[prime comet]

i've got the 56a1 and plenty of the stuff

[hidden violet]

don't go all out on an m4 unless you're at least using 55a1

[strange jay]

this

[hearty magnet]

yeah its usually about 15-20min but I make like 600-1mil every run : )

[crimson fern]

try OLI next time 😉

[hidden violet]

bruh mall is a death trap
im not going near that shit with a five seven

[hearty magnet]

it just becomes easier with higher scav karma cause after looting village you can just extract at dead end

[willow star]

i been running resever lately for my scav and cooming out with 600-1mill per run pls raider gear aswell is that any good ???

[crimson fern]

OLI storage is not that crowded and has alot good loot in it which is overlooked

[hidden violet]

its getting their is the problem

i get confused when in the mall, I cant see shit cuz it's so dark

and then I have to get out

[crimson fern]

you gotta learn in at some point eventually 😄

[hearty magnet]

change post fx and turn up gamma

[hidden violet]

yeah I would do that if it didn't drop me to negative 15 fps

[merry swift]

You dont need hp to head eyes either

Ps also onetaps head

[strange jay]

well for most shots it's at least 30 dmg to armor

2 shots u zero out their armor

hp does basically one tap

[merry swift]

Thats not how it works mate

[crimson fern]

depends on armor class and material

[merry swift]

Thats just the damage that the armor absorbed

[crimson fern]

also distance

[hearty magnet]

some armor just eat your bullets

[merry swift]

Durability =/= damage received

[cold jewel]

what was that?

[strange jay]

im talking lvl 3 and below

[merry swift]

Hp doesnt pen lvl 3 either

[prime comet]

a pmc?

[cold jewel]

some random scav shot at me and my leg and then i think i got sniped in my back?

[crimson fern]

you killed someone but didnt have their dogtag at the end

[prime comet]

that's who you killed

[hearty magnet]

^

[strange jay]

i know hp doesnt pen, thats what the PS is for

😄

[merry swift]

Either way very few people run t3 or lower at this point

[prime comet]

before you heal your player, you can see what hit and killed you

[cold jewel]

i was a scav

[prime comet]

i remember i got hit by 5 different types of ammo on loothouse before i died before

was wild

[merry swift]

I mean aight dude. You dont have to take this from us. Go load up that sks with half hp's if it makes you happy

[cold jewel]

yikes 5 insurances returns

[strange jay]

i am lmao, it's just seems to of been working

[hearty magnet]

i remember when a cheater unloaded his entire clip of shrimp bt into my tagilla mask in 1 second

[hidden violet]

a guy that you killed
if you don't extract with their dogtag then it shows up as question marks

this hurt my rubles

[hearty magnet]

standard user?

whyd you wait so long to upgrade it

[merry swift]

Rogue cosplay

[strange jay]

24 hours omfg

that hurt my mortality

[cold jewel]

how cani turn a weapin in my stach?

[hearty magnet]

what

[bronze spoke]

Press R while holding it with cursor

[strange jay]

whachumeanbydat?

[hearty magnet]

oh rotate

[strange jay]

DID YOU NOT READ THE 203 PAGE PDF THAT CAME WITH TARKOV!?

jk there is no pdf, but there should be

[willow star]

is it to late in the wipe to start the bit coin farm to make profit ???

[bronze spoke]

It's actually pretty common between games with inventory management to hold and press R to rotate stuff

[strange jay]

honestly? who gives a fuck. itll give u a bit of passive income every time u log-in, so why not do it

[willow star]

but would i make more money buy selling my 8 gpus rn

[tame shard]

probably

[strange jay]

idk the market price for gpu, but id imagine it's fairly marked up.

[willow star]

its around 480k i think rn

[strange jay]

income is income, rather u wanna do that in the short term or longterm is up to you

480k not worth it imo

[trim quiver]

Just started playing tarkov, i hear that if you kill Scavs as a scav you get negative scav karma, so if i get a mission to kill scavs should i only do it with my PMC ?

[brittle canyon]

yall ever just

[prime comet]

yes

[trim quiver]

ty

[merry swift]

Definitely for the higher levels, maybe T1 filled with X amount of GPUs is going to turn a profit

[prime comet]

the kills wont count from your scav killing scavs anyway

[merry swift]

I'd just sell the cards tho, I havent bothered with the farm at all this wipe

[willow star]

yea its my first wipe just need to know if its worth it or not at this point

[merry swift]

You could calculate but I'd not bother.

[prime comet]

probably not

i started 3 weeks ago and i've put like 7 mil into my hideout

and nothing great has come from it yet

[merry swift]

Just sell the cards/use em for quests IMO

[cold jewel]

wheres the difference between this 2 bullets? both is 7,62x39mm?

[merry swift]

I mean some hideout upgrades are very good

You can make some decent money off some crafts and being able to make FIR stuff for quests is great

[willow star]

i havent been questing just straight pvp and im lv 24 so i dont rlly know whats good to do or not

[merry swift]

Damage/pen. PS has more penetration power than the T round. But the T round is a tracer if you like that.

[brittle canyon]

name, appearance, dmg, pen, velocity, tracer, price, etc

t45 isn’t good

[prime comet]

anyone wanna do a reserve run?

i'm tryna learn it and i have some keys i wanna use there and not sell

[merry swift]

Honestly they're virtually identical though. The difference between PS and T45 are rather minor

[prime comet]

wanna get use from these before i sell em on the flea

[willow star]

tbh the keys kinda trash

i have those ones and havent gotten anything good from them

[prime comet]

i mean, i still wanna learn reserve

[willow star]

i love the map if u wasnt on eu severs i would help u main map i run

[prime comet]

see i mainly run lighthouse/woods atm

[willow star]

i still need to learn loothouse

[proven basalt]

Whats a Ratchet Wrench for & why is it 76k

[willow star]

i hate woods every time i go i get killed at usec camps

[merry swift]

I got some quests on reserve, haven't touched the map at all this wipe. Could come.

[prime comet]

i'm down

if you know the map that is

i dont wanna be running around half chad but blindly lmao

[merry swift]

Yea I do. This is like my 4th wipe

[prime comet]

i'll be running this

with a new helm

[merry swift]

beginners #13

[hearty magnet]

Half chad?

[cold jewel]

where can i get a spark plug?

[rigid light]

toolboxes and duffle bags

and caches

everything spawns in caches

should i sell my salewas i have like 8 of those

[hidden violet]

ur just gonna get tapped

I wouldn't run full geared until you have map knowledge and know how to pvp

but you do you

[cold jewel]

is this old gas station?

[hidden violet]

thats new gas

[cold jewel]

where am i then?

[remote kettle]

It vendors for that much, keeping the price + its needed for gpu craft

[remote kettle]

New gas…

[cold jewel]

on this map?

[hidden violet]

he is not at crack lmao

[prime comet]

i'm decent pvp wise

[proven basalt]

I didn't draw that lol

[hidden violet]

well if you think so than gl
but you will probably just be outgunned and lose your kit
no point insuring it either beucase there's a 99% chance that someone will take your stuff

[proven basalt]

I just use it cause its decent

[hidden violet]

why just paste a random customs map

if hes asking where he is

[proven basalt]

cause it was better than the one he was using 😅

[cobalt sluice]

found the best map for roubles

[prime comet]

you dont win anything if you dont risk anything

[remote kettle]

Mapgenie > other maps

[cobalt sluice]

10 minute raid while camping 5 minutes because i heard 4 people running

[hidden violet]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1dPcu2PLdA

[prime comet]

we're not pestily

[hidden violet]

nice

[prime comet]

or lvndmark

[remote kettle]

My five seven would like to disagree

[hidden violet]

and?

[prime comet]

if i was as good as him i'd stream and not work for a living

[hidden violet]

I use five seven on interchange and can get up to like 1.2 mil per run

[remote kettle]

Loothouse?

[hidden violet]

if nothings contested

and i dont run into anyone

[cold jewel]

f me having 15hours in the game and still cant tell the difference between pmc and a bear

saying hello im scav friendly to a bear is maybe not the best idea...

[remote kettle]

Bear is pmc…

[cold jewel]

i mean scav sorry

[remote kettle]

Ah

[austere glen]

Dont worry

[remote kettle]

Yeah 15h is nothing

[strange jay]

usec, bear, scav.
usec, bear = pmc

[austere glen]

i have over 350 and do the same

[remote kettle]

Youll learn it with time

[cold jewel]

he was completly black

[unkempt ingot]

what is insurance cost based off?

[cold jewel]

but i still didnt shoot him

[cobalt sluice]

100%

[remote kettle]

Cost of items. More expensive to vendor = more expensive insurance

[austere glen]

The esiest way to tell for a new player is if they have a lot of good stuff its 95% of the time a pmc

unless its a scav that ran raiders or rouges

[unkempt ingot]

didnt know they added animals into tarkov

[remote kettle]

If their jacket/pants have some bright colors its a scav. Most pmc clothes are either white, black, blue or green

[austere glen]

^^^^^

[frigid thorn]

is it better to focus on one map in the beginning until you master it? are you missing in anything by doing so?

[remote kettle]

They didnt..?

[cold jewel]

is this good stuff to go in with?

[austere glen]

for a starter

yeah not bad

obv the gear isnt amazing but it will get the job done

[remote kettle]

At least to the point where you can comfortably manouver it. Mastering a map takes a long time, and you don’t want to fall behind on quests

I would start with customs, then getting into woods

[copper sphinx]

Good or bad

[remote kettle]

As most early quests are there

[austere glen]

what lvl are you

[cold jewel]

3

[cobalt sluice]

total cash money from 5 min looting lighthouse chalet

[austere glen]

oh so you're fresh fresh

[cold jewel]

yes and pretty bad

[cobalt sluice]

this is your sign to go lighthouse night time

[austere glen]

hey dont worry

[remote kettle]

Use win+shift+s to take a screenshot, then pasta with ctrl+v. Way better quality, i can hardly see

[austere glen]

380 hours lvl 35 and i still am bad

[agile spire]

Whats the best Map for begginers?

[remote kettle]

Everyone is bad starting out

[copper sphinx]

Yeah i know keep forgetting soory

[cobalt sluice]

None, do quests

[remote kettle]

Customs and woods for quests

[austere glen]

What i'd say is for an easy map to start learning is maybe woods

[cobalt sluice]

dont do lighthouse quests yet tho

[agile spire]

k thx

[remote kettle]

Yeah all good, send one now and ill check. I cant rly see the mods on it

[cobalt sluice]

I prefer interchange to learn

[austere glen]

and the map you want to really learn is interchange for money runs

[cobalt sluice]

after flea market is unlocked run lighthouse

[copper sphinx]

I have hardly done quests lmao

[cold jewel]

is there a way to put the mrs scope on the weapon?

i hate playing with ironsight

[remote kettle]

Which one is the mrs?

[frigid thorn]

I heard shoreline is good for money

[austere glen]

shoreline great for money

[cold jewel]

on the right of the weapon

[austere glen]

but full of high gears

[remote kettle]

Easiest would be bastion from skier with the cobra sight

[remote kettle]

Oh yeah bastion rail from skier

Replaces dust cover and rear sight with a rail so you can mount that sight

[cobalt sluice]

Lighthouse night time. Run to chalet then loot then run. Trust me i only run it once every 4 times or 5 but get out each time

[cold jewel]

this one?

[remote kettle]

Yes

[austere glen]

yes

[copper sphinx]

Good

[austere glen]

then you can put a sight on that

[copper sphinx]

Or bad

[austere glen]

i dont like it

but if it works it works

[copper sphinx]

Damm

[remote kettle]

Needs a stock but other than that its alright

[austere glen]

yeah^^^

also to anyone new

[copper sphinx]

Reserve scav

[austere glen]

dont feel like you have to learn how to spray your gun

[copper sphinx]

Some dude just took the stock and ran

[austere glen]

tapping is the best thing you can do sometimes

[astral gorge]

btw pst ammo is better

[copper sphinx]

Scav

[astral gorge]

fair enough

just if u were to use it as a pmc

[copper sphinx]

Also im out of space

[remote kettle]

Probably the stock used for most meta builds

[austere glen]

im not sure what rules are on video posting in this channel but if you need someone entertaining to watch and has p good tips i threw a vid in #videos

[cold jewel]

ok im going in wish me best of luck :0

[copper sphinx]

I have so much of this is it good

[unkempt ingot]

m855 is bad

[copper sphinx]

Damm

[remote kettle]

Best you can get, but not really

[unkempt ingot]

doesn't even pen class 3 iirc

[copper sphinx]

Should i go labs

[unkempt ingot]

are you rich?

[copper sphinx]

Well

Yes but im dumb

I dont have a vlue what im doing 👍

[unkempt ingot]

labs is very risky, but very rewarding

[copper sphinx]

I dont know exfils

I just know db and pray

[remote kettle]

Check your total value of items in stash on the overall screen

[unkempt ingot]

try running some offline raids to learn the map if you wanna run labs

[copper sphinx]

I can do that !!

On labs

[remote kettle]

If you have a card

[copper sphinx]

Wooo

[remote kettle]

You wont lose the card running offline, but you need to have one to get in still

[willow star]

dose it use the card tho for offline raid

[remote kettle]

Nah

[willow star]

nvm

[copper sphinx]

Is the thing above acurate

[unkempt ingot]

yes

[copper sphinx]

For cost thing

Cause mine is wild it keeps foing up and down randomly

Is it for flea

[willow star]

i think im sittiing around 26mill in overal stash value is that good or bad my buddy thats been playing for 5 wipes is only at 10 mill aned this my first wipe

[remote kettle]

Stash value is How much every item in your stash costs, If thats what youre asking

[copper sphinx]

Time to see

[remote kettle]

What level are you at?

[willow star]

24

[remote kettle]

Yeah thats good

Im 29 with i think 37 or 38 mil

[copper sphinx]

About 600k worth of loot so good for me

[willow star]

all i do is run resever tho and do gunsmith task lol

[unkempt ingot]

i'm on 30.7 with 11 million cash

[willow star]

oh i only have like 1.3 mill cash

i just been debating on if i should buy a ledx or farm ultra med to try and get on for med lv 3

[agile spire]

i have 50k lmao

[willow star]

but interchange is scary lol

[copper sphinx]

This good

I love camping factory exfil

[remote kettle]

I just hit 12 mil cash 😎

[remote kettle]

Devil behaviour

[copper sphinx]

Yup

[unkempt ingot]

you don't really get the drop on someone when camping factory exfil

you just end up having a gunfight

or you die to a prefire

[copper sphinx]

The strat it for gate three first door if you do the move ur body to the left thing u can see through a crack so you can see the loot before you shoot to determine where the worst gear is you can also see teamates if there are any 🙂

Right

Not left

[hearty magnet]

Wtf in my stash is making mine so high

[surreal wedge]

what's the best way to do punisher 4? can't seem to run into anybody on resort or anywhere else

[willow star]

my stats are trash ngl

[serene reef]

first wipe?

[willow star]

yup

[serene reef]

nah

imo they're above average

[rigid light]

help me i am stuck in the eternal cycle of getting money to but containers to have space in stash

[willow star]

first wipe and first fps on pc been a console player all my life

[cold jewel]

perfect getting killed by a camping 3 player scav team...

[serene reef]

please do remember that performance in this game is vastly dependent on knowledge not as much on pure skill and talent?

[hearty magnet]

good for first fps on pc

[serene reef]

if you know what i mean?

[serene reef]

xD

[hearty magnet]

i wouldn't recommend tarkov as a first fps tho lol

[serene reef]

what's your pmc to loot to heal exp ratio?

[hearty magnet]

go play cs or something before tarky

[serene reef]

i meant surv not heal

[willow star]

wdym

[cold jewel]

how can i repair a broken leg?

[serene reef]

cms or surv kit

[cold jewel]

damn

[serene reef]

unless you mean fractures

[remote kettle]

Splints, grizzly or surv12

[serene reef]

then any splints like normal ones or alu

[cold jewel]

i had splints alu splints bandages everything...

[serene reef]

surv also repairs fractures

[cold jewel]

yeah but i was slow af

[remote kettle]

If its blacked cms or surv like @serene reef said

[serene reef]

if you're low lvl and alpha

[willow star]

do u mean xp gain ??? for each

[serene reef]

then most of the time walking speed will have to do 😂

[serene reef]

no i mean the actual ratio

of what your exp you gathered so far consists of

lemme show

need to load up the game though

[remote kettle]

Thats new. I usually see people comparing loot and kill xp

[serene reef]

well that'sjust because they wanna prove a point

im objective

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hearty magnet]

😎

[serene reef]

just curious to see if its 1:1:1

1:1:5 kill

or like 1:1:5 loot xD

surv would prob mean just camping/questing most of the time

avoiding people

that's funny too

[remote kettle]

My kill and loot is like the same. Kill slightly higher. I have No clue about the other ones

[willow star]

nthe only time i try and avoid peopel is when i have a task to surive a map like my weekly i been working on just dont know custom well i have to survie 15 time for more then 1.5 mill of value in loot

[serene reef]

That's good ^^

[serene reef]

i feel you

i had to surv shoreline? or was it reserve?

18? times

for like 2mil xD

or more

[willow star]

like i was showing a budy of mine resever and i was hunting pmc whiel teaching him the map

i jsut hate customs tbh

[hearty magnet]

labs is fun if you dont run into cheaters

[willow star]

but need to get thsi done or imma hate my self

[serene reef]

i got a quest on lab

surv twice and i got a labs armband xDD

nowadays i havent played the game too much and took it super easy only looting

so my looting is slightly higher

but mid my progress someone poked me to see

[hearty magnet]

how is that 1.5 mil of loot

[serene reef]

and i think my looting exp was sooo much smaller than the kill exp xD

[hearty magnet]

thats like 500-600k

[willow star]

that plus my other task it ads up

[serene reef]

ummm i forgot where eft ss'es are

[hearty magnet]

documents

[serene reef]

There!

[hearty magnet]

👌

[serene reef]

this kinda stuff xd

[cold jewel]

whats that weapon and scope he plays?

[hearty magnet]

was that a daily

[hearty magnet]

m1a and one of the eotech hybrids

[remote kettle]

M1a. Scope is dookie imo

[hearty magnet]

sass m1a better

[cold jewel]

i think thats weapon is pretty dope

[serene reef]

m1a anyway

one of its variants

the cheap one

[remote kettle]

Thats what, 700k?

[remote kettle]

Stock one

[serene reef]

that was back when it was MORE expensive

[hearty magnet]

theres a doper version of the gun

[remote kettle]

Sass best m1

[hearty magnet]

love m1a

[tame shard]

sass is pretty low tier tbh

[remote kettle]

Looks

[serene reef]

sass is not a bad weapon either 😂

[trim quiver]

how do i buy stuff from a trader ? i fill the items but then idk how to buy it

[serene reef]

fill then deal

[remote kettle]

Click the fill thin bottom middle

[serene reef]

On the bottom you have to click fill / fill auto

and then the DEAL button on top ^^

[trim quiver]

yes, i do that but nothing happens

[astral gorge]

is checking the two mansions or whatever they're called the best way to scav lighthouse?

[serene reef]

do you have enoughmoney ^^ ?

[astral gorge]

i've been doing that and its decent but not amazing

[serene reef]

show a screenie

[trim quiver]

well it fills the required items but it doesn't buy it

[serene reef]

alt prt scr

and ctrl v here

[trim quiver]

yea i do

[hearty magnet]

you can go kill the rogues

[remote kettle]

Or win shift s

Post an ss and we check

[serene reef]

they're mostly hit before you scav prob

best way to play light (dont quote me not that much of a lighthouse player)
is to loot where you spawned and keep going north

[astral gorge]

depending on where i spawn i sometimes go over there

its just risky

[serene reef]

rogues are actually pretty easy after all the adjustments imo

[astral gorge]

depends how many there are from my experience

a few on their own is fine

but ive found groups of 5 or so befre

[serene reef]

well that's why you kill the outpost and that one hmg on the front and loot them xD

[cold jewel]

can you loot in offline mode?

[astral gorge]

no

[cold jewel]

or is it just for exploring

[astral gorge]

well u can but you wont keep anyway when u extract

[astral gorge]

good point

[cold jewel]

ok do i have unlimited time

[astral gorge]

na

[astral gorge]

its like a normal raid

just no enemy pmcs

[serene reef]

i dont remb the rest of the rooftop rogues

[cobalt sluice]

dad?

[astral gorge]

and you dont lose/gain anything

[astral gorge]

cheers

[serene reef]

and

the middle rogues

are actually patrols

so they move around

mostly approx that's what i've seen

but once again i might be wrong

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[cold jewel]

what is this place called?

[serene reef]

Military outpost

adjust your POST FX btw unless you adjusted a lot on eg nvidia panel

that's one GLOOMY game

just for comparison for colors

[astral gorge]

scav has reset now so ill go and take a look

[serene reef]

EU ?

[astral gorge]

wdym

[serene reef]

are you playing on EU or NA servers

[sleek kernel]

Looks like regular Tarkov to me to be honest. Not everyone is into the high saturation.

[cold jewel]

thanks where is it on a map?

[astral gorge]

EU

[serene reef]

Ikr? same as people play mc on moody and BRIGHT

[sleek kernel]

Certainly good thing to point out so they can decide though 👍

[serene reef]

one sec

[serene reef]

wanna play together perhaps ^^ ?

[serene reef]

somewhere here

[cold jewel]

damn i really need some map knowledge

[astral gorge]

literally just loaded in sorry

i'll do another in 15mins tho if u wanna then

[serene reef]

i play both scavs and pmcs if you're down

[bold kernel]

Is it better to buy a LEDX or try my luck with ultra medical?

[willow star]

right i have the same question

[cold jewel]

what can i adjust to make it better looking?

[serene reef]

Load into a game (offline match?) and click postfx

[cold jewel]

yes but what is gloomy for you? to unsharp or

[serene reef]

then you can click visualize to be able to see live what your changes would look like

gloomy as in dark and colorless

[astral gorge]

sure ye

what the fuck

[serene reef]

dark is pog, immersion

but not necessarily pvp optimal for me at least

and saturation is just meh i hate dark things

[serene reef]

ikr?

[cold jewel]

isnt this crossroads?

[serene reef]

it might be bad ammo

[serene reef]

sniper roadblock

you're between crossroads and dorms

[serene reef]

but the 60rounders and their armor is POG

[vagrant cargo]

[serene reef]

you can even rarely but still find hexgrids on their bodies

[cold jewel]

god dang i have absolutely no map knowledge

[serene reef]

Hi there :D

[serene reef]

comes with experience

[vagrant cargo]

China

[bitter venture]

I just killed tagilla, and his armor is totally broken, should i repair it and use it for 50k or just sell it

[serene reef]

after hundreds of hours on customs i can traverse the map in my imagination and i dont think that's good xD

[serene reef]

dont sell it to traders it isnt gonna be worth it

that t6 armor used tosell on flea for

200k ?

240k?

what was the price?

180 ?

lots

[bitter venture]

so you suggest me to repair and use it then?

[serene reef]

you gonna repair it before selling 50k and sell it for what?

80k ?

100k ?

that's only 50k

and its t6 armor

[bitter venture]

alright

[serene reef]

using it might save you

besides one thing i learned after first wipe

is that everything you collect will be GONE

like the more you play the less value it haves

this amazing god tier ak you picked up

after you're lvl 30? 40?

will be totally garbage and a caliber you will talk shit about

so its better to use items asap

when their value is still the best

just like the t6 rig

[bitter venture]

alright, thank you

[serene reef]

imo its better to have an empty inv than an inv full of hexgrids and use t4s

[agile spire]

is anybody down to do a customs raid? im lvl 3 and i cant talk atm

[serene reef]

try your luck where more people are searching i'd say #lfg-info

but no mic is a dealbreaker for most

[agile spire]

k ty

[serene reef]

communication is one of the MOST important things in tarky

[cobalt sluice]

Lighthouse is the best map for mone

[serene reef]

it used to be even better

atm its arguable if its the best

its good, yeah

[vagrant cargo]

who cares they’re almost all pretty good

[serene reef]

but is it the best?

[cobalt sluice]

Yeah for money

[vagrant cargo]

even on customs I make 1mil raids decently often

how is there so much moonshine

[cobalt sluice]

5 minute raid looting only chalet,

[serene reef]

ig yeah

[unkempt ingot]

how do i escape glass tunnel on factory?

[serene reef]

lighthouse has huge potential towards loot and fast extract

[vagrant cargo]

run out towards office and from there try to survive lol

[serene reef]

run towards the extract

[cobalt sluice]

11 minute raid

[serene reef]

towards office

[cobalt sluice]

again only chalet

[serene reef]

just dont hesitate and do it asap

[serene reef]

thats pretty shit if you ask me xd

[vagrant cargo]

yeah I was gonna say

[cobalt sluice]

True but 11 mins?

[serene reef]

for lighthouse

[vagrant cargo]

this isn’t like

particularly great

[serene reef]

obv its not bad

but i do believe you can do better

its really just a question if you want to set some kind of record

or you want to have fun

if you're optimizing loot routes like that

do you even need #beginners-assistance ?

like ya'know

[cobalt sluice]

Wait

[serene reef]

peopleare gonna think that's easy and then burn their hands on trying the same 😂

[cobalt sluice]

i just noticed im in beginners

My bad

[serene reef]

nwnw sweetie < 3

[cobalt sluice]

I mean once you unlock flea

its a good idea to go here

[serene reef]

tbf?

im lvl 40

and i havent played much lighthouse

except for when i wanted more rogue guns

night + vpo with AP-M

[cobalt sluice]

all i do is open merin then run to chalet and extract

[serene reef]

if you have a decent spawn

[cobalt sluice]

Yeah

if im on east side

doing that

if somewhere up north west

no

[serene reef]

:)))))))

[cobalt sluice]

thats the map i use too

[serene reef]

reddit maps are superior to mapgenie imo

[cobalt sluice]

made this much

[serene reef]

just clearer

[cobalt sluice]

yeah

only if im doing quests

then no

[serene reef]

if i were to play this game

6? years ago?

i'dprob be a labs / lighthouse main

making 10mil a day or smthn

[frozen mesa]

anybody know any good atachments for the starting M4?

[vagrant cargo]

Labs mains 🤓

[serene reef]

but im barely competetive anymore so i just have fun

i think that's just the better way to playgames

[vagrant cargo]

None M4 is hard to use unless fully modded and unless u have good ammo not worth using

[serene reef]

there's none really

its super bad + you cant get good ammo till almost late game

[vagrant cargo]

Average drum mag pb enjoyer

[serene reef]

Tbf i kinda wanna start running vss with only sp6 orsp5

but i kinda want to run snipers/dmrs

but then i end up running what i get from enemies 😂

cause i feel comfy with most weapons

free kit is a free kit

[cobalt sluice]

dude

[serene reef]

my first wipe i killed a full chad running altyn/slick because i quite literally appeared behind him

with a scav loadout

[cobalt sluice]

people on lighthouse are so bad

especially at night

[serene reef]

with an adar with no sight? a cobra?

xD

[vagrant cargo]

It works great

[cobalt sluice]

i had a flechette shotty, 2 dudes, 1 dead, and the other one just ran inside and got blasted

[vagrant cargo]

That might be a Poland thing man idk

[serene reef]

NAh

[cobalt sluice]

American servers

polish servers dont exist

[serene reef]

more so it's about time of the day

you prob ran into 9y olds xD

[vagrant cargo]

Every lighthouse player I see is kitted to the teeth

[cobalt sluice]

level 30

2 leels less

then me

[serene reef]

nah that's maybe 1 player half of the time

[vagrant cargo]

How are yall so fucking lucky

[serene reef]

people just hatchet run lighthouse

cause they want big gains little risk

[vagrant cargo]

The only map i ever see non geared ppl on is customs

And even then there’s lots of juicers

[serene reef]

the only place i seen geared people is customs 😂

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah there’s a lot but on customs I still see some low levels occasionally

Rarely but it happens

[serene reef]

idk maybe cauts its a starting area?

have you thought about that?

xD

[vagrant cargo]

On the other maps though I only ever see lvl 40s

Yeah I fucking know

[serene reef]

are you surprised ?

we're what

4 months?

[vagrant cargo]

You’re saying no one is geared on other maps

[serene reef]

into the wipe ?

[vagrant cargo]

Which ain’t true

[serene reef]

i said

seeing

ME

[vagrant cargo]

yeah cool we ain’t having the same experience whatever

[serene reef]

im not saying other maps dont have juiced guys

and imvery so much aware its luck based

and server based

and time based etc

but personally iMOSTLY play customs so

im most of the time on hotspots when im not feeling rusty

then we just play king of the hill :D

[unkempt ingot]

what's the best muzzle device i can get at level 2 traders?

[serene reef]

gun?

[tame shard]

if i kill my friend ingame will it count towards friend from the west kills?

[remote kettle]

No

[tame shard]

source?

[remote kettle]

Everyone

[unkempt ingot]

the thing that goes on the end of the barrel

[remote kettle]

You can try If you want, it doesnt count group kills

[tame shard]

that sucks

[limber notch]

3

[vagrant cargo]

🤓

[serene reef]

12.12

13.03

idk i see 4 months there

[limber notch]

Was it on the 12?

[vagrant cargo]

You still haven’t done that ??

[limber notch]

Pretty sure someone said we are about 85 days into wipe last week or so

[tame shard]

no

[serene reef]

is nobody gonna talk about how i said its still 4 months?

[tame shard]

no

[vagrant cargo]

90 days

aren’t

4 months

[limber notch]

90/3 = 30. Avg month is 30 days. Thus 3 months

Wait

Did you count december as month 1 💀

Dec- Jan (1) , Jan-Feb(2) , Feb - March (3)

[frail anvil]

Time to go chaddin on customs cuz I have to kill 5 pmcs in dorms

[tame shard]

low level activities

[astral gorge]

https://medal.tv/games/escape-from-tarkov/clips/e9lzGVHn0Hqyt/d1337cTTzWkL?invite=cr-MSx0TjYsOTUyODYyOCw

why do i play this game

i shouldve just immediately lasered the guy

[tame shard]

deserved for playing p90 tbh

[rigid light]

should i keep collecting pompon hats

[tame shard]

no

[rigid light]

elaborate

[tame shard]

you don't need them for anything

[rigid light]

ok but not from the practical standpoint, should i continue collecting them?

[shell hull]

how do you get fence rep up?

[tame shard]

no

unless you want to of course

[astral gorge]

p90 is huge

just not when im using it

[bold kernel]

Is there a better map site than mapgenie?

[unkempt ingot]

tarkov.help

i think it's better

[bold kernel]

They're both missing a weapons crate I always hit.

[remote kettle]

Imo mapgenie is the best

[frail anvil]

Car extracts, duo extracts and just extracting as a scav

[bold kernel]

Agreed.

[rain wing]

is the MCX any good?

[remote kettle]

Lots of horizontal recoil. Decent in cqc

[rain wing]

aight

[smoky moth]

tested it before, the recoil is kinda horrible at long range

[quaint quarry]

It's much better this wipe compared to other wipes, but I wouldn't say you should buy it over any other gun that does the same thing. Scar and M4 both do it's job but better

[shell hull]

thank you

[vagrant cargo]

I love how it’s second best ammo has only 34 pen

Really smart yknow

[foggy pier]

P90 is the second most ideal weapon to prove accuracy via volume of fire (PPSH is first)

[quaint quarry]

I'd argue Glock 18 with drum mag is a fine choice as well :P

[sterile veldt]

what is this shit

lmao

[bold kernel]

I found a valuable when I had a scav loadout like that... Ended up just killing a fellow scav for the backpack.

[vagrant cargo]

a cool gun

[bold kernel]

bah

[sterile veldt]

i hate this gun

[cobalt sluice]

It has too much recoil but its good

[tawdry siren]

just did a rat run, not on purpose but i went to do rogues but had a bad spawn, got a bitcoin and intel and shoved it up my ass

[cobalt sluice]

tbh

i have NEVER found intel

[tawdry siren]

i didnt for ages, but the last 2 times i checked the cinema at lighthouse i found it

and twice on labs

[dusky geyser]

which one of these has the clearest image?

[sterile veldt]

can i do the woods jaeger quest where i gotta store iskras and waters as a scav

[dusky geyser]

dont care about having a helm / monocle FOV

[tawdry siren]

nah has to be as PMC

[sterile veldt]

damn

[tawdry siren]

but its pretty easy to do, u just gotta run a shegmah and avoid fights

[violet furnace]

n-15, but u cant have helmet with them.

[rain wing]

damn I really need to get ap ammo

[violet furnace]

what caliber?

[rain wing]

.45

shit actually slaps

hard

[dusky geyser]

it looks amazing lmao

thanks

[rain wing]

also

do presets carry over?

[violet furnace]

u can also go rip, 3 tap in stomach, 4 in legs

[rain wing]

after wipe I mean

[tame shard]

what ak does it go on

[violet furnace]

nope

[feral hearth]

does anyone wanna run interchange wit me i got all the keys for it

[rain wing]

5.45 iirc?

[tawdry siren]

the pain of getting a shotgun scav like 19 times in a row

[rain wing]

😩

[tawdry siren]

do a linked search, and check weapons

[rain wing]

ak-74n

[dusky geyser]

all except for 74U

[rain wing]

@tame shard

[rain wing]

this

I think

[tame shard]

i just tried to put it on a ak 105 and didn't work

[dusky geyser]

all the long-barrel ones

[rain wing]

5.45 ak

[dusky geyser]

so no AKS / short 100 series

[tame shard]

ahh

[rain wing]

not aks/100

yeah

[dusky geyser]

it will fit on a 101 or 103 for example

[sterile veldt]

well uh

i ended with a pilgrim

[bold kernel]

I ended up with a 90k scav run -_-

[dusky geyser]

running interchange stash on pmc rn

0 gunshots

[bold kernel]

I'm about to do the same. I never see anyone except for highway scavs.

[dusky geyser]

hs'd one power station scav and that's it

[sterile veldt]

i only got that backpack because some random player scav started shooting me

[bold kernel]

lucky

[sterile veldt]

i shot him, he was laying on the ground and not moving when i pushed him

i realized i didn't actually kill him yet

[bold kernel]

i should have tried to suicide in mall

[sterile veldt]

he was bleeding with his thorax almost dead

i hit him 300 when he had barely any armor

most prob in his stomach the rest in his thorax

[rain wing]

rip

[charred axle]

can someone guide me thru woods once again

killed another chad

hello

[bold kernel]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[idle jackal]

Looking for some help learning customs, (eastern US)

[bold kernel]

How does this work? In raid for 15:32 and killed scav at 16:18? Did that one just bleed out?

[vagrant cargo]

@cobalt sluice

[smoky moth]

holy shit yeah i've been wanting to ask this too

[vagrant cargo]

Prolly bled out idk

[slate quest]

aren't these good?

[frail anvil]

yes

[slate quest]

what do they do

[frail anvil]

used in a barter for bitcoin

[slate quest]

oh from who

[frail anvil]

therapist i think

[slate quest]

oh ok

thanks

[frail anvil]

np

[limber notch]

I think its mechanic

Not sure

[frail anvil]

one or the other

can also be sold on flea separately

[vagrant cargo]

Which is dogshit and never worth it

Meant to reply to @frail anvil

The barter is doodoo

[limber notch]

Wtf green bat is almost 200k

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah

Literally just flea them

[frail anvil]

dont mind him he hates himself so he takes it out on the game

[limber notch]

While I don’t necessarily disagree with your prev point,I agree that the barter isnt worth it

[bold kernel]

how can I get the rsass for this? im level 22

[vagrant cargo]

Unironically how can the barter be worth it when green bat is worth 0.75 the value if physical btc

[frail anvil]

if its found in raid yes

if crafted thats a different story

[limber notch]

Crafted is fir

[vagrant cargo]

💀💀💀

[frail anvil]

yes i know that

[vagrant cargo]

then you should still flea it ??

[frail anvil]

i meant legit found in raid

[limber notch]

I dont follow

[vagrant cargo]

How does that change anything

Both are FiR

[frail anvil]

each to their own bud

[vagrant cargo]

Both are more worth on flea

[limber notch]

Maybe if you put in container and u die then sure

[frail anvil]

buy off flea or found in raid via airdrop

[limber notch]

Rsass has a spawn somewhere in resort if you want to waste time looking for it

[vagrant cargo]

It’s literally more profit to just sell them what do you mean

[bold kernel]

its not on flea

[vagrant cargo]

Pk3 barter

[frail anvil]

^^

you need 16 dogtags for that barter

[delicate leaf]

game is os unplayable rn

so

the ammount of campers this morning

[slate quest]

i dont have flea yet

[delicate leaf]

isane to me

[frail anvil]

8 bear and 8 usec that are equal or above lvl 15

[vagrant cargo]

Keep them then

The barter is shit

[limber notch]

Should I barter for my 3rd docs or sell lion?

[frail anvil]

do you need a 3rd docs?

[limber notch]

No but 100k for a lion seems low

[frail anvil]

its 100k now?

[limber notch]

Yeah

[frail anvil]

damn

that thing skyrocketed

[bold kernel]

Found one last raid lol its in a military box on east side

[limber notch]

Wait u need lions for scav case no?

[frail anvil]

i think so

[limber notch]

Military box have random chance. I mean it has a fixed spawn somewhere

Like physical spawn

[bold kernel]

Yeah it was inside a box not like lootable

Do you understand me

[limber notch]

Oh

[frail anvil]

you mean the one in hideout?

[limber notch]

Yeah might be it

Yes hideout one

Yeah u need 4

[frail anvil]

ye you need 4 lions, 6 skull rings, 8 gold chains, 4 rolers, 3 moonshines and 1 scav junk box

[limber notch]

Damn thats kinda expensive

About 3 mil

[frail anvil]

that also requires intel center 2

but for that you need medstation and nutrition unit 3

[limber notch]

I just got bitcoin farm completed so im good

[bold kernel]

Those are easy

[limber notch]

I spent 4.5 mil on gpus yesterday

Will save some money before I make scav case

[bold kernel]

Why

[frail anvil]

most my shit in hideout is lvl 2

[snow ether]

anyone help with some tasks on here?

[frail anvil]

which one'

?

[bold kernel]

can i lose my compass?

i got from Prapor after a quest

[frail anvil]

no you cant

[limber notch]

Wdym?

[bold kernel]

oh good

[slate quest]

what does the guitar pick do?

[snow ether]

corporate secrets and seaside vaction

[frail anvil]

streamer item can be sold on flea

or to therapist i think

[slate quest]

how much on flea

its 34k for therapist for me

[frail anvil]

34k on flea

[slate quest]

oh ok

what about weapon safe key

[frail anvil]

7k

[slate quest]

does it go to anywhere useful

[frail anvil]

not sure

never had it

[keen breach]

It's barter only according to the wiki for a 30mm Scope mount

[frail anvil]

seaside vacation you have to visit a house on the beach near south exfil

near where you have to run towards lighthouse quest and come back

[snow ether]

problem is idk the map 😦

[keen breach]

Lighthouse

[frail anvil]

practice offline

[limber notch]

Find a map online

[keen breach]

or pull up map on second monitor^

[limber notch]

^

[snow ether]

will do thank you 🙂

[keen breach]

Also for the record Corporate Secrets is a bit difficult since you have to go into the rogue base, so you may want to hold off on it until you've got a good set and know how to deal with rogues

[surreal wedge]

is the general strategy for punisher part 4 to rush resort?

[frail anvil]

i havent even done that yet

[limber notch]

Isnt pp4 needed for bp unlock?

Like that quest unlocks it no?

[wide sedge]

I think u need to finish punisher

Yeah

[limber notch]

Hmm

[wide sedge]

Part 4

[limber notch]

Oh ok

I dont even have pt1 yet

I slack on quests so much

Eod carries my ass

[wide sedge]

As a standard player

I just need to get to lvl15

[rigid light]

hell yeah

[wide sedge]

So i can upgrade my hideout

[limber notch]

Yeah that helps a lot

[tribal coyote]

you can upgrade it whenever you want even at level 1 but it can be hard to find everything you need for it

so the flea helps a lot

[prime comet]

i feel that

[tribal coyote]

also its prapor 3 but you need punisher 4 done

you could also craft it at level 30 with workbench 3

[limber notch]

Yeah tnx

[sterile veldt]

somehow ended with 3 full dur guns

[outer panther]

is dorm room key 308 good lmao

[sterile veldt]

you can find monz

lol

[outer panther]

idfk what to do with it

[bold kernel]

so somehow i got myself an smt
any idea what i can do with it?

[smoky moth]

flea market or peacekeeper

good item with good price

[bold kernel]

ok, but peacekeeper only gives me $, and he only gives weapons

[cobalt sluice]

?

[bold kernel]

can someone tell me the basics of weapon modding?

put a sight on it

[vagrant cargo]

are you rich now

[stable island]

what night vision should i get

or whats lik budget night vision

[smoky moth]

would you rather sell it to fence for roubles?

[split dagger]

is mapgenie not working for anyone else?

or jsut me

[smoky moth]

you get less than peacekeeper

[stable island]

same

[smoky moth]

peacekeeper buys intelligence related items

[split dagger]

alright

[smoky moth]

more than flea market offers

just realized i lost profit

🗿

[stable island]

lol

rolled

[bold kernel]

and where can i get the $ converted to rubles?

[smoky moth]

you can't

[split dagger]

you cant

buy dollars are used for a lot of meta builds

[smoky moth]

you'll eventually need more dollars to pay modding stuff

[split dagger]

so its a good investment for your future self

[smoky moth]

so hold onto it

[split dagger]

so many people complain how they cant buy black card and i got it first try from trader menu

[bold kernel]

i have many weapons and stuff, but i have no idea what modding is or what is compatible with what
help

[split dagger]

do you have weapon modding in hideout

or whatever it is called

[smoky moth]

do you have flea market and workbench 1?

if not, you basically have no access to full weapon modding yet

[bold kernel]

nope, not even flea market bc i only play as scav

[smoky moth]

you better do some of your quests

[split dagger]

you are over thinking it just play the game and do your quest

youll get everything eventually

[bold kernel]

and how do i even get mp133´s?

[split dagger]

jaeger sells them

[bold kernel]

so i can just buy it and hand over to him?

[split dagger]

yes

[bold kernel]

ok

[split dagger]

if it doesnt state that it has to be found in raid u can get it from traders flea etc

if it says find in raid you either have to find it or craft it

[junior kiln]

Thats one of the intro Prapor quests right?
Damn, I thought I had to find them lol

[bold kernel]

yep

problem is that i have to trade it

[junior kiln]

Hows that a problem?

Oh you mean a barter

[bold kernel]

i cound sell my drive and power bank and get 1

[smoky moth]

from scavs

[dusky geyser]

any good?

oh god fucking

[split dagger]

its decent

i got btc form it

[bold kernel]

but most of the time i only get ak versions from those

[sterile veldt]

can we just make ratting bannable or something

it's impossible for me to see some fat ass sitting in a corner blending in with a wall

[snow spruce]

Anyone available for some reserve assistance?

[bold kernel]

grenades

[sterile veldt]

If I knew where he was he would be dead

unless i have 8 grenades i can't clear a whole ass yard

[bold kernel]

theres always someone there in tarkov

[sterile veldt]

I've only been killed by snipers or rats and it's so dumb

every time i get on a 1 on one fair engagement i shit on them

but if it's someone sitting in a corner with a bullet that costs more than my entire gun it's sort of impossible

[stable island]

is there a way toi fiix when loading is stuck on a rig

infinite search

[wide nebula]

whats a good SA-58 build?

[dusky geyser]

bushwookies and ex-campers are the two worst types of campers but i can say that cache-running while watching a movie is nice

[sterile veldt]

yea woods is fun when you're a scav

not as a pmc

[humble otter]

Can’t do much about ppl bush camping or rat-ing… it took me a while, but it’s about map knowledge and to know where they’re prob gonna be waiting for u
