin car key

Idk where to find it

[glossy gale]

It bothers me I just put 100k into ammo and died w it all

Went out actually kitted for once lol

[smoky moth]

killed 1 pmc, ran out of ammo, quick swapped a gun in my inventory, killed another pmc while he was healing in the middle of the battle??
and then died to a chad pmc

[glossy gale]

f

[smoky moth]

man tarkov is so intense

[nova egret]

Can I get quest help plz

[native viper]

are the items i make in workbench marked as found in raid ?

[smoky moth]

yes

very useful for turning in FiR items for quests

[sturdy kindle]

yo ive got like 15 hours and im tryna find a way to make a ton of money. I've been trying to scav and pmc rat for stuff to pawn off but it really isnt getting me anywhere. Ive got about 30 raid and ive survived 4 times on PMC. Any like tips on the best way to get roubles?

[native viper]

can anyone tell me what to keep or sell

[bold kernel]

can you carry helmets in your container?

[willow star]

are my stats any good for first ever wipe i wanna know if im getting better or worse

[coral osprey]

Best place disposable syringe?

[smoky moth]

no access to flea yet right

[unique bison]

I keep getting into a raid and it automatically disconnects me - it says "server disconnect" error, anyone have any suggestions to fix?

[hazy veldt]

Rooster, ornaments, lootlord, ancient book

[smoky moth]

• Sell the Christmas Ornaments to Therapist, they're pretty useless right now
• Keep quest items according to this list below (keep the items marked green on the list, the quests will require a Found in Raid variant)
• Sell everything else

[hazy veldt]

xeno, shus also to therapist, you won't need them any time soon, and then you can buy from flee.

[sinful osprey]

guys, am i fucking tripping or does the cottage back entrance key for shoreline not spawn anywhere

[sinful osprey]

trash account u picked usec

[smoky moth]

i dont see anything wrong with usec?

[sinful osprey]

bear elite

[hazy veldt]

USEC is easymode

[sinful osprey]

cyka blyat

bear > usec

im meming dw, your acc is fine for a beginner

[smoky moth]

i picked usec to communicate with voicelines in game

[sinful osprey]

dead feature voip > voicelines

[smoky moth]

rarely saw anyone using voip in my pov LULW

[sinful osprey]

LOL

i feel u

i only voip when scav ngl

voip as pmc js gets me murked

[smoky moth]

i doubt everyone if im a PMC and they use voip to say "friendly"

[sinful osprey]

fr

if theyre kitted out i doubt them

butg if they have a pistol usually theyre more freidnly

usually...

[hazy veldt]

I spam hold fire when as PMC if i'm rushing a quest with a pistol

[dawn geyser]

I only use voip as PMC if i'm doing a quest

Barter for my life

[sinful osprey]

speaking of quests

[dawn geyser]

Voip as scav all day

[sinful osprey]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Shoreline_cottage_back_door_key is the spawn location not work anymore

like

i havent foudn this key

checked every raid

[hazy veldt]

voip + f1 spam as scav to not get shot by accident

[hazy veldt]

it's pretty rare, which is why it's like 400k++

[smoky moth]

why do you need it FiR tho

[sinful osprey]

i dont want to buy it

im dirt poor

[smoky moth]

i bought every key needed for quest even if its 1 mil OMEGALUL

[sinful osprey]

LOL

i would buy it but im at 600k rouble rn

:(

[hazy veldt]

[smoky moth]

scav more bro

[sacred jacinth]

Walking onto extract and server crashes....

[hazy veldt]

do you hoard?

[sinful osprey]

...

yes

lmfao

[hazy veldt]

Sell Sell Sell!

also that's not hoarding

this is hoarding:

[sinful osprey]

sheesh

how many gpus do we need for a bitcoin farm 2 be profitable

[smoky moth]

i heard its 10 gpus

idk

[sinful osprey]

😩

[smoky moth]

i already maxed out mine since this morning

upgrading to lvl 2 rn

[sinful osprey]

i bit the bullet

F

[hazy veldt]

you mean fuel neutral or?

[hazy veldt]

scav customs when you have the time

[sinful osprey]

?

[sinful osprey]

yeah i do that regularly, just been using scav to try n find the key lol

[bold kernel]

what do I do with a container I don't use

[hazy veldt]

Sell.

Unless you think you'll use it later, then hoard.

[bold kernel]

alr

[sinful osprey]

what are the meta guns rn?

mk16/17?

[river yarrow]

What's the cheapest rig that has 1x3 slots? (Trying to run Saiga with 10 slot magazines)

[fast wadi]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/CSA_chest_rig ragman

@Davo SNK#7029

[river yarrow]

Oh, didn't even bother to check the cheap ones.
What about something a little bit bigger?

[fast wadi]

Mk4a plate carrier, tv-110, aacpc. All either high ll or fir/flea

[river yarrow]

Alright, I'll take a look. Thank you very much mate!

[wary linden]

is stuff supposed to spawn in this room on customs?

[river yarrow]

Which room?

[waxen scarab]

We should run some shoreline

[waxen scarab]

some of the best loot in the game spawns in there

or when i open it i get a sks and a empty wallet

[river yarrow]

Just unlucky, lol. (Or someone was there first, if you didn't use the key)

[topaz python]

Anyone wanna run some raids? I'm pretty new to the game

[fast wadi]

Or a gamer chair owner went rhrough if it was closed

[waxen scarab]

got that shag gamer rug

[vale sky]

Damn i got killed by two traitor scavs

Im not mad just disappointed

[wary linden]

ok ty

[waxen scarab]

I found 2 scavs shooting eachother on factory and just killed them both since the karma would balance out and double the loot

[fast wadi]

Gotta like how the "im new to tarkov" gets spammed through every channel

[topaz python]

What else would you like me to put? lol

[fast wadi]

Dunno

[reef token]

where is the best place to find a spark plug?

[bold kernel]

im new to tarkov

[fast wadi]

Use the correct channel for the correct thing

Like #pvp-lfg

[bold kernel]

🤓

[topaz python]

like #beginners-assistance ?

[waxen scarab]

"I don't know what i'm doing please hold my hand"

My answer will always be "Trial by fire, pull up a map on your phone and go to customs and get your shit kicked in till you start kicking shit."

[vale sky]

Which wipe do you think attracted the most new players?

[waxen scarab]

this one tbh

[smoky moth]

i joined this wipe

and im addicted

[topaz python]

clearly said that

[waxen scarab]

I'm referring to the hundreds of messages a day lol

[bold kernel]

yeah i agree, they really slowed down the combat. I think that's what made a lot of people join plus twitch drops going crazy

[vale sky]

This wipe or December 2020

[warm minnow]

somewhere i read that only pmcs have kneepads. is that true? I just had a friendly somebody wiggle and not shoot me when they 100% could have.

[waxen scarab]

I actually am loving the inertia system, if you didn't play before it i'm sure it just feels normal but man. Not having people run like olympians with a fridge strapped to them with laser smg's is really nice

[waxen scarab]

Most PMC clothing has knee pads yeah. Only ai that do are raiders i think

[vale sky]

Im pretty sure raiders are just pmcs

[bold kernel]

this is my 5th wipe, I totally agree about combat feeling better

I liked the quick movement though

and the big jumps

[warm minnow]

wow. so friendly pmc then. interesting. (tarkov me thinks I shoulda shot him)

[waxen scarab]

felt too much like cod with all that crap, factory was not very fun haha

[waxen scarab]

they might as well be with their laser beam accuracy

[vale sky]

Nah pmcs aren’t as aggressive

[hazy veldt]

ANA Tactical Alpha chest rig is your only option early on.

CSA doesn't really work unless you only run 1 spare mag.

[fast wadi]

Or are okay with picking up

[hazy veldt]

Strandhogg barter at Ragman LL3 is a Class 4 armored rig.

[waxen scarab]

bot said this was explicit

Been saving up to just spam this barter forever

[clear talon]

When I play is it even possible to get a t h i c c weapons case? For jaeger level 4 barter? I keep trying and it says out of stock always

[waxen scarab]

keep trying or just do therapist's quests and she'll give you one

[clear talon]

okay

[warm minnow]

how do ppl even fit enough vodka and kvass and whiskey to afford thicc

[hazy veldt]

M2 exists though and goes very cheap at times on flee.

like, if I wear a class 4, it's M2 almost always, since it's so good value.

[fast wadi]

Holodilnik

[waxen scarab]

doesn't have as slick of carry space though

[hazy veldt]

you lose 2 slots

no 2x 4x4 tho.

[waxen scarab]

M2 vs M1

[hazy veldt]

but M2 can be as low as 65-70k

better material :p

[warm minnow]

but how many holodilnik xD

[hazy veldt]

you can fit 32 vodka in one.

• you're not collecting the vodka unless you're EOD/hoarder, you just buy on flee when you want a thicc

[waxen scarab]

turns out the barter is 4,000 roubles cheaper for the m1
I always am using aquamari to top up in the stash though so i have like 20 of them on hand

trade in 4 1/150 water bottles for a nice chest rig

[waxen scarab]

I am surprised how cheap the m2 is tbh 77k atm

[placid crag]

how do I put a site on this gun?

[hazy veldt]

I have 9 in my stash that I've picked up at 60-70

they can spike to 90k at times tho

[waxen scarab]

you can throw on a bastion dust cover for like 8k

[placid crag]

couldn't find a different dust cover - maybe I'm searching wrong?

[waxen scarab]

saiga is compatable with bastion right? idr now

[hazy veldt]

mmm

[waxen scarab]

does it have a dovetail? Can't tell

[placid crag]

no, just has a 'vityaz" dust cover

[waxen scarab]

yeah it has a dovetail

can throw on a kobra

[hazy veldt]

vityaz-sn works for saiga

[placid crag]

okay - so can buy vityaz sn - then will be able to put site on?

[hazy veldt]

yes

[placid crag]

crap - not LL2 w/ prapor yet

[waxen scarab]

that's a gun that never gets brought up so i don't have anything memorized for it :p

try a dovetail kobra sight

[placid crag]

its all good. Ha
i'm getting low on weapons

[placid crag]

no sites come up in a search - I assumed bc I needed a different rail / cover

[waxen scarab]

prapor should have one you can slap on the side of it

[hazy veldt]

saiga-9 doesn't have sidemount

[placid crag]

but I can't buy anything different - think I need to be ll2 with prapor so I'm out of luck

[waxen scarab]

wat

[waxen scarab]

well shit

[placid crag]

all good - thx for trying to help

[waxen scarab]

then how did this happen https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/uploads/monthly_2018_07/2018-07-24_07-13-18.png.0ca6a18b5c926e5d19e3696750396af1.png

[hazy veldt]

early smg you can use is UMP for 7 black grip knives barter

[waxen scarab]

that's a pp-19

i'm dumb

[placid crag]

yea! thanks. and mp5 for brown grip. I've been resorting to that sometimes

[waxen scarab]

ppsh is great for mowing people at close range too

[hazy veldt]

I suggest UMP, it has 25 rnd mags from peacekeeper at level 1

you can buy black grip knives from fence too.

[placid crag]

thanks! I didn't notice I could buy black grip from Fence. Good tip

[hazy veldt]

[placid crag]

how is aks-74u compared to like ump or mp5?

[waxen scarab]

since we're on the topic PP-19 is a decent 9mm smg (Basically a saiga 9 but full auto) you can get from prapor btw

[winter harbor]

Anyone have the Rb-St key and would be willing open the room for me?

[hazy veldt]

much more recoil, since it's 5.45

[waxen scarab]

aks-74u is my least favorite gun in the game because you have to throw alot of money at it to make it decent, basically any other ak would be better imo

[hazy veldt]

Yes.

[placid crag]

aha. got it

k

[hazy veldt]

it can be okay for factory work especially with 60rnd mag

[waxen scarab]

even then i'd still prefer an ump or mp5, if you got it use it but i would never buy one

[hazy veldt]

UMP and MP5 don't have access to good class4+ armor penetrating ammo early though.

Usually not a problem, but if some Altyn chad is in factory, can be a problem.

granted, BT is costly to run 😄

[waxen scarab]

hell i'd take a mp-133 shotgun with 7mm over an aks

[jolly bane]

Is warmageddon good?

[waxen scarab]

not really, but can kill if you aim at legs

[hazy veldt]

↑

no armor pen really

[jolly bane]

Alright thanks

[fast wadi]

Leg eaters

[hazy veldt]

but 85 damage

[placid crag]

haha, yea i'm only LVL 11 right now.
I don't have much chance going against other PMCs.
just trying to get some quests done - so I can finally higt lvl 15 and open up more trader levels and the flea market

[waxen scarab]

wow really 85? That's decent, some walmart rip 😄

[reef token]

im trying to get the generator for my hideout but I cant find a spark plug I scav the oli store on the shelves but still cant find it

[waxen scarab]

toolboxes have them pretty often

[reef token]

thanks

[sick fossil]

Anyone finished Gunsmith - Part 12 and wants to help a brother out

[waxen scarab]

This town at the north east of woods is a good spot to farm it, bring some money and take the car out

[vale sky]

Are there any places to find car batteries other than oli or goshan

[warm minnow]

I found em in the barn right side of woods

on the ground next to the tech craet

[bold kernel]

I've found a couple at the metal buildings at the southern road extraction on lighthouse

[solar ibex]

does anyone have oli logistics key? i need help completing database part 2

[waxen scarab]

customs has a bunch of spawns, find them in the warehouse next to old gas alot

[upbeat knoll]

Hi I just updated from standard edition to EoD edition, I got almost all my items except of the 500k roubles, I tried to contact the support several times but no answer. Does anyone got this issue and anyone knows how to directly contact them ? Thanks guys

[waxen scarab]

You're supposed to get 500k roubles?

[fast wadi]

nope

but you do get 1000$ and 500€

[mighty kernel]

Guys what do I do with the FP-100 filter absorber?

[oblique ruin]

is it worth it to get this?

[atomic elm]

yes but no

if you have the money to do so its very nice

[stable island]

when u get flea market can you buy guns that already have attatchments and stuff or just base guns

[atomic elm]

its roughly 1 mil ish since prices dropped a lot doggo

[waxen scarab]

you can set up presets with workbench level one. Build a gun and save the blueprint. Then you can hit assemble and purchase all and it'll get you all the parts and make the gun automatically

[atomic elm]

yo rock i got a question rq

i have a labs key but im kinda new to the game and got no idea how to run it so idk what to do with it since im solo for now

[waxen scarab]

i'd go ahead and hold onto it, is it found in raid? (Little checkmark in corner)

[atomic elm]

yeah it is

[waxen scarab]

jaeger will give you a quest to gather 2 of them so might as well hold them for him, you'll get more later

[atomic elm]

okay thanks

[tulip gate]

does the RB VO marked room key suck

[waxen scarab]

I've gotten lucky a couple times in there but it aint no dorms marked

[stable island]

sick!

[golden oasis]

So my scav just got shot on-sight by AI scav even though I have positive scav karma. Are there any other reasons besides karma that would cause this?

[digital badge]

what was the scav's name?

[waxen scarab]

probably a player scav

[golden oasis]

Gena Zavodskoy

[golden oasis]

Not a player scav

[digital badge]

thats a reshala guard

thats why you got shot on sight

[golden oasis]

Alright. So scav boss and their guards shoot your scav on sight?

[digital badge]

6 scav rep guarantees that theyre friendly to you

anything less is kinda hit or miss from my experience

[smoky moth]

scav raiders will warn you if you get too close, then they shoot you

[golden oasis]

Any way to tell if a scav is a guard before hand?

[digital badge]

you just gotta kinda learn what they wear and where they spawn

[waxen scarab]

they're highly geared in a pvp zone

[smoky moth]

their fully modded weapons should reveal who they are

[digital badge]

they arent always hostile though sometimes you can walk right up on them and theyre chill lol

same with rogues

[smoky moth]

or their aimbot

[digital badge]

AI is weird

[smoky moth]

[golden oasis]

So in this instance I was in fortress and there were initially no scavs around.
While I was looting I heard a scav running and shouting. I assumed he'd seen a PMC. Just as I was leaving I got shot in back before I could even see the scav

Super annoying as I'd just picked up an MDR

[digital badge]

fortress, dorms, and new gas are all spawns for reshala and his boys

[ivory heath]

Tryna go for a high kill game (dont have flea market yet), would this be alr or nah

[smoky moth]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QKTsyyxmao&ab_channel=tDANKEY

[reef token]

why do higher level players pretend to be skav only to shoot you in the back they need a way for us to tell

[golden oasis]

Thanks, I will keep this in mind in future and assume scav shouting might be agitated boss or guard I guess

[smoky moth]

tell them to press F1 mumble

[digital badge]

you mean pmcs pretending to be scavs?

[reef token]

yeah

[digital badge]

you can just look at their clothes

pmcs and scavs have unique clothing

[reef token]

they looked like a skav at first glance and thanks for the advice about mumbles

[digital badge]

yeah I mean it can be hard to tell sometimes

also betrayal is a big part of the game now so the only way to be 100% safe from it is to not put yourself in the position to be betrayed

[reef token]

it just annoys me because they could have just fought me instead they asked for food first
