[brittle canyon]

all other limbs can be lost

[feral bridge]

I’d just snipe them

Go woods

If you have an extract by outskirts just watch the road checkpoint for scavs snipe them then dip

[unkempt ingot]

do bots have more hp than pmcs?

[unique steeple]

depends what bots

[hexed thicket]

do airdrops spawn in specific locations or anywhere?

[unique steeple]

just where the plane drops it

[fair trench]

is there a better shell for me to use? Seeing these 500 blocked by armor is triggering beyond belief

[unkempt ingot]

regular scav bots

[unique steeple]

what are u using

[unique steeple]

they got 440 hp

like pmc

[fair trench]

7mm buckshot so far

im only lvl 14 with no lvl 2 traders yet

[unique steeple]

magnum or flechette

ah

[feral bridge]

There’s multiple scav max healths

[unique steeple]

he asked for the regular scavs afterwards

[twin tangle]

Hello, how long does it usually take for the new items to arrive ingame if I've upgraded my account? I upgraded a few hours ago and in the launcher it says correct edition, but nothing ingame. No new mail with the goods attached either

[unique steeple]

what edition did u upgrade to?

[twin tangle]

Edge of darkness

[fair trench]

🤢

[feral bridge]

You get a bot message ingame and you open that and receive all

[unique steeple]

have u got the larger stash?

[twin tangle]

No new message I'm afraid, and no ne stash either no

Same cramped space as before

[feral bridge]

Did you click check update ?

[twin tangle]

Yes, restarted launcher also

[unique steeple]

and it says u own eod on the launcher?

[twin tangle]

Yes that is correct

[unique steeple]

damn

that is weird then

[feral bridge]

Hmmmm maybe you need to update you browser profile there might be a button for that

[unique steeple]

usually comes instantly

[feral bridge]

Did for me

[dire monolith]

Don’t lie @twin tangle

[unique steeple]

ye

[twin tangle]

I've done a integrity check (but I guess that is only for the game files), done a check update and clear cache

I've googled a bit and some recommend resetting the profile, but then I guess I loose the little stuff I've already aquired

[unique steeple]

no

dont reset

[twin tangle]

But then there are several videos showing that you just upgrade, restart launcher and done.

So I'm confused

[unique steeple]

contact support maybe

[twin tangle]

Was my plan too but wanted to check here first so they can focus on more important stuff ;D

[daring stag]

oooooh! look what i found!

[sharp flax]

If I want to run with people do I just join a channel

[lament bloom]

hey guys I'm pretty new and just found a military corrugated tube

wiki

[torn jacinth]

ok so this isnt really a beginner question but im trying to do a barter for a thicc case and thicc weapon case i waited out the timer for both of them twice now and they go straight to out of stock why is that?

[valid trout]

bots

[torn jacinth]

is there a way around it?

[valid trout]

not rlly

[unique steeple]

be quicker than the bots

[torn jacinth]

wow this is fucked bro

[unique steeple]

ledx or moonshine?

[torn jacinth]

actual dogshit i thouught they fixed this

moonshine

and im doing a barter for a thicc weapon case

[unique steeple]

yeah u can do it the first couple secs

[unique steeple]

normal weapon case>

[torn jacinth]

true but kinda need the thicc case trade

got like 100 items for trade in my inv

[unique steeple]

lol yeah

do it next restock in the flea market menu

not on the trader

maybe they just want it for themselvs

[sturdy bone]

if i died to a guard, did that mean i was near a boss?

[unique steeple]

if ur certain it was a guard and no one else had killed the boss yet

yes

what map?

[sturdy bone]

2000 hrs shoreline by villa, I killed a "guard" and they were huddled around, died to m993 from a scav, so i figured i was near a boss

[past fox]

Was it by that small house right outside?

[sturdy bone]

in the logs i had a "guard"

[unique steeple]

yea u just med mr sanitar

[sturdy bone]

the construction area next to the two houses where u need the backdoor cottage

[past fox]

Sani can be cruel

[sturdy bone]

i had lvl 5 armor and i get one tapped by his guards its a little infuriating

[wide folio]

Anybody who has the keys for disease History?

[unique steeple]

youll prolly get ur shit back if it was insured

[past fox]

I got tapped by him through the fence behind pier

[sturdy bone]

oh yeah sure i will, but it doesnt hurt any less haha

[past fox]

Or gluhar through a wall

[young goblet]

yeah sani just loves to sit in the bushes by cottage and spray you down when you run by

[past fox]

He’s the hardest to spot when he’s around there

[winter shoal]

is the 2 clin for 30 pack of bp barter worth

[unique steeple]

just check if 30bp is cheaper than 2 clin

[winter shoal]

i mean considering 1 bp round is 400

and 1 clin is 8k

then yes

[unique steeple]

quick maths

[warped hamlet]

can anyone help me get jager

[winter shoal]

the reason why i asked is that seems too good to be true

[unique steeple]

nah not at all

[winter shoal]

blessed tarkov gods

[unique steeple]

get bt tho

[winter shoal]

been spamming this over and over

and im trying to source cheap ammunition

[unique steeple]

wait

u said 400 for bt?

[winter shoal]

bp

[unique steeple]

and 8k for clin

oh

400*30=12k

[winter shoal]

o

mafs

[unique steeple]

😭

[winter shoal]

its ok i didnt actually buy any clin i had it

but still

[obtuse cove]

He prbly doesn't have flea, so flea math doesn't mean anything to him

[winter shoal]

bro

i have level 27 in my name

[obtuse cove]

Oh

Fuck

[unique steeple]

"lvl 27" nice

[past fox]

I just be crafting ap6.3

[unique steeple]

also u dont even have the clin barter til prapor lvl 2

which u need to be 15 for

[past fox]

All I use my workbench for

[winter shoal]

is eft monster up to date

is the real question

because thats what i use to figure out if ammo is good

[plucky ravine]

just look at ballistics chart

[past fox]

Idk I use battle buddy

[plucky ravine]

to see which ammo pens which armor

[unique steeple]

yep

[plucky ravine]

flesh damage and pen number etc

[winter shoal]

nice

[unique steeple]

ap kinda wonky ngl

[past fox]

Ye but I use it to rat

[hoary nexus]

i need a ledx so badly

[past fox]

Stuff it in a mp5

[unique steeple]

for what?

[unique steeple]

rich mf rat

[past fox]

:p

[hoary nexus]

thicc i have no space

[unique steeple]

craft it then

[hoary nexus]

what does it take to craft

[past fox]

Or buy shoreline keys

[unique steeple]

u can check

med 3

[warped hamlet]

can anyone help me get jager

[past fox]

Go to looking for group

[astral gorge]

im quite new to this game

but isnt this trade absolutely horrific

[past fox]

Yup

[marsh harbor]

is customs car extr always available?

[astral gorge]

lmao just saw it on the wiki and thought it was a mistake

[unique steeple]

no its good if u havent unlocked 30 rounders from traders

[short elk]

I mean, after you got your first 4 for the quests, gasans are pretty worthless

[past fox]

Just game being outdated

Idk his rare gas ans are rn

[unique steeple]

nope

[unique steeple]

theyre not rare at all

[past fox]

Dam the early wipe shit with that was terrible

[marsh harbor]

I got like 6 gas ans at the start just thru scav runs

[unique steeple]

ong

[marsh harbor]

in like the first 4-5 days

[past fox]

Didn’t get shit don’t for like a week

[radiant bronze]

I need gas pretty bad
Any idea where the best spawns for it are?

[marsh harbor]

I just spammed interchange

it's filled with them

[past fox]

Interchange is we’re I found mine

[radiant bronze]

I keep searching OLI but never find any

[marsh harbor]

yea

not oli

tech shops

[unique steeple]

tech shops

[radiant bronze]

I figured it'd be in Russian home Depot
I'll try tech shops then

[past fox]

Tech I have found in oli before and power station

[marsh harbor]

techlight

tehno

idk if rasmussen as well

[radiant bronze]

I only know where Techlight is

[unique steeple]

yea for sure

there all right next to eachother

[marsh harbor]

idk, ppl complain a ton how they got no gasans

literally found all mine in a few days

[past fox]

U can run through oli the. Hit tech light texho Rasmussen and German all back to back

[marsh harbor]

and then some

[past fox]

A lot of the community was stuck on it I have found more then before but still not a ton

[marsh harbor]

I gave out a few as well to fellow scavs

hint - don't be an asshole scav and good shit might happen to you

[radiant bronze]

i always talk to any scavs i see

i try and make friends in game because all the people i know who play tarkov are huge assholes

one TKd me because i picked up a 1911 he wanted at like level 2

[marsh harbor]

like 95% of the Player scavs will help you if you're nice

[past fox]

Ima be real I have offered player scavs a gas an before then shot them in the head

[marsh harbor]

you always get TKers as well

every now and then that is

[radiant bronze]

i try and never shoot other scavs but interchange in the dark is hard

[past fox]

Only in the beginning tho

[marsh harbor]

it's highly unlikely you'll run into a lot of PMCs on interchange scav runs

you spawn too late

unlike something like lighthouse ...

in lighthouse you spawn so early on scavs ...

[radiant bronze]

Good to know

[marsh harbor]

just a general rule of thumb for me when scaving interchange is to loot the closest stuff

[bold kernel]

Anyone want to run rogues on Lighthouse?

[marsh harbor]

best chance to find the good stuff

[wintry ocean]

What's the best way to find a compass really struggling with extracts locations I know where some are but I'm finding it hard to figure out my location

Only level 3

[marsh harbor]

you'll get one from jager I think?

do NOT buy one

one of the traders gives one to you

I think it's jager

[bold kernel]

What maps you struggling with?

[marsh harbor]

also, you don't really need a compass

use the environment as your compass

[woeful spruce]

the 2nd quest from prapor gives it to you for free that search missi0on its called i believe

[past fox]

Remember usually wherever you spawn the extract is on the opposite side of the map

[marsh harbor]

prapor, yea, could be

I thought it was Jager

but you really don't need a compass

[woeful spruce]

jeger sells it but prapor gives it as a quest reward

[past fox]

You only have to learn 2 extracts on every map

[woeful spruce]

on woods its usefull for new players imo

[marsh harbor]

are customs ZBs locked?

or just the woods ones?

[past fox]

1 is allways open

Spending on spawn

Depending

And other is sometimes open

[wintry ocean]

Factory I only know where gate 3 is but so many exfill campers there shoreline I know where light house is but same again with campers Road to customs they are the only 2 maps I have played as most of my friends haven't got the game and joining a group at low level just seems like they going to kill you soon as you spawn in

[marsh harbor]

Mike you're new, right?

do NOT play factory then!

you'll just get farmed

[past fox]

Your prob won’t struggle much with interchange it’s the easiest map to learn next to factory

[wintry ocean]

I just do scav runs on there to replenish some equipment lll

[woeful spruce]

on customs zb 11 is always open if you have it as your extract zb 12 you can only extract from only if the light is on which is like only half the raids and zb 13 requires pulling the power switch in wearhouse 4 and having a factory key

[wintry ocean]

Lol

[marsh harbor]

oh ok ...

scavs is fine

you go in and out in like a minute

its good for ultra quick raids on scavs

just learn the good loot spots

insta run and extract

[woeful spruce]

never join any people that you arent in a discord voice channel with

[past fox]

I scaved factory all the time at beginning to get used to pvp

[marsh harbor]

I got so much good PMC shit on factroy scav raids

got a full on Vector PMC loot yesterday

someone killed him and just left

[agile widget]

hi im new to the update im running a 3060 / ryzen 7 2700x / 16 gb ram anyone know why only 40 percent gpu/cpu is getting used but only 40-59 fps?

[wintry ocean]

I've started the parpo quest where I have to kill 5 scavs on customs isi but neva have tried the map I have watch a ton of YouTube vids to try and help but still haven't tried it yet and have to extract with the shot guns

[past fox]

You can buy the shotguns from jaeger

If you have him

It’s one of the first quests if you don’t

[marsh harbor]

I love the MPXes ...

they're so expensive tho

[karmic dove]

Whats the best way to get fuel?

[marsh harbor]

to just buy it

[unique steeple]

prapor barter

[lethal helm]

Buy it

[past fox]

Or interchange run

If broke

[marsh harbor]

fuel is so hard to find

[unique steeple]

i find it all the time when i run customs

[wintry ocean]

The quest where you have to have 5 of the shotguns of the scavs and started the therapist first one aswell and got to find documents on another map to complete quest for skier isi

[marsh harbor]

its rarer than GPUs for me

[lethal helm]

or care packages

[crude widget]

I've got a question, I've just unlocked flea market and throwing stuff up to sell but one thing thats got me curious is that people are selling ammo above the trader price. Do people actually buy that instead of just cheaper from the trader?

[marsh harbor]

depends on the ammo

are you sure it's the same ammo?

[jovial juniper]

i saw the default mosin ammo on the black market

[crude widget]

5.45 ps

[past fox]

You sure the quest to find documents is from skier

[marsh harbor]

I think at the beginning you should just try to level up your rep on flea

don't go top price

[unique steeple]

dont sell that on flea

its just not worth it

[marsh harbor]

just put a price that is not too low so that you lose money, but not too high so it doesn't sell

[wintry ocean]

I think I'm not to sure it's one of the traders first quests it's the 3 trader on the top I think

[bold kernel]

best thing to craft in the lavatory?

[past fox]

Ye that’s mechanic if you do that quest it will unlock jaeger

[crude widget]

kk ill compare prices between traders and flea market

[past fox]

And you can buy the shot gun you need from him and immediately trade them in

[wintry ocean]

And I got to meet someone at a campsite usec I think I need help lol

[wooden rampart]

trying to learn everything and get to level 15 is rough

[marsh harbor]

the game opens up a TON after you get flea

[wintry ocean]

Right that's easier then just got to kill 5 scavs on tha map probably use a mosin for that??

[past fox]

Can go to looking for group if you need to go in game and run it

You can kill the scavs on custom anyway you want as long as your a pmc

If you need just run a scav then take the scav get and use that do do the mission

[wintry ocean]

Well I was very chuffed with my self earlier as I had my first double pmc kill using a double barrel was landed with tha

[daring cave]

Where am I ????

[past fox]

Noice yeah you can loose and gain shit very quickly

[past fox]

You in game rn?

[zealous basin]

Could anyone give me a hand with the introduction task? I don't know woods at all

[past fox]

Look up a map or go looking for group

[zealous basin]

Just a group maps dont help me a ton

1 guy is is fine

[past fox]

Yeah hit up looking for group I would help but not home at the moment

[wintry ocean]

Just need to find people to play with to learn this stuff I found a labs card and a gpu I don't know what to do with the gpu do I sell it to traders or keep it for when I'm a higher level

[zealous basin]

Ill try it again thanks

[zealous basin]

Keep the gpu

You need it for a task

[past fox]

If your planning on going hard in quests you need 3 for a quest that’s not to far off

[digital sable]

Don’t underestimate offline raids to learn maps. Grab a map and just wander around finding various points of interest and you can be good to take it live after about an hour

[past fox]

Woods is a pretty rough map to learn tho

[whole crest]

Mmm with enough times looking at the map

It doesn’t feel that big

[zealous basin]

Yeah ever since the expansion im always lost

[digital sable]

For Woods, you can get by fine by hugging the edges of the map. If you find the river or a mine field, you’ve just found every extract

[manic cave]

I need help to do delivery from the past, i have the key but i die frequently

[marsh harbor]

honestly, mike, you should just hoard everything

[wintry ocean]

Wats the extracts with????????? This mean

[marsh harbor]

it means you need to go there and check if they're available

if you want to know

[past fox]

It’s a optional extract essentially

A certain amount of extracts are allways open some aren’t

[bold kernel]

Anyone wanna play?

[digital sable]

Some of them may or may not work. Shoreline Pier boat is one notable example— you’ll have to walk up to it to find out if it’s active 😐

[wintry ocean]

I'm going to upgrade to the eod I've only got the basic nd I am realising it's not slot of space only £40 to upgrade

[past fox]

Some will tell you before you get there like a light is on or there’s green smoke there

[wintry ocean]

That was it shoreline pier boat

[opaque wind]

i finished 3 of the fence quests

[past fox]

It’s expensive but I never regretted buying it

[opaque wind]

how long does it take to get the next fence task

[past fox]

Fence doesent do tasks

[honest schooner]

Anyone know if this will turn in for gunsmith part 15? Currently lvl28 atm otherwise I'd try it myself

[past fox]

Only gives 2 I believe

[vagrant cargo]

collector and the one where u give ur epsilon right ?

[wintry ocean]

I bought a rifle earlier but can't have the scope mount until I unlock jaegar lol

[past fox]

I think collector for sure

[vagrant cargo]

collector and the epsilon one if he truly has 2

[past fox]

I never got epsilon

[vagrant cargo]

the epsilon quest from fence gives 777k xp

insane

[past fox]

Xp scales hard af tho

[wintry ocean]

The groups on here tidy to play with then

[left island]

can anyone help me do bunker part 2

just watch for people n shit

[upbeat elk]

Yeah but that is at level 60, which is like 13m xp or smth

[digital sable]

I like how it’s called “The Choice” but almost every level 60 has EOD so it’s not that much of a hard choice lol

[vagrant cargo]

eh still a nice boost

if u have EOD you only lose the ability to cheese strength with tank batteries

which by lvl 60 u prolly dont care

[past fox]

By lvl 60 pretty much everything is done

[digital sable]

By level 60 you’re probably rich enough to not need a secure container at all

[unique steeple]

U can put tank battery in kappa

[unique steeple]

Where the labs card going lmfao

[vagrant cargo]

yeah i know but you dont necessarily have kappa when u do the choice do u ?

[unique steeple]

Yes u so

Do

[digital sable]

Just buy a new red card each death

ez

[crude widget]

Whats a good way to level up my flea rep?

[unique steeple]

I’d u don’t ur just built different

U must have all the items by 61

[quiet kraken]

desperately need this cleaned. what do i sell? no flea

[unique steeple]

Ah yes

[past fox]

Sell everything

[vagrant cargo]

well idk maybe some ppl r lazy to do collector

[unique steeple]

If ur at 60 ur not NOT getting collector done

[vagrant cargo]

is it bad if i sell a lot of barter items like a madman

[digital sable]

I wouldn’t worry about grinding it. The bonuses require such a massive amount of rep you won’t be reaching it anytime soon

[marsh harbor]

you don't sell any of it, you get another scav box

🙂

[past fox]

Idk what quest that your going to get but most of that garbage

A lot used for hideout tho

[upbeat elk]

tarkovtracker.io - check there what items u need for quests

[digital sable]

My scav box is for useful junk I use. All other barter items are just roubles

[past fox]

Depends at what state your at in the game mainly

[bold kernel]

xeno

[digital sable]

No matter state of the game I just sell junk and buy items as needed for hideout upgrades. I pay more but don’t waste my time over all the details

[past fox]

If you have eod or just better then standard sell hand drill

[unique steeple]

Sell it anyway

6 slots free

[past fox]

^

[unique steeple]

U can just buy it for the same price u sold it

[bold kernel]

good scav run?

[tall thicket]

Very good!

[spark cove]

moonshine is good

[vagrant cargo]

sick mosin

the moonshine is whatever you dont need money you only need mosin

[tall thicket]

The moonshine, power filter, paracord, water filter, and the electrical motor are pretty high valuable loot items. Several can be sold or utilized for the hideout.

[spark cove]

^

[past fox]

Is pfilter still worth 600k+

[bold kernel]

im lvl 12, what should i sell of the pic above?

[vagrant cargo]

wuuuuaaah

[past fox]

Keep motor and m parts for sure

700k for filter

Save that for flea

[quiet kraken]

any useful barters i can do?

[tall thicket]

You should wait until you get to flea market at 15 and sell the power filter, it's pretty expensive, definitely over 700K as an individual stated prior.

[bold kernel]

ok

[tall thicket]

The rest you should keep for your hideout.

Work on getting the Workbench and the Intelligence Center at the basic level and you'll be on a good start.

[bold kernel]

first wipe ive been playing "full time". Should i sell something now or wait till flee

[tall thicket]

Are you going to go for Kappa?

[bold kernel]

no idea tbh

[tall thicket]

It's known as The Collector quest given by Fence once you're high-level enough to unlock the final container. It's available at level 61.

[bold kernel]

ok

[past fox]

You also have to do a shit ton of prerequisite quests for it

Sell all pliers tape and tubes

Mostly useless other then some barters

Make sure your upgrading your hideout because a lot of that is used for it

I would sell gm counter and diary aswell

[digital sable]

Does any normal player actually do Kappa..? It’s gotta be just like the top <1% of the player base, right?

[past fox]

Used to be easier to do

[vagrant cargo]

im fucking tiRED of this

not doing any quests

[past fox]

Not so much anymore

[vagrant cargo]

DONT KNOW whcih to do

im late on quest

like late as shit

[tall thicket]

Typically, yes.

[marsh harbor]

quests are awful in tarkov

[vagrant cargo]

so now they give me no xp

[tall thicket]

It's more so uh.

[vagrant cargo]

feels like shit

[marsh harbor]

easily the worst part of the game

[tall thicket]

Top 10% or so.

[vagrant cargo]

i need to do a lot of tedious shit that gives me no xp

[tall thicket]

People who practically full-time the game are able to get The Collector a lot faster.

There are already level 70s probably.

[vagrant cargo]

how do people get everything done so fast ?

im slOW

[past fox]

Think of it more as doing it for trader rep and levels

[vagrant cargo]

slow as fuck

[vagrant cargo]

not getting levels

[marsh harbor]

people play this game 10 hrs a day every day

[vagrant cargo]

since it gives me no fucking xp

[marsh harbor]

that's how

[digital sable]

Just do the quests and have fun PvPing and looting at the same time

[vagrant cargo]

thanks to me being LATE

[vagrant cargo]

if the quests were fun id do em but they make me go on maps i dont wanna

[past fox]

Yeah I mean that happens xp will ramp up pretty hard

[vagrant cargo]

in hotspots i dont even want to get close to

im only lvl 23

[digital sable]

that’s the point

[vagrant cargo]

like shit

thats LOW

[vagrant cargo]

its not fun

[past fox]

What quest exactly u on rn

[digital sable]

Tarkov isn’t supposed to be fun

[vagrant cargo]

just a lot of squads with lvl 5 armor and good ammo and i am kind of tired of having to fight them for BEGINNER QUESTS

[vagrant cargo]

all the fucking starter ones im a lazy piece of shit

[bold kernel]

yesn't

[past fox]

I mean honestly if you really just don’t like doing quests just don’t def slower but you don’t have to

[vagrant cargo]

i do

[past fox]

I know a few guys who just play to fight

[vagrant cargo]

i cant get ammo or anything as is

[digital sable]

You just gotta go quick. I’ll charge into dorms with my level 1 trader kit, grab a quest item and dip while a squad is looting it lol

[vagrant cargo]

its boring as shit

look at all these shit tier quests

[past fox]

If you want good ammon focus on peacekeeper

[vagrant cargo]

ive got pk3

[past fox]

Or craft

[digital sable]

Craft Flechettes at workbench 2– now you can kill any player no matter the armor

[past fox]

If you have 3 or more quests that’s kill shit or grab something one map focus that

[vagrant cargo]

yeah from like 2 feet away

[digital sable]

Luckily all your quest hotspots are CQB

or a lot of them at least

[vagrant cargo]

hooray now i need to rush dorms 20 times in a row with a saiga or mp153

sorry man im just

i dont like those quests

kinda wish they were FUN

[past fox]

If you really stuck on a quest to grab shit in a spot like that lay down in a bush until 15-10 mins

It’s a extremely challenging game it’s just how it is with a lot of shit like that

[digital sable]

For me, the fun of Tarkov is the challenge. If I could get everything I wanted low risk stash running maps I like, it’d just get boring.

[opaque wind]

Will i get any more rep challenges or no ?

[bold kernel]

Wow

[abstract phoenix]

[random cedar]

the village next to swamp is good if you want to just loot and leave just loot the houses many jackets and toolboxes for bolts and stuff

[atomic talon]

[green kestrel]

[daring plover]

Hi, is it true that Factory have 5 PMC slots and if 5 man drops there there will be no other PMCs?

[daring plover]

Car extracts gives u a lot rep

[woeful spruce]

it has 6

[daring plover]

Isn’t it only at night?

[digital sable]

I like looting Weather Station + Pier + Cottages for safes while doing stashes between them. The town also has decent loot if you spawn near it.

[woeful spruce]

it used to have 5 before the expansion now its 6

[daring plover]

Oh ok, thanks

[crude widget]

for the flea market is it better to wait until I have a few of the same items to sell, or sell them as I get them?

[atomic talon]

it doesnt change anything

[subtle dust]

how do I lay down while looting something?

[winter shoal]

lighthouse scav runs need a nerf

i spawned in 36 minutes in and looted the chalet before any pmc got there

[fair trench]

should i sell or keep vodka

[karmic dove]

How do i add items to my hot bar? Like meds and stuff

[fair anvil]

whats a good barter for a goshan register key

[royal sparrow]

I have an i7-10870 core for my laptop, says it has 8 physical and 16 logical cores, do i have Use Physical Cores Only selected or no?

[valid trout]

sell

[valid trout]

hover over item press 4-0

[narrow gull]

or drag the item into the hotbar

[valid trout]

i find it easier to do what i said

but whatever works for u

[past fox]

Had to be in rig tho

Has

[valid trout]

Or lenpockets

[quiet kraken]

what's the absolute WORST round in the game? i want to shoot my friend in the head a few dozen times

preferably a pistol/smg round

[valid trout]

star rounds

0 damge 0 pen

[quiet kraken]

(with a, probably, level 3 or 4 helmet)

[valid trout]

damge wise

for real

[quiet kraken]

does it make the person dizzy

[valid trout]

6.2mm

for a shotgun

[quiet kraken]

what about pistol/smg

[round ridge]

7.62x51 m80

[valid trout]

thats a lie

[round ridge]

???

Nahhh

[valid trout]

80 damge

bruh

[valid trout]

pbm 9x18,40 damge 28 pen

[fair anvil]

whats a good barter for a goshan register key

[valid trout]

idfk

[quiet kraken]

nooooooo

[valid trout]

its the only pistol round with lowest damge

[quiet kraken]

pen is too much

[valid trout]

well if you want absoultey lowest

6.2mm

[unique steeple]

why lmao

[past fox]

Depends on caliber

Look up a ammo chart if you want flesh or pen

[mossy moth]

gunpowder is useless right? i can sell it

[unique steeple]

It’s used for crafts, barters

[past fox]

What gun power

Normal one is pretty shit

Eagle and hawk or decent

[fair trench]

is there a way to just farm the flea market for cash?

[unique steeple]

yes

[coarse raptor]

Well you can't do the standard buy low/sell high since anything you buy isn't FIR. Just gotta do loot runs and keep an eye on people selling stuff under vendor price?

[unique steeple]

buy things that are cheaper than the traders buy it for

[fair trench]

Also what should i upgrade in my hideout?

[unique steeple]

Everything

[fair trench]

what should i prioritise then

[unique steeple]

btc farm

[quiet kraken]

i wanna shoot my friend wearing a helmet without killing him

he got a helmet with 100 durability

[unique steeple]

Cuz it’s funny?

[unique steeple]

Lvl3?

[quiet kraken]

yea

looks like a tip of a dick but green

[unique steeple]

💀

Just shoot him with like 9x18 P

Many times

[kind cipher]

is there a way to tell how much XP until you level up?

[edgy cape]

hi! anyone doing runs? I've done a few, anyone wanna roll?

I think I'm going to buy one of the packs

[hidden oxide]

can someone help me understand PVP?

[open hedge]

boutta run labs

[hidden oxide]

also @edgy cape there is #pvp-lfg

[edgy cape]

damn thta gun looks crazy

[hidden oxide]

can someone help me understand pvp?

[hexed thicket]

can you refund eft if i don't like it

[vague nexus]

you guys help with quests?

[open hedge]

no

[vague nexus]

I really need a GK02

[hexed thicket]

they're pretty easy to find see if your scav has it if it has a shotgun and check the little black gun boxes

[vague nexus]

Can you drop me one?

if they are so easy to find?

@hexed thicket

[proven juniper]

is there a way to get a bigger container than the alpha?

[hexed thicket]

i can't do that, it would ruin the fun and the whole point

[vague nexus]

I have been looking forever

[zealous tendon]

You unlock one for completing Punisher part 6, and another for finishing the collector

[proven juniper]

Thank you

[hexed thicket]

you'll find it eventually, push comes to shove just buy it off the flea

[vague nexus]

thats the thing

I dont have flea

[zealous tendon]

Punisher part 6 is achievable, getting the kappa really isnt unless you play 10+ hours a day for the whole wipe.

[hexed thicket]

or get jaeger lvl 2, it's 4.3k rubles from him

[vague nexus]

how do I get jaeger lvl 2?

[hexed thicket]

check and see what his requirements are

[proven juniper]

how big is the document case is it 3x1?

[hexed thicket]

is this your first wipe?

docs case is 4x4

[vague nexus]

the requirements are being level 15

[hexed thicket]

well then you'd need to be lvl 15 and whatever else he needs

[proven juniper]

no like the size if u put it in a container

[vague nexus]

can you just drop it?

[hexed thicket]

oh 2x1

[vague nexus]

cause if I had level 15 I would just use flea

[proven juniper]

thanks

[hexed thicket]

np

[hexed thicket]

honestly man, i couldn't it would ruin the fun and the purpose for the quest itself, just play the game and eventually if you come across it make sure to get the hell out of there

[vague nexus]

"it would ruin the fun"

[hexed thicket]

if that's the last thing you need just play the game out and do other tasks and it'll come

[vague nexus]

well then please ruin my fun

It is the last thing I need

I have everything else

[zealous tendon]

Trading is also against TOS

[hexed thicket]

actually i'm pretty sure mechanic sells a shotgun with one

nope nvm that's the handrail

[vague nexus]

its a remington tactical choke

[balmy peak]

does bp ammo get sold out instantly from prapor?

[glossy gale]

will i get killed by schturman with 2.9 rep

[hexed thicket]

you will get killed by shterman for being alive

when do peacekeeper tasks start coming in

[glossy gale]

as scav tho

[hexed thicket]

i don't think rep matters when it comes to scavs or boss idk though

[quiet kraken]

👍 👎 ?

[hexed thicket]

it's 18k so not super expensive if you needed to drop it

[quiet kraken]

damn

dead

[unique steeple]

f

[tough oyster]

this didnt count as sbih?

on shoreline

[dire monolith]

no

you need a headshot

[tough oyster]

oh ya

rip

[lime nimbus]

Is the ump really good now? Should I use it over the ak74n b cause it's cheaper?

[hexed thicket]

the ump won't have as good ammo or accuracy

[glossy gale]

I can extract ruaf roadblock without any issues right?

[tough oyster]

wtf

[glossy gale]

on woods

[dire monolith]

yea

[valid trout]

i love hillside and merin :)

[tidal briar]

beginner chat flexing

[valid trout]

im jokingh

[tidal briar]

uwu

[karmic cave]

as a player with few of hours in game, which map is best to learn. have tried woods, factory and customs mostly, scav runs good enough and able to complete with minimal loot, but pmc runs I am not able to complete, as I just get camped at the extraction points...

[valid trout]

customs 100%

its not my fav map

but good for begginers

[hexed thicket]

what's wrong with this game? all of a sudden today i'm getting between 5 and 10 fps on any map

[valid trout]

idfk

sounds like a skill issue to me

[hexed thicket]

now i guess there's a permanant black screen so i can't report a person for esp

[valid trout]

are u sure its esp?

he couldve heard u

[hidden oxide]

what are all the maps I can vehicle extract from for scav standing

[hexed thicket]

99%, don't expect someone to know where i'm at when i'm prone and no where near me in a corner they couldn't have had a sight on me and then throw a frag at me

[tough oyster]

what goes on here? nothing shows up on linked search

[valid trout]

lightrhouse,customs,woods

[karmic cave]

will give some more runs in customs then. ty

[valid trout]

im only decent player in here teaching my disciples

[hexed thicket]

you can use mapgenie.io and it'll show you all the loot spawns and stuff

[edgy cape]

so with the upgrades for the EOD one don't you already start out with 2x2 gamma stash?

or secure container?

isnt it 2x2 by dafault

[hexed thicket]

eod you get a 3x3

[edgy cape]

i mean left behind

isnt the same size?

do you get addition 2x2?

[hexed thicket]

it should tell you if you check the eft website

[edgy cape]

or does secure not change, you just get the gear and stuff?

[rough scarab]

One of them doesn’t upgrade your container

[valid trout]

yea

[hexed thicket]

left behind it looks like it's 2x2 with a little more stash

[edgy cape]

is the incraesed stshhed worth it?

[valid trout]

yes

[edgy cape]

i just started playing so i was hoping for a bit of an advantage

[hexed thicket]

if you're upgrading just go all in, it's nothing you can't get with hideout

[edgy cape]

i get my ass kicked everytime

haha

i dont have 90 to waste on it

atleast not with only like 5 hrs

[hexed thicket]

definitely agree then

[edgy cape]

so ingame VOIP is a terrible idea i take it?

or do you only voip with your team?

[hexed thicket]

voiping can definitely be fun but don't rely on it

not everyone likes to talk and more just kill whatever they see

and if you're a scav it's definitely helpful

[valid trout]

voip is funny

[hexed thicket]

^

[edgy cape]

so voip is voip everyaround you?>

how far does it travel?

[amber elbow]

just close to u

it gets louder when closer

[hexed thicket]

voip is proximity based so you can only hear it until a certain distance

[edgy cape]

right anyone know how far?

whats the cone

is it cone?

or omnidirectional?

[valid trout]

we dont know

[sharp flax]

anyone want to do delivery from the past

[edgy cape]

when people say wipe do you lose all your gear?

[unique steeple]

like the first time u launched ur game

[valid trout]

#pvp-lfg

[edgy cape]

omg then why did i just upgrade haha

wtf

do i start with my upgrades atelast?

[unique steeple]

oh

[valid trout]

yes

[unique steeple]

no that doesnt reset lol

[hexed thicket]

you keep your stuff you upgraded with

when you upgrade you get different things when it wipes

[late burrow]

hi can someone help me do the checking quest i have the key but every time i get the the lorry boom sniped

[valid trout]

#pvp-lfg

[whole whale]

F

[valid trout]

guess i ahve to do pk quests

[bold kernel]

are there specific wipe dates?

[valid trout]

no

[bold kernel]

how long does it usually take :p

[valid trout]

idfk

beore this wipe it was in june

so

[whole whale]

they say 6 months

[unique steeple]

a little less than 6 months usually

[hexed thicket]

i thought it was every season

[unique steeple]

no

i think asking for that server is as bad as trading in here

[hexed thicket]

maybe don't ask here

[unique steeple]

theres no best but i prefer razor and xcel

its very different

[valid trout]

i prefer m32s

[unique steeple]

but theyre all balanced in their own way

watch a video

its the best

i like razors and xcel cuz it allows u to hear ur own footsteps less

[sharp flax]

what's the best way to find a group in here? Join a random voice channel or post in Looking for group or what?

[unique steeple]

both work

[hexed thicket]

post in #pvp-lfg

[empty ore]

does rreshala kill u as a scav

[unique steeple]

worth it

that 10k lol

[hexed thicket]

when you do lfg join a vc and tell them to join it if they wanna play

[unique steeple]

also xcels are very cheap this wipe

[valid trout]

im not new but jw if this is a decent kit

[unique steeple]

yea theyre good for the money

but my footsteps are so loud

u said it

yea

lmfao

[unique steeple]

grip on ump?

[valid trout]

yea

[unique steeple]

nades?

i never bring glasses unless its factory

they give u away so easily

even more if its foggy

[rough scarab]

glasses for the swag

they suck in rain though

I dont think giving yourself away really even matters in factory

[unique steeple]

gas welder is fun when u use zvesda

[unique steeple]

i said i only use glasses in factory

for that exact reason

[rough scarab]

oh i misread

[edgy cape]

how come i upgraded and it still says standard?

[unique steeple]

when did u upgrade?

[tall thicket]

Restart the game and in a few hours.

[unique steeple]

its usually instantly

[tall thicket]

You'll receive a package that's basically an insurance return.

[edgy cape]

i got the confirm email

[unique steeple]

like a couple mins but it can be long too

[edgy cape]

idk what insurance ireturn mean

[unique steeple]

in the messages bottom right

[inland cliff]

what level is elite for endurance?

[unique steeple]

elite is the same for everything

[edgy cape]

[unique steeple]

sawn off mosin stock

[merry crescent]

guys i found 2 bitcoins but only lvl10 so cant sell it to the flea yet I'm just wondering should i maybe sell it to the traders?

they traders seem to pay the same price as the flea market

[unique steeple]

u cant sell it on the flea lol

[merry crescent]

ahh i see what should i do with it though

[unique steeple]

sell it or keep it and hop it goes up

[merry crescent]

oh i see lol

[unique steeple]

its connected to btc irl so

[worthy cloak]

how do I keep the stuff the I got from a scav raid to stay on my body without having to put in my stash cuz I dont have space. Is that possible?

[unique steeple]

nope

u can equip it to ur pmc

[past fox]

You can’t buy you can use the sorting table to make room to organize

[edgy cape]

hows long it take to get my upgrades?

[unique steeple]

cant say

[fleet epoch]

Can we wear armored rigs and extract using red rebel or do we need to take that off too?

[unique steeple]

thats fine

[fleet epoch]

Thanks!

[hexed thicket]

my friend is buying eod, it says that the subtotal is NT$4,500

[coarse raptor]

should be like half that?

[hexed thicket]

what is nt

[coarse raptor]

New Taiwan

[hexed thicket]

is that because of his debit card number?

he was being an idiot and did some random card number

[harsh shard]

i have two labs key cards that i dont wamt. what do i do with it to maximize its worth

[hexed thicket]

sell it to rapist

you can't

[coarse raptor]

[red palm]

damn why asking in #beginners-assistance tho

🥵

[past fox]

Lmao

[rough plinth]

because in the lfg chat ill get banned

[strong pewter]

is there anyway i can turn off the hideout generator while being away from my pc

[red palm]

ask in #general-chat xd

that's off topic

[rough plinth]

you can turn your power off bro @strong pewter

[strong pewter]

my pc is in my house, im currently away

i left the generator on

[rough plinth]

oh I dont think there is any way to remotely do it

[red palm]

no you cant turn it off from away

[rough plinth]

you've got to be at your computer

[strong pewter]

damn

[red palm]

rip your fuel

[past fox]

Indeed

Is solar power still glitched ?

[red palm]

yes

[tall thicket]

Yes, it is.

Unfortunately I'm not sure if I've seen it being addressed yet so I can't provide more information regarding it either.

[mossy moth]

i have a mission for jaeger where I need to find food, i just survived a raid with an iskra pack, and it doesnt have the found in raid thing

[vapid flume]

[ancient nacelle]

How do you give weapons/items to traders

[chilly cairn]

im at the point its not even worth to buy a helmet for 20k when ppl just onetap you anyways

[wind crypt]

people?

ive been gettin one tapped by scavs

@.@

[chilly cairn]

i just spawned in woods and i run 2min and get onetapped by dude idk where he was

i used like 22k on helmet

[wind crypt]

i got black stomach and black head with 4 total hp from one shot by a scav lmao

[bold kernel]

If you run up and get right up on their face you can kill them pretty easy

IMO cause scavs don't seem to spin or track you fast

[wind crypt]

no but when they do track its like aimbot man

[chilly cairn]

ye this was a player tho but holy shit

it happend like 5 times in a row i spawn on woods

run 1-2 min onetap

[wind crypt]

that sniper scav on customs is annoying when u dont run an actual sniper and no one kills him

[signal crescent]

who can help me with my quests?

[lusty glacier]

i cant decide whether to use ss190 or sb193 on p90

especially because i like to use valday

[bold kernel]

Hard agree so I just carry a VPO-215 cheap from jaegar but snipers are annoying on customs

[blazing brook]

Ive just had the best scav run of my life omg

[past fox]

Pretty cracked

[stable notch]

Anyone that could help with reserve? I've got quests for teh bunkers and pawn buildings, but the exfil confuses me and i have no clue where im going in bunkers

[past fox]

Understandable

Check looking for group

[tall thicket]

Reserve is one of the hardest maps to extract because D2, one of the two viable extracts for a newbie other than the Bunker Hermetic Door, is often camped.

Red Rebel is the easy way out.

[stable notch]

yeah, its just real expensive

and im not rich

[wind crypt]

Can someone help me clear out my stash? I have a lot of stuff that idk what to do with

[blazing brook]

which is better?

[wind crypt]

Idk whats useful and what needs to be thrown out

[modest cargo]

unmodded there basically the same thing

[bold kernel]

sa58 can do full auto right?

[modest cargo]

if u dare full auto that gun unmodded

[tough oyster]

scav case worth constructing?

[modest cargo]

definitly

[tough oyster]

i have half the items for it and a spare box, the rest will cost me 1.3 mil

[modest cargo]

do u have the booze gen constructed?

[tough oyster]

omg someone sold a gold chain for 3k lol

[tough oyster]

soon

21h

[fickle brook]

could someone hop in a call with me and help me figure what the fuck im doing wrong with this gunsmith

[modest cargo]

then yea def worth ive made over 20 mil this wipe alone

[tough oyster]

alright, only thing i dont have is the air filter and solar panel

and btc farm 2/3

no wtf

it used the wrong scav box

and then gave me an error

and i got my scav box back full of stuff

wot

[blazing brook]

what stuff in the backpack apart from gun do i need to keep for hideout/quests?

[bold kernel]

The bulbex is a crafting item for the generator I think

[fallow solstice]

👀 is that a bitcoin i see 👀

[vapid flume]

this bs intertia or whatever tf it is is killing m,e

[pure marsh]

I don't think it's inertias fault

Ngl

[brittle path]

what do i do with bit coins?

[waxen scarab]

sell to therapist for around 250k

[brittle path]

thats it?

[waxen scarab]

ye

or keep 10 of them for a weapons case barter

[brittle path]

they arent used for any quests for hideout upgrades? What barter?

[waxen scarab]

[warm sigil]

does tarcola spawn in ration crates?

[waxen scarab]

i've seen it before yeah

[pure marsh]

Yes. I find them on woods all the time

You guys type so fast. I feel like a boomer

[fast aspen]

what about beginners scav karma? 😄

[warm sigil]

thats awesome i'll just hit cages then

[static cave]

can I use ps 7.62 in a VPO 136??

Someone told me I can't and now I'm afraid to take the gun in and not be able to shoot...

[waxen scarab]

ye

[static cave]

Okay cool...someone said it would load in but not shoot so it freaked me out

[waxen scarab]

he was probably thinking of the other vpo chambered in .308

[static cave]

Ah I see. Thank you!!

[waxen scarab]

or was it .366.

[pure marsh]

366 and 7.62 share the same magazines but two similar weapons shoot it

So just make sure the caliber matches for both

[bold kernel]

Yeah once I had 366 chambered in a 30 round mag for my akm and mid fight I tried reloading and shooting and I died cause of it lol

[waxen scarab]

rip lol

[pure marsh]

300 blackout also matches 5.56

[dawn garnet]

Go in offline real quick or to the shooting range if you have it in hideout just to be sure. I’ve loaded into the raid with the wrong mag equipped early on so I feel your pain lol

[pure marsh]

AFAIK those are two people swap around

[waxen scarab]

just be sure you look at what caliber the gun is. 7.62 goes in 7.62, 366 goes in 366

[bold kernel]

and when it's 7.62 makes sure yk if its x 39 or x 51 it gets me too lol

[waxen scarab]

luckily the 51 won't fit in the mag like 366 at least

[bold kernel]

Yeah AFAIK 51 is a sniper round

[waxen scarab]

yup, good ol SNB

[pure marsh]

That's x54

[waxen scarab]

FK

lol

[pure marsh]

51 is M80, M61, M62

[waxen scarab]

I think of them like
Ak and Looong AK
5.56 and loooong 556

[weak spoke]

can someone help me unlock jaeger

[bold kernel]

what is your pfp?

^

serious question

Anne frank?

[waxen scarab]

Marie curie

[weak spoke]

@bold kernel its anne frank

[bold kernel]

thought so ok

[pure marsh]

There's a lot of 7.62 ammo. x25, x35, x39, x51, and x54

[bold kernel]

I was scared of doing the jaegar quest for a minute but eventually I just said screw it and went out on my own

[weak spoke]

yeah, id rather not

i played woods like 3x nd im a lvl 8

[pure marsh]

Join a VC for woods

They'll help ya

[whole crest]

eassy

[waxen scarab]

It's funny, doing it on my own i didn't see anybody. Got ambushed like 4 times getting it with my friend

[pure marsh]

If they won't I can in a bit

[pure marsh]

Ks23 time

[waxen scarab]

ap-m on woods time

[mild knoll]

Was on interchange minding my business all of a sudden Russian Giberish

Dead - Killed by Killa

Oh.

[pure marsh]

My highest weapon skill this wipe is gonna be the 155. I love that thing

[waxen scarab]

you run the full ultima build or wood?

[pure marsh]

Partial. I use the ultima hand guard and wood stock. Ez and cheap ergo boost

[waxen scarab]

oooo i might give that a try

[pure marsh]

And the 8 round tube

[waxen scarab]

flechette chad?

[pure marsh]

That and express

[waxen scarab]

why express and not magnum?

[pure marsh]

Accuracy bonus. It's more versatile than magnum IMO

[waxen scarab]

I guess, magnum doesn't need to hit as many pellets is why i like it

[pure marsh]

And -recoil as well

[waxen scarab]

Copypasta my buckshot math wooo
Pellets to kill with 2 shots in leg (lower is better)

Magnum 11/16 68.7%
7mm 13/16 81.3%
Express 15/18 83.3%

[pure marsh]

It's really a preference thing tbh but I've used shotguns for three wipes. It's just what I'm used to

[waxen scarab]

that's fair

i feel like magnum's range got nerfed but i'm not sure

[pure marsh]

Technically the saiga has the best base spread but 155 with choke puts it pretty close

[waxen scarab]

doesn't 155 have the worst (best with buck i guess) moa?

[pure marsh]

The DB has the absolute worst but MOA only applies to slugs, not spread

[waxen scarab]

gotcha

[pure marsh]

It's a hidden Stat sadly

[waxen scarab]

gross, hate those
