[versed valley]

it new thing they added

this wipe

[marsh harbor]

do I sell moonshine while the prices are high?

do they drop later in the wipe?

[versed valley]

they will stay high for quite a while and drop like mid/late wipe

[echo flower]

I keep it for barter but this is my first wipe

how much do you lose posting it

[marsh harbor]

I got 2 rn and was thinking just selling them cause I can't use them rn

and hope that by the time I need them the prices will have dropped

and they're like 250K each

[echo flower]

you lose 30k posting one so as long as they drop by more than 30k you're fine

[steel grove]

or keep them till u have scav case unless u need money, cuz they almost always give u profit

[marsh harbor]

is there a more up to date meta crafting chart

cause airwing's are already outdated

shit's going thru the roof on flea

[echo flower]

yeah airwing's is way off now

[marsh harbor]

I was always gonna use them for scav cases, it's just that I can't build the cases rn

[versed valley]

https://tarkov.guru

shows all profitable barters/crafts and how much they make

[echo flower]

is that more accurate that tarkov-market?

[versed valley]

pretty up to date

[versed valley]

are you talking about flea part of tarkov guru?

[echo flower]

yeah

[versed valley]

never used it i just use it for profitable barters/crafts

probably tarkov-market is more up to date but both work well

[echo flower]

spent so many roubles today wow

[tough oyster]

hows this for labs

[echo flower]

not even some grenades?

[modest cargo]

i would get a bag at least

[marsh harbor]

so just spam meds rn

and corduras

[tough oyster]

i would but my daily is extract twice for a mil battery and a mil cable

already died twice trying to loot

[versed valley]

i would take some spare ammo instead of hemo stat in pouch

and dont use car, at least selewa

[echo flower]

nades will help you root out rogues

[versed valley]

you mean raidors?

there are no rouges on labs

[echo flower]

same thing

[tough oyster]

u guys act like im actually gunna seek out a fight, let alone survive first encounter

[echo flower]

if you hear someone while you're ratting

it'll help?

jeez spent 5mil today

[tough oyster]

hideout upgrades?

[echo flower]

med 3, intel 2, item case

[marsh harbor]

should I hold onto sugar?

prices seem to be going thru the roof

[echo flower]

used for moonshine

chocolate is getting expensive 😦

[marsh harbor]

yea, alyonkas are like 35K each now

[echo flower]

coffee too

[marsh harbor]

sugar around 60-65

is this as expensive as they'll get in the wipe?

[versed valley]

later they drop to 50k

[marsh harbor]

so sell both sugars and alyonkas right now

[upbeat elk]

Sugar should peak at around 70k

I got like 60-70 of them stored FIR. Big stonks

[bold kernel]

is this m4 good

i got it from factory

[dire rock]

yeah, its pretty good overall, though id recommend if you want to run it that you mod it to your preferences

[bold kernel]

i dont know how to mod guns

[dire rock]

do you have your workbench yet?

[fervent swift]

LOL

[bold kernel]

🙊

[fervent swift]

Imagine running a decked out M4 like that and then you feed it m856

[olive socket]

lol ive smacked tyllion before thats funny

[echo flower]

the grip on that m4 is worth like 60k

[bold kernel]

2 man wasnt able to handle my ump

[echo flower]

856 was not the right choice of ammo

[bold kernel]

they also had this stuff

[echo flower]

wow

[bold kernel]

i couldnt hold it all

[olive socket]

llol

[bold kernel]

only one had good loot

[echo flower]

they came to fuck and got fucked

[marsh harbor]

snickers more profitable to craft than sugar right now

[rain wing]

where can I find gas ans

[marsh harbor]

interchange

[echo flower]

even so barely

[marsh harbor]

yea, nothing is profitable in nutrition rn

[tough oyster]

i just survived my first solo labs raid

[echo flower]

idk why edrinks were doing well for me but coffee spiked and they went down?? had to stop selling until I spot good prices for coffee

[echo flower]

niceu

[tough oyster]

idk about yall, but im of the opinion that labs is terrible for money making runs

[rain wing]

keep or sell

to mechanic btw

I also have the dtkp

[versed valley]

sell prob

[tough oyster]

my
meager labs hull

[rain wing]

'

IM NOT SO BROKE ANYMORE

WOOOOO

[marsh harbor]

idk, how to tell you this ...

but you are

[rain wing]

I went from 200k

🙏

money

[marsh harbor]

600k is literally 1 gun

[echo flower]

I feel broke and im in the high six digits, was getting close 10m and then spent over 5m today

[marsh harbor]

[versed valley]

meta

cost effective gear cost like 250k - 300k

[rain wing]

sounds like 86 tozs

[marsh harbor]

toz is more effective if you melee with it than if you shoot with it

[rain wing]

TOZ

[echo flower]

can you melee with guns?

[marsh harbor]

the game opens up so much at 15

first wipe for me

[versed valley]

nah

[rain wing]

still level 9 😩

[marsh harbor]

and I literally spent like 4-5 hours last night in hideout and flea after I hit 15

[versed valley]

this wipe not that much most meta shit is banned

[marsh harbor]

upgraded my hideout like 6-7 times

[remote kettle]

600k for one gun is bad financial decisions

[dire rock]

^

[echo flower]

what gun is the ak-12 mag for?

[dire rock]

5.45 AKs

[echo flower]

so bad ak's?

[static dome]

anybody want to plat with a total noobie ?

[tough oyster]

bout to be rich

[versed valley]

save for quest

tank battery

[tough oyster]

i have that quest rn

its not kappa tho?

[echo flower]

how many cards did it take?

[tough oyster]

4

[versed valley]

yea but unlocks ash-12

[tough oyster]

played 2 rounds with a group, didnt go so well

[tawny owl]

I was looking on the wiki after finishing "Health care privacy p4" and I should've unlocked "Private clinc" but its not coming upon Therapist trade... any help?

[tough oyster]

then played solo and tried to figure out where i was going

[rain wing]

why tf have I been stuck on waiting for session start

[versed valley]

you prob need to reach level, just awit

[versed valley]

its quite common connection issue

[rain wing]

wifis fine though

[tawny owl]

shouldnt the mission atleast come up and say "locked"? thats what happened with some of the Jager quests

im only lvl 30 btw and need to be 35

[versed valley]

its not issue with wifi, mine is all good too but its issue with poor coding of their connection

[rain wing]

ohhhh

so just shitty servers then

[versed valley]

also didnt pop up but after some time it showed

[tough oyster]

funny thing i was i was sitting in a labs vc alone and 4 guys randomly joined, one of them started complaining why im in their vc call if im only bringing a pistol

[tawny owl]

oh okay thanks

[rain wing]

wait so what happens if you're stuck with that?

can you just not play?

[versed valley]

you have to alt-f4 and rejoin to hopefully dont get glitch again

[rain wing]

damn ok

[tough oyster]

always go moonshine?

[waxen scarab]

moonshine is good if you're crafting it yeah

i'm constantly making intel/flashdrives in intel center and i'll throw those in when its done too

[tepid garnet]

A bunch of lvl 35 quests only show up once youre at level 35

[tawny owl]

Okay thanks

[woven willow]

is east building 1 or 2 in water plant

[tough oyster]

servers dead?

[remote kettle]

yes

[tough oyster]

wait wtf mil batteries dropped in price hard

[remote kettle]

they only do that when youre 2 or 3 levels below

[fervent swift]

Majority of players are past the car battery tasks probably

[remote kettle]

with some exceptions

[copper siren]

how do i get better items as a scav?

[remote kettle]

i found so many car batteries on lighthouse lol

[remote kettle]

hope, pray and increase fence rep

[copper siren]

dat pilgrim ai scav looking hella tasty tho 😋

[copper siren]

how do i increase fence rep

[remote kettle]

survive as a scav, kill pmcs or traitor scavs as a scav. use car and scav+pmc extracts

[copper siren]

what is a "car" do you mean the medkit or something else

oh car extracts

im braindead

[remote kettle]

no the car extracts. google them

[versed valley]

https://youtu.be/wJZ-lmIGAoc

[fair solstice]

what scope is this

[remote kettle]

eotech vudu

[fair solstice]

ty

[versed valley]

very good scope

still prefer elcan

[fair solstice]

i been using the hamr

[copper siren]

can you put the okp-7 on every gun or are there limits

[remote kettle]

only if the gun has a dovetail mount

[fair solstice]

that one looks clean though i seen in it a yt video lol

[remote kettle]

so op-sks, saiga 9 and 12, pp19, any ak with an N in the name, (AKMN, AKMSN) and most 5.45 aks

[echo flower]

I keep getting this error, just started in the past 10 min, restarted the game and still getting it

[remote kettle]

server issue

[cobalt sluice]

Nikita and their shitty servers they cant fix

[echo flower]

so much for 'modernizing' servers the other week

[fair solstice]

@echo flower thats my screensaver

[echo flower]

🤣 gotta warn me, I was drinking water

[cobalt sluice]

they have a minimum of 16 million, if all of us had standard edition

[copper siren]

servers running on a lada engine fueled with sunflower oil

[cobalt sluice]

So they have a ton of fucking money to rent servers

They are being run on a hamburg engine

[echo flower]

Is that why pestily bought one? to get an advantage?

[copper siren]

who that

[cobalt sluice]

(not slandering my beloved hamburg)

[versed valley]

thats acually true, they have trash core coding, its like fixing old af vehicle just to barely work

[copper siren]

a tale as old as time

[cobalt sluice]

Do MMAC Count as armor? (jaeger quest)

[echo flower]

australian EFT streamer, one of the top 10 I would say in views, does a lot of solo stuff, his yt vids are pretty good too, had a couple 75k exp runs

[versed valley]

yes

[fair solstice]

why are broken games always the best games 😔

[cobalt sluice]

fuck

[versed valley]

probably yes

[echo flower]

are you doing the no armor scav kill?

[cobalt sluice]

75k? what the fuck

[cobalt sluice]

and yes again

[versed valley]

because some new body armors didnt count

[echo flower]

yeah 75k

[cobalt sluice]

Im doing no armor scav kills

[echo flower]

I would just put armor on

[cobalt sluice]

though i dont know woods

[echo flower]

spot a scav and drop your armor or put it in your bag

and then kill it and reequip

[cobalt sluice]

ill go naked with a sniper

what could go wrong

[echo flower]

that works

I just dropped my armor each time

rebound discard to a convenient button

[cobalt sluice]

Good sniper scope?

that can zoom in and out

[copper siren]

do you get better prices when your trader levels are higher?

[cobalt sluice]

and is cheap

[copper siren]

and do you get more money when selling?

[remote kettle]

vudu, tac-x, new razor (i think thats the name) any good scope is gonna cost you at least 40k

[cobalt sluice]

alr ty

[versed valley]

elcan

[cobalt sluice]

?

[remote kettle]

yes that one

[echo flower]

do maps do anything in this game? I have this damn map from a quest reward sitting in my stash

[cobalt sluice]

ty

[remote kettle]

yes specter is epic. favorite scope. 1x is so clean

[versed valley]

and it has iron sight on top

[tepid garnet]

Cheapest is gonna be tac-x. Id use it if youre going semi auto

[versed valley]

quite trash iron sight but its something

[tepid garnet]

Specter is really nice

Iron sight sucks but is good for extremely close range

[remote kettle]

the actual scope 1x is way better for cqc lol

[tepid garnet]

I always find that i cant use scopes inside buildings because they take up too much screen space.

I use the 1x for close range combat outside, but inside buildings i feel like it limits my vision.

I suppose it depends on how you play and what you like

[remote kettle]

if i cant use the scope for cqc i just pointfire with a laser

[tepid garnet]

Thats fair too

[cobalt sluice]

So the new armored rigs count as just rigs for jaeger scav kills or as armor too?

[remote kettle]

mmac could be worn when i did the quest

[echo flower]

idk about 'new' but I assume anything with an armor value

whats the quest calleD?

[remote kettle]

unarmored but dangerous

the new rigs were/are bugged and still count progress towards the task

[magic wing]

Quick question is there a hold in breath feature like in pubg? My aim constantly hovers over my target making it hard to aim

[echo flower]

I guess try the mmac and then when you kill one check your progress

[versed valley]

ye

its almost in every game nowdays

[magic wing]

What is the standard key bind for it?

[versed valley]

i think its left alt

i use it on left shift

[remote kettle]

shift or left alt

[vital oasis]

how do you do the keybind trick where you put 2 health things and 1 heals heavy bleeds and the other heals light

on same button

[versed valley]

bind first and second slot to same key

just bind one on press and second one on release

so it heals heavy bleeds first on press keybind and if there is no heavy bleed it heals light bleeds on release

[echo flower]

how do you bind on press vs release?

do you have to be pressing the button down before going to set it

[vital oasis]

so if i use 5 to heal bind slot 5 to press then slot 6 to 5 also but release?

[versed valley]

look right

[remote kettle]

in key bindings on the right of every bind theres a dropdown to set press, release, double tap or continous

[versed valley]

there is setting for each keybind

[magic wing]

Thx

[versed valley]

yea i have it at 4 but 5 is ok as well

[echo flower]

oooo

[versed valley]

bind slot 4 to press - 4
and slot 5 to release - 4
thats what i have

[remote kettle]

4 medkit, 5 pain meds, 6 bleeds

[versed valley]

4 bleeds (its more important than heal in my opnion), 5 heals, 6 stims

[fervent swift]

4 for heal, 5 for bleeds

[copper siren]

i got a lab card as a scav, do i sell it to the therapist or sell it

[fervent swift]

No bind for stims

[remote kettle]

use it

go offline a few times to learn the map first, then give labs a shot

[versed valley]

i always have propatal binded, it saved me multiple times and its 15k

[deft dew]

just remember you can't insure gear on labs

[fervent swift]

Labs sucks

[versed valley]

keep 3 fir for jeager task

[fervent swift]

I got it in the stim case

[echo flower]

preventing a blacked out part is def important

[fervent swift]

I'm a devoted fan of prop

[remote kettle]

i have 2 prop in stim case

[versed valley]

i also use stim case but i have 1 prop binded for quick use

[remote kettle]

stim case i use 2 prop, few morphines, 1 zagustin and an ETG

[fervent swift]

2 prop, 2adrenaline, 3 morph, 1 mule, 1 sj6, 1 sj1, 1 zag

[versed valley]

adrenaline underated

it heals quite fast for very cheap

[fervent swift]

Same with zagustin

I don't think I've actually used a non-injector pk since I got the case

[echo flower]

was getting ready to go to bed...2hours later of inventory/hideout/flea management later

Might actually organize my scav cases and whatever's in my bags tomorrow... made a ton of space

[cobalt sluice]

noscoped a cunt twice and 1 scope in to the head from 15 metres

got quite a bit of juice

wouldve been happier if it was a bear tho

was a usec*

[echo flower]

its like 3:1 usec to bear from who I've seen so far

[vital oasis]

dude snuck up on me sniping and i swung on him killed him with a glock with rip

hehe

[echo flower]

hell yeah

[vital oasis]

hit him in the chest then just sprayed the legs haha

[echo flower]

legs are the way to go with rip ammo

[vital oasis]

yeah it was so nice. getting better at combat

[echo flower]

I'm still getting used to aiming based on my ammo

[vital oasis]

more and more i play the more i like stealthy raids

sneak around sniping

[fervent swift]

This is the way

Sniping is so much fun in tarkov

Like damn

[vital oasis]

yeah makes me play more methodically too. and i like pistol combat too

[fervent swift]

Especially when you get to paint the wall behind them with their brains

[kind inlet]

does intel still spawn on reserve?

[versed valley]

i suck at sniping big time

[versed valley]

looks like its bugged

[kind inlet]

wow

[versed valley]

i mained reserve this and last wipe and no intel

[fervent swift]

I've found intel on reserve last wipe

[fervent swift]

Try to get your hands on a t5000 and m993

Shit's bonkers nice to use

[fair solstice]

just now realizing how accurate the hip firing is

[remote kettle]

i mean bullet comes from the barrel so yeah

[cobalt sluice]

reason why you should go to techlight

/ interchange

[cobalt sluice]

hipfired a guy near scav bunker on woods twice and then aimed in to get a 200k+ adar

finallyyyyyy

[fair solstice]

yea i just gunned a dude down from half the length of the bridge on customs i didn’t know the hip fire was so accurate in this game

[copper siren]

i found a scar in a scav run

wat do

[cobalt sluice]

Yeah its nuts

keep it

well

[fair solstice]

Dude was a level 11 wearing an osprey lol

[cobalt sluice]

if you know youre probably gonna die with the scav then sell it

scar*

[steep flame]

depends on the scar. if its 556 then meh but the 762 one is alright

[steep flame]

Ah you got the good one, nice

[cobalt sluice]

reason 13 why interchange techlight is good

finally did the farming part 4

[steep flame]

i havent had a gpu off inter in ages

[cobalt sluice]

Just go techlight

[steep flame]

dude

i know

[cobalt sluice]

it happens once every 15 runs

[copper siren]

im running the helicopter on reserve

[cobalt sluice]

im barely even lucky too

[copper siren]

and i keep getting richer

[steep flame]

im like 50 mil atm

[copper siren]

im at 700k

[remote kettle]

you literally posted that same image 5 minutes ago. in this same channel

[copper siren]

alzheimers

[cobalt sluice]

yes

[copper siren]

do i sell gun parts to the mechanic?

[cobalt sluice]

yes

atleast thats where i make the most

[copper siren]

money money money money money mothafucka

[echo flower]

where is tehclight?

techlight*

[cobalt sluice]

You know where oli is?

[echo flower]

ya

[cobalt sluice]

If you go through the front entrance

wait

[bitter aspen]

who should I help with the chemical task? prapor/therapist/skier? I really want the medicine case, so is therapist a good pick?

[copper siren]

question, does it matter if i buy the shotgun or get it at a raid for the first prapor quest

[woven plume]

are servers fucked or something my game keeps like freezing in menu

[echo flower]

same

[cobalt sluice]

the bumps are stairs

or escelators

[woven plume]

@echo flower i was just trying to sell some stuff and its been loading for like 3 minutes

[cobalt sluice]

best i could describe it

[fervent burrow]

Anyone wanna help me get some loot and a work bench?

[echo flower]

oh there I was looking at the map and forgot that the names of the stores along the edge were offset

i know where it is

[cobalt sluice]

Lmao

[echo flower]

up the stairs

[cobalt sluice]

i got 2 gpus so far from there

and a slick in a stash

[echo flower]

I've got 1 scav'ing the comps so far lol

[cobalt sluice]

comps?

[echo flower]

computers

[cobalt sluice]

ah

wait

i got 1 in a pc

[versed valley]

i found 5 already 3 from computers

[cobalt sluice]

and 2 in techlight

yeah interchange is the best scav map tbh

[remote kettle]

computers

[cobalt sluice]

For loot and money

1 from a pc and 2 from techlight

[woven plume]

what is usec first safe key

[echo flower]

lighthouse has been way better for scav for me

I just didnt know interchange so i went in as scav

[woven plume]

lighthouse might be better money

i pull like multiple bitcoins and gpus every raid

[echo flower]

as a scav?

[woven plume]

yes

or pmc

[humble pollen]

woods as scav is best for me

[woven plume]

people miss alot of loot on lighthouse

[echo flower]

havent seen a gpu on LH yet, but I've found multiple mpower cables, 1 mtube, btc, lots of tetris, virtex etc more GP coins than btc for sure everytime I spawn up by the resort it's empty

[woven plume]

theres gpus alot of the times in the cardboard boxes in the chalet and stuff

[echo flower]

the cardboard?! I always check the broken crates but I didn't know cardboard could

[woven plume]

broken crates have the bitcoins and skull rings and stuff

havnt seen a gpu in one of them b4

[orchid delta]

So i just got green keycard from scav case. The issue is, i was planning on never going on labs. Can't sell it on flee so not rly sure what to do with it.

[echo flower]

I've found aesa, virtex, vpx in the crates

[woven plume]

yeah ive found lots of those as well

[brave wagon]

Barter it off

[woven plume]

filled my scav case in like a day

[terse aspen]

i kept my keycard bc it can easily tripple value when you get better

[echo flower]

how much durability do the cards have?

[woven plume]

unlimited i think

[orchid delta]

oh wait i think i can sell it on flee theres just none up

[woven plume]

unless they changed

[orchid delta]

no idea what price

[echo flower]

I got a violet from the car on woods, but idk what to list it for or if I should hodl

[steep flame]

yeah but the tax is higher than what you sell it for. you have to barter it

and yeah they are unlimited use

[orchid delta]

what's the value of it?

[steep flame]

idk just look at the others

theres a lot of things people barter for it, just depends what you want

[radiant pumice]

Guys? Can NPC Scavs loot player bodies?

[unique steeple]

Yeah

[radiant pumice]

okay because this funny thing happened to me... this Scav guy was looting a body and I just went in on the action and started searching it and then BAM the Scav put a bullet in my head ... I am suspecting it was a player Scav, that's why I am asking... jsut to know in the future if looting scavs are a sign they are players

[unique steeple]

U can tell if it was a player scav in ur death screen

[echo flower]

were you a scav?

[radiant pumice]

yes I was

[radiant pumice]

can't really remember if it was or not also I am not sure what to check for

[unique steeple]

It was

[fervent swift]

The report button

[woven plume]

how do u know its player scav and not just normal scav?

[unique steeple]

Also U can check for the report button

[radiant pumice]

Yes the report button was there

[unique steeple]

Ai scav don’t shoot other Scavs unless ur rep is very low

[woven plume]

i meant like after u died

[unique steeple]

Oh ye

Report button

[woven plume]

didnt know there was way to check that good to know

[unique steeple]

Yea

[radiant pumice]

so if I had a report button then it was a player?

[unique steeple]

Yes

[radiant pumice]

that good for nothing piece of sh** =)))))

[unique steeple]

lol

[radiant pumice]

hit me in my forhead, dead on spot

[unique steeple]

Probably doesn’t care about his rep

[echo flower]

sometimes new players dont know, I've accidentally killed a few pscavs before because they got kitted out

[radiant pumice]

I hope the other Scavs got him after that

[echo flower]

and they were far away

[woven plume]

how can i spend alot of money on peacekeeper

[echo flower]

sdiaries is what I did if they're <31k

more efficient than buying USD with roubles in terms of currency conversion

[woven plume]

can i do any other things?

[unique steeple]

Why would u wanna do other things

[inland marlin]

you can sell stuff to him

[woven plume]

i just wanna do it fast i have 4.6m roubles

[inland marlin]

buy dollars

[unique steeple]

Buy dollars

[woven plume]

buying dollars counts as selling stuff?

[inland marlin]

jinx you owe me your soul

[unique steeple]

It counts as buying

[unique steeple]

Which also counts

[waxen scarab]

need alot of dollars anyways lol

[woven plume]

ok cool thanks

[unique steeple]

FUCK

Can’t have shit

[copper siren]

least sophisticated and confusing modded gun in tarkov

[deft dew]

You wouldn't tank the -0.1 rep if another player scav rudely started looting a body you found/killed first?
I mean you could have voiped to try to make a deal but it's good manners to just wait until he's done and see what's left

[cobalt sluice]

Killed a dude using VC asking for cowboy hats and killed him

Why

he said "dont kill me" i was going to be friendly but that sparked the fact that he has good loot

Dont kill me is the worst thing you can sya

say

it may be scummy but i was broke

under 1k roubles

and got no good loot

but the guy had good loot

[deft dew]

unless you're baiting and shoot as soon as you say that

[cobalt sluice]

Tru

but if youre near extract and say "dont kill me" to a group of three just proves you have good loot

[copper siren]

where does the xp you get from scav runs go to

does ur pmc get it?

[cobalt sluice]

I think im not sure

[copper siren]

how do i level intelect

[cobalt sluice]

im not sure

[past path]

No

Ur pmc has a separate level

[copper siren]

alright so what is there separate scav xp?

[past path]

Not sure but it should show you their level before each raid

[pure marsh]

Yes

[copper siren]

does that benefit my scav runs?

[past path]

Only gets u money and levels up your scav

Pmc always better tbh

Scav runs I only use for lab cards

[pure marsh]

Yes but not worth

[copper siren]

i dont have anything good yet, after im done with my classes i might go lfg and look for some people to help me quest and level my pmc

i just scav run reserve and get ~50k per

[pure marsh]

You should be getting way more

[copper siren]

im level 5 and my attachments dont sell for much

[hearty portal]

Got a question, what do I do with a red keycard now that they are banned, and I don't really like labs this early.

[remote kettle]

They arent banned

[woven plume]

what can i sell to skier so i can lvl him up

[deft dew]

weapon mods, some guns

[woven plume]

thanks

[hazy veldt]

Or you have a pistol a random rig and quest item.

But I'd lead with that, saying you're on quest X, might make people not kill you.

[cobalt sluice]

true

I got close and he knew i was trying something

He kept moving and i missed my first few shotty shots so with my m4 i sprayed him down

[pure talon]

you can trade it with someone for a btc or a gpu

[glacial moss]

trade it for alot of bitcoin xD

[cobalt sluice]

how do i make an adar automatic

[pure talon]

you don't, you need m4 lower receiver

[cobalt sluice]

which part is that?

[hazy veldt]

it's not a part, it's the core.

[cobalt sluice]

oh

[pure talon]

it's not the part, it's... exactly

[cobalt sluice]

how

[pure talon]

right click on the gun and select disassembly

[cobalt sluice]

then what

[hazy veldt]

you buy that

[pure talon]

then buy m4 lower and put remaining parts on it

[hazy veldt]

(remove operational only filter or go straight to the trader)

[cobalt sluice]

found it

ty

did it

[deft dew]

I still don't understand how that's not just an M4

[cobalt sluice]

same

[dusky geyser]

this includes armored rigs, right?

[deft dew]

yes, if you want to be extra sure it doesn't bug out you should drop your armor on the ground before taking the shot

instead of putting it in your backpack

[dusky geyser]

ah, that is much safer than i was thinking

just going into raid without armor

[hazy veldt]

Yes, but not MMAC afaik.

[cobalt sluice]

Help

banned from flea

i missed on accident

[pure talon]

it is an m4

[hazy veldt]

I think it's just a timeout?

[cobalt sluice]

From 800k to 210k

#factoryvictim

[idle locust]

guys is the server good rn or will i get dc'd after joining, saw some people bitching earlier tonight not trying to lose a kit to "backend issues"

[hazy veldt]

you're running to expensive kits for factory if you die that much.
But factory isn't really a money maker.

[cobalt sluice]

quest

[idle locust]

factory blows for money

[nocturne junco]

anyone else need to do delivery from the past? looking for a couple people to knock that out later today

[deft dew]

it just confuses me when people keep calling it an adar lol, yesterday someone said you can make an adar full auto when you put an m4 lower rec on it and I went like "isn't that just an m4?" and they went "no", uhhh okay

[bold kernel]

how can i open that screen? can you make your own custom weapons?

[hasty adder]

does anyone know the easiest way to get tremor for the headshots ?

[nocturne junco]

dehydration i believe? read that somewhere when looking up for the pain quest

[deft dew]

you need a workbench installed in your hideout, then you can rightclick any gun, click "modding" and you get that screen

[bold kernel]

οη οκ

oh ok* lol

[cobalt sluice]

workbench lvl1

[deft dew]

alternatively you can click "edit preset" and it will allow you to put any mods in the game that fit on the gun which you can then buy and assemble the gun
"modding" only lets you build the gun with the parts you have in your stash

[hidden zenith]

how do you get the 60 round mag for gunsmith part 4

[near birch]

hey guys, if i need to go on lighthouse to the water treatment, do i need to kill the roges every time ? or can i walk past them? im a USEC

[deft dew]

break a limb, best option is to get your arm broken by getting shot, not healing the fracture and immediately loading into factory
or break a leg, you can pop a pain and still move but you lose hp

[hasty adder]

@hidden zenith i believe you can only get it now from finding it or Peacekeeper lvl 3 barter

@deft dew cheers

[pure talon]

if you're playing in a group you can ask someone to shot you in an arm and break it just at the beginning of the raid, or before you extract (just make sure you don't heal the fracture before going in again)

[deft dew]

since I believe the quest items needed are inside the buildings, yes you'll need to shoot the rogues

[near birch]

uff okee, thank you :/

[pure talon]

they won't snipe you across the map, but if you come close they will aggro on you

[deft dew]

you barter the M4 with the mag from Mechanic LL2

if the wiki is up to date

[pure talon]

it always baffles me why instead of just looking up stuff on the wiki, people insist on asking others to that for them instead

[unkempt ingot]

how do i cancel a craft?

[pure talon]

and they said people from my generation was finding internet hard...

you can't

[deft dew]

some people just prefer to ask a person instead of spending extra time looking stuff up

[cobalt sluice]

Its faster to search unless in vc or someone is next to you

messaging takes long just search up

way easier

[marsh harbor]

I was told by a seasoned player not to turn in the flash drives for the skier quest

any reason why?

[cobalt sluice]

bruh

i did it straight away

[dawn geyser]

Not to turn into the trader for task? There's no reason not to do that, not one that I can think of

[random cedar]

I would turn it in lol

[cobalt sluice]

https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxg_6yHXVqyb_6Ca2tYkxf8m8FGnGZvG1r

[bold kernel]

i went to scavs and killed some of them, yet my contract still says that i haven't kill any

why is that? do i have to extract too in order to progress?

[smoky moth]

what quest is it?

[bold kernel]

kill 5 scavs and bring in 2 shotguns

[dawn geyser]

Did you do it on Customs?

Also did you do it as a Scav?

[bold kernel]

yes

[bold kernel]

yes i did

[dawn geyser]

You mustn't kill as a scav

It will drop your reputation

And you cannot do quests as a Scavenger

[bold kernel]

oh, oohhh

[smoky moth]

^

[bold kernel]

so, am i not supposed to kill people as a scav?

[smoky moth]

i hope you didnt kill an innocent player scav

[smoky moth]

yea, you're not supposed to

[dawn geyser]

You cannot kill other scavs as a scav

Well, you can but

[bold kernel]

oh

[dawn geyser]

There are penalties

[bold kernel]

well

well oof

[whole thistle]

Yeah and you can't do quests

[bold kernel]

F for me

[dawn geyser]

Paid extractions will get more expensive, and your scav timer will get longer and longer

The only quests you can do as a Scavenger are FIR world items (eg. Find Salewas, find shotguns)

But things like "Find the golden pocketwatch"

[smoky moth]

^

[dawn geyser]

Are quest specific spawns

Unique to you

[bold kernel]

:/

[dawn geyser]

It's okay! I'm sure you didn't drop it that far

[bold kernel]

so what am i supposed to do as a scav?

not kill anyone?

[whole thistle]

Loot

[dawn geyser]

You can kill PMC's, find loot

Just know, there will be ones that don't care about reputation at all as a scav

That's when it gets hard

[bold kernel]

but what i stumble upon an other player scav?

[smoky moth]

yes

[dawn geyser]

You hope he's friendly.

[smoky moth]

act friendly

wiggle

[rigid wind]

can scavs talk to each other in vc?

[dawn geyser]

Yes.

VOIP is enabled for scavs.

[smoky moth]

VOIP, yes

[rigid wind]

oh thats so cool

[bold kernel]

how do i know if they are a scav or a pmc?

[dawn geyser]

The clothes they wear

[bold kernel]

oh great

[dawn geyser]

It's going to be a struggle in the beginning

[whole thistle]

Clothes, if you can't tell the difference then just don't shoot anyone

[dawn geyser]

While you're learning

[rigid wind]

but scavs can have full camo too right?

[dawn geyser]

Generally not

Raiders yes

Scav boss guards yes

Inevitably, you may stumble across the occasional negative rep scav that doesn't care about anything. They have a 4 hour cooldown on their scav, load in, teamkill a playerscav

[rigid wind]

4 hours o.0

[dawn geyser]

Yeah the cooldown gets pretty bad.

[rigid wind]

how do i up my scav rating cus i got -.24 right now

[dawn geyser]

You can take the paid car extractions on Customs/Lighthouse/Interchange/Woods

[smoky moth]

car extracts, see what maps that you haven't explored

[dawn geyser]

Each will give you an initial +0.25

[smoky moth]

or just do 24 scav runs and extract

[rigid wind]

24 scav runs o.0

[dawn geyser]

^ Yes everytime you extract you get +0.01

[smoky moth]

its pretty ez

[dawn geyser]

Just do one of the paid extractions, you'll get to positive in just one extraction

[nocturne junco]

oh what I didn't know that, might do that later to boost my fence rating :0 do run throughs count?

[bold kernel]

:/ this game's hard

it hurts my brain

[dawn geyser]

Run throughs count

[rigid wind]

pretty easy they say

[nocturne junco]

thats sick

[dawn geyser]

Just know, the bonus is first time only

[rigid wind]

i get lost every play i do

[dawn geyser]

Each extration has its own ticket

So run it once, +0.25, run it twice, +0.12, three times, +0.06 etc

[bold kernel]

me too, i got some sick loot and was trying to extract, but i couldn't find the extraction point

[dawn geyser]

But then you change maps to Interchange and it starts with +0.25

[rigid wind]

yeah it sucks woods is hella confusing

[nocturne junco]

stick to one or two maps at first, use mapgenie and just run it offline / scav a bunch to learn it is what I did

[whole thistle]

Were you using a map?

[bold kernel]

i try to play as a scav but people tell me to not shoot, that's so hard, everyone else is shooting at me

[unkempt yoke]

how do you turn on the laser for the holosun again

[bold kernel]

yes, but i just can't figure out where i am at any moment

[whole thistle]

If you shoot a scav they'll all try to kill you

[rigid wind]

in was but the only landmark i saw was a powerplant and i couldnt find it on the map

[nocturne junco]

anything that shoots at you is either a traitor player scav, or a pmc

do NOT shoot player scavs or AI scavs

you're free to kill pmcs

[bold kernel]

:/

:///

[wicked quail]

the factory at the bottom corner?

[dawn geyser]

If you ever get lost feel free to drag a screenshot in here

[nocturne junco]

AI scavs will ignore you unless you've shot a scav in that raid

[bold kernel]

i am going to play as a scav again, will try to extract

[nocturne junco]

what map are you running?

[bold kernel]

what if a player scav shoots at me? do i kill them back?

[wicked quail]

offline runs worked well for me

[smoky moth]

if they hit you, you can start shooting

[wicked quail]

I do

[bold kernel]

i only play customs to learn the area

[dawn geyser]

You need to be hit first to avoid penalties

[nocturne junco]

just run tbh lol

[bold kernel]

ok

[dawn geyser]

A bullet zipping past the head does not count as a hit

[rigid wind]

dang customs is way harder than interchange imo

[nocturne junco]

ah i hate customs with a passion; my prefered scav map is interchange by far

[dawn geyser]

Opposite for me by far.

[nocturne junco]

im lv 12 I believe

[dawn geyser]

[smoky moth]

i play woods for the hidden stashes

[dawn geyser]

Too many dark corner rats

[smoky moth]

unlooted stashes

[bold kernel]

i came to this game from Hunt: Showdown, this is very hard

[nocturne junco]

yee but literally no one around as a scav don't think i've ever got shot in the past 10 scav runs and I just sprint through goashan and oli tech / tool box spawns LMAO

[wicked quail]

I always die in woods

[smoky moth]

i barely met anyone in woods unless i walk into USEC camp

[nocturne junco]

for pmc im pretty happy with woods right now, calm map

but stupid quests make me go factory or customs and i despise those maps

[smoky moth]

its lighthouse for me

and the killing ones that limit you to trash weapons

[wicked quail]

I get sniped frequently.

[rigid wind]

calm o.0 i got merced every step i took

[nocturne junco]

just gotta learn 'safe' routes on woods

i gotta farm scav kills later though will be interesting

[wicked quail]

I have a friend that has been taking me around, need a lot more time and he doesnt want to always be coaching me on woods lol

[rigid wind]

thats true i was in a usec camp apparently

[nocturne junco]

think i will just sit around scav house for a bit

[coarse valley]

Should i sell my ak's to buy better guns?

[wicked quail]

AK's can be good

[nocturne junco]

ak's are pretty good no?

[coarse valley]

which ones?

[marsh harbor]

AKs are good

[wicked quail]

youtube says the AK N, I use the AKu or UMP when I am going to try and do close quarters

[marsh harbor]

ammo is what matters

not the guns

[surreal parrot]

You all like the ADAR 2-15,
?? my scav had one and extracted with it yesterday

[marsh harbor]

ADAR is amazing

but, again ... ammo!

[wicked quail]

I picked up a few attachments and some ammo that works so good on the AKu

[marsh harbor]

AKU is an exception

[nocturne junco]

i've just been running the vepr with a couple mods, is like 60k and does me good

[marsh harbor]

that gun is bad

[woeful spruce]

modded aks with less than 70 recoil and for which you can have ammo with more than 37 pen are good, if you cant bring their recoil down or obtain good ammo sell them

[surreal parrot]

@marsh harbor good to know thanks

[marsh harbor]

AKM, AK103/5 are good

[wicked quail]

This, I got a wild MK17 build off someone and now that I am out of their top level ammo, it sucks

[coarse valley]

I tried to find the best ammo for my gun. I used the pestliy ammo tier list but its really hard to find what ammo goes to which gun and some of them are really expensive

[dawn geyser]

The calibers always show up at the top for the weapon

[smoky moth]

https://eft-ammo.com/nofoodaftermidnight

[surreal parrot]

@lusty yarrow what do you mean by the ammo comment on the ADAR? Hard to find ammo or ammo sucks or expensive or?

[nocturne junco]

caliber is all that matters

if you got an 7.62 gun just look that up

[smoky moth]

he's most probably talking about this one

[jaunty cliff]

All of the above

[surreal parrot]

Hahah ok

[dawn geyser]

Do not use 5.56 until you start crafting 856A1 or above

It is the very minimum for PVP

[jaunty cliff]

Even then 556 isnt very good, would recommend 762 or 308

[dawn geyser]

308 too stronk

[smoky moth]

is M855A1 not good?

[bold kernel]

https://mapgenie.io/tarkov/maps/customs'

this is the map i am using

[dawn geyser]

It's better than 855A1

[bold kernel]

yet i never know where i am

[smoky moth]

oh wait wrong ammo its M855A1

[dawn geyser]

I mean 86a1

[smoky moth]

bought a whole stock of them for my MDR loadout

[dawn geyser]

SAIAP>995>855A1>856A1

Keep in mind 856 is a tracer round

[unkempt yoke]

SAIAP kinda overkill

[woeful spruce]

its good enough ammo, its kinda equivalent to 5.45 bt and that works quite well usually

[dawn geyser]

SAI AP for sniping is cream

[smoky moth]

yea just gotta finish the peacekeeper quest to unlock the ammo and then you can do the peacekeeping quest that needs M4A1

[unkempt yoke]

can you buy m855a1 on pk or did they remove it

[jaunty cliff]

55a1 is probably better than 995 and ap this wipe

[jaunty cliff]

Pk4 and skier 4

[dawn geyser]

Most will just see pen values

[smoky moth]

oh shit skier 4 sells them?

[dawn geyser]

The ol' Igolnik vs BS war

[woeful spruce]

how so? its 36 dmg so at 100m it most likely looses 1 shot headshot potential

[jaunty cliff]

Neither, use 762 bp instead cause its not 545

[dawn geyser]

lol

[dawn geyser]

lol My minds still in 12.11

[jaunty cliff]

Noones mind should be in 12.11 worst wipe ever

[woeful spruce]

its absolute bullshit that you can survive headshots from ap rounds this wipe but it is what it is i guess

[dawn geyser]

Kind of silly

[hazy veldt]

Use M80 and just shoot them twice

[remote kettle]

sai is ass, deals like no damage

[remote kettle]

it will

[remote kettle]

you could last wipe too.

[dawn geyser]

Yeah, forgot about the changes they made

[thin lion]

can anyone help me with cult part 2 on customs

[keen viper]

Does the library and air filter unit also help with leveling my SCAV's skills?

[dawn geyser]

I do not think so.

[rigid wind]

what should i do with this? its kinda huge for in the pouch

[bold kernel]

how do I zoom in and out with scopes??

[austere hound]

Find it in the keybinds!

[glacial moss]

alt+rightclick

if that doesnt work you cant

[bold kernel]

0-0 really now

[bold kernel]

thank you

[austere hound]

Yeah not many scopes have alternate magnification if I'm not mistaken

[austere hound]

I'm js a lot of the default binds are a pain in the ass, imo. Changing them to something more convenient or looking up binds other people use for some inspiration is a life saver

[astral gorge]

Does anyone know how long battlestate support take to reply

usually*

[dawn geyser]

12hrs-14 days

Huge window I know.

[astral gorge]

interesting range lol

[dawn geyser]

Right now, looks like it's a bit backed up, I would expect above a week

Also might depend on your support request type

Related to billing?

[open hedge]

Hello gamers it’s been a while

[dawn geyser]

What's up cupcake

[astral gorge]

not really

bought an upgrade but got nothing

[dawn geyser]

Yeahhh~ I would consider that billing, unfortunately like the forums say (I'm sure you've seen me post there)

Just have to wait on your support ticket.

[astral gorge]

fair enough

its been 4 days so hopefully soon

[open hedge]

Sometimes they say due to bugs upgrades can take up to a week but there hasn’t been many issues with it recently

[dawn geyser]

02/03 and 02/04 morning were the issue windows

[open hedge]

Well I guess this game just decides to not work sometimes

[astral gorge]

i mean

when i open the launcher my game edition says its upgraded

idk its weird

[dawn geyser]

Yeah that's the case for everyone that upgraded during that window

[open hedge]

Is it just that gear that’s not there or is the stash not upgraded as well?

[dawn geyser]

Everything, only the name has changed

[open hedge]

That’s bizarre

Normally that only happens during twitch drops

[dawn geyser]

It's whenever the servers take a poop

[astral gorge]

apparently resetting fixes but yk

[dawn geyser]

Nawww not worth it

[open hedge]

Resetting is often not worth it

[astral gorge]

ye exactly

[open hedge]

It’s only worth it imo if you are under lvl 10

God yesterday I got jaeger 4 and I can finally stop using .50bmg slugs as knockoff ap20

[bold kernel]

what are ground caches and how do i get them?

[frozen monolith]

Stashes?

They're in every map except labs and factory

Hidden in bushes, corners n shit

You can look up guides and where to find them

[bold kernel]

what do they contain?

[edgy ledge]

mapgenie shows them and shows photos of locations

if u click them

[frozen monolith]

Currently they are dynamic

[edgy ledge]

roughly

everything

[bold kernel]

ok

[frozen monolith]

Meaning you can find any item in game if the storage supports it

Every item except keys

[bold kernel]

oh

cool

[edgy ledge]

oh didn t know there were no keys

[frozen monolith]

You can find body armor, helmets, guns

[frozen monolith]

Yep, every item in game besides keys and gl40

And .338 technically

Because it can't fit in any stash

[edgy ledge]

can it spawn containers?

fridges ammo cases docs?

[frozen monolith]

Not sure

[edgy ledge]

never found one and i ran them all the time last wipe

[frozen monolith]

At the moment, I think the only way to obtain .338 is marked rooms and the quest off jaeger

They might be Able to spawn in weapon crates but personally I've never found one

[edgy ledge]

is it lapua magnum ammo?

[frozen monolith]

Yep

[edgy ledge]

caliber

i found 10 in stash

last wipe

[dawn geyser]

Is that wholesome trollface?

[open hedge]

Containers do not spawn in caches

[edgy ledge]

yep before

...the incident

[dawn geyser]

lmfao

[open hedge]

[edgy ledge]

society hit him kinda hard

[frozen monolith]

Stashes got buffed this wipe imo

[bold kernel]

do PMCs have anything more when they die? i heard that they have like a pouch or smth

[dawn geyser]

Trollface played too much Tarkov is what happened.

[frozen monolith]

Yeah you can't loot it tho

[edgy ledge]

they have dogtags

[frozen monolith]

It's completely locked and private to that pmc onlu

[bold kernel]

ok

[open hedge]

The dog tags can be used for barters and for collection

[frozen monolith]

That's the secure container

[bold kernel]

how do i know if i have killed a PMC?

[edgy ledge]

oh and container and unlootable melee weapons

[open hedge]

Dog tags confirm who killed them

[bold kernel]

do all PMCs leave dogtags?

[edgy ledge]

melee weapon is unlootable and dog tag

[open hedge]

Yes

[tall thicket]

They will have ??? at the kill screen with faction as BEAR or USEC.

[bold kernel]

ok

[tall thicket]

If you pickup their dog tags, their names will be visible at the kill screen with their username.

[tall thicket]

They have loot. All PMCs that die will lose all gear they have on them except for their container, armband, and melee sheath.

[frozen monolith]

And their little melee

[tall thicket]

Sheath slot is melee.

[frozen monolith]

Damn my internet is bad lmfao

[open hedge]

Well in theory if someone is hacking they can take your melee but the person who’s melee is taken still keeps it

[frozen monolith]

Yeah ik

I sent it before you edited

[tall thicket]

Ahh, gotcha.

[frozen monolith]

My internet is shit lol

I remember a few wipes ago you could take someone's melee off their body and they would still have it in their stash

So you could have an infinite amount of m2 swords

Shit was so funny

[open hedge]

Well this wipe when I was a lower level with only a key tool my friend (who quit the game) gave me his sicc case docs case all his shoreline and reserve keys and his red rebel

That man literally changed my life

Until next wipe

[bold kernel]

i am allowed to kill scavs as a PMC right?

like, all of them?

[dawn geyser]

Yes.

[open hedge]

Yes

[bold kernel]

ok thx

[smoky moth]

KOS, ez

[dawn geyser]

Except for Santa. But he's a remnant of the past.

A deep dark past.

[bold kernel]

who's santa lmao

[open hedge]

I’ve never killed Santa

[open hedge]

You best be joking

[dawn geyser]

Santa was around in early January

If you killed him you would lose mad reputation

[bold kernel]

hahaha lmao

[bold kernel]

😳

[smoky moth]

christmas event last 2 months ago, a friendly scav that drops you items and exchanges stuff if you drop him something, killing him results in -1 rep

[dawn geyser]

I went from 3 to 0.17

I'm still recovering from the damage

[warm needle]

Plsss help i cant do shit in this game

[open hedge]

Cope

[warm needle]

Cant

no more copium

[open hedge]

Damn

[smoky moth]

i only killed 2-3 scavs as a scav due to me not knowing scav karma and fearing people running around me, got to -0.20 rep if i remember

[austere hound]

Try copamine

[open hedge]

Well if you really feel directionless and you have no friends you can always ask a sherpa

[hard arch]

are you able to cheese the cold blood quest by queueing with a friend?

[open hedge]

No

[hard arch]

rip

[open hedge]

Killing teammates doesn’t work

[dawn geyser]

There are ways though

[warm needle]

who?

[open hedge]

It’s a group

#sherpa-info

[dawn geyser]

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[bold kernel]

the extraction points without question marks are open, right?

[open hedge]

In most cases

Reserve can be tricky though

[dawn geyser]

Some without question marks require a friendly scav, some extractions require certain triggers

Some require a specific scabbard and paracord

[formal sentinel]

just gave myself a hernia from coughing, which meds do i use for that?

[open hedge]

Painkilllers

Or fix the caused injury

[split dagger]

Only stems

[open hedge]

Stomach chest and head cause it

[dawn geyser]

Anything that gives a Remove pain effect

You need splints for fractures, CMS/Surgery kits for blacked out limbs

[formal sentinel]

i mean irl
💀

[dawn geyser]

.. Huh?

[open hedge]

Use low doses of radiation

[dawn geyser]

You're asking for medical advice in the Tarkov discord?

[open hedge]

Use cheese

Maybe preform self surgery

Some ibuprofen

[formal sentinel]

just a bit a stitching right, i got this

[open hedge]

Yeah and if that doesn’t work just take random green Syringes and hope when is a magical regeneration one

[open salmon]

do i keep gp coins?

[open hedge]

They have a few good barters

[carmine shore]

bruh what

i ran into reshalla without realising and killed him with tap fire ump

[dawn geyser]

[carmine shore]

the rest of the raiders shit on me though

[dawn geyser]

Nice going~

o

[carmine shore]

i couldve killed them if i realised smh

[open hedge]

Rashala himself is kind of pathetic it’s his guards that can spook you

[carmine shore]

ye i used 5 shitty ump bullets and killed him

i just thought it was a group of player scavs

i never play customs so i have no idea of the spawns or shit

ah well 1 scav run can buy that kit back

[open hedge]

I’ve grown to hate customs tbh

I like pvp but customs is just a annoying environment for it

[frozen monolith]

I have -16 rep because of him

I am a wanted felon in the scav community
